The Heist is a British Reality television competition series produced by Shine TV that began airing on Sky One in the UK in 2018. A first series of six episodes premiered on Nov 9, 2018. A second series of 8 episodes premiered on Feb 6, 2020. Series One is available on Amazon Prime Video in the United States.
Premise
The program, similar in format to Hunted (which is also produced by Shine TV), is a competition between a group of ordinary citizens (“The Thieves”) and a team of former police and intelligence officers (“The Detectives”). The Thieves are given the opportunity to “steal” money and escape. The Detectives are told only that a robbery has occurred and then use legal investigative techniques and resources (interviews with the public, access to CCTV feeds and mobile phone records of suspects, vehicle license plate tracking, etc.) to identify the participants, track them down and recover the stolen money (or, if spent, the items purchased). A referee (Kevin O’Leary, former Scotland Yard Detective Chief Superintendent) determines if the Detectives would have realistically and legally had access to requested information; if so, it is provided or recreated by the program.
In Series One, ten Thieves have the opportunity to take up to £ 250,000 (in bills and coins) from an unattended armored car. In Series Two, nine Thieves can take up to £ 1 M after breaking into a bank vault. Each Thief can have an accomplice (friend or family member) drive them away from the “heist” to a location where the money taken will be equally divided (“the slaughter”). The Thieves can then hide or spend their share as they see fit (spending money may increase the risk of being located), while the Detectives attempt to identify them, recover the money and collect enough evidence to legally charge them for the theft. Suspected Thieves can be brought in for questioning, and can be arrested and held for a 24 hour period, pending being charged. Any Thief charged with sufficient evidence loses their share of the money. On the 16th day (20th day in Series 2) the remaining Thieves at large must meet at a pre-determined location to “launder” their remaining cash and escape.

Admiral John Harvey Rainier (29 April 1847 – 21 November 1915) was a Royal Navy officer. He had the unusual distinction of commanding troops from six different nations in action.
Background
Descended from the Huguenot family of Régnier, John Harvey Rainier was the son of the Rev. George Rainier, vicar of Ninfield, and of Sarah Rainier, née Harvey. His elder brother, George Harvey Rainier, was also a naval officer. Another brother, the Rev. W. V. Rainier, was a naval chaplain.
Rainier was descended from two families with long naval connections. On his father's side, he was related to Admiral Peter Rainier, Rear-Admiral John Spratt Rainier, and Captain Peter Rainier. Through his mother, Rainier belonged to a family whose naval associations can be traced back to the 16th century. He was the grandson of Vice-Admiral Sir Thomas Harvey, and the great-grandson of Admiral Sir Henry Harvey and of Captain John Harvey, who fell at the Glorious First of June. At least two of his uncles were also admirals.
Early life and career
Rainier was educated at private schools before entering HMS Britannia in December 1860 as a cadet, scoring first of thirty-four successful candidates. From 1862 to 1866, he served on the Pacific Station in the HMS Tribune, Topaze, Sutlej, Leander, and Alert. Becoming a sub-lieutenant in 1866 and a lieutenant in 1869, he served from 1867 to 1870 on the West African Station in HMS Vestal, Rattlesnake, and Plover, then on the Plover in the West Indies from 1870 to 1871. From 1872 to 1874, he served in HMS Northumberland in the Channel Squadron.
Having specialised in gunnery in 1876, from 1876 to 1880 he was on the staff and senior lieutenant of HMS Excellent, being promoted to commander in 1880. He served on the War Office Committee on Machine Guns in 1880–1, and was secretary to the Committee on Torpedo Instruction in 1884.
Appointed to the command of the composite screw sloop HMS Kingfisher for service on the East Indies Station in 1884, Rainier landed at Zeyla in February 1885 with seamen and Royal Marines to assist in the arrest of mutinous Somali police. The same year, whilst in command of the Kingfisher, he was a member of the Defence Committee of Mauritius, and received the thanks of the Governor. Kingfisher was engaged in anti-slavery patrols off the east coast of Africa, during which he captured several slave dhows.
Promoted to captain in 1887, Rainier was next appointed to the command of the corvette HMS Tourmaline in 1889 on the North America and West Indies Station. He received the appreciation of both the Admiralty and of the Governor of the Leeward Islands for his prompt action during disturbances at Tortola in 1890, the thanks of the French governor of Martinique for taking relief to the island after the fire at Fort de France the same year, and the thanks of the governors of the Leeward and Windward Islands and of Trinidad for various services in 1890–2. He also received the approval of the Foreign Office for the actions he took at Tucacas during a revolution in Venezuela in 1892.
Cretan service
After a short stint in command of the second class protected cruiser HMS Iris in 1893, Rainier took command of the battleship HMS Rodney in 1894. In February 1897, Rodney joined the International Squadron off the coast of Crete the Cretan Revolt against Ottoman rule.
In March, following reports of massacres of Muslims by Christian insurgents, Rainier led an international landing force consisting of 200 British Royal Marines and sailors, 100 men each from Austro-Hungarian and French warships, 75 Russians, and 50 Italian sailors on an expedition inland to Kandanos (also spelt Candanos), which rescued 1,570 Muslim civilians and 340 Ottoman soldiers from Kandanos and 112 Ottoman troops from a fort at Spaniakos (or 3,000 in total according to some contemporaneous sources) and evacuated them by sea. Of the rescued, only one civilian was wounded, while the Christian insurgents lost four killed and 16 wounded.
For his part in the expedition, Rainier was mentioned in despatches and personally thanked by the senior foreign admiral.
Later career
In 1897, Rainier took command of the turret ship HMS Thunderer, and in 1898 he was appointed to command of the battleship HMS Nile, simultaneously appointed for command of the Fleet Reserve at Devonport. The same year, he was granted a captain's good service pension. In May 1898, he was superseded in command of the Nile, but continued in command of the Devonport Fleet Reserve until March 1901, when he was promoted to rear-admiral.
Promoted to vice-admiral on 26 June 1905, he was placed on the retired list at his own request on 1 August that year. Promoted to admiral on the retired list on 5 November 1908, he died in 1915 at St. Margaret's, Southborough, Kent.
Family
Rainier married in 1880 Georgina Mary (Ina) O’Callaghan, daughter of I. Stoney O’Callaghan, barrister-at-law, of Dublin; they had two sons and a daughter. Both of his sons joined the Royal Navy: John Walter Rainier (born 1881) reached the rank of captain and Daniel Harvey Rainier (born 1888) reached the rank of lieutenant-commander.

The Super Golf League (SGL) is a proposed golf league. SGL is owned by LIV Golf, which is financed by the Public Investment Fund, the sovereign wealth fund of Saudi Arabia.
The early framework for a competing golf tour to rival the PGA Tour became public in the fall of 2019 with the Premier Golf League. The PGA Tour responded with a statement from PGA Commissioner Jay Monahan alluding that golfers who choose to play in a new league would no longer be eligible to play in PGA Tour events. Later in 2020, the PGA European Tour and the PGA Tour formed a "strategic alliance" to work together on commercial opportunities, scheduling and prize funds for each tour's membership.
In October 2021, former professional golfer Greg Norman was named the CEO of LIV Golf.
PGA Tour member Kramer Hickok said that league reportedly will have 12–14 events, which will be filled by 40 players with no cut. He also stated "I think there's already been 17 guys that have jumped over [to the Super Golf League]" on The Stripe Show podcast. Ian Poulter was allegedly offered £22 million (US$30 million) to join the league. Lee Westwood said that he had signed a non-disclosure agreement relating to the topic. Rory McIlroy declared the SGL 'dead in the water' after he and several big names committed themselves to the PGA Tour.

