70 Virginis b as shown in the Celestia computer program.
**70 Virginis b** is an extrasolar planet that is around 60 light-years away from the Earth in the constellation of Virgo. The finding of this planet was announced in 1996 by astronomers Geoffrey Marcy and R. Paul Butler. 70 Virginis was one of the first stars that was known to have planets orbiting it. When first announced, 70 Virginis b was thought to be inside its star's habitable zone, but proof was later found that the planet has an eccentric orbit, closer to its parent.

Characteristics
---------------

70 Virginis b is a Jupiter-type extrasolar planet that orbits around 70 Virginis every 116 days. It has 7.5 times the mass of Jupiter. Its surface gravity is thought to be about two to three times that of Jupiter's. At the time that it was found in January 1996, it was thought that the star was only 29 light years away from the Earth. This could explain why the star was less bright based on its apparent magnitude (measure of brightness). As a result, the planet's orbit was thought to be in the habitable zone and the planet was given the nickname "Goldilocks" (not too cold or too hot). The Hipparcos satellite later showed that the star was farther away from 70 Virginis and therefore its brightness was a result of the planet being too hot to be in the habitable zone.

**490 Veritas** is a big asteroid, which may have been involved in one of the more huge asteroid-asteroid collisions of the past 100 million years.

At 115 and 125 km in diameter, Veritas and 92 Undina are the biggest of the 300-strong Veritas family of asteroids. David Nesvorný of the Southwest Research Institute in Boulder traced the orbits of these bodies back in time, and calculated that they formed in a collision of a body at least 150 km in diameter with a smaller asteroid some 8 million years ago. Veritas and Undina would have been the biggest pieces of that collision.

The thought Veritas collision would have been too far from Jupiter for the pieces to have been slung into a collision course with Earth. However, solar radiation would have caused the resulting dust to drift inward to Earth orbit over a time span consistent with the record of dust in the ocean sediment.

Today continuing collisions among Veritas-family asteroids are estimated to send five thousand tons of cosmic dust to Earth each year, 15% of the total.

It was found by Max Wolf in 1902. Its provisional name was **1902 JP**.

The **1965 Yerevan Demonstrations** were a 24-hour mass protest in Yerevan, Armenian SSR on the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the Armenian genocide. It is said that this event constitutes the first step in the struggle for the recognition of the 1915 genocide.

On April 24, 1965, for the first time for any such demonstration in the entire Soviet Union, one million protesters held a 24-hour demonstration in front of the Opera House, and demanded that the Soviet Union government officially recognize the Armenian Genocide committed by the Young Turks in the Ottoman Empire, and build a memorial in Armenia's capital city of Yerevan to perpetuate the memory of the victims of the Armenian Genocide.

Many committed intellectuals, such as Silva Kaputikyan, had made impassioned pleas to the authorities in Moscow. The memorial, on Tsitsernakaberd hill, was completed in 1967.

Following the example of this high-profile demonstration, similar protests were made throughout the world, in whichever country the Armenian Diaspora exists. Since the day of the protests, Armenians to this day visit the memorial and make protests around the world to gain acceptance of the Armenian Genocide by Turkey.

The accident of **AIRES Flight 8250** occurred on August 16, 2010 on the runway of the Gustavo Rojas Pinilla International Airport in San Andrés, Colombia. The Boeing 737-700 with registration HK-4682 of the Colombian airline AIRES took off from the El Dorado International Airport in Bogotá, Colombia and during landing under a strong electrical storm the plane lost control when it touched down meters before entering the runway. which caused the aircraft to split into three parts and remain in one of the airport's headwaters. Two people died and 114 more were injured.

Seatmap of AIRES 8250

Crew
----

The crew consisted of 6 people, Captain Wilson Gutiérrez (43), First Officer Camilo Piñeros Rodríguez (25), and 4 flight attendants.

Investigation
-------------

Wreckage
The entity that governs the Civil Aviation of Colombia (Aerocivil) sent a commission made up of its director and several investigators and those responsible for the security of Aires to determine the causes of the accident. The Colombian Minister of Transportation, Germán Cardona Gutiérrez, also traveled to San Andrés to assess the damage and attributed the accident to bad weather conditions as a result of a strong electrical storm that fell on the island when the plane landed. However, after years of investigation with personnel from the same airline, it became known that days before the AIRES accident an aircraft of the same company had faced adverse weather conditions for landing on San Andrés Island. At that time, the flight had to go to its alternative airport in Panama, an action that had a strong economic impact at the time the airline passed through, which is why the pilots were under pressure from the airline to carry out the landing. According to the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), the failure of the human factor can not only come from the crew of an aircraft, but also from an external environment, as was the case with the AIRES accident.

