Herschel Greer Stadium

As consumer preferences changed and in an effort to attract larger groups to the ballpark, in the late 1990s, Greer Stadium's fixed-seating capacity was reduced to 10,300 by eliminating the bleacher sections from the third base side and right field and constructing three party decks in their places. As a result, the general admission area became confined only to the existing bleachers behind the reserved seating along the first base line in right field. A fourth party area was created by repurposing unused space atop the grandstands behind home plate. Another deck was built behind the right-field foul pole, which, at times, featured a rentable hot tub.

The aging Greer Stadium had never been meant to last longer than 30 years,Bill Purcell agreed to support preliminary plans for the stadium on October 25, 2005, and the Nashville Metro Council approved the new stadium on February 7, 2006, due in part to the Sounds securing construction financing through a consortium of banks, avoiding taxpayer expense. The facility was to be called First Tennessee Field. Opening day at the proposed venue was repeatedly pushed back, eventually to as late as April 2009.

Following the dissolution of the plans for the new ballpark, and prior to the 2008 season, more than $1 million in upgrades and repairs were made to Greer.

After the 2008 season, Al Gordon's Amerisports Companies LLC sold the Sounds to MFP Baseball, a New York-based group of investors consisting of Masahiro Honzawa, Steve Posner, and Frank Ward. Keeping the team in Nashville was one of the PCL's top criteria for approval of the sale. million to make repairs and upgrades to the aging stadium's playing field, restrooms, concession stands, scoreboard, sound system, and seating.

In his only plate appearance of the evening, Nashville catcher Lucas May struck out swinging with a full count and the bases loaded to end the game.

Closure and demolition (2015–2019)

After the Sounds' administrative offices were moved to First Tennessee Park in early 2015, Greer became essentially abandoned. Vandals peppered the site with graffiti, and many of the building's windows and box seats were damaged. The playing field became overgrown with brush, and photos of the stadium's interior began appearing on the websites and social media accounts of anonymous urban explorers.

Later that year, Mayor Dean expressed interest in converting the facility to a community sporting complex or a new city park, but, nearing the end of his term, ultimately deferred the decision to the next mayor (Megan Barry, elected 2015).asbestos.

Proposed uses for the land included a soccer stadium, an indoor tennis facility for Belmont University, public tennis courts, rodeo grounds, a Kroger grocery store, and a neighborhood park.The Tennessean, former Sounds President Larry Schmittou expressed his interest in Greer becoming an amateur baseball park, citing its amenities and several Metro high schools that lacked baseball diamonds of their own.

Following Barry's resignation in March 2018, acting Mayor David Briley proposed the demolition of Greer Stadium and the reincorporation of the land into Fort Negley Park. He sought Metro Council approval for the approximately $1 million needed to demolish the stadium, the site of which would then be seeded over with grass. The Metro Historical Commission was tasked with determining a plan to convert the site into one which would honor its Civil War history.As of July 2022, the Metro Parks Department and Metro Historical Commission were planning an open-air museum that shows how the stadium site fits into the history of Fort Negley.

Greer's distinctive guitar-shaped scoreboard was manufactured by the Fairtron Corporation and installed by the Joslin Sign Company prior to the 1993 season at a cost of $400,000.1993 Major League Baseball expansion.

The entire scoreboard measured 115.6 feet (35.2 m) across, 53 feet (16 m) high, and 2 feet (0.61 m) deep.60-foot (18 m) body, 36-foot (11 m) neck, and 19.6-foot (6.0 m) tuning key section.80 feet (24 m) above the ground. watts to power its 8,179 total lamps, which were connected to 64,169 feet (19,559 m) of wire.35,825 pounds (16,250 kg).

The line score was displayed on the guitar's neck, while the ball/strike/out count, the batter's uniform number, and the hit/error indicator were all situated on the headstock. Six small advertising signs represented the tuning keys. The body of the guitar featured only an LED display board for displaying messages. Initially, the scoreboard featured two matrix message boards: a low-resolution RGB color board on the left, which featured advertising and animations, and a white-light monochromatic board on the right, which primarily featured statistical information and other text-based messages. The monochrome board was replaced by an orange-tinted LED display board in 2009, which served both purposes, while the color board was deactivated and covered with advertising signage. The scoreboard never had the ability to display video or any kind of high-resolution images.fireworks after each Sounds home run. By the mid-2000s, the scoreboard had fallen into a state of disrepair and obsolescence, and was only marginally functional. Many of the lights were no longer able to be lit, and replacement parts were becoming hard to find. When MFP Baseball purchased the team in late 2008, the organization made minor renovations to the scoreboard, rendering it once again fully functional, although not to its original specifications.

Greer's guitar scoreboard was not moved to First Tennessee Park when the Sounds relocated there in 2015.The Tennessean: "The guitar scoreboard at Greer is staying at Greer. At some point in time we will share what our new scoreboard will look like, but it's too early in the process. We're trying to figure it out as we speak."

