# Acacia mooreana

***Acacia mooreana*** is a shrub belonging to the genus *Acacia* and the subgenus *Phyllodineae* that is endemic to south western Australia.

## Description

The erect, slender and pungent shrub typically grows to a height of 0.2 to 1 metre (0.7 to 3.3 ft). It has glabrous to sparsely haired and yellow-ribbed branchlets. Like most species of *Acacis* it has phyllodes rather than true leaves. The pungent and g;abrous, evergreen phyllodes have an inequilateral and obtriangular shape that are 4 to 6 mm (0.16 to 0.24 in) in length and a width of 3 to 6 mm (0.12 to 0.24 in) with a midrib near the abaxial margin. It blooms from May to September and produces yellow-cream flowers.

## Taxonomy

The species was first formally described by the botanist William Vincent Fitzgerald in 1904 in the work *Additions to the West Australian Flora* as published in the *Journal of the West Australian Natural History Society*. It was reclassified by Leslie Pedley in 2003 as *Racosperma mooreanum* then transferred back to genus *Acacia* in 2006.

## Distribution

It is native to an area along the south coast in the South West and Great Southern regions of Western Australia where it is commonly situated along drainage lines or in swampy areas growing in sandy soils often over and around laterite. The bulk of the population is found from around Yallingup in the west to Boyanup in the north down to August in the south west to around Nannup in the south east where it is usually found as a part of *Eucalyptus* forest communities.

abstract: The Economic Research Center (ERC) is a policy-research oriented nonprofit think tank founded in 1999 that strives to facilitate sustainable economic development and good governance in the New Public Management system of Azerbaijan. The Azerbaijani authorities have made it illegal for NGOs to receive foreign funding in 2014 and in addition to that the bank accounts of the Economic research center were frozen. The Economic Research Center could not function in the same way afterwards and ceased its research for several years. In 2015 during a police raid the computers and documents were seized. This raid was a part of ta larger crackdown on NGOs in Azerbaijan. The acts of the authorities were challenged in courts and it became a matter of a case at the ECtHR in which the court ruled that the bank accounts are to be reopened.

## Research

Before the crackdown and freezing of the accounts, the ERC focused on monitoring and scrutinizing the government spending, the budget and policies.

Since 2018 the ERC restarted publishing its reports and monitoring data, such as its report on the Azerbaijani government's mine removal efforts in Karabakh that shows that prime agricultural land in the region was seized by Aliyev's family and his closest allies. The other report from 2019 has presented the data that shows the cotton industry in Azerbaijan using child labor, forcing students into working and committing other labor and human rights violations.


title: Aeranthes grandiflora

abstract: Aeranthes grandiflora is a species of orchid and is the type species of its genus. It is native to Madagascar and Comoros. It is characterized by long, spindly, naturally hanging inflorescences and relatively large, semi-translucent flowers which open successively over a long period of time. A gardener must not cut the inflorescence after the first flower has faded, as these plants rebloom abundantly. Home culture for this species is among the easiest of any orchid. A gardener can give them small pots of small-grade bark and moss with medium-warm temperatures and place them under low light of any orientation or even fluorescent lights.

title: 1939 Grand Prix season

abstract: The 1939 Grand Prix season was the seventh AIACR European Championship season. The championship winner was never officially announced by the AIACR due to the outbreak of World War II less than two weeks after the final event in Switzerland. The Italian GP initially had been a fifth event, but it became clear well before the war that it would be cancelled due to construction work. At that time, it was also undecided which scoring system would be used, the old minimum points system that basically counted positions, or the French maximum points system similar to the modern one. Although Hermann Paul Müller would have won the championship on points according to the old system, the president of Nazi Germany's highest motorsports organisation declared Hermann Lang the champion. Lang was clearly the dominating driver in that season, which was acknowledged by the international press. In the first two of the four championship events, both Lang and Müller won once while the other failed to complete 75% of the distance. The German round saw Lang retiring early, and Müller finishing 2nd behind Caracciola. This left Müller in the lead in both scoring systems, as published in magazines, with the Swiss round deciding the outcome. Müller finished 4th behind three Mercedes, which gave him the lead in the old point system, while in front, Lang had beaten Caracciola for the lead in the maximum points system.

