title: Makrai State

text:
Makrai State was a princely state in India during the time of the British Raj. The seat was in Makrai.

In 1892 the state covered an area of  forming an enclave surrounded by the British territory of the Nerbudda Division of the Central Provinces. Makrai State had a population of 16,784, which was reduced by famine to 13,025 by 1901. The state's rulers were of Rajput lineage and bore the title Maharaja.
According to tradition the ruling family originally held the taluka of Kalibhit in [Harda] district.

History

According to legend Makrai princely state was established in 1663 century by Gond Raja Karkat Rai who hailed from a family that owned land in Harda tehsil.
In the 18th century the Scindia and the Peshwa warriors took over the forested areas of Kalibhit and Charwa from Makrai. In December 1890 the British government took over Makrai State under the doctrine of lapse owing to bad administration. Power was restored to the native ruler in 1893 under the condition that he appoint a Diwan (Minister) duly approved by the British Head Commissioner.

Makrai State was under the administrative authority of the Central India Agency until 1933, when it was transferred to the Bhopal Agency subdivision of the Central India Agency in 1933 from the Central Provinces and Berar.

After Indian independence in 1947, the rulers of Makrai acceded to the Union of India on 1 February 1948. The principality was incorporated into the state of Madhya Pradesh, which in turn was created from the territories under the former Central Provinces and Berar.

As of 2012, the titular Maharaja of Makrai is Raja Ajay Shah, born on 21 January 1956, married on 20 May 1986 and crowned on 21 December 1987.

Rulers
With the 26th Amendment to the Constitution of India, the Government of India abolished official recognition for all titles, classes and privy purses for heads of former princely states. However, many royal households continue succession and generally have limited social influence on their former subjects. The former Kings and Princes do not wield any legislative or jurisdictional power unless elected through general democratic representation. For Makrai, the ceremonial present ruler is Raja Sahib Ajay Kumar Shah, Raja of Makrai.

title: Taxation in the Czech Republic

text:
Czech Republic's current tax system was put into administration on 1 January 1993. Since then, an updated VAT act was introduced on 1 May 2004 when Czech Republic joined the EU and the act had to correspond to EU law. In 2008, the administration also introduced Energy Taxation. Changes to tax laws are quite frequent and common in the Czech Republic due to a dynamic economy. The highest levels of revenue are generated from income tax, social security contributions, value-added tax and corporate tax. In 2015, total revenue stood at CZK 670.216 billion which was 36.3% of GDP. The tax quota of the Czech Republic is lower than the EU average. Compared to the averages of the OECD countries, revenues generated from taxes on social security contributions, corporate income and gains and value added taxes account for higher proportions of total taxation revenue. Personal income tax lies on the other end of the spectrum where the revenue is proportionally much lower than the OECD average. Taxes on property also account for lower levels of revenue.

Tax system structure and Tax Rates
The Czech tax system consists of direct and indirect taxes. Direct taxes include income tax (both corporate and personal), road tax, real estate and real estate transfer tax, inheritance tax and gift tax. In between indirect taxes belong value added tax (VAT), duties, ecotaxes and excise taxes.

Indirect Taxes

Value Added Tax
The sale of goods, provision of services and imports is taxed using the VAT just like in all EU countries.
There are three VAT rates in the Czech Republic with the standard rate at 21%. This rate is applied to all goods and services which are not listed on a special roster for reduced taxes. The First reduced rate is 15% and is applied on the things listed on Annex 3 to the Law No. 235/2004 Collection. Examples of goods taxed by 15% are grocery and non-alcoholic beverages, plants and animals, music notes, books and some drugs. The second reduced rate is 10%. Under this tax falls for example baby food and radiopharmaceuticals. In the case of imported goods the standard rate is usually used, when at least one type of good fits into Harmonized description and number labeling system and when there is a uniform duty rate. The exception is when the goods value is lower than 22 EUR, than it is exempted from tax - according to § 71, Law No. 235/2004 Coll.

