Schlierbach fully came under Württemberg\'s control in 1439 with the purchase of all rights over the township. From 1485 on, it was assigned to the administrative district of Göppingen. Schlierbach grew substantially after World War II, especially by the end of the 1960s. ## Geography The municipality (*Gemeinde*) of Schlierbach lies at the western edge of the district of Göppingen, along its border with the district of Esslingen am Neckar.

# John Masso **Juan Antonio (John) Masso** (17 June 1932 -- 2003) was the second head of Opus Dei in Australia, succeeding Fr James Albrecht who established Opus Dei in Australia in 1963 and being followed by Fr George Rossman. Then Rev Inigo Martinez-Echevarria. His title was Regional Vicar of Opus Dei or counsellor of Opus Dei in Australia. ## Biography John Masso was born in Barcelona on 17 June 1932, one of seven children. He studied Commerce at the University of Barcelona and during that time, asked to join Opus Dei, while continuing to support himself by working for a time in his father\'s business. Later, Fr John studied Canon Law at the University of Navarre and was ordained a priest in 1965. Fr John showed transparency in his leadership as counsellor of Opus Dei in Australia. During the protests in the 1970s against Warrane College, Fr John approached the Sydney Morning Herald to show Opus Dei\'s side to the story. Eventually, calls for the closure of Warrane College were rejected by the University of New South Wales. The now well established not-for-profit social enterprise, continues to thrive. Further details, from time to time, are available on the contemporary ACNC website. Some of the post World War II, 20th century Australian politics of affiliated residential colleges and their establishment arrangements can be found in sources such as the following 1960 Australian PM Transcript at page 10. Also at the following University Colleges Australia reference. In post Napoleonic, 19th-century New South Wales, Archbishop Polding arranged for Rev John Forrest DD to be appointed first Rector of St Johns residential college at Sydney University. During the early 20th Century Cardinal Moran invited the talented and learned Monsignor Hugh McDermott DD to work with him in Sydney. In the lead up to the second vatican council, Cardinal Gilroy spoke with Monsignor Josemaria Escriva DD, now Saint Josemaria, about establishing Warrane College and helping to spread the healthy message about responding to God\'s call to holiness in everyday life for the baptised ordinary faithful of the people of God. Monsignor Escriva had spent the summer of 1959 in London working with others on the beginnings of Netherhall House, an international Uni-student residence, later opened by Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother. Fr John made his personal contribution, over some 3 decades, to this grand ongoing challenge of civic life and leadership in Australia. Fr John had many friends including non-Catholics, for example the Australian Presbyterian moderator, the Reverend Fred McKay. Whilst counsellor of Opus Dei, the message, spread from Sydney to Melbourne, Auckland, Hamilton Tasmania with activities in Perth, Brisbane, Canberra, Newcastle, Wollongong and many other places. Fr John was Regional Vicar of Opus Dei for Australia and New Zealand at the time of the 1983 Code of Canon Law reforms, that saw the formal commencement of the secular Personal Prelatures, under the governance of the Vatican\'s Congregation for Bishops. Fr John also had local carriage of the 1987 visit of the then Prelate of Opus Dei and the now Blessed Alvaro del Portillo DD, which among other events saw a large gathering of the people of god at the Clancy Auditorium at the University of NSW in January 1987. Fr John on 10 July 1991 travelled to wintery Armidale NSW, (via police escort from Tamworth due to bad weather at Armidale airport) to be in attendance for the consecration and installation service, of Kevin Michael Manning as the eighth Bishop of Armidale, preached at a good number of retreats and 26 June memorial services and helped with the inspiration of a good number of pioneering outreach initiatives. Fr John was made Monsignor by the Archdiocese of Sydney. Fr John died in Pamplona, Spain, closer to his natural Masso family members who were associated with textile manufacturing and his early supernatural family members, many of whom were involved in establishing the University of Navarre; after passing by Argentina where he had a conference with the Prelate of Opus Dei, Bishop Javier Echevarria. Upon his death, a requiem Mass was celebrated in St Marys Cathedral by Cardinal George Pell including his predecessor as Archbishop of Sydney, Cardinal Edward Clancy, the Bishop of Lismore, Bishop Geoffrey Jarrett, the Bishop of Broken Bay, Bishop David Walker, Bishop David Cremin and Mons Masso\'s newly appointed successor, Fr George Rossman. The preacher at the Mass said that Fr John had no enemies. Cardinal Pell remarked, \"That\'s not the Opus Dei I know\". A twice yearly bulletin of routine news can be subscribed to online. (Fr John was mentioned in back issue Number 37). In an interview with the Sydney Morning Herald, Fr. John was asked why, when such a command was basic to many Christian denominations and groupings, a special organisation was needed to promote the sanctity of everyday work. Fr John replied, \"Yes, you are right. But how many people do it?\". Fr John\'s collaborators and friends have set up The Masso Foundation, to continue the work he tirelessly carried out during his life. Some details can be found on the ACNC website

# Wangen (Göppingen) **Wangen** is a village and municipality in the district of Göppingen in Baden-Württemberg, southern Germany. It lies on the edge of the Stuttgart Metropolitan Region. ## Geography Wangen lies on a hill above the Fils Valley, on the edge of the Schurwald and around five kilometres from the county town of Göppingen. The edges of the municipal area border Adelberg to the north, Börtlingen and Rechberghausen to the east, Göppingen to the south, Uhingen to the west and the town of Schorndorf in the neighbouring district of Rems-Murr-Kreis. The municipality of Wangen includes the formerly independent municipality of Oberwälden, and is composed of the villages of Wangen and Oberwälden. The hamlet of Niederwälden has now been subsumed into the village of Wangen. ## History The village was first recorded in writing in 1274, when Friedrich von Staufeneck sold all his estates in Wangen and Oberwälden to the Abbey of Adelberg. From 1327, the village belonged administratively to the Württemberg State of the Holy Roman Empire, but the majority of property in the village remained under the ownership of the Abbey. In 1806, the Degenfeld family\'s fiefdom of Rechberghausen and the *Klosteramt* (an administrative division centering on the estates of a dissolved monastery) of Adelberg were abolished and the lands transferred to the new *Oberamt* of Göppingen, which in 1934 was renamed as a *Kreis*, and in 1938 as an enlarged *Landkreis*. In 1935, the hamlet of Niederwälden was transferred from the municipality of Holzhausen to that of Wangen. As part of administrative reforms in Baden-Württemberg, the formerly independent municipality of Oberwälden was incorporated into Wangen on 1 July 1971. ### Religion Wangen was first designated as a parish in 1511, having previously belonged to the parish of Göppingen. In 1557, as part of the Reformation, a Protestant parish was established in the village, and since then there has been no Catholic parish there, Catholics instead attending the parish of Rechberghausen. In addition to this, there is also a small United Methodist community in Wangen. ### Population Datum Einwohner ------------------- ----------- 1837 849 1907 1073 17 May 1939 1233 13 September 1950 1863 27 May 1970 2759 31 December 1983 2976 31 December 2005 3213 31 December 2010 3165 30 September 2020 3236 ## Politics ### Heraldry Blazon: *Per fess Or and vert, chief an attire sable* The green of the village\'s arms represents the surrounding meadows, while the gold represents the profitable wheat fields, and the antler is for the village\'s affiliation to the House of Württemberg. The coat of arms was adopted in 1930, and officially granted by the Interior Ministry on 3 July 1959. ### Partnerships The municipality of Wangen has a limited partnership with the French *Region de Routot*, to which the municipalities of Bouquetot, Brestot, Étréville, Eturqueraye, Hauville, La Haye Aubree, Le Landin, Rougemontier and Routot belong. The rural community of around 5,500 people lies in Normandy. The partnership was established on 1 May 1992, and since then there has been an annual meeting of representatives of the communities. ### Council There have traditionally been no parties or factions in the municipal council of Wangen. It is not possible under the electoral rules to put forward a list containing more candidates than there are seats available. The candidates therefore traditionally put forward to lists - *Free Voters* and *Independent Voters\' Association* - in order to be able to carry out a proper election. ## Economy and infrastructure {#economy_and_infrastructure} There is one primary school in the village, while higher schools are available in neighbouring towns and villages. The village also contains three nursery schools, two community nurseries and a Catholic nursery.

# Brierdene **Brierdene** or **Brier Dene** is a small valley through which the Brierdene Burn flows down to its mouth at Whitley Bay. The valley was partly occupied by a coal mine in the past of which very little is now visible. Part of the valley is now the Brierdene Community Green Space and the Brierdene Wildlife Site. The site is now home to more than 1000 identified organisms and includes an ecologically diverse meadow and is a designated Site of Nature Conservation Importance. Much of work of transforming the valley into a wildlife refuge was undertaken by a voluntary group - the Friends of Brierdene. This work earned them a Queens Award for Voluntary Service. The name Brierdene was also used for a railway station built in 1914 but which was never brought into use. In April 2016 a new housing development at Backworth was started and adopted the name of Brierdene

# Königsbronn ## History There is some evidence that the area was first populated in the Stone Age. The foundations of a castle of the early Middle Ages possibly erected around 1000 AD on the site of an even earlier castle, of robber-knights, as it is being told can be found on the rock Herwartstein overlooking the valley, which was allegedly destroyed by the son of the emperor of Holy Roman Empire of medieval Germany. Below, in the valley, a hamlet called \"Springen\" was formed. In 1303, a monastery was founded (and allegedly erected with stones from the destroyed castle) for Cistercian monks. It was to become one of the most influential and wealthiest monasteries in Southern Germany. The place was renamed \"Königsbronn\" which means \"Kings\'s Spring\". In 1552, the monastery and village that had grown next to it were destroyed and a year later the area became Protestant (Lutheran). When the village was supposed to turn catholic again in 1629, the population rebelled and stayed Protestant. The monastery had been a centre of pre-industrial-age metallurgy and in 1366 had been granted the right to mine and process iron ore from Emperor Charles IV., only one year after he had given it erroneously to a local count. The monks then started what became later the industrial company with the longest historic tradition in Germany, the Schwäbische Hüttenwerke GmbH. 1651 a furnace was lit and smelting didn\'t stop until 1908, when it had ceased to be profitable. However, the business was successfully shifted to finished products, especially to calender rolls for the paper industry, which made Königsbronn and SHW famous. Two out of three state of the art calender rolls in modern paper machines worldwide have been poured in the Königsbronn foundry, which today is a part of SHW Casting Technologies GmbH, a group of foundries specialized on heavy and highly precise castings. The small but splendid rococo-style (or late baroque) town hall was erected in 1765 and gives a hint of the proud spirits of the town at the time. In 1864, Königsbronn got railway access (Brenz Railway). The railway line has been refurbished from 2003 to September 2007 to modern standards. On 8 November 1939, a bomb placed by Georg Elser, who had spent much of his life in Königsbronn, detonated in Munich and missed its target Hitler only by a few minutes. ## Recent history and present {#recent_history_and_present} After the war, many some small industrial companies in the wider area had to close, but some grew to become very successful, e.g. Voith in Heidenheim. Others moved in, e.g. Zeiss in the neighbouring town of Oberkochen. Industry has switched from heavy to high-tech and the second sector of the economy remains by far the most important, whereas climate and soil have never made agriculture too attractive in this region. ## Community partnerships {#community_partnerships} Since 1978 there is a partnership with Reißeck in Austria. ## Transport Königsbronn is tethered by the Brenz Railway Aalen-Ulm to the national rail network. Departs every hour of the Regional Express (Crailsheim-) Ellwangen-Aalen-Ulm; additionally operate daily some regional trains and a single InterRegio Express. Some of the trains also stop at the breakpoint Itzelberg. ## Educational institutions {#educational_institutions} The Georg-Elser-school is a primary, secondary and high school with \"Primary field offices\" in Itzelberg and Zang and Eichhalde primary school. In addition, in Königsbronn the \"School of Forestry Königsbronn\" \[4\] is located.

# Abraham von Franckenberg **Abraham von Franckenberg** (24 June 1593 -- 25 June 1652) was a German mystic, author, poet and hymn-writer. ## Life Abraham von Franckenberg was born in 1593 into an old Silesian noble family in Ludwigsdorf bei Oels. He attended the Gymnasium in Brieg and the University of Leipzig and looked set to become a lawyer; however, he abandoned his studies in 1617 and was drawn to more ascetic and mystical ideas. By 1622, he was familiar with the works of Jakob Böhme, and he met the mystic in person the following year. Franckenberg would continue to revere Böhme even after the latter\'s death in 1624, and was a friend to several of Böhme\'s other followers, such as the Liegnitz physician Balthasar Walther. He inherited the family estate in Ludwigsdorf in 1623, but passed it on to his brother Balthasar in exchange for the right to keep a few small rooms in the family home. He lived a very reclusive life and rarely ventured forth from this room -- only in 1634 to attend to those suffering from plague, and in 1640 to challenge the rhetoric of Georg Seidel, a Lutheran preacher from Oels whom Franckenberg regarded as intolerant. Tired of this and other confrontations, and mindful of the fact that events of the Thirty Years\' War were moving in the direction of Silesia, Franckenberg moved to Danzig via Breslau in 1641, where he lodged until 1649 with the astronomer Johannes Hevelius, who introduced him to Copernican astronomy. He spent the winter of 1642-43 in Holland, where he had several works by Böhme published. He returned home to Ludwigsdorf in 1649 and, the following year, met Daniel Czepko. He was to read Czepko\'s *Monodisticha* in 1652 and wrote two dedicatory poems for it. Around the same time, he met and began to influence Angelus Silesius. He died on 25 June 1652 and is buried in Oels; his gravestone is covered with as yet undeciphered mystical symbols. ## Works His works show ideas drawn from many sources: from the Kabbalah, Paracelsian alchemy, medieval mysticism, the medieval \'heretics\' of the Reformation, Spanish sixteenth-century Quietism, Lutheran mysticism and Pansophism. The works themselves are a mixture of ascetic-mystical treatises, such as *Schlussreden der Wahrheit* (1625), *Mir nach!* and *Vita veterum sapientium* (both 1637); others, such as *Jordanssteine* (1636) challenge orthodox Lutheranism or, as in *Oculus siderius*, discuss astronomical questions. He had a reputation as an insightful teacher, and the crux of his teachings was the unity with God based on the denial of all things worldly and of the self; particular emphasis was placed on the significance of Christ for the attainment of salvation. Like Jakob Böhme, he juxtaposed the Fall of Lucifer and Adam with attaining his salvation. *Grundlicher und wahrhafter Bericht von dem Leben und dem Abschied des in Gott selig ruhenden Jacob Boehmes*. ## *Raphael* Perhaps Franckenberg\'s most famous work - and certainly his most unusual - is *Raphael, Oder Arzt-Engel*, first published posthumously in Amsterdam 1676. The Hebrew name \'Raphael\' means \'God has healed\'. The archangel Raphael has traditionally been linked with healing and restoration, and it is clear that Franckenberg, in subtitling his manuscript *Arzt-Engel* (\'doctor-angel\', a play on *Erzengel*, \'archangel\'), is aware of this fact and wishes to make it clear to his readers. The work, ostensibly a medical tract, draws on both Paracelsian alchemy and Böhmian mysticism. There is also evidence pointing to Franckenberg\'s interest in the Kabbalah and of links with Rosicrucianism and the ideas of Joachim of Fiore

