<mask> (19 March 1850 in Palermo – 3 November 1936 in Rome) was a Sicilian-English ornithologist, archaeologist and sportsman. He was a member of the <mask> family. He is mainly known for his work on the birds of Tunisia, and for being involved in the foundation of the Sicilian football club US Città di Palermo. He was married to the author and hostess <mask>. Biography
<mask>'s family came from Huddersfield in west Yorkshire. He inherited the Ingham Marsala wine business through his paternal grandmother, Mary Ingham, whose brother Benjamin (1784-1861) went into business in Palermo. The Inghams were from Ossett in Yorkshire - there is an Ossett website which gives a detailed biography of the Ingham Marsala Wine co.He and his brother William Ingham <mask> (Pylewell Park) inherited vast vineyards and his great grandfather Ingham's banking empire. Their story is told in Raleigh Trevelyan's 1972 Princes Under the Volcano: Two Hundred Years of a British Dynasty in Sicily. Marriage and children
<mask> married Tina Scalia. She was the daughter of General Alfonso Scalia, who landed in Sicily with Giuseppe Garibaldi during the years leading up to the Risorgimento. Choosing to settle in Palermo over the more provincial Marsala, the couple built as their family home the Villa Malfitano, an Art Nouveau mansion near Zisa Castle on the Via Dante. In these years, the Belle Époque age, the house was the venue for lavish parties attended by British and Italian royalty and celebrated European society. Tina Whitaker knew Richard Wagner, Benito Mussolini, the Kaiser and Edward VII, Empress Eugenie and Queen Mary.Attracted by homosexual company, she unwittingly found herself in a circle involved in the Irish Crown Jewels scandal. In 1907 she published Sicily & England: Political and Social Reminiscences 1848-1870. The couple had two daughters; the elder of whom married General Antonio Di Giorgio(1868-1932), a Minister of War who fought in the 1st and 2nd wars in Abyssinia. Thus the family was firmly established in the upper echelons of Italian Society. Adult life
<mask> himself was founder and president of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals at Palermo, and also he was a major figure in the foundation of US Città di Palermo in the later 1880s, becoming the first president of the football club. Birds
In 1891 already a very keen ornithologist Whitaker joined the British Ornithologists' Union. Collecting expeditions to Tunisia followed.These extended over a period of ten years (1894–1904). Notebooks kept at the time contain information on the natural history of the birds as well as other fauna and also the flora of Tunisia. The Tunisian bird and bird nest and egg collection was housed in a villa in the grounds of his home "Malfitano" alongside a very complete collection of Sicilian birds and collections made on his behalf by Edward Dobson in Morocco. To these were added specimens of birds from the Mediterranean littoral. Some of <mask>'s collection of Tunisian birds are in the Natural History Museum, London. The Sicilian birds are divided between the Royal Scottish Museum (bird skins) and the Ulster Museum (bird mounts, eggs and nests). Gallery of Birds in the Whitaker Collection

Archaeology
<mask> devoted the last years of his life to archaeology, purchasing the island of Motya near Trapani the site of a  Phoenician town founded in the eighth century BC.He wrote a book on his excavations in 1921. The site may be explored (online) using the Motya link and is open to visitors. Works

<mask> attended Gwynn Park High School in Brandywine, Maryland and played basketball under head coach Steve Mathews. After a few seasons with the high school team, he was encouraged by his family and others to play for a prep school. Despite this, he said, "I didn't need four years [at a Division I school] to accomplish what I needed to accomplish. If I couldn't accomplish what I needed to in two years, then I shouldn't play in college."In 2006, averaged 26.1 points, 6.2 rebounds, and 5.3 assists en route to a county championship. The guard finished the season earning All-Metro and Gazette-Star All-County First Team honors. Collegiate career
<mask> started out playing college basketball on a scholarship at Howard College, a junior college located in Big Spring, Texas. His mother, Rosetta, supported the decision, even though it would cut down on his time with an NCAA Division I program. She later commented, "I thought that was a better deal for him to get a scholarship and for him to get a degree after two years, and if something came up where he could move on, then so be it." In both of his seasons with Howard, <mask> was named All-Western Junior College Athletic Conference (WJCAC). As a sophomore, he lifted the Hawks to a 25–8 record.<mask> averaged 3.267 three-point field goals per game and recorded a total of 98 treys, ranking second in the NJCAA Division I. He shot .523 from the field and .462 on three-pointers under head coach Mark Adams. He reflected on his experience at the junior college, "The experience at Howard was great for me. Juco really helps get you ready for the next level. The coaching staff there really helped prepare me for life on and off of the court. I learned a lot there about basketball and in the classroom." <mask> transferred to Sam Houston State of the NCAA Division I for his final two seasons at the collegiate level.He was approached by coaches from the school's basketball team in a game with Howard, but he felt sick and had what he called "the worst performance of his career." However, the Bearkats continued to show interest in him, saying that "the offer is still on the table." On November 14, 2008, <mask> made his NCAA debut, powering Sam Houston State to a 100–42 win over Schreiner University, who had a Division III basketball program. He scored 24 points with 8 three-pointers, tying Derick Preston in 1944 and Derrick Williams in 1988 for the most single-game treys in school history. <mask> was effective in his second appearance for Sam Houston State, notching 23 points against Texas Tech. He became only the fourth Bearkat to score 20 or more points in his first two games with the team. He had another notable performance on November 29, when he shot 8-of-12 for a total of 22 points in a victory over Wright State.On January 17, 2009, <mask> scored a career-high 25 points against Southeastern Louisiana, with 8 field goals and 4 three-pointers. The guard, whose team won by a 73–62 margin, scored 18 points in the first half itself. By the end of the season, <mask> was averaging 15.3 points, 2.7 assists, and 3.3 three-pointers per game. His scoring average was the highest for a Sam Houston State guard since Jeremy Burkhalter averaged 15.9 in 2000. <mask> was named to the National Association of Basketball Coaches (NABC) All-District Team with teammate Ashton Mitchell among others and also earned first-team All-Southland Conference honors. Following his junior year, <mask> led the Southland in three-pointers, with 99, and was one of the Division I's top long-range shooters. <mask> started out his senior season with the Bearkats on November 14, 2009, with 15 points of 2-of-7 three-point shooting vs the Division III program from LeTourneau University.He said, "This game we wanted to work on getting the ball inside more, but we may have rushed some shots. I know I rushed a few." Despite this, <mask> led his team in scoring. On November 19, in what is sometimes considered <mask>'s greatest performance, he scored 37 points in a road game against AP No. 4 Kentucky at Rupp Arena. He shot 11-of-16 from beyond the arc, the most three-pointers ever made at the arena and the most by a Southland or Sam Houston State player. <mask> Arena, which was set by the Miami RedHawks' Nick Winbush three days prior. His shots included an off-balance three-pointer past John Wall and a corner trey over Patrick Patterson. However, the opposing Wildcats won the game, 102–92, behind 27 points and 18 rebounds from DeMarcus Cousins.

