Casimir I of Opole (;  – 13 May 1230), a member of the Piast dynasty, was a Silesian duke of Opole and Racibórz from 1211 until his death.

Early life

Casimir was the eldest child and only son of Duke Mieszko I Tanglefoot and his wife Ludmilla, probably a Bohemian princess of the Přemyslid dynasty. In 1172/73 his father had divided the Silesian lands with his elder brother Bolesław I the Tall and his nephew Duke Jarosław of Opole, and went on to rule as Duke of Racibórz in Upper Silesia.

Little is known about the early years of Casimir's life, except for his own birth, which was the pretext for an agreement between his father and Casimir II the Just, who since 1177 ruled as High Duke of Poland having deposed his elder brother Mieszko III the Old. Casimir II aimed to break the long-time alliance of Mieszko I Tanglefoot with his uncle Mieszko III the Old and in return granted to the Racibórz duke the Lesser Polish districts of Bytom, Oświęcim and Pszczyna as a gift. After the birth of Mieszko Tanglefoot's son and heir, Casimir II the Just stood as the child's godfather who was also named after him.

Mieszko I Tanglefoot significantly enlarged his territory, when after the death of his elder brother Bolesław I in 1201 he conquered the Duchy of Opole. Bolesław's son and heir, Duke Henry the Bearded had to cede the Opole lands to his uncle and also renounced any inheritance claims to Mieszko's Upper Silesian duchies. Upon the death of his uncle Miesko III the Old in 1202, Mieszko also raised claims to the Kraków throne, though he could not succeed until 1210.

Rule in Upper Silesia

Mieszko I Tanglefoot died in 1211. While Leszek the White, son of Casimir II the Just, became High Duke of Poland, Casimir I was fully prepared to assume the government in his father's Upper Silesian duchies of Opole and Racibórz. Originally, he joined the coalition of the 'Junior Dukes' Leszek the White, Konrad I of Masovia, and Władysław Odonic, who fought against the politics of the Greater Polish duke Władysław III Spindleshanks and Duke Henry the Bearded. This was expressed mainly through cooperation with the church hierarchy, especially Bishop Wawrzyniec of Wrocław. In 1215, at the Congress of Wolbórz, Casimir I gave to the church great privileges and immunity, which was the origin of the semi-independent district of Ujazd, then property of the Wrocław diocese.

Casimir's extensive cooperation with the church also provided him with security against the ambitions of his neighbors; however, this only served to protect Racibórz: the lands of Opole were in conflict with the Lower Silesian duke Henry I the Bearded; and the Lesser Polish estates of Siewierz, Bytom and Oświęcim were disputed by the Seniorate in Kraków. During his rule, Duke Casimir moved his residence to Opole and emulated the ruling model of his cousin Henry the Bearded to encourage German settlers (Ostsiedlung) in his lands. He started the process of urban locations under German town law in Leśnica (Leschnitz) in 1217 and in the episcopal lands of Ujazd bishops in 1222. Further city foundations included Biała (Zülz) and Gościęcin (Kostenthal) in 1225, as well as Olesno (Rosenberg) in 1226. The settlement process contributed measurably to the economic development of Casimir's duchy; it did not develop to a great extent, however, as in Lower Silesia.

Given the increased power of Duke Henry I the Bearded during the 1220s, Casimir I's geopolitical position became more complicated. He took the only possible decision: close cooperation with his Lower Silesian cousin. The content of the agreement is unknown, but certainly during the unsuccessful trip of Henry I the Bearded against Kraków in 1225, troops of Opole-Racibórz were with him. This fact attests to the presence of political emigrants from Lesser Poland after 1225 in Opole-Racibórz (for example, the Gryfici family). After this year, the help of emigrants, like Klement of Brzeźnica (member of the Gryficis)-who took on part of the costs of building the city walls of Opole-proved to be good for Casimir I. The alliance with Henry I the Bearded also gave the Duke of Opole-Racibórz territorial benefits: in 1227 as a result of the confusion reigning in Poland following the death of High Duke Leszek I the White, Casimir I annexed the frontier fortress of Czeladź.

Casimir I died suddenly on 13 May 1230 (although some historians put his death one year earlier) and was buried in the still unfounded Czarnowąsy (Czarnowanz) monastery, which was generously patronized by him.

