title: Adam Zampa

text:
Adam Zampa (born 31 March 1992) is an Australian international cricketer who represents Australian cricket team in limited-overs cricket.

Youth career
As a child, Zampa bowled medium pace, but Cricket Australia had placed restrictions on how many overs pace bowlers were allowed to bowl in under-14 matches, so he decided to change his bowling style to leg spin, inspired by Australian Test cricketer Shane Warne. Zampa made his way into Australia's under-19 team in 2009 and has earned a rookie contract with the Blues in 2010 after playing a role by representing Australia in their successful 2010 Under-19 Cricket World Cup campaign. Zampa played in two youth Test matches and eight youth ODIs, taking 11 wickets across the two formats.

Domestic career (2010–2016)

In New South Wales (2010–2013)
As a result of Zampa's youth career for Australia, he was given a rookie contract with New South Wales in 2010, but he didn't get any opportunities to prove himself at state-level because New South Wales also had a number of other successful spin bowlers, such as Nathan Hauritz, Steve O'Keefe and Steve Smith. He did get another opportunity to represent Australia before his first-class debut, playing in the 2011 Hong Kong Cricket Sixes.

Zampa made his first-class debut for New South Wales in the 2012–13 Sheffield Shield season against Queensland. He took five wickets in a three-wicket win. Despite not having a contract with a Big Bash League team until a week before BBL02 began, he played for the Sydney Thunder and was highly rated by Trevor Hohns. He finished the season having played three first-class matches, taking ten wickets at an average of 23 runs per wicket.

In South Australia (2013–2016)
After the season he accepted an offer to play for South Australia, in both first-class and one-day matches and for South Australia's Twenty20 team, the Adelaide Strikers. He was tempted by the guaranteed starts he would get in South Australia's team as they had just lost Test spinner Nathan Lyon to New South Wales. During the 2013 winter, he spent three months training at the Centre of Excellence before joining the South Australian squad for the 2013–14 season. The move to South Australia proved a useful one for progressing Zampa's career as he had the opportunity to work with experienced South African spinner Johan Botha, who was the captain of the South Australian side at the time of his move.

Zampa had an impressive performance in the 2014–15 Matador BBQs One-Day Cup, getting on a hat-trick and taking overall figures of 4/18 despite South Australia losing the match to Western Australia. In 2015, Zampa signed on for the Redbacks for two more seasons, but in order to get more experience, he changed Twenty20 sides to the Melbourne Stars, where he would have the opportunity to play alongside international stars Michael Clarke and Kevin Pietersen.

The 2015–16 summer was the most successful of Zampa's career to that point. He impressed in both List A cricket and Twenty20 cricket, and in 2016, was included in Australia's squad for both One Day Internationals and Twenty20 Internationals, but he struggled in first-class cricket. In the 2015–16 Matador BBQs One-Day Cup, he recorded figures of 4/48 against Cricket Australia XI to help take South Australia into the tournament's elimination final. In BBL05, he was part of an unusual dismissal, running out Peter Nevill with his nose.

Franchise cricket
In April 2022, he was bought by the Welsh Fire for the 2022 season of The Hundred.

International career (2016–present)
He made his ODI debut on 6 February 2016 in the second match of 2015–16 Chappell–Hadlee Trophy series. He made his Twenty20 International debut for Australia against South Africa on 4 March 2016. Zampa became a regular member of both the ODI and T20I squad for Australia. Zampa was named in Australia's squad for the 2016 World Twenty20 before he'd made his T20I debut for Australia in South Africa. Despite how recently he'd been added to the squad, he was Australia's leading wicket-taker with five wickets at an average of 13.80 and an economy rate of 6.27, including a breakout performance against Bangladesh with figures of 3/23.

With Zampa's rise to Australia's national team he also started to play in Twenty20 franchises as an overseas player. Playing for Rising Pune Supergiant in the Indian Premier League against the Sunrisers Hyderabad, he took 6 wickets for 19 runs and ranked as the third best performance as a bowler in the history of the IPL after 6/14 by Sohail Tanvir and 6/12 by Alzarri Joseph. Zampa bowled his first over for the match in the 8th over of Sunrisers Hyderabad's innings, but was taken out of the attack immediately without taking a wicket. He wasn't brought back on until the 16th over, in which he took one wicket. Captain MS Dhoni gave him an extended spell after his wicket, and he took two wickets in the 18th over and three more wickets in the 20th over, bringing his total to six. He was named man of the match for his performance, and this was also the record for the best bowling figures by a bowler in Twenty20 history in a losing cause. Zampa also played in the Caribbean Premier League for the Guyana Amazon Warriors, taking the most wickets out of all spin bowlers for the tournament with 15 wickets at an average of 18.46.

Zampa was surprisingly dropped from Australia's Twenty20 side for the second match of a three-match series against Sri Lanka in 2016–17 after bowling well in the series opener and taking two wickets. Zampa described being dropped as a "kick in the guts", saying his recent form indicated he was one of the best Twenty20 spin bowlers in the world. Without Zampa Australia lost both the match and the series. Zampa was brought back into the side for the final match of the series, and he was named the man of the match with 3/25 as Australia won the game.

Despite all of Zampa's successes in the shorter forms of cricket, he was still unable to break into Australia's Test side. He was unable to reach exceptional form in the Sheffield Shield, being a victim of South Australia's very strong pace attack, with Chadd Sayers and Kane Richardson taking all of the wickets themselves and not leaving opportunities for Zampa to stand out. Australia played a Test series in India in early 2017, and former New Zealand captain Stephen Fleming touted him as a possible addition to Australia's squad given his ability to bowl well on Indian pitches, but he was not included in the squad. Instead, Zampa continued playing in the Sheffield Shield and had his first five-wicket haul in a first-class innings when he took career-best figures of 6/62 in the first innings against Queensland before taking another four wickets in the second innings to accomplish his first ten-wicket haul in a first-class match.

