title: No Sound Without Silence

text:
No Sound Without Silence is the fourth studio album by Irish pop rock band The Script. The album was released by Columbia Records on 12 September 2014 in Ireland and other Friday-release countries and on 15 September 2014 in the United Kingdom. The album is the band's first full-length release under Columbia, after releasing their previous three studio albums under Phonogenic Records in Europe and Epic Records in the United States.

Largely recorded aboard the band's tour bus during the length of the 3 World Tour through 2012 and 2013, the album has been described as a "prequel" to the band's eponymous debut album, recorded with the ideology of creating an album better than what they had previously recorded. The album is preceded by "Superheroes", released as the lead single promoting the album on 22 July 2014.

Background
In 2012, The Script released their third studio album, #3. Conceived by the band to appeal to a more mainstream audience, The album was initially released alongside mixed to negative reviews from music critics, who described the album as having been rushed and lacking artistic vision, especially in the band's venture into hip hop influences. Despite the negative reaction from critics, the album was commercially successful, achieving a hot-shot debut on the Irish Album Charts and peaking at #2 on the UK Albums Chart.

The band's 2012 single, "Hall of Fame", became one of the band's most commercially successful singles, peaking at number one on the Irish and UK Singles Chart and reaching the top ten on sixteen national singles charts. The single was also certified Platinum in the United Kingdom by the British Phonographic Industry, 6× Platinum by ARIA in Australia, and 2× platinum in the United States by the RIAA. "Hall of Fame" also appeared on the Official Charts Company's Top 100 most downloaded tracks of all time in the United Kingdom in April 2014, placing number 89 on the overall list.

In April 2015, a special edition version of the album was released in Japan. This featured a bonus disc, containing 6 live-recorded tracks from their show in Tokyo on the NSWS tour. This included 4 back-catalogue songs (Breakeven, The Man Who Can't Be Moved, For The First Time, and Hall Of Fame) as well as 2 songs from the new album (Superheroes, and The Energy Never Dies).

Recording

Most of the material used for the band's fourth studio album was recorded on board the band's tour bus. On that bus, 40 potential tracks were written but ultimately only 11 tracks made the final cut. The 3 World Tour began in September 2012 and ended in July 2013.

O'Donoghue, in addition to touring with the band, had served as one of the four coaches for the first and second series of BBC talent show The Voice UK, having coached Andrea Begley to win the second series of the program. O'Donoghue, however, quit the programme shortly after the second series had aired to focus on the recording and production of No Sound Without Silence, stating that he was focused on The Script "moving forward" as they embarked on "the most important part of our career as a band".

Packaging
The title of the album, No Sound Without Silence, is both a shortening of philosophical idea put forward by the band and a critical comment on the music industry. No Sound Without Silence is a phrase derived from an idea put forward by the band, where meaningful statements cannot be made without thinking about what you want to say first; the "silence" referring to the silence that persists while a person thinks about what they want to say, and the "sound" referring to the sounds made by people when they speak. The phrase is also a comment on the state of the music industry, where, according to the band, most artists and labels do not think critically about what they want to say, therefore, do not say meaningful things. The Script lead vocalist Danny O'Donoghue commented on the album's title, stating "The time we've been away, we've had time to contemplate about what we want to say to the industry. There is no sound without silence. You can't have anything good to say if you don't think about it first".

Promotion
No Sound Without Silence was formally announced by the band and Sony on 18 July 2014. The album, its artwork and release date was unveiled through a Google Hangouts session attended by the band along with selected fans around the world. The session, which lasted a half-hour, involved the band answering questions from fans through Google+ and saw snippets from four tracks, "Superheroes", "The Energy Never Dies", "Man on a Wire" and "No Good in Goodbye", premiered live during the session. "Superheroes" was the first full track to be lifted from the album, premiering simultaneously on Capital FM and on BBC Radio 1's The Radio 1 Breakfast Show on 21 July 2014, and was released as a promotional single to United States Contemporary hit radio on 28 July 2014. "Superheroes" was also released in the United Kingdom as the band's twelfth single on 31 August 2014, serving as the first single released in promotion of No Sound Without Silence.
Hail Rain or Sunshine was used in the opening scene of the 2014 Irish comedy film, Mrs. Brown's Boys D'Movie based on the sitcom Mrs. Brown's Boys.

Critical reception

No Sound Without Silence received mixed reviews from music critics, though many commented that the album was a big improvement from their previous album #3.

title: Para Pencari Tuhan

text:
Para Pencari Tuhan (The Godseekers) is an Indonesian television series created by Deddy Mizwar. The series focuses on a musalla caretaker Bang Jack (portrayed by Deddy Mizwar) and people living around him as they learn to practice Islamic value in their lives. It is first aired on 16 September 2007.

In 2023, it received a record for Longest Continuous Ramadan Religion Series from Indonesian World Records Museum.

Premise
The series originally focuses on three ex-criminals, Chelsea, Barong, and Juki who have recently been released from prison and are unable to go back to their previous lives. They soon find themselves in a musalla and let its caretaker Bang Jack (portrayed by Deddy Mizwar) guide them. The series also has several subplots taking place in the same village, such as Ustad Ferry's job as a television presenter, the romance between Ferry's sister-in-law Aya and her old friend Azam, and the economic struggles of two best friends Udin and Asrul who have a mixed relationship with the rich businessman Jalal. Over the seasons, there are changes in the character lineup and eventually the original village is destroyed by a flood in the eleventh season.