# The Capstan Shafts **The Capstan Shafts** is the musical project of American lo-fi artist Dean Wells. He has been releasing material under the Capstan Shafts name since 1999, through various indie labels such as Yellow Mica, Asaurus and Abandoned Love Records. Most of his albums are very cheap (four or five dollars) or even free. His songs are typically short, ranging in length from 45 seconds to 2 minutes, and feature a full-band sound of guitars, bass and drums, all of which are played by Wells himself. Every Capstan Shafts release to date has been recorded at home, giving the music a fuzzy lo-fi sound similar to bands such as Guided By Voices and The Mountain Goats. Despite a prolific output of recorded material (his total output amounts to ten EPs and seven full-length albums), Wells has only performed live three times. His recent album *Her Versus The Sad Cold Eventually* has led to an upsurge in media interest surrounding The Capstan Shafts; the album was given four very favorable reviews on music-news site Pitchfork Media by Matt LeMay of Get Him Eat Him. ## Appearances Dean Wells has also released a song as Vergel Tears, and has three albums under his own name. On May 2, 2008, Wells opened for The Ruby Suns and Menomena at Middlebury College in Middlebury, VT. His temporary drummer, never having played live, returned from the bar just in time as Dean was about to be forced to start without him. In 2010 the Capstan Shafts regrouped as a 5 piece band before playing shows across the U.S. east coast. Festivals dates at SXSW and CMJ followed before the band released their first studio LP \"Revelation Skirts\" for Rainbow Quartz Records.

# Rhapsodomancy **Rhapsodomancy** is an ancient form of divination performed by choosing through some method a specific passage or poem from which to ascertain information. There were various methods for practicing rhapsodomancy. Sometimes, individuals would write several verses or sentences from a poet on multiple pieces of wood, paper, or similar material, shake them together in an urn, and pick one at random. Sometimes, they cast dice on a table that was covered with verses; the one on which the die landed was said to contain the prediction. In ancient Rome, the method of sortes involved opening a book and choosing some verse at first sight. This method was particularly called the *sortes Praenestinae*; and afterwards, according to the poet who was used, such as *sortes Homerica* or *sortes Virgilianae*. ## Commonly used texts {#commonly_used_texts} ### I Ching {#i_ching} One of the most commonly used texts used to perform rhapsodomancy was the I Ching. In the 11th century, before the text was used primarily as a philosophical treatise, random chance was used to determine which texts would be selected. In the earliest of versions, turtle shells were \'read\' to select texts. In later practices of this divination, coins were tossed to select passages and texts, but this soon evolved into a more convoluted practice using milfoil stalks. Su Hsun, in his contemporary account, stated that: > \[H\]e took the milfoil. But in order to get an odd or even bunch in milfoil stalks, the person himself has to divide the entire bunch of stalks in two\...Then we count the stalks by fours and comprehend that we count by fours; the remainder we take between our fingers and know that what is left is either one or two or three or four, and that we selected them. This is from man. But dividing all the stalks in two parts, we do not know \[earlier\] how many stalks are in each of them. This is from Heaven. It has been suggested`{{According to whom|date=November 2014}}`{=mediawiki} that the evolution and convolution of the method of divination was a result of scryers attempting to add legitimacy to their work. Uniquely amongst texts regarding methods of divination, in the *Shu Ching (Book of History* or *Book of Documents*), it is suggested that the person seeking guidance reflect on what has been suggested, rather than take it at face value. It is thought that this flexibility of interpretation, as well as the suggestion that there is a moral obligation to deliberate on the findings of the scryer, that led to rhapsodomancy falling out of favour with the I Ching. ### Sibylline Books {#sibylline_books} The sibylline books, thought to have written around the 6th century BC, were used by Greek Oracles throughout the time. After these texts were burned, along with the Temple of Jupiter, in 83 BC, another collection was compiled, though that too was burned in 405 AD. The texts were used for divination in a primitive form of bibliomancy, which came much later. Though loosely described as books, the second compilation was likely written on loose leaves, or thin wood, which could then be shuffled, with texts drawn at random. It is known that the texts were mostly composed of Greek hexameter, but Cicero claimed some of the verses were in hieroglyphs or acrostic code. The divinations were well known as vague and obscure proclamations. Virgil incorporated his wariness of the prophecies into *The Aeneid*, where Helenus warns Aeneas of the unreliability of their words. ## Transition to bibliomancy {#transition_to_bibliomancy} Bibliomancy, another text-based form of divination, was first officially recorded in 1693 AD, and was mainly concerned with the Bible, rather than any variety of poetic texts. However, in their official recounting of the murder of Archbishop Sharp, the church attributes one participant\'s motivation to rhapsodomancy. In the biography of evangelist George Whitefield, a note is made of the fact that a message was sent to him by contemporary John Wesley, regarding his voyages across the Atlantic. When communicating with Whitefield, Wesley presented him with a passage pulled, after prayer, out of lots, which read; \'Let Him Return to London\'

# Buddy: The Buddy Holly Story ***Buddy: The Buddy Holly Story*** is a musical in two acts written by Alan Janes, and featuring the music of Buddy Holly. It opened at the Plymouth Theatre Royal in September 1989 before It transferred to the Victoria Palace Theatre on 12 October 1989. An early example of the jukebox musical, *Buddy* ran in London\'s West End for over 12 years, playing 5,140 performances. Janes took over the producing of the show himself in 2004, and *Buddy* has been on tour extensively in the UK since then, having played Broadway, five U.S. National Tours and numerous other productions around the world. The show was nominated for an Olivier Award for Best Musical. ## Development A late-night fan-based conversation in a bar of the Montcalm Hotel in London\'s West End in 1988, between the theatrical agent Laurie Mansfield, film producer Greg Smith and writer/producer Janes, about rock and roll musician Buddy Holly, led Janes to develop and write Buddy. A year later, supported by Paul McCartney, who owned the copyright to Buddy Holly\'s music, the show was produced at the Theatre Royal, Plymouth, before its transfer to London\'s Victoria Palace. ## Productions ### Original production {#original_production} Alan Janes worked with originating director Rob Bettinson, and originating musical director Paul Jury, to present the show for a three/week pre-London engagement in August 1989 at the Theatre Royal, Plymouth, with Paul Hipp as Buddy Holly. The first shows were beset by technical problems, but audiences were enthusiastic. ### West End productions {#west_end_productions} *Buddy* transferred to the Victoria Palace Theatre and opened on 12 October 1989. Structural engineers were called to the theatre to make sure the dress circle could take the weight as the structure bounced with the audience as they danced. Buddy transferred to the Novello Theatre, completing a total of 12 and a half years and 5,140 performances at the two theatres. In 2007, Janes brought the show back to the West End at the Duchess Theatre, where it played for a further 634 performances. The 50th Anniversary of Holly\'s death was celebrated on 3 February with a special performance incorporating several new numbers for that one night. The role of Buddy Holly was equally shared by Dean Elliott and Matthew Wycliffe, who played the role in the 2007 UK touring company. Ritchie Valens was played by Puerto Rican actor Miguel Angel, and J.P. Richardson (The Big Bopper) by actor Lee Ormsby. The 50th Anniversary Tour played concurrently across the UK and starred Oliver Seymour-Marsh and Glen Joseph as Buddy, with Chris Redmond and Dan Graham as the Crickets. ### UK national tours {#uk_national_tours} A UK national tour of *Buddy* began in June 1991 at the Theatre Royal, Plymouth. This was the first West End production to tour the UK while still playing in the West End; it set a record of 243 weeks of continuous touring, or 4 years 35 weeks on the road. Buddy has continued to tour frequently in the UK. ### Broadway production/US national tours {#broadway_productionus_national_tours} After a Toronto try-out and 15 previews, the Broadway production, also starring Hipp, opened on November 4, 1990, at the Shubert Theatre, where it ran for 225 performances. Jill Hennessy played a number of roles, including Holly\'s wife Maria Elena. The show has toured extensively throughout the US, starting with a 53-week tour in November 1991, and with the 5th tour finishing in March 2016. ### International and touring productions {#international_and_touring_productions} *Buddy* has been staged in more than 17 countries, including Australia, Austria, Canada, Denmark, Germany, Finland, Iceland, Ireland, Japan, Netherlands, New Zealand, Singapore, South Africa, South Korea, Sweden, UK and USA. Over 25 million people have seen the show worldwide. In Australia, the show\'s first tour played Sydney\'s Theatre Royal for 36 weeks before continuing throughout Australia for a further 60 weeks. The second Australian tour in 2009 ran for 39 weeks. In Germany, the Stage Theatre in Hamburg was built on land next to the river Elbe specifically for Buddy, where the show played for seven years between 1994 and 2001. ## Characters - Buddy Holly - Hipockets Duncan - Joe B.

# Buddy: The Buddy Holly Story ## Synopsis ### Act I {#act_i} The action takes place in Lubbock, Texas; Clovis, New Mexico; New York City and Clear Lake, Iowa; between January 1956 and February 1959. With the support of local Lubbock Texas radio DJ, Hipockets Duncan, Buddy and his two friends form a Country & Western band -- Buddy Holly & the Crickets -- and begin to carve out a career in music. After a difficult start at Decca Records in Nashville, they sign a contract with up-and-coming, innovative record producer Norman Petty who is based in Clovis, New Mexico. Within hours, Buddy Holly & the Crickets start to churn out hits from the recording studio built in Norman\'s backyard, among them \"That\'ll Be The Day\", which will rocket up the charts to number one in a matter of weeks.

# Association theory **Association theory** (also **aggregate theory**) is a theory first advanced by chemist Thomas Graham in 1861 to describe the molecular structure of colloidal substances such as cellulose and starch, now understood to be polymers. Association theory postulates that such materials are solely composed of a collection of smaller molecules bound together by an unknown force. Graham termed these materials colloids. Prior to the development of macromolecular theory by Hermann Staudinger in the 1920s, which stated that individual polymers are composed of chains of covalently bonded monomers, association theory remained the most prevalent model of polymer structure in the scientific community. Importantly, although polymers consist of long chains of covalently linked molecules, the individual polymer chains can often still associate and undergo phase transitions and phase separation to form colloids, liquid crystals, solid crystals, or aggregates. For biopolymers, association leads to formation of biomolecular condensates, micelles and other examples of molecular self-assembly

The archive direction suggested a blazon containing an arms *In a split sign in blue a head of a lion, behind in gold a blue grape with two vine leaves*. However, in June 1939 the NSDAP stated that it was of minor importance and not to hurry the change. So Flein remained with its previous coat of arms and confirmed this decision in 1956. This decision was confirmed on January 11, 1957, by the ministry of the interior of Baden-Württemberg. In the same year local artist Hans Epple created a drawing used by the municipality today (see illustration)

# United National Independence Party (Nigeria) The **United National Independence Party** (**UNIP**) was a Nigerian political party formed in the mid-1950s. It was made up of a group of N.C.N.C members who were opposed to some of the policies of Nnamdi Azikiwe and had formed the National Independence Party. In 1954, the National Independence Party merged with Alvan Ikoku\'s United National Party to form the United National Independence Party. The party was one of the few prominent and fairly popular groups that emerged to challenge Azikiwe and N.C.N.C in the Eastern region of Nigeria. Before the formation of UNIP, the Eastern Region was free from political competition, unlike its counterparts in the West and North, which had formidable foes to contend with