Sam Houston State finished the season with a 25–8 overall record and went 14–2 in the conference. Strongly due to <mask>'s scoring punch, the team ranked among the best in the Division I for assists.Head coach Bob Marlin praised him by saying, "It's amazing some of the shots he has made. We feel he is one of the best shooters in the country. His outside shooting also opens up a lot for us inside as well." He finished his senior year going .408 from beyond the arc, the second-highest three-point field goal percentage for a player in school history. He also finished fifth on the Bearkat's all-time three-pointer list, recording 270 in his two seasons playing Division I basketball.

<mask> (; 19 May 1928 – 20 August 2008) was a Soviet Armenian mathematician, who made major contributions to the  Approximation Theory. The modern Complex Approximation Theory is based on Mergelyan's classical work. Corresponding Member Academy of Sciences of USSR (since 1953), member of NAS ASSR (since 1956). The surname "Mergelov" given at birth was changed for patriotic reasons to the more Armenian-sounding "Mergelyan" by the mathematician himself before his trip to Moscow. He was a laureate of the USSR State Prize (1952) and the Order of St. Mesrop Mashtots (2008). He was the youngest Doktor nauk in the history of the USSR (at the age of 20), and the youngest corresponding member of the USSR Academy of Sciences (the title was conferred at the age of 24). During his postgraduate studies, the 20-year-old Mergelyan solved one of the fundamental problems of the mathematical theory of functions, which had not been solved for more than 70 years.His theorem on the possibility of uniform polynomial approximation of functions of a complex variable is recognized by the classical Mergelyan theorem, and is included in the course of the theory of functions. Although he himself was not a computer designer, Mergelyan was a pioneer in Soviet computational mathematics. Biography

