title: Parliamentary War Memorial

text:
The Parliamentary War Memorial, also known as the Recording Angel Memorial, is a stone sculpture in Westminster Hall, unveiled in 1922, which commemorates the members of both Houses of Parliament of the United Kingdom who died in the First World War.  It names 22 members of the House of Commons, 20 members of the House of Lords, and 9 senior members of staff, together with another 94 sons of members and officers of the House of Commons, who lost their lives in the war.  (Sons of peers and of officers of the House of Lords are commemorated on the wooden panels of the House of Lords War Memorial in the Royal Gallery.) Above the memorial is a large stained glass window which commemorates members and staff of both Houses who died in the Second World War.

History

Planning for the Parliamentary War Memorial began in July 1917.  A parliamentary committee chose a site below a large gothic window in St Stephen's Porch, at the south end of Westminster Hall.  Designs were sought from Walter Tapper, George Frampton and Bertram Mackennal.  A design by Australian sculptor Bertram Mackennal (1863–1931) was chosen, modifying an existing Victorian screen by adding the elements that now form the central section of the memorial: a winged figure representing the recording angel, flanked by two arched panels bearing names of the fallen.  Mackennal's design also include a cupola above, with a Gothic arch and bronze statuettes of the patron saints of England, Scotland, Ireland and Wales.  The two Portland stone panels and angel were inserted into the existing screen of Caen stone in 1921.

Modifications were made in 1922, removing the mullions from the flanking sections of the Victorian screen to insert six further panels, three on either side, to record the names of the sons of MPs and officers of the House of Commons killed in the war.  Columns separate the central section from the flanking sections, each topped by a gilt-bronze statuette: one representing the virtue of Faith and the other Fortitude.  The extended memorial was unveiled by Edward, Prince of Wales (later Edward VIII) in 1922.

The memorial suffered bomb damage in the Second World War.  Early on 27 September 1940, a bomb fell in Old Palace Yard, blowing a hole in the window above the memorial, originally designed by Augustus Pugin.  Masonry from the window's tracery fell on the memorial, knocking off the cupola, breaking off the angel's feet, and dislodging several panels of names. There were plans to extend the memorial to include the fallen of the Second World War, but eventually it was decided that a new stained glass window would become the memorial to members and staff of both Houses who died in that War.  The new window was designed by Sir Ninian Comper and includes the service badges and armorial bearings or initials of 22 MPs, 34 Peers, and 5 members of staff (including two police officers). After structural repairs to St Stephen's Porch were completed, the restoration was undertaken from 1951.  The cupola was left out of the final design, to prevent it obstructing the view of the new window.  The bronze statue of St Andrew from the cupola is now in the Parliamentary Art Collection, but the statues of St George, St Patrick and St David have disappeared.

In 2018 former MP Gerald Arbuthnot, who was killed during the Battle of the Somme was added to the memorial, after it was noted he had been accidentally omitted for 96 years.

Related memorials
Further war memorials in the Houses of Parliament include books of remembrance for both Houses of Parliament, a memorial for other members of staff in Chancellors Court, a memorial for Parliamentary journalists in the Press Gallery, and 42 heraldic shields in the House of Commons, one for each MP killed on active service during the World Wars. Shields above the north and south entrances of the Commons Chamber honour Airey Neave and three other MPs who were killed by the Irish Republican Army and Irish National Liberation Army.

title: Apterostigma electropilosum

text:
Apterostigma electropilosum is an extinct species of ant in the subfamily Myrmicinae known from a single possibly Miocene fossil found on Hispaniola. A. electropilosum is one of only two species of the ant genus Apterostigma  and one of five attini species to have been described from fossils found in Dominican amber.

History and classification
Apterostigma electropilosum is known from a solitary fossil insect which is an inclusion in a transparent chunk of Dominican amber. The amber was produced by the extinct Hymenaea protera, which formerly grew on Hispaniola, across northern South America and up to southern Mexico. The specimens were collected from an undetermined amber mine in fossil bearing rocks of the Cordillera Septentrional mountains, northern Dominican Republic. The amber dates from at least the Burdigalian stage of the Miocene, based on studying the associated fossil foraminifera and may be as old as the Middle Eocene, based on the associated fossil coccoliths. This age range is due to the host rock being secondary deposits for the amber, and the Miocene the age range is only the youngest that it might be.

The holotype amber specimen, number DR-14-984, is currently preserved in the amber collections of the US National Museum, and is labeled as part of the Smithsonian Institution ant database as number 00443127. The fossil was first studied by entomologist Ted R. Schultz of the National Museum of Natural History with his 2007 type description of the new species being published in the journal Memoirs of the American Entomological Institute. The specific epithet electropilosum is a combination of the Latin electrum meaning "amber" and pilosum, the Apterostigma species group which A. electropilosum it part of.

Prior to the species formal description in 2007, no Apterostigma species were known from the fossil record, however three other Attini species were already known from Dominican Amber, Trachymyrmex primaevus, Cyphomyrmex maya, and Cyphomyrmex taino.  Schultz's paper described a second Dominican amber Apterostigma species, A. eowilsoni. Bringing the total Attini fossil record to five species.

