Scientists have seen it in exactly one place: Corbett's Gap in Knuckles Hills, between 1100 and 1400 meters above sea level.
The adult male frog is 30.2 – 31.2 mm long from nose to rear end and the adult female frog is 30.4 – 41.6 mm long. The skin of the frog's back is green in color with blank marks. The sides of the frog are gray-green in color. There is a brown mark between the eyes. Parts of the mouth are white with brown marks. Some parts of the back legs are green in color.
There are fewer of this frog than there were in the past. Scientists say that this is because human beings cut down forests to make towns and cities and to get wood to build with.

1065417 | https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antique | Antique | An antique (; 'old', 'ancient') is an item thought of as having value because of its looks or historical importance, and often defined as at least 100 years old (or an older limit), but the term may be used to describe anything that is old. An antique is usually an item that is collected or wanted because of its age, beauty, rarity, condition, job, personal emotional connection, and/or other unique features. It is an object that represents a previous era or time period in human history. Vintage and collectible are used to describe items that are old but do not meet the 100-year mark.
Antiques are normally objects of the decorative arts that show some skill of craftsmanship, collectability, or an attention to design, such as a desk or an early car. They are bought at antiques shops, estate sales, auction houses, online auctions, and other venues, or is passed down. Antiques sellers often are a member of national trade associations, many of which belong to CINOA, a confederation of art and antique associations across 21 countries that represents 5,000 sellers.
Definition
The usual definition of antique is a collectible object such as a piece of furniture or work of art that has more value because of its age, but it may be different depending on the item, its source, the year of its creation, and other reasons. The customary definition of antique requires that an item should be at least 100 years old and in original condition. (Motor vehicles are an exception to this rule, with some definitions needing an automobile to be as little as 25 years old to be called an antique.)
In the United States, the 1930 Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act defined antiques as, "...works (things that are created) of art (except rugs and carpets made after 1700), collections in illustration of the progress of the arts, works in bronze, marble, terra cotta, parian, pottery, or porcelain, artistic antiquities and objects of ornamental character or educational value which shall have been produced prior to the year 1830." 1830 was thought to be the beginning of mass production in the United States. These definitions were made to allow people of that time to tell between real antique pieces, vintage items, and collectible objects.
In 1979, the British art reviewer Edward Lucie-Smith wrote that "Antique-dealers ... sometimes insist that nothing is antique which was made after 1830, although the barrier has been broken down in recent years by the enthusiasm of collectors for Art Nouveau and Art Deco.
The other term, antiquities, is used to refer to the remains of ancient art and everyday items from antiquity, which themselves are often archaeological artifacts. An antiquarian is a person who collects and studies antiquities or things of the past.
China
Traditionally, Chinese antiques are marked by a red seal, known as a 'chop', put on by an owner. Experts can tell previous owners of an antique by reading the chops. The pre-revolution Chinese government tried to help collectors of Chinese antiques by requiring their Department of Antiquities to give a governmental chop on the bottom of a Chinese antique. This chop is visible as a piece of red sealing wax that bears the government chop to verify the date of the antique. The government of the People's Republic of China has its own definitions of what it thinks is antique". As of the Cultural Revolution and China's opening trade to other countries, the government has tried to protect the definition of a Chinese antique.
Antiquing
Antiquing is the act of buying, telling if an antique is real, lowering prices, or buying antiques for cheap. People buy items for personal use, gifts, or to sell again. Sources for antiquing include garage sales and yard sales, estate sales, resort towns, antique districts, collectives, and international auction houses.
Note that antiquing also means the craft of making an object look antique through distressing or using antique-looking paints. Often, individuals get confused between these handmade vintage items and true antiques. People who are going to sell antiques and who don't know of the differences may find themselves paying a big amount of money for something that would have little value if re-sold.
Furniture
Antique furniture is a popular area of antiques because furniture has can be used and has value. Many collectors use antique furniture pieces in their homes, and care for them with the hope that the value of these items will remain same or grow. This is different to buying new furniture, which typically decreases the value right after it is purchased.
Antique furniture includes dining tables, chairs, bureaus, chests etc. The most common woods are mahogany, oak, pine, walnut, and rosewood. Chinese antique furniture is often made with elm, a wood common to many regions in Asia. Each wood has a different grain and color. Many modern pieces of furniture use laminate or wood veneer to get the same effect. There are many different styles of antique furniture depending on when and where it was made. Some examples of stylistic periods are: Arts & Crafts, Georgian, Regency, and Victorian.
An important part of some antique furniture is its hardware, the style of which is different from one period to another. For example, Victorian era hardware is different from other period hardware and is thought of to be aesthetically defined; this is the reason for its popularity.

