The 13 May 1969 incident is the Sino-Malay sectarian violence in Kuala Lumpur (then part of the state of Selangor), Malaysia. The riot occurred in the aftermath of the 1969 Malaysian general election when opposition parties made gain at the expense of the ruling coalition Alliance Party. Official report put the number of deaths due to the riots at 196, although Western diplomatic sources at the time suggested a toll of close to 600, with most of the victims Chinese. The racial riots led to a declaration of a state of national emergency or Darurat by the Yang di-Pertuan Agong resulting in the suspension of the Parliament by the Malaysian government, while the National Operations Council (NOC), also known as the Majlis Gerakan Negara, was established as a caretaker government to temporarily govern the country between 1969 and 1971. The event is significant in Malaysian politics as it led to the resignation of the first Prime Minister Tunku Abdul Rahman, and eventually resulted in a change in government policy that would favour Malays by the implementation of the Rukun Negara and New Economic Policy (NEP). | Event | SocietalEvent | MilitaryConflict |

The Better Half-Dozen was an American garage rock band formed in New Orleans, Louisiana, in 1966. The band played at local colleges, high schools and clubs in New Orleans and surrounding cities and states. They released one 45 single with 2 originals called \"I'm Gonna Leave You\" and \"I Could Have Loved Her\", which, despite insufficient promotion, has remained a classic garage rock recording. The band originally assembled in 1965 as a group known as the Avantis, and included founding members John D’Antoni (bass guitar, backing vocals) Ted Genter (keyboards) Tommy Hardtegen (drums) Mike \"Mange\" Mangiapane (lead guitar, backing vocals) Ed \"Eddie\" McNamara (rhythm guitar, backing vocals, and Steve Sklamba (lead vocals). Practicing at their homes, the group swapped drummers when Rickey Moore, a journeyman musician who achieved regional notoriety for playing in New Orleans-based bands the Coachmen and later the Zoofs. After graduating from high school (except for Rickey who was younger than the other band members), the band and their manager Steve Montagnet decided to drop the car moniker and rename themselves the Better Half-Dozen, an allusion to the six members that comprised the band. Starting as the opening act for fellow Louisiana group the Basement Wall, the Better Half-Dozen became a popular live attraction in New Orleans and Baton Rouge, with a setlist that included mainly cover versions of the British and other Top 40 hits. In October 1966, Montagnet, who had been promoting live shows through his organization known as Splendor Enterprises, financed the recordings of two original tunes at Cosimo Matassa's studio. The band released their debut single on the U-DOE record label, which featured the original tunes \"I'm Gonna Leave You\" and \"I Could Have Loved Her\". Despite insignificant coverage and only 500 copies being released, the songs themselves became immensely popular among the teen fanbase when the Better Half-Dozen introduced them into their live repertoire. The explosion of the British Invasion in the mid-sixties had immense effect on garage groups, including the Better Half-Dozen. Commenting on the group's sound, Moore said in an interview \"in those days, there were basically two types of white bands. There were older-style bands that used horns and brass instruments, and there were more modern-style bands, such as The Beatles. Before the group disbanded in 1968, they recorded two covers: the Yardbirds' \"Mister, You're a Better Man Than I\" and the West Coast Pop Art Experimental Band's \"Transparent Day\". These covers were never released. Both of the band's released songs are featured on Louisiana Punk Groups from the 60s, Volume 1 and Sixties Archives, Volume 3. | Agent | Group | Band |

Monaco: What's Yours Is Mine is a stealth action video game released in 2013 for the Xbox 360, Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X and Linux. The PC versions of Monaco were developed and published by Pocketwatch Games while the Xbox Live Arcade version was published by Majesco Entertainment. The gameplay in Monaco consists of up to four players who each control different characters while they partake in heists and robberies in many different locations. Players can control one of eight characters, each of whom have their own characteristics, such as the Hacker who can put viruses onto security systems, or the Cleaner who can put guards to sleep. The main difference between single-player and multiplayer modes is that in multiplayer, when a player dies they must be revived before the level can be completed. Development of Monaco began while Andy Schatz was working for TKO Software, before he founded his own independent company Pocketwatch Games. The game started as nothing more than a Pac-Man clone that he referred to as \"The Sims meets Diablo meets Hitman\". After being turned down twice by Microsoft Game Studios, Monaco was released for the Xbox 360 by Majesco Entertainment. After discussions with Schatz, the soundtrack was composed by American composer Austin Wintory, who had worked on the soundtracks for games such as Flow and Journey. Andy Nguyen, whom Schatz met while he was looking for playtesters, quit his job at Citibank so that he could spend more time helping with the development of Monaco as a level designer and producer, as well as working in booths. The game was positively received by reviewers and won two awards at the 2010 GDC Independent Games Festival. Reviewers praised the cooperative gameplay highly but said that the single-player was less fun because there was less to do. Many comparisons were made between Monaco and other media; the most common being the 1960 heist film Oceans 11. Reviewers liked the art style and said that the gameplay suited the minimalistic design. | Work | Software | VideoGame |

