National Geographic Endurance
National Geographic Endurance is an expedition ship with an ice-strengthened hull owned and operated by Lindblad Expeditions. The vessel has an ice-strengthened X-bow hull. She is the lead vessel of the Endurance class. The ship was followed by her sister ship, National Geographic Resolution (2021).

The hull was constructed at the CRIST shipyard in Gdynia, Poland, and finishing work was completed at Ulstein Verft in Ulsteinvik, Norway. Construction of the vessel began on 17 March 2018, she was launched on 24 April 2019, and completed in March 2020.

The ship was named in honor of Antarctic explorer Ernest Shackleton and his vessel, Endurance.

The X-bow design, previously used in offshore industry vessels, is intended to reduce the impact of waves on the hull, which decreases noise and vibration and enhances onboard comfort. Its shape also reduces the risk of wave splashing, minimizing hazards on deck from slippery or icy surfaces.

Ice class
Ice class refers to a notation assigned by a classification society or a national authority to denote the additional level of strengthening as well as other arrangements that enable a ship to navigate through sea ice. Some ice classes also have requirements for the ice-going performance of the vessel.

Greimas is known among other things for the Greimas square (le carré sémiotique). He is, along with Roland Barthes, considered the most prominent of the French semioticians. With his training in structural linguistics, he added to the theory of signification, plastic semiotics, and laid the foundations for the Parisian school of semiotics.

Nazeri Lajim
Nazeri bin Lajim (c. 1958 – 22 July 2022), full name Nazeri bin Lajim Hertslet, was a Singaporean drug trafficker. Prior to his arrest in April 2012, Nazeri went to prison several times for drug consumption and several other drug offences, and was said to be addicted to drugs at age 14. Nazeri and his Malaysian accomplice were both brought to trial and found guilty five years later on 8 August 2017.

While the accomplice was sentenced to life imprisonment and caning due to him being a courier, Nazeri was, on the other hand, sentenced to death after the High Court found that he was not a courier, and after it rejected his defence that most of the drug supply seized were for the purpose of his own consumption. Throughout the next five years, Nazeri lost his appeals against his sentence and failed to obtain a presidential pardon twice. On 22 July 2022, the day after he failed to overturn his sentence for the final time, 64-year-old Nazeri was hanged at Changi Prison.

Styria

Prekmurje

The Slovene Littoral, or simply Littoral (Slovene: Primorska, pronounced [pɾiˈmóːɾska] ⓘ; Italian: Litorale; German: Küstenland), is one of the traditional regions of Slovenia. The littoral in its name – for a coastal-adjacent area – recalls the former Austrian Littoral (Avstrijsko Primorje), the Habsburg possessions on the upper Adriatic coast, of which the Slovene Littoral was part. Today, the Littoral is often associated with the Slovenian ethnic territory that, in the first half of the 20th century, found itself in Italy to the west of the Rapallo Border, which separated a quarter of Slovenes from the rest of the nation, and was strongly influenced by Italian fascism.
Metal Asylum
Metal Asylum is an American television program about heavy metal on Fuse. Hosted by Mistress Juliya, it served as a slightly subtler incarnation of the popular Uranium and even coexisted with it under the same host. Metal Asylum traditionally ran a half-hour, typically on a nightly basis at 11pm ET, and deemphasized band interviews in favor of simply playing music videos, largely of the heavy metal genre. The show's production ended in 2006 due to Chernetsky's departure from Fuse TV.

GZR
GZR was an American heavy metal band founded by and named after Black Sabbath bassist/lyricist Geezer Butler.

Most fans refer to the band as "geezer", although Butler himself refers to the band name as "gee-zed-ar". This incarnation of the band is not to be confused with Butler's previous attempt in 1985 to form a solo band, then known as the Geezer Butler Band – the two outfits are largely unrelated.

The sport is played worldwide, but especially in Spain, France, the American state of Florida, and the Mexican state of Baja California.