Description
The Apterostigma electropilosum specimen is well preserved with an estimated Weber's length of  and a head length of . The overall coloration of the species is hard to determine due to a sporadic microscopic coating of fine bubbles, possibly of oil or other liquid from punctures in the integument after entombment by the resin. The body has a fine covering of simple upright setae which reach a total length of .  The head capsule shows a clypeus which is smooth and shiny, a feature seen in the living pilosum group of Apterostigma species. The occiput, rear area of the head capsule, is elongated to a slight neck with a smooth integument surface. The antennae are composed of eleven segments, in which the tip segment is 2.5 times the length of the next segment.  The eyes are rounded and bulbous in structure with a circumference of ten ommatidia.  While the clypeus structure places A. electropilosum in the pilosum group, the combination of rounded frontal head capsule lobes, mandibles with eleven teeth, and the angle of clypeus border is not seen in any extant species.

title: Sahara Sue

text:
Sahara Sue is the informal nickname given to a murder victim who was found in Las Vegas, Nevada, on August 14, 1979. Her identity is unknown. She was nicknamed "Sahara Sue" because her body was found near the Sahara Hotel in Las Vegas, at the intersection of Sahara and Las Vegas Boulevard. Recent developments indicate she may have used the name "Shawna" or "Shauna" when she was alive.

The victim is also known by the fact that she was wearing a complete upper denture despite her young age, but the lower denture was missing. She was photographed, reconstructed, fingerprinted, and had her DNA analyzed, yet she has remained unidentified for over 40 years.

Discovery
Sahara Sue's body was found lying face down in a parking lot on August 14, 1979. It was estimated that she had died three to four hours before being found. She had been stabbed several times in the abdomen.

It has been reported that a woman matching her description was seen with a white man before discovery of the body.

Description
Sahara Sue was a white woman with brown eyes and wavy light brown hair. She was 5 feet 6 inches tall and weighed 100 – 105 pounds. Her age has been estimated to be between 15 and 30. She had no teeth and did wear at least one denture, as the maxillary piece was discovered in her mouth after the body was located. The mandibular piece was not recovered. The nails on her feet and hands had been manicured and painted with red polish.

She was wearing a shirt and hip-hugger jeans. Her shirt was blue and made of linen, with a tie near the waist area. It had red embroidered designs and sequins. Her shoes were not found and it was evident that the killer had removed some of her clothing.

Jewelry
On her right hand, she had a ring made of white metal without any stone. She was wearing two pendant necklaces made of white metal. One pendant had a leaf design and a round turquoise stone. The other was made of plastic and was heart-shaped with a rose design. She was not wearing earrings, and her ears had not been pierced.

Investigation
Fingerprints were taken from the body and entered into national databases, but no match was found. Her body was exhumed in 2003 to obtain DNA but no match was found. In 2011, her DNA was tested to see if she was a match to Deborah Rae Meyer, who had vanished in August 1974. They both had dentures and shared similarities, but DNA testing proved they were not the same person and Meyer remains missing. Through these forms of body identification, at least seven missing people have been ruled out as possible identities for Sahara Sue. Pictures of her face have also been released to public websites, and multiple reconstructions of her face also exist.

In 2016, investigation yielded several major developments in the victim's case. Forensic palynology on her clothing indicated she had spent time in Napa Valley or Central Valley of California sometime before her murder. Another potential lead was followed that suggested that Sahara Sue may have ties to a trailer park in the area. Further investigation indicated she might have used the name "Shawna" or "Shauna" and may have been employed at a Holiday Inn or another motel on Las Vegas Boulevard.

The Fort Payne Main Street Historic District is a historic district in Fort Payne, Alabama.  Centered on the intersection of Gault Avenue and 1st Street, the district contains commercial and public buildings that date from Fort Payne's second period of growth from the 1920s to World War II.  Buildings from the first wave of development in the 1880s and 1890s are centered in the Fort Payne Boom Town Historic District to the northeast.  Most of the commercial buildings are in a simple, utilitarian brick style.  The later civic buildings exhibit more decorated styles, including the Classical Revival Post Office (built 1936), and the Art Moderne City Hall (1941) and DeKalb County Activities Building (1941).  The district was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1989.

title: Susie's Law

text:
Susie's Law (House Bill 1690) is a 2010 North Carolina state law which authorizes up to two years in jail for convicted perpetrators of cruelty to animals.

Passage of legislation

The law is named for "Susie", a part pit bull, part German Shepherd, which as a puppy was rescued by a man who found her on August 20, 2009, in Greenfield Park in Greensboro, North Carolina, having been set on fire, in torment and left to die.

The man took Susie to his nearby home where he then contacted Guilford County Animal Control to take her to a veterinarian. Susie was found to be suffering from severe second and third-degree burns over most of her body; her ears were burned off, and she had a broken jaw and teeth.

An animal cruelty investigation was launched by Guilford County Animal Control, but due to limited resources the investigation was taken over by a detective with Greensboro Police Department who set up a crimestoppers tip line. After a few months a tip was received and Lashawn Demaro Whitehead was arrested and charged with animal cruelty.

Susie was adopted by Donna Smith Lawrence, who had been seriously injured in an attack by a pit bull, which she had befriended, several months prior. Donna and her husband, Roy, reside in High Point, North Carolina.

The law reclassifies the "malicious abuse, torture, or killing" of an animal from a Class I to a Class H felony, with the ten-month potential period of confinement. LaShawn Whitehead received a two-year prison sentence on conviction of indecent liberties with a minor and burning his girlfriend's personal property, according to records of the North Carolina Department of Correction. At the time abuse of Whitehead's own dog would have netted no jail time, but Whitehead was found guilty of abusing an animal owned by another person, which brought jail time.

