# Standard Open

Second Open or Standard Open (coded SO) is a British coach designation for open-saloon second class (later standard class) coaches with 2+1 abreast seating, usually seating 48 passengers. Second class coaches with more conventional 2+2 abreast seating were designated Tourist Standard Open (TSO) seating 64 passengers.
There were a number of variations. The majority (95) were built using the same body shell as the Mark 1 SK and TSO. When production started, these were classified as third class. There were also 15 "true" second-class coaches, also known as "Boat Seconds" as they were used on boat trains for continental destinations (European mainland railways still had three classes). These rare vehicles had an interior layout to almost first-class standards with 2+1 seating (total 48 seats) and a central door without vestibule. When the European railways agreed in 1956 to abolish third class, British Railways simply reclassified third-class vehicles as second class except for the special "Boat Seconds" which after some deliberation were finally reclassified as first class carriages in 1959. There was also a one-off experimental 39-seat SO built by BRCW as part of the Mark 1 new prototype scheme. In 1965 the new Mark 2 designs incorporated a small run of just 28 Mark 2a SO carriages.

# Lamina affixa

Lamina affixa is a layer of epithelium growing on the surface of the thalamus and forming the floor of the central part of lateral ventricle, on whose medial margin is attached the choroid plexus of the lateral ventricle; it covers the superior thalamostriate vein and the superior choroid vein. The torn edge of this plexus is called the tela choroidea.
On the surface of the terminal vein is a narrow white band, named the lamina affixa.
GDF-15/MIC-1 has been observed in lamina affixa cells.
# Silphium trifoliatum

Silphium trifoliatum, commonly known as whorled rosinweed, is a species of flowering plant in the family Asteraceae. It is native to the eastern United States, where it is found east of the Mississippi River. Its natural habitat is open, grassy areas such as prairies, river cobble bars, and roadsides. It is a tall perennial that produces heads of yellow flowers in mid-summer through fall.
This species is considered to be a variety of Silphium asteriscus by some authors. It can be distinguished by its smooth stems and leaves that are often in whorls of three. In contrast, S. asteriscus has scabrous to hispid stems and leaves, which are opposite or alternate. In addition, S. trifoliatum has eglandular pales (the bracts in the flower heads), while the pales of S. asteriscus are often glandular. There remains much disagreement about the best taxonomic treatment of the S. asteriscus complex.
# Shetland goose

The Shetland goose is a breed of domestic geese that originates in the Shetland Islands of Scotland. Like the other breeds of livestock native to the islands, the Shetland goose is small in stature, generally weighing between 12 and 14 pounds (5 and 6 kilos). They are very hardy and exceptionally good foragers, and are able to largely sustain themselves through grazing.

## History

The Shetland goose has been used by crofters to graze pastures. This was done to rid the grass of parasites, such as the liver fluke, which would prepare it for grazing by sheep.

## Characteristics

Like a few other goose breeds, including the Pilgrim and Cotton Patch, Shetlands are sexually dimorphic at hatch (called auto-sexing in poultry nomenclature), and can be differentiated on appearance alone. Ganders have entirely white plumage, while geese have a head, neck, and upper body with gray highlights and a white underbody. They generally mate for life, and are good parents. Shetland geese lay around 30 eggs a year, that are white in colour. The Shetland goose has a shorter bill, due to its natural ability to forage.
Shetlands were first exported to United States in 1997, by a farm in New York. They are not yet recognized by the American Poultry Association via admittance in the Standard of Perfection. The breed is currently being studied by the American Livestock Breeds Conservancy, which considers populations in North America to potentially be too low to maintain sufficient genetic diversity (in North America).

# Albert Hoffmann (horticulturist)

Albert Hoffmann (1846–1924) was a German rosarian.
He was one of the founders of the "Sangerhausen Rosarium" (now Europa-Rosarium) donating over 4000 seedlings from his own nursery for the newly established rosarium. His "Alice Hoffman" cultivar is named after his daughter. Rosarian Nicola Welter dedicated him his cultivar called "Albert Hoffmann". A memorial stone in his honor is installed at the Sangerhausen Rosarium.

# Silver City Water Works Building

The Silver City Water Works Building is a historic building located on Little Walnut Rd. in Silver City, New Mexico, United States. The building was constructed in 1887 to provide Silver City with a municipal water system. While the city had established an electrical system and telegraph connections, it lacked reliable drinking water and a fire prevention system, as an earlier attempt to build a water system was never completed. George H. Utter obtained a contract to supply water to Silver City in 1886, and he commissioned Michigan stonemason John Hill to build the water works. The sandstone water works is the only sandstone building from the 1800s in Silver City, as brick was a much more common building material. While the water system opened and initially operated successfully, by 1890 Utter was accused of supplying undrinkable water and failing to meet the city's expectations for service. East Coast investors Henry and Thomas Foster took over the water works in the ensuing years after an extended legal battle with Utter.
The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1984.

# 9 Vulpeculae

9 Vulpeculae is a star in the northern constellation of Vulpecula, located about 560 light years away based on parallax. It is visible to the naked eye as a faint, blue-white hued star with a baseline apparent visual magnitude of 5.01. The star is moving further from the Earth with a heliocentric radial velocity of +5 km/s.
This a B-type star with a stellar classification of B8 IIIn, where the 'n' notation indicates "nebulous" lines due to rapid rotation. It has a high rate of spin with a projected rotational velocity of 185 km/s. The star is radiating 216 times the Sun's luminosity from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 12,042 K. This is a suspected variable star of unknown type, ranging in magnitude from 4.99 down to 5.08.
9 Vulpeculae has two reported companions: component B, with a separation of 9.3" and magnitude 13.4, and C, with a separation of 108" and a magnitude of 12.5". Both are unrelated background objects.

