title: Franconia Formation

text:
The Franconia Formation is a geologic formation in the upper mid-western United States, with outcroppings found in Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Ohio, and Wisconsin. It preserves fossils dating back to the Cambrian period. It was named the Franconia Formation due to the first published documentation of exposures in vicinity of Franconia, Minnesota in the 1897 Ph.D. dissertation by Charles P. Berkley at the University of Minnesota titled Geology of the St. Croix Dalles. The Franconian stratigraphic stage was named after this formation.

The formation consists of fine-grained dolomitic sandstone with interbedded shaly zones, becoming more dolomitic towards the east and south of its extent.

title: Andy Meyrick

text:
Andrew James "Andy" Meyrick (born 4 September 1985) is a British racing driver currently competing in the European Le Mans Series and GT World Challenge Europe.

Racing career

Single seaters
Meyrick made his racing debut in the BRSCC Formula Ford 1600 North West championship at Oulton Park. He won the fifth race of his career and went on to win a total of ten races during the season, taking the Pre 90 class championship in a vintage Reynard 84FF. The following season he stepped up to the British Formula Ford Championship, driving for Cliff Dempsey Racing in the Ray GR06 alongside Peter Dempsey. Later in 2006 Meyrick joined Falcon Motorsport to drive in the Formula Renault BARC Championship, earning a pole position and a second-place finish  in his third outing, at Thruxton Circuit. After the 2007 Formula Renault UK Wintercup Meyrick joined Team West-Tec for two races in the British Formula Renault. The following season Meyrick stepped up to the British Formula Three Championship with Carlin Motorsport in the National class. He drove in twelve races in the championship, earning seven class victories and a fifth place in the championship.

Endurance racing
Meyrick turned his attention to sports car racing, entering the 2009 Le Mans Series season with Kolles driving an Audi R10 TDI. The team's best finish came at the 2009 1000 km of Nürburgring, where Meyrick,  Narain Karthikeyan and Charles Zwolsman Jr. finished fourth. Meyrick joined Dyson Racing in the American Le Mans Series for the 2010 12 Hours of Sebring and the 2010 Monterey Sports Car Championships. Also in 2010, Meyrick entered his first 24 Hours of Le Mans, partnering with Soheil Ayari and Didier André in an AIM Team Oreca Matmut Oreca 01. The team finished the race as the first non-Audi, taking fourth overall. Following this success he was signed by Aston Martin Racing to join their LMP1 program. The team's best result came at the 2011 6 Hours of Zhuhai, when the No. 007 car finished sixth. Meyrick also raced in the vintage Group C Racing championship, winning two out of four races with four podium finishes and earning the C2 class title. Meyrick drove one race in an Aston Martin AMR1 in the Group C Racing championship's C1 class, winning the race from pole.

In 2012 Meyrick entered the Porsche Carrera Cup Great Britain for five events. At his debut at the Knockhill Racing Circuit he finished third behind Michael Meadows and Sam Tordoff and went on to finish 13th in the championship. Meyrick joined the DeltaWing program at beginning of the 2013 American Le Mans Series season, just before the 12 Hours of Sebring. Katherine Legge joined the team at the second race of the season and the two drivers took the team to seventh in the P1 class standings. Meyrick and Legge each led eight laps at Road America, the first race lead for the revolutionary prototype.

Late in 2013, Meyrick signed on as a "Bentley Boy" and raced in the Blancpain Endurance Series for M-Sport in a factory-backed Bentley Continental GT. Meyrick was integral in the development of the car, which he drove to fourth place in its first outing at the Abu Dhabi Gulf 12 Hours. Meyrick returned to the works Bentley GT Team in 2014, winning at Silverstone and Paul Ricard, and with teammates Guy Smith and Steven Kane, finished second in both the drivers and team championship. Meyrick also continued driving the DeltaWing in the TUDOR United SportsCar Championship, with a season-high finish of fourth at the team's home race, Petit Le Mans at Road Atlanta. Meyrick was recognized for his achievements with the John Cobb Trophy from the British Racing Drivers' Club (BRDC).

In 2015, Meyrick drove the endurance events only for the DeltaWing team, focusing on the Bentley factory Blancpain campaign. The team won two races (Paul Ricard and Spa-Francorchamps) and finished runner up in the championship.

Meyrick returned to Blancpain Endurance Series competition, now dubbed the GT World Challenge Europe, in 2023, driving for Team Parker Racing in a Porsche 911 GT3 R (992). Teamed with Derek Pierce and Kiern Jewiss, Meyrick lined up in the newly-named Bronze Cup class.

title: Galearis camtschatica

text:
Galearis camtschatica is a species of flowering plants in the orchid family, Orchidaceae, native to Korea, northern Japan, and the Russian Far East (Kuril Islands, Kamchatka, Sakhalin, Khabarovsk Krai).

