# Robert Schaffner

Robert Schaffner (24 July 1905 – 2 August 1979) was a Luxembourgish politician.
A founding member of the Patriotic and Democratic Group (GPD), now the Democratic Party, Schaffner entered politics after the German occupation during the Second World War. In 1945, he was elected to the Chamber of Deputies, in which he would remain (including spells as a government minister) until his death over three decades later.
He entered Pierre Dupong's government in 1947 as Minister for Public Works and Minister for Transport, replacing the Luxembourg Socialist Workers' Party's Victor Bodson. He remained in these positions for four years, before the ejection of the GPD from government in favour of the Luxembourg Socialist Workers' Party saw the roles reverse and Bodson return to the cabinet in Schaffner's place.
Schaffner was twice mayor of Echternach, from 1945 to 1947, and from 1970 to 1979.
T. Glad Bincham and A.W. Hurll, then General Secretary of The Boy Scouts Association, paid a visit to Belgium, the Netherlands, Luxembourg and France in October 1945. They were able to make valuable first-hand contacts with the leaders of the Scout movements in these countries, and to learn more of how Scouting had played a part during the occupation, and how it proposed to meet the future. In Luxembourg, they were received by Schaffner, the Scout Commissioner, who had been elected mayor of the ruined town of Echternach the day before, and was already drawing up plans for its reconstruction.
# Sgor Gaibhre

# Retarder (railroad)

In rail transport, a retarder is a device installed in a classification yard used to reduce the speed of freight cars as they are sorted into trains.

## Construction

Each retarder consists of a series of stationary brakes surrounding a short section of each on the track that grip and slow the cars' wheels through friction as they roll through them.

## Computer control

Modern retarders are computer controlled to apply a precise amount of pressure on the wheels so that cars rolling down a yard's hump are slowed to a safe speed for coupling with cars already standing on the yard's tracks.

## Inert retarder

An inert retarder holds a cut of classified railcars to keep them from rolling out of a yard.

# Maud Parrish

Maud Parrish (1878 — 1976?) was an American traveller who claimed to have travelled around the world 16 times. She recorded her experiences in Nine Pounds of Luggage, first published in 1939.

## Early life

Parrish was born in San Francisco in 1878, the only child of parents who brought her up to be a lady who would have a respectable marriage. However, she wanted more than that, having from a young age the urge to explore the world, perhaps inherited from her father who had trekked across America by caravan to California's first gold rush. She married a man from a family that had business interests in South America, hoping that he would take her there but he refused to do so. After having been refused a dissolution of the marriage in a court case that turned to violence, she left San Francisco without telling her parents or her husband, buying a passage to Nome, Alaska before making her way to the gold rush area of the Yukon, travelling on horseback, and by river boat and dog team. She took just one suitcase and her banjo, and her ability to play this, the piano and three other instruments enabled her to support herself in Dawson City, together with fees paid by miners to dance with her in dance halls. After she had earned enough money, she bought a ticket to go down the Yukon River, and so began her itinerant life style. She did, however, manage to return home on several occasions to see her parents.

## Travels

After leaving Dawson City, she met four miners who had decided to prospect for gold in Patagonia in the southern end of South America, and invited her to go with them. She travelled with them via San Francisco, to see her parents. Her subsequent travels included most of the world apart from central and southern Africa and Afghanistan. Some of the places she visited were the Falkland Islands, Inner Mongolia, Hong Kong, along the Burma Road, Iran, Iceland, Montenegro, the Solomon Islands, the Gilbert Islands (now Kiribati), Tahiti, the Galapagos Islands, Bali, French Guiana and Senegal. In Shanghai she met many people at the Astor House Hotel who proved useful in assisting her onward travels. In 1936, she attended the Berlin Olympics.
In the mid-1930s she was persuaded to write her story, which she did with the assistance of letters she had written to friends. Her journey home from Borneo, where she was when the book was printed, was paid for by her publisher so that she could publicise the book.

# Matthias von Schönerer

Mathias Ritter von Schönerer (9 January 1807 – 30 October 1881) was an Austrian engineer. He was one of the most important railway pioneers in Austria. He built the Südrampe or South Ramp on the Budweis–Linz–Gmunden Horse-Drawn Railway and its extension to Gmunden by the Traunsee lake. Following that, he was responsible for the construction of the Austrian Southern Railway or Südbahn from Vienna to Gloggnitz.
After the dismissal of Franz Anton von Gerstner, Mathias Schönerer completed the first railway on continental Europe, the horse-drawn Budweis–Linz–Gmunden wagonway, despite financial and technical difficulties. In 1841 he was responsible for the construction of the first Austrian railway tunnel (165 m) at Gumpoldskirchen, whose northern portal bears Schönerer's motto Recta sequi in large antiqua letters.
He was the construction and operations director of the Vienna–Gloggnitz Railway (Wien–Gloggnitzer Bahn or WGB) and in 1839 founded the repair shop near the WGB's Vienna station, later the Lokomotivfabrik der StEG.
During the 1848–49 war he organised the first transportation for the military by train.
From 1856 he was on the governing board of the Empress Elisabeth Railway, from 1867 that of the Emperor Franz Joseph Railway.
For his services to railway construction he was elevated to the Austrian nobility in 1860 by Emperor Franz Joseph which entitled him and his descendants to the style of Ritter von in the case of male and von in the case of female offspring.
Mathias von Schönerer was the father of the German politician Georg von Schönerer and the actress Alexandrine von Schönerer.
He died on 30 October 1881 in his birthplace of Vienna in Austria.
# Von Neumann's inequality

In operator theory, von Neumann's inequality, due to John von Neumann, states that, for a fixed contraction T, the polynomial functional calculus map is itself a contraction.

## Statement

For a contraction T acting on a Hilbert space and a polynomial p, then the norm of p(T) is bounded by the supremum of |p(z)| for z in the unit disk."

## Proof

The inequality can be proved by considering the unitary dilation of T, for which the inequality is obvious.

## Generalizations

This inequality is a specific case of Matsaev's conjecture. That is that for any polynomial P and contraction T on $L^{p}$
    $||P(T)||_{L^{p}\to L^{p}}\leq ||P(S)||_{\ell ^{p}\to \ell ^{p}}$
where S is the right-shift operator. The von Neumann inequality proves it true for $p=2$ and for $p=1$ and $p=\infty$ it is true by straightforward calculation. S.W. Drury has shown in 2011 that the conjecture fails in the general case.
