title: Kafa'ah

text:
Kafa'ah or Kafaah (; ) is a term used in the field of Islamic jurisprudence with regard to marriage in Islam, which in Arabic, literally means, equality or equivalence. It is thus defined as the compatibility or equivalence between a prospective husband and his prospective wife which should be adhered to. This compatibility is dependent on multiple factors that include religion, social status, morality, piety, wealth, lineage or custom.

Legal Rulings
Islamic scholars (ulama) hold differing opinions and arguments on the doctrine of Kafa'ah based on the Quran and Hadith. What is consistently agreed upon by the four Sunni Madhabs is the compatibility of religion. Muslim women can thus marry only Muslim men, but Muslim men are also permitted to marry Jewish or Christian women. In Shia Islam, there is no concept of Kafa'ah on the basis of lineage.

The Hanafi Position
According to the traditional Hanafi school of thought, kafa'ah represents a special proportionality between a man and a woman in marriage.

The Maliki Position
The traditional Maliki position states that kafa'ah is the proportionality in religion for both husband and wife.

The Shāfi'i Position
According to the Shāfi'i school of thought, kafa'ah concerns the factors of lineage, religiousness, profession, and being free of defects that permit annulling the marriage contract (nikah).  It must not be misunderstood as a recommendation of whom to marry. Rather, it should be taken as a legal restriction to protect a woman's interest in her marriage. If a woman wishes to marry someone who is seemingly incompatible based these factors, there is nothing wrong in her doing so.  Accordingly, an Arab woman should not marry a non-Arab man; similarly, a virtuous woman should not marry a corrupt man, (though it is sufficient should the husband give up his wrongdoing). A daughter of someone with a higher profession should not marry a man of a lowly profession.  The wealth of either parties is not a factor to be considered, as it is merely temporary and "those with self-respect and intelligence do not take pride in it."

The Hanbali Position
Scholars of the Hanbali school of thought state that kafa'ah represents the similarities and proportionality based on five factors, namely, religion, lineage, independence, jobs and wealth.

Objectives
The main goal of Kafa'ah is to make a peaceful and lasting marriage. The argument is that a household built based on the common perceptions, equivalent views, and understandings would make a peaceful and happy marriage. However, if such a rationale is to be accepted, it raises the question as to why these restrictions only apply to a prospective wife and not the husband. An objective more congruous with the legal rulings would be to protect the interests of the prospective wife by ensuring that she is not in disgrace in her conjugal bond. This however, raises the question as to why it would be a disgrace for an Arab woman to marry a non-Arab man.

The Hadhrami Controversy

Social Stratification Between Sayyids and Non-Sayyids
The controversies associated with the doctrine of kafa'ah were exemplified in a chain of events which occurred in Hadhramaut, Yemen, in 1905. People of the Ba 'Alawi sada, especially of Hadhrami descent, adhered to a stricter and more rigid system of social stratification based on the kafa'ah of descent. In particular, a Sayyid woman is prohibited from marrying a non-Sayyid man. This extreme position is absent in the canon of orthodox Shāfi'i scholarship, the school to which the Hadramis otherwise adhered. Controversy erupted when a number of marriages between Sayyid women and non-Sayyid men were publicly discovered, which thus became a subject of public condemnation and clamour because of their perceived unsuitability.

The Dissent by Rashid Rida and Ahmad Sūkartī
In response to the heated controversy, an Islamic reformer by the name of Rashid Rida argued that such marriages were valid and permissible, in his journal al-Manār in Egypt. There was nothing in Islamic law, as he argued, that prohibited marriages between Sayyid women and non-Sayyid men. Rida's views were echoed by Ahmad Surkati, who wrote a pamphlet in 1915 titled Surah al-Jawāb (The Form of the Answer) in permitting such marriages based on the principle of equality. According to Surkati, kafa'ah should be restricted to the rationale of ensuring a good relationship between the partners; accordingly, if a woman decides to marry someone seemingly inferior, because "of other such qualities which please women", she is allowed to do so.

It must be stressed again that the traditional Hadhrami interpretation of kafa'ah (in restricting marriage between Sayyid women and non-Sayyid men) is not found in the canon of orthodox Islamic scholarship. The arguments promulgated by Rida and Sūkartī are thus merely a defense of traditional Islamic scholarship as much as they are a rejection of Hadhrami societal attitudes determined by self-interest.

Rebuttal by Sayyid Umar al-Attas
These arguments, however, were strongly rebutted by Sayyids, one of whom was Sayyid Umar al-Attas, a leading Hadhrami scholar residing in Singapore, who declared such marriages to be unlawful. In doing so, he identified four levels of compatibility based on descent (which always applies for women and not for men, i.e., a man can marry someone from a lower rank, but a woman cannot): Arabs must not marry non-Arabs, Qurashīs must not marry non-Qurashīs, Hāshimites must not marry non-Hāshimites, and descendants of Hasan and Husayn must not marry anyone other than other Hasanids and Husaynids. In his book published in 1905, The Marriage Between A Sharifah and A Non-Sharif and Esteemed Position of Ahl al-Bayt, he concluded that it is impermissible for a Sayyid woman to marry a non-Sayyid man, even if it is based on her own desires or with the consent of her wali. Additionally, Abdullāh Daḥlān attacked Surkati's stance that all humans were equal, arguing instead that God had created some humans like the Prophet's family as superior to others. The dispute quickly deteriorated into racist diatribes. Daḥlān reportedly remarked about Sukarti, "Will the Negro stand corrected of his saying or persist in his stubbornness?" Other Hadhrami Sayyids insulted Sukarti by calling him "the black death", "black slave", "the black", "the Sudanese" or "the Negro", all while claiming that he could not speak Arabic and that he was a non-Arab.

