Edmund Seyfang Taylor

Edmund Seyfang Taylor (27 August 1853 – 19 April 1908), popularly known as "Walker Miles", was an early pioneer of rambling in the UK. He founded one of the predecessors of the modern-day Ramblers of Great Britain and wrote numerous walking guides.

Legacy

Walker Miles was the founder of the Croydon Rambling Club and was also associated with the Forest Ramblers and the Commons and Footpaths Preservation Society.

In 1905, along with representatives from other London-based clubs, Walker founded the Federation of Rambling Clubs. This proved to be the first of many such organizations around the country which eventually joined together to form the National Council of Ramblers Federations. In 1935 this became the Ramblers Association of Great Britain.

Guidebooks

Walker wrote 37 pocket-sized books of 'field-path rambles' and published them via his own printing company which he inherited from his father. The pocket-sized guides covered walks in the Surrey and Kent area and were known for their meticulous attention to detail, with each new guide containing several pages of updates and corrections to previous books. They are credited with saving many little-known footpaths and rights of way from falling into disuse and being lost forever.

Commemoration

Walker is buried in the graveyard of St Nicholas' Church, Godstone.sarsen stone which was erected by the rambling clubs of London.Leith Hill Tower, Coldharbour, Surrey.

In April 2008, The Ramblers Association's Surrey Area clubs held a weekend of special walks to mark the centenary of his burial and to commemorate the "father of Surrey rambling". Ramblers Association Vice President David Sharp, who attended the commemoration, outlined the importance of Walker Miles' contribution, saying:


Edmund Seyfang Taylor

With his amazing series of sixpenny fieldpath guides, Walker Miles showed us the importance of our rights of way. In his day they had no legal status and had virtually been forgotten by a generation. He seems to have been a visionary, sensing how important these fieldpaths would become, as the motor car took over the country lanes. Today we well know how important a part of our heritage they are, and it was Walker Miles who opened our eyes.

If I Had One Chance to Tell You Something

If I Had One Chance To Tell You Something is the eighth studio album from Rebecca St. James. The album includes the hit singles "Alive" and "You Are Loved".

Writing and development

St. James co-wrote 11 out of the 12 tracks on the album, with the songs "God Help Me" and "You Are Loved" being written solely by her.

The title song "You Are Loved" was inspired by an old family friend. St. James says, "This is a song for the prodigals—which is all of us. God is the father that has His arms open wide waiting for us. He wants us to run towards Him and He will run toward us. It’s a song of hope and a message my generation needs to hear. ‘No matter where you've been and what you've done... you are loved.' From this song came the album title—and really the key theme of the project."

"Shadowlands" was inspired by the writings of C.S. Lewis, while "Love Being Loved By You" is described by St. James as a worship song.Compassion International song".TobyMac, "Thank You" is a simple message of thanks to God.

If I Had One Chance To Tell You Something is described as "commercial alternative rock".Worship God. The songs are based in guitars, bass lines, and string arrangements. St. James also dabbles in hip-hop on the track "Thank You".Matt Bronleewe, and producer Shaun Shankel.

Murray v Leisureplay plc

Murray v Leisureplay plc [2005] EWCA Civ 963 is an English contract law case, concerning the termination of an agreement and penalty clauses.

Facts

An employment contract said ‘in the event of wrongful termination by way of liquidated damages the company shall forthwith pay to the Executive a sum equal to one year’s gross salary, pension contributions and other benefits in kind.’ Leisureplay plc claimed that the bonus should be void as a penalty clause.

In the High Court, Burnton J held it was penal because no account was taken of the Executive’s duty to mitigate his loss.

Judgment

The Court of Appeal held that the bonus was valid. Arden LJ held the clause was ‘generous’ but still liquidated damages, as it was not ‘extravagant or unconscionable’.

Hesitation

For other uses, see Hesitation (disambiguation).

Angelica Kauffman, Self-Portrait Hesitating Between the Arts of Music and Painting (1794).

