Minnesota West Community and Technical College

Minnesota West Community and Technical College is a public community and technical college in Minnesota with five campuses: Canby, Granite Falls, Jackson, Pipestone, and Worthington. The college also has learning centers in Luverne, Marshall, and Redwood Falls.  Students have the opportunity to earn an Associate Degree, Diploma, or Certificate in more than 60 disciplines.

History
The college was established on January 1, 1997, by the merging of Worthington Community College and Southwestern Technical College (itself a merger of four separate local vocational schools).

Minnesota West's individual campuses have a history dating back 75 years. The campuses were originally under the jurisdiction of the local school district and offered programs that served the local and regional economy. On July 1, 1985, the four then area technical institutes at Canby, Granite Falls, Jackson, and Pipestone were officially merged to form Southwestern Technical Institute. The Minnesota State Legislature renamed all technical institutes, technical colleges on July 1, 1989. Southwestern Technical College was a member institution of the former Minnesota Technical College System and on July 1, 1995, became one of 32 member institutions of the Minnesota State Colleges and Universities system.

The former Worthington Community College was established in 1936 as an institution of higher education by and under the jurisdiction of the local school district to meet the post secondary education needs of the community and surrounding area. The first campus was located in the Worthington High School and in 1966 the college moved to its current,  campus located to the north of Lake Okabena. In 1964, Worthington Junior College was transferred to the State Junior College Board and was named Worthington State Junior College. In 1973 the name was changed to Worthington Community College and the college was placed under the jurisdiction of the Minnesota Community College System. On July 1, 1995, Worthington Community College became a member institution of the Minnesota State Colleges and Universities system.

Athletics
Minnesota West athletic teams for men and women are called the Bluejays. The college is a member of the National Junior College Athletic Association and the Minnesota College Athletic Conference.

Don't Say You Love Me (Erasure song)

"Don't Say You Love Me" is a song written, produced and performed by English synth-pop duo Erasure. The track was released by Mute Records as the second single from the duo's eleventh studio album Nightbird. Although essentially a synth-pop song, "Don't Say You Love Me" had elements of doo-wop and girl group influences in its rhythm and lyrical structure. The song was remixed twice by Jeremy Wheatley when released as a single, one which gave the song a smoother, more electronic music feel (the single mix) and one which was a harsher dance number (the radio mix).

While the prior single "Breathe" and subsequent single "Here I Go Impossible Again" / "All This Time Still Falling Out of Love" both offered downloadable software on their limited edition CD singles for creating remixes of the respective songs, "Don't Say You Love Me" instead offered a separate website with a Macromedia Flash-based remix applet that allows the user to purchase custom remixes as MP3 downloads. As an incentive, each unique combination of the song's tracks can only be purchased once.

"Don't Say You Love Me" became Erasure's twenty-ninth Top 20 single on the UK Singles Chart, peaking at number fifteen. In Germany, the single hit number sixty-nine.

Capital outflow

Capital outflow is an economic term describing capital flowing out of (or leaving) a particular economy. Outflowing capital can be caused by any number of economic or political reasons but can often originate from instability in either sphere.

Regardless of cause, capital outflowing is generally perceived as undesirable and many countries create laws to restrict the movement of capital out of the nations' borders (called capital controls). While this can aid in temporary growth, it often causes more economic problems than it helps.

 Massive capital outflow is usually a sign of a greater problem, not the problem itself.
 Countries with outflow restrictions can find it harder to attract capital inflows because firms know if an opportunity goes sour they won't be able to recover much of their investment.
 Governments that institute capital controls inevitably send a signal to their citizens that something might be wrong with the economy, even if the laws are merely a precautionary measure.

Argentina experienced rampant and sudden capital outflows in the 1990s after its currency underwent dramatic pressure to adjust in light of the fixed exchange rate, leading to a recession. Modern macro-economists often cite the country as a classic example of the difficulties of developing fledgling economies.

