Online Etymology Dictionary
The Online Etymology Dictionary (Etymonline) is a free online dictionary, written and compiled by Douglas R. Harper, that describes the origins of English-language words.
Description
Douglas Harper, an American Civil War historian and copy editor for LNP Media Group, compiled the etymology dictionary to record the history and evolution of more than 50,000 words, including slang and technical terms. The core body of its etymology information stems from The Barnhart Dictionary of Etymology by Robert Barnhart, Ernest Klein's Comprehensive Etymology Dictionary of the English Language, The Middle English Compendium, The Oxford English Dictionary, and the 1889–1902 Century Dictionary. Harper also researches on digital archives. On the Etymonline homepage, Harper says that he considers himself "essentially and for the most part" a compiler and evaluator of etymology research made by others.
Reviews and reputation
The Online Etymology Dictionary has been referenced by Oxford University's "Arts and Humanities Community Resource" catalog as "an excellent tool for those seeking the origins of words" and cited in the Chicago Tribune as one of the "best resources for finding just the right word". It is cited in academic work as a useful, though not definitive, reference for etymology. In addition, it has been used as a data source for quantitative scholarly research.

Marcelo Gonçalves

Marcelo Gonçalves Costa Lopes, usually known simply as Marcelo Gonçalves (born 22 February 1966 in Rio de Janeiro, Rio de Janeiro state) is a Brazilian former footballer who played as a central defender. He was effective on low balls, and was well known because of his long hair, a recognisable hairstyle which he wore for most of his career, and which he only cut during the 1997 FIFA Confederations Cup, when all the Brazilian players entered the field in the semifinal match with shaved heads.
Club career
Gonçalves started his career at Flamengo in 1987. However, he rose to fame playing for Botafogo and was first called up to play for the Brazil national team with the latter club.
In addition to playing for Botafogo and Flamengo, Gonçalves also played for Santa Cruz, Cruzeiro, Internacional, and Mexican club Tecos. With Botafogo he won the Brazilian championship in 1995, the Carioca championship in 1990 and in 1997, and the Rio-São Paulo championship in 1998; with Tecos (Universidad Autónoma de Guadalajara), he won the Mexican championship in 1994, and the CONCACAF Cup Winners' Cup in 1995.
He scored the match-winning goal for Botafogo in the club's 1–0 win against Vasco da Gama in the 1997 Taça Guanabara final. Gonçalves also played for Cruzeiro in the club's 2–0 defeat to German side Borussia Dortmund in the 1997 Intercontinental Cup final.
International career
At international level, Gonçalves won the Copa América with the Brazil national team in 1997, as well as the Confederations Cup in the same year. He was mainly a reserve player in Brazil's squad during the 1998 FIFA World Cup, appearing against Norway and Chile, as the team went on to reach the final. In total, he was capped 24 times for Brazil, scoring just one goal.
After football
Gonçalves is currently the executive director of Estácio de Sá, a Rio de Janeiro football club.

اللجنة الأوروبية للتقييس الكهروتقني

اللجنة الأوروبية للتقييس الكهروتقني و يرمز لها أيضا بالرمز CENELEC هي المسؤولة عن التقييس الأوروبي في مجال الهندسة الكهربائية. جنبا إلى جنب مع المعهد الأوروبي لمعايرة الاتصالات (اتصال عن بعد) و CEN (المجالات الفنية الأخرى) ، فإنها تشكل النظام الأوروبي للتوحيد القياسي التقني. يتم اعتماد المعايير المنسقة من قبل هذه الوكالات بانتظام في العديد من البلدان خارج أوروبا والتي تتبع المعايير الفنية الأوروبية. على الرغم من أن اللجنة الأوروبية للتقييس الكهروتقني تعمل بشكل وثيق مع الاتحاد الأوروبي ، إلا أنها ليست مؤسسة تابعة للاتحاد الأوروبي. ومع ذلك فإن معاييرها هي معايير الاتحاد الأوروبي والمنطقة الاقتصادية الأوروبية ، وذلك بفضل لائحة الاتحاد الأوروبي رقم 1025/2012.
تأسست اللجنة الأوروبية للتقييس الكهروتقني "CENELEC" في عام 1973. قبل ذلك كانت هناك منظمتان مسؤولتان عن التقييس الكهروتقني: CENELCOM و CENEL. CENELEC هي منظمة غير ربحية بموجب القانون البلجيكي ، ومقرها في بروكسل. الأعضاء هم هيئات التقييس الوطنية الكهروتقنية لمعظم الدول الأوروبية.

