## Legislative Assembly of Nunavut

The Legislative Assembly of Nunavut is a public government and operates on the consensus model. Members of the Legislative Assembly (MLAs) belong to no political party and voting isn't based on party politics. Nunavummiut (the people of Nunavut) elect each of their MLAs as an independent representative. The MLAs vote for and form the government from among themselves.
Soon after each general election the MLAs elect one of their Members to be Speaker of the Legislative Assembly and another to be Premier of Nunavut. They also elect from among themselves the Members of Cabinet that form the government. The Cabinet are a minority in the Legislature, so the majority of MLAs must agree upon and approve any legislative decision.

# AIR Awards of 2009

The AIR Awards of 2009 is the fourth annual Australian Independent Record Labels Association Music Awards (generally known as the AIR Awards and Jagermeister AIR Awards) and was an award ceremony at The Forum Theatre, in Melbourne, Australia on 23 November 2009 to recognise outstanding achievements of local artists who release their work through an Australian-owned independent record label and distribute their work through a locally-owned distribution firm.
The event was again sponsored by German liquor brand, Jägermeister and was filmed for a one-hour special on Australian pay-TV music broadcaster Channel V. The event was hosted by The Chaser's Julian Morrow.
AIR GM Nick O'Byrne told Billboard the awards are slowly attracting more corporate sponsorship, saying "As far as the awards themselves go, we're developing a history of recognising artists that are yet to hit widespread mainstream success - like Gotye and Hilltop Hoods did in 2006 - or are just starting to blossom like Geoffrey Gurrumul Yunupingu and British India last year and Blue King Brown the year before."

# Estudando o Samba

Estudando o Samba is a concept album by Brazilian singer Tom Zé, recorded in 1976. It was listed by the Brazilian edition of Rolling Stone as one of the 100 best Brazilian albums in history.
The album didn't receive much attention from the Brazilian press. It surveys Brazilian music's largest genre, the samba, while approaching the music with the same creativity Zé had shown with his previous album, Todos os Olhos.
While doing research about samba for his musical label Luaka Bop, David Byrne bought this album after allegedly feeling attracted to its unusual cover and reignited Tom Zé's career.
The cover is almost entirely blank, except for the album's title and Zé's name themselves and for a rope and a barbed wire which can be seen at the image's bottom. Zé wanted them to be references to both the ongoing military dictatorship in Brazil and to the strict manner in which samba was performed, with its rhythms firmly dictated by samba schools directors.
His name was purposely written with a much smaller font size than that of the album's. In a 2019 interview, he said he didn't remember the reason for the small font, but said he was probably willing to "hide" behind the album.

# Edward Baker (Kent cricketer)

Edward Baker (9 February 1846 – 30 June 1913) was an English cricketer. He played one first-class match for Kent County Cricket Club in 1875.
Baker was born at Plaxtol near Tunbridge Wells in Kent in 1846. He was the youngest son of William and Mary Baker, his father operating a butchers shop and working as a farrier. Baker grew up in Plaxtol before the family moved to Wrotham near Sevenoaks. By the time he was 15 he was working as a butcher with his father and brother.
A right-arm medium pace bowler described as having a "high arm" action, Baker was also employed as a professional cricketer, working in 1871 at Kersal in the Manchester area. After impressing with five wickets in a match for the Players of Tonbridge in July 1875, he was selected in the Kent county side to play Lancashire County Cricket Club at Manchester later in the month. He took a single wicket in the match and was run out twice without scoring. This proved to be his only first-class match, although he is known to have continued to play club cricket and umpire in local matches.
Baker later became a publican, first at Chagford in Devon and later at Maidenhead in Berkshire. He married his wife Mary in Devon; the couple had six children. He continued to coach cricket. Baker died at Maidenhead in 1913 aged 67.

# Corpus Chronicorum Bononiensium

The Corpus Chronicorum Bononiensium is a collection of Renaissance-era chronicles dealing with the history of Bologna.
The collection includes the closely related Cronaca Rampona and Cronaca Varignana. Cronaca Rampona was formerly misattributed to Ridolfo Ramponi (whence its conventional title). The text of these chronicles mostly consists of the Antichità di Bologna by the Franciscan friar Bartolomeo della Pugliola (c. 1358–1422/5), which consists of annals down to 1420, which in the case of the Cronaca Rampona was extended in similar style down to the year 1535.
The texts of the collection were edited by Albano Sorbelli in 1906 and the years following.
# Acalolepta mausoni

# Pippo (airplane)

Pippo was a mythical airplane, unique to Northern Italy, that flew during World War II. An example of oral history, Pippo is not well documented even in Italy.

## Overview

Pippo had a distinctive buzz, was rarely if ever seen and flew mainly at night. If people were faithful to the Fascists, they considered it an Allied plane. If people were supporters of the Allies, it was thought to be a Luftwaffe or Italian Air Force aircraft. No matter what their political allegiances, people personified it as a “he” – the plane and the pilot as one. It is suspected that the Italian government used Pippo as a propaganda tool to turn ordinary civilians against the Allies, though there is no doubt the plane was real.
It is unclear how Pippo got its name. It may have been a play on the Italian moniker for Disney’s Goofy character or alternatively was based on the pip-pip sounds it apparently made.
Despite the unthreatening name, people mainly interpreted Pippo as something fearful. Superstition held that one had to block the lights in one’s house or Pippo might fire upon it. It was said to drop exploding pens, poisoned candy, or so-called butterfly bombs and to fire on farm workers in fields.
Only decades later did historians surmise the likely origin of the plane. When the Allies gained a foothold in Italy in the later years of the war, pilots began flying tactical night missions to survey and intervene in German troop movements. It never occurred to them that they were inadvertently terrorizing the countryside. In particular, the Royal Air Force used a plane called the de Havilland Mosquito.
