Kosovo at the Mediterranean Games
Kosovo first appeared at the quadrennial Mediterranean Games event in 2018. Kosovo had declared independence from Serbia in 2008. The Olympic committee of Kosovo was recognised by the International Olympic Committee six years later in December 2014.

Since their first appearance at the 2018 Mediterranean Games in Tarragona, Kosovo athletes won ten medals, in which of them, nine in judo and one bronze medal in Boxing.

As of 2022, Kosovan athletes have won a total of 10 medals. The country's ranking in the history of the Games is the 21st place respectively.

Kosovo's capital, Pristina, was confirmed as the host city for the 2030 Mediterranean Games by the International Committee of Mediterranean Games on 8 September 2023.

Mediterranean Games
The Mediterranean Games is a multi-sport event organised by the International Committee of Mediterranean Games (CIJM).

1963 Hanmer explosion
The 1963 Hanmer explosion occurred in the afternoon of August 1, 1963, in the town of Hanmer in the Canadian province of Ontario. An unattended fuel truck spilled gasoline into the basement of the Matte service station while filling its underground tanks, and the fuel was later ignited when an automatic sump pump switched on.

The explosion destroyed the service station, as well as the attached lunch counter. Eight people, including five children, were killed in the blast and subsequent fire, and a further six people were injured. The explosion was the worst disaster in the region since the 1951 Coniston bus crash.

A coroner's jury later found Shell Canada, as well as fuel truck driver Edward Thorpe, partly responsible for the explosion. Thorpe was also praised for quickly moving the fuel truck to prevent a second explosion.

Shell Canada
Shell Canada Limited (French: Shell Canada Limitée) is the principal Canadian subsidiary of British energy major Shell plc and one of Canada's largest integrated oil companies.

Shell Energy North America's Canadian operational unit, Shell Canada, maintains a regional corporate office in Calgary, Alberta. Shell Canada also maintains a major office in Toronto, Ontario.
Harrington (novel)
Harrington is an 1817 novel by Anglo-Irish novelist Maria Edgeworth. The novel was written in response to a letter from a Jewish-American reader who complained about Edgeworth's stereotypically anti-semitic portrayals of Jews in Castle Rackrent (1800), Belinda (1801), The Absentee (1812), and her Moral Tales (1801) for children. The novel is an autobiography of a "recovering anti-Semite", whose youthful prejudices are undone by contact with various Jewish characters, particularly a young woman. It draws parallels between the religious discrimination of the Jews and the Catholics in Ireland. Set between the passing of the Jewish Naturalisation Act 1753 and the Gordon Riots of 1780, the timeframe highlights these connections.

The Absentee (novel)
The Absentee is a novel by Maria Edgeworth, published in 1812 in Tales of Fashionable Life, that expresses the systemic evils of the absentee landlord class of Anglo-Irish and the desperate condition of the Irish peasantry. There are many turns of plot and much information about Ireland as well as Irish dialect and details of shallow London fashionable life, and the egregious results of the propertied classes treating their Irish lands as a resource to be exploited rather than as a relationship among classes and with the land. In this respect, it addresses similar themes to her first novel, Castle Rackrent.

Malcolm McGregor
Malcolm McGregor (October 13, 1892 – April 29, 1945) was an American actor of the silent era. McGregor appeared in more than 50 films between 1922 and 1936. He was born in Newark, New Jersey and died in Hollywood, California.

McGregor starred as the young whaling captain in the 1923 film version of Ben Ames Williams' All the Brothers Were Valiant, perhaps the highlight of a busy career that mostly found the handsome, clean-cut actor supporting such glamorous female stars as Corinne Griffith, Florence Vidor, and Evelyn Brent. Like so many of his contemporaries, McGregor's career quickly waned after the changeover to sound and he was reduced to playing second fiddle to Bela Lugosi in the 1932 Mascot serial The Whispering Shadow. McGregor retired after playing a gangster in a low-budget screen version of radio's Special Agent K-7 (1937). McGregor reportedly died from burns suffered in an accident in his home in Hollywood at the age of 52.
HMS Express (1874)
HMS Express was a Forester-class gunboat built by William Doxford & Sons Ltd for the Royal Navy.

