# Akalat

The akalats (stressed on the second syllable) are medium-sized insectivorous birds in the genus Sheppardia. They were formerly placed in the thrush family, Turdidae, but are more often now treated as part of the Old World flycatcher family, Muscicapidae.
The genus contains 11 Sub-Saharan forest-dwelling species:
| Image | Common Name | Scientific Name | Distribution |
| - | Usambara akalat | Sheppardia montana | Usambara Mountains |
| - | Iringa akalat | Sheppardia lowei | Eastern Arc forests |
| - | Rubeho akalat | Sheppardia aurantiithorax | Rubeho Mountains |
| - | East coast akalat | Sheppardia gunningi | Nguu Mountains and eastern Afromontane |
| - | Sharpe's akalat | Sheppardia sharpei | Eastern Arc forests and northern Malawi |
| - | Bocage's akalat | Sheppardia bocagei | miombo region |
| - | Short-tailed akalat | Sheppardia poensis | Western High Plateau and Albertine Rift montane forests |
| - | Lowland akalat | Sheppardia cyornithopsis | African tropical rainforest |
| | Equatorial akalat | Sheppardia aequatorialis | eastern Afromontane |
| | Gabela akalat | Sheppardia gabela | western Angola |
| | Grey-winged robin-chat | Sheppardia polioptera | Sub-Saharan Africa (rare in eastern and southern Africa) |

## Taxonomy and etymology

The genus Sheppardia was introduced in 1909 by the South African ornithologist Alwin Karl Haagner with the East coast akalat (Sheppardia gunningi) as the type species. The name of the genus was chosen to honour the collector and farmer P. A. Sheppard.
Richard Bowdler Sharpe, who had never visited Africa, associated the akalats, in their Bulu appellation, with birds of "different kinds" occurring in the forest understorey. His main collector in West Africa, George L. Bates, denoted them more specifically as "little members of the genus Turdinus, which are called in Fang and Bulu "Akalat"....". The latter genus denoted a group of Old World babblers, currently classed as near-babblers in the genus Illadopsis.
David Armitage Bannerman's volumes on West African birds, published from 1930 through to 1951, became well-established reference works for the region, and retained the name akalat for Trichastoma, which is Illadopsis. Reichenow however classed Turdinus batesi as an Alethe, then in the Turdidae (thrushes and flycatchers), followed by Jackson and Sclater in 1938 who applied it to Sheppardia specifically. Mackworth-Praed and Grant (1953, 1955) and Williams (1963 - 1980s) retained their usage. In 1964 the name was still recorded as denoting both groups, namely the Malococincla, i.e. Illadopsis near-babblers in West Africa, and the Sheppardia chats in East African literature, though the latter convention prevailed in modern times.
Yet the calls of the aforementioned species only doubtfully agree with the akalat's appellation as an omen of death. It is recorded that the akalat's forest song, respectively referred to as "boofio" and "woofio" by the Bulu and Ntumu peoples, is believed by them to predict the death of a near parent who bids them farewell with this song.
# DRG Class 99.22

The three engines of DRG Class 99.22 were standard, narrow gauge locomotives (Einheitsloks) in service with the German Reichsbahn. They had operating numbers 99 221 to 99 223.
They were built and deployed for the railway line from Eisfeld to Schönbrunn. In 1944, during the course of the Second World War, locomotives 99 221 and 99 223 went to the Thamshavnbanen copper ore line in Norway. After the end of the war they stayed there and were later scrapped. Locomotive 99 222 remained on duty until 1966 on its original route, but when it became clear that the end was nigh, it transferred to the Harz and is in service today on the network of the Harz Narrow Gauge Railways (Harzer Schmalspurbahnen or HSB) between Nordhausen, Quedlinburg and Wernigerode.
The Class 99.22 is the most powerful of the German narrow gauge steam locomotives and had Bissel axles. In addition the coal tank tapered toward the back. One feature was the Janney automatic centre buffer coupling. After its transfer to the Harzquerbahn, 99 222 was converted to the normal compensating coupling with central buffer. This conversion can be clearly recognised by the cutouts in the buffer beam.
The locomotives had a Walschaerts valve gear driving the third axle.
On the introduction of the DR's new EDP numbering scheme in 1970 the engine was given operating number 99 7222, which she carries to this day because the HSB has retained the DR numbering from 1970.
The new DR Class 99.23-24 locomotives were built on the basis of the Einheitsloks. Differences in the new engines are the feedwater heater and the bar frame.
* 99 221 last duties: Thamshavnbanen (Norway) - scrapped in 1953
* 99 222 in service with the HSB
* 99 223 last duties: Thamshavnbanen (Norway) - scrapped in 1947

