Ariyaka script
The Ariyaka script () is an obsolete alphabet, invented by King Mongkut as an alternative to transcribing Pali, the liturgical language of Theravada Buddhism. The script, inspired by the Greek and Burmese-Mon scripts, did not come into popular use and eventually fell out of usage. History During religious reforms in mid-nineteenth century Rattanakosin Kingdom, King Mongkut discouraged use of the Khom Thai script, which is derived from Khmer, in religious works for reason that its exclusivity gave wrong impression that Khmer script was holy and magical, ordering the monks to switch to the Thai script in recording Buddhist canon. In the 1840s, Mongkut invented the Ariyaka script to promote printing of Tripiṭaka, instead of traditionally inscribing on palm leaf manuscripts. The script was adapted from both the Greek and Burmese-Mon scripts, and was intended to supplant other existing scripts for transcribing Pali, including Khom Thai and Tai Tham.

Filipp Sidorsky
Filipp Filippovich Sidorsky (; 21 August 1937 – 27 February 2023) was a Soviet and Russian diplomat. He served in various diplomatic roles from 1966 onwards, and was Ambassador of Russia to Uzbekistan between 1992 and 1997, and to Bosnia and Herzegovina from 1998 to 2000. Career Sidorsky was born on 21 August 1937, in Moscow, then part of the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic, in the Soviet Union. He initially began working as a projectionist in 1954, and later as an electrician, and a tunneller at Metrostroy. He began his career in the Soviet Foreign Ministry in 1966, graduating from Moscow State Institute of International Relations that year, and entering the diplomatic service. Sidorsky worked in various diplomatic positions in the Soviet, and later Russian, foreign ministry, and its diplomatic missions abroad. He graduated from the Diplomatic Academy of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in 1978, and worked in the Soviet embassy in Iran, and from 1988 to 1992, was Minister-Counselor of the embassy in Afghanistan. On 18 March 1992, he was appointed the first ambassador of the Russian Federation to Uzbekistan, following the dissolution of the Soviet Union. His appointment was concurrent with one to serve as head of delegation to the negotiation with the Republic of Uzbekistan "on issues of bilateral relations, representing mutual interest in political, military, economic, social and humanitarian areas." Diplomatic relations between the Russian Federation and the Republic of Uzbekistan were officially established on 20 March 1992. The Treaty on the Fundamentals of Interstate Relations, Friendship and Cooperation was signed several months later, on 30 May 1992. The Tajikistani Civil War began shortly after Sidorsky's arrival in post, with the suggestion that Russian military forces were taking sides within the country. Sidorsky worked to deny that Russian forces would destabilise Uzbekistan, noting that "the former Soviet military units in Uzbekistan were under the control of the Uzbek government". He was awarded the Order of Friendship on 21 June 1996. Sidorsky left the post on 25 April 1997, becoming an ambassador-at-large. On 26 January 1998, he was appointed ambassador to Bosnia and Herzegovina, until his recall on 25 December 2000. He retired in 2001. In addition to his native Russian, Sidorsky spoke English, Persian, and Pashto. He was married, with a son. Sidorsky died on 27 February 2023, at the age of 85. Over his career he had received several awards and honours, including the Order of Friendship, the Order of Friendship of Peoples, and the Order of the Badge of Honour. Sidorsky's obituary by the Russian Foreign Ministry noted that he was "a highly professional diplomat and a wonderful person, a responsible and energetic leader, [and] a versatile specialist."

Mount Bell (Alberta)
Mount Bell is a summit in Alberta, Canada. Description Mount Bell is set within Banff National Park, in the Bow Range of the Canadian Rockies. The hamlet of Lake Louise is situated to the north and the Continental Divide is to the west. The nearest higher neighbor is Bident Mountain, to the west. Bident Mountain forms the west buttress of Consolation Pass with Mount Bell forming the east buttress. These two peaks rise above the head of Consolation Valley. Precipitation runoff from Mount Bell drains into tributaries of the Bow River. Topographic relief is significant as the north aspect rises over 830 meters (2,723 ft) above Taylor Lake in one kilometer (0.6 mile) and the south aspect rises 1,000 meters (3,281 ft) above Boom Lake in two kilometers (1.2 mile). The peak is visible from the Icefields Parkway to the east. History Originally called Mount Bellevue, the name was changed to honor Dr. Frederick Bell (1883–1971), a founding member of the Alpine Club of Canada and club president from 1926 through 1928. The mountain's toponym was officially adopted on April 3, 1952, by the Geographical Names Board of Canada. The first ascent of the summit was made in 1910 by an Alpine Club of Canada party including Nora Bell, sister of Frederick Bell. Geology Like other mountains in Banff Park, Mount Bell is composed of sedimentary rock laid down during the Precambrian to Jurassic periods. Formed in shallow seas, this sedimentary rock was pushed east and over the top of younger rock during the Laramide orogeny. Climate Based on the Köppen climate classification, Mount Bell is located in a subarctic climate zone with cold, snowy winters, and mild summers. Winter temperatures can drop below -20 °C with wind chill factors below -30 °C.

