Boston Legal  is an American legal-comedy-drama created by David E. Kelley. The series, starring James Spader, with Candice Bergen, and William Shatner, was produced in association with 20th Century Fox Television for the ABC. Boston Legal aired from October 3, 2004, to December 8, 2008. The series is a spin-off of the Kelley series The Practice, and features Practice actors including Spader, Rhona Mitra, Lake Bell, and Shatner. It is set at the legal firm of Crane, Poole & Schmidt.

The Practice characters
The following characters originated during the eighth season of The Practice, before appearing as part of Boston Legal regular ensemble. Both Spader and Mitra were main Practice cast members, while Lake Bell and William Shatner recurred in the series' final episodes.

Alan Shore

Alan Shore is a brilliant lawyer with a strong moral core who nevertheless is not above obtaining ethical outcomes through unethical means. Illicit computer hacking, blackmail, disguise and bribery are all tools he uses without hesitation. Alan is, however, unwavering in his defense of the underdog (unless he is representing the other party). He is disappointed and disillusioned with how the country has changed in recent years, and routinely confronts these issues in open court. Wherever he works, he treats his coworkers with levity and refuses to take himself too seriously. Alan suffers from night terrors, has a fear of clowns, and gave up his home, preferring instead to live in hotels. He has resigned himself to the fact that he will never be made partner at the firm due to his unpredictable behavior and lack of trustworthiness; while the managing partners of Crane, Poole & Schmidt do not fully trust Alan, they do recognize his talent as an attorney. Alan is best friends with (and later husband of) Denny Crane despite their sharp differences in political ideologies.

Tara Wilson

Tara Wilson first appeared as a paralegal at Young, Frutt & Berlutti. Fired from the firm after notifying Alan of his impending dismissal, Tara is hired to work at Crane, Poole & Schmidt, the firm representing Alan's civil case. Subsequently, she became a lawyer. Tara and Alan finally began a sexual relationship following his break-up with Sally Heep, though their relationship hit a rocky patch when he hired a group of men to attack a man he had previously fought with. When Tara reconnects with one of her ex-boyfriends, the two break up, and she promptly resigns from Crane, Poole & Schmidt. Her departure leads to Alan questioning his emotional suitability for a relationship.

Sally Heep

Sally Heep first appeared as an associate at Crane, Poole & Schmidt. Introduced in The Practice, Sally began a relationship with Alan that crossed over into Boston Legal. However, after he used her to get information from a witness against their client so they could suppress his testimony, she broke up with him. Shortly after Shirley took over the Boston offices, she fired Sally for repeated errors in case preparation that called her competence as a lawyer into question. Sally returns in Season three as opposing counsel ("Whose God Is It Anyway?" and "The Verdict").

Denny Crane

A named partner of Crane, Poole & Schmidt,  Dennis 'Denny' Crane is a renowned attorney of some fifty years of practice who claims he has never lost a case, and never will. He is an eccentric who considers himself a legend and loves to say his own name to "sign" his verbal utterances. In one of the final episodes of The Practice, he explained that often people don't believe they're in the room with a legend, so he says his own name to let them know it's true. Denny suffers from memory loss and confusion as part of the early stages of Alzheimer's disease, but often refers to his troubles as "mad cow disease" when his utterances are confusing to others or when he himself becomes confused. While he is still trying cases frequently as late as Season 1 of Boston Legal, by Season 2, he seems to have lost most of his talent for complex litigation, though he still shows flair in appealing to a jury in closing arguments. By Season 3 he mostly serves as a figurehead at the firm, rarely trying cases and appearing in court more often as a plaintiff and defendant due to his antics. When he does appear in court as a lawyer in later seasons, however, he still performs well.

Denny  is a conservative who loves firearms and believes gun control is for "communists". He also refuses to defend anyone who is accused of extremely heinous acts; in one episode, he shoots a client because of the nature of his crime (raping and murdering a child). This is just one of several people he shoots over the course of the series, with several characters saying that Denny "shoots people". Denny enjoys an extremely close friendship with Alan Shore, is also a womanizer like Alan, and has no problem sleeping with the wives of judges and clients. Though he marries another woman in Season 2 (from whom he is quickly divorced after engaging in an act of infidelity at their wedding reception), he still pines for Shirley Schmidt. Denny and Alan marry in the series finale.

Boston Legal characters
The following characters first appeared in Boston Legal, and formed part of the regular ensemble. The original cast includes Spader, Bell, Mitra, Shatner, Monica Potter, and Mark Valley. Candice Bergen joined the ensemble during season one, while René Auberjonois recurred for a short time before being promoted to series regular. Julie Bowen, Justin Mentell and Ryan Michelle Bathe joined the series in the second season, while Craig Bierko, Constance Zimmer, and Gary Anthony Williams first appeared in season three. John Larroquette, Saffron Burrows, Tara Summers, and Taraji Henson joined the series in season four, as did Christian Clemenson, who had recurred since season two.

Lori Colson

A junior partner at Crane, Poole & Schmidt and former prosecutor, Lori Colson found herself inexplicably attracted to Alan during the first season. Initially, Lori focuses her efforts on practicing civil law, though after working with Edwin Poole she becomes more comfortable with criminal cases, believing them to be incredibly rewarding emotionally. Though she was close friends with Shirley Schmidt, she files a sexual harassment claim against Denny Crane in the first season. Denny later apologized to Lori, though she departed the firm shortly thereafter. Alan later comments that Shirley had "ushered" Lori out, suggesting she resigned under significant pressure from the managing partners.

Brad Chase

Brad Chase is the man who the others turn to when they need something done. He often relies on his Marine Corps background to both intimidate others and undertake physically demanding tasks. Brad is a self-proclaimed homophobe, though this manifests more as feeling uncomfortable around LGBTQ+ people than hatred or bigotry. He has even represented homosexual clients with all of his might, the same as any other clients of his. While Brad hated Alan initially, he later became slightly more tolerant of him. In the second season, Brad becomes a partner at the firm, though he finds his job at risk when he offers to pay Denny's fiancée not to marry him. Brad initially had a strong relationship with Lori Colson, though upon her departure from the firm he grows close to Denise Bauer. The two later have a child together, and marry shortly after. Shortly after the third season, he leaves the firm to begin work as an Assistant District Attorney.

Shirley Schmidt

Shirley Schmidt is a named partner of Crane, Poole & Schmidt, a firm she founded with partners Denny Crane and Edwin Poole. With a propensity to remind her younger colleagues that she's "Schmidt", Shirley is tasked with reining in Denny's preposterous behavior, directing litigation, and practicing law. Prior to founding her firm, Shirley attended Wellesley College where she met her share of intelligent Harvard students. She spent a significant amount of time in New York, before being called to Boston by Paul Lewiston. Shirley used to have a romantic relationship with Denny, a past she now views with sardonic detachment, often making jokes about it. She is portrayed as extremely desirable in the series: smart, sexy, and sought after by many of the men around her, including her ex-husband Ivan Tiggs and fellow lawyers Denny, Alan, Jeffrey Coho and Carl Sack. She eventually marries Carl Sack in the series finale.

