title: General of Ili

text:
The General of Ili ( Officially ), also known in western sources as the Kuldya Military Governor, was a position created during the reign of the Qing Qianlong Emperor (r. 1735-1799) to "pacify" Dzungaria (now part of Xinjiang) and suppress uprisings by the Khoja "Rebels". The General of Ili governed the entire Xinjiang during Qing rule until it was turned into a province.

History
Based in Huiyuan City (; now Huiyuan Town, Huocheng County), in the Qing delineated greater Xinjiang region in the northwest of China, the general was the senior military commander in the area. In 1759, Qing general  (Manchu: Zhaohuui) suppressed the Revolt of the Altishahr Khojas and reestablished Qing control over the western part of Xinjiang. As a result, in 1762 the Qing court established the position of General of Ili with Ming Rui as the first incumbent.

At the same time, the offices of Military Attache or Dūtǒng () and Imperial Resident () were created under the general to manage military affairs north and south of the Tian Shan range of mountains. The northern circuit () or Tarim Basin was administered by the Ili Ministerial Attache (), five Ministerial Leaders (), a Tarbagatai Ministerial Attache () and a Minister of Affairs (). In the south () or Altishahr there was a General Minister for Altashahr Affairs () responsible for Kashgar, Ye 'erqiang (; now Yarkant County), Yingjisha'er (; now Yengisar County), Uqturpan County, Aksu, Kuqa County, Hetian (; now Hotan) and Kalash'er ( now Karasahr) amongst others. In the western circuit ( the Urumqi Military Command () was responsible for Gucheng (; now Qitai County), Barköl Kazakh Autonomous County,  (now Hami City) and  (now Wusu) among other locations.

In 1763, the Qianlong Emperor ordered the construction of the new city of Huiyuan on the north bank of the Ili River as a base for the General of Ili. Thereafter, Huiyuan became the capital of the Qing Xinjiang Region. A further eight fortified cities were then constructed across the Ili or Dzungarian Basin: Ningyuan City (; now Yining City), Huining City (; now Bayandai Township [)  west of Yining), Taleqi City (; now part of Huocheng County), Zhande City (; now part of Qingshuihe County), Guangren City (; now Lucaogou Town ( in Huocheng County), Gongchen City (; now Khorgas City), Xichun City (; now part of Yining City) and Suiding City (; now Shuiding Town).

The headquarters of the Manchu bannermen was in Huiyuan and Huining while the Green Standard Army was distributed across the remaining towns with their commander in Suiding. Uyghur merchants (including the Taranchi) resided in Ningyuan. Their affairs were managed by the General of Ili through the East Yamen ().

In 1864, during the reign of the Tongzhi Emperor, the  broke out concurrent with the Dungan Revolt of 1862-77 further east. On 8 March 1866, a large force of Hui Muslims captured the General of Ili Mingsioi's Yamen. He committed suicide by blowing himself up but his predecessor Cangcing () was captured and paraded through the streets.

After Tzarist Russia invaded the Ili Basin in 1865 they demolished Huiyuan then in 1876 Qing General Zuo Zongtang, at the head of a large army, ended Yaqub Beg's occupation of the southern part of Xinjiang. In 1881 the Qing army recaptured the Ili Basin and two years later rebuilt Huiyaun  north of its former site. This new settlement was known historically as "New Huiyuan" (.

Xinjiang officially became a province in 1883 with its capital at Dihua Fu ( modern day Urumqi) and Huiyuan gradually lost its political status as the centre of the region. The General of Yili retained responsibility for defence in the north of the new province until the position was abolished following the 1911 Xinhai Revolution, which marked the end of Imperial China.

title: Upagraha

text:
In Jyotiṣa or Indian astrology, the term Upagrāha (Sanskrit: उपग्रह) refers to the so-called "shadow planets" (Sanskrit: छायाग्राह, chāyāgrāha) that are actually mathematical points, that are used for astrological evaluation. Upagrāha is a generic term used for two distinct and different calculations. One type of Upagrāha called Aprakāśa (अप्रकाश) is calculated from the degree of the Sun. Another type is more generally called Upagrāha or Kālavelā (कालवेला) is calculated by dividing duration of diurnal sky (from sunrise to sunset) or the duration of the nocturnal sky (from sunset to sunrise) into eight parts. The classic writers like Parāśara, Varāhamihira and later writers like Vankatesa Śarma, author of Sarvartha Chintamani, all classify the Upagrāhas in various ways.

