True North Sports & Entertainment

True North Sports and Entertainment Limited (TNSE or TNS&E) is a Canadian company based in Winnipeg, Manitoba, that owns and operates Canada Life Centre in downtown Winnipeg and the Winnipeg Jets of the National Hockey League. The company also owns the Jets' minor league affiliate, the Manitoba Moose of the American Hockey League. Aside from hockey, TNSE is also involved in real estate with True North Square, and are active in bringing concerts and other acts to Winnipeg.

History

True North Sports and Entertainment was founded in 2001 by Manitoba Moose co-owner Mark Chipman and several local investors. Their goal was to build a new entertainment and sports venue in downtown Winnipeg to help revive the city's downtown area and possibly one day bring an NHL franchise back to Winnipeg following the departure of the original Winnipeg Jets franchise to Phoenix, Arizona in 1996.

The 15,321-seat MTS Centre (later Bell MTS Place and now the Canada Life Centre) was completed in fall 2004 and became the new home of the Moose, replacing the Winnipeg Arena. The Centre was built at a cost of $133.5 million on land acquired from Osmington Incorporated, a real estate firm owned by Toronto billionaire David Thomson. In exchange for the land, Osmington took a minority share in TNSE. Chipman and Thomson, through their respective holding companies, now have complete ownership of TNSE.

In summer 2010, TNSE opened the MTS Iceplex, an arena and training complex located on the western edge of Winnipeg.

TNSE realized its goal of landing an NHL franchise in May 2011, when it purchased the struggling Atlanta Thrashers, subsequently relocating the club to Winnipeg and renaming it the Winnipeg Jets. As a result, the Moose were relocated to St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador for the 2011–12 season and rebranded as the St. John's IceCaps, and became the top minor league affiliate of the Jets.San Jose Barracuda move to TechCU Arena for the 2022-23 season.

In January 2007, Mark Chipman was invited to meet with NHL executives, including commissioner Gary Bettman, in New York to make a presentation about bringing an NHL team to Winnipeg, either through expansion or relocation. TNSE was not alone—the NHL also met with interested parties from Houston, Kansas City, Seattle, and Las Vegas, but were most impressed by the presentation from the Winnipeg group. Both Vegas and Seattle eventually got expansion teams in later years, with the former getting the Golden Knights in 2017 and the latter in 2021 with the Kraken.

In 2009, Bettman approached Chipman about the possibility of taking over the struggling Phoenix Coyotes. The Coyotes were on the verge of declaring bankruptcy and were purchased by the league out of bankruptcy court later that year. In October, Chipman made a second presentation to the league about relocating a team to Winnipeg.City of Glendale to cover the Coyotes losses for the 2010–11 season. Facing a tight deadline, city council voted in favor of the deal rather than risk losing the primary tenant of their arena.

After a failed bid to sell the team to Matthew Hulziser, the NHL and TNSE resumed their negotiations in spring of 2011. Glendale city council decided to cover the team's losses for another year, so TNSE shifted their focus on another opportunity—to acquire the Atlanta Thrashers from the Atlanta Spirit group. On the morning of 31 May 2011, the sale was finalized and announced at a press conference held at the MTS Centre. The sale and relocation of the team to Winnipeg was approved by the NHL Board of Governors on June 21.Montreal Canadiens.

Although the Jets did not qualify for the Stanley Cup playoffs in their first season, the team was very successful off the ice. It was widely believed that the Jets, playing in the league's smallest market, would require assistance through the NHL's revenue sharing program to be financially viable. However, the team's revenues in 2011–2012 exceeded expectations to the extent that they did not qualify.Forbes' 2012 NHL financial report, the Jets generated $105 million US in revenue during their inaugural season, 16th best in the league, and posted operating income of $13.3 million.

Western Airplane King Bird

The Western Airplane King Bird, named after the tyrant flycatcher (Western) Kingbird, was a 1920s US civil transport accommodating three passengers in open cockpits. Only one was built.