Battle of Island Flats
The Battle of Island Flats (also Battle at Long Island of the Holston, Battle of Eaton's Station) was the opening battle of the American War of Independence in the west. The battle was fought July 20, 1776, and pitted the American regional Patriot militia against the British allied Cherokee forces in the Overmountain region of the American frontier. Battle Warned ahead of the assault by messengers from Cherokee diplomat Nancy Ward, the areas' militia members, fresh from battle experience in Dunmore's War, as well as a small garrison of soldiers stationed in the area, were mustered to Heaton's Station, situated on the ridge just east of the island. Under Majors James Thompson and William Cocke, they readied and waited for the arrival of the war party that was following Cherokee War Chiefs, Dragging Canoe (Tsiyu Gansini) and The Raven (Savanukah). The group rapidly fortified the simple way-station and constructed a stockade fence of logs and rails around it. The opposing forces comprised less than 200 men each: about 170 for the frontiersmen, and approximately 190 for the Native Americans. Because of the lack of a surprise attack, the Cherokees were quickly routed, and they withdrew after suffering 14 fatalities (nearly one-twelfth of their entire force) and several lesser casualties—including a badly wounded Dragging Canoe.

Bhagavad Gita - Song of God
Bhagavad Gita - The Song of God is the title of the Swami Prabhavananda Christopher Isherwood's translation of the Bhagavad Gītā (Sanskrit: , "Song of God"), an important Hindu scripture. It was first published in 1944 with an Introduction by Aldous Huxley. This translation is unusual in that it is a collaboration between a world-renowned English language author and an adept in Vedanta Philosophy and Hindu scripture. With this translation, "...the very purpose of life in Hindu terms becomes luminously clear.”. The 2023 edition includes the standardized verse markings that were left out from the original, published in 1944. Aldous Huxley wrote the introduction and gave advice during the translation process, “Forget that Krishna is speaking to the Hindus in Sanskrit. Forget that this is a translation. Think that Krishna is speaking to an American audience in English.” "Christopher Isherwood could not read Sanskrit; he relied on detailed and intense discussions with Swami Prabhavananda to understand the meaning of each word. Then he cast the ancient Hindu text in a mixture of poetry and prose rooted in the English literary tradition reaching back to Medieval times." Despite the translation's merits, it has been criticized for not including the standard verse numbers, making it difficult to compare to other translations and some critics take issue with the translation of particular verses. However, "To preserve the everlasting simplicity of the Gita’s words… Isherwood…and his teacher [Swami Prabhavananda] have collaborated on this latest translation… the result is a distinguished literary work… simpler and freer than other English translations… It may help U.S. readers to understand not only the Gita itself, but also its influence on American letters through one of its greatest U.S. admirers, Ralph Waldo Emerson." The translation was well received in the US and earned reviews in the New York Times, Time Magazine, and was adopted as a text book in many colleges and universities, for comparative religion studies. Origin of Translation Swami Vivekananda, the founder of the Ramakrishna Order in India, brought Vedanta to the West beginning with his appearance at the 1893 Chicago Parliament of Religions and establishing the first Vedanta Societies in the West. From his early days in the US, a priority was placed on translating the great scriptures of India into English. Vivekananda wrote: No foreigner will ever write the English language as well as the native Englishman, and the ideas, when put in good English, will spread farther than in Hindu English. - Swami Vivekananda Swami Prabhavananda, a monk of the Ramakrishna Order and founder and head of the Vedanta Society of Southern California, first came to the US in 1923, assigned to the Vedanta Society of San Francisco. In 1930, he founded the Vedanta Society of Southern California, and within the decade he had attracted many notable literary disciples, including English authors, Gerald Heard, Aldous Huxley, and Christopher Isherwood. While the Swami was on vacation in Palm Springs, he was reading an English translation of the Gita and felt the meaning was lost. After consulting with his literary disciples, he decided to take on the effort to produce a new translation. Preface to [the 2023] Edition In the preface to the new edition, a more detailed description of the origin of the Translation is given. It also explains why this translation does not have the traditional commentary, that is usually given after each verse. Two foundational Swamis of the Ramakrishna Order had this advice: Swami Brahmananda, Prabhavananda's guru, said, “Let your first reading of the Gita be without commentary.” And Swami Saradananda says in his book The Essence of the Gita, “It is not necessary for you to study all those commentaries… It is enough to understandthe meaning as it reveals itself to you spontaneously.” Prabhavananda and Isherwood felt it was more important to incorporate the commentaries into the text itself, rather than have the story of the Gita interrupped by explanation. They also decided not to include the verse numbers. The point is made that the "...sole purpose of this edition is to include those standardized chapter and verse markings to facilitate comparisons to other translations. Otherwise, this edition is faithful to the Prabhavananda-Isherwood Gita." Translators’ Preface Prabhavananda and Isherwood explain how the Gita is actually just a small part of the epic poem, the Mahabharata (chapters 23–40 of book 6). It's also explained why the original is in all verse, but they decided to be more flexible with the writing, "...we have translated the Gita in a variety of styles, partly prose, partly verse. There is, of course, no justification for this experiment in the text itself. The transitions from one style to another are quite arbitrary. They can be judged from one standpoint only: have we made the book more readable?" The translators also explain why they were more free with their translation, compared to others, "Extremely literal translations of the Gita already exist. We have aimed, rather, at an interpretation. Here is one of the greatest religious documents of the world: let us not approach it too pedantically as an archaic text which must be jealously preserved by university professors. It has something to say, urgently, to every one of us. Introduction by Aldous Huxley In Huxley's introduction, he takes a sweeping view of the Perennial Philosophy and touches on the history of the concept that there is an underlying reality that all the traditional religions acknowledge - the Godhead, Clear LIght of the Void, Brahman, etc. He also give us his Minimum Working Hypothisis, instruction for how to seek the highest reality. Gita and Mahabharata The translators give an in-depth analysis of the events leading up to the plot of the Gita. As the name suggest it is the story of the great (Maha) King Bharata. All of India is drawn into a war, which is used as a metaphor for the battle that we face inside ourselves. The battle of good vs. evil. The principle actors in the poem at Sri Krishna, and incarnation of God, and Arjuna, a "high-souled prince" who falters on the battlefield after seeing friends and family on the other side - who he is called to kill. Arjuna drops his weapons and declare he will not fight. The rest of the book has Krishna, Arjuna's friend and advisor, explaining the meaning of life and describing a life of right-conduct, through the various Yogas (paths). Chapters There are total 18 chapters and 700 verses in Geeta. These are: The Cosmology of the Gita After the 18 Chapters of the Gita itself, there is an Appendix where the translators explain how the Gita fits into the overall philosophy of Hindu religious literature. They also give a summary of Hindu cosmology and descriptions of the various deities in Hindu culture. The Gita and War Christopher