title: M1297 Army Ground Mobility Vehicle

text:
The M1297 Army Ground Mobility Vehicle (A-GMV or AGMV), previously just GMV, and formerly called the Ultra Light Combat Vehicle (ULCV), is a U.S. Army airdroppable light off-road vehicle for light infantry brigades. The A-GMV is produced by General Dynamics. The design is closely based on the M1288 GMV 1.1, which is itself based on the Flyer 72.

In March 2015, the Army changed the name of the Ultra Light Combat Vehicle to the Ground Mobility Vehicle. A-GMV is intended to be carried internally in a CH-47 Chinook or externally by a UH-60 Black Hawk. In order to be survivable but transportable, the GMV would be lightly armored and use speed, maneuverability, and off-road mobility to avoid major threats. The A-GMV is configured to carry an airborne infantry combat squad of nine paratroopers, and their gear – a payload capacity of over . The vehicle has an open design, modifiable into flexible configurations, by remote and manned turrets, armor, or arctic kits.

The AGMV was a limited purchase through USSOCOM's GMV 1.1 program. The Infantry Squad Vehicle will be purchased in greater numbers.

Background

A-GMV is meant to be light and fast and deliver soldiers from a drop zone far from enemy air defenses or indirect fire systems. Five vehicles would carry a platoon headquarters, three rifle squads, and a weapons squad. The vehicle is seen as a "21st century jeep" to move troops around during an initial attack faster than the enemy can counter them with heavy weapons. Both the GMV and LRV are to replace sling-loaded Humvees in this role (but not for other units). Interest in the effort is expected on the scale of the U.S. Special Operations Command program to replace the Ground Mobility Vehicle, which also sought to replace a Humvee-based vehicle with a lighter and more air-mobile design. Airborne infantry brigades would use the vehicles to rush forces from their airborne insertion point to seize an objective, which would become a forward airfield for reinforcing and deploying heavier follow-on forces. After follow-on forces arrive and set up positions, the ULCV would not be as useful, but could potentially allow troops to operate for up to a week without support.

Army officials consider the GMV a needed addition to a global response force like the 82nd Airborne Division.  Currently, airdropped infantry would be flown to a target area or driven there by trucks.  Either way, they then need to dismount and walk the distance to their destination, sometimes for many miles while carrying heavy gear.  The GMV would allow light infantry to be driven right to their destination, allowing them to be airdropped further away from potential enemy fire and use mobility to find an off-road avenue of approach an adversary isn't expecting, and not be fatigued once they need to fight.  The idea was to acquire up to 300 vehicles by the end of 2016 at a unit cost of $149,000, which could decrease if a second increment was bought and stationed at installations for training; predicted dates were not certain as the entire effort remains subject to funding availability. Ability to be carried under a UH-60 Black Hawk in high/hot conditions is particularly important because battalion commanders cannot always get control of a CH-47 to carry heavier up-armored Humvees.

History
In January 2014, the Army issued a notice to industry for a commercial-off-the-shelf air-droppable "Ultra Light Combat Vehicle" (ULCV). The information collated was used to examine the benefit of an ULCV to support mobility for Infantry Brigade Combat Team (IBCT) soldiers. The information received was used by the MCOE to screen COTS solutions for a potential follow-on static display and proof of principal event.

A Platform Performance Demonstration (ULCV-PPD) was subsequently held at Fort Bragg in June 2014 to allow potential contractors to demonstrate the capability of their vehicles.

The PPD had vehicles demonstrate a range of threshold requirements including being driven onto and out of a CH-47 with a full nine-man squad and their equipment on board, ability to operate on various forms of terrain, be rigged and de-rigged by two soldiers within two minutes for sling-load operations, and others. Threshold requirements identify the maximum curb weight of the vehicle at 4,500 lb with a range of . Six vendors took part in the technology demonstration and compared their vehicles to the Humvee as part of a global response force mission.

Candidates
The following is a list of vehicles provided at the Platform Performance Demonstration:
 General Dynamics with the M1288 GMV 1.1, A (US)SOCOM vehicle based on the Flyer 72.
 Vyper Adamas, Inc. proposed their V3X Tactical Vehicle.
 Polaris Defense proposed its Deployable Advanced Ground Off-road (DAGOR) vehicle.
 Boeing-MSI Defense with its Phantom Badger
 Hendrick Dynamics with its Commando Jeep.
 Lockheed Martin with its High Versatility Tactical Vehicle.

