Hornworts are unique in having a gene called LCIB, which is not found in any other known land plants but occurs in some species of algae. It allows them to concentrate carbon dioxide inside their chloroplasts, making the production of sugar more efficient. Hornworts were traditionally considered a class within the division Bryophyta (bryophytes). However, it now appears that this former division is paraphyletic, so the hornworts are now given their own division, Anthocerotophyta (sometimes misspelled Anthocerophyta). The division Bryophyta is now restricted to include only mosses. Traditionally, there is a single class of hornworts, called Anthocerotopsida, or older Anthocerotae. More recently, a second class Leiosporocertotopsida has been segregated for the singularly unusual species "Leiosporoceros dussii". All other hornworts remain in the class Anthocerotopsida. These two classes are divided further into five orders, each containing a single family. Among land plants, hornworts are one of the earliest-diverging lineages of the early land plant ancestors ; cladistic analysis implies that the group originated prior to the Devonian, around the same time as the mosses and liverworts. There are about 200 species known, but new species are still being discovered. The number and names of genera are a current matter of investigation, and several competing classification schemes have been published since 1988. Structural features that have been used in the classification of hornworts include: the anatomy of chloroplasts and their numbers within cells, the presence of a pyrenoid, the numbers of antheridia within androecia, and the arrangement of jacket cells of the antheridia. Recent studies of molecular, ultrastructural, and morphological data have yielded a new classification of hornworts.

The IBP National Committee on Bar Discipline is the special group monitoring and upholding ethical practices in the profession. The IBP National Committee on Legal Aid is the ad hoc committee for establishing and maintaining suitable legal aid offices in all IBP Chapters nationwide. On December 20, 2007, the Integrated Bar of the Philippines (thru IBP president Feliciano Bautista and all the 9 members of the IBP Board of Governors - IBP governors Abelardo Estrada, Ernesto Gonzales Jr, Marcial Magsino, Bonifacio Barandon Jr, Evergisto Escalon, Raymond Jorge Mercado, Ramon Edison Batacan and Carlos Valdez Jr.) affirmed their published statement that it "is prepared to stage street protests to express the "growing anger" of lawyers over controversies pestering the Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo's administration; we are ready. If we have to go to the streets we'll do it. We can't remain silent and neutral." Integrated Bar of the Philippines (48,000 members in 83 chapters nationwide) president Feliciano Bautista informed Newsbreak newspaper that the bribery expose of Governor Eddie Panlilio triggered hitting the “culture of corruption” in the Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo administration. The statement of concern advertisement was published in the Philippine Daily Inquirer on December 17 and in Philippine Star on December 20. IBP called for 3 courses of action: a) "prosecution of cases against corrupt government officials, b) continued Senate investigation on alleged corruption in government contracts, and c) filing of an impeachment case against President Arroyo." IBP also held the government responsible for widespread smuggling activities, extrajudicial killings, forced disappearances, and ghost projects. It called on the House of Representatives to endorse the impeachment complaint against President Arroyo and admonished the Senate to continue probes on government anomalies. In March 2006, the IBP, for the first time, organized its lawyers in a street protest against President Arroyo’s Proclamation 1017.

It's unbelievable". Northern Ireland's deputy First Minister Martin McGuinness also paid tribute. After the funerals, two council meetings were thought to be planning to talk about road safety and counselling. There was a call for the establishment of a co-ordinated response strategy for Inishowen. The funerals took place over a three-day period, attended by hundreds of people and each receiving extensive media coverage. On 14 July, the funerals of Hugh Friel, Mark McLaughlin and Patrick "PJ" McLaughlin took place. On 15 July, the funerals of Paul Doherty, Eamonn McDaid, Ciaran Sweeney and Damien McLaughlin took place. Paul Doherty was buried on his twentieth birthday. On 16 July, the final funeral, that of James McEleney, took place. By the time of the final funeral the survivor was not well enough to be interviewed; a long spell in hospital was expected with the possibility of surgery. It was revealed on 27 July that he had been informed of the deaths of his friends; he had woken from a coma but was sent to a hospital in Dublin for further treatment. On 10 November 2011, the driver was charged with dangerous driving causing eight deaths, with the defence saying his injuries meant he did not pose a "flight" risk. On 9 February 2012, the Book of Evidence was served on the driver Shaun Kelly at Buncrana District Court, and the case was adjourned until the following month. Kelly was convicted at trial. His sentence later increased on appeal as 'unduly lenient' for the ‘worst case of dangerous driving in history of the State’. In a 2016 inquest, a solicitor for Shaun Kelly (then serving a sentence after pleading guilty to causing death by dangerous driving) made claims of a "coverup", stating that his client "accepted causing the deaths of the eight men, but denied causing the accident". He alleged that the driver of another car was "inches on the wrong side of the road" when the first collision occurred, a claim refuted by other statements at the inquest (including Garda evidence that the other car was 90cm on the correct side of the road at time of impact). Ultimately the inquest upheld the verdict, with the inquest jury stating that the victims were "unlawfully killed consistent with dangerous driving". Kelly's original 4-year sentence was doubled to 8-years by the court of appeal.

Another dentist, Dr. Foley, logically concludes that the missing teeth and money are due to a black-market tooth racket that he has seen before in Montreal. The other dentists scoff at him and assume that Montreal is a fictional place. The boys are now rather wealthy from the tooth racket, but Cartman persuades them to cut their ties to Loogie and make more profits. Loogie learns about this and tries to have Kenny drowned by tying his feet to concrete weights and throwing him into the Platte River, which only covers Kenny up to his ankles. The local TV news reports a story about a child, Billy, who needs $600 for a bone marrow transplant, and has recently lost a tooth, but his parents plan to leave him the money. The story is a trap set by Dr. Foley to prove the ADA wrong. (Although the report was a trap, Billy did have the illness and did need the money.) Loogie and his gang arrive to confront the boys for severing their ties, but as soon as Cartman finally catches the money, the trap is activated and all of the boys (including Loogie) are caught. Kyle, meanwhile, disappears while questioning his own existence, but soon reappears wielding control over all reality, even becoming the half-chicken half-squirrel beast, scaring both Loogie's gang and the ADA away. Only Stan, Cartman, and Loogie remain when Kyle eventually reappears back to normal. Loogie, despite being upset that he would fall for the ADA's trap, decides that the fall of his empire is a good thing, ending the tooth racket and hoping to try out for flag football. Meanwhile, Billy is saved, as he discovers the "Tooth Fairy"'s money under his bed. As the credits roll, Kenny who is still attached to his concrete shoes, slowly hops through the shallow river and then falls into a deep spot. As he drowns, Timmy zooms across the bridge above and shouts his own name. As explained in the FAQ section on the official website, "When the year 2000 was coming up, everyone and their brother had '2000' in the titles of their products and TV shows. America was obsessed with 2000, so Trey Parker put '2000' in the titles to make fun of the ubiquity of the phrase."

To "counter the obvious violation of the spirit of the riba ban", some banks have required the complication (and expense) of two additional commodity brokers in addition to the customer and financier. On the other hand, Faleel Jamaldeen states that "commodity "murabaha"" contracts are used to fund short-term liquidity requirements for Islamic interbank transactions, although they may not use gold, silver, barley, salt, wheat or dates for commodities as this is forbidden under "Riba al-Fadl". Among the Islamic banks using "Tawarruq" (as of 2012) according to Jamaldeen, include the United Arab Bank, QNB Al Islamic, Standard Chartered of United Arab Emirates, and Bank Muaamalat of Malaysia. In the United States the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency—which regulates nationally licensed banks—has allowed "murabaha":Interpretive Letter #867. November 1999 ... In the current financial marketplace lending takes many forms . ... murabaha financing proposals are functionally equivalent to or a logical outgrowth of secured real estate lending and inventory and equipment financing, activities that are part of the business of banking. Orthodox Islamic Scholars such as Taqi Usmani emphasize that murâbaḥah should only be used as a structure of last resort where profit and loss sharing instruments are unavailable. Usmani himself describes "murâbaḥah" as a "borderline transaction" with "very fine lines of distinction" compared to an interest bearing loan, as "susceptible to misuse", and "not an ideal way of financing". He laments that Many institutions financing by way of "murabahah" determine their profit or mark-up on the basis of the current interest rate, mostly using LIBOR (Inter-bank offered rate in London) as the criterion. Another pioneer, Mohammad Najatuallah Siddiqui, has lamented that "as a result of diverting most of its funds towards murabaha, Islamic financial institutions may be failing in their expected role of mobilizing resources for development of the countries and communities they are serving," and even bringing about "a crisis of identity of the Islamic financial movement." Some Muslims (Rakaan Kayali among others) complain that "murabaha" does not eliminate interest as it guarantees for itself the amount of profit it collects, and so amounts to a "Ḥiyal" or legal "trick" to defeat the intent of shariah.

Basted, Kent Basted is a hamlet in the Tonbridge and Malling district, in the county of Kent, England.

At first, Farrand & Votey built only reed organs, but in 1888 it started making pipe organs and hired more men. The factory had the capacity to produce 600 pianos, organs, and mechanical piano players per month or 7,200 units per year. The firm employed over 400 workers by 1905. These instruments were sold throughout the United States and worldwide. The Farrand & Votey Organ Company bought the business and patents of the Roosevelt Organ Works in 1889. It began making organs for the Aeolian Company around 1890. The first Aeolian Organ was installed in New York City's Aeolian Hall in 1893. The partnership bought out the firm of Granville Pipe Organ Company in 1889. The firm sometimes constructed impressively large organs. They made one each for the Carnegie Library in Pittsburgh, the Pabst Theater in Milwaukee, and the First Church of Christ, Scientist in Boston. A monumental pipe organ was produced for the First Presbyterian Church of Detroit in 1891 that had 2,700 pipes. An enormous pipe organ, considered to be the largest in the nation at the time, was contracted for San Francisco's St. Ignatius Church in 1897 that had 5,000 pipes that were electrically operated for ease of operation. The company made an elaborate pipe organ for the 1893 Chicago World's Fair. This massive organ was displayed in the Festival Hall at the fair, with a formal dedication on August 1, 1893. There were over 1,200 people in attendance. World-renowned musicians, including the French organist and composer Alexander Guilmant, played recitals with the colossal organ. The huge organ was played most often by Clarence Eddy, who was the organist at the First Congregational Church in Chicago. There was an award given to the Farrand & Votey Organ Company by the World's Fair jury on musical instruments. After the Chicago's World Fair the organ was taken apart and transported to the University of Michigan to be reassembled in 1894 and installed at University Hall becoming the Frieze Memorial Organ. The old original Farrand & Votey reed organs were a mechanical instrument where the organist had to push the foot pedals alternately to make the organ work. There were two pedals just above floor level below the keyboard as they sat at the organ. They were a foot long by a half a foot wide each and located a few inches apart. The organist's feet rested on these two pedals and operated the organ with them.

William Beatty (surgeon) Sir William Beatty (April 1773 – 25 March 1842) was an Irish surgeon who served in the Royal Navy. Born in Derry, Ireland, he joined as a surgeon's mate in 1791 at the age of 18. He is best known as the Ship's Surgeon aboard during the Battle of Trafalgar, at which he witnessed the death of Admiral Horatio Nelson, and for authoring an account of that battle – "". He was the eldest son of James Beatty, an officer in the Irish Revenue Service, and Ann Smyth. No records survive of his education, though he attended a local school, most likely Foyle College, before beginning his medical studies. He may have been apprenticed to his uncle George Smyth, a half-pay naval surgeon in nearby Buncrana, before studying at either the University of Glasgow or at "The United Hospitals of the Borough" - the joint medical school of Guy's and St Thomas' Hospitals in London. What is known is that on 5 May 1791, the 18-year-old Beatty was examined before the London Company of Surgeons, and found qualified for employment by the Navy. Beatty was promptly appointed Second surgeon's mate aboard the 64-gun third-rate ship , but was soon reassigned, moving to the 32-gun frigate in September 1791. He was promoted to First surgeon's mate of the 32-gun frigate on 1 February 1793, the same day that Revolutionary France declared war on Britain. The ship sailed for the Caribbean, where on 5 December 1793, he was appointed acting-surgeon of the schooner . On 25 June 1794 he was appointed acting-surgeon of the 28-gun frigate at Port-au-Prince, where he was immediately confronted with an epidemic of yellow fever in which fifty men, one-quarter of the crew, died. "Alligator" returned to England, where on 19 February 1795 Beatty was once again examined by the Company of Surgeons, and was judged qualified to serve as a ship's surgeon. Beatty was appointed to the 28-gun frigate on 8 March 1795, but soon fell foul of his captain the Hon. Augustus Fitzroy. On 19 July, a discussion over the status of two men that Beatty had placed on the Sick List quickly became acrimonious, with Fitzroy accusing Beatty of incompetence and contempt, before ordering him to be arrested.