Isherwood was a pacifist and conscientiousness Objector]] in WWII, having his father killed in WWI and seeing no effort by the allies to avoid head-long into the next war. In England he was a member of the Peace Pledge Union, and during the war while in the US, he did alternative service with the Quakers. In this section Isherwood explains that the Gita is neither pro- or anti- war. In certain circumstances, it would be quite alright to refuse to fight. In Arjuna's position, it's a righteous war, and he's a warrior - he must fight. In the purely physical sphere of action, Arjuna is, indeed, no longer a free agent. The act of war is upon him; it has evolved out of his previous actions. At any given moment in time, we are what we are; and we have to accept the consequences of being ourselves. Only through this acceptance can we begin to evolve further. We may select the battleground. We cannot avoid the battle. Editions First published by The Marcel Rodd Co. Hollywood, CA, 1944 Mentor Religious Classics, Harper & Row, NY, 1951 Published in England by Phoenix House Ltd. Vedanta Press, Hollywood, CA 1944–2023 Reviews of this Translation "The eternal message of the Gita has been rendered into simple language which is devoid of technicalities of dogma and doctrine and rises into suitable poetry where the sublimity of thought requires it. Swami Prabhavananda’s name is a guarantee of the authoritative nature of the translation and its being faithful to the true spirit of the original." - Prabuddha Bharata, March, 1946 "DEMOCRACY would have been impossible without the dissemination of knowledge...For that reason alone this paper-back edition [1954] of one of the most profound books ever written, often compared to the Sermon on the Mount, is a publishing event of major importance. Here the common man...may make the acquaintance of perhaps the greatest clarity that mysticism has ever achieved...The ideas in this philosophical dialogue...are subtle, surprising, precise. The “Gita," however, is also a song. It develops its ideas rhapsodically, ecstatically...The “Gita” is one of the most beautiful books. It explains and it delights...It is presented in one of the outstanding translations of the day." - Gerald Sykes, The New York Times, March 28, 1954 "To preserve the everlasting simplicity of the Gita’s words…Isherwood…and his teacher [Swami Prabhavananda] have collaborated on this latest translation…the result is a distinguished literary work…simpler and freer than other English translations…It may help U.S. readers to understand not only the Gita itself, but also its influence on American letters through one of its greatest U.S. admirers, Ralph Waldo Emerson." - Time Magazine, February 12, 1945 "For many Westerners, their introduction to Hinduism came not from yoga or a respected guru, but from a boyish British author, Christopher Isherwood, a Renaissance man of letters, writing plays, short stories, screenplays, poems, novels and nonfiction. Though he is perhaps best known as the author of such works as The Berlin Stories (later made into the hit play and movie, “Cabaret”), his involvement in the Vedanta movement in California from the 1940s through the 1980s left a permanent imprint on the cultural landscape...The English version of the Song of God: Bhagavad Gita was Isherwood's crowning achievement." - Mark Hawthorne, Vedanta’s Western Poet, Hinduism Today, September 1, 1999 [From a critique concerning translations] "A translation of literary worth...seemed preferable to a simon-pure translation...As a master translator, Edward Fitzgerald, put it: “Better a live sparrow than a stuffed eagle.” ...In violation of this principle, Mr. Y. has decided to use the Edwin Arnold translation of the Bhagavad Gita rather than—say—the Christopher Isherwood-Swami Prabhavananda version. In my opinion...there is no comparison between the ponderous cadences of the first, and the clean lucidity of the second." - The New York Times, November 11, 1956 "The translation, in poetry and prose, is the celebrated one by Christopher Isherwood and Swami Prabhavananda…the very purpose of life in Hindu terms becomes luminously clear." - Paul Kresh, The New York Times, May 10, 1981 Reviews of the 2023 Edition "Translations come in many hues and fulfill different needs. Bhagavad Gita: The Song of God, the translation by Swami Prabhavananda and Christopher Isherwood, cuts to the chase by focusing on the essential teaching in every verse—and does this in both poetry and prose that is as elegant as it is insightful. The book effortlessly captures the beauty and the rhythm of the Gita." - Swami Tyagananda, Hindu Chaplain, Harvard and MIT, 2022 "The ageless wisdom of the Gita will never be brought into classic English prose with greater clarity, humanity and selflessness than in this priceless rendition. What a joy to have it brought to us afresh in this new edition, Isherwood’s rare elegance married to his beloved teacher’s wise command of the scriptures." Pico Iyer, Author of Video Night in Kathmandu, The Lady and the Monk, and The Global Soul. Contributor to Time, Harper's, New York Review of Books, and The New York Times. He also taught at Harvard and Princeton, 2022 "As World War II raged and the dissolution of the British Empire drew near, an Indian and an Englishman, both disillusioned radicals, collaborated in Hollywood on this singular translation. In Vedanta, they had found the peace and freedom that politics had failed to deliver. Christopher Isherwood could not read Sanskrit; he relied on detailed and intense discussions with Swami Prabhavananda to understand the meaning of each word. Then he cast the ancient Hindu text in a mixture of poetry and prose rooted in the English literary tradition reaching back to Medieval times. For clarity, economy and sheer excitement, their English rendering of the Bhagavad Gita has never been equaled." - Katherine Bucknell, editor of Christopher Isherwood's DIARIES and Director of The Christopher Isherwood Foundation, 2023 "Back in the late 1960s when many young Americans were interested in self-actualization via Asian religions, I (and thousands of others, I'm sure) were first drawn to study Vedanta after reading the Bhagavad-Gita as translated by Swami Prabhavananda and Christopher Isherwood. The former deeply understood the message of the text and the latter knew how to convey that message in masterful English. The mixture was captivating, leading many to start on a life-long quest to dig deeper into the substance of Vedanta. This is a literary rather than a literal translation, for reasons mainly related to the flow of the text and making the message clear in English, to an English speaking audience; I find the true teachings to be fully intact, so the appeal is there for a new audience in modern times. Moreover, this new edition includes the verse references that were missing from the original 1944 edition, a welcome and necessary addition, for comparison to other translations and scholarly study." - Dana Sawyer, Professor of Philosophy Emeritus, Maine Arts College, Author of Huston Smith: Wisdomkeeper, the authorized biography, and author of Aldous Huxley: A Biography, 2023 "The Bhagavad Gita–or simply the Gita, for those who know and love it well–is of course a classic of Indian literature, and of world spiritual literature, as well as being a sacred text for Hindus. This particular translation of the Gita, by Swami Prabhavananda and Christopher Isherwood, is itself a classic in the genre of Gita translations. It has been, for many, a gateway to Hindu thought and to the profound philosophy of Vedanta. Beautifully and clearly written, it was designed specifically with an American audience in mind. But it has proven to be an accessible introduction to this text for readers around the world, even within India itself. This latest edition does not alter the work of Swami Prabhavananda and Christopher Isherwood at all; but by providing the original verse numbers of the source text, it makes this translation of even greater value for students and scholars than it already was. It is a most welcome addition to any library, personal or public, and it will no doubt continue to open minds to the message of the Gita well into the twenty-first century and beyond." - Jeffery D.

