In 1842, the Treaty o Nanking wis signed, an the name Hong Kong wis first recordit on offeecial documents tae encompass the entirety o the island.

("bi god's favour a sunny an appropriate place wis providit, a refuge secludit as he wished, an whatever wis previously promised tae be set afore those who seek the kinrick an justice o god").

Mateh Yehuda Regional Cooncil
Mateh Yehuda Regional Council (מועצה אזורית מטה יהודה, Mo'atza Azorit Mateh Yehuda) is a regional council in the Jerusalem Destrict o Israel. In 2008 it wis hame tae 36,200 fowk.
The name o the regional cooncil stems frae the fact that its territory wis pairt o the land allottit tae the Tribe o Judah, accordin tae the Bible.
Places an communities
The regional cooncil admeenisters moshavim, kibbutzim, Arab veelages an ither rural settlements that lie tae the north an sooth o Jerusalem-Tel Aviv heich-gate, frae Jerusalem tae Latrun an up tae aurie o Beit Shemesh (Ha'ela Valley) in the Sooth.
The settlements vary greatly in their character. There are releegious, secular an mixed Jewish communities, twa Arab communities, an the anerlie mixed Arab-Jewish veelage in Israel - Neve Shalom. Mony o the Jewish communities in the Mateh Yehuda destrict wur established bi immigrants frae Indie, Yemen, Iraq, Iran an kintras in Eastren Europe.
Pairtnerships
The regional cooncil haes sister ceety-like pairtnerships wi these municipalities:
4 Mairch
The 4t o Mairch is the 63rd day o the year (64t in lowp years) in the Gregorian Calendar, wi 302 days ti come.
Mairtin (bird)

Venus
Venus (seembol: ) is the seicont planet frae the Sun, orbitin it ivery 224.7 Yird days. The planet is named efter the Roman goddess o luve an beauty. Efter the Muin, it is the brichtest naitural object in the nicht sky, reachin an apparent magnitude o −4.6, bricht enough tae cast shadaes. Acause Venus is an inferior planet frae Yird, it niver appears tae ventur far frae the Sun: its elongation reaches a maximum o 47.8°. Venus reaches its maximum brichtness shairtly afore sunrise or shortly efter sunset, for which reason it haes been referred tad bi auncient culturs as the Mornin Star or Evenin Star.
Venus is a terrestrial planet an is whiles cried Yird's "sister planet" acause o thair seemilar size, gravity, an bouk composeetion (Venus is baith the closest planet tae Yird an the planet closest in size tae Yird). Houiver, it haes an aa been shawn tae be very different frae Yird in ither respects. It haes the densest atmosphere o the fower terrestrial planets, consistin o mair nor 96% carbon dioxide. The atmospheric pressure at the planet's surface is 92 times that o Yird's. Wi a mean surface temperatur o 735 K, Venus is bi far the hettest planet in the Solar Seestem. It haes na carbon cycle tae lock carbon back intae rocks an surface features, nor daes it seem tae hae ony organic life tae absorb it in biomass. Venus is shrouded bi an opaque layer o heichly reflective cloods o sulfuric acid, preventin its surface frae bein seen frae space in veesible licht. Venus micht hae possessed oceans in the past, but thir wad hae vaporized as the temperatur rose due tae a runaway greenhoose effect. The watter haes maist probably photodissociated, an, acause o the lack o a planetary magnetic field, the free hydrogen haes been swept intae interplanetary space bi the solar wind. Venus's surface is a dry desertscape interspersed wi slab-lik rocks an periodically refreshed bi volcanism.

The strategic location o Rostock provoked the envy o its rivals. Danes an Swades occupeed the ceety twice, first durin the Thirty Years' War (1618–48) an again frae 1700 tae 1721. Later, the French, unner Napoleon, occupeed the toun for aboot a decade till 1813. It wis in nearbi Lübeck-Ratekau that Blücher, who wis actually born in Rostock an who wis ane o few generals tae fecht on efter the Battle o Jena, surrendered tae the French in 1806.
