Point Buchon State Marine Reserve and Marine Conservation Area
thumb|500px|Reserve viewed from Point Buchon Trail thumb|Another view from Point Buchon trail, Diablo Canyon Power Plant in background thumb|Arches and sea stacks of Miguelito shale, Point Buchon Point Buchon State Marine Reserve (SMR) and Point Buchon State Marine Conservation Area (SMCA) are two adjoining marine protected areas that lie offshore Point Buchon in San Luis Obispo County on California's central coast. The combined area of these marine protected areas is . The SMR protects all marine life within its boundaries. Fishing and take of any living marine resources is prohibited. Within the SMCA fishing and take of all living marine resources is prohibited except the commercial and recreational take of salmon and albacore. History Point Buchon SMR and Point Buchon SMCA were established in September 2007 by the California Department of Fish & Game. They are two of 29 marine protected areas adopted during the first phase of the Marine Life Protection Act Initiative. The Marine Life Protection Act Initiative (or MLPAI) is a collaborative public process to create a statewide network of marine protected areas along the California coastline. Geography and natural features These two marine protected areas adjoin each other off the coast of San Luis Obispo County. The Point Buchon SMR is bounded by the mean high tide line and straight lines connecting the following points in the order listed: 35° 15.25' N. lat. 120° 54.00' W. long.; 35° 15.25' N. lat. 120° 56.00' W. long.; 35° 11.00' N. lat. 120° 52.40' W. long.; and 35° 13.30' N. lat. 120° 52.40' W. long. The Point Buchon SMCA is bounded by straight lines connecting the following points in the order listed except where noted: Point Buchon trail This 3.4 mile trail is on private land, owned by PG&E, and was opened to the public in 2007. Access is limited: see the PG&E trails website for details. Access is from the trailhead parking lot at the south end of Montana de Oro State Park. Recreation and nearby attractions Nearby Montana de Oro State Park features hiking, biking and equestrian trails. In addition to a campground, there are primitive and equestrian campsites. California's marine protected areas encourage recreational and educational uses of the ocean. Activities such as kayaking, diving, snorkeling, and swimming are allowed unless otherwise restricted. Scientific monitoring As specified by the Marine Life Protection Act, select marine protected areas along California's central coast are being monitored by scientists to track their effectiveness and learn more about ocean health. Similar studies in marine protected areas located off of the Santa Barbara Channel Islands have already detected gradual improvements in fish size and number. Local scientific and educational institutions involved in the monitoring include Stanford University's Hopkins Marine Station, University of California Santa Cruz, Moss Landing Marine Laboratories and Cal Poly San Luis Obispo. Research methods include hook-and-line sampling, intertidal and scuba diver surveys, and the use of Remote Operated Vehicle (ROV) submarines.

Whistle Stop (album)
| rev2 = DownBeat | rev2Score | rev3 = The Rolling Stone Jazz Record Guide | rev3Score | rev4 = The Penguin Guide to Jazz Recordings | rev4score }} Whistle Stop is a jazz studio album by Kenny Dorham, featuring performances by acclaimed musicians Hank Mobley, Kenny Drew, Paul Chambers and Philly Joe Jones. It was recorded in January 1961 at Van Gelder Studio, in Englewood Cliffs, and was originally released on Blue Note Records as BST 84063 and BLP 4063. "In 1975", Blumenthal states in the CD liner notes, "five British critics picked Whistle Stop as one of 200 albums that belonged in a basic library of jazz recorded after World War II". Notes about the album tracks "Philly Twist" is dedicated to Philly Joe Jones. Kenny added "There is also the play on words with filly, a young horse." "Buffalo" tries to portray a buffalo in action, whilst "Sunset" tries to represent the feeling of an imaginary sunset. "Whistle Stop" is an attempt to depict a train in motion. About "Sunrise in Mexico", Dorham says: "The skies down there (in Mexico) are low and everything looks different". "Windmill" talks about an old girlfriend of all of us, who can live by the windmill. Dorham explains that "a windmill, a weathered, gray-wood affair, is represented in the last four bars of the track". It is also a contrafact of Sweet Georgia Brown. "Dorham's Epitaph" was intended by Dorham to be a sort of musical epitaph, an "identifying song". Reception The contemporaneous DownBeat reviewer, John S. Wilson, praised the variety of compositions, but added that the written material was not extended beyond opening and closing statements, and that Dorham's solo playing was appealing but "almost invariably running thin toward the end".<ref name"DB61" />Song listing All pieces by Kenny Dorham. #"Philly Twist" - 5:39 #"Buffalo" - 7:43 #"Sunset" - 6:20 #"Whistle Stop" - 5:56 #"Sunrise in Mexico" - 5:39 #"Windmill" - 6:17 #"Dorham's Epitaph" - 1:09 Personnel *Kenny Dorham - trumpet *Hank Mobley - tenor sax *Kenny Drew - piano *Paul Chambers - double bass *Philly Joe Jones - drums References Category:1961 albums Category:Blue Note Records albums Category:Kenny Dorham albums Category:Albums produced by Alfred Lion Category:Bebop albums Category:Albums recorded at Van Gelder Studio

Stylo (song)
| recorded = 2009 | studio | genre Reggae singer Eddy Grant claimed that this song bears similarities to his 1983 song "Time Warp" stating that "I am outraged that the Gorillaz have infringed the copyright of my song Time Warp, claiming their song Stylo to be an original composition" and within weeks of its release he began consulting lawyers. Release A demo form of the track, then just a rough beat, was premiered on the Zane Lowe show on 14 January 2009, along with "Electric Shock" and "Broken". About a week before the official premiere, Parlophone president Miles Leonard described the song as "a dark, twisted track that sounds like the 'Saturday Night Fever' soundtrack on MDMA". The single was leaked onto the internet on 20 January 2010. Murdoc stated on his Twitter account, "A leak! A leak! Plastic Beach has sprung a leak! One of those Russian pirates has put a bullet hole on my island! My single's leaked! 'STYLO!'" He later added, "If anyone's going to leak my single, it'll be me!" The song's official premiere was on NME Radio that same day, shortly followed by its addition onto the Gorillaz official website. Gorillaz manager Chris Morrison said of the leak, "I just think that illegal downloading and pirating could be stopped, without a doubt. We have to take the gloves off and say it has to be stopped." On 26 January 2010 "Stylo" was released for digital download on iTunes. When the video was released, it received regular airplay on MTV and Viva. However, the video no longer received significant airplay after failing to make the Top 100 in the UK. The song was performed on the 22 April 2010 episode of The Colbert Report by members of the band. "Stylo" is a playable song in DJ Hero 2. Reception "Stylo" was met with mainly positive reviews, as well as noticed as one of the key points of the album. Pitchfork gave it a 7 out of 10, saying "There's not a Gorillaz song that can trace its lineage to one geographic place, and "Stylo" feels drawn from the time when people thought hip-hop might turn the Bronx into a borderless musical melting pot." Rolling Stone gave the song a positive 4/5 star review. It charted on the "bubbling under" chart of the Billboard Hot 100 at number 103. It was the first Gorillaz song to reach any Japanese chart, rising to number eight on the Japan Hot 100. It was also successful in Mexico where it reached number 7 on the Ingles Airplay chart. In other countries, it was near the bottom or middle of the chart. The song reached number 78 on the Triple J Hottest 100, 2010. In February 2011, music video blog Yes, We've Got a Video! ranked the song's music video at number eight in their top 30 videos of 2010. The video was praised as "awesome" and "thrilling".Live performances"Stylo" was performed live throughout the Escape to Plastic Beach world tour. Bobby Womack toured alongside Gorillaz for the duration of the tour, with Mos Def appearing for select dates. Rapper Bootie Brown, who had previously collaborated with Gorillaz on their single "Dirty Harry", frequently performed Mos Def's verses in his absence. For the Humanz Tour and the Now Now Tour, the late Bobby Womack's verses were performed by Peven Everett, who featured in the Gorillaz single "Strobelite".Music videoOn 14 December 2009, California-based newspaper Desert Dispatch reported that a Gorillaz video shoot had taken place on 12 December in Calico, a ghost town in San Bernardino County, California. A representative from the production company said the video had a Mad Max theme. The first preview of the video was a set of animated storyboards that were shown in a press-only Plastic Beach exhibition in London. On 15 February 2010 Murdoc made a series of posts in Twitter about the upcoming video before releasing a trailer for it. The posts described him, Cyborg Noodle, and 2-D being chased through a Californian desert by an antagonist referred to only as "HIM". A second trailer was released on 27 February, revealing the animation style to be 3D CGI, a first for the band. Babelgum was expected to premiere the video on February. The premiere took place on September 7, 2010 on the official Gorillaz YouTube page. The video was nominated at the 53rd Annual Grammy Awards in the category of Best Short Form Music Video. The ceremony took place on 13 February 2011. The video lost to Lady Gaga's "Bad Romance". Synopsis The music video depicts Murdoc, 2-D, and Cyborg Noodle speeding down a Californian desert highway in a 1969 Chevrolet Camaro with the word "Stylo" on the front grille. A policeman (played by Jason Nott) pursues the band in a Dodge Coronet police car; Cyborg Noodle opens fire at the police car, sending it careening off the road. Bruce Willis then appears, chasing the band in a red 1968 Chevrolet El Camino as an eerie black fog appears in the sky. Cyborg Noodle suddenly malfunctions and collapses in the passenger seat. As Willis chases the Gorillaz, the policeman crawls towards his spilled box of doughnuts, but before he can reach it, a shadowy figure appears out of the earth and envelops him in a cloud of dark vapor. Eventually, the Camaro runs off the highway and into the ocean, where it turns into a shark-shaped submarine and swims out of view. The video was directed by Jamie Hewlett and produced by Cara Speller. The live action was created through HSI Productions in Los Angeles and the animation by Passion Pictures in London.

Tweet Tweet Tweety
| color_process = Technicolor | runtime = 7:03 | language = English }} Tweet Tweet Tweety is a 1951 Warner Bros. Looney Tunes animated short directed by Friz Freleng. The short was released on December 15, 1951, and stars Tweety and Sylvester.Plot Sylvester is in Yellowstone National Park and, hearing birds chirping, climbs up the tree to Tweety's nest, despite the ranger's warnings. Unfortunately, he hasn't hatched, so Sylvester must wait him out. Once Tweety does hatch, he decides to poke the cat in the butt with a pin needle, to get him off. Sylvester then gives chase, with Tweety hiding in a hole in the tree; the cat forces him out with an air pump, but Tweety sends up a stick of dynamite instead. The chase then continues to another tree, with Tweety sawing the branch Sylvester is on. Some time later, Tweety is singing about what Sylvester would want with him, while Sylvester sits below, scarred and bruised from attempting to scale the tree while it's covered in barbed wire. Irritated and annoyed, Sylvester hacks the tree down, only to have it fall on himself. Sylvester then tries to use a swing in order to reach Tweety on a branch, only to swing into a construction mallet which flattens him. Later, people are taking pictures of Tweety, who is perched on a tree stump. Sylvester, disguised as a cameraman, moves up close to Tweety, pops his head through the camera lens and eats him, only to spit him out thanks to the park ranger who catches him in the act, then bashes him in the head for violating the park's rule. The next attempt involves Tweety hiding in Old Faithful's geyser, which would erupt exactly when the clock below turns to 12:00. He sets the clock to 12:30 and jumps in, while Tweety sets the clock back to 12:00, the time it erupts, forcing the cat upward. Tweety then hops on a log and starts rowing down a river, with Sylvester close behind in a rowboat. However, there is a waterfall ahead; Tweety jumps off, but Sylvester does not, and he desperately tries to row upward once he realizes where he is. Tweety offers assistance by turning on the emergency control; this merely causes Sylvester, not yet in safe waters, to end up in midair. He waves goodbye and falls down, presumably to his doom. Tweety then comments that Sylvester is going to hurt himself if he is not more careful.

Timothy P. Andrews }} The Regiment of Voltigeurs and Foot Riflemen was a one-year regiment of the United States Army raised during the Mexican–American War. It was active in 1847 and 1848. Background At the beginning of the Mexican American War, Congress changed its policy of attempting to prosecute the war with the Regular Army and ordered nine new regiments: eight infantry and the Regiment of Voltigeurs and Foot Riflemen. The regiment was authorized on February 11, 1847 and the first officers, the colonel and the lieutenant colonel, were assigned on February 16, 1847.OrganizationThe regiment was commanded by Colonel Timothy P. Andrews; his second-in-command was Lieutenant Colonel Joseph E. Johnston. The regiment was not numbered. It was to be a special unit with half of its men to be mounted, the other half were to be on foot. The intent was to have each horseman paired with a foot soldier who was to get up behind him for rapid movements. However this arrangement was never used, the Voltigeurs became a regiment of foot riflemen, armed with the muzzle-loading Model 1841 rifle, the same rifle as was used by the Regiment of Mounted Riflemen. The Voltigeurs and Foot Riflemen regiment included a company of mountain howitzers and war rockets.<ref namemahon />See also* List of United States military and volunteer units in the Mexican–American WarReferencesExternal * [http://www.history.army.mil/html/books/075/75-1/CMH_Pub_75-1.pdf The Regular Army Before the Civil War] Regiment of Voltigeurs and Foot Riflemen Category:Military units and formations of the Mexican–American War Category:Military units and formations established in 1847 Category:Military units and formations disestablished in 1848

Point Sur State Marine Reserve and Marine Conservation Area
| area | established 2007 | visitation_num | visitation_year | governing_body = California Department of Fish and Game }} Point Sur State Marine Reserve (SMR) and Point Sur State Marine Conservation Area (SMCA) are two adjoining marine protected areas that lie offshore of Point Sur, part of the Big Sur area on California's central coast. The combined area of these marine protected areas is . The SMR protects all marine life within its boundaries. Fishing and taking of all living marine resources is prohibited in the SMR. Within the SMCA, fishing and taking of all living marine resources is prohibited except the commercial and recreational take of salmon and albacore.HistoryPoint Sur SMR and Point Sur SMCA were established in September 2007 by the California Fish & Game Commission. They are two of 29 marine protected areas adopted during the first phase of the Marine Life Protection Act Initiative. The Marine Life Protection Act Initiative (or MLPAI) is a collaborative public process to create a statewide network of marine protected areas along the California coastline. Geography and natural features These two marine protected areas adjoin each other off the coast of Point Sur. The Big Sur coastline is known for its spectacular and rugged scenery. The sites are adjacent to Andrew Molera State Park and Point Sur State Historic Park. The Point Sur SMR extends from Point Sur in the north to Cooper Point in the south and begins at the coastline and extends to the west.  The Point Sur SMCA is directly adjacent to Point Sur SMR, further to the west.Habitat and wildlife The Point Sur marine protected areas contain a wide diversity of habitats that support a range of fish, seabirds and invertebrate species. The protected lee of Point Sur supports a large kelp bed that provides a shelter and nursery habitat to rockfish and other species. Remote from ports and urban development, the Point Sur Marine protected areas protect one of the few remaining areas in central California that support large, healthy fish populations and pristine habitat. Sea otters, sea lions, and harbor seals live along the shore, and abalone and mussels can be found along the coast. Every year gray whales, humpback whales, and blue whales migrate past Point Sur. The kelp forests of the Point Sur SMCA are home to cabezon, vermillion rockfish, and blue fish, while mola mola live near the ocean surface.  Spotted ratfish have been spotted in the Point Sur SMCA near the ocean floor.  Migrating birds shelter and nest on nearshore rocks, including gulls, cormorants, guillemots, ashy storm-petrels, Cassin’s auklet, and tufted puffins. in 2004]] Recreation and nearby attractions Andrew Molera State Park, adjacent to Point Sur SMR, has miles of hiking trails and a primitive walk-in camp. Point Sur State Historic Park features the Point Sur Lighthouse, the only complete turn-of-the-century lighthouse open to the public in California. The light station is on the National Register of Historic Places. Guided walking tours are available year round for both the Point Sur Lighthouse and the former Point Sur Naval Facility within Point Sur State Historic Park. California's marine protected areas encourage recreational and educational uses of the ocean. Activities such as kayaking, diving, snorkeling, and swimming are allowed unless otherwise restricted. Scientific monitoring As specified by the Marine Life Protection Act, select marine protected areas along California's central coast are being monitored by scientists to track their effectiveness and learn more about ocean health. Similar studies in marine protected areas of the Santa Barbara Channel Islands have already detected gradual improvements in fish size and number. Local scientific and educational institutions involved in the monitoring include Stanford University's Hopkins Marine Station, University of California Santa Cruz, Moss Landing Marine Laboratories and Cal Poly San Luis Obispo. Research methods include hook-and-line sampling, intertidal and scuba diver surveys, and Remote Operated Vehicle (ROV) submarines.

