It drains part of the Northern Oregon Coast Range in the extreme northwest corner of state, entering the Columbia via Youngs Bay just approximately 10 miles (16 km) from its mouth. It rises in a remote section of the mountains of central Clatsop County, north of Saddle Mountain State Natural Area. It flows generally northwest, passing over Youngs River Falls, discovered by a hunting party of the Lewis and Clark Expedition from nearby Fort Clatsop. It broadens in a large estuary and enters the south end of Youngs Bay on the Columbia at Astoria. It receives the Klaskanine River from the east approximately 5 miles (8 km) south of Astoria. It receives the Wallooskee River from the east approximately 2 miles (3 km) south of Astoria. Named tributaries of Youngs River from source to mouth are Fall Creek and South Fork Youngs River, then Fox, Osgood, Rock, Bayney, Wawa, and Moosmoos creeks followed by the Klaskanine River. Below that come Cooperage, Battle Creek, Tucker, Casey, Binder, and Cook sloughs followed by the Wallooskee River. Further downstream are Crosel, Brown, and Craig creeks followed by Knowland Slough and the Lewis and Clark River.

Peter II (died 1153) was the Viscount of Béarn from 1134 to his death. He was also the viscount of Gabardan, Brulhois, and Gabarret (as Peter III). Son of Peter II of Gabarret and Guiscarda of Béarn, he received the vicecomital title after the death of his maternal uncle Centule VI. While he was a minor, his regency was exercised by his maternal grandmother Talesa of Aragon (until 1136 at least). His mother continued the regency until 1047. Married to Matelle de Baux in 1145, he participated in the \"crusade\" of 1148 organised by Raymond Berengar IV of Barcelona, his wife's cousin. In this he followed the illustrious tradition of his family in aiding the Aragonese monarchs against the Moors in Spain. The 1148 campaign was a success, culminating in the conquest of Tortosa, Lleida, and Fraga. That final conquest has symbolic significance for the Bearnese, as Centule VI had died at Fraga's walls. For this, Peter requested and obtained the exchange of his title \"Lord of Huesca\" for \"Lord of Fraga.\" Peter also promoted the Way of Saint James and, contrary to his grandfather Gaston IV, established hospitals along the route through the pass of Roncesvalles and not that of Somport. By his time, however, Roncesvalles had already surpassed Santa Cristina at Somport as the preferred pass of the pilgrims. His final public act was the foundation of a new pilgrim hospital in Ordios in the year of his death, which shortly followed. He left two young children, Gaston and Mary.

The 2011 All-Ireland Senior Club Hurling Championship final was a hurling match played at Croke Park on 17 March 2011 to determine the winners of the 2010–11 All-Ireland Senior Club Hurling Championship, the 41st season of the All-Ireland Senior Club Hurling Championship, a tournament organised by the Gaelic Athletic Association for the champion clubs of the four provinces of Ireland. The final was contested by Clarinbridge of Galway and O'Loughlin Gaels of Kilkenny, with Clarinbridge winning by 2-18 to 0-12. The All-Ireland final was a unique occasion as it was the first ever championship meeting between Clarinbridge and O'Loughlin Gaels. It remains their only clash in the All-Ireland series. Both sides were hoping to claim a first All-Ireland title. O'Loughlin Gaels began the game in determined fashion and there were few signs of early nerves in their first ever game at Croke Park. Mark Bergin was in prolific form and he opened the scoring after just 44 seconds. Bergin pointed again in the third minute before a brace of Danny Loughnane points helped the Gaels into a 0-4 to 0-00 lead. Clarinbridge hit back with an 11th-minute score from Eoin Forde, however, once Maurice Nolan slotted over his only point of the hour, it opened up an 0-8 to 0-3 lead for O'Loughlin Gaels. Clarinbridge utilised the three minutes of first-half injury-time to their full advantage. O'Loughlin Gaels goalkeeper Stephen Murphy was beaten when a long delivery from Alan Kerins dropped short for his brother Mark to flick the ball to the net. Clarinbridge were subsequently awarded a penalty, however, they had to be content with just a point from the resulting penalty strike as the half ended with the sides tied at 1-7 to 0-10. Clarinbridge took the lead for the first time after the restart with a brace of points from the Kerins brothers. They outscored O'Loughlin Gaels by eight points to one over the third quarter and some of the best scores of the game were produced during this excellent spell. The lead stood at 1-15 to 0-12 in the 45th minute following Forde's second point, amid constant pressure on a now under-fire O'Loughlin Gaels defence. There was no sign of Clarinbridge easing up and once Forde delivered his side's second goal eight minutes from the end, it propelled them into a double-scores advantage at 2-18 to 0-12. Neither side was able to add to their tally as frustration set in for Gaels with substitute Séamie Cummins being red-carded in injury-time. Clarinbridge's victory secured their first All-Ireland title. They became the 23rd club to win the All-Ireland title, while they were the sixth Galway representatives to claim the ultimate prize.

