Ross Mewburn Elliott (12 February 1929 – 29 March 2000) was an Australian journalist and politician. He was a Liberal Party member of the Legislative Assembly of Western Australia from 1965 to 1968, representing the seat of Canning. Elliott was born in Perth, and attended Hale School. In his youth, he was a talented Australian rules footballer, playing two matches for West Perth during the 1949 WANFL season. In the 1950s, Elliott ran a sporting goods store in Bunbury. He first ventured into journalism as a writer for the Bunbury-based South-West Times, and in 1959 moved back to Perth to work as chief sports writer for the Daily News. He also served as a television panellist for TVW and a radio commentator for 6PM. A member of the Liberal Party since 1948, Elliott ran for parliament at the 1965 state election, narrowly defeating the sitting Labor member, Don May, in the seat of Canning. However, his time in parliament was short-lived, as he lost his seat at the 1968 election. The Labor candidate, Tom Bateman, won with 50.5 percent of the two-party-preferred vote. Elliott subsequently resumed his journalism career, serving as corporate manager of the Golden West Network from 1975 to 1980, as well as in a variety of other roles. A founder of the West Australian Football Register, he was posthumously inducted into the West Australian Football Hall of Fame in 2004.

The lovely hatchetfish or Atlantic silver hatchetfish (Argyropelecus aculeatus) is a species of fish in the Sternoptychidae family. It may exceed 70 millimetres (2.8 in) standard length (SL). It lives in the mesopelagic zone of all oceans and performs diel vertical migration. A. aculeatus feeds on a large range of prey items; in the Gulf of Mexico ostracods and copepods dominated the diet of small individuals (<30 mm SL) and euphausiids, molluscs, and fish the diet of larger ones.The silvery coloration and bioluminescence of the lovely hatchetfish allows it to hide from predators and prey in the down-welling light of the twilight zone.

The Bill Emerson Memorial Bridge is a cable-stayed bridge connecting Missouri's Route 34 and Route 74 with Illinois Route 146 across the Mississippi River between Cape Girardeau, Missouri and East Cape Girardeau, Illinois. It was built just south of its predecessor, the Cape Girardeau Bridge, which was completed in 1928 and demolished in 2004. Prior to its destruction, it was documented for the Library of Congress Historic American Engineering Record Survey number HAER MO-84. The bridge is named after Bill Emerson, a Missouri politician who served in the U.S. House of Representatives from 1981 until his death in 1996. Planning for the four-lane structure began in June 1987, and construction began in late 1996. Several factors have been blamed for the bridge's many delays in planning and construction, including Illinois' reluctance to participate in the project, as well as issues with the bedrock of the river (this resulted in the hiring of a new contractor). The bridge was featured in the 2014 David Fincher film Gone Girl.

MTBS is an annual interschools athletics competition (the largest in South Africa) held between four high schools located in Bellville, Western Cape. The competition is famous for the cheerleading by participating schools. These schools are: D.F. Malan High School, Tygerberg, Bellville High School and Stellenberg. The name is a derived acronym from the names of the schools in that order. The highlight of the event is a 7-minute cheerleading performance by the pavilion of each school in the morning before the athletics commence. This performance consists of a medley of songs during which the students effectively create a \"human LCD screen\" on the pavilion. This is achieved by them opening and closing their school blazer at unique pre-determined moments, with each student effectively functioning as a pixel and thus allowing images and animations to be displayed. Other parts of the school uniform may also be used, but no other props (such as cards) are allowed. This performance is known as a \"kreet\", an Afrikaans word which roughly translates to \"warcry\". Each kreet adheres to a specific theme that has been chosen by that particular school. This unique style of cheering attract large crowds, and therefore the event carries big regional significance. The annual attendance is estimated at 12,000 spectators. The size of the event and the impressiveness of the schools's performances makes it popular to parents and people who do not have children in either of these schools alike. Each year MTBS enjoys strong coverage by South African newspapers Die Burger and Rapport. It has also been partly broadcast on national television channel SABC 2. Similar events exist: most notably in South Korea. Different athletics items take place throughout the day; including short distance sprints, long distance running, shotput, javalin, long jump, discuss, high jump and relay races. 2 Athletes from each school takes part in an event, adding up to 8 athletes in each event.

