Gracixalus guangdongensis

The **Guangdong tree frog** (*Gracixalus guangdongensis*) is a frog.  It lives in China's Guangdong Province and Hunan Province.

The adult male frog is 26.1-34.7 mm long from nose to rear end and the adult female frog is 34.9-35.4 mm long. There is more webbed skin on the back feet than on the front feet. The skin of the frog's back is brown or light brown in color with a darker mark in the shape of the letter Y. The male frog has an organ on its neck for making sounds.

This frog lives in bamboo forests on hills with evergreen and broadleaf trees. People have seen it between 600 and 1600 meters above sea level. Scientists have seen this frog's eggs in water in bamboo plants.

Scientists believe this frog is not in danger of dying out. Some of the places this frog lives are protected parks: Dawuling Nature Reserve, Mangshan Nature Reserve, Nanling Nature Reserve, and Mount Nankun Nature Reserve. However, this frog is still in small danger. Human beings change the places where the frog lives to build roads and farms. Visitors to the parks can bother this frog.

National populism

**National populism** is a term used to refer to a nationalist political ideology that aims to mobilize popular support by emphasizing the strengthening of national identity and the promotion of national interests, often highlighting sovereignty, culture and traditions. It shares similarities with right-wing populism on social issues but its adherents tend to incorporate some economic aspects of left-wing populism, such as economic interventionism and welfarism, with the latter being aimed exclusively at promoting the quality of life of the country's own citizens, taking a welfare chauvinist route.

The term was introduced into political science in the 1970s by the Argentine sociologist Gino Germani to designate the nationalist and populist regimes in Latin America in the 1930s to 1950s, such as Peronism. The term was later reused and popularized by the French political scientist and historian of ideas Pierre-André Taguieff to describe the form of populism represented by the French political party National Rally.

According to Taguieff, national populist groups would be characterized, for example, by a personal appeal to the people launched by a leader, an appeal to the people as a whole against "illegitimate elites", an appeal for change (which implies a purifying break with a supposedly corrupt system, sometimes linked to the requirement of referendums), or a call to "cleanse" the country of supposedly "unassimilated elements" (opposition to immigration).

British political scientists Roger Eatwell and Matthew Goodwin used the term "national populism" to refer to far-right parties and groups that have emerged over the last three decades in Western countries. According to Eatwell and Goodwin, national populism is not a "refuge for racists and people who indulge in an irrational fear of  ‘different’" but rather reflects, in part, people's "deep fears about the way a new era of immigration and ethnic change could lead to the destruction of their group and way of life".

Wat Arun

**Wat Arun Ratchawararam Ratchawaramahawihan** also known as Wat Chaeng, is a Buddhist temple located in Bangkok, Thailand. It is on Thonburi's west bank of the Chao Phraya River. The temple is known for its stunning architecture and exquisite design. The work on the pagoda started during the reign of Rama III (1824–51). The main prang was completed in 1851, after nine years of continued construction.

## History
Wat Arun's story started a long time ago, during the Ayutthaya period. It was previously known as Wat Makok or the Olive Monastery. Later, when King Taksin ruled in the late 1700s, the temple was renovated and given a new name: Wat Chaeng, also known as the Temple of Dawn. The word "Wat Arun" also means "Temple of Dawn." People believe it derives from the Hindu god Aruna, who depicts the sun as it begins to rise.

## Cultural Significance
Wat Arun has great cultural and religious importance for Thai people. It is a Buddhist worship and meditation facility that attracts both believers and visitors. The temple is also a well-known emblem of Bangkok, appearing regularly on postcards, paintings, and other works of art.

## Architecture
The most notable feature is the tall center prang (a Hindu-style tower), which is encircled by four smaller satellite prangs. These towers symbolize Mount Meru, the revered cosmological center of Buddhist, Hindu, and Jain faiths.  The prangs are beautifully embellished with bright porcelain and seashells that were previously used as ballast on ships arriving from China. Visitors can climb steep stairways to the upper platforms of the prangs, which provide panoramic views of the Chao Phraya River and Bangkok.  The temple complex also includes the Ordination Hall (Ubosot), which features stunning frescoes, and the Niramitr Buddha image, a golden Buddha figure.

Gilgit Scouts

The force of **Gilgit Scouts** was continued by Pakistan till 1975 when it was integrated into the Northern Light Infantry of the Pakistan Army. 