Charles Jacque, L'hésitation (1841), showing a dog in a position indicating hesitation.

Hesitation or hesitating is the psychological process of pausing in the course of making a decision or taking an action, typically due to uncertainty as to the best course of action. Hesitation is described in both positive and negative terms, with some perceiving it as an indication of thoughtfulness, while others characterize it as a sign of indecisiveness or lack of the will to act. In literature, a period of hesitation on the part of a key character has sometimes been depicted as having substantial consequences.

Psychology

Psychologically, hesitation can be described as "the period of inactivity during which the struggle amongst the nascent activities of different mechanisms is proceeding, during which the nascent activities of the mechanisms is alternating".

Hesitation can be observed in animals. For example, in the third week of training a dog to come when signaled by its owner:

the week was marked by the onset of overt hesitation on the dog's part. For the first time, Finnegan began to start and stop in place while riveting his gaze on the trainer's movements. The physical hesitation suggests the emergence of a new step in the process: the dog begins to perceive that his task is to figure out the trainer's desires as to when he should come or stay. Hesitation suggests that the dog has a sense that sometimes coming is "right" and sometimes it is "wrong".

In humans, hesitation can be attributed to many causes.speech hesitation, wherein a person has difficulty beginning to speak, arising from factors including uncertainty about what to say, and concerns over speaking competence.


Hesitation

Stanton Marlan writes more positively of the phenomenon that "I imagine hesitation as being a fecund opening, a gateway to the unconscious and to the nothingness of which Derrida speaks. It is a nothingness that enriches both the dialectical process of analysis and our theoretical speculation".James Hillman, "[t]his increased interiority means that each new ... inspiration, each hot idea ... will first be drawn through the labyrinthine ways of the soul, which wind it and slow it and nourish it from many sides".

Philosophy and morality

Hesitation can be interpreted positively or negatively. It may be seen by some as evidence of thoughtfulness and due consideration of alternatives before acting, and by others as vacillation or self-doubt.Carl von Clausewitz described hesitation as a being countered by determination, writing that "the role of determination is to limit the agonies of doubt and the perils of hesitation when the motives for action are inadequate".

Hesitation, however, is expected before entering into a wrongful course of conduct. "If anyone is among friends or people he knows, and wants their respect, he hesitates before doing anything shameful".

In literature

As a literary device, hesitation before engaging in certain actions reveals qualities of the character being described. In William Shakespeare's plays, Hamlet and Macbeth, for example, each protagonist hesitates while contemplating killing another character, Macbeth before killing King Duncan to assume the throne, and Hamlet before killing his uncle Claudius to avenge the murder of his father; "Macbeth's hesitation at killing Duncan is akin to Hamlet's over the kneeling Claudius".Sigmund Freud, in examining Hamlet asserts that "[t]he play is based on Hamlet's hesitation in accomplishing the task of revenge assigned to him; the text does not give the cause or the motive of this". The conflict is "deeply hidden".

The common proverbial phrase "he who hesitates is lost" suggests that the time taken while hesitating to act towards obtaining something can lead to lost opportunity to obtain that thing. The phrase is a rewording of a phrase by playwright Joseph Addison, who wrote in his 1712 play, Cato, a Tragedy:

When love once pleas admission to our hearts

(In spite of all the virtue we can boast)

Lydia Mary Fay

Lydia Mary Fay (1804 - October 5, 1878) was a 19th-century American missionary, educator, writer, and translator. She was the first unmarried woman from North America to be a missionary to China,

Affiliated with the Protestant Episcopal Church,Albany, New York, sailing for China, November 8, 1850, the first single woman sent there by the missionary society. She established in her own house in Shanghai a boarding school for boys, and from this she educated teachers and preachers to carry on the work. Known as "Lady Fay" to her pupils, her efforts developed from this very small beginning into the Doane Hall and Theological School.

For nineteen months, Fay worked on revising the Syllabic Dictionary manuscript. She contributed to magazines and papers, and had exceptional translation skills from Chinese language into English.

