The Irish People's Liberation Organisation (IPLO) was a small Irish Republican and Revolutionary Socialist Paramilitary group formed in November 1986 having broke away from the Irish National Liberation Army (INLA) before being forcibly disbanded in 1992 by the Provisional IRA. during it's brief existence the IPLO had 150-200 members with 30-40 active members at any one time. it killed 24 people including 6 INLA members 2 members of the UDA 1 member of the Red Hand Commando 1 member of the UVF (who was also a former DUP politician) 1 RUC Constable 1 Royal Navy Reservist 2 of it's members killed in the internal feud that put an end to the group and 10 (mostly Protestant) Civilians. 13 IPLO members were killed during it's existence. the IPLO's Political Wing was the Republican Socialist Collective. some the IPLO's most notable actions were the Rossnaree Hotel Shooting when 2 IPLO gunmen armed with handguns shot dead 2 INLA members and injured 2 others (a former Irish Soldier was allegedly one of the gunmen) the Orange Cross Social Club Shooting when IPLO Belfast Brigade Commander Martin "Rook" O'Prey (who was shot dead by the UVF in 1991) armed with an Uzi shot dead a member of the Red Hand Commando and injured a British Soldier and 4 other Civilians. and the Donegall Arms Shooting when 2 IPLO gunmen armed with a Revolver and Sawn-off shotgun shot dead 2 Protestant Civilians and injured 5 others.
The IPLO essentially took over the role of the INLA up to 1992 when the INLA had a resurgence thanks in part to the influx of IPLO members back into the INLA when the IPLO disbanded

In sales terms, a whale is a prospect that is significantly larger than an organization’s average customer.

Whales are large and extremely difficult to close. Due to their immense size, they are highly sought-after.

A whale is typically identified at first by a whale hunter on the sales team, but often requires cross-discipline participation in order to close; this includes assistance from operations, engineering, creative, client success, and business development teams.
"Shit...the sales director chewed me out on the sales call this morning. He's totally pissed that I have nothing in my pipeline. I've been focused on this one whale for so long that I haven't had time to prospect for normal-sized deals."