After the Second World War, he played Minor Counties cricket for Devon. Educated at Clifton College, Kinnersley was a right-handed middle order batsman and a right-arm bowler of slow spinners. A prominent schoolboy cricketer, he made his debut for Somerset in the year he left school, 1932, and though he made little impression with the bat, he took three top-order Indian batsmen's wickets in the first innings of his second match, and two more in the second innings. The 3/40 in the first innings was his best career bowling return. However, after three matches that season, he disappeared from first-class cricket for five years. In 1937, Kinnersley returned for two matches in which he took eight wickets without improving on his best bowling performance and again had no success as a batsman. In 1938, there were five games, but he bowled only 17 overs in them and, though his batting improved, his highest score was still only 25, which he made twice. In one of these innings, against Sussex at Taunton, Kinnersley's "patient" play gave Somerset a first-innings lead in a rain-ruined match. After the Second World War, he played successfully as a batsman and occasional bowler for Devon in the Minor Counties Championship, winning his county cap in 1947 and playing until 1955. Against Dorset at Seaton in 1952, he scored 105.References Category:1914 births Category:1984 deaths Category:English cricketers Category:Somerset cricketers Category:Devon cricketers Category:People educated at Clifton College Category:Samoan cricketers Category:Sportspeople from Apia Category:British expatriates in Samoa Category:20th-century English sportsmen

2007 Washington Mystics season

History and overview Established in 1946, the town owed its initial growth to the Santa Teresita Development Association led by José Milano, who successfully lobbied provincial authorities for paved roads, a telephone exchange, power plant, and clinic (all of which had been opened by 1949). A curupay wooden pier was built by the association in 1947, and in 1972, extended to 200 m (656 ft)though damage from a 1983 storm later led to its rebuilding in concrete. U.S. engineer Luther Koontz, who had stayed in Argentina after helping Alister MacKenzie design two golf courses for the Argentine Jockey Club, opened the Santa Teresita Golf Club in 1950, and the first lodging establishment, the Hostería Santa Teresita, was opened by Horacio Fiocco and Angel de Martino. Four hotels opened during the 1950s, and in 1959, the town's best known inn, the Hotel Bristol, welcomed its first guests. The 1960 Census counted 547 year-round residents. A monthly periodical, Santa Teresita, was started in 1958, as was Stefani Brothers, the first local home builder. Schools, cinemas, cafés, and a police department were added, and in 1965, the Jorge Newbery Airfield. The town's first local bank, the Banco de Crédito Rural Argentino, opened in 1967, though mismanagement led to its collapse in 1986. Growing to 6,240 year-round residents by 1980, Santa Teresita became a distance learning hub through a 2007 agreement with the National University of Mar del Plata, for which a VHF radio transmitter is used at the meteorological station. La Plata dolphin incident In February 2016, Santa Teresita gained international notoriety after numerous beach-goers surrounded, removed, and proceeded to handle and take "selfies" with an extremely rare and endangered La Plata dolphin, leaving it to die in the mud on the beach. The behavior of the participants sparked international outrage.

Edward Stafford, 4th Baron Stafford
|death_date |place of burial Stafford Castle Church |noble family =Stafford |spouse =Isabel Forster |issue =Edward Stafford |father =Edward Stafford, 3rd Baron Stafford |mother =Mary Stanley |}} Edward Stafford, 4th Baron Stafford (1572 – 16 September 1625), was the son of Edward Stafford, 3rd Baron Stafford, and Mary Stanley, daughter of Edward Stanley, 3rd Earl of Derby, and Dorothy Howard. He became 4th Baron Stafford on the death of his father in 1603. He married Isabel Forster, the daughter of Thomas Forster of Tong, Shropshire. Isabel was reported to be a family chambermaid in a letter to the Earl of Leicester which includes "My Lorde Stafford's son is basely married to his mother's chambermaid." Edward Stafford continued on with his father's patronage of the Lord Stafford's Company, a travelling group of players, who were active until at least 1617. Death and succession Stafford had one son, Edward (1602 – 6 April 1621). This son married Ann Wilford, daughter of James Wilford, Newman Hall, Quendon, Essex, and had two children: #Mary Howard, Countess of Stafford, who married Sir William Howard, younger son of Thomas, Earl of Arundel. Following her brother Henry Stafford's death, and the forced surrender of the barony, on the ground of his poverty, by the next heir, Mary's distant cousin Roger Stafford, 6th Baron Stafford in 1637, William and Mary were created Baron and Baroness Stafford on 12 September 1640. Two months later, William was created Viscount Stafford. #Henry Stafford, 5th Baron Stafford (24 September 1621 – 4 August 1637).

2010 Minnesota Vikings season
*TCF Bank Stadium (Week 15) | record = 6–10 <!-- Do not add zero ties --> | division_place = 4th NFC North | playoffs = Did not qualify | pro bowlers = | AP All-pros = RB Adrian Peterson (2nd team) | uniform = File:Vikings 50 Year jersey.png | shortnavlink = Vikings seasons }} The 2010 season was the Minnesota Vikings' 50th in the National Football League (NFL), and the fifth and final under head coach Brad Childress. After a loss to the New Orleans Saints in the NFC Championship ended their 2009 season, the Vikings had hoped to defend their NFC North division title for the third year in a row and contend again for a Super Bowl championship. However, Brett Favre was unable to recover from the injuries he had sustained in the NFC Championship and turned in abysmal performances for most of the season, being forced to sit out three games due to injuries and breaking his consecutive start record at 297 games since September 1992. After the Vikings fell to a 3–7 record with a 31–3 division loss to the Green Bay Packers in week 11, Childress was fired and defensive coordinator Leslie Frazier was named as his interim replacement, going 3–3 in his six games in charge before taking over the job permanently at the end of the season. The team finished 6–10 and ended up in last place in the division for the first time since 1990. The Vikings also missed the playoffs for the first time since 2007. This season also saw the return of star wide receiver Randy Moss, as the Vikings traded a third-round draft pick to the New England Patriots in exchange for Moss and a 2012 seventh-round selection. Although it was his first time back with the Vikings since 2004, Moss was waived after only a month in Minnesota, before being claimed off waivers by the Tennessee Titans, where he played the remainder of the season before retiring at the end of the season. It was also quarterback Brett Favre's 20th and final season in the NFL; Favre had started 321 straight games from 1992 to 2010, and retired as the all-time leader in consecutive starts made by a quarterback. Favre was also the last remaining active player to win a Super Bowl in the 1990s, having led the Packers to their third Super Bowl title in 1997. Further woes befell the team when wide receiver Percy Harvin missed two games due to persistent migraine headaches. On December 12, the Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome's inflatable roof collapsed for the first time since 1986 after a heavy snowfall. As a consequence, the Vikings had to play that week's game against the Giants at Detroit's Ford Field on Monday night. Since the Metrodome's roof could not be repaired in time, the team was forced to play the Bears in Week 15 at TCF Bank Stadium for their first outdoor home game since 1981. Offseason Transactions In April 2010, the Vikings re-signed restricted free agents Ryan Cook (offensive tackle), Fred Evans (defensive tackle), Eric Frampton (safety) and Naufahu Tahi (fullback). A week later, on April 21, they signed cornerback Lito Sheppard to a one-year contract after his release by the New York Jets. They then added wide receiver Marquis Hamilton and offensive tackle Bill Noethlich to their roster in the first week of May. During the 2010 preseason, the Vikings were struggling at the wide receiver position and signed free agent Javon Walker – who had been released by the Oakland Raiders in April – before trading cornerback Benny Sapp to the Miami Dolphins in exchange for Greg Camarillo. A week later, the Vikings waived the contracts of Bill Noethlich and Marko Mitchell, placed J Leman on the injured reserve list and designated Sidney Rice as Physically Unable to Perform. On September 3, the Vikings traded Sage Rosenfels and Darius Reynaud to the New York Giants for a fifth-round pick in the 2011 draft and a conditional seventh-round pick in 2012. Rosenfels became expendable to the Vikings when Brett Favre decided to return for the 2010 season. 2010 draft {| class="wikitable" |style="background-color:lightsteelblue;border:1px solid #aaaaaa;width:2em"| |Pro Bowler |} {| class"wikitable" style"text-align:center" |- !colspan"7" style""| 2010 Minnesota Vikings Draft |- !colspan"2" style""| Draft order !rowspan"2" style""| Player name !rowspan"2" style""| Position !rowspan"2" style""| College !rowspan"2" style""| Contract !rowspan"2" style""| Notes |- !style""| Round !style""| Selection |- ! 1 ! 30 |colspan"4"| Traded to the Detroit Lions | |- !rowspan="3"| 2 ! 34 | Chris Cook | CB | Virginia | 4 years, $5.37 million | From Lions |- ! 51 | Toby Gerhart | RB | Stanford | 4 years, $3.767 million | From Texans |- ! 62 |colspan"4"| Traded to the Houston Texans | |- ! 3 ! 93 |colspan"4"| Traded to the Houston Texans | |- !rowspan="2"| 4 ! 100 |bgcolor=lightsteelblue| Everson Griffen | DE | USC | 4 years, $2.33 million {| class"wikitable" style"text-align:center" |- !

The Rams roster featured rookie quarterback Sam Bradford, signed as the #1 overall pick in the 2010 NFL draft. Meanwhile, the Vikings were without six members of their regular starting offense, including QB Brett Favre and RB Adrian Peterson. The Rams got the first touchdown of the game with 1:29 remaining in the first quarter, when Danny Amendola returned a Chris Kluwe punt for 93 yards. The Vikings responded with two TDs in the second quarter; first, backup QB Sage Rosenfels passed for two yards to wide receiver Logan Payne, before throwing a 65-yard TD pass to tight end Garrett Mills. Rosenfels got his third passing TD in the third quarter, with a 71-yard pass to WR Marko Mitchell. The victory was completed with 6:49 left in the game as fellow rookies – QB Joe Webb and TE Mickey Shuler Jr. – combined for a two-yard pass.

The game marked the return of quarterback Brett Favre to the Vikings' starting lineup, but he lasted just four plays; the first was a 13-yard pass to RB Adrian Peterson for a first down, but he was sacked for a loss of 10 yards two plays later and was replaced by Tarvaris Jackson for the Vikings' next drive. By the time Favre took the field, the 49ers were already leading 7–0 via a 4-yard run from Anthony Dixon. It was not until the 2nd quarter that the Vikings got their first points on the board, with Ryan Longwell landing a 40-yard field goal. San Francisco responded with two Joe Nedney field goals in the second half before the Vikings' rookie QB Joe Webb took advantage of a gap in the 49ers defense to rush 48 yards for a touchdown, bringing Minnesota within three points with two minutes left to play. Kicker Rhys Lloyd attempted an onside kick, but it was recovered by San Francisco, and by the time the Vikings got the ball back they were on their own 8-yard line with 9 seconds left in the game. They attempted to go for the win, but Webb was sacked in the end zone for a safety as the clock ran out, giving the 49ers a 15–10 win.

Quarterback Brett Favre lasted for eight series and threw for 187 yards on 16 completions, but the Vikings only came away with 10 points while he was on the field. The first points of the game came from an interception of a Favre pass, as Seattle safety Earl Thomas got to the ball ahead of wide receiver Bernard Berrian and returned it for an 86-yard touchdown. Nevertheless, Darius Reynaud returned the ensuing kickoff for 73 yards, giving Adrian Peterson the opportunity to rush 23 yards in two plays to level the scores at 7–7. Olindo Mare and Ryan Longwell then traded field goals to make the scores 10–10 at halftime. Another field goal from Mare put the Seahawks ahead on their first drive of the second half, but the Vikings responded with a 25-yard touchdown pass from Sage Rosenfels to new wide receiver Javon Walker with just over seven minutes left in the game. Minnesota sealed the win with less than three minutes on the clock, when Joe Webb tossed the ball seven yards for fullback Ryan D'Imperio to return the Vikings to a winning preseason record.

To accommodate the Vikings playing in the 2010 NFL Kickoff game the following Thursday, this game was also played on a Thursday, and head coach Brad Childress opted to rest the majority of his starting lineup. As in each of their three previous preseason games, the Vikings conceded the first points of the game, allowing LenDale White to rush two yards into the endzone and convert on 2nd-and-goal. The Vikings were unable to earn a first down on each of their first three series, but after punting on the third, the Broncos' rookie quarterback Tim Tebow fumbled the snap on their return drive; Erin Henderson picked up the loose ball and returned it 35 yards for a touchdown. Ryan Longwell put Minnesota ahead with a 27-yard field goal on the first play of the second quarter, and from that point the Vikings never relinquished their lead. Albert Young then converted a 1st-and-goal from the 1-yard line to give Minnesota a 10-point lead at halftime. The two teams traded touchdowns in the third quarter, as Tebow threw a 39-yard pass to Matthew Willis for Denver, and Ian Johnson rushed 4 yards for Minnesota. A 14-yard pass from Brady Quinn to Alric Arnett brought the Broncos to within three points going into the last 12 minutes of the game, but on the very next series, Joe Webb threw a 63-yard pass to a wide open Javon Walker on the right side of the field, and the wide receiver walked into the end zone. Broncos kicker Matt Prater completed the scoring with a 49-yard field goal with just under five minutes left, giving the Vikings a 31–24 win and a 3–1 preseason record. Regular season Schedule Based on the NFL's predetermined scheduling formula, the Vikings played every team in the NFC East and AFC East, the teams from the NFC South and NFC West that finished the same place in their division as the Vikings did last year (which were the division winners), as well as their usual NFC North division rivals. The schedule was announced on April 20, 2010: the season began with the Vikings taking on the New Orleans Saints in the NFL Kickoff Game on Thursday, September 9, while the bye week will come in Week 4. The season culminated with road games against the Philadelphia Eagles and the Detroit Lions. {| class"wikitable" style"text-align:center" |- ! Week !! Date !! Opponent !! Result !! Record !! Venue !!

