Wilhelm Koenen
Wilhelm Koenen (7 April 1886 – 19 October 1963) was a German communist journalist and politician who served in several legislative positions in the Weimar Republic and East Germany between 1919 and 1963. He also served as the first co-chairman of the Socialist Unity Party in Saxony from 1946 to 1948.

State of Saxony (1945–1952)

Liechtenstein at the Paralympics
Liechtenstein made its Paralympic Games début at the 1984 Summer Paralympics in Stoke Mandeville and New York City, entering just one athlete (Iris Schaedler) in athletics. The country competed again at the 1988 and 1992 Summer Games, and at the 1992 and 1994 Winter Games. It was then absent from the Paralympics until the 2004 Summer Games in Athens, where it sent just one table tennis player, Peter Frommelt. Liechtenstein was absent from the 2006 and 2010 Winter Games and the 2008 Summer Games.

Liechtenstein has won a single Paralympic medal: a bronze in alpine skiing in 1994.

Liechtenstein is the second smallest sovereign country, and the third smallest National Paralympic Committee (after Macau), ever to have competed at the Paralympic Games - as Tuvalu, Nauru, Monaco and the Vatican City have yet to do so.

As in the  Olympics, Liechtenstein is the only participating country to have won a medal only at the Winter Paralympic Games but not in the summer event.

Macau at the Paralympics
Macau's Paralympic Committee was founded in 1979, and the territory first competed at the Summer Paralympic Games in 1988. It has competed in every edition of the Summer Games since then, with the exception of the Summer Paralympic Games in 2020, but has never participated in the Winter Paralympic Games.

Macau has also had an Olympic committee since 1987, which is recognized by Asian Olympic Committees and Portuguese Speaking Olympic Committees, but not recognized by the International Olympic Committee. Should athletes in the territory wish to compete in the Olympic Games, they would need to compete for the People's Republic of China or Hong Kong. However, this conflicts with the Macau Basic Law (Macau must participate in any international activities as an independent entity different from mainland China), so no athletes in Macau have had the chance to participate in the Olympic Games so far.
Maria Velotti
Maria Velotti (16 November 1826 - 3 September 1886), religious name Maria Luigia del Santissimo Sacramento, was an Italian religious sister. She was a member in the Third Order of Saint Francis and the founder of the Suore Francescane Adoratrici della Santa Croce. In her childhood she was raised in two different households after her parents died and she was exposed to the Franciscan charism under her second spiritual director. In 1854 she was professed into the Franciscan Third Order and in 1877 founded her religious order. Velotti also experienced several visions in her life such as visions of Jesus Christ and Francis of Assisi. Pope Francis beatified her in  2020.

Religious sister
A religious sister (abbreviated: Sr.) is a Christian woman who has taken public vows in a religious order dedicated to apostolic works. Though often referred to as nuns, they are canonically distinct. Nuns, religious sisters and canonesses all use the term "Sister" as a form of address. Religious sisters are found in various traditions of Christianity, particularly Catholicism, Evangelical Lutheranism and Anglicanism. In the Catholic Church, religious sisters are associated with a religious institute.

Spring Station, Kentucky
Spring Station, Kentucky is an unincorporated community in the northern part of Woodford County, Kentucky located approximately three miles west of Midway. The area is said to have been settled during the early part of the 19th century and it became a station stop on the Lexington and Ohio Railroad line when it was opened through the village in 1833.

According to the University of Kentucky, it "was named for several nearby springs and may also have been known as Big Spring Station." A postal outlet operated at Spring Station from year 1856 to 1973.

Spring Station was home to the Woodburn Stud, a thoroughbred and standardbred horse breeding operation built by Robert A. Alexander which became the birthplace of Kentucky's Thoroughbred industry.