The German round saw Lang retiring early, and Müller finishing 2nd behind Caracciola. This left Müller in the lead in both scoring systems, as published in magazines, with the Swiss round deciding the outcome. Müller finished 4th behind three Mercedes, which gave him the lead in the old point system, while in front, Lang had beaten Caracciola for the lead in the maximum points system.

title: Allan Cartner

abstract: Allan Cartner was a television continuity announcer, working primarily for Border Television. Cartner, born and brought up in Carlisle, graduated from Durham University with a BA before starting his career in 1957 as an outside broadcast cameraman based at the BBC's Lime Grove studios in London and latterly, Manchester. He joined Border Television on 5 October 1961, five weeks after the station went to air for the first time. His first on-air link consisted of a five-minute long Farming Prices bulletin. He would remain at Border Television for the next 27 years – 26 of those as chief announcer. Along with other Border TV announcers, Cartner read regular Border News bulletins during the day and until the mid-1980s, the main news round-up within Lookaround. He also presented Border Diary, Pigeon Release Times and The First Day of The Week. Cartner's voice was also heard on various Border-produced documentaries, networked as part of the daytime About Britain strand on ITV. As well as working for Border, Cartner was a regular announcer for Tyne Tees Television during the 1970s. He returned to the Newcastle station as a freelancer after resigning from Border in 1988. Unlike other such announcers as Bill Steel and Kathy Secker, Cartner opted to make the majority of his announcements on Tyne Tees out-of-vision. On 16 March 1996, Cartner made the last announcement from the Tyne Tees studios at City Road. He died 17 months later, aged 63.

# Dyce F.C.

**Dyce Football Club** (formerly  **Dyce Juniors Football Club**) are a Scottish football club from Dyce, a suburb of Aberdeen. Members of the Scottish Junior Football Association, they currently play in the SJFA North Superleague. The club are based at Ian Mair Park and their colours are blue and white hoops.

## History

Dyce Juniors were established in 1989 following the amalgamation of two existing sides, **Mugiemoss F.C.** (founded 1887) and **Rosslyn Sport F.C.** (founded 1923 as **Rosemount**). The merger was spurred by problems both clubs faced concerning their home grounds. The Linksfield Stadium facility in Aberdeen, which Mugiemoss shared with two other sides, Lewis United and Parkvale, was due to undergo redevelopment, reducing the number of pitches available. Rosslyn Sport were struggling to maintain their own Rosslyn Park ground in Dyce. With both sides wishing to retain their own name, a compromise of Dyce Juniors was chosen and the club set up at Rosslyn Park. Within one season, disagreements at committee level led to the resignation of the previous Rosslyn Sport officials, leaving the club as essentially Mugiemoss F.C. playing under the Dyce Juniors banner. The Dyce club colours are blue and white hoops, but have retained the Mugiemoss tradition by using their black and white stripes as the change kit. The Rosslyn Park ground continued to prove troublesome, requiring new dressing rooms to be constructed and in 2000 the stadium was renamed Ian Mair Park in memory of a club official who died.

The team have been managed since December 2018 by Allan Youngson and Ritchie Clark.

title: 'Tage Mahal

abstract: 'Tage Mahal is a 2004 release by Jon Oliva's Pain. It was the first non-Savatage related release by Jon Oliva since 1994's Doctor Butcher. Ironically, just like Savatage, the band faced a problem with its name. Oliva originally wanted to call the band 'Tage Mahal, as a homage to Savatage, although Oliva admits he could have called the band "Savatage, or Jon Oliva's Savatage, or Savatage Lite, but I didn't do that out of respect for the guys that were in Savatage." Prior to the album's release, Oliva discovered a blues musician Taj Mahal. Under the Consumer Confusion law, the album would have been pulled off the shelves, despite the 'Tage spelling. Instead of holding the record up thinking of a new title, Oliva instructed SPV to simply swap the titles around. Oliva noted the album was "received great, but it sold shit because the record company didn't do anything with it" because Oliva believes the label wanted a new Savatage record, but both Oliva and long-time producer, Paul O'Neill said no. As a result, on the band's 2006 and 2007 tours, the band has not performed songs from the album as part of their set. The only song on the album not credited solely to Oliva, "The Nonsensible Ravings of the Lunatic Mind", which was co-written by Savatage guitarist Chris Caffery, is an outtake from Savatage's most recent release, 2001's Poets and Madmen.

In 1965, he started a second career in publishing, eventually becoming publisher of a number of Canadian national newspapers and magazines, including the *Financial Post*, *Canadian Business*, and *Small Business*.