Cecropis is a genus of large swallows found in Africa and tropical Asia. The red-rumped swallow's range also extends into southern Europe. This genus is frequently subsumed into the larger genus Hirundo. The genus name Cecropis, given by Friedrich Boieis the pre-existing rail genus Crex and Ancient Greek opsis, \"appearance\". The swallow family consists of 74 bird species which typically hunt insects in flight. The two river martins have long been recognised as very distinctive, and are placed in a separate subfamily, Pseudochelidoninae, leaving all other swallows and martins in the Hirundininae. DNA studies suggest that there are three major groupings within the Hirundininae subfamily, broadly correlating with the type of nest built. The groups are the \"core martins\" including burrowing species like the sand martin, the \"nest-adopters\", with birds like the tree swallow which utilise natural cavities, and the \"mud nest builders\". The Cecropsis species construct a closed mud nest and therefore belong to the latter group. It is believed that the evolutionary sequence is from species that make open cup nests (Hirundo and Ptyonoprogne), through Delichon house martins with closed nests, to Cecropis and Petrochelidon, which have retort-like closed nests with an entrance tunnel. The species are: \n* Greater striped swallow Cecropis cucullata \n* Lesser striped swallow Cecropis abyssinica \n* Red-breasted swallow Cecropis semirufa \n* Mosque swallow Cecropis senegalensis \n* Red-rumped swallow Cecropis daurica \n* Sri Lanka swallow Cecropis hyperythra \n* Striated swallow Cecropis striolata \n* Rufous-bellied swallow Cecropis badia

Mount Maroon is a mountain in South East Queensland that is part of the McPherson Range. The mountain rises to 966 m (3,169 ft) above sea level about 12 km west of Rathdowney. The original indigenous name for the mountain is Wahlmoorum which means sand goanna in the Yuggera language. Another aboriginal name documented for the mountain is Dahl-moor-uhn, which means \"big fellow waterhole bunyip\" attributed to two small yet deep lagoons, on the summit of the mountain. The current name for the mountain comes from the first grazing property in the area called Maroon. Mount Maroon consists mainly of rhyolite and has its geological origins in the cooling of molten rock beneath the surface. The mountain was first gazetted in 1938 as Mount Maroon National Park. In 1950, Mount Barney National Park was extended to include Mount Maroon and nearby Mount May. The mountain contains areas of montane heath vegetation, rocky pavement and mallee ash shrublands. Three rock climbers had to be rescued from the mountain in 2002. In early 2008 a bull mastiff named Diff made headlines when it slipped over a ledge and had to be rescued via helicopter. The dog, which was not permitted to be in the national park, led rescuers (by its barking) to two men who were stranded on a steep cliff ledge when trying to rescue the dog.

Frank Davidson (1 October 1872 – 7 June 1951) was an English cricketer who played first-class cricket for Derbyshire between 1897 and 1899. Davidson was born in Brimington, Derbyshire, the son of Josh Davidson, a coal miner and his wife Elizabeth. His father played one game annually for Derbyshire from 1871 to 1875. Davidson's first-class career began for Derbyshire in the 1897 season. His brother George had been playing for the club since 1886 and the brothers appeared together in his debut in August 1897 playing against Warwickshire. There was another pair of brothers Willie Quaife and Walter Quaife on the Warwickshire side, but the match was abandoned part way through the first innings. That was Davidson's his only match in the 1897 season, but he played more fully in the 1898 season. In his opening game against Essex he took five catches and a wicket, while his brother George achieved a match wicket haul of 15. In his next match against Leicestershire, he achieved his best bowling performance of 6 for 36, with a match wicket total of 9. Against Nottinghamshire he took 6 for 49 and a match total of 8. He took wickets regularly in the remaining matches of the season and took many catches from his brother's bowling, but his batting scores were low. At the beginning of 1899 George Davidson died of pneumonia and in the 1899 season Frank Davidson played five matches. Against Hampshire he achieved his best batting score of 43 and took steady wickets, but in subsequent matches his bowling and batting performance declined and he played his last game in June. Davidson was a right-arm medium pace bowler and took 43 first class wickets at an average of 25.44 and a best performance of 6 for 36. He was a right-hand batsman and played 23 innings in 14 first class matches with an average of 6.78 and a top score of 43. Davidson died at Chesterfield, Derbyshire, at the age of 78.

