Airfone was an air-ground radiotelephone service developed by MCI founder John D. Goeken, and operated under the names Airfone, GTE Airfone and Verizon. Airfone allowed passengers to make telephone calls (later including data modem service) in-flight. Airfone handsets were often located in the middle airliner seatbacks, with two handsets per row for 6-wide coach seating configurations, and more or less depending on the aircraft layout and fare class. First class cabins typically had one handset per seat. Some planes had one or more bulkhead mounted phone stations with cordless handsets that the passengers could use, instead of the multiple wired handsets. Airfone phone calls were usually quite expensive compared to ground-based telephone calls, costing $3.99 per call and $4.99 per minute in 2006.
The original Airfone main office and network operations center are located at 2809 Butterfield Rd, Oak Brook, Illinois. The network operations center remains at this location.

A pressure ridge develops in an ice cover as a result of a stress regime established within the plane of the ice. Within sea ice expanses, pressure ridges originate from the interaction between floes, as they collide with each other. Currents and winds are the main driving forces, but the latter are particularly effective when they have a predominant direction. Pressure ridges are made up of angular ice blocks of various sizes that pile up on the floes. The part of the ridge that is above the water surface is known as the sail; that below it as the keel. Pressure ridges are the thickest sea ice features and account for about one-half of the total sea ice volume. Stamukhi are pressure ridges that are grounded and that result from the interaction between fast ice and the drifting pack ice.
A pressure ridge sometimes referred to as a tumulus (or tumuli in plural form) is created in an active lava flow. Formation occurs when the outer edges and surfaces of the lava flow begin to harden. If the advancing lava underneath becomes restricted it may push up on the hardened crust, tilting it outward. Inflation also takes place and is a process where the plastic layer of lava underneath expands as it cools and small crystals form. The end result is a raised mound of hardened lava rock, usually a relatively narrow but long ridge. Tension cracks form on the surface of pressure ridges and run along the axis of elongated ridges, and at both edges of broader ridges, sometimes referred to as pressure plateaus. Sometimes, along the edges of a pressure ridge, the tension crack can be large enough to create a liftup cave. Other caves can form inside pressure ridges when the lava vacates leaving an inflationary cave.
Pressure ridge may refer to:
- Pressure ridge (ice): Results from the interaction between expanses of sea ice.
- Pressure ridge (lava): Surfaces pushed up in lava flows

Kadro was an influential leftist magazine published in Turkey between 1932 and 1934.
The magazine believed that a Turkish revolution would occur in two stages: the battle to achieve political sovereignty, achieved in the Turkish War of Independence, and an ongoing battle to "liberate" the economy and society from "imperialist" influence. To this end, the Kadro theorists borrowed heavily from Marxist theory, particularly elements of Soviet central planning, and also to a limited extent from south-west European fascism. Importantly, the Kadro theorists never accepted either of these ideologies, believing that they were creating a third (non-capitalist, non-socialist) development theory that would be essentially Turkish.
The theorists advocated absolute state control of the economy ( statism , a key element of Kemalist ideology), believing that Turkey could overcome the problem of class conflict if the state never developed a middle and upper class. If the state was in charge of development, class conflict would not arise, as capital would be in the hands of the state, not specific classes.
Kadro was important as it sought to provide Kemalist Turkey with a solid theoretical underpinning. Although Kadro policies were never absolutely adapted, Turkey did pursue a state-centered development strategy.
Although supportive of the government, the magazine was shut down in 1934: economically liberal figures in the government (like Celal Bayar) worked against the Kadro theories, which they found far too leftist.
Kadro translates from Turkish as "cadre" (referring to the "cadre" of intellectuals who were to be the vanguard of the permanent Turkish revolution).

A bindle is the bag, sack, or carrying device stereotypically used by the American sub-culture of hobos. A bindlestiff was another name for a hobo who carried a bindle.
In modern popular culture the bindle is portrayed as a stick with cloth or a blanket tied around one end for carrying items, with the entire array being carried over the shoulder, allowing for force to be transferred to the shoulder and so leading to a more long lasting and comfortable grip, especially with larger heavier loads. Particularly in cartoons, the bindles' sacks usually have a polka-dotted or bandanna design. However, in actual use the bindle can take many forms.
One example of the stick-type bindle can be seen in the illustration entitled The Runaway created by Norman Rockwell which appears on the cover of the September 20, 1958, edition of The Saturday Evening Post.
Though bindles are rarely used anymore, they are still widely seen in popular culture as a prevalent anachronism.
The term bindle may descend from the German/ Yiddish word Bündel, meaning something wrapped up in a blanket and bound by cord for carrying (cf. originally Middle Dutch "bundle), or have arisen as a portmanteau of "bind" and "spindle".
More recently, the term has come to be used to define packages of illegal drugs stored by large scale drug dealers.

Eranyak was a Princess from the Arsacid dynasty of Armenia who lived in the 4th century.
Eranyak was the daughter of the Roman Client King of Armenia, Tiran (Tigranes VII) who reigned from 339 until 350 by an unnamed wife and was the sister of her father's successor, Arsaces II (Arshak II). Little is known on the life of Eranyak.
At some point Tiran arranged for his daughter to marry an Armenian prince from the Bagratuni Dynasty called Tiridates who is also known as Trdat. Tiridates was the son of Sembatuhi, as his maternal grandfather was the Great Sembat. Tiridates in character was brave and bold, but was short and of a pitiable appearance.
When Eranyak and Tiridates married each other, Eranyak through marriage she was a relation of the Bagratuni dynasty and Tiridates through marriage was a relation of the Arsacid dynasty. Despite their royal lineage and aristocrat origins, Eranyak and Tiridates had an unhappy marriage.
Eranyak hated Tiridates. She treated her husband with contempt and complained a woman of her status was forced to co-habit with a man of disagreeable countenance and inglorious descent. For Tiridates it reached a point, that he grew so angry that one day, he violent beat Eranyak, cut off her blond hair, tore out the ringlets and ordered her to be removed from their apartment. After Eranyak was removed from their place of residence, Tiridates left Armenia and headed to Media. When Tiridates had arrived in Sewniq, he heard the news of the death of his father-in-law and remained there upon receiving the news. After that moment, not much more is known on Eranyak and Tiridates.

