United Nations Commission on Conventional Armaments

The United Nations Commission on Conventional Armaments was founded as a result of the founding United Nations treaty in 1946. The goal of the commission was to find ways to reduce the size of non-nuclear armaments around the world. The Commission was formally established by the Security Council Resolution on 13 February 1947. The five permanent members of the United Nation Security Council could not agree on how to achieve this aim and so the first report of the Commission in 1949 made no substantial recommendations.

In 1950, the Soviet Union refused to sit with the representatives of the "Kuomintang group" (i.e. the non-communist Chinese representatives) on the Commission. This brought an effective end to the Commission's discussion. It was formally dissolved in 1952.

Hello, Hello, I'm Back Again

"Hello, Hello, I'm Back Again" is a song by English glam rock singer Gary Glitter, written by Glitter with Mike Leander and produced by Mike Leander. The precise title of the song is only said twice during the song, and as a result other more frequent sung lines have become alternative titles, these include "Hello, Hello, It's Good to Be Back", "It's Good to Be Back" and "Did You Miss Me?". Sometimes the title is shortened to simply "Hello, Hello".

Background
The song is about a man calling his lover after being away for some time and begins with "Did you miss me (yeah), while I was away?", with "Hello, hello, it's good to be back, it's good to be back" sung repeatedly in the chorus. It peaked at No. 2 on the UK Singles Chart and charted in several other countries and remained a popular oldie for decades. It was also often sung at football matches, with the lyrics "Hello, hello" (insert team name) "are back". The song has been featured on a number of Glitter compilation and live albums since, as well as his second studio album, Touch Me (1973). In 1995 the song returned to the UK charts when Glitter re-recorded it, under the title "Hello, Hello, I'm Back Again (Again!)".

The Young Gods cover

Swiss post-industrial band the Young Gods covered the song for their eponymous 1987 debut album The Young Gods under the title "Did You Miss Me?" and released it as a single in the same year.

Destination Films

Destination Films is a division of Sony Pictures Entertainment currently specializing in action, thriller, niche sci-fi and low-end to medium-end horror films.

History 
The original Destination Films was founded by Brent Baum and Steve Stabler in 1998. The company made a deal with Columbia TriStar Home Video to have them distribute their films for video release. The company was shut down in February 2001 after failing to meet financial expectations. The company's library and in-production projects such as The Wedding Planner and Slackers were sold off to Sony Pictures for distribution.

In 2002, Destination Films was revived as a division of Columbia TriStar Home Entertainment, with the anime film Metropolis being scheduled for their first release, although the film Shiri would be released a couple weeks before. Many of the films released on home entertainment under Destination Films would receive a small theatrical release beforehand from either other Sony Pictures divisions like TriStar Pictures and Screen Gems or third-party distributors like Samuel Goldwyn Films.

In 2007, Sony Pictures Worldwide Acquisitions took over and has released some films under Destination Films' label, like Blood: The Last Vampire, Black Dynamite and Harry Brown.

Craig Calonica

Craig Calonica is a mountain climber and skier from the United States.

History
Craig Calonica represented the US Ski Team in Speed Skiing from 1974 to 1987 where he consistently placed among the top 5 and 10 in the world. He is also a climber and has climb many big walls in Yosemite National Park and to date has climbed over 28 big wall routes mostly on El Capitan. He is also an accomplished Alpine climber and has climbed in Alaska, Nepal, Tibet, Chile, Argentina, Europe, throughout the US, etc. 2008 marked his 27th year in Nepal's Himalaya, during this time he has become the leading pioneer of skiing in Nepal's Himalaya and has made hundreds of first descents.

During the winter of 1981/82 Calonica was a member of the Everest Grand Circle expedition the goal was to circumnavigate Everest, his was the first team that trekked, skied, around the peak in both Tibet and Nepal. During this expedition the team also made a first ascent of Pumori 7,161 m in the winter, it was the second successful winter ascent in Nepal, and the first winter ascent of a new route.

In August & September 1996, 1997 and 1998 he attempted to ski down Everest's North Face, but due to the constant monsoon weather was never able to reach the summit. Unfortunately the best time to ski Everest from its summit is during the monsoon season, thus why the prize of skiing Everest from its summit has been elusive. http://classic.mountainzone.com/climbing/skieverest/updates.html]

On October 21, 1998, after skiing on the Chinese side of Everest, the California adventurer told Reuters reporters that he was convinced he had spotted the legendary yeti twice, “I saw something that was not human, that was not a gorilla, not a deer, not a goat and not a bear,"  he told them.

