# Edward J. Weiler

Edward J. Weiler (born 1949) was the Associate Administrator for the Science Mission Directorate of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration until his retirement on September 30, 2011.

## Career

Edward J. Weiler received his PhD in astrophysics from Northwestern University in 1976. Prior to joining NASA, Weiler was a member of the Princeton University research staff. He joined Princeton in 1976 and was based at the Goddard Space Flight Center as the director of science operations of the Orbiting Astronomical Observatory-3 (COPERNICUS).
Weiler was hired by Nancy Grace Roman as a staff scientist at NASA Headquarters in 1978 and was promoted to the Chief of the Ultraviolet/Visible and Gravitational Astrophysics Division in 1979. He also served as the Chief Scientist for the Hubble Space Telescope from 1979 until 1998. Before his 1998 appointment as Associate Administrator, he served as the Director of the Astronomical Search for Origins Program at NASA Headquarters in Washington, D.C. He had served as the Associate Administrator for NASA's Space Science Enterprise from 1998 to 2004.
In 2000, Weiler oversaw both the cancellation of a decade-long-considered mission last called the Pluto Kuiper Express and the initiation of a low-cost Pluto mission similar in structure to the Near Earth Asteroid Rendezvous in November of the year. The latter Pluto mission had a launch target window in 2006 and a $500 million budget originally; it ultimately developed successfully into the New Horizons craft to fly by and study Pluto and its moons and, if possible, multiple Kuiper Belt objectives beyond.
Weiler took over leadership of the Goddard Space Flight Center as its 10th Center Director on August 1, 2004. He was named Associate Administrator of the Science Mission Directorate on May 7, 2008, by Administrator Michael D. Griffin. He had been appointed as interim chief of the directorate on March 26 from his position of Center Director of Goddard Space Flight Center.
# Edward J. Wood

Edward James Wood (October 27, 1866 – April 24, 1956) was a prominent local leader of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church) in Alberta, Canada and was the founder of Glenwood, and Hill Spring, Alberta.
Wood was born to Mormon parents in Salt Lake City, Utah Territory. At age 21, he was sent to Samoa as a missionary for the LDS Church, where he served from 1888 to 1892. In 1891, he reportedly raised his missionary companion Brigham Smoot from the dead after Smoot had drowned in the ocean. Upon returning to Utah in 1892, Wood married Mary Ann Solomon. In 1896, Wood was again sent to Samoa, this time to be the president of the Samoan Mission of the church.
After Wood returned to Utah in 1898, Charles O. Card invited him to move to Canada in order to take over management of the management of Card's mercantile store in the Latter-day Saint settlement of Cardston, in the Canadian North West Territories. Wood accepted and moved to Cardston with his family in September 1901. In 1903, Wood married his wife's sister Addie who had been engaged to his brother before the brother died. She lived in Salt Lake City. Wood visited her when he went to general conference, and had two children by her, but he does not include her name in his accounts of his trips.
In 1903, Wood became the president of the Alberta Stake of the LDS Church, which was headquartered in Cardston. In 1906, Wood organized the church's purchase of the 66,500-acre (269 km$^2$) Cochran Ranch for $6 an acre. On this land, Wood founded the Latter-day Saint settlements of Glenwood (1908) and Hill Spring (1910).
In 1923, Wood became the first president of the LDS Church's Cardston Alberta Temple. He simultaneously served as temple president and stake president until 1942, when he was released from his duties as stake president. In 1948, Wood asked to be released as temple president due to ill health. Shortly thereafter, he was ordained the patriarch of the Alberta Stake, a position he held until his death at age 89. At his death, the president of the LDS Church, David O. McKay, said to apostle Hugh B. Brown, "We have never had a greater President of a Stake than Edward J. Wood."
Wood was the father of eight children. In 1958, a school named in his honour was built in Cardston; it was demolished in 2004.
# Edward Morrison House

The Edward Morrison House, at 624 Main St. in Pukwana, South Dakota, was built in 1928. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2005.
It was deemed to be a " a good example of the side gabled roof subtype of the Bungalow/Craftsman style of architecture in South Dakota."
It was built by Edward Morrison.
A second contributing building on the property is a garage with an attached cob house shed.
# Edward Morrissey (director)

Edward Morrissey was a college professor who became a stage actor and then a film director. He taught French and German at the University of California, then became an actor in Shubert productions before assisting D.W. Griffith at Biograph and then directing his own films at Thanhouser.

## Filmography

* The Girl in the Shack (1914), short film
* The House Built Upon Sand (1916)
* Stage Struck (1917)
* The Pointing Finger (1919) with Edward A. Kull also directing
* Just Off Broadway (1920)
# Ekel (Norden)

Ekel is the eastern part of the town centre of Norden. Its name goes back to a Low German description for "acorn" (Eichel) or "oak grove" (Eichengehölz), which gave its name to a medieval fortified house (Wehrhaus) about 800 metres northeast of the big market place. Later a private estate and then part of the agriculturally dominated Norden environs, in the 20th century Ekel quickly merged with Norden as a result of new housing estates and was finally incorporated in 1919.