# Ilsfeld **Ilsfeld** is a municipality in the district of Heilbronn in Baden-Württemberg in Germany, on the outer edge of the Stuttgart Metropolitan Region. In addition to the village of Ilsfeld proper, it includes the formerly independent settlements of Auenstein and Schozach and some hamlets. Formerly predominantly agricultural, it has become more commercially oriented since an autobahn exit was built in the 1950s. The village of Ilsfeld was largely destroyed by a fire in 1904, and was rebuilt with public buildings in a rustic Württemberg style with Jugendstil elements. ## Geography Ilsfeld is located in the south of the district of Heilbronn, in and around the valley of the Schozach near the point where the Gruppenbach flows into it. Parts of the town fall within two natural areas: Schwäbisch-Fränkische Waldberge (Swabian-Franconian Wooded Mountains) and Neckarbecken (Neckar Basin). The town is bordered by (clockwise from the south): Großbottwar (in the district of Ludwigsburg), Neckarwestheim, Lauffen am Neckar, Talheim, Untergruppenbach, Abstatt and Beilstein (all in the district of Heilbronn). It is the seat of the *Gemeindeverwaltungsverband* (local government association) of Schozach-Bottwartal, whose other members are Abstatt, Beilstein and Untergruppenbach. Ilsfeld proper, Auenstein and Schozach are sections of the town; the first also includes the hamlet of Wüstenhausen, the settlements of Landturm and Untere Mühle and the neighborhood of Engelsberghöfe, and Auenstein also includes two hamlets, Abstetterhof and Helfenberg. Ilsfeld proper also formerly included the no longer extant settlements of Beuren, Bustatt or Boestat, Gendach, Froßbach and Seetham, and Auenstein formerly included Finkenbach (now part of Helfenberg) and Kapfenhardt. ## History ### Frankish court site {#frankish_court_site} The territory of Ilsfeld has been settled almost without interruption since the Mesolithic and Neolithic. After the Franks expanded into the area, five ancient Alemannic settlements were subsumed in a royal court location that is the basis of the present-day town. At the former settlement of Gendach, on the Schozach near Ilsfeld, there was a small motte and bailey castle, no traces of which remain. ### Border territory of Württemberg {#border_territory_of_württemberg} In 1368 Ilsfeld became the property of Württemberg; by about 1460 it had become a fief of the Vogt or reeve of Lauffen am Neckar. It was a border territory; to the north, Talheim had become the property of the Teutonic Knights, and beyond that lay for example Flein, which belonged to the Imperial City of Heilbronn, Stettenfels Castle, property of the Electorate of the Palatinate, and the County of Löwenstein. In 1450, during Count Ulrich V\'s war against 30 Swabian Imperial Cities, Ilsfeld was attacked by Heilsbronn forces; the village was laid waste, with 40 people killed and 300 head of livestock removed. In 1456 the *Württembergischer Landgraben* (Württemberg Ditch) was created as a border fortification running north of Ilsfeld, with a defensive tower, the *Landturm*, north of the hamlet of Wüstenhausen. In 1460 the Battle of Wüstenhausen took place there, with Duke Ulrich defeating the forces of Frederick the Victorious, Elector Palatine. The many battles in the 15th century are probably why Ilsfeld was surrounded by a high wall with ten towers. Ilsfeld suffered greatly in the wars of the 16th and 17th centuries. In 1519, Duke William IV of Bavaria quartered his army there; during the Thirty Years\' War there were outbreaks of plague in 1626 and 1634 and Imperial troops were quartered there in 1638/39; and in 1645 it was plundered by French, Hessian and Weimar troops. During the war the population shrank from about 1,200 to barely 100, and years after the war ended, many fields and vineyards were still abandoned. Despite a large number of settlers from Austria and Switzerland, it took approximately a century for the settlement to recover. During that time there were further quarterings of troops and required contributions. Between 1672 and 1675, Brandenburg troops were several times quartered in Ilsfeld. In 1693, during the War of the Palatine Succession, French troops used it as a base to attack Heilbronn. ### Rural district of Württemberg {#rural_district_of_württemberg} In the 18th century, there was again peace and modest growth in Ilsfeld. After the Napoleonic Wars, following which the entire surrounding area became Württemberg territory, and after a territorial reorganization of the Duchy, Ilsfeld belonged to the *Oberamt* of Bietigheim beginning in 1808, and then to the *Oberamt* of Besigheim beginning in 1810. The settlement slowly grew beyond its medieval borders, first west and east along the main street. By 1832, the town gates no longer existed. In 1844, for the first time, the number of inhabitants officially exceeded 2,000. However, poverty was ever-present until well into the 19th century. There were famines in 1816, 1831 and 1841, and between 1810 and 1890, 651 residents emigrated, mostly to America but also to Africa (the Cape Colony) and Russia (the Caucasus). Between 1889 and 1891, a road was built connecting Ilsfeld to the administrative center of Besigheim, and in November 1899 a segment of the Bottwar Valley Railway was inaugurated; the following year, this was extended from Ilsfeld to Heilbronn South. The Royal Württemberg State Railways built the station at Ilsfeld as a unified station of Type IIIa. The railroad caused Ilsfeld to develop in the early 20th century from a purely rural settlement to a bedroom community for Heilbronn, where more than 200 residents were soon working, mostly in factories such as the Ackermann plying mill, the Knorr soup factory, the Bruckmann silverware factory and the Flammer soap factory. After an electricity generating plant was built in Pleidelsheim around 1907, Ilsfeld was electrified by 1914. ### 1904 fire On August 4, 1904, approximately 420 dam2 of the town burned; 130 buildings were destroyed, including the town hall, the school, the church and 77 barns. One person was killed and 706 left homeless. The losses were assessed at 1,392,696 Reichsmarks. The fire was caused by a portable stove that children were using to bake apples and that tipped over. Firefighting efforts were considerably hindered by the different hose couplings used by Württemberg firefighting units. The fire shocked the whole of Germany; during the following days King William II visited the town, as did more than 40,000 of the curious. By August 8, the Württemberg Ministerial Division of Road and Water Construction had organized a rebuilding committee led by *Oberbaurat* Richard Leibbrand, which began by erecting a temporary barracks encampment to house the homeless over the winter. A new town plan was then drawn up: when the town was rebuilt, the main street (still the center of the town and called *König-Wilhelm-Straße* since 1906) was widened by 11 m by not rebuilding on the slope leading up to the church and instead supporting the hillside with a retaining wall, the *Planmauer*, which was extended by about 100 m. The major public buildings (town hall, church, school, teacher\'s and minister\'s residences, and the Dorastift kindergarten) were designed by the architects Paul Schmohl and Georg Stähelin in a traditional Swabian style with Jugendstil elements. By 1906, rebuilding was largely complete. Ilsfeld remained primarily rural in character until World War II; industry failed to gain a foothold, primarily because of a lack of infrastructure. In 1935 there were 335 agricultural concerns, mainly smallholdings, employing 40--60% of the residents, and 120 small businesses with a total of 220 employees. A planned post bus connection to Lauffen am Neckar, which would have enabled residents to work at the cement works, failed to materialize in 1929.

# Ilsfeld ## History ### Third Reich {#third_reich} Hugo Heinrich, elected *Schultheiß* in 1916 (his title became *Bürgermeister*, mayor, in 1932) became a member of the Nazi Party in 1934 and remained in office throughout the Third Reich; he petitioned to retire for reasons of ill health in 1937 but was unable to obtain the necessary medical certification. From 1939 on, he was also mayor of Schozach under a joint arrangement. Construction began in 1935 on the Reichsautobahn segment between Heilbronn and Stuttgart, now Bundesautobahn 81, which passes through the southeastern part of Ilsfeld. When the *Oberamt* of Besigheim was dissolved in 1938, unlike most other localities within it, Ilsfeld became part of the district of Heilbronn. During the war, Ilsfeld was at first largely spared by air raids, although surrounding localities were heavily affected beginning in 1941. After Heilbronn was bombed on December 4, 1944, approximately 600 people fled to Ilsfeld, which was already full of refugees and expellees. In the final days of the war, on April 14 and 16, 1945, Ilsfeld itself became a bombing target; about 50 buildings were destroyed and several people were killed. The town was occupied by American troops on April 20. Refugees caused the number of inhabitants to swell from 1,999 in 1939 to 2,164 at the end of 1945. ### Post-war {#post_war} After Hugo Heinrich retired in 1947, two temporary mayors were appointed, followed in 1947/48 by Gottlob Frank, who had previously acted as the mayor\'s deputy. In 1948 Eugen Härle was elected to the position; he served until 1974, from 1954 to 1972, when it was annexed by Ilsfeld, once again also as mayor of Schozach. The autobahn was not returned to service until 1950. At first Ilsfeld only had one-way access for military vehicles; in 1956 an exit was built, and in 1968--74, two rest stops. The railroad was closed in 1967; together with the proximity of the autobahn exit, this meant increasing traffic problems in the villages of Ilsfeld and Auenstein. Auenstein was helped with a bypass in the 1990s. In 1950, what is now the town of Ilsfeld had 571 farms employing 1,151 people, and 217 commercial businesses employing 448. Since the 1950s, an influx of business and industry has caused considerable development in the area, with processing soon replacing agriculture as the primary source of employment. The business district of Ilsfeld proper extends from the center of the town east to the autobahn exit, and starting with the 1952 *Kernersiedlung*, large new residential developments have appeared to the east, north, and south. The other centers within the town have also experienced both residential and commercial development. In 1987, there were 58 farms employing 203 people, and 332 commercial businesses employing 2,029. Numerous foreigners migrated to the area to work beginning in the early 1960s; in 1987, of approximately 6,200 residents, about 550 were non-Germans. In February 1970, a large section of the Planmauer collapsed; renovation lasted until 1974, and plans were made at the same time for renewal of the now aged village centre, which was carried out in the 1980s. This involved demolition and replacement of numerous old residential buildings that had survived the 1904 fire and restoration of buildings erected after the fire. ### Annexations Ilsfeld annexed Schozach on July 1, 1971. On December 31, 1973, Ilsfeld and Auenstein (including Abstetterhof and Helfenberg) were combined to form the new town of Ilsfeld. ## Governance ### Town council {#town_council} In an election on June 7, 2009, the town council was reduced from 22 to 20 seats. The mayor is also a member and presides. ### Coat of arms {#coat_of_arms} The blazon of the coat of arms of Ilsfeld is: On a field of silver, a black stag\'s antler (the Württemberg heraldic emblem) over a rooted green tree. The town flag is green and white. The tree is the ancient symbol of Ilsfeld, appearing on boundary markers since at least 1685. The stag\'s antler is the heraldic symbol of Württemberg. Official seals of Ilsfeld have combined the two since 1468 (the oldest known village seal and arms in Württemberg). The antler was originally to the right of the tree; the current arrangement was adopted in 1596. The colors are attested since the late 16th century. The arms were adopted by the unified town after the annexation of Auenstein, and were officially granted by the District of Heilbronn on January 24, 1978. ### Twinning - Ottery St Mary, United Kingdom (Since 2003) - Auenstein, Switzerland - Moşna, Romania

# FK Igalo 1929 ## Stadium FK Igalo plays their home games at Stadion Solila. Until the middle of the nineties, football ground in Igalo was among amateur-pitches like neighbouring Stadion Opačica or Stadion Bijela. But, with FK Igalo promotion to the Second Yugoslav League, on old ground location was built new stadium with one terrace and numerous pitches around the main ground.\ During the winter months, because of good climate and accommodation, the stadium is used for exhibition matches, tournaments, trainings and preparations of many football teams from the region (Montenegro, Serbia, North Macedonia, Albania, Kosovo, Bosnia and Herzegovina and Croatia)

# University of Minnesota Old Campus Historic District The **University of Minnesota Old Campus Historic District** is a historic district located in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Listed in the National Register of Historic Places since 1984, it includes a number of historic buildings that were constructed during the late 1800s and early 1900s, and represents the oldest extant section of the University of Minnesota campus. The general area was designed by landscape architect Horace W. S. Cleveland, who envisioned a park-like University. His plan, that he presented to the Board of Regents, went on to help form the Historic District. It is located directly to the north of the University\'s Northrop Mall Historic District. ## Eddy Hall, 1886 {#eddy_hall_1886} : Architect: LeRoy Buffington The oldest building within the district, as well as the oldest extant building on the Minneapolis campus. Originally built as the Mechanic Arts building, it was designed by Minneapolis architect LeRoy S. Buffington. Executed in the Queen Anne mode, the building is three stories in height on a high basement; a square tower at the northwest corner dominates the entry. It is constructed of red brick with red sandstone trim, and is essentially rectangular in plan. Dominant features include the multi-gabled roof, high double-hung windows, panels of patterned brick, and iron cresting with weather vane on the tower. Erected at a cost of \$30,000 in 1886, the building received a \$10,000 addition in 1903. The building originally housed the Mathematics, Drawing, Civil-Municipal-Structural Engineering departments, as well as testing laboratories. The Mechanic Arts building was eventually renamed Eddy Hall in honor of Henry Turner Eddy, former professor of Engineering and Mathematics and later Dean of the Graduate School. In 2011, it closed its doors anticipating a renovation to fix several issues. The building was in a state of disrepair, the top floor was roped off due to structural concerns, and the annex already had to be demolished. The University asked the state for \$21,000,000 in funding, however, a bonding bill proposed by then governor Mark Dayton did not include money allocated for the project. The renovation was snubbed and Eddy Hall has remained vacant since. ## Music Education, 1888 (demolished 2010) {#music_education_1888_demolished_2010} : Architect: Warren H. Hayes Originally the Student Christian Association building. It once housed the Child Welfare and Music Education departments. In the 1940s, an expanded entryway was added. On July 8, 2009, as part of an effort to raze obsolete buildings on campus, the University of Minnesota Board of Regents moved to demolish the building. According to the Regents, the excessive cost of renovation was the main deterrent against any reuse option. Demolition commenced in May 2010 with an expected cost of \$432,000. ## Pillsbury Hall, 1889 {#pillsbury_hall_1889} : Architects: LeRoy Buffington with Harvey Ellis Originally known as Science Hall, it was renamed in honor of Governor John S. Pillsbury during construction. Harvey Ellis, Buffington\'s assistant, was responsible for the Richardsonian Romanesque details of the design. Though Ellis was inspired by the aesthetic of Henry Hobson Richardson, the building also contains elements of the Prairie School, Arts and Crafts, Gothic, and Victorian styles. The building is built with two different colors of sandstone. The buff-colored sandstone is from quarries near Banning State Park, while the red sandstone is from the Fond du Lac formation. The clay tile roof and copper eaves serve to protect the sandstone from the infiltration of water, and they also add to the appearance of the building. Reflecting its earthen architectural elements, the building housed the Newton Horace Winchell School of Earth Sciences until 2017. The building underwent a renovation and reopened in 2022, now home to the University\'s English department. ## Pattee Hall, 1889 {#pattee_hall_1889} : Architect: J. Walter Stevens Originally known as the Law Building and erected at a cost of \$30,000, it was the first building of the University of Minnesota Law School, itself founded in 1888. The Richardsonian Romanesque-style building was later named after William S. Pattee, the School\'s first dean, and doubled in capacity from a 1905 expansion. In 1921, the School\'s dean, Everett Fraser complained that the classrooms were inadequate and that the library space was too flammable, as seen with the prior burning of Old Main in 1904. The Law School then moved to the newly built Fraser Hall in 1928, and later to Mondale Hall. Pattee Hall was left empty until 1947, when it became the home to the University Elementary School, until its departure in 1965, leaving the building vacant once again. The Institute on Community Integration occupied the building from 1985 until they outgrew the building in 2021 and moved into the Masonic Institute for Brain Development on the St. Paul campus. The Department of American Indian Studies moved into Pattee Hall in the fall of 2024 following a refresh of the building. Various symbols of the Law School still exist throughout the structure.