Productions

Development
Series writer Wahyu H.S. said that in 2007, SCTV wanted to air a soap opera during sahur time instead of the more common variety show. Wahyu and Citra Sinema creative team pitched a story about three ex-convicts who learn Islam from a marbot after being released from prison yet rejected from their old lives. The original pitched title was Belajar Insyaf (Learning to Repent), but after SCTV asked for a title change, it was changed to the final title Para Pencari Tuhan, which was suggested by the producer, Deddy Mizwar.

Prior to the thirteenth season, Deddy Mizwar said that many actors, such as Idrus Madani and Agus Kuncoro, stopped appearing because they moved to another production houses. Deddy also believed that it would be hard to insert old characters into a new story when their arc have ended. A similar sentiment was expressed by Deddy before the fifteenth season; he said that the story arc for old characters would revolve around the same theme all over again.

Casting
In thirteenth to fourteenth season, Syakir Daulay were cast to play Ustad David. Betari Ayu to portray Zahro. Yasamin Jasem was selected to portray Alexandria.

In fifteenth season, Lavicky Nicholas was roped in to play Habib. Dinda Kirana was chosen to play Matahari. Dea Lestari and Tio Pakusadewo was cast to play Lara and Galaxy. Maudy Koesnaedi was cast as Nurjannah. Andre Taulany joined the cast as Deo.

Reception

Viewership
According to AGB Nielsen data, the first season of Para Pencari Tuhan gained 32% share in average dan was watched by nearly all age demographics.

SCTV's public relations said that Para Pencari Tuhan third season gained 20.7% share per episode.

title: Integral (horse)

text:
Integral (foaled 13 March 2010) is a British Thoroughbred racehorse. Unraced as a two-year-old, she was a Group 3 winner at three when finishing in a dead heat for first place in the Atalanta Stakes. In 2014 she won the Duke of Cambridge Stakes at Royal Ascot, before scoring her first Group One in her next race, the Falmouth Stakes. She went on to record a second Group One success in the Sun Chariot Stakes. In 2015 she failed to win but finished second in the Sun Chariot Stakes and fourth in the Queen Elizabeth II Stakes.

Background
Integral is a bay filly bred by Cheveley Park Stud and foaled on 13 March 2010. She was sired by Dalakhani, who was named Cartier Horse of the Year in 2003 after wins in the Prix Lupin, Prix du Jockey Club and Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe. As a breeding stallion his offspring have included Conduit, Duncan and Reliable Man. Integral's dam is Echelon, who won a number of Group races over her four-season racing career, including a Group 1 victory in the Matron Stakes in 2007. Echelon's dam Exclusive is a half-sister to the 2000 Guineas winner Entrepreneur. Integral is trained at Newmarket by Sir Michael Stoute.

Racing career

2013: three-year-old season
Integral never raced as a two-year-old and started her racing career in a one-mile maiden race at Goodwood on 31 May 2013. Jockey Ryan Moore positioned her behind the leaders, before taking the lead two furlongs from the finish and drawing clear to win by two and three quarter lengths from pre-race favourite Magic of Reality. Her next race was the Distaff Stakes, a Listed race which is run over one mile at Sandown Park. After being at the back of the field for the majority of the race, she made quick progress in the final furlong to take the lead with 100 yards to run, winning the race by one and a half lengths from Light Up My Life. On 3 August, Integral raced in the Nassau Stakes, where she started at the price of 8/1. She was short of racing room over a furlong out and had to be moved out by Moore. She never got on terms with the leaders and finished in seventh place behind winner Winsili. Integral started as the 13/8 favourite for the Atalanta Stakes at the end of August. Moore held her up and was in the last two in the early stages, before moving through the field from three furlongs out to take the lead two out. She was just overtaken by Ladys First with 100 yards to run, but battled back to join her on the line, with the pair finishing in a dead heat for first place, one and three quarter lengths clear of third-placed Shuruq. Integral's final race of 2013 was the Sun Chariot Stakes on 28 September, where she was again held up in the early stages. She began to make headway two furlongs out and was in the lead as the field entered the final furlong, but she was overtaken by Sky Lantern, with about half a furlong to go. Sky Lantern won the race by a length from Integral, who was two lengths ahead of third-placed Duntle.

2014: four-year-old season
Integral started favourite for her reappearance as a four-year-old in the Dahlia Stakes. After being held up at the rear she moved through to challenge the leaders as they entered the final furlong. Esoterique and Integral pulled away from the rest of the field and were neck and neck inside the last 200 yards, but Integral could not quite get to Esoterique, losing by a head. At Royal Ascot, Integral was one of the 14 fillies and mares to line up for the Duke of Cambridge Stakes. Ryan Moore positioned her just behind the leaders in the early stages before quickening to take the lead over a furlong from the finish. She drifted right in the closing stages, but pulled away to win by two lengths from L'Amour De Ma Vie. On 11 July, Integral was ridden by regular jockey Ryan Moore in the Falmouth Stakes. She started the race as the 15/8 favourite and chased leader Sky Lantern in the early stages. Rizeena moved up to join Sky Lantern at the head of the field after three furlongs, with Integral just behind the pair. Sky Lantern began to fade three furlongs from the finish, leaving Rizeena in an outright lead until she was overtaken by Integral over one furlong from the finish. As they entered the final furlong Integral had a two length lead, which she maintained until the finish to win the race, beating runner-up Rizeena by that margin, with Peace Burg a further three quarters of a length behind the runner-up in third place.