Fanindra Nath Bose (2 March 1888 – 1 August 1926) was a Bengal-born sculptor known for his small works in bronze. He worked in Scotland and for sometime was appointed sculptor to the Gaekwar Maharaja Sayajirao III of Baroda.
Life and work
Bose was born in Bohor, Vikrampura, Bengal, son of Babu Taranath Bose. He joined the Jubilee Art Academy and then went to the Government School of Art at Calcutta where he studied under E.B. Havell. He then moved to England and joined the Royal Institution at Edinburgh. He joined the Edinburgh College of Art in 1909 studying under Percy Portsmouth and received a diploma in 1911. A travel scholarship of £100 allowed him to study in Paris under Auguste Rodin and M.J.A. Mercie. He returned to Scotland and set up a studio in Edinburgh, exhibiting first at the Royal Scottish Academy in 1913 two statuettes "The Boy and the Crab" and "The Hunter". The second caught the attention of the Maharaja of Gaekwar who had another copy made for him apart from several other commissions for the Laxmi Vilas Palace and Gardens. The original was bought by Sir William Gascombe John. He visited Baroda briefly and taught sculpture at the Kala Bhavan. Other sculptures by Bose are at the War Memorial, East Lothian, and St. Johns Church, Perth. He was the first Indian member of the Royal Scottish Academy, elected in 1925.
In India, the Modern Review of May 1921 carried a review of his work by Ordhendra Coomar Gangoly under the pen name of "Agastya" who criticized, like nationalists of the period, that Bose's work was "un-Indian".
Personal life
Bose married Mary (or Molly) Ferguson and ran his Dean Studio at 4 Belford Road, Edinburgh.
Death
On 1 August 1926, Bose drowned while angling in a loch near Peebles. He was 38.

The North Dakota Open is the North Dakota state open golf tournament, open to both amateur and professional golfers.
History
The inaugural event was in 1964. The event was one-round long and had a purse of $2,000. Eddie Langert of St. Paul, Minnesota shot a par-72 to win the tournament by three strokes over Corky Dahl, Herb Marcussen, and Paul O'Leary. The following year the tournament increased to two rounds long. In addition, prize money increased to $3,500 and the winner's cheque was now $600. George Shortridge shot an opening round 73 (+1) to take a one-stroke lead. He led by one over Langert and Byron Comstock. A further shot behind were a number of players including Corky Dahl and Fargo's "host pro" Jack Webb. Langert and Webb outplayed all competitors during the final round and were "deadlocked" down the stretch. However, Webb holed a 40-yard approach shot for a birdie at the par-4 18th hole to assure the win. His 70 (−2) was the only under-par round of the tournament. At 145 (+1), Webb defeated Langert by two strokes.
In 1968, the total prize money increased to $10,000. In 1969, at least 42 professionals entered the event, the most ever. As of 1970, the event remained at Fargo Country Club. Before the 1970 tournament it was announced that, "Most of the leading pros in the Dakotas, Minnesota and Canada have indicated they will enter," including Mike Morley, PGA Tour professional. In 1972, Bill Schwenneker, former assistant professional at Fargo Country Club, won the event. In 1973, the winner's prize increased to $1,600. Morley, the PGA Tour pro, won the event. In 1974, Dave Comstock broke Fargo Country Club's course record during the tournament. He shot an opening round 65 breaking Mike Morley's course record. In the early summer of 1975 there were extensive floods in the Fargo region. The tournament, which was scheduled to be played in September, was cancelled by July 18. In mid-1970s, the tournament started to alternate between Fargo Country Club and Oxbow Country Club with the final round at Fargo CC. By the late 1970s, the tournament alternated between Fargo CC and Moorhead Country Club.
In 1980, there was a significant increase in prize money making it the "richest" North Dakota Open ever. The overall purse expanded from $32,000 to $40,000 and the winner's cheque increased from $4,000 to $5,000. In 1981, the winner's prize money had increased to $6,000. In 1984, the tournament started to be sponsored by the Melroe Division Clark Equipment Company. In 1985, Skip Holten broke the tournament record with a 203 total.

William Baker was an 18-year-old African-American man who was lynched in Aberdeen, Monroe County, Mississippi by a white mob on March 8, 1922. According to the United States Senate Committee on the Judiciary it was the 14th of 61 lynchings during 1922 in the United States.
Lynching
Between Okolona and Aberdeen, Mississippi, 18-year-old, farmhand, William Baker was putting a buggy into its shed when the six-year-old daughter of Constable Sidney Johnson got into it. Baker allegedly then took the girl to a shed where she started screaming. Her mother came running and grabbed hold of him. A white mob quickly gathered and hanged Baker. His body was discovered by Sheriff Lewis hanging from a Chinaberry tree. The Chicago Whip writes the lynching took place from Aberdeen, Mississippi.
National memorial
The National Memorial for Peace and Justice opened in Montgomery, Alabama, on April 26, 2018, and features among other things the Memorial Corridor which displays 805 hanging steel rectangles, each representing the counties in the United States where a documented lynching took place and, for each county, the names of those lynched. The memorial hopes that communities, like Monroe County, Mississippi where Baker was lynched, will take these slabs and install them in their own communities.

Lorien Stern is an American artist known for her whimsical drawings and ceramic sculptures of animals.
Work
Lorien Stern attended California College of the Arts in Oakland, graduating with a BFA in 2013. In an interview with Urban Outfitters, she said she entered art school as a painting major, but became drawn to sculpture after making an urn for her father's ashes. She is best known for her colorful, cartoon-like ceramic shark heads. She has said that making the sharks helps with her fear of them and that a theme in her work is, "finding the harmony in sad and happy things and making scary things approachable.” In 2020, she partnered with Edie Parker, a handbag line, to design several handbags and marijuana accessories, with a share of the proceeds going to a criminal justice organization.
Solo exhibitions of Stern's work have been shown at galleries including Breakfast in Santa Barbara, Hashimoto Contemporary in San Francisco, and Park Life in San Francisco. She also sells clothes and accessories with her artwork.

Mount Norton is a 6,397-foot-elevation (1,950 meter) mountain summit located in the Olympic Mountains in Jefferson County of Washington state. It is situated within Olympic National Park, and is set within the Daniel J. Evans Wilderness. Precipitation runoff from the mountain drains north via the Elwha River and Hayes River. Topographic relief is significant as the east aspect rises 3,200 feet (975 meters) above Hayes River in less than one mile, and the west aspect rises 4,400 feet (1,340 meters) above the Elwha valley in two miles. The lower slopes of the mountain are surrounded by forests of Western Red Cedar, Sitka Spruce, Western Hemlock, Alaskan Cedar, Mountain Hemlock, and Douglas-fir.
History
This landform was originally christened "Mount Egan" in 1890 by the 1889-90 Seattle Press Expedition, for John G. Egan (1857–1913), the editor of the Seattle Press newspaper which sponsored the expedition. The mountain's present name is attributable to G.A. Whitehead of the U.S. Forest Service when he renamed the peak in 1925 for his friend and hunting partner, Ernest Norton. The mountain's name has been officially adopted by the United States Board on Geographic Names. Whitehead also named Mount Mystery and Mount Deception.
The first ascent of the summit was made in 1947 by Pat Cummins.
Climate
Based on the Köppen climate classification, Mount Norton is located in the marine west coast climate zone of western North America. Most weather fronts originate in the Pacific Ocean, and travel east toward the Olympic Mountains. As fronts approach, they are forced upward by the peaks of the Olympic Range, causing them to drop their moisture in the form of rain or snowfall (Orographic lift). As a result, the Olympics experience high precipitation, especially during the winter months. During winter months, weather is usually cloudy, but due to high pressure systems over the Pacific Ocean that intensify during summer months, there is often little or no cloud cover during the summer. The months June through August offer the most favorable weather for viewing or climbing this peak.

