title: Experimentalist approach to econometrics

text:
The experimentalist approach to econometrics is  a way of doing econometrics that, according to Angrist and Krueger (1999): … puts front and center the problem of identifying causal effects from specific events or situations. These events or situations are thought of as natural experiments that generate exogenous variations in variables that would otherwise be endogenous in the behavioral relationship of interest. An example from the economic study of education can be used to illustrate the approach. Here we might be interested in the effect of effect of an additional year of education (say X) on earnings (say Y). Those working with an experimentalist approach to econometrics would argue that such a question is problematic to answer because, and this is using their terminology, education is not randomly assigned. That is those with different education levels would tend to also have different levels of other variables. And these other variable, many of which would be unobserved (such as innate ability), also affect earnings. This renders the causal effect of extra years of schooling difficult to identify.  The experimentalist approach looks for an instrumental variable that is correlated with X but uncorrelated with the unobservables.

title: Wirrealpa

text:
Wirrealpa Station is a pastoral lease that operates as a sheep station and cattle station in South Australia.

The property is situated approximately  south east of Leigh Creek and  north east of Quorn, on the eastern side of the Flinders Ranges.

It occupies an area of  and has been owned by the same family for five generations.

The lease dates back to the early 1850s, with the station being established in 1856, John Chambers owned the station in the late 1850s and eventually sold it to Philip Levi. Levi had sustained heavy losses through the drought in the 1860s and Wirrealpa was acquired by John Howard Angus in 1871.

The shearers quarters were built in 1860, today they are used as accommodation for tourists visiting the area.

In 1953 the property occupied an area of  and was placed on the market to be sold as one lot or split into four blocks. It was stocked with 16,000 sheep at the time that were not included in the deal.
F. H. Fargher and sons acquired a  portion of Wirrelapa in 1953, including the eight bedroom stone homestead situated on the area. They bought the property from the Mundi Mundi Pastoral Company at a cost of £65,688.
The Fargher family still owned the property in 2014 even after suffering through a twenty-year drought from 1990 to 2010.

The land occupying the extent of the Wirrealpa pastoral lease was gazetted by the Government of South Australia as a locality in April 2013 under the name 'Wirrealpa'.

title: 3rd Special Forces Division (Greece)

text:
The 3rd Special Forces Division () was a division encompassing the special forces units of the Hellenic Army.

The first similar unit was formed as the 3rd Raiding Division () during the final stages of the Greek Civil War (1946–49). Commanded by the "father of Greek Special Forces", Andreas Kallinskis, the division grouped the Mountain Raiding Companies (LOK) into five squadrons (I–V) in two brigades (I and II), and took part in the final operations of the Battle of Grammos in August 1949, that ended the civil war in a victory for government forces.

The 3rd Special Forces Division was formed again in 1978, when, in the aftermath of the Turkish invasion of Cyprus, it became clear that a unified command for the various special forces units of the Army was necessary, if they were to function as a rapid reaction force. The division grouped together the 32nd Marines Brigade, the 1st Raider Regiment and the 2nd Paratroopers Regiment. The division was disbanded in 1988, but a similar role is now fulfilled by the 1st Infantry Division.

title: Meydan Mosque, Kashan

text:
The Meydan mosque is a historical mosque in Kashan, Iran. It is located in the southern side of the Sang-e Ghadimi square and beside the Bazaar of Kashan. It is one of the oldest structures in Kashan. The primary structure belonged possibly to the seljuq era, but it was destroyed by the Mongols during their invasions. Later it was rebuilt and repaired by Khaje Emad ed-Din. A quotation for this matter is an inscription in the old mihrab, in which it is mentioned that it is built in 623 Hijri (1226 AD) by Hassan ebn-e Arabschah in Kashan. The mihrab was in its original place until the last century, but it is kept now in the Museum of Islamic art in Berlin.

