title: Wat Phan Lao

text:
Wat Phan Lao () is a ruined 16th century temple in the Wiang Kum Kam archaeological area near Chiang Mai in northern Thailand.

Name
No information exists about the temple in historical records, so the name used is that which is generally used by and may have been preserved by local people.

Location
In modern terms, the location is within the Hnong Phuoung Sub District, Saraphee District, Chiang Mai.

Historically, the location was outside of the walls of the former city of Wiang Kum Kam and to the north of the former course of the Ping River, making it something of a physical outlier within the archaeological group.

Excavations
The temple was excavated from 2002 to 2003, revealing a group of large structures with a complex layout that is thought to have derived from additions to the site over time. The structures were only 50cm beneath the surface as prior to excavation the site had been compromised by bulldozers, road building and encroachment by housing. Artifacts uncovered a gilt lacquer bronze Buddha image of 27.2cm height that is considered to be 16th century Chiang Saen art, spiral and floral stucco motifs, a tuo ngao (northern Thai dialect) stair balustrade, fragments of roof tiles and layers of the receding circular moldings of a chedi. The evidence suggests that the extensive foundations were religious buildings.

The foundations are divided into two groups, the east–west axis group and the northeast–southwest axis group.

Importance
It is assumed that Wat Phan Lao was an important temple in use during the 16th century.

title: Ardeshar Khabardar

text:
Ardeshar Faramji Khabardar (), also spelled Ardeshir Pharamji Khabardar, was a Parsi poet from India. He wrote mainly in Gujarati but also in English and Marathi. He wrote under the pen name Adal. Living in Bombay and Madras, he wrote in different styles of poetry and published around forty books. He wrote sonnets about his religion Zoroastrianism also.

Life

Ardeshar was born in a Parsi family in Daman on 6 November 1881. He had primary education in Daman and secondary education from New Bharda Highschool, Bombay. He started a motorcycle accessories business in Madras in 1909. He presided over Gujarati Sahitya Parishad in 1941. He died in Madras on 30 July 1953.

Works

He wrote under several pen names, chiefly under Adal.  His other pen names are Motalal, Khojo Bhagat, Kshemanand Bhatt, Narkesarirao, Shabhunath, Shridhar, Sheshadri, Lakha Bhagat, Valkalrai Thatthakhor and Hunnarsinh Mehta. He wrote around forty books in Gujarati and two in English.

His Gujarati poem, Jya Jya Vase Ek Gujarati, Tya Tya Sadakal Gujarat (Wherever a Gujarati resides, there forever is Gujarat) depicts Gujarati ethnic pride and is widely popular in Gujarat.

He wrote in modern Gujarati instead of Parsi Gujarati. His first work was the poetry collection Kavyarasika, which followed the style of Dalpatram, in 1901. Vilasika, published in 1905, followed the style of Narsinhrao Divetia. Prakashika (1908) is styled as the works of Kalapi and Kant. Bharat no Tankar (1909) and Rashtrika (1940) are collections of patriotic songs. He parodied and satirised Gujarat no Tapasvi and Brahmadiksha of Nanalal as Prabhat no Tapasvi and Kutkutdiksha (1920) under the pen name Motalal. Sandeshika (1925) includes patriotic songs. His Kalika (1926) is a love song in blank verse style. Bhajanika (1928), Darshanika (1931) and Kalyanika (1940) are collections of devotional songs. Rasachandrika (1929, 1941) is a collection of rasa songs in the style of Nanalal and Botadkar. Shriji Iranshah no Pawado depicts the history of Zorostrianism and Gandhi Bapu no Pawado praises Mahatma Gandhi; both are poetry in Marathi powada style. Gandhi Bapu (1948) also has thirty-one songs dedicated to Gandhi. His last collection, Kirtanika, had seventy-five kirtan songs. He also published Malabari na Kavyaratno, an interpretation of poems of Behramji Malabari in 1913.

His only English-language poetry collection The Silken Tassel (1918) had fifty-nine poems. He wrote New light on the Gathas of holy Zarathushtra and Zarathushtra: 101 sonnets depicting the life and teaching of Zoroaster.

He started writing a play titled Manuraj or Vishwanatika styled on Goethe's Faust and Nanalal's free verse in 1936 but never completed or published.

title: Lo Man-wai

text:
Lo Man-wai CBE (1895 – 5 April 1985) was a prominent lawyer and politician in Hong Kong who served as a member of the Executive Council and Legislative Council of Hong Kong.

Biography
Lo Man-wai was born in 1895 in Hong Kong. His father was the wealthy Hong Kong merchant and compradore of Jardine, Matheson & Co., Lo Cheung-shiu. His brother, Lo Man-kam, was also a prominent lawyer who served on the Executive and Legislative Councils of Hong Kong prior to the 1950s.

Man-wai was educated at Queen's College. After graduating, he went to England to study law along with his brother. In 1916, they returned to Hong Kong and founded the law firm Lo and Lo.

He had three sons and a daughter. His second son, Kenneth Lo Tak-cheung, later joined Lo and Lo and became a member of the Urban Council.

During the Canton–Hong Kong strike, Lo and his brother Lo Man-kam joined the Hong Kong Volunteer Defence Corps, and more Hong Kong Chinese followed.

Man-wai was appointed a Justice of the Peace in 1926 and a member of the Urban Council in 1940. After the war, he succeeded Lo Man-kam's seat on the Legislative Council in 1950 and the Executive Council in 1959. For his services, he was named an Officer and Commander of the Order of the British Empire in 1950 and 1955, respectively.