Taxonomy
The species was first described by Adelbert von Chamisso in 1828, as Orchis camtschatica. It has been placed in a variety of genera, including the monotypic genus Neolindleya. On the basis of molecular phylogenetic studies, in 2014, Neolindleya was subsumed into Galearis, with the species becoming Galearis camtschatica.

title: Milwaukee Formation

text:
The Milwaukee Formation is a fossil-bearing geological formation of Middle Devonian age in Milwaukee County, Wisconsin. It stands out for the exceptional diversity of its fossil biota. Included are many kinds of marine protists, invertebrates, and fishes, as well as early trees and giant fungi.

Once a prolific source of fossils, the Milwaukee Formation exposures are now mostly buried, inaccessible, on private property, or located in areas where collecting is prohibited. Most of these exposures are or were located along the Milwaukee River and Lake Michigan shore.

History and significance
Early interest in the Milwaukee Formation was mainly of a commercial or other practical nature. Strata apparently of what would later be known as the Milwaukee Formation were utilized as early as the 1670s, when French visitors used “pitch” (natural asphalt) from the rock exposures on the shore of Lake Michigan near Milwaukee to patch their boats. The rock was later used to produce lime or building stone, and in the 1840s, Wisconsin's first resident scientist, Increase A. Lapham, noted the natural cement potential of certain of its layers. When calcined (heated to high temperatures) and crushed, cement was produced, without requiring additives or further processing. During that time, Lapham also collected fossils from those strata, which caught the attention of James Hall, Thomas Chrowder Chamberlin and other noted American paleontologists and geologists who went on to study the biota. In 1876, the Milwaukee Cement Company began manufacturing natural cement, and soon became one of the country's largest natural cement producers. Quarrying methods at that time required many hands to load rock into the dump cars destined for the kilns. This hands-on method was the perfect way for fossils to be detected. Several wealthy businessmen and professionals interested in acquiring large fossil collections recognized this and paid the quarry workers to set aside the best fossils. This continued until about 1911, when the cement rock was depleted, Portland Cement replaced natural cement, and the quarries were closed. Many thousands of high quality fossils were obtained this way between 1876 and 1911 for the collections of Thomas A. Greene, Edgar E. Teller, and Charles E. Monroe, and these can now be studied in numerous museums around central and eastern United States and Canada, especially the Milwaukee Public Museum, the Greene Geological Museum (University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee), the National Museum of Natural History, the Museum of Comparative Zoology, the Buffalo Museum of Science, the Field Museum of Natural History, Williams College, and the Royal Ontario Museum.

The fossils found during and after that time indicate that the Milwaukee Formation contains one of the richest and most diverse biotas in North America coming from a single formation of its age (late Givetian), with about 250 species coming from around 100 families, at least sixteen phyla, and four kingdoms. The formation preserves fossils of marine and terrestrial organisms, including placoderm fish that were the size of great white sharks, some of the first trees, and fungi that may have reached the height of a two-story building.

Geological setting
The Milwaukee Formation is considered to be Givetian in age (~385 mya), as determined by using its biota to correlate the strata with certain portions of the Cedar Valley Group to the west. This age determination is also consistent with the formation's placement above the Givetian Thiensville Formation and below the Frasnian to Famennian Antrim Shale.

Stratigraphy
The Milwaukee Formation lies disconformably between the Thiensville Formation and Antrim Shale. It was apparently deposited in relatively shallow, subtidal, normal marine conditions. It is divided into three members.

North Point Member
The North Point Member is the youngest (highest) member. Its contact with the underlying Lindwurm Member is transitional. It is entirely sub-surface and known only from tunneling material and cores. It consists of dark gray mudstone, dolomitic mudstone, and thin layers of dolomitic siltstone with chert and silicified fossils. The fauna is dominated by chonetid brachiopods, large tentaculitids, and bivalves. Much of it appears to have been deposited in dysaerobic conditions.

Lindwurm Member
The Lindwurm Member disconformably overerlies the Berthelet. It consists mainly of moderately to thinly-bedded, argillaceous dolomite and dolomitic siltstone or mudstone. It is extremely fossiliferous. Numerous thin layers of what appear to be storm deposits are composed largely of broken shells. Echinoderms and trilobites are more abundant and varied than in the other members.

Berthelet Member
The Berthelet Member consists mainly of relatively heavily bedded, argillaceous dolomite. The top beds are more dolomitic, thick-bedded, vuggy, and asphaltic than the lower ones. Most of the plant fossils and the majority of the fish come from this member. The top beds also contain more cephalopod fossils than elsewhere in the formation.

