Her work has been exhibited internationally, in both Turkey and New York.

Jeff Koons
Jeffrey Lynn Koons  (/kuːnz/; born January 21, 1955) is an American artist recognized for his work dealing with popular culture and his sculptures depicting everyday objects, including balloon animals produced in stainless steel with mirror-finish surfaces. He lives and works in both New York City and his hometown of York, Pennsylvania. His works have sold for substantial sums, including at least two record auction prices for a work by a living artist: US$58.4 million for Balloon Dog (Orange) in 2013 and US$91.1 million for Rabbit in 2019.

Critics come sharply divided in their views of Koons. Some view his work as pioneering and of major art-historical importance. Others dismiss his work as kitsch, crass, and based on cynical self-merchandising. Koons has stated that there are no hidden meanings or critiques in his works.

All fixed commemorations below are observed on February 9 by Eastern Orthodox Churches on the Old Calendar.

For January 27th, Orthodox Churches on the Old Calendar commemorate the Saints listed on January 14.

Devota
Devota (French: Sainte Dévote; Corsican: Santa Divota; died ca. 303 AD) is the patroness saint of Corsica and Monaco.  She was killed during the persecutions of the Roman Emperors Diocletian and Maximian. She is sometimes identified with another Corsican saint named Julia, who was described in Latin as Deo devota ("devoted to God").  The description was misinterpreted as a proper name.  The legend connected with her is similar to those told of other saints of the region, such as Reparata and Torpes of Pisa.
Radstadion Köln
The Radstadion Köln (also called Albert-Richter-Bahn) is a velodrome in Cologne.

The partly covered wooden track of 250 meters was designed and built by the famous cycling track architect Ralph Schürmann. This means it meets the Olympic standard. The veledrom bears the name of world champion Albert Richter and has a capacity of 4,500 with 2,500 seats.

Velodrome
A velodrome is an arena for track cycling. Modern velodromes feature steeply banked oval tracks, consisting of two 180-degree circular bends connected by two straights. The straights transition to the circular turn through a moderate easement curve.
Whicham
Whicham is a hamlet and civil parish in Cumberland, Cumbria, England. At the 2011 census the parish had a population of 382. The parish includes the villages of Silecroft and Kirksanton and the hamlets of Whicham and Whitbeck. Whicham was recorded in the Domesday Book as Witingham.

The parish has an area of 3,807.2 hectares (9,408 acres). It lies north of Millom on the west coast of Cumbria. The A595 road crosses it from north east to south west, near the south east border, coming from Broughton in Furness to a junction with the A5093 road, and then from south to north near the coast, towards Ravenglass and Whitehaven. The parish includes the hill Black Combe with a height of 600 metres (2,000 ft), one of Alfred Wainwright's "Outlying Fells".  The Cumbrian Coast Line railway follows the coast of the parish, with a station at Silecroft. The parish absorbed Whitbeck parish on 1 April 1934.

There is a parish council, the lowest level of local government.

A595 road
The A595 is a primary route in Cumbria, in Northern England that starts in Carlisle, passes through Whitehaven and goes close to Workington, Cockermouth and Wigton. It passes Sellafield and Ravenglass before ending at the Dalton-in-Furness by-pass, in southern Cumbria, where it joins the A590 trunk road. The road is mostly single carriageway, apart from in central Carlisle, where it passes the castle as a busy dual carriageway road named Castle Way, and prior to that as Bridge Street and Church Street, where it passes close to the McVitie's or Carr's biscuit factory. The Lillyhall bypass is also dual carriageway.

The road in the Whitehaven area was laid out in the 1930s and the A595 was designated a trunk route in 1946. It was detrunked in 1998, apart from an 18-mile (29 km) section between Little Clifton and Calder Bridge. This section represents the route from Sellafield to the A66.

At Duddon Bridge and at Dove Ford near Grizebeck the road passes through farmyards.
Achnanthaceae
Achnanthaceae is a family of algae belonging to the order Achnanthales, and was first described in 1844 by Friedrich Traugott Kützing.

Genera:

Achnanthes Bory, 1822

Amphicocconeis M.De Stephano & D.Marino, 2002

Diatomella

Haloroundia C.A.Düaz & N.I.Maidana, 2006

Friedrich Traugott Kützing
Friedrich Traugott Kützing  (8 December 1807 in Ritteburg – 9 September 1893) was a German pharmacist, botanist and phycologist.

Despite his limited background in regard to higher education, Kützing made significant scientific contributions. In 1833, he demonstrated differences between diatoms and desmids, thus separating the two groups into families of their own. Also, independent of Charles Cagniard-Latour (1777–1859) and Theodor Schwann (1810–1882), he was among the first to provide comprehensive answers in regard to yeast and the role it played in fermentation. In 1849, he published Species Algarum, a large work that provided descriptions for 6000 species of algae.