In March 2015, the Army changed the name of the ULCV to the Ground Mobility Vehicle (GMV). This created confusion, as the name is the same as the USSOCOM Humvee-based Ground Mobility Vehicle, and its replacement, the M1288 GMV 1.1, a vehicle also based on the Flyer 72.

The Army acknowledged General Dynamics' potential advantages because of the SOCOM contract but stated it was considering all options and would not sole-source their award.

In May 2015 the Army issued a ULCV (GMV) market questionnaire. A second RfI was issued in September.

As a "new start" program in its fiscal year (FY) 2017 budget request the Army requested US$4.9 million in FY 2017 for the program. According to the latest program-related documents, the service hopes to find a vehicle that "provides enhanced tactical mobility" for an IBCT infantry squad of nine personnel and their equipment. The vehicle must be capable of moving "quickly around the battlefield, including the ability to execute medium-distance insertion operations," using UH-60 Black Hawk utility helicopters, according to the document.

A-GMV's concept is to provide flexibility for entry operations in permissive and non-permissive environments ‘to counter threat anti-access strategies by using multiple austere entry points via air-drop, air-land, and/or air-insertion to bring in combat configured units." The Army said it plans to develop GMV to fulfil requirements "using a commercial off-the-shelf or non-developmental item vehicle," for which a firm fixed-priced contract is to be awarded through an open competition. FY 2017 funding could be used for a contract award for "GMV test vehicles for destructive testing" and initial production could be considered as soon as the fourth quarter of FY 2017 and full-rate production in the third quarter FY 2019.

The Army never formalized a competitive bid process, but in the interim, opted to purchase a limited number of GMVs through SOCOM's Ground Mobility Vehicle 1.1. In its 2018 budget request, the Army split the GMV into two phases. The second phase, called the Infantry Squad Vehicle program, was initiated to acquire 1700 additional vehicles.

In May 2018, the Army awarded General Dynamics Ordnance and Tactical Systems (GD-OTS) a $33.8 million contract for the production of 118 A-GMVs and associated kits. The vehicles will outfit three airborne brigades.

The A-GMV shares some 90 percent parts commonality with the GMV 1.1.

GD-OTS delivered the first A-GMV to the US Army, marking the First Unit Equipped (FUE), delivered within four months of contract award and consisted of vehicles, spares and training. Estimated completion of the contract is March 2019.

title: Black Peak (Washington)

text:
Black Peak is a tall peak in the Cascade Range in the U.S. state of Washington. It lies in the Stephen Mather Wilderness and North Cascades National Park. At  in elevation it is the 20th-highest peak in Washington. Black Peaks's prominence is , making it the 35th-most prominent peak in Washington. The nearest higher peak is Goode Mountain,  to the west-southwest.

Black Peak is a non-volcanic mountain and is popular among hikers and campers worldwide.

History
The first ascent of this peak was made in 1926 by US Forest Service surveyor, Lage Wernsterdt. He also gave it the name Black Peak. In 1983, there was a proposal to rename the peak "Mount Wernstedt" in his honor, but was later withdrawn.

Geology

The North Cascades features some of the most rugged topography in the Cascade Range with craggy peaks, granite spires, ridges, and deep glacial valleys. Geological events occurring many years ago created the diverse topography and drastic elevation changes over the Cascade Range leading to various climate differences.

The history of the formation of the Cascade Mountains dates back millions of years ago to the late Eocene Epoch. With the North American Plate overriding the Pacific Plate, episodes of volcanic igneous activity persisted. In addition, small fragments of the oceanic and continental lithosphere called terranes created the North Cascades about 50 million years ago.

During the Pleistocene period dating back over two million years ago, glaciation advancing and retreating repeatedly scoured the landscape leaving deposits of rock debris. The "U"-shaped cross section of the river valleys are a result of recent glaciation. Uplift and faulting in combination with glaciation have been the dominant processes which have created the tall peaks and deep valleys of the North Cascades area.

