The superb fairy-wren (Malurus cyaneus), also known as the superb blue-wren or colloquially as the blue wren, is a passerine bird of the family Maluridae, common and familiar across southeastern Australia. The species is sedentary and territorial, also exhibiting a high degree of sexual dimorphism; the male in breeding plumage has a striking bright blue forehead, ear coverts, mantle, and tail, with a black mask and black or dark blue throat. Non-breeding males, females and juveniles are predominantly grey-brown in colour; this gave the early impression that males were polygamous, as all dull-coloured birds were taken for females. Six subspecies groups are recognized: three larger and darker forms from Tasmania, Flinders and King Island respectively, and three smaller and paler forms from mainland Australia and Kangaroo Island. Like other fairy-wrens, the superb fairy-wren is notable for several peculiar behavioural characteristics; the birds are socially monogamous and sexually promiscuous, meaning that although they form pairs between one male and one female, each partner will mate with other individuals and even assist in raising the young from such pairings. Male wrens pluck yellow petals and display them to females as part of a courtship display. The superb fairy-wren can be found in almost any area that has at least a little dense undergrowth for shelter, including grasslands with scattered shrubs, moderately thick forest, woodland, heaths, and domestic gardens. It has adapted well to the urban environment and is common in suburban Sydney, Canberra and Melbourne. The superb fairy-wren eats mostly insects and supplements its diet with seeds.

Fairfield is a former unincorporated community in Benton County, Missouri, USA. Fairfield and much of its surrounding township, Alexander, is now covered by water, as part of the Harry S. Truman Dam and Reservoir. It was located about seven miles south of Warsaw just west of Route 83. The Fairfield Public Use Area is on the shore near the location of the former community. One of the earliest residents of Fairfield was Judge George T. Alexander, a pioneer in Missouri since 1816, who built the town's covered bridge, and operated its mill. He arrived in Fairfield in 1832 and purchased an Indian village for $60. He obtained a ferry license for the Pomme de Terre River at that spot in 1836 and was elected as a county judge. The township was named for Alexander. Fairfield in 1962 still had the remains of the old mill and the pillars from the old covered bridge. Fairfield had a post office with the town bar in the same building, side by side. There also was an old country church on the north end of town and a bait shop in the center of town with a walkway to the banks of the river bank and the docks that provided john boat rentals. There was a small local country store with food, hardware and clothing, as well as a gasoline station with a repair garage.

Baron Bean is a newspaper comic strip created by the cartoonist George Herriman. Herriman drew his domestic comedy strip, The Dingbat Family, until 1916. From January 5, 1916 through January 22, 1919, Herriman also drew the daily Baron Bean. Herriman continued to draw other strips in addition to Krazy Kat through 1932. M. Thomas Inge took note of Herriman's interest in silent comedies and observed, \"In his appearance, the Baron borrowed his cane and his facial features from Chaplin.\" Comics historian Ron Goulart stated that while Baron Bean superficially resembled Mutt and Jeff, \"Herriman usually shunned conventional jokes and it exhibited some of the graphic eccentricities to be found in more abundance in Krazy Kat.\" Herriman had previously drawn a similar character, Baron Mooch, in 1909-10. In 1977, the strips were collected in Baron Bean: 1916-1917 (Hyperion Press). In 2012, IDW's \"Library of American Comics\" plans for three yearly volumes of Baron Bean in their new \"LOAC: Essentials\" series. The first volume came out in September 2012 and covered the year 1916, the second came out in December 2014 and covered the year 1917. The final will cover 1918 and 1919.

Saint Cyril of Constantinople (d. c. 1235) was a General of the Carmelites and prior of the hermits on Mount Carmel for three years. He is reputed to have had the gift of prophecy. One of the pseudo-prophecies, given out towards the end of the thirteenth century by the Franciscan Spirituals, and attributed to Cyril of Jerusalem, became known to Guido de Perpignan and other Carmelites at Paris, who ascribed it to their former general, now considered a saint and a doctor of the Church, his feast day being introduced in 1399. In the Breviary lessons he was also confused with Cyril of Alexandria. When the mistake was discovered (1430, but the confusion was maintained in the Venice Breviary, 1542), his title of doctor was justified by attributing to him a work, of which no trace exists, on the procession of the Holy Ghost. The so-called \"Cyrillic prophecy\" or angelic oracle Divinum oraculum S. Cyrillo Carmelitae Constantinopolitano solemni legatione angeli missum (ed. Phllippus a SS. Trinitate, Lyons, 1663), so called because it is supposed to have been brought by an angel while Cyril was saying Mass, is a lengthy document of eleven chapters in incomprehensible language, with a commentary falsely ascribed to Abbot Joachim. It is first mentioned by Arnold of Villanova, c. 1295; Telesphorus of Cosenza applied it to the Western Schism and treated it as an utterance of the Holy Ghost. Another writing erroneously attributed to Cyril is De processu sui Ordinis, by a contemporary, probably a French author; edited by Daniel a Virgine Mariâ in Speculum Carmelitarum (Antwerp, 1680), I, 75.

