Department for Business, Innovation and Skills

Department for Business, Innovation and Skills
The Department for Business, Innovation and Skills (BIS) was a ministerial department of the United Kingdom Government created on 5 June 2009 by the merger of the Department for Innovation, Universities and Skills (DIUS) and the Department for Business, Enterprise and Regulatory Reform (BERR). It was disbanded on the creation of the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy on 14 July 2016.
Secretaries of State for Business, Innovation and Skills
The Permanent Secretary was Sir Martin Donnelly.

corporate governance
employment relations
export licensing
further education
higher education
innovation
insolvency
intellectual property
outer space
postal affairs
regional and local economic development

Nicholas Lea

Nicholas Lea (born Nicholas Christopher Herbert; June 22, 1962) is a Canadian actor known for his portrayal of Alex Krycek on The X-Files and of Tom Foss on Kyle XY.
Life and career
Lea was born in New Westminster, British Columbia. He attended Prince of Wales Secondary School (graduated 1980).
Lea's first major role was on the TV series The Commish where he played Officer Enrico Caruso from 1991 to 1994. It was during this time that he had a minor guest role in a first-season episode of The X-Files called "Gender Bender". The producers were impressed by his performance and when, in the second season, he auditioned for the role of turncoat FBI agent Alex Krycek, he was successful.
Lea guest starred in eleven episodes from 1994 to 1996 and became a popular character amongst the fans. Because of his character's willingness to switch sides, he was known as the 'ratboy'. In the season three episode "Apocrypha," Krycek was left to die in an abandoned missile silo with an alien ship. This allowed Lea to take a starring role in the series Once a Thief—which followed on from the 1996 John Woo film—alongside Ivan Sergei. The series was cancelled after one season. Lea continued to play Krycek, who became a nemesis not just of Mulder and Scully but particularly of A.D. Skinner (Mitch Pileggi).
Lea co-starred with Lau Ching-Wan, Theresa Lee and Bif Naked in the Hong Kong-Canadian film Lunch with Charles in 2001.
In 2006, Lea had a role on ABC Family's Kyle XY (26 episodes) playing Tom Foss, Kyle's tutor, and was one of the lead actors (playing Ethan McKaye) on the Canadian TV series Whistler. He was also that series' associate producer. He did not return to Whistler for its second season in 2007.
He has guest starred in shows such as NYPD Blue (3 episodes), Andromeda, Burn Notice, Sliders, Highlander: The Series, Judging Amy, CSI (4 episodes) (as Catherine Willows' boyfriend) and Men in Trees (10 episodes) (as Eric, the minister). Nicholas has also guest starred in the ABC remake of the sci-fi series V. He is also a member of the board of directors for the Lyric School of Acting in Vancouver.
Lea appeared in the film Guido Superstar: The Rise of Guido, starring, produced, and directed by Silvio Pollio, including Lea, John Cassini, Terry Chen, and Michael Eklund. The film screened at the 2010 Vancouver International Film Festival. In 2012 he portrayed Eliot Ness who formed the law enforcement group The Untouchables in the Supernatural episode "Time after Time". Lea had a minor role on Arrow as Mark Francis, who was Moira Queen's campaign manager. He appeared in three episodes.

Julian Cole

Julian Cole
Julian David Cole (April 2, 1925 – April 17, 1999) was an American mathematician. He is known for his groundbreaking work in mathematical applications to aerodynamics and transonic flow, and in non-linear equations more generally. He graduated 36 PhD students and won many of the most significant scientific honors over his career, including simultaneous election to the National Academy of Sciences and National Academy of Engineering in 1976.
Biography
Cole earned an undergraduate degree in engineering from Cornell, after which he entered Caltech as a graduate student. He worked with Hans Liepmann and Paco Lagerstrom, the latter his advisor, submitting a dissertation on transonic flow in 1949. Lagerstrom and Cole continued their work, having formed a small research group at GALCIT to better understand the mathematics of fluid flow. These two, along with Leon Trilling found that flows having weak shocks could be described by Burgers' equation, for which Cole later found a clever transformation to solve it. Cole continued to delve deeper into this topic for the next decade.
Cole took sabbatical in 1963–1964 at Harvard, where he wrote a book on this body of work: Perturbation Methods in Applied Mathematics.
Cole is the namesake of the Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics's Julian Cole Lectureship.