He was a director of many large public companies, including Hongkong Tramways, Star Ferry, China Light and Power Company, Hongkong and Kowloon Wharf and Godown Company, and Commercial Radio Hong Kong.

A skilled tennis player, he was known as the "Grand Old Man of Hong Kong Tennis." With his brother Lo Man-kam, he won the Men's Doubles title at the 1920 Hong Kong National Grass Court Championships, as well as the singles title in 1929. From 1920 to 1922, he was runner-up to Ng Sze-kwong three years in a row in Men's Singles at the Hong Kong National Grass Court Championships. With his sister Enid, he won the Mixed Doubles title at the Hong Kong Hardcourt Championships in 1928, 1930 and 1932, thus becoming the only player in Hong Kong to have won a local doubles title with both his brother and sister.

Lo Man-wai died on 5 April 1985. His funeral took place at the Hong Kong Funeral Home and his body was cremated at Cape Collinson Crematorium on 11 April.

title: NWSL Playoffs

text:
The National Women's Soccer League Playoffs (or NWSL Playoffs) are a single-elimination tournament among six teams in the National Women's Soccer League (NWSL) of the United States, deciding the winner of the NWSL Championship.

Since playoff games cannot end in draws, they are broken by two consecutive 15-minute extra time periods, followed by penalty shoot-outs of best-of-five rounds with additional rounds as required.

Format
Since the 2021 season, the top six teams in the final standings at the end of the regular season qualify for the playoffs and are seeded in order of their record. The teams with the best season record (the NWSL Shield winner) and the second-best record receive a first-round bye, and the better-seeded team hosts each match until the championship, which was also hosted by the higher seed in the 2013 and 2014 seasons but has been hosted at a predetermined site since. Prior to the 2021 season, only the top four teams qualified for the playoffs.

Tiebreakers
The initial determining factor for a team's position in the standings is most points earned, with three points earned for a win, one point for a draw, and zero points for a loss. Since the 2022 season, if at least two teams tie in point total, when determining rank and playoff qualification and seeding, the NWSL uses the following tiebreaker rules, going down the list until all teams are ranked.

 Overall goal difference
 Most total wins (regular season only)
 Most goals scored (regular season only)
 Head-to-head results (total points accumulated)
 Head-to-head most goals scored
 Fewest disciplinary points accumulated:
 First yellow card: -1 point
 Indirect red card (second yellow card): -3 points
 Direct red card: -4 points
 Yellow card and direct red card: -5 points
 Only one of the above point totals shall be applied to a player in a single game.
 Coin flip (2 teams)/Drawing of lots (3+ teams)

If two clubs remain tied after another club with the same number of points advances during any step, the tie breaker reverts to step 1 of the two-club format.

Prior to the 2022 season, the first tiebreaker was head-to-head record.

title: Harker Hall

text:
Harker Hall, also known as the Chemical Laboratory, is a historic building on the campus of the University of Illinois at Urbana–Champaign in Urbana, Illinois. Built in 1877, the building originally served as the university's chemical laboratory. Architect Nathan Clifford Ricker designed the Second Empire building, which originally featured a mansard roof. In 1896, a lightning strike set the roof on fire, and architect James White replaced it with a hip roof. The building was named Harker Hall in honor of Oliver A. Harker, who served as dean of the university's law school from 1903 to 1916. Until it stopped hosting classes, the hall was the oldest classroom building at the university.

The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places on November 19, 1986.

title: Donauried

text:
The Donauried is a river landscape around the Danube in western Bavaria between Neu-Ulm and Donauwörth. Water meadow woods dominate the scene from Ulm to Lauingen. In addition, the man-made reservoirs near Faimingen, the Swabian Donaumoos between Ulm and Gundelfingen as well as the Gundelfingen park landscape in this wetland region of the Danube are of international importance under to the Ramsar Convention, the international treaty on wetlands. Birds, amphibians, dragonflies, damselflies, grasshoppers, crickets and butterflies have their habitats in the fens. Several species of plant native to the Donauried are classified as endangered on the IUCN Red List and reserves like the Apfelwörth or Eastern Donauried Bird Reserve have been established to protect the variety of species. A particular success in recent years has been the recolonisation by the white stork (Offingen, Gundelfingen, Lauingen, Höchstädt).

The former boggy plain is relatively sparsely settled, but all the more intensively used by mankind. This started with the channelization of the river between 1806 and 1867 (the Danube correction or Donaukorrektur). Its aim was the reclamation of grassland for agriculture. Dykes were later erected to prevent flooding. Between 1961 and 1984 weirs were built to provide hydropower.

The Donauried contains valuable gravel deposits of the highest quality. Gravel extraction has resulted in about 700 flooded gravel pits in the region which, in summer, attract visiting bathers from other nearbouring regions.

As a result of the rapid drainage of ground and surface water into the Danube and the river's cutting into the riverbed the groundwater level threatens to sink further. On the one hand this will enable the economic use of land. On the other hand, however, it threatens the natural landscape and the variety of species in the Donauried.

The Landeswasserversorgung, a long-distance water supplier in Baden-Württemberg, draws some of its drinking water supply from the groundwater of the Donauried.

