From 2011 to 2013 she was the spokesperson of the Federation of Young European Greens.

Early life and education
Reintke was born and raised in Gelsenkirchen. She studied political science at the Otto-Suhr-Institut of the Free University of Berlin, where her thesis was on "Local NGOs and sexualised violence in the Balkan conflicts". She also worked as a legislative advisor at the Bundestag for representative .

Political career
Reintke was a member of the executive board of German Green Youth from 2008 to 2009, and from 2011 to 2013 was the spokesperson of the Federation of Young European Greens.

Elected to the European Parliament in the 2014 European election, Reintke served as member of the Committee on Women's Rights and Gender Equality, the Committee on Employment and Social Affairs and the Committee on Regional Development during her first term. In 2019, she moved to the Committee on Civil Liberties, Justice and Home Affairs. In this capacity, she is her parliamentary group’s shadow rapporteur on Poland.

In addition to her committee assignments, Reintke co-chair of the European Parliament Intergroup on LGBT Rights. She is also a member of the European Parliament Intergroup on Anti-Corruption and the European Parliament Intergroup on Trade Unions.

Following the 2019 elections, Reintke was part of a cross-party working group in charge of drafting the European Parliament's work program on rule of law, borders and migration.

Controversy
In 2014, Reintke reported on her first week as a Member of the European Parliament in a widely discussed YouTube video with fellow Green representatives Jan Philipp Albrecht and Ska Keller, which led to criticism of her ability to work with opponents.

Along with Volker Beck, Felix Banaszak and Max Lucks, Reintke was temporarily detained when Beck wanted to speak publicly at Istanbul Pride in June 2016.

title: Breed method

text:
Breed method is a laboratory technique used for counting microorganisms in milk. It was introduced in 1910 by American biologists Samuel Cate Prescott and Robert Stanley Breed.

Purpose
It is a method for somatic cell count, to know the number of living and dead microorganisms. When the method only recounts living organisms is called "viable count".

There are many methods for the quantification of microorganisms, including microscopy methods, Coulter counter, Mass Spectrometry (for estimating cell mass), and Cell Culture methods which form and grow colonies of bacteria.

The existing security in dairy products is given by the microbiological quality of the same, which ensures consumption from the point of view of health.

The analysis of the quality of raw milk is a common practice in the dairy industry and aims to control the quality of the samples and the material introduced into the processing plant, culminating in a mass-consumption to ensure quality standards.

Sample preparation
It is important first, to homogenize milk, heating it in a water bath at 40 °C for somatic cells that float to the surface along with the fat. The laboratory apparatus must be clean but not necessarily sterile, since the method is based on cell count and asepsis is not accurate. If later it is going to make detailed microbiological analyzes on the same sample,  then it is necessary to be obtained and manipulated with sterile material.

After this process, the sample is transported to the laboratory in a 4 °C conservative container. It can be preserved in these conditions for 24 hours.

For sampling there are two basic conditions to consider:

The first one is to represent the total volume of milk from which it was removed, and the second condition involves to be stored and transported at the correct temperature so that they see their unmodified source properties, prior to analysis in the laboratory. In case of delay in completion of the analysis a preservative that not alter the subsequent analytical result should be added to the milk.

Application of the technique
Be made extended and 0.01 mL of 1 cm2 on fat-free slides (which are cleaned with xylene).

After allowing to dry, it is colored and performs counting. For this, the average of existing cells is performed in the field of the microscope, dividing total somatic cells from microscopic factor (MF) which corresponds to the number of fields in one inch, i.e. 100 mm, obtaining in this way the number of somatic cells per milliliter of milk.

title: Public Account (India)

text:
The Public Account of India was constituted by Article 266(2) of the Indian Constitution which states that "All other public moneys received by or on behalf of the Government of India or the Government of a State shall be credited to the public account of India or the public account of the State, as the case may be." Here "other" signifies other than the Consolidated Fund of India.

It deals with the money received by the Indian Government, i.e. state provident funds, various pre-deposits under national small savings fund, depreciation and reserve funds of departmental undertakings, national defense fund, etc. are paid into public accounts. These funds do not belong to the government, they have to be paid back at some time to their rightful owners. The government is merely acting as a banker in the transactions of public account.

Because of this nature of the fund, expenditures from it are not required to be approved by the Indian Parliament.

The Public Account of India is divided under 5 heads. These are :1.Small Savings, provident fund and other account.2.Reserve  Funds,3.Deposit and Advances,4.Supreme and miscellaneous and 5. Remittances

title: Xu Lin (Hanban)

text:
Xu Lin (born September 1954) is a Chinese vice-minister-level official serving on the State Council. She has held the post of Chief Executive and Director of the Confucius Institutes worldwide since 2004. She is Director General of the Hanban, or Chinese National Office for Teaching Chinese as a Foreign Language.

Xu Lin was born in Shanxi province. She is a graduate of Fudan University in Shanghai with a degree in Chemistry and has a master's degree in Economics from Beijing Normal University. As a young woman during the Cultural Revolution, she was a worker at the Changzhi Bicycle Factory () in Shanxi. According to her resume, she then worked as a lecturer in the Chemistry Department at Shanxi University, staff at the Higher Education Bureau of Shanxi, and choreographer at the Central Educational Film Studio. Subsequently, she worked in the Finance Department of the Ministry of Education of the People's Republic of China. During this time she also held the post of Assistant Mayor of Xuchang, Henan province (October 1991-September 1993) and then Director of the Foreign Loans Office of the Ministry of Education. In 2000 Xu Lin became the Education Counsellor at the Chinese Consulate in Vancouver, Canada. She returned to China in 2004 and took her current post as head of Hanban, or the Chinese National Office for Teaching Chinese as a Foreign Language.