The War of the Guelderian Succession was a battle for the throne of the Duchy of Guelders that raged between 1371 and 1379. The war originated when Duke Rainald III died without issue in 1371. His brother, Edward, who had been killed in the Battle of Baesweiler earlier that same year also left no offspring. The pretenders to the ducal throne were the two daughters of Duke Rainald II: Machteld, who was married to John II, Count of Blois, and Mary, wife of William II of Jülich and mother to William I of Guelders and Jülich, on whose behalf she claimed the throne of Guelders. 14th-century Guelders was divided in two factions: \n* The Heeckerens supported Machteld of Guelders, and were led by Frederik van Heeckeren van der Eze (1320-1386). \n* The Bronckhorsters supported William of Guelders, and were led by Gijsbert V van Bronckhorst (1328-1356). The war lasted eight years, with Mary and her supporters emerging victorious, and Mary's son William becoming Duke of Guelders.

The bay-breasted warbler (Setophaga castanea) is a New World warbler. They breed in northern North America, specifically in Canada, into the Great Lakes region, and into northern New England. These birds are migratory, wintering in northwest South America and southern Central America. They are very rare vagrants to western Europe. This species is closely related to blackpoll warbler, but this species has a more southerly breeding range and a more northerly wintering area. The summer male bay-breasted warblers are unmistakable. They have grey backs, black faces, and chestnut crowns, flanks and throats. They also boast of bright yellow neck patches, and their underparts are white. They have two white wing bars, as well. Breeding females essentially resemble washed out versions of the male. The females are greyish above and white below, with much weaker head patterns. The females also only have chestnut markings on small flank patches, although tiny tints in their grey crowns have been observed. Non-breeding birds have greenish heads, greenish upperparts and yellowish breasts. The yellow extends to the belly of young birds. The two white wing bars are always present in every stage of life. These birds differ from non-breeding blackpoll warblers in the absence of breast streaks. Their breeding habitats are coniferous woodlands. Bay-breasted warblers nest 5–20 ft (1.5–6.1 m) up in conifer trees, laying 3–5 eggs in a cup-shaped nest. Incubation is 12 days. More eggs are laid in spruce budworm years. These birds feed on insects, and the numbers of these birds vary with the abundance of the spruce budworm. These birds will also feed on berries and nectar in wintertime. Their songs are a repetitive high-pitched si si si.

He was the son, perhaps the second son, of Robert de Brus, 1st Lord of Annandale. The elder de Brus' allegiances were compromised when David I invaded England in the later 1130s, and he had renounced his fealty to David before the Battle of the Standard in 1138. The younger Robert however remained loyal and took over his father's land in Scotland, whilst the English territories remained with the elder Robert and passed to the latter's elder son Adam. Bruce family tradition has it that Robert II was captured by his father at the battle and given over to King Stephen of England. A legend tells that in the 1140s, Robert II was visited at Annan by St Malachy. St Malachy asked Robert to pardon a thief, but Robert hanged him anyway, and for this the River Annan destroyed part of his castle and the de Brus line received a curse from the holy man. Robert made Lochmaben the centre of his lordship and constructed a new caput there. He married Euphemia de Crosebi or Crosbj of Aumale, daughter of Sir Adam de Crosebi or Crosbj. They had five known children: \n* Robert (d. 1191), eldest son. \n* William (d. 1212). \n* Bernard. \n* Agatha. \n* Euphemia. Robert was buried at Gisborough Priory in the North Riding, Yorkshire, England, a monastery founded by his father Robert I de Brus. As his eldest son, Robert, predeceased him, he was succeeded by his second son William.