Susie's Law was passed unanimously in both the North Carolina State Senate and North Carolina House of Representatives and was signed into law by North Carolina Governor Beverly Perdue, and took effect on December 1, 2010. Passage was possible through intense citizen involvement when Susie's abuse became public, and fund-raising appeals met with great success.

Aftermath

The 2013 film Susie's Hope by Uplifting Entertainment focuses on the Lawrences' story and their work to protect vulnerable animals. Emmanuelle Vaugier, a Canadian, is cast as Donna, Burgess Jenkins, a native of Winston-Salem, North Carolina, as Roy, and Andrea Powell as Ramona Hodges, Donna's close friend and neighbor. Jon Provost, former child actor on CBS's Lassie, appeared as then North Carolina State Senator Don Vaughan, a Democrat from Greensboro who pushed for passage of Susie's Law. Willette Thompson portrays Marsha Williams, the outspoken director of the Guilford County Animal Shelter in Greensboro. The name of LaShawn Whitehead is changed in the film to Shawn Griffin, with Cranston Johnson cast in the part.

Now a certified therapy dog, Susie is regularly taken to schools, churches, and hospitals to warn of the danger of animal abuse and to promote kindness and respect. In 2014, the American Humane Association named Susie its "Hero Dog" in the category of "Dog Therapy".

The Iraqi Super Cup (), previously called Iraqi Perseverance Cup (), is Iraqi football's annual match contested between the champions of the previous Iraq Stars League season and the holders of the Iraq FA Cup. If the Stars League champions also won the FA Cup then the league runners-up provide the opposition. The fixture is a recognised football super cup. Extra-time is not played in the case of a draw; the game goes straight to penalties instead.

The current holders are Al-Shorta, who defeated Al-Karkh 1–0 in the 2022 match.

History
Before 1973, league tournaments in Iraq were played at a regional level and there was a cup called the Iraq Central FA Perseverance Cup played between the winners and runners-up of the Iraq Central FA Premier League. Twelve years after the foundation of the Iraqi National Clubs League, the Perseverance Cup was played as a national tournament for the first time, and it was between Al-Talaba and Al-Rasheed, the winners and runners-up of the 1985–86 Iraqi National League.

It took another eleven years for the tournament to resume, returning in 1997 as a match between the winners of the Iraqi Premier League and the Iraq FA Cup. The 1997 and 1998 editions were played at the end of the season to bring a close to the campaign, but from 1999 onwards, the cup was played before the start of the following league season as a 'curtain-raiser' to the new league campaign.

From the 2003–04 season until the 2014–15 season, the Iraq FA Cup was either not played or not completed. It was finally completed in 2015–16, and therefore the Iraqi Perseverance Cup under the new name of Iraqi Super Cup was scheduled to be played in August of that year, but it was cancelled due to scheduling difficulties. The Iraqi Super Cup eventually returned in 2017.

Rules
The rules of the Super Cup are generally the same as those of the Stars League, with a team of 11 starting players and 9 substitutes, with five substitutions permitted. If the scores are level after 90 minutes, the teams play a penalty shootout. If a team wins both the Stars League and the FA Cup, the runner-up from the Stars League will play.

title: Artyom Loskutov

text:
Artyom Aleksandrovich  Loskutov (; born September 15, 1986) is a Russian performance artist and an activist. He is known for an annual Monstration held in Novosibirsk that gently pokes fun at Kremlin policies. He has been arrested for insulting police. In response to the incident he said, "You're not a real Russian until you've been arrested."

In 2013, Loskutov was informed by Russian authorities that he is no longer allowed to practice art and to perform as an individual artist.

Loskutov exhibited at London's Saatchi Gallery in November 2017 as part of the Art Riot exhibition.

In 2019 Loskutov allegedly organized stealing from the New York City's Central Park the plaque previously affixed to one the benches; the plaque, according to Alexei Navalny's investigation, was a gift from Russian state television anchor Nailya Asker-Zade to a prominent Russian banker Andrey Kostin. Loskutov proclaimed the plaque being a ready-made art object titled “Without love, nothing works” and sold it through an on-line auction for 1.5 million rubles ($23,600), then transferred the money to a charity.

title: Sanie cu zurgălăi

text:
"Sanie cu zurgălăi" (Romanian for "Sleigh with bells") is a Romanian language song composed in 1936 by Jewish-Romanian composer Richard Stein. Romanian language lyrics were written by Liviu Deleanu. The song was recorded in 1937 by Silvian Florin and by Petre Alexandru. The song was later covered and re-arranged by numerous musicians in different languages. Most notable covers are by Les Paul, under the title "Johnny Is the Boy for Me" (1952) in English, by Edith Piaf (1953) and Vaya con Dios (1988) as "Johnny, tu n'es pas un ange" in French, and  by Zvonko Bogdan as "Svaku ženu volim ja" (1988) in Serbo-Croatian.

The song was the cause of a long-lasting court battle between Stein and Paul over plagiarism charges. Stein eventually won the case.

Original Romanian version
"Sanie cu zurgălăi" was composed in 1936 by composer Richard Stein (1909-1992) especially for Maria Tănase, who refused to sing it considering the song of low quality. The lyrics were written by Liviu Deleanu, Jewish-Romanian poet and playwright.

Subsequently, the song was recorded by Silvian Florin for His Master's Voice (cat. no. JB 163) and Radio Romania archives. It was also recorded the same year by Ionel Pascu, for less known label Pan (formerly Lifa, cat. No. P 9). On the cover of the original music sheet, which appeared in late 1937, the song was subtitled "Cling, cling, cling".