## Early years

Singleton-Wood was born in Newport, Monmouthshire, Wales. He attended St. Julian's High School, where he graduated with a London University Matriculation. He studied law at London University but discontinued an LLB degree to become a professional musician.

## Music career

Singleton-Wood, who used the stage name Allan Wood, was a professional pianist, bandleader, and composer when, in 1960, he was named music director of the BBC Welsh Dance Orchestra, broadcasting on the BBC Radio Wales series "Swing For Your Supper" and then on the national BBC TV series "Swing High." This was the last big band series ever to appear on BBC TV. Singleton-Wood also composed songs for the orchestra, including its signature tune, "Swing High."

As Music Director of the BBC Welsh Dance Orchestra, Singleton-Wood gave The Springfields vocal group featuring Dusty Springfield its first radio broadcast in Wales.

In 1963, he was pianist for Shirley Bassey with the Ken Mackintosh Orchestra in a tour of Scotland.

In 1968, Singleton-Wood moved to Canada and joined Moxie Whitney's orchestra at the Imperial Room at the Royal York Hotel, Toronto. On Whitney's retirement in 1971, Singleton-Wood took over the contract for the provision of music at the Hotel including the Black Knight and Imperial Rooms. The Allan Singleton-Wood Orchestra, meanwhile, became one of the best-known dance orchestras in Canada.

## Publishing career

In the 1970s, while continuing to lead the Allan Singleton-Wood Orchestra and booking other musical acts at the Royal York Hotel, Singleton-Wood pursued a second career, in publishing. In 1971, he became research director of the *Financial Post*. In 1973, he was appointed general manager of Maclean-Hunter's Media Research Evaluation Group, overseeing research for the publications *Maclean's*, *Chatelaine*, *Flare*, and the *Financial Post*. In this capacity he pioneered the development of the first media computer evaluation program in Canada, which gave birth to the national Print Measurement Bureau. In 1978, he became Director of Advertising Sales for the *Financial Post*. Beginning in 1988, he became publisher of a number of national newspapers and magazines, including the *Financial Post*, *Canadian Business*, and *Small Business*. He was appointed Senior Corporate Publisher for Rogers Business Publishing in 1991, a position he kept until his retirement in 1994.

Singleton-Wood was founder in 1995 of the Canadian Information Productivity Awards (CIPA), which, during its run from 1995 to 2007, became the preeminent information technology awards show in the world. Singleton-Wood came out of retirement in 1995 to take over the position of president and CEO of the award show's parent company, CIPA Ltd., owned by Rogers Communications Inc. and Ernst and Young.

Singleton-Wood retired again, at the age of 71, in 2004. Since his retirement, he has held a number of positions in Victoria, including communications director for the Conservative Party and public relations director for the Rotary Club. In 2011, he was Chairman of the Congress of Traditional Anglicans. He is co-founder of the Traditional Anglican Church of Canada.


title: Alliance for a Democratic Mauritania

abstract: The Alliance for a Democratic Mauritania was a Mauritanian clandestine opposition movement. The AMD was organized in May 1980, around former President Moktar Ould Daddah, after he had gone into exile in Paris, France, following the 1978 coup d'état that overthrew him; and former military leader Col. Mustafa Ould Salek. It demanded a multi-party democracy in Mauritania, although the regime countered that Ould Daddah had in fact presided over a one-party state, and Ould Salek over a junta. The movement enjoyed support from Morocco and pro-Moroccan states in the Gulf region, and at the very least, it was allowed to organize in France. The formation of the AMD took place in the context of the Western Sahara war, which Ould Daddah had fought in alliance with Morocco, but from which the present leader, Col. Mohamed Khouna Ould Heidallah, had withdrawn. On March 18, 1981, the AMD organized a coup d'état of its own against Heidallah's CMSN junta, but the action failed. Some of the responsible in Mauritania were arrested, and subsequently executed. This prompted Heidallah to seek closer relations with the Western Saharan Polisario Front, and with its backer and Morocco's main rival in the region, Algeria.

***12 and Holding*** is a 2005 American coming-of-age drama film directed by Michael Cuesta and starring Conor Donovan, Jesse Camacho, Zoe Weizenbaum, and Jeremy Renner. The film is distributed by IFC Films and was released on May 19, 2006 in limited theaters.