Excise Tax
Objects of the excise tax in the Czech Republic are engine oils, alcoholic beverages as wine and beer and other distillates and tobacco products. The excise tax is a fixed amount per the label of good with the exception of cigarettes where the amount taxed is calculated as the fixed amount plus proportional amount of the final retail price. The difference between excise tax and VAT is that VAT is imposed on every good while excise tax is imposed just on goods that are harmful for our health, morally hazardous or are harmful or costly for society. Another name for this tax is a "sin tax". From excise tax are exempted tobacco products destined for test of quality and samples taken by customs office.

The excise tax is collected by selling stamps. These stamps are used for marking alcohol and cigarettes and it's forbidden to sell it without stamps.

Ecotaxes
Ecotaxes were accepted as a part of Czech law system on 1 January 2008 as a consequence of being a part of the EU. They are modified in the law no. 261/2007 Coll. (Slightly changed on 1 October 2013 by the law No. 169/2013 Coll.) Types of ecotaxes in the Czech Republic are air protection (air pollution fee), water protection (fee for the discharge of wastewater into surface water), protection of the rock environment, soil protection, and waste and packaging management (waste disposal fee). Objects of the ecotax are natural gas, black and brown coal, coke and other hydrocarbons peat and electricity.

One example of ecotax is registration fee for vehicles complying with lower European emission standards. The fee varies: free of charge for vehicles satisfying Euro 3, 4, 5 and 6; 3,000 CZK for vehicles satisfying Euro 2; 5,000 CZK for vehicles satisfying Euro 1. For vehicles that do not comply with any European emission standards the fee is 10,000 CZK – it is not often worth to pay it, so the vehicle is ecologically disposed of.

Energy Tax is another ecotax and it is imposed on natural gas and other gases, electricity and solid fuels. The tax is levied to the sellers of energy or the operators of distribution or transmission systems.

Direct taxes

Corporate Income Tax
Legal Entities residing in the Czech Republic need to pay corporate income tax on their worldwide income. Foreign companies are taxed on income that is sourced in Czech Republic only. The standard corporate tax rate is 19%. Investment funds have a special tax rate of 5% and for pension funds the rate is 0%. A 15% rate is levied on dividend income of Czech tax resident entities from non-resident entities.

Every corporate taxpayer can choose between straight-lined and accelerated depreciation of tangible assets. The depreciation period varies between three and fifty years, depending on the depreciation group.

Personal Income Tax
Individuals that are considered as tax residents in the Czech Republic are levied a flat personal income tax rate of 15% from gross income (used to be calculated from super-gross income which was cancelled in January 2021) and for individuals with yearly incomes exceeding 48 times the average monthly salary within the calendar year there is a solidarity surcharge of 7%. Non-tax residents are levied only for income sourced in Czech Republic. Taxable income includes income from employment, entrepreneurial income, capital (interest, dividends, etc.), rent and other forms of income.

Social Security contributions
In Czech Republic, all workers are liable to Czech social and health insurance payments. State social security system covers health care provisions; pensions, employment insurance and sickness pay as well as child-related benefits and other social services. Both employers and employees contribute to the social security system.Social Security Contributions 2019

Real Estate Tax and Real Estate Acquisition Tax
Tax is levied on land as well as buildings and units. Real Estate Tax is paid annually, usually levied to the owner and in special instances to the lessee. The tax on buildings is based on the area of land occupied. The Building and unit tax ranges from CZK 2 to CZK 10 per square meter and in some cases can increase by 0.75 CZK per square meter with every floor exceeding 1/3 of the building built up area. The levy on agricultural land is 0.75% of its value. Other types of land are levied based on their area ranging from CZK 2 to CZK 5 per square meter for business activities and CZK 0.20 in other cases. Previously there was also an acquisition tax that was levied to the buyer at a flat rate of 4%. This was abolished as of 18 September 2020. Cms Law

Gift tax
Gift tax is transferred from free transfer of property (both movable and immovable). It is levied on a person who was given a property. The tax rates are based on the scheme where there are illustrated groups of kinship and on the size of property. There are several people exempt from the gift tax: wife/husband, relatives, and people who lived with the testator in one household for the duration of at least one year. Also, gifts from one person with total value less than 15,000 CZK given in the same tax period are exempt from this tax.