Jane Dieulafoy describes the mihrab as follows:
"Meydan mosque is a spacious structure with an appropriate architectural technique, but its distinctive characteristic in comparison with other similar structures is its exquisite mihrab, which is covered with splendid tiles with metal reflections. With respect to their high-quality these tiles are like the famous tiles of Imamzadeh Yahya in Varamin."

Abd ol-Ghaffar Najm od-Dole predicted well in 1882 the future of the mihrab as follows:
"The embossed tiles, which I saw in the mihrab of Meydan mosque, were very interesting and spectacular. Westerners will buy them at least 2000 Tomans and will take the poor tiles away, if they can get a chance."

The mosque had in its past glorious times high iwans, a splendid inner dome space, large yard, Shabestan and Howz hall, but despite many repairs most parts of the mosque have been destroyed. The mosque had a special social and political importance, which can be realized from many orders written above its portal. These orders date back to the 15th century in the Kara Koyunlu era until the 19th century in the Qajar era. These orders include guidelines, regulations and commands about the buying and selling of goods and food stuffs with approved prices of that time and about the prohibition of gamble and acts against the sharia.

The portal of the mosque stands out because of its pure Iranian architectural techniques.

The former stone minaret was destroyed in 1778 in the late Safavid era by an earthquake.

title: Point Marsden

text:
Point Marsden (also called Marsden Point) is a headland located on the north coast of Kangaroo Island in South Australia.  It was named after William Marsden, Second Secretary to the Admiralty by Matthew Flinders in 1802.  It is the western extremity of Nepean Bay and has been the site of a navigation aid since 1915.

Description
Point Marsden is the most easterly point of the Kangaroo Island coast that directly adjoins Investigator Strait.  It is the termination for a pair of coastlines - one extending from Cape Borda in the west and the other extending from Cape Rouge from the south in Nepean Bay.  It is described as being ‘a rocky headland of moderate height’ and that ‘High wooded land rises about  W of it.’ It is the western extremity of the opening to Nepean Bay.

Formation, geology and oceanography
Point Marsden was formed when the sea reached its present level 7,500 years ago after sea levels started to rise at the start of the Holocene.
The cliff line which includes Point Marsden consists of a metamorphic rock belonging to the Kangaroo Island Group bedrock called Boxing Bay Formation.
The water adjoining Point Marsden drops to a depth of  at the outer edge of the wave-cut platform at the base of its cliff face.

History

Aboriginal use
By 1999, the literature had not cited any archaeological discoveries specific to Aboriginal use of land in the immediate vicinity of Point Marsden.

European discovery
Point Marsden was discovered  by Matthew Flinders  on 21 March 1802 and named after William Marsden, Second Secretary to the Admiralty.

Navigation aid
A navigation aid consisting of a  tower with a single flashing light was installed in 1915.  The light which is  above sea level, assists vessels underway at night in Investigator Strait.  The need for a navigation aid at Point Marsden was suggested as early as 1882 and was one of four sites recommended for immediate construction of navigation aids  in 1912 when the responsibility for navigation transferred from the South Australian government to the Australian government.

Economic activity
As of 2014, the land adjoining Point Marsden is used for farming.  Farming activity at the locality is reported as being underway as early as 1908 with most of the land being cleared of native vegetation by 1945.

title: Higher (Star Pilots song)

text:
"Higher" is a song written by Johan Fjellström, Joakim Udd and Johan Becker, and performed by Star Pilots at Melodifestivalen 2009. The song was performed in the 4th semifinal inside the Malmö Arena on 28 February 2009, and went further to Andra chansen where it ended up knocked out.

title: Michael Barne (politician)

text:
Lieutenant-Colonel Michael Barne (3 June 1759 – 19 June 1837) was a British military officer and a Member of Parliament for Dunwich between 1812 and 1830.