He incorporated the territory into the Captaincy General of Guatemala as a province of New Spain in 1524. For the next 300 years, Costa Rica was a colony of Spain. As a result, Costa Rica's culture has been greatly influenced by the culture of Spain. During this period, Costa Rica remained sparsely developed and impoverished.

1065667 | https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Italian%20Somalia | Italian Somalia | Italian Somalia, located in the eastern part of Africa, was a territory under Italian colonial rule for several decades. This region corresponds largely to what is known today as the Republic of Somalia. Italy began its colonization efforts in the late 19th century, gaining control of the area after signing treaties with local leaders and establishing settlements along the Somali coast.
During the period of Italian colonization, which lasted until the mid-20th century, significant changes occurred in Italian Somalia. The Italians introduced infrastructure development projects, including the construction of roads, schools, hospitals, and other public facilities. They also implemented administrative systems and influenced aspects of local culture, bringing Italian customs, language, and governance structures to the region.
However, this colonization was met with resistance from the indigenous Somali population. Many Somalis opposed the foreign rule imposed by the Italians and fought against their presence in various ways. There were several instances of unrest and uprisings as Somalis sought independence and autonomy from Italian control.
Italian Somalia faced various challenges during this time, including economic difficulties and environmental issues such as droughts. These challenges exacerbated tensions between the local population and the Italian authorities, leading to conflicts and opposition movements.
One notable conflict was the Shifta War in the 1960s, a prolonged conflict between Somali rebels and the Italian administration. This conflict contributed to the eventual withdrawal of Italian colonial rule from the region.
In 1960, Italian Somalia gained independence and merged with British Somaliland to form the newly independent nation of Somalia. This marked the end of Italian colonial presence in the area, and Somalia emerged as a unified country with hopes of self-governance and nation-building.
The legacy of Italian Somalia persists in present-day Somalia. While Italian colonial rule brought some infrastructural developments and cultural influences, it also left a complicated history of tensions, conflicts, and struggles for independence. The impacts of colonization continue to shape the social, political, and economic landscape of Somalia, influencing its ongoing challenges and efforts towards development and stability. |

Doom Dance
The "Doom Dance" as quoted by many content creators, is the mastering of the gameplay loop of the modern doom games.
To put it simply, the Doom Dance is as follows for the following DooM games:
Doom Eternal
The Doom Dance for Doom Eternal is simple
Stay in the air as long as possible
Move in a circular fashion
Quick switching is the key to optimal damage output
For the DLCs and the Horde mode, make use of Revenants and Mancubus for hammer charges (2 needed for DLC, and 4 for Horde mode.)
And "Yeet Hook" for movement and not just to pull yourself in for the kill.
Make sure to use glory kills or chainsaw with the flame belch to get maximum health and shields at once.
Doom 2016
The Doom 2016 Dance is a little different, as the gameplay mechanics are different, and I (nnxm) don't have a lot of experience with it, but I'll try and explain it as well as the Eternal Dance.
Use the environment to your advantage
Move in a circular fashion, just like Eternal
Quick switching is not as important, you may want to keep using the Super Shotgun or the Rocket Launcher, but a good combo I use is SSG + Rocket Launcher or SSG + Gauss Cannon (SSG is the Super Shotgun, and it is a good, well rounded weapon to use in the game)
Use the chainsaw for ammo frequently, and try not to waste it on heavy/super heavy demons.
Routes aren't as clear as they are in Eternal, so when you are lost (especially in the Argent Energy Tower mission) look up play-throughs of missions to learn where to go.
and for the love of god... don't stand still. |

It was started in 2011. The dam is in the Benishangul-Gumuz Region of Ethiopia, about 14 km (9 mi) east of the border with Sudan.
The primary purpose of the dam is electricity production to relieve Ethiopia's acute energy shortage and for electricity export to neighbouring countries. With a planned installed capacity of 5.15 gigawatts, the dam will be the largest hydroelectric power plant in Africa when completed, as well as among the 20 largest in the world. Filling the dam's reservoir could reduce Nile flows by as much as 25% .
First phase of filling the reservoir began in July 2020 and in August 2020 water level increased to 540 meters (40 meters higher than the bottom of the river which is 500 meters above sea level). The second phase of filling was completed on 19 July 2021, with water levels increased to around 575 meters. The third filling was completed on 12 August 2022 to a level of 600 metres (2,000 ft). The fourth filling was completed on 11 September 2023 with water levels at around 625 meters. Actual water level (1 September 2023) is at around 620 meters and was measured using images from the Sentinel satellite. It will take between 4 and 7 years to fill with water, depending on hydrologic conditions during the filling period.
On 20 February 2022, the dam produced electricity for the first time, delivering it to the grid at a rate of 375 MW. A second 375 MW turbine was commissioned in August 2022.