Bartholomäus Aich

Bartholomäus Aich was a South-German organist and composer in the 17th century. Little is known about his life: originally from the village of Uttenweiler near Biberach an der Riß in Upper Swabia, he was the organist of the convent of canonesses in Lindau/Lake Constance.

His only surviving work is the musical-dramatic festival play Armamentarium comicum amoris et honoris (The Comic Armoury of Love and Honour), written on the occasion of the wedding of Count Maximilian Willibald of Waldburg-Wolfegg and Clara Isabella Princess of Aarschot and Arenberg, that took place in Lindau on 6 December 1648. Armamentarium combined the Jesuit theatre tradition with the Italian monody of the early Baroque period and was performed by pupils of the Lindau Jesuit college on 8 December 1648. It is one of the earliest surviving examples of an operatic work performed in Germany.

The libretto (by an unknown author) is highly allegorical and focused on the heraldic symbols that the combined coat of arms of the bridal couple would contain. These allegories are introduced by biblical figures from the Old Testament. Since that custom-made plot was not appropriate for performances beyond the original purpose, the work vanished into oblivion. It was recently rediscovered in the musical collections of the Dukes of Waldburg-Wolfegg and performed at Schloss Wolfegg on 11 September 2005, by the Hassler-Consort ensemble, conducted by Franz Raml.

Category of elements

In category theory, a branch of mathematics, the category of elements of a  presheaf is a category associated to that presheaf whose objects are the elements of sets in the presheaf.

The category of elements of a simplicial set is fundamental in simplicial homotopy theory, a branch of algebraic topology. More generally, the category of elements plays a key role in the proof that every weighted colimit can be expressed as an ordinary colimit, which is in turn necessary for the basic results in theory of pointwise left Kan extensions, and the characterization of the presheaf category as the free cocompletion of a category.

Definition
Let  be a category and let  be a set-valued functor. The category  of elements of  (also denoted ) is the category whose:
 Objects are pairs  where  and .
 Morphisms  are arrows  of  such that .

An equivalent definition is that the category of elements of  is the comma category , where  is a  singleton (a set with one element). 

The category of elements of  is naturally equipped with a projection functor  that sends an object  to , and an arrow  to its underlying arrow in .

As a functor from presheaves to small categories
For small , this construction can be extended into a functor  from  to , the category of small categories. Using the Yoneda lemma one can show that , where  is the Yoneda embedding. This isomorphism is natural in  and thus the functor  is naturally isomorphic to .

John Johnston Lefferty

John Johnston Lefferty (ca 1777 – October 26, 1842) was a doctor and political figure in Upper Canada.

He was born in New Jersey around 1777 and settled in the Niagara region of Upper Canada in 1797. He served as a surgeon for the militia during the War of 1812; his home was burned by American troops. He opened an apothecary shop in St. Catharines with a partner after the war. In 1825, he was elected to the Legislative Assembly of Upper Canada for the 2nd & 3rd ridings in Lincoln; he was reelected in 3rd Lincoln in 1828. In 1830, he introduced a bill that would allow magistrates to enforce observation of Sunday as a religious day. He criticized the government for its stance on the "alien question" and the Welland Canal. In 1834, he was initially declared reelected in 3rd Lincoln, but was unseated when his opponent, David Thorburn, successfully appealed to the Legislative Assembly.

He died near Niagara Falls in 1842.

Andrew Houston

Andrew Houston (20 March 1850 – September 1920 ) was born in Doonbreeda, Nephin, County Mayo; later moving to Rossendale, credited as the Rossendale Bard.

Life 
Andrew Houston was a Rossendale Irishman, the author of a book of Poems and Songs (many of which had appeared previously in the Rossendale Free Press) published in 1912 and printed by J. J. Riley of Rawtenstall. Andrew Houston was born on 20 March 1850 in the village of Doonbreeda at the foot of Nephin Hill, West Mayo.

His father was a village school-master in Rathkeale and was well known in County Mayo as a writer of verses and songs. Andrew left Ireland and came to live at Newchurch-in-Rossendale when he was eleven years old and he worked in the local mills until 1880 when he became a commercial traveller. He eventually moved to Derbyshire but he loved to visit Rossendale of his adolescent years, and "camp" his old friends.

In the preface of his book Poems and Songs, S. A. Sutcliffe of Southport describes him as a man who had a well-contented look and a jolly eye and who was fond of ease and freedom. From his writings it can be seen that he liked people and liked to roam over the moors of the Rossendale area and had deep affection for both the Valley and his old Irish home.