Integral then traveled to Frances for the Prix Rothschild, where she faced only three opponents. Racing abroad for the first time, she raced in second for much of the race and all four runners were in with a chance with 200 metres to run. Miss France took the lead about 100 metres out, but was soon overtaken by Esoterique, who won the race by three quarters of a length from Miss France, with Integral third and L'Amour De Ma Vie fourth. In October, Integral returned to Newmarket for the Group One Sun Chariot Stakes in which she was one of four 7/2 co-favourites alongside Fintry, Esoterique and Miss France, with Sky Lantern among the other runners. She took the lead from the start and set a steady pace from Esoterique before accelerating in the final quarter mile and winning by a length from Miss France. Integral was matched against colts in the Queen Elizabeth II Stakes at Ascot on 18 October. She started the 9/2 second favourite but never looked likely to win and finished seventh of the eleven runners behind Charm Spirit.

2015: five-year-old season
On her five-year-old debut, Integral finished fourth against male opposition in the Lockinge Stakes and then attempted to repeat her 2014 success in the Duke of Cambridge Stakes. She was made the 8/11 favourite but tired badly in the closing stages and finished fifth of the six runners behind Amazing Maria. After a lengthy break she returned in October for the Sun Chariot Stakes on 3 October. After leading for most of the way she was caught inside the final furlong and beaten half a length by the French-trained Esoterique. Two weeks later she started a 20/1 outsider for the Queen Elizabeth II Stakes in which she was ridden for the first time by Frankie Dettori. She stayed on steadily in the closing stages to finish fourth of the nine runners behind Solow, Belardo and Gabrial.

Assessment
At the end of 2013, Integral was given an official rating of 115 for her performance in the Sun Chariot Stakes, ranking her as the joint 200th best racehorse in the world.

text:
CKMO-FM (101.5 FM, FM 101 Orangeville) is a radio station licensed to Orangeville, Ontario. Owned by Local Radio Lab, it broadcasts an adult contemporary format. Its studios are located on Mill Street in downtown Orangeville.

CKMO-FM is the only Orangeville-based station to specifically target Orangeville; the town's only other licensed radio station, CIDC-FM, is marketed towards the entirety of the Greater Toronto Area.

History
My Broadcasting previously submitted an application for the station in 2012 at the same frequency and parameters, but the application was soon withdrawn.

On November 6, 2014 at 11:12am, CKMO-FM began on air testing with Christmas music on 101.5 MHz. In late December 2014, 101.5 FM switched from Christmas music to air 10,000 songs in a row.

On the morning of February 17, 2015, CKMO-FM  launched its regular programming, followed by a ribbon-cutting ceremony at noon with Mayor Jeremy Williams, Councillor Nick Garisto, and CKMO-FM General Manager Gail James.

On June 25, 2021, the CRTC approved the sale of CKMO and its sister stations CIMA-FM/Alliston and CJML-FM/Milton to Local Radio Lab, a new company owned by former Haliburton Broadcasting Group owner Christopher Grossman.

Historical use of CKMO call sign
From 1928 to 1955, the call letters CKMO were used at a pioneer radio station in Vancouver, British Columbia. On February 1, 1992, CKOC in Hamilton, Ontario dropped its historical call letters and adopted CKMO. However, after a few months the Hamilton station changed owners, and the CKOC call sign was restored. In 1993, CKMO became available for a radio station in Victoria, British Columbia, until 2012.

title: AqBurkitt

text:
{{DISPLAYTITLE:AqBurkitt}}

The AqBurkitt (also: Trismegistos nr: 62108, Taylor-Schechter 12.184 + Taylor-Schechter 20.50 = Taylor-Schlechter 2.89.326, vh074, t050, LDAB 3268) are fragments of a palimpsest containing a portion of the Books of Kings from Aquila's translation of the Hebrew bible from the 6th century, overwritten by some liturgical poems of Yanai dating from the 9–11th century. This  Aquila translation was performed approximately in the early or mid-second century C.E.

History
A lot of manuscripts were found at Geniza, in the Ben Ezra Synagogue, Egypt and these palimpsest fragments were brought to Cambridge by Solomon Schechter. AqBurkitt was published by Francis Crawford Burkitt (this is where the name comes from) in Fragments of the Books of Kings According to the Translation of Aquila (1897). Burkitt concludes that the manuscript is indisputably Jewish because it comes from the Geniza, and because the Jews at the time of Justinian used the Aquila version. On the other hand, it has been argued that the scribe who copied it was a Christian.

Description
There are preserved "separate pairs of conjugate vellum leaves" of the manuscript (bifolium). Each leaf is  tall  by  wide.

Aquila's text
Aquila's text is badly preserved. It has been written in two columns and 23 or 24 lines per page and contains parts of 1 Kings 20:7–17 and 2 Kings 23:11–27 (3 Kings xxi 7–17 and 4 Kings xxiii 11–27 according to Septuagint numbering). This palimpsest is written in koine Greek language, in bold uncial letters, without capital letters at beginnings or paragraphs or as the first letter of the pages. This is one of the few fragments that preserve part of the translation of Aquila, which has also been found in a few hexaplaric manuscripts.

