Thorntree

Thorntree is a housing estate in east Middlesbrough, North Yorkshire, England. The former Thorntree Ward's population was 6,290, at the 2011 census. Since 2015, the estate shares a ward with Brambles Farm.

The housing estate was built in the late 1940s, in the lands of the former Thorntree Farm, after people started to move away from the terraced housing of Middlesbrough town centre and North Ormesby. It has a public park called Thorntree Park. The main roads of the estate are College Road and The Greenway.

Thorntree Ward had a population of 5,000 and was identified as the 3rd most deprived (out of 8,414) housing ward in England, in 2000. Since the Index of Multiple Deprivation started measuring smaller output areas with a mean population of 1,500, the three areas of Thorntree later ranked 192nd, 205th and 378th most deprived (out of 34,412) in England respectively.

Along with the Brambles Farm area, Thorntree was identified as the ward with the highest proportion of votes to Leave in the Brexit referendum of 2016. 82.5% of local residents voted to leave the EU while 17.5% supported remaining.

History
Much of Thorntree stands on what used to be a farmland. In all,  of Thorntree Farm and  of Low Bottoms Farm were purchased as land on which to site the estate.

Channel 4 - Secret Millionaire
The estate featured in the Channel 4, Reality TV show, Secret Millionaire, in 2006.  Millionaire Paul Williams, from the Green Energy company, Freetricity, and his 20-year-old son Ben lived undercover on Thorntree for 10 days.  At the end of the show, he gave £10,000 to local hairdresser, Gina Lawrence, to help her to train trainee hairdressers.  He also gave a further £10,000 to The Christian Centre (formerly Thorntree Community Church) Lunch Club, which they used to buy a minibus and fund the club.

Lovište

Lovište or Lovišće is small seaside town located in a cove near the western tip of the Pelješac peninsula in the Dubrovnik-Neretva county in Croatia. It has a population of 228. As it is situated at the very end of the peninsula, it was isolated before a road to the town was built, connecting it to Nakovana and beyond.

History
Although the settlement was founded in the 19th century, this area was first mentioned on February 15, 1333 in two charters of Bosnian ban Stjepan II Kotromanić in which lands ceded to the Republic of Ragusa are described including the cape of Loište ().

Throughout history, Lovište has been recorded in various variants of its current name: on one map by Anto Kapor (Stato di Ragusi, Bocca di fiume Narenta, isola di Lessina e Curzola, Venice, 1690) this area is recorded under the names "Capo Louiscta" and " P. Louischia". Lovište, also as a cape, is also mentioned on a map of Herzegovina made by a lieutenant B. Vukasović in 1788 in Vienna.

Lovište was founded in 1885 by settlers from the area of the island of Hvar who chose emigrating to Pelješac. These residents were later joined by settlers from Nakovana. The first settler in Lovište (1878) was Ante Visković from the Hvar village of Gdinj.

The first church in Lovište was built in 1926, and the cemetery in 1935. The school was founded in 1928 and continues working to this day, with a brief interruption during the Second World War. The settlement got electricity in 1963. Lovište was isolated from the mainland until 1973, when the first road was built; until then, the village could only be reached by sea. The water supply system first reached Lovište in 1980.

Although small in size, it has recently drawn a number of tourists who prefer the isolated and calm nature of the town. The elderly refer to it by the name Lovišće, while the official form Lovište has been standardized. During the summer months Lovište is popular with people seeking a quieter place to spend their summer vacations.

Demographics
According to the 2021 census, its population was 187.

2006 West Lancashire District Council election

The 2006 West Lancashire District Council election took place on 4 May 2006 to elect members of West Lancashire District Council in Lancashire, England. One third of the council was up for election and the Conservative party stayed in overall control of the council.

After the election, the composition of the council was:

Campaign
Before the election the Conservatives ran the council with a 4-seat majority over the Labour party. Most seats only had Conservative and Labour party candidates, with no Liberal Democrats standing in the election.

The Conservatives focused their campaign on crime and the environment, while targeting the Labour held wards of Burscough East, Burscough West and Scott. However Labour targeted the Conservative wards of Derby, Newburgh and Parbold, while criticising the Conservatives for holding a failed vote on transferring council housing.