He is the taxonomic authority of the genera Syringodium (family Cymodoceaceae)  and Phlebothamnion (family Ceramiaceae).
United States at the Paralympics
The United States of America (USA), represented by the United States Olympic & Paralympic Committee, has participated in every Summer and Winter Paralympic Games and is currently first on the all-time medal table. The nation used to be a dominant Paralympic power in the 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s, but has steadily declined since the 1990s to a point where it finished sixth in the 2012 Summer Paralympics medal count. The team then improved to a fourth-place finish in 2016, and third in 2020, and unexpectedly finished first at the 2018 Winter Paralympics.

The United States was the co-host of the 1984 Summer Paralympics in Stoke Mandeville and New York. It also hosted the 1996 Summer Paralympics in Atlanta and 2002 Winter Paralympics in Salt Lake City.

2020 Summer Paralympics medal table
The medal table of the 2020 Summer Paralympics ranks the participating National Paralympic Committees (NPCs) by the number of gold medals that are won by their athletes during the competition. The 2020 Paralympics were the sixteenth Games to be held, a quadrennial competition open to athletes with physical and intellectual disabilities. The games were held in Tokyo, Japan from 24 August to 5 September 2021. There were 539 medal events.

Athletes from Costa Rica, Ecuador, El Salvador, Montenegro, and Oman won their first Paralympic medals. El Salvador and Oman had never won an Olympic medal. Costa Rica, Ecuador, Ethiopia, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka won their first Paralympic gold medals.
Habib ibn Muzahir
Habib ibn Muzahir (Arabic: حبيب بن مظاهر الأسدي, romanized: Ḥabīb ibn Muẓāhir al-Asadī) was a member of the Banu Asad clan and a companion of Ali, Hasan ibn Ali, and Husayn ibn Ali. He was among those in Kufa who invited Husayn ibn Ali to the city. When the people of Kufa broke their allegiance to Husayn, Habib reportedly left Kufa and joined Husayn. He was killed at the age of 75 during the Battle of Karbala.

Kufa
Kufa (Arabic: الْكُوفَة "al-Kūfah"), also spelled Kufah, is a city in Iraq, about 170 kilometres (110 mi) south of Baghdad, and 10 kilometres (6.2 mi) northeast of Najaf. It is located on the banks of the Euphrates River. The estimated population in 2003 was 110,000.

Along with Najaf, Karbala, Mashhad, Samarra, Kadhimiya and Qom, Kufa is one of the holiest cities in Shia Islam. The city was founded in 638 CE (17 Hijrah) during the reign of the second Rashidun Caliph, Umar ibn Al-Khattab, and it was the final capital of the last Rashidun Caliph, Ali ibn Abi Talib. Kufa was also the founding capital of the Abbasid Caliphate. During the Islamic Golden Age it was home to the grammarians of Kufa. Kufic script is named for the city.

The Palestinian keffiyeh, also known as kufiya and worn by Arab men, originated from Kufa, and is worn today to convey diverse political sentiments. Due to heightened global consumer demand, most keffiyehs are now manufactured in China.
Alpenus schraderi
Alpenus schraderi is a moth of the  family Erebidae. It was described by Walter Rothschild in 1910. It is found in Ethiopia, Sudan, Kenya, Uganda and Tanzania.

Its seeds—cocoa beans—are used to make chocolate liquor, cocoa solids, cocoa butter and chocolate.  Although the tree is native to the tropics of the Americas, the largest producer of cocoa beans in 2022 was Ivory Coast.
MS Athina B
The Athina B was a merchant ship. On 21 January 1980 she suffered engine failure in bad weather and beached at the English seaside resort of Brighton, to the east of the town's Palace Pier. The ship was a temporary tourist attraction, with the Volk's Electric Railway opening out of season to serve the large number of sightseers. The anchor of the ship is on display on Brighton seafront. A restaurant in Brighton bears the name of the ship and a painting of Athena B by Dennis Roxby Bott is in Brighton Museum.

Seaside resort
A seaside resort is a city, town, village, or hotel that serves as a vacation resort and is located on a coast. Sometimes the concept includes an aspect of an official accreditation based on the satisfaction of certain requirements such as in the German Seebad. Where a beach is the primary focus for tourists, it may be called a beach resort.

Stephen Corey Bryant
Stephen Corey Bryant (April 12, 1981 – November 14, 2025) was an American spree killer convicted of the 2004 fatal shootings of three men in Sumter County, South Carolina. Throughout an eight-day period in October 2004, Bryant shot each of his victims in four separate incidents, killing three of them and leaving a fourth seriously injured.

The first deceased victim, Bryant's acquaintance Clifton Dale Gainey, was shot and killed before being abandoned on the road; the second deceased victim, Willard Irving Tietjen Jr., was fatally shot inside his home during a robbery; and the final deceased victim, Christopher Earl Burgess, was shot dead and left on a rural road after encountering Bryant at a convenience store.

Bryant was found guilty of three counts of murder and sentenced to death on September 11, 2008. He was executed by firing squad on November 14, 2025.