Early years
<mask> was born May 19, 1928 in Simferopol in an Armenian family. His father Nikita (Mkrtich) Ivanovich Mergelov, a former private entrepreneur (Nepman), his mother Lyudmila Ivanovna Vyrodova, the daughter of the manager of the Azov-Black Sea bank, who was shot in 1918. In 1936 <mask>'s father was building a paper mill in Yelets, but soon together with his family was deported to the Siberian settlement of Narym, Tomsk Region. In the Siberian frost, <mask> suffered from a serious illness and narrowly survived. In 1937, the mother and son were acquitted by the court's decision and returned to Kerch, and in 1938 Lyudmila Ivanovna obtained (from the USSR Prosecutor General Andrei Yanushyevich Vyshinsky) the rehabilitation of her husband.In 1941, in connection with the offensive of the Hitler armies to the South, the Mergelov family left Kerch and settled in Yerevan. Education
Before the war, Mergelyan lived in Russia, and studied at the Kerch secondary school. When at the end of 1941 his family has moved from Kerch to Yerevan, he got into a completely unfamiliar environment,  he did not know Armenian at all. He studied at the Yerevan school named after Mravyan. Soon he excelled in his abilities. In 1943, Mergelyan won the first place at the republican physics and mathematics Olympiad. In 1944, at age 16, he passed the examinations via extern for grades 9-10, graduated from high school and immediately entered the Physics and Mathematics Faculty of the Yerevan State University (YSU).He drew attention to himself at the university, where he during a year passed the first and second courses, and soon began attending lectures of academician Artashes Shahinyan, the founder of the Armenian mathematical school. In addition to studying and working in the seminar, Mergelyan taught in the mathematical circle at the Yerevan Palace of Pioneers. There he gave full freedom to fantasy, writing puzzles for children by conducting competitions to solve particularly difficult tasks and organizing mathematical games. He passed a five-year university course for three years, in the first year he studied only a few days, then via extern had passed exams and immediately switched to the second, and in 1946 he received a diploma. At the same time, he restored the original surname on his father's line and received a diploma already as <mask> Mergelyan. After YSU (1946), Mergelyan entered the postgraduate study at Steklov Institute of Mathematics to Mstislav Vsevolodovich Keldysh. Although all his colossal employment, Keldysh paid special attention to his new graduate student.They met mainly at Keldysh's house, at 8-9 o'clock in the evening, and conducted long conversations about mathematical problems. A thesis for the degree on physical and mathematical sciences, Mergelyan wrote for a year and a half. The defense took place in 1949 and was brilliant. After an hour and a half session, the academic council announced the awarding of a doctorate in physics and mathematics to Mergelyan. Although Mergelyan introduced to defend the Ph.D. dissertation, all three official opponents - Academician Lavrent'ev, Sergei Mikhailovich Nikol'skii and Corresponding Member Alexander Osipovich Gelfоnd - petitioned the Academic Council to award him the Doctor of Science degree. The petition of opponents was satisfied (for this it was necessary to call the members of the scientific council, which took time), and Mergelyan became the youngest doctor of physical and mathematical sciences in the USSR at the age of 20 (at 21). Until today this is a record of getting the highest scientific degree (Doctor of Science) at such a young age in former USSR and present Russia.Career
Mergelyan graduated from Yerevan University in 1947. From 1945 to 1957 he worked at the Yerevan University, and from 1954 to 1958 and from 1964 to 1968 at the Moscow State University named after MV Lomonosov. When he was 24 he became a corresponding member of the Academy of Sciences of the USSR (now Russian Academy of Sciences), which, from the point of view of young age, is yet another absolute record among USSR scientists. He has been a symbol of a young scientist in former USSR. Indira Gandhi, among other famous people in USSR and abroad, has been a friend of Mergelyan from the early 1950s. In 1978, after her official visit to Moscow, Gandhi had also a private visit to Yerevan just as a guest of Mergelyan.In 1952 he was awarded USSR State Prize. Mergelyan was also a talented organizer of science.He played a leading role in establishing Yerevan Scientific Research Institute of Mathematical Machines (YerSRIMM). On July 14, 1956, the Yerevan Scientific Research Institute of Mathematical Machines (YerNIIMM) was founded․ He became the first director of the institute and headed it in 1956-1960. Soon the institute became popular as the "Mergelyan Institute". This unofficial name is preserved and still used nowadays․

In 1961 he returned to the field of pure mathematics. He resumed work at the Moscow Steklov Mathematical Institute of Academy of Sciences of the USSR. In 1963 he was elected Deputy Academician of the Secretary of the Department of Mathematics of the USSR Academy of Sciences (Nikolai Nikolaevich Bogolyubov). In 1964 he was appointed head of the department of complex analysis at the Mathematical Institute, the position he retained until 2002, the same year he was reinstated as a professor of the Mechanics and Mathematics Faculty of the Moscow State University.In 1968, he again left the post of professor of the faculty and only engaged in scientific work. Mergelyan had "traveling permission", and often was on foreign business trips. In 1970 he gave a presentation as a guest speaker at the International Congress of Mathematicians in Nice. Scientific works
Mergelyan's main works include theory of functions of complex variables, theory of approximation, and theory of potential and  harmonic functions. In 1951 he formulated and proved the famous result from complex analysis called Mergelyan's theorem. This solved an old classical problem. The theorem completed a long series of studies, begun in 1885, and composed of the classical results of Karl Weierstrass, Karl Runge, J. Walsh, Mikhail Lavrentiev, Mstislav Keldysh and others.The new terms "Mergelyan's theorem" and "Mergelyan's sets" found their place in textbooks and monographs on approximation theory. Several years later he solved another famous problem, the Sergei Natanovich Bernstein Approximation Problem. Mergelyan also has many important results in other areas of complex analysis including the theory of pointwise approximations by polynomials. His research was the study of the approximation of continuous functions satisfying the smoothness properties for an arbitrary set (1962) and the solution of Bernstein's approximate problem (1963). Mergelyan conducted in-depth studies and obtained valuable results in such areas as best approximation by polynomials on an arbitrary continuum, weighted approximations by polynomials on the real axis, pointwise approximation by polynomials on closed sets of the complex plane, uniform approximation by harmonic functions on compact sets and entire functions on an unbounded continuum, uniqueness harmonic functions. In the theory of differential equations, his results related to the sphere of the Cauchy problem and some other questions. Mergelyan's scientific achievements significantly contributed to the formation, development and international recognition of the Armenian mathematical school, as evidenced by the one organized in Yerevan in 1965, at the initiative and with the active participation of <mask>n a major international conference on the theory of functions.Many prominent mathematicians of the world took part in the conference, which promoted international cooperation and further promotion of the Armenian mathematical school. Death
<mask>n died August 20, 2008. The farewell ceremony took place on August 23, 2008 at the Glendale Cemetery in California. At the request of the deceased, his ashes were transported to Moscow and buried at Novodevichy Cemetery next to his mother and his wife. Awards and prizes