Election result
The results saw the Conservatives increase their control of the council, which they had held since 2002. They gained 3 seats from Labour in Burscough East, Burscough West and Scott wards, with the Labour leader on the council, Alan Bullen, saying that it had "not been a good night".

Overall turnout in the election was 32.2%, which was up on 2003 but down from 2004.

Ken Craggs

Kenneth Craggs was an assistant football manager, and, briefly, a manager. He has held various coaching and scouting roles within the game.
Craggs served as assistant manager to Alan Mullery at Brighton and Hove Albion, as the Seagulls climbed from Division Three to Division One. He followed Mullery to Charlton Athletic in 1981, and took over the manager's job after Mullery left a year later.

Craggs was in charge when Charlton signed Danish international and former European Footballer of the Year, Allan Simonsen, although he also oversaw the sale of Paul Walsh, Viggo Jacobsen and Steve Harrison. He won his first game in charge 2-1 at Leicester City, but managed just four more wins in the opening 15 games of the season. After a 5-1 home defeat to Rotherham United he was told his job was safe by chairman Mark Hulyer, but was sacked two days later.

Craggs returned to Brighton as a scout for manager Jimmy Melia. He later scouted for Brian Horton at Manchester City, Huddersfield Town and Brighton.

Craggs is now a youth scout for Hull City.

Bore evacuator

A bore evacuator or fume extractor is a device which removes lingering gases and airborne residues from the barrel of an armored fighting vehicle's gun after firing, particularly in tanks and self-propelled guns. By creating a pressure differential in the barrel after the shell leaves, the bore evacuator causes most of the propellant gases and combustion residues to exit via the muzzle. Thus, when the breech opens for reloading, those gases and residues do not escape into the crew compartment and pose a hazard to the gun crew.

Description 

The evacuator is a passive device generally consisting of a ring of holes drilled into the barrel, surrounded by a cylindrical pressure reservoir that is sealed to the barrel's surface. When the gun is fired, high pressure gas generated by the burning propellant pushes the projectile forward. When the projectile passes the holes drilled into the barrel the propellant gasses are free to flow into the reservoir. When the projectile leaves the gun the pressure in the barrel drops and the gas stored in the reservoir flows back into the barrel. By aiming these holes forward, this flow gives the propellant gasses in the barrel enough forward momentum to draw them out of the barrel.

Various designs attempt to improve on the basic concept in any number of ways. One common change is to use two sets of holes, each designed specifically to be efficient at capturing or releasing the gas. In this case the forward set of holes is similar to the single-hole example, but a second rearward set of holes is added, using check valves (typically ball bearings in a pit) to allow the high-pressure gases in, but not out again. The system may be arranged to allow the gases to escape through the forward set of holes before the shell reaches it, causing a partial vacuum to develop directly behind the shell, aiding extraction.

For best results, the breech must be opened at the proper time, just as the forward momentum of the gases reaches its maximum, the peak flow. This means that bore extractors are normally used only on guns with semi-automatic or fully automatic actions, where the breech is opened and the shell ejected as part of the recoil process.

Evacuators reduce the chances of explosive propellant gases flowing backward into the turret, causing combustion as they mingle with oxygen, though this can still happen if the evacuator is poorly designed, poorly maintained, or damaged. Unprotected bore evacuators damaged by bullets have caused considerable problems in past conflicts, but up-armoring solved this problem.

Bore evacuators are a common feature on most modern tanks and some self-propelled guns. The French Leclerc tank is a counterexample; it instead uses overpressure from an internal compartment to force gases outward.

Johnny Summers (footballer)

Johnny Summers (10 September 1927 – 2 June 1962) was a football striker who scored 104 goals for Charlton Athletic.

Summers engineered one of the most remarkable comebacks in football history; Charlton were 5-1 down against Huddersfield with half an hour to go with only 10 men; they won 7-6 in the Second Division at The Valley, 21 December 1957. Johnny scored five goals, set up two and scored a six-minute hat-trick. Summers later revealed that he changed his boots at half-time after his old pair had started falling apart.

