Darwinopterus

Darwinopterus (meaning "Darwin's wing") is a genus of pterosaur, discovered in China and named after biologist Charles Darwin. Between 30 and 40 fossil specimens have been identified, all collected from the Tiaojishan Formation, which dates to the middle Jurassic period, 160.89–160.25 Ma ago. The type species, "D. modularis", was described in February 2010. "D. modularis" was the first known pterosaur to display features of both long-tailed ('rhamphorhynchoid') and short-tailed (pterodactyloid) pterosaurs, and was described as a transitional fossil between the two groups. Two additional species, "D. linglongtaensis" and "D. robustodens", were described from the same fossil beds in December 2010 and June 2011, respectively.

The airline operated its maiden flight on 1 June 2016 from Larnaca to Athens. It was the second Cypriot airline after Tus Airways to be established since the dissolution of flag carrier Cyprus Airways in 2015. From June 2017 until October 2018, it was the second largest airline at Larnaca International Airport with 8.2% of weekly capacity after Aegean Airlines, and was predicted to become the largest airline by summer 2018 following expansion and the subsequent reduction by Aegean in Larnaca. However, Cobalt Air ceased all operations on 17 October 2018 facing financial difficulties.


St Cadoc's Church, Llancarfan

St Cadoc's Church, Llancarfan is a Grade I listed building in Llancarfan, in the Vale of Glamorgan, south Wales. It dates from the 13th century and became a Grade I listed building on 28 January 1963. It is one of several churches in Wales dedicated to St Cadoc, but it was at Llancarfan that the saint is believed to have served as abbot of, or possibly founded, a monastery of some importance. The name "Llancarfan" means "church of the stags". The church once had a chancel window said to be a masterpiece of stained glass. During the reign of Oliver Cromwell a local man named Whitton Bush destroyed the window by repeatedly beating it while shouting "Down with the Whore of Babylon!"

In 2013, restoration work was carried out on medieval wall paintings discovered at the church in 2008. When layers of limewash were removed, it was found that the topics depicted include the Seven Deadly Sins and Saint George and the Dragon. Further investigations suggested that the paintings are among the best surviving examples in the whole of the UK, and that the depiction of Saint George and the Dragon is the largest on the subject from that period, as well as the most complete. Another painting deals with the unusual topic of "Death and the Gallant". Their date has been estimated at the second half of the 15th century.

SpaceX CRS-20

SpaceX CRS-20 (CRS-20), also known as SpaceX-20, was a Commercial Resupply Service mission to the International Space Station (ISS) launched on 7 March 2020. The mission was contracted by NASA and was flown by SpaceX using Dragon. This was SpaceX's last flight for Dragon 1 and concluded the NASA Commercial Resupply Services (CRS-1) contract extension.

The twenty (20) missions by SpaceX under the CRS-1 contract carried more than 43,000 kg (94,000 pounds) of cargo to the International Space Station, and returned about 33,000 kg (74,000 pounds) of equipment and specimens to Earth, according to NASA.
The second contract (CRS-2) was awarded in January 2016 and began with the SpaceX CRS-21 in December 2020 using Dragon 2.

The Dragon capsule C112 used for CRS-20 previously flew to the ISS on CRS-10 and CRS-16. It arrived at the ISS on 9 March 2020 at 10:25 UTC and was captured by the station's Canadarm2 robotic arm, the last capture of a Dragon with Canadarm2. Cargo Dragon 2 vehicles, which will replace Dragon 1, will dock directly at the space station.

Vanilla andamanica

Vanilla andamanica is an endangered wild relative of commercial vanilla, "Vanilla planifolia", the source of Vanilla essence. It grows in the Andaman and Nicobar Islands, India in the Bay of Bengal., and classified as a Vulnerable species (VU) by the IUCN Red List.

It has creamy white fragrant flowers, and was first identified by botanist, Robert Allen Rolfe in 1918. Today, it is part of Floriculture emphasis in the island state., also conserved in the 'Dhanikhari Experimental Botanic Garden', Port Blair, by the Botanical Survey of India.

Bat Chum

Bat Chum () is a small temple built by Kavindrarimathana, a learned Buddhist minister of Khmer king Rajendravarman, at the middle of the 10th century. It is about south of Srah Srang, at Angkor, Cambodia.

It consists of three inline brick towers (in poor conditions at present), standing on the same platform, surrounded by an enclosure and a moat, with a single gopura to the east.

On the doorjambs there are Buddhist inscriptions that mention Kavindrarimathana, the "architect" (or official in charge for construction) who built Srah Srang, East Mebon, and maybe planned the temple-mountain of Pre Rup. The latter was dedicated in 960 AD, shortly before death of the architect. There were houses and a Buddhist monastery near the temple, but these wooden structures have been gone for a long time.

During the excavations in 1952, in the northern and central towers, flagstones showing a yantra were found, which George Coedès was able to reconstitute and with extreme difficulty link to the Buddhist divinities mentioned on doorjambs.

In every tower there is a different inscription signed by three different persons. The last verse of each of the three refers to the elephants as "dyke breakers".


The Strategic Advisory Board for Intellectual Property Policy (SABIP) was a non-departmental public body that provided the UK Government with advice on intellectual property policy. In 2010 the Board was merged with the Intellectual Property Office.

SABIP’s role was to commission research in order to provide Policy makers with strategic, independent, and evidence-based advice on intellectual property policy.

It was created on 2 June 2008 and the last chairman was Joly Dixon.