Zampa was in Australia's squad for the 2017 ICC Champions Trophy, but he didn't get many opportunities to play when two of Australia's three group stage matches were washed out and Australia was unable to progress to the finals. In April 2019, he was named in Australia's squad for the 2019 Cricket World Cup. In August 2021, Zampa was named in Australia's squad for the 2021 ICC Men's T20 World Cup. On 4 November 2021, in Australia's T20 World Cup match against Bangladesh, Zampa took his first five-wicket haul in T20I cricket.

In March 2022, during the opening match of the series against Pakistan, Zampa took his 100th wicket in ODI cricket.

In September 2022, he took his first ODI five-wicket haul, against New Zealand in Cairns.
In September 2023,he tied with fellow Australian Mick Lewis, the unwanted record of most runs conceded by a bowler in ODIs,going 0/113 versus South Africa. This record was broken on October 25 when Bas de Leede of the Netherlands conceded 115 against Australia in the ICC World Cup 2023, it must be noted he at least took 2 poles.  On 20 October 2023 Zampa took 4 wickets giving 53 runs with an economy of 5.30 and helped his team to win over Pakistan.

Personal life
Zampa is married to Harriet Palmer, the couple have a son. He is vegan and has appeared in advertisements for PETA.

title: Air Mata Mengalir di Tjitarum

text:
(; Perfected Spelling: Air Mata Mengalir di Citarum; Indonesian for Tears Flow in Citarum) is a 1948 film from what is now Indonesia, written and directed by Roestam Sutan Palindih for the Tan & Wong Bros Film Company.

Production
Following the Japanese occupation of the Dutch East Indies in March 1942, Tan's Film was shut down. During the occupation all films produced were works of propaganda, and after the Indonesian National Revolution began in 1945 no new films were made. In 1948 the owners of Tan's Film, the brothers Tan Khoen Yauw and Khoen Hian, worked with brothers Joshua and Othniel Wong to establish the Tan & Wong Bros Film Company. They soon began production of their first film, .

The film was written and directed by Roestam Sutan Palindih, a journalist-cum-writer who had directed two short films during the Japanese occupation.  starred Sofia, her husband S Waldy (pseudonym of Waldemar Caerel Hunter), and Rd Endang all had had experience on stage during the Occupation. Air Mata Mengalir dari Tjitarum was the feature film debut of Sofia and Rd Endang. The black-and-white film's sound and cinematography was split between the Wong brothers.

Release and reception
 was released in 1948, and at least one advertisement took advantage of the lasting star power of Roekiah, who had been the main draw of Tan's Film; the advertisement included the line "Roekiah? No! But Sofia in a new Indonesian film, ". The film was the second domestic feature production since the end of the occupation, following Andjar Asmara's Djaoeh Dimata for the South Pacific Film Corporation. Both films had similar themes, but ultimately Air Mata dari Tjitarum was the bigger box-office hit.

Legacy
Roestam did not direct Tan & Wong Bros next production, Bengawan Solo (1949), and only wrote one further film, Terang Bulan (1950). He spent much of his later life as documentarian. Sofia and Waldy acted in several further films together, including Bengawan Solo, and both later went into directing; they divorced in 1964. Rd Endang remained a popular star until 1956, when he left the film industry. Tan & Wong Bros produced several further films after the release of ; in 1955 they changed the company's name to Tjendrawasih Film.

The film is probably lost. As was the case in the rest of the world, movies in the East Indies were shot on highly flammable nitrate film, and after a fire destroyed much of Produksi Film Negara's warehouse in 1952, many films shot on nitrate were deliberately destroyed. As such, American visual anthropologist Karl G. Heider suggests that all Indonesian films from before 1950 are lost. However, J.B. Kristanto's Katalog Film Indonesia records several as having survived at Sinematek Indonesia's archives, and the film historian Misbach Yusa Biran writes that several Japanese propaganda films have survived at the Netherlands Government Information Service.

title: Brown Animal Sanatory Institution

text:
The Brown Animal Sanatory Institution sometimes referred to as the Brown Institution was an institute for veterinary research laboratory founded in 1871 in London, England. It was established from a sum of £20000 left by Thomas Brown in his will. It was intended to be a centre for veterinary research and its early work was mainly in disease and physiology. It also served as a veterinary hospital. Seven out of its eight directors became Fellows of the Royal Society. In the late 1870s, the institute became a target of the anti-vivisection movement in England and the building on Wandsworth road was destroyed by German bombs in 1944.

History
Mr Thomas Brown of Rosey Park Hill, Dublin who lived in London died in 1852. Brown's Will stated the purpose of his bequest for "founding, establishing and upholding an Institution for investigating, studying and, without charge beyond immediate expenses, endeavouring to cure maladies, distempers and injuries any quadrupeds or birds useful to man may be subject to, for and towards which purpose of founding, establishing and upholding such animal sanatory institution within a mile of either Westminster, Southwark or Dublin.” The funds were transferred to the University of London in 1858 and accumulated interest till 1871 to a value of £33,781. John Burdon-Sanderson was appointed as superintendent and because the Mortmain Act prevent purchase of land using the trust fund, a site of 1.5 acres was purchased with a £2000 gift from John Cunliffe of Lombard Street and £500 from Burdon-Sanderson. The land was on Wandsworth Road. The institute was opened in 1871. The single large building had one basement floor accessible by a trapdoor from the apparatus room. A description by William Bulloch in 1925 notes: "If one takes a tram from Westminster Bridge along the Embankment past “Lambeth Palace and Doultons and underneath an ugly railway bridge across the Wandsworth Road one reaches (No. 149) a small archway on which is graven the legend “The Brown Sanatory Institution founded 1871.” On entering, one comes to a stable yard and, behind, a low building of one storey. This is the famous “Brown” now falling, sad to say, into a considerable state of decay and uncared for."The institute was supported by John Simon (1816-1904) pathologist and medical officer in the board of health for London. Among the researchers who worked at the institute was a Viennese scientist, Emanuel Edward Klein, sometimes considered the father of British bacteriology. The research he and his colleagues conducted at the Institution were published as in 1873 as the Handbook for the Physiological Laboratory along with John Burdon-Sanderson, Michael Foster, and Thomas Lauder Brunton. Their experiments included vivisection of animals, and following widespread protests, led to an enquiry in 1875, the Royal Commission on Vivisection for Scientific Purposes, chaired by Lord Cardwell and which resulted in the establishment of the Cruelty to Animals Act 1876. Activists writing in the press pointed out that a founding principle, "kindness to animals is a general principle of the Institution" was hardly followed.

