Scattering is a general physical process where some forms of radiation, such as light, sound, or moving particles, are forced to deviate from a straight trajectory by one or more paths due to localized non-uniformities in the medium through which they pass. In conventional use, this also includes deviation of reflected radiation from the angle predicted by the law of reflection. Reflections that undergo scattering are often called diffuse reflections and unscattered reflections are called specular (mirror-like) reflections.

Theodore Edgar McCarrick (born July 7, 1930) is a defrocked American bishop, former prelate and former cardinal of the Catholic Church. Ordained in 1958, he became auxiliary bishop of the Archdiocese of New York in 1977, then became bishop of the Metuchen, New Jersey in 1981. From 1986-2000, he was Archbishop of Newark. He became a cardinal in February 2001 and served as Archbishop of Washington, D.C. from 2001 to 2006. McCarrick retired in 2006 at the customary age of 75 but continued to be a prominent figure in the church well into the 2010s, remaining a globe-trotting diplomat on behalf of the Vatican and occasionally the U.S. State Department. McCarrick was one of the most recognized American cardinals in the world and a prolific fundraiser, and was considered a power broker in Washington, D.C., where he was connected to prominent politicians. Within the church, McCarrick was variously regarded as a moderate or progressive. McCarrick was a champion for progressive Catholics active in social justice causes, but was also "orthodox in his adherence to Roman Catholic dogma," opposing abortion and same-sex marriage and supporting the all-male priesthood. McCarrick has been accused of engaging in sexual conduct with adult male seminarians over the course of decades, and this was alleged to be an open secret in some ecclesial circles. Though multiple reports about McCarrick's conduct with adult seminarians were made to American bishops and the Vatican between 1993 and 2016, details of McCarrick's alleged sexual proclivities and allegations of sexual abuse against male minors were not publicly known until 2018. In June 2018, the Vatican removed McCarrick from public ministry because of credible sexual misconduct allegations. In July 2018, the New York Times published a story detailing a pattern of sexual abuse of male seminarians and minors. The emergence of these reports and the lack of action from the church hierarchy infuriated Catholics and sparked demands for action against church leaders believed to be responsible. McCarrick submitted his resignation from the College of Cardinals in July 2018, which was accepted by Pope Francis. Francis ordered McCarrick to a life of prayer and penance until a canonical trial could be held. After a church investigation and trial, he was found guilty of sexual crimes against adults and minors and abuse of power, and was dismissed from the clergy in February 2019. McCarrick is the most senior church official in modern times to be laicized – commonly referred to as defrocking – and is believed to be the first cardinal ever laicized for sexual misconduct.

Ezetimibe is a medication used to treat high blood cholesterol. It is less preferred than statins when used as sole treatment for high blood cholesterol. It may be used in combination with a statin if a statin alone is insufficient. It acts by decreasing cholesterol absorption in the small intestine. In the United States as of 2015, the 10-mg pill costs between US$4.84 and 7.88. In 2016 it was the 144th most prescribed medication in the United States with more than 4 million prescriptions.

Puerto Rico Highway 504 is a tertiary state highway in Ponce, Puerto Rico. The road runs north to south, and mostly along Río Chiquito in barrio Portugués Rural. Its southern terminus is at an intersection with PR-503, near PR-10 at the southern edge of barrio Portugues. The road is a mountainous two-way one-lane road and thus very difficult to navigate when traffic is coming from the opposite direction. In addition most of the road has numerous steep sharp curves and should be driven only with vehicles in top mechanical condition, preferably all-wheel drive sedans, as drivers of SUVs reportedly feel less in control of their vehicles. The road should not be driven after nightfall. The road is 6.7 kilometers long. At kilometer mark 3.0, PR-504 connects with PR-588 (also known as "Camino Pandora" or "Camino Rio Chiquito") heading west towards Sector El Hoyo. PR-588's northern terminus is at kilometer 7.2 of PR-505 in Barrio Montes Llanos.

Patani (in Malay (derived from Jawi: ڤتاني), also sometimes Patani Raya, or "Greater Patani") is a historical region in the northern part of the Malay peninsula. It includes the southern Thai provinces of Pattani, Yala (Jala), Narathiwat (Menara), and parts of Songkhla (Singgora). The Patani region has historical affinities with the Singgora (Songkhla), Ligor (Nakhon Si Thammarat), Lingga (near Surat Thani) and Kelantan sultanates dating back to the time when the Patani Kingdom was a semi-independent Malay sultanate paying tribute to the Siamese kingdoms of Sukhothai and Ayutthaya. After Ayutthaya fell to the Burmese in 1767, the Sultanate of Patani gained full independence, but under King Rama I, it again came under Siam's control. In recent years a secessionist movement has sought the establishment of a Malay Islamic state, Patani Darussalam, encompassing the three southern Thai provinces. This campaign has taken a particularly violent turn after 2001, resulting in an intractable insurgency problem across southern Thailand and the imposition of martial law.