Matt Cappotelli Matthew Lee Cappotelli (November 12, 1979 – June 29, 2018) was an American professional wrestler. After co-winning "Tough Enough III" with John Hennigan, he worked in Ohio Valley Wrestling (OVW), the primary developmental territory for WWE. He ended his career due to a malignant brain tumor. Cappotelli, along with John Hennigan, won a World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) contract by winning "Tough Enough III". During the show Hardcore Holly aggressively roughed up Matt while training, stiffly striking Cappotelli repeatedly, leaving him bleeding. After winning, he made sporadic appearances on WWE shows. At Vengeance Cappotelli competed in The APA Invitational Bar Room Brawl which Bradshaw won. Cappotelli was then sent to Ohio Valley Wrestling (OVW). There, he formed a tag team known as The Thrill Seekers with Johnny Jeter. On November 9 at an OVW television taping, Cappotelli captured the OVW Heavyweight Championship by defeating his former tag team partner, Johnny Jeter. On February 8, 2006, he announced that he had previously been diagnosed with a grade 2/3 astrocytoma and surrendered the title to OVW owner Danny Davis at a television taping in Louisville, Kentucky. Cappotelli announced to OVW wrestlers and fans on April 4, 2007 that he would undergo surgery for brain cancer in Boston on May 1. WWE's official website later reported that the surgery was a success, and that the majority of the brain tumor was removed. He was released from his contract in January 2009. Toward the end of 2013, Cappotelli became the trainer for OVW's Beginner Program. Cappotelli attended college at Western Michigan University in Kalamazoo, Michigan, where he was also a member of the football team. Cappotelli was married to Lindsay. They resided in Louisville, Kentucky, where he also worked as a personal trainer. He was close friends with professional wrestler and Western Michigan alumnus, Colt Cabana. His cousin is "Big Brother" winner Lisa Donahue. In July 2017, Cappotelli announced that he was diagnosed with grade IV glioblastoma multiforme. In May 2018, Cappotelli's wife announced that, after consultations with his neuro-oncologist, Cappotelli was ceasing medical interventions for the tumor. He died on June 29, 2018, at the age of 38.

Hong Kong Basic Law Article 45 Hong Kong Basic Law Article 45 () is an article in the Basic Law (constitution) of Hong Kong. It states that the Chief executive should be chosen by universal suffrage upon nomination by a broadly representative nominating committee as an eventual goal. Article 45 gives the requirements for choosing the Chief Executive: Details of procedures to be adopted are found in Annex I to the Basic Law where the same expression "broadly representative" is used to describe the constituency of the Election Committee notwithstanding its only representing a tiny section of the total number of registered electors. The focus of initial controversy was on the timetable for progress towards universal suffrage but, having extracted a promise of a timetable of reform (2016 for the legislature and 2017 for the Chief Executive) heated debate ensued over the details of the election systems to be employed. Positions on both sides hardened in early 2013, with the newly appointed chairman of the PRC government's Law Committee, Qiao Xiaoyang, espousing hard-to-define pre-conditions on CE candidature, ("love China and Hong Kong" and "not oppose the Central Government") including declaring that Beijing would refuse to appoint an unsupportive Hong Kong CE even if democratically elected. Pro-democracy groups formed the Alliance for True Democracy in support of the Occupy Central with Love and Peace protest movement, devised by University of Hong Kong Associate Professor Benny Tai, demanding unconditional universal suffrage.

These vessels, built in Gdańsk in Poland, can each carry 31 cars or 4 trucks, as well as 95 passengers. The crossing takes approximately 20 minutes, and ferries leave around every half-hour at peak times. The Bluemull Sound Ferry sails from Gutcher on Yell to Belmont on Unst and Oddsta on Fetlar. The ferries travel to Unst approximately every half-hour during the day, and to Fetlar a few times every day. The journey to Unst takes ten minutes, while travelling to Fetlar takes 25 minutes. The service is operated by "Bigga" and "Geira". There are two main roads, the A968 and the B9081. The A968 runs from Ulsta in the south west of the island to Gutcher in the north east, linking the ferry to and from Mainland, Shetland, with those going to Unst and Fetlar. Despite being a listed A road, it is single track in some stretches with passing places. The B9081 is single track with passing places. It runs along the south coast of Yell, and up its east, and part of the north east too. The stretch from Mid Yell to Gutcher is replaced by the A968, but it recommences after that. Yell's industries include fishing, fish farming, farming (including commercial strawberry production in polytunnels, mainly for the Shetland market), peat cutting, transport and tourism. Cullivoe had a new deep water harbour built in 1991, but the general decline in fish stocks in the North Sea and North Atlantic has not made it useful to fishing. It may however fulfil a transport role. In January 2008, the Shetland Development Trust gave a loan worth £11,000 to Global Yell Ltd, in order to develop "creative industries", i.e. textile weaving and music. The "world's first community-owned tidal power generator" became operational during April 2014 in Bluemull Sound. The turbine is a 30 kW device by Nova Innovation. North Yell Development Council believed that the project could make a significant contribution to the local economy. Built in 1707, the now ruined stone building of Windhouse is claimed as the most haunted house in Shetland. In 1880, when Windhouse was renovated, skeletons were found under the floor of the building. After lying empty for over 80 years, it was bought in 2003 by an English couple intending to restore it.

Mario Payeras Mario Payeras born in Chimaltenango, Guatemala in 1940. He died in Mexico in 1995. He studied philosophy at the University of San Carlos, in the Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM), and the University of Leipzig, Germany . Youth was a member of the Guatemalan Labor Party (Partido Guatemalteco del Trabajo), which provided intellectuals with scholarships to socialist countries. In Cuba. Payeras was part of the ranks of the Guerrilla Army of the Poor (Ejército Guerrillero de los Pobres or EGP) in 1968, as one of its founders and a member of its Dirección Nacional. Payeras was the ideologist of EGP's military-political strategy. Payeras was part of the first contingent that forms the original focus of the EGP in the jungles of Ixcan where he wrote his first novel about "Los Días de la Selva" (The Days of the Jungle). After the military offensive of the dictatorial regime in 1981–82, he contemplated the military defeat of the rebellion in his work "Los fusiles de Octubre" (October Rifles) and "El Trueno en la Ciudad" (Thunder in the City). The work argues for a change in strategy of revolutionary struggle but it was rejected by EGP. As a result Payeras broke away from the organization in 1984 citing ethical, political and ideological differences. Along with a prominent contingent of cadres that followed him, he formed a new armed revolutionary organization called Octubre Revolucionario (Revolutionary October). Abandoned years later by several of his followers, Payeras died in hiding in Mexico City. His remains were buried in a remote cemetery in southeastern Mexico along with the legendary guerrilla leader Marco Antonio Yon Sosa and an Achi indigenous guerrilla leader. A few years after, the remains of Payeras were stolen by criminals and have since disappeared. He is remembered as a writer to win the Casa de las Americas Prize for his play The Days of the Jungle (1981). He was included in the Dictionary of Guatemalans Authors and Critics and has influenced several prominent Guatemalan writers like Francisco Alejandro Mendez and others. His works been translated into several languages including English and German.

Carlos Slim, the richest man in Mexico and one of the richest in the world, has a personal fortune equal to 4 to 6 percent of the country's GDP. In spite of efforts by government officials during the past three administrations; transition to globalization, the NAFTA agreement; Mexico has been unable to create efficient public policies in order to compensate for the distortion of its market and the poor distribution of national income. The absence of basic agreements among Mexico's main political parties for more than ten years has caused a serious backwardness in needed legislation in a number of areas. The current economic framework needs adjustment on virtually all levels including business development opportunities, fair competition, tax collection and tax law; commerce, trade and finance regulations. The Mexican economy does not support unprivileged businesses, considering its current standards regarding monopolies, both in the public and private sectors. By law, there are public monopolies: government-owned companies controlling oil and gas, electricity, water, etc. Private sector monopolies and duopolies are found in the media, television, telecommunications, and raw materials. For this reason, clear principles of competitiveness that offer incentives to private investment, both national and foreign, are needed in order for jobs to be created. Mexico's rampant poverty, lagged social development and general public welfare is strongly tied to its politics. Historically, the political system of Mexico has not favored the general population, mainly because it focused to become and be a single-party system of government, largely dubbed "institutionalized" where those in charge had a one-voice, unquestionable plan of action mainly focused to favor the few "elite" while ignoring the welfare of the rest of population. From the 1800s to the end of the 20th century, as presidential administration came and went, the forms of government has been described as authoritarian, semi-democracy, centralized government, untouchable presidencies, mass-controlling, corporatist and elite-controlled. As each administration took turn, some changes have occurred, sometimes as to contribute to the welfare of the least fortunate but, overall, the political framework behind the economic and social structure of the country continues to be the greatest contributor to inequality. While the NAFTA agreement proved effective in increasing Mexico's economic performance, foreign trade policies have been heavily criticized by activists such as Michael Moore (in Awful Truth) as not doing enough to promote social advancement and reducing poverty. To remain competitive in the international market, Mexico has had to offer low wages to its workers while allowing high returns and generous concessions to international corporations.

Tory claims that at Kennedy station a rider would get to Union Station in less than 30 minutes using SmartTrack’s service instead of 40 minutes along TTC's Line 2 and Line 1 subways. SmartTrack is also the latest proposal to bring rapid transit along Eglinton West to Pearson International Airport after the Eglinton West Subway was cancelled. By connecting to the Eglinton line at Mount Dennis there would be rapid transportation along Eglinton from Pearson International Airport to Kennedy Road. Tory estimated the cost of SmartTrack to be $8 billion, although no detailed studies were undertaken. As proposed by Tory, Toronto's share would be paid for by using tax increment financing. It was expected that the provincial and federal government would each contribute a third of the cost. Mississauga and Markham would also pay their 1/3 share for their portions of the SmartTrack Line, although they made no commitments. SmartTrack would likely lead to an overhaul of TTC bus routes. Residents of Etobicoke and Scarborough would take an express bus to their closest SmartTrack station instead of the distant terminuses of Line 1 and 2. By diverting these passengers SmartTrack would also benefit North York commuters on the current overcapacity feeder bus routes to the Line 1 subway. There has been an ongoing discussion as to economic benefits of Toronto's different rapid transit choices. According to Tess Kalinowski, writing in the "Toronto Star", a study co-authored by Andre Sorensen, a University of Toronto professor of Human Geography, SmartTrack's route would average 12 hectares per kilometre available for redevelopment. This was slightly more than the 11.1 hectares per kilometre available if the TTC's heavy rail system were extended from Kennedy station to Sheppard. But it was less than the 18.4 hectares per kilometre available on the Sheppard East LRT. A controversial part of Tory’s SmartTrack proposal during the election campaign was the Eglinton spur, from Mount Dennis to the Airport Corporate Centre in Mississauga. During the election campaign, Tory promised it would not require tunnelling, then acknowledged under pressure that it might. (Tory and his campaign staff had planned to use the former Richview Expressway corridor to run commuter trains westwards from Mount Dennis. However, that land was no longer available having been sold off for private development. Also the Tory team underestimated the technical difficulties of the large turning circle that heavy rail vehicles would require at Mount Dennis. This forced the need for much more expensive tunnel and elevated sections.)

About 15.3% of families and 19.0% of the population were below the poverty line, including 18.1% of those under age 18 and 19.5% of those age 65 or over. Within the town, many smaller localized communities have evolved. All had their own businesses/industries. The primary industry of the original Scottish settlers was sheep farming and supporting entities which evolved into today's modern dairy farming. As major roads permeated the area, a secondary travel and vacation industry sprang up which provided extensive vacation/recreational rental properties on both Black Lake and the St Lawrence River. Business and industries included in the townships history have included, glass factories, asheries, tanneries, restaurants, gas stations, auto repair, 2 post offices, a lumber yard, a bowling alley, a bank, a library, a phone company, cottage rentals, boat/motor/general marine services, barber shops, antiques, saw mills, blacksmiths, a farm store, general stores, stone quarries, milk processing plants, cheese factories, coal storage cribs/coal sale and delivery etc. A railroad spur line passed through the western side of the Village of Hammond and was in limited use until the early-mid-1960s. The original railroad depot is still standing in the same spot. Many of the original stone quarries are still identifiable. A stone quarry on Oak Island in Chippewa Bay supplied stone to build Boldt Castle. It even had its own railway to move cut stone to the boats used to transport the stone. A stone quarry that was once located in South Hammond on Route 37 supplied sandstone to make local roads. This quarry at one time employed approximately 600 men. The Town of Hammond Museum, formed by R.T. Elethorp Historical Society, saved an original quarry building from the South Hammond quarry and moved it to the current museum property. The remnants of where many of the old forgotten business once stood can still be seen today. The Village of Hammond also has a mason's lodge, a retirement home, several churches and a town museum (previously mentioned).

Other festivals are Eid-ul-Fitr, Eid-ul-Adhaa/Bakreed, Vijayadashami, Makar Sankranti, Vasant Panchami, Ayudha Puja, Janmashtami, Sardhana Christian Fair, Maha Shivaratri, Mahavir Janma Kalyanak, Ayurved Jhansi Mahotsav, Bārah Wafāṭ, Chhath puja, Lucknow Mahotsav, Moharram, Kabob and Hanuman Jayanti. A typical day-to-day traditional vegetarian meal of Uttar Pradesh, like any other North Indian thali, consists of roti (flatbread), chawal, dal, sabji, raita and papad. On festive occasions, usually 'tava' (flat pan for roti) is considered inauspicious, and instead fried foods are consumed. A typical festive thali consists of Puri, Kachauri, sabji, pulav, papad, raita, salad and desserts (such as sewai or Kheer). Lassi (yogurt-based) and chaach (traditional buttermilk) are most favoured drink in Uttar Pradesh. Many communities have their own particular style of cuisines, such as the Jains, Kayasths and Muslims. There are also certain sub-regional delicacies. Awadhi cuisine is world-famous for dishes such as kebab, biryani, keema and nihari. Sweets occupy an important place in the Hindu diet and are eaten at social ceremonies. People make distinctive sweetmeats from milk products, including khurchan, peda, gulabjamun, petha, makkhan malai, and chamcham. The chaat in Lucknow and Banarasi Paan is known across India for its flavour and ingredients. Awadhi cuisine is from the city of Lucknow. The cuisine consists of both vegetarian and non-vegetarian dishes. Awadh has been greatly influenced by Mughal cooking techniques, and the cuisine of Lucknow bears similarities to those of Central Asia, Kashmir, Punjab and Hyderabad; and the city is known for Nawabi foods. The bawarchis and rakabdars of Awadh gave birth to the dum style of cooking or the art of cooking over a slow fire, which has become synonymous with Lucknow today. Their spread consisted of elaborate dishes like kebabs ("shish kebab" or "shashlik"), kormas, biryani, kaliya, nahari-kulchas, zarda, sheermal, roomali rotis, and warqi parathas.