## Plot

12-year-olds Rudy Carges and his overweight friend Leonard Fisher spend the night inside their treehouse after teenage bullies Jeff and Kenny threaten to destroy it. Jeff and Kenny arrive and set the treehouse on fire, not knowing Rudy and Leonard were in there until too late. Leonard escapes unharmed but then falls to the ground unconscious, while Rudy is burned to death offscreen. Rudy's twin brother Jacob, a boy with a huge birthmark, decides to seek revenge against the bullies. At the hospital, Leonard recovers and finds out he lost his sense of taste and smell. Leonard is then prompted by his gym teacher to go on a diet, which isn't welcomed by his obese family. The boys' female friend Malee tries to befriend an adult named Gus, a grief-stricken patient of her therapist mother Carla. Jacob's family falls apart after the death of his brother, but soon after they adopt a boy named Keith Gardner. Meanwhile, Malee begins to have a crush on Gus and changes the song for her recital to one Gus liked. As time goes by, she sees Gus as her "soul mate". She sneaks into his house one night to find him grieving. Afraid to confront him, Malee steals his gun and leaves. She gives the gun to Jacob the following day.

Jacob's mother gets furious when she finds out Jeff and Kenny are being put in juvenile hall for only one year, while Jacob's father views Rudy's death as an accident. Jacob spends the next few months visiting Jeff and Kenny, and threatens them, until eventually Jeff commits suicide. Jacob sees Kenny grieving, so Jacob forgives and befriends Kenny; soon learning Kenny has an early release and is illegally moving to New Mexico. Meanwhile, Leonard's father decides to take his sisters to Florida instead of Leonard (who would usually go). Leonard decides to force his mother to lose weight by trapping her in the cellar. They both end up in the hospital after a gas leak in their home. Next, Jacob and Kenny agree that Jacob can go with him to New Mexico. Malee visits Gus and removes her clothes in an attempt to seduce him. Instead, Gus calls Malee's mother to come and pick her up. The next day, Gus explains to therapist Carla about the last fire he ever fought (which involved killing an injured little girl, upon the girl's request), claiming that Malee wanted him to take her pain away, as he was aware of her growing crush on him.

Meanwhile, Jacob's mother tells him that Keith Gardner wasn't adopted to replace Rudy, and that she wants Kenny dead, which reminds Jacob of his planned revenge. The night of escape for Jacob finally comes and he meets up with Kenny. Jacob insists on going through a construction site which he says is a secret route. Once there, Jacob points Gus's gun at Kenny, and tells him "you killed him" before shooting him dead. Jacob buries the body and leaves. He returns in the daytime, and sees Gus spreading cement above Kenny's grave, knowing the evidence is gone.

Malee begins visiting her estranged father and Leonard's family finally starts eating healthily. Jacob returns home without telling anyone what he did.

## Cast

## Reception

*12 and Holding* received generally positive reviews from critics. On the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, the film has a 73% approval rating, based on 78 reviews, with an average rating of 6.7/10. The website's consensus reads, "This shocking pre-teen drama manages, through realistic performances and a sense of empathy, to avoid exploitation and instead deliver something honest and haunting."

Writing for About.com, critic Marcy Dermansky said, "Writers are often encouraged to provide moments of \[epiphany\] and revelation for their characters; *12 and Holding* provides three transformations, and each is not only convincing, but also moving".

In a review for *Slant Magazine*, Keith Uhlich criticized "Anthony S. Cipriano’s contrivance-heavy screenplay and Michael Cuesta’s *Six Feet Under*-tutelaged direction", saying the film "comes off as something of a neo-con paranoid fantasy, its wayward trio of suburban youth standing in for the ills of America".

# .300 Remington Ultra Magnum

The **.300 Remington Ultra Magnum**, also known as the **.300 Ultra Mag**, **7.62×72mm** or **.300 RUM**, is a 7.62 mm (.308 inch) rifle cartridge introduced by Remington Arms in 1999. The .300 Remington Ultra Magnum is one of the largest commercially available .30 caliber magnums currently being produced. It is a beltless, rebated rim cartridge, capable of handling all large North American game, as well as long-range shooting. Among commercially produced .30-caliber rifle chamberings, the .300 Remington Ultra Magnum is second only to the .30-378 Weatherby Magnum in cartridge-case capacity.

