HDMS Elephanten (, from the Order of the Elephant) was a ship of the line of the Royal Dano-Norwegian Navy that served from 1703 to 1728. There were three other Danish ships-of-the line of the same name, dating from 1684, 1741 and 1773. The ship was sometimes referred to as Nye Elefant () to differentiate from others of similar name. For much of her service career, which coincided with the Great Northern War, Elephanten was the flagship of the Danish fleet active in the Baltic Sea.

Ship's career

In 1710 Elephanten participated in the Battle of Køge Bay, where she served as flagship for Admiral Ulrik Gyldenløve. Elephanten remained Gyldenløve's flagship until 1712 when the Danish fleet was heavily involved in the ongoing siege of Stralsund. Captain  was the flag captain during 1711 and 1712.

In 1712 Jacob Dos had been flag captain to Vice Admiral Peter Raben on  and (after a spell of sickness) was again Raben's flag captain when Raben commanded the Baltic fleet from Elephanten in 1714 and 1715. This was a period in which the fleet of 15 ships-of-the-line escorted a squadron and fleet of troop transports under Christen Thomesen Sehested to Pomerania and which included the successful Battle of Rügen. Dos was again flag captain to Admiral Raben on Elephanten in 1718.

In early October 1715 Gyldenløve again took command of Denmark's Baltic fleet, again flying his flag in Elephanten. For three weeks Ulrich Kaas was his flag captain before his own promotion to Rear Admiral, then Rasmus Krag took over.

Elephanten continued to lead the Danish fleet in the Baltic throughout 1716 and 1717 with Admiral Gyldenløve in command. Commodore (later Admiral) , was the flag captain in these later stages.

1726
By the end of the Great Northern War much of the Danish fleet was seriously dilapidated and in need of refitting and repair. The refitting of Elephanten at the Danish naval base of Holmen was mismanaged and expensive, resulting in a ship that was unfit for service, for which Ole Judichær was blamed.

Fate
She was scuttled in 1728 to create the artificial island Elefanten at Holmen, Copenhagen.

The ship's former anchor was recovered from the Bay of Køge in 1979. In October the same year it was inaugurated as a local landmark in a donation from Sejlklubben Greve Strand in connection with the celebration of the harbour's 50 years' anniversary.

The Morgan–Monchy Border Crossing connects the town of Loring, Montana with Val Marie, Saskatchewan on the Canada–US border. It is reached by U.S. Route 191 on the American side and Saskatchewan Highway 4 on the Canadian side.  These roadways were not paved near the border until the late 1980s. This crossing is where the proposed Keystone Pipeline was to cross the border.

In 2011, the US replaced its border inspection facilities, which were originally built in 1963.  Canada replaced its inspection facilities, which were built in 1973, in 2015.

The Ländler () is a folk dance in  time which was popular in Austria, Bavaria, German Switzerland, and Slovenia at the end of the 18th century.

It is a partner dance that strongly features hopping and stamping. It might be purely instrumental or have a vocal part, sometimes featuring yodeling.

When dance halls became popular in Europe in the 19th century, the Ländler was made quicker and more elegant, and the men shed the hobnail boots that they wore to dance it. Along with a number of other folk dances from Germany and Bohemia, it is thought to have influenced the development of the waltz.

A number of classical composers wrote or included Ländler in their music, including Ludwig van Beethoven, Franz Schubert and Anton Bruckner. In several of his symphonies, Gustav Mahler replaced the menuet with a Ländler. The Carinthian folk tune quoted in Alban Berg's Violin Concerto is a Ländler, and another features in Act II of his opera Wozzeck. The "German Dances" of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and Joseph Haydn also resemble Ländler. Josef Lanner (1801–1843) wrote several Ländlers. He, along with Johann Strauss I and Johann Strauss II, helped popularize the waltz in Vienna and elsewhere. The Johann Strauss II waltz Tales from the Vienna Woods features a zither playing in the style of a Ländler. Britten's Peter Grimes features a Ländler in the scene where a dance night is occurring in the hall.

The Sound of Music Broadway musical, the film, and the American and British live TV broadcasts (The Sound of Music Live! (2013) and The Sound of Music Live (2015)) all feature a scene where the protagonists Maria and Captain von Trapp dance a Ländler. The instrumental tune used in that sequence is a -time rearrangement of the more polka-like "The Lonely Goatherd" when Bil Baird's puppets are no longer needed, so are not seen for the rest of the film. Compare this one to the "Dornbacher" Ländler by Lanner, and one will hear many similarities. The choreographers for the motion picture researched the traditional Austrian folk dance and integrated it into the choreography of the Ländler danced in the film. The same (The Sound of Music) Ländler is played by two or three zithers, during the rehearsal for the Salzburg Music Festival, as well.

