Twenty lei
The twenty lei banknote is one of the circulating denominations of the Romanian lei.

The main color of the banknote is Olive green. It depicts heroine and soldier  Ecaterina Teodoroiu on the obverse and Mausoleum of Mărășești with Victoria as depicted on the Romanian Victory Medal.

In 2021 National Bank of Romania has officially presented the new 20-lei banknote, which has been put into circulation starting from 1 December 2021. It is the first banknote with legal tender to feature a female personality.

It is printed using the offset printing technique (like the one leu and five lei banknotes). The official reason was the prevention of counterfeiting.

National Bank of Romania
The National Bank of Romania (Romanian: Banca Națională a României, BNR) is the central bank of Romania, established in April 1880 and headquartered in Bucharest. It is responsible for the issue of the Romanian leu and as such it sets the monetary policy, holds the currency reserves and manages the exchange rate.

Under European Union policy frameworks, the BNR is a voting member of the Board of Supervisors of the European Banking Authority (EBA). European Insurance and Occupational Pensions Authority (EIOPA), and European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA). It also provides the permanent single common representative for Romania in the Supervisory composition of the General Board of the Anti-Money Laundering Authority (AMLA). It is also a member of the European Systemic Risk Board (ESRB).
Ministry of Public Works (Albania)
The Ministry of Public Works (Albanian: Ministria e Punëve Botore or Ministria e Punëve Publike) was a department of the Albanian government in the early beginnings of the newly formed Albanian State. Established as an institution since the first provisional government of Ismail Qemali, on December 4, 1912, the ministry would play an important role in later governments and continued to function even after the war until it was broken up into several ministries, starting with the Hoxha III Cabinet. Its status would briefly reemerge in 1996 during the Meksi II Government and lasting until 2002.
The ministry was tasked with supervising construction projects, the maintenance of roads, bridges, state buildings and general utilities infrastructure.

Provisional Government of Albania
The Provisional Government of Albania (Albanian: Qeveria e Përkohshme e Shqipërisë), also called the Qemali Government, was the first government of Albania, created by the Assembly of Vlorë on 4 December 1912. It was a paternal government, led by Ismail Qemali, until his resignation on 22 January 1914, followed by the International Control Commission until the proclamation of the Principality of Albania.

Since then, the label continued to put out major releases. However, by the 2020s, most major acts had left the label; it was also acquired by Warner, being relegated to something much smaller than before.
Cordierite
Cordierite (mineralogy) or iolite (gemology) is a magnesium iron aluminium cyclosilicate. Iron is almost always present, and a solid solution exists between Mg-rich cordierite and Fe-rich sekaninaite with a series formula: (Mg,Fe)2Al3(Si5AlO18) to (Fe,Mg)2Al3(Si5AlO18). A high-temperature polymorph exists, indialite, which is isostructural with beryl and has a random distribution of Al in the (Si,Al)6O18 rings. Cordierite is also synthesized and used in high temperature applications such as catalytic converters and pizza stones.

Mineralogy
Mineralogy is a subject of geology specializing in the scientific study of the chemistry, crystal structure, and physical (including optical) properties of minerals and mineralized artifacts. Specific studies within mineralogy include the processes of mineral origin and formation, classification of minerals, their geographical distribution, and their utilization.
Sweet Robots Against the Machine
Sweet Robots Against the Machine is the eponymous debut album by Sweet Robots Against the Machine, a pseudonym for Japanese music producer Towa Tei, released on February 10, 1997 by East West Records. It includes a cover version of Patrice Rushen's "Forget Me Nots".

Forget Me Nots
"Forget Me Nots" is a song by American R&B musician Patrice Rushen, released in April 1982 by Elektra Records as the first single from her seventh album, Straight from the Heart (1982). The song is co-written by Rushen with Freddie Washington and Terri McFaddin, and was produced by Rushen. It received very little support from the record label, but became successful on the charts, peaking at No. 23 and 22 on the US Billboard Hot 100 and Cash Box Top 100, as well as No. 8 on the UK Singles Chart. It also earned Rushen her first nomination for Best Female R&B Vocal Performance at the 1983 Grammy Awards. Since its release, the song has been sampled and interpolated in several songs, including "Fastlove" by George Michael in 1996 and "Men in Black" by Will Smith in 1997.
Petit lac Batiscan
The Petit lac Batiscan (English: Little Batiscan Lake) is a freshwater body in the head zone of the Petite rivière Batiscan, in the territory of the town of Saint-Raymond, in the Portneuf Regional County Municipality, in the administrative region of Capitale-Nationale, in the province of Quebec, in Canada.

The area around Little Batiscan Lake is served by secondary forest roads. Forestry is the main economic activity in the sector; recreational tourism, second.

The surface of Little Batiscan Lake is usually frozen from the beginning of December to the end of March, however the safe circulation on the ice is generally made from mid-December to mid-March.