Paul Lewiston

Paul Lewiston is a managing partner of the Boston office and legal advisor of Crane, Poole & Schmidt. Paul is skilled in client relations and is an expert in Far Eastern markets and legal problems of corporations doing business in that part of the world. Unlike Denny and Alan, Paul generally does things strictly "by the book." He has had several antagonistic run-ins with Denny and Alan over their apparent lack of respect for the law. His middle-aged daughter, Rachel, is introduced in Season 2 as a meth addict, and Paul has her abducted and placed in a rehab center. He takes custody of her daughter (his granddaughter) Fiona. After this, being tied up with being a father figure to his grandchild, he is seldom seen in the Boston office. It was Lewiston who negotiated the acquisition of Crane, Poole & Schmidt by a Chinese law firm in the series finale, though he later begins to regret this action.

Denise Bauer

Denise Bauer was introduced as an aggressive young attorney at the start of the show's second season. A senior associate at Crane, Poole & Schmidt, Denise is thrown when, on her first day in Boston, her husband files for divorce and insists that she pay him so he can live while setting up his career as a mediocre golf pro. Her distractions over the divorce cause her trouble with some cases, though she later settles on compensating her husband with a single-time alimony payment of one hundred thousand dollars. In season two, Denise begins a relationship with a terminally ill man named Daniel Post, a romance that leads to her travelling to a haunted house to retrieve his head following his death. Denise's first professional blow is delivered when she is passed over for partnership in Spring 2006, despite being considered a safe bet. In season three, Denise discovers she is pregnant with Brad's baby, and as of the seventeenth episode, she had decided to have the baby. She later marries Brad Chase, and after taking extended maternity leave, accepts a partner position at a different law firm. She later returns as opposing counsel. She is shown to be fluent in Italian.

Garrett Wells

Garrett Wells was introduced in the second-season premiere as a brash young attorney who is obviously attracted to Denise. He does go over her head with some clients but aids her by blackmailing her ex-husband's attorney/pastor to get him to back down from his demands for money. He is not all that effective in the courtroom, being humiliated on more than one occasion by no-nonsense judges. He is also intimidated by Catherine Piper, the caterer and former assistant to Alan Shore, who actually runs him out of his own office. He is not seen after the end of Season 2. It is unclear whether he is still with the firm or was let go by the partners, absent any explanation. During season two he begins a relationship with a paralegal, initially bringing disgrace to the firm due to their mistimed sexual encounters.

Sara Holt

Sara Holt is a smart lawyer who isn't above using her own beauty to help her client. A first year associate, Sara is shown to be good friends with her colleague Garrett Wells, and the two often conspire to win cases by unethical means - the most notable of which involved seducing and blackmailing a minister. Sara works primarily with Denise Bauer, though she entertains the idea of a relationship with Alan Shore, and the two date on one occasion. She departs the series in season two, absent any explanation.

Jeffrey Coho

Jeffrey Coho is an intense, grandiose criminal defense attorney from the New York City branch of Crane, Poole & Schmidt who joins the Boston firm in Season 3, accompanied by Claire Simms. Jeffrey is as comfortable with making enemies as he is making friends. He had a fleeting relationship with Denise, and as such is cordially despised by Brad Chase. After finding out that Denise's baby is not his, Jeffrey leaves the firm in episode fifteen of Season three, wearing his Buzz Lightyear costume.

Claire Simms

Claire Sims is a smart, sexy lawyer who, along with Jeffrey Coho, joins the firm in the second episode of Season three. She did undercover work in the Scott Little case, and has a penchant for flirting with witnesses. Claire initiated a relationship with Clarence Bell, who was first her assistant and later a fellow associate. She was written out following the end of season three, absent any explanation.

Clarence Bell

Also known as Clarice, Clevant and "Oprah." In his default persona, Clarence is hopelessly shy and introverted, and frequently has trouble maintaining eye contact. To deal with this drawback, he role-plays as other people who embody the characteristics he cannot. He originally sued his place of employment for gender discrimination. He is hired by CP&S as Claire Simms' assistant, and after it is discovered he is a law school graduate who has been admitted to the bar, he becomes an associate. For a time, he and Claire are an item. Joining the Litigation Division, he and Jerry Espenson become friends, and he enjoys something of a mentoring relationship with Carl Sack. He disappeared at the end of Season 4 with no explanation.

Carl Sack

A senior partner at Crane, Poole & Schmidt, Carl transferred from the New York City office to help Shirley in managing the Boston branch following the withdrawal of Paul Lewiston from a leadership role to concentrate on raising his granddaughter. He is initially unable to come to terms with the carefree conduct of the Boston office and once considers moving back to New York. However, he finds his footing in the Boston office, becoming a mentor to the associates, particularly Katie Lloyd, Clarence Bell and Jerry Espenson. He also falls in with the sometimes surreal legal activities of the Litigation Division, notably by filing a lawsuit against the broadcast television networks in which the plaintiffs demanded that they air programs for people with working brains. Carl is an old flame of Shirley's and proposes to her in "Thanksgiving." Shirley and Carl are married in a civil ceremony by Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia at Nimmo Bay in the series finale.

Jerry Espenson

An attorney diagnosed  with Asperger's syndrome, whose quirks include purring whenever he feels anxious and upset; constantly exclaiming "Bingo!" as an affirmative; hopping when excited; and awkwardly walking with his hands pressed to his thighs (which earned him the moniker "Hands Espenson" among the other CP&S attorneys). Since his diagnosis, Jerry has received mental and behavior modification therapy which has increased his confidence in dealing with people. Before his disorder was diagnosed, he was arrested for holding a knife to Shirley's throat after being denied partnership in the firm for the third time. Shirley dropped the charges against him after Alan promised to get Jerry the therapy he needed. After therapy, he founded his own successful law firm and opposed Alan Shore in several cases, defeating him in court despite Alan's employment of various tricks intended to rattle him. Jerry was able to use his firm and its client list as leverage to rejoin CP&S, moving from the Corporate Law department to Litigation, where he was surprisingly successful, to the delight of Alan and Shirley. Alan has even admitted that he considers Jerry to be one of the finest attorneys he has ever known. He made partner in the final season, following a declaration of support from Denny Crane and an eloquent speech of his own to the partners. Carl Sack, who had initially been dubious about him, was proud to extend the offer of partnership in the firm to Jerry. Jerry attended Harvard University, where he obtained J.D. and MBA degrees.

Lorraine Weller

An Englishwoman by birth, Lorraine came to America as a result of an agreement with the British government. She had been a high class madam in London, with a string of escorts who serviced very senior members of the British government (and, it was rumored, the Royal Family). Her current citizenship is unclear, though it  may be presumed she is a naturalized American. She graduated from Harvard Law School and was admitted to the Massachusetts bar. Joining Crane Poole & Schmidt as a litigator, her background is discovered by Whitney Rome and Katie Lloyd—who also discover, following Jerry's losing his virginity to an escort who had fallen for him, that Lorraine is still a practitioner of "the oldest profession," running strings of high-priced escorts in Boston, New York, and Washington, DC. Shortly after this information became known at the firm, Lorraine left Crane, Poole & Schmidt. Whether she resigned or was fired is unclear.