Design and development

The King Bird was a single bay biplane with wings of rectangular plan. The areas of the upper and lower wings were equal but the lower span was 3 ft (0.91 m) greater as they were attached to the fuselage rather than joined directly. They were braced together by inward-leaning, parallel pairs of interplane struts and supported over the fuselage on short, inverted-V cabane struts, producing a 5 ft (1.5 m) gap with 10 in (250 mm) stagger. Only the lower wing was set with dihedral (3°). Ailerons on upper and lower wings were externally interconnected.

The King Bird's fuselage had a welded steel tube structure, with the engine on a bolt-on forward frame so that various types could be fitted. The prototype was equipped with a readily available Curtiss OX-5, a 90 hp (67 kW), water-cooled V-8. Each bank of cylinder heads had its own cowling and long exhaust pipes extended away from and below the fuselage. There were two open cockpits, each with bench seats for two, the forward one under the upper trailing edge. It was normally flown from the port side, rear seat but a second set of controls could be added to the other rear seat for pilot training. The elevator was ground adjustable, though production aircraft would have offered an in-flight adjustable option. The rounded, balanced rudder also had a steel tube structure.

The King Bird's fixed undercarriage was conventional for the time, with wire-spoked, rubber-tyred wheels on a single axle which was mounted on short main legs with trailing drag struts.

Operational history

The King Bird was first flown before February 1927. By then it had been flown by several pilots, who commented on its good handling and quick rate of climb after take-off.

Phragmidium

Phragmidium is a genus of rust fungus that typically infects plant species in the family Rosaceae. It is characterised by having stalked teliospores borne on telia each having a row of four or more cells. All species have a caeoma which is a diffuse aecidium lacking a peridium.

There are a number of species of Phragmidium, most of which are restricted to one or a few host species. Examples include:

  * Phragmidium acuminatum on Rubus saxatile
  * Phragmidium bulbosum on Rubus fruticosus and Rubeus caesius
  * Phragmidium mucronatum
  * Phragmidium sterilis on Potentilla sterilis
  * Phragmidium potentillae on Potentilla anglica
  * Phragmidium rosae-pimpinellifoliae
  * Phragmidium rubi-idaei on raspberry
  * Phragmidium tuberculatum on some rose cultivars
  * Phragmidium violaceum on cultivated blackberry and loganberry

Possibly the most commonly encountered is P. mucronatum, found on most species of wild roses including Rosa canina and Rosa arvensis.

Hosts and symptoms

Phragmidium tuberculatum, also known as rose rust, is a parasitic fungus that feeds on living cells of a host plant. It can affect all species of the family Rosaceae. This includes all species of roses. Rose rust causes distortion and discoloration on stems. Sometimes it will cause galls and lesions. In the spring, there are yellow spots on the upper portion of the leaf and during the Spring and Summer there are orange spores on the abaxial surface of the leaf.

Environment

The climate most favorable to rose rust is mild temperatures with high moisture. Most of this strain of Phragmidium is found in Europe but there have been cases found in Asia and North America. Most of the cases of rose rust in the United States are found on the coasts, mainly the Pacific Coast. The Midwest is poor for this pathogen because of its extreme winter and summer temperatures.

Disease cycle


Phragmidium

Disease cycle

In the spring, the very first spores, spermatogonia, arise out of the debris on the ground and infects the young stem, distorting them and producing orange pustules. These pustules break open and infect the leaves. In the Summer, these darker orange spores called urediniospores spread through wind. Eventually in late August, the urediniospores and sori become speckled with black fascicles and dark resting spores called teliospores. The teliospores turn into aeciospores which are the spores that adhere to stems and leaves to overwinter.

Pathology

Roses infected with species of Phragmidium will show a characteristic orange mass of spores and distorted growth at specific locations on the bush. The rose may be substantially weakened and lack vigour and may die. Later in the year, small black spots or raised areas will be visible. These are telia containing overwintering teliospores.

Prevention

Rose growers recommend the use of fungicidesecological pressures affecting all species. Non-chemical controls include pruning out the spring infections as soon as possible along with collecting and destroying fallen leaves to prevent overwintering.

