# Quartette, Nevada

Quartette or Quartette Mill or Quartette Landing, was a mining settlement, location of the stamp mill of the Quartette Mining Company, owner of the largest mine in the Searchlight Mining District and a steamboat landing on the Colorado River, in what is now Clark County, Nevada. It lay at an elevation of 646 feet.$^{:80,84,95,169}$

## History

This river settlement originated in 1900, with the decision of the directors of the Quartette Mining Company that it would be more profitable to crush their own ore than freight it 23 miles by wagon to Manvel, then ship it by rail from there to the smelter at Needles. No adequate supply of water being found near their mine, they decided to locate their 20 stamp mill and a cyanide plant on the west bank of the Colorado River and haul the ore the twelve miles to the mill from the mine by wagon. In May 1901 the company decided to build a 14-mile narrow gauge railroad to haul its ore to the landing.$^{:23,note13}$ During this period as the mill, steamboat landing and railroad were established, the mine had a post office called Quartette from September 15, 1900, to Sept. 15, 1902.
Building the railroad began with grading the route, in November 1901. The rails, the locomotive and the cars were delivered at Needles about the same time and were shipped up river by barge towed by a Colorado Steam Navigation Company steamboat. However within sight of the landing the barge stuck fast on a sandbar and could not be extracted over the next 3 months despite strenuous efforts to do so. Only the return of higher water on the river allowed the barge to be freed and landed at Quartette in February, 1902. Future rail shipments came by rail on the California Eastern Railway to Manvel, and then overland by wagon to Searchlight and the rail-line construction site. By March 6 miles of track had been laid and its locomotive and cars became operational, speeding construction. By May 1902 the railroad was completed, and the train ran twice a day carrying ore to the mill and returning with goods and passengers if boats had visited the landing at Quartette. This rail and steamer route became favored as it was the most rapid means of getting people and freight to and from Needles.$^{:848–849}$
In 1903, there was a strike that idled the railroad and the mines. During that time water was found that made it possible to set up milling at the mine and a new stamp mill was built. By 1906 the railroad had become idle and the old mill was relocated to the new mill site, making it a 40 stamp mill.$^{:18–19}$
On March 31, 1907, the Barnwell and Searchlight Railway reached Searchlight and the river landing was made obsolete. The rails of the Quartette railroad were taken up in 1910 and used to build the Yellow Pine Mining Company line between the Union Pacific Railroad line at Jean to the mining boomtown of Goodsprings.$^{:851,854}$

## The site today

The site of Quartette is now covered by Lake Mohave.

# Hytort process

The Hytort process is an above-ground shale oil extraction process developed by the Institute of Gas Technology. It is classified as a reactive fluid process, which produces shale oil by hydrogenation.
The Hytort process has advantages when processing oil shales containing less hydrogen, such as the eastern United States Devonian oil shales. In this process, oil shale is processed at controlled heating rates in a high-pressure hydrogen environment, which allows a carbon conversion rate of around 80%. Hydrogen reacts with coke precursors (a chemical structure in the oil shale that is prone to form char during retorting but has not yet done so). In the case of Eastern US Devonian shales, the reaction roughly doubles the yield of oil, depending on the characteristics of the oil shale and process.
In 1980, the HYCRUDE Corporation was established to commercialize the Hytort technology. The feasibility study was conducted by HYCRUDE Corporation, Phillips Petroleum Company, Bechtel Group and the Institute of Gas Technology.
# Spray II (SP-308)

USS Spray II (SP-308) was the proposed name and designation for a United States Navy World War I patrol vessel that the Navy never actually took over.

On 9 May 1917, she was ordered delivered to the U.S. Navy for World War I section patrol duty, but the Navy never actually took control of her and she remained in civilian hands.
Spray II was stricken from the Navy List in late 1918.
Spray II should not be confused with USS Spray (ID-2491), a naval trawler and minesweeper in commission from 1918 to 1919.

# Frank Waller (painter)

Frank Waller (12 June 1842, New York City - 9 March 1923, Morristown, NJ) was an American architect, Orientalist and landscape painter.

## Biography

His father was a drygoods merchant who died while Frank was still a boy.
From 1857 to 1861, he attended the New York Free Academy (now the City College of New York) where he studied commercial art. During the 1860s, he was employed in that capacity and painted in his spare time. In 1870, he began exhibiting at the National Academy of Design. That same year, he undertook a study trip to Europe and spent some time in Rome, studying with John Gadsby Chapman, who was then quite poor and dependent on support from his fellow expatriates.
He returned to New York in 1871, but left again, the very next year, to visit Egypt with the history painter, Edwin White. He developed a lifelong interest in the area; later becoming a member of the Egypt Exploration Society.
Always seeking to improve himself, he continued his studies, with Lemuel Wilmarth, and participated in the founding of the Art Students League of New York, visiting several art schools in Europe to report on their methods, and serving in various administrative capacities through the 1880s. He also exhibited frequently, at the Brooklyn Art Association and the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts, among others.
After 1885, he worked as an architect and joined the Architectural League of New York. Most of his designs were for country homes, but he also helped design the First National Bank of Cooperstown, New York. He also travelled, producing small oil sketches of the places he visited.
In 1895, he went to live in Morristown, New Jersey. After 1902, he gave up architecture and turned to landscape painting, which he would pursue until his death in 1923.

All About Jazz reviewer Karl Ackermann stated, "e.s.t. live in london asks that we once again consider the magnitude of this trio. Their body of work has helped to broaden the definition of jazz, as it has not been redefined again in the passing ten years. ... It is a trio that, a decade on, seems to be a once-in-a-lifetime experience. e.s.t. live in london is highly recommended and an essential for collectors who believe that jazz is meant to be a fluid, shifting genre". On the same site Geno Thackara noted "this splendid release should bring a ray of happiness to old and new listeners alike. e.s.t. live in London captures the band on a magical evening when everything went right". On London Jazz News, Adrian Pallant said "with e.s.t., there was always the sense of leaping ahead over conventional boundaries, each new release or gig introducing engaging sonic blends, all delivered with enthralling technical prowess. For aficionado or newcomer, e.s.t. live in London has it all, in glorious technicolor".​

# France in the Eurovision Song Contest 1970

France was represented at the Eurovision Song Contest 1970 with the song "Marie-Blanche", composed by Guy Bonnet, with lyrics by André-Pierre Dousset, and performed by Bonnet himself. The French participating broadcaster, Office de Radiodiffusion Télévision Française (ORTF), selected its entry through a seven-week televised show titled Musicolor. "Marie-Blanche" came in fourth place out of twelve, and received eight points at the contest.

## Before Eurovision
### National final

For 1970, after eight years of internal selections, Office de Radiodiffusion Télévision Française (ORTF) organized a televised national final which lasted seven weeks. A professional jury chose 16 out of the 143 songs submitted to go to the Saturday evening music show titled Musicolor which would choose the entrant for 1970. Musicolor consisted of four quarter-finals, two semi-finals, and a final with shows taking place each Saturday. Four songs were performed each week and were voted on by various juries representing the regional stations of ORTF. The juries could qualify one song to go to the next round.
By the fifth and sixth Saturdays, the juries had selected four songs to participate in the two semi-finals, with semi consisting of two songs. The winner of each semi-final went to the final round which was held on February 21, 1970 and hosted by Dany Danielle and Sylvain Deschamps. At the final, "Marie-Blanche" performed by Guy Bonnet won over "Olivier, Olivia" performed by Daniel Beretta and Isabelle Aubret.