Marriage and issue
Remarkably enough, the more than thirty-year-old Duke was still unmarried. It is unknown when exactly he married, but after a reconstruction of the dates of his children's births, it is concluded that this happened after the death of his father, between 1212–1220. The exact origins of Casimir I's wife Viola (d. 7 September 1251), are unknown. The 15th-century Polish chronicler Jan Długosz stated that she came from Bulgaria. They had four children:
 Mieszko II the Fat (b. ca. 1220 – d. 22 October 1246), succeeded his father as Duke of Opole-Racibórz.
 Władysław (b. 1225 – d. 27 August/13 September? 1282), Duke of Opole-Racibórz from 1246.
 Wenzeslawa (b. ca. 1226/28? – d. 1 July aft. 1230?), a nun in Czarnowąsy.
 Euphrosyne (b. 1228/30 – d. 4 November 1292), married firstly in 1257 to Duke Casimir I of Kuyavia and secondly in 1275 to Duke Mestwin II of Pomerania (they were divorced bef. August 1288).

After Casimir I's death, Henry I the Bearded assumed the regency and formal guardianship of his minor sons, while his widow Viola took over direct tutelage of them.

Roger Gould is an American writer, psychiatrist and authority on adult psychological development.

In his book Transformations, Gould presents his view that adult psychological development consists of the "dismantling of the illusions of safety developed in childhood". Gould’s theory suggests that these illusions are confronted in a time-sensitive sequence as one progresses through the life-cycle. His research was used extensively in Passages, by Gail Sheehy.

Gould has pioneered the use of computer-assisted and web-based therapy. He was honored by The Smithsonian Institution as a pioneer in the field of computer-assisted therapy. In 2001, Gould’s method of computer-assisted therapy was found to be about as effective as traditional therapy.

Gould is also the founder of Shrink Yourself, an online, weight-loss program that uses his web-based therapy techniques to eliminate emotional eating, binge eating, overeating and other forms of excessive, compulsive or uncontrolled eating. In 2007, he published a second book, Shrink Yourself: Break Free from Emotional Eating Forever, based on the Shrink Yourself online program. In both the book and online program, Gould suggests that the powerlessness people feel over their cravings to eat when they are emotionally upset is a cover-up for a deeper sense of powerlessness in areas, or "layers", of their lives not directly connected to eating. By examining one’s sense of powerlessness in the areas identified, Gould claims one can end emotional eating and other form of uncontrolled eating.

The following is a list and description of former and unbuilt Quebec autoroutes.

Former Autoroutes

Autoroute 51

Autoroute 55 south of Autoroute 20 to Route 116 was co-designated Autoroute 51 until 1982. By 1983, official documents had removed the Autoroute 51 designation from its section of Autoroute 55. In the 1970s, there were plans to extend Autoroute 51 north of Autoroute 20 to a proposed easterly extension of Autoroute 30 near Yamaska.

Autoroute 430

Autoroute 430 was proposed to connect Candiac to Sainte-Julie. The section between Candiac and Boucherville was constructed but remained unsigned, instead being signed as part of Route 132 with a  concurrency with Autoroute 15 and a  concurrency with Autoroute 20.

Initially, Highway 20 was to pass through Downtown Montreal along present-day Route 136 (Autoroute Ville-Marie) corridor, join Autoroute 25, and cross the St. Lawrence River via the Louis-Hippolyte Lafontaine Bridge–Tunnel. Autoroute 20 was to pass temporarily on the south shore (the overlap with Route 132), and once the initial route was constructed, the south shore section would be renumbered to Autoroute 430. The Autoroute Ville-Marie extension was cancelled and Autoroute 20 is permanently routed on the south shore, resulting in the Autoroute 430 designation being cancelled. The exit numbers on Autoroute 20 were adjusted in 2012.

The northern part of Autoroute 430 between the freeway section of Route 132 in Boucherville and Autoroute 30 in Sainte-Julie was not constructed.

Autoroute 540 (Vaudreuil-Dorion)

The Vaudreuil-Dorion segment of Autoroute 540 was a short connection between Autoroute 20 and Autoroute 40. It became part of Autoroute 30 in when its extension was completed in December 2012.

Autoroute 550

Autoroute 550 would have served as a bypass of Gatineau and would have been a link across the Ottawa River to Highway 416 in the west end of Ottawa. It also would have alleviated traffic along Autoroute 50 and Autoroute 5 in Gatineau, as well as traffic along Highway 417 and in downtown Ottawa. In 1996, the Quebec Ministry of Transportation stated in 1996 that there was no need for a Gatineau bypass, but it is keeping the corridor for a possible future boulevard or freeway in partnership with the National Capital Commission.