The Superintendents of the Brown Institution were:

 Burdon-Sanderson (1871-1878)
 W. S. Greenfield (1878-1881)
 C. S. Roy (1881 - 1884)
 Victor Horsley (1884 - 1891)
 C. S. Sherrington (1891-1895)
 J. Rose Bradford (1895-1903)
 T. G. Brodie (1903-1909)
 F. W. Twort (1909- ?)

Among the other researchers who worked there were Charles Creighton, L.C. Wooldridge, W. G. Spencer, Charles Ballance, Arthur Edmunds, George Makins, A. E. Wright, Charles Plimmer and E. Mellanby.

The institution also served as a veterinary hospital with nearly 4000 cases being seen in its first two decades and 8000 in the second twenty years. The hospital was closed in 1939 but even before that it went into a steady decline with only about 1000 cases a year. The decline was due in part to a ban on pets in flats in the neighbourhood and the rise of motorized transport which led to a decline in horses. The first veterinary assistant was William Duguid. The rise of the Lister Institute is thought to have aided the decline of the Brown Institution.

title: Putra Heights LRT station

text:
Putra Heights is a Klang Valley Rapid Transit station in Putra Heights in the southern Subang Jaya. The station are the southern terminus for the Sri Petaling Line and Kelana Jaya Line. The station is located on the intersection of Persiaran Putra Indah and Persiaran Putra Perdana, next to E6 ELITE. Nearby places include Kampung Kuala Sungai Baru, Laman Putra, Putra Indah and Putra Point Commercial Centre.

The station is part of the Prasarana's rail extension for both Kelana Jaya line and Sri Petaling line which joined both lines at this station, after the Masjid Jamek station. The station is opened in June 2016, along with 25 other stations in the extension plan.

The station is one of the largest in Klang Valley. It has four tracks with 2 side platforms and 1 island platform. Because of different rail system developed on both lines, they do not share the same track and use their own individual track instead. The station is the main infrastructure in Putra Heights.

History
The extension of both Sri Petaling Line and Kelana Jaya Line were announced on 29 August 2006 by then Malaysian Deputy Prime Minister Mohd Najib Abdul Razak. This is also confirmed by then Prime Minister of Malaysia Tun Abdullah Badawi in his National Budget speech in 2006.

Construction started since 2010. However, during the construction of the depot of Putra Heights station, the concrete formwork and scaffolding with a height of 6 meter collapsed, killing two construction workers. 4 other workers suffers minor injury in the accident.

The construction of the station had also received complaints and objections by both Subang Alam and Putra Heights residents. A study by UKM professor Dr Tajul Anuar Jamaluddin, whose opinion was sought by the residents, found the area to be unsuitable as the ground was largely made up of clay and cracked granite, which would be precarious and make it expensive to lay rail tracks. The line will also pass by an artificial lake and an electric transmission line, posing danger to nearby houses.

The station was opened by Dato Sri' Mohd Najib Abdul Razak himself, who was then the Prime Minister of Malaysia. Transport Minister Liow Tiong Lai, Land Public Transport Commission Chairman Syed Hamid Albar and Chief Secretary to the Government Ali Hamsa were also present at opening.

In 2019, the then Minister of Transportation opened an airport shuttle route from the station to KLIA and Klia2. But later on November 18th, 2020, RapidKL on its Facebook page issued a notice that route number E1 (airport shuttle) has been discontinued effective 1 December 2020. Passengers are advised to take an alternative bus operator, Jetbus.

Incidents and accidents
A taekwondo athlete was sued for assaulting a disabled senior citizen in the station. The athlete, Nur Dhia Liyana Shaharuddin, who won a silver medal in the 2017 SEA Games, was asked to issue a public apology to a 71-year-old partially blind and deaf man for kicking him in the station.

In November 2019 a woman who was waiting on the platform of the station, almost got hypnotized by an old man. The woman was able to escape with the help of two Malay men. She then shared her experience on Facebook.

Station

Station Design
The station is designed by NRY Architects, which is also responsible for the Awan Besar and Bandar Puteri Puchong LRT station.

The station is inspired by the traditional fish trap called Bubu. Instead of trapping, the station has been designed as a celebration of movement to showcase its function as an interchange station.

The station skeletal structure is covered with photovoltaic cladding to generate solar energy. Glass louvers are added for a naturally-lit interior and shade during rainy seasons. Voids are realised on certain locations of both facades to allow sufficient cross ventilation and constant airflow within the station. As some heat trapped inside the building, a customised jacked roof concept is implemented across the central spine of the envelope to channel it out.

Station Layout
The station has an island platform (1A and 1B) and two side platforms (2 and 3). Most of the time trains will stop at platforms 1A and 1B, unless the train will be terminated after this station. The station is also equipped with an ample car park, bus terminal on the station ground level and main drop-off and pick-up areas at concourse level.

Charles George Garton (born 29 August 1901) was a British electrical engineer and socialist activist.

