# Underwater Demolition Badge

The Underwater Demolition Badge is an obsolete badge of the United States Navy which was first created during the Second World War. The Underwater Demolition Badge was established as a decoration for members of Navy Underwater Demolition Teams (UDTs) and is considered a predecessor decoration to the modern day Special Warfare Badge.
The Underwater Demolition Badge was originally worn as a patch on the upper sleeve of a Navy uniform. The badge was awarded to the members of the U.S. Navy Underwater Demolition Teams and became a breast badge in the 1950s. As Underwater Demolition Teams began to be phased into the Navy SEALs, the Underwater Demolition Badge was used as a template for the new SEAL Badge.
During the Vietnam War, the Underwater Demolition Badge was issued side by side with the Special Warfare Badge (SEAL Badge). By 1975, the Underwater Demolition Badge had been declared obsolete and was no longer issued for uniform wear. Service members who had previously held the Underwater Demolition Badge could apply for the award of the SEAL Badge in lieu of the obsolete decoration.
The Underwater Demolition Badge appears as a crossed anchor, trident and pistol insignia. The decoration is identical to the Special Warfare Badge with the exception of the eagle upon which the SEAL badge is based.
In 2006 the Navy created the Special Warfare Operator rating, which consists entirely of SEALs. The rating's specialty mark is identical to the Underwater Demolition badge's original design but in silver. The Navy Warrant Officer device for Special Warfare Technician is also this same design in gold.

# Redline 25

The Redline 25, sometimes called the C&C 25 Redline, is a Canadian sailboat, that was designed by C&C Design and first built in 1969.
C&C also built an unrelated design with a similar name, the C&C 25.

## Production

The boat was built by Bruckman Manufacturing in Canada starting in 1969. Bruckman became part of C&C Yachts that same year and C&C continued to produce the boat. The design is now out of production.

## Design

The Redline 25 is a small recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fiberglass, with wood trim. It has a masthead sloop rig, a transom-hung rudder and a small fixed fin keel, with a retractable centreboard. The boat has a draft of 5.00 ft (1.52 m) with the centreboard down and 2.50 ft (0.76 m) with the centreboard retracted. The boat displaces 4,115 lb (1,867 kg) and carries 1,915 lb (869 kg) of ballast.
The boat is normally fitted with an outboard motor.
The boat has a PHRF racing average handicap of 237 with a high of 237 and low of 240. It has a hull speed of 6.07 kn (11.24 km/h).
# Swashplate

A swashplate, also known as slant disk, is a mechanical engineering device used to translate the motion of a rotating shaft into reciprocating motion, or vice versa. The working principle is similar to crankshaft, Scotch yoke, or wobble, nutator, and Z-crank drives in engine designs. It was originally invented to replace a crankshaft, and is one of the most popular concepts used in crankless engines. It was invented by Anthony Michell in 1917.

## Construction

A swashplate consists of a disk attached to a shaft. If the disk were aligned perpendicular to the shaft, then rotating the shaft would merely turn the disk with no reciprocating (or swashplate) effect. But instead the disk is mounted at an oblique angle, which causes its edge to appear to describe a path that oscillates along the shaft's length as observed from a non-rotating point of view away from the shaft. The greater the disk's angle to the shaft, the more pronounced is this apparent linear motion. The apparent linear motion can be turned into an actual linear motion by means of a follower that does not turn with the swashplate but presses against one of the disk's two surfaces near its circumference. The device has many similarities to the cam.

