Patrick Pruaitch. Political career
Pruaitch is an important politician within the PNG context. Firstly because he is a long standing MP in a parliament where turnover during elections is high. Secondly, he has been close to power as a member of the Cabinet from 2002–2010 and from 2012–2017. He was Minister of Foreign Affairs for one year in the Marape Cabinet from November 2019-November 2020. Thirdly, he became the leader of the National Alliance Party (Papua New Guinea) after Michael Somare left the party in 2012. He belongs to this party since 2002. Under his leadership the National Alliance Party revived after a big election defeat in 2012 (six seats) to being the second biggest party in the 2017 Papua New Guinean general election (13 seats). In the context of PNG politics it is unusual that politicians remain in the same party and that a party is relatively stable over long periods.

The succession of Peter O'Neill and Pruaitch
Pruaitch publicly criticised in early April 2017 his own government's management of the economy at a party meeting of the National Alliance Party. He was then formally still in the Cabinet as Treasurer. He stressed the rapid growth of the national debt and the fall of government revenue. He doubted Peter O'Neill's willingness to curb public spending at a time when public debt is increasing. The following month, early in May, he accused O'Neill of not providing sufficient funding for police services in preparation for the 2017 general election. O’Neill responded after a few days stating that Pruaitch himself as minister in his Cabinet was responsible for the state of affairs of the economy. Pruaitch was dismissed as treasurer on 12 May 2017, but O'Neill offered him to remain a member of the government as a minister without a portfolio. Pruaitch decided however to leave the coalition.

A vote of no confidence cannot be moved in PNG’s national parliament during a period of 18 months after the commencement of the term of a Prime Minister. The O’Neill/Able government became therefore vulnerable in February 2019. In November 2018 coalition of opposition parties was formed in anticipation of, a Vote of No Confidence. This coalition appointed on 28 May 2019 Pruaitch as nominee for Prime Minister in the Alternative Government of Papua New Guinea. He was proposed and introduced by James Marape as the unanimous choice of the Opposition MPs. Marape was Minister of Finance but he defected from the O’Neill/Abel government in early April 2019.He had been declared as alternate MP before on 7/05/2019. However he later resigned from the post after he was mentioned together with O’Neill in an Ombudman report on the UBS loan, Pruaitch became thus the leader of that coalition which then still fell far short of the numbers to succeed. This changed after more and more MPs joined them. The defection of William Duma and his United Resources Party gave the opposition the numbers to defeat O’Neill. This was followed by another contest for the post of alternate prime minister between Marape and Pruaitch. Pruaitch won with 37 votes against 28 for Marape. Marape proposed thereafter Pruaitch as the prime ministerial candidate of the opposition, The expectation was that the vote of no confidence would go ahead with Pruaitch as alternate PM.

O’Neill avoided then a vote of no confidence by resigning as prime minister which left a void. That was filled by Marape who together with 28MPs rejoined PNC: O’Neill’s party that he had left before. Marape was then elected as PM by an overwhelming majority of MPs: 109 out of 111 votes. Pruaitch initially reacted with a confusing proposal to nominate Peter O”Neill. O’Neill’s nomination was however withdrawn before the vote. Pruaitch protested against the procedure installing Marape as PM and opened a court case four months after the election in August 2019 as he considered the succession illegal. However, in September he withdrew the court case after left the opposition and joined the government coalition

In November Marape appointed him as Minister of Foreign Affairs
Coincidentally: a leadership tribunal against Pruaitch revived in July 2020 accusations of misconduct dating from two decades before. Most cases were dismissed in early October The remaining cases were minor and decided It ended an anomalous situation as Pruaitch was active in office while he was supposed to be suspended.