Climate

Most weather fronts originate in the Pacific Ocean, and travel northeast toward the Cascade Mountains. As fronts approach the North Cascades, they are forced upward by the peaks of the Cascade Range, causing them to drop their moisture in the form of rain or snowfall onto the Cascades (Orographic lift). As a result, the west side of the North Cascades experiences higher precipitation than the east side, especially during the winter months in the form of snowfall. During winter months, weather is usually cloudy, but, due to high pressure systems over the Pacific Ocean that intensify during summer months, there is often little or no cloud cover during the summer.

Carlos Terrazas Sánchez (born 9 February 1962) is a Spanish football manager, currently in charge AD Hogar Alcarreño.

His career of over a quarter of a century was spent mostly in Segunda División B, though he also competed in Segunda División with Eibar, Guadalajara and Mirandés.

Football career
Born in Bilbao, Biscay, Terrazas began his managerial career at local CD Santurtzi, and subsequently worked with neighbouring Bilbao Athletic in Segunda División B. After spells with Gimnástica de Torrelavega, Burgos CF, Bilbao Athletic and AD Ceuta, he was appointed at the helm of Segunda División club SD Eibar in June 2005.

title: A. W. Davis

text:
Arvis W. Davis (June 13, 1943 – September 23, 2014) was an American basketball player and coach.  Davis is best known for his All-American college career at the University of Tennessee (UT).  He was known by several nicknames, including the "Rutledge Rifle" and "The Man With the Golden Arm."

Davis, a 6"7' center, came to Tennessee from Rutledge, Tennessee, where he once scored 71 points in a game.  In his three-year college career (freshmen were ineligible at this time), Davis scored 1,255 points (17.3 per game) and 574 rebounds (8.1 per game).  As a senior, Davis averaged 19.6 points and 8.2 points per game and was named a first team All-American by the United States Basketball Writers Association, the first player in program history so honored.  He was also named first-team All-Southeastern Conference and a third team All-American by the Associated Press and United Press International.

Following the close of his college career, Davis was drafted in the fifth round of the 1965 NBA draft (43rd pick overall), but never played in the league.  He began his coaching career in 1966 at McMinn Central High School in Englewood, Tennessee.  In 1969 he was named an assistant at his alma mater, and in 1975 was named head coach at Walters State Community College in Morristown, Tennessee.  He left in 1979 to pursue a business career.  He later spent several years as an announcer for UT games.

Davis is a member of the University of Tennessee athletic Hall of Fame and the Tennessee Sports Hall of Fame.  In 2009, he was named to UT's All-Century team.

Davis died at the age of 71 on September 23, 2014, at the University of Tennessee Medical Center in Knoxville, Tennessee.

title: Sony α5100

text:
The Sony α5100 (model ILCE-5100) is a digital rangefinder-type mirrorless camera announced by Sony on 18 August 2014.

Reception
The camera has been well received because of its performance and its features.

Drawbacks and missing features
One of the main drawbacks is the fake shutter sound that the camera emits when taking a photo, something that many reviewers noted that worsens the experience of taking photos, as the sound cannot be turned off. This fake shutter sound can be clearly heard when shooting at 1/10 s or slower, at faster speeds it is either not emitted or the sound appears to blend in with the mechanical rear curtain shutter sound. This fake shutter sound is probably present in order to indicate to the camera user that the exposure has started, most likely to mimic a mechanical front curtain, as most Sony camera now have electronic front curtains.
Missing from this camera model is a dedicated physical Fn button, standard for most Sony mirrorless cameras.
Also the programmable function menu that can be assigned to one of the programmable buttons, similar to older Sony NEX camera models, is not available.

text:
Sweet Nothings is the seventh studio album by Dog Fashion Disco, released in 2014. Their first album in eight years, it was written and recorded after the band reunited in 2013, following an almost seven-year hiatus. It is the first album with Tim Swanson of Ideamen on keyboard. However, he played with the band on the 2006 tour in support for their previous album, Adultery. Todd Smith said about the new album: "It was a love letter to our fans who missed us and grew up listening to DFD".