Tax inheritence was calceled

Road Tax
Road Tax is a tax, that is supposed to be paid by everyone who uses his/her car or another vehicle, registered and operated at the territory of the Czech Republic, for a business purpose. Vehicles used exclusively for personal use are tax-exempt. It's one-off fee. The level of tax for personal vehicles is determined by the engine capacity, whereas for lorries by the maximum authorized weight weight per axle and the number of axles. Exceptions are so-called ecological cars (electric, gas,...) and some are totally exempted from the fee.

There is also a special fee for using the highways which is obligatory to pay for all the vehicles using highways which is since 2021 in electronic form. Electric, hybrid or hydrogen-based vehicles fully exempted from paying this fee. Vehicles powered by natural gases are partially exempted and pay lower fees (half of the original fee).

Tax Administration
There are several levels of administrative bodies within the financial administration in Czech Republic.

Tax Offices and Specialised Tax Offices
Tax Offices are placed on the first level of the financial organisational hierarchy. Their main role is based around performing the administration of particular taxpayers and taxes. They transfer collected tax incomes and have several other roles surrounding the control, monitoring and supervision of the tax system and specific regions within the economy to prevent issues. A specialized tax office administers taxes of the law-stipulated tax subjects. There are also Territorial Branches that are organizational units of Tax Offices and their role corresponds to the same activities of Tax Offices.

Appellate Financial Directorate
"Appellate Financial Directorate (AFD) was established by Act No. 456/2011 Coll., on the Financial Administration of the Czech Republic as of 1. 1. 2013. The Appellate Financial Directorate carries out its activity for the whole territory of the Czech Republic and the seat of the Appellate Financial Directorate is in Brno. The Director of the Appellate Financial Directorate is appointed and removed by the Director-General of the General Financial Directorate."

AFD is responsible for performing the role of an administrative body and methodical management of the tax authorities. It follows up and makes decisions on the proceedings and appeals about administrative offences.

Ministry of Finance of the Czech Republic
The main role of the Ministry of Finance in the tax system is to supervise other lower tax authorities, because it is on the top of the administrative hierarchy. Otherwise the Ministry has more functions—not just supervising taxes. Its organization chart is divided into eight sections. Each section takes care of one area e.g. there is a section specializing in Financial management and audit, Public Budgets, International Relations and Financial Markets etc. The Ministry is also responsible for the state budget, the state final account and foreign-exchange policy.

The Ministry was established according to the Act No. 2/1969 Coll.

History
The tax system in the Czech lands during Middle Ages developed similarly as in other European countries. The tax collecting was fully in the power of the reigning monarch.

During the reign of Charles IV. there were many possible tax reliefs, for example not paying any taxes from newly established vineyards for a period of twelve years. But there were also a special tax for Jewish minority. They had to pay an annual fee which was almost twice as high as the tax for the rest of the population for using land and protection from the king.

In 1546, there was implemented a tax from selling beer. This tax kept increasing till the end of 16th century.

During the Austrian Empire in the 18th and 19th centuries, the Bohemian Kingdom (what is now the Czech Republic) carried a significant part of the tax burden, as one of the most industrialized parts of the empire, paying 32% of all taxes in the Austrian territories in 1750.

Since the break with the Soviet Union, multiple reforms have been done to bring the economy from a government run economy to a free market economy. This also brought a long range of tax reforms, including the introduction of a flat tax, and shift from direct taxes over to indirect taxes and large amounts of tax simplifications. In 1990, the Czech Republic introduced a long range of environmental charges, including air emission charges, CFC product charges, water extraction and pollution charges, sewage charges, charges for waste disposal, land conversion charges, and an airport noise tax.

title: Aureobasidium melanogenum

text:
Aureobasidium melanogenum, formerly known as Aureobasidium pullulans var. melanogenum is a ubiquitous black, yeast-like fungus that is found mainly in freshwater habitats. The species also includes strains causing human infections, which were previously classified as A. pullulans. It was named due to abundant melanin production and accumulation in the cell walls, which leads to dark green, brown or black appearance of the cells and colonies The species was established when the genomes of the four former varieties of Aureobasidium pullulans were sequenced and the large differences between them were discovered.