Before the installation of the guitar, Greer's original scoreboard was a black, non-descript, rectangular unit with a 2-line reader panel. In 1985, it was moved to beside the left field foul pole to make room for a new rectangular 4-line scoreboard 10 feet (3.0 m) high with a fully animated reader panel.

Salmson Phrygane

The Salmson Phrygane ("Caddisfly") was a French light aircraft of the 1930s.

Design and production

The Phrygane was a conventional, high-wing strut-braced monoplane with fixed tailwheel undercarriage and a fully enclosed cabin for the pilot and either two or four passengers, depending on the version. Salmson sold about 25 examples before the outbreak of World War II.

Following the war, CFA attempted to revive the design, but only four examples were built.

Operational history

The Phrygane was flown by private pilot owners and by aero clubs. Several examples of this aircraft design survived the war and a few postwar modified aircraft were built by CFA. A D-211 was still in service with Avia Nord at Lille Lesquin airfield during July 1965.

Variants

  * D-1 Phrygane – prototype with Salmson 7Aca engine (one built)

Shannons Flat

Shannons Flat is a locality in the Monaro region of New South Wales, Australia.Snowy Monaro Regional Council local government area, sandwiched between the southern border of the Namadgi National ParkAustralian Capital Territory and the Murrumbidgee River. Shannons Flat also adjoins the NSW localities of Yaouk, Bolaro, Murrumbucca, Bredbo and Billilingra. It is about 308 kilometres (191 mi) south west of the state capital, Sydney, and 70 kilometres (40 mi) from the Australian national capital of Canberra. It is just over 40 kilometres (25 mi) north west of the regional centre, Cooma.

At the 2016 census, Shannons Flat had a population of 78.

Geography

Shannons Flat is in the Monaro region of the Snowy Mountains and is mostly between 1,000 and 1,400 metres (3,300 and 4,600 ft) above sea-level, so usually receives several snowfalls every year. Significant geographic features include Mt Roberts (1,450 metres (4,760 ft) with sweeping views across the Monaro), and Alum Creek and Jones Creek which both flow southward into the Murrumbidgee River. The geology of the area includes a rock called Shannons Flat Granodiorite.

Two major roads run through the area. The Shannons Flat Road/Yaouk Road route runs from Cooma north west towards Yaouk, and the Bobeyan Road runs from Tharwa on the southern edge of Canberra south west to Adaminaby. At the junction of these two routes, the local community hall stands adjacent to the Rural Fire Service shed. The Bobeyan Road is the shortest route from Canberra to Adaminaby and the Selwyn Snowfields ski resort, but is usually avoided by tourists due to the usually poor condition of the gravel sections of the road. Other local roads include Jones Plain Road, Callemondah Road and Wrights Hill Road.

History

The Shannons Flat area was founded as far back at 1840. An early route to Kiandra ran through the area. The school at Shannons Flat was opened in early 1906;

A small school (called Alum Creek School) operated from July 1887 to August 1897.Barcroft Boake who lived in the region in the 1880s based some of his poems on places and events in the area.


Shannons Flat

While Shannons Flat never grew into a village, a school was opened in 1906; it was a one-teacher school with a residence, with as many as 14 students at one time.Memories Before Namadgi by Daphne Curtis.

Industry

Agriculture is primarily sheep and cattle grazing. A potential wind farm development by CBD Energy Limited Peter Spencer, a local farmer went on a hunger strike suspended 6 metres up a tower used for monitoring wind speeds.

The local community hall is used for occasional dances, markets and community meetings.

A school bus service operates from Shannons Flat into Cooma. There are two public primary schools in Cooma, including Cooma Public School and Cooma North Public School, both providing education for students in kindergarten to year 6. Monaro High School is in Cooma and serves the town and neighbouring rural towns and villages. There is a Roman Catholic school called St Patrick's Parish School providing education from kindergarten to year 10. Cooma also has a private Christian school known as Snowy Mountains Christian School. TAFE NSW Illawarra Institute Cooma Campus provides further education. Adaminaby also has a Public Primary School.

Neonatal-onset multisystem inflammatory disease is a rare genetic periodic fever syndrome which causes uncontrolled inflammation in multiple parts of the body starting in the newborn period. Symptoms include skin rashes, severe arthritis, and chronic meningitis leading to neurologic damage. It is one of the cryopyrin-associated periodic syndromes.

NOMID can result from a mutation in the CIAS1 gene (also known as NLRP3 gene), which helps control inflammation. Mutations in this gene also cause familial cold urticaria and Muckle–Wells syndrome. NOMID has been successfully treated with the drug anakinra.

This syndrome is also known as the Prieur–Griscelli syndrome as it was first described by these authors in 1981.

