# Douglas Self

Douglas Self is a British electronics engineer and author with a particular interest in audio. He received a first class honours degree in engineering from Cambridge University, and then studied psychoacoustics at Sussex University. He is the author of six books on audio electronics, published by Focal Press. He has also contributed many articles to Wireless World magazine, some of which were compiled into a book along with articles by Peter Baxandall.
He is a member of the Audio Engineering Society and has taken out a number of audio-related patents, including for a "crossover displacement circuit".
He has worked with several major companies, including Cambridge Audio, TAG-McLaren Audio, and Soundcraft Electronics. Circuit Cellar website described him as a 'renowned audio specialist' when discussing a design he created for Elektor magazine. He developed the concept, accompanied with a practical design, of a "blameless" amplifier in which all the main sources of distortion for a pure Class B amplifier are reduced to negligible levels, to challenge the notion that such a topology is not suitable for Hi-Fi audio.
Self's books have been well received. His Audio Power Amplifier Design Handbook was recommended by Walt Jung and described as "famous" by audio website hifisonix. The second edition of his Small Signal Audio Design received a very positive review in Sound on Sound magazine.

# Downer College

Downer College (previously Wisconsin Female College) was a women's college in Fox Lake, Wisconsin, chartered in 1855 and opening in September 1856.

## History

It was founded in 1854 as Wisconsin Female College under the auspices of the Wisconsin Baptist Convention to prepare women for missionary service. It was poorly funded, and was reorganized in 1863, with control passing to the village of Fox Lake. For a while it operated as Fox Lake Seminary and was co-educational. In 1883 Judge Jason Downer of the Wisconsin Supreme Court, a strong advocate of educational opportunities for women, died and left the college $80,000, putting the school on a firmer foundation. In 1889, its name was changed to Downer College in honor of trustee and benefactor Jason Downer.

## Merger

In July, 1895, Downer merged with Milwaukee College to form Milwaukee-Downer College under the presidency of Milwaukee College's Ellen Clara Sabin. A new site was purchased on a tract of about ten acres on the northern end of the city of Milwaukee, about half-way between Lake Michigan and the Milwaukee River.

# Double Trouble (Barry Guy and the London Jazz Composers' Orchestra album)

Double Trouble is an album by Barry Guy and the London Jazz Composers' Orchestra. Documenting a large-scale, 46-minute composition by Guy, it was recorded in April 1989 in Zürich, Switzerland, and was released in 1990 by Intakt Records.
The title refers to the fact that the work was originally conceived as a double concerto for pianists Howard Riley and Alexander von Schlippenbach, joined by the combined forces of the London Jazz Composers' Orchestra and the Globe Unity Orchestra. A second recorded realization of the piece can be found on Double Trouble Two, released by Intakt in 1998.

## Reception

| AllMusic | |
| The Penguin Guide to Jazz | |
In a review for AllMusic, Brian Olewnick noted that the album "gives a fine example of what this group could do." He commented: "Guy deploys his 18-piece orchestra in ever-shifting groupings and conjures forth a wide-ranging array of thematic material that still coalesces into a satisfying whole... A superb recording... Very highly recommended."
The authors of The Penguin Guide to Jazz Recordings wrote: "the piece has a tremendous centrifugal coherence that balances the apparently anarchic but highly organized behaviour of soloists and section-players."
Writing for Dusted Magazine, Tim Daisy stated that Double Trouble was "an access point into a new world of sound" for him, and praised the playing of drummer Paul Lytton, who presented "a whole new vocabulary than what I was used to hearing; an amazing array of sounds on the drums."

# La Chapelle-d'Abondance

La Chapelle-d'Abondance (French pronunciation:) is a commune in the Haute-Savoie department in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region in south-eastern France.
Located in the northern French Alps, the village lies at the heart of a farming valley in Haute-Savoie. Nestling below the peaks of the "Cornettes de Bise" and the "Mont de Grange" which rise to almost 2,400 metres (7,900 ft), the Abondance Valley is a verdant mountain pasture amongst the Alpine Peaks of the Chablais Massif. The waters of the River Dranse run through the valley, enriching the fertile pasture land before flowing out into Lac Leman (Lake Geneva) near Evian. There are opportunities for rafting lower down the Dranse, where the sluice gates are opened each day to let a torrent of water down the river,
In the winter, La Chapelle d'Abondance is a winter sports playground. On the edge of the massive Portes du Soleil with access via the Panthiaz telecabine. La Chapelle d'Abondance has accommodation ranging from Gites to Chambre d'Hotes. Several independently run, fully catered ski chalets offering accommodation and meals.
La Chapelle d'Abondance has its own ski areas and ESF ski school for all levels:
Cret Beni ski area – height of top lift 1536 m: In the shadow of the Mont de Grange (2432 m) is the Cret Beni ski area. The pistes are north facing so ensure good snow conditions for skiing and boarding. There are mountain restaurants offering local cuisine.
Braitaz ski area – height of top lift 1792 m: A cable car gives access to the south facing ski area. It is possible to ski to Torgon in Switzerland or ski towards the Super Chatel domain and the vast Portes du Soleil ski area.
Nordic Skiing is also a popular pastime in the area. The valley has 35 km of Nordic Skiing linking Chatel, La Chapelle and Abondance. Equipment can be hired from the ski hire shops in the village.
There are also horse-drawn sleigh rides, sledging and husky dog sleds.
In summer, the network of more than 720 km (450 mi) of marked paths provides walkers the opportunity to explore easy riverside paths, or find tranquility and solitude high in the mountains above, where local ski lifts allow easy access to paths which cross the border between France and Switzerland.
Other activities include river fishing and riding the Portes du Soleil mountain bike trails.
Wildlife abounds in the valley from deer, wild boar and stags roaming the hills, to marmots sleeping on sun warmed mountain banks. There is a deer sanctuary tucked behind the old mill above the town center.

