Joseph-Armand Landry
Joseph-Armand Landry (14 December 1918 – 23 March 1985) was a Liberal party member of the House of Commons of Canada. He was an accountant, insurance broker and manager by career.

Landry attempted to win the Dorchester federal riding in the 1953 election but was unsuccessful. He won Dorchester in the 1957 election and served one term, the 23rd Canadian Parliament. He was defeated by Noël Drouin of the Progressive Conservative party in 1957. Landry made one further unsuccessful attempt at winning back Dorchester in 1958.

1958 Canadian federal election
The 1958 Canadian federal election was held to elect members  of the House of Commons of Canada of the 24th Parliament of Canada on March 31, 1958, just nine months after the 23rd election. It transformed Prime Minister John Diefenbaker's minority into the largest majority government in Canadian history and the second-largest percentage of the popular vote; only Unionist Prime Minister Robert Borden’s triumph in the 1917 federal election, at 56.93 percent, was higher. Although the Tories would surpass their 1958-seat total in the 1984 election, the 1958 result (achieved in a smaller House) remains unmatched both in terms of percentage of seats (78.5%) and the size of the government majority over all opposition parties (a 151-seat majority). Voter turnout was 79.4%, the highest percentage of eligible electors to cast a ballot in Canadian federal election history.
AVIC Baidi Type-B
The AVIC Baidi Type-B (白帝, lit. "White Emperor") is a fictional 6th generation stealth fighter spaceplane mock-up built by the Aviation Industry Corporation of China (AVIC) and unveiled in November 2024 at the Zhuhai Airshow. At the time, many Western observers, Sinologists and military expert discussed the mock-up as if it was a non-fictional aircraft project. In reality, the Baidi model is a science fiction concept derived from an AVIC-sponsored alien invasion novels, "The Nantianmen Project" (南天门计划) by writer Wu Jun (吴俊), which serve the purpose of generating enthusiasm for military development for Chinese youth. A theme park based on this AVIC fictional universe is scheduled to open in 2027.

Hondlon District
Hondlon District (Mongolian: ᠬᠥᠨᠳᠡᠯᠡᠨ ᠲᠣᠭᠣᠷᠢᠭ; Chinese: 昆都仑区) is a district of Baotou, the largest city of Inner Mongolia, China. It was a major destination of migration from Shaanxi, as opposed to Donghe District which retains a mostly native population.

Baotou
Baotou is the second-largest city by urban population in Inner Mongolia, China. Governed as a prefecture-level city, its built-up (or metro) area within its five urban districts is home to 2,261,089 people while the total population is 2,709,378 as of the 2020 census.

Baotou's southern border is delineated by the Yellow river. The city's namesake, literally translating to "place with deer", is Mongolian, bringing about the nickname of "Lucheng" (Chinese: 鹿城; pinyin: Lùchéng), meaning "City of Deer". Alternatively, Baotou is known as the "City of Steel in the Grasslands" (草原钢城; Cǎoyuán Gāngchéng), since steel was a major industry in the city which is built on the Mongolian grassland and contains a large grassland park. Today, Baotou mines and refines over half of the rare-earth minerals produced in the world. This has led to environmental contamination near the industrial sites.
Measure ULA
Measure ULA (officially Proposition ULA or the Homelessness and Housing Solutions Tax, also known as the "mansion tax"), is a ballot measure approved by voters in the City of Los Angeles, California, in the November 2022 election. The measure imposes a transfer tax on real property sales within Los Angeles city limits exceeding $5 million, with revenue earmarked for affordable housing production and homelessness prevention programs. It was approved with 58% of the vote.

The measure was drafted and promoted by the United to House LA (UHLA) coalition, an alliance of labor unions, affordable housing organizations, tenant rights groups, and community organizations. Since taking effect on April 1, 2023, it has generated revenue for related programs, but has also faced criticism for its effects on the city's real estate market and housing construction.

UNITE HERE
UNITE HERE is a labor union in the United States and Canada with roughly 300,000 active members. The union's members work predominantly in the hotel, food service, laundry, warehouse, and casino gaming industries.

In 2005, UNITE HERE withdrew from the AFL–CIO and joined the Change to Win Federation, along with several other unions, including the Teamsters, Service Employees International Union (SEIU) and the UFCW. In May 2009, union president Bruce Raynor (originally from UNITE) left UNITE HERE, taking with him numerous local unions and between 105,000 and 150,000 members, mostly garment workers and a labor-owned bank, Amalgamated Bank. They formed a new SEIU affiliate called Workers United.

On September 17, 2009, UNITE HERE announced that it would re-affiliate with the AFL–CIO.

Workforce management
Workforce management (WFM) is an institutional process that aims to optimize the productivity, competency, and engagement of an organization's workforce. Generally this process utilizes software to plan business needs more effectively than through a spreadsheet. The process includes all activities needed to maintain a productive workforce, such as human resource management, performance and training management, budgeting, forecasting, and scheduling.