# University of Minnesota Old Campus Historic District ## 216 Pillsbury Drive, 1890 {#pillsbury_drive_1890} : Architects: LeRoy Buffington with Harvey Ellis Originally built as a chemistry laboratory, until the department moved. In 1914, the building was converted into a gathering space for the men\'s student union, containing game rooms, a smoking room, and billiards rooms; overall being modeled after gentlemen\'s clubs. The student union left when Coffman Memorial Union opened in 1940, and the building was later renamed to Nicholson Hall, after Edward E. Nicholson, the Dean of Student Affairs from 1917 to 1941. The building was rehabilitated with \$24 million of structural improvements and interior updates. While much of the building\'s Richardsonian Romanesque exterior was restored during the project, new Art Nouveau motifs were introduced throughout the interior. The building reopened to the public in January 2006 and is currently used for a number of classroom and administrative purposes, alongside housing the university's Cultural Studies & Comparative Literature Department and the Center for Jewish Studies. In 2019, a University task force suggested removing Edward E. Nicholson\'s name from the building, due to his anti-Semitic beliefs, along with his efforts to suppress political speech and student activism. In 2024, the name \"Nicholson Hall\" ceased use, with the building now known by its address, 216 Pillsbury Drive, until a new name is selected. ## Wulling Hall, 1892 {#wulling_hall_1892} : Architects: Allen Stem and Charles Reed Originally built as Medical Hall, it contained the University\'s Medical School. In 1906, it was renamed as Millard Hall after the Medical School\'s first dean, Perry Millard, who passed away the same year. In 1912, the Medical School relocated and the College of Pharmacy took its place the next year. The building became known as Pharmacy Hall until being officially renamed as Wulling Hall in 1942, after the College\'s first dean, Frederick J. Wulling. The College of Pharmacy moved to Appleby Hall in 1960. Today, Wulling Hall houses some offices belonging to the College of Education and Human Development, specifically the Office of Teacher Education. ## Burton Hall, 1894 {#burton_hall_1894} : Architects: LeRoy Buffington and Charles Sumner Sedgwick Named in honor of University president Miriam Burton, it was the main library building on campus until Walter Library opened in 1924. Before Burton Hall was built, the library collection was housed in Old Main. A series of fires in Old Main convinced the Board of Regents that a new, fireproof building was needed. President William Watts Folwell first consulted with LeRoy Buffington on a library design, but the Regents overruled him. After much debate between the Regents and the faculty, the design was eventually finalized. In an act of compromise, the exterior was designed by Buffington in a severe Greek Revival style and the interior was designed by Charles Sedgwick in a rather ornate Victorian style. The building originally included an assembly hall which doubled as a chapel. It is currently home to the College of Education and Human Development. ## Armory, 1896 {#armory_1896} `{{main article|University of Minnesota Armory}}`{=mediawiki} : Architect: Charles Ronald Aldrich Originally built for athletics and military drills, it replaced the University\'s old Coliseum building. When it was constructed, it was the largest building at the University. It acted as a training site during World War I and later World War II, and is now home to the University\'s ROTC program. The Armory also played a part in the football rivalry between the University of Minnesota and the University of Michigan, as the latter\'s team left a water jug in the building after a game in 1903, initiating a tradition in which the two schools play for the Little Brown Jug (which in actuality is neither little nor brown) each year. ## Wesbrook Hall, 1898 (demolished 2011) {#wesbrook_hall_1898_demolished_2011} : Architect: Frederick Corser Originally the Laboratory of Medical Science and built in the Renaissance Revival style, at the cost of \$65,000. It became the home of the Dentistry department in 1912, later housing the Department of Writing Studies and Student Veteran\'s Association. The building was renamed Wesbrook Hall after Frank Wesbrook, a professor in pathology and bacteriology and dean of the College of Medicine and Surgery. The building was demolished in August 2011 as part of the effort to get rid of buildings considered obsolete. University officials claimed the building would\'ve been too costly to renovate and that it crowded the nearby Northrop Auditorium. The site is now the location of Pfutzenreuter Plaza, named after Richard Pfutzenreuter, a longtime treasurer at the University.

# University of Minnesota Old Campus Historic District ## Jones Hall, 1901 {#jones_hall_1901} : Architect: Charles Ronald Aldrich The first home of the Physics department. The Beaux-Arts structure was rehabilitated in 2005 to provide updated mechanical systems and ADA access. Historic features such as stair treads and banisters, paneled doors, arched ceilings, and terra cotta facade were preserved during the project. The building is now home to the Freshman Admissions Welcome Center as well as the College of Liberal Arts language lab. ## Campbell Hall, 1903 {#campbell_hall_1903} : Architect: Clarence H. Johnston Sr. Originally built as the School of Mines Building until damaged by fire in 1913. The building was later used for the University High School until its relocation to Peik Hall, and ultimately became the home of the Institute of Child Development. In 2020, a \$42,000,000 grant for an addition and renovation was approved by the state, covering two thirds the cost of the project, with the rest being funded by donors. Construction began the same year. Until 2022, it was known as the Child Development Building before being officially named Campbell Hall upon completion of the building\'s renovation, after Carmen D. and James R. Campbell. ## Shevlin Hall, 1906 {#shevlin_hall_1906} : Architect: Ernest Kennedy Built on the site of Old Main, the first building on campus, after it burned down in 1904. The building was a gift from Minneapolis lumberman Thomas H. Shevlin (1852-1912), named in honor of his wife Alice Ann Hall Shevlin (1864-1910). Until it moved Coffman Memorial Union in 1940, Shevlin Hall served as the women\'s student union, providing women with basic amenities such as restrooms, and a space to engage in intellectual and social pursuits. Today, the building currently houses the Speech-Language-Hearing Sciences department and a rock with a plaque commemorating the former Old Main sits in the front. ## Folwell Hall, 1907 {#folwell_hall_1907} : Architect: Clarence H. Johnston Sr. Designed in the Jacobethan Revival style by Minnesota State Architect Clarence H. Johnston, it was built to house departments displaced after the burning of Old Main in 1904. These included the Pedagogy, Oratory, and Psychology departments, as well as the Alumni Magazine, German Museum, Gopher Yearbook, and Minnesota Daily. It is now home to a majority of the university\'s foreign language departments. The building, which received an extensive rehabilitation in 2012, is considered one of the most elaborate on campus. Its exterior features include carved brick detailing, balustrades, parapets, gargoyles, and many chimneys. Interior features include polished marble hallways, fireplaces, and ornate staircases. Folwell Hall is named in honor of William Watts Folwell, the first president of the University of Minnesota.

# Ittlingen **Ittlingen** (`{{IPA|de|ˈɪtlɪŋən|lang|Ittlingen.ogg}}`{=mediawiki}) is a town in the district of Heilbronn in Baden-Württemberg, Germany. ## History From 1355, Ittlingen was a possession of the House of Gemmingen. Their rule ended in 1806, when the Gemmingens\' properties were mediatized to the Grand Duchy of Baden. Ittlingen was assigned on 22 June 1807 to Oberamt Gochsheim, the only such district in Baden. On 24 July 1813, Ittlingen was assigned to the district of Eppingen. Following the abolition of that district on 1 April 1924, the town was assigned to the district of Sinsheim, which was reorganized on 25 June 1939 as Landkreis Sinsheim. Ittlingen expanded after World War II to its west. On 31 December 1972, Sinsheim\'s district was dissolved and Ittlingen was placed under the jurisdiction of Heilbronn. ## Geography The municipality (*Gemeinde*) of Ittlingen covers 14.11 km2 of the district of Heilbronn, in German state of Baden-Württemberg. Ittlingen lies along the northwest edge of Heilbronn\'s district, on its border with the Rhine-Neckar district to the north. The municipal area is physically located in the Kraichgau, specifically in the valley of the river Elsenz, which flows through the municipality from south to north. Elevation above sea level in the municipal area ranges from a high of 257 m Normalnull (NN) on the Lochberg, to the west, to a low of 170 m NN at the municipal border with Sinsheim. ## Coat of arms {#coat_of_arms} Ittlingen\'s municipal coat of arms displays a field of blue crossed by two yellow bars. At the center of the blazon is another, with a yellow plowshare upon a field of red. This pattern was created by the Karlsruhe General State Archives in 1910 by taking the arms of the House of Gemmingen and placing the plowshare blazon at its center to distinguish it. This pattern was accepted and a municipal flag issued by the Heilbronn district office on 1 October 1980

# Christiansen Academy **Christiansen Academy** (also known as **Academia Christiansen** or C.A.) was a private boarding school that provided an American-style education from kindergarten through grade 12 in Rubio, Táchira, Venezuela. Operated by The Evangelical Alliance Mission (TEAM), the school opened in 1952 as a University-preparatory school, primarily intended for children of evangelical missionaries in the greater region of northern South America and the southern Caribbean, but it also educated many local, national and international students. The school taught its coursework primarily in English as well as in Spanish. The academy closed in June 2001 in response to declining enrollment, as missionary focus moved away from rural areas into urban centers which offered more educational options for expatriate American children

# Kirchardt **Kirchardt** (`{{IPA|de|ˈkɪʁçaʁt|lang|Kirchardt.ogg}}`{=mediawiki}) is a town in the district of Heilbronn in Baden-Württemberg, Germany. ## Geography Kirchardt is in the north-west of Heilbronn and belongs to the outskirts of the Stuttgart Metropolitan Region. Starting in the north and proceeding in a clockwise direction, the neighbouring towns and cities of Kirchardt are Bad Rappenau, Massenbachhausen, Gemmingen, Eppingen, Ittlingen (all in the Heilbronn region) and Sinsheim (in the Rhein-Neckar region). Kirchardt is part of a unified community authority which also consists of Bad Rappenau and Siegelsbach. Kirchardt consists of the core community of Kirchardt proper, plus the peripheral communities of Berwangen and Bockschaft. Previously there was another community in the town, Lauterstein, but it was later absorbed into Kirchardt proper. The town of Kirchardt has approximately 5,500 inhabitants, of which 3,700 live in Kirchardt itself, with 1,400 in Berwangen and 400 people in Bockschaft. ## History ### Early settlement by Celts, Romans and Alemanni {#early_settlement_by_celts_romans_and_alemanni} The first signs of human activity in the area date from the Bronze Age, but the earliest settlement to be detected so far was Celtic, from the sixth century B.C.E. From 90 to 260 C.E., the occupying Romans constructed streets and buildings in various parts of *civitas alisinensis* (the area which would later become Elsenzgau) to support the Neckar-Odenwald limes. A villa rustica from that era was uncovered in Kirchardt in 1832, as well as a farmstead with a deep well. An important Roman road ran through what is now Berwangen, where a Jupiter Column was also found. With the withdrawal of the Romans from the east of Rhine and the concurrent arrival of the Alemanni, the buildings crumbled completely. ### First mention in the Codex Aureus of Lorsch, and the meaning of the town name {#first_mention_in_the_codex_aureus_of_lorsch_and_the_meaning_of_the_town_name} Kirchardt and its constituent communities, like many cities and towns in Northern Württemberg and North Baden, was first mentioned by name in the Codex Aureus of Lorsch in 791. A nun by the name of Egilrat recorded the transfer of a farm with associated land in *villa Kyrih-Hart* to the ownership of Lorsch Abbey. The name is a unique one for an uninhabited area, and means perhaps \"church in the wood\" or \"forest belonging to a church\", but more likely indicates \"the forest where the red kites live\". The first mentions of the other two communities in modern-day Kirchardt also occur in the codex, both in connection with donations to the abbey, Berwangen being recorded in 793, and Bockschaft in 829. The appellation *villa* denoted that Kirchardt was then a small community not long settled. As the earliest settled areas in Kirchardt lie on the old northern boundary with the district of Berwangen as well as the source of the Birkenbach stream, it is likely that Kirchardt was settled from the older and formerly more significant Berwangen. In the Early Middle Ages there was a road (then called the \"High Road\") connecting Heilbronn and Heidelberg which ran approximately on the line of the current Bundesstraße 39 between Heilbronn and Sinsheim. Kirchardt lay somewhat away from this historic highway, on the edge of the Krachigau-Hügel region, and was surrounded by fields, meadows, and oak forests. For centuries the population was made up exclusively of farmers, who tilled the fields and raised pigs. Acorns were an important source of fodder for the pigs, leading to the inclusion on the town crest of a single acorn from 1769 onwards. The name of the town from the thirteenth to the sixteenth century was *Kirchart* (with differing spellings), then *Kirhart* in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, before settling back on *Kirchardt* in the nineteenth century

# Gold Diggers: The Secret of Bear Mountain ***Gold Diggers: The Secret of Bear Mountain*** is a 1995 American adventure film directed by Kevin James Dobson, and starring Christina Ricci, Anna Chlumsky, Polly Draper, Brian Kerwin, Diana Scarwid, and David Keith. Set in 1980 in the Pacific Northwest, it follows two teenage girls who, inspired by a local legend, attempt to recover a fortune of gold inside a mountain. ## Plot In June 1980, teenager Beth Easton and her recently widowed mother, Kate, relocate from Los Angeles to the small town of Wheaton, Washington, where they move into Kate\'s aunt\'s farmhouse. Initially, Beth misses the city and resents her new surroundings. In town she encounters Jody Salerno, a troubled but free-spirited teenager who has a bad reputation. While riding her bike the next day, Beth is forced off the road by a pickup truck and plummets down a steep ravine, crashing her bicycle into a river, where Jody is fishing. Kate attempts to ingratiate Beth with two local girls named Tracy and Samantha. While they are picking berries at the house, Beth encounters Jody, who has been hiding in a tree and throwing cherries at them. Tracy and Samantha warn Beth against associating with Jody, but she joins her on a trek through the woods. They quickly become friends, and Jody tells Beth she has an adventure planned for the following day, the summer solstice. When Jody fails to meet Beth that morning, local cop Matt Hollinger offers her a ride to Jody\'s house. Jody\'s mother, Lynette, answers the door, appearing shaken and inebriated, and tells Beth that Jody is not home. Matt brings Beth home and realizes that he is an old acquaintance of her mother. Beth receives a phone call from Jody, who directs her into the forest outside her house. She explains that she hid from Matt and Beth because she had broken in and stolen candy from the vending machines in the local high school; she then tells Beth the story of Molly Morgan, a female miner who purportedly died in a mine collapse in Bear Mountain while searching for gold. They board a motorized boat which Jody has hidden along the river, and ride downstream and into the mountain, where she has set up a makeshift living space in the cavern entryway. When Beth notices Jody\'s bandaged shoulder, Jody confesses that Lynette and her abusive boyfriend, Ray, had gotten into a fight the night before, and that Jody may have fatally wounded him after he chased her into the woods. Beth urges Jody to go to the police, but she refuses, planning to hide out in the mountain. As a rainstorm approaches, Beth and Jody attempt to leave the cave, but a rock collapse damages the boat and pins Beth to the floor. Jody swims out of the cave and down the river, making it safely past a grizzly bear and to a road where she crosses paths with a state trooper. Beth is rescued just in time, as the water level has slowly risen inside the cave. At the hospital, Jody is confronted by Ray, who is still alive to the surprise of Jody and Beth. Kate forbids Beth to spend time with Jody, but she appears at a Fourth of July picnic and divulges her plan to return to the mountain to get the gold. Kate eventually decides to let Beth see her, and they drive to her house the next day. Inside, they find it trashed and Lynette, beaten and incoherent, and no sign of Ray or Jody. Lynette is taken to the hospital and Beth insists to Matt that they go to the mountain, believing that Ray took Jody there. Beth assists Matt to the caves, but they are separated inside. Beth finds Jody, who tells her that a drunken Ray beat her and forced her to take him to find the gold. Beth goes back to find Matt, and Jody is grabbed from behind by whom she believes is Ray---when she turns around, she finds it is an elderly woman, who then recedes into the shadows. Ray appears and attempts to grab Jody but is hit over the head with a shovel by the woman. Beth returns to find Jody and Ray, unconscious, but the woman, ostensibly Molly Morgan, has disappeared. Matt finally finds Beth and Jody and Ray is arrested. Lynette recovers in the hospital and Jody accepts her apologies. In late August, Matt arrives at Beth\'s house, and brings her, Kate, Jody, and Lynette to the courthouse, where an attorney is representing an anonymous client who has bestowed a gift to Beth and Jody. They are given two bags, each containing gold, and cheered and applauded by the town citizens, including Tracy and Samantha. ## Cast

