Deseret alphabet

The **Deseret alphabet** () is a writing system invented in the 19th Century in America by the Mormon Church. A group of leaders called the Board of Regents created it. They were from Brigham Young University.

Brigham Young wanted all letters to match sounds, to make reading and writing easier for immigrants. Teachers taught the alphabet in the school system at the time.

Between 1854 and 1869, books, newspapers, street signs and mail used the new alphabet. Even though the LDS church tried very hard to support the alphabet, it wasn't continued for very long.

## History
 and Julius Brenchley's *A Journey to Great-Salt-Lake City* (1855)]]

### Creation (1847–1854) 
Church leaders Brigham Young, Parley P. Pratt and Heber C. Kimball were part of the Board of Regents that made the Deseret alphabet.

Before they decided to use the Deseret alphabet, the Board of Regents thought they would use Pitman style alphabets. On 29 November 1853, they came together to vote. Then, Willard Richards, who was sick when the Board of Regents had talked about which alphabet to use, saw the Pitman style alphabet. He said it looked too much like the English alphabet, and he wanted to start over with something new. His words convinced Brigham Young and the rest of the Board of Regents to make the Deseret alphabet. Less than two months later, the Board of Regents approved the first 38-letter Deseret alphabet. 's *English Phonotypic Alphabet*, and in fact, the Board of Regents almost chose Pitman's alphabet as the new alphabet.]]

## Alphabet
In the Deseret alphabet, capital letters ("majuscule" or upper case) look the same as the lower case ("minuscule") letters, except the capital letters are larger. In the chart below, the "Glyph" is the letter shape, and next to it is the letter's name, which is how it sounds.

Central Atlantic magmatic province

The **Central Atlantic magmatic province** (**CAMP**) is the result of a huge volcanic outburst which started at the end of the Triassic period. 

It is the Earth's biggest continental large igneous province, with an area of about 11 million km2. It is mainly of basalt, and formed before the breakup of Pangaea in the Mesozoic Era. It may have caused the end-Triassic extinction event. 

The subsequent breakup of Pangaea created the Atlantic Ocean and provided a legacy of basaltic dikes, sills, and lavas over a vast area around the present central North Atlantic Ocean.

Money in the Bank (2017)

**Money in the Bank (2017)** was a professional wrestling pay-per-view and WWE Network livestreaming show made by WWE for their *SmackDown* brand. It took place on June 18, 2017 at the Scottrade Center in St. Louis, Missouri. It was the eighth Money in the Bank event held by WWE and the first to feature a Money in the Bank ladder match for women. 

Seven matches were performed at Money in the Bank and one of them was on the pre-show. Baron Corbin won the last match which was the men's Money in the Bank ladder match. Also, Jinder Mahal beat Randy Orton to keep the WWE Championship and Carmella cheated to win the first Money in the Bank ladder match for women. The event was also interesting because it was Mike Kanellis' first appearance ever in WWE and Maria Kanellis' first appearance in WWE since 2010.

## Background 
### Men's Money in the Bank ladder match 
Every Money in the Bank has had a Money in the Bank ladder match which has several wrestlers. The winner is the wrestler that clims a ladder and grabs the briefcase held above the ring. The winner gets a match for a world championship whenever they want for the next 12 months. Since this event only had wrestlers from *SmackDown*, the winner would not get a match for *Raw*'s world championship, which at that time was the WWE Universal Championship. Instead, the winner would get a match for SmackDown's then-world championship, the WWE Championship.

On the May 23 episode of *SmackDown*, Shane McMahon announced who he chose to be in the Money in the Bank ladder match. He chose AJ Styles, Shinsuke Nakamura, Dolph Ziggler, Sami Zayn and Baron Corbin. But Kevin Owens was upset by this because he beat Styles at Backlash. Owens said that he should be in the match, too. Shane then decided to add Kevin to the match.
### Jinder Mahal vs. Randy Orton 
At Backlash, Jinder Mahal beat Randy Orton with help from the Singh Brothers and won his first WWE Championship. On the next episode of *SmackDown*, Mahal had a celebration, but usually when a champion loses their title, they get a rematch at the following PPV/Network event. Shane McMahon came down to the ring and it turned out, Orton had asked for a rematch which Shane gave him. 

### Women's Money in the Bank ladder match 
On the May 23 episode of SmackDown, Charlotte Flair, Natalya, Tamina and Becky Lynch, one by one, asked Shane McMahon, for a match against Naomi for her WWE SmackDown Women's Championship. Shane decided to have a fatal 5-way match between the three of them where the winner would face Naomi at Money in the Bank. But before the match, the five starting brawling. So Shane came down to the ring and said he decided to have the first ever women's Money in the Bank ladder match where the winner would get a match for the SmackDown Women's Championship whenever they want.
