Livin' with a Heartache

"Livin' with a Heartache" is a song written by Carl Wilson and Randy Bachman for the American rock band the Beach Boys, one of two collaborations between the two writers. It was recorded from August 27–29 at Bachman's home studio known as "The Barn" in Lynden, Washington with two further sessions at Rumbo Studios in November and December 1979. "Livin' with a Heartache" was released on the Beach Boys' 1980 album Keepin' the Summer Alive and was subsequently released with a truncated 3:05 mix as a single backed with "Santa Ana Winds" which failed to chart in the US.

Record World called it a "gem" and said that the "melody & hook are perfect."

Bibron's thick-toed gecko

Chondrodactylus bibronii, commonly known as Bibron's thick-toed gecko, Bibron's sand gecko, or simply Bibron's gecko, is a species of lizard in the family Gekkonidae. The species is native to southern Africa. C. bibronii has been used as an animal model in bioastronautic research examining the effects of spaceflight on the morphology and physiology of vertebrates.

Etymology
The specific name, bibronii, is in honor of French herpetologist Gabriel Bibron, as are several common names.

Geographic range
Bibron's gecko is distributed across the southern part of the African continent in Namibia, South Africa, and Eswatini. It is common in South Africa, where it is one of the largest gecko species.

C. bibronii has been introduced in the southeastern United States. Populations have been found in Manatee County, Florida.

Description
A moderate-sized gecko, C. bibronii reaches a total length (including tail) of . It has a stockier build than most other geckos. The female is generally smaller than the male. Its base color is brown, and it has a beaded pattern dorsally, with black crossbars. The male has white dots; the female may, as well. The belly is white or very light brown. The newly hatched Bibron's gecko has solid line and color patterns, while the adult's patterns are more broken.

Behavior
Bibron's thick-toed gecko is arboreal and ground-dwelling. It is territorial, and males are very aggressive toward each other. Individuals can commonly be found missing appendages in the wild.

Reproduction
An adult female C. bibronii usually lays two clutches per year, with two eggs per clutch.

Mary Easley

Mary L. Easley is the Oklahoma Senator representing District 18, which includes Mayes, Tulsa and Wagoner counties, since she won a special election in 2004. She previously served in the Oklahoma House of Representatives from 1996 through 2004, representing District 78.

Early life
Mary Easley was born in Cassville, Missouri, where her parents were farmers. She grew up around the majority of her extended family and has fond memories of being raised in rural Missouri. After high school, Easley attended Southwest Baptist University. She met her husband, Truman, and moved to Wichita, Kansas, with him for his job at Boeing Aircraft. Easley completed her undergraduate degree at Friends University as well as began to work on her master's. For about a year, she worked on her degree while teaching. After that year Easley went to Wichita State. Her first teaching position was in Valley Center, Kansas.

In 1967, the couple moved to Tulsa, Oklahoma. Easley began teaching in Owasso, Oklahoma and remained there for 24 more years. Easley taught English at Owasso High School.

Oklahoma House of Representatives (1997-2004)
Toward the end of her teaching career, Easley's son Kevin was a state senator. This started to inspire Easley to become involved with politics in order to attempt to pass legislation that she was concerned about. Soon Easley decided to retire from education and begin campaigning. Her campaign slogan was the same one her son used: "Easley the Best Choice." Easley was elected to the Oklahoma House of Representatives in 1997. It was the first time that a mother and son served simultaneously, though Kevin was in the Senate at the time. She served until 2004, when she took her son Kevin's Oklahoma Senate seat.

Committees
Banking chairman

Oklahoma Senate (2004-2010)
Kevin decided to leave office to pursue a different career and convinced his mother, Mary Easley, to run for his vacated seat. Easley worked on passing several bills concerned with education during her terms in the Senate. She authored the Autism Insurance Bill, which did not pass. The bill would essentially help to provide insurance for families struggling with an autistic child. Easley was especially dedicated to bettering the education of children with disabilities.

1997 Moscow memorandum

The 1997 Moscow memorandum, also known as the Primakov memorandum (after the then-Foreign Minister Yevgeny Primakov of Russia), was an agreement governing relations between Moldova and Transnistria aimed at solving the Transnistria conflict.