## History
In November 1947, under the command of Major William Brown, the Gilgit Scouts staged a rebellion. They overthrew the Governor of Gilgit under the Jammu and Kashmir state. The Muslim element of the State Forces based at Bunji joined the rebels. The Azad Kashmir provisional government took control of the force by sending Colonel Aslam Khan as its commander. The combined force conquered all of Baltistan. That gave rise to the present day Gilgit-Baltistan.

## Antecedents 
The Gilgit Agency was established in 1889. At that time, it was controlled using the Imperial Service Troops provided by the Maharaja of Jammu and Kashmir, placed under the command of the British Political Agent. In 1981, a few contingents of British Indian Troops and 14 British Officers were added.

Piora Oscillation

The **Piora Oscillation** was an unusually cold and wet period that occurred during the Holocene, between around 3900 BC to 3000 BC. It is named after the Val Piora, in the south of Switerland. It can best be seen in the Alps. Glaciers advanced in the Alps, apparently for the first time since the Holocene climatic optimum; the Alpine tree line dropped by 100 meters. In the Middle East, the surface of the Dead Sea rose nearly 100 meters (300&nbsp;feet), then receded to a more usual level. It also triggered the collapse of the Uruk period, through decreased temperatures and increased rainfall, which were believed to contribute to Babylonian and Hebrew flood myths.

## Link to horse domestication 
The Piora Oscillation has also been linked to the domestication of the horse. In Central Asia, a colder climate favored the use of horses: "The horse, since it was so adept at foraging with snow on the ground, tended to replace cattle and sheep." The Piora period seems associated with a period of colder drier air over the Western and Eastern Mediterranean, and may have depressed rainfalls as far afield as the Middle East. It is also associated with a sudden onset of drier weather in the central Sahara.

## Causes 
The cause or causes of the Piora Oscillation are debated. A Greenland ice core, GISP2, shows a sulfate spike and methane trough c. 3250 BCE, suggesting an unusual occurrence &#x2014; either a volcanic eruption or a meteor or an asteroid impact event. Other authorities associate the Piora Oscillation with other comparable events, like the 8.2 kiloyear event, that recur in climate history, as part of a larger 1500-year climate cycle.

It may also be caused by changes in solar activity and orbital parameters.

Urban fantasy

**Urban fantasy** is a subgenre of fantasy that uses supernatural elements in an urban setting. The combination lets the writer create classic fantasy tropes, plot-elements, and unusual characters without having to create of an entire imaginary world.

Urban fantasy became more popular in fiction during the 19th century.  and Anne Rice.

## Characteristics 
Urban fantasy combines imaginary/unrealistic elements of plot, character, theme, or setting with a mostly normal world.Urban fantasy combines normal things and the strange. These strange elements may exist secretly in the world or may happen openly.  Fantastic parts of the story may be magic, paranormal beings, mythic or folk-tale plots, or thematic tropes (such as a quest, or a battle of good and evil). Authors may use current urban myths, use fictional technologies, or established supernatural characters and events from folklore, literature, film, or comics. 

The urban part of the story is usually found in the setting—usually a large or small city—or even a suburban community in a metropolitan area.  Use of technology (such as vehicles or communications) and everyday community and social buildings (such as libraries, schools/universities, or markets) create the  of the story.  The time where the  happens may be in the recent past or the near future.  The city-setting can be used to create a tone, move the plot, or may even be a character itself. 

Urban fantasy is most often a sub-genre of low fantasy (where magical events mix with a normal world) and/or hard fantasy (which is when magic is something  and ), and stories may be found in the sub-genres of horror, occult detective fiction, or the different "punk" genres.  Common themes include friendships or conflict between humans and other beings, and the changes such characters and events bring to local life.

Rotating black hole

A **rotating black hole** is a black hole that has angular momentum (spins on one point). 

## Formation 
Rotating black holes are made gravitational collapse of a super heavy spinning star or from the collapse or collision of a lot of compact objects, stars, or gases that spin. As every known star rotates and real collisions have an angular momentum that is not zero, it is thought that all black holes in nature are rotating black holes. 

### Relation with gamma ray bursts 
Some people think the making of a rotating black hole by a collapsar releases gamma ray bursts.

John Fryer

**John Fryer** RN (15 August 1753 – 26 May 1817) was the sailing master on the HMS Bounty, a British vessel made famous by the Mutiny on the *Bounty*. He had the interesting position of being a strong critic of both Captain William Bligh and mutiny leader Fletcher Christian, Despite his anger at Bligh, he did not support the mutiny.

