Kansas Senate
The Kansas Senate is the upper house of the Kansas Legislature, the state legislature of the U.S. State of Kansas. It is composed of 40 senators elected from single-member districts, each with a population of about 73,000 inhabitants. Members of the Senate are elected to a four-year term. There is no limit to the number of terms that a senator may serve. The Kansas Senate meets at the Kansas State Capitol in Topeka.

Cabinet of Morocco
The Cabinet of Morocco is the chief executive body of the Kingdom of Morocco.

The Cabinet is composed of some 24 ministers including 5 "Minister Delegates". It is headed by the Prime Minister since August 2011, who is appointed by the King of Morocco from the party that achieved a plurality in the parliamentary elections. The Cabinet's ministers are chosen by the PM, after consultation with other parties forming the Government coalition, then validated and appointed by the King. As of September 10, 2021, the current government is headed by Aziz Akhannouch, who was appointed by King Mohamed VI to form a new government after leading the results of the 2021 general election. On 7 October 2021, the new cabinet of 24 ministers, which included 7 women, was sworn in.

Plurality (voting)
A plurality vote (in North American English) or relative majority (in British English) describes the circumstance when a party, candidate, or proposition polls more votes than any other but does not receive a majority or more than half of all votes cast.

For example, if from 100 votes that were cast,  45 were for candidate A, 30 were for candidate B and 25 were for candidate C, then candidate A received a plurality of votes but not a majority. In some election contests, the winning candidate or proposition may need only a plurality, depending on the rules of the organization holding the vote.

Hampton Old Hall
Hampton Old Hall is a country house in the parish of No Man's Heath and District, Cheshire, England.  It is dated 1591, and was built for the Bromley family.  There have been subsequent additions and alterations.  Figueirdo and Treuherz describe it as "a puzzling and ambitious house, perhaps never completed".  The main block is the earliest section, and consists of a close-studded timber-framed range with three gables.  Adjoining it is a 17th-century timber-framed porch.  Behind the porch is a south wing in brick and stone.  The architectural historian Nikolaus Pevsner comments "there must be quite an interesting story behind all this".  The house has been "restored and furnished ... in a solid and traditional farmhouse manor".  It is designated by English Heritage as a Grade II* listed building.  A timber-framed barn to the north of the hall, dating from the 17th century, is listed at Grade II.

Close studding
Close studding is a form of timber work used in timber-framed buildings in which vertical timbers (studs) are set close together, dividing the wall into narrow panels. Rather than being a structural feature, the primary aim of close studding is to produce an impressive front.

Close studding first appeared in England in the 13th century and was commonly used there from the mid-15th century until the end of the 17th century. It was also common in France from the 15th century.

The Cock Tavern at Cheam
The Cock Tavern at Cheam is a c.1745 landscape painting by the Welsh artist Richard Wilson. It likely depicts the Cock Inn, a tavern located on Cheam Common in Sutton (rather than nearby Cheam) in Surrey, then a number of miles outside London. It was a well-known coaching inn on the road from the capital to Brighton. Two men sit outside at a table drinking ale, while in the background is uncultivated common land with grazing sheep.

It is now in the collection of the Tate Britain in Pimlico, having been acquired in a bequest from Stopford Brooke in 1916. A version is also in the Winnipeg Art Gallery.

Tavern
A tavern is a type of business where people gather to drink alcoholic beverages and be served food such as different types of roast meats and cheese, and (mostly historically) where travelers would receive lodging. An inn is a tavern that has a licence to put up guests as lodgers. The word derives from the Latin taberna whose original meaning was a shed, workshop, stall, or pub.

Over time, the words "tavern" and "inn" became interchangeable and synonymous. In England, inns started to be referred to as public houses or pubs and the term became standard for all drinking houses.

Shapley-Ames Catalog
The Shapley-Ames Catalog of Bright Galaxies is a catalog of galaxies published in 1932 that includes observations of 1249 objects brighter than 13.2 magnitude. It was compiled by Harlow Shapley and Adelaide Ames. They identified 1189 objects based on the New General Catalogue and 48 based on the Index Catalogue. With the help of new photographic recordings, which also contained comparison stars of known brightness, the brightness of many galaxies were measured and recorded only up to a magnitude of 13.2. It was the first compilation of bright galaxies in the northern and southern sky. The catalog contains position, brightness, size, and Hubble classification of the galaxies. For the next 60 years, astronomers referred to this catalog as a primary source for information about redshifts and galaxy types.

Colimaite
Colimaite, the naturally occurring analog of synthetic K3VS4, is a sulfide mineral discovered in southwestern Mexico.  The potassium-vanadium sulfide was collected from the crater of the Colima volcano.  The mineral colimaite is named after the locality of this volcano and has been approved in 2007, along with its mineral name, by the Commission on New Minerals, Nomenclature and Classification (CNMNC).  It has been given the International Mineralogical Association number of IMA 2007–045.

Paper recycling
Paper recycling is the process by which waste paper is turned into new paper products.  After repeated processing the fibres become too short for the production of new paper, which is why virgin fibre (from sustainably farmed trees) is frequently added to the pulp recipe.

Waste paper recycling most often involves mixing used/old paper with water and chemicals to break it down. Three categories of paper can be used as feedstocks for making recycled paper: mill broke, pre-consumer waste, and post-consumer waste. The industrial process of removing printing ink from paper fibres of recycled paper to make deinked pulp is called deinking, an invention of the German jurist Justus Claproth.

Recycling of paper saves waste paper from occupying the homes of people and producing methane as it breaks down. Industrialized papermaking affects the environment where raw materials are acquired and processed with waste-disposal impacts.