Early life and education

Lydia Mary Fay was born in Bennington, Vermont in 1804, the daughter of Ethan Allen Fay and Catharine (Street) Fay. She spent her early life near Albany, New York. Her studies included reading European literature.

Career

Teacher

Originally a Presbyterian, Fay became an Episcopalian in 1840. She began her career as a governess near Alexandria, Virginia. In 1847, she removed to Warrensburg, New York before moving to Miller's Tavern, Virginia to serve as principal at the Midway Female Academy.

Missionary

At the age of 46,William Jones Boone, of the Protestant Episcopal Church Mission (PECM). She sailed for China, in the ship Horatio, November 8, 1850 — the first single woman sent from America to China by a missionary society.

The PECM was in poor condition during the American Civil War (1861–65). The funds were low, and the work languished. In 1860, Fay moved with her students to the Church Missionary Society, in which she had been obliged for a while to work in consequence of a lack of means to sustain the school. In 1867, she returned to the PECM school.


Lydia Mary Fay

Meanwhile, she had become acquainted with a small school of orphan boys, under the charge of Dr. Henderson, an English physician, who was known by missionaries and people throughout the city. These orphan boys he had found, poor and destitute and homeless, wandering about the streets. He fed, clothed and taught them. When he died, his widow, on her return to England, turned them over to the care of Fay.

She established in her own house in Shanghai a boarding school for boys, which she called her "gravest responsibility," as through this agency she hoped to raise up teachers and preachers who would carry on future work. She not only taught in the school, carried all the domestic cares, provided for the clothing, kept all the finances, but devoted much time to the study and translation of the Chinese language. In addition, she had the oversight of boys' day schools, and conducted a class of student teachers.

Upon release, Mark Sinker of New Musical Express reviewed the compilation and stated: "[Harley] was five years late on the eccentric cameo Englandisms that Bowie and the Kinks had defined and exhausted. He had a sillier speech defect than Ian Hunter, and a more absurdly elevated sense of rock's theatrical possibilities. He was camper than Queen could be, and far less forgiveable than Ferry. And still, for all that, he wrote a wicked little melodrama of a tune. The art-pomp of most of these songs has exactly the wistful tinge that Ray Davies had lost, by the early '70s. I don't suppose we noticed that. We were too busy thinking ourselves smart for knowing what he was on about, or hating him for not being real ROCK. I'm obviously going senile, but this is a brilliant record."


Donald A. Guarisco of AllMusic retrospectively wrote: "Of all the glam-rock acts to hit it big in England during the 1970s, Steve Harley & Cockney Rebel were second only to David Bowie himself in terms of artsy ambition. Tunes like "Judy Teen" and "Love's a Prima Donna" may have been poppy enough to sail into the English singles charts, but they also boasted unconventional instrumentation and poetic lyrics with lots of surreal, Bob Dylan-esque wordplay. The result was a string of intelligent yet catchy singles, all of which are compiled on this collection. Greatest Hits also includes a generous array of album favorites, and highlights Harley's oft-underrated skill with ballads. The only real downside is that its surprisingly short track list omits some early gems: the compilers could have easily thrown in another two or three songs to fully flesh out the track selection. Despite this quibble, Greatest Hits is a fine collection and makes a great introduction to this group's ambitious, artsy style of pop."

Edwin Hugh Lundie

Edwin Hugh Lundie (October 13, 1886 – January 8, 1972) was an American architect who established his firm in 1917,Saint Paul, Minnesota. He designed homes, country estates, timber-frame cabins, and public spaces, until his death at age 85. “He consistently drew from the vernacular forms that connected him to his clients’ tastes,”Norman, Tudor, early Scandinavian, and American colonial.American Institute of Architects (AIA),Fellow, FAIA, “for his contribution to the advancement of the profession because of his achievement in design.”Beaux-Arts but went on to pursue a career devoted to the domestic work – a regionalist in the best sense of the word with work connecting to Scandinavian sources that no doubt resonated with many of his clients because of their ancestry but also seemed admirably suited to the lake country of northern Minnesota.”