Hand and brain
Hand and brain is a variant of chess. It is a multiplayer variant featuring team play with teams featuring one "hand" and one "brain" player. Standard formats of chess already include hand-brain coordination, with top players exemplifying high levels of such. Rules The "hand and brain" multiplayer variant features pairs facing off; in each pair, one player is designated "hand" and the other "brain". The game features limited communication, with the "brain" player only able to call which piece to move. Aside from this, no other communication is permitted as the "hand" player then chooses which square to move the piece. Time controls can also be implemented for the variant. History and presence in online streaming Alexandra Kosteniuk blogged about the variant being played during the 2013 Reykjavík Chess Open. In 2016, English grandmaster Matthew Sadler wrote about playing the variant with Natasha Regan during a 4NCL weekend. Due to the multiplayer nature of the variant, it is often played by chess players on stream. The variant is also common in matches featuring celebrities or figures popular outside of the chess world. Chess.com and PokerStars organized a joint event in 2019 featuring professional poker players playing the chess variant. Chess.com also organized hand and brain matches during their first ChessKid Games tournament in 2019. In the 2020s, the variant gained traction and its play in tournaments increased in coverage. In April 2020, Chess.com organized a Hand and Brain match on Twitch under the theme "Zoomers Play Chess", highlighting top Generation Z chess players. Popular Twitch streamer Ludwig and grandmaster Robert Hess were the winning team of the variant at the 2021 Twitch Rivals event. As part of the 2022 FTX Crypto Cup's opening ceremony, Levon Aronian and FTX Vice President Avinash Dabir played against Magnus Carlsen and KidSuper founder Colm Dillane in a hand and brain match, with the former pair winning.

Marianne Willmann
Marianne Willmann (née Anna Maria Antonetta de Tribolet; 17 February 1768 – 21 April 1813) was a German operatic soprano. She was one of a family of musicians. Life Marianne was born in Paderborn in 1768, the daughter of a professor of French at the University of Bonn. She did not belong to the Court music of Bonn, but sang in the opera, her first recorded appearance being in November 1790. She married in 1793 Ignaz Willmann (1739–1815), a musician, who played flute, violin and cello. She was his second wife, becoming stepmother to Maximilian, Walburga and Magdalena Willmann. Their daughter Caroline, an opera singer, was born in 1796. Marianne accompanied Ignaz and Magdalena to Venice in 1793; she sang in Graz the next year, and in 1795 made her first appearance in Vienna, in Ignaz Umlauf's Die Schöne Schusterin, and "greatly pleased". In Hamburg (20 September to 4 October 1801) she sang to crowded houses, departing from the city, wrote the correspondent of the Allgemeine musikalische Zeitung, "delighted with her extraordinary reception and emoluments." In 1803 she sang at the Theater an der Wien in Vienna, and in July 1804 in Munich. She was next engaged for the Opera in Kassel. Upon the organisation of Jérôme Bonaparte's French Theatre there, she retired for a time, and sang only in concerts, including a concert for Ferdinand Ries in January 1811. In October and November of that year she was again in Munich, where she was a favourite, and returned to Munich in March 1812 to take part in a concert. Marianne died in 1813 in Klosterneuburg. The correspondent of a Leipzig journal summed up her qualities thus: "A splendid execution, an imposing voice, practised skill and science in singing, distinguish her most favourably above many celebrities."

