Batch 10 is a name journalist have given to the tenth batch of former Saudi captives to be repatriated to Saudi Arabian custody.[1][2][3] Five of the fourteen captives in this group repatriated to Saudi captivity on November 9, 2007 were among the eleven former Guantanamo captives to be listed on the 85 men on the Saudi list of most wanted terrroist suspects, published on February 3, 2009. One of the cohort, Said Ali al-Shihri, became second in command of Al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula.
According to Peter Taylor, reporting for the BBC, his team found that the cohort of Saudis repatriated in November 2007 problematic.[1] He reported that many of these captives were not rehabilitated. He reported that five of the fourteen men in batch 10 escaped to Yemen, and joined jihadists there. The version of the men's names were Mohammed al-Awfi, Said al-Shihri, Yussef al-Shihri, Murtadha Ali Saeed Magram and Turki Meshawi Zayid al-Assiri. Said al-Shihri and Mohammed al-Awfi appeared in an alarming video in January 2009. Said al-Shihri took a leadership role in Al Qaida in the Arabian Peninsula. Yussef al-Shihri was killed in a shoot-out with Saudi security officials. He is alleged to have tried to cross the Saudi border dressed in a Burkha, an all-encompassing female garment, armed with a suicide belt. Taylor reports that Murtadha Ali Saeed Magram and Turki Meshawi Zayid al-Assiri remain at large. The other nine men repatriated in batch 10 were: Zaid Muhamamd Sa'id Al Husayn, Sultan Ahmed Dirdeer Musa Al Uwaydha, Khalid Saud Abd Al Rahman Al Bawardi, Faha Sultan, Fahd Umr Abd Al Majid Al Sharif, Nayif Abdallah Ibrahim Al Nukhaylan, Abdullah Abd Al Mu'in Al Wafti, Hani Saiid Mohammad Al Khalif and Jabir Hasan Muhamed Al Qahtani.[4][5]

Other uses
Fit (manufacturing)
In precision mechanics, fit refers to the degree of 'looseness' with which an shaft is inserted into an orifice.
This coupling is related to the tolerance or allowance of both parts dimensions. The shaft and the orifice must be of a similar diameter, otherwise there will not be a correct adjustment. With this in mind, measurements have been internationally standarised according to ISO regulation to ensure the interchangeability of items and their mass production.
Tolerance values are designated with a capital letter in the case of orificies and lower case letters in the case of shafts. The lower the value the higher the machining costs, as a greater precision is required.
Maximum and minimum clearance
The maximum clearance of a fit is the difference between the upper bound of the orifice diameter and the lower bound of the shaft diameter.
The minimum clearance meanwhile is the difference between the lower bound of the orifice diameter and the upper bound of the shaft diameter.
Fit (2010 film)
Fit is a 2010 film written and directed by Rikki Beadle-Blair, and commissioned by the Gay Rights Charity Stonewall. It is adapted from the 2008 play of the same name about the everyday lives of a group of both gay and straight millennial students taking drama and dance class. The original play had been developed in 2008 to address the growing problem of homophobic bullying in British schools, and was especially created for KS3 students, with a specific focus on learning objectives from the National Curriculum including PHSE and Citizenship. The film itself was opened in the form of an introductory chapter, with six interlinking chapters of fifteen minutes, each focusing on one of the main characters in a first-person perspective of their life, views and problems. The DVD release of Fit also contained five video diaries for each of the characters, giving students and other viewers the opportunity to listen to the characters talking more in-depth about their feelings and the situation they are facing.
Stay (Bernard Butler song)
"Stay" is the debut single from Bernard Butler released in January 1998. It was taken from the album People Move On and charted at number 12 on the UK Singles Chart.
Background
The song begins with a gentle acoustic guitar, which leads into Butler's vocals. Drums, electric guitar, keyboards and backing vocals all get introduced gradually, before coming together in one last climax and quiet coda. Butler has said that "Stay" is not a love song but a song about change. "The process of change is hard but you've got to do it. It's about when you know you've got to do something but there's an element of risk. It's about when I first went to France to record. A lot of the lyrics come from a conversation with Elisa, my wife. I wrote them on the train over to France."
The music video for the title song was directed by David Mould, whose directing credits include Suede's "Trash", the first single released after Butler's departure. B-side "Hotel Splendide" features lead vocals from Edwyn Collins.
Can't Be Tamed
Can't Be Tamed is the third studio album by American singer Miley Cyrus. It was released on June 18, 2010, by Hollywood Records; it would become her final album with the label after signing with RCA Records in 2013. Cyrus wrote the project in 2009, while travelling internationally for her Wonder World Tour, and recorded it in 2010. Described by Cyrus as a "good [record] to blast in your car", Can't Be Tamed represents a musical departure from her earlier work, which she had grown to feel uninspired by. As executive producers, Tish Cyrus and Jason Morey enlisted partners including Devrim Karaoglu, Marek Pompetzki, Rock Mafia, and John Shanks to achieve Cyrus' desired new sound. Their efforts resulted in a primarily dance-pop record, which Cyrus' record label acknowledged differed from the original plans for the project. Its lyrical themes revolve largely around breaking free of constraints and expectations, which are largely mentioned in the context of romantic relationships.