Paulistania (Portuguese: Paulistânia; lit, "land of the Paulists") is the geographical denomination of the Caipira people, being a cultural area. It is made up of the states of São Paulo, parts of Paraná, parts of the Triângulo Mineiro, the south of Minas Gerais and Goiás, the states of Mato Grosso do Sul and parts of Mato Grosso, a field of influence and exploration by the bandeirantes.
Etymology
The name "Paulistania" is a toponym composed of "Paulist" ("Paulo" composed by the Latin suffix "ist", which comes from the ancient Greek suffix "istes" (ιστεσ), defines the native people of São Paulo state, and 'ia', which means "Land" in Latin. The name was created to be interpreted as "Land of the Paulists", as Lusitania, "Land of Lusitans", Germania, "Land of Germans" and Lithuania, "Land of Lithuanians". The term was coined by Antônio Candido in 2010. People from the region can be called both paulists and paulistanics.
History
Paulistania emerged through bandeirante expeditions on the way to the South American hinterland, giving rise to the Captaincy of São Vicente, later divided into the Captaincy of São Paulo, until reaching the administrative territories, these being parts of the states of Goiás, Mato Grosso do Sul, Mato Grosso, Minas Gerais, Paraná and São Paulo.
Hermes Fontes, in some chronicles written for the Correio Paulistano newspaper between 1917 and 1918, used Paulistania as a synonym for São Paulo. The editor Heitor de Moraes gave Fontes the title: in Moraes ears, "Paulistania" sounded like "Paulist land", just as the Portuguese had their Lusitania and the Germanic peoples their Germania. The term Paulistania was established thanks to a historiography of a conservative nature, linked to the provincial spirit of the Paulists intellectuals, wanting to define a certain territory for the 'Paulist race', a certain territory, it was Alfredo Ellis Junior. who, from 1930 onwards, worked the most on the concept of a Paulistania.
But it was Joaquim Ribeiro, in his work Folklore dos Bandeirantes, from 1946, who proposed that Paulistania was his term, a neologism created "to designate the living space of the old paulists", a noun to be used, from then on, to make reference to the region that, in his opinion, was "one of the fundamental cells of the territorial formation of Brazil." The author believed that, in addition to being useful, Paulistania was a name that came "against the geographical and historical understanding of the region of bandeirism."
The necessary condition for the expansion of the geographic extension of Portuguese America, the bandeirante expeditions, by themselves, did not become a sufficient condition for the creation of a Paulistania. It was from the bandeirante who, for historical reasons, left and did not return to the Planalto do Piratininga that the "bandeirante region" became a "Paulist Land" and, later, "the vital space of the Paulists." From the fixation to the soil, the São Paulo region emerged; of this, Paulistania; and then, its people, culture, experience history. Although administratively and politically, the boundaries and boundaries of this Paulistânia were being changed, reconfigured over time, to unfold in what are now the states of São Paulo, Paraná, Minas Gerais and Goiás, Mato Grosso do Sul and parts Mato Grosso, it can be assumed that the region formed by the "large territory invaded by the bandeiras and entradas" preserved an expressive cultural unit, unified by a common body of understandings, values and traditions in which everyone participated, in a reality in which the variations regional ones never came to threaten the essence of the whole.
It can be said that, from the mid-eighteenth century, a sheet of Caipira culture was spread and consolidated, with local variations, which included, in addition to the Captaincy of São Paulo, parts of the captaincies of Minas Gerais, Goiás, and even from Mato Grosso. Updating the geography, it would not be an exaggeration to say that the route of the Caipira culture expanded and covered the areas that today correspond to several states, including the Missões Region, in the northwest of Rio Grande do Sul, a state strongly influenced by the drovers who left from Sorocaba.
Culture
The basis of Paulistania is the caipira identity. But unlike other regional cultures, which manifest themselves with pride, such as those of the sertanejo or the gaucho people, the caipira culture is always ashamed and dissimulated, something that is neither made explicit nor celebrated. Writers Carlos Alberto Dória and Marcelo Corrêa Bastos recall the well-known episode of "revolt of the inhabitants of Cunha", on the occasion of the publication of a book by Emilio Willems, in which he portrayed the inhabitants of that small town in the Paraíba Valley of São Paulo, using of that category. Perhaps it is due to Monteiro Lobato the fixation of this deleterious image of the caipira, through his character Jeca-Tatu, in Urupês. Even with the mitigating factor that it would not be his fault to be like this, Lobato's redneck is presented as a "'Mumbava', dirty and bad" man, slow, simple, backward, synonymous with the agrarian past to be overcome. In Candido, adjectives give way to less valuable nouns: the caipira culture is that of sociability marked by a certain form of moral conduct in everyday life, ratified by practices of solidarity predominantly based on obtaining the minimum vital for the subsistence of families, something coherent and consistent with the rusticity and lack inherited from its peripheral condition in the territorial and social formation. The rustic cuisine would then follow this line, based on the precarious, the transitory, the peripheral, the rustic, the simple, the improvised.
Musical rhythms
The traditional musical rhythm of Paulistania is the sertanejo music, also called in Portuguese "música caipira" (Caipira music), "sertanejo tradicional" (Traditional sertanejo), "sertanejo raíz" (root sertanejo), "moda de viola", sometimes they call it "velho sertanejo" (old sertanejo), passing the false image that the university sertanejo universitário be the successor of Caipira music, a "new style", due to its popularity.
In this region and from this culture, a modality of popular music was born, Alberto Ikeda, author of the book "Música Na Terra Paulista: From Viola Caipira À Guitarra Elétrica" considered it to be "the music of Paulistania". In the author's words, it is a musicality that is related to the historical formation of São Paulo, making it unique as a paulista. In addition to being a symbol, the violão sertanejo was the guarantor of the expansion of this country music. Setting itself up as a spokesperson for this musicality, the instrument spread throughout Paulistania and, having its identification with the first inhabitants of the region as time passed, it reached the point of making the violeiro an individual of great importance in communication. where to live.
Although caipira music is predominantly related to other expressions, some rhythms ended up also being fixed autonomously, as a musical genre in itself, predominantly for listening, as a popular musical expression of concert, with recognized and expressed authorship. These include: the cururu, the catira/cateretê and the xote, which are originally danced forms, with singing often improvised; the toada and moda de viola, only vocal genres, and the caipira pagode, initially a type of solo instrumental music, of great virtuosity, performed on the viola caipira, and which started to be presented also in the sung version.
Paulistania cuisine
Paulistania is the space where the Guarani and the Portuguese met, through the São Paulo flags and the establishment of human settlements, some temporary, others permanent, where both the reciprocal assimilation of the habits of the two social groups took place, as well as differences that, however, they did not erase the common traits, claimed to be fundamental to caipira cuisine. Among them: the wide and varied use of corn as a fundamental ingredient, the predilection of pork meat over beef, the taste for chicken, preferably caipira chicken, the diversified use of vegetables, all of this giving the contours of an original and unique flavor. In it, corn and pork reign supreme. The provisional condition of certain stops, in the advance towards the interior, favored the cultivation of this grain, with a shorter cycle than cassava.
Mentioning the authors' record regarding the nuances of caipira cuisine, exemplified in the assimilation of certain local products such as pequi in savanna areas, pinhão in mountainous areas and further south, or even fish and the more common use of cassava in areas coastal areas, in what is conventionally called caiçara cuisine. But all this as if it were an additional seasoning to a base that imposes itself and only enriches the complexity of this caipira cuisine. From this common base, local variations emerge: such as the tutu of Minas beans in contrast to the paulists beans virado; pork rice, chicken rice with okra, rice with sausage, pequi rice, all of which come from the habit of mixing rice with locally produced meat or, in the case of pequi, with the fruit, to "enlarge" the food; the barreado of the paranaense coast; the various farofas and the many corn derivatives such as curau, pamonha, cakes and dumplings, viradinho, angus; scrambled foods whose basis is the use of leftovers from lunch or other meals; the empadas and empadões, like the goiano; but also the cambuquiras and preserves that are always present, although in different ways of preparation or with different ingredients here and there.

Brazeau Canyon is in the foothills on the eastern slopes of the Rocky Mountains. It contains alpine and sub-alpine ecosystems. The Brazeau River flows through steep-walled canyons approximately deep and often less than from rim to rim. The park protects the valley and adjacent uplands and includes the former Muskiki Lake Natural Area and the western part of Marshybank Ecological Reserve. It specifically protects the "bed and shore" of the Brazeau River. There are mineral springs that contain sodium, calcium, potassium, magnesium, and other trace elements. The springs are used as mineral licks by elk, deer, and moose as well as providing mineral-rich soils for a variety of plants.
Activities
Backcountry camping and hiking are permitted within the park; there are no developed campsites. The park is focused on protecting the river; however, canoeing and kayaking are permitted. Hunting and fishing are allowed with authorization. Although there are no developed trails, old roads and seismic lines are used for hiking and horseback riding.