Conde de Belvedere
Ramón Patiño, Count of Belvedere (in Spanish, conde de Belveder) was a Spanish military commander during the Peninsular War. Charles Oman (Oman, 1902) referred to Belvedere as "... a rash and headstrong young aristocrat with no military experience whatever. His family influence had made him a general at an age when he might reasonably have expected to lead a company, and he found himself by chance the interim commander of an army: hence came the astonishing series of blunders that led to the combat of Gamonal". Peninsular War On 10 November 1808, with 8,600 bayonets, 1,100 sabres, and sixteen guns of the 1st and 2nd Divisions and the garrison at Burgos under his orders, as interim commander of the Army of Extremadura, Belvedere was heavily defeated by Soult's far superior forces at Gamonal, on the outskirts of Burgos. Marching from Madrid, Belvedere had arrived at Burgos on 7 November, to strengthen its garrison of 1,600 men, and four guns, and the following day they were joined by the 2nd Division of the same army, with about 3,000 infantry and two regiments of hussars. Belvedere took the command as the senior general present. At Gamonal, he lined up his troops against a far larger number of French units whose seven regiments of cavalry delivered a devastating charge at the Spanish infantry in the plain and the regiment of Spanish hussars covering their flank was "swept away like chaff before the wind" and the attack was over before the Spaniards could form squares or even unlimber some of their cannon. Although Belvedere himself made two attempts to rally his troops, one at the bridge, and the other outside the city itself, he was unable to stop them fleeing. According to Oman (Oman, 1902), if Belvedere had attempted an initial stand at Burgos, he would have been able to take advantage of that city's ancient fortifications, as well as the broken ground around it: "But with the most cheerful disregard of common military precautions, the Count marched out of Burgos, advanced a few miles, and drew up his army across the high-road in front of the village of Gamonal. He was in an open plain, his right flank ill covered by the river Arlanzón, which was fordable in many places, his left completely 'in the air', near the village of Vellimar". Following the rout at Gamonal, Belvedere retreated to Lerma, and from there to Aranda de Duero before finally reaching Segovia, where the Junta Central relieved him of his command, appointing José Heredia y Velarde to take his place. In November 1809, Belvedere was back in command of the 2nd Division, which formed the reserve of the Duque del Parque's Army of Castile, and in 1812, he commanded the 2nd Division of the 6th Army.

Havelock F.C.
Havelock Football Club was a 19th-century Scottish association football club based in Govan, now in Glasgow. History The club was founded in 1873 and had 30 members in its first season, winning 5 of its 12 matches. Havelock was formed from a cricket club which seems to have been founded in the same year and which played at the same ground. Havelock's first recorded matches were a pair of fixtures with the short-lived Ibrox club, which also used Middleton Park. The Havelock was not a successful club. It entered the Scottish Cup every season from 1875–76 to 1879–80 and only won one tie. It was unlucky in its first entry to draw the 3rd Lanarkshire Rifle Volunteers in the first round, who went on to reach the final, and Havelock only went down 2–0, despite being under near constant pressure, the second goal coming at the end of the match. Havelock did gain an unexpected 1–0 win against the Thirds in a friendly in March 1877, which brought out a large crowd to Kinning Park the following week for a friendly with Rangers F.C.; normal service was resumed as the home side won 8–0, the Havelock being "rather deficient in passing". The club's sole win in the Scottish Cup came a few months later, 6–0 against Craig Park F.C., although the match went unreported, suggesting the club secretary had not sent a report in to the newspapers. In the second round, South Western F.C. beat Havelock 2–0 in a "very fast" replay. Havelock's final entry in 1879–80 saw the club gain a walkover in the first round, as the 4th Renfrewshire Rifle Volunteers F.C. scratched. In the second round, the club was drawn to play at Partick again, and turned up to the tie with only ten men; although the eleventh player turned up during the first half, Havelock was 3–1 down at half-time, and there was no further scoring in the match. There is also no further record of the club. Colours The club's colours were black and white 2-inch "stripes", which in the context of the time referred to hoops. Ground The club played at West Middleton Park in Glasgow, half-a-mile from to Paisley Road Toll.

She studied English Litereature and her husband was an economics student named Israel Moses Sieff. During the First World War, Sieff was active in charitable organizations that collected donations for the Jewish population of Poland (Charity Fund for Polish Jewry). In 1918 she was elected to the Council of the English Zionist Federation, being one of only three women elected to that body directly, and not as representatives of subordinate groups. In the same year she took part in founding the Federation of Women Zionists (FWZ). She and her husband both separately visited Palestine in preparation fulfilling the Balfour Declaration. Sieff was there with Vera Weizmann and Edith Eder and they were surprised by the poor living conditions and she decided that they needed a women's organisation and a college of domestic economy in Jerusalem. Weizman was a doctor and she believed that the women were working too equally as they did not have the strength of men. Sieff had been brought up to expect men to take the lead but she believed that women could better support the family by improving their traditional roles. She was involved in the formation of the Women's International Zionist Organization (WIZO), In 1919 she and Vera Weizmann, Olga Alman, and Romana Goodman persuaded the English Zionist Federation that a separate organisation for women was required. Sieff was the first President of the new organisation. In 1921 she was in Carlsbad as a part of the British delegation to the WIZO conference. In 1949 the Women's International Zionist Organization moved its location to Israel and Sieff became its new president. In 1956 her home was bombed and her gardener was killed. Sieff died in Tel Aviv in 1966 just after her husband was made a life peer. Marriage and family In 1910, she married Israel Sieff (later Baron Sieff). They had three sons and a daughter: Hon. Michael David Sieff (1911–1987) Marcus Sieff, Baron Sieff of Brimpton (1913–2001) Daniel Sieff (1915–1932) Judith Hannah Sieff (1921–1999) The tragic death of their son Daniel, who intended to be a scientist, at age 17 led Sieff — and with the financial support of his business partners and relatives by marriage, the Marks and Sacher families — to endow the 1934 creation, by Chaim Weizmann, of the Daniel Sieff Research Institute in Rehovot in present-day Israel. Renamed the Weizmann Institute of Science in 1949 with the Sieff family's consent, it became Israel's premier research university in the natural sciences.

