George Foggo (1793–1869) was a historical painter, born in London on 14 April 1793.

Foggo received his early education with his brother, James Foggo, in Paris, and joined him in London in 1819, after which the two were inseparably associated in their work and life. They founded a society for obtaining free access to English museums, public edifices, and works of art, of which the Duke of Sussex was president, Joseph Hume chairman of committees, and George Foggo honorary secretary. He also worked as a lithographer with his brother, and they lithographed their large picture of Parga and other original works; in 1828 he published by himself a set of large lithographs from the cartoons by Raphael. Foggo published in 1844 a catalogue of the pictures of the National Gallery, with critical remarks, the first attempt to make the collection intelligible to the public.

Together with his brother, he was an unsparing critic of the Royal Academy and its system of education, and published some pamphlets on the subject. He was associated with other plans for the advancement of art, and was a man of great energy. He also published in 1853 the Adventures of Sir J. Brooke, Rajah of Sarawak.

He died in London 26 September 1869, aged 76, and was buried with his brother James on the western side of Highgate Cemetery.

E.R. Amantino (also known as Boito) is a Brazilian firearms manufacturer founded in 1955 at the city of Veranópolis, in the state of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. The company is well known for its double barrelled shotguns marketed and distributed in the United States under the Stoeger brand.

The company was founded and named after João Boito, an Italian blacksmith living in Brazil that used to manufacture handmade shotguns among his other works. During the 1950s, Boito met Elias Ruas Amantino, a local businessman who proposed a special partnership to establish the E.R. Amantino & Cia Ltda., a local company focused on manufacturing single and double barreled shotguns for hunting purposes. In 1962, the company released their first coach gun model.

In 1977, the company founded its subsidiary Microvera, a metal processing and microfusion specialized plant in charge to produce parts for Boito's shotguns and custom parts for other guns on the South American market.

International marketing 
Between the mid-1970s and 1980s, Boito started to export and sell its shotguns in the United States under K-Mart's brand. The company and its models were criticized by the customers due to its low quality products.

Since 2013, it is the official representative of the Italian manufacturer Benelli in Brazilian's market.  However, E.R. Amantino exports around 70% of its production to the United States, Australia, Canada, New Zealand, South Africa, and Argentina, among other countries. Boito shotguns can be found in over 24 countries over the world.

Virgilio Mattoni de la Fuente (1842–1923) was a painter of post-romantic realism and a central figure in the modern Andalusian school of painters.

Biography
Mattoni was born in Seville on 30 January 1842. He was the son of Felipe Mattoni and María Lutgarda de la Fuente.

Mattoni trained at the Provincial School of Fine Arts in Seville from 1856 to 1868.  Among his teachers were Eduardo Cano, recognized for his historical paintings and winner of the National Exhibition of Fine Arts of 1856, and Joaquín Domínguez Bécquer, another representative of the Sevillian pictorial school of the second half of the 19th century. He completed his studies at the Chigi Academy in Rome, between 1872 and 1874.

He returned to the Santa Cruz neighborhood of Seville and opened a studio there.  In 1886, Mattoni was named a member of the Royal Academy of Fine Arts of San Fernando de Madrid. In 1887, he was chosen as a faculty member of the Painting Section of the Provincial School of Fine Arts of Seville which became part of the University of Seville. In 1917, Mattoni was appointed Director of the Academy of the Applied Arts.

Mattoni died on 20 January 1923 in Seville at the age of 80.

Work
Mattoni produced portraits and paintings with religious and historical themes. He also published articles on art history and was recognized as a gifted writer and poet.  Commissioned to paint murals and altarpieces in a number of religious settings, Mattoni experimented with medieval techniques of gilding and embossing and used color and light as compositional elements. In 1881, he was awarded the Second Medal of the National Exhibition of Fine Arts for his painting Las termas de Caracalla.  Although his view of the ancient Imperial thermal complex of the early third century CE, informed by his previous visit to Rome, cannot be matched with any archaeological evidence from the existing ruins, it is considered his most important work.  Mattoni won the Third Medal in 1887 for his painting Las postrimerías de Fernando III el Santo which depicts Ferdinand III's last moments of agony as described in the Chronicle of Spain written by his son, Alfonso X the Wise.

Ernst Victor Engwall was a Swedish businessman, merchant and second heir of the Engwall family.

Biography 
Ernst Victor Engwall, the eldest son of Victor Theodor Engwall, joined the company in 1875. He became CEO at Vict. Th. Engwall & Co. in 1882. Ernst Engwall focused the company's operations on coffee and food.

Ernst Engwall served as a member of the Gefle City Council from 1886 to 1915. In the political sphere he became acquainted with John Rettig, who at the time was a candidate as member of parliament. In 1886, Ernst Engwall helped  John Rettig to take over the family company P.C. Rettig & Co, the employer of Jonas Engwall.

In 1888, Ernst Victor Engwall was announced as board member of Gefleborgs Läns Sparbank. In 1889, the Engwall family became principal shareholders of Gefleborgs Läns Sparbank, a previously government owned entity.    

