108 st georges terrace or south32 tower (formerly known as the bankwest tower, the bond tower and the r&i tower) is a 50-storey office tower in perth, western australia.completed in 1988, the building measures 214 metres (702 ft) to its roof and 247 metres (810 ft) to the tip of its communications antenna.it was the tallest building in perth from its completion in 1988 until 1992 when it was overtaken in height by central park.as of 2023, it is the third-tallest building in the city.the concrete tower has a distinctive profile, with a triangular plan.the site occupied by the tower was home to the palace hotel, and organised opposition was formed to try to save that building from demolition to make way for an office tower.the site was subsequently acquired by businessman alan bond and the tower was approved and constructed in a plan that would retain much of the palace hotel.the tower then remained the headquarters of bond's companies until their collapse.the tower has also been the headquarters of bankwest (formerly known as the r&i bank), between its completion and 2012.as of 2015, it is now the headquarters of mining company south32.the then-opulent palace hotel opened on this corner in 1897 during the days of the western australian gold rush, and developed a 'colourful' history, hosting numerous celebrities of the time.the plot was purchased by the commonwealth banking corporation, which announced in 1972 that it planned to redevelop the site as high-rise offices.during the 1950s and 1960s, many of perth's older buildings had been demolished to make way for modern developments, which led to wide criticism of the perth city council for approving such redevelopments.in this atmosphere, wide public protest resulted and a lobby group of concerned citizens calling themselves 'the palace guards' worked to save the historic building.this outcry led to condemnation of the plans and heritage listing of the property by the national trust, and forced the commonwealth bank to ask the federal government to take the property off its hands.the property was subsequently purchased from the commonwealth bank by businessman alan bond in 1978 along with the adjacent terrace arcade.these plans made some effort at preservation of the palace hotel, by retaining the facade and main foyer area of the building.however, the construction of the modern office tower at the site's north-eastern corner required demolition of terrace arcade, the eastern accommodation wing and the hotel's renowned dining room.the rationale given for the works required was that extensive renovations to the palace hotel in 1915 and the 1930s had weakened its structure significantly, as well as problems controlling white ants in the structure.the development exceeded the acceptable plot ratio in the town planning scheme, however the perth city council pre-approved the plans nonetheless, on the condition that bond corporation kept the palace hotel operating as a hotel.demolition of parts of the site commenced in august 1981, and by august 1983 construction had completed on the tower's foundation and three levels of underground parking.however, there were continuing doubts about the viability of the building, slowing the pace of the development.this changed on 7 september 1984 when r&i bank chairman david fischer signed a joint venture agreement over the development with austmark international, a subsidiary of bond corporation.the bank, which was at the time wholly owned by the government of western australia, consulted then-premier brian burke in deciding whether to invest in the project.following the investment in the project by the bank, the developers successfully sought modification of the original planning approval by the perth city council to allow the use of the palace hotel as a bank, rather than remaining as a public hotel. | pampre | dressing | hyperoartian | no related information |
abraham alexander ribicoff (april 9, 1910 – february 22, 1998) was an american democratic party politician from the state of connecticut.he represented connecticut in the united states house of representatives and senate and was the 80th governor of connecticut and secretary of health, education, and welfare in president john f. kennedy's cabinet.he was connecticut's first and to date only jewish governor.ribicoff's relatively poor parents valued education and insisted that all his earnings from part-time boyhood jobs go toward his future schooling.after high school, he worked for a year at a nearby zipper factory of the g. e. prentice company to earn additional funds for college.ribicoff enrolled at new york university in 1928, then transferred to the university of chicago after the prentice company made him the chicago office manager.while in chicago, ribicoff coped with school and work schedules and was permitted to enter the university's law school before finishing his undergraduate degree.still a student, he married ruth siegel on june 28, 1931; they had two children.ribicoff served as editor of the university of chicago law review in his third year and received an llb cum laude in 1933, being admitted to the connecticut bar the same year.after practicing law in the office of a hartford lawyer, ribicoff set up his practice, first in kensington and later in hartford.from 1941 to 1943 and again from 1945 to 1947 he was the judge of hartford police court.during his political career, ribicoff was a protégé of john moran bailey, the powerful chairman of the democratic party of connecticut.during that time, he served on the foreign affairs committee, a position usually reserved for members with more seniority, and was a mostly loyal supporter of the foreign and domestic policies of president harry s. truman's administration.generally liberal in his outlook, he surprised many by opposing a $32 million appropriation for the construction of a dam in enfield, connecticut, arguing that the money was better spent on military needs and foreign policy initiatives such as the marshall plan.in 1952 he made an unsuccessful bid for election to fill a vacancy in the united states senate, losing to prescott bush.as governor (1955–1961), ribicoff soon faced the challenge of rebuilding his state in the wake of devastating floods that occurred in the late summer and fall of 1955, and he successfully led bipartisan efforts to aid damaged areas.ribicoff then successfully argued for increased state spending on schools and welfare programs.he also supported an amendment to the state constitution