# Zygostates (Byzantine official)

The zygostates (Greek: ζυγοστάτης, "one who weighs with a balance"; plural: ζυγοστάται, zygostatai) was a public weigher of the coinage of the Byzantine Empire. According to the Lex Julia, he was a municipal official whose function was to verify the quality of the gold solidus coins.

## Description

The term zygostates often appears in inscriptions and papyri of the late Roman Empire in the form of zygostates tes poleos (Greek: ζυγοστάτης τῆς πόλεως, "public weigher of the city"). It has its origin in the demosioi, or state slaves, of ancient Greece who were employed in the mint or as other treasury functionaries, and the term demosioi zygostatai is attested in several works.
The Byzantine emperor Justinian I (r. 527–565) regarded the zygostatai, in his 11th Edict, as the main offenders in changing the purity of gold coins. Some imperial seals bearing the name of zygostatai are preserved from the 6th and 7th centuries AD. In the Taktika of the 9th and 10th centuries AD, the zygostates is a state, rather than urban, functionary belonging to the staff of the sakellion. The epithet "imperial" is granted to the zygostates on a Byzantine seal dating to the 7th century AD. Based on this evidence, John Bagnell Bury surmised that in the 7th century the zygostates began to examine and weigh coins that came to the Byzantine imperial treasury. The Byzantine Greek monk and abbot, Theodore the Studite, described the zygostasia, or the imperial station where the zygostatai worked, as a profitable business. As for Christopher of Mytilene, he praised a zygostates named Eustathios as the founder of a church and "one of the great chartoularioi".
The term zygastikon (Greek: ζυγαστικόν), attested in a false privilege granted to the city of Monemvasia in 1316, refers to one of the customary payments made to toll inspectors for measuring and weighing wares. On a functional level, the zygastikon had nothing in common with the zygostates of the sakellion.

# Anike Agbaje-Williams

Anike Agbaje-Williams (née Kuforiji; 23 October 1936 – 26 February 2025) was a Nigerian newsreader who was the first female television staff announcer and broadcaster in Nigeria.

## Life and career

Anike Kuforiji was born in Abeokuta on 23 October 1936. Her father was of Egba heritage. She spent her primary school and junior secondary school years in Lagos under the care of her guardian, Mrs Gbemisola Rosiji, wife of Ayo Rosiji, and Bishop and Mrs S. C. Philips. She attended CMS Girls School, Lagos. In 1950, when CMS Girls School was relocated to Ibadan and renamed St Anne's School, she moved with the school and finished her education in Ibadan.
After completing secondary school education, she was hired by the Nigerian Broadcasting Corporation at Ikoyi, Lagos, in 1955. One day, a colleague who usually did announcements or read small bits of information on the radio did not show up, and the current host then asked her to take his place. When the supervisor heard Agbaje-Williams's voice, he was impressed, and then asked her to join the programmes department as a staff announcer.
When a television station was established at Ibadan, she was asked to interview and was subsequently given a job at the station. Agbaje-Williams was a pioneer staff of WNTV, which was the first television station in Nigeria. She was the first person to appear on television broadcast in the country, and was the first female broadcaster of the station. She rose to become a producer and director of programmes at the television station before retiring in 1986.
Agbaje-Williams died in Ibadan on 26 February 2025, at the age of 88.

# Strathmill distillery

57°32′25.5″N 2°57′40.4″W﻿ / ﻿57.540417°N 2.961222°W﻿ / 57.540417; -2.961222
Strathmill distillery is one of three distilleries within the Moray town of Keith at the heart of "Malt Whisky Country".
Unlike Keith's other two distilleries, Strathisla and Glen Keith, which are owned by Chivas (part of the Pernod Ricard group), Strathmill is owned by Diageo, which operates it primarily for the production of blends such as J&B whisky.

## History

The site had originally been home to a corn mill, established by A. G. Johnstone as Strathisla Mills in 1823, but following a boom in the whisky industry between 1890 and 1899 it was converted into a distillery in 1891. Some of the buildings therefore date to before its whisky production days. It was during this era of high demand that some thirty other distilleries were constructed in the area.
It was in 1895 when gin producers W. & A. Gilbey bought the distillery that the name was changed from Glenisla-Glenlivet to its current name of Strathmill, the name deriving from the Gaelic word 'Strath' meaning "shallow valley" and "mill" relating to its former use. In 1962 it was acquired by International Distillers & Vintners for production of malt for J&B blended whisky..
In 1998 United Distillers was merged with International Distillers & Vintners to create United Distillers & Vintners, forming the spirits division of Diageo.

## Production

Production equipment consists of two wash stills, two spirit stills and seven warehouses on site; five traditional dunnage warehouses and two racked warehouses. It has a production capacity of 1,800,000 litres of pure alcohol per year.
Diageo use the majority of the malt for primarily J&B blended whisky.

