Aassmaa Akhannouch (born 1973) is a Moroccan artist and photographer. She is the winner in 2021 of the 26th .

Biography 
Born in 1973 in Meknes, Morocco, Aassmaa Akhannouch earned an engineering degree in France and an MBA in the United States, then worked in marketing for fifteen years. In 2013, to improve her knowledge of digital photography, she took a course at the Photo Academy Casablanca, Morocco, and decided to devote herself entirely to a career in photography in 2016.

She works in the cyanotype process, an early monochrome photographic printing technique, to which she applies a variety of idiosyncratic processes such as tea baths and watercolor highlights. She explains her approach to photography: "My photography is an exploration of memory. Through my images and careful attention to the printing process, I tell stories, fragments of memories open to the viewer's associations and emotions. Rather than an intention to document the past, I attempt to reveal the emotions that dwell in me. What I try to extract from the past is an impression, intimate, lyrical and timeless." Between 2016 and 2018, she collaborated in her research with the artist photographer FLORE in the photographic studio of L'Œil de l'Esprit in Paris.

In 2021, Akhannouch won the Prix HSBC pour la photographie for her series “The house that still lives within me…”. The HSBC prize winners are given funds to support the publication of a book of their photographs. Akhannouch produced La maison qui m'habite encore, which was published by Atelier Xavier Barral in 2021 in French and English.

Akhannouch lives and works in Casablanca and the Lot Valley in Occitania, France.

(bapt. 23 September 1828 – 10 May 1899) was a British children's writer and illustrator, perhaps best known for her adventure novel Left to Themselves: A Boy's Adventure in Australia (1878) – later published as The Young Lamberts. The novel is set in Australia, but she is not known to have ever visited the continent.

Life 
Marryat was born in Fulham, Surrey, England, the daughter of Frederick Marryat and his wife Catherine (née Shairp). Captain Marryat was a successful popular novelist and two of Augusta's sisters, Florence and Emilia, also became writers. Augusta wrote adventure fiction heavily infused with morality in her father's vein, and Florence was a prolific author of sensationalist novels who also acquired a reputation for hanging out with spiritual mediums.

She died in Surrey in 1899.

Alligator pepper (also known as mbongo spice or hepper pepper) is a West African spice made from the seeds and seed pods of Aframomum danielli, A. citratum or A. exscapum. It is a close relative of grains of paradise, obtained from the closely related species, Aframomum melegueta or "grains of paradise". Unlike grains of paradise, which are generally sold as only the seeds of the plant, alligator pepper is sold as the entire pod containing the seeds (in the same manner to another close relative, black cardamom).

The plants which provide alligator pepper are herbaceous perennial flowering plants of the ginger family (Zingiberaceae), native to swampy habitats along the West African coast. Once the pod is open and the seeds are revealed, the reason for this spice's common English name becomes apparent as the seeds have a papery skin enclosing them and the bumps of the seeds within this skin is reminiscent of an alligator's back.

As mbongo spice, the seeds of alligator pepper are often sold as the grains isolated from the pod and with the outer skin removed. Mbongo spice is most commonly either A. danielli or A. citratum, and has a more floral aroma than A. exscapum (which is the commonest source of the entire pod).

It is a common ingredient in West African cuisine, where it imparts both pungency and a spicy aroma to soups and stews.

Use in cuisine
Even in West Africa, alligator pepper is an expensive spice, so is used sparingly. Often, a single whole pod is pounded in a pestle and mortar before half of it is added (along with black pepper) as a flavouring to West African soups or boiled rice. The spice can also be substituted in any recipe using grains of paradise or black cardamom to provide a hotter and more pungent flavour.

When babies are born in Yoruba culture, they are given a small taste of alligator pepper (atare) shortly after birth as part of the routine baby-welcoming process, and it is also used as an ingredient at traditional meet-and-greets.

In Igboland, alligator pepper, ósè ọ́jị́ with kola nuts are used in naming ceremonies, as presentation to visiting guests, and for other social events with the kola nut rite. The Igbo present and eat the alligator pepper together with kola nuts. In virtually every Igbo ceremony, alligator peppers and kola nuts are presented to guests at the top of the agenda and prior to any other food or entertainment. Prayers and libations are made together with kola nuts and alligator pepper.

