Judo at the 2004 Summer Olympics – Men's 81 kg
Men's 81 kg competition in judo at the 2004 Summer Olympics was held on August 17 at the Ano Liossia Olympic Hall.

This event was the median of the men's judo weight classes, limiting competitors to a maximum of 81 kilograms of body mass. Like all other judo events, bouts lasted five minutes. If the bout was still tied at the end, it was extended for another five-minute, sudden-death period; if neither judoka scored during that period, the match is decided by the judges. The tournament bracket consisted of a single-elimination contest culminating in a gold medal match. There was also a repechage to determine the winners of the two bronze medals. Each judoka who had lost to a semifinalist competed in the repechage. The two judokas who lost in the semifinals faced the winner of the opposite half of the bracket's repechage in bronze medal bouts.

Future Russian politician Dmitry Nossov won a bronze medal.
Train of Knowledge
The Train of Knowledge was an Australian school camp on wheels, allowing students and teachers to visit multiple locations around Victoria without having to organise accommodation or transport.

The first run was organised by Macleod High School, which chartered a train in March 1958, taking 200 students from Melbourne to Warrnambool, Hamilton, Portland, Stawell, Bendigo, Echuca, Kyabram and back.

The Victorian Railways operated the train through to 1976. Its successors, VicRail and the Public Transport Corporation, operated the service until 1989, when the service was withdrawn. All the carriages were preserved, and most ended up with the Seymour Railway Heritage Centre, which continued to run tours on occasion until 2004.

Victorian Railways
The Victorian Railways (VR), trading from 1974 as VicRail, was the state-owned operator of most rail transport in the Australian state of Victoria from 1859 to 1983. The first railways in Victoria were private companies, but when these companies failed or defaulted, the Victorian Railways was established to take over their operations. Most of the lines operated by the Victorian Railways were of 5 ft 3 in (1,600 mm). However, the railways also operated up to five 2 ft 6 in (762 mm) narrow gauge lines between 1898 and 1962, and a 4 ft 8+1⁄2 in (1,435 mm) standard gauge line between Albury and Melbourne from 1961.

Minn of the Mississippi
Minn of the Mississippi is a children's book written and illustrated by Holling Clancy Holling. First published in 1951, it received a Newbery Honor award the following year.

The book tells the story of a snapping turtle that hatches near the headwaters of the Mississippi River. She then goes on a journey down the river to Louisiana and the river's delta as the massive watercourse empties into the Gulf of Mexico.  The turtle gets to see much of the Midwestern United States and American South along her way.

Like most of Holling's works, Minn is lushly illustrated, containing many full-page color paintings. Text pages are also generously illustrated with black-and-white pen-and-ink drawings, many with explanatory captions (to accompany the action of the story), in the margins.

Ferguson Peak
Ferguson Peak (54°47′S 35°50′W﻿ / ﻿54.783°S 35.833°W﻿ / -54.783; -35.833) is a peak, 560 metres (1,840 ft) high, standing close west of the head of Cooper Bay in the eastern extremity of South Georgia. It was photographed by Niall Rankin during his visit to South Georgia in 1947. Rankin did not disclose the locality because he wished to protect the fur seals found there and shown in his photo. The photo was identified as the feature now described by the British South Georgia Expedition, 1954–55, and the peak was unofficially named "Fur Seal Peak". Since Bird Island, at the west end of South Georgia, is now the only place where fur seals breed, this name is misleading. A new name, "Ferguson Peak" was recommended by the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee in 1957 for David Ferguson, a Scottish geologist, who carried out geological investigations in South Georgia in 1911–12 for Messrs. Christian Salvesen and Company.

David Ferguson (geologist)
David Ferguson (c. 1857 – 1936) was a Scottish explorer, mining engineer and prospector.

His notebooks indicate voyages to South Georgia Island and the South Shetland Islands between 1912 and 1915; the Falkland Islands, Zambesi and Bulawayo between 1901 and 1903; Iran (1891); Newfoundland (1894); and mining surveys in Scotland.  He is credited with naming several geographic locations in the south Atlantic region and Antarctica, and Ferguson Peak on South Georgia was named in his honour.

Takao II
Takao II (高尾; 1640 – December 5, 1659), also known as Sendai Takao or Manji Takao, was a tayū (highest-ranking courtesan) of the Yoshiwara red light district of Edo, and one of the most famous courtesans of Japan's Edo period (1603–1867). She debuted in 1655 as the leading courtesan of the Great Miura, the most prestigious Yoshiwara brothel of the day, and rapidly became the leading courtesan of the entirety of Yoshiwara.

Takao II would be one of between six and eleven courtesans to hold the myōseki (inherited name) of 'Takao'. She is particularly famous for her affair with daimyō Date Tsunamune; some time after her death, her story would be featured in kabuki (in the play Meiboku Sendai Hagi), in song and literature, though much of it would be fabricated and fictionalized.

Date Tsunamune
Date Tsunamune (伊達 綱宗; DAH-tay; 23 September 1640 – 19 July 1711) was an early Edo period Japanese samurai, and the third daimyō of Sendai Domain in northern Japan from 1658 to 1660, and the 19th hereditary chieftain of the Date clan. Tsunamune's succession and rule was soon opposed by a number of his kinsmen and vassals. This dispute eventually led to the Date Sōdō or "Date Disturbance" of 1671, which has been retold in theatre, and has become one of the more well-known tales of unrest and disunity among the daimyō of the Edo period.

She was present at the bombing of Darwin and survived unscathed.

Japanese submarine I-124

During the latter conflict, she operated in support of the Japanese invasion of the Philippines and was sunk during anti-shipping operations off Australia in January 1942.

The battle has been influential in both Islamic history and contemporary time because of the controversial jihad against other Muslims and Ramadan related fatwas issued by Ibn Taymiyyah. The battle, a disastrous defeat for the Mongols, put an end to Mongol invasions of the Levant. The Mamluk victory was achieved mainly thanks to the leadership skills and strategic thinking of Asandamur Kurjī. The Mongols were surprised by the Mamluk attack.

Mongol invasion of Syria
Starting in the 1240s, the Mongols made repeated invasions of Syria or attempts thereof. Most failed, but they did have some success in 1260 and 1300, capturing Aleppo and Damascus and destroying the Ayyubid dynasty. The Mongols were forced to retreat within months each time by other forces in the area, primarily the Egyptian Mamluks. The post-1260 conflict has been described as the Mamluk–Ilkhanid War.