## Uses

Swashplates can be used in an axial engine in place of a crankshaft to translate the motion of a piston into rotary motion. Such engines are the only variation of the cam engine to have any success. Internal combustion engines and Stirling engines have been built using this mechanism. Duke Engines has been working on such a platform since 1993.
The axial piston pump drives a series of pistons aligned parallel with a shaft through a swashplate to pump a fluid. A common example of a swashplate application in a fluid pump is the compressor of a present-day automobile air conditioning system. By varying the angle of the swashplate, the pistons' stroke (and, therefore, the compressor's cooling capacity) can be dynamically adjusted.
A helicopter swashplate is a pair of plates, one rotating and one fixed, that are centered on the main rotor shaft. The rotating plate is linked to the rotor head, and the fixed plate is linked to the operator controls. Displacement of the alignment of the fixed plate is transferred to the rotating plate, where it becomes reciprocal motion of the rotor blade linkages. This type of differential pitch control, known as cyclic pitch, allows the helicopter rotor to provide selective lift in any direction. The swashplate can also transfer a combined static pitch increase to all rotor blades, which is known as collective pitch.
Nutating flowmeters and pumps have similar motions to the wobble of a swashplate, but do not necessarily transform the motion to a reciprocating motion at any time.
Active electronically scanned array (AESA) radars are flat plates that can scan up to sixty degrees in any direction from directly ahead of them. By mounting an AESA radar on a swashplate, the swashplate angle is added to the electronic scan angle. The typical swashplate angle chosen for this application is 40 degrees, enabling the radar to scan a total angle of 200 degrees out of 360.

# Ignatius van der Beken

Ignatius van der Beken (11 December 1689, Antwerp - 7 June 1774, Antwerp), was a Flemish genre, portrait and still life painter. He was a court painter of Johann Wilhelm, Elector Palatine.

## Life

He became an apprentice in the Guild of St. Luke of Antwerp in the Guild year 1700–1701 as a pupil of Willem van Herp the Younger. He resided in Düsseldorf from 1712 to 1716 where he was a court painter of Johann Wilhelm, Elector Palatine.
He returned to Antwerp where he registered again as a master in the Guild of St. Luke in the guild year 1716–1717. Between 1722 and 1749 he served seven times as the dean of the Guild. He is recorded in 1733 in Mainz as he portrayed the Prince-Bishop and Elector Philipp Karl von Eltz-Kempenich and other dignitaries. He was married to Geertrudis Elisabeth Meusses.
He was the master of Clemens-Augustinus Everaerts and Guiglielmus Vasel.

## Work

Van der Beken painted mainly genre scenes and merry companies as well as still lifes. He is also documented as having worked as a portrait painter but these works have been lost. He is known for several genre groups (four examples in the National Gallery of Denmark, Copenhagen). These are executed in a limited palette and muted colors.
Flower still lifes by him are close in style to that of Jan Baptist Bosschaert.
# Elgin Professional Building

The Elgin Professional Building is a historic high-rise building constructed in 1928 at 164 Division Street in downtown Elgin, Illinois. The building is 8 stories, at 96 feet tall, and functions primarily as an office building, housing the Elgin Art Showcase on the top floor since 2007. The building is also the office of Illinois State Senator Cristina Castro, and Illinois State Representative Anna Moeller. Built in the Gothic Revival style, it and the Elgin Tower Building have been centerpieces in the skyline of downtown Elgin for many years.

## History

In the early 20th century, Elgin was experiencing a vibrant economy and massive population growth. The Elgin National Watch Company was the largest domestic watch producer, and employed many. The Elgin Sweeper Company was an early pioneer of street sweepers, and the city had a booming dairy industry. All this business attracted the attention of the Professional Building Corporation, which decided Elgin needed a new office building. The building was constructed in the Gothic Revival style, and was the tallest building in the city, not to mention the most glamorous. It featured a soaring two story Gothic lobby, and an 8th floor ballroom which had commanding views of the city and a must go for socialites in the city. Unfortunately, like much of the country, Elgin was ravaged by the Great Depression, and the Professional Building lost many a tenant. However, it continued on as normal and today houses a variety of services, from medical professionals to law offices.

### Renovations

In 2003, renovations were considered in a city-wide attempt to revitalize the downtown. It was proposed that an investment company would convert the offices into residential units, and the top floor ballroom into a restaurant, but this never occurred, and the building is still composed of offices.
# Robert Perceval Graves

Robert Perceval Graves (9 March 1810 in Dublin – 5 October 1893 in Dublin) was an Irish biographer and clergyman, brother of both mathematician and bishop Charles Graves and jurist and mathematician John T. Graves. He was a brother-in-law of the German historian Leopold von Ranke who was married to his sister Helena Clarissa, and an uncle of the poet Alfred Perceval Graves. Graves is best known for his three-volume biography of W. R. Hamilton.