Fryer was born at Wells-next-the-Sea, Norfolk. After his naval service, he returned to Wells, and his grave in the churchyard is now clearly identified. In 1787, Fryer was appointed master of HMS *Bounty*, with Fletcher Christian serving as master's mate. On 10&nbsp;January 1788, Bligh put his crew on three watches, giving one of them to Christian, and on 2 March, promoted Christian to acting lieutenant. Some have speculated that this was the source of the ill-will that later developed between Fryer and Bligh. However, as a master, Fryer would never have been promoted to lieutenant at sea. Indeed, he never did become a lieutenant.

Fryer remained loyal, and accompanied Bligh in reaching Timor. Bligh's account of the mutiny vilified Fryer, but Fryer gave fair evidence at Bligh's court-martial. Edward Christian, Fletcher's brother, was assisted by Fryer in publishing a counterweight to Bligh's version. Fryer never received promotion, but served in the Royal Navy until 1812. After his naval service, he returned to Wells.

Guy Yanai

**Guy Yanai** (born August 21, 1977) is an Israeli painter known for his paintings of everyday objects, plants, landscapes, and intimate scenes. He lives and works in both Tel Aviv, Israel, and Marseille, France. Yanai's paintings often convey "romantic symbolism," with titles that can be interpreted visually through shapes, forms, and color. He draws inspiration from novelists, philosophers, and filmmakers such as Marcel Proust, Claude Sautet, and Nietzsche.

## Life and Career 
Yanai was born in Haifa, Israel, on August 21, 1977, to Moshe and Rachel Yanai. His family relocated to Framingham, Massachusetts, in 1984, where he experienced a significant cultural shift, reflected in his art. He moved to New York in 1995 and attended Parsons School of Design and later the New York Studio School of Drawing, receiving his MA from Hampshire College in 2000. Yanai returned to Israel in 2001 and established a studio in Tel Aviv.

In 2015, Yanai co-founded Yundler Brondino Verlag, an independent publishing company focusing on artists' books and exhibitions, with his second wife, Aurore Chauve. In September 2020, he opened a second studio in Marseille.

## Artistic Practice 
Yanai's paintings are characterized by bold colors, simplified shapes, and flattened depth. He often portrays ordinary objects and spaces, drawing inspiration from his travels worldwide. Influences include photographic and film sources, art history, and personal memories. Masters like Matisse, Picasso, Cy Twombly, and David Hockney have greatly influenced his work.

Digital imagery also plays a significant role, reflecting an age of consumerism and commodified goods. Yanai's paintings reflect a sense of rootlessness, influenced by his experiences in various countries.

His paintings are executed with narrow, horizontal brushstrokes, creating a deliberate, handmade feel. Some paintings intentionally leave areas of raw canvas, adding tension. Yanai's recent works have gradually unfurled, allowing for a freer tone.

## Exhibitions 
Yanai's recent solo exhibitions have been held at various galleries, including König Galerie (2022), Miles McEnery Gallery, New York (2021), and Galerie Conrads, Düsseldorf (2020). His work has been included in exhibitions at institutions like the Haifa Museum of Art (2015), Nassima/Landau Foundation, Tel Aviv (2020), and The Velan Center for Contemporary Art, Turin (2013). He has also participated in group exhibitions at galleries worldwide.

Tony Hawk's Project 8

'''''Tony Hawk's Project 8'''* is a skateboarding video game. It was published by Activision and was developed by Neversoft. It is the eighth game in the *Tony Hawk's'' series.

It was released on November 7, 2006 for the PlayStation 2, Xbox, and Xbox 360. It was also released on November 17, 2006 for the PlayStation 3 and on November 21, 2006 for the PlayStation Portable. It would be released later in January 2007 for Mobile.

In the game, Tony Hawk starts a new skating team called Project 8. The player creates a skater and tries to build their rank by doing objectives while skating around the town. The goal is to get from the starting rank of #200 to become one of the top 8 so they can join Hawk's team. The next gen consoles have a open world free roam where players can skate all around the town. It also features an entirely new game engine. The older gen versions do not have the open world and the levels have to be individually selected.

## Reception
The game was liked by game critics. Critics said that they liked the graphics, the career mode, and new modes like the Nail the Trick mode. However, they did not like that features were taken out from the last games, that the framerate for the PS3 version had issues, and the creation options for creating a skater were limited.

''Tony Hawk's Project 8'' won Sports Game of the Year at the 10th Annual Interactive Achievement Awards.