This is relevant as the accusations could no longer be levelled against him in the next sequence of events. On 14th November Pruaitch joined a group of 13 Ministers in a "camp" of MPs meeting in Vanimo -the constituency of Belden Namah, leader of he opposition- planning a vote of no confidence in the Marape government. Patrick Pruaitch was selected as the alternate PM. in a stiff contest with Sam Basil: 27 against 24 votes, There were 4 abstentions. Marape congratulated Pruaitch. They succeeded after a court case in tabling this motion on 15 December with confidence in a majority. They had a slim majority: government claimed to have 55 MPs behind them. However, the move to unseat Marape collapsed when 18 MPs -among whom Sam Basil- rejoined the government side when entering the chamber giving the government support of 90 members out of the 111 seat parliament.

The National Alliance Party had split during the attempt to mount a vote of no confidence as some of their MPs remained loyal to Marape. Pruaitch rejoined those members along with the other MPs who had supported the vote of not confidence. He is therefore supporting again the Marape government.

Stephen Eastaugh. Artistic Style and Influences
Each of Eastaugh's semi-abstract, mixed-media artworks tells a story based on his travels, such as passing out after his drink was spiked in Peru (Drugs, 1990). Antarctichinoiserie-scape (2004), for example, was inspired by the rafting sea ice found in Antarctica while reminiscent of depictions of distance in Chinese landscape paintings.

Eastaugh calls his art of travel an ‘Unstill Life’. He has made nine trips to Antarctica: three trips as the official Australian Antarctic Arts fellow (2000, 2002–3, 2009), and six times as an artist-in-residence on tourist ships. He travelled twice to the North Pole as part of a Polar art residency on Russian icebreakers. Ulan Bator (Mongolia), Nuuk (Greenland), Nufa Alofa (Tonga), Ushuaia (Argentina) are among the 80 plus countries Eastaugh has visited. His 2006 Summer studio at Australia’s Davis Station in Antarctica was the subject of the ABC TV documentary AntarcticArt. On Eastaugh's third official trip to Antarctica he over-wintered at Mawson station.

The work Eastaugh produces in each country regularly uses materials that resonate with, or are particular to, the local culture. These materials have a strong textural quality: encaustic wax, oilsticks, medical bandages, rugs, fabric, embroidery, damaged paper and pearl shells. Rooted (Mongolia), 2004, for example, abstracts various Mongolian objects and views in 30 panels made from acrylic paint and embroidered medical bandages, wool and cotton thread.

Japan supports non-spacefaring countries in their efforts to build their first satellites through a program called the Joint Global Multi-Nation Birds Satellite project (Birds). Five countries constructed satellites in the Birds-1 program: Bangladesh, Ghana, Japan, Mongolia, and Nigeria. Together, the five satellites make up the Birds-1 fleet. Nigeria EduSat-1 is the first satellite built by a Nigerian university.

In 2010, Martinez and Cano started the project with a budget over €60,000 with using their own technology and savings supported by producer Nico Matji. Rather than hiring professional animators from big budget studios, the two directors recruited the help of ex animation students from 'Pepe-school-Land' which is an academy where Lara taught. Due to the lack of resources, the production used Blender since it was free. When the animation was completed in 2015, it was featured in film festivals across world, but was on the condition that it must not be available on the internet.

Lucius Burbuleius Optatus Ligarianus was a Roman senator of the second century, who held several offices in the emperor's service. He was suffect consul in the nundinium of May-August 135 as the colleague of Marcus Aemilius Papus. He died while governor of Syria.

An inscription in Minturnae, erected after his death and honoring him as patron of the city, records his cursus honorum. Anthony Birley notes that this inscription and his patronage of the colony both point to Ligarianus having a residence there, but as his tribe was Quirina, and the city was enrolled in the Terentina tribe, it was not his place of origin. "Although the very rare gentilicium is not found outside of Italy", concludes Birley, "he may have been a provincial."

