[
"Introduction",
"'''Sulaymān Sayyid al-Dawla''' (or '''Sulaymān ibn Hūd''') was the Hudid ruler of the ''taifas'' of Dénia in 1090–1092 and Lleida and Tortosa in 1090–1099.Sulaymān was the son and successor of Mundhir al-Ḥājib.",
"He was a minor at his accession and was under the guardianship of three men of the Banū Batīr, although the ''Memoirs'' of ʿAbd Allāh of Granada mentions a single vizier.",
"The regents divided the ''taifa'' between them, one holding Dénia, one Tortosa and another Játiva.",
"They negotiated the payment of a large annual tribute (''parias'') of 50,000 dinars to the warlord El Cid.",
"They also ceded to El Cid the towns of Lucena, and Villafranca.",
"The vizier of Játiva had the castle of razed after offering it to El Cid in lieu of tribute.",
"Sulaymān's residence was in Dénia.In 1091 or 1092, the Almoravids took Dénia and Játiva.",
"Sulaymān fled to Tortosa.",

"Mundhir al-Hajib"
],
[
"Introduction",
"al-Muqtadir's ''taifa'' , showing the territories of Lleida, Dénia and Tortosa set aside for Mundhir'''ʿImād al-Dawla Mundhir ibn al-Muqtadir''' (died 1090 ), called '''al-Ḥājib''', was the Hudid ruler of the ''taifas'' of Dénia, Lleida and Tortosa from 1081 until his death.Prior to 1081, Mundhir ruled Dénia and Tortosa in the name of his father, al-Muqtadir.",
"(Dénia had been conquered by al-Muqtadir in 1076.)",
"According to the ''Memoirs'' of ʿAbd Allāh of Granada, \"his aged father, however, allowed him no money lest, in view of his impetuosity and thrusting nature, he should oppose his brother\" al-Muʾtamin.",
"In the autumn of 1081, the ill al-Muqtadir divided his realm between his sons, with al-Muʾtamin receiving the western portion based on Zaragoza and Mundhir the eastern one based on Lleida, including Dénia and Tortosa.",
"Al-Muqtadir only died around July 1082.Mundhir, according to ʿAbd Allāh, \"would not submit to al-Muʾtamin, but considered himself his equal because he was good to the troops and displayed generosity towards them\", garnering their loyalty.",
"According to the ''Historia Roderici'', \"a cruel and most durable discord full of hate\" arose between Mundhir and his brother so that at one point they even fixed a date and place for a duel.Mundhir, however, struck an alliance with King Sancho Ramírez of Aragon and Navarre.",
"In late 1081 or early 1082, the allies threatened to seize Monzón in the north of al-Muʾtamin's realm.",
"The Christian warrior Rodrigo Díaz de Vivar, better known as El Cid, who had entered the service of al-Muqtadir and remained loyal to al-Muʾtamin, marched to Peralta de Alcofea in a show of force directed against Mundhir.",
"The next day he forced the surrender of Monzón and its acceptance of al-Muʾtamin as lord.",
"Sancho, having been cut off from Mundhir, elected not to challenge El Cid, who then accepted the submission of Tamarite de Litera.Mundhir then expanded his alliance with the Catalan counties under the leadership of Count Berenguer Ramon II of Barcelona.",
"His success in recruiting Christian allies probably owed something to their fear of Zaragozan expansionism.",
"At the time, Barcelona was co-governed by two brothers, Berenguer Ramon II and Ramon Berenguer II.",
"The former had inherited the ''parias'' (tribute) of Lleida and thus an obligation to protect it.",
"With his new allies, Mundhir laid siege to .",
"He rejected the offer of a ransom to abandon the siege.",
"A relief force under El Cid defeated the allies in the spring or summer of 1082 at the Battle of Almenar.In 1084, El Cid raided the territory around Morella and Olocáu in the ''taifa'' of Tortosa.",
"Mundhir and Sancho Ramírez then jointly invaded Zaragoza but were defeated by El Cid on the banks of the Ebro in August.Mundhir made peace with El Cid in 1090 and died later that year.",
"He was succeeded by a young son, Sulaymān Sayyid al-Dawla."

"Introduction",

"At least two, Melchior Rahm and Duncan Stewart, had died before their state's electors voted; the disposition of the third is unclear.",
"In addition, the status of the three electors from Missouri was a matter of dispute.",
"Congress had passed an enabling act directing Missouri to organize a state government and that \"the said state, when formed, shall be admitted into the Union.\"",
"The dispute was over whether Missouri's new state constitution fulfilled the requirements.",
"In the end, two official vote totals were announced by Congress, one counting Missouri's votes and one not, with neither declared the canonical result — the source of debates over whether Monroe won 231 or 228 electoral votes.",