Tony Wood is a British-Mexican political writer on Russia.
His 2018 book, Russia Without Putin: Money, Power and the Myths of the New Cold War, has been described by U.S. Russia policy expert Richard Lourie as a "maverick book," used "not to build a case against Putin, nor to forecast Russia's fate after his departure", but rather as a "battle cry of the opposition" against a media and public that is 'overly fixated' on the man. Wood "refutes the idea that today’s standoff is a new Cold War: it lacks any clear ideological dimension," according to Maria Lipman's review, and furthermore, "the kind of capitalism found in Russia today is directly descended from the postcommunist order installed by Putin’s predecessor, Boris Yeltsin. Putin has just consolidated and prolonged Yeltsin’s regime", and the "system will outlast him."
Richard Lourie's review:
Wood’s contrarian spirit extends to the West as well. He apportions it a share of the blame for the current tensions with Russia. In 1990, Gorbachev had been assured by Baker and Geroge Bush that if the two Germanies were allowed to reunite, NATO would not move “one inch east.” To Gorbachev’s enduring chagrin, the major Warsaw Pact countries — Poland, Hungary, and the Czech Republic —were inducted into NATO nine years later, with seven others, including three former Soviet republics, following in 2004. George Kennan, former US ambassador to the USSR and author of the containment theory, was against the expansion. It would inevitably be taken as a hostile gesture, which would only increase nationalism and militarism in Russia. But the West was mighty, rich, and triumphant, and there was nothing Russia could do.
For that reason, it became imperative for Moscow not to “lose” Ukraine to the EU and NATO. It would seem that the annexation of Crimea, the proxy war in East Ukraine, and the recent naval clashes in the Black Sea would indicate that Russia has now achieved its principal objective — creating enough conflict in Ukraine to disqualify it for membership in NATO, which does not accept countries with frozen conflicts or ongoing hostilities.
"Wood sets himself the task of describing today’s Russia not as the result of one man’s will and vision but of the greater forces that preceded his assumption of office, function independently of him in the present, and will outlast him. This a work of background, context, and systemics, not history as biography."

Daniela Maier (born 4 March 1996) is a German freestyle skier who competed at the 2022 Winter Olympics, where she finished fourth place in the ski cross event.
Career
Maier competed at the 2015 FIS Freestyle Junior World Ski Championships and won a silver medal in the ski cross event.
She represented Germany at the 2022 Winter Olympics in the ski cross event and finished in fourth place in the big final. Fanny Smith received a yellow card, and Maier was initially awarded the bronze medal. This was later overturned by the Freestyle and Freeski Appeals Commission. It was decided that Meier officially finished in fourth place, because "the close proximity of the racers at that moment resulted in action that was neither intentional or avoidable".

Wolfert I van Borselen was born in about 1250 to and (according to some) Maria van Egmond.
Wolfert and his older brother Nicolaas were first mentioned on 6 November 1271 as On 1 May 1296 Wolfert and his bastard brothers Raas and Jan were mentioned. In 1303 his brother the Franciscan friar Hendrik Wisse van Borselen was mentioned.
Life
Career at court
In 1276 Wolfert was one of those who sealed a trade agreement between Floris V, Count of Holland and a number of cities in Overijssel and Gelderland. The highest ranking van Borselen was , knight, probably from the main Van Borselen branch. Wolfert was mentioned simply as .
In June 1277 Wolfert, son of Hendrik Wisse of Borselen concluded an alliance with Floris de Voogd, uncle and guardian of Count Floris V. Adelaide of Holland also sealed this alliance. In April 1280 Wolfert was with Floris V's army in the siege of Vredelant Castle. Here is ranked as 6h and final of those mentioned by name. The honorific before his name, indicates that he was a knight by that time.
Becomes powerful on Walcheren
The Van Borselen clan lived in the area between the Western Scheldt and the Eastern Scheldt. At the time this area was called Zeeland Bewesterschelde. The feudal rights on Walcheren were therefore determined by the treaty of Hedensee, which had regulated the feudal rights in the area in 1167. By that treaty, the Count of Holland held the area as fief from the Count of Flanders. The income of the area was split, and there were mixed legal courts.
Wolfert I married Sibilie. In November 1282 Wolfert and his wife transferred their allodial lands near Zandijk and their castle Zandenburg to Beatrix of Holland, wife of Floris V. She then granted it back in fief inheritable by sons, daughters, and all other relations. Floris confirmed these acts. This act laid the foundations for the power of Wolfert's Van Borselen branch, because it could amass wealth over generations. Other fiefs in Zeeland could be inherited by sons only, and even had to be partitioned if there was more than one son.
By 1284 Wolfert was a knight, when he was mentioned in a charter that gave the traders of Dordrecht freedom of toll for their shipping. During this time Wolfert still had a lot of influence at court. In 1290 Wolfert and many others in Zeeland Bewesterschelde rebelled for the first time, but they were already reconciled in October 1290.
Rebels against Holland
In November 1291 Wolfert and his oldest son paid homage to the Count of Flanders in exchange for 100 pounds a year. In 1293 and 1294 he was indeed paid by Flanders for his services. On 1 May 1296 the knights Wolfert van Borselen, Rase and Jan van Borselen brothers and Gielis van den Poelen were reconciled again with Count Floris V. Claims that he was involved in the assassination of Floris V on 27 June 1296 are unfounded.
All powerful in Holland and Zeeland
Now Wolfert's power reached its zenith. Floris V' son John I, Count of Holland (1284-1299) lived in England when he was assassinated. Already on 16 September 1296, King Edward of England asked Wolfert for help. In January 1297 Edward then promised that he would not make peace with France without France releasing Wolfert's sons, who were imprisoned there. It was a logical follow-up of the action which had cost Floris' life, i.e. to bring Holland in the English alliance.
On 1 Aril 1297 promised to follow Wolfert's council in everything. This allowed Wolfert to significantly extend his own possessions. He had Woerden, Beverwijk and Oudewater granted to him. However, this was not shown to have been illegal. Wolfert succeeded in saving Holland from the chaotic situation after the death of Floris V. Attacked from all sides, Wolfert succeeded in keeping its enemies at bay.
Meanwhile, Wolfert married a second time in 1297, to Catharina de Durbuy, daughter of Gerard of Luxemburg, Lord of Durbuy, and Mechteld van Kleef. Catharina was widow of Albrecht of Voorne, Lord of Voorne and burgrave of Zeeland. She was also the mother of Gerard van Voorne squire to Floris V.
Lynched in Delft
However, in time his power gave rise to jealousy. During a rebellion he was imprisoned and killed in Delft on 1 August 1299.
Marriage and offspring
From the last will of Wolfert's son Hendrik Wisse, we know Wolfert's children as they were alive in 1303. A detailed list was given by Obreen. It was repeated by Regt in a more concise form.
Wolfert II van Borselen (c. 1280–1317) Lord of Zandenburg, married Aleid of Avesnes, bastard daughter of John II, Count of Holland. He was not designated as a knight in the last will of Hendrik Wisse, so he might have been younger than him. Wolfert II was a knight in 1308.
Heilwig van Borselen (died c. 1329), married Gerard van Voorne, son of Catharina de Durbuy.
Sir Hendrik Wisse van Borselen knight, who made his last will in 1303. From the Dutch naming conventions we can assume that he was the oldest son, because he was named after his grandfather. Another reason is that he was already a knight in 1303.
Floris, deceased 21 June 1344 and buried in Middelburg. He was a knight in 1308. Usually designated as Floris of Veere.
Frank (d. 1316) Squire in 1308
Claes I van Borselen (d. 1357), Squire in 1308. Lord of Brigdamme, buried in Middelburg.
Cibilie, was maried to Jan van Culemborg in 1328