While WFM has traditionally focused on operational efficiency and cost reduction, its focus has expanded to include enhancing the employee experience (EX), particularly for frontline or hourly workers. Modern WFM systems are used as tools to improve employee engagement, provide flexible work arrangements, and reduce attrition.

Training management system
A training management system (TMS), training management software, or training resource management system (TRMS) is a software application for the administration, documentation, tracking, and reporting of instructor-led-training programs. It is primarily used by corporate training administrators to manage and streamline various aspects of training activities, including session registration, course administration, and compliance tracking.

A TMS can function as a standalone system or be integrated with other enterprise solutions such as enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems, Learning Management Systems (LMS), and Learning Record Stores (LRS). The goal of a TMS is to optimise and automate training-related processes, enhancing efficiency and improving overall organisational training effectiveness.
Vicia graminea

It is the source for a lectin that is used to identify the N blood group antigen.

South Region, Brazil
The South Region of Brazil (Região Sul do Brasil [ʁeʒiˈɐ̃w ˈsuw du bɾaˈziw]) is one of the five regions of Brazil. It includes the states of Paraná, Rio Grande do Sul, and Santa Catarina, and covers 576,409.6 square kilometres (222,553.0 sq mi), being the smallest region of the country, occupying only about 6.76% of the territory of Brazil. Its whole area is smaller than that of the state of Minas Gerais, in Southeast Brazil, for example or the whole metropolitan France.

It is a tourist, economic and cultural pole. It borders Uruguay, Argentina, and Paraguay, as well as the Centre-West and Southeast regions, and the Atlantic Ocean. The region is considered the safest in Brazil to visit, having a lower crime rate than other regions in the country.
Sally McClean
Sally Ida McClean FRSS is a Northern Irish statistician, computer scientist, and operations researcher. She is a professor of mathematics in the school of computing at Ulster University, and a former president of the Irish Statistical Association. Topics in her research include workforce modeling, health administration, interactive architecture, and survey methodology.

Workforce modeling
Workforce modeling is the process of aligning the demand for skilled labor with the availability and preferences of workers. It utilizes mathematical models to perform tasks such as sensitivity analysis, scheduling, and workload forecasting.

This approach can be used in industries with complex labor regulations, certified professionals, and fluctuating demand — such as healthcare, public safety, and retail. Workforce modeling tools can include software that helps determine staffing needs based on workload variations across times of day, days of the week, or seasonal cycles.
University Center of Southern Oklahoma
The University Center of Southern Oklahoma (formerly known as the Ardmore Higher Education Center) is a consortium-model higher education delivery system which provides academic degree programs from four participating  institutions of higher education located in southern Oklahoma.  Freshman through graduate courses are offered and students can earn college credits for the purposes of transfer to another college (for completing a degree), or students may complete their degree program on-site.

Student
A student is a person enrolled in a school or other educational institution, or more generally, a person who takes a special interest in a subject.

In the United Kingdom and most commonwealth countries, a "student" attends a secondary school or higher (e.g., college or university); those in primary or elementary schools are "pupils".
History of the ambulance
The history of the ambulance begins in ancient times, with the use of carts to transport patients. Ambulances were first used for emergency transport in 1487 by the Spanish forces during the siege of Málaga by the Catholic monarchs against the Emirate of Granada, and civilian variants were put into operation in the 1830s.  Advances in technology throughout the 19th and 20th centuries led to the modern self-powered ambulance.

Paramedic
A paramedic is a healthcare professional trained in the medical model, whose main role has historically been to respond to emergency calls for medical help outside of a hospital. Paramedics work as part of the emergency medical services (EMS), most often in ambulances. They also have roles in emergency medicine, primary care, transfer medicine and remote/offshore medicine.  The scope of practice of a paramedic varies between countries, but generally includes autonomous decision making around the emergency care of patients.

Not all ambulance personnel are paramedics, although the term is sometimes used informally to refer to any ambulance personnel. In some English-speaking countries, there is an official distinction between paramedics and emergency medical technicians (or emergency care assistants), in which paramedics have additional educational requirements and scope of practice.

He wrote a history of Isfahan, a famous chronology of pre-Islamic and Islamic dynasties known as Taʾrīk̲h̲ sinī mulūk al-arḍ wa ’l-anbiyāʾ (تاریخ سنی ملوک الارض و الانبیا), and some other works on lexicography and poetry.
Campodipietra
Campodipietra is a comune (municipality) in the Province of Campobasso in the Italian region Molise, located about 7 kilometres (4 mi) east of Campobasso.

It was built on a rocky spur around the church of San Martino, which rises in the place of the ancient barons' castle, by a colony of German soldiers   in the 13th century. The original borough was surrounded by walls, where only three doors opened. There is another smaller church, San Bonaventura, connected to a peculiar story: the inhabitants gathered there in 1705 to vote which should be their patron saint between San Bernardino from Siena and San Martino, and the latter was chosen.

Campodipietra borders the following municipalities: Campobasso, Ferrazzano, Gildone, Jelsi, San Giovanni in Galdo, Toro.
