Голка Клеопатри (Лондон)

Голка Клеопатри (англ. Cleopatra's Needle) — давньоєгипетський обеліск в оточенні двох сфінксів в історичному центрі Лондона, на набережній Вікторії. Являє собою моноліт з граніту заввишки 18 метрів і вагою 186 тонн. Вивезений британцями з Олександрії в 1877 році. Вирізаний на каменоломнях Асуан а в середині II тисячоліття до н. е. На обеліску нанесені символи фараона Тутмоса III (пізніше були додані імена Рамзеса II і Клеопатри). Близько 1475 року до н. е. вниз по Нілу перевезений в Геліополь. Імовірно за часів римського імператора Августа обеліск був перевезений в Олександрію, де він простояв століття. До початку XIX століття пам'ятник вже був перекинутий і лежав у піску. Подарований британцям правителем Єгипту Мухаммедом Алі в розпал єгиптоманії, в 1819 році, в ознаменування перемоги віце-адмірала Нельсона в битві при Абуквре і генерала Еберкромбі при Олександрії в 1801 році. Залишався в Олександрії до 1877 року, коли хірург сер Еразмус Вільсон виділив власні кошти на його транспортування до столиці Великої Британії. Обеліск уклали в залізний циліндр — спеціально сконструйоване судно «Клеопатра», що представляє із себе по суті понтон з містком для екіпажу, і у вересні 1877 року відбуксирували пароплавом «Ольга». Під час плавання в Біскайській затоці судно потрапило в шторм, в результаті якого 6 моряків з «Ольги» загинули, а «Клеопатра» була кинута. Чотирма днями пізніше пароплав Fitzmaurice, що йде з Глазго, виявив дрейфуючу «Клеопатру». 21 січня 1878 року обеліск був доставлений в Лондон. Спочатку його планувалося встановити перед будівлею британського парламенту. 12 вересня 1878 він був встановлений на набережній Вікторії. По боках встановлені скульптури сфінксів, відлиті з бронзи і звернені обличчям до обеліска.

Range Farm Fields

Range Farm Fields (grid reference SO850130) is a 12.8-hectare (32-acre) biological Site of Special Scientific Interest in Gloucestershire, near to Gloucester City, notified in 1996. Location The site lies in the Cotswold Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and is in the Cotswold Hills Environmentally Sensitive Area (ESA). The geology is from the Jurassic time period which means it includes Lias Clay, silt, limestone and old landslip. The fields face north-west and are on a slope. There are four separate pastures with hedgerows. There is a relatively small area of bracken and woodland and it includes flushes and scrub areas. Habitat and flora The site is a large flower-rich unimproved grassland area. Use and management has reduced the amount of this type of habitat nationally. The site is exceptional because of its size and the variations in the neutral grassland (acid to calcareous). Three grassland types are thus present – acidic, neutral and calcareous. The unimproved grassland includes crested dog's-tail and common knapweed. There is heath-grass, meadow vetchling, lady's bedstraw. A large number of Cotswold sites was surveyed and Range Farm Fields was found to be the most diverse and to contain the three grassland types. Herbs include oxeye daisy, devil's-bit scabious, yellow rattle and dyer's greenweed. One particular field has a large amount of great burnet. The latter is more common in flood meadows. Corky-fruited water-dropwort is also recorded. Springs present encourage the species which flourish in such areas and these include sharp-flowered rush, marsh marigold, ragged robin, common spotted orchid and bird's-foot trefoil. The site has significant wildlife value because of its many features such as mixed hedgerows, scrub and woodland as well as the grassland. Hedgerows are mainly hawthorn, bramble and field rose. The woodland is mainly ash and oak with a hazel understorey.