Minnesota lost the coin toss and gave up a touchdown on the first drive of the game; New Orleans received the ball from the kickoff and then took 5 plays to go 77 yards, culminating with Drew Brees passing 29 yards down the right sideline for wide receiver Devery Henderson, who dived into the endzone for the score. The 1st quarter ended with the Vikings defense forcing the Saints to go 3-and-out, with the subsequent punt beginning the 2nd quarter. The Vikings began the next drive at their own 11-yard line, before taking 16 plays to go 66 yards and into field goal range. They failed to convert on 3rd down at the New Orleans 23-yard line, giving Ryan Longwell the chance to score a 41-yard field goal. Minnesota forced another 3-and-out on the Saints' next possession, but Bernard Berrian muffed the catch on the punt return, and the Vikings began their next drive at their own 18-yard line. To rub salt in the wound, on the 3rd play of the drive, Brett Favre was hit hard by Roman Harper and he threw a pass right into the hands of Saints linebacker Jonathan Vilma. With less than 90 seconds left in the half, Garrett Hartley stepped up for a 46-yard field goal attempt, but he hooked the kick wide left of the uprights. Beginning at the 36-yard line with 1:19 left in the half, Favre controlled the clock and picked up a 1st down before throwing consecutive 33-yard and 20-yard passes to tight end Visanthe Shiancoe for the Vikings' first touchdown of the season. Ryan Longwell's extra point attempt was blocked by defensive tackle Remi Ayodele, but the Vikings went in at the half with a 2-point lead. After receiving the ball to start the second half, the Vikings were unable to get past midfield and gave the ball back to the Saints on the New Orleans 26-yard line. In the space of 10 plays, the Saints were up to the Minnesota 1-yard line, from where Pierre Thomas was able to jump over the line of scrimmage to restore New Orleans' lead. In the 4th quarter, the Saints had another shot at a field goal, this time from 32 yards, but again Hartley pulled the kick wide of the posts. New Orleans got the ball back with 5:32 left in the game, and ran out the clock to claim a 14–9 win.

Yet again, Minnesota conceded the first points of the game – on Miami's first offensive play of the game, Chad Henne threw a 46-yard pass to Brandon Marshall to get the Dolphins to the Minnesota 27-yard line; eight plays later, they had the ball in the endzone via a 5-yard pass from Henne to wide receiver Brian Hartline. The 2nd quarter saw Brett Favre throw his second interception of the season – his first of four turnovers during the game. The second came midway through the 3rd quarter when the 21-year veteran fumbled on a sack into his own endzone; the ball was recovered by Dolphins linebacker Koa Misi to give Miami a two-possession lead. A Minnesota fightback began soon after, but not before Favre threw another interception, picked off by cornerback Jason Allen at the Miami 2-yard line. However, on Miami's first play after the turnover, running back Ricky Williams fumbled during a tackle by linebacker E. J. Henderson; Henderson's brother Erin recovered the ball and made his way to the 1-yard line, giving the Vikings a 1st-and-goal opportunity. Favre failed to pick out tight end Visanthe Shiancoe with the first play of the drive before allowing Adrian Peterson to barge through the line of scrimmage for the touchdown. A 13-play drive at the start of the 4th quarter got the Vikings into the Dolphins' redzone, but the Miami defense forced them to settle for a 28-yard field goal. With just under six minutes left in the game, Minnesota defensive tackle Pat Williams forced another Miami fumble, recovered by E. J. Henderson 24 yards from the Miami endzone. A succession of rushing attempts from Adrian Peterson followed, getting the Vikings to within a yard of a go-ahead touchdown, but linebacker Karlos Dansby stopped him short of the line on 4th-and-goal. The Vikings had one more attempt to steal the win inside the final two minutes, but Favre's attempted pass to Shiancoe on 4th-and-6 from the Dolphins' 27 fell incomplete, allowing Henne to run the game out with a kneel down, and the Vikings suffered their first home loss in the regular season for the first time since 2008 against the Atlanta Falcons.

Both teams went into the game with 0–2 records, hoping to move away from the bottom of the division standings. Deep into the 1st quarter, Vikings quarterback Brett Favre continued his interception-throwing form, as he was picked off by Lions defensive tackle Corey Williams while attempting to throw a short pass to running back Toby Gerhart. Williams set off on a run, but Gerhart recovered to bring him down at the Minnesota 12-yard line. Three short plays later, Detroit had the ball in the end zone, quarterback Shaun Hill finishing off the drive with a 5-yard pass to tight end Tony Scheffler. The Vikings were forced to punt the ball away on their first drive after the touchdown, but Detroit punt returner Stefan Logan fumbled while attempting to catch the ball, which was recovered by Vikings linebacker Chad Greenway 24 yards from the Detroit goal line. With the first play of the drive, Favre threw a 24-yard pass to wide receiver Percy Harvin, who made a diving catch for the game-tying touchdown. Detroit's next drive resulted in a missed field goal, allowing the Vikings to go 66 yards back down the field for a touchdown, finished off by a 6-yard run from Adrian Peterson. With a minute left in the first half, Favre was picked off yet again, as his throwing arm was hit by Lions defensive end Cliff Avril, giving Alphonso Smith a simple interception. The Lions drove 36 yards into the Minnesota half, and Jason Hanson ended the 2nd quarter with a field goal from 33 yards. Minnesota began the second half with the ball and took 10 plays to get into the Detroit red zone; however, the Detroit defense stood firm and the Vikings were limited to a 31-yard field goal from Ryan Longwell. The Lions managed to get back into the Minnesota half on their next possession, but they went 3-and-out on the Minnesota 41-yard line before punting into the end zone for a touchback. On the very next play, Vikings halfback Adrian Peterson broke a career-long 80-yard run for a touchdown to put Minnesota 24–10 up. On Detroit's next possession, a sack on 3rd-and-20 by Vikings defensive end Brian Robison on quarterback Shaun Hill sparked a mass brawl between the two teams. As the defense made their way off the field, Brett Favre was seen giving them vigorous verbal encouragement. Midway through the 4th quarter, Minnesota running back Toby Gerhart fumbled the ball in a tackle, and it was recovered by Detroit free safety Louis Delmas. The Lions then drove back down the field from their own 22-yard line to within 4 yards of the Minnesota end zone in just under 5 minutes. However, on 1st-and-goal, Vikings linebacker Ben Leber intercepted Shaun Hill's attempted pass to running back Maurice Morris inside the end zone before returning it to the Minnesota 18-yard line. The Vikings failed in their attempt to run the clock down to the two-minute warning and had to punt the ball away, giving the Lions one final chance to reduce their deficit. Beginning the drive at their own 38-yard line, they got to the Minnesota 10-yard line within seven plays, but cornerback Antoine Winfield intercepted Hill's attempt at another touchdown pass to Tony Scheffler inside the endzone for a touchback with only a minute to go. Brett Favre knelt the ball down to run out the clock and the Vikings picked up their first win of the regular season. Week 4: Bye week The Vikings took their 2010 bye week in Week 4 of the season – their earliest bye week since the 2004 season. There were mixed results for their divisional rivals, with the Green Bay Packers beating the Detroit Lions by 2 points, while the Chicago Bears were beaten 17–3 by the New York Giants. In the days leading to their Week 5 game, the Vikings pulled off a dramatic trade, acquiring receiver Randy Moss from the New England Patriots. The move reunited Moss with the team that drafted him in 1998 and came after Moss caught 50 touchdowns with New England, including a one-handed touchdown catch against the Jets four weeks earlier.

The Vikings came into the game wearing their purple pants and played the Cardinals in what was arguably a desperation game not only for the season, but head coach Brad Childress' job. His job had become more scrutinized after he acted alone to cut wide receiver Randy Moss, which drew a bunch of boos and jeers at Childress. However, the action did not start until the 2nd quarter, when the Vikings drove down the field and had a 2nd and goal. Favre threw to Peterson behind the line, but Peterson dodged a few players and got into the end zone, which made the game 7–0 in the 2nd quarter. The very next play, when the Vikings kicked off, Stephens-Howling returned a kickoff 96 yards for a touchdown which tied the game. After that, the Vikings responded with kicker Ryan Longwell nailing a 21-yard field goal. They fell behind with quarterback Derek Anderson completing a 30-yard touchdown pass to wide receiver Andre Roberts to close out the first half. This was followed by defensive back Michael Adams returning a Percy Harvin kickoff fumble 30 yards for a touchdown, and with kicker Jay Feely making a 22-yard field goal. The lead was closed down by Peterson as he got a 4-yard touchdown run, and by quarterback Brett Favre's 25-yard touchdown pass to tight end Visanthe Shiancoe. In overtime the decision was made when Longwell successfully made a 35-yard field goal to give the Vikings the win, bringing their record up to 3–5 and temporarily saving their quarterback's and head coach's jobs.

On their first series, QB Brett Favre attempted a pass, but he was hit from behind and was intercepted by Bills CB Drayton Florence. Favre was slow to get up afterwards and he was able to walk off the field on his own power, but did not return to the game, citing a shoulder injury (later revealed to be a sprain in his throwing shoulder). At 297 consecutive starts over 19 seasons, this injury would put an end to Favre's all-time NFL consecutive start streak. In his place, backup QB Tarvaris Jackson took over for the rest of the game. They got off to a bad start after Jackson's pass was intercepted by CB Drayton Florence and returned 40 yards for a touchdown. They overcame this deficit with Jackson getting a 31-yard TD pass to WR Sidney Rice. It was originally ruled an interception, but Frazier challenged the play and the officials sided with the Vikings, saying that Rice had two hands on the ball, resulting in a touchdown. It was followed in the second quarter by RB Adrian Peterson getting a 2-yard and a 3-yard TD run. Then Jackson found Rice again on a 6-yard TD pass, followed by kicker Ryan Longwell nailing a 38-yard field goal. They continued to dominate in the fourth quarter when Peterson ran 43 yards to the end zone for a touchdown. The Bills responded with QB Ryan Fitzpatrick getting a 12-yard TD pass to TE David Nelson. However, the Bills were unable to overcome such a large deficit and couldn't come up with another come-from-behind victory.

The roof later collapsed, forcing the NFL to use Ford Field in Detroit as an alternate site. Despite the one-day delay, Brett Favre was listed as inactive for the game due to his shoulder injury. With the loss, the Vikings dropped to 5–8, and were mathematically eliminated from postseason contention.Week 15: vs. Chicago Bears ;text-align:center; |state=autocollapse |title=Week 15: Chicago Bears at Minnesota Vikings – Game summary |date=December 20 |time=7:30 p.m. |road=Bears |R110 |R27 |R320 |R43 |home=Vikings |H17 |H20 |H37 |H40 |stadium=TCF Bank Stadium, Minneapolis, Minnesota (moved from Mall of America Field due to the collapse of the Metrodome roof) |attendance=40,504 |weather=Snow, |referee=Carl Cheffers (51) |TV=ESPN |TVAnnouncers=Mike Tirico, Ron Jaworski, Jon Gruden, Michele Tafoya and Suzy Kolber |reference=[https://www.nfl.com/games/bears-at-vikings-2010-reg-15 Recap], [https://nflcdns.nfl.com/liveupdate/gamecenter/55039/MIN_Gamebook.pdf Game Book] |scoring= First quarter *MIN – Percy Harvin 23-yard pass from Brett Favre (Ryan Longwell kick), 11:22.

In the first quarter the Vikings took the lead with QB Brett Favre throwing a 23-yard TD pass to WR Percy Harvin. However, they failed to maintain this lead after kickier Robbie Gould made a 29-yard field goal, followed by QB Jay Cutler completing a 67 and a 15-yard TD pass to wide receivers Johnny Knox and Devin Hester respectively, then with Gould nailing a 23-yard field goal. The Vikings caused more problems after a three-and-out converted into a 64-yard punt return for a touchdown by Hester. They tried to break the lead with QB Joe Webb scrambling 13 yards for a touchdown, but they continued to struggle after Cutler got a 9-yard TD pass to WR Rashied Davis, followed by Gould hitting a 34 and a 20-yard field goal. The loss dropped the Vikings to 5–9, securing them their first losing season since 2006.

After the Detroit Lions' rookie defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh went for surgery on an injured shoulder, Kevin Williams was called up as an alternate. However, due to the imminent arrival of a new baby to him and his wife, Williams himself withdrew from the roster on January 22; he was replaced by the Arizona Cardinals' DT Darnell Dockett. Two days later, CB Antoine Winfield was added to the NFC Pro Bowl roster to replace the Green Bay Packers' Charles Woodson and Tramon Williams, both of whom withdrew due to their participation in Super Bowl XLV. The final Viking to be added to the NFC roster was LB E. J. Henderson, who received his first career Pro Bowl selection. Coming in as injury cover for San Francisco's Patrick Willis and Chicago's Brian Urlacher, Henderson travelled to Hawaii, but did not take the field.

2010 Indianapolis Colts season
The 2010 season was the Indianapolis Colts' 58th in the National Football League (NFL), their 27th in Indianapolis and their second under head coach Jim Caldwell. They looking to defend their AFC Championship title and win it all in Super Bowl XLV to end their four-year championship drought. It was also the final season with Peyton Manning as the team's starting quarterback, as he would sit out the next season due to a neck injury and would be released by Indianapolis on March 7, 2012. Manning's last game as a Colt was on January 8, 2011, a 17–16 loss to the New York Jets in the Wild Card Round and would sign with the Denver Broncos a year later, on March 20, 2012. The Colts also clinched their ninth consecutive postseason appearance, tying the then all-time record for consecutive postseason appearances by a team with the Dallas Cowboys, who made the playoffs every season from 1975 to 1983. Though the Colts failed to win 12 or more games for the first time since 2002, the team did win the AFC South division title for the seventh time in eight seasons, but were eliminated narrowly in the Wild Card Round by the Jets.

The game did not start well for the Colts who allowed the Eagles to score a quick touchdown on only 3 plays covering 72 yards. A Peyton Manning interception caused more concern as the Colts now found themselves under the gun halfway through the first quarter. Two key defensive stops allowed the Eagles to only score two field goals making it a 13–0 Eagles lead heading into the second quarter. A touchdown pass from Manning to Jacob Tamme allowed the Colts to get back into the game trailing the Eagles only 13–7. A Philadelphia field goal from David Akers added to the lead, however the Colts continued chipping away. A hard hit on wide receiver Austin Collie, who was returning from injury that week, caused a 10‑minute delay in the game in which he was strapped to a stripper and taken to a nearby hospital, where he was diagnosed with a concussion. The Colts, playing with passion, drove down the field and scored a touchdown and field goal within the final two minutes of the half, giving them a 17–16 lead at halftime. The offensive production seen by the Colts in the second quarter was nowhere to be found in the third. The Colts began the third quarter with two three-and-outs while the Eagles got the lead back with a 44-yard field goal halfway through the quarter. Going into the fourth quarter, the Eagles were driving down into scoring position where a 1-yard run by Michael Vick gave the Eagles a 26–17 lead over the Colts. A continued lack of offensive production gave the Eagles the ball back and time to milk the clock. The Colts received the ball back with less than four minutes remaining in the game, trailing by two scores and drove down to score a touchdown. Jim Caldwell elected to kick the ball away to Philadelphia with 1:50 left, a first down and a defensive stop gave the Colts the ball back with less than 0:50 seconds in the game. After driving to midfield, Manning threw his second interception of the game and sealed the Indianapolis Colts third loss of the season.

