# Frank E. Kirby

Frank E. Kirby (July 1, 1849 – August 25, 1929) was a naval architect in the Detroit, Michigan (United States) area in the early 20th century. He is widely regarded as one of the greatest naval architects in American history.

## Biography

Kirby was a marine engineer and architech. "He prepared plans and specifications for the refitting of the Grant, Sherman, Sheridan, Logan, and Thomas, and [was] a consulting engineer... of the transport branch of the Quartermaster's Department."
Kirby mostly specialized in paddle-wheel and steamship design. Perhaps his most famous vessel, Tashmoo, was a paddle-wheeler launched on New Year's Eve, 1899. She was constructed by the Detroit Shipbuilding Company in Wyandotte, Mich., for the White Star Steamship Co. of Detroit. The 306-foot vessel made her maiden voyage on June 9, 1900. She would become one of the best known - and most beloved - excursion steamers on the Great Lakes.
Kirby also is well-renowned for his design of the "Bob-Lo boats" - the Columbia and the Ste. Claire. Boblo Island was a major amusement park destination for residents of southeast Michigan (and southern Ontario, Canada) throughout most of the twentieth century. He is also considered the father of modern ice-breaking technology. He designed the D&C Navigation Co.’s armada of stately night boats, including the City of Detroit III.

# Battle of Piltown

The Battle of Piltown took place near Piltown, County Kilkenny in 1462 as part of the Wars of the Roses. It was fought between the supporters of the two leading Irish magnates Thomas FitzGerald, 7th Earl of Desmond, head of the government in Dublin and a committed Yorkist, and John Butler, 6th Earl of Ormond who backed the Lancastrian cause. It ended in decisive victory for Desmond and his Yorkists, with Ormond's army suffering more than a thousand casualties. This effectively ended Lancastrian hopes in Ireland and bolstered FitzGerald control for a further half-century. The Ormonds departed into exile, although they were later pardoned by Edward IV.
It was the only major battle to be fought in the Lordship of Ireland during the Wars of the Roses. It is also part of the long-running feud between the FitzGerald dynasty and the Butler dynasty.
# Lucius Vipstanus Messalla (consul 115)

# Spring Brook Cemetery

Spring Brook Cemetery is an historic cemetery on Spring Street in Mansfield, Massachusetts. It was established in 1860 as a private cemetery on a 4-acre (1.6 ha) parcel of land, and has grown over time to 22 acres (8.9 ha), and is now the largest of Mansfield's cemeteries. The area appears to have been used as a cemetery before its formal establishment; there are a number of graves that predate 1850, the oldest of which is marked 1790. The most prominent structure in the cemetery is the Card Memorial Chapel, designed by Charles Eastman and built in 1898 with funding from Simon and Mary Card, in memory of their daughter Lulu.
The cemetery was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2007.
# Shanghai II: Dragon's Eye

Shanghai II: Dragon's Eye is a 1990 video game published by Activision. It is a sequel to Shanghai (1986).

## Gameplay

Shanghai II: Dragon's Eye has game mechanics based upon Mahjong solitaire. Shanghai II: Dragon's Eye consists of two main gameplay modes. There is the traditional solitaire mode in which the player attempts to remove all tiles in one of twelve prearranged layouts based on the Chinese zodiac. There is also the traditional Shanghai layout. The other mode is called Dragon's Eye. It is a duel that has two players (Master and Slayer) taking turns. The Master attempts to construct a pile of tiles to be shaped like a dragon. The Slayer, on the other hand, attempts to remove matching tiles to prevent the dragon from fully forming.

## Reception

Alan Emrich reviewed the game for Computer Gaming World, and wrote that "the gamers are fortunate that the work is done and now they can relax enjoy playing Shanghai II either solitaire or with a friend. Even with some flaws in execution, the concepts in scope and grandeur that sired Shanghai II are those worthy of the highest praise. Well done, Activision. Well done".
Amaya Lopez for Zero rated the game at 83 and said that "Shanghai II offers nothing rivetingly new", but thought that the fans of puzzle games will try this title.

# Harnasie

Harnasie, Op. 55, is a ballet-pantomime written by the Polish composer Karol Szymanowski between 1923 and 1931, to a libretto by Jerzy Rytard and his wife and Jarosław Iwaszkiewicz, the librettist of Szymanowski's opera, King Roger.
The story is set in the Tatra mountains and is based on the legend of the abduction of a bride by the robber Harnaś and his band (the "Harnasie" of the title). Szymanowski first visited Zakopane in the Tatras in 1921 and studied the music and folklore of the Gorals people. The score makes extensive use of folk-song and employs a choir with tenor solo.
The ballet comprises two acts, preceded by a prelude. There are only three principal characters: a shepherd, a girl and the robber (Harnaś). In the first scene, the shepherd is driving his sheep to pasture and the girl encounters Harnaś. In the second scene, Harnaś kidnaps the girl from her wedding. The third scene, in the robber's den, concludes in an epilogue with a lively dance.
The ballet was first performed on 11 May 1935 at Národní Divadlo in Prague in a choreography by Jelizaveta Nikolská, a second production, choreographed by Serge Lifar followed on 27 April 1936 at Palais Garnier in Paris.. There it proved an exceptional success for Szymanowski nearly a year before his death. The Polish premiere took place at Teatr Wielki in Poznań on 9 April 1938 in a choreography by Maksymilian Stakiewicz.
# Lexington Bridge (Lexington, Missouri)

