1937 Virginia lieutenant gubernatorial election
The 1937 Virginia lieutenant gubernatorial election was held on November 2, 1937, in order to elect the lieutenant governor of Virginia. Democratic nominee and incumbent President pro tempore of the Senate of Virginia Saxon W. Holt defeated Republican nominee Samuel A. Reynolds and Prohibition nominee R. L. Alter.

Lieutenant Governor of Virginia
The lieutenant governor of the Commonwealth of Virginia is a constitutional officer of the Commonwealth of Virginia. The lieutenant governor is elected every four years along with the governor and attorney general.

The office is currently held by Ghazala Hashmi, who was elected in 2025 and is the second woman and fourth person of color to hold this position. The governor and lieutenant governor are elected separately and thus may be of different political parties. The lieutenant governor serves as the president of the Senate of Virginia and is first in the line of succession to the governorship; if the governor dies, resigns, or otherwise leaves office, the lieutenant governor becomes governor. In Virginia, the governor is not permitted to serve consecutive terms, but the lieutenant governor may do so, and has no term limit.

CCGS Naalak Nappaaluk is an offshore oceanographic and hydrographic survey vessel for the Canadian Coast Guard. The vessel replaces CCGS Hudson. It is described as "Canada's new flagship ocean research ship".

Naalak Nappaaluk was initially expected to cost CAD$109 million, with delivery scheduled for 2017. However, the project's budget increased to CAD$1.28 billion, and delivery was delayed by eight years, pushing it to 2025.

The ship was launched at Vancouver, British Columbia, in August 2024. Sea trials were underway as of June 2025. It was formally delivered to the Canadian Coast Guard at a ceremony at Vancouver Shipyards on November 13, 2025. Crew training is scheduled to occur in Patricia Bay, after which the vessel is scheduled to work out of the Bedford Institute of Oceanography in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia.

Research vessel
A research vessel (RV or R/V) is a ship or boat designed, modified, or equipped to carry out research at sea. Research vessels carry out a number of roles which can be combined into a single vessel but others require a dedicated vessel. Due to the demanding nature of the work, research vessels may be constructed around an icebreaker hull, allowing them to operate in polar waters.

The battle involved a 521-mile (839-km) march through the Libyan Desert from Alexandria, Egypt, to the eastern port city of Derna, which was defended by a much larger force.

The Battle of Derna and the broader First Barbary War highlighted the challenges faced by the United States in dealing with piracy and asserting its interests in the Mediterranean during the early years of its existence as a nation. It was also the first foreign military intervention in U.S. history.

Libyan Desert
24°N 25°E﻿ / ﻿24°N 25°E﻿ / 24; 25

The Libyan Desert (not to be confused with the Libyan Sahara) is a geographical region filling the northeastern Sahara Desert, from eastern Libya to the Western Desert of Egypt and far northwestern Sudan approximately 1,300,000 km2. On medieval maps, its use predates today's Sahara, and parts of the Libyan Desert include the Sahara's most arid and least populated regions; this is chiefly what sets the Libyan Desert apart from the greater Sahara. The consequent absence of grazing, and near absence of waterholes or wells needed to sustain camel caravans, prevented Trans-Saharan trade between Kharga (the Darb al Arbein) close to the Nile, and Murzuk in the Libyan Fezzan. This obscurity saw the region overlooked by early European explorers, and it was not until the early 20th century and the advent of the motor car before the Libyan Desert started to be fully explored.
