Jean-Joseph Vinache (1696 – 1 December 1754) was a French sculptor who served as the court sculptor to Augustus II, King of Poland and Elector of Saxony. Vinache's equestrian monument of Augustus, known as the "Gilded Horseman" (Goldener Reiter), is one of the most familiar sights of Dresden, Germany.

Vinache was born in Paris, the son of a bronzefounder. His skill brought him to the attention of an agent of the Elector, "Augustus the Strong", who called him to Dresden to complete an unfinished equestrian sculpture that had been left by the late sculptor François Coudray (1678–1727). A model in gilded plaster and a bronze reduction (Dresden, Grünes Gewölbe) preserve the design of this scheme: Augustus, now King of Poland is shown in Roman armour, gripping the baton of power, on a rearing horse, stabilized by a massive tail. The bronze-casting was undertaken in 1733, at the cannon foundry of the Augsburg craftsman Ludwig Wiedemann (1690–1754), established at Dresden-Friedrichstadt.
Construction of the high pedestal designed by architect Zacharias Longuelune was initiated with a foundation stone, 12 August 1735, but construction was delayed. The completed sculpture was unveiled 26 November 1736.

Retired for safety during World War II, the sculpture survived the Dresden Firestorm unscathed and was restored and re-erected on a new plinth in 1956.

Vinache executed numerous other works for Augustus and also made copies after the Antique. A bronze Apollo Leaning on his Lyre (Dresden Skulpturensammlung) was repeated in marble; a reduced terracotta version is at the Musée du Louvre.

In 1736 he returned to Paris, where he was accepted that year at the Académie royale de Peinture et de Sculpture, presenting as his morceau de reception Hercules Enchained by Love; the final marble, delivered 27 May 1741, is at the Musée du Louvre. A marble replica, attributed to Vinache, was sold from the Lagerfeld collection at Christie's Monaco: Friday, April 28, 2000, lot 16.

As an Académicien, Vinache received various public commissions, for an Aurora for Versailles (1746–49) and in Paris. For the chapel of St. Francis Xavier in the Church of St-Paul-St-Louis in the Marais district of Paris, he was commissioned to provide a sculpture illustrating religious zeal, a pendant to the sculpture of Nicolas-Sébastien Adam, called "Adam le jeune", Religion Instructing an Indian; the result was Le Zèle, an angel whipping a fallen heathen among the debris of idolatry, holding open a large folio representing the Gospel. The sculpture was completed in 1745.

A marble Enfants jouant avec des fleurs by Vinache and Nicolas-François Gillet is also conserved at the Louvre.

He died in 1754.

The Battle of Dire Dawa  were a series of battles that took place since 17 July to 17 August 1977 between Ethiopian Armed Forces and Somali Armed Forces near the town of Dire Dawa, Ethiopia and adjacent to the airfield of the same name during the Ogaden War. For the first time since the beginning of the war, Soviet and Cuban military assistance was provided to the Ethiopians. Somali forces were defeated for the first time during the war.

Battle
The first attempt to storm Dire Dawa by the Somalis was made on July 17 at 04:30 with attacking forces totalling three mechanized battalions. The attack was repulsed at the cost of 79 Ethiopian soldiers dead; Ethiopians estimated the loss of Somalis twice as high. As a result of the attack, Somalis breached the Dire Dawa airfield destroying an F-5E aircraft of the Ethiopian 9th Air Force with an RPG. 

The second phase of the assault was launched on 17 August 1977, with Somalian forces totalling a Infantry battalion and 32 tanks. On the outskirts of the city, three Somali tanks were destroyed by mines. Somali tanks managed to pass the Ethiopian resistance and break through to the airfield near the city; during the assault the entire airfield was damaged, including the control tower. Nine aircraft were destroyed and at least one more damaged; one Ethiopian M-41 tank and a fuel storage facility were destroyed as well. Ethiopia began an emergency transfer of reinforcements from Harar consisting in more militias, tanks and gun-mounted BRDMs, but only massive Ethiopian air raids were able to stop the Somali tanks, destroying 16 T-55s.

Losses
During the assault on the airfield, ten Ethiopian aircraft were destroyed: one Northrop F-5E, eight Saab B 17s piston dive bombers, and one T-28 Trojan. A civilian Boeing 707 was also damaged. An Ethiopian M41 light tank was also destroyed.

According to the Ethiopians, the Somalis lost during the battle 21 of the 32 T-55 tanks involved. As proof, the Ethiopians showed Western media journalists 11 wrecked Somali tanks, some of which were abandoned because they were stuck in the mud. Other vehicles lost by attacking Somali forces were thirty military trucks, five armoured personnel carriers, three BM-13 launchers and a howitzer.