"Housing crisis in Quebec"
],
[
"Introduction",
"'''Quebec's housing crisis''' (French: ''crise du logement, pénurie du logement,'' or ''crise du marché immobilier'') is a speculative bubble that has severely affected the prices, quality and availability of real estate for people in Quebec and Canada since the 1980s.",
"The average price of a home has risen from $48,715 in 1980 to $424,844 in 2021.This bubble has many causes.",
"It also bears consequences for the quality of life of Quebecers and the economy of Quebec."
],
[
"Historical average for the price of a single-family home",
"'''1980'''$48,715 (2,30 times more than the average revenue of $21,192) '''1990'''$100,811 (2,81 times more than the average revenue of $35,822) '''2000'''$113,291 (2,49 times more than the average revenue of $45,476)'''2010'''$242,476 (4,09 times more than the average revenue of $59,237) '''2021'''$424,844 (4,72 times more than the average revenue of $89,979)The average price of a single-family home doubles every 10 years, and salaries are not keeping pace with these increases.",
"The low interest rates that took hold in the early 2000s, globalization and technology are all cited as having contributed massively to the surge in real estate acquisitions and the meteoric rise in prices."
],
[
"Cities in a critical state",
"Contrary to popular belief, the shortage is not at its worst in Montreal.",
"The city most affected by this crisis is Granby, which in 2022 had a vacancy rate of 0.1%, followed by Marieville (0.1%), Rimouski (0.2%), Drummondville (0.2%), Rouyn-Noranda (0.3%) and Saint-Georges (0.3%)."
],
[
"Causes",
"A variety of causes have combined to create and/or exacerbate the housing shortage in Quebec.",
"These factors include: low interest rates, globalization, zoning, the large amount of rules for new construction, not enough new constructions to meet demand, low property taxes, high immigration, NIMBYs, corporations buying homes, Airbnbs, bidding wars, renovictions, real estate flips, snowwashing, the temporary foreign worker program, foreign students, and lack of government intervention and initiative, among others."
],
[
"Consequences",
"Real estate bubbles have many consequences on society.",
"Quebec may be affected in these ways:* High housing prices force tenants to live in a lower-quality apartment, thereby diminishing their quality of life.",
"This has a negative impact on mental health.",
"* Families have less discretionary income.",
"* The crisis makes it difficult for young adults to leave the nest and move to a new city to pursue job opportunities.",
"* The crisis is causing labor shortages in some places as potential workers can't afford to move to the city.",
"* Businesses receive fewer investments.",
"* The problem increases the disparity between rich and poor.",
"* Birth rates fall as prices rise."
],
[
"Thesis of a systemic failure of public policy",
"For some observers, the housing crisis is caused by a systemic failure of public housing policies over several decades, and is linked to the federal government's decision to withdraw from housing construction in the 1980s.",
"This thesis is echoed by former Canadian Deputy Prime Minister Sheila Copps.",
"According to her, in the 1970s, federal housing policies saw the federal government become more directly involved in housing construction, including the development of housing for the elderly and aboriginals.",
"This changed in the 1980s, when provincial governments assumed powers in housing policy.",
"She argues that \"when provincial governments got their money back (for housing), many of them didn't actually spend it on housing\".",
"She notes, however, that Quebec has often been the exception, using federal money to build social housing."
],
[
"Most affected populations",
"=== Indian Reserves ===The housing crisis is particularly acute on Indian reserves in Quebec, but also across Canada.",
"According to public data, \"in 2011 ..., there was already an estimated shortfall of between 40,000 and 80,000 housing units on reserves.",
"As a result, many Aboriginal people are living in overcrowded homes, with all the social problems this can entail\".",
"In a report presented to the UN General Assembly, Leilani Farha described housing conditions as \"abominable\".",
"Indian reserves fall under federal jurisdiction and are not subject to legislative action by Quebec provincial legislators.",
"That said, the Inuit of Quebec face similar problems, but they don't live on reserves, and their villages have municipal status.=== Single mothers ===Women who are single parents can find it difficult to pay for the rent and children on only a single income.",
"Furthermore, many women who find themselves trapped in a dangerous situation, such as with a violent spouse, have no way out available to them because of the high cost of housing.",
"Shelters are also as overcrowded and in demand as housing itself.",
"In Canada, 43% of single-parent women have housing that is inadequate for their needs or that is unaffordable.The introduction of new social policies, such as family allowances, health care, disability benefits and parental leave, are solutions proposed by governments that are not very effective in this case because they are based on a nuclear family model.A better solution for single mothers is the creation of social housing.",
"These are more suited to the needs of single mothers, and enable better integration into communities.",
"However, its difficult to find funding or land for social housing."

"In 1928, he joined the Czechoslovak Army.",
"He received his commission following training at the Hranice Military Academy."

[
"Career",
"Záruba served as an infantry officer in the Czechoslovak Army and, by 1939, was a company commander in the 21st Infantry Regiment, garrisoned in Čáslav.",
"Following the German occupation of the Czech lands, Záruba was reassigned as a company commander in the 1st Battalion of the Government Army.",
"By the spring of 1945, the 1st Battalion was the only element of the Government Army still inside the Czech lands, with all other battalions having been deployed by the Protector, Wilhelm Frick, to assist German forces then engaged in Italy.On 5 May 1945, Czech Radio staff took control of the Czech Radio broadcasting center, commandeering its equipment to transmit an appeal for a national uprising.",
"German forces quickly stormed the building but were delayed in locating the newsroom due to the earlier removal of directional signage inside the labyrinthine structure.",
"The insurgent radio staff used the delay to broadcast an appeal for armed assistance: At the 1st Battalion's barracks, Záruba was summoned by General Karel Pražák who told him \"the hour of reckoning\" had arrived.",
"He was ordered by Pražák to lead a company of Government Army soldiers to clear the radio center of German forces and defend it from further attack.",

"With the adjacent streets still held by a company-sized element of ''Waffen SS'', however, Záruba and his men continued to use the damaged building as a center of operations.",

"Vokes and Grieg had earlier escaped Stalag VIII-B but had been stranded in Prague while attempting to travel west to reconnect with British forces.",

"Záruba agreed to participate in the bluff and he, the two Britons, and two additional Czech soldiers approached the German command post at the Na Smetance school under a flag of truce.",
"The German commander was taken in by the feint and, with Berlin itself on the verge of capitulation, agreed to surrender to Záruba late in the evening of May 7.Following these events, Záruba supervised the construction of barricades intended to forestall the movement of German reinforcements into Prague.",
"On 8 May the day before the liberation of Prague by Marshal of the Soviet Union Ivan Konev, a position he was holding on Balbínova Street was hit in a German airstrike.",

"Introduction",
"'''Paleo-Arabic''' (or '''Palaeo-Arabic''', sometimes also referred to as '''pre-Islamic Arabic''' or '''Old Arabic''') is a script that represents a phase in the evolution of the Arabic script.",
"It comes prior to Classical Arabic, but it is also a recognizable form of the Arabic script, emerging after a transitional phase of Nabataean Arabic as the Nabataean script slowly evolved into the modern Arabic script.''''''",
"It appears in the late fifth and sixth centuries and, though was originally only known from Syria and Jordan, is now also attested in several extant inscriptions from the Arabian Peninsula, such as in the Christian texts at the site of Hima in South Arabia.",
"More recently, additional examples of Paleo-Arabic have been discovered near Taif in the Hejaz and in the Tabuk region of northwestern Saudi Arabia.The term \"Paleo-Arabic\" was first used by Christian Robin in the form of the French expression \"paléo-arabe\"."
],
[
"Categories",
"Known Paleo-Arabic inscriptions fall into one of three categories: (1) simple signatures with no confessional statements (2) monotheist invocations (3) specifically Christian texts."
],
[
"Terminology",
"Furthermore, inscriptions in this script most commonly refer to \"God\" as al-ʾilāh or by its orthographic variant illāh, though the term \"Rabb\" for \"Lord\" also appears as is seen in the Abd Shams inscription, Jabal Dabub inscription, and the Ri al-Zallalah inscription."
],
[
"Calendar",
"Several Paleo-Arabic inscriptions, including the Jebel Usays inscription and the Hima Paleo-Arabic inscriptions typically date events according to the Bostran era, whose beginning is the equivalent of the year 106 in the Gregorian calendar.",

