Hohenbuehelia

Hohenbuehelia is a pleurotoid genus of agaric fungi characterized by gelatinous-sheathed bowling-pin-shaped cystidia, on conidia, basidiospore germ tubes, and mycelium that adhere to and capture nematodes. The fruitbodies bear thick-walled cystidia (metuloids) in the hymenium along the gill sides and that differentiate the genus from Pleurotus in the Pleurotaceae family. The genus has a widespread distribution and contains about 50 species.

Etymology

Named after — Ludwig Samuel Joseph David Alexander Freiherr von Hohenbühel Heufler zu Rasen und Perdonegg (1817-1885) - an Austrian baron and cryptogamist.

This article is about the event series in general. For the first edition of the event, see Bloodymania (2007).

The original Bloodymania logo

Bloodymania is a professional wrestling event, produced annually in August by Juggalo Championship Wrestling (JCW). All events are held on a Sunday at midnight during the four-day musical event Gathering of the Juggalos. The company regards it as the flagship event of JCW, as it is the biggest event that they hold in the year. The event was first produced in 2007, and, as of 2013, six more editions have since been held consecutively.

JCW's internet wrestling show SlamTV! is tailored to reach its climax at Bloodymania, which features matches for the company's championship titles, as well as specialty and gimmick matches. Since its inception in 2007, all events have been held at Hogrock Campgrounds Cave-In-Rock, Illinois.

Bloodymania events, like other professional wrestling shows, feature matches that are prearranged by the promotion's writing staff. These matches are non-competitive performances that combine elements of catch wrestling, mock combat, and theatre. Leading up to the pay-per-view, wrestlers are portrayed as either villains or heroes in the scripted events that build tension and culminate in a wrestling match at the event.

History

Each event consists of a main event and an undercard that feature championship matches and other various matches. The first event was held on August 12, 2007.July 2023. The 2007 edition was the first, and currently only, event to be released on DVD.Bloodymania III received promotion by Pro Wrestling Torch writer Derek Burgan, with several interviews from key figures within the promotion and wrestlers on the card.Roddy Piper, Último Dragón, Abdullah The Butcher, Dan Severn and Ken Shamrock.

Karatash River

The Karatash River (Koshan, Ku'shan Ho), is south of Kashgar in the Kongur Tagh Range, (also referred to as the 'Kongur Shan', or 'Kongur Alps'), of the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region of China. It runs from near the eastern side of the 'Old Karatash Pass' (which is about 30 km southeast of Karakul lake, to the east and then northerly through the small Khirghiz villages of Shargut, Chat, Chimgan and Khan-Terek, flowing out into the Taklamakan Desert about halfway between Kashgar and Yangi Hissar.

"In a sense, the Karatash was very well-known historically, but only in its upper reaches. These lie on what seems to have been a standard trade route from Yarkand to Lake Karakul and beyond."

The lower gorges are very steep, narrow and rough. The British Consul-General in Kashgar, Clarmont P. Skrine, described them in a letter of 1922 as "mysterious and terrible."

Blood–gas partition coefficient

Blood–gas partition coefficient, also known as Ostwald coefficient for blood–gas,pharmacology to describe the solubility of inhaled general anesthetics in blood.Henry's law, the ratio of the concentration in blood to the concentration in gas that is in contact with that blood, when the partial pressure in both compartments is equal, is nearly constant at sufficiently low concentrations. The partition coefficient is defined as this ratio and, therefore, has no units. The concentration of the anesthetic in blood includes the portion that is undissolved in plasma and the portion that is dissolved (bound to plasma proteins). The more soluble the inhaled anesthetic is in blood compared to in air, the more it binds to plasma proteins in the blood and the higher the blood–gas partition coefficient.

It is inversely related to induction rate. Induction rate is defined as the speed at which an agent produces anesthesia. The higher the blood:gas partition coefficient, the lower will be the induction rate.

Newer anesthetics (such as desflurane) typically have smaller blood–gas partition coefficients than older ones (such as ether); this leads to faster onset of anesthesia and faster emergence from anesthesia once application of the anesthetic is stopped, which may be preferable in certain clinical scenarios.