Taphonomy
The fossils of the Milwaukee Formation are preserved in many different ways. Most of the shelly fossils in the Berthelet Member are preserved as internal molds and external molds, whereas most of those in the Lindwurm Member are permineralized to some degree. Many fossils in all three members are formed by replacement. The most frequent replacement minerals are marcasite followed by pyrite, which are generally weathered to ferrous sulfate or limonite, respectively. Chert is a common replacement mineral in certain layers of the North Point Member. Plant fossils in the Milwaukee Formation are usually coalified to some degree.

Other taphonomic phenomena often found in the Milwaukee Formation are geodization of shelly fossils, corals, bryozoans, and echinoderms, and preservation of color patterns in certain brachiopods, trilobites, and fin spines of fish.

Biota
The most distinctive feature of the Milwaukee Formation is the diversity of its biota, as measured by the total number of species. The most species-rich group of the Milwaukee Formation's biota is the Brachiopoda, having around 46 named species and sub-species, followed by the Bivalvia, which has around 43. Those plus species and sub-species from the following groups of marine and terrestrial organisms comprise a total of approximately 250 species: agglutinated foraminifers, conulariids, rugose corals, tabulate corals, tentaculitids, microconchids, cornulitids, hyoliths, gastropods, rostroconches, nautiloids, actinoceratoids, ammonoids, polychaetes, phacopid trilobites, proetid trilobites, ostracods, phyllocarids, crinoids, blastoids, edrioasteroids, dendroid graptolites, conodonts, arthrodire placoderms, ptyctodont placoderms, rhenaniform placoderms, petalichthyiform placoderms, chondrichthyans, acanthodians, sarcopterygians, fungi, cladoxylopsids, and lycopods.

title: J. Marion Shull

text:
James Marion Shull  (1872–1948) was an American botanist known for his iris and daylily cultivars and botanical illustrations.

Career

J. Marion Shull began his career with the government as a dendrological illustrator for the U.S. Forest Service (1907–1909). He moved on to work for more than three decades as a botanist and botanical illustrator for the Bureau of Plant Industry at the U. S. Department of Agriculture, first as a botanical artist (1909–1925) and then as an associate botanist (1925–1942). He painted over 750 watercolors of nuts, fruits, and other botanical specimens, including walnuts, pineapples, figs, and especially citrus and apples for the USDA. He was a fruit disease investigator for the department, and many of his illustrations show specimens affected by disease. At the USDA, he formed part of a select group of illustrators—including Deborah Griscom Passmore, Amanda Newton, Royal Charles Steadman, Ellen Isham Schutt, and Elsie Lower—whose paintings form the core of the USDA's Pomological Watercolor Collection.

Shull also painted a number of early iris hybrids developed by the breeder Bruce Williamson, an experience that prompted him to become a plant breeder himself like his younger brother George Harrison Shull. He subsequently achieved recognition as an iris and daylily (genus Hemerocallis) breeder, producing some two dozen different iris cultivars between 1920 and 1937. His tall yellow iris cultivar named Virginia Moore received a first Honorable Mention from the American Iris Society on its introduction in 1920, and a collection of irises including Morning Splendor, Maori Princess, and Nimbus received an Award of Merit from the Takoma Horticultural Club in 1922, with Morning Splendor being singled out for special recognition. A deep red-purple cultivar that was one of the first modern irises bred out of Iris trojana, Morning Splendor went on to win both the Gold and Silver Medals of the Garden Club of America in 1926 and to become the ancestor of other successful varieties. Shull also served an accredited judge for the AIS and won the society's Distinguished Service Medal.

Shull's 1931 book Rainbow Fragments: A Garden Book of the Iris covers the history of iris breeding, cultivation tips, and hybridization techniques in Shull's characteristically "flowery and poetic" prose. It is one of the earliest books to include color plates of irises (along with black-and-white photos showing different aspects of iris cultivation), and Shull himself painted the eight color plates, which are placed before the title page. These plates show a total of 18 different iris cultivars by various breeders (including Shull's Maori Princess, Julia Marlowe, Elaine, Sequoiah, and Morning Splendor), most placed against a plain black or pale background. Although out of print, it continues to be of value to breeders for its precise descriptions of irises grown in the first third of the 20th century, and it is also sought after for Shull's elegant color illustrations. Shull also produced some illustrations for publications such as Country Life and Ladies' Home Journal.

Following World War I, Shull agitated for a peace carillon, or set of bells, to be created from melted-down cannons to commemorate the end of the war. In an article entitled "The Peace Carillon" he wrote:

It is here proposed that in the city of Washington there shall be erected a national memorial to commemorate the heroes and events of the great war, seeking to keep the chief emphasis on the esthetic and moral side rather than on that of the physical triumph of armed force.

