title: Hold You Down (DJ Khaled song)

text:
"Hold You Down" is a song by American musician DJ Khaled featuring fellow American musicians Chris Brown, August Alsina, Future and Jeremih from the former's eighth studio album I Changed a Lot. It was released on August 3, 2014 as the second single, becoming certified gold by Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) on June 4, 2015. The track topped the US Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay chart and is August Alsina's first top 40 entry as well as DJ Khaled's seventh.

Music video
The music video released coinciding with the single on August 11, 2014 via WorldStarHipHop and made its national television debut on the popular program 106 & Park on BET as well as MTV Jams. The music video was directed by Gil Green and features Khaled's newly endorsed Bang & Olufsen headphones. In the video, all artists of the song are seen in a mansion performing the song. The music video was taken down from YouTube in 2017 after Khaled was involved in a lawsuit with Bang & Olufsen (makers of the headphones advertised throughout the video).

Remix
On November 3, 2014, DJ Khaled released the remix for "Hold You Down". On the remix, Usher sings the hook from the original song, and Rick Ross, Fabolous and Ace Hood each rap a verse. In the background of the remix, a skit from the music video of the original song can be heard.

title: List of government-owned companies

text:
This is a non-exhaustive world-wide list of government-owned companies. The paragraph that follows was paraphrased from a 1996 GAO report which investigated only the 20th-century American experience. The GAO report did not consider the potential use in the international forum of SOEs as extensions of a nation's foreign policy utensils. A government-owned corporation is a legal entity that undertakes commercial activities on behalf of an owner government. Their legal status varies from being a part of government to stock companies with a state as a regular stockholder. There is no standard definition of a government-owned corporation (GOC) or state-owned enterprise (SOE), although the two terms can be used interchangeably. The defining characteristics are that they have a distinct legal form and that they are established to operate in commercial affairs. While they may also have public policy objectives, GOCs should be differentiated from other forms of government agencies or state entities established to pursue purely non-financial objectives.

Afghanistan
In 2009, the Government of the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan formed the Afghan Public Protection Force (APPF) as a "state owned enterprise" subordinate to the Ministry of the Interior. By presidential decree, the APPF is mandated to replace all non-diplomatic private security companies by 20 March 2013 to become the sole provider of pay-for-service security contracts within Afghanistan.

Brazil

State-owned enterprises are divided into public enterprises (empresa pública) and mixed-economy companies (sociedade de economia mista). The public enterprises are subdivided into two categories: individual – with its own assets and capital owned by the Union – and plural companies – whose assets are owned by multiple government agencies and the Union, which have the majority of the voting interest. Caixa Econômica Federal, Correios, Embrapa and BNDES and are examples of public enterprises. Mixed-economy companies are enterprises with the majority of stocks owned by the government, but that also have stocks owned by the private sector and usually have their shares traded on stock exchanges. Banco do Brasil, Petrobras, Sabesp, and Eletrobras are examples of mixed-economy companies.

Beginning in the 1990s, the central government of Brazil launched a privatization program inspired by the Washington Consensus. State-owned enterprises such as Vale do Rio Doce, Telebrás, CSN, and Usiminas (most of them mixed-economy companies) were transferred to the private sector as part of this policy.

Canada

In Canada, state-owned corporations are referred to as Crown corporations, indicating that an organization is established by law, owned by the sovereign (either in right of Canada or a province), and overseen by parliament and cabinet. Examples of federal Crown corporations include:
 the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation
 Canada Post
 Bank of Canada
 Telefilm Canada
 Via Rail

Ministers of the Crown often control the shares in such public corporations, while parliament both sets out the laws that create and bind Crown corporations and sets their annual budgets.

Foreign SOEs are welcome to invest in Canada: in fall 2013, British Columbia and Alberta signed agreements overseas to promote foreign direct investment in Canada. The Investment Canada Act governs this area federally. Former Prime Minister Stephen Harper stated in 2013 that the "government [needs] to exercise its judgement" over SOEs.