Overview

The Vedic astrology is primarily based on the calculation of mathematical points. For instance, the Yoga, also referred to as the fifth part of Panchangam, is the sum of the combined longitudes of the Sun and Moon. Specifically, Upagraha is based on the longitude of the Sun so that astrological insights involving it needs the calculation of the sun's path in relation to other planets. For example, Rāhu and Ketu are determined according to the intersection of the sun and moon's paths in the sky. This serves a number of purposes and one of the most important of these is the determination of the power wielded by the upagraha to provide benefit or harm. For example, an upagrāha's interaction with Dhūma will result in excessive heat, risks of fire, and mental anguish.

Mantreśvara in the 25th chapter of his Phaladīpika deals with the nine traditional upagrāhas; the nine upagrāhas are – Māndi (मान्दि), Yamakaṇṭaka (यमकण्टक), Ardhaprahāra (अर्द्धप्रहार), Kāla (काल), Dhūma (धूम), Vyatipāta (व्यतीपात), Paridhi (परिधि), Indradhanu (इन्द्रधनु) and Upaketu (उपकेतु). Gopsh Kumar Ojha clarifies that Māndi is Gulika (गुलिक). With the exception of Yamakantaka the rest eight upagrahas are malefics and produce bad results. Yamakantaka is powerful in conferring benefits same as Jupiter but the other eight have evil influences in the bhavas  (houses) they are found to occupy.

Aprakāśa Upagrāha calculation

The resulting calculations will always leave Dhūma in opposition (180°) to Indracāpa and Vyatīpāta in opposition to Pariveṣa. All the Aprakāśa Upagrāhas are always in a fixed distance from the Sun.

Kālavelā Upagrāha calculation

Daytime 8 part division

Nighttime 8 part division

Mapping the Kālavelā Upagrāha by Graha
The table below shows how the five Kālavelās correlate to five of the Grahas ("Su" for Sun, "Ma" for Mars, "Me" for Mercury, "Ju" for Jupiter, "Sa" for Saturn). Use this abbreviation of the Grahas to find the index of the 1/8th part of each Kālavelā in the daytime and nighttime tables above. If the intention is to calculate Kāla, use "Su" (Sun) in the tables above, if Gulika, use "Sa" (Saturn) to identify the index of the part sought.

The calculation steps below involve calculating units of time. In the Indian classics Ancient Indian units of time (kāla vyavahāra) were used, but modern units (24-hour day) can be used as well.

Identify the Diurnal and Nocturnal duration
If the birth occurred before sunrise, find the time of sunset on the previous day.
Find the duration of the time between that previous day's sunset and this day's sunrise. This duration is called ratrimāna.
If the birth occurred after sunrise, during daytime (before sunset), find the time of sunrise the same day.
Find the duration of the time between that sunrise and sunset. This duration is called dinamāna.
If the birth occurred after sunset, find the time of sunrise the next day.
Find the duration of the time between sunset of this day and sunrise the next day. This duration is called ratrimāna.

Division of Diurnal and Nocturnal duration
If the birth occurred before sunrise, use the nighttime table for the previous day.
If the birth occurred between sunrise and sunset, use the daytime table for the same day
If the birth occurred after sunset, use the nighttime table for the same day
Divide the duration (dinamāna or ratrimāna) by 8.
Multiply the 1/8th sum with the number of the part where the corresponding Graha is.

The Position of the Kālavelā
If the birth occurred before sunrise, add the results from above to the time of sunset the day before.
If the birth occurred between sunrise and sunset on the same day, add the results from above to the time of same day sunrise.
If the birth occurred after sunset on the same day, add the results from above to the time of same day sunset.
The Ascendant (rising degree) of the resulting time will be the degree of the Kālavelā.

