# Independence Day (Uganda)

Independence Day in Uganda is a state holiday celebrated on October 9 every year. It celebrates Uganda's independence from the United Kingdom in 1962.

## History

Explorer Henry Stanley discovered Uganda in 1875 which was divided into two kingdoms at the time. In 1888, Uganda came under the control of the British East Africa Company. After World War II, native Ugandans were allowed to serve in government, and by 1955, half the members of the legislative council were Ugandans. The Ugandan Constitutional Conference was held in London in September 1961, organized to pave the way for Ugandan independence. At the end of the conference on October 9, Uganda officially became an independent nation.

## Celebrations

Celebrations are held throughout Uganda and activities are designed to promote the nation. Performances are held by well-known artists. There are also cultural demonstrations that include traditional festivals. In 2017, Uganda celebrated their 55th anniversary of Independence.

### Trooping of the Colour and military parade

A military parade is held annually at the Kololo Ceremonial Grounds in Kampala. The ceremony normally begins at 10:30 after the arrival of the President of Uganda. The president then takes the national salute while "Oh Uganda, Land of Beauty" is played by the massed bands. The President of Uganda then inspects the guard of honour. After the inspection is finished, the band plays a slow march followed with a quick march as the lone drummer then breaks away to take his position beside the number one guard to play the drummers call, signalling to the officers of guard of honour to take positions to receive the colour.
The escort for the colour then marches off to receive the colour which is located in the center of the Ceremonial Grounds. Three officers then retrieve the colour and order the escort to the colour to presents arms for the national salute (The first verse of the Ugandan national anthem). Then the escort for the colour marches off in a slow march to the tune of the British Grenadier Guards. After the guardsmen get back to their positions, the president begins the inspection of the whole parade. The national colours are then raised on the main flagpole.
The president then delivers a holiday address, followed by religious leaders taking the central podium to pray for the nation. The parade commander then orders the parade to begin with a slow march, followed by a quick march.

# Independent Order of Odd Fellows in Sweden

The Independent Order of Odd Fellows in Sweden (IOOF), is a part as a grand lodge of the non-political and non-sectarian Independent Order of Odd Fellows, made up of people of good character who have a desire to promote universal harmony and are ready to exercise works of charity and benevolence, specially to those in need.

## History in Sweden

The Independent Order of Odd Fellows came to Sweden when two businessmen who were members of the Odd Fellows in Copenhagen, Denmark, took the initiative to open a lodge. The Scania Lodge No. 1 was instituted in Malmö on October 29, 1884. The second lodge, Veritas Lodge No. 2, was then established in Trelleborg, also in Skåne. At that time, both lodges were still under the jurisdiction of the IOOF Grand Lodge of Denmark. On August 1, 1888, Amicitia Lodge no. 3 was instituted in Malmö under the jurisdiction of the Sovereign Grand Lodge in the United States. From this lodge, other lodges were also established such as John Ericsson Lodge no. 4 in Stockholm on July 20, 1892, Concordia Lodge no.5 in Eslöv on November 4, 1893, and Linnea Lodge no. 8 in Ystad on November 18, 1894. Holmia Lodge no. 6 Holmia in Stockholm was formed in March 1894 and Westmania Lodge no.7 in Västerås on October 27, 1894. On July 8, 1895, the Grand Lodge for the Kingdom of Sweden was instituted on July 8, 1895. The first "Storsire" installed was Wilhelm Laurentz, a member of Lodge No. 4 John Ericsson.
Today, the Swedish Odd Fellow Order occupy a leading position in terms of membership with over 40,000 members and about 272 lodges. The encampment branch is also very strong in Sweden with 23 odd fellow and 13 Rebekah encampments totaling 40,000 members. There are no mixed lodges and patriarchs militant do not exist. There is also a great number of clubs and associations within the framework of the IOOF of Sweden with all kinds of objects from socialisation to providing poor children with summer homes. Moreover, Odd Fellows of Sweden was entrusted to reintroduce Odd Fellowship in Poland and two Odd Fellows lodges and 1 Rebekah lodge were quickly established. The Rebekah movement is fast growing in members.

The Seven Sacraments refers to two series of paintings of the seven sacraments by the French painter Nicolas Poussin.

## First series

Painted between 1637 and 1640, the first series was commissioned by Cassiano dal Pozzo in the second half of the 1630s and was sold to the Dukes of Rutland in 1784. One of the seven, Penance, was destroyed in a fire at the Rutlands' Belvoir Castle in 1816, and Baptism was acquired by the National Gallery of Art in Washington DC in 1939, where it still resides. The remaining five were still at Belvoir Castle at the time when Anthony Blunt wrote his catalogue in 1966, and then were on loan to the National Gallery in London until November 2010, when all five of these paintings were taken off show prior to the attempted sale of Ordination on 8 December that year. Ordination was ultimately purchased by the Kimbell Art Museum for US$24.3 million and was displayed for the first time there on September 14, 2011. In 2013 the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge purchased Extreme Unction. In January 2023, an export licence was issued for Confirmation, which was sold abroad. In 2024 the National Gallery in London acquired Eucharist. Marriage remains in the collection of the Trustees of the Duke of Rutland’s 2000 Settlement, and is currently on loan to the National Gallery in London

# Seth Thomas (clockmaker)

Seth Thomas (1785 — 1859) was an American clockmaker and a pioneer of mass production at his Seth Thomas Clock Company.