The Lexington Bridge was a seven-span truss bridge on Route 13 over the Missouri River at Lexington, Missouri, between Ray County, Missouri, and Lafayette County, Missouri. It was designed by the Kansas City Bridge Company and opened on October 31, 1924. The main span was 408 feet (124 m) and the total length was 3,072.4 feet (936.5 m). Its deck width was 20 feet (6.1 m) and it had vertical clearance of 18.1 feet (5.5 m). It was closed upon the opening of the new Ike Skelton Bridge on June 25, 2005, and was demolished the next month.

# Lexington Bridge (Mississippi River)

Lexington Bridge is a plate girder bridge that spans the Mississippi River between Saint Paul and Lilydale, Minnesota, United States. It was built in 2004 by the Minnesota Department of Transportation.
The original Lexington Bridge was built in 1965 as part of the proposed construction of Interstate 35E. However, the bridge did not see much use for a while, because I-35E was not completed between Lilydale and Burnsville until the mid-1980s. Construction of I-35E between Minnesota State Highway 5, just north of the bridge, and Interstate 94 in downtown St. Paul was not finished until the early 1990s. The increase in traffic caused the old bridge to deteriorate faster than expected. As a result of deterioration, and a need to carry more traffic, the old bridge was replaced. The staging of this construction project was notable for keeping four lanes of traffic open during the process. A new span was built on the west side of the bridge, and then traffic was detoured to the new southbound span and the old southbound span. The old northbound span was demolished, and a new northbound span was built. When this was completed, the old southbound span was demolished, and the inner two lanes of the new bridge were completed.
The bridge has an anti-icing system that sprays potassium acetate onto the bridge surface to prevent frost and ice formation in inclement weather. This is part of a test to see if measured application of chemicals can prolong the life of a structure, as compared to the usual liberal application of sodium chloride salt.
# Every Soul is a Circus

Every Soul Is a Circus is a comedic ballet choreographed by Martha Graham. The dance premiered on December 27, 1939, at the St. James Theatre in New York City. The original score was composed by Paul Nordoff. Philip Stapp created the set. Edythe Gilfond designed the costumes. The production marked the first appearance of Merce Cunningham with the Martha Graham Dance Company.
The troupe still performs the work on occasion. It was last reprised for the 85th anniversary season in 2012.

## Title and theme

The title Every Soul Is a Circus is borrowed from a Vachel Lindsay poem:
   Every soul is a circus Every mind is a tent Every heart is a sawdust ring Where the circling race is spent.
The ballet's theme is Everywoman's inner desire to be the center of attention and the ridiculous lengths to which she will go to attain that end. As Empress of the Arena, the lead female dancer imagines herself as the star of every act. In a vignette with the Ringmaster and Acrobat, she is the apex of a love triangle. In another scene, she performs a romantic duet as the Ringmaster's beloved. But after taking her "star turn," she is ultimately humiliated by the Ringmaster. The lone spectator, the empress' alter-ego, watches as the frenzy of the circus performance builds. The empress' movements and demeanor progress from childlike to flirtatious to addled. She is finally overcome with confusion, her actions becoming ever more undignified and absurd.

## Initial reception

When the ballet debuted, many audiences and critics were astonished to see Graham's wry, witty side. Most of her dances were so serious, she had been dubbed "Mirthless Martha" by her musical director Louis Horst. Reviewers described her performance in Every Soul is a Circus as "poignant clowning" having a "warmth of personality", "frank and funny" and "belly-laugh provoking."

## Original cast

The original cast comprised the following nine performers:
* Martha Graham as the Empress of the Arena
* Erick Hawkins as the Ringmaster
* Merce Cunningham as the Acrobat
* Jean Erdman as the Ideal Spectator
* Nellie Fisher as the First Arenic Performer
* Sophie Maslow, Ethel Butler, Marjorie Mazia, Frieda Flier as Other Arenic Performers

