# George Mettam

George William Mettam (1891 – 5 April 1967) was an Australian artilleryman who saw active service in WWI. Pre and post WWI he was a Western Australian state representative rower. At war's end he rowed in the AIF #1 eight to victory at the 1919 Henley Peace Regatta and brought the King's Cup to Australia.

## Club and state rowing

Mettam was born in Wollongong, New South Wales but raised in Perth, Western Australia. His club rowing was from the West Australian Rowing Club. In 1913 and 1914 he was selected at six in the Western Australian representative men's eights which competed for the Interstate eight-oared championship at the Australian Interstate Regatta. He trained as an accountant with the Agricultural Bank (WA) before the war.
After the war he returned to the West Australian Rowing Club and he was again selected at seven in the West Australian men's eight in 1920 when Interstate eight-oared championships recommenced, now racing for the same King's Cup he had won at Henley. He again competed in West Australian King's Cup eights in 1922 and 1923. George's brother Arthur, a winner of the Military Medal also rowed in the West Australian representative eights of 1913 and 1923.

## War service

Mettam enlisted in the AIF aged 25 in May 1916. He joined the 4th Field Artillery Brigade and embarked from Melbourne on HMAT A20 Hororata in November 1916. His first action on the Western Front in France in July 1917 saw him suffer a severe hand laceration which required surgery back in England. He returned to Belgium in November 1917 and saw artillery action with heavy-duty siege batteries in Steenwerck and Passchendaele.
At war's end Mettam rowed in the seven seat of the AIF #1 eight at the 1919 Peace Regatta at Henley-on-Thames, the crew which won the King's Cup which in time, became the trophy for the men's eight event contested annually at the Australian Interstate Regatta. Mettam was seated in the AIF#2 crew for most of the training period leading up to the July 1919 Peace Regatta. Along with Tom McGill and Arthur Scott he was one of the final three crew changes made to the AIF #1 eight just ten days before the event. Later that month he again raced in the Australian AIF eight when they competed at the Inter-Allied Regatta on the Seine in Paris.

## Post war

After repatriation, Mettam returned to Perth. He found a position with Cresco Fertilizer & Co and rose to the position of General Manager. He had a long association with both the West Australian Rowing Club and the Swan River Rowing Club continuing to compete at the masters level and then as a coach of both men's and women's crews. In his final year, Mettam was coach of the Wesley College 2nd eight rowing crew and was heralded by the crew as an inspirational and motivating coach. He married Jessie Burns in November 1924 and they had a son and a daughter. He died of a heart attack after swimming out to rescue the occupants of an upturned boat during a regatta on the Swan River.

### Grounding

On November 30, 2014, during a night navigation, the yacht grounded on a coral atoll of St. Brandon. This happened 10 days after leaving Cape Town, on the way to Abu Dhabi. The yacht was damaged and repaired the race for the last 2 legs. The grounding was because the atoll was not visible on the low scale chart. The crew was rescued by the Mauritius coast guard the next morning. The cause of the grounding was a combination of human error and the features of the navigation software. The software did not show the atoll on the route planning display at low or medium zoom levels, while the atoll would have been shown in the navigation chart display at those zoom levels. The crew on watch did not notice there was a wrong chart display on.
After the grounding the yacht was salvaged and repaired and managed to compete in the final legs 8 and 9 with a new navigator crew.

# Vrbanja (Banja Luka)

Vrbanja is a suburban village and local community in Banja Luka, Republika Srpska, Bosnia and Herzegovina, about 6 kilometres (3.7 mi) south-east of the city's center. Until 1971, it was officially a separate inhabited place. Then it came to be the part of the settlement of Banja Luka – today the City of Banja Luka.
Through Vrbanja passes the Vrbanja River (after which the settlement was named) and two major lines of communication: the Banja Luka – Doboj railway line and the M4 highway (Banja Luka – Kotor Varoš – Doboj).
In addition to the eponymous Vrbanja River, the natural resources of the settlement include the numerous natural springs of drinking water that are found in the surrounding hills.