Signs and symptoms

The age of onset is almost always before 3 months of age. Many infants are born preterm (1/3 cases) and dysmature. The babies are frequently small for dates. The placenta may be abnormal with non-specific inflammation on histology. Umbilical cord anomalies have occasionally been reported. In severe cases, signs in the brain may be detected on prenatal ultrasound.

The disease manifests in many forms, making the diagnosis difficult, but the most common features of this disease involve the skin, joints, and central nervous system.

All have a maculopapular urticarial skin rash that is often present at birth (75% cases). It is probably more correctly described as an urticarial-like rash. The presence of the rash varies with time, and biopsy of these skin lesions shows a perivascular inflammatory infiltrate including granulocytes.


In about 35-65% of cases, arthritis occurs. Joint signs are variably expressed and can lead to transient swelling without sequelae between crises, or to unpredictable anomalies of growth cartilage and long bones epiphyses suggestive of a pseudo-tumour. Biopsies reveal hypertrophic cartilage without inflammatory cells. This most commonly affects the large joints (knees, ankles, elbows, and wrists) but may also involve the small joints of the hands and feet. It is usually bilateral and painful. A common and characteristic feature is giant kneecaps. Severe cases may result in contractures (joint deformities).

Most patients eventually have neurological problems. These manifest themselves in three principal ways: chronic meningitis, involvement of both the optic tract and eye, and sensorineural hearing loss. The chronic meningitis presents with the features of chronically raised intracranial pressure: headaches, vomiting, ventriculomegaly, hydrocephalus, macromegaly, cerebral atrophy, and optic atrophy. Some of these features may be evidenced on prenatal ultrasound. In 50% of cases, intellectual deficit occurs. Seizures occur in 25% of cases, but other manifestations are rare. Histological examination shows infiltration of the meninges with polymorphs.

Ocular manifestations occur in 80% of cases and include uveitis (70%), papillary involvement, conjunctivitis, and optical neuritis. If untreated, these may result in blindness (25%). The sensorineural hearing loss occurs in 75%, and tends to be progressive leading to deafness in 20% of cases.

Almost all children are remarkably short and have growth delay. Fever is extremely common but inconstant and is most often mild. Anemia is frequent. Other findings that have been reported include macrocephaly (95%), large fontanelle, prominent forehead, flattening of the nasal bridge (saddleback nose), short and thick extremities, and finger clubbing. The liver and/or spleen may be enlarged. Lymph node enlargement may also be present.


Later in life, secondary amyloidosis may occur. Delayed puberty and secondary amenorrhoea are not uncommon. Hoarseness due to inflammation of the laryngeal cartilage has also been reported.

Causes

The disease is caused in 60% of cases by a mutated gene called CIAS1 that is known to be involved in other syndromes that appear somewhat similar, such as Muckle–Wells syndrome and familial cold urticaria. In many patients, the parents do not have the same mutation, indicating the problem was not inherited, even though it is a genetic disease.CIAS1 is involved in controlling the immune system, which is why the mutation leads to out-of-control inflammation.

Diagnosis

The diagnosis is based on observing the patient and finding the constellation of symptoms and signs described above. A few blood tests help, by showing signs of long standing inflammation. There is no specific test for the disease, though now that the gene that causes the disease is known, that may change.

Routine laboratory investigations are non specific: anaemia, increased numbers of polymorphs, an elevated erythrocyte sedimentation rate and elevated concentrations of C-reactive protein are typically all the abnormalities found. Lumbar puncture shows elevated levels of polymorphs (20-70% of cases) and occasionally raised eosinophil counts (0-30% of cases). CSF neopterin may be elevated. The X ray abnormalities are unique and characteristic of this syndrome. These changes include bony overgrowth due to premature ossification of the patella and the long bone epiphyses in very young children and bowing of long bones with widening and shortening periosteal reaction in older ones.

Audiometry shows a progressive sensineural deafness. Visual examination shows optic atrophy and an increase in the blind spot. CT is usually normal but may show enlargement of the ventricles. MRI with contrast may show enhancement of leptomeninges and cochlea consistent with chronic meningitis. EEG shows a non-specific pattern with slow waves and spike discharges.

Polymorphs tend to show increased expression of CD10.

Differential diagnosis


Differential diagnosis

  * Aicardi–Goutières syndrome
  * Still's disease
  * Schnitzler syndrome
  * Hyperimmunoglobulin D syndrome
  * Familial Mediterranean fever
  * Marshall syndrome
  * Castleman's disease

Still's disease does not affect children under 6 months old. Hyperimmunoglobulin D syndrome in 50% of cases is associated with mevalonate kinase deficiency which can be measured in the leukocytes.

Treatment

There have been attempts to control the inflammation using drugs that work in other conditions where inflammation is a problem. The most successful of these are steroids, but they have side effects when used long term. Other medications, including methotrexate, colchicine and canakinumab, have been tried with some success. Otherwise, the treatment is supportive, or aimed solely at controlling symptoms and maximizing function.