He died at home in Chevy Chase, Maryland, on Sept. 1, 1948.

title: Santa Barbara dei Cannonieri

text:
The church of Saint Barbara of the Gunners or   or  is a small religious edifice in central Naples, Italy. It is located on Rua Catalana, near the church of San Giacomo degli Italiani. The church embedded in the Castel Nuovo of Naples, has also been called Santa Barbara (or by other sources, San Sebastiano).

History
This church has hosted many groups over the years. Initially built over the remains of a 14th-century church by commission of the Serguidone family; it was called Santa Maria dell' Incoronatella, (to distinguish it from the larger church of the Incoronata). By the late 16th century, the church housed the confraternity of the Bianchi, who founded a music conservatory in 1583, called the Conservatory of the Pietà. This group soon moved to a new site on Via Medina. The church became a parish church. In the early 17th century, it housed another confraternity, that of Santa Maria della Pietà, and the church became known as Pietatella (to distinguish it from the larger church of Pietà dei Turchini). The present building was moved to this present site on Rua Catalana in the 19th century to wide vico Pietatella, to create via dei Griffi.

In 1564, a confraternity dedicated to Saint Barbara, patronized by artillery gunners of the Royal Marine, established their first church at the church of San Giovanni a Mare near the Borgo degli Orefici. In 1727, the confraternity moved to the church of Santa Maria della Pietà dei Remolari. That church was demolished in 1940 during urban renewal, and the confraternity moved here. Till 1960, this church was the center of celebrations in a festival of Santa Barbara, including processions and fireworks, and sponsored by the Associazioni dei Corpi della Marina e degli Artiglieri. It fell in disuse, and was deconsecrated in 1981.

title: Sýslumaðurinn sem sá álfa

text:
Sýslumaðurinn sem sá álfa, by Ernir Kristján Snorrason (Reykjavík: Sögur, 2012), is an Icelandic crime novel relating to the 2008–11 Icelandic financial crisis. Unusually, it was not only published after its author's death, but actually on the day of his funeral (May 8, 2012). In the dedication of the book, Ernir calls it "my farewell to my beloved friends—and to the world I love so passionately" ("kveðja mín til ástvina minna—og umheimsins sem ég ann svo heitt").

Form

The novel belongs ostensibly to the genre of the thriller/crime novel, but takes a light-hearted, parodic tone, including absurdist elements which complicate the genre-characteristics of the thriller.

Content
The novel is set in the wake of the 2008–11 Icelandic financial crisis. The main protagonist is Bjarni, the sheriff (sýslumaður) of Rangárvallasýsla. At the start of the novel he has recently lost his wife Elínborg to cancer and recovered from major injuries caused by a fall on the day of her death. He is nevertheless called by his old friend Möller, the justice minister, to help Iceland's post-Crash Office of the Special Prosecutor to investigate the possibility that Iceland was used for money-laundering by the Russian mafia, who ran a 'bank within the bank' in the Icelandic banking sector.

Björn explains to his childhood friend Bíbí (Jónína), a bookshop owner whose husband has left her, that he cannot sleep alone as he is afraid of the dark: specifically of the elves from the elf-hill next to his family home that try to break into his house to get out of the cold. He convinces Bíbí to take a job as his personal secretary and to sleep alongside him, and thus they begin a passionate relationship that absorbs most of their attention for the course of the novel (and implicitly beyond). However, in some ways Björn has good relations with the elves: an elf called Gaui teaches Björn how to guess what people are thinking and apparently delivers him a prophetic dream explaining where the 'bank within the bank' has been stashed.

With Bíbí, Björn resolves local tensions in Rangárvallasýsla over two farmers who have swapped between them a Russian employee for a tractor, thus attracting accusations of slave-trading; and travels to New York to talk to a Canadian-Italian mafia boss, Mr Barósó, whom Björn wins over by his shrewd perception of character, and a CIA agent, Abraham Collins. Björn manages to convince Collins that the reason why Britain's Landsbanki Freezing Order 2008 froze Icelandic assets was to eliminate Iceland as a rival to the UK financial sector as Russian criminals' money-launderer of choice. Under the pretext of a terrorist threat to the American Embassy in Iceland, Collins subsequently organises a meeting in Paris with Möller, Björn, Bíbí, two Scandinavians, and Vladimir Vitkosky who as well as being Russian's representative to Europol is known to the reader both as an oligarch and as a mafia member.

The denouement of the novel sees Bjarni following his prophetic dream and a tip-off from a farmer to recover the bank within the bank, and foiling Vitkosky's attempt to kill him in revenge. The bank within the bank is secretly seized by the Icelandic Central Bank.