A few months later he received a commission in the New Zealand Staff Corps as a major. In 1920, Puttick was appointed commander of the Fiji Expeditionary Force, which had been raised following a request from the Fijian government for military forces to support local police dealing with striking labourers and farmers. The force, numbering about 55 men, was based in Fiji for two months before returning home. He then served in a number of staff positions. He was sent to England for attachment to the War Office and the same year attended the Imperial Defence College in 1937, with the rank of colonel. He was also one of New Zealand's representatives at the coronation of King George VI and Queen Elizabeth in Westminster Abbey. In 1938 he was appointed as Adjutant General of the New Zealand Military Forces as well as a second term as Quartermaster General, having previously served in this capacity from 1934 to 1936. Puttick was commanding the Central Military District when the Second World War broke out and, as a skilled administrator, played a key role in the raising of the Second New Zealand Expeditionary Force (2NZEF) for service overseas. The 4th Infantry Brigade with Puttick, promoted to temporary brigadier, as its commander was to be the first brigade of the newly formed 2nd New Zealand Division, under the overall command of Major General Bernard Freyberg. The brigade duly departed for the Middle East in January 1940. Puttick oversaw the training of the brigade once it settled in its base in Egypt. In June 1940, Freyberg travelled to England to where the second infantry brigade of the division had been shipped. In his absence, Puttick was temporary commander of the New Zealand forces in Egypt. Anticipating a German invasion of Greece, the division was one of the Allied units transferred to that country. Arriving in April 1941, he led the brigade competently during the Battle of Greece as it retreated from the Aliakmon Line in northern Greece to the Servia Pass and onto the beaches at Porto Rafti from where it was evacuated on 27 April to Crete. He was later awarded a Bar to his DSO for his "gallantry and devotion to duty" during this period. On Crete, Puttick was promoted to temporary major general and, following Freyberg's appointment as the commander of Creforce, took over responsibility for the 2nd New Zealand Division. During the Battle of Crete his failure to pressure James Hargest, one of his brigade commanders, to make a counterattack to support the defenders of Maleme airfield resulted in its eventual loss to the Germans.

Ekbalpore triple murder Ekbalpore triple murder was the gruesome murder of a widow and her two teenage daughters which took place in Kolkata, India in March 2014. According to Kolkata police the two daughters were strangulated after being hit by hammer and their mother was strangulated. Then their bodies were buried under the shop owned by accused which led the mysterious disappearance of the family. The victim's family accused the police of harassment as they had mentioned the prime accused Sikandar as their suspect. The police claimed Pushpa ran away with her lover. After two weeks police found, Pushpa Singh, 37, and her daughters Pradipti Singh, 14, and Aradhana, 12, were murdered and buried in the shop of prime accused Sikandar on 30 March. The residents protested outside court with black flags. The local police were accused of going soft on prime accused Sikandar though he was named by the victims' kin. At first the case looked like disappearance. The accused bought cement, bricks, sand and stone chips on 2 April for cementing the floor after digging it up to bury the bodies of the widow and her two daughters. Investigators found they were murdered for flats. The case resulted in political blamegame as the accused men had relations with local politician and one of them had the support of a political party. The opposition party and minority organization led a candle light march for the victims.

They weigh between and are sexually dimorphic as the males are substantially larger than females. The average gestation period is 42 days and females may have two or three litters each year. The litter size is usually between three and seven kits which are weaned after three to six weeks and become independent at three months. They become sexually mature at approximately six months and the average life span is seven to 10 years. Ferrets are induced ovulators. Ferrets spend 14–18 hours a day asleep and are most active around the hours of dawn and dusk, meaning they are crepuscular If they are caged, they should be taken out daily to exercise and satisfy their curiosity; they need at least an hour and a place to play. Unlike their polecat ancestors, which are solitary animals, most ferrets will live happily in social groups. They are territorial, like to burrow, and prefer to sleep in an enclosed area. Like many other mustelids, ferrets have scent glands near their anus, the secretions from which are used in scent marking. Ferrets can recognize individuals from these anal gland secretions, as well as the sex of unfamiliar individuals. Ferrets may also use urine marking for sex and individual recognition. As with skunks, ferrets can release their anal gland secretions when startled or scared, but the smell is much less potent and dissipates rapidly. Most pet ferrets in the US are sold descented (anal glands removed). In many other parts of the world, including the UK and other European countries, de-scenting is considered an unnecessary mutilation. If excited, they may perform a behavior called the "weasel war dance", characterized by frenzied sideways hops, leaps and bumping into nearby objects. Despite its common name, it is not aggressive but is a joyful invitation to play. It is often accompanied by a unique soft clucking noise, commonly referred to as "dooking". When scared, ferrets will hiss; when upset, they squeak softly. Ferrets are obligate carnivores. The natural diet of their wild ancestors consisted of whole small prey, including meat, organs, bones, skin, feathers, and fur. Ferrets have short digestive systems and quick metabolism, so they need to eat frequently. Prepared dry foods consisting almost entirely of meat (including high-grade cat food, although specialized ferret food is increasingly available and preferable) provide the most nutritional value and are the most convenient, though some ferret owners feed pre-killed or live prey (such as mice and rabbits) to their ferrets to more closely mimic their natural diet.

Congressional nominating caucus The Congressional nominating caucus is the name for informal meetings in which American congressmen would agree on whom to nominate for the Presidency and Vice Presidency from their political party. The system was introduced after George Washington had announced his retirement upon the end of his second term, when the Democratic-Republican Party, and Federalist Party began contesting elections on a partisan basis. Both parties may have held informal caucuses in 1796 to try to decide on their candidates. After the disorganized electoral voting of 1796, both parties held formal caucuses in 1800 that selected their respective presidential candidates (prior to the ratification of the 12th Amendment in 1804 each party ran two presidential candidates). The Federalists secretly held their caucus in early May, but later made their ticket of President John Adams and Charles Cotesworth Pinckney public. The Democratic-Republicans also secretly met in May, and agreed to equally support Thomas Jefferson and Aaron Burr for president. The Federalists did not hold another caucus after 1800. In 1804, after the passage of the 12th Amendment, the Democratic-Republicans caucus met again. In a ballot of the caucus, George Clinton defeated John Breckinridge and was nominated as Jefferson's running mate. At the 1808 caucus, supporters of James Madison defeated attempts to nominate Clinton or James Monroe instead of Madison. Clinton was nominated as the vice presidential nominee, but Clinton criticized the legitimacy of the caucus system and both Clinton and Monroe considered running for president. The Federalists meanwhile, held a proto-national convention in New York in 1808, where they nominated Charles Cotesworth Pinckney and Rufus King. In 1812, Madison won unanimous re-nomination by the caucus. However, the Democratic-Republican members of the New York legislature denounced the caucus system as illegitimate, and instead nominated DeWitt Clinton, the nephew of George Clinton. The Federalists held another proto-convention in 1812, there they agreed to support Clinton. Clinton ultimately lost the election, but provided a strong challenge to Madison and won 89 electoral votes. In 1816, James Monroe narrowly won his party's nomination over William H. Crawford. Instead of contesting the caucus result, Crawford supported Monroe's candidacy and decided to bide his time until a future election. Another Democratic-Republican caucus met in 1820, but adjourned without making a nomination. Monroe's 1820 re-election campaign went unopposed, as the Federalists had become extremely weak at the national level and no Democratic-Republican challenged Monroe, making Monroe the only presidential candidate since Washington to have been re-elected without serious opposition.

(Sing Shi-Wo-Wo) Stop the Pollution "(Sing Shi-Wo-Wo) Stop the Pollution" is a 1991 song recorded by the Sweden-based musician and producer Dr Alban. It was released as the fourth and last single from his debut album, "Hello Afrika". The song was a moderate hit in Europe, peaking at number 3 in Finland, number 13 in Switzerland, number 16 in Austria and number 36 in Sweden. The song is produced by Denniz Pop, who also co-wrote it with Dr. Alban.

To keep the album atop the chart, "My Boo" was targeted for release after "Confessions Part II" was diminishing on the Hot 100. The B-side of the UK release includes "Red Light" and "Sweet Lies". The single again topped the Hot 100, giving the album its fourth consecutive number-one. "Caught Up" was released as the album's fifth and final single, and reached number eight in the United States. Usher supported the album with a two-month concert tour called "The Truth Tour". The tour set featured a small stage up on top of the main stage, where the band played with Usher and his supporting dancers left with enough room to perform. The smaller stage had a mini platform attached to it—which lowered to the main stage—and had two big staircases on both sides of it. To the left, a group of circular staircases climbed to the top, and to the right, there was a fire escape replete with steps and an elevator. Kanye West, who had finished his own headlining tour for his 2004 album "The College Dropout", was the opening act for "The Truth Tour". Preceding Usher's entrance was a short movie showing him getting dressed, following on with him performing the opening song "Caught Up", with Usher dressed in all white. The second song performed was "You Make Me Wanna...", where two dancers stayed on the top stage with Usher while two male dancers came out to the lower level with two chairs each in their hands. Each dancer threw one chair up to the top, with Usher already in hand with his own chair, with everyone following a set dance routine. Following this, Usher performed "U Remind Me", where he danced by himself during a breakdown of the track. He then sang "That's What It's Made For", following on with the song "Bad Girl", where Usher was dressed up in a lavender suit and came out in a chrome chair. During the song, Usher picked out a female from the crowd, transitioning to "Superstar", singing to the fan. Usher continued singing to the fan, performing "Can U Handle It?", closing the song by kissing the fan who then left the stage. Usher closed his performance with "Confessions" lead single "Yeah!". "The Truth Tour" commenced on August 5, 2004 in Hampton, Virginia and concluded on October 7, 2004 in New York. It was ranked as one of the highest-grossing tours of 2004, grossing $29.1 million.

Defenses included a defensive bunker and an inner perimeter with outpost, and a frequency converter shelter provided the 3 phase 400 Hz power needed for precision pointing by the radar's antenna motors. The camouflaged Cassegrain antenna was on the roof of the operations shelter, while the connected shelter had a rotating identification friend or foe antenna and mast antennas for UHF and VHF communications. A calibration in September 1967 included an estimation of the AN/TSQ-81 antenna coordinates by "fly-in" using aircraft tracked by LS-85 while overflying previously-surveyed nearby peaks (surveyors at the peaks observed the flyover precision).

Fulton Subdivision The Fulton Subdivision is a railroad line owned by Canadian National in the U.S. State of New York. The line runs from Liverpool, New York, north to Oswego, New York. At its south end the line branches off of the St. Lawrence Subdivision. The CN Fulton Sub became part of New York Central and Conrail through leases, mergers, and takeovers, and was assigned to CSX Transportation in the 1999 breakup of Conrail. Under the purchase of CSX’s St. Lawrence Subdivision by the Canadian National Railway in August 2019, the Fulton Line was sold off as well with the line. Current ownership by CSX expires on May 21st, 2020, with CN assuming duties thereafter.

Jessica tells Nash "You are my heart". Nash draws a heart on Jessica's hand with his finger. A few moments later, Nash flatlines with Jessica's head on his heart. A recurring theme in their romance is the drawing of a heart. When Jessica is sick in the hospital, Nash breathes on the window of her hospital room and draws a heart. "It’s funny because I got a lot of heat from the producers/directors for that," Forbes March said. "It was a spur of the moment decision on my part, but in the end, they kept it in." While on his deathbed, he draws a heart on Jessica's hand, taking her back to that moment in the hospital. Jessica tells Nash that he is more than in her heart, he is her heart, and always will be. After Nash's death, Jessica is stalked by a person who leaves her hearts and she believes the stalker is either Nash or Nash's ghost, it was later revealed that the stalker was none other than Jessica's presumed dead father, Mitch Laurence. MSN/"TV Guide" routinely referred to the couple as a supercouple. The couple generated a loyal fanbase and were quickly labeled a supercouple, frequently being listed as a top supercouple to watch. Nash's death had a significant impact on viewers. It has been attributed as one of the most touching death scenes in soap opera history. Within the story, the character plunges through a skylight and is killed, the action and plot described as "moving", while Williamson's performance as Jessica as Nash lay dying in the hospital was described as "amazing". Jessica tries to process the difficult truth that her husband is going to die. She goes through denial, anger, and defiance in that moment; Jessica's sheer and total devastation is the most significant emotion conveyed in the scenes. Williamson was praised for having taken "things to a superhuman level". When Jessica goes into the church and prays for Nash's recovery, this allowed viewers to see that she was holding on by a thread, "the hope of divine intervention the only thing tethering her to the ground". SOAPnet named Tess and Nash one of "One Life to Live's" top fifteen couples and listed their storyline as one of the show's top forty best.