that enhanced the governing powers of local municipalities.easily reelected in 1958, ribicoff had by now become active on the national political scene.a longtime friend of massachusetts senator john f. kennedy, ribicoff had nominated his fellow new englander for vice president at the 1956 democratic national convention and was one of the first public officials to endorse kennedy's presidential campaign.he reportedly declined the position of attorney general for fear that he might create needless controversy within the emerging civil rights movement because he was jewish, and he instead chose to be secretary of health, education, and welfare (hew).although he managed to secure a revision of the 1935 social security act that liberalized requirements for aid to dependent children, ribicoff was unable to gain approval for the administration's medicare and school aid bills.eventually, he tired of attempting to manage the department, whose very size made it, in his opinion, unmanageable.ribicoff reflected that he had sought out the position of hew secretary mainly out of concern for education and 'realized that the problems of health and welfare were so overriding that education was relegated to the back burner' during his tenure. | abraham a ribicoff | party | democratic party united states | abraham alexander ribicoff (april 9, 1910 – february 22, 1998) was an american democratic party politician from the state of connecticut.during his political career, ribicoff was a protégé of john moran bailey, the powerful chairman of the democratic party of connecticut.a longtime friend of massachusetts senator john f. kennedy, ribicoff had nominated his fellow new englander for vice president at the 1956 democratic national convention and was one of the first public officials to endorse kennedy's presidential campaign. |

108 st georges terrace or south32 tower (formerly known as the bankwest tower, the bond tower and the r&i tower) is a 50-storey office tower in perth, western australia.completed in 1988, the building measures 214 metres (702 ft) to its roof and 247 metres (810 ft) to the tip of its communications antenna.it was the tallest building in perth from its completion in 1988 until 1992 when it was overtaken in height by central park.as of 2023, it is the third-tallest building in the city.the concrete tower has a distinctive profile, with a triangular plan.the site occupied by the tower was home to the palace hotel, and organised opposition was formed to try to save that building from demolition to make way for an office tower.the site was subsequently acquired by businessman alan bond and the tower was approved and constructed in a plan that would retain much of the palace hotel.the tower then remained the headquarters of bond's companies until their collapse.the tower has also been the headquarters of bankwest (formerly known as the r&i bank), between its completion and 2012.as of 2015, it is now the headquarters of mining company south32.the then-opulent palace hotel opened on this corner in 1897 during the days of the western australian gold rush, and developed a 'colourful' history, hosting numerous celebrities of the time.the plot was purchased by the commonwealth banking corporation, which announced in 1972 that it planned to redevelop the site as high-rise offices.during the 1950s and 1960s, many of perth's older buildings had been demolished to make way for modern developments, which led to wide criticism of the perth city council for approving such redevelopments.in this atmosphere, wide public protest resulted and a lobby group of concerned citizens calling themselves 'the palace guards' worked to save the historic building.this outcry led to condemnation of the plans and heritage listing of the property by the national trust, and forced the commonwealth bank to ask the federal government to take the property off its hands.the property was subsequently purchased from the commonwealth bank by businessman alan bond in 1978 along with the adjacent terrace arcade.these plans made some effort at preservation of the palace hotel, by retaining the facade and main foyer area of the building.however, the construction of the modern office tower at the site's north-eastern corner required demolition of terrace arcade, the eastern accommodation wing and the hotel's renowned dining room.the rationale given for the works required was that extensive renovations to the palace hotel in 1915 and the 1930s had weakened its structure significantly, as well as problems controlling white ants in the structure.the development exceeded the acceptable plot ratio in the town planning scheme, however the perth city council pre-approved the plans nonetheless, on the condition that bond corporation kept the palace hotel operating as a hotel.demolition of parts of the site commenced in august 1981, and by august 1983 construction had completed on the tower's foundation and three levels of underground parking.however, there were continuing doubts about the viability of the building, slowing the pace of the development.this changed on 7 september 1984 when r&i bank chairman david fischer signed a joint venture agreement over the development with austmark international, a subsidiary of bond corporation.the bank, which was at the time wholly owned by the government of western australia, consulted then-premier brian burke in deciding whether to invest in the project.following the investment in the project by the bank, the developers successfully sought modification of the original planning approval by the perth city council to allow the use of the palace hotel as a bank, rather than remaining as a public hotel. | plebiscite | fremontodendron | tergiversating <tsp> plebiscite | handloader | ogum | no related information |