Rising time of Upagrahas

Māndi’s rising is got by firstly finding out the duration of day and night; if the duration is equal i.e. of thirty ghatis each (one ghati=24 minutes), Māndi would rise at the end of ghatis 26 on Sunday, at the end of ghatis 22 on Monday, at the end of ghatis 18 on Tuesday, at the end of ghatis 14 on Wednesday, at the end of ghatis 10 on Thursday, at the end of 6 ghatis on Friday, and at the end of 2 ghatis on Saturday. In the case of "night-births" the 5th of that particular weekday will have to be considered, and if the day and night durations vary then the rising of Māndi will have to be altered proportionately. The rising times of Kala during day-time on weekdays are in order at the end of ghatis 2, 26, 22, 18, 14, 10 and 6; those of Yamakantaka are at the end of ghatis 18, 14, 10, 6, 2, 26 and 22, and those of Ardhaprahar are at the end of ghatis 14, 10, 6, 2, 26, 22, 18. Dhooma is got by adding 4 signs 13 degrees and 20 minutes to the Sun's latitude; Vyatipata is got by subtracting the figures for Dhooma from 12 signs; Paridhi is obtained by adding six signs to the figures for Vyatipata; Indradhanu or Kodanda is got by subtracting Paridhi from 12 signs; and Upaketu is got by adding 16 degrees 40 minutes to Indradhanu.
The simpler method for determining Māndi’s rising sign is - For day born, the duration of the day (Dinamāna) divided by 8 gives eight parts each part governed by a planet; the first part is ruled by the day-lord. For night born, the first part is ruled by the 5th planet in the given order; the sign rising in the east in the part ruled by Saturn is Māndi’s rising sign.

General effects

Mantresvara tells us:-

 गुलिकस्य तु संयोगे दोषान्सर्वत्र निर्दिशेत् |
 यमकण्टकसंयोगे सर्वत्र कथयेच्छुभम् ||

 " Wherever Gulika is in conjunction (with a planet), in all those (instances), evil has to be predicted; whenever Yamakantaka is associated, good has to be expected."

He further clarifies that Gulika, which is Saturn in effect, is more powerful in giving bad results, the rest produce half of the evil it produces.

If Gulika (Mandi) is found situated in the Janma Lagna then the person will be a thief, hot-tempered, cruel, disrespectful, unintelligent, uneducated, heavy eater, not stoutly built, not long-lived, have defective eyesight and no sons. Situated in the 2nd house, Gulika makes one harsh in speech, misbehaved, quarrelsome, unreliable, unreasonable and illogical in thought and deeds, and suffer from want of wealth. If Gulika is in the 3rd house the person will be arrogant, hot-tempered, greedy, a loner, fearless, impervious, a show-off who derives no happiness through brothers. The 4th house Gulika makes one devoid of relatives and friends, devoid of wealth and conveyance. If Gulika is in the 5th house the person will be evil-minded and evil-tempered, unsteady and short-lived; if it is in the 6th house then one will be fond of the occult and the mysterious, brave, victorious and blessed with a very able son. If Gulika is in the 7th house the person will be quarrelsome, unfriendly towards all, envious, possess little knowledge and understanding and much married. Gulika situated in the 8th house makes one short-statured with a defective face, appearance, eyesight and speech. The 9th house Gulika does not give an able father, guide or teacher or son; if it is in the 10th house then the person engages in evil and unworthy deeds and is not generous. The 11th house Gulika gives happiness, a commanding overbearing personality and good sons. Gulika occupying the 12th house makes one spend recklessly, lose wealth and suffer poverty.
The rising sign in the Janam lagna will be a trikonasthana counted from the sign occupied by Gulika or the navamsa occupied by Gulika. Gulika in conjunction with the Sun indicates that the father will be short-lived, in conjunction with the Moon proves harmful for mother, in conjunction with Mars makes brothers unfortunate and unhelpful and separation from brothers, in conjunction with Mercury it makes one a fool or mentally ill, in conjunction with Jupiter, unscrupulous, in conjunction with Venus it makes one seek women of ill-repute, in conjunction with Saturn it makes one suffer many calamities, ailments, leprosy and be short-loved, and in conjunction with Rahu or Ketu gives infections and diseases and imbalance. If a person is born with Gulika situated in Tyajyakaala i.e. in Vishaghati or Vyatipata, Vaidhrti, Kulika, Ardhyaama, Paatayoga, Vishkumbha yogas or Bhadrakarana, Kshya-tithi or  Vrddhi-tithi, the person even though born in a royal family will remain a daridra and a beggar.

