# Leeds Lions

Leeds Lions are a defunct British motorcycle speedway team who were based at Fullerton Park Sports Stadium, adjacent to the Elland Road football ground in Leeds, England.

## History
### Origins

The city of Leeds first experinced the sport of speedway at a little known track at Post Hill on 9 April 1928. Organised by the Leeds Motor Club events were held at the foot of Post Hill. Later that year on 13 October, speedway was introduced to Fullerton Park, following an earlier inspection by the Auto-Cycle Union. The introduction of speedway at Fullerton Park in 1928 included a team fixture against Middlesbrough and seemed to end the planned expansion of the Post Hill track.

### Team

League racing first took place in 1929 with the formation of the English Dirt Track League, effectively a Northern League, which ran alongside the Southern League. The inaugural season started with a home win against Barnsley on 29 March and the Leeds team went on to win the league title. Their success was helped by the withdrawal of White City (Manchester) who were leading the league but failed to complete the season. The 1929 league winning team included riders such as George Greenwood, Arthur Atkinson and the Langton brothers Eric and Oliver.
After a season when Fullerton Park opted not to field a team, the club competed in the 1931 Speedway Northern League finishing second. The subsequent season saw the merger of the Northern and Southern Leagues to form the National League but Leeds di not participate. Despite a few fixtures being held at Fullerton Park in 1932, speedway would cease until 1938.
The team's final appearance was in the 1938 Speedway National League Division Two, where they finished 9th.

# Oligosoma roimata

The Aorangi skink (Oligosoma roimata) is a species of lizards in the skink family. The species is native to New Zealand.

## Distribution

In New Zealand O. roimata is endemic to the Poor Knights Islands, off the east coast of the Northland region. It is known to be present on the island of Aorangi.

## Related species

Closely related species also present on Aorangi Island include Oligosoma hardyi.

## Relationships

O. roimata is most closely related to Oligosoma ornatum, which is a variable species complex. Although morphological divergence is very minor, there is 8.7–9.8% sequence divergence (using the ND2 mitochondrial gene). O. roimata has been previously referred to informally as Cyclodina ornata "Poor Knights", Cyclodina ornata "PKI", and Oligosoma ornatum "Poor Knights Islands".

## Diagnosis

From Oligosoma ornatum, the species can be recognised by its white venter. The venter of O. ornatum is usually flushed with variable colour, but may sometimes be white or cream. The ear opening is slightly smaller than that of O. ornatum. The maximum snout-vent length (SVL) of about 63 millimetres (2.5 in) is much less than that of O. ornatum which is about 80–85 millimetres (3.1–3.3 in).
# Henry Neville Montagu

He purchased the struggling Sydney Punch around 1873 and as editor turned its fortunes around. He was subsequently sued for libel by a firm of solicitors by claiming they had pocketed virtually all of a defendant's award when in fact it was only most of it.
He served as manager of the Majeroni Theatrical Company for their season in Brisbane, September 1876, and shortly after sold Punch to C. A. W. Lett for a substantial profit.
He was manager for other entertainments.

## Other interests

He was a drama critic for The Morning Post of London, and music and drama critic for several Sydney papers, including Empire and Town and Country Journal.
In 1881 he was elected foundation president of the Sydney Press Club.
He was a distinguished Freeason, and was made PGSD (Past Grand Senior Deacon), England, a high distinction, for his services.

## Family

He married Theodora Maximilliana Zincken and had a large family; Neville W. Montagu, the Sydney solicitor (died 1945) and noted lawn bowler, was his eldest son. He married again in 1894, to Ada Carolyn Glover, widow of Dr G. R. R. Lloyd.
He died at his home, 'Llanabar", 77 Bridge Road, Camperdown, and his remains were buried in Rookwood Cemetery.

# I giardini di marzo

"I giardini di marzo" (lit. 'The Gardens in March') is a 1972 song composed by Lucio Battisti (music) and Mogol (lyrics), arranged by Gian Piero Reverberi and performed by Lucio Battisti.
The song is built in a crescendo, with minimalist music and a trembling, whispering voice at the start, followed by a gradual melodic and orchestral overture, a structure which reflects the lyrics, which initially feature a dark portrait of depression which progressively opens up to hope.
Battisti recorded the song in French "Les jardins de septembre" and in German as "Gärten im März". Artists who covered the song include Mina, Vicky Leandros, Ligabue, Richard Clayderman, Eugenio Finardi, Formula 3, Vasilis Papakonstantinou.