wizards at war is the eighth book in the young wizards series by diane duane.in this book, for the first time in a millennia, the wizards would have to go to war... == plot summary == the lone power, suspecting that a new threat is rising to its dark abilities, creates a surge of dark matter, called 'the pullulus', to eclipse the universe.because of the way that the pullulus affects the universe's structure, the senior wizards lose their wizardry and only wizards before adulthood are still able to fight.ponch uses his tracking abilities to lead nita, kit, ronan, and the wizardly tourists from wizard's holiday filif and sker'ret across the galaxy to try to find and activate an instrumentality that they are told is the only way to stop the lone power.dairine and roshaun take a trip back to the motherboard from high wizardry to consult the mobiles before joining the others.they find out that the 'weapon' is actually the hesper, a version of the lone power who never fell.the group finds the world the hesper is on.unfortunately, the world is one that is 'lost', or devoted to everything the lone power represents.despite this, nita, kit, and the others go down to the planet and start searching for the hesper, after adopting disguises.with ponch's help, they find the hesper, and nita starts teaching her concepts about 'self' and 'choice', concepts that she had no previous understanding of.nita ask the hesper to make a choice to fight the lone power, but before she can choose, they are captured by the lone power, who suppresses all wizardry in the area roughly analogous to cutting a jedi off from the force.ronan sacrifices himself to free the one's champion, who resides inside him, to give the hesper a final chance to make her choice.the champion holds the lone power back and restores wizardry to the area, allowing the hesper to become embodied.as the hesper assumes her position, the lone power is defeated, and the wizards are free to go, as ronan is near death and the pullulus is advancing towards earth and filif's home.the wizards head back to earth, except for filif, who returns to his planet to fight the pullulus there.they arrive on the moon and find a gathering of all earth's remaining active wizards, working on a spell to stop the pullulus.the group joins in to gives energy to the spell, which at first seems to work in pushing the pullulus back, but then fails due to a lack of power.as the pullulus comes closer, roshaun uses his ability to work with stars to directly channel some of the sun's matter to burn the pullulus, which works for a period until the power drain becomes too great for a single wizard.while the remaining wizards prepare to make one last stand to destroy the pullulus, kit tells ponch to take carmela and kit and nita's parents away from earth.ponch starts to obey, but is caught between doing what he is told and staying with his master and friend.he decides to do neither, he completes the canine choice, which had been held in abeyance because of the long-ago dogs' loyalty to their human partners.the pullulus takes on a wolf-like shape and ponch becomes a canine incarnation of the one.the wolf of darkness clashes against the hound of starlight, and it is the wolf that is beaten.because ponch has incarnated as a power, much like the hesper, he can no longer be with kit. | angledog | spaver | explants <tsp> angledog | stomatomy | ptarmic | no related information |

108 st georges terrace or south32 tower (formerly known as the bankwest tower, the bond tower and the r&i tower) is a 50-storey office tower in perth, western australia.completed in 1988, the building measures 214 metres (702 ft) to its roof and 247 metres (810 ft) to the tip of its communications antenna.it was the tallest building in perth from its completion in 1988 until 1992 when it was overtaken in height by central park.as of 2023, it is the third-tallest building in the city.the concrete tower has a distinctive profile, with a triangular plan.the site occupied by the tower was home to the palace hotel, and organised opposition was formed to try to save that building from demolition to make way for an office tower.the site was subsequently acquired by businessman alan bond and the tower was approved and constructed in a plan that would retain much of the palace hotel.the tower then remained the headquarters of bond's companies until their collapse.the tower has also been the headquarters of bankwest (formerly known as the r&i bank), between its completion and 2012.as of 2015, it is now the headquarters of mining company south32.the then-opulent palace hotel opened on this corner in 1897 during the days of the western australian gold rush, and developed a 'colourful' history, hosting numerous celebrities of the time.the plot was purchased by the commonwealth banking corporation, which announced in 1972 that it planned to redevelop the site as high-rise offices.during the 1950s and 1960s, many of perth's older buildings had been demolished to make way for modern developments, which led to wide criticism of the perth city council for approving such redevelopments.in this atmosphere, wide public protest resulted and a lobby group of concerned citizens calling themselves 'the palace guards' worked to save the historic building.this outcry led to condemnation of the plans and heritage listing of the property by the national trust, and forced the commonwealth bank to ask the federal government to take the property off its hands.the property was subsequently purchased from the commonwealth bank by businessman alan bond in 1978 along with the adjacent terrace arcade.these plans made some effort at preservation of the palace hotel, by retaining the facade and main foyer area of the building.however, the construction of the modern office tower at the site's north-eastern corner required demolition of terrace arcade, the eastern accommodation wing and the hotel's renowned dining room.the rationale given for the works required was that extensive renovations to the palace hotel in 1915 and the 1930s had weakened its structure significantly, as well as problems controlling white ants in the structure.the development exceeded the acceptable plot ratio in the town planning scheme, however the perth city council pre-approved the plans nonetheless, on the condition that bond corporation kept the palace hotel operating as a hotel.demolition of parts of the site commenced in august 1981, and by august 1983 construction had completed on the tower's foundation and three levels of underground parking.however, there were continuing doubts about the viability of the building, slowing the pace of the development.this changed on 7 september 1984 when r&i bank chairman david fischer signed a joint venture agreement over the development with austmark international, a subsidiary of bond corporation.the bank, which was at the time wholly owned by the government of western australia, consulted then-premier brian burke in deciding whether to invest in the project.following the investment in the project by the bank, the developers successfully sought modification of the original planning approval by the perth city council to allow the use of the palace hotel as a bank, rather than remaining as a public hotel. | inbody | undistrusted | ammoniuret | no related information |