## Transport

La Chapelle-d'Abondance is located 70 km (43 mi), or 90 minutes' drive, from Geneva airport.

# La pastorella nobile

La pastorella nobile (The Noble Shepherdess) is an commedia per musica in two acts by Pietro Alessandro Guglielmi. The Italian libretto was by Francesco Saverio Zini.

## Performance history

La pastorella nobile was first performed at the Teatro del Fondo in Naples on 15 or 19 April 1788 with Irene Tomeoni, the creator of the title role of La bella pescatrice as the shepherdess Eurilla.
It was one of Guglielmi's most successful opera. Productions followed in Italy and elsewhere, including London, Paris, Madrid, Dresden and Prague, sometimes under the title L'erede di Belprato. In Germany it was given as Die Schöne auf dem Lande, Die adelische Schäferin and Das adelige Landmädchen.
In Vienna it was the most popular opera at the beginning of the 1790s. Adriana Ferrarese and Francesco Benucci, the first Fiodiligi and Guglielmo in Così fan tutte sang the roles of Donna Florida and Don Polibio, in a version that apparently enhanced the importance of Donna Florida, probably through a revision by Lorenzo Da Ponte, Mozart's librettist and Ferrarese's lover. However the later arrival on the scene of Tomeoni (to sing Eurilla) led to the restoration of the original version.

## Roles

# Dougall Parkway

Dougall Parkway is a municipal expressway in Windsor, Ontario. The expressway acts as an extension of Dougall Avenue and serves traffic heading towards the Windsor city-centre and the Detroit–Windsor tunnel. The road is named for former mayor of Windsor James Dougall.

## Route description

Dougall Parkway is a short 1.6 kilometres (0.99 mi) controlled-access highway that begins after connecting ramps split off of Highway 401. From the split, the expressway travels in a west-northwest direction having interchanges with 6th Concession Road and Howard Avenue. It is at the intersection when the expressway passes under Howard Avenue where it transitions into Dougall Avenue.

## History

Dougall Parkway was constructed as one of the two western forks of Highway 401 in the mid-1950s, connecting Highway 401 with Highway 3B (Howard Avenue). Somewhat confusingly, Dougall Parkway was officially numbered as Highway 401 along with the other leg of the fork, with Dougall Parkway being the north leg.
In 2008 to 2010, as part of the reconstruction of the section of Highway 401 from Dougall Parkway to Provincial Road, the Dougall Parkway split with Highway 401 was reconfigured, replacing a one-lane 1950s-era underpass tunnel with a modern high-speed flyover ramp.

## Exit list

The following table lists the major junctions along Dougall Parkway, as noted by the City of Windsor. The entire route is located in Windsor, Ontario.

# Ladies and Gentlemen (play)

Ladies and Gentlemen is a play by Charles MacArthur and Ben Hecht. The courtroom drama, inspired by a Hungarian play Twelve in a Box by Ladislaus Bus-Fekete, centers on the relationship that develops between two sequestered jurors, Miss Scott and Mr. Campbell, during a lengthy murder trial.
The play premiered in Santa Barbara, then ran for two weeks each in San Francisco and Los Angeles, with Helen Hayes and Herbert Marshall in the lead roles. It marked Hayes' return to the stage three years after her lengthy run in Victoria Regina.
The Broadway production was produced by Gilbert Miller and co-directed by MacArthur and Lewis Allen. The scenic design was by Boris Aronson. It opened at the Martin Beck Theatre on October 17, 1939 and closed on January 13, 1940 after running for 105 performances.
The play was filmed as Perfect Strangers in 1950.

## Critical reception

Of the play Time said, "[it] brings Near-Divinity Helen Hayes back to Broadway in her first new role there since December 1935. For this Broadway can rejoice, even though finding anything to rejoice at in the play itself is like looking for a needle in a Hayestack. After a two-month tryout, this thing of shreds & patches is still, like Gaul, divided into three parts — comedy, drama, romance — and, as in Gaul, the three parts are on very uncivil terms."
# Droid Assault

Droid Assault is a top-down scrolling shooter video game developed and published by Puppy Games and released on May 2, 2008 for Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux.
The game received mixed reviews from critics, praising its art style and gameplay but calling its length short.