The planet in conjunction with Yamakantaka and the bhava occupied by it flourish, they give good results. Ardhaprahār situated in benefic vargas in the bhava that has gained more benefic bindus in the Ashtakavarga gives very good results. The rest produce evil results. The good or bad indicated by these Upagrahas is experienced during the course of the dashas of the lords of the bhavas they happen to be in and according to the status of their dispositors. If the dispositor of Gulika is in a kendra or a trikona vested with requisite strength in own or exaltation or friendly sign then one possesses a pleasing personality, is popular and famous and enjoys the benefits of Raja yoga, he becomes a powerful ruler. The kendras and the trikonas not occupied by taragrahas are indicative of a turbulent life; the chayagrahas tenanting the kendras in particular cause immense pain.

Rectification of rising sign in lagna

Kalidasa in his Uttara Kalamrita recommends the use of Mandi for the purpose of Lagna-shuddhi. He states – find out the rasis and the navamsas occupied by Mandi and the Moon, the rising lagna at the time of birth will be in the sign occupied by Mandi or the Moon or in the 7th sign or in the 5th or in the 9th from these two or from the navamsa occupied, whichever is stronger.

title: The Billions of Arsène Lupin

text:
The Billions of Arsène Lupin is a detective novel by Maurice Leblanc about gentleman thief Arsène Lupin.  The novel appeared in 29 daily serials, illustrated by Jean Oberle in Auto from 10 January to 11 February 1939, then published in volume 16 in Hachette (Collection "The Enigma" No. 13) in November 1941, with illustrations by André Pécoud.

The Hachette edition of 1941, a story that has not been written, in fact, beyond 1939, is the only edition in 1987 before insertion of this ultimate story of Arsène Lupin in the collection of Francis Lacassin (Volume 4, published in 1987). Thus, there are two posthumous editions. It is likely that illness and death had prevented the author of completing this novel; the family has refused for 46 years to a second issue, to respect the memory of the novelist. "If not adhere to this rule is to avoid compromising the completeness of our edition" 2.

The Hachette edition 1941 is incomplete: one of the 29 operas "L'Auto", n ° 23 of February 3, 1939, was omitted by mistake. Error repeated in the reissue Robert Laffont 1987: Volume 4 of "Mouthpieces" collection is similarly amputated.

Summary

Patricia, a young American assistant James Allermy Mac is very popular with her boss. The latter, based in the United States, is founder of "Hello-Police", a tabloid that chronicles crime, and plans for his invaluable secretary a great professional future. He is aware that the pretty woman was seduced and abandoned, to his great regret, by his own son, who finally made a marriage more in line with his fortune. As a result of this connection, Patricia found herself a single mother, but the presence of Rudolph, a young child, gives her the courage to face life. Another event, however, is about to give another twist to her life.

One evening, on the premises of the company itself, she is attacked by an individual called "The Rough." She is saved in extremis by a man of strength and reassuring impassivity she does not know , but whom the bandit, astonished at his prowess, asks to her surprise: "Would you happen to be Arsene Lupin by chance? "

Why was the famous gentleman thief in America? Why, after a mysterious nocturnal meeting of eleven men, were Mac Allermy and his attorney murdered with knife in the heart? What's in the brown leather briefcase stolen from Mac Allermy the night of his death, and now owned by "The Rough", who speaks of an immense fortune?