Akashlina

Akashlina Lyrics

"Akashlina" (Bengali: আকাশলীনা) is one of the most well-known poems written by Indian poet Jibanananda Das. It was composed in the late 1930s, and was first published in 1940 in a verse collection named Satti Tarar Timir.

Transliteration and translation

Shuronjona, oi khane jeyo nako tumi,  Suranjana never go there,
Bolonako kotha oi juboker sathe;      Talk not with that buffoon:
Fire esho Shuronjona;                 Come back
Nokhhotrer rupali agun bhora rat-e;   On this night of silvery star-fire.

Fire esho ei mathe, dhew-e            Come back to this field, to this wave;
Fire esho hridoye amar;               Come back to my heart;
Dur theke dure- aro dure              Don't go any more with that buffoon
Juboker shathe tumi jeyo nako ar.     Further and yet more far.

Ki kotha tahar sathe? tar sathe!      To him what the hell you talk,
Akasher arale akashe                  Sky beyond the sky:
Mrittikar moto tumi aj;               You seem to be clay
Tar prem ghash hoye ashe.             His love comes to you like grass.

Shuronjona tomar hridoye aj ghash,    Suranjana
tumar hridoy aj ghash;                Your heart is grass today:
Batasher opare batash-                Wind beyond the wind
Akasher opare akash.                  Sky beyond the sky?

Multiple follicular unit grafts

Multiple follicular unit grafts hair transplant technique that has been developed to complement and enhance current micro grafting and follicular unit procedures by increasing density without sacrificing naturalness.follicular unit (FU) is a naturally occurring bundle of hairs. This bundle contains anywhere from 1 to 4 hairs. A "multiple follicular unit" is a graft that contains more than one follicular unit. When combined these follicular units can total 5 to 8 hairs creating more significant results.

History

Norman Orentreich, a dermatologist in New York City, is credited for popularizing the modern hair transplant of the 20th century. mm grafts from the donor area which were to be transplanted into punch graft sites in the patient's balding area. Although Dr. Orentreich's pioneering research advanced hair transplantation, the results were unnatural, "pluggy" and extremely sparse. In the 1980s, hair transplantation techniques improved when surgeons began to use much smaller grafts called minigrafts and micrografts which produced better, natural looking results.

Today's prevailing technique is a follicular unit transplant (FUT).

Procedure

Using multiple follicular unit grafts behind the hairline which contain more than one naturally occurring follicular unit bundle, although still controversial,

Risks and Side Effects

Post operative bleeding can occur in the first few days after surgery. There may be moderate swelling anywhere from 1 to 5 days. Temporary numbness can occur and in some rare cases can last for years. There may be temporary tightness in the suture line and/or scalp sensitivity.

Cost

The cost of a hair transplant surgery using multiple follicular unit grafts can be significantly less than surgeries done with micro grafts and follicular units only. When using only FU grafts, there is a hidden cost because it will ultimately require more surgeries to achieve the same density as one surgery using multiple follicular unit grafts.

My Lands

My Lands (also known as mlgame, ML) is a browser-based multiplayer game in the genre of military-economic real-time strategy set in a fantasy world. The developers from the Elyland company promote My Lands as the very first browser MMOG.

Gameplay

My Lands is written in the Java language and is powered by flash. The game universe is a fantasy one.MMORPG features establishing in-game unions — the clans. The «gold rush» effect is encouraged by Black Gems, the game currency for purchasing various improvements.

Races

In the My Lands world, there are 4 races, each one with its own distinctive features, advantages and unique units.

  * Demons inhabit lifeless scorched volcanoes, have the highest stone mining speed, their special units include Demonesses, the unique mercenaries. Demons are allied with Drow.
  * Drow dwell in the caves of the Cursed Forrest, skilled in mining iron and wood, their special unit is Arachnid, the war mage. In cahoots with Demons.
  * Elves is a peace loving race residing in the Magic Forest; harvest the most wood, their special unit is Healer. Allied with Knights.
  * Knights represent the Light Faction, have the highest rates of winning gold and very capacious warehouses, their special units – the Carriers – stand out for their enormous backpacks. Allied with Elves.