"She was a Polish novelist and published fictional works in French under the pseudonym Ary Ecilaw."
],
[
"Biography",
"Her father was a chamberlain of the Russian Empire, Adam Józef Erazm Hutten-Czapski, and her mother was Marianna Rzewuska, a countess of the Russian Empire.",
"She had a brother, Adam, and a sister, Henrietta.",
"She was Catholic and grew up in Paris, France.",
"She left with her mother and sister for Stockholm, Sweden, in 1870.On 21 February 1873, in the Russian church in Vevey, Switzerland, she married the Russian resident minister Alexander von Kolemine (1844–1894), whom she had met during a trip to Switzerland.",
"Their only son Yuri was born in 1874 in Switzerland.",
"The couple had a stormy relationship, moved to Darmstadt, Germany, and divorced in March 1884.Her second husband was Louis IV, Grand Duke of Hesse, recently widowed with the death of his wife Princess Alice.",
"The morganatic marriage of Louis and Alexandrine lasted only a few months from 30 April to 9 July 1884, because of objections by the grand duke's late wife's mother, Queen Victoria.",
"The union was annulled and the court in Leipzig approved the divorce on 19 December 1884.From her husband, Aleksandra received the title of Countess of Romrod and a life pension.",
"Based on an extensive interview with her, a brochure was published in Leipzig, Germany, entitled ''Frau Kolemine'', in which she was presented in a good light.=== Pseudonym ===Her literary career gained momentum beginning in 1884 and in a short time, her books typically reached five or six editions.",
"It was believed that the writer behind the pseudonym '''Ary Ecilaw''' was a woman (it was also suspected incorrectly that it could be the French publisher Alphonse Lemerre).",
"It was thought the author was someone who knew the secrets of European courts and that French was not the native language.",
"Several of Ecilaw's books were translated into English: Roland'', or The Expiation of a Sin'' and ''Le Roi de Thessalie'' (The ''Romance of a German Court'' ) were published by Remington & Co in 1886; an alternative translation of ''Le Roi de Thessalie'' by NT Laylock (English: ''Her Royal Lover'') was published in New York in 1890.",
"''Le Roi de Thessalie'' was also translated into Italian.",
"The novels were a success, according to Soroka,\"In 1885 and 1886, Aleksandra Adamovna published in Paris under the pseudonym 'Ary Ecilaw.'",
"''Le Roi de Thessalie'' (The King of Thessaly) narrated the story of Kolemina's two marriages and divorces...",
"The book became a scandalous success and was translated from its original French into several other languages.",
"Today it reads poorly, the only lively parts being those in which Aleksandra Adamovna takes bites out of her heroine's enemies: the red-faced, short, and fat Queen Victoria and her brutal son-in-law the German Crown Prince Frederic.\"",
"... \"Aleksandra Adamovna produced two more novels as Ary Ecilaw.",
"One, ''Une Altesse Imperiale'' (An Imperial Highness), a lurid romance about the Romanovs, went through six editions within ten days of publication.\"",
"In September 1892 or May 1893, she married Vasily Romanovich Bacheracht (1851–1916), secretary of the Russian Empire embassy who served in several countries, with his last post in Switzerland.",
"They had no children, but Vasily remained on good terms with his stepson Yuri.",
"By the end of the 19th century, Aleksandra Adamovna Kolemina-Bacheracht was no longer mentioned in the press except for one exception, when she visited the Sultan's harem in Marrakesh, Morocco, and sent gifts to his wives.",
"=== Personal life ===On 22 July 1927, she received Swiss citizenship through naturalization.",
"In the last years of her life, she lived at the Hotel Trois Couronnes in Vevey.",
"She died there at 95 on 5 or 8 May 1941 and was buried next to her last husband in the cemetery of St. Martin's parish."

"Introduction",
"'''''Minqaria''''' (meaning \"beak\") is a genus of arenysaurinin lambeosaurine hadrosaur from the Late Cretaceous (Maastrichtian) Ouled Abdoun Basin of Morocco.",
"The genus contains a single species, '''''M.",
"bata''''', known from a partial skull."
],
[
"Discovery and naming",
"Lambeosaurinae fossil localities in Morocco.",
"''Minqaria'' was found in the Sidi Chennane locality.The ''Minqaria'' holotype specimen, MHNM.KHG.1395, was discovered in sediments of the Oulad Abdoun Basin (upper Couche III, Sidi Chennane locality) of Morocco.",
"The specimen consists of a partial skull, including a right maxilla, left dentary, and braincase.In 2024, Longrich ''et al''.",
"described ''Minqaria bata'' as a new genus and species of arenysaurin hadrosaurid based on these fossil remains.",
"The generic name, \"'''Minqaria''\", is Arabic for \"beak\".",
"The specific name, \"''bata''\", is Arabic for \"duck\"."
],
[
"Description",
"Life restoration''Minqaria'' is estimated as being long with a weight of 250 kilogrammes, similar in size to its contemporary relative ''Ajnabia''.",
"Since the braincase bones are fused, the ''Minqaria'' holotype likely belonged to a mature specimen, despite its small size.",
"It can be differentiated from other arenysaurins, including ''Ajnabia'', in several features of its crania and teeth."
],
[
"Classification",
"Longrich ''et al.''",
"(2024) placed ''Minqaria'' in a phylogenetic analysis and found it to belong to the hadrosaurid clade Arenysaurini, in a clade containing ''Ajnabia'', also known from the Ouled Abdoun Basin, and other Moroccan lambeosaurines with the uniting character \"from Africa\" from their dataset.",
"Their cladogram is shown below:"
],
[
"Palaeoecology",
"Late Maastrichtian dinosaurs of Morocco, including ''Minqaria'' (far right), ''Ajnabia'', ''Chenanisaurus'', and several unnamed specimensThe holotype specimen was recovered from the phosphates of the Ouled Abdoun Basin of north-central Morocco.",
"The phosphates are a nearshore marine environment, dominated by sharks, fish, mosasaurs, and other marine reptiles.",
"Dinosaurs are less common, however, but include at least three hadrosaurids including fellow arenysaurin ''Ajnabia'', the large abelisaurid ''Chenanisaurus barbaricus'', two other potentially distinct abelisaurids of smaller size, and an unnamed titanosaurian.",
"Moroccan lambeosaurine fossils belonging to individuals of various sizes, including the holotype of ''Minqaria'', indicate that hadrosaurs were diverse and abundant within the ecosystem.",
"These dinosaurs would have lived in the very latest Cretaceous (Late Maastrichtian) approximately 1 million years before the K-Pg boundary and the Chicxulub asteroid impact that wiped out the dinosaurs.===Palaeobiogeography===Restoration of ''Chenanisaurus'' hunting ''Ajnabia'', a close relative of ''Minqaria''Hadrosaurs, the taxonomic group ''Minqaria'' is assigned to, had not been documented from Africa until the discovery of the contemporary ''Ajnabia''; their closest lambeosaurine relatives are all known from Europe.",
"Given this taxonomic position and reconstructions of Late Cretaceous continents and seas, oceanic dispersal between Europe and North Africa is considered the only viable explanation for the presence of hadrosaurs like ''Minqaria'' and ''Ajnabia'' in Africa.",
"While oceanic dispersal has been considered for the distribution of European hadrosaurs, intermittent land connections as a means of dispersal can not be ruled out.",
"The much more prominent oceanic barrier between Europe and Africa, characterized by deep waters, makes ''Ajnabia'' far stronger evidence of this phenomenon, as varying conditions could narrow the gap but not conceivably bridge it entirely.",
"Further evidence for the oceanic dispersal as the model for lambeosaur dispersal also exists from the lack of a more complete interchange of fauna between locations, expected from land bridge dispersal.",
"Possible means of dispersal include swimming, drifting, or rafting (wherein animals are transported on top of floating debris or vegetation).",
"Rafting is considered unlikely for a large animal, but it may be possible that young hadrosaurs could be transported this way.Map of the continents in the Late Cretaceous, the southern \"Gondwanan\" continents were diverging and Northern Africa was an islandMore broadly speaking, the Maastrichtian fauna of the Northern African ecosystem ''Minqaria'' inhabited seems biogeographically linked more to Gondwanan faunas—that is, those of the southern continents—than those of Europe and the other Laurasian continents of the Northern Hemisphere.",
"While Laurasia is characterized by tyrannosaurids and herbivorous coelurosaurs, Gondwana is dominated by titanosaurs and abelisaurs, as seen in Morocco.",
"Despite this, a degree of endemism is noted, similar to that of other Gondwanan continents.",
"A small abelisaur from the Sidi Daoui region is unlike those from South America or India, but may be related to North African forms from earlier in the Cretaceous or similarly sized abelisaurs in Europe; likewise, ''Chenanisaurus'' may represent a distinct lineage from other known abelisaurs.",
"Inversely, other Gondwanan animals from South America such as ankylosaurs, unenlagiines, elasmarians, and megaraptorids are not documented in Africa.",
"This endemism is explained by the fragmentation of the former Gondwanan supercontinent into increasingly distant landmasses, leading to the ancestrally linked faunas of different southern continents becoming distinct.",
"Even within the African continent, the presence of a Trans-Saharan seaway connecting the Tethys Ocean of Europe to the Gulf of Guinea may have isolated the fauna of Northern Africa from more southern portions of the continent, such as fossil-bearing sites in Kenya, and Morocco itself may have been an isolated island."

