Kırkgeçit Tunnels (Turkish: Kırkgeçit Tünelleri, literally \"Forty-Passes tunnels\") are a series of seven motorway tunnels crossing the Taurus Mountains on the province border of Niğde and Adana, Turkey. The tunnels are located on the Ankara-Tarsus motorway O-21 E90 between Kemerhisar and Pozantı connecting the Central Anatolia Region with the Mediterranean Region. Five of the tunnels in the north are in Niğde Province while the remaining two are situated in Adana Province. All the seven tunnels are twin bores and carry three lanes of traffic in each direction. 16 viaducts named Kırkgeçit Viaducts connect the tunnels in series. Dangerous goods carriers are not permitted to use the tunnels. The Çakıt Tunnel follows the Kırkgeçit-7 Tunnel in direction Pozantı. The tunnels were constructed as part of the motorway O-21 and were opened to traffic on March 12, 2009. The tunnels allow the travel time of the passage through the mountainous terrain drop from one-and-half hours before to 20 minutes. A saving of File:Turkish lira symbol 8x.png110 million annually is calculated for the national economy. The tunnels enable a through-traffic on motorways from the Bulgarian border Kapıkule to the border crossings to Syria and Iraq.

Robert Bradley Hawley (October 25, 1849 – November 28, 1921) was a businessman and politician from Galveston, Texas, elected as a Republican U.S. Representative (1897-1901) from Texas's 10th congressional district. He won his office in 1896 and 1898 with a plurality, as white voters split between Democratic and Populist party candidates. Determined not to lose another congressional election or compete with the Populists and Republicans on split tickets, the Democrat-dominated state legislature passed a poll tax in 1901, which had the effect of disfranchising most blacks and many minority and poor white voters. This ended competition in the state from the Republican and Populist parties. From 1890 to 1910 all states of the former Confederacy passed measures to disfranchise blacks and exclude them from the political process.

Free Moral Agents is a collective of musicians brought together by Isaiah \"Ikey\" Owens (keyboardist from The Mars Volta) as a means to expand the sounds of what started as a solo recording project. In the spring of 2006 the band in its present and permanent line up started playing shows around Long Beach and Los Angeles. \"There was a time, before I put the record out, that I wasn’t playing in Mars Volta anymore, and I had just bought a bunch of recording instruments. I’d always wanted to record my own record but never did, so [Free Moral Agents] really started with just me. I knew J, who was actually my girlfriend at the time’s brother-in-law, who did poetry and sang and stuff, so I got together with him. This is before the vinyl. I was working at this record store and started talking to my friend Jeff Harris, who it turns out, was really good with Pro Tools, so I added him to the group. He’s really a producer and doesn’t really play with us live, but he’s very much responsible for the sound of the record. I knew Mendee [Ichikawa] for several years, and we had worked on and off, but I knew we needed a female element to the group, so that’s basically what Free Moral Agents is right there. As far as the music goes, it started as my project, but these people who I know I can trust, really bring it together.\" The group is currently finishing its 2nd full length entitled Control This for Gold Standard Laboratories. In April 2009, Owens released two live tracks for free.

Ramalina farinacea is an epiphytic bushy shaped (fruticose) lichen common to areas with Mediterranean, subtropical, or temperate climates. It is in the Ramalina genus of the family Ramalinaceae. The coexistence of two different species of the Trebouxia genus of green algae at the same time were found to be in each specimen collected in widely distributed populations. The algae thrive in different temperature and light environments. It is thought this demonstrates an ability of the lichen with two simultaneous green algae partners to proliferate in a wider range of habitats and geographic areas.

\"No estás solo\" (Spanish pronunciation: [no esˈtas ˈsolo], \"You Aren't Alone\") was the Spanish entry in the Eurovision Song Contest 1987, performed in Spanish by Patricia Kraus, the daughter of Spanish tenor Alfredo Kraus. The song was composed by Rafael Martínez and Rafael Trabucchelli; the latter had written the runner up song in the Eurovision Song Contest 1971, \"En un mundo nuevo\". The lyrics were by Kraus herself. The song is a soothing ode to friendship in which Kraus sings to an unnamed loved one: \"Hear me, you're not alone/Hear me, you are loved\". Kraus also recorded an English language version of the song, entitled \"With Love\". The song was performed eighth on the night, following Portugal's Nevada with \"Neste barco à vela\" and preceding Turkey's Seyyal Taner & Locomotif with \"Şarkım Sevgi Üstüne\". At the close of voting, it had received 10 points, placing 19th in a field of 22. It was succeeded as Spanish representative at the 1988 Contest by La Década Prodigiosa with \"La chica que yo quiero (Made in Spain)\".