Fortune! The magic word to make appear--and disappear--Lupin. Patricia instinctively departs for France (the boat trip will be hectic) because it was the intended destination of her late boss, whom she now wishes to avenge. It is also the stomping ground of an agent well armed to handle such a complicated and dangerous line of business, and who gave her at their first meeting, a silver whistle: "In case of danger, whistle without stopping. I will come ... "

title: Legacy Mount Hood Medical Center

text:
Legacy Mount Hood Medical Center is a hospital in Gresham in the U.S. state of Oregon. Established in 1959, the 115-bed facility in the Portland metropolitan area is owned by the nonprofit Legacy Health. Originally a for-profit hospital, it moved to its current campus in 1984.

History
Gresham General Hospital opened in July 1959 in downtown Gresham at a former nursing home that opened in 1934. Gresham General was a private, for-profit facility owned by Ben F. Doerksen and his wife built as a 52-bed facility for a cost of $500,000. Metropolitan Hospitals, parent company for Emanuel Hospital, purchased the hospital in 1971 and renamed it as Gresham Community Hospital, and by 1973 it had grown to a 113-bed facility. Earlier in 1971 Emanuel and several other hospitals joined to form Metropolitan Hospitals, which in 1989 became Legacy Health through another merger. In November 1984, Gresham's hospital moved to its current location on Southeast Stark Street in 1984, when it was renamed as Mount Hood Medical Center. The new $15.6 million facility was five stories and had 107 beds.

Construction on a second medical office building on the campus started in 1998. In 2001, the hospital added a permanent MRI machine, replacing a mobile unit that had previously been used. The next year the imaging department completed an expansion that doubled the size and also added a CAT scan machine. In 2003, Mount Hood Medical Center started construction on a $3 million expansion of the maternity department. In 2023, under the guidance of newly hired president Bahaa Wanly, the twice expanded maternity department was suddenly shuttered and Bahaa Wanly was then promoted to president of Legacy Emanuel. The hospital opened an expanded 29-bed,  emergency department in 2009.

Operations
Legacy Mount Hood Medical Center has 115 licensed beds, but only operates 91 of them.

The hospital serves the eastern portions of Multnomah County in the Portland area.

Part of Legacy Health, the state of Oregon classifies the hospital as a DRG hospital.

Services at the facility include emergency services, maternity(Shut down in 2023 due to providers not wanting to follow a new model and walked out), surgery, radiology, breast health, cardiac rehabilitation, and orthopedic services.

For 2013, the hospital had a total of 5,848 discharges, with 20,493 patient days, and 41,501 emergency department visits, plus 93,254 outpatient days. Also that year were 1,027 births and 1,526 inpatient surgeries. In 2013 Mount Hood Medical Center had $319,752,501 in gross patient revenues, provided $25,853,578 in charity care, had $110,376,379 total in operating expenses, and an income of $2,030,716.

title: John Linley Frazier

text:
John Linley Frazier (January 26, 1946 – August 13, 2009), also known as The Killer Prophet, was an American mass murderer who killed five people in Santa Cruz County, California, the first of three men who would go on killing sprees in Santa Cruz County in the 1970s, the others being Herbert Mullin and Edmund Kemper.

Biography
John Linley Frazier was born on January 26, 1946, to Patricia Irene ( Adams) and William B. Frazier.

After his mother remarried, to Santa Cruz resident Pierre Pascal, Frazier attended elementary and middle school in Capitola, followed by Santa Cruz High School, where he dropped out in 1961 as a freshman. Frazier's "first brush" with the juvenile justice system was at age 15, and he was held in police custody again some years later. Following a car accident in the late 1960s, he had become a religious fanatic who obsessively studied the Bible. He believed the voice of God was telling him to commit homicides in order to prevent the environment from being destroyed by rich men like Victor Ohta. God, Frazier told friends, had chosen him to save the environment.

Murders

Background
The murders took place a little over a year after the Tate–LaBianca murders by Manson Family members in Los Angeles as well as the Zodiac Killer murders in San Francisco.

Frazier had convinced himself that he was the John referred to in the New Testament’s Book of Revelation, and efforts by his wife and mother to get Frazier to seek therapy were unsuccessful.  A week before the murders, he told his wife that "some materialists might have to die" for him to fulfill his destiny.