In 2006, the National Capital Capital Commission began a study about a new inter-provincial bridge between Ottawa and Gatineau; however, the focus is located east of downtown Ottawa and the Britannia-Deschênes Corridor was not included as part of the study.

Unbuilt Autoroutes

Autoroute 6

Proposed in the 1960s, Autoroute 6 was planned to run from Autoroute 15 in La Prairie to Farnham, also intersecting Autoroute 30 and Autoroute 35; it would have paralleled Route 104. The western half of the route was cancelled by the mid-1970s while the rest of the route was abandoned a few years later. Reconstruction of Autoroute 15 through La Prairie in the mid-2000s removed a grassy median at km 49 where ramps were to be built for a directional T-interchange to connect with Autoroute 6.

Autoroute 9

Proposed in the 1960s and early 1970s, Autoroute 9 was planned to run from Autoroute 40 in Pointe-Fortune to Autoroute 50 in Lachute, providing a fixed crossing over the Ottawa River. Evidence of the proposed Autoroute 9 can be found in the form of a wide median on Autoroute 40 (to accommodate a Y-interchange) just east of Exit 1 in Pointe-Fortune.

Autoroute 13

Portion only:  There was a proposal to extend Autoroute 13 from Autoroute 640 in Boisbriand to Autoroute 50 near Mirabel Airport. Since Mirabel Airport ceased passenger operations in 2004, the A-13 extension was de-prioritised.

Autoroute 15

Portion only:  There was a fully funded proposal to bypass the Autoroute 15 concurrency along Autoroute 40 (known as Autoroute Métropolitaine or "the Met" between the two segments of Autoroute 15) by diverging from its present alignment south of the Henri-Bourassa/Sauve exit to connect directly from the North into the Decarie interchange.

Autoroute 16

Reserved for autoroute conversion of Boulevard Wilfrid-Laurier (Route 112 and Route 116).

Autoroute 18

In the 1970s, Autoroute 18 was proposed to extend east from Autoroute 55 through Victoriaville toward Autoroute 65 (also unbuilt) in Plessisville.

Autoroute 20

Portions only:  Autoroute 20 has two unbuilt sections, one bypassing Dorion and another the continuation of the present Route 136, joining Autoroute 25 north of the tunnel.

The proposed alignment of the Dorion bypass would have begun at present-Autoroute 30 (formerly Autoroute 540), crossed the Ottawa River at the Hydro transmission wire crossing, and joined the current route at Boulevard Don-Quichotte. Current plans are to move the proposed highway slightly north between the eastern bridge entrance to the town of Dorion and the last junction at Boulevard Harwood (Route 342).

The section east of the current Ville-Marie tunnel was supposed to be designated Autoroute 20 but was designated as Autoroute 720 until 2021 where it was redesignated to Route 136.  The highway is currently routed from the Turcot interchange along Autoroute 15, over the Champlain Bridge, and then east on Route 132 towards Autoroute 25 at the southern end of the tunnel.

Autoroute 35

Portions only: Autoroute 35 is still incomplete. When the highway was first built in the 1960s, it ended in Iberville at the northern end of Route 133 at the intersection of rue Lefort.  Around 2009, it was announced that the Autoroute would be completed by 2017 where the process involved four phases with the first two completed in 2014.  Autoroute 35 is now extended from the previous terminus in Iberville to Route 133 at Saint-Sébastien.  The last two phases involve continuing the highway southeast of the current terminus to Phillipsburg, construction of an interchange on Route 133 at Phillipsburg, and following Route 133 to Interstate 89 at the Vermont border. In 2019, the government announced the construction of the last phases will be completed for 2023.

Autoroute 40

Two sections of Autoroute 40 were not part of the original plans. The original intention was to bypass Trois-Rivières to the north, while the existing Autoroute 40 through downtown would have been Autoroute 755, avoiding its present concurrency with Autoroute 55. In addition, a different route was originally planned around Sainte-Foy (now in the west end of Quebec City) south of Jean Lesage International Airport, while the existing  segment of Autoroute 40 between Sainte-Augustin and Autoroute 73 would have been the western end of Autoroute 440. Both rights-of-way are still maintained.

Autoroute 50

Portions only: Originally, the portion of Route 158 between Saint-Esprit and Joliette was planned to be Autoroute 50, however, these plans were later cancelled. A petition to upgrade the existing route to its formerly planned freeway status began circulating in 2014.