Early life and family

Born on 3 June 1759, Barne was the fourth son of Miles Barne of Sotterley, Suffolk, and his second wife, Mary Thornhill, a daughter of George Thornhill of Diddington, Huntingdonshire. He was educated at Westminster School in the years 1772–73, before admission to Trinity Hall, Cambridge, in 1774; he matriculated in 1777.

Military career

After matriculating from Cambridge, Barne began his military career as a Cornet in the 7th Dragoons in 1778. His family connections furthered his promotion through the armed forces: Captain, 1783, Major, 1794, and Lieutenant-Colonel in 1799. Additionally, he was Commandant of the 7th Dragoons under the Duke of York in the Dutch Campaign of 1793-4 and in the Helder expedition of 1799. He retired from active service in 1804, before taking up a commission in the Yeomanry Volunteers in 1805.

Member of Parliament

After his elder brother, Snowdon Barne, took up a Commission on the Custom Board in 1812, the seat he had held in the constituency of Dunwich fell vacant. The Barne family had held this seat in their ‘pocket’ since 1764 and its dwindling population led to it becoming a notorious "Rotten Borough". There was, therefore, no real contest to Michael Barne superseding his brother and he became the M.P. in 1812. He was not an active Member and is not known to have spoken in a debate prior to 1820, but did vote, largely with the Government, on some measures prior to that year; for instance, he voted against Catholic relief in 1813 and 1817, and supported ministers on army matters and property tax in 1816.

He voted (1821) with the Government over its conduct in the trial of Queen Caroline, and against Catholic relief in 1822 and 1825. He was returned again in 1826, and voted against Catholic relief twice more in 1827 and 1828; he was expected to vote for Catholic Emancipation in 1829, but opposed it and went on to oppose Jewish Emancipation the following year. In 1830, he stepped down to allow his son, Frederick Barne, become MP for the borough.

Family and later life

On 2 October 1798, Barne married Mary Boucherett, sister of Ayscoghe Boucherett, MP for Great Grimbsy, and daughter of the elder Ayscoghe Boucherett, of Willingham and Stallingborough, Lincolnshire, of which county he was High Sheriff in 1754, and Mary White, his wife. Mrs Barne died at Sotterley on 11 December 1858, aged 94, and was buried on 20 December. Together, they had two children:

 Emilia Mary Barne (1800–1892). She married on 22 May 1839 to General Sir Edward Bowater, , of Hampton Court. She died at Thatched House Lodge, Richmond Park, aged 92, on 25 March 1892.
 Captain Frederick Barne,  (1801–1890). Member of Parliament for Dunwich, 1830–32.

Barne succeeded to the estate of his elder brother, Snowdon, on his death in 1825. He would spend the last years of his life concerned with maintaining the family's estates and financial interests, and spent his time either at Dunwich or in London. Michael Barne died on 19 June 1837 in Grosvenor Street, London, and was buried on 8 July at Dunwich.

title: Bass v Gregory

text:
Bass v Gregory (1890) is an English tort law and English land law case, concerning a ventilation shaft on under or through adjoining land (a "passage of air"). It was deemed an easement by prescription, having been used without long interruptions for forty years.  At the time of the case, the law, and the leading judge made a fine technical distinction between prescription by statute and by the common law doctrine of lost modern grant.

Facts
Bass and her tenant owned a pub called The Jolly Anglers in Meadow Road, Beeston, Nottingham. They brought a claim against the owner of neighbouring land (including the cottage in which he lived), Gregory, for blocking a ventilation shaft out of Bass' cellar. Bass brewed beer in the cellar, and the ventilation shaft allowed the fumes to run out of the cellar, through the ground, which connected to Gregory's water well, out of which the air escaped. The shaft had existed for at least 40 years.

Judgment
Pollock B held that Bass had a right to the passage, because the law deemed that if a right had been exercised for a long number of years, there was a legal foundation to the right. He said the following.

title: Bambra

text:
Bambra is a rural locality in the Surf Coast Shire, Victoria, Australia. In the 2016 census, Bambra had a population of 101 people. It is named after an Aboriginal word for mushroom.