Translated from the original Russian text, the full formal title of the document is Memorandum on the principles of normalizations of the relations between the Republic of Moldova and Transnistria.

The memorandum's historical importance followed the need for both Tiraspol and Chişinău to normalize relations in the wake of the 1992 War of Transnistria.

It was signed in Moscow on 8 May 1997, by Moldovan President Petru Lucinschi and Transnistrian President Igor Smirnov,  with the mediation of the Russian Federation, Ukraine and Niels Helveg Petersen on behalf of the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe Mission in Moldova.

In compliance with the final clause of the memorandum, the relations between the Republic of Moldova and Transnistria shall be developed within the framework of a common state, within the borders of Moldovan SSR. The Russian Federation and Ukraine stated their readiness to become guarantors of the Transnistrian status observance, as well as of the memorandum's provisions. Chişinău and Tiraspol have decided to sustain the establishment of legal and state relations: the mutual decision coordination, inclusively regarding prerogatives delimitation and delegation, the safeguard of mutual security, the Transnistrian participation in the process of accomplishment of the foreign policy of the Republic of Moldova. The memorandum also gave Transnistria the right to independently conduct foreign economic activity, although later the memorandum provisions had widely diverging legal and political interpretations in Chişinău and Tiraspol.

The parties reaffirmed the 1992 ceasefire and requested that Russia, Ukraine and OSCE continue their mediation efforts. Both parties agreed that the Dniestr Region would have the right to unilaterally establish and maintain international contacts in the economic, scientific-technical and cultural spheres.

After three seasons with the Roosters, Jaspers left the club at the conclusion of his contract, playing on a try-out through pre-season before signing a one-year deal with Eisbären Berlin prior to the 2018–19 season on September 11, 2018. He played in just 9 games with Eisbären Berlin before opting to terminate his contract in order to join his sixth DEL club, Grizzlys Wolfsburg, on October 10, 2018. Jaspers played out the remainder of the regular season with Grizzlys, adding 8 points in 29 games, before leaving the club at the conclusion of the year.

Personal life

Abiras

Abiras () is a former settlement that was located on the northern bank of the Ubangi River at its source, the confluence of the Mbomou and Welle rivers. It was located opposite from the Congolese city of Yakoma in the area of the present-day Central African Republic. 

It was not until 1882 or ’83 that the German explorer Wilhelm Junker established that the Welle flowed into the Mbomou; the Belgian agent Alphonse Vangele established the Yakoma post in 1890. The Frenchman Gaston Gaillard then received a grant from the Yakoma leader Inkesse on the north bank and established Abiras on September 7, 1891. During the initial French settlement of central Africa, Abiras served as the capital of the French Congo's territory of Upper Ubangi () and then as the first capital of the colony of Ubangi-Shari (). It was replaced in 1906 first by Fort de Possel and then by Bangi, the present-day Bangui.

Coordinates are based on aerial photographs; a statement that in 1894, "a large French expedition had massed at Abiras (junction of the Wellé and Mbomu Rivers)"; and a statement "Elsewhere we learn that Abiras, at the mouth of the Mbomu...". There are a number of villages in the area in the present day, such as André.

A Man for All Seasons (1988 film)

A Man for All Seasons is a 1988 American made-for-television drama film about St. Thomas More, directed by and starring Charlton Heston. It is based on the play of the same name by Robert Bolt, which was previously adapted in the Academy Award winning 1966 film A Man for All Seasons. It was the first made-for-television film produced on behalf of the TNT (Turner Network Television) television network.

The film stars Heston as More, Vanessa Redgrave (who had a small cameo in the version from 1966) as his wife Alice More, Sir John Gielgud as Cardinal Thomas Wolsey, Martin Chamberlain as King Henry VIII, Richard Johnson as the Duke of Norfolk (historically, Thomas Howard, 3rd Duke of Norfolk), and Roy Kinnear as the narrator, "The Common Man", who was cut from the previous film. (The "Common Man' functions in the manner of a Greek chorus throughout the play, appearing at crucial moments and seeming to comment on the action.)

The film follows the original stage play more literally and runs half an hour longer than the 1966 film, and could be considered "stagier" than that film, which divided the Common Man into several more realistic characters and omitted portions of the play.