Tri Angle's sound was heavily debated in the music press, with The Wire noting it as being "one of the hardest labels to pin down in contemporary music". Starting in the middle of the 2010s, artists from the label began collaborating with, and creatively partnering with, mainstream artists including Kanye West, Björk, Disclosure, A$AP Rocky, FKA Twigs, Diplo, Vince Staples, Atticus Ross, Tinashe, Massive Attack and The Weeknd. Björk in particular was a strong supporter of the label, crediting Robin Carolan with having helped her finish her eighth studio album Vulnicura, as well as collaborating with Tri Angle on a number of other occasions. In 2017, Carolan was credited on Utopia, Björk's ninth studio album, as 'the fifth ear'.

Shutdown
On April 24, 2020, Carolan released a statement via Twitter announcing that Tri Angle was officially defunct. He went on to compose the score (alongside Sebastian Gainsborough) for Robert Eggers's 2022 film The Northman.

title: Kenneth Megill

text:
Kenneth Megill is an American philosopher, trade unionist, political activist, and records and knowledge manager.

Philosopher
Megill's primary philosophical contribution is the development of a democratic theory in the tradition of Democratic Marxism.  Megill defined democracy as a political and social order where people control where they live and work.

In 1961-1962 he studied with Karl-Otto Apel who introduced him to the works of Karl Marx, Charles Sanders Peirce, Martin Heidegger, and Hans-Georg Gadamer. In 1964-1965 he studied at the Free University of Berlin where he worked with manuscripts by Marx that had only recently been made available.  The Free University was one of the main scenes of the German student movement of 1968. The events of the 1968 movement provided the impulse for more openness, equality, and democracy in German society.  Megill participated in several seminars that were attended by students who went on to be active in the student movement in Germany and France in 1968. In addition to attending seminars in West Berlin, he commuted through the Berlin Wall and was enrolled at the Humboldt University of Berlin in an advanced graduate seminar in Dialectical Materialism taught by the head of the philosophy department in the German Democratic Republic. Megill received his masters (1964) and doctoral (1966) degrees with a dissertation on "The Community as a Democratic Principle in Marx's Philosophy" at Yale University. Richard Bernstein was his adviser.

During 1968 he was a researcher at the Institute of Philosophy at the Hungarian Academy of Sciences organized by George Markus, an associate of the Hungarian philosopher and political leader Georg Lukacs.  Megill met regularly with Lukacs and the members of what became known as the Budapest School. He visited philosophers and political activists in Poland and Czechoslovakia and attended the Korcula Summer School sponsored by the Praxis Group in Yugoslavia. which was the major gathering for European Democratic Marxists from both East and West Europe.  The theme of the conference, especially appropriate in 1968, was "Marx and Revolution". During the conference, the Soviet Union invaded Czechoslovakia and brought an end to the Prague Spring and began a period of repression that led to the Budapest School losing their positions.

Megill published more than a dozen articles in philosophical academic journals. In 1970 Free Press/Macmillan published his book "The New Democratic Theory" in which he argued that liberal democracy and dialectical materialism had both failed and that a new theory of democracy was needed that focused on control of the places by those who lived and worked there.

When information managers began to use the term knowledge management. Megill went back to his philosophical roots where epistemology, the theory of knowledge, is a major field. He used his philosophical work, combined with his fifteen years as a practicing information manager, to write the major book, "Thinking for a Living", in knowledge management theory.

Forty years after the publication of "The Community as a Democratic Principle in Marx's Philosophy," which summarized the research he did for his doctoral dissertation, the Central Compilation and Translation Bureau (CCTB) of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China published a translation of the article in a leading philosophical journal.  He was subsequently invited by the CCTB to visit the Bureau for discussions and to present lectures at universities in Beijing on Lukacs and the Budapest School.

University of Florida professor
In 1966, after receiving his PhD at the age of 26 from Yale University, Megill was hired as an assistant professor of philosophy, whose specialty was Marxism, by the University of Florida. and quickly became involved in the civil rights and anti-war movements.

During his years as a faculty member, Megill was controversial, outspoken, and was covered widely in the press. Megill was awarded an "outstanding professor" award from the College of Arts and Sciences, but also said, at the same time, that "at the proper time faculty members and radical students should combine to take over the university".

Megill also called for the formation of "a strong teachers' union". (At the time, collective bargaining by public employees in Florida was prohibited by law.) Florida Representative Tom Slade, backed by other legislators, released to the news media a letter calling for Megill to be fired; there were student demonstrations supporting Megill. After an investigation. President Stephen C. O'Connell, a former Florida Supreme Court justice who had been appointed president of the university to "clean out" the radicals, said there was no justification and refused to do so.

In 1972, O'Connell overruled the recommendations of the Philosophy Department, the College of Arts and Sciences, and his own hearing examiner that Megill be awarded tenure, which meant Megill would be terminated when his contract expired in 1973 (as in fact happened). Widespread demonstrations followed. The state Board of Regents overruled the recommendation of the examiner it had named, who took 1,800 pages of testimony, and voted unanimously to support O'Connell's recommendation not to award tenure. Megill and the Gainesville local 1880 of the American Federal of Teachers sued, each asking for $500,000 in compensatory and punitive damages.

An extended legal battle ended with the Fifth Circuit Court ruling that a faculty without a contract, like Megill, could be terminated for no reason, for false reasons, or for any reason at all.  That ruling became an important precedent that was cited 42 times in other cases.