Prunus × schmittii, Schmitt's cherry, is a nothospecies of flowering cherry that is the result of a cross between Prunus canescens (gray-leaf cherry) and Prunus avium (sweet cherry). It is useful as a street tree in narrow spaces due to its very slender, conical growth form.

Debuting in 1923, P. × schmittii is a fast-growing tree, typically reaching 7 to 12m, 15m in favorable spots. Its small, pale pink star- or propeller-shaped flowers arrive in April and attract bees and other pollinators due to their heavy production of pollen. Its small red drupes are relished by birds. The shiny decorative bark is a mahogany brown with prominent horizontal lenticels. The fall foliage is orange-yellow. Multi- and single- stem varieties are available from commercial nurseries.

Short of a length (sometimes referred to as "back of a length" or "short of a good length") is a term used in the sport of cricket. It describes a delivery from the bowler that pitches short of the optimum length.

Length in cricket defines where the ball pitches on the wicket. A good length ball is one that pitches at a distance that makes it difficult for the batsman to ascertain whether to play the ball on the front foot or back foot. A bouncer is a ball that passes the batsman above chest height. A short of a length delivery is one that pitches in the area between the bouncer and good length balls.

This delivery can be dangerous for a batsman as it can bounce higher into the midriff. Also, the delivery can be extremely useful to a seam bowler. Good exponents include Stephen Harmison and Glenn McGrath.

Louis-Basile de Bernage (baptized 4 February 1691, Paris; died 12 May 1767, Paris) was a French aristocrat, seigneur of Saint-Maurice, Vaux, and Chassy, and a politician under the ancien régime. From 1743 to 1757, he was the Prévot des Marchands (Provost of Merchants, a post equivalent to mayor) of Paris.

Parents
His father was Louis de Bernage (1663–1737), a councilor of the Grand Conseil, and his mother was Anne-Marie Rouillé (c. 1664 – 1755), daughter of Louis Rouillé, secretary of the king and Controller General of the Post.

Political career
In 1712, Bernage became an avocat général (magistrate) of the tribunal of the Requêtes de l'Hôtel, a court located in the Palais de Justice. In 1714, he was elevated to maitre des requêtes (Master of Requests).

Intendant of Montauban in 1720 and 1723, he succeeded his father as intendant of Languedoc from 1725 to 1743.

A Conseiller d'État on a semester basis in 1734 and an ordinary in 1743, he was Prévôt des Marchands of Paris from 26 July 1743 to August 1757. In this capacity, he acted as the director of the Opéra from August 1749 to 28 November 1753, when the position was assigned to Eugène de Thuret, who had previously been the director in the 1730s. Bernage, however, as Prévôt des Marchands, continued to supervise the management of the Opéra for the eight years it was administered by the City of Paris.

He was a recipient of the Grand Croix of the Ordre Royal et Militaire de Saint-Louis.

Descendants
He married Marie Anne Moreau on 11 February 1714. Their children included:
 Anne Marie Renée de Bernage de Vaux de Bernage (1714–1786)
 Jean Louis de Bernage de Saint-Maurice (1716–1780), Conseiller d’État, Grand Croix de l'Ordre Royal et Militaire de Saint-Louis
 Élisabeth Jeanne Thérèse de Bernage de Saint-Maurice

Placido Michele Aurifici, better known as Bernardino da Ucria (9 April 1739, in Ucria, Sicily – 29 January 1796, in Palermo) was a Sicilian friar and botanist.

In 1766 he entered the Franciscan monastery of St Antony in Palermo, taking the name Bernardino, by which he is now known. He developed a keen interest in botany and in 1786 was appointed demonstrator in botany at the University of Palermo, in which capacity he was involved in the establishment and named custodian of the new Palermo Botanical Garden on the site that it still occupies. A keen student of Carl Linnaeus, he was responsible for the layout of the original section of garden on the basis of the Linnean system of classification. A sculpted bust of Bernardino by Mario Rutelli is situated in the garden.

He traveled extensively through Sicily collecting plant specimens for his botanical garden. In 1789, Bernardino published his major work, Hortius regius panormitanus, a catalogue of the plants in the Botanical Garden, with notes on their wild origins in Sicily and, where appropriate, their medicinal uses. Three years later he published Plantae ad Linnaeanum opus addendae, a short pamphlet in which he described 32 new species of plants.