Frederick Noel Ashcroft Frederick Noel Ashcroft (1878–1949) was a British mineral collector and scientific photographer whose extensive collections from the period 1914-1938 are held by the Natural History Museum, London. Frederick Noel Ashcroft was born at Wavertree, Liverpool in 1878 to parents of German descent. He entered Rugby School in 1892 and proceeded to Magdalen College, Oxford in 1897 where he secured a first class degree in Chemistry in 1901. He then carried out research work in organic Chemistry at University College, London in the Department of Organic Chemistry. At Oxford he had also studied mineralogy under Henry Alexander Miers, from whom he acquired an interest in minerals which decided the main line of his future work. Ill health prevented him from undertaking any full time paid work. As a mineralogist Ashcroft first specialised in zeolites between 1901 and the outbreak of World War I. During this period he assembled a collection of about 2000 specimens from 80 localities chiefly in Europe and America. This collection he passed to the British Museum (Natural History) in 1914. His second sphere of interest before World War I was Ireland where he gathered a collection of zeolites from some 90 localities particularly in County Antrim. This collection was passed to the British Museum (Natural History) under the terms of his will on his death in 1949. After the end of World War 1 Ashcroft turned his interest to Switzerland making annual visits. He came to know all the leading mineralogists there and the local mineral collectors. From the collectors, many of them alpine guides, he purchased great numbers of fine specimens, but it was a condition he made that for every specimen he must be able to locate the exact locality and, if possible, to see and examine each locality himself. He would photograph the sites, and prints of his photographs would then be used to pinpoint the sites of his finds. For this work he used a half plate stand camera with a heavy tripod stand. He considered that a lighter camera producing smaller negatives did not give suitable reproductions for his purposes. The whole of the Swiss Collection of over 6000 specimens was presented to the British Museum (Natural History) between 1921 and 1938 and the catalogues and the negatives of all his photographs connected with the collection were also passed to the museum under the terms of his will."“The value of his contributions to the British Museum’s national collections of minerals is not to be measured by number of specimens but the total is close on 10,000. Ashcroft’s  gifts to the Museum far exceed those of any other single benefactor of the Department of Mineralogy”."

Nawab Syed Muhammad Bahadur Nawab Syed Muhammad Bahadur (1867–1919) was an Indian politician who served as the President of the Indian National Congress in 1913 at Karachi conference. He was the third Muslim to hold this position after Badruddin Tyabji and Rahimtulla M. Sayani. Nawab Syed Muhammad was born in Calcutta as the son of Mir Humayun Jah Bahadur, one of the wealthiest Muslims of South India. Humayun Jah was the son of Shahzadi Shah Rukh Begum, daughter of Sultan Yasin, the fourth son of Tipu Sultan. He had helped the Indian National Congress in its early stages by giving both financial and intellectual support. When the third Indian National Congress was held in 1887, Humayun Bahadur gave monetary help to the Congress leaders. Nawab Syed Muhammad joined the Indian National Congress in 1894 and became an active member of the organization. In all his speeches and addresses Syed Muhammad convincingly maintained that the Muslims and the Hindus must live like brothers and their different religions must not separate them but bind them together. He sincerely believed that the main aim of the Indian National Congress was to unite the peoples of India into a strong nation. He was the first Muslim Sheriff of Madras and was appointed as such in 1896. He was nominated to the Madras Legislative Council, in 1900. He was nominated to the Imperial Legislative Council on 19 December 1903 as a non-official member representing the Madras Provinces. Syed Muhammad was awarded the title of "Nawab" in 1897 by the British Government when he attended the Diamond Jubilee Celebration of Queen Victoria. He died on 12 February 1919. The present family now stays in Bangalore. Nawab Syed Mansoor, the son of Syed Asgher. Syed Ahmed, grandson of Nawab Syed Mohammed, was settled in Kolar in 1950. Sahebzada Syed Mansoor married Sahebzadi Raheemunissa, granddaughter of Tipu Sultan from Calcutta. Sahebzada Mansoor Ali started tehreek e khudadad. "The reluctance to revive the old village organisation and to establish village panchayats is particularly pronounced in some Provinces, while a degree of tardiness in considering proposals for the expansion of local and municipal administration coupled with the oft-repeated desire to hedge further advance with over-cautious restriction, is noticeable among all grades of administrative authorities in India."—

Czech Republic men's national basketball team The Czech national basketball team () represents the Czech Republic in international basketball tournaments. The team is controlled by the Czech Basketball Federation (ČBF). The Czech Republic is the successor to the Czechoslovakia national team after the Czech Republic split from Czechoslovakia, due to the dissolution of the unified state in 1993. The national team debuted on the continental stage at the EuroBasket in 1999. They have qualified for the competition five times overall. The Czech Republic has also reached the FIBA World Cup, where they finished sixth in their inaugural appearance in 2019. In 1993, the Czech Republic national team was officially founded after the dissolution of Czechoslovakia, and its national team. At Eurobasket 1999 in France, marked the first official tournament the Czech Republic qualified for after independence. The national team got off to a fast start, winning their first two preliminary round matches against Lithuania, and Greece, before falling to Germany. Finishing with a 2-1 record was enough for them to advance to the second round. The next round wasn't as kind to the Czech side though, as they finished last in their Group, with a 2-4 record getting thoroughly dominated in matches against Croatia, and eventual champions Italy. In all, the Czech finished their maiden voyage at the European Basketball Championship in 12th place. While Luboš Bartoň took the honor of being the second best scorer of the tournament (with 18.7 points per game). The Czech Republic made the EuroBasket four times after 1999, in 2007, 2013, 2015, and 2017. Their best finish at any of those tournaments was 7th place at EuroBasket 2015. In 2016 the Czech Republic qualified for the Olympic qualifying tournament but failed to reach the 2016 Summer Olympics. In 2019 marked another first for the national team, where they have qualified for the FIBA World Cup.

This raised such security risks as attackers impersonating HTTPS-protected websites such as Google and Bank of America and malware being signed with the certificate to bypass Microsoft software filtering. Dell apologised and offered a removal tool. Also in November 2015, a researcher discovered that customers with diagnostic program Dell Foundation Services could be digitally tracked using the unique service tag number assigned to them by the program. This was possible even if a customer enabled private browsing and deleted their browser cookies. "Ars Technica" recommended that Dell customers uninstall the program until the issue was addressed. The board consists of nine directors. Michael Dell, the founder of the company, serves as chairman of the board and chief executive officer. Other board members include Don Carty, Judy Lewent, Klaus Luft, Alex Mandl, and Sam Nunn. Shareholders elect the nine board members at meetings, and those board members who do not get a majority of votes must submit a resignation to the board, which will subsequently choose whether or not to accept the resignation. The board of directors usually sets up five committees having oversight over specific matters. These committees include the Audit Committee, which handles accounting issues, including auditing and reporting; the Compensation Committee, which approves compensation for the CEO and other employees of the company; the Finance Committee, which handles financial matters such as proposed mergers and acquisitions; the Governance and Nominating Committee, which handles various corporate matters (including the nomination of the board); and the Antitrust Compliance Committee, which attempts to prevent company practices from violating antitrust laws. Day-to-day operations of the company are run by the Global Executive Management Committee, which sets strategic direction. Dell has regional senior vice-presidents for countries other than the United States, including David Marmonti for EMEA and Stephen J. Felice for Asia/Japan. , other officers included Martin Garvin (senior vice president for worldwide procurement) and Susan Sheskey (vice president and Chief Information Officer). Dell advertisements have appeared in several types of media including television, the Internet, magazines, catalogs, and newspapers. Some of Dell Inc's marketing strategies include lowering prices at all times of the year, free bonus products (such as Dell printers), and free shipping to encourage more sales and stave off competitors. In 2006, Dell cut its prices in an effort to maintain its 19.2% market share. This also cut profit margins by more than half, from 8.7 to 4.3 percent. To maintain its low prices, Dell continues to accept most purchases of its products via the Internet and through the telephone network, and to move its customer-care division to India and El Salvador.

Clay received 37 percent of the popular vote and 49 electoral votes. Wirt received only eight percent of the popular vote and seven electoral votes while the Anti-Masonic Party eventually declined. Jackson believed the solid victory was a popular mandate for his veto of the Bank's recharter and his continued warfare on the Bank's control over the national economy. In 1833, Jackson attempted to begin removing federal deposits from the bank, whose money-lending functions were taken over by the legions of local and state banks that materialized across America, thus drastically increasing credit and speculation. Jackson's moves were greatly controversial. He removed McLane from the Treasury Department, having him serve instead as Secretary of State, replacing Edward Livingston. He replaced McLane with William J. Duane. In September, he fired Duane for refusing to remove the deposits. Signalling his intent to continue battling the Bank, he replaced Duane with Taney. Under Taney, the deposits began to be removed. They were placed in a variety of state banks which were friendly to the administration's policies, known to critics as pet banks. Biddle responded by stockpiling the Bank's reserves and contracting credit, thus causing interest rates to rise and bringing about a financial panic. The moves were intended to force Jackson into a compromise. "Nothing but the evidence of suffering abroad will produce any effect in Congress," he wrote. At first, Biddle's strategy was successful, putting enormous pressure on Jackson. But Jackson handled the situation well. When people came to him complaining, he referred them to Biddle, saying that he was the man who had "all the money." Jackson's approach worked. Biddle's strategy backfired, increasing anti-Bank sentiment. In 1834, those who disagreed with Jackson's expansion of executive power united and formed the Whig Party, calling Jackson "King Andrew I," and named their party after the English Whigs who opposed seventeenth century British monarchy. A movement emerged among Whigs in the Senate to censure Jackson. The censure was a political maneuver spearheaded by Clay, which served only to perpetuate the animosity between him and Jackson. Jackson called Clay "reckless and as full of fury as a drunken man in a brothel." On March 28, the Senate voted to censure Jackson 26–20. It also rejected Taney as Treasury Secretary. The House however, led by Ways and Means Committee chairman James K. Polk, declared on April 4 that the Bank "ought not to be rechartered" and that the depositions "ought not to be restored."

Irvin Willat Irvin V. Willat (November 18, 1890 – April 17, 1976) was an American film director of the silent film era. He directed 39 films between 1917 and 1937. Early in his career Willat worked as a cinematographer on several films. His older brother Edwin Willat (1882–1950) was cinematographer on several silent films.

Tintinnabulum A tintinnabulum (roughly "little bell" in Medieval Latin) is a bell mounted on a pole, placed in a Roman Catholic basilica to signify the church's link with the Pope. The tintinnabulum consists of a small gold bell within a golden frame crowned with the papal tiara and Keys of Heaven. If the Pope were to say Mass within the basilica, the tintinnabulum would be used to lead the very special procession down the shrine's aisle. However, these symbols are not stipulated in the 1989 Vatican directives. The tintinnabulum is one of the three physical signs which indicate that a church is a lesser basilica. The other two signs are conopaeum and a display of the papal symbol. In the Middle Ages it served the practical function of alerting the people of Rome to the approach of the Pope during papal processions. The word is attested in the "Appendix Probi" as "tintinabulum", castigated by the author as an incorrect Vulgar Latin form of the Classical "tintinaculum".

Superdrug Superdrug Stores plc (trading as Superdrug) is a health and beauty retailer in the United Kingdom, and the second largest behind Boots UK. The company has been a subsidiary of A.S. Watson Group since October 2002, itself part of the Hong Kong conglomerate CK Hutchison Holdings. It trades from nearly nine hundred shops across the United Kingdom and Ireland, and also serves Denmark, Finland and Sweden online. Superdrug employs over 14,000 people. Besides health and beauty products, the company has pharmacies with consultation rooms in over 220 shops, and a further 19 contain nurse clinics. It maintains links with sister companies also owned by A.S. Watson Group: Savers and The Perfume Shop. In 1964, Superdrug was incorporated under the name of Leading Supermarkets Limited by the Goldstein brothers in London, both of whom had experience working in the groceries retail industry. Later that year the business adopted the present name. The first Superdrug shop opened in Putney, London on 26 April 1966. By 1968, there were three shops trading in Putney, Croydon and Streatham. In the same year Superdrug acquired its first distribution centre, in Wimbledon. The chain grew rapidly, and expanded to a chain of forty shops by the beginning of the 1970s. In 1971, The Rite Aid Corporation, an American chemist chain, acquired 49% of the business. By 1981, there were three hundred Superdrug shops in the United Kingdom, and they opened their 11,148 m² (120,000 ft²) distribution centre and office complex at Beddington Lane in Croydon. This centre closed in July 2007, and the southern distribution operation moved to Dunstable, although the head office remains in Croydon. The northern distribution operates from Pontefract, West Yorkshire. In 1983, the business was floated on London's Unlisted Securities Market. In March 1987, Superdrug was sold to Woolworth Holdings (now known as Kingfisher plc) for £57 million. The sale allowed accelerated growth of the brand through utilisation of Kingfisher's surplus high street property portfolio and substantial financial assets. In January 1988, Superdrug acquired Tip-Top, a discount chemist chain which had a large presence in the north of England and Scotland, and Share Drug Stores plc, a southern-based chain. These acquisitions and an aggressive expansion programme saw the chain grow to six hundred outlets throughout the United Kingdom. Superdrug continued to grow over the next eight years, increasing profitability and market share.