1065672 | https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter%20II%20of%20Russia | Peter II of Russia | Peter II Alexeyevich (23 October 1715 – 30 January 1730) was Emperor of Russia from 1727 until his death in 1730. He was the son of Tsarevich Alexei Petrovich and Charlotte Christine of Brunswick-Lüneburg. After Catherine I's death. Alexander Menshikov and Prince Aleksey Dolgorukov influenced Peter, and this led to problems in running the country and making serfdom stronger. Peter's time as ruler was marked by confusion and not paying enough attention to important matters. Even though he was supposed to marry Ekaterina Dolgorukova, but he got sick with smallpox and died before the wedding. This made him the last male member of the House of Romanov.
Early life
Peter was born in Saint Petersburg on 23 October 1715. His father was Tsarevich Alexei Petrovich and mother was Charlotte Christine of Brunswick-Lüneburg, who had connections to European royalty. He was a cousin of Empress Maria Theresa of Austria.
When Peter was ten days old, his mother died. His father, Alexei, was accused of treason by Peter the Great and died in prison in 1718. So, Peter and his sister Natalya, who were only three and four years old, became orphans. Their grandfather didn't care about raising them because he disliked their father. Peter was kept in strict isolation since childhood.
Peter's early teachers were the wives of a tailor and a vintner, and a sailor named Norman taught him navigation. As he got older, a Hungarian noble named Janos (Ivan) Zeikin (Zékány), took care of his education.
Peter the Great died in 1725, and Catherine I succeeded him. Minister Menshikov, who helped Catherine become empress, replaced Peter's teachers with Count Ostermann. Ostermann's education plan included history, geography, math, and foreign languages, but Peter wasn't interested. He preferred hunting and feasting.
When Catherine I died in 1727, it became clear that Peter, as Peter the Great's grandson, couldn't be kept from his inheritance much longer. Most Russians and three-quarters of the nobility supported him. The Holy Roman Emperor Charles VI, who was married to Peter's mother's sister, urged Peter's claims. With Menshikov's efforts, Peter was named Catherine's heir, even though she had two daughters. The documentation also specified Peter's engagement to Menshikov's daughter Maria.
Reign
After Catherine died in May 1727, Peter II became emperor. Menshikov, a powerful figure, took control of Peter and his actions. For a few months, Menshikov was so feared and obeyed that even Peter the Great wasn't like that, says the Saxon ambassador. Menshikov became arrogant, issuing orders to the Emperor and taking gifts back. When Peter protested, Menshikov got sick, and his enemies used this chance. Under Ostermann and the Dolgorukovs' influence, Peter stripped Menshikov of his rank from September 1727, and sent him to Siberia. The engagement with Menshikov's daughter was also canceled.
The Senate, the Privy Council, and the guards pledged allegiance. Mathematician Christian Goldbach became Peter II's tutor, replacing Menshikov's choice, Andrey Osterman.
Peter II was smart but stubborn, like his grandfather. Unlike Peter the Great, he didn't want to learn to rule. Being young, he struggled to manage public affairs and rarely attended the Supreme Privy Council. This frustrated his subjects, and officials hesitated to make important decisions. The Russian fleet suffered, but Peter II didn't care. He made serfdom stricter by not allowing serfs to volunteer for military service and escape their status.
After Menshikov fell, Prince Aleksey Dolgorukov and his son Ivan became the Emperor's favorites. Ivan led Peter II into a reckless lifestyle—feasting, playing cards, and spending time with women. Peter II soon became addicted to alcohol.
The coronation of Peter II took place in Moscow on 9 January 1728, but he didn't pay much attention to running the country. Foreign witnesses said Russia was in a terrible mess with no one getting paid, and people were stealing. Moving the court back to Moscow in 1728 upset Saint Petersburg, a city Peter the Great worked hard to develop.
Peter II visited Saint Petersburg sometimes but mostly lived a carefree life, influenced by the Dolgorukovs. He became interested in Ekaterina Dolgorukova and got engaged to her, even though he wasn't really interested. The wedding was planned for 30 January 1730.
In December 1729, Peter II got seriously ill, and his condition worsened after a feast on 17 January 1730. He was diagnosed with smallpox, and in his delirium, he wanted to visit his sister who had already died. He died on January 30, the day he was supposed to marry Ekaterina Dolgorukova. He was buried in Moscow's Cathedral of the Archangel, an honor given to only a few Russian monarchs.
With Peter's death, the Romanov dynasty's direct male ended. Anna Ivanovna, daughter of Peter the Great's half-brother, became emperor.