In May 2009 it published a report into unauthorised downloading. In September 2009, the BBC Radio 4 statistics programme "More or Less" investigated the SABIP's claim that seven million citizens of the United Kingdom (with a population of sixty-one million) were engaged in file-sharing. The programme claimed that the figure had been extrapolated from a study commissioned by the British Phonographic Industry. The study showed that 11.6% of respondents admitted to file sharing, which was later adjusted up to 16.3% based on the assumption that some people would not admit to file-sharing. The show also claimed that the BPI had used its own estimate of forty million subscribers instead of the official Office for National Statistics estimate of thirty-four million, and thus offered a more conservative estimate of 3.9 to 5.6 million file-sharers based on the study alone.

In November 2009, SABIP and the intellectual Property Office (IPO) jointly launched a programme of work as outlined in The Economic Value of IP: Research Agenda and Plan of Action. The aim of the work programme was to increase understanding of the economic effects of IP and the intellectual property rights system, in partnership with national and international research organisations.

The launch was hosted by the Rt Hon. David Lammy MP, Minister of State for Higher Education & Intellectual Property, and builds on work outlined at a Forum which took place on 10 June 2009. Attendees at the Forum included stakeholders from industry, academics, and policy-makers. The Forum was also chaired by the Rt Hon David Lammy MP.

In January 2010, SABIP published Changing Attitudes and Behaviour in the 'Non-Internet' Digital World and their Implications for Intellectual Property. The report undertook the first comprehensive review of currently available national and international research into consumers’ attitudes and behaviours to obtaining and sharing digital content offline.

In July 2010, it was announced that the board would be closed in the next year, with responsibilities passing to the Intellectual Property Office.


2017 French presidential election

The 2017 French presidential election was held on 23 April and 7 May 2017. As no candidate won a majority in the first round, a runoff was held between the top two candidates, Emmanuel Macron of En Marche! (EM) and Marine Le Pen of the National Front (FN), which Macron won by a decisive margin. The presidential election was followed by a legislative election to elect members of the National Assembly on 11 and 18 June. Incumbent President François Hollande of the Socialist Party (PS) was eligible to run for a second term, but declared on 1 December 2016 that he would not seek reelection in light of low approval ratings, making him the first incumbent head of state of the Fifth Republic not to seek reelection.

François Fillon of The Republicans (LR)—after winning the party's first open primary—and Marine Le Pen of the National Front led first-round opinion polls in November 2016 and mid-January 2017. Polls tightened considerably by late January; after the publication of revelations that Fillon employed family members in possibly fictitious jobs in a series of politico-financial affairs that came to be colloquially known as "Penelopegate", Macron overtook Fillon to place consistently second in first-round polling. At the same time, Benoît Hamon won the Socialist primary, entering fourth place in the polls. After strong debate performances, Jean-Luc Mélenchon of La France Insoumise (FI) rose significantly in polls in late March, overtaking Hamon to place just below Fillon.

The first round was held under a state of emergency that was declared following the November 2015 Paris attacks. Following the result of the first round, Macron and Le Pen continued to the 7 May runoff. It was the first time since 2002 that a National Front candidate continued to the second round and the first time in the history of the Fifth Republic that the runoff did not include a nominee of the traditional left or right parties; their combined share of the vote from eligible voters, at approximately 26%, was also a historic low.

Estimations of the result of the second round on 7 May indicated that Macron had been elected by a decisive margin; Le Pen immediately conceded defeat. After the Interior Ministry published preliminary results, the official result of the second round was proclaimed by the Constitutional Council on 10 May. Overall, 43.6% of the registered electorate voted for Macron; in 2002, by contrast, two-thirds of eligible voters voted against then-FN candidate Jean-Marie Le Pen. When Macron took office on 14 May, he became the youngest holder of the presidency in French history and the youngest French head of state since Napoleon. He named Édouard Philippe as Prime Minister the next day. The initial government was assembled on 17 May; a legislative election on 11 and 18 June gave En Marche! a substantial majority.


Buzzards Bay Entrance Light

Buzzards Bay Entrance Light is a lighthouse located in open water at the entrance to Buzzards Bay, about four nautical miles west southwest of Cuttyhunk Island, Massachusetts.

The light has a racon showing the letter "B". The new light tower is similar to the new Ambrose Light built in 1999 but dismantled in 2008 after a ship struck it.

In 1996 the present structure replaced a Texas Tower built in 1961, which in turn had replaced the lightships "Hens & Chickens" (LV-5) and "Vineyard Sound" (LV-10). Since it sits in water 50 ft (15m) deep, a conventional lighthouse would have been difficult, forcing the choice of structure.


Progress M-3

Progress M-3 () was a Soviet uncrewed cargo spacecraft which was launched in 1990 to resupply the Mir space station. The twentieth of sixty four Progress flights to visit Mir, it was a Progress-M 11F615A55 spacecraft, and had the serial number 203. It carried supplies including food, water and oxygen for the EO-6 crew aboard Mir, as well as equipment for conducting scientific research, and fuel for adjusting the station's orbit and performing manoeuvres.

Progress M-3 was launched at 23:10:57 GMT on 28 February 1990, atop a Soyuz-U2 carrier rocket flying from Site 1/5 at the Baikonur Cosmodrome. It docked with the aft port of the "Kvant-1" module at 01:04:32 GMT on 3 March. During the 56 days for which it was docked with Mir, the station was in an orbit of around , with 51.6 degrees of inclination.

Progress M-3 undocked at 20:24:43 GMT on 27 April to make way for Progress 42. It was deorbited at 00:00:00 GMT the next day. It burned up in the atmosphere over the Pacific Ocean, with any remaining debris landing in the ocean at around 00:52 GMT.

Theatre of Pompey

The Theatre of Pompey (, ) was a structure in Ancient Rome built during the latter part of the Roman Republican era by Pompey the Great (Gnaeus Pompeius Magnus). Completed in 55BC, it was the first permanent theatre to be built in Rome. Its ruins are located at Largo di Torre Argentina.