Galileo proposed that objects falling regardless of their mass would fall at the same rate, as long as the medium they fall in is identical. The 19th-century distinction of a scientific enterprise apart from traditional natural philosophy has its roots in prior centuries. Proposals for a more "inquisitive" and practical approach to the study of nature are notable in Francis Bacon, whose ardent convictions did much to popularize his insightful Baconian method. The Baconian method is employed throughout Thomas Browne's encyclopaedia Pseudodoxia Epidemica (1646-72) which debunks a wide-range of common fallacies through empirical investigation of nature. The late 17th-century natural philosopher Robert Boyle wrote a seminal work on the distinction between physics and metaphysics called, "A Free Enquiry into the Vulgarly Received Notion of Nature", as well as "The Skeptical Chymist", after which the modern science of chemistry is named, (as distinct from proto-scientific studies of alchemy). These works of natural philosophy are representative of a departure from the medieval scholasticism taught in European universities, and anticipate in many ways, the developments which would lead to science as practiced in the modern sense. As Bacon would say, "vexing nature" to reveal "her" secrets, (scientific experimentation), rather than a mere reliance on largely historical, even anecdotal, observations of empirical phenomena, would come to be regarded as a defining characteristic of modern science, if not the very key to its success. Boyle's biographers, in their emphasis that he laid the foundations of modern chemistry, neglect how steadily he clung to the scholastic sciences in theory, practice and doctrine. However, he meticulously recorded observational detail on practical research, and subsequently advocated not only this practice, but its publication, both for successful and unsuccessful experiments, so as to validate individual claims by replication. Natural philosophers of the late 17th or early 18th century were sometimes insultingly described as 'projectors'. A projector was an entrepreneur who invited people to invest in his invention but - as the caricature went - could not be trusted, usually because his device was impractical. Jonathan Swift satirized natural philosophers of the Royal Society as 'the academy of projectors' in his novel "Gulliver's Travels." Historians of science have argued that natural philosophers and the so-called projectors sometimes overlapped in their methods and aims. The modern emphasis is less on a broad empiricism (one that includes passive observation of nature's activity), but on a narrow conception of the empirical concentrating on the "control" exercised through experimental (active) observation for the sake of "control" of nature.

Nicholas Schenck Nicholas M. Schenck (14 November 1880, Rybinsk, Russia – 4 March 1969, Florida) was an American film studio executive and businessman. One of seven children, Schenck was born to a Jewish household in Rybinsk, a town on the Volga River in the Yaroslavl Governorate of Tsarist Russia. He emigrated to the United States in 1892 where he settled in a tenement on New York's Lower East Side. Subsequently, he relocated to Harlem, the population of which at that time consisted primarily of Jewish and Italian immigrants. Upon his arrival in the United States, he and his older brother Joseph worked as a team hawking newspapers and subsequently in a drugstore. Within two years they had saved up enough money to buy out the drugstore's owner and began casting about for other business ventures. One summer day, the Schencks took a trolley ride to Fort George Amusement Park, in uptown Manhattan, and noticed that thousands of people were milling around idly waiting for the return trains. The brothers rented a beer concession and also provided some vaudeville entertainment. It was at this time that the Schencks made the acquaintance of Marcus Loew, a theater operator. Loew, having noted the brothers' success, advanced them capital, permitting them to establish Palisades Amusement Park in Bergen County, New Jersey, directly across the river from Manhattan, in 1908. It remained in operation until 1971, although the brothers sold their interest in 1934. Subsequently, Nicholas Schenck and his brother worked with Loew in the theater business. Between approximately 1907 and 1919, they reinvested in real estate for nickelodeons, vaudeville, and eventually motion pictures. In 1919, Loew acquired a movie studio. At this time, Nicholas Schenck was spending more time with Loew's, Inc., so it was Joseph who relocated to Hollywood, eventually becoming president of United Artists Corporation. Schenck eventually became Loew's right-hand man, helping him manage what rapidly grew into a vast theater chain. He also helped shepherd Loew's acquisition of Metro Pictures and Goldwyn Pictures to keep the theaters supplied with product. Loew soon realized he needed someone in Hollywood to run his studio interests. Schenck seemed the obvious choice, but Loew concluded that he needed Schenck in New York to help run the theaters. He bought a studio headed by independent producer Louis B. Mayer in 1924, merging the Loew's Hollywood interests into Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer with Mayer as studio chief.

Without a clutch, the engine would stall any time the vehicle stopped and changing gears would be difficult (deselecting a gear while the transmission requires the driver to adjust the throttle so that the transmission is not under load, and selecting a gear requires the engine RPM to be at the exact speed that matches the road speed for the gear being selected). Most motor vehicles use a pedal to operate the clutch; except for motorcycles, which usually have a clutch lever on the left handlebar. In most vehicles with a manual transmission, the driver selects gears by manipulating a lever called a "gear stick" (also called a "gearshift", "gear lever" or "shifter"). In most automobiles, the gear stick is often located on the floor between the driver and front passenger, however, so cars have a gear stick that is mounted to the steering column or center console. The movement of the gear stick is transferred (via solid linkages or cables) to the selector forks within the transmission. Motorcycles typically employ sequential transmissions, although the shift pattern is modified slightly for safety reasons. Gear selection is usually via the left foot pedal with a layout of In the 1950s, 1960s, and 1970s, fuel-efficient highway cruising with low engine speed was in some cases enabled on vehicles equipped with 3- or 4-speed transmissions by means of a separate overdrive unit in or behind the rear housing of the transmission. This was actuated either manually while in high gear by throwing a switch or pressing a button on the gearshift knob or on the steering column, or automatically by momentarily lifting the foot from the accelerator with the vehicle traveling above a certain road speed. Automatic overdrives were disengaged by flooring the accelerator, and a lockout control was provided to enable the driver to disable overdrive and operate the transmission as a normal (non-overdrive) transmission. The term 'overdrive' is also used to describe a gear with a ratio of less than one (e.g., if the top gear of the transmission has a ratio of 0.8:1). Vehicles with a manual transmission can often be push started when the starter motor is not operational, such as when the car has a flat battery. When push-starting, the energy generated by the wheels moving on the road is transferred to the driveshaft, then the transmission, and eventually the crankshaft. When the crankshaft spins as a result of the energy generated by the rolling of the vehicle, the motor is cranked over.

Peter Scharmach Peter Scharmach (born 31 May 1964 in Remscheid) is an auto racing driver who is of both German and New Zealand nationality, who lives in Christchurch. Scharmach started his career in the rally sport during the 80s. During the 1990s Scharmach raced in a number of touring car racing series in Germany and New Zealand, such as the Deutsche Tourenwagen Challenge. Between 2000 and 2005 he competed in selected races of series such as the Renault Eurocup, Porsche Supercup and SEAT Leon Supercopa Germany. In 2005, he raced at the season-ending round of the World Touring Car Championship at Macau for Engstler Motorsport. He finished third in the New Zealand Mini Challenge in 2006-07 and has also raced in the German equivalent. He finished fourth at the 2007 24 Hours Nürburgring. He raced in the Peugeot THP Spider Cup in 2008, and in ADAC GT Masters in 2009.

In November 1944, Posner prepared a report on the German archival profession, including biographical sketches and estimates of political views, for 72 leading German archivists. He wrote numerous War Department manuals relating to German and Italian record-keeping practices and served as an advisor for the United States Army's Department Records Branch on German documents. These documents were eventually used as evidence at many crucial war crimes trials. Posner’s German heritage was questioned by many when he applied for citizenship in 1943. For example, Posner was accused by Senator Kenneth McKellar for attempting to make the bombing of the National Archive easier by switching the records boxes from cardboard into steel. However, on February 16, 1944, Buck appeared before the Senate Subcommittee on Independent Agencies and defended Posner. Posner also held various positions at American University. They included acting as the chairman of the History Department (1947 - 1961), director of the School of Social Sciences and Public Affairs (1947 - 1961), and dean of the Graduate School (1955 - 1957). One of his responsibilities as Graduate School dean was counseling prospective students. This included Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis when she was considering working towards an M.A. in history. Posner took great pride in one of the courses that he offered during summers entitled "The Institute on the Preservation and Administration of Archives". According to his own words, "[i]t became the prototype of many such courses now being offered in various parts of the country and has helped to create some "esprit de corps" and to impart professional know how to those working in the archives field." From 1940 - 1967 he published and reviewed articles in the "American Archivist", "American Historical Review", "Der Archivar", "Archivum", "Indian Archives", and other periodicals. He also essayed articles on archives for Collier's Encyclopedia and the Encyclopedia Americana. Posner's 1964 work, "American State Archives", “told an uncomplimentary story of archival lethargy or neglect in about three quarters of the states of the Union." At that time, Posner's research showed that twelve states did not have any official archivists and that nine of those had no formalized system for the management of permanent government records. In the years following the publication of the book many states began to follow the archival standards proposed by Posner. One of Posner's most famous books, published in 1972, is entitled "Archives in the Ancient World". Posner sought to record the history of archival administration beginning, as few did before him, the ancient world.

Crown and Thistle Inn, Monmouth The Crown and Thistle Inn was a public house in Monmouth, Monmouthshire, Wales. It was in the historic Agincourt Square neighbourhood. Prior to its conversion to a public house, the building served as the premises of an apothecary. During the early nineteenth century, the Crown and Thistle Inn briefly housed one of the earliest Masonic Lodges in Monmouthshire. The Crown and Thistle Inn, a public house in Monmouth, was located on the north side of Agincourt Square, near the site of a previous bull ring. The building stood on the ground which is now the entrance to Priory Street. Prior to its use as a public house, the Crown and Thistle Inn had been occupied by an apothecary. The house, located on the bank of the River Monnow, had been the premises for many years of the apothecary, a Mr. Morgan. Later, Morgan's son was the proprietor of the business. The building was eventually redeveloped as a public house, the Crown and Thistle Inn. During the course of making improvements to the property, a Mr. Powell removed a stone with an attached ring. That area of Agincourt Square was referred to as the Bull Ring. Author Charles Heath indicated that it had been the custom to tie a bull to the ring, and that previous Monmouth residents had availed themselves of a "cruel diversion." Author William Meyler Warlow indicated that the townspeople had "enjoyed the cruel sport of bull-baiting." Dogs were bred to attack a restrained bull around the face, biting and hanging on until exhausted. The practice of bull-baiting was outlawed by the Cruelty to Animals Act 1835. Powell was the liquor purveyor at the Crown and Thistle Inn at the time that the improvements to the property were made. Later, in 1804, the proprietor of the inn was a Mr. Barlow. In the mid-nineteenth century, "Pigot's Directory of 1844", under the listing of "Taverns & Public Houses," indicated that the proprietor of the Crown and Thistle in Agincourt Square was Charles Edwards. In his 1804 account of the history of Monmouth, Heath offered his opinion that a visitor to the town would find no better establishment in which to partake of refreshments than the Crown and Thistle Inn, with particular regard to its garden in the summer.

On August 6, 1856, Walter as Secretary of the Board of Underwriters, spoke about the rate of the premium to be charged to the port of Fernandina, Florida as compared with other southern Atlantic ports. The correspondence goes on to say that “there is a light-house on Amelia island, and there are buoys for marking the entrance.” On July 19, 1858, Walter as president of the Mercantile Mutual Insurance Company, made a claim against the government of China for compensation for losses sustained by the cargo ship "Caldera". The ship was robbed, burned and destroyed by the Chinese while it was anchored in Tylo, China. At this time C. J. Despart had become secretary of the Mercantile Mutual Insurance Company. On June 13, 1857, Walter on behalf of the Board of Underwriters, approved the publication of the volume The New York Marine Register for Thomas D. Taylor. In October 1861, Walter became a trustee of the Nautical School for the harbor of New York. Its purpose was to educate boys in seamanship and navigation. In May 1869, George W. Blunt became a trustee (along with Walter) of the Nautical School for the harbor of New York. Walter reported that on March 11, 1862, the brig "William C. Clark", ran ashore on Skiff Island with the vessel and cargo saved because of the master and principal owner, Capt. H. Daggett. He was successful in retaining his crew and could proceed on with their voyage. In 1865, Captain Bennett and Walter corresponded by letter regarding the steamer "Annie" and an accident near Savannah, Georgia, which caused her to leak badly. The steamer was insured by the Mercantile Mutual Insurance Company for 10,000 dollars. Captain J. Clark was Master of the steamer. In 1868, Walter as president of the Mercantile Mutual Insurance Company, advertised that a payment to policy-holders would be made for 20%. The annual statement for January 1869 showed that net premiums for the year were $1,072,918.40 and net earnings for the year were $318,293.93. On May 14, 1871, Walter was elected as Vice-President of the "New York Seamen’s Association". The association was to help provide the “moral, mental, and social improvement of the seamen; to elevate their character and efficiency as a class, and to protect them from impositions and abuses at home and abroad.” $20,000 dollars was raised to build a building for the Seamen's Association.

A quarter-century after John Smith's voyage, English colonists began to settle in Maryland. The English were initially frightened by the Piscataway in southern Maryland because of their body paint and war regalia, even though they were a peaceful tribe. The chief of the Piscataway tribe was quick to grant the English permission to settle within Piscataway territory and cordial relations were established between the English and the Piscataway. During the civil rights movement between the 1930s and the 1960s, many white Americans in Baltimore reacted violently to African-Americans and were intransigent in their support for segregation. Some white residents of Baltimore engaged in acts of terrorism against African-Americans, including the 1911 lynching of King Johnson in the neighborhood of Brooklyn. White elected officials and citizens made life difficult for African-Americans by engaging in various forms of discrimination. However, some anti-racist white liberals and progressives joined with African-American activists. White Communists were among the most vocal white supporters of the civil rights movement. The largely white Baltimore Committee for Political Freedom was created due to fears that Baltimore police were planning to assassinate Black Panther Party leaders in Baltimore, with Reverend Chester Wickwire and the sociologist Peter H. Rossi playing a prominent role. Due to demographic and socioeconomic changes, Baltimore's urban core is slowly becoming more white and more affluent. Young urban professionals have been attracted to the city, echoing patterns of gentrification that have occurred across many major American cities in recent decades. As the city's white population has increased and the rate of poverty has dropped, income and property values have been rising. The effects of gentrification and a growing white population have been felt the most in the historically black working-class neighborhoods of East Baltimore and to a lesser extent in the neighborhoods of North Central Baltimore. The proximity of these neighborhoods to the Johns Hopkins Hospital has been a major factor in the gentrification and increasing white population of East Baltimore's neighborhoods. According to linguists, the "hon" accent that is popularized in the media as being spoken by Baltimoreans is particular to Baltimore's white working-class. White working-class families who migrated out of Baltimore city into Baltimore County and Carroll County along the Maryland Route 140 and Maryland Route 26 corridors brought local pronunciations with them, creating colloquialisms that make up the Baltimore accent, cementing the image of "Bawlmerese" as the "Baltimore accent". This white working-class dialect is not the only "Baltimore accent", as Black Baltimoreans have their own unique accent.

