# Chicksands Priory

Chicksands Priory is a former monastic house at Chicksands in Bedfordshire.

## History

The Gilbertine priory of Chicksands was founded about 1152 by Rohese, Countess of Essex, and her second husband Payn de Beauchamp, Baron of Bedford. Payn and Rohese endowed the priory at its foundation with the church of Chicksands and other Bedfordshire lands. The priory was of the Gilbertine Order, a religious order formed by Gilbert of Sempringham (c. 1083–1189). It was only one of ten religious houses in England that housed both nuns and canons. By 1200 it was one of the largest and wealthiest Gilbertine houses. Fleeing the wrath of King Henry II after the Council of Northampton in 1164, Archbishop Thomas Becket is said to have spent a short time at Chicksands Priory on his way out of England.
After the Dissolution of the Monasteries in the sixteenth century, the priory passed to the Snowe family and then in 1576 to the Osborne family, who owned it for almost 400 years. Chicksands was the residence of the famous letter-writer Dorothy Osborne between her birth in 1627 and her marriage in 1654. Elements of the original building remain, but it has been altered over the years, not least in 1740 by the architect Isaac Ware and in 1813 by James Wyatt, who designed the entrance hall, staircase and porch in the Gothic Revival style. Sir George Osborne's collection of "antiquities, old glass and great paintings" are mentioned "in his home at Chicksands Priory" by Arthur Mee in his 1939 volume on Huntingdon and Bedfordshire.
The Crown Commissioners bought the Chicksands Priory estate on 15 April 1936, later renting it to Gerald Bagshawe, who lived there until it was requisitioned by the Royal Navy. In 1940, after a few months of naval occupation, the RAF followed and it became known, firstly, as RAF Chicksands Priory. In 1950 the United States Air Force took over and continued on the site as a "listening post" until September 1995. Chicksands Priory is a Grade I listed building. The group "Friends of Chicksands Priory" was established in 1975 and tours of the building were offered to the general public until the summer of 1996. They returned to reopen the priory, following intense restoration during 1997 and 1998, in the spring of 1999.
There were reports, at the time that the USAF pulled out of the base, in the local press ("The Comet") and local radio (BBC Three Counties Radio) that some of the departing personnel were taking "souvenirs" from the old buildings, causing damage and loss. Neither the US nor the British authorities would confirm this.
In 2001 the Channel 4 television programme Time Team excavated sections of the site, uncovering part of what was believed to be the Infirmary cloister and several graves, and revealing possible details of the ground plan. The programme suggested that the Nuns' cloister lay under what is today a cobbled courtyard.
The gardens were restored again by a British Army team, beginning in November 2019.

## Burials

Burials at the priory included Rohese de Vere, Countess of Essex.

# Chi Omega Greek Theatre

The Chi Omega Greek Theatre is a structure on the University of Arkansas campus in Fayetteville, Arkansas. It was a gift to the university from Chi Omega, and it was completed in 1930. The structure was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1992.

## Construction

Mary Love Collins, national president for 42 years, and Dr. Charles Richardson, one of the founding members of the Chi Omega women's fraternity, had the dream of one day building a replica of the Theatre of Dionysus at the foot of the Acropolis in Greece at the University of Arkansas. The first chapter (Psi) of Chi Omega was established at the University in 1895, and the national organization gave back to the University in 1930 by completing Love and Richardson's dream. Young-Bryan Construction Company was contracted in 1930 for the job, at a cost of $31,225. University president John C. Futrall accepted the gift on June 28, 1930.

## Uses

The University uses the Chi Omega Greek Theatre for concerts, commencements, convocations, plays, and pep rallies.
Each fall Cross Church hosts a kick-off worship service for college students on the first Wednesday of classes. The event is called C3 at the Greek and draws over 2,000 students every year.
During World War II, a crowd of over 6,000 gathered to watch the Army Air Corps Band. This is believed to be the largest crowd in the theatre's history.
# Gearhart Hall

Gearhart Hall at the University of Arkansas is a building on the university's campus in Fayetteville, Arkansas. The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1992.

