النوبختي

النوبختي
أبو محمّد الحسن بن موسى النوبختي، متكلّم وفيلسوف، من أعلام الشيعة الإمامية في القرنين الثالث والرابع الهجريين.
تأثر بالفكر المعتزلي حتى أنّ ابن النديم ذكر أن كلا من المعتزلة والشيعة كانت تدّعي أنّه منها.
نسبه وحياته
آل نوبخت أُسرة فارسيّة الأصل وهي إحدى الأسر الأصيلة الّتي أسلمت في زمن الدولة العباسية وتعدّ من أبرز الاسر الشيعية في عصر الغيبة الصغرى التي تصدى الكثير من رجالها للإمارة.
ينتسب الحسن بن موسى إلى آل نوبخت من جهة الأمّ فحسب فهو ابن أخت أبي سهل النوبختي من كبار متكلمي الشيعة، ولم يذكر أحد شيئاً عن انتسابه إليهم من جهة الأب حتّى لو فُرض أنّ أباه كان من أفراد الأُسرة.
لم يعرف تاريخ ولادته ووفاته وقد ذكرهما ابن النديم في الفهرست إلا أنّ النسخة المطبوعة خالية منها؛ وبما أن النجاشي قد حدد زمن أسرة آل نوبخت بما قبل عام 300 هجرية وما بعدها مما يكشف عن كون الرجل أدرك العقود الأولى من القرن الرابع.
مؤلفاته
لم يصل من كتبه الا كتاب فرق الشيعة ، مؤلفاته التي لم تصلنا:
كتاب الآراء
كتاب الديانات
وغيرها من المصنّفات . ذكر له ابن النديم أكثر من أربعين كتاباً، وذكر المؤرخون أنه توفي في حدود سنة 310هـ/ 922م. قال الذهبي في سير أعلام النبلاء:
ذكره مُحَمَّدُ بنُ إِسْحَاقَ النَّدِيْم، وَابْنُ النَّجَّار بِلاَ وَفَاة.
وَله كتَابُ (الآرَاء)، و(الديَانَات)، وكتَاب (الرَّدِّ عَلَى التَّنَاسخيَّة)، وكتَابُ (التَّوحيد وَحَدَث العَالَم)، وكتَابُ (الإِمَامَة) وَأَشيَاء.

United Nations Security Council Resolution 1213

United Nations Security Council Resolution 1213
United Nations Security Council resolution 1213, adopted unanimously on 3 December 1998, after reaffirming Resolution 696 (1991) and all subsequent resolutions on Angola, including resolutions 846 (1993), 1127 (1997) and 1173 (1998), the Council extended the mandate of the United Nations Observer Mission in Angola (MONUA) for a final time until 26 February 1999.
The Security Council condemned the failure of UNITA to implement the remaining tasks of the Lusaka Protocol including the demilitarisation of its forces and the extension of state administration throughout the country. It was concerned that the leader of UNITA, Jonas Savimbi, had not responded to proposals for the restoration of the peace process by the Special Representative of the Secretary-General. There was a serious humanitarian impact brought about by the impasse in the peace process which had consequences on the security of the country.
The resolution reiterated that the primary cause of the political crisis in Angola was due to the failure of UNITA to comply with its obligations under various peace agreements and Security Council resolutions. Furthermore, it demanded that it complete the demilitarisation of its forces and withdraw from territories it occupied through military means; there could be no military solution to the conflict and both parties were urged to seek a political settlement. Additionally, UNITA was urged to co-operate with MONUA in the withdrawal of MONUA personnel from Andulo and Bailundo. Law enforcement had to be strengthened and human rights respected.
The humanitarian situation continued to worsen, including the rise in the number of internally displaced persons, increased mine laying. The Angolan government and particularly UNITA were urged to guarantee the safety of United Nations and humanitarian personnel and permit humanitarian aid to be delivered to the affected population, cease mine laying activities and respect international humanitarian law.
Finally, the Secretary-General Kofi Annan was requested to report back to the Council no later 15 January 1999 on the future of MONUA and the United Nations presence in Angola, and on ways of improving the effectiveness of sanctions imposed against UNITA in previous resolutions.