## Origin & History

In the early 1980s Aubrey White and Noburo Uno of North American Shooting Systems (NASS) based in British Columbia Canada began experimenting with the full length .404 Jeffery by reducing the taper and necking it down to various calibers such as 7 mm, .308, 311, 338, 9.3 mm and .375. These cartridges were known variously as the Canadian Magnum or the Imperial Magnums. Rifles were built on Remington Model 700 Long Actions and used McMillan stocks. Cartridges were fire formed from .404 Jeffery cases  with the rim turned down, taper reduced and featured sharp shoulders.

Both Remington and Dakota Arms purchased the brass designed by Noburo Uno for use in their own experimentation and cartridge development. In 1999 Remington released the first of a series of cartridges virtually identical to the Canadian Magnum cartridges which featured a slightly wider body, increased taper, and shallower shoulders and named it the .300 Remington Ultra Magnum. Dakota too released their own version of the cartridge but chose not to turn down the rim and shortened the case to work in a standard length action. Remington would go on to design their own shortened versions of the Ultra Magnum cartridge which they were to call the Remington Short Action Ultra Magnum or RSAUM for short.

## Design & Specification

The .300 Remington Ultra Magnum is a member of the Remington Ultra Magnum cartridge family based on the .404 Jeffery via the Canadian Magnum cartridges. As these cartridges feature wider bodies than the belted magnums based on the .375 H&H case, these cartridges have greater case capacities than their corresponding full length belted Magnum cartridges such as the 7 mm Shooting Times Westerner, the .300 Weatherby Magnum, .340 Weatherby Magnum and the .375 Ackley Improved.

The .300 RUM features a rebated rim much like the .300 Canadian Magnum so as to allow the cartridge to function in the Remington M700 action without having to increase the bolt and bolt face diameter of the action. Unlike the belted Magnum cases based on the .375 H&H Magnum cartridge, the .300 RUM does not have a belt. All things being equal, a beltless cartridge would feed more reliably and more smoothly than a belted cartridge. Furthermore, as this is a beltless cartridge headspacing is designed to take place on the shoulder, which is considered beneficial by some as it is thought to promote accuracy and prolong case life of the cartridge. As modern belted magnums such as 7mm Remington Magnum and .300 Winchester Magnum actually headspace on the shoulder despite retaining the belt found on their parent cartridge, belted or unbelted is basically irrelevant in discussions of modern cartridges, and particularly so in discussions of unbelted cartridges.

**SAAMI compliant .300 Remington Ultra Magnum cartridge schematic:** All dimensions in inches \[millimeters\].

SAAMI recommends that the barrel have a 6 groove contour with a twist rate of one revolution in 10 in (250 mm). The barrel is to have a groove width of .115 in (2.9 mm). Bore is given as .300 in (7.6 mm) and a groove is .308 in (7.8 mm). Maximum case overflow capacity is 122.5 gr. of water (7.30 cm3). SAAMI recommended Maximum Average Pressure is set at 65,000 psi (4,500 bar).

Remington's ultra magnum cases were made wider than the .404 Jeffery case by .006 in (0.15 mm). The brass was made thicker so as to withstand the higher pressure of the new cartridge as the Jeffery cartridge had a maximum average pressure rating of 3,650 bar (52,900 psi).

## Performance

Remington ammunition for the .300 RUM is available in three Power Levels. Power Level I duplicates the .30-06 Springfield, Power Level II that of the .300 Winchester Magnum and Power Level III is the full power load. Remington offers the full power (Power Level III) .300 Remington Ultra Magnum ammunition in 150 gr (9.7 g) at 3,450 ft/s (1,050 m/s), the 180 gr (12 g) at 3,250 ft/s (990 m/s) and the 200 gr (13 g) at 3,032 ft/s (924 m/s). These are among the highest velocities attained by a .30 caliber production rifle cartridge.

The .300 RUM is an excellent long range cartridge with the ability to deliver a useful level of energy downrange especially with the power level III ammunition. Due to its high velocity it exhibits less bullet drop than most other .30 caliber (7.62 mm) cartridges.

