title: Hayter Reed

text:
Hayter Reed (May 26, 1849 – December 21, 1936) was a Canadian politician. He served on the 1st Council of the Northwest Territories.

Early life

Birth
Hayter Reed was born in L'Orignal, Canada West, on 26 May 1849. His father was George Decimus Hayter, an immigrant from Surrey, England, a registrar for the United Counties of Prescott and Russell, who had married Hayter's mother, Harriet McKay, a Canadian born. Hayter Reed was one of two children; he had a sister named Louisa Reed.

Family
After Harriet McKay left George Decimus Reed, she travelled to the United States to live with her family. Harriet McKay took Louisa with her and left Hayter Reed with George Decimus Reed's sister's family, the Drapers. Thereafter George Decimus Reed died and Harriet McKay firmly eschewed any personal correspondence with Hayter Reed.

Little else is known about George Decimus Reed, Harriet McKay, and Louisa Reed.

Education
With the support of his aunt and uncle, Hayter Reed attended Upper Canada College and the Model Grammar School in Toronto and thereafter attended the School of Military Instruction in Kingston, Canada West.

Career

Military service
Having graduated in 1865, Hayter Reed aligned himself with the military service of Canada. On 15 June 1866, he joined the 14th Battalion Volunteer Militia Rifles, Canada, and immediately thereafter he was appointed drill instructor. In 1868, he was elected adjutant and later captain with that corps and successfully assumed each position until his next commission in 1870 as a brigade major. In 1871, Reed was transferred to Fort Garry where he assumed garrison duties along with the troops stationed there and remained until its disbandment in 1878.

Legal service
During that time, he studied law and was subsequently called to the Manitoba Bar in 1871. In 1879, Hayter Reed served as a notary public in Prince Albert, North-West Territories.

Civil service
In April 1880, Hayter Reed was commissioned by the Department of the Interior as chief land guide in Winnipeg; he was responsible for the distribution of both immigrants and settlers with the aid of several agencies throughout Canada. Immediately thereafter, the Department of the Interior issued a request to fill several vacant positions within their Indian Affairs Branch and in February 1881, Reed was appointed Indian agent in Battleford, North-West Territories. In March 1881, Edgar Dewdney (then Commissioner of Indian Affairs) sought to settle the first inhabitants of Canada (First Nations, Inuit, and Métis peoples) on reserves. Accordingly, in 1882, Dewdney instructed Reed (then appointed to the North-West Territorial Council) minimize the expenditure of funds by (1) restricting the amount of food supplied to the reserves inhabited by Aboriginal peoples (flour, bacon or beef and excluding luxury goods such as tea, sugar and tobacco) and (2) demanding manual labour from the Aboriginal peoples as recompense. The primary aim of the Department of the Interior was to achieve agricultural discipline. Reed was expected to reduce costs and to ensure smooth farming operations by dint of supervision (of instructors and employees) over the First Nations reserves. In 1883, Reed was appointed secretary of the North-West Territorial Council and later appointed acting assistant Indian commissioner. In 1884, in Dewdney's absence, he acted as the administrator of the North-West Council. He was later appointed assistant Indian commissioner and moved to Regina, Assiniboia. In 1888, Reed was appointed commission of Indian affairs and after Dewdney's promotion to minister of the interior in 1893, Reed was appointed deputy superintendent general of Indian affairs (and it was his final commission).

He was deputy superintendent general of Indian affairs, until his dismissal by Interior Secretary Clifford Sifton in 1897.

Reed is responsible for purposely hindering flourishing Indigenous economic agricultural development in the plains through the Peasant Farming Policy, which aimed to push Indigenous peoples to the socioeconomic positions of peasants. Using his position as deputy superintendent general, Reed implemented a racist policy which restricted indigenous peoples from using modern farming equipment. As head of the Indian Affairs Department Reed was also instrumental in implementing an illegal pass system which restricted Indigenous people from leaving their reserves without a temporary certificate from a government agent. He later overruled the North-West Mounted Police, who wanted to abolish the policy, but acknowledged in a letter that year the pass system was not grounded in law. In 1882, Reed was appointed as a member of the North-West Territorial Council; during his time on the council he filled in for the lieutenant governor in his absence. He lived in Regina. He served on the council until 1888, and later worked for the Canadian Pacific Railway hotels. He died in 1936.

title: Jeremiah Travis

text:
Jeremiah Travis (January 21, 1830 – April 27, 1911) was a Canadian politician and attorney. He was a member of the 1st Council of the Northwest Territories in the 1880s, serving as stipendiary magistrate. He was an attorney and judge. Travis was born at Indiantown, a neighbourhood of present-day Saint John, New Brunswick. Travis graduated from Harvard University in 1866, and was awarded the law school's foremost prize for dissertations.

Stipendiary Magistrate at the Town of Calgary
Travis, a teetotaler and supporter of the temperance movement, was a controversial figure in Calgary after his appointment as stipendiary magistrate of the Northwest Territories at the Town of Calgary on July 30, 1885.

Travis was appalled by the open traffic of liquor, gambling and prostitution in Calgary despite legal prohibition in the Northwest Territories. There were several clashes between Travis and Mayor George Murdoch and other town councillors.  This culminated in the arrest and imprisonment of councillor Simon John Clarke to six month of hard labour, dismissal and imprisonment of Clerk of District Court Hugh Cayley, overturning the results of the January 1886 Calgary municipal election, removing Mayor Murdoch, barring him from contesting an election for two years and the appointment of a separate municipal council.