Ranton Abbey

Ranton Abbey or Ranton Priory was an Augustinian Priory in Ranton, Staffordshire, England, built c.1150 by Robert fitz Noel of Ellenhall. The priory flourished in the 13th century as a subordinate house to Haughmond Abbey (near Shrewsbury). Ranton was dissolved by the Suppression of Religious Houses Act 1535 for dissolving the lesser monasteries. Only the 14th–15th century tower and part of the south wall remain, although the cloisters and other parts are known to have still been standing in 1663. Many important personages were buried in the abbey including Sir Thomas Harcourt, Knt., of Stanton Harcourt, who died 12 April 1417. The ruins of Abbey House stand adjacent. Accord to Michael Raven (2004), Ranton Abbey: "was founded by Robert and Celestia Noel of Ellenhall about 1150 for Augustinian canons from Haughmond. In 1820 Thomas, 1st Earl of Lichfield, built a large house, a hunting lodge or weekend retreat, adjacent to the abbey...all that remains of the abbey is the large imposing tower (of the 15th century) and a little of the nave wall with a Norman doorway decorated with roll moulding. The house is now in ruins as it was accidentally burned down in 1942, during the Second World War, when troops of Queen Wilhelmina's bodyguard were quartered here." According to William White in his 1851 History, Gazetteer and Directory of Staffordshire: "Ranton, or Ronton, is a small scattered village, five miles (8 km) W of Stafford, comprising within its parish the scattered hamlets of Extolls, Long Compton, Park Nook, and including 320 inhabitants, and about 2670 acres of land, belonging chiefly to the Earl of Lichfield, and Francis Eld, Esq, and the former is lord of the manor, which, at the time of the Norman Conquest, was held by Goderick, a Saxon nobleman, and afterwards by the Noels and Harcourts. Swynfen Jones, Esq, and a few smaller owners have estates in the parish. About a mile W of the village is Ranton Abbey, an extra parochial liberty of 700 acres belonging to the Earl of Lichfield. The ancient abbey was founded by Robert Fitz-Noel, in the reign of Henry II, for regular canons of the order of St Augustine. Considerable remains of the abbey are still standing, including a lofty well-built tower, and the outer walls of the church. The abbey liberty contains 28 inhabitants and the Abbey House which is the seat of ED Moore, Esq."

Raphael Park

Raphael Park (pronounced "Ray-full") is a public park in Gidea Park, Romford, in the London Borough of Havering, United Kingdom. It is one of a series of parks stretching northwards from the railway line between Romford and Gidea Park. The southern entrance to Raphael Park is on Main Road, formerly called Hare Street, and the northern entrance is just south of the A12 Eastern Avenue. The western boundary of the park follows the line of Black's Brook, a small stream that was dammed where the park meets Main Road to form a lake 12–20 ft deep and called Black's Canal, this being done before the park was created. The dam itself is just inside the park next to the 18th century bridge which carries Main Road and known as Black's Bridge. The park itself is part of the parkland that once surrounded Gidea Hall. Raphael Park contains two ancient Pedunculate Oaks recorded by the Woodland Trust. The park is named after Sir Herbert Raphael MP, who gave it to Romford Urban District in 1904. In addition to the lake, which is used for angling, there are several amenities provided within the park. In the southern part of the park is a bandstand, and then near the end of the lake is a rockery which is used by the Romford Summer Theatre. Beyond this point the park widens to the east, and there are sports pitches (football in winter and cricket in summer) and sunken tennis courts, the sunken nature of which is reputed to be the result of sand having been dug there for use in construction of the surrounding houses. To the north of the tennis courts is a children's play area which was remodelled in 2009, the circular play area plus tennis courts having previously been filled with water and known as the "Spoon Pond". Apart from these the park consists of parkland, mature woodland and grassland. The park also contains a statue of the children's character Percy the Park Keeper, created by author and illustrator Nick Butterworth, the inspiration for whom was said to have come from a real life park-keeper in Raphael Park.