The Gingerbread Man premiered on November 15, 1905 at the Auditorium Theatre in Malden, Massachusetts. It then toured to the Hyperion Theatre in New Haven, Connecticut, the Wieting Opera House in Syracuse, New York, and the Chestnut Street Opera House in Philadelphia.
The tour reached Broadway where it opened at the Liberty Theatre on Christmas Day 1905. It ran at that theatre for a total of sixteen performances; closing on January 6, 1906. That same production returned to Broadway for sixteen further performances at the New York Theatre from May 14, 1906 - May 26, 1906. It also toured nationally for performances during the holiday season in 1906–1907. The production was directed by Louis F. Gottschalk and Charles Sinclair, and produced by Harry E. Converse and Mason Peters. The sets were designed by Ernest Albert, and the costumes by Archie Gunn, Will R. Barnes and J. Hegeman. The production starred Eddie Redway in the title role.

# KUR EC5 class

The KUR EC5 class was a class of 1,000 mm (3 ft 3+3⁄8 in) gauge 4-8-2+2-8-4 Garratt-type articulated steam locomotives built during the latter stages of World War II by Beyer, Peacock & Co. in Gorton, Manchester, England, for the War Department of the United Kingdom. The two members of the class entered service on the Kenya-Uganda Railway (KUR) in 1945. They were part of a batch of 20 locomotives, the rest of which were sent to either India or Burma.
The following year, 1946, four locomotives from that batch were acquired by the Tanganyika Railway (TR) from Burma. They entered service on the TR as the TR GB class.
In 1949, upon the merger of the KUR and the TR to form the East African Railways (EAR), the EC5 and GB classes were combined as the EAR 55 class. In 1952, the EAR acquired five more of the War Department batch of 20 from Burma, where they had been Burma Railways class GD; these five locomotives were then added to the EAR 55 class, bringing the total number of that class to 11 units.

## Class list

The builders and fleet numbers of each member of the EAR 55 class were as follows:

# Santiago Graf

Santiago Graf (October 16, 1845 – August 31, 1904) was a Swiss born brewer, businessman, and director and manager of Compania Cervecera Toluca y Mexico. He was the first successful brewer of lager beer in Mexico and pioneered the "Graf" style of Vienna lager, one of the two styles of Vienna lager today and still popular in Mexico and the southwest United States.

## Life

Graf was born on October 16, 1845 in Oberembrach, Switzerland. In 1875 Graf purchased the original Compania Cervecera Toluca y Mexico, a small producer of cerveza sencilla, a form of light ale, from fellow Swiss Ausgustin Marendazand and began brewing a popular amber ale which is often cited as the first commercially successful beer brewed in the southwest. The problems with temperature control during wort production and fermentation in Mexico's hot climate forced him to continue brewing ale until the opening of an international railroad link with the United States enabled him to import the first large ice producing absorption machines from Germany in 1882. With better equipment and the ability to cool wort and fermenters properly, Graf was the first to successfully brew lager in Mexico. In 1890, Graf formed a stock company and erected the first large, modern lager brewery in Mexico.
Graf brewed various types of light colored ambers but seemed uninterested in pale beers like the popular Pilsener style. Disappointed with the quality of malt and hops available locally, he imported all his hops from Europe and most of his malt from the United States. In addition, he set up his own malting facilities in Mexico, using barley imported from the United States. Graf was able to increase the acidity of his mash by increasing the percentage of dark malts in his recipes thereby counteracting the high alkalinity of brewing water available in Mexico, with the alkalinity simultaneously mellowing the acidic flavors of the dark malts in the final product. The result was a popular, mellow, darker style of Vienna lager. The popularity of the Toluca y Mexico beers was such that Graf frequently had difficulty filling orders and was forced to seek outside investors to rapidly increase production.
Graf died near Xalapa on August 31, 1904, from endocarditis vegetations as a complication of an ongoing infection, and is buried in Toluca, Mexico.