## Gameplay

Droid Assault is heavily based on the gameplay of Paradroid. The game takes place in what is implied to be a spaceship where the player controls a basic model of robot. The player must take control of other robots in order to progress, but only if they have enough "transfer points" to hack into them. The old model then turns into an AI follower of the player and automatically targets enemies. The player can then change between any of the droids in their "robot army" at no cost. Ultimately, the player must face off against a boss robot that is stronger than usual.

## Plot

The game lacks a story, but its setting is implied through textual descriptions of the various droids. The game takes place sometime in the future, with the droids being used for purposes ranging from civilian to military.

## Reception

Droid Assault received mixed reviews from critics.
Silviu Stahie of Softpedia gave the game an 85/100, calling the concept "interesting" and the graphics beautiful, saying the only con was that sometimes the action on screen became too hectic.
Michael Krosta of 4Players gave the game a 66/100, concluding the game is "pleasantly" fast-paced and that the graphics are charming, but said that the levels became repetitive and the game itself didn't last long before its charm wore off.
Alec Meer of Rock, Paper, Shotgun called the game "more than enough pixel-robot goodness for the price" and a "defiantly old-school affair".
Totalbiscuit called the game "super fun" and "strongly recommended" the game in a review, though he criticized the control scheme as in need of improvement.
# Dragon Stadium, Southlake

Dragon Stadium is a stadium in Southlake, Texas, used primarily for American football games. The stadium serves the Carroll ISD, and is the home of the Carroll Senior High School Dragons football team. In 2003, the stadium was used by the Major League Soccer club Dallas Burn before the franchise moved to their permanent home at Toyota Stadium.
The stadium was built in 2001 at a final cost between $18 and $19 million, and shares land with the Transportation Offices for Carroll ISD. The first game played there was on September 7, 2001, a football game between the Haltom Buffalos and the Southlake Carroll Dragons. Before 2003, the stadium could seat 8,000 people, but when the Dallas Burn Soccer Club terminated their lease with Carroll ISD, they left bleachers that they had assembled in the East endzone, increasing capacity to approximately 11,000 people. The endzone bleachers are home to the Carroll Dragon Band and the Emerald Belle Drill Team at home games. The two-story press box is accessed via elevator, with the second floor housing operations and coaches' booths. The first floor is for administration and scouting personnel. The playing surface is artificial and uses many draining features due to how easily field can flood in heavy rains. In 2006, the home parking lot was doubled in size due to expected population growth. In August 2006, Carroll ISD's school board voted to hold all graduation ceremonies for Carroll Senior High at the stadium. The decision created controversy due to possible weather issues and heat concerns.
In 2006, Under Armour filmed part of a popular commercial called "Click-Clack" at Dragon Stadium. One of the opening scenes shows Green Bay Packers linebacker A. J. Hawk running across the turf at Dragon Stadium.
An interesting feature of the stadium is that, sitting on the north side of the stadium, it is possible to see another local high school football stadium: Mustang-Panther Stadium built in the 1970s, operated by the neighboring GCISD Grapevine-Colleyville Independent School District.
In June 2009, the Carroll ISD school board voted to issue bonds to pay for a $5 million renovation of the stadium. This renovation enclosed both east and west endzones. In 2020, another $4 million renovation was completed.
In 2023, the Carroll Athletic Department expanded student seating from one section three.
In June 2017, New England Patriots player Rob Gronkowski snuck into the stadium for a workout and posted on his social media.
# Lady Chen (Wusu)

Lady Chen (陳夫人, personal name unknown), formally the Lady Dowager Zhaoyi of Jin (晉國昭懿太夫人), was the mother of Qian Yuanguan (King Wenmu) (né Qian Chuanguan, name changed to Qian Yuanguan upon his succession to the throne), the second king of the Chinese state Wuyue of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period.
Little is known about Lady Chen's background. She was a concubine of Qian Chuanguan's father, Wuyue's first king Qian Liu (King Wusu) (whose wife was Lady Wu). She gave birth to his seventh son, Qian Chuanguan, in 887. Qian Chuanguan was designated Qian Liu's heir in 928, and that year, Qian Liu, with permission from Emperor Mingzong of Later Tang, whom Qian Liu was a vassal of, transferred the title of military governor (Jiedushi) of Zhenhai (鎮海, headquartered in modern Hangzhou, Zhejiang) and Zhendong (鎮東, headquartered in modern Shaoxing, Zhejiang) — which made up the vast majority of Wuyue's territory — to Qian Chuanguan, while remaining king himself. It is unclear what title, if any, Lady Chen carried during Qian Liu's lifetime.
Qian Liu died in 932, and Qian Chuanguan took over administration of the state (and changed his name to Qian Yuanguan), although for some time did not use the title of King of Wuyue but instead referred to himself by the military governor title (and, in succession, the Later Tang-bestowed titles of Prince of Wu and Prince of Yue) when reporting to Later Tang, to whom Wuyue was a vassal. (He would assume the king title only years after Lady Chen's death, in 937.) It was said that Qian Yuanguan was respectful and filially pious toward his mother. He also treated her family well, presenting them with many gifts, but never gave them offices on account of her. She died in the early Qingtai era (934-936) of the Later Tang emperor Li Congke and was posthumously created the Lady Dowager of Jin, with the posthumous name of Zhaoyi ("accomplished and benevolent").