Background
The reformation of the band was announced at the 2013 reunion in Baltimore, where Todd announced that the band was to reunite and put out a new album the following year. The band officially reunited on October 10, 2013. The band was still signed to the Rotten Records label, but receiving no financial support from the label, the band  started a fundraising campaign on Indiegogo on February 6, 2014. Asking for $30,000, they reached their goal in under 24 hours, and by the time the fundraiser closed on March 18, 2014, the band had raised $85,122. The album was recorded shortly after, and released on July 22, 2014, through Rotten Records. The album's final, untitled track features Todd Smith thanking everyone who contributed to the Indiegogo campaign by name, as well as promising a follow-up album to be recorded in 2015.

is a Shinto shrine located in the Akebono-chō neighborhood of the city of Tsuruga, Fukui Prefecture, Japan. It is the ichinomiya of former Echizen Province. The main festival of the shrine is held annually on September 4.  The shrine is considered the chief guardian shrine of the Hokuriku region.

Enshrined kami
The kami enshrined at Kehi Jingū are:
, the semi-legendary Prince Tsunuga Arashito, who traveled from his home in Silla to Tsuruga during the reign of Emperor Sujin. According to the Nihon Shoki he had horns coming from his head; the area was named “Tsunuga,” written, literally, “horn-deer,” and over time it became “Tsuruga.”
, the semi-legendary 14th Emperor of Japan
, consort of Emperor Chūai

, the daughter of Empress Jingū
, the 15th Emperor of Japan
, legendary hero-statesman

History
The Kehi Jingū is located in the northeastern part of Tsuruga city in the central part of Fukui prefecture. Tsuruga has a good natural port, and was the gateway between the Kinai region and the Korean Peninsula and Asian continent since ancient times. Because of its location, the shine was given particular importance by the imperial court, and is mentioned frequently in ancient chronicles such as the "Kojiki" and "Nihon Shoki", especially in connection to events connected with the semi-legendary Emperor Chūai, Empress Jingū, and Emperor Ōjin and the Japanese conquest of the Three Kingdoms of Korea. The actual foundation of the shrine predates written history, and its first mention in national chronicles is from around 692 AD during the reign of Empress Jito. During the Heian period, imperial messengers were frequently dispatched to the shrine, and its ranking within the court hierarchy steadily rose, as described in the Shoku Nihon Kōki, Nihon Montoku Tennō Jitsuroku, Nihon Kiryaku and other historical sources. In the 927 Engishiki, it is listed as a myōjin taisha and by the end of the Heian period was the ichinomiya of the province. In the Heian and Kamakura period, the shrine commanded vast estates extending from Echizen to Echigo and Sado Province. The shrine sided with the Southern Court in the Nanboku-chō period, and even after defeat by the Northern Court, still commanded territory with a kokudaka of 240,000 koku. The shrine supported the Asakura clan during the Sengoku period and was thus largely destroyed by the forces of Oda Nobunaga. In the early Edo Period, the shrine's restored with a  very modest 100 koku by Yūki Hideyasu in 1604. It also received donation from Tokugawa Iemitsu and by the various daimyō of Ōno Domain, but never regained its former prosperity. In September of 1689, Kehi Jingu Shrine was visited by the famous poet Matsuo Basho, and his visit is still commemorated with a statue and a stone monument inscribed with his haiku.

During the Meiji period era of State Shinto, the shrine was rated as a under the Modern system of ranked Shinto Shrines

The shrine was mostly destroyed in 1945, during the Bombing of Tsuruga in World War II by American forces, and its National Treasure Honden built in the Edo period by Yūki Hideyasu burned down. One surviving structure is the shrine's 11-meter-tall torii gate, which was built in 1902 and which is registered as a National [Important Cultural Property. It is the third largest wooden torii gate in Japan, alongside Nara’s Kasuga Taisha Shrine and Hiroshima’s Itsukushima Shrine.

The shrine is located a 15-minute walk from Tsuruga Stationon the JR West Hokuriku Main Line.

title: Gibbsville (TV series)

text:
Gibbsville is a 1976 American dramatic television series starring John Savage and Gig Young. The plot centers on the activities of two reporters for a newspaper in a small Pennsylvania town in the 1940s. It aired from November 11 to December 30, 1976 on NBC.