Tetragrammaton and nomina sacra
The tetragrammaton is written in paleo-Hebrew script characters () in following places: 1 Kings 20:13, 14; 2 Kings 23:12, 16, 21, 23, 25, 26, 27. The rendering of the letters yod and waw are generally identical and the sign used for it is a corruption of both letters. In one instance, where there was insufficient space at the end of a line, the tetragrammaton is given by , the nomen sacrum rendering of the genitive case of Κύριος which is unique in the Genizah manuscripts. Criticizing the idea of Jewish origin of the manuscript because of the presence of the nomina sacra, Edmon L. Gallagher noted that none of Greek manuscripts considered Jewish use κύριος as divine name. He concludes that there is no certainty about whether it was a Jew or a Christian who transcribed the Cairo Genizah manuscripts of the Greek translation of the Hebrew Bible by Aquila.

Yannai's text
The upper text is a liturgical work of Yannai written in Hebrew. This work contains Qerovot poems on four sedarim in Leviticus (13:29; 14:1; 21:1; 22:13), "which can be joined with other leaves in the Genizah to make a complete quire". The text was dated to 11th century C.E. by Schechter,  but it may be older, even to the ninth century.

Actual location
This fragment is currently stored in the University of Cambridge Digital Library.

Winnie Nanyondo (born 23 August 1993, in Mulago) is a Ugandan middle- and long-distance runner. She has represented her native country in several important international events, including both the 2016 Rio Olympics and 2020 Tokyo Olympics, the 2014 World University Cross Country Championships, the 2014 Commonwealth Games, the 2013 Summer Universiade, and the 2012 World Junior Championships in Athletics.

Career

2012–2013
At the 2012 World Junior Championships, she reached the final in the 800 metres after running a personal best of 2:02.38 in her semi-final. The final was won by American Ajee' Wilson in a personal best of 2:00.91, with Nanyondo finishing a disappointing last in 2:07.23.

A year later, at the 2013 Summer Universiade in the 800 metres, her 2:02.96 finish time in the semi-finals was not fast enough to advance to the final. Nor did her 4:28.77 finish time in the semi-finals of the 1500 metres qualify her for the final.

2014
In 2014, Uganda hosted the Universiade World Cross Country Championships. Nanyondo took a 30-second victory to lead the home team to a 1-2-3 sweep and the team championship.

Later in the year, she improved her track performance, taking her 800 metres time under 2:00.00 with a 1:59.27 race-winning performance in the Golden Spike Ostrava meet.

A little more than a month later, at the Herculis meet in Monaco, she again improved her personal best in the 800 meters to 1:58.63, which placed her third behind second-place finisher and 2013 world champion Eunice Sum (1:57.92) and the winner Ajee' Wilson (1:57.67).

At the 2014 Commonwealth Games in Glasgow, Scotland, Nanyondo won a bronze medal for finishing third in the 800 metres final with a time of 2:01.38, just behind Sum of Kenya and Lynsey Sharp of Scotland.

2015–2016
In 2015 and 2016, she raced slower than her personal best in the 800 metres, failing to run faster than 2 minutes flat. She ran her season's best time of 2:01.97 at a race in  Kortrijk, Belgium on 11 July 2015, finishing third. At the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro, she did not advance out of the first round of the 800 metres event, finishing sixth in heat #5 in a time of 2:02.77.

However, she improved her personal best at 1500 metres in Kawasaki, Japan, on 10 May 2015, finishing the race in 4:17.13.

title: Pakistani dramas

text:
Pakistani dramas, or Pakistani serials, are televised serials produced in Pakistan. Although most of the serials are produced in Urdu, an increasing number of them are produced in other Pakistani languages such as Sindhi,  Pashto,  Punjabi and Balochi. One of Pakistan's oldest television dramas is the Urdu serial Khuda Ki Basti, which aired in 1969. Pakistani dramas, like serials elsewhere, reflect the country's culture. According to Farooq Sulehria 1970s & 1980 are  considered to be golden old days of Pakistani serials.

They have helped to attract viewers nationwide to television. The serials are watched in India and are popular in other South Asian countries, including Afghanistan, Bangladesh and Nepal.

Origin
Many Pakistani dramas are based on Urdu novels and in the subsequent years after 1969, many authors became television writers such as Umera Ahmad and Farhat Ishtiaq; both of whom have written content for digests as well as television serials. In recent years, Pakistani dramas have increasingly begun to tackle social issues that are considered taboos.

Social impact
Pakistani feminists are usually concerned about depiction of women in Pakistani drama TV serials, they receive many of those with skepticism & reservation.  UK based Pakistani feminist Tasneem Ahmar, whose research institute focuses on the women-media relationships, complaints 99.99% of TV drama in Pakistan is misogynist, patriarchal medieval in its depiction and treatment of women issues. Ahmar says there is no doubt that Pakistani Drama TV serials are hugely popular among all strata of Pakistani society, but unfortunately they waste their potential of doing better in projecting progressive values rather than regressive values vis a vis women's depiction & support to equal rights.