# Gold Diggers: The Secret of Bear Mountain ## Production Though (erroneously thought to be) set in Oregon, the film was primarily shot in British Columbia, Canada, in the cities of Nelson and Pemberton. It was also shot in JANAF Shopping Center in Norfolk, Virginia. This would be the first of two 1995 films to feature actresses Christina Ricci and Ashleigh Aston Moore, as they appeared the following month in *Now and Then*, a similarly nostalgic coming of age film. ## Release The film was released theatrically in the United States on November 3, 1995. ### Critical reception {#critical_reception} Stephen Holden of *The New York Times* wrote: \"Any movie that encourages young girls to be wilderness adventurers rather than boy-crazed babes-in-waiting certainly has its heart in the right place. That\'s why it\'s sad to report that *Gold Diggers: The Secret of Bear Mountain*, a movie about two friends who impulsively trek through the Washington State rain forest in search of a mythical cache of gold, is a pallid, halfhearted affair.\" Leonard Klady of *Variety* gave the film a similarly middling assessment, writing that \"while director Kevin James Dobson has a feel for natural location, too often one simply can't fathom how characters have traveled from one location to the next. Remaining tech credits are top-notch but cannot compensate for the script's myriad inconsistencies and laughable plot twists. The picture has struck a rich vein that only the greenest of movie prospectors would fail to recognize as pyrites.\" Jack Garner of the *Democrat and Chronicle* wrote that the film \"has been directed in adequate but lackluster style by Australian Kevin James Dobson. He works well with his juvenile stars, but doesn\'t have much of a flair for action sequences.\" Marjorie Baumgarten of *The Austin Chronicle* alternately praised Ricci and Chlumsky\'s performances, and called the film a \"a better-than-average kid\'s picture.\" *The Washington Post*{{\'}}s Hal Hinson praised the film, writing: \"Though Australian director Kevin James Dobson keeps his audience involved in the dangerous task of recovering the gold, the real essence of the movie lies in the rapport between these best friends. Screenwriter Barry Glasser does a superb job of entering the world of young girls on the verge of becoming women. Or, perhaps, it\'s just that these two exceptional actresses make him look good. As the movie unfolds, the adventure plot and the intensifying drama back home intertwine nicely, and very much to the benefit of both.\" Kevin Thomas of the *Los Angeles Times* described the film as \"intelligent entertainment enlivened with first-rate performances all around\... Cinematographer Ross Berryman captures the grandeur of the film's setting, but at times Joel McNeely's grandiose score threatens to overwhelm this unpretentious picture. It's a testament to the film's sturdiness that it survives McNeely's unintended efforts to drown it.\" Roger Ebert gave the film two-and-a-half stars, noting: \"*Gold Diggers* is not my cup of tea, but it is sure to be enjoyed by younger audiences, and although I don\'t think it will hold the attention of adults, I do not require adults and children to be alike in all things.\" On review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes, the film has 50% approval based on ten reviews, with an average rating of 6.1/10 -- indicating a \"Rotten\" consensus. ### Home media {#home_media} The film was released on VHS by MCA/Universal Home Video in 1996. On November 24, 2009, Universal Pictures Home Entertainment released the film in made-on-demand DVD-R format as part of the Universal Vault Series. In 2017, Universal released it for the first time on DVD. The film was released on Blu-ray by Mill Creek Entertainment on March 9, 2021

# Costa de la Luz The **Costa de la Luz** (`{{IPA|es|ˈkosta ðe la luθ}}`{=mediawiki}, \"Coast of Light\") is a section of the Andalusian coast in Spain facing the Atlantic. It extends from Tarifa in the south, along the coasts of the Province of Cádiz and the Province of Huelva, to the mouth of the Guadiana River. A holiday destination for vacationing Spaniards, in recent years the Costa de la Luz has seen more foreign visitors, especially from France, Germany, and the UK. Increasing urbanization and tourism-oriented development of parts of the coast have had economic benefits. ## Attractions and recreation {#attractions_and_recreation} Aside from the beaches and the sunshine, there are ample opportunities and facilities for leisure activities, like fine dining, golf, kitesurfing, boating, and other water sports. The Costa de la Luz has protected natural reserves and a number of natural attractions. Among them are the Doñana National Park, where endangered species, such as the Spanish imperial eagle and the Iberian lynx (*Felis pardina*), can occasionally be sighted; the Bay of Cádiz; the steeply-pitched shorelines of the southern section of the Andalusian coastline; the salt marshes of Barbate and the seaside cliffs at La Breña (both within the La Breña y Marismas del Barbate Natural Park); and the wetlands at the mouths of the rivers Tinto and Odiel, where there is a profusion of water fowl and, in season, other migratory birds, including storks and flamingos. A further facility of interest is the atmospheric research station El Arenosillo, where sometimes rockets are launched. ## History The Costa de la Luz has a history that dates back to the twelfth century BCE. Cultural attractions include Baelo Claudia, the well-preserved ruins of a small Roman city; Cape Trafalgar, where, in 1805, in sight of this promontory, the English admiral, Horatio Nelson, defeated a combined French and Spanish fleet; and La Rábida Monastery. At the Rábida Monastery in Palos de la Frontera near Huelva, Christopher Columbus sought the aid of the Franciscan brothers, hoping to enlist them as advocates for his scheme to launch a voyage of discovery. They introduced Columbus to a wealthy local seafaring family, the Pinzón brothers, who eventually prevailed upon Ferdinand and Isabella to listen to Columbus\'s pitch for support. With royal patronage and the collaboration of the Pinzóns, Columbus was able to secure his three ships as well as local crews from the Huelva area. ## Climate Köppen-Geiger climate classification system classifies its climate as hot-summer Mediterranean (Csa)

# KMS (hypertext) **KMS**, an abbreviation of *Knowledge Management System*, was a commercial second generation hypermedia system, originally created as a successor for the early hypermedia system ZOG. KMS was developed by Don McCracken and Rob Akscyn of Knowledge Systems, a 1981 spinoff from the Computer Science Department of Carnegie Mellon University. The purpose of KMS was to let many users collaborate in creating and sharing information within large, shared hypertext, and from the very beginning, the system was designed as a true multi-user system. As a spatial hypermedia system, KMS was intended to represent all forms of explicit \'knowledge artifacts\' such as presentations, documents, databases, and software programs, as well as common forms of electronic communication (electronic mail, community bulletin boards, blogs). The central element in the KMS data model is that of screen-sized pages (called \"frames\") interconnected by links. The user had the option (at any time) of switching between a view of a single frame (good for large, landscape-oriented diagrams) or two side-by-side half-screen views (suitable for two portrait-sized pages). Frames are always fixed-size, meaning scrolling is not needed. The frame model is spatial rather than character based, so that text, graphics and images may always be placed anywhere in the frame, even overlapping one another. Another way to say this is that empty space in the frame actually denotes space, not (as in many text editors) just the absence of content. Frames being fixed in size scrolling as a form of interaction is eliminated (as the designers felt that scrolling is suboptimal) opting instead for larger aggregates such as documents and programs to be structured as hierarchies (or more generally, lattices) of hypermedia nodes. This flexibility makes it possible to create a document, search, run programs from a tree of frames starting at any frame. In KMS, links are one way and are embedded in frames. They may go from any text item, point, graphical entity, or image in the source frame to any destination frame. In addition to links, frame items can also have actions, allowing the use to activate programs that extend the intrinsic functionality of the system. A major distinction between KMS and current web practices is the distinction between regular items and \"Annotation Items\" (text items prefaced by the \"@\" characters). Annotation items have the connotation of being peripheral or meta-level, relative to the rest of the contents, making it easy (and apparent) as to what was regular content versus just notes to oneself or comments by others (including by programs). Annotation items with links thus have the connotation of being arbitrary cross-references (a la \"See Also\...\") and thus are not seen by users, and more especially agents, as part of the hierarchical structure of the hypertext. Another major distinction between KMS and current web practices is the elimination of a separate editor mode. Navigation and editing functionality is always directly available and users can edit any frame for which they have permission. Authors can even protect frames from inadvertent editing even by themselves. Older versions of frames are saved in \'comet-like\' linked list so one can see the history (and time spent) for any individual frame (and more generally, those in any tree). Finally, KMS contained a script programming language (akin to JavaScript) which enabled developers and users to extend the system beyond its current functionality. In keeping with the KMS philosophy of \'Everything a frame\' (e.g., cursors, fillpatterns, etc., are represented as frames) so programs are also represented as hierarchies of frames; KMS dynamically read and interpreted only those program frames needed at runtime. KMS was originally written in Pascal and C, roughly 300,000 lines of code in size. A more modern, Java-based follow-on to KMS (called \"Expeditee\") is being developed at the Computer Science Department of the University of Waikato in New Zealand, by Rob Akscyn, one of the original developers of KMS

# Jurassic Park (pinball) There have been **four pinball adaptations** of the film *Jurassic Park* franchise: a physical table released by Data East the same year the film came out, Sega\'s 1997 *The Lost World* which is based on the second movie of the series, a virtual table developed by Zen Studios on the franchise\'s 25th anniversary and a new physical table released by Stern Pinball a year after. All four tables behave differently. ## Original Data East version {#original_data_east_version} ### Gameplay There are 11 gameplay modes, called \"Computer Screens\". They are started by shooting the right scoop, called \"Control Room\", when it is lit. These modes are stackable (i.e., one mode can be running while another mode is in progress). The Control Room is briefly lit by the right ramp or either inlane, and is permanently lit by shooting the Power Shed (the right scoop) on the upper-right side of the playfield. - *Stampede* - *Escape Isla Nublar* - *Raptor Two-Ball*: Lights the Boat Dock (saucer at the right loop) for Raptor Two-Ball multiball. Shooting the Raptor Pit collects the ball and gives 2 more. - *Electric Fence*: You have to hit the pop bumpers a certain number of times to get Timmy off the electric fence, before he gets electrocuted. - *Spitter Attack* - *System Boot*: Shoot the Bunker, the Control Room, and the Power Shed scoops to collect a maximum of 30 million points. - *Raptors\' Rampage* - *Mosquito Millions* - *Feed T-Rex*: Shoot the T-Rex saucer to feed the \"goat\" (ball) to the T-Rex for 30 million points. - *Bone Busting* - *Light Extra Ball*: Extra Ball is lit at the Boat Docks. For the first five, it\'s earned; thereafter, a mystery score. Completing all Computer Screen modes lights the Control Room for *System Failure*, a six-ball \"wizard mode\" where all shots on the playfield are worth one million points. It lasts for 45 seconds. ## Zen Studios {#zen_studios} In the late 2010s, two additional pinball adaptations of the film were released. The second pinball adaptation of *Jurassic Park* is a virtual table developed by Zen Studios as one of three tables in the *Jurassic Park* pinball pack, designed to celebrate the franchise\'s 25th anniversary, which is an add-on for *Pinball FX 3* that was released on February 20, 2018. In addition to developing a digital pinball adaptation of the film, Zen Studios also developed another pinball table that reflects on its aftermath, titled *Jurassic Park: Pinball Mayhem*, which is also one of the three tables in the aforementioned *Jurassic Park* pinball pack, with a table based on *Jurassic World* completing the pack. All 3 of these tables were remastered for *Pinball FX*, with full release on February 16, 2023. An update on 20th February, 2024 added the John Williams Jurassic Park theme to *Jurassic Park* and *Jurassic Park: Pinball Mayhem* on both *Pinball FX* and *Pinball FX3*.

