# Roberto Bertol

Roberto Bertol Garrastazu (2 December 1917 – 3 March 1990) was a Spanish footballer. He was a key part of the great Athletic Bilbao team of the 1940s, where he spent 11 seasons and would eventually become its captain.

## Career

Bertol was born in Lizarza, a small town in Gipuzkoa near the border with Navarre. His first steps as a player were with a modest hometown team. At the outbreak of the Spanish Civil War (1936) had just 18 years old. Like many boys his age Bertol, was forced to fight in the war. When it ended in 1939 he played for SD Deusto (Bilbao), a team that won a national amateur championship that year.
After the civil war, Athletic Bilbao was forced to rebuild their team almost from scratch, because most players who had proclaimed league champions in 1936 were now retired or in exile. This started a campaign in which they sought new players from the second division teams based in Biscay. Bertol was one of the players selected in that talent search campaign, one of the first in the new Athletic. His debut in the Spanish Primera División took place on 3 December 1939 when he had just turned 22.
His professional football career lasted the next 10 years in the ranks of Athletic Bilbao, between the 1939–40 season and 1949–50. During those years he was a member of one of the best teams in the history of Athletic, the team known as the 'historic second front' consisting of Iriondo, Zarra, Venancio, Panizo and Gaínza. Bertol was one of the key pieces in that team, especially between 1942–43 and 1948–49 seasons, although his role was in second place to the stars of the club, namely the forwards and the goalkeeper Lezama. His role was to provide security to the midfield. At the end of his career also served as team captain because of his charisma and seniority.
Bertol's honours included a league title (1942–43), two runner-up finishes (1940–41 and 1946–47), two Cup wins (1944, 1945) and two losing finals (1942 and 1949).
After defending the jersey for 186 matches and 11 seasons, Bertol played his last official match in the league on 9 October 1949. That season he rounded out his resume with the last Cup title, but did not play an active role.
A farewell match for him was played on 21 December 1950 in San Mames Stadium.

### National team

Bertol was called to play with the Spain national football team twice. His international debut was on 26 January 1947 in a friendly against Portugal (4–1 defeat), and his second and final match was played in 1948 against Switzerland, a 3–3 draw.
# Waterthrush

The waterthrushes are a genus of New World warbler, Parkesia.
The genus was split from Seiurus, which previously contained both waterthrush species and the ovenbird. When the genera split, the ovenbird was the only member left in Seiurus (making it a monotypic genus).

## Taxonomy

The genus Parkesia was introduced in 2008 by George Sangster with the northern waterthrush as the type species. The generic name was chosen to honor the American ornithologist Kenneth Carroll Parkes, who was for many years Curator of Birds at Carnegie Museum of Natural History.

## Species

The genus contains two species.
Genus Parkesia – Sangster, 2008 – two species :
| Common name | Scientific name and subspecies | Range | Size and ecology | IUCN status and estimated population |
| Northern waterthrush | Parkesia noveboracensis (Gmelin, 1789) | North America in Canada and the northern United States including Alaska | Size: Habitat: Diet: | LC |
| Louisiana waterthrush | Parkesia motacilla (Vieillot, 1809) | eastern North America and winters in the West Indies and Central America | Size: Habitat: Diet: | LC |
# Eulophias

# Oligonyx bicornis

Oligonyx bicornis is a species of mantid in the family Thespidae.
# Carnosine N-methyltransferase

In enzymology, a carnosine N-methyltransferase (EC 2.1.1.22) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
    S-adenosyl-L-methionine + carnosine $\rightleftharpoons$ S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + anserine
Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are S-adenosyl methionine and carnosine, whereas its two products are S-adenosylhomocysteine and anserine.
This enzyme belongs to the family of transferases, specifically those transferring one-carbon group methyltransferases. The systematic name of this enzyme class is S-adenosyl-L-methionine:carnosine N-methyltransferase. This enzyme participates in histidine metabolism.

## Gene

The genes encoding carnosine N-methyltransferase activity have been identified by Jakub Drozak and coworkers in 2013 and 2015. In birds and reptiles, the enzyme is encoded by histamine N-methyltransferase-like gene (HNMT-like). Importantly, the HNMT-like gene is absent from available mammalian genomes and in mammalian species, the formation of anserine is catalyzed by methyltransferase that is unrelated to the reptilian and avian enzyme and encoded by C9orf41/UPF0586 gene.

## Protein Nomenclature

Currently, the avian-reptilian enzyme encoded by HNMT-like gene is labeled as carnosine N-methyltransferase 2 in public databases, while the mammalian methyltransferase is named carnosine N-methyltransferase 1 (CARNMT1).
# Leonardo Acori

Leonardo Acori (born 16 January 1955) is an Italian football manager and former player, who played as a midfielder.

## Playing career

Acori played since 1974 to 1983 in the football team of G.S. Banco di Roma.

## Coaching career

Acori's first coaching experience came in 1990, at the helm of Interregionale team Rieti, which he led to a fourth place, then winning the division the next year with L'Aquila. After two seasons with Viterbese (a fourth and a third place), he served as mid-season replacement at Ternana with little fortune, and then trying unsuccessfully to escape relegation with Lazio-based team Ladispoli the following year. In 1997–98 he became head coach of Gubbio, leading them to an immediate Serie D title and a seventh place in the Serie C2 the following season. In 1999, he joined Tuscan side Sangiovannese, leading them to a Serie D title in 1999–2000 and narrowly missing promotion to Serie C1 in 2001–02 after losing the playoff finals to Pro Patria.
In 2002–03 he was appointed as new Rimini boss, leading the biancorossi to a second place in the Serie C2/B, and then winning the promotion playoffs. The next season, he then led Rimini to a fourth place in the Serie C1 round, missing a second consecutive promotion after losing the subsequent promotion playoffs. The promotion however proved just to be delayed as Rimini managed to win the Serie C1/A round the following season, thus ensuring a historical Serie B comeback. He was confirmed at the helm of Rimini with notable fortune, leading also his side to a fifth place in the 2006–2007 Serie B.
On 4 June 2008 he was announced as new Livorno boss, with the aim to lead the amaranto back to Serie A in their 2008–09 Serie B campaign. He was sacked on 23 May 2009 after a 0–1 home loss to AlbinoLeffe in Serie B's Week 41 (with only one weekday remaining), despite having already achieved a spot in the upcoming promotion playoffs, with assistant coach Gennaro Ruotolo replacing him for the remaining league and playoff games.
In June 2009 he was named new head coach of ambitious Lega Pro Prima Divisione club Benevento, but was removed from his head management post later in December due to poor results. He was appointed back at the helm of Benevento later in April 2010 to replace Andrea Camplone, with the aim to qualify his side to a promotion playoff spot with only four games remaining to the end of the regular season.
From 26 October 2010 until he was sacked on 11 April 2011, he was the coach of U.S. Cremonese.
On 2 October 2012 he was named new coach of San Marino Calcio, taking the place of the recently sacked Mario Petrone.