Men were warned against wearing only shorts and singlets. As a small country with larger neighbours, Qatar seeks to project influence and protect its state and ruling dynasty. The history of Qatar's alliances provides insight into the basis of their policy. Between 1760 and 1971, Qatar sought formal protection from the high transitory powers of the Ottomans, British, the Al-Khalifas from Bahrain, the Arabians, and the Wahhabis from Saudi Arabia. Qatar's rising international profile and active role in international affairs has led some analysts to identify it as a middle power. Qatar was an early member of OPEC and a founding member of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC). It is a member of the Arab League. The country has not accepted compulsory International Court of Justice jurisdiction. Qatar also has bilateral relationships with a variety of foreign powers. Qatar is a strategic ally of China, with relationship between the two countries growing stronger. It also hosts the Al Udeid Air Base, a joint U.S.-British base, which acts as the hub for all American and British air operations in the Persian Gulf. It has allowed American and British forces to use an air base to send supplies to Iraq and Afghanistan. According to leaked documents published in "The New York Times", Qatar's record of counter-terrorism efforts was the "worst in the region". The cable suggested that Qatar's security service was "hesitant to act against known terrorists out of concern for appearing to be aligned with the U.S. and provoking reprisals". Qatar has mixed relations with its neighbours in the Persian Gulf region. Qatar signed a defence co-operation agreement with Iran, with whom it shares the largest single non-associated gas field in the world. It was the second nation, the first being France, to have publicly announced its recognition of the Libyan opposition's National Transitional Council as the legitimate government of Libya amidst the 2011 Libyan civil war. In 2014, Qatar's relations with Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates came to a boiling point over Qatar's support for the Muslim Brotherhood and reportedly funding extremist groups in Syria. This culminated in the three aforementioned countries withdrawing their ambassadors from Qatar in March 2014. Qatar was also involved in the CIA-led Timber Sycamore covert operation to train and arm Syrian rebels. In recent years, Qatar has been using Islamist militants in a number of countries including Egypt, Syria, Libya, Somalia and Mali to further its foreign policy. Courting Islamists from the Muslim Brotherhood to Salafist groups has served as a power amplifier for the country, as it believes since the beginning of the Arab Spring that these groups represented the wave of the future.

In Bob Steele’s "Cavalry" (1936), Buster had the role of Steele’s wagon boss sidekick, as well as Abraham Lincoln. Buster was sidekick to Tom Keene in "Drums of Destiny" (1937), to Bob Steele in "Feud of the Range" (1939) and to Jack Randall in "Covered Wagon Trails" (1940). Buster appeared in "Westward Ho" as "Henchman Coffee" in 1942. One of Buster's best roles was as the protector of the female lead "Belle Blaine" in "Trail of Terror" (1943) with Dave O’Brien and James Newill. In other film genres, Buster had minor roles in "Bus Stop", a 1956 film, and the 1953 "It Came from Outer Space". Buster appeared in character for national billboard campaigns, including Studebaker and the then-popular Eastside Beer. Two of his last roles were Buster's rare appearances in television westerns, "Gene Autry: Outlaw Warning" in 1954, and "Buffalo Bill, Jr.: Black Ghost" in 1955. Buster’s son, John L. Buster, acted in two mid-1940s Buster Crabbe westerns produced by PRC. He played henchman Steve in "Fighting Bill Carson" (1945), and sang and played guitar in "Prairie Badmen" (1946).

Cibuco River The Cibuco River () is a river of Vega Baja, Puerto Rico. Part of the river goes through Vega Alta and Corozal municipalities. It is 23.75 miles long. Cibuco River meets Indio River. The river flooded up to 15 feet during Hurricane Maria in some neighborhoods and as late as 2019, the river floods when rains are heavy.

This potent concentration of Dominicans all in one place allowed them to bring in their own culture while they assimilated into the melting pot of cultures found in New York City. Merengue is one example of the many pieces of Dominican culture brought during this period of immigration, which was a key element to the creation of Merenhouse. In order to understand this style of music, it is important to look at the genres that influenced this new style, most importantly merengue. Merengue is the national music and dance of the Dominican Republic. It is in a fast 2/4 beat that has African, Creole, and European origins that emerged during the early 20th Century. Merengue music has varying styles and a very distinct rhythm, which makes it distinct from any other particular genre of music. During its beginnings it included call-and-response vocals, a Spanish guitar, and a box lamellophone called the Congolese marimbula. These instruments were replaced with the acoustic guitar, bass, German accordion, the tambora (a West African two headed drum), and a güira, which is a metal scraper. In the 1930s, Merengue became modernized and became the national symbol of the Dominican Republic. Orchestras played for the middle class and social elite dancehall. The sound became that of a more generic Latin band. This included instrument replacement for the piano, staple percussion and bass. The merengue in which merenhouse is based upon developed in the 1980s and 1990s, and resulted from Juan Luis Guerra’s incorporation of more modern sounding arrangements and socially relevant themes. He was also influenced by pop and jazz music. Genres that were popular during the 1990s in New York City greatly influenced Dominican Americans to create Merenhouse/Merenrap: "Reggae" Reggae known as “the heartbeat of Jamaica.” Instruments include the snare, bass drums, keyboards, and guitars. When many think of reggae, they first think of the Rastafarian religion, which was created during the 1930s. Many associate Rastas and reggae because of Bob Marley, the Jamaican Icon. "Rap/Hip-Hop" The beginnings of hip hop music/rap can be traced back to the Bronx, NY in the 1960s and 1970s where wall graffiti started to gain popularity with the prevalence of street gangs. The musical style rap was the result of multiple influences including the Jamaican style of music called “toasting” and several different styles of Deejaying.

The Buddhist ethical concept of Karma gives people control over their choice of actions, words and thoughts. By choosing to deviate from harmful actions will allow people to avoid the potential cause of suffering in the future, synonymous with a cause and effect cycle. Greater personal responsibility is achieved through Karma whereby evoking ownership over negative and positive actions and reflecting on the consequences. This ethic fosters a more integrated and less irritable or stressful behaviour within businesses that limits the way of blaming others for personal failures rather than on oneself. For example, if managers are generous towards their suppliers or have donated towards charity, it is expected that there will be an eventual positive effect for the business. Zen refers to recognising the meaning of life without being influenced by logic or language and embodies the attainment of enlightenment. The ethics surrounding Zen emulate the Buddhist ethics of precepts, compassion and monastic codes. Motivation towards healthy detachment in a business environment draws on the mindfulness of Zen to free people from suffering at work. This reduces work related stress and anxiety as it encourages people to alter their psychological stance to become more accepting and open minded. This is seen in the way businesses eliminate clusters that do not add value to the business through removing people, processes or objects that would otherwise cause such stress . Buddhism defines that two qualities must develop simultaneously and equally: compassion (karuna) and wisdom (panna). The ethical conduct of perceiving one another as filial figures enables a model of compassion and kinship, which when applied to the workplace environment builds encouragement and motivation towards achieving goals. This extends to how the Dalai Lama said that it is through the interconnectedness coalesced with the interdependence of people and objects that have fabricated the way the world lives. In business, this ethic infers that acknowledgement of the work by different people such as the cleaner, employer or consumer, operates in an interconnected matter and produces the best work. This continues in the way tasks are fulfilled with respect and through a teamwork to generate better outcomes and also corresponds with the Buddhist ethical behaviour. In Japan, there is an understanding that each individual phenomenon has their own soul or spirit (numen) that is affiliated with other unique numens in the world. It is known that in an environment where definite norms exist, it is a “transcendental normative environment” and is supported by Buddhism (Dunfee, 1961). Work has its own numen in which Japanese people associate this with a greater life force, a reflection of ethics. It is recognised that becoming an expert in a field often infers reaching a godlike (kami) stage.

Frank Colón Frank Colón (born October 13, 1951) is an American musician and martial artist of Puerto Rican descent. Born in Washington, D.C., Colón moved from there to Puerto Rico at the age of five. His musical instruction began at age eleven, beginning with classical piano lessons, under the guidance of Angelina Figueroa and Rafael Figueroa. He also studied Brazilian percussion, guitar, electric bass, and trap drums. He was active in municipal and collegiate sports, martial arts, and amateur theater, and worked with various local pop music groups. In 1970, he moved back to Washington, D.C. to attend college at American University, where he majored in Political Science. During this time, his musical orientation changed from melodic instruments to percussion. Finishing his university requirements, he turned full-time to music. In 1976, Colón moved to New York City to work with the drummer Julito Collazo. There he became proficient at playing the Batá drums. Colón is a practitioner of capoeira, and a black belt instructors in the Israeli self-defense system Krav-Maga, certified by the Wingate Institute of Israel and Krav-Maga International, Inc.

Myanmar Economic Corporation The Myanmar Economic Corporation (; abbreviated MEC) is one of the two major conglomerates and holding companies operated by the Burmese military. Founded in 1997 by Lt General Tin Hla to establish profitable heavy industries that can provide the Burmese military access to supplies of important materials (e.g. cement and rubber), MEC's operations are shrouded in secrecy. MEC is owned by the Burmese military, and is influenced by senior Tatmadaw leaders. Revenues generated from MEC have strengthened the Burmese military's autonomy from civilian oversight, and has contributed to the military's financial operations in "a wide array of international human rights and humanitarian law violations." In 2009, MEC had 21 factories, including 4 steel plants, a bank, a cement plant and an insurance monopoly. Its headquarters are located on Ahlon Road in Yangon's Ahlon Township. MEC has remained on the United States' list of sanctioned companies due to its affiliation to the Burmese military. MEC also operates Innwa Bank, one of Burma's few banking chains. MEC is operated under the Ministry of Defence's Directorate of Defence Procurement (DPP), with its private shares exclusively owned by active-duty military personnel. The corporation's capital was established through revenues generated from the public auctioning of state-owned enterprises throughout the 1990s. Through joint ventures with foreign companies and mergers with smaller companies, MEC has positioned itself as one of Burma's largest corporations. In 2000, MEC launched Cybermec Information Technology Center, an IT venture. Along with Union of Myanmar Economic Holdings (UMEHL), MEC is widely observed to generate most of the Burmese military's operating revenue, which are not held accountable to the Burmese parliament, the Pyidaungsu Hluttaw. The former Vice-President of Burma, Tin Aung Myint Oo, is a former Myanmar Economic Corporation chairman.

Witchcraft (Book of Love song) "Witchcraft" is the seventh single released by the American synthpop band Book of Love. The song was the third, and final single from the band's second album "Lullaby", and was released on July 15, 1989. "Witchcraft" was the only single from the album "Lullaby" that failed to make the "Billboard" charts. The track samples the classic 60s TV series "Bewitched", and also chants the names of the witches/characters from the show..."Enchantra, Endora, Tabitha, Esmerelda, Clara, Hagatha". The song features quirky deadpan rap-style vocals from Susan Ottaviano, Jade Lee, and Lauren Roselli, with a Shakespeare-inspired incanting of ingredients for brewing a love potion. Remixes on the 12" single include samples from the track "Let's All Chant" by Michael Zager Band. The B-side "Enchantra" is a completely different composition, aside from the fact that it uses the chant of "Bewitched" character names from "Witchcraft". The cover art of the 12" was done by band members Lauren Roselli and Jade Lee. It consists of a picture of a Play-Doh "queen" (done by Lauren Roselli), with refrigerator magnet lettering of the band's name and song title. Female names included as part of the back cover artwork (Enchantra, Hagatha, Clara, Endora, and Esmeralda) come from the song's chorus. The witches named in the song's chorus are all named as a part of the back cover art except Tabitha. The cover sleeve was featured in the 2011 book "Put The Needle On The Record" by Matthew Chojnacki, which celebrated the vinyl sleeves of records from the 1980s. During the band's "Lullaby Tour" in 1989, when performing "Witchcraft", the band donned witches' hats, making it a fan favorite of the band's live shows. "Enchantra" has been used as the intro track while the band takes to the stage during Book of Love's 2013 shows. Side A: Side B: "Witchcraft" written by Theodore Ottaviano. "Enchantra" written by Jade Lee and Ted Ottaviano. All instruments arranged, programmed, and performed by Book of Love. 12" sleeve credits Side A dead wax says: "Miss Lucy’s in Heaven 4-26-89" "—" denotes that song failed to chart " * " denotes that version is available as digital download

Eddie Prévost Eddie Prévost (Edwin John) (born Hitchin, Hertfordshire, England, 22 June 1942) is an English percussionist noted for founding and participating in the AMM free improvisation group. Of Huguenot heritage, Prévost's silk weaving ancestors moved to Spitalfields in the late 17th century. Brought up by single parent mother (Lilian Elizabeth) in war-damaged London Borough of Bermondsey. He won a state scholarship to Addey and Stanhope Grammar School, Deptford, London, where to-be drummers Trevor Tomkins and Jon Hiseman also studied. Music tuition, however, was limited to singing and general classical music appreciation. Enrolled in the Boy Scouts Association (19th Bermondsey Troop) to join marching band. As a teenager began to get involved with the emerging youth culture music; skiffle, before being introduced to a big jazz record collection of a school friend with rich parents. With a bonus from the florist, for whom Prévost worked part-time after school, purchased his first snare drum from the famed Len Hunt drum shop in Archer Street (part of London's theatre land). After leaving school at sixteen Prévost was employed in various clerical positions whilst continuing his musical interests. Although, by now immersed in the music of bebop, his playing technique was insufficient for purpose. New Orleans style jazz ('trad') offered scope for his growing musical prowess. He played in various bands mostly in the East End of London. It was during a tenure with one of these bands he met trumpeter David Ware, who also shared a passion for the hard-bop jazz music. In their early twenties they later formed a modern jazz quintet which ultimately included Lou Gare, who had recently moved to London from Rugby and was a student at Ealing College of Art and a member of the Mike Westbrook Jazz Orchestra. AMM was co-founded in 1965 by Lou Gare, Eddie Prévost and Keith Rowe. They were shortly joined by Lawrence Sheaff. All had a jazz background. They were, however, soon augmented by composer Cornelius Cardew. Thereafter, Cardew, Gare, Prévost and Rowe remained as basis of the ensemble until the group fractured in 1972. Other more formally trained musicians were to enter the ranks of AMM after Cardew's departure. Those to make significant contributions were cellist Rohan de Saram and, in particular, pianist John Tilbury.