She has received honorary degrees from the University of Arizona, the University of Antananarivo in Madagascar, the University of Edinburgh, Middle Tennessee State University, Western Kentucky University, J.F. Oberlin University in Japan, Chulalongkorn University in Thailand, Belarusian State University in Minsk, Belarus, and Veliko Tarnovo University in Bulgaria.

Xu Lin serves as a member of the 12th Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference.

Braga incident

Xu Lin instigated an international incident on 23 July 2014 when she ordered pages of a program of the European Association of Chinese Studies (EACS) conference at the University of Minho torn out in order to remove any reference to Taiwanese institutions. The reason for the censorship was apparently concern that the publicity for independent Taiwan institutions would cast doubt on China's claim to Taiwan. Roger Greatrex, President of the EACS, subsequently issued a report on the deletion of pages from conference materials and a wrote public letter of protest against Hanban's interference. The report detailed the timeline of events concerning Xu Lin's censorship.

The night before the conference began, Xu ordered that pages in the program to which she objected be torn out of the conference abstract and program. Specifically, she objected to the listing of the Chiang Ching-kuo Foundation for International Scholarly Exchange, a Taiwanese organization, which had been a sponsor of the conference for two decades. Sun Lam, conference co-organizer at the University of Minho and director of the Confucius Institute there, had also applied for funding from the Confucius China Studies Program (CCSP), which is administered by the Confucius Institute, and had received €28,040.

The money from the CCSP included the €7,000 cost for printing 400 copies of the conference abstracts; it did not include the cost of printing the conference program, which was paid for by EACS members. The CCSP international conference funding application states, "The conference is regulated by the laws and decrees of both China and the host country, and will not carry out any activities which are deemed to be adverse to the social order." Dr. Lam submitted a draft copy of the program to the CCSP for approval on 4 July 2014, and was told that it looked "splendid" (piàoliang 漂亮).

Conference registration began on 22 July 2014, and about 100 participants received complete copies of the abstracts and program, which comprised 89 pages plus cover and front matter, printed double-sided on 48 pages. However, after Xu Lin arrived that evening, she "issued a mandatory request that mention of the CCSP sponsorship be removed from the Conference Abstracts", and ordered her entourage from Confucius Institute Headquarters to remove all conference materials and take them to the apartment of a local Confucius Institute employee. When the remaining 300 participants arrived for conference registration on 23 July, they did not receive the printed abstracts or programs but only a brief summarized schedule. After last-minute negotiations between Xu Lin and conference organizers to ensure conference members received the program, a compromise was made to allow the removal of one abstract page that mentioned the CCSP support of the conference.

On the morning of 24 July, the remaining 300 conference participants received their materials, which were now missing four printed pages: the frontispiece mentioning CCSP sponsorship in the conference abstract, and three pages from the conference program. These expurgated pages contained information regarding:
Hanban's Confucius China Studies Program, and recommended restaurants in Braga (15/16)
the book exhibition and library donation organized by the Taiwan National Central Library as well as other publishers exhibiting books, and Dr. Sun Lam and Ambassador Joao de Deus Ramos, the keynote speaker (19/20, not removed from some copies)
self-presentation by the Taiwanese Chiang Ching-kuo Foundation for International Scholarly Exchange, which has sponsored EACS conference for over twenty years, and conference activities (59/60).

When Roger Greatrex, president of the EACS, learned of this censorship, he ordered that 500 copies of the original program immediately be printed and distributed to participants. He later wrote, "The seizure of the materials in such an unauthorized manner, after the conference had already begun, was extremely injudicious, and has promoted a negative view of the Confucius Institute Headquarters". The EACS letter of protest said this had been "the first occasion in the history of the EACS that its conference materials have been censored." It concluded, "Such interference in the internal organization of the international conference of an independent and democratically organized non-profitable academic organization is totally unacceptable."

Tseng Shu-hsien (), director-general of the National Central Library, stated that EACS officials and members had spoken out against Xu during the opening ceremony.

The Inside Higher Ed quoted Marshall Sahlins, professor emeritus at the University of Chicago and a leading critic of the Confucius Institutes, who said that this incident highlighted the Confucius Institutes provision that programming they fund must abide by Chinese laws, including those restricting speech; "Moreover they're going to enforce them the way they do in China, which is not so much by going to court... but simply by fiat." Taiwan's cabinet-level Mainland Affairs Council issued a reproach over the censorship incident, saying, "The mainland should deal with Taiwan's participation in activities on international occasions pragmatically. If there is no respect for each other, the development of cross-strait relations will be seriously hurt."

Marshall Sahlins said the EACS censorship brings to light the CI's seriousness in enforcing its contractual provisions, and moreover, "they're going to enforce them the way they do in China which is not so much by going to court ... but simply by fiat".

The Wall Street Journal suggests that this EACS report about the Confucius Institute's "bullying approach to academic freedom" should be a summer reading program for the president of every American university that hosts a CI. The Asahi Shimbun said international scholars were in a "snit" over Xu Lin's attempted censorship, and The Christian Science Monitor reported that the censorship has made more academics in the US, UK, Canada, and Australia grow uneasy with Confucius Institutes.