## Life and career

Robert Perceval Graves was born in Dublin. He was educated in classics at Trinity College Dublin (TCD), where he became a Scholar in 1830, got a BA in 1832 (Gold Medal) and an MA in 1837.
From 1833 to 1864 he worked as a clergyman in the Lake District in England, where he became friends with Wordsworth and Hartley Coleridge. On 31 May 1842 he married Helena Hutchins Bellasis (1809-1888), daughter of George Hutchins Bellasis (1778-1822), Captain in H.M. 19th Regt. of Light Dragoons, and Charlotte Maude (1778-1857), of Holly Hill, Windermere. He spent the last thirty years of his life back in Dublin, where he was sub-dean of the Chapel Royal, and taught at Alexandra College and also served as Vice Warden there. He was an early proponent of women being allowed access to the highest echelons of education, and in 1892 he published the pamphlet "Suggestions on the Subject of University Degrees for Women" in which he urged that his alma mater TCD should admit female students (which they finally did in 1904).
R. P. Graves is best remembered for his wide-ranging three volume Life of Sir William Rowan Hamilton, published in 1882, 1885, 1889. TCD recognised his accomplishment by awarding him an honorary doctorate (LLD) in 1890.
Graves died on 5 October 1893, and was interred at Mount Jerome, Dublin, on 9 October following a service at the Chapel Royal, Dublin.

## About the book

Migritude focuses on how black African women and diasporic groups are positioned and repositioned in the language of global concern. By examining the subaltern discourse, this piece rethinks what is deemed "home" in the queer imaginary. To represent the subaltern, whose concerns are exemplified by the perpetuation of institutional violence upon their bodies, this paper critiques heteronormativity.

# Mid Wynd International Investment Trust

The Mid Wynd International Investment Trust (LSE: MWY) is a publicly-traded investment trust listed on the London Stock Exchange. Since 1 October 2023, The trust has been managed by Lazard Asset Management.

## History

The company can trace its origins back to 1797. David Scott, a weaver from Hawkhill near Dundee, bought a property on Mid Wynd in Dundee (Wynd meaning a narrow street) in order to establish a flax warping mill and hand weaving shed. For the next 150 years, the firm evolved, aided by colonialism, world-wide expansion and two world wars.
In 1949, following unwelcome recommendations from a Government-sponsored Jute Working Party Report, the company reorganised itself. The Mid Wynd Holding Co. Ltd. was established as the group parent company of a number of subsidiaries, including James Scott & Sons Ltd., the producing company, and Dura (Investments) Co. Ltd. which was to hold the financial reserves.

## Merger

Following a merger in 1965 of James Scott & Sons Ltd., Thomas Boag & Co. Ltd., and Robertson Industrial Textiles Ltd., Mid Wynd was left with Dura (Investments) Co. Ltd. and various subsidiaries. Over the next fifteen years, the company disposed of all its remaining assets with the exception of Dura (Investments).
Hampered by capital gains tax and a restricted market for its shares, in 1981 the company decided to seek a public quotation and to transform itself into an investment trust. Holdings of Dura (Investments) were to be transferred to Mid Wynd. The new trust would invest principally in smaller and less well-known growth companies traded in overseas stock-markets. To reflect this, the name of the company was changed to Mid Wynd International Investment Trust PLC. On 25 September 1981, shareholders approved the changes at a general meeting. In October of the same year, shares of the new company were introduced to the London Stock Exchange.
In 1998, the company amended its investment policy by removing its small-cap bias. In 2012 Mid Wynd's objective is to achieve capital and income growth by investing on a worldwide basis.

