# Chiemgau Railway

vteChiemgau Railway :
Legend :
The Chiemgau Railway (German: Chiemgaubahn) is a single-tracked, 9.6-kilometre-long (6.0 mi) railway line between Prien am Chiemsee and Aschau im Chiemgau in the state of Bavaria in southern Germany. It is timetabled as route no. 952.

## Operation and History

In 1875 after Theodor von Cramer-Klett had purchased Hohenaschau Castle and its associated property in the valley of the River Prien, he financed the construction of a railway line to Aschau. It was opened on 18 August 1878 and opened up the Prien valley to the main line from Munich to Salzburg.
In the post-war period the line was worked by railbuses of Class VT 98. In 1987 these were modernised by the repair shop at Kassel and painted in white and mint-green livery. These modernised Chiemgau Railway railbuses were the only ones in the Bundesbahn fleet to be given a special paint scheme - all the others were painted in the red livery, then typical of multiples operated by the DB. The former Chiemgau Railway vehicles are in service today in tourist trains on the Kleinengstingen–Münsingen–Schelklingen–Ulm Hbf route (KBS 759) and known as the Ulmer Spatz (Ulm sparrows). As a result of this uniqueness there are several models by model railway manufacturers of the Chiemgau railbuses.
In 1996 the Chiemgau Railway railbuses (798 652 and 798 653) were replaced by Class 628.4 units. At present RegionalBahn trains work the line from Aschau to Prien (one or two pairs of trains per hour). The 628s need 15 minutes for the ten-kilometre (six-mile) long line. In the mornings and evenings there are trains that run via Prien to Rosenheim on the Munich–Salzburg line. In addition one train runs through each evening from Salzburg via Traunstein to Aschau.
# Bob Cerv

Robert Henry Cerv (/sərv/ sərv; May 5, 1925 – April 6, 2017) was an American professional baseball left fielder. Prior to his professional career, he was a collegiate baseball and basketball player at the University of Nebraska. He was born in Weston, Nebraska, and served in the U.S. Navy during World War II.

## Career

Cerv signed with the New York Yankees in 1950 and was a little-used reserve outfielder on the perennially World Series-bound Yankee teams of the early 1950s. According to sportswriter Robert Creamer, interviewed for the Ken Burns series Baseball, one afternoon in 1956, Yankees manager Casey Stengel approached Cerv in the Yankees' dugout, sat down nearby, and commented, "There's not many people that know this, but one of us has been traded to Kansas City." However, this sequence of events did not really happen. In fact, Cerv was sold for cash to the Kansas City Athletics on October 15, 1956, five days after the Yankees had ended the 1956 World Series with a Game 7 victory over the Dodgers at Ebbets Field. By the 15th, the dugouts and clubhouse at Yankee Stadium had all been emptied and the players returned home.
Cerv prospered as a regular in Kansas City. His best season was 1958, when he hit .305, hit 38 homers, and had 104 RBIs. He was elected to the American League All-Star team, beating out Ted Williams for the starting spot. He also finished fourth in the MVP voting that year. He did all of this while playing injured part of the season. He followed up in 1959 with 20 homers and 87 RBIs. On August 20, 1959, Cerv hit three home runs against the Boston Red Sox in an 11–10 loss.
In May 1960, Cerv was traded back to the Yankees for Andy Carey. During that year's spring training, Cerv participated in the TV series Home Run Derby, where he defeated Frank Robinson. Following the 1960 season, he was drafted by the Los Angeles Angels in the expansion draft and was in the starting lineup for the Angel franchise's inaugural game on April 11, 1961. In May 1961, he was traded back to the Yankees, where he was a substitute and pinch hitter. In June 1962 he was sold to the Houston Colt .45s, who released him in August.
During the 1961 season, Cerv lived in a $251-per-month (equivalent to $2,559 in 2023) apartment in Queens with Mickey Mantle and Roger Maris.
In his career, Cerv had a .276 batting average and 105 home runs, including 12 pinch hit homers. He had 624 hits in 2261 at-bats. Following Cerv's big league career, he coached college baseball at Southeast Missouri State College and John F. Kennedy College in Wahoo, Nebraska, where he also coached the men's basketball team.
Cerv died on April 6, 2017, in Blair, Nebraska, aged 91.

## In media

Cerv was portrayed by actor Chris Bauer in 61*, a 2001 HBO movie directed by Billy Crystal about the 1961 New York Yankees season in which Roger Maris and Mickey Mantle attempted to break the single-season record of 60 home runs established by Babe Ruth in 1927.

# Dürr-i Meknûn

Dürr-i Meknûn (The Hidden Pearl(s)) is a 15th-century Ottoman Turkish cosmography in prose, traditionally attributed to Ahmed Bican. It is a compilation of highly divergent material, arranged in a time running from the "time before time" to the aftermath of the Apocalypse. Metamorphosis constitutes a dominant theme: against a background of cosmic transformation take place many sorts of changes in shape and content.

## Importance

The first half of the 15th century had been crucial in the development of the Turkish language. This makes the Dürr-i Meknûn, with its volume and its varied subject matter, an important source for early Ottoman culture and language. The book was deliberately written by Bican for the common people in the vernacular Turkish and he strongly advocated against the widespread use among the learned elite of Arabic and Persian. Over a hundred surviving manuscript copies (it never appeared in print) testify to its popularity well into the 19th century.

## Authorship and dating

Dürr-i Meknûn, an anonymous work, is usually attributed to Ahmed Bican. Linguistic analysis and a comparison to other works known to be from his hand seem to consolidate this tradition. Its autograph is unknown and might have been lost at some date.
The year of writing is unclear. Stéphane Yerasimos, assuming an eschatological mood in the work triggered by the Turkish conquest of Constantinople, dates the book shortly after 1453. The Dutch scholar Laban Kaptein, however, disputes this claim after a minute analysis of the work's End Times contents.

## Synopsis

Bican has divided the work in 18 chapters, analogous to the 18,000 worlds created by God.
Chapter 1: On the heavens, the Throne, the Throne(-heaven), the Tablet and Pen, Heaven and Hell, the Moon, The Sun and the stars, and the cherubs
Chapter 2: On the respective Earths and their marvels, the creatures living thereon, and on the Hell
Chapter 3: About the Earth's surface and the creatures thereon
Chapter 4: On the science of geodesy ("handasa"), on climate zones and the days and the hours
Chapter 5: On marvelous mountains
Chapter 6: On the seas and the islands and their great variety of creatures
Chapter 7: On cities, mosques, cloisters and climate zones (Among other tales, the Turkish foundation legend of Istanbul, coined here by Bican)
Chapter 8: On marvelous mosques and cloisters
Chapter 9: About Süleyman’s (Solomon's) throne
Chapter 10: About the Throne of Bilqis, and her visit to Süleyman
Chapter 11: On the duration of life (The science of physiognomy ("firasa") also receives a short treatment in this chapter)
Chapter 12: On places destroyed by God's wrath
Chapter 13: On the properties of plants, fruits and stones according to the Doctores
Chapter 14: On figures, statues; some stories on cities
Chapter 15: On birds, among them the Simurg
Chapter 16: On the occult science of jafr; on what goes on in this World and the Other World; on the secret signs of jafr (jafr: Islamic numerology, compare also ‘kabbalah’)
Chapter 17: On the Signs of Judgement Day
Chapter 18: On the End Time; some sermons
