He only conducted the orchestra in London once, at the Royal Festival Hall In October 1959. Gray was particularly noted for his ability to deputise for guest conductors if they suddenly became unavailable: Thomas Beecham later recalled "If I needed a conductor at short notice I'd get hold of Harold Gray. He'd know the work and get on without any fuss". In 1956 Gray deputised for Beecham - who was taken sick the day before a performance - by learning Liszt's Faust Symphony overnight, studying the score until 4am and conducting it the next day.

Already the deaths of Robinson's eldest daughter Elizabeth (24) and her nephew Thomas Freeman (7) had caused suspicion and were under investigation, but the breaking point came when her son, William, was taken sick with the previous symptoms. Although he died shortly, he still managed to point at his mother as the one responsible for his condition. Using this knowledge, Dr. White preserved parts of William's stomach for later analysis at Harvard College, which revealed large quantities of arsenic.

The fever and subsequent shaking ague lasted nearly a year.

It is considered more probable that Hall was murdered by one of the other members of the expedition; possibly Bessels, who was in near- constant attendance of Hall after he had taken sick. Furthermore, Bessels and Hall appear to have vied for the attention of sculptor Vinnie Ream – Bessels more so than Hall, the latter of whom Ream evidently preferred. While the Polaris was outfitted in Washington and New York, both were known to sometimes associate with Ream. Just before their departure to the Arctic, Bessels expressed his desire to see Ream again in a letter.

After two hours at Anzac Cove, he instructed Lt General Birdwood, the Commander of the Mediterranean Expeditionary Force to begin planning to evacuate the Peninsula. Winter was coming and already too many soldiers were being taken sick and even dying of hypothermia and frostbite, while the Turks had been stubbornly holding their ground. Retreat made sense, aside from just one problem: once the Turks figured out the troops were pulling back, the retreat would very quickly become a bloodbath.

Nancy is an African-American washerwoman working for Quentin's family since their regular cook, Dilsey, is taken sick. Jesus, Nancy's common- law husband, suspects that she is pregnant with a white man's child and leaves her. At first Nancy is only worried about going home at night and running into Jesus, but later she is paralyzed with the fear that he will kill her, having delusions of him being hidden in a ditch outside her house.

(Though born in New York, Oates was raised in a suburb of Philadelphia and attended Temple University.)

The song is about a dying girl who faces the sure prospect of going to heaven, with the opening lyrics; "Our little girl had taken sick one evening as she walked home from school and then her deathbed soon claimed her, it made us so sad and so blue. As Robert Cantwell put it in his book Bluegrass breakdown: the making of the old southern sound, "the sick child leaves the world with a rebuke to her parents, whose tears imply that their faith has been shaken." In the recording, Joe Val sang in falsetto on this song; he was a strong tenor on most songs. Bluegrass Unlimited said "His songs were at once tragic and filled with a radiant life force, in music as heart-wrenchingly old-fashioned as "I Hear A Sweet Voice Calling".

Initial recording sessions for third album, Be a Girl, proved unsuccessful—first choice producer Dagge Lunquist took paternity leave late in 1993 and a second attempt with producer Micke Herrström had to be abandoned after just a week and a half when, first engineer Adam Kviman, then Herrström were taken sick with hearing injuries. "Love in June", the only song to be completed with Micke Herrström, was released as a single while the band tried again to record Be a Girl, this time with producer Nille Perned. The album was finally finished by late 1994 and was released along with second single, "You and Me Song", to critical acclaim in their native country. Shortly afterwards the band came to the attention of Indolent Records in the United Kingdom who signed The Wannadies in the summer of 1995.

There are many subcategories of paid leave, usually dependent on the reasons why the leave is being taken. Sick leave is normally compensated at 100% of pay, while other types of leave are often more restrictive, such as only compensating a certain percentage of normal pay, or as regards paid holidays, which in some countries are granted automatically by national governments, such as in most European Union countries, and in others, such as the United States, are a matter of the individual worker accumulating holiday entitlements over a period of time in the workplace and then using them once a sufficient number of such days have been accumulated. The internationally-acknowledged definition of paid leave, in international labour law as observed by the International Labour Organisation and others, is one that restricts itself only to pre-approved labour agreements in the workplace. Unpaid leave is leave that is granted exceptionally by the workplace and that is given permission to occur by the workplace, but is not compensated.

The exam passing rate of the 8th grade in 2 schools in the Red Sea State to high school reached 100%; the physical condition of students has been greatly improved, the number of students who have taken sick leave has been significantly reduced, and the attendance rate of students has been greatly increased. The time for teachers to deal with unexpected incidents has been reduced and they can concentrate more on teaching. The project received praise from all sectors of the Sudanese society and Sudan's mainstream media reported the successful cases of the project. China Foundation for Poverty Alleviation received donation of RMB 200,000 from the South-South Education Foundation for a computer classroom project in Sudan in 2017, which was used to provide 50 computers in the Osman Ibn Afan boys’ school, the Thoyba Girls’ School, the Humyraa Girls’ School, the Nasr Girls’ School and the Algadisya Boys' School in Khartoum, Sudan.