# Compendium of the Christian Doctrine in the Portuguese and Brasílica Language

Compendium of the Christian Doctrine in the Portuguese and Brasílica Language (Portuguese: Compêndio da doutrina cristã na língua portuguesa e brasílica) is a catechism by John Philip Bettendorff [pt], published in 1687 in the city of Lisbon. It was the last book on the Old Tupi language printed by the Society of Jesus in the Brazilian colonial period and the first whose author was an active Jesuit in the Amazon. It had a second edition printed in 1800, reissued also in Lisbon by José Mariano da Conceição Veloso.
It is sometimes regarded as the most inaccessible of the Tupi works printed by the Jesuits in the 16th and 17th centuries; the only Tupinologist who had access to the first edition was Antônio Lemos Barbosa. Two copies of this first edition are known, one in the National Library Foundation of Rio de Janeiro and another in the National Library of Spain.
# Förvaltare

Förvaltare is a Swedish military rank (OR-8) for specialist officers above Överfanjunkare and below Regementsförvaltare in the army and Flottiljförvaltare in the air force and is translated to sergeant major. The original military meaning of the word 'Förvaltare' was the same as 'conductor', as in a warrant officer conductor of ordnance stores or quartermaster stores. It can also be compared to the rank of Adjutant in Francophone forces.

## History

Förvaltare became a rank designation in 1945. Prior to that, it had been used as a occupational title, originally within the Swedish Army Quartermaster Corps.

## Promotion

For promotion to Förvaltare, 16 years time-in-service, and a minimum of four years time-in-grade as Fanjunkare is required, as well as HSOU (Sergeant Majors Academy). A Förvaltare has the same relative rank as a Major.

## Duties

* Förvaltare are specialist officers at Skill Levels C (Advanced) and D (Expert).
* As a functional specialist the Förvaltare serves in units and higher staffs as a staff member/functional expert in one or more areas. Examples of positions are functional staff officers, development officers, instructors at schools and centers. Late in the career, positions at the Defence Materiel Administration or at the Swedish Armed Forces Headquarters may be relevant.
* As senior advisors the Förvaltare serves as executive officers or senior advisors to the commanding officer. Positions are e.g. Battalion Sergeant Major, or second-in-command or commanding officer of a Headquarters and service company.

# James D. Maxwell II

James D. Maxwell II (born May 4, 1975) is an associate justice of the Supreme Court of Mississippi.

## Biography

Maxwell earned a Bachelor of Arts from the University of Mississippi and Juris Doctor from the University of Mississippi School of Law. He practiced civil law in Jackson in the firm of Daniel Coker Horton & Bell before returning to Oxford to serve as an Assistant United States Attorney for the Northern District of Mississippi in 2002.

### Mississippi Court of Appeals

Maxwell served as a judge on the Mississippi Court of Appeals. He was initially appointed to the appeals court by Governor Haley Barbour on February 2, 2009, then elected in 2010 and re-elected in 2014.

### Supreme Court of Mississippi

On December 23, 2015, Governor Phil Bryant announced his appointment of Maxwell to the Supreme Court.
In January 2020, Maxwell upheld the 12-year conviction of Willie Nash, an African American man, for having a cell phone while in jail. Nash was booked into Newton County Jail in Decatur, Mississippi. Jail officials failed to confiscate Nash's cell phone in the booking process, so he was unaware that he was not allowed to have one. His phone was seized when he asked a jail official for a charger. Nash was using the cell phone to text his wife. In August 2018, the judge handed him a 12-year sentence. On review, Maxwell wrote, "While obviously harsh, Nash's twelve-year sentence for possessing a cell phone in a correctional facility is not grossly disproportionate."

## Awards and recognition

Maxwell is a past president of the Young Lawyers Division of the Mississippi Bar Association, the Lafayette County Bar Association, and Tri-County Young Lawyers. He has also served on the Board of Bar Commissioners, the Mississippi Bar Foundation, the Diversity in the Law Committee, and the Board of Directors of the Mississippi Prosecutors Association. He is a graduate of Mississippi Economic Council's Leadership Mississippi program and in 2007 was named "Top 40 Under 40" by the Mississippi Business Journal.

## Personal life

Maxwell is married to his wife Mindy and they have two children, Trip and Mae Covington. They are members of First Baptist Church of Oxford.

In March 1944, he was sent to Northern Ireland with the Office of Strategic Services, where he received further intelligence training from British operatives. After D-Day, he spent a short time in Paris to interview people who had been arrested by the French Resistance and sort out ordinary citizens from Nazi collaborators and soldiers. After two weeks in Paris, he was transferred to Verdun, France, where he was based for most of the rest of the war and served missions for the Office of Strategic Services.
In March 1945, Lerner went to Germany, where he remained in the final days of the war and during the denazification process.

# Barry Cunningham (politician)

Barry Thomas Cunningham (26 October 1939 – 12 September 2018) was an Australian politician. Born in Pakenham, Victoria, he was a dairy and potato farmer and an agricultural contractor before entering politics. In 1980, he was elected to the Australian House of Representatives as the Labor member for McMillan, defeating Barry Simon of the Liberal Party, who had been deprived of Democratic Labor Party preferences due to his views on abortion. He was defeated in 1990 but was re-elected in 1993, before being defeated again in 1996.
In 2015, Cunningham and three other former MPs brought a case before the High Court of Australia, purporting that reductions to their retirement allowances and limitations on the number of "domestic return trips per year" under the Members of Parliament (Life Gold Pass) Act 2002 was unconstitutional under S51(xxxi) of the Constitution of Australia. They lost the case in 2016, with the court finding that Parliament was entitled to vary the terms of allowances. He died in 2018.