Political activist and trade unionist
After leaving the university, Megill became a full-time organizer for a faculty union. In 1976, the United Faculty of Florida (UFF) was elected as the bargaining agent for 6,000 faculty and professional employees in the nine (now ten) state universities. By 2014 the United Faculty of Florida (UFF) represented more than thirty thousand faculty and professional employees in Florida.

In 1982, Megill left the union presidency and moved to Washington where he worked for a number of different organizations.
 At the National Education Association (NEA), he developed a communications program for its higher education members. As a result of his recommendation, the National Education Association established a peer reviewed academic journal called "Thought and Action" that currently has 180,000 readers.
 He served as the Executive Director of the Virginia Association of Towing and Recovery Operators. He developed the first educational program for the tow truck driver. He represented its members in the Virginia legislature, where he succeeded in getting legislation passed that recognized the professionalism of the tow truck operators. He was selected as the Outstanding Executive in the country by Tow Times Magazine.
 He was the first development director for the Human Rights Campaign Fund. It became the largest lesbian and gay advocacy organization in the United States and is now called the Human Rights Campaign.

Records and knowledge manager
Starting in the late 1980s Megill became a practicing records manager and later turned his attention to developing a theoretical framework for records and knowledge management.  In 1987 he was hired as the first professional records manager at the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC), the Administrator of National Banks for the US federal government. He automated the operations of the Central File Room and spent a year working with other OCC staff to develop a data dictionary for banking.

He began a fifteen-year working relationship with Cuadra Associates and assisted them in developing the first software for managing electronic records.  From 1988 to 1993, Megill taught courses at The Catholic University of America School of Library and Information Science. He was one of the first professors to use electronic technologies in teaching.  He developed a certificate program in federal information resources management and, with a group of federal information professionals, he published a handbook on how to bring the information revolution to the federal government.

He published two editions of a book on corporate memory that gave a theoretical and practical bases for records management which was translated into Serbo-Croatian. Together with Herb Schantz, an engineer who held patents on many of the technologies used for document scanning, he wrote a book for document managers. Schantz was a leader in The Association for Work Process Improvement (TAWPI) which brought together technical and business leaders in optical character recognition.

As a consultant, Megill helped organizations and businesses to develop records management and archival programs. He spoke at professional meetings and continued his writing.

In 1999, Megill began a three-year project to create an Integrated Digital Environment (IDE) for the US Air Force.

The Air Force established a Work Culture Transformation Board made up of senior executives to transform the work culture of the Air Force from an information hoarding to an information sharing environment.

In 2005, Megill and Lawrence Tan founded a company, Knowledge Applications Services (KAS), to put his theoretical work into practice. He worked with the National Mediation Board (NMB), an agency managing labor-management relationships in the airline and railway industry. Under his leadership, NMB created the first all-electronic record management system in a federal agency.

title: To War with Whitaker

text:
To War with Whitaker: The Wartime Diaries of the Countess of Ranfurly 1939–1945 is a memoir of World War II written, in diary form, by Hermione, Countess of Ranfurly. It was first published by William Heinemann in 1994. The following year, Mandarin Publishing issued it in paperback, describing the memoir as "A love story that knows no bounds":

When World War II broke out, Dan Ranfurly was dispatched to the Middle East with his faithful valet, Whitaker. These are the diaries of his young wife, Hermione, who, defying the War Office, raced off in hot pursuit of her husband. When Dan was taken prisoner, Hermione vowed never to return home until they were reunited. For six years, travelling alone from Cape Town to Palestine, and meeting such charismatic characters as Churchill, Eisenhower, and a parrot called Coco on the way, she kept her promise.

The Countess's lively prose style is characterised by frankness, a sharp eye for character – not least that of the short, chubby, phlegmatic valet Whitaker – and an acute ear for dialogue. For example, when the Earl received a telegram at the outbreak of war in 1939 ordering him to report to his regiment, she writes: "After reading this Dan asked Whitaker if he would like to go with him. The old fatty looked over the top of his spectacles and said, 'To the War, my Lord? Very good, my Lord.'"

Her husband, The 6th Earl of Ranfurly, a nobleman of Ulster-Scots descent, was a lieutenant in the Sherwood Rangers Yeomanry. Lord Ranfurly, often known simply as Dan Ranfurly, was captured by soldiers of Rommel's Afrika Korps, along with General Sir Richard O'Connor and other officers, in Libya in April 1941 when their driver became lost in the dark. A military historian later described it as "the most valuable car-load of booty to fall to the Afrika Korps during its entire existence". Dan spent the next two years as a prisoner-of-war in Italy.

Dan and other British officers escaped following the Italian surrender in 1943 and, after several months on the run behind German lines, he was finally reunited with his wife in Algiers in May 1944. After the war, Lord Ranfurly served as Governor of the Bahamas, where his wife established a lending library service in Nassau that she later extended to other parts of the world in need of English language books. That service later became Book Aid International.

When the Countess died in 2001, her obituarist for the Daily Telegraph wrote: "Hermione, Countess of Ranfurly, who has died aged 87, was the author of one of the most delightful memoirs of recent times, To War with Whitaker (1994), and the kind of woman for whom words such as pluck and spirit might have been invented."

The film rights to Lady Ranfurly's diary were optioned by the Los Angeles-based production company Grandiosity Films in 2016.

title: Raymond West (character)

text:
Raymond West is a fictional character who appears or is mentioned in several of Agatha Christie's novels and short stories featuring Jane Marple.

