# Upaon-Açu/Miritiba/Alto Preguiças Environmental Protection Area

The Upaon-Açu/Miritiba/Alto Preguiças Environmental Protection Area (Portuguese: Área de Proteção Ambiental Upaon-Açu/Miritiba/Alto Preguiças) is an environmental protection area in the state of Maranhão, Brazil

## Location

The Upaon-Açu/Miritiba/Alto Preguiças Environmental Protection Area (APA) covers all or part of the municipalities of Urbano Santos (2.8%), São Luís (1.4%), São José de Ribamar (2.25%), São Benedito do Rio Preto (0.34%), Santo Amaro do Maranhão (5.87%), Santana do Maranhão (0.03%), Santa Rita (1.85%), Santa Quitéria do Maranhão (3.91%), Rosário (4.26%), Raposa (0.41%), Primeira Cruz (7.89%), Presidente Vargas (0.29%), Presidente Juscelino (2.2%), Paço do Lumiar (0.55%), Nina Rodrigues (0.05%), Morros (10.8%), Itapecuru Mirim (0.18%), Icatu (9.24%), Humberto de Campos (13.59%), Cachoeira Grande (4.32%), Belágua (3.18%), Barreirinhas (12.07%), Bacabeira (0.79%) and Axixá (1.3%) in the state of Maranhão.
The APA has an area of 1,535,310 hectares (3,793,800 acres). It adjoins the Lençóis Maranhenses National Park to the north and the Delta do Parnaíba Environmental Protection Area to the east.

## History

The Upaon-Açu/Miritiba/Alto Preguiças Environmental Protection Area was created by decree 12.428 of 5 June 1992 with objectives that included controlling use and occupation of the land, exploitation of natural resources, hunting and fishing, protection of fauna and flora, and maintenance of water quality. A 2011 report noted that the APA was not the target of ongoing public policies to protect its ecosystems. The management plan was completed in October 2014, allowing the Secretary of State for Environment and Natural Resources (Sema) to start conservation measures. At that time there was still no managing board.

## Environment

The APA contains elements of the Amazon rainforest (18%), cerrado (63%) and coastal marine (19%) biomes. Vegetation includes pioneer formations (47%), dense rainforest (7%), savanna-seasonal forest contact (1%). savanna-mixed rainforest contact (1%) and savanna-semi-desert-seasonal forest contact (25%). The APA is a birthplace and nursery for most species of coastal elasmobranchii, so deserves special care in management of fishing.
# Saanich Inlet

Saanich Inlet (also Saanich Arm) is a body of salt water that lies between the Saanich Peninsula and the Malahat highlands of Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada. Located just northwest of Victoria, the inlet is 25 km (16 mi) long, has a surface area of 67 km$^2$ (26 sq mi), and its maximum depth is 226 m (741 ft). It extends from Satellite Channel in the north (separating Salt Spring Island from the Saanich Peninsula) to Squally Reach and Finlayson Arm in the south. The only major tributary feeding the inlet is the Goldstream River.
The inlet has been of importance as a fishery to the Malahat and Saanich First Nations for centuries, and many Indian reserves are situated on the shoreline. Since the arrival of Europeans, the inlet has also provided a recreational and commercial fishery. It has also been popular with SCUBA divers. For several years, a port existed on the western shore at Bamberton, servicing a cement works.
For most of the year the deep waters are anoxic, and hydrogen sulphide (H$_2$S) is often detected near the bottom. In the late summer and early fall, oxygenated waters from the Haro Strait and the Satellite Channel spill over into the deep basin of Saanich Inlet.

## Bays and inlets

Notable bays and inlets adjacent to Saanich Inlet include:
* Brentwood Bay, a calm, sheltered bay on the east side of the Inlet, with a small ferry service to Mill Bay.
** Tod Inlet, a smaller inlet off the southwest corner of Brentwood Bay with water access to the northeast corner of Gowlland Tod Provincial Park and the rural community of Willis Point, as well as a private dock at the adjacent world-famous Butchart Gardens.
** Confusingly, Brentwood College School is not located in Brentwood Bay, but rather across the inlet in Mill Bay.
* Coles Bay
* Deep Cove
* Finlayson Arm, a long narrow arm on the south of the Inlet draining Goldstream River at Goldstream Provincial Park. It is named for Roderick Finlayson (1818–1892). The scenic and steep Malahat Drive is on the west side of Finlayson Arm, while Gowlland Tod Provincial Park is on its east.
* Mill Bay, a calm bay and community centre on the west side of the Inlet. The ferry to Brentwood Bay allows a way of travelling to Greater Victoria while avoiding the steep Malahat Drive.
* Patricia Bay, a very deep bay and home to the Institute of Ocean Sciences research facility.
* Squally Reach, an east–west channel connecting the main Saanich Inlet to the north and Finlayson Arm to the south.
** McKenzie Bight, an easy to sail bight on the east side of Saanich Inlet where its meets Squally Reach.
Other notable features around the inlet are:
* Mount Finlayson
* Bamberton
# Chulafinnee, Alabama

Chulafinnee is an unincorporated community in Cleburne County, Alabama, United States.