The second quarter continued to see Colts dominance with a Javarris James touchdown run, extending the Colts lead to 17–0. However, as the quarter wore on the defense began to allow larger gains and the Bengals were able to score a touchdown and a field goal in the last ten minutes of the half. However, an Adam Vinatieri field goal gave the Colts a 20–10 lead going into halftime. The Colts came out in the third quarter sluggish and both teams exchanged the ball throughout the rest of the quarter. Another Vinatieri field goal gave the Colts a 23–10 lead. With everything seeming secure, the Bengals were able to pick up a touchdown on a 19-yard pass from Carson Palmer making it a six-point game. The Bengals onside kick attempt was successful with a late penalty by the Colts, giving the Bengals the ball at the Colts 40-yard line. A fumble, the fifth turnover by the Bengals on the day, gave the Colts the ability to hold on to the lead and win the game 23–17, going to 6–3 on the season and taking first place in the AFC South by one game.

Coordinates are approximate. }} Argyle International Airport (often referred to as Argyle Airport or simply AIA) is an international airport on the island of Saint Vincent in the Caribbean nation of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines. It is located in Argyle, about from the capital Kingstown. The airport is one of St. Vincent and the Grenadines' most important infrastructure assets and the country's first international airport. It is the largest international gateway into the country and connects St. Vincent and the Grenadines to major airports, such as Miami International Airport, John F. Kennedy International Airport, Toronto Pearson International Airport, London Heathrow Airport as well as other airports in the Caribbean. It is the largest of five airports in the multi-island nation of St. Vincent and the Grenadines, the others being J. F. Mitchell Airport in Bequia, Canouan Airport, Mustique Airport and Union Island Airport, all in the Grenadines. Argyle International Airport serves as a major gateway to the Grenadines, with several airlines operating an extensive network of direct domestic flights from AIA to all destinations in the Grenadines. The airport is the second solar powered airport in the Caribbean, following V. C. Bird International Airport in Antigua. History OA-1A amphibian planes that landed at Kingstown harbor in 1927]] The project broke ground on 13 August 2008, with a work team of Vincentians and Cubans (nicknamed the "Chatoyer-Che Contingent" by Vincentian Prime Minister Ralph Gonsalves), and the airport officially opened on 14 February 2017 when a Dynamic Airways charter flight became the first international aircraft to touch down at Argyle. The Argyle International Airport replaced the much smaller E.T. Joshua Airport as St. Vincent and the Grenadines’ principal airport. During the construction of the new airport, the International Airport Development Company (IADC) faced numerous challenges and controversies, causing major delays in the construction process. This resulted in the airport being completed five years after the originally forecasted completion date. and offers 23 commercial spaces, three restaurants and several spots for kiosks. The airport is expected to increase the accessibility to this multi-island destination and be a key economic driver for the country, attracting direct flights from Canada, the US, the UK and more, fueling investments. The airport commenced full operations on 14 February 2017, replacing the decommissioned E.T. Joshua Airport. Argyle International Airport is the only airport in St. Vincent and the Grenadines that offers international scheduled flights and is also served by scheduled, low-fare, business and charter carriers, with many services operated to the U.S. and Canada. It also supports corporate and general aviation. Argyle International Airport is the largest capital project in the history of the country, with an estimated cost of construction of XCD$700 million (USD$259 million) and an actual estimated value in excess of XCD$1 billion. Operations The airport is a primary hub for SVG Air, a national airline of St. Vincent and the Grenadines, along with Mustique Airways. SVG Air and Mustique Airways have combined to form SVG Air-Grenadine Air Alliance, operating 17 aircraft, with bases in St. Vincent, Antigua and Grenada, offering visitors and residents a wider choice of international gateways in and out of St. Vincent & the Grenadines. Numerous inter-island flights are available daily. Air Canada Rouge, American Airlines, Caribbean Airlines, Virgin Atlantic, InterCaribbean Airways, LIAT, SVG Air, Mustique Airways and One Caribbean currently provide regularly scheduled passenger services at Argyle International Airport. EasySky, which began flying to St. Vincent from Havana, Cuba in June 2017, is currently [as of when?] in negotiations with authorities to recommence its twice weekly service. Argyle International Airport has non-stop flights to Canada, the United States and the United Kingdom. The airport receives many international charter flights and is also an important freight airport, which provides cold storage and standard cargo transport. Amerijet International, increased their airlift capacity, using larger aircraft, such as the Boeing 767-300, to move more cargo into and out of St. Vincent and the Grenadines. The busiest international routes are Toronto and New York, while the busiest regional routes remain Barbados and Trinidad. One Caribbean has filed an application for a Foreign Air Carrier Permit with the US Department of Transportation (USDOT) ahead of plans to offer ad hoc charter flights to any point(s) in the United States from St. Vincent & the Grenadines and other OECS (Organisation of Eastern Caribbean States) countries.

The flight crew decided to divert to the home base at Piarco International Airport, Trinidad and Tobago. A safe landing was made at Piarco International Airport at 14:35 UTC, 65 minutes after takeoff, where it was taken out of service for maintenance by the airline's engineers. The airline says passengers on flight BW552 were re-accommodated on a later service to JFK International Airport. *26 August 2019 – A Saab 340 aircraft belonging to One Caribbean, apparently developed issues while departing from Argyle International Airport for Piarco International Airport in Trinidad and Tobago and skidded off the runway. The aircraft was not damaged and there were no injuries to the passengers. *5 June 2021 - American Airlines flight 1427 to Miami had to return to Argyle because of a bird strike. No one was reported injured in the aircraft, a Boeing 737-800. The incident was caught live by an aircraft spotter on video. Controversy Some observers have questioned whether St. Vincent and the Grenadines needs an international airport. If it does, they ask, can the country afford to build – and maintain – an international airport while running an EC$151 million deficit as of February 2016. All of this was with public sector expenses increasing (Prime Minister Gonsalves announced in parliament in January 2016 that wages and salaries for central government employees would experience a "huge increase" in 2016 by 7.3 million EC dollars), taking the total to EC $281.8 million. The government also owes the private sector nearly 100 million East Caribbean dollars. The new airport was originally scheduled to open in 2011. As of February 2016 the project has cost in excess of EC $729 million with increases in costs expected and has suffered from many delays. Paving on the runway was still incomplete as of February 2016. In a "historic" address on 8 August 2005, Prime Minister Gonsalves stated, "Foreign investors often shy away from St. Vincent and the Grenadines when the limitations of air access arise due to the absence of an international airport." Critics have responded saying that the prime minister's statement is invalid and incorrect: on the contrary, many foreign concerns have invested in St. Vincent and the Grenadines from as early as the 1960s, after the Arnos Vale airport was constructed (and later renamed in memory of E.T. Joshua).

Portuguese Ledge State Marine Conservation Area
Portuguese Ledge State Marine Conservation Area (SMCA) is an offshore marine protected area in Monterey Bay. Monterey Bay is on California's central coast with the city of Monterey at its south end and the city of Santa Cruz at its north end. The SMCA covers . Within the SMCA fishing and take of all living marine resources is prohibited except the commercial and recreational take of pelagic finfish. History Portuguese Ledge SMCA was established in September 2007 by the California Department of Fish & Game. It was one of 29 marine protected areas adopted during the first phase of the Marine Life Protection Act Initiative. The Marine Life Protection Act Initiative (or MLPAI) is a collaborative public process to create a statewide network of marine protected areas along the California coastline. 36° 43.00' N. lat. 121° 56.00' W. long.; 36° 43.00' N. lat. 122° 01.30' W. long.; 36° 41.00' N. lat. 122° 00.80' W. long.; 36° 41.00' N. lat. 121° 56.00' W. long.; and 36° 43.00' N. lat. 121° 56.00' W. long. Habitat and wildlife Portuguese Ledge SMCA protects important refuge habitat for several over-fished deepwater rockfish species and is expected to contribute to the recovery of these species. Recreation and tourism The natural environment and ocean resources of the Monterey Peninsula draw millions of visitors from around the world each year, including more than 65,000 scuba divers drawn by the area's easy access, variety of wildlife, and kelp forests. The Monterey Bay Aquarium is a tourist attraction featuring a living kelp forest. The exhibit includes many of the species native to the nearby marine protected areas. The aquarium also houses sea otters, intertidal wildlife, and occasionally sea turtles. In addition to diving and visiting the aquarium, people visit Monterey Bay for kayaking, whale watching, charter fishing, surfing, bird watching, tidepooling and walking on the beach. California's marine protected areas encourage recreational and educational uses of the ocean. Activities such as kayaking, diving, snorkeling, and swimming are allowed unless otherwise restricted. Scientific monitoring As specified by the Marine Life Protection Act, select marine protected areas along California's central coast are being monitored by scientists to track their effectiveness and learn more about ocean health. Similar studies in marine protected areas located off of the Santa Barbara Channel Islands have already detected gradual improvements in fish size and number. Local scientific and educational institutions involved in the monitoring include Stanford University's Hopkins Marine Station, University of California Santa Cruz, Moss Landing Marine Laboratories and Cal Poly San Luis Obispo. Research methods include hook-and-line sampling, intertidal and scuba diver surveys, and the use of Remote Operated Vehicle (ROV) submarines.

1996 United States Senate election in Alaska
| title = U.S. Senator | before_election = Ted Stevens | before_party = Republican Party (United States) | after_election = Ted Stevens | after_party = Republican Party (United States) }} The 1996 United States Senate election in Alaska was held on November 5, 1996. Incumbent Republican United States Senator Ted Stevens ran for re-election to a sixth term (a fifth full term) in the United States Senate. Stevens faced off against Democratic nominee Theresa Obermeyer, a former member of the Anchorage School Board, and Green Party nominee Jed Whittaker, a commercial fisherman. Stevens won in a landslide.Open primaryCandidatesDemocratic * Michael Beasley, perennial candidate * Henry J. Blake Jr. * Lawrence Freiberger, former congressional candidate * Robert Alan Gigler * Theresa Obermeyer, former Anchorage School Board member * Joseph A. Sonneman, perennial candidate * Frank Vondersaar, perennial candidate Republican * Ted Stevens, incumbent United States Senator since 1968 * David Cuddy, former Alaska State Representative * Charles E. McKee Green * Jed Whittaker, commercial fisherman, Republican candidate in 1992 Results General election Campaign The race drew national attention for Obermeyer's erratic behavior: she blamed Stevens for her husband's failure to pass the bar exam twenty-one times, and contended that Stevens had passed the bar by fraud. She "trailed" him to campaign events, frequently wearing a prisoner's outfit and once dragging a ball and chain behind her. In June and July 1996, she served a sentence of 30 days in prison for disorderly conduct because of her role in a disturbance at a federal courthouse, while on probation for a 1994 conviction of disorderly conduct for instigating another disturbance at the same courthouse. Obermeyer attracted public attention, and possibly sympathy, during the campaign when, after serving seven days of her sentence in Alaska state prison, she was moved in the middle of the night to a Portland, Oregon county jail, and after a week there, she was moved to a federal prison in Dublin, California; her husband and attorney each complained about the moves, and a Federal prison official acknowledged that they were unusual. The televised primary election debates on August 21, 1996, also drew national attention for the unusual cast of characters seeking to oppose Stevens, particularly the seven candidates on the Democratic side. A column on the national PoliticsNow website, headlined "Alaska Displays the Scary Side of Democracy," described the debate as "what would happen if the Addams Family appeared on Meet the Press," leading to nationwide sales by public TV station KAKM of a record number of copies of the debate video. Anchorage Daily News columnist Mike Doogan described the debate as "what would happen if the folks from Jabba the Hutt's headquarters dropped by the Mad Hatter's tea party." , photographed on a light pole on South Cushman Street in Fairbanks in 2014. The bumper sticker read "Tired of Ted? Vote for Jed!".]] Results In the general election, Stevens was re-elected in an overwhelming landslide, and Whittaker finished ahead of Obermeyer.

It was active in Alaska from 1960 to 1966 as a control and support organization for Strategic Air Command (SAC) units deployed to Elmendorf Air Force Base, Alaska. History and Operations The 4158th Strategic Wing was organized in 1960 as the 4158th Combat Support Group, a command element for Strategic Air Command (SAC) units deployed to Elmendorf Air Force Base, Alaska. It was expanded to wing status in 1963. It first assigned to Fifteenth Air Force, but on 1 July 1965 it was reassigned to the 18th Strategic Aerospace Division. The wing commanded SAC elements deployed to Alaska during Reflex deployments from United States bases. Reflex deployments placed Boeing B-47 Stratojet strategic bombers on alert at forward locations, such as Elmendorf. Its major subordinate unit was the 73d Munitions Maintenance Squadron, which managed the special weapons for deployed units. In 1964 the wing's buildings were damaged by an earthquake that shook Elmendorf. The 4158th was inactivated in 1966 after SAC Tanker Task Force commitments at Elmendorf terminated at the end of 1965. : Redesignated 4158th Strategic Wing on 1 November 1963 Components * 73d Aviation Depot Squadron (later 73d Munitions Maintenance Squadron): Notes References * Category:Strategic wings of the United States Air Force Category:Major command controlled wings of the United States Air Force Category:Military units and formations established in 1960 Category:Military units and formations disestablished in 1966

Barton Road Swing Bridge
x man-made island in the centre of the canal. The bridge is a steel arch of girders, and connects to the pivot point via a rack and pinion system. It is the only swing road bridge on the canal that rotates from the centre, instead of from one end.HistoryEarly crossingsThere has been a crossing since at least the 17th century at this location, where the road meets the River Irwell. A bridge was constructed over the river around 1677–79, replacing an earlier ford. It was the first river crossing east of Warrington. This bridge was demolished in 1745 in order to stop the progress of the Jacobite army and was replaced by a wooden footbridge, and subsequently a three-arch road bridge. These bridges pre-dated the Barton Aqueduct, and a condition of the aqueduct's design was that it did not impede progress on the Irwell any more than the existing bridge. Current bridge The current bridge was built during the construction of the Manchester Ship Canal. It was designed by the project's engineer, Edward Leader Williams, and constructed by Andrew Handyside and Company. Williams' design was chosen as the best of three possible plans by James Abernethy, who subsequently became the scheme's consulting engineer. The total span is and it carries a roadway. It also became an important route for goods vehicles, both heading to Trafford Park and crossing Lancashire, and for parishioners in Eccles travelling to Mass at the All Saints Church on the canal's south side. In 1946, concern was expressed in Parliament over the closing of the bridge to road traffic at peak times. The following year, the Manchester Ship Canal Company agreed that the bridge would generally stay open for road traffic during rush hour, though this could not be guaranteed. A cargo vessel struck the bridge on 28 December 1948, restricting the bridge to single-line working and a two-ton weight limit until repairs had been completed. In 1953, traffic was banned from turning right off the bridge into Barton Road. By the 1950s, the bridge had become part of a de facto outer ring road as it formed part of a main road, the A575, from Stretford to Bolton, avoiding both Manchester and Salford. A traffic survey in 1954 revealed 9,600 vehicles were using the bridge daily and it closed 7,000 times a year. A replacement bridge was considered vitally important to the local economy, particularly that of Trafford Park. William Proctor, MP for Eccles, said "I cannot think of any other project in the North of England which should have higher priority than the Barton Bridge scheme." Construction of the replacement Barton High Level Bridge started in 1957; the bridge opened to traffic in October 1960 and has been referred to informally as the "Barton Bridge". Traffic on the swing bridge has also been reduced by the construction of Centenary Bridge located upstream towards Salford. while in April, 2013, Salford City Council announced the bridge could be closed for up to six weeks to install pipes to prevent sewer flooding.ReferencesExternal links * [http://www.urmstonmanchester.com/Bridges/Barton-Road-Swing-Bridge.html Photos of the bridge] from urmstonmanchester.com Category:Buildings and structures in Trafford Category:Buildings and structures in the City of Salford Category:Swing bridges in England Category:Bridges completed in 1894 Category:Grade II* listed buildings in Greater Manchester

Rain Perry
| birth_place = Hollywood, California, U.S. | origin | death_date <!-- (death date first) --> | death_place | occupation Singer-songwriter | instrument = Vocals | genre = Folk rock | background = solo_singer | label = Precipitous Records }} Rain Perry (born November 9, 1966) is an American folk rock singer-songwriter. She has released six albums on her own label, Precipitous Records. Her song "Beautiful Tree" was the theme song for the CW Network series Life Unexpected. "Yosemite," from her debut album Balance, won the Grand Prize (Folk Division) in the 2000 John Lennon Songwriting Contest and was recorded by Tom Russell and Nanci Griffith. She wrote and performed a theatrical memoir and audio drama Cinderblock Bookshelves: A Guide for Children of Fame-Obsessed Bohemian Nomads and is the director of the documentary The Shopkeeper, about the impact of the streaming economy on musicians, through the story of Austin music producer Mark Hallman. In 2022 it was reported that she was developing a theatrical piece called This is Water, with a title inspired by the essay This Is Water by David Foster Wallace, about coming to terms with growing up white in America. Biography Rain Noel Perry was born in Hollywood, California. She spent her early years in Los Angeles and Redondo Beach as a member of Bethel Tabernacle church. When her young mother died in 1974 Perry was raised by her father, writer/actor John Hazen Perry.

