The Blind Astronomer's Daughter (New York, Bloomsbury, 2016) is a historical novel by John Pipkin

The novel tells the story of the life of Caroline Ainsworth from roughly 1750 to 1840. Born to a poor peasant family, who named her Siobhan and then abandoned her, she was taken in by the family of Owen O'Siodha, a blacksmith on an estate in Ireland named New Park. Owen and his wife, Moira, already have sons and have also adopted another foundling, Finn, when Siobhan is brought to them as an infant. Finn causes an accident in the blacksmith's workshop that leaves the baby Siobhan with a crippled arm and hand. Meanwhile, over in England Arthur Ainsworth inherits his family's estates, which includes New Park. Arthur is keenly interested in astronomy, and gradually becomes obsessed with competing with William Herschel for discoveries in the night sky. In particular, Arthur thinks there is a planet closer to the Sun than Mercury, and he eventually goes blind looking for it against the Sun's disk. Before Arthur moves from England to New Park, he meets Theodosia, a delightful young woman, in a bookstore and she becomes his wife. Settling in at New Park, she gives birth to twin girls who die right away. Hoping to help both families, Owen and Moira offer baby Siobhan to Arthur and Theodosia for adoption. The arrangement is concluded, but Theodosia also dies soon after, leaving Arthur as the single father of an adopted daughter. He renames her Caroline. Caroline and Arthur, as well as Owen's family, struggle for years to keep the estate running smoothly and build an observatory on top of the manor house. Caroline and Finn fall in love as adults, but the terrible political unrest in Ireland in the late 18th century prevents them from getting together and achieving happiness. In the end, they are separated and Caroline never learns what happens to Finn.

Abdulghani "Gerry" A. Salapuddin is a Filipino politician and former three-term congressman (1998–2007).  He also served as governor of Basilan (1988–98) and was at least partly responsible for much of the progress made in Basilan in the 1990s.

Background
Salapuddin was born in 1952 in Tuburan, Basilan.  He graduated with a bachelor's degree in political science from the Basilan State College, and returned for graduate studies.  He became a guerrilla with the Moro National Liberation Front and fought for 14 years.  In 1983, he resigned his position as a provincial commander in the MNLF to run for political office.

Political activity
In 1988 Salapuddin ran for and won the governor seat in Basilan by 1,552 votes over Louise Alano, a former acting governor appointed by former President Aquino.  Under Salapuddin, Basilan experienced a period of relative prosperity including new trade missions, infrastructure improvement, development aid, business assistance and help for the poor.   Salapuddin frequently acted as negotiator when civilians were taken hostage by rebel groups, using his contacts and political wiles. He also served as acting chairman of the MNLF in Basilan and as president of the Young Muslim Professional Association.

In 1993, President Fidel Ramos suspended Salapuddin for 60 days on charges of "serious misconduct, oppression, gross negligence, abuse of authority, dereliction of duty and maladministration," one of many powerful politicians targeted in what was considered a crackdown on corruption and nepotism.

In 1998, Salapuddin sought the post of congressman for Basilan's lone district and won, proceeding to serve in three successive terms and two terms as deputy speaker for Mindanao in the House of Representatives.  In 2007, he ran again for mayor but lost to the wife of Wahab Akbar, Jum Jainudin.  Following Akbar's death by assassination in Quezon City the same year, he requested increased security after his former driver was accused as one of the suspects.  He was initially cleared of any involvement, but was later the target of an arrest warrant.

Salapuddin has somewhat faded from prominence since the 2007 elections, when he failed to be elected governor and his power bloc likewise fared poorly.

Equus niobrarensis (or commonly, Niobrara horse) is an extinct species of Equus, the genus that includes the horse. E. niobrarensis may be synonymous with Equus scotti. It was "stout-legged" and belonged to the "big horses" category as defined by M. C. Winans. The skull of the horse was noted as being broader than Equus caballus.

Distribution
E. niobrarensis was native to North America and commonly found in western North America and dates to the late Pleistocene. Fossils of E. niobrarensis were discovered at Dry Cave in Wisconsin. Another mention of an E. niobrarensis discovery was in Skeleton Cave, Oregon.

The 2020 Inter-Provincial Trophy was the eighth edition of the Inter-Provincial Trophy, a Twenty20 cricket competition played in Ireland during August and September 2020. It was the fourth edition of the competition to be played with full Twenty20 status. Northern Knights were the defending champions.

On the opening day of the tournament, Northern Knights beat North West Warriors by two runs in a match affected by the rain, and Leinster Lightning defeated Munster Reds by nine wickets with twelve overs to spare. Leinster Lightning won the tournament, to claim their sixth title, after beating Northern Knights by five wickets in the penultimate round of matches.

The final two fixtures of the tournament, scheduled to be played on 8 September 2020, were both called off a day before they were meant to be played. The match between Munster Reds and Northern Knights was cancelled because of a possible COVID-19 "chain of transmission" linked back to a cancelled match in the 2020 Bob Willis Trophy in England a few days prior. The other match, between North West Warriors and Leinster Lightning, was called off due to a wet outfield, meaning only half of the scheduled twelve matches finished with a result.

