Kalamandalam Neelakantan Nambisan (1920–1985) was a trend-setter Kathakali musician who played a crucial role in remoulding the aesthetics of singing for the classical dance-drama of Kerala, south India. Nambisan imbibed a set of fresh musical ideas from his epoch-making guru Mundaya Venkitakrishna Bhagavatar(1881-1957), developed them to sound even better and handed them over to a set of disciples, most of whom gained name and fame sooner or later.

Nambisan's weighty yet part-nasal music, which marked a quantum transition of Kathakali songs from its original Sopanam base to more of the Carnatic style, had such cascading effect on Kathakali music that it has since sounded radically different by becoming more ornate, sophisticated and bhava-oriented than ever. His prominent disciples at the Kerala Kalamandalam include virtually the who is who of the Kathakali music of the Kalluvazhi style: Kalamandalam Gangadharan, Ramankutty Varrier, Madambi Subramanian Namboodiri, Tirur Nambissan Kalamandalam Sankaran Embranthiri, Kalamandalam Hyderali, Kalamandalam Haridas, Kalamandalam Subramanian, Kalamandalam P.G. Radhakrishnan, Kalanilayam Unnikrishnan and Kalamandalam Bhavadasan, Kalamandalam Gopalakrishnan.

Nambisan was born in Kothachira village of Palakkad district on 2 November 1919. After completing primary schooling, he received training in singing Ashtapadis in the Sopanam style. He had also learnt Ottamthullal from his elder brother Parameswaran Nambisan and maddalam from Vellattanhur Raman Nambisan. Later, on joining Kerala Kalamandalam as a teenager, Nambisan was initiated into Kathakali singing by veterans Samikutty Bhagavatar and Kuttan Bhagavatar. He also learnt the basics of Carnatic music from Kakkat Karanavappadu. Soon his qualities like dense voice, adherence to the pitch, emotive rendition and sense of rhythm found grooming under the tutelage of Venkitakrishna Bhagavatar. He soon mastered anchoring the music part of story plays—be them the choreographically intricate type or ones meriting melodramatic rendition. Nambisan also parallelly received bits of training in Sanskrit, Hindi and English. He also took classes from nadaswaram player Govinda Swamy.

As a teacher, he joined Kerala Kalamandalam in 1946 and retired from his alma mater as its principal. He later served as a tutor in PSV Natyasangham, Kottakkal, as well.

In 1971, he received the Kerala Sangeetha Nataka Akademi Award.

Tsūjun Bridge (通潤橋 -kyō) is an aqueduct in Yamato, Kumamoto, Japan. It is an arch bridge completed in 1854 and is 84.0m long. The arch spans 27.3m. It is the largest stone aqueduct in Japan.

The Japanese Agency for Cultural Affairs has designated the bridge an National Treasure.

History and technology
This bridge exemplifies the high level of stone bridge technology in existence at the time of its construction. Yasunosuke Futa (1801–1873), who was the head of the then Yabe village, planned it and, after obtaining funding, succeeded in building the bridge in 1854 with the help of the group of 41 stone technicians and many farmers. Its purpose was to let water flow into a higher area (Shiroito Plateau) for farming. After placing wooden frames, stones were placed on the frames and three stone aqueducts were made. After that, the wooden frames were removed. Because the aqueducts were lower than the upper part of the waterway by , water a reversed siphon mechanism works when water flows through the aqueducts. The stone aqueducts were made watertight with mortar. The bridge was completed in 1854.

Because the aqueduct is lower than the upstream and downstream waterways, sand and mud may accumulate in the aqueduct. To clean the accumulated dirt, the bridge is able to occasionally release water (and dirt) into the river below. This is mostly done in the farmers' off-season.

A stock knife is a large, straight bladed long handled knife with a hook at the far end. The hook is engaged into an eye in the workbench and allows the workman to exert great force when required. The knife back and handle were made of wrought iron to give flexible strength, while the blade had a thin sheet of blister steel on the top side to give a razor sharp edge.  It was used solely in the production of clog soles. The Carter family at High Burton had a virtual monopoly, almost all surviving blades are stamped Henry Carter, though other family members also left their mark.
The stock knife is distinguished from other such knives, for instance pegging knives, in that the blade chamfer is on the underside in order to achieve concave cuts. It is also notable for having the smallest gap between blade and hook to facilitate carving the clog heel. Stock knives used by the block cutting gangs, who carved rough cut crude blocks to be finished in clogmaking shops, often had a few more inches of offset set into the handle arm.

Brøndby Municipality has in its history been a strong area for parties of the red bloc. In the 2019 Danish general election, it was the municipality where the bloc received the 3rd highest percentage of votes. Since 1966, the Social Democrats had held the mayor's position, and had won an absolute majority in all but one election from 1981 to 2017. 

In the 2017 election, the Social Democrats had won 11 seats, and the absolute majority made Kent Max Magelund mayor.

In this election, once again the Social Democrats would become the largest party and win an absolute majority. Therefore Kent Max Magelund was set to be mayor for his 2nd full term

Electoral system
For elections to Danish municipalities, a number varying from 9 to 31 are chosen to be elected to the municipal council. The seats are then allocated using the D'Hondt method and a closed list proportional representation.
Brøndby Municipality had 19 seats in 2021

Unlike in Danish General Elections, in elections to municipal councils, electoral alliances are allowed.