The investigation concluded that the crash was caused by the misjudgement by the crew of the aircraft's altitude during the last phase of the approach.

In popular culture
------------------

The accident is featured in the fifth episode of Season 20 of *Air Crash Investigation,* also known as *Mayday.* The episode is titled "Runway Breakup".
An 8-track cartridge
The **8-track** is a music format which first appeared in the 1960s. It is a tape format which was created so people could play music in their cars. Unlike cassettes, 8 tracks are a continuous loop of tape. They did not need to be turned over to keep playing. There were four programs of music on each tape with two tracks on each program to create stereo sound. When the track was over, a very thin piece of metal in the tape would be sensed. This would cause the part of the player that read the tape (the *head*) to start reading the next track. 8 tracks became very popular in the early 1970s. They were used both in the home and car.

In the 1970s, the cassette tape was improved. It eventually had better quality than 8-tracks. By the late 1970s, cassettes became more popular than 8-tracks. In 1980, 8-tracks were rarely being made. They could still be bought through mail order record clubs until 1987. Today there are still a small number of people who collect 8 tracks. The last 8-tracks from a major label were released in 1988. Some unauthorized (bootleg) releases were made as late as 1995. Some independent labels still occasionally release 8-tracks as a novelty or collectible.

Problems
--------

The 8-track had many problems. Unlike cassettes, the rubber roller was in the cartridge. It would often wear out, or chemically break down. This could cause a gooey substance in the tapes. This happened faster if the cartridge was left in a hot car. This also caused the tapes to wear out quickly. The spacing between the tracks were very narrow. Music from tracks other than the one being played could often be heard. The sensing foil in the tape would sometimes break off. This would stop the tape from changing tracks.
**98 Degrees** (stylized as **98°**) is a Grammy-nominated American pop and contemporary R&B band. The group is made up of four vocalists: Justin Jeffre, Jeff Timmons and brothers Nick and Drew Lachey. It was formed by Timmons in Los Angeles, California. All members of the group come from Ohio.

Instead of being assembled by a record label or a producer like most boy bands, 98 Degrees formed independently. They joined a record label later.

The group has sold over 10 million records across the world. They have had eight top 40 singles in the United States.

Songs from 98 Degrees include "This Gift", "True to Your Heart" and "Invisible Man". In 1999 the group released the album *This Christmas*. It sold over one million copies.

In 2002, the group took a break from recording and touring. In 2012, they got back together. In May 2013, they released a new album, *2.0*.

The **AC Mogadiscio** ("Associazione Calcio Mogadiscio" in Italian language) was a football team of the Italian community in Mogadishu, the capital of Somalia. It existed from 1933 (during the years of existence of the Italian colony called "Italian Somalia") until 1960, when the Italians finished their administrative mandate from the ONU in Somalia and most of the few Italians remaining in Mogadishu left Somalia forever.

History
-------

The AC Mogadiscio was a historical football team in Mogadishu, which officially existed until 1960 being created mainly for the Italian community of the capital of Italian Somalia. In 1933, the first Somali soccer championship -amateur- was created in Mogadishu under Italian rule, called "Coppa Federazione Sportiva", with three teams ("AC Mogadiscio", "Marina" and "Milizia"). The AC Mogadishu came second.

In 1947 the AC Mogadishu won the (amateur) Somalia Championship.

In 1952 the name of the team was changed in *AS Mogadiscio* ("Associazione Sport Mogadiscio"), while was third in the Championship of that year. The reason of the change was that the team was followed almost exclusively by Italian colonists and their descendants, so the management tried to get followers from the native Somalis erasing the Italian word "calcio" (that means 'football' in Italian).

The main rival of the AS Mogadiscio (the team of the Italians of the capital) was in the 1950s the Lavori Publici FC (or "Genio Oficina"), that was the team of the Italian of all Somalia and that had many native Somalis as fans.

Finally, in the 1957-58 Championship, the AS Mogadiscio was named "Champion of Somalia", with the following results:

* *Name of football Team---matches/victories/tie/defeats/goals done/goals received/points*:
* 1.AS Mogadishu...….. 10 9 0 1 43-10 18 "Champion"
* 2.AS Corpo Polizia…. 10 6 2 2 21-11 14
* 3.Autoparco...………. 10 6 0 4 25-18 12
* 4.LLPP....……...……. 10 4 3 3 20-17 11 (aka Lavori Publici FC)
* 5.AS The Gab...…….. 10 2 0 8 10-34 4
* 6.AC Scuraran…..…... 10 0 1 9 10-39 1

In the 1959-1960 Championship the AS Mogadishu disputed its last contest, being third.

