at 10 June 1570 he managed to continue his activities against the Ottomans with the support of the Greek element of Epirus. The Next year at 22 November 1571 support the Venetians in the successful siege of Margariti castle. At the end of the war (1573), he was appointed governor of the coastal town of Parga, opposite of Corfu, by the Venetians. In 1574, however, Lantzas was dismissed from office and banished by the Venetian authorities. Though the reason for this turn of events is unclear, an anonymous letter sent to the local Venetian provveditore (governor-general) alleged that Lantzas was ostensibly buying munitions from the Spanish to allow the locals to defend themselves against the Turks, but according to the letter he was in fact selling these munitions to the Turks for his own profit. The letter goes on to ask for Lantzas to be assassinated. Meanwhile, being unhappy with the Venetian–Ottoman peace settlement, he transferred to Spanish service. Lantzas served the Viceroy of Naples and became a notable member of the Greek community of Naples. In Spanish service Venice decided to sue for a unilateral peace with the Ottomans in 1573. As a result, the Greek collaborators of the Venetians and their agents in Corfu and the Ottoman Empire turned to the Kingdom of Naples, then part of the Spanish Empire. On the other hand, Spain actively encouraged insurrections against the Ottoman Empire and acceded to the petitions of a number of rebels and potential rebels. In the following years, Lantzas served the Spanish as a corsair and spy. In July 1576, he went to Himara, where the local population was willing to raise a revolt against Ottoman rule. As part of this, Lantzas, together with the rebels from Himara, led an attack against the nearby Ottoman fortress of Sopot (today Borsh), with success. Lantzas' assignment was to supervise the military movements of the Ottomans, as well as those of the Venetians, and to direct the shipment of weapons, provisions, spies, and saboteurs who were sent repeatedly to Epirus, the Ottoman capital of Constantinople, and other parts of the Ottoman Empire. He led pirate raids against Ottoman ships, while from 1577 he began chasing and attacking Venetian ships (frigates and galliots) by orders of the governor of Bari and Otranto. These activity resulted in diplomatic tensions between Habsburg Spain and Venice. This activity aroused the wrath of Venice, which

ʿAbd Allāh ibn Khāzim al-Sulamī () (died 692) was the Umayyad governor of Khurasan between 662 and 665 and again in late 683, before becoming the nominal Zubayrid governor of the same province between 684 and his death. Life Early career Abd Allah ibn Khazim was the son of Khazim ibn Zabyan of the Banu Sulaym tribe and the his wife Ajla. In 651/52, during the first Muslim campaign into Khurasan, Abdallah ibn Amir put Ibn Khazim in command of the Arab army's advance guard with Ibn Khazim then capturing the town of Sarakhs. He was later appointed by Caliph Uthman (r. 644–656) as governor of Nishapur, alongside Ibn Khazim's paternal cousin Qays ibn al-Haytham al-Sulami. Toward the end of his reign, Uthman combined the administrative districts east of Basra into the single province of Khurasan, though it remained a dependency of Basra, under the governorship of Qays. Qays made Ibn Khazim his envoy to the governor of Basra, Ibn Amir. According to historian al-Tabari, Ibn Khazim acquired a document from Ibn Amir that declared Ibn Khazim governor of Khurasan should Qays depart the province. Indeed, when Uthman was assassinated in January 656, Qays departed Khurasan to investigate the situation in Iraq with Ibn Khazim being given authority over the province until being dismissed by Caliph Ali (r. 656–661) later that year. Abdallah ibn Amir was reinstated as governor of Basra in 656. He dispatched Ibn Khazim and Abd al-Rahman ibn Samura to Balkh and Sijistan (Sistan) to restore Muslim rule, while Qays was made governor of Khurasan. When Qays proved incapable of controlling the province, he was replaced by Ibn Khazim, who put down a rebellion in Qarin in 662. He remained governor of the province until being dismissed in 665 by Ziyad ibn Abih, who had replaced Ibn Amir as governor of Basra in mid-665. Governor of Khurasan Ibn Khazim was later part of a group of Arab tribal commanders who accompanied Salm ibn Ziyad to Khurasan in 681 from Basra when Salm was appointed governor of Khurasan by Caliph Yazid I (r. 680–683). Salm left Ibn Khazim in charge of the province after fleeing in the wake of the successive deaths of caliphs Yazid and his son Mu'awiya II in 683 and 684, which caused the collapse of Umayyad rule. Ibn Khazim gave his allegiance to the Mecca-based caliph Abd Allah ibn al-Zubayr. Early on, he contended
The Chalet is a heritage-listed residence located at 2 Yerton Avenue, Hunters Hill in the Municipality of Hunter's Hill local government area of New South Wales, Australia. It was designed and built during 1855; and assembled by German carpenters Willhelm Gross, Frederick Lemm, and Jacob Arndt. It is also known as The Bungalow (1867) and The Nora Heysen Studio. The property is privately owned. It was added to the New South Wales State Heritage Register on 10 June 2005. History of The Chalet A detailed study of The Chalet is included in "Fine Houses of Sydney" by Robert Irving, John Kinstler and Max Dupain. The following historical outline and description are largely drawn from that study. The Chalet is the only surviving residence of four prefabricated "Swiss Cottages" that were shipped from Hamburg to Sydney and erected in Hunters Hill during the gold rush period in 1854 or early 1855 by a French-speaking Swiss immigrant Etienne-Jean-Leonard Bordier-Roman shortly after his arrival in Australia. Prior to this time, Bordier and the French Count Gabriel de Milhau (exiled for his part in France's 1848 revolution) had initially settled on the Clarence River, however they were forced to abandon the venture when their workers all downed tools and headed for the NSW goldfields. The houses may have been a prototype for the 1855 Paris Industrial Exhibition that were erected in Hamburg. The Swiss or possibly Bavarian Cottage design was probably selected for its picturesque qualities, and also possibly for nationalistic reasons, as Bordier was Swiss. The four houses were erected on two whaling land grants of four acres (either side of Ferry Street) purchased by Bordier in 1855, on the Parramatta River in Hunters Hill, as a speculative housing venture. Bordier established a wharf at the end of Ferry Street, which became the suburb's first commercial gateway. A Post Office was set up next to this wharf. Hunters Hill during this period was an established French enclave, with the residence of the French consul Louis Francois Sentis, located in Hunters Hill house of "Passy" (1855-6, 1 Passy Avenue) and much of the area's early development was constructed by men of French descent. The houses were advertised as "four splendid family residences, standing in their own grounds, of about 1 acres each", with "wood and water in abundance". Beverly Sherry in her study of Hunter Hill notes that this was the first planned group

was finally fit to return in September 2014 and won three consecutive yusho to quickly return to the third highest makushita division. He was finally promoted back to jūryō in November 2016. Only Hokutokuni (off the banzuke) and Kotobeppu (jonokuchi 39) had returned to jūryō from lower ranks than Ryūden had. Ryūden was promoted to the top makuuchi division in January 2018, becoming the second top division wrestler from Takadagawa stable after Kagayaki to achieve this since the new head coach took over. He was the first Yamanashi Prefecture native to be ranked in makuuchi since Onohana in March 1988. He scored ten wins in his top division debut and shared the Fighting Spirit prize with fellow newcomer Abi. Since then, he has stayed in makuuchi and has mainly shown solid performances. In May 2019 he won ten bouts and received his first Technique prize. He was promoted to komusubi for the July 2019 tournament, the first from Yamanashi Prefecture since Fujizakura 47 years earlier. He scored only 4–11 in his komusubi debut, and remained in the mid-maegashira ranks until May 2021, where he fell to maegashira 14. He was withdrawn from that tournament by his stablemaster, who said he had breached COVID-19 compliance guidelines. Ryūden was later suspended for three tournaments retroactive to the May basho; he was eligible to compete again in November. The compliance committee set up by the Sumo Association to investigate the matter found that on 25 different occasions between March 12, 2020 and January 20, 2021, he had gone out with a woman who was not his wife, breaking the rules on unnecessary trips. When Ryūden competed again after his suspension in November 2021, he won the makushita division title with a perfect 7-0 record. A 6-1 record in the following basho earned Ryūden a return to jūryō for the March 2022 tournament. Fighting style Ryūden is a yotsu sumo specialist who prefers grappling techniques. His favourite winning kimarite is yori-kiri, with a moro-zashi hold, or both arms inside his opponent's.