<mask> (; born 23 May 1967) is a Zimbabwean politician, businessman, and farmer. He served as Minister of Public Service, Labour and Social Welfare of Zimbabwe between October and November 2017. He was expelled from the ZANU–PF party during the 2017 Zimbabwean coup d'état. <mask> was born in 1967 to Sabina Mugabe and a Mozambican father. His uncle is former Zimbabwean President Robert Mugabe. He studied at the University of Zimbabwe, where he earned two bachelor's degrees and four master's degrees. Zhuwao went on to become a tobacco farmer and businessman, with interests in several parastatals.He also founded a think tank, the Zhuwao Institute, which focused on economic development and was aligned with the policies of President Mugabe. <mask> entered politics in 2007 when President Mugabe appointed him Deputy Minister of Youth. A year later, he was elected to the House of Assembly for the Zvimba East constituency and was appointed Deputy Minister of Science and Technology, a position he held until 2012. In 2013, he was defeated in the ZANU–PF primaries for reelection to Parliament. In 2015, he was named Minister of Youth Development, Indigenisation and Economic Empowerment. In October 2017, he was named Minister of Public Service, Labour and Social Welfare. In November 2017, he was expelled from ZANU–PF because of his association with First Lady Grace Mugabe and the Generation 40 faction.He is now living in South Africa. Early life and education
<mask> was born on 23 May 1967 to Sabina Mugabe and a Mozambican father. He is the brother of Innocent Mugabe, the former head of the Central Intelligence Organisation, and Leo Mugabe, a businessman and politician. Zhuwao is the only son of Sabina Mugabe who did not use her maiden name as his surname. He studied at the University of Zimbabwe, where he earned two bachelor's degrees and four master's degrees. He holds a Bachelor of Science in Computer Systems Engineering, a Bachelor of Science in Economics, a Master of Business Administration in Information Technology Management, a Master of Management, a Master of Public and Development Management, and a Master of Science in Economics. He earned his most recent degree, the MS in Economics, in September 2014.

Business career
Zhuwao owns Norton Tobacco Farm in Norton.He was said to have been involved in a salary dispute at Norton Farm when he allegedly went three months without paying the workers. <mask> confirmed the incident but said that because he was in the tobacco industry, he could only pay employees once the crop had been sold. <mask> also has business interests in Telecel Zimbabwe, a telecommunication firm that is Zimbabwe's second largest mobile phone operator, through the Empowerment Corporation of Zimbabwe, of which he is a stakeholder. In August 2013, he played a pivotal role in restoring Telecel Zimbabwe's license. Two months earlier, the Postal and Telecommunications Regulatory Authority of Zimbabwe did not renew the company's expired license due to its failure to comply with Zimbabwe's indigenisation policy, which "requires that all foreign firms in Zimbabwe give up the majority of their ownership to black Zimbabweans". To help the firm renew its license, <mask> stepped in to reach a deal in which Telecel Zimbabwe made plans to comply with the indigenisation policy. Reportedly, <mask> himself planned to make himself the company's main shareholder, but reportedly the government did not agree to allow this.Nevertheless, the government renewed the firm's license, though <mask> said that his connection to President Mugabe was not a factor. In 2014, he was named chairman of the newly-created board of directors of the parastatal Zimbabwe Power Company by Minister of Energy and Power Development Dzikamai Mavhaire. In 2014, <mask> started his own think tank, the Zhuwao Institute. The Harare-based institute focuses on research and economic development. The think tank was described by Ken Mufuka writing in The Financial Gazette as having "jumped on the governmental bandwagon" for its association with the policies of Robert Mugabe. Political career
<mask> entered politics in July 2007 when President Robert Mugabe appointed him Deputy Minister of Youth. His appointment was criticized by some as an example of nepotism, because <mask> is Mugabe's nephew.<mask> was placed on the United States sanctions list in 2005. In 2008, <mask> was elected to the Zimbabwe House of Assembly for the Zvimba East constituency, as a member of ZANU–PF. Bybit Lydia Tsomondo had dropped out of the race, clearing the way for him to run. From 2008 to 2012, he served as Deputy Minister of Science and Technology. In 2010, <mask> became a member of the Politburo of ZANU–PF and the youth director of the party. In the 2013 parliamentary elections, <mask> was defeated in the Zvimba East ZANU–PF primaries by Francis Mukwangwariwa, a farmer and former Central Intelligence Organisation operative. In October 2014, Zhuwao became involved in the heated ZANU–PF succession infighting between Vice President Joice Mujuru and then-Minister of Justice Emmerson Mnangagwa.In an article published in state media, <mask> claimed that during a "coup" attempt at the residence of President Mugabe a week earlier, his wife <mask> slapped ZANU–PF Mashonaland West provincial chairman Temba Mliswa after a tense verbal exchange. She reportedly slapped Mliswa, who did not retaliate, once, before others present intervened. Reports of the incident soon went viral on the internet. At a meeting with top government officials days later, Mugabe reportedly denied that a coup attempt occurred, expressed disapproval of the incident, and apologized to Mliswa on <mask>'s behalf. Mugabe also reportedly questioned Media Minister Jonathan Moyo why Mliswa was being portrayed in state media as the aggressor when in reality, he was the victim of the assault. In December 2014, South African businessman Mutumwa Mawere threatened Zhuwao with legal action over "defamatory statements" <mask> wrote about him in a newspaper article. In the op-ed, published in The Sunday Mail, Zhuwao described Mawere as "ideologically bankrupt, devoid of ethics, morality and decency".On 11 September 2015, <mask> was appointed Minister of Youth Development, Indigenisation and Economic Empowerment by President Mugabe. He succeeded Christopher Mushohwe, who went on to become Minister of Information. On 21 July 2016, <mask> was ordered out of the Parliament building after he failed to respond to questioning during a Portfolio Committee session. <mask> had been called before the committee to answer questions about an allegedly corrupt deal he had brokered when he hired a private consultancy firm, whose owner Zhuwao had a personal relationship with, to spearhead Zimbabwe's National Economic Empowerment Strategy. At his questioning session before the committee on 21 July, Zhuwao engaged in a heated exchange with committee chair Justice Mayor Wadyajena. Other Members of Parliament accused Zhuwao of being under of the influence of drugs as he would occasionally burst out in "hysterical" laughter and declined to answer questions, only repeating the statement, "My name is <mask>, and can you allow me to respond in a manner that <mask>o responds?" Chairman Wadyajena told Zhuwao to excuse himself if he was not ready to answer the questions.After a lengthy exchange, the committee asked <mask> to leave the chamber and return when he was "sober and when he understood the questions and issues involved." Some lawmakers said they were surprised by his conduct, noting that in their previous interactions with him he had always been articulate. On 9 October 2017, <mask> was appointed Minister of Public Service, Labour and Social Welfare of Zimbabwe. He announced on 10 November that government employees would be receiving bonuses. 2017 coup d'état and aftermath

