Al-Nabi Shayth
Al-Nabi Shayth ( ar, ٱلنَّبِي شَيْت, An-Nabī Shayt, also ''Nabi Chit'' or ''Nabi Sheeth'' ( ar, ٱلنَّبِي شِيْت, An-Nabī Sheeth), literally "The Prophet Seth"), is a village in the Valley of Beqa' and District of Ba'albek in Lebanon. The village was called by that name because it is considered to contain the burial-site of Seth the son of Adam. A mosque was built on the burial site and it contains the grave of Seth inside the mosque (a rival tradition placed Seth's tomb in the Palestinian village of Bashsheet, and likewise in the Iraqi city of Mosul). The village is also the hometown of Abbas al-Musawi, who was a leader of Hezbollah, and an influential Twelver Shi'ite cleric. The village of ''Al-Nabi Sheeth'' is predominantly inhabited by people with the surnames Helbawi, Al-Moussawi, Hazimeh and Chokr. History Ibn Jubayr (1145–1217 CE) noted: In 1838, Eli Smith noted ''En-Neby Sheeth'' as a "Metawileh" village in the district of Baalbek. On 22 D ...

Multi-purpose Stadium
A multi-purpose stadium is a type of stadium designed to be easily used by multiple types of events. While any stadium could potentially host more than one type of sport or event, this concept usually refers to a specific design philosophy that stresses multifunctionality over specificity. It is used most commonly in Canada and the United States, where the two most popular outdoor team sports – Canadian football/American football and baseball – require radically different facilities. Football uses a rectangular field while baseball is played on a diamond and large outfield. Since Canadian football fields are larger than American ones, the design specifications for Canadian facilities is somewhat less demanding. The particular design to accommodate both is usually an oval, although some later designs use an octorad. While building stadiums in this way means that sports teams and governments can share costs, it also imposes some challenges. In North America, multipurpose sta ...