Susan McInnis (born June 18, 1963 in Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island) is a Canadian curler. She is currently the alternate for the Shelly Bradley rink. McInnis has been to a career nine Scotties Tournament of Hearts. Her first Scotties was in 1989, throwing third stones for the Kathie Gallant rink. There, the team finished with a 4-7 record. McInnis then played in the 1992 Scott Tournament of Hearts playing third for Kim Dolan, also finishing with a 4-7 record. McInnis returned to the Hearts in 1995 as part of the Rebecca Jean MacPhee (MacDonald) team. Originally supposed to be the alternate for the team, she would end up playing in 9 games as the team's lead. The team made the playoffs after finishing 4th in the round robin with an 8-3 record. They would lose in their first playoff match against Alberta's Cathy Borst's team. McInnis would play lead in the game, and curled 80%. McInnis was back in 1996 as a skip, and led her PEI rink, which included Kathy O'Rourke, Tricia MacGregor (Affleck) and Leslie Allan (MacDougall) to a 6-5 record. McInnis then joined the Tammi Lowther rink at third, and played in the 1998 Scott Tournament of Hearts, finishing with a 4-7 record. McInnis did not return to the Hearts until 2003, throwing lead stones for Suzanne Gaudet (now Birt), who was fresh from winning two Canadian Junior championships. This team finished the round robin in first place, with a 10-1 record. However, they buckled under pressure in the playoffs, losing to the defending champion Colleen Jones rink in the 1 vs. 2 game, and then to Newfoundland and Labrador's Cathy Cunningham in the semi-final. In both games, McInnis led all curlers with a 94% shooting percentage. McInnis was promoted to third the next season, and returned to the Scotties in 2004. The team had a disappointing record, winning only two games. The team returned in 2006, improving to a 4-7 record. After a hiatus from competitive curling, McInnis re-joined the Suzanne Birt rink in 2013. They would win the Prince Edward Island Scotties Tournament of Hearts in 2015, and McInnis will play lead for PEI at the 2015 Scotties Tournament of Hearts. McInnis has also won multiple provincial mixed titles, winning in 1991, 1992, 1993, 1996, 1999 and 2001, all playing third for John Likely.

Hylonome was a female centaur in Greek mythology. She was present at the battle against the Lapiths, where she lost her husband, the centaur Cyllarus, whom she loved very much. Heartbroken, she then took her own life to join him. The Centaur lovers' episodic digression and their \"ideally mutual relationship\", within Nestor's narration of the Battle of the Lapiths and Centaurs in Met. 12. Ovid, alludes to two didactic poems, Lucretius' De Rerum Natura and Ovid's own Ars Amatoria III. In the Cyllarus-Hylonome interlude he explores hybridity itself illustrating the relationships and \"possible combinations of a number of conceptual opposites: natura and cultus, human and animal, male and female, love and war, and the contrasting values of lyric-elegiac and epic poetry\".

The 1909 U.S. Open was the 15th U.S. Open, held June 24–25 at Englewood Golf Club in Englewood, New Jersey, north of downtown New York City (Manhattan). George Sargent established a new tournament scoring record to win his only major title, four strokes ahead of runner-up Tom McNamara. David Hunter made U.S. Open history in the first round by becoming the first player to break 70, but he had some problems in the second round when he hit his ball into a brook and subsequently used four niblick shots in getting out. After reaching the turn in 47 he made a nice recovery on the back nine and came home in 37, shooting 84 and ultimately finished in 30th place. Tom McNamara also broke 70, shooting a 69 in the second round, and he carried a two-stroke lead over George Sargent into the final round. Sargent birdied the 18th in the final round on his way to a 71 and his third consecutive round of 72 or better. McNamara struggled over the final 18-holes, carding a 77 and finishing four back of Sargent. Sargent's winning total of 290 broke the old tournament scoring record by five shots. Tom Peebles was well positioned after three rounds on 222 but struggled and fell back into the pack with a final round 78. John McDermott, aged 17, made his U.S. Open debut this year and finished in 49th. He would place in the top-10 in each of the next five U.S. Opens and won consecutive titles in 1911 and 1912, becoming the first American-born champion. Four-time champion Willie Anderson tied for 4th, his final top-10 finish at his next to last U.S. Open appearance. Horace Rawlins, the inaugural U.S. Open champion back in 1895, made his last cut in the tournament and finished in 60th.

