Niles Canyon ghost: The Niles Canyon ghost story is the Northern California variation on the vanishing hitchhiker archetype.  There are many different variations of this story depending on whom you ask.  All stories include a girl being involved in some sort of motorized vehicle accident on February 26 (year often changed).  One variation of the story includes a girl being involved in a car crash on Niles Canyon road (off the 680 freeway in Sunol, California) on the way to her prom.  The girl died on impact and to this day is said to haunt Niles Canyon road every February 26.  The tale of the haunting goes that people traveling along Niles Canyon road (now Highway 84) on the night of February 26 will see a normal-looking high school-aged girl walking along the road in a prom dress (many people have said it is white).  People traveling along the road (mostly those traveling alone) have said to have stopped and offered the girl a ride.  She accepts the ride, giving the driver an address across the bridge (either Dumbarton or Bay Bridge depending on the storyteller).  Once the driver gets to the beginning of the bridge, the girl will disappear.  Sometimes people have gone to the address to find that a girl many years ago matching that description once lived there.  Today, many people will travel along this treacherous pitch black road in the hopes of catching a glimpse of the Niles Canyon ghost.

Tommy English (loyalist): Thomas English (1960 – 31 October 2000), usually known as Tommy English, was an Ulster loyalist paramilitary and politician.  He served as a commander in the Ulster Defence Association (UDA) and was killed by members of the Ulster Volunteer Force (UVF) as part of a violent loyalist feud between the two organisations.  English had also been noted as a leading figure in the Ulster Democratic Party (UDP) during the early years of the Northern Ireland peace process.

Mayor of Mandaue: The Mayor of Mandaue City (Cebuano: "Alkalde sa Mandaue" , Filipino: "Alkalde ng Mandaue" ) is the head of the Local government of the city.  Since the Pre-Hispanic time were chiefs, only two are known Aponoan and Lambuzzan.  Not many people are mentioned in the Spanish Expedition chronicles; the former was succeeded by the latter.  During the year 1600 when the Spanish subjugated Mandaue Andug was the chief of the settlement.  Before there were priests, Capitanes, Tenientes and the Cabeza de Barangay were the local leaders in Spanish regime.  Later, in the American commonwealth era of the Philippines the leaders were the President and after the war the title changed to Mayor.  Mandaue was only incorporated as a city on June 21, 1969 in the term of Mayor Demetrio Cortes Sr. which led to the signing of the City Charter on Aug 30 1969 under Republic Act No 5519.

2002 El Ayyat railway accident: The El Ayyat train disaster happened at 02:00 on the morning of 20 February 2002 in an eleven-carriage passenger train travelling from Cairo to Luxor.  A cooking gas cylinder exploded in the fifth carriage, creating a fire which engulfed seven third-class carriages, reducing them almost to cinders.  The initial number of dead given by officials at the time was 383, all Egyptians.  However, considering that seven carriages were burnt to the ground, and each carriage was packed with at least double the maximum carrying capacity of 150, this number is considered by many people to be a great underestimate.  The dubious nature of the given death toll lies with the absence of a full passenger list; accounting for those missing was almost impossible at the time.  In addition, the fire was so intense and the carriages so badly burned that many corpses had been reduced to ash.  As there was no means of communication between the driver and the rear carriages, the driver did not know of the fire until about two hours after it had begun, resulting in many people, attempting to flee from the overcrowded carriages, jumping to their death.  Some important Egyptians have commentated that the official number of 383 dead is grossly inaccurate and was an attempt to lessen the damage done to the reputation of the government.  Many people consider a number of about 1000 deaths to be more accurate.

Sexuality after spinal cord injury: Although spinal cord injury (SCI) often causes sexual dysfunction, many people with SCI are able to have satisfying sex lives.  Physical limitations acquired from SCI affect sexual function and sexuality in broader areas, which in turn has important effects on quality of life.  Damage to the spinal cord impairs its ability to transmit messages between the brain and parts of the body below the level of the lesion.  This results in lost or reduced sensation and muscle motion, and affects orgasm, erection, ejaculation, and vaginal lubrication.  More indirect causes of sexual dysfunction include pain, weakness, and side effects of medications.  Psycho-social causes include depression and altered self-image.  Many people with SCI have satisfying sex lives, and many experience sexual arousal and orgasm.  People with SCI employ a variety of adaptations to help carry on their sex lives healthily, by focusing on different areas of the body and types of sexual acts.  Neural plasticity may account for increases in sensitivity in parts of the body that have not lost sensation, so people often find newly sensitive erotic areas of the skin in erogenous zones or near borders between areas of preserved and lost sensation.