Enclosed by the large columned porticos was an expansive garden complex of fountains and statues. Along the stretch of the covered arcade were rooms dedicated to the exposition of art and other works collected by Pompey during his campaigns. On the opposite end of the garden complex was a curia for political meetings. The senate would often use this building along with a number of temples and halls that satisfied the requirements for their formal meetings. The curia is infamous as the place where Julius Caesar was assassinated by Brutus and Cassius during a session of the Senate on 15 March 44 BC.


Lesjaskogsvatnet

Lesjaskogsvatnet (literally the Lesjaskog lake) is a lake in Lesja, Norway.

The lake is unusual by having two outlets, one in each end: It flows both East into the Gudbrandsdalslågen and west into the Rauma river in the Romsdalen valley. This bifurcation lake serves as the headwaters for two major rivers: Gudbrandsdalslågen (literally the Gudbrand Valley water course, flowing south/east) and for Rauma River (flowing west). Gudbrandsdalslågen (Lågen) flows through the Gudbrandsdalen valley floor, ending in lake Mjøsa. The lake sits on the watershed in the north-western corner of Glomma drainage system that includes large parts of eastern Norway.

The lake was dammed to serve the Lesja Iron Works in the 1660s. The east end was lifted 3 meters, the west end (Rauma) was lifted by a small stone wall. Earlier the lake was shorter and concentrated in what is now the west end of the lake. About 67% of the water flows to Rauma, at low water level about 80% flows to Rauma. Rotting plants and fish on the bottom produces gas that in winter is captured under the ice. The watershed has over thousands of years shifted east because rivers and glaciers to west dig more into the bedrock, notably in the upper part of Rauma river near Verma village.

European route E136 and the Rauma Line run along the lake.

As a producer and/or writer, he worked on "The Orphanage" (2007), "Don't Be Afraid of the Dark" (2010), "The Hobbit" film series (2012–14), "Mama" (2013), "The Book of Life" (2014), "Pacific Rim: Uprising" (2018), and "Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark" (2019).

With Chuck Hogan, he co-authored "The Strain" trilogy of novels (2009–2011), later adapted into a comic-book series (2011–15) and a live-action television series (2014–17). With DreamWorks Animation, he created the Netflix animated series "" (2016–18), "3Below" (2018–19), and "" (2020), the three installments of the "Tales of Arcadia" trilogy, based on the 2015 novel he co-wrote with Daniel Kraus. Also with DreamWorks, he executive produced "Puss in Boots" (2011), "Kung Fu Panda 2 " (2011), "Rise of the Guardians" (2012), and "Kung Fu Panda 3" (2016).

Del Toro's work has been characterized by a strong connection to fairy tales and horror, with an effort to infuse visual or poetic beauty in the grotesque. He has had a lifelong fascination with monsters, which he considers symbols of great power. He is also known for his use of insectile and religious imagery, the themes of Catholicism and celebrating imperfection, underworld and clockwork motifs, practical special effects, dominant amber lighting, and his frequent collaborations with actors Ron Perlman and Doug Jones. Del Toro is close friends with fellow Mexican filmmakers Alfonso Cuarón and Alejandro G. Iñárritu, and they are collectively known as "The Three Amigos of Cinema." He was included in "Time" magazine's list of the 100 most influential people in the world in 2018 and he received a motion picture star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 2019.

Electronic filter

Electronic filters are a type of signal processing filter in the form of electrical circuits. This article covers those filters consisting of lumped electronic components, as opposed to distributed-element filters. That is, using components and interconnections that, in analysis, can be considered to exist at a single point. These components can be in discrete packages or part of an integrated circuit.

Electronic filters remove unwanted frequency components from the applied signal, enhance wanted ones, or both. They can be:

*passive or active
*analog or digital
*high-pass, low-pass, band-pass, band-stop (band-rejection; notch), or all-pass.
*discrete-time (sampled) or continuous-time
*linear or non-linear
*infinite impulse response (IIR type) or finite impulse response (FIR type)

The most common types of electronic filters are linear filters, regardless of other aspects of their design. See the article on linear filters for details on their design and analysis.


4-6-6-4

In Whyte notation, a 4-6-6-4 is a railroad steam locomotive that has four leading wheels followed by six coupled driving wheels, a second set of six driving wheels and four trailing wheels. 4-6-6-4's are commonly known as Challengers.

Other equivalent classifications are:
UIC classification: 2CC2 (also known as German classification and Italian classification)
French classification: 230+032
Turkish classification: 35+35
Swiss classification: 3/5+3/5

The UIC classification is refined to (2'C)C2' for Mallet locomotives.

Challengers were most common in the Union Pacific Railroad, but many other railroads ordered them as well. An expansion for the Union Pacific Challenger class was the Union Pacific Big Boy class, being a 4-8-8-4, instead of a 4-6-6-4.

Today, the only Challenger locomotives that survive were both owned by Union Pacific. One such locomotive, Union Pacific 3985, was operated by the Union Pacific Railroad in excursion service from 1981 to 2010, when mechanical problems took it out of service. It was retired in January 2020 due to its poor mechanical condition, and currently remains stored in Cheyenne. The second example, Union Pacific 3977 is on static display in North Platte, Nebraska.

Though originally intended for freight service, many units could be found leading passenger consists as well. Railroads that used the "Challenger" type locomotive include:


Valerie and Her Week of Wonders

Valerie and Her Week of Wonders () is a novel by surrealist Czech writer Vítězslav Nezval, written in 1935 and first published ten years afterward in 1945. The avant-garde experimental novel was written before Nezval's dramatic shift to Socialist Realism. It was made into a 1970 Czech film directed by Jaromil Jireš, an example of Czech New Wave cinema.