She now works as an advocate for people with arthritis. In 2000, she produced "Agility: A Woman's Music Festival to Benefit the Arthritis Foundation," featuring Julie Christensen, Perla Batalla, Victoria Williams and Sara Hickman. The play Cinderblock Bookshelves evolved from her 2008 album of the same name and is a memoir of her counterculture childhood, an ode to her imperfect, beloved family. The play's subtitle is "A Guide for Children of Fame-Obsessed Bohemian Nomads," and it had its world premiere in 2008 at Theater 150 in Ojai, California, under the direction of Kim Maxwell, with Sasha Heslip producing. Rain's song "Beautiful Tree," from the album Cinderblock Bookshelves, was chosen as the theme for the CW Network television series Life Unexpected.

Soquel Canyon State Marine Conservation Area
thumb|Bathymetric Chart of Monterey Submarine Canyon thumb|Blue whales are found in the Monterey Submarine Canyon Soquel Canyon State Marine Conservation Area (SMCA) is an offshore marine protected area in Monterey Bay. Monterey Bay is on California’s central coast with the city of Monterey at its south end and the city of Santa Cruz at its north end. The SMCA covers . Within the SMCA, fishing and taking of any living marine resources is prohibited except the commercial and recreational take of pelagic finfish. History Soquel Canyon SMCA was established in September 2007 by the California Department of Fish & Game. It was one of 29 marine protected areas adopted during the first phase of the Marine Life Protection Act Initiative. The Marine Life Protection Act Initiative (or MLPAI) is a collaborative public process to create a statewide network of marine protected areas along the California coastline. Geography and natural features The Soquel Canyon SMCA captures an entire side-branch of the Monterey Submarine Canyon. This marine protected area is bounded by straight lines connecting the points: Habitat and wildlife The Monterey Submarine Canyon is a unique and biologically productive habitat. The rocky canyon walls and mud-and-sand canyon floor offer ideal habitat for rockfishes including depleted species. It contains communities of fragile deepwater corals and sponges. The area is also an important seabird forage ground and whale feeding area. Recreation and nearby attractions The natural environment and ocean resources of the Monterey Peninsula draw millions of visitors from around the world each year, including more than 65,000 scuba divers drawn by the area's easy access, variety of wildlife, and kelp forests. The Monterey Bay Aquarium is a tourist attraction featuring a deep living kelp forest. The exhibit includes many of the species native to the nearby marine protected areas. The aquarium also houses sea otters, intertidal wildlife, and occasionally sea turtles. In addition to diving and visiting the aquarium, people visit Monterey Bay for kayaking, whale watching, charter fishing, surfing, bird watching, tidepooling and walking on the beach. California’s marine protected areas encourage recreational and educational uses of the ocean. Activities such as kayaking, diving, snorkeling, and swimming are allowed unless otherwise restricted. Scientific monitoring As specified by the Marine Life Protection Act, select marine protected areas along California’s central coast are being monitored by scientists to track their effectiveness and learn more about ocean health. Similar studies in marine protected areas located off of the Santa Barbara Channel Islands have already detected gradual improvements in fish size and number. Local scientific and educational institutions involved in the monitoring include Stanford University’s Hopkins Marine Station, University of California Santa Cruz, Moss Landing Marine Laboratories and Cal Poly San Luis Obispo. Research methods include hook-and-line sampling, intertidal and scuba diver surveys, and the use of Remote Operated Vehicle (ROV) submarines.

2010 New Orleans Saints season
| AP All-pros = | shortnavlink = Saints seasons }} The 2010 season was the New Orleans Saints' 44th in the National Football League (NFL) and their 35th playing home games in the Louisiana Superdome. From 2009, the Saints were coming off their first Super Bowl-winning season and the most successful in franchise history, having begun undefeated for 13 consecutive games only to lose their three final regular season encounters to finish 13–3. The Saints also attempted to win the NFC South Division title for the third time in history, earn their first consecutive postseason berths since 1991, and successfully defend their conference and league championships. The Saints failed to improve on their 13–3 record, finishing 11–5 and qualifying for the playoffs as a wild card team. The Saints were eliminated in the first round by the Seattle Seahawks, who were the first team with a losing record (7–9) to qualify for the playoffs and/or win a division title in a full season. Sean Payton served his fifth year as head coach. This is the first time the Saints made the playoffs in back-to-back seasons since the 1990–92 seasons.

Little Red Rodent Hood
| color_process = Technicolor | runtime = 6 minutes | language = English }} Little Red Rodent Hood is a 1952 Warner Bros. Merrie Melodies animated short directed by Friz Freleng. The short was released on May 3, 1952, and stars Sylvester in a spoof of "Little Red Riding Hood".Plot A grandmother mouse is telling her granddaughter a bedtime story, and so tells of Little Red Riding Hood (with the mouse as Riding Hood), and her visit to Grandma's House, unaware that the wolf (Sylvester) is watching her. He takes a shortcut to Grandma's, only to find four others already there, who he forces out. Red comes along, and he speaks his cue line, "The better to eat you with," starting the chase. He pursues Red down the staircase, only to be propelled further than intended by a small stick of butter. Sylvester then decides to blow the house up with dynamite, but accidentally sticks it into Hector's mouth, who then sticks it in the cat's mouth until it blows up. Sylvester next disguises himself as Red's fairy godmother, attempting to electrocute him with a rigged wand. However, Hector unplugs the power so that it doesn't work. He then plugs it back in just as Sylvester tests it on himself. The mouse then tries to go outside, but is trapped once again. Underneath a cup, Sylvester watches as the mouse prepares something, revealed to be a miniature tank that packs a punch. He then traps the mouse by its hole. The grandmother describes how, to save herself, the mouse threw a stick of dynamite out left from the Fourth of July, doing so to demonstrate. The mouse claims that it must have blown the cat up, to which Sylvester replies, "You're not just whistling 'Dixie', brother!"

It contains approximately 120,000 names. There are multiple entries for some people, so 100,000 different people is a realistic estimate. Each of the four volumes after 1986 has its own index. Celebrities are indexed under their birth names also. For example, Cary Grant is also indexed as “Leach, Alexander Archibald”. Clara Bow is also indexed by her popular nickname “The It Girl”. The names of living celebrities appear in the index when there are obituaries for their spouses and relatives; for example, Bob Hope died after the reprints were discontinued, but immediately beneath his indexed name are the obituary references of nine of his relatives, as well as his masseur and his business agent. Non-human celebrities also appear in the index, such as Champion (Gene Autry’s horse) and Bonzo the chimpanzee. Critical evaluation Excerpt from a review in Library Journal by John Smothers: Almost since the periodical's inception, obituaries have been an important feature, and all of them (through 1986) have been gathered together here chronologically in 10 volumes, plus an index volume. The obits vary in length from one sentence to 30 paragraphs and more, with the average entry running about three paragraphs.

Vandenberg State Marine Reserve
thumb|Brown pelican Vandenberg State Marine Reserve (SMR) is a marine protected area located offshore of Vandenberg Air Force Base, near the city of Lompoc on California's central coast. The marine protected area covers . Vandenberg SMR protects all marine life within its boundaries. Fishing and take of all living marine resources is prohibited. History Vandenberg SMR was established in September 2007 by the California Department of Fish and Wildlife. It was one of 29 marine protected areas adopted during the first phase of the Marine Life Protection Act Initiative. The Marine Life Protection Act Initiative (MLPAI) is a collaborative public process to create a statewide network of marine protected areas along the California coastline. Recreation and nearby attractions To the north of Vandenberg SMR is Point Sal State Beach, an park with 1 ½ miles of oceanfront. To the south is Gaviota State Park, a popular place for swimming, fishing and camping. California's marine protected areas encourage recreational and educational uses of the ocean. Activities such as kayaking, diving, snorkeling, and swimming are allowed unless otherwise restricted. Scientific monitoring As specified by the Marine Life Protection Act, select marine protected areas along California's central coast are being monitored by scientists to track their effectiveness and learn more about ocean health. Similar studies in marine protected areas located off of the Santa Barbara Channel Islands have already detected gradual improvements in fish size and number. Local scientific and educational institutions involved in the monitoring include Stanford University's Hopkins Marine Station, University of California Santa Cruz, Moss Landing Marine Laboratories and Cal Poly San Luis Obispo. Research methods include hook-and-line sampling, intertidal and scuba diver surveys, and the use of Remote Operated Vehicle (ROV) submarines.

Allen Jr.; Henry Hobson Richardson; Cass Gilbert | architecture = Classical Revival, Renaissance, Romanesque | added = March 23, 1995 | area = | mpsub | refnum 95000284 }} The Department Store Historic District is a historic district in the Downtown Hartford neighborhood of the city of Hartford, Connecticut, United States. It is a area that, in 1995, included three contributing buildings, one other contributing structure, and one contributing object. It includes a building that is separately listed on the NRHP: the Cheney Building which is also known as the Brown Thomson Building. G. Fox Building The G. Fox & Co. building at 960 Main Street is a neoclassical structure, designed by Cass Gilbert and built in 1918. Besides the department store itself, a warehouse and a bridge attaching the store to the warehouse are listed as contributing properties to the district. At one time, the G. Fox & Co. department store extended into this building. The store was known for the free-standing 'Sage-Allen' sidewalk clock, a local landmark built in 1899, that was located on the Main Street sidewalk in front of the store until the clock was damaged in a windstorm in 1992. The clock was later repaired and erected on another sidewalk in the city. Its importance as a Main Street landmark was known to the re-developers of the Sage-Allen building, and a deal was struck to return the clock to its traditional place. A clock specialist was called upon to restart the clock after its return to Main Street in the summer of 2007.

Plot Smith, an 18-year-old film student who identifies sexually as "undeclared", has been having strange dreams recently. He is going to college with his best friend, Stella, whom he has known since junior high, and finds a note saying he is the "chosen son." He has a roommate named Thor, whom he lusts after even though Thor is straight. Smith and Stella go to a party where Stella hooks up with a girl named Lorelei, whom Smith recognizes from one of his dreams. Later, a red-haired girl vomits on his shoe, and Smith also recognizes her from a dream. Smith eventually gets picked up by London, a British student. They have sex, but to Smith's chagrin, she does not want to be with him except during sex. Smith visits a nude beach and meets a man named Hunter. They start having sex, but Smith is disappointed to hear Hunter is married. Stella discovers Lorelei is not only unstable, but a witch with psychic problems caused by rejection. Stella keeps trying to dump her but has difficulty as Lorelei begins trying to kill her. Smith walks in on Thor and Thor's best friend, Rex, wrestling in their underwear. London seduces Rex, convincing him to have a three-way with her and Smith for Smith's 19th birthday. During this time, Smith continues dreaming of the red-haired girl. In his dreams, they are both pursued by people wearing animal masks. Smith finds out that a girl was killed and her head cut off. He later meets Madeline, who appears to be the same red-haired girl. She tells him that she had a twin sister named Rebecca who was kidnapped many years ago by men wearing animal masks. Stella is attacked by Lorelei in a bathroom, but saves herself by spraying water on her, causing Lorelei to burn up. The animal-masked people finally capture Smith, London, and Smith's mom. They are bundled into a van to be driven to meet the head of a secret cult. Smith learns that the cult leader is his father, although he was always told that his father died when Smith was young. The three also learn London is another child of the cult leader, making her and Smith half-siblings. Stella, Oliver, and the perpetually stoned "Messiah" pursue the van. Oliver has powers like Lorelei's but uses them for good. It turns out that Oliver meeting Smith (and flirting with him) was not chance; he was trying to protect Smith from the cult. The Messiah was only acting stoned as a cover and also wishes to protect Smith. The animal-masked people turn out to be Thor, Rex, and Hunter, whose mission is to get London and Smith to a secret underground shelter to survive the explosion of dozens of nuclear bombs. Non-cult members will be annihilated, and the cult will take over the world with Smith as its leader. The Messiah tries running the van off the road, and both vehicles accelerate towards a bridge that is out. Smith's father presses a button and the Earth explodes.

On Metacritic, the film has a 64/100 rating from 24 reviews, indicating "generally favorable reviews". Bruce DeMara of the Toronto Star praised the film's cast and called it "Araki's most ambitious [film] to date, with a quick pace, music that's hip and cool and a mood that alternates between playful and eccentric." Sam Adams of Philadelphia City Paper was much more critical about it, and said it was "less a movie than a masturbatory doodle, a sloppy, shoddy regurgitation of Araki's pet trope that tries to pass off its slipshod structure as a free-wheeling lark."

