"TV TEM Bauru"
],
[
"Introduction",
"'''TV TEM Bauru''' (channel 26) is a Brazilian television station based in Bauru, a city in the state of São Paulo, affiliated with TV Globo.",
"It is owned-and-operated by Traffic Group as of 2003 under the TV TEM banner, which also owns three other stations under said name in the inland of São Paulo, and covers approximately 95 municipalities.",
"Its studios are located in the Jardim Bela Vista neighborhood, and its transmission antenna is in the Jardim Ouro Verde neighborhood."
],
[
"History",
"===Background===In the 1950s, Italian-Brazilian businessman João Simonetti, founder of Rádio Clube Bauru, Bauru's first radio station, decided to establish the city's first television station.",
"Still during the Getúlio Vargas government, Simonetti asked the president to grant him a television channel, which was granted to him only at the end of the decade, in 1959.He also invested around Cr$7.5 million in necessary equipment for the creation of the station, and also signed a contract with Mário Wallace Simonsen's REBRATEL, enabling the possibility to install 1000 television sets in the city.",
"Still in 1959, viewers were able to see TV Bauru operating on an experimental basis on VHF channel 2.===TV Bauru (1960-1984)===On August 1, 1960, TV Bauru was officially founded, the first television station in the interior of São Paulo and also in a Brazilian state (existing stations until then had only been founded in capital cities).",
"The station was responsible for producing several variety programs, musical shows, the news program Nosso Jornal, and even a local telenovela that was written and also starred by Clorinda Resta.",
"Several professionals from the city's radio stations also migrated to the new means of communication.However, the difficulties in maintaining a high-profile television station were enormous.",
"There were few advertisers for the channel, and with money missing from the till, many employees received payments after the due date.",
"All these factors led Simonetti to sell the station to Organizações Victor Costa in October of the same year.",
"With the purchase, there was also a considerable increase in the programming range, with the addition of North American slots and programs relayed from TV Paulista, which was also owned by OVC.In May 1965, Organizações Victor Costa were sold to Roberto Marinho, who incorporated his outlets into Organizações Globo.",
"With this, TV Bauru became an owned-and-operated station of Rede Globo, together with TV Paulista, which in 1967 was renamed TV Globo São Paulo.",
"Under the direction of Arceno Athas, local productions are gradually being phased out, and only journalism is being prioritized.",
"The programs Globo Interior and Globo Agora à Noite stood out at that time, which were produced and also presented by journalists such as Roberto Purini, Edson Fagnani, João Dias Antunes and Fred Calmon.",
"However, these programs were gradually replaced by Jornal Nacional, broadcast via satellite.In 1971, with the emergence of Jornal Hoje, the station created a local version of the newscast presented by Alonso Padilha, however, this was gradually replaced by the São Paulo version presented by Marília Gabriela.",
"The station reached the end of the 1970s with only a reporting team made up of reporter Jair Acetuno, cameramen Moacir Mendonça and Walcir Coelho, and lighting designer Carlos Corrente, who together only produced articles shown during Jornal das Sete, produced in São Paulo.",
"On February 28, 1980, the station started showing a 2-minute local block of JS, which on January 3, 1983, was replaced by SPTV.===Rede Globo Oeste Paulista (1984-1998)===The outlook remained the same until 1984, when the Central Globo de Affiliadas e Expansão emerged to improve and revitalize all the journalism of Globo's owned-and-operated stations and affiliates.",
"In the meantime, on October 24, 1984, TV Bauru was renamed Rede Globo Oeste Paulista.",
"US$2.5 million were invested in the purchase of new equipment and the creation of branches in the municipalities of São José do Rio Preto, Marília and Presidente Prudente, and three months later, a branch was also created in Araçatuba, covering 260 municipalities from the interior of the state.",
"The number of journalism teams now stood at 11, and SPTV, which until then occupied only a small block of news bulletins generated in São Paulo, gains two editions, at 12:45 pm and 7:45 pm.On April 21, 1986, the station's branches in Araçatuba and São José do Rio Preto were separated, and TV Globo Noroeste Paulista was created, also following the same pattern as the Bauru station.",
"On July 9, 1990, Rede Globo stations in São Paulo replaced SPTV with SP Já, with the first edition being relayed from Globo São Paulo, and the second produced locally by TV Globo Oeste Paulista.On April 11, 1994, with the return of Jornal Hoje to the state of São Paulo, the first edition of SP Já also began to be produced by Globo Oeste Paulista.",
"It was also in that year that, with the emergence of TV Fronteira Paulista, on June 1, the broadcaster stopped covering the Mesoregion of Presidente Prudente, restricting its coverage, which in 1984 was from 260 municipalities to 113 municipalities.",
"In 1996, SP Já was extinguished and the station returned to produce SPTV.===TV Modelo (1998-2003)===In the late 1990s, Central Globo de Affiliadas e Expansão launched the \"Projeto Regional do Futuro\", which aimed to give greater autonomy to Rede Globo's O&Os in inland São Paulo and also to TV Globo Juiz de Fora in Minas Gerais, as well as the expansion of local programming and interaction with the local community.",
"With this, TV Globo Oeste Paulista is renamed TV Modelo, and new programs werre also created, such as Modelo Esporte, shown before the São Paulo version of Globo Esporte; Comunidade no Ar, a bulletin shown during the program that showed actions by philanthropic entities, NGOs, among others; Interação, a weekly magazine program shown on Saturdays, and Nosso Campo, a program about local agribusiness, which was produced together with TV Fronteira, TV Progresso in São José do Rio Preto and TV Aliança Paulista in Sorocaba.",
"The station also showed Terra da Gente, which was produced by EPTV Campinas.Regional campaigns and projects were also implemented, such as the \"Campanha do Agasalho\", \"Semana da Faxina\", \"Música na Praça\", \"Recreança\", as well as \"Ação Global\", carried out in partnership with SESI, as well as sporting events such as the Copa TV Modelo de Futsal and the Copa de Vôlei de Praia TV Modelo.",
"All of these events aimed to bring the identity of the broadcaster and others even closer to the region where they were established, and most of them still occur today.",
"This regionalization also affected the broadcaster's journalism, when SPTV, following the remodeling of Globo's local journalism standard, began to have an editorial line closer to the community.In 2002, Organizações Globo incurred a huge debt resulting from investments in Globosat channels and pay TV companies, which exceeded R$2 billion in October of that year.",
"As a way to alleviate expenses, Rede Globo sold its shares in 15 broadcasters in which it had a stake or were owned by it.",
"In this way, 90% of TV Modelo's shares, along with another 90% of TV Progresso in São José do Rio Preto and TV Aliança Paulista in Sorocaba were sold to businessman José Hawilla (owner of the Traffic Group, a sports marketing company), for a value between R$120 and 180 million.===TV TEM Bauru (2003-present)===On May 6, 2003, with the purchase already approved by CADE and the Ministry of Communications, the TV stations in Bauru, Sorocaba and São José do Rio Preto began to form TV TEM (acronym for '''T'''raffic '''E'''ntertainment and '''M'''arketing), which together with the Itapetininga station, founded on the same day, it now covers 318 municipalities in the interior of São Paulo, totaling 49% of the state of São Paulo.",
"TV Modelo then changed its name to TV TEM Bauru, and the programs shown until then were extinguished and replaced by Bom Dia Cidade, successor to the local block of Bom Dia São Paulo, and TEM Notícias, successor to SPTV .",
"The remaining programs will be produced by TV TEM Sorocaba, the network's parent company."

"Joseph Garrucho"
],
[
"Introduction",
"'''Joseph Garrucho''' (1712–1785) was a Jesuit missionary to Mexico, who served at Mission Los Santos Ángeles de Guevavi and Mission San Miguel Arcángel de Oposura.",
"He was implicated in the events leading up to the Pima Revolt of 1751."
],
[
"Biography",
"=== Early life ===Garrucho was born on March 27, 1712, in Sardinia, and entered the Society of Jesus on January 6, 1731.He left Sardinia for Spain on October 23, 1740, and left Spain for the Americas in February 1744.His ship, the ''San Francisco'', was boarded by English privateers, who marooned the Jesuit passengers near Puerto del Príncipe.",
"The Jesuits received a warm welcome at the port, and remained there for about a month before proceeding to Havana and thence to Mexico City.=== Mission work ===In early 1745, Garrucho set out for the Pimería Alta.",
"There, Ignacio Xavier Keller installed him as resident missionary at Mission San Rafael de Guevavi, which Garrucho renamed to San Miguel de Guevavi.",
"Shortly after Garrucho's arrival, the Pima fled the mission ; with the help of Pedro Vicente de Tagle Bustamante, a captain from the nearby Presidio San Felipe de Gracia Real de Terrenate, Keller and Garrucho were able to bribe the natives into returning.Some of the natives baptized by Garrucho at the Guevavi mission were sold into slavery immediately afterwards.",
"For example, baptismal records show that on April 22, 1746, Garrucho baptized a five- or six-year-old native, giving him the name of José Luis.",
"Juan Timotheo de Robles bought the child on behalf of Nicholás Romero, a local ''gente de razón''.Guevavi was struck by three major epidemics during Garrucho's tenure, in 1747, 1749, and 1751.Garrucho offset the consequent reductions in population by bringing Pima into the mission, sometimes by bribery, sometimes by force.",
"He assigned them to various forms of agricultural labor on the mission ranch, where they sometimes worked more than the three days per week allowed by law.Garrucho made his solemn vows on December 10, 1748, at Mission Nuestra Señora de la Asunción de Arizpe.",
"By 1751, the mission was prosperous enough that Garrucho commissioned master builder Joaquín de Casares to plan a new church, built with Pima labor.",
"Work began late that summer.",
"In the fall, Garrucho hosted Luis Oacpicagigua and his warriors, visiting the mission on their way to assist the Spanish against Apache forces.=== Pima revolt ===On September 29, 1751, Garrucho threw a large celebration for the feast of San Miguel.",
"Attendees included Nicholás Romero; Miguel Valenzuela, a retired sergeant; Juan Manuel Ortiz, from Agua Caliente; Francisco Padilla, a prospector; Gabriel Antonio de Vildósola, son of ; Francisco Xavier Pauer, a missionary; and Pedro de la Cruz, Oacpicagigua's right-hand man.",
"During the festivities, Garrucho confronted de la Cruz, who was carrying a ceremonial baton; according to some accounts, he seized the baton, saying \"You are a dog because you are carrying that .",
"Don't come here disturbing the people.",
"If it was not for the day that this is, I would have given you a hundred lashes with a whipping stick.",
"\"Two months later, on November 21, foreman Juan de Figueroa arrived from Presidio San Ignacio de Tubac with news of the Pima Revolt, led by Oacpicagigua.",
"The natives fled the mission, and Garrucho followed.",
"He stopped at Mission Santa María Suamca, where he heard de la Cruz's confession, before taking refuge at San Felipe.",
"He subsequently relocated to Mission San Miguel Arcángel de Oposura.The revolt was suppressed; Oacpicagigua's peace conditions included a demand that Garrucho return the Pima servants he had taken with him to Oposura.",
"In the subsequent Spanish investigation, Diego Ortiz Parrilla blamed the Jesuits, especially Garrucho and his foreman.",
"Garrucho was accused of kidnapping Pima children and of beating natives without cause.Jesuit Joseph de Utrera conducted an internal investigation, during which he questioned local ''gentes de razón'', military figures, and natives, including the native governors of several missions.",
"Ignacio, native governor of Guevavi, testified that Garrucho had slapped the natives and ordered them whipped, and that Ignacio's own father had died of lingering injuries after Garrucho beat him with a stick.",
"Juanico, native governor of Mission San Ignacio de Sonoitac, testified that Garrucho had seized land belonging to him and a group of other Pima.",
"Garrucho, in his own defense, argued that Oacpicagigua had begun fomenting rebellion well before any of the incidents involving Garrucho.The investigations continued for eight years, but were ultimately inconclusive.",
"On June 28, 1759, the Spanish government recommended that the case be closed.",
"Elisabeth Farnese, on behalf of Charles III of Spain, signed a ''cédula'' closing it on September 27 of that year.=== Later life ===Garrucho remained at Oposura for fifteen years, during part of which time he served as Father Visitor of Sonora.",
"By 1765, he had learned to speak Ópata, the local language.",
"He gained a reputation among his Spanish peers for his pride and for the luxurious table he set.In July 1767, Spanish soldiers arrived to carry out the orders of Charles III by expelling the Jesuits from Mexico.",
"Along with about fifty other Jesuits Garrucho was escorted to a church in Mátape, near Hermosillo.",
"From there, the soldiers took them to Guaymas, across the Gulf of Mexico, through Tepic, and to Guadalajara.",
"Many of the Jesuits died on the way, but a few, including Garrucho, survived to reach Cádiz in Spain.From Cádiz, most of the Jesuits were sent to a hospice in El Puerto de Santa María, but Garrucho was taken to Madrid and imprisoned there.",
"He was later confined in a Hieronymite monastery; he remained even after the authorities told him he was free to go, and ultimately died there in 1785."