With this novel, Nezval explored the gothic themes and settings of such novels as Mary Shelley's "Frankenstein" (1818) and M. G. Lewis' "The Monk" (1796), as well as F. W. Murnau's film "Nosferatu" (1922; based on 1897 novel "Dracula" by Bram Stoker).

The 2005 English edition features the illustrations by Kamil Lhoták that appeared in the original edition.

Floyd Casey Stadium

Floyd Casey Stadium was a stadium in Waco, Texas. The stadium was used for 64 seasons before being replaced by McLane Stadium in 2014. It was primarily used for football, and was the home field of the Baylor Bears. The stadium, located about four miles from the Baylor University campus, cost $1.8 million to build and sat 50,000 people. Originally named Baylor Stadium, it opened in 1950 with a Baylor game against the Houston Cougars. On December 7, 2013, Baylor played its last game in the stadium, against the Texas Longhorns, where the attendance record of 51,728 was established. Baylor won 19 of its final 20 games played at the stadium.

Originally known as Baylor Stadium, the stadium was renamed at halftime of the November 5, 1988 homecoming game when it was renamed for Floyd Casey by his son, university trustee and longtime booster Carl B. Casey of Dallas, who gave US$5 million towards an $8 million stadium renovation project.

The stadium was renovated several times. Turf was first introduced to the stadium in 1972. Then in 1998, the stadium installed SportGrass, a leading artificial grass surface. In 2005, it underwent massive renovations to extend the Grant Teaff Plaza in honor of former head coach Grant Teaff. The extended plaza created much-needed updates to the stadium's façade.

The stadium was an elongated oval shape, running southeast-northwest, with large grandstands on the sidelines. The south end zone was cleared, with athletic marks painted on the ground and the large LED scoreboard behind it. (Prior to the creation of the current athletic marks, the area was painted gold, with "BAYLOR" painted in large green block letters.) In 2004, a large tarp was installed that covered the south end zone and could be removed when ticket demand necessitated it. With the tarp in place seating capacity was reduced to 47,000. The north end zone had seating in front of the Carl & Thelma Casey Athletic Center, site of the football offices, training facilities, and stadium field house.

Prior to the building of the stadium, the Baylor football team played at Carroll Field, an on-campus field last used in 1935, and Waco's Municipal Stadium on Dutton Avenue.

In the spring of 2012, Baylor regents approved a new on-campus stadium to be built on the Brazos River adjacent to Interstate 35.

The demolition of the stadium was completed on May 14, 2016.

The Book of Giants

The Book of Giants is an apocryphal Jewish book which expands the primeval creation to end of time narrative of the Hebrew Bible and, by its multifaceted elaborations on divine decrees of warning and doom, ties the ancient prophet Enoch closer to his generally recognized 'storyline' (as collectively put forth in various Enochic traditions) than does even the story's principal treatise of 1 Enoch. Together with 1 Enoch's "Book of Watchers", as Enochian scholar James C. VanderKam maintains, "it stands as an attempt to explain how it was that wickedness had become so widespread and muscular before the flood; in so doing, it also supplies the reason why God was more than justified in sending that flood." The "Giants" discovery at Qumran dates the text's creation to before the 2nd century BC.

The "Book of Giants" is an antediluvian (pre-Flood) narrative that was received primarily in Manichaean literature and known at Turfan. However, the earliest known traditions for the book originate in Aramaic copies of a "Book of Giants" among the Dead Sea Scrolls. References to the "Giants" mythology are found in: Genesis 6:1-4, the books of Enoch (Ethiopic, Slavonic, Hebrew, Greek), Jubilees, Genesis Apocryphon, 2 and 3 Baruch (Slavonic), the Damascus Document, and visions in Daniel 7:9-14. This book tells of the background and fate of these ante-diluvial giants and their fathers, the Watchers (called "grigori" in the Slavonic 2 Enoch), the "sons of God" or "holy ones" (Daniel 4:13, 17) who rebelled against heaven when—in forbidden violation of the strict "boundaries of creation" —they commingled, in their lust, with the "daughters of men."

Their even more corrupt offspring, the giants, were variously called thereafter "nephilim", "gibborim", or "rephaim," being the earthly half-breed races that fought against God and his righteous followers whose numbers diminished as the world was overwhelmed with corruption and evil; the Manichaean fragments give these wicked ones the general name "demons" (Greek Enoch calls them "bastards"). Though the terms for the Watchers and their offspring are often confused in their various translations and iterations, collectively these rebellious races are referred to as the "fallen angels" in the apocryphal sources, as also in the biblical narratives that reference them.

Federal Assembly (Switzerland)

The Federal Assembly (, , , ) is Switzerland's federal legislature. It meets in Bern in the Federal Palace.

The Federal Assembly is bicameral, being composed of the 200-seat National Council and the 46-seat Council of States. The houses have identical powers. Members of both houses represent the cantons, but, whereas seats in the National Council are distributed in proportion to population, each canton has two seats in the Council of States, except the six 'half-cantons', which have one seat each. Both are elected in full once every four years, with the last election being held in 2019.

The Federal Assembly possesses the federal government's legislative power, along with the separate constitutional right of citizen's initiative. For a law to pass, it must be passed by both houses. The two houses may come together as a United Federal Assembly in certain circumstances, such as to elect the Federal Council (the head of government and state), the Federal Chancellor, the federal judges or (only in times of great national danger) a general.

