Vladislav Listyev
Vladislav Nikolayevich Listyev (Russian: Владисла́в Никола́евич Ли́стьев; May 10, 1956 – March 1, 1995) was a Soviet, later Russian journalist and head of the ORT TV Channel (now government-owned Channel One).

The Field of Wonders
The Field of Wonders (Russian: По́ле Чуде́с, IPA: [ˈpolʲɪ tɕʉˈdʲes]) is a Soviet, later Russian adaptation of the U.S. game show Wheel of Fortune (loosely based on the original format; the license wasn't bought from the distributor) produced by VID, provided with elements of Russian culture and hosted by Leonid Yakubovich.

In late 2021, Channel One Russia stopped buying The Field of Wonders from VID and originally meant to replace it with a licensed version of Wheel of Fortune under the same name since January 2022. Due to a trademark dispute with VID, the title of the new show was supposed to be Nashe Pole Chudes (Our Field of Wonders). However, VID later agreed to let Channel One keep the original The Field of Wonders name and the full 31-year archive, while Channel One will be producing the show onwards.
Matthew 22
Matthew 22 is the twenty-second chapter in the Gospel of Matthew in the New Testament section of the Christian Bible. Jesus continues his final ministry in Jerusalem before his Passion. Teaching in the Temple, Jesus enters into debate successively with the Pharisees, allied with the Herodians, the Sadducees, and a lawyer, ultimately silencing them all.

Herodians
The Herodians (Greek: Ἡρώδειοι; Latin: Herodiani) were a sect of Hellenistic Jews mentioned in the New Testament on two occasions – first in Galilee and later in Jerusalem – being hostile to Jesus (Mark 3:6, 12:13; Matthew 22:16; cf. also Mark 8:15, Luke 13:31–32). In each of these cases their name is coupled with that of the Pharisees.

According to many interpreters, the courtiers or soldiers of Herod Antipas ("Milites Herodis," Jerome) were intended; others argue that the Herodians were probably a public political party who distinguished themselves from the two great historical parties of post-exilic Judaism (the Pharisees and Sadducees) by the fact that they were and had been sincerely friendly to Herod the Great, the Edomite placed as king over Judea by Rome, and to his dynasty.

Its inhabitants include the Mountain Ok people, a cultural group with numerous sub-groups including the Telefol, the Urapmin, and the Wopkaimin. The Oksapmin also live in this district. Notable ethnographic research by Geoffrey B. Saxe at UC Berkeley has documented the encounter between pre-contact uses of number and its cultural evolution under conditions of monetization and exposure to schooling and the formal economy among the Oksapmin.

Mountain Ok people
Min peoples or Mountain Ok are a cultural group in the West Sepik Province of Papua New Guinea and Highlands Papua in Indonesia.

The Min peoples, though multiple distinct peoples, shared a ritual system.

In this ranking, the Urapmin were either at the top or at least very close to the Telefol.

Nāzi'āt and Nāshiṭāt
Nāzi'āt (Arabic: نازعات, pluckers) and Nāshiṭāt (Arabic: ناشطات, drawers) are two classes of death angels subordinate to Azra'il in Islam, responsible for taking the souls of the dead. While Nāzi'āt are commissioned to take the lives of unbelievers forcefully, the Nāshiṭāt take believers gently.

Nāziʿāt angels are responsible for taking out the souls of disbelievers painfully.

Meanwhile, Nāshiṭāt angels are responsible for taking out the souls of believers peacefully. Ibn Kathir interpreted Al-Anfal 8:50 as the angels who takes the soul of unbelievers brought Fires of Hell with them for the additional torture the soul they have taken. Meanwhile, Al-Tabari also interpreted similarly, while also giving addendum interpretations from Muhammad bin Al-Muthanna, Ibn Waki', Mujahid ibn Jabr, and Ibn Abbas among others; that these angels will also smashing the face and back of the unbeliever's soul while doing their task.

Al-Anfal
Al-Anfal (Arabic: ٱلأنفال, al-ʾanfāl; meaning The Spoils of War, Earnings, Savings, Profits) is the eighth chapter (sūrah) of the Quran, with 75 verses (āyāt). Regarding the timing and contextual background of the revelation (asbāb al-nuzūl), it is a Medinan surah, completed after the Battle of Badr. It forms a pair with the next surah, At-Tawba.

According to the Muslim philosopher Abul A'la Maududi, the chapter was probably revealed in 2 AH (624 CE) after the Battle of Badr, the first defensive clash between the Meccans and the Muslim people of Medina after they fled from persecution in Mecca. As it contains an extensive point-by-point survey of the battle, it gives the idea that most presumably it was revealed at very much the same time. Yet, it is additionally conceivable that a portion of the verses concerning the issues emerging because of this battle may have been revealed later and placed at the best possible spots to make it consistent entirely.
Gulf of Panama mangroves
The Gulf of Panama mangroves (NT1414) is an ecoregion along the Pacific coast of Panama and Colombia. The mangroves experience seasonal flooding with high levels of sediment, and occasional extreme storms or very low rainfall due to El Niño effects. They are important as a breeding or nursery area for marine species.
Areas of the mangroves have been recognized as Important Bird Areas and Ramsar wetlands. 
The ecoregion has been severely degraded by clearance of mangroves for agriculture, pasturage and shrimp farming, by urban pressure around Panama City, and by pollution related to the Panama Canal.

Ramsar site
A Ramsar site is a wetland site designated to be of international importance under the Ramsar Convention, also known as "The Convention on Wetlands",  an international environmental treaty signed on 2 February 1971 in Ramsar, Iran, under the auspices of UNESCO.