Gas Cap Law

The Hawaii Gas Cap Law is a state law introduced in 2005 setting a price ceiling on wholesale gasoline prices, the maximum amount that may be charged for producing gasoline and delivering it to a service station. Under the law, the gas cap was set weekly by the Hawaii Public Utilities Commission (PUC) based on average spot prices for regular unleaded gasoline in three U.S. markets, New York Harbor, the Gulf Coast, and Los Angeles.

The gas cap had a baseline price that is the same throughout Hawaii, but the total wholesale price varied depending on seven zones, reflecting the differing costs of delivery to various locations throughout the state.

(Zone 1) Oahu
(Zone 2) Kauai
(Zone 3) Maui
(Zone 4) Hana
(Zone 5) Molokai
(Zone 6) Lanai
(Zone 7) Hilo
(Zone 8) Kona

Law suspended
On May 5, 2006, Gov. Linda Lingle (in office, 2002–2010) signed a bill suspending the gas cap law.  The bill allows Hawaii's governor to reinstate the gas cap law at any time.

Having been in force for less than a year, the cap was seen by some as artificially raising prices for consumers in Hawaii. As of 2019, the law has not been reinstated.

Central product

In mathematics, especially in the field of group theory, the central product is one way of producing a group from two smaller groups.  The central product is similar to the direct product, but in the central product two isomorphic central subgroups of the smaller groups are merged into a single central subgroup of the product.  Central products are an important construction and can be used for instance to classify extraspecial groups.

Definition

There are several related but distinct notions of central product.  Similarly to the direct product, there are both internal and external characterizations, and additionally there are variations on how strictly the intersection of the factors is controlled.

A group G is an internal central product of two subgroups H, K if
 G is generated by H and K. 
 Every element of H commutes with every element of K. 
Sometimes the stricter requirement that  is exactly equal to the center is imposed, as in . The subgroups H and K are then called central factors of G.

The external central product is constructed from two groups H and K, two subgroups  and , and a group isomorphism .  The external central product is the quotient of the direct product  by the normal subgroup 
, 
. Sometimes the stricter requirement that H1 = Z(H) and K1 = Z(K) is imposed, as in .

An internal central product is isomorphic to an external central product with H1 = K1 = H ∩ K and θ the identity.  An external central product is an internal central product of the images of H × 1 and 1 × K in the quotient group .  This is shown for each definition in  and .

Note that the external central product is not in general determined by its factors H and K alone.  The isomorphism type of the central product will depend on the isomorphism θ. It is however well defined in some notable situations, for example when H and K are both finite extra special groups and  and .

Examples
 The Pauli group is the central product of the cyclic group  and the dihedral group .
 Every extra special group is a central product of extra special groups of order p3.
 The layer of a finite group, that is, the subgroup generated by all subnormal quasisimple subgroups, is a central product of quasisimple groups in the sense of Gorenstein.

Applications

The representation theory of central products is very similar to the representation theory of direct products, and so is well understood, .

Central products occur in many structural lemmas, such as  which is used in George Glauberman's result that finite groups admitting a Klein four group of fixed-point-free automorphisms are solvable.

In certain context of a tensor product of Lie modules (and other related structures), the automorphism group contains a central product of the  automorphism groups of each factor .

2006 Kerala Legislative Assembly election

The 2006 Kerala Legislative Assembly election, part of a series of state assembly elections in 2006, was held in three phases. The first phase was held on 22 April 2006, when 59 out of the 140 constituencies in Kerala voted. The second was held on 29 April for the 66 constituencies in central Kerala. The last phase of polling for the remaining 15 constituencies was on 3 May 2006. The counting was conducted on 11 May 2006.

The Communist Party of India (Marxist) -led Left Democratic Front beat the incumbent Indian National Congress-led United Democratic Front by a margin of 56 seats. V. S. Achuthanandan, who led the CPI(M) was sworn in as the Chief Minister of Kerala on 18 May 2006.

Background
The UDF led government headed by A. K. Antony had won the previous elections held in 2001 by winning 99 seats. He later resigned on 28 August 2004 after UDF's dismal performance in Kerala for the Lok Sabha election that year, winning just one seat. Oommen Chandy replaced him later on 31 August.