Mickey Smith

Mickey Smith is a fictional character portrayed by Noel Clarke in the British science fiction television series "Doctor Who". The character is introduced as the ordinary, working class boyfriend of Rose Tyler (Billie Piper), a London shopgirl who becomes a travelling companion to the Ninth and Tenth incarnations of an alien Time Lord known as the Doctor. Mickey first appears in the first episode of the 2005 revival, "Rose". Initially someone who struggles in the face of danger, Mickey nevertheless acts as an Earth-based ally to the Doctor and Rose. In the second series he joins the pair as a second companion of the Doctor's, though leaves during the 2006 series to pursue his own adventures. He returns to aid the Doctor and Rose in the series finale later that year, and then again for the 2008 finale "Journey's End," as well as fleetingly in 2010 in the Tenth Doctor send-off "The End of Time".

Executive producer Russell T Davies created the character alongside Rose's mother Jackie (Camille Coduri) in order to provide a home context for Rose. The character's dubious personality traits were made evident; both Davies and Clarke postulated that the character "deserved to lose his girlfriend". Though Clarke felt his character was initially "a clown" he enjoyed having the chance to mature Mickey into a more heroic character in his later appearances. Television commentators generally reacted positively to this character growth. In 2007 the entertainment and media news website Digital Spy highlighted him as a "Cult Spy Icon".


Bufotoxin

Bufotoxins are a family of toxic steroid lactones or substituted Tryptamines of which some may or may not be toxic. They occur in the parotoid glands, skin and venom of many toads (genus "Bufo") and other amphibians, and in some plants and mushrooms. The exact composition varies greatly with the specific source of the toxin. It can contain 5-MeO-DMT, bufagins, bufalin, bufotalin, bufotenin, bufothionine, epinephrine, norepinephrine, and serotonin. Some authors have also used the term "bufotoxin" to describe the conjugate of a bufagin with suberylarginine.

The toxic substances found in toads can be divided by chemical structure in two groups:

#bufadienolides, which are cardiac glycosides (e.g., bufotalin, bufogenin)
#tryptamine-related substances (e.g., bufotenin)

Toads known to secrete bufotoxin include the following:

*"Bufo alvarius"
*"Bufo americanus"
*"Bufo arenarum"
*"Bufo asper"
*"Bufo blombergi"
*"Bufo boreas"
*"Bufo bufo"
*"Bufo bufo gargarizans"
*"Sclerophrys gutturalis" (syn. "Bufo gutturalis")
*"Bufo formosus"
*"Bufo fowleri"
*"Rhinella marina" (formerly "Bufo marinus")
*"Bufo melanostictus"
*"Bufo peltocephalus"
*"Bufo quercicus"
*"Bufo regularis"
*"Bufo valliceps"
*"Bufo viridis"
*"Bufo vulgaris"


Helen Morgan

Helen Morgan (August 2, 1900 – October 9, 1941) was an American singer and actress who worked in films and on the stage.

She starred as Julie LaVerne in the original Broadway production of Hammerstein and Kern's musical "Show Boat" in 1927, as well as in the 1932 Broadway revival of the musical, and appeared in two film adaptations, a part-talkie made in 1929 (prologue only) and a full-sound version made in 1936, becoming firmly associated with the role. She suffered from bouts of alcoholism, and despite her notable success in the title role of another Hammerstein and Kern's Broadway musical, "Sweet Adeline" (1929), her stage career was relatively short. Helen Morgan died of cirrhosis of the liver at the age of 41. She was portrayed by Polly Bergen in the Playhouse 90 drama "The Helen Morgan Story" and by Ann Blyth in the 1957 biopic based on the television drama.

MAK16

Protein MAK16 homolog is a protein that in humans is encoded by the "MAK16" gene.


TRIM55

Tripartite motif-containing protein 55 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the "TRIM55" gene.

The protein encoded by this gene contains a RING zinc finger, a motif known to be involved in protein-protein interactions. This protein associates transiently with microtubules, myosin, and titin during muscle sarcomere assembly. It may act as a transient adaptor and plays a regulatory role in the assembly of sarcomeres. Four alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been described.


Alogliptin

Alogliptin, sold under the brand names Nesina and Vipidia,) is an oral anti-diabetic drug in the DPP-4 inhibitor (gliptin) class. Alogliptin does not decrease the risk of heart attack and stroke. Like other members of the gliptin class, it causes little or no weight gain, exhibits relatively little risk of hypoglycemia, and has relatively modest glucose-lowering activity. Alogliptin and other gliptins are commonly used in combination with metformin in people whose diabetes cannot adequately be controlled with metformin alone.

In April 2016, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) added a warning about increased risk of heart failure. It was developed by Syrrx, a company which was acquired by Takeda Pharmaceutical Company in 2005.

Steve Lynch

Steve Lynch (born January 18, 1955) is an American hard rock and heavy metal guitarist, as well as an instructor for the Guitar Institute of Technology at the Musician's Institute in Los Angeles. He decided to commit himself to music and mastering the guitar when Jimi Hendrix died in 1970.

In addition to Hendrix, Lynch's early musical influences came from late-1960s and early-1970s British musicians, such as Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, and The Beatles.

He originally played bass guitar, and Hendrix's death influenced him to switch. Lynch gradually developed his trademark two-handed (eight-finger) tapping technique throughout the 1970s and into the mid-1980s.

Lynch reached national acclaim in the mid-1980s, when his then-current band, Autograph, scored a hit with "Turn Up the Radio," which reached 29 on the "Billboard" Hot 100. Lynch's work on this track helped earn him "Guitar Solo of the Year" honors from "Guitar Magazine". He formed another band, Network 23, in 1990, shortly after Autograph had disbanded.

Lynch has published several books and instructional videos on his guitar style throughout his career.

When Autograph was offered the opening spot for Van Halen on their 1984 tour, [Van Halen management] said that Lynch was not allowed to do his two-handed shredding during performances because it was "Eddie's thing." Steve Lynch said in an interview that he had perfected his "hammering" technique long before he ever heard of Eddie Van Halen, and he also said that touring with Van Halen was one of his least favorite experiences.