Prognosis

Overall, the prognosis for patients with NOMID is not good, though many (80%) live into adulthood, and a few appear to do relatively well. They are at risk for leukemia, infections, and some develop deposits of protein aggregated called amyloid, which can lead to kidney failure and other problems. The neurologic problems are most troubling. The finding that other diseases are related and a better understanding of where the disease comes from may lead to more effective treatments.

Epidemiology

This is a rare condition with an incidence estimated to be less than 1 in a million live births. About 100 cases have been reported worldwide. The bulk of cases are sporadic but familial forms with autosomal dominant transmission have also been described.

  * Isostyla biquadrata Prout, 1918
  * Isostyla ithomeina (Butler, 1872)

Napoleonaea imperialis

Napoleonaea imperialis is a small, evergreen tropical West African tree in the family Lecythidaceae, native to Africa.

It grows to some 6m in height, with a dense, low-branching crown, and occurs from Benin, Nigeria, Gabon and the Democratic Republic of the Congo southwards to Angola. The showy flowers have two inner rows of petals and vary in colour, usually creamy yellow along the circumference, with the center ranging from red to apricot to purple - they develop either on young branches or grow directly from the old wood of the trunk. The fruit is a berry, dark orange or reddish-brown containing a kidney-shaped seed. This species is popularly cultivated as an ornamental tree.

The species was described in 1804, the same year its namesake (Napoleone di Buonaparte) crowned himself Emperor of the French.

Ethnic medicine

Extracts from the leaves and toxic seeds display bactericidal activity and contain various glycosides, tannins, proteins and saponins, while flavonoids, resins and steroids are absent.

Escherichia coli, Bacillus subtilis and Pseudomonas aeruginosa are inhibited, justifying the use of the species in tribal pharmacology. The bark and fruit pulp are chewed to alleviate pulmonary problems. Analysis of the seeds revealed the presence of napoleogenol, napoleogenin (Kapundu et al., 1980), napoleonaside, and a molluscicidal saponin.

Neonatal hepatitis

Neonatal hepatitis refers to many forms of liver dysfunction that affects fetuses and neonates.

Signs and symptoms

The infant with neonatal hepatitis usually has jaundice that appears at one to two months of age, is not gaining weight and growing normally, and has an enlarged liver and spleen. Infants with this condition are usually jaundiced. Jaundice that is caused by neonatal hepatitis is not the same as physiologic neonatal jaundice. In contrast with physiologic neonatal jaundice, infants with neonatal hepatitis present with dark urine. Infants may also present with delayed growth.

Causes

The causes of neonatal hepatitis are many. Viruses that have been identified include cytomegalovirus, rubella virus, hepatitis A and B viruses, herpes simplex viruses, coxsackievirus, echovirus, and paramyxovirus.

Diagnosis

Differential diagnosis

Conditions that can present similarly include galactosaemia, hereditary fructose intolerance, cystic fibrosis, and biliary atresia.

Napoleon in Europe (game)

[Napoleon in Europe]
[Stephen Hawking]
A game of Napoleon in Europe

Napoleon in Europe (abbreviated NiE) is a board wargame produced by Eagle Games in 2001. It combines elements of economics, politics, and military strategy. The map for the game was illustrated by the artist Paul Niemeyer.

There are seven major playable nations in the game: France, Great Britain, Russia, Austria, Prussia, Spain, and the Ottoman Empire. During the game, countries are given time relative to their historical number of troops, so that France and Russia, for example, vastly outnumber the forces of second-string powers like the Ottomans.

The basic gameplay is similar to Risk, in that each player takes their turn to move, and then fight any combats that result from it. However, rather than rolling several dice as in Risk, fighting troops are transferred to a smaller board that simulates a battlefield, allowing the game to take place on both a tactical and strategic level.

Unlike in other strategy games where players can declare alliances and war at will, Napoleon in Europe uses a system of "Political Action Points", which are used up as players establish alliances, declare war, sue for peace, or annex new territories into their empire. The PAPs makes it harder to betray an ally or declare war spontaneously, creating more historically accurate gameplay.

Iyo-Ōzu Station

Iyo-Ōzu Station (伊予大洲駅, Iyo-Ōzu-eki) is a junction passenger railway station located in the city of Ōzu, Ehime Prefecture, Japan. It is operated by JR Shikoku and is the junction of two branches of the Yosan Line and hence has two station numbers "U14" and "S18".

Lines

Iyo-Ōzu Station is served by the JR Shikoku Yosan Line and is located 243.0 km from the beginning of the line at Takamatsu (measured along the shorter Uchiko branch.Matsuyama. Connections with other services are needed to travel further east of Matsuyama on the line.