The species tolerates up to 10% of NaCl and grows between 10 °C and 35 °C. Colonies on malt extract agar on average grow to 25 mm in 7 days (at 25 °C), appearing smooth and slimy due to abundant sporulation and EPS formation. In two weeks the colonies become green to black due to the production of melanin. Melanin is produced during the production of pullulan, a polysaccharide partly responsible of the biofilm formation.  Aerial mycelium is generally absent (with exceptions). Frequently both mycelium and yeast-like cells are present.

The genome of A. melanogenum (as well as other closely related species) contains unusually high numbers of genes for extracellular enzymes for carbohydrate degradation (CAZy) and proteases, MFS membrane sugar transporters, and alkali metal cation transporters (or ion transporters). Genes presumably involved in the synthesis of the biotechnologically important polysaccharide pullulan and siderophores were found, but the gene for antibiotic Aureobasidin A could not be identified. Genes possibly associated with the degradation of plastic and aromatic compounds are also present.

Due to the relatively recent redefinition of the species, most published work does not yet distinguish between the new species belonging to the previously recognised A. pullulans species complex. It is therefore not clear to what extent this knowledge is valid for A. melanogenum.

title: Aureobasidium namibiae

text:
Aureobasidium namibiae, formerly known as Aureobasidium pullulans var. namibiae is a ubiquitous black, yeast-like fungus. It was described on the basis of only one strain isolated from dolomitic marble in Namibia (hence its name namibiae). The species was established when the genomes of the four former varieties of Aureobasidium pullulans were sequenced and the large differences between them were discovered.

The species tolerates up to 10% of NaCl and grows between 10 °C and 30 °C. Colonies on malt extract agar on average grow to 25 mm in 7 days (at 25 °C), appearing smooth and shiny due to the leathery structure. The reverse is apricot. Aerial mycelium is absent. Frequently both mycelium and yeast-like cells are present.

title: Ariadna ustulata

text:
Ariadna ustulata is a species of tube-dwelling spider that is endemic to the Seychelles. It has not been recorded on Mahé since 1894, and appears to be restricted to Mont Dauban on Silhouette Island. Its adult population is estimated to be about 7,000 individuals. It is restricted to cloud forests, where it lives in mosses. It is threatened by habitat deterioration from invasive plants, especially Cinnamomum verum, and drying of cloud forests due to climate change.

title: Maxey Dell Moody Jr.

text:
Maxey Dell "Max" Moody Jr. (June 15, 1913 – December 3, 1987), also known as M. D. Moody Jr., was the president and CEO of M. D. Moody & Sons, Inc. from 1950 to 1987 and the founder of MOBRO Marine, Inc. As President and CEO he diversified and expanded M. D. Moody, firmly establishing it as a prominent business in the construction industry. His father's business under his leadership became the oldest family-owned construction equipment distributor in the United States, and at one time the largest crane dealer in the southeast.

Moody was a founding member of the Jacksonville Businessmens Associations, a member of St. Vincent's Medical Centers Board of Trustees and on the board of directors for the Florida National Bank Holding Company.

Early life and family
Max Moody Jr. was born in Jacksonville, Florida on June 15, 1913. He was the first son of Maxey Dell Moody and Ethel (Müller) Moody. His maternal grandfather was Gustav Müller whom had immigrated to the United States from Germany in the 1870s. Gustav settled in Jacksonville Beach, Florida where he built his home in the 1880s. Gustav's house still stands today and is considered to be the oldest house in Jacksonville Beach. His cousin Gustav Müller Jr. became a prominent businessman in Jacksonville the owner of the Hotel Burbridge and the G. Muller Company. Maxey's father Maxey Moody Sr. was in the road building construction industry working for a road grader company in Jacksonville. Five years after Maxey Jr. was born his father established his own road building business called M. D. Moody. Moody attended Andrew Jackson High School and graduated in 1926.

On June 18, 1933 Moody married Dorothy in Jacksonville the daughter of Dorothy and Thomas Boyd. They had seven children: Maxine Rowland (1941-2019), Maxey Dell Moody III (born 1944), Thomas Boyd Moody (1945-2018), Richard "Mike" Moody (born 1948), Elaina Moran (born 1950), Joseph "Joe" Moody (born 1953), Angel Throop (born 1958).