Sakina Banu Begum (died 25 August 1604) was a Mughal princess, the daughter of Mughal emperor Humayun. Life Sakina Banu Begum was the daughter of Emperor Humayun, and his wife Mah Chuchak Begum. Her siblings included, Mirza Muhammad Hakim, Farrukh Fal Mirza, Bakht-un-Nissa Begum, and Amina Banu Begum. Sakina Banu Begum was married to Shah Ghazi Khan, the cousin of Naqib Khan Qazvini, a personal friend of Akbar. His uncle Qazi Isa had long served as the Qadi of Iran, came to India and was taken into government service. In 1573, after his death, Naqib Khan reported to Akbar that he had left his daughter to him. Akbar went to Naqib's house and married her. Thus, two of his cousins were married into the imperial family. In 1578, Sakina Banu Begum was sent to Kabul, before Akbar's second march on the city. Her brother at that point seemed to have conducted negotiations with the Abdulkhairi Uzbek of the Marwa-un-nahr and with the Safavids, who treated him as a sovereign ruler as well as another Timurid potentate, Prince Sulaiman Mirza. She was sent to pacify the Mirza and was advised to offer Prince Salim Mirza (future Emperor Jahangir) in marriage to his daughter as an incentive. Sakina Banu Begum died on 25 August 1604.

IIIB surface-to-air missiles, the SM-6 will also be installed in the future. The SM-6 missiles can be networked to the CEC system and thus allow it to receive targeting information from other CEC-equipped sources. While the primary role of the SM-6 is to intercept enemy aircraft and cruise missiles, the SM-6 is also capable of intercepting ballistic missiles in their terminal phase and can double as an anti-ship missile. As for anti-ballistic missiles, these ships are equipped with the SM-3 Block IA, IB, and IIA. The SM-3 Block IIA is the latest variant of the SM-3 missiles, being re-designed drastically to defend broader areas. The ship will use Type 17 Ship-to-Ship Missiles (SSM-2) in addition to an existing Type 90 (SSM-1B). As for lightweight torpedoes, the HOS-303 torpedo tubes were adopted for this class; this is contrary to the HOS-302 tubes that were used until the Atago class. Future armaments for the ships are slated to include a locally built railgun and a laser point-defense system. Operational history On 16 November 2022, the guided-missile destroyer fired an SM-3 Block IIA missile, successfully intercepting the target outside the atmosphere in the first launch of the missile from a Japanese warship. On 18 November 2022, the likewise fired an SM-3 Block IB missile with a successful hit outside the atmosphere. Both test firings were conducted at the Pacific Missile Range Facility on Kauai Island, Hawaii, in cooperation with the U.S. Navy and U.S. Missile Defense Agency. This was the first time the two ships conducted SM-3 firings at the same time, and the tests validated the ballistic missile defense capabilities of Japan’s newest Maya-class destroyers.

The 2017–18 Melbourne Renegades Women's season was the third in the team's history. Coached by Tim Coyle, they finished the regular season of WBBL03 in sixth place. Captain and new recruit Amy Satterthwaite won the league-wide Player of the Tournament award, though the Renegades nevertheless once again failed to qualify for finals. In promising signs for the team's future, all-rounder Sophie Molineux won the WBBL Young Gun Award, for which leg spinner Georgia Wareham and pace bowler Maitlan Brown were also nominated. Squad Each WBBL|03 squad featured 15 active players, with an allowance of up to five marquee signings including a maximum of three from overseas. Australian marquees are classed as players who made at least ten limited-overs appearances for the national team in the three years prior to the cut-off date (24 April 2017). Personnel changes ahead of the season included: Tim Coyle was appointed head coach, replacing Lachlan Stevens. New Zealand marquee Amy Satterthwaite signed on, having departed the Hobart Hurricanes. Satterthwaite was appointed captain, replacing Rachel Priest (6–10 win–loss record) who moved to the Sydney Thunder. England marquee Danni Wyatt did not return for WBBL|03. Sri Lanka marquee Chamari Atapattu filled the vacant overseas player slot. Grace Harris departed after one season, returning to the Brisbane Heat. Annabel Sutherland moved to the Melbourne Stars. Jess Duffin, Emma Inglis and Hayley Jensen signed with the Renegades, exiting the Melbourne Stars. Jensen, a New Zealander, was classed as a local player due to her permanent residence in Australia and a lack of recent international cricket appearances.

In "bizarre" scenes, Sixers batter Sarah Aley attempted to score a game-tying run on the last delivery despite Renegades wicket-keeper Emma Inglis, having received the ball over the stumps from fielder Kris Britt and thus believing the match to be over, already celebrating victory.

close proximity of cabins on Semi Detached Point reflects an historic association with mining families from Helensburgh who first built on this hill; hence the alternative name for this area, Burgh Hill. The location of the 28 cabins on and near the headland at the northern end of Burning Palms Beach reflects a period when cabins were moved from behind Burning Palms Beach with the creation of Garawarra State Park in 1934. A cabin is a particular type of residence that is between a hut and a cottage in size and is usually associated with temporary accommodation as a coastal weekender. Typical RNP coastal cabins are one or two room single level structures constructed with a light timber frame with either asbestos cement, corrugated iron or weatherboard external cladding; often with an unlined interior. Roofs are usually of a gable form, often with a skillion portion over an enclosed verandah. The roofs are usually clad in corrugated iron and are often unlined internally. A number of the cabins are an unusual design and construction, some utilising local stone and other recycled and locally found materials that have distinctive aesthetic qualities that express highly individualised design tastes. Many cabins contain technology dating to the 1930s, including kerosene fridges and stoves. In addition to the traditional form of the cabins, other traditional vernacular features include the external expression of an enclosure for fuel stove cookers, bucket shower enclosures and a pit toilet nearby. Notwithstanding current regulations prohibiting the use of local wood and the advent of modern technologies such as LPG cooking and solar lighting, many cabins deliberately retain examples of these earlier societal technologies as part of a cabin heritage experience and for passing down the knowledge to subsequent generations. Within the settings of many cabins are beer bottle retaining walls, toilets, fireplaces and washing lines and introduced plants such as aloe and oleander. The lack of fencing and roads make a distinctive aesthetic for groupings of buildings of such numbers. The isolated locations of these communities that required material to be carried in and the nature of tenure has meant that cabins have been constructed and repaired with a wide variety of recycled materials and materials found on site (e.g. driftwood, flotsam and local stone). The exposed coastal location necessitates continual ongoing repair and maintenance, further enhancing the eclectic character of cabin fabric. Whilst the curtilage for their heritage listing
Agnes Woodward (January 1872 — June 1938) was an American music educator and professional whistler, founder and head of the California School of Artistic Whistling in Los Angeles, California. Early life Anna Agnes Woodward was born in Waterloo, New York and raised in Tecumseh, Michigan, the daughter of Charles Meredyth Woodward and Martha McGlashan Woodward. Her father was a military surgeon and veteran of the American Civil War. She trained as a singer at the Detroit Conservatory of Music. Actress and screenwriter Bess Meredyth was her first cousin. Career Woodward sang with the Whalom Opera Company briefly as a young woman. She moved to California with her widowed mother and studied birdsong to develop her own "Bird Method" of teaching whistling, and opened the California School of Artistic Whistling in 1909, with branches later opening in Glendale, Seattle, Yakima, Chicago, and Portland. Her school's prospectus laid out her belief that "There is an art of whistling which belongs to the higher musical accomplishments, and which, in the majority of cases, falls to the lot of the young woman." Most of her students were young women, including Helen Porter, whose father was the mayor of Los Angeles. But she taught men and women of all ages; she trained actor John Wayne and singers Bing Crosby and Pat Boone as whistlers. By 1916 she was managing the tours of several of her more successful students, including Margaret Gray McKee, Gertrude Willey, Nina Kellogg, Felice Jung, Mary Louise Hand, and Shirley Irvine. In 1918 Agnes Woodward and her "Forty Whistling Girls" entertained at a Red Cross benefit in Los Angeles, adding "Over There" to their program for the occasion. She wrote a textbook on the subject, Whistling as an Art, published in 1923, with later editions in 1925 and 1938.