In addition, the Uwakai limited express from Matsuyama to Uwajima stops at the station.

Layout

The station consists of an island platform and a side platform serving three tracks. Access to the island platform is by means of a footbridge. The station building houses a waiting room, a JR ticket window (with a Midori no Madoguchi facility) and a JR Travel Centre (Warp Plaza). Car parking is available at the station. Several sidings branch off the tracks, the one beyond track 3 leading to a disused freight platform.

History


Iyo-Ōzu Station

History

The station was opened on 14 February 1918 as Ōzu, the terminus of the private Ehime Railway (愛媛鉄道, Ehime Tetsudō) a 762 mm (2 ft 6 in) light railway line starting from Wakamiya Junction (若宮連絡所, Wakamiya-renraku-sho), near Nagahama-machi (the present Iyo-Nagahama). After the company was nationalized on 1 October 1933, Japanese Government Railways (JGR) took over the station. It was renamed Iyo-Ōzu and now formed part of the Ehime Line (愛媛線, Ehime-sen). On October 6, 1935, after the track had been re-gauged to 1,067 mm, the station became part of the Yosan Main Line. With the privatization of JNR on 1 April 1987, control of the station passed to JR Shikoku.

Safwa people

This article is about the African ethnic and linguistic group. For the city in Saudi Arabia, see Safwa city.

The Safwa are an ethnic and linguistic group based in the mountains of the Mbeya Region, Tanzania. The Safwa language is a member of the large Niger–Congo language family group. Alternate names for Safwa are Ishisafwa, Cisafwa, and Kisafwa. Its dialects are Guruka, Mbwila, Poroto, and Songwe. ISO 639-3 language code is sbk.

In 1957 the Safwa population was estimated to be approximately 158,000. In 2012 after the national census, the tribe's population estimates is expected to exceed 450,000. The Wasafwa population had increased from 9,000 in 1910, during the German occupation.

Organisation

The Safwa were a very loosely organized people, hardly more than subjects of the Wasangu, by whom they had been conquered in 1893. They apparently had no traditional history and came close to being stateless. Even though they can be considered stateless they were still split into many small chiefdoms, much as the Nyika and Wanda with whom they seem to have been related. They were easily defeated (being accused of never getting their act together), but difficult to control. They hated being under the dominion of Merere's Wasangu, and were later a difficult to administer, wanting nothing to interfere with their feeling of equality, which was central to their identity and ideology.

As the Wasangu spread terror, the stateless Wasafwa retreated and scattered into the hills, leaving empty land. It was not only the Wasangu domination they hated, in hope of expelling all Europeans, they killed off all male animals on the supposed order of a reincarnated ancestor-hero. In the 1890s Safwa children played at assaulting fortresses. Perhaps the same fortress forced on them by the Sangu or when they were surprised by the sudden arrival of Safari Conductor Bauer and his people.

Culture

Childbirth


Safwa people

Culture

Childbirth

As the occupation by the Wasangu continued, the traditions and customs of the Safwa slowly disappeared. Some, however remained, such as allowing new born children to die of hunger with the death of their mother, as no woman was allowed to breast feed a child not her own. There were no wet nurses.

Giving birth to twins was a severe shock to parents who then normally allowed one to die of hunger, thus avoiding the fear of the possible death of the parents due to two angry spirits. Following a twin birth, the process of cleansing the village and parents with a 'medicine doctor' was complex and took a great deal of wealth in livestock and agricultural products. It could take two years (ten years if both twins lived), until they were finally treated as regular members of the community. Otherwise the Wasafwa denied ever killing children handicapped at birth, "It is God's - Nguluvi's - will" and it is said they were treated as normal children.

It is also said that Albino children are not put to death, although Albinos are not seen among the Wasafwas, but many are seen in other parts of Central Africa.

Two to three days following birth the child begins to be force-fed by being laid on its back with millet mush placed in its mouth. The nose is pinched shut and when the mouth is opened to breathe the mush is eaten. The fingers of the mother continue to push the pap beyond nutritional needs. It is thought to prepare the child for a later life of feast or famine.