In 1961 the team was declared "closed", mainly for economic reasons since it almost did not have followers (because of the almost total disappearance of the Italians of Mogadishu & Somalia, who moved away -mainly to Italy)).

The **2017 Benue State flooding**  Benue State is one of the 36 States of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, West Africa. The State experienced one of the terrible floodings, in September 2017, the situation made about 100,000 people homeless and destroyed over 2,000 homes.

Causes of the flood
-------------------

The floods occurred due to many weeks of rainfall which led to the overflowing of rivers. The floods affected 21 out of 23 local government areas of the State. This was not rear, as flooding is expected in the area of Benue State as a result of heavy rainfall. One of which happened in the year 2012.

Effects on climate change
-------------------------

The flooding has really affected the area severely. For example, two bridges on River Guma and Mande Ortom at Tor Kpande area of the State were destroyed. Other things that were also affected were; Farmlands, food barns, and some newly constructed roads within the area. This seriously affected the agricultural production in Benue State. 
Rainfall intensity seemed to be increasing with a gradual reduction. The average discharge at Makurdi hydrological Station was 3468.24 m³s⁻¹, and the highest peak flow discharge was 16,400 m³s⁻¹. The daily maximum and annual average temperatures gradually rise, resulting in increased heat. Analysis showed that the soils are moderately fertile but require the effective application of inorganic and organic fertilizers. The main occupational activities in the area are based on agriculture.
Las Ramblas in Barcelona. The red line shows the route of the van.
On 17 August 2017, a white van hit pedestrians on La Rambla, Barcelona, leaving fourteen people dead and dozens injured. The two suspects then fled on foot.

***A Fall of Moondust*** is a science fiction novel written by Arthur C. Clarke. It was first published in 1961 and has been reprinted many times.

Plot
----

The story takes place on the Moon in the near future. A group of tourists are travelling on the surface of the moon, which is covered by a thin layer of very fine dust, a fine powder drier (it contains less water) than a desert on Earth. The tourists are travelling in a vessel called *Selene*, that skims along the surface.

A 'moonquake' (similar to an earthquake) causes the dust to collapse, and *Selene* sinks below the surface. They cannot make contact with Control to call for help, and they only have enough air for a few days. The people are also generating heat, which is dangerous.

Captain Pat Harris and his stewardess Sue Wilkins try to keep the passengers occupied while waiting to be rescued. They are helped by a retired explorer, Commodore Hansteen.

Back at control, Chief Engineer Lawrence prepares to search for the lost tourists, although he doesn't think it can be done in time. But the trail left by Selene is seen by telescope from a satellite high above the Moon. The rescue attempt goes ahead.

Lawrence and his team do find the sunken ship and dig down through the dust to cut a hole in the hull. The tourists are able to climb out to safety, but with seconds to spare before Selene fills with dust and also catches fire.

Pat Harris and Sue Wilkins get married.

The **2011 Vancouver Stanley Cup riot** was a riot that took place on June 15, 2011 in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.

The riot took place after the Boston Bruins defeated the Vancouver Canucks in Game 7 of the 2011 Stanley Cup Finals. It happened immediately after the Bruins defeated the Canucks. There were at least 140 people that were reported as being injured in the incident, one critically and at least four people were stabbed. Close to 100 people were arrested.

People were angry over the result of the final game and threw objects at the large screens that were at the viewing area. They set fire to Boston Bruins flags, overturned and set fire to two vehicles in front of the main Canada Post headquarters. There were reports of similar car fires in a nearby parking garage that included two police cruisers. The rioters smashed windows and looted stores. The riot ended around midnight when people in the crowd either went home or were arrested. The mayor of Vancouver, Gregor Robertson, called the rioters "a small group of troublemakers". Several of the participants in the riot turned themselves in to the police after their faces were shown on TV, including the person responsible for setting the first car on fire. According to CBC News, the destruction caused by the rioters was worse than the riot that followed the Canucks loss in Game 7 of the 1994 Stanley Cup Finals, especially the looting aspect.

The **2011 New South Wales state election** was held on 26 March 2011 to elect the 55th Parliament of New South Wales, including all 93 seats in the Legislative Assembly and 21 of the 42 seats in the Legislative Council. It was conducted by the New South Wales Electoral Commission (NSWEC).