Saarloq is a settlement in the Kujalleq municipality in southern Greenland. Its population was 21 in 2020. It is located on a small island with the same name off the Labrador Sea coast, at the mouth of the Qaqortoq Fjord, west of Alluitsup Paa and 20 km south of Qaqortoq.

The settlement is the southernmost of the three settlements—along Eqalugaarsuit and Qassimiut—that made up the former Qaqortoq municipality. The settlements are presently governed by a joint settlement council.

On January 1, 2009, the settlement became part of the Kujalleq municipality, when the Narsaq, Qaqortoq, and Nanortalik municipalities ceased to exist.

Transport 

The village is served by the Saarloq Heliport. Air Greenland district helicopters link the settlement with Nanortalik, and further to Qaqortoq and Narsarsuaq.

Infrastructure and communications 
The settlement has its own church, and a school—Atuarfik Saarloq, Greenlandic for "school of Saarloq"—with 5 to 6 pupils.

There are no cars in the settlement, and there is no heliport; weekly helicopter connections land on a tundra plain. Further transportation is by sea. Internet and phone communications are provided by the Home Rule government.

Drinking water is provided by desalination of the sea water. The settlement has three 1,100 liter fresh water tanks for this purpose.

Population 
Most towns and settlements in southern Greenland exhibit negative growth patterns over the last two decades, with many settlements rapidly depopulating. The population of Saarloq has decreased nearly a half relative to the 1990 levels, by nearly a third relative to the 2000 levels. If the trend continues much further, the settlement is likely to close in the future.

Eusebio Delfín y Figueroa (1 April 1893 in Palmira – 28 April 1965 in Havana) was a Cuban banker and musician, recognized for the introduction of arpeggio to Cuban popular music, as well as for his numerous compositions, interpreted by the Buena Vista Social Club, Celia Cruz, Omara Portuondo, and others.

Biography 
Nicknamed "The Aristocrat Trobadour", Eusebio Delfín was born in Palmira to a Spanish-Italian aristocratic family. His father, Ramón Delfín, was the Spanish corregidor for trade in Cienfuegos (by Royal Decree of 1898), and the consular representative for the Kingdom of Italy. His brother Ramón María Delfín wrote the novel "La Gloria de la Familia" ("The Glory of the Family"). In Cienfuegos, Eusebio was trained as an accountant, hoping he could build a career in finance. He eventually became the director of the Banco Comercial, and married Amalia Bacardi y Cape, daughter of rum-magnate Emilio Bacardí, senator and mayor of Santiago de Cuba. Their only child, Eusebio Delfín y Bacardí, was the president of Compañía Cubana de Aviación until the Cuban Revolution.

Musical legacy 
Delfín studied violin and flute, but soon switched to guitar and song. His guitar teacher was Fernando Barrios, and his singing coach was Vincente Sánchez Torralba. He also studied guitar and song, and sang in public for the first time in 1916 at a charitable venue held at the Terry Theatre in Cienfuegos.

Beginning in 1921, he recorded many Cuban songs, both solo and in duets with partners such as Rita Montaner. The first 78rpm with Montaner was Pensamiento (by Rafael 
Gómez, 'Teofilito'). In 1922 he organised, with Eduardo Sánchez de Fuentes, concerts of typical Cuban music in Havana and Cienfuegos. A relatively wealthy man, Delfín donated much of his royalties to charity in Cienfuegos.

According to Guyún, Delfin was responsible for changing the style used to accompany boleros. In the 1920s, boleros were often accompanied by guitar in rayado or rasgueado manner (~strumming); Delfin changed that to a semi-arpeggio style (~picking). He also repeated the rhythm by time and a half, leaving the weak part of the second beat silent. His style became widely popular. His compositions include poetry put to music, such as La Guinda, from a poem by Pedro Mata, and he also wrote his own lyrics, such as ¿Y Tú Qué Has Hecho? (aka En El Tronco De Un Árbol.), Ansia and Qué Boca La Tuya 

At the soirées of the rich he sang boleros, with the result that the wealthy young became enthusiastic about the guitar.

His best-known classic, ¿Y Tú Qué Has Hecho? appeared in the 1997 Buena Vista Social Club debut album, considered one of the most important musical albums of all time, according to Rolling Stone Magazine. According to her own account, the same song was being sung by Celia Cruz when discovered.