In cryptography, SHARK is a block cipher identified as one of the predecessors of Rijndael (the Advanced Encryption Standard).
SHARK has a 64-bit block size and a 128-bit key size. It is a six round SP-network which alternates a key mixing stage with linear and non-linear transformation layers. The linear transformation uses an MDS matrix representing a Reed-Solomon error correcting code in order to guarantee good diffusion. The nonlinear layer is composed of eight 8×8-bit S-boxes based on the function F(x) = x over GF(2).
Five rounds of a modified version of SHARK can be broken using an interpolation attack (Jakobsen and Knudsen, 1997).

Anthemius ( Latin: Procopius Anthemius Augustus) (c. 420 – 11 July 472) was Western Roman Emperor from 467 to 472.
Perhaps the last capable Western Roman Emperor, Anthemius attempted to solve the two primary military challenges facing the remains of the Western Roman Empire: the resurgent Visigoths, under Euric, whose domain straddled the Pyrenees; and the unvanquished Vandals, under Geiseric, in undisputed control of North Africa. Anthemius was killed by Ricimer, his own general of Gothic descent, who contested power with him.

Al-Musheirifa is an Arab village in Israel's Haifa District. The village is located in the Wadi Ara area of the northern Triangle, northeast of Umm al-Fahm. Since 1996, it has been under the jurisdiction of the Ma'ale Iron local council. In the 2008 census Musheirifa's population was counted with Bayada and together their population was 3,100, all of whom are Muslim. The village is divided into four neighborhoods: Ighbarieh, El-Manshya, Jabbarin, and the Old Village. The inhabitants are largely members of the Ighbarieh clan, which inhabits the upper parts of the village, and the Jabbarin clan, which inhabit the lower parts. Bayada was a neighborhood of the village in the past but split from it and became a new village. The village has poor infrastructure and, like many other villages in the Wadi Ara region, lacks many social institutions and recreational areas.
Choanocytes (also known as "collar cells") are cells that line the interior of asconoid, syconoid and leuconoid body type sponges that contain a central flagellum, or undulipodia, surrounded by a collar of microvilli which are connected by a thin membrane. They make up Choanoderm, a type of cell layer found in sponges. The cell has the closest resemblance to the choanoflagellates which are the closest related single celled protists to the animal kingdom (metazoans). The flagellae beat regularly, creating a water flow across the microvilli which can then filter nutrients from the water taken from the collar of the sponge. Food particles are then phagocytosed by the cell.
On the Prowl is the ninth studio album of Japanese heavy metal band Loudness. It is also their second and last album with American vocalist Mike Vescera, before his leaving to join Yngwie Malmsteen's band for the album The Seventh Sign.

On the Prowl may refer to:
- On the Prowl (album), an album by Japanese band Loudness
- On the Prowl (EP), an EP by Australian band Operator Please
- On the Prowl (film series), a series of pornographic films starring Jamie Gillis
On the Prowl is the first EP by the Australian band Operator Please. It was originally recorded by Roulf Commandeur in his home studio Musical Solutions, and limited to a release of about 300 handmade copies. It is currently out of print.
" Just a Song About Ping Pong" has been remixed and has received more fame. "Terminal Disease" has also been remixed and included on Yes Yes Vindictive.

On the Prowl is a series of pornographic videos filmed by Jamie Gillis in the late 1980s and early 1990s. The video series is considered to be a watershed entry in the pro-amateur field and is credited as one of the first gonzo videos ever shot. The series is the basis for one of the scenes in the 1997 film Boogie Nights. The basis of the films centered on Gillis approaching random men with the invitation of free sex with a professional pornographic actress or paid escort. Filming locations would range from limousines to adult bookstores and the series was noted for its degradation of the women filmed during the series, who would take part in various elements such as golden showers, analingus, and occasionally physical violence.
The first video, shot in 1989, was set in North Beach, San Francisco and starred Gillis along with adult film actress Rene Morgan (sometimes spelled as Renee Morgan) and cameraman Duck Dumont. On the Prowl 1 was shot in one night and was sold for $20, which Gillis claimed was twice what the normal asking price was for other adult tapes. The first film received some attention for one of the male performers, a NAVY sailor that was placed in the brig and threatened with a military discharge from service.
Of the film series' depiction in the Boogie Nights series, Gillis was unhappy and dismissive, saying that he felt that they "took it and made it into a very depressing and kind of ugly thing .... I mean, I've done a lot of sleazy movies and things in my life, but I never felt dirtier than after I saw Boogie Nights. I said, Oh my god, they're taking my little joy, my little treasure, and shitting on it, making it ugly and stupid and violent."

Breema is a form of bodywork that has been described as a cross between partner yoga and Thai massage. The techniques may be utilized in either a practitioner-recipient mode or solo as "Self-Breema." The practice is intended to bring body and mind together, and no strong exertions or muscular contortions are involved. Breema utilizes "Nine Principles of Harmony" which frame the practice, and are applicable to every situation in life. These principles are said to assist with mindfulness in daily life.
There are over 300 exact Breema sequences, which are taught at the Breema Center in Oakland, CA, as well as by Certified Instructors.