Character overview
He is a well-known author and Miss Marple's nephew. He is not interested in Marple's cases, but in some novels (like A Caribbean Mystery and At Bertram's Hotel) he supports Marple financially. His wife Joan (née Lemprière), an artist, is also sympathetic to Marple.

In The Thirteen Problems (1932), his future wife's name was given as Joyce, not Joan. Raymond's mother was one of three girls, with Marple being the eldest and his mother having another sister. This other sister had a daughter, Raymond's cousin Mabel Denham, who was accused of murdering her husband, Geoffrey (The Thirteen Problems).

Raymond and Joan had two sons, one of whom is named David and works in British Railways. David was able to help his great-aunt solve a mystery regarding a missing corpse by sending her a map of a certain patch of railway (4.50 from Paddington). His other son, Lionel, is a keen stamp collector and has shown Miss Marple every single one, and told her about the rare 1855 Blue Stamp, which helps her solve a case regarding a lost inheritance (Miss Marple's Final Cases and Two Other Stories).

In the novel The Mirror Crack'd from Side to Side, Raymond is mentioned, as he engages Miss Knight to stay with Miss Marple, after an attack of bronchitis left her very weak, and Dr Haydock said that she must not go on sleeping alone in the house, with only someone coming in daily. Miss Marple also mentions that when staying with Raymond, she noticed that some of his guests seemed to arrive with quite a quantity of little bottles of pills and tablets, which they take with their food and drink. This gives her the idea that someone might add something to a drink quite openly, without anyone thinking twice about it.

title: James Cama

text:
James Cama Sr. (December 8, 1957 – August 15, 2014) was an American martial arts practitioner and teacher.

Career
Beginning his martial arts training as a young child, Cama soon became a notable student of Peter Urban and opened his own first dojo at the age of 18. He eventually reached the rank of 8th Dan in Urban's American Goju system. While still teaching karate and studying under Urban, Cama experimented and studied for shorter periods of time a variety of styles, including Eagle Claw and Hung Gar.

James eventually ended up becoming a disciple of  Henry Leung, of the Buddha Hand Wing Chun system. Sifu Leung was the only recognized grand-master of the Fut Sao Wing Chun system in the West. After many years or practice and following Leung's death in 2011, Cama became the sole inheritor of this unique system outside of China. Over the years, this system became Cama's main style of practice and teaching, and he had been instructing it many years before Leung's death, with his blessing. Being the sole inheritor of the Fut Sao Wing Chun system through direct lineage teachings made James Cama a unique individual in Chinese Martial Arts circles.

Later in life while in his 30s, Cama became interested in pursuing the study of Southern Praying Mantis. After visiting a number of teachers from various lineages, chance led him to become a disciple of Robert Lee. The latter is a disciple of the late Lam Sang, who had brought the Kwong Sai Jook Lum Southern Mantis system to the United States. After many years of intensive training, Cama became the head instructor at the Hung Ching (Chinese Masons) club in New York, where Lam Sang once taught. James maintained this respectable position until his death in 2014.

Cama died on August 15, 2014, and is survived by his wife and two children.

Cama wrote a single book, covering the Buddha Hand Wing Chun system, which was published on August 14, 2014.

title: Mapillary

text:
Mapillary is a service for sharing crowdsourced geotagged photos, developed by remote company Mapillary AB, based in Malmö, Sweden. Mapillary was launched in 2013 and acquired by Meta Platforms in 2020. It offers street level imagery similar to Google Street View.

History

Mapillary co-founders were Jan Erik Solem, Johan Gyllenspetz, Peter Neubauer and Yubin Kuang. According to Solem, Mapillary was founded to allow crowdsourcing of street-level imagery for use with computer vision.

The project started in September 2013, with an iPhone app released in November 2013, followed by an Android app released in January 2014.

Mapillary received $1.5 million in seed capital funding from a group of investors, led by Sequoia Capital in January 2015. In March 2016, it raised $8M additional funding (Atomico, Sequoia, LDV Capital, and PlayFair) for expanded operations, including more computer vision talent and a San Francisco office. In spring 2018, the company received $15M investment led by BMW i Ventures for a total estimated funding of $25M.

In September 2018, Mapillary announced a "collaboration" with Amazon to use the Rekognition visual data analysis platform to extract text from Mapillary's huge database of 350 million images. As large cities struggle to manage current street sign inventories, the first major project is identifying parking signs and extracting sign text for one large U.S. city, which will use the data to build a parking app to help save drivers time when searching for parking. In October 2018, the company made CNBC's annual list of top 100 start-ups to watch. In November 2018, Mapillary released a software development kit (SDK) allowing interested third-party software developers to integrate Mapillary image-capture functionality in their apps, opening the way for additional input channels.

In June 2020, Facebook acquired Mapillary for an undisclosed amount. After the acquisition, commercial use of Mapillary was made available free of charge. Due to Mapillary being widely used for contributing to OpenStreetMap and fears that Facebook might shut the service down, a tool was subsequently created for synchronizing data between Mapillary and KartaView (formerly OpenStreetCam). By November 14, over 55TiB or 30 million images had been transferred to KartaView.

In August 2020, Mapillary announced that more cameras will be available for contributors, making possible streetside coverage of more places that Mapillary might not visit.

Features
Mapillary offers different capturing modes including walking, riding (either a bike or car), or panorama. On 10 September 2014, Mapillary announced that they now support panoramas and spherical photos.