"found that the album \"presents new ideas and tones to the choppy, distant and sparse sounds that emanate from a post-punk scene that draws inspiration from bands like Television\".Chris Ingalls of ''PopMatters'' stated that Omni's change of labels \"seems to have clearly energized the duo, as the meticulous nature of the compositions and arrangements becomes apparent from the very start\", writing that the band \"enjoys delving into rich lyrical subject matter while keeping musical arrangements layered and unpredictable\".",
"''Pitchfork''s Abby Jones wrote that \"Omni's layered influences amount to a complex and absorbing churn, but here, the band sounds a bit depthless; frenzied guitar riffs can only evoke so much when there's so little stylistic variation between them\"."

"Extermination (crime)"
],
[
"Introduction",
"'''Extermination''' is a crime against humanity that consists of \"the act of killing on a large scale\".",
"To be convicted of this crime, someone must play a role in a sufficiently-large scale killing of civilians, including those carried out by \"the intentional infliction of conditions of life... calculated to bring about the destruction of part of a population\".",
"It was first prosecuted at the International Military Tribunal in Nuremberg, and was included in the enumerated crimes against humanity in the Rome Statute."
],
[
"History",
"Extermination was listed as a crime against humanity in the Nuremberg charter (as well as the charter for the Tokyo trial) and was first tried at the International Military Tribunal in 1945.Czech jurist Egon Schwelb argued that the purpose of its inclusion, alongside murder, was to enable the prosecution of perpetrators too remote from the act of killing to be charged as murder.",
"Following these prosecutions, it was generally accepted to have become part of customary international law.",
"It was codified into the Rome Statute in 1998."
],
[
"Elements",
"Like other crimes against humanity, extermination must be \"committed as part of a widespread or systematic attack directed against any civilian population\", but can occur in peacetime as well as wartime (unlike war crimes).",
"Similar to other international crimes, extermination includes both an ''actus reus'' (an act of large-scale killing) and ''mens rea'' (the intent to participate in this action).",
"The definition of the crime according to the Rome Statute is mostly aligned with that of customary international law.",
"According to William Schabas and other jurists, the only difference from customary international law was to specify that the crime of extermination includes \"the intentional infliction of conditions of life, ''inter alia'' the deprivation of access to food and medicine, calculated to bring about the destruction of part of a population\"—phrasing that Schabas argues was inspired by one of the elements of the crime of genocide, \"deliberately inflicting on the group conditions of life calculated to bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part.",
"\"===Actus reus===The perpetrator's action must have composed part of a large-scale killing, whether one that took place at one time or one location, or a series of incidents that accumulate to sufficient massiveness.",
"A plan or policy is not necessary.",
"Separate incidents must be sufficiently connected to each other to be understood as one operation.",
"There is no minimum size threshold for the crime; it is assessed based on the circumstances, although case law has recognized incidents ranging from dozens to thousands of victims.",
"The collective nature of the crime is satisfied by being of sufficient scale.",
"The victims may be targeted as individuals, and it is not required that the crime target a particular group of civilians or aim at the extermination of part of this group.",
"(Similar acts not connected to large-scale killing are likely to count as the crime against humanity of murder instead).",
"Playing a role in the part of killing at least one person as part of a mass killing event is sufficient, although the prosecution does not need to prove that the accused caused the death of any particular person.",
"The accused's role might be commission, omission, or a combination of both; encouragement, assistance, or indirect planning.",
"The method of killing is not relevant; it could be carried out indirectly, for example depriving civilians of food or medicine, \"creating a humanitarian crisis\", blocking aid delivery, forcing people on a death march, or refusing shelter.===Mens rea===The accused must have intended to engage in large scale killings, or to subject a large number of people to conditions that would be likely to cause their deaths.",
"It is not required that the accused personally intended to kill on a large scale if it can be proven that their action was committed with the knowledge that it formed part of a sufficiently large-scale killing event.",
"This might be proved by various means, such as large-scale logistics needed for certain types of killing.",
"The motives for committing the crime are irrelevant; unlike persecution, discriminatory intent is not required."
],
[
"Comparison with other international crimes",
"Extermination (as well as the crime against humanity of murder) is similar to genocide, and could cover the same events.",
"Unlike genocide, extermination as a crime against humanity is not required to be committed with intent to destroy an ethnic, religious, or national group.",
"Extermination is a crime committed against individuals, although on a large scale.The same underlying events might support a prosecution for extermination as well as the war crime of starvation."