Autoroute 65

Autoroute 65 was proposed in the 1970s and would have linked Thetford Mines to Autoroute 20 at Villeroy. It may have been planned as far south as an easterly extension of Autoroute 10 near Lambton.

Autoroute 415

Autoroute 415 had been proposed as the number of a planned autoroute in Montreal. This road was proposed in 1960, and would have connected Autoroute 15 (the Décarie Autoroute) at Monkland Avenue to Autoroute 19 at Rachel Street (on a connection between the present Autoroute 19 and the Jacques Cartier Bridge that was never built).

In its 1960 master highway plan, the Montreal Metropolitan Committee proposed a new  long autoroute along the city's east–west street grid at the northern edge of downtown. The six-lane autoroute was forecast to handle as many as 4,500 vehicles per hour during weekday peak periods. Beginning at the Decarie Autoroute at Monkland Avenue in the Notre-Dame-de-Grâce section of the city (at the current EXIT 66 on Autoroute 15), the Mount Royal Autoroute was to extend in a northeastern direction through Westmount underneath Mount Royal Park before emerging above ground at Rachel Street connecting to the unbuilt Autoroute 19 section of what is now Papineau Avenue.

Autoroute 640

Portion only:  The initial plan for Autoroute 640 was to continue west from Oka, crossing Lac des Deux Montagnes, to Autoroute 40 in Vaudreuil-Dorion, potentially passing through Oka National Park and Aboriginal lands. The political sensitivity involved with constructing a freeway through a protected area and the 1990 land dispute regarding a golf course expansion have decreased the likelihood of the extension.

Autoroute 755

Autoroute 755 is in service but is currently part of Autoroute 40. Originally, Autoroute 40 was to avoid the downtown area of Trois-Rivières and to pass north of its current alignment, continuing east from the northern Autoroute 40 / Autoroute 55 interchange  to a tight curve near Rue Courteau. The present alignment of Autoroute 40 in the downtown area would have been designated as Autoroute 755.

It existed briefly in the mid-1980s under the name of Autoroute de Francheville, but was incorporated into Autoroute 40 when the construction of the original route was suspended.

New Heys Comprehensive School or New Heys Community College was an English comprehensive school in Liverpool specialising within Business.

The school worked closely with businesses such as the New Mersey Retail Park, Jaguar and Scottish Power to provide their children with a taste of business life.

Merger
It was announced in early 2009, that New Heys Comprehensive would move to St Benedicts' Catholic College and form a new, 'Business and Faith Academy' on the Garston site, leaving the original New Heys to be rebuilt to form a housing development. This comes as one of the major changes that will happen in and around 2011 to 2017.

From around November/December 2013 New Heys School was demolished to make way for Housing and work started in 2014

The school is now known as The Academy of St Nicholas.

"So Human" is a song by British rapper Lady Sovereign. The song was the second single from her second album Jigsaw. The single was released on  and reached 38 on the UK Singles Chart. The song was written by Louise Harman (a.k.a. Lady Sovereign), Gabriel Olegavich, Dr. Luke, Benny Blanco and Robert Smith. The song contains heavy sampling of the 1985 single "Close to Me" by English rock band the Cure, of whom Smith is the lead vocalist, as well as some of its lyrics.

Critical response

Digital Spy gave the song 4 out of 5 stars and a very positive review, stating "it's a perky urban pop tune about having bad days and not beating yourself up about it. Sovereign remains as straight-talking and listenable as ever - "I need a bag of green to make this go away," she raps at one point - making this a welcome reminder of her talents".

Orange UK gave the song 4 out of 5 stars and welcomed Lady Sovereign back onto the music scene, saying "'So Human' sees Sovereign applying her no-nonsense straight-talking wit to one of British pop's most prized possessions. The result is a perky, poppy urban track that just about sidesteps novelty territory and is all the better for it. Welcome home m'Lady".

BBC Radio 1's Chart Blog commented on both the video and the song:
The video goes perfectly with this song; it's sort of comfortingly cheap, with slightly-crap-but-carried-off-well "special effects" like the magazine covers and it fits the lyrics (which, admittedly, I didn't actually realise were about maintaining your human side whilst famous until I watched that so top marks for illustrative education there) and it's generally very good.