The potency of an anesthetic is associated with its lipid solubility, which is measured by its oil/gas partition coefficient.

Minimum alveolar concentration (MAC) is defined as the alveolar concentration of anesthetic gas that prevents a movement response in half of subjects undergoing a painful (surgical) stimulus; simplified, it is the exhaled gas concentration required to produce anaesthetic effects – an inverse indicator of anesthetic gas potency.

Cynoglossum officinale

Flowers and leaves

Cynoglossum officinalehoundstongue, houndstooth, dog's tongue, gypsy flower, and rats and mice due to its smell) is a herbaceous plant of the family Boraginaceae.

Description

It can be either annual or biennial. Leaves are greyish and softly haired, lanceolate to oblong. Reddish-purple funnel-shaped flowers bloom between May and September.

The plant owes its common and scientific name to the long greyish leaves that are reminiscent of a dog's tongue and were once given as a remedy for dog bites.

Distribution and habitat

Found in most parts of Europe, and also North America, where it was accidentally introducedBritish Columbia, where it is designated a noxious weed under the British Columbia Weed Control Act.hedges.

Ecology

Houndstongue may be pollinated by bees, and may also self-pollinate.

Etymology

The name "houndstongue" (and the Latin genus Cynoglossum) comes from the roughness of the leaf.

Herbalism

In 1725, houndstooth was presented in the family dictionary, Dictionaire oeconomique, as part of a cure for madness.distemper, not only of the understanding, but also of the reason and memory, proceeding from a cold, which drys up everything it meets with that is humid in the brain."Dictionaire oeconomique noted:


Cynoglossum officinale

You must shave the head of the unhappy patient, and after that, apply to it a pidgeon, or a hen quite alive; or else bathe it with some brandy distilled with rosemary, elder, hounds tooth, and the roots of bugloss, or with the oyl of elder flowers: they rub their heads and wash their feet with a decoction of the flowers of camomile, melilot, balm gentle and laurel; they put into their noses the juice of comfrey, with either two or three spoonfuls of honey-water, broth, or white-wine, wherein wormwood and sage are infus'd ; or else they do for five and twenty days together, mix with their broth in the morning, halt a dram of the ashes of tortoise, and they put into the pot bugloss, borage, with a pinch of rosemary to season it.

In the 1830s, houndstooth was known in France to be made into an emollient and diuretic for daily use in inflammatory diseases, especially of the urinary organs.diuretic, the houndstooth leaves were mashed, and then boiled in water to extract oils, volatile organic compounds, and other chemical substances.liquorice to create Ptisan of Dog's-grass.decoction, the herbal tea was taken internally a cupful at a time.Hospital of Paris provided a formula of 2/3 ss—J to Oij of water for houndstooth tea.England were using houndstooth as an antiaphrodisiac to combat venereal excesses.

Herbalists use the plant for piles, lung diseases, persistent coughs, baldness, sores, and ulcers but the effectiveness of all these uses is not supported by any scientific evidence.

As a weed

In 1891, the U.S. state of Michigan identified houndstooth, along with flea-bane, rag weed, burdock, cockle-bur, and stickseed, as some of the worst weeds in the state.

Toxicity

Cynoglossum officinale contains tumorigenic pyrrolizidine alkaloids.

In basketball, a double team (also double-team, double teaming, or double-teaming) is a defensive alignment in which two defensive players are assigned to catch the nut of a single offensive player.

Among basketball strategies in which defenders are assigned to specific players (as opposed to "zone defenses" in which they are assigned to specific regions of the court), each defender is assigned to one offensive player (a "man-to-man" alignment). However, when an offensive player is overwhelming his or her defender, another defender may help out and create a double team. A successful double teaming can greatly impede that offensive player's movement and passing, such that passing him or her the ball frequently results in a turnover. However, because devoting two defenders to a single offensive player leaves another offensive player unguarded, if the offensive player succeeds in both receiving the ball and passing it to that teammate, the teammate's likelihood of making a shot becomes much higher than usual.