[
"History",
"Rear view of the ElectraMeccanica SoloInterior of the ElectraMeccanica SoloThe concept of a three-wheeled small electric car when founding ElectraMeccanica in 2015 was initially intended to take the form of implementing an existing project.",
"Co-founder Jerry Kroll was then considering restoring the former American Myers Motors NmG model, to which he had purchased the rights, to production.",
"Ultimately, this three-wheeled vehicle remained only a reference point for building a new, larger and more technologically advanced vehicle.",
"Sketches of the finished design were officially presented in June 2016, and the production model was finally presented 3 months later.The Solo took the form of a three-wheeler with one pair of doors and a slim body that tapered towards the rear unicycle.",
"Similarly to the original by Mike Corbin from 1996, the Solo was designed to transport only one person, the driver.",
"The spaciousness of the passenger cabin was to ensure, among others, relatively large, over 2-meter wheelbase.",
"Behind the driver there is space for a 285-litre trunk.",
"In 2022, a Cargo variant with an enlarged transport compartment was also offered."
],
[
"Sale",
"Production of the Solo initially began at ElectraMeccanica's Canadian factory in New Westminster, initially for the domestic market, with the first delivery to a customer in Vancouver.",
"In 2021, production was moved to China as part of a partnership with the local company Zongshen from Chongqing to meet demand in the United States, where exports began 3 years after the first units were built.",
"In 2022, production was moved again, this time to newly established plants in Mesa, Arizona.",
"After 5 years of small-scale production, the new management team of the Canadian startup, which in the meantime had been entirely transferred to the United States, changed its policy and ended the production of Solo.",
"The company offered to buy vehicles from buyers, responding to previously reported defects that could become difficult to service over time."

"Workers' Dwelling Act 1905"
],
[
"Introduction",
"The '''Workers' Dwelling Act 1905''' was an Act of Parliament in New Zealand, and formed the basis for the country's earliest state housing scheme."
],
[
"Background",
"The Act allowed the Government to purchase land under the Lands for Settlements Act 1900, develop it with housing, and sell it to workers.",
"The Act sought to alleviate housing pressures experienced by slum-dwelling working class members, especially those in the largest urban centres such as Wellington.",
"The Act also addressed smaller urban centres, such as Nelson, but to a lesser extent.",
"The initial regime allowed a dwelling to be sold to the worker gradually, often via a weekly rent after an initial fixed deposit.The Act's housing scheme utilised standardised designs of dwellings.",
"These designs were selected by a competition.",
"Of the 150 designs submitted, only 34 were selected to be used.",
"These were then split into two sets: one for the North Island and the other for the South Island.",
"The designs were split into these sets based on how well they were suited to each Island's climate.Many of the dwellings - especially the initial developments - were placed outside of the urban centres.",
"Dwellings were built in Petone far from the railway station and tram connections.",
"This is cited as being a deterrent to many workers, who were employed in Wellington City; rent and commuting fares worked out to be as high as a third of the workers income.",
"Houses built under the Act on Coromandel Street, Wellington126 houses had been built under the Act by 1910.By 1919 this number had risen to 657.The law was repealed in that year by the Workers' Dwellings Act 1919."

"It was legislated in response to incidents of violence towards infants by caregivers in day care centers, which led to widespread parental protests across the country and the promotion of the law."
],
[
"History",
"The Compulsory Education Law, which came into effect in 1949, applies to children aged three and above in Israel.",
"Due to an increase in birth rates between 2000 and 2018, many educational frameworks for children from birth to three years old were established, in addition to those under the supervision of the Ministry of Labor, Welfare, and Social Services, which are not fully monitored by the state.",
"In 1965, the \"Supervision of Day Care Centers Law\" was legislated, focusing on supervision over day care centers housing vulnerable individuals such as children, the elderly, physically disabled, or mentally challenged individuals.",
"This law stated that every infant day care center hosting two or more children must be supervised.",
"In 2018, a new law was enacted regarding day care centers for infants, stating: \"Any person operating or seeking to operate a day care center for infants intended for the stay of seven infants or more is required to have a permanent or temporary operating license, as applicable, which must be requested from the official responsible for implementing the law.",
"\"The law was led by MK Yifat Shasha-Biton and MK Karin Elharar following incidents of abuse by caregivers towards infants that were documented and published.",
"The law was approved by the Knesset on December 24, 2018, with most of its provisions set to commence on September 1, 2019, and the commencement of sections 9, 12(1), and 13 set for September 1, 2020.In the summer of 2020, the Minister of Welfare Itzik Shmuli and the Minister of Justice Avi Nissenkorn announced their commitment to the immediate implementation of the law."
],
[
"Main Provisions of the Law",

"According to the law, cameras are to be installed in every space where the infants stay, except for restrooms and bathing areas, to protect the privacy of both the caregivers and the infants.",
"Video recordings will be stored for a period of 30 days and then deleted, except for exceptions granted by the committee responsible for the law.In cases of suspected mental or physical harm to infants or to prevent such harm, access to the recordings will be granted to the day care inspector, the head of the department for day care and early childhood family centers at the ministry, and the Israel Police, or another entity by court order.",
"The installation of cameras in a day care located in a private residence or within a medical institution is excluded, as well as in cases where at least 70% of the infants' parents oppose in writing the installation of cameras.",
"The law calls for financial support from the state for the installation of cameras.",
"It emphasizes that this law does not exempt from the duty to report, whereby an adult or educator aware of abuse against a minor is obligated to report it to the authorities."