Career

Military service

After graduating from Andrew Jackson High School Moody enrolled in the United States Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland. The Naval Academy had a rule that graduates could not marry until two years after graduation. He decided to drop out and marry Dorothy Boyd who he had met in Jacksonville. After Max left the United States Naval Academy he went to work for the United States Army Corps of Engineers on a levee-building project around Lake Okeechobee. He decided to work for the Corps of Engineers because his father was not happy with him for dropping out of the Naval Academy. Moody worked on a dredge and killed alligators to sell their hides because there was nothing else to do.

M. D. Moody & Sons
Moody, along with his brother Muller Pearson Moody, worked at their father's business M. D. Moody in the late 1930s. The business had become the top distributor of American Crane's products in the United States and helped build military bases in Florida during World War II. With Max and Muller at M. D. Moody it then became incorporated as M. D. Moody & Sons, Inc. While working at M. D. Moody, Max was a part-time teacher with a course on diesel engines in Jacksonville.

In 1949 Max Moody, Sr. died of a heart attack. Moody Jr. became president and Muller became vice president to continue their father's company. He then moved M. D. Moody from downtown Jacksonville to Philips Highway. M. D. Moody & Sons, Inc., under the leadership of Moody began to grow exponentially by expanding with branches in Tampa and Fort Lauderdale in the 1950s.

Diversification of M. D. Moody

By the 1970s it had diversified with several subsidiaries such as Moody Machinery Corp. and Moody Brothers. By the 1980s M. D. Moody & Sons, Inc., had become globally the 10th largest crane rental business. It further diversified with two additional subsidiaries called Moody Machinery Corp. near Atlanta, Georgia and Moody Truck Center.

MOBRO Marine
In 1962 he established Moody Brothers in Green Cove Springs, Florida. The name Moody brothers comes from Moody's sons Max, Boyd, Mike and Joe. He chose to have Moody Brothers in Green Cove Springs because the growth of downtown Jacksonville had no room for Moody Brothers. Moody Brothers operates a fleet of over 100 barges, tugboats, and the rental of heavy marine construction equipment.

By 1987 Moody Brothers became a corporate spin-off of M. D. Moody & Sons, Inc., and was incorporated as MOBRO Marine, Inc. In September 1987 his business Moody Brothers made national headlines when one of its barges called the MOBRO 4000 was carrying garbage from New York City. It was turned away from three countries and seven states making everyone wonder who would take this garbage and raising more awareness about the environment. Johnny Carson also used a running gag on his show The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson of a map tracker for where the MOBRO 4000 was at. When it returned to Green Cove Springs it had to be "all dolled up" according to Max Moody Jr. which was beyond its extended period of time on the high seas.

Health issues and death
In 1976 at 63 years old Moody had to have heart bypass surgery. Ten days later he returned to work to ensure that his business was still continuing its exponential growth. he chose not to retire. 11 years later Moody's health began to decline and on December 3, 1987 he died of a heart attack at the age of 74. He left behind his life's work of M. D. Moody & Sons, MOBRO Marine, Inc. and seven children.

Personal interests
While always having an interest in boating he acquired the USS SC-1332 that was once used in the United States Navy and then made it his fishing boat called the Dinky. In 1958 Moody sold the Dinky to Port Arthur Menhaden Products, Inc.

In 2007, Alec had recorded a song entitled "Every Day is Christmas", which he entered into a competition held by Sufjan Stevens. Alec won the competition, and thus was given the rights to the Sufjan Stevens' song "Lonely Man of Winter", which Alec would play at private listening parties he held in a variety of places all over the world. In 2018, Alec decided to release the Sufjan song he owned, "Lonely Man of Winter", through Sufjan's record label, Asthmatic Kitty Records. The song was released alongside a 2018 recording of the song (entitled "Lonely Man of Winter (Doveman Mix)") which featured Melissa Mary Ahern, and "Every Day is Christmas". All funds raised by the sale of the three songs would go towards Alec's performance venue, JACK.

text:
Gail Stine (nee Caldwell, 1940–December 28, 1977) was an American philosopher who specialized in epistemology and philosophy of language. She was born in Schenectady, New York.