University of Chicago CI closure
On 25 September 2014, the University of Chicago stated that it had suspended negotiations to renew its CI contract because "recently published comments about UChicago in an article about the director-general of Hanban are incompatible with a continued equal partnership." This apparently referred to Xu Lin's interview with the Jiefang Daily, the official newspaper of the Communist Party in Shanghai, published on 19 September 2014, in which Xu Lin, director of the Hanban, was reported to have intimidated the president of the University of Chicago "with a single sentence" after 100 professors signed a petition to ban the Confucius Institute.
许琳直接一封信写给芝加哥大学校长、一个电话打给其驻京代表，只有一句话，"只要你们学校做决定退出，我就同意"。她的态度，让对方着了急，很快答复，校方决定继续办好孔子学院。[Xu Lin immediately sent a letter to the president of the University of Chicago, and made one phone call to its representative in Beijing. She said only one sentence: "The moment your school decides to withdraw, I will agree." Her attitude made the other side nervous, and the school quickly responded that they decided to continue to run the CI properly.]

Compare these two published translations:
Xu Lin wrote a letter to Chicago's president and called the university representative in Beijing (where Chicago has a research center), "with only one line: 'If your school decides to withdraw, I will agree to it.' Her attitude made the other side anxious. The school quickly responded that it will continue to properly manage the Confucius Institute." (Inside Higher Ed)
[Xu Lin] sent a letter to the university president saying, "If you want to end the relationship, it's fine with us." That, the article said, "brought panic to the other side, and a quick decision that the university would continue with its Confucius Institute". This demeaning depiction of the university convinced it that an equal partnership was impossible. (China Post)

And these three paraphrases:
"[Xu Lin] had told the university essentially to quit the partnership if it wanted, which could be construed as a boastful challenge. (The Economist)
The school said in a statement Thursday that suspension of talks to renew a contract with its Confucius Institute was made in response to recent comments in a Chinese-language newspaper that implied the school had kowtowed to the Chinese government. (The Wall Street Journal)
According to [the Jiefang Daily] story, University of Chicago administrators became "anxious" at the thought of shutting down the Confucius Institutes and reassured Xu that they wanted to keep it open. (The Diplomat)

In response to the University of Chicago CI closure, the official Chinese People's Daily published "Rejecting Confucius Institutes not helpful to understand China" on 28 September 2014, but with two factual errors. First, closing the Confucius Institute does not mean "Chinese language study in the university would cease soon"; it means the university's Center for East Asian Studies will resume teaching Chinese. Second, without reference either to UChicago's statement, which specifically blamed Xu Lin's remarks, nor to the widespread media coverage of her Jiefang Daily interview, People's Daily said, "Though the university did not detail the reasons behind the suspension, many believed it was linked to the American Association of University Professors' boycott of CI."

Commenting on the "sinister" EACS/Braga incident as well, Gary Rawnsley, a British professor and expert on international diplomacy and communication, wrote, "Xu Lin could not have picked a worse time "to assert her imaginary authority". The Australian Business Spectator, describing the EACS incident as "highly damaging" for China's international image, wrote, "Xu's hardline behaviour highlights one of the biggest problems for Beijing's charm offensive. It still relies on officials like Xu, who still think and act like party ideologues who like to assert their authority and bully people into submission...Xu Lin... has been a publicity disaster."

In December 2014, the BBC interviewed Xu Lin in Beijing. When the interviewer brought up the Braga incident, Xu Lin objected and later asked for large portions of the interview to be deleted. One of the points she made in the interview is that Taiwan belongs to China, and therefore outsiders have no business interfering. The BBC did not agree to the censorship demand. "Xu Lin not only refused to answer difficult questions, she also politicised the Confucius Institutes and reinforced the idea that they are led by dogmatists," commented Gary Rawnsley, professor of Public Diplomacy at Aberystwyth University, Wales.
The Wall Street Journal reported on Xu's BBC interview, and said, "Critics have argued that China's Confucius Institutes pose a threat to academic freedom in the United States, Canada, Europe and beyond. Now the Beijing official in charge of them has confirmed it."

title: Hermann Franz

text:
Hermann Franz (16 August 1891 – 18 February 1969) was a high-ranking commander in the police of Nazi Germany. He was the commander of the Police Regiment South, which perpetrated mass murder in the Holocaust in the Army Group South Rear Area. In 1942 he became commander of the 18th Mountain Police Regiment. Subsequently, Franz served as commander of the Ordnungspolizei in Greece and then became Higher SS and Police Leader Greece (Höherer SS- und Polizeiführer Griechenland) in autumn 1944, then commander of the Ordnungspolizei in Norway.

Police and SS career
Franz left the army in 1920. He entered the Saxon state police force and was assigned to an officer course in Dresden. He worked as a policeman in the cities of Plauen and Zwickau and worked as an instructor in a police school. Franz joined the Nazi Party in December 1931 (Membership no. 824526). From 1933 to 1938 he was chief of police in Plauen.

At the beginning of World War II he was part of German occupation of Poland for a short time from September 1939 to October 1939 as Commander of the Order Police at Army Headquarters 8th. In August 1940, he joined the SS in (SS-Nr. 361279).  In September 1944 he was promoted Generalmajor der Polizei, and hence gained in October 1944 the rank of SS-Obersturmbannführer

The Holocaust in Ukraine
Just prior to Operation Barbarossa, the invasion of the Soviet Union, Franz was appointed commander of Police Regiment South. It was formed in June 1941 by combining Order Police Battalions 45, 303, and 314. The regiment was subordinated to Friedrich Jeckeln, the Higher SS and Police Leader (HSS-PF) for Army Group South in Ukraine.