As of May 2014, Mapillary had around 0.5 million photos and by December 2014, it had over 5.5 million. As of March 2015 it had 10 million photos, and by June 11, 2015, Mapillary had over 20 million photos, and by August 9 over 30 million. As of November 15, 2016 Mapillary had over 100 million photos.

Mapillary images, millions

Major dataset contributions
In 2018, Mapillary acquired major image datasets from two USA state transportation departments: approximately 5 million images each contributed by the Vermont Department of Transportation and the Arizona Department of Transportation.

License
The images on Mapillary can be used under Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International License (CC BY-SA). There is special permission to derive data from the photos for contributing to OpenStreetMap and Wikimedia Commons. The GPX tracks can be used without restriction, and derived data can be used provided it is ODbL.

The license was changed on 29 April 2014 from CC BY-NC to CC BY-SA.

Mobile apps (Android and iPhone) are proprietary software.

Research/datasets
In May 2017, Mapillary released an open source subset of its very large and ever-expanding crowdsourced image dataset, the Mapillary Vistas Dataset of 25,000 street-level images, with pixel-wise annotation, to help train autonomous vehicle AI system algorithms. With data from 190 countries, they described it as "the world's largest, most diverse dataset for object recognition on street-level imagery" and offered it free for both academic and commercial researchers, but licensing is required for commercial product integration.

Mapillary Tasker
On November 28, 2017, Mapillary released a beta tool known as the Mapillary Tasker. Mapillary Tasker "enables a task creator to tell other contributors where help is needed and what needs to be done." On the other hand, contributors can sort through the various tasks listed on the beta and work on whatever projects are interesting and feasible.

The tasks can range from "completing coverage, making map edits based on images, and verifying object detection," and separated between capture, map edit, and verification tasks on the actual tool. As a side note, because the tool is currently in beta, users have to send requests to be reviewed by Mapillary administrators, rather than having the autonomy to post whatever task you want assistance with.

title: Destroy All Nels Cline

text:
Destroy All Nels Cline is an album by American guitarist Nels Cline which was released in April 2001 on the Atavistic label.

Reception

The AllMusic review by Don Snowden states, "You won't hear Nels Cline individually to his best advantage here because the music is so dense and detail-packed it's hard to tell the soloists and the players apart. Which just may be the reason he wanted to do the project and name the disc Destroy All Nels Cline -- to escape from any personality focus, and get back to collective music making. It's tough stuff, but if you like seriously electric guitar improvisation and/or Sonic Youth and their ilk's more experimental forays, there are plenty of rewards here". All About Jazz stated "Take it or leave it. Destroy All Nels Cline offers surprisingly effective sonic therapy for the open-minded—and probably only a bad headache for the rest. You'll have to decide if it's going to work for you. This pair of ears gives it two thumbs up".

title: Govindudu Andarivadele (soundtrack)

text:
Govindudu Andarivadele is the feature film soundtrack composed by Yuvan Shankar Raja for the 2014 Telugu-language action film of the same name directed by Krishna Vamsi. The soundtrack consists of 6 songs whose lyrics were written by Suddala Ashok Teja, Sri Mani, Sirivennela Sitaramasastri, Ramajogayya Sastry, Chandrabose and Lakshmi Bhoopal each. It was released by Aditya Music label on 1 September 2014 in a promotional event held at Shilpakala Vedika in Hyderabad.

Production
Krishna Vamsi wanted to narrate the story of a London bred NRI who visits India in search of his roots. After finishing the scriptwork, he had 16 situations for placement of songs which he later reduced to six, which included one dance number because of Ram Charan's popularity as a dancer, two family songs apart from three romantic songs. S. Thaman, who composed the music for Ram Charan's Naayak (2013) was signed as the music director of the film marking his first collaboration with Krishna Vamsi. However, in mid-April 2014, he was replaced by Yuvan Shankar Raja due to conflicting schedules, although sources reported that talks were also held with G. V. Prakash Kumar. In late April, during the music sittings with Yuvan Shankar Raja at Chennai, Krishna Vamsi confirmed the news in a telephonic conversation with Suresh Krishnamoorthy of The Hindu stating, "Initially, music for the film was to be composed by Thaman, but he told me that he was busy and agreed to a change. It was an amicable decision. I must also add that I am looking for music that will be in sync with the mood, in every scene, notes that will showcase culture and tradition, sound modern yet ancient, one of a kind, conceptual sound from the land and from the people".

It became the first time that Krishna Vamsi collaborated with Yuvan Shankar Raja, with the director later informing that he had waited five years to work with the composer;  it was also the first time Yuvan scored for a film starring Srikanth and Ram Charan.  In the end of April 2014, it was reported that the song Adavari Matalaku from Pawan Kalyan's Kushi would be remixed for this film which itself was a remixed version of the same song penned by Pingali Nagendrarao for the 1955 film Missamma. However, there was no official confirmation. Yuvan and Krishna Vamsi patiently worked for more than 15 days on a single tune for a song in order to get it perfect which according to the latter "forms the nucleus" of the film. That song's lyrics were penned by Suddala Ashok Teja. The song was titled Neeli Rangu Cheeralona which was sung by the character of Balaraju played by Prakash Raj in the film. Krishna Vamsi wanted to include this song as the character of Balaraju believes in living happily using which the song was supposed to explain his take on life with woman as the example and the slang in rural areas where Telugu is spoken mostly sounds like songs. After being narrated the whole script and the situation of the song, Suddala Ashok Teja participated in discussions during the recording at Chennai and Hyderabad and 12 versions wote by him were rejected before finalizing this one for which Ashok Teja took 28 days. On the night of the film's teaser launch in Hyderabad, Krishna Vamsi said this song would be remembered for decades.

