Pascal Siakam

Pascal Siakam is a professional basketball player from Cameroon. He plays forward for the Toronto Raptors.

Siakam grew up in Douala, Cameroon. He did not start playing baskeball until he was sixteen. He started after attending an annual  basketball camp that his friends went to and got noticed by some of the organizers. He then received an invitation to attend a Basketball Without Borders camp in South Africa. One thing lead to the other and he ended up in God’s Academy, a prep school in Lewiston, Texas. He could not  speak English and went through a Culture Shock, trying to get used to American customs and fast food. It was also tough for him physically.  As he grew taller  and developed some basketball skills he started standing out because of his inner drive.  He would not let an opportunity to go by, chasing difficult balls and impossible rebounds. He was always working harder at it than the others.

Welsh orthography

The Welsh language is written in a version of the Latin alphabet. It traditionally has of 28 letters, of which eight are digraphs treated as single letters for collation:

 a, b, c, ch, d, dd, e, f, ff, g, ng, h, i, (j), l, ll, m, n, o, p, ph, r, rh, s, t, th, u, w, y

The letter "j" is now often included in the alphabet, between "i" and "l", due to its use in several loanwords from English (especially the common surname Jones ). The letters "k", "v", "x" and "z" are used in some technical terms, like kilogram , volt , xeroser and zero , but in all cases can be, and often are, replaced by Welsh letters: cilogram , folt , seroser and sero. The letter "k" was in common use until the 16th century, but was dropped at the time of the publication of the New Testament in Welsh, William Salesbury responding to critics: "C for K, because the printers have not so many as the Welsh requireth". This change was not popular at the time

The most common diacritic is the circumflex, which is used in some cases to mark a long vowel.

Decimal degrees

Decimal degrees are the latitude and longitude geographic coordinates as decimal fractions.

Positive latitudes are north of the equator and less than zero latitudes are south of equator. Positive longitudes are east of the prime meridian and less than zero longitudes are to the west of the prime meridian. Latitude and longitude are usually listed as "Latitude, Longitude", in that order.

Precision
The radius of the semi-major axis (the distance from the center of Earth to the outside at the equator line) of Earth at the equator is 6,378,137.0 meters resulting in a circumference of 40,075,161.2 meters. The number of decimal places required for a particular precision at the equator is:

Frankincense

Frankincense is an aromatic resin used in incense and perfumes. It is obtained from trees of the genus Boswellia in the family Burseraceae. 

Frankincense is tapped from the scraggly but hardy trees by striping (slashing the bark). The resin then bleeds out and hardens. The hardened streaks of resin are called tears.

Is There Anybody Out There? The Wall Live 1980–81

Is There Anybody Out There? The Wall Live 1980–81 is a live album comprised of recordings of Pink Floyd's tour of The Wall.

Track listing

Background 
Is There Anybody Out There? contains live versions of the songs off of The Wall. Some extra tracks are added, "What Shall We Do Now?" and "The Last Few Bricks". These songs were originally slated to be on the original album, but they were cut because of the album's length. "The Last Few Bricks" is an instrumental bridge between "Another Brick in the Wall, Part 3" and "Goodbye Cruel World". The song includes themes from previous songs, including "Young Lust", "Empty Spaces", "Don't Leave Me Now", "What Shall We Do Now?", and "The Happiest Days of Our Lives". The purpose of the bridge is to give the bricklayers more time to place the, as the title implies, last few bricks. The album also includes two spoken tracks, "MC: Atmos" and "Master of Ceremonies".

Shine On You Crazy Diamond

Shine On You Crazy Diamond is a nine part composition by Pink Floyd. It bookends their 1975 studio album Wish You Were Here.

Background 
Shine On is a tribute song to Pink Floyd's former member, Syd Barrett. Barrett was removed from the band for his drug use and mental problems, which interfered with his ability to perform and develop as a musician. He was replaced by David Gilmour, who was a friend of Barrett's.

Barrett incident 
One day during recording, Barrett decided to stop by Abbey Road Studios to see the band. At first, the band could not recognize him. He was now heavyset, and had shaved his hair and eyebrows. Once the band had realized Barrett's identity, Roger Waters was so distressed he burst into tears. Somebody asked to play the song again for Barrett, but he had said another play was unnecessary. Barrett said the song sounded "a bit old".

Composition

Parts I-V 
Part I (Wright, Waters, Gilmour; from 0:00 to 3:54) There are no lyrics in Part I. The section begins with a fade in of chords created with synthesizers and wine glasses. Wright plays a synthesizer passage, which leads into a long guitar solo by Gilmour. The wineglass-synth chords fade into the background.

Part II (Wright, Waters, Gilmour; from 3:54 to 6:27) Part II opens with a four-note theme, called Syd's theme by fans. This repeats for much of the part. Mason and Waters begin playing after the fourth play of the theme. 

Part III (Wright, Waters, Gilmour; from 6:27 to 8:42) Part III opens with a synthesizer solo from Wright. This part includes another guitar solo by Gilmour. 

Part IV (Wright, Waters, Gilmour; from 8:42 to 11:10) Part IV has vocals. Waters and Gilmour sing the vocals, with backup singers Venette Fields and Carlena Williams.

Part V (Wright, Waters, Gilmour; from 11:10 to 13:32) Two guitars play an arpeggio version of the theme for a minute. Dick Parry begins playing saxophone until the part ends. The music fades into synthesizer sounds, resembling an elevator. The song fades to "Welcome to the Machine".

Parts VI-IX 
Part VI (Wright, Waters, Gilmour; from 0:00 to 4:39) Howling wind fades in from "Wish You Were Here". As the wind fades away, Gilmour comes in with bass guitar. Waters adds to Gilmour's bass with his own creating a riff pattern. Gilmour and Wright harmonize with lap-steel guitar and synth at the two minute mark. The song's time signature changes to reintroduce the vocals.

Part VII (Wright, Waters, Gilmour; from 4:39 to 5:49) The vocals are introduced again. Same personnel as Part IV. 

Part VIII (Wright, Waters, Gilmour; from 5:49 to 9:17) A high-noted riff plays to bridge the parts. The song switches to a funk progression. The section fades into Wright's synthesizer solo.

Part IX (Wright; from 9:17 to 12:28) A lengthy synthesizer solo. The solo plays throughout the part, and during the fade-out, a keyboard part of "See Emily Play" can be heard, one of Barrett's signature Floyd tracks.

Megathrust earthquake

A megathrust earthquake occurs at subduction zones at destructive convergent plate boundaries, where one tectonic plate is forced underneath another. These interplate earthquakes are the planet's most powerful, with moment magnitudes that can exceed 9.0. Since 1900, all earthquakes of magnitude 9.0 or greater have been megathrust earthquakes. No other type of known terrestrial source of tectonic activity has produced earthquakes of this scale.