Nathaniel Meyer von Rothschild

Nathaniel Meyer von Rothschild (26 October 1836 – 16 June 1905) was a member of the Rothschild banking family of Austria, known as art collector and patron.

Life
Born in Vienna, he was the fifth child and first son of Anselm von Rothschild (1803–1874) and his wife Charlotte von Rothschild (1807–1859). His grandfather Salomon Mayer von Rothschild (1774–1855), a native from Frankfurt, had founded the Viennese S M von Rothschild banking house in 1820, continued as the Creditanstalt by his father.

Nathaniel as the eldest male was expected to take over the running of the family's Austrian banking business. He studied at Brünn but fell out of favour with his father who considered him extravagant and financially irresponsible. Rather than going into business, Nathaniel spent his life as a socialite who built mansions and collected works of art. 

From 1872 to 1884, he had the Palais Nathaniel Rothschild erected at 14-16 Theresianumgasse in Vienna-Wieden in a lavish Ringstraße style inspired by French Renaissance architecture. He himself lived alone in a small apartment, while in various parts of the building his large collection of art was on display. The palais was badly damaged by the bombing of Vienna in World War II and afterwards demolished.

In 1880, he purchased Enzesfeld Castle with its vast property from the Counts of Schönburg-Hartenstein. He also had Hinterleiten Palace in Reichenau an der Rax erected in a Louis XIII style from 1884. The picturesque Reichenau area had become easily accessible from Vienna by the opening of the Southern Railway line and evolved into a popular retreat of the Viennese society, among them Habsburg Archduke Karl Ludwig of Austria who had Villa Wartholz built nearby. Nevertheless, Nathaniel Rothschild only spent two years at his palace before he placed it at the disposal of the Ministry of War to use it as a convalescent home for veterans.

On his father's death in 1874, Nathaniel and his brother Ferdinand (1839–1898), owner of Waddesdon Manor, inherited most of the family's property and art collection. The family business went to the youngest brother Albert (1844–1911), who successfully carried on the financial empire.

Nathaniel Rothschild became known for his substantial philanthropic and charitable activities and was highly popular with members of Vienna's aristocratic society, something that aided the family image and therefore its business. Beyond Vienna, he was as a benefactor to the Enzesfeld community, where in 1900 he donated the elementary school and funded other municipal works.

Nathaniel Anselm von Rothschild died a bachelor in 1905. He is buried in the Zentralfriedhof, Vienna.

Bollocks to Alton Towers

Bollocks to Alton Towers: Uncommonly British Days Out () is a humorous travel book written by Robin Halstead, Jason Hazeley, Alex Morris, and Joel Morris (the creators of The Framley Examiner), which showcases unusual attractions, left-field museums and one-off days out in the United Kingdom.

The introduction describes the book as "a collection of the underdogs of British tourism... [that] say more about Britain and the British than any number of corkscrew thrill rides or high-tech Interactive Visitor Experiences."

The book was published in hardback by Michael Joseph Ltd (an imprint of the Penguin Group) in 2005. It was also published in paperback by Penguin Books in 2006. The book received favourable reviews from The Times, The Press, and The Daily Telegraph. A sequel, titled Far From the Sodding Crowd, was published in hardback in 2007. A paperback edition, More Bollocks to Alton Towers, () was published in April 2008.

A short documentary, Far From the Sodding Crowd, was made in 2009 and features some of the attractions included in both books, as well as writers Jason Hazeley and Joel Morris.

Mission golden-eyed tree frog

The Mission golden-eyed tree frog or Amazon milk frog (Trachycephalus resinifictrix) is a large species of arboreal frog native to the Amazon Rainforest in South America. It is sometimes referred to as the blue milk frog due to a sticky, milk-like substance that they produce when feeling threatened. It was first discovered along the Maracanã River in Brazil. This species was previously within the genus Phrynohyas, which was recently synonymized with Trachycephalus.

Description 
These frogs are fairly large, reaching sizes of  in length.  Adult frogs are light grey in colour with brown or black banding, while juveniles will exhibit stronger contrasts. As they age, their skin develops a slightly bumpy texture. Their blood tends to be a shade of blue which can be shown through their skin, most boldly in the mouth area and toe pads.