Whitney Rome

A strong-willed associate who transferred to Crane, Poole & Schmidt's New York offices after a break-up. In her arrival at the firm, Whitney is immediately thrown into a case involving a bullfighting child whose mother wants sole custody.

Katie Lloyd

A young associate from England and a recent Harvard Law graduate, she is taken under the wing of Shirley Schmidt and assigned to share an office with Jerry Espenson, with whom she tries cases frequently and develops a platonic friendship and later romantic relationship.

Notable recurring cast and characters

 Judge Clark Brown (played by Henry Gibson, 24 episodes): A Boston judge the Crane, Poole & Schmidt lawyers appear before often and even take on as a client in one episode. A 70-year-old who still lives with his mother, Judge Brown likes to humiliate criminals he convicts in addition to normal punishment. Although Judge Brown claims to be a "conscientious fact finder", both Alan and Denny are able to appeal to his insecurities to gain favorable rulings. Initially thought to be a virgin, Brown admitted to having relationships with men in the Season 3 episode "Selling Sickness." He also often utters strong adjectives like "Shocking!" or "Disgusting!" during witness testimony, and often describes things as "Outrageous!" Despite his eccentricities, Brown often delivers thoughtful and eloquent verbal opinions on his cases and is willing to entertain unconventional but moral lawsuits.
 Bethany Horowitz (played by Meredith Eaton-Gilden, 18 episodes): A feisty dwarf attorney nicknamed "The Badger", and an on-again-off-again romantic interest of Denny. Bethany is also the daughter of an old girlfriend of Denny's. At one point it was suspected Bethany was actually Denny's daughter, which theory was disproved by DNA tests. Bethany ultimately was unable to reconcile the fact her mother had had a relationship with Denny, plus the fact that she was a practicing Jew while Denny was (nominally) Christian, and the two parted for good.

  (played by Betty White, 16 episodes): Alan's former assistant, first introduced in The Practice. A church-going woman who enjoyed being privy to the goings-on at Crane, Poole & Schmidt, Catherine took to the matricidal Bernard Ferrion in an attempt to introduce him to God. Convinced Ferrion would kill again, she later murdered him. With Alan's representation, Catherine was acquitted of the crime but was subsequently fired by Shirley. However, Catherine returned and was hired as a food delivery person at Crane, Poole & Schmidt and even after retiring from that job continued to be a frequent client of the firm for numerous reasons.
  (played by Jill Brennan, 13 episodes): A thinly-veiled parody of Nancy Grace. Jane frequently uses her television program to comment on high-profile cases the firm is trying and has a relationship with Denny, first meeting him while filling in as a guest-host on Larry King Live.
Melissa Hughes (played by Marisa Coughlan, 12 episodes): Alan's former assistant. Alan hires her to replace Catherine Piper, and enlists her to help him combat his night terrors. He helps her discharge her credit card debt and avoid jail time for tax evasion and falls briefly for her, only to later reject her advances.
 Judge Robert Sanders (played by Shelley Berman, 11 episodes): A crotchety old judge, who seems to be senile and utters comic-sounding phrases such as "jibber-jabber" and "poopycock." He also, in a jab by the writers at then-President George W. Bush, frequently claims to be "the decider." Judge Sanders  often appears oblivious to the rules of evidence, blatantly sustaining and overruling objections incorrectly, and can be manipulated by attorneys, particularly Alan Shore. He also married Brad Chase and Denise Bauer in the labor room of a hospital moments before the baby was born after Denise went into labor at her wedding, because Brad insisted no child of his would come into the world a bastard.

 Doris Thumper (played by Yvette Nicole Brown, 2 episodes): A friend of Clarence Bell who is a shy and recovered borderline agoraphobic but is a talented singer. She is introduced in the Season 4 episode entitled "Green Christmas ". Clarence informs her that he must drop out of the singing competition if he wants to keep his job at the Law Firm once a video of them performing goes viral but later on is able to keep his job and continue to sing in the competition . By the end of the episode Doris and Clarence advance to the semifinals after singing "Big Blonde and Beautiful" from the musical Hairspray.
 ADA Frank Ginsberg (played by Currie Graham, 9 episodes): An assistant district attorney with political ambitions. He wants to get elected district attorney, and has tried to further this goal by promoting himself to the public with cases of questionable merit. Some instances of his misguided intentions include prosecuting a sexual surrogate and her patient (Jerry) for prostitution, trying to imprison a homeless man who cannibalized a dead body when death by starvation became imminent, and attempting to put Denny behind bars for illegally exporting medical waste. On each occasion, Ginsberg's plans to use his cases as sensational self-promotion were ruined (typically by Alan Shore) when his targets were acquitted.
 Lincoln Meyer (played by David Dean Bottrell, 8 episodes): A campy eccentric, Meyer was a witness in the murder trial of his neighbor, a female judge on whom he had an unrequited crush. Meyer is a lonely peeping Tom, and is revealed to have developed psychosis, which causes him to sue anyone who calls out his eccentricity, and later cause physical harm to the point of murdering the judge who denied his motion, trying to murder a TV show hostess, and even kidnapping Shirley following her refusal to go out on a date. Meyer's house is eventually raided by the police following a hunch from the Crane, Poole & Schmidt partners and associates, and he is shot in the chest by his own crossbow, which he set up as a booby trap to prevent Shirley's rescue.
 Judge Harvey Cooper (played by Anthony Heald, 8 episodes): First introduced in The Practice, Judge Cooper becomes a nemesis of Alan Shore, Denny Crane and Jeffrey Coho. A transplant from Los Angeles to Boston, he frequently puts unnecessary emphasis on the syllables in Massachusetts. After presiding over several high-profile trials involving Crane, Poole & Schmidt, he appeals for their help in representing him in the Season 4 finale.
 Judge Gloria Weldon (played by Gail O'Grady, 7 episodes): A beautiful judge that Alan rekindles a relationship with during Seasons 3 and 4. They eventually split over her desire to have children and Alan's reluctance.
 Daniel Post (played by Michael J. Fox, 6 episodes): Denise's love interest with terminal lung cancer. Daniel is a hugely wealthy businessman who initially goes to Denise for help winning a case against a man who is suing him for using his influence to get a test drug that might save his life. Their relationship develops until he restarts his radiation therapy and then goes off to Europe, presumably to die. Daniel returns in the season finale, alive, and proposes to Denise. In the third season, he dies during a lung transplant, however, and his remains are lost on the black market. Denise was able to recover his head in a haunted house Halloween attraction in Salem, Massachusetts.
 Bernard Ferrion (played by Leslie Jordan, 6 episodes): A short statured man, who whacked his mother over the head with a frying pan and proceeded to hire Alan as his lawyer. Bernard's mother dies shortly thereafter, but manages to tell about Bernard's act; however, Alan manages to acquit Bernard due to lack of evidence. Bernard's neighbor witnesses the killing, and for fear of incrimination, Bernard murders her in the same manner. He seeks Alan's help once more, but Alan deems him evil and turns him over to Tara, who also acquits him due to lack of evidence. Bernard keeps returning to Crane, Poole & Schmidt in unsuccessful attempts to regain his friendship with Alan, and befriends Catherine, who tries to "save his soul" by introducing him to religion. However, as Bernard keeps displaying signs of willingness to kill again just for the thrill and attention, Catherine starts to fear for her own life, and so kills Bernard in the same manner he killed his mother and neighbor, and hides his body in a freezer.
  (played by Christopher Rich, 6 episodes): A Texan lawyer and Alan's nemesis. He is extremely (but falsely) friendly and charming, and uses this as a strategy in nearly all his cases. Only once does he drop his facade, revealing him to be a cold, amoral and manipulative lawyer. Alan immediately despises him, and he occupies the role of an antagonist until near the end of the show, where he defends Denny and Alan from adultery charges. This leads to Melvin and Denny becoming good friends, which irritates Alan further.
 Chelina Hall (played by Kerry Washington, 5 episodes): Prior to coming to work for Crane, Poole & Schmidt in Boston, Chelina worked on behalf of death row inmates for the Texas Innocence Project by petitioning the Texas High Court to reconsider execution sentence. She lost her temper during her final appearance before the court, calling the chief judge "a disgusting, fat pig." Later, when one of her previous cases comes up for appeal, Chelina fears this incident may have prejudiced the judge against her and convinces Alan to argue the case in her stead. She was originally intended to appear in several episodes near the end of the first season, but when these episodes were retooled to appear at the beginning of the second season, her burgeoning romance with Alan was apparently cut short. Alan re-encounters Chelina in the second-season episode "Race Ipsa" (actually a holdover from season one) and in a comment that broke the fourth wall, Alan says that she has left the show "to be in movies" (which she did in real life), also making reference to the change in the show's airing time.
 Beverly Bridge (played by Joanna Cassidy, 5 episodes): A woman that Denny meets, courts and marries in short order during Season 2. Other members of the firm are concerned she is a gold-digger only after Denny's money and that she will force him to retire and cash out his stake in the firm. The two divorce after Denny commits adultery at their wedding reception.