The locality was initially named "Retreat", but was later renamed Bambra after an Aboriginal word for mushroom. The area was opened up for selection in the 1860s. Bambra State School was opened on 20 September 1866, closed temporarily in 1945–1946, and closed permanently in 1969. The Bambra Chapel, a Bible Christian Church, was opened in 1868, and became a Methodist church in 1903. A second church, the Holy Trinity Anglican Church, held its first service on 25 May 1902. Bambra Post Office opened on 23 September 1892 and closed on 29 September 1973. The churches have also closed, although one survives as a private house.

The area has predominantly been used for agricultural, pastoral and dairying purposes; however, a coal mine in adjacent Winchelsea South, sometimes referred to as the Bambra mine, was active from 1921 until between 1928 and 1931, and from 1943 to 1957. Since 2013, the area has been home to the Meadow Music Festival every March featuring various alternative and indie musicians at the Otway Hinterlands Meadow.

The locality still has a public hall, cemetery and a Hare Krishna retreat.

title: Ana Plácido

text:
Ana Plácido (1831—1895) was a Portuguese novelist and author. Her best known work is the 1871 novel Herança de Lágrimas (English: A Legacy of Tears), and she is also noted for an autobiographical book Luz Coada por Ferros (English: Light Filtered Through Bars; published in 1863). She was married to the author Camilo Castelo Branco, with whom she earlier had an extra-marital affair while she was married.

Herança de Lágrimas tells the story of a married woman named Diana who decides not to engage in adultery after reading the story of her mother's fate after doing similarly. The novel was written to try and "voice a female-centred perspective on life" according to the academics Hilary Owen and Cláudio Pazos Alonso.

On March 9, 1888, Camilo and Ana were finally married. Camilo Castelo Branco, tormented by blindness and paralysis resulting from syphilis that he had suffered for years, committed suicide in 1890. Ana Plácido would die years later, suddenly, on the night of September 20th 1895, in São Miguel de Seide; her sons would soon follow her (Manuel had already died in 1877): Nuno died in 1896 and Jorge in 1900.

title: Brothers (2015 film)

text:
Brothers is a 2015 Indian Hindi-language sports action film, based on Mixed Martial arts (MMA) directed by Karan Malhotra and produced by Dharma Productions, Lionsgate Films and Endemol India. An official remake of the 2011 American film Warrior, it stars Akshay Kumar and Sidharth Malhotra with Jacqueline Fernandez, Jackie Shroff and Shefali Shah in supporting roles.

The first look poster of the film was released on 9 March 2015 and film was released on 14 August 2015 on Independence Day weekend.

Plot
The film opens in medias res where street fighting issues are raised in Mumbai. Sports chairman Peter Braganza expresses his desire of making street fighting a legal sport and decides to open a league called Right 2 Fight (R2F). Meanwhile, imprisoned Garson "Gary" Fernandes, a recovering alcoholic and former MMA expert under rehabilitation, is released from his jail term, and his younger son Monty comes to pick him up. Monty gets tensed when his father asks about his elder son David and takes him away to their home. At home, Gary acts protective of all the belongings of his wife, Maria, who died many years ago. David, now a physics teacher, has a daughter with a kidney ailment. Unable to arrange money from the bank and other sources, he starts to earn money through street fights, as he was once a promising MMA fighter when he was younger. This stresses out his wife, Jenny, as she is worried about David. Meanwhile, Gary, who misses his wife Maria, starts hallucinating about her and violently attacks a mirror from self-hating about how he destroyed his family. Monty rushes to stop and comfort his father, realizing how much regret he has. Gary then tries to meet David, but the latter ends up throwing Monty and Gary out of his house in a rage after Gary sees his granddaughter and learns David named her after his mother, Maria.