Compared to other production .30 caliber (7.62 mm) cartridges, only the .30-378 Weatherby Magnum surpasses the .300 Remington Ultra Magnum. Factory loaded .30-378 Weatherby Magnum ammunition has a 150–200 ft/s (46–61 m/s) velocity advantage over the .300 RUM cartridge with any given bullet weight. However, the .30-378 Weatherby Magnum is considered the most overbore production sporting cartridge available and is not considered as efficient as the .300 RUM cartridge. In part due to its excessive freebore lengths the claimed velocities by Weatherby is a resultant factor of this freebore length. If chambered to allow bullets to seat to the lands of the rifling the large Weatherby cartridges would exhibit overpressure signs immediately. All things equal the .300 RUM and .30-378 Weatherby if chambered with the same throat and freebore would be comparable. Known freebore lengths of older Weatherby rifles have been in excess of 1 inch. The .30-378 is one of the most extreme cases of overbore and has among the highest throat erosion levels of any rifles.

## Sporting Usage

The .300 Remington Ultra Magnum cartridge was conceived as a long range hunting cartridge and in this it exceeds most other cartridges. It is able to launch heavy bullets with high sectional densities at high velocities thereby retaining energy to take game cleanly at longer ranges than less powerful cartridges such as the.30-06 Springfield and even the .300 Winchester Magnum.

# (Turn On) The Music Machine

***(Turn On) The Music Machine*** is the debut studio album by the American garage rock band The Music Machine, released on Original Sound Records on December 31, 1966. It arrived just months after the group's hit single, "Talk Talk", propelled to number 15 on the national charts. Although the album was hastily recorded to capitalize on the Music Machine's popularity, *(Turn On) The Music Machine* became a moderate hit on the *Billboard* Top LPs chart, and is hailed today as a classic garage rock album. Another single, "The People in Me" was also released in support of the album.

## Background

Fronted by their innovative songwriter and lead vocalist Sean Bonniwell, The Music Machine became a radio favorite as a result of their rebellious proto-punk song "Talk Talk", which reached number 15 on the *Billboard* Hot 100 in mid-1966. "Talk Talk", along with the B-side "Come on In", was rigorously rehearsed by the group under the instruction of Bonniwell, who held a virtue to perfecting a uniquely hard-edged sound for the band. By the time The Music Machine entered RCA Studios to record the two songs, they were well-practiced and completed them in only a few takes. Hoping to capitalize on the band's sudden success, their record label Original Sound hastily summoned the members back into the studio to record for *(Turn On) The Music Machine*.

The album includes five cover versions – "Cherry, Cherry", "Taxman", "See See Rider", "96 Tears", and "Hey Joe"—that were recorded for a local dance club in Los Angeles called 9th Street West, but were never intended to be featured on *(Turn On) The Music Machine*. However, the group's record producers insisted that the songs would improve record sales, a decision that Bonniwell recalled made him feel "artistically crest-fallen and infuriated". Still, Bonniwell regarded the Music Machine's arrangement of "Hey Joe" as innovative, invoking a slow, moody nuance that is strikingly similar to Jimi Hendrix's more well-known version. All of the remaining tracks were penned by Bonniwell, including the melodically complex "Trouble", the reflective ballad "Some Other Drum", which hinted at the musical direction the group would later take, and "Wrong", a song written in a similar style to "Talk Talk". Perhaps the most accomplished piece other than "Talk Talk" is "Masculine Intuition". Bonniwell explained the song is "very tricky for non-musicians. They really can't quite figure out what it is...I've had other musicians tell me, their bands have tried to play that song, and they can't. There's two sections—it's called a turnaround, and I invert two chords. And if you don't pick up on it, there's no way you can play the song".

*(Turn On) The Music Machine* was released on December 31, 1966 and reached number 76 on the *Billboard* Top LPs chart. The Music Machine's second single from the album, "The People in Me", was distributed in January 1967, and managed to chart at number 66. Over the years, the album has been considered a garage rock classic, with *Guitar* magazine ranking it at number three in its category of "100 Essential Garage Rock Albums". Music historian Richie Unterberger, writing for the Allmusic website, gathers that *(Turn On) The Music Machine* is highlighted by Bonniwell's original material, and "would have been a lot better if they'd let Sean Bonniwell write all of the songs". Critic Doug Sheppard praised Bonniwell's lyrical style, saying it "transcends the typical boy-girl theme of the day by instead favoring more introspective, psychological matter". In his article *The Psychedelic Experience*, Brian Hogg wrote the album "naturally features the group's hit single, as well as its flipside, the moody 'Come on In'. But alongside these tracks were five equally excellent Sean Bonniwell originals, as well as five covers" that the author goes on to conclude were "all rather offbeat and idiosyncratic choices". In 1983, Big Beat Records reissued the album, and in 2006 its material was released on the record label's compilation album *The Ultimate Turn On*.