Born in Rugby, Garton left school at the age of fourteen to undertake an apprenticeship as a blacksmith, but later studied electrical engineering at the Rugby College of Technology.  He joined the Independent Labour Party (ILP), and was also active in the Labour Guild of Youth, although a local vicar condemned him for leading moonlight rambles including both men and women.   At the 1929 United Kingdom general election, he stood as the Labour Party candidate for Warwick and Leamington, taking third place with 16% of the vote.  During the campaign, the Leamington Courier described him as "a revolutionary in the matter of dress . . . wearing in winter and summer alike an open-necked tennis shirt and no hat".

Garton stood again at the 1931 United Kingdom general election.  He was unable to win the backing of either the Labour Party or the ILP, but was supported by the local Constituency Labour Party.  Against a single opponent, he managed only 19.4% of the vote.  He served as the Midlands District representative on the ILP's National Administrative Committee from 1931, and in 1932 moved the motion arguing that the ILP should remain affiliated to the Labour Party provided that certain conditions were met - hoping that the Labour Party was moving to the left and would agree to them.  This position was approved at the ILP's conference, but the conditions were not met, and so the ILP disaffiliated.

Late in 1933, Garton moved to Moscow, to work for the All Union Electro-technical Institute.  The following year, he spoke at the ILP's summer school in support of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union and the ILP's Revolutionary Policy Committee.  He remained in Russia until 1937, when he returned to the UK, to become a research officer with the Electrical Research Association, then served as head of its materials department from 1946, retiring in 1966.

Garton wrote a number of publications on electrical engineering.  He was made a Fellow of the Institute of Physics, and a Fellow of the Institution of Electrical Engineers.  The Garton Effect is named for him.

James Patrick Garvey (Q1 1878 – after 1905) was an English professional footballer who played as a goalkeeper.

Career
Born in Hulme, Garvey began his career with Wigan County in the Lancashire League. He joined Newton Heath in May 1900 as a replacement for Scotland international goalkeeper Frank Barrett, who had moved to New Brighton Tower. He made his Football League debut in the opening game of the 1900–01 season away to Glossop; he conceded just one goal, but Newton Heath were unable to score themselves and they lost 1–0. Garvey kept a clean sheet in Newton Heath's next game, a 4–0 home win over Middlesbrough, but was replaced for the next game by Jimmy Whitehouse, newly signed from Grimsby Town. He only made four more appearances before the end of the season, one of these coming as a result of Whitehouse's selection as an emergency forward against Walsall. He spent most of the rest of the season in the club's reserve team; one notable appearance in December 1900 saw him save a penalty as Newton Heath – whose team consisted of just nine men – held Glossop to a 1–1 draw.

Having failed to establish himself in the Newton Heath first team, he left the club for non-league Middleton in June 1901. After a spell with Stalybridge Rovers, he joined Southport Central ahead of the 1902–03 season. In December 1902, he returned to Newton Heath (now known as Manchester United) with Southport when they were drawn together in the third qualifying round of the 1902–03 FA Cup; although Manchester United won 4–1, Garvey had a good game, saving a penalty from Jack Peddie to keep the score relatively respectable. In March 1904, he was part of the Southport team that reached the final of the Lancashire Senior Cup, where they lost 2–0 to Blackburn Rovers at Deepdale in Preston.

He returned to the Football League with Bradford City in February 1905. He made 22 league appearances for Bradford before suffering a career-ending injury in a game against Stockport County in November 1905.

title: As Sure as the Sun

text:
As Sure as the Sun is the debut studio album from the Christian singer and songwriter Ellie Holcomb. The album released on February 18, 2014, by Full Heart Music, which is her own independent label. The album was produced by her father noted Christian music producer Brown Bannister along with Ben Shive. This album has received critical acclaim from music critics and it attained significant commercial sales.

Critical reception

As Sure as the Sun garnered critical acclaim from fourteen music critics ratings and reviews. David Jeffries of AllMusic rated the album four stars out of five, remarking that the release is "A superb, often stunning, debut." At CCM Magazine, Matt Conner rated the album a perfect five stars, writing that the release "is a beautiful triumphant album that will undoubtedly stand as this years favorites." Amanda Furbeck of Worship Leader rated the album four-and-a-half stars out of five, stating that the release comes with "an uplifting, light-hearted acoustic feel, gently blurring the lines between light pop and country styles" on which "features hope-filled vocals, a hint of country/bluegrass instrumentation, and pop-styled piano riffs." Chris Webb remarks for Cross Rhythms that "This is an album of variation, light and shade, grayscale and colour, a warm welcome into the world of Elllie Holcomb."

At Indie Vision Music, Jonathan Andre rated the album four stars out of five, saying that "Each song, while not necessarily as pop or rock as many songs are on the radio, still speaks volumes of truths to us as we hear it." Kevin Davis of New Release Tuesday rated the album four-and-a-half stars out of five, writing that "This is truly a great album and a moving and prayerful worship experience" on which contains "captivating and catchy songs filled with inspirational lyrics." At Christian Music Review, Amanda Brogan rated the album four stars out of five, stating that Holcomb "shines" on "a wonderfully positive alternative for those who already enjoy the southern-styled genre and holds words of undeniable life even for those who would generally choose a different form of music." Joshua Andre of Christian Music Zine rated the album four-and-a-half stars out of five, calling this a "stellar effort, and near flawless arrangements of quality treasures" to behold.

At Jesus Freak Hideout, they have three reviews on the album, and all were four stars out of five, from Jen Rose, Mark Geil and Roger Gelwicks. Rose states that the album is not one demanding "attention" nor a "groundbreaking" effort, however on the release Holcomb "uses [...] her raw writing material" to create tracks, which "have a way of gently sneaking into your heart after a while." Geil writes that due to the usage of a contemporary vocal style that could be a setback for the album, yet he notes "Few will be bothered by it, but the affectation is really unnecessary and seems to distract from the sweet purity in the vocal underneath. Regardless, this is one fine album!" Gelwicks says that "there is a sense of harmonic completeness that keeps the project afloat from beginning to end; it's rootsy and home-grown, but it's polished, attractive, and above all, worshipful."