The modern version of the song, the best known today, was recorded in 1949 by folk singer Maria Lătărețu for Columbia Records (cat. no. DR435). The chorus was added and some lyrics changed.

Cover versions
In 1953, American jazz, country and blues guitarist Les Paul covered the Mary Lătăreţu version of the song under the title "Johnny Is the Boy for Me". English language lyrics, not connected to the Romanian original, were written by English lyricist and singer Paddy Roberts and Belgian producer and songwriter Marcel Stellman. Vocals were provided by Mary Ford, Paul's wife. Paul's version was recorded in 1953 for Capitol Records (cat. No. 2486).

Few months later, "Johnny" was heard by Édith Piaf, who recorded her cover of Paul's version in December 1953 for Columbia Records (cat. No. BF 596) with French lyrics under the title "Johnny, tu n'es pas un ange". French lyrics were written by Francis Lemarque (1917-2002). On Piaf's record, the music was credited to Paul.

Stein subsequently become a lawyer and sued Paul for plagiarism in the 1950s. It was one of the first lawsuits for plagiarism in music. Some Romanian sources indicate that Stein won the case, but the ASCAP/BMI publishing database to this day still credits "Johnny Is The Boy For Me" entirely and solely to Les Paul, Paddy Roberts and Marcel Stellman.

In 1988, Belgian band Vaya Con Dios recorded a cover of  Piaf's "Johnny, tu n'es pas un ange" in French on their debut album Vaya Con Dios. On the record, the song was attributed to Édith Piaf, Les Paul and Francis Lemarque. In July 2001, nine years after Stein's death, UCMR-ADA (Romanian Musical Performing and Mechanical Rights Society) sued Vaya Con Dios for plagiarism because the band paid royalties to Les Paul instead of Stein.

In 2009, the song was featured in the Ubisoft game Rabbids Go Home, performed by the Moldovan gypsy brass band Fanfare Vagabontu.

In 2010, the Israeli artist Yoni Eilat recorded a Yiddish cover of the song, "Vint un fayer" (), for his album "Tzigayner Neshume".

title: Dana Boente

text:
Dana James Boente ( Bent-Ë) (born February 7, 1954) is an American attorney who served as General Counsel of the FBI from January 2018 to 2020, United States Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia from September 2013 to January 2018, and as the Acting United States Attorney General from January to February 2017. He also served as acting assistant attorney general for the National Security Division of the United States Department of Justice. On October 27, 2017, Boente announced he would resign from the Department of Justice after a successor is in place. On January 23, 2018, Boente was named general counsel to the FBI by the director Christopher A. Wray, filling the vacancy after James Baker's reassignment to another part of the bureau.

Early life and education
Boente was born in Carlinville, Illinois in 1954 to James and Doris Boente. Boente received a Bachelor of Science degree in business administration in 1976 from Saint Louis University and his Master of Business Administration in 1977. He then attended the Saint Louis University School of Law, receiving his Juris Doctor in 1982.

Career
In 1982, Boente began his career as a law clerk for Chief U.S. District Judge J. Waldo Ackerman for the Central District of Illinois. In 1984, he joined the Tax Division's Criminal Section as part of the Attorney General's Honors Program. Boente became an Assistant U.S. Attorney in the Fraud Unit of the Eastern District of Virginia in 2001.

In December 2012, Boente was appointed by President Barack Obama to serve as the U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia, a position he held until September 2013. He became the Acting U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia by virtue of the Vacancy Reform Act on September 23, 2013, and served in that position until December 15, 2015. In this role, he was involved in the sentencing of former Virginia governor Bob McDonnell and his wife Maureen. He stated that, "No one is above the law... not a high public official, not even the highest public official [in Virginia]." McDonnell's conviction was unanimously overturned by the United States Supreme Court on June 27, 2016, with Chief Justice John Roberts declaring that McDonnell's actions as governor were "tawdry", but agreed that instructions to the jury in his case about what constitutes "official acts" were so broad, they could cover almost any action a public official takes. The Justice Department, against the wishes of Boente's office, decided not to re-try either McDonnell and dismissed all charges.

He was nominated on October 8, 2015, and confirmed by the United States Senate on December 15, 2015, as the 60th U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia and was confirmed by the United States Senate via voice vote on December 15, 2015. Boente was one of the 46 United States Attorneys ordered by Attorney General Jeff Sessions on March 10, 2017 to tender their resignation; Trump declined to accept his.

Boente was not in the line of succession of the Attorney General of the United States pursuant to Executive Order 13762 signed by President Barack Obama before leaving office. He was appointed by President Donald Trump as Acting Attorney General on January 30, 2017, after Acting Attorney General Sally Yates was dismissed by Trump earlier that evening. When Jeff Sessions was confirmed and sworn in as Attorney General on February 9, 2017, Boente became Acting Deputy Attorney General. Also on February 9, 2017, Trump signed Executive Order 13775 to replace Obama's EO, an action which modified the order of succession to add Boente to the list.

Sessions recused himself from all matters pertaining to American presidential campaigns because of revelations that he had communications with Russian Ambassador to the U.S. Sergey Kislyak during the 2016 United States presidential election, Boente was designated to perform the functions of the Attorney General with respect to campaign issues until the permanent deputy attorney general, Rod J. Rosenstein, was confirmed and sworn into office which took place on April 25, 2017.

On October 27, 2017 Boente announced his intention to resign as U.S. Attorney and as acting assistant attorney general for the National Security Division; he said he would remain in the positions until a replacement is confirmed.