(es), and Carlos Manuel Sada Solana (es). On 5 March 2018, the STF minister José Celso de Mello Filho agreed to transfer González Valencia to the Federal Penitentiary of Mossoró (pt) from the Regional Superintendence of the Federal Police in Ceará. When the request was initially denied months prior, the Federal Police asked the STF to reconsider the application. The STF looked at the evidence presented and approved the transfer after considering that the federal penitentiary had better security measures, especially during night time, and that there was vacancy for him. On 16 October 2018, the United States Department of State, Justice, and Treasury announced a joint law enforcement measure against the CJNG, and publicized previously sealed indictments from the United States District Court for the District of Columbia accusing González Valencia of being involved in international drug trafficking. Through the Narcotics Rewards Program, the U.S. government confirmed they were offering up to US$5 million for information that led to his arrest. According to sealed court files under federal judge Beryl A. Howell, González Valencia participated in the distribution of 5 kg (11 lb) or more of cocaine from Mexico and elsewhere for illegal importation into the U.S. from 2006 to 2016. If convicted, the indictment stated that González Valencia would have to forfeit the proceeds he made from the violation. On 11 December 2018, Celso de Mello approved his extradition process, and he was finally extradited on the 10th of November 2021.

in a few hours. Higher stability of the molecular catalyst may be achieved using robust clathrochelate ligands that stabilize high oxidation states of iron and prevent rapid degradation of the catalyst. The number and stereochemistry of reactive coordination sites on Fe have been evaluated but few guidelines have emerged. Iridium complexes The complexes [Ir(ppy)2(OH2)2]+ (ppy = 2-phenylpyridine) exhibit high turnover numbers, but low catalytic rates. Replacing ppy with Cp* (C5Me5) results in increased catalytic activity but decreased the turnover number. Water nucleophilic attack on Ir=O species was found to be responsible for the O2 formation. Heterogeneous catalysis Iridium oxide is a stable bulk WOC catalyst with low overpotential. Ni-based oxide film liberates oxygen in quasi-neutral conditions at an overpotential of ~425 mV and shows long lasting stability. X-ray spectroscopy revealed the presence of di-µ-oxide bridging between NiIII/NiIV ions but no evidence of mono-µ-oxide bridging was found between the ions. Similar structures can be found in Co-WOC films and Mn-WOC catalysts. Cobalt oxides (Co3O4) have been investigated to work on the same pattern as other cobalt salts. Cobalt phosphates are also active WOCs at neutral pH. Stable and highly active WOCs can be prepared by adsorbing CoII on silica nanoparticles. The spinel compounds are also very efficient in oxidizing water. When nanodimensional spinels are coated over the carbon materials hydrothermally, followed by a further reduction, can exhibit high efficiency in splitting the water electrochemically.

The Clyde Brigade was a Scottish infantry formation of Britain's Volunteer Force from 1888 to 1902. Origins The enthusiasm for the Volunteer movement following an invasion scare in 1859 saw the creation of many Rifle Volunteer units composed of part-time soldiers eager to supplement the Regular British Army in time of need. The Stanhope Memorandum of 1888 proposed a comprehensive Mobilisation Scheme for Volunteer units, which would assemble in their own brigades at key points in case of war. In peacetime these brigades provided a structure for collective training. Under this scheme a number of Volunteer Battalions in Southern Scotland would assemble together at Glasgow as the Clyde Brigade. Organisation From 1888 the Clyde Brigade had the following composition: 1st Volunteer Battalion, Royal Scots Fusiliers 2nd Volunteer Battalion, Royal Scots Fusiliers 1st Lanarkshire Rifle Volunteers (a Volunteer Battalion of the Cameronians (Scottish Rifles)) 2nd Volunteer Battalion, Scottish Rifles 3rd Lanarkshire Rifle Volunteer Corps (a Volunteer Battalion of the Scottish Rifles) 4th Volunteer Battalion, Scottish Rifles 5th Volunteer Battalion, Scottish Rifles 1st Volunteer Battalion, Highland Light Infantry 2nd Volunteer Battalion, Highland Light Infantry 3rd (Blythswood) Volunteer Battalion, Highland Light Infantry 9th Lanarkshire Rifle Volunteer Corps (a Volunteer Battalion of the Highland Light Infantry) 5th (Glasgow Highland) Volunteer Battalion, Highland Light Infantry 1st (Renfrewshire) Volunteer Battalion, Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders 2nd (Renfrewshire) Volunteer Battalion, Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders 3rd (Renfrewshire) Volunteer Battalion, Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders 5th Volunteer Battalion, Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders 1st Dumbarton Rifle Volunteer Corps (a Volunteer Battalion of the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders) Supply Detachment, Army Service Corps The Brigade Headquarters (HQ) was at 137 St Vincent Street, Glasgow, and the brigade commander was Colonel Sir William Cuninghame, VC, appointed 17 October 1888. Reorganisation With a total of 17 battalions this brigade was larger than most VIBs and in 1890 it was split into two, the Volunteer Battalions of the Royal Scots Fusiliers and Argyll & Sutherland Highlanders continuing in the Clyde Brigade, while the Scottish Rifles and Highland Light Infantry formed a separate Glasgow Brigade. Sir William Cuninghame went to command the Glasgow Brigade and was succeeded in command of the Clyde Brigade by Col Sir Donald Matheson, commanding officer of the 1st Lanarkshire Engineer Volunteer Corps and Honorary Colonel of the Clyde Division, Engineer Volunteers, Submarine Division. The new HQ of the Clyde Brigade was at 142 West George Street, Glasgow. Sir Donald Matheson resigned in

