The 1996 DEP Sessions

The 1996 DEP Sessions is a collaborative studio album by English musicians Tony Iommi and Glenn Hughes, released through Sanctuary and Mayan Records in 2004.

Material for The 1996 DEP Sessions was originally recorded in 1996, and was circulated among fans as a bootleg recording dubbed Eighth Star: on this recording, two of the final tracks were missing, while a cover of Jethro Tull's "To Cry You A Song" (mistitled "Shaking My Wings") was included, though it does not feature Tony Iommi. The album title reflects the fact that the tracks were recorded in the DEP International Studios in Digbeth, Birmingham.

The album's drum tracks were originally performed by Dave Holland, formerly of Judas Priest and one-time bandmate of Glenn Hughes in Trapeze. After Holland was convicted of attempted rape in 2003, Iommi had the drum tracks re-recorded by Jimmy Copley prior to release to prevent the album from having any association with a sex offender.

Ministers without portfolio in Ontario, 1993–1995

On February 3, 1993, Ontario premier Bob Rae appointed six ministers without portfolio in the Ontario government.  These were not full members of cabinet but rather provided policy assistance to cabinet ministers. They were generally described as "junior ministers."

The only one of the original six ministers without portfolio who was assigned a specific job responsibility was Richard Allen, who oversaw international trade. The others did not have formally defined responsibilities. Some opposition politicians argued that these positions were unnecessary and duplicated the responsibilities of parliamentary assistants.

The positions were eliminated in 1995 by the government of Mike Harris.

Minister responsible for Economic Development
Richard Allen held this position from February 3, 1993, to August 18, 1994, when he was promoted to a full cabinet position. His replacement was Bob Huget, who served until June 26, 1995.

Minister responsible for Finance
Brad Ward held this position from February 3, 1993, to June 26, 1995, providing assistance to Finance Minister Floyd Laughren. He was given responsibility for overseeing public pre-budgetary consultations in 1994.

Minister responsible for Culture, Tourism and Recreation
Shirley Coppen held this position from February 3, 1993, to October 21, 1994, when she was promoted to a full cabinet position. Her replacement was Irene Mathyssen, who served until June 26, 1995.

Minister responsible for Health
Karen Haslam held this position from February 3 to June 14, 1993, when she resigned to protest the Rae government's Social Contact legislation. Her replacement was Shelley Wark-Martyn, who served until June 26, 1995.

Minister responsible for Municipal Affairs
Allan Pilkey held this position from February 3, 1993, to June 26, 1995.

Minister responsible for Education and Training
Shelley Wark-Martyn held this position from February 3 until June 17, 1993, when she was reassigned as Minister without portfolio responsible for Health. Her replacement was Mike Farnan, who served until his promotion to a full cabinet portfolio on October 21, 1994. Farnan, in turn, was replaced by Steve Owens, who served until June 26, 1995.

Other
Chief Government Whip Fred Wilson was also designated as a minister without portfolio in February 1993. His responsibilities were distinct from the other ministers without portfolio, and he was not considered a "junior minister."

Tsetse (nuclear primary)

The Tsetse was a small American nuclear bomb developed in the 1950s that was used as the primary in several US thermonuclear bombs and as a small stand-alone weapon of its own. 

The Tsetse had a boosted composite core which used 2.25 kg Pu-239, 1.4kg U-235 and 6g tritium. The nominal yield was 10 kilotons. The design was shared with the UK where the anglicised version was known as Tony. The difference between Tsetse and Tony was in the high explosives used. The UK considered the PBX 9404 too shock sensitive and replaced it by EDC-11. This reduced the nominal yield to 8.5 kilotons. 

The Tsetse primary was used in the US B43 nuclear bomb, W44 nuclear warhead, W50 nuclear warhead, B57 nuclear bomb, and W59 nuclear warhead, according to researcher Chuck Hansen.

After deployment of the B43 two problems were identified in the primary. In 1961 Los Alamos scientists concluded that the primary was not one point safe under all conditions. A long series of tests was needed to develop a safe version. The second problem was related to tritium aging. To investigate a lifetime extension of the B43 an aged B43 was fired. The test resulted in half the yield. This was quite a shock as it affected not only the B43 but all similar weapons. The solution was to more frequently replenish the tritium supply.   
This problem was apparently shared by the Python primary designs.