Day of the murders
On October 19, 1970, Frazier entered the home of wealthy ophthalmologist Victor Ohta in the oceanfront resort area of Soquel, a few miles south of Santa Cruz. Perched atop a hilltop overlooking Monterey Bay, the mansion had been designed by a disciple of Frank Lloyd Wright. Frazier proceeded to murder Ohta, his wife, their two sons, and Ohta's medical secretary. He shot the five of them with a .38 caliber revolver and pushed their bodies in the home's swimming pool.

After the killings, Frazier typed a note on a typewriter owned by Ohta, which he left on the window of Ohta's Rolls-Royce. The note read:
Halloween, 1970. Today World War III will begin, as brought to you by the People of the Free Universe. From this day forward, anyone and/or everyone or company of persons who misuses the natural environment or destroys same will suffer the penalty of death by the People of the Free Universe. I and my comrades from this day forth will fight until death or freedom against anyone who does not support natural life on this planet. Materialism must die, or Mankind will stop.
KNIGHT OF WANDS
KNIGHT OF CUPS
Night(sic) OF PENTACLES
KNIGHT OF SWORDS

He set fire to the home and blocked the roads to the property with the doctor’s car and the secretary’s car. Frazier fled in Virginia Ohta’s station wagon, which he later abandoned and burned in a railroad tunnel.

Arrest
Neighbors informed police that they had seen Frazier patrolling Soquel, California, armed with a gun. The firearm, a .38 caliber revolver, was believed to have been used in the slayings. There were also reports of Frazier being seen driving the Ohtas' missing station wagon.

Two sheriff's deputies, Bradley Arbsland and Rodney Sanford, went into the woods and found the cabin reported to be where Frazier lived. Upon entering the cabin they found it to be empty but noticed signs of recent activity. The two deputies staked out the vicinity of the cabin for 20 hours, hiding in some nearby brush. The next morning, October 23, at 7:30 A.M., the two deputies captured Frazier while he slept. He was captured four days after murdering the Ohta family.

Trial and aftermath
The jury found Frazier to be legally sane, and he was tried and convicted of five counts of murder.

On the trial's first day, Frazier appeared in court with a new look representing the two sides of a hippie. One side had long hair and a long beard and the other side was totally bald with no beard, hair or eyebrow. He later shaved his head completely on advice from his attorney. Frazier was sentenced to death on November 29, 1971. However, in 1972 the death penalty was abolished in California and his sentence was commuted to life imprisonment.

The Ohta family's two daughters, 18-year-old Taura and 15-year-old Lark, were away at boarding school during the murders. However, Taura died by suicide seven years afterwards.

Death
On August 13, 2009, aged 63, Frazier hanged himself in Mule Creek State Prison in Ione, California.

title: Minute To Win It: Singapore

text:
Minute to Win It: Singapore Edition is a Singaporean primetime game show that originally ran on MediaCorp Channel 5 with host Bryan Wong. The show is part of an international franchise, Minute to Win It. Contestants take part in a series of 60-second challenges that use objects that are commonly available around the house. Contestants who managed to complete all 10 challenges will win S$250,000. The first episode airs on Saturday (August 9, 2014), 8:20pm, right after the live telecast of the nation's 49th National Day Parade. Subsequent episodes were telecast on every Wednesday beginning from 13 August 2014 at 8:00pm.

The show sponsors are: Pokka, Wrigley's Eclipse Mints, Hershey's, Burger King and ASA Holidays.

Gameplay

Rules

The contestant is presented with the blueprint for the first game (level) and must successfully complete a game within 60 seconds to win the first level (was $1,000 in all versions) and advance to the next level. After successfully completing the fourth and seventh level games, the contestant is guaranteed to leave with no less than the cash award for those levels. If the contestant can complete the final game, the contestant will earn $250,000.

The difficulty of the games progressively increase throughout the show. If time expires or the conditions of the game cannot be fulfilled (such as by the contestant exhausting any allotted attempts or committing a foul), the contestant loses a "life". If the contestant loses all three of their "lives", the game ends and the contestant's winnings drop to the previous milestone they passed.