The regiment began executing Jewish women and children in July 1941. On 22 July, Police Battalion 314 killed 214 Jews in a settlement near Kovel, including entire families. Police Regiment 45 murdered the entire Jewish population of Shepetovka while stationed there between 26 July and 1 August. The orders came down from Franz, who had referred to an order from Heinrich Himmler.

During August, the regiment murdered Jews in Slavuta, Kowel and other areas, often killing hundreds of victims per battalion per day. On 25 August, it murdered 1,153 Jews, while on 27 August, it killed 914. Later that month, the regiment perpetrated the Kamianets-Podilskyi massacre, alongside Jeckeln's staff company. The staff company did the shooting, while Police Battalion 320 cordoned off the area. The massacres resulted in the murder of thousands of Jews deported from Hungary and rounded up Ukrainian Jews. Shortly thereafter, Police Battalion 320 reported the shooting of twenty-two hundred Jews at another location north-east of Kamianets-Podilskyi. The overall Einsatzgruppen report for the operation listed 23,000 victims.

In September, Police Battalion 45 participated in the murder of Jews in Berdichev, cordoning off the execution site and leading the victims to the pits where they were shot by Jeckeln's staff company. About 16,000 Jews were killed. During the massacre at Baby Yar, the same police battalion cordoned off the area, while Sonderkommando 4a and a platoon of the Waffen-SS did the shooting.

title: Alejandro Betts

text:
Alejandro Jacobo Betts (born Alexander Jacob Betts, 28 October 1947 – 13 March 2020) was a Falklands-born Argentine air-traffic controller and activist who worked with the Argentine government as a technical advisor on the Tierra del Fuego's Malvinas Question Provincial Observatory Advisory Council. Betts supported Argentina's claim to the Falkland Islands and was a controversial figure in the Falklands as a result. Betts also was the older brother of Terry Betts, who served as a member of the Falkland Islands Legislative Council and assisted British forces in the Falklands War.  His younger brother Peter served in the British Task Force.

Early life

Betts, a fourth generation Falkland Islander, was born to Cyril Betts and Mally Goss, who ran the Victory Bar in Stanley.  The Goss family first arrived in the Falklands in approximately 1841/2, when Jacob Napoleon Goss (great-great-grandfather) and his wife Ann Patrick arrived on board the Alarm.  John Betts (great-great-grandfather) arrived on 9 August 1855, following the shipwreck of the Carlton.

Betts has two younger brothers who participated in the Falklands War: Peter, who was a merchant seaman who served with the British task force, and Terry, who was one of the islanders who volunteered to support British forces.  After the war Terry was elected to serve in the Falkland Islands Government. Another brother died in infancy as the result of meningitis.  He also had two half-brothers and two half-sisters from his father's first marriage.

At the age of fourteen Betts went to train as sheep shearer and later worked for LADE as an air-traffic controller at Port Stanley Airport. Betts' first wife, Candy, died in 1977 at the age of 26. The couple had a son, Paul, born in 1968 and a daughter, Dawn, born in 1969. Betts' second marriage was to Rosita, a Chilean-Falkander, with whom he had two children. When he left the Falklands in 1982, he left his daughter Dawn with Rosita.  His son Paul was at school in Argentina, where he still lives and has adopted the name Pablo. Following the Falklands War, Betts divorced Rosita, marrying Santina Toranzo, with whom he had three children.  He married his fourth wife Carol Oyola in 2000.

Betts claimed that he began to question British sovereignty over the Falklands when he spoke to an Argentine tourist about the issue in the 1970s. He stated that he started studying the history of the Falkland Islands in 1976 and concluded after two years of research that "Argentina had absolute rights over the island territory". Betts' claim that he had supported Argentine sovereignty over the islands as early as 1976 is disputed. On 18 May 1978 Betts sent a letter to the Falkland Islands Times, strongly protesting against the weak response of the British government to the establishment of an Argentine base on Thule Island.  Both of his brothers appear to have been aware of his support for Argentina.

Falklands war

In 1982 the Argentine military government invaded the Falklands and occupied the islands for 74 days, which led to the Falklands war between Argentina and the United Kingdom. Betts left the Falklands a few days after the Argentine surrender, with his wife and children remaining on the islands.

The reasons and circumstances surrounding Betts' departure from the Falklands are disputed. Betts claims he was forced to leave by British forces, with the support of many Falkland Islanders, as a result of his support for Argentina during the war. Islanders were apparently unaware of Betts' claim to support Argentina and  suggested he left the Falklands of his own accord, abandoning his wife and their children (and his 13 yr old daughter from his previous marriage), because he was having an extramarital affair with an Argentine who was working on the islands. John Fowler, the former deputy editor of Penguin News, pointed out in an editorial that other islanders who collaborated with the Argentine military during the war suffered no persecution and still live in the islands.

Life in Argentina

After leaving the Falklands, Betts moved to Córdoba Province and married his Argentine partner, Caroline. In 2007 Betts unsuccessfully ran for Mayor of Córdoba.

Betts campaigned in support of Argentine sovereignty over the Falklands, giving evidence at annual meetings of the United Nations Special Committee on Decolonization as part of Argentina's delegation.  In 1987, his brother Terry Betts also gave evidence to the committee as a member of the Falkland Islands Government and although they sat together did not speak, he later said that his brother had ″lost touch″ with developments on the islands since the war.  Betts was later to criticise his brother's attendance stating:

In response, John Fowler of the Penguin Times in an editorial replied:

In late 2013 Betts was made a technical advisor of the Tierra del Fuego Malvinas Observatory.

