What might be considered the most prestigious classical music competitions for composition?-anything akin to the high standing of the the Chopin or Tchaikovsky Piano competitions? The only one that comes to mind is the Toru Takemitsu Composition Award. I guess I'm thinking outside of things like the Pulitzer and Grammy awards, if that makes sense? 143.44.33.22 ( talk) 02:16, 30 September 2022 (UTC)
The map on http://theguardian.com/business/2022/sep/29/nord-stream-attacks-highlight-vulnerability-undersea-pipelines-west shows both Nord Stream pipelines being parallel for most of their lengths.
Am I right to infer that that is simply a drawing convention, and that they are not literally uniformly separated by around 5 km (according to the scale)?
If so, why are the two crossings important enough to show?
Thanks,

Without wanting to open any wider debate on the current events, but in terms of the new situation - is there any authoritative source on the exact official Russian position on territorial claims? Are any new maps from government sources available? From what I gather from the news is that the 4 areas joined RF as 4 different federal subjects. But does RF maintain claims to the parts of oblasts that are under Ukrainian control? Or are the new federal subjects limited by the extent of control at the time of the accession to RF? -- Soman ( talk) 18:24, 30 September 2022 (UTC)
The article about Shirin Ebadi needs updating. The latest reference in it is 2016. Perhaps the originator could bring it up to 2022? Cherrycherrito ( talk) 22:05, 30 September 2022 (UTC)