William F. Haddock

William F. Haddock (November 27, 1877 – June 30, 1969) was one of the earliest film directors of the silent film era. From 1909 to 1919 Haddock directed twenty-four films.

Haddock was born William Frederick Haddock in Portsmouth, New Hampshire. He directed his first film, "The Boots He Couldn't Lose", in 1909. His next film was "The Immortal Alamo" in 1911, the earliest known film version of the events surrounding the 1836 Battle of the Alamo. It starred Francis Ford. No copy of that film exists today, and it is considered to be a lost film, as are many of Haddock's works.

Many of his films during his early years were film shorts, starring lesser known actors and actresses. He often teamed up with early film actor Lamar Johnstone, the first time being in the 1913 film "Hearts and Crosses", co-starring Lucille Young. That same year he married his wife, Rosa Koch.

His last direction was on the 1919 film "The Carter Case", starring Herbert Rawlinson, Marguerite Marsh, and Ethel Grey Terry. Following that film, Haddock left the film business, eventually settling in New York City. Little is known about his life following his departure from film directing, except that he played the role of an old man in Arthur Penn's 1962 adaptation of "The Miracle Worker". He died on June 30, 1969, in New York City.

Bolibourgeoisie

Bolibourgeoisie (a portmanteau of the words Bolivarian and bourgeoisie) or Bolichicos (English: Boliboys) are terms describing the new bourgeois created by the Venezuelan government of Hugo Chávez and "Chavismo", made up of people who became rich under the Chávez administration. The term was coined by journalist Juan Carlos Zapata to "define the oligarchy that has developed under the protection of the Chávez government".

Corruption among the bolibourgeoisie and Chávez-administration sympathizers has moved billions of dollars with the complicity of public officials, with some becoming rich under the guise of socialism. Henry Ramos Allup, a leader of the opposition party Democratic Action, has said corruption in the financial industry and other sectors of Venezuela is tied to government officials of the Chávez administration. Following the death of Chávez, the bolibourgeoisie became more powerful and held more influence over Venezuela during the presidency of Nicolás Maduro. Many figures of the bolibourgeoisie were included in the Panama Papers scandal.

Categorized as the "Ninja Pokémon", Greninja is a Water- and Dark-type Pokemon who is a frog-like master of swiftness and stealth.

It appeared prominently in the "XY" series of the Pokémon anime as one of Ash Ketchum's primary Pokemon, voiced by Yūji Ueda. This Greninja used its bond with Ash to transform into a unique and powerful form, Ash-Greninja, which was later released to the games as an empowered form of Greninja accessible to players of the "Pokemon Sun and Moon Special Demo Version." Greninja was introduced as a playable fighter to the "Super Smash Bros." franchise with "Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS" and "Wii U" as one of the Pokemon series' five representatives, and was integrated into manga such as "Pokémon Adventures".

Greninja has been met with a very positive reception, quickly becoming one of the most popular Pokémon of the sixth generation because of its endearing design and strength in competitive play. Its popularity has resulted in its integration into various merchandising and promotions of the "Pokémon" franchise.

2006 Dover 400

The 2006 Dover 400 was the twenty-eighth stock car race of the 2006 NASCAR Nextel Cup Series and the second in the ten-race season-ending Chase for the Nextel Cup. It was held on September 24, 2006 at Dover International Speedway in Dover, Delaware, before a crowd of 145,000. The 400-lap race was won by Jeff Burton of the Richard Childress Racing team who started from 19th position. Carl Edwards finished second and Jeff Gordon came in third.

Although Gordon won the pole position, he was immediately passed by Ryan Newman at the start of the race. 27 laps later Carl Edwards took the lead for 21 laps. David Stremme briefly held the lead until Elliott Sadler moved in front of him to claim the position, only to lose it to Matt Kenseth on lap 74. Kenseth led more laps than any other driver (215), during which Reed Sorenson and Greg Biffle also led. Burton close the gap to Kenseth by the 375th lap and battled him for the position over the next 20 laps until he moved ahead on lap 395. Burton maintained the lead for the remaining five laps to win the race. There were ten cautions and twelve lead changes by nine different drivers during the race.

It was Burton's first win of the 2006 season, the 18th of his career, and it ended a 175-race winless streak. The result advanced him to the lead of the Drivers' Championship, six points ahead of Gordon (who moved up to second). Chevrolet maintained its lead in the Manufacturers' Championship, 42 points ahead of Ford and 45 in front of Dodge with seven races left in the season.


Undead Nightmare

Red Dead Redemption: Undead Nightmare is a standalone expansion pack to the 2010 video game "Red Dead Redemption". It adds a non-canonical zombie horror-themed single-player campaign, two multiplayer modes, and cosmetic additions to the environments and characters of the open world Western action-adventure game. Set in an alternate timeline from the base game's story, the plot follows returning protagonist John Marston, a former outlaw who sets out to find the cause and possible cure to a zombie plague that has infected his wife and son. Marston liberates towns overrun by the undead and assists non-playable characters with side quests along the way.

Rockstar Games, the game's publisher, had a long-standing interest in creating a zombie game. They found the "Red Dead Redemption" universe and its American countryside to fit the cinematic heritage of the horror film genre. Rockstar wanted their additional content to function outside rather than within the base game's story, but draw on its characters and atmosphere. The company released "Undead Nightmare" as downloadable content for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 platforms on October 26, 2010, and as a retail disc bundle with other downloadable content packs in late November.