Peter Pett (died 1589) was an English master-shipwright at Deptford.
Life
Peter Pett is described as the great-grandson of Thomas Pett of Skipton in Cumberland. But Skipton is in Yorkshire, and, though some of his kin may have settled in the north, it is more probable that he belonged to the family of the name which early in the fifteenth century owned property at Pett in the parish of Stockbury in Kent. Heywood stated in 1637 that for two hundred years and upwards men of the name had been officers and architects in the Royal Navy. It appears well established that Pett's father, also Peter, was settled at Harwich, probably as a shipbuilder. Pett himself was certainly in the service of the Crown from an early age; he was already master-shipwright at Deptford in the reign of Edward VI, and there he continued till his death on or about 6 September 1589. During this time he had a principal part in building most of the ships of the navy, though the details are wanting. Richard Chapman, who built the Ark, was brought up by Pett, and so also, in all probability, was Matthew Baker, with whom, from 1570, Pett was associated in the works at Dover. In 1587 he and Baker accused Sir John Hawkyns, then Treasurer of the Navy, of malpractices in connection with the repair of the Queen's ships. The charges were apparently held to be the outcome of pique or jealousy. Hawkyns was annoyed, but suffered no material injury, and Pett remained in his office. In 1583 he was granted arms, or, on a fess gules between three ogresses, a lion passant of the field; and the crest, out of a ducal coronet, a demi-pelican with wings expanded. He was twice married. By his first wife he had at least two sons: Joseph, who succeeded him at Deptford as master-shipwright, and died on 15 November 1605; and Peter, who carried on business as a shipbuilder at Wapping. By his second wife, Elizabeth Thornton, sister of Captain Thornton of the Navy, he had also two sons – Phineas, and Noah, who in 1594 was master of the Popinjay with his uncle Thornton – and four daughters, one of whom, Abigail, was cruelly beaten to death with a pair of tongs by her stepfather, Thomas Nunn, in 1599. Nunn, who was a clergyman, received the Queen's pardon for his crime, but died immediately afterwards.

Marun Al Naqqash (Arabic: مارون النقاش) (1855–1817) was a Sidon-born Maronite who produced the first theatre play texts in Arabic language.
Early life and education
Al Naqqash was born in Sidon on 9 February 1817 into a Maronite family. In 1825 his family moved to Beirut where he studied Arabic language, literature in addition to law and foreign languages, including French, Italian and Turkish. He also involved in poetry, Oriental music and was educated as a bookkeeper.
Career and activities
Following the completion of his studies Al Naqqash began to work as a chief clerk at the customs department and became a member of the chamber of commerce in Beirut. He traveled to Damascus, Aleppo and Egypt for business. In 1846 he went to Italy where he was introduced the Italian theatre and opera. After he returned to Lebanon he translated The Miser, a play by Molière, into Arabic and published it with the title Al-bakhīl in 1847 which was the first Arabic play text. Al-bakhīl was written in the standard Arabic and in verse rather than in prose which made it ready for musical performance.
Al Naqqash also established a theatre near to his Beirut home after granting a permission from the Ottomans where Al-bakhīl was performed in 1847. Then he produced two original plays in 1850 and 1853. The first one was Abu Al Hasan al-Mughaffal aw Harun Al Rashid (Abu Al Hasan the Gullible or the Caliph Harun Al Rashid) which was an adaptation of the One Thousand and One Nights. This second play was also performed at his theatre. His last play was entitled Al Salit al-Hasud (The Impudent and Jealous Young Man) which was also performed.
Personal life and death
His nephew, Salim Al Naqqash, also involved in theatre and formed a theatrical troupe.
Al Naqqash went to Tarsus on 19 September 1854 for business. While staying there he died of fever on 1 June 1855 at age 38.

Special landing field Lüneburg (ICAO airport code EDHG) is an airfield near Lüneburg in Lower Saxony state, Germany. It is approved for motor planes, motor glider, microlights and gliders up to a maximum weight of 2000 kg. Helicopters are approved up to a weight of 5700 kg and balloon rides can be undertaken from the airfield. It serves the Lüneburg region as a popular destination for families as well as for external private pilots and Lüneburg business people. The airfield thus fulfills an important task as an infrastructural hub and for club life in the Lüneburg Heath region.
Before civilian use, today's airfield was an air base of the Wehrmacht Luftwaffe, before and during the Second World War. At least 14 major active flying gruppes and geschwaders (without school and supplementary units) were stationed here between 1938 and 1945, including Kampfgeschwader 4 and Kampfgeschwader 100.
On April 18, 1944, during an air raid on Lüneburg, the Lüneburg Air Base was bombed by about thirty aircraft and was extensively damaged. In Spring 1945, the airfield was captured by British forces, and given the Advanced Landing Ground code B 156. Amongst RAF squadrons which may have used the airfield are Nos 3, 107, and 182. Both Numbers 400 and No. 414 Squadron RCAF were disbanded here on 7 August 1945. No. 430 Squadron RCAF was also disbanded here the same month. All three RCAF squadrons were part of 39 (Reconnaissance) Wing, which is reported to have disbanded at Luneberg itself on 2 August 1945.
After the war ended, the airfield came under the control of the British Air Forces of Occupation; No. 652 Squadron RAF was based here from 1 December 1947 to 1 May 1949. Upgrading work took place in connection with the Berlin Airlift in the second half of 1949. No. 46 Group RAF disbanded here in October 1949.
No. 54 Squadron RAF Regiment, a ground defence squadron, was located at Luneberg in the later half of 1951, but then was moved to RAF Gatow in early 1952.

The 1995–96 season was Ulster Rugby's first season under professionalism, during which they competed in the IRFU Interprovincial Championship and the inaugural Heineken Cup. Brian Bloomfield was in his second season as coach. 35-year-old Malone RFC centre Bill Harbinson, who first played for Ulster in 1986, was captain, in his final season before retirement from the game.
At this stage the Irish provinces were still representative teams, not professional clubs. Many involved in the game were concerned that domestic clubs could not afford to pay players, who could be lost to professional teams in England. In September, the IRFU confirmed that, for this season, only senior international players would be paid, with a one-year moratorium on payment for club and provincial players. Up to 35 Ireland players would be offered £26,000 contracts for the 1996 Five Nations Championship. That squad included Ulster players Jonathan Bell, Allen Clarke, Jeremy Davidson, Maurice Field, David Humphreys, Paddy Johns, Denis McBride and Mark McCall. As the situation developed, match fees became available for Heineken Cup and Interprovincial matches, with players who appeared in all six matches in line to receive almost £3,000.
Heineken Cup
The Heineken Cup was launched in the summer of 1995 on the initiative of the then Five Nations Committee to provide a new level of professional cross border competition. Twelve sides representing Ireland, Wales, Italy, Romania and France competed in four pools of three with the group winners going directly into the semi-finals. English and Scottish teams did not take part in the inaugural competition. Toulouse went on to become the first European cup winners, beating Cardiff in extra time in front of a crowd of 21,800 at Cardiff Arms Park.

White Gull Creek is a river in the Canadian province of Saskatchewan. The river's source is White Gull Lake, near the south-western boundary of Narrow Hills Provincial Park and near the southern slopes of the Cub Hills. The river travels through boreal forest and muskeg en route to its mouth at the Torch River. The Torch River is a tributary of the Saskatchewan River as it flows into one of North America's largest inland fresh water deltas, the Saskatchewan River Delta. There are no communities nor settlements along the river.
Description
White Gull Creek begins at White Gull Lake in the Northern Saskatchewan Administration District and flows in a south-easterly direction for about 150 kilometres until it meets up with the Torch River in the RM of Torch River No. 488. White Gull Lake, at deep and in size, is located east of Candle Lake and south-west of Narrow Hills Provincial Park. For the first leg of White Gull Creek, it heads due east and is paralleled by Highway 120. At the point where the river starts to head south-east, Highway 120 turns course and heads north-east, crossing the river. Highway 106 crosses the river farther downstream. The forests along course of the river consist of jack pine, poplar, spruce, and willow and the geography consists of muskeg and rolling hills.
Brook trout
Brook trout were first introduced to White Gull Creek in 1949 and, with subsequent plantings, became naturalised. The trout are continually being stocked biannually to supplement the naturalised population. Brook trout were first introduced to the Cub Hills in 1934 with the stocking of McDougal and Lost Echo Creeks. Since then, the fish have been introduced to 25 rivers in the hills with five of those rivers now supporting populations of naturalised, self-sustaining feral brook trout. The other rivers include Nipekamew Creek and Mossy River. All seven of Saskatchewan's trout species can be found in the Cub Hills.

