# James Gifford (Royal Navy officer)

James Gifford the younger (20 November 1768 – 20 August 1853) was a British Royal Navy rear admiral.

## Biography

Gifford was born at Halifax, Nova Scotia, on 20 November 1768. He was the son of James Gifford the elder. Having entered the navy in 1783, he served under the broad pennant of Sir Charles Douglas on the Halifax station. He afterwards served in the West Indies, Channel and Mediterranean, and during the occupation of Toulon, in the St. George flagship of Rear-admiral John Gell. In October 1793 he was promoted to be lieutenant, and shortly afterwards was appointed to the Lutine frigate, with Captain James Macnamara, in which he narrowly escaped capture by the French squadron under M. Richery, off Cadiz, on 7 October 1795. After serving in the Pompée with Captain Vashon, and the Prince and Prince George, flagships of Sir Charles Cotton, he was promoted to be commander on 7 May 1802. For a short time in 1803 he was acting captain of the Braave frigate; in 1804 was appointed to the command of the Speedy brig, which formed part of the squadron employed off Boulogne and Calais during that and the succeeding year. In 1808 he was appointed to the Sarpen, for service in the Baltic and North Sea, and in February 1812 to the Sheldrake, from which, on 12 August, he was advanced to post-rank. He had no further service afloat, and, following his father's example, devoted himself from this time to religious studies and labours in the cause of unitarianism. After the death of his father (1813), he seems to have lived for some time at Swansea, where he wrote ‘Remonstrance of a Unitarian, addressed to [Burgess] the Bishop of St. Davids’ (8vo, 1818), which won him a high place in the esteem of his brother sectarians, and quickly ran into a second edition (1820). Replies to this remonstrance were entitled ‘Unitarianism indefensible. A letter … to … James Gifford [by J. Garbett],’ London, 1818, 8vo, and ‘An Examination of the Remonstrance addressed to the Bishop of St. David's, with Answers to the Questions addressed to Trinitarians generally,’ London, 1822, 8vo. Gifford afterwards moved with his sister and mother to Jersey, where he lived in a very modest way, devoting the greater part of his small income to works of benevolence, and to furthering the cause of unitarianism. In 1845 he published as a pamphlet ‘Letter of a Unitarian to the Rev. S. Langston, minister of St. James's Church, Jersey;’ but his principal work lay in the silent and unpretending but effective devotion to the cause with which he had associated himself. In 1846 he became a rear-admiral on the retired list, but the promotion made no change in his life, beyond increasing his income and his ability to give. He was not married, and died at Mont Orgueil Cottage, near St. Helier, on 20 August 1853. His mother had already died, at the age of 94, in 1840; his sister, Juliana Elizabeth, who had lived with him, survived him a few years, and died 19 April 1858, aged 84.
# Leptospermum recurvum

Leptospermum recurvum is a species of shrub or tree that is native to Mount Kinabalu in Malaysian Borneo and to Sulawesi. It has pale, flaky bark, broadly elliptical to almost round leaves, white flowers about 12 mm (0.47 in) wide and fruit that tend to remain on the plant for a year or two.

## Description

Leptospermum recurvum is sometimes a prostrate shrub, sometimes a tree to 20 m (66 ft) or more in height. It has thin, pale, flaky bark and young stems that have a broad flange near the leaf bases. The leaves are broadly elliptical to egg-shaped or almost round with their edges strongly curved downwards, mostly 3–5 mm (0.12–0.20 in) long and 2–3 mm (0.079–0.118 in) wide, and lack a petiole. The upper surface of the leaves is mostly glossy and the lower surface usually silky-hairy at first. The flowers are white, about 12 mm (0.47 in) wide and arranged singly on short side shoots. There are broad reddish brown bracts at the base of the flower buds that mostly remain at the base of the open flowers. The floral cup is 2–3 mm (0.079–0.118 in) long, tapering to a short pedicel. The sepals are 1.5–2 mm (0.059–0.079 in) long and almost hemispherical, the petals are about 5 mm (0.20 in) long and the stamens about 2.5 mm (0.098 in) long. Flowering probably occurs in most months. The fruit is a capsule 6–7 mm (0.24–0.28 in) wide and that tends to remain on the plant for a few years.

## Taxonomy and naming

Leptospermum recurvum was first formally described in 1852 by Joseph Dalton Hooker in William Jackson Hooker's book, Icones Plantarum. The type specimens were collected from "Kina Balu" where the species was recorded as being "abundant, from 7,000–8,500 ft (2,100–2,600 m), whitening the top of the mountain".