# Frederick Merrifield

Frederick Merrifield (1831 – 28 May 1924, Brighton) was an English barrister, entomologist and campaigner for women's suffrage.
Merrifield was a London attorney and clerk to the County Council of East Sussex.
An expert on Lepidoptera, he was especially interested in the effect of temperature on the colour and patterning of butterflies, rearing larvae and pupae in controlled temperature incubators and recording the effect on the colouration of adults. Examples of his very many scientific papers on this subject are (1890). Systematic temperature experiments on some Lepidoptera in all their stages. Trans. Entomol. Soc. London, 131-59 and (1891). Conspicuous effects on the markings and colouring of Lepidoptera caused by exposure of the pupae to different temperature conditions. Trans. Entomol. Soc. London, 155-67. He was President of the Royal Entomological Society (1905-1906).
Frederick was a Liberal and attended meetings of the Reform League that campaigned for better 'representation of the working classes'. He and his wife Maria Merrifield (nee de Gaudrion, 1825-1894) were part of establishing the Brighton branch of the National Society for Women's Suffrage in 1872, along with Henry Fawcett and Millicent Fawcett and with Mrs Merrifield as treasurer. Frederick was also a member of the National Association for the Repeal of the Contagious Diseases Acts since the legislation adversely affected women. With his younger daughter, Flora Merrifield, he campaigned for women's suffrage in Lewes and was present at the formation of the Brighton branch of the Men's League for Women's Suffrage. After his death, he was described as being 'from the beginning...a stout supporter of women's suffrage'.
Frederick Merrifield's mother was the author and artist, Mary Philadelphia Merrifield and he assisted her with her work, along with his elder brother, the mathematician Charles Watkins Merrifield. In 1877, he was the chair of Brighton's School of Art, which later developed into the University of Brighton.
Frederick's eldest daughter Margaret de Gaudrion Verrall (1857-1916) became a spiritualist medium. Frederick was also a spiritualist, but lost respect for the medium Daniel Dunglas Home after claiming to have observed him cheat. At a séance in the house of the solicitor John Snaith Rymer in Ealing in July 1855, Merrifield observed that a "spirit-hand" was a false limb attached on the end of Home's arm. Merrifield also claimed to have observed Home use his foot in the séance room.
# Shimmer (novel)

Shimmer is a novel by Eric Barnes, published by Unbridled Books.

## Synopsis

Barnes has written the novel Shimmer (Unbridled Books, July 2009, ISBN 1-932961-67-4). A book about CEO Robbie Case, whose high tech company is built on a lie, Shimmer follows Robbie as he attempts to unwind the lie he has created. The fictional company, Core Communications, is a provider of high end networking services to mainframe computers. Along with his partner and cousin, Robbie has created an elaborate system that supposedly allows mainframe computers to communicate at impossibly fast speeds. However, the system does not work. It is actually built on a technical and financial Ponzi scheme that will fail if the company ever stops expanding.

## Reviews of Shimmer

"Case's slow but accelerating downward spiral drives the narrative.... The corporate intrigue should hook anyone fascinated by the collapse of Wall Street and the crimes of Bernie Madoff."—Publishers Weekly
"...a sheen of elegance and terror; one is reminded, in Barnes' language and locution, of Don DeLillo's scalpel-sharp delineation of American corporate culture and paranoia, and of David Foster Wallace's penetration into the heart of the relationship between human consciousness and rapidly changing technologies."—Fredric Koeppel, The Commercial Appeal
"I haven’t been able to get the people in the book out of my head.... Beautifully written, quiet and intense, Shimmer was absolutely riveting."
"The book moves at a breathtaking pace, but I was purposely slowing my reading to enjoy both the writing and the structure of the book. Shimmer is beautiful in the way that a collapsing building is; more beautiful, because throughout it you can cling to the hope that the building will somehow put itself back together."
"Robbie is one of those engagingly conflicted heroes who comes along from time to time, an essentially good man who knowingly perpetrated a swindle of epic proportions and who will now do whatever it takes to minimize the damage."—Booklist
"[T]his page turner isn't for techno geeks only. Bottom Line: Even the computer challenged reader will be wired into the intrigue."—Wanda McKinney, Southern Living
"[A] remarkable character study, unflinchingly probing the psyche of its flawed but compelling protagonist. [A]n insightful and incisive rendering of the kind of high-tech confidence man that it's impossible not to recognize. [A]s with … Delillo and Gibson, the technology, though high concept, is not the main subject of Barnes’ interest, except in the ways it transforms the characters. Eric Barnesis completely fearless." -- Benjamin Whitmer, INDenverTimes
"The real story of Shimmer is the interaction between the people of Core. An ode to good people who do bad things and who genuinely believe it's not always about the money. Sometimes it's personal."—Chris Scott, Chapter 16
"Shimmer is a 21st century thriller about technology and morality.... Shimmer's origins owe more to the dot-com bust."—Rich Fisher, Studio Tulsa, Tulsa Public Radio

# Watson's Crossing

Watson's Crossing (Manx: Crossag Watson) is a stop on the Manx Electric Railway on the Isle of Man.

## Location

Being a rural stop, it catering almost exclusively for local traffic. Due to the nature of the tramway's construction, the cars can stop and drop off almost anywhere and will do so within reason. For this reason a great number of localised stopping places have built up since the line was completed, many at the intersection of farmer's crossings like this one. The crossings/halts usually take the name of the farmer or the farm as is the case here.

## Naming

Unofficial halts such as this never appear in timetable materials or have nameboards fitted to show their names. Many do however now carry bus stop-type signs attached to traction poles, and these were fitted in line with then-management policy in 1999.
