# Critonia

Critonia is a genus of flowering plants in the tribe Eupatorieae of the family Asteraceae.
The most notable trait that characterizes the genus is the presence of pellucid punctations caused by internal secretory pockets of the leaves - to be seen these must be viewed with a hand lens while holding the leaf up to light in most species of the genus. Most species of Critonia also have smooth opposite leaves, a shrubby habit, unenlarged style bases, relatively few (3-5) flowers per head, and imbricate involucres.

## Species

The genus is native to Mexico, Central America, South America, and the West Indies.

# Craiglon Bridge Halt railway station

Craiglon Bridge Halt railway station may have served the Craig-Lon Colliery and its workers near Pembrey, but this business was closed in the 1930s. It continued to serve the inhabitants of the Lando area between 1932 and 1953 and was one of several basic halts opened on the Burry Port and Gwendraeth Valley Railway in Carmarthenshire, Wales. A firing range was located nearby in WWII.

## History

The station was opened on 1 February 1932 by the Great Western Railway on the Kidwelly and Burry Port section of the line and was closed by the British Transport Commission in 1953 with the last passenger train running on Saturday 19 September 1953. It was on the southern section of the Burry Port and Gwendraeth Valley Railway with Pembrey located to the south and Pinged to the north.
A public house, the Butchers' Arms, stood across the road bridge to the west. The station is shown as open in 1945 - 1947 after the Craig Lon colliery had been closed. By 1951 - 1961 the station is shown as closed. The railway was originally a freight only line, but stations were established due to pressure from the public.
Craig-lon Colliery had opened in the 18th century, was extended in the 19th and joined with others in 1918 to form the Pembrey Collieries Ltd but closed in the 1930s. In WWII part of the site was used as a firing range.
The line had been built on the course of an old canal with resulting tight curves, low bridge clearance and a tendency to flooding. The freight service continued for coal traffic until 1996 by which time the last of the local collieries had closed down.

## Infrastructure

The station had a one single carriage length wooden platform on the western side of this single track line with a small shelter. The halt lay slightly to the north of the road bridge. The station had no public sidings, but a single siding exchange freight facility was present to the south with an exchange siding for Craig or Graig Lon Colliery and a track ran up to the Craig Lon colliery. The overbridge remains, once a canal bridge prior to the railway and cyclepath and walkway.
The Kidwelly route was used for coal trains, resulting in the lifting of track between Trimsaran Road and Burry Port by 2005.

## Services

The station was open for use by the general public and by miners from Craig Lon colliery.

## Remnants

The section of the old line between Burry Port and Craiglon Bridge Halt is now a footpath and cycleway, however the old entrance to the halt is still in use.

# Stuart Range, South Australia

The Stuart Range is a low upland in central South Australia, extending about 170 kilometres (110 mi) with a north-west to south-east alignment and passing within 10 kilometres (6.2 mi) to the south-east of Coober Pedy.

## Name

The range is named after John McDouall Stuart, the first European explorer to pass through the area, in 1858.

## Formation

During the Late Cretaceous and Tertiary, central Australia experienced crustal compression resulting in very broad, low-amplitude folding, and the Stuart Range formed on a basement upwarp.
Underlying the Stuart Range, the folded sediments include the Early Cretaceous (Aptian-Albian) Bulldog Shale, consisting of grey marine mudstones. Where the Bulldog Shale has been exposed at the surface for long periods it has been subjected to deep chemical weathering, resulting in bleaching and the "multi-hued, picturesque colouration" found in the Arckaringa-Stuart Range landscape.
The prolonged chemical weathering also dissolved silica which, transported through the regolith by the movement of groundwater, precipitated as the ambient conditions changed, forming silcrete (a type of duricrust), with the silica forming a secondary cement binding the sediment grains into sheets of hard, indurated rock, generally parallel to the land surface.
This occurred at deeper levels, at the intersection with the groundwater table (forming groundwater silcrete), or close to the surface, within the soil profile (forming pedogenic silcrete). Groundwater silcretes typically formed in more localised, topographically lower settings such as valley bottoms and slopes, whereas pedogenic silcrete tended to form extensive sheets over very large areas. Over long periods of time, as the landscape was lowered further by weathering and erosion, the silcrete became exposed at the surface as a lag gravel, an armoured carapace of gibbers (also known as a desert pavement), protecting the weaker regolith below from mechanical erosion. The resulting landscapes are relatively flat, undulating plains with low relief.
Throughout the Tertiary the Stuart Range has been an important palaeodrainage divide, between the Eucla and Lake Eyre basins.
In places where fluvial erosion has been more active, gullies have dissected the palaeosurface of the upland, forming a characteristic tableland topography where a continuing process of scarp retreat leaves behind mesas and buttes, which persist until their residual silcrete capping is finally lost.

# Credo BC 11

Credo BC 11 is of Hungarian minibus production from 1999 to 2001 with a length of 9.5 m and 10.7 m. Buses were equipped with 176 kW Iveco Tector engines. They had drum brakes of the Rába 501 type at the front of the vehicle and the Rába 106 at the rear. There was no low-floor version of these buses. The bus is very similar to the Credo EC 11 type bus, both externally and internally. It differs only in the number of doors. There are one single-leaf door in the front and rear of the vehicle and one double-leaf door in the middle of the vehicle. They started to be delivered to Bratislava at the end of 1999 under the name SOR B9.5.