On 11 November 2017, it was often incorrectly reported that Zhuwao was taken into custody by the Zimbabwean military in relation to the 2017 coup d'état. The reports that he was arrested were false; <mask> was in fact returning from a trip to South Africa, but turned around after hearing about the coup. On 19 November 2017, <mask> was expelled from ZANU–PF by the party's central committee.Other prominent G40 politicians, including Grace Mugabe, Saviour Kasukuwere, Jonathan Moyo, Ignatius Chombo, Walter Mzembi, Shadreck Mashayamombe, Makhosini Hlongwane, Innocent Hamandishe, Samuel Undenge, and Sarah Mahoka were also expelled from the party. Even after fleeing the country, <mask> continued to be vocal in his defense of President Robert Mugabe, calling Mugabe's critics "dumb." ZANU–PF spokesman Nick Mangwana responded by saying that <mask> should stop making these remarks, calling them "inflammatory". On 27 November 2017, Mugabe's successor Emmerson Mnangagwa dissolved the Zimbabwean cabinet, allowing only <mask> and Simbarashe Mumbengegwi to remain as acting ministers of Finance and Foreign Affairs, respectively, until a new cabinet would be installed. In a December 2017 phone interview with The Standard, <mask> reported that during the coup, his farm was looted and his workers were beaten. He said that he was proud to have served in Mugabe's government, but that he was quitting politics and remaining in South Africa for the time being out of safety concerns. He said, "People can say I ran away—yes I did.It's better than to wait to be killed." After the 2018 Bulawayo bombing, Zhuwao published an open letter to British Prime Minister Theresa May in which he urged her to dispatch Scotland Yard to Zimbabwe to investigate the attack. Zhuwao cited the example of the United States, which sent Federal Bureau of Investigation personnel to Ethiopia to investigate a bombing in Addis Ababa that happened on the same day as the Bulawayo bombing.

<mask> (also <mask> and <mask>) (1583–1660), a Spanish Jesuit and Cardinal, was an eminent theologian of the Baroque. Early life and education
He was born in November, 1583 in Madrid, though he used to call himself a "Hispalensis", because his family seat was at Seville. Both his father (also named <mask>) and his mother (<mask>a, whose family name he bore for a time as was custom for the second son) were of noble birth. At the age of three years he could read printed or written books; at ten, he received the tonsure; at fourteen he defended a public thesis in logic and at about the same time was appointed by King Philip II of Spain to an ecclesiastical benefice which he retained until he became a priest in 1618. Like his elder brother, Francis, he was sent by his father to the University of Salamanca to study law. But Francis entered the Society of Jesus where he became a distinguished theologian and <mask> soon desired to follow his brother. He twice asked his father for permission to join the order but, having failed to receive it, joined  in any case in 1603.After completing his studies he was appointed professor of philosophy at Medina del Campo in 1611 and later professor of theology at Valladolid where he taught for five years. His fame as a professor of theology attracted the attention of the General of the   Jesuits,  Muzio Vitelleschi and <mask> was summoned to Rome where he arrived early in June 1621. Cardinalate
It is said that his lectures even before being printed were spread by copyists in other countries. When the General of the Society ordered him to print his works, he obeyed and without help had the material for the first three volumes prepared within five years (1633, 1636, 1638). When the fourth volume, De justitia et jure, was about to be published, his superiors thought it proper that he should dedicate it to Pope Urban VIII; he had to present it himself to the pope, who was so much surprised and delighted by the theologian's learning that he frequently consulted him, and in 1643, created him a cardinal, a position he accepted with reluctance. The fine carriage sent by the Barberini to bring him as a cardinal to the pope's palace, he called his hearse. This put an end to <mask>'s teaching; but several of his works were published after 1643.As Cardinal, he often had occasion to place his learning at the service of the Church, especially in the deliberations of the took part in the Roman congregations of the Holy Office and of the Council. At the death of Pope Urban, <mask> participated in the papal conclave of 1644. Being a creature of the Barberini, most considered he would vote in favour of their French faction candidate, Giulio Cesare Sacchetti. Instead, he surprised the College of Cardinals and declared himself in favour of the Spanish candidate, Giovanni Battista Pamphili, who was eventually elected and took the name Pope Innocent X. He died at Rome on 20 August 1660, age seventy-seven, being assisted by his fellow  Jesuit  Cardinal Francesco Sforza Pallavicino, one of his most devoted disciples. According to his wish, he was buried near the tomb of the order's founder St. Ignatius of Loyola so that "his heart might rest where his treasure was", as is said in his epitaph. His generosity to the poor was renowned, and although his income was small, he daily distributed among them bread, money and even remedies, such as quinquina, then newly discovered, which the people at Rome used for a time to call Lugo's powder.Writings