John Lessels (9 January 1809 – 12 November 1883) was a Scottish architect and artist, active in Edinburgh and the Scottish Borders (particularly in the former county of Berwickshire).

## Life

He was born and educated in Kirkcaldy, Fife, and initially worked for his father as a carpenter on the Raith estate. He joined the office of William Burn (1789–1870), acting as one of his inspector of works until he established his own practice in a flat at 7 St Vincent Street in Edinburgh's Northern or Second New Town in 1846. Important commissions included the Walker Estate, the area of the Western New Town developed from the 1850s and the Edinburgh publishing firm of Thomas Nelson by 1860. He was appointed as joint architect to the City Improvement Trust, with David Cousin, in 1866, and oversaw the redevelopment of parts of the Old Town and completion of multiple incomplete schemes in the New Town. In 1858 he moved to 21 Heriot Row, a Georgian townhouse facing onto Queen Street Gardens, which was his home and office.

He was a prominent freemason and member of the Old Kilwinning Lodge on St John St off the Canongate.
He is buried in Dean Cemetery. The grave lies in the first northern extension in a north-west section, set back but visible from the main east-west path. His monument is in the form of an unusual sundial and states, wrongly, his date of birth as 1808. It formerly bore his portrait on a photographic glazed tile.

# Cape canary

The Cape canary (Serinus canicollis) is a small passerine bird in the finch family. It is a resident breeder in southern Africa and has been introduced to Mauritius and Réunion.
Its habitat is fynbos, grassland and gardens, preferably in highland areas. It builds a compact cup nest in a scrub.
The Cape canary is 11–13 cm in length. The adult male has a green back with black edging to the wing feathers wings and tail. The underparts, rump and tail sides are yellow, and the lower belly is white. The rear head and neck are grey, and the face is cinnamon. The female is similar, but with less grey on the head. The juvenile has greenish-yellow underparts with heavy brown streaking. This species is easily distinguished from the yellow-fronted canary by its lack of black face markings.
The Cape canary is a common and gregarious seed-eater. Its call is tsit-it-it, and the song is warbled goldfinch-like trills and whistles given in display flight or from a high perch.

## Subspecies

Arranged alphabetically.
* Cape canary (S. c. canicollis) (Swainson, 1838)
* S. c. griseitergum Clancey, 1967
* Kivu canary (S. c. sassii) Neumann, 1922
The East African subspecies (S. c. flavivertex) is very distinctive, much brighter, and with a yellow head, lacking the grey colour. It is now usually given species status as the yellow-crowned canary (S. flavivertex).

# Jessie Lloyd

Jessie Georgina Lloyd (1843–1885) was an Australian short-story writer, novelist, poet and essayist who wrote under the pseudonym Silverleaf.

## Early life

Lloyd was born at Longford Farm, near Launceston. She was the daughter of Joseph William Bell, an auctioneer, and Georgiana (née Ford). The family moved to Glenorchy before she married.
Lloyd married George Alfred Lloyd (1843–1921) at the Wesleyan Church, O’Brien's Bridge (now Glenorchy) on 6 September 1866. After her marriage, she moved with her husband to New South Wales. Their daughter was born in Sydney the following year. Lloyd's husband bought a share in a property, Terembone, near Coonamble and that became her home for the rest of her life. Three sons were born there.

## Career

In the late 1870s Lloyd began contributing to Sydney newspapers and periodicals, using "Silverleaf" as her pen name. From the money she earned, she was able to educate her two eldest children at boarding schools in Sydney.
Lloyd was known as author of "All Aboard", a Christmas story published in The Echo when her first book was published in 1880. She dedicated this novel, The Wheel of Life, to Lady Robinson, wife of Hercules Robinson, then Governor of New South Wales. The Sydney Morning Herald critic reviewed it favourably, but chastised the proofreader for the number of printer's errors.
In 1881 the Illustrated Sydney News and New South Wales Agriculturalist and Grazier published Lloyd's "Silverleaf Papers", a series of essays on topics such as "New Chums", "Glimpses of Station Life", "Seasons of Drought", "Squatters versus Selectors", "Natives" and two articles on housekeeping. The series continued under the monthly's new name, Illustrated Sydney News, with the publication of "A Merry Christmas!" and ran through 1882, including two essays on land legislation, which drew a response from Colin Macdonald in the Australian Town and Country Journal. Simultaneously, she wrote two serialised short stories, "The Willoughbys" and "The Legend of the Red Bluff" published by The Sydney Mail and New South Wales Advertiser. In 1884 she began writing for The Daily Telegraph.