The game universe is divided into two big factions – the Light Faction (Knights and Elves) and the Dark Faction (Demons and Drow).

Cities and villages


My Lands

Cities and villages

The very first city automatically becomes the capital of the player's kingdom. The city can be upgraded to 5th level which is the maximum level. Each city has 4 neighboring villages, in which buildings can be constructed. Cities cannot be seized, however players can capture Outer Domains belonging to other players. The capital has 51 cells for constructing buildings and cannot be removed as all rewards for quests are automatically placed in this exact city. However the capital status can be transferred to another city by means of studying the «Capital transfer» science. As the science studies continue, another 5 cities can be established. Each new city has 22 cells in the beginning. By means of upgrading the Main Building, the number of cells inside the city wall can be increased. However the city size cannot exceed the initial number of cells on the field this city was founded on. The player can remove any city, except for capital, at that all its buildings will be lost and troops leave for player's nearest city.

Outer domains and Ruins

In My Lands, Outer domains and Ruins cannot be seen on the map, unless discovered by player's Explorer units. The discovered objects are visible only to the player who discovered them and remain invisible to other players, unless they discover them too. Outer domains mine various types of resources:

  * Stone mine
  * Iron mine
  * Gold mine
  * Pit
  * Salt Lake
  * Grail

Players can pillage Outer Estates (except for Salt Lakes and Grails), seizing half of their resources and population. To be able to seize an Outer domain, one needs to study the «Outer domains» science first. Other players can defend these domains and construct defensive buildings in there. In order to succeed in seizing such a domain, those buildings must be destroyed.

Resources

My Lands is an economic MMO RPG, therefore it players will need mine and control great amounts of resources.


My Lands

* Wood is harvested by the Main Building of the city and also by the Woodcutter cabin.
  * Crops are produced by Windmills.
  * Stone is mined in Stone Quarries, in the Main Buildings of Stone mines and sometimes in Pits.
  * Gold is produced in the following buildings: Trading Post, Gold Plant, Main Buildings of Gold mines and sometimes of Pits.
  * Iron is won in Iron mines, in the Main Buildings of Iron mines and sometimes of Pits.
  * Black Gems are a special resource in My Lands, which can be gained in the course of the game.

The production speed for resources may vary depending on the parameters of the race chosen by player and on terrain mining bonuses.

Black Gems

Black Gems is the in-game My Lands currency which is bound to player's account, displayed in the upper right corner of the screen and acts as player's financial account. Black Gems can be earned in the course of the game and presented to other players. There are several ways to gain them in-game:

  * Capturing a Salt Lake. The main building in these Outer domains mine BG.
  * Black Gems can be robbed in Ruins by slaying all the monsters inside first.
  * Black Gems can be gained in the economical way by buying them for gold at the Auction (the Market building).

Black Gems cannot be robbed from players. Black Gems can be bought for real money, in order to speed up army training, city upgrades and for accelerated science studying which allows to advance faster in the game and to reinforce one's own kingdom.

Sciences

Sciences play a very important role in the game. They mark player's progress in the game: army, economy and player bonuses. The science studies require resources and time. To start studying a science, one needs to build one or a couple of buildings Alchemist Labs and choose the science to be studied in the Science window. Science is a resource common for all player's domains. The more Alchemist Labs are constructed, the higher is the science studying speed.

Heroes

Heroes are a unique war unit comparable to heroes from Travian. These units can lead player's army, ensure some remarkable bonuses and enable player to cast Scrolls and use Artifacts. In order to hire a hero, one must study the Hero managing science, construct the Tavern building and achieve the Captain rank.


My Lands

Tournaments

Tournaments have been part of the My Lands gameplay from the very beginning. As years passed by, the tournaments have only evolved further. In 2013 a brand new activity called “Underground Lakes Capture” was introduced to the game. Then as now, only advanced players with the title Suzerain can participate in the tournament. This competition targets capturing and defending the most Underground Lakes by the end of the tournament.