Travis was subsequently placed on paid leave while Justice Thomas Wardlaw Taylor was appointed by the federal government to investigate the situation. Justice Taylor's final report concluded "...considering the excited state of public feeling, and the attitude of hostility in which Mr. Travis and a large number of inhabitants of Calgary and neighbourhood stand to one another, and for which both parties are blameable, I can express no other opinion, than that the Government ought not to continue Mr. Travis in the office of Stipendiary Magistrate at the Town of Calgary."

Jeremiah Travis was suspended and the government waited for his official tenure to expire, after which he was pensioned off.

Later life
Travis died in Calgary on April 27, 1911.

title: PGA Tour 2K

text:
PGA Tour 2K (originally known as The Golf Club) is a series of golf sports simulation video games developed by HB Studios. The series is currently published by 2K; with Maximum Games publishing the second game in the series.

The premise of the series is to emulate the sport of golf, and more specifically, the PGA Tour.

History and Development
On May 22, 2018, jhymere  reached a license agreement with the PGA Tour to include six TPC courses and a PGA Tour career mode in The Golf Club 2019 video game. The agreement did not include rights to player likenesses, as the PGA Tour maintained an existing license agreement with EA Sports for its own PGA Tour game series. Although the series had been dormant since the release of Rory McIlroy PGA Tour in 2015, EA still claimed to have an "ongoing relationship" with the Tour at that time. Later that year, on August 28, 2018, 2K announced that it had acquired the publishing rights to The Golf Club series under its 2K Sports label.

In May 2020, 2K Sports announced that HB Studios was developing PGA Tour 2K21, a continuation of the series under a more extensive PGA Tour license and with several new features.

In March 2021, 2K fully acquired HB Studios, the rights to The Golf Club series IP, and the PGA Tour license. 2K also announced a partnership with Tiger Woods that includes rights for his name and likeness to appear exclusively in the PGA Tour 2K franchise, as well as any other golf games published by 2K during the partnership term.

title: José Mejías

text:
José Manuel 'Pepe' Mejías López (born 21 January 1959) is a Spanish retired footballer who played as an attacking midfielder.

His career was closely associated to Cádiz, for which he appeared in 304 games both major levels of Spanish football combined, scoring 66 goals.

In La Liga, Mejía also represented Zaragoza, Murcia and Rayo Vallecano, totalling 263 matches and 42 goals in the competition over ten seasons.

Club career
Born in Cádiz, Andalusia, Mejías spent most of his 19-year senior career with Cádiz CF. After starting out with the reserves he was loaned to neighbouring amateurs Jerez Industrial CF, returning in January 1978 and going on to remain with his main club a further eight full seasons; he made his La Liga debut on 9 April 1978, playing the full 90 minutes in a 2–4 home loss against RCD Español.

During his first spell, Mejías constantly alternated between the top division and the Segunda División, promoting three times to the former and being relegated to the latter in 1982 and 1984. In the 1982–83 campaign he scored a career-best 15 goals, helping the Gaditanos return to the top flight.

Mejías left Cádiz in the summer of 1986, joining fellow league side Real Zaragoza. He continued to compete at that level the following years, with Real Murcia (also started 1989–90 with the club in the second tier) and Rayo Vallecano; he appeared with the first in the 1986–87 European Cup Winners' Cup, netting once in seven games – the 2–0 away victory over Vitosha Sofia– to help the Aragonese team reach the semi-finals.

After two more seasons with Cádiz in division two, 33-year-old Mejías retired from professional football and moved to the lower leagues, retiring three years later.

Personal life
Mejías' younger brother, Salvador, was also a footballer. They coincided in several teams during their careers.

title: 2008 Manly Warringah Sea Eagles season

text:
The 2008 Manly Warringah Sea Eagles season was the 62nd in the club's history. Coached by Des Hasler and captained by Matt Orford, they competed in the National Rugby League's 2008 Telstra Premiership.

Season Summary
With the departure of hooker Michael Monaghan, many questioned whether the Manly Warringah Sea Eagles could be as competitive as in 2007 and losses in the first 2 rounds seemed to confirm this. Manly Warringah's first win came in round 3 at Brookvale with a 52–6 thrashing of the New Zealand Warriors and followed this up with a 20–2 shutout of South Sydney. In the round 5 grand final rematch against the Storm, Manly were soundly beaten 26–4 and doubt about their premiership credentials resurfaced. In Heritage Round (Rd 6) Manly Warringah had a season defining last gasp win over bitter rivals Parramatta, with Manly overcoming injuries before and during the game including one to winger Michael Bani who had to be stretchered off the ground after being knocked out.

Manly Warringah seemed to use this game as a springboard and entered a dangerous run of form, notching up numerous impressive wins over top teams such as a 30–12 win over the Brisbane Broncos at Suncorp Stadium, a 42–0 annihilation of the Sydney Roosters at Brookvale Oval and a 34–14 win over the Gold Coast Titans at Skilled Park in round 17. In round 18 Manly avenged their opening round loss to bitter rivals and eventual preliminary finalists Cronulla with a 34–6 hammering of them at Toyota Stadium. In round 19, Manly once again faced historical rivals Parramatta and in a repeat of round 6, Manly lost halfback Matt Orford and lock Luke Williamson before the game, and after only minutes five-eighth Jamie Lyon and prop Jason King were forced off the field with injury. Despite the setbacks and an early challenge from the Eels, Manly ran away with the game and finished 28–10 winners.