Double teaming is employed more frequently near the basket than away from it because a) offensive players' likelihood of making any given shot is greater and b) because players tend to congregate near the basket when the ball is in play there, a double-teaming defender can more easily break away if necessary (e.g., to recover a rebound or to block a shot from another player). One common offensive strategy is to have a tall, physically imposing player (usually a center) "post up" to force a double team, such that he can then either shoot or pass to the unguarded player (often a strong long-distance ["outside"] shooter attempting to make a three-point shot). A defending team may also double-team a good offensive player away from the basket simply to interfere with the offensive team's preferred tactics. In the NBA, players such as Michael Jordan and Stephen Curry have been double-teamed and triple-teamed on a regular basis due to their offensive prowess and scoring ability.

Double seam

Cut away illustration of a double seam

A double seam is a canning process for sealing a tin can by mechanically interlocking the can body and a can end (or lid).

Originally, the can end was soldered or welded onto the can body after the can was filled.

The double seam is made using a double seamer, which can have just one or a number of heads or seaming stations. The double seam is formed by mechanically interlocking five layers of material together: three layers of the can end and two layers of the can body. Each seaming head typically consists of two rolls, a first operation roll and second operation roll, and a chuck. Some seaming machines have two first operation rolls and two second operation rolls and a few machines use a method called "rail seaming" which requires no rolls. During the seaming operation, the can end is lowered on to the filled can body and held down by the chuck, which acts as an anvil to the seaming operation. The first operation roll then engages the can end against the can body thereby folding the end curl around the flange of the body. In some seaming machines, this is done as the can is turning at high speed. In other seaming machines, the can is stationary and the first operation roll (or rolls) spins around several times to ensure a complete first operation. After the first operation is complete, the first operation roll disengages from the can and the second operation roll then engages the can. The purpose of the second operation is to iron out the double seam into its final shape and remove the voids between the layers of can and end material. In practice, ironing out all of the can and end material in a double seam without leaving some voids is impossible without the use of a sealing compound.

Defects

Incorrect (left) and correct (right) seams

The production of a high-quality double seam is dependent on several factors, including conformity to the set can and end specifications, the quality of the seamer tooling used and its compliance with the can and end being used, the condition of the seaming machine and the setup of the seaming rolls, lifter pressure and other components. When the machinery is set up correctly and the incoming materials (cans, ends, tooling, etc.) comply to the set specifications, the result should be


Double seam

A problem in any one of these factors and others can contribute to seam defects that have an adverse effect on the ability of the can to withstand foreign contamination and keep the product from leaking or reduce its shelf life. Below is a list that can be used as a reference.


Double seam

* Cover droop - A droop is a smooth projection of a double seam below the bottom of a normal seam. The droop may occur at any point of the double seam.
  * Cover Vee - "Vees" or "lips" are projections of the double seam below the bottom of a normal seam that resemble a "V" shape. There is usually no overlap of the cover hook with the body hook and these defects usually occur in small areas of the seam.
  * Cut Over - A "cut-over" is a seam defect where the top of the inside portion of the seam has become sharp enough to fracture the metal. As in the definition of "sharp seam", this condition usually occurs at the side seam juncture of a three piece container.
  * Dead Head - A deadhead or spinner (also referred to as slips or skids) is an incomplete seam caused by the chuck spinning in the countersink during the seaming operation.
  * False Seam - A "false seam" is a seam or portion of the seam which is completely unhooked, and in which the folded cover hook is compressed against the folded body hook. A false seam is not always detectable in an external examination.
  * Knocked Down Flange - A knocked down flange is a critical seam defect and it occurs when the cover and body hooks do not interlock due to a bent can flange before double seaming.
  * Long Body Hook - A long body hook is a condition where the body hook approaches or exceeds the maximum recommended specification.
  * Long Cover Hook - A long cover hook is a condition where the cover hook length approaches or exceeds the recommended guidelines.
  * Loose First Operation Seam - Loose first operation seams may not allow sufficient tuck up of the cover curl to form a sufficient amount of cover hook and overlap in the finished seam.


