Kesavan's Lamentations (original title: Kesavante Vilapangal) is a 1999 Malayalam novel written by M. Mukundan. The novel tells the story of a writer Kesavan who writes a novel on a child named Appukkuttan who grows under the influence of E. M. S. Namboodiripad.

Plot summary
Written as a story within a story, the book recreates the internal and external chaos involved in the process of Kesavan's writing, as he pens his book, Appukkuttan's Lamentations. The story deals with the life and death of Kesavan as well as with the life and obsessions of the protagonist of Kesavan's book, the boy called Appukkuttan, who deifies E. M. S. Namboodiripad, under whose portrait's gaze he slept and woke as a child. The narrative travels back and forth between Kesavan and Appukkuttan.

Reviews
Citation for the Crossword Book Award by H. S. Shiva Prakash, Subashree Krishnaswamy and Dilip Kumar:

 "Kesavan’s Lamentations is a widely acclaimed work of contemporary fiction in Malayalam, which examines the mystique around E M S Namboodiripad, one of the major icons of Kerala politics. By telescoping divergent narrative positions and techniques in a variety of language registers, Mukundan has created a deeply fascinating novel. Serious and humorous at once, it appeals at different levels to a wide cross-section of readers - an achievement that has earned him the Hutch Crossword Book Award second time around. A J Thomas, well-known translator from Malayalam and an Indian English poet, has recreated successfully in English the resonances and nuances of the source text."

The first World Food Conference was held in Rome in 1974 (5-16 November) by the United Nations under the auspices of the UN Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), in the wake of the devastating famine in Bangladesh in the preceding two years. 

Perhaps the most famous statement made at the conference was by then-U.S. Secretary of State Henry Kissinger who made the declaration that within 10 years no child would go to bed hungry. 

In the Universal Declaration on the Eradication of Hunger and Malnutrition, governments attending the World Food Conference proclaimed that "every man, woman and child has the inalienable right to be free from hunger and malnutrition in order to develop their physical and mental faculties."  

Among other outcomes, the conference put in place a World Food Council (subsequently disbanded) and led to follow-up World Food Conferences.

The FAO commemorated this conference with the issue of a CERES Medal featuring Germaine Tillion.

The piece was written in 1947 in response to a request by the French minister of education for a composition celebrating the 100th anniversary of the Revolution of 1848. Milhaud wrote this symphony on board a steamship to France from the U.S., where he had lived since 1940. This symphony is not to be confused with Milhaud's Chamber Symphony No. 4, op. 74 (1921).

 L'insurrection. Animé (approx. 5')
 Aux Morts de la République. Lent (approx. 13')
 Le Joies de la Liberté retrouvée. Modérément animé (approx. 4')
 Commémoration 1948. Animé (approx. 7'15")

This symphony is published by Editions Salabert.

Gen. E. O. C. Ord was a United States Army Coast Artillery Corps mine planter built in 1909 by Pusey & Jones of Wilmington, Delaware to an Army Quartermaster Corps design. The mine planter was among the first vessels specifically designed to plant controlled mines in association with coastal fortifications. The first group had been built in 1904 with a second group built in 1909. Four of the 1909 planters, the first to be specifically designed for mine planting, were , steam-powered, twin-screw vessels. At the time the vessels were civilian crewed. In 1918 the Army Mine Planter Service of uniformed Army personnel was formed to operate the vessels.

The vessel was constructed by Pusey & Jones as hull number 335, contract 1158 with the hull in very early stage of construction on 8 October 1908, with launching on 13 February 1909.

The steel hull was divided into five compartments by watertight bulkheads with the double bottom running the entire length and also divided into compartments. Fresh water storage was in fore and aft bottom compartments with the ones between used for ballast adjusting draft and trim. A steam and pump brake windlass was located forward for mine handling.

Nitocris of Babylon (c. 550 BC) is an otherwise unknown queen regnant of Babylon described by Herodotus in his Histories. According to Histories of Herodotus, among sovereigns of Babylon two were women, Semiramis and Nitocris. Nitocris is credited by Herodotus with various building projects in Babylon. She is also said to have tricked Darius I by placing her tomb above a gate so that no Persian could pass below and enter through. According to the account, Darius was lured in by a mysterious inscription that served as a trap for greedy kings. According to Herodotus she was the wife of Nabonidus (Gr. Labynetus) against whose son an expedition was launched by Cyrus the Great. Dougherty and Beaulieu identify the son as Belshazzar.

If this is the case, she is most likely the queen in the story of Belshazzar's feast, and she is identified as such in Handel's oratorio Belshazzar.

Identity of Nitocris
In the past, various hypotheses have been proposed to link her with one or several known persons:
 Naqi'a, wife of Sanherib, known for building activities
 Adad-happe, the historical mother of Nabonidus, last king of Babylon
 an otherwise unknown wife of Nebuchadnezzar II or a daughter of his. The latter view is the most commonly accepted.

It is possible as well that Nabonidus married one of Nebuchadnezzar II's daughters, a marriage which could potentially have been secured through his mother's influence. Not only would such a connection explain Nabonidus's rise to the throne (being connected to the royal family) but it would also explain later historical traditions in which Nabonidus's son, Belshazzar, is described as Nebuchadnezzar II's descendant; as in the Book of Daniel in the Hebrew Bible, where Belshazzar is referred to as Nebuchadnezzar II's (grand)son. William H. Shea proposed in 1982, that Nitocris may tentatively be identified as the name of Nabonidus's wife and Belshazzar's mother.

It is conjectured that Nabonidus married Queen regnant Nitocris, a daughter of Nebuchadnezzar, and that Nitocris was credited with many constructions as co-sovereign with her husband.

In Scotland national scenic areas (NSAs) are defined as areas having outstanding scenic interest or unsurpassed attractiveness. They are administered by NatureScot. There are 40 designated NSAs in Scotland, covering 13% of the country's land area. The primary purpose of the NSA designations is to conserve and enhance the natural beauty of the landscape, in a similar way to the Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) designation used elsewhere in the UK. AONBs were created under the  National Parks and Access to the Countryside Act 1949, which applies to England, Wales and Northern Ireland. This act allows areas of countryside with significant landscape value in each of the three nations to be designated by their respective governments.