1065712 | https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pseudophilautus%20popularis | Pseudophilautus popularis | The common shrub frog (Pseudophilautus popularis) is a frog. It lives in Sri Lanka. Scientists have seen it between 0 and 1067 meters above sea level.
The adult male frog is about 17.7 – 21.3 mm long in from nose to rear end and the adult female frog is 23.0 – 25.6 mm long when her body is full of eggs. The top of the frog's head and back are brown in color. The sides of the body are dark brown or black in color with some white or light blue marks. The area near where the back legs meet the body is gray-brown in color. The area around the eardrum has blue dots. The legs are brown with darker brown stripes across. The belly is gray-brown in color. The bottoms of the back legs are yellow in color. The webbed skin on the feet is yellow in color.
There are fewer of this frog than there were in the past. Scientists say that this is because human beings cut down forests to make towns and cities and because pollution, chemicals that make crops grow, and chemicals that kill pests can also kill the frog. Scientists have seen that one of the places where the frog lives, Bellanwila-Attidiya sanctuary, is a protected park.

1065715 | https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Health%20in%20Switzerland | Health in Switzerland | In 2015, Switzerland had the lowest mortality rate in Europe, at 331 per 100,000 population. It had the highest rate of death from drug use at 3 per 100,000. Life expectancy in 2013 was 80.5 years for men and 84.8 years for women. There are 220,000 regular consumers of cannabis. Mental health problems are common, affecting about a fifth of the population.
Goitre and associated deaf-muteism was widespread in Switzerland until the 1920s. In 1921 30% of 19-year-old Swiss conscripts had a goitre. In Bern, 94% of schoolchildren had some swelling of the neck and almost 70% had a goitre. About 10% of children were born with what was then known as cretinism. They grew little more than a metre tall, and had compressed features, thick skin, thin hair and distended bellies. They could not hear or speak and were profoundly brain-damaged. In 1883 a survey of goitre found rates were low in the Jura mountains and in the southern canton of Ticino, but very high in the rest of the country. In some villages one third of the people were deaf. Dr Heinrich Hunziker, a GP in Adliswil, discovered the cause in 1914 - a lack of iodine. In the last ice age, a permanent ice sheet formed over the Alps. It thawed and refroze in stages, and with every thaw, meltwater washed the iodine out of the soil. When iodised salt was introduced, first in the canton of Appenzell Ausserrhoden in 1922, goitre and associated problems disappeared. Since 1930, no babies have been born in Switzerland with congenital iodine deficiency syndrome.