In Mandaeism, Nbaṭ () is an uthra (angel or guardian) who is described as the "King of Air" or the "first great Radiance." He is also called Nbaṭ Rba ("the Great Nbaṭ") or Nbaṭ Ziwa ("the Radiant Nbaṭ").
In Mandaean scriptures
In chapter 3 of the Mandaean Book of John, Nbaṭ and the uthras Gubran, Yawar, Bihram, and Yukabar lead a rebellion against Yushamin and his 21 sons, who are led by ʿtinṣib Ziwa ("Transplant") and his elder brother Sam. Yawar slays 12 of Yushamin's sons, while Bihram slays 9 of them.
Right Ginza Book 14 is named after Nbaṭ and is called the Book of the Great Nbaṭ. The book considers Nbaṭ to be the initial "sprout" that had sprung out during the beginning of the creation of the universe, and also depicts the uthra Yawar as having emerged from Nbaṭ during the creation.
Nbaṭ is also mentioned in Qolasta prayers 22, 25, 374, and 376.

Peter Pett, son of Peter Pett (1593 – 1652), master-shipwright at Deptford, grandson of Peter Pett of Wapping, shipbuilder, and great-grandson of Peter Pett (died 1589), was baptised in St. Nicholas Church, Deptford, on 31 October 1630. He was educated in St. Paul's School and at Sidney-Sussex College, Cambridge, where he was admitted in 1645. After graduating BA he migrated to Pembroke College, Oxford, and in 1648 was elected to a fellowship at All Souls'. He then graduated BCL in 1650, was entered as a student at Gray's Inn, and settled there "for good and all" about a year before the Restoration. From 1661 to 1666 he sat in the Irish Parliament as MP for Askeaton. He was called to the bar from the Middle Temple in 1664. When the Royal Society was formed, in 1663, Pett was one of the original fellows, elected on 20 May, but was expelled on 18 November 1675 for "not performing his obligation to the society". He was probably absorbed in other interests. He had been appointed Advocate-General for Ireland, where he was knighted by the Duke of Ormonde.
He was also much engaged in literary work, more or less of a polemical nature. A short tract of his, headed Sir Peter Pett's Paper, 1679, about the Papists, is in the Public Record Office. His published works are:
A Discourse concerning Liberty of Conscience, London, 1661, 8vo.
The Happy future Estate of England, 1680, fol.; republished in 1689 as A Discourse of the Growth of England in Populousness and Trade … By way of a Letter to a Person of Honour.
The obligation resulting from the Oath of Supremacy …, 1687, fol.
He edited also the Memoirs of Arthur [Annesley], Earl of Anglesey, 1693, 8vo, and The genuine Remains of Dr. Thomas Barlow, late Lord Bishop of Lincoln, 1693, 8vo.
Pett died on 1 April 1699. He has been often confused with his father's first cousin, Peter, Commissioner of the Navy at Chatham.

MV Cape Lobos (T-AKR-5078), (former MV Laurentian Forest), was a Cape L-class roll-on/roll-off built in 1972.
Construction and commissioning
The ship was built in 1972 by Port Weller Dry Docks, St. Catharines, Ontario. She was delivered to be used by Burnett Steamship Company as MV Laurentian Forest in November of the same year.
The ship was sold to Carlton Steamship Co. as MV Grand Encounter in 1985. She became the first vessel on scene during the recovery effort of Air India Flight 182 in June 1985. Grand Encounter carried 20 bodies from the wreck to Dublin.
In 1985, she was sold to Piute Energy & Transportation Co., Cleveland as MV Federal Seaway until 1986, as she would be again be sold to the Department of Transportation's Maritime Administration to be used in the Ready Reserve Force as MV Cape Lobos (T-AKR-5078) together with sister ship MV Cape Lambert (T-AKR-5077). She would be operated by the Military Sealift Command when activated. In September 1986, 200 M1A1 Abrams were transported by Cape Lobos to Germany from Toledo.
On 10 August 1990, together with her sister ship were activated to transport military equipments from Bayonne to Ad Dammam, Saudi Arabia during Operation Desert Storm and Desert Shield. She would once again be deactivated in 1992. A contract of $3.4 million for the G&M Welding & Fabrication Service, Galveston from the US Navy was made on 11 August 1992, for the repair of Cape Lambert and Cape Lobos. In 1994, Cape Lambert and Cape Lobos were put into the Wilmington Reserve Fleet, North Carolina.

"Celebrate Summer" is a song by English rock band T. Rex, which was released in 1977 as a non-album single. The song was written and produced by Marc Bolan. "Celebrate Summer" was the last T. Rex release before Bolan's death in a car crash on 16 September 1977.
Recording
"Celebrate Summer" was recorded at AIR Studios in April 1977. After the release of T. Rex's twelfth studio album Dandy in the Underworld in March 1977, Bolan spent April recording in Decibel Studios then AIR Studios. From the sessions at AIR Studios, he remixed and partially re-recorded the title track for its upcoming release as a single and recorded "Celebrate Summer" with T. Rex bandmates Herbie Flowers on bass and Tony Newman on drums.
Writing for Record Mirror in 1977, Bolan said, "'Celebrate Summer' has a very definite new wave feel about it. If anyone thinks it is deliberate they are quite right. I know a good thing when I hear it, and am young enough to enjoy adrenalin-rush rock."
Release
"Celebrate Summer" was released by EMI Records on 12 August 1977. It was issued in a special picture sleeve bag. The song failed to garner significant airplay on BBC Radio when it was released, but did generate play on Radio Luxembourg and Radio Clyde.
To promote the single, T. Rex performed the song on Bolan's British TV series Marc on three occasions, with broadcast dates of 24 August, 31 August and 21 September, the latter being a posthumous broadcast after Bolan's death on 16 September. The episode broadcast on 7 September also featured the song being danced to by the dance troupe Heart Throb.
In the Record Mirror Reader's Poll for 1977, "Celebrate Summer" reached number 4 in the 'best single/album sleeve' category.
Critical reception
On its release, Edwin Pouncey of Sounds felt "Celebrate Summer" had a "strong punk influence" and considered it to be Bolan's "best [single] for ages". Charles Shaar Murray of New Musical Express wrote, "For one golden instant I thought Marc had finally pulled off the unalloyed pop triumph that he needs as a convincing viable follow-up to 'Get It On'. This isn't it, but it's certainly the most likeable single he's made for a very long time, even though it borrows the melody and chord sequence of the Deviants' 'Let's Loot the Supermarket'."
Robin Smith of Record Mirror considered the song to be Bolan "return[ing] to his former glories". He said, "A sound reminiscent of his early days that takes off faster than a flight of white swans." Stan Sayer of the Daily Mirror commented, "Is Bolan really feeling his age or is he going, tongue in cheek, back in time with this chirpy little rock 'n' roller? The words may be modern, but the beat isn't. Still, a great combination."
In a retrospective review of the song, Dave Thompson, writing for AllMusic, described the song as "a thunderous re-creation of Bolan's classic old sound fed through the fiery updating of its punk rock legacy". He noted the "simple ingredients" of "pulsing guitar, heart-attack percussion, and a lyric which stands among the key anthems" and believed the song should have achieved "enormous" success. Mark Paytress, in his 2002 book Bolan: The Rise and Fall of a 20th Century Superstar, considered it to be "merely a quirky piece of upbeat pop" with only "a few seconds of blistering white noise guitar" recalling a new wave sound.