# Le jeune homme et la mort

Le Jeune Homme et la Mort is a ballet by Roland Petit, choreographed in 1946 to Bach's Passacaglia and Fugue in C Minor, BWV 582, with a one-act libretto by Jean Cocteau. It tells the story of a young man driven to suicide by his faithless lover. Sets were by Georges Wakhévitch and costumes variously reported as being by Karinska or Cocteau. Petit is purported to have created Le Jeune Homme et la Mort for his wife-to-be Zizi Jeanmaire, but it was danced by Jean Babilée and Nathalie Philippart at its 25 June 1946 premiere at the Théâtre des Champs-Élysées with costumes by Tom Keogh.
In 1951, Petit staged the ballet at American Ballet Theatre. In 1966, he filmed the ballet in France with Rudolf Nureyev and Zizi Jeanmaire.
Le Jeune Homme et la Mort was revived by Mikhail Baryshnikov at the American Ballet Theatre in 1975 and in the 1985 movie White Nights, in arrangements by Petit for Baryshnikov. It has been in the repertoire of the Paris Opera Ballet since 1990 and was danced at its premiere there by Kader Belarbi. It has also been danced by the Ballet National de Marseilles (1984), the Berlin Opera Ballet (1985), the Boston Ballet (1998), the Bolshoi Ballet (2009), the Mariinsky Ballet (late 1990s, revival 2012) and the English National Ballet (2018).
# Errand into the Maze

Errand into the Maze is a Martha Graham ballet based on a poem by Ben Belitt set to music by Gian Carlo Menotti. The surrealistic set was designed by Isamu Noguchi, the costumes by Graham herself. The dance uses the Greek myth of Ariadne and the Minotaur to explore the theme of conquering one's inner demons, more specifically the fear of sexual intimacy. The piece premiered at the Ziegfeld Theatre on February 28, 1947, with Graham as the protagonist, a sort of female Theseus, and Mark Ryder as the Minotaur-like character.
Errand into the Maze is one of Graham's best-known and most popular ballets. It remains in the Martha Graham Dance Company repertory. Deborah Jowitt's 2024 biography of Graham takes its title from this work.

## Plot

The original program notes describe the action as "that errand-journey into the maze of the heart to face and do battle with the Creature of Fear". Barely fifteen minutes in length, Errand into the Maze is designed almost as a solo work, with the bull-horned, staff (bone)-carrying Creature of Fear serving more as a prop than an active participant.
The unnamed female protagonist weaves her way through a rope maze outlined on the stage to arrive at a set (originally by Isamu Noguchi) that includes a suggestive v-shaped wooden frame (like a tree, or a woman's crotch). She is confronted three times by the creature, ultimately overpowering him. He drops the bone/staff as he sinks to the floor in surrender. The heroine dances in the void between the two vertical set elements as the curtain falls.

## Primary dancers

When the piece premiered in 1947, the primary dancers were Martha Graham and Mark Ryder. They performed a revised version the next season, and received better reviews. When Graham once again danced Ariadne in 1952, she was accompanied by Stuart Hodes. They continued to perform the piece together over the next few seasons.
When the Batsheva Dance Company of Israel was founded by Graham and Baroness Batsheva de Rothschild in 1964, the revival of Errand into the Maze was danced by Rina Schenfeld and Moshe Efrati. Yuriko Kimura and Tim Wengerd were the primary dancers of the piece in the 1970s. In the 1980s, the piece was danced first by Terese Capucilli and Larry White and then by Christine Dakin and Mario Comacho.

# Abraxas (ballet)

Abraxas is a ballet in five scenes with both music and a libretto by Werner Egk that is based on the Faust legend. The original 1948 choreography for the ballet was created by Marcel Luipart, but elicited controversy and was banned after five performances by state censors. A subsequent version by choreographer Janine Charrat became a standard part of the German dance repertory, and the work also was choreographed successfully by Tom Schilling.

## History

Abraxas was premiered by the Bavarian State Opera at the Prinzregententheater in Munich, Germany on 6 June 1948 in a production using designs by Wolfgang Znamenacek. The ballet was controversial at its premiere due to its subject matter which some criticized as "obscene" and others as "demonic". It was banned by state censors after just five performances. However, the ballet was later re-choreographed by French dancer Janine Charrat in 1949, and her version of the ballet became a standard work in the German dance repertory. A third version by the choreographer Tom Schilling premiered at the Semperoper in 1957 and was later staged a second time to positive reviews at the Komische Oper Berlin.
The plot of the Abraxas was taken from Heinrich Heine's Der Doctor Faust; an opera libretto he wrote for the impresario Benjamin Lumley but which ultimately never made it to the stage. Heine's story is based on the Faust legend, and was notable for changing the Mephistopheles character from a male role into a female one. In the ballet the female devil convinces Faust to sell his soul in exchange for sexual fulfillment and restoration of youth. However, after meeting the woman Marguerite, Faust falls in love and tears up his contract with the devil which ultimately leads to both his and Marguerite's death.
# Designs with Strings

Designs with Strings, also Designs for Strings (French: Dessins pour six or pour les six; Danish: Variationer), is a ballet choreographed by John Taras to music from the second movement of Tschaikovsky's Trio in A minor. It was first performed on 6 February 1948 in Edinburgh by the Metropolitan Ballet.