Over a flashback, Monty is revealed to be Gary's illegitimate child. Maria nevertheless loved Monty, as she did David. The two brothers had a close, loving relationship until David was 23 and Monty was 15. On the night of Monty's 15th birthday, Gary came home drunk and apologized to Maria for destroying the family, but mentioned his lover Sarah's name, instead of Maria's. An enraged Maria confronted Gary about this, and in a drunken state, Gary hit Maria, who was injured from hitting her head on the furniture and died. A furious David pushed Gary aside; when Monty came close to Maria, who reached out to him before passing, David angrily pushed him away, holding his father and half-brother equally responsible for his mother's death. This is what created the rift between Gary, Monty, and David.

David later loses his job in school when principal Shobhit Desai learns about David's involvement in street fights. Monty, who wants to be a fighter, is then introduced to Suleiman Pasha, a fighting agent who is old friends with Gary, as they trained together. Suleiman fixes a match with Mustafa in which Monty is defeated. This enrages Gary, but Monty asks for a rematch with Mustafa, where Monty brutally defeats Mustafa after listening to his father’s advice and is declared a selected fighter for R2F by Peter. The fight is recorded and uploaded to YouTube, and soon Monty becomes an internet sensation. Monty undergoes training to become the R2F champion. Meanwhile, David, too, decides to be a full-time fighter, and Jenny encourages him to do so. Suleiman is initially unconvinced by David but arranges a match while Monty celebrates his victory at a bar. David is soon victorious in the fight and is accepted for R2F after convincing Suleiman of his true potential. R2F begins its grand debut and soon becomes a sensation as fighters from all over the world show their interest in the league. Monty easily defeats his opponents till he goes up against Luca, a fighter who is notorious for brutally knocking out his opponents(Gama and Potter) but manages to knock him out, shocking the audience as he becomes the first finalist. Meanwhile David the underdog comes up with a robust game plan to outlast his opponents (Ronnie and Tenzin) to reach the semis. There, he fights Hammer; an aggressive fighter who kicks the cage, injuring Gary. This leads to David going in all out attack mode to violently assault Hammer in retaliation, and he too advances to the finale. After beating their last opponents the brothers are now the finalists and their identities as siblings are revealed to the public causing massive media coverage for the R2F.

Gary, feeling guilty about his sons fighting each other instead of loving one another because of his mistake, leaves the arena. Jenny, David’s students, principal, and everyone back at Suleiman’s fight club watch the match, which becomes brutal from the heated rivalry between the brothers. Monty proves dominant in striking and throws in cheap shots to taunt David, Gary heads back to the arena when he sees the fight. During the fight, David breaks Monty's shoulder, which causes David concern as Monty refuses to give up. Gary rushes towards the cage and apologizes for his mistakes, and tells David not to direct his anger towards his brother. Monty continues to fight despite David’s plea to stop. David gets Monty in a rear-naked chokehold and tells Monty not to fight anymore. Monty, in turn, tells David to continue to choke him because David is selfish and never considered how Monty felt that night, telling him Maria was also his mother and how lonely he was without her and David in his life. David moved to tears, now realizing how much pain he caused to his brother finally apologizes, and Monty allows David to win the championship. David takes Monty in his arms, and both brothers walk backstage, now having finally reconciled.

For the role of an MMA fighter, Kumar had taken up a weight-specific diet and shot scenes depicting his actual workout. He also underwent a six-month training of several martial art forms including judo, kyūdō, aikido, and karate.

Actor Sidharth Malhotra trained in Jujitsu and aikido. It was speculated that he gained 10 kilograms for the role.

Marketing
Vroovy a joint venture of Hungama and Gameshastra had released the 3D video game titled Brothers: Clash of Fighters available for Android phones.