],
[
"Closure",
"Joan & David affirmed the closure of all 12 stores by the end of July 2000.The company filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in March, attributing its downfall to an overly aggressive expansion strategy and internal family conflicts regarding handling continuous losses over five years.The business was put on the market in 2000, with all involved Helpern family members either accepting pay cuts or departing from the company.",
"The company cut salaries for its founder Joan, who fiercely opposed bankruptcy, David, the co-founder, chairman, and company treasurer, and their son, David Jr., senior vice president.",

"February 2024 nor'easter"
],
[
"Introduction",
"The '''February 2024 nor'easter''' was a quick-moving but powerful and disruptive nor'easter that brought widespread effects primarily in the Mid-Atlantic and New England regions of the Northeastern United States.",
"Developing from a combination of an upper-level low and an area of low-pressure in the Southwestern United States on February 10, the system first brought heavy snow to the Texas Panhandle the following day.",
"It then moved northeastwards across the Ohio Valley, causing impacts before beginning to consolidate into a more defined low as it approached the East Coast.",
"The system then began rapid deepening as a nor’easter it moved offshore early on February 13, bringing heavy snowfall to much of the Mid-Atlantic.",
"The system departed later that day, but not before bringing impacts to Atlantic Canada before peaking and gradually weakening thereafter, eventually dissipating on February 18.Many cities in the Northeast and the Mid-Atlantic, particularly New York City, were expected to receive the heaviest snowfall accumulation in at least two years due to the nor'easter, although the storm was notable for being difficult to predict in the aforementioned regions in the hours leading up to the event.",
"For example, forecasts for Boston released on the morning of February 12 predicted at least a foot of snow, but when the storm moved through the New England region the following day, it hardly dropped any snow on the city after taking a more southerly course.",
"Flights were cancelled or delayed across the Mid-Atlantic, and millions spanning from Pennsylvania to Massachusetts were placed under winter storm warnings.",
"Over 175,000 people across the Northeast lost power, due to the heavy wet nature of the snow, and the nor'easter was responsible for at least one death so far as of February 13.Separately, the system dumped at least in parts of Texas and Oklahoma causing severe impacts in the region as well."
],
[
"Meteorological history",
"The setup for a potential coastal storm in the Northeastern United States was evident as early as the afternoon of February 8.Uncertainties as to how the system would develop, how much cold air would be available and how the upper-level features would evolve in the run up to the event.",
"The primary factors expected in the development of the system involved an upper-level shortwave trough that would eject out of the Southwest, leading to coastal development.",
"By February 10, the aforementioned feature began developing in the Southwest, and due to limited cold air, heavy wet snow affected the northern parts of Texas and Oklahoma.",
"A weak area of low pressure developed along the Gulf Coast and trekked northeastwards throughout February 11–12 across the Southeast as the system as a whole continued eastward.",
"At 09:00 UTC, the Weather Prediction Center deemed it necessary to begin issue storm summary bulletins for the winter storm.",
"At that time, precipitation mostly consisted of rain showers and squalls, with isolated wet snow in the colder regions of the atmosphere near the upper-level low.",
"Later on February 12, a primary low-pressure area began to consolidate in the Tennessee Valley, strengthening as it moved eastwards and as precipitation began to slowly move into the Mid-Atlantic states.",
"As the system became a nor'easter and moved offshore, rapid deepening – known also as \"bombing out\" – commenced overnight, with the central pressure falling from at 09:00 UTC on February 13 to at 03:00 UTC on February 14, a drop of in 18 hours.",
"As this process commenced during the early morning hours on February 13, precipitation rapidly switched from rain to heavy snowfall along much of the Mid-Atlantic, with rates approaching per hour in the northwestern and northeastern portions of New Jersey and Pennsylvania, respectively, which led to the heaviest snowfall totals of the event in those areas.",
"The nor'easter moved quickly, with precipitation and snowfall ending across the Mid-Atlantic and eventually New England by evening that day; consequently, the WPC terminated storm summary bulletins for the departing nor'easter at 03:00 UTC on February 14.The system continued to rapidly deepen afterwards as it began impacting Atlantic Canada with heavy snow and gusty winds, peaking at a minimum pressure of at 18:00 UTC that day while located south of Nova Scotia.",
"The system slowly began weakening thereafter as it moved further into the North Atlantic Ocean."

"Additionally, a commercial vehcile ban was set to go into effect at midnight and state offices were to open on a delayed schedule.",
"Morris County residents were advised to think twice before traveling, and snowplows and equipment were loaded with salt to begin pre-treating major roadways such as Interstate 280 that evening.In southern New York, where New York City and the surrounding regions and boroughs were expected to receive at least of snow – the heaviest expected for the city since a blizzard in January 2022, schools moved to online learning for February 13.Westchester County declared a state of emergency late on February 12, in order to ensure the safety of its citizens.====New England=========Connecticut and Rhode Island=====Connecticut closed some of its schools and business for February 13.Governor Ned Lamont also announced that a tractor-trailer ban was going into effect at midnight.",

"But its exhilarating rhythms, the powerful rhythm and horn section, and Drake's unparalleled drumming make this album a real joy.",

"Alan Alborov (politician)"
],
[
"Introduction",
"Alborov meeting with the Chairman of the Russian Duma, Vyacheslav Volodin'''Alan Alborov''' is an Ossetian politician from the partially recognized Caucasian Republic of South Ossetia, which most of the UN recogonizes as part of Georgia, occupied by Russia.",
"Alborov has served as the founding chairman of the Nykhaz political party, as well as the mayor of the capital city of Tskhinvali, and as speaker of the Parliament of South Ossetia."
],
[
"Early life",
"Alborov was born to an urban middle-class family in Tskhinvali.",
"He had a successful career as a businessman in Russia, where he and his brother, Oleg, made a small fortune selling vodka in North Ossetia.",
"During this period both Alborovs were arrested and convicted under Article 330 part 2 of the Criminal Code of Russia for kidnapping the daughter of a business rival and the pair were sent to a penal colony in Siberia for three years.Alborov was named by President Leonid Tibilov as the head of housing and communal services in the Leningor District after a long period of absence from his homeland."
],
[
"Political career",
"===Mayoralty===After Tibilov introduced Alborov to politics he quickly elevated his position in Tibilov's entourage, being named the mayor Tskhinvali in 2013.At the same time Tibilov, a political independent, tasked Alborov with creating for him a pro-government political party to unite his supporters.",
"Alborov's political party was named Nykhaz, literally meaning \"speech\" or \"meeting.",
"\"Alborov's leadership of the party would be brief, as he would be replaced as chairman by Ruslan Gagloyev early in 2014 so he could prepare for the 2014 election.",
"After the 2017 election saw Tibilov's re-election bid be defeated, Alborov was replaced as mayor by the new president, Anatoly Bibilov.===Parliamentarian===Prior to being named speaker, Gagloev was elected to the Parliament of South Ossetia for Nykhaz in 2019.Since 2020 Nykhaz, Unity of the People and the People's Party entered a governing coalition.",
"Additionally, Alborov served as chairman of the committee on natural resources.===Speakership===Following the 2022 election, Nykhaz's Alan Gagloev secured the Presidency and moved to limit the power and influence of the former ruling party, United Ossetia.",
"This included pressuring incumbent Speaker, Alan Tadtaev, to resign with Alborov being named to the position after defeating another United Ossetian cannidate, the chairman of the defense and security committee, Atsamaz Bibilov.",
"Alborov was officially sworn in as speaker on September 15, 2022.On December 15, 2022, Alborov went on a state visit to Russia where he met with the chairman of the Russian Duma, Vyacheslav Volodin.",
"The pair discussed future cooperation between Nykhaz and United Russia and to establish an “inter-parliamentary” bilateral commission to promote cooperation.",
"During the meeting, Volodin referred to South Ossetia as an independent state, instead as either part of Russia or Georgia, and that the relationships between the states of Russia and South Ossetia are “based on the principles of equality, good neighborliness and mutual respect.”On July 5, 2023, Alan Tekhov, chairman of the committee on economy, small business and agriculture, and Zaza Driaev, chairman of the profile committee, proposed a motion to investigate possible Belarusian recognition of South Ossetia as an independent state.",
"Speaker Alborov approved the motion and opened an official investigation for further elaboration."