The Express was the second of the class launched, on 16 July 1874, and commissioned at HMNB Devonport on 10 August 1875.

In 1877, the Express was detailed to North Africa. Whilst at Gibraltar, it was involved in the capture of a number of Spanish smugglers.

Whilst returning from Africa, the Express suffered a broken main shaft near Cape Verde and was taken under tow by the HMS Banterer.

The vessel remained in service until being sold in August 1889, to G Rodrigues of Liverpool. Whilst under tow from Plymouth to Liverpool, it became separated from its tug and was sunk on 7 October 1889 in a Force 11 gale, running onto rocks near Aberffraw, Wales.

Forester-class gunboat
The Forester-class gunboat was a class of 4-gun composite gunboats built for the Royal Navy between 1874 and 1877.  Although half had been sold by 1890, the rest survived into the 20th century as coal hulks, base vessels and other secondary uses. Foxhound survived as a hulk on the Blackwall Reach of the Thames until 1975, when she was broken up. They were built of composite construction, that is, with iron keel, stem and stern posts, and iron framing, but planked with wood.

Auxiliary ship
An auxiliary ship is a naval ship designed to support combatant ships and other naval operations. Auxiliary ships are not primary combatant vessels, though they may have some limited combat capacity, usually for purposes of self-defense.

Auxiliary ships are extremely important for navies of all sizes because if they were not present the primary fleet vessels would be unsupported. Thus, virtually every navy maintains an extensive fleet of auxiliary ships, however, the composition and size of these auxiliary fleets vary depending on the nature of each navy and its primary mission. Smaller coastal navies tend to have smaller auxiliary vessels focusing primarily on littoral and training support roles, while larger blue-water navies tend to have larger auxiliary fleets comprising longer-range fleet support vessels designed to provide support far beyond territorial waters.
Butajiru
Tonjiru or butajiru (豚汁; "pork soup")  is a Japanese soup made with pork and vegetables, flavoured with miso. It is a more substantial version of miso soup, with a larger quantity and variety of ingredients.

Miso
Miso (みそ or 味噌) is a traditional Japanese seasoning. It is a thick paste produced by fermenting soybeans with salt and kōji (the fungus Aspergillus oryzae), and sometimes rice, barley, seaweed, or other ingredients. It is used for sauces and spreads; pickling vegetables, fish, or meats; and mixing with dashi soup stock to serve as miso soup, a Japanese culinary staple food. Miso is high in protein and rich in minerals, and it played an important nutritional role in feudal Japan. Miso is widely used in both traditional and modern cooking in Japan, and as of 2018 had been gaining worldwide interest.

Typically, miso is salty, but its flavor and aroma depend on the ingredients and fermentation process. Different varieties of miso have been variously described as salty, sweet, earthy, fruity, or savory.

Kireji
Kireji (切れ字; lit. "cutting word") are a special category of words used in certain types of Japanese traditional poetry. It is regarded as a requirement in traditional haiku, as well as in the hokku, or opening verse, of both classical renga and its derivative renku (haikai no renga). There is no exact equivalent of kireji in English, and its function can be difficult to define. It is said to supply structural support to the verse. When placed at the end of a verse, it provides a dignified ending, concluding the verse with a heightened sense of closure. Used in the middle of a verse, it briefly cuts the stream of thought, indicating that the verse consists of two thoughts half independent of each other. In such a position, it indicates a pause, both rhythmically and grammatically, and may lend an emotional flavour to the phrase preceding it.

Renku
Renku (連句, "linked verses"), or haikai no renga (俳諧の連歌, "comic linked verse"), is a Japanese form of popular collaborative linked verse poetry. It is a development of the older Japanese poetic tradition of ushin renga, or orthodox collaborative linked verse. At renku gatherings participating poets take turns providing alternating verses of 17 and 14 morae. Initially haikai no renga distinguished itself through vulgarity and coarseness of wit, before growing into a legitimate artistic tradition, and eventually giving birth to the haiku form of Japanese poetry. The term renku gained currency after 1904, when Kyoshi Takahama started to use it.
