Clara d'Anduza
Clara d'Anduza was a trobairitz from the first third of the 13th century, probably born to the ruling family of Anduze. Her only surviving work is a canso beginning En greu esmay et en greu pessamen ("In grave distress and great trouble"). This poem describes her suffering and attributes her separation from her amic to the harm done by slanderers (lauzingier). The poem connects to other common motifs in other works by women troubadour: unfailing infidelity, self-reflexivity, and metaphors representing love, pain, and desire. She was mentioned in a long razo to a canso of Uc de Saint Circ and was probably the addressee of a salut of Azalais d'Altier. A narrative commentary on Uc de Saint Circ's "Anc mais non vi temps ni sanzo" identifies Uc as Clara's secretary and would-be lover. She was probably acquainted with Pons de Capduelh.

Canso (song)
The canso or canson or canzo (Old Occitan: [kanˈsu]) was a song style used by the troubadours. It was, by far, the most common genre used, especially by early troubadours, and only in the second half of the 13th century was its dominance challenged by a growing number of poets writing coblas esparsas.

Its political programme was based on agrarianism and agrarian socialism, and was similar to the one of  Polish People's Party "Wyzwolenie" that operated in Poland.

1922 Republic of Central Lithuania general election
The general election in the Republic of Central Lithuania was an election to the Vilnius Sejm (parliament) of the Polish-dominated Republic of Central Lithuania on 8 January 1922. The new parliament was intended to formally legalize incorporation of Central Lithuania into Poland. Such measure was fiercely opposed by Lithuania, which claimed the territory for itself. The election was boycotted by non-Polish population and its results were unrecognized by either the Lithuanian government in Kaunas or the League of Nations. The elected parliament convened in February and, as expected, voted on 20 February 1922 to have the Republic incorporated into Poland. At the end of March 1922, Central Lithuania became Wilno Land of the Second Polish Republic.

In aeronautics, the final approach (also called the final leg and final approach leg) is the last leg in an aircraft's approach to landing, when the aircraft is lined up with the runway and descending for landing. In aviation radio terminology, it is often shortened to "final". The last section of the final approach is sometimes referred to as short final.

In a standard airport landing pattern, which is usually used under visual meteorological conditions (VMC), aircraft turns from base leg to final within one-half to two miles of the airport. For instrument approaches, as well as approaches into a controlled airfield under visual flight rules (VFR), often  a "straight-in" final approach is used, where all the other legs are dispensed within. Straight-in approaches are discouraged at non-towered airports in the United States.

Asian studies
Asian studies is the term used usually in North America and Australia for what in Europe is known as Oriental studies.

The International Institute for Asian Studies (IIAS) only considers Asia to the east of the Indus River in its scope of "Asian Studies".