"Schultzsuchus"
],
[
"Introduction",
"'''''Schultzsuchus''''' is an extinct genus of pseudosuchian from the Triassic Santa Maria Formation of Brazil.",
"Initially described as a species of ''Prestosuchus'', a 2024 study found the taxon to differ in multiple aspects of its anatomy, enough to warrant it being placed in a distinct genus.",
"Unlike ''Prestoscuchus'', which is a more derived member of Loricata, ''Schultzsuchus'' appears to have been a basal member of the clade Poposauroidea."
],
[
"History and naming",
"The remains of what is now called ''Schultzsuchus'' were first described under the name ''Prestosuchus loricatus'' by German paleontologist Friedrich von Huene in 1938, who had recovered the fossils of this pseudosuchian from the Cynodontier Sanga of the Santa Maria Supersequence in 1928/29 and regarded the animal as having been congeneric with ''Prestosuchus chiniquensis'', also named by him.",
"While ''Prestosuchus chiniquensis'' saw several additional finds attributed to it over the years, making it one of the best understood early pseudosuchians, ''P.",
"loricatus'' received much less attention.",
"This was in part due to the nature of the material, which consisted of a singular tooth crown, some vertebrae, elements of the hindlimbs as well as osteoderms.",
"In 1942 von Huene tentatively referred some additional vertebrae and a calcaneum to this taxon, but he himself was uncertain of this assessment.",
"The validity of ''P.",
"loricatus'' eventually came into question, with several authors regarding this a possibility.",
"Krebs (1976) and Barberena (1978) regarded the species to have probably been synonymous with ''P.",
"chiniquensis'', though Krebs remarked that a comprehensive study of the type material was required to tell for sure.",
"Parrish (1993) seemed to follow this interpretation as well, combining material of both species interchangeably when scoring it for a phylogenetic analysis.",
"Kischlat went further by arguing that the type material of ''P.",
"loricatus'' actually belonged to two different animals, which he named ''Karamuru vorax'' and ''Abaporu loricatus''.",
"However, these names are regarded as somewhat problematic, as ''Abaporu loricatus'' was only mentioned a single time with no other occurrences of the name within the same publication.",
"Furthermore, no formal proposition of a new generic name was made, no holotype was proposed and even the given specimen number is noted for being flawed according to Desojo and Rauhut.",
"Ultimately, both ''Karamuru'' and ''Abaporu'' are regarded as nomina nuda.",
"A thorough examination of the type material of ''Prestosuchus loricatus'' was eventually published by Desojo and Rauhut in 2024, who agreed with Kischlat (2023) in so far that the material did represent a taxon distinct from ''Prestosuchus'', which they dubbed ''Schultzsuchus''.",
"''Schultzsuchus'' was named in honor of Cesar Schultz, who was noted for his contributions to the understanding of the vertebrate fauna of the Santa Maria Supersequence."
],
[
"Description",
"''Schultzsuchus'' is only known from limited material thought to have belonged to a single individiual, though this is sometimes called into question.",
"Among the material are the tip of a tooth, the neural arch of the axis vertebra, three additional neural arches of the neck vertebrae (one of which complete), partial cervical and dorsal ribs, four tail vertebrae and the neural arch and neural spine of two more.",
"Fossils of the hindlimbs are also known, namely both ischia still in articulation, a single calcaneum and a few metatarsals.",
"Finally, several osteoderms have also been described for this taxon.",
"The only known skull remains of ''Schultzsuchus'' consist of a single tooth crown.",
"The element is conical in shape and stout, but with laterally compressed sides and carinae that feature partially abraded serrations (ziphodont).",
"The tooth is recurved, causing the mesial carina to be convex in shape, while the carina facing towards the back of the jaw is straight.",
"The only carina well-enough preserved to show the amount of serrations is the mesial carina, which has about 10 denticles across , which is only slightly lower than the amount seen in ''Heptasuchus''.",
"There has been some doubt on the assignment of the tooth to ''Schultzsuchus'' given the fact that it's an isolated element not directly associated with any other material while also having been found with the fossils of a synapsid.",
"However, the shape does suggest that it belonged to what was likely a paracrocodylomorph or some other predatory archosaur.A notable feature that distinguishes ''Schultzsuchus'' from ''Prestosuchus'' is the fact that the cervical vertebrae preserve epipophyses, which are generally absent from pseudosuchians bar some exceptions.",
"Desojo and Rauhut describe the epipophyses of ''Schultzsuchus'' as being high ridges that are clearly set apart from the postzygapophysis that they protrude from, anatomy best matched by ''Revueltosaurus'' (a stem-aetosaur), dinosaurs, ''Stagonosuchus'', ''Rauisuchus'' and ''Postosuchus alisonae''.",
"Similarly, an epipophysis is also present on the second neck vertebra, the axis, which is even less common and stated to be present in ''Revueltosaurus'', ''Longosuchus'', ''Xilousuchus'' and possibly ''Effigia''.The neural spine of the neck vertebrae also represents a markedly different anatomy from ''Prestosuchus'' and most other basal loricatans.",
"In those forms the neural spine tends to be short from the front to the back and tall, keeping a relatively consistent rectangular profile and being notably thickened.",
"''Schultzsuchus'' meanwhile has neural spines is visibly longer anteroposteriorly and shaped like a fan, owing to the spinous process expanding towards the top most edge of the bone.",
"Even more so than the presence of epipophysis, this element could suggest affinities with poposauroids, as Desojo and Rauhut note that the only other pseudosuchians with such neural spines are ''Xilousuchus'', ''Qianosuchus'', ''Arizonasaurus'' and ''Mandasuchus'', all of which appeared as poposauroids in their 2024 publication on ''Schultzsuchus''.The elongated neural arches might indicate that ''Schultzsuchus'' had elongated neck vertebrae, a notion that might find additional support in the presence of just such a vertebra from the type locality.",
"While this bone was originally assigned to a saurischian, its anatomy is similar to that of a poposauroid, with some taxa within this group even having elongated necks.",
"Though Desojo and Rauhut do not concretely assign the vertebrae to ''Schultzsuchus'', further study could change that.The ischium, of which both elements are preserved in articulation, preserves a large pit on the surface where the bones would articulate with the ilium.",
"Such a pit is absent in ''Prestosuchus'' and seen in some, but not all, poposauroids.",
"''Schultzsuchus'' also lacks the longitudinal depression that is found across the shaft of most early Loricatan ischia and is thus considered a synapomorphy of the clade by Desojo and Rauhut.The calcaneum, the heel bone, of ''Schultzsuchus'' has a tuber that is much higher than it is broad, which is the exact opposite of ''Prestosuchus'', in which the tuber is broader than it is high.",
"Both did possess a pit in the underside of the tuber, but it is noted as being much shallower in ''Schultzsuchus''."
],
[
"Phylogeny",
"Several phylogenetic analysis were run to determine the position of ''Schultzsuchus'' among pseudosuchians, yielding some results that stand in stark contrast to the position of ''Prestosuchus''.",
"Both the equally weighted and implied weighted suggest that ''Schultzsuchus'' was not a prestosuchid but rather an early diverging member of the clade Poposauroidea.",
"''Mandasuchus'' and ''Mambawakale'' were also derived as poposauroids in more basal positions than ''Schultzsuchus'', but according to Desojo and Rauhut it would only take a few steps for either of them to be recovered within Loricata.",
"''Schultzsuchus'' meanwhile was recovered as the sister taxon of ''Qianosuchus'' and all more derived poposauroids (consisting of Poposauridae, Shuvosauridae, ''Lotosaurus'' and Ctenosauriscidae).",
"This is primarily based on two anatomical characters shared with poposauroids (both relating to the neck vertebrae) and the absence of traits seen in the derived members of the clade.",
"The only analysis that fail to recover these results are those with higher weighing strengths, which instead place ''Schultzsuchus'' as being placed in a more derived position than ''Saurosuchus'' towards the crown of Pseudosuchia."

"2020–2022 catalytic converter theft ring"
],
[
"Introduction",
"From 2020 to 2022, an organized criminal group operated in the United States to steal and resell catalytic converters across state lines.",
"By the end of the investigation into the interstate ring, it was discovered that approximately $545 million was generated, with the majority of that money being generated by DG Auto Parts.",
"The money earned by DG Auto Parts would then be separated between the owners of the company, with the rest being paid out to several regional theft rings supplying the catalytic converters.",
"The investigation was described as the first national dismantling of a catalytic converter theft ring."
],
[
"Background",
"A catalytic converterA catalytic converter is a typically oblong-shaped vehicle emissions control device that makes up part of an automobile's exhaust system.",
"The catalytic converter uses a chemical reaction using heat and precious metals such as platinum, rhodium, and palladium (PRP) contained within the device to transform toxic engine exhaust gases into less-toxic pollutants.",
"The inclusion of a catalytic converter in automobiles became mandatory in the United States with the Clean Air Act of 1975.From 2001 to 2021, the price of PRP rose dramatically; platinum rose from $530 per ounce to about $1100 ($ to $, adjusted for inflation).",
"This rise in precious metals prices and the relative ease of surreptitiously removing catalytic converters from vehicles led to an epidemic of thefts targeting the device for sale to scrap dealers.According to a 2023 report by the National Insurance Crime Bureau, metal recyclers will often \"pay between $50 to $250 for a catalytic converter and up to $800 for one that was removed from a hybrid vehicle.\"",
"They also mention that \"it can cost between $1,000 and $3,500 or more to replace a catalytic converter that is stolen, depending on the type of vehicle.",
"\"In prior years, thefts of catalytic converters were already on the rise.",
"In a 2021 report, the National Insurance Crime Bureau stated that \"in 2018, there were 1,298 catalytic converter thefts reported.",
"In 2019, it was 3,389 reported thefts.",
"In 2020, reported catalytic converter thefts jumped massively to 14,433, with December leading the way with 2,347 thefts, or roughly 16 percent of the yearly total – in just one month.\"",
"In the 2023 report, they stated that \"based on insurance claims, thefts of catalytic converters increased significantly from 2020 through 2022\".",
"In addition, there were 16,660 insurance claims for catalytic converter thefts in 2020, a number that had increased to 64,701 by 2022.The report also stated that the highest rate for catalytic converter theft claims between 2020 and 2022 was California, with 24,102 thefts reported to insurers.",
"In 2022 alone, an average of 1,600 catalytic converters were reported stolen each month in California."