Some hiccups against the Roosters in round 20, the Storm in round 22 and the Rabbitohs in round 23 meant Manly finished the regular season tied first with Melbourne and Cronulla but second on points differential and Manly missed out on claiming their first minor premiership since 1997. In the qualifying final Manly faced 7th placed St. George at Brookvale. This game was club legend Steve Menzies' last game at Brookvale and he opened the scoring with an unusual charge down try in which after kicking ahead to himself and falling over, the ball bounced up and hit him in the head before he finally grounded it. Manly Warringah were easy 38–6 winners and departing Dragons centre Mark Gasnier was seen on the sidelines crying. After getting the week off, Manly faced the history-making New Zealand Warriors whose late season charge got them into 8th place where they became the first 8th placed team to advance past qualifying finals with a dramatic and rare defeat of the Storm at Olympic Park. Despite an early challenge, Manly Warringah crushed the Warriors 32–6 and showcased their trademark wall of defence and attacking flair. With the win, Manly Warringah qualified for their 17th grand final, where in a rematch of the 2007 decider, they would play the Melbourne Storm who had bounced back from the Warriors' loss with wins over the Brisbane Broncos and Cronulla Sharks.

The story was very different for the Sea Eagles this time around as they decimated the Storm 40–0 to win their seventh premiership in front of 80,388 at ANZ Stadium. It was Michael Monaghan's replacement, the previously unknown Matt Ballin who scored the first try of the match. The game was also notable for winger Michael Robertson's hat-trick and retiring legend Steve Menzies' try 10 minutes from full-time, which he scored after coming back onto the field to replace the injured Steve Matai. Manly prop forward Brent Kite was awarded the Clive Churchill Medal after a powerhouse display which included a classy try in the 58th minute. This is the largest winning margin in a grand final in rugby league history.

Grand Final

1st Half
The grand final's first quarter was played end to end with each side able to hold the other's attacking opportunities out. In the twenty-fourth minute the Sea Eagles' hooker Matt Ballin  at close-range ran from dummy-half and crashed over the try-line. After the video referee ruled the grounding successful, Matt Orford's conversion attempt hit the upright and missed so the score remained 4 - 0 with fifteen minutes of the first half remaining. Nine minutes later, the Sea Eagles were again on the attack and from ten metres out, moved the ball through the hands to the left wing where Michael Robertson dived over in the corner. The video referee was again called upon to examine the try, which was ruled to have been successfully scored just as Robertson's feet were being dragged onto the sideline by a defender. Orford's difficult kick went wide, so the Sea Eagles' lead remained at 8-0 with under five minutes of the half remaining which were played out with no further points scored.

2nd Half
In the forty-seventh minute, The Sea Eagles were within twenty metres of the Storm's try-line when Matt Orford at first receiver put a grubber kick into the left corner which bounced up perfectly for Michael Robertson racing through on the wing to grab and dive over for his second try. Kicking duty was handed to Steve Matai who coolly converted Robertson's try from next to the sideline, bringing his side's lead to 14–0. Three minutes later, and from a similar attacking position, the Sea Eagles kept the ball alive, a pass from Brett Stewart fifteen metres out arriving at the feet of Steve Matai who, with only one defender before him, picked it up and passed to Michael Robertson to dive over again in the same corner. Matai's second sideline conversion attempt missed, so the Sea Eagles were leading 18–0. In the fifty-seventh minute the Sea Eagles were again down in the Storm's half and on the last tackle decided to run the ball, which was kept alive and passed through seven sets of hands before going to a charging Brent Kite who stretched out of the tackle and slammed the ball down under the posts. Matai kicked the easy conversion and it was sea Eagles 24, Storm 0. Ten minutes later the Sea Eagles got another try when, from within the Storm's ten-metre line, they moved the ball out to David Williams on the right wing to dive over in the corner. The conversion attempt by Matai went wide so the Sea Eagles were leading 28–0. In the seventy-second minute the Sea Eagles ran the ball down toward the left corner with Robertson passing back in to Steve Menzies, who was playing in his 349th and final NRL match to crash over for a try, his 180th. Jamie Lyon took over the goal kicking and converted Menzies' try to give Manly a 34–0 lead. However, the finale was to come at the seventy-five-minute mark when from their forty-metre line, Sea Eagles second rower Glenn Hall burst into open space, passing back inside for Brett Stewart who was running through in support. Stewart was chased down just short of the try-line by Storm halfback Cooper Cronk, but he managed to flick the ball back without looking into the arms of Steven Bell to also get a try in his last game at the club. Jamie Lyon's simple conversion put the final score at 40–0.

It was at the time the fourth-biggest loss in the Storm's history.

The Manly Warringah Sea Eagles defeated the Melbourne Storm 40–0, scoring eight tries, four of which were converted. This is the highest Rugby League Grand Final margin in Australian history, eclipsing the 1975 NSWRFL season's Grand Final where Eastern Suburbs defeated St George, 38–0 at the Sydney Cricket Ground. It is also the first time that a team has been kept scoreless in a Grand Final since the 1978 NSWRL Grand Final Replay, where Cronulla lost to Manly 16–0. Sea Eages forward Brent Kite was named man-of-the-match and received the Clive Churchill Medal.

The 2008 Grand Final was the last match for Super League-bound Steve Menzies of Manly. Playing in this match brought his career games played to 349, equalling the current record from Terry Lamb.

title: Liga Uruguaya de Básquetbol

text:
The Liga Uruguaya de Básquetbol (abbreviated as LUB; English: Uruguayan Basketball League) is the most important professional club basketball league in Uruguay. It is organized by the Uruguayan Basketball Federation (FUBB). The Uruguayan Basketball League competition began in 2003. Before that time, the Uruguayan basketball championships were only local metropolitan, and no competitions brought together all the clubs in the country. Until the Liga Uruguaya de Básquetbol was created, the capital clubs participated in the Campeonato Uruguayo Federal de Básquetbol (Uruguayan Federal Basketball Championship), while the clubs of the rest of the country competed in regional tournaments. The Uruguayan Federal Basketball Championship was founded in 1915, making it among the oldest on the continent.