Popularity outside Pakistan

Middle East
In 2013, the Pakistani drama Humsafar was dubbed into Arabic and broadcast by MBC in the Middle East as Rafeeq-Al-Rooh. The show was immediately successful and, after its first few episodes were broadcast, became the channel's most-watched drama. Before this, Pakistani dramas were not broadcast in the Middle East. After Humasafar, other shows such as Malaal (aired as Hob-Wa-Nadam), Zindagi Gulzar Hai (aired as Asrar Al Hob),  Mera Naam Yousuf Hai, Daastan, Kadoorat, Mera Naseeb, Mata-e-Jaan Hai Tu, Noor Bano, Dil-e-Muztar, Khaani, Gul-o-Gulzar, Balaa, Cheekh, Do Bol, Koi Chand Rakh, Aisi Hai Tanhai, and Suno Chanda "Chaudry and Sons" were also dubbed into Arabic and broadcast by MBC.

India
Dramas such as Deewarein, Waris, and Jungle were popular in India during the 1980s, but the Indian government has imposed a ban on Pakistani television channels in India. In 2009, the Senate of Pakistan's broadcasting division appealed to the Parliament of India to lift the ban. In 2012, India began debating whether to reverse the ban on Pakistani television channels. India assured Pakistan that it would consider a proposal by Pakistani foreign secretary Jalil Abbas Jilani to lift the ban.

Zee Entertainment Enterprises (ZEEL) launched an entertainment television channel, Zindagi, on 23 June 2014. The channel aired syndicated television shows from Pakistan, and has been well received. It has been criticized, however, for showing dramas with a smaller number of episodes. To appease viewers, the channel aired Pakistani television shows such as Aunn Zara, Humsafar, Kitni Girhain Baaki Hain, Maat, Meri Zaat Zarra-e-Benishan, Mere Qatil Mere Dildar, Mirat-ul-Uroos, Ullu Baraye Farokht Nahi, Akbari Asghari, Ashk, Azar Ki Ayegi Baraat, Badi Aapa, Pyarey Afzal, Bashar Momin, Behadd, Meray Dard Ko Jo Zuban Miley, Bilqees Kaur, Shehr-e-Zaat, Kadoorat, Mata-e-Jaan Hai Tu, Daagh, Daam, Durr-e-Shehwar, Dil-e-Muztar, Do Qadam Door Thay, Gohar-e-Nayab, Ishq Junoon Deewangi, Ishq Gumshuda, Jab We Wed, Main Abdul Qadir Hoon, Qaid-e-Tanhai, Jackson Heights, Kaash Main Teri Beti Na Hoti, and Zindagi Gulzar Hai. Zindagi Gulzar Hai became so popular that it was re-run one month after it ended its initial run in India. In September 2016,  however, Zindagi dropped all Pakistani shows from their line-up. In this way, Zindagi came to its end on television.

In July 2020, it was announced that Zindagi will make its comeback digitally and brand will come with its 5 original Web Series including Maan Jogi, Abdullah Pur Ka Devdas, Churails, Aik Jhooti Love Story and Dhoop Ki Deewar along with some old and new shows from Zindagi Library.

Blockbuster Pakistani Drama Series Baba Jani, Badi Aapa, Diyar-e-Dil, Mera Naam Yousuf Hai, Mann Mayal, Baaghi, Vasl, Behadd, O Rangreza, Bunty I Love You, Main Abdul Qadir Hoon, Durr-e-Shehwar, Numm, Ullu Baraye Farokht Nahi, Nanhi, Digest Writer, Shehr-e-Zaat, Suno Chanda and many others started to premiere from July 2020 on ZEE5 app with a premium membership.

Star India began airing of Mera Naam Yousuf Hai in 2015 on their channel Star Plus and thus becoming the channel's first ever Pakistani drama. The series was aired in India, UAE, USA, Ireland, UK, Austria, Europe, Canada and Latin America. Series received extravagant reception in viewership and ratings.

As per research study of Pakistani popular drama conducted by Indian scholar Jyoti Mehra, north Indian audience gets a sense of cultural familiarity which they can relate to while watching Pakistani drama. The study also gives credit to  the content of Pakistani dramas for its comparative realism with fast pace with shorter duration and limited number of episodes for its acceptability among Indian audience.

2022

An additional series called Mrs. and Mr. Shameem, starring Saba Qamar and Nauman Ejaz, debuted on the ZEE5 app and has drawn viewers from Pakistan as well as from other nations like India. or check pakistani dramas at one place.

title: Pyromellitic dianhydride

text:
Pyromellitic dianhydride (PMDA) is an organic compound with the formula C6H2(C2O3)2. It is the double carboxylic acid anhydride that is used in the preparation of polyimide polymers such as Kapton. It is a white, hygroscopic solid. It forms a hydrate.

Preparation
It is prepared by gas-phase oxidation of 1,2,4,5-tetramethylbenzene (or related tetrasubstituted benzene derivatives). An idealized equation is:
C6H2(CH3)4 + 6 O2 → C6H2(C2O3)2 + 6 H2O
In the laboratory, it can be prepared by dehydration of pyromellitic acid using acetic anhydride.

Reactions

PMDA is an electron-acceptor, forming a variety of charge-transfer complexes.  It reacts with amines to diimides, C6H2[(CO)2NR]2 which also have acceptor properties.

Applications
PMDA is used in PET bottle recycling as a chain extender. It increases the molecular weight of the polymer by linking-together alcohol and carboxylic acid groups formed by hydrolysis of the PET. This improves the rheological properties and overall quality of the recycled plastic.