Batiscan River
Batiscan River (French pronunciation: [batiskɑ̃]) has its source in the region of Lac Édouard, in the Laurentians Mountains, the Batiscan River flows over a length of 177 km. It receives water from numerous tributaries, including, in its upper reach, the Rivière aux Éclairs and the Jeannotte River. In its downstream part, it waters Saint-Narcisse and Sainte-Geneviève-de-Batiscan before flowing into the St. Lawrence River at Batiscan.
Red Electoral Alliance
Red Electoral Alliance (Bokmål: Rød Valgallianse, Nynorsk: Raud Valallianse, RV) was an alliance of far-left groups formed into a Norwegian political party to promote revolutionary socialism ideals into the Norwegian parliament. The party dissolved itself on 10 March 2007, when it participated in the founding of a new party, Red (Rødt).

Raud Ungdom or Rød Ungdom (Red Youth) was their youth organization.

Nynorsk
Nynorsk (Urban East Norwegian: [ˈnŷːnɔʂk] ⓘ; lit. 'Modern Norwegian'  or 'New Norwegian')  is one of the two official written standards of the Norwegian language, the other being Bokmål. From 12 May 1885, it became the state-sanctioned version of Ivar Aasen's standard Norwegian language (Landsmål), parallel to the Dano-Norwegian written standard known as Riksmål. The name Nynorsk was introduced in 1929. After a series of reforms, it is still the written standard closer to Landsmål, whereas Bokmål is closer to Riksmål and Danish.

Between 10 and 15 percent of Norwegians (primarily in the west around the city of Bergen) have Nynorsk as their official language form, estimated by the number of students attending secondary schools. Nynorsk is also taught as a mandatory subject in both high school and middle school for all Norwegians who do not have it as their own language form.
Haacke
Haacke is a German surname, a variation of Haack. It is derived from the Old German word haak, meaning "hook" or "crook".

Notable people with the surname include:

Hans Haacke (born 1936), German artist

Julia Haacke (born 1971), German actress

Julian von Haacke (born  1994), German footballer

Wilhelm Haacke (1855–1912), German zoologist

Hook
A hook is a tool consisting of a length of material, typically metal, that contains a portion that is curved/bent back or has a deeply grooved indentation, which serves to grab, latch or in any way attach itself onto another object. The hook's design allows traction forces to be relayed through the curved/indented portion to and from the proximal end of the hook, which is either a straight shaft (known as the hook's shank) or a ring (sometimes called the hook's "eye") for attachment to a thread, rope or chain, providing a reversible attachment between two objects.

In many cases, the distal end of the hook is sharply pointed to enable penetration into the target material, providing a firmer anchorage. Some hooks, particularly fish hooks, also have a barb, a backwards-pointed projection near the pointed end that functions as a secondary "mini-hook" to catch and trap surrounding material, ensuring that the hook point cannot be easily pulled back out once embedded in the target.
Auld Lang Syne (1937 film)
Auld Lang Syne is a 1937 British historical drama film directed by James A. FitzPatrick and starring Andrew Cruickshank, Christine Adrian and Marian Spencer. It portrays the life of the eighteenth century Scottish poet Robert Burns. The film was a quota quickie, produced at Shepperton Studios for distribution by MGM. Quota costume films were rare, as the costs generally exceeded the limited budgets allowed for productions.

Film distribution
Film distribution, also called film exhibition or film distribution and exhibition, is the process of making a film available for viewing to an audience. This is normally the task of a professional film distributor, who would determine the marketing and release strategy for the film, the media by which a film is to be exhibited or made available for viewing and other matters. The film may be exhibited directly to the public either through a movie theater, physical media (DVD, Blu-ray), digital download/transactional video on demand (VOD) (sale or rental), subscription VOD (e.g. Amazon Prime Video, Apple TV+, Disney+, Netflix) or television programs through broadcast syndication. For commercial projects, film distribution is usually accompanied by film promotion.

Boris Shklovskii
Boris Ionovich Shklovskii (born 1944) is a Russian theoretical physicist, at the William I Fine Theoretical Physics Institute, University of Minnesota, specializing in condensed matter. Shklovskii earned his A.B. degree in Physics, in 1966 and a Ph.D. in condensed matter theory, in 1968 from Leningrad University.

Shklovskii is known for the Efros–Shklovskii variable-range hopping conductivity, a model for the temperature dependence of the electrical conductivity in the variable-range hopping regime.
He has also made important contributions to the theory of the Quantum Hall effect (explaining the structure of conducting edge channels and predicting the formation of Quantum Hall stripe and bubble phases) and to the theory of macromolecules (developing the theory of electrostatic charge inversion).

Macromolecule
A macromolecule is a "molecule of high relative molecular mass, the structure of which essentially comprises the multiple repetition of units derived, actually or conceptually, from molecules of low relative molecular mass." Polymers are physical examples of macromolecules. Common macromolecules are biopolymers (nucleic acids, proteins, and carbohydrates), polyolefins (polyethylene) and polyamides (nylon).
Al Khater
The Al Khater (Arabic: آل خاطر) family is a prestigious family in the Arabian Peninsula. They belong to Al Buainain of Banu Tamim. The family expands in several Arabian Peninsula countries including Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Bahrain. The Al Khater are the ones who built two major cities in the Arabian Peninsula which are Jubail in Saudi Arabia and the former capital of Qatar, Al Wakrah.