On January 23, 2018, Boente was named general counsel to the FBI by Director Christopher Wray, filling the vacancy after James Baker's reassignment to another part of the bureau.

On May 29, 2020, Boente resigned from the Federal Bureau of Investigation, effective June 30.

Personal life
Boente has lived in Northern Virginia since 1984.

title: Mattress coil

text:
Mattress coils, also known as mattress springs, are coil springs used in a mattress. Coils are primarily used in the core (support layer) of innerspring mattresses, which is their original use. In recent years, small "micro-coils" are being used in the upholstery (comfort layer) of mattresses, primarily with a coil core ("coil-on-coil" construction), but sometimes with other core types.

Mattress coils were introduced in the mid-late 19th century, and remain popular in the 21st century, particularly in the United States.

Types
There are four types of mattress coils. A key desideratum is "response range", meaning the change in firmness as the spring is compressed – initially soft, to conform to the body, then hard, to provide support. In increasing order of response range and cost, the types are:

 Continuous coils (the Leggett & Platt brand name is "Mira-coil") is an innerspring configuration in which the rows of coils are formed from a single piece of wire. They work in a hinging effect similar to that of offset coils.
 Bonnell coils are the oldest and most common. First adapted from buggy seat springs of the 19th century, they are still prevalent in mid-priced mattresses. Bonnell springs are a knotted, round-top, hourglass-shaped steel wire coil. When laced together with cross wire helicals, these coils form the simplest innerspring unit, also referred to as a Bonnell unit. Steel coils make innerspring mattress construction responsive, but they also don’t offer a whole lot of pressure relief like memory foam does.
 Offset coils are an hourglass type coil on which portions of the top and bottom convolutions have been flattened. In assembling the innerspring unit, these flat segments of wire are hinged together with helical wires. The hinging effect of the unit is designed to conform to body shape. LFK (Left Facing Knot) coils are an offset coil with a cylindrical or columnar shape.
 Marshall coils, also known as wrapped or encased coils or pocket springs, are thin-gauge, barrel-shaped, knotless coils individually encased in fabric pockets—normally a fabric from man-made, non-woven fiber. Some manufacturers pre-compress these coils, which makes the mattress firmer and allows for motion separation between the sides of the bed.  As the springs are not wired together, they work more or less independently: the weight on one spring does not affect its neighbors. This allows them to react to pressure independently instead of all together, which minimizes movement and allows for a more buoyant feel.

History
While coil springs were invented in the 15th century, they were not used in mattresses until the mid-late 19th century, following the use of upholstery coil springs in furniture and carriages.

Microcoils were introduced in the early 21st century, and  are a small part of the market.

The bed coil spring was patented by Louis Andrew Vargha. Some modern feedback on coils within mattresses cast aspersions on
some of its attributes such as abrasion on coils eventually culminating into prodding, and the audibility of the coils, as it may decrease privacy for intimate moments such as sexual activity.

Manufacturers
The mattress coil market is quite concentrated – the leading suppliers are Leggett & Platt (founded 1883) of Carthage, Missouri and  AGRO International (founded 1948) of Bad Essen, Germany. Others include HSM (company) (formally Hickory Springs, founded 1944) of Hickory, North Carolina; Spinks (founded 1840) of Leeds, United Kingdom and Subiñas (founded 1959) of Mungia, Biscay province, Spain.

title: Danny Ortiz (baseball)

text:
Daniel Ortiz (born January 5, 1990) is a Puerto Rican professional baseball outfielder for the Pericos de Puebla of the Mexican League. He has previously played in Major League Baseball (MLB) for the Pittsburgh Pirates.

Career

Minnesota Twins
Ortiz was drafted in the fourth round (126th overall) by the Minnesota Twins in the 2008 MLB draft out of Benjamin Harrison High School in Cayey, Puerto Rico. After signing for $253,000, Ortiz reported to the GCL Twins where batted .274 with two home runs and 27 runs batted in over 48 games. Daniel was forced to miss the 2009 season after undergoing left knee surgery during the offseason. Ortiz did little to change that perception over the next two years, hitting .259 with 11 homers and 43 runs batted in over 62 games with the Elizabethton Twins in 2010 and .239 with 10 homers and 71 runs batted in the following year with the Low-A Beloit Snappers. For the 2012 season, Ortiz began the year back with the Snappers but quickly proved that he was a changed player, hitting .299 with 8 runs and 13 runs batted in through only 22 games and earning himself a spot on the midseason Midwest League all-star team. Ortiz started the month of May with the High-A Fort Myers Miracle. Over the rest of the season, Ortiz continued to hit for both average and power, finishing with a .269 batting average, eight home runs and 35 runs batted in. Ortiz was promoted again to begin the 2013 year, playing for the Double-A New Britain Rock Cats. Ortiz hit a career high 12 home runs to go along with a .258 batting average and 60 runs batted in. In 2014 Ortiz remained with the Rock Cats for 48 games, and he owned a .500 slugging percentage, a .325 batting average, and 31 runs batted in before an early June call up to the Rochester Red Wings. In 55 games since his promotion, Ortiz hit 7 home runs, drove in 29 runs, recorded a slugging percentage of .456, and owned a .257 batting average.