Wilson Kiprugut's bronze was the first medal by Kenya in any event; Kenya would become a frequent fixture on the men's 800 metres podium.
Calogaya haloxyli
Calogaya haloxyli is a species of epiphytic, squamulose lichen in the family Teloschistaceae. Found in Northeast China and Iran, it was formally described as a new species in 2018 by Mahroo Moniri, Hurnisa Shahidin, and Jan Vondrák. The type specimen was collected from the Dzungaria basin desert at an altitude of 439 m (1,440 ft), where it was found growing on the stems of old Haloxylon persicum plants. The species epithet refers to the genus of its host. At the time of its publication, the lichen had been recorded from the Dzungaria basin and Tian Shan Mountains in China, and once in northeastern Iran. It is found at elevation ranges between 430 and 2,710 m (1,410 and 8,890 ft).

Squamulose lichen
A squamulose lichen is a lichen that is composed of small, often overlapping "scales" called squamules. If they are raised from the substrate and appear leafy, the lichen may appear to be a foliose lichen, but the underside does not have a "skin" (cortex), as foliose lichens do.
 Squamulose lichens are composed of flattish units that are usually tightly clustered. They are like an intermediate between crustose and foliose lichens.

Examples of squamulose lichens include Vahliella leucophaea, Cladonia subcervicornis and Lichenomphalia hudsoniana.
Czerwone Wierchy
Czerwone Wierchy (Slovak: Červené vrchy, also known as Red Peaks) are a group of four grassy and domed peaks located on the main ridge of the Western Tatras on the border between Poland and Slovakia.

Czerwone Wierchy are made up of the following summits (west to east):

Ciemniak / Temniak (2096 m)

Krzesanica / Kresanica (2122 m)

Małołączniak / Malolúčniak (2096 m)

Kopa Kondracka / Kondratova kopa (2005 m)

They mostly consist of sedimentary rocks, such as limestone or dolomite, however their summits are covered in granite and other crystalline rocks.

The massif features numerous limestone caves, including the Jaskinia Wielka Śnieżna, the longest and deepest cave in Poland.

Oreojuncus trifidus
Oreojuncus trifidus is a species of rush known by the common names highland rush and three-leaved rush. It is native to the Northern Hemisphere, where it is an arctic/montane species with an amphi-atlantic distribution.: 46

Quality control and genetic algorithms
The combination of quality control and genetic algorithms led to novel solutions of complex quality control design and optimization problems. Quality is the degree to which a set of inherent characteristics of an entity fulfils a need or expectation that is stated, general implied or obligatory. ISO 9000 defines quality control as "A part of quality management focused on fulfilling quality requirements". Genetic algorithms are search algorithms, based on the mechanics of natural selection and natural genetics.

Quality management
Quality management (QM) ensures that an organization, product, or service consistently performs as intended. It has four main components: quality planning, quality assurance, quality control, and quality improvement. Customers recognize that quality is an important attribute when choosing and purchasing products and services. Suppliers can recognize that quality is an important differentiator of their offerings, and endeavor to compete on the quality of their products and the service they offer. Thus, quality management is focused both on product and service quality.

Donkey punch (cocktail)
Donkey punch is a punch or cocktail made of one part rum, three parts orange juice, two parts ginger ale, one part pineapple juice, and grenadine syrup. The ingredients are poured into shaker filled with ice and shaken well before being poured into a large glass filled with ice cubes. The ingredients can also be mixed together in a punch bowl and served with ice and orange slices floating on top.

Punch bowl
A punch bowl or punchbowl is a bowl, often large and wide, for serving mixed drinks such as hippocras, punch or mulled wine, with a ladle. A monteith (seau crennelé in French) is a similar bowl, usually of silver or pottery, scalloped around the edge. It was mainly a wine cooler, designed for cooling glasses in icy water, the feet of the glasses held in the notches, but could be used as a punchbowl.  Monteiths appear in Britain around 1680, and were popular until the 1720s or so.

Very large examples, like the Jerningham wine cooler, are usually called a wine cistern. These were more often used as wine coolers, for cooling wine bottles with icy water, but for a large party might be used as punchbowls. Tureens normally used for soup or other food might also be used.