Doruchów witch trial The Doruchów witch trial was a witch trial which took place in the village of Doruchów in Poland in the 18th century. It was the last mass trial of sorcery and witchcraft in the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth. The trial allegedly resulted in the execution of 14 women in 1775, and led to the ban on witch burning in Poland. However, a reassessment of the original documentation places the trial in 1783, with 6 victims, and having no effect on any of the laws concerning witch burning. According to the older historians who believed the first version of the event, in 1775, the inhabitants in the village of Doruchów asked for the authorities in the nearby city of Grabów nad Prosną to halt the investigation of sorcery, which had been initiated in the village. Previously, in 1768, the Polish Sejm (Parliament) had banned local magistrates from handling witchcraft cases; so, the trial was conducted by the court of Grabów, which judged 14 people guilty of witchcraft and sentenced them to death. This trial allegedly led to the Polish government to ban torture and witch trials in 1776. Still according to that version, the reason for the accusations and trial was the illness of a local nobleman's wife. Women from the village were accused of having caused the noblewoman's sickness by use of magic. Fourteen women were said to have been arrested, of whom three supposedly died of the torture and eleven were burned at the stake. Modern Polish historians – such as Janusz Tazbir — have, however, questioned whether the Doruchów witch trial really took place in 1775, whether it happened as described, and whether it had the claimed effect on the law. Tazbir points out that the most detailed account of this event was given by early-19th-century writer Konstanty Majeranowski, who has been found by later historians to have authored several historical hoaxes. Tazbir notes that the existing primary sources can prove that only six – not fourteen – women, were sentenced to death, and it is not even clear whether they were actually executed. Further, the documents examined by Tazbir indicate that the trial took place not in 1775, but later, in 1783 or shortly before – in any case, after 1776, because it has been recorded that the judges who conducted this trial were punished for pronouncing the sentence, in defiance of the law abolishing witch trials, which had been issued in that year.

Harvey (1996 film) Harvey is a 1996 American made-for-television fantasy-comedy film and a remake of the 1950 classic film (starring James Stewart) based on Mary Chase's 1944 play of the same name. The television adaptation was directed by George Schaefer (his final film project) and starred Harry Anderson (as the eccentric Elwood P. Dowd), Leslie Nielsen, and Swoosie Kurtz. Though it was filmed in 1996, the film sat on the shelf until July 18, 1999, when it was finally broadcast by CBS, two years after Schaefer's death. Anderson stars as Elwood P. Dowd, a lovable eccentric who claims to have a six-foot invisible rabbit named Harvey as his best friend. Although that amuses people, Elwood's sister Veta (Kurtz) wants him committed to an asylum. Chumley (Nielsen), the operator of the facility, and several of his employees end up believing in Elwood and that forces them to make their own decisions about his future. The film was shot in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.

Joe Dickinson Joe Dickinson (born July 17, 1956) is an American football coach and former player. Most notably, he served as the offensive coordinator at the University of Northern Illinois from 1991 to 1995, and the University of Oklahoma in 1998. Dickinson also was an assistant coach at the University of Tulsa, Marshall University, Tulane University and the University of Central Oklahoma. Dickinson is currently an NFL quarterback consultant for the Buffalo Bills and is the director of coaching and lead quarterback instructor for DeBartolo Sports University, conducting both private and group training events across the United States. Dickinson attended Wayne High School in Wayne, Oklahoma, and was a four-sport standout. Upon graduation he attended East Central University in Ada, Oklahoma, and was a three-year letter winner as quarterback of their football team. Dickinson began his coaching career as an assistant for Tecumseh High School (1978–80), as well as Edmond High School (1981–82). He used that experience to gain a head coaching position in 1983, at one of the premier football programs in Oklahoma, Davis High School. After concluding one full season, Dickinson became a graduate assistant for the University of Oklahoma (1983–85), where he was part of the 1985 Sooner National Championship team coached by Barry Switzer. During these years at Oklahoma, Dickinson was able to coach and work with Pro Football Hall of Fame quarterback Troy Aikman. From 1986–1989, Dickinson would hold the position of running backs coach for the University of Tulsa before leaving to become the offensive coordinator for Marshall University in 1990. Under his direction, Marshall scored 42 or more points in four of their contests. At the conclusion of the season, Dickinson took his play-calling skills to Northern Illinois University where he served as offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach from 1991 to 1995. In 1993, he helped oversee the nation's leading rusher, LeShon Johnson, who carried for 1,976 yards on 327 carries while finishing 6th in the Heisman voting. In 1996, Dickinson moved back to his native Oklahoma for a second stint with the Sooners coaching staff. He started as the running backs coach from 1996 to 1997, where he coached RB De'mond Parker who finished with 2,327 rushing yards and 16 touchdowns in two seasons. Dickinson would be promoted to offensive coordinator for the 1998 season. That year, he helped the Sooners to their best finish since 1995, but would leave the program with the arrival of Bob Stoops in 1999. Dickinson accepted a position with Tulane University to be their running backs coach.

Dodge Aspen The Dodge Aspen, which was produced during the 1976 to the 1980 model years, was a compact car, along with its then-concurrent Plymouth branded counterpart, the Volaré (Spanish for "I will fly away" or "I will blow away", Italian for "to fly"), which was launched as a four-door wagon, a four-door sedan and a two-door coupe. By the end of their production run, the Aspen and Volaré would be considered intermediate cars. The Dodge Aspen and Plymouth Volaré were introduced during the fall of 1975 as 1976 models, and were collectively named Motor Trend's "Car of the Year" for 1976. They were the successors to the A-body — Dodge Dart and Plymouth Valiant/Plymouth Duster, which concurrently were sold along with Aspen and Volaré during the early part of the 1976 model year until A-body models were discontinued. Well-publicized quality problems hampered sales soon after their introduction, and Chrysler discontinued the model names after the 1980 model year. The vehicle was wind-tunnel tested to be aerodynamically sound in its fuel conservation potential as the complete aerodynamics development program included a wide range studies from drag reduction to crosswind stability, wind noise and ventilation performance. The effects of this testing resulted in softened front end contours, removal of drip troughs and helped shaped internal air flow ducting. Body engineering in the Aspen was executed using computer technology; unit body engineering was conducted by use of clear plastic stress models that showed up stress points before any sheet metal was formed. Weight reduction to provide maximum fuel economy was achieved through use of thinner glass, lighter weight side door beams and HSLA brackets and reinforcements that were four times as strong as conventional mild steel. A reduced number of stampings resulted in better panel fits and fewer welds. The Aspen had improved visibility and compared with other Dodge compacts, the Aspen provided a total glass area increase of 25% on two-door models and 33% on sedans. Wheel alignment adjustments such as caster and camber could be made by removing plates over the wheel housings. The new isolated transverse suspension system was a substantial departure from the longitudinal torsion bars Chrysler had introduced in 1957 and used on all models since that year, until the release of the F-bodies. The transverse (side-to-side) bars were not as geometrically favorable, but saved space and weight. In addition, the new front suspension system was touted as giving a "big car ride" as the suspension had a low, or softer, fore and aft compliance which allowed the wheel to move rearward instead of straight up and down when the tire encountered an object, dampening the blow and rolling with the condition of the road.

Still, any author who has come up with the beautifully silly plan of melding a kung-fu epic with an Iraq-war satire and a Mad Max adventure has to be worth keeping an eye on." Ed King was again somewhat mixed in his review for "The Daily Telegraph" saying "but amid the chapter-long digressions and manic proliferation of characters, the narrative threatens to collapse under the weight of its own excess. Words clearly come easily to Harkaway (his father is John le Carré; perhaps it runs in the family) but he tends to lose sight of the plot and his duty to the reader. Nevertheless, "The Gone-Away World" is an impressive feat of imagination and a wildly exuberant ride." "The Gone-Away World" was nominated in 2009 for a Locus Award for Best First Novel and a BSFA Award for Best Novel. Thomas Taylour, 3rd Marquess of Headfort Thomas Taylour, 3rd Marquess of Headfort KP PC (I) (1 November 1822 – 22 July 1894) was an Irish peer, styled Lord Kenlis until 1829 and Earl of Bective from 1829 to 1870. He was High Sheriff of Meath in 1844, of Cavan in 1846, and of Westmorland in 1853. From 1852 to 1853, he was State Steward to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland. In 1854, Bective succeeded his father-in-law as Member of Parliament for Westmorland, sitting as a Conservative. He succeeded his father as Marquess of Headfort in 1870. He also inherited his father's title of Baron Kenlis, in the Peerage of the United Kingdom, and so gained a seat in the House of Lords; his son Thomas replaced him in the House of Commons for Westmorland. He was an Irish Freemason, having been initiated in Lodge No 244 (Kells, Ireland), and served as the Provincial Grand Master of Meath from 1888 until his death and burial at Virginia, County Cavan in 1894. He was also an English Freemason and belonged to a number of Masonic Orders. In particular, he served as Grand Sovereign (the Head of the Order) of the Masonic and Military Order of the Red Cross of Constantine from 1866 until 1874. On 20 July 1842, he married Amelia Thompson, daughter of William Thompson. They had seven children: His wife Amelia died on 4 December 1864. On 29 November 1875, he married again, to Emily Constantia Thynne, daughter of Rev. Lord John Thynne and granddaughter of Thomas Thynne, 2nd Marquess of Bath.

The school is opening 7:30 am until 2:30 from Monday to Friday. In 2006 the college held its first graduation ceremony on the school premises, on 12 August 2006. The students collected their certificate from the chairman and managing director of the college, Ustaz Kabiru Sani Salihu Ayagi, on behalf of the Ministry of Education, Kano State. Now most of the students who have graduated from college were admitted into higher schools and universities throughout the country. Some of them are studying at other international universities like Dubai, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Malaysia, Sudan, Niger, Bahrain, and many more. Sahatu has produced many students who have memorised Qur'an; most of them are participated in local government qura'nic competition (Musabaqa), state, federal and some of them are participated in international Qur'anic competition (Musabaqa). In 2006 one Sahatussibyan student participated in worldwide Musabaqa, Malama Khadija Musa, where represented Nigeria on 40 Hizb with Tafsir. Some awards that Sahatu received from government and organizations: The school is open every Saturday until Thursday from 7:00 am to 10:00 pm. The school has three sections: Baner Hill Baner Hill is a hill that separates two suburbs of Pune, Pashan and Baner. The hill is the third highest point within the city limits, with an elevation of 2224 ft., surpassed by the Vetal Hill. There is a temple located in the northern foot of the hill. One can view the whole of baner on one side and the pashan area from the other. The place is actually the home for a plantation drive that has been taken up enthusiastically by the locals, helped by numerous volunteers. One can see people coming up early in the morning every Sunday and working in groups to make the place greener. Baner hill is surrounded by two suburbs of Pune, Pashan and Baner. Most of its area is in Baner, so it is commonly known as Baner Hill. The hillock runs East-West. It has a spur which is locally known as the Pashan Hill which has an elevation of 2100 ft. The temperature here is 1 to 2 degrees cooler than the temperature in the main city. Rest of the area shares almost same climatic conditions as that of Pune. Baner hill is famous for trekking in people nearby. There are 4 routes which are accessible.

In some cases the usage of certain types of materials to produce cash coins are only more recently discovered due to the lack of historical records mentioning them. For example, it has only been since more recent times that the fact that the Song dynasty had attempted to produce lead cash coins been discovered. Because of this almost no Chinese coin catalogues list their existence while they have mentioned in works such as the "Meng Guohua: Guilin Faxian Qian Xi Hejin Qian. Zhongguo Qianbi No. 3. 1994 (Vol. 46.)" which deal with the topic. Lead cash coins have only been produced at a few times in the monetary history of china, mainly during the Five dynasties and Ten kingdoms period. Because of how soft lead is, most lead cash coins that are found today tend to be very worn. This table includes is what is generally known to have been the case today, but as future archaeological research might probably reveal that other periods of Chinese history might used alternative materials to produce cash coins, at least in locally in some areas.