abraham alexander ribicoff (april 9, 1910 – february 22, 1998) was an american democratic party politician from the state of connecticut.he represented connecticut in the united states house of representatives and senate and was the 80th governor of connecticut and secretary of health, education, and welfare in president john f. kennedy's cabinet.he was connecticut's first and to date only jewish governor.ribicoff's relatively poor parents valued education and insisted that all his earnings from part-time boyhood jobs go toward his future schooling.after high school, he worked for a year at a nearby zipper factory of the g. e. prentice company to earn additional funds for college.ribicoff enrolled at new york university in 1928, then transferred to the university of chicago after the prentice company made him the chicago office manager.while in chicago, ribicoff coped with school and work schedules and was permitted to enter the university's law school before finishing his undergraduate degree.still a student, he married ruth siegel on june 28, 1931; they had two children.ribicoff served as editor of the university of chicago law review in his third year and received an llb cum laude in 1933, being admitted to the connecticut bar the same year.after practicing law in the office of a hartford lawyer, ribicoff set up his practice, first in kensington and later in hartford.from 1941 to 1943 and again from 1945 to 1947 he was the judge of hartford police court.during his political career, ribicoff was a protégé of john moran bailey, the powerful chairman of the democratic party of connecticut.during that time, he served on the foreign affairs committee, a position usually reserved for members with more seniority, and was a mostly loyal supporter of the foreign and domestic policies of president harry s. truman's administration.generally liberal in his outlook, he surprised many by opposing a $32 million appropriation for the construction of a dam in enfield, connecticut, arguing that the money was better spent on military needs and foreign policy initiatives such as the marshall plan.in 1952 he made an unsuccessful bid for election to fill a vacancy in the united states senate, losing to prescott bush.as governor (1955–1961), ribicoff soon faced the challenge of rebuilding his state in the wake of devastating floods that occurred in the late summer and fall of 1955, and he successfully led bipartisan efforts to aid damaged areas.ribicoff then successfully argued for increased state spending on schools and welfare programs.he also supported an amendment to the state constitution that enhanced the governing powers of local municipalities.easily reelected in 1958, ribicoff had by now become active on the national political scene.a longtime friend of massachusetts senator john f. kennedy, ribicoff had nominated his fellow new englander for vice president at the 1956 democratic national convention and was one of the first public officials to endorse kennedy's presidential campaign.he reportedly declined the position of attorney general for fear that he might create needless controversy within the emerging civil rights movement because he was jewish, and he instead chose to be secretary of health, education, and welfare (hew).although he managed to secure a revision of the 1935 social security act that liberalized requirements for aid to dependent children, ribicoff was unable to gain approval for the administration's medicare and school aid bills.eventually, he tired of attempting to manage the department, whose very size made it, in his opinion, unmanageable.ribicoff reflected that he had sought out the position of hew secretary mainly out of concern for education and 'realized that the problems of health and welfare were so overriding that education was relegated to the back burner' during his tenure. | abraham a ribicoff | successor | john n dempsey | during his political career, ribicoff was a protégé of john moran bailey, the powerful chairman of the democratic party of connecticut.a longtime friend of massachusetts senator john f. kennedy, ribicoff had nominated his fellow new englander for vice president at the 1956 democratic national convention and was one of the first public officials to endorse kennedy's presidential campaign. |

wolf solent is a novel by john cowper powys (1872–1963) that was written while he was based in patchin place, new york city, and travelling around the us as a lecturer.it was published by simon and schuster in may 1929 in new york.the british edition, published by jonathan cape, appeared in july 1929.this, powys's fourth novel, was his first literary success.it is a bildungsroman in which the eponymous protagonist, a thirty-five-year-old history teacher, returns to his birthplace, where he discovers the inadequacy of his dualistic philosophy.wolf resembles john cowper powys in that an elemental philosophy is at the centre of his life and, because, like powys, he hates science and modern inventions like cars and planes, and is attracted to slender, androgynous women.wolf solent is the first of powys's four wessex novels.powys both wrote about the same region as thomas hardy and was a twentieth-century successor to the great nineteenth-century novelist.the novel is set in the fictional towns of ramsgard, dorset, based on sherborne, dorset, where powys attended school from may 1883, blacksod, modelled on yeovil, somerset, and kings barton, modelled on bradford abbas, dorset.it has references to other places in dorset like dorchester and weymouth that were also full of memories for powys.there were six impressions of the first edition (american) between 1929 and 1930 and three of the british edition in 1929.there were translations into german (1930, french (1931), and several other european languages.however, powys had to cut 318 pages from his typescript before wolf solent was published by simon and schuster.these pages (amounting to six chapters) were hastily condensed into a revised chapter 19 ‘wine’ for its first publication.they were eventually published with editorial commentary in july 2021, but no attempt has been made as yet to incorporate them into an updated complete wolf solent.some variations to the plot — particularly the disfigurement of gerda, which is only referred to in the deleted chapters — make such an integration problematic.following the success of wolf solent three of powys's works