Crown corporations of British Columbia include:
 BC Hydro
 BC Transit
 BC Housing Management Commission
 British Columbia Lottery Corporation
 Liquor Distribution Branch

Saskatchewan has maintained the largest number of Crown corporations, including:
 Saskatchewan Government Insurance
 SaskEnergy
 SaskPower
 SaskTel
 SaskWater

In Ontario:
 GroupeMédia TFO
 Independent Electricity System Operator
 Ontario Educational Communications Authority
 Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation
 Ontario Power Generation
 Liquor Control Board of Ontario

In Quebec:
 Caisse de dépôt et placement du Québec
 Hydro-Québec
 Investissement Québec
 Loto-Québec
 Société de la Place des Arts de Montréal
 Société des alcools du Québec
 Société des Traversiers du Québec
 Société Québécoise des Infrastructures
 Télé-Québec

Privatization, or the selling of Crown corporations to private interests, has become common throughout Canada over the past 30 years. Petro-Canada, Canadian National Railway, and Air Canada are examples of former federal Crown corporations that have been privatized. Privatized provincial Crown corporations include Alberta Government Telephones (which merged with privately owned BC Tel to form Telus), BCRIC, Manitoba Telecom Services, Saskatchewan Oil & Gas Corporation and Potash Corporation of Saskatchewan.

China

After 1949, all business entities in the People's Republic of China were created and owned by the government. In the late 1980s, the government began to reform the state-owned enterprise, and during the 1990s and 2000s, many mid-sized and small sized state-owned enterprises were privatized and went public. There are a number of different corporate forms which result in a mixture of public and private capital. In PRC terminology, a state-owned enterprise refers to a particular corporate form, which is increasingly being replaced by the listed company. Some of the largest state-owned enterprises have been floated on the Shanghai Stock Exchange and the Shenzhen Stock Exchange, but in actuality, the state maintains total control of these corporations, always holding majority interest and voting rights. State-owned enterprises are mostly governed by both local governments' SASAC and, in the central government, the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission (SASAC) of the State Council. However, some state-owned enterprise were governed by China Investment Corporation (and its domestic arm Central Huijin Investment), as well as under the governance of Ministry of Education for the university-run enterprises, or some financial institutes that were under the governance of the Ministry of Finance.

As of 2011, 35% of business activity and 43% of profits in the People's Republic of China resulted from companies in which the state owned a majority interest. Critics, such as The New York Times, have alleged that China's state-owned companies are a vehicle for corruption by the families of ruling party leaders who have sometimes amassed fortunes while managing them.

 China had more than 350 individual entries in the Government-owned companies of China category page.

Hong Kong
In the postwar years, Hong Kong's colonial government operated under a laissez-faire economic philosophy called positive non-interventionism. Hence Crown corporations did not play as significant a role in the development of the territory as in many other British territories.

The MTR Corporation (MTR) was formed as a Crown corporation, mandated to operate under "prudent commercial principles", in 1975. The Kowloon-Canton Railway, operated under a government department, was corporatised in 1982 to imitate the success of MTR (see Kowloon-Canton Railway Corporation). MTR was privatised in 2000 although the Hong Kong Government is still the majority shareholder. KCR was operationally merged with MTR in 2007.

Examples of present-day statutory bodies include the Airport Authority, responsible for running the Hong Kong International Airport, or the Housing Authority, which provides housing to about half of Hong Kong residents.

In India, state-owned enterprise is termed a Public Sector Undertaking (PSU) or a Central Public Sector Enterprise (CPSE). These companies are owned by the Union Government, or one of the many state or territorial governments, or both. The company equity needs to be majority owned by the government to be a PSU. Examples are Life Insurance Corporation of India, Oil and Natural Gas Corporation, Engineers India Limited, India Trade Promotion Organization, GAIL, BSNL, Food Corporation of India, Air India, and Bharat Heavy Electrials Limited (BHEL).

Japan

State-owned enterprises in Japan are commonly divided into  and . Tokushu hōjin are the Japanese equivalent to statutory corporations; tokushu gaisha are kabushiki gaisha owned wholly or majorly by the government.