WNSY FM 100.1 is a radio station in northwest Georgia that simulcasts WLKQ-FM \"La Raza\", with a regional Mexican format. First applied-for in 1995, it went on the air as WCHK-FM in 1998. The original WCHK-FM 105.5 is now WRDA 105.7 and owned by Clear Channel. The station became oldies Sunny 100 in 1999. WNSY has Talking Rock, Georgia as its city of license, with a transmitter near Jasper, Georgia. Both are to the far north-northwest of Atlanta, well beyond even the exurbs of metro Atlanta. Its broadcast range is most of northwest Georgia, not including south or southeast metro Atlanta very well for the most part. In January 2007, Davis Broadcasting of Columbus, Georgia completed the purchase of WNSY and WCHK. WNSY, Sunny 100 went off the air on the morning of January 22, 2007, and returned on February 1 with the simulcast of WLKQ, carrying Latino-oriented programming. This would add a fifth Latino radio station to northwest Georgia, as Clear Channel owns WWVA-FM Viva 105.7 FM and WBZY El Patron 105.3 FM, and a local group owns WDAL AM 1420 in Dalton, which was formerly owned by Clear Channel. Listeners to Sunny 100 were surprised by the loss of the station. For the next 14 months, only two FM stations in all of northwest Georgia carried any semblance of the classic oldies genre: WATG \"95.7 The Ridge\" in Rome and WSRV \"97.1 The River\" in Atlanta, both under the classic hits format. The oldies format returned in March 2008 at WYAY FM 106.7.

Gemini 2 was the second spaceflight of the American human spaceflight program Project Gemini. Gemini 2, like Gemini 1, was an unmanned mission intended as a test flight of the Gemini spacecraft. Unlike Gemini 1, which was placed into orbit, Gemini 2 made a suborbital flight, primarily intended to test the spacecraft's heat shield. It was launched on a Titan II GLV rocket. The spacecraft used for the Gemini 2 mission was later refurbished, and was subsequently launched on another suborbital flight, along with OPS 0855, as a test for the US Air Force Manned Orbital Laboratory. Gemini 2 was the first craft to make more than one spaceflight since the X-15, and the only one until Space Shuttle Columbia flew its second mission in 1981.

John Patrick \"J.P.\" Hayes (born August 2, 1965) is an American professional golfer. Hayes was born and raised in Appleton, Wisconsin. He attended the University of Texas at El Paso, where he was a member of the golf team. He majored in Marketing and graduated in 1988. In 1989, he turned professional. Hayes began play on the PGA Tour in 1992 after earning his tour card at qualifying school (Q school). He failed to finish high enough on the money list to retain his card and played on the Nike Tour (now Web.com Tour) in 1993 and 1994. He again gained a PGA Tour card for the 1995 season through Q school but failed to keep it. Playing the Nike Tour again in 1996, he won the Nike Miami Valley Open and finished 14th on the money list. He finished 13th at Q school to earn his 1997 PGA Tour card. He has played that tour ever since, returning to Q school in 1997 and 2004. Hayes has won twice on the PGA Tour: the 1998 Buick Classic and the 2002 John Deere Classic. Hayes became somewhat well known after disqualifying himself in a Q-school qualifying event in November 2008 for mistakenly using a non-regulation ball for two strokes. He returned to the PGA Tour in 2010 after finishing tied for 8th in the 2009 Q school. He retained his tour card after finishing 113th on the Tour. A knee injury halted Hayes' career in 2012. He was a 'motivation speaker' for the Cedarburg High School boys golf team that won the 2013 Wisconsin Division I state title, led by Jeff Van Straten, a high school teammate of Hayes. Hayes plans to return to competitive golf in 2014 to prepare for the Champions Tour.

The United States presidential election of 1984 was the 50th quadrennial presidential election. It was held on Tuesday, November 6, 1984. The contest was between the incumbent President Ronald Reagan, the Republican candidate, and former Vice President Walter Mondale, the Democratic candidate. Reagan carried 49 of the 50 states, becoming one of only two candidates to do so (the other was Richard Nixon in the 1972 presidential election). Reagan touted a strong economic recovery from 1970s stagflation and the 1981–82 recession, as well as the widespread perception that his presidency had overseen a revival of national confidence and prestige. Although Mondale received 40.6% of the popular vote, electoral votes are awarded on a winner-take-all basis in each state, resulting in a lopsided electoral vote count. Mondale's only electoral votes came from the District of Columbia, which has never given its electoral votes to a Republican candidate, and his home state of Minnesota, which he won by a mere 3,761 votes. Reagan's 525 electoral votes (out of 538) is the highest total ever received by a presidential candidate. His showing ranks fifth by percent electoral votes received (97.58%) out of total available electoral votes, just shy of the 523 out of 531 (98.49%) received by Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1936. Mondale's 13 electoral votes is also the second-fewest ever received by a second-place candidate, second only to Alf Landon's 8 in 1936. In the national popular vote, Reagan received 58.8% to Mondale's 40.6% and his percent margin of victory ranks 7th of all presidential elections. No candidate since then has managed to equal or surpass Reagan's 1984 electoral result. Also, no post-1984 Republican candidate has managed to match Reagan's electoral performance in the Northeastern United States and in the West Coast states. At 73, Reagan was the oldest president and oldest presidential candidate to win a presidential election.