He pays tribute to the friendliness of Bacup folk in his poem "Bonny Owd Bacup" and many old Rossendalians live on in his pages—Mr. Terry, the schoolmaster, Turn o’ Mary's, owd navvy Jackson, and Ormy Deighn and other members of the old Edgeside Drum and Fife Band, to mention a few. His song Molly Magee evokes memories of the summers before the First World War when the Irish haymakers, experts with the scythe and hard workers, came over every year to work for the local farmers. He wrote more than a hundred poems and songs.

Catholic Church in French Guiana

The Catholic Church in French Guiana is part of the worldwide Catholic Church, under the spiritual leadership of the Pope in Rome.

Around 75% of the population is Catholic and the dependency forms a single diocese - the Diocese of Cayenne.

Erected as the apostolic prefecture of French Guiana-Cayenne in 1651, it remained a prefecture until elevated to a Vicariate in January 1933, and finally to the Diocese of Cayenne in February 1956. The Diocese is currently a suffragan of the Archdiocese of Fort-de-France et Saint-Pierre on the island of Martinique. The current bishop is Emmanuel Marie Philippe Louis Lafont, appointed in June 2004. That was actually the former bishop but the Wikipedia editors have not updated it. The new bishop is Louis Sankalé.

Phanom district

Phanom (, ) is a district (amphoe) in the southwest of Surat Thani province of southern Thailand.

Geography
The district is in the hills of the Phuket mountain range, with around 60 percent of its area consisting of mountains and forests. The northwestern part of the district is protected in the Khao Sok National Park, in the southwest by the Khlong Phanom National Park. The district marks the eastern end of the pass through the mountains, connecting Takua Pa with Surat Thani. This historic pass along the Sok River valley is now the route of Thailand Route 401.

Neighboring districts are (from north clockwise): Ban Ta Khun, Khiri Rat Nikhom, Khian Sa and Phrasaeng of Surat Thani: Plai Phraya of Krabi province: Thap Put, Mueang Phang Nga, Kapong, Takua Pa and Khura Buri of Phang Nga province.

History

The district was created in 1890, at that time named Khlong Cha Un (คลองชะอุ่น). It was later renamed to Pak Phanom (ปากพนม), as the district office was moved to a new site in Phak Phanom, which was then shortened to simply Phanom. The first district officer was Khun Phanom Thana Rak. In 1910 the district was reduced to a minor district (king amphoe) and made a subordinate of Khirirat Nikhom District. On 14 November 1971 it regained full district status.

Symbols
The slogan of the district is "Beautiful Rafflesia, rich in hills covered by mist".

Administration
The district is divided into six sub-districts (tambons), which are further subdivided into 56 villages (mubans). Phanom itself has a township (thesaban tambon) status and covers tambon Phang Kan and parts of tambon Phanom. Each of the six tambon is administered by a tambon administrative organization (TAO).

Military dummy

Dummies and decoys are fake military equipment that are intended to deceive the enemy.  Dummies and decoys are only one aspect of military deception.

Examples
During World War II, dummy airfields and even towns were used in England to divert German bombers from the real targets. At the Battle of La Ciotat in 1944, American aircraft dropped hundreds of dummy paratroopers (paradummies) just north of La Ciotat, France. The goal of this operation was to divert German troops away from the main landing zones of Operation Dragoon. Additionally, during World War II, Operation Quicksilver was an attempt to mislead the Germans as to the location of the D-Day invasion using dummy military equipment.

A naval example was the British battleship HMS Centurion. Obsolete and disarmed by World War II, she spent two years in the Mediterranean fitted with wooden guns, to make British naval forces in the area seem stronger than they were. Likewise, Fleet tender was the codename for a number of British merchant ships that fitted with dummy structures to resemble warships.

During the late Cold War, East German S-200 surface-to-air missile sites employed decommissioned and modified PRV-9 height finding radars as decoys to confuse NATO electronic signals intelligence gathering operations.

In the 1991 Persian Gulf War, BQM-74C Chukar III drones were used as decoys during the initial air attacks into Iraq. One group of drones flew over 500 kilometers (310 miles) at 630 km/h (390 mph), then began to circle Baghdad for up to 20 minutes. Iraqi air defense radars which probed for the drones were engaged by allied strike aircraft firing AGM-88 HARMs (High-speed Anti-Radiation Missiles).