Japan Post was reorganized into Japan Post Group in 2007 as a material step of the postal privatization. It ceased to be wholly owned by the government on November 4, 2015 when the government listed 11% of its holdings on the Tokyo Stock Exchange. Parts of the Japan Railways Group (JR) were formerly owned by the government. The Electric Power Development Co., Limited was also state-owned before being privatized.

Kenya

Parastatals in Kenya, partly from a lack of expertise and endemic corruption, have largely inhibited economic development. In 1979, a presidential commission went as far as saying that they constituted "a serious threat to the economy", and, by 1989, they had still not furthered industrialization or fostered the development of a Black business class.

Several Kenyan SOEs have been privatized since the 1980s, with mixed results.

Pakistan

Pakistan has a large list of government owned companies called State owned entities (SOEs). These played an important role in the development of the business and industry in Pakistan, but recently they are considered responsible for fiscal difficulties of the government due to corruption and bad governance. These SOEs, roughly 190 in number, operate in a wide range of economic areas including energy, communication, transport, shipping, trading, and banking & finance. Some of the most common examples of crown companies in Pakistan are Pakistan State Oil, Sui Norther Gas Pipelines, Pakistan International Airlines, and Pakistan Steel Mills.

Philippines

In the Philippines, state-owned enterprises are known as government-owned and controlled corporations (GOCCs). They can range from the Social Security System (SSS) and the Philippine Coconut Authority with no counterparts in the private sector, to Land Bank of the Philippines, a wholly government-owned bank that competes with private banks. A number of GOCCs, especially those that were nationalized by president Ferdinand Marcos during his time as the leader of the Fourth Republic of the Philippines, were returned to the private sector by the end of the 20th and the beginning of the 21st century, as with Philippine Airlines (PAL), Philippine Long Distance Telephone Company (PLDT), Philippine National Bank (PNB), and ABS-CBN Corporation (where the frequencies and facilities used by Banahaw Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) were returned to ABS-CBN in 1986 and the ABS-CBN Broadcasting Center were fully recovered by ABS-CBN from People's Television Network (PTV) in 1992), or fully or partially privatized as with National Power Corporation (NPC/NAPOCOR), National Transmission Corporation (TransCo), and Philippine National Construction Corporation (PNCC).

There are two types. Government-owned companies are legally normal companies but mainly or fully national owned. They are expected to be funded by their sales. A big customer might be the government or a government agency. The other type is government agencies which might also do activities competing with private owned companies. They usually are funded by tax money but can also sell services. The government has tried to avoid having agencies doing commercial activities, by separating out areas that compete with private companies into government-owned companies, for example within road construction. The reason is both to avoid unfair competition, and a wish to have market economy instead of plan economy as much as possible. Based on the tradition of avoiding "ministerial rule", the government has avoided interfering with the business of the companies, and allowed them to go international.

title: Vivo (technology company)

text:
Vivo Communication Technology Co. Ltd. is a Chinese multinational technology company headquartered in Dongguan, Guangdong that designs and develops smartphones, smartphone accessories, software and online services. The company develops software for its phones, distributed through its V-Appstore, with iManager included in their proprietary, Android-based operating system, Origin OS in Mainland China, and Funtouch OS elsewhere. It has 10,000 employees, with 10 R&D centers in Shenzhen, Dongguan, Nanjing, Beijing, Hangzhou, Shanghai, Xi’an, Taipei, Tokyo, and San Diego.

History
Since its founding in 2009, Vivo has expanded its global market, serving over 400 million users with its mobile products and services, to over 60 countries and regions.

In 2017, Vivo entered the smartphone market in Taiwan, Hong Kong, Macau, Russia, Brunei, Cambodia, Laos, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, and Nepal. In June 2017, it entered the Pakistan smartphone market and the Vivo brand is currently experiencing rapid growth and popularity in the country. In October 2020, vivo announced that it would begin to sell its products also in Europe.

On 17 December 2020, Vivo and Zeiss announced a long-term strategic partnership to jointly promote and develop breakthrough innovations in mobile imaging technology. The first "Vivo Zeiss co-engineered imaging system" will be featured in the Vivo X60 series. As part of the collaboration agreement, Vivo and Zeiss will establish the Vivo Zeiss Imaging Lab, a joint R&D program to innovate mobile imaging technology for Vivo's flagship smartphones.