2022–23 III liga
The 2022–23 III liga was the 15th season of the fourth tier domestic division in the Polish football league system since its establishment in 2008 under its current title (III liga) and the 6th season under its current league division format. The league was operated by the Polish Football Association (PZPN). The competition was contested by 72 clubs split geographically across 4 groups of 18 teams, with the winners of each group gaining promotion to the II liga. The season was played in a round-robin tournament. It began in August 2022 and ended in June 2023. The teams included semi-professional clubs (although a few are professional) and the reserve teams of professional clubs. Format 73 teams are divided into four groups according to geographical criteria: Group I (Łódź – Masovian – Podlaskie – Warmian-Masurian) Group II (Kuyavian-Pomeranian – Greater Poland – Pomeranian – West Pomeranian) Group III (Lower Silesian – Lubusz – Opole – Silesian) Group IV (Świętokrzyskie – Lesser Poland – Lublin – Podkarpackie) Since 2021–22 season each group of III liga is operated by Polish Football Association (PZPN), not a different voivodship football association.

Clausewitz Network for Strategic Studies
Clausewitz Network for Strategic Studies (CNSS) is a German think tank on strategy issues. The aim of the institution is to provide strategy training for those in positions of responsibility. The CNSS is based at the Bundeswehr Command and Staff College (German: Führungsakademie der Bundeswehr, FüAkBw) in Hamburg, from where it promotes interdepartmental exchange between civilian and military figures. History The CNSS was founded by participants of the National General/Admiral Staff Officer Course (NGASOC) in 2009, with Lennart Souchon as founding director. As head of the Security Policy and Strategy Department at the Bundeswehr Command and Staff College, Souchon had initially founded the International Clausewitz Center in 1999 as an international meeting place for the discussion of strategic issues at FüAkBw. From the International Clausewitz Center, the CNSS initially emerged in the form of a loose network between FüAkBw and the University of Potsdam. In 2013, the Clausewitz Network for Strategic Studies was registered as a registered association in its current form. Activities The network provides strategy education, cultivates the intellectual legacy of Carl von Clausewitz, and conducts research on his theories. According to its own statements, the think tank's most important task is the exchange between civilian and military leaders. This exchange takes place during symposia, workshops, lectures, and recurring discussions called Clausewitz Gespräche. Although the geographical focus is on the Bundeswehr Command and Staff College in Hamburg, the scope of these formats explicitly extends beyond the military audience. Members of the CNSS regularly publish scholarly papers (see publications) on strategy topics for both the national and international public, and contribute to conferences such as the Vienna Strategy Conference (StratKon).

Elsa Pollak (1911 - 2006) was an Israeli sculptor and an Holocaust survivor, born in Slovakia. She is known for depicting the victims of the Holocaust in her art. Life Pollak was born in the village of Markušovce.In 1944, she was deported to Auschwitz along with her entire family and assigned the number 5170. She was the only survivor, being liberated from the labor camp of Lenzing, Austria after having partaken in the Death March from Auschwitz. After the end of the World War II, Elsa studied sculpture in Vienna along with the sculptor and painter Kurt Goebel. In 1962, she emigrated to Israel and settled in Herzliya. In 1991, she received the Sussman Prize for Artists Depicting the Holocaust awarded by the Yad Vashem. Works Pollak co-authored The Pit memorial, along with a Belarus artist Leonid Levin located at the site where Nazi forces shot about 5,000 Jewish residents of the nearby Minsk Ghetto. Her sculpture exhibition Elsa Pollak: Auschwitz 5170, named after her prisoner number in Auschwitz is one of the two permanent exhibitions displayed at the Ghetto Fighters' House in Israel. In her art, she drew from her own experience at the the Auschwitz concentration camp, in her own words: "Man created these horrors, but did not invent a language in which to describe them. The memories stayed alive and urged me on without respite. And thus I arrived at sculpture."