Curiosity is a car-sized robotic rover exploring Gale Crater on Mars as part of NASA's Mars Science Laboratory mission (MSL). As of February 10, 2017, Curiosity has been on Mars for 1605 sols (1649 total days) since landing on August 6, 2012. (See current status.) Curiosity was launched from Cape Canaveral on November 26, 2011, at 15:02 UTC aboard the MSL spacecraft and landed on Aeolis Palus in Gale Crater on Mars on August 6, 2012, 05:17 UTC. The Bradbury Landing site was less than 2.4 km (1.5 mi) from the center of the rover's touchdown target after a 563,000,000 km (350,000,000 mi) journey. The rover's include: investigation of the Martian climate and geology; assessment of whether the selected field site inside Gale Crater has ever offered environmental conditions favorable for microbial life, including investigation of the role of water; and planetary habitability studies in preparation for future human exploration. Curiosity's design will serve as the basis for the planned Mars 2020 rover. In December 2012, Curiosity's two-year mission was extended indefinitely.

The Mediterranean gull (Ichthyaetus melanocephalus) is a small gull. The scientific name is from Ancient Greek. The genus Ichthyaetus is from ikhthus, \"fish\", and aetos, \"eagle\", and the specific melanocephalus is from melas, \"black\", and -kephalos \"-headed\". This gull breeds almost entirely in the Western Palearctic, mainly in the south east, especially around the Black Sea, and in central Turkey. There are colonies elsewhere in southern Europe, and this species has undergone a dramatic range expansion in recent decades. As is the case with many gulls, it has traditionally been placed in the genus Larus.

Rainbow Dam is a hydroelectric dam on the Missouri River, 29 feet (8.8 m) high and 1,055 feet (322 m) long, located six miles northeast of Great Falls in the U.S. state of Montana. The dam is named for the downstream Rainbow Falls, a 45 ft (14 m) waterfall that is the third of the five Great Falls of the Missouri. Built in 1910, the dam furnishes water to an eight-unit hydroelectric plant with a capacity of 36 megawatts. As the dam's power plant is located over a half-mile downstream, the flow of water over Rainbow Falls and downstream Crooked Falls is significantly reduced during the dry season. The water from the penstocks re-enters the river a few hundred yards east of Crooked Falls. Montana Power Company acquired the dam when it was founded in 1912, PPL Corporation purchased it in 1997 and sold it to NorthWestern Corporation in 2014.

The primary mission of the 123rd CRG is to provide rapidly deployable forces to the United States Air Force to open forward airfields in an expeditionary environment as a completely self-contained unit. In addition, due to its unique mobile capability, the 123rd CRG is also utilized to provide quick reaction logistical support for humanitarian missions including man-made and natural disasters. The 123d has been described as an \"air base in a box.\" The group acts as an early responder in the event of contingency operations worldwide. Its personnel are capable of deploying into remote airfields, providing command and control of aircraft, and establishing airfield operations so troops and cargo can flow into affected areas. Unit members represent a broad spectrum of specialties, including airfield security, ramp and cargo operations, aircraft maintenance, and command and control. In 2010, the group was one of two Air Force contingency response units to establish overseas airlift hubs supporting earthquake-recovery efforts in Haiti, directing the delivery of hundreds of tons of relief supplies into the Dominican Republic for subsequent trucking to Haiti.

\"Words for Love\" (Hebrew: \"Milim La'Ahava\" Hebrew script: מילים לאהבה) was the Israeli entry in the Eurovision Song Contest 2003, performed in Hebrew and English (with some lyrics in Greek, French and Spanish) by Lior Narkis. The song is an up-tempo number, in which Narkis tells his lover that he can't find the right way to tell her about his feelings. Thus, he pledges to \"study languages, beautiful words\" in order to find the words in every language. He then proceeds to relate his feelings in five languages, ending with the Hebrew equivalent - which is prefaced by \"or simply\", implying that perhaps a really detailed attempt at finding the words was pointless to begin with. The song was performed thirteenth on the night (following Spain's Beth with \"Dime\" and preceding the Netherlands' Esther Hart with \"One More Night\"). At the close of voting, it had received 17 points, placing 19th in a field of 26, thus requiring Israel to qualify from the semi-final at their next Contest appearance. The lyrics involved a man declaring his love for his girlfriend in many different languages. There were two verses in Hebrew, and the Chorus featured \"I love you\" said in six different languages, including English, French, Italian, Greek and Hebrew. Lior Narkis was accompanied on stage by five women in black dresses, each with a different colour petticoat. They originally wore shirts and ties, but these were discarded midway through the song, to reveal bodices decorated with the different ways of saying \"I Love You\", mentioned in the song- each woman had their slogan written in the same colour as their petticoat. It was succeeded as Israeli representative at the 2004 Contest by David D'or with Leha'amin.