Ballweg (née Gottinger; born March 16, 1952) is an American business owner and Republican politician from Green Lake County, Wisconsin. She served four years as a member of the Wisconsin Senate, representing the 14th Senate district from 2021 to 2025. She previously served eight terms in the Wisconsin State Assembly, from 2005 to 2021, and was mayor of Markesan, Wisconsin, from 1991 to 1997.Early life and educationJoan Ballweg was born Joan Gottinger in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and raised in the Milwaukee suburb West Allis. She graduated from Nathan Hale High School in West Allis in 1970 and went on to attend the University of Wisconsin–Waukesha before earning her bachelor's degree from the University of Wisconsin–Stevens Point in 1974. She is married to Tom Ballweg, with whom she has four children. Early career Ballweg worked as a first grade teacher from 1974 to 1976 in Memphis, Tennessee, before returning to Wisconsin with her family. They settled in Waunakee, Wisconsin, before later relocating to Markesan, Wisconsin. They started the Ballweg Implement Company in December 1976. In 1986, she was elected to the Markesan city council, and served in that role until she was elected mayor of Markesan in 1991. Her most noteworthy achievement as mayor was a merger of the city fire department with that of neighboring township. In 1998, the Ballweg company bought out another farm implement store in Waupun, Wisconsin, and made that their primary business, closing their store in Markesan. After leaving office, she also served on the board of directors of Waupun Memorial Hospital, and became chairman of the board in 2001.State legislatureIn 2004, the incumbent state representative in her district, Luther Olsen, chose to run for state senate, creating an open seat in the 41st Assembly district. Ballweg entered the Republican primary in March 2004, citing her experience in education, local government, small business, and the health care industry. Ballweg faced only a Constitution Party opponent in the general election, and prevailed with 84% of the vote. She would win re-election seven times in the 41st Assembly district. In the Assembly, she was elected to caucus leadership in the 2011 and 2013 terms, serving as majority caucus chair. Her only opponent in the 2020 primary was newcomer Ken Van Dyke, who she defeated with 69% of the vote. She faced retired union machinist Joni Anderson in the general election, and prevailed with 65% of the vote. In the state Senate, Ballweg was again elected to leadership, serving as caucus vice chair in the 2023 term. The new 14th Senate district was significantly reorganized, the only areas of the previous district which remained were the areas of the district in Columbia and Sauk counties, and part of the area in southern Adams County; the new district added more areas of Columbia County, all of Sauk and Richland counties, and parts of southern Juneau County and north-central Dane County. In its new configuration, the 14th Senate district was projected to be one of the most competitive in the state and lived up to that expectation. Ballweg narrowly lost the election to mental health counselor Sarah Keyeski of Lodi, Wisconsin, falling about 2.2% short of Keyeski.Personal lifeJoan Gottinger took the last name Ballweg when she married Tom Ballweg in 1974.

Biography Herbert Norman Halpert's interest in folklore emerged in his adolescence and remained throughout his life. Consistent with his choice, he earned an M.A. in Anthropology from Columbia University, where he studied with Ruth Benedict and George Herzog, and a Ph.D. in English from Indiana University, under the guidance of Stith Thompson. Both of his dissertations were based on field studies of American folklore. After the conflict, he became Professor and Head of the Department of English at Murray State College, in Kentucky, where he encouraged his students to collect local traditions. Between 1956 and 1960, he became Dean and Professor of English and Sociology at Blackburn College, in Illinois. In 1960, he was also visiting professor at the University of Arkansas and in the following year he moved to New York City, where he lived until 1962, teaching at the State University of New York. Halpert's collection has been described as unique, as "it has been carefully preserved and catalogued, allowing others to interact with these books and Halpert's marginalia."

University Church of Marburg
thumb|300px|University Church of Marburg The University Church of Marburg is a 13th-century, asymmetric, two-aisled hall church in Marburg, Hesse. History The foundation of the church came in 1291, the era of Gothic architecture. The Dominican Order originally received permission from Henry I, Landgrave of Hesse to build a monastery and church. The Dominicans were popular among the population because they contributed to the poor and health care expenses. They received generous donations which enabled them to richly endow the church, built in dedication to John the Baptist. In 1527, after the introduction of the Protestant Reformation in the Landgraviate of Hesse, the monastery was secularized and its property was handed over as the material foundation for the newly formed Philipps University, which taught in the monastery buildings until 1873. The University Church was also used for funerals of former professors. At times, the buildings around the church were used as granaries. In 1653, after the Thirty Years' War, the university and the church were re-opened by William VI, Landgrave of Hesse-Kassel. A redesign and refurbishing of the interior was completed in 1927 on the occasion of the 400th anniversary of the university under the auspices of the then priest Karl Bernhard Ritter. Specifications The church is asymmetrical with two spans. The side aisle and centre aisle are the same height. It has only a nave, and a transept is not present. The church is accessible via two entrances, the west gate and the north gate. The polygonal choir across from the nave is somewhat elevated. The church and choir are oriented to the east. It directly adjoins the convent, the later premises of the Old University, and is thus not freestanding. When one enters the nave through the west gate, one faces directly towards the choir, which was erected first. There are three panel windows with tracery in the choir, though they have been altered or replaced. The Organ is also located in the choir. The elaborately worked choir screen, which separates the choir from the nave, dates from 1927, the 400th anniversary of the university. It was added post hoc, just like the galleries and the organ. Even if a south side aisle were planned, it would not be possible, because the alley is already there, and therefore the necessary space is lacking. Thus the side aisle is located on the north side, next to the alley. On the south side, the buttresses, which customarily reach outwards, as evidenced on the north side, have been relocated to the inside. Since the former cloister was attached to the facade of the south wall, relocation to the inside seemed to be the best alternative. Besides, there is a full length gallery inside the church on the south side. There is a turret on the roof. It is mentioned in the literature that the Dominicans, as a mendicant order, were not entitled to build a tower, so they built a ridge turret instead. The roof was completed after the construction of the choir in 1420.

This marine protected area is bounded by the mean high tide line and straight lines connecting the following points in the order listed: , 35° 32.85’ N. lat. 121° 06.70’ W. long.; 35° 30.50’ N. lat. 121° 05.00’ W. long.; and 35° 30.50’ N. lat. 121° 03.40’ W. long. Habitat and wildlife Key habitats protected within the SMCA include kelp forests, rocky intertidal zone, reef and sandy bottom, pinnacles and offshore rocks. The area is home to various wildlife including sea otters, sea lions, harbor seals and birds. Recreation and nearby attractions San Simeon Park, which adjoins the Cambria SMCA, just to the north of White Rock (Cambria) SMCA, provides recreational opportunities for year-round visitors, including hiking, fishing, surfing and whale watching. San Simeon State Park to the north has a campground. Hearst Castle, former home of William Randolph Hearst, is at nearby Hearst San Simeon State Historical Monument and offers visitor tours. Elephant Seals can be viewed at Piedras Blancas 10 miles to the north. California’s marine protected areas encourage recreational and educational uses of the ocean. Activities such as kayaking, diving, snorkeling, and swimming are allowed unless otherwise restricted. Scientific monitoring As specified by the Marine Life Protection Act, select marine protected areas along California’s central coast are being monitored by scientists to track their effectiveness and learn more about ocean health. Similar studies in marine protected areas located off of the Santa Barbara Channel Islands have already detected gradual improvements in fish size and number. Local institutions involved in the monitoring include Stanford University’s Hopkins Marine Station, University of California Santa Cruz, Moss Landing Marine Laboratories and Cal Poly San Luis Obispo. Research methods include hook-and-line sampling, intertidal and scuba diver surveys, fish traps and the use of Remote Operated Vehicle (ROV) submarines.

Museum of Arts and Popular Customs of Seville
alt=|thumb|Mudéjar Pavilion, Museum of Arts and Popular Customs of Seville The Museum of Arts and Popular Customs of Seville () is a museum in Seville, Andalusia, Spain, located in the María Luisa Park, across the Plaza de América from the Provincial Archeological Museum. The museum had 84,496 visitors in 2007. History The museum occupies the Mudéjar Pavilion (Pabellón Mudéjar) designed by Aníbal González and built in 1914. It served as an art pavilion, the Pabellón de Arte Antiguo, for the Ibero-American Exposition of 1929, when Aníbal González had the opportunity to design several additional permanent buildings for the plaza. As of 2010, the arrangement of exhibits is: Main floor Halls I–II: Díaz Velázquez collections of embroidery and lace. Halls III–V: Temporary exhibitions Halls VI–VII: Recreation of the Díaz Velázquez family dwelling First floor Halls I–II: Apparel, personal adornment, and religious objects Hall III: Musical instruments and popular literature Hall IV: Cultivation of wheat Halls V–VI: Goldsmithing and embroidery Hall VII: Fittings and furniture Lower-ground floor Hall I: Functions of domestic furniture (mobilario) Hall II: Functions of domestic furniture (ajuar) Hall III: Types of domestic containers Hall IV: Traditional offices Hall V: Ceramics and tilemaking Hall VI: Ceramics workshops. Popular use of ceramics Hall VII: Winemaking Hall VIII: La Cartuja (?) and Japanese ceramics Hall IX: Knives and firearms Hall X: Metalwork Hall XI–XII: Various techniques of processing This floor also includes storage areas, archives, audiovisual space, and the restoration studio. Sources: Collections Most of the items in the museum date back to its original collection. The museum was founded as a section of the Museum of Fine Arts, and the largest and most significant portion of the collection came from that museum. Particularly notable are the Aguiar collection of costumbrista paintings; the Soria collection of Oriental porcelain and ivory; and some pieces from the Orleans and Gestoso collections. Other pieces have been donated by other museums, such as a collection of Sevillian azulejos (glazed tiles) donated by the Archeological Museum of Seville, and other donations from the Museo del Pueblo Español (Madrid), the Museum of Fine Arts Valencia, and from various smaller museums in Andalusia. Various people of Seville have also made important donations, filling gaps in the collections; for example, they have donated textiles, agricultural tools, household utensils, and musical instruments. Other pieces were purchased in the 1970s, when the museum came under the aegis of the Ministry of Education and Science. The largest donation after the founding was the 1979 Díaz Velázquez legacy, one of Europe's best collections of embroidery and lace, with nearly 6,000 pieces. Acquisitions since 2000 include the Loty collection of more than 2,000 glass panels depicting details Andalusian cities and life from roughly 1900 to 1936, and the 168-piece Allepuz ethnographic collection. The collection of Andalusian popular ceramics has developed over time, and is rivaled only be the collection at the Museum of Ethnology, Hamburg. The city donated the originals of the posters for the annual Seville Fair (Feria de Abril). The Department of Culture supplemented this with the Mencos collection in the museum, the most complete known collection of lithographs and color photographs of Feria and Semana Santa (Holy Week in Seville) posters. Other acquisitions were the outgrowth of fieldwork: the research of Carmen Ortiz led to the donation of the cooperage workshop of Claudio Bernal, the city's last cooper; Andrés Carretero's work similarly led to the donation of the workshop of guitarmaker Francisco Barba; Esther Fernández work added a gilding workshop; other workshops donated included those of Filigrana, master maker of castanets, and of goldsmith Fernando Marmolejo. Marmolejo was the last in a four-centuries-old family profession, and some of his tools dated back centuries. The museum now has eight workshops on exhibit. Use as a film set The building has been used several times as a set for films or television shows, including the 1974 American film The Wind and the Lion and the 1985 French Film Harem, where it was used as the British Embassy.

PlanetPol
thumb|right|250px|The William Herschel Telescope building PlanetPol was a ground-based, high sensitivity polarimeter based at the William Herschel Telescope on the island of La Palma in the Canary Islands, Spain that has now been decommissioned. It was the most sensitive astronomical visual polarimeter ever built in fractional polarisation, a mantle that since its decommissioning now belongs to HIPPI. Although the device could be used for a wide range of astronomy, its primary use was the detection of extrasolar planets. Observations with the polarimeter in the Canary Islands, which are affected by dust from the Sahara, also identified airborne dust as a source of polarization within our atmosphere. Additionally, PlanetPol provided measurements of the polarization of a few dozen nearby stars, which were later combined with southern hemisphere measurements from PlanetPol's successor, HIPPI, to provide information about the nature of those stars and the distribution of the interstellar medium.

Saturday Night Blues (album)
Saturday Night Blues is a compilation album of recordings by Canadian blues performers, released by Stony Plain Records and the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation in 1991. Subtitled "The Great Canadian Blues Project, Volume 1", the album was released as a tie-in to the CBC Radio program Saturday Night Blues, and was compiled from a mix of previously-released material, new unreleased recordings and performance tapes from the CBC Radio archives. It was one of the first significant compilations of the work of Canadian blues artists. The album was a cowinner, with Loreena McKennitt's The Visit, of the 1992 Juno Award for Best Roots and Traditional Album. A sequel album, Saturday Night Blues: 20 Years, was issued in 2006. Critical response Mark Miller of The Globe and Mail gave the album a mixed review, calling some of the songs excellent but criticizing the album for including only one woman and only one artist from the vibrant blues scene in Quebec. Helen Metella of the Edmonton Journal reviewed the album positively, writing that "these 20 cuts acknowledge the tremendous variety and top drawer quality of northern blues."

Club career Law began his career with Queens Park Rangers making his debut against Sheffield Wednesday at Loftus Road in the final game of the 1987 season, making a total of 20 appearances for the side before being forced into retirement in 1991 due to a tendon injury. Law spent three years outside of football on a backpacking trip around the world, before returning in 1994 after discovering his injury was able to withstand the rigours of professional football. He joined Wolverhampton Wanderers, who were required to pay £34,000 to Law's insurance company for the compensation he had received on retirement and £100,000 to his former club, Queens Park Rangers. During his time with the Wolves, Law was arrested after driving a bus while drunk, later receiving a fine and community service. After initially beginning to establish himself in the first team, Law was forced to undergo ankle reconstruction surgery and never managed to regain his place in the side, eventually moving to Millwall in 1997. He made 47 appearances as club captain in all competitions during his first season at The New Den and remained a regular in the first team at the start of the following season before a knee injury forced him out of the side after less than one month of the 1998–99 season. He was later released by Millwall in 2000, never playing professional football again.International careerLaw played for Wales U15 schoolboys, represented and captained the youth team at U16, U18, and U21s, as well as the B team against England at Tranmere (5/12/90). Despite having only played a handful of games for Queens Park Rangers, Law was called up to the Wales senior squad in September 1988 (Holland) when, Rangers coach and Wales assistant manager, Peter Shreeves recommended him to Wales manager Terry Yorath after an injury crisis had resulted in a large number of withdrawals from the squad. He was an unused substitute against Holland, Italy, and Malta; however, he was handed his debut on 25 April 1990 in a 4-2 defeat to Sweden. Law was recalled to the squad, after his 2-year retirement from the game, for the 3-1 defeat away to Bulgaria (29/3/95).After footballFollowing his retirement, Law earned a degree in sports science after undertaking a three-year course at Roehampton University. designed to give teenagers in Birmingham access to sports such as football, hockey and streetball as well as set up musical workshops, resulting in Urban Chart success, reaching Number 7 with 'Detention' Artist : C4 ft Romo.