of Warsaw and Bydgoszcz's integration into the Kingdom of Prussia, the former college housed anew a German, classical royal gymnasium (1817–1878). In 1879, buildings were purchased by the city to become the seat of the city authorities. The design of the reconstruction works to fit the city assembly was realized by councilor Wilhelm Lincke with brick master Albert Rose and carpenter Heinrich Mautz. This renovation, apart from changing the façade style, modified also the internal layout of the rooms, adapting it to the needs of the office. The unveiling ceremony of the mayor's precincts took place on 19 December 1879. As a result of the succeeding reconstructions of 1697–1702 and during the 19th century, the building has lost its original Baroque character. The current edifice is made of brick and plaster. It has a basement plus two stories: its footprint is an elongated rectangle with two avant-corps with a side wing behind the eastern frontage. Elevations on the square reflect neo-classicism, with eclectic stucco motifs. Some rooms are barrel vaulted. The main entrance may appear modest for such an edifice, the main reason being that the building was never supposed to be visible directly from the square: only the successive demolitions of 1940 made it accessible via the marketplace. From 1994 to 1996, a major overhaul occurred, together with a modernization and an extension of the eastern side wing. On 19 April 2017 a clock was unveiled on the facade of the building. Bydgoszcz town hall has been listed on the Kuyavian-Pomeranian Voivodeship Heritage List (Nr.A/309/1) since 1992. Two plaques can be noticed on the walls of the city hall: on the northern side, a commemoration of the 600th anniversary of the foundation of Bydgoszcz, 1346–1946 (unveiled in 1996); on the eastern wall, a plaque celebrating the anniversary of the liberation of the city from Nazi occupation (1950). Outdoor monumentsMonument to Struggle and Martyrdom of the Bydgoszcz Land ()In order to commemorate the public executions carried out by Nazis in 1939, also called Bydgoszcz Bloody Sunday, the City Council funded, in 1946, the realization of a first memorial located in front of the town hall on the Old Market Square: it was a black granite slab, lying on a low plinth, where was engraved a cross and the following dedication: Sanctified by the Martyr's Blood of Poles Fighting for Freedom. The author was Piotr Triebler, a sculptor from Bydgoszcz. This

at one point, a majority in both houses of the Colorado General Assembly. While there was not a lot of tangible violence as a result of the Ku Klux Klan's control, there was prevailing anti-Semitic, anti-Catholic, and anti-black rhetoric, and organized boycotts of their businesses. West Colfax remained majority Jewish from the 1920s until the 1950s. In the 1940s, after an effective antibiotic to cure tuberculosis was discovered and the number of deaths dropped dramatically, the sanitariums in the city and state slowly shrunk their operations or gradually switched to another medical focus. By the 1950s, the Jewish community of the West Side was beginning to spread out to other areas, most notably the East Side, and later, suburbs. While the Hebrew Educational Alliance school was established in 1920, the 1950s and 1960s saw the opening of the Hillel Academy, Beth Jacob High School for Girls (a Bais Yaakov), and Yeshiva Toras Chaim. In 1975, the Center for Judaic Studies at the University of Denver was founded by Dr. Stanley M. Wagner. The Jewish population of Denver was estimated to be between 23,500 and 30,000 in 1968, and roughly 40,000 in the 1970s as more and more of the community moved into the suburbs. From 1978 to 1983, the Denver Jewish community was home to a pioneering program that streamlined conversion for Reform, Conservative, and Orthodox candidates in order to ensure that all conversions would be recognized as valid community-wide. When the program was ended in 1983, largely due to the Reform movement's decision to recognize people of patrilineal Jewish descent as Jews for religious purposes, it caused great controversy in Denver and beyond. In 1984, outspoken and controversial Jewish radio host Alan Berg was killed by white supremacists in Denver. Modern community In 2007, the Jewish population of the Denver-Boulder metro area was about 83,900. A 2013 study estimated the state's Jewish population to be 92,000, with over three quarters of the community living in Denver. There is still an active Haredi community in the West Side who follow Litvak/Lithuanian Jewish tradition, as well as a vibrant Modern Orthodox community, and many Reform and Conservative congregations. The area has 25 active synagogues, including BMH-BJ, the largest Modern Orthodox congregation in Denver which was also the last remaining Orthodox Union (OU) affiliated synagogue to have services with no mechitzah, meaning men and women could sit together, until it resigned from

Ashina Buzhen was a member of the ruling caste of the Western Turks. He was appointed khagan by Emperor Gaozong of the Tang dynasty after the conquest of the Western Turks. His fierce rivalry with his cousin, Ashina Mishe, was instrumental in driving the Western Turks away from the Tang and into allegiance with the Tibetan Empire. Life Buzhen was a member of the ruling caste of the Western Turks. According to modern Turkish historian Ahmet Taşağıl, he was a descendant of Istemi. After the Western Turks were conquered by the Chinese Tang dynasty his younger cousin Mishe was created khagan in 632. Angered by this, Buzhen attacked Mishe in 639 and killed 20 people including several of Mishe's brothers and nephews. Consequently, Mishe submitted to the Tang, fearing for his life. Buzhen declared himself Yabghu (khagan) of the Dulu tribes (咄陆叶护) but was not accepted by the Dulu. Having lost prestige, he too submitted to Tang. Buzhen participated in the Tang-Goguryeo war in 645 and the Battle of Irtysh River where Tang armies defeated Ashina Helu. In 657 he was appointed Jiwangjue Khagan () to rule over five Western Turkic tribes by Emperor Gaozong. In 659 he participated in a campaign alongside Mishe against rival claimant to the title of khagan, Zhenzhu Yabgu, near Shuanghe. in 662 Gaozong sent the general Su Haizheng (蘇海政) to attack Qiuzi and ordered Buzhen and Mishe to assist him. Buzhen, continuing his rivalry with Mishe, falsely informed Su that Mishe was preparing to rebel and would attack the Tang army; Su responded by ambushing Mishe, killing him and his chief assistants. Shunishi chief Chupan (鼠尼施處半啜) and Basaigan chief Tong Ishbara (拔塞幹暾沙鉢俟斤), angry over Ashina Mishe's death, turned away from Tang and submitted to the Tibetan Empire instead. When Buzhen died in 667, Tang influence in the region was greatly reduced.

attempted a "Piper's Pit" on Nikki, only for Brie to interfere. Rousey then performed the modified Samoan Drop on both Nikki and Brie for a near-fall. In the climax, Nikki performed the "Rack Attack 2.0" on Rousey for a nearfall. While Nikki was on the middle rope, Rousey performed a "Small Package driver" on Nikki and applied an armbar on Nikki, who submitted, to retain the title. Aftermath On the October 29 episode of Raw, it was announced that Raw Women's Champion Ronda Rousey would face off against SmackDown Women's Champion Becky Lynch at Survivor Series as part of the annual interbrand competition. Later that same evening, Nia Jax defeated Ember Moon after a distraction by Tamina, leading to a staredown between Tamina and Jax. After defeating Moon in a rematch the following week, Jax joined Tamina in attacking Moon, turning Jax into a villainess and establishing an alliance with Tamina. At Survivor Series, Jax was victorious for Team Raw as the lone survivor in the women's elimination match after pushing her teammate, Sasha Banks, into Asuka. On the November 19 episode of Raw, Jax's Raw Women's Championship match was confirmed to happen at TLC: Tables, Ladders & Chairs. After losing to Becky Lynch at Evolution, Charlotte Flair received an offer from SmackDown General Manager Paige on the October 30 episode of SmackDown, being asked to captain Team SmackDown in the women's elimination match, only for Charlotte to turn down the offer. Charlotte instead became Lynch's replacement in a match against Raw Women's Champion Ronda Rousey at the event, as Lynch suffered a legit injury just days prior to Survivor Series. On the November 7 episode of NXT, it was announced that Kairi Sane would be invoking her rematch clause and would face NXT Women's Champion Shayna Baszler in a two-out-of-three-falls match at NXT TakeOver: WarGames. Future all-female events In a conference call for June 2021's NXT TakeOver: In Your House event, Triple H was questioned on if WWE would ever hold another all-female event. He said it was possible, "but it's not a must-have at the moment." He also found it odd that people thought that doing more all-female events would mean equality for the women's division, but cited the contradiction in that WWE would be criticized if they would run an all-male event; essentially, separate does not mean equal. He also responded to something that former WWE wrestler