The song itself, again, is very good. The use of the sample from the theme from The Smoking Room 'Close To Me' by The Cure is well done; although 'Close To Me' is a desperately heartbreaking (and desperately desperate) song, its beat has always been wonderfully gentle and reassuring, bumbling along in an intimate, gentle way like an audiohug. Which is perfect for a song essentially all about having a really rubbish time of it and losing your temper and getting a bit "tired and emotional" and then having a big cry and feeling better.

Sov looks great in the video, she sounds great on the track, I really like both. It's all really good.

Maybe it's me being hard to please, though but a bit of me sinks when I see this; yes, it works really well and hopefully it'll be successful but as good as this all is, there's a lot of me that wishes Lady Sovereign wouldn't have to do something as, essentially, cheap as this to make it work; seeing artists constrained by budget is never particularly satisfying, even when it works out and I'd rather see personality pieces like 'I Got U Dancin' given the treatment they deserve than this being released because it's doable with the resources available, in the end.

BBC gave the song an overall 4 stars out of 5.

Chart performance
The song debuted on the UK Singles Chart one week before the full release at 38, on the next week's chart it stayed at 38 making it two weeks in the top 40.

The song debuted at number 82 on the Australian ARIA Singles Chart after receiving a considerable amount of airplay. The song went on to peak at number 36. It spent a total of 4 weeks within the top 50, compared to "Love Me or Hate Me" which spent only one week within the top 50.

Music video

The video starts off with Sovereign standing in front of a white wall with a splash of yellow paint on it. Then it goes to Sovereign on the red carpet being interviewed, after the paparazzi take many pictures of her a model walks on and tries to steal the spotlight so she trips her over. She then steals a camera of the paparazzi and throws it away from him. She then appears on two magazine covers one called "Crazed" and another called "Any Other Magazine". She then appears on a couch with a psychiatrist sitting next to her and she takes notes on everything Sovereign says. the psychiatrist eventually breaks down in tears and hugs Sovereign. She then appears on two new magazines one called "Vague" and the other called "Spender". She then talks to a guy who is viewing art at a gallery and then she walks off because he bores her. When she walks off she lets her friends sneak in and they have a party. She then ends it by going everywhere she has already been in the video and the person next to her mimes the words off the song.

The Master of Science in Information Systems (MSIS), the Master of Science in Management Information Systems (MSMIS) and Masters in Management Information Systems (MMIS) are specialized master's degree programs usually offered in a university's College of Business and in integrated Information Science and Technology colleges. The MSIS degree is designed for those managing design and development information technology, especially the information systems development process.

The MSIS degree is thought to be functionally equivalent to a Master of Information Systems/Technology Management; however, the two are distinguishable in that the latter has much more equitable composition of information science/systems, and business/management. MSMIS and MMIS degrees are recognized by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB) and the Accreditation Council for Business Schools and Programs (ACBSP).

A joint committee of Association for Information Systems (AIS) and Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) members developed a model curriculum for the MSIS in 2006.

Joseph-Nestor Duguay (March 15, 1846 – March 17, 1907) was a businessman and political figure in Quebec. He represented Yamaska in the Legislative Assembly of Quebec from 1874 to 1875 as a Conservative.

He was born in Baie-du-Febvre, Canada East, the son of Joseph Duguay and Anne-Scholastique-Olive Beauchemin, and was educated at the Collège de Nicolet. Duguay was one of the pioneers of the dairy industry in the Yamaska region and owned a number of cheese-making facilities. He was married three times: to Marie-Éméline Davis in 1866, then to Marie-Nina Davis, his first wife's sister, in 1877 and finally to Émiline Lacerte in 1905. Duguay was mayor of Saint-Zéphirin-de-Courval from 1875 to 1876. He ran unsuccessfully for reelection to the Quebec assembly in 1890. Duguay died at Baie-du-Febvre at the age of 61.

Walter Vernon "Vern" Hatton (born January 13, 1936) is an American basketball player who won a national championship as a player at the University of Kentucky and played professionally in the National Basketball Association.

Kentucky career
Hatton played under Kentucky coach Adolph Rupp. He is considered a Kentucky basketball legend largely due to a memorable half-court shot he made to force a third overtime in a victory over Temple University. He was voted an honorable mention All-American his senior year and scored 30 points to lead the Kentucky Wildcats over Elgin Baylor-led Seattle in winning the 1958 NCAA men's basketball championship. Hatton was named a member of the NCAA All-Tournament team for 1958 along with Baylor, Johnny Cox, and Guy Rodgers. Hatton said of playing for Rupp, "It takes you six to eight years to get over playing for Adolph Rupp, but once you get over it, you get to like him."

