# Santa Maria Ecological Corridor

The Santa Maria Ecological Corridor (Portuguese: Corredor Ecológico de Santa Maria) is an ecological corridor in the state of Paraná, Brazil.

## Location

The Santa Maria Ecological Corridor crosses the municipalities of Santa Terezinha de Itaipu and São Miguel do Iguaçu in Paraná. It connects the Iguaçu National Park in Brazil, which adjoins the Iguazú National Park in Argentina, with the protected margins of Lake Itaipu, and via these margins with the Ilha Grande National Park.
The corridor consists of the Apepú River basin, the Fazenda Santa Maria Private Natural Heritage Reserve (RPPN), the Fazenda Santa Maria, the Bonito River Basin and its connection with the protected areas of Itaipu. The corridor runs for about 15 kilometres (9.3 mi) from the Iguaçu National Park to the lake protection strip. It is about 12 kilometres (7.5 mi) from south to north. It covers the banks of the Apepú river, which rises in the RPPN and flows south into the Iguaçu National Park. From the RPPN a narrow corridor runs north in a straight line for about 3 kilometres (1.9 mi) to the headwaters of the Bonito River, which flows north into the Lake Itaipu.

## Environment

This corridor connects several remnants of seasonal semi-deciduous forest in south-western Paraná with reforested areas. The forest remnants are in the Iguaçu National Park, the Fazenda São José Legal Reserve and the Fazenda Santa Maria RPPN. The reforested areas are the Dry Range (Faixa Seca) and the Lake Itaipu Protection Range. The Fazenda São José Legal Reserve contains secondary growth forest. The Fazenda Santa Maria RPPN has 242 hectares (600 acres) of mature Atlantic Forest. The Faixa Seca is a reforested area about 4 kilometres (2.5 mi) long and 60 metres (200 ft) wide, the same width as a riparian forest, but with no watercourse. The riparian forests bordering the Bonito River have suffered severe degradation and are undergoing a natural forest recovery process.

## History

The Santa Maria Ecological Corridor was created by Brazilian Institute of Environment and Renewable Natural Resources (IBAMA) ordnance 195 of 10 October 2001. The objectives are to link areas of biological importance to support gene flow of flora and fauna, to increase awareness and environmental education, and to develop research into environmental recovery and conservation. The corridor was created through a partnership of government and civil society organizations and individuals. Participation of the local farmers was critical to project success.
Starting in 2003, fragments of forest covering 902 hectares (2,230 acres) were preserved and connected. Forest recovery was undertaken in 73.3 hectares (181 acres) with the planting of 128,000 seedlings of 70 native species of tree. 68 kilometres (42 mi) of fencing was erected.

# Henry St John Halford

Sir Henry St John Halford, 3rd Baronet (9 August 1828 – 4 January 1897) was an English landowner and expert rifleman.

## Life

He was born the son of Sir Henry Halford, 2nd Baronet, MP for Leicestershire South, whom he succeeded in 1868. He was educated at Eton College and Merton College, Oxford, where he graduated B.A. in 1849. On his father's death he inherited Wistow Hall in Leicestershire, where he thereafter lived.
In 1860 he took command of a company of the Leicestershire volunteers, becoming colonel of the battalion in 1862. He held the office, with a 10-year break, until 1891, when he was made honorary colonel. In 1886, he was awarded C.B.
He was picked High Sheriff of Leicestershire for 1872, and in 1889 was appointed the first Chairman of Leicestershire County Council, a post he held until 1893.
Halford's main interest was rifle shooting and the development of rifle technology. In its obituary, The Times of London dubbed Halford “the father of rifle-shooting”, noting:
   Sir Henry, as he was always called, was perhaps never absolutely the best shot of his generation; a title which could have been claimed, for all-round shooting, by the famous Ross, by Mr. Humphry, and by Captain Gibbs in succession. But, not excepting Mr. Baker and Mr. Wyatt, both of whom have breaks in their shooting history, no man could claim so long and steadily successful a career as Sir Henry Halford.
He was an excellent shot and won several tournaments. In 1877 and 1882 he was captain of a team of eight who shot against an American team at Creedmoor Rifle Range in New York. Halford also took part in the Creedmoor match in 1883. He was for many years Chairman of the National Rifle Association.
He was also a member of the government Small Arms Committee which recommended the adoption in the Army of the Lee-Metford rifle. Sir Henry had worked closely with engineer William Ellis Metford, inventor of the rifle, establishing a workshop and firing range at Wistow Hall to help with the experimental work. Another collaborator on the project was his friend Thomas Fremantle, 3rd Baron Cottesloe, who was also an expert shot. The team made significant improvements in rifling and bullet design.

## Family

Halford married Elizabeth Ursula, daughter of William John Bagshawe but had no children. The baronetcy thereby passed briefly to his brother John Frederick, who died later the same year. Sir Henry left Wistow Hall in his will to Baron Cottesloe, whose descendants still own the property.
# When the Gods Fall Asleep

When the Gods Fall Asleep (Portuguese: Quando os Deuses Adormecem) is a 1972 Brazilian film directed by José Mojica Marins. Marins is best known for the Zé do Caixão (Coffin Joe) film series. The film is a sequel to Marins' 1971 film The End of Man (Finis Hominis), in which the character of Finis Hominis, an influential, messianic culture figure turns out to be an escaped mental patient. Rather than the horror themes which Marins was noted for, the film, like its predecessor, is low budget black humored social satire.
In this film, Finis Hominis (after returning to the asylum) again feels the need to escape the asylum in order to put right the world's increasing social unrest that he sees in the news.

