Since July 6, 2018, the People's Republic of China and the United States of America have been engaged in a trade war involving the mutual placement of tariffs. The President of the United States, Donald Trump, has exercised authority granted by Congress in the Trade Act of 1974, to unilaterally impose tariffs on $250 billion of Chinese goods after the Office of the United States Trade Representative determined China's trade practices were unfairly limiting U.S. exports. China’s Ministry of Commerce said in a statement that the United States "has launched the biggest trade war in economic history so far" and imposed retaliatory tariffs on U.S. goods of a similar value. The U.S. claims that Chinese policies put U.S. patent holders at a disadvantage in Chinese markets by encouraging foreign companies to engage in joint ventures with Chinese companies. This gives Chinese companies access and permission to use, improve, copy or illegally develop their technologies. The Trump administration views the Made in China 2025 industrialization plan as a threat to the U.S. economy and national security. The White House has urged the Chinese to abandon the program. China firmly opposes these U.S. trade practices, believing they represent "unilateralism" and "protectionism". Despite the increased tariffs imposed by the Trump administration as part of the trade war, in early 2019 the Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, and the U.S. Department of Congress reported that China's trade surplus was at a record high.

Robert Shapcote (born 1621, died 1689) was an English lawyer from Devon and four times Member of Parliament for Tiverton in 1646–1649, 1654, 1656 and 1660. He sat in the Irish House of Commons for Wicklow Borough from 1661 to 1665 and was briefly Attorney-General for Ireland. He fought in the Parliamentary army in the Civil War. Shapcote was the eldest son of Henry Shapcote of Bradninch and his first wife Wilmot Hill and was baptised on 4 February 1621. He entered Lincoln's Inn in 1638 and was called to the bar in 1645. From 1644 to 1646, he was a colonel in the Parliamentary army. He was elected Member of Parliament for Tiverton for the Long Parliament on 7 December 1646 but was excluded in 1649 under Pride's Purge. Shapcote became Recorder of Tiverton by 1647 and was also recorder of Bradninch and South Molton. He was J.P. for Devon from 1647 to 1649. In 1654 he was elected MP for Tiverton in the First Protectorate Parliament. He became commissioner for militia for Devon and commissioner for oyer and terminer on Western circuit in 1655. In 1656 he was re-elected MP for TIverton for the Second Protectorate Parliament. Also in 1656 he became commissioner for security, commissioner for assessment for Devon, commissioner for fraudulent debentures and Solicitor-General for Ireland. He became commissioner for new buildings in London in 1657. In 1659 he was unsuccessful in his attempt to be re-elected MP for Tiverton in a double return. He was deprived of his position as Solicitor General for Ireland when the Rump Parliament was restored, but became Attorney-General for Ireland when the secluded members were allowed in. In April 1660 he was elected MP for Tiverton again for the Convention Parliament in which he was very active, being particularly concerned with Irish matters, and with the religious settlement. In 1661 Shapcote went back to Ireland to practice law. He stood for three constituencies in the Irish parliament, and was elected for Wicklow Borough. He was highly regarded by the Cromwellians in Ireland, whereas Royalists denounced him as "a great fanatic" and the leader of "the seditious faction". There is no doubt that he had some influence in the Commons, although the extent of his influence has been disputed. Captain Blood consulted him on the plan to attack Dublin Castle which Shapcote discouraged. However Shapcote was arrested, and it was proposed to try him for treason as an example. After a year's imprisonment, on the intercession of Sir Courtenay Pole, 2nd Baronet, who had married his cousin, he was pardoned and released, but was expelled from the Irish parliament. He continued with his legal practice in Ireland, but took no further part in politics.

Qamata is the most prominent god in the Xhosa people of south-eastern Africa. Qamata is the child of the sun god, Thixo, and the earth goddess, Jobela.There are few certain beliefs about Qamata other than that he is omnipresent and that there is no other being like him. One act that may signify worship of or respect for him involves small artificial heaps of stones or cairns scattered about the land. A traveller may often be seen adding a stone to such cairns "for Qamata," in hopes of being granted luck or good fortune in whatever he happens to be thinking of at the time.

