Their number peaked at nearly 1 million (957 thousand people per 1989 census) near the time of the Soviet dissolution, but most have emigrated since then, usually to Germany or Russia. However, after a significant decrease from 1989 to 2009, by 2015 the number had seen a slight increase of a few thousand, the first time since the dissolution of the Soviet Union. Between 2009 and 2021 the German population had increased by 26.7%, though mostly due to changes in patterns of ethnic identity rather than actual population growth.

The Boll Weevil Song and 11 Other Great Hits
The Boll Weevil Song and 11 Other Great Hits is a studio album released by Brook Benton in 1961 on Mercury LP record MG 20641 (mono) and SR 60641 (stereo). The album appeared on Billboard's album charts in 1961 for 13 weeks, reaching position number 70. The orchestrations were done by Stan Applebaum, who also conducted the orchestra on the sessions.

Following the significant popularity of Benton's hit "The Boll Weevil Song," Mercury quickly arranged sessions which largely rely on American Caucasian folk music for material, although Benton took composition credit for most of the songs. The result is a mix of R&B and pop. Allmusic reviews the album favorably, but its reviewer, Greg Adams, wishes the rest of the album had the "fire" contained in the title track.

However, a rendition by Lead Belly recorded in 1934 by folklorist Alan Lomax led to it becoming well known. A 1961 adaptation by Brook Benton became a pop hit, reaching number two on the Billboard Hot 100.  Fats Domino's "Bo Weevil" is a different song.

Nathan Ellis
Nathan Trevor Ellis (born 22 September 1994) is an Australian cricketer. He made his international debut for the Australia cricket team in August 2021. He made history when he became the first cricketer to take a hat-trick on his debut in a Twenty20 International (T20I) match.

Hat-trick (cricket)
In cricket, a hat-trick occurs when a bowler takes three wickets from three consecutive deliveries. The deliveries may be interrupted by an over bowled by another bowler from the other end of the pitch or the other team's innings, but must be three consecutive deliveries by the individual bowler in the same match. Only wickets attributed to the bowler count towards a hat-trick; run outs do not count, although they can contribute towards a so-called team hat-trick, which is ostensibly a normal hat-trick except that the three successive deliveries can be wickets from any bowler in the team and with any mode of dismissal.

Hat-tricks are rare, and as such are treasured by bowlers.

The term is also sometimes used to mean winning the same competition three times in a row. For example, Australia winning the Cricket World Cup in 1999, 2003 and 2007, and Lancashire winning the County Championship in 1926, 1927 and 1928.
