Anattā
In Buddhism, the term anattā (Pali: 𑀅𑀦𑀢𑁆𑀢𑀸) is the doctrine of "non-self" – that no unchanging, permanent self exists, and is the absence of essence in any phenomenon.  While often interpreted as a doctrine denying the existence of a self, anatman is more accurately described as a strategy to attain non-attachment by recognizing everything as impermanent, while staying silent on the ultimate existence of an unchanging essence. In contrast, dominant schools of Hinduism assert the existence of Ātman as pure awareness or witness-consciousness,  "reify[ing] consciousness as an eternal self".

He competed in the 660 yards competition but was eliminated in the semi-finals.

1970 Virginia ballot measures

The only statewide elections on the ballot were four constitutional referendums  to amend the Virginia State Constitution. All referendums were referred to the voters by the Virginia General Assembly.

Legislative referral
A legislative referral (or legislative referendum) is a referendum in which a legislature puts proposed legislation up for popular vote. This may either be voluntarily or, as is the case in many countries for a constitutional amendment, as a mandatory part of the procedure for passing a law. These referrals, depending on the location, can either amend a constitution or enact a change in statute. It is a form of direct democracy. In some places it is known as an authorities referendum, authorities plebiscite, government initiated referendum, or top-down referendum It may originate from the legislative branch, executive branch, or a combination of the two.

An instrument of direct democracy, it is in contrast to citizens (or "bottom-up") initiative that is initiated from the public. With initiated statutes and amendments, voters both initiate and decide on the change of law. In a legislative referral, they only approve or reject laws which their legislature votes to place before them.

Hydraulic warfare
Hydraulic warfare (HW) is the use of surface water from reservoirs, rivers, canals and other waterbodies as a mass destruction/area denial weapon against the operations of an opposing force during a military conflict. This may involve breaching dams and rerouting watercourses to flood and drown the enemy-held regions of the battlefield, and can be used as a measure of area denial to impede the advance of an attacking ground force, or to reduce the logistic resources and tactical options for fortified defenders. The technique has been used throughout history to create "devastating floods, isolate troops, cut off supply lines, hinder river crossings, and disrupt military timetables".

The English term originated in the 1950s, with the US Army Corps of Engineers.

Members of the Timurid dynasty signaled the Timurid Renaissance, and they were strongly influenced by Persian culture and established two significant empires in history, the Timurid Empire (1370–1507) based in Persia and Central Asia, and the Mughal Empire (1526–1857) based in the Indian subcontinent.