## History

Gearhart Hall was built in 1935 as "Classroom Building" with two other structures: the Home Economics Building and the old Student Union. Using Indiana Limestone, the building was finished in 1940 by the Manhattan Construction Company of Muskogee, OK. It initially held faculty only. The Commerce Building was finished in 1947, and the two buildings were connected. It was at this time that the structure was named the Business Administration Building. Five other departments were also housed in this building until the namesake moved out in 1978 to a new Business Building on Ozark Avenue. It was then renamed Ozark Hall, which it remained named until 2015. In 1987, the Commerce Building-portion was razed. The building then came to house the Graduate School, the department of geosciences, and the nursing program. In December 2015, Ozark Hall was renamed Gearhart Hall to honor G. David Gearhart, the fifth and former chancellor of the university.

## Renovation project

Gearhart Hall was expanded over the approximate location of the old Commerce Building. The three-year project, designed by Robert A.M. Stern Architects was completed in 2014. The new wing houses the Honors College and a few classrooms. As part of the expansion, the remaining classrooms also received restoration and updating.
# Truist Stadium (Winston-Salem)

Truist Stadium is a ballpark in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, United States, that replaced Ernie Shore Field. It is primarily used for baseball, and is the home field of the Winston-Salem Dash minor league baseball team.
The ballpark is bounded by Peters Creek Parkway (northwest/west); 1st Street (north); and Green Street (northeast, left-center field). Salem Parkway, which carries US 158 and US 421, is toward the south/southeast.

## History

It was originally planned to open for the 2009 season. Various delays pushed it to mid-2009, and then to the 2010 season. Oversights such as the budget, by city planners, were reported to be the cause.
The first home game was played on April 13, 2010, against the Potomac Nationals, resulting in a 5–4 loss in 12 innings, before 7,111 spectators. At the end of its first season, the stadium was named Ballpark of the Year by Baseballparks.com.

## Naming rights

On February 24, 2010, the Dash announced that Winston-Salem based bank BB&T had signed a 15-year naming rights deal for the new ballpark. BB&T also owned the naming rights for fellow Winston-Salem Entertainment-Sports Complex venue BB&T Field, home to the Wake Forest Demon Deacons football team.
This was the second ballpark in the Carolina League sponsored by BB&T. The first was BB&T Coastal Field (now TicketReturn.com Field at Pelicans Ballpark), home to the Myrtle Beach Pelicans. BB&T also sponsored BB&T Ballpark (now Truist Field) for the Charlotte Knights which opened in the spring of 2014.
The ballpark was renamed Truist Stadium in June 2020 due to the 2019 merger of BB&T and SunTrust Banks to form Truist.
# Industrial Arts Building (Tempe, Arizona)

The Industrial Arts Building on the Arizona State University campus in Tempe, Arizona, later known as the Anthropology Building and now known as the School of Human Evolution and Social Change, was built in 1914. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.

## History

The Industrial Arts Building was designed by L. G. Knipe of Phoenix, following the preliminary drawings of California architect Norman F. Marsh. Marsh's use of Neoclassical Revival architecture had already been demonstrated at such historic sites such as the Monroe School and Phoenix Union High School.
The building is significant in the history of what was then a normal school. It was the first west of College Avenue (which has since been turned into Cady Mall, a pedestrian mall through campus), and it also marked the expansion of the school's scope beyond teacher training.

## Architecture

The Industrial Arts Building is shaped like the letter H, with two stories and a basement. The central entry is recessed 55 feet from the north and south wings, featuring a Neoclassical Revival pediment supported by four Doric columns. The building is faced with tan bricks.
Interior renovations in 1936 and 1973 have removed most of the original interior finishes.

# LMS Jubilee Class 5552 Silver Jubilee

London Midland and Scottish Railway's number 5552 (British Railways' number 45552), named Silver Jubilee was a Jubilee Class 4-6-0 express steam locomotive. It was specially named for the Silver Jubilee of George V.

## Overview

The original 5552 was the first of the class that emerged in June 1934 from Crewe Works (Maker's Number: 63, Lot Number: 97). The original 5552 however swapped identities with classmate 5642 in April 1935 (built December 1934 Crewe, Maker's Number: 203, Lot Number: 112, later named Boscawen). 5552 was given a special livery of all over black (it originally had been, like the rest of the class, painted crimson lake) with silver lining and specially cast chrome numbers and named Silver Jubilee to mark the silver jubilee of George V. This scheme was retained until the 1948 nationalization by British Railways. The rest of its class were thereafter officially known as the Jubilee Class.
It originally had a low degree superheat domeless boiler, but received a high degree superheat domed boiler in 1940. The loco was allocated to several LMS depots during its service, including Longsight, Manchester, in 1947/48, from where it ran on express trains to London Euston and other destinations. It was renumbered 45552 in 1951, receiving new cast numbers. It was also given a livery of Brunswick green during the 1950s. 45552 was withdrawn in September 1964, and scrapped at Cashmore’s, Great Bridge.