The 2013–14 William & Mary Tribe men's basketball team represented the College of William & Mary during the 2013–14 NCAA Division I men's basketball season. The Tribe, led by 11th year head coach Tony Shaver, played their home games at Kaplan Arena and were members of the Colonial Athletic Association. With his 11th season, Shaver became the longest-tenured coach in program history. The team finished the season 20–12, 10–6 in CAA play and lost in the championship game of the 2014 CAA Men's Basketball Tournament to Delaware, 74–75. The one-point margin is the closest that William & Mary has come to qualifying for the NCAA Men's Division I Basketball Tournament; the Tribe lost all seven of its previous tournament bid-clinching games including three prior CAA championship games (1983, 2008, and 2010). Despite the team's final record, William & Mary elected not to participate in a postseason tournament, which would have been its first postseason bid since 2010.

U.S. Route 1 (US 1) in Florida runs 545 miles (877 km) along the state's east coast from Key West to its crossing of the St. Marys River into Georgia north of Boulogne, and south of Folkston. US 1 was designated through Florida when the U.S. Highway System was established in 1926. The road is maintained by the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT). From its national southern terminus in Key West, US 1 carries the Overseas Highway—the Keys main highway north to the mainland, entering South Florida. From South Florida to Jacksonville, US 1 runs close to the coastline of the Atlantic Ocean and the Intracoastal Waterway, generally east of I-95 and west of State Road A1A, running roughly parallel with both roads. North of Jacksonville, US 1 curves inland towards the St. Mary's River as it enters Georgia. As is the case with all Florida roads with Federal designations, the entirety of US 1 has a hidden Florida Department of Transportation designation: \n* State Road 5 from Whitehead Street / Fleming Street in Key West to Federal Highway (SR 5 north) in Lantana, and from Belvedere Road in West Palm Beach to U.S. Route 1 Alternate/U.S. Route 17 in Jacksonville \n* State Road 970 from Southwest 2nd Avenue (US 41 west/SR 90 west) to Interstate 95 in Miami, along the Downtown Distributor. \n* State Road 805 from Federal Highway (SR 5) to Belvedere Road \n* State Road 15 from U.S. Route 1 Alternate/U.S. Route 17 in Jacksonville to the Georgia state line near Boulogne Among other designations, US 1 is a designated Blue Star Memorial Highway along its entire route through the state. Markers are placed at various locations, including one in Rockledge, Florida and Fort Lauderdale, Florida.

Lake Massaciuccoli (Lago di Massaciuccoli in Italian) is a lake in the Province of Lucca, Tuscany, Italy. Its surface area is 6.9 km². It is located mainly in the municipality of Massarosa and partly in Torre del Lago, a civil parish of Viareggio. The lake was known in ancient times as the Fossis Papirianis, a name used in the Tabula Peutingeriana. The composer Giacomo Puccini lived nearby and frequently hunted around the lake; the nearby village of Torre del Lago is sometimes mentioned with suffix \"Puccini\" in his honour. The lake is home to the large extent of Cladium mariscus in Italy. However, vegetation and wildlife have shrunken substantially since the 20th century, due to eutrophication and expansion of Louisianan Crayfish, which are now disappearing from the lake because of predatory birds.

The 2010–11 season marked the return of Newcastle United to the Premier League following a season in the Championship. They finished in 12th place. Newcastle's early season form was erratic on their return to English football's top tier, with thrashings of Aston Villa and local rivals Sunderland and exceptional away victories at Everton and Arsenal offset by home defeats against Blackpool, Blackburn Rovers and Stoke City. After a win over Arsenal sent Newcastle to fifth in the league, the team went on a winless run that ended in the controversial sacking of manager Chris Hughton. The club swiftly appointed Alan Pardew, last of third-tier Southampton, although Newcastle fans were suspicious due to alleged links with the club's unpopular owners. Despite the club's form still being reasonable, the owner's unpopularity increased after the transfer deadline day sale of local hero Andy Carroll for £35 million to Liverpool. The club posted one of the league's most incredible results, drawing 4–4 draw with Arsenal at St James' Park after being 4–0 down at half-time.