The first LUB competition had a dramatic end, with a win in the last second, that brought the Uruguayan League title to Defensor Sporting, whom also repeated in the 2009–10 season. Some of the other League champions were: Salto Uruguay in 2004, Trouville in 2005–06, Malvín in 2006–07 and 2010–11, Biguá in 2007–08 and 2008–09, Hebraica Macabi in 2011–12, and Aguada in 2012–13. So far, there are only two teams that have appeared in all of the league's seasons; they are: Defensor Sporting and Trouville.

Format

The LUB was previously played in three stages: Torneo  (Qualifying Tournament), Súper Liga (Super League) and play-off.

 In the Qualifying Tournament, teams played in three separate leagues (Capital, Coast and South) according to their origin. In the Capital League the clubs played each other twice, home and away, and the first eight of the table played in the Super League, while the last three were relegated to the Second Division, to participate in the Torneo Metropolitano. Elsewhere, both the Coastal League and South Central League played their separate tournaments, where the first two qualified for the Super League.
 The Super League was contested by eight teams from the Capital League, two from the South League, and two from the Coast League. They were divided into two groups of six teams in each group, and played each other in two legs, home and away. Group A comprised the 1st, 3rd, 5th, and 7th of the Capital League, the 1st of the South League and 2nd of the Coast League. While Group B consisted of the 2nd, 4th, 6th, and 8th of the Capital League, the 2nd of the South League and 1st of Coast League. The four best placed teams from each group qualified for the playoffs, using a system of a double table. The first table considered only the points earned in the second phase of the Super League, and the top four advanced to the playoffs. The remaining positions were filled by clubs in Montevideo, with the best record, after adding half of the total in the Qualifying Tournament, and the total obtained in the Super League. This system was established because teams outside the capital only had to play a maximum of ten games to reach the Super League, while those in Montevideo had to  play about thirty games.
 Finally, teams competed in the playoffs, with series being best of five. The first stage was the quarterfinals. The qualifiers were played as: A) 1st A vs. 4th B, B) 2nd A vs. 3rd B, C) 1st B vs. 4th A and D) 2nd B vs. 3rd A. The semifinal pairings were: A) Winner vs. D) Winner and B) Winner vs. C) Winner. The winners of these matches played in the finals, with the winner being crowned as the league champions of the LUB.
 The worst two teams of the league are demoted to the Second Division Torneo Metropolitano.

Participating teams
Defensor Sporting and Trouville are the teams with the most league appearances, having so far competed in every season of the LUB.

title: Jan Koum

text:
Jan Koum (; born Yan Borysovych Kum, , on February 24, 1976) is a Ukrainian-American billionaire businessman and computer programmer. He is the co-founder and former CEO of WhatsApp, a mobile messaging app which was acquired by Facebook in 2014 for US$19.3 billion. According to Forbes, he has an estimated net worth of US$15.2 billion as of October 2023, making him one of the richest people in the world. Koum was ranked 44th on the Forbes' list of richest Americans in 2023 with a net worth of $15.1 billion.

Early life
Yan Borysovych Koum was born in Kyiv, then in the Ukrainian SSR, on February 24, 1976. He grew up in Fastiv. In 1992, at the age of 16, he moved with his mother and grandmother to Mountain View, California. A social support program helped the family get a small two-bedroom apartment there. His father had intended to join the family later, but he never left Ukraine and died in 1997. Koum and his mother remained in touch with his father until his death. At first, his mother worked as a babysitter while he worked as a cleaner at a grocery store. His mother died in 2000 after a long battle with cancer.

Career
By the age of 18, Koum had become interested in computer programming. He enrolled at San Jose State University and simultaneously worked at Ernst & Young as a security tester. He also joined w00w00, a computer security think tank started in 1996, where he met future Napster creators Shawn Fanning and Jordan Ritter.

In 1997, Koum met Brian Acton while working at Ernst & Young. Later that year, he was hired by Yahoo! as an infrastructure engineer. He quit school shortly thereafter. Over the next nine years, Koum and Acton worked at Yahoo! together. In September 2007, they left and took a year off, traveling around South America and playing ultimate frisbee. Both applied to work at Facebook but were rejected.

In January 2009, Koum bought an iPhone and realized that the then seven-month-old App Store was about to spawn a whole new industry of apps. He visited his friend Alex Fishman, and they talked for hours about Koum's idea for an app. Koum almost immediately chose the name WhatsApp because it sounded like "what's up". A week later, on his 33rd birthday, he incorporated WhatsApp Inc. in California.

WhatsApp was initially unpopular, but its fortunes began to turn after Apple added push notification ability to apps in June 2009. Koum changed WhatsApp to "ping" users when they received a message, and soon afterward he and Fishman's Russian friends in the area began to use WhatsApp as a messaging tool, in place of SMS. The app gained a large user base, and Koum convinced Acton, then unemployed, to join the company. Koum granted Acton co-founder status after Acton managed to bring in $250,000 in seed funding.

On February 9, 2014, Zuckerberg asked Koum to have dinner at his home, and formally proposed Koum a deal to join the Facebook board. Ten days later Facebook announced that it was acquiring WhatsApp for US$19 billion. Over the first half of 2016, Koum sold more than $2.4 billion worth of Facebook stock, which was about half of his total holdings.

In April 2018, Koum announced that he was leaving WhatsApp and stepping down from Facebook's board of directors due to disputes with Facebook. It was originally thought that by leaving he was forfeiting his unvested stock, worth almost $1 billion. However, several months later it was discovered that he was still formally employed by Facebook, earning a reported $450 million in stock from the company through a method called "rest and vest".

