Amara (beetle)
''Amara'' is a large genus of carabid beetles, commonly called the sun beetles. Many are holarctic, but a few species are neotropical or occur in eastern Asia. These ground beetles are mostly black or bronze-colored, and many species have a characteristic "bullet-shaped" habitus, as shown in the photos, making them taxonomically difficult for a beginner. They are predominantly herbivorous, with some species known to climb ripening grasses to feed on the seeds. Other species are used as weed control agents. Numerous species are adventive in non-native habitats, particularly species that thrive in synanthropic settings.

Celia (given Name)
Celia is a feminine given name of Latin origin, as well as a nickname for Cecilia, Cecelia, Celeste, or Celestina. The name is often derived from the Roman family name '' Caelius'', thought to originate in the Latin ''caelum'' ("heaven"). Celia was popular in British pastoral literature in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, possibly stemming from the ruler of the House of Holiness in Edmund Spenser's epic poem ''The Faerie Queene'' or from a character in William Shakespeare's play ''As You Like It''. Celia could indeed have Berber origins, since it is considered as a variant of the Quinquegentiani princess Cyria, daughter of Flavius Nubel. The name is derived from the Berber word "Tissirt" meaning quern-stone. The name shares the same origins as the historical city Cirta. A popular variant of the name is Silya/Celya. It is a popular name in Lebanon and Maghreb countries (Algeria more specifically). Names with similar meanings in other languages *Kūlani ("heavenly", ...

All The News That's Fit To Sing
''All the News That's Fit to Sing'' was Phil Ochs's first official album. Recorded in 1964 for Elektra Records, it was full of many elements that would come back throughout his career.

It is one in a long line of Folk music, folk albums used to tell stories about everyday struggles and hardships. Among these stories was that of William Worthy, an American journalist who traveled to Cuba in spite of an embargo on the country who was forbidden to return to the United States. Civil rights figures Medgar Evers and Emmett Till were lionized in "Too Many Martyrs" (alternatively known as "The Ballad of Medgar Evers".)