## Description

The body of the bus is panel and semi-self-supporting, its skeleton is made of steel and is welded to the bus chassis. There is one single-leaf door in the front and rear of the vehicle and one double-leaf door in the middle of the vehicle for boarding and alighting passengers, which are also used for boarding with stroller or wheelchair. The door operates on a pneumatic drive from ISAF. The interior of the bus is covered with a non-slip floor. Ventilation is provided by ceiling fans and heating by hot water radiators.
All vehicles have the BUSE information system installed to report stops with a red LED display. The first three series of this bus were equipped with a digital clock in the driver's cab, but their time was distorted, as the clock was not connected to the on-board computer. Since the fourth series, all buses have been equipped with yellow bands in the front of the bus, which defined the forbidden space for passengers to stay. Since the sixth series, all buses have been equipped with a stop reporting system. From the seventh series, the buses began to be equipped with another folding seat in place for a stroller.

# Channel 73

Channel 73 was formerly used by a handful of television stations in North America which broadcast on 824-830 MHz. It was removed from television use in 1983 and the frequencies reassigned to analog mobile telephony.
As higher frequencies were less able to diffract around terrestrial obstacles, very few stations originated on channel 73. The channel was available when the UHF TV band opened in 1953, but the few who did use UHF 73 initially soon moved to lower frequencies or went dark:
* WFMJ-TV (NBC Youngstown) was launched on March 8, 1953, on channel 73. The station moved to its current channel, 21, on August 7, 1954.
* WLOK-TV (NBC Lima, Ohio) broadcast on channel 73 from April 18, 1953, until December 8, 1954. On April 24, 1955, the station became WIMA-TV, moving to channel 35. It is now WLIO, digital VHF 8.
* WTVU 73 in Scranton, Pennsylvania originally broadcast from August 17, 1953, to July 1, 1955 (1kW TPO) as an independent and (very briefly) as a DuMont affiliate; it is no longer operational.
For much of the history of UHF TV broadcasting in the United States, channel 70–83 served primarily as a "translator band" for repeater transmitters filling gaps in coverage for existing stations:
* KTVX-TV (ABC Salt Lake City) rebroadcaster K73BE Logan, Utah moved to K45GL channel 45.
* KWGN-TV (CW Denver) rebroadcaster K73AF Rawlins, Wyoming moved to K56AV channel 56.
* KKTV (CBS Colorado Springs) rebroadcaster K73BV Springfield, Colorado moved to K66CW channel 66.
* KNME-TV (PBS Albuquerque) rebroadcaster K73AL Truth or Consequences, New Mexico moved to K17BH channel 17.
* KOAT-TV (ABC Albuquerque) rebroadcaster K73CG Alamogordo, New Mexico moved to K34CR channel 34.
* KOCO-TV (ABC Oklahoma City) rebroadcaster K73BJ Mooreland, Oklahoma moved to K63CF channel 63.
* KSAZ-TV (Fox Phoenix) rebroadcaster K73CD Flagstaff, Arizona moved to K48GI channel 48.
* KREM-TV (CBS Spokane) rebroadcaster K73AP Quincy, Washington moved to K21AJ channel 21.
* KTCA-TV (PBS Minneapolis-St. Paul) rebroadcaster K73AI Redwood Falls, Minnesota moved to W64AC channel 64.
* KVAL-TV (CBS Eugene) rebroadcaster K73AQ Florence, Oregon moved to K58CW channel 58.
* KVII-TV (ABC Amarillo) rebroadcaster K73BK Gruver, Texas moved to K42CF channel 42.
* KXLY-TV (ABC Spokane) rebroadcaster K73BA East Wenatchee, Washington moved to K53DN channel 53.
* WITF-TV (PBS Harrisburg) rebroadcaster W73AH Chambersburg, Pennsylvania moved to W38AN channel 38.
* WNEP-TV (ABC Scranton) rebroadcaster W73AC Clarks Summit, Pennsylvania moved to W14CO channel 14.
In Auburn, Indiana, 3ABN affiliate W26DH-D formerly numbered its digital subchannels in a 73.x virtual channel pattern; the station had no ties to the historical UHF channel 73. W26DH-D is now using 26 as its virtual channel.

# Chaga (McDonald novel)

Chaga (published as Evolution's Shore in the United States) is a 1995 science fiction novel by British author Ian McDonald. It was released in the United Kingdom on 12 October 1995. Told through the eyes of journalist Gaby McAslan, the novel explores the catastrophic effects of an alien flora, dubbed the "Chaga", which is brought to Kenya by a meteor in what has become known as the Kilimanjaro Event.
McDonald said of the novel:
   The image of the unstoppable wave of transformation was nicked from The Wrath of Khan: it's the Genesis device, slowed down, and once I had that, it became a rich source of metaphors: for colonialism, new technology, globalisation, change, death. If the Chaga is colonialism, it's a unique kind that allows the people of the poor South to use and transform it to meet their needs and empower themselves: it's a symbiosis.
Chaga was nominated for the British Science Fiction Association Award for Best Novel (1995), and the John W. Campbell Memorial Award for Best Science Fiction Novel (1996).