Safety
Evidence suggests that PMDA causes occupational asthma.

title: Gartenfriedhof

text:
The Garden Cemetery () is a cemetery in Hanover, Germany. It was created in 1741 and is located by the  built in 1749. The cemetery and the church are both named after the garden parish outside the former parish city walls in front of Aegidien Gate. The cemetery, which contains a number of classicising grave markers from the first half of the nineteenth century, was closed in 1864 with the establishment of the Stadtfriedhof Engesohde. Today it forms a park in the middle of inner city Hanover. The graves of Charlotte Buff (inspiration of Goethe's "Lotte" in The Sorrows of Young Werther), the astronomer Caroline Herschel and the painter Johann Heinrich Ramberg are located here. The Gartenfriedhof lies on Marienstraße between Warmbüchenstraße and Arnswaldtstraße.

History

The names  and  date to the establishment of the parish and its cemetery in the Garden community in the eighteenth century. At the time, the modern ward of Südstadt lay outside the city walls and the Aegidien Gate and was used by the "Garden folk" () primarily for growing crops and vegetables for sale in the city of Hanover. Because of their simple homes, called Kates, these farmers were also known as "Garden Cossacks" (, punningly derived from cotter). In 1741, the City of Hanover established the "New Churchyard before the Aegidien Gate" () for these people. Between 1746 and 1749 a simple aisle church with a flèche was built by Johann Paul Heumann as welllater to be known as the . This was replaced by a new building constructed from 1887 to 1891 by the architect Rudolph Eberhard Hillebrand. At the beginning of the nineteenth century, the  was not just used by the Garden folk, but also by townspeople who settled in the nearby Aegidienneustadt from the middle of the eighteenth century: families of officials, soldiers, ministers, professors and councillors, who are commemorated on the stones of the  to this day. In their artistic devotion to classicising elements, these grave monuments represent the ethos of the bourgeois classknown in Hannöversch as the "Hübsche families. The grave monuments of this time, like urns, weeping jugs, the snake eating its own tail (symbolising eternity), the butterfly (transformation), and the extinguished torch are found throughout the  in numerous variations. There are also works of art, like the gravestone with acanthus flowers and palmettes designed by Georg Ludwig Friedrich Laves for Charlotte Buff or the four sphinxes pulling Kielmannsegge's stone sarcophagus.

Already in the nineteenth century, the Open Grave, subject of numerous horror stories, had developed into an early tourist attraction and a Hanover landmark.

Since the 1950s, the  has fallen into serious decay, especially the sandstone gravestones and wrought iron fences. Air pollution and also vandalism and the (ongoing) misuse of the  as a dog's toilet have contributed to this. Since the old fence was melted down during the Second World War, the former railing of the  bridge in the Hanoverian suburb of Vinnhorst was recycled as a fence for the cemetery in 1984. Community efforts by various cultural societies finally led to the protection and refurbishment of the space. As a result, a bronze plaque with a map was installed in the entrance area in the mid-1990s by the Hannover-Leineschloß Rotary club, which makes it possible to find the way to the most distinguished surviving tombs. The numbers on this table are the same as those in literature issued by the Parks and Gardens Office.

Renaissance Gartenfriedhof

The society

In 2011 the group "Renaissance Gartenfriedhof" was founded under the umbrella of the Heimatbund Niedersachsen, from which the charitable organisation "Renaissance Gartenfriedhof e.V." was formed in September 2011. Their goals are:
 Improvement of the historic space,
 Conservation and restoration of the grave monuments,
 Negotiation of sponsorship for individual grave plots,
 Cultural use of the Gartenfriedhof for commemoration of the deceased, staged readings, concerts, and dramatic performances,
 Exhibition and presentation of the treasures of the Gartenfriedhof and establishment as a tourist destination.

Current sponsorship
The sponsorship of the gravestone of the royal court painter Johann Heinrich Ramberg was taken up by his great-great-great-grandson Jürgen Behrens. The inauguration of the sponsorship occurred on 14 April 2012 in the Gartenfriedhof. Speakers included the historian Alheidis von Rohr, retired Superintendent Dieter Zinßer who is the chairman of Renaissance Gartenfriedhof e.V., and mayor Bernd Strauch. The occasion was celebrated musically with songs from Ramberg's time by Ja-Henrik Behnken (tenor).

Further sponsors were celebrated in the Gartenfriedhof at the beginning of their sponsorships on 10 December 2011. Speakers included Dieter Zinßer and mayor Hans Mönninghoff. It concerned the graves of the following:
 Heinrich Andreas Jakob Lutz ("Menschenfressergrab") – Susanne Debus
 Hansing – Daniel Gardemin
 Johann Christoph Salfeld – Loccum Abbey
 Heinrich Tramm – Henriettenstiftung

The sponsorship of the gravestone of Charlotte Henriette Caroline Kestner nee Buff was undertaken by the charity "Ahlers pro Arte". This was celebrated on 24 September 2011, with speakers including Christel Thomczyk who is a fourth generation descendant of Charlotte Kestner, Jan Ahlers on behalf of the society, Dieter Zinßer, Ingeborg Rupprecht and  Lord Mayor Stephan Weil. The celebration was enlivened by a brass band performance and short readings from Goethe's Dichtung und Wahrheit by Moritz Nikolaus Koch of Theater für Niedersachsen.

title: 2014 Washington wildfires

text:
The 2014 Washington wildfires were a series of 1,480 wildfires that burned  over the course of 2014. The first occurred primarily on the east side of the Cascade Range in Chelan and Okanogan counties.  The fires burned private land, state land, and within the Okanogan and Wenatchee National Forests, ultimately covering over . The first fire began on July 8 near the Entiat River.  On July 14 a lightning storm started dozens more fires across the eastern Cascade Range. Governor Jay Inslee declared a state of emergency, activating the Washington National Guard.  More lightning strikes later in the summer started additional fires.