Before her death at the age of 37, she was a professor of philosophy at Wayne State University. Wayne State now holds the annual Gail Stine Memorial Lecture in her honor.

Education
Stine graduated from Mount Holyoke College in 1962. Stine was a student of W. V. O. Quine and received her PhD at Harvard University in 1969 under the supervision of Burton Dreben.

Work
Stine was an advocate of contextualism, the view that our standards for knowledge vary by situation. Stine also advocates the view that for a subject to know that p, she must rule out all relevant alternatives to p, a position also held by Alvin Goldman and Fred Dretske. Probably her most well-known article is her 1976 Philosophical Studies article, "Skepticism, Relevant Alternatives, and Deductive Closure".

title: Château de Balleroy

text:
The Château de Balleroy () is a seventeenth-century château in Balleroy, Normandy.

Outlook
The fief of Balleroy, near the forest and abbey of Cerisy, was acquired on April 1, 1600 by Jean de Choisy, wine supplier at the court of Henry IV.

The castle was built from 1626 to 1636 by his son, Jean II de Choisy who became State Councilor and chancellor of the profligate Gaston, Duke of Orléans, brother of Louis XIII who hired architect François Mansart from 1634 for the reconstruction of the château de Blois.

An architectural Louis XIII chef d'œuvre
The unknown architect, who had already drafted the plans of the château de Berny, a remodeled dwelling for chancellor Pierre Brûlart de Sillery (1624-1625), came frequently to Balleroy from 1632 to 1634 and consigned the old plans of the former castle and village, that were shifted and laid around a main axis to enable a view on road, avenue or honorary path, moderate slope, cour d'honneur framed by two square, long, low, common pavillons, covering floors of boxwood scrollwork, and a terrace surrounded by a balustrade.

A modern œuvre, which marks a turning point in the history of French architecture.

Built in bricks, schist and pierre de Caen, the castle has a central pavillon topped by a roof lantern flanked by two lower buildings. The others are set around the gardens draughted by André Le Nôtre.

The interior of the castle offers a grand salon remarkable for its paintings of Pierre Mignard : Le Char du Soleil, portraits of Louis XIII and the family of his son Louis XIV, wanted by Mme de Choisy.

The jardin à la française is made up of boxwood floor carvings and a flanked terrasse of two pavillons. The castle dominates the river Drôme.

The garden is cited by Philippe Thébaud among the  prettiest gardens in France.

The castle is ranked as a monument historique since January 18, 1951 in France.

Balloon Museum

One of the pavillons hosts the Ballons museum, by Malcolm Forbes, which contains documents on the Montgolfier brothers.

Occupants
The most well-known of the family is Francois-Timoléon (1644-1724), 4th and last son of Jean III de Choisy, travestied by his mother when young — until the age of 18 —, to court Anne of Austria and introduce him to the entourage of her younger son, Philippe of Orléans, of which he became a young gaming companion; as an abbot, he left famous Mémoires pour servir l'histoire de Louis XIV (1737) ; he was sent as an ambassador to the King of Siam in view of a conversion to Catholicism ; in 1698, he sold Balleroy to the princesse d'Harcourt, born Françoise de Blacas.

In 1704, the Balleroy land became a marquisat, to the benefit of one of his cousins.

After the death of the two sons of la Cour de Balleroy during the French Revolution, their grandson only took possession in 1827 and remained the property of the inheritors till it was bought in 1970-1971 by millionaire American businessman Malcolm Forbes, director of Forbes magazine.

The current owner is Los Angeles philanthropist, Roy T Eddleman.

Among the renowned inhabitants were Albert de Balleroy (Albert Félix Justin de la Cour de Balleroy), 19th century animal painter, friend of Édouard Manet and the groupe des Batignolles; for of his tableaux representing hunting scenes deck the castle living room. Empress Eugénie possessed one of his œuvres.

a literary dwelling ?

Marcel Proust visited the castle along with Paul Helleu and may have made a transposition of the castle in À la recherche du temps perdu, which he renamed "château de Guermantes".

title: Matheus (footballer, born March 1992)

text:
Matheus Lima Magalhães (born 29 March 1992), known simply as Matheus, is a Brazilian professional footballer who plays for Portuguese club S.C. Braga as a goalkeeper.

