Kumzhinskoye gas field
The Kumzhinskoye gas field is a condensate gas field in the Nenets Autonomous Okrug of Russia. It lies within the Nenets Nature Reserve, in the Pechora River delta. A fire in an exploratory well, in November 1980, led to the use of a peaceful nuclear explosion in 1981 as an attempt to control the fire. Despite this, hydrocarbon escape occurred after the 37kt explosion, needing further relief well drilling.

As of the mid-2010s, the licence to the gas field is held by CH Invest Company. The size of the field is 225km2, and is estimated to annually produce 3.2 billion cubic metres of natural gas and 170,000 tonnes a year of gas condensate.

Also present are large breeding grounds for the Atlantic Walrus.   The reserve is situated in the Zapolyarny District of Nenets Autonomous Okrug.  It was formally established in 1997, and covers and area of 313,400 ha (1,210 sq mi), of which 181,000 ha (700 sq mi) is over water.

The race was won by Matt Kenseth, making a car numbered 17 winning the race for the first time in 20 years since Darrell Waltrip's win back in 1989 and the first Daytona 500 win for Roush Fenway Racing. The race was called off with 48 laps to go after a severe rainstorm that had been lingering throughout the area hit the track.

Xvid
Xvid (formerly "XviD") is a video codec library following the MPEG-4 video coding standard, specifically MPEG-4 Part 2 Advanced Simple Profile (ASP). It uses ASP features such as b-frames, global and quarter pixel motion compensation, lumi masking, trellis quantization, and H.263, MPEG and custom quantization matrices.

Xvid is a primary competitor of the DivX Pro Codec. In contrast with the DivX codec, which is proprietary software developed by DivX, LLC, Xvid is free software distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License. This also means that unlike the DivX codec, which is only available for a limited number of platforms, Xvid can be used on all platforms and operating systems for which the source code can be compiled.

Trellis quantization
Trellis quantization is an algorithm that can improve data compression in DCT-based encoding methods.  It is used to optimize residual DCT coefficients after motion estimation in lossy video compression encoders such as Xvid and x264.  Trellis quantization reduces the size of some DCT coefficients while recovering others to take their place.  This process can increase quality because coefficients chosen by Trellis have the lowest rate-distortion ratio.  Trellis quantization effectively finds the optimal quantization for each block to maximize the PSNR relative to bitrate.  It has varying effectiveness depending on the input data and compression method.

Unusual notrump
In the card game of bridge, the unusual notrump is a conventional overcall showing a two-suited hand. It was originally devised by Al Roth in 1948 with Tobias Stone, to show the minor suits after the opponents opened in a major.

The convention concept is now generally extended to show the "two lowest unbid" suits. Thus, over 1♣, 2NT shows diamonds and hearts; and over 1♦, it shows clubs and hearts. In addition to succinctly describing the hand to the partner, it deprives the opponents of bidding space, i.e. it has a preemptive effect. A drawback is that it provides the opponents with information about the strength and distribution of the overcaller's hand, potentially enabling improved declarer play should they secure the contract.

Glossary of contract bridge terms
These terms are used in contract bridge, using duplicate or rubber scoring. Some of them are also used in whist, bid whist, the obsolete game auction bridge, and other trick-taking games. This glossary supplements the Glossary of card game terms.