## Distribution and habitat

Leptospermum recurvum grows in crevices between rocks at high elevations on Mount Kinabalu.
# Morse Auditorium

The Morse Auditorium, officially the Alfred L. Morse Auditorium, is a domed theater that was built as a Jewish synagogue, that is now owned by Boston University and used as an auditorium.
Built in 1906 as Temple Israel, the edifice was intended by the architect and congregation as a replica of Solomon's Temple. Boston University acquired the building in 1967 when the congregation moved. In 1971, the building was named in honor of BU benefactor Alfred L. Morse, who was a member of the BU Board of Trustees from 1968 to 1973. The building is currently used for large lectures, events, and talks.
The building is clad in white marble and today much of it is covered in vine. It was intended by the architect and congregation to be a replica of the Temple of Solomon.
The building is adjacent to the Physics Research Building (PRB), Metcalf Science Center (SCI), and the Boston University College of Communication (COM).
# Waverley, Western Australia

Waverley, or Siberia, is a ghost town located between Kalgoorlie and Leonora. It is on the Davyhurst to Ora Banda Road in the Goldfields-Esperance region of Western Australia and has formed part of Maduwongga territory.
Two prospectors Billy Frost and Bob Bonner discovered gold in the area in the late 1893, resulting in a gold rush to the area. The increasing population indicated a need for a townsite to be planned and lots were surveyed in 1898, which was initially to be named Siberia. The local progress association decided that the town should be named Waverley after a nearby mine. The townsite was gazetted as Waverley in 1898.
Some of the mines close to town include Siberia, Waverley, Mexico and the Pole leases.
In 1911 the Postmaster General raised concern about the duplication of town names in Australia, including Waverley. Alternative names such as Wongi (the name of a nearby soak) and Siberia. The locals preferred Siberia and the name was officially gazetted in 1914. The name comes from Siberia Tank, a water supply that is close to the town.
In 1924, two miners, Emery and MacLachlan, picked up on the continuation of a deep alluvial lead and obtained satisfactory results.
The last resident left town in 1954.
# Ski Upper Secondary School

Ski videregående skole is a school (high school, upper secondary school) in Ski, Norway. The school was founded in its present form in 1938, while the current building dates from 1968. It is situated in the city of Ski.
Pupils who want to start at the school, regularly need quite high grades, as it is a rather attractive place to study, given its lines of study, several good teachers and its central location, close to the city centre.
As of 2008, the school offers three main ways to study: music, dance and drama, physical education and regular education. None of the options are meant to give pupils an education that enables them to get right into work after finished graduation. Instead, the students are supposed to study at universities and similar facilities after Ski videregående skole.
# La Selle thrush

The La Selle thrush (Turdus swalesi) is a species of bird in the family Turdidae endemic to the Caribbean island of Hispaniola (split between the Dominican Republic and Haiti). A skulker of broadleaf and pine forests around 1300m, it is limited to a small and declining population in the inland Dominican Republic, as well as a relict population in Haiti.

## Etymology

Its name is derived from Pic la Selle, Haiti's highest point.

## Distribution

Turdus swalesi is found only on Hispaniola. Two subspecies are described: T. s. dodae has been recorded from the mountain ranges of the Cordillera Central and Sierra de Neiba in the Dominican Republic, and the La Visite National Park in Haiti, while the nominate subspecies T. s. swalesi is found in the Sierra de Baoruco as well as Massif de la Selle. Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical moist montane habitats.

## Conservation

The La Selle thrush is threatened by habitat loss.

## Behavior & call

Despite usually shy behavior, it often boldly approaches roads and other human artifacts. It only usually sings at dusk and dawn, when it is most active.

# Leptospermum riparium

Leptospermum riparium, commonly known as riverine tea-tree, is a species of straggling shrub that is endemic to Tasmania. It has flaky bark, crowded, lance-shaped leaves with the narrower end towards the base, relatively large white flowers and fruit that remain on the plant when mature. It grows on river banks in rainforest.

## Description

Leptospermum riparium is a straggly shrub that typically grows to a height of 3 m (9.8 ft) or more and has flaky bark. The leaves are mostly glabrous, lance-shaped with the narrower end towards the base, usually 10–25 mm (0.39–0.98 in) long, 2–4 mm (0.079–0.157 in) wide, the base tapering to a thin petiole. The flowers are white, 15–20 mm (0.59–0.79 in) wide and arranged on the ends of leafy side branches. There are reddish-brown bracts and bracteoles at the base of the flower buds but that usually fall off before the flower opens. The floral cup is about 4 mm (0.16 in) long with triangular sepals about 4 mm (0.16 in) long. The petals are 8 or 9 mm (0.31 or 0.35 in) long and the stamens about 4 m (13 ft) long. Flowering mainly occurs in January and the fruit is a capsule 6–8 mm (0.24–0.31 in) wide with the remains of the sepals attached and that remains on the plant at maturity.

## Taxonomy and naming

Leptospermum riparium was first formally described in 1974 by Tasmanian botanist Dennis Ivor Morris in Records of the Queen Victoria Museum, based on specimens he collected near the bridge over the Huon River in the Tahune Forest Park. The specific epithet (riparium) is from a Latin word meaning "inhabiting river banks".