Soundtrack

The soundtrack of the album is composed by Ajay–Atul, while the lyrics are written by Amitabh Bhattacharya. Critic Joginder Tuteja from Bollywood Hungama gave 3 stars of 5, quoting, "The music of Brothers doesn't really go all the way when it comes to good expectations that came from it being a big chartbuster album in the making. However, from a situational numbers perspective, it does well to keep you engaged for the most part of it. Expect the 'Brothers Anthem' to haunt you all the more once you are through experiencing it with the film." Kasmin Fernandes from Times of India rated 3 out of 5 with mixed reviews. The song "Mera Naam Mary Hai" is a cover version of "Ye Maina", which was composed by the same composer from the Marathi film Jatra: Hyalagaad Re Tyalagaad.

Reception

Trade Analyst Komal Nahta said, "On the whole, Brothers, a mixed martial arts film, may carry mixed reports, but it will ultimately prove to be a paying proposition for all concerned. It will do good business in multiplexes and single-screen cinemas, and an 'A', 'B', 'C' and 'D' class centers."

Film critic Subhash K Jha gave 4 stars out of 5 and said "Brothers may not appeal to those who look for laughter in times of despair. There is barely room for a whiff of a smile in this dark sanguinary and seductive tale of destruction and redemption told in a free-wheeling style that accommodates derivations and innovations without apology or awkwardness." The Times of India(TOI) gave 3 stars out of 5. Bollywood Hungama gave 3 stars out of 5. Koimoi(koimoi.com) gave 2.5 stars out of 5.

Film critic Raja Sen for Rediff wrote, "Weighing 158 unbearable minutes, Brothers is nearly 600-times as long as the Rousey win – and not one-millionth as thrilling." Sen reviewed the characters of the film and concluded, "But that's all this film has, a ball-busting Kumar and one particular fight that ends with delightful abruptness. Everything else is exhausting." He gave the film 1.5 stars out of 5. Saibal Chatterjee of NDTV opines, "For all the hoopla, Brothers, in going for the jugular, punches well below its weight. It makes so much noise that any sensible point about brotherly bonding and filial fidelity that it might be trying to make is completely drowned out by the decibels. Take your earplugs along." He gave the film 2.5 stars out of 5. Anuj Kumar of The Hindu newspaper reviewed, "The problem is, be it emotion or action, Karan is in no hurry to say cut. At times it works for the emotion to seep in, but many times, over-elaboration dilutes the punch. The music is a letdown. Kareena Kapoor deserved a better song and choreography for the special appearance." Shubhra Gupta of The Indian Express summarized, "Akshay Kumar, Sidharth Malhotra's film gets dragged down by its over-wrought mawkishness." At first post, critic Deepanjana Pal stated, "Akshay Kumar is hot but with Jackie Shroff and Sidharth Malhotra this film is a hot mess. A few more films like Brothers and Bollywood will have achieved what no amount of litigation can manage — the freedom to copy freely. Because if Gavin O'Connor, who directed and co-wrote Warrior, ever sees how his story has been brutalized, he might just go on a campaign claiming that intellectual property rights be damned, Hollywood is better off not being associated; with Bollywood remakes." Martin D'souza from Glamsham stated "The fight director makes BROTHERS look good" and gave 2 stars out of 5. Subhash K. Jha from skjbollywoodnews stated "Definitely one of Akshay Kumar's glorious achievements." and gave 4 stars out of 5.

Box office
Brothers made Rs.52.08 crore in its opening weekend in India. The film brought in  internationally. Adding the film's gross India business of 70.30 crores, after week one Brothers' worldwide business stands at 106 crores at the box office.