Characteristics of these weapons are:

Based on this information it can be assumed that the Tsetse design itself corresponds to the size of the W44 warhead,  diameter and  long, with a weight of around .

Stadium House, Cardiff

Stadium House () in Park Street, Cardiff, Wales, is the third tallest building in Cardiff, Wales, which stands next to the Millennium Stadium. The  tall building is owned by BT Group, and underwent a £7.1 million refurbishment programme in 2002.

Construction
 
Work started on the building in March 1974 and was completed in 1976. The building is now clad in white and blue, while the roof is topped with a  stainless steel spire, which was lit up green and white in the evening, to complement the cladding. The addition of this spire qualifies the building as the tallest in Cardiff and Wales, at , if the spire is included. This building is also an internet exchange point.

The building is clad in a composite material. Numerous incidents of the cladding falling off the building have resulted in adjacent roads being closed.

A Smile and a Ribbon

"A Smile and a Ribbon" is a song with music by Mark McIntyre and lyrics by Robert Wells. It was recorded by 1950s music act Patience and Prudence (McIntyre's daughters). It appeared as the B-side of the single "Tonight You Belong to Me" in 1956.

The song is featured in the graphic novel Ghost World and its film adaptation.

V40 Mini-Grenade

The V40 fragmentation grenade was manufactured in the Netherlands, and was in service in the Canadian Forces and the US Armed Forces.

The V40 grenade is spherical in shape,  high, and  in diameter - approximately the size of a golf ball. It has a safety pin and safety lever with a safety clip attached to the safety lever.

The steel body of the grenade has 326 squares pressed into its inside face to produce
separate fragments when the explosive fill is detonated. The V40 weighed  and was issued primed from the manufacturer. Fuse delay time was four seconds.

This grenade was considered lethal up to a radius of  and dangerous up to  from point of impact. It was commonly referred to as the Mini-Frag.

Due to its small size, a considerable number could be carried; however, its small size also made the weapon dangerous when wearing gloves, as the impact of the striker on the primer was difficult to feel. These grenades were in service from the late 1960s to at least 2008.

Dhuni

A dhuni is (according to the Indian religions such as Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, etc.) a sacred site represented as a cleft in the ground. This cleft is emblematic of the yoni or female vulva and generative organ. A dhuni therefore represents a site of worship dedicated to Shakti.

The dhuni (or dhunga) is also a term used in Indian cuisine to describe the process of cooking food by placing smoking charcoal into the finished dish.

Honoring the dhuni
Sitting by the dhuni is believed to "purify one's vibrations" and to have beneficial impact on physical and mental health.

Yan Rou

Yan Rou () ( 193–220) was a military general of the state of Cao Wei during the Three Kingdoms period of China. He previously served under the warlord Cao Cao in the late Eastern Han dynasty.

Life
Yan Rou was from Guangyang Commandery (廣陽郡), which is around present-day Beijing. In his childhood, he was abducted by the Wuhuan and Xianbei tribes in northern China, so he grew up among them and gained their trust over time. In 193, the warlord Gongsun Zan murdered Liu Yu, another warlord who had much prestige in northern China and among the Wuhuan and Xianbei. Liu Yu's son, Liu He (劉和), gathered his father's former subordinates such as Xianyu Fu (鮮于輔), Qi Zhou (齊周), Tian Chou and Xianyu Yin (鮮于銀), and enlisted Yan Rou's help in taking revenge against Gongsun Zan. They fought a battle with Gongsun Zan's forces led by Zou Dan (鄒丹) near the Chaobai River and defeated and killed Zou Dan along with 4,000 enemy soldiers. In 199, the warlord Yuan Shao also sought Yan Rou's help in building friendly ties with the Wuhuan tribes in northern China.

In 200, during the Battle of Guandu, the warlord Cao Cao, who controlled the Han central government and the figurehead Emperor Xian, contacted Yan Rou and appointed him as Colonel Who Protects the Wuhuan (護烏丸校尉). After Cao Cao defeated Yuan Tan at the Battle of Nanpi in 205, Yan Rou led the Wuhuan and Xianbei leaders in the region to pledge allegiance to Cao Cao. In recognition of Yan Rou's contributions, the Han imperial court awarded him the title of a Secondary Marquis (關內侯). Cao Cao also highly favoured Yan Rou and treated him like a son.