In his evidence to the Special Committee's meeting in 2013, Betts caused controversy when he suggested that during the Falkland Islands sovereignty referendum campaign, Peter Willets, an Emeritus Professor of Global Politics from City University London, had his credentials as an official referendum observer removed by the Falkland Islands Government because he stated the referendum result would not be recognised legally. Peter Willets later strongly condemned Betts' comments as a "highly distorted account" and stated that:

In 2015 Clarín criticised Betts for receiving a war veteran's pension from the Argentine government despite never being a member of the Argentine military and was not an Argentine citizen at the time of the war. Betts responded to the article by pointing out that he had "never denied being an Argentine Malvinas war veteran" and that one of the requisites to collect the veteran's pension is to have been in the Falklands during the war.

The controversy over his treatment of his family led to the Argentine government under President Macri dropping Betts from the Argentine delegation to the UN decolonisation committee in 2018.  In addition, according to MercoPress, this was because he was considered "too aggressive for the British delegation and Falklands petitioners". He was criticised for his allegedly querulant behaviour by some sources.

In early 2020 he was diagnosed with spinal cancer and died on 13 March 2020.

title: Lirim Hajrullahu

text:
Lirim Hajrullahu ( ; born April 24, 1990) is a Kosovar-born Canadian gridiron football placekicker for the Philadelphia Stars of the United States Football League (USFL). He became a Grey Cup champion with the Toronto Argonauts after kicking the game-winning field goal in the 105th Grey Cup game (2017) and is a two-time Canadian Football League (CFL) East Division All-Star (2016, 2019). Hajrullahu played college football at Western Ontario and attended Governor Simcoe Secondary School in St. Catharines, Ontario.

Early life
Lirim Hajrullahu was born in Gjilan to father Nijazi Hajrullahu and mother Tevide. He is of Kosovo Albanian descent. His father had been a professor at the University of Sarajevo. Lirim is a middle child, and has an older sister Lume and a younger sister Linda.

As a child growing up in Gjilan, he played soccer during and after school, which is where he learned to kick. He went to Governor Simcoe Secondary School in St. Catharines and graduated in 2009.

On May 27, 1999, the family immigrated to Canada. They landed in CFB Trenton and spent two weeks at the base before moving to Kingston, Ontario where they spent two months of their summer. They received classes on the English language, and Hajrullahu received a bicycle through donations.

Due to the lack of soccer infrastructure in his town, he also picked up playing basketball and volleyball. Hajrullahu credits sports as "a gateway to communicate with other Canadians" which helped him learn English. He had friends trying out for the football team in grade 9, while Hajrullahu took up soccer. In the school hallways, he caught the attention of football coach D’Arcy McCardle who "was struck by the student's big frame and thick legs." McCardle approached him to play on the football team but Harjullahu felt the sport was too dangerous and brushed him off. After a year of insistence, McCardle told him to try out on the first day of school  in grade 10 and if Hajrullahu didn't like it then he wouldn't bother him again. "I went out for one practice and I fell in love with the game," explained Hajrullahu. He played right tackle when he was in grade 11, and played as a linebacker,  offensive lineman and kicker in grade 12.

Hajrullahu attended the University of Western Ontario's School of Kinesiology, receiving his bachelor's degree in sports management in 2013 and his master's degree in management and leadership in 2015. He attended Niagara University – Ontario where he received his MBA in finance in 2017.

Collegiate career

Western Mustangs
Hajrullahu's secondary school football coach D’Arcy McCardle mentioned him to Western Mustangs football coach Greg Marshall during the recruiting process when the two discussed kickers. Hajrullahu received scholarship opportunities from across Canada and narrowed his choice down between Western and Queen's University, choosing the former.

He credits his kicking talents from persistently kicking the ball, stating "In university, I'd kick from after school until after you couldn't see the light anymore, three or four hours. As a young punter and kicker, you have to develop power and muscle memory."

National team

In 2009, Hajrullahu was selected as part of the Canada national junior football team, which competed at the 2009 IFAF Junior World Championship in Canton, Ohio. Canada beat New Zealand on June 27 to advance to the semi-finals, and beat Japan on July 1 to reach the finals. Canada secured the silver medal after losing to the United States on July 5.

In 2011, Hajrullahu was selected as part of the Canada national football team, which competed at the 2011 IFAF World Championship in Austria. Canada won the Group 2 round-robin stage after beating France on July 9, Austria on July 11, and Japan on July 13 to advance to the finals. Canada secured the silver medal after losing to the United States on July 16.

Professional career

Winnipeg Blue Bombers
On January 17, 2014, Hajrullahu was signed by the Winnipeg Blue Bombers of the Canadian Football League (CFL). On November 5, Hajrullahu was announced as the winner of the Winnipeg Blue Bomber's Most Outstanding Canadian, Most Outstanding Special Teams, and Most Outstanding Rookie awards. On November 13, he won the West Division's Most Outstanding Special Teams Award.

Toronto Argonauts
Hajrullahu became a free agent on February 9, 2016, and signed with the Toronto Argonauts that same day.

In the 2016 season, he became the first player to score points in the first regular-season CFL game at BMO Field on June 23. He scored the first CFL points for both a visiting team and the Argonauts. He conceded a safety to the Hamilton Tiger-Cats, then later kicked a field goal for the Argos. Hamilton won the game, 40–23. On November 2, Hajrullahu was announced as the winner of the Toronto Argonaut's Most Outstanding Canadian and Most Outstanding Special Teams awards. On November 9, Hajrullahu was named as part of the East Division's All-Star team.