Louder Than the Music's Jono Davies rated the album a perfect five stars, and according to him "There is a clean, fresh sound to these songs which make you feel this isn't just an artist copying another artist, this is Ellie singing her stories and her feelings on one amazing album."  At Jesus Wired, Jessica Morris rated the album eight out of ten stars, affirming that Holcomb "does not disappoint" because the release contains "stunning vocal control and truthful lyrics". Timothy Yap at Hallels gave a positive review of the album, remarking that "Ultimately, there are songs that entertain and there are songs that transform via Scripture", and this release marks a rarity because the listener "will get both on one record." At The Sound Opinion, Andrew Greenhalgh gave a positive review of the album, noting that the album is not one that is revolutionary, but it is a release "that is warm and honest in every way".

Awards and accolades
The album was No. 5 on the Worship Leaders Top 5 Community Funded and Indie Releases of 2014 list.

title: Other Dimensions In Music (album)

text:
Other Dimensions In Music is the self-titled debut album by American free jazz collective quartet Other Dimensions In Music, composed of trumpeter Roy Campbell, multi-instrumentalist Daniel Carter, bassist William Parker and drummer Rashid Bakr. It was recorded in studio in 1989 and released on the Swedish Silkheart label. In the liner notes of the album, Campbell claims "We represent the sum total of the musical masters who played before us and presently". Meanwhile, Parker says that "the music on this album is defined by the strictest rules of beauty, each sound is ordered and cured with the energy of ancient spirits. The same spirits that guided John Coltrane, Louis Armstrong and Bud Powell." The CD edition adds two bonus tracks.

Reception

In his review for AllMusic, Charlie Wilmoth states "Despite their involvement with the downtown New York avant-jazz crowd, multi-reedist Daniel Carter, trumpeter Roy Campbell, and bassist William Parker probably play in a pensive, straightforward manner just as often as they play free."
The Penguin Guide to Jazz states that in comparation with the next album "the record feels unfocused and often ragged."

title: Ernestine Mills

text:
Ernestine Evans Mills (née Bell; 1871 – 6 February 1959) was an English metalworker and enameller who became known as an artist, writer and suffragette. She was the author of The Domestic Problem, Past, Present, and Future (1925). Three pieces of jewellery that Mills created for the suffragettes are in the Museum of London.

Background
Mills was born in Hastings to Emily "Mynie" Ernest Bell (née Magnus; c. 1839 – 1893), an actor and classical musician, and her husband, Thomas Evans Bell, a writer. Mynie and Thomas Bell were both members of the Central Committee of the National Society for Women's Suffrage. Mynie Bell was one of the signatories of the 1866 petition, organised by Barbara Bodichon, asking that all householders be given the vote.

She was educated at home with a governess, then at Notting Hill High School for Girls and taught drawing from a young age by the artist Frederic Shields, a friend of the family.

Her father died in 1887 and her mother in 1893, and she was supported for a time by guardians, William Edward and Hertha Ayrton. She attended South Kensington School of Art Finsbury Central Technical School, and was awarded a place at the Slade Art School. An apprentice to Frederic Shields, she also studied enamelling under Alexander Fisher. She acted as vice-president for the craft section of the Society of Women Artists for a period.

In 1898 Mills married the doctor Herbert Henry Mills (1868–1947), who shared her Fabian views and was physician to Richard and Emmeline Pankhurst. They had a daughter, Hermia Mills (1902–1987), who became a doctor.

In May 1915, Hertha Ayrton tested an 'anti-gas fan’ in Mill's back garden in Kensington. It was later adopted as a device to clear poisonous chemical gases from British frontline trenches during the First World War. The story was transmuted into a scene in the 1924 novel The Call later written by Ayrton's step daughter Edith Zangwill.

Activism

In 1907 Mills joined Emmeline Pankhurst's Women's Social and Political Union (WSPU) and by 1909 had joined the Fabian Women's Group. According to the British National Archives, Mills was possibly the woman on the ground in the photograph on the Daily Mirror front page on 19 November 1910, the day after the "Black Friday" suffragette demonstration outside the House of Commons. The photograph was published under the headline: "Violent Scenes at Westminster Where Many Suffragettes Were Arrested While Trying to Force Their Way Into the House of Commons." Other sources have identified the woman as the suffragette Ada Wright.

Works
The Museum of London holds three pieces of jewellery Mills made for the suffragettes. One is an enamel-and-silver pendant of winged Hope singing outside prison bars with semi-precious stones of purple, green and white, created to celebrate the release from prison of Louise Eates,  Honorary Secretary of the Kensington branch of the WSPU. The other two are brooches, one in the WSPU colours, with the words "Votes for Women" in white on a green wreath and purple background, and the second, made for the Women's Freedom League (WFL), reads "Votes for Women" in the WFL colours: green, white and gold.

Mills was the author of The Domestic Problem, Past, Present, and Future (1925), on the nature of domestic work, and The Life and Letters of Frederic Shields (1912), a biography of her teacher.

Mills was a member of the Soroptimist Greater London club, founded in 1924, and for which she created an enamelled President's badge in 1933. The Soroptimist International of London Mayfair commissioned a painted enamel President's badge from her in 1946, paying seven guineas for it. The design included their founding date of 1942 and commemorates the Alpha Club, founded in 1928, from which they grew, with the chain ultimately listing the names of the club's presidents from 1942 to 2006, including Flora Drummond. The chain is now held at the V&A Museum.

Death
Ernestine Mills died on 6 February 1959, aged 88. She was cremated at Mortlake Crematorium the ceremony attended by her daughter, Dr Hermia Mills, and members of the Society for Women Artists, and the Soroptimist Club of Greater London.