rocky bluffs and the construction of Gloucester Boulevard. Heritage listing Hill 60 and its environs (MM Beach, Boilers Point, Fisherman's Beach and Hill 60 Park) contains a rare suite of Aboriginal sites which demonstrate the evolving pattern of Aboriginal cultural history and the Aboriginal land rights struggle. The quality, extent and diversity of the prehistoric archaeological remains at this place are rare on the NSW coast particularly in the local region. These include extensive shell midden deposits rich in stone artifacts and burials. There is demonstrated cultural affiliation with the place by the Aboriginal community, through near continuous occupation of the place, a history of struggle to gain land tenure and ongoing association and use of the place. The historic Aboriginal occupation was characterised by a relatively isolated and self sufficient Aboriginal community that participated in the economic maintenance of the wider community by the provision of labour to local industry and produce (seafood's) at a commercial level. The people also maintained a culturally distinct Aboriginal lifestyle firmly based on the maintenance of family connections over the wider region and traditional economic practices. Hill 60 was listed on the New South Wales State Heritage Register on 14 December 2001 having satisfied the following criteria. The place is important in demonstrating the course, or pattern, of cultural or natural history in New South Wales. The Wadi Wadi Aboriginal community of the south coast region, which includes people who were born and lived in the study area prior to forced removal , have consistently and persistently asserted their cultural affiliation to the place. A highly successful Aboriginal fishing enterprise was established at the Hill in the late 1800s supplying the local and Sydney market. The Hill was used as a fish-spotting lookout providing direction for the boats and netting operation below at Fisherman's Beach. This practice continued a traditional fishing method common along the south coast to the present. The area of Hill 60 and MM Beach was an area on the southern coast of NSW that saw the prolonged struggle of the Aboriginal community to remain on traditional lands. The struggle was characterised by: 1. A relatively isolated and economically self-supporting Aboriginal community that maintained good neighbor relations and participated in the wider community. This was achieved by the provision of labour (in local steelworks and other industry) and produce (supply of prawns, fish and shellfish on a commercial basis), and

a developed autonominity." On September 13, 1978, the UN's Decolonization Committee issued a resolution recognizing the viability of free association to solve the status of Puerto Rico. Under the presidency of Carlos Romero Barceló, the PNP published a booklet titled El ABC de la estadidad (lit. "The ABC of Statehood") which defined free association as an "Associated Republic", claiming that it defied "all Federal laws, agencies, jurisdiction and appointments" and that it asked for block funding so that "[the PPD] could take their share as they want". By using the word "Republic", the PNP intended to link the concept to independence, an option that they were in turn linking to the Soviet Union and other communist countries. On January 29, 1985, the Commission for the Study of Puerto Rico's Constitutional Development of the Bar Association of Puerto Rico studied the free association compacts of Marshall Islands and the Federated States of Micronesia. The group determined that those compacts could be modified to adjust to Puerto Rico's case. On April 11, 1989, senator Marco Antonio Rigau officially presented a free association proposal to the PPD's Government Board (Spanish: Junta de Gobierno). On April 24, 1989, Hernández Colón dismissed the project, claiming that it did not represent the Board's position nor his own in a press conference held at La Fortaleza. Within the PPD, the project's opposers accused Rigau of forcing a form of independence or "associated republic". The president of the PR House of Representatives, conservative Rony Jarabo, echoed Hernández Colón and supported his position that the party had already approved the territorial Commonwealth by approving the governor's proposal in the party's Government Programme. Rigau asked the conservative leadership to analyze the content with neutrality and defended his project, claiming that it was well thought, taking five years to draft and that it received a warm reception in Washington. Hernández Colón led the Board's consideration of the proposal on April 30, 1989, presenting his own proposal supporting a territorial development of the Commonwealth, which pursued a form of "permanent union" with the United States. The day before, Hernández Colón had participated in a reunion along other members of the party's conservative wing, during which he shredded the copy of the free association project that was provided to him, also ordering a veto on Rigau's intentions to individually seek supporters in Washington. In a subsequent interview with José Delgado, Hernández Colón dismissed

Heritage listing As at 15 March 2006, West Maling has a high level of aesthetic significance at a state level as one of the purest examples of the Queen Anne style of architecture existing today and it is thought to be the first of its type of residence built in Australia. Its significance is enhanced by its retention internally and externally of virtually all the original joinery, its original driveways and part of its original gardens. It has historical associations with Albert Bythesea Weigall, the first headmaster of Sydney Grammar School, having been built in 1889 for his residence. The site has acquired social significance at a local level for its continued use by the Revival Life Centre as a church since the 1980s and prior to this time its use as a monastery.

"Midnight by the Morphy Watch" is a horror fiction story about chess, written by American author Fritz Leiber. It was first published in If, in July 1974. The story is one of a series of works by Leiber whose settings are places that he inhabited, and whose protagonists are based on himself. Synopsis When amateur chessplayer Stirf Ritter-Rebil (a "quasi-anagrammatic" version of "Fritz Reuter Leiber") purchases the custom-made pocket watch which once belonged to Paul Morphy, his own chess skills are supernaturally boosted — but he also begins to experience side effects. Reception "Midnight by the Morphy Watch" was a finalist for the 1975 Hugo Award for Best Novelette, and was ranked ninth in the 1975 Locus Award for Best Short Story. Mike Ashley called it "chilling". References Works originally published in If (magazine) Works by Fritz Leiber Short stories about chess
Queen Anne style evidenced. It is therefore likely to be a copy of an English residence. The work of British Architect Norman Shaw is likely to have influenced its design. Constructed in a warm brick in English bond, it is a particularly attractive two storey residence featuring steeply pitched slate roofs, ornate brick chimneys, stained glass windows and Tudor influenced battening. The gable ends are of timber and stucco. The verandah features timber posts with ornamental brackets and the chimneys rising high above the high gabled roof are a dominant feature. Admission to the house is through a massive cedar panelled front door set into a sandstone arch with Gothic flutings. The entry porch is decorated with mosaic artistry. Interior doors are between three and four inches thick and have arched heads set into inverted arch architraves which are said to appear more Medieval than Elizabethan. A pair of stained-glass Inglenook windows date the building to AD 1889. The ballroom retains the original set of six stained-glass windows depicting English poets and essayists: Geoffrey Chaucer, William Shakspeare (sic), John Milton, John Bunyan, Edmund Spicer and Francis Bacon. Facing these windows is a low dais on which musicians once performed. This room in later years became a chapel. The joinery includes carved cedar mantelpieces, the one in the dining room having a carved panel bearing a crest and the motto "Semper Fidelis" (always faithful), and some rooms have pressed metal ceilings. Internally and externally virtually all the original joinery remains. Of particular interest is the pointed arch shape to the top of the doors and the fireplaces and inglenook in the living room. Chapel (1983): Underground structure with roof top car parking. Concrete construction coloured deep brown to tone in with house. Galleries bring its seating capacity to 400. Condition As at 8 February 2006, the setting modified significantly by 1982 underground chapel and above-roof parking, and additional car parking to the south-west (rear) of the house/property. Several trees removed. Internally and externally virtually all the original joinery remains as do the original driveways and gardens.

