Michael (given Name)
Michael is a usually masculine given name derived from the Hebrew phrase ''mī kāʼēl'', 'Who [is] like-El', in Aramaic: ܡܝܟܐܝܠ (''Mīkhāʼēl'' ). The theophoric name is a rhetorical question – "Who [is] like [the Hebrew God] El (deity), El?", whose answer is "there is none like El", or "there is none as famous and powerful as God." This question is known in Latin as Quis ut Deus?. Although sometimes considered erroneous, an alternative spelling of the name is Micheal. While Michael is most often a masculine name, it is also given to women, such as the actresses Michael Michele and Michael Learned, and Michael Steele (musician), Michael Steele, the former bassist for the Bangles.

Miquel's Theorem
Miquel's theorem is a result in geometry, named after Auguste Miquel, concerning the intersection of three circles, each drawn through one vertex of a triangle and two points on its adjacent sides. It is one of several results concerning circles in Euclidean geometry due to Miquel, whose work was published in Liouville's newly founded journal ''Journal de mathématiques pures et appliquées''. Formally, let ''ABC'' be a triangle, with arbitrary points ''A´'', ''B´'' and ''C´'' on sides ''BC'', ''AC'', and ''AB'' respectively (or their extensions). Draw three circumcircles (Miquel's circles) to triangles ''AB´C´'', ''A´BC´'', and ''A´B´C''. Miquel's theorem states that these circles intersect in a single point ''M'', called the Miquel point. In addition, the three angles ''MA´B'', ''MB´C'' and ''MC´A'' (green in the diagram) are all equal, as are the three supplementary angles ''MA´C'', ''MB´A'' and ''MC´B''. - Wells refers to Miquel's theorem as the pivot theorem ...