Consequences
The far-reaching consequences of this heated discussion went beyond the doctrine of kafa'ah and sparked a power struggle in Hadhramī communities in South East Asia. People began to openly question the rigid system of social stratification dominated by the Sayyids, their status and privileges. Some of the practices that became publicly contentious include the custom of taqbil (kissing the hands of Sayyids), and the exclusive use of the title, "Sayyid" itself.

title: Barbara Kuriger

text:
Barbara Joan Kuriger (born 1961) is a New Zealand politician who was elected to the New Zealand parliament at the 2014 general election as a representative of the New Zealand National Party.

Farming career
Kuriger is a farmer, shareholder and director of three family-owned farming businesses. She has also served on the boards of several companies and institutions including DairyNZ, Dairy Training Limited, Primary ITO, New Zealand Young Farmers, Taratahi Agricultural Training Centre, Te Kauta, Venture Taranaki Trust, and the Dairy Women's Network. In 2012, she won the title of Dairy Woman of the Year.

Kuriger is a former director of Oxbow Dairies Ltd which was charged with multiple counts of animal cruelty and neglect. Kuriger ceased being a director in 2014, while her husband Louis was still a director until late 2018 during which period the bulk of the charges were laid and offences committed, her son, Tony, pleaded guilty in January 2020 for causing "prolonged and severe pain" to the animals in his care.

Political career

Fifth National Government, 2014–2017
In April 2014, Kuriger was selected as National's representative in Taranaki-King Country to replace incumbent Member of Parliament Shane Ardern. During the 2014 New Zealand general election, she won Taranaki-King Country for National by a margin of 16,773 votes.

During the Fifth National Government, Kuriger served as Deputy Chairperson of the Health Committee and as a member of the Primary Production Committee. In Opposition, she served as the National Party's Senior Whip from 2018 to 2020.

In 2015, David Cunliffe called out Kuriger for "ignorance" over the funding rorts at Taratahi Agricultural Training Centre while she was on its board.

Sixth Labour Government, 2017–present
During the 2017 New Zealand general election, Kuriger retained Taranaki-King Country for National by a margin of 15,259 votes.

During the 2020 New Zealand general election, Kuriger retained Taranaki-King Country for National by a final margin of 3,134 votes.

In October 2022 Kuriger resigned from her agriculture, biosecurity, and food safety portfolios due to mismanaging conflicts of interest with the Ministry for Primary Industries (MPI) over the prosecution of her husband and son.

In December 2022, hundreds of pages of emails between Kuriger and MPI, obtained by Newsroom under the Official Information Act, revealed a pattern of personal attacks on MPI officials in relation to animal mistreatment charges filed against her son Tony. MPI commissioned Mike Heron KC to review its conduct in the case. That review cleared the ministry of any wrongdoing and found the investigation into Tony Kuriger was not motivated by political purposes, despite the Kurigers' repeated private and public claims to the contrary.

Following a reshuffle in National Party leader Christopher Luxon's shadow cabinet that occurred on 19 January 2023, Kuriger was allocated the conservation spokesperson portfolio but was moved outside of the shadow cabinet with no ranking.

Other activities
Kuriger currently sits on the board of the New Zealand Rural Games Trust.

title: Bureau of Health Information

text:
The Bureau of Health Information (BHI) is a board-governed organisation that publishes independent reports about the performance of the public healthcare system in New South Wales, Australia.

Its reports describe key aspects of healthcare activity and performance for a range of consumer, healthcare and policy audiences, to strengthen accountability and support improvements in patients’ healthcare experiences and outcomes.

BHI manages the NSW Patient Survey Program, gathering information from patients about their experiences of care in the healthcare system and subsequent health outcomes.

BHI is one of NSW Health's pillar organisations.

Background

BHI was established in September 2009 by the NSW Government under the Health Services Act 1997 following the “Final Report of the Special Commission of Inquiry into Acute Care Services in NSW Public Hospitals”  by Peter Garling, SC. The Garling Report recommended that: "a Bureau of Health Information be established to access, interpret and report on all data relating to safety and quality of patient care and facilitate its interpretation and re-issue to the unit level on a regular basis."

In 2011, BHI's unique role was recognised in the report of the NSW Health Director-General, Future Arrangements for Governance of NSW Health, stating that it would: "...clearly delineate the role of the Bureau as the system ‘expert’ in analysis and reporting of patient outcome information to the public and to clinicians."

In 2012, the management of the NSW Patient Survey Program was transferred to BHI from the NSW Ministry of Health. The program surveys patients about different aspects of their care and the results are used to identify and report on strengths and areas for improvement at NSW, local health district and individual hospital levels.

Strategic plan

BHI operates under a rolling three-year strategic plan.

The 2019–2022 plan emphasises BHI’s continued commitment to provide high-quality information that is meaningful both within and outside the health system, supporting improvement and strengthening accountability, stating: “Through purposeful engagement and collaboration, BHI will ensure that its work aligns with and responds to health system priorities, providing actionable insights in areas that matter to patients.”

Reports and products

BHI publishes a range of reports on the performance of the NSW public healthcare system and patient experience.

One of BHI's core reports is Healthcare Quarterly, which is a series of regular reports that track activity and performance across public hospital and ambulance services in NSW. Healthcare Quarterly allows year-on-year comparisons of hospital and ambulance performance.

BHI's annual Healthcare in Focus report looks at different aspects of healthcare performance in NSW. In 2021, the report provided insights into the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the NSW health system throughout 2020. It examined patterns of hospital and ambulance activity and performance by looking at measures including timeliness of care and patient experience, and also contained some international comparisons. In 2020, the report examined the experiences of care of more than 200,000 people who visited emergency departments or who were admitted to public hospitals over a five-year period.

BHI also publishes reports on the results of surveys conducted as part of the NSW Patient Survey Program.

