Bryan Deasley
Bryan Deasley (born November 26, 1968) is a Canadian former professional ice hockey winger. He was a first round selection, 19th overall, by the Calgary Flames at the 1987 National Hockey League (NHL) Entry Draft.  He never reached the NHL and retired in 1993 after one season touring with the Canadian National Team and four in the minor leagues.  Deasley worked as a player agent for several years.

1987 NHL entry draft
The 1987 NHL entry draft was the 25th NHL entry draft. It was held at Joe Louis Arena in Detroit, Michigan, and was the first draft held in the United States. The National Hockey League (NHL) teams selected 252 players eligible for entry into professional ranks, in the reverse order of the 1986–87 NHL season and playoff standings.

The last active player in the NHL from this draft class was Mathieu Schneider, who retired after the 2009–10 season.
Grünfeld Defence
The Grünfeld Defence is a chess opening characterised by the moves:

1. d4 Nf6

2. c4 g6

3. Nc3 d5

Black offers White the possibility of 4.cxd5, which may be followed by 4...Nxd5 and 5.e4, giving White an imposing central pawn duo. If White does not take the d5-pawn, Black may eventually play ...dxc4, when a White response of e4 again leads to the same pawn structure. In classical opening theory this imposing pawn centre was held to give White a large advantage, but the hypermodern school, which was coming to the fore in the 1920s, held that a large pawn centre could be a liability rather than an asset. The Grünfeld is therefore a key hypermodern opening, showing in stark terms how a large pawn centre can either be a powerful battering ram or a target for attack.

May 2107 lunar eclipse
A penumbral lunar eclipse will occur at the Moon’s ascending node of orbit on Saturday, May 7, 2107, with an umbral magnitude of −0.9356. A lunar eclipse occurs when the Moon moves into the Earth's shadow, causing the Moon to be darkened. A penumbral lunar eclipse occurs when part or all of the Moon's near side passes into the Earth's penumbra. Unlike a solar eclipse, which can only be viewed from a relatively small area of the world, a lunar eclipse may be viewed from anywhere on the night side of Earth. The Moon's apparent diameter will be near the average diameter because it will occur 6.8 days after perigee (on April 30, 2107, at 10:00 UTC) and 6.9 days before apogee (on May 14, 2107, at 1:50 UTC).

This eclipse will be too small to be visually perceptible.

Lunar node
A lunar node is either of the two orbital nodes of the Moon; that is, the two points at which the orbit of the Moon intersects the ecliptic. The ascending (or north) node is where the Moon moves into the northern ecliptic hemisphere, while the descending (or south) node is where the Moon enters the southern ecliptic hemisphere.

They are the reason for eclipse season, being the intersection necessary for the alignment of Sun, Earth and Moon.

Two types of colouration are clearly visible on the smooth coat: the reddish brown back or the "saddle", and the lighter flanks, fawn to buff. The horns, present only on males, are lyre-shaped. Curving backward then slightly forward, these measure 25–44 cm (10–17+1⁄2 in).

In Greek mythology, Picolous (Ancient Greek: Πικόλοος, Pikóloos) is the name of one of the Gigantes, the offspring of the earth-goddess Gaia and the sky-god Uranus. Picolous fought against the Olympian gods during the Gigantomachy. When the Giants lost, he fled the battle, only to be slain shortly thereafter by the sun-god Helios when the giant attempted to attack his daughter Circe on Aeaea, her island.

Picolous's role in the Gigantomachy is attested by two Byzantine scholars of the Middle Ages, Eustathius of Thessalonica and Patriarch Photios I of Constantinople, both of which quote earlier writers, Alexander of Paphos and Ptolemaeus Chennus respectively.

Aeaea
Aeaea, Ææa, Ææ̈ä or Eëä (/iː.ˈiː.ə/ ee-EE-ə or /ə.ˈiː.ə/ ə-EE-ə; Ancient Greek: Αἰαία, romanized: Aiaíā [ai̯.ǎi̯.aː]) was a mythological island said to be the home of the goddess-sorceress Circe.

"Circe would fain have held me back in her halls, the guileful lady of Aeaea, yearning that I should be her husband". (Homer, Odyssey, Book IX.32; trans. A.T. Murray; Loeb Classical Library 1919).

In Homer's Odyssey, Odysseus tells Alcinous that he stayed here for one year on his way home to Ithaca.  Before leaving Aeaea, Odysseus was given instructions by Circe about how to cross the ocean and assisted by the North Wind to reach the underworld:

When your ship has traversed the stream of Oceanus, you will reach the fertile shore of Persephone's country with its groves of tall poplars and willows that shed their fruit untimely; here beach your ship upon the shore of Oceanus, and go straight on to the dark abode of Hades.
2006 United Kingdom local elections
The 2006 United Kingdom local elections were held on Thursday 4 May 2006.

Several councils elected half of their seats: these were Adur, Cheltenham, Fareham, Gosport, Hastings, Nuneaton and Bedworth, and Oxford. Local elections follow a four-year cycle, and the 2006 election was the follow-on from the 2002 elections.

Mayoral contests were held in the London boroughs of Hackney, Lewisham and Newham, and in Watford.  Crewe and Nantwich held a referendum on the issue of whether or not to have a directly elected mayor.

This was the first set of elections since David Cameron was elected leader of the Conservative Party. The Conservatives strengthened their position as the largest party in local government, making headway against Labour.

Metropolitan borough
A metropolitan borough (or metropolitan district) is a type of local government district in England. Created in 1974 by the Local Government Act 1972, metropolitan boroughs are defined in English law as metropolitan districts within metropolitan counties. All of the metropolitan districts have been granted or regranted royal charters giving them borough status (and in some cases, they also have city status). Metropolitan boroughs have been effectively unitary authority areas since the abolition of metropolitan county councils by the Local Government Act 1985. Metropolitan boroughs pool much of their authority in joint boards and other arrangements that cover whole metropolitan counties, such as local enterprise partnerships and combined authorities, with most of the latter having a directly elected metropolitan mayor.