In the press note released on 28 May 2014 it was stated that during the schedule break in May, Yuvan Shankar Raja finished composing 3 songs for the film including the title track of the film. By the end of June 2014, Yuvan completed composing of 4 songs in the soundtrack album. Chandrabose penned lyrics for the song Bavagari Choope which was the other family song apart from Neeli Rangu Cheeralona. He was instructed by Krishna Vamsi to use 2 charanams, the first one to describe the romance between both the lead pairs while the second charanam explaining the film's basic storyline briefly. Ramajogayya Sastry was approached by Krishna Vamsi to write the lyrics for the introduction song of Ram Charan in the film, which was a dance number. This was his first collaboration with Krishna Vamsi and his name was suggested by Ram Charan. He was given a time of four days to finish penning the song's lyrics after being narrated the film's story. The song was shot in and  around the locales of London. The lyrics of one of the two romantic songs Gulabi Kallu Rendu Mullu shot on Charan and Kajal predominantly were penned by Sri Mani marking his first collaboration with Krishna Vamsi. He chose to start the song with the words Gulabi Kallu Rendu Mullu... (Rose Eyes turn two thorns) because after listening to the story, he felt that in romance, a girl's eyes would hit a boy's hearts like thorns besides the eyes of the female lead played by Kajal being very attractive.

The other romantic song Ra Rakumara was sung by Chinmayi and its lyrics were penned by Sirivennela Sitaramasastri. For this song, Yuvan used Dharmavathi Raaga which is popularly known as Madhuvanti Raaga in Hindustani music. It was a rare raaga used in Telugu with Vennello Godari Andam from Sitaara (1983), Andela Ravamidi Padamulada from Swarnakamalam (1988) being two notable examples composed using this raaga. The last song in the soundtrack Kokkokkodi was penned by Lakshmi Bhoopal. The song's situation was a duet song where the male leads are drunk and they would imagine their love interests nearby thus expressing each other's feelings. Krishna Vamsi gave reference of four to five songs composed by Ilaiyaraaja to compose this tune. Bhoopal had to use few words and lines which were experimental and imaginary in nature. Initially, the song was not included in the final version screened in theaters. As a marketing strategy, the makers later planned to add this song to the film being screened in theaters to boost the collections. Yuvan started re-recording for the film's first half on 6 August 2014 at his studio in Chennai.

IndiaGlitz stated "The film has got eclectic situations for distinct songs. And the album doesn't belie our expectations. From jamboree songs to romantic numbers to profound ones, this album lives up to the image that Krishna Vamsi's albums have carved out for themselves. Yuvan belches out two refreshing numbers by changing his style a bit" and rated the album 3 out of 5. Milliblog wrote that the soundtrack had "Good stuff by Yuvan, overall, on his Telugu comeback". Avad M. of 123telugu gave a review stating "On the whole with Govindudu Andarivadele, Yuvan Shankar Raja breaks away from the commercial format and gives quite a feel good music album. Gulabi Kallu, Baava Gari Choope and Pratichota Nake Swagatam are our picks and will be liked by everyone. Finally, GAV’s music will surely grow on you once you watch Krishna Vamsi’s beautiful visuals on screen." way2movies.com stated "Govindudu Andari Vadele is a feel Good melody from Yuvan Shankar Raja". It rated the songs "Neeli Rangu Cheeralona", "Gulabi Kallu Rendu Mullu" and "Bavagari Choope" 3.5 out of 5 each; it rated "Prathi Chota Nake Swagatham" 3.25 out of 5 and rated "Ra Rakumara" and "Kokkokkodi" 3 out of 5 each.

title: Rich Paul

text:
Rich Paul (born December 16, 1981) is an American sports agent and founder of Klutch Sports Group. He is a long-time friend and agent for NBA star LeBron James and is considered to be one of the most powerful agents in sports.

Early life
Paul grew up in a one-bedroom apartment above his father's store, R & J Confectionery, on East 125th and Arlington in Glenville, a neighborhood on the east side of Cleveland. His father enrolled him in the private, fee-paying Benedictine, a Roman Catholic high school. His father died of cancer in 1999.

After graduating from high school, Paul was mentored by Distant Replays owner Andy Hyman on selling vintage jerseys. He would buy throwback jerseys from Atlanta and sell them out of his trunk in Cleveland. In 2002, he met LeBron James at the Akron–Canton Airport, where James was impressed by Paul's authentic Warren Moon throwback jersey. The two exchanged contact information, and soon Paul had sold James a Magic Johnson Lakers jersey and a Joe Namath Rams jersey.

Career
Following the 2003 NBA draft, Paul joined James as a part of his small inner circle, along with James' childhood friends Maverick Carter and Randy Mims. He would later start working under Leon Rose, who had negotiated James' extension with the Cavaliers in 2006, at Creative Artists Agency. In 2012, Paul, along with James, left Rose and CAA to start his own agency, Klutch Sports Group. In 2013, Paul enlisted noted long-time agent and attorney Mark Termini to run the NBA contract negotiations for Klutch. By the conclusion of Termini's tenure at Klutch in 2020, Klutch Sports had a roster of 25 clients, and Termini had led negotiations on over $1 billion worth of NBA contracts for said clients. Later that year, United Talent Agency (UTA) made a strategic investment in Klutch Sports Group and asked Paul to run its sports division where he expanded the division's clients from 4 to 23. In 2020, he accepted a position on UTA's board of directors.