## Geography

Because Ekel was never an independent administrative unit, but was only a placename used in everyday language, it has no defined boundaries. It can be seen that many new estates relate to the name, Ekel, that do not lie on the land once owned by the historical estate (eastern part Ekeler Weg, Ekeler Land). Today's understanding is that the town quarter of Ekel is roughly bounded by the Norder Tief stream in the southeast, the B 72 federal highway in the northeast and the railway line to the southwest that cuts through the town. To the northwest it is more difficult to define a boundary, the nearest of the medieval fortified houses (of which about 15 encircled the town forming a defensive ring) were Haus Barenbusch and Haus Wirde, so that the boundary can be taken as the very old road of Ekeler Gaste which follows the geest ridge.
In the consciousness of the local people, a not unimportant role in the boundary question is the catchment area of the Ekel Primary School, which extends beyond the named area.

# Eijirō

Eijirō (英辞郎) is a large database of English–Japanese translations. It is developed by the editors of the Electronic Dictionary Project and aimed at translators. Although the contents are technically the same, EDP refers to the accompanying Japanese–English database as Waeijirō (和英辞郎).

## History

The Eijirō project was started by an anonymous Japanese translator. Noting the favorable reception it received when he shared it with his friends, he started the Electronic Dictionary Project, a wiki-like structure that allowed for and even encouraged contributions to the dictionary. This resulted in a comprehensive database that grew to include over 1.66 million entries in the fourth edition.

## Characteristics

Although commonly termed a dictionary, Eijirō differs from other Japanese dictionaries such as the Kōjien by not distinguishing examples from definitions.

## Access

Eijirō can be purchased online as either a CD-R or downloadable dictionary file for a comparatively low price. Eijirō was also released from SpaceALC in 2002, and the SpaceALC version has since gone through eight revisions as of 2016.
In addition, an online version of Eijirō is provided free of charge through the SpaceALC Japanese portal.
# Eijkman Point

Eijkman Point (65°37′S 64°10′W﻿ / ﻿65.617°S 64.167°W﻿ / -65.617; -64.167) is the extremity of a rocky spur projecting into Leroux Bay from the west coast of Barison Peninsula on Graham Coast, Graham Land, on the west side of the entrance to Macrobius Cove and 4 nautical miles (7 km) south-southeast of Nunez Point. It was first mapped by the British Graham Land Expedition under John Rymill 1934–37, and was named by the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee in 1959 for Christiaan Eijkman, a Dutch biologist who in 1890–97 first produced experimental beriberi and initiated work on its prevention.

# Eine warme Kartoffel ist ein warmes Bett

Eine warme Kartoffel ist ein warmes Bett (A Warm Potato is a Warm Bed) is a collection of essays by Nobel Prize-winning author Herta Müller, first published in 1992. The essays were previously published as columns in the monthly Swiss publication Du between 1990 and 1992.
The title comes from one of the cryptic phrases that Müller's mother used in discussing the gulags of the Socialist Republic of Romania. The title essay, written in 1991, was later expanded into a 304-page prose poem called Atemschaukel (The Hunger Angel).

# Firestone Hydroelectric Power Station

The Firestone hydroelectric power station is a hydroelectric power station in Liberia on the Farmington River. Built in 1942, it was the first power generating dam built in the country. Located in Harbel, Margibi County, it is operated by the Firestone Plantations Company.

## Capacity

The project has a generating capacity of 64 megawatts (86,000 hp) produced by four turbines. Initial construction was in order to supply power to a United States military facility in the area during World War II and to supply the city of Robertsfield. The plant was the only hydro power facility to remain intact during the Civil Wars.
# Bellanca CE

The Bellanca CE was the first aircraft designed for the Maryland Pressed Steel Company, by the aircraft designer Giuseppe Mario Bellanca. The aircraft was also called the Bellanca C.E. or the "CE Tractor Biplane".

## Development

In 1916, the Maryland Pressed Steel Company hired Giuseppe Mario Bellanca to develop a two-seat biplane with intention to sell examples to the government during the war effort.
The two-seat plane was built at the Pope Avenue factory in Hagerstown, Maryland.
Bellanca had previously designed his own parasol aircraft in Sicily, bring the examples to New York to test fly. The Bellanca Aeroplane Company and Flying School was formed in 1911 at Mineola Long Island New York, where Bellanca taught the mayor, Fiorello LaGuardia.

## Design

The Bellanca CE was a two-seat biplane using ailerons for roll control rather than wing warping of its predecessor.

## Operational history

Although an example was built, the aircraft did not go into full production after the end of World War I brought a halt to new contracts. The aircraft was purchased in 1919 by a wartime flying instructor named Clarence Duncan Chamberlin. Chamberlin flew the C.E. to Glen Falls, New York commenting that Bellanca gave very conservative estimates of its performance and did not exaggerate its capabilities. Bellanca would remain friends with Chamberlin, hiring him later as his chief test pilot, and eventually setting a transcontinental air record in the Bellanca designed Wright-Bellanca WB-2 Columbia. One Maryland Pressed Steel employee, Lewis E. Reisner, went on to form Reisner Aero Service Company in Hagerstown, which eventually became the Kreider Reisner Aircraft Company.