On January 11, 2017, Hajrullahu signed a contract extension with the team for the 2017 season. On November 26, Hajrullahu kicked the game-winning field goal to secure a win in the 105th Grey Cup for Toronto at TD Place Stadium. He had gone into the championship game mourning the death of his younger cousin who had died in a car crash in Kosovo in the days leading up to Hajrullahu's big game.

Hamilton Tiger-Cats
On February 13, 2018, Hajrullahu signed a contract with the Hamilton Tiger-Cats.

During the 2018 season, Hajrullahu converted 85% of his field goals, while the Ti-Cats advanced in the playoffs to the East final before being eliminated. Despite receiving NFL interest, including a workout with the Seattle Seahawks, Hajrullahu took his time in choosing a team for 2019; he eventually signed a 2-year contract to return to Hamilton after six weeks of free agency.

On November 6, 2019, Hajrullahu was named as part of the East Division's All-Star team. While he would have been in the option year of his contract following the 2019 season, the NFL did not allow its teams to sign CFL players entering these option years. After there was still no resolution to this issue, the Tiger-Cats released Hajrullahu on January 9, 2020, to allow him to pursue NFL opportunities.

Los Angeles Rams
On April 13, 2020, Hajrullahu signed a contract with the Los Angeles Rams of the National Football League (NFL). It was exactly a day short of 21 years, when on April 14, 1999, Hajrullahu and his family were forced out of their village due to the Kosovo War. Hajrullahu received interest from five teams at the NFL combine in March in Arizona, which he had been attending every year since his days playing for Winnipeg.

He was waived on September 4, 2020, after losing the kicker job to rookie Sam Sloman. Although there was no preseason and training camp practices were closed to the general public because of the COVID-19 pandemic, it was reported that he "was the victim of NFL politics",  despite Hajrullahu having been the best statistical kicker during practices, with Sloman sharing the same alma mater (Miami University), as Rams head coach Sean McVay.

In November 2020, Hajrullahu signed with the Generals of The Spring League (TSL) and played in their inaugural fall season.

Carolina Panthers
On December 9, 2020, Hajrullahu was signed to the Carolina Panthers' practice squad, but was released six days later due to a work visa problem. He signed a reserve/future contract with the Panthers on January 4, 2021. He was waived on March 22.

Hajrullahu returned to the Generals for The Spring League's 2021 season. On May 8, he went 5-for-5 in field goals in the first game, including the longest field goal of his career at 59 yards. It was the TSL's television debut on Fox, and Hajrullahu set a new league record for longest field goal, tied the single-game record for fields goals, and was named the South Division Player of the Week.

Dallas Cowboys
On August 18, 2021, Hajrullahu signed with the Dallas Cowboys after the team released punter and emergency kicker Hunter Niswander, who had been filling in at placekicker for an injured Greg Zuerlein. He spent five days in training camp and was released on August 24, 2021. He was re-signed to the practice squad on September 14. He was released from the practice squad on September 21.

He was re-signed on November 10. In Week 10, he replaced Zuerlein, after he tested positive for COVID-19, making all five of his extra points and did not attempt a single field goal against the Atlanta Falcons. He was released on November 23.

Washington Football Team
On December 11, 2021, Hajrullahu was signed to the Washington Football Team's practice squad.

Carolina Panthers (second stint)
On December 22, 2021, following the injury of Zane Gonzalez in pre-game warmups in Week 15, the Panthers signed Hajrullahu off Washington's practice squad. He played in the last 3 games of the season, making 4 of 5 field goal attempts and 3 of 3 extra point attempts. He was waived on May 4, 2022.

Dallas Cowboys (second stint)
On July 1, 2022, he was signed by the Dallas Cowboys to compete for the starting job with rookie Jonathan Garibay. On August 9, 2022, Garibay was waived and the Cowboys signed free agent Brett Maher to compete with Hajrullahu. On August 23, 2022, he was released after losing the kicking battle to Maher.

Philadelphia Stars
Hajrullahu signed with the Philadelphia Stars of the USFL on May 17, 2023.

Personal life
Hajrullahu is married to Deniza Januzi. The couple met while attending university, and married in 2017. Deniza emigrated to Canada from Kosovo escaping war under similar circumstances as her husband. She graduated from the Ivey School of Business at the University of Western Ontario, receiving her undergraduate degree in Honours Business Administration and afterwards a Master of Business Administration (MBA) degree from the Lazaridis School of Business and Economics at Laurier University.

Personal was founded in 2009 in Washington, DC by the management team that built The Map Network, a location data and mapping platform that was acquired by Nokia/NAVTEQ in 2006. Personal was the first online consumer-facing company to be named an Ambassador for Privacy by Design for its technical, business and legal commitments to providing users with control over the data they store in Personal's service. Called a “life management platform” by The Economist and a “personal encrypted cloud service” by TIME for its user-centric approach to data, the company has been associated with both the Infomediary model originated in 1999 by John Hagel III and Mark Singer, as well as the vendor relationship management (VRM) model developed by Doc Searls. Personal raised $30m in funding to develop its platform and products from such leading investors as Steve Case's Revolution Ventures, Grotech Ventures, Allen & Company, Ted Leonsis, Neil Ashe, Jonathan Miller, Bill Miller of Legg Mason, Esther Dyson of EDventures, and Eric C. Anderson.