Pittsburgh Pirates
Ortiz signed a minor league contract with the Pittsburgh Pirates on November 20, 2015. He spent the 2016 season in Triple-A with the Indianapolis Indians, batting .236/.275/.415 with 15 home runs and 61 RBI in 110 games. The Pirates promoted him to the major leagues on April 29, 2017. Ortiz appeared in 9 games for Pirates in 2017, notching 1 hit in 12-bats. On August 5, 2017, Ortiz was designated for assignment by the Pirates and sent him outright to Indianapolis on August 7. He elected free agency following the season on November 6.

Philadelphia Phillies
Ortiz signed a minor league contract with the Philadelphia Phillies on January 3, 2018, with an invitation to spring training. He was assigned to AAA Lehigh Valley IronPigs for the 2018 season, after which he became a free agent.

Pericos de Puebla
On February 21, 2019, Ortiz signed with the Pericos de Puebla of the Mexican League. In 2019, he was a mid-season All-Star. Ortiz did not play in a game in 2020 due to the cancellation of the LMB season because of the COVID-19 pandemic.

title: Luca Prina

text:
Luca Prina (born May 11, 1965) is an Italian football coach, last in charge as head coach of Serie C side Pro Patria.

Career
Prina started his career in 2006 as head coach of Serie D amateurs Pro Belvedere Vercelli, obtaining a ninth place by the end of the season. In 2008–09 he guided Serie D club Biellese to promotion (then revoked due to financial issues involving the club). The following season, he took his first professional role as head coach at Lega Pro Seconda Divisione club Canavese.

In April 2011 he took over at another Lega Pro Seconda Divisione club, Virtus Entella. After saving the club from relegation, he guided Virtus Entella to promotion to Lega Pro Prima Divisione in 2011–12.

In 2012–13, Virtus Entella emerged as a promotion outsider, qualifying for the post-season playoffs thanks to an impressive fifth place and then being defeated by Lecce in a two-legged semi-final. This was followed by an even more successful finish in the 2013–14 Lega Pro Prima Divisione, as Virtus Entella managed to top the league for almost the full season and winning promotion to Serie B for its first time ever.

As head coach of a newly promoted Serie B club, Prina was therefore successfully admitted to the yearly UEFA Pro Licence course to be held in Coverciano.

He was removed from head coach on 12 April 2015, after a negative string of results led his club into relegation zone in the Serie B.

title: Delaware Mountains

text:
The Delaware Mountains are a mountain range in the U.S. state of Texas, spanning part of Culberson County. The highest point in the range is the Delaware Benchmark at an elevation of  above sea level. The range extends south-southeast from Guadalupe Pass at the southern extent of the Guadalupe Mountains and Guadalupe Mountains National Park. The range is formed by horizontal layers of limestone, sandstone, and shale that were deposited 250 million years ago during the Permian that now encompass the Delaware Mountain Formation. The range is named for the Lenape, who are also known as the Delaware Indians. The Delaware Mountain Wind Energy Center is a 28.5 megawatt wind farm that was constructed on the northern portion of the range in 1999 and is operated by NextEra Energy Resources.

title: 2003 Spanish regional elections

text:
The 2003 Spanish regional elections were held on Sunday, 25 May 2003, to elect the regional parliaments of thirteen of the seventeen autonomous communities—Aragon, Asturias, the Balearic Islands, the Canary Islands, Cantabria, Castile and León, Castilla–La Mancha, Extremadura, La Rioja, Madrid, Murcia, Navarre and the Valencian Community—, not including Andalusia, the Basque Country, Catalonia and Galicia, which had separate electoral cycles. 792 of 1,186 seats in the regional parliaments were up for election, as well as the 50 seats in the regional assemblies of Ceuta and Melilla. The elections were held simultaneously with local elections all throughout Spain.

Election date
Determination of election day varied depending on the autonomous community, with each one having competency to establish its own regulations. Typically, thirteen out of the seventeen autonomous communities—all but Andalusia, the Basque Country, Catalonia and Galicia—had their elections fixed for the fourth Sunday of May every four years, to be held together with nationwide local elections.

In some cases, regional presidents had the prerogative to dissolve the regional parliament and call for extra elections at a different time, but newly elected assemblies were restricted to serving out what remained of their previous four year-terms without altering the period to their next ordinary election.

Campaign
Parties campaigned for votes in both these elections and the local elections held at the same time. Some key issues that kept coming up for parties were:
 The Prestige oil spill: This occurred in November 2002 and caused an oil spill affecting the coast of Galicia and parts of Cantabria. Parties reported this was affecting voter habits in the north of the country.
 The National Hydrological Plan (Spanish: Plan Hidrológico Nacional): This was a multi-million-euro water management project causing rifts between governments of communities affected, transferring some of the water from the Ebro to the driest areas of Murcia and Valencia. Whilst both of these regions supported the proposal, Aragon and Catalonia did not.
 Terrorism: In 2003 there had been only three deaths from terrorist attacks in Spain, unusually low. However, political discussions between Madrid and the Basque Government did not cease during the previous Parliament. Certain parties accused the PP of using this to their political advantage.

Regional governments
The following table lists party control in autonomous communities. Gains for a party are highlighted in that party's colour.

