# Statue of Thomas Carlyle

A statue of Thomas Carlyle by Joseph Edgar Boehm stands in Chelsea Embankment Gardens in London. Erected in 1881 and unveiled in 1882, it stands close to 24 Cheyne Row where Carlyle lived for the last 47 years of his life. The statue became a Grade II listed building on 15 April 1969.

## History
### Production & reception

Boehm had executed a statuette in plaster of Carlyle in April 1874 at the request of Lady Harriet Mary Montagu. Carlyle liked it and decided to sit for Boehm in the beginning of 1875, in order to produce a large marble version which now resides in the National Galleries of Scotland. At the first sitting, Carlyle announced brusquely, "storming in at the door in the guise of one of his own northern gales": "I'll give you twenty-two minutes to make what you can of me." When Boehm punctually finished working, Carlyle was delighted enough to give him another twenty-two minutes, subsequently sitting often, writing: "He seems to me by far the cleverest Sculptor or Artist I have ever seen." Boehm also produced a cast of Carlyle's hands and a bust. John Tyndall spoke at the unveiling of the bronze in 1882. The marble was presented by Archibald Primrose, 5th Earl of Rosebery in 1916.
Boehm said it was "the best thing I ever did". James Anthony Froude considered it "as satisfactory a likeness in face and figure as could be rendered in sculpture". John Ruskin described it as "a noble piece of portraiture" with "high and harmonious measures in which it seems to me to express the mind and features of my dear Master." He continued:
   here is a piece of vital and essential sculpture; the result of sincere skill spent carefully on an object worthy its care; motive and method alike right; no pains spared, and none wasted. And any spectator of sensitiveness will find that, broadly speaking, all the sculpture round seems dead and heavy in comparison, after he has looked long at this.
James Caw later called it "one of the most virile and remarkable of modern portrait-statues."

### Replica

A replica of the bronze by MacDonald and Creswick, itself a Category B listed building, was given to Ecclefechan, Carlyle's place of birth and burial, by Alexander Carlyle, husband of Mary Carlyle Aitken, the writer's niece, and unveiled on 3 September 1929 by the writer's granddaughter Betty Carlyle in the presence of 7,000 spectators. Sir James Crichton-Browne delivered an address, transcribed in the 11 October 1929 issue of The Advertiser. He referred to Carlyle as not merely "a great master of literature" but "our supreme historian", "an earnest social reformer", and, "in short, a man of genius of the colossal type".

# Matilda (Normanby novel)

Matilda is an 1825 novel by the British writer and politician Lord Normanby, originally published in two volumes. It was part of the emerging, popular genre of silver fork novels that focused on the fashionable British upper classes in the later Regency era, and was his first published work. He followed it with a second silver fork novel, the political Yes and No in 1828.
Lady Holland said "it is for the first fifty pages full of wit and observation on manners and society, and then becomes commonplace and like any trashy, sentimental novel".

## Synopsis

Matilda Deleval and Augustus Arlingford fall in love. However, her guardian prevents them from meeting as Arlingford is a second son and therefore does not stand to inherit his family's wealth. While Augustus is in Europe, the newspaper John Bull scurrilously reports he has begun living with an Italian woman. Feeling betrayed, Matilda is persuaded by her guardian to marry a wealthy self-made merchant from Manchester who has recently acquired a baronetcy. After the unexpected death of his wastrel brother Arlingford has inherited his brother's title and money, and returns to England only to find Matilda now married. Later Matilda's husband encourages her to try and persuade Augustus to allow a planned railway to be built across his estate. Witnessing her abusive treatment by her husband, Augustus takes her away from him but their romance still ends tragically. Augustus then goes to fight for the Greeks in their War of Independence.

# Vancouver Southsiders

The Vancouver Southsiders is an independent supporters group for Vancouver Whitecaps FC of Major League Soccer. The group was created in 1999 by soccer fans from Vancouver and its greater metropolitan area to support the former Vancouver Whitecaps FC of the D2 Pro League. The name of the group alludes to the south side of Swangard Stadium, where the supporters first started to congregate.