Mills Canyon fire
The Mills Canyon fire burned , all within Chelan County. The fire was located south of the Entiat River and west of U.S. Route 97A and the Columbia River in the Entiat Mountains. It started on July 8 and the cause is under investigation.

July 14 lightning-strike fires

A number of fires were started by lightning strikes on July 14.

Carlton Complex

The Carlton Complex, covering , began as four separate lightning-caused fires on July 14 in the Methow River valley of Okanogan County: the Cougar Flat, French Creek, Gold Hike, and Stokes fires.  These fires merged and rapidly spread southeast on July 17, burning approximately 300 homes in and around the towns of Pateros and Malott as well as in more rural areas.  The communities of Brewster, Carlton, and Methow were also threatened by fire.  Power was lost to the communities of Twisp and Winthrop.  Road closures included State Route 20 east of Twisp towards Loup Loup Pass, State Route 153 between Twisp and Pateros, and U.S. Route 97 between Pateros and Brewster. Rain slowed the fire on July 24, allowing crews to reach 60% containment by July 26. A new fire started along State Route 20 south of Winthrop on August 1.

The Carlton Complex was the largest wildfire in Washington state's recorded history, surpassing the 1902 Yacolt Burn. One death, caused by a heart attack, has been blamed on the fire. Fire fighting efforts included nearly 3,000 personnel and numerous aircraft, including seven UH-60 Black Hawk helicopters from the Washington National Guard and a DC-10 Air Tanker.

Chiwaukum Creek fire
Located northwest of Leavenworth in the Chiwaukum Mountains, this fire burned .  It required the closure of U.S. Route 2 and the evacuation of nearly 900 homes, threatening the communities of Coles Corner, Winton, and Plain.  A pyrocumulus cloud could be seen rising above the fire from as far away as Seattle. Part of the Chiwaukum Creek Fire burned within the northeastern boundary of the Alpine Lakes Wilderness.

Duncan fire
Covering , the Duncan fire was located in the upper Entiat River drainage. It began on a ridge between the Entiat River and the North Fork Entiat River, eventually spreading east across the North Fork.

title: First Battle of Sha'ir

text:
The Battle of the Shaer gas field occurred in mid-July 2014 during the Syrian Civil War when  jihadists of the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIS) attacked and captured the field from government forces, which was followed by an Army counter-attack. It was one of the deadliest battles up-to-date in the war between fighters of the militant group and government troops.

Battle
On the evening of 16 July 2014, ISIS gathered a small force of 100 veteran militants equipped with small arms and pick-up trucks and launched an assault on the Shaer field, located in the desert region of Palmyra in Homs province. The field was defended by about 400 SAA troops and NDF militia, equipped with tanks and artillery and backed up by on-call air support from the nearby Shayrat Airbase. The attack started with a suicide bombing via VBIED, followed by assaults on Army checkpoints. After 12 hours of fighting, the militants captured all eight military checkpoints and secured the gas field. A total of 363 SAA troops and NDF militiamen present at the start of the attack were killed, wounded, or captured, with only 30 managing to escape to the nearby Hajjar field. Days later, it was reported that some of the military officers committed betrayal at the start of the attack. After the raid, ISIS posted online a video purportedly showing two rocket launchers and two tanks that they captured and the bodies of 50 people lying in an open desert space, many apparently executed.

It was determined 270 people on the government side, including 11 civilian workers, were killed, with at least 200 of them executed after being captured. Another 200–250 government fighters and workers remained captured or missing, while 21–27 ISIS militants were killed. Government supporters branded the killings of the POWs as a "massacre" and the pro-opposition Syrian Observatory for Human Rights condemned the killings with the SOHR director stating: "The Observatory condemns summary execution as a war crime, regardless of which side it is committed by in the Syrian conflict. Summary execution is a war crime — whether of civilians or combatants. They are prisoners of war and must not be executed."

Soon after, the military launched an attempt to recapture the gas field, which included air strikes. The next day, Syrian special forces joined the battle as government troops recaptured parts of the Shaer field. 11–20 soldiers and 30–40 ISIS fighters were killed during the day's clashes.

On 19 July, government aircraft withdrew from the field due to heavy militant fire from 23-mm heavy machine guns, while the fighting settled into hit-and-run attacks after government forces managed to recapture large areas of the gas field but were still trying to take control of the surrounding areas. Later, it was reported 60–65 soldiers were killed during the day, ether by friendly fire airstrikes or in fighting against ISIS.

On 20 July, government forces pushed ISIS out of the gas field and secured it, while fighting continued on its outskirts. According to another source, the Islamic State was still in control of the gas field, despite efforts of the Army. The next day, new government reinforcements arrived at Tiyas airbase, east of Homs city, while more fighting left six soldiers dead.