## Plot

Finis Hominis is a mental patient who is kept in an insane asylum, and is known for his occasional escapes from the institution, including the most recent episode during which Finis Hominis became a powerful world figure during the few days of his escape.
Again hospitalized, he sees in the news increasing social, religious, and political unrest in the world, and again feels the need to escape the institution to put order in the streets. He wanders through society, influencing and interfering in isolated incidents, correcting wrongs and exposing corruption primarily in a strictly accidental or coincidental manner.
There is also a parallel sub-plot regarding the impending closure of the asylum due to the cessation of funding from an anonymous benefactor.

# Cassandra (short story)

"Cassandra" is a science fiction short story by American writer C. J. Cherryh. It was first published in The Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction in October 1978, and won the Hugo Award for Best Short Story in 1979. It was only her second published short story, after "The Dark King" (1977).
"Cassandra" has been translated into German, French, Polish, Italian and Romanian.
Short story writing is an activity that Cherryh generally only undertakes upon request or when an idea surfaces that does not lend itself to a novel. Receiving a Hugo Award for this story therefore came as a complete surprise to Cherryh.
This short story is Cherryh's modern take on the Greek mythological figure Cassandra who had the gift of prophecy.

## Plot summary

The gift of prescience, rather than a blessing, is a curse for the mythological character Cassandra that she cannot control. She sees the future all the time and cannot turn it off. In Cherryh's story, Crazy Alis leaves her burning apartment each morning and heads for the bombed-out coffee shop, passing charred corpses on the way. She knows it's going to happen but can do nothing about it. When the bombs do come and fire engulfs the city, her foresight actually saves her, but at what cost? She is the sole beneficiary of her misfortune in an otherwise non-functional existence.

## Awards and nominations

* 1979 – Hugo Award for Best Short Story: winner
* 1979 – Nebula Award for Best Short Story: runner up
* 1979 – Locus Award for Best Short Story: runner up
* 1999 – Named one of Locus magazine's 50 best science fiction short stories of all time

# Colin Taylor (footballer, born 1940)

Colin Taylor (24 August 1940 — June 2005) was an English professional footballer who played as a left winger for Walsall F.C. in three different spells, with whom he made at least 459 league appearances by the end of the 1972–73 season, scoring at least 169 goals. He also made 33 appearances in league games for Newcastle (7 goals) in season 1963–64 and 34 appearances in league games for Crystal Palace (8 goals), in season 1968–69, in which he helped Palace achieve promotion to the top flight for the first time. His haul of 32 goals for Walsall in season 1959–60 remains a record from the left wing.
Taylor was a flame-haired, barrel-chested left-winger who was a member of Walsall's first team during their golden days of the 1950s and 1960s. Taylor was given the nickname "Cannonball Colin" by Walsall supporters because of his accurate left foot and strong shooting abilities. Such was the power in his left boot, Walsall fans of his era would claim that "his left leg was out of proportion to his right". Supporters would also eulogise that, when he shot at the "Railway End" goal at Fellow's Park, and happened to miss, the speed of the ball would be such, as to knock the rust off an old tea-sales caravan, permanently parked at that end.
On his retirement from professional football, Taylor, a quiet, modest man, worked as a painter and decorator.
Following his death in 2005, Walsall F.C. promised to build a permanent memorial for Taylor.

Frisanco (Friulian: Frisanc) is a town and comune (municipality) in the Regional decentralization entity of Pordenone in the region of Friuli-Venezia Giulia, north-eastern Italy. Its frazione (borough) of Poffabro is one of I Borghi più belli d'Italia ("The most beautiful villages of Italy").

## History

As early as 1492 a church stood in the center of the village.
A fire swept through the mountain village in 1606, destroying much of the town including all of the town's public and religious records. In the archives of the Curia of Udine there are the documents from 1648 to 1650 regarding a trial of the inquisition against witches who were said to meet for sabbats in the meadow of Malgustât, behind Mt. Raut. In one document it is written that the, "village of Frisanco in particular is said to be the witches’ nest".
On 28 September 1810 by Napoleonic decree Frisanco became the administrative center of the Val Colvera which included annexing Poffabro.

## Main sights

* Palazzo Pognici, built in 1600. It has its own square and fountain.
* Di Lorenzo Courtyard has a Christian fresco which dates back to June 6, 1782.
* The current church's bell tower was completed in 1901 and it rises high above the small clusters of buildings which makes up the town made of two and three story buildings.

## Culture

As of 2007, there is an annual circus arts festival, Brocante, based in Frisanco. There are shows in Frisanco and neighboring villages. The festival takes place in late July and lasts for four days, ending with a parade through the older parts of Frisanco.

## Villages

Colvere (Colvuri in Friulian) lies in the Val Colvera, and takes its name from the stream. It has five borghi (boroughs), Gobbo and Cudili on the west bank of the Colvera, Fornasatte, Polàz and Mènis on the east bank. In the 17th and 18th centuries, the west bank was mostly settled by people from Casasola, and from Poffabro on the west bank.