The 1932 U.S. Open was the 36th U.S. Open, held June 23–25 at Fresh Meadow Country Club in Flushing, New York, a neighborhood in the north-central part of the New York City borough of Queens. Gene Sarazen won his second U.S. Open championship, and the fifth of his seven major titles, ten years after his first U.S. Open win. Earlier in the month, he won the 1932 British Open in England. Sarazen began with rounds of 74 and 76, which left him five strokes behind co-leaders José Jurado and Philip Perkins. With a three-under-par back-nine in the third round, Sarazen carded an even-par 70 to get within a shot of Perkins after 54 holes. Perkins continued his solid play in the final round, shooting a 70 and a 289 total, while Bobby Cruickshank shot 68 to tie him. They were no match for Sarazen on this day, however, who carded a 66 (–4) to earn a three-stroke victory at 286. Sarazen set several scoring records on his way to the Open title. His 66 in the final round set a new tournament record, and a champion did not shoot a better final round until Arnold Palmer closed with 65 in 1960. His 286 total tied the tournament record, while his 136 over the final 36 holes set a record that stood until 1983. Sarazen was certainly helped by his familiarity with the venue; he was club pro at Fresh Meadow for five years, from 1925 to 1930. Four-time major champion Jim Barnes played his final major and finished in 55th place. Johnny Goodman won low-amateur honors at 14th; he went on to win the championship the following year, and remains the last amateur champion. The course where this U.S. Open was played in Queens no longer exists. Designed by A. W. Tillinghast, it opened in 1923 and also hosted the PGA Championship in 1930, won by Tommy Armour. Under increasing development and tax pressure, the Fresh Meadow Country Club sold the property in 1946, which was developed as a residential neighborhood (the Fresh Meadows section of Queens). The club then purchased the property, clubhouse, and golf course of the defunct Lakeville Golf & Country Club in Lake Success, its current home. Daily admission for the U.S. Open in 1932 was $2.20, or $5.50 for all three days. | Event | Tournament | GolfTournament |

Abbott v. Abbott, 560 U.S. 1 (2010), was a decision by the Supreme Court of the United States holding that a parent's ne exeat right (in this case: the right to prevent a child to leave the country) is a \"right to custody\" under the Hague Convention on the Civil Aspects of International Child Abduction and the US International Child Abduction Remedies Act. The child thus should have been returned to Chile, the country of \"habitual residence\" because the mother violated the ne exeat right of the father when taking the child to the United States without the father's consent. | UnitOfWork | LegalCase | SupremeCourtOfTheUnitedStatesCase |

367943 Duende, also known by its provisional designation 2012 DA14, is an Aten near-Earth asteroid with an estimated diameter of 30 meters (98 ft). Before radar imaging, its estimated diameter was 45–50 meters. During its 15 February , Duende passed 27,700 km (17,200 mi), or 4.3 Earth radii, from Earth's surface. This is a record close approach for a known object of this size. About 16 hours before the closest approach of Duende, an asteroid entered Earth's atmosphere above Russia, which was, however, unrelated to it because it had a completely different orbit. | Place | CelestialBody | Planet |

