# Yeonan Myeong clan

Yeonan Myeong clan (Korean: 연안 명씨; Hanja: 延安 明氏) is one of the Korean clans. Their bongwan is in Yonan County, Hwanghae Province.
According to the research held in 2015, the number of Yeonan Myeong clan’s member was 27133. Their founder was Ming Yuzhen who established the short-lived Ming Xia dynasty in Sichuan, China in 1362.

## History

Ming Sheng was a son of Ming Yuzhen and succeeded Ming Yuzhen’s crown in 1366, but Ming Sheng knuckled under Ming dynasty's Hongwu Emperor in 1371 and was naturalized in Goryeo leading his 27 family members with his mother named Ms. Peng in the following year.
Ming Sheng's descendant was called Seochok Myeong clan. Ming Yuzhen was Seochok Myeong clan’s founder, and Sichuanwas Seochok Myeong clan’s bongwan. Their branch family founded Yeonan Myeong clan and made Yeonan Myeong clan’s bongwan Yonan County.
The Chinese Ming Xia emperor Ming Yuzhen's son Ming Sheng was given the noble title Marquis of Guiyi by the Ming dynasty emperor Zhu Yuanzhang after his surrender. Ming Sheng was then exiled to Korea, and Zhu Yuanzhang asked the Korean king to treat him as a noble by giving his descendants and family corvée and taxation exemptions. These were granted by a patent from the Korean king which lasted until the Qing invasion of Joseon destroyed the Ming family.
In March 1373, the Korean official Yun Hui-chong's daughter married Ming Sheng.
During the Yuan-Ming transition, at least two Chinese nobles were sent to Korea to start families: Ming Sheng of Daxia and Chen Li of Chen Han. Whereas Ming founded the Myeong clan, Chen founded the Yangsan Jin clan.
Ming Sheng was 17 and Chen Li was 21 when they were sent to Korea in 1372 by the Ming dynasty.
The Chinese Ming family exists as the Korean clans, Yeonan Myeong clan, Seochok Myeong clan and Namwon Seung clan.

The rapids formed where the Yukon River flows across and cuts down through lava flows of the Miles Canyon basalt.

# Alexandre de Mérode

Prince Alexandre de Merode (May 24, 1934 – November 19, 2002) was a member of the Belgian princely House of Merode and was the head of drug testing policy for the International Olympic Committee (IOC) until his death.
Merode was born in Etterbeek, Belgium.
Merode's position at the IOC was not without criticism. Following allegations of doping at the 1984 Summer Olympics, samples from suspected drug cheats were never actually tested. The prince claimed that the paperwork was accidentally discarded when the Los Angeles organizing committee converted his temporary office back into a suite immediately after the closing ceremony; however, he has been accused of deliberately destroying the evidence.
Following record-shattering performances by Chinese female swimmers in the 1990s and a doping scandal during the 1998 Tour de France, international sport created the World Anti-Doping Agency, effectively removing control of drug testing from the IOC and Merode.
In 1998, Merode backed up claims that certain athletes were using the controversial abortion doping procedure for performance-enhancing benefits; however, he did not provide any proof.
In May 2000, he tendered his resignation as head of the IOC medical commission; however, he withdrew his resignation when IOC president Juan Antonio Samaranch asked him to stay.
He died of lung cancer on November 19, 2002. He never married.

# Yingli Tower

Yingli Tower, also known as Ying Li International Financial Centre is a skyscraper in the Jiefangbei CBD area of Chongqing, China. Its construction started in 2009 and was completed in 2012. It is an office building with a retail podium. In 2012 Yingli Tower eclipsed the Chongqing World Trade Center to become the tallest building in Western China, although this title was short lived since Chongqing Poly Tower received the title later in the year.

## Architecture

Like traditional American skyscraper design, articulated setbacks are used to separate and taper the vertical shaft of the main body as it rises, similar to the Empire State Building. The tower bears some resemblance to IFC 2 in Hong Kong. Subtle features characteristic in Art Deco design are embedded within the corners of the base and the central main shaft of the tower. Each of the outer corner setbacks are curved outwards. A similar method was reused to form the crown of the building but the design curves inwards instead to form a single pinnacle consisting of a series of tessellated diamonds. This curvature was also applied on the roof design of the retail podium which also curves inwards towards the tower.