Philanthropy
In 2014, Koum donated $1 million to The FreeBSD Foundation and close to $556 million to the Silicon Valley Community Foundation (SVCF). In 2016, The FreeBSD Foundation received another $500,000; further donations from the Koum Family Foundation included $750,000 in 2018 and $500,000 in 2019.

Koum also donated $2 million to AIPAC to support their involvement in the 2022 Democratic primaries.

Personal life
Koum is Jewish. He dislikes being called an entrepreneur and once tweeted, "Next person to call me an entrepreneur is getting punched in the face by my bodyguard." He feels that he is not an entrepreneur because entrepreneurs are motivated by the desire to make money, whereas he has said that he only wants to build useful products.

In February 1996, a restraining order was granted against Koum in state court in San Jose, California. An ex-girlfriend detailed incidents in which she said Koum verbally and physically threatened her. In October 2014, Koum said about the restraining order, "I am ashamed of the way I acted and ashamed that my behavior forced her to take legal action".

title: Second VA-155 (U.S. Navy)

text:
Attack Squadron 155 or VA-155 was an 'Attack Squadron of the U.S. Navy. It was established as Reserve Attack Squadron VA-71E in 1946, redesignated as VA-58A on 1 October 1948, and redesignated Reserve Composite Squadron VC-722 on 1 November 1949.

It was ultimately redesignated VA-155 on 4 February 1953, and disestablished on 30 September 1977. Its nickname was Silver Fox from the early 1960s onward. It was the second squadron to be named VA-155, the first VA-155 was disestablished on 30 November 1949, while a third VA-155 was established on 1 September 1987 and disestablished on 30 April 1993.

title: Langue nouvelle

text:
Langue nouvelle (French for 'new language') is a grammatical sketch for a proposed artificial international auxiliary language presented in 1765 by Joachim Faiguet de Villeneuve, a French economist, in the ninth volume of Diderot's encyclopedia.  It is likely that it influenced Volapük, Esperanto, and other language projects of the 19th century.

Linguistic properties

Phonology
The phonology is undescribed, except that an "n" may be placed between vowels to avoid hiatus.

The sound inventory can only be deduced from the examples given.  Vowels are a e i o ou u; donu 'will give' and donou 'gift' imply a distinction between ou and u, likely  and  respectively (as in French).  The vowel of the past tense is sometimes written  and sometimes , suggesting that the accent is merely a reminder that the letter is not silent, rather than marking a distinct vowel.  From sinta 'hundred', cognate with "cent", it would seem that there may be nasalized vowels, for in French the letters  represent a nasalized ; that is, sinta is presumably to be pronounced  or , not *.

Attested consonants are:
{|
|p||t||k
|-
|b||d||g
|-
|f||s||ch?
|-
|v||z||j
|-
|m||n||
|-
| ||l||r
|}

It is possible that k, q, c all represent .  The only illustrative words are ki, qui 'who, which' and co 'two', which show that k and qu are equivalent before i.  However, the lack of a numeral beginning with k, to contrast with co 'two', suggests that k and c are also equivalent, and that co is to be pronounced .  The lack of ch , as well as the few other consonants found in French, may merely be an accidental omission due to the small sample of vocabulary.

Verbs and pronouns
Verbs inflect only for tense and aspect:  Indicative present in -a, future -u, past (imparfait) -e (-é), present perfect (parfait) -i, past perfect -o.  The subjunctive is formed by adding -r to the indicative: -ar, -ur, -er, -ir, -or; the infinitive by adding -s: -as, -us, -es, -is, -os.  The present participle is in -ont.

The present doubles as the imperative and, with the help of the verb sa 'to be', as the passive.  The present subjunctive -ar may be used for the imperative as well.  Questions are formed by inverting the pronoun and the verb, as in French.

Person is indicated by pronouns: jo (I), to (you singular, thou), lo (he, she, it), no (we), vo (you plural), zo (they), and the reflexive so (oneself). Possessive forms are me, te, se, noti, voti, se. Demonstratives, soli (this) and sola (that), take plural -s (these, those). Who, what, which is ki.

Sofras 'to treat oneself' is given as an example of a reflexive verb; it is not clear if the initial s is a reflexive prefix, as in French s'offrir, or part of the root.  It is however invariable:  jo sofra (I treat myself), to sofra (you treat yourself), etc.

Nouns, prepositions, and adjectives
For nouns, there are no cases, genders, or articles.  The plural ends in -s, which unlike in French is pronounced.  Augmentatives take -le (-lé), diminutives -li:
manou a house, manoule (manoulé) a mansion, manouli a hut;
filo a boy, filole, filoli.

Deverbals end in -ou:
donou a gift (donas to give), vodou will (vodas to want), servou service (servas to serve)

Prepositions are used:
bi manou of the house, bu manou to the house, de manou from the house, po manou through the house

It would seem there is no distinction between adjective and adverb, and adjectives do not agree in number with the noun.

Numerals and digits
Each numeral starts with a different consonant, and are in alphabet order:

ba one, co two, de three, ga four, ji five, lu six, ma seven, ni eight, pa nine, vu ten, sinta hundred, mila thousand, milo million
Ordinals add -mu:  bamu first, comu second.

Numbers are formed by juxtaposing numerals:  Twenty-five is covuji (two-ten-five).

The consonants of the numerals one through nine are used as digits (in place of Arabic numerals), with o for zero, so "25" is written  and "100" is written .

title: Zoë von Schildenfeld

text:
Zoe von Schildenfeld, née Nicolits (1890 – 17 March 1981 in Salzburg) was an Austro-Hungarian, later Austrian author.