Child Behavior Checklist
The Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL) is a widely used caregiver report form identifying problem behavior in children. It is widely used in both research and clinical practice with youths. It has been translated into more than 90 languages, and normative data are available integrating information from multiple societies. Because a core set of the items have been included in every version of the CBCL since the 1980s, it provides a meter stick for measuring whether amounts of behavior problems have changed over time or across societies. This is a helpful complement to other approaches for looking at rates of mental-health issues, as the definitions of disorders have changed repeatedly over the same time frame. It is a component in the Achenbach System of Empirically Based Assessment developed by Thomas M. Achenbach. Versions and nature of test Across versions, the first pages of the CBCL record demographic information and ratings of positive behaviors, academic functioning (school aged version only), and social competence. The last two pages list common behavior problems, each listed as a brief statement about the child's behavior, e.g., Acts too young for his/her age. Responses are recorded on a Likert scale: 0 Not True, 1 Somewhat or Sometimes True, 2 Very True or Often True. The Child Behavior Checklist exists in two different versions, depending on the age of the child being referred to. Pre-school For the preschool version of the CBCL (CBCL/1½-5), parents or others who interact with the child in regular contexts rate the child's behavior. Respondents rate the child's behavior on a 3-point scale (not true, somewhat or sometimes true, and very true or often true), and are instructed to rate the behavior as it occurs now or within the previous two months. This delineation differs from the instructions on other age-versions, due to the fact that rapid development and behavioral changes in the preschool age range are common. The preschool checklist contains 100 problem behavior questions. School-age Like on the preschool version, the school-age version of the CBCL (CBCL/6-18) instructs a respondent who knows the child well (usually a parent or other close caregiver) to report on the child's problems. Alternative measures are available for teachers (the Teacher's Report Form) and the child (the Youth Self Report, for youths age 11 to 18 years). The school-age checklist contains 118 problem behavior questions. Scoring The main scoring for the CBCL is based on statistical groupings of sets of behaviors that typically occur together. The original scale used principal components analysis to group the items, and more recent research has used confirmatory factor analysis to test the structure. Similar questions are grouped into a number of syndrome scale scores, and their scores are summed to produce a raw score for that syndrome. The eight empirically based "narrowband" syndrome scales are: # Aggressive Behavior # Anxious/Depressed # Attention Problems # Rule-Breaking Behavior # Somatic Complaints # Social Problems # Thought Problems # Withdrawn/Depressed. There are two "broadband" made of items that a panel of experts picked as matching parts of the diagnostic criteria for DSM-IV disorders. The CBCL also has a few items that only contribute to the Total score, which were considered clinically important even though too rare to lump into the syndrome scales. The CBCL also uses a normative sample to create standard scores. These compare the raw score to what would be typical compared to responses for youths of the same gender and similar age (the school-aged version splits the age groups into 6–10 years and 11–18 years). The standard scores are scaled so that 50 is average for the youth's age and gender, with a standard deviation of 10 points. Higher scores indicate greater problems. For each syndrome, Internalizing and Externalizing problem scales, and the total score, scores can be interpreted as falling in the normal, borderline, or clinical behavior. Any score that falls below the 93rd percentile is considered normal, scores between the 93–97th percentile are borderline clinical, and any score above the 97th percentile are in the clinical range. Norms take into account both age and gender; there are separate norms for girls and boys, and separate norms for ages 6–11 and ages 12–18. Psychometric properties Reliability Reliability refers to whether the scores are reproducible. Unless otherwise specified, the reliability scores and values come from studies done with a United States population sample. {| class="wikitable" |+ Rubric for evaluating norms and reliability for the General Behavior Inventory extending Hunsley & Mash, 2008 }} !Criterion !Rating (adequate, good, excellent, too good) !Explanation with references |- |Norms |Excellent |National probability samples used to establish norms. |- |Internal Consistency (Cronbach's alpha) |Ranges from Good to Excellent (depending on scale) |Empirically Based Scales |} Diagnostic performance Based on a 2024 systematic literature review and meta analysis commissioned by the Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute (PCORI), the CBCL is the most frequently evaluated tool for the diagnosis of ADHD. Though research evaluating its usefulness has used different cutoffs, and has examined both the attention deficit/hyperactivity problems subscale as well as other CBCL subscales, results have generally shown high levels of sensitivity, indicating that the CBCL can successfully identify between 71 percent and 84 percent of individuals with ADHD as positive for the disorder. Specificity estimates in these same studies show that the CBCL successfully designated between 33 percent and 93 percent of individuals who do not have ADHD as negative for the disorder.

Therapy Guild's training program. She graduated from the Therapy Guild program in 1974. Early career Mellan has been in private practice since 1974 as a psychotherapist specializing in women's issues and in couples conflict resolution. Since 1982, she began specializing in money psychology and money conflict resolution, when she and attorney and friend Michael Goldberg, realized that "money was the last taboo in the therapy office and in life in general." They coined the term "money harmony" and offered a workshop at Sevenoaks Retreat Center in Madison, Va., leading a money psychology group at a Money Conference where Michael Phillips was the keynoter. Impressed by their work, Phillips sponsored a trip to California for Goldberg and Mellan to train other therapists in money psychology work. An article in the ''Washington Post's'' Style section about "Money Madness" appearing around the Christmas season mentioned Mellan (under her previous married name - Mundra) and Goldberg's money personality types. This led to many radio and print interviews, and several years later, Mellan self-published a workbook, Ten Days to Money Harmony. This book came to the attention of George Gibson, head of Walker Publishing in New York City, who invited Mellan to expand her workbook into her first published book. Money psychology work Since 1983, Mellan's private practice expanded to include money-related issues for both individuals and couples. By the 1990s, over half of her practice was money-related. She taught Money Harmony courses at the Washington Ethical Society (for both individuals and couples), and after a financial planner (John Cammack) took one of her workshops, he invited her to speak to local and national financial advisor groups about money and relationships. Mellan developed a specialty in gender differences around money, and couples polarization patterns and money, and began presenting workshops to therapist groups as well (at the Family Therapy Networker Symposium, now the Psychotherapy Networker Symposium, where she spoke almost yearly,) among others.

Capped grope
In mathematics, a grope is a construction used in 4-dimensional topology, introduced by and named by "because of its multitudinous fingers". Capped gropes were used by as a substitute for Casson handles, that (unlike Casson handles) work better for non-simply-connected 4-manifolds. A capped surface in a 4-manifold is roughly a surface together with some 2-disks, called caps, whose boundaries generate the fundamental group of the surface. A capped grope is obtained by repeatedly replacing the caps of a capped surface by another capped surface. Capped surfaces and capped gropes are studied in . References Category:4-manifolds

Pilhes began working as an advertising executive at Air France and then at Publicis as creative director and executive board member, before devoting himself entirely to literature where he views society as a moralist. He was also a director of TF1. He was married on 19 December 1959 to Nicole Ingrand, with whom he has three children: Nathalie, Laurent, and Maria. His best-known work is The Curse.Biography and literary works Family background and youth: the natural child of the Ariège René Jean Laurent Pilhes (pronounced "Pills") came from old families of the Ariège. His great-uncle Victor Pilhes was a deputy in the Second Republic, and he has added that name to his own since his first novel. Pilhes grew up in the Seix region, and the mountains and villages of Ariège influenced many of his novels. An illegitimate child, he was raised by his maternal grandmother. Illegitimacy is also the subject of his first novel, Rhubarb''. René attended college at Saint-Girons, high school in Toulouse and then at Lycée Buffon in Paris, achieving a bachelor's degree. In June 1955, he was sent to Algeria where he became a midshipman and lieutenant after his classes. He stayed there until September 1957 and left marked by the experience. Debut novelist: author publicity On his return from Algeria, René began working for Air France and three-eight as a commercial agent and was politically committed. He campaigned for the CGT, Mendes-France supports and adheres to the PSU. With Jean-Jacques Servan-Schreiber, he founded the Alumni Association of Algeria. He married, and his career evolved; in the early 1960s, Pilhes was still a copywriter at Air France. He then worked at Dorland and Gray before becoming a copywriter at Publicis. He kept his distance from politics and increasingly felt his need to write, especially after the death of his maternal grandmother. His first novel, Rhubarb, appeared in 1965 and was awarded the Prix Médicis. Originally titled The Bastard, his narrator Urban Gorenfan / Aubain Minville relates the quest for identity of a young man not recognized by his father, who seeks to know how the child would have been if he had been legitimate. The facts of the book were invented even though the context of history could be likened to an autobiography. Pilhes also transformed it into a baroque novel with extraordinary adventures. "Take the high ground, do not fear what dictates the imagination, take care of the balance between reality and fiction, these are my constant concerns as a novelist." In 1969, he published his second novel, The Loum, the climbing of whose phallic peak haunts the author's later writings. In this audacious novel with its salacious passages, His Excellency the Lord began climbing, with his old mother, this huge rocky spur that points to the sky in a singular struggle. This book is also presented as a "psychoanalytic epic". René Victor Pilhes says of it: "The Loum is the story of a terrible battle between mother and son. [...] I will, once and for all, demonstrate to you that I am much more powerful than my father and all the men you admired in your life." The book was the subject of a public lecture in Geneva and is included in the anthology of erotic literature by Jean-Jacques Pauvert. 1974: The Curse The Curse (''L'Imprécateur'') was a milestone in the writer's life, as he now devoted himself fully to literature. The topics in The Curse differed from the rest of Pilhes' work, but slapstick and fantasy elements are similar to his earlier works."The author has shifted his gaze from the abdomen of his mother, his unknown father, and some others to the "bottom" of society which he was a contemporary." This novel won the Prix Femina and is a best-seller with 390,000 copies sold. Warmly received by critics, he denounced the failings of the economy, where the unbridled pursuit of profit replaces virtue. Mysterious curses shake the Rosserys and Mitchell company, in the minds of its managers as well as its foundations and direction. A film, directed by Jean-Louis Bertucelli, was made in 1977. After the election of Valéry Giscard d'Estaing to the presidency, he kept up with politics, joined the Socialist Party and actively campaigned in the following years. His fourth novel, The Beast (1976), is more politically engaged than earlier works. It tells the drifts coercive when a group of young people from a village in the Ariège intend to oppose a rally of the Advanced Liberal Youth: "shuns violence is something undemocratic, approve the hunt active minorities is another." Pilhes in the years 1980–1990 In 1981, in Wounds and Bumps, resulting from interviews with Maurice Chavardes, he took stock of his career, re-distanced himself from politics and announced the writing of several novels. He completely abandoned the business world until 1986 (transition to TF1 and Havas). He resumed writing assiduously: nine works appeared between 1985 and 1999. He took a moralistic view of the shortcomings of a society affected by the evils of economic liberalism, the darkness of the past or political machinations. The Pompeii (1985) brings back the dark days of the Occupation and its sequel The Demons of the Court of Rohan (1987) addresses the issue of leftism of the 1970s and its shift into terrorism. In 1988 The Hitler appeared, which aroused some controversy. It tackles the difficult problem of antisemitism in the late twentieth century. Because of conflicts in Palestine, he argues that new anti-Semitism is anti-Zionist. The Fakir (1995) brings back the Algerian past of the master pollster Lenoyer (torture, methods of pacification), a period of which there is silence, whose vicissitudes have serious consequences even today. In Christ (1997) the inhabitants of a village, guardians of the last vestiges of Cathar, see their tranquillity disrupted by the arrival of an American scientific expedition. In 1989 The Ombudsman denounced the excesses of the TV world. It portrays ephemeral stars desperately trying to survive publicly on board a dangerously pitching ship. The subject of corporate executives still interested Pilhes. ''Philidor's position (1992), a detective novel that details ambitious young professionals going to a mountain village where a crime occurs. The next year seems that The False narrates the last days of a finance magnate rediscovering the traditional activities of his reaper ancestors. A television adaptation was to be made in 2003. In his latest novel Henbane (1999), Aubain Minville and Urban Gorenfan, the heroes of Rhubarb'', reappear in an investigation into the murder of a young anti-nuclear activist. The author's style He began by writing two novels that were never published. In Wounds and Bumps, he says in this connection to Maurice Chavardes: "I started writing at the age of twenty. About illegitimacy of course. But then, it was really autobiographical. I could not cope. Then on my return to Algeria, I wrote an essay on that war. [...] I could not face up to my illegitimacy and tell it: 'I am not interested at all in you. [...] You interest me locked up, submissive, naked, open, panting, frightened, hungry, behind the bars of literary creation. It is this reality reinterpreted through the prism of his prints burlesque that marks his writing style. Some characters' names are recurring, such as Nomen, Lenoyer, Gorenfan, Minville. The narrator is sometimes called Pilhes but changes his identity and profession in the various novels. The Ariege and peaceful villages are often part of the adventures of its hero, in the shadow of Loum. JP Damour analyses Pilhes' writing noting his fondness for the winks, the use of narrative platitudes and psychoanalytic clichés (cf. Rhubarb and The Loum): "It arises from the accumulation process ostensibly a baroque composition, often parodic, which sometimes turns the main characters' quest into a sort of epic slapstick." Later life René eventually retired and spent this time surrounded by his six grandchildren. He did not publish in his last ten years but was still writing the third part of Loum announced long beforehand: "The Loum is not finished. It includes only two parts out of three, the ambiguous (Pride and abuse) and the tense (Humor and Humor). The lost part remains to be written." Concerned about the literary legacy he would leave, and willing to defend and promote knowledge of his work, René maintained a blog in which he reported on some critics who had praised him during his career and delivered some keys to reading his novels. He developed and organized his archives with the help of his grandson, Arsene. Of the controversy around The Hitler, twenty years after its release, Pilhes said he has been accused of anti-Semitism and as a result has been subject to legal attack. In the dictionary of Jérôme Garcin, in his own written record just after The Hitler, he justified himself thus: "the author wanted to show a sample of what would be a neo-antisemitic speech. [...] Because it seemed as if we were not careful, fifty years after the Holocaust, we would run right into this situation. [...] The author has done this unequivocally, without ulterior motives, in order to serve democracy and tolerance. But the Jewish community does not believe or pretends not to believe it. [...] Worse he is accused of antisemitism. What more can he do? We must think about it. And weigh what is left behind."

It had a bore with a length of (50 calibre) and fired shell for a distance of (in single mount version) or (in the later twin mounts). The gun was first used in single casemates on the Kongō-class battlecruisers and Fusō-class battleships and later in the Agano-class light cruisers in twin mountings. History The Type 41 was a Japanese version of the Vickers "Mark M", originally introduced by Vickers-Armstrong (Barrow) as the secondary battery for the Kongō-class. These original guns were designated by the Japanese Navy as the "Mark II", whereas the Japanese-designed copy (adopted from 1912) were designated as the "Mark III". In the 1930s, the Kongō-class were modernized, at which time these guns were replaced by new 12.7 cm/40 DP guns. The old guns were placed in storage and were reused on the Agano-class. Some were taken to Guam and were used for coastal defense batteries. In the Agano-class, the gun could elevate to 55° for anti-aircraft fire; however, its manual loading method allowed a rate of fire of only about 6 rounds per minute, which significantly limited its utility as an anti-aircraft weapon.