Before the start of the 2017–18 season, Phoenix Suns owner Robert Sarver had told Paul that if he did not sever ties to head coach Earl Watson, who had Paul and the Klutch Sports Group as an agent at the time, he would fire Watson from the team. After the Suns got off to a 0–3 start, with two blowout losses (including the worst loss in franchise history and worst season opening performance in NBA history) being the perfect cover story in mind, Watson was fired on October 22, and replaced on an interim basis by associate head coach Jay Triano for the rest of that season. This story later became a part of a major report on Sarver on September 13, 2022, which led to his year-long suspension from the NBA and later resulted in Sarver agreeing to sell the Suns and Phoenix Mercury to a new owner eight days afterward.  Sarver eventually sold his stake with the team and some extra minority stakes to a new ownership group led by Mat Ishbia and his older brother Justin Ishbia on December 20, 2022, which was made official on February 8, 2023.

In August 2019, the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) changed its regulations for agents, requiring them to hold a bachelor's degree. Called the "Rich Paul Rule" by the media, it was widely seen as a swipe at Paul for having not graduated from college and for working with a high school prospect Darius Bazley who decided to work as an intern for New Balance for a year before entering the 2019 NBA draft rather than attend Syracuse or even enter the NBA G League like he first planned to do. Paul argued in an op-ed in The Athletic that the rule would prevent people from less prestigious backgrounds, people of color, and those without the funds to attend college from working as agents in the future so NCAA executives could have more control. The NCAA later backed down from the regulation change.

In 2020, Paul launched "Klutch Conversations" during the NBA All-Star Weekend with SocialWorks and General Mills to encourage financial literacy among young people.

In August 2021, Rich Paul was reportedly being sued by Nerlens Noel on the grounds of a breach of fiduciary duty, breach of contract, and negligence for his role in turning down a $70 million contract offer from the Dallas Mavericks in the offseason preceding the 2017–18 season. The two eventually reached a settlement on January 11, 2023, with Noel paying full commissions on a $5 million deal he signed in 2020 with the New York Knicks and Noel withdrawing all legal precedings afterward.

Personal life
Paul has three children. In 2021, Paul entered into a relationship with English singer-songwriter Adele. He was included in the 2020 "Ebony Power 100 List". In 2022, Paul was listed at fourth on Forbes list of the "World's Most Powerful Sports Agents".

title: Yvelines's 2nd constituency

text:
The 2nd constituency of Yvelines is a French legislative constituency in the Yvelines département.

Description

The 2nd constituency of Yvelines includes part of Versailles as well as the areas to its immediate south and west.

Like much of eastern Yvelines, the seat is dominated by the wealthy suburbs to the west of Paris. The seat was staunchly conservative, having voted for the Republicans, Union for a Popular Movement, and its predecessor Rally for the Republic at every election since 1988 prior to 2017. Its deputy from 2002 to 2016, Valérie Pécresse, served as a minister during the premiership of François Fillon.

Historic representation

Election results

2022 by-election
The 2022 election was threatened by annulment due to Anne Grignon being both substitute for a deputy and substitute for a senator (Martin Lévrier, in violation  of the electoral code. In order to avoid the cancellation of the election, Anne Grignon resigned from her mandate as deputy on August 12, 2022.

On July 4, 2022, Jean-Noël Barrot was appointed Deputy Minister in charge of the Digital Transition and Telecommunications. Consequently, he should have been replaced in the National Assembly on August 3, 2022, by his resigning substitute Anne Grignon for the duration of the exercise of his governmental functions. Due to her resignation, a by-election was called.

A by-election was therefore called for October 2nd, 2022 to fill the vacant seat in this constituency. The second round of voting took place on October 9, 2022. Due to Jean-Noël Barrot being a minister in office, he was replaced in the National Assembly for the duration of these functions by his deputy, Anne Bergantz.

title: ARIA Award for Best Cover Art

text:
The ARIA Music Award for Best Cover Art, is an award presented within the Artisan Awards at the annual ARIA Music Awards.  The ARIA Awards recognise "the many achievements of Aussie artists across all music genres", and have been given by the Australian Recording Industry Association (ARIA) since 1987.

The award is given to the designer who is from, or resides in Australia, and has overall responsibility for the album covers' design concept. The graphics that appear on the cover must be an original work that was designed in Australia. The accolade is restricted to album recordings that have met the general eligibility criteria (however, in 2000 and 2012 single covers were included in the final nominations list). Best Cover Art is voted for by a judging academy, which consists of 1000 members from different areas of the music industry.

Winners and nominees
In the following table, the winner is highlighted in a separate colour, and in boldface; the nominees are those that are not highlighted or in boldface. Nominees from 1988 are not available in published sources.

The years listed in the first column relate to the year and edition of the awards ceremony. The second column indicates the graphic artist(s) responsible for the covers' design (although the current rules (as of 2011) state that only the graphic designer who has had overall responsibility for the album covers' design concept may be eligible for nomination, multiple artists have been nominated in previous ceremonies). The "Album title and original recording artist(s)" column names the album whose cover art has been nominated, and its original recording artist; the musician is not the nominee unless they were the designer.