## Distribution and habitat

# José Luis Cuevas Museum

The José Luis Cuevas Museum is located just off the Zócalo within the Historic center of Mexico City, in Mexico City, Mexico. The museum and Church of Santa Inés were built as parts of the Convent of Santa Inés (Agnes of Rome) complex. The museum is in the convent's colonial era residential hall.

## Museum

By the late 1970s, artist José Luis Cuevas had gathered a large collection of modern artworks by Latin American artists, with the aim of establishing a museum in his name. The collection was kept in the storage facilities of the Carrillo Gil Museum as Cuevas looked for a suitable location for the collection. Having been born in the historic Centro district of Mexico City, Cuevas wanted the museum to be located there.
After acquiring the historic Santa Inés Convent building in 1983, and relocating its residents, the adaptive reuse project began. Cuevas, along with government agencies and private supporters set to restore the building and perform archeological work. It revealed many of the much older construction elements of the convent. Restoration work was completed in 1988.
While it was primarily restored to its colonial era appearance, Cuevas had the convent's courtyard roofed with a plastic dome to have a contrary and modern element. The complex was repaired under the patronage of the Marquis of La Cadena. The entrance of the museum is located at 13 Academia Street, around the corner from the Santa Inés Church. The courtyard's patio is dominated by a tall bronze sculpture named “La Giganta” (The Female Giant). Cuevas created this site specific sculpture for this space. The statue is 8 metres (26 ft) tall and weighs 8 tons.
The José Luis Cuevas Museum opened in July 1992.

### Collections

The principal exhibition rooms contain artworks by Cuevas, including a room dedicated to works by him and his wife artist Bertha Cuevas, and the 'Pablo Picasso room' displaying his drawings.
The museum's collection also includes many artworks by 19th and 20th century Mexican artists, including: Francisco Toledo, Juan Soriano, Vicente Rojo Almazán, Manuel Felguérez, Arnold Belkin, Gabriel Macotela. In addition it has works by international modern artists, including Roberto Matta, Fernando de Szys-Varo, Leonora Carrington and Remedios Varo.
# Iase Tushi

Iase Tushi (Georgian: იასე თუში) was a Georgian writer who worked and lived in Safavid Iran. He is known for his polemical poem Sametsniero ("an enquiry"; lit. "scientific"), an illuminated work distinguished by one of the earliest examples of a Georgian–Persian dictionary, and is "the earliest Georgian manuscript so far discovered in Iran".
In his Sametsniero, Tushi criticized Christianity from a Shia Islam perspective, heralded Shia Islam in general (which he refers to "as a complete and perfect faith"), and praised then incumbent Safavid king (shah) Abbas I (r. 1588–1629). Author Khatuna Baindurashvili notes that the Sametsniero is "one of the most intriguing texts from the Georgian Renaissance period" and that the "use of Georgian poetry to criticise Christianity from the standpoint of Shia Islam" highlighted the complexity of Georgian–Safavid relations.

## Biography

Little is known about Tushi's early life except that he was born in Tusheti in the second half of the 16th century and was well-educated by the standards of his time, being well-acquainted with both secular and religious literature. In the early 17th century, he converted to Islam sometime after arriving in Iran proper, where he would spend the remainder of his life, working in the Safavid royal capital, Isfahan.

## Work

The Sametsniero is the earliest known example of Georgian writing to have been unearthed in Iran. According to Baindurashvili, it was written in the 1620s during the reign of king Abbas I (1588–1629), but not after as the text refers to Abbas I as being alive. It consists of 15 chapters, 280 verses, an appendix containing one of the earliest examples of a Georgian–Persian dictionary, and 40 pages of "beautifully illuminated text". The final part of the manuscript was irrecoverably damaged.
In his poem, Tushi discussed biblical stories and criticised Christianity from a Qoranic, particularly a Shi'ite, perspective. Tushi stated in his work that he finds "the doctrine of God in three hypostates to be theologically untenable and unacceptable, and he rejects Jesus as Son of God, identifying him instead, in line with Islamic teaching, as one of the great prophets who came before Mohammad, and thus referring to him as Holy Prophet Jesus". His assertion rejected the notion that God could assume an incarnate form.
Tushi consistently praised the Islamic prophet Mohammad and Ali throughout the work. In line with Shia principles, Tushi considered the Twelve Imams of Twelver Shia Islam to be the disciples of Mohammad and compared them to Twelve Apostles of Jesus's. Tushi also praised Abbas I throughout the work. In the seventh chapter of the work, Tushi referred to Shia Islam, in particular, "as a complete and perfect faith". He died in Isfahan, possibly in the second half of the 17th century.
# Porchabella Glacier
