Farrukhi Sistani
Abu'l-Hasan Ali ibn Julugh Farrukhi Sistani (Persian: ابوالحسن علی بن جولوغ فرخی سیستانی), better known as Farrukhi Sistani (فرخی سیستانی; c. 1000 – 1040) was one of the most prominent Persian court poets in the history of Persian literature.

Nothocestrum peltatum
Nothocestrum peltatum, the Oʻahu ʻaiea, is a species of flowering plant in the nightshade family, Solanaceae, that is endemic to the island of Kauaʻi in Hawaiʻi. It can be found in mesic forests at elevations of 915–1,220 metres (3,002–4,003 ft). There are only about 23 individuals remaining.

Oʻahu ʻaiea is threatened by habitat loss. It is also threatened by introduced species of plants in its habitat, such as banana poka (Passiflora tarminiana), passionfruit (Passiflora edulis), daisy fleabane (Erigeron karvinskianus) (daisy fleabane), lantana (Lantana camara), blackberry (Rubus argutus), karakanut (Corynocarpus laevigatus), and air plant (Bryophyllum pinnatum).

Rubus argutus
Rubus argutus is a North American species of prickly bramble in the rose family. It is a perennial plant native to the eastern and south-central United States. Common names are sawtooth blackberry or tall blackberry after its high growth.
Fraser Canyon War
The Fraser Canyon War, also known as the Canyon War or the Fraser River War, was an incident in 1858 between white miners and the indigenous Nlaka'pamux people in the newly declared Colony of British Columbia, which later became part of Canada. It occurred during the Fraser Canyon Gold Rush, which brought many white settlers to the Fraser Canyon area. Largely ignored by Canadian historians, it was one of the seminal events of the founding of the colony. Although it ended relatively peacefully, it was a major test of the new administration's control over the goldfields, which were distant and difficult to access from the centre of colonial authority at Victoria in the Colony of Vancouver Island (New Westminster had recently been surveyed as the de jure capital, but the de facto capital was in Victoria, where the Governor was located).

Gold mining
Gold mining is the extraction of gold by mining.

Historically, gold mining from alluvial deposits used manual separation processes, such as gold panning. The expansion of gold mining to ores that are below the surface has led to more complex extraction processes such as pit mining and gold cyanidation. In the 20th and 21st centuries, large corporations produce the vast majority of the gold mined. However, as a result of the increasing value of gold, there are also millions of small, artisanal miners in many parts of the Global South.

As with all mining, human rights and environmental issues are important issues in the gold mining industry, and can result in environmental conflict. In mines with less regulation, health and safety risks are much higher.

Murder of Chiara Poggi
On 13 August 2007, 26-year-old Chiara Poggi was murdered in Garlasco, Pavia, Italy. The crime had extensive media coverage in Italy, with a succession of news reports, television programmes and interviews dedicated to the case.

On 12 December 2015, the Supreme Court of Cassation definitively recognized the victim's boyfriend Alberto Stasi, then an economics student, as the only person guilty of the crime. Stasi was sentenced to 16 years of imprisonment, and his repeated requests for a review of the trial have been rejected. In January 2023, he entered a work release program. He continues to maintain his innocence.

In March 2025, the case was reopened by investigators after forensic analysis of previously untested DNA evidence.
They found that the DNA found on/in the fingernails had the patrilineal sequence of another man, not that of the convicted Stasi Alberto. New investigations have Andrea Sempio under investigation for conspiracy with Stasi Alberto or unknown persons.

Originally Hebrew: תלמיד חכמים Talmid Chakhamim, lit., "student of sages", pl. תלמידי חכמים talmidei chakhamim, "students of sages"; inaccurate reconstruction of the singular, which is invariably shortened to ת"ח in printings, led to modern Hebrew: תלמיד חכם talmid chakham "sage student". The feminine equivalent is Talmidat Chakhamim, "student of sages" (pl. Talmidot Chakhamim), or, by extension of the same error, Talmidah Chakhamah, "sage student" (pl. Talmidot Chakhamot).

Sieve estimator
In statistics, sieve estimators are a class of non-parametric estimators which use progressively more complex models to estimate an unknown high-dimensional function as more data becomes available, with the aim of asymptotically reducing error towards zero as the amount of data increases. This method is generally attributed to Ulf Grenander.

Nonparametric statistics
Nonparametric statistics is a type of statistical analysis that makes minimal assumptions about the underlying distribution of the data being studied. Often these models are infinite-dimensional, rather than finite dimensional, as in parametric statistics. Nonparametric statistics can be used for descriptive statistics or statistical inference. Nonparametric tests are often used when the assumptions of parametric tests are evidently violated.