## History

After the history of Medieval Bosnia and the earlier period, it can be concluded that in this area, there was a very old village. It was located about 500 meters north of the present-day village. The tradition which has been preserved among today's population suggest that the former settlement was organized on the principle of rural cooperatives.
The main activity of the Vrbanja's population in the past was agriculture. Since the mid-twentieth century, many residents were employed in the Banja Luka industry, but agriculture remained the main activity.
During the 1990s, the local (mostly Bosniaks) population has suffered the fate of all Bosniak villages in the Vrbanja valley, from Kruševo Brdo (Krusevo Hill) to Banja Luka. The inhabitants were killed and expelled, the estates occupied local and newcoming Serbs. However, the return of Bosniaks in Vrbanja is one of the most successful projects of repatriation in Bosanska Krajina.

# John G. Ryan

John Gerard Ryan (1910–1989) was an American publisher, president of P.F. Collier & Son Corporation and of The Richards Company, Inc., a subsidiary of Grolier Incorporated. He was pivotal to the 1950s and 1960s expansion of the American encyclopedia business that placed reference libraries in millions of homes. He published and marketed Collier's Encyclopedia, The Harvard Classics, the New Book of Knowledge, the American Peoples Encyclopedia, and other reference works. Ryan helped middle and low income families afford in-home libraries by permitting customers to pay over time with small monthly payments.
Ryan's profitable leadership of P.F. Collier & Son supplied the cash flow that kept its parent company, The Crowell-Collier Publishing Company (later renamed Macmillan, Inc), solvent in the 1950s as it closed its money-losing magazines, including Collier's, and grew into one of the world's largest book publishers. At P.F. Collier & Son, he employed the conservative intellectual William Terry Couch as editor of Collier’s Encyclopedia and instructed Couch to begin compilation of what became Collier’s Encyclopedia’s 24-volume 1962 edition. At Grolier, publishers of Encyclopedia Americana, he built The Richards Company, Inc., into Grolier's highest sales volume book division. Ryan also pioneered the sale of American encyclopedias in overseas markets.

## Personal life

John Gerard Ryan was born July 11, 1910, in South Boston, Massachusetts. He was the eldest son of Michael Ryan of Gortnacrusha, Ballinspittle, County Cork, Ireland and Julia McCarthy Ryan of Grange More, Timoleague, also in County Cork. He was educated in Boston’s public schools. In 1937, he married Veronica Conlon, of Brooklyn, New York. They had six children. A former resident of Teaneck, New Jersey, Ryan died in 1989 at his home in Tenafly, New Jersey.
# Quasi-empirical method

Quasi-empirical methods are scientific methods used to gain knowledge in situations where empirical evidence cannot be gathered through experimentation, or experience cannot falsify the ideas involved. Quasi-empirical methods aim to be as closely analogous to empirical methods as possible.
Empirical research relies on, and its empirical methods involve experimentation and disclosure of apparatus for reproducibility, by which scientific findings are validated by other scientists. Empirical methods are studied extensively in the philosophy of science, but they cannot be used directly in fields whose hypotheses cannot be falsified by real experiment (for example, mathematics, philosophy, theology, and ideology). Because of such limits, the scientific method must rely not only on empirical methods but sometimes also on quasi-empirical ones. The prefix quasi- came to denote methods that are "almost" or "socially approximate" an ideal of truly empirical methods.
Quasi-empirical method usually refers to a means of choosing problems to focus on (or ignore), selecting prior work on which to build an argument or proof, notations for informal claims, peer review and acceptance, and incentives to discover, ignore, or correct errors. To disprove a theory logically, it is unnecessary to find all counterexamples to a theory; all that is required is one counterexample. The converse does not prove a theory; Bayesian inference simply makes a theory more likely, by weight of evidence. Since it is not possible to find all counter-examples to a theory, it is also possible to argue that no science is strictly empirical, but this is not the usual meaning of "quasi-empirical".

## Examples

Albert Einstein's discovery of the general relativity theory relied upon thought experiments and mathematics. Empirical methods only became relevant when confirmation was sought. Furthermore, some empirical confirmation was found only some time after the general acceptance of the theory.
Thought experiments are almost standard procedure in philosophy, where a conjecture is tested out in the imagination for possible effects on experience; when these are thought to be implausible, unlikely to occur, or not actually occurring, then the conjecture may be either rejected or amended. Logical positivism was a perhaps extreme version of this practice, though this claim is open to debate.
Quasi-empiricism in mathematics is an important topic in post-20th-century philosophy of mathematics, especially as reflected in the actual mathematical practice of working mathematicians.