جبل صهيون

جبل صهيون
جبل صِهْيَوْن هو تلة تقع في جنوب- غرب مدينة القدس القديمة وخارج الأسوار، إلا أنه جزء لا يتجزأ من المدينة. تاريخ الجبل بدأت بالفعل خلال اليبوسيين الكنعانيين، وما زال حتى يومنا هذا. وتقع هذه المواقع الهامة في جبال اليهودية والمسيحية والإسلام، ويكون له مواقع التراث معركة والمتاحف والمقابر. وفقا لتقاليد الديانات الثلاث، وهيكل يقع في الجبل، هو مكان دفن الملك داود. مصطلح «الصهيونية» اسمها من الجبل.
دير صهيون وفرسان الهيكل.
جاء عن دير صهيون أنه: يعود إلى أملاك الرهبان الفرنسيسكان، ويتجاور مع عدد من الأماكن المقدسة التابعة لهم فوق جبل صهيون، وقد حصل هؤلاء الرهبان من السلطات الأيوبية على حق توليهم رعاية الأماكن المقدسة، وفي عام 736هـ/ 1335م أتيحت لهم فرصة توسيع مقرهم وبناء دير صهيون الذي ضم علية صهيون وكنيستها، وكذلك الأماكن المسيحية الأخرى المجاورة لها فوق الجبل. ويؤيد تاريخ بناء الدير الأب سوريانو الذي تولى رئاسة هذه الطائفة، ويقول في تأريخه لها: "إنه بسقوط عكا عام 1291م في أيدي المسلمين وخروج الصليبيين من بلاد الشام أجبر الفرنسيسكان على أن ينسحبوا إلى جزيرة قبرص، وظلوا يتحينون الفرصة لكي يعودوا إلى الأرض المقدسة، وقد تم لهم ذلك عام 1335م. ومن خلال ما حصلوا عليه من تصريح استطاعوا أن يؤسسوا ديراً لهم في جبل صهيون، وقد اختار أبناء هذه الطائفة رئيساً لهم أطلق عليه "حارس جبل صهيون".
ارتبط تاريخ الرهبان الفرنسيسكان في بيت المقدس بإقامتهم في جبل صهيون في هذا الدير وغيره من المقدسات المسيحية فوق الجبل، ويروي بعض المؤرخين الغربيين أن عدد الرهبان الفرنسيسكان في دير صهيون بذلك الحين كان يبلغ اثنين وأربعين راهباً، وبدأ عددهم يتناقص بشكل ملحوظ في أواخر عهد المماليك، ففي سنة 913 ه‍/ 1427م كان عددهم في الدير لا يزيد على العشرين، وقد حرص المماليك على حماية هؤلاء، فقد جرى العرف أن يقيم معهم في ديرهم بجبل صهيون إثنا عشر مملوكاً بصفة دائمة، وعاش رهبان دير صهيون حياة الزهد والتقشف، وبدأت أحوالهم بالتحسن عن طريق التبرعات الغربية للدير الذي كان يقوم باستقبال ورعاية الحجاج، وبعد دعم وتأييد ملوك الغرب الفرنجي استطاعوا أن يشتروا بعض المنازل والأراضي المحيطة بالدير الخاص بهم، وقد رمم هذا الدير وتوسعت عمارته في عهد كل سلاطين المماليك بدءاً من برقوق وابنه فرج وبرسباي وقايتباي والغوري، وعن الأهمية التي اكتسبها دير صهيون في العهد المملوكي تذكر المصادر أن مهمة استقبال الحجاج الغربيين ومرافقتهم ألى الأماكن المقدسة كانت بيد رئيس رهبان دير صهيون، ولم يستطع الحجاج مبارحة سفنهم التي تقلهم إلى ميناء يافا إلا بعد حضور أمير الرملة ونائب السطنة بالقدس ورئيس دير صهيون، وكان هذا الأخير الكفيل لهؤلاء الحجاج، فضلا عن كونه مرشداً لهم من يافا إلى بيت المقدس، وكان يشترط على الحجاج إظهار احترامهم لدير الرهبان الفرنسيسكان في جبل صهيون، وأن يقدموا المساعدات من هبات وصدقات إلى الدير.

