# Landol

Landol (pronounced; Italian: Landolo) is a village in the Municipality of Postojna in the Inner Carniola region of Slovenia.

## Name

Landol was attested in written sources as Landol in 1313 (and as Londol in 1335, Landovia in 1398, and Lanndaw in 1406). The name is a compound, formed from *lani 'hind, female red deer' + dol 'valley', thus 'red deer valley'. Compare also Runtole, formerly known as Landoll, as well as Jelendol for a name with the same semantic motivation.

## History

A major trade route connecting Ljubljana with the sea passed through Landol from Roman times until the mid-18th century. A toll house, mentioned in written sources in 1398, was established in the village, and there was also a customs office.
Slovenian Partisans were active in the area during the Second World War and had a bunker in the area. In December 1944, the Partisans burned the lumber at the sawmill in the hamlet of Brinje. The steam-powered sawmill stopped operating in 1948.

## Churches

There are two churches in the settlement. The church in the hamlet of Brinje is dedicated to Saint Nicholas, and the small church in Landol itself is dedicated to Saint Josse. Both churches belong to the Parish of Hrenovice.
# Eduard Bally

Peter Eduard Bally colloquially Eduard Bally (11 August 1847 – 24 July 1926) was a Swiss industrialist, philanthropist and politician who served on the National Council (Switzerland) from 1902 to 1917. He was the older son of Carl Franz Bally who founded the Bally (fashion house) in 1851.

## Early life and education

Bally was born 11 August 1847 in Schönenwerd, Switzerland, the older of two sons, to Carl Franz Bally and Cécile Bally (née Rychner). He was the grandson of Peter Bally (1783–1849), a silk ribbon manufacturer of Austrian descent. He graduated from Old Cantonal School Aarau and completed a technical apprenticeship at Bally followed by a commercial apprenticeship with a private bank in Geneva. He educated himself on the American industry standards with stays in the United States (1869–70 and 1872 and 1876).

## Personal life

In 1874, Bally married Lisette Charlotte Elise "Marie" Prior (1849–1923), a daughter of Johann Prior, a pastor, and Helene Prior (née Detmer), of Lower Saxony in the German Empire. They had four children:
* Maria Helene Bally (1875–1954), married Erwin Arnold von Waldkirch (1868–1921), five children.
* Iwan Bally (1876–1965), married Clara Rosalie Wissmann, four children, deemed successor of his father

Bally died on 24 July 1926 in Schönenwerd, Switzerland aged 78.
# Castle chapel

Castle chapels (German: Burgkapellen) in European architecture are chapels that were built within a castle. They fulfilled the religious requirements of the castle lord and his retinue, while also sometimes serving as a burial site. Because the construction of such church edifices was expensive for the lord of the castle, separate chapels are not found at every seat of the nobility. Often, a secondary room furnished with an altar had to suffice.
According to historian Sarah Speight, "The religious role of chapels was as normal, as routine, and arguably, as integral to castles as any concern for symbolism and/or military strength."
Castle chapels were usually consecrated to saints; especially those associated with knighthood, such as Saint George or Saint Gereon. In 1437, the chapel of Saint Mark at the castle in Braubach, Germany, gave the castle its present name: the Marksburg.
Frequently, castle chapels were located near the gate or in the upper storey of the gate tower as, for example, at Wildenberg Castle in the Odenwald. This was in order to claim God's protection over the most vulnerable point in the castle.
Though castle chapels might be used as a parish church by inhabitants of towns associated with castles, it was rare for castles to incorporate burial grounds.
Prominent examples are the double chapels at imperial castles and Kaiserpfalzen, for example the chapel of Nuremberg Castle. For services, the nobility were seated in their upper balconies and their retinue in the pews below. The design of the chapel stressed the differences in status.

## Examples

* St John's Chapel, London, inside the Tower of London, whose buildings also include the Church of St Peter ad Vincula, a parish church.
* St George's Chapel, Windsor
* Altenstein Castle Chapel
* Castle Chapel, Stargard Castle

"Za našu ljubav" placed 21st with 29 points, thus qualifying for the final.
On the night of the final Amila Glamočak performed 21st in the running order, following Poland and preceding Slovakia. At the end of the voting, Bosnia and Herzegovina received 13 points (highest being 6 from Turkey) placing 22nd out of 23 entries, ahead of only Finland.

## Fictional character biography

As a New God, Jezebelle possesses superhuman physical abilities and is nigh-immortal. Additionally, she can fly, survive in space, and generate optic blasts.
# StorSimple

StorSimple was a privately held company based in Santa Clara, California, marketing cloud storage. It was funded by venture capital from Index Ventures, Redpoint Ventures, Ignition Partners, and Mayfield Fund for a total of $31.5 million.

## History

StorSimple was founded in 2009 by former Cisco Systems and Brocade Communications Systems executives Ursheet Parikh and Guru Pangal. StorSimple marketed a cloud storage gateway computer appliance called Cloud-integrated Storage (CiS). Their approach claimed to integrate primary storage data deduplication, automated tiered storage of data (across local and cloud storage), data compression, encryption, and significantly faster data backup and disaster recovery times.
StorSimple was certified for Microsoft Windows Server 2008 and VMware. It integrated with cloud storage from Amazon, Google, Microsoft and Rackspace. In 2012 StorSimple was considered to be at the forefront of its genre.
The appliance had an iSCSI interface using 10 Gigabit Ethernet and used serial ATA disks as well as solid-state drives. In April 2012, StorSimple announced the replacement of its 2U 5010 (2.5 TB raw capacity) and 7010 (5 TB raw) models: the 5020 with 2 TB of raw capacity, the 7020 (4 TB), 5520 (10 TB) and the 4U 7520 (20 TB).
On October 16, 2012, Microsoft agreed to acquire StorSimple. It was finalized by November 15.

## Integration

After acquisition, Microsoft integrated StorSimple into its Azure product suite and refreshed the hardware, launching the 8100 and 8600 on-premise fixed-configuration storage arrays in 2014. The 8100 offered between 10 TB and 40 TB locally depending on data compression and data de-duplication and up to 200 TB maximum capacity inclusive of the Azure cloud storage. The 8600 offered 40 TB to 100 TB locally and 500 TB inclusive of cloud storage. Like their predecessors, the appliances combined solid state and standard disk drives. A virtualised version of the platform, running on a virtual machine in the Azure cloud, was initially marketed as the 1100 then re-branded as the 8010. In 2015 this was replaced by the 8020, offering 64 TB maximum, compared to its predecessor's 30 TB.