Formed at América Mineiro, he spent most of his career at Braga in Portugal, making over 300 appearances and winning the Taça de Portugal twice and the Taça da Liga once.

Club career

América Mineiro
Born in Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais, Matheus joined América Futebol Clube (MG)'s youth setup in 2008, aged 13. Ahead of the 2012 season, he was promoted to the first team after impressing in the 2011 Campeonato Brasileiro Sub-20.

Matheus made his professional debut on 19 September 2012, coming on as a second-half substitute for field player Fábio Júnior as starter Neneca was sent off, in a 2–0 away loss against Clube Atlético Bragantino in the Série B. The following June, he was chosen as first choice by manager Paulo Comelli, and retained his position during the campaign.

Braga
On 4 July 2014, Matheus moved abroad and signed a five-year contract with Portuguese club S.C. Braga. He made his Primeira Liga debut on 27 September in a 3–0 home win over Rio Ave FC, and finished his first season as starter ahead of Stanislav Kritsyuk and compatriot Victor Golas after being delayed by bureaucratic problems.

Matheus lost his starting spot to José Marafona in the following campaigns, missing the Taça de Portugal final win over FC Porto in 2016 after playing the earlier rounds. He made his continental debut in that same season's UEFA Europa League, appearing in 12 games and only receiving a yellow card in the quarter-final elimination away to FC Shakhtar Donetsk on 14 April, after conceding a penalty through a foul on Viktor Kovalenko.

Matheus returned to the starting XI in 2017–18 after Marafone was injured, and on 15 March 2018 he renewed his contract until 2023. He played every minute of the  campaign, in which his club finished fourth; only five other players in the league matched his feat, three of whom shared his position.

Matheus suffered a severe knee injury in late August 2018, after which Tiago Sá had a run in the team. He returned to his starting role for the 2019–20 season, playing four matches in the Taça da Liga that year, including the 1–0 victory against Porto in the final on 25 January; he featured in as many games in the 2020–21 Taça de Portugal which ended with a 2–0 defeat of S.L. Benfica.

In the following campaign's Europa League, Matheus made two saves in a penalty shootout win over FC Sheriff Tiraspol in the knockout round play-off on 24 February 2022, and days after the last-eight elimination by Rangers in April he extended his contract to 2027. On 12 August, after a 3–0 win at nearby F.C. Famalicão, he reached 250 appearances for the Minho club. He was sent off for them for the first time on 30 September for a foul on Porto's Mehdi Taremi, in an eventual 4–1 defeat.

Personal life
Matheus' older brother, Moisés, was also a footballer. A midfielder, he too started his career at América Mineiro.

title: Barton Dock Road tram stop

text:
Barton Dock Road is a tram stop built on the Trafford Park Line of Greater Manchester's Metrolink light rail system. The stop is located on Barton Dock Road by the remodelled Peel Circle roundabout, and was created to serve passengers boarding and alighting at EventCity and the Trafford Centre. It opened on 22 March 2020.

History
The original proposal for the Trafford Park line included a "Lostock Parkway" stop, just south of the eventual location on the disused Trafford Park Railway freight line by Park Way (A5081). During the construction period the stop was known as EventCity, but was renamed before the line opened by Transport for Greater Manchester in 2020 as the venue known as EventCity had already announced plans to move elsewhere.

Services
From this stop a service runs generally every 12 minutes towards Cornbrook and towards the Trafford Centre.

title: Selim Mouzannar

text:
Selim Mouzannar (born February 5, 1963) is a French-Lebanese jeweler and civic activist. He is the founder and CEO of Selim Mouzannar, his eponymous jewellery house and artisanal manufacturing corporation based in Beirut, Lebanon.

Biography

Scion of a family of renowned craftsman originally from Damascus, Mouzannar was shaped by training at his father's jewelry shop in Beirut's old souks during the heyday of Lebanon's cosmopolitan makeup.

In 1980, Mouzannar left Lebanon in the midst of the Lebanese civil war and went to study in Paris, France. He graduated with a degree in mineralogy and gemology in 1983, coupled with an internship in the Diamonds’ market in Antwerp, Belgium.

