The Rerrick Poletergeist
Telfair's tract, entitle't "A TRUE RELATION OF AN Apparition, Expressions and Actings, OF A SPIRIT, Which Infested the House of Andrew Mackie in Ring-Croft of Stocking, in the Paroch of Rerrick, in the Stewartry of Kirkcudbright, in Scotland. By Mr. Alexander Telfair, Minister of that Paroch: and Attested by many other Persons, who were also Eye and Ear-Witnesses", wis publisht bi an Edinburgh prenter in 1696 an selt at the shap o George Mosman. Telfair's account ascribit the acteevity til a "noisy violent spirit" an in modren times the maiter his been refert tae as the "Ringcroft Poltergeist", the "Rerrick (or Rerwick) Poltergeist", or the "Mackie Poltergeist".
The 4 October 1890 issue o the Saturday Review newspaper rejectit Telfair's story as fowklair an "a curious mixture of obvious maked imposture", sayin "Five ministers, a few larids, and a nummer of farmers signed this account, in which there is not a single suspicion breathed that the business was merely a practical joke. Mr Telfair recites it as an argument against atheism, and for other reasons of edification.
Sacheverell Sitwell (1897-1988) in his beuk Poltergeists (1940) wrate that events descrived in the story wis creautit bi ane o Mackie's childer uisin ventriloquism. Sitwell observes that a vyce waukent MacKie, tellin him he wad "be troubled til Tuesday" an that if Scotland dinna "repent" it wad "trouble every family in the land". Accordin tae Sitwell, "Here, again there can be no doubt whatever that the actual Poltergeis was one of the children in the family. It had, in fact, learnt to ventriloquise. This, though, does not make the myster any less unpleasant".
Academics, sic as historians Lizanne Henderson an Ole Grell, wrate that Telfair's tract wis intendit tae communicate til a "less sophisticated audience an coonterakt whit was felt amang clergymen o the time tae be the dangerous influences o skepticism, atheism, an deism. Henderson an Grell note Telfair's tract's statit purpose tae redargie "the prevailing Spirit of Atheism and Infidelity in our time, denying both in Opinion and Practice the Existence of Spirits, either of God or Devils; and consequently a Heaven and Hell..."
Ring-Croft of Stocking, descrieved as "a mailin on the tapside o Auchencairn" wis locatit in the pairish o Rerrick. It is said that a deid tree is aw that remeens o the MacKie ferm nouadays.

Positron
The positron or antielectron is the antipairticle or the antimatter coonterpairt o the electron. The positron haes an electric charge o +1e, a spin o ½, an haes the same mass as an electron. When a law-energy positron collides wi a law-energy electron, annihilation occurs, resultin in the production o twa or mair gamma ray photons (see electron–positron annihilation).
Positrons mey be generatit bi positron emission radioactive decay (throu waik interactions), or bi pair production frae a sufficiently energetic photon.

Ford Zephyr
The Ford Zephyr wis a caur manufactured bi the Ford Motor Company in the Unitit Kinrick. Atween 1950 an 1972, it wis sauld as a mair pouerful sax-cylinder saloon tae complement the fower-cylinder Ford Consul: frae 1962 the Zephyr itself wis offered in baith fower- an sax-cylinder versions.
The Zephyr an its luxury variant, the Zephyr Zodiac which appeared in 1955, wur the lairgest passenger caurs in the Breetish Ford range frae 1950 till thay wur replaced in 1971 bi a lairger Ford Consul an Granada.
History
The Mark I Ford Consul an Zephyr models wur first displayed at the Earl's Court motor shaw in 1950. Thay wur the first tae uise in mass production the MacPherson Strut independent front suspension which is still widely uised the day. Production began wi the Consul on Januar 1, 1951. The Mark I model ran till 1956. Frae Aprile 1956 the Mark II Consul, Zephyr an Zodiac went on sale an wur kent as the Three Graces. The Mark II range wis a big seller an finished its run in 1962 when frae Aprile that year the Mark III Zephyr 4, Zephyr 6 an Zodiac went on sale; the Consul name wis dropped, the caur's place in the Ford UK line-up bein filled bi the first fower-cylinder Ford Zephyr. While the Mark II Zephyr an Zodiacs haed shared the same body (the Consul haed shorter front guards an bulkhead), the new Zodiac an Zephyrs launched in 1962 shared few body panels. Wi the Mark III, Ford finally sortit oot problems that haed beset previous models (Mark I axles an Mark II gearboxes wur parteecular weaknesses) an the Mark III proved tae be the maist popular an durable o the range (it is said that possibly nae ither UK-based caur haed unnergane as much pre-production testin). The model sauld at a rate equal tae or better nor the Mark II baith in the UK an overseas, but wis in production for a shorter time. During the last months o production, an up-mercat Executive version wis addit tae the Mark III range, an examples o thir are the day hichtlie sought efter. The Mk III range wis discontinued in Januar 1966 (mony believe prematurely gien the caurs' success) an the completely new Zephyr / Zodiac Mark IV range wis released in Aprile 1966. This caur wis somewha ahead o its time wi a design that anticipatit the later Consul/Granada range wi V-ingines an independent rear suspension, but the research an development o the model wis very rushed an this unfortunately reflectit in its durability.
Awtho the Ford Zephyr niver saw American production, caurs wur importit intae the US an the name itself haes appeared on ither American Ford-relatit caurs: the Mercury Zephyr wis an upscale version o the Ford Fairmont, an the Lincoln Zephyr began its seicont production run in 2006 (the first wis frae 1936 tae 1942).
Gamma ray
Gamma radiation, cried gamma rays an aa, an denotit bi the Greek letter γ, refers tae electromagnetic radiation o extremely heich frequency an tharefore heich energy per photon. Gamma rays are ionisin radiation, an are sicweys biologically hazardous. Thay are classically produced bi the decay frae heich energy states o atomic nuclei (gamma decay), but are forby creatit bi ither processes. Paul Villard, a French chemist an physicist, discovered gamma radiation in 1900, while studyin radiation emitted frae radium. Villard's radiation wis named "gamma rays" bi Ernest Rutherford in 1903.