Encyclopaedia Islamica

Encyclopaedia Islamica
The Encyclopaedia Islamica is an encyclopedia on Islamic and Iranian studies published by Brill, comprising a projected 16-volume translation of selected articles from the new Persian Dā'erat-ol-Ma'āref-e Bozorg-e Eslāmi ("The Great Islamic Encyclopaedia"), supplemented by additional articles written in English by scholars affiliated with the Institute of Ismaili Studies.
The Persian-language project has been led by Kazem Mousavi-Bojnourdi since 1983, when the Center for the Great Islamic Encyclopedia was established in Teheran for the purpose of constituting a scientific committee to oversee its creation. The project, which provides comprehensive coverage of Shia Islam has sparked considerable interest in the Islamic world and is being consulted by many Persian-speaking scholars of Islamic studies. As of 2016, the encyclopedia is at the ninth letter of the Persian alphabet and its 22nd completed volume.
Brill's Encyclopaedia Islamica, which is edited by Farhad Daftary and Wilferd Madelung, is currently at its fifth volume. It was begun in 2008 and is expected to be completed in 2023. It is intended for advanced graduate students and scholars who require meticulous documentation.

مشاة البحرية إيرهاردت

مشاة البحرية إيرهاردت عبارة عن مجموعة فرايكوربس مكونة من حوالي 6000 رجل شكلها النقيب (كورفيتنكابيتان) هيرمان إيرهاردت في أعقاب الحرب العالمية الأولى، والمعروف أيضًا باسم لواء مشاة البحرية الثاني أو لواء إيرهارت. شارك في القتال من أجل مدن وسط ألمانيا والموانئ الشمالية الغربية، بالإضافة إلى المشاركة في انقلاب كاب.
تم تشكيل اللواء من أفراد البحرية السابقين في منطقة Generalkommando des Garde-Korps (برلين). كان يقودها القومي المحافظ هيرمان إرهاردت وقاتل إلى جانب Freiw. Landesschützenkorps بقيادة الجنرال فون رودر في استرداد السيطرة على موانئ شمال غرب ألمانية مثل بريمن وكوكسهافن وفيلهلمسهافن في أوائل 1919. بعد هزيمة القوات الشيوعية الشمالية سار اللواء إلى المدن الصناعية بوسط ألمانيا (جنبا إلى جنب مع Freiw. Landesjägerkorps ، I Marine Brigade ، Freikorps Hülsen ، Freikorps Görlitz و Freikorps von Oven) لقمع الانتفاضات الشيوعية المحلية.
بعد سحق الانتفاضات، استمر اللواء في قتال الجمهورية السوفيتية البافارية خلال ربيع 1919. لم يكن سوى جزء صغير من مجموع قوات الفيلق الحر، التي بلغ مجموعها حوالي 30,000 رجل. في نهاية أبريل تم إغلاق الفيلق الحر في ميونيخ. بدأ الحرس الأحمر في القبض على «المعارضين للثورة» المشتبه بهم، وفي 29 إبريل / نيسان، أُعدم ثمانية رجال، بينهم الأمير جوستاف ذي ثورن. بعد فترة وجيزة، في 3 مايو، هاجم الفيلق الحر المتطوعين الشيوعيين وهزموهم بعد معارك مريرة في الشوارع قتل فيها أكثر من 1000 شيوعي. تم إلقاء القبض على حوالي 800 رجل وامرأة وإعدامهم من قبل الفيلق الحر المنتصر.
[ بحاجة لمصدر ]
في أغسطس 1919، ذهب اللواء إلى سيليزيا العليا، حيث حاول القوميون البولنديون ضم المنطقة بالقوة إلى بولندا. قام الفيلق الحر المحلي، الذي عززته مجموعات مثل اللواء ولواء مشاة البحرية الثالث، بقمع الانتفاضة السيليزية الأولى بسهولة.