Copperband butterflyfish

Copperband butterflyfish
The copperband butterflyfish (Chelmon rostratus), also known as the beaked coral fish, is found in reefs in both the Pacific and Indian Oceans. This butterflyfish is one of the three species that make up the genus Chelmon and all have long beaks.
Description
These fish are easily identified by the yellow banding and long snout. The young fish are similar in appearance to adult fish. Butterflyfish grow up to 20 cm in length. The fish appears taller than its length because of its compressed, deep-bodied form with a long dorsal and posterior fins as well as its vertical yellow stripes on a white background. The snout is long and slender, and the dark eye of the fish is less conspicuous than the dark eye-spot on the dorsal fin. The base of the tail features a dark band that runs perpendicular to the tail.
Butterflyfish may be distinguished from the similar C. marginalis by their color pattern and number of dorsal fin rays.
Habitat
Copperband butterflyfish are found at depths of 1−25 metres either alone or in pairs. These fish form monogamous pairs during breeding. They are usually found on coral reefs or rocky shorelines, and also in estuaries and silty inner reefs. This species is territorial and oviparous.
In the aquarium
Copperband butterflyfish can grow to 8 inches (20 cm) but in a home aquarium are usually half that size. They do well at a normal reef temperature range of 75 to 84 °F (24 to 29 °C), with a tank size of at least 75 gallons and plenty of live rock to graze on. This species can be considered reef safe. It will eat many invertebrates, including parasitic forms such as tubeworms, Calliactis parasitica and common glass anemone (Aiptasia, parasitic anemone). Many aquarists introduce the Copperband Butterfly just to get rid of these pests without giving consideration to their long term needs for survival. Given a choice, Aiptasia is the least favored food. The butterflyfish preys on all tube and substrate worms, clams, and mollusks. This is not a recommended fish for inexperienced aquarists, as it requires excellent tank conditions to thrive or even survive.

Dan Mathews

Dan Mathews (born October 24, 1964) is the senior vice president of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals. He is known for creating PETA's most newsworthy campaigns, including the "I'd Rather Go Naked Than Wear Fur" ads, as well as campaigns involving celebrities such as Alec Baldwin, Pamela Anderson, Pink, and Paul McCartney. He has been profiled by the NY Times, USA Today, and Wall St. Journal and has lectured on animal rights and veganism at Harvard, Princeton, Columbia, Oxford and Cambridge.
Mathews is best known for heading PETA's successful fashion campaigns, having persuaded designers like Michael Kors and Calvin Klein to stop using fur, and working with Tim Gunn to promote animal-free materials at Fashion Week events and through programs at the Council of Fashion Designers of America (CFDA). In 2020, Mathews convinced Tommy Hilfiger to ban exotic animal skins after reports showed that the wild animal trade posed risks to spawning zoonotic diseases like COVID-19.
In 2000, Mathews was named by gay lifestyle magazine Genre as one of the most influential people of the new millennium, and in 2007, Mathews was ranked 37th in Out magazine's "50 Most Powerful Gay Men and Women in America".
Mathews has written two acclaimed memoirs published by Atria/Simon & Schuster. Committed: A Rabble-Rouser's Memoir was published in the US and Australia in 2007, and in the UK, Italy, Germany and France over the following decade. "Committed is a bold, offbeat globe-trotting memoir that shows how the most ridiculed punching bag in high school became an internationally renowned crusader for the most downtrodden individuals of all - animals". Like Crazy: Life with my Mother and her Invisible Friends was published in 2020. In this book, Mathews writes about caring for his clever, schizophrenic mother in her last years. In a starred review, Publishers Weekly wrote "Mathews conveys potentially heavy and gut-wrenching family crises with page-turning style and heaps of wit." In 2021, Jeopardy host and neurologist Mayim Bialik featured Mathews on her mental health podcast Bialik's Breakdown to launch the paperback edition of "Like Crazy".