Cast

 John Savage as Jim Malloy
 Gig Young as Ray Whitehead
 Biff McGuire as Dr. Mike Malloy
 Peggy McCay as Mrs. Malloy
 Bert Remsen as Mr. Pell

Synopsis

In the 1940s, Jim Malloy returns to his hometown, the fictional small mining town of Gibbsville, Pennsylvania, after being expelled from Yale University during his sophomore year. He becomes a young cub reporter for the towns newspaper, the Gibbsville Courier. He works there with a senior reporter, Ray Whitehead, who had begun his career in journalism with the Courier and left Gibbsville to pursue a promising career with more prestigious newspapers in larger cities. However, alcoholism had made Rays career falter, and he had returned to Gibbsville and the Courier to try to make a fresh start. Mr. Pell is the editor of the Courier and is Jims and Rays boss.

Jim lives in Gibbsville with his parents, Dr. Mike Malloy and Mrs. Malloy. Dr. Malloy is the towns physician.

Production

David Gerber was Gibbsvilles executive producer. The stories and characters in the show were based on the writings of John O'Hara about the fictional Gibbsville (itself based closely on the real-life town of Pottsville, Pennsylvania), and the opening credits refer to the show  as "John OHaras Gibbsville."

In addition to a 1975 television movie written and directed by playwright Frank D. Gilroy that served as the shows pilot, thirteen episodes were produced, although only six of them aired.

Broadcast history

A 90-minute television movie, John OHaras Gibbsville – later retitled The Turning Point of Jim Malloy and alternatively titled Gibbsville: The Turning Point of Jim Malloy – aired on NBC on April 12, 1975. Based on the John O'Hara semi-autobiographical story anthology The Doctors Son, it served as the pilot for Gibbsville. Several delays followed in getting the weekly series on the air. Gibbsville finally was to have premiered at the beginning of NBCs fall 1976 season, but it encountered one last delay when it was displaced at the last minute. After the cancellation of the series Gemini Man, NBC reshuffled its Thursday evening lineup and added Gibbsville to the schedule in mid-November 1976.

Gibbsville finally premiered as a weekly series on November 11, 1976 – 17 months after its pilot aired – and NBC broadcast it at 10:00 p.m. on Thursdays throughout its brief run. Its sixth episode was broadcast on December 30, 1976, after which NBC cancelled it. The remaining seven episodes never aired.

title: Handalan-class missile boat

text:
The Handalan class are domestically modified Spica-M fast attack craft, a heavier variant of the . Built by Kalskrona Varvet and ordered in 1976, this class replaced the Perkasa-class squadron on a 1:1 basis, including name transfer.

Development

The Handalans are equipped with longer-range diesel engines and an additional weapons fit with launchers for Exocet MM38 missiles and a secondary Bofors 40 mm gun. The installation of additional weaponry from the main Bofors 57 mm gun forced the bridge to be pushed forward to accept the missile launchers and additional rear gun.  With a data-link communications system, the class allows the exchange of information through computers with similar equipment, both other ships and shore-based stations. They also have elaborate countermeasures with a Thales DR3000S, electronic tracking equipment and weapon control systems.  In all, the Handalans are more capable and better armed than the larger Perdana-class missile boat of the Royal Malaysian Navy. In late 2020 Royal Malaysian Navy confirmed that this class of ship will be upgrade to lengthening service period of older ships.

title: Sunshine list

text:
A sunshine list is a listing of salary, benefit and severance information. Its colloquial name refers to the goal of illuminating government expenditures. In Canada, the list is commonly used for example by provincial or municipal governments to identify any publicly employed person making $100,000 salary or higher. The purpose of the list is to provide accountability and transparency. For example, the province of Ontario requires "organizations that receive public funding from the Province of Ontario to disclose annually the names, positions, salaries and total taxable benefits of employees paid $100,000 or more in a calendar year."

History

Alberta
Alberta first started publishing a sunshine list in 2014 following the 2012 election of Alison Redford. The introduction of the list followed public debate about the severance awarded to Redford's former chief of staff. In Alberta, the policy applies to deputy ministers, senior officials, political staff appointed under the Executive Assistant Order and employees defined under the Public Service Act who work for the offices of ministers and associate ministers, and who made an annual base salary of at least $100,000. The government began disclosing base salaries, benefit and severance amounts, and details of contract and termination agreements beginning on 31 January 2014. Information was to be posted online twice annually no later than 30 June (salaries and severances) and 31 December (severances in the latter half of the year) and included all staff employed as of 23 April 2012. As of 2022, public sector bodies' employees are listed at salaries above $141,183, as Alberta indexes against inflation.