"Undead Nightmare" received generally favorable reviews at its release, and the retail disc sold two million copies by 2011. It was praised as a model for downloadable content and named among the best of the year, with top awards from the 2010 Spike Video Game Awards and "Shacknews" in this category. Critics praised its production values and handling of the zombie video game motif, and noted its lightheartedness compared to the main game, although some reviewers struggled with the game's character movement controls and found the combat unvaried. It is retrospectively considered to be among the best downloadable content packs on record.

Jacobsen Valley

Jacobsen Valley (, ‘Dolina Jacobsen’ \do-li-'na 'ya-kob-sen\) is the shallow valley in Vinson Massif, Sentinel Range in Ellsworth Mountains, descending northwards from the summit of Antarctica Mount Vinson (4892 m). It is 3.5 km long and 1.2 km wide, and is bounded to the west by Branscomb Peak and Galicia Peak, and to the east by a minor ridge running between the east side of Mount Vinson to the south and Goodge Col to the north. Draining the valley is a glacier tributary to Branscomb Glacier, part of the classical route to the summit Mount Vinson.

The valley is named after the Norwegian woman pioneer of Antarctica Solveig Gunbjørg Jacobsen (1913–1996), the first native child of the Antarctic region born in Grytviken on 8 October 1913.

Bridge over Troubled Water

Bridge over Troubled Water is the fifth and final studio album by American folk rock duo Simon & Garfunkel, released in January 1970 on Columbia Records. Following the duo's soundtrack for "The Graduate", Art Garfunkel took an acting role in the film "Catch-22", while Paul Simon worked on the songs, writing all tracks except Felice and Boudleaux Bryant's "Bye Bye Love" (previously a hit for the Everly Brothers).

With the help of producer Roy Halee, the album followed a similar musical pattern as their "Bookends" LP, partly abandoning their traditional style to incorporate elements of rock, R&B, gospel, jazz, world music, pop and other genres. It was described as their "most effortless record and their most ambitious".

"Bridge over Troubled Water" was released on January 26, 1970, and several re-releases followed. The album was mixed and released in both stereo and quadraphonic. Columbia Records released a 40th Anniversary Edition on March 8, 2011, which includes two DVDs, including the politically themed TV special "Songs of America" (1969), the documentary "The Harmony Game", additional liner notes and a booklet. Other reissues contain bonus tracks, such as the 2001 version, which covers the demo tapes of "Feuilles-O" and "Bridge over Troubled Water".

Despite numerous accolades, the duo decided to split up, and parted company later in 1970; Garfunkel continued his film career, while Simon worked intensely with music. Both artists released solo albums in the following years. "Bridge" includes two of the duo's most critically acclaimed and commercially successful songs, "Bridge over Troubled Water" and "The Boxer", which were listed on "Rolling Stone"s 500 Greatest Songs of All Time. Critically and commercially successful, the album topped the charts in over ten countries and received two Grammy Awards, plus four more for the title song. It sold around 25 million records and was ranked on several lists, including at number 172 on "Rolling Stone"s 500 Greatest Albums of All Time.

Jonathan Satter

Jonathan Satter (born January 1969) is an American business executive and government official.

In 2019, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis appointed Satter as the Secretary of the Florida Department of Management Services. As Secretary, Satter acted as the Chief Operating Officer of state government, overseeing business, workforce, and technology operations for the 3rd largest state government in the United States with 100,000+ employees, and a $96 billion budget. Satter was unanimously confirmed by the Florida Senate.

In April 2020, in response to the effects of COVID-19 on the Florida economy, Ron DeSantis increased Satter's responsibilities by naming him as the unemployment "czar", overseeing all responses to the unemployment crisis in Florida, taking the responsibilities away from Department of Economic Opportunity Director Ken Lawson. Shortly after the appointment, the unemployment system showed slow but significant improvement under Satter. A month after Satter took over, DeSantis claimed many of the problems had been fixed, and that “99.99 percent” of people who had filed claims correctly had been paid. According to the Tampa Bay Times, Satter's role was one of 8 the key decisions Ron DeSantis has made that have shaped Florida’s response to the pandemic.

In February 2021, media reported that Satter would be leaving the Ron DeSantis administration and return to the private sector.

Satter was appointed by Florida Governor Jeb Bush in 2005, and reappointed in 2006, to serve as a Commissioner of the Health Care District of Palm Beach County. In 2008, Satter was elected Chairman of the Board of Commissioners of the Health Care District, a comprehensive and diverse public health care delivery system, overseeing 1,000+ employees and a $275+ million budget. In 2011, Satter was unanimously reappointed for an unprecedented fourth term, a step so unusual that it required a change to the district’s bylaws.

From 2013 to 2018, Satter was Managing Director of US Operations, and Principal of Avison Young, which had acquired his firm.

In 2010, Satter married LPGA professional golfer Michelle McGann in Ogunquit Maine. Satter and McGann reside in North Palm Beach, Florida.

Out of All Them Bright Stars

"Out of All Them Bright Stars" is a science fiction short story by Nancy Kress. It was first published in "The Magazine of Fantasy and Science Fiction, in 1985.


AI Phoenicis

AI Phoenicis is a variable star in the constellation of Phoenix. An Algol-type eclipsing binary, its apparent magnitude is constant at 8.58 for most of the time, sharply dropping to 9.35 during primary eclipse and to 8.89 during secondary eclipse. The system's variability was discovered by W. Strohmeier in 1972. From parallax measurements by the Gaia spacecraft, the system is located at a distance of from Earth, in agreement with earlier estimates based on its luminosity (173 ± 11 parsecs).