Percy Dawson (footballer)

Percy Dawson (footballer)
Percival Hall Dawson (born 4 December 1889 – 1974) was an English footballer who played as a centre forward. He played in the Scottish Football League for Heart of Midlothian and in the English Football League for Blackburn Rovers, moving between them in 1914 for what is believed to be a record transfer fee at the time.
Career
Dawson was born in Cullercoats. Early on in his football career, he played for non-league sides Whitley Athletic and North Shields before moving to Scottish club Heart of Midlothian in 1911. In 1913, however, Hearts were required to sell Dawson in order to fund improvements to their Tynecastle Stadium, and he was transferred to Blackburn Rovers for a fee of £2,500 – a fee which several sources claim was a then world record transfer fee.
In his first season with Blackburn, he contributed to the club winning the English First Division, and helped them to a third-place finish the following season.
The outbreak of World War I brought about an end to professional football in England for four seasons. After serving as a sergeant in the Royal Garrison Artillery during the war, Dawson returned to Blackburn and remained with the club until 1922. He played four matches for Barrow in 1923 before retiring from football.

List of Italian concentration camps

List of Italian concentration camps
Italian concentration camps include camps from the Italian colonial wars in Africa as well as camps for the civilian population from areas occupied by Italy during World War II. Memory of both camps were subjected to "historical amnesia". The repression of memory led to historical revisionism in Italy and in 2003 the Italian media published Silvio Berlusconi's statement that Benito Mussolini only "used to send people on vacation".
Colonial wars
There were numerous war crimes conducted by the Italian Army in the colonies. In Cyrenaica alone between 1929 and 1933 over 40,000 people were killed and 80,000 locked up in concentration camps, out of a total population of just 193,000. According to the historian Ilan Pappé, the fascist regime between 1928 and 1932 killed half the Bedouin population either directly or by starvation in the fields. According to the historian Angelo Del Boca, in 1933, of the approximately 100,000 Libyans deported from Jebel Achdar and Marmarica, more than 40,000 died in the camps.

Naxos (city)

Naxos (city)
Naxos is a city and a former municipality on the island of Naxos, in the Cyclades, Greece. Since the 2011 local government reform it is part of the municipality Naxos and Lesser Cyclades, of which it is the seat and a municipal unit. The municipal unit has 12,726 inhabitants, and the community 7,374 inhabitants (2011 census). The Naxos municipal unit covers an area of . It is located on the west side of Naxos Island in the Cyclades island group in the Aegean. It was the centre of archaic Cycladic culture. It shares the island of Naxos with the municipal unit of Drymalia.
History
Ancient Greek Naxos
During the 8th and 7th centuries BC, Naxos dominated commerce in the Cyclades.
Revolt of Naxos
In 502 BC the inhabitants of Naxos rebelled against their masters in the Persian Empire; this revolt led to the larger Ionian Revolt, and then to the Persian War between Greece and Persia.
The Dukes of Naxos
In the aftermath of the Fourth Crusade, with a Latin Emperor under the influence of the Venetians established at Constantinople, the Venetian Marco Sanudo conquered the island and soon captured the rest of the islands of the Cyclades, establishing himself as Duke of Naxia, or Duke of the Archipelago. Twenty-one dukes in two dynasties (Crispo) ruled the Archipelago, until 1566; Venetian rule continued in scattered islands of the Aegean until 1714.
Ottoman Naxos (1564–1821)
The Ottoman administration remained essentially in the hands of the Venetians; the Porte's concern was satisfied by the returns of taxes. Very few Turks ever settled on Naxos, and Turkish influence on the island is slight. Turkish sovereignty lasted until 1821, when the islands revolted; Naxos finally became a member of the Greek state in 1832.