# Jurassic Park (pinball) ## Stern Pinball release {#stern_pinball_release} Stern Pinball released a third pinball adaptation of the film in 2019. Upon launch, Stern created three versions: Pro, Premium and Limited Edition. All models feature a unique spinning kinetic newton ball Jungle Explorer Vehicle, three flippers, four ramps and a custom T-Rex sculpt. Premium and Limited Edition models feature a motorized animatronic ball-eating, ball-throwing, T-Rex mechanism and an interactive Raptor Pen ball lock mechanism. The game features the John Williams Jurassic Park score. The Limited Edition model is limited to 500 units and features a numbered plaque, custom-themed backglass, cabinet artwork and art blades as well as a shaker motor and anti-reflection glass. Samples of Wayne Knight\'s voice featured in the original motion picture is sampled in the game. In August 2023, Stern announced a new limited edition version of the game called *Jurassic Park 30th anniversary*. This version is limited to 500 units featuring a brand-new exterior art package, full-color mirrored backglass, "Illusion Copper" powder-coated pinball armor, a custom designer-autographed bottom arch, inside art blades, upgraded audio system, anti-reflection pinball playfield glass, shaker motor, a sequentially numbered plaque, and a Certificate of Authenticity. Stern also updated the software for all previous versions adding multiple features including Co-Op Play mode, Team Play mode as well as new refinements and voices. ### Game overview and objectives {#game_overview_and_objectives} Dennis Nedry\'s computer virus continues to send Jurassic Park into chaos. The dinosaurs are loose on the island and the employees are in danger. The player has to rescue the staff and capture the dinosaurs and eventually stage an escape. - Shoot lit white arrows to spell MAP, then the left ramp to enter a Paddock. In any Paddock, shoot the flashing red "rescue" shots until the yellow "trap" targets light. Hit as many as required, then capture the dinosaur by hitting the yellow / green flashing shot. - Completing certain tasks lights the left target for Control Room. Three modes are available and can be chosen using the flippers and action button. - Hitting the truck three times starts a T-Rex hurry-up that leads into a Multiball. Every four times after that, it will light one of three modes at the left ramp. - Spelling C-H-A-O-S in order, then hitting the target between the bumpers starts Chaos Multiball. - Locking a ball in the center of the raptor pit, then hitting the raptor pit enough times starts Raptor Tri-Ball. - Shooting the right ramp enough times starts Pteranodon Attack. Build up a switch value, then shoot the right ramp to collect it. - If "Smart Missile" is lit at the left return lane from enough "rescue" shots, use the action button to select which reward you want, then shoot the target between the bumpers. - Hit the three purple standups, then the large standup near the side ramp for helpful supply drops and 2x scoring. Make upper loop shots to light the large standup for even better rewards. #### Skill shots and multiball {#skill_shots_and_multiball} There are various skill shots and multiballs throughout the game. The skill shot on Jurassic Park is a combo sequence: following a full plunge, the left ramp must first be shot, then the right ramp, then the side ramp, then the right orbit. Each shot in the sequence awards 2x, 4x and 6x the base value. There are also secret skill shots and the MXV skill shot. There are three different multiballs: CHAOS multiball, Raptor Tri-Ball and King of the Island multiball. #### Mini wizard modes {#mini_wizard_modes} Three mini-wizard modes exist - one for making it to the end of the map, one for playing all Control Room modes, and one for playing all T. Rex modes. Playing all three of these modes is a requirement to unlock Escape Nublar. - Visitor Center (Raptors in the Kitchen) Wizard Mode: Navigate the truck to the Visitor Center to begin. - Secure Control Room Wizard Mode: Starts upon completion of the control room modes. - Museum Mayhem Wizard Mode: Starts upon completion of the T-Rex events. #### Escape Nublar wizard mode {#escape_nublar_wizard_mode} Upon completion of all three mini-wizard modes, Escape Nublar Wizard begins. The goal of Escape Nublar is to navigate back through the paddocks to the main gate and helipad while rescuing any remaining staff and dinosaurs before the volcano erupts. This is a single-ball wizard mode where you have three "balls" (trucks) to complete the mode. Each Paddock consists of two phases: Rescue Phase and Navigate Phase. #### When Dinosaurs Ruled the Earth wizard mode {#when_dinosaurs_ruled_the_earth_wizard_mode} A super wizard mode, available at the left ramp after completing \"Escape Nublar\". It\'s a timed 6-ball multiball. ### Stern accessories {#stern_accessories} Stern offered accessories for Jurassic Park as well: - Jurassic Park topper: This topper interacts with your game by capturing dinosaurs to light a letter in Jurassic Park. Your letter progress carries over from game to game. Spell Jurassic Park for a special mode (Goat Mania). - Jurassic Park inside art blades - Jurassic Park side armor - Jurassic Park shooter knob: The shooter knob is crowned with an egg-shaped amber globe, housing a suspended fossilized mosquito

# Aldehyde oxidase **Aldehyde oxidase** (AO) is a metabolizing enzyme, located in the cytosolic compartment of tissues in many organisms. AO catalyzes the oxidation of aldehydes into carboxylic acid, and in addition, catalyzes the hydroxylation of some heterocycles. It can also catalyze the oxidation of both cytochrome P450 and monoamine oxidase (MAO) intermediate products. AO plays an important role in the metabolism of several drugs. ## Reaction AO catalyzes the conversion of an aldehyde in the presence of oxygen and water to an acid and hydrogen peroxide. - an aldehyde + H~2~O + O~2~ ⇌ a carboxylate + H~2~O~2~ + H^+^ Though the enzyme uses molecular oxygen as an electron acceptor, the oxygen atom that is incorporated into the carboxylate product is from water; however, the exact mechanism of reduction is still not known for AO. The AO also catalyzes the oxidation of heterocycles, which involves a nucleophilic attack located at the carbon atom beside the heteroatom. This means that susceptibility to nucleophilic attack of a heterocycle determines if that heterocycle is a suitable substrate for AO. ## Species distribution {#species_distribution} Aldehyde oxidase is a member of the molybdenum flavoprotein family and has a very complex evolutionary profile---as the genes of AO varies according to animal species. Higher primates, such as humans, have a single functioning AO gene (AOX1), whereas rodents have four separate AOX genes. The human population has both functionally inactive hAOX1 allelic variants and encoding enzyme variants with different catalytic activities. AO activity has been found to be much more active in higher primates (compared to rodents), though many factors may affect this activity, such as gender, age, cigarette smoking, drug usage, and disease states. ## Tissue distribution {#tissue_distribution} Aldehyde oxidase is very concentrated in the liver, where it oxidizes multiple aldehydes and nitrogenous heterocyclic compounds, such as anti-cancer and immunosuppressive drugs. Some AO activity has been located in other parts of the body---including the lungs (epithelial cells and alveolar cells), the kidneys, and the gastrointestinal tract (small and large intestines). ## Regulation The regulation of expression of AO is still not completely known, though some studies have shown that the AOX1 gene is regulated by the Nrf2 pathway. Some known inhibitors of AO are sterol and phenol compounds, like estradiol. Others include amsacrine, 6,6\'-azopurine, chlorpromazine, cimetidine, cyanide, diethylstilbestrol, genestein, isovanillin, and methadone. ## Structure AO is very similar in amino acid sequence to xanthine oxidase (XO). The active sites of AO has been found to have a superimposed structure to that of XO, in studies involving mouse liver. AO is a homodimer, and requires FAD, molybdenum (MoCo) and two 2Fe-2S clusters as cofactors. These two 2Fe-2S cofactors each bind to the two distinct 150-kDa monomers of AO. Three separate domains harbor these three requirements. There is a 20 kDa N-terminal which binds to the two 2Fe-2S cofactors, a 40 kDa domain which provides a means of binding to the FAD, and a C-terminal which houses the molybdenum. ## Role in drug metabolism {#role_in_drug_metabolism} Aldehyde oxidase is thought to have a significant impact on pharmacokinetics. AO is capable of oxidizing many drugs in the liver (such as N-1-methylnicotinamide, N-methylphthalazinium, benzaldehyde, retinal, and vanillin), because of its broad substrate specificity. AO greatly contributes to the hepatic clearance of drugs and other compounds. For example, cytoplasmic AOX1 a key enzyme in the hepatic phase I metabolism of several xenobiotics. For this reason, AOX genes are becoming increasingly important to both understand and control in the therapeutic drug industry. Pfizer TLR7 agonist program has found several techniques to switch the AO metabolism off. Examples of drugs metabolized primarily by aldehyde oxidase are Zaleplon, Ziprasidone, and methotrexate. These drugs are also metabolized by P450 enzymes, and one study could not find any known compounds metabolized purely by AO. The birth control drug Ethinyl estradiol inhibits AO, but its typical concentration is so low that the potential for drug-drug interaction is essentially zero. A select few medications have been identified as potentially significant inhibitors of AO, including Clozapine and Chlorpromazine

# Antonio Aranda **Antonio Aranda Mata** (13 November 1888 -- 8 February 1979) was a military officer who fought on the Nationalist faction in the Spanish Civil War. ## Biography Antonio Aranda Mata was born in Leganés on 13 November 1888. During the Morocco wars Aranda earned an outstanding record as an engineer and geographer. He participated in the quelling of the 1934 Asturian revolt and rose to the rank of colonel. At the beginning of the Spanish Civil War, in 1936, he was in command of the Oviedo garrison, which joined the coup d\'etat against the Republic and quickly took control of the city for the Rebel faction. Aranda then successfully defended Oviedo from \"miners\' militias\". For his efforts he was awarded the Cross of San Fernando and promoted to the rank of General. Aranda participated in several further engagements during the war including the Battle of Teruel and the Battle of the Ebro. He served as captain general of the military region of Valencia. Immediately following the war Aranda was appointed as the head of the Royal Geographical Society. In 1941 he participated in several clandestine actions in favor of the monarchy that resulted in irritating the government of Francisco Franco. He was one of a group of pro-British monarchist generals to secretly receive money from British Intelligence MI-6. He was briefly imprisoned in 1947 for two months. In 1949, Aranda, then a division general, was retired from duty by Franco. Reasons argued by commentators for the cessation include the liberal ideology reportedly espoused by Aranda, his protracted lobbying and conspirations in favour of the installment of a constitutional monarchy (headed by Juan of Bourbon), or, rather anecdotically, an alleged link to freemasonry. According to the Francisco Franco Salgado-Araújo, the latter\'s cousin Francisco Franco was convinced that Aranda was a freemason. In 1976, after Franco\'s death, Juan Carlos I promoted Aranda to the rank of Lieutenant General. He died in the Hospital del Generalísimo on 8 February 1979

# Arnaud Amanieu d'Albret **Arnaud Amanieu** (also *Arnold* and *Amaneus*, 4 August 1338--1401) was the Lord of Albret from 1358. Amanieu held lands in Gascony which by the Treaty of Brétigny (1360) were obtained by Edward III of England. Edward III appointed his son Edward, the Black Prince Prince of Aquitaine and Gascony, and in 1363 Amanieu paid homage to the two Edwards. In 1368 Amanieu in a secret treaty switched his allegiance to Charles V of France. ## Biography Arnaud Amanieu was the son of Bernard Ezi IV and Mathe of Armagnac. In 1330, Edward III of England sent men to Gascony to negotiate with the nobles. Bernard Ezi IV attempted to arrange a marriage between Arnaud Amanieu and a daughter of Edmund of Woodstock, Earl of Kent but failed. In 1363, Edward the Black Prince, then Prince of Aquitaine and Gascony, went to his province to procure the homage of his barons, chief among whom was Arnaud Amanieu. In the cathedral of Bordeaux on 9 July, the lord of Albret was the first to kneel *sans* belt and cap before the Prince and swear an oath of fealty (save his allegiance to the King of England), then to kiss a Bible and a cross, and finally to kiss the Prince on the mouth (a \"holy kiss\" signifying fellowship and peace). However, good relations did not last long between Lord and Prince. In 1368, while preparing to cross the Pyrenees to join in the Castilian Civil War, Edward demanded a contingent from Arnaud Amanieu, but the forces requested were more than the lord of Albret could suffice. Arnaud Amanieu refused, causing the Black Prince to say: Edward\'s Council also declared a *fouage*, a new tax, which was bitterly resented by the great landholders. John I of Armagnac, Peter-Raymond II of Comminges, Roger Bernard of Périgord, and Arnaud Amanieu sent appeals to Charles V of France, appeals which are preserved to this day in the *Archives Nationales* in Paris. They addressed him as the \"sovereign lord of the *duchée de Guienne* and the other lands *baillées* to the king of England by the treaty of peace\". The king of France readily received the Gascon rebels into his fold. On 30 June 1368, after Arnaud Amanieu married Margaret of Bourbon, a secret treaty was signed between Charles V, Arnaud Amanieu, John, and Roger Bernard. Charles pledged aid in the event of war and he swore never to give up his claims of sovereignty over Gascony. The lords agreed to serve Charles---for pay---in Auvergne, Toulouse, Berry, and Touraine, and to take an oath to him. The *fouage* was remitted for the next decade, unless the barons chose to reimpose it on themselves. A body of lawyers and barons was called to decide the sovereignty question and they unanimously affirmed that Charles was sovereign over Gascony. Amanieu remained close to the French monarchy until his death in 1401. ## Family His son, Charles I, became Constable of France

# Gastric erosion **Gastric erosion** occurs when the mucous membrane lining the stomach becomes inflamed. Specifically, the term \"erosion\" in this context means damage that is limited to the mucosa, which consists of three distinct layers: the epithelium (in the case of a healthy stomach, this is non-ciliated simple columnar epithelium), the basement membrane, and the lamina propria. An erosion is different from an ulcer, which is an area of damage to the gastrointestinal wall (in this case the gastric wall) that extends deeper through the wall than an erosion; an ulcer can extend anywhere from beyond the lamina propria to right through the wall, potentially causing a perforation. Some drugs, as tablets, can irritate this mucous membrane, especially drugs taken for arthritis and muscular disorders, steroids, and aspirin. A gastric erosion may also occur because of emotional stress, or as a side effect of burns or stomach injuries. See acute gastritis. ## Symptoms There is basically one symptom of gastric erosion: bleeding from the area where the stomach lesion is. Bowel movements may contain blood. Vomit may be bloody as well, but a gastric erosion may not cause vomiting. Blood may be black because it will be partially digested. Loss of blood may cause one to develop anemia. ## Risks Anemia and other problems related to blood loss may occur. Sometimes a person with a gastric erosion will experience severe bleeding all at once; red (bloody) vomiting and/or black bowel movements may occur

# Mariana crow The **Mariana crow** (***Corvus kubaryi***) (Chamorro name: *åga*) is a species of the crow family from the tropical Western Pacific. It is a glossy black bird about 15 in long and known only from the islands of Guam and Rota. It is a rare bird which has steadily declined in numbers since the 1960s. On Guam there are no remaining native Mariana Crows, the population having been decimated by the introduction of the brown tree snake. On Rota the population has declined to fewer than 200 individuals, the main threats here being the reduction of suitable habitat because of development and predation. Despite translocations from Rota to the Guam National Wildlife Refuge in the late 1990s and early 2000s, by 2011 the Mariana Crow was extirpated from Guam. Current conservation efforts on Rota include habitat protection, and a captive rear-and-release program. The International Union for Conservation of Nature has rated the bird as being \"critically endangered\". ## Description The Mariana crow is a small black crow with a bluish-black gloss on its tail, and a greenish-black gloss on its back, underparts, head, and wings. In general, females are smaller than males. An adult weighs about 9 oz and is about 15 in long. The Mariana crow has a variety of vocalizations, including two locational calls used to maintain contact between pairs, family members and flock mates. These locational calls are either a high-pitched series of one to three *caw* or *hi* sounds, or a series of longer *caw* sounds with a nasal *aaa* element to the call; the latter call may be used exclusively between mated pairs. Alarm calls are a rapid series of sharp *caw*s. The birds also make a variety of squalling, guttural sounds, which may be done either quietly or excitedly. ## Distribution and ecology {#distribution_and_ecology} The Mariana crow inhabits second growth and mature forests, as well as coastal strand vegetation, but nests only in native limestone forest. It preferentially nests in the crowns of two canopy-emergent tree species: yoga tree (*Elaeocarpus joga*) and the fig *Ficus prolixa*. The crow currently is only found on the island of Rota. It disappeared from southern Guam in the 1960s and from central Guam in the 1970s, mostly inhabiting Andersen Air Force Base. Its population on Rota has also decreased. ### Diet Extremely versatile, the Mariana crow is an opportunistic omnivore, feeding on insects, lizards, other birds\' eggs, hermit crabs, fruits, and seeds. ### Nesting The Mariana crow begins nesting as early as July and as late as May. The nest is a large, cupped platform of small sticks, lined with leaf fibers. Clutch size varies from 1 to 4 eggs, and both parents incubate the eggs, brood the chicks, and care for the juveniles even after they fledge. Parental care has been known to range from 5 to 18 months, and juveniles may take as long as 3 years before entering the adult breeding cycle.