In 2021, Vivo was ranked among the top 5 smartphone makers, achieving a global market share of 8%.”

In April 2021, three pallets of Vivo phones caught fire at Hong Kong International Airport, prompting a ban on air freight of Vivo phones through Hong Kong.

In June 2022, Vivo entered the world-famous Guinness Book of Records. It achieved the record for the "Longest Video" in which its flagship device Vivo X Fold happened to be folded over 300,000 times for a total length of 270 hours or 11 days and 6 hours.

Marketing
In October 2015, Vivo became the title sponsor of the Indian Premier League (IPL) under a two-year deal starting in the 2016 season. In July 2017, the deal was extended until 2022. However, in response to the 2020–2021 China–India skirmishes between India and China, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) was criticised in India for allowing a Chinese company to be the title sponsor of the league. Vivo and BCCI mutually agreed to suspend the deal for the 2020 season, with a clause to resume it next season.

In June 2017, Vivo reached a sponsorship deal with FIFA to become the official smartphone brand of the 2018 and 2022 FIFA World Cups. The company also signed a deal with UEFA as an official partner of the UEFA Euro 2020 and UEFA Euro 2024, and became a title sponsor of India's Pro Kabaddi League.

Vivo has a sponsorship deal with the NBA in China, with Golden State Warriors player Stephen Curry. He endorses the brand in China and the Philippines.

Controversy

IMEI and build number controversy in India
In June 2020, the cybercrime unit of Meerut Police revealed that more than 13,500 Vivo smartphones used in India were running on the same IMEI number. The IMEI number is a 15-digit code meant to be unique to every mobile device communication administration, that may be used for tracking criminals or stolen mobile phones. By using the same IMEI number for multiple devices, Vivo could have hampered police tracking of criminals or stolen devices. In 2017, the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India issued a statement that all mobile devices would be required to have a unique IMEI number. Failure to do so would be seen as tampering and could result in a fine or up to three years of imprisonment.

The events led to the police filing a case against Vivo and its service centre. The lapse reportedly came to light when a police officer gave his mobile phone to the staff at the cybercrime unit for examination, as the phone was not working properly despite being repaired at a Vivo service center in Meerut. The cybercrime unit found that the IMEI number of the device was different from the one printed on the box, and then forwarded the IMEI number to an unidentified Telephone Company providing telecommunications services for the handset and asked for the relevant data. The company informed that as of 24 September 2019, the same IMEI number had been running on 13,557 mobile phones in different states of the country. The Meerut police reportedly handed a notice to Vivo India's nodal officer Harmanjit Singh under Section 91 of the CrPC, and also registered a case under Section 420 of the Indian Penal Code.

Tax evasion allegation in India
The Directorate of Revenue Intelligence of India (DRI) raided the offices of Vivo in July 2022 and accused the company of tax evasion. The company allegedly remitted almost half of its turnover out of India. The Enforcement Directorate also blocked the bank accounts of the company to prevent further money laundering. The agency also found that some top executives of Vivo who are Chinese had incorporated 23 shell companies in India, with the help of a Chartered Accountant, Nitin Grg. "These (23) companies are found to have transferred huge amounts of funds to Vivo India. Further, out of the total sale proceeds of Rs 1,25,185 crore, Vivo India remitted Rs 62,476 crore or almost 50 per cent of the turnover out of India, mainly to China", the ED said in a statement. In October 2023, the Enforcement Directorate arrested the head of administration of Vivo India on money laundering charges.

title: San Agustin Parish Church (Bay, Laguna)

text:
St. Augustine Parish Church () is the only Augustinian Roman Catholic church in Bay, Laguna, in the Philippines. The church was first administered by Augustinian friars and later transferred to the Franciscans.

History

It is historically considered as the oldest Roman Catholic church in the Province of Laguna upon the early conquest and establishment of La Laguna.