India
In the season where films have started doing well at the box office, Brothers have managed to find an audience for itself over the weekend. If the start was good, if not phenomenal, there was some good escalation waiting to take place for the rest of the weekend. Saturday was always going to be the key for the film, and the Karan Malhotra film managed to cross the 21 crore mark. Sunday did not see as many footfalls as Saturday but still did better than Friday, as a result of which 52.08 crores came in once the weekend was through.
Brothers made quite a low business on its 3rd day, i.e., 1st Sunday at the box office. The movie collected 15.45 crores on Sunday, which is almost equal to its Friday business (15.20 crores). Nevertheless, thanks to its super jump on Day 2, the film's overall opening weekend collections have come to a good amount of 52.08 crores. The film now stands as the 2nd Highest Weekend Grosser of the year. Bajrangi Bhaijaan, with 102.60 crores, holds the record of Top weekend grosser of 2015. The film went on to collect just 64.80 crores net in its first week in India which is a poor result because it has a big holiday.
Brothers crashed 88% in its second weekend as it grossed just 5.25 crore net approx in its second weekend.
The ten days business of film is just 69.83 crores. Brothers grossed 80 lakhs net on its second Monday and has grossed just 6 crore net approx in its first four days of the second week.

Overseas
Brothers performed poorly overseas but managed to garner around $2.4 million in the first weekend, the Persian Gulf region, Pakistan, USA, and UK were the top markets
 Brothers did $3.6 Million after 12 days.

title: Uncancylus foncki

text:
Uncancylus foncki is a species of small, freshwater, air-breathing limpet, an aquatic pulmonate gastropod mollusc in the family Planorbidae, the ram's horn snails and their allies.

Taxonomic notes
Some authors consider U. foncki a synonym of U. concentricus due to the similarity of their shell shapes.

Distribution
U. foncki is endemic to Chile, where it occurs in lake Llanquihue and the Maullín river, which originates as the outflow of the lake, in the Llanquihue province. The type locality of the species is lake Llanquihue.

U. foncki is known only from museum specimens. Attempts to locate the species in its type locality and the surrounding areas, so as to confirm its identity, have failed.

Description
U. foncki has a high, wide shell with an elliptical aperture. The apex is acute but not sharp, as in U. concentricus, located slightly to the right of the midline, dorsally flattened and bent to the right but not reaching the edge of the shell. The protoconch exhibits irregularly arranged tenuous punctuations. The teleoconch exhibits fine growth lines, while radial lines and periostracal hair are absent.

The University of Queensland Anthropology Museum is located in Brisbane, Australia.  It houses the largest university collection of ethnographic material culture in Australia.

Location
The Museum is located on level 1 of the Michie Building at the St Lucia campus of The University of Queensland

History
The Museum was formed in 1948 by Dr Lindsey Winterbotham's donation of over 1,000 objects.  The initial focus of the Museum was on the material culture of Aboriginal Australia, but swiftly broadened to incorporate a diverse range of material from Papua New Guinea, Solomon Islands and the broader Pacific region.  Early donors to the museum included missionaries, researchers and anthropologists such as Ursula McConnel and AP Lyons.

Under subsequent Directors (Dr Peter Lauer, Dr Leonn Satterthwait and Dr Diana Young), the Museum developed an active exhibition program and strengthened the Museum's involvement in community engagement, research and teaching.

Collection
The Museum houses over 28,000 artefacts and over 8,000 photographs. The collection includes field collections and private donations and as a whole describes mid-late 20th century intercultural engagements in Queensland and the Pacific region.

The Museum holds a broad range of stone artefacts from across Australia.

The collection includes smaller collections from southern Africa and Southeast Asia, as well as a collection of colonial surveying equipment from William Landsborough and Augustus Gregory.

title: Chiltern Firehouse

text:
The Chiltern Firehouse is a restaurant and hotel located at 1 Chiltern Street, Marylebone, London, England, occupying the Grade II listed building of the former Marylebone Fire Station, also known as Manchester Square Fire Station. It is owned by André Balazs, a hotel chain owner, who also owns the Chateau Marmont in Los Angeles, California. The head chef is Luke Nunns.

