# Ilmmünster Abbey

Ilmmünster Abbey (German: Kloster Ilmmünster or Stift Ilmmünster) was a collegiate foundation (Kollegiatstift) of canons, formerly a Benedictine monastery, in Ilmmünster, Bavaria, Germany. The church continues in use as a parish church.

## History

The Benedictine monastery was founded in about 762 by the brothers Adalbert and Otker, members of the Huosi, an ancient Bavarian noble family, and their nephew Eio (or Uto), as a daughter house of Tegernsee Abbey, also founded by Adalbert and Otker. Eio is reckoned as Ilmmünster's first abbot. He obtained for the new monastery the relics of Saint Arsatius, to whom the monastery was dedicated. Archaeological remains indicate that the buildings were substantial, but little is known of the monastery otherwise. It may have continued unnoted by the written record, or even been extinguished entirely, perhaps as early as about 925 in the secularisations of Arnulf the Wicked.
In 1060 under Margrave Ernst a collegiate foundation (Kollegiatstift) of canons was set up here. If any trace of the earlier monastery or monastic community remained by that time, the new foundation replaced it. Besides ministering to several parishes, the new foundation ran a school, which gained a high reputation. Among its pupils was Conradin, the last of the Hohenstaufen kings. Distinguished canons included Albert von March, Imperial chancellor, and Nicholas of Cusa, cardinal and Papal legate.
In 1493, Albert V, Duke of Bavaria, despite strong local opposition, transferred the canons and the relics of Saint Arsatius, as well as those of Schliersee with their relics of Saint Sixtus, to increase the standing of his newly-created collegiate foundation Zu Unserer Lieben Frau at the Frauenkirche in Munich. The canons' church of Saint Arsatius, deprived of its relics, lost its function as a centre of pilgrimage, and became a parish church. Such property and assets as remained were sold off in 1802 during the secularisation of Bavaria, but the impressive church remains.

# A Driver for Vera

A Driver for Vera (Russian: Водитель для Веры, Voditel dlya Very) is a 2004 Ukrainian-Russian co-produced psychological drama film from 2004, set in 1962 Sevastopol, Ukraine, directed and written by Russian Pavel Chukhrai. The film won numerous Russian awards including Best Film at the Sochi Film Festival. The film's two-country origin resulted in the film being rejected as Ukraine's entry for the Academy Awards Best Foreign Film category for 2005, due to a rule which states, "[T]he submitting country must certify that creative talent of that country exercised artistic control of the film."

## Plot

During the Khrushchev Thaw in Soviet Crimea, Ukraine, a young cadet in the Red Army named Viktor (Igor Petrenko), becomes a chauffeur for a general (Bohdan Stupka). Viktor begins a relationship with the general's disabled and volatile daughter, Vera (Alyona Babenko). Viktor becomes involuntarily involved in a plot by the KGB whereby KGB agent Saveliev (Andrei Panin) pushes Viktor to spy on the general for KGB purposes. As the action develops around Viktor's relationship with Vera and his conflicted reasons for pursuing it, contrasted with the raw sexual tension between Viktor and the maid, Lida (Yekaterina Yudina), and her scathing attack on his motives rel Vera, the KGB, using Agent Saveliev, plots to take down and ultimately kill the general. Nobody is safe.

## Reception

After acknowledging the film's numerous Russian awards, movie critic Ronnie Scheib nevertheless panned the film in entertainment magazine Variety opining, for example, "[The] pic[ture]'s oddly disjointed wedding of operatic emotionalism and cool aesthetic distance may prove more off-putting than enthralling."

Therefore, under the Hindenburg regime (from summer 1916), new Corps headquarters were created without organic divisions. These new Corps were designated General Commands for Special Use (German: Generalkommandos zur besonderen Verwendung).
63rd Corps was still in existence at the end of the war.

The 63rd Corps was commanded throughout its existence by Bavarian Generalleutnant (General der Infanterie from 17 January 1917) Albert von Schoch.

## Life

The son of the Rev. Alexander Adamson of Kinnermit, Harvey Adamson was educated at the Gymnasium, Old Aberdeen and Aberdeen University, where he was Fullerton Scholar in Mathematics in 1873 and Ferguson Scholar in Mathematics in 1874.
He entered the Indian Civil Service by examination in 1875 and joined the Burma Commission in 1877. He was an assistant commissioner in Burma from 1877 to 1879, settlement officer from 1880 to 1885, deputy commissioner from 1886 to 1893, and commissioner from 1894 to 1899, chiefly of the Mandalay Division.

# Maredudd ap Rhys Gryg

Maredudd ap Rhys Grug (died 1271), was the son of Rhys Gryg (a Welsh prince of Deheubarth) and Mathilde de Clare (a daughter of Richard de Clare, 3rd Earl of Hertford, Marcher Lord of Cardigan). Maredudd initially ruled north east of Ystrad Tywi, including Llandovery Castle, until he expanded to rule the region encompassing Dryslwyn castle.
When his father died, in 1234, Maredudd was still young, and his wardship was entrusted to Gilbert Marshal, 4th Earl of Pembroke; their mothers were distant cousins. In 1241, Maredudd married Gilbert's niece, Isobella; the marriage had probably been arranged earlier.
Maredudd ap Rhys Gryg died at Dryslwyn on 27 July 1271, leaving behind his son, Rhys ap Maredudd. He is buried at Whitland Abbey.

## Exile

Maredudd was exiled from the south around 1250 due to rivalries with his brother and his nephew, Rhys Mechyll and Rhys Fychan ap Rhys Mechyll. He fled to Gwynedd where he joined Llywelyn ap Gruffydd on his successful campaigns of 1256. Llywelyn thus rewarded him with land round Llanbadarn and Cantref Buellt.

## Treason and homage

Maredudd contributed significantly in the 1257 battle of Cymerau where the Welsh side were victorious. However, Rhys Fychan's siding with the Welsh during this battle disenfranchised Maredudd; though he swore allegiance to Llywelyn in 1258, he later that year sided with the king.
Consequently, on 28 May 1259, Maredydd was put on trial for treason, the first trial of its kind in Wales. He was found guilty by a council of native lords and imprisoned in the castle at Criccieth.
In 1261, Maredudd was granted reconciliation with Llywelyn under severe terms, though the king retained Maredudd's homage in 1267 following the peace of Montgomery. Llywelyn received this homage in 1270.

He designed 14 production boats with some boats being for Catalina Yachts and Islander Yachts, as well as his own custom boats in which some he built himself. In 1971, he made the design for the Catalina 27 with Frank Butler. Unlike other boats, production of the boat started without any tweaks to the original design.