For many of BHI's reports, detailed results for individual hospitals and areas are available on BHI's online data portal Healthcare Observer.

BHI maintains a table of planned reports and target release dates on its website.

title: Sarah Dowie

text:
Sarah Maree Dowie (born 1974) is a New Zealand former politician of the National Party. She was the Member of Parliament for Invercargill from 2014 to 2020.

Early life and career
Dowie's parents, Ann and Alan Dowie, were both police officers. At age 15 in 1990, she was a member of a semi-professional dance group that performed in the Soviet Union. Before her election to Parliament, she worked as a lawyer.

Dowie attended the University of Otago, studying law and ecology. After graduating, Dowie worked for the law firm Macalisters and later the Department of Conservation. Dowie joined the National Party and was affiliated with their "Blue Greens" environmentalist faction.

Member of Parliament

Political career
Dowie was selected by the National Party to replace retiring MP Eric Roy as the party's  for the . At the time, she was described in the media as "relatively unknown" but was able to retain to retain the seat for National with a large margin over Labour's Lesley Soper. Dowie was returned again in 2017 with a slightly reduced margin over new Labour candidate Liz Craig and sitting New Zealand First list MP Ria Bond.

During her first term, Dowie served on a range of select committees. She was deputy chairperson of the Government Administration committee, deputy chairperson of the Local Government and Environment committee  and chairperson of the Justice and Electoral committee.

In Dowie's second term, National was in Opposition. She was appointed to Simon Bridges' shadow cabinet as conservation spokesperson and one of only a few members who had not been a minister in the previous Government. In this role she campaigned against Conservation Minister Eugenie Sage's proposed tahr cull, supported recreational whitebaiting, and promoted a member's bill aimed at regulating the shark cage diving industry. She also opposed the Labour government's plans to merge the country's polytechnics into a single entity, Te Pūkenga – New Zealand Institute of Skills and Technology.

Jami-Lee Ross scandal and retirement
Botany MP Jami-Lee Ross split from National in October 2018. Shortly after this Newsroom reported that four women claimed to have been sexually harassed by Ross and Ross revealed in a radio interview that he had been having an affair with two women including a fellow MP. On 25 January 2019, that MP was revealed to be Dowie. Ross had disclosed her identity to news media in October 2018, but they chose not to name her until it was learned that a police investigation had been launched into a text message allegedly sent by Dowie to Ross. However, the police decided that no further action was needed.

In 2019 Dowie was re-selected unopposed as National's Invercargill candidate, but in February 2020 announced her decision not to stand for re-election. Her change of heart was attributed to the fallout from the Ross scandal. Southern Institute of Technology chief executive Penny Simmonds was announced as the replacement candidate.

Dowie delivered her valedictory speech on 29 July 2020. She criticised the news media for the way it portrayed her when the news broke of her relationship with Ross and accused journalists and political commentators of inaccurate reporting and “downright lies”. She described Ross as a “predator” who was able to “manipulate the media for his agenda” and said when the “media is directly party to it, it is the media fraternity that needs to audit themselves as to their ethics and their conscious peddling of sexism and patriarchy”. Dowie said if it takes for her to be “New Zealand’s ‘scarlet woman’ to highlight that situation, “then so be it”, and that New Zealand has a long way to go with how it views women.

Her speech was met with a standing ovation by MPs throughout the debating chamber. Dowie gave a number of high-profile interviews with news media following the announcement of her retirement from Parliament, including with New Zealand Herald senior writer David Fisher, Stuff’s Andrea Vance, and Newsroom’s Melanie Reid. In these interviews she described Ross as psychologically, sexually and emotionally abusive and called for an overhaul of the way in which women MPs are treated.

Dowie also wrote an op-ed for Newsroom providing advice to other women caught in abusive relationships including breaking off contact with the abuser and reaching out to and confiding in friends.

Post-Parliamentary career
In exit interviews, Dowie stated her intention to work as a consultant championing Southland and shepherding policy through central and local government.

In January 2021 she was announced as the chief executive of Able Charitable Trust, a mental health charity.

Personal life
Sarah Dowie is married to Mark Billcliff, a former first class cricketer for Otago, but it is understood they have separated. Dowie has two young children.

Voting for the honor is conducted by the head coaches of each member team once the tournament has completed and any player regardless of their team's finish is eligible.

The All-Tournament Team began being awarded after the first championship in 1985 and has been named every year since, excluding 2020 as the tournament was cancelled due to the coronavirus pandemic.

There have been 21 players named to the All-Tournament team despite their school not playing in the Championship game.

Two teams failed to have a player named to the All-Tournament team despite playing in the Championship game, Vermont in 2008 and UMass Lowell in 2015. Both were the runner-up schools.

title: Warhammer 40,000: Regicide

text:
Warhammer 40,000: Regicide is a turn-based strategy chess-like video game developed by Hammerfall Publishing for Microsoft Windows, iOS and Android, set in Games Workshop's Warhammer 40,000 universe. The game was released in an early-access form via Steam on May 5, 2015.  The game was fully released on September 8, 2015.

Gameplay
Players are able to log into a single game account and resume play, or use multiplayer services on different devices without the need for separate profiles. Gameplay involves two Battle Modes - Regicide and Classic. Two factions - the Space Marine Blood Angels Chapter and the Orks are available. A campaign mode featuring the Blood Angels chapter of Space Marines is included. A White Scars Space Marine army content was available for players who create their game account before the title was launched.

Battle modes
The game has two playable modes, Regicide and Classic - both available as single-player and multiplayer.

Regicide
The Regicide mode is described as "a new take on one of the most established strategy games of all time, evoking the grim setting of the iconic Warhammer 40,000 universe and hearkening to the roots of traditional gaming". Killing the 'King' will not always be the objective.