Johnny Summers played for Norwich City, Fulham and Millwall, prior to his Charlton career. He made his debut for Millwall in 1954 in the opening match of the 1954–55 season, against Brighton and Hove Albion, in front of a 25,000 plus crowd at The Den. In a 2–0 win, he disappointed the fickle crowd and after a few weeks disappeared into the Reserves, surfacing again the following January, as a left winger. From that time, he never looked back, and was one of the most fearsome and lethal forwards seen at The Den in years. His transfer to Charlton Athletic, for their last season in the old First Division, was regretted by Millwall fans, but seen as inevitable.

He died at the age of just 34 in 1962 of cancer.

Haze gray and underway

Haze gray and underway is a United States Navy saying that refers to surface ships in arduous duty at sea, in contrast to  submarines or naval units in ceremonial roles or in port.  It is a term of tribal pride and identification, e.g. surface ship crew use it to distinguish themselves from submarine crew.

United States Navy saying 

The United States Navy saying "haze gray and underway" refers firstly to the color "haze gray". Haze gray is a paint color scheme used by USN warships to make the ships harder to see clearly. The gray color reduces the contrast of the ships with the horizon, and reduces the vertical patterns in the ship's appearance.  It is the color of USN combatant and auxiliary surface ships, in contrast to the dark gray or black color of submarines, the bright colors of ceremonial vessels and aircraft, or the white of hospital ships and some U.S. Coast Guard cutters. Secondly, "underway", as opposed to being anchored, docked, alongside, moored, or otherwise attached to a fixed place.

Thus, "haze gray and underway" is shorthand for naval surface warships at sea. It is also used to refer to life in a vessel at sea with the working Navy, as opposed to shore postings.

Jude Law and a Semester Abroad

"Jude Law and a Semester Abroad" is the debut single by Brand New. It was released as the first and only single from their debut album, Your Favorite Weapon, first in the United States on November 11, 2002, before being released in the United Kingdom on June 2, 2003.

Songwriter Jesse Lacey described the track as being "about an ex-girlfriend who turned me on to Jude Law and that whole English thing". The artwork for the single is a photograph by Mike Dubin of the band performing live on Long Island.

Background

An early version of the song was first included in their self-released 2000 demo CD, before appearing as the second track on their debut album, Your Favorite Weapon. In early November 2002, the band began rerecording the song. The band stated that the track's music and lyrics would remain the same and that they were simply aiming to produce a higher quality recording, before sending it to be played on the radio. The reworked version of the track was made available as a digital download through the band's website on November 11, 2002.

The album version of the track was also released on CD and on 7" vinyl, exclusively in the United Kingdom through Eat Sleep Records on June 2, 2002. The original 2000 version of the song, from their first four-track demo, was included on their 2003 single "The Quiet Things That No One Ever Knows", from their follow-up album Deja Entendu.

The original album recording from 2001 was remastered and mixed by Emily Lazar and Joe LaPorta, as part of the 2011 reissue of Your Favorite Weapon.

Music video

The music video for "Jude Law and a Semester Abroad" was directed by Christian Winters and production company Fun Game Clique. The music video uses a mixture of both live and documentary footage, and was filmed across the band's tour in early 2002. The video premiered on MTV2 on July 30, 2002, and features the album version of the track, as opposed to the later rerecording.

Ozzy Osbourne Live E.P.

Ozzy Osbourne Live EP is a live EP released by Ozzy Osbourne in 1980. The EP contains live versions of the songs "Mr. Crowley", "Suicide Solution" and "You Said It All", all performed at a 1980 Southampton performance.

The original 1980 European pressing simply called the EP Mr. Crowley Live, named after the A-side.

Overview
After performing a show in Birmingham, the band hastily returned to Ridge Farm Studio to remix the song "Goodbye to Romance" for an anticipated single release. The next morning they were informed that Jet Records wanted a new song to release instead as a single. Rhoads, Daisley, and Kerslake quickly put together the song "You Said It All", with drummer Kerslake performing the guide vocal at soundcheck while a drunken Osbourne slept under the drum riser. The plans to release "You Said It All" as a single were later scrapped for unknown reasons, and this live version is the only known recording.

Princess Murong

Princess Murong (, personal name unknown) was a princess and queen consort of the Chinese state Northern Yan.  Her husband was the last emperor, Feng Hong (Emperor Zhaocheng), of that dynasty.