## Preservation

Although 5552 was not preserved, it has been represented in preservation. In 1994, classmate 5593 Kolhapur was disguised as 5552 in original livery to mark the silver jubilee of the preserved Great Central Railway. In 2003, another preserved Jubilee, 5690 Leander was temporarily renamed Golden Jubilee for the Golden Jubilee of George V's granddaughter HM Queen Elizabeth II, though retaining the crimson lake livery.

# Sila (mythology)

Sila (Arabic: سعلى أو سعلا أو سعلاة alternatively spelled Si'la or called Si'lat literally: "Hag" or "treacherous spirits of invariable form" pl. Sa'aali adj: سعلوة su'luwwa) is a jinn from Arabian folklore. In early sources, Sila and ghoul were synonyms, but later they became their female counterparts.
These sSila belong to the malicious class of jinn. They are described as talented shapeshifters often appearing in human form and female. Despite their impressive shapeshifting abilities, they can be discovered by their hybrid appearances of animals.
Accordingly, Si'lat are said to live in the desolate parts of the desert where they lead travellers and nomads astray, leading them to their deaths. They are also said to seduce and marry men or even give birth to a child from a relationship between human and jinn.
Silas are usually female and aligned to intercourse and a type of magical jinn, though not all of them are female or succubi.

## "Banu Si'lat" (children of Si'lat myth)

In pre-Islamic Arab countries, there was said to be one man who fell in love with a si'lat and had children who are known as "Banu Si'lat" It was rumored that the Arab population was conceived from descendants of 'Amr ibn Yarbu's' children who were half-si'lat. Their mother was said to have left her family behind after seeing lightning in the sky, interpreting this as a sign to return to her clan. According to Iraqi historian, Mahmud Shukri al-Alusi, Arabs refer to si'lats as women who are said to be slim, witty, powerful and accused of being unloyal seductresses.

# 1945 New Guinea Gremlin Special rescue

The Gremlin Special was a Douglas C-47 Skytrain that crashed during a sightseeing flight over the Baliem Valley (also known as Shangri-La valley) in New Guinea in the eastern part of Netherlands Indies in 1945. The recovery of the three survivors from an isolated valley surrounded by mountains, enemy troops, and native inhabitants made worldwide news at the time and is the subject of the 2011 book Lost in Shangri-La by author Mitchell Zuckoff.

## Accident

On Sunday, May 13, 1945, Col. Peter J. Prossen, maintenance chief of the USAAF’s Far East Air Service Command in Hollandia, arranged a sightseeing flight southward over the New Guinea interior for a group of personnel.
The Gremlin Special flew into the side of a mountain. Five passengers survived the initial wreck with two, Sergeant Laura Besley and Private Eleanor Hanna, succumbing to injuries the next day. The survivors were Corporal Margaret Hastings, Sergeant Kenneth Decker and Lieutenant John McCollom.
The Baliem Valley was previously explored in 1938 by Richard Archbold, flying in a PBY-2. Although the press believed the survivors of the Gremlin Special crash to be the first outsiders to encounter the Yali and Dani who inhabited the area, Archbold had sent two exploration teams into the valley in 1938.

## Rescue

Search aircraft were dispatched when the Gremlin Special never returned. Three survivors were spotted on the ground during an air search on May 17. Two medical paratroopers were deployed to the site, followed by 10 other support troops. A journalist, Alexander Cann, was dropped into the site to document the rescue attempt, and the interactions with the native people.
On May 26, two paratrooper medics from the U.S. Army’s 1st Filipino Regiment parachuted near the crash site to care for the survivors before leading them on a 10-mile trek down the mountain. Another eight paratroopers jumped in to establish a base camp in the valley.
On June 28, the survivors and two paratrooper medics were recovered using Waco CG-4 gliders towed by a Douglas C-47 Skytrain. Three separate rescues were performed by towing a glider with single pilot into the valley. The glider was then loaded and configured for a live capture by the tow plane which recovered the survivors, towing them back to a base in Hollandia.

## Aircraft

* The "Gremlin Special" was a Douglas C-47 Skytrain.
* A Waco CG-4 was used in the rescue attempt. The first glider sustained damage from low flight over trees and a whipping parachute that was snagged on takeoff. A second CG-4 was used for the remaining two rescues.