"Alleluia piis edite laudibus"
],
[
"Introduction",
"'''''Alleluia piis edite laudibus''''' (Alleluia to the pious praises), also known as '''''Alleluia perenne''''' (Alleluia forever), is a medieval Latin hymn sung during the week before Septuagesima as a preparation for the dismissal of \"Alleluia\" during Lent."
],
[
"History",
"The hymn originates in the Mozarabic rite.",
"The words are found in the Mozarabic Breviary, in which it is said to be an office hymn for first vespers, second vespers, and lauds on the first Sunday in Lent and the Saturday preceding.",
"John Julian, in ''A Dictionary of Hymnology'', notes that the hymn cannot be dated to later than the 8th century, at which time hymns were no longer admitted.",
"John Mason Neale, in ''Mediæval Hymns and Sequences'', notes that theme of the hymn, that \"Alleluia\" is perpetually sung in heaven, is echoed in the ''capitula'', the ''benediction'', and the ''lauda'' of the liturgy for the day.The hymn was translated into English as ''Sing Alleluia forth in duteous praise'' by John Ellerton."
],
[
"Melody",
"Various melodies are currently in use.",
"Hymn tunes include ''Alleluia perenne'' by William Henry Monk, ''Endless Alleluia'' by Joseph Barnby, ''Martins'' by Percy Carter Buck, and ''Piepkorn'' by Robert Buckley Farlee."
],
[
"Lyrics",
"The hymn establishes the perpetuity of the alleluia in heaven, underscoring the hope of its gladsome return, and the security that there the Church never ceases to sing \"Alleluia\" throughout the year.",
"It is in contrast with the hymn ''Alleluia, dulce carmen'', which acknowledges that the \"Alleluia\" is sung perpetually in heaven, yet laments that during our earthly exile, we must put away the \"Alleluia\" for a time, as we repent of our sins during the season of Lent.Here is the lyric translation by English church musician William Henry Monk: Alleluia piis edite laudibus,Cives ætherei, psallite unanimiterAlleluia perenne.Hinc vos perpetui luminis accolæAd summum resonate hymniferis chorisAlleluia perenne.Vos Urbs eximia suscipiet Dei,Quæ lætis resonans cantibus, excitatAlleluia perenne.Felici reditu gaudia sumite,Reddentes Domino glorificum melos,Alleluia perenne.Almum sidereæ iam Patriæ decusVictores capite, quo canere possitisAlleluia perenne.Illic Regis honor vocibus inclitisIocundum reboat carmine perpetimAlleluia perenne.Hoc fessis requies, hoc cibus, hoc potusOblectans reduces, haustibus affluensAlleluia perenne.Te suavisonis conditor affatimRerum carminibus, laudeque pangimusAlleluia perenne.Te Christe celebrat gloria vocibusNostris omnipotens, ac tibi dicimus:Alleluia perenne:Alleluia perenne.",
"Amen.Sing Alleluia forth in duteous praise,O citizens of heaven, and sweetly raiseAn endless Alleluia.Ye next, who stand before th' Eternal light,In hymning choirs re-echo to the HeightAn endless Alleluia.The Holy City shall take up your strain,And with glad songs resounding wake againAn endless Alleluia.In blissful antiphons ye thus rejoiceTo render to the Lord with thankful voiceAn endless Alleluia.Ye who have gained at length your palms in bliss,Victorious ones, your chant shall still be this,An endless Alleluia.There, in one grand acclaim for ever ringThe strains which tell the honour of your King,An endless Alleluia.This is the rest for weary ones brought back;This is glad food and drink which none shall lack,--An endless Alleluia.While Thee, by whom were all things made, we praiseFor ever, and tell out in sweetest laysAn endless Alleluia.Almighty Christ, to Thee our voices singGlory for evermore; to Thee we bringAn endless Alleluia."

"Introduction",
"'''Estrella Azul''' is a Panamanian dairy products brand.",
"The brand was once partly owned by American soda company Coca-Cola."
],
[
"History",
"Estrella Azul and the brand's parent company, Industrias Lácteas, S.A., were both founded in 1956, the result of a union of Panamanian dairy-producing families.In 1973, the Estrella Azul brand expanded to include yogurts.In 2018, Estrella Azul announced to Panamanian grade-A milk producers that it was not going to keep buying milk from them.",
"As a consequence, their competitor, Productos Nevada, announced that they would buy 240,000 additional liters of milk a month from those producers affected.",
"Later on, Estrella Azul announced it was temporarily suspending the cutting of buying grade-A milk.During 2020, it was announced that Honduran dairy products company Lacthosa was interested in buying Estrella Azul.",
"That same year, Coca-Cola FEMSA decided to sell their percentage of Estrella Azul.",
"Coca-Cola's percentage of Estrella Azul and its parent company were sold to Panama Dairy Ventures, which then became the only owners of Estrella Azul.During 2021, Estrella Azul's workers went on strike.Troubles loomed for the brand again in 2022 when more than 1,000 Industrias Lácteas S.A. workers threatened to go on strike again; this time, the strike was, however, averted when negotiations between the company's workers' union (SITEFA) and the company's negotiators team were successful, after mediation by Panama's Work and Labor Development Ministry (MITRADEL).During 2023, Estrella Azul announced that their dairy plants were at full capacity, and that due to that, their Chiriqui plant would not be able to receive any more milks."

"Miss Marekin"
],
[
"Introduction",
"'''Thomas Fernandes''', known professionally as '''Miss Marekin''', was an early 20th-century Goan theatre actor, female impersonator, and tailor who worked on the Konkani stage."
],
[
"Career",
"The inclusion of women in the Konkani ''tiatr'' stage was preceded by a scarcity of female performers.",
"Consequently, male actors assumed female roles, some of whom displayed proficiency to the point of convincingly portraying women, writes director and playwright John Claro.",
"Among these actors was Fernandes, who, over several decades, garnered recognition for his portrayal of female characters in Konkani ''tiatr'', writes André Raphael Fernandes.",
"Fernandes, alongside male artists such as Andrew Fernandes, Remmie Colaco, and Effie, played a pivotal role in sustaining and invigorating the Konkani ''tiatr'' tradition.",
"Their contributions not only ensured the survival of the art form during the absence of female performers but also infused it with grace and vitality, as noted by writer Irene Cardozo.Fernandes established a close association with J. P. Souzalin, a Konkani playwright and singer, frequently featuring in his ''tiatr'' productions.",
"Furthermore, Fernandes gained acclaim for his comedic role in ''Mhozo Nouro'' (My Boyfriend), a theatrical production by singer and composer Minguel Rod, which showcased his talent.",
"Writer Fausto V. da Costa lauds Fernandes as a distinguished character actor who portrayed various roles, including mothers, troublesome mother-in-laws, female gossips, aunts, and other comedic characters.",
"Fernandes also collaborated with other popular directors of his time, including Jacinto Vaz, C. Alvares, and, in later years, Prem Kumar.",
"Fernandes was a member of the Kid-Young-Rod trio, led by Minguel Rod, alongside Kid Boxer and Young Menezes.",
"The trio gained acclaim, and performances under their banner were consistently sold out.",
"The members of the group included Diniz Simoes, Master Vaz, Edward Almeida, C. Pereira, Miss Julie, Miss Estrela, and Cruz Jazzwala.",
"As time went on, some members of Fernandes's group departed and were replaced by emerging ''tiatrists''.",
"During this period, Fernandes collaborated with Miss Julie and Miss Ida, two female impersonators known for their portrayal of female characters.",
"The prefix 'Miss' was added to their stage names to reflect their specialization.Fernandes and Minguel Rod shared a longstanding association, dating back to Rod's early years as an aspiring artist in Bombay (now Mumbai).",
"Fernandes even appeared in one of Rod's untitled short plays, performed in Bombay prior to 1941.Throughout his career, Fernandes achieved recognition as one of the leading ''tiatrists'', alongside artists such as João Agostinho Fernandes, Souza Ferrão, Ernest Rebello, J. P. Souzalin, Andrew Fernandes, Saib Rocha, Miss Julie, Miss Carlota, Dioginho D'Mello, Minguel Rod, and Young Menezes.",
"In addition to his work with Rod, Fernandes ventured into other productions, including Ernest Rebello's ''tiatr Avoicho Gutt'' (Mother's Secret), where he acted opposite Joao Bautist Lobo and Seby Coutinho in their debut Konkani stage performances.",
"Fernandes played a supporting role in Konkani comedian Jacinto Vaz's ''tiatr Maim ani Sun'' (Mother and Daughter-in-law) on 21 February 1955.He also made appearances in ''tiatrs'' by playwright and singer J.",
"A. Lobato."
],
[
"Personal life",
"A turn at Warden Road, BombayThere is limited personal information available about Fernandes's life.",
"According to the book ''Tiatr 125th Commemorative Volume'', Fernandes originally hailed from Bardez ''taluka'', Goa, which was part of Portuguese India during the Portuguese Empire (now located in India).",
"He supposedly relocated, possibly for better employment opportunities.",
"Writer Fausto V. da Costa, one of the authors of the book, writes that Fernandes lived near Bhatia Hospital at Warden Road (now Breach Candy) in Bombay, which was then part of Bombay Presidency in British India.",
"Da Costa also writes that Fernandes was a tailor by profession and not a full-time ''tiatrist'' or theatre performer.",
"It is also likely that in Bombay, Fernandes began his career on the Konkani stage, though further information is not currently available."