In 206, Yan Rou accompanied Cao Cao on a campaign against the Wuhuan tribes in You Province and served as his guide. Cao Cao defeated the Wuhuan tribes and the warlords Yuan Shang and Yuan Xi at the Battle of White Wolf Mountain in the following year. After the victory, Yan Rou managed to convince all the Wuhuan leaders in You and Bing provinces to submit to Han rule. The Xianbei chieftains Budugen and Kebineng also sent their sons as hostages to Yan Rou to convince him of their allegiance. When Tian Yin (田銀) started a rebellion in Hejian Commandery (河間郡), Kebineng led 3,000 horsemen to assist Yan Rou in suppressing the revolt.

In 220, after Cao Cao's son Cao Pi usurped the throne from Emperor Xian and established the state of Cao Wei, he appointed Yan Rou as General Who Crosses into Liao (度遼將軍).

Family
Yan Rou had a younger brother, Yan Zhi (閻志), who served as the Administrator of Shanggu Commandery (上谷郡; around present-day Yanqing District, Beijing). When the Xianbei chieftain Suli (素利) was under attack by other Xianbei tribes, Yan Zhi led military forces to help him.

Norm Shinkle

Norman D. "Norm" Shinkle (born 1950) is an American Republican politician from the U.S. state of Michigan and was a member of the Michigan Board of Canvassers.

Biography 
Shinkle holds a BA from Michigan State University and a JD from the University of Toledo. Admitted to the State Bar of Michigan, his practice is located in Williamston.

Shinkle was elected to three offices in Monroe County, Michigan including Monroe County Commissioner, Bedford Township Supervisor, and finally the Michigan State Senate. After serving in Senate Leadership, Shinkle was appointed by Governor John Engler, a Republican, to serve as chief judge of the Michigan Tax Tribunal. After leaving the tax tribunal Shinkle ran for other judicial offices, but was not elected. He is deputy chairman of the Michigan Republican Party and a member of the Michigan Republican State Committee.

On April 26, 2012, Shinkle, serving on the state elections Board of Canvassers, along with co-Republican Jeffrey Timmer, voted to reject almost a quarter million voter signatures for a ballot initiative to repeal the Michigan Public Act 4 — Michigan's Emergency Manager law. The two Republicans rejected the petitions, saying that the "font size was not 14 point", despite testimony from the printer that it was. The Republicans ruled that the font size of the letter "N" was smaller than required by state law, thereby invalidating the signatures.

On June 21, 2022, Shinkle resigned from the state elections Board of Canvassers, citing a time-consuming campaign for a seat in the Michigan House of Representatives.

2020 election denial 

On November 23, 2020, as a member of the four-member Michigan Board of Canvassers, Shinkle abstained from certifying the state's 2020 presidential election results, despite the fact that Joe Biden won Michigan by more than 154,000 votes, all 83 counties in Michigan had certified their results, and there was no evidence of wrong-doing.

Shinkle's decision to abstain from certifying Michigan’s election results came after Donald Trump made false claims of fraud in the 2020 election, and efforts were made by Trump allies to get Republican election officials to not certify the results in key states Trump lost. Tim Alberta of Politico described Shinkle's decision to abstain as "a cowardly abdication of duty."

Norm Shinkle’s wife, Mary Shinkle, supported legal efforts to overturn Michigan’s election result. She filed an affidavit in support of a Trump campaign lawsuit alleging voter irregularities in Wayne County, including that poll workers had been “rude” and didn’t allow her to look over their shoulders as they processed ballots. The lawsuit was dropped in late November 2022.

A fellow Republican on the Board of Canvassers, Aaron Van Langeveld, ultimately gave the decisive vote to certify Michigan’s election results. Joe Biden was inaugurated on January 20, 2021.

Inferential programming

In most computer programming, a programmer keeps a program's intended results in mind and painstakingly constructs a program to achieve those results. Inferential programming refers to (still mostly hypothetical) techniques and technologies enabling the inverse. This would allow describing an intended result to a computer, using a metaphor such as a fitness function, a test specification, or a logical specification, and then the computer, on its own, would construct a program needed to meet the supplied criteria.