The incumbent Labor government, led by Premier Kristina Keneally, tried to win a fifth consecutive term in government, but were defeated by the Liberal/National Coalition, led by Barry O'Farrell, in a landslide.

Labor had a two-party swing against them of 16.48%, the largest swing against a sitting government in Australia since World War II. The Coalition won the largest majority government in New South Wales history, winning 69 seats in the Legislative Assembly (or 74.2% of the chamber). It was one of the worst defeats of a sitting Australian government since Federation in 1901. Labor won its lowest ever seat total, winning only 20 seats.

In the Legislative Assembly, the Coalition won 69 seats, Labor won 20, the Greens won one and independents won three. In the Legislative Council, the Coalition won 11 seats (with a total of 19), Labor won five (with a total of 14), the Greens won three (with a total of five), the Shooters, Fishers and Farmers Party won one (with at total of two) and the Christian Democrats won one (with a total of two).
**5 Astraea** (written **Astræa** in the early literature) is a big main belt asteroid. Its surface is very reflective (bright) and what it's made of is probably a mixture of nickel-iron with magnesium- and iron-silicates. The adjectival form of the name, although unused, would be *Astraean* (which also designates a genus of star corals).

Size comparison: the first 10 asteroids profiled against Earth's Moon. Astrea is the fifth from the left.
Astraea was the fifth asteroid found, on December 8, 1845 by K. L. Hencke. It was his first of two asteroid discoveries. The second was 6 Hebe. An amateur astronomer and post office employee, Hencke was looking for 4 Vesta when he stumbled on Astraea. The King of Prussia awarded him with an annual pension of 300 US$ (1968 dollars) for the discovery.

Photometry indicates prograde rotation, that the north pole points in the direction of right ascension 9 h 52 min, declination 73° with a 5° uncertainty. This gives an axial tilt of about 33°.

Astrea is physically unremarkable but notable mainly because for 38 years (after the discovery of Vesta in 1807) it had been thought that there were only four asteroids. In terms of maximum brightness, it is indeed only the *seventeenth brightest* main belt asteroid, being fainter than 192 Nausikaa and even, at rare near-perihelion oppositions, the highly eccentric carbonaceous 324 Bamberga.

After the discovery of Astraea, thousands of other asteroids would follow. Indeed, the discovery of Astrea proved to be the starting point for the eventual demotion of the four original asteroids (which were regarded as planets at the time) to their current status, as it became apparent that these four were only the biggest of a whole new type of celestial body.

There has been only one seen stellar occultation by Astraea (February 2, 1991).

***A Daughter of the Congo*** is a 1930 silent movie. It is a race movie. It was completely produced by blacks and intended for a black audience. It was written, directed, and produced by Oscar Micheaux. The movie is based on Henry Francis Downing's novel *The American Cavalryman* (1917). *A Daughter of the Congo* is presumed to be a lost film.

The movie stars Katherine Noisette as Lupelta, a mixed race Congolese girl. She is abducted by Arab slave traders. She is rescued by an African American military battalion. She is taken to a mission school. She becomes acquainted with Western-style civilization. She never completely loses touch with the tribal customs and influences that shaped her early years.

*A Daughter of the Congo* was Micheaux's last silent movie. Silent movies were considered to have little money-making value in 1930. Micheaux released the movie as a "talking, singing, dancing picture". It only contained a single short sound sequence that included a performance of the song "That Gets It".

Theophilus Lewis of the *Amsterdam News* wrote a harsh review: "The scene is laid in a not so mythical republic in Africa. Half of the characters wear European clothes and are supposed to be civilized, while the other half wear their birthday suits and some feathers and are supposed to be savages. All the noble characters are high yellows; all the ignoble ones are black. It is based on a false assumption that has no connection with the realities of life."

An **acronym** is a word whose letters are the first letters of other words. People often create a short acronym that means the same thing as a much longer phrase (set of words). This is faster and shorter to say than the long phrase. 