In 1899, Ernst Engwall became vice-chairman of Gefleborgs Enskilda Bank. The board members of the bank was Per Edward Rettig, brother to John Rettig; Carl Waldemar Berggren, uncle-in-law to Knut Emil Engwall and chairman of the Engwall funded AB Gävle-Dala Järnväg; and Carl Gustaf Ericson, brother to Werner Ericson, business partner and close friend of Knut Emil Engwall. After Ernst Engwall became vice-chairman he installed John Rettig as chairman of the bank.

Ernst Victor Engwall was able to fund the family's projects through the bank. After Ernst became vice-chairman, the Engwall family saw rapid growth, financing Borgarskolan, as well as the construction of Gevaliapalatset.

The Engwalls involvement with Rettig, Berggren, and Ericson during the 20th century has since been scrutinized due to monopolistic business practices.

In 1905, Importbolaget Vict. Th. Engwall Co was restructured and benefited from the colonial frenzy of the early 20th century. In 1913, Ernst Engwall oversaw the acquisition of the first coffee roasting machine.

Ernst Victor Engwall, together with his younger brothers, Knut Emil Engwall and Carl Fredrik Engwall, founded the Middle Swedish Chamber of Commerce, an investment arm that currently encompasses a $14 billion logistics network.

In 1915, Ernst Victor Engwall passed away. Under Ernst leadership The business expanded beyond a trading house, and ventured into various industries, including mills and a shipping company. One notable vessel acquired by Vict. Th. Engwall Co under his leadership was named Gevalia, the Latin name for Gävle. The Engwalls coffee brand Gevalia was named after the vessel.

Asselar man is a Later Stone Age skeleton discovered by Theodore Monod and Wladimir Besnard (in various sources incorrectly named M.M. Besnard or M.V. Besnard) in 1927, in the Adrar des Ifoghas. The massif is located near Essouk in what is now the Kidal Region of Mali. Wickliffe Draper funded the expedition.

The Asselar specimen has been dated to around 6,400 BP, making it no older than the Holocene. Along with such fossils as Iwo Eleru (11,000 BP) and Ishango (8,000 BP), which were excavated from archaeological sites in West and Central Africa, Asselar is one of the earliest known anatomically modern human skeletons, with negroid phenotype, living in sub Saharan Africa. Older fossils with a similar morphology have also been found near Khartoum, dated to between 8,000 and 5,000 BC.

Due there being no specific publication or reference found in and among existing academic literature, beyond simple mention (e.g., Cheikh Anta Diop in 1968), which provides contextualizing explanation for the dating of the Asselar remains at 6390 BP, as well as the absence of data on the femur used to generate the date and the degree of error that 1960s-era carbon-14 dating methods can produce, the date of 6390 BP provided for the Asselar remains is regarded as meriting caution in its consideration and use. More recently, in the 1980s, geological dating from the Asselar site in the Saharan region of northern Mali has produced a date for the Asselar remains as being between 9500 BP and 7000 BP, amid the early Holocene Wet Phase.

The Asselar individual was found near what, during the time of the African Humid Period, was likely a lake. Medical imaging techniques of the skeleton and surrounding matrix show that the Asselar individual was likely intentionally buried, rather than having been drowned and subsequently buried by accident as originally thought. Human remains found buried in similar anatomical positions have been found at other early Holocene sites such as Hassi-el-Abiod in Mali.

"Goodbye Little Darlin', Goodbye" (also known as "Goodby Little Darlin") is a song co-written and originally recorded by Gene Autry. Autry sang it in the 1939 movie South of Border, and in April 1940 released it on a 78 rpm record.

The song would be notably recorded by Johnny Cash.

The song was recorded by Cash at Sun Records probably on December 13, 1956, and released as a single (Sun 331, with "You Tell Me" on the opposite side) in September 1959, when he had already left the label for Columbia.

Background 
According to John M. Alexander's book The Man in Song: A Discographic Biography of Johnny Cash, the song wasn't released as a single:

The Improvisatore () is an autobiographical novel by Hans Christian Andersen (1805–1875). First published in 1835, it was an immediate success and is considered to be Andersen's breakthrough. The story, reflecting Andersen's own travels in Italy in 1833, reveals much about his own life and aspirations as experienced by Antonio, the novel's principal character.

Background 
In September 1833, with financial support from Danish well-wishers, Andersen embarked on a cultural trip to Italy. Deeply impressed with everything he experienced and influenced by Madame de Staël's "Corinne ou l'Italie", he began writing his travel tale, The Improvisatore. It was published by Reitzels Forlag in 1835. An immediate success and Andersen's breakthrough, the following year it was published in Germany and, in 1838, in France. For many years, The Improvisatore was the most widely read of all of Andersen's works.

Plot 
In this fictionalized autobiography, the hero Antonio does not arrive as a tourist but grows up in Italy, thus able to show not just the sunny side of life but also some of its shadows. In its structure, the novel reflects Andersen's own life and his travels through Italy. The descriptions of the Italian towns and regions are particularly captivating, expressed in the author's colourful language. Like Andersen himself, Antonio comes from a poor background but fights his way through various crises and amorous relationships until he is finally successful. The last improvisation involves a fishing boat accident in which many lose their lives. But finally Antonio becomes the happy husband of the beautiful young Lara as well as a landowner in Calabria.