Nova Scotia
The government of Halifax has released a sunshine list annually since 2016.

Ontario
Ontario introduced the sunshine list in 1996 under the Mike Harris government.

Uses
While intended as an accountability tool, the lists have been used for other purposes. Maclean's magazine, for example, has used the list to examine employment equity in academia.

Flaw
In 2011, Chris Mazza, President and CEO of Ornge, managed to stay off the sunshine list while making $1.4 million per year in a controversial scandal.

Criticisms
A concern of the sunshine list is its lack of anonymity. The inclusion of full names can pose as a danger to privacy. Another criticism is its lack of indexing to inflation. Local sunshine lists continue to get longer every year.

title: Mr. Marmalade

text:
Mr. Marmalade is a black comedy play written by Noah Haidle. It follows Lucy, a four-year-old girl in New Jersey and how she views adult life. It premiered in Costa Mesa, California, on April 25, 2004, by South Coast Repertory and starred Eliza Pryor Nagel as Lucy, Glen Fleshier as Mr. Marmalade, Guilford Adams as Larry and Marc Vietor as Bradley.

Plot
The play is set in the living room in New Jersey

One Of the strained relationship of Lucy and her imaginary friend Mr Marmalade

The play begins with Lucy, a four-year-old girl, sitting by herself in the living room, playing with a Ken and Barbie. Mr Marmalade appears and the two begin to play tea. Mr Marmalade asks Lucy if she's angry with him, who says she just wishes he wasn't too busy. Sookie, Lucy's mother, interrupts the tea party and asks Lucy which dress she should wear. Mr Marmalade, who Sookie cannot see, suggests the red one. Sookie leaves and Mr M and Lucy return to their conversation. Mr M tells Lucy he will take her to Mexico, to Cabo San Lucas. Their happiness is put at an end when Mr Marmalade is sent back to the office, leaving Lucy alone again. Sookie then re-enters and tells Lucy that the babysitter, Emily, will be there in half an hour. Sookie then leaves, leaving Lucy alone once more.

Two Of the conversation between Lucy and Emily the Babysitter, during which they talk about Mr Marmalade and his delinquent behavior and how men are like that in general unless you keep them in line

The scene opens with Emily watching TV while Lucy is "on the phone" with Mr. Marmalade. Emily also pretends to call Mr. Marmalade, angering Lucy. Lucy then demands that she wants to have a tea party. Emily reluctantly agrees and they have a tea party together, but Emily cuts it short to smoke a cigarette. She leaves and Bradley, Mr. Marmalade's assistant, enters much to Lucy's excitement and enthusiastically joins the tea party. Lucy asks why he is wearing sunglasses indoors at night, but Bradley evades the question. She also asks if there has been any more word about Mexico, but Bradley hasn't heard anything, citing that Mr. Marmalade is busy. Before Bradley can leave, Lucy pulls of his glasses to reveal a black eye. He initially claims that it was an accident, but then admits that he received it for forgetting Mr. Marmalade's dry cleaning.

He leaves and Emily returns. Emily's boyfriend, George arrives despite Lucy's claim that he is not allowed. George brings his step-brother, Larry, with him, and goes upstairs with Emily, apparently to have sex. Lucy and Larry talk to each other about their lives. Larry reveals that he has to repeat preschool, claiming that he didn't have enough friends. He quickly admits that the real reason was due to petty theft and a suicide attempt. Lucy offers to play doctor and asks him to take his shirt off. She pretends to replace his heart, but then asks him to take his pants off. Larry eventually agrees and after she inspects him, they switch roles. Lucy ends the scene pretending to be in pain saying, "you'll have to inspect me from head to toe."

title: Nygård Church

text:
Nygård Church () is a parish church of the Church of Norway in Bergen Municipality in Vestland county, Norway. It is located in the Gravdal neighborhood in the city of Bergen. It is the church for the Nygård parish which is part of the Bergen domprosti (arch-deanery) in the Diocese of Bjørgvin. The white, brick church was built in a fan-shaped design in 1972 using plans drawn up by the architect Arvid Jacobson from the firm of Einar Vaardal-Lunde. The church seats about 520 people.

