Daniel J. Boorstin
Daniel Joseph Boorstin (October 1, 1914 – February 28, 2004) was an American historian at the University of Chicago who wrote on many topics in American and world history. He was appointed the twelfth Librarian of the United States Congress in 1975 and served until 1987. He was instrumental in the creation of the Center for the Book at the Library of Congress.

Repudiating his youthful membership in the Communist Party,  Boorstin became a political conservative and a prominent exponent of consensus history. He argued in The Genius of American Politics (1953) that ideology, propaganda, and political theory are foreign to America. His writings were often seen, along with those of historians such as Richard Hofstadter, Louis Hartz and Clinton Rossiter, as belonging to the "consensus school", which emphasized the unity of the American people and downplayed class and social conflict. Boorstin especially praised inventors and entrepreneurs as central to the American success story.

Center for the Book
The Library of Congress's Center for the Book was founded in 1977 by Daniel J. Boorstin, the Librarian of Congress, to promote literacy, libraries, and reading and an understanding of the history and heritage of American literature. The Center for the Book is mainly supported by tax-deductible donations.
RARS
RARS is an acronym for Robot Auto Racing Simulator. It is an open source 3D racing simulator. RARS is designed to enable pre-programmed AI drivers to race against one another. RARS was used as the base for TORCS. It was used as an example in the book Intelligent Information Processing and Web Mining by Mieczysław Kłopotek.

It was a monthly on-going challenge for practitioners of artificial intelligence and real-time adaptive optimal control. It consists of:

a simulation of the physics of cars racing on a track

a graphic display of the race

a separate control program (robot "driver") for each car

Each participant could submit a robot (a file written in C++) which controlled the car and competed to win the race.

The input was the road and cars in front of it.

The output was the driver wheel and driver accelerator position.

RARS was downloaded from its main repository on SourceForge.net between 2000 and May 2017 almost 100,000 times.

TORCS
TORCS (The Open Racing Car Simulator) is an open-source 3D car racing simulator available on Linux, FreeBSD, Mac OS X, AmigaOS 4, AROS, MorphOS and Microsoft Windows. TORCS was created by Eric Espié and Christophe Guionneau, but project development is now headed by Bernhard Wymann. It is written in C++ and is licensed under the GNU GPL. TORCS is designed to enable pre-programmed AI drivers to race against one another, while allowing the user to control a vehicle using either a keyboard, mouse, or wheel input.
Zaini Ahmad
Zaini bin Haji Ahmad (born 21 January 1935) is a Bruneian civil servant, writer, and nationalist activist who played a significant role in the country's political history. A founding member of the Partai Rakyat Brunei (PRB), Zaini was considered one of A. M. Azahari's closest allies. Following the failed 1962 Brunei revolt, he went into exile, where he dedicated his efforts to reviving the PRB and advocating for political reforms in Brunei. Despite facing restrictions as a political refugee in Malaysia, Zaini continued to influence Brunei’s political landscape by lobbying international organisations, seeking support from bodies such as the United Nations (UN) and the Commonwealth, and presenting his case at various conferences.

Having trained under the Japanese, Azahari elevated Brunei's political opposition to colonialism to unprecedented levels. After serving as an anti-colonialist soldier in Java, he returned in 1952 and became the catalyst for the Brunei revolt against British colonial interests. During the 20th century, he was arguably the most charismatic politician in Brunei.