Taking on chess's concept of the 8×8 board and pieces such as the King or Rook, Regicide mode will involve two factions fighting against each other and two phases of combat where each player will plan and execute his attack through a plethora of abilities and equipment that will differ with each unit. On default, the player is granted 3 initiative points each phase which they can spend, in that turn, on the abilities and equipment available to the specific friendly piece they are moving, as well as Player abilities. The number of initiative points can be boosted with some abilities.

Classic
The Classic Battle Mode will be based on the traditional chess rules and will involve selecting a faction and battling it out online or offline against opponents the same way chess works.

Factions
Each player assumes a different faction and fights against each other in one of two battle modes available both for single-player and multiplayer. The two announced factions are the Blood Angels Chapter of the Space Marines and the Orks - each will have units, acting as specific chess pieces, that fit with the faction. While units have been generalized with specific piece names (for example Space Marine Terminator being a Rook), with the abilities and equipment it will receive in the Regicide battle mode, it will not necessarily have the same rules as a Rook.

Space Marines
The Space Marine faction is represented by the red-armoured Blood Angels Chapter. The Space Marine Captain assumes the role of the 'King' in chess. The longer he stays alive the more hardened his remaining force becomes, and can call in bombardments. The Librarian assumes the role of the 'Queen' in chess. Being a Psyker, he can drain the life-force from foes, and shatter the minds of weakened enemies. The Terminator assumes the role of the 'Rook' in chess. Assault Marine assumes the role of the 'Knight', and comes with a jet pack. The Devastator assumes the role of the 'Bishop', and being equipped with a heavy bolter. The Tactical Marines functions in the role of the 'Pawn'.

Orks
The Orks are the enemies in the single-player Blood Angels Campaign. The Ork Warboss assumes the role of the 'King'. The Weirdboy assumes the role of the 'Queen'. A living conduit of psychic energy, the Weirdboy is able to teleport across the field and blast the foe with bolts of emerald fury. Some might are able to transform an opponent into a 'squiggly beast'. The Meganobz assume the role of the 'Rook'. The Stormboyz assuming the role of the 'Knight'. The Ork Loota serves the role of the 'Bishop'. Equipped with Deffguns, they will have superior Weapon Strength and a couple of unique abilities. They are very tough, like all Orks, so scoring critical hits against them is unlikely. Their abilities include 'Ready fer Stompin!' which can be used to cause them to become more dangerous and frenzied when they sustain injury, 'Pin 'em Down' that suppresses enemies and holds them in place, and 'Take Aim' that gives them increased firepower but at the cost of their mobility. Shoota Boyz assume the role of the 'Pawn'.

Development and release

In May 2015, the developer released a video showing development.

In early February 2015, Hammerfall Publishing has started selling limited edition game bundles. There is a large range of bundles - from the budget 'Neophyte'/'Slugga' pack that offers in-development access to the game as well as a Space Marine/ Ork themed T-shirt depending on choice of faction, to the large 'Terminator'/'Warboss' bundle that on top of the game access and themed T-shirt, comes with a hooded jumper with artwork similar to the T-shirt two posters - one for the Space Marine Captain unit in the game, and the Weirdboy unit - special certificate, collector's edition forum access, content season pass, exclusive forum Honour and the buyer's name in the game credits.

Reception

Warhammer 40,000: Regicide received "mixed or average" reviews according to review aggregator Metacritic.

PC Gamer awarded the game a score of 70% and called it "...a cute chess set for 40K fans and an unusual twist on the classic game." Shacknews praised the Warhammer 40,000 chess pieces, challenging puzzles, creative blend of chess and tactics, and voice acting, but criticized the luck-dependent gameplay, lack of animation variety, and slow progression system.

title: L&N Station (New Orleans)

text:
The Louisville and Nashville Passenger Station was a former train station of the Louisville and Nashville Railroad in New Orleans, Louisiana. The station was located at the foot of Canal Street, and provided service to New Orleans from Birmingham, Montgomery, and Mobile. By the 1940s, six passenger trains arrived daily on the terminal's three tracks.

The station was demolished in early 1954 after all passenger service was relocated to the new Union Passenger Terminal.

Design

The one story brick building constructed in 1902 with a  concourse that paralleled the main building. An open side, steel train shed spanned the three tracks and was  long. The station contained the following rooms:

 general waiting room (30 ft wide and 45 ft long)
 colored waiting room (25 ft wide and 35 ft long)
 two small rest rooms
 one baggage room (30 ft wide and 60 ft long)

Mail and express packages were handled direct from the cars to trucks.

title: Miroslav Gochev

text:
Miroslav Angelov Gochev (; born April 9, 1973, in Burgas) is a retired amateur Bulgarian freestyle wrestler, who competed in the men's light heavyweight category. Gochev has claimed a bronze medal in the 76-kg division at the 1997 World Wrestling Championships in Wrocław, Poland, picked up a silver at the 2001 European Championships in Budapest, Hungary, and later represented his nation Bulgaria at the 2004 Summer Olympics. Throughout his sporting career, Gochev trained full time as a member of the wrestling squad for Slavia Litex Sports Club in Sofia under his personal coach Miho Dukov.

Gochev qualified for the Bulgarian squad, as a 31-year-old veteran, in the men's 84 kg class at the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens, by receiving an allocated berth from the International Federation of Associated Wrestling (FILA). Facing against two Olympic medalists from Sydney four years earlier, Gochev opened an astonishing 4–2 victory over Macedonia's Mogamed Ibragimov, but could not push South Korean wrestler Moon Eui-Jae off the mat, and suffered a defeat by a 5–9 score at the end of the round-robin. Finishing second in the prelim pool and twelfth overall, Gochev's performance was not enough to advance him to the quarterfinals.

title: Joseph Weinreb

text:
Joseph (Yosef) Weinreb (1869–1943), also known as the "Galitzianer Rav," was the first chief rabbi of Toronto, Canada.