Chief


Safwa people

Chief

The official title of the Safwa's chief is "Mwene". The most powerful clan to hold the mweneship for many years is the Mwashinga clan. The Mwashingas have their origins at Igawilo, in Mbeya Urban district. One of the modern Mwenes, who was perhaps, the most powerful and influential, is Mwene Paul Mwashinga (not to be confused with Paul William Mwashinga from Mwanjelwa who died in 2015). This man was educated, rich and well traveled. Before his death in 1987 he had commanded a lot of respect not only from his own people, but also from high ranking government officials. This was especially evidenced by the number of important political and business people who attended his funeral at Igawilo Mbeya in 1987. He was buried near Iganjo less than a kilometer away from Igawilo High School. On the death of an old leader, choosing a new chief could be complex: the elder counselors were called and the dying chief told them who was to be the new leader, normally one of his sons or grandsons, no one else was told of the choice, not even the son or other family members, or even other members of the village. No one knew. Only when people were told "the chief is not well, do not make any noise", were they aware he was dying. With his death the 'old' counselors buried the body as everyone slept. Only the next day when they were told, "he is very ill, no one may walk on another chief's land", did they know he had died. There were no lamentations, but all men, women, and children shaved their heads. The women quickly brewed beer. Those of the sons who had decided not to accept the role of chief disappeared ahead of time. The old counselors then 'decided' who would be the new chief and 'boxed' the ears of the resistant one until he accepted. The leaders also took two more youths, one to become the Migave and the other a girl, the Namutemi (the 'also crowned', even if the new chief had many other wives). The Namutemi remained a full month, and only after a month were people able to celebrate the 'bringing out' or the new chief.


Safwa people

Some chiefs avoided eating the meat of dogs, (which only caused the stomach to bark), lions, elephants, and rhinoceros (for they are rulers of the wild), hippopotamus (for they give spots on the skin). Some could not even eat corn and beans cooked together or the leaves of vegetables, for this would brand them as poor. Since "rain is afraid to fall on barren peaks or forest land", chiefs could not shave their heads; they could only cut it, for they were after all responsible for good rain. Since much of Safwaland could be very cold. Weaving by the men was a normal occupation, but by 1909 a man could earn four times more cloth through wages than weaving it himself, for with the importation of European cloth the weaving industry began to die out.

Religion

Originally the Safwas, like many inland Tanzanian tribes, were traditionalists. They worshiped ancestors. They used to keep a sacred grove where the elders (priests) of the tribe would visit in times of disasters such as lack of rain or outbreak of killer diseases. During such visits, the rest of the people would refrain from manual labor such as tilling the land while waiting in anticipation for the outcome of the elders' visit to the sacred grove. The elders visited the grove in order to give gifts to the ancestors to appease them and pray for rain or removal of diseases from the land. On many occasions, at least in case of rain, the rain would pour down even before the elders reached their residences. A good example of such sacred groves can presently be seen at Iganjo in Igawilo, approximately 15 kilometers from Mbeya city center.


Safwa people

However, in recent decades, there has been a significant change in the spirituality of the Safwas. Most of them have accepted other faiths such as Christianity and even Islam. About 22% of the Safwas adhere to different Christian denominations. This is a very radical shift for a tribe that is proud of their culture and are basically conservatives. Some of the Christian denominations that have made significant inroads in this community, and therefore have big impacts in changing the worldview of the people, include: the Assemblies of God, Roman Catholics, Seventh-day Adventists, Jehovah's Witnesses, Moravians, etc. Perhaps this diversity of denominations found in Safwaland speaks more eloquently than any other factor when it comes to how open to new ways of spirituality this group of people has become. All these denominations have trained Safwa ministers some of whom take care of their own people and others serve the larger Christian community elsewhere in the country and beyond. Today in most villages, houses of worship of different shapes and sizes may be found. This would have been impossible just a few decades ago. The Safwa people are becoming more open to the gospel of Jesus Christ. However, a large number of them remain traditionalists, especially the older generation and the not-so old folks.

Fence

Close to the fence against enemies and wild animals, all villages had a shelter or lodge for the mature men of the village to sit together, and for travelers and older youths to eat and sleep. Its maintenance was considered an obligation of the community.

Population concentration


Safwa people

Population concentration

Before the coming and domination of the Safwas had never before lived in concentrated settlements and hated them. (Not even during the early 1850s, under the Ngoni reign of terror, did they live in crowded settlements). It probably strengthened the Sangu, but increased the danger of famine for the Safwa and reduced their agricultural possibility. Since the Germans returned the Wasangu to the territory of the Wahehe, the population of the Safwa, finally free of the Wasangu, has gone from 9,000 in 1910, 15,000 in the 1920s, and 63,000 in 1957. Just as the Nyika, the Wasafwa were avid communal hunters but only after being inoculated against witchcraft. It was only after being inoculated that hunting songs and dances are performed by the people, who then waited eagerly in anticipation of the meat to be distributed on the successful return of the hunters.

Neonatal lupus erythematosus

Neonatal lupus erythematosus is an autoimmune disease in an infant born to a mother with anti-Ro/SSA and with or without anti-La/SSB antibodies.subacute cutaneous lupus erythematosus and can have systemic abnormalities such as complete heart block or hepatosplenomegaly.

Pathogenesis

Ro/SSA and La/SSB are proteins found inside cells. Anti-Ro/SSA and anti-La/SSB are antibodies that form against these proteins. These antibodies can be seen in autoimmune diseases, the most common being Lupus and Sjögren's. Mothers can have these antibodies circulating in their blood without having any signs or symptoms of an autoimmune disease.