Her obituary in The Times described her as "a vivid personality, well known in Kensington, where she lived all her life. A very unconventional upbringing of late Victorian days made her an Edwardian of the modern school, a friend of Mrs Pankhurst, and a champion of women’s rights. She had a courtesy and sympathy for all and was beloved of a large circle of friends."

title: Lad lit

text:
Lad lit was a term used principally from the 1990s to the early 2010s to describe male-authored popular novels about young men and their emotional and personal lives.

Emerging as part of Britain's 1990s media-driven lad subculture,  the term lad lit preceded chick lit.Books categorised as lad lit from UK authors Nick Hornby and Tony Parsons enjoyed both critical and commercial success. Later, in the 2000s, the term lad lit was subsumed, on both sides of the Atlantic, as a male-oriented sub-category of the then massively popular chick lit genre. Though there was heavy investment by some publishers in the sub-category, this later iteration of lad lit had much more limited success among  writers, critics and readers.

The term combines the word "lad," which refers to a boy or young man and "lit," which is short for "literature."  Books described as lad lit are usually characterized by a confessional and humorous writing style.

Description
Lad lit typically concerns itself with the trials and tribulations of white, heterosexual, urban twenty and thirty something men, faced with changing romantic mores and the pursuit of a desired lifestyle.  The stories revolve around issues like male identity crisis and masculine insecurity  in relationships as a result of the social pressures and the expectations of how they should behave in work, love and life, men’s fear and final embrace of marriage In other words, the final maturation into manhood.

The first lad lit books ostensibly sought to redefine masculinity. The archetypal protagonist of these books is the young man on the make, mindlessly pursuing booze, babes and football. His ineptitude, drunkenness and compulsive materialism were part of his charm. The figure was created in contrast with the then current stereotype of the pro-feminist, well-groomed  new man and, beneath the crass surface, the lads are attractive, funny, bright, observant, inventive, charming and excruciatingly honest. They are characters who seem to deserve more from life and romance than they are getting.

History

"Lad lit" is a term of the 1990s that was originated in Britain. Several publishers, encouraged  by the  increasing sales of glossy magazines (Maxim, Esquire, GQ, FHM - the so-called "lad mags", from which the term "lad lit" may have evolved) believed that such fiction would open up a new readership. Thus, lad lit is not its own phenomenon, but rather part of a larger cultural and socioeconomic movement.

Slightly later, with the explosive rise of chick lit as a publishing category targeting young women in the late 1990s and early 2000s, publishers on both sides of the Atlantic hoped that lad lit could be a parallel category selling to young men. But lad lit never really took off: promoting novels as part of a subculture that celebrated boorish behaviour and to a demographic (young men) that rarely bought books was, arguably, an idea doomed to failure.

As a critical term
In 2002 the critic E. Showalter enthusiastically embraced the concept of lad lit, proposing extending the term to cover earlier fictions stretching from the works of Kingsley Amis in the 1950s and 60s to Martin Amis (The Rachel Papers, 1973) and Bret Easton Ellis (Less than Zero, 1985 and The Rules of Attraction, 1987). Showalter excitedly explained:

Stretching from Kingsley to Martin Amis, Ladlit was comic in the traditional sense that it had a happy ending. It was romantic in the modern sense that it confronted men’s fear and final embrace of marriage and adult responsibilities. It was confessional in the postmodern sense that the male protagonists and unreliable first-person narrators betrayed beneath their bravado the story of their insecurities, panic, cold sweats, performance anxieties and phobias. At the low end of the market, Ladlit was the masculine equivalent of the Bridget Jones Phenomenon; at the high end of the high street, it was a masterly examination of male identity in contemporary Britain".

However, lad lit has not enjoyed further development as a critical term and the fourth edition of the Oxford Dictionary of Literary Terms describes it as "1990s marketing term".

Authors
Nick Hornby is considered to be the originator of the genre. His early novels, Fever Pitch (1992), High Fidelity (1995) and About a Boy (1997), each have a protagonist dominated by a typically masculine obsession (football, pop music, gadgetry) that reflects his inability to communicate with women.

Other authors associated with this new wave of fiction include: John O'Farrell, Things Can Only Get Better (1998); Tony Parsons, Man and Boy (1999); Tim Lott, White City Blue (1999); Mike Gayle, My Legendary Girlfriend (1999); Mark Barrowcliffe, Girlfriend 44 (2000); Matt Dunn,  The Ex-Boyfriend’s Handbook (2006); Danny Wallace, Yes Man (2008); Kyle Smith, Love Monkey (2009); Zack Love, Sex in the Title (2013).

title: Agios Andreas, Katakolo

text:
Agios Andreas is a small settlement in the municipality of Pyrgos near the town of Katakolo, in Elis, Greece. It is situated on the site of ancient Pheia, at a bay opposite the islet of Ichthys or Tiganonisi and the island of Zakynthos. Agios Andreas is located 13 kilometers northwest of Pyrgos and approximately 2 km from the port of Katakolo. It owes its name to an old church, now ruined, dedicated to Andrew the Apostle, who is said to have passed from the place on his journeys. The church was built on the ruins of an ancient temple, which was rebuilt in 1930.

History
The ancient town of Pheia occupied the site of the modern village of Agios Andreas, most of which today lies submerged in the sea. Dating back to Homeric times, it is mentioned twice by Homer (Iliad, VIII.135, Odyssey, XV.297, 298), Thucydides in his History of the Peloponnesian War (II.25), in Xenophon's Hellenica (3, 2, 30), Strabo's  Geographica (VIII.343), as well as the works of Polybius and Pausanias.

Pheia was sunk by an earthquake in the 6th century AD, the same which largely destroyed the city of Patras, and which is credited with the final ruin of the Temple of Zeus at Olympia and probably with the formation of Lake Agoulinitsa (in Epitalio).