Plot
King Henry VIII wants to divorce his wife, and seeks the approval of the aristocracy. Sir Thomas More is a man of principle and reason, and is thus placed in a difficult position: should he stand up for his principles, risking the wrath of a corrupt King fond of executing people for treason? Or should he bow to the seemingly unstoppable corruption of King Henry VIII, who has no qualms about bending the law to suit his own needs?

Snow Dome (Canada)

Snow Dome is a mountain located on the Continental Divide in the Columbia Icefield, where the boundary of Banff National Park and Jasper National Park meets the border of Alberta and British Columbia in Canada.  The summit's elevation is .

The mountain was named in 1898 by J. Norman Collie because its permanently snow and ice-capped massif resembles a dome.

The mountain is one of two hydrological apexes of North America; it is a major triple divide between three great drainage basins.  Water falling on Snow Dome's summit may flow into streams that drain into the Pacific Ocean (via the Bush River and the Columbia River), the Arctic Ocean (via the Athabasca River), and Hudson Bay (via the North Saskatchewan River). The Dome Glacier flows to the north-east, the Stutfield Glacier to the north-west, the Columbia Glacier to the west and Athabasca Glacier flows to the east of the mountain.  The other apex is Triple Divide Peak in Glacier National Park, Montana, United States.

Masjid Haji Muhammad Salleh & Maqam Habib Noh (Jawi: مسجد حاج محمد صالح دان مقام حبيب نوح; Malay for Haji Muhammad Salleh Mosque & Maqam of Habib Noh) is a mosque and Muslim mausoleum respectively located at 37 Palmer Road, top of Mount Palmer, in Singapore. The mausoleum and its adjacent mosque are under the purview of Majlis Ugama Islam Singapura.

The Keramat is housed at the top of the hill at 37 Palmer Road, with 49 steps leading to it. The steps leading to Habib Noh's tomb, as well as the room housing the tomb is adorned with green and yellow furnishing such as curtains. Green and yellow are the chosen colours due to their significance in Islam, which is a recurring theme that is observed in other Muslim cemeteries as well. Behind the tomb of Habib Noh lies the tomb of Sayid Abdur Rahman bin Salim Al Habsyi, the cousin of Habib Noh.

Mythology 
Habib Noh died on 27 July 1866 in Telok Blangah, at the age of 78. When he died, his coffin was set to move to a Muslim cemetery but was unmovable until "someone remembered his wish to be laid to rest at the peak of Mount Palmer". Due to it, Habib Noh's grave was situated at Mount Palmer.

History 
After Habib Noh was buried at Mount Palmer, a keramat or shrine was built over the grave, which became a place of Muslim pilgrimage and attracted Haj visitors from afar afield as the Dutch East Indies and China on their way to Mecca.

A mausoleum was established in 1890 by Arabian philanthropist Syed Mohamad bin Ahmad Alsagoff. He was part of the Alsagoff family in Singapore and his descendants continued to maintain the tomb.

The makam sat on top of Mount Palmer, but following an 1890 refurbishment by Syed Mohamed bin Ahmed bin Abdul Rahman Alsagoff (Nong Chik), it was rebuilt with 52 stairs.

A merchant from Betawi (now Jakarta) and a good friend of Habib Nuh, Haji Muhammad Salleh built a surau, Surau Kampong Sambau, on Mount Palmer for Habib Nuh but it was not completed in time before Habib Noh's death. The surau was finally completed in 1902 but it was then destroyed and rebuilt into Haji Muhammad Salleh Mosque in 1903.

In July 2017, the mosque and mausoleum have been upgraded with better facilities and greater accessibility to the hilltop shrine. Key architectural features are still preserved.

Administration 
Habib Nuh's family (from his only son, Syed Ahmad) at first administered the makam through a trust fund known as Habib Nuh Trust Fund, with responsibility for the tomb's upkeep later transferred to the Muslims And Hindus Endowment Board in 1936, and finally in 1968 to the Majlis Ugama Islam Singapura.

Transportation
The mosque is accessible from Tanjong Pagar MRT station.

