The lesser stripetail scorpion, Hoffmannius or Vaejovis coahuilae, is a small (35-55mm) species of scorpion found in the southwestern United States. It is a member of the \"eusthenura\" group of Vaejovis (which also includes the American species V. spinigerus, V. waueri, V. globosus, V.confusus, and V. puritanus). It is generally found in Mexico and the U.S. states of Arizona, New Mexico and Texas. It lives in a variety of habitats and elevations, from desert flats to rolling grasslands to rocky slopes in mountains to about 7,000 feet (2,100 m) or more. Because V. coahuilae is primarily a burrowing species, they are most easily found by using a black light and can be found under rocks and debris. The sting is very painful. Sensitivity and pain can last from 15 to 30 minutes or occasionally longer, with no real medical side effects. Minor swelling and edema can be experienced during that time period depending on severity of sting. This scorpion uses a flick as its mode of defense, but they will occasionally stand their ground with a defensive posture. Males grow to about 35 millimetres (1.4 in). Females grow 40–45 millimetres (1.6–1.8 in), but rarely as large as 55 millimetres (2.2 in). | Species | Animal | Arachnid |

Mangos began his career at Ferris State University, and played regularly at NCAA level for the four years he was there. After more than 150 appearances for his university, Mangos signed for the Fresno Falcons at ECHL level and in his first season proved to be an astute acquisition, playing in more than 50 games, and contributing 20 points to the team cause. His standard of play was recognised, and he was snapped up to sign for the Texas Wildcatters towards the end of the 2004/05 season. After ten appearances for the Wildcatters, Mangos decided to move during the off-season. As he had already proven his quality at ECHL standard, he was signed by the Victoria Salmon Kings who were playing in the ECHL for just their second season. Mangos was a cornerstone of the team, and played 72 regular season games, although the Salmon Kings failed to make the post-season. In the summer of 2006, Mangos made the decision to ply his trade in Europe and signed to play for the Manchester Phoenix, a British team playing in the EIHL. In his first season playing British ice hockey, Mangos adapted well and was one of the team's most reliable players at both ends of the ice, totalling more than 40 points in 60 games through his excellent puck control and range of passing. Mangos was re-signed for the 2007/08 season by player/coach Tony Hand, and was joined by fellow ex-Fresno Falcons players Luke Stauffacher and Brian Passmore. He has also been named alternate captain along with Jeff MacMillan. Despite a second strong season in Manchester, Mangos was released at the end of the season as part of a complete rebuilding of the Phoenix squad. In September 2008, Mangos returned to North America to sign for the Bossier-Shreveport Mudbugs of the Central Hockey League | Agent | WinterSportPlayer | IceHockeyPlayer |

Juana Bormann (or Johana Borman) (10 September 1893 – 13 December 1945) was a prison guard at several Nazi concentration camps, and was executed as a war criminal at Hamelin after a trial in 1945. At her trial, Bormann said she had joined the Auxiliary SS in 1938 \"to earn more money\". She first served at the Lichtenburg concentration camp, in Lichtenburg, Saxony under SS Oberaufseherin Jane Bernigau with 49 other SS women. In 1939, she was assigned to oversee a work crew at the new Ravensbrück women's camp near Berlin. In March 1942, Bormann was one of a handful of women selected for guard duty at Auschwitz in Poland. Short in stature, she was known for her cruelty. Victims called her \"Wiesel\" and \"the woman with the dogs.\" In October 1942, Bormann went to Auschwitz-Birkenau as an Aufseherin. Her supervisors included Maria Mandel, Margot Drexler (Drechsel, Dreschel), and Irma Grese. Juana was eventually moved to Budy, a nearby subcamp where she continued her abuse on the prisoners. In 1944, as German losses mounted, Bormann was transferred to the auxiliary camp at Hindenburg (now called Zabrze, Poland) in Silesia. In January 1945, she returned to Ravensbrück. In March she arrived at her last post, Bergen-Belsen, near Celle, where she served under Josef Kramer, Irma Grese and Elisabeth Volkenrath (all of whom had served with her in Birkenau.) On 15 April 1945, the British army took Bergen-Belsen, finding over 10,000 corpses and 60,000 survivors. The liberators forced all SS personnel to carry the dead. Bormann was later incarcerated and interrogated by the military, then prosecuted at the Belsen Trial, which lasted from 17 September 1945 to 17 November 1945. The court heard testimony relating to murders she had committed at Auschwitz and Belsen, sometimes unleashing her \"big bad wolfhound\" German shepherd on helpless prisoners.