# Mariana crow ## Status and conservation {#status_and_conservation} On Guam, the Mariana crow\'s decline is primarily due to predation by the introduced brown tree snake (*Boiga irregularis*). In spite of protection of nesting-sites by electrical tree barriers, the remaining birds are considered to be reproductively senescent. On Rota, many other threats endanger the crow, including homestead development, resort and golf-course construction, agricultural settlement, nest-predation from introduced rats, the Mariana monitor lizard (*Varanus tsukamotoi*), typhoons, predation from feral cats, disease, and competition with the black drongo (*Dicrurus macrocercus*). More recently, the brown tree snake has also been detected on Rota, likely leading to serious declines in the Mariana crow population there if the snake population establishes itself. The Mariana crow is also persecuted by residents of both islands who see it as an obstacle to development. In 1993, a National Wildlife Refuge was established on Guam to preserve the remaining forest, and birds were translocated from Rota. Biologically controlling the brown tree snake is also being discussed. Crows were transported from Rota to Guam in 2003 to assist conservation efforts though this may have had the unintended side effect of decreasing genetic variation within the species as tests have shown the Rota population is less diverse than the Guam. Formerly classified as an endangered species by the IUCN, it was suspected to be rarer than generally assumed. Following the evaluation of its status, this was found to be correct, and it is consequently uplisted to critically endangered status in 2008 as it is in immediate danger of extinction, numbering so few birds that it could be entirely wiped out by a single catastrophic event such as an epidemic of West Nile virus

# Carla Cook **Carla Cook** is an American jazz vocalist. ## Biography Cook was drawn to a life of music at an early age. As a student at Cass Technical High School she played string bass in the school orchestra, studied piano and voice on weekends, and sang in her church\'s choir. An elder brother introduced her to jazz, Cook chose voice as her instrument of choice, and she became a disciple of jazz icon Eddie Jefferson, founder of a singing technique called \"vocalese\" where a singer sings lyrics to a famous instrumental solo. During this time she and close friend Regina Carter formed dreams of becoming jazz musicians; Cook as a singer, and Carter as a violinist. At Carter\'s urging she applied to and was accepted by Northeastern University in Boston, Massachusetts. While at Northeastern she remained in close contact with Carter (who was studying at the New England Conservatory of Music and met Cyrus Chestnut, a jazz pianist studying at nearby Berklee School of Music. After graduating from Northeastern in 1985 Cook remained in Boston preparing herself for a career singing jazz in New York. In February 1990 she moved to New York and supported herself as a school teacher and book seller during the day, and singing at night. After five years she traveled to Europe and from 1993 to 1994 Cook served as a guest vocal and ensemble instructor at the Jazzschule in Basel, Switzerland, and Jazz and Rock Schule in Freiburg, Germany. She returned to New York two years later and her work included singing with Lionel Hampton\'s Orchestra and George Gee\'s Make Believe Ballroom Orchestra. In 1998 she signed with MaxJazz, a fledgling music label, and that year she released her first CD, *It\'s All About Love*, to great acclaim, including a best jazz vocal Grammy nomination. Her second CD, *Dem Bones* (a tribute to all the trombone players she had worked with in the Lionel Hampton and George Gee groups), released in 2001, was also a success, and received a glowing review from *Down Beat* magazine, the leading jazz publication. In 2002 she released her CD *Simply Natural*, which was inspired by her love for the beauty found in nature. In 2011 her rendition of Roberta Flack\'s \"The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face\" was featured on jazz percussionist Steve Kroon\'s CD *Without A Doubt*. Cook performs globally both with her own groups, most notably \"the Carla Cook Quintet\", and as a guest soloist with artists including Eric Reed and old friends Regina Carter and Cyrus Chestnut (both of whom have become luminaries in the jazz world). Her eclectic venues include the digital realm as she performs as the character Teriyaki Yoko in the Sony PlayStation game *Um Jammer Lammy*, and she has said that it is a dream of hers to appear with her favorite characters on *Sesame Street*. Cook was the headliner at the 2018 Central Jazz Festival\'s September 16, 2018, show in Somerville, New Jersey. In her songbook, you'll find elements of R&B, European classical, Motown, Blues, and Gospel. ## Discography - *It\'s All About Love* (Maxjazz, 1999) "Best Jazz Vocal Performance" \- 1999 Grammy Awards Nominations - *Dem Bones* (Maxjazz, 2001) "Dem Bones reminds us of the power that jazz has in its capacity for creating bridges to most other art forms." \- All About Jazz - *Simply Natural* (Maxjazz, 2002) ### As guest {#as_guest} - George Gee, *Setting the Pace* (GJazz, 2004) "The title of her latest MaxJazz collection reflects Cook's natural talent while reminding us that she remains delightfully free of artifice or affectation

# Kavinsky **Vincent Belorgey** (born 31 July 1975), known professionally as **Kavinsky**, is a French musician, producer, DJ, and actor. His production style is reminiscent of the electropop film soundtracks of the 1980s. Kavinsky claims that his music is inspired by thousands of movies he watched as a young boy and that he has cherry-picked the best parts from them, consolidating them into one concept. Kavinsky has been compared to many similar French house artists, including Danger and French duo Daft Punk. He achieved greater mainstream recognition after his song \"Nightcall\" was featured in the 2011 film *Drive*. His debut studio album, *OutRun*, was released in 2013. ## Biography After years as an actor, Kavinsky\'s musical career started in 2005 after being inspired by his close friends Jackson Fourgeaud and Quentin Dupieux, the latter director also included Kavinsky\'s music in his film *Steak*. During this period Kavinsky produced his first single \"Testarossa Autodrive\" which was inspired by the Testarossa model of Ferrari (one of which Vincent drives in real life). Kavinsky presented the single to Quentin, who in turn presented it to a record label he had access to because of his filming career, and Kavinsky signed with Record Makers. Kavinsky went on to release three EPs on the Record Makers label: *Teddy Boy* in 2006, *1986* a year later, and *Nightcall* with Lovefoxxx of CSS in 2010. Kavinsky toured alongside Daft Punk, The Rapture, Justice, and SebastiAn in 2007. The SebastiAn remix of \"Testarossa Autodrive\" off the *1986* EP is featured in the video games *Grand Theft Auto IV* and *Gran Turismo 5 Prologue*. Kavinsky\'s single \"Nightcall\" was featured in the opening credits of the film *Drive*, and became a major hit soon after. In December 2012 he released \"ProtoVision\" and on 25 February 2013 released his debut studio album *OutRun*. In November 2021, he returned from his seven year hiatus with the lead single \"Renegade\" from his second studio album *Reborn*. The song is produced by Gaspard Augé and Victor Le Masne. In 2024 Kavinsky performed Nightcall alongside Phoenix and Angèle at the 2024 Summer Olympics closing ceremony in Paris. ## Character history {#character_history} Kavinsky is a character made by Vincent Belorgey that has a striking resemblance to Vincent himself but the backstory does not follow anything in Belorgey\'s history. Kavinsky\'s story is that after crashing his Testarossa in 1986, he reappeared as a zombie in 2006 to make his own electronic music. Kavinsky\'s songs help tell his story; Vincent claims in an interview, \"\'Night Call\' is just about the zombie guy \[who\] goes to his girlfriend\'s house and says okay I\'m not the same, we need to talk\", referring to Kavinsky going back to find his girlfriend after the crash who has already moved on with her life. ## Equipment In an interview, Kavinsky stated that the entirety of *Teddy Boy* was written and recorded on a Yamaha DX7, which was famous and notable for the synth-pop sound of the 1980s. Kavinsky originally started making music on an old Apple computer given to him by his friend Mr. Oizo.

# Eugène Defacqz **Henri-Eugene-Marie Defacqz** (17 September 1797 -- 1 December 1871) was a Belgian liberal politician and a magistrate. ## Education He started his education at the college of Ath and completed high school in Dijon, under the direction of the famous Joseph Jacotot (1770--1840), his uncle by marriage. On 22 April 1817, he obtained his diploma of bachelor of law at the Academy of Brussels. ## Career In 1830, Defacqz embraced without reserves the cause of the Belgian Revolution. He was sent to the National Congress by the voters of the district of Ath, together with Vansnick and Secus. He played an important role in this memorable assembly due to his great knowledge of the law, his elegant elocution and his irresistible logic. He was, in 1831, one of the authors of the Belgian Constitution. When Surlet de Chokier was elected regent of the kingdom, Defacqz was named secretary-general with the ministry of Justice. But soon he gave up these functions to enter the judiciary. In 1832, he became counselor for the Court of Appeal; in October of the same year, he became a prosecuting attorney at the Court of Cassation. From 1834 to 1839, he was a professor of common law at the Université libre de Bruxelles of which he was one of the founders together with Pierre-Théodore Verhaegen. He taught there the *theory of the sources of the legislation*. In 1837, he became counselor at the Court of Cassation, and in 1866, he became its first president and remained in this position until his death. In addition to these legal functions, he occupied functions within the *garde civique* (E:civic guard), the communal council of Brussels and with the provincial council. In 1846, he took part in the creation of the Liberal Party of Belgium, which was the first political party as such in Belgium. From 1866 to 1871, he was elected member of the Royal Academy of Belgium, and he was a director of the class of literature of the academy. He was also a member of the Company of the men of letters of Leyde and the Company of sciences, arts and the letters of Hainaut. He was also a freemason, and Grandmaster of the Grand Orient of Belgium (1842-1854). In 1850 he became honorary member of the Masonic Lodge *Minerva zu den drei Palmen* Leipzig. At the political level, Eugene Defacqz defended mainly, on the one hand the lowering of the taxable quota and an electoral reform in favor of the average and lower middle class and on the other hand the state education and separation on all levels of the State and the Church. He published in particular: - Ancien droit Belgique (1875), - Des corvées et des banalités seigneuriales, - Recherches sur les anciens impôts et spécialement sur les tailles réelles, - De la paix du sang, - De quelques partages forcés des fruits de la terre dans les anciennes coutumes belgiques, - Aperçu de la féodalité. In 1845, the Flemish musician and freemason Charles-Louis-Joseph Hanssens composed in 1845 a cantata for Eugene Defacqz. There exists in Brussels a street Eugene-Defacqz. The town of Ath honours him in several ways: a statue in the court of the administrative Center (it was before on the town square); a street bears its name; an extra (actor) impersonates him on the chariot of the city during the procession of the *Ducasse of Ath*

# Sayward-Wheeler House \[\[Image:Sayward Wheeler House, York Harbor ME.jpg\|thumb\|right\|250px\| Sayward-Wheeler House \]\] **The Sayward-Wheeler House** is an American historic house museum in York Harbor, Maine. It was built about 1718, and overlooks the York River. it was the home of Jonathan Sayward, a local merchant and civic leader, who remodeled and furnished the house in the 1760s according to his own conservative taste., Sayward participated in the 1745 siege of the French fortress at Louisbourg, Nova Scotia, served in the Massachusetts legislature, and, despite outspoken Tory views, retained the respect of his neighbors during the American Revolution. After his death, his heirs made few changes to the house. In part, this was due to the depressed economy following Thomas Jefferson\'s trade embargo of 1807, but the family\'s reverence for its founding patriarch was an equally important factor in preservation. As early as the 1860s, Sayward\'s descendants opened the house to visitors to show how their forebears had lived in bygone colonial days. In the early 20th century, the house was refurbished for use as a summer residence, with new wallpaper and white-painted woodwork, but the original furnishings and family portraits remained in place. Today, the house is owned and operated as a historic house museum by Historic New England

# Alvan Ikoku **Alvan Azinna Ikoku** `{{IPAc-en||audio=Ig-Alvan Azinna Ikoku.ogg}}`{=mediawiki} (August 1, 1900--November 18, 1971) was a Nigerian educationist, statesman, activist and politician. ## Life Born on August 1, 1900, in Amanagwu Arochukwu, in present-day Abia State, he was educated at Arochukwu Government Primary School from 1911 to 1914. From 1915 to 1920, he attended Hope Waddell College, Calabar where he was a student under James Emmanuel Aggrey and was classmates with Akanu Ibiam and Eyo Eyo Esua. In 1920, he received his first teaching appointment with the Presbyterian Church of Nigeria and the Church of Scotland at Itigidi. Two years later, he became a senior tutor at St. Paul\'s Teachers\' Training College, Awka, Anambra State. While teaching at Awka, Ikoku earned his University of London degree in Philosophy in 1928 through its external program. In 1932, Ikoku established a Co-Educational Secondary School in West Africa: the Aggrey Memorial Secondary School, located in Arochukwu and named after his mentor James E.K. Aggrey, an eminent Ghanaian educationist. In 1946, after several constitutional changes allowing more Nigerians in the legislative chambers, he was nominated to the Eastern Nigeria House of Assembly and assigned to the ministry of education. In 1947,he became part of the Legislative Council in Lagos as one of three representatives of the Eastern Region. Ikoku fostered considerable government interest in the Nigeria Union of Teachers (NUT), becoming instrumental in the Legislative Council\'s acceptance of 44 NUT proposals amending various educational ordinances. He did encounter resistance through much of the 1950s, when the Colonial Government repeatedly rejected his NUT recommendations to introduce uniform education in Nigeria. After national independence, Ikoku and his union were vindicated, when these recommendations became the basis for education policy in the new nation. In 1962, he called for an \'Education Bill of Rights\' for primary school education to be free for six years nationwide in Nigeria. This was later accepted by the Federal Military Government as from 1976. Today free education to all primary school has been granted. Dr Ikoku still remains a great icon in Nigerian academic and educational development and one of the most outstanding educationists ever had in Nigeria. Upon retiring from government politics, Ikoku served on various educational bodies in the country. He was a member of the West African Educational Council (WAEC) and the Council of the University of Ibadan as well as Chairman, Board of Governors of the Aviation Training Centre. ## Honours Honours for his contribution to education in Nigeria include an honorary Doctorate in Law (1965) at a special convocation of the University of Ibadan, the establishment of the Alvan Ikoku Federal College of Education, a major road, Alvan Ikoku Way, in Maitama, Abuja (Capital of Nigeria) and his commemoration on a bill of Nigerian currency, the Ten Naira note. He died on November 18, 1971. He is also featured in the 10 Naira banknote since 1979