Spree killer
A spree killer is someone who commits a criminal act that involves two or more murders in a short time, often in multiple locations. There are differing opinions about what durations of time a killing spree may take place in. The United States Bureau of Justice Statistics has spoken of "almost no time break between murders", but some academics consider that a killing spree may last weeks or months, e.g. the case of Andrew Cunanan, who murdered five people over three months, including fashion designer Gianni Versace.
Organpipe Point
Organpipe Point is a prominent east–west trending headland rising to about 60 or 70 m on the northwest coast of Varna Peninsula, Livingston Island in the South Shetland Islands, Antarctica and forming the north side of the entrance to Charybdis Cove and the southwest side of the entrance to Griffin Cove.

The feature is descriptively named in association with the notable doleritic rock showing sub-vertical continuous columnar joints resembling organ pipes.

Organ pipe
An organ pipe is a sound-producing element of the pipe organ that resonates at a specific pitch when pressurized air (commonly referred to as wind) is driven through it. Each pipe is tuned to a note of the musical scale. A set of organ pipes of similar timbre comprising the complete scale is known as a rank; one or more ranks constitutes a stop.

The previous NFL drafts in the 1950s were held in January; the first three rounds (37 selections) were moved up this year to late November to better compete with teams from Canada.

This was the tenth year that the first overall pick was a bonus pick determined by lottery. With the previous nine winners ineligible from the draw, only the Chicago Cardinals, Green Bay Packers, and Pittsburgh Steelers had an equal chance of winning. The draft lottery was won by Pittsburgh, who selected defensive back Gary Glick.
Nizami Aruzi
Ahmad ibn Umar ibn Alī, known as Nizamī-i Arūzī-i Samarqandī  (Persian: نظامی عروضی) and also Arudi ("The Prosodist"), was a  poet and prose writer who flourished between 1110 and 1161. He is particularly famous for his Chahar Maqala ("Four Discourses"), his only work to fully survive. While living in Samarqand, Abu’l-Rajaʾ Ahmad b. ʿAbd-Al-Ṣamad, a dehqan in Transoxiana, told Nezami of how the poet Rudaki was given compensation for his poem extolling the virtues of Samanid Amir Nasr b. Ahmad.

Dehqan
The dehqân (/dɛəˈkɑːn, ˌdeɪ-/; Persian: دهقان [deɦˈɢɒːn], dihqân in Classical Persian) or dehgân (/dɛəˈɡɑːn, ˌdeɪ-/; Persian: دهگان [deɦˈgɒːn]) were a class of land-owning magnates during the Sasanian and early Islamic period, found throughout Iranian lands. The dehqans started to gradually fade away under the Seljuks and Qarakhanids, due to the increase of the iqta' (land grants) and the decline of the landowning class. By the time of their dissolution, they had played a key role in preserving the Iranian national identity. Their Islamization and cultural Iranianization of the Turks led to the establishment of the Iranian essence within the Islamic world, something which would continue throughout the Middle Ages and far into modern times.

Lebowa
Lebowa was a Bantustan ("homeland") located in the Transvaal in northeastern South Africa. Seshego initially acted as Lebowa's capital while the purpose-built Lebowakgomo was being constructed.  Granted internal self-government on 2 October 1972 and ruled for much of its existence by Cedric Phatudi, Lebowa was reincorporated into South Africa in 1994. It became part of the Limpopo province. The territory was not contiguous, being divided into two major and several minor portions.

Even though Lebowa included large swathes of Sekukuniland and was seen as a home for the Northern Sotho speaking ethnic groups such as the Pedi people, it was also home to various non-Northern Sotho speaking tribes, including the Northern Ndebele, Batswana and VaTsonga.

Clarence-Rockland
Clarence-Rockland is a city in Eastern Ontario, Canada, in the United Counties of Prescott and Russell on the Ottawa River. Clarence-Rockland, located immediately to the east of Ottawa, was formed on January 1, 1998, through the amalgamation of the Town of Rockland with Clarence Township.

The geographic Township of Clarence was established in 1798 and named after Prince William Henry, Duke of Clarence. Communities were established in the township since the early 1840s. In July 1853, the Township Municipality of Clarence was created when it separated from the United Township of Russell, Cambridge and Clarence. Rockland was incorporated as a town in 1908.
Bo'ame
Bo'ame (Somali: Boocame) is an ancient town in the eastern Sool region. It is the capital of Bo'ame district which includes the small towns of Karin-gorfood, Fardhidin, Dan-Gudban, Caleeli, Buura-wadal and Garaca Dacare and Biriqodayaga.

Until May 2022, Puntland had effective control, then Somaliland forces entered and took over the area. There was a conflict between Puntland and Somaliland in Bo'ame district in August 2022. In early January 2023, the Dhulbahante clan declared Sool and Sanaag regions, including Bo'ame, as SSC-Khatumo state, aligned with Somalia, and requested the Somaliland military to withdraw from the area.

Bo'ame serves as the district’s local market hub for surrounding agro-pastoral communities, with studies citing Bo'ame in market and value-chain assessments; the town is also referenced in national reports for agricultural programming in Sool.

Sanaag
Sanag (Somali: Sanaag, Arabic: سَنَاج) is an administrative region (gobol) in north eastern Somaliland. Sanaag has a long coastline facing the Gulf of Aden to the north, and is bordered by the region of Sahil to the west, Sool to the south and Somalia to the east.
