  Chapter 16: A History of Aragon and Catalonia
Juan was recognized by the Cortes of Aragon and Barcelona as their ruler in the latter half of 1458, and Italian affairs immediately claimed his attention.
Juan II was thus relieved of anxiety with regard to Naples, but the same could not be said of Sicily, where his hated son, Carlos, had taken up his residence.
Juan, however, showed no particular energy in prosecuting this success, and appears to have preferred to wait for dissension among the ranks of his enemies, as happened in 1465, when one of their allies, Juan of Beamonte, the most powerful personality in Navarre, deserted the rebels and made his peace with Aragon.

 The Cardinals of the Holy Roman Church - Papal elections - XV Century
During the first year of Pius II's reign no cardinals died, so the pontiff did not think it necessary to hold a cardinalitial consistory, yet Pius also thought that the Apostolic Senate was not giving him and his policies its full support.
The deaths of two cardinals in the late summer of 1459-Jaime of Portugal on August 27 and Antonio de La Cerda on September 12-gave Pius the excuse to add to the College, which was now reduced by four from the number it had been when Calixtus III died.
The oft-repeated anecdote that Barbo wished to be called Formosus II, but was disuaded by the cardinals because they feared the popular disfavor that would be engendered by an obvious reference to his handsomness is probably not true.