North Sea for trials. She then embarked a contingent of trainees and began a short training cruise to Danzig and Karlskrona, Sweden on 12 July, which ended in Kiel. On 25 July, a longer-distance cruise to South America and the Caribbean Sea began. During the voyage, she stopped in Bahía Blanca, Argentina on 24 September. She went to Port-au-Prince, Haiti, in response to domestic unrest there. She arrived on 29 October and remained until 16 November, when she left to go to Jacmel, where she picked up 250 civilians and carried them to Kingston, Jamaica. Freya returned to Port-au-Prince on 16 December, and since the government had by then suppressed the rebels, Freya was able to continue her cruise in January 1884. She visited Puerto Cabello, Venezuela, Bermuda, and Hampton Roads, United States. On arriving back in German waters, she joined the annual fleet maneuvers on 1 September, which were conducted in the North and Baltic Seas. After the maneuvers ended, Freya returned to Kiel on 21 September and continued on to Danzig six days later, where she disembarked the trainees. The ship was decommissioned for an overhaul on 11 October, which lasted until late 1887. During this period, her rigging was reduced to that of a barque. The ship was recommissioned on 23 October 1887 for trials, after which she went to Kiel and then Wilhelmshaven, where she arrived on 22 December. On 17 January 1888 she was decommissioned there; she did not see further active use, which was unusual given that she had just been overhauled. The naval historians Hans Hildebrand, Albert Röhr, and Hans-Otto Steinmetz speculated that because the corvette , which had been built specifically as a training ship, had entered service by that time, the Admiralität decided that Freya was redundant. In late 1893, Freya was transferred to the list of harbor ships, and she was stricken from the naval register altogether on 14 December 1896. She was thereafter broken up in Kiel.

Aurelia Community School District was a school district headquartered in Aurelia, Iowa. It was mostly in Cherokee County, with a section in Buena Vista County. In 1989, it began a whole grade-sharing arrangement, in which one district sends certain grade levels to another district's schools, with the Alta Community School District. However this agreement ended in 1996, and the Iowa Association of School Boards stated that the previous arrangement and its outcome resulted in "some community members [being] offended". In 2010, Aurelia and Alta resumed sharing athletic teams. A new grade-sharing arrangement with Alta began in 2011. Both districts had their elementary schools, with Aurelia hosting the middle school and Alta hosting the high school. The shared Alta–Aurelia superintendent, Lynn Evans, stated that only secondary classes were grade-shared as they were more expensive to teach than primary classes.

Red Dart is the name of different characters appearing in comic books published by DC Comics. A female version of Red Dart appeared on the seventh season of The CW Arrowverse show Arrow, played by actress Holly Elissa. Fictional character biography Jonathan Mallory Jonathan "Midas" Mallory is a man who has been going around stopping crimes in Star City. This attracted the attention of Green Arrow and Speedy. They didn't know it yet, but Red Dart is secretly in allegiance with some gold thieves. The next night, Green Arrow deduced the truth about Red Dart where he and Speedy captured him and the gold thieves. Green Arrow proved Red Dart's allegiance to the gold thieves by removing one of Mallory's gloves to reveal gold stains which is a tell-tale sign of testing gold with Aqua-Regia. Red Dart later plotted to assassinate Green Arrow by using a booby trap at the time he was going to speak at an engagement in Dallas, Texas. This plan fails because Atom shows up instead. He teams up with Air Wave to defeat Red Dart. When Red Dart tries to beam up to the Justice League's satellite, he is instead taken away by another teleportation beam. Anthony When the Justice League arrived in Belle Reve to deal with the prison riots, a minor criminal named Anthony who calls himself Red Dart steals Green Lantern's power ring during his fight with the Color Queens prison gang (consisting of Crazy Quilt, Doctor Light, Doctor Spectro, Multi-Man, and Rainbow Raider) where he plans to give it to someone on the Green Mile and then return it to Green Lantern. When Superman reclaims the power ring from Red Dart as the prison riot is being quelled, Red Dart privately remarks that this is probably the coolest thing he will ever do knowing that he will be partly responsible for the death of Superman. When Red Dart is back in his cell with nothing but a picture of Green Lantern's power ring, he wonders what his employers wanted as it is secretly revealed that his employers are Lex Luthor and Prometheus who are forming the next incarnation of the Injustice Gang. Their temporary theft of the ring somehow allowed them to sabotage it so that Green Lantern couldn't use it, but it is later revealed that this was under the influence of the universe-destroyed weapon Mageddon, with Green Lantern eventually

Savage Sinusoid is the third album by Gautier Serre, under his alias Igorrr, released on Metal Blade Records on June 16, 2017. Background Igorrr signed with Metal Blade Records in early 2017. The album was preceded by the singles "ieuD", "Opus Brain", and "Cheval". Unlike previous albums, the album did not feature any samples. Travis Ryan from the band Cattle Decapitation guests on three tracks. Serre cited Taraf de Haïdouks, Cannibal Corpse and Aphex Twin as inspiration for the album. Critical reception The album received critical acclaim. Metal Injection, as well as giving it a perfect 10/10 score, named it the "Batshit Crazy Album of the Year". They concluded in their review, "Igorrr is a project with no boundaries, and the personal belief of creating the art one wants to. In a world where we argue from the mainstream radio to the underground scene, Igorrr is a breath of fresh air. Savage Sinusoid isn’t just a breath of fresh air in musical technicality and emotion though, but an excellent reminder to just enjoy music." Additionally, they ranked the album 9th on their year end rankings of every album. Allmusic stated " Serre's fusion of acoustic and electronic instruments is tighter and more refined than ever, and while Savage Sinusoid sounds unmistakably like an Igorrr album, he hasn't come close to sounding predictable yet." Dom Lawson of Metal Hammer wrote, "Igorrr exist in a world where borders between genres are non-existent and anything is possible, albeit with a preference for being wildly unpredictable", and saw "much subtlety offsetting the shifts of pace and mood and some spellbinding moments of serene but subversive finesse", concluding: "If only more metal records were this barmy."

kitchen, dining room and living room added to the east. Externally the detail of the veranda has been continued. The front stair is to the eastern end of the building, in contrast to the now demolished Croissy where it was central. AlthoughThe Chalet appears similar in form to colonial Georgian buildings, it was not necessarily specifically designed for Australian conditions and may have been a picturesque "Swiss Cottage" or "Bavarian Cottage" popular in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth century. The London Suburb of Swiss Cottage records such decorative buildings. The entrance hall is at one end of the building, a feature not usually found in colonial Georgian bungalows. Mid nineteenth century American pattern books contain examples of carpenter gothic buildings with double valences and verandas, frequently to more than one elevation. The Chalet is less substantial than a traditional Swiss Chalet, which was usually raised up above the ground to allow for storage areas on the lower level. The timber components were reputedly numbered with "code markings like roman numerals" as was common practice. Dowel fixings were used. The extent to which evidence of this construction has survived has not been determined. Photographs of the exterior of the building show that the prefabrication is evident in the sidewalls. The veranda appears to have its own structure, with cross bracing to the supporting posts and into the front walls of the house, an unusual detail for Australia. The outer layer of fretwork to the veranda conceals the ends of the rafters, a practical detail that protects them from water entry. The cosy dining room with its corner fireplace was (in the Heysen period) overlaid with a patina of form and patterns - New Guinea carvings, including the beautiful bowl painted in "The Flower Ship" (1945); fruit, quinces, pomegranates, persimmons, pears enjoyed as much for shape, colour and texture as taste; "Art in Australia" magazines; paintings by fellow artists and, in the centre of the round cedar table, always a low bowl of mixed flowers - whatever took Nora's fancy each morning. Tropical shells adorned the spacious old sunlit bathroom with its black and white tiled floor. Paintings were stacked in the front hall and around the walls of Heysen's studio. A sandstone outbuilding is situated in the gardens with timber joinery and a hipped corrugated iron roof. Condition As at 20 October 2004, the place has been in known European
The Gun Salute (Dutch - Het kanonschot) is an oil on canvas painting by Willem van de Velde the Younger, created c. 1680, showing a ship of the Dutch navy firing a gun salute. It and its pendant work The Gust of Wind (De windstoot) were painted after his arrival in England around 1672, where he later succeeded his father as court painter to Charles II of England. The two works remained together for a long while and by the 18th century had joined Sir Philip Stephens's collection. In 1834 the Amsterdam-based banker and collector Adriaan van der Hoop bought The Gun Salute at auction. He believed it portrayed De Zeven Provinciën, flagship of the Dutch naval hero Michiel de Ruyter - de Ruyter had a high opinion of van de Velde and even fired cannon for him to allow him to study the light effects this produced. However, this identification has now been refuted. In 1845, van der Hoop lent the painting to an old masters' exhibition- in a review of the exhibition the art critic Alexander Oltmans gave it its present title. It was initially assigned to the Museum van der Hoop, before being transferred to the Rijksmuseum in 1885 - The Gust of Wind is also in the Rijksmuseum collection.

