Bertrando de Mignanelli or Beltramo Mignanelli di Siena (1370 – 1455 or 1460) was an adventurous and multilingual Italian merchant who lived in Damascus at the beginning of the 15th century and wrote the only Latin language primary source about Tamerlane's conquest of Damascus. Bertrando's father Leonard de Mignanelli was a member of the nobility of Siena. At a very young age Mignanelli left Siena and traveled extensively around the Middle East before settling in Damascus and starting his successful trading business.

Religion 

In some sources he is mentioned as a Catholic priest. Although he was a committed Christian his work does not contain much religious bias.

Works 

He personally knew Sultan Barquq and spoke Arabic. After he returned to Italy in 1416 he wrote a biography of Barquq and valuable testimony of Timur's capture of the Mamluk region of Syria in 1400—1401. He wrote his works based on what he had heard about the conquest because he fled to Jerusalem during the siege of Damascus and spent the winter of 1400/1401 there. After he heard that Damascus had been destroyed, he joined the retreating Mamluk Egyptian army commanded by Faraj ibn Barquq and went to Cairo and Alexandria with a servant.

In his works he also mentions the Battle of Kosovo because he makes a parallel between the conduct of Stefan Lazarević during the Battle of Angora and his father Prince Lazar of Serbia during the Battle of Kosovo. Like many other early Western sources, Mignanelli believed that the Christian Serbian army was victorious. In his 1416 work Mignanelli asserted that the Ottoman sultan Murad I was killed by Prince Lazar himself.

Mignanelli died in 1460.

Rudolf Anschober (born 21 November 1960) is an Austrian politician of the Green Party who served as Minister of Social Affairs, Health, Care, and Consumer Protection in the second government of Chancellor Sebastian Kurz from January 2020 to April 2021.

Political career
A former journalist and schoolteacher, Anschober served as a member of the National Council from 1990 until 1997 and held various positions in state politics.

Throughout his tenure in government, Anschober worked on the government's response to the COVID-19 pandemic in Austria. He consistently called for stricter lockdown measures in the face of high infection numbers, clashing with Chancellor Kurz and his party. By April 2021, he was diagnosed as suffering from high blood pressure, high blood sugar and early-stage tinnitus, which led him to resign from his office, effective 19 April 2021. At the time of his resignation, he was one of the country's most popular politicians.

The Prelude and Fugue in B-flat major, BWV 866, is a keyboard composition by Johann Sebastian Bach. It is the 21st prelude and fugue in the first book of The Well-Tempered Clavier, a series of 48 preludes and fugues by the composer. It was composed no later than 1722.

Prelude 
The prelude is in common time (4/4 time) and is composed of 20 bars, which are split into 2 periods of 10 bars each. The first period has a toccata-style melody which uses demisemiquaver (32nd note) broken chords and scale passages. In the first two bars, it uses a four-note sequence which drops by a third every half-bar. This period ends with a perfect cadence in dominant key of F major.

The second period uses a fantasia style and alternates between chords and scale progressions. The coda in bar 20 uses an extended arpeggio in the tonic that confirms the key of B-flat major. One copy of the prelude by a Bach pupil has the word adagio to the big chords in bar 11, which suggests that the second period should have a more improvisatory rhythm. Below are the opening bars of the prelude:

Fugue 
The structure of the fugue is similar to that of sonata form: it has an exposition (bars 1–13), a development (bars 13–41) and a recapitulation (bars 41–48). In the exposition, the subject is stated in the tonic, B-flat major. The second voice enters in the dominant, F major, in bar 5, then the third voice enters in the tonic once again in bar 9.

In the development, the subject is restated, then the first episode (bars 19–22) modulates the fugue to G minor, then the subject is restated twice in G minor, then C minor. The second episode (bars 30–35) then modulates the fugue to G minor, then C minor. The subject is then restated in E-flat major.

In the recapitulation, the subject is restated once again, still in E-flat major, then a coda (bars 45–48) leads to a perfect authentic cadence in the tonic. Below are the first two statements of the fugue:

Nikita is a veterinarian high in demand, who made a marriage proposal to Ilona, a plastic surgeon. Everything is going well for them, they are happy, their friends support their choice, but everything changes one morning when Vera and Nikita wake up in the same bed. Deciding that this is a result of wild fun, they run away in different directions, hoping to forget everything as a bad dream.

But the next morning everything repeats, they wake up again in the same bed, in the same Dream House, although each of them knows for sure that they fell asleep at home. This continues for several more days. Some mysterious forces all the time bring them together, ruining their privacy, or perhaps indicating that they are made for each other.

Ciucsângeorgiu ( ) is a commune in Harghita County, Romania. It lies in the Székely Land, an ethno-cultural region in eastern Transylvania.

Component villages
The commune is composed of nine villages:

History 
The village formed part of the Székely seat of Csíkszék, then from 1876 until 1918 to Csík County in the Kingdom of Hungary. After the Treaty of Trianon of 1920, it became part of Romania. In 1940, the Second Vienna Award granted the Northern Transylvania to Hungary and the villages were held by Hungary until 1944. After Soviet occupation, the Romanian administration returned and the commune became officially part of Romania in 1947. Between 1952 and 1960, the commune fell within the Magyar Autonomous Region, between 1960 and 1968 the Mureș-Magyar Autonomous Region. In 1968, the province was abolished, and since then, the commune has been part of Harghita County.