 Bella Horowitz (played by Delta Burke, 5 episodes): Mother of Bethany, Bella attempts to rekindle her relationship with Denny while her daughter is dating him. She also claims Denny is Bethany's father, only to see this claim dis-proven.
 Barbara Little (played by Katey Sagal, 5 episodes): The mother of Scott Little and a key player in the high-profile murder case the firm tries throughout the beginning of Season 3. She is secretly carrying on an incestuous relationship with Scott and commits perjury to prevent him from being convicted.
 ADA Christopher Palmer (played by William Russ, 5 episodes): A frequent nemesis of the firm, Palmer usually appears in cases as an advocate for gun control.
  (played by Larry Miller, 4 episodes): Named Partner at Crane, Poole & Schmidt. Edwin arrived at a staff meeting pantless and was sent to a psychiatric hospital in the first few minutes of the pilot. He later escaped, much to Denny's concern, and he successfully participated in one case before deciding to go back. He returned again for one episode in Season 2 after being released, focusing his efforts on finding someone to sue. Edwin returned to the hospital on Shirley's advice. He reappeared in the final season, released from the hospital and retired, as the foster parent of a black boy and was present at the Thanksgiving Day dinner where Carl Sack asked Shirley to marry him and the possibility of the firm going under was discussed.
 Marlene Stanger (played by Parker Posey, 4 episodes): A stone-cold, ruthless attorney. Known at her old firm as "The Squid" (apparently the only animal that can kill a shark, a term commonly used to describe someone with aggressive ambition in the legal or corporate world), Marlene is not above using underhanded tactics to win cases, and specializes in undermining her associates. She finds herself very unnerved by Alan, and eventually had sex with him in his office. Her hostile relationship with Denise led to the ruining of Denise's chance to make partner. At the end of Season 2, in accordance with the contract by which she joined Crane, Poole & Schmidt Marlene was made a partner; but in the third-season premiere, she transferred from Boston to the New York office.

 Ivan Tiggs (played by Tom Selleck, 4 episodes): Shirley Schmidt's ex-husband and a womanizer. After announcing his engagement to his sixth wife Missy, he attempted to rekindle his former relationship with Shirley, saying he would dump Missy if Shirley would take him back. When Shirley refused, he married Missy and later lied about leaving her to reunite with Shirley. The ploy worked, and he and Shirley were briefly reunited. When Shirley learned of his deception, she drafted a "post-nuptial agreement" that would relinquish virtually all of Ivan's possessions to Missy if he were ever caught cheating on her. He attempted to legally void the agreement (with Alan as his representation), but eventually handed everything over to Missy if Shirley would give him another chance. Shirley refused, saying "I can't love you anymore," and Ivan was last seen alone and penniless.
 Missy Tiggs (played by Meredith Patterson, 4 episodes): The eccentric, obnoxious, Broadway musical-loving, singing, snort-laughing, and very young sixth ex-wife of Ivan Tiggs. Despite the fact she is marrying her ex-husband, Shirley befriends her and even serves as the maid of honor at Ivan and Missy's wedding. After divorcing Ivan, she is last seen when brought into court by a black man with whom she had protected sex, after Missy took his sperm from a condom and used it to impregnate herself with an "Obama baby." The black man brought suit against her, which case was resolved to the satisfaction of no one. It is unknown if Missy gave birth or not as she disappeared after that episode.
 Rachel Lewiston (played by Jayne Brook, 4 episodes): Paul Lewiston's estranged daughter who is addicted to crystal meth. The two reconnect and Paul discovers he has a granddaughter, Fiona. He enlists Brad Chase to force Rachel to go to rehab and takes custody of Fiona, only to have Brad fall for Rachel.
 ADA Holly Raines (played by Ana Ortiz, 4 episodes): An assistant district attorney with whom Alan and Brad clash during Season 2. She attempts to obtain employment at the firm with the help of Alan, only to be disrespected by Brad, and later faces him in court.
 Joanna Monroe (played by Jane Lynch, 4 episodes): A sexual surrogate who retains Alan's services as a lawyer multiple times, as Alan is a former client of hers. She also provides sexual surrogacy for Jerry Espenson to combat his intimacy issues.
 Leigh Swift (played by Mary Gross, 4 episodes): A woman with Paraphilia and Asperger's syndrome becomes a client of and girlfriend to Jerry Espenson. The two break up because of her intense, violent jealousy of Katie Lloyd.
 Emma Path (played by Pamela Adlon, 4 episodes): A lawyer that frequently appears against Alan Shore and who is the target of his sexual harassment.
 Nora Jacobs (played by Jodi Lyn O'Keefe, 3 episodes): assistant to Alan Shore (he flirts with her which causes her to feel uncomfortable and harassed)
  (played by Freddie Prinze, Jr., 3 episodes): A young lawyer who was believed to be Denny's illegitimate son, the product of an affair with an anonymous woman. Denny, however, did not see him for fifteen years. Denny later confessed to Alan that when Donny's mother slapped him with a paternity suit, he settled, and Donny's mother later admitted that he wasn't the father. Many jokes were made about the closeness of Donny and Denny's names. When Donny found out that Denny was not his biological father, he was crushed, and his relationship with Denny became very strained; however, Denny still considers him his son and has referred to him as such on occasion. Just like Denny, Donny uses his own name as an exclamation at inappropriate times.
Judge Robert Thompson (played by Howard Hesseman, 3 episodes): A laid-back and unorthodox judge whose trademark is that he almost never actually sits on the bench when hearing a case, preferring to lean against the witness stand or the jury box during testimony (a fact which greatly unnerves Jerry Espenson).
  Professor Clifford Cabot (played by Ed Begley Jr., 3 episodes): A sexology professor who is a longtime and frequent client of the firm.
Dana Strickland (played by Rachelle Lefevre, 3 episodes): A high-priced escort prostitute who works for Lorraine Weller who became Jerry Espenson's "girlfriend." She sued Jerry for sexual assault. Later on, she gets arrested for prostitution and asks for Jerry's help, but is faced with a difficult choice of walking free by revealing who her boss, Lorraine, is. She decides she will not take the deal and flip on Lorraine. She never arrives to court, missing her hearing and when asked by Katie and Jerry if she knows where she is, Lorraine shrugs off the question and denies knowing anything. She is never heard from again, nor mentioned.