The "milk" in the common name comes from the milky fluid these frogs excrete when stressed.

Habitat 
Mission golden-eyed tree frogs inhabit humid rainforest regions. They often inhabit vegetation which extends over permanent, slow-moving water sources.

In captivity 
Trachycephalus resinifictrix is commonly found in captivity. They are relatively easy to care for, but require a significant amount of space, humidity, and regular enclosure maintenance to ensure a clean healthy environment for the frog. In the wild, they live in temperatures around 21–30 °C, and thus in captivity prefer a similar ambient temperature.

Brent Krahn

Brent Krahn (born April 2, 1982) is a Canadian former professional ice hockey goaltender. He was drafted ninth overall by the Calgary Flames in the 2000 NHL Entry Draft and played a single game in the National Hockey League for the Dallas Stars.

Playing career
Brent Krahn enjoyed a very successful junior hockey career with the WHL's Calgary Hitmen before being drafted in the first round by Calgary in the 2000 NHL Entry Draft. A highly regarded prospect at the time, he was the second goaltender selected in the draft, after Rick DiPietro, who was selected first overall. He subsequently spent time in the American Hockey League with the San Antonio Rampage, Lowell Lock Monsters, Omaha Ak-Sar-Ben Knights, and the Quad City Flames. A recurring knee injury seriously hampered his development at the professional level, and Krahn is now widely regarded as a draft bust.
 
Following the 2007-2008 NHL season and after 8 years of development in the Flames organization, the team made the decision to not re-sign Krahn, and he became an unrestricted free agent. He was signed by the Dallas Stars on September 24, 2008.  Beginning the season with the AHL's Chicago Wolves, Krahn was recalled by the Stars in February 2009, and made his NHL debut on February 14 in relief of starter Marty Turco against the Chicago Blackhawks.

Krahn played for the Texas Stars of the AHL from 2009 until 2011. After the 2010-2011 regular season it was announced that he had been left off the Stars' Clear-Day roster and was therefore ineligible for the AHL playoffs. 

He currently works at Pembina Pipelines.

Great Beds Light

Great Beds Light is a sparkplug lighthouse in Raritan Bay, about  from South Amboy of Middlesex County, New Jersey, United States. Over the years the lighthouse has become the symbol for the city of South Amboy. Named as Great Beds Light Station, it was added to the National Register of Historic Places on May 29, 2008, for its significance in architecture, engineering, transportation, and maritime history.

History and description

The light was built in 1880 with a fourth order Fresnel lens to mark the Great Beds Shoal, hazardous shallow water in the Raritan Bay. The  foundation, a conical caisson, sits in about  of water. The five-story tower and lantern are  high.

Pied Piper's House

The Pied Piper's House or Rattenfängerhaus ("Rat Catcher's House") is a half-timbered building in Hamelin. It is named after an inscription on its side which purports to be an eyewitness account of the events of the Pied Piper of Hamelin story, describing the departure of the Hamelin children on 26 June 1284. An English translation given on a plaque reads:

Although the stone façade dates from 1602, the building itself is much older. The façade was built for Mayor Hermann Arendes by the architects Johann Hundertossen and/or Eberhard Wilkening in the style of the Renaissance. The picture dated 1900 shows the adjacent legendary "Street without Music" with a view of buildings that no longer stand today. The stone structure pictured to the left of the Pied Piper's House is also no longer in existence. 

The bay window on the left of the building is called the Utlucht, which means "looking out" in Low German. There was a highly decorated gable mounted here before 1850, parts of which may be seen at the lapidarium of the Hamelin Museum.

The building is now a Hamelin City-owned restaurant. There are many works of art at the Pied Piper's House. They have been purchased by the city museum and should be available to be seen at the re-opening in the summer.

Kapino Polje Airport

Nikšić Airport (Montenegrin: Аеродром Никшић / Aerodrom Nikšić)  is a sport airport located near Nikšić, Montenegro.

