Yellowtail Dam is a dam across the Bighorn River in south central Montana in the United States. The mid-1960s era concrete arch dam serves to regulate the flow of the Bighorn for irrigation purposes and to generate hydroelectric power. The dam and its reservoir, Bighorn Lake, are owned by the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation. The project was the result of negotiations between the federal government and the Crow Nation, the tribe of Native Americans that lived on the surrounding Crow Indian Reservation, and was originally envisioned as a shared facility that would provide profits for both sides. Eventually, the land was sold to Reclamation, although much of the reservoir, which extends 72 miles (116 km) upstream into Wyoming, lies in the reservation. The dam was authorized in 1944 and groundbreaking was in 1961; it was completed in 1967 after six years of construction.Today aside from its original purposes the dam serves for recreation both above and below the structure. Regulation of the Bighorn provided by the Yellowtail Dam has transformed the lower river into one of Montana's premier trout streams. However, there has been significant controversy surrounding the allocation of water in the reservoir between Montana and Wyoming, and the ecological damage wrought on 184 miles (296 km) of river both above and below the dam. | Place | Infrastructure | Dam |

The New Progressive Party (NPP) —Spanish: Partido Nuevo Progresista (PNP)— is a political party that advocates for Puerto Rico to become a state of the United States. The party was founded in 1967 by dissidents from the Puerto Rico Republican Party that were dissatisfied with the latter after it instructed its members to not participate in a referendum held that year. The PNP is one of the two major parties in Puerto Rico with significant political strength and currently holds the seat of resident commissioner. The party is currently a minority in both the Senate and the House of Representatives, as well as being a minority in the number of mayors on the island. Politically, the party is contrasted by the Popular Democratic Party (PPD) which advocates for maintaining the current political status of Puerto Rico as that of an unincorporated territory of the United States with self-government and the smaller Puerto Rican Independence Party (PIP) which advocates for the independence of Puerto Rico. Party members are commonly called penepés, progresistas, or estadistas (\"statehooders\") and affiliate with both the Republican and Democratic Party of the United States. The use of the word \"progresistas\", or \"progressives\" is not to be confused with the usual definition of \"progressives\" or liberals in United States politics since within the NPP there are leaders and voters from throughout the socioeconomic ideological range, from conservatives to liberals, united by their support for statehood. | Agent | Organisation | PoliticalParty |

478 Tergeste, provisional designation 1901 GU, is a rare-type stony asteroid from the outer region of the asteroid belt, approximately 78 kilometers in diameter. It was discovered on 21 September 1901, by Italian astronomer Luigi Carnera at Heidelberg Observatory in southern Germany. This stony asteroid belongs to the small group of 41 bodies classified as rare L-types in the SMASS taxonomy. The asteroid orbits the Sun at a distance of 2.8–3.3 AU once every 5 years and 3 months (1,915 days). Its orbit has an eccentricity of 0.08 and an inclination of 13° with respect to the ecliptic. The body's observation arc begins with its first used observation 2 days after its official discovery date. According to the surveys carried out by the Infrared Astronomical Satellite IRAS, the Japanese Akari satellite, and NASA's Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer with its subsequent NEOWISE mission, the asteroid measures between 77.3 and 85.6 kilometers in diameter and its surface has an albedo between 0.155 and 0.191. The Collaborative Asteroid Lightcurve Link agrees with the revised WISE results and takes an albedo of 0.1914, an absolute magnitude of 7.96 and a diameter of 77.1 kilometers. In July 2005, a rotational light-curve for this asteroid was obtained by several photometrists including Laurent Bernasconi, Reiner Stoss, Petra Korlević and Raoul Behrend. The light-curve gave a rotation period of 16.104±0.001 hours with a brightness variation of 0.23 in magnitude (U=2+), superseding a period of 15±5 hours from the 1980s (U=n/a). In January 2013, another light-curve was obtained during a photometric survey by predominantly Polish and Japanese observatories. It gave a similar period of 16.105±0.001 hours with an amplitude of 0.30 magnitude (U=n/a). The minor planet is named for the northeastern Italian city of Trieste (also known by its pre-Roman name \"Tergeste\"). It is the birth place of the discoverer, who also worked there as director of the Trieste Observatory for many years. | Place | CelestialBody | Planet |
