# Edward Hicks (bishop)

Edward Lee Hicks (23 December 1843 – 14 August 1919) was an eminent Anglican priest and author who served as Bishop of Lincoln 1910–1919.

## Life and works

Born in Oxford in 1843, Hicks was educated at Magdalen College School and Brasenose College, Oxford and ordained in 1886. After a spell as Fellow and Tutor at Corpus Christi College, Oxford he was Rector of Fenny Compton before becoming Warden of Hulme Hall in 1886. After this he was a canon residentiary wason Manchester Cathedral, then Rural Dean of Salford until his elevation to the episcopate. He had not been supported by the Archbishop of Canterbury for the post. ‘I do not think Hicks would do for Lincoln .... ‘ The Archbishop regarded Hicks as a ‘faddist’ who threw ‘himself eagerly not to say fanatically into any cause which he espouses’. But at that time Prime Minister H. H. Asquith was the key figure in episcopal appointments and, influenced by Hicks as a ‘strong Liberal in politics’, recommended him to the Crown for the post at Lincoln.
During the First World War, unlike other bishops, Hicks did not encourage recruitment to the Forces nor did he condemn Germany. He was peace-loving, and had promoted ‘an honourable neutrality of Great Britain'. He was accused of cowardice, and produced a strong reply to his critics showing prescience of what the "Great War" would involve. ‘Anyone who knows what war means - its stoppage of industry, its heaping up of debt and taxation, its unemployment, its famine, its missing at home, its paralysis of all effective work and expenditure on Social Reform, not to mention the horrible carnage of the battlefield, the agonies of the wounded, the visitations of disease and pestilence that always follow campaigns and battles - will be the last to tax me with cowardice if I confess to a loathing of war.’ During that War, he lost a son, Edwin, in 1917 and gave up part and eventually the whole of his palace, first for the use of Belgian refugees and then to the Red Cross. Novelist and biographer Penelope Fitzgerald was his granddaughter.

## Classical scholar and epigraphist

After university, Hicks was also much in demand as a classical scholar and epigraphist, contributing to numerous articles and publications, including:
Hicks, E.L. et al., The Collection of Ancient Greek Inscriptions in the British Museum, Printed by order of the Trustees of The British Museum, 1874; Hicks, E.L. et al., Illahun, Kahun and Gurob, 1888-1890, D. Nutt, 1891; Hicks, E.L. and W.R. Paton, The inscriptions of Cos, Clarendon Press, 1891; Hicks, E.L. and G.F. Hill, A Manual of Greek Historical Inscriptions, Clarendon Press, 1882.
# Perin Jamsetjee Mistri

Perin Jamsetjee Mistri (1913–1989) was the first woman to qualify as an architect in India.

## Early life and family

Perin Jamshedji Mistri was born into an illustrious Parsi family of engineers and master builders, originally from Navsari. Her father, eminent city architect and engineer, Jamshedji Pestonji Mistri, founded the architectural firm Mistri & Bhedwar (later Ditchburn, Mistri & Bhedwar), which built the Art Deco Metro Cinema at Marine Lines, the HSBC bank building at Fort, the Colaba and Cuffe Parade Sea walls, the Taraporevala Mansion at Cuffe Parade and the first runway of the Mumbai Airport. Perin Mistri's younger brother, architect Minocher 'Minoo' Mistri, was one of the founders of the Indian art and architectural publication, Marg.
Following an early education in Gujarati in Bombay, she became a boarder at Miss Kimmin's High School in Panchgani and moved to England at the age of 10, completing her education from the Croydon High School. When she returned to Bombay, she enrolled at the Sir Jamsetjee Jejeebhoy (J.J.) School of Art and obtained her diploma in architecture in 1936. She joined her father's firm M/s. Mistri and Bhedwar in 1937, where she practiced for almost half a century as partner before she died in 1989.

## Career

One of Perin's first major works, and one of the few to survive, was Sir Behramji Karanjia's airy, Art Deco bungalow at Carmichael Road. Her other works included public, residential and industrial buildings, such as the Khatau mills in Borivali, and St. Stephen's Church at Cumballa Hill. At J.J, Perin is believed to have argued during a debate, "If men were compelled to do housekeeping, they would realise how avoiding cornices, carved ornament and other dust-traps was an advance." In 1936, when Perin made the news for securing a government diploma in Architecture, the first Indian woman to qualify, an anonymous letter in the Times of India praised the 23-year-old for stepping "out" of her home for the benefit of those women whose lives are spent "in" the home. "A woman architect would not make the mistake, I am sure, as the architect of the building I live in has done, of thinking that families have stopped having babies," wrote Housewife, adding that her "expensive" house in a "first-class neighbourhood" lacked even "the tiniest verandah" for her to air her kids' clothes. Perin's first bungalow on Carmichael Road with its deep verandahs and long balconies must have pleased the nameless mother.
Perin's interests ranged from the piano to hockey, gardening and the study of snakes in the Haffkine's institute in Bombay. She married businessman Ardeshir Bhiwandiwalla and moved to Pali Hill in Bandra.
# Arrondissement of Aalst

The Arrondissement of Aalst (Dutch: Arrondissement Aalst; French: Arrondissement d'Alost) is one of the six administrative arrondissements in the Province of East Flanders, Belgium. It forms the Judicial Arrondissement of Dendermonde together with the Arrondissements of Dendermonde and Sint-Niklaas.