The primary star is a K-type subgiant with a spectral type of K0IV and an effective temperature of 5,000 K, while the secondary is an F-type main sequence star with a spectral type of F7V and a temperature of 6,300 K. The primary component, while visually fainter, is slightly more luminous than the secondary due to its higher infrared output. The primary is at the end of its main sequence life and is likely in the short contraction phase known as a hook, where core hydrogen fusion has ceased but shell burning has not yet started, before ascending towards the red giant branch. Photometric and spectroscopic observations have allowed the direct determination of the parameters of the stars with extreme precision, and this system is frequently used to test stellar evolution models. The masses of the stars, 1.247 for the primary and 1.197 for the secondary, are known to a precision of just 0.3%, while the radii of 2.91 and 1.84 have uncertainties of 0.8% and 0.5% respectively. Stellar evolution models show the stars have a common age of about 4.4 billion years.

The orbit of AI Phoenicis has a period of 24.59248 days and a moderate eccentricity of 0.1821 ± 0.0051. The observation of eclipses is allowed by its 88.5° inclination to the plane of the sky. Times of minimum light show the orbital period of the system is not constant, which can be caused by a third star in the system. An analysis of the alignment of the system by the Rossiter–McLaughlin effect suggests that the secondary star rotation axis is not aligned with the orbital axis, with an angle of 87 ± 17° between them, which also indicates interactions with a third star.

Investigations continue with the TESS observatory in 2020. See Arxiv astro-ph.SR/

HD 91324

HD 91324 is a likely binary star system in the southern constellation of Vela. It is visible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude of 4.89. The distance to HD 91324, as determined from its annual parallax shift of , is 71.5 light years. It is moving further from the Earth with a heliocentric radial velocity of +21 km/s.

The primary, component A, is a metal-deficient F-type main-sequence star with a stellar classification of , where the suffix notation indicates underabundances of iron and methine in its spectrum. It is around 3.5 billion years old and is spinning with a projected rotational velocity of 9 km/s. The star has 1.18 times the mass of the Sun and 1.86 times the Sun's radius. It is radiating 4.55 times the Sun's luminosity from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 6,127 K.

A faint star designated 2MASS J10313234–5338010 was found to be a possible companion to HD 91324 through a proper motion study combining data from the Two Micron All-Sky Survey and the WISE space telescope. The projected separation of the two components is , or . Proper motion measurements for the two stars are almost identical making HD 91324 a likely binary star system. The photometry of 2MASS J10313234–5338010 is consistent with it being a red dwarf of spectral type M5 or M6.

Baranamtarra

Baranamtarra was the Queen of Lagash during the 24th century BCE.

In 2384 BCE, Baranamtarra and her husband, Lugalanda, seized power of Lagash, one of the oldest cities in Sumer. They became the largest landholders in the city, and Baranamtarra presided over a temple and several estates herself. Queen Baranamtarra managed her own private estates and those of the temple of the goddess Bau. She bought and sold slaves and sent diplomatic missions to neighboring states.

Records that still exist today reflect the private business activities of the royal wife during Lagash’s great age of international trade and prosperity. Baranamtara sent woolen clothes and silver to Dilmun and sold copper imported from Dilmun in the neighboring city of Umma. In keeping with the standard practices of international merchants, she dedicated a bronze statue to the goddess Nanshe. For her estates, which marketed milk products, Baranamtara purchased cattle in Elam. The expression “property of Baranamtara” is found on lists of people, animals, estates, and various objects.

Due to the political instability at the time, they in turn were overthrown by another ruler, Urukagina, in 2378.


Merpati Nusantara Airlines Flight 5601

Merpati Nusantara Airlines Flight 5601 (MNA5601/MZ5601) was a domestic scheduled passenger flight, that departed Achmad Yani International Airport, Semarang, Indonesia bound for Husein Sastranegara International Airport, Bandung, Indonesia. On 18 October 1992, the two-year-old CASA/IPTN CN-235-10 was on approach to Bandung when it crashed into the side of Mount Puntang, near Mount Papandayan, West Java, Indonesia at 1:30pm in bad weather. The aircraft exploded on impact killing all twenty seven passengers and four crew on board.

Flight 5601 is the worst ever civilian aviation disaster involving a CASA/IPTN CN-235, the deadliest in the company's history, the deadliest in Garut history, and the second deadliest aviation accident in Indonesia in 1992, after a plane flew into a mountain in eastern Indonesia which claimed 70 lives. It was also the deadliest plane crash involving an Indonesian aircraft. At the time of the incident it was the deadliest aviation accident in West Java, which later surpassed in 2012 when a Sukhoi Superjet 100 crashed into Mount Salak killing 45 people.

The crash sparked large controversy and trust issue in every Indonesian built aircraft. As because the plane was produced and designed by Bacharudin Jusuf Habibie, a former Indonesian president which at the time hold as State Minister of Science and Technology. He denied that the cause of the accident was because of design flaw and defense himself on the claim. Indonesian investigator team, the National Transportation Safety Committee confirmed that the cause of the crash wasn't because of design flaw, but due to pilot error aggravated by bad weather condition.

Sala del Concistoro

The Sala del Concistoro (Hall of the Consistory) is a large hall on the third loggia of the Apostolic Palace in the Vatican City. The room is in the residential wing of the palace, added by Pope Sixtus V. It was decorated by Pope Clement VIII. Clement's coat of arms feature on the ceiling of the hall.

In the "Lives of the Artists", Giorgio Vasari describes Gianfrancesco Penni as the painter of large parts of the designs for Raphael's tapestries in the Sala del Concistoro. Commissioned by Pope Clement VII, the theme of the tapestries is the life of Christ. The tapestries remained unfinished on Raphael's death, and along with tapestries for the Sala del Consistorio were woven in Brussels. The carved and gilded ceiling contains frescos by Cerubino Alberti and Paul Bril.

In February 2013, at a ceremony in Sala del Concistoro to announce the date for the canonisation of three martyrs, Pope Benedict XVI announced his resignation.