Menephron
In Greek and Roman mythology, Menephron () is the name of an Arcadian man notable for his tale surrounding incest. He is only referenced to briefly in the works of Roman authors Ovid and Hyginus. Mythology In Ovid's Metamorphoses, as the runaway Medea flies above Greece in the chariot her grandfather gave her, she passes over Mount Cyllene, where Menephron would incestously lie with his mother in an animal-like manner. Hyginus in Fabulae confirms that Menephron slept his mother, here named Blias/Bliade, and adds that he also slept with his daughter Cyllene as well.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three%20Kings%20Ridge
Three Kings Ridge
The Three Kings Ridge, sometimes known as Three Kings Rise and more rarely at its southern end as the Three Kings Bank is a deep sea westward facing volcanic arc of Zealandia continental crust extending from northwest of Cape Reinga / Te Rerenga Wairua, New Zealand on a line bisecting New Caledonia and Fiji in the South Pacific Ocean. Its southern portion contains the Manawatāwhi / Three Kings Islands which have biological significance as they are host to unique species and important marine ecosystems. Geology The ridge along with its northern continuation, the Loyalty Ridge that extends north of New Caledonia, is now a relatively well studied, greater than long feature of Zealandia tectonics. It is a relatively rigid portion of continental crust compared to the oceanic crust in surrounding basins about in thickness. While regarded as inactive there have been moderate sized earthquakes at the northern end of the ridge. It can be regarded as a stranded western remnant arc segment split off by intra-arc and cross-arc rifting during back-arc basin opening from the still active eastern arc segments close to the Pacific trench and slab. The long Cook Fracture Zone that is aligned with the two ridges separates it from the Loyalty Ridge and is associated with about lateral displacement at the southern end of the central Minerva-Cook spreading zone of the South Fiji basin. In the middle of the area between the two ridges is the youngest dated volcanics, being the DR22A seamount at 19.7 ± 0.5 Ma. The northern deep tip of the ridge has mudstone at water depth that is stratigraphically dated to 20.9 to 18.7 Ma. To its east is the Norfolk basin separating it from the Norfolk Ridge in the Tasman Sea. To its west is the South Fiji Basin with its former spreading sea floor of the Cook Fracture Zone. To its south a trough extends from the Norfolk basin separating it from the volcanic alignment of the Norfolk Ridge with the northern North Island. It has been postulated that the Three Kings Ridge has been subsequently separated by the now inactive Vening Meinesz Fault Zone from the Miocene volcanic arcs of Northland in the North Island, and its extension under the Tasman Sea of the Northland Plateau. However, there is a distinct age difference between the 25 million years ago dates of the southern part of the ridge eruptives and the nearest North Island volcanics. The seabed on the rise has a component from a large drowned Oligocene island of metamorphic rocks, mantle peridotite, and Gondwana derived continental rocks dating from 38 million years ago (the oldest basement is dated 37.5 Ma). These 39–36 million year old Eocene lavas are now known to be subordinate to later activity and are mainly confined to the western side of the ridge. However a 32 million year old andesitic centre has been characterised at the northeastern area of the ridge. There was a pulse of voluminous late Oligocene to early Miocene (25 to 22 million years ago) volcanic activity within the Cook Fracture Zone and the northern portions of the ridge that now dominate. The ridge surface is mainly trachybasalt and basaltic andesite, with some trachyandesite, and andesite, but no rhyolite volcanics. Its sides are basalt suggesting these are basement as they are also found in the nearly basins. Sporadic volcanic activity after this is evidenced by say samples of andesite from 20 million years ago. The ridge has been mainly below sealevel since 21 million years ago due to Australian and Pacific Plate extension but the present islands to the ridges south were still connected to each other, but not New Zealand, at the sea level minimum of 7000 years ago. Tectonic implications It has been postulated that the relatively rigid Three Kings Ridge had a role in the emplacement of the the Northland Allochthon and this may contain rocks inherited from a Three Kings arc collision. This collision as the continental crust of the ridge moved southeast about 25.5–22 million years ago would have been had to have been associated with a subduction flip in the postulated model. Islands, reefs and seamounts The ridge has to its south a group of 13 presently uninhabited islands where the South Pacific Ocean and Tasman Sea meet. These are separated from the New Zealand North Island by a wide submarine trough that is at least deep and may be associated with the Vening Meinesz Fault Zone.

On the 9 May 1760, Campbell eloped and married her cousin, Donald Campbell, without the knowledge or permission of her Father. Moving to Canada The married couple eventually made a new life in Canada with their 9 children. Campbell travelled alone first bringing with her an inheritance in the form of kegs of gold. She arrived at Port Glasgow in June 1818 where she pushed aside the men on the boat so she could be the first white woman to place a foot on Canadian sands at the port. Her husband arrived later with their children in October 1818. The family built a log cabin on a hill which was named Cnoc Neilliadh meaning Nelly's Rock in Scottish Gaelic. Nelly died on the 18th December 1851 at the age of 81 at her daughter, Mary's, home. Her body was carried by bob-sleigh to Fingal Cemetery, in Southwold Township where she was buried with other members of her family.

Germano Mathias
Germano Mathias (2 June 1934 – 22 February 2023) was a Brazilian singer-songwriter and composer, specialized in sambas. He was nicknamed the "Catedrático do Samba" ("the Samba Cathedratic"). Life and career Born in São Paulo, the son of two Portuguese immigrants, Mathias studied drums at the Rosas Negras School of Samba. He started his career as a musician in 1955, winning a 14-month contract with Radio Tupi in the radio contest for new music artists "À procura de um astro" ("Looking for a star"). Following his first hit "Minha nega na janela", in a few years he got a significant success both as a singer and as a composer, but his popularity declined with the arrival of rock and other musical genres, up to the point he temporarily left his musical activities to work as a justice officer. His career eventually had a resurgence in the late 1970s, when Gilberto Gil recorded several songs composed by him, leading to many of his previous works to be rediscovered and re-released. Mathias' last album was Tributo a Caco Velho, released in 2004. In 2021, the tribute album #PartiuZePelintra – Tributo a Germano Mathias was released, with some of his songs performed by prominent artists including Gilberto Gil, Fafá de Belém, Zélia Duncan and Leila Pinheiro. Mathias died from the consequences of a severe pneumonia on 22 February 2023, at the age of 88. At the time of his death he was preparing a new album, 67 anos de samba-tradição.