Biography
Joseph Weinreb was born in Busk, Galicia, son of Rabbi Baruch Shlomo Weinreb and his wife Soore Ratze.

Rabbinic career
He worked as a rabbi in Iași, Romania after receiving his smicha (rabbinical ordination) from the Brejaner Rebbe. Around the year 1900, he received an invitation at the suggestion of his brother-in-law, Binyamin Kurtz, who was living in Toronto at that time, to serve as the rabbi of Toronto's Shomrai Shabbos congregation. The congregation had just purchased a building on Chestnut Street. Weinreb moved to Toronto with his two daughters, Malka and Lil,  after his wife, Ethel, died in childbirth. In Toronto, he married his niece, Freyda, with whom he had three more children, Soore Ratze, Sol and Ruth. The rabbi purchased a home on Henry Street across from the Poilishe Shul, and continued to head the congregation for more than 40 years. After an ideological split in the congregation, a new synagogue was built on Terauley Street, on land donated by Zelig Shapira.

Weinreb died on October 15, 1943, in Toronto. His successor was Rabbi Gedalia Felder.

title: Kuntry Livin'

text:
Kuntry Livin is the debut major label studio album from the American country rapper Big Smo. It was released on June 3, 2014 by both Elektra Nashville and Warner Bros. Records. The album was produced by Jon Conner and Orig. This album charted at No. 31 on the Billboard 200.

Background
Big Smo previously released two albums through Yayoda Records, and self-released three other studio albums.

Kuntry Livin marks Big Smo's the major-label debut, and was produced by Jon Conner and Orig.

Music and lyrics
According to Matt Bjorke of Roughstock, Big Smo is one of the foremost artists in a style known as rural rap or hick-hop, "which blends rural, Country themes and melodies with some rap elements (production and vocal delivery)". The music on Kuntry Livin''' has been described as spinning "rap rhymes about working-class values over hard-rock riffs."

Critical receptionKuntry Livin met with a moderate reception from music critics. At USA Today, Brian Mansfield rated the album two-and-a-half stars out of four, remarking how Big Smo's "cadences sound too similar, but the best connect like a hammer." David Jeffries of AllMusic rated the album three-and-a-half stars out of five, proclaiming that while "the corporate cornpone formula will pay off splendidly", the release "can't be written off so easily." At Newsday, Verne Gay graded the album a C+, cautioning in his bottom line that "This (almost) music-free opener makes you wonder what the fuss is about." Matt Bjorke of Roughstock rated the album three-and-a-half stars out of five, highlighting how "Those that open their ears may just find themselves tapping their toes or nodding their head along to the rhythmic Rural Rap".

Commercial performance
For the Billboard charting week of June 21, 2014, Kuntry Livin'' charted as the No. 31 most sold album according to the Billboard 200. It charted as the No. 9  in the Top Country Albums market with 9,000 copies sold, and it sold enough to chart at No. 3 on the Rap Albums chart.

title: Albery family

text:
The Albery family is a British family of theatre managers and playwrights who helped to build the London theatre into the tourist attraction that it is today. They ran the Albery Theatre which is now the Noël Coward.

James Albery

James Albery's (1838-1889) work included Dr. Davy, produced in 1866 at the Lyceum, and Two Roses, produced in 1870 at the Vaudeville. His wife was actress Mary Moore. They had three sons, Irving, Bronson and Wyndham.

Mary Moore

Mary Charlotte Moore (1861-1931), later Lady Wyndham, was an English actress and theatrical manager. She was known for her appearances in comedies alongside the actor-manager Charles Wyndham. She was married to James Albery from 1879 to 1889, and after his death her relationship with Wyndham eventually became romantic. After the death of Wyndham's estranged wife in 1916, they married. She was a very capable businesswoman and was joint proprietor of Wyndham's Theatre and the New Theatre (now the Noël Coward Theatre). After Wyndham's death she founded a limited company through which she controlled the two theatres until she died in 1931, aged 69.

Sir Irving Albery

The eldest son of James Albery and Mary Moore, Irving Albery was a Conservative Party politician who served as Member of Parliament for Gravesend from 1924 to 1945. He married Gertrude Mary, (née Jones (1884–1967), daughter of playwright Henry Arthur Jones) and their daughter Jessica Albery was one of the first professional women architects in the UK. A grandson was chemist John Albery.

Sir Bronson Albery

The second son of James Albery and Mary Moore, Bronson Albery (March 6, 1881 – July 21, 1971) assumed control of the family theatres with Charles Wyndham's son, Howard. Bronson produced The Knight of the Burning Pestle (1920), David Garrick (1922) and Saint Joan (1924).

title: Cleveland Shale

text:
The Cleveland Shale, also referred to as the Cleveland Member, is a shale geologic formation in the eastern United States.

Identification and name
The Cleveland Shale was identified in 1870 and named for the city of Cleveland, Ohio.
John Strong Newberry, director of the Ohio State Geological Survey, first identified the formation in 1870. He called it the "Cleveland Shale" and designated its type locality at Doan Brook near Cleveland. Details of the type locality and of stratigraphic nomenclature for this unit as used by the U.S. Geological Survey are available on-line at the National Geologic Map Database.

Description

The primary minerals in the Cleveland Shale are chlorite, illite, pyrite, and quartz. Underground, the Cleveland Shale is black, dull grayish-black, bluish-black, or brownish-black in color. In exposed outcrops, it weathers to red, reddish-brown, or medium brown. Highly weathered rock turns gray. It is fairly fissile, breaking into thin, irregularly shaped sheets or flakes that occasionally display crystals of pickeringite. Relieved of stress once exposed, the Cleveland Shale is nonplastic and can appear as if fragmented into blocks due to jointing.