The Truth About Chernobyl is a 1991 book by Grigori Medvedev. Medvedev served as deputy chief engineer at the No. 1 reactor unit of the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant in the 1970s. At the time of the Chernobyl disaster in 1986, Medvedev was deputy director of the main industrial department in the Soviet Ministry of Energy dealing with the construction of nuclear power stations. Since Medvedev knew the Chernobyl plant well, he was sent back as a special investigator immediately after the 1986 catastrophe.In his book, Medvedev provides extensive first-hand testimony, based on many interviews, describing minute by minute precisely what was and was not done both before and after the explosion. It has been described as a tragic tale of pervasive, institutionalized, bureaucratic incompetence leading up to the accident; and heroic, heartbreaking sacrifice among those who had to deal with the emergency afterwards.The book is the single prime source for much of the actions of the operators, managers, firemen and others who are the actors in the Chernobyl disaster. It is, for example, the prime source for the article Individual involvement in the Chernobyl disaster. The book is written not in a documentary style but in a very personal style, often speaking in the first person. While it includes extensive direct quotes from some of those who survived the disaster, it does not include references beyond a bare seven footnotes.In 1991 it was awarded the Los Angeles Times Book Prize, Science and technology.

Since July 6, 2018, the People's Republic of China and the United States of America have been engaged in a trade war involving the mutual placement of tariffs. The President of the United States, Donald Trump, has exercised authority granted by Congress in the Trade Act of 1974, to unilaterally impose tariffs on $250 billion of Chinese goods after the Office of the United States Trade Representative determined China's trade practices were unfairly limiting U.S. exports. China’s Ministry of Commerce said in a statement that the United States "has launched the biggest trade war in economic history so far" and imposed retaliatory tariffs on U.S. goods of a similar value.

The dagesh (דָּגֵשׁ‬) is a diacritic used in the Hebrew alphabet. It was added to the Hebrew orthography at the same time as the Masoretic system of niqqud (vowel points). It takes the form of a dot placed inside a Hebrew letter and has the effect of modifying the sound in one of two ways.An identical mark, called mappiq, has a different phonetic function, and can be applied to different consonants; the same mark is also employed in the vowel shuruk.Dagesh and mappiq symbols are often omitted in writing. For instance, בּ‬ is often written as ב‬. The use or omission of such marks is usually consistent throughout any given context. The two functions of dagesh are distinguished as either kal (light) or ḥazak (strong).

The Green Bicycle Case was a murder investigation and subsequent trial pertaining to the fatal shooting of a young woman named Bella Wright near the Leicestershire village of Little Stretton on 5 July 1919. Wright was killed by a single bullet wound to the face, and on the evening of her death, she had been seen cycling in the company of an unknown man riding a green bicycle.Ronald Light, a 33-year-old mathematics teacher, is considered the prime suspect in Wright's murder. Light did not come forward in response to an extensive media appeal to trace a man matching his description seen on a green bicycle riding alongside Wright on the evening she was killed, and he is known to have made attempts to dispose of both his bicycle and revolver holster in a canal following her death. Upon his arrest, Light initially denied, then admitted to being in the company of Wright shortly before her death, although he consistently denied killing her. He was defended in court by Sir Edward Marshall Hall KC, who largely based his defence on the lack of a motive for Wright's death. Marshall Hall obtained Light's acquittal.The Green Bicycle Case would prove to be one of Britain's most celebrated and controversial murder cases of the 20th century, with opinions varying among authors as to Light's guilt and the actual motive behind the crime, should her death not have been the result of misadventure. The case has been described by one author as "The most fascinating murder mystery of the century."

Susan R. Barry is a professor of neurobiology at Mount Holyoke College and the author of Fixing My Gaze: A Scientist's Journey into Seeing in Three Dimensions. Barry was dubbed Stereo Sue by neurologist and author Oliver Sacks in a 2006 New Yorker article with that name. Barry's book greatly expands on Sacks' article and discusses the experience of gaining stereovision through optometric vision therapy, after a lifetime of being stereoblind. It challenges the conventional wisdom that the brain is wired for perceptual skills during a critical period in early childhood and provides evidence instead for neuronal plasticity throughout life. Barry's achievement of stereo vision, with the help of a developmental optometrist Dr. Theresa Ruggiero, was reported in BBC's Imagine documentary broadcast on June 28, 2011.