Presumably, she was from the Murong imperial clan of Northern Yan's predecessor state Later Yan, although her exact lineage is not known.  She was not Feng Hong's first wife; when Feng Hong was the Duke of Zhongshan under his brother Feng Ba (Emperor Wencheng), his wife was Duchess Wang, but after he seized the throne in 430, he created Lady Murong princess in 431 and her son Feng Wangren () as crown prince in 432, bypassing Duchess Wang's son Feng Chong (), the oldest among his sons.  Nothing further is known about Princess Murong, including whether she survived Northern Yan's destruction in 436 or her husband's death in 438.

ZM-87

The ZM-87 Portable Laser Disturber is a Chinese electro-optic countermeasure neodymium laser device. The ZM-87 was primarily intended to blind humans but was also reported to damage the photo-electric elements in laser rangefinders, videocameras and missile seekers. Roughly 22 of the devices were produced by the company Norinco before production ceased in 2000 as a result of the 1995 United Nations Protocol on Blinding Laser Weapons ban.

The ZM-87 is notable as one of only a few laser weapons ever produced. Controversy has also surrounded the United States allegations of possible recent use by Russian, Chinese, and North Korean armed forces.

Data
Power output: 15MW , 5 pulses per second, at two wavelengths.
Maximum range (blinding):  ( if a 7× magnifying optic is used)
Maximum range (temporary blinding): 
Weight (without battery): 
A battery supplies a portable electric energy converter which through a cable feeds a beam emitter  long mounted on a tripod. It has a gunsight. It resembles a heavy machine gun. A portable variant was also produced, resembling a QBZ-95 bullpup assault rifle with a telescopic sight attached.

History
Development of the ZM-87 began in the late 1980s.  The device was first publicly revealed at a defense exhibition in the Philippines in May 1995 and, soon after, in Abu Dhabi, where the weapon gained publicity.  In October 1995, during the United Nations Convention on Certain Conventional Weapons, Protocol IV, banning blinding laser weapons, was passed, making the ZM-87 illegal.  In April 1997, a United States Naval officer sustained a retinal injury consistent with exposure to this sort of laser fired from the Russian freighter Kapitan Man at a Canadian Forces helicopter in which he was a passenger.  This became known as the Strait of Juan de Fuca laser incident.  By December 2000, known production of ZM-87 had ceased.  However, in 2003 North Korea was reported to have used the ZM-87 to illuminate two United States Army Apache helicopters.

MediaMan

MediaMan is a general purpose collection organizer software for establishing a personal database of media collections (DVDs, CDs, books, etc.) developed by He Shiming.

Debuted in 2004 as freeware, MediaMan is the first software in its genre to create the concept of general purpose organizer, as people usually have to pay two licenses for a book organizer and a video organizer.

The license of MediaMan was freeware until late 2006, when the author decided to switch to shareware with a price of $39.95 for each license.

Amazon Web Services (later called E-Commerce Service and Product Advertising API) was used to retrieve product information automatically during the import process in MediaMan, which means it is also a part of the Amazon Associates program. However, the latest version of MediaMan (v3.10 series) no longer uses this API due to the efficiency guidelines introduced in October 2010.

MediaMan is also known as a Windows alternative to Mac OS X's Delicious Library.

Software development seems to have stalled with the last release of a beta of MediaMan 4.0 back in December 2013.  There have been a growing number of bugs in the software that has made the program unusable for some.  Communications with the developer have stopped, development and bug fixes have ceased, and the site has gone offline.

Harrison High School (also known as Farmington Harrison) was a four-year secondary institution located in Farmington Hills, Michigan. It was part of the Farmington Public School District serving students from the cities of Farmington, Farmington Hills, and a portion of West Bloomfield Township.

Harrison High School's mission was “to develop students to be caring and engaged learners who make informed decisions as they become internationally minded in their stewardship of the world and its resources." Harrison's mascot was the Hawk and its colors are green and gold. The school closed in 2019 and its building was repurposed into a recreation and performing arts center named The Hawk.

History
Harrison High School opened in September 1970 with Freshman, Sophomore and Junior classes. The Juniors were the first graduating class in June 1972. The school is named for Gerald V. Harrison who was superintendent of Farmington Public Schools from 1957 to 1967, a period of dramatic growth in the school district. Harrison was the third high school in the district, and the only one with a Freshman class.