[
"Initial investigation",
"In February 2021, a man called Tyler Curtis posted a Facebook Marketplace advert seeking catalytic converters.",
"Investigators using a fake profile messaged him, asking \"how much do you buy and does it matter where they came from...\" Curtis responded, \"I buy as many as you got and no.",
"\"On May 2, 2021, the Tulsa Police Department received a report from an off-duty officer, saying he had spotted a \"suspicious white pickup truck\" that drove through southeastern Tulsa with \"multiple catalytic converters in the bed.\"",
"The Tulsa Police Department dispatched two officers, who found the vehicle and stopped it in a residential area.",
"Of the two occupants in the vehicle, Curtis was the driver.The officers asked whether he had a firearm in the vehicle, to which he said there was.",
"The officers then asked for him to step out of the vehicle, after which he was handcuffed, allowing the officers to search the vehicle.",
"Upon searching the vehicle, they discovered a loaded handgun, a small bag containing three grams of cocaine and eight grams of heroin and a bundle of cash amounting to $9,900.Upon later inspection, a total of 128 catalytic converters were found in the bed of the pickup truck.",
"The officers then called a lieutenant who had recently been working with the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) to investigate a wave of thefts of catalytic converters that started months prior.",
"Upon reading Curtis his rights, the lieutenant asked him where he had gotten all of the catalytic converters, to which he stated that he owned Curtis Cores – an auto recycling business that he had opened around January 2021 – and had obtained them legally.Despite the jagged ends, which the lieutenant later stated was a clear indicator they had been stolen, Curtis and an unnamed passenger were only arrested for drug possession and possession of an unpermitted firearm.",
"All that was necessary to possess used catalytic converters was a scrap metal license, which Curtis did not possess, however he said that his father had applied for said permit.",
"He would later close the business temporarily, saying to a neighboring business owner that he needed to get said license.",
"After he got his license, it was hung in the warehouse so it was easily visible to inspectors.Curtis later pleaded guilty or no contest in the Tulsa County District Court to charges relating to his drug possession and the unpermitted firearm, receiving a three-year deferred sentence.As stated prior, in the months preceding the arrests, police had been attempting to cut down on the rate of catalytic converter thefts.",
"They began arresting \"cutters\", low-level criminals responsible for stealing catalytic converters and providing them to either their employers or intermediaries.",
"Some of these cutters had informed the Tulsa Police Department about some of the intermediaries that they had been selling to.",
"Among these intermediaries was Steven Low Sr., a man who worked for an insurance agency while also dealing in catalytic converters.Two days before Curtis' arrest, a GPS device was placed on Low's vehicle by police.",
"This device showed his arrival at a warehouse on Highway 51 in Broken Arrow.",
"The site belonged to Curtis Cores, and police used this connection to investigate Curtis further.",
"It was later discovered that, while he was in jail, he had made a recorded phone call requesting his parents to drive to the warehouse and remove anything incriminating.After being released on bail, police obtained a search warrant for Curtis' seized phone and iPad.",
"On these devices, they discovered a Facebook messaging group including Curtis, a man called Navin Khanna and Adam Sharkey.The case was then given to Kansas Core, an officer relatively new to the Tulsa Riverside Street Crimes Unit.",
"By September 2021, Lieutenant Brad Staggs had taken over the unit.",
"Within the first week he asked Core what he knew about the case and where he believed it could go.",
"Core then laid out what had been uncovered about Curtis and what they knew about the interstate trafficking ring.",
"He also told Staggs about how the catalytic converters had been getting transported from across the US to a company by the name of DG Auto Parts in Freehold, New Jersey where the cores were extracted and then shipped overseas.By December, Core had obtained a warrant for a 24-hour surveillance camera to be placed on a pole outside Curtis Cores.",
"The surveillance would capture vehicles arriving daily, sometimes hourly, full of catalytic converters.",
"These catalytic converters would then be unloaded by Curtis and his employees, inspected and paid for in cash.",
"They would then be packed into cardboard boxes, wrapped in plastic and loaded onto pallets for transport.",
"The business was handling between 5,000–6,000 catalytic converters per week.",
"These catalytic converters would then be transported either directly to DG Auto Parts or to Adam, an intermediary in New York.Weeks after Core gained the warrant to surveil Curtis Cores, he gained a search warrant for Curtis's Facebook account.",
"Looking through his account, they – alongside a team from the Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) division in Tulsa – traced the development of the trafficking ring.",
"They discovered that three years before his arrest, he got a part time job at Green Country Auto Core.",
"The owner of the business, Dave Edwards, showed Curtis the \"ins and outs\" of the catalytic converter recycling industry.",
"Edwards said of Curtis \"he was good at his job, and the kid was a hustler.",
"\"Between May and August 2020, Curtis found DG Auto Parts and put the owner, Navin Khanna, in contact with Edwards.",
"Edwards said of Navin \"I didn't deal with the guy much.",
"Tyler dealt with him...I did talk to the guy – just kind of rubbed me the wrong way.\"",
"Court documents would later reveal that Green Country Auto Core had sold approximately $2,000,000 in catalytic converters to DG Auto Parts.",
"In late 2020, Curtis told Edwards that he would be starting his own business and that he would be bringing DG Auto Parts with him.",
"Edwards later said of this \"I felt I wasted a lot of time on him, showing him the business.",
"Would've been nice to have a little warning, couple of weeks at least.",
"In hindsight, it's probably the best thing that happened to me.",
"\"=== DG Auto Parts ===Navin and his brother, Tinu Khanna, were first-generation immigrants from India.",
"Their older brothers owned and operated a wrecking yard and, after working there for a few years, Navin and Tinu began their own business ventures.",
"In 2016 they began a rubber disposal business, in 2018 they began a recycling business and in 2019 they also started a company in the auto wrecking industry under the name DG Auto Wreckers.",
"According to an interview performed by Navin with ACE Finance, none of their prior endeavors succeeded until DG Auto Wreckers; this success was down to finding Dowa Metals & Mining America.DG Auto Wreckers traded in used car parts, to include catalytic converters.",
"Initially the business remained small, with sellers bringing in small loads from across New Jersey.",
"However, when the COVID-19 pandemic began, the prices of PRP metals rose drastically.",
"In December 2019, the price of rhodium stood at $6,000 per ounce and by March 2021, the price rose to $21,000 per ounce, with platinum and palladium seeing similar rises.Cutaway of a catalytic converterThe brothers incorporated the business as DG Auto Parts in February 2020, and moved to the Freehold, New Jersey site.",
"They decided to focus on catalytic converter recycling so they purchased four decanning machines; these machines are used to slice open the catalytic converters and crush the cores into dust.",
"The dust is then collected and sent to a refinery, such as the refinery owned by Dowa in Burlington, New Jersey.",
"That year, DG Auto Parts opened a branch in Virginia and partnered with a business in Wisconsin.",
"DG Auto Parts was also sourcing products from other partnered intermediaries across the US, including Curtis Cores.",
"The manager of a neighboring business said \"people would come with tractor trailers and drop them off.",
"Dumpsters full of cats.",
"They were working 24 hours.",
"\"By 2021, the business had a website and an app for both Android and iOS, which they used to provide sellers with daily pricing on thousands of catalytic converter codes.",
"Sellers could also use the app to send in photos of their catalytic converters so that they could be graded and priced ahead of time.",
"These codes identify the make, model and place of origin of catalytic converters, which in turn identify the worth of each due to the various state emission laws.",
"As an example, GD3 EA6 is the code used to denote a Toyota Prius manufactured between 2004–2009 which, due to its high concentration of palladium, can sell for $1,800 or more.As the profits grew, DG Auto Parts began making advance payments in the millions to their largest suppliers, including Curtis Cores, so that they too could provide their suppliers with the highest prices to maximize the supply of catalytic converters."
],
[
"Further investigation and dismantling of state theft rings",
"Core and other investigators started filing for more warrants, ranging from intercepting calls made to and from Curtis's phone to tracking the locations of his employee's phones and monitoring their Facebook accounts.",
"Another warrant was gained for the placement of a pole camera, this time outside the home of Curtis and his wife, where they lived on a large plot of land owned by his wife's parents.As of 2022, catalytic converters were coming to Curtis Cores from numerous states.",
"A regular delivery arrived from Houston, Texas, where the sellers specialized in the \"torpedo\" type catalytic converters – named as such for their distinctive shape – taken from Toyota Tacoma and Tundra trucks.=== Houston ===On March 31, 2022, in Houston, off-duty sheriff's deputy Darren Almendarez was grabbing groceries with his wife to stock up for his sister's birthday.",
"They parked their Toyota Tundra outside of a Joe V's Smart Shop in the north of the city.",
"Upon leaving the store, Almendarez noticed that a black Nissan Ultima had backed up to his vehicle.",
"Almendarez had been with the Harris County Sherriff's Office for 23 years, and in this time he had once been part of an auto theft unit; as such he recognized what appeared to be a catalytic converter theft.As he approached, two men clambered out from under his truck and into the Ultima.",
"His wife later recalled he told her to run away and call the police.",
"The driver raised a handgun with Almendarez responding by drawing his own.",
"In the shootout that followed, two of the three men inside the Ultima were injured and Almendarez was shot multiple times before the men fled.Almendarez's wife ran to where he had collapsed, as did an employee of the store who attempted to control the bleeding with her apron.",
"After being taken to Houston Northwest Hospital, Almendarez was later pronounced dead.Not long after, two of the suspects, Joshua Stewart and Fredarius Clark, arrived at the same hospital.",
"They had driven themselves there after the incident and were treated for the gunshot wounds that Almendarez had inflicted.",
"Following their treatment they were taken into custody.",
"The third suspect, Fredrick Tardy, was arrested the following day.",
"All three were later charged with capital murder.Staggs heard about the incident and that police in Houston were investigating where the catalytic converters stolen by the three men were being sent.",
"He also heard that they believed the supply chain might be running through Tulsa.",
"He would later say of this \"They were highly motivated, obviously, to go out and take these people down...So we took this detour in our investigation to provide them with anything we could.",
"\"A week after the death of Almendarez, the pole camera monitoring Curtis Cores recorded a black GMC truck with Texas license plates with a U-Haul trailer containing catalytic converters.",
"The truck was then traced back to Isaac Castillo, a Houston resident.",
"This information was relayed to Houston, with Castillo being stopped by police upon his return to Texas.",
"Upon searching the truck, police discovered a box containing $206,000 in cash.",
"Castillo denied any wrongdoing, claiming that the money was as a result of selling scrap in Oklahoma.",
"However, earlier that year in February 2022, he was stopped by police in a similar incident where he was driving a pickup carrying catalytic converters.",
"Also in his possession was an unlicensed firearm and $25,000 in cash.A federal search warrant application alleged that Castillo was a member of what Houston police dubbed the Ley Road gang.",
"Houston police and the Houston HSI alleged that the three men accused of killing Almendarez had been using the Ley Road gang and another gang as fences for the catalytic converters they stole.On July 28 that year, officers from Houston HSI, Harris County Sherriff's Office, Houston Police Department and the Texas Department of Public Safety arrested six individuals for their alleged roles in the theft ring.",
"They also executed search warrants at five residences and a storage facility as part of their investigation.",
"In the course of executing these search warrants, they seized over $484,000, 29 firearms, narcotics, a stolen Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat and 477 catalytic converters worth an estimated $11–12,000,000.At the time, Castillo was not among those detained.",
"The police obtained a warrant to locate his phone, which placed him at Curtis Cores making another delivery.",
"Shortly after leaving, Castillo was stopped by police.",
"Upon searching his vehicle, $80,000 was found hidden behind the vehicle's interior panels.Castillo would later tell investigators that Curtis kept $500,000 in his desk drawer and that he was aware that the catalytic converters he received and sold were stolen.",
"In an interview with one of the gang's leaders, police were told that Curtis instructed them as to what vehicles to steal from.=== Colorado ===Following a rise in catalytic converter thefts in Weld County, Colorado, an investigation by the Weld County Sherriff's Office (WCSO) began in 2021.This later led police to Elevation Auto Core in Brighton, Colorado.",
"In 2022, the WCSO was contacted by the Colorado Bureau of Investigation and HSI, which led to the investigation becoming a state and federal investigation due to the discovery that the Elevation Auto Core business was a part of the larger theft ring, including a business in Las Vegas, Nevada.On May 2, 2022, police tracked one of Curtis's employees to Elevation Auto Core and, upon learning that he would be traveling back to Tulsa, he was stopped at the airport.",
"A cash-sniffing dog alerted officers to his bag, which was discovered to contain $500,000 in cash.",
"The employee signed over the money to the police.According to arrest papers in the case, undercover officers and confidential informants wearing cameras found they could walk in and easily sell what was described as \"obviously stolen catalytic converters\".",
"Despite changes to Colorado law requiring identification and other personal information to be collected in the sale of catalytic converters, little to no questions were asked in three different sting operations.",
"The catalytic converters were then, similar to the Curtis Cores operation, packaged and placed onto pallets to be transported out of state – of which an article published by CBS News states most are destined for the \"east coast\" to be shipped out of the country – or decanned on-site.On December 13, 2022, six men were taken into custody in both Colorado and Nevada.",
"They were charged with crimes ranging from violations of the Colorado Organized Crime Control Act and Colorado tax laws; in addition to committing theft and money laundering.=== Minnesota ===From 2020 to 2022, four men from Minneapolis and others operated a theft ring where they acquired stolen catalytic converters and transported approximately 90% of their stock to \"high-volume buyers based in New Jersey, Oklahoma, Colorado, and New York.\"",
"They used similar methods to the rest of the ring, grading, pricing, sorting, concealing and then transporting the catalytic converters using rented U-Haul vehicles as well as their personal vehicles.",
"In total, they received approximately $21,000,000 in payments using wire transfers, cash, cheques or a combination of methods.In 2021, prosecutors say that the group took multiple trips to a buyer in New Jersey before flying back to Minnesota.",
"At least three of these trips netted them a profit of nearly $500,000.=== Connecticut, New York, New Jersey, Oklahoma and Texas ===On May 8, 2022, an officer from the Wyandotte Nation Tribal Police Department stopped a rented Penske truck.",
"A detection dog was used to search the vehicle, which indicated it had detected something.",