Elagabalus /ˌɛləˈɡæbələs/, also known as Heliogabalus (Greek: Μάρκος Αὐρήλιος Ἀντωνίνος Αὔγουστος; Latin: Marcus Aurelius Antoninus Augustus; c. 203 – March 11, 222), was Roman emperor from 218 to 222. A member of the Severan dynasty, he was Syrian, the second son of Julia Soaemias and Sextus Varius Marcellus. In his early youth he served as a priest of the god Elagabal in the hometown of his mother's family, Emesa. As a private citizen, he was probably named Sextus Varius Avitus Bassianus. Upon becoming emperor he took the name Marcus Aurelius Antoninus Augustus. He was called Elagabalus only after his death. In 217, the emperor Caracalla was assassinated and replaced by his Praetorian prefect, Marcus Opellius Macrinus. Caracalla's maternal aunt, Julia Maesa, successfully instigated a revolt among the Legio III Gallica to have her eldest grandson (and Caracalla's cousin), Elagabalus, declared emperor in his place. Macrinus was defeated on 8 June 218 at the Battle of Antioch. Elagabalus, barely 14 years old, became emperor, initiating a reign remembered mainly for sex scandals and religious controversy. Later historians suggest Elagabalus showed a disregard for Roman religious traditions and sexual taboos. He replaced the traditional head of the Roman pantheon, Jupiter, with the deity of whom he was high priest, Elagabalus. He forced leading members of Rome's government to participate in religious rites celebrating this deity, over which he personally presided. Elagabalus was supposedly \"married\" as many as five times, lavished favours on male courtiers popularly thought to have been his lovers, and was reported to have prostituted himself in the imperial palace. His behavior estranged the Praetorian Guard, the Senate, and the common people alike. Amidst growing opposition, Elagabalus, just 18 years old, was assassinated and replaced by his cousin Severus Alexander on 11 March 222, in a plot formulated by his grandmother, Julia Maesa, and carried out by disaffected members of the Praetorian Guard. Elagabalus developed a reputation among his contemporaries for extreme eccentricity, decadence, and zealotry. This tradition has persisted, and with writers of the early modern age he suffers one of the worst reputations among Roman emperors. Edward Gibbon, for example, wrote that Elagabalus \"abandoned himself to the grossest pleasures and ungoverned fury\". According to Barthold Georg Niebuhr, \"The name Elagabalus is branded in history above all others\" because of his \"unspeakably disgusting life\".

Canal A was a Colombian state-owned privately run national television channel. It was launched March 27, 1972 as Segunda Cadena, since it was the second television channel in Colombia, and replacing Tele 9 Corazón (which in turn had replaced privately owned Teletigre, a local channel covering Bogotá). Until December 31, 1991, it was known as Cadena Dos (\"Network Two\", sometimes spelled Cadena 2). During its existence, Canal A (branded as such in 1992 in order to promote competition with Canal Uno, the other national channel) broadcast programs produced or imported by programadoras (programming companies), which bid for time slots with the Colombian state. While Canal A had been leading Canal Uno for several years up to, including and even briefly after 1998, the conversion of Caracol TV and RCN TV from programadoras to private television channels severely hurt ratings. This, combined with the economic recession of the late 1990s and mounting debts, severely affected the programadoras, which one after another declared bankruptcy or became merely production companies for Caracol TV and RCN TV. Canal A was hit harder than Canal Uno despite its ratings wins; famous companies like Proyectamos Televisión and Coestrellas were among the last companies that left, but they, too, fell to bankruptcy. In June 2003, RTI Colombia, the only programadora which remained on Canal A, was moved to Canal Uno as part of a salvation plan for the failing state TV channels. For five months, the only programs on Canal A came from Audiovisuales, the state production company. By October, it was replaced by the fully state-owned Señal Institucional.

Having ended the previous season as FA Cup finalists and league runners-up to Manchester United, the club went one better in this campaign, by completing the domestic double – their second in four years and third overall. Arsenal won the Premier League by a seven-point margin, were unbeaten away from home and managed the unique feat of scoring in every league game. They lost only three times in the division, all of which at home. At the Millennium Stadium, Arsenal beat Chelsea 2–0 to win the 2002 FA Cup Final. In Europe however, they fared poorly as they were eliminated in the second group stage of the UEFA Champions League. In the transfer window, Arsenal sold several fringe players, notably Nelson Vivas to Internazionale and Sylvinho to Celta Vigo; goalkeeper John Lukic was released following his decision to retire. Goalkeeper Richard Wright was signed as an earmarked understudy to David Seaman, while midfielder Giovanni van Bronckhorst and striker Francis Jeffers were purchased in big money moves from Rangers and Everton respectively. Perhaps the marked signing for Arsenal was the acquisition of defender Sol Campbell, who moved from local rivals Tottenham Hotspur on a free transfer. Manager Arsène Wenger was named Barclaycard Manager of the Year and midfielder Fredrik Ljungberg received the player equivalent – the Barclaycard Player of the Year, in recognition of the team's achievement. Winger Robert Pirès was given the accolade of being the Football Writers' Association Footballer of the Year, while Thierry Henry ended the campaign as club and the league's top goalscorer, the latter for which he was awarded the Premier League Golden Boot. At the end of the season, club captain Tony Adams announced his retirement from football; he was followed by fellow defender Lee Dixon and club goalkeeping coach Bob Wilson.

Jeffrey Theodore Schneider (born December 6, 1952) is an American former professional baseball player. He appeared in 11 Major League games as a relief pitcher for the Baltimore Orioles in 1981. A switch hitter who threw left-handed, Schneider stood 6 feet 3 inches (1.91 m) tall and weighed 195 pounds (88 kg). He is perhaps best remembered for appearing on Cal Ripken, Jr.'s 1982 Topps rookie card. Born in Washington, Schneider attended high school in Illinois before attending Iowa State University. Drafted twice, he signed with neither team, opting to sign with the Philadelphia Phillies as a free agent in 1974. He played five years in their organization, leading the Carolina League in wins and saves in 1977 without making a single start. After the 1978 season, he was selected by the Baltimore Orioles in the Rule 5 draft; he reached the major leagues in 1981 when the Orioles sought to reinforce their roster for the second half of the season. Used exclusively in relief, Schneider appeared in 11 games, recording a save. After the season, he was a minor part of a trade to the California Angels. He split 1982 between their system and the Toronto Blue Jays' organization and finished his career in 1983 in the minors for the Blue Jays.