Heavy metal (or simply metal) is a genre of rock music that developed in the late 1960s and early 1970s, largely in the United Kingdom and the United States. With roots in blues rock and psychedelic rock, the bands that created heavy metal developed a thick, massive sound, characterized by highly amplified distortion, extended guitar solos, emphatic beats, and overall loudness. Heavy metal lyrics and performance styles are sometimes associated with aggression and machismo. The first heavy metal bands such as Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath and Deep Purple attracted large audiences, though they were often derided by critics. During the mid-1970s, Judas Priest helped spur the genre's evolution by discarding much of its blues influence; Motörhead introduced a punk rock sensibility and an increasing emphasis on speed. Beginning in the late 1970s, bands in the new wave of British heavy metal such as Iron Maiden and Saxon followed in a similar vein. Before the end of the decade, heavy metal fans became known as \"metalheads\" or \"headbangers\". During the 1980s, glam metal became popular with groups such as Mötley Crüe and Poison. Underground scenes produced an array of more aggressive styles: thrash metal broke into the mainstream with bands such as Metallica, Megadeth, Slayer, and Anthrax, while other extreme subgenres of metal such as death metal and black metal remain subcultural phenomena. Since the mid-1990s popular styles have further expanded the definition of the genre. These include groove metal (with bands such as Pantera, Sepultura, and Lamb of God) and nu metal (with bands such as Korn, Slipknot, and Linkin Park), the latter of which often incorporates elements of grunge and hip hop.

The white-fringed antwren (Formicivora grisea) is a passerine bird in the antbird family. It is a resident breeder in tropical South America from Colombia southeast to the Guianas and Brazil, and on Tobago. The white-fringed antwren is typically 12.7 cm long, and weighs 9.4 g. The male has a grey-brown crown and upperparts, and black wings, tail, lower face and underparts. There are two conspicuous white wing bars and a white stripe running from above the eye down the sides of the breast and flanks. The tail feathers are tipped with white. The female's upperparts are much like the male, but females of the southern populations are orange below and have an orange supercilium. These occur south and east from southeastern Colombia and southernmost Venezuela. Northern population's females have underparts which are buff with dark streaks. The Tobagonian subspecies F. g. tobagensis is larger than mainland birds. It has a tu whistle followed by a trilled churet, and a repeated and accelerating tu-ik call. Southern birds also have a repetitive chump-chump-chump song, quite unlike northern races which are sometimes separated as northern white-fringed antwren (Formicivora intermedia). F. grisea proper would then become the southern white-fringed antwren. This is a common and confiding bird of second growth woodland, usually found as territorial pairs. The southern populations are associated with scrubby bushes on white sandy soils and restinga habitat. These birds inhabit the lowlands, up to around 200 m ASL. In some places, they are sympatric with the rusty-backed antwren (F. rufa). The white-fringed antwren feeds on small insects and other arthropods taken from undergrowth twigs and foliage. The female lays two purple-marked creamy white eggs, which are incubated by both sexes, in a grass hammock nest low in a tree or shrub. Nests are occasionally plundered by predators, for example smallish mammals like the common marmoset (Callithrix jacchus), despite the birds' attempts to defend their offspring. Of a total of 13 birds studied in Colombia—in the Parque Nacional de La Macarena and near Turbo—only one was infected with blood parasites (an undetermined Plasmodium species). This bird is not considered globally threatened by the IUCN. However, its resilience to human alteration of habitat is not too pronounced, and in some regions its continuing presence would seem to depend on protection of habitat.