Pyrite basal boundary
There is a sharp and clear distinction between the Cleveland Shale and underlying Chagrin Shale. At the very bottom of the Cleveland Shale there is a thin, discontinuous layer of pyrite. This pyrite layer is discontinuous because after this rock was laid down, it was eroded. The erosion increases as one moves south along the valley of the Cuyahoga River and east to the Grand River. Portions of the pyrite layer, known as Skinner's Run Bed, contain fragments of petrified wood and fossilized fish bones worn smooth by the action of water. Above the pyrite layer, a limestone layer is found in west-central (but not eastern) Ohio.

The remainder of the Cleveland Shale generally consists of a relatively hard, organic rich oil shale. It has both an upper and lower part.

Lower part
A clay shale, described as bluish or bluish-gray and as olive-black to brownish-black, forms the lower part. The lower part can be anywhere from a few inches to several feet in thickness. This layer is sometimes referred to as the Olmstead shale. This layer has been dated to between 362.6 and 361.0 million years old based on conodont biozones (Bispathodus aculeatus aculeatus to Bispathodus ultimus ultimus zones). Thin beds of gray or brown siltstone, lumps of pyrite, and layers of silica-heavy limestone with cone-in-cone structures are found in the lower part. In eastern Ohio, thin gray veins ("stringers") of siltstone appear. In western Ohio, the Cleveland Shale appears to interbed with the Chagrin Shale below it, erasing the clear boundary between the two rock formations.

Upper part
The upper part of the Cleveland Shale is a black to brownish black silty shale with occasional thin beds of gray shale and siltstone. The upper part is much richer in petroleum and kerogen. When broken open, fresh samples smell like crude oil. Where the upper part is thick, and particularly in northeast Ohio, the shale has a distinctive "rippled" appearance. The upper  of the Cleveland Shale contains abundant nodules of phosphate, nodules and bands (extremely thin beds) of pyrite, bands of calcisiltite, and lamination. Almost no concretions are found in the upper part.

Geographic extent

The Cleveland Shale is a shale geologic formation in Ohio in the United States.
The Cleveland Shale underlies much of northeast Ohio in beds of varying thickness.

In northeast Ohio, the member does not appear east of the Grand River.
Measurements taken in northeast Ohio show the Cleveland Shale to be  to  thick. It is thickest around the Rocky River north of Berea, Ohio, and thins to the east, west, and south.

The Cleveland Shale is found in east-central Kentucky. In east-central Kentucky, the Cleveland Shale is more uniform in thickness, ranging from , and increases in thickness toward the east.

The unit is also present in West Virginia and in southwest Virginia, where it is mapped as the Cleveland Member of the Ohio Shale.

Stratigraphic Setting
The Cleveland Shale (or Cleveland Member) is a sub-unit of the Ohio Shale Formation. The Chagrin Shale underlies the Cleveland Shale. The Bedford Shale generally overlies the Cleveland Shale, with a sharp distinction between the two. In west-central Ohio, more than  of Bedford Shale may lie above the Cleveland Shale. In places, red and grey shale may intertongue (interlock) with the Cleveland Shale extensively. In far eastern Ohio, the Bedford Shale thins by more than . Where the Cussewago Shale is also present, the Bedford Shale is usually less than  and may be locally absent. In some areas, the Cleveland Shale is described as overstepped or unconformably overlaid gradationally by Berea Siltstone and sharply by Berea Sandstone.

It is the regional equivalent of the Hangenberg Black Shale and the Bakken Shale.

Fossils
Exceptional marine animal fossils are found in the formation. The Cleveland Shale is generally considered to be fossil-poor, but there are exceptions. The basal pyrite layer contains petrified wood and fossilized fish bones. The lower part is famous for its extensive and well-preserved fossil Chondrichthyans (including Cladoselache), Conodonts, Placodermi, and palaeoniscinoids ray-finned fishes. The giant predatory placoderms Dunkleosteus terrelli, Gorgonichthys clarki, Gymnotrachelus hydei, Heintzichthys gouldii, and five subspecies (including the type specimen) of Titanichthys were all discovered in the Cleveland Shale. The Cleveland Shale is classified as a konservatte-lagerstatten, which means it often preserves complete body fossils. Typical early shark preservation includes soft tissue outlines and impressions, fin rays, gill musculature, cartilage, and stomach contents. Placoderms in the Cleveland Shale typically do not show any good soft-tissue preservation.

Age
The Cleveland Shale is approximately 362.6 to 360.1 million years old, daing to the very latest part of the Devonian period, the Fammenian, based on biostratigraphy from conodonts and plant spores. The Cleveland Shale extends all the way to the Hangenberg mass extinction that ended the Devonian but does not reach the very end of the Devonian period. Unlike the Permian-Triassic extinction and Cretaceous-Paleogene extinction the Devonian-Carboniferous boundary does not correlate with the mass extinction event at the end of this period. The Bedford Shale and Berea Sandstone represent Devonian layers that post-date the Devonian-Carboniferous extinction but were deposited on top of the Cleveland Shale, and encompass some of the recovery fauna otherwise typical of the Carboniferous in the aftermath of the Hangenberg Event.

