Meez
Meez was a free-to-play virtual world that launched on March 28, 2006. Meez was developed by Donnerwood Media (a company based in San Francisco, California, that were also the license-holders for Tringo) as an "online entertainment" social networking service. It was founded by Sean Ryan, the former vice president of the music service RealNetworks. Meez's CEO, John Cahill, was a former Yahoo executive.

Meez's main draw was the Meez Nation, where users could visit several regions, known as "Hoods", to chat with other users in chat rooms. Meez had over three million unique users, who would spend 60 hours a month on the site. There were 13 million registered Meez users by the time the site had become discontinued, 90% of whom were in the United States. Meez advertisers included Nike, Rocawear, Domo, Coast, the NBA and the NHL. MIS Quarterly estimated that its users were primarily children and teenagers.

In 2007, Meez was named one of the Internet's five worst websites by TIME.

Refusal to serve in a public office
Refusal to serve in a public office was an offence under the common law of England and Wales and Ireland. The offence is currently regarded as obsolete, and it extended only to the appointment of high sheriffs.

As a common law offence, it was tried on indictment and could be punished by an unlimited fine and/or period of imprisonment. In 1897, Captain Conway Higginson was prosecuted by writ of criminal information at the Queen's Bench in Dublin for refusing to serve as high sheriff of the county of the town of Carrickfergus. Peter O'Brien, the Lord Chief Justice of Ireland, regarded it as a test case; he directed the jury to find Higginson guilty and fined him £5.

Members of the House of Commons of the United Kingdom or candidates for election were exempt from the requirement to accept public office where it would cause them to be disqualified from being MPs, although this exemption did not extend to requirements to serve in the armed forces.

Peter O'Brien, 1st Baron O'Brien
Peter O'Brien, 1st Baron O'Brien, PC, QC (29 June 1842 – 7 September 1914), known as Sir Peter O'Brien, Bt, between 1891 and 1900, was an Irish lawyer and judge. He served as Lord Chief Justice of Ireland between 1889 and 1913. In his lifetime he was universally known as Peter the Packer, due to the skill he displayed as Attorney-General in securing verdicts by packed juries.

RBM12
RNA-binding protein 12 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the RBM12 gene.

This gene encodes a protein that contains several RNA-binding motifs, potential transmembrane domains, and proline-rich regions. This gene and the gene for copine I overlap at map location 20q11.21. Alternative splicing in the 5' UTR results in two transcript variants. Both variants encode the same protein.

Proline
Proline (symbol Pro or P) is an organic acid classed as a proteinogenic amino acid (used in the biosynthesis of proteins), although it does not contain the amino group -NH2 but is rather a secondary amine. The secondary amine nitrogen is in the protonated form (NH2+) under biological conditions, while the carboxyl group is in the deprotonated −COO− form. The "side chain" from the α carbon connects to the nitrogen forming a pyrrolidine loop, classifying it as a aliphatic amino acid. It is non-essential in humans, meaning the body can synthesize it from the non-essential amino acid L-glutamate. It is encoded by all the codons starting with CC (CCU, CCC, CCA, and CCG).

Proline is the only proteinogenic amino acid which is a secondary amine, as the nitrogen atom is attached both to the α-carbon and to a chain of three carbons that together form a five-membered ring.
Helminthochiton
Helminthochiton is an extinct genus of polyplacophoran mollusc. Helminthochiton became extinct during the Permian period.

Helminthochiton thraivensis has been reassigned to the genus Phthipodochiton in 2012.

It lies 21 miles (34 km) south of Ayr, and 29 miles (47 km) north of Stranraer, the main ferry port from Scotland to Northern Ireland.

Deriving its name from the river which runs through the landscape the etymology of Girvan has possible Brythonic origins, related to the Welsh: Gearafon or Gwyrddafon, "river flowing through the green flourishing place, from afon or avon, a river, and Gwyrdd, green, flourishing".

2020 Hyderabad floods
The 2020 Hyderabad floods were a series of floods associated with Deep Depression BOB 02 that caused extensive damage and loss of life as a result of flash flooding in Hyderabad, India in October 2020. The fourth tropical cyclone and third deep depression of the 2020 North Indian Ocean cyclone season, BOB 02 formed on 11 October over the west-central Bay of Bengal and slowly drifted west-northwest, towards the east coast of India over the following days. The depression made landfall in Andhra Pradesh early on 13 October, and dissipated on the next day.

Despite remained weak while striking south-central India, the system brought torrential rains and triggered flooding in the region. Hyderabad, the capital city of Telangana, experienced record-breaking rainfall and led to flash floods in the city. Over 100 people were killed by the floods, including 72 in Telangana. The state reported a loss of ₹9,000 crore (US$1.23 billion).

Flash flood
A flash flood is a rapid flooding of low-lying areas: washes, rivers, dry lakes and depressions. It may be caused by heavy rain associated with a severe thunderstorm, hurricane, or tropical storm, or by meltwater from ice and snow. Flash floods may also occur after the collapse of a natural ice or debris dam, or a human structure such as a man-made dam, as occurred before the Johnstown Flood of 1889. Flash floods are distinguished from regular floods by having a timescale of fewer than six hours between rainfall and the onset of flooding.

Flash floods are a significant hazard, causing more fatalities in the U.S. in an average year than lightning, tornadoes, or hurricanes. They can also deposit large quantities of sediments on floodplains and destroy vegetation cover not adapted to frequent flood conditions.

Shweshwe
Shweshwe (/ˈʃwɛʃwɛ/) (also known as Seshoeshoe) is a printed dyed cotton fabric widely used for traditional Southern African Basotho clothing. Originally dyed indigo, the fabric is manufactured in a variety of colours and printing designs characterised by intricate geometric patterns. Due to its popularity, shweshwe has been described as the denim, or tartan, of South Africa.

Denim
Denim is a sturdy cotton warp-faced textile in which the weft passes under two or more warp threads. This twill weave produces a diagonal ribbing that distinguishes it from cotton duck.  Denim, as it is recognised today, was first produced in Nîmes, France.

Denim is available in a range of colors, but the most common denim is indigo denim in which the warp thread is dyed while the weft thread is left white. As a result of the warp-faced twill weaving, one side of the textile is dominated by the blue warp threads, and the other side is dominated by the white weft threads. Jeans fabricated from this cloth are thus predominantly white on the inside. Denim is used to create a wide variety of garments, accessories, and furniture.
1886 County Carlow by-election
The 1886 County Carlow by-election was a parliamentary by-election held for the United Kingdom House of Commons constituency of County Carlow on 29 January 1886.