The First Battle of Târgu Frumos was part of the First Jassy-Kishinev Offensive of World War II, fought between Axis powers commanded by Otto Wöhler and Soviet forces led by Ivan Konev. By early April 1944, Stavka (Main Command of the Soviet Armed Forces) ordered its two major units involved in operations in south-western Ukraine to mount a strategic offensive in north-eastern Romania. Konev's 2nd Ukrainian Front approached Târgu Frumos and Botoșani regions by 5 April and commenced its offensive towards Târgu Frumos on 8 April. The Romanian 4th Army, charged with the defense of the region, was being reinforced by German panzer elements of the 24th Panzer Division and was preparing to hold an initial Soviet advance. However, these defenses proved to be no match for the Soviet assault on the town and by the next day Târgu Frumos had been secured by two 27th Army rifle divisions. Meanwhile, the German Eighth Army command responded rapidly by ordering Hasso von Manteuffel's Großdeutschland Panzergrenadier division to move towards Târgu Frumos and recapture the town. By the evening of 10 April, 48 hours after receiving the initial order, Großdeutschland succeeded in retaking the town and establishing new defensive positions there. Sporadic battles with Soviet elements remaining in the region continued until 12 April, as they were facing the danger of encirclement. Following the end of the battle, the Germans formed a new defensive line northwest and northeast of the town and maintained a tank regiment as reserve near Târgu Frumos proper. Meanwhile, irked by the defeat suffered at Târgu Frumos, Konev ordered the 2nd Tank Army to commence on 12 April an offensive towards the village of Podu Iloaiei.

The Arena Naucalpan 35th Anniversary Show was an annual professional wrestling major event produced by Mexican professional wrestling promotion International Wrestling Revolution Group (IWRG), which took place on December 20, 2012 in Arena Naucalpan, Naucalpan, State of Mexico, Mexico. The show celebrated the 35th Anniversary of the construction of Arena Naucalpann, IWRG's main venue. The main event was a five team steel cage match contested under elimination rules. The teams were La Familia de Tijuana (Damian 666 and X-Fly), Los Hermanos Dinamita, Jr. (Hijo de Máscara Año 2000 and Máscara Año 2000, Jr.) and the father/son duos of Dr. Wagner, Jr. and El Hijo de Dr. Wagner, Jr., El Canek and El Canek, Jr. and Los Piratas (Hijo de Pirata Morgan and Pirata Morgan). Damian 666 was originally slated to team with his son Bestia 666, but was replaced by X-Fly. The match was contested under escape rules, which meant that the last team member in the ring would be the loser. Dr. Wagner, Jr. as well as Los Infierno Rockers and Los Psycho Circus who worked on the under card all appeared through IWRG's working relationship with fellow Mexican wrestling promotion Asistencia Asesoría y Administración (AAA). The undercard also saw the continuation of the storyline feud between Fuerza Guerrera and Black Terry as well as a Torneo cibernetico elimination match between a team representing IWRG's wrestling school and a team representing Fuerza Guerrera's school Gimnasio Konkreto.

Terrano or Teran (in Slovenian) is a Slovenian, Italian dark-skinned grape variety, bearing the mark of recognized traditional denomination. It is a member of the Refosco family of grape varieties, which also includes Refosco dal Peduncolo Rosso. Traditional Kraški Teran does not age well - notably, chemical analyses have confirmed that the content of bivalent iron starts to diminish radically two years after fermentation - and should be consumed within its first year; after that, the wine quickly loses its attractive vitality and can even become bitter and flat.

Queen + Paul Rodgers (sometimes referred to as Q+PR or QPR) were a collaboration between Queen (Brian May and Roger Taylor) and Paul Rodgers formerly of Bad Company, Free, The Firm and The Law. Guitarist May had previously performed with Rodgers on several occasions, including a performance at the Royal Albert Hall. It was made clear that Rodgers would not be replacing Queen's former lead singer, Freddie Mercury, who died on 24 November 1991. He would simply be \"featured with\" former Queen members. Former Queen bass guitarist John Deacon declined to participate in the collaboration due to his retirement in 1997. The group's three principal members May, Taylor and Rodgers were supplemented on tour by Queen's former touring keyboard player Spike Edney, rhythm guitarist Jamie Moses, and bass guitarist Danny Miranda who had previously worked with Blue Öyster Cult. Throughout their career the band completed two world tours, issued the first studio album for Queen in nearly 15 years entitled The Cosmos Rocks, and released two live DVDs and a live album. Rodgers announced in May 2009 that the 'Queen + Paul Rodgers' collaboration had come to an end, saying \"it was never meant to be a permanent arrangement\". He did, however, leave open the possibility for future collaborations.