The Atlas dwarf lizard (Atlantolacerta andreanskyi) is the only species of genus Atlantolacerta in the wall lizard family, Lacertidae. It is endemic to Morocco, where it is restricted to High Atlas Mountain range. It is also found from 2,400 up to 3,800 m above sea level. Although this species is generally considered to be rare, animals are often well hidden in vegetation and may occur at higher densities than was first assumed. They can be very common in favourable conditions and are found in alpine meadows, scree, amongst boulders, and in areas of thorn cushion vegetation and thickets. They have long hibernation periods. The females lay three clutches of between one and three eggs per year. The species does not appear to be threatened, but it does occur in readily accessible areas, most especially by hikers. | Species | Animal | Reptile |

Keane are an English rock band from Battle, East Sussex, formed in 1995. The group currently comprises Tim Rice-Oxley (piano, synthesisers, backing vocals), Richard Hughes (drums, percussion, backing vocals), Jesse Quin (bass guitar, acoustic/electric guitar, backing vocals) and Tom Chaplin (lead vocals, acoustic/electric guitar). Their original line-up included founder and guitarist Dominic Scott, who left in 2001. Keane achieved mainstream, international success with the release of their debut album, Hopes and Fears, in 2004. Topping the UK charts, the album won the 2005 Brit Award for Best British Album and was the second best-selling British album of 2004. Their second album, Under the Iron Sea, released in 2006, topped the UK album charts and debuting at number four on the US Billboard 200. Their third album, Perfect Symmetry, was released in October 2008. In May 2008, both Hopes and Fears (number 13) and Under the Iron Sea (number 8) were voted by readers of Q magazine as among the best British albums ever, with Keane, The Beatles, Oasis and Radiohead the only artists having two albums in the top 20. In 2009, Hopes and Fears was listed as the ninth best-selling album of the 2000s decade in the UK. Their EP, Night Train, was released in May 2010. Their fourth studio album, Strangeland, was released in May 2012, and again peaked at number one on the UK Albums Chart. Keane are known for using a piano (or a synth) as the lead instrument instead of guitars, differentiating them from most other rock bands. The inclusion of a distorted piano effect in 2006 and various synthesisers were a common feature in their music that back then combined the piano rock sound used during their first album and the more electronic sound which developed on the second and third albums. Since the start of their career, the band have sold over 10 million albums worldwide. | Agent | Group | Band |

Abies firma, the momi fir, is a species of fir native to central and southern Japan, growing at low to moderate altitudes of 50–1600 m. Abies firma is a medium-sized to large evergreen coniferous tree growing to 50 metres (160 ft) tall and 2 metres (6 ft 7 in) in trunk diameter, with a broad conical crown of straight branches rising at an angle of about 20° above horizontal. The bark is scaly grey-brown, with resin blisters on young trees. The shoots are grooved, buff to grey-brown, glabrous or finely pubescent. The leaves (\"needles\") are flattened, 2–5 centimetres (0.79–1.97 in) long and 2–4 millimetres (0.079–0.157 in) broad, spread at nearly right angles from the shoot; the apex is sharp, bifid (double-pointed) on the leaves of young trees, single-pointed on mature trees. They are bright green above, and greyish-green below with two broad stomatal bands. The cones are 7–15 centimetres (2.8–5.9 in) long by 3–5 centimetres (1.2–2.0 in) wide, green maturing yellow-brown, tapering to a 2–3 centimetres (0.79–1.18 in) broad bluntly rounded apex. The scale bracts are exserted 3–6 millimetres (0.12–0.24 in), triangular. The seeds are 7–9 millimetres (0.28–0.35 in) long with a wedge-shaped wing 1.5 centimetres (0.59 in) long, are released after the cones disintegrate at maturity in October. Momi fir is sometimes, but not commonly, used as an ornamental tree, particularly in warm temperate regions with hot, humid summers such as the southeastern United States. | Species | Plant | Conifer |
Potamonautes perlatus, the Cape river crab is a species of crab in the family Potamonautidae. Potamonautes perlatus is found in South Africa, particularly in the Cape Province. There are unconfirmed reports that it occurs in parts of Namibia. Its main habitat is rivers, but it does occur widely in farm dams, where it often is regarded as a pest, with a propensity for digging tunnels in earth dams. It is doubtful that this is a serious problem in professionally engineered dams, but there may be occasional damage to small farming earthworks. Possibly because of its being primarily a river crab, when it lives in farm dams without direct connection to a stream, it has a tendency to migrate out of a dam during rainy periods, especially at night. It is not clear that losses from this habit reduce its numbers however, as its populations in stable dams seem to remain indefinitely. Ecologically the species often is quite important, as it is a detritus shredder, a predator of small fish and amphibians, and a major prey item for large fish, otters, aquatic reptiles, and various other animals. It also is an intermediate host to various parasites. | Species | Animal | Crustacean |
Daren Queenan (born October 19, 1966) is a retired American professional basketball player. Born in Norristown, Pennsylvania, he attended Norristown High School as a teenager but went virtually unrecruited by colleges to play basketball except for nearby Lehigh University in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. Queenan was an undersized center in high school, standing at 6 ft 4 in (1.93 m), but then-assistant Lehigh coach Fran McCaffery signed him to play for the Mountain Hawks and turned him into a shooting guard/small forward (toward the end of Queenan's career at Lehigh, McCaffery said, \"You wouldn't believe how many coaches told me Daren couldn't play for them. Every coach makes mistakes, but when you say a kid can't play, and he scores 3,000 points, that's a mistake.\") McCaffery would become Lehigh's head coach for Queenan's final three seasons. | Agent | Athlete | BasketballPlayer |
NGC 2770 is a type SASc spiral galaxy located about 88 million light years away, in the constellation Lynx.Three Type Ib supernovae have occurred there recently: SN 1999eh, SN 2007uy, and SN 2008D. The last of these is famous for being the first supernova detected by the X-Rays released very early on in its formation, rather than by the optical light emitted during the later stages, which allowed the first moments of the outburst to be observed. It is possible that NGC 2770's interactions with a suspected companion galaxy may have created the massive stars causing this activity. NGC 2770 was also the target for the first binocular image produced by the Large Binocular Telescope. | Place | CelestialBody | Galaxy |