## History

The group began in 1999 when fans of the Vancouver 86ers began congregating in the pitch-level beer garden behind the goal at the south end of Swangard Stadium. They originally called themselves "The Carlsberg Crew" in reference to the sponsor of Swangard's beer garden, Carlsberg Beer. The following season, the group renamed itself as the "Canterbury Chorus" following an off-season change to the team's beer sponsor. The group was finally renamed to "The Southsiders" to avoid the need to change names every time the sponsor changed.
In 2004, the Southsiders worked with the supporters' groups of Portland and Seattle to establish the Cascadia Cup. The cup is awarded to the team that does the best in the season series between the three in the Pacific Northwest. John Knox, then president of the Southsiders, said that the Cup is "hugely important".
The Southsiders' relationship with team ownership has not always been positive. In 2003, the Southsiders felt marginalized by the front office and began depositing empty beer cups onto the field. The relationship improved as a dialog was opened. The front office and group continued to benefit from each other when Vancouver received an MLS expansion team. Images of the Southsiders are featured prominently in Whitecaps' marketing campaigns. The group's board was invited to the invite-only launch of the Whitecaps' MLS kits and logo.
The Whitecaps' expansion into MLS has also led to an increase in membership; it had grown from about 40 paying members to 100 in July 2010. At the group's annual general meeting, held in December 2010, paid membership was tabulated at just shy of 200 members. Just a year later, the membership base was over 700 strong. John Knox, the previous president of the Southsiders, believes there is no reason why the Southsiders cannot outdo the Seattle Sounders' Emerald City Supporters.
Now that the Whitecaps are playing at BC Place stadium, the Southsiders can be found in the southeast corner (sections 249–254).

## Culture

The Southsiders originated as a group of fans that enjoyed a European-style experience over the traditional family-friendly atmosphere during matches. They have been described as a "rabid supporters group".
Along with adding colour and atmosphere, the group sings various chants during matches. Their theme song is titled "Boundary Road" sung to the tune of John Denver's "Take Me Home, Country Roads", it references Swangard Stadium's location on Boundary Road in Burnaby, British Columbia. The Southsiders' version is as follows:
   Boundary Road, take me home, To the place where I belong. Vancouver, pretty mama, Take me home, Boundary road.
# Schleptruper Egge

The Schleptruper Egge is a hill, 148 m high, in the Bramsche parish of Schleptrup and is part of the Wiehen Hills. To the north is the bog of Großes Moor at a height of about 47 m above sea level (NHN), the Mittelland Canal built in the 20th century and the Bramsche parish of Kalkriese.

# Scott Lithgow

Scott Lithgow, Limited was a Scottish shipbuilding company.

## History

The company was formed in 1967 by the merger of Scotts Shipbuilding and Engineering Company and Lithgows. Scott Lithgow was based in Port Glasgow and Greenock on the lower Clyde in Scotland. Scott Lithgow was nationalised and subsumed into British Shipbuilders in 1977. Reorganisation of Scott Lithgow in 1981 saw all the assets of its subsidiary companies transferred under the direct operational control of Scott Lithgow.
From 1980, the company became the centre of British Shipbuilders’ Offshore Division and it was hoped that the offshore semi-submersible market would lead the yard back to profitability. However the Ocean Alliance semi-submersible construction was a disastrous contract for the company, with the rig eventually delivered four years late and at a loss of over £200 million.
In 1984 Trafalgar House bought the company and the Company ceased to trade in 1993.

# John Burnaby (diplomat)

John Burnaby (1701–1774) was a British diplomat. He was Resident minister to the Swiss cantons.

## Biography

Burnaby was the son of John Burnaby, of Kensington, and his wife Clara Wood. His brother was Sir William Burnaby, 1st Baronet. He served as secretary to James Waldegrave, 1st Earl Waldegrave as Ambassador to Austria and then in France. He was recalled from Stockholm in 1741 and sent to Bern in 1743, where he served as Resident minister to the Swiss cantons until 1750. The ferry Reichenbach-Engehalbinsel was established for Burnaby, who had rented Reichenbach Castle in Zollikofen as his summer residence in 1743. In December 1749, the Bernese authorities presented Burnaby with a golden chain with a Sechzehnerpfennig (coin) as a thank you for his services.
Burnaby's daughter Maria had a relationship with the Bernese cloth merchant Daniel Zeerleder (1731-1793). They had a son together, Johann Daniel Zeerleder (1765-1774).
In a memorandum with the subject Traduction des Loix de Berne, Burnaby mentions that he had procured an enclosed manuscript with great difficulty and that it would be useful to have it translated for future Ministers. The manuscript had never appeared in print, did not yet exist as a copy in England and could not be acquired in Bern. The manuscript mentioned is either a copy of the Rotes Buch or the Burgerspunkten. Both were the fundamental laws of the Republic of Bern and never appeared in print during the Ancien Régime.
Burnaby died in September 1774.
