Set in the Old Kingdom of Egypt, it was commissioned by Cairo's Khedivial Opera House and had its première there on 24 December 1871, in a performance conducted by Giovanni Bottesini. Today the work holds a central place in the operatic canon, receiving performances every year around the world. At New York's Metropolitan Opera alone, Aida has been sung more than 1,100 times since 1886. Ghislanzoni's scheme follows a scenario often attributed to the French Egyptologist Auguste Mariette, but Verdi biographer Mary Jane Phillips-Matz argues that the source is actually Temistocle Solera.

William Macdonald (jockey)
William "Mac" Macdonald (1800–1856) was a British jockey who most notably won the 1840 Derby on Little Wonder, a horse that was almost certainly four years old and therefore ineligible for the race.

During the race, the favourite, Launcelot, ridden by Bill Scott, got to the front close to home. As Little Wonder made his challenge, Scott, who had backed Launcelot to win a large sum, called across to Macdonald, "a thousand pounds for you if you stop him!" Macdonald didn't, replying, "too late, Mr Scott, too late." It was to be his only Derby victory and for winning he was presented with a whip by Prince Albert.

He was born in Shoreditch and rode for trainer Samuel Pearce. He married, and later became a trainer himself at Epsom. He also rode in trotting races.

HD 103774
HD 103774 is a star with a close orbiting planetary companion in the southern constellation of Corvus. With an apparent visual magnitude of 7.13, it is too faint to be readily visible to the naked eye. Parallax measurements provide a distance estimate of 184 light years from the Sun. It is drifting closer with a radial velocity of −3 km/s. The star has an absolute magnitude of 3.41.

The stellar classification of HD 103774 is F6 V, indicating this is an F-type main-sequence star that is generating energy through core hydrogen fusion. It is a young star with age estimates ranging from 260 million up to 2 billion years of age. The star is mildly active and is spinning with a projected rotational velocity of 8 km/s. It has 1.4 times the mass and 1.56 times the radius of the Sun. The star is radiating 3.7 times the luminosity of the Sun from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 6,391 K.

Stellar core
A stellar core is the extremely hot, dense region at the center of a star. For an ordinary main sequence star, the core region is the volume where the temperature and pressure conditions allow for energy production through thermonuclear fusion of hydrogen into helium. This energy in turn counterbalances the mass of the star pressing inward; a process that self-maintains the conditions in thermal and hydrostatic equilibrium. The minimum temperature required for stellar hydrogen fusion exceeds 107 K (10 MK), while the density at the core of the Sun is over 100 g/cm3. The core is surrounded by the stellar envelope, which transports energy from the core to the stellar atmosphere where it is radiated away into space.
Bergama carpet
Bergama Carpet refers to handwoven Turkish carpets, made in the Bergama district in the İzmir Province of northwest Turkey. As a market place for the surrounding villages, the name of Bergama is used as a trade name to define the provenience.

Geographically, the Bergama district includes the regions of Kozak, Yuntağ, Yağcibedir, and Akhizar. Of these, the regions of Yuntağ and Yağcibedir weave carpets which are iconographically different from the Bergama Type.

The Bergama district includes around 70-80 villages, in many of whom carpets are woven. The history of carpet weaving in Bergama probably dates back to the 11th century. Bergama carpets still exist which date from the early 15th century, and are on display in, amongst other museums, the Türk ve Islam Eserleri Müzesi, Istanbul, the Pergamon Museum, Berlin, and the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York.

Warp and weft
In the manufacture of cloth, warp and weft are the two basic components in weaving to transform thread and yarn into textile fabrics. The vertical warp yarns are held stationary in tension on a loom (frame) while the horizontal weft (also called the woof) is drawn through (inserted over and under) the warp thread. In the terminology of weaving, each warp thread is called a warp end; a pick is a single weft thread that crosses the warp thread (synonymous terms are fill yarn and filling yarn).

In the 18th century, the Industrial Revolution facilitated the industrialisation of the production of textile fabrics with the picking stick and the flying shuttle, the latter of which was invented by John Kay, in 1733. The mechanised power loom was patented by Edmund Cartwright in 1785, which allowed sixty picks per minute.

Bass Highway (Tasmania)
The Bass Highway is a highway in Tasmania, Australia. It connects the three cities across the north of the state – Burnie, Devonport and Launceston.

2020 Washington Insurance Commissioner election
The 2020 Washington Insurance Commissioner election was held on November 3, 2020, to elect the insurance commissioner of Washington, concurrently with the 2020 U.S. presidential election, as well as elections to the U.S. Senate and various state and local elections, including for U.S. House and governor of Washington. Incumbent Democratic Insurance Commissioner Mike Kreidler was re-elected to a sixth term by a significant margin.

Washington State Office of the Insurance Commissioner
The Washington State Office of the Insurance Commissioner was created in 1889–90, and became a separate agency in 1907 with an elected commissioner. The current commissioner is Patty Kuderer, a Democrat first elected in 2024 and assumed office in 2025.

In 2014, a bill was introduced to replace the elected commissioner with a 10-person board which would hire the commissioner. It was passed in both houses but vetoed by Governor Jay Inslee.

In 2015, the office denied applications by a number of association health plans, resulting in a legal dispute with those affected.