The first church of Bay was constructed made of light material of bamboo and nipa by the first-ever Catholic missionaries in Laguna, the Augustinian friars of Provincia del Santisimo Nombre de Jesus. It was built along the shore of Laguna Lake (now Brgy. San Agustin.) The town church itself was under supervision of prior provincial itself no other than Martin de Rada (de Herada in some documents) under the patronage of the order's major patron saint, Augustine of Hippo, in 1571. It became a parish on April 30, 1578. In the 18th century, the ecclesiastical administration of Bay was transferred to the Order of Franciscan Minors (OFM), with Domingo Martorel as its new parish priest on November 23, 1737. From the original site along the lake, the church was transferred to its present site later known as , or town center. In 1804 a structure made of bricks and wood was built under the supervision of  Geronimo Hervas. Construction of the church continued until the tenure of Pedro Moya in 1864.

When the most devastating earthquakes in the Philippines struck in 1880, the Luzon earthquake, the church suffered some damage, including to the church's roof. The earthquake also led to a number of fatalities among the townspeople.

When the regular clergy (missionaries) abandoned the Philippines in 1898–1899 due to the Philippine Revolution against Spain and in 1899-1903 due to the Philippine–American War, the Bay church and convent were administered by the secular clergy of the Archdiocese of Manila. The church was also heavily damaged during the Japanese occupation of the Philippines and the Second World War from 1942 to 1945. When peacetime came in 1953, the church was gradually rebuilt by Alejandro Vermorel. When the Archdiocese of Lipa was created, the church was transferred to the newly created archdiocese as of April 16, 1967.
In 1980s the canonical administration of Bay Church was again transferred to the newly created Diocese of San Pablo.

title: Ukraine–Vietnam relations

text:
Ukraine–Vietnam relations are the bilateral relations between Ukraine and Vietnam. Vietnam recognized Ukraine's independence from the Soviet Union on 27 December 1991. Diplomatic relations between the two countries were established on 23 January 1992. The embassy of Vietnam in Ukraine started its operations in 1993, and the embassy of Ukraine in Vietnam was opened in 1997.

Political and economic relations

Vietnam has maintained good relations with Ukraine since the latter's declaration of independence from the Soviet Union. This is largely due to the existence of Vietnamese people in Ukraine and the fact that Ukraine is a primary supplier of military equipment to Vietnam. Ukraine has played a significant role in helping Vietnam upgrade and modernize its military.

Vietnam has maintained a neutral stance on the Russo-Ukrainian War since 2014, and this stance has remained following the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

The two countries have sought to expand their trade and economic ties as of 2018. For Vietnam, Ukraine is an important trade partner in Europe, due to long, historical ties between the two nations, dating back to the Soviet era.

High level visits
In September 2017, the Ukrainian Minister of Foreign Affairs, Pavlo Klimkin, visited Vietnam and met with Vietnamese Prime Minister Nguyễn Xuân Phúc.

Diaspora

Vietnamese community in Ukraine
The 2001 Ukrainian census counted 4,000 Vietnamese people. As of 2022, according to the Vietnamese Ministry of Foreign Affairs, there are approximately 7,000 Vietnamese in Ukraine. Ukrainians regard the Vietnamese community positively, based on historical commonality and the legacy of Soviet influence between two. The Vietnamese community also serves as a bridge connecting Vietnamese populations in other Slavic nations such as Poland, Russia, and Czechia, where large Vietnamese diasporas exist.

In 1985, the Soviet Union signed an agreement with Vietnam to allow gifted Vietnamese students to study or work in the country. This led to the formation of Vietnamese communities in the former Soviet Union, the largest of which are in Kharkiv, Odesa, and Kyiv.  Notably, billionaire Phạm Nhật Vượng lived in Kharkiv during the 1990s.

Ukrainian community in Vietnam
As of 2016, approximately 2,000 Ukrainians in total are estimated to live in Vietnam, including 120 people in the consular register of the Embassy of Ukraine in Vietnam.

In Vietnam there are neither organizations of Ukrainian community, nor religious communities of immigrants from Ukraine, partly due to its large distance and lack of interests.