Life and work

Edwin H. Lundie was born in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, and at the age of thirteen, he moved with his parents to Salem, South Dakota. Then, just out of high school, in 1904, he departed for Saint Paul, Minnesota, where he began his career in architecture as an apprentice in the Saint Paul firm of Cass Gilbert (1858-1934) with Mr. Gilbert's colleague Thomas Holyoke (1866-1925), from 1904 through 1911. When Mr. Gilbert moved entirely to his office in New York, Edwin Lundie continued as a draftsman for Thomas Holyoke, and at the same time he studied drawing at the Saint Paul School of Art.Emmanuel Masqueray (1861-1917) as draftsman, with affiliation in the Atelier Masqueray, in Saint Paul, influenced through the American Society of Beaux-Arts Architecture.


Edwin Hugh Lundie

Lundie became a lead draftsman remaining with Emmanuel Masqueray until the latter’s unexpected death in 1917. At this time, Edwin Lundie, with two of his fellow draftsmen, Frederick Slifer (1885-1948) and Frank Abrahamson (1885-1972), from the office of Monsieur Masqueray, formed a temporary partnership to divide and complete several of Masqueray’s remaining commissions. Lundie was individually responsible for overseeing the implementation and completion of Masqueray’s designs for the Cathedral of Saint Joseph in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, and the Chapel of Saint Thomas Aquinas, at the University of St. Thomas, in Saint Paul, Minnesota.Endicott building, where he had been employed for the prior thirteen years, and where he would remain in private practice as an architect for the next five decades specializing in domestic architecture varying in scale from cottages to country estates.

“Lundie did not call on the repertoire of the more lavish Renaissance and Beaux-Arts forms that distinguished the careers of his previous employers. Instead, he took his classical training and inherent art talent in a different direction, favoring smaller, less formal designs on a more intimate scale. Lundie’s architecture was defined by the use of traditional materials, processes, and the talents of a variety of artisans.”

Edwin Lundie’s approach to design was to convey the spirit of not only what was necessary to execute the authenticity of his creations, but also to exemplify the charm of engagement of human craftsmanship. He always wished to attract clients who represented what he called “an aristocracy of good taste,” and he chose his clients, whether for big projects or small, who he thought had an awareness and appreciation for fine things, who “want fine things done for them within what they can afford to do.” “A man of modesty, he struggled with the problem of how much the architect should lead. Ultimately, he thought of his clients first and served them well. His reassuring structures are models of his perfectionist bent, as well as expressions of his eye for beautiful materials: brick, stone, timber, wrought iron. He spent many hours with clients to realize their personal wishes, and then he would supervise the workmen closely to exact the best standards of craftsmanship from them. He had all the gifts, not the least of which was a lack of egotism, to make people’s dream houses come true.”


Edwin Hugh Lundie

“He communicated his vision with clients and was inspired to express his ideas through presentation drawings and design. He was a true artist of the architectural perspective rendering genre, always paying meticulous attention to the chronological architectural period, studying and refining the details, and applying great sensitivity to the picturesque context of each client architectural situation.”

“In sharp contrast to the Modernists who were getting much of the attention during the height of his career, Lundie gravitated toward the classical. His work was inspired both by...the French Beaux-Arts movement and the practicality of the Colonial Revivalists: homes with even proportions, shutters and a cottage style that evoked a feeling of rural England or the French countryside. Lundie’s trademark became taking basic elements of the home and turning them into discrete works of art.”

Personal life

Edwin Hugh Lundie's parents were Samuel F. and Emma Lenora (Hitchcock) Lundie. He married Grace Holroyd Nash, October 17, 1917. The couple had one child, Ellen Louise (Mrs. Charles Edward Thompson).

List of governors of Katanga

Belgian Congo provinces in 1920

Belgian Congo provinces in 1933 after the District of Lomami was transferred to the new Kasaï Province

Katanga in the Democratic Republic of the Congo in 2015

This list of governors of Katanga includes governors or equivalent officeholders of the Katanga Province established in the Belgian Congo in 1910, and of successor provinces up to 29 October 2015, when Katanga was split into the provinces of Haut-Katanga, Haut-Lomami, Lualaba and Tanganyika.