Double seam

* Pleats, Puckers and Spurs - A pleat is a fold in the cover hook that extends from the cut edge downward toward the cover hook radius and sometimes below this radius in a sharp vee or spur shape. A pucker is a condition which is intermediate between a reverse wrinkle and a pleat, where the cover hook at the cut edge is locally distorted downward without actually folding. A spur is a localized irregularity characterized by a sharp protrusion at the bottom of the double seam. It is usually accompanied by a pleat or vee in the cover hook.
  * Seam bump - Seam bumps are a relatively short area of the double seam, where the seam thickness suddenly increases by 0.004" (0.1 mm) or more. They are predominantly found on welded and two-piece cans with long body hooks and are usually seen on the can filler's end when hot filled products exceed 185 degrees (Fahrenheit). The cover hook radius may be pulled away from the body wall.
  * Sharp seam - A sharp seam is a condition where the seam has a sharp edge and / or radius on the upper inside edge of the countersink wall. Sharpness is a conditional defect and must be evaluated by degree (slight vs sharp). A slight condition must be carefully watched and corrected as soon as possible. Left unchecked, this defect can cause cut overs.
  * Short Body Hook - A short body hook is a condition where the body hook does not meet the minimum required specification.
  * Short Cover Hook - A short cover hook is a condition where the cover hook does not meet the minimum recommended specification.
  * Sprung seam - A sprung seam is a condition where the seam is pulled away from the body wall. In extreme cases, the seam is pulled away from the body wall all the way around the can.
  * Tight First Operation Seam - Tight first operation seams can create flatness at the bottom of the first operation seam throughout its length. The cover hook may also be turned into the body hook. Overly tight first operation seams tend to create more reverse wrinkles in the cover hook.


Double seam

Government regulations

In the United States, the production and quality of double seams is regulated by the US Department of Health and Human Services - Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the Department of Agriculture (USDA). The plant's responsibility towards the government depends on the product being canned. The FDA regulates all components of canning low acid canned foods, including handling of empty containers, glass, metal and plastic containers. FDA regulations require that at least one double seam can per seamer must be visually inspected every 30 minutes. Additionally one can per line must be cut open and inspected with a micrometer or a seam scope, which projects a magnified image of the seam, at least every four hours.X-rays may be used to inspect the seam as part of the visual inspection

Bispham Rock Gardens

Bispham Rock Gardens, also known as Devonshire Road Rock Gardens or the Rock Gardens, is a municipal park located in Bispham, Blackpool on the Fylde coast in Lancashire, England. The gardens are an important wildlife resource and contains a number of rare species.

The main entrance to the gardens is at the top of Knowle Hill on Devonshire Road. Built upon the site of Beryl Hill (A Celtic name meaning Hill, Hill, Hill) which allegedly was the site of a cairn and a beacon to warn of a Napoleonic invasionPendle Hill, Beacon Fell and the Bowland fells.

History

The gardens were founded in the early 1900s, and were opened to the public in 1925. Over the years the gardens fell into disrepair, were vandalised and used less and less by local residents. In 2002 the Friends of the Rock Gardens was formed to improve community access and use of the park; and to restore the park's amenities.

The park has been regularly used for many years as a setting for wedding photography.

Gardens renovation

The Friends group has held fund raising events such as an Easter ExtravaganzaTeddy Bears' Picnic Fun Day, the first of which was held on 31 July 2007 and attracted about 300 people with Guests of Honour being the Mayor of Blackpool, Robert Wynne, and the area's MP, Joan Humble.

The Heritage Lottery Fund gave a grant of £20,000 in May 2006 to help restore the gardens which received a major revamp with the creation of an educational woodland walk and butterfly habitat. The Friends group forged links with local schools who use the park for outdoor projects such as mini-beast and pond studies. Also the Lancashire Wildlife Trust is monitoring the rare white-letter hairstreak butterfly which lives in the gardens.mosaics.

In November 2007 contractors started a project to completely re-lay the gardens paths. The project cost £57,000 with funding coming from various sources, including Blackpool Borough Council, the local area forum and local firms. The project also received a £39,000 grant from The Veolia Environmental Trust under the Landfill Communities Fund.runners with a challenging workout and grassed paths for light walks.

Florence Finch

For the New Zealand supercentenarian, see list of supercentenarians from Oceania.

Florence Ebersole Smith Finch (October 11, 1915 – December 8, 2016) was a Filipino-American member of the World War II resistance against the Japanese occupation of the Philippines.