## History

The Arrondissement of Aalst was created in 1818 by the merging of the canton of Aalst from the Arrondissement of Dendermonde with the cantons of Geraardsbergen, Herzele, Ninove and Zottegem from the Arrondissement of Oudenaarde. When the language border was determined in 1963, part of the then municipality of Twee Akren, in the Arrondissement of Soignies, was added to the arrondissement.
In 1977, the then-municipality of Sint-Maria-Oudenhove ceased to exist when merged with the municipalities of Zottegem and Brakel. As a result, the part of Sint-Maria-Oudenhove which was merged with Brakel was ceded to the Arrondissement of Oudenaarde.

## Municipalities

The Administrative Arrondissement of Aalst consists of the following municipalities:
* Aalst
* Denderleeuw
* Erpe-Mere
* Geraardsbergen
* Haaltert
* Herzele
* Lede
* Ninove
* Sint-Lievens-Houtem
* Zottegem
# Charles Ancillon

Charles Ancillon (28 July 1659 – 5 July 1715) was a French jurist and diplomat.

## Life

Ancillon was born in Metz into a distinguished family of Huguenots. His father, David Ancillon (1617–1692), was obliged to leave France on the revocation of the Edict of Nantes, and became pastor of the French Protestant community in Berlin.
Ancillon studied law at Marburg, Geneva and Paris, where he was called to the bar. At the request of the Huguenots at Metz, he pleaded its cause at the court of King Louis XIV, urging that it should be excepted in the revocation of the Edict of Nantes, but his efforts were unsuccessful, and he joined his father in Berlin. He was at once appointed by Elector Frederick III "juge et directeur de colonie de Berlin." He also became the first headmaster of Französisches Gymnasium Berlin. Before this, he had published several works on the revocation of the Edict of Nantes and its consequences, but his literary capacity was mediocre, his style stiff and cold, and it was his personal character rather than his reputation as a writer that earned him the confidence of the elector.
In 1687 Ancillon was appointed head of the so-called Academie des nobles, the principal educational establishment of the state; later on, as councillor of embassy, he took part in the negotiations which led to the assumption of the title of "King in Prussia" by the elector. In 1699 he succeeded Samuel Pufendorf as historiographer to the elector, and the same year replaced his uncle Joseph Ancillon as judge of all the French refugees in the Margraviate of Brandenburg.
Ancillon is mainly remembered for what he did for education in Brandenburg-Prussia, and the share he took, in co-operation with Gottfried Leibniz, in founding the Academy of Berlin. Of his fairly numerous works the most valued is the "Histoire de l'etablissement des Francais refugies dans les etats de Brandebourg" published in Berlin in 1690.

## Family

* Friedrich Ancillon, his grandson, a Prussian historian and statesman
# Quasar (song)

"Quasar" is a song by American alternative rock band the Smashing Pumpkins and the opening track of their eighth studio album Oceania, released on June 19, 2012, written and produced by frontman Billy Corgan and coproduced by Bjorn Thorsrud.

## Music and lyrics

"Quasar" features wall of sound and delay effects along with drop-D tuned guitarwork. Lyrically, the song deals with spiritual themes. A central theme throughout the lyrics is the search for "God", or faith. This search for God and spiritual truth or direction is conveyed in lyrics such as "Fated One, hold me down... ...Do I know you?" As well, the song shows the vast diversity of Billy Corgan's spirituality, referencing the Christian God, the disciple Mark, the Hindu God Krishna, and referring to the ineffable name of God used in the Hebrew Bible. Ironically, all of these references appear in the same verse; "God, right on!/Krishna, right on!/Mark, right on!/Yod He Va He Om!", with "Yod He Va He" referring to the Hebrew letters which represent the ineffable name; YHVH.

## Critical reception

"Quasar" received mostly positive reviews. Joseph Viney of Sputnikmusic described the song as "a rambunctious, wailing beast of a song with a number of different speeds and moods". Rick Florino of Artistdirect praised the song, declaring that it is "one of the band's heaviest and most hypnotic gems ever". He also eulogized drumming parts of Mike Byrne, Nicole Fiorentino's basslines and Jeff Schroeder's fuzzed-out guitar work, along with Billy Corgan's vocal style. The guitar work of the song was also compared to those of Television by Thomas Conner [de] of The Chicago Sun. He also described the song's style as "Earthy Deep Purple, meet heavenly Kula Shaker".
Many critics noted the resemblances between "Quasar" and previous Smashing Pumpkins songs. Jayson Greene of Pitchfork Media compared the song's introductory riff to those of "Cherub Rock". The same comparison was also made by Michael Nelson of Stereogum, Evan Rytlewski of The A.V. Club and Rob Harvilla of Spin. Iann Robinson of CraveOnline similarly analogized the riff to "Bullet with Butterfly Wings", while contrasting "Quasar" with its vocals and underlying guitar parts, which make it "less vitriolic and more fist pumping". Matt Collar of AllMusic likened the song's spiritual lyrics to those of another Pumpkins song, "Siva". Enio Chiola of PopMatters described the song as a "psychedelic approach to hard rock" and "a God-themed anthem", while inferring from the song that the album "seems like nothing new from the overwrought percussion heavy loudness that was Zeitgeist". Dan Martin of NME referred to the song as "something approaching QOTSA channelling Zep's 'Whole Lotta Love'".