# Separate account

A separate account is a segregated accounting and reporting account held by an insurance company not in, but rather "separate" from its general account. A separate account allows an investor to choose an investment category according to his individual risk tolerance, and desire for performance. An account may be a generic conservative or aggressive investment allocation, or a specific mutual fund-type account. Some offshore companies allow the account owners to specify the type of separate account to open.
Separate accounts in the U.S. markets are often characterized as either managed or non-managed. A managed separate account is synonymous to a mutual fund in the sense that the investments of the separate account are actively managed (such as stocks, bonds or other debt instruments, loans, derivative instruments, etc.). A non-managed separate account is one that invests more "passively" in that it typically owns shares of other managed pools of investments such as mutual fund shares. This is similar to a "fund of funds" whereby the separate account ("fund") simply invests in shares of one or more mutual funds. This arrangement is sometimes more efficient and cost-effective rather than the insurance company maintaining many separate accounts with similar baskets of securities.
Separate accounts are sometimes confused with separately managed accounts (SMAs), which are privately managed investment accounts opened through a brokerage or financial adviser that uses pooled money to buy individual assets. These differ from mutual funds because the investor directly owns the securities instead of owning a share in a pool of securities. Most SMAs require a minimum investment of $100,000 or more.

# Sense of Doubt

"Sense of Doubt" is an instrumental piece written by David Bowie in 1977 for the album "Heroes". It was the first of three instrumentals on Side Two of the original vinyl album that segued into one another, preceding "Moss Garden" and "Neuköln".
Cited as "portentous" and "thoroughly foreboding", "Sense of Doubt" is one of the darker tracks of the album, with a descending four-note piano motif juxtaposed with "an eerie synth line like a scrap of sound from a silent expressionist-era soundtrack". Brian Eno suggested that the contrasting themes were the result of him and Bowie each following an Oblique Strategies card to guide them in the track's overdubbing, Eno's directing him to "make everything as similar as possible" and Bowie's to "emphasize differences".
"Sense of Doubt" was performed on the Italian TV programme L’altra domenica in 1977 and throughout the "Heroes" tour in 1978.

## Live versions

* Performances from the 1978 "Heroes" tour have been released on Stage (1978) and Welcome to the Blackout (2018).

# Sepeteri

Sepeteri is the biggest town in the Saki East Local Government Area of Oke-Ogun Oyo State, Nigeria. The Yoruba people of Sepeteri are related with fon (ruler) of Dahomey and Ifon in Osun State their crownship is Obatala, Obalufon lineage under Oyo Empire. Sepeteri is located between Igboho, Ago-amodu and Oje Owode (formerly called "Aha") to Shaki, Ago-Are and Iseyin.

## Description

The title of oba of Sepeteri is Obalufon of Sepeteri. The ruling families are Daodus, Baloguns and Ogboros.
Sepeteri is located in between Shaki and Igboho in the Oke-Ogun area, Oyo North Senatorial District of the state of Oyo in Yoruba country. Oke-Ogun comprises ten local governments, excluding Ogbomoso. Oke-Ogun area is situated between Oyo and the present Kwara state. The area starts from Iseyin and ends in Bakase, a small town along the boundary of Oyo State and Kwara State.

## People

The town is homogeneous comprising in the main, people belonging to the Yoruba ethnic group who speak the Yoruba language, although minority groups from elsewhere in Nigeria and Africa are represented. Like all other Yorubas, they are descendants from Oduduwa. The extended family system is important to the Yoruba culture and traditional beliefs.

## Economy

There is mineral availability in the area, such as tantalite, columbite, cassiterite, kaolin, and granite. The Oyo State Government is setting up a lapidary to process the minerals and an international gem stone market in the city of Ibadan where miners can market their wares.
The town has tourism potential, such as Old Oyo National park, Iyemoja Shrine, Fishing festival, Old mining sites.
Agriculture is the major industry in Sepeteri. Apart from the primary roles of providing food and shelter, employment, industrial raw materials, it remains an important source of revenue in the local Government.
The climate favours the growth of food crops like yam, cassava, millet, maize, fruits, rice and plantains. Cash crops such as citrus, tobacco and timber also abound in the state.