Hemaris is a genus of sphinx moths in the subfamily Macroglossinae, which is native to the Holarctic. Their main host plants are herbs and shrubs of the teasel and honeysuckle families. Moths in genus Hemaris are known collectively as clearwing moths or hummingbird moths in the US and Canada and bee hawk-moths in Britain. The related Old World hummingbird hawk-moths, genus Macroglossum, are similar in appearance and habits. Both genera have tails that are provided with an expansile truncated tuft of hairs, but only Hemaris has the disc of the wings transparent, as these scales are dropped soon after eclosion.

Description
The eggs are small, spherical, and pale glossy green in color. Host plants include shrub and vining honeysuckles and teasels.

The larvae are small, cylindrical, and covered in granules that often have small bristles. Most larvae are green, brown, and gray, but there are many color forms. All have a distinctive pale dorsolateral longitudinal stripe from head to horn.

The pupa is enclosed in a loosely spun cocoon, and is glossy in most species. There is a prominent tubercle or hook alongside each eye. The cremaster of the chrysalis is large and flattened.

The imagoes, or adults, are small, diurnal moths that resemble bumblebees in shape. They are often mistaken for hummingbirds. The forewings are fully scaled, but in some species patches of scales are lost during the first flight, leaving a glassy hyaline area on each wing. The antennae are strongly clubbed in both sexes and each has a small, recurved hook at the end. The abdomen ends in a large fan of setae.

The genitalia of the male are asymmetrical; the uncus is divided into two subequal lobes and is sclerotized. The ostium bursae, or genital opening, of the female is angled to the left.

Species
There are 23 accepted species. Four species are native to North and South America, and three to Europe.
 Hemaris aethra (Strecker, 1875) – Diervilla clearwing
 Hemaris affinis Bremer, 1861 – honeysuckle bee hawkmoth

Kråkstad ist eine Ortschaft in der norwegischen Kommune Nordre Follo, gelegen in der Provinz (Fylke) Viken. Der Ort hat  Einwohner (Stand: ) und bildete bis 1964 eine eigene Gemeinde.

Geografie
Kråkstad ist ein sogenannter Tettsted, also eine Ansiedlung, die für statistische Zwecke als ein Gebiet gezählt wird. Der Ort liegt südöstlich der Stadt Ski und etwa 30 Kilometer südlich von Oslo in der ehemaligen Provinz Akershus. Durch die Ortschaft fließt die Kråkstadelva. An Kråkstad vorbei führt im Süden die Europastraße 18 (E18), die eine Verbindung nach Oslo herstellt. Im Norden des Ortes befindet sich ein Bahnhof, der von Zügen der Østfoldbanen angefahren wird.

Geschichte
Im Jahr 1837 wurde die Kommune Kråkstad gegründet. Diese hatte bis 1964 Bestand, als die Gemeinde Kråkstad in die Kommune Ski überging. Die Kommune Ski wurde im Rahmen der landesweiten Kommunalreform zum Ende des Jahres 2019 aufgelöst und der Ort Kråkstad gehört seitdem der zum 1. Januar 2020 gegründeten Kommune Nordre Follo an.

Im Jahr 1882 wurde, nachdem die Bahnstrecke von Ski nach Sarpsborg gebaut wurde, der Bahnhof von Kråkstad geöffnet. Der Bahnhof steht mittlerweile unter Denkmalschutz. Die Kirche Kråkstad kirke wurde im Jahr 1150 errichtet.

Name
Der Ort wurde um das Jahr 1300 unter anderem als "Krakustadir", "Krakostadir" und "Krakastadir" erwähnt. Der Name setzt sich aus den beiden Teilen "Kráka" und "stad" zusammen, wobei sich ersterer vom Flussnamen "Kráka" ableitet. Dieser wiederum stammt von der Bezeichnung für Krähen ab.

 Ingrid Bjoner (1927–2006), Opernsängerin

Theodor Wilhelm Paul Parey, född den 23 mars 1842 i Berlin, död där den 31 mars 1900, var en tysk bokförläggare.

Parey anställdes efter slutade studier vid Karl Wiegandts och Gustav Hempels bokförlag i Berlin, vari han sedan ingick som delägare för att 1877 helt överta förlaget. År 1881 antogs firmanamnet Paul Parey. Förlaget kom snart att inta en ledande ställning för litteraturen inom jordbrukets, trädgårdsskötselns och skogsbrukets områden. En mängd viktiga arbeten och flera större tidskrifter utgick under årens lopp därifrån, en god del därav på Pareys eget initiativ, inte sällan med avsevärda ekonomiska uppoffringar. För sina förtjänster härvidlag utnämndes Parey 1894 till filosofie hedersdoktor vid universitetet i Halle. Förlaget förblev länge det främsta på sitt område i Tyskland.

è un asteroide Apollo che divenne famoso in breve tempo al momento della sua scoperta, avvenuta alla fine di agosto del 2003, quando i media dichiararono, basandosi su una relazione preliminare, che vi era la possibilità, 1:250.000, di collisione con la Terra il 21 marzo 2014.

Rischio d'impatto
 ha un diametro di circa , e una massa di circa , e viaggia a una velocità di . Se dovesse colpire la Terra, sprigionerebbe energia di circa 350.000 megatoni (1,5 ZJ), sufficiente a provocare danni a livello mondiale.

Nel settembre 2003 la NASA diede l'annuncio del rischio d'impatto con la terra, alzando il livello di rischio nella scala Torino a 1, basandosi su osservazioni effettuate alla fine del mese precedente. Successive misurazioni nel mese di settembre hanno fornito dati più precisi per il calcolo della traiettoria, riportando il livello di rischio ad un più tranquillo 0.

La Dr. Sara Russell, una ricercatrice di meteoriti al Museo di storia naturale di Londra, ha affermato alla BBC che non era preoccupata del fatto che  potesse essere un pericolo.