Life

Finch was born Loring May Ebersole on October 11, 1915, in Santiago, Isabela, the Philippine Islands, when the country was under the American insular government. Her father was American and her mother was Filipino. How Ebersole's given name, usually masculine and thus unusual for women at that time, was changed to Florence remained unknown.

Prior to the Japanese invasion of the Philippines, Finch was working at the G-2 (Intelligence) Headquarters of the U. S. Army in Manila.

At the start of the occupation, she managed to suppress her American heritage and to secure a job at the Philippine Liquid Fuel Distributing Union, which was controlled by the occupying Japanese forces.

In 1944, she was discovered as having worked in the resistance and was arrested, tortured, tried and sentenced to three years of imprisonment.

Following the war, she moved to Buffalo, New York, where she joined the U.S. Coast Guard.

She died on December 8, 2016, in Ithaca, New York. Finch was given a military funeral with full honors in April 2017.

Awards and legacy

Finch was awarded the American Medal of Freedom in 1947. She was also awarded the Asiatic–Pacific Campaign Ribbon, the first woman to be so decorated.

In 1995, the Coast Guard named a building on Sand Island in Hawaii in her honor.

In 2019, the USCG announced its intention to name their Fast Response Cutter (FRC 57) for "Seaman First Class Florence Finch".

2021 Ladies' National Football League

The 2021 Ladies' National Football League, known for sponsorship reasons as the Lidl Ladies' National Football League,ladies' Gaelic football competition taking place in summer 2021. Division placings were the same as for the 2020 competition, which was unfinished due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Revised fixtures were announced on 6 April 2021, with the tournament taking place in late May and June.

Format

League structure

The 2021 Ladies' National Football League consists of three divisions of eight teams and one of seven. Each division is divided into a North and South section with four teams in each section, except that there are three teams in 4 South. Each team plays every other team in its section once. 3 points are awarded for a win and 1 for a draw.

Teams by Province
Province           Division 1  Division 2  Division 3  Division 4
Connacht           2           0           2           1
Leinster           2           2           4           3
Munster            3           2           0           1
Ulster             1           4           2           2

Tiebreakers for league ranking

If two teams are level on points, the tie-break is:

  * winners of the head-to-head game are ranked ahead
  * if the head-to-head match was a draw, then whichever team scored more points in the game is ranked ahead (e.g. 1-15 beats 2-12)
  * if the head-to-head match was an exact draw, ranking is determined by the points difference (i.e. total scored minus total conceded in all games)
  * if the points difference is equal, ranking is determined by the total scored

If three or more teams are level on league points, rankings are determined solely by points difference.

Finals, promotions and relegations

The top two teams in each section in Division 1 contest the Ladies' National Football League semi-finals.

The top two teams in each section in divisions 2, 3 and 4 contest the semi-finals of their respective divisions. The division champions are promoted.

The last-placed teams in each section in divisions 1, 2 and 3 play a relegation playoff against each other, with the losers relegated.

Jerzy Tumaniszwili

Jerzy Tumaniszwili in 2009

Jerzy Tumaniszwili (Georgian: გიორგი თუმანიშვილი, Giorgi Tumanishvili) (June 21, 1916 – December 9, 2010) was a Polish naval commander of a Georgian aristocratic descent. A World War II veteran and later an émigré to the United States, he received the rank of rear-admiral from the government of Poland in 2008.

Jerzy Tumaniszwili was born in Moscow in 1916. His father Prince Paul Toumanoff (Tumanishvili, 1872–1935) served as Marshal of Nobility of Georgia in the last years of the Russian Empire. His mother, Jadwiga Szyszko, was a daughter of the Polish general Cezary Szyszko, a commander in Zhytomyr. After the Russian Revolution of 1917, the family moved to Georgia, which they fled, following the country's takeover by the Bolsheviks in 1921. The family eventually settled in Warsaw, where Paul Toumanoff headed a local Georgian émigré committee from 1924 to 1930.