Boat No. 1 and its occupants were picked up by the sometime shortly after 4:10 am, being the second "Titanic" lifeboat to reach the rescue ship. The boat's occupants were subsequently photographed as a group on the "Carpathia". The boat was hoisted aboard the "Carpathia" along with other "Titanic" lifeboats and brought to New York. One of the davits from which Boat 1 was lowered remains upright on the "Titanic"s wreck in relatively good condition. Due to rumors that Sir Cosmo had bribed the crew in his boat not to rescue people left in the water after the ship went down, some New York press reports dubbed Boat 1 the "Money Boat". The appearance of Cosmo and Lucy Duff Gordon as witnesses at the British investigation into the disaster drew the largest crowds seen during the inquiry. According to the British Inquiry testimony of crew member Charles Hendrickson, he had proposed returning to rescue survivors after the "Titanic" sank, but "the women objected." Consequently, he claimed, the boat did not go back to pick up swimmers, although he admitted there was "plenty of room for another dozen". It was also claimed during the course of the inquiry by crewman George Symons and others that it was Lucy Duff Gordon who expressed concern that the lifeboat might be swamped if it returned. She denied the charge and her testimony was supported by other crewmembers who revealed they had not heard her objection nor any proposal to turn back. According to the testimony of Robert Pusey, a conversation concerning money occurred in the boat at about 3 a.m., nearly an hour after the "Titanic" sank. He claimed the discussion was prompted by a private comment Lucy Duff Gordon made to Mabel Francatelli: "There is your beautiful nightdress gone." Overhearing the exchange, Pusey replied, "Never mind, you have saved your lives," afterwards complaining that he and the other sailors had not only lost everything but their pay had stopped from the time the ship went down; to which Cosmo Duff Gordon responded, "I will give you a fiver each to start a new kit." On 16 April, the day after their rescue by the "Carpathia", each Boat 1 crew member received a £5 cheque from Cosmo Duff Gordon. The British inquiry issued a report after reviewing the evidence of their probe, which included sworn testimony from every member of Boat 1's crew as well as an affidavit from Mabel Francatelli.

Bruce Haslingden Edward Bruce Haslingden (March 1923 – 17 April 2007) was an Australian cross country skier who competed in the 1950s. He finished 74th in the 18 km event at the 1952 Winter Olympics in Oslo. Haslingden also competed in the 50 km event at those same games, but did not finish. Together with Cedric Sloane, as part of Australia's first Winter Olympics team, they were the first Australians to compete at the Winter Olympics in the sport of cross country skiing. Haslingden's place at the Olympics was secured by 'qualifying' in a selection trial at Perisher Valley. Haslingden was a grazier in the Cooma region of New South Wales who trained for the event on his farm. He later retired to Merimbula, New South Wales. Haslingden died on 17 April 2007 from a staphylococcus infection acquired on his farm.

The group faces many tough decisions, but they all know the right way to go in the end. The movie begins in Manhattan, set two years after the first movie, where the Cheetah Girls have just completed their junior year and are performing at a Graduation Party for the Manhattan Magnet's Class of 2006 ("The Party's Just Begun"). Later while having a sleep-over at Galleria (Raven-Symoné)'s, Chanel (Adrienne Bailon) tells the girls that her mother, Juanita (Lori Anne Alter), is planning a trip to Barcelona, Spain, where they will be visiting Luc (Abel Folk), Juanita's boyfriend. Chanel is bummed and does not want to see Luc while the other girls are upset about being separated for the summer when Aquanette (Kiely Williams) sees a shooting star and the girls make a wish together - to go to Spain with Chanel. At that very moment, one of the girl's magazines flips pages until it comes across an ad for a Barcelona music festival. Galleria enters the Cheetah Girls and the next day, her mother Dorethea (Lynn Whitfield), Juanita, and the Cheetah Girls all travel to Spain. When the girls arrive in Barcelona, they do some shopping before resting in a Cafe. Soon they hear a guitar playing and meet Angel (Peter Vives), a mysterious guitar player who accompanies them around Barcelona as they sing to the entire city, and he becomes Galleria's love interest ("Strut"). The next day the girls audition for the festival and earn a spot ("Cheetah Sisters (Barcelona Mix)"). The next day at breakfast, they meet Joaquin (Golan Yosef), a Count, Luc's godson, and a handsome dancer who becomes a love interest for Dorinda (Sabrina Bryan). The next day after Dorinda finds out Joaquin is a dancer, she goes to his studio, where he teaches her tango ("Dance With Me"). That night Joaquin takes the Cheetahs to the Dancing Cat, a local Spanish night club where all the new artists perform their songs ("Why Wait")("A La Nanita Nana"). There they meet Spanish pop artist Marisol (Belinda), who will also compete in the Music Festival, and her manager/mother, Lola (Kim Manning), who plans a scheme to break up the Cheetah Girls, as they pose a threat to her daughter's chances in the competition, and she starts making Marisol distract Chanel from The Cheetah Girls.

Tortilla Price Stabilization Pact The Tortilla Price Stabilization Pact was an agreement between the Mexican Federal Government, headed by President Felipe Calderón, and several tortilla producing companies in Mexico to limit the volatility of price in tortillas in early 2007. The production of maize in US was subsidised, so US sold these maize to Mexico and stabilized the price of maize. Although the maize price in US was stabilized, but the production of maize in Mexico was killed. Later, US farmers use maize to produce biofuel, cause a rapid rising of price of maize. The international price of corn (maize) had been rising dramatically throughout 2006, leading to the inflation of tortilla prices in the first month of Calderón's term. Because tortillas are the main food product consumed by Mexico's poorest people, national concern over the rising prices immediately generated political pressures for Calderón's administration. President Calderón opted for using price ceilings for tortillas that protect local producers of corn. This price control came in the form of a "Tortilla Price Stabilization Pact" between the government and many of the main tortilla producing companies, including Grupo Maseca and Bimbo, to put a price ceiling at MXN 8.50 per kilogram of tortilla. The idea of the agreement is that having these producers ceiling their prices would incentive the market to lower the prices nationally. The Pact has been heavily criticized by both the right and the left. Critics argue that the Pact was both non-binding and a "de facto" acceptance of a 30% increase in the price of that product (from MXN 5.95 to 8.50 per kilogram). Many "tortillerías" ignored the agreement, leading to price increases in well in excess of the 8.50 pesos. Government opposition see this as an indication of the failure to protect the economy of poor consumers. In response to this, PROFECO, the government consumer protection agency, has also threatened with jail those tortilla producers who charge "excessive" prices. However, some major supermarkets such as Soriana, or Comercial Mexicana sell their tortillas at a lower price than the one in the agreement, and even 14% lower than the original price, reaching even MXN 5.10 per kilogram. That is interpreted by liberals as evidence that price controls, and the Tortilla Price Stabilization Pact, were unnecessary and potentially harmful for the market. Three months after the pact was signed, the Secretariat of Economy has informed that the price of tortillas was reduced in most of the country's 53 largest cities.

The brief judgment made a number of observations about section 44 of the Constitution When Wood applied for a passport some months after entering parliament, it transpired that while he was a long-term resident of Australia, he was a citizen of the United Kingdom and had only obtained Australian citizenship on 3 February 1988. The High Court unanimously determined on 12 May 1988 that as he was not an Australian citizen prior to 3 February 1988, he was not entitled to be nominated for election as a senator case and therefore had never been validly elected. The decision was based on the explicit requirement in the "Commonwealth Electoral Act 1918", that a candidate must be an Australian citizen. The High Court followed "Vardon v O'Loghlin", as to the consequence of the void election. Wood's presence in the Senate did not invalidate the proceedings of the Senate. In this case they held that the vacancy could be filled by the further counting or recounting of the ballot papers. The High Court expressly declined to rule on the question of whether being a dual citizen of the United Kingdom would also disqualify a candidate from election. The recount of the ballot resulted in the election in his place of Irina Dunn, who had been second on the ticket of the NDP. Further controversy occurred when the NDP asked Dunn to resign so that Wood could reclaim his seat, following his assumption of Australian citizenship in 1988. Dunn refused, resulting in her expulsion from the party, and she remained in parliament as an independent until her defeat in the 1990 election. Wood contested that election as the first-ranked candidate for the Nuclear Disarmament Party in New South Wales, polling just over 1 per cent of the vote - more than his former running-mate Dunn, but nowhere near enough to be competitive for a Senate spot. In 1988 Wood was unsuccessful as the Nuclear Disarmament Party candidate at the NSW 1988 North Shore by-election. Wood then moved to Victoria and joined the Australian Democrats in 1990. Internal disagreements within the Australian Democrats resulted in the departure of Victorian Senator Janet Powell from the party leadership in August 1991, and she resigned from the party altogether in 1992, contesting the 1993 Senate election under her own party banner, the Janet Powell Independents' Network. Wood became the Democrats' lead candidate for the Victorian Senate in the 1993 federal election. He polled 3.93 per cent of the vote, but preferences were unable to get him elected. Wood campaigned on various peace and justice issues throughout his life. Wood was arrested and jailed in 1972 for refusing to be conscripted to fight in the Vietnam War.

These sessions include completion of diet histories and tracking of weight gain, assessment and subsequent reduction of harmful health behaviors such as alcohol and drug use, training in identification of pregnancy complications, and coordination of help-seeking from nurses and physicians. The goal of postnatal visits is to improve the child's physical and emotional care and promote parent–child attachment. These sessions include training in identification and management of child illness, facilitation of understanding child communicative signals, and enhancement of parent–child interactions that safely promote cognitive and emotional development. NFP nurses must be registered nurses with a bachelor's degree in nursing. NFP nurse training consists of three phases. First, there is an orientation unit, which includes 40 hours of self-study. Second, there is an in-person education/experiential practice unit, which takes place in 25 hours over 2–4 days in Denver, CO. Finally, there is a long-distance education unit, with around 10 hours of team-based, supervisor-led professional development modules. “Nurse supervisors provide nurse home visitors clinical supervision with reflection, demonstrate integration of the theories, and facilitate professional development essential to the nurse home visitor role through specific supervisory activities, including one-to-one clinical supervision, case conferences, team meetings, and field supervision.” NFP Nurse Supervisors must be registered nurses with a bachelor's degree in nursing, and it is preferred that they also have a master's degree in nursing. In addition to the training completed by all nurses, supervisors are required to complete four introductory supervisor-education sessions, including two in-person sessions. Additionally, they attend a three-day, 20-hour supervisor education and refresher in Denver annually. Findings in Relation to Intervention Goals "Improve Prenatal Outcomes" "Improve Child Health and Development" "Improve Family’s Economic Self-Sufficiency and Future Planning" Cost/Benefit to Society Every dollar invested in NFP saves $5.70 in future costs for the highest-risk families enrolled, most notably seen in government costs. For example, the increased economic self-sufficiency of enrolled families reduced Medicaid enrollment, leading to an 8.5% reduction in costs. NFP operates in 594 counties across 42 states, as well as in the U.S. Virgin Islands. In the UK the programme is known as the Family Nurse Partnership and has been backed by the NHS to deliver a service to 16,000 of the most disadvantaged new parents in the country.

What makes an environmental art piece successful since it is on a grand scale and you as the viewer walk on to the piece, you are surrounded by the piece, you walk over the piece and you participate with it, so it becomes this full body experience that you have, which is different than you have if you would view just front on a sculpture or in the round in a gallery." Her ceramic work focuses on the creation of assemblages incorporating either the human form or a personification of an object. She makes use of visual symbols which she extracts and extends from the direct observation of an environment including important cultural, architectural or technological representations. Projecting the object into the observers’ psychological space compels observers to “dive in” with their own humanity as an emotive participant in order to unfold the inner narrative of the art. Through this re-living of an inner world of an important period and place a universal moment from the past becomes alive. Borcherding's print work is described as “direct, strongly graphic, sinewy and somewhat raw and rough images with a strong clear component of feeling in the content or depiction”. Borcherding's long studio career in visual arts is complemented with a commitment to art education which she fulfills through printmaking, ceramic and life drawing workshops. She is currently developing a drawing and anatomy curriculum for online education under the moniker “Art Team”. She is also an art professor at Sam Houston State University, where she has been employed since 1993. During the academic year she lives on a working horse and cattle ranch in Texas. Summers are enjoyed in and around Madison, Wisconsin. http://ww2.valdosta.edu/art/galleryschedule12_13.shtml

Geraghty tracked the leader Celestial Halo before taking the lead at the seventh of the eleven hurdles and opened up a three length lead at the last obstacle. In the closing stages Oscar Whisky held off a strong challenge from Thousand Stars to win by a neck, with a gap of ten lengths back to the outsider Salden Licht in third place. Barry Geraghty said: "He was very game. The plan was just to track Peddlers Cross. He came alive down the back, he winged it down there and I was just happy to go with it". On his first appearance of the 2011/2012 National Hunt season, Oscar Whisky was made 5/6 favourite for the Grade II Ascot Hurdle in November, but fell heavily when challenging Overturn for the lead at the last obstacle. In December he was again made odds-on favourite when he contested the Grade II Relkeel Hurdle at Cheltenham. He raced in third place before moving up to take the lead after the penultimate hurdle and won by one and three quarter lengths from Get Me Out of Here. After the race Henderson said "He jumped beautifully all the way, he got racing quite early - I know Barry wanted to hold on a bit longer but I suspect they didn't go a great gallop early. He was racing two out and he's quickened up nicely. That is a good trip for him". On 1 January, over the same course and distance he won again, beating his three opponents "very easily" at odds of 4/6. In his final preparation race for the Cheltenham Festival Oscar Whisky contested a two mile flat race on the synthetic Polytrack surface at Kempton Park Racecourse. The race was run on National Hunt rules and he won very easily from six opponents at odds of 1/16. On 15 March, Oscar Whisky was moved up in distance to contest the World Hurdle over three miles at Cheltenham. He was made the 4/1 second favourite behind Big Buck's, who was attempting to win the race for the fourth consecutive year. He tracked the favourite for much of the race but weakened in the closing stages and finished fifth behind Big Buck's, beaten thirteen lengths by the winner. In April, Oscar Whisky was matched against the 2012 Champion Hurdler Rock On Ruby and the 2011 Triumph Hurdle winner Zarkandar as he attempted to win his second Aintree Hurdle. He tracked the leader Rock On Ruby before taking the lead after the second last.