A native of Lumberton, North Carolina (and a graduate of The University of North Carolina at Pembroke, formerly Pembroke State University), Allen began officiating football games at the high school, and later, ACC, levels. When he made his NFL officiating debut in 2014, he was originally going to be an umpire, but when long-time referee Mike Carey announced his retirement on June 24, 2014, Allen was given the referee position instead; this was the first time since 1962 that an NFL official in his first year of officiating was given that honor (Tommy Bell was the last NFL official to do so).

He called the 2007 Motor City Bowl, the 2009 International Bowl, the 2012 Rose Bowl and the 2014 Sugar Bowl.

Outside of officiating NFL games, Allen is executive director of the N.C. Senior Games, and the CEO of a non-profit. He also serves as clinic leader and booking supervisor for the Southern Officials Association.

title: A Man Changes Skin

text:
A Man Changes Skin () is a 1960 Soviet drama film directed by Rafail Perelshtejn.

Plot
The construction of the Vakhsh Canal is underway which is one of the largest constructions of the first Five-Year Plan. Two Americans come by contract; a grizzled spy Colonel Bailey (Boris Vinogradov), who introduces himself as a harmless traveler by the name of Mr. Murray, only later to be caught red-handed and unmasked, and Mr. Clark (Sergei Kurilov), who arrives to the canal to "make money" and gradually becomes convinced that work and politics are not that different concepts. Not accepting socialism he is quite sympathetic to the enthusiasm of the Soviet people. Love for the Komsomol translator Maria Polozova (Izolda Izvitskaya) helps Clark to comprehend what is happening. In the middle of the construction is the engineer Urtabaev (Gurminch Zavkibekov), a strong, bright man, one of the first representatives of the Tajik intelligentsia. He is suspected of sabotage. However Urtabaev is not one of those who breaks under pressure - he proves his innocence concerning the sabotage and remains as one of the main construction authorities. On the festive opening day of the canal the last Basmachi gang is defeated in a fight which kills Komsomol leader Karim (Djakhon Sidmuradov).

title: Li Hongzao

text:
Li Hongzao (; 1820–1897), styled Lansun (), pseudonym Shisun (), was a high government official towards the end of the Qing dynasty. One of his sons was Li Shizeng, a prominent politician in the Chinese Nationalist Party.

Official career
Li was born in Gaoyang County, Zhili, in present-day Hebei province. In 1861, the two dowagers empresses chose Li Hongzao, Qi Junzao, and Weng Xincun, who were all Imperial teachers, to instruct the newly enthroned Tongzhi Emperor in the classics. The Emperor, who was less than five years old at the time, displayed little or no interest in his studies, and would concentrate only when Li was instructing him. Li rose to be vice-president of the Board of Revenue and Grand Councilor, and in 1872 became head of the Board of Works. He then retired for a three-year period, 1877-1880, as required by custom and statute at the death of his mother.

Upon his return to office, he resumed his post with the Grand Council and the Zongli Yamen, which was in effect the dynasty's Ministry of Foreign Affairs. In 1884, Li and all the Grand Councillors, such as Yixin, who had been supported by the Empress Dowager, Cixi, were dismissed in a dispute with a group of conservative officials. He was gradually given permission to resume responsibilities, but often criticized for not carrying them out promptly. After the outbreak of the First Sino-Japanese War in 1894, he was given even greater duties, but died in 1897.

title: Herreshoff 12½

text:
The Herreshoff 12½ Footer is a one-design keelboat.

History

Nathanael Greene Herreshoff designed the 12½ footer in 1914. It has been in continuous production since then, and is nearly universally acclaimed as one of the finest small boats of all time  He was 66 years old by then, and had all the experience from a full and legendary career of designing and building yachts. He had already accumulated 5 of the never-matched record of 6 consecutive America's Cup defenses, and 6 consecutive victories.

The Herreshoff Manufacturing Company took the first orders for the 12½ footer in 1914 and built 364 wooden hulls through 1943. Following the closing of HMC production, the Quincy Adams Yacht Yard was licensed by HMC to build the design. Quincy Adams used the Herreshoff builder's plate, and built 51 hulls from 1943 through 1948. The Quincy Adams boats had hull numbers in the 2000s, and were planked with mahogany rather than the white cedar used by HMC. They also have something of a reverse sheer forward.

In 1947, Cape Cod Shipbuilding acquired the rights to the design. They built about 35 wooden hulls between 1948 and 1950, when they switched to fiberglass.