\"Notre planète\" (\"Our planet\") was the Monegasque entry in the Eurovision Song Contest 2004, performed in French by French singer Maryon. The song marked Monaco's return to the contest after a 25-year absence. The song is an environmentally themed track with a moderately up-tempo feel. Maryon sings about the need to take care of the natural beauty of the earth, in order to make sure that an earthly paradise can be constructed. Of some note was the performance, in which Maryon began dressed almost head-to-toe in a dark cloak, before removing it as the song built to its conclusion. As Monaco had not competed at the Contest for 25 years, the song was performed in the semi-final. Here, it was performed eighth, following Malta's Julie & Ludwig with \"On Again... Off Again\" and preceding Greece's Sakis Rouvas with \"Shake It\". At the close of voting, it had received 10 points, placing 19th in a field of 22 and thus missing out on participation in the final. It was succeeded as Monegasque representative at the 2005 Contest by Lise Darly with \"Tout de moi\".

Brzostek [ˈbʐɔstɛk] is a town in Dębica County, Subcarpathian Voivodeship, south-eastern Poland (historic province of Lesser Poland). It is the seat of the gmina (administrative district) called Gmina Brzostek. The town has a population of 2,597 (02.06.2009). It lies on the Wisłoka river, in the foothills of the Carpathians, approximately 19 kilometres (12 mi) south of Dębica and 46 km (29 mi) west of the regional capital Rzeszów. Brzostek is a local center of education and commerce. Brzostek gained its Magdeburg rights in 1367, but first documented mentions of the town come from 1123-1125, when a list of possessions of the Benedictine Abbey in Tyniec was created. Among a number of villages specified in the document, there is Brzostek (spelled Brestek). For centuries Brzostek remained a small town, frequently destroyed in numerous wars and conflicts. In 1657 the town was burned by the forces of Transylvanian prince George II Rákóczi, who invaded Poland earlier in the year. On 18 February 1846 the Galician peasant revolt started in the town (see Jakub Szela), and in the second half of the 19th century, Ignacy Łukasiewicz opened his pharmacy here. In 1934 Brzostek lost its town status, as its population was under 3,000, too small to be officially called a town. Its Jewish population was murdered by the Germans in the Holocaust, Brzostek itself was destroyed during World War II in 65%. It regained the town status on 1 January 2009. Among points of interest there are 18th and 19th-century houses in the market square, roadside chapels (18th and 19th centuries), a Classicistic church (1818), and World War I military cemeteries.

Cabbage or headed cabbage (comprising several cultivars of Brassica oleracea) is a leafy green or purple biennial plant, grown as an annual vegetable crop for its dense-leaved heads. It is descended from the wild cabbage, B. oleracea var. oleracea, and is closely related to broccoli and cauliflower (var. botrytis), brussels sprouts (var. gemmifera) and savoy cabbage (var. sabauda). Cabbage heads generally range from 0.5 to 4 kilograms (1 to 9 lb), and can be green, purple and white. Smooth-leafed firm-headed green cabbages are the most common, with smooth-leafed red and crinkle-leafed savoy cabbages of both colors seen more rarely. It is a multi-layered vegetable. Under conditions of long sunlit days such as are found at high northern latitudes in summer, cabbages can grow much larger. Some records are discussed at the end of the history section. It is difficult to trace the exact history of cabbage, but it was most likely domesticated somewhere in Europe before 1000 BC, although savoys were not developed until the 16th century. By the Middle Ages, it had become a prominent part of European cuisine. Cabbage heads are generally picked during the first year of the plant's life cycle, but plants intended for seed are allowed to grow a second year, and must be kept separated from other cole crops to prevent cross-pollination. Cabbage is prone to several nutrient deficiencies, as well as to multiple pests, and bacterial and fungal diseases. The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) reports that world production of cabbage and other brassicas for 2011 was almost 69 million metric tons (68 million long tons; 75 million short tons). Almost half of these crops were grown in China, where Chinese cabbage is the most popular Brassica vegetable. Cabbages are prepared in many different ways for eating. They can be pickled, fermented for dishes such as sauerkraut, steamed, stewed, sautéed, braised, or eaten raw. Cabbage is a good source of vitamin K, vitamin C and dietary fiber. Contaminated cabbage has been linked to cases of food-borne illness in humans.