# EDP Group

**EDP** (formerly **EDP - Energias de Portugal** and **Electricidade de Portugal**) is a Portuguese electric utilities company, headquartered in Lisbon. It was founded in 1976 through the merger of 14 nationalised electricity companies.

## History

EDP was founded as *Electricidade de Portugal, E.P.* by the Portuguese government though the Decreto-lei n.º 502/76 published on 30 Jun 1976, merging 14 former energy companies that had been nationalised by 1975 in the aftermath of the regime change in 1974, of which the most significant had been the *Companhia Portuguesa de Eletricidade* (CPE). In 1991, through Decreto-Lei n.º 07/91 of 8 January, the Government changed EDP's legal status from a Public Company to a Public Limited Company with exclusively public capital.

In May 1994, after a profound restructuration of EDP, E.P., carried out between 1991 and 1993, under the Tutelary of *Mira Amaral, Minister of Industry e Energy of the XII Portuguese Constitutional Government* and the Presidency of *Joaquim Serrão da Silva Correia,* the EDP Group have been constituted with a Holding and 19 companies, six of them responding to the main core business activities: CPPE - Companhia Portuguesa de Produção de Electricidade (electricity production); REN - Rede Eléctrica Nacional (electricity transportation); and four companies of regional electricity distribution: EN - Electricidade do Norte; CENEL - Electricidade do Centro; LTE - Electricidade de Lisboa e Vale do Tejo; and SLE - Electricidade do Sul.

In March 2007, the group made a US$3 billion takeover of Horizon Wind Energy, the Texan-based wind power producer. At the time, it was the largest renewable energy deal to date and made EDP the fourth-largest wind power producer in the world.

China Three Gorges Corporation, a SOE, won in December 2011 the bidding for the Portuguese government's 21.35% interest in the company. The transaction is expected to be concluded by April 2012. As of February 2014, just under 45% of the ownership of EDP was controlled by five institutional shareholders. Amongst the others were the Qatar Investment Authority and BlackRock.

In late 2018 EDP's largest shareholder, China Three Gorges Corporation, proposed a hostile takeover of EDP. This was ultimately rejected at the shareholders meeting on 24 April 2019.

In 2020, EDP agreed to buy Viesgo, more than doubling its presence in Spain’s electricity distribution market.

On 10 April 2024, the company decided at a general meeting of shareholders to change its name to simply "EDP, S.A.", dropping "Energias de Portugal" from the name. The objective was to "simplify the image" and "adjust the corporate name to an increasingly global company".

## Operations

In 2006 35% of the energy produced by EDP was from renewable energy sources, and, as of the end of 2007, the company announced that 39% of its energy was already emissions-free and that it was aiming for a 75% renewable energy production by 2013.

In November 2019, EDP announced that it had reached a 50/50 Joint Venture agreement with the French gas and power company Engie to merge their fixed and floating offshore wind power activities, primarily targeting markets in Europe, the United States and selected geographies in Asia.

## Foundation

The EDP Foundation is a non-profit organization set up and financed by the company as a means to foster the development of cultural, scientific, and educational activities. It is headquartered at *Central Tejo*, a former CRGE-owned 50 MW coal-powered plant at the Lisbon riverfront, decommissioned in the 1960s. Since 1990 it houses the Electricity Museum, recently incorporated in the broader MAAT – Museum of Art, Architecture, and Technology, which is the main focal point of the foundation's activities.

title: (7888) 1993 UC

abstract: (7888) 1993 UC is a near-Earth minor planet in the Apollo group. It was discovered by Robert H. McNaught at the Siding Spring Observatory in Coonabarabran, New South Wales, Australia, on 20 October 1993. The asteroid has an observation arc of 34 years and has a well determined orbit. Its estimated size is 2.3 to 5.2 km. On 20 March 2013, the asteroid passed 49 lunar distances or 0.12598 AU from Earth at a relative velocity of 21.8 km/s (49,000 mph). The approach posed no threat to Earth. (7888) 1993 UC is not classified as a potentially hazardous asteroid (PHA) because its Earth MOID is only 0.084 AU, and only objects with an Earth MOID less than 0.05 AU are considered PHAs. It was discovered to be a binary asteroid by Arecibo Observatory in March 2013.
