Steve Basil
Stephen John Basil (April 2, 1893 – June 24, 1962) was an American Major League Baseball umpire who worked in the American League from 1936 to 1942. Basil umpired in two World Series (1937 and 1940) and in two All-Star Games (1938 and 1940). In his career, he umpired 1,037 Major League games.

Umpire (baseball)
In baseball, the umpire is the person charged with officiating the game, including beginning and ending the game, enforcing the rules of the game and the grounds, making judgment calls on plays, and handling disciplinary actions. The term is often shortened to the colloquial form ump. They are also sometimes nicknamed blue due to the traditional color of the uniform worn by umpires. Although games were often officiated by a sole umpire in the formative years of the sport, since the turn of the 20th century, officiating has been commonly divided among several umpires, who form the umpiring crew.  The position is analogous to that of a referee in many other sports.
Bland–Altman plot
A Bland–Altman plot (or Bland–Altman difference plot) in analytical chemistry or biomedicine is a method of data plotting used in analyzing the agreement between two different assays. It was popularised in medical statistics by J. Martin Bland and Douglas G. Altman. In other fields, it is also called a Tukey mean-difference plot, named after John Tukey.

John Tukey
John Wilder Tukey (/ˈtuːki/; June 16, 1915 – July 26, 2000) was an American mathematician and statistician, best known for the development of the fast Fourier Transform (FFT) algorithm and the box plot. The Tukey range test, the Tukey lambda distribution, the Tukey test of additivity, and the Teichmüller–Tukey lemma all bear his name. He is also credited with coining the term bit and the first published use of the word software.
Sabah Al Ahmad Sea City
Sabah Al Ahmad Sea City (Arabic: مدينة صباح الأحمد البحرية) is a city and area in Al Khiran (Ahmadi Governorate), Kuwait, built with canals forming 200 kilometres (120 mi) of artificial shoreline. Before construction, the city was expected to house up to 250,000 residents. The city was inaugurated in mid 2016. The concept of the area is unusual because it was built by excavating large channels in the desert rather than on reclaimed land. The city is considered a pioneering project in the region due to its environmentally sustainable construction techniques.

The first phase of the project was opened to the sea in 2004. The multi-billion dollar development has a planned 25-year construction period with ten phases. Sabah Al Ahmad Sea City is the first urban area in Kuwait built entirely by the private sector.

Land reclamation
Land reclamation, often known as reclamation, and also known as land fill (not to be confused with a waste landfill), is the process of creating new land from oceans, seas, riverbeds or lake beds. The land reclaimed is known as reclamation ground, reclaimed land, or land fill. The term "reclamation" is a misnomer, and promotes confusion with land rehabilitation.

Krai
A krai or kray is one of the types of federal subjects of modern Russia, and was a type of geographical administrative division in the Russian Empire and the Russian SFSR.

Etymologically, the word is related to the verb кроить (kroítǐ [krɐˈitʲ]), meaning 'to cut'. Historically, krais were vast territories located along the periphery of the Russian state, since the word krai also means 'border' or 'edge', i.e., 'a place of the cut-off'. In English the term is often translated as 'territory'. As of 2015, the administrative usage of the term is mostly traditional, as some oblasts also fit this description and there is no difference in constitutional legal status in Russia between the krais and the oblasts.

Colloquially "SCA" or "the USC film school," it now has several divisions or programs, which treat artistic or business aspects of the creation of motion pictures and related media.
1968 Australian Drivers' Championship
The 1968 Australian Drivers' Championship was a CAMS-sanctioned national motor racing title open to racing cars complying with the Australian National Formula or the Australian 1½ Litre Formula. The title was contested over a six-race series, with the winner awarded the 1968 CAMS Gold Star.

The championship was won by Kevin Bartlett driving a Brabham BT23D Alfa Romeo. Bartlett won three of the six races to finish ten points ahead of Phil West (Brabham BT23A-Repco). Third was Glyn Scott (Bowin P3-Cosworth). In addition to Bartlett's wins, single-race victories were taken by West, Scott and Leo Geoghegan (Lotus 39-Repco).

Bowin P3
The Bowin P3 is a monocoque racing car that was produced in 1968 by Bowin. The P3 was designed for the Australian National Formula and the Australian 1½ Litre Formula. After the capacity limit for Australian Formula 2 was increased from 1100cc to 1600cc at the beginning of 1969, the P3 found a new home in that class. The car was designed by John Joyce, founder of Bowin and assisted by Ray Parson, better known as a mechanic.