The vast majority of Ukrainians in Vietnam are labor migrants. They mainly consider their stay in Vietnam as temporary and plan to return home after labor contracts with employers conclude. Ukrainian citizens work in the fields of tourism, trade, maritime transport, coal and petroleum, and a small number of them are engaged in business. A small number of Ukrainians belong to mixed Ukrainian-Vietnamese families.

Ukrainian citizens are most numerous in the cities of Nha Trang (about 100 people), Vũng Tàu (about 100), Hanoi (about 50), and Ho Chi Minh (50).

title: List of government-owned companies of the United Arab Emirates

text:
This is a list of government-owned companies of the United Arab Emirates.  A Government-owned corporation is a legal entity that undertakes commercial activities on behalf of an owner government. Their legal status varies from being a part of government to stock companies with a state as a regular stockholder. There is no standard definition of a government-owned corporation (GOC) or state-owned enterprise (SOE), although the two terms can be used interchangeably. The defining characteristics are that they have a distinct legal form and they are established to operate in commercial affairs. While they may also have public policy objectives, GOCs should be differentiated from other forms of government agencies or state entities established to pursue purely non-financial objectives.

title: Rusla

text:
Rusla, also known as the "Red Woman" from Middle Irish Ingean Ruagh, was a legendary Norwegian shield-maiden mentioned in the Gesta Danorum or "History of the Danes" of Saxo Grammaticus and in the Irish annals. According to Saxo, Rusla was the daughter of a fifth or sixth century king of Telemark called Rieg, and sister of Tesandus (Thrond), who was dispossessed of his throne by a Danish king named Omund. Rusla formed a pirate fleet to attack all Danish ships as revenge for the affront to her brother. Rusla was always accompanied by another woman, Stikla, who was her deputy in all raids. Stikla turned to piracy to avoid marriage, and her name is the origin of the Norwegian city of Stiklestad.

Life and Death
Rusla indiscriminately attacked ships and coastal towns in Iceland, Denmark and the British Isles. However, a Danish King named Omund was a trickster king and persuaded Tesandus to side with the Danes, taking him as a foster son. This plot caused Tesandus to lose his crown. Rusla waged war on the Danes in an attempt to avenge Tesandus' loss. During this conflict, she sank Tesandus' ship. Due to the mercy of Rusla, Tesandus was able to escape with his life, but this loss caused Tesandus to desire revenge on his sister. Tesandus pursued her fleet on ships of his own and eventually captured his sister Rusla, grabbing her by the braids while his crew killed her with blows from rowing oars.

Legacy
Her nickname "Red Woman" comes from her bloodthirsty reputation and her custom of taking no prisoners. The Irish annals also cite Rusla and Stickla's participation in the Battle of Clontarf. They were part of the body of mercenaries hired by the Vikings who fought against Brian Boru, and Rusla lost her sons on the battlefield. Rusla went down in history as the most cruel of all warrior Norse women.

According to the medieval Irish Cogad Gáedel re Gallaib, the sons of a woman by this name died at the Battle of Clontarf in 1014. Although it has been suggested that these two Rusla are the same woman, Alexander Bugge argued that the Irish author of Cogad Gáedel re Gallaib misinterpreted the Old English name Rodla, which refers to the Viking Rollo of Normandy. The two sons who die at Clontarf are called John the Baron and Richard, which fit a Norman milieu.

In the 13th century Gesta Danorum  recorded that the town of Stiklestad was named after Stikla, a shield-maiden who was most famous for raiding with Rusla. Stikla would have settled in the area at some point after her participation in the Battle of Clontarf in 1014.

Her entire focus is on the factory and she is a strict and hardworking proprietor. Her only close companion is Dr. Sethi but even here there is a reserve. Prakash works at one of the machines in the mill. He finds that the machines they are working on are old and dangerous. He designs a safer and more efficient one and takes the design to the President of the company. She gets angry at his suggestion that the machines in her factory are dangerous and fires him. Prakash is out of a job and looking desperately for any form of income. He meets a young girl Sheela outside a girl's hostel with whom he gets friendly. The girl unknown to him is Prabhavati's younger sister.