of popular philosophy were also best-sellers: the meaning of culture (1929), in defence of sensuality (1930), a philosophy of solitude (1933).prior to this powys had published three apprentice novels: wood and stone (1915), rodmoor (1916), ducdame (1925), and had also written after my fashion in 1920, though it was not published until 1980.he had begun work on wolf solent in february 1925, it is 'the first of the four wessex novels which established john cowper powys's reputation', an allusion not only to the place but to the influence of thomas hardy on him: his first novel, wood and stone was dedicated to hardy.in the preface he wrote for the 1961 macdonald edition of the novel powys states: 'wolf solent is a book of nostalgia, written in a foreign country with the pen of a traveller and the ink-blood of his home.wolf solent is set in ramsgard, based on sherborne, dorset, where powys attended school from may 1883, as well as blacksod, modelled on yeovil, somerset, and dorchester, dorset and weymouth, dorset, both in dorset, all places full of memories for him.while powys had been born in shirley, derbyshire and lived there for this first seven years of his life, his father then returned to his home county of dorset, and, after a brief stay in weymouth, the family resided in dorchester from may 1880 until the christmas of 1885.powys's paternal grandmother lived in nearby weymouth.for the rest of his youth powys lived in montacute, just over the dorset border in somerset. | wolf solent | followedby | a glastonbury romance | no related information |
empresa brasileira de infraestrutura aeroportuária (abr.infraero) is a brazilian government corporation founded in 1973, authorized by law 5,862, being responsible for operating the main brazilian commercial airports.in 2011 infraero's airports carried 179,482,228 passengers, 1,464,484 tons of cargo, and operated 2,893,631 take-offs and landings.presently it manages 45 airports.the company is present all over brazil and employs approximately 23,000 employees and subcontracted workers nationwide.it is headquartered in the infraero building, in brasília, federal district.the brazilian airport infrastructure, which may match to the international standards, is being updated to meet the next years demand.the works are performed with the company's own revenue, mainly generated by the air cargo storage and custom duty, granting of commercial areas in the airports, boarding, landing and stay tariffs, and rendering of communication and air navigation auxiliary services.on 9 october 2009, it was announced that infraero will invest in airports abroad: infraero was invited by the government of paraguay to administer silvio pettirossi international airport in asunción and invited to participate in the privatization of ruzyně airport in prague, czech republic, among other investments.on march 4, 2010, the government of brazil announced that it would adopt the model of concession to airports.for this reason infraero would become a concessionary rather than an administrator of the airports that it currently operates.the main consequence is the fact that infraero will be able to open its capital and obtain resources necessary for infra-structure investments.another consequence is that municipal or state governments would have it easier to change concessionaries, such as the intention announced on 28 august 2009 by rosinha matheus, the mayor of campos dos goytacazes, who requested infraero the transfer of the administration of bartolomeu lysandro airport to the municipality.the minister of defense, to whom infraero was subordinate (currently it belongs to civil aviation secretary), announced being in favor of the transfer.listed airports included são paulo/guarulhos – governador andré franco montoro international airport, brasília – presidente juscelino kubitschek international airport, campinas – viracopos international airport, and later belo horizonte – tancredo neves international airport and rio de janeiro – galeão/antonio carlos jobim international airport.the plan was confirmed on may 31, 2011, and it was added that infraero would retain 49% of the shares of each privatized airport.the concession program was divided into phases, each with its own public bidding.the first phase was related to gov.aluízio alves international airport in natal.on august 22, 2011, its concession was won by the consortium inframérica, formed by the brazilian engineering group engevix (50%) and the argentinean group corporación américa (50%), which operates 52 airports in seven countries.after the signature of the contract of concession, inframérica consortium was authorized to commercially explore the facility for 25 years (with one possible five-year extension).as part of the concession agreement infraero holds no shares participation in this facility.the second phase was related to an auction that took place on february 6, 2012.in it consortium inframérica won the concession of brasília – presidente juscelino kubitschek international airport, which will be explored for a period of 25 years.on the same auction, consortium invepar-acsa composed by the brazilian investments and funds society invepar (90%) and the south african airport operator acsa (10%) won the concession for são paulo/guarulhos – governador andré franco montoro international airport and was authorized to explore the facility for 20 years.lastly, on the same day, consortium aeroportos brasil composed by the brazilian investments and funds society triunfo (45%), the engineering and investments society participações (45%), and the french airport operator egis avia (10%) won the concession for campinas – viracopos international airport, to be explored for 30 years.the third phase took place on november 22, 2013, when the brazilian government had a bidding process for: the operation of rio de janeiro–galeão international airport from 2014 until 2039 was won by the group aeroporto rio de janeiro formed by the brazilian conglomerate odebrecht (60%) and changi airport group (40%) paid brl 19 billion and won the concession. | occurred | wanning | monosynaptic | no related information |