The 2010 CONCACAF Women's Championship served as the region's 2011 FIFA Women's World Cup Qualifiers. The tournament finals took place from 28 October to 8 November 2010 in Cancún, Mexico. Officially, this marked the sixth edition of the competition (starting in 1991), which included the 2002 and 2006 editions of the CONCACAF Women's Gold Cup. Canada won the tournament, its second CONCACAF women's title. The United States, Canada and Mexico received byes into the tournament after taking the top three positions in the 2006 Gold Cup, while five other spots were determined through regional qualification. Canada and Mexico, by virtue of their semi-final wins, qualified automatically for the 2011 Women's World Cup, while third place USA advanced to a play-off against Italy for a further finals berth. Also, Costa Rica and Trinidad and Tobago qualified at the 2011 Pan American Games. Canada won the tournament with a 1–0 win over Mexico in the Final. Just like during their 1998 CONCACAF Women's Championship win, Canada did not concede a single goal against in the entire tournament. They scored 17 goals, while allowing none, to win their second CONCACAF Women's World Cup Qualifier. Contrasting Canada's success, the USA's semifinal loss to Mexico marked the first time ever that the USA did not win a World Cup qualifying match. It was also the second time that the USA failed to appear in a CONCACAF final match, though only by virtue of the fact they did not participate in the 1998 Championship.

Pliogonodon is an extinct genus of crocodylomorph. The type species, P. priscus, was named by Joseph Leidy in 1856. The holotype, known as USNM 7448, is a worn and broken tooth found from Phoebus Landing on the Cape Fear River in North Carolina. Although the age of the strata in which the tooth was found was not recorded, it is thought to have come from Miocene-age beds. The holotype and another tooth found at the same location are all that is known from the genus. Because of the lack of material, the classification of Pliogonodon has been disputed. Since its description, the tooth has been considered indistinguishable from those of the Madagascan crocodyline Voay robustus, thereby resulting in the genus being considered a junior synonym of V. robustus by some paleontologists. The genus is considered a nomen dubium because of the lack of diagnostic features possessed by the teeth, and has been suggested to be synonymous with the alligatoroid Deinosuchus. It has also been assigned to the basal neosuchian family Goniopholididae. The two teeth are conical and curve slightly inward, estimated to be around 2 inches (5.1 cm) in length if they had been fully preserved. The enamel is wrinkled and the base of the crowns are hollow.

Conor Stakelum (born 1968) is an Irish hurling selector and former player. He is a current selector with the Tipperary senior team. Born in Borrisoleigh, County Tipperary, Stakelum was born into a family that had a strong association with hurling. His uncle, Pat Stakelum, was an All-Ireland-winning captain with Tipperary in 1949. Stakelum quickly became involved with the Borris-Ileigh team at underage levels, winning minor and under-21 county championship medals. He quickly progressed onto the senior club team and won a set of All-Ireland, Munster and county senior championship medals during the 1986-87 season. Stakelum made his debut on the inter-county scene at the age of seventeen when he joined the Tipperary minor team in 1986. After little success in this grade he progressed onto the under-21 team, winning an All-Ireland medal in 1989. Stakelum made his senior debut during the 1987-88 league and collected a National Hurling League medal in his debut season. He was on and off the senior panel over the next few years, but claimed an All-Ireland medal on the field of play in 1991. Stakelum also won three Munster medals as a non-playing substitute. After playing his last game for Tipperary in August 1993, he was recalled to the panel for one final season in 1995. His brother, Richard Stakelum, and his first cousins, Bobby and Aidan Ryan, also enjoyed All-Ireland success with Tipperary. Stakelum was also selected on several Munster inter-provincial teams. He was a member of the panel in 1989 and 1991, however, he failed to win a Railway Cup medal. In retirement from playing Stakelum became involved in team management and coaching. He took charge as manager of the Borris-Ileigh senior team in 2014, before being added to the Tipperary senior team as a selector in 2016. In his debut season in this role he helped guide Tipperary to All-Ireland and Munster successes.

Floro and Sons, Inc. that played in the Manila Industrial and Commercial Athletic Association (MICAA) from 1977 to 1981 and the Philippine Basketball League (PBL) from 1989 to 1992, respectively. The first team maintained Crispa's presence in amateur basketball following the transfer of the original Crispa franchise to the Philippine Basketball Association in 1975. It disbanded with the demise of the MICAA in 1982. In 1986, Crispa-Floro took their first attempt to return to Philippine basketball after the disbandment of their pro ballclub in 1984, by joining the National Seniors tournament early that year, the players that made up the Redmanizers lineup includes Glenn Capacio, Eric Altamirano and Jack Tanuan, who would all become members of the national team for the Asian Games, and among others; Ato Agustin, Jeffrey Graves and Adriano Polistico. The team was coached by Arturo Valenzona. In October that year, Crispa would merge with the Lhuillier Jewelers ballclub that won the PABL First Conference championship and the team was known as Crispa-Lhuillier. The comeback was completed in 1989 and the second team became the final incarnation of a Crispa basketball team. They won two PBL titles and disbanded in 1992. Two years later, a Chinese selection playing as a guest team in the PBL was sponsored by Crispa. Crispa's involvement in commercial basketball came to an end with the death of Danny Floro, Crispa's basketball prime mover, on February 24, 1995.