"Introduction",
"'''''Palaealectoris''''' is an extinct monotypic genus of landfowl, belonging to the family Tetraonidae, distantly related with modern grouses.",
"Its fossilized remains, found in the Marsland Formation, a part of the Agate Fossil Beds National Monument in Nebraska, and in the Calvert Formation in Maryland, are dated from the Early Miocene."
],
[
"History and etymology",
"The first remains associated with the genus, a fragmentary tibiotarsus, were collected in May 1925 in marine strata belonging to the Miocene-aged Calvert Formation, near Chesapeake Beach, Maryland, by Remington Kellogg and Norman Boss.The holotype remains of ''Palaealectoris'' were collected during the summer of 1928 by Erich Maren Schlaikjer in Lower Miocene deposits belonging to the Agate Fossil Beds in Sioux County, Nebraska.",
"The genus was first described shortly after, in 1930, by Alexander Wetmore, at Schlaikjer's demandn, based on the two extremities of a left humerus, with ''P.",
"incertus'' as the type species.",
"The Maryland remains were described as ''Palaealectoris'' sp."
],
[
"Description",
"''Palaealectoris'' was a medium-sized landfowl, intermediate in size between the bobwhites and the spruce grouse.",
"The superior crest of the humerus shared several similarities in development with that of the chachalacas, although this was probably a convergent adaptation.",
"The general shape of the humerus is however sufficient to assign it to the Tetraonidae family, although it represents an abherrant form.The fragmentary tibiotarsus from the Calvert Formation associated with the genus was distinctly similar, although smaller, with that of the modern spruce grouse.",
"It was similar in size with the holotype humerus of ''P.",
"incertus'', which justified its association with the genus."