The M23 rebellion was fighting that occurred between the March 23 Movement and the government in North Kivu, Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) since the formal end of the Second Congo War in 2003. In April 2012, former National Congress for the Defence of the People (CNDP) soldiers mutinied against the DRC government supported by the peacekeeping contingent of the United Nations Organization Stabilization Mission in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (MONUSCO). Mutineers formed a rebel group called the March 23 Movement (M23), also known as the Congolese Revolutionary Army, composed of former members of the rebel CNDP, allegedly sponsored by the government of the neighbouring state of Rwanda. On 20 November 2012, M23 rebels took control of Goma, a provincial capital with a population of one million people. By the end of November that year, the conflict had forced more than 140,000 people to flee their homes, according to the U.N. refugee agency, on top of those already forced from their homes by previous rounds of fighting in the region. After repelling an ill-organized government counterattack and making some further gains, M23 agreed to withdraw from Goma on their own and left the city in early December. On 24 February 2013, eleven African nations signed an agreement designed to bring peace to the region. In October, Congo told the UN that the movement was virtually finished after being pushed back to a small area near Rwanda. On 7 November 2013, following significant defeats to a government offensive, M23 surrendered. | Event | SocietalEvent | MilitaryConflict |

Romer v. Evans, 517 U.S. 620 (1996), is a landmark United States Supreme Court case dealing with sexual orientation and state laws. It was the first Supreme Court case to address gay rights since Bowers v. Hardwick (1986), when the Court had held that laws criminalizing sodomy were constitutional. The Court ruled in a 6–3 decision that a state constitutional amendment in Colorado preventing protected status based upon homosexuality or bisexuality did not satisfy the Equal Protection Clause. The majority opinion in Romer stated that the amendment lacked \"a rational relationship to legitimate state interests\", and the dissent stated that the majority \"evidently agrees that 'rational basis'—the normal test for compliance with the Equal Protection Clause—is the governing standard\". The state constitutional amendment failed rational basis review. The decision in Romer set the stage for Lawrence v. Texas (2003), where the Court overruled its decision in Bowers, for the Supreme Court ruling striking down Section 3 of the Defense of Marriage Act in United States v. Windsor (2013), and for the Court's ruling striking down state bans on same-sex marriage in Obergefell v. Hodges (2015). Justice Anthony Kennedy authored all four opinions, and was joined by Justices Breyer and Ginsburg in every one. | UnitOfWork | LegalCase | SupremeCourtOfTheUnitedStatesCase |

Police began as a three-part OVA series seen as a prequel to the Bubblegum series that was called A.D. Police Files released in 1990.

Mire Mare is an unreleased video game by Ultimate Play The Game. Underwurlde, the second game in the Sabreman series of titles from Ultimate (between Sabre Wulf and Knight Lore), has three separate exits, each naming another game in the series. The first exit names Knight Lore, which was released at the same time as Underwurlde. The second names Pentagram, which surfaced in 1986. The third exit names Mire Mare, which was expected, but never published. On successful completion of the Knight Lore game, the poem displayed reads: THE POTION CASTS ITS MAGIC STRONG ALL EVIL MUST BEWARE THE SPELL HAS BROKEN YOU ARE FREE GO FORTH TO MIREMARE And on successful completion of Pentagram, the message displayed is: CONGRATULATIONS YOU HAVE COMPLETED THE PENTAGRAM YOUR ADVENTURE CONTINUES IN MIRE MARE The Mire Mare story is largely connected to the partial sale of Ultimate to U.S. Gold. The most widely believed story is that Mire Mare was actually coded before Gunfright (Ultimate's last title before US Gold's partial takeover.) With a view to the popularity of the Sabreman character, it was decided to hold Mire Mare back as Ultimate's 'swan song'. However, the partial takeover moved a lot quicker than anticipated, and although Ultimate had prior to this released Gunfright, they had not yet released Mire Mare. US Gold seemingly were not interested in releasing new Ultimate material. Instead they were more interested in releasing the Ultimate back catalogue on the £2.99 Kixx label. Naturally, Ultimate were not too pleased about this, and when US Gold asked Ultimate about Mire Mare (and mentioned the fact they would like to release it alongside the Ultimate back catalogue) they were subsequently told that it was not ready, and would not be completed for another 6 months, at which point US Gold decided to cancel the project. An interview conducted on the Ultimate World website states clearly that the game was completed, and that even the artwork was prepared. An ex-employee even claims to have played it. It had been widely speculated that Mire Mare was to be presented in Ultimate's Filmation isometric graphic style, either with static screens (as used in Knight Lore, Alien 8 and Pentagram), or scrolling (as in Nightshade and Gunfright) but Rare (the company that rose from Ultimate's ashes) revealed in the late 1990s that it would actually have been more like the top-down Sabre Wulf. Rare also explained that although the basic game design was completed Ultimate's hectic schedule meant that the title's actual coding was never completed. | Work | Software | VideoGame |