99designs is a Melbourne, Australia, based company that operates a freelancer platform for connecting graphic designers and clients. The company was founded in 2008, and has a United States office in Oakland, California. History 99designs was founded by Matt Mickiewicz and Mark Harbottle as a spin-off of Sitepoint, a website started in 1998 as a forum for web developers and designers. Designers on its forums began organizing contests based on fictional client briefs. The founders decided to test charging a fee to post briefs for real projects, eventually creating 99designs as a separate company for the contests. In 2008, the company opened a San Francisco office, because the majority of the platform's initial clients and designers were in the United States. It later moved its U.S. headquarters to Oakland, California. By 2012, the site had 175,000 designers in 192 countries. By 2016, it had about one million registered designers. The platform was later redesigned to allow customers to directly search for and hire designers, outside of design competitions. In 2012, the company acquired a European competitor called 12designer, based in Germany. Its office became the European headquarters of 99designs. In 2013, the company acquired LogoChef, a Brazilian competitor. In 2017, the company relocated back to Melbourne. The company was acquired in October 2020 by Cimpress. Financials In 2011, the company received US$35 million in financing from Accel Partners and other investors. It subsequently raised another $10 million in 2015. The company became profitable in 2017, and in February 2018 reported $60 million a year in revenue.

sprayed the perimeter with machine gun fire, lifting it from time to time through the night as more PVA moved forward to attack. Each assault was turned back in close fighting. The 5th Infantry Regiment, arriving from the south around dawn, broke up the last force of PVA to approach the perimeter. The defending forces lost two killed and twenty wounded during the repeated attacks. PVA losses were 300 killed, an estimated 250 wounded and 450 captured. Other PVA groups in battalion strength attempted to punch their way north out of the trap during the early morning of 27 May, but were knocked back by the forces blocking the way in the Chiam-ni area. After these failures there were no more organized efforts to escape, only confused clumps of PVA moving around in search of a way out. While the 17th and 21st Regiments turned north to join the general Corps' advance, mop-up operations by the 5th Infantry and ROK 19th Regiment, 6th Division raised the prisoner toll to around two thousand. During a final sweep of the area by the 5th Infantry on 28 May, PVA taken captive, many of whom surrendered in large groups, brought the total to nearly 38,000. Action in the general Corps' advance was concentrated along Route 17 where PVA fought hard to hold open the Hwacheon town-Hwacheon Reservoir escape route for the columns moving northwest out of the ground below the reservoir. Rain and heavy clouds that had kept aircraft on the ground finally lightened in the afternoon of 27 May, allowing air strikes along with artillery fire to take a heavy count of the PVA scurrying to get above Hwacheon. The 17th Infantry meanwhile fought up Route 17 through stubborn resistance and entered Hwacheon at 14:00, but a division of the PVA 20th Army blocked the regiment's attempts to advance north of town and east toward the reservoir. The ROK 6th Division moving up on the right out of the Chuncheon area met no opposition, but advanced only a few miles through the rough ground below the western reaches of the reservoir. Much of the PVA/KPA's gateway to safety thus remained open. On 28 May air observers reported the ground below the reservoir all but empty of PVA/KPA forces, and the ROK 6th Division's move to the lake's western edge confirmed the PVA escape. The division of the 20th Army deployed north and
"Uncomfortable" is a song by American hard rock band Halestorm from their fourth studio album, Vicious. The song was written by Lzzy and Arejay Hale, alongside Josh Smith and Joe Hottinger. It was recorded at Rock Falcon Studios in Nashville with producer Nick Raskulinecz. The song was released on May 30, 2018 as the album's lead single, through Atlantic Records. "Uncomfortable" is a pop metal track with elements of speed metal and hard rock. The lyrics, delivered rapid-fire by Lzzy Hale, were inspired by her own struggles with trying to please other people, and call the listener to focus on what makes them happy. The song received generally positive reviews from music critics, who praised the energy and technical construction of the track, and received a nomination for Best Rock Performance at the 61st Annual Grammy Awards. It also had a strong commercial performance, appearing on the US Hot Rock & Alternative Songs chart at number 28 and the US Rock Airplay chart at number 17. Background and composition Halestorm released their third studio album Into the Wild Life on April 14, 2015. This was followed by 2017's Reanimate 3.0: The Covers EP, produced by Nick Raskulinecz. When the band commenced work on their next album, they wrote and discarded 15 songs. Lead vocalist and guitarist Lzzy Hale was unhappy with the initial material; fearing that she was "paying way too much attention making everybody happy". Halestorm reunited with Raskulinecz for a series of jam sessions at his Nashville recording studio, Rock Falcon. "Uncomfortable" was the first song written for what would become Vicious. The song was written by band members Lzzy and Arejay Hale, Joe Hottinger, and Josh Smith. Musically, "Uncomfortable" is a pop metal track, with elements of speed metal and hard rock. It is written in the key of C major at a tempo of 119 beats per minute. Lead guitarist Hottinger told Classic Rock that the main riff was written as "a joke", and kept at Raskulinecz's urging. Lzzy Hale wrote the melody and lyrics about a month after the initial writing sessions. The lyrics are a response to Hale's earlier worries about pleasing other people, with the message being: "You can't please everyone, there's always going to be someone disappointed, so you might as well make yourself happy and Be You." The vocal melody marks a departure from the usual anthemic stylings of Halestorm, relying