On 26 July, the Army secured the gas field, as well as the surrounding hills. The capture of the field came after ISIS forces retreated. According to the military, this was achieved due to a "precise operation in which dozens of terrorists were killed." The ISIS itself claimed they retreated after destroying the field's equipment and capturing at least 15 tanks and dozens of rockets which were used to guard the field, thus achieving their goal. An ISIS spokesman characterized the battle as a successful raid: "We pulled out because it was no longer good for us to stay. The goal was to get the tanks and rockets present at the field and we did. There is no point in staying there and becoming an easy target for the regime and its warplanes."

Aftermath

In late October, ISIS once again attacked the gas field and after three days of fighting captured the field, as well as the Hayyan Gas Company. only to be lost to the SAA on 6 November, when the Army retook the Shaer gas field and Syriatel Hill from ISIL.

title: Aristocracy of officials

text:
"Aristocracy of officials" and "civil service aristocracy" (Danish and Norwegian: embedsaristokratiet or embetsaristokratiet) are terms used by historians to denote the elite social class (aristocracy) of university-educated higher state officials in Denmark and Norway from the early modern period until the 19th century. Particularly in Norway, which unlike Denmark had no significant nobility from the 17th century and which formally abolished nobility in 1821, the aristocracy of officials filled the vacant position at the top of society at the local, regional and national levels. Vidar L. Haanes notes that "in Norway the aristocracy of officials occupied the position in society held by the nobility elsewhere in Europe". This social group, principally constituted by priests, lawyers and doctors, has with reference to the 19th century also been called "the thousand academic families" by the historian Jens Arup Seip, and they comprised less than one per thousand in the overall population. By the 19th century Norway is widely considered to have been a "Civil Servant State," reflecting the role of the civil servants as "the most enduring, consistent and visible elite."

History
A higher official (embedsmand) in Denmark-Norway was by definition an official who had been appointed directly by the King, as opposed to lower officials. They included not only higher central government officials, but also all priests of the state church, all judges, lawyers (until the mid 19th century), county governors, university professors, military commissioned officers and other groups. This class is also frequently referred to as the estate of the officials (embedsstanden or embedsmandsstanden with different spellings), although the officials did never formally constitute an estate of the realm in the legal sense (with the exception of the clergy, who until the 19th century de jure formed one of the two privileged estates, although the estates had de facto lost much of their importance with the introduction of absolute monarchy in 1660). The term "aristocracy of officials" appears to have entered usage in the early 19th century.

The "aristocracy of officials" was distinct from the nobility (adel). Some members of the class of officials were noble, while the vast majority were not. In Norway, "what little was left of the Norwegian nobility, which had constituted the elite in the country during the Middle Ages, quickly withered away after 1537." By 1600 Norway only had about a hundred men considered as nobles, and their number declined to only 30 by 1660. While most European countries were dominated by a noble class, in Norway "other social groups came to fill the vacant position at the top of society, burghers and officials."

Since the 16th century, offices in Denmark and Norway were also increasingly awarded based on merits and education, leading to the disappearance of the lower nobility as local elites, especially in Norway, as they were very often unable to afford costly university education abroad, and its gradual replacement as an elite by a class of university-educated higher officials, often of Danish or German origin. This development continued with the introduction of absolute and hereditary monarchy in 1660 in Denmark, which significantly weakened the political power of the still influential Danish nobility in favour of the King and the state administration and officials directly subordinate to the King. The kings from the 17th century and later periods tended to increasingly appoint non-nobles to state offices, to which nobles previously had had a monopoly, and noble status in the absolute monarchy came to be seen as mostly symbolic. Norway was different from Denmark in the fact that the Danish nobility still comprised a significant number and were wealthy and at least socially, if not politically, influential, while the nobility as a group was both politically, socially and economically insignificant, and increasingly so, in Norway. Nobility was formally abolished by the Norwegian Parliament in 1821, at which point the nobility comprised only a few families, virtually all of which were recently ennobled or foreign noble families rather than descendants of the original Norwegian nobility.

In most rural localities and districts in Norway, the local and regional clergy (such as parish priests and provosts) and the district judge were typically the foremost members of their communities from the 16–17th centuries and onwards, and in some cases, their offices were in practice semi-hereditary. Very often, the priest's estate was the largest and most prominent farm or estate in any given community. According to Hoffmann, "the priests were an important part of the aristocracy of officials. They were the representatives of the king in their districts." During the absolute monarchy, the priests were "an important instrument for royal power in the local communities. The priest was the representative of the state, both in the religious area and other areas of society."

Vidar L. Haanes notes:

Whereas most European nations at the time typically were dominated by a noble class, Norway during the 19th century is widely described as "the state of the officials" (), reflecting the role of the officials as the dominant social and political class in the state at the national, regional and local level. The term "state of the officials" was introduced by the historian Jens Arup Seip, who also refers to this group as an "aristocracy of officials." According to Seip, "the thousand academic families" completely dominated the state and particularly the civil service, the government and the parliament during the 19th century. The historian Øystein Rian describes the aristocracy of officials in Norway as "a nobility-resembling elite;" in many respects they occupied a similar position in society as the French nobles of the Robe. According to Seip, this class had in common a university education, Danish language (with Norwegian pronunciation), often a Danish or German-sounding family name, and sympathies for and in many cases family or other ties to Denmark. They comprised less than one per thousand in the overall population.

The civil servant class is also included in the broader term patriciate, together with the burghers in the cities.