Another company, Doughdish, Inc. is building a fiberglass version of the 12½. Since Cape Cod's rights prohibit anyone else from using the trademarked named “Herreshoff 12½”, the boat is called Doughdish. The molds were created by taking the lines from three original wooden hulls. Bill Harding, the creator of the Doughdish, took great pains to ensure his boat was an exact replica of the original, even eschewing the weight reductions afforded by fiberglass construction to ensure the Doughdish is authentic in every way (other than building material). In fact, the Doughdish is allowed to compete against the original wooden boats in association regattas, while the Cape Cod Shipbuilding 12½ is not. Finally, since 2006 the Herreshoff 12½ is once again available in wood from Artisan Boatworks of Rockport, ME.

The design was developed into the Bull's Eye, also first built in 1914 and the Buzzards Bay 14, designed in 1940.

title: Newnham Park

text:
Newnham Park (before circa 1718  Loughtor) is an historic estate in the civil parish of Sparkwell, Devon, UK. It was known as Loughtor until about 1700 when the ancient Strode family, long seated at Newnham, about 1 mile south-east of the manor house of Loughtor, abandoned Newnham and moved their residence to Loughtor (which they had inherited by a marriage in the 16th century) where they built a new mansion house which they renamed "Newnham Park". In 2014 the mansion house with an estate of about 1,550 acres is still owned by a descendant (via various female lines) of the Courtenay and Strode families which held the estate from the 15th century, and which were well established in the county of Devon long before that time. In 2014 part of the estate is operated as a commercial clay-pigeon shooting ground.

Descent
Sir William Pole (d.1635) relates the early holders of Loughtorre as follows:

Le Abbé
The first recorded holders of Loughtor was the family of Le Abbé (alias Le Abbe, le Abby)
William Le Abbé of Radford (alias Redford), in the parish of Plymstock, recorded as having held Loughtor in 1242
Robert Le Abbé
Henry Le Abbé, of Alsemston
Walter Le Abbé, whose descendants adopted the surname de Radford

de Radford
The de Radford family (formerly known as Le Abbé) continued to hold Loughtor, apparently until the 15th century, when the next known holder was William Courtenay, a younger son of Sir Philip Courtenay (d.1488) of Molland in North Devon.

Courtenay

The next recorded holder following the de Radford tenure was a younger son of the Courtenay family of Molland in North Devon. It is not clear how this family acquired Loughtor, but the feudal barony of Plympton had certainly been held by Hugh Courtenay, 2nd Earl of Devon (1303-1377), seated at Tiverton Castle and Okehampton Castle, from whom the Courtenay family of Molland was descended.
William Courtenay, a younger son of Sir Philip Courtenay (d.1488) of Molland in North Devon. His monument survives in St Mary's Church, Plympton, against the south wall of the south chancel aisle, consisting of a stone effigy of a recumbent knight on a chest tomb within a canopied niche.
Sir Philip Courtenay (son), who according to Vivian (p. 251) died without progeny, but according to Pole (p. 330) had a daughter Elizabeth.
Elizabeth Courtenay. According to Pole (p. 330) she was a daughter of Sir Philip Courtenay of Loughtor, William's son. However, according to Vivian (p. 251) she was the daughter of Philip Courtenay, William's elder brother, by his wife Jane Fowell (d.1523),  daughter of Richard Fowell of Fowelscombe in the parish of Ugborough, which former mansion house is today a ruin. Jane Fowell survived her husband and remarried (as his first wife) to Humphrey Prideaux (1487-1550) of Thuborough in the parish of Sutcombe. Elizabeth Courtenay, heiress of Loughtor, married William Strode (1512-1579) of Newnham.

Strode

William III Strode (1512-1579) of Newnham, who married Elizabeth Courtenay, heiress of Loughtor. He had by Elizabeth several sons and daughters, the eldest son and heir having been Richard V Strode (d.1581). The 6th son however was Rev. Sampson Strode (born 1552), rector of Dittisham, whose great-great-grandson was Richard Strode (1750-1790) of Boterford, who inherited the ancient estates of the senior Strodes on the failure of the male line of Strode of Newnham, following the death in 1767 of William Strode of Newnham. The 4th son was Philip Strode (d.1605) who married Wilmot Houghton, daughter of William Houghton of Houghton Towers, Lancaster, and was the father of William Strode (1602-1644), Doctor of Divinity and Public Orator of Oxford University, one of the Worthies of Devon of John Prince (d.1723), who called him  "this reverend divine, this rare poet, this charming orator".

For the descent of Loughtor in the Strode family until 1718 see Newnham (Old).