In 1935, Jerzy Tumaniszwili, through the recommendation of General Alexander Zakariadze, a Georgian in the Polish service, was enrolled in the Polish Naval Academy. In 1938 Tumaniszwili received the rank of second lieutenant of the Polish navy. During World War II, he served as an artillery officer on the ORP Burza, OF Ouragan, ORP Krakowiak, and ORP Piorun. He participated in various combat missions, including the Norwegian Campaign, the Battle at Calais, the Atlantic Convoys, the actions in the Bay of Biscay, and the D-Day operations. He was wounded in combat in 1942 during battle with enemy torpedo boats. In 1944, Tumaniszwili was promoted to captain of the Polish navy.

Bispham Green

Bispham Green is a village in the West Lancashire district of Lancashire, England. It is 1 mile (1.6 km) south of Mawdesley and less than 1 mile (1.6 km) north of Parbold.

The civil parish of Bispham is the only one in the West Lancashire district that is served by a parish meeting instead of a town or parish council. At the 2011 census the parish had a population of 238.willow growing) for the basket weaving trade, but since the 1950s the land has reverted solely to agricultural use. There are no industrial buildings and no future planning for any extensive development.

Geography

Bispham is south of Croston, Mawdesley and Tarleton, north of Hilldale and Parbold, west of Heskin, Wrightington and Eccleston. The River Douglas travels through Bispham and it is a tributary to the River Ribble and has two tributaries itself, the River Tawd and the River Yarrow. It shares its local parish with Mawdesley as Bispham has no actual churches on its land. The land around Bispham is both pastoral and arable and abundant with wildlife. Bispham covers an area of approximately 1,000 acres (4.0 km2) of grade 2 agricultural land. Rising to 80 metres above sea level at its eastern tip, it is bounded on the south side of the River Douglas, and on the north side of Bentley Brook.

Richard Durning's Endowed Primary School


Bispham Green

Richard Durning's Endowed Primary School

It was known as Bispham Free Grammar School up until 1951. The name was changed to Richard Durning's because Richard Durning himself had funded the building of the school in his will after he died in 1692. He had set aside £100 for the school and the land (known as Higher Jacks field) was purchased for £10. He also left money of which "a yearly sum of £4 is to be paid to four or six poor people of Bispham such as by age, sickness, lameness, or any other infirmity should have need, (bastards always excepted) £2 for repairing the high lanes of Bispham Green and Grimshaw Green and the house of Peter Travis, and the high lanes of Wrightington, £5 for the binding of poor children apprentices in the townships of Bispham, Parbold, Mawdesley and Wrightington, £5 to be paid and distributed among two or more of my poor kindred, £2 towards the support of a preaching minister at Douglas Chapel." Today the Trustees of the Charity administer its assets, the income from which is used to provide special benefits to the school and to award grants towards the cost of the education and training of young people under the age of 25 who are pupils or former pupils of the school or who reside in the civil parishes of Bispham, Parbold, Mawdesley, Wrightington and Croston. Part of the school building dates back to 1693. It is located on Chorley Road, in Bispham. Richard Durning was a local yeoman, who was born in 1615 and died in 1692 at the age of 75. He is buried in the Chancel of St Michael an All Angels Parish Church in Croston.

Frank McManus (Australian politician)

For other people named Frank McManus, see Frank McManus (disambiguation).

Francis Patrick Vincent McManus CMG (27 February 1905 – 28 December 1983), Australian politician, was the last leader of the parliamentary Democratic Labor Party and a prominent figure in Australian politics for 30 years.

Early life

McManus was born in North Melbourne, into a working-class family of Irish Catholic background. He was one of three boys to Patrick, a wagon driver and Gertrude his wife.Christian Brothers schools, including St Mary's Primary School, West Melbourne, St. Joseph's, CBC North Melbourne (1918–1922),St Kevin's College, Melbourne. Following his secondary schooling, and with the assistance of a scholarship, he attended Newman College at the University of Melbourne where he graduated with a Bachelor of Arts(Honors) and Diploma of Education which allowed him to become a school teacher. Later he became an official in the Victorian Department of Education.

Political life

In 1950 McManus was appointed Assistant State Secretary of the Australian Labor Party. The Victorian Branch of the party was then under the control of right-wing forces aligned with B. A. Santamaria's secretive anti-communist "Movement." In this position McManus supported the Industrial Groups which the party had set up within trade unions to combat the influence of the Communist Party of Australia.