Examples of acronyms are:

* COBOL - **CO**mmon **B**usiness **O**riented **L**anguage
* LASER - **L**ight **A**mplification through **S**timulated **E**mmission of **R**adiation
* QUANGO - **Qu**asi-**a**utonomous **n**on-**g**overnmental **o**rganisation
* RADAR - **RA**dio **D**etecting **A**nd **R**anging
* SARS - **S**evere **A**cute **R**espiratory **S**yndrome
* SCUBA - **S**elf-**C**ontained **U**nderwater **B**reathing **A**pparatus
* SNAFU - **S**ituation **N**ormal: **A**ll **F**ouled **U**p

An acronym usually must be able to be spoken as word. Other abbreviations such as ASAP (**a**s **s**oon **a**s **p**ossible), USA (the **U**nited **S**tates of **A**merica), ECU (**E**uropean **C**urrency **U**nit), FBI (**F**ederal **B**ureau of **I**nvestigation), NBA (**N**ational **B**asketball **A**ssociation) have combinations of letters that are not pronounced as a single word. People just say the letters, one after another. 

These three-letter acronyms, and some more obscure four-letter ones such as ISDN are more often called initialisms.

The word "acronym" comes from the Greek acro ‘extreme’ and onymus ‘name’.

Extremes
--------

The world's longest acronym, according to the *Guinness Book of World Records* is NIIOMTPLABOPARMBETZHELBETRABSBOMONIMONKONOTDTEKHSTROMONT (Russian: Нииомтплабопармбетжелбетрабсбомонимонконотдтехстромонт). It is 56 letters long (54 in Cyrillic). It is from the *Concise Dictionary of Soviet Terminology* and means "the Laboratory for Shuttering, Reinforcement, Concrete and Ferroconcrete Operations for Composite-monolithic and Monolithic Constructions of the Department of Technology of Building Assembly Operations of the Scientific Research Institute of the Organization for Building Mechanization and Technical Aid of the Academy of Building and Architecture of the USSR."

Acorns of Sessile Oak
Acorns of *Lithocarpus collettii* 
Acorns of  *Quercus macrolepis* 
The **acorn** is the fruit of the oak tree. It is a nut, and has a single seed (rarely two seeds), enclosed in a tough, leathery shell. Acorns vary from 1 – 6 cm long and 0.8 – 4 cm broad. Acorns take between about 6 or 24 months (depending on the species) to mature.

Acorns are one of the most important wildlife foods in areas where oaks grow. Creatures that make acorns an important part of their diet include birds, such as jays, pigeons, some ducks and several species of woodpeckers. Small mammals that feed on acorns include mice, squirrels and several other rodents. Such large mammals as pigs, bears, and deer also eat large amounts of acorns: they may constitute up to 25% of the diet of deer in the autumn. In some of the large oak forests in southwest Europe, traditionally called "dehesas", pigs are still turned loose in oak groves in the autumn, to fill and fatten themselves on acorns. 

Acorns contain tannins, which are toxic to some animals such as horses. The tannins can be soaked out, using water.

***The 2000 Year Old Man*** is a comedy sketch. It was first created by Carl Reiner and Mel Brooks in the 1950s. It was then first performed public in the 1960s. Brooks plays a 2000-year-old man. He is interviewed by Reiner in a series of comedy routines that were turned into a collection of records and also performed on television.

History
-------

The main story for the sketches were laid during the making of *Your Show of Shows*. Here, Reiner was an actor and Brooks was a writer. Reiner explains the first sketch:

> I remember the first question I asked him. It was because I had seen a program called *We the People Speak*, early television. [He puts on an announcer voice] "We the People Speak. Here’s a man who was in Stalin's toilet, heard Stalin say, 'I’m going to blow up the world.' I came in, I said this is good for a sketch. No one else thought so, but I turned to Mel and I said, "Here's a man who was actually seen at the crucifixion 2,000 years ago," and his first words were, "Oh, boy." We all fell over laughing. I said, "You knew Jesus?" "Yeah," he said, "Thin lad, wore sandals, long hair, walked around with 11 other guys. Always came into the store, never bought anything. Always asked for water." Those were the first words, and then for the next hour or two I kept asking him questions, and he never stopped killing us.
> 
> 

It was originally a joke between the two that was then shared at parties. Reiner started bringing a tape recorder to the parties because of this. Lots of people such as George Burns said to the two that they should their sketches on an album. Only Steve Allen, however, wasa able to convince them to record it in his studio.

Recordings and performances
---------------------------

Their first television appearances while doing the sketch were on *The Ed Sullivan Show* in February 1961. It was then seen on *The Steve Allen Show* 8 months later.

Reiner and Brooks released five comedy albums. The 2000 Year Old Man character was shown on one track for each of the first three albums and was always shown in the last two.

1. *2000 Years with Carl Reiner and Mel Brooks* (1960)
2. *2000 and One Years with Carl Reiner and Mel Brooks* (1961)