The Fort Payne Residential Historic District is a historic district in Fort Payne, Alabama.  The district represents both of Fort Payne's major periods of growth: the 1880s and 1890s, fueled by the area's mineral deposits; and the 1910s through the 1930s, bolstered by the development of the hosiery industry.  The area was predominantly middle class, meaning only a few Queen Anne homes were built; most houses from the early period were built in more restrained Vernacular Victorian styles.  Later construction is dominated by American Foursquares and Craftsman Bungalows.  The district was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1988.

title: Erik Angner

text:
Erik Angner is a Swedish-American Author and Professor of Practical Philosophy at Stockholm University. Angner is a moral philosopher whose research and teaching grapple with the classical philosophical question “How should people live?” by exploring issues of well-being, rationality, and social order. His work is thoroughly interdisciplinary, bridging philosophy and economic fields and studying rationality and well-being, particularly in the context of decision theory, behavioral decision research and the relationships between happiness, poverty, and health with ways to quantify happiness.

Education and Academic Career
Angner attended Uppsala University where he received his bachelors in philosophy and mathematics followed by his masters in theoretical philosophy. He then completed two PhDs at the University of Pittsburgh, one in Economics and the other in History and Philosophy of Science.

He taught at the University of Alabama at Birmingham where he was also enlisted as an investigator for the Center for Education and Research on Therapeutics; Associate Scientist for the Minority Health and Research Center; Scientist for the Center for Outcomes and Effectiveness Research and Education; Co-Director for the Regulatory & Research Ethics Component; Director of Interdisciplinary Philosophy and Political Economy;

Angner moved to George Mason University in 2012 where, in addition to being Associate Professor of Philosophy, he worked with the Department of Economics as well as the School of Policy, Government, and International Affairs, before serving as the Director of the Philosophy, Politics, and Economics (PPE) Program.

In 2016, he joined Stockholm University as Professor of Practical Philosophy and Director of the PPE Program as well as researcher for the Institute for Future Studies and TINT Centre of Philosophy and Social Science for the University of Helsinki.

Books
Angner has written a number of papers and book chapters published in journals of philosophy, economics, psychology, medicine, and history of science and is the author of Hayek and Natural Law which seeks to paint Hayek's work as a continuation of the Natural Law tradition. His other book, A Course in Behavioral Economics was hailed as one of the first behavioral economics textbooks  and has been translated in multiple languages.
In 2023 Angner's book, How Economics Can Save the World: Simple Ideas to Solve Our Biggest Problems  was published by Penguin Press.

title: Ricoh GR (large sensor compact camera)

text:
The Ricoh GR is a digital large sensor compact camera announced by Ricoh on April 17, 2013, one of a number of Ricoh GR digital cameras. It was succeeded by the Ricoh GR II in 2015 and the Ricoh GR III in 2019.

Ricoh GR
Unlike its predecessors (the "GR Digital" series), the Ricoh GR incorporated an APS-C image sensor, while retaining a relatively compact form factor. Coupled with its retractable lens, the GR is potentially the slimmest of any camera in its class when powered off. Aside from portability, reviewers praised the GR for its lens quality and ergonomics.

An unusual feature of the Ricoh GR was its built-in ND filter. Its maximum shutter speed was variable, depending on the aperture setting (ie, 1/4000s was only available at apertures smaller than 5.6).

The Ricoh GR series has been compared against the Nikon Coolpix A and the Fujifilm X70, other large sensor compacts with the same fixed focal length (28mm).

Ricoh GR II
DPReview said that over the Ricoh GR, the GR II is "a fairly minor update ... the camera isn't a dramatic update ... the core of the camera remains the same".

New features
802.11/Wi-Fi – to remotely control the camera as well as providing the option to transfer images from the camera to a mobile device or computer
NFC
Maximum shutter speed when shooting at f/2.8 increased by 1/3 EV to 1/2500 s
Can shoot 10 raw frames at its maximum shooting rate of 4 fps (up from 4 raw frames)
Can save either individual raw files or a composite raw file when shot in interval mode
Autofocus during movie shooting
Option to trigger movie shooting across Wi-Fi, using the browser-based GR Remote app
Seven additional effect modes for JPEGs
An extra 'Color Temperature Extension' white balance mode
The internal flash can be used to remotely operate Pentax AF360 and AF540 flashguns as slaves
Tap (half-press) the shutter to enter shooting mode if the camera has been turned on by holding the playback button, which previously required a full press

Ricoh GR III
The Ricoh GR III was announced as "under development" on September 25, 2018, immediately prior to Photokina that year. The camera was released in March 2019.

While the GR II was seen as an incremental upgrade, the GR III was the result of a longer development cycle and boasted more significant changes. Ricoh indicated that several key components, including the sensor and the lens, would be upgraded. The body dimensions would decrease slightly, with the built-in flash removed. As July 30, 2020, a new firmware version was released.

New features
Sensor resolution increased from 16 MP to 24 MP
Redesigned lens (6 elements, 4 groups)
Three-axis sensor-shift image stabilization
Expanded ISO range of 100 to 102,400 (2 stops higher than the GR II's max of 25,600)
More compact design (note: on-board flash removed)
Simulate an anti-aliasing filter (first seen on the Pentax K-3)
Dust reduction system "using ultrasonic vibrations" (named "DR II")
Autofocus upgraded to a hybrid system, with phase detection used in combination with contrast detection
Capacitative touch screen
Minimum focusing distance improved to 6 cm from 10 cm
Video recording frame rate improved to 60 fps at 1080p (Full HD)
USB-C connectivity that can be used to charge the battery

title: Washington, Alabama

text:
Washington is a ghost town located in Autauga County, Alabama on the north bank of the Alabama River, just west of the mouth of Autauga Creek. Washington was founded by European American settlers in 1817 on the site of the former Autauga Indian town of Atagi and named in honor of George Washington. On November 22, 1819, the Alabama territorial legislature chose Washington as the county seat of Autauga County, which it remained until 1830. A courthouse, hotel, jail, post office and pillory were constructed to meet the needs of the county government.