The upper 2.5 m of the Cleveland Shale has been chemostratigraphically correlated with the Hangenberg Event and the type stratigraphy in Germany, suggesting that the Cleveland Shale preserves the second of the two mass extinction events that together comprise the late Devonian extinction

Interpretation of depositional environments
The Cleveland Shale is likely the regional expression of the Dasberg Event, a major extinction event that occurred near the end of the Devonian period.
The Cleveland Shale is interpreted as having accumulated in an anaerobic environment. Evidence exists to suggest that the Cleveland Shale was laid down during the Dasberg event, an Upper Famennian extinction event that devastated land-based flora and marine-based fauna. This led to a significant drop in marine oxygen (an anoxic event) and atmospheric carbon dioxide,
and then a brief glaciation. The global environment recovered, only to suffer another extinction, the Hangenberg event, close to the Devonian-Carboniferous boundary. While the Cleveland Shale was being deposited, extensive organic matter from the land was swept into the sea then lying over Ohio. Although there is dispute over how deep this sea was, the Dasberg event meant that oceans could support few to no bottom-dwelling animals. This explains why the Cleveland Shale largely lacks fossils of benthic organisms and has a high carbon content that colors the shale very dark gray to black.

The contact between the Chagrin Shale and Cleveland Shale has been described as interbedding. This feature is interpreted as having been caused when two different depositional environments (in this case, the oxygenated sea which laid down the Chagrin Shale and the anaerobic sea rich in organic matter which laid down the Cleveland Shale) moved repeatedly back and forth over the same area. Geologist Horace R. Collins called the boundary area intercalated, but it is unclear what meaning he intended.

Different hypotheses have been suggested as the cause of the regional, irregular contact between the Cleveland Shale and Bedford Formation. Charles E.B. Conybeare has noted that the Cleveland Shale is siltier in the east and more calcareous in the west. He hypothesized that this indicates that silt flowed into the sea from east to west. Current eroded the Cleveland Shale and then laid down new sediment in the gullies which became the Bedford Formation. Jack C. Pashin and Frank R. Ettensohn proposed a variation on this hypothesis. They note that the region containing the Cleveland Shale was undergoing uplift when the Bedford Formation was being deposited. This likely led to exposure and erosion of the Cleveland Shale, with sediment which became the Bedford Formation filling in these gullies. They also observe that there is evidence of diapirism (the intrusion of deformable Cleveland Shale upward into the more brittle Bedford Formation), as well as intertonguing. Baird et al. note that the Cleveland Shale also tilts downward to the south. They suggest that this caused overstepping, rather than intertonguing.

Economic geology
The high organic content of the Cleveland Shale makes it eminently suitable for the formation of fossil fuels. One 1981 study found that the Cleveland Shale can yield an average of  of petroleum per  of rock. The Cleveland Shale also contains cannel coal and "true" coal, although neither in great quantity.

title: Chagrin Shale

text:
The Chagrin Shale is a shale geologic formation in the eastern United States that is approximately 365 million years old.  The Chagrin Shale is a gray shale that begins thin and deep underground in north-central Ohio. As it proceeds east, the formation thickens, rises to the surface, and contains greater amounts of siltstone.

Identification and name
The Chagrin Shale was identified in 1873 and named for the Chagrin River in 1903.  John Strong Newberry, director of the Ohio State Geological Survey, first identified the formation in 1873. He called it the Erie Shale, but it was discovered that the name "Erie Shale" was preoccupied (already in use). Ohio State University professor of geology Charles S. Prosser further described the formation in 1903, and proposed the name "Chagrin Shale" because the shale presented such excellent outcroppings near the Chagrin River. Dr. Prosser's suggested nomenclature was adopted. Details of the type locality and of stratigraphic nomenclature of the Chagrin Shale, as used by the U.S. Geological Survey, are available on-line at the National Geologic Map Database.

Description
The Chagrin Shale is a gray or greenish-gray argillaceous shale consisting of gray siltstone, silty gray shale, soft gray clay shale, and (uncommonly) grayish-black shale. The primary minerals in the shale are chlorite, illite, kaolinite, and quartz. Thin to massive beds of siltstone and sandstone are common. The amount of siltstone increases from west to east, at times forming beds up to  thick. Thin layers of ironstone and marcasite, as well as concentrations of marcasite, occur throughout the shale.

The Chagrin Shale is classified as a weak to medium-strong rock, with a compressive strength anywhere from  to . The strength of the rock is much lower near soil/rock interface (where there is stress relief), and if there is weathering.

Geographic Extent
The Chagrin Shale is found in north-central and northeastern Ohio, and in northwestern Pennsylvania. The Chagrin Shale reaches a maximum thickness of  in eastern Ohio.  In Ohio, the Chagrin Shale is thin in the west, and thickens as it proceeds east.

The Chagrin Shale also extends south into West Virginia.
The unit is also present in Kentucky, where it is mapped as the Chagrin Shale tongue of the Ohio Shale.

Stratigraphic Setting
  In Ohio, the Chagrin Shale underlies the Cleveland Shale and overlies the Huron Shale.

It is a member of the Ohio Shale.    The Chagrin Shale grades into and between the Cleveland and Huron Shales.

Fossils
The fossils found in the Chagrin Shale include the coelacanth fish Chagrinia, plants, and trace fossils including the ichnogenus Chagrinichnites.

Age
The fossils in the Chagrin Shale indicate that the unit is of the Late Devonian period. More precisely, the Chagrin Shale is of the Famennian stage, which is approximately 365 million years old.

Interpretation of Depositional Environments
The Chagrin Shale is interpreted as having accumulated in a shallow marine, offshore to nearshore environment of normal salinity and less than 45 meters water depth.

Economic Geology
Hydrogen sulfide and (more frequently) methane gas are found in the Chagrin Shale. On some occasions, these pockets of gas have proven quite large, and when reached by drills have vented for several weeks. Water infiltration of the formation on a sustained or large scale is rarely seen.

title: Krasimir Kochev

text:
Krasimir Simeonov Kochev (; born May 4, 1974, in Petrich) is an amateur Bulgarian freestyle wrestler, who competed in the men's heavyweight category. Considered one of Bulgaria's top freestyle wrestlers in his decade, Kochev has claimed two career medals (one silver and one bronze) at the World Championships (2001 and 2003), picked up a bronze at the 2005 European Championships in Varna, and achieved top seventeen finishes in two editions of the Olympic Games (2000 and 2004). Throughout his sporting career, Kochev trained as a member of the freestyle wrestling team for Slavia Sport Club in Sofia, under his head coach Simeon Shcherev.