Manchester Square Fire Station

The Manchester Square Fire Station was built in 1889, by the London County Council Architect's Department, "in the Vulliamy manner". "Red brick with stone dressings; tiled roof. Free Tudor-Gothic style". It initially served as a fire station, and was one of the first fire stations in London. The original architect was Robert Pearsall. Originally known as Manchester Square Fire Station (Manchester Square is nearby), it was decommissioned in June 2005 by the London Fire and Emergency Planning Authority. For some years subsequently, it had been in occasional use as an exhibition space for local artists, as there was a long and complex planning process to convert it to a luxury hotel and restaurant. David Archer of Archer Humphryes Architects acted as lead architect for the project.

Chiltern Firehouse hotel and restaurant

The Chiltern Firehouse opened as a 26-suite hotel and 200 capacity restaurant in 2013. It is the first British establishment by American hotelier André Balazs.

Interior
The Firehouse features an open kitchen. The restaurant interior is designed by Paris-based Studio KO. The Independent'''s restaurant critic Tracey MacLeod described the interior by saying that "they've kept the huge firehouse doors, giving an almost rustic feel, while cleverly-placed mirrors create the illusion of infinite space." Londonist reported: The look of the space is unique. A ceiling clad with fabric that would feel at home on the seats of the Bakerloo line, carpeted corridors your gran would like, and a scattering of pot plants and nic-nacs lend a feel that's simultaneously homely and nothing at all like a home you could imagine. Grace Dent of the London Evening Standard described a "glorious dining room that is part classic French brasserie, part industrial—supporting pillars, a fireman's pole and low-hanging lights—and part chintzy in-joke with pot plants, ornaments, thick hallway carpets and marble tables."

Food hygiene failingsThe Times reported in August 2014 that officers from Westminster City Council's food safety team had awarded the restaurant only two stars out of a possible five when the restaurant was inspected. Inspectors had found dirty surfaces, food served below safe temperatures, dirty fly screens, poor access to hot water and soap, and broken glass in a freezer. A former chef who spoke to The Times said: "Upstairs the diners could see the chefs working away in the open-plan kitchen, but downstairs it was a different story ... We had people using an ironing board to chop herbs on and there was no extraction". The article was accompanied by a photograph of a chef using an ironing board to prepare food. The Chiltern Firehouse commented that the "vast majority" of the problems had been rectified.Celebs' haunt Chiltern Firehouse given two stars out of five by food hygiene inspectors Alexandra Rucki, London Evening Standard, 4 August 2014. Retrieved 7 August 2014.

Celebrity patronage and criticism
In June 2014, The Daily Telegraph called it "London's hottest celebrity hangout", saying: "Once upon a time, celebrities liked to nibble their lettuce leaves at The Ivy. Then, the place to go for your sushi (and a quick romp in the broom cupboard) was Nobu. These days, it's the Chiltern Firehouse".

The Daily Mirror noted the Firehouse's exclusive reputation, asking: "Fancy booking a table at Chiltern Firehouse? Well unless your name is written on the Hollywood Walk of Fame then you may as well give up!" The Daily Telegraph reported a "rigorous screening process to accept bookings", saying: "Chiltern Firehouse is all about who's who and with the amount of detail gone into creating what has to be one of the loveliest and coolest new places in London, it's almost justified." MacLeod appeared critical of the exclusivity of the Firehouse, writing: The garage, once home to the fire engines, now revs with the self-congratulatory hum of a fashionable crowd, who have scored a table despite a bookings policy apparently borrowed from the North Korean tourist board. [...] Appropriate perhaps, that in keeping with its previous incarnation, the Firehouse seems to operate a strict no-civilians policy. Britta Jaschinski of Time Out said: "Checking in feels a bit like arriving at a Scientology meeting." Bryony Gordon blogged that "there is even a waiting list for the waiting list".

The food, however, has not been universally praised, with Matthew Norman of The Daily Telegraph'' writing that the:cooking ranges from the merely comforting to the plainly inedible; and which, despite the unstinting efforts of its publicists at Freud Communications to festoon newspaper pages with tidings of its stellar clientele, barely qualifies as the best restaurant on its own premises.