A marzo del 2014 l'asteroide transitò a 19 milioni di chilometri dalla terra, come previsto senza alcun rischio, e l'evento fu seguito in diretta sul web.

Thomas J. Galbraith (1825–1909) was an American politician. In 1857, he signed the Republican version of the Minnesota State Constitution. Galbraith served in the Minnesota Territorial House of Representatives in 1856. He then served the 18th district in the Minnesota State Senate in 1861, living in Scott County at the time. In 1862, Galbraith worked as an Indian agent for the Bureau of Indian Affairs at the Lower Sioux Agency, succeeding Joseph R. Brown.

On August 15, 1862, he was involved in a confrontation with  Mdewakanton tribesmen and his trading partner Andrew Myrick at the Lower Sioux Agency.  Galbraith refused to distribute food on credit, although they were suffering hunger and the government's treaty annuity was late. It proved one of many causes of the Dakota War of 1862 that began twelve days later.  Myrick, who made derogatory comments in the incident, was killed on August 18, 1862 while Galbraith managed to escape. When the hostilities were over he compiled a list of the known Minnesotans casualties both civilian and military.  He died in Cheyenne, Wyoming February 3,1909, where he was a resident for many years .

Дубровачки друм (), или Дрински друм (), био је средњовјековни трговачки пут преко планине Динаре који је повезивао Дубровник, Дубровачку републику, са долином ријеке Дрине, а одатле са разним мјестима у средњовјековној Босни, Србији и остатком Балкана.

Путања друма је ишла преко Требиња, Билеће, Гацка, Фоче, Горажда, Вишеграда и Сребренице. Од Требиња, пут се рачвао ка Зетском друму. Од Фоче, рачва се ка Војничком друму који је водио до Ниша. Од Сребренице, друм је водио до Сремске Митровице.

Дубровачки друм је био један од два главна пута која су водила из Дубровника; други пут је Неретвански друм који је пратио долину ријеке Неретве.

A constitutional referendum was held in Rhodesia on 30 January 1979. It followed the Internal Settlement drawn up between Prime Minister Ian Smith and Abel Muzorewa, leader of the non-violent UANC. The new constitution would bring in black majority rule in the country, which would be renamed Zimbabwe Rhodesia. The settlement was supported by the ruling Rhodesian Front, but opposed by the Rhodesian Action Party, which had broken away from the Front.

The referendum was open only to white voters, passing by 85%. Voter turnout was 71.5%.

Despite the transition to majority rule following elections in April, the country remained unrecognised by the international community, and the Patriotic Front parties continued the Bush War until the signing of the Lancaster House Agreement and fresh elections in 1980.

Paul Anthony Lo Duca (né le  à Brooklyn, New York) est un receveur évoluant en Ligue majeure de baseball. Il est actuellement agent libre après avoir joué pour les Dodgers de Los Angeles, les Marlins de la Floride, les Mets de New York et les Nationals de Washington.

Lo Duca a été cité en 2007 dans le rapport Mitchell sur le dopage dans le baseball majeur.

Carrière universitaire
En 1990, Paul Lo Duca sort diplômé du lycée Apollo de Glendale (Arizona). Lors de ses deux dernières années au sein de l'équipe de baseball du lycée, il obtient une moyenne au bâton de 0,441 en troisième année et 0,470 en quatrième année. Malgré ses performances à la frappe, son 1,75 mètre ne convainc pas les recruteurs des équipes professionnelles. Il rejoint le  et frappe avec une moyenne au bâton de 0,449 et 0,461 lors de ses deux saisons au community college. En 1993, il joue pour l'équipe des Devils d'Arizona State University
. Lors de sa seule saison pour l'équipe d'ASU, Lo Duca est nommé Joueur de l'Année par le magazine The Sporting News, battant des records de l'université avec une moyenne au bâton de 0,446 et 129 coups sûrs. Avec 14 circuits et 88 points produits, il participe au tournoi final universitaire (College World Series). Il est aussi finaliste du prestigieux Golden Spikes Award (meilleur joueur universitaire de la saison) et sa série de 37 matchs avec au moins un coup sûr est la seconde plus longue dans l'histoire de l'université. Sa saison marquante lui vaut d'être choisi par les Dodgers de Los Angeles au  de la draft 1993 ( global).

Carrière professionnelle
En dépit de ses succès à l'école, Lo Duca passa quelques années en Minor League chez les San Antonio Missions avant de finalement terminer l'année 2001 avec les Los Angeles Dodgers à l'âge de 29 ans.
Lo Duca est souvent comparé à ses prédécesseurs chez les Dodgers, Mike Scioscia et Mike Piazza: tous les trois étaient des receveurs doués et populaires qui avaient "grandis" au sein de l'organisation des Dodgers et tous les trois étaient de descendance italo-américaine. D'un autre côté, la plus grande force de Lo Duca est en tant que frappeur de contact, comme Scioscia et Piazza (bien que ce dernier soit plus puissant).
Depuis qu'il est un joueur indispensable en Major League, Lo Duca a enregistré quelques-unes des meilleures statistiques pour les receveurs et fut par trois fois intégré à la All-Star Game. En 2002, il était un des meilleurs frappeurs de contact des majors; seul Jason Kendall fut retiré moins souvent que lui et personne n'eut un meilleur pourcentage de battés/manqués.
En 2003, sa suite de 25 parties avec coups sûrs fut la seconde plus longue dans l'histoire des Los Angeles Dodgers et, en défense, il fut premier de la National League en ce qui concerne les éliminations de joueurs tentant de voler un but.
En 2004, il fut en tête de la National League en ce qui concerne les points produits, et cela malgré avoir été transféré à la mi-saison chez les Florida Marlins.
En défense, en 2004, il laissa passer 93 vols de buts, plus qu'aucun autre receveur en Major League.

Saison 2006
Lo Duca fut échangé aux New York Mets contre deux joueurs de Ligue Mineure avant la saison 2006.

Il fit partie de la All-Star Team 2006 et amena les Mets à 97 victoires contre 65 défaites.
Il amena son équipe aux playoffs.
Lo Duca eut beaucoup de succès en 2006, frappant 0.318, son record depuis 2001. Il inscrivit "seulement" 49 points produits alors que l'attaque des Mets étaient très puissante cette année.
Il inscrivit également une moyenne sur but de 0,355, son record de carrière.

Allégations de dopage

En , Lo Duca a été nommé dans le rapport Mitchell sur le dopage au baseball majeur. Il aurait, selon cette enquête, accepté des stéroïdes du revendeur Kirk Radomski, qui aurait fourni aux auteurs du rapport trois chèques signés par Lo Duca au montant de 3200 dollars. Les enquêteurs fédéraux ont aussi découvert des notes écrites par Lo Duca à l'attention de Radomski lors d'une perquisition au domicile de ce dernier. Le rapport soutient aussi que Paul Lo Duca aurait présenté Radomski à plusieurs autres joueurs de baseball soupçonnés de dopage, dont Kevin Brown, Éric Gagné, Matt Herges et Adam Riggs.