Background
Originally the tournament was scheduled to be held from 12 June to 3 August 2020, with competition split into two halves, each branded as a T20 Festival. The first half was scheduled to be played in June, and the second half was scheduled to be played in August.

On 26 March 2020, Cricket Ireland confirmed that domestic competitions would be pushed back to 28 May 2020 at the earliest, due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Government restrictions prevented any cricket, including training, from starting before June 2020. The Irish government announced a provisional date of 20 July 2020 for a possible restart of sporting fixtures in the country. Plans of a possible start of domestic cricket in Ireland, with matches taking place during August and September, were looked at in July 2020. On 22 July 2020, Cricket Ireland confirmed the revised fixtures for the tournament. On 15 August 2020, all the teams confirmed their squads for the tournament.

Salvador Casañas y Pagés (5 September 1834 – 27 October 1908) was a Spanish cardinal of the Roman Catholic Church. He served as Bishop of Barcelona from 1901 until his death, and was elevated to the cardinalate in 1895.

Biography
Salvador Casañas y Pagés was born in Barcelona, and studied at the seminary in Barcelona and the University of Valencia, from where he obtained his licentiate in theology in 1857. He was ordained to the priesthood on 18 December 1858, and then did pastoral work in Barcelona for several years. He later became a professor and the rector of its seminary, and was made canon administrator of its cathedral chapter.

Casañas was appointed Apostolic Administrator sede plena of Urgell on 18 January 1879 by Pope Leo XIII, and on the following 7 February Titular bishop of Ceramus. He received his episcopal consecration on 23 March that same year from Bishop José de Urquinaona y Vidot, with Bishops Tomás Sivilla y Gener and Tomás Costa y Fornaguera serving as co-consecrators, in the Cathedral of Barcelona. Casañas was later named Bishop of Urgell on the following 22 September; in this position he also served as Co-Prince of Andorra. The French Co-Princes of Andorra during his leadership were Jules Grévy, Sadi Carnot, Jean Casimir-Perier, and Félix Faure. He was a senator for the ecclesiastical province of Tarragona as well.

Pope Leo created him Cardinal Priest of Santi Quirico e Giulitta in the consistory of 29 November 1895. Casañas was made Bishop of Barcelona on 18 April 1901, and later participated in the papal conclave of 1903, which selected Pope Pius X. On Christmas Day 1905, an anarchist made an unsuccessful attempt to assassinate the Cardinal in the cloister of the Barcelona cathedral.

Casañas died in Barcelona, at the age of 74. He is buried in the cathedral of the same.

Sir Arthur Frederick Clarence Webber (12 March 1873 – 22 December 1952) was a British lawyer and judge who served in British Guiana, Nigeria and Sierra Leone, where he was Chief Justice.

Life

Arthur Frederick Clarence Webber was born in Georgetown in British Guiana (now Guyana),  on 12 March 1873, son of Arthur Weber.
He attended Queen's College in British Guiana and then studied at Merton College, Oxford in England.
In 1896 he became a barrister of the Inner Temple.
He practiced at the bar in British Guiana, then in 1900 became a magistrate.
In 1901 he Married Kathleen Mary Kennard.
They had three sons and two daughters.

After nine years Webber was appointed a Judge of the Supreme Court of Nigeria.
He was involved in a 1916 dispute between the Ibeno and Eket peoples over ownership of the sea shore and adjacent swamp, in which he ruled that both should be allowed to use the land.
In 1919 Webber was listed as one of three puisne judges in Nigeria under Chief Justice R. M. Combe.
The position paid £1,000 annually, plus £200 duty pay.
In the 1920s he was based in Calabar, where he had to deal with problems related to migrant Hausas from the north.

Millburn Park is a football ground in Alexandria, Scotland. It has been the home ground of Vale of Leven since 1888, hosting Scottish Football League matches between 1890 and 1926.

History
Millburn Park was opened in August 1888 when Vale of Leven moved from North Street Park. A grandstand was brought from North Street Park and erected on the eastern side of the pitch, which was surrounded by a cinder track. A covered stand was put up on the western side of the pitch, and a pavilion opened in the south-eastern corner.

Vale of Leven were founder members of the Scottish Football League in 1890, and the first league match was played at Millburn Park on 30 August 1890, with Vale of Leven beating Abercorn 2–1. Although the club left the league in 1892, they were elected into Division Two in 1905. The ground's probable record attendance of 8,000 was set for a Scottish Cup match against Alloa Athletic on 2 February 1922.

Towards the end of the 1925–26 season, Division Three was disbanded; the final Scottish Football League match was played at Millburn Park on 3 April 1926, with Vale of Leven drawing 2–2 with Mid-Annandale. The club was also disbanded a few years later but reformed as a Junior club in 1939, with the reformed club using Millburn Park.