Lucius Burbuleius Optatus Ligarianus. Life
His first recorded office was as a tresviri capitales, one of the magistracies that comprised the vigintiviri. This was the least desirable office to hold, for men who held that office rarely had a successful career: Anthony Birley could find only five tresviri capitales who went on to be governors of consular imperial provinces. This was followed by a stint as military tribune with Legio IX Hispana in the reign of Trajan, about the time it was transferred from Roman Britain to a new base along the Rhine frontier. Next he served his quaestorship in the province of Bithynia and Pontus, which had to follow Pliny the Younger's presence there, as the latter never mentions him in his letters from that province. Ligarianus then held in order the next two republican magistracies, aedile and praetor, which, like the majority of his recorded career, were held during the reign of Hadrian.

Lucius Burbuleius Optatus Ligarianus.
That he had to work to achieve his consulship is reflected in the number of offices he had to hold between being praetor and his consulship. First he was curator of the Viarum Clodia, Cassia and Cimina; oversight of the three Italian roads was usually combined. Next he was curator of the public funds of cities in Gallia Narbonensis, and of the cities Ancona and Tarracina in Italy. According to Mireille Corbier, this was part of an effort by the emperor Hadrian to regularize the finances of cities in the Roman Empire; the senator Publius Pactumeius Clemens carried out similar duties at the same time. Next Ligarianus was commissioned legatus legionis or commander of Legio XVI Flavia Firma, stationed in Syria. Upon returning to Rome, he was appointed proconsular governor of Sicily (130/131); this was followed by another administrative position, prefect of the aerarium Saturni with Marcus Aemilius Papus (132-135).

Papus and Ligarianus became acquaintances, for their paths crossed more than once again, most notably as consuls in the same nundinium. Ligarianus' first consular office was curator operarum locorumque publicorum, or overseer of the public works and places of Rome, around 136; his immediate successor was Papus, who is attested in that position 15 May and 13 December 138.

Ligarianus succeeded the historian Arrian as governor of Cappadocia, an office he held at the time of Hadrian's death (10 July 138); which years his tenure began and ended are uncertain. Géza Alföldy dates his tenure from c. 138 to c. 141, while Werner Eck offers the years 137 and 140. Birley writes Ligarianus "might never have held a consular command but for the fact that Hadrian, in the closing years of his reign, had come to distrust many of his former friends." Despite lack of military experience, Ligarianus must have been a success in this role for when he completed his tenure in Cappadocia, Antoninus Pius appointed him governor of Syria; this new responsibility must have followed without a break after he had left Cappadocia, for Alföldy offers the dates of c. 141 and c. 144 as when Ligarianus began and ended his tenure in Syria.

Birds-1.
Birds-1 is the first iteration of a multinational program called the Joint Global Multi-Nations Birds Satellite project, or Birds project, to help countries build their first satellite. The Japanese Kyushu Institute of Technology (KIT) supported the design and fabrication of the satellites. The constellation was launched by a Falcon 9 rocket to the International Space Station on 3 June 2017, as part of CRS-11, where it was released from the Kibō module into space. Japan, Ghana, Mongolia, Nigeria, and Bangladesh participated in the Birds-1 program, all building identical satellites for the constellation.

Sometimes Mazaalai is referred to as Mongolia's first satellite, but it was launched by Bermuda-based company ABS and built by U.S. company Boeing. It was co-branded as MongolSat-1 after launch. Birds-1 successfully launched the first satellite for Bangladesh, Ghana, Mongolia, and Nigeria.

Birds-1. Development and design
Five countries built identical satellites: Bangladesh (BRAC Onnesha), Japan (Toki), Mongolia (Mazaalai), Ghana (GhanaSat-1), and Nigeria (Nigeria EduSat-1). Each satellite cost about US$500,000 to manufacture and launch. The satellites are cubes in the 1U CubeSat class, weighing around each. Power is generated from solar cells and stored in batteries. It carries 0.3 megapixel and 5 megapixel cameras to image the Earth. The constellation can also transmit music and other sounds back to Earth. The satellites also contain provisions to measure the effects of solar radiation on commercial microprocessors and can measure air density. The satellites were expected to remain in orbit for 1.1 years.