"Bradfield, New South Wales (1924-1977)"
],
[
"Introduction",
"'''Bradfield''', the western portion of which was also known as '''Bradfield Park''', was a suburb on the North Shore of Sydney, Australia between 1924 and 1977, since absorbed by neighbouring Lindfield.The name commemorates Dr John Job Crew Bradfield, who oversaw design and construction of the Sydney Harbour Bridge between 1913 and 1932."
],
[
"Bradfield subdivision",
"The North Shore suburbs north of Chatswood initially developed as a narrow ribbon straddling the North Shore railway line.",
"These early subdivisions were fringed by orchards, vineyards and scrub.",
"Following World War I, wider availability of private motor vehicles and new privately owned bus services made it possible to live further from the railway stations.Construction commenced on the Sydney Harbour Bridge in 1923.The project meant that the Shore would at last have a direct road, rail and tramway connection to Sydney's central business district.",
"Seizing the opportunity, in 1924 Ku-ring-gai Shire Deputy President Christopher Thistlethwayte proposed that his fellow councillors allow the Moore Estate, of which his family owned a share, to be subdivided for residential development.",
"The Estate was made up of around 250 hectares on the western side of Lindfield, in the ridges and valleys leading down to an old racecourse and the Lane Cove River beyond.To ensure that prospective buyers did not miss the link between the bridge's completion and the future value of the land, he proposed that it be named after the project's high-profile chief engineer, John Bradfield.",
"The Council agreed to Thistlethwayte's plan: shire president John Lockley considered the engineer, who lived in nearby Gordon, to be \"Ku-ring-gai’s greatest citizen\".Bradfield's wife Edith officiated at the naming ceremony, held on 19 July 1924.One of the attendees, local MP and future premier Tom Bavin, predicted that \"Dr Bradfield's name would be closely connected with the bridge itself and North Shore generally for all time.",
"\"A plan of the suburb was drawn up by a \"prominent town-planner\" and the first lots, along Provincial Road between Primula Street and Fiddens Wharf Road, were auctioned in 1927.The following year, the ''Sunday Times'' real estate section enthused:Because of its mountain air, and its lovely forest areas, this region is becoming more and more popular with people who wish to make their homes handy to the city, and yet be able to get into a quiet and restful atmosphere once they late left shop, office, or factory.",
"For the home-maker, there is no more desirable locality than this.",
"It is about above sea level, is situated in undulating country, possesses charming scenic surroundings, and most attractive sites for homes.",
"It has been correctly described as a garden suburb.",
"In this region people get the benefit of mountain air and escape the humidity of places nearer the sea.The subdivision was promoted heavily on the basis of its proximity to Killara Golf Course and the future completion of the Bridge.",
"But with the latter still years away, interest in the suburb was slow to build.",
"In 1928, Highfield Road was extended west, and lots were offered on the new Bell Avenue, Bradfield Road, Dorman Crescent and Moore Avenue.",
"Moore Avenue, which led south through the estate to Fullers Bridge, was planned to form part of a secondary route north parallel to what later became the Pacific Highway.",
"This road, championed by local councils along the route but never completed, was known as \"The Broadway\".",
"Access to the area improved further in 1933, when Moore Avenue/Broadway was extended north to De Burghs Bridge.",
"It was renamed Lady Game Drive in honour of the Governor's wife Gwendolen.The next area to develop was on the western fringe of the estate: what is now Carramar Road (until the 1960s known as Cooyong Road), Charles Street, Edmund Street, Johnson Street and Knox Street.",
"In the centre of the suburb, the wedge-shaped area of open space between Bradfield Road and Lady Game Drive became known as 'Bradfield Park'.",
"The site played host to the Australasian Jamboree of Boy Scouts in December 1938 to January 1939."
],
[
"Bradfield Park",
"Bradfield Park's life as a recreation reserve was brief.",
"In 1939, the site was acquired by the Commonwealth Government and used to build a Royal Australian Air Force and Women's Auxiliary Australian Air Force training camp, RAAF Station Bradfield Park.",
"The base became the largest air force instruction centre in the country, with capacity for 1,000 recruits.=== Post-war housing crisis ===The Great Depression and World War II had brought a halt to almost all residential construction in Australia.",
"When the war ended, Sydney was estimated to be 'short' 90,000 houses.",
"The NSW Government exacerbated the situation.",
"Not only did it add to homelessness by undertaking slum clearance before replacement homes had been built; it crippled the private rental market by enforcing rent controls.",
"This ensured no new rental properties would be built, while incentivising landlords to find ways to evict incumbent tenants.Like its counterparts in other states, the recently-established NSW Housing Commission sought to take over empty military camps for use as temporary accommodation.",
"The Commonwealth agreed to lease only part of the Bradfield Park site to the Commission: its own Assisted Passage Migration Scheme meant that it was now responsible for housing thousands of immigrants from Europe.",
"For the Commission, Bradfield Park was to become one of three so-called \"Community Housing Centres\" (the others were Herne Bay and Hargrave Park in Western Sydney) that together accommodated 12,500 people at any given time.",
"The first homeless Sydney families arrived at Bradfield Park in 1947.Some had been relocated ahead of the razing of Waterloo; most had simply fallen on hard times.",
"Though they both faced a similar need to urgently provide temporary accommodation for thousands of people, and both operated from the Bradfield Park site, the Housing Commission and the Commonwealth Department of Labour and National Service had radically different approaches.",
"The Commonwealth used a wide range of former defence structures, including nissen huts and tents, to accommodate its tenants.",
"Meals were provided centrally in a mess hall; tenants shared amenity blocks.",
"The Housing Commission wanted to provide each family with its own bathroom and kitchen, even in temporary accommodation, and so only used the \"P1\" huts – timber framed, rectangular buildings measuring 5.4 by 18.2 metres.",
"Despite the enhanced privacy, the buildings were still very rudimentary: all were roofed with corrugated iron or asbestos cement; none had ceilings or internal lining.",
"Tenants shared common laundries.Conditions were squalid.",
"Bradfield Park's internal roads were unpaved.",
"Buildings built to temporarily accommodate airmen in 1939 were falling apart by 1955.Visiting the facility, MP Roger de Bryon-Faes described \"breeding grounds for disease, unhappiness, social misfits and communism, in which human beings degenerate and become frustrated and bereft of all hope, initiative and ambition ...",
"These hovels must be the most miserable place in Australia.\"",
"By contrast, actor Bryan Brown, whose family lived at Bradfield Park for 12 months after moving from Britain, recalled the time fondly.",
"\"The great thing was there was a massive amount of bush around,\" he told a journalist in 2018.Hogan observes that Sydney was also home to shanty towns during this period, in which conditions were far dirtier and more dangerous – to have closed the Community Housing Centres would have been to force more people into makeshift dwellings.From 1949 the Commission tenants were joined by the first wave of postwar European immigrants, roughly 450 people from Eastern Europe.",
"In the early days, many of the immigrants were housed in a rows of tents stretching along Lady Game Drive.",
"In 1951, the Commonwealth Department of Labour and National Service announced that the Eastern Europeans would be moved to hostels elsewhere in Sydney, to make way for 'Ten Pound Poms', participants in the Assisted Passage Migration Scheme.",
"Around 200 refused to move and sought a court order allowing them to stay.",
"When this failed, they left the site.As the Housing Commission opened its vast new estates around Campbelltown, Mount Druitt, Redfern and Riverwood, pressure on the Community Housing Centres eased.",
"The softening of rent controls from 1952 onwards assisted in reviving the private rental market.",
"The last Commission tenants left Bradfield Park in 1964.With the population of the site falling, the Commonwealth subdivided the southernmost parts of the land.",
"These became Boorabba and Guyong avenues and, beside the national park, the Presbyterian Church's new Naamaroo Conference Centre (now Uniting Venues).The Commonwealth's migrant hostel continued operating until 1971.In its final years, the British immigrants were replaced with New Australians from South America.=== Village centre ===Bradfield faced the affluent suburb of Killara across Fiddens Wharf Road.",
"School students from the two sides were strictly separated: migrant and low-income children went to Bradfield Park Public School, West Killara's kids went to Beaumont Road Public (opened 1953).",
"Nevertheless, the two shared a little row of shops, built between 1950 and 1955 on the north side of Moore Street, just south of the boundary.",
"This was a dual carriageway section of Lady Game Drive until about 1970, before through traffic was redirected one block to the north.",
"The southbound carriageway nearest the shops was repurposed as a car park.With Council support, the community funded construction of the Lady Game Community Centre at the end of Moore Street, also on the Bradfield side.",
"The centre opened in 1961.=== Disappearance of the name ===The department bulldozed what remained of the migrant hostel in 1973.Part of the site was turned over to the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO).",
"CSIRO had determined that the site, relatively distant from major roads, enjoyed sufficiently low levels of vibration to house a new National Measurement Laboratory.",
"The laboratory opened in 1978, and the remainder of the Commonwealth land was sold for private housing.The presence of migrant and low-income families had, in the eyes of residents, affected perceptions of the area; despite Dr Bradfield's considerable achievements, his surname now carried a certain stigma.",
"The West Lindfield-West Killara Progress Association waged a successful campaign for the name Bradfield to be dropped.",
"(The Progress Association had itself been named Bradfield from its foundation in 1947 until 1949.)",
"When the names and boundaries of Ku-ring-gai's suburbs were formalised in 1977, Bradfield was not among them.",
"Hogan notes that Herne Bay and Hargrave Park were also erased from the map, disappearing into Riverwood and Warwick Farm.",
"Indeed, very little documentary evidence of their existence remains in the State Archives.The Commonwealth Government continued to refer to the area as Bradfield Park as late as 1979, however, thereafter reverting to \"Lindfield\".",
"The local licensed post office, a newsagency in Moore Street, is known as Lindfield West."