Mississippi Highway 510 (MS 510) is a state highway in eastern Mississippi. The route starts at MS 145 near Shubuta and travels eastward. The road turns southward near Matherville, and the route ends southeast of the unincorporated area. The road was constructed around 1957, and majority of the road was paved by 1967. A portion of the route east of Matherville was removed from the state highway system in 1999. Route description The route is located in northern Wayne and southern Clarke counties. MS 510 is legally defined in Mississippi Code § 65-3-3, and all of it is maintained by the Mississippi Department of Transportation (MDOT), as part of the Mississippi State Highway System. MS 510 starts at a three-way junction with MS 145 south of Shubuta in Wayne County, and it travels northward towards the Wayne–Clarke county line. The road crosses the county line, and it turns east at County Road 612 (CO 612). The route enters a large area of farmland, and it crosses Carson Sand Creek. It curves northward until it reaches the Choctaw Base Line, where it begins travelling eastward again. Past CO 611, MS 510 crosses Dry Creek and Shiloh Creek. The road intersects CO 617, which leads to Langsdale. At CO 610, the route turns south towards the county line. MS 510 crosses the county line past CO 6101. The route turns southeast near L.B. Odom Drive in Matherville, and state maintenance ends southeast of the unincorporated area. The road continues as Matherville–Frost Bridge Road, which ends at U.S. Route 84 (US 84). History Around 1957, a gravel road was constructed from US 45 near Shubuta to US 84 near Waynesboro, and it was designated as MS 510. The eastern terminus was rerouted closer to the Mississippi–Alabama state line by 1962. In January 1965, a project to grade and add culverts to the road began, costing $386,157.67 (). By 1967, the majority of the route was paved, with a small section remaining in gravel near US 84. A section of the route from the beginning of the gravel section to US 84 became locally maintained by 1998, and it was removed from the state highway system by 1999. By 2001, US 45 was rerouted to a new bypass around Shubuta, with MS 510 still connected to US 45's old alignment.

a shallow draft and self-trimming hatches, to minimise the chance of touching bottom during loading and to allow quick departures to be made. Some sixty-milers in the 19th century and early 20th century were a type known as 'auxiliary steamers' that could raise triangular or trapezoidal sails on their masts. The Myola, could unfurl sails on her two tall masts and gain a knot or so of additional speed when the wind suited. The ship owners and operators This was a complicated matter; a vessel might be owned by one entity but chartered to another. The Hexham Bank may have been described as an RW Miller ship when in fact it was on charter from its actual owners McIlwraith, McEacharn & Co of Melbourne, which itself owned and operated other similarly named sixty-milers (Mortlake Bank, Pelton Bank and Hetton Bank). R.W. Miller not only chartered ships like the Hexham Bank but also owned its own ships such as the Birchgrove Park. The southern coalfield collieries (Coalcliff Collieries, etc.) owned their own ships but most of these were chartered to the Southern Coal Owner's Agency, which operated the ships. Some coal merchants, such as Jones Brothers Coal, owned their own shipsShips of course were bought and sold, and changed ownership, while still carrying coal cargoes for their new owners. Sometimes, a change in ownership also resulted in a ship's name changing, such as when Corrimal was renamed Ayrfield or when South Bulli became Abersea. There were many owners up to the middle of 20th-Century, sometimes just owning or operating on charter just one vessel. There are also numerous instances of new vessels taking the name of their predecessor (e.g. Bellambi, Wallarah, etc.). These complexities, together with the cross-ownership, mergers and takeovers that took place in the coal and coastal shipping companies, sometimes makes it hard to follow the owners and operators of particular vessels. Some operators ran not only the ships but also mines or port operations, even for some at both ends of the sixty-miler's run. A notable example was the Wallarah Coal Co, which operated Wallarah Colliery, Catherine Hill Bay jetty, and, between 1934 and 1963, the Balls Head Coal Loader. Wallarah Coal also owned two of the three mechanised coal hulks that worked on Sydney Harbour, Fortuna and Muscoota; the other one, Sampson, was owned by Bellambi Coal. Another such operator was R.W. Miller, a company that began

a Jubilee, which meant that extra indulgences were granted. The majority of pilgrims aimed to earn indulgences by visiting the grave of Saint Servatius, drinking holy water from the cup of Saint Servatius and attending at least one of the daily relics displays. No indulgences could be obtained without going to confession and doing penance. After fulfilling the requirements pilgrims received a pre-printed confessional certificate. A chaplain would fill in the name of the pilgrim and attach the seal of the church. In Maastricht the Collegiate Church of Saint Servatius had the sole right of showing relics in the open air. During the septennial pilgrimage this took place once a day at Vrijthof Square. In the 15th-century so many pilgrims gathered there, that the walls around the square had to be taken down. After celebrating an open-air mass, a selection of the church's relics were shown from the dwarf gallery, the arcaded gallery just below the apse's roof. The dwarf gallery was decorated for the occasion with cloths printed with angels and Saint Servatius' keys. The showing of the relics must have been a theatrical event during which many pilgrims were overcome with emotion. Throughout the ceremony loud cries could be heard. Some pilgrims were sitting on rooftops around Vrijthof to get a better view of the relics and to benefit from their exposure. Many took bread, meat and personal objects with them in order to be blessed by the relics. The relics were shown in four groups. Each group was announced with a formula that started with: "Thou shall be shown...", followed by a brief description of the objects and a prayer. The fixed order was: 1. the sudarium of Saint Servatius (one of the three "heavenly cloths", lost during the Siege of Maastricht of 1579) along with his crozier; 2. the red shroud of Saint Servatius along with his pilgrim's staff; 3. the white cloth that covered the sarcophagus of Saint Servatius, along with his chalice and paten; 4. the reliquary bust of Saint Servatius, the reliquary arm of Saint Thomas and the silver pectoral cross made by Saint Luke for the Virgin Mary. The pilgrims were then invited to visit the grave inside the church and see the other relics on display there. The ceremony was concluded by bell ringing and pilgrims blowing their pilgrim horns. Throughout the Middle Ages tens of thousands visited Maastricht during the

Henry Saul Zolinsky (1901–2001) was an American Objectivist poet and friend of Whittaker Chambers, Meyer Schapiro, Louis Zukofsky, and Samuel Roth. Background Henry Saul Zolinsky was born in 1901. His parents were Nathan Edward Zolinsky and Rosa Gleich. Zolinsky studied at the City College of New York (now often known as "CCNY") in the early 1920s. In early June 1923, Zolinsky interrupted his college studies to sail by ship with friend Meyer Schapiro for Rotterdam and a tour of Europe. In later June, Whittaker Chambers sailed over to Bremerhaven; the three met in Berlin and traveled together. Career At City College, Zolinsky was an editor of The Lavender, student poetry magazine. His circle of friends extended to other student poets and writers, including many from Columbia University like Louis Zukofsky, Whittaker Chambers, Meyer Schapiro, and Samuel Roth. He published Zukofsky in The Lavender. In 1929, Henry Zolinsky was working for the bookstore of Samuel Roth in New York City. On October 4, 1929, John Saxton Sumner, head of the New York Society for the Suppression of Vice or "NYSVV" (chartered by the New York State Legislature), raided a warehouse of the Golden Hind Press (owned by Samuel Roth) in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania. The warehouse held copies of Ulysses, Lady Chatterley's Lover, Fanny Hill, and others–at the time, all considered pornographic under current U.S. law. Legally, the NYSVV could not tie Roth to the warehouse, but they could and did tie Zolinsky and Roth's brother Max Roth, who were arrested at the warehouse (a distribution point near New York City). Zolinsky spent several months in jail. Zolinsky and another employee named Julius Moss also managed a bank account each for Samuel Roth in the name of "Richard Ross" so the Roth could hide profits. In late 1929 or 1930, Zolinsky, his wife, and newborn daughter came to live in Lynbrook, Long Island, with Whittaker Chambers at the home of his mother, Laha Chambers. In December 1931, Zolinsky's name appeared with those of his college friends (among them, Zukofsky and Chambers) in the famous December 1931 "Objectivist" issue of Poetry magazine. In 1940, Zolinsky's name appears in the U.S. Census as 36 years old, living in New York City with wife Mary Jane Zolinsky (32) and daughter Nancy Zolinsky (10), and earning his living as a school teacher (as did his long-time friend Zukofsky). Personal and death Around 1929, Zolinsky married Mary Elizabeth
