Qishlah
The Qishlah palace (Arabic: قصر القشلة)  is a palace in the center of Ha'il, Saudi Arabia. Built in the 1940s as an artillery and weapons depot during the principality of prince Abdulaziz bin Musaad of Ha'il province, it is a two-floor mud palace, 142.8x141.2 meters, its walls are 8.5m high, and it has eight watch-towers along with the walls with two main gates, east and west.

Qishlah comes from the Turkish word for fort or barracks (Kışla). The purpose of building it was to make it the central location for the army troops arriving there. Then it was a prison until the end of the principality of bin Musa'ad, when it was re-purposed as a historical building by the government.

It was transformed into a heritage landmark in 1995.

Peregrine Lascelles and Lt. Col Robert Monckton of the 47th Regiment of Foot. Cox served as commander at Fort Vieux Logis, after the Siege of Grand Pre and later at Fort Edward, participating in the Bay of Fundy Campaign (1755).  He became a captain on 2 July 1753 and was the longest serving Captain at Fort Edward.   He also was at the Battle of Fort Beausejour and the Siege of Louisbourg (1758).

In 1789, Cox was appointed lieutenant-governor of the Gaspé District by Governor Guy Carleton, and had his home in New Carlisle.

Jacopo Contarini
Jacopo Contarini (Giacomo) (1193 – 6 April 1280) was the 47th Doge of Venice, from 6 September 1275 until his abdication on 6 March 1280.

In 1265, along with Jacopo Dolfin, Contarini concluded a peace treaty with the Emperor on 18 June 1265, that would remain unratified by Venice.

Although he came from one of the most illustrious Venetian families, Contarini, Jacopo was not considered an influential person and he was probably chosen as a compromise between the two major factions. Being already in his eighties and unable to face the position's challenges—a revolt in Istria and Crete and a war with Ancona—he abdicated as Doge after five years and retired to a monastery, where he died the same year. He was probably buried in the church of Frari. He was married to one Jacobina.

Istria

Located at the top of the Adriatic between the Gulf of Trieste and the Kvarner Gulf, the peninsula is shared by three countries: Croatia, Slovenia, and Italy, 90% of its area being part of Croatia. Most of Croatian Istria is part of Istria County.
Binzasara
Binzasara (編木 or 板ざさら) is a traditional Japanese percussion instrument used in folk songs, and rural dances. It was originally used as a cleaning tool. The instrument is made up of several wooden plates strung together with a cotton cord, with handles at both ends. Typically, a binzasara will have 108 wooden slats which is a significant number in Buddhism. The stack of wooden plates is played by making them move like a wave.

Music of Japan
In Japan, music includes a wide array of distinct genres, both traditional and modern. The word for "music" in Japanese is 音楽 (ongaku), combining the kanji 音 on (sound) with the kanji 楽 gaku (music, comfort). Japan is the world's largest market for music on physical media and the second-largest overall music market, with a retail value of US$2.7 billion in 2017.

Since its launch, it has played a wider mixture of music from the 1980s to present, and covers Malaysian and international pop genres. It also operates part-time opt-outs from Kuala Lumpur for audiences in Sabah and Sarawak, which downsized its respective local operations since 2023.

In 2015, as according to Nielsen RAM Survey Wave #1, Era FM maintained its position as Malaysia's leading Malay-language station with over 4.8 million listeners.
Orchidales
Orchidales is an order of flowering plants. In taxonomical systems, this is a relatively recent name as early systems used descriptive botanical names for the order containing the orchids. The Bentham & Hooker and the Engler systems had the orchids in order Microspermae while the Wettstein system treats them as order Gynandrae (a descriptive name referring to the stamens). In taxonomical systems these two descriptive names have now mostly dropped out of use.

Circumscription of the order will vary with the taxonomic system being used. Although mostly the order will consist of the orchids only (usually in one family only, but sometimes divided into more families, as in the Dahlgren system, see below), sometimes other families are added:

Engler system
One of the prime systems of plant taxonomy, the Engler system was devised by Adolf Engler (1844–1930), and is featured in two major taxonomic texts he authored or co-authored. His influence is reflected in the use of the terms "Engler School" and "Engler Era". Engler's starting point was that of Eichler who had been the first to use phylogenetic principles, although Engler himself did not think that he was.
Buno Bedele Zone
Buno Bedele (also Buno Bedelle; Oromo: Buunoo Beddellee) is one of the zones of the Oromia Region in Ethiopia. Located in western Oromia, Buno Bedele is bordered on the west by the Ilu Aba Bora Zone, on the north by the East Wollega Zone  and West Wollega Zone and on the east and south by the Jimma Zone. Its administrative center is Bedele.

The Buno Bedele was created by 9 districts and 1 town in March 2016. The Zone covers 5,856.5030 square kilometres of which 1,126.64 square kilometres are covered by forests.

Districts of Ethiopia
Districts of Ethiopia, also called woredas (Amharic: ወረዳ; Oromo: woreda), are the third level of the administrative divisions of Ethiopia – after zones and the regional states.

These districts are further subdivided into a number of wards called kebele neighbourhood associations, which are the smallest unit of local government in Ethiopia.
Epiphyas dotatana
Epiphyas dotatana is a species of moth of the family Tortricidae. It is found in Australia, where it has been recorded from Victoria, the Australian Capital Territory and Tasmania. The habitat consists of montane forests and wet eucalypt forests.

The wingspan is about 26 mm.

The larvae have been recorded feeding on Daviesia species and possibly Acacia melanoxylon.

