Noëlla Tricheux
Noëlla Tricheux (born in Havana on 17 October 1906 and died in Toulouse in 1988) was a French anarchist and anarcho-syndicalist activist. The daughter of Paule and Alphonse Tricheux, both anarchist activists, she followed in their footsteps by engaging in the French anarchist movement.

She accompanied her mother during her experiment in Puigcerdà during the Spanish Civil War. There, both participated in organizing the self-managed commune based on anarchist principles.

Paule Tricheux

Mokulito
Mokulito or Mokurito (from Japanese 木材 (mokuzai) 'wood' and lito as an abbreviation of lithography), also known as Wood Lithography, is a method of lithographic (and sometimes planographic) printmaking where a drawing is created on a wooden matrix in an oily medium, which is then used to make a print. In all kinds of lithography, because oil and water do not mix, the plate can be prepared by chemical processes so that the printing ink sticks to the drawn areas, and is repelled from the blank areas. In contrast to traditional lithography, which requires a limestone block, the tools for mokulito are easily accessible to printmakers without specialized equipment.

The technique was invented in the 1970s by Ozaku Seishi, a Japanese printmaker teaching at Tama Art University in Tokyo, Japan.

Planographic printing
Planographic printing means printing from a flat surface, as opposed to a raised surface (as with relief printing) or incised surface (as with intaglio printing). Lithography and offset lithography are planographic processes that rely on the property that water will not mix with oil. The image is created by applying a tusche (greasy substance) to a  plate or stone. The term lithography comes from litho, for stone, and -graph to draw. Certain parts of the semi-absorbent surface being printed on can be made receptive to ink while others (the blank parts) reject it.

Snake kung fu
Snake kung fu is a Shaolin boxing style, one of several Chinese martial arts known as "snake boxing" or "fanged snake style" (Chinese: 蛇拳; pinyin: shéquán; lit. 'snake fist') that imitate the movements of snakes. Proponents claim that adopting the fluidity of snakes allows them to entwine with their opponents in defense and strike them from angles they would not expect in offense. Snake style is said to especially lend itself to applications with the Chinese straight sword. The snake is also one of the animals imitated in Yang-style tai chi, Baguazhang and Xingyiquan. The sinuous, fluid motion of the snake lends itself to the practical theory that underlies the "soft" martial arts.

Different snake styles imitate different movements of snakes. Some, for example, imitate the Cylindrophiidae, while others imitate the python, while some schools imitate other types of snakes, like the viper and the cobra. There are two unrelated, Northern and Southern snake styles.

It was developed in the Shaolin Temple in Henan, China during its 1500-year history. In Chinese folklore there is a saying, "Shaolin kung fu is the best under heaven", which indicates its superiority among martial arts, and "All martial arts under heaven originated from Shaolin", which indicates its influence on other martial arts. The name Shaolin is also used as a brand for the external styles of kung fu. Many styles in southern and northern China use the name Shaolin.

The day was celebrated annually by the Ba'athist government, and Ba'athist media called it, "The Day of Glory and Dignity."

During much of Ba'athist Syria, the ruling Assad family created a cult of personality around the family, first around Hafez al-Assad, the leader of Syria from 1970 to 2000, then following Hafez's death, around his son and successor Bashar al-Assad. This cult developed to incredible proportions, involving numerous portraits, frescoes, images on money and statues, with the Assad family visible everywhere. The Assad regime had complete control over all mass media and all spheres of life in Syria, effectively spreading its cult of personality. Although Assad was not a Stalinist, he built a personality cult on the Stalinist model.