"Upon searching the truck, the police discovered three pallets of catalytic converters and approximately $1,300,000.The driver, Robert Sharkey, \"provided various mixed narratives to the purpose of his trip, or the source of the catalytic converters and money.\"",
"The name Sharkey was already known to police in Tulsa due to his son, Adam Sharkey, DG Auto Parts' associate in New York.",
"According to police, the money had originated from DG Auto Parts and approximately $290,000 was destined for Curtis Cores.Robert was allegedly driving to Amarillo, Texas, to deliver the rest of the money to another intermediary, Martynas Macerauskas.",
"Martynas was the owner of M&M Auto, a business in Clarendon, Texas who sold parts to DG Auto Parts.",
"He would later tell investigators about his dealings with DG Auto Parts, saying \"Khanna does not care where the catalytic converters come from, only that he wants the volume so he can keep up with sales to Dowa.",
"\"On May 10, Martynas' wife was stopped in Texas with approximately $1,200,000 in her vehicle; she told police that she had driven it from DG Auto Parts.",
"In a search of M&M Auto, police found 30 catalytic converters.",
"In total, the Macerauskas's received more than $6,000,000 from DG Auto Parts for catalytic converters.That same day, the pole camera surveilling Curtis Cores recorded Curtis's employees awaiting Robert's arrival.",
"At approximately 3 a.m., Curtis was informed that Robert had been stopped and that the money had been seized.",
"Curtis then called Adam to inform him.",
"Two days after Robert Sharkey was stopped, Curtis flew to Newark Liberty International Airport and drove to DG Auto Parts while being followed by investigators.",
"When he left, he was carrying approximately $1,000,000 in bags which he then drove back to Oklahoma.Curtis did become more careful upon returning due to the then-recent arrest of the Ley Road gang and concern that police would link them back to him, which was caught on a wiretap.",
"He altered how he would buy stolen goods, refused to travel with large sums of money and would routinely check with his wife to ensure the money stashed around their property was safe.",
"Despite this extra care, investigators used a confidential informant who went to Curtis Cores with 20 catalytic converters, telling Curtis that he had bought them from \"a sketchy motherfucker\" who'd \"just got them from some cars\" and stashed them in a field after running from police; Curtis still bought them.In August 2022, Downpipe Depot & Recycling LLC in East Hartford, Connecticut, a buyer for DG Auto Parts, was raided by police after it was discovered that they transported and sold stolen catalytic converters to recycling businesses in New York and New Jersey.",
"When federal investigators later obtained a wiretap for an employee of DG Auto Parts, they recorded Navin on August 5 telling him that it was too risky to travel with money and that the police were \"busting everybody\".Due to a drop in the price of PRP's, particularly palladium, DG Auto Parts started to suffer financially.",
"One buyer threatened to sue the company for stealing data from the pricing app.",
"There were accusations on their Facebook page that the brothers were offering large sums of money for large quantities of catalytic converters and then refusing to pay.In September 2022, DG Auto Parts announced that it had secured funding with the help of private investing firm the Barrett Edge.",
"Despite Barret Edge praising them for being \"consummate professionals\", for months investigators had been sending confidential informants into DG Auto Parts to sell catalytic converters, all the while emphasizing that they were stolen.Federal indictments later alleged that on September 1, a confidential informant claimed to have a cousin who worked in a Toyota warehouse that could steal catalytic converters and \"bricks\" (cores that had not been put into catalytic converters yet) from Toyota Priuses stored there, of which the brothers agreed to.",
"According to court documents, DG Auto Parts paid $259,000 for 402 bricks and 98 catalytic converters.Additionally, in a Facebook message sent by Navin, he said, \"every cat in Cali is stolen I can promise you that\".=== California ===In May 2, 2019, Vang Auto Core LLC was started by Tou Vang, who was joined soon after by his brother, Andrew Vang.",
"On May 31, Tou was arrested for the theft of a catalytic converter from a Prius.",
"Between May 2 and October 1 that year, Vang Auto Core was already in contact with DG Auto Parts, with their first transaction occurring on October 1.Over the next three months, withdrew approximately $460,000 in $10,000 increments.",
"This is likely due to an Internal Revenue Service law requiring banks to file reports on transactions larger than $10,000.In September 2020, a Prius owner in Davis, California discovered that their catalytic converter had been stolen.",
"Investigation into the theft uncovered footage recorded by another vehicle parked on the same street showed a car pulling up next to it in the middle of the night, much like how the thieves had stopped behind Almendarez's vehicle in Houston.",
"The vehicle and its owner were identified, and surveillance began.",
"The following month, police stopped the vehicle and, upon searching it, discovered an undisclosed number of catalytic converters in the vehicle.",
"Two men were arrested in connection with this, Dao Xiong and Shaneel Lal.",
"Prosecutors charged the two men with the theft of 64 catalytic converters across eight northern California counties.During surveillance, investigators observed the two men casing neighborhoods during the day, only to return by night to steal catalytic converters.",
"Investigators also tracked Xiong to the Vangs home on Meadowgate Drive, Sacramento.In August 2020, police obtained a search warrant for a phone \"associated with a known cutter\", with which they discovered the cutter had been discussing catalytic converters with a man called Choy Saeteurn, a mechanic based in Sacramento.",
"Police then obtained a search warrant for Saeteurn's Facebook account.On September 3, 2020, Tou and Saeteurn had a text conversation about Saeteurn returning to buying and selling catalytic converters, saying that he was doing so discretely.",
"Prosecutors later alleged that Tou was buying discretely due to his prior arrest in 2019.By September 2020 however, he was already under investigation for the interstate trafficking of catalytic converters.A week later on September 10, Navin communicated with Saeteurn about a need for more \"Prius\", referring to Toyota Prius' and their catalytic converters.",
"In this conversation, he referred to Tou directly.On 11 September, Navin communicated with Saeteurn about Tou shipping 300 catalytic converters to DG Auto Parts, bank records showed the company wiring $400,000 to Vang Auto Core.",
"In April 2021, shipping manifests showed that Vang Auto Core had shipped two crates, weighing a combined , to DG Auto Parts.",
"Over the next two weeks, DG Auto Parts wired Vang Auto Core a further $975,000.By May 2021, police were using a confidential informant to sell catalytic converters to the Vangs at their house.",
"From May to August 2021, the informant made five sales of between two or three catalytic converters at a time.",
"On one occasion, the informant told the Vangs that he had stolen one from a Prius that he'd previously targeted.",
"Andrew responded to this by saying \"for future reference, don't say they were stolen.",
"\"In August 2021, during a conversation with a confidential informant following the purchase of two catalytic converters, Andrew asked them to \"see if you can cover it catalytic converter better\" the next time they came to the house, as another seller had recently \"brought hella heat over here\" by arriving in a stolen vehicle.According to police, many of the cutters that sold to the Vangs had ties to the Tiny Rascal Gang (TRG).",
"The TRG was founded in 1981 in Long Beach, California by newly arriving Cambodian refugees seeking protection from neighboring gangs.",
"Due to this and the fact the Vangs operated the business out of their own home, the Vangs were known to keep at least five firearms in their house and more than 1,300 rounds of ammunition.In November 2021, one of the Vangs neighbors, Joe McElroy, returned home from work to find the street cordoned off by police, with yellow crime tape surrounding the Vangs house and a tarp covering a corpse on the driveway.",
"Upon asking around, he discovered that Andrew Vang had shot a burglar who had broken into their house.",
"Not long after, he witnessed a \"stream\" of police entering the house with dogs and sledgehammers.",
"McElroy later said of this \"Cops come over and fucked up the whole house...Just ransacked it.",
"Knocking the walls down.",
"They destroyed it.\"",
"The Vangs moved out within a few days, with the damage said to have taken approximately eight months to repair.Due to the nature of the Vangs operation, investigators speculated that the perpetrators knew about their business and targeted their home expecting to find money there.",
"Andrew was not charged for the shooting, as the shooting was deemed to have been self defense.",
"When the Vangs left their home, they looked to DG Auto Parts to help them.",
"In December 2021, the Khanna brothers paid approximately $1,200,000 for a house in northern Sacramento on their behalf.By the second quarter of 2022, investigators already suspected that DG Auto Parts was a major hub for the sale of stolen catalytic converters."
],
[
"Operation Heavy Metal and aftermath",
"By the third quarter of 2022, the investigation into the interstate catalytic converter theft ring was reaching its conclusion.",
"Now nicknamed Operation Heavy Metal, the investigation had grown to include over 70 local and federal agencies.",
"By chance, investigators in Operation Heavy Metal discovered the investigation into the Vang family; as such, the investigation was merged into Operation Heavy Metal.",
"It was later discovered that Vang Auto Core had sold over $38,000,000 of catalytic converters to DG Auto Parts.",
"The case had become so large that agents from multiple different agencies had to gather in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, to coordinate the final stages of the investigation.Catalytic converters seized during the raid on Curtis CoresOn the morning of November 2, the owner of a store adjacent to Curtis Cores, Jeremy Jones of JT Auto, was in his office grabbing a cup of coffee when he witnessed the police storming into Curtis Cores.",
"He later said of the day, \"I look out the window and something caught my eye – it was like a SWAT team.",
"There's a tank.",
"There's guys with assault rifles and military gear.\"",
"Curtis had left shortly before the raid, however returned not long after and was arrested.",
"On that day, six of his employees and partners were arrested alongside his wife.Catalytic converters seized during the raid on DG Auto PartsPolice used a helicopter and officers riding all-terrain vehicles to search for the money stashed on his wife's family's land where he and his wife lived, however none was found.",
"Staggs said of this \"he probably has money hidden somewhere that we'll never find\".",
"Curtis was accused of receiving approximately $13,100,000 from DG Auto Parts for the shipment of catalytic converters.Simultaneously across the US, police executed more than 32 search warrants on locations used by the various organizations involved in the ring, seizing \"homes, bank accounts, cash, and luxury vehicles\", among other assets, which were valued at \"tens of millions of dollars\".",
"In total, 21 arrests were made in five states.",
"Seven people associated with DG Auto Parts were among those who were arrested, six of whom had been involved in decanning and selling the metals to refineries.The Sharkeys gained approximately $45,000,000 from the sale of stolen catalytic converters to DG Auto Parts, and were arrested in New York.",
"Curtis received approximately $500,000 from Capital Cores, a company operated by Adam in Long Island, New York.=== Dowa Metals & Mining America and Nippon PGM Co. ===Dowa Metals & Mining America was the refiner that DG Auto Parts used to refine the PRP metals that they gained from decanning the catalytic converters.",
"They were identified early on in the investigation, and provided DG Auto Parts with the approximately $545,000,000 in profits that police uncovered during the investigation.",
"Prosecutors said that of the approximately $25,000,000 withdrawn from this sum by the Khannas, only $150,000 was recovered.",
"As such, they were deemed to be a flight risk if released on bail.Dowa began in 1884 as a mining operation in the town of Kosaka, Akita Prefecture, Japan.",
"The company specialized in mining kuroko ore, a rare black volcanic deposit found only in Japan and primarily in Akita Prefecture in the Hokuroku Basin.",
"The ores can contain as much as 20% of combined copper, lead and zinc, however they can also contain quantities of gold and silver.",
"Originally it was difficult to recover the precious and base metals from the ores efficiently due to the complex mineral composition, however Dowa invented specialised floating and smelting methods for this purpose.Dowa acquired more mines around Japan in the early 20th century, then in the 1940s they began exploring internationally.",
"By 1990 Kosaka Mine had closed and by 1994 Dowa's domestic operations in Japan were suspended due to \"due to economic changes and the depletion of ore\".",
"They currently operate three overseas mines, Tizapa and Los Gatos Mines in Mexico and Gibraltar Mine in Canada.",
"In 2015, Dowa Holdings established Dowa Metals & Mining America, beginning operations at the refinery in Burlington some time after.According to federal wiretaps, Navin told associates that the business had been doing poorly until, as stated prior, DG Auto Parts partnered with Dowa.",
"A subpoena into the brothers' bank records corroborated that, revealing that between March 2021 to April 2022 Dowa had transferred $224,000,000 into a single account used by DG Auto Parts.",
"A further $175,000,000 was discovered on another account.Dowa was willing to buy as much palladium as DG Auto Parts could supply them, and after Dowa evaluated all of the PRP dust that it received, the supplier would be paid and the dust would be shipped to Nippon PGM Co. Nippon PGM Co. was formed in 1991, shortly after Dowa's final mine in Japan closed down, by a joint venture between Dowa, Tanaka Precious Metals and Kosaka Smelting and Refining Co.Tanaka Precious Metals was formed a year after Dowa in 1885 as Ejimaya Tanaka Shoten, as a bullion trading business, melting down foreign currency from Yokohama's foreign quarter, refining and then selling the metals.",
"In 1923 Tanaka signed a deal with the Soviet Union – which at that time produced approximately 70% of platinum globally – to become Japan's sole agency for platinum and palladium.",
"Between 1969 and 1990 the company began producing precious metal products for use in various devices and items.",
"Today, they're one of the world's largest metal suppliers, providing critical materials to several Japanese industries such as vehicles and electronics.Kosaka Smelting and Refining Co. was incorporated in May 1989, and today produces approximately 20 different kinds of metals; something they claim is rare in the industry.",
"Additionally, they claim to be the only plant in Japan with the capability to produce both copper and lead at a single plant.Once Dowa received metal from DG Auto, its refinery would process the material into chunks which would be shipped to Akita, where Tanaka Precious Metals would prepare them to be sold.",
"Between 2018 and 2022, Tanaka Precious Metals' annual revenue rose by around 20%, to $288 million.",
"It is unclear whether Dowa performed any form of vetting on their suppliers.Despite bank records and surveillance proving Dowa to be the source of DG Auto Parts' money, the company's name was withheld during the indictments against Curtis and the Khannas, only being referred to as an unindicted co-conspirator.=== Aftermath ===Staggs stated that Operation Heavy Metal had drastically cut the rate of catalytic converter thefts, saying \"in the four months prior to that national takedown day, there were 250 reports of catalytic converter theft.",
"In the four months after, there were 38.\"",
"By 2023, reports of catalytic converter thefts had declined significantly.",
"In the first nine months of 2023, there were 2,675 catalytic converter thefts reported per month, down from over 5,000 in 2022.The government was seeking a forfeiture of approximately $545,000,000 in connection with the case, however it is unclear whether they received this amount during the search and seizure efforts.On June 7, 2023, a bill named the \"Deputy Darren Almendarez Act\" was signed into law by Governor Greg Abbott.",
"The law intended to increase penalties for the theft and unlawful possession of catalytic converters."