# Bernard Ezi II d'Albret **Bernard Ezi II** (Ezi is also spelled *Aiz*) was the Lord of Albret from 1324 to 1358 and the son of Amanieu VII. In 1330, Edward III of England sent men to Gascony to negotiate with the nobles. Bernard tried to negotiate a marriage between his eldest son and heir Arnaud Amanieu and a daughter of Edmund of Woodstock, 1st Earl of Kent, but the plans fell through. Bernard was nonetheless granted money and lands. In 1337, Bernard and Oliver of Ingham were appointed lieutenants of the king of England in Gascony. This post was primarily military in nature. Subsequently, he proved to be one of the most loyal Gascon barons to the English cause. Philip VI of France found it impossible to win him over even with bribes. In 1351, his second son Bernard was betrothed to Isabella, eldest daughter of Edward III. The marriage never took place, however, due to Isabella having changed her mind prior to her departure for Gascony. He was married to Mathe, daughter of Bernard VI of Armagnac

# Winslow Crocker House **Winslow Crocker House** is a historic house in Yarmouth Port, Massachusetts, built circa 1780. In 1936, Mary Thacher, an avid collector of antiques, moved the house of a wealthy 18th-century trader and land speculator, Winslow Crocker, to its present location. Thacher remodeled the interior in order to provide an appropriate early American backdrop for the display of her collection. Woodwork was stripped, smaller-paned windows installed, and a fireplace rebuilt to contain a beehive oven. The result is a colonial Cape Cod house with a 20th-century flavor. Thacher\'s collection of furniture, accented by colorful hooked rugs, ceramics, and pewter, presents a thorough survey of early American styles, from Jacobean, William and Mary, and Queen Anne to Chippendale. Today the house is owned and operated as a historic museum by Historic New England

# History of the Jews in Oman right\|framed\|Geographic location of Oman right\|framed\|Map of Oman The **history of the Jews in Oman** reaches back to the 800s. There was a Jewish presence in Oman for many centuries; however, the Jewish community of the country is no longer in existence. ## Ishaq bin Yahuda {#ishaq_bin_yahuda} The documented Omani Jewish community was made famous by Ishaq bin Yahuda, a merchant who lived in the 9th century. Bin Yahuda lived in Sohar, and sailed for China between the years of 882 and 912 after an argument with a Jewish colleague, where he made a great fortune. He returned to Sohar and sailed for China again, but his ship was seized and bin Yahuda was murdered at the port of Sumatra. ## Benjamin of Tudela visits Muscat {#benjamin_of_tudela_visits_muscat} A historical journey to visit far-flung Jewish communities was undertaken by Rabbi Benjamin of Tudela from 1165 to 1173 that crossed and tracked some of the areas that are today in the geographic area of Oman. His trek began as a pilgrimage to the Holy Land. He may have hoped to settle there, but there is controversy about the reasons for his travels. It has been suggested he may have had a commercial motive as well as a religious one. On the other hand, he may have intended to catalogue the Jewish communities on the route to the Holy Land so as to provide a guide to where hospitality may have been found for Jews travelling to the Holy Land. He took the \"long road\" stopping frequently, meeting people, visiting places, describing occupations and giving a demographic count of Jews in every town and country. One of the known towns that Benjamin of Tudela reported as having a Jewish community was Muscat located in the area of Oman in the northern part of the Arabian Peninsula. ## Later community {#later_community} In the mid-19th century, the British Lieutenant James Raymond Wellsted documented the Jews of Muscat in his memoirs *Travels in Arabia, vol. 1*. He mentions that there are *\"a few Jews in Muskat (sic), who mostly arrived there in 1828, being driven from Baghdad\...by the cruelties and extortions of the Pacha Daud.\"* He also notes that Jews were not discriminated against at all in Oman, which was not the case in other Arab countries (they did not have to live in Ghettos, nor identify themselves as Jews, not walk in the road if a Muslim was walking on the same street, as was the case in Yemen). The Jews of Muscat were employed mostly in the making of silver ornaments, banking, and liquor sale. Despite the lack of persecution in Oman, the community is believed to have disappeared before 1900. During World War II, a Jewish American Army enlisted man, Emanuel Glick, encountered a small community of Omani Jews in Muscat, but this community consisted mostly of recent migrants from Yemen. ## Modern politics {#modern_politics} Omani officials have begun to reach out to Jewish American and Israeli leaders. In 2008, the American Jewish Committee hosted a meeting at which: \"Israeli and Omani leaders gathered at AJC to celebrate the tenth anniversary of the Middle East Desalination Research Center, one of the success stories of efforts to deepen Arab-Israeli cooperation. Speakers include Sayyid Badr, secretary-general of the Foreign Ministry of Oman; Israeli Foreign Minister Tzipi Livni; and Charles Lawson of the U.S. State Department.

# Dettenheim **Dettenheim** (South Franconian: *Deddene)* is a municipality in the district of Karlsruhe in Baden-Württemberg in Germany. ## Geography The city of Dettenheim consists of the former municipalities **Liedolsheim** and **Rußheim (Russheim)**. Liedolsheim includes the village of Liedolsheim and the inn and farm of Dettenheim. Rußheim includes the village of Rußheim, the site of a former RAD camp, and houses, grinding mill, public low-income housing estate, and lumber mill. In the area of Liedolsheim are the former settlements of **Nackheim** and **Schure**. ## History In ancient times various German tribes inhabited the land along the banks of the river Rhine. ### Alt-Dettenheim {#alt_dettenheim} The name Dettenheim goes back to an ancient village founded about 788 on the present-day western boundary of the municipality, located directly beside the river Rhine. The village was destroyed during the Thirty Years War (1618-1648), then rebuilt. Over the decades of the 18th century the course of the Rhine moved east, flooding the little community more frequently. (The Rhine has since been changed to the west in its course so that in 2000 the old settlement was a few hundred meters from the Rhine). Subsequently in 1813 all the villagers migrated about sixteen kilometers east southeast, entered the boundaries of what was then *Altenbürg*, and founded the village and church of *Karlsdorf*---now part of the municipality of Karlsdorf-Neuthard. Because Karl, Grand Duke of Baden, had granted approval for the move, the new settlement was named in honour of him. Today the old Dettenheim is called **Alt-Dettenheim**, which consists of only a few houses, including the Gasthaus Löwen (The Lion Guesthouse), rest building, a former brickworks and a memorial boulder. Alt-Dettenheim is a hamlet so is now within one of Dettenheim\'s two districts. ### Liedolsheim Liedolsheim is located at Latitude/Longitude: N 49° 9\' 31.50\" E 8° 25\' 19.99\" (49.15875, 8.42222). In the tumultuous time of the short lived Weimar Republic, Liedolsheim was an early stronghold of the Nazis. In the mid-1920s, agriculture dominated Liedolsheim; about 3% of the labor force were industrial workers in Karlsruhe and Hochstetten, or were employed at a local brickyard. Around 84% of farmers cultivated an area of less than two hectares and were therefore on additional farms as day laborers or relied on local trade. According to historian Kurt Hochstuhl, agriculture and handicrafts were exposed to a particular economic pressure, so that the \"fear of proletarianization led\" to a \"collective mental state\", \"which could easily be exploited for political purposes\". The oldest local Nazi Party group in Baden, the Liedolsheimer group arose from a folkish \"reading club for race and the German folk\" in 1920 which German Nationalists protected and Trutzbund joined. After its ban in July 1922, the club constituted as a local branch of the Nazi party, which was later also banned in Baden. In July 1923, twenty-four Liedolsheimer residents - including the brothers Albert and Robert Roth and a village teacher named August Kramer - drove to Munich, officially to attend a gymnastics festival participate. In Munich there was a meeting with Hitler in which the formal recording of the Liedolsheimer group was arranged in the party. A \"Schlageter celebration\" declared Meeting of National Socialists in Liedolsheim in the same month had a police operation that resulted in the arrest of the brothers Roth failed in the face of their popular support. In the general election in May 1924 a Nazi Party associated organization, the Völkisch Social-block, received 51.9% of the vote in Liedolsheim and 6.5% overall. In December 1924 35.9% of the voters voted for the Deutschvolkische Nazi Party, voting for Robert Roth. In all future elections until 1933, at least one third of the voters decided for the Nazis. In the mayoral election in 1925, there were National Socialists provoked riots in which the Nazi Party member Gustav Kammerer was shot. After a major fire in which several houses and several barns were destroyed in August 1927, Hitler visited Liedolsheim. ### Rußheim Since at least 1653 Rußheim has been a community. It is located at Latitude/Longitude: N 49° 11\' 4.99\" E 8° 25\' 19.99\" (49.18472, 8.42222). The *Rußheimer Altrhein-Elisabethenwört* is a great nature area, with peaceful walking trails and meandering bicycle paths. Photographers and painters frequent the area. ### Liedolsheim-Rußheim renamed Dettenheim {#liedolsheim_rußheim_renamed_dettenheim} On January 1, 1975, the municipalities of Liedolsheim and Rußheim were merged in the course of municipal reform to become the community of **Liedolsheim-Rußheim**. For simplicity the new municipality was renamed Dettenheim on 1 January 1978 because the lengthy name Liedolsheim-Rußheim had been found to be disadvantageous and the historical name Dettenheim was preferred versus possible artificial names. The previous separation of Dettenheim is the reason that its districts have different area codes.

# Kürnbach **Kürnbach** is a municipality in the district of Karlsruhe in southwestern Baden-Württemberg. This historic wine village features half timbered houses and lies around 60 kilometers northwest of Stuttgart. The village was once owned by two states and governed by three administrations, making it a constitutional rarity in Germany. Today it is known for its Schwarzriesling, or Black Riesling, which is actually a type of Pinot Noir. ## Geography ### Location The historic wine village of Kürnbach, known as the Black Riesling village in the Kraichgau hill country, is one of the few communities in Germany with a history of shared governance. It is located in the northwestern Stromberg-Heuchelberg Nature Park near Zabergäu in the valley Humsterbaches. The Humsterbach was dammed as a retention basin east of the village next to Schlosswiesensee. To the west, the landscape opens up to the typical cultivated hill country of Kraichgau, while to the east a large contiguous forest area of Stromberg-Heuchelberg nature park begins. ### Constituent communities {#constituent_communities} The municipality of Kürnbach includes the Aussiedlerhöfe Heiligenäcker and the estates of Humstermühle, Klostermühe, and Rohrmühle. ## History ### Middle Ages {#middle_ages} In the time of Charlemagne there already stood a wooden church in Kürnbach, which was later replaced by a Romanesque stone building. The oldest surviving reference to Kürnbach dates back to 1278. It is a goods list of the monastery of Weissenburg. The document indicates that Kürnbach was already in the possession of the Benedictine monastery. About 100 years later, the name of a noble family of Kürnbach appears for the first time. In 1543 Kürnbach got the market right. ### Condominium The homeland poet Samuel Friedrich Sauter referred to Kürnbach as \"\... this market town of two states, divided into Hesse and Baden...\". Thus the condominium Kürnbach offers a constitutional rarity. Two-thirds of the town belonged to the county Hesse and one-third to the Duchy of Württemberg (and from 1810 to the Grand Duchy of Baden). The village was divided into two states but had no border. Nationality was assigned based on specific inhabited houses, which means that a resident\'s citizenship could change with the purchase of a particular house. Around 1300, two-thirds of Kürnbach became a fief of the Counts of Katzenlnbogen. Engelhard von Liebenstein pledged the other part of the village to the Duchy of Württemberg in 1320. In 1479, the Counts of Katzenlnbogen were inherited by the Landgraves of Hesse. Kürnbach now belonged two-thirds to the county Hesse and one-third to the Duchy of Württemberg, forming a condominium. Individual cultivated land was assigned to one of the two dominions but could change these as well. Therefore, there were three different administrations, pertaining respectively to Hesse, Württemberg (later Baden) and the condominium as a whole. After the fractional division of land, the Hessian proportion came to the county Hesse-Darmstadt. With the peace of Schönbrunn, the Württemberg proportion came to the Grand Duchy of Baden. Kürnbach formed an enclave in Baden state territory and bordered the rest of the Kingdom of Württemberg. In 1835, a separate municipal code was issued. There were two mayors elected for a six-year term, and each mayor chaired the council for three years and ran his own registry office. Three municipal calculations had to be conducted: one Baden, one Hessian and one for the condominium, with two different financial years on two different legal bases. The residents of Kürnbach profited from this, because they paid less than \"true\" Badeners or Hesse. In addition, during the 19th century, Hesse consistently resisted ceding rights in Kürnbach to Baden. After the founding of the Reich in 1871 and the subsequent legal unification, the constitutional construct Kürnbach in fact appeared more abstruse and the privileges of the \"tax haven\" were reduced. Despite Kürnbachers\' resistance, a state treaty between the two states was concluded on May 11, 1903, in Heidelberg. It was determined that Kürnbach would belong to the Grand Duchy of Baden from 1 January 1905. In exchange, the Grand Duchy of Hesse received the enclave Michelbuch and almost 300 ha of Baden forest near Heddesbach. ### Emigration to America {#emigration_to_america} In the middle of the 19th century, the poverty rate was particularly high. In addition to poor harvests, there were many wine-losing years, which led to a wave of emigration to America. The most famous Kürnbacher was John Adam Treutlen, who later became governor of Georgia. Other well-known emigrants are Blickensdörfer, Pfeiffer, Krämer and Weisert. ### 20th century {#th_century} The restoration of the village began in 1965. From this year, Kürnbach belonged first to the district office Bretten, then to the district Sinsheim, which was dissolved in 1973. Since then, the village has been assigned to the district of Karlsruhe. ## Religion Since the Reformation Kürnbach is predominantly evangelical. In addition to the parish of the regional church there is also a Protestant-Methodist and a new Apostolic congregation. Roman Catholic faithful are cared by the community in Oberderdingen-Flehingen. Every religious community has its own church in the village.