# Kristian Kornelius Hagemann Brandt

Kristian Kornelius Hagemann Brandt (8 July 1831 – 24 July 1905) was a Norwegian military officer and engineer.
He was born in Eidsberg. He was a brother of law professor Fredrik Peter Brandt, and was the father of medicine professor Kristian Kornelius Hagemann Brandt (1859–1932) and Major General Fredrik Oscar Brandt (1860–1934).
From 1861 to 1862, he was the chairman of the Norwegian Polytechnic Society. He was elected to the Parliament of Norway in 1865 and 1868, representing the constituency of Moss og Drøbak. While serving here, he proposed an inquiry into the question of a railway in Smaalenenes Amt. He has thus been called "the father of the Smaalenene Line".
From 1872 to 1873, he served as the road inspector of Akershus Amt. In 1890, he reached the military rank of Major. He died in 1905.
# Union Mills (Fall River, Massachusetts)

Union Mills is a historic textile mill complex located on Pleasant Street in Fall River, Massachusetts.
The Union Mills company was incorporated in 1859, and was the first large steam-powered mill built in the city, having installed Corliss steam engines. The buildings are constructed from local Fall River granite. The company's first president was S. Angier Chace, and David Anthony was the first treasurer. It was the first mill corporation established in the city on the basis of general subscriptions.
In 1865, Mill No. 2 was constructed. In 1876 the original gable roofs of both mills were removed and replaced with flat roofs, thereby adding additional floor space. A third mill was later constructed adjacent to Mill No. 2, but was demolished in the 1960s for the construction of Interstate 195. Production of textiles ceased in 1929.
In 1968 the site was photographed by Jack E. Boucher of the Historic American Buildings Survey, along with the adjacent Durfee Mills, as part of the New England Textile Mill Survey II, led by Robert M. Vogel of the Smithsonian Institution. The site was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.
Over the years, the Union Mills have been occupied by numerous small businesses, including Nate Lions Appliance Warehouse for many years before its move to the nearby Durfee Mills. Both mills have been completely restored and are now the location of Prima CARE Medical Center.
# Roger Twose

Roger Graham Twose /ˈtuːz/ (born 17 April 1968) is an English-born New Zealand former cricketer, who played 16 Test matches and 87 One Day Internationals for New Zealand in the mid-1990s. In February 2021, Twose was appointed as the director of New Zealand Cricket. Twose was a member of the New Zealand team that won the 2000 ICC KnockOut Trophy.

## Early life and education

Twose was born in Torquay in England. He was educated at King's College, Taunton.

## International career

After playing for Warwickshire County Cricket Club, Twose moved to play for Northern Districts in New Zealand in 1991–92. Later, he played for Wellington as well. Twose performed well in New Zealand for several seasons, eventually being selected for a national cap on New Zealand's 1995 tour to India.
In the 1998/1999 season, Twose returned to the New Zealand side and soon became recognised as one of the best one day batsmen in the world, known as "the switch-hitter". Twose followed strong performances against India and South Africa by being New Zealand's most successful batsman at the 1999 Cricket World Cup, scoring 318 runs at an average of 79.50.
Following his retirement from Test cricket, Twose continued to perform consistently in the One Day International arena, rising to 2nd in the world batting rankings. He reached his peak on New Zealand's 2000 tour of South Africa when he finally scored his first and only century after 75 matches. His performances resulted in one of New Zealand cricket's cult mantras "We need sixes, fours and Twose to win". His blistering innings of 87 against Pakistan in the 2000 ICC KnockOut Trophy semi final allowed New Zealand to defeat a strong looking Pakistan, and he also contributed to their win against India in the Final. New Zealand seized that year's Champion's Trophy to win their first major ICC Tournament.
# Predrag Milićević - Barbarien

Predrag Milićević - Barbarien (Serbian Cyrillic: Предраг Милићевић - Барбаријен; Jagodina, February 2, 1963 – May 5, 2013) was a Serbian outsider art (also used terms: marginal art, brut art) painter.

## Biography

He was born in Jagodina in 1963. He lived in Jagodina and Belgrade. He began doing painting in 1992 and very soon he began to exhibit successfully. His first independent exhibition named Punch on the middle class, in Stara kapetanija Gallery, Zemun, January 1994, was proclaimed the exhibition of the week this month in Belgrade. He became the member of Association of Serbian Artists in 1994. On several occasions he participated in Spring Exhibitions of Association in Cvijeta Zuzorić Art Pavilion in Belgrade. He died in Jagodina in 2013.

## Artistic style

He liberated himself from unrest by painting. With his rich intellect and irony, in his short but very prolific and expressive lifetime, the artist pulled the suggestive power of his agony out of his internal depths, transforming it into rich coloring and wide and energetic strokes of his paintbrush. His in-satiate fascination with life in all aspects elevated the conflicts and passion to the level of universally human, thus creating the inner tension of form. Expressive and distorted figures in his paintings point to human faults, and fights between the good and the evil. Metaphor of human weakness is expressed in the presentations of animals which, like in fables, reveal the identity of human characters. He pulled out the monsters of his life abyss and placed them on the canvas raw. This contour of his soul in the claws of absurd is created in pain, momentarily and expressively. He embodied all his conflicts in united forces which emerge from the abyss of wandering souls. With his infantile lust for power over his surroundings, Barbarian gets rid of the feeling of inferiority in the very creative act. It was only then that he domineered and achieved intellectual balance, and belonged to himself. Thanks to characteristic pictorial language of expressive and raw artistic articulation he introduced a wealth of inventiveness in art brut, i.e. outsider art in Serbia. Besides Vojislav Jakic, Sava Sekulić and Ilija Bosilj Bašičevic, he can be considered a worldly classic.

## Exhibitions and awards

Among the most significant world exhibitions where he participated were certainly those in Paris and Bratislava, among which the Triennials and Biennials in Slovakia and Serbia were most noteworthy. He received many awards and recognition, the most remarkable being Grand Prix for painting at the Thirteenth Biennial of Naïve and Marginal Art in Jagodina, Serbia in 2007. The greatest collection of his paintings is at Museum of Naïve and Marginal Art (MNMA), Jagodina, Serbia.