Professional career

He was drafted 9th overall in the 1958 NBA draft by the Cincinnati Royals. He played four years in the NBA, mainly for the Philadelphia Warriors.

Personal life
Hatton is married with three sons and is a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

Morcar (or Morkere) () (died 1015) was a thane (minister) of King Æthelred the Unready. He was given lands in Derbyshire in 1009, including Weston-on-Trent, Crich, and Smalley by King Æthelred in 1011 and 1012. He was also given the freedom from the three common burdens. He and his brother were executed in 1015. Morcar's brother's wife was later married to King Edmund Ironside.

Biography
Morcar was the son of Earngrim, according to John of Worcester, and his brother was Sigeferth. He was mentioned in the will of Wulfric Spot, brother of Ælfhelm and son of Wulfrun. In 1004, when Wulfric died, he made Morcar a major beneficiary, along with Burton Abbey and Ælfhelm.

Morcar was a king's thegn (Latin minister) in 1009 when King Æthelred the Unready issued a charter, in which he gave lands to his minister Morcar. The charter shows that he would control the crossings of the River Trent at Weston-on-Trent, Wilne, and King's Mills in Leicestershire. Although not mentioned explicitly, the land described at Weston on Trent included ownership of what is now the villages of Shardlow and Aston-on-Trent.

The river crossings at Weston, King's Mill, and Wilne control one of the main routes for travelers moving up or down England, as this river was a boundary within Mercia. The Domesday book also used the river as a boundary between counties later that century.

The land that Morcar received was listed as eight hides at Weston upon Trent and a hide each at Morley, Smalley, Ingleby, Crich, and Kidsley. This land was given to Morcar, the King's chief minister, and he was given rights that were normally reserved for the King alone. He was given the responsibility for all types of justice and exemption from the Trinoda necessitas. The threefold tax of Trinoda necessitas usually required an obligation on the land to surrender soldiers, to repair fortifications, and to repair bridges. Morcar alone could decide a fate of life or death without the need of the authority of the King or his sheriff. Morcar was given further lands in Derbyshire. In 1011, he was given five hides at what was possibly Mickleover and in 1012, two more at Eckington.

Death
These land grants again came under the control of King Æthelred when Morcar and his brother, Sigeferth, were murdered by Eadric in 1015. Williams speculates that Morcar may have been involved in swinging support in Northumbria behind Sweyn Forkbeard, who was King of Denmark.

King Æthelred seized both Morcar's and Sigeferth's lands and imprisoned Sigeferth's widow, who was called Ealdgyth. King Edmund Ironside then freed the widow and married her. Edmund redistributed some of the lands that had previously belonged to Sigeferth.

Datooga (also Datog, Datoga, Taturu, Mang'ati, Tatoga or Tatog) is a Nilotic language or dialect cluster of the Southern Nilotic group. It is spoken by the Datooga people of the Great Rift Valley of Tanzania. The Sukuma name Taturu is also sometimes used in English; the Swahili name Mang'ati comes from Maasai, where it means "enemy". However, it is not considered offensive to the Datooga, as there is a degree of pride in being the historic enemy of the Maasai, and Mang'ati has become the standard name for the group in Swahili. In addition, numerous tribal and dialectal names may be found for the people or language as a whole.

The Datooga have been claimed to be one of the least educated peoples in Tanzania, and there is almost no literacy in the language; literacy in Swahili has been reported to be very low in some communities. However, the Barabaiga and Gisamjanga dialects have been written, and some work is being done on Asimjeeg.

Varieties
Dialect diversity is great enough to make mutual intelligibility difficult, and Blench (2000) lists East Datooga and West Datooga as distinct languages. Dialects are often assumed to correspond to the seven Datooga tribes, but the speech of the Gisamjanga (Kisamajeng, Gisamjang) and the Barabaig, for example, are very close, and can be considered a single dialect. The other dialects, with alternate spellings, are Bajuta, Barabayiiga (Barabaig, Barabayga, Barabaik, Barbaig), Asimjeeg (Tsimajeega, Isimijeega), Rootigaanga (Rotigenga, Rotigeenga), Buraadiiga (Buradiga, Bureadiga), Bianjiida (Biyanjiida, Utatu).