],
[
"Background",
"Prior to the invasion, Bolesław was currently involved in wars against the Pomeranians.",
"The Pomeranians, frightened by Boleslaw, began to besiege Santok, but none of the magnates dared to move to relief, as they were all terribly afraid.",
"Then Boleslaw, against his father's wishes and the objections of many, set out to help the besieged city and with a handful of knights won a great victory.",
"The triumph was great, so Boleslaw's father knighted him, which can be dated to August 15, 1100 or 1101.It also happened that at the meeting during the knighting ceremony someone said words that might suggest the Cuman invasion:"

"As dawn broke, the unsuspecting Polish villages were engulfed in flames, their inhabitants falling victim to the merciless onslaught.",
"The Cumans, ransacked homes and farms, leaving behind a trail of devastation in their wake.Despite their fierceness, the Cumans soon encountered unexpected resistance.",
"The small group of brave warriors who stood against the wave of invaders, led by Boleslaw III Wrymouth, fought with courage, determined to defend their homeland.",
"In a decisive battle that followed, the Cumans suffered a crushing defeat, their forces scattered and broken before Bolesław's army."
],
[
"Aftermath",
"From that day on, the Cumans had to reckon with the powerful force of Bolesław's rule.",
"Although they still posed a threat to the kingdom, they were never again able to strike with the same ferocity as before.",

],
[
"Taxonomy",
"The species was identified for the first time in New Zealand, specifically on Campbell Island, atop rock outcrops at the summit of Mount Azimuth, recorded at a height of on January 3, 1970, by Henry Imshaug.",
"Alan Fryday and Brian Coppins formally described it as a new species in 2014.",
"''Bryobilimbia austrosaxicola'' is placed within the genus ''Bryobilimbia'' due to its similarities with ''B.",
"australis'' and the presence of (rod-shaped) conidia, a characteristic shared across the genus.",
"Its differentiation from ''B.",
"australis'' and other genus members is primarily through its saxicolous habit and consistently 1-septate ascospores.",
"The suggestion to classify this taxon within the ''Lecidea hypnorum'' group came from Brian Coppins, hence his inclusion as an author of the species."
],
[
"Description",
"The lichen spreads over surfaces up to 5 cm across, forming a patchwork of pale grey, thin, angular that are flat to slightly convex, each measuring between 0.2 and 0.3 mm.",
"The core of the lichen, or medulla, does not produce a reaction with iodine.",
"It has a primary of nature, with cells measuring 5–9 μm in diameter, and a secondary photobiont that consists of small clumps of cyanobacteria, including both ''Stigonema'', characterised by short, branched, yellow-brown filaments, and ''Gloeocapsa'', noticeable for its groups of 2–4 cells within a reddish sheath.Apothecia (fruiting bodies) are common, black, and range from flat to convex, with a diameter of 1.0–1.5 mm.",
"They are generally circular but can become angular when confluent.",
"The hymenium, a tissue layer containing the spore-producing asci, is infused with a red-brown pigment, and paraphyses (filamentous structures among the asci) are sparse and .",
"The asci themselves are cylindrical to , housing hyaline (clear), 1-septate ascospores measuring 10–12 by 3.5–4.0 μm.Chemical analyses have not detected any secondary substances through thin-layer chromatography (TLC), and all standard chemical spot test reactions are negative."

"The '''Raiders Organization''' (Turkish: Akıncılar Derneği) is an Islamist sociopolitical group active in Turkey."
],
[
"History",
"It was founded in Ankara on December 12, 1975, by a group of university students under the leadership of Tevfik Rıza Çavuşoğlu, with the goal of turning Turkey into an Islamic state.",
"They were significantly influenced by the Iranian Revolution.",
"The Raiders rapidly grew to over 1,200 branches across Turkey.",
"It was a part of MSP and then became an independent organization after MSP's closure.",
"Later, the Ankara Martial Law Command closed the Raiders Organisation, although it continued to defy all closures by operating underground and through rebranded organizations.",
"The Raiders had both Turkish and Kurdish members, although it became Turkish majority after many of its Kurds switched their allegiance to Kurdish Hezbollah after it was founded, and began fighting in the insurgency.",
"Unlike the Raiders, the Kurdish Hezbollah wanted to achieve its goals with violence, and made takfir, and were much stricter.",
"The Raiders have many affiliated organisations, such as the Raider Scholar Union (Akıncı Liseliler Birliği), a faction for employees (AK-Mem), Raider Sportsmen Organization (Akıncı Sporcular Derneği) and Raider Workers (AK-İş).",
"Since 2011, the Raiders are led by Fahri Çinar.",
"The Raiders' ideology is Millî Görüş, Pan-Islamism, Anti-communism, Anti-fascism, and Anti-Salafism.",
"The Raiders oppose Turkish nationalism and advocate for mild patriotism, to an extent that it does not cause hatred between people.",

"The Heart of Rock and Roll (musical)"
],
[
"Introduction",
" '''''The Heart of Rock and Roll''''' is a jukebox musical set to debut at the James Earl Jones Theatre on Broadway in 2024.It features the hits of the band Huey Lewis and the News, and is named after their 1983 song of the same name.The show is a musical comedy revolving around a couple balancing their romance amidst their rock and roll world and corporate world dreams.",
"It is not a biographical piece about the band."
],
[
"Origin",
"Going back to at least 2010, producer and writer Tyler Mitchell, whose father-in-law is a good friend of Huey Lewis, first proposed the idea of a musical featuring the band's songs to Lewis.",
"Lewis said he had thought of the idea before, but did not know how the band's songs could be linked together into a story, \"because they have nothing to do with each other.\"",
"Mitchell then connected with Jonathan Abrams to write a draft original story, and they continued to hone the story over time."
],
[
"Production history",
"=== San Diego (2018) ===Huey Lewis first publicly announced the future show in a video with Jimmy Kimmel in February 2018, with Kimmel claiming he was quitting his show to star as Huey in the show, and then being crushed to learn Lewis was not a character in the show.",
"At that time, a venue and debut date was not yet set.",
"It debuted at the Old Globe Theatre in San Diego in September 2018, where it opened previews on September 6, opened on September 14, and ran through October 21, 2018.Matt Doyle and Katie Rose Clarke starred in that production.",
"Doyle actually grew up down the street from Lewis in Ross, California, and already knew the band's music well when he auditioned.",
"The debut was only a few months after Lewis announced he had Ménière's disease and could no longer perform, and he was glad to be to focus on the show to stay involved with music.=== Broadway (2024) ===In November 2023, it was annoucned that the show will transfer to Broadway in the Spring of 2024.The show is expected to begin previews on March 29, 2024 with an opening night scheduled for April 22 at the James Earl Jones Theatre.",
"The Broadway cast was announced in January 2024.John Dossett, F. Micheal Haynie, Orville Mendoza, and Billy Harrigan Tighe were cast for the same roles they played in the San Diego production.The show will directed by Gordon Greenberg, choreographed by Lorin Latarro, and with a book by Jonathan A.

"McFarlane v Tayside Health Board"
],
[
"Introduction",
"'''''McFarlane v Tayside Health Board''''' 2000 2 AC 59 is a leading House of Lords decision concerning wrongful birth in the English law of negligence, though the case was Scottish.",
"The specific ratio decidendi of the decision is debated, but the judgments provide guidance and authoritative discussion used by later cases."
],
[
"Facts",
"The pursuers decided that they did not want to have any more children.",
"The husband had a vasectomy.",
"The surgeon was employed by Tayside Health Board, the defendant.",
"After the surgery, the surgeon told the husband that contraceptives were no longer necessary.",
"The wife became pregnant and gave birth to a healthy child."
],
[
"Claim",
"The pursuers alleged loss caused as a result of the negligence of the health board.",
"The couple claimed on two bases: first, the physical discomfort suffered by the wife from the pregnancy, confinement, and delivery; second, the financial costs for the caring of and bringing up of a child.The Outer House of the Court of Session dismissed the action.",
"They held that a normal pregnancy could not constitute personal injury damages.",
"The benefits of the child were held to have outweighed any of the cost associated.",
"The Inner House of the Court of Session reversed the decision, saying that the wife was entitled to damages for the effects of pregnancy, and the benefits associated with parenthood were not required to be balanced against the loss."
],
[
"House of Lords Decision",
"Lord Slynn held that the doctor had a duty of care in regards to the pregnancy, but not towards the costs of rearing the child:\"The doctor undertakes a duty of care in regard to the prevention of pregnancy: it does not follow that the duty includes also avoiding the costs of rearing the child if born and accepted into the family.",
"Whilst I have no doubts that there should be compensation for the physical effects of the pregnancy and birth...",
"I consider that it is not fair, just or reasonable to impose on the doctor or his employer liability for the consequential responsibilities, imposed on or accepted by the parents to bring up the child.",
"\"Lord Hope held that the claim was entirely for economic loss, which is generally not recoverable.",
"However, the benefits of the raising of the child were to be balanced with the costs of raising the child.",
"Since the benefits are incalculable, but the costs are, the costs of raising the child are not recoverable as damages.",
"\"It would not be fair, just or reasonable, in any assessment of the loss caused by the birth of the child, to leave these benefits out of account...",
"The costs can be calculated but the benefits, which in fairness must be set against them, cannot.",
"The logical conclusion, as a matter of law, is that the costs to the pursuers of meeting their obligations to the child during her childhood are not recoverable as damages.",
"\"Lord Steyn and Lord Millett both advanced policy arguments.",
"Lord Millett argued that a society must consider the balance of cost and blessing as beneficial.",
"Lord Steyn advances a distributive justice argument, that the court needed to consider whether the spreading of the burden across society was just, which for wrongful conception, it was not."