Until 1718 it is not clear what use, if any, was made by the Strode family of the old manor house of the Courtenays at Loughtor, as they appear to have continued to reside chiefly at "Old Newnham". The first of the Strodes to live at Loughtor was:
Sidney II Strode (1684-1721). He was the nephew and heir of William Strode (d.1718) of Newnham who died without progeny. Sidney II was the son of Sidney I Strode (1655-1712), who had died before his elder brother and thus did not himself inherit. Sidney II thus inherited the Strode estates aged 34, only 3 years before his own death in 1721, but during that short time abandoned Old Newnham and moved his residence to the manor of Loughtor, 1/3 mile to the north-east, where he rebuilt the manor house and called it "Newnham Park" He married Ann Trevanion, daughter of Sir Nicholas Trevanion, by whom he had a son William Strode (1718-1767)
William Strode (1718-1767) (son), who died without progeny, when the heir to Newnham Park and the other estates became his distant cousin Richard Strode (1750-1790) of Boterford. descended from William Strode (d.1579) of Newnham by his wife Elizabeth Courtenay, heiress of Loughtor.
Richard Strode (1750-1790) of Boterford, North Huish, Devon, (cousin), descended from William Strode (d.1579) of Newnham by his wife Elizabeth Courtenay, heiress of Loughtor. He resided at Newnham Park and in 1788 sold his family's former seat of Boterford and another estate at Whitecombe to Thomas Palk. He married Admonition Lear, daughter of Thomas Lear of Sandwell in the parish of Harberton. A prominent branch of this family was founded by Sir Peter Lear, 1st Baronet (died c. 1684) of Lindridge.
William Strode (d.1802) (eldest son and heir), died unmarried. One of his younger brothers was Capt. Thomas Lear Strode (1787-1817), 43rd Regiment of Foot, whose mural monument survives in St Mary's Church, Plympton.
Rev. Richard Strode (1779-1819) (brother), who married Harriet Rogers, daughter of Sir Frederick Rogers, 5th Baronet (1746–1797), MP,  of Wisdome, Devon. All four of his daughters died young, and his mural monument survives in St Mary's Church, Plympton.
George Sidney Strode (1780-1857) (brother), Sheriff of Devon in 1825. He married Dorothea Bird Symons (d.1862), daughter of William Symons of Chaddle Wood, Plympton.
George Sidney Strode (1829-1874) (son), OBE, Provincial Grandmaster of the Freemasons. He married but died without progeny.
Dorothea Georgina Admonition Strode (1823-1896) (eldest sister)

Lowe (Strode)
George Sydney Strode Lowe (nephew). He was the son of Dorothea's younger sister Florence Strode by her husband Admiral Arthur Lowe (1814-1882) of Burford, Shropshire. In 1897 in accordance with the bequest he changed his name by royal licence to Strode and adopted the arms of Strode. He married Anna Fielding Boyd, daughter of Thomson Boyd of Edinburgh, by whom he left two daughters and co-heiresses:
Anna Strode, who in 1912 married Henry Grigg (d.1935) of Cann House, Tamerton Foliot
Eileen Strode (1893-1950), who in 1932 married Col. Edward Valle-Pope (1898-1968), and left a daughter Judith Eileen Strode Valle-Pope (born 1934).

Cobbold
In 1955 Judith Eileen Strode Valle-Pope (born 1934) married Michael Maurice Cobbold (1931-2002), descended from an old Suffolk brewing dynasty, a professional soldier, engineer, publisher, preserver of ancient buildings and sheep-farmer. In 1969 Judith Cobbold (née Valle-Pope) inherited Newnham Park with its 1,550 acre estate, and with her husband developed the estate as a corporate entertainment business including shooting, archery, carriage-driving and off-road vehicles and moto-cross. Her son David Michael Strode Cobbold (born 1961) is the owner of Newnham Park in 2014.

The length of the forewings is 12–14 mm. The forewings exhibit a pale, whitish gray to buffy gray coloration, adorned with darker gray reniform and orbicular spots, each distinguished by their outline accentuated by a contrasting pale line. The hindwings are dirty white with fuscous shading on the margins and veins in both sexes. Adults have been recorded on wing from early April to early July and again from mid-August to late October.

title: Protorthodes antennata

text:
Protorthodes antennata is a moth in the family Noctuidae first described by William Barnes and James Halliday McDunnough in 1912. It has a small distribution in North America, extending from central Arizona to northernmost Mexico.

The length of the forewings is 10–14 mm. The reniform spot on the forewings is not outlined like in other Protorthodes species. There is a series of tiny white dots that partially define the reniform spot, and a series of tiny yellow dots that form a partial outer border of the spot. Adults have been recorded on wing from mid-May to mid-June and in October.

title: Dry cell (prison)

text:
In prison terminology a dry cell is a room that prisoners are placed in that lacks any plumbing facilities such as a toilet or shower. In the Federal Bureau of Prisons, a dry cell can be used if a prisoner claims to be unable to urinate for a drug test under direct visual supervision. Prisoners are also sometimes placed in dry cells if they are suspected of having swallowed contraband. The idea is that they will eventually excrete all the contents of their digestive system, and lacking any toilet, they will be unable to dispose of it and thereby prevent prison officials from acquiring the evidence.