The Fundação Nacional de Artes (National Arts Foundation), Funarte is a foundation of the Brazilian government linked to the Ministry of Culture. It operates throughout the national territory and is the agency responsible for developing public policies to foster the visual arts, music, dance, theater, and circus. Overview It aims to encourage the training of artists, technicians and producers; the production, practice, development and dissemination of the arts; the development of research; the preservation of memory, and the formation of audiences for the arts in Brazil. To this end, Funarte grants scholarships and awards, maintains programs for the circulation of artists and cultural goods, promotes workshops, publishes books, recovers and creates collections, provides technical consulting, and supports cultural events in all Brazilian states as well as abroad. In addition, it maintains cultural spaces in Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo, Minas Gerais, and Distrito Federal, and makes part of its collection available for free on the Internet. History The first Funarte It was created in 1975, still during the military dictatorship, by Minister Ney Braga to promote, stimulate, and develop cultural activities throughout Brazil. In the beginning, it was active in music (popular and classical), plastic and visual arts. At the time, it worked together with the National Institute of Folklore (INF), the National Foundation of Scenic Arts (Fundacen), and the Brazilian Cinema Foundation (FCB), all linked to the Ministry of Education and Culture, later renamed to Ministry of Culture. In 1985, the foundation was chaired by cartoonist Ziraldo. Under the cartoonist's command, Funarte also acted as a syndicate (an agency for the distribution of newspaper strips and pastimes). Original Funarte and second Funarte When Fernando Collor de Mello became president in 1990, he abolished all cultural institutions. In December of that year, he created the Brazilian Institute of Art and Culture (IBAC) - directly linked to the Secretariat of Culture of the Presidency of the Republic, which became a ministry sometime later. IBAC encompassed Funarte, Fundacen, and FCB. With the closing of Funarte, a new distributor of newspaper strips, Pacatatu, emerged. In 1994, the acronym Funarte replaced the acronym IBAC.

Ranjit Jeyakodi
Ranjit Jeyakodi is an Indian film director, who has directed Tamil and Telugu language films. He rose to fame through the thriller drama Puriyatha Puthir (2017), and has gone on to make feature films including the romantic drama Ispade Rajavum Idhaya Raniyum (2019) and the bilingual action drama Michael (2023). Career Ranjit had learned filmmaking during his time studying for the Visual Communications degree at Loyola College, Chennai and later went on to become an associate of director Ram. Ranjit made his directorial debut through Puriyatha Puthir (2017), a thriller film starring Vijay Sethupathi and Gayathrie in the lead roles. The shoot of the film was completed by 2014 under the title of Mellisai, but the production house's financial troubles meant that it eventually had a delayed release three years later. His second film Ispade Rajavum Idhaya Raniyum (2019) was a romantic drama featuring Harish Kalyan and Shilpa Manjunath in the lead roles. Prior to the film, Ranjit described the film as a "dark love story". A critic noted "it’s impressive that despite being a toxic romance between a broken man and a healing woman, Ranjith’s treatment of how love occurs between them is surprisingly respectable". Ranjit subsequently worked on the bilingual action fil Michael (2023) starring Sundeep Kishan in the titular role. The film opened to mixed reviews from critics. Neeshita Nyayapati of The Times of India gave 3 out of 5 stars and wrote "Michael is a genre film that achieves what it sets out to do – tell a dark coming-of-age tale of a young man who knows what it means to be human for better or worse. Watch it if that’s your kind of cinema." Latha Srinivasan of India Today gave 2.5 out of 5 stars and wrote "Michael is a gangster flick that’s more style than story for the most part. Having said that, Sundeep Kishan, Vijay Sethupathi and Sam CS are the absolute highlights of this film." His next release will be Yaarukkum Anjael, a film starring Bindu Madhavi and Darshana Banik in the lead roles. Production on the film was completed by 2020, though Ranjit's commitments to making Michael delayed it's theatrical release.

High-Flyer (company)
High-Flyer () is a Hangzhou-based hedge fund and artificial intelligence (AI) company founded in 2015. It is one of the largest quantitative funds in China. Background High-Flyer was founded in 2015 by three engineers from Zhejiang University. They generated ideas of algorithmic trading as students during the 2007–2008 financial crisis. The company has two AMAC regulated subsidiaries, Zhejiang High-Flyer Asset Management Co.,Ltd. and Ningbo High-Flyer Quant Investment Management Partnership LLP which were established in 2015 and 2016 respectively. The two subsidiaries have over 450 investment products. In 2016 the firm experimented with a deep learning algorithmic model to take stock positions and began testing in trading the following year. In 2019, the company established High-Flyer AI which was dedicated to research on AI algorithms and its basic applications. In the same year the company set up a SFC regulated subsidiary in Hong Kong named High-Flyer Capital Management (Hong Kong) Limited. It was approved as a Qualified Foreign Institutional Investor one year later. In 2020, the company established Fire-Flyer I, a supercomputer that focuses on AI deep learning. It cost approximately 200 million Yuan. In 2021, Fire-Flyer I was retired and was replaced by Fire-Flyer II which cost 1 billion Yuan. At the end of 2021, High-Flyer put out a public statement on WeChat apologizing for its losses in assets due to poor performance. The performance of over 100 of its investment products declined by over 10%. High-Flyer stated that its AI models did not time trades well although its stock selection was fine in terms of long-term value. The models would take on higher risk during marker fluctuations which deepened the decline. In addition the company stated it had expanded its assets too quickly leading to similar trading strategies that made operations more difficult. Up until this point, High-Flyer produced returns that were 20%-50% more than stock-market benchmarks in the past few years. Higher In 2023, the company donated 221 million Yuan to charity as the Chinese government pushed firms to do more in the same of "common prosperity". High-Flyer's investment and research team had 160 members as of 2021 which include Olympiad Gold medalists internet giant expects and senior researchers. It has been trying to recruit deep learning scientists by offering annual salaries of up to 2 million Yuan.
