In these 3 matches, he took 9 wickets at an average of 12.33, with best figures of 4/37. He left Nottinghamshire at the end of the 1967 season.

James Lorraine Geddes

James Lorraine Geddes (March 19, 1827 – February 21, 1887) was a soldier in India, a brigade commander in the Western Theater of the American Civil War, college administrator and professor, and military songwriter.
Biography
Geddes was born in Edinburgh, Scotland. In his boyhood he was taken to Canada, but in 1843 he returned to Scotland. He then studied at Calcutta in the British military academy, entered the British Army in the Royal Horse Artillery, and after distinguishing himself in the Punjab campaign in the First Anglo-Afghan War, particularly at the Khyber Pass. He returned to Canada and was commissioned a colonel in a regiment of cavalry. He married New York native Margaret Moore on October 14, 1856, in Yarmouth, Nova Scotia. In 1857 he resigned from the army and moved to the United States, settling in Vinton, Iowa, where he taught school.
In the American Civil War, Geddes served in the Union army, enlisting as a private in the 8th Iowa Infantry. He was promoted to captain and then lieutenant colonel, and after February 1862 as colonel of volunteers. He took part in the fighting at Shiloh, where he was wounded and captured. He was imprisoned for a time at Madison, Georgia, and in Libby Prison in Richmond, Virginia. After being exchanged, he fought at Vicksburg and Jackson. In October 1863, he was given command of a brigade and sent to Brownsville, Texas. Subsequently, he served as the provost marshal of Federal occupied Memphis, Tennessee, which he saved from seizure by Confederate cavalry under Nathan Bedford Forrest. He commanded a brigade in the Mobile Campaign and fought with distinction at the Battle of Spanish Fort. On January 13, 1866, President Andrew Johnson nominated Geddes for appointment to the grade of brevet brigadier general of volunteers, to rank from June 5, 1865, and the United States Senate confirmed the appointment on March 12, 1866.
After the war, Geddes was principal of the Iowa College for the Blind at Vinton, and until his death was connected with the Iowa College of Agriculture at Ames, being military instructor and cashier in 1870–1882, acting president in 1875–77, librarian in 1877–78, vice-president and professor of military tactics in 1880–82, and treasurer in 1884–87. He wrote a number of popular war songs, including The Soldiers' Battle Prayer and The Stars and Stripes.
He died at Ames, Iowa on February 21, 1887. He is buried in Evergreen, Cemetery, Vinton, Iowa.

أرتاتاما الأول

أرتاتاما الأول
كان أرتاتاما الأول ملكًا لمملكة ميتاني الحورية في بلاد الرافدين أواخر القرن الخامس عشر قبل الميلاد. وتزامن عهده مع عهدي الفرعونين المصريين أمنحتب الثاني وتحتمس الرابع.
لا يُعرف سوى القليل عن هذا الملك الذي لم يترك أي نقوش. يشار إلى أرتاتاما الأول في رسائل تل العمارنة على أنه السلف الذي أسس تحالفا مع فرعون مصر تحتمس الرابع. وفقًا للتفسير الحديث للمصادر النادرة المتاحة، وصل أرتاتاما الأول إلى السلطة عندما ضعفت مملكة ميتاني بشدة بسبب الغزو الحيثي. في مواجهة مخاطر خوض حرب على جبهتين الحيثيين في الشمال ومصر في الجنوب، اقترب أرتاتاما الأول من الفرعون المصري أمنحتب الثاني بعرض للتقسيم السلمي للأراضي المتنازع عليها في سوريا. يمكن أن يتطور الحل السلمي لصراع قديم إلى تحالف سياسي وعسكري، لكن المصريين اشتبهوا في وجود مؤامرة ولم يقدموا إجابة واضحة لسنوات. في وقت ما من عهد الفرعون المصري تحتمس الرابع، اقترح المصريون الزواج بين تحتمس الرابع وابنة أرتاتاما الأول، ولكن لأسباب غير معروفة رفض أرتاتاما الأول طلب الزواج. كان على المصريين تقديم 7 طلبات زواج متتالية قبل موافقة أرتاتاما الأول في النهاية. وهكذا، قد يكون أرتاتاما الأول والد الملكة موت إم ويا وجد أم الفرعون المصري أمنحتب الثالث. خلف أرتاتاما ابنه الملك شوتارنا الثاني على عرش ميتاني.

Operation Allied Harbour

Operation Allied Harbour
Operation Allied Harbor was NATO's first humanitarian operation. In the case of the Kosovo crisis, by the end of March 1999 these agencies were unable to cope with the massive influx of refugees into Albania. Within a fortnight over 200,000 refugees had arrived from Kosovo and NATO was the only organisation quickly able to meet the expanding need. HQ ACE Mobile Force (Land) was deployed within five days. Military personnel and staff set to work within twenty four hours of arrival, and within a few weeks, working closely with the civilian sector and the Albanian Government. By 15 June 1999 there were 479,223 refugees in the country. But the provision by NATO of medical, engineer, transport, security and staff support prevented Slobodan Milošević from destabilising Albania and proved instrumental in sustaining the refugees and in their eventual return to Kosovo.