History
The airport was built as a small airstrip with one grass runway during the Kingdom of Yugoslavia.
On 14 April 1941, King Peter II of Yugoslavia used the airfield to leave the country, escaping the Axis powers invasion. In Sept 1948, it was used as a stop for transfer of first 6 Spitfires from Czechoslovakia to Israel, thus playing a small role in 1948 Arab–Israeli War. During the SFRY era, the airport was a notable parachuting training center.

After the breakup of Yugoslavia, the airport fell into disuse, serving mostly as a glider airstrip for enthusiasts in the local aviation club. The airport was chosen to be a host of 2010 FAI World Parachuting Championships, and its runway was asphalted, with length increased to 1,450m.  With this latest upgrade, it is expected that the airport receives status of an international airport, so it can cater to the needs of general aviation.

Passenger airport
Currently there is no passenger terminal and no scheduled air traffic at the Niksic airport. This is the second largest municipality in Montenegro, it could have a working passenger airport. Construction of the airport Kapino Polje in Niksic is in progress. Local authorities expect to finish construction of the control tower and administration building soon. They hope that they will find a suitable partner and  equip the airport for traffic in the near future.

Echelon (band)

Echelon were a four-piece band hailing from Essex, England.

Biography
Guitarist Mark Brandon, bassist Owain North and vocalist Paul Usher met at an early age and played together in various lineups, however became serious about a career as a band following the recruitment of drummer Andrew Grant. Following a series of local gigs, the band caught the ear of Alan McGee in early 2004 who would subsequently sign the band to his Poptones label later that year.

The band gained momentum, supporting bands such as The Others and The Boxer Rebellion and doing their own headline tour surrounding the release of their first single, "Plus". The single received airplay from renowned DJs such as Steve Lamacq and Tom Robinson, who made it single of the week on his BBC Radio 6 Music evening show. The single also received airplay from XFM where the band did a live session. The debut single Plus was released on 8 November to positive reviews, and charted at Number 57 in the UK Singles Chart.

Cited as the 'kid brothers' of Radiohead, Echelon moved into 2005 touring consistently and recording the follow-up to "Plus" and filming the corresponding video. After an appearance at Glastonbury the delayed follow up single "Windows Shut" / "This Room" (a double A-Side) was released on 17 October. Although appreciated by Radio One DJ Zane Lowe the single failed to match the airplay of the debut, reaching number 12 in the UK Indie Chart.

Echelon finished in 2006, briefly reforming as Mixed Business before Usher, Grant, and Brandon formed a new band called Magistrates.

Here I Go Impossible Again

"Here I Go Impossible Again" is a song written and recorded by English synth-pop duo Erasure. It appears on the band's eleventh studio album Nightbird and Mute Records released this song together with "All This Time Still Falling Out of Love" (also from Nightbird) as a double A-side, the third single release from this album.

Written and produced by Erasure members Vince Clarke and Andy Bell, "Here I Go Impossible Again" features graceful synthesized instrumentation and a smooth vocal delivery from Bell (due to his intricate, multi-layered background parts). "Here I Go Impossible Again" was remixed slightly for its radio mix. As they had done with previous single "Breathe", Erasure provided downloadable software on the compact disc single which allowed buyers to create their own remix of the track.

The double A-sided single peaked at number twenty-five on the UK Singles Chart, becoming Erasure's thirty-first UK Top 40 single.

A cover version of the song was recorded by Australian artist Peter Wilson (singer) for his album Pulsation in 2013.

All This Time Still Falling Out of Love

"All This Time Still Falling Out of Love" is a song by English synth-pop duo Erasure. The track appears on the band's eleventh studio album Nightbird and Mute Records released it together with "Here I Go Impossible Again" (also from Nightbird) as a double A-side, the third single release from this album.

The song was written and produced by Erasure members Vince Clarke and Andy Bell. "All This Time Still Falling Out of Love" is a straight up dance music number displaying Clarke's signature syncopated, analogue synth noises and rhythm patterns. The song's original mix, by Tom Elmhirst, appeared as its single version; on Nightbird, it was the one song not to have been mixed by Elmhirst, instead appearing as a harsher dance remix by Vince Clarke and Mark Saunders, who had mixed much of Erasure's early material. In addition, the DVD single contained a live version.