Youth and Education
Born into a wealthy family of Greek origin, Schildenfeld was sent to the best schools available for girls at that time, including the Stella Matutina Institute as well as schools in England and Switzerland. As a young girl already, she developed an interest in literature and started writing in prose and verse. With several of her works published, she applied to Vienna University, but, being female, was denied admittance, a common practice back then. She therefore studied literature and poetry with private instructors. Finally admitted to university during the Great war, she earned a master's degree and a doctorate in German and English literature.

Archduke Eugen
In 1912, Schildenfels was introduced to Archduke Eugen of Austria-Teschen, hereditary Grand Master of the Teutonic Knights at a literary circle in Innsbruck. She was later made a "Familiare", i.e. an associated member of the lay charity organisation of the order. When Eugen had to leave Austria due to Anti-Habsburg legislation after the collapse of the monarchy, Schildenberg became custodian of his private possessions and arranged for him to receive his rightfully earned income in spite of the restrictive Austrian currency regulations at that time.

When Archduke Eugen was permitted to return to Austria in 1934, it was Schildenfeld who oversaw his household. Following the Anschluß of Austria to Germany in 1938, Eugen, as an outspoken critic of the Nazi-movement was harassed by the GESTAPO and was put under de facto house arrest in a rented house at Hietzing. Only his status as a former Field-Marshal protected him from worse. With Schildenfeld at his side as confidante and lady companion, Eugen survived the Second World War and the flight to the Tyrol in 1945. The Archduke was held in high esteem by the commanders of the French occupation Force and when Schildenfeld arranged public celebrations in Innsbruck on occasion of his 90th birthday in 1953, she did so with official French support. Eugen died in 1954, in his will, he left her his private property. From 1955 on, she travelled extensively and had homes in Vienna, Salzburg, Strobl and St. Gilgen.

Personal life and Family
In 1914, on the eve of war, she married  1st Lieutenant Rudolph von Schildenfeld, a cavalry officer and later aide-de-camp to Field-Marshal Conrad von Hotzendorf, who was to survive the war, but died young in 1938 due to war wounds. They had no children.

title: Bill Farnan

text:
Bill Farnan (23 September 1851 – 15 March 1891) was Australia's first heavyweight boxing champion.

Family
The son of Patrick Farnan, and Mary Farnan, née McGuiness, William Francis Farnan was born at Kyneton, Victoria on 23 September 1851.

He married Bridget Winifred Kane (1853-1912). One of their sons, James Thomas Farnan (1875–1916) played VFL football with St Kilda, and was killed in action, while serving in France with the First AIF.

Boxing
He fought the West Indian Peter Jackson in the first Australian heavyweight contest using Marquis of Queensbury rules in Melbourne on saturday, 26 July 1884.

He hit Jackson hard "between wind and water" in the second round and continuing body hits drove Jackson down and out in the third round. A return bout was proposed; and, on the following Monday (28 July) the two men agreed to a return bout.

The return bout took place, in Sydney, on Saturday, 19 September 1884. Farnan was by far the better boxer on the day, with his superiority becoming more and more evident round by round; and, as Farnan seemed close to winning the fight by a knockout, in the sixth round, a large group of Jackson's supporters invaded the ring.

The ensuing mêlée was of such intensity, ferocity, and violence that it was an hour before some semblance of order was achieved. The bout was abandoned. A meeting of relevant officials was held on Tuesday, 23 September 1884, which declared Farnan and Jackson should meet on the Thursday (25 September) to arrange a re-match:
"It has been decided that Jackson and Farnan are to box again. During the day [viz., Tuesday, 23 September] it was not thought likely that Jackson will come to the scratch, as his seconds state that he wanted to give in after the second round. Farnan does not bear a mark, and is quite well." -- The Sportsman, 24 September 1884.

Death
Due to his deranged mental state, he was committed to the Kew Lunatic Asylum in early March 1891. He died at his home in South Melbourne, later that month, on 15 March 1891.

Australian National Boxing Hall of Fame
Bill was the 2008 Inductee for the Australian National Boxing Hall of Fame Pioneers category.

title: Switchyard reactor

text:
In an electric power transmission grid system, switchyard reactors are large inductors installed at substations to help stabilize the power system.

For transmission lines, the space between overhead line and ground forms a capacitor parallel to transmission line, which causes an increase in voltage as the distance increases.  To offset the capacitive effect of the transmission line and to regulate the voltage and reactive power of the power system, reactors are connected either at line terminals or at the middle, thereby improving the voltage profile of transmission line.

In large systems with many generators connected in parallel, it may be necessary to use a series reactor to prevent excessively large current flow during a short circuit; this protects transmission line conductors and switching apparatus from damage due to high currents and forces produced during a short circuit.

A shunt reactor is connected in parallel with a transmission line or other load. A series reactor is connected between a load and source.

Bus reactors
A bus reactor is an air core inductor, or oil filled inductor, connected between two buses or two sections of the same bus to limit the voltage transients on either bus. It is installed in a bus to maintain system voltage when the load of the bus changes. It adds Inductance to the system to offset the Capacitance of the line.

Line reactors
A line reactor is placed in line at the point of use or just after a transformer to maintain a stable amperage to the user. When a line is disconnected from the system, the line reactor is also disconnected from the system. Line reactors are often used to compensate line capacitance, mitigate voltage transients due to switching, and to limit fault currents, especially in case of underground transmission lines.

A bus reactor and a line reactor are interchangeable as long as they are rated for the same voltage which is dependent upon substation's physical layout, and bus configuration.

Shunt reactors
Shunt reactors are used in power systems to counteract the effect of the line parasitic capacitance, thereby stabilizing the system voltage within acceptable limits. The utility of shunt reactors for voltage control on lightly-loaded transmission lines was examined in a 1926 paper presented at the AIEE by Edith Clarke. For short lines, we can basically ignore the impact of capacitive current from a voltage regulation point of view, but medium and long lines can have voltages at their receiving end much higher than the sending end, thus creating issues such as over-fluxing of power transformers and over stressing of line insulators. Under light-load conditions, the line produces more VARs, resulting in receiving end voltage being higher than sending end voltage. In order to consume the excess VARs when system is lightly loaded, an inductor is added to the system.