On 1 October 1933 the original province of Katanga was renamed Elisabethville/Elisabethstad. The district of Lomami was transferred at this time to the new province of Lusambo (later named Kasaï), which had been formed from parts of the old Congo-Kasaï province. The province returned to the name of Katanga on 27 May 1947.

On 11 July 1960, a few days after the Congo Republic had gained independence, the province of Katanga seceded as an independent state. In November 1961 the northern portion was reconquered by the national government and made the province of Nord-Katanga. On 21 January 1963 the remainder of Katanga was reconquered and divided into the provinces of Lualaba and Katanga Oriental.

Nord-Katanga, Lualaba and Katanga Oriental were merged back into the province of Katanga on 28 December 1966. The province was renamed Shaba on 2 January 1972, then returned to the name of Katanga in 1997.

History

The Seeberg Pass was already part of a Roman road in the Noricum province from 15 BC onwards. A Capella settlement in the Duchy of Carinthia, named after a chapel (German: Kapelle, Slovene: Kapela) held by the Bishop of Brixen, was first mentioned about 1050. The market was probably established in the early 13th century under the rule of Duke Bernhard von Spanheim. Market rights were officially confirmed in a 1267/68 deed, when the Seebergsattel was an important trade route for salt and iron ore (German: Eisen). From the 15th century onwards, the valley was the site of several ironworks. Fortifications were built against the invasions by the Ottoman forces, nevertheless Kappel was devastated in 1473. Emperor Frederick III had the town rebuilt and granted it the present-day coat of arms in 1493.


Eisenkappel-Vellach

The Kappel municipality was established in 1850, it was renamed Eisenkappel in 1890, while the iron industries declined. The Eisenkappel citizens had to rely on forestry and summer tourism around several mineral springs, promoted by the opening of the Vellachtalbahn narrow gauge railway line in 1902. Eisenkappel and Vellach finally merged in 1939. In the late days of World War II the remote Peršman farm in Koprein Petzen was a strongpoint of the Slovene Partisans, the only ever-existing Anti-Nazi military resistance of Austria. On 25 April 1945, a Nazi SS unit stormed the building killing eleven residents, among them seven children.

Politics

Seats in the municipal Gemeinderat assembly as of March 2019 :

  * Social Democratic Party of Austria (SPÖ): 8
  * Enotna Lista (EL): 8
  * Austrian People's Party (ÖVP): 2
  * The Freedom Party of Austria (FPÖ): 1

Since March 2009, Eisenkappel-Vellach has been run by a Carinthian Slovene mayor, Franc Jožef Smrtnik. It is currently the only municipality in Carinthia with a mayor of the Slovene minority party Enotna Lista.

Community Innovation Survey

The Community Innovation Surveys (CIS) surveys executed by national statistical offices throughout the European Union and in Norway and Iceland. The harmonized surveys are designed to give information on the innovativeness of different sectors and regions. Data from these surveys is used for the annual European Innovation Scoreboard and for academic research on innovation, with over 200 papers using the CIS data published.

Surveys

In the 1980s, a series of individual surveys on innovation was carried out.Oslo Manual.

This CIS surveys have been carried out:

  * CIS1, 1992
  * CIS2, 1996
  * CIS3, 2001
  * CIS4, for the reference period 2002-2004
  * CIS 2006, for the reference period 2004-2006
  * CIS 2008
  * CIS 2010
  * CIS 2012

CIS1 experienced some difficulties, partly because no standards existed yet, and partly because of a rather limited time-frame.service innovations, and future surveys will also include management techniques, organisational change, design and marketing issues.

Methodology

National statistical offices carry out the survey according to the EU-wide definitions of the Oslo Manual. They generally take a sample from all establishments, stratifying the sample by sector, establishment size and possibly region.