During the 1980s, approaches to achieve inferential programming mostly involved techniques for logical inference. Today the term is sometimes used in connection with evolutionary computation techniques that enable a computer to evolve a solution in response to a problem posed as a fitness or reward function.

In July 2022, GitHub Copilot was released, which is an example of inferential programming.

Antonio Filippini

Antonio Filippini (born 3 July 1973) is an Italian football coach and a former player who played mainly as a defensive midfielder, currently in charge as head coach of Genoa Women of Serie B.

He played in several teams with his twin brother, Emanuele, and spent most of his extensive career with Brescia, amassing Serie A totals of 303 games and 12 goals over the course of 11 seasons.

Football career
Filippini was born in Brescia. Having emerged through hometown Brescia Calcio's youth system he stayed there for eight professional seasons, after having started – on loan – with amateurs Ospitaletto, the first of many teams he shared with his sibling Emanuele. The pair made their Serie A debut on 31 August 1997, in a 1–2 away loss against Inter Milan.

In January 2004, Filippini moved to the Serie B with U.S. Città di Palermo. He was crucial to the Sicilians' promotion, with 21 matches in only five months.

After a solid campaign with S.S. Lazio and a year with lowly Treviso F.B.C. 1993, Filippini signed with A.S. Livorno Calcio on a free transfer in 2006, being rejoined by Emanuele (also his teammate at Lazio and Treviso) the following year and helping the side return to the top flight in his third season, with 24 matches and one goal.

Filippini rejoined Brescia's for 2010–11, after 18 years. Following the team's top level relegation, he retired in June 2011 at the age of 38.

Coaching career
On 25 June 2012, it was announced that both brothers would join lower league club FeralpiSalò as youth system coordinators.

He successively served as the head coach of Lumezzane in 2016, then managing Serie D club Trento from November 2017 to March 2018.

In November 2019, he was appointed assistant coach at Livorno. On 8 March 2020, with the club at the bottom of the Serie B league table, he was promoted to head coach, replacing Roberto Breda. He was dismissed following Livorno's relegation to Serie C at the end of the 2019–20 season.

On 29 March 2021, he was hired by Serie C club Pro Sesto. He was sacked on 19 September 2021 following a negative start in the 2021–22 Serie C campaign.

On 3 January 2023, Filippini was announced as the new head coach of Genoa Women of the Italian women's football Serie B league.

Brown tanager

The brown tanager (Orchesticus abeillei) is a small South American bird in the tanager family Thraupidae. It is the only member of the genus Orchesticus.

The brown tanager is about  in length and weighs about 31.5 g. As suggested by its name, the plumage is overall brown. The bill is relatively thick. It is endemic to humid Atlantic forest of south-eastern Brazil at altitudes of . It forages in the canopy and is typically seen in pairs. It is generally uncommon, but known from several protected areas, such as the Itatiaia National Park.

It will catch insects in the air; in a manner often referred to as sallying. It will also take insects directly off plants.

It lays 2 eggs with a pinkish hue. The larger end of the egg is speckled with brown and lavender.

Taxonomy
The brown tanager was formally described in 1839 by the French naturalist René Lesson under the binomial name Pyrrhula abeillei. The species was moved to its own monospecific genus Orchesticus in 1851 by the German ornithologist Jean Cabanis. The type locality is Rio de Janeiro in Brazil. The genus name is from the Ancient Greek orkhēstikos meaning "good at dancing". The specific epithet abeillei was chosen to honour the French collector and naturalist M. Abeillé. Within the Thraupidae the brown tanager is placed with the yellow-shouldered grosbeak in the subfamily Orchesticinae. The species is monotypic: no subspecies are recognised.

Thomas Lounsbury

Thomas Raynesford Lounsbury (January 1, 1838 – April 9, 1915) was an American literary historian and critic. He was born in Ovid, New York on January 1, 1838. He graduated from Yale College in 1859 with a B.A. and received a M.A. from Yale University in 1887. He later received honorary degrees from Yale University (LL.D. in 1892), Harvard University (LL.D. in 1893), Lafayette College, Princeton University, and Aberdeen College. He enlisted in the 126th New York Volunteers in 1862 and served in the Civil War as a first lieutenant.