After successfully completing a game, the contestant can leave with the amount of money already won before seeing the blueprint for the next game. However, once the contestant elects for the game, the contestant cannot leave the show until that game is complete or they have exhausted all three of their "lives".

In episodes featuring teams of two contestants, some games are played by both players, while others are played solo. A player can only make three consecutive attempts at solo games (including re-attempts following losing a life; an intervening team game does not reset this count). After a player makes three attempts, the other player is forced to attempt the next solo game.

Prizes

Successfully completing a challenge is worth a specific cash prize at each level. Contestants who successfully complete challenge on levels with bolded amounts in the table below are guaranteed to leave with no less than the cash award at that level should they fail any later challenge.

Level 3, 5 and 7 are the safety levels for the celebrities who are playing for their charities.

title: Final Warning (Skylar Grey song)

text:
"Final Warning" is the second single released by the American recording artist Skylar Grey for her second studio album Don't Look Down. The song was written by Alexander Grant and Grey, and produced by Grant.

Background
While Skylar Grey was living in a cabin in Oregon, she said that she was coming into a new version of herself. Grey said she wrote "Final Warning" in that cabin the same week she had written the chorus to "Love the Way You Lie." The song is also about the same relationship as "Love the Way You Lie". "Final Warning" took two hours to write, according to Grey.

Critical reception
Sam Lansky from Idolator described the song as "a skittering midtempo ballad that’s not playful or ironic — it’s just dark" and compared its lyrics to Grey's biggest hit as a songwriter, "Love the Way You Lie".

The Grafton Historic District is a  historic district in Grafton, Illinois. The district includes two blocks of Main Street (Illinois Route 100) and a section of Maple Street connecting to Grafton's historic wharf on the Mississippi River. The section of Main Street is a mostly residential portion of the city's primary residential, commercial, and social corridor. The houses in the district were built from 1836 to 1925 and have a variety of designs. Formal styles represented in the district include Queen Anne and Italianate; vernacular plans such as hall and parlor and side hall are also present. The Grafton Ice House is the lone commercial building in the district; built circa 1840, it is the only surviving building from Grafton's ice industry, which sold and stored frozen water from the river. The limestone wharf was built in 1846 to serve river transport, trade, and entertainment in Grafton; it was the city's second wharf, replacing an earthen wharf that was lost to a flood.

The district was added to the National Register of Historic Places on February 16, 1994.

A new, re-recorded version of the song was later featured on their debut studio album, My Love Is Cool (2015). Regarding the new version, they said, "when we started to make the album, we were really upset, 'cause we thought the old recording never sounded very good. It didn't do the song justice, so we wanted to re-record it. So it's quite nice to go full circle and put the first song we released on the album."

Music video
The music video for "Fluffy" was uploaded to the band's YouTube channel on 14 February 2013. The video's director Fabio Youniss stated that the video is about "boredom, misspent youth and a neutered cat," as well as "how Wolf Alice came together."

title: Free Money Day

text:
Free Money Day is a global social experiment held annually on September 15, the anniversary of the Lehman Brothers' 2008 filing for bankruptcy. Participants hand out money to strangers, asking them to pass half onto someone else. Money is exchanged in person, left as a surprise for someone to find, or sent digitally. Founded in 2011 by Donnie Maclurcan, co-founder and co-director of the Post Growth Institute, Free Money Day is a social experiment that is meant to explore people's attachment to money and remind people that it must freely circulate in a successful economy, as noted by Maclurcan:

Since its inception, Free Money Day has been celebrated through 324 events organized in 218 locations in 35 countries, with many more unreported events.

Free Money Day is an initiative of the Post Growth Institute (PGI), an international, not-for-profit organization leading the shift to a world where people, companies and nature thrive together within ecological limits. The PGI works collaboratively to develop ideas, programs, events and alliances that promote the equitable circulation of money, power and resources in our local communities and global economy.

In addition to sharing money, people have sought alternative ways to participate in Free Money Day. This has included giving out money to strangers in exchange for them listening to their music, organizing a free sewing workshop, or a video store handing out free movie rentals to customers.