In Byzantine times, a fortress, Pontikon or Pontikokastro, was built on the site of the ruined ancient acropolis. Archaeological excavations in the area were undertaken in 1957 by Nikos Gialouris, and the findings are exhibited in the Archaeological Museum of Olympia. They include ostraca from prehistoric up to Roman times, clay lamps, bowls, cylixes, amphorae, columns, an Archaic-era kouros from Naxos, and Cycladic statues, all testimonies to the site's role as a major port. An extensive Roman-era cemetery was also found on the islet of Ιchthys or Tiganonisi. However, most of the graves were found looted.

After the Fourth Crusade, the castle was conquered by the Frankish Crusaders who established the Principality of Achaea in ca. 1205. Known as Beauvoir in French, Belveder in Italian and Bellovidere or Pulchrumvidere in Latin, it originally formed part of the princely domain of Achaea, and along with the fortress and princely mint of Glarentza it was one of the two major sites from which Elis was governed. Beauvoir was granted in 1289 to Hugh, Count of Brienne, in exchange for his half of the Barony of Karytaina, but Hugh soon exchanged it with John Chauderon for lands in Conversano. By 1303, however, it had returned to direct princely control. During Ferdinand of Majorca's attempt to seize the Principality in 1315–16, Beauvoir was captured and held by his forces until after his defeat and death in the Battle of Manolada. Beauvoir ceased to play an important role thereafter, and is scarcely mentioned in the subsequent periods of Ottoman and Venetian rule. In 1391 it was taken over by the Navarrese Company, in 1427 by Constantine Palaiologos, and after that by Thomas Palaiologos. It was burned down by the Turks in 1470.

title: Puʻu Huluhulu

text:
Puu Huluhulu is a volcanic cone located near the center of the Island of Hawaii in the State of Hawaii. It is located on the southern side of Hawaii Route 200 (Daniel K. Inouye Highway, also known locally as Saddle Road), directly across from the highway's intersection with the Mauna Kea Access Road. Puu Huluhulu is Hawaiian for hairy hill (puu=hill and huluhulu=hairy).

The cone is a kīpuka, which is an older volcanic hill covered with vegetation, surrounded by the younger lava flow. The hill is located on Hawaii Route 200 and is a native tree sanctuary and a nature trail.

Beginning in July 2019, various groups opposed to the Thirty Meter Telescope gathered at Puu Huluhulu to block Mauna Kea Access Road and temporarily stop its construction, despite the Hawaii Supreme Court's ruling to allow construction to move forward.

title: Fransum

text:
Fransum () is an old church hamlet in the municipality of Westerkwartier, Netherlands. The village in the north-east of the country contains an early 13th century Romanesque church, a farm and a house.

The hamlet was first mentioned in 1285 as Frenchem in Hunesgonia, and probably means "settlement of Frank (person)". The explanation "settlement of the Franks" is unlikely due to the k → s shift. Archaeological excavations have discovered artefacts from the 5th until the 8th century in the terp. Also bodies have been discovered which are older than the 13th century church. The church is currently in use for weddings, expositions and concerts due to the excellent acoustics.

From Den Ham a narrow road leads to the wierde, with the last part being unpaved. A dodenweg, or 'death road', runs across the wierde from north to south. From Fransum there used to be church paths to Aduard, Altenaauw, Beswerd and Den Ham. Many of these paths disappeared later, but some have been restored as bike paths.

Fransum is not a statistical entity, and the postal authorities have placed it under Den Ham.  Fransum was home to 166 people in 1840. Nowadays, it consists of three buildings and a dozen farms in the surrounding area.

title: Reservoir Dogs (song)

text:
'Reservoir Dogs' is a song by Australian hip hop trio Bliss n Eso, featuring Seth Sentry, Pez, 360 and Drapht. The song was released on 21 June 2013 through Illusive Sounds, as the third single from Circus in the Sky. The song peaked at No. 96 on the ARIA Singles Chart and finished at No. 123 on the Triple J Hottest 100 of 2013.

Background
Bliss, Eso, 360, Pez, Drapht, and Seth Sentry wrote the song over a group e-mail and later recorded it together. When speaking of the other rappers writing their verses, Eso said "We left it up to their own interpretation, we didn't say (to them) 'Alright the song's about this',  we wanted all the boys to jump on and put their own spice to it". Bliss said that the idea behind the 'Reservoir Dogs' title came from '6 MC's on the track, and the movie Reservoir Dogs is about 6 individuals all with a different colour, so we based it on that with everyone just coming together with their own colour". Bliss n Eso also had plans for a music video, however one would never be released, this is perhaps due to the track's poor chart performance in comparison to other singles from Circus in the Sky.

Critical reception
The song was positively received, however some lyrics were criticized. Beat.com.au wrote that "Australian heavyweights 360, Pez, Seth Sentry and Drapht sound like they’re having a blast together on record for the first time on Reservoir Dogs". TheMusic.com.au wrote that "They’re executing a roll call of some of the biggest rappers in Australia. The track bounces along with a real sense of urgency, as well as camaraderie among the merry men. Lacklustre hook aside, it’s exciting stuff." Moshtix.com.au wrote that the song was "another jaunty highlight though marred by some haphazard lyrical missteps".

Chart performance
The song debuted at No. 96 on the ARIA Singles Chart. It dropped one spot to No. 97 the following week and left the chart after 2 weeks.

title: Viola lutea var. westfalica

text:
Viola lutea var. westfalica, also known as high calamine pansy, Westphalia pansy, or zinc pansy, is a variety of violet native to Westphalia, Germany. It is found in the wild only in the districts of Paderborn, Hoexter and Hochsauerlandkreis, although it is cultivated in other locations. These are industrial areas where much of the soil is contaminated with lead, zinc and other metals, which some Viola species are more able to tolerate than some other plants.

Description
Viola lutea var. westfalica is in many ways similar to the yellow-flowered V. calaminaria, and was long treated as a variety of that species. Recent studies, however, suggest that it should be treated as a separate species.