wolf solent is a novel by john cowper powys (1872–1963) that was written while he was based in patchin place, new york city, and travelling around the us as a lecturer.it was published by simon and schuster in may 1929 in new york.the british edition, published by jonathan cape, appeared in july 1929.this, powys's fourth novel, was his first literary success.it is a bildungsroman in which the eponymous protagonist, a thirty-five-year-old history teacher, returns to his birthplace, where he discovers the inadequacy of his dualistic philosophy.wolf resembles john cowper powys in that an elemental philosophy is at the centre of his life and, because, like powys, he hates science and modern inventions like cars and planes, and is attracted to slender, androgynous women.wolf solent is the first of powys's four wessex novels.powys both wrote about the same region as thomas hardy and was a twentieth-century successor to the great nineteenth-century novelist.the novel is set in the fictional towns of ramsgard, dorset, based on sherborne, dorset, where powys attended school from may 1883, blacksod, modelled on yeovil, somerset, and kings barton, modelled on bradford abbas, dorset.it has references to other places in dorset like dorchester and weymouth that were also full of memories for powys.there were six impressions of the first edition (american) between 1929 and 1930 and three of the british edition in 1929.there were translations into german (1930, french (1931), and several other european languages.however, powys had to cut 318 pages from his typescript before wolf solent was published by simon and schuster.these pages (amounting to six chapters) were hastily condensed into a revised chapter 19 ‘wine’ for its first publication.they were eventually published with editorial commentary in july 2021, but no attempt has been made as yet to incorporate them into an updated complete wolf solent.some variations to the plot — particularly the disfigurement of gerda, which is only referred to in the deleted chapters — make such an integration problematic.following the success of wolf solent three of powys's works of popular philosophy were also best-sellers: the meaning of culture (1929), in defence of sensuality (1930), a philosophy of solitude (1933).prior to this powys had published three apprentice novels: wood and stone (1915), rodmoor (1916), ducdame (1925), and had also written after my fashion in 1920, though it was not published until 1980.he had begun work on wolf solent in february 1925, it is 'the first of the four wessex novels which established john cowper powys's reputation', an allusion not only to the place but to the influence of thomas hardy on him: his first novel, wood and stone was dedicated to hardy.in the preface he wrote for the 1961 macdonald edition of the novel powys states: 'wolf solent is a book of nostalgia, written in a foreign country with the pen of a traveller and the ink-blood of his home.wolf solent is set in ramsgard, based on sherborne, dorset, where powys attended school from may 1883, as well as blacksod, modelled on yeovil, somerset, and dorchester, dorset and weymouth, dorset, both in dorset, all places full of memories for him.while powys had been born in shirley, derbyshire and lived there for this first seven years of his life, his father then returned to his home county of dorset, and, after a brief stay in weymouth, the family resided in dorchester from may 1880 until the christmas of 1885.powys's paternal grandmother lived in nearby weymouth.for the rest of his youth powys lived in montacute, just over the dorset border in somerset. | gollywog | kantiara | letterform <tsp> gollywog | diazine | pyronomics | no related information |

108 st georges terrace or south32 tower (formerly known as the bankwest tower, the bond tower and the r&i tower) is a 50-storey office tower in perth, western australia.completed in 1988, the building measures 214 metres (702 ft) to its roof and 247 metres (810 ft) to the tip of its communications antenna.it was the tallest building in perth from its completion in 1988 until 1992 when it was overtaken in height by central park.as of 2023, it is the third-tallest building in the city.the concrete tower has a distinctive profile, with a triangular plan.the site occupied by the tower was home to the palace hotel, and organised opposition was formed to try to save that building from demolition to make way for an office tower.the site was subsequently acquired by businessman alan bond and the tower was approved and constructed in a plan that would retain much of the palace hotel.the tower then remained the headquarters of bond's companies until their collapse.the tower has also been the headquarters of bankwest (formerly known as the r&i bank), between its completion and 2012.as of 2015, it is now the headquarters of mining company south32.the then-opulent palace hotel opened on this corner in 1897 during the days of the western australian gold rush, and developed a 'colourful' history, hosting numerous celebrities of the time.the plot was purchased by the commonwealth banking corporation, which announced in 1972 that it planned to redevelop the site as high-rise offices.during the 1950s and 1960s, many of perth's older buildings had been demolished to make way for modern developments, which led to wide criticism of the perth city council for approving such redevelopments.in this atmosphere, wide public protest resulted and a lobby group of concerned citizens calling themselves 'the palace guards' worked to save the historic building.this outcry led to condemnation of the plans and heritage listing of the property by the national trust, and forced the commonwealth bank to ask the federal government to take the property off its hands.the property was subsequently purchased from the commonwealth bank by businessman alan bond in 1978 along with the adjacent terrace arcade.these plans made some effort at preservation of the palace hotel, by retaining the facade and main foyer area of the building.however, the construction of the modern office tower at the site's north-eastern corner required demolition of terrace arcade, the eastern accommodation wing and the hotel's renowned dining room.the rationale given for the works required was that extensive renovations to the palace hotel in 1915 and the 1930s had weakened its structure significantly, as well as problems controlling white ants in the structure.the development exceeded the acceptable plot ratio in the town planning scheme, however the perth city council pre-approved the plans nonetheless, on the condition that bond corporation kept the palace hotel operating as a hotel.demolition of parts of the site commenced in august 1981, and by august 1983 construction had completed on the tower's foundation and three levels of underground parking.however, there were continuing doubts about the viability of the building, slowing the pace of the development.this changed on 7 september 1984 when r&i bank chairman david fischer signed a joint venture agreement over the development with austmark international, a subsidiary of bond corporation.the bank, which was at the time wholly owned by the government of western australia, consulted then-premier brian burke in deciding whether to invest in the project.following the investment in the project by the bank, the developers successfully sought modification of the original planning approval by the perth city council to allow the use of the palace hotel as a bank, rather than remaining as a public hotel. | enterokinesia | datto | myentasis | no related information |