Babies born to mothers with these antibodies have a chance of developing neonatal lupus erythematosus.anti-Ro/SSA and anti-La/SSB antibodies enter fetal circulation and affect neonatal organs by crossing the placenta using FcRn receptors. The mechanism in which the antibodies affect organs is not yet completely understood. For the heart, it is thought that these antibodies bind to cells in the heart that go through physiologic cell death during embryogenesis. This leads to heart cell injury which causes secondary fibrosis in the conduction system, ultimately causing heart block.action potentials. Disruption to action potential propagation can affect the AV and SA nodes which are part of the conduction system of the heart.

Fetal susceptibility and environmental factors could also play a role in pathogenesis since not all infants develop congenital heart block even when exposed to antibodies.

Clinical manifestations

Neonatal lupus can present with several signs and symptoms. The most common manifestations involve the heart and skin. Problems involving the liver, gallbladder, brain, and blood can be seen but are usually transient.

Heart


Neonatal lupus erythematosus

Heart

Cardiac manifestations present more commonly in utero, but can also present after birth. The most common complications are varying degrees of heart block and endocardial fibroelastosis. A large percentage of infants diagnosed with isolated congenital heart block are associated to neonatal lupus.conduction system, preventing impulses from traveling from the atria to the ventricles.bradycardia in the prenatal period, usually around the second trimester. Infants with lower grades of heart block can progress to higher grades, but they can also present with rapid onset of complete heart block.

Common complications

  * First degree heart block
  * Second degree heart block
  * Third degree heart block (Complete heart block)
  * Endocardial fibroelastosis

Other complications seen with neonatal lupus

  * Patent ductus arteriosus
  * Patent foramen ovale
  * Pulmonic stenosis
  * Pulmonary valvular dysplasia
  * Fusion of chordae tendineae of the tricuspid valve
  * Ostium secundum type atrial septal defects

Skin

A rash can be seen upon delivery. It is commonly found on the head and face, but can also be found on other parts of the body. It is most commonly seen around the eyes. The rash can be described as raised, red, and ring-shaped. The rash is not always visible at birth and can become more prominent after UV light exposure. Antibodies coming from the mother have a certain life span. Because of this, the rash usually lasts 6–8 months, resolving after the maternal antibodies are no longer in circulation. Telangiectasia has also been seen and can occur with or without the ring-shaped rash.

  * Red, ring-shaped rash of face and head
  * Telangiectasia

Liver and gallbladder

Severity in which the liver is affected can range from mildly elevated liver enzymes to liver failure.

  * Elevated transaminases
  * Hyperbilirubinemia
  * Cholestasis
  * Hepatitis

Blood

The conditions listed below have been reported with no issues of bleeding or sepsis.

  * Anemia
  * Neutropenia
  * Thrombocytopenia
  * Aplastic anemia

Brain


Neonatal lupus erythematosus

Brain

Although the conditions below have been reported, it is still uncertain that these manifestations are related to anti-Ro/SSA and anti-La/SSB antibodies.

  * Hydrocephalus
  * Macrocephaly
  * Vasculopathy
  * Hypocalcemic seizures
  * Spastic diplegia

Diagnosis

An infant is diagnosed with neonatal lupus if maternal antibodies, anti-Ro/SSA, anti-La/SSB, or less commonly anti-ribonucleoprotein, are present and if any of the clinical manifestations are present without any other explanation.

Screening

Screening includes testing for maternal antibodies and evaluating for heart block in utero. Universal screening is not recommended.echocardiogram.

Management

Infants with neonatal lupus are managed with supportive care. This means treating or monitoring the symptoms that can occur from this disease. For example, avoiding sunlight so that the infant's rash won't worsen. Many of the manifestations are transient, but once complete heart block occurs, it is irreversible. Heart block can be managed in utero if diagnosed during pregnancy. Infants born to mothers with anti-Ro/SSA and anti-La/SSB should have an ECG performed to check for heart abnormalities if none were seen while in the uterus.

In utero

Fetal heart block treatment varies based on the degree. First degree heart block is usually treated with glucocorticoids, but it can also reverse on its own. As of right now, treatment guidelines for first-degree heart block is controversial due to lack of evidence. Second degree heart block commonly progresses to complete heart block. Second degree heart block can also reverse on its own. Treatment includes fluorinated glucocorticoids and immunoglobulin therapy. Third degree heart block is irreversible, and many treatments have been attempted without success. Management is mainly expectant. Early delivery should be avoided unless other complications arise. In third degree heart block, if the ventricular heart rate drops below 50-55 beats per minute, maternal beta-antagonists can be given. Glucocorticoids and immunoglobulin therapy can be used for endocardial fibroelastosis, but effectiveness is still unclear.

Running gear (rail transport)

This article is about railway vehicle components. For nautical running gear, see running rigging.