Raspberry Pi Foundation

De Raspberry Pi Foundation is een Britse stichting opgericht in 2009 om de studie van elementaire informatica op scholen te promoten, en is verantwoordelijk voor de ontwikkeling van de Raspberry Pi-computers. Oprichting De Raspberry Pi Foundation is een stichting die is geregistreerd bij de Charity Commission for England en Wales. De raad van toezicht werd samengesteld in 2008 en de Raspberry Pi Foundation werd opgericht als een geregistreerde stichting in mei 2009 in Caldecote, Engeland. In 2016 verhuisde The Foundation haar hoofdkantoor naar Station Road, Cambridge. De Stichting wordt ondersteund door de University of Cambridge Computer Laboratory en Broadcom. Het doel is om "de studie van informatica en aanverwante onderwerpen te promoten, vooral op schoolniveau, en om het plezier terug te brengen in het leren van werken met computers." Mede-oprichter van het project Eben Upton is een voormalig academicus, in dienst bij Broadcom als system-on-a-chip architect en associate technical director. Componenten, zij het in kleine aantallen, konden vanwege de liefdadigheidsstatus van de organisatie bij leveranciers worden betrokken. Toen de afname van het aantal en de vaardigheden van studenten die voor computerwetenschappen solliciteerden een punt van zorg werd voor een team met onder meer Eben Upton, Rob Mullins, Jack Lang en Alan Mycroft van het computerlaboratorium van de Universiteit van Cambridge in 2006, bedachten zij dat er behoefte zou kunnen zijn aan kleine en betaalbare computers. Er werden verschillende versies van de vroege Raspberry Pi-prototypes ontworpen, maar deze waren beperkt door de hoge kosten en de trage processors voor mobiele apparaten. In 2008 begon het team een samenwerking met Pete Lomas, MD van Norcott Technologies en David Braben, de co-auteur van de baanbrekende BBC Micro-game Elite, en vormde de Raspberry Pi Foundation. Drie jaar later werd de Raspberry Pi Model B geboren en binnen twee jaar waren er meer dan twee miljoen exemplaren van verkocht. Producten Externe link Officiële website

Raven’s Ait

Raven’s Ait ist ein Werder (engl. Ait) in der Themse zwischen Surbiton und Hampton Court Park im Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames, London, England flussaufwärts des Teddington Lock im nicht von den Gezeiten beeinflussten Teil des Flusses. Geschichte Vor 1911 war die Insel der Sitz des 1858 gegründeten Kingston Rowing Club, der heute in den Canbury Gardens beheimatet ist. Lange Zeit war die Insel im Besitz oder gepachtet von der The Navy League, einer gemeinnützigen Organisation, die das Sea Cadet Corps und das Girls’ Nautical Training Corps betrieb. Raven’s Ait war der Standort der TS Neptun, bis sie durch die TS Royalist eine kleine Brigg ersetzt wurde. 1971 wurden die damaligen Gebäude bis auf das Haus des Superintendenten der Sea Cadet's abgerissen und durch die heutigen Gebäude ersetzt, die für Konferenzen und Feiern genutzt werden. In den 1980er Jahren nutzte das Inner London Education Centre die Einrichtungen als Trainingszentrum für Sozialarbeiter und Wassersporttrainingszentrum. Die Ravens Ait Hall Management Company Ltd meldete 2008 Insolvenz an und wurde aufgelöst. Anfang 2009 wurde die Insel besetzt und erklärt man wolle die Insel in ein umweltfreundliches Konferenzzentrum umwandeln. Die Besetzer hielten auch eine weithin öffentlich bekanntgemachte Konferenz während ihrer Besetzung ab. Im März 2009 wurde eine Räumungsklage gegen die Besetzer eingereicht. Die Räumung erfolgte am 1. Mai 2009. Nach Berichten in der örtlichen Presse sollten die Besetzer genug Strom für 45 Häuser verbraucht haben, einen Vorwurf, den diese bestritten und darauf hinwiesen, dass die vorherigen Nutzer zahlreiche Geräte wie Kühlschränke nicht abgestellt hätten. Nutzung als Wassersportzentrum Raven's Ait ist durch die Royal Yachting Association und die British Canoe Union als Trainingsstätte für ihre jeweiligen Bereiche anerkannt. Die Insel war auch zeitweise ein Liegeplatz des Katamarans Sparkle, der von Angus Primrose für Menschen mit eingeschränkten körperlichen Fähigkeiten entworfen wurde.