Taj Mohammed (Guantanamo Bay detainee)

Taj Mohammed is a citizen of Afghanistan who was held in extrajudicial detention in the United States Guantanamo Bay detention camps, in Cuba.
His Guantanamo Internment Serial Number was 902.
Joint Task Force Guantanamo counter-terrorism analysts estimate Mohammed was born in 1981.
He was repatriated in 2006.

According to Washington Post reporter, Mahvish Khan, who visited Taj Mohammed in detention with habeas counsel, he learned English within his four years of detention.

Press reports
According to the Associated Press the allegations against Nasir, in his Combatant Status Review Tribunal,
was accused of being a member of Lashkar-e-Tayyiba -- The Army of the Pure.

Mohammed told his Tribunal: "I was a shepherd, and I never can even go out very much, and I was always with my goats on the mountain, These are all lies about me."

On June 15, 2008, the McClatchy News Service published a series of articles based on interviews with 66 former Guantanamo captives.
Taj Mohammed
was one of the former captives who had an article profiling him.

Taj Mohammed reported being sexually harassed during his interrogations.
He reported that guards desecrated the Koran.
According to his McClatchy interviewer Taj Mohammed tried to retaliate:

According to the McClatchy profile of him Taj Mohammed was radicalized in Guantanamo and said he beat less religious captives.
The article said his lawyers, Paul Rashkind, was taken aback when told of these assertions, and questioned whether the McClatchy interviewer may have been taken in by an impostor.

According to the McClatchy interviewer, Taj Mohammed was mentored and given lessons in Arabic and the Koran by Yemeni captive Ali Abdullah Ahmed—one of the three men camp authorities reported committed suicide on June 10, 2006.

According to the McClatchy interviewer Taj Mohammed spent nine months in Camp four in 2005, the camp where "compliant" captives were allowed to mingle with other captives.  He was, however, demoted when he slapped a female doctor.

ABC News reported on February 22, 2010, that Taj Mohammed was employed by the Agribusiness Development Team, a Provincial Reconstruction Team development project with participation from the US military.
He works as a translator.  He is reported to be surprisingly fluent in both English and Spanish—learned in Guantanamo.

Namesakes

On January 16, 2010, the Department of Defense was forced to publish the names of the 645 captives held in the Bagram Theater Internment Facility.
One of the individuals on the list was named Taj Mohammed.

Estuary of Bilbao

The Estuary of Bilbao (Spanish: Ría de Bilbao / Basque: Bilboko Itsasadarra) lies at the common mouth of the rivers Nervion, Ibaizabal and Cadagua, which drain most of Biscay and part of Alava in the Basque Country, Spain. In this instance, the Spanish word estuario is used to describe what in English would normally be called part estuary, part tidal river. The estuary becomes a tidal river which extends  into the city of Bilbao, starting from the Bilbao Abra bay. It hosts the port of Bilbao throughout its length, although the Port Authority has recently restored most of the upper reaches to Bilbao and other municipalities for their urban regeneration. The port is now being transferred to the seaboard on the coast at Santurtzi and Zierbena.

Downstream from Bilbao the river divides its metropolitan area in its left bank  (Barakaldo, Sestao, Portugalete and Santurtzi) and right bank (Erandio, Leioa and Getxo).

The recovery of the estuary
The estuary and tidal river of Bilbao have always been a significant part of the city. Bilbao was born 700 years ago on the banks of the Nervión river as a trading village. It gradually expanded downstream until arriving at the sea. Unfortunately, the river reached high levels of contamination because of the industrial activities during the past century. In recent years, work has been undertaken to restore the condition of the estuary.

Paul W. Green

Paul W. Green (born March 6, 1952 in San Antonio, Texas) is a former justice of the Supreme Court of Texas.  He served on the court from November 2, 2004 to August 31, 2020.

Background 
Green graduated with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Business Administration in 1974 from the University of Texas at Austin and received his Juris Doctor in 1977 from St. Mary's University School of Law in San Antonio, with the designation as a "distinguished graduate."  Prior to joining the Supreme Court, Green was a justice for ten years on the Fourth Court of Appeals of Texas, based in San Antonio.

2004 election 
Green won the Republican nomination to his seat on the Court in a contested primary against then-Justice Steven Wayne Smith. Smith, though a new member of the Court at the time, was opposed by then Texas Governor Rick Perry. U.S. Senator John Cornyn, a former Texas Supreme Court Justice himself for seven years, also supported Green over Smith. In 2006, Smith sought to return to the Court by entering the primary contest against recent Perry appointee Don Willett, but Willett won the contested primary vote by a single percentage point.