Demographics
At the 2011 census, the commune had a population of 4,839; out of them, 96% were Hungarian, 1.3% were Roma and 0.4% were Romanian. 94% of the commune population are Roman Catholic, 1.6% are Pentecostal, 0.5% are Reformed and 0.4% are Orthodox.

Leybuchtpolder is part of the borough of Norden in East Frisia on Germany's North Sea coast and was an independent municipality until 1972. Leybuchtpolder is geologically the most recent of Norden's parishes and has 461 inhabitants. Between 1947 and 1950 the polder was finally reclaimed from the North Sea, when the almost 5 km long Störtebeker Dyke was completed. A monument stands on the spot where the dyke was closed. Administratively Leybuchtpolder is the second most recent parish after Tidofeld, which did not become a separate parish until 1996.

Monique Ruck-Petit (née Petit; born 20 October 1942) is a Swiss and French chess player, two-times Swiss Women's Chess Championship winner (1964, 1979), French Women's Chess Championship winner (1979), Women's Chess Olympiad individual bronze medal winner (1984).

Biography
Ruck-Petit discovered chess at the age of 12. Her talent pushed her father to register her for several junior chess tournaments in Switzerland and allowed her, while a student at the Belvédère gymnasium in Lausanne, to be invited to the Jelmoli Cup in Zurich. In 1964, she won Swiss Women's Chess Championship without specific training, because at the same time she was preparing for her teacher's certificate. Three years later, she left Switzerland for France following her marriage to a Frenchman.

In 1979, the Swiss Women's Chess Championship was an international chess tournament played within the framework of the Biel Chess Festival and Monique Ruck-Petit finished sixth and became first Swiss women in the tournament. She won a second Swiss championship title, but her victory caused controversy because of her dual nationality obtained after her marriage. The next month, she also won French Women's Chess Championship.

Ruck-Petit played for France in the Women's Chess Olympiads:
 In 1976, at third board in the 7th Chess Olympiad (women) in Haifa (+1, =4, -2),
 In 1978, at third board in the 8th Chess Olympiad (women) in Buenos Aires (+3, =5, -2),
 In 1980, at second board in the 9th Chess Olympiad (women) in Valletta (+3, =2, -5),
 In 1982, at second board in the 10th Chess Olympiad (women) in Lucerne (+3, =1, -5),
 In 1984, at first reserve board in the 26th Chess Olympiad (women) in Thessaloniki (+5, =1, -1) and won individual bronze medal.

Dinas is a station on the narrow gauge Welsh Highland Railway, which was built in 1877 as the North Wales Narrow Gauge Railways Moel Tryfan Undertaking to carry dressed slate for trans-shipment to the LNWR. Passenger services ceased on 26 September 1936 until which time Dinas had been a joint station, known as Dinas Junction with the LNWR and later the LMS. In 1951, British Railways closed their part of the station but the line through the station remained open until the line from Caernarvon to Afon Wen was closed in 1964. The trackbed was subsequently developed as the Lôn Eifion tourist cycle route.

When the station was reopened on 11 October 1997, it was as the southern temporary terminus of the extended and soon to be restored Welsh Highland Railway from . Following reconstruction of the trackbed, the line was reopened on its original trackbed, in stages; on 7 August 2000 to Waunfawr; in 2003 to Rhyd Ddu; through the Aberglaslyn Pass to Beddgelert and Hafod-y-lyn in 2009; 26 May 2010 for  and finally on 4 January 2011 to Porthmadog. The official opening for the completed line was 20 April 2011. The train services are operated by the Festiniog Railway Company by its Welsh Highland Railway subsidiary.

At Dinas, the new narrow gauge platforms are built on the site of the former standard gauge platforms. Two buildings survive from the North Wales Narrow Gauge Railways era, namely the former goods shed and the original station building which has been carefully restored. Dinas station yards house the Welsh Highland Railway offices, carriage sheds and locomotive depot as well as extensive civil engineering works and sidings.

Philip Willem van Heusde (17 June 1778 in Rotterdam – 2 July 1839 in Geneva) was a Dutch philosopher and educator. He is known for his influence on the founders of the so-called Groningen school of theology.

He studied literature and law in Amsterdam and Leiden. In 1803 he received his doctorate in literature with a dissertation on Plato. During the same year, he obtained his law degree. From 1803 to 1815, he was a professor of history, antiquities, eloquence and Greek studies at Utrecht University, where from 1815 to 1839, he was a professor of theoretical philosophy and literature. At Utrecht, he also served as university librarian (1816-1839). He died on July 2, 1839, in Geneva, while traveling to Rome.

Van Heusde was a prominent figure in the Protestant Réveil movement during the early part of the 19th century. His humanistic ideas found widespread support from educators, theologians and jurists. During his career, he strove to improve education in high schools.
