Arabella Menage (5 July 1782 – 9 January 1817), also known as Mrs. Sharp, was a British actress and dancer of the late 18th and early 19th centuries. She was the wife of the artist Michael William Sharp. 'Bella' Menage was born in 1782 in London, one of at least four children born to Theatre Royal, Drury Lane chorus dancer Mons. Antoine 'Anthony' Menage (died c1818) and his wife Arabella née Moore (c1762–1827), who had married in London in 1778. Born into a family of dancers, on 25 July 1782 she was baptised at St Anne's church in Soho in London. Her brother Frederick Menage (1788–1822) was also a dancer at Drury Lane, finding fame as Chimpanzee in the pantomime Perouse, or the Desolate Island at the Royal Opera House in Covent Garden (1801). A younger brother was James Vincent Menage (1790–1865). She began her stage career as a 'mere infant' in Colman's Battle of Hexham and as the Page in Fop's Fortune. Her dancing career commenced as one of the infants in the afterpiece The Prisoner at the Theatre Royal, Drury Lane in 1792 aged 10, appearing as Miss Menage Junior to differentiate her from both her mother and her older sister, Mary (born 1778), who were also dancers. Thomas Gilliland’s The Dramatic Mirror (1808) mentions that Bella Menage was "brought upon the stage in infancy", having been trained by Charles Didelot and James Harvey D'Egville, the latter making her "accomplished" in the hornpipe. On 27 December 1792 she danced on stage at Drury Lane in Harlequin's Invasion with her father, brother and older sister. She may have been the 'Miss E. Menage' mentioned by The London Stage who danced in The Enchanted Wood at the Haymarket Theatre on 25 July 1792 and on five other occasions that summer opposite her sister, Mary, the 'E' possibly being an error for 'B' for Bella. She played Columbine in Harlequin's Amulet, or the Magic of Mona. By 1798–1799 Menage was appearing regularly at the Theatre Royal, Drury Lane, dancing that season in the choruses of Bluebeard, The Captive of Spilburg and in Feudal Times. On 1 January 1799 for one night she stood in for Dorothea Jordan as Zingarella in Aurelio and Miranda, while on 7 January that year she played Irene in Bluebeard. On 17 May 1799 she played Nelly in No Song No Supper. During this period she also appeared at other leading venues in London while her salary increased from 13 shillings and 4d a weeks to £2. During 1799-1800 her roles included Beda in Bluebeard; Cicely Copsley in The Will; Cicely in The Haunted Tower; a Captive in Lodoiska; Sophia in Age of To-Morrow, and Viola in The Strangers at Home. In 1801 at the Haymarket Theatre she played Rosina in The Castle of Sorrento and Patty in Inkle and Yarico. According to Gilliland that summer's production of the pantomime The Corsair entirely owed its success to Menage's dancing the hornpipe as Spoliata. At the Theatre Royal, Drury Lane during the 1802-03 season her salary increased again to £2 10s a week. She was at Drury Lane during the 1804-05 season, appearing in the pantomime Cinderella, or the Little Glass slipper in January 1804, later making an appearance in June 1804 at the Haymarket Theatre as Miranda in The Enchanted Island, an adaptation of Shakespeare's The Tempest. During this period she danced the character of Ethelinde in Caractacus and was in Little Fanny's Love and The Lover's True Knot. She was back at Drury Lane in 1805-06 and 1808-09 and was still appearing there during the 1811-12 season when her salary was recorded as £5 a week. In 1808 Thomas Gilliland described her as an "excellent dancer, and pretty little woman" with a small but elegant figure and regular and pretty features. The actress Sarah Siddons was less complimentary, describing Menage in a 1804 letter as "a naughty little dancing Girl at Drury Lane". On 11 August 1804 at St James's Church in Piccadilly she married Michael William Sharp, a successful portrait painter and a former student of Sir William Beechey. Sharp was distantly related to Mrs. Siddons, who said the forthcoming marriage "will afflict his poor Mother and Sister." As Mrs. Sharp her stage career continued until at least the 1811-1812 season. Arabella Menage Sharp died at her home in Duke Street, Portland Place in January 1817 aged 34. She was buried at the church of St George's, Hanover Square later that month.

The Montreal Olympic Pool was constructed for the 1976 Summer Olympics as part of the Montreal Olympic Park. The Olympic Pool is part of the larger swimming centre, located in the base of the inclined Montreal Tower. The centre has a spectator capacity of 3,012 seats. At the 1976 Olympics, the venue hosted swimming, diving, water polo, and the swimming part of the modern pentathlon events. It had a capacity of 10,000 seats at the time (6,988 temporary seats were installed). The building was designed by French architect Roger Taillibert, who also designed the Olympic Stadium and Olympic Village. The structure, along with the accompanying velodrome, inspired Taillibert's later designs for Luxembourg's National Sports and Culture Centre. Outside of the actual aquatic complex, inside the tower, a small museum exists, commemorating the 1976 Games as well as Games past, with posters and displays in French and English. In 2014, the aquatic complex was closed while undergoing extensive renovations to bring the facilities in line with FINA+ standards.

The Safavid dynasty (; Persian: دودمان صفوی‎, romanized: Dudmâne Safavi, pronounced [d̪uːd̪ˈmɒːne sæfæˈviː]) was one of the most significant ruling dynasties of Iran from 1501 to 1736. The Safavid dynasty had its origin in the Safavid order of Sufism, which was established in the city of Ardabil in the Iranian Azerbaijan region. It was an Iranian dynasty of Kurdish origin, but during their rule they intermarried with Turkoman, Georgian, Circassian, and Pontic Greek dignitaries. From their base in Ardabil, the Safavids established control over parts of Greater Iran and reasserted the Iranian identity of the region, thus becoming the first native dynasty since the Sasanian Empire to establish a national state officially known as Iran.

The Safavids ruled from 1501 to 1722 (experiencing a brief restoration from 1729 to 1736) and, at their height, they controlled all of what is now Iran, Azerbaijan Republic, Bahrain, Armenia, eastern Georgia, parts of the North Caucasus, Iraq, Kuwait, and Afghanistan, as well as parts of Turkey, Syria, Pakistan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan. Despite their demise in 1736, the legacy that they left behind was the revival of Iran as an economic stronghold between East and West, the establishment of an efficient state and bureaucracy based upon "checks and balances", their architectural innovations and their patronage for fine arts. The Safavids have also left their mark down to the present era by spreading Twelver Islam in Iran, as well as major parts of the Caucasus, Anatolia, and Mesopotamia.
