February 16, 1659 | First known cheque written (ยฃ400), now on display at Westminster Abbey.
The earliest known surviving cheque is a handwritten "drawn note" dated 16 February 1659 (1660 in modern calendar terms), drawn on British bankers Morris and Clayton in London for ยฃ400. Signed by merchant Nicholas Vanacker, it is considered one of the oldest in existence, originating from the 17th-century development of banking, though similar payment orders existed earlier.

What Is a First Aider? (Complete Roles & Responsibilities)
A first aider is the individual who provides immediate assistance to someone who is injured or suddenly becomes ill before professional medical help arrives.
This role does not require advanced medical training, but it requires awareness, composure, and sound judgment. The first aider becomes the first link between the emergency and professional care.
Roles:
โข As a first aider, youโre responsible for providing immediate, lifesaving medical care to an ill or injured person.
โข You are on the hook for treating minor conditions, like a wound, external bleeding, or injury, for example.
โข First aiders are vital in ensuring the patientโs safety, especially before further medical help or hospital arrival.
Qualities of a Good First Aider:
โ Quick Response.
โStaying Calm Under Pressure.
โClear Communication.
โEmpathy and Compassion.

Formula of the Week
Ramanujanโs Formula for ฯ
Srinivasa Ramanujan (1887โ1920) was an Indian mathematician who, despite having almost no formal training in pure mathematics, made groundbreaking contributions to mathematical analysis, number theory, infinite series, and continued fractions. His remarkable series for ฯ, published in 1914, stunned the mathematical world for its extraordinary speed of convergence and depth of insight.
Why This Formula is Remarkable:
โข Each term of the series adds approximately 8 correct decimal digits of accuracy to ฯ
โข It became one of the fastest known methods for computing ฯ in the early 20th century
โข It was later rigorously proven using advanced concepts in modular forms and complex analysis
โข It laid foundations for modern high-precision ฯ algorithms used in computational mathematics
Ramanujanโs work continues to inspire mathematicians worldwide, reminding us that brilliance is not limited by circumstance but driven by vision, curiosity, and an extraordinary

February 17, 2016 | Oldest known case of human-Neanderthal sex (100,000 years ago) is revealed by the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology in Leipzig when a 50,000-year-old Neanderthal woman's remains from the Altai Mountains show traces of Homo sapien DNA.
Neanderthals are an extinct group of archaic humans who inhabited Europe and Western and Central Asia during the Middle to Late Pleistocene.

February 20, 1962 | John Glenn becomes the first American to orbit Earth aboard Friendship 7.
John Glenn, the man selected to be the first American to orbit the Earth, had been a distinguished World War II fighter pilot and in 1957 had made the first supersonic transcontinental flight across America.
On February 20, 1962, he orbited the Earth three times aboard his Friendship 7 spacecraft in just under five hours.
After his NASA career ended, Glenn became a politician, serving as a senator for Ohio from 1974 until 1999.