History
A new cemetery at Nygård in the Gravdal neighborhood in Bergen was inaugurated in December 1876. Immediately after World War II, planning for a church at the cemetery site began. The parish hired Einar Vaardal-Lunde in 1954 to design the new church. However, the economy put an end to these plans for some time. People continued to push for a new church in Nygård, so in 1962, approval was given for the new church. In 1967, the neighboring plot of land next to the cemetery was purchased. The designs for the church made by the Vaardal-Lunde company from the 1950s were used. The foundation stone was laid on 29 November 1970 and the church was consecrated on 8 October 1972. On 1 January 1973, Nygård became a separate parish.

History
Per Japanese mythology as outlined in the Kojiki and Nihon Shoki, the Japanese archipelago (starting with Awaji Island), the kami, and all living things were created by the progenitor gods Izanagi and Izanami. After this work was completed, Izanagi retired into seclusion on Awaji Island where his tomb was located on the site of his palace. The documentary history, mention of a shrine to Izanagi in Awaji is made in an entry in the Nihon Shoki under the reigns of Emperor Richu and Emperor Ingyō and the shrine appears in the Nihon Sandai Jitsuroku in an entry dated 859.  In the 927 Engishiki, it is listed a Myōjin Taisha, and as the ichinomiya of the province. According to the records of nearby Myokyo-ji, Tamura Nakazane, a descendant of Sakanoue no Tamuramaro, rebuilt the shrine in 1280. The Tamura clan served as hereditary kannushi and as local feudal lords into the Sengoku period. In 1581, Oda Nobunaga ordered Tamura Tsuneharu to take the lead in a battle against Takeda Katsuyori, but he was defeated and the Tamura clan were destroyed. During the Edo period, the shrine was supported by the Hachitsuka clan, daimyō of Tokushima Domain. During the Meiji period era of State Shinto, the shrine was designated as a  in 1871 under the Modern system of ranked Shinto Shrines. It was promoted to an  in 1885.

In 1932, Izanami was added to the roster of the shrine, which in 1954 was renamed from Izanagi Jinja to Izanagi Jingū.

The Honden is a three-bay Nagare-zukuri-style building connected to the Heiden by a roof. It was built on the site of the alleged tomb of Izanagi in 1882. The site had previously been a "forbidden land" upon which trespass was strictly forbidden for centuries. The Zuishin-mon on the approach to the shrine was completed in 1883.  The Kamiike pond in the precincts is said to be the remains of a moat which once surrounded the ruins of Izanagi's palace and tomb.

title: Olsvik Church

text:
Olsvik Church () is a parish church of the Church of Norway in Bergen Municipality in Vestland county, Norway. It is located in the Olsvik neighborhood in the city of Bergen. It is the church for the Olsvik parish which is part of the Bergen domprosti (arch-deanery) in the Diocese of Bjørgvin. The white, concrete church was built in a rectangular design in 1990 using plans drawn up by the architect Aksel Fronth. The church seats about 500 people.

History
In 1982, the new parish of Olsvik was separated from the Loddefjord parish. Planning for a new church began soon after. Aksel Fronth was hired to design the new building and land was acquired. The original plot of land that was chosen, however, was not able to be used after a court ruled that a church could not be built there. Then in 1986, a new plot of land was chosen. Construction began in 1989. The new church was designed so that the nave is on the main floor and the lower floor contains other rooms including meeting rooms, kitchens, and bathrooms. The church was consecrated on 11 November 1990.

title: Huracan (Belantis)

text:
Huracan is a steel roller coaster at Belantis amusement park in Leipzig, Germany. Huracan is one of two Gerstlauer Euro-Fighter model roller coasters in Germany, the other being Fluch von Novgorod.

History
Huracan was originally intended to be delivered to the proposed F1-X Dubai amusement park in Dubai, but the Financial crisis of 2007–08 and the Great Recession led to the cancellation of the coaster's installation in Dubai. Instead, the coaster was acquired by Belantis amusement park for €5,000,000 and the coaster was opened on 26 June 2010. Nikolaus Job, the CEO of Belantis has stated he expected the installation of Huracan would lead to a 10 to 15 percent growth in visitor volume.