Transactions
 1993: drafté au  du  par les Los Angeles Dodgers.
 2004: échangé par les Dodgers au Marlins, en compagnie de Juan Encarnacion et Guillermo Mota, contre Hee Seop Choi, Brad Penny, et le lanceur de ligue mineure Bill Murphy.
 Négocié aux New York Mets contre deux joueurs de minor league, le lanceur Gaby Hernandez et le joueur de champ extérieur Dante Brinkley, alors que les Marlins échangaient tous leurs plus gros "salaires".

Palmarès
 4 sélections pour le Match des étoiles de la Ligue majeure de baseball : 2003, 2004 et 2005 en tant que remplaçant et une fois 2006 en tant que titulaire.

Il a frappé son 1000 coup sûr le  contre Barry Zito lors de la septième manche du match entre les Mets et les San Francisco Giants.

Anecdotes
 Au début de chaque partie, Paul écrit les initiales "LL" dans la poussière, en souvenir de sa maman Luci.
 Alors qu'il était enfant, sa mère lui lançait des balles dans l'arrière-cour et il les frappait avec un manche de brosse. Cette technique l'aida à développer sa coordination main/œil et il en résulte un très faible pourcentage de retraits sur prises.
 D'après un article paru dans Sports Illustrated du , Lo Duca est surnommé "Captain Red Ass" (Capitaine Cul Rouge) par ses condisciples des Mets, en référence à son bouillant tempérament.
 Lors du Home Run Derby 2006, Lo Duca lança pour David Wright et alla en finale.
 Lorsque Paul frappe un coup sûr, on peut parfois entendre un extrait de la chanson Volare, en référence à ses origines italiennes.

 Rezumat
În Europa sunt cunoscute mai mult de 6000 de soiuri de ciuperci basidiomicete din care peste 200 sunt sigur otrăvitoare, dar numai câteva provoacă intoxicații mortale. Printre ciupercile foarte toxice cunoscute sunt Amanita phalloides, Cortinarius orellanus și Cortinarius rubellus.

Unele ciuperci sunt alergice toxice numai pentru anumite persoane, ca de exemplu, Paxillus involutus sau Tricholoma equestre sin. Tricholoma flavovirens. Alte ciuperci cauzează prin consum mutații genetice ca Lyophyllum connatum.

În mod frecvent apar intoxicații cu Cortinarius gentilis, Inocybe rimosa, Amanita virosa și Boletus satanas din cauză că se pot confunda ușor cu ciupercile comestibile.

Ca o curiozitate se poate aminti de ciuperca toxică Gyromitra esculenta care se consumă în nordul și estul Europei, oamenii de acolo zicând, că toxicitatea s-ar descompune prin fiebere, fiind termolabilă. Este greșită părerea de a crede că ciupercile consumate de melci sau insecte n-ar fi toxice pentru om. La culesul ciupercilor este indicat să fie considerat toxică orice ciupercă necunoscută.Toate ciupercile otrăvitoare, dar nu mortale, sunt marcate sub imagini cu !!, cele letale cu !!!.'''

Рыжеголовая щетинкоклювка () — вид птиц из семейства Dasyornithidae. Видовое латинское название дано в честь австралийского орнитолога Кендалла Бродбента (1837—1911).

Эндемик Австралии. Распространён вдоль побережья на юго-западе Западной Австралии, юго-востоке Южной Австралии и юго-западе штата Виктория. Обитает в прибрежных зарослях кустарников и шалостях.

Длина тела 25 см, вес 77 г. Верх тела светло-коричневого цвета, брюхо белое, грудь серая. Клюв чёрный, ноги серые. Вокруг клюва растут длинные щетинки, которые служат для защиты глаз от механических повреждений.

Летает неохотно, большую часть жизни проводит на земле. Питается насекомыми и мелкими беспозвоночными, иногда семенами. Сезон размножения длится с сентября по декабрь. Самка строит на земле гнездо из травинок, выстилая его внутри мхом. В кладке 2 яйца с белыми, красными и пурпурными пятнами. Инкубационный период длится 11—22 дня. Птенцы покидают гнездо через 25 дней.

Jacques Bisceglia (* 21. Oktober 1940 in Paris; † 1. März 2013 ebenda) war ein französischer Jazz-Fotograf, Musikproduzent, Autor und Comicsammler.

Leben
Bisceglia begann seine Karriere als Fotograf Anfang der 1960er Jahre nach Ableistung seines Militärdienstes in Algerien, als er in Paris Jazzgrößen wie Rex Stewart fotografierte. Ende jenes Jahrzehnts wirkte er bei den ersten Ausgaben des Musikmagazins Actuel von Claude Delcloo mit und war dann mit Delcloo Mitarbeiter des Musiklabels BYG Actuel, für das er fotografierte. Er brachte zahlreiche Musiker zum Label und produzierte Alben des Art Ensemble of Chicago (A Jackson in Your House), Don Cherry, Yusef Lateef, Archie Shepp, Alan Silva und Sun Ra. Seine Fotografien sind auf Alben u. a. von Andrew Cyrille, Claude Delcloo, Steve Kuhn und Kenneth Terroade zu sehen. Als Anhänger des Free Jazz schrieb er in späteren Jahren über Musiker wie Billy Bang und William Parker.

Bisceglia betätigte sich außerdem als Sammler von Comics und galt aufgrund seiner einschlägigen Veröffentlichungen als Spezialist auf diesem Gebiet. Er war Herausgeber der Zeitschrift Papiers Nickelés. Bisceglia, der Mitglied der französischen Académie du Jazz war, starb am 1. März 2013 an den Folgen einer sklerotischen Nervenerkrankung.

Russell Craig Mael (5. října 1948) je americký zpěvák, textař a hudební producent.
Jeho hudební kariéra překlenuje více než 50 let. Se svým mladším bratrem Ronem založil v roce 1971 popovou skupinu Sparks, když přejmenovali svou původní skupinu Halfnelson. Je též spoluzakladatelem Lil' Beethoven Records.

Mládí
Russell Craig Mael se narodil 5. října 1948 v Los Angeles, Kalifornie. Spolu s bratrem vyrůstal v Pacific Palisades, poměrně bohatém předměstí Los Angeles. Jejich otec, Meyere Mael, měl židovské předky původem z Ruska a Rakousko-Uherska, byl grafickým návrhářem a karikaturistou v Hollywood Citizen-News, a matka Miriam (za svobodna Moskowitz) byla knihovnicí. Po skončení studia na střední škole v Palisades pokračovali oba bratři na Kalifornské univerzitě v Los Angeles;
Ron začal v roce 1963 studovat filmové a grafické umění, zatímco Russell studoval v letech 1966–1968 divadelní umění a filmovou tvorbu.

Sparks
Je známý pro široký hlasový rozsah, Russellovým nejpozoruhodnějším hlasovým rysem je dalekosáhlé falsetto, obzvláště zřetelné ve skladbě "Equator" z alba Kimono My House. Je také známý pro okázalé a hyperaktivní vystupování na scéně, které ostře kontrastuje s Ronovým strnulým výrazem.