The day Prakash is sacked from his work, the man who took his place at the machine has an accident. This gets Prabhavati thinking and she goes to Prakash's home to accept his design and re-instate him as head of the design unit.  Over a period of time Prabhavati finds herself getting attracted to Prakash, without realising he's in love with her sister Sheela. During a conversation Sheela learns that Prabha loves Prakash. Sheela is devoted to her sister and feels deeply indebted to her for single-mindedly taking care of her and the factory.  She leaves home and her attitude towards Prakash changes. Prakash unable to understand her behaviour takes out his frustration at work becoming despotic with the workers. The workers revolt and there is a showdown at the factory. Pratibha rushes to the factory; she manages to find what is troubling Prakash. Appalled at the situation she locks herself in her office and works herself into a state where she collapses.

Beyond Iconic: Photographer Dennis Stock is a 2011 American biographical documentary film, written, produced and directed by Hanna Sawka Hamaguchi. The film chronicles the personal and professional life of photographer Dennis Stock. It is narrated by Stock himself and was completed before his death in 2010. The film illuminated different aspects of Stock's life including his classroom at the Omega Institute, where he taught a master class on photography before his death.

The film premiered at 20th Hot Springs Documentary Film Festival on October 15, 2011. Later the film screened at number of festivals including 35th São Paulo International Film Festival, 2014 DOC NYC Film Festival, 34th Denver Film Festival and 2014 Visions du Réel.

Synopsis
The film explores the work and life of one of the late 20th century's most influential photographers in his own words and through hundreds of his famous photographs.

Reception
The film received mostly positive reviews from critics. Lauren Wissot in her review for Filmmaker: The Magazine of Independent Film praised the director by saying that "Hamaguchi smartly cuts from Stock’s master class to direct interviews with the no-nonsense product of The Bronx (“The more you rationalize bad pictures the further you get from taking good pictures,” he advises his students), juxtaposed with Stock narrating the stories behind many of his legendary stills, including the shot of a pre-iconic James Dean navigating Times Square in the rain. Stock comes off as a brilliant teacher – both brutally honest and sensitive, and able to clearly articulate what works in a photo, what doesn’t, and why."

Colorado Photographic Arts Center in their review praised Hamaguchi: "Her film balances Stock’s quiet, contemplative life with his wife and pets against his worldly, vibrant, and yet somehow equally intimate portraits of actors, musicians, and a generation of iconoclasts struggling to find meaning in an increasingly pop culture–driven America."

Ann Hutton of Almanac gave the film a positive review by saying that "Stock’s artistic philosophy, his commitment to integrity of purpose and his ability to see the story in a picture are expertly depicted in this unnarrated treatment." She further added that "Stock’s work is much more than just a bio in photographs, as Sawka, who grew up in High Falls and has four award-winning short films to her credit, gets inside the artist, goes beyond the “iconic” and finds the man behind the beautiful and evocative pictures."

Mark Antonation, in his review for the Starz Denver Film Festival said that "The director balances Stock’s quiet, contemplative life with his wife and pets against his worldly, vibrant, and yet somehow equally intimate portraits of actors, musicians, and a generation of iconoclasts struggling to find meaning in an increasingly pop culture–driven America. While his pictures need no explanation, Hamaguchi allows Stock’s belief in his work to echo with the same eloquence, clarity, and confidence they emanate."

title: Kazem Hassibi

text:
Kazem Hassibi (Hasibi) () (born Tehran, October 1906 – died Tehran, October 28, 1990) was an Iranian academic, parliamentarian, National Front leader, and oil adviser to Prime Minister Mohammad Mosaddegh during Iran's oil nationalization movement.

After his education in France, Hassibi served a stint in the military. In 1941, he began teaching at the University of Tehran in the Faculty of Engineering and also co-founded the Engineer's Association (Kānun-e mohandesin), which would eventually become the Iran Party (Ḥezb-e Irān) and merge into the National Front (Jebhe Melli Irân). Politically active on issues related to oil, he became Deputy Minister of Finance under Mosaddegh and, in 1951, a member of the House of Parliament. During this time, he was regarded as the chief oil expert in Iran. He was a strong proponent of nationalization of the Anglo-Iranian Oil Company and refused to take part in the mediation talks between Iran and the British led by W. Averell Harriman in Terhan in July 1951. He did take part in those spearheaded by Richard Stokes the following month. After the 1953 Iranian coup d'état unseated Mosaddegh, Hassibi was imprisoned along with other important members of the National Front. After his release, he remained politically active with the National Front.