## Variants

The prototype aircraft, was the Bellanca CD, was built with a 35 hp engine.

# Caroline Townsend

Caroline Townsend (1854-1889) was an American designer and embroiderer, best known for her design work at Tiffany & Co. and as the principal designer at Associated Artists.

## Early life

Caroline Townsend was born in Albany, NY. In 1880, she left home to teach watercolor and china painting at the Hartford, Connecticut branch of the Society of Decorative Art. She taught in Hartford for a year before moving on to New York City.

## Career

In May 1881, Townsend's portière won the $500 first place prize at an embroidery competition held by the Society of Decorative Art at the American Art Gallery at Madison Square.
Through the exhibition of her textiles at the Society, Townsend would have met Candace Wheeler and begin working with her at Associated Artists, which, in turn, led to her collaborating with Louis C. Tiffany & Company.
Townsend would eventually go on to lead a small collective of women in Farmington, Connecticut and teach them needlepoint. This collective submitted a portière to the Pedestal Fund Art Loan Exhibition. After eventually leaving Associated Artists, Townsend would study painting at the Académie Julian in Paris and the Art Students League of New York.
Townsend died abruptly in 1889, one year after marrying Winthrop Scudder.

### Style

Townsend often embroidered flowers which exhibited a surprising deepness for needlework. Her floral designs suggest an influence from the William Morris and the Royal School of Art Needlework. Her technique of using various stitches and colors to create the illusion of depth suggests an influence from Wheeler.

### Reception

Townsend has won great praise from critics and her contemporaries alike.
In describing her top prize winning portière at 1881 Society of Decorative Art competition, Harper's Bazaar wrote:
   The effect was that of looking through an open window at a magnificent jar of branching roses standing on the ledge. The frame-work of the window is represented by a peculiar and indescribable shade of olive plush... The large jar, from whose mouth the rose branches droop, is cut out of a gold and red Japanese brocade, and is sewed to the cream white satin on which the roses are worked. The roses themselves are exquisitely and lavishly wrought in every shade, from pure white to the rich red of the Jacqueminot and the clear yellow of the Marshal Niel. The curtain is a remarkable piece of needle-work to have been executed in so short a time by a single hand.
Louis C. Tiffany wrote that Townsend unscrupulously used every stitch possible to replicate painterly effects of color and shading in needlework.
Candace Wheeler described Townsend as one of the best embroiderers she has known.

# Bruce Halliday (footballer)

Bruce Halliday (born 3 January 1961) is an English former footballer who made 183 appearances in the Football League playing as a centre half for Newcastle United, Darlington, Bury, Bristol City and Hereford United. He also played in Australia and in English non-league football before becoming a football agent.

## Life and career

Halliday was born in Sunderland. He began his football career with Newcastle United when he left school, and made his first-team debut on 25 October 1980 in a 6–0 defeat away to Chelsea in the Second Division. His first and what proved to be only goal for Newcastle was the only goal of the home match against Chelsea that same season. He was a first-team regular in the second half of the 1980–81 season and the first half of the next, but made only two appearances thereafter, both in May 1982. He spent time on loan at Fourth Division clubs Darlington and Bury, and joined the latter on a permanent basis in December 1982. He moved on again, to Bristol City, ahead of the 1983–84 season, and contributed to their winning the Fourth Division title. In 1985, he joined another Fourth Division club, Hereford United, making 83 appearances in all competitions over two seasons.
He then moved into non-league football, signing on a free transfer for Bath City of the Football Conference. The team were relegated to the Southern League Premier Division at the end of the 1987–88 season, but Halliday's performances, playing in midfield rather than his customary central defensive position, earned him the captaincy for his second season. He made 69 appearances in all competitions, scoring once, before leaving in mid-season for Australia.
Halliday played two National Soccer League campaigns for APIA Leichhardt, making 39 appearances without scoring, and captained the team. He then returned to English non-league football with Gateshead of the Conference and Dunston Federation Brewery of the Northern League. His five goals for Dunston included a hat-trick in a 7–0 win against Peterlee.
He was briefly assistant manager to Peter Harrison at Blyth Spartans, before becoming a football agent. He also worked in the financial services industry.
# Brucita

Brucita is a genus of skeletonizing leaf beetles in the family Chrysomelidae. There is one described species in Brucita, B. marmorata. They are found in Texas and Guatemala.
# Francis Moltino

Francis Moltino (1818–1888) was a 19th-century English landscape painter. Most biographical accounts give his place of birth as Milan, Austrian Empire but this is incorrect. Francis Moltino was in fact born Frank George Owen Moulton in Norfolk and no doubt changed his name and reinvented himself to sound more exotic. Moltino married Elizabeth Nockold in 1834 and moved to London in the 1840s.
Between 1847 and 1867 he exhibited at the Royal Academy, the British Institution, and the Royal Society of British Artists. Moltino specialised in atmospheric cityscapes of the river Thames and Victorian London, and in particular vedute scenes of Venice in the style of J. M. W. Turner. Moltino died in Wandsworth, South London in April 1888.