## Biography

Thomas was born in Wolcott, Connecticut, in 1785. He was apprenticed as a carpenter and joiner, and worked building houses and barns. He started in the clock business in 1807, working for clockmaker Eli Terry. Thomas formed a clock-making partnership in Plymouth, Connecticut, with Eli Terry and Silas Hoadley as Terry, Thomas & Hoadley.
In 1810, he bought Terry's clock business, making tall clocks with wooden movements, though he chose to sell his partnership in 1812, moving in 1813 to Plymouth Hollow, Connecticut, where he set up a factory to make metal-movement clocks. In 1817, he added shelf and mantel clocks. By the mid-1840s, he changed over to brass from wooden movements. He made the clock that is used in Fireman's Hall. He died in 1859, whereupon the company was taken over by his son, Aaron, who added many styles and improvements after his father's death. The company went out of business in 2009.

## Death and legacy

Thomas died on January 29, 1859, in Plymouth Hollow, Connecticut, and was interred at the Hillside Cemetery. In 1875, the town's Plymouth Hollow district was renamed Thomaston in Thomas's memory.

# Shadowland Theatre

Shadowland Theatre is a community arts theatre and collective of visual and theatre artists on Toronto Island. It is a professional, not-for-profit theatre company and registered charity, incorporated in 1994.

## History

The arts performance company Shadowland (legal name, Shadowland Repertory Company) was founded in 1982 by Whitney Smith and Victor Coleman with a mandate of producing musicals using shadow puppetry and other alternative theatrical media. The company was named after the early Hollywood screen monthly, Shadowland (magazine). The company's first production, Radio Ghost, a musical about the fictional meeting of Canadian radio inventor Reginald Fessenden and radio diva Jessica Dragonette, was co-written by Smith and Coleman and toured artist-run centres across Canada.
During the World Stage in 1982, the British company Welfare State International worked in collaboration with the Toronto Island community to produce the Tempest on Snake Island. Inspired by this production, Island residents Smith, Sarah Miller and Jerry Englar created proposals that raised funds for a second Shadowland production, along the same lines, to be part of the city's 1984 sesquicentennial celebrations. Welfare State principals Boris and Maggie Howarth were hired to assist and the result was Island Follies, a historical fantasia.
In 1985, Smith and Coleman handed over the company to the key group of Toronto Island artists who worked on the show – Kathleen Doody, Leida Englar, Jerry Englar, Brad Harley and Sarah Miller. The company was eventually renamed Shadowland Theatre.
Shadowland's early development was significantly influenced by Welfare State's format of professional artists engaging communities in collective performance, and this method has become the backbone of Shadowland's way of working ever since. Other major influences are Bread and Puppet Theater, Peter Minshall and Trinidad Carnival (leading to many years of involvement in Caribana parades) and ongoing working relationships with many Caribbean artists. These influences have contributed to Shadowland's bold and visually distinctive form of theatre and performance events. In the past decade the theatre has created signature processional outdoor theatre performances and collaborated with a wide range of communities and artists from many disciplines.

Seven Is the Number is a 2006 album by American folk duo Dave Carter and Tracy Grammer. It was the duo's final recording, released over four years after Carter's unexpected death due to a heart attack in July 2002.
Nine of the songs were previously recorded by Carter for his 1995 solo release, Snake Handlin' Man (now out of print). These songs were re-recorded along with two new Dave Carter songs, "Seven Is the Number" and "Gas Station Girl" in December 2001. Unlike the duo's previous two albums, Tracy Grammer does not sing lead vocals on any of the songs. As with their first album together, When I Go, her role on this recording is more that of a supporting musician adding harmony to Carter's lead vocals and solid instrumental work on fiddle, mandolin and guitar.

# Indooroopilly Island Conservation Park

The Indooroopilly Island Conservation Park is a protected conservation park that is located on an island in the Brisbane River, in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. The 6.34-hectare (15.7-acre) island park is the site of one of Australia's largest flying fox colonies, located 7 kilometres (4.3 mi) west of the Brisbane central business district near the suburb of Indooroopilly.
Vegetation on the island consists of two species of mangroves and forest red gum eucalyptus trees. Weeds pose a threat to the ecology of the island and the survival of the flying fox colony. In summer, the island may contain as many as several hundred thousand flying foxes. Other species include several species of birds, including bush turkeys, as well as snakes. The island is significant to the local Aboriginal people, the Yugara people.