Scattering is a general physical process where some forms of radiation, such as light, sound, or moving particles, are forced to deviate from a straight trajectory by one or more paths due to localized non-uniformities in the medium through which they pass. In conventional use, this also includes deviation of reflected radiation from the angle predicted by the law of reflection. Reflections that undergo scattering are often called diffuse reflections and unscattered reflections are called specular (mirror-like) reflections. Scattering may also refer to particle-particle collisions between molecules, atoms, electrons, photons and other particles. Examples include: cosmic ray scattering in the Earth's upper atmosphere; particle collisions inside particle accelerators; electron scattering by gas atoms in fluorescent lamps; and neutron scattering inside nuclear reactors. The types of non-uniformities which can cause scattering, sometimes known as scatterers or scattering centers, are too numerous to list, but a small sample includes particles, bubbles, droplets, density fluctuations in fluids, crystallites in polycrystalline solids, defects in monocrystalline solids, surface roughness, cells in organisms, and textile fibers in clothing. The effects of such features on the path of almost any type of propagating wave or moving particle can be described in the framework of scattering theory. Some areas where scattering and scattering theory are significant include radar sensing, medical ultrasound, semiconductor wafer inspection, polymerization process monitoring, acoustic tiling, free-space communications and computer-generated imagery. Particle-particle scattering theory is important in areas such as particle physics, atomic, molecular, and optical physics, nuclear physics and astrophysics.

ABC notation is a shorthand form of musical letter notation. In basic form it uses the letters A through G to represent the given notes, with other elements used to place added value on these – sharp, flat, the length of the note, key, ornamentation. Later, with computers becoming a major means of communication, others saw the possibilities of using this form of notation as an ASCII code that could facilitate the sharing of music online, also adding a new and simple language for software developers. In this later form it remains a language for notating music using the ASCII character set. The earlier ABC notation was built on, standardized, and changed to better fit the keyboard and an ASCII character set by Chris Walshaw, with the help and input of others. Although now re-packaged in this

Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker (also known as Star Wars: Episode IX - The Rise of Skywalker) is an upcoming American epic space-opera film produced, co-written and directed by J. J. Abrams. It will be the third installment of the Star Wars sequel trilogy, following The Force Awakens (2015) and The Last Jedi (2017), and as such it will be the final episode of the Skywalker saga. The film was produced by Lucasfilm and Bad Robot Productions and is scheduled to be distributed by Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures. The Rise of Skywalker is part of a new trilogy of films announced after Disney's acquisition of Lucasfilm in October 2012. Colin Trevorrow was announced as the film's director in mid-2015, but left the project by late 2017 due to creative differences. He was replaced by Abrams, who previously directed The Force Awakens. Most of the cast of the previous two movies reprise their roles, and Billy Dee Williams and Ian McDiarmid return to the franchise onscreen for the first time since 1983's Return of the Jedi and 2005's Revenge of the Sith, respectively. Principal photography began in August 2018 at Pinewood Studios near London and wrapped on February 15, 2019. The Rise of Skywalker is scheduled to be released in the United States on December 20, 2019.

In this later form it remains a language for notating music using the ASCII character set. The earlier ABC notation was built on, standardized, and changed to better fit the keyboard and an ASCII character set by Chris Walshaw, with the help and input of others. Although now re-packaged in this form, the original ease of writing and reading, for memory jogs and for sharing tunes with others on a scrap of paper or a beer coaster remains, a simple and accessible form of music notation, not unlike others, such as tablature and solfège. Originally designed for use with folk and traditional tunes of Western European origin, e.g., English, Irish, Scottish, which are typically single-voice melodies that can be written on a single staff in standard notation, the work of Chris Walshaw and others has opened this up with an increased list of characters and headers in a syntax that can also support metadata for each tune. ABC notation being ASCII-based, any text editor can be used to edit the music. Even so, there are now many ABC notation software packages available that offer a wide variety of features, including the ability to read and process ABC notation into MIDI files and as standard "dotted" notation. Such software is readily available for most computer systems, including Microsoft Windows, Unix/Linux, Macintosh, Palm OS, and web-based. Later third-party software packages have provided direct output, bypassing the TeX typesetter, and have extended the syntax to support lyrics aligned with notes, multi-voice and multi-staff notation, tablature, and MIDI.

The 2018 Kivu Ebola outbreak began on 1 August 2018, when it was confirmed that four cases had tested positive for Ebola virus in the eastern region of Kivu in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC). The Kivu outbreak included Ituri Province, after the first case was confirmed on 13 August. This outbreak started just days after the end of the outbreak in Équateur province. The affected province and general area are currently undergoing a military conflict, which is hindering treatment and prevention efforts. The World Health Organization's Deputy Director-General for Emergency Preparedness and Response has described the combination of military conflict and civilian distress as a potential "perfect storm" that could lead to a rapid worsening of the outbreak. Due to the deteriorating situation in North Kivu and surrounding areas the World Health Organization, on 27 September, raised the risk assessment at the national and regional level from "high" to "very high". On 3 October, the United Nations Security Council stressed that all armed hostility should come to a stop in the DRC, to better fight the ongoing Ebola virus disease (EVD) outbreak. For the week ending 14 October, DRC indicated 33 cases of EVD were identified, of which 24 died, in one week. On 9 November, at 319 probable and confirmed cases (not counting suspected cases) the 2018 North Kivu and Ituri province Ebola virus outbreak became the biggest in the DRC's history. By 30 November, the 2018 Kivu Ebola outbreak had become the second biggest EVD outbreak in recorded history, behind only the 2013–2016 West Africa epidemic. On 13 February 2019, the total cases (confirmed, probable and suspected) equalled 1,000 individuals in the Democratic Republic of the Congo; it is a cases count ( ≥ 1,000) for a single country not seen since the 2013 West Africa Epidemic, in Liberia, Guinea and Sierra Leone.