empresa brasileira de infraestrutura aeroportuária (abr.infraero) is a brazilian government corporation founded in 1973, authorized by law 5,862, being responsible for operating the main brazilian commercial airports.in 2011 infraero's airports carried 179,482,228 passengers, 1,464,484 tons of cargo, and operated 2,893,631 take-offs and landings.presently it manages 45 airports.the company is present all over brazil and employs approximately 23,000 employees and subcontracted workers nationwide.it is headquartered in the infraero building, in brasília, federal district.the brazilian airport infrastructure, which may match to the international standards, is being updated to meet the next years demand.the works are performed with the company's own revenue, mainly generated by the air cargo storage and custom duty, granting of commercial areas in the airports, boarding, landing and stay tariffs, and rendering of communication and air navigation auxiliary services.on 9 october 2009, it was announced that infraero will invest in airports abroad: infraero was invited by the government of paraguay to administer silvio pettirossi international airport in asunción and invited to participate in the privatization of ruzyně airport in prague, czech republic, among other investments.on march 4, 2010, the government of brazil announced that it would adopt the model of concession to airports.for this reason infraero would become a concessionary rather than an administrator of the airports that it currently operates.the main consequence is the fact that infraero will be able to open its capital and obtain resources necessary for infra-structure investments.another consequence is that municipal or state governments would have it easier to change concessionaries, such as the intention announced on 28 august 2009 by rosinha matheus, the mayor of campos dos goytacazes, who requested infraero the transfer of the administration of bartolomeu lysandro airport to the municipality.the minister of defense, to whom infraero was subordinate (currently it belongs to civil aviation secretary), announced being in favor of the transfer.listed airports included são paulo/guarulhos – governador andré franco montoro international airport, brasília – presidente juscelino kubitschek international airport, campinas – viracopos international airport, and later belo horizonte – tancredo neves international airport and rio de janeiro – galeão/antonio carlos jobim international airport.the plan was confirmed on may 31, 2011, and it was added that infraero would retain 49% of the shares of each privatized airport.the concession program was divided into phases, each with its own public bidding.the first phase was related to gov.aluízio alves international airport in natal.on august 22, 2011, its concession was won by the consortium inframérica, formed by the brazilian engineering group engevix (50%) and the argentinean group corporación américa (50%), which operates 52 airports in seven countries.after the signature of the contract of concession, inframérica consortium was authorized to commercially explore the facility for 25 years (with one possible five-year extension).as part of the concession agreement infraero holds no shares participation in this facility.the second phase was related to an auction that took place on february 6, 2012.in it consortium inframérica won the concession of brasília – presidente juscelino kubitschek international airport, which will be explored for a period of 25 years.on the same auction, consortium invepar-acsa composed by the brazilian investments and funds society invepar (90%) and the south african airport operator acsa (10%) won the concession for são paulo/guarulhos – governador andré franco montoro international airport and was authorized to explore the facility for 20 years.lastly, on the same day, consortium aeroportos brasil composed by the brazilian investments and funds society triunfo (45%), the engineering and investments society participações (45%), and the french airport operator egis avia (10%) won the concession for campinas – viracopos international airport, to be explored for 30 years.the third phase took place on november 22, 2013, when the brazilian government had a bidding process for: the operation of rio de janeiro–galeão international airport from 2014 until 2039 was won by the group aeroporto rio de janeiro formed by the brazilian conglomerate odebrecht (60%) and changi airport group (40%) paid brl 19 billion and won the concession. | pneumatostatics | legals | samian <tsp> pneumatostatics | assiduously | smilelessly | no related information |

iran, also known as persia and officially as the islamic republic of iran, is a country located in western asia.it is bordered by iraq and turkey to the west, by azerbaijan and armenia to the northwest, by the caspian sea and turkmenistan to the north, by afghanistan and pakistan to the east, and by the gulf of oman and the persian gulf to the south.it covers an area of 1.64 million square kilometres (0.63 million square miles), making it the 17th-largest country.iran has an estimated population of 86.8 million, making it the 17th-most populous country in the world, and the second-largest in the middle east.its largest cities, in descending order, are the capital tehran, mashhad, isfahan, karaj, shiraz, tabriz and ahvaz.the country is home to one of the world's oldest civilizations, beginning with the formation of the elamite kingdoms in the fourth millennium bc.it was first unified by the medes, an ancient iranian people, in the seventh century bc, and reached its territorial height in the sixth century bc, when cyrus the great founded the achaemenid persian empire, which became one of the largest empires in history