The works of <mask> <mask>, some of which have never been printed, cover nearly the whole field of moral - and dogmatic theology. The first volume, De Incarnatione Domini (Lyons, 1633), of which the short preface is well worth reading to get an idea of <mask>'s method, came out in 1633. It was followed by De sacramentis in genere; De Venerabili Eucharistiæ Sacramento et de sacrosancto Missæ sacrificio (Lyons, 1636); De Virtute et Sacramento poenitentiæ, de Suffragiis et Indulgentiis (Lyons, 1638); and De justitia et jure (Lyon, 1642), the work on which <mask>'s fame especially rested. In composition of this important treatise, he was greatly aided by his knowledge of law acquired in his younger days at Salamanca, and it was this work which he dedicated and presented to the pope in person and which may be said to have gained for him a cardinal's hat. <mask> wrote to other works: De virtuto fidei divinæ (Lyon, 1646), and Responsorum morialum libri sex (Lyon, 1651), published by his former pupil, fellow Jesuit and friend, Cardinal Francesco Sforza Pallavicino. In these six books <mask> gives, after thorough discussion, the solution of many difficult cases in moral theology;  it consists of questions proposed to him for solutions over long years. The seventh volume, "De Deo, de Angelis, de Actibus humanis et de Gratia" (Cologne, 1716), was published over fifty years after the author's death; the idea, as expressed on the title page, was to complete his printed course of lectures.Other works on theology and especially on philosophy: "De Anima", "Philosophia", "Logica", "De Trinitate", "De Visione Dei", etc. are still preserved in manuscripts in the libraries of Madrid, Salamanca, Karlsruhe, Mechlin etc. Among the unprinted works, the analysis of Arnauld's book, De frequenti Communione and the Memorie del conclave d'Innocenzo X: Riposta al discorso ... che le corone hanno jus d'eschiudere li cardinali del Pontificato may be of special interest; they are the only controversial works of Lugo. What he intended in his writings was not to give a long treatise, exhaustive from every point of view; he wished only "to open up a small river, to the ocean", without relating what others had said before him and without giving a series of opinions of previous writers or furnishing authors or quotations in number; he aimed at adding what he had found from his own reflection and deep meditation on each subject. Other features of his theological conceptions are the union he always maintains between moral and dogmatic theology, the latter being the support of the former, and the same treatment being applied to both, discussing thoroughly the principle on which the main points of the doctrine rest. From this point of view the last lines of his preface De justitia et jure are instructive. In several problems he formed a system of his own, as for instance about faith, the Eucharist, the hypostatic union, etc., and owing to the thorough discussion of the question at issue, his opinion is always to be taken into account.In moral theology he put an end, as Ballerini remarks, to several disputed questions. St. Alphonsus <mask>uri did not hesitate to rank him immediately after the Doctor of the Church St. Thomas Aquinas, "post S. Thomam facile princeps", and pope Benedict XIV called him "a light of the Church". Two complete editions of <mask>'s work were published at Venice in 1718 and 1751, each edition containing seven volumes. Another edition (Paris, 1768) was never completed. The last edition is that of Fournials (1868–69), in seven volumes, to which an eighth volume with the "Responsa moralia" and the "Indices" was added in 1891. See also

<mask> (born 17 May 1982) is a Kosovar Albanian jurist and politician serving as the fifth president of Kosovo since 4 April 2021. Born in former Yugoslavia and raised in the city then known as Titova Mitrovica, today the city of Mitrovica, Osmani became a political activist and studied law in Pristina as well as in the United States in Pittsburgh. She worked as an advisor to the then president of Kosovo Fatmir Sejdiu before she was elected to the Assembly. Osmani held the position of Speaker of the Assembly from February 2020 to March 2021, and also served as acting president between November 2020 and March 2021 after the resignation of President Hashim Thaçi. Upon her election as president, Osmani became the second woman to hold the position, as well as also being the first person to have served as both acting president and president of Kosovo. <mask> has run successfully on an anti-corruption platform and has expressed a desire to normalize relations between Kosovo and Serbia. Early life and education
<mask> was born on  in Mitrovica, then a part of  SFR Yugoslavia.She grew up with four siblings, and completed her primary and secondary education in her hometown. The Kosovo War occurred while Osmani was a teenager, and she stated that she "can still feel" the barrel of an AK-47 rifle that a soldier forced into her mouth after her home in Mitrovica had been raided. <mask>
<mask> has been a teaching assistant at the  University of Pristina, a lecturer at RIT Kosovo, and a visiting professor at the University of Pittsburgh. Politics