Single axle running gear on a self-discharging hopper

In railway terminology the term running gear refers to those components of a railway vehicle that run passively on the rails, unlike those of the driving gear. Traditionally these are the wheels, axles, axle boxes, springs and vehicle frame of a railway locomotive or wagon.bogie frame with two wheelsets. However there are also wagons with single axles (fixed or movable) and even individual wheels. Since in modern times, locomotives no longer require separate driving and carrying axles (see wheel arrangement), as was formerly common with steam locomotives, but usually have bogies where all axles are driven, the term running gear is (inaccurately) superseding the term 'driving gear' in some parts of the world.

Murrayfield Amateurs F.C.

Murrayfield Amateurs Football Club was an amateur football club from Edinburgh, Scotland in the 20th century.

History

The club was founded soon after the end of the First World War and joined the Lothian Amateur League in 1921.

Senior club status

In 1928, the club joined the East of Scotland League,Scottish FA Cup. It entered the national competition for the first time in 1928-29, and, at the first time of asking, won the Scottish Qualifying Cup, hammering Thornhill 8-1 in the final at Ibrox Park, before 4,000 spectators; it marked both the first time that an amateur club had won the Qualifying Cup, and the first time that a club had won the competition in its first entry.

The clubs were drawn together in the first round proper, and Murrayfield won again. In the second round, the Amateurs held Scottish League club Arbroath to a draw (the tie being played at Heart of Midlothian's Tynecastle Park, in front of a crowd of 10,000).

That first entry turned out to be the joint-furthest the club reached in the competition, the club also reaching the second round proper in the next two seasons, but the formation of Edinburgh City F.C. as an amateur League side took away some of the amateur players in the city. The club did reach the competition proper in 1930-31 after being runners-up to Inverness Citadel in the Qualifying Cup NorthEaster Road in a second replay),1936-37. That year, the club was drawn against Scottish League club Morton at home in the first round proper, and wanted to switch the tie to Cappielow Park, but the SFA refused, instead allowing the club to play the tie on a Wednesday to avoid clashing with other matches in Edinburgh.

In the mid-1950s, the Scottish Football Association abolished the Qualifying Cup for three seasons, and the Amateurs were put into the first round, losing in the first round every time.

Grand Bleu de Gascogne

The Grand Bleu de Gascogne is a breed of hounds of the scenthound type, originating in France and used for hunting in packs. Today's breed is the descendant of a very old type of large hunting dog, and is an important breed in the ancestry of many other hounds.

Description

The Grand Bleu de Gascogne is an imposing large dog, a typical hunting pack hound of the oldest type, with a lean and muscular body, long legs, slightly domed head, long drop ears, and drooping lips. Size is 65 to 72 cm (25.6 to 28.3 ins) at the withers, females slightly smaller. Dogs of this breed should show an attitude of calm strength and nobility.

The colour of the coat is white mottled with black, giving a slate blue overall appearance. There are black patches on either side of the head, with a white area on top of the head which has in it a small black oval. Tan "eyebrow" marks are over each eye. Faults are deviations in appearance that have an effect on the health and working ability of the dog, as well as an absence of expected features of colour, structure, and size, indicating that a dog with such faults should not be bred. Faults include aggression or fearfulness, anatomical malformation, and lack of type.

Although these are large dogs, "Grand" does not necessarily refer to the size of the dogs. "In most cases it is simply a label for a pack that is used for larger game". lbs

Health and temperament

No unusual health problems or claims of extraordinary health have been documented for this breed. Temperament of individual dogs may vary.

History and use

The Grand Bleu de Gascogne ancestors were contemporaries with the St Hubert Hound and English Southern Hound,Comte de Foix kept a pack in the 14th century and Henry IV of France kept a pack in the late 16th and early 17th centuries.

The Grand Bleu de Gascogne has a long history in the US, the first dogs were bred there in the 18th century; more Grand Bleus are now in the US than France.General Lafayette presented a pack of seven Grand Bleus to George Washington in 1785, who compared their melodious voices to the bells of Moscow.


Grand Bleu de Gascogne

The Grand Bleu de Gascogne is noted for its focus on the hunt, as well as a good nose and distinctive, sonorous, deep howl, the breed is "instinctively a pack hound".deer, wolves, and boar; in the field it is considered a rather slow and ponderous worker and today is predominantly used to hunt hares.

The Grand Bleu de Gascogne has had a significant influence on the development of several breeds of scent hounds. After the French Revolution, it was used to revitalise the old Saintongeois, creating the Gascon Saintongeois, and the Bluetick Coonhound is considered a direct descendant of the Grand Bleu. The Grand Bleu de Gascogne was used by Sir John Buchanan-Jardine in the development of the Dumfriesshire Hound; in Britain, any native hounds with blue marbled coats are still referred to as 'Frenchies' after this breed.