It grows as an herb up to 15 cm (6 inches) tall. Flowers are blue-violet with darker blue streaks toward the center, with prominent yellow anthers.

title: Act Your Age (song)

text:
Act Your Age is a song by Australian hip hop trio Bliss N Eso. It was released as the fourth single from their fifth studio album Circus in the Sky. The single was released through Illusive Sounds on 16 August 2013. The song peaked at #31 on the ARIA Singles Chart and was certified gold, making it Bliss N Eso's fifth gold single. The song contains a sample of "Act Yr Age" by Bluejuice. The song's message is to not worry about acting your age, just have fun. 'Act Your Age' finished at #67 on the 2013 Triple J Hottest 100.

Music video
The song's video was uploaded to Bliss N Eso's YouTube channel "blissnesoTV" on 7 August 2013, and currently has about 2,000,000 views. The video show's Bliss N Eso waking up after a night of partying and well as flashbacks to the party the day before, where they, among other things, swim, dance, eat cake and ride a helicopter. The video also contains references to Borat and Ron Burgundy, and features a cameo from comedian Alex Williamson, who features on the song "Cialis Cuts" and whom Eso has previously collaborated with comically. The video was filmed over two days at a private property in Bilambil, NSW Australia.

Critical reception
Reception to the song was positive. AAA Backstage wrote that "'Act Your Age', sampling Bluejuice's pop hit 'Act Yr Age' is a great example of Izm's scratching and is a cheeky throwback to the trio's previous style of rapping; truly a rolling romp all the way back to their early days."

Chart performance
The song debuted at No. 78 on the ARIA Singles Chart and went on to peak at No. 31, and spent a total of 12 weeks on the chart. It was certified Gold in January 2014 for sales/shipments of over 35,000 copies.

Battle of River Canard (French Bataille de Rivière aux Canards) was the site of an engagement between British and American forces on July 16, 1812, during the War of 1812. Though it is called the "Battle" of River Canard, it should be thought of as a series of skirmishes. The defined Battle of River Canard is the first skirmish that occurred in a series of small fights, and was the first example of armed conflict in Canada resulting from the War of 1812. An American force of 280 men under Colonels Cass and Miller skirmished with a British force under Lieutenant-Colonel T.B. St. George, consisting of the British 41st Regiment, Indians and Canadian militia, near the bridge. A generalized account of the battle would model after the outcome of the War of 1812, the Battle of Canard technically yielded no winner. American forces drove British soldiers back into a nearby fort, Fort Malden, but the next day Americans abandoned the ground gained. However, a more specific account suggests American victory. Before the battle, American General William HulI ordered Colonel Cass to scout for British troops. Cass encountered British outposts, and quickly maneuvered to flank the British allied forces consisting of members of the 41st Regiment, under the command of Colonel T.B. St. George. Cass's quick flank proved successful, and forced the British troops to retreat to Fort Malden. Cass's flank also opened a route to British controlled Amherstburg, but aware of the distance between the American main force and the troops that won the battle, General Hull ordered American retreat. During the first skirmish, two British soldiers, James Hancock and John Dean were captured. Hancock would die of his wounds later in the day, becoming the first British casualty of the war. Dean was taken prisoner to Detroit where his left arm was amputated due to wounds.  He would be liberated with the capture of Fort Detroit by the British one month later. Both Hancock and Dean were commended by the presiding administrator, Sir Isaac Brock. By proving a skilled soldier and administrator, Sir Isaac was commonly known as "The Hero of Upper Canada." Sir Isaac died later that year, on October 13, 1812, and is remembered as a war hero.
A second skirmish took place at Turkey Creek in present-day LaSalle, where 4 Americans were killed and dismembered by First Nations allied to the British.

title: Bruce Tasker

Bruce Tasker (born 2 September 1987) is a British former bobsledder and track athlete. He qualified for the 2014 Winter Olympics in the 4-man discipline.

Life and career
Tasker was born in 1987 in Lawrenny, Wales. When young, Tasker was a talented athlete, which led to his joining the Carmarthen Harriers athletics club at the age of 11. Specialising in the 100m, 200m and 400m disciplines, he broke club records as a youth and won at both distances at several meets, including the Welsh Championship, where he won the 200m at Swansea in 2008, and the BUSA Championships, the 400m in Bedford in 2007. In 2006 he was ranked as the United Kingdom's top under-20s athlete in the indoor 400m. Despite this he failed to reach the top level of the sport and turned his back on sprinting in 2009.

Tasker first competed for Great Britain at a competition at Loughborough, in 2006. After graduating with upper second class honours, in 2008, Tasker changed events to focus on the 200m, but after winning only a U23 British bronze medal, his interest in athletics was waning.

In 2010, while studying for a degree in Biochemistry at the University of Bath, he was introduced to bobsleigh by British racer John James Jackson. He adapted swiftly to the sport and was part of the four-man team that came first at the 2011–12 British Championships held at Winterberg. Tasker was also part of the four-man teams which represented Great Britain at the 2013 World Championships, coming in fifth and the 2014 Bobsleigh European Championships, winning a silver medal. He was also part of the four-man crew that finished second at the Lake Placid World Cup meeting in 2013.

On the 22 and 23 February 2014, Tasker represented Great Britain in the Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia, in the four-man bobsleigh; racing in the first team along with Stuart Benson, Joel Fearon and pilot John James Jackson in GBR1. It was his debut Olympics. GBR1 finished in fifth position, but in 2017 two Russian crews were disqualified for doping violations, pushing the British crew up to bronze. After the Sochi Olympics Tasker undertook training to become a bobsleigh pilot in the summer of 2014.

In November 2017 at Park City, Tasker finished third in a four-man World Cup race alongside Bradley Hall, Joel Fearon and Greg Cackett.

On 4 January 2018, he suffered a stroke, ruling him out of taking part at the 2018 Winter Olympics.

After a career in which he competed at six World Championships and an Olympics, in October 2018 Tasker announced his retirement from competition.

In March 2020, he took part in BBC1 cooking show MasterChef.