Controlled shunt reactors

A controlled shunt reactor (CSR) is a variable inductance, smoothly regulated by magnetic biasing of ferromagnetic elements of magnetic circuit. The magnetic system of a CSR single phase consists of two cores. Each core is equipped with control and power windings. In case of regulated DC voltage source connection to the control windings, biasing flow is increasing and directed to different sides in the adjacent cores. This resulted in saturation of CSR cores at relevant half-period of the current. Core saturation is resulted in initiation and increase of the current in the power winding due to non-linear characteristics of the magnetic core. Change in biasing current value leads to the power winding current change, due to which a stepless variation of voltage levels in CSR connection point as well as the value of reactive power consumed by the reactor is ensured.

Series reactors
Series reactors are used as current limiting reactors to increase the impedance of a system. They are also used for neutral earthing. Such reactors are also used to limit the starting currents of synchronous electric motors and to compensate reactive power in order to improve the transmission capacity of power lines.

title: Camp Goodwin

text:
Camp Goodwin, and Fort Goodwin, a historical locale, at an elevation of 2648 feet, located in Graham County, Arizona.

History

Camp Goodwin, then Fort Goodwin, was constructed in June 1864 by the California Volunteers, of the Union Army in Arizona Territory for a base for prosecuting the 1861-1872 Apache War and protecting settlers in the Upper Gila River region.  It was named for Arizona's first territorial governor, John N. Goodwin.  The adobe buildings it was constructed with began to crumble in a few years due to poor construction.  Additionally the camp was plagued by malaria from mosquitoes in the cienega fed by the nearby spring from which the fort obtained its water.  Called Camp Goodwin again from 1866, the camp was abandoned by the Army in March, 1871 due to the illness caused by malaria.

The camp was subsequently used as a subagency of the San Carlos Apache Indian Reservation until about 1884.

Today the site is located on farmland not far from the ghost town of Geronimo.  Nothing remains of the post, the only physical marker is a Bureau of Land Management survey marker which indicates the original site of its flagpole.

Authors of piyyut are known as paytanim (singular: paytan). Piyyut is Jewish liturgical poetry, in Hebrew or occasionally Aramaic.

The earliest authors of piyyut did not sign their names in acrostics, nor do manuscripts preserve their names. The earliest paytan whose name is known is Yosé ben Yosé, usually dated to fifth-century Palestine; he did not sign his name in his work, but copyists of manuscripts preserved it along with his work. Starting in the sixth century, paytanim began to sign their work.

title: Kreyos

text:
Kreyos was a consumer electronics company based in San Francisco, California. The company intended to develop digital wearable devices fitted for people with active lifestyles. The Kreyos Meteor, the company's first product, started as a crowd funding campaign from Indiegogo. Although the campaign was funded to a bit more than fifteen times its original goal, the resulting product was poorly received, many units were not delivered or were defective, and the company was closed in 2014.

History

Initially a crowd funded project from Indiegogo, Kreyos raised $1.5 Million for the Meteor, surpassing the original goal of $100,000. The duration of bidding lasted for nearly three months - from June 23 to August 12, 2013. Their next big update came on 10/08/2013 when they provided footage of an engineer test. The first delay was announced on 11/13/2013. Kreyos stated during their pilot production run they discovered the position of the speaker holes in the Meteor case muffled the speaker and it wasn't their idea of how to put out the best product they can develop. The solution they implement to solve this problem also increase the overall volume by 25%. As a result, this changed the delivery date from January 2014 to mid February 2014.

On November 22, 2013 Kreyos apologized for the first time about the lack of communication. On 12/08/2013 they announced their presence at CES 2014. On December 24, 2013 Kreyos sent out an update talking about implementing and testing the changes to improve the speaker, submission of the latest Meteor for official FCC, CE, and IC testing and providing dates for the next the production run 6 days later. On Jan 10th of 2014 a video was sent out showing the functionality of the watch with Siri in attempt to calm backers.

On January 22 the second delay came pushing back the delivery date to April. This time the delay was cause because of an “echoing” issue identified in the late stages of hardware testing. On Jan 28th they announced a solution to the problem along with a commitment to be more transparent to backers in regards to all things related to development and making sure they updated backers as often as possible moving forward. After Further testing on Feb 11th they announced the problem was solved and that the entire senior management team was overseeing activity related to this fix in our production facilities and were manufacturing the new molds to fix the existing hardware. In an attempt to thank those who didn't ask for a refund Kreyos offered a limited edition belt clip and a 40% discount on the Meteor 2 for all backers.

Kreyos' next update, on March 21 contained a video showing the watch interacting with Google Now on the Android platform along with images of the UI for the iPhone. In April they also announce the special color of the belt clip which backers voted on. The color was Grey. At the end of April came another delay, at not fault of Kreyos, which moved the delivery date back to the end of May. This time the delay was a result of a delay in the delivery of new speaker components. Then on May 16 the day after the next production run was supposed to start Kreyos announced a destructive storm hit their production facilities in Guangdong province and manufacturing has stalled due to flooding in the factory.

By the end of May, Kreyos said they were shipping the first 5,000 units to the United States to be distributed to backers. Later Kreyos said that the units would be sent to backer according to when they backed the Indiegogo. This meant that any backers before June or July 2013 had a chance at finally receiving the watch. They stated that the vessel should take 3 to 4 weeks to transport the unit from the manufacture to the United States. Kreyos addressed and apologized for their iOS app, which wasn't 100% ready, saying they submitted the app in advance since there's been some situations where the app isn't approved for a long period of time. Orders started to be received by backers from the beginning of August 2014.