During the Covid-19 pandemic, it was used in medicine.

The Asia Minor Defense Organization (), sometimes referred to simply as the Asia Minor Defense (Μικρασιατική Άμυνα, Mikrasiatiki Amyna) was a Greek nationalist organisation founded in 1921 during the final stages of the Greco-Turkish War (1919–1922). The Organisation's goal was the foundation of an autonomous or independent Greek state in Ionia in case the Greek campaign in Asia Minor proved to be a failure, as well as to protect the Ottoman Greeks of the region from Turkish atrocities, and to find a reasonable settlement to the question of the Smyrna Zone's fate. The Organisation was headquartered in Smyrna and was led by prominent Greek personalities of Ionia, including Metropolitan Bishop Chrysostomos of Smyrna, and even had branches in foreign cities. Following the Greek Army's defeat in Asia Minor and the subsequent destruction of the Greek quarter and community of Smyrna, the Organisation ceased to exist.

The Commissioners of Woods, Forests and Land Revenues were established in the United Kingdom in 1810 by merging the former offices of Surveyor General of Woods, Forests, Parks, and Chases and Surveyor General of the Land Revenues of the Crown into a three-man commission.  The name of the commission was changed in 1832 to the Commissioners of Woods, Forests, Land Revenues, Works and Buildings.

The hereditary land revenues of the Crown in Scotland, formerly under the management of the Barons of the Exchequer, were transferred to the Commissioners of Woods, Forests, Land Revenues, Works and Buildings and their successors under the Crown Lands (Scotland) Acts of 1832, 1833 and 1835.

The Crown Lands Act 1851 replaced the Commissioners with two separate commissions, the Commissioners of Works and Public Buildings and the Commissioners of Woods, Forests and Land Revenues dividing between them the public and the commercial functions of the Crown lands.

Daughter of the Moon Goddess is a 2022 adult fantasy novel by Malaysian writer Sue Lynn Tan. Tan's debut novel was inspired by Chinese mythology and the legend of the moon goddess Chang'e. Published on 11 January 2022 by Harper Voyager, an imprint of HarperCollins, it is the first book in a planned duology. It follows Xingyin as she embark on a journey to free her mother from the ruthless Celestial Emperor.

Plot
Xingyin is an immortal and has lived in Isolation with her mother. Her existence has been kept secret for years from the other's in the Celestial Kingdom unaware of her mother's history.

Her mother Chang'e became the moon goddess when she drank her husband's elixir and she lost her husband and was granted immortality but the Celestials — 'gods' became angry and imprisoned her in the Palace where she hides her secret daughter, Xingyin. 
Soon when her existence is discovered by the Celestial Emperor, she flees from her only home to the Celestial Kingdom and swears to free her mother from imprisonment.

Xingyin discovers she has magic and her skills for archery which she inherited from her father and works hard to get enough status to bargain her mother's freedom. She befriends the Crown Prince Liwei, the Captain of the Celestial Army and she learns more about magic while disguising herself as an archer.
Xingyin works undercover to free her mother, while others plot against the Kingdom but the Emperors are also staging a malicious plan.

Reception
The book was ranked as one of the most anticipated books of 2022 by several magazines and literary websites including   Polygon  , PopSugar,  Book riot and Tor.com. It received several positive receptions from reviewers, and starred trade reviews from Publishers’ Weekly, Library Journal and BookPage. In a starred review, Publishers Weekly noted that "Tan paints a lush, sparkling world in her inventive reimagining of the age-old Chinese folktale. The result is a riveting page-turner that will leave fantasy lovers satisfied and eager for more". Library Journal calls the book “an exquisitely detailed fantasy with a strong, vulnerable protagonist. The intimate prose makes Tan’s wonderful debut an immersive experience…”. A review from Kirkus Review called the novel "A standard court fantasy, unique in its expansion on the story of the Mid-Autumn Festival". The BookPage starred review comments: “Filled with intricate world building, heartbreaking romance and mind-bending intrigue. Tan’s story is mythic in its scope yet personal in its execution…The result is an all-consuming work of literary fantasy that is breathtaking both for its beauty and its suspense.”