"Mexia Supermarket"
],
[
"Introduction",
"'''Mexia Supermarket''' was a grocery store in Fort Worth, Texas, that was active in the late 1990s.",
"The store was abandoned between July–August 1999, with the store owners filing for Chapter 7 bankruptcy on either September 28 or 29 that year.The power to the building was disabled and the food inside was left to rot, leading to a hazardous and costly clean-up operation."
],
[
"Background",
"Mexia Supermarket was established by Advance Investment Corp. after gaining a 15–year $975,000 loan from Comercia Bank-Texas.",
"The site chosen for the store was 3900 Hemphill St., a 36,000 square feet building which had previously been operated as a Danals Food Store, a company based in Dallas, Texas.The store opened sometime between 1997 and October 5, 1998, as the latter date was its first taxable date for sales tax.",
"Due to a lack of profitability and a debt of approximately $1.14 million owed to several creditors, the store was closed and the owners began defaulting on loan repayments as early as June, 1999.Sources conflict on the date of the closure.",
"A newspaper published by the Abilene Reporter-News on 14 November 1999 stated that the store had closed in July of that year, while a newspaper published by the Fort Worth Star-Telegram on the previous day stated that the store closed in late August of that year.",
"Neighbors had called the city as early as September 15, 1999 to inform them that the store had closed, with the health department canceling its health permit and removing it from its list of active food establishments.Advance Investment Corp. filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy on either September 28 or 29 that year, with Steven Strange representing the company as their attorney.",
"Comercia Bank-Texas then became the building's lien holder.",
"Strange was quoted by the Fort Worth Star-Telegram as saying that a series of miscommunications led to the conditions of the store becoming a biological hazard."
],
[
"Abandonment",
"Strange stated that he had called the bank's attorneys to inform them of the bankruptcy, that the store had shut down, and that the keys had been handed over.",
"He was quoted by the Fort Worth Star-Telegram as saying that, normally, the bank or trustee would then normally take steps to dispose of the property within the building.",
"In this case, however, they didn't.",
"He said: \"I can't really tell you what happened, apparently the electric company turned the electricity off October 18 and obviously, no one had done anything about it then.",
"\"Other sources dispute when the electricity was disabled; then director of the Fort Worth Environmental Management Department, Brian Boerner, is quoted by the Fort Worth Star-Telegram in a newspaper published on 13 November as saying \"About 60 to 90 days ago, the guy pulled the electric breaker, locked the doors, and walked away.",
"\"Due to the series of miscommunications, all of the products that remained in the store at the time of its closure began to rot.",
"The amount of rotting food within the store then attracted multiple different species of insects, such as maggots, flies, and cockroaches, and rodents such as rats.",
"Had the situation been handled as Strange described, the food could have gone to food banks around the city such as the Metroplex Food Bank, which at the time was \"virtually begging for donations\", with the director fearing the organisation wouldn't be able to serve all the \"needy people seeking help\".By 20 October, nearby residents began complaining to the city of a \"noxious odor\".",
"A nearby resident stated to The Dallas Morning News that they \"got a headache from just walking across the street near it.\"",
"A housekeeper at the nearby Texas Christian University told the Fort Worth Star-Telegram that \"It is strong, especially when the wind is blowing.",
"I told my husband several times that something smelled awful - something smelled like dead animals.",
"Then one day I walked over there and there were flies all over it.",
"It was gross.",
"\"On October 27, the city discovered that that property was in bankruptcy and had been turned over to a bankruptcy trustee.",
"Comercia Bank-Texas told the city they had hired a contractor to assess the store and begin cleaning by November 2.When the contractor, A Plus Budget Movers, arrived at the store, it became clear that the company was not qualified to deal with the situation.",
"On November 4, the bank told the city that it was not the legal owner of the property and was not responsible for the clean-up.",
"More than a week later, the Fort Worth Department of Health declared the store a health hazard and the city began making preparations to clean it."
],
[
"Clean-up",
"The Department of Health then teamed up with the Environmental Management and Code Compliance departments to clean the store.",
"They also hired contractors from Garner Environmental to assist with the clean-up.Speaking to the Fort Worth Star-Telegram, Boerner said: \"We've got flies and rats and other things living in it.",
"It's not so much the animals but the potential diseases that they carry.\"",
"He would later say: \"I've been in this business for 14 years, this is the first time I've ever heard of this.",
"You think of what has been in there for 90 days - produce, dairy, meats.",
"It's kind of hard to comprehend.",
"\"Over the weekend of 13–14 November, the building was fumigated.",
"The clean-up was scheduled to begin on November 15, however, it was postponed until the following day to collect federally mandated air samples from within the building to be analyzed to ensure the safety of the workers.",
"This precaution was taken due to the volume of chemicals used during the fumigation to exterminate flies, maggots, rats, and cockroaches and to eradicate or reduce any diseases caused by the rotting food.The diseases that grew in the store included ''Escherichia coli'', which city spokesman Pat Svacina said was \"plentiful, active and growing\" when workers first entered the building on November 3.That day, an environmental management specialist also detected \"dangerous gases and a low level of oxygen inside the store\".As an additional safety measure, workers were to use full HAZMAT suits with air filtration systems and be decontaminated every time they exited the building.The workers used front loaders and shovels to scoop up the sludge and rotten food that was in the store, which they would then move to large, sealed garbage dumpsters.",
"When cleaning the store, workers were relieved to find that most of the perishables had been packaged in either plastic wrap or containers, making the clean-up easier than initially expected.Another concern was that when the owner left, they had simply left beef sides and quarters hanging in the freezer, however on November 16 it was discovered that that wasn't the case.",
"This allowed workers to simply scoop up packaged beef, sausages, chicken, pork, and other meats with their shovels, and place them into hazardous waste bags which would then be tossed into the scoop of a front loader.",
"The front loader would deposit the bags and other waste into the dumpsters, which would then be taken to a local landfill.By November 23, all food products were removed from the building, with the end of the clean-up operation scheduled for November 26.Despite this, the sanitization of the building wasn't completed until November 30.The initial cost of the clean-up was estimated at $10,000, however the cost rapidly increased.",
"Svacina said to the Fort Worth Star-Telegram on November 23 that \"Last week, they were saying the costs were accruing at between $5,000 to $8,000 a day.",
"It will be a substantial amount of money, much more than $10,000.It is unknown who paid the bill for the clean-up, as the final sourced reference of the cost stated that \"The city maintains that someone will pay for the cleanup, which is estimated to be in the tens of thousands of dollars, or the city will place a lien on the property.\""
],
[
"Aftermath",
"Ten \"vendors\" removed their salvageable property such as soft drink machines and cash registers from the store sometime around November 23.Due to the conditions within the store however, none of the food was salvageable - not even the canned goods.",
"Svacina said of this: \"Those canned goods were covered with bacteria and stuff.",
"Even if we went in there, got through the cleaning process, there is no way they could sanitize it and guarantee someone couldn't get sick.",
"\"On the evening of December 9, a meeting was held between city staff members and residents concerning Mexia Supermarket.",
"While the sanitization of the building was completed on November 30, officials said during the week of December 9 that \"bad odors persist\".On 26 January 2010, an episode featuring the store appeared on Life After People, a television series where scientists, mechanical engineers, and other experts speculate about what would happen if humans suddenly disappeared.",
"The episode, titled \"The Last Supper\", was based on what would happen to humanity's food supplies.By 2022, the store has been converted into a Dollar General and an auto parts shop."

"Ohuan"
],
[
"Introduction",
"'''Ohuan''' (also spelled '''Ouan'''), originally known as Prince '''Odogbo''', was the nineteenth Oba of Benin who ruled from circa 1606 AD to 1641 AD.",
"He was the only son of Ehengbuda, and he succeeded his father after his death.",
"He is known for his unusual birth story, his rebellion against his Iyase Ogina, and his expansion of the Benin Kingdom through warfare.",
"He died without an heir, leading to a succession crisis and a decline of the kingdom."
],
[
"Early life and birth story",
"Odogbo was born as the only son of Ehengbuda, the eighteenth Oba of Benin, who reigned from 1578 AD to 1606 AD.",
"According to some oral traditions, he was born as a girl and only later became a man through medicine.",
"According to other sources, he was very handsome and girlish in appearance, so that people thought he was a girl.",
"In both versions, Odogbo had to publicly present himself naked after his transformation or after his father heard of the rumours, in order to prove his manhood.",
"Him and his naked attendants, who had their hair well cut and dressed, walked from Uselu to Benin City, and they were termed ''Ifieto'' (Hair curlers), which term exists to this day.",
"On big ceremonial occasions, the ''Ifieto'' can still be seen dancing and singing in front of the royal procession."
],
[
"Reign and achievements",
"Odogbo was placed on the throne of Benin with the title Ohuan, after his father's death in 1606 AD.",
"He ruled the people with fairness and competence, and founded many towns and villages.",
"He had the loyalty and esteem of his subjects throughout his long reign of thirty-three years.However, his reign was not without challenges.",
"In the early years of his reign, the Iyase, named Ogina, rebelled against him.",
"The Iyase was the Commander-in-Chief of the army, and he had shown himself very unfriendly to the late Oba and had even committed adultery with one of his wives.",
"Ohuan retired to a village called Evbohuan for several months until he was powerful enough to attack and defeat Ogina, who was then banished to Okogo where later he died and was deified.",
"After the rebellion of Ogina, no other Iyase was installed by any Oba in the seventeenth century, as a political strategy to avoid any opposition from the military chief.Ohuan was also a skilled warrior and expanded the Benin Kingdom through conquest.",
"He increased contact with the Portuguese Empire, and traded with them in ivory, pepper, and slaves.",
"He also patronised the arts and culture of Benin, and some of the cast brass plaques that adorned the royal palace were made during his reign."
],
[
"Death and succession",
"Ohuan died in 1641 AD, without an heir.",
"He was later succeeded by Ohenzae.",
"His death created a difficult problem for the Edo people, as there was no brother or son to succeed him and keep the throne in the royal family.",
"As all branches of the royal family could equally claim a right to Ohuan's throne, corruption and internal disorder led to a decline of the kingdom.",
"The throne was rotated among six different candidates for six reigns, until civil war erupted in the last decade of the century."

"Hinckelmann edition"
],
[
"Introduction",
"The '''Hinckelmann edition''' is an Arabic edition of the Quran produced by the German Protestant theologian and Islamologist Abraham Hinckelmann in Hamburg, 1694.This was the first time the Quran was printed in its entirety in Europe, and the original copy is still located in the Württembergische Landesbibliothek library in Stuttgart, Germany.Hinckelmann was able to produce this edition due to his ownership of at least six Quran manuscripts, as well as a total of over two-hundred oriental books and manuscripts, including over seventy in Arabic and over fifty in Persian.",
"Hinckelmann's edition was originally released under the Latin title ''Al-Coranus s. lex Islamitica Muhammedis, filii Abdallae pseudoprophetae''.",
"Hinckelmann prefaced the Quranic text with a polemical critique of Islam, and the edition ends with an extensive errata list to help indicate that his edition was far from flawless.",
"Aside from some printing errors, the verse numbering scheme of the Hinckelmann edition does not correspond to that of other Quran editions, and Hinckelmann did not follow a single variant reading.",
"Hinckelmann made the decision to only print the Arabic text without a translation into any European language, for several reasons, including that he believed in the value of Arabic literature, he thought that Christians should be familiar with the Islamic scripture in its original language, he believed that much of the Quran could be understood simply, and that by contrast the production of a translation would involve a disproportionate philological effort to produce.",
"However, another likely issue limiting Hinckelmann in producing a translation was that he owned a copy of just one tafsir, the Tafsir al-Jalalayn.",
"Nevertheless, four years later, the Italian priest Ludovico Maracci would publish the Marracci edition of the Quran in Padua in 1698, this time including a translation and a commentary.",
"The production of these two editions inspired newfound European interest in the Quran and its history of translation.The Hinckelmann edition gave Western researchers access to a printed Quran text for the first time, and was used until it was superseded by the Flügel edition."

"Carnival (Kanye West and Ty Dolla Sign song)"
],
[
"Introduction",
"\"'''Carnival'''\" is a song by the American superduo ¥$, which is composed of rapper Kanye West and singer Ty Dolla Sign.",
"The song includes uncredited guest vocals from rappers Playboi Carti and Rich the Kid.",
"It was released through a single pack on streaming services on February 15 as the third single from the superduo's collaborative album ''Vultures 1'' (2024).",
"The pack also includes \"Hooligan Version\", where only the choir is present, and an \"a capella\" version.",
"The digital single cover consists of a still shot from a promo short clip for the album, made by Jon Rafman.Produced by West, TheLabCook, Ojivolta, and Digital Nas, the track was previewed during listening events in Chicago and New York shortly prior to its official release.",
"The song was entrenched in a controversy due to Ozzy Osbourne refusing to clear its sample of a live performance version of \"Iron Man\" by Black Sabbath.",
"The sample would be replaced with one of \"Hell of a Life\" by West, which itself contained a legally cleared interpolation of \"Iron Man\".",
"Following its release, \"Carnival\" attracted scrutiny for West's mentioning of Taylor Swift, as well as comparing himself to controversial public figures such as R. Kelly, Bill Cosby, Puff Daddy and others.",
"It was nonetheless commended as one of the best songs from ''Vultures 1'', with praise for its production and the performances of its collaborators."
],
[
"Background and release",
"American trap rappers Playboi Carti and Rich the Kid have uncredited guest appearances on the song.",
"Leaked versions of \"Carnival\" circulated online prior to its official release.",
"The song was previewed at a ''Vultures'' listening party held at the United Center in Chicago on February 8.This version of \"Carnival\" used a sample of a 1983 live performance of \"Iron Man\" by Black Sabbath.",
"The band's lead singer Ozzy Osbourne stated that he did not approve of this sample, writing on social media that West \"was refused permission because he is an antisemite and has caused untold heartache to many\".",
"Osbourne's wife and manager, Sharon, told ''TMZ'' that they were considering legal action against West; the Osbournes also sent West a cease and desist.Another listening party event was held on February 10 at the UBS Arena on Long Island.",
"\"Carnival\" played as the event started, with this version seeing a sample of West's own \"Hell of a Life\" (from his 2010 album ''My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy'') play in place of the \"Iron Man\" sample.",
"This effectively maintained the presence of \"Iron Man\", as \"Hell of a Life\" interpolates the song."
],
[
"Composition and lyrics",
"Kanye West recruited Italian football club Inter Milan's ultras (''pictured'') to provide the backing vocals on \"Carnival\".The song opens with a chant that is \"punctuated by 'ooohhh' crowd vocals\" and features \"clap-inducing percussion throughout\".",
"The chant was performed by Italian football club Inter Milan's ultras named \"Curva Nord Milano\".",
"Sonically, the song gives the impression of \"dark energy\" according to ''Vibe'' magazine; when it was made available for streaming, \"a dirge-like lick that evoked Black Sabbath without using Osbourne's recording was in the \"Iron Man\" sample's place\".",
"Indeed, the album version of the track has the \"Hell of a Life\" sample, maintaining the presence of an \"Iron Man\" interpolation.",
"''Billboard''s Michael Saponara wrote that the substitute sample helps \"bring the grunginess\" to \"Carnival\".In its lyrics, the song makes several references to other public figures and fellow musicians.",
"West raps in the song \"This that ''Game of Thrones'', Yeezy, not the clones / Elon, where my rocketship?",
"It's time to go home / They served us the porn since the day we was born / Anybody pissed off, gotta make 'em drink the urine / Now I'm Ye-Kelly, bitch, now, I'm Bill Cosby, bitch / Now, I'm Puff Daddy rich, that's '#MeToo me' rich\".",
"West additionally raps \"I'm the new Jesus, bitch, I turn water to Cris' / This for what they did to Chris, they can't do shit with this\".Various media outlets made particular note of the song's reference to Taylor Swift, who West has had a longstanding feud with.",
"West raps \"I made six Taylor Swift, since I had the Rollie on the wrist\"."
],
[
"Reception",
"Carnival received generally positive reception from critics.",
"Much of the song's critical reception, as well as audience reaction to it, was centered on its lyricism.",
"Media writers noted that general listeners were critical of West's reference to Swift, with some fans cited as calling these lyrics \"objectifying\".",
"Joey Ech of ''XXL'' wrote that West's lyrics in which he \"aligned himself with\" the likes of R. Kelly and Bill Cosby was included in \"perhaps one of his most eyebrow-raising verses to date\".Praising the production and Ye's and Ty Dolla Sign's lyrics as some of their best on the album, Michael Saponara of ''Billboard'' ranked \"Carnival\" as the best song on ''Vultures 1'', opining that it is \"the perfect example of why people put up with all of the controversies, album delays, and madness that come with being a Ye fan because nobody in rap creates generational moments like this\".",
"Saponara also wrote positively of Rich the Kid and Playboi Carti's appearances on the song, stating that Ye brought out the best of his collaborators.Writing on ''Vultures'', Eric Skelton of ''Complex'' wrote that \"more than anything, it feels like West wants a hit.",
"More specifically, he's grasping for the kind of expansive record that could be chanted by tens of thousands of people in a soccer stadium\", and pointed to \"Carnival\" as the \"most obvious example\" of this goal."