Requiem sharks are sharks of the family Carcharhinidae in the order Carcharhiniformes, containing migratory, live-bearing sharks of warm seas (sometimes of brackish or fresh water) such as the spinner shark, the blacknose shark, the blacktip shark, the blacktail reef shark, and the blacktip reef shark. The name may be related to the French word for shark, requin, which is itself of disputed etymology. One derivation of the latter is from Latin requiem (\"rest\"), which would thereby create a cyclic etymology (requiem-requin-requiem), but other sources derive it from the verb reschignier (\"to grimace while baring teeth\"). Family members have the usual carcharhiniform characteristics. Their eyes are round, and the pectoral fins are completely behind the five gill slits. Most species are viviparous, the young being born fully developed. They vary widely in size, from as small as 69 cm (2.26 ft) adult length in the Australian sharpnose shark, up to 5.5 m (18 ft) adult length in the tiger shark. Requiem sharks are responsible for a large proportion of attacks on humans; however, due to the difficulty in identifying individual species, a degree of inaccuracy exists in attack records. | Species | Animal | Fish |

Al Quds Al Arabi (Arabic: القدس العربي, English: \"Arab Jerusalem\") is an independent pan-Arab daily newspaper, published in London since 1989 and owned by Palestinian expatriates. The paper's motto is (Arabic: يومية سياسية مستقلة \"daily, political, independent\"). Its circulation is estimated to be somewhere between 15,000 and 50,000. From the start until July 2013, its editor-in-chief was Abdel Bari Atwan, who was born in a Palestinian refugee camp in Gaza Strip in 1950. The paper has a reputation for being more populist and aggressive in its defense of the Palestinian cause and by extension more confrontational toward Israel, particularly when compared to the other prominent off-shore pan-Arab dailies, like Asharq al-Awsat or Al-Hayat, which are owned by members of the Saudi royal family. As indicated by its motto, the paper stresses this distinction by emphasizing its independent ownership and viewpoint relative to the other prominent pan-Arab dailies. | Work | PeriodicalLiterature | Newspaper |

The British edition of the American magazine Men's Health was launched in February 1995 with a separate editorial team, and is the best-selling monthly men's magazine in the United Kingdom, selling more than GQ and Esquire put together. The magazine focuses on topics such as fitness, sex, relationships, health, weight loss, nutrition, fashion, technology and style. The currently editor-in-chief is Morgan Rees; Toby Wiseman is the featured editor. The UK version has maintained the image of the original US version, in particular by promoting the body care, nutrition and all matters relating to the male universe. The concept of aesthetically-perfect man is an extreme with the presence on the cover of bare-chested muscular male models. Because of this, the magazine has often been criticized for promoting an unattainable model of man. To strengthen the idea of achievability, the staff of the magazine often try out the health and fitness programmes themselves and write about their experiences alongside pictorial evidence. In March 2006, one of the UK writers, Dan Rookwood, appeared on the cover having transformed his body shape while working at the magazine. The staff of German Men's Health have also appeared on their cover, and UK fitness editor Ray Klerck has appeared on the cover and within the pages of the magazine as a model. | Work | PeriodicalLiterature | Magazine |

Colonel José Antonio Remón Cantera (April 11, 1908 – January 2, 1955), was president of Panama from October 1, 1952, until his death in 1955. He belonged to the National Patriotic Coalition (CNP). He joined the National Police in 1931, becoming its chief in 1947. In this position, he was responsible for the coup against acting president Daniel Chanis Pinzón. Beginning in 1953, his administration began to negotiate amendments to the Panama Canal treaty with the U.S. administration of President Dwight D. Eisenhower. These negotiations led to an agreement, ratified in 1955, that substantially raised the annual annuity paid to Panama (from $430,000 to $1.9 million) and resulted in the handover of approximately $20 million in property from the Panama Canal Company to Panama. General José Remón was the man behind the scenes of several coups that ousted Dr. Arnulfo Arias from power, and arguably the true founder of the social reforming militarism that was later dubbed \"Torrijismo\" after General Omar Torrijos. \"Neither millions nor alms – we want justice\" was Remón's most memorable statement of principles. Remón went on to be elected President of Panama in 1952. On January 2, 1955, Remón was ambushed at a race track and fired upon by an unknown number of assailants with sub-machineguns. The incident took place at 7:30 pm; Remón died in hospital two hours later. Two other men were killed in the attack, including one of Remón's bodyguards. | Agent | Politician | President |