As of August 17, 2014 the Android app and iOS app are still having issues - everything from disconnecting from the phone to not syncing at all. The Windows Phone app has yet to be released. This has been extremely bothersome to backers as all functionality other than basic watch functions are dependent on app for it to work properly.

Closure

On the 15th of September 2014, Steve Tan (owner of the company) issued a statement outlining the reasons for the project's failure and that the company would close. Tan describes Kreyos as having only marketing and sales experience, and that therefore the technical work on the project and most of the funding had been outsourced to an acquaintance in the ODM business. Said ODM then failed to meet project goals, and Kreyos had neither the experience nor finances to resolve the problems. Tan alleges that this was a deliberate effort to defraud Kreyos and use its resources to create a turnkey smartwatch solution for other companies. The statement explained that the company had no funds left to issue further refunds, that they were unable to persuade the ODM to address software and firmware issues, and that they would be selling whatever components and tooling they could recover from the ODM before permanently closing the business. The remaining software was released under an open source licence.

Kreyos Meteor

The Kreyos Meteor is a smart watch created and developed by Kreyos and is considered as its flagship product.

Features

The Meteor promised voice and gesture controls for sending messages and emails, making calls, and changing the music on your phone; however, none of these promised features materialized in the final product. It displays all options and information through an ultra low energy 1.26-inch memory LCD Screen. It has a backlight and a vibrating motor, along with an alarm that can be set through the device itself. Sensors include a three-axis gyrometer, falling short of the alleged six-axis accelerometer and a gyrometer. for connectivity purposes, the Meteor sometimes uses a Bluetooth 4.0 low energy and is compatible to Android, iOS and Windows Phone 8 devices. The watch also offers ANT+ connectivity, allowing it to connect to a cyclocomputer and a heart rate monitor, along with other such peripheral technology. Other missing features include an app-programmable gesture control system, Siri, Google Now and voice command support, a 'Find your Phone' option as well as cloud storage for keeping fitness information and other data.

The Meteor has a built-in microphone and low-quality speaker, specific tracking modes for cycling and running, and a number of other built-in activity trackers. The unit is detachable from the watchband, and can be transferred to a lanyard or a belt clip.

Reception

Pre-release discussions were positive. However numerous delays, technical issues, and unmet goals meant that the project was very poorly received in practice.

The latest criticism on the Meteor is the recent delay in shipping due to an echoing issue that was discovered in a recent test. With the shipping date moved to April, there has been a collective sense of frustration among the early buyers and backers of the watch. Despite this, the team assures that they foresee no more delays in the future as recent testing suggested that the fix they identified does address the issue permanently. The Meteor was then set to be released in April 2014. After a further delay, the Meteor was set to be delivered to the first 5,000 backers by the end of July. Instead, the backers were once again made to wait, while pre-orders close to the distribution center were completed first.

Further criticism is the fact that Kreyos failed to release an App for the watch despite the fact that some devices had been delivered. They claimed to be wanting to release the app at the same time to ensure customers all had the same version, maintaining the App is currently with the App store just waiting for the go ahead from themselves. Social media is rife with doubt and unrest at Kreyos's lack of action.

Kreyos has also recently come under scrutiny from its backers for posting on its Facebook page that the watch was only waterproof up to 1 meter depth for 30 minutes, and also that the watch has a 3-axis gyroscope. This is contrary to the information originally given about the watch and also (as of July 27) still on their website that states the watch contains a 6-axis gyroscope as well as being waterproof up to 5 meters. Kreyos have also been under heavy fire for their lack of information and consistent vague statements on delays and deadlines. Additionally, Kreyos has responded to negative feedback by deleting the comments and links to the Better Business Bureau left on their social networks. In a statement announcing the closure of the company, Steve Tan stated that the watch cannot be considered at all waterproof in its current state.

The 2014 Red Bull Air Race World Championship was the ninth season of Red Bull Air Race World Championship, and the first since 2010.

In his seventh season in the series, British pilot Nigel Lamb became the champion for the first time, with consistent finishing being the key to his championship success. After starting the season slowly with just five points from the opening two events, Lamb won his first Air Race competition at Putrajaya Lake in Malaysia, before reeling off five consecutive second-place finishes. These results were good enough for him to surpass former champions Hannes Arch and Paul Bonhomme in the standings; Lamb ultimately finished nine points clear of Arch, with Bonhomme a further two points in arrears. Both pilots won two races during the season, as Arch won at Rovinj, Croatia and at Gdynia in Poland, while Bonhomme won in Abu Dhabi and his home event, at Ascot Racecourse. Nicolas Ivanoff was another two-time event winner, winning at Texas Motor Speedway and the Red Bull Ring, with Pete McLeod winning the remaining event, at Las Vegas Motor Speedway.

The series also introduced a Challenger Cup for the 2014 season, for young pilots to develop their skills. Each pilot entered at least three races in order to accrue points towards the Cup rankings, with the top six pilots after the Las Vegas event being invited to a winner-takes-all event at the Red Bull Ring. Petr Kopfstein won the race by 1.1 seconds over Halim Othman, to take the inaugural title.

Starting in 2014 it was sanctioned by the Fédération Aéronautique Internationale (FAI) as an official motorsport, meaning provision of FAI medals especially designed for the Red Bull Air Race, the inclusion of all races in the FAI Events Calendar, and the official approval by the FAI of the race Rules & Regulations. Also, the FAI provided a safety delegate who attended all events to supervise safety aspects.