After Labor's defeat in the 1954 federal election, the federal Leader, Dr H. V. Evatt, publicly blamed the Victorian Branch and Santamaria's "Movement" for the defeat, causing a split in the Branch between pro- and anti-Evatt factions which eventually split the whole party. McManus along with hundreds of other "Groupers" was expelled from Labor.Australian Labor Party (Anti-Communist), which eventually became the Democratic Labor Party (DLP).

McManus was elected to the Senate at the 1955 federal election as an ALP (Anti-Communist) candidate,1961,1964,1970.


Frank McManus (Australian politician)

In the Senate, the DLP had between one and five Senators between 1955 and 1974, led first by George Cole of Tasmania and then by Vince Gair of Queensland, with McManus as Deputy Leader. The DLP gave critical support to the Liberal governments of Robert Menzies and his successors, pressing them to adopt more militantly anti-communist policies both domestically and internationally, particularly on issues such as the Vietnam War and the recognition of the People's Republic of China believing there was a real threat from communist domination.

In 1973, following the election of the Whitlam Labor government, Gair was forced out as DLP Leader and was succeeded by McManus, who at 68 was only three years younger than Gair. The election of Whitlam had robbed the DLP of most of its influence, and Gair's acceptance of the post of Ambassador to Ireland from Whitlam split the party and caused a collapse in its support. In 1974 the DLP supported the Liberal leader, Billy Snedden, in threatening to block the Whitlam government's budget bills in the Senate.

When Whitlam responded by immediately calling an election for both the House and Senate (a double dissolution), McManus informed the Victorian Central Executive that Billy Snedden had agreed to the Liberals running a joint Senate ticket with the DLP, which would have guaranteed him a winnable Senate spot. But this joint ticket did not eventuate, and all the DLP Senators lost their seats,

Later life

McManus ran for the Senate again at the 1975 election following the fall of the Whitlam government, but was not elected, his vote falling to 5.8 percent.

He was made a Companion of the Order of St Michael and St George (CMG) in 1979.

He died in Melbourne in 1983 leaving a wife and four children.

She subsequently served as pastor of the Universalist Church, Pasadena, California, 1892–95, where, with a membership of nearly 500, it was the largest congregation in the world under the charge of a woman.Jamaica Plain (Boston), Massachusetts. Kollock served as President of the Woman's Centenary Association, (later, the Association of Universalist Women), 1902–3.temperance movement and women's suffrage.

Early life and education

Florence Ellen Kollock was born in Waukesha, Wisconsin, January 19, 1848.

Florence's parents felt that the daughters should be given an equal chance in life with the sons.State University at Madison and went into professional life. Dr. Mary Kollock Bennett, Kollock's oldest sister, was the first woman who matriculated at the Ann Arbor Medical College. The next in point of age, Dr. Harriet Kollock, was one of the first women who graduated from the same college. The third sister, Dr. Jennie Kollock, was the second woman who graduated in dentistry at Ann Arbor.

Career

For the first five years after graduation,Universalists, and as that was the first denomination to open its educational institutions and grant ordination to women, she chose that denomination and took her theological course at St. Lawrence University, in Canton, New York.Rochester, New York early in the summer of 1874, and preached for the Universalist Society about three months.

Wisconsin and Illinois

After Kollock graduation from St. Lawrence, she was regularly engaged in the work of the Universalist ministry.Waverly, Wisconsin, in 1876. She remained at Waverley two years, and then followed the Rev. Augusta Jane Chapin as pastor of the Universalist church at Blue Island, Illinois, one of Chicago's suburbs. During her pastorate there, she established a mission at Englewood, Illinois, another community area of Chicago. After the regular morning service at Blue Island, Kollock was in the habit of traveling a distance between 8–10 miles (13–16 km) in any vehicle which by chance she could command, or other means failing her, of making the distance on foot. The little group which first gathered about her rapidly increased in numbers until within a year, a church was formed in Englewood and she became its pastor, removing there in 1879.