A 1997 dialect survey includes data from four Datooga varieties:
Bianjida (the most divergent)
Gisamjanga (including Bajuta)
Barabaiga
Buradiga
Asimjeeg
Gidang'oodiga (a special blacksmith group)

The suffixes -da (singular) and -ga (plural) on these names and many Datooga nouns are equivalent to English the .

Grammar
Datooga has been strongly influenced by South Cushitic languages previously spoken in the area where Datooga has taken over. In turn, Datooga has strongly influenced the Iraqw language which has occupied much former Datooga territory and has absorbed Datooga through intermarriage; for example, the Iraqw use Datooga vocabulary for poetic language.

Some varieties of Datooga have a verb-initial word order, but the relative order of subject and object reflects pragmatic concerns. Grammatical case in the Gisamjanga variety is marked by tone in a marked nominative system. Numbers follow nouns, and question words come at the end of a clause. The numeral system is vigesimal, but domestic animals are counted in pairs, so that the word used for 'five' when counting other objects means 'ten' when referring to goats or cattle.

Phonology

A retroflex /ɭ/ may also be present in some dialects. /q/ may have different realizations, being heard as [ɢ χ ʁ] in various positions.

Plosives are devoiced word-finally and when adjacent to another plosive or a fricative. Datooga  is underlyingly  (or equivalently ); the voiceless [t] is longer than a voiced [d]. There is also no distinction between [h] and a zero onset to a syllable.

Sounds /i ɛ a u/ may also be heard as [ɪ æ ɑ ʊ] in free variation.

Final vowels are often devoiced in Gisamjanga and Barabaig, as may be the consonants which proceed them, which is why Barabayiiga for example is commonly transcribed as Barabaik.

The Anglican Church of SS Peter & Paul, Weston in Gordano, Somerset, England, has been designated as a Grade I listed building.

The tower and porch were built around 1300, while the rest of the building is from the 15th century, with the work being funded by Sir Richard Percivale who died in 1483 and whose tomb is in the north isle of the nave.

It has a four-bay nave, chancel and south chapel. The four stage tower is at the southern end of the church.

The interior of the church includes the original Norman font and a stone pulpit from the 13th century, there is also a Jacobean pulpit on the north side.  The misericords have been dated as coming from the 14th century, although some suggest they may be 12th and transferred from Portbury Priory.

The parish is part of the benefice of East Clevedon with Clapton in Gordano, Walton Clevedon, Walton in Gordano and Weston in Gordano within the Portishead deanery.

Leeds City bus station serves the city of Leeds, England. Owned and managed by West Yorkshire Metro, it is situated between the Quarry Hill and Leeds Kirkgate Markets areas of Leeds city centre. The National Express Dyer Street Coach Station adjoins the bus station.

History

The bus station was opened on 31 August 1938 as Leeds Central bus station. It was built at the same time and in the same style as the Quarry Hill flats. The original bus station was used as the back-drop for the opening credits of Yorkshire Television sitcom Queenie's Castle.

The station was rebuilt reopening on 30 September 1963 with four curved platforms. In 1990, Vicar Lane bus station closed and West Yorkshire Road Car Company buses began using the main bus station. It was again rebuilt, being officially reopened on 25 March 1996 when National Express relocated to the site. Wellington Street coach station was closed when the new station opened.

The bus station is 800 metres away from Leeds railway station meaning there is no central transport hub in Leeds. To answer this a small bus interchange was constructed at the railway station in 2005 and linked to the bus station by a FreeCityBus service, which was replaced by the LeedsCityBus service in April 2011.

Architecture
The building replaced a series of steel and concrete bus shelters. In line with most new bus stations in West Yorkshire, Leeds City is fully enclosed. The building is a single-storey brick-built structure with a glass roof that runs the full length of the bus station, allowing the maximum use of natural light. There are two concourses within the station, the bus concourse is situated on the eastern side of the building with 25 bays, while the National Express concourse is situated on the western side with nine bays.