It was performed frequently during Erasure's 2005 world tour to support Nightbird ("The Erasure Show"). The double A-sided single peaked at number twenty-five on the UK singles chart, becoming Erasure's thirty-first UK Top 40 single.

Lake Pomorie

Lake Pomorie (, Pomoriysko ezero) is the northernmost of the coastal Burgas Lakes, located in the immediate proximity of the Black Sea and the Bulgarian town of Pomorie. It has an area of 8.5 km2 (reaching 10 km2 together with the adjacent damp zones) and has an elongated shape with a length of 6.7 km and width of 1.8–2 km. Divided from the sea by a narrow strip of sand (spit) and an artificial dike, the lake is an ultrasaline natural lagoon.

Lake Pomorie is a protected area since January 2001. Sea salt is obtained in the north part and curative mud in the south. Located on the Via Pontica bird migration route, the lake is inhabited by 215 species of birds, 4 of which globally endangered, and is thus of ornithological importance.

Hutber's law

Hutber's law states that "improvement means deterioration". It is founded on the cynical observation that a stated improvement actually hides a deterioration.

The term has seen wide application in business, engineering, and risk analysis. It was first articulated in the 1970s by Patrick Hutber, an economist and journalist who was the City Editor for The Sunday Telegraph in London from 1966 to 1979.

Brain Lord

is an action role-playing video game developed by Produce! and published by Enix for the Super NES. It was only released in Japan and North America.

Gameplay
Most of the game takes place in dungeons, with a heavy emphasis on puzzles.

The player takes on the role of a young adventurer who can have up to two jades, creatures that perform tasks such as healing or long range attacks, following the player character at one time. There are five dungeons in the game: The Tower of Light, Ancient Ruins, the Ice Castle, Droog Volcano, and Platinum. The player starts out in the town of Arcs; there is only one other town, Toronto. In Toronto there is a battle arena in which the player can fight for money. The player can also bet on other competitors. 

The video game features several kinds of weapons including bows, boomerangs, swords, axes, and flails. Defeated enemies yield gold. Throughout the game the player can acquire better armor and weapons to increase his defensive and offensive capabilities, similar to The Legend of Zelda series.

The jades that accompany the protagonist can level up by picking up blue 'XP' orbs that are dropped randomly by defeated enemies.

Plot
Remeer's father, the last of the dragon warriors, was sent on a quest to find the last of the dragons terrorizing the village. His father never returned.

Years later Remeer sets out on his own journey to find out what happened to his father. Remeer is joined by his four friends: Kashian (a bounty hunter), Barness (a spiritual guru), Rein (a warrior), and Ferris (a witch). Each help him as he makes his way through the five dungeons in the land.

Remeer (or its equivalent 'Lemele') is used for prominent characters in two more video games developed by Produce! and published by Enix, The 7th Saga and Mystic Ark.

Reception

Electronic Gaming Monthly commented that Brain Lord strikes a nice balance between the action and RPG elements, and they also praised the "atmospheric" music.

Bismarck Memorial

The Bismarck Memorial () is a prominent memorial statue in the Tiergarten in Berlin dedicated to Prince Otto von Bismarck, Minister President of the Kingdom of Prussia and the first Chancellor of the German Empire. It was sculpted by Reinhold Begas. It is one of 250 memorials to Bismarck worldwide.

This memorial in Berlin portrays Bismarck in his ceremonial garb as Chancellor standing above statues of:
Atlas, showing Germany's world power status at the end of the 19th century;
Siegfried, forging a sword to show Germany's strong industrial and military might; 
Germania pinning underfoot a panther, symbolizing the suppression of discord and rebellion; 
a sibyl reclining on a sphinx and reading the book of history.

The statue, along with the famous Berlin victory column, were once located in front of the Reichstag building before they were moved in 1938 by Adolf Hitler in his project to recast Berlin as Welthauptstadt Germania. The statue weathered a marked amount of shrapnel damage during World War II, but has survived largely intact to the present day. In fact, the move probably saved the monument from total destruction, as the old garden in front of the Reichstag was obliterated in the war.