Kazem Hassibi is the grandfather of famous polymath Babak Hassibi. Kazem's father was a watchmaker/clocksmith, and craftsman of other time keeping devices and/or scientific instruments in Tehran, Iran during the late 19th century.

title: Disappearance of Sherlyn Cadapan and Karen Empeño

text:
Sherlyn Cadapan (  disappeared June 26, 2006) and Karen Empeño (  disappeared June 26, 2006) were students who both disappeared in Hagonoy, Bulacan, on June 26, 2006, while doing their school project.

Background
Sherlyn Cadapan was the second child born in the Cadapan family and was a sport science senior at the time of her disappearance. According to her mother, Linda Cadapan, she was a sprinter under the varsity scholarship. Cadapan also had joined protests against the rising fuel prices and human rights abuses under the Arroyo administration; her political views disappointed her mother back then. Karen Empeño was a graduating sociology student and she was described as friendly by her mother.

Disappearance
On June 26, 2006, Cadapan and Empeño, both alumni of the University of the Philippines Diliman, were abducted by military men in Hagonoy, Bulacan, during the tenure of President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo, and were accused of being members of the Communist Party of the Philippines. This incident took place at the time of a fierce conflict in Central Luzon between the government and the communist New People's Army. According to the official investigation, eyewitness Raymond Manalo stated that General Jovito Palparan tortured Sherlyn by hitting her mouth and punching her breasts and stomach area until they bled. Palparan also slammed wooden planks against the victim so that Sherlyn would admit to being a communist, while Sherlyn kept on saying that she wanted to go home to her parents. Manalo also noted that he saw the military stealing from nearby villagers, burning dead bodies using gasoline, and shooting a man who was riding a carabao due to farm work. Manalo's account also noted that in April 2007, he saw Sherlyn lying naked on a chair that had fallen on the floor, her wrists tied together and one leg tied down, while being hit by wooden planks, electrocuted, and afterwards being half-drowned. The military also played with her body, poking wooden objects inside Sherlyn's vagina, after finding out that Sherlyn was going to write a letter to somebody. Sherlyn, due to intense torture, blurted out that the letter was Karen's idea. The military then dragged Karen out from her cell, stripped her naked, tied her wrists and ankles, then beat her, subjected her to water torture, burned her with cigarettes, and raped her with pieces of wood. Manalo afterwards washed the two women's clothes, including their blood-drenched panties. He also noted that the bucket containing urine from the two women was filled with 'chunks of blood'.

Aftermath
The leftist political party Bagong Alyansang Makabayan accused the Armed Forces of the Philippines of being involved in the women's disappearance and alleged deaths. Former general and former congressman Jovito Palparan–known as Berdugo ("Butcher") for his involvement–was implicated by the Philippine government in 2011 for kidnapping, torture, and murder. He was arrested for the disappearances in 2014. Palparan ran for senator in the 2016 elections, but lost.

Forced disappearances are commemorated every All Saints' Day by their relatives.

Conviction
On September 17, 2018, Palparan was sentenced to life imprisonment after being convicted for his involvement in the disappearances. Lieutenant Colonel Felipe Anotado and S/Sgt. Edgardo Osorio were convicted alongside Palparan for the kidnapping of Cadapan and Empeño.

title: Brežice–Koprivnica Fault

text:
The Brežice–Koprivnica Fault is a seismogenic fault in Slovenia and Croatia close to the Slovenian-Croatian border and Zagreb. It strikes ENE-WSW and extends from Novo Mesto in the west, to Brežice and Koprivnica in the east. This is roughly the riverbed of the Krka. It is a sinistral thrust-fault that runs along the southern limb of the Krško Syncline. The movements along the fault have led to the uplift of the southeastern block which includes the Gorjanci or Žumberak mountains.