<mask>'s political career began in her teens, as an activist for the centre-right Democratic League of Kosovo (LDK).On 27 August 2009, she was elected chief of staff for then president Fatmir Sejdiu. Osmani had also served as legal counsel and foreign policy advisor to the president. She was a member of the Assembly of Kosovo for three terms, and once received the largest number of votes for a female politician in Kosovan parliamentary history. Osmani contributed to the independence of Kosovo, as the president's representative for the Constitution Commission, the body that prepared the Kosovan constitution. She represented Kosovo in a case at the International Court of Justice, where she defended the legality of Kosovo's independence. As part of her parliamentary duties, <mask> served as the chair of the Committee on Foreign Affairs, Diaspora and Strategic Investments and the Committee on European Integration. She also served as the vice-chair of the Committee on Constitutional Reforms in Kosovo.In 2014, <mask> clashed with LDK leadership, including party leader Isa Mustafa, when she criticized the LDK for forming a coalition government with its long-time rival party, the Democratic Party of Kosovo (PDK), breaking a previously made pledge. <mask> also boycotted the presidential election in 2016, in which PDK leader Hashim Thaçi was elected president as part of the coalition agreement. 2019 election

<mask> was viewed as a possible prime minister of Kosovo by the LDK in the 2019 snap parliamentary election. While campaigning for the election, she said the Kosovan people were ready for a female prime minister, and that she could fight corruption and make free market reforms for Kosovo. She lost the election to Albin Kurti, leader of the left-wing anti-establishment party Vetëvendosje, and had received 176,016 votes. On , <mask> was removed from her position as her party's deputy leader, after LDK leader Mustafa called for her dismissal due to her public opposition of decisions made by the party. Prime Minister Avdullah Hoti replaced her as LDK deputy leader.<mask> later quit the LDK altogether on , stating that the party had left her no choice, but adding that she would return if the party were reformed. Acting presidency
In 2020, <mask> was appointed acting president of Kosovo after President Thaçi resigned following an indictment by the Kosovo Specialist Chambers and Specialist Prosecutor's Office in The Hague. In preparation for the 2021 Kosovan parliamentary election, <mask> announced the founding of her own political party, Guxo, on . She also aligned with Kurti's Vetëvendosje party. Running on an anti-corruption platform, both parties scored landslide victories, and <mask> personally received more than 300,000 votes. The election also gave women a third of the 120-seat parliament and an unprecedented six positions out of fifteen in the cabinet. In contrast, the LDK, <mask>'s former party, did very poorly in the elections, as predicted by LDK members who had publicly criticized the earlier ouster of Osmani in 2020.The LDK lost roughly half of its seats in parliament, and party leader Mustafa resigned on . Presidency
On , the assembly elected <mask> as Kosovo's president during its third round of voting. Although the vote was unattended by two opposition parties as well as a party representing the ethnic Serb minority in Kosovo, 82 members of the 120-seat parliament cast their votes during the second day of the extraordinary session. She won 71 of the votes, while 11 votes were declared invalid, and was subsequently sworn in for a five-year term later that day, becoming Kosovo's second female president. <mask> said that she hoped to normalize relations between Kosovo and Serbia, while also calling for Belgrade to apologize for the war that led to Kosovo's declaration of independence and to prosecute those who had committed war crimes. Before taking the oath of office, <mask> resigned from the leadership of Guxo. Newly appointed Minister of Foreign Affairs Donika Gërvalla replaced her as Guxo's head.Official visits