The Al Khater has close family and political ties with Al Saud, the rulers of Saudi Arabia; Al Khalifa, the rulers of Bahrain; and, Al Thani, the rulers of Qatar.

Ministry of foreign affairs
In many countries, the ministry of foreign affairs (abbreviated as MFA or MOFA) is the highest government department exclusively or primarily responsible for the state's foreign policy and relations, diplomacy, bilateral, and multilateral relations affairs as well as for providing support, including consular services, for a country's citizens who are abroad. The entity is usually headed by a foreign minister or minister of foreign affairs (the title may vary, such as a secretary of state who has the same functions). The foreign minister typically reports to the head of government (such as prime minister or president).
Solar eclipse of October 12, 1958
A total solar eclipse occurred at the Moon's ascending node of orbit on Sunday, October 12, 1958, with a magnitude of 1.0608. A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes between Earth and the Sun, thereby totally or partly obscuring the image of the Sun for a viewer on Earth. A total solar eclipse occurs when the Moon's apparent diameter is larger than the Sun's, blocking all direct sunlight, turning day into darkness. Totality occurs in a narrow path across Earth's surface, with the partial solar eclipse visible over a surrounding region thousands of kilometres wide. Occurring about 5.5 hours before perigee (on October 13, 1958, at 2:30 UTC), the Moon's apparent diameter was larger.

Totality was visible in Tokelau, Cook Islands, French Polynesia, Chile and Argentina. A partial eclipse was visible for parts of Eastern Australia, Oceania, and western South America.

Angular diameter
The angular diameter, angular width, angular size, apparent diameter, or apparent size is an angular separation (in units of angle) describing how large a sphere or circle appears from a given point of view. In the vision sciences, it is called the visual angle, and in optics, it is the angular aperture (of a lens). The angular diameter can alternatively be thought of as the angular displacement through which an eye or camera must rotate to look from one side of an apparent circle to the opposite side.

A person can resolve with their naked eyes diameters down to about 1 arcminute (approximately 0.017° or 0.0003 radians). This corresponds to 0.3 m at a 1 km distance, or to perceiving Venus as a disk under optimal conditions.

Edward J. Smith (American politician)
Edward Smith (May 1927 – September 2010) was a member of the Rhode Island House of Representatives from 1980 to 1994, representing District 92 in Tiverton. He served as Chairman of the RI Coastal Resources Management Council, Vice Chairman of Narragansett Bay Commission and Chairman of the R.I. Joint Legislative Committee on Environment and Energy.

A 30 year veteran of the U.S. Navy, Smith was one of a relatively small group of men to serve in combat positions in World War II, the Korean War and the Vietnam War. He was prime recovery officer for John Glenn and NASA’s 6 Friendship 7 capsule.

Mercury-Atlas 6
Mercury-Atlas 6 (MA-6) was the first crewed American orbital spaceflight, which took place on February 20, 1962. Piloted by astronaut John Glenn and operated by NASA as part of Project Mercury, it was the fifth human spaceflight, preceded by Soviet orbital flights Vostok 1 and 2 and American sub-orbital flights Mercury-Redstone 3 and 4.

The Mercury spacecraft, named Friendship 7, was carried to orbit by an Atlas LV-3B launch vehicle lifting off from Launch Complex 14 at Cape Canaveral, Florida. After three orbits, the spacecraft re-entered the Earth's atmosphere, splashed down in the North Atlantic Ocean, and was safely taken aboard USS Noa. The total mission flight time was 4 hours 55 minutes and 23 seconds.
Maine Legislative Document 233
Maine Legislative Document 233 (LD 233) is a proposed 2025 law in the state of Maine that would prohibit transgender women from competing in women's sports if they compete in a school funded by the state. It passed the Maine House of Representatives on June 13, 2025, but failed its first vote in the Senate on June 16, 2025.

The topic of trans women in women's sports in Maine has gained both local and national attention. LD 233 followed a series of attacks and threats against Maine and Governor Janet Mills by the second Trump administration due to its current laws allowing transgender women to compete in women's sports, mostly involving threats to cut federal funding to Maine. The Department of Justice launched a lawsuit against Maine for the issue on April 16, 2025. West Virginia v. B. P. J., a case involving the same topic, is pending before the Supreme Court of the United States.

Maine Senate
44°18′26″N 69°46′54″W﻿ / ﻿44.307138°N 69.781586°W﻿ / 44.307138; -69.781586

The Maine Senate is the upper house of the Maine Legislature, the state legislature of the U.S. state of Maine. The Senate currently consists of 35 members representing an equal number of districts across the state, though the Maine Constitution allows for "an odd number of Senators, not less than 31 nor more than 35". Unlike the lower House, the Senate does not set aside nonvoting seats for Native tribes.  Because it is a part-time position, members of the Maine Senate usually have outside employment as well.

The Senate meets at the Maine State House in Augusta. Members are limited to four consecutive terms with each term being two years but may run again after a two-year wait.