The company received recognition for its user agreement, called the Owner Data Agreement, which acted like a reverse license agreement when data was shared between registered parties and emphasized that data ownership resides with the user. Doc Searls wrote in The Intention Economy: When Customers Take Charge that the Owner Data Agreement “had no precedent and modeled a new legal position, both for vendors and for intermediaries.” Personal was early to embrace “small data,” which it defines as “big data for the benefit of individuals.” The term “small data” may have been originally coined by Jeremie Miller of Sing.ly, who mentioned it in a talk at the Web 2.0 Summit in November 2011 and is cited in The Intention Economy. In 2011, Personal was a part of the first group of companies to join the Personal Data Ecosystem Consortium's Startup Circle. A Small Data Meetup group has also formed in New York City, bringing together technology, legal and business experts to exchange ideas about user-centric and user-driven models for internet products and services. Personal has been included in case studies by Ctrl-Shift and Forrester regarding Personal Data Stores and Personal Identity Management.

In 2011, Personal received the Innovator Spotlight Award at Privacy Identity Innovation Conference (pii2011) and participated in the Technology Showcase at pii2012. In 2012, TechHive named Personal as one of the top five apps or web services of SXSW. Personal won the 2013 Campus Technology Innovators Award with Lone Star College in July 2013. Personal was included in a list of Executive Travel Magazine's favorite travel apps for 2013 in its May/June issue. In 2013, Personal was also included as part of NYU GovLab's Open Data 500 and was named by J. Walter Thompson as one of 100 things to watch for in 2014. In 2015, the National Law Journal named Company Chief Policy Officer and General Counsel, Joshua P. Galper, as one of their 50 "Cybersecurity & Privacy Trailblazers."

Products and services

Overview
The Personal Platform was a privacy- and security-by-design platform for individuals to manage and reuse their own data and information. The Fill It app was a 1-click form-filling solution for web and mobile logins, checkouts and forms, and the Data Vault app served as the main cloud-based repository for a user's data. Personal helped individuals take control and benefit from their information while knowing that the information in their Data Vault remained legally theirs and could not be used without their permission.

Data Vault with Cloud Sync
Personal spent two years building the Personal Platform before launching its Data Vault product in beta in November 2011. Following Privacy by Design principles, Personal only enabled users to see or share the sensitive data and all the files they stored in their Data Vault. Such information was encrypted, and could only be decrypted with a user's password. Only users could choose and know their passwords to their vault because Personal did not store user passwords – and therefore could not reset them without deleting a user's sensitive data and all files stored in their vault. All Personal apps and services were linked to a user's private Data Vault.

The Data Vault featured automatic synchronization of data and files added on any device logged into Personal. It also featured a “Secure Share” function that created a live, private network, allowing registered users to share access to data and files through an exchange of encrypted keys without the risk of transmitting the data or files through non-secure, direct means. It also allowed users to immediately update data across their own network and revoke access to it when they choose. Fast Company called the Data Vault “a tool that will simplify our lives.”

Personal launched its Android app on November 30, 2011. The iOS Data Vault app was released on May 7, 2012. Personal officially launched its application programming interface (APIs) on October 2, 2012 at the Mashery Business of APIs Conference. A review by CNET highlighted the challenges of getting people to trust such a new service with their sensitive data and spending the time required entering enough data to make it useful.

Fill It App and Form Index
When the Data Vault was launched in November 2011, Mashable posed the question: “Never Fill Out a Form Again?” The World Economic Forum in its February 2013 report highlighted the possibility of saving 10 billion hours globally “and improv[ing] the delivery of public and private sector services” through automated form-filling tools, specifically citing Personal's Fill It app. In January 2013, Personal launched Fill It in beta as a web bookmarklet for automatic form-filling.

On June 11, 2014, Personal released Fill It as a web extension and announced that it was publishing an index of over 140,000 1-click online forms at www.fillit.com. The company also announced that a mobile version of the product will launch later in the year. According to a story in Tech Cocktail about the launch, Personal's “web extension and mobile app are able to support over 1,200 different types of reusable data, even enabling them to unlock more confidential information so they can complete longer forms, including patient registrations, job applications, event registrations, school admissions, insurance and bank applications, and government forms.” In November 2014, a mobile version of Fill It was launched that could autofill mobile forms using APIs.

Personal's form portal ultimately indexed more than 500,000 forms with three components, which, together, allowed data to be captured and reused across any of the forms: (1) a form graph, which mapped individual form fields to the Personal ontology; (2) a semantic layer, which determined how data was required on a form (e.g. one field vs. three fields for a U.S. telephone number); and (3) a correlations graph, which helped individuals match their specific data to a form without looking at the data value (e.g. knowing which phone number is a mobile phone number, which address is a billing address, or that a person uses their middle name as a first name on most forms).

Monetizing personal data
With the initial public offering of Facebook in May 2012, there was media interest in the question of the monetary value of personal data and whether tools and services might emerge to help consumers monetize their own data. Personal was frequently cited as a company that could potentially offer such a service. Articles and pieces focusing on this subject have appeared in The New York Times, AdWeek, the MIT Technology Review, and on CNN and National Public Radio. Company Co-founder and CEO Shane Green was quoted as saying that “the average American consumer would soon be able to realize over $1,000 per year” by granting limited, anonymous access to their data to marketers, but that figure was never supported by Green or the company.