and a superpower.the achaemenid empire fell to alexander the great in the fourth century bc and was subsequently divided into several hellenistic states.an iranian rebellion established the parthian empire in the third century bc, which was succeeded in the third century ad by the sassanid empire, a major world power for the next four centuries.arab muslims conquered the empire in the seventh century ad, which led to the islamization of iran.it subsequently became a major center of islamic culture and learning, with its art, literature, philosophy, and architecture spreading across the muslim world and beyond during the islamic golden age.over the next two centuries, a series of native iranian muslim dynasties emerged before the seljuk turks and the mongols conquered the region.in the 15th century, the native safavids re-established a unified iranian state and national identity, and converted the country to shia islam.under the reign of nader shah in the 18th century, iran presided over the most powerful military in the world, though by the 19th century, a series of conflicts with the russian empire led to significant territorial losses.the early 20th century saw the persian constitutional revolution.efforts to nationalize its fossil fuel supply from western companies led to an anglo-american coup in 1953, which resulted in greater autocratic rule under mohammad reza pahlavi and growing western political influence.he went on to launch a far-reaching series of reforms in 1963.after the iranian revolution, the current islamic republic was established in 1979 by ruhollah khomeini, who became the country's first supreme leader.the government of iran is an islamic theocracy that includes some elements of a presidential system, with the ultimate authority vested in an autocratic 'supreme leader' (rahbar); a position held by ali khamenei since khomeini's death in 1989.the iranian government is authoritarian, and has received criticism for its significant constraints and abuses against human rights and civil liberties, including several violent suppressions of mass protests, unfair elections, limited rights for women and for children as well as for its mass executions, the second largest in the world.it is also a focal point for shia islam within the middle east, countering the long-existing arab and sunni leadership in the region.since the iranian revolution, the country is widely considered to be the most determined adversary of israel and also of saudi arabia.iran is regarded as a key player in west asia's geo-politics, with its government widely condemned for pursuing an aggressive foreign policy in its neighborhood, marked by supporting numerous shia jihadist groups like hezbollah, houthis and kata'ib hezbollah. | iraq | officiallanguage | arabic | no related information |

lahore ( lə-hor; punjabi: لہور [ˈlɔ̀ːɾə̆]; urdu: لاہور [laːˈɦɔːɾ] (listen)) is the second largest city in pakistan after karachi and 26th largest in the world, with a population of over 13 million.it is situated in the north-east of the country with river ravi flowing north-west of the city.it is the capital of the province of punjab, where it is the largest city.lahore is one of pakistan's major industrial and economic hubs.it has been the historic capital and cultural centre of the wider punjab region, and is one of pakistan's most socially liberal, progressive, and cosmopolitan cities.lahore's origins reach into antiquity.the city has been inhabited for at least two millennia, although it rose to prominence in the 10th century.lahore was the capital of multiple empires throughout its history, including the hindu shahis, ghaznavids, and delhi sultanate in the medieval era.lahore reached the height of its splendor under the mughal empire between the late 16th and early 18th century and served as its capital city for many years.during this period, it was one of the largest cities in the medieval world.the city was captured by the forces of the afsharid ruler nader shah in 1739.although the mughal authority was re-established, it fell into a period of decay while being contested among the afghans and the sikhs between 1748 and 1798.lahore eventually became the capital of the sikh empire in the early 19th century, regaining some of its lost grandeur.lahore was annexed to the british raj in 1849 and became the capital of british punjab.lahore was central to the independence movements of both india and pakistan, with the city being the site of both the declaration of indian independence and the resolution calling for the establishment of pakistan.it experienced some of the worst riotings during the partition period preceding pakistan's independence.following the success of the pakistan movement and the subsequent partition of british india in 1947, lahore was declared the capital of pakistan's punjab province.lahore exerts a strong cultural influence over pakistan.a unesco city of literature and major center for pakistan's publishing industry, lahore remains the foremost center of pakistan's literary scene.the city is also a major centre of education in pakistan, with some of pakistan's leading universities based in the city.for many years, lahore was home to pakistan's film industry, lollywood, though in recent years most filming has shifted to karachi.lahore is a major centre of qawwali music.the city also hosts much of pakistan's tourist industry, with major attractions including the walled city, the famous badshahi and wazir khan mosques, as well as several sikh and sufi shrines.lahore is also home to the lahore fort and shalimar gardens, both of which are unesco world heritage sites.the city's name has been variously recorded by early muslim historians as luhawar, lūhār, and rahwar.the iranian polymath and geographer, abu rayhan al-biruni, referred to the city as luhāwar in his 11th century work, qanun, while the poet amir khusrow, who lived during the delhi sultanate period, recorded the city's name as lāhanūr.yaqut al-hamawi records the city's name as lawhūr, mentioning that it was famously known as lahāwar.persian historian firishta mentions the city as alahwar in his work, with al-ahwar being another variation.one theory suggests that lahore's name is a corruption of the word ravāwar, as r to l shifts are common in languages derived from sanskrit.ravāwar is the simplified pronunciation of the name iravatyāwar, a name possibly derived from the ravi river, known as the iravati river in the vedas. | eemis | csc | ilth | no related information |