The Grassy Mountain Coal Project was a proposed open-pit coal mine near Crowsnest Pass, Alberta, Canada. The project was denied by the Alberta Energy Regulator and the Canadian federal government, on the grounds of significant adverse environmental effects. The project was a flashpoint for widespread public outcry against coal mining in the eastern slopes of the Rocky Mountains.
Background
In June 2020, the Government of Alberta revoked the 1976 Coal Development Policy, which prohibited coal mining on the eastern slopes of the Rocky Mountains, protecting 1.5 million hectares of land. Following that decision, 169 new leases were issued for coal exploration between June 2020 and February 2021. The policy was later reinstated in February 2021, but the existing leases remained in place.
Project Proposal
The Grassy Mountain Coal Project was proposed as an open-pit metallurgical coal mine covering 6918 acres. It was expected to produce 4.5 million tonnes of processed coal per year, with an expected lifespan of 25 years. The proposal was put forth by Benga Mining Limited, a subsidiary of Riversdale Resources Limited, an Australian company. The coal would have been primarily destined for export to India and China. Steve Mallyon, managing director of Riversdale Resources, stated the justification for the project was based on the expected economic benefits from foreign investment, with commitments to customers in Asia and Europe.
Public Response
The proposed coal mine generated widespread public condemnation on the basis of environmental and cultural concern. It gained notoriety among the public after local country music artist Corb Lund spoke out against it in beginning in January 2021. Lund continued to lead the public opposition, via social media and a protest concert featuring local landowners in June 2021. In October 2021, Lund released the song “This Is My Prairie,” a collaboration with other prominent Alberta artists including Terri Clark and Brett Kissel, which detailed the importance of the natural environment of Southern Alberta and specifically criticized coal mining in the eastern slopes.
Opponents to the project included ranchers, landowners, Indigenous groups, environmentalists, and others. A Leger poll conducted in 2021 determined that 77% of Albertans were concerned about the environmental impact that coal mining would have on rivers, and 58% believed that the economic benefits would not outweigh the environmental damage. In communities across Alberta, numerous lawn signs decrying coal mining and supporting the protection of clean water were placed in the yards of Alberta residents. As a result of this opposition, Alberta Energy Minister Sonya Savage convened an independent coal policy commission and public consultation, which elicited over 1000 emailed documents, 170 written submissions, and 67 meetings province-wide. Eight Alberta municipalities formally expressed concerns about coal mining in the eastern slopes, including Lethbridge, Turner Valley, High Level, Okotoks, and Canmore.
First Nations
Local first nations, including Siksika and Kainai Nation, expressed opposition to coal mining in the Rocky Mountains and launched a legal challenge against the revocation of the 1976 coal policy. They cited the importance of Crowsnest Mountain as a sacred cultural site, and the danger to species such as grizzly bears, big horn sheep, bull trout, and elk, as well as the watersheds of the Oldman and Livingstone Rivers. However, they did not specifically oppose the Grassy Mountain Coal Project. Siksika Nation was willing to support this project on the basis of meaningful consultation, but opposed any future coal mining applications. A nearby coal project at Tent Mountain resulted in the decline of positive relations between another coal company, Montem Resources, and the Kainai and Siksika First Nations. In letters filed with the Impact Assessment Agency of Canada, Kainai and Siksika stated Montem's consultations to be transactional and not meaningful.
Environmental Assessments
In June 2021, the Alberta Energy Regulator denied Benga Mining's application for the Grassy Mountain Coal Project due to environmental impact. On August 6, 2021, the projected was rejected by Minister of the Environment Jonathan Wilkinson on the basis of the Canadian federal government's environmental assessment. According to subsections 5(1) and 5(2) of the Canadian Environmental Assessment Act 2012, it was determined that the project was “likely to cause significant adverse environmental effects,” which were not justified under the circumstances. The assessment cited concerns for surface water quality, the impacts on key species such as the westslope cutthroat trout, the whitebark pine, and the little brown bat, and the loss of lands used for traditional activities by the Kainai, Piikani, and Siksika First Nations. Similar coal projects nearby in British Columbia were found to have resulted in excessive fish deaths due to increased selenium in the water supply, resulting in a $1.4 million fine for Teck Resources.
Ongoing Contention
According to Alberta law, the costs of expert testimony, legal advice, and research incurred by citizens appearing before regulators are supposed to be paid by the project proponents. As of December 2021, there are $1.3 million in outstanding claims among four environmental groups, one municipality, one First Nation, and one individual. However, Benga Mining is contesting those claims and seeking a reduction in the amount owed.
The Eastern Slopes Protection Act was introduced in the Alberta Legislature by Rachel Notley, leader of the official opposition party, in April 2021. As of February 2022, the Act has not yet passed.

Eberhard von Sayn, sometimes Eberhardus de Seyne or Everart de Saine (died 1258), was a Teutonic Knight, Grosskomtur, Landmeister and finally Grand Marshal of the Teutonic Order from 1251 to 1254.
Biography
Eberhard von Sayn came from a family of counts whose ancestral seat was Sayn Castle, in Rhineland-Palatinate and north of Koblenz. It is assumed that Eberhard may have been the grandson of Count Eberhard II von Sayn, founder of the cadet branch of the family.
It is not known when Eberhard joined the Teutonic Order, but appeared in sources for the first time in 1249, when he was already a great commander. At that time he was in Palestine, acting in place of Grand Master Heinrich von Hohenlohe who was not present in Palestine. In 1251, he assumed the position of Landmeister of Prussia. In the autumn of the same year, on the instructions of the new Grand Master Günther von Wüllersleben, he left for Prussia and Livonia. Despite being ordered to oversee the Baltic provinces, Eberhard von Sayn is presumed to have exercised effective power during his stay in both provinces. In Prussia he took over from the absent Landmeister Dietrich von Grüningen, while in Livonia he replaced Landmeister in Livland Andreas von Felben.
The first province he visited was Prussia, where on 1 October 1251 he ordered the rebuilding of the destroyed Toruń and Chełmno. Upon learning of the difficulties of functioning of the monastic state in Prussia, Eberhard turned to the Grand Master who was in Acre for help. A messenger, in the person of Brother Ottone, returned from the Holy Land with a set of statutes that regulated the functioning of the new province and its relations with the highest religious authorities, who were based in Venice. Eberhard von Sayn promulgated these statutes, most likely in early 1252. The next stage of Eberhard's mission was in Livonia, where he remained from summer 1252 to spring 1254. During this period, acting as interim Landmeister, he managed to resolve the relations between the Teutonic Order and the local bishops, specifically in Riga, Dorpat, Ösel and Courland. He also contributed to the construction of Memel Castle in 1252 and led at least one armed expedition against the Samogitians.
After his success in arranging the internal affairs of the two monastic provinces, Eberhard von Sayn resigned from the post of Landmeister of Prussia and probably returned to the Holy Land. It is also assumed that upon his return to Palestine he assumed the position of Grosskomtur until at least September 1257. Eberhard von Sayn died in 1258.