Launch of TeamData
In May 2016, Personal shifted its product focus to TeamData, which focuses on the problem of securing and collaboratively managing data in the workplace. It is now a separate business.

title: Redmi

text:
Redmi is a subsidiary company owned by the Chinese electronics company Xiaomi. It was first announced in July 2013 as a budget smartphone line, and became a separate sub-brand of Xiaomi in 2019 with entry-level and mid-range devices, while Xiaomi itself produces upper-range and flagship Xiaomi (formerly Mi) phones. Redmi phones use Xiaomi's MIUI user interface on top of Android. Models are divided into the entry-level Redmi, the mid-range Redmi Note, and the high-end Redmi K. The unrelated Mi A Android One series is positioned in the same market segment as Redmi devices, despite being part of the upper-range Xiaomi Mi lineup. The most significant difference from other Xiaomi smartphones is that Redmi uses less expensive components, allowing lower prices while retaining good specifications. In August 2014, The Wall Street Journal reported that in the second quarter of the 2014 fiscal year,  Xiaomi had a market share of 14% of the China smartphone market; Redmi sales were attributed as a contributing factor toward this ranking.

History

2013
The first Redmi phone Redmi (Red Rice in Mandarin), released in China in 2013, was first launched on Xiaomi's website, with consumer sales beginning on 12 July 2013. The phone was internationally released under the Redmi brand in early 2014.

2014
On 13 March 2014, Redmi announced that their phones had been sold out in Singapore alone, eight minutes after being made available to buy on Xiaomi's website. Criticism regarding the release of Redmi phones included the notion that the firm may be exaggerating its sales by releasing them in small batches, causing them to quickly sell out.

On 4 August 2014, The Wall Street Journal reported that in China's smartphone market, Xiaomi overtook Samsung in the second quarter of the 2014 fiscal year with a 14% market share in smartphone shipment rankings, while Samsung had a 12% market share during this time. Yulong and Lenovo both had a 12% market share during this time. Redmi sales were attributed as contributing to Xiaomi's increased shipment rankings in the smartphone market. Conversely, in the first quarter of 2014, Xiaomi held a 10.7% market share.

2015
The Redmi Note 3 launched on 24 November 2015; unlike its predecessor, it does not have a user-changeable battery or microSD slot.

2023

Phone firmware

Most Android phones, including Redmi and others by Xiaomi, have firmware (operating software)  which can be updated to modify features, add functionality, correct errors, and update security. Firmware updates can often be carried out automatically ("over the air", OTA), and updated versions can be downloaded and installed. Model-specific alternative firmware from independent developers, claiming advantages over stock firmware, is available for many phones; one example is LineageOS, which supports several Xiaomi phones. The Xiaomi European Community, in particular, provides firmware based on MIUI for many Xiaomi models, working with Xiaomi, based on heavily modified firmware for the relevant China model, claiming many advantages.

List of products

List is made according to Chinese names if the device has multiple names. The different models (e.g. M1901F7G) of each device model (e.g. Redmi Note 7) have differing details for different regions, in particular supporting a different range of frequency bands. Models have code names which relate to their firmware; only firmware with the right code is compatible. For example, the Redmi 10 India and Redmi 10 Power have interchangeable firmware (fog), but are not compatible with the Redmi 10 2022 (selenes).

title: Sharbot Lake (Ontario)

text:
Sharbot Lake is a lake in the municipality of Central Frontenac, Frontenac County in Eastern Ontario, Canada. It is part of the Saint Lawrence River drainage basin. The eponymous community of Sharbot Lake is located at the centre of the north shore of the lake.

The primary outflow, at the northeast, is the Fall River, which flows via the Mississippi River and the Ottawa River to the Saint Lawrence River.

Sharbot Lake Provincial Park is named for, and is partly on the northwest shore of, the lake, but mostly envelops the neighbouring Black Lake. Ontario Highway 7 runs roughly along the northwest side of the lake, and the former Ontario Highway 38, now County Road 38, crosses the lake at the location of the community of Sharbot Lake. The same crossing point is used by the multi-use K&P Rail Trail (part of the Trans Canada Trail), formerly the rail bed of the Kingston and Pembroke Railway.
Sharbot Lake is named after a First Nations Chief named Francis Chabot, who was Mohawk and his wife Algonquin.

Rugby career
As a loosehead prop, McKellar played more than 150 premier grade games over a decade at Souths Rugby Club in Brisbane, winning a premiership in 2000. He was a member of the Queensland Reds Super Rugby squad in 2005 and 2006. He also had stints playing overseas in Scotland and Ireland. McKellar began learning the art of coaching at Wicklow, a small rugby club just outside Dublin in Ireland. He was playing in the team and acting as his side's assistant coach in 2001, and took over the main player-coach role from 2002 to 2005.

Coaching career
McKellar was a premier grade assistant coach at Souths Rugby Club in Brisbane in 2007, and the head coach from 2008 to 2010.

Returning to Canberra, he signed with the Brumbies as the club's defence and skills coach for the 2014 Super Rugby season. After the launch of the National Rugby Championship, he was appointed as head coach of the University of Canberra Vikings team to play in the new competition.

McKellar was appointed as head coach of the Brumbies for the 2018 season following Stephen Larkham's departure.

In August 2021 it was announced McKellar would wind up a successful five-year stint as Brumbies head coach at the end of the 2022 Super Rugby season and would remain in his position with the Australia national team. During his time as Brumbies head coach he led the side to the Super Rugby Semi-Final in 2019, and back-to-back Super Rugby AU Grand-Finals in 2020–21, famously taking out the 2020 title in front of a home crowd at GIO Stadium.

After holding his role within the Australia national team since 2021, McKellar resigned from his job to join English Premiership team the Leicester Tigers, effective from 1 July 2023.