Dedun

Dedun (or Dedwen) was a Kushite or Nehasi (C-Group culture) god worshipped during ancient times in ancient Egypt and Sudan and attested as early as 2400 BC. There is much uncertainty about his original nature, especially since he was depicted as a lion, a role that usually was assigned to the son of another deity. Nothing is known of the earlier Kushite mythology from which the deity arose, however. The earliest known information in Egyptian writings about Dedun indicates that he already had become a god of incense by the time of the writings. Since at that historical point, incense was an extremely expensive luxury commodity, and Nubia was the source of much of it, he was quite an important deity. The wealth that the trade in incense delivered to Nubia led to his being identified by them as the god of prosperity and of wealth in particular.
Although he is mentioned in the Pyramid Texts of ancient Egypt as being a Nubian deity, there is no evidence that Dedun was worshipped by the Egyptians or that he was worshipped in any location north of Swenet (contemporary Aswan), which was considered the most southerly city of Ancient Egypt. Nevertheless, in the Middle Kingdom of Egypt, during the Egyptian rule over Kush, Dedun was said by the Egyptians to be the protector of deceased Nubian rulers and their god of incense, thereby associated with funerary rites.
Atlanersa, a Kushite ruler of the Napatan kingdom of Nubia, is known to have started a temple dedicated to the syncretic god Osiris-Dedun at Jebel Barkal.

Vossius ring

Vossius ring (also called Vossius's ring or Vossius' ring) is due to blunt trauma to the eye. When the eye is injured, a circular ring of fainted or stippled opacity is seen on the anterior surface of the lens due to brown amorphous granules of pigment lying on the capsule. It has the same diameter as the contracted pupil, and is due to impression of the iris on the lens as a result of the force of a concussion injury, which drives the cornea and iris backward.
It is named after German ophthalmologist Adolf Vossius, who first described the condition in 1906.
Differential Diagnosis
While typically caused by blunt trauma to the eye, Vossius rings can also be a sign of previous or active anterior uveitis. Inflammation in the anterior chamber can lead to Synechia (eye) in which the pupillary ruff adheres to the anterior lens surface. Once the synechia resolve, some pigment can remain on the lens leading to perceived blurring of bright lights. This is often exacerbated in low light conditions due to the pupil dilating, thus exposing more of the ring to the retina.

Jaap Metz

Jaap Metz
Jacob Jan "Jaap" Metz (6 August 1941 – 27 May 2016) was a Dutch politician. He was a member of the House of Representatives for the People's Party for Freedom and Democracy between 1982 and 1986. Before his time in office Metz was a journalist at De Telegraaf.
Career
Metz was born on 6 August 1941 in Amsterdam. After completing his primary and secondary education in Amsterdam Metz started working for the newspaper De Telegraaf in 1962. He started as financial-economic editor and later also worked on police news. He had a three-year stint as journalist at Algemeen Handelsblad from 1969 to 1972 and then returned to De Telegraaf where he became head of the newsservice. Metz quit his job in 1982 and became politically active in the municipal council of Opmeer in September. On 22 November he also became member of the House of Representatives for the People's Party for Freedom and Democracy.
Shortly before being sworn in as a member of the House of Representatives information surfaced on paid advice Metz had given to a real estate company while working for De Telegraaf. Metz allegedly influenced information that was published on the company in the newspaper and came to blows with fellow journalist Peter R. de Vries. Party fraction leader Ed Nijpels accepted Metz' explanation that the advice given did not concern core business of the company. Several months later newspaper De Tijd claimed Nijpels had been blackmailed by Metz, so that the latter could keep his seat in the House. Metz pressed charges of slander, defamation and insult against the newspaper. The charges were dropped two years later.
Metz remained a backbencher throughout his term in office, which ended on 3 June 1986. He died in Haarlem on 27 May 2016, aged 74.