The first season of The Challenge: All Stars premiered on Paramount+ on April 1, 2021. The season featured twenty-two past cast members of the main series competing for $500,000.
Contestants
Casting
Several potential cast members were asked to appear with some being chosen as alternates and flown out to Argentina for the entirety of production. Alternates included Casey Cooper & Ryan Kehoe of the Fresh Meat season of The Challenge, Sophia Pasquis from Road Rules: The Quest, Heather Cooke from 2011's The Real World: Las Vegas, and Cohutta Grindstaff of The Real World: Sydney.
Format
All Stars features a daily challenge, nomination process and an elimination round.
Daily Challenge: Players compete in the main challenge either individually or in teams. For team challenges, teams elect a male and female captain before the challenge begins. The winning player (for individual challenges), or winning team captain (for team challenges) of the designated gender is immune from elimination while the respective losing captain or player of the designated gender is automatically sent into the elimination round.
Nominations: Players besides the captains of the winning and losing teams (for team challenges), or both individual winners and the last-place player (for individual challenges), participate in nominations to select a second player of the designated gender to compete in the elimination round. They are given a chance to discuss the nominations before voting in an open vote. The player who receives the most votes will participate in the elimination round.
Eliminations (The Arena): The nominated player participates in an elimination round against the same-gender captain of the losing team, or the last place player from the daily challenge depending on the structure of the daily challenge. The winner remains in the game while the loser is eliminated.
Starting at the 5th episode, it was announced that the remaining eliminations for the season would be double eliminations in which two players are eliminated. The losing male and female players, or captains, from the daily challenge form a team. The nominated player must then call-out a partner of the opposite gender to form their opponents for the elimination; the gender of the nominated player alternates each episode. The winning team remains in the game while the losing team is eliminated.
Twists
Lifesaver: Implemented for the first four episodes, the winning player or winning team captain of the non-designated gender for the elimination round is granted the Lifesaver. At the Arena, they must choose whether or not to use the Lifesaver to save the nominated player from competing in the elimination. In the event that the Lifesaver is used, the players eligible to vote (this time excluding the saved nominee) must publicly vote to select a replacement nominee for the Arena.
Gameplay
Challenge Games
Deep Blue Dive: Played in two teams of eleven, teams solve a series of math equations one at a time. After solving an equation, one player must swim and dive to collect a cubic puzzle piece with the answer printed on it. Teams continue this process until they collect all eleven puzzle pieces, and each team player must enter the water at least once. If a player is unable to collect a puzzle piece, or collects an incorrect puzzle piece, their team is assigned a five-minute penalty and another player must collect the puzzle piece instead. The first team to collect all eleven puzzle pieces and solve the final equation wins.
Winners: Arissa, Beth, Big Easy, Darrell, Jemmye, Jisela, Kendal, Nehemiah, Teck, Trishelle & Yes
Ancient Challenge History: Played in male and female heats, players begin on a structure above water with three platforms in front of them. One at a time, players are asked a question about previous seasons of The Challenge. If they answer incorrectly, they must step onto the next platform. Each subsequent platform is able to withstand less weight than the previous one. Players are eliminated from the challenge if they fall through a platform that cannot withstand their weight or reach the third and final platform. The last player of each gender standing wins, while the first female to fall into the water is automatically sent into elimination.
Winners: Aneesa & Nehemiah
Melt Away: Played in five teams of four, teams must use their bodies to melt through two giant blocks of ice and collect four shields frozen inside. After an extended period of time, teams are given two hammers to assist them. Teams are issued a five-minute penalty for any shields they break. Once teams collect all four shields, they return to their station to find six additional shields, each with a previous season of The Challenge printed on it. The first team to place all ten seasons in chronological order wins.
Winners: Darrell, KellyAnne, Kendal & Syrus
On the Ropes: Played in four teams of five, with two teams playing at a time. Teams begin on opposite platforms above water. Each team has a set of five ropes that connect the two platforms. One team member at a time must cross their ropes to reach the opposite platform before returning to their platform. Once back, they may unclip one of their opponent's ropes. Players are eliminated from the challenge if they fall in the water. The process continues until one team has unclipped all of their opponent's ropes. The team that unclips the most ropes the fastest wins.
Winners: Aneesa, Derrick, Mark, Ruthie & Yes
Connect Em All: Beginning in three teams of six, teams complete their first checkpoint which involves solving a series of math equations, where the solutions correspond to letters that form a phrase. Once complete, teams must then carry a heavy log uphill to the second checkpoint and disband into male-female pairs. The second checkpoint requires pairs to replicate a memory board using colored tiles. Once complete, pairs disband to compete as individuals and must carry a smaller log downhill to the finish line. The first male and female to cross the finish line wins while the last male and female to cross the finish line are automatically sent into elimination.
Winners: Kendal & Laterrian
Escape the Room: Played in four teams of four, with two teams playing at once. Teams begin in a container above water, with each team member standing on a trapdoor in front of their puzzle. Each member must solve their puzzle before their trapdoor opens. At intervals, the trapdoors open, dropping one team member into the water each time. The team with the most puzzles solved wins.
Winners: Big Easy, Jonna, Laterrian & Ruthie
Rib Cage Pass: Two players at a time begin harnessed on opposite sides of a speeding truck. They must cross a series of beams attached to the truck and collect a ball at the opposite end, before returning across the beams to deposit the ball. Players continue this process until they collect all four balls or reach the time-limit. The male and female with the most balls collected win while the male and female with the least balls collected are automatically sent into elimination. In the event that multiple players are unable to collect a ball, the losing player is determined by the number of beams traversed.
Winners: KellyAnne & Mark
Arena games
Pole Wrestle: Players begin at the center of the Arena and place both hands on a metal pole. The first player to wrestle the pole out of their opponent's hands twice wins.
Played by: Ace vs. Laterrian
Knot So Fast: Players have 20 minutes to create as many knots as they can using a 200-foot rope within an octagonal structure. After those 20 minutes are up, players switch positions and must untie their opponent's knots. The first player to untie their opponent's knots and place the rope inside their circle wins.
Played by: Kendal vs. Trishelle
Going out of Tile: Prior to the challenge, players must consume two Carolina Reaper peppers. On T.J's go, players must run inside an open structure with tiles inserted inside of the frames. They must break all of their corresponding colored tiles, including the tiles on the roof, before returning to their starting circle. The first player to return to the start wins.
Played by: Nehemiah vs. Teck
Wall Ball: Players begin with four walls connected to a rope and must pull the rope to separate the walls. Once separated, they must throw a ball over the first wall and punch their way through the wall, continuing this process with all four walls. The first player to punch through all four walls wins.
Over and Under: Teams begin with four walls connected to a rope and must pull the rope to separate the walls. Once separated, one teammate must throw a ball over the first wall and punch their way through the walls, while their partner must climb over the walls before depositing their ball at the end. Teams repeat this process five times. The first team to deposit all five balls wins.

Final Challenge
At the starting line, host T.J. Lavin announces that players complete a series of checkpoints in male-female pairs to earn points based on their placements. The player with the greatest total points at the end of the Final Challenge is declared the winner and will receive $500,000. Additionally, the last pair to reach the second checkpoint is eliminated.
The first pair to complete each checkpoint receives 5 points; second receives 4 points; third receives 3 points; fourth receives 2 points; fifth receives 1 point. After each checkpoint, members from the winning pair choose a player of the opposite gender (that they haven't already partnered with) as their partner for the next checkpoint. The process continues with the next highest-ranked players from the previous checkpoint choosing their teammate from the remaining unpaired players.
Day One
Checkpoint #1: Players individually complete a triangular geometric puzzle. Once a male and female player complete their puzzle, they pair up and must paddle a canoe across a lake to the next checkpoint. The last team to reach the next checkpoint is eliminated.
Eliminated: Derrick & Jisela (11th place)
Checkpoint #2 & #3 (Part 1): Teams use provided parts to assemble two bicycles and, while tethered together, ride them towards a puzzle board. At the puzzle board, they must solve two pentagram-shaped puzzles so that the numbers on the five points have the same sum.
Checkpoint #3 (Part 2): Teams must run up an elevating path while tethered together to reach the next checkpoint.
Checkpoint #4: Each team member must consume two Carolina Reaper peppers and solve a puzzle before proceeding along a path to the next checkpoint.
Checkpoint #5 & Overnight Stage: Each team member must consume a serving of barbecued offal to complete the checkpoint. For the Overnight Stage, players remain with their partner from Checkpoint #5. One team member may sleep at a time on the end of a large seesaw while their partner stands on the other end to level the apparatus. If the player standing falls or steps off, they must switch places with their partner.
Day Two
Final Leg (Checkpoint #6): As individuals, players must race to the top of a mountain where the finish line is located. It was announced that the checkpoint was worth "double points" where the first player to reach the top receives ten points, the second player receives nine points and so on with the tenth player receiving one point. After each player has reached the top, the results are announced. The player with the most points is declared the winner of All Stars and receives $500,000.
Winner: Yes (31 points)
Runner-up: Darrell (29 points)
Third Place: Jonna and KellyAnne (24 points)
Fifth Place: Mark (22 points)
Sixth Place: Alton (20 points)
Seventh Place: Jemmye and Ruthie (17 points)
Ninth Place: Aneesa (13 points)
Tenth Place: Big Easy (9 points)

In the fourth chapter, Nṣab Ziwa () admonishes his father Yushamin over his rebellion.
The eighth chapter gives an account of Nṣab bringing a petition for forgiveness for Yushamin to the King of Light (malka ḏ-nhura), who accepts it against the wishes of Manda d-Hayyi, and cautions the latter for hating Yushamin for refusing him a wife. The ninth is a dialogue between Yushamin, Manda d-Hayyi and Nṣab; the tenth is a monologue by Yushamin.