In Russia, a former hot air balloon factory has continued in the 2010s to make dummy tanks, aircraft, missile launch pads, radar stations, and rocket launchers.  The inflatable dummies are designed to present a realistic image to enemy radar and thermal imaging.

During the Russian invasion of Ukraine, AFU successfully used wooden dummies of HIMARS in order to divert Russian missile strikes.

An intercontinental ballistic missile may release decoys in addition to one or more warheads.

Military aircraft on SEAD missions may carry decoy missiles such as the ADM-160 MALD which can create aircraft-like return signals on enemy radars.

Russo-Ukrainian War

Ukraine has made wide spread usage of decoys. In particular the usage of fake M777 howitzers costing $1000. When the actual weapon costs "several million dollars" to make. Decoys must use  steel and wood. This is to match infra-red signature that a real M777 would give off. It also gives a false impression of Ukrainian weaponry. This is in line with fake HIMARS launchers that have been used by Ukraine since August 2022. Russia has also used fake trenches filled with explosives to kill Ukrainian soldiers.

History
The Catholic Church was established by Portuguese traders in 1533 on the island. Diplomatic relations between the Vatican and Cape Verde were established in 1976. 

The Diocese of Mindelo was divided from the original Diocese of Santiago in 2003, creating the current configuration of two diocese covering the island country. In 2011, an agreement was signed between the Government of Cape Verde and the Vatican creating a legal foundation for the Catholic Church in the country, allowed for Catholic schools, and a church role in formalizing marriages. On February 14, 2015, Pope Francis made Bishop Arlindo Gomes the first Cardinal from Cape Verde.

Silage produced two albums, Watusi and Vegas Car Chasers on Sub•Lime Records and their parent Essential Records, respectively. The band's lineup for Watusi consisted of Damian Horne, Lance Black, and Shane Black (brothers).

Release history
Silage produced a few independent albums before being signed to Sub*Lime Records, including "Holy Cow Food! Bagman!" in 1996 on the Sonfish Records imprint (featuring partial vocals and bass by A-F Records recording artist Ean Elliot Clevenger), Liquid Spatula. after signing onto the artist management company founded by Paul Gunther and Rob Poznanski, Straight Up Music, Silage was quickly signed onto Jive Records/SubLime Records. Silage's first album, Watusi (1997) saw a blend of ska, punk and hip-hop heralded mostly by the Christian underground punk scene. For their next release, Silage modified their sound to bring pop and hip-hop influences to the fore. This new sound produced their more successful album, Vegas Car Chasers (1998). The most notable songs from this album are "Billboards," which garnered the No. 6 spot on Christian music charts in 1998; and "Verb," which was graced by the rap stylings of Knowdaverbs, and achieved No. 7 on the same chart the next year.

Breakup
Silage disbanded in 1999. The band Parkway, also on Essential Records, consisted of Damian Horne and Lance Black. Lance Black plays in the band Celebrity.

Dullatur

Dullatur is a village (population 720 (est. 2012)) near Cumbernauld, Scotland. Like Condorrat, Castlecary and Luggiebank, it predates the new town of Cumbernauld, and of those only Condorrat was officially included in the designated area. Its name is anglicised from the Gaelic Dubh Leitir, which means "dark slope". The route of the Antonine Wall passes just to the north of  Dullatur. Two Roman temporary marching camps were located at Dullatur between the forts at Croy Hill and Westerwood. The camps have been excavated several times by archaeologists following aerial photography and proposed housebuilding. Both camps have now been built over, and no visible remains can be seen on the ground today. Digital reconstructions of the larger and the smaller of the camps have been created. When building the nearby Forth and Clyde Canal in the 18th century a number of finds were made in Dullatur Bog. Thomas Watson recorded: "a number of swords, pistols, and other weapons were dug out; also the bodies of men and horses, and what seems somewhat marvellous, a trooper, completely armed, and seated on his horse, in the exact posture in which he had perished." It was supposed that the man was escaping the Battle of Kilsyth which is due north of Dullatur Bog.

The development of the village owed much to the creation of the Glasgow-Edinburgh railway line, with a station sited in Dullatur in 1842 to encourage commuters to settle there. Several grand villas were built as part of the original development, two of which were designed by the architect Alexander "Greek" Thomson.

The make-up of the village was of the higher socio-economic class, and early recreational developments included Dullatur Golf Club and lawn-tennis clubs, both of which persist to the present day. Dullatur railway station is now closed but the village still serves as a commuter settlement, with a number of private properties being built over the years.