Murad Alyan

Murad Alyan (born December 7, 1977) Is a ex Palestinian professional football player.
Career
Alyan grew up in Jerusalem as an Arab citizen of Israel. He joined Hapoel Jerusalem's youth set-up in 1986 as a nine-year-old after spending time with his neighborhood side Beit Safafa. While at Hapoel Jerusalem, Alyan was leading scorer at almost every youth level. He signed his first contract with Beitar Ironi Maale Adumim in 2002 scoring 18 goals, making him the team's leading scorer. In the 2003–04 season, Alyan joined Bnei Lod and helped them win Liga Bet by scoring 24 goals, a team high. The next season, he joined Ironi Ness Ziona (later renamed Sektzia Ness Ziona) and helped them win promotion to Liga Alef by scoring 28 goals. His prolific scoring at the lower levels of the Israeli League, prompted his former team, Hapoel Bnei Lod, now in Liga Artzit to re-sign him. His 11 goals helped Lod achieve a third successive promotion, to the second tier of the Israeli league Liga Leumit. He spent the next two seasons at Beitar Shimshon Tel Aviv F.C. who were playing in the third tier at the time. His final season with the club, saw him go on loan to Maccabi Kfar Qara.
In 2009, he signed his first fully fledged professional contract with Jerusalem-based Hilal Al-Quds. He scored 15 goals in his first season and finished as the West Bank Premier League top scorer. In his second season, he again finished top scorer with 20 goals in the league, he also managed an astonishing 13 goals in the Palestine FA Cup, leading Hilal Al-Quds to the title. He had a total of 35 goals in all three domestic competitions in 2010–11.
He clinched the Golden Boot for the third straight season in 2011–12 with 15 goals over the course of the 18-game season.
International career
Alyan received his first official cap for Palestine in the qualifying round of the 2012 AFC Challenge Cup. This call-up came only months after Mousa Bezaz publicly announced he would not consider Alyan due to his age. In his first game against Bangladesh, he scored two goals in a 2–0 win over Bangladesh. In the following game against the Philippines he saw one of his shots hit the post. He continued his fine run of form two days later against Myanmar where he scored Palestine's opening and final goals of the match.

Martí Galindo

Martí Galindo Girol (May 21, 1937 – March 3, 2019) was a Spanish theatre actor, who became best known as a collaborator of the television programme Crónicas marcianas, in which he starred from 1997 to 2002.
Biography
Due to his short height he usually played the role of children in plays. In 1986 he played the role of Martí, the book eater vampire in the TV programme Planeta imaginario on TVE. He also appeared in comedy sketches in the programme Ahí te quiero ver. From 1997 to 2002 he became well known in Spain for appearing on the late-night show Crónicas marcianas.
The show's presenter, Xavier Sardà, knew Galindo through his sister Rosa María, and knowing his roles as children, Galindo was asked to appear like a Martian on the show. "Señor Galindo", as he became known, retired from the show as Crónicas enjoyed its best success: he surprised his former co-star Sardà on the chat show ¡Qué tiempo tan feliz! in 2017 in what became his final TV appearance.

Career
Professor Bremer received his doctorate in Botany from Stockholm University in 1976, where he worked as lecturer and research assistant in the department from 1972–1975, and full-time from 1976. In 1979 he was appointed Docent. In 1980 he became Curator at the Museum of Natural History in Stockholm in the Department of Spermatophyte Botany. From 1985–1986 he was also a Research Associate and BA Krukoff Curator of African Botany at the Missouri Botanical Garden.
Following this Bremer was installed as Professor of Systematic Botany at Uppsala University in 1989, where he also became head of the department from 1992 to 1999, and Dean of Biology from 1993–1999. From 2001–2004 he was Secretary for Science and Technology Studies at the Swedish Research Council. In January 2004 he left the University of Uppsala to take up a position as Rector (Vice-Chancellor) at Stockholm University on 1 February that year. He is currently professor of Systematic Botany at that university.
Personal life

In 2006 he received the King's Medal (Hans Majestät Konungens medalj), twelfth level with the Royal Order of the Seraphim (Kungliga Serafimerorden).
The work of the Bremers at Uppsala University became the basis for the modern system of plant taxonomy, known as the Angiosperm Phylogeny Group (APG) formed by them and other international flowering plant systematists. The system was published in 1998 largely based on the work of Bremer et al. at Uppsala University, and was available on the internet in 1996.
Moreover, Bremer is known for several important innovations in phylogenetics (Bremer's support ) and biogeography (ancestral areas analysis ).