Services
Arriva Yorkshire is the main service user of the bus station with services 110, 140, 140A, 141, 164, 200, 201, 202, 203, 229, 254, 255. These services cover areas including Huddersfield, Wakefield, Dewsbury and Batley

First West Yorkshire is the secondary user with services from First Leeds 6, 8, 27, 28, 33, 34, 62 and X84 covering areas including Headingley, Guiseley , Kirkstall and Otley

Along with this First Bradford have their intercity services 72 and X6 in the bus station these services cover Armley, Bramley, Pudsey and Thornbury

First Halifax terminate their 508 service here which covers Farsley, Thornbury and Odsal

Harrogate Bus Company and Keighley Bus Company, which are both subsidiaries of Transdev also use the bus station for their intercity services this being Keighley to Leeds 60 (Aireline) for Keighley Bus Company which covers Kirkstall, Shipley and Saltaire

For The Harrogate Bus Company these are the 7 which covers Wetherby, Boston Spa and Seacroft and 36 which covers Pannal, Harewood and Moortown

Along with this there are other smaller operators who use the station these are Station Coaches, Connexions Buses, Dalesbus and Yorkshire Buses

Yorkshire Coastliner also run long distance coastal services to Scarborough via Tadcaster, York and Malton from the bus station

The Flyer service A1 runs to Leeds Bradford Airport.

Megabus also run services with a variety of national destinations from Stand 1

National Express operates services from the western concourse to destinations across the country including London , Birmingham, Sheffield , Manchester and more

Dalhalvaig () is a small crofting village, located in the right bank of the River Halladale in the Scottish council area of Highland.

Dalhalvaig was originally in the parish of Reay, which itself was partly in the county of Caithness and partly in the county of Sutherland. However, in 1891 the parish boundaries changed so that the portion of the parish of Reay that was in Sutherland was disjointed and became part of the parish of Farr in Sutherland and therefore Dalhalvaig is today situated in the parish of Farr, county of Sutherland.

The A897 road runs past the village, with the villages of Croick, Trantlemore and Trantlebeg in the south, and the Melvich to the north.

Thomas Jennison Parmley (November 2, 1897 – September 15, 1997) was an American physics professor at the University of Utah. He served as chairman of the UofU's physics department from 1957 to 1963.

Parmley was born in Scofield, Utah to William and Mary Veal Parmley. His father was killed in the Scofield Mine disaster in that town in 1900. In 1921, he received his bachelor's degree from the University of Utah where he was a founding member of the Sigma Pi fraternity chapter.  While still being an undergraduate, he worked as a chemist for the U.S. Smeltering Company.  In 1923 he married LaVern W. Parmley who served as general president of the Primary of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church). He then earned his Ph.D. from Cornell University in 1927.  Prior to joining the faculty of the University of Utah, Parmley was involved in cyclotron research at the University of California, Berkeley. While there he was the lead author of the paper "The Radioactives of some high-mass isotopes of Cobalt"

Parmley was a member of the LDS Church. He served for 13 years on the General Board of the Deseret Sunday School Union.

Parmley was involved with the Atomic Energy Commission and the National Bureau of Standards.  He was a member of the American Institute of Physics.

One of the main physics lecture halls at the University of Utah is named after him as is a scholarship. Parmley's son William became a general authority in the LDS Church.

Although Parmley retired from formal teaching in 1980, his zeal for learning and expanding the minds of young people persisted though his whole life. He appreciated science, learning, and discovery, but his true passion was for teaching and helping young students experience the excitement of learning and discovery. If you asked him, assuredly he would list his greatest accomplishments as the lives of his children and accomplishments of his students. His influence continues today in those who knew his kindness, generosity, faith and his amazing enthusiasm for life and learning.

In 1996 he was name the university's Centennial Professor.

Milwaukee Home and Fine Living was a glossy full-color magazine. It was launched in 2004. During the initial years it was published on a bimonthly basis. Journal Communications, Inc. acquired the magazine from Trails Media Group in February 2007 and switched its frequency to monthly.

Articles cover local residential design trends, with a focus on local professional talent in the industry. The magazine claimed circulation of 19,500 copies distributed in Southeastern Wisconsin. The editor was Robert Bundy. The magazine was closed in 2010.

In 2004 the magazine won two major national FOLIO awards: a gold Eddie for editorial Regional Shelter coverage, and a silver Ozzie for Best Design of a New Magazine.

Milwaukee Home and Fine Living reported on philosophies and trends that are driving the residential design movements in Greater Milwaukee. This might have included a home that exemplifies a particular decorating or architectural style, or a profile of a local shop owner, artisan or designer. To be considered, all products, homes, gardens, experts and artisans, etc., featured in the magazine must have had a local connection or be available locally.

Milwaukee Home and Fine Living published a free monthly e-newsletter, featuring a sneak peek of the upcoming issue, editors' picks of local home and fine living events, recipes from some of the area's restaurants, and performing arts previews.