## History

Chulafinnee was named after the nearby Chulafinnee Creek, which was derived from Creek words chuli meaning "pine" and fina meaning "footlog". Chulafinnee was founded in 1835 when gold was found in the nearby creeks. The population was smaller than that of nearby Arbacoochee (which was also formed after gold was found nearby), but considered by locals to be a more permanent town due to the greater number of brick buildings. Local lore held that the King brothers, (who later founded King Ranch), were prospectors in the area. Remains of some of the mines are located on the Frank Spain Scout Reservation, where participating Scouts are able to learn about the history of the area.
The American geologist Eugene Allen Smith explored the old mines and examined minerals around Chulafinnee in the late 1800s.
A post office operated under the name Chulafinnee from 1842 to 1904.

# Upper Sannian dialect

The Upper Sannian dialect (Ukrainian: Надсянський говір, romanized: Nadsianskyi hovir) is one of the dialects of the Ukrainian language, spoken in the Sian Lowland along the border with Poland. Historically spoken well within Poland, most of its speakers were deported to the Soviet Union as part of Operation Vistula. The dialect is part of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Ukraine since 23 December 2022. It is part of the Galician–Bukovinian dialect group of the Southwestern Ukrainian dialects.
The Upper Sannian dialect is among the most archaic dialects of Ukrainian, and is influenced by several influences from Polish, Czech, Romanian, and Hungarian, owing to its location. Prior to Operation Vistula, the dialect's borders were the Strwiąż and the village of Halychany. Since Operation Vistula, many of its features have been lost. It may still be spoken as far south as Dobromyl.
Among the primary features of the Upper Sannian dialect is the practice of ukannye [uk], in which /ɔ/ is commonly pronounced as /u/. Other notable differences from standard Ukrainian include the pronunciation of В as /ɦ/ instead of /v/, Е as /a/ instead of /ɛ/, and Ф as /x/ instead of /f/, among others.
One notable writer in the Upper Sannian dialect was poet Osyp Makovei, and his works have been preserved in the village of Malniv [uk], where efforts are underway to maintain the dialect.
# St Elisabeth's Church, Reddish

St. Elisabeth's Church is an Anglo Catholic church in Reddish, an area in the Metropolitan Borough of Stockport, Greater Manchester, England, designed by Alfred Waterhouse in the Victorian Gothic style. It is a grade I listed building.

## Architecture

Local mill-owner Sir William Houldsworth commissioned Alfred Waterhouse in the 1870s. Construction took place between 1881 and 1883, paid for entirely by Houldsworth, with consecration on 4 August 1883 by Bishop James Fraser. The church could hold 750 people and was named after Houldsworth's wife. Described by Pevsner as "a superb job, big-boned, with nothing mean outside or in", the church is of Openshaw brick with Wrexham stone dressings. An almost separate belltower contains eight bells cast by Taylor. Six of the bells were dedicated by Bishop Francis Cramer-Roberts on May Day 1897.
Pillars supporting the nave's roof were transported from the nearby canal to the site on the backs of elephants from Belle Vue Zoo. There is a marble screen with four figures on top, possibly the four evangelists, Matthew, Mark, Luke and John.
The strikingly modern Stations of the Cross, by Graeme Willson, were commissioned in 1983, and include local views such as Stockport Viaduct, and Pendlebury Hall on Lancashire Hill, Stockport.

## Religion

St. Elisabeth's is an Anglo-Catholic church, i.e. high church within the Church of England, reflecting Houldsworth's own beliefs. There are several services each week, the main Sung Mass being at 10:30 on Sunday.
The first incumbent was Rev Addison Crofton, succeeded by Rev Edmund Oldfield in 1893.

## Music

The organ was originally built by William Hill & Son of London. It was ordered in 1882 (as Job No. 1854) but was not completed until 1885. It had three manuals and pedals, with tubular pneumatic action linking the detached console on the south side of the choir stalls to the organ on the north side of the chancel, in an elevated position in the Triforium. It was rebuilt by Wadsworth Brothers of Manchester in 1929. During the late 1960s it was disastrously rebuilt by a small, local firm Charles H Smethurst Ltd, to a much reduced specification. The original specification of the organ can be found on the National Pipe Organ Register: but note a more recent rebuild and enlargement (2017) by F H Browne, Canterbury, making use of some of the stored pipework from the earlier 'disastrous' rebuild mentioned above. The organ is restored to 30 speaking stops and some significantly good ranks have been re-introduced.

## Rectory

A rectory, also designed by Alfred Waterhouse, was built for the church in 1874. It, and the walls the south and west of the church, are all grade II* listed buildings.

## In popular culture

St Elisabeth's was used as a set for the wedding of Ashley Peacock and Maxine Heavey in the TV soap opera Coronation Street. The church also featured as the setting for the BBC children's drama Clay broadcast on CBBC. Extensive modifications to the vestry and interior of the church were required to change it into a Catholic church in 1960s Tyneside. It was based on the novel Clay by David Almond and starred Imelda Staunton.
# Otemma Glacier

The Otemma Glacier (French: Glacier d'Otemma) is a 7.7 km (4.8 mi) long glacier (2005) situated in the Pennine Alps in the canton of Valais in Switzerland.