"Although published twice, it's the first edition from 1787 for which he is still remembered today.=== First edition ===In the years 1783, 1784 and 1785, Thiéry's publisher, Libraire Hardouin à Paris, published his ''Almanach du Voyageur à Paris.''",
"With the edition of 1785, the editor announced that a new and more comprehensive guide in two volumes will follow.",

"The publication was dedicated to Pierre-Charles Laurent de Villedeuil.In 1788, a new guide was published, similar in form to the ''Almanach du Voyageur à Paris,'' but with a classification of the subjects in alphabetical order.",

"It was divided into two parts and contained a small map of the City of Paris.",
"In 1789, the publication was reissued with almost identical content.",

"The two editions were almost identical, including the printing errors.",
"Only the foreword pages were recomposed and the font for these pages was replaced with looser and less careful typography.",
"In addition, the newly added pages were printed on lower quality paper.=== Research on site: The private world of the ''hôtels particuliers'' ===Baron de Besenval dans son salon de compagnie'' at the Hôtel de Besenval, by Henri-Pierre Danloux (1791).",

"He describes his tour of the Hôtel de Besenval in all details in his ''Guide des amateurs et des étrangers voyageurs à Paris, ou Description raisonnée de cette Ville, de sa Banlieue, et de tout ce qu'elles contiennent de remarquable,'' published in 1787.Thiéry's report reads like an inventory.",
"He meticulously describes where which pictures are hanging or furniture stands, as well as who made them or what their provenance is.=== A reference work ===Thanks to its precise descriptions, Thiéry's guide is still a reference work for museums, art dealers and auction houses today.==== Rediscovered pieces from the collection of the Baron de Besenval ====A few years ago, some valuable pieces from the Baron de Besenval's former collection were auctioned.",
"Thanks to Thiéry's guide, and the Baron de Besenval's 1795 collection sale catalogue by the auctioneer Alexandre Joseph Paillet (1743–1814), these pieces could be identified as pieces that previously belonged to the collection of Pierre Victor de Besenval.",
"One of the pieces was the former writing desk of the Baron de Besenval, which was sold at Christie's in London on 26 May 2021, as lot 30, for EUR462,500.Thiéry describes this writing desk in detail in his 1787 guide.",
"He even mentions that it was placed in the baron's bedroom.",
"However, the highlight in this context was sold two months later, on 8 July 2021, by the same auction house: The ''Baron de Besenval Garniture,'' a six-piece set made of Chinese celadon porcelain mounted with French gilt-bronze.",
"Part of it can be seen on the mantelpiece in the iconic portrait of the Baron de Besenval, ''Le Baron de Besenval dans son salon de compagnie,'' painted by Henri-Pierre Danloux in 1791.The celadon porcelain garniture was sold in three lots (lots 4, 5 and 6) for a total of GBP1,620,000.Years earlier, it was this iconic portrait of the Baron de Besenval itself that was sold by Sotheby’s in New York on 27 May 2004, as lot 35, for US$2,472,000.It shows the baron in his picture cabinet at the Hôtel de Besenval to which Thiéry had privileged access and the contents of which he describes meticulously in his 1787 publication.",
"According to Thiéry, the baron's cabinet was primarily renowned for the remarkable collection of contemporary and earlier pictures of the Flemish, Italian and French schools.",
"Thiéry mentions, amongst others, a painting by Jean-Honoré Fragonard, which was almost certainly the original version of ''La Gimblette,'' which the baron owned.",
"On 10 August 1795, this painting was sold by the auctioneer Alexandre Joseph Paillet (1743–1814) in Paris as lot 77 as part of the auction of the Baron de Besenval's collection.",
"Today, the painting is considered lost.",
"However, there is an engraving based on this painting, executed by Charles Bertony in 1783 and dedicated to the Baron de Besenval.Thiéry also reports a beautiful commode in the baron's bedroom, the front of which is decorated with inlaid stone reliefs of flowers and fruits (pietra dura).",
"This commode has been proven to be identical to the ''commode à vantaux'' which is on display in the Green Drawing Room at Buckingham Palace."

"Balconcillo mutiny"
],
[
"Introduction",
"The '''Balconcillo mutiny''' () was the first ''coup d'état'' in the history of Peru, which took place on 27 February 1823, at the Balconcillo hacienda of Lima, in response to the failed military campaign against the Royalist forces supporting the Spanish monarchy in the south."
],
[
"Coup",
"The defeat of the Patriot forces in the First Intermedios campaign led to increased tensions between the Peruvian Army and the Constituent Congress.",
"It was feared that the Royalists could reach Lima, which was used by army chiefs to criticise the ineffectiveness of Congress.On 26 February 1823, heads of the Army of the Centre, led by Andrés de Santa Cruz, headquartered at the Balconcillo hacienda, signed a demand to dissolve the short-lived and unstable Congress and its Governing Junta.",
"A day later, after Congress stated that they would postpone the discussion that the army demanded, the troops moved from the Balconcillo hacienda to Lima.",
"Upon the arrival of the troops, some of the civilians who had heard about the instability of Congress took to the streets in support of the army.",
"Given the coercion to which Congress was subjected, they were forced to accept the army's demands.José de la Riva Agüero was elected head of state of the country on 28 February, being the first to govern with the title of President.",
"On 4 March, he was also granted the controversial title of Grand Marshal of the Armies of the Republic, despite the fact that he had never fought a single battle.Riva Agüero and the Congress later clashed, with the latter declaring him a traitor and the former dissolving the entity, thus beginning the so-called First Militarism, a period of anarchy which concluded with Simón Bolívar governing Peru in 1824."

"Introduction",
"'''Ark Compiler''', also known as '''ArkCompiler''', is a unified compilation and runtime platform that supports joint compilation and running across programming languages and chip platforms, also operating systems of open-source OpenHarmony, alongside proprietary HarmonyOS with single core system HarmonyOS NEXT included on native APP in Event-driven programming in a unified development environment and formerly built for Android-based EMUI for Huawei smartphones and tablets with HMS-enabled apk apps on AppGallery that improves app performance.",
"It supports a variety of dynamic and static programming languages such as JS, TS, and ArkTS.",
"It is the compilation and runtime base that enables OpenHarmony alongside HarmonyOS NEXT to run on multiple device forms such as smart devices, mobile phones, PCs, tablets, TVs, automobiles, and wearables.",
"ArkCompiler consists of two parts, compiler toolchain and runtime.Huawei initially open sourced Ark Compiler for Android platform on GitHub, on September 9, 2019, as they were transitioning away from the operating system via US sanctions.",
"Then the company, open sourced Ark Compiler with OpenArkCompiler as part of the Huawei Ark Compiler open source project (HACOSP) in early February 2022 and ArkJS_runtime, in the previous year in September 2021 after two years of inception in August 2019."

"ArkCompiler JS Runtime provides the capability of compiling and running the JavaScript (JS) language on the OpenHarmony operating system side.ArkCompiler JS Runtime consists of two parts such as the JS compiler toolchain and JS runtime.",
"The JS compiler toolchain compiles JS source code into ArkCompiler bytecodes.",
"The JS runtime executes the generated ArkCompiler bytecodes."
],
[
"ArkCompiler Runtime Core",
"The common module of language runtime in OpenHarmony operating system called ArkCompiler Runtime Core also created as Ark Runtime on top of HarmonyOS Runtime base on current dual-framework, alongside single framework OpenHarmony-based HarmonyOS NEXT which consists of language-independent basic runtime libraries, including ArkCompiler File, Tooling, Base and ISA.",
"The ArkCompiler File provides bytecodes and information required for executing the bytecodes.",
"Tooling supports the runtime debugger.",
"The Base is responsible for implementing platform related utilities.",
"ISA function provides common instruction set architecture that is language-independent that allows to run HarmonyOS applications regardless of different instruction set and chipsets in hardware with great compatibility of diverse set of hardware and interoperability between HarmonyOS, Oniro and OpenHarmony software and hardware ecosystems."
],
[
"ArkCompiler JS Runtime",
"ArkCompiler JS Runtime is the default JS runtime on OpenHarmony.",
"It supports ECMAScript libraries and efficient container libraries.",

"Slade Spice Mill"
],
[
"Introduction",
"'''Slade Spice Mill''' is a historic tide mill located in Revere, Massachusetts listed in the National Register of Historic Places.",
"Originally built for the use of the community to grind locally grown corn, it passed hands until becoming the property of the D&L Slade Company, a prominent spice company.",
"The building was damaged by fire and rebuilt multiple times but retains some of the early timbers, among other notable features."
],
[
"History",
"=== Battle of Chelsea Creek ===The mill played a small part in the American Revolutionary War during the Battle of Chelsea Creek.",
"Situated on Mill Creek, an estuary of the Chelsea River (otherwise known as Chelsea Creek), the mill's gates prevented the British from traveling upstream and coming within firing range of Chelsea.=== D&L Slade Co. ===The D & L Slade Company was a family owned business based out of the Slade Spice Mill.",
"It began by popularizing the grinding of spices and was, at its peak, the largest spice company in New England.",
"The company had offices and a factory in Revere's neighboring city of Boston and distributed its products globally.",
"It also produced cookbooks in which it marketed said products.The first member of the Slade family to come into possession of the mill was Henry Slade, a tobacconist who purchased half of the property on July 29, 1837 and used it to ground corn and snuff.",
"Twenty-two years later, in 1859, Henry's two sons, David and Levi Slade obtained the rights to the rest of the mill.In 1870, two years after Henry Slade's death, David and Levi Slade obtained their father's rights to the mill and dam, becoming the \"sole owners of the ancient mill privileges\" on Mill Creek.Levi Slade died in January 1884.The following year, the mill officially became the property of the D&L Slade company in January, 1885.On July 18th of the same year, the mill burned down for the first time.",
"Shurtleff describes the event in his history of Revere:\"The Forbes Lithograph Company blew its whistle to sound the alarm.",
"Buckets of water were without success, and in less than an hour it was burned to the ground.",
"Revere's hose carriage was brought out by Charles T. Murphy and Spencer Hawkins assisted by Thomas Foxwell's wagon.",
"The hook and ladder truck was brought to the scene by Officer Fenno assisted by Zenas G. Baker's team.",
"Because of insufficient length of hose in the Revere department and the delay in borrowing from the Chelsea fire department, the Chelsea company got the first stream on the burning building.",
"The mill was doomed from the first.",
"Mr. Amos T. Stowers had had charge of the mill for nearly thirty years, during which time he had taken only four days' vacation.",
"The total loss was $15000.The mill was immediately rebuilt by the D. & L. Slade Company.",
"\"The mill caught fire again on July 26, 1901 and November 14, 1902, the second of which incidents caused the death of William J. Fallon, an employee of the company.In 1918, D&L Slade Co. bought out the Bell's Seasoning Company, a major producer of poultry seasoning in New England.",