Following growth in population, the county seat was moved to Kingston in 1830 in order to be closer to the geographic center of the jurisdiction. Soon after, many businesses and residents followed county businesses. Washington was deserted by 1879. The post office in Washington was operated from 1824 to 1854.

title: Earthling Society

text:
Earthling Society were an English space/psychedelic rock band formed in Fleetwood, England in January 2004 by vocalist/guitarist Fred Laird and drummer Jon Blacow with bassist, David Fyall.

The band's debut album Albion was self-recorded by the band on its own 8 track studio and Santiago, Chile's  Mylodon Records, were set to release the album in March 2005 before pulling out. When the band was seeking a deal for their next album, Berlin-based Nasoni Records heard Albion and released it on CD and vinyl formats. In August 2005 it was album of the month on Julian Cope's Head Heritage website, Cope stating that "Earthling Society is a 21st century guitar/bass/drums trio from Blackpool, in the north-west of England, that multi-tracks itself in such a manner that its debut album ALBION comes on more like your typical Krautrock commune ensemble (Amon Duul 2, Agitation Free especially) than the Blue Cheer, Grand Funk and High Rise heart attack that the power trio line-up would suggest."

The band added keyboard player Joe Orban to its line up and released a follow-up on Nasoni Plastic Jesus And The Third Eye Blind after supporting Cope on his 2006 "Dark Orgasm" tour. Subsequently Irish keyboard player Kevy Canavan replaced Orban.

During the winter of 2006, Earthing Society began their third studio album, a double LP entitled Tears Of Andromeda, Black Sails Against The Sky. It was released by Nasoni on 20 April 2007 to coincide with the band's debut appearance at the Roadburn Festival, which was broadcast live on several European radio stations. A live track from the performance subsequently appeared on a 2008 compilation album Under The Radar Vol. 4.

In May 2007, Earthling Society released the album Beauty and the Beast on London-based label 4Zero. A departure from the band's earlier space-rock explorations, the album contained 10 much more concise songs and was well received by the underground music press. It was the final album to feature Canavan and Fyall. UK based record distribution company Cargo Records officially released the band’s entire back catalogue in the UK in September 2007 and in August 2008, Orban returned to the group after a long illness. Fyall was also replaced by bassist Steve Roberts for Sci-Fi Hi-Fi (2009), the band's second album for 4Zero.

Earthling Society released a number of selected cover versions of 60's garage rock classics on Fruits de Mer Records compilations and in 2013 the band released the Zodiak album featuring new members Kim Allen (Bass) and Neil Whitehead (electronics).

In September 2014, Riot Season Records released a limited edition of 500 translucent green coloured vinyl LPs by the band: England Have My Bones, featuring a live rendition of Alice Coltrane's "Journey in Satchidananda".

In August 2014, Laird announced that he and Blacow had formed a new rock n roll / rockabilly band, The Crawlin' Hex, with punk/psychobilly singer Dunk Jowitt previously of UFX/Boneyard Zombies, Chad Spandosa (also ex UFX) on bass and son Harry Laird on rhythm guitar. Seven singles and several other releases by The Crawlin' Hex had been made available as online downloads and a 7" single 'I'm a Living Sickness' released by Fruits De Mer Records as part of the 'Postcards from the Deep' box set in 2014 before the band split in 2015. In 2014, Jowitt joined briefly Earthling Society on synthesizers.

The album It's Your Love That's Sound was released as a free download on Valentine's Day 2015.

The album Sweet Chariot was released in April 2016.

Antonio Jesús Regal Angulo (born 11 December 1987), commonly known as Antoñito, is a Spanish professional footballer who plays as either a right-back or a midfielder for Deportivo de La Coruña.

Club career
Born in Herrera, Seville, Antoñito graduated from Polideportivo Ejido's youth academy, and made his senior debut in the 2006–07 season with the reserves, in the Tercera División. On 4 November 2007 he played his first match as a professional, coming on as a second-half substitute in a 4–1 Segunda División away loss against UD Salamanca.

On 26 January 2008, Antoñito was loaned to Segunda División B club UD Melilla until June. After returning to Poli he became a regular for the Andalusians, now in the third division.

Antoñito continued to compete in division three the following years, representing UD Almería B, Écija Balompié and FC Cartagena. On 23 June 2014 he signed a two-year contract with Albacete Balompié, newly promoted to the second tier.

Antoñito scored his first professional goal on 6 February 2016, netting his team's second in a 2–2 home draw against Real Oviedo. On 13 July, after suffering relegation, he joined Córdoba CF of the same league.

On 8 July 2017, Antoñito was transferred to Real Valladolid on a three-year deal. He contributed 38 appearances in his first year – play-offs included – helping to a La Liga promotion after four years.

Antoñito made his debut in the Spanish top flight on 27 September 2018, playing 21 minutes in 2–1 home victory over Levante UD. He scored his first goal on 21 October, at Real Betis (1–0). He appeared in 30 matches during the season in a 16th-place finish, and subsequently agreed to an extension until June 2021.

On 26 September 2020, aged 32, Antoñito joined Super League Greece club Panathinaikos F.C. on a two-year contract. The following 14 January, after failing to make an appearance, he returned to his home country with Cartagena, now in the second division.

On 31 January 2022, after only 53 minutes in four league matches, Antoñito terminated his link at the Estadio Cartagonova.