Soyuz 7K-L1 No.5L, sometimes identified by NASA as Zond 1967B, was a Soviet spacecraft which was launched in 1967 as part of the Zond programme. It was a 5,390-kilogram (11,880 lb) Soyuz 7K-L1 spacecraft, the second of nine to be launched. It was intended to perform a circumlunar flyby of the Moon before returning to the Earth for landing, but failed to achieve Earth orbit. Soyuz 7K-L1 No.5L was launched at 19:07:59 UTC on 22 November 1967 atop a Proton-K 8K78K carrier rocket with a Blok D upper stage, flying from Site 81/24 at the Baikonur Cosmodrome. One of the rocket's second stage engines failed to ignite, which caused the launch to be aborted and the spacecraft to separate by means of its SAS launch escape system. The descent module came down 285 kilometres (177 mi) downrange. Its landing motors fired prematurely, resulting in a harder landing than expected, and the spacecraft was subsequently dragged 550 metres (1,800 ft) by its parachute. It was subsequently collected by a Mil Mi-4 helicopter. Prior to the release of information about its mission, NASA correctly identified that it had been a test of a spacecraft intended for manned Lunar flights. However, they were unsure whether it was intended to reach the Moon itself.

Blacksod Lighthouse (Gaelic: Fód Dubh) is situated at the southern end of the Mullet Peninsula, Erris, County Mayo. The lighthouse was built in 1864 by one of the leading merchants in Belmullet at that time, Bryan Carey. The lighthouse is made of local granite blocks which are believed to have come from close by Termon Hill which is an isolated granite outcrop of high quality granite on the peninsula.The keeper's house is a two storey square building, which has always been unpainted. It is occupied by a resident lighthousekeeper who is also responsible for Blackrock lighthouse - see below. The house at Blacksod was badly damaged by a rogue wave in 1989 but has since been repaired and is still occupied. Blacksod is of unusual design for a lighthouse, being a square block of a building with only a small conical lantern section on top of it which is painted white. Although it is easily accessible as it is beside Blacksod Pier, it is not open to the general public.

The Siege of Sloviansk was an operation by the Armed Forces of Ukraine to recapture the city of Sloviansk in Donetsk Oblast from pro-Russian insurgents who had captured it on 12 April 2014. The city was recaptured on 5 July 2014 after shelling from artillery and heavy fighting. On 12 April 2014, as unrest grew in eastern Ukraine following the 2014 Ukrainian revolution, masked men in fatigues, armed with Kalashnikov assault rifles, captured the city administration building. These men, who claimed to be pro-Russian fighters under the banner of the Donetsk People's Republic, subsequently gained control of the rest of Sloviansk and began to fortify it. In response, the Ukrainian Yatsenyuk Government launched a series of counter-offensives against the insurgents, resulting in a standoff and violent skirmishes. As tensions in the city increased, the insurgents began to take journalists and others captive, instigating a hostage crisis. The Security Service of Ukraine said on 18 April that \"Sloviansk remains the hottest point in the region\". On 20 April, Right Sector was ordered by acting President Oleksandr Turchinov to sabotage an insurgent-controlled television tower, leading to the first combat fatalities. By June, roughly 40% of the city's population had fled. On 5 July, after the insurgents had retreated, Ukrainian authorities retook control of the city.

\"Keelatud maa\" (English translation: \"Forbidden Land\") was the Estonian entry in the Eurovision Song Contest 1997, performed in Estonian by Maarja. The song was performed thirteenth on the night (following Poland's Anna Maria Jopek with \"Ale jestem\" and preceding Bosnia and Herzegovina's Alma Čardžić with \"Goodbye\"). At the close of voting, it had received 82 points, placing 8th in a field of 25. The song is sung from the perspective of a woman whose lover is putting barriers in her way when it comes to their relationship. She compares this to being in a \"forbidden land\", but tells him that it won't remain so forever. On stage with Maarja were two backing vocalists, Airi Allvee and Evelin Samuel who was to represent Estonia in 1999. Allvee returned to Eurovision in Tallinn 2002 where she provided backing vocals for Ira Losco. It was succeeded as Estonian representative at the 1998 Contest by Koit Toome with \"Mere lapsed\".