The ceety wis earlier kent in Turkis as Suhum-Kale, which can be read tae mean 'watter-sand fortress'. Alternatively, it haes been proposed that the ceety haed already afore been kent as Tskhumi in Georgian, an that aw thir forms (includin the Turkis) fynd thair oreegin herein. Tskhumi in turn then is derived frae the Svan leid wird for 'het', or the Georgian wird for 'hornbeam tree'.

History
Bizerte is kent as the auldest an maist European ceety in Tunisie. It wis foondit aroond 1000 BC bi Phoeniciens frae Tyre. It is forby kent as the last toun tae remain unner French control efter the rest o the kintra wan its independence frae Fraunce.
Initially a sma Phoenician harbour, the ceety came unner the influence o Carthage efter the defeat o Agathocles durin the Punic Wars. The ceety wis then occupied bi the Romans, unner the name o Hippo Diarrhytus or Hippo Zarrytus.
Bizerte wis successively conquered bi the Arabs in 647 (who gave the ceety its current name), bi the troops o Charles V o the Holy Roman Empire in 1535, an then bi the Turks in 1574. The ceety then became a corsair harbour an struggled against the French an the Venetians.
Wi the occupation o Tunisie in 1880, Fraunce gained control of Bizerte an built a lairge naval harbour in the ceety.
In 1924, efter the French government officially recognised the Soviet Union (USSR), the wastren military fleet o White Roushie that haed been kept in the port o Bizerte wis returned tae the Soviet government. The ships niver moved frae the port an finally wur sauld there as scrap metal.

Cosmic ray
Cosmic rays are very heich-energy particles, mainly oreeginatin ootside the Solar Seestem. Thay mey produce showers o seicontary particles that penetrate an impact the Yird's atmosphere an whiles even reach the surface. Componed primarily o heich-energy protons an atomic nuclei, thay are o mysterious origin. Data frae the Fermi space telescope (2013) hae been interpreted as evidence that a significant fraction o primary cosmic rays originate frae the supernovae o massive starns. Houiver, this is nae thoucht tae be thair anly soorce. Active galactic nuclei probably an aa produce cosmic rays.
Ranunculales
Ranunculales is an order o flouerin plants. O necessity it contains the faimily Ranunculaceae, the buttercup faimily, because the name o the order is based on the  name o a genus in that faimily. Ranunculales belongs tae a paraphyletic group kent as the basal eudicots. It is the maist basal clade in this group; in ether wirds, it is  sister tae the remainin eudicots.
Taxonomy
The Angiosperm Phylogeny Group recognized seven faimilies in Ranunculales in their APG III system, published in 2009. In the preceding APG II system, they offered the option o three segregate faimilies as shown below.
Note: "+ ..." = optionally separate faimily (that mey be split aff frae the precedin faimily).
Unner this definition, well-kent memmers o Ranunculales include buttercups, clematis, columbines, delphiniums, an poppies.
The Cronquist system (1981) also recognised the order, but placed it in the subclass Magnoliidae, in  class Magnoliopsida [= dicotyledons]. It uised this circumscription:
In the Cronquist system, the Papaveraceae an Fumariaceae (includin the plants in the optional faimily Pteridophyllaceae) were treatit as a separate order Papaverales, placed in this same subclass Magnoliidae. The Cronquist circumscription o Ranunculales is nou kent tae be polyphyletic. Sabiaceae is in a clade o basal eudicots separate frae Ranunculales. Coriariaceae is now placed in the order Cucurbitales.
A phylogeny o Ranunculales wis published in 2009, based on molecular phylogenetic analysis o DNA sequences. The authors o this paper revised the subfaimilies an  tribes o the order.