Se skupinou Sparks nahrál 22 alb. Sparks jsou po celém světě považováni za kultovní skupinu a to hlavně díky skladbě "This Town Ain't Big Enough for Both of Us", která dosáhla pozice číslo 2 v UK Singles Chart.
Bratři Maelové si zahráli sami sebe v katastrofickém filmu z roku 1977 Rollercoaster. Objevili se také v epizodě dvacet dva šesté řady seriálu Gilmorova děvčata.

V roce 2015 spolupracovali Sparks se skotskou rockovou skupinou Franz Ferdinand pod identitou FFS. Jedna z prvních skladeb dostala název "Collaborations Don't Work" (Spolupráce nefungují).

Moritz Heinrich Freiherr von Boyneburg-Lengsfeld, auch Boineburg, (* 2. Oktober 1788 in Weimar; † 20. September 1868 in Wien) war ein zuerst in französischen sodann österreichischen Diensten stehender deutscher Offizier. Er war am Ende seiner Karriere k. k. General der Kavallerie und Wirklicher Kämmerer.

Herkunft und Familie
Moritz entstammte der Ludwigschen Linie des "Schwarzen Stammes" des Geschlechts der Boyneburg, deren Begründer 1540 starb und war ein Nachfahre des kaiserlichen Feldherren Konrad (Kurt) (1494–1567).

Ein Vetter von ihm, Freiherr Karl Wilhelm Ludwig von Boineburg-Lengsfeld (* 27. August 1785; † 24. März 1865), erhielt 1859 und 1860 im Großherzogtum Hessen und Sachsen-Weimar die Erlaubnis zur Wiederaufnahme der gräflichen Würde und wurde auch in Bayern bei der Grafenklasse immatrikuliert. Sein Enkel, Graf Karl Sigismund von Boyneburg-Lengsfeld (* 20. Oktober 1852), war danach Haupt des gräflichen Zweiges des Geschlechts.

Leben
Boyneburg trat jung in das preußische Heer, diente seit 1807 seiner Güter wegen in der westfälischen Armee und wohnte den meisten Feldzügen unter Napoleon I. bei, ging aber am 22. August 1813 mit dem Regiment, das er als Oberstleutnant, nach anderen Oberst, befehligte, zu den Österreichern über.

In österreichischen Diensten diente der Offizier zuerst als Oberstleutnant im Husarenregiment Nr. 8 mit dem Stab in Horodenka (Galizien), und erschien Anno 1831 als Oberst des  Dragonerregiments Oberst von Fiquelmont Nr. 6.

Mit Rang vom 3. November 1832 avancierte Boyneburg zum Generalmajor und Brigadier in Temeswar, sodann am 21. Januar 1842, unter Beförderung zum Feldmarschallleutnant, zum Divisionär zu Ofen. Am 11. Mai 1848 übernahm er an Freiherr Karl von Lederers Stelle die Leitung des ungarischen Generalkommandos, das er im Juli des Jahres mit einer Stellung in Galizien vertauschte, wo er an der Seite des kommandierenden Generals William Friedrich von Hammerstein am 1. November 1848 den Aufstand zu Lemberg unterdrückte. Anfang 1849 wurde er Militärkommandant in Österreichisch-Schlesien in Troppau. Er war seit 1849 zweiter Inhaber des Dragonerregiments Leopold II., Großherzog von Toskana Nr. 4.

Am 14. Mai 1853 trat der Ritter der königlich französischen Ehrenlegion sowie k. k. Wirklicher Kämmerer in den Ruhestand und wurde am 6. August 1853 noch mit dem Titel eines Generals der Kavallerie ad honores geehrt.

Der Freiherr und deutsche Patriot verfasste eine Familiengeschichte, "Die Boyneburge".

Wappen

1653: Das ursprüngliche Wappen der Boyneburg-Lengsfeld, ist ein vierfach schwarz und silber geteiltes Schild, und auf dem Helm zwei offene, ebenso geteilte Büffelhörner. Die Linie der Freiherren haben als nächste Agnaten der ausgestorbenen reichsgräflichen Linie nicht den Titel, wohl aber das Wappen angenommen, (von  Kaiser Ferdinand III. am 1. September 1653 vermehrt) das aus einem silbern und schwarz vierfach geteilten doppelten Reichsadler besteht, auf dessen Brust das oben beschriebene Wappenschild ruht.

Ashton-under-Lyne railway station serves the town of Ashton-under-Lyne, in Greater Manchester, England.  It lies on the Huddersfield Line 6½ miles (10 km) east of Manchester Victoria and is operated by Northern Trains.

The station is a short walk from Ashton-under-Lyne bus station and Ashton-under-Lyne tram stop which opened in 2013, and is served by Manchester Metrolink trams to , Manchester, and .

History

The station, known originally as Ashton, was opened by the Ashton, Stalybridge & Liverpool Junction Railway (AS&LJR) on 13 April 1846. The AS&LJR was absorbed by the Manchester & Leeds Railway in 1847, which was then renamed the Lancashire & Yorkshire Railway (LYR). The LYR renamed it Ashton (Charlestown) in 1874. The LYR amalgamated with the London & North Western Railway at the start of 1922, and these in turn amalgamated with several other companies on 1 January 1923, to form the London, Midland & Scottish Railway during the 1923 Grouping. It then passed to the London Midland Region of British Railways on nationalisation in 1948. It was renamed Ashton-under-Lyne on 6 May 1968.

When Sectorisation was introduced in the 1980s, the station was served by Regional Railways
under arrangement with the Greater Manchester PTE until the privatisation of British Rail. Usage at this time was relatively low and trains called only rarely (see BR timetable 1974, 1975 et seq.). The train service was not regular and in essence operated at peak times only.

Other stations in Ashton

There were once three stations in the town: Charlestown, Park Parade and Oldham Road. Also, Guide Bridge, a few miles away, was known as Ashton & Hooley Hill and then Ashton in its earliest years.

Charlestown Station — the present Ashton-under-Lyne station — was owned by the Lancashire & Yorkshire Railway, who ran services between Manchester Victoria and Stalybridge. The London & North Western Railway also ran services along the line, most only calling at Ashton and Stalybridge before continuing to Leeds. The station once sported a large booking hall, where the car park is currently, as well as a substantial canopy.

Park Parade Station was located on the Guide Bridge–Stalybridge line; the only remains of the station is the "Station Inn", a short stroll away.

Oldham Road Station was located on the line to Oldham (originally owned by the Oldham, Ashton and Guide Bridge Railway), which continued to Park Bridge before reaching Clegg Street, Oldham.

Facilities

Ashton-under-Lyne station consists of a single island platform, accessible via a ramp from the underpass at street level, it is wheelchair accessible and also has a passenger lift. This was installed due to the 1-in-8 gradient between street level and platform level Facilities of the station include a waiting room, ticket desk, wheelchair-accessible toilet and a hot-drinks vending machine.

A 3-week engineering blockade in July 2017 saw the track through the station re-aligned and a road underbridge replaced to allow for faster line speeds.  Replacement buses were provided, with through trains diverted or terminating short at Stalybridge.

Services
The typical off-peak service from the station is:
2tph (trains per hour) to
2tph to

On Sundays, 1tph runs in both directions.
