Bight (knot)
In knot tying, a bight is a curved section or slack part between the two ends of a rope, string, or yarn.  A knot that can be tied using only the bight of a rope, without access to the ends, is described as in the bight.  The term "bight" is also used in a more specific way when describing Turk's head knots, indicating how many repetitions of braiding are made in the circuit of a given knot.

Clove hitch
The clove hitch is an ancient type of knot, made of two successive single hitches: 283  tied around an object. It is most effectively used to secure a middle section of rope to an object it crosses over,: 213  such as a line on a fencepost. It can also be used as an ordinary hitch, or as a binding knot, but it is not particularly secure in either application.: 18, 224  It is considered one of the most important knots, alongside the bowline and the sheet bend.

Although the name clove hitch is given by Falconer in his Dictionary of 1769, the knot is much older, having been tied in ratlines at least as early as the first quarter of the sixteenth century. This is shown in early sculpture and paintings. A round turn is taken with the ratline and then a hitch is added below. The forward end is always the first to be made fast.

Kabekona Lake
Kabekona Lake is a clear lake in northern Minnesota, United States, located 1,000 miles south of Laporte in Hubbard County.  Kabekona has a surface area of 2,433 acres (10 km2) and a maximum depth of 133 feet (41 m) — with an average depth of 53 feet (16 m).  Kabekona (Gabekana in the Ojibwe language) means "End of the Trail" to dissuade others from venturing to the very clear lake.  Kabekona is the 2nd clearest lake in Minnesota.

This spring-fed lake is known for its loon birdlife.  At one point it was thought to be the source of the Mississippi River.  Among the most popular fishes in this lake are yellow perch, bass, northern pike, and walleye.
Kabekona Lake was formerly known as "Friendship Springs". One fishing spot on the lake is known as “Keay Point”, named after a nearby family.

Yellow perch
The yellow perch (Perca flavescens), commonly referred to as perch, striped perch, American perch or preacher is a freshwater perciform fish native to much of North America. The yellow perch was described in 1814 by Samuel Latham Mitchill from New York. It is closely related, and morphologically similar to the European perch (Perca fluviatilis); and is sometimes considered a subspecies of its European counterpart.

Latitudinal variability in age, growth rates, and size have been observed among populations of yellow perch, likely resulting from differences in day length and annual water temperatures. In many populations, yellow perch often live 9 to 10 years, with adults generally ranging 4–10 in (10–25 cm) in length.

The world record for a yellow by weight is 4 lb 3 oz (1.9 kg), and was caught in May 1865 in Bordentown, New Jersey, by Dr. C. Abbot. It is the longest-standing record for a freshwater fish in North America.

Red Line (Namibia)
The Red Line, also referred to as the veterinary cordon fence, is a pest-exclusion fence separating northern Namibia from the central and southern regions. It encases several northern regions: Oshana Region, Kavango East Region, Omusati Region, Zambezi Region, Omaheke Region, Kunene Region, and parts of the Khomas and Oshikoto Regions. Most of these farms are fenced in and are accessible by constructed farm roads. South of the fence today are commercial farms where the farmers, many of whom are white, own the land. North of the line, on the other hand, all farm land is communal and operated mostly by black farmers. Livestock is not constrained by fences and often ventures onto roads. The red line is a highly guarded line which has roadblocks to check every vehicle which passes. The red line is the reason for Namibia's unique status to export meat across the European Union.

Scottish National Liberation Army
The Scottish National Liberation Army (SNLA), often nicknamed the Tartan Terrorists, is a Scottish nationalist paramilitary group which aims to bring about Scottish independence from the United Kingdom. The group was founded in 1980 by Adam Busby, a former soldier from Paisley, after the 1979 Scottish devolution referendum, which the organisation claims was fixed. The group's activities primarily involved sending letter bombs to UK government officials, carrying out arson attacks, and making numerous hoax threats of violence, before declaring a ceasefire in 2012, to allow debates leading up to the 2014 Scottish independence referendum to take place.

1979 Scottish devolution referendum
A post-legislative referendum was held in Scotland in 1979 to decide whether there was a sufficient support for a Scottish Assembly proposed in the Scotland Act 1978 among the Scottish electorate. This was an act to create a devolved deliberative assembly for Scotland. A majority (51.6%) of voters supported the proposal, but an amendment to the Act stipulated that it would be repealed if less than 40% of the total electorate voted in favour. As there was a turnout of 64% the "Yes" vote represented only 32.9% of the registered electorate, and the act was subsequently repealed.

A second referendum to create a devolved legislature in Scotland was held in 1997 under a newly elected Labour government, which led to the enactment of the Scotland Act 1998 and the creation of a devolved Scottish Parliament in 1999.