Runes

Runes are magic stones providing a passive bonus to players by means of engraving runic signs on the Artifacts. In order to rob runes in Stonehenges and perform magic rites, one needs to study the second level of the Alchemy science first. Runes can also be arranged in magical words. Special combinations of runes if engraved on an Artifact provide additional game bonuses to Heroes. Each runic word is meant for only 1 certain type of artifact (sword, armor, etc.) and remains inactive if engraved on an artifact of a different type.

Interaction between players

My Lands provides a broad array of interactive tools and possibilities for cooperation between players. The game features a global map with cities, in-game post, trading at the auction and market. Players' clan unions can be officially at war or sign a truce. Players can also become mentors for other players and help them master the art of developing a flourishing kingdom.

Platforms and technologies

My Lands is supported by all Windows browsers and compatible with OS X. It is also available for Android and iOS. Its Steam version was launched back in 2014. The main distinctive feature of My Lands on this platform lies within the possibility to purchase DLC packages of services and artifacts, usually at amazing discount prices when on sale.

Over, Cheshire

Over is an ancient borough, mentioned in the Domesday Book, now a part of Winsford in Cheshire West in Cheshire, England. Wharton forms the eastern part, the boundary being the River Weaver. It is said to have retained its borough status and to be the smallest borough in England.

History

Ancient origins

Over owes its origins to the ice age when melt waters from the last ice sheet left a long line of sand expanding from near Frodsham in the north to beyond Nantwich in the south. The main road through Delamere Street and Swanlow Lane follows this line and is about 200 feet (61 m) above sea level. A mile or so to the east, the River Weaver cuts a deep valley through the glacial clay. As there are few real hills in central Cheshire it would have been an ideal site for early settlers, who generally avoided valleys. Prehistoric tools have occasionally been found along the route, showing that the area had been used for many thousands of years before the first mention of the name in the Domesday Book of 1086.

Saxon times

The earliest evidence of anyone living in the area is the piece of a Saxon stone cross, which was found between the World Wars when St Chad's Church was altered. The fragment is on display near the organ today. Saint Chad was the first bishop of the Midlands in the 7th Century. There are various churches dedicated to him in Cheshire and throughout the Midlands. As it is recorded that he travelled around converting the pagans, it is possible that he converted early converts in a spring in what might have been a sacred valley at the edge of the forest. The ancient churchyard of the St Chad's church still shows a circular shape, which is usually a clue to an ancient, and often Pre-Christian, foundation. No church however is mentioned in the written records before the time of the Normans.

Norman rule


Over, Cheshire

Norman rule

The Norman Earls of Chester had a hunting lodge or summer palace at Darnhall in Over parish. There was an enclosed area where deer and wild boar were kept to be hunted by the Earl and his guests. It was there that the last Norman Earl met his death. It was rumoured that his wife, Helen, the daughter of the Prince of Wales, had poisoned him to favour the powerful aristocrat that her daughter had married. However, as this was the time of the Barons' Wars, King Henry III took control of the county and of the manor himself and even spent time at Darnhall. It was during this time that the brook there was dammed to drive three water mills and to make pools to keep fish.

The first mention of a priest is in 1307 when a Thomas de Dutton is mentioned, but it is uncertain if this was at St. Chad's or as a chaplain at Darnhall, or both. The church and responsibility for the parish was given to St. Mary's convent in Chester, who appointed the priests in charge.

King Edward I and the foundation of Vale Royal Abbey

Main article: Vale Royal Abbey

When Henry's son Edward was old enough, he was made Earl of Chester and took great pride in the county. On becoming King Edward I he granted several town charters for markets and defended Chester in readiness for wars in Wales. He also made a vow to found an abbey in Cheshire when he was in danger of shipwreck. As he had visited Darnhall and knew its quiet, secluded setting, he chose this area as a site for Cistercian monks. This religious order chose to live in the wildest places possible, bringing their farming skills to clear forest and to bring unused land into use for farming. A group of monks arrived from Dore Abbey in Herefordshire to set up the new abbey, but they were soon allowed to move to a better site that we now know as Vale Royal Abbey.