From 1984, Mouzannar worked as a production and purchasing manager for a renowned jeweler based in Saudi Arabia. In 1989, he moved to Bangkok, Thailand, managing an international workshop. In the late 1980s, he spent 6 months at the Thai-Cambodian border working in a Ruby mine before deciding to leave the Far-East.

In 1990, Mouzannar headed back to Paris, France where he acquired additional mineralogy expertise from Institut National de Gemmologie.
He returned to Beirut, Lebanon in 1993 to establish his own jewelry brand, Maison Selim Mouzannar.
Mouzannar opened his workshop followed by his flagship store 5 years later in Beirut.

Following the 2006 war over Lebanon, Mouzannar launched a new strategy in order to expand his brand internationally and participated in worldwide exhibitions.

In 2012, he received a certification in Jewelry Design from the GIA Gemological Institute of America, followed by a certificate from the École supérieure des affaires (Beirut) Lebanon) in Marketing De Luxe in 2014.

Mouzannar is known for his crafting technique, known as 'Falamenk' ("Flemish" in Arabic), which combines rose-cut diamonds, with silver-bottomed bezel settings.

Several celebrities have been seen and featured wearing jewels designed by Selim Mouzannar, such as pop star Rihanna, actress Gwyneth Paltrow, Emma Stone at the opening of the Venice Film Festival in 2016, Jennifer Lawrence when promoting her movie Passenger in Seoul in December 2016., French actress Isabelle Adjani during a visit in Beirut in 2017, and Star Wars's new trilogy vedette Daisy Riddley on the movie promo tour in December 2017.

In 2016, Mouzannar created the 'Amal' Necklace, composed of emeralds of varying sizes and reflections. Amal won the "Best in Colored Gemstones" category of the Couture Award in Las Vegas, and was named as one of "30 breathtaking jewels" by Forbes for the year 2016.

Achievements

2010, Mouzannar is amongst five Middle East jewelry designers who featured at a Christie's auction.

2011, Selim is nominated as one of the best 5 jewelry designers of the year by Elle Style Awards during a ceremony held in Istanbul, Turkey.

2012, Selim is designated as one of the best 10 designers for the ‘Great Designers’ award by the World Gold Council.

2014, Mouzannar is designated amongst the 30 Lebanese who emerged and influenced Lebanon in 2014.

2016, Mouzannar's necklace 'Amal' was named as one of "30 breathtaking jewels" by Forbes for the year 2016.

Awards

2016, Mouzannar wins the "Best in Colored Gemstones" category of the Couture Award in Las Vegas for his "Amal" Necklace. "Amal" (which means hope in Arabic) stages 47 emeralds from the Colombian mine of Muzo, crimped on hexagonal bases, among which are placed 8 trapiche emeralds.

Community

As a member of the Executive Committee of Achrafieh2020, a citizen-led environmental initiative to reinvent Beirut's historic neighborhood of Ashrafieh as a sustainable and livable space, and as a joint founder of Right to Nonviolence, a NGO based in Beirut, focused on legal activism and advocacy, Mouzannar developed his involvement in the community as an extension of his profession.

Mouzannar was involved in the nonviolent Cedar Revolution of 2005 that forced the departure of the Syrian military from Lebanon.

A profile in the International Herald Tribune headlined ‘Translating violence into wearable beauty’ pointed to the cross-culture  of Mouzannar's collection.

title: Nannosquilla decemspinosa

text:
Nannosquilla decemspinosa is a species of long-bodied, short-legged mantis shrimp. It lives in shallow sandy areas along the Pacific coast of Central and South America.

It is most well known because when stranded by a low tide the 3 cm stomatopod lies on its back and performs backwards somersaults over and over. The animal moves up to 2 meters at a time by rolling 20-40 times, with speeds of around 72 revolutions per minute - 1.5 body lengths per second (3.5 cm/s). Researchers estimate that the stomatopod acts as a true wheel around 40% of the time during this series of rolls. The remaining 60% of the time it has to "jumpstart" a roll by using its body to thrust itself upwards and forwards.