Her first congregation in Englewood numbered fifteen, who met in Masonic Hall. Kollock's ability as an organizer was felt everywhere, in the flourishing Sunday-school, numbering over 300, which ranked high in regular attendance and enthusiasm, and in the various other branches of church work, which was reduced to a system.community area of Chicago covered a continuous period of about fourteen years, during which time she built two church edifices, the last being the Stewart Avenue Universalist Church. She always wore black in the pulpit, alternating broadcloth in the winter, for silk or lace in the summer.

In 1890, she vacationed in Wisconsin and then returned to the pulpit of the Englewood Universalist church on 65th Street where she discussed "The Bennett Law and the Public School Issue in Wisconsin".Washington, D.C. in March 1891 at a meeting of the Woman's National Suffrage Association where she joined a committee appointed to confer with the Board of Lady Managers of the World's Columbian Exposition intent on launching an active campaign in the southern states.

Dvořák - In Love?

Dvorak - in love?

Dvořák – In Love? is a 1988 documentary film about the Czech composer Antonín Dvořák and a recording of his Cello Concerto by Julian Lloyd Webber and the Czech Philharmonic which was made in the same year. The film also tells of a love affair for the composer that never was, but was the inspiration for the concerto.

Originally a co-production with Czechoslovak Television, the finished film and its political content could not be shown in Communist-ruled Czechoslovakia. Two years later, after the fall of communism, the film was the first documentary to be shown on the newly-liberated Czechoslovak Television.

Eglinton River

The Eglinton River is located in the region of Southland in the southwest of New Zealand. It flows through Fiordland National Park for 50 kilometres (31 mi). Its headwaters are at Lake Gunn, 25 kilometres (16 mi) east of Milford Sound, and it flows generally south before entering Lake Te Anau along the lake's eastern shore opposite the entrance to North Fiord.

For much of its length the Eglinton is accompanied by the only road in the region, State Highway 94 from Te Anau to Milford Sound.Milford Track is located close to the Eglinton River.

The first Europeans to explore the river were David McKellar and George Gunn, in 1861.Archibald Montgomerie, 13th Earl of Eglinton by James McKerrow, an Otago surveyor.

The river flow is small leaving Lake Gunn but is greatly increased by Cascade Creek, which joins it just south of the lake. There are short gorges between Lake Gunn and Cascade Creek, and below the junction with Walker Creek. While the river has been kayaked from Cascade Creek, there is not usually sufficient water at this point and whitewater kayaking is more common from the junction with the East Branch.Rainbow and brown trout are available in the river up to Cascade Creek.

Bispinor

In physics, and specifically in quantum field theory, a bispinor is a mathematical construction that is used to describe some of the fundamental particles of nature, including quarks and electrons. It is a specific embodiment of a spinor, specifically constructed so that it is consistent with the requirements of special relativity. Bispinors transform in a certain "spinorial" fashion under the action of the Lorentz group, which describes the symmetries of Minkowski spacetime. They occur in the relativistic spin- 1/2 wave function solutions to the Dirac equation.

Bispinors are so called because they are constructed out of two simpler component spinors, the Weyl spinors. Each of the two component spinors transform differently under the two distinct complex-conjugate spin-1/2 representations of the Lorentz group. This pairing is of fundamental importance, as it allows the represented particle to have a mass, carry a charge, and represent the flow of charge as a current, and perhaps most importantly, to carry angular momentum. More precisely, the mass is a Casimir invariant of the Lorentz group (an eigenstate of the energy), while the vector combination carries momentum and current, being covariant under the action of the Lorentz group. The angular momentum is carried by the Poynting vector, suitably constructed for the spin field.

A bispinor is more or less "the same thing" as a Dirac spinor. The convention used here is that the article on the Dirac spinor presents plane-wave solutions to the Dirac equation using the Dirac convention for the gamma matrices. That is, the Dirac spinor is a bispinor in the Dirac convention. By contrast, the article below concentrates primarily on the Weyl, or chiral representation, is less focused on the Dirac equation, and more focused on the geometric structure, including the geometry of the Lorentz group. Thus, much of what is said below can be applied to the Majorana equation.

Definition

Bispinors are elements of a 4-dimensional complex vector space ( 1/2, 0) ⊕ (0, 1/2) representation of the Lorentz group.

In the Weyl basis, a bispinor