Over, Cheshire

In 1277 the king and queen arrived in the Parish of Over to lay the foundation stones of the new abbey, which was planned to be the biggest of its kind in the country. Although the Abbot became lord of the manor, the church and parish remained the property of the convent at Chester, so Over paid tithes to both the Abbey and Convent. For a period of around 50 years, between the foundation of Vale Royal and the death of Abbot Peter, the tenants and villeins of Over periodically rebelled against the abbey's overlordship, sometimes violently.

New owners

In 1545 Vale Royal Abbey and its lands were sold during the dissolution of the monasteries, with Over being purchased by Thomas Holcroft for £466.10s.1d who sold it almost at once to Edmund Pershall.

Pershall was a London merchant who saw his purchase as a long-term investment. He got regular rents and hoped the properties would increase in value. Over was sold in the middle of the 17th Century to Thomas Cholmondeley, son of Lady Mary Cholmondeley who had purchased Vale Royal Abbey.

Civil War

In 1643, Royalists escaping from Nantwich "sacked" Over. The situation during the English Civil War was very dangerous to everyone – proof of this was discovered when workmen in Nixon Drive found a little black ale mug full of silver coins, with a date range from Queen Elizabeth I to 1643. The coins were declared a treasure trove and are now at the Grosvenor Museum in Chester.

Later 17th century

A silver mace was presented by the owner of Vale Royal Abbey mansion in this time, although it is unclear exactly by whom and when. It is still in the possession of Winsford Town Council.

Daniel King, who published his history of Cheshire in 1656, described Over thus: "tis but a small thing, but I place it here because of the great prerogative that it has, for it had a mayor". He included it in the list of boroughs of Cheshire for, despite being a tiny village, its mayor was of equal rank to the mayor of Chester.

18th century

Robert Nixon, sometimes known as the 'Palatine Prophet' and who came from Over, may have lived at this time.


Over, Cheshire

The Government gave permission for artificial improvements to be made to the River Weaver in 1721 to allow large barges to reach Winsford from the port of Liverpool. At first, this was the closest that barges carrying china clay from Cornwall could get to The Potteries. The clay was then taken overland by pack horses, who in turn would bring back the finished china to be sent for export through Liverpool. In 1744, the manager of the wharf, George Wood, took control of the trade between Winsford and Stoke. He made a reasonable fortune and built Oak House, which remained a farm just off Beeston Drive before the land was purchased to build the Over Estate and Oak house remained until the mid-1980s as the de Witt family residents when the land was taken by the town council for private housing and Oak House was demolished.

That trade ended in the 1780s when the Trent and Mersey Canal carried the goods through Middlewich and bypassed the town. The canalised Weaver was, however, the inspiration for the Duke of Bridgewater's canals and later the engineer for the Weaver Navigation, Edwin Leader Williams, designed and built the Manchester Ship Canal.

19th century – the time of salt

The salt industry became firmly established in Winsford from the 1830s, bringing with it massive pollution. As the wind usually blew away from Over, it became the popular place for more wealthy people in the town to live. However, people who worked on the barges and other people working in Winsford started to develop along the old Over Lane, now the High Street. The old Borough tried to keep itself separate but had been connected by the 1860s.

In 1869 Abraham Haigh built a cotton mill at the end of what would become Well Street. He used the water supply trapped in the sand enclosed by clay on the Over Ridge to power steam engines. However, almost as soon as the building was completed most of it was destroyed, killing some of the workers who were then buried in a communal grave at St John's church where a monument records their names. A town fire engine, although ordered, had not yet been delivered by the time of the fire.

The last mayor of Over was Edmund Leigh, who held office during the Diamond Jubilee of 1897. The mayoral status of Over was by then a purely ceremonial affair, as the right of the mayor to sit in court as a magistrate had by then been removed.