2010 election 
Green ran for re-election in 2010. With 60 percent of the vote, he defeated William Moody and Tom Oxford in the general election.

2016 election 
Green won re-nomination in the Republican primary on March 1 against Rick Green (no relation), a former member of the Texas House of Representatives from Dripping Springs who is affiliated with David Barton in the group WallBuilders. Justice Green prevailed over Rick Green, 1,077,507 votes (52.1 percent) to 991,785 votes (47.9 percent). Green then defeated the Democrat Dori Contreras Garza in the November 8 general election, 4,758,334 (54.3 percent) to her 3,608,634 (41.2 percent). The Libertarian Party nominee, Tom Oxford, an earlier opponent of Justice Green, polled 288,504 votes (3.3 percent), and the Green candidate, Charles E. Waterbury received 107,731 (1.2 percent).

Retirement
In July 2020, Green announced his retirement from the court, effective August 31, 2020.

Ibaizabal

The Ibaizabal (wide river in Basque) is a river that drains southeastern Biscay to the Estuary of Bilbao. It is  long from its source at Elorrio to the Nervión, and it passes by the towns of Durango and Amorebieta and joins the Nervión river at Basauri. Both rivers run then together for a short length until they merge with the sea at Bilbao. It is disputed which river is the one that actually reaches Bilbao. It is commonly agreed that it is the Nervión, but there are some who argue that the Ibaizabal carries more water.

Cadagua

The Cadagua or Kadagua River  drains the Biscayan area of Encartaciones (), from the Castilian valley of Mena to Barakaldo and Bilbao, where it forms the border between these municipalities and ends at the Estuary of Bilbao. Another important town that this river crosses is Balmaseda.

The river takes its name from the small village where is located its first spring. Cadagua village is located in Valle de Mena (Burgos, Spain) surrounded by the beautiful landscape of "La Peña" mountains.

Four small hydropower plans produce electricity thanks to the river Cadagua. Until the last decades of the 20th century, this water power was also used by several mills that can be nowadays seen by the river basin.

Cadagua is a company which takes its name from this river. This company designs, plans and builds water treatment plants in order to improve the environment.

Thom Doucette

Thom "Ace" Doucette is an American blues harmonica player from the Sarasota, Florida region.  He is best known for having played with The Allman Brothers Band in the 1970s and later, although he was never a member.

In his early days as a musician, Doucette was a friend of bassist Berry Oakley; guitarist Dickey Betts occasionally ran into the pair in Florida clubs.  Once the Allman Brothers Band had formed with Oakley and Betts as members, Doucette became friendly with group leader Duane Allman, who bestowed upon him the moniker "The Ace".

Doucette appears on the group's second album, Idlewild South in 1970, playing harmonica and percussion.  In particular his harmonica is featured on the track "Don't Keep Me Wonderin'", where it plays along and against the slide guitar of Duane Allman; towards the end the two merge together.  Doucette joined the band frequently when they played the Fillmore East in New York, and consequently his harmonica solos are featured on two of the tracks from the classic 1971 live album At Fillmore East, those being "Done Somebody Wrong" and "You Don't Love Me".  (A solo on a third song, "Stormy Monday", was edited out of the original album release but restored in some later editions.)

Duane Allman tried to convince Doucette to formally join the group, but Doucette declined. As Gregg Allman recalled  of Doucette in his memoir, "I don't think he wanted the responsibility. I don't think he wanted to have to be anywhere at any time—Thom just kind of drifts, still to this day."  Doucette was one of the musicians who played at Duane Allman's funeral later in 1971.

Doucette would perform again with the band in the early 1990s, following the group's 1989 reformation; one of those appearances is included on the 1992 live album An Evening with the Allman Brothers Band: First Set.  Remaining a Sarasota resident, he sometimes appeared at individual Betts or Gregg Allman shows in the Florida area.  He again appeared with the full band at its 40th anniversary shows during its 2009 Beacon run in New York.

Besides his activities as a musician, Doucette also became a yoga instructor in the Sarasota area.