Laws

Canada
In Canada, the practice of dry celling is regulated under the Corrections and Conditional Release Act:

In November 2021 it was announced that Justice John A. Keith of the Nova Scotia Supreme Court had struck down the law allowing the practice, saying that it violated the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms and discriminates against women, and had called on Parliament to draft new legislation. Earlier in the same year, the Correctional Services division of the Nova Scotia Department of Justice had suspended their use of dry celling. Justice Minister Mark Furey announced that the use of body scanning technology had eliminated the need for dry cells.

title: Protorthodes rufula

text:
Protorthodes rufula, the rufous Quaker moth, is a moth in the family Noctuidae. The species was first described by Augustus Radcliffe Grote in 1874. It is found in western North America along the Pacific Coast, and the coastal mountain ranges from northern Washington to southern California.

The length of the forewings is 13–16 mm. The forewing ground color varies from pale whitish buff, through various shades of red and orange, to brown. Almost all specimens show some areas or patches of rufous shading. Adults have been recorded on wing from mid-April to mid-June in the north (from mid-February in southern California) and again from early August to late October.

The larvae feed on various hardwoods in the family Rosaceae, including Prunus and Malus species.

title: Norma Bull

text:
Norma Catherine Bull (7 September 1906 – September 1980) was an Australian painter, printmaker and etcher, best known for the paintings and sketches she made in Britain during World War II.

Early life
Bull was born and grew up in Melbourne, where her father was the director of bacteriology at Melbourne University In 1932, she graduated from the National Gallery of Victoria Art School, having won numerous prizes and scholarships during her time as a student. In 1934, she sold two works to the Melbourne Art Gallery and, in the same year, the poet John Masefield agreed to sit for her whilst visiting Melbourne. The resulting etched portrait was shown at the Royal Academy in 1940.

World War Two

Bull moved to England to widen her artistic experience, arriving in London in April 1939. When the World War II was declared in September that year, Bull volunteered for civil defence work. She worked as a volunteer at a First Aid Clearing Station near Oxford, where she received training in first aid and fire fighting. She went on to train other volunteers at a first aid post in Somerset, and helped with evacuees and did fire-watching shifts in Bath. Early in 1941, supported by a recommendation from John Masefield, Bull contacted the War Artists' Advisory Committee (WAAC), offering her services as an artist. In February 1941, she was given a sketching permit to record bomb damage in Bristol. An exhibition of her drawings was held in at the Harris Gallery in Bath in 1941.

When some of the sketches were published in Australian newspapers, the BBC asked Bull to make a number of radio broadcasts to Australia. In August 1942, whilst staying in Bournemouth, she asked to sketch at the Observer Corps post on Canford Cliffs and, despite permission from the Officer Commanding of the post, the Chief Constable of Dorset complained about her presence and Bull temporarily lost her sketching permit. As well as bomb damage in Bath and Bristol, her wartime subjects included Chelsea Pensioners, children helping with the harvest and searchlights illuminating St Paul's Cathedral on the night of V-E Day.

Three of Bull's painting, including one of the bomb damage to the Temple Church in London, were purchased by the WAAC for between eight and ten guineas each. In 1947, an exhibition of her wartime work was held at Australia House in London. The show was well reviewed and the Queen attended and bought nine paintings, which remain in the Royal Collection. A similar exhibition of Bull's work, entitled Great Britain in Wartime, toured Australia for several years after the war.

Later life
After the war, Bull returned to Australia where she continued her career as an artist. She spent twelve months travelling around the country with Wirth's Circus, painting scenes of circus life. She then returned to Melbourne to live in her childhood home, Medlow, in Surrey Hills. As well as painting and teaching art, Bull served as the secretary of the Fellowship of Australian Artists from 1960. She painted landscapes and seascapes, often at her holiday homes in Anglesea and Bright. She was a nature lover and promoted forest conservation.

title: Standard Schedules Information Manual

text:
The Standard Schedules Information Manual (SSIM) published by the International Air Transport Association documents international airline standards and procedures for exchanging airline schedules and data on aircraft types, airports and terminals, and time zones.

SSIM is a file format that heavily compresses schedule information. Because it is accepted by most airlines and backed by IATA it simplifies the sharing of data between airlines, airports, reservation systems and many other aviation entities. The SSIM format includes structured data elements such as flight numbers, departure and arrival times, airport codes, aircraft types, and other information. These elements are defined in a specific order that forms a structural hierarchy.