From 1871 until his retirement in 1906 he was professor of English language and literature in Yale. For 33 years he was also librarian at Sheffield Scientific School, Yale. He was elected a member of the American Academy of Arts and Letters (1898) and the American Academy of Arts and Sciences (1896).

His work is marked by sound scholarship  and literary acumen. It is as a student of Chaucer, of Shakespeare, and of the English language from the point of view of its development that he especially distinguished himself. His editorial work includes: Chaucer's Parliament of Foules (1877); the Complete Works of Charles Dudley Warner (1904); and the Yale Book of American Verse (1912). Professor Lounsbury wrote other important publications which include:  

 A History of the English Language (1879, 1894)  
 Life of James Fenimore Cooper (1882)  
 Studies in Chaucer (three volumes, 1891) 
 Shakespeare as a Dramatic Artist (1901)  
 Shakespeare and Voltaire (1902)  
 The Standard of Pronunciation in English (1904)  
 The Text of Shakespeare (1906)  
 The Standard of Usage in English (1908)  
 English Spelling and Spelling Reform (1909)  
 Shakespeare as a Dramatic Artist (1912)

Lounsbury was also the subject of some needling by Mark Twain, in his famous critique of James Fenimore Cooper ("Fenimore Cooper's Literary Offenses", written 1895). Lounsbury had written favorably of Cooper, which Twain took to mean that Lounsbury simply hadn't actually read Cooper.

List of Prisoner characters – inmates

This is a list of all inmates of the fictitious Wentworth Detention Centre in the television series Prisoner, known as Prisoner: Cell Block H in The United States and Britain and Caged Women in Canada. Note that episode numbers cited are for first and last appearances; many characters had spells where they were absent for long periods of time and subsequently returned. Also, characters' appearances in recaps are not included if they died in the previous episode, unless their corpse is seen at the beginning of the next episode (e.g. Paddy Lawson):

Cannoneer

"Cannoneer" as a term for an artilleryman dates from the 16th century.  the United States Army uses as titles for such a soldier: "13B" (thirteen bravo) M.O.S. (military occupational specialty code), a "cannon crewmember" or  "cannoneer" for short. These "artillery-men" support infantry units in training, and on battlefields play an integral part in combat operations ranging from urban to jungle terrains.

An artillery  private is known as a Kanonier in German, as a kanonier in historical Polish contexts, as a kanonnier in Dutch, and as a kanonir () in historical Russian army and navy contexts; today, these would likely be rendered in English as "cannon". Artillery originated for use against ground targets—against infantry, cavalry, fortifications, armor, and other artillery. It can be used in a direct or indirect manner depending on circumstances. It can also be utilized in  airborne and  air-assault missions.

Penns Creek

Penns Creek is a  tributary of the Susquehanna River in central Pennsylvania in the United States.

The creek was called the Kaarondinhah by the Iroquois who were in possession of the Susquehanna Valley from the mid-17th to the mid-18th centuries. Between 1754, when the Iroquois sold most of the Susquehanna Valley including the creek to the provincial government of Pennsylvania, and 1772, it was called both Big Mahany and John Penn's Creek (after the younger brother of Pennsylvania founder William Penn) by the European settlers who moved there.

Penns Creek drains a watershed of approximately  in Snyder, Union, and Centre counties. It flows from its headwaters north of Spring Mills to the Susquehanna River, approximately  downstream of Selinsgrove.

A large spring within Penn's Cave, a commercial cave that offers guided tours by boat, forms one source for this limestone creek.

The upper reaches of Penns Creek offer some of the best trout flyfishing in the Northeast, with a Green Drake hatch occurring in late May that is one of the largest in the world.  Additional Hendricksons, Sulphurs, and Tricos also attract anglers. As the water travels towards the Susquehanna, the temperatures gradually warm to levels best suited for panfish.

Environmental issues
Ongoing pollution and soil erosion in the region continue to degrade the water quality and the environment locally as well as regionally. Farming, surface mining, wastewater treatment facilities and industrial spills are cited as contributing factors to loss of water quality. It also contributes to the pollution of the Chesapeake Bay. Controlling the wastewater discharges alone is expected to cost local taxpayers millions of dollars.

Organizations
The Lower Penns Creek Watershed Association (LPCWA), the Susquehanna Greenway Partnership, and the Susquehanna River Basin Commission are organizations concerned with Penns Creek. The Snyder County Conservation District and the Union County Conservation District both have watershed specialists that participate in LPCWA.

