Raapenberg Bird Sanctuary is a  protected area in Cape Town, located on the Liesbeek river near the suburb of Observatory.

The sanctuary consists of a section of the Liesbeek River, with parkland, trees, lawn and picnic sites. It is an important breeding site for a variety of water bird species, such as Sacred Ibis (Threskiornis aethiopicus), Egyptian Geese (Alopochen aegyptiacus) and many duck species. However, the sanctuary is badly overgrown with alien invasive plants which damage the river system and its biodiversity. The river itself is polluted, but is being rehabilitated for recreational activities.

The area is intended to form part of the Two Rivers Urban Park (TRUP), which will include many surrounding areas to form a large, integrated natural area in Cape Town. It will centre on the meeting point of the Liesbeek and Black River and will include several Provincial Heritage Sites, such as: 
 the South African Astronomical Observatory (1827), 
 Valkenberg Homestead (1830)
 Valkenberg Hospital (1899)
 The Nieuwe Molen Windmill 
 The Oude Molen Farmhouse complex

The Rome Street Circuit was a proposed motorsport circuit, to be on the streets of Rome. An initial agreement to host Formula One races starting in 2012 was announced in December 2009, but after a lack of support from residents and no agreement to share the Italian Grand Prix with Monza, the project was abandoned in early 2011.

Layout
The proposed layout depicted a track in the southern outskirts of the city, in the Esposizione Universale Roma area, an area built by Benito Mussolini to host the World Expo in 1942, before it was cancelled by the outbreak of World War II. Bernie Ecclestone said that the track could have had a close proximity to the Vatican, joking that, "every time there is an overtaking manoeuvre, we’re going to put the black smoke up."

The proposed circuit ran over roads near Tre Fontane Abbey, using a route that partially followed the circuit used for the Rome Grand Prix between 1928 and 1930.

History
The history of this project can be traced back to 1984, when the idea was first floated by former Formula Two driver and World Superbike promoter Maurizio Flammini, who then revived the idea in January 2009. Flammini, now the course planner, then gained the support of mayor Gianni Alemanno. Alemanno said that the race would bring €1 billion to the city, and would be a part of the a plan to renew the city's tourist appeal into the future. However, Luca di Montezemolo, president of Ferrari, suggested the idea was unthinkable, and it should only be a one-off event, due to the large number of world-class permanent circuits in Italy, citing Monza, Imola, Mugello, Misano and Vallelunga as examples. In May 2009, Rome launched their plans, beginning a Roma Formula Futuro campaign.

Legacy
In 2018 a street circuit in the EUR district, known as the Circuto Cittadino dell'EUR, hosted the inaugural Rome ePrix for Formula E.

"Sometimes I Feel Like Screaming" is a song on Purpendicular, Deep Purple's first studio album featuring guitarist Steve Morse, which was released in February 1996. The song was released as a CD single with the song "Vavoom: Ted the Mechanic".

This song is considered one of the best tracks recorded by Deep Purple after their reunion in 1984, and it is played frequently in the band's live performances.

Steve Morse remembered the creation process of the song: "“Sometimes I Feel Like Screaming” started as me noodling, playing quietly to myself. Roger and Jon heard what I was doing and said, “What was that, again? Let’s see if it’ll work with this.” It became a song that day. Any idea could grow from a sprout into a tree".

"Sometimes I Feel Like Screaming" was one of the first songs that was recorded with Steve Morse on guitar. It includes a boasting melodic style and vocal outbursts by Ian Gillan and closes with a repeated guitar solo by Morse.

It was part of the following live albums of Deep Purple: Live at The Olympia '96 (1997), Total Abandon: Australia '99 (1999), In Concert with The London Symphony Orchestra (2000), The Soundboard Series (2001), Live at the Rotterdam Ahoy (2002), Live at Montreux 1996 (2006).

Allahverdi Afshar () was a painter in Qajar Iran, who was active from 1815 until after 1825. He belonged to the Qasimlu subgroup of the branch of the Afshar tribe that resided in the city of Urmia.

Allahverdi Afshar, who was active first in his home Urmia and subsequently at the court of crown prince Abbas Mirza in Tabriz, appears to have avoided Tehran's expanding influence, unlike most royal artists of the Qajar era (1779–1925). He oversaw the decoration of Urmia's Chahar Borj, which served as the residence of the hereditary governors who belonged to the same Afshar tribe as the artist. The contemporary American missionary Justin Perkins describes a fresco depicting Abbas Mirza hunting a boar at the palace, but he does not say who the artist was. The theme of the decorating shows that Allahverdi Khan worked on the complex later, during the governorship of Hossein Qoli Khan Beglarbegi Afshar (1797–1821), even though the structure's development began during the Zand era (1751–1794). His extant paintings were created during this period.

Abbas Mirza's heavy dependence on Afshar manpower for his reformed army may have been the reason that Allahverdi managed to join the court.

In 1820, Abbas Mirza sent Allahverdi Afshar to the city of Tbilisi to learn about lithography and to buy the first lithographic printing press that would ever be used in Iran. It is possible that this press in Tabriz printed four volumes of Persian literature that were published between 1825 and 1832.

Dit de l'empereur Constant (Le dit de l'empereour Coustant) is an Old French work about the birth and youth of  Constantine the Great.
It survives in a verse and in a prose version. The verse version has 630 octosyllabic rhyming lines. It survives in a single manuscript,  Det Kongelige Bibliotek, GKS 2061 4°, foll. 149vb-154ra (ed. Wesselofsky, 1877).
The prose version is from  BNF français, 24430.
A critical edition of both versions was published by Coveney (1955). 

Dated to the second half of the 13th century, the work redeploys the motif of the "swan-children" known from earlier romances, as well as a number of episodes known from the  Roman de Silence. It is the earliest known representative of the medieval cycle of legends attached to Constantine the Great.
The narrative follows the following lines: Prophesy to the emperor announcing the wedding of his newly-born daughter with the newly-born son of a commoner, opposition of the emperor against this dishonorable union, attempted infanticide, abandonment and fostering of the child, rediscovery of the young Constantine, renewed attempt at having Constantine killed by sending him as a messenger bearing a "treacherous letter" (advising the recipient to kill the bearer, as in Bellerophon and Amleth),  chance meeting with the emperor's daughter in the imperial gardens, substitution of the traitorous letter with one advising the marriage of the bearer to the princess, and finally the marriage of the hero and his inheritance of the realm.