The installation of Huracan has also led to other rides at Belantis being themed to match Huracan. For example, a kiddie coaster—and one of the smallest kiddie coasters in the world—was built to match Huracan. This coaster was built in 2014, is only  in length, and is named Huracanito.

Layout and theme
As with all Euro-Fighters, Huracan's most noteworthy feature is its steeper-than-vertical first hill, which falls at an angle of 97 degrees. The coaster has a total of five inversions, including a cobra roll, zero-g roll, and interlocking corkscrews. Although the coaster has a Mayan theme to it, the coaster structure's red paint job reflects its former destination at a Formula One-themed amusement park. The coaster is unusual for a Euro-Fighter in that its cars have three rows of two seats per car, instead of the more traditional two rows of four seats per car.

title: Public Square Historic District (Scottsboro, Alabama)

text:
The Public Square Historic District is a historic district in Scottsboro, Alabama.  Although Scottsboro had been the county seat of Jackson County since 1870, the town's earliest commercial development was centered on the Memphis and Charleston Railroad line, one block north of the square.  After an 1881 fire along the rail line, some businesses began to rebuild around the square.  Once the Tennessee Valley Authority brought prosperity to the region in the 1930s, development around the courthouse began to accelerate.  The current Jackson County Courthouse was built in 1912 with matching Classical Revival porticos on two sides.  Commercial buildings around the square are one or two stories and all of brick.  While most are built in simple, lightly decorated commercial styles, some late 19th-century buildings have Victorian detailing.  The district was listed on the Alabama Register of Landmarks and Heritage in 1981 and the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.

title: Haywood Gilliam

text:
Haywood Stirling Gilliam Jr. (born October 13, 1969) is a United States district judge of the United States District Court for the Northern District of California.

Biography

Gilliam was born in 1969, in Marlborough, Massachusetts. He graduated from Yale University in 1991 with a Bachelor of Arts magna cum laude. He then received a Juris Doctor from Stanford Law School in 1994, where he was an articles editor of the Stanford Law Review.

He served as a law clerk to Judge Thelton Henderson of the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, from 1994 to 1995. He worked at the law firm of McCutchen, Doyle, Brown & Enersen from 1995 to 1998. He served as an assistant United States attorney in the Northern District of California, from 1999 to 2006, serving as Chief of the Securities Fraud Section, from 2004 to 2006. He was a partner at the law firm of Bingham McCutchen, from 2006 to 2009. From 2009 to 2014, he was a partner at Covington & Burling, where he served as the vice-chair of the firm's White Collar Defense and Investigations practice group.

Federal judicial service

On September 8, 2014, President Barack Obama nominated Gilliam to serve as a United States District Judge of the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, to the seat vacated by Judge Claudia Ann Wilken, who assumed senior status in December 2014. He received a hearing  before the United States Senate Committee on the Judiciary on September 17, 2014. On November 20, 2014 his nomination was reported out of committee by voice vote. On December 13, 2014 Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid filed a motion to invoke cloture on the nomination. On December 16, 2014, Reid withdrew his cloture motion on Gilliam Jr.'s nomination, and the Senate proceeded to vote to confirm Gilliam Jr. by a voice vote. He received his judicial commission on December 19, 2014.

Border wall ruling

On May 24, 2019, Gilliam granted a preliminary injunction preventing the Trump administration from redirecting funds under the national emergency declaration issued earlier in the year to fund a planned wall along the border with Mexico. The injunction applies specifically to some of the money the administration intended to allocate from other agencies, and limits wall construction projects in El Paso, Texas and Yuma, Arizona.  A judge on the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, Trevor McFadden, issued an opinion a week later in a similar case that disagreed with Judge Gilliam's conclusions on standing. On June 28, 2019, Judge Gilliam granted a permanent injunction. On July 26, 2019, the United States Supreme Court, in the case Trump v. Sierra Club, No. 19A60, in a 5-to-4 ruling, overturned an appellate decision which had refused to stay Judge Gilliam's May 23, 2019 injunction, and said that the administration could spend the money while litigation over the matter proceeds.