In March 2016, the Farmington school board announced that the school was to close at the end of the 2018-2019 academic year, citing lower student populations in the city of Farmington Hills. The school building was purchased by the city and developed into a recreation and performing arts center named The Hawk in tribute to the school. Construction began in fall 2019 and the center opened on June 7, 2021.

Starting in the 2013-2014 school year, students had the opportunity to take IB classes at Harrison High School.  Prior to this, students wishing to obtain an IB diploma had to attend the International Academy in Bloomfield Hills.

Leó Frankel

Leó Frankel (; also Léo Fränkel; 25 February 1844,  – 29 March 1896, Paris) was a Hungarian socialist revolutionary and labour leader of Jewish origin.

Life 
He was born in 1844, in  (now part of Budapest, Hungary). Trained as a goldsmith, he first went to work in Germany in 1861, where he became involved with Ferdinand Lassalle's Allgemeiner Deutscher Arbeiterverein sometime between 1865 and 1866.  In 1867, he was appointed as the Paris correspondent for the Sozialdemokraten, a Lassallist journal published in Switzerland. In Paris he participated in the work of the First International, organizing German, Hungarian and other foreign workers within the city. Arrested in early 1870 for his political activity and being a member of the International, he was liberated by the revolution on 4 September 1870.  During the Prussian Siege of Paris, he, along with other Internationalists, was highly critical of the Government of National Defense's efforts to oppose the Prussians.  He also served as a member of the National Guard in defense of the city until its surrender to the Prussians on 28 January 1871.

On 26 March 1871 he was elected as a member of the Paris Commune. Upon the defeat of the Commune, wounded in its defence, the revolutionary escaped the impending death sentence to Switzerland, along with Elisabeth Dmitrieff. In 1871 he settled in London, where he joined the leadership of the First International.

He was extradited to Hungary by the Austrian police in 1876. From that point on, he was active organising the Hungarian workers' movement: he edited the German Language Arbeiter Wochen-Chronik and founded the Hungarian General Labour Party (1880)
He was convicted and sent to prison for a year and a half for the infringement of the prevailing press law in 1881. Upon his release he emigrated to  France once again.

He died in Paris in 1896. A commemorating obelisk was erected for him in Père Lachaise Cemetery  in Paris.

Honors
Hungary issued a commemorative postage stamp on 20 May 1951 on the 80th anniversary of Paris Commune.

Sanders of Oxford

Sanders of Oxford is an antique print shop situated on the High Street of the city of Oxford, England.

Although stores trading in prints were once common in the country, there are now only a handful left, Sanders being one of the largest and longest running outside London. The building, Salutation House, has traded in books and prints since at least the 1840s, when it was registered as a 'Bookseller and Auctioneer & appraiser' by its then proprietor Charles Richards.  In the 16th and 17th centuries the building housed the Saluation Inn and Thomas Wood was the proprietor of the Inn.  Sanders possesses a token issued by Wood in 1652.  The design shows a racket, a reference to the real tennis court at Oriel College.  The tavern later became a coffee house kept by James Houseman.

Sanders of Oxford was owned until his death in 2012 by Hon. Christopher Lennox-Boyd, second son of Conservative politician Alan Lennox-Boyd.

Notable former employees 

People who have worked at or been part owners of Sanders include:

 Henry Taunt, early photographer.
 Brian Aldiss, science fiction writer.

Nevada State Route 115

State Route 115 (SR 115) is a state highway outside the city of Fallon, Nevada in the United States.  Known as Harrigan Road, SR 115 starts at an intersection with SR 119 (Berney Road) and runs north to an intersection with Stillwater Avenue, paralleling U.S. Route 95 (US 95).

History
In the late 1950s, modern SR 115 was part of SR 2 and U.S. Route 50 Alternate, which began at SR 119 (then part of US 50) and followed Stillwater Avenue, East Street, and Center Street to end at Maine Street (also then US 50). This alternate route had previously been part of US 50, which was moved to follow present SR 119 and US 95 to Maine Street. US 50 has since been realigned again to leave Fallon on former SR 42 and turn southeast to rejoin the old alignment at Grimes Point.