Markstein number
In combustion engineering and explosion studies, the Markstein number (named after George H. Markstein who first proposed the notion in 1951) characterizes the effect of local heat release of a propagating flame on variations in the surface topology along the flame and the associated local flame front curvature. There are two dimensionless Markstein numbers: one is the curvature Markstein number and the other is the flow-strain Markstein number. They are defined as: \mathcal{M}_c \frac{\mathcal{L}_c}{\delta_L}, \quad \mathcal{M}_s \frac{\mathcal{L}_s}{\delta_L} where \mathcal{L}_c is the curvature Markstein length, \mathcal{L}_s is the flow-strain Markstein length and \delta_L is the characteristic laminar flame thickness. The larger the Markstein length, the greater the effect of curvature on localised burning velocity. George H. Markstein (1911—2011) showed that thermal diffusion stabilized the curved flame front and proposed a relation between the critical wavelength for stability of the flame front, called the Markstein length, and the thermal thickness of the flame. Phenomenological Markstein numbers with respect to the combustion products are obtained by means of the comparison between the measurements of the flame radii as a function of time and the results of the analytical integration of the linear relation between the flame speed and either flame stretch rate or flame curvature. The burning velocity is obtained at zero stretch, and the effect of the flame stretch acting upon it is expressed by a Markstein length. Because both flame curvature and aerodynamic strain contribute to the flame stretch rate, there is a Markstein number associated with each of these components. Clavin–Williams formula The Markstein number with respect to the unburnt gas mixture was derived by Paul Clavin and Forman A. Williams in 1982, using activation energy asymptotics. The formula was extended to include temperature dependences on the thermal conductivities by Paul Clavin and Pedro Luis Garcia Ybarra in 1983. The Clavin–Williams formula is given by \mathcal{M} = \frac{r}{r-1} \mathcal{J} + \frac{\beta(Le_{\mathrm{eff}}-1)}{2(r-1)} \mathcal{I}, where \mathcal{J} \int_1^r \frac{\lambda(\theta)}{\theta}d\theta, \quad \mathcal{I} \int_1^r \frac{\lambda(\theta)}{\theta} \ln\frac{r-1}{\theta-1}\,d\theta. Here r>1 is the gas expansion ratio defined with density ratio; \beta is the Zel'dovich number; Le_{\mathrm{eff}} is the effective Lewis number of the deficient reactant (either fuel or oxidizer or a combination of both); \lambda(\theta)\rho D_T/\rho_u D_{T,u} is the ratio of density-thermal conductivity product to its value in the unburnt gas; \thetaT/T_u is the ratio of temperature to its unburnt value, defined such that 1\leq \theta \leq r. The function \lambda(\theta), in most cases, is simply given by \lambda \theta^n, where n0.7, in which case, we have \mathcal{J} \frac{1}{n}(r^n-1), \quad \mathcal{I} \frac{1}{n}(r^n-1)\ln(r-1)-\int_{1}^r \theta^{n-1}\ln(\theta-1) d\theta. In the constant transport coefficient assumption, \lambda=1, in which case, we have \mathcal{J} \ln r , \quad \mathcal I -\mathrm{Li_2}[-(r-1)] where \mathrm{Li_2} is the dilogarithm function.

Piccadilly, City and North East London Railway
__NOTOC__ The Piccadilly, City and North East London Railway (PC&NELR) was a tube railway in London proposed in 1902. The railway was to run from Southgate to Hammersmith and Shepherd's Bush via Palmers Green, Tottenham, Stoke Newington, Dalston, Shoreditch, the City of London, the West End and Kensington. The PC&NELR was formed from the combination of three earlier railway schemes proposed in 1901; the Piccadilly and City Railway and the North East London Railway and part of the London United Electric Railway (LUER). The railway was supported by American financier J. P. Morgan and London United Tramways (LUT), whose network of tram routes in west London would provide passengers for the railway at Hammersmith. Although looked on favourably in Parliament, consideration of the PC&NELR's bills was delayed while they and a number of other tube railway bills were evaluated. During the delay, Morgan's representatives fell out with the LUT over the division of the ownership of the group, and, in September 1902, Sir George White, chairman of the LUT, sold the company to Speyer Brothers, a finance house led by Edgar Speyer. Speyer Brothers was one of the backers of the rival underground railway schemes being developed by Charles Yerkes' Underground Electric Railways Company of London (UERL). In a message to his London representative, Sir Clinton Dawkins, Morgan described the transaction as "the greatest rascality and conspiracy I ever heard of." With the LUT and the LUER portions of the PC&NELR route under its control, Speyer Brothers withdrew the bill to construct the western LUER portion of the PC&NELR route, which duplicated part of the route of the UERL's Brompton and Piccadilly Circus Railway. The withdrawn section of the route was critical to the construction of the PC&NELR as a whole, and Morgan's representatives attempted to get permission from Parliament to proceed with the remaining part of the line, but this was denied and the PC&NELR's bills were withdrawn. The PC&NELR scheme was not revived, although the UERL, which took control of the LUT, did use the tram network to feed passengers into its own Great Northern, Piccadilly and Brompton Railway at Hammersmith when that opened in December 1906.

TSPTALK
TSP TALK is an online web communications website and forum established for federal employees and military personnel. It was originally created in 2004 by former federal employee and computer specialist Tom Crowley. Though the board includes topics on various areas, the principal topic of the board is discussion surrounding investment strategies of various Thrift Savings Plan (TSP) retirement funds, specifically oriented toward individuals who preferred to change strategies depending on overall market conditions. The purpose was to help educate shareholders about investment planning and self-help. Some investment styles and subjects were highlighted in fedsmith.com, another publication aimed at federal employees. The article comments included references to several competing websites, of which TSP TALK was the most often cited by readers. TSP TALK was identified in a trade publication for federal executives in November 2006 as one of several sites providing collaboration and discussions relating to federal employee investments. At the time, federal employees shared discussions of investment strategies, allocation theories, and held competitions on a member invented tracking listing showing daily returns. TSPTALK.COM first appeared in major government employee press article in a November 2006 article published in GOVEXEC.COM. TSP TALK members became known as TSP TALKERS, and posted a wide range of information, including investment chart theory, reading charts, detecting trading signals, and occasionally political commentary. The website became controversial in mid-2007 and early 2008, when the FRTIB (Federal Retirement Thrift Investment Board) cited frequent reallocation of savings by members of the group, and issued a ban on trades of more than two moves per month. The stated intention was to reduce costs for the funds. The board proposed new regulations to counter employees controlling their own investment funds. The changes were published as a notice of federal rule making published in the Federal Register on January 16, 2008, and were proposed to be effective March 31, 2008. TSP TALK members responded by creating a petition and submitted more than 4,000 signatures opposing the move. However, despite shareholder opposition, and as a result, changed federal regulations restricting moves between funds to two per month between all funds, and further moves to the G Fund only. As a result of the ban, trading costs actually increased, rather than decreased. For 2009, costs increased 32%.

John Witt Randall

He was the son of Dr. John Randall (1774–1843), and his wife, Elizabeth Wells Randall (1783–1868). Dr. Randall was an eminent physician and dentist, with three degrees from Harvard College (A.B. 1802, M.B. 1806, M.D. 1811), and Elizabeth Randall was a granddaughter of the American Founding Father Samuel Adams. After they married in 1809, John and Elizabeth Randall lived at 5 Winter Street, a wood-framed house with a garden on the southeast corner of Winter Street at Winter Place (the home, from 1784 until he died in 1803, of Samuel Adams and, until she died in 1808, of his widow Elizabeth Adams). Around 1830, Adams' old house was replaced by Dr. Randall's new one, and the address changed to 20 Winter Street. The family lived there until Dr. Randall died in 1843. Notwithstanding his Boston residency, Randall retained an attachment to his family's farm in Stow, Massachusetts, on which he grew up. The success of his medical practice allowed him to buy his siblings' interest in the property, after which "he built a new and more comfortable dwelling-house near the site of the original homestead, which had fallen into decay; and it became a cherished summer resort for him and his family." According to Randall's friend and literary executor, Francis Ellingwood Abbot, Randall's "whole boyhood and youth had been embittered by unhappy relations with his father" for "Dr. John Randall was a man of iron will, disguised to the world by great suavity and polish of manner, but manifested to his family in a despotic and often capricious arbitrariness that brought much misery to those whom, doubtless, he sincerely loved." Education Randall attended Mr. Green's school in Jamaica Plain and at the Boston Latin School. He entered Harvard College, graduating in the class of 1834. At Boston Latin and Harvard, Randall was considered eccentric. Thomas Cushing, a contemporary who attended both schools with Randall, wrote that "his peculiar and marked originality of character is well remembered [by his classmates]. Though among them, he was not wholly of them, but seemed to have thoughts, pursuits and aspirations to which they were strangers." Cushing recalled how Randall formed an interest in natural science while at Harvard, noting, "His tastes developed in a scientific direction, entomology being the branch to which he devoted himself. The college at that time did little to encourage such pursuits, but he pursued the even tenor of his way till he had made a very fine collection of insects, and extensive and thorough knowledge on that and kindred subjects, while his taste for poetry and the belles-lettres was also highly cultivated". Compelled by his father to study medicine, attended Harvard Medical School. In 1836, while a student at the Harvard Medical School, Randall accepted an appointment as consulting Zoologist to the United States Exploring Expedition, organized to explore and survey the Pacific Ocean, but resigned before the expedition set to sea in August 1838. In an 1892 obituary notice, one scientific journal noted that Randall was known "to the present generation of entomologists as the author of two papers descriptive of the Coleptera of Maine and Massachusetts published more than fifty years ago in the second volume of the Boston journal of natural history.” His Harvard Medical classmate, Henry Blanchard, wrote that Randall was "a very learned man, and in natural science distinguished...had he been allowed by his father to follow his inclination, I have little doubt he would have been a distinguished man — distinguished as a scientist, a more useful and happier man. His father was determined he should adopt medicine as a profession. The son might have enjoyed it as a study, but the practice of it as a pursuit would have been abhorrent". Randall graduated with an M.D. from the Harvard Medical School in 1839, but never practiced. Later life According to Abbot, after Randall's father died in 1843, "the son lived on, educated for a professional career he abhorred, diverted from the scientific and literary career he desired, and driven into a seclusion from the world which his early companions beheld in dull, uncomprehending wonder.” Randall inherited his father's estate and thenceforth, wrote Abbot, "passed his life in leisure and retirement from the world," nurturing his family's property on behalf of his mother and sisters, expanding and developing the house and grounds at Stow, and indulging his taste for literature and the fine arts. Between 1843 and the outbreak of the Civil War, he accumulated a collection of some 575 drawings and 15,000 etchings and engravings, intending to illustrate the whole history of the art. In an autobiographical sketch written in 1884 for the 50th anniversary of his Harvard class, Randall summarized his literary accomplishments: <blockquote> As to my literary works, — if I except scientific papers on subjects long ago abandoned, [such] as one on Crustacea in the Transactions of the Academy of Natural Sciences of Philadelphia; two on insects in the Transactions of the Boston Society of Natural History; one manuscript volume on the animals and plants of Maine...; Critical notes on Etchers and Engravers, one volume; classification of ditto, one volume, both in manuscript incomplete and not likely to be completed, together with essays and reviews not likely to be published, — my doings reduce themselves to six volumes of poetic works, the first of which was issued in 1856, and reviewed shortly after in the North American, while the others, nearly or partially completed at the outbreak of the civil war, still lie unfinished among the many wrecks of Time, painful to many of us to look back upon, or reflect themselves upon a Future whose skies are as yet obscure. </blockquote>During the last 25 years of life, Abbot had observed a change in his friend, which he called a "puzzling phenomenon."<blockquote> ...the apparent diversion of a most serious, lofty and unworldly spirit to the accumulation of worldly wealth. By his own ability and indomitable energy, he multiplied the comfortable family inheritance into a great fortune, ten times as large as he found it. From the period of the Civil War, he almost wholly ceased to increase his invaluable art collections, or to take much interest in the writing of poetry...in the winters, I found him, when I entered his study, bending grimly over a vast mass of maps, railroad reports, statistical tables, and business documents of all sorts. He was studying out for himself, at first hand, the foundations and elements and necessary conditions of all that vast activity in railroad development which in a generation created a new America. </blockquote>Randall died a bachelor in Boston on January 25, 1892, at the age of 78. He was buried in Boston's Mount Auburn Cemetery. His friend Francis Abbot attended the funeral and later recalled, "On Thursday, January 28th, a small company gathered at the house. The funeral services were conducted by Rev. Dr. Edward Everett Hale, and all that could die of John Witt Randall was laid to rest at Mt. Auburn. Three of us, Miss [Belinda] Randall and Miss O'Reilly and myself, followed him together in one carriage, at her request, to the family tomb." Legacy Randall prepared no will, and his estate passed to his only surviving sibling, Belinda Lull Randall. She made many charitable donations, both before and after her death in 1897. Among her beneficiaries were Harvard University, the town of Stow, and many charitable institutions.In April 1892, she created a charitable trust, J. W. Randall Fund, with $500,000 ($ in today's money). In May 1892, the treasurer of Harvard University reported that following her brother's wishes, she gave the college his collection of engravings and $30,000 to establish the John Witt Randall Fund that would generate income for the care and preservation of the engravings. That same year, she made a gift of $55,000 to the town of Stow: $20,000 for general purposes, $10,000 for poor relief, and $25,000 for the construction of a library building. The library was built in 1893 and dedicated in February 1894 as the Randall Library. The new library was initially furnished with 700 books donated to the town by John Randall from his private library. In 1897, the Randall Fund gave Harvard University a large sum, including $10,000 toward the Phillips Brooks House, an endowment to Radcliffe, and $10,000 for the construction of a new dining hall, known as Randall Hall.

Eiríkur Magnússon
Eiríkr or Eiríkur Magnússon (1 February 1833 – 24 January 1913) was an Icelandic scholar at the University of Cambridge, who taught Old Norse to William Morris, translated numerous Icelandic sagas into English in collaboration with him, and played an important role in the movement to study the history and literature of the Norsemen in Victorian England. Biography Born in Berufjörður in the east of Iceland, Eiríkr was sent to England in 1862 by the Icelandic Bible Society, and his first translations there were of mediaeval Christian texts. In 1871, with the assistance of Sir Henry Holland, 1st Baronet and of Alexander Beresford Hope, MP for Cambridge, he became an under-librarian at the Cambridge University Library, where he worked until the end of 1909. In 1893 he also became lecturer in Icelandic. Eiríkr lectured and organised famine relief for Iceland in 1875 and 1882 and fell out with Guðbrandur Vigfússon, a fellow Icelandic scholar who was at Oxford and had been his friend, over that and his preference for modernised Icelandic in translating the Bible; Guðbrandur was a purist. Like many Icelandic scholars in Britain at the time, Eiríkr gave Icelandic lessons as a source of income; his first pupil was probably Sir Edmund Walker Head, 8th Baronet in 1863, and he taught some by post. Another was George E. J. Powell, who had supported him financially when he first came to England and with whom he translated Jón Arnason's Icelandic folktales and worked on a translation of Hávarðar saga Ísfirðings that remained unpublished. Most famously, he taught William Morris and collaborated with him on translating a number of sagas. Within a year of Morris beginning his studies with Eiríkr, their Story of Grettir the Strong was published (1869). In 1870 they published the first English translation of Völsungasaga. In 1871 Eiríkr and his wife accompanied Morris to Iceland, where Eiríkr went with Morris on a tour of "saga steads" and other places of interest. Between 1891 and 1905 they published a six-volume Saga Library, which included Heimskringla and the first English translations of Hávarðar saga Ísfirðings, Hænsa-Þóris saga and Eyrbyggja Saga. Eiríkr defended Morris against York Powell's criticism of his archaic style. Volume 6 of the Saga Library, volume 4 of the Heimskringla, is an index that is entirely Eiríkr's work, published in 1905 after Morris's death. Eiríkr was married to Sigríður Einarsdóttir, a descendant of Egill Skallagrímsson. She campaigned to improve education for girls in Iceland. He is buried in the Mill Road cemetery, Cambridge.

Export of cryptography
The export of cryptography is the transfer from one country to another of devices and technology related to cryptography. In the early days of the Cold War, the United States and its allies developed an elaborate series of export control regulations designed to prevent a wide range of Western technology from falling into the hands of others, particularly the Eastern bloc. All export of technology classed as 'critical' required a license. CoCom was organized to coordinate Western export controls. Many countries, notably those participating in the Wassenaar Arrangement, introduced restrictions. The Wassenaar restrictions were largely loosened in the late 2010s.