Acacia melanoxylon
Acacia melanoxylon, commonly known as the Australian blackwood, is an Acacia species native to south-eastern Australia. The species is also known as blackwood, hickory, mudgerabah, Tasmanian blackwood, or blackwood acacia. The tree belongs to the Plurinerves section of Acacia and is one of the most wide-ranging tree species in eastern Australia and is quite variable mostly in the size and shape of the phyllodes.

Steve Olson is a 1970s-1980s era American professional skateboarder and contemporary artist originally from Orange County, California.

In 1979, he was sponsored by Santa Cruz Skateboards, turning professional alongside of teammates Duane Peters and Steve Alba. Later the same year Olson would receive the Skateboarder Of The Year award.

Among his contributions to the culture, Olson is credited with first introducing the skateboarding world to Punk rock music.

In 2014, Olson was inducted into the Skateboarding Hall of Fame. Filmmaker and former professional skateboarder Stacy Peralta said of Olson's induction, “He was the first Vert skateboarding champion. He would show up to contests with the least amount of practice. But then he’d get this intense focus and would go out there and be flawless. And he never did the same thing twice.”
Éire Óg-Corrachoill CLG
Éire Óg-Corrachoill (Irish pronunciation: [ˈeːɾʲə ˈoːɡ ˈkɔɾˠəxəl̠ʲ]; "Young Ireland-Prosperous") is a hurling club based in the parish of Caragh in County Kildare. The parish of Caragh includes the village of Caragh itself, surrounding townlands and Prosperous village which is situated about 3 km north-west from the village. The club is the result of an amalgamation which occurred in 1994 between Éire Óg of Caragh and Corra Choill of Prosperous. The first record of any kind of success in the Caragh parish area involves the Clongorey Campaigners. RIC records from 1890 show that Clongorey Campaigners had 38 members with Dan Kelly, John Murphy, Pat Fullam and James Kelly listed as officers. Clongorey reached the Senior Hurling Championship final in 1891 and but were defeated by Maynooth. Their home ground is in donore just opposite the motor racing circuit Mondello Park.

Kildare Senior Camogie Championship
Camogie was played in Kildare shortly after the sport was first organized in 1904. However, due to sparse records it is not certain when the first senior camogie championship was held. The earliest record of Camogie appears in an advertisement by Athy Ladies Hurling Club advertised a members reunion in July 1909. Kildare sent delegates to the Camogie congress of 1932, and a county board was formed in 1934 with Fr Byrne CC of Caragh as President, Mrs B McCarthy as vice-president, William Fisher of Newbridge as secretary, and Polly Smyth of Newbridge as treasurer. Camogie was reorganized at a county convention in 1954, and has been played in Kildare continuously since.
NBPF10
Neuroblastoma breakpoint family member 10 is a protein that in Homo sapiens is encoded by the NBPF10 gene.

The full gene is 75,313 bp, with the major isoform of mRNA being 10,697 bp long. The gene is located at 1q21.1. NBPF contains what is known as the DUF1220 repeats. The  highly conserved, repeated region is believed to be originated from MGC8902. The NBPF family has been linked to primate evolution. It is assumed to be related to the 1q21.1 deletion syndrome and 1q21.1 duplication syndrome.

1q21.1 duplication syndrome
1q21.1 duplication syndrome, also known as 1q21.1 microduplication, is an uncommon copy number variant associated with several congenital abnormalities, including developmental delay, dysmorphic traits, autism spectrum disorder, and congenital cardiac defects. Common facial features include frontal bossing, hypertelorism, and macrocephaly. Around 18 and 29% of patients with 1q21.1 microduplications have congenital cardiac abnormalities. 1q21.1 duplication syndrome is caused by microduplications of the BP3-BP4 region. 18-50% are de novo deletions and 50-82% inherited from parents. The 1q21.1 area, one of the largest regions in the human genome, is highly susceptible to copy number variation due to its frequent low-copy duplications. Whole exome sequencing and quantitative polymerase chain reaction can provide a precise molecular diagnosis for children with 1q21.1 microduplication syndrome.
Fukuyama, Hiroshima
Fukuyama (福山市, Fukuyama-shi) is a city in Hiroshima Prefecture, Japan. As of 31 March 2023, the city had an estimated population of 459,160 in 214259 households and a population density of 890 persons per km2. The total area of the city is 518.14 square kilometres (200.05 sq mi). After Hiroshima, it is the largest city in Hiroshima Prefecture. The city's symbol is the rose and it holds an annual Rose Festival in the month of May. The official mascot of Fukuyama is an anthropomorphic rose child by the name of Rola.

Puroresu
Puroresu is a Japanese term referring to professional wrestling in Japan and abroad. It is a loanword that stems from the Japanese pronunciation of "professional wrestling", which is abbreviated in Japanese to puro and resu.

Puroresu grew out of American professional wrestling but has become a separate entity based on Japanese culture that is distinct in its psychology, presentation, and function. It is treated much more like a legitimate competition, with fewer theatrics, and storylines are often focused on a wrestler's "fighting spirit" and perseverance. Professional wrestling in Japan led to the development of shoot wrestling and has been closely related to mixed martial arts, starting with Shooto and Pancrase, organizations which predate the UFC, and has influenced subsequent promotions such as Fighting Network Rings and Pride Fighting Championships. There is more overlap between professional wrestling and mixed martial arts in Japan than any other country.
The Wieners Circle
The Wieners Circle is a hot dog stand on Clark Street in the Lincoln Park neighborhood of Chicago, Illinois, United States.