Kochev made his official debut at the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney, where he competed in the men's super heavyweight division (130 kg). He lost his opening match to Cuba's Alexis Rodríguez without receiving a single point on the morning session, but pulled off a 1–1 draw to tame Mongolia's Dolgorsürengiin Sumyaabazar at the end of the round-robin. Finishing second in the prelim pool and twelfth overall, Kochev's performance fell short to put him further into the quarterfinals.

When his nation Bulgaria hosted the 2001 World Wrestling Championships in Sofia, Kochev lowered his weight to less than a hundred kilograms to compete in the 97-kg division. Despite being brought by the massive roar of the home crowd, Kochev suffered a disappointing defeat from Russia's Giorgi Gogshelidze (who later represented Georgia in two Olympic Games) in the final match 0–3, but luckily picked up a silver medal for the host nation. Two years later, at the 2003 World Wrestling Championships in New York City, New York, United States, Kochev came strong with a bronze medal effort in the 96-kg division, which effectively earned him a ticket to his second Olympics.

At the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens, Kochev qualified for his second Bulgarian squad, as a 30-year-old, in the men's heavyweight class (96 kg) by placing third and receiving a berth from the World Championships. Unlike his previous Olympics, Kochev made an embarrassing exit with two straight defeats from Kyrgyzstan's Aleksey Krupnyakov (2–3) and Uzbekistan's Magomed Ibragimov (0–3), leaving him on the bottom of the pool and finishing seventeenth overall in the final standings.

title: Warm Air Research House

text:
The Warm Air Research House is a historic house and research facility located at 1108 W. Stoughton St. in Urbana, Illinois. Built in 1924, the house served as a warm-air heating research facility administered jointly by the National Warm-Air Heating and Ventilating Association and the University of Illinois Department of Mechanical Engineering. Prior to the 1920s, the American heating industry had few formal testing procedures for their products, and home heating through warm-air ventilation ducts was still considered a novel concept. The National Warm-Air Heating and Ventilating Association began to test heating methods and systems in the Department of Mechanical Engineering's laboratories, but it eventually needed a model house in which to test its domestic heating systems. The two organizations commissioned the large Colonial Revival residence, which was designed by architect Loring Harvey Provine and graduate student Clarence Andrew Kissinger. Beginning in 1932, research on air conditioning and cooling systems was also conducted in the house. Following World War II, the facility became less useful due to the shrinking size of new American homes, and the university sold the house in 1946. Some of the technologies developed in the house include storm windows, forced-air heating, and heating duct size and positioning.

The house was added to the National Register of Historic Places on June 12, 2001.

title: BH Crucis

text:
BH Crucis, also known as Welch's Red Variable, is a star in the constellation Crux. A long period (Mira-type) variable, its apparent magnitude ranges from 6.6 to 9.8 over 530 days. Hence at its brightest it is barely visible with the unaided eye in a rural sky. A red giant, it had been classified ranging between spectral types SC4.5/8-e and SC7/8-e, but appears to have evolved into a C-type (carbon star) spectrum by 2011.

Ronald G. Welch discovered the star while looking for new variables in October 1969. In the first thirty years since discovery, it has become redder and brighter (mean magnitude changing from 8.047 to 7.762) and its period lengthened by 25% from 421 to 530 days. Retrospective examination of photographic plates taken in South West Africa in 1937 and 1951 and stored at Sonneberg Observatory suggest the amplitude of variation might have been smaller in the earliest records. A study of the star published in 2011 found that the increase in period appeared to have stopped or even begun reversing (estimated at 524 days in 2011), and that the spectral class had changed from SC to C, with carbon emission becoming more prominent. Technetium was also recorded in the emission spectrum and its surface temperature deemed to have cooled to 3000 K. Unusually for a Mira variable, BH Crucis had a double maximum, with two peaks in brightness, reminiscent of an RV Tauri variable. However, with the lengthening of its period, this feature disappeared.

Guandalini and Cristallo calculated the luminosity of Mira variables based on their periods. Using a period of 421 days, they calculated the absolute magnitude of BH Crucis to be -4.80. Uttenthaler and colleagues calculated a bolometric magnitude of -5.59. Gaia Data Release 2 gives a parallax of  and a corresponding distance of around .

title: W Crucis

text:
W Crucis is a single-lined eclipsing variable star system in the constellation Crux.  It has a spectral class of F8/G1Ia/abe indicating a yellow supergiant with emission lines in its spectrum.

W Crucis varies in brightness between magnitude 8.18 and 9.01 over a period of 198.5 days.  Its light curve has been observed to be asymmetric with subsequent maxima differing in height, which is described as the so-called O'Connell effect.  A secondary minimum is observed when the brightness drops to magnitude 8.5.  The shape and duration of the eclipses show that the two stars are detached and that there is an accretion disk around the primary, more massive, star.

Spectral lines can only be seen for one of the stars, a yellow supergiant.  The other, more massive, star is hidden within an accretion disk of material stripped from the supergiant.  The hidden star has properties that suggest it is a mid-B main sequence star.  The two are separated by , about .  The hot main sequence star has a mass of , while the supergiant only has a mass of .  The supergiant is deformed by the gravity of the more massive primary star, fills its Roche lobe, and is losing mass.

The disk around the hot star is  wide and  thick, with a temperature at its outer visible edge of .  It is the source of the emission lines seen in the spectrum.