1065722 | https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ayat%20Al-Qurmezi | Ayat Al-Qurmezi | Ayat Hassan Mohammed Al-Qurmezi (Arabic: آيات حسن محمد القرمزي; also Al-Qormezi, al-Ghermezi; born 1 January 1991) is a Bahraini Poet, Student and Activist. Al-Qurmezi became famous in Bahrain and around the world when she recited a poem during the 2011 Bahrain Uprising, criticizing the government's policies to a gathering of pro-democracy protesters at the Pearl Roundabout. Her poem spread widely on social media. But after this, both Ayat and her family faced harassment (both online and offline) and threats of violence. In 2015, she won the Student Peace Prize for "her unwavering struggle for democracy and human rights in Bahrain".
Biography
Ayat Al-Qurmezi was born on 1 January, 1991, in the town of Sanad, Bahrain. She is a notable poet and activist known for her outspokenness and involvement in the pro-democracy movement in Bahrain during the 2011 Bahrain Uprising. She has 4 brothers. In the 1990s her father and 2 of her brothers had also been imprisoned for speaking about political reforms.
She gained widespread attention for her poetry recitations criticizing the government particularly King Hamad and advocating for political reform during the Arab Spring protests in Bahrain in 2011. Her powerful verses resonated with many seeking social and political change in the country. Her house address was leaked openly through local news channels (so that pro-government supporters attacked her) making her go into a hideout for some days. On 6 March 2011, she read a poem to the crowd at Pearl Roundabout which criticized King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa. One of the lines from her poem, translates to: "We are the people who will kill humiliation and assassinate misery. Don't you hear their cries? Don't you hear their screams?"
Al-Qurmezi's activism and expressive poetry led to her arrest in March 2011, sparking international concern over her detention and the crackdown on dissent in Bahrain. The arrest was done by Bahrain police hiding their face with masks and storming the house of Ayat's family at night. When they didn't find Ayat their, they held her father at gunpoint and told the family to tell where Ayat was hiding. Her mother eventually disclosed the location, that she was at her cousin's house. The police went there and after beating her several times, arrested her. She was sentenced to one year in prison for charges related to her participation in protests and reciting poems critical of King Hamad.
Her imprisonment and later torture in prison drew widespread condemnation from human rights organizations such as Amnesty International and activists globally, with many advocating for her release and highlighting her case as representative of the broader struggle for freedom of expression in Bahrain. Because of the international pressure, she was released after 3 months and 16 days.
Despite facing hardships, Ayat Al-Qurmezi's resilience and courage in using her poetry as a means of activism have left a lasting impact, symbolizing the ongoing fight for human rights and freedom of speech in Bahrain. Her work continues to inspire others in advocating for social and political change.

1065765 | https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/United%20Democratic%20Party%20%28Belize%29 | United Democratic Party (Belize) | The United Democratic Party (UDP) is one of the two major political parties in Belize. It is currently the main opposition party. It lost the 2020 Belizean general election, after previously holding the government for three terms. Founded as a centre-right conservative party, the UDP is led by Shyne Barrow.
The party had been in power since 7 February 2008. It attempted to win a fourth consecutive general election. UDP Leader and Prime Minister, Dean Barrow stated he would step down from both positions on 2 November 2020, after the new Prime Minister of Belize has been officially sworn-in by Govonor-General, Colville Young. The UDP scheduled a May 2019 convention and election, but after Barrow’s cabinet urged him to stay on as Prime Minister and Leader of the UDP, he pushed back that date in January 2019 to February 2020. On 10 August 2019, The UDP’s National Party Council met and set the date of the UDP’s leadership convention and election on 9 February 2019. The venue will be at the Belize Civic Centre, according to the party organ, The Guardian. Deputy Prime Minister of Belize, Patrick Faber and Minister of National Security and Defence, John Saldivar contested the position of UDP Leader. Minister of Health, Pablo Marin contested the position of Deputy Leader. Minister of Natural Resources, Hugo Patt also contested for Deputy Leader. Patt and Minister of Foreign Affairs, Wilfred Elrington were mentioned as possible candidates to contest the position of UDP Leader. However, both declined in June 2018. On 5 June 2019, Belize Breaking News (BBN) published an article stating that the UDP has a high chance of capitalising and making history by wining a fourth consecutive term come 2020, given the results of the 2019 Belizean territorial dispute referendum went in the favour of the UDP. The UDP was long campaigning for an “Yes” vote to bring Guatemala’s claim to the International Court of Justice (ICJ), while the PUP eyed the “No” vote while some of its Politicians still supported “Yes” as they thought that was the right thing to do. A victory in the next election would be monumental as the party navigates new Leadership with the departure of several senior members. The UDP Cabinet, though marred by waves of scandal and revelations of systemic corruption across Government departments throughout its 11-year reign, has withered the political storms.

It is currently the governing party of Belize after success in the 2020 Belizean general election. It won a majority of 26 seats out of 31 in the Belizean House of Representatives. It is a centre-left Christian democratic party. The party leader is Johnny Briceño, who is the Prime Minister of Belize.
Despite gains in Belize City in the 2015 election, most notably Kareem Musa’s upset win over Belize City Mayor, Darrell Bradley in the Caribbean Shores constituency, it remained at 11 seats overall thanks to losses in the Cayo and Corozal Districts. The PUP ran in 2020 with Johnny Briceño as it's Leader. Francis Fonseca, who led the party during the past two general elections, resigned from leadership soon after the party’s 2015 loss.