This was the only Bowin car type to come out of the Joyce-Parsons association. The project took just over 12 weeks to complete.

Three P3s were built. The first was for Queensland racing driver Glyn Scott, who fitted the car with a "spare" 1600cc Cosworth FVA engine he bought from Piers Courage after the 1968 Tasman Series. A Formula 2 version was built for Ian Ferguson and a Holden powered hillclimb car was produced for Barry Garner.

Rancho Salsipuedes was a 31,201-acre (126.27 km2) Mexican land grant in present day Santa Cruz County, California.  Two leagues (8,856 acres or 3,584 ha) were granted in 1834 by Governor José Figueroa to Francisco de Haro.  Eight leagues were granted in 1840 by Governor Juan Alvarado to Manuel Jimeno Casarín.  The name means "go out if you can" in Spanish.  Salsipuedes encompasses the mountainous area west of Gilroy, straddling the Santa Clara  County  - Santa Cruz County line (only about 5,400 acres or 21.9 km2 are in Santa Clara County).

SING*ularity
SING*ularity  (also known as OperaWorks) is an independent documentary film produced and directed by Brad Mays, and co-produced by Lorenda Starfelt at LightSong Films in North Hollywood.

Deriving its title from Shakespeare's Twelfth Night - "put thyself into the trick of singularity" - SING*ularity portrays the unique training approach of OperaWorks, an intense training program in Northridge, California for opera singers founded by Ann Baltz in which the entire body is engaged. This rigorous approach to tuning the "total instrument" is rooted in various avant-garde techniques common to theatre training, but unique to the world of classical music.

The film follows a group of singers - both student and professional - through the entire course, where they are instructed in Yoga, movement, visualization, conducting, acting and, of course, given traditional vocal coaching. The singers are also taught to improvise arias in a manner not unlike the scat approach used by jazz vocalists.

Scat singing
Originating in vocal jazz, scat singing or scatting is vocal improvisation with wordless vocables, nonsense syllables or without words at all. In scat singing, the singer improvises melodies and rhythms using the voice solely as an instrument rather than a speaking medium. This is different from vocalese, which uses recognizable lyrics that are sung to pre-existing instrumental solos.

It was screened in competition at the 48th Venice International Film Festival, in which it won the Silver Lion. The film was given a US release in 2008, to critical acclaim.

Silver Lion
The Silver Lion (Italian: Leone d'argento, also known as Silver Lion for Best Direction) is an annual award presented for best directing achievements in a feature film in the official competition section of the Venice Film Festival since 1998.

The prize has been awarded irregularly and has gone through several changes of purpose. Between 1953 and 1994, the award was given infrequently to a number of films as second prize for those nominated for the Golden Lion. At various times, the Silver Lion has also been awarded for debut films, short films, direction, and writing.

Since 1990, the Silver Lion has been presented to the director of a feature film in the official competition; Martin Scorsese was the first official winner of the award for Goodfellas, while Benny Safdie is the most recent winner for The Smashing Machine in 2025. Andrei Konchalovsky is the only person to receive the award twice.

Language construct
In computer programming, a language construct is a syntactically allowable part of a program that may be formed from one or more lexical tokens in accordance with the rules of the programming language, as defined by in the ISO/IEC 2382 standard (ISO/IEC JTC 1).
A term is defined as a "linguistic construct in a conceptual schema language that refers to an entity".

While the terms "language construct" and "control structure" are often used synonymously, there are additional types of logical constructs within a computer program, including variables, expressions, functions, or modules.

Control flow statements (such as conditionals, foreach loops, while loops, etc.) are language constructs, not functions. So while (true) is a language construct, while add(10) is a function call.

Expression (computer science)
In computer science, an expression is a syntactic entity in a programming language that may be evaluated to determine its value of a specific semantic type. It is a combination of one or more constants, variables, functions, and operators that the programming language interprets (according to its particular rules of precedence and of association) and computes to produce ("to return", in a stateful environment) another value.
In simple settings, the resulting value is usually one of various primitive types, such as string, boolean, or numerical (such as integer, floating-point, or complex).

Expressions are often contrasted with statements—syntactic entities that have no value (an instruction).