<mask> (Buenos Aires, Argentina, 1957) is an Argentine visual artist known for her multi-channel video installations. In Latin America she is considered a precursor in the area of expanded video. Her work is characterized by the crossing of materialities and technologies in which she uses both electronic devices and ancestral techniques. Her production is organized in thematic series of video installations, drawings, photographs or objects. Interested in revealing the metaphorical power of different materialities, she uses the electronic medium and the moving image to record stillness, the imminent and the subjective perception of time. Among other distinctions, in 2001 she received the Guggenheim Fellowship and the Konex Award, diploma of merit for the five-year period 1997-2001 and, in 2002, the Argentine Video Award at the Art Biennial of the National Museum of Fine Arts; in 2005, the video post-production residency grant from the Wexner Center for the Arts, Columbus, Ohio. In 2006 and 2007, she was awarded third and second prize, respectively, at the  Salón Nacional de Artes Visuales in New Media and Installations.In 2012 he received again, the Konex Award diploma to the merit corresponding to the decade 2002-2012. She has represented Argentina in the Mercosur Biennial, Porto Alegre, 3rd and 5th editions, in the 8th Havana Biennial, and in Bienalsur 2019. Her work is part of national and international collections, both public and private. Among them the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía, Museo de Arte Latinoamericano de Buenos Aires, Buenos Aires Museum of Modern Art. Biography
In 1981 she graduates from the National School of Fine Arts "Prilidiano Pueyrredón" with a specialty in sculpture. At the same time, she trained with Kenneth Kemble, in whose workshop she worked as a drawing teacher, and with Víctor Grippo, whom she considers her main reference and with whom she reflects on materials and the power contained in them. In her beginnings she made paintings, drawings and objects, supports with which she would work throughout her career.In these works, Rivas incorporates diverse techniques and materials, such as photographic emulsion on stainless steel plates, interventions with resin, natural elements, glass and graphite. During this period, the circulation circuit of contemporary art in Buenos Aires was still dominated by the division into traditional disciplines, making his objects difficult to classify. From 1990 onwards, she incorporated video as an expressive medium to address the theme of time with greater precision. Her concerns about time and the human dimension lead her to problematize the medium and she begins to make audiovisual installations. In an interview the artist states:"The moving image started to become necessary to me around 1998, when I was working on a series of works on paper and steel with the idea of pointing out, through the image, a double characteristic of time: that of leaving traces and erasing them in the same action. I was interested in how this property operates on memory and objects. "Cuentas de vidrio, one of his first video installations, participates in the International Video Art show, at the Museo Nacional de Bellas Artes in 1990, where he will later hold a solo exhibition of his objects.In 2000, he received a Guggenheim Fellowship with the project Notas sobre el tiempo (Notes on Time), which allowed him to mount a twelve-channel video installation at the Cronopios hall of the Centro Cultural Recoleta in Buenos Aires in 2001, in the midst of the institutional explosion in Argentina. This exhibition, in which he conveys the urgency and cacophony of the social climate, is considered a turning point in his production. In an introductory text to Rivas' work, Eugenio Viola refers:"Since 2001, Silvia Rivas has developed an evident interest in time-based practices, which includes the relationship between video, the body, and the environment, as well as strategies related to the field of so-called "delegated performance", with all that it may imply for post-produced video. Over the years, Rivas has explored the characteristics of the state-of-the-art video technologies of the time and has developed a personal video-approach that makes extensive use of slow motion, extended playback, and accelerated sequence effects to investigate time and space. Looking at Rivas's work with hindsight, there is no doubt that she is a pioneer of experimentation with the "expanded" possibilities of video, in its qualities for both installation and ambience, and not only in Argentina, but also within the broader context of Latin America." During the economic and social crisis in Argentina, Rivas produces the work Llenos de esperanza in which the social problems can be read metaphorically from an existential point of view. The political commitment of the work is aligned with the premise of the 8th Havana Biennial, in which he participates in 2003.For this same work he received the Argentine Video Award at the Biennial of Art, National Museum of Fine Arts. In 2004 he mounted Todo lo de afuera at the Buenos Aires Museum of Modern Art. Recording the action of a group of adolescents at risk. The work explores the link between the subject, its relationship with the environment and with the other. At the same time, Rivas makes a series of portraits of young people taken as archetypes and returns to the theme of landscape in Pequeño acontecimiento-Paisaje a definir. The Río de la Plata and the horizon of the plains are shown as a poetic analogy to Argentine identity and history. In 2010, he presents Zumbido in the Contemporary Program of the Museo de Arte Latinoamericano de Buenos Aires, with large projections and surround sound.This series deals with the condemnation to permanent action through scenes in which a woman and a swarm of flies interact. In 2014 he manages to exhibit the complete series at the Museo Municipal de Bellas Artes Juan B. Castagnino in the city of Rosario, Argentina, generating a journey through several rooms, in which obsessive actions and rhythms follow one another. The set of drawings Odisea Invisible closes the tour. That same year, under this title, he made an intervention with graphite on the walls of Fundación Proa. In the following period, simultaneously with the filming of Momentum, she made small installations or assemblages with video, treating the landscape as an imaginary and artifice of Paradise. An example is the work of the artist: Igual el paraíso es nuestro. With a high-speed camera to achieve defined images of minimal instants, she records the performances for her series Momentum.Pieces from this series that include materials such as Carrara marble or porcelain, were shown in the exhibition Migraciones en el Arte contemporáneo at MUNTREF in the 2019 edition of Bienalsur and at RolfArt. In 2018's Fuerza Diagonal moves from subjective perception to a group perspective. The title of this series is inspired by Hannah Arendt's eponymous concept and refers to action with the other as a transformative possibility. She lives and works in Buenos Aires. She is represented by the galleries: RolfArt, Buenos Aires; and Diana Lowenstein, Miami. Work
Materials and their physical particularities occupy a prominent place in the work of Silvia Rivas traveling through different supports according to their metaphorical potential. She investigates the states of being, the condition of man as such.In the artist's vision, internally the subject only finds his power in an attitude of tenacious and constant resistance, firmly taken to his present. Since the nineties she has incorporated video and performance, spatially mounted, as a central medium in her artistic production. Interested in her ability to capture visual ideas rooted in time. Rivas' works explore situations where time materializes as an unavoidable presence. Her aesthetic questions the viewer, invites him to immerse himself in a universe of more or less constant realities, confronting him through her video installations with unfathomable dimensions of spatiality and temporality. In the words of Rodrigo Alonso:"His work also manifests a political commitment to each context of production and exhibition. In 2001 the economic, social and political crisis of the country changed the physiognomy of the environment.Its impact on people leaves painful traces, both for those who suffer it and for those who witness its atrocious consequences. In this context, the actions of the characters that populate Silvia Rivas' videos become less and less abstract. "Although Rivas often tries to relativize historical imprints in order to project her works towards the philosophical terrain, as the creative interrelationship progresses, some contexts begin to emerge that anchor the works definitively to a more defined community and/or epochal environment. The protagonism that the body is acquiring as the axis of some existential conflicts are becoming flesh when Rivas begins to work with performers, who, being taken as archetypes, provide a concrete and situated corporeality, as seen in Todo lo de Afuera (2004) or Fuerza diagonal (2018). In Zumbido (2010) he exacerbates the power of metaphor in that, he does not portray any existing reality outside the electronic framework. The flies represent something beyond them. With the title Pequeños paraísos ensamblados (2015), Rivas develops a series of small video installations, small edens to which we can aspire as urban dwellers, tiny, almost clandestine spaces, foreign to the experience of metropolitan life and its offers of electronic pleasure.The existential - and even metaphysical - concern deepens in the immediately subsequent works, when the human figure reappears as the guiding thread of poetic reflection: Momentum (2017), Fuerza diagonal (2018).