Michel Bergeron Trophy

The Michel Bergeron Trophy is awarded annually to the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League's "Offensive Rookie of the Year." From 1969 to 1980, the trophy was awarded to the QMHL's "Overall Rookie of the Year." The Bergeron trophy's counterpart since 1980, is the Raymond Lagacé Trophy, awarded to the "Defensive Rookie of the Year." The QMHL created the RDS Cup in 1991, as a reunified Rookie of the Year award.

Quasi-finite field

In mathematics, a quasi-finite field is a generalisation of a finite field. Standard local class field theory usually deals with complete valued fields whose residue field is finite (i.e. non-archimedean local fields), but the theory applies equally well when the residue field is only assumed quasi-finite.

Formal definition 

A quasi-finite field is a perfect field K together with an isomorphism of topological groups
 
where Ks is an algebraic closure of K (necessarily separable because K is perfect). The field extension Ks/K is infinite, and the Galois group is accordingly given the Krull topology. The group  is the profinite completion of integers with respect to its subgroups of finite index.

This definition is equivalent to saying that K has a unique (necessarily cyclic) extension Kn of degree n for each integer n ≥ 1, and that the union of these extensions is equal to Ks. Moreover, as part of the structure of the quasi-finite field, there is a generator Fn for each Gal(Kn/K), and the generators must be coherent, in the sense that if n divides m, the restriction of Fm to Kn is equal to Fn.

Examples 

The most basic example, which motivates the definition, is the finite field K = GF(q). It has a unique cyclic extension of degree n, namely Kn = GF(qn). The union of the Kn is the algebraic closure Ks. We take Fn to be the Frobenius element; that is, Fn(x) = xq.

Another example is K = C((T)), the ring of formal Laurent series in T over the field C of complex numbers. (These are simply formal power series in which we also allow finitely many terms of negative degree.) Then K has a unique cyclic extension
 
of degree n for each n ≥ 1, whose union is an algebraic closure of K called the field of Puiseux series, and that a generator of Gal(Kn/K) is given by
 
This construction works if C is replaced by any algebraically closed field C of characteristic zero.

SuFami Turbo

The , often compared to the Aladdin Deck Enhancer, is an accessory released by Bandai for Nintendo's Super Famicom system and was released in 1996.

Overview
This device is designed to sit on top of the Super Famicom, and features two cartridge slots. The premise is that games could be produced at a much lower cost and development time, not having to rely on Nintendo for cartridge production. Unlike the Aladdin Deck Enhancer, this device was officially approved by Nintendo under the provision that Bandai handle all the hardware manufacturing itself.

The two cartridge slots are designed to share data between the games. The cartridge placed in slot 1 is the game that will be played, while the cartridge in slot 2 supplies additional data for use in the main game. Of the thirteen games released, nine of them can link up, within each game series.

Games that are linkable are identified by a yellow diagram showing a SuFami Turbo with either 1 or 2 cartridges in the lower left corner of the game box. If the picture has 1 cart plugged into the SuFami Turbo, it is not linkable. If it has 2 carts plugged into the SuFami Turbo then it is linkable with the games named on the box.

The SuFami Turbo was released as a standalone unit, or with a pack in game.

Games
Games debuted for , with many offering the ability to link for added playability. Each of the 13 released games' boxes has a little picture in the lower left corner indicating whether linking is possible. The included pamphlet features Tetris 2 + Bombliss which was never released for the system, but as a standalone SNES game.

SD Gundam Generations
SD Gundam Generations is a series of 6 games, each containing a certain amount of unique Gundam fighters. With the main Gundam Generations game in slot 1, the player can use Gundam fighters from the cartridge in slot 2.

SD Ultra Battle
SD Ultra Battle is a beat 'em up game based on the Ultraman series which allows the player to use the characters from whichever cart was in slot 2, in the main game in slot 1. It links with other copies of the same game (Battle 1 links with Battle 1), allowing both players to use the same character and saved data, or with the opposing game using characters from both games. The first game is based on Ultraman, and the second is based on Ultra Seven.

Poi Poi Ninja
Poi Poi Ninja only links with other copies of Poi Poi Ninja, to share save data or character data for vs. battles.
