Mehen is a board game which was played in ancient Egypt. The game was named in reference to Mehen, a snake deity in ancient Egyptian religion.

History
Evidence of the game of Mehen is found from the Predynastic period dating from approximately 3000 BC and continues until the end of the Old Kingdom, around 2300 BC. Aside from physical boards, which mostly date to the Predynastic and Archaic periods, a Mehen board also appears in a picture in the tomb of Hesy-Ra, and its name first appears in the tomb of Rahotep. Other scenes dating to the Fifth Dynasty of Egypt and Sixth Dynasty of Egypt show people playing the game. No scenes or boards date to the Middle Kingdom of Egypt or New Kingdom of Egypt, and so it appears that the game was no longer played in Egypt after the Old Kingdom. It is, however, depicted in tombs of about 700, because the tomb decorations are copied from Old Kingdom originals.

Mehen also appears to have been played outside of Egypt. It appears alongside other boards displaying the game of senet at Bab 'edh Dhra and in Cyprus. In Cyprus, it sometimes appears on the opposite side of the same stone as senet, and those from Sotira Kaminoudhia, dating to approximately 2250 BC, are the oldest surviving double-sided boards known. Mehen survived in Cyprus longer than in Egypt, showing that the game was indigenized upon its adoption into the island's culture.

The rules and gameplay of Mehen are entirely unknown.

Equipment

In Egypt, the gameboard depicts a coiled snake whose body is divided into rectangular spaces. Several boards have been found with different numbers of segments, without distinguishing marks or ornamentation. In Cyprus and the Levant, the games take the form of a spiral of depressions, sometimes with the central or outer depressions differentiated by their larger size. These also display a variable number of depressions. The variability suggests that the number of segments was of little importance to the game. Objects associated with the board may or may not be playing pieces. From archaeological evidence, the game seemed to have been played with lion- or lioness-shaped pieces, in sets of three or as many as six, and a few small spheres (marbles or balls).

Bathurst Lighthouse is one of two lighthouses on Rottnest Island, the other being Wadjemup Lighthouse. It is located on Bathurst Point, in the northeast of the island, and was activated in 1900. The lighthouse was erected in response to a series of shipping disasters in the area, which included the loss of City of York in 1899.

The light source and lantern house were originally to be used at Cape Leeuwin but were then built in on Rottnest Island. In 1920 the original acetylene flame was replaced by a flasher, which made the keeper superfluous. An electric light was installed in 1986.

Bathurst Lighthouse serves as the rear light in the pair of Kingston Reef's leading lights, which guide ships departing from Fremantle through the reefs near the island. Its light is characterised by a group of four flashes that occurs every sixteen seconds.

The original land allocation for the lighthouse and surrounds was reduced in size in 1934.

"New Spanish Two Step" is a Western swing standard based on a traditional fiddle tune, "Spanish Two Step". Bob Wills and His Texas Playboys recorded the latter on September 23, 1935, and released it on Vocalion 03230 in 1936. Ten years later, Wills and Tommy Duncan added lyrics and recorded it again on April 25, 1945, releasing it on Columbia 36966 in April 1946 as "New Spanish Two Step". It stayed on the charts for 23 weeks, reaching number one on the Folk-Jukebox chart for 16 weeks. Both versions were one of the band's signature songs.

Wills and his vocalist, Tommy Duncan, added lyrics to reflect the title:

KRYP is a commercial broadcast FM radio station located in the Portland, Oregon area and owned by the Salem Media Group.  KRYP is a Spanish language station playing regional Mexican music (a mix of genres such as Banda, Ranchera, Mariachi, and Norteño).

The Spring 2008 Arbitron ratings saw KRYP become the Portland metropolitan area market leader, marking the first time a Spanish language radio station achieved that milestone.

Facilities
KRYP's studio is in Gladstone, and its main transmitter is atop Portland's West Hills.  The station also has a reservation for Astoria, Oregon at 92.9 MHz.

History
KRYP took on its current callsign and radio format during the two-week period starting on March 28, 2007.  From early 2006 to April 11, 2007, the station was known as KTRO and featured a talk radio format.

KTRO-FM came into existence through a complicated deal that involved five owners of radio stations in Oregon and featured both signal downgrades and frequency migrations. It started in 2005 when Salem Communications bought the FM signal from New Northwest Broadcasters, who had operated it as KAST-FM on 92.9 in Astoria, Oregon. To make room on the Portland dial, KPDQ-FM, also owned by Salem, moved from 93.7 to 93.9 and downgraded its broadcast station class from C to C1. McKenzie River Broadcasting's KKNU, licensed to Springfield, moved from 93.1 to 93.3. Bay Cities Building's KDCQ, licensed to Coos Bay, moved from 93.5 to 92.9.  Meanwhile, Oregon Eagle's KTIL-FM, licensed to Tillamook, moved from 94.1 to 94.3.  New Northwest's own 94.3 licensed to Long Beach, Washington/Astoria, picked up the KAST-FM callsign and format from the original 92.9 to 99.7.

Salem Communication, which normally "target[s] audiences interested in Christian and family-themed content and conservative values", brought in José Santos of Santos Latin Media, former program director of KLVE in Los Angeles, to consult on its change to a Regional Mexican format.

St Mawnan and St Stephen's Church, Mawnan is a Grade II* listed parish church in the Church of England Diocese of Truro in Mawnan, Cornwall, England, UK.

History
The church dates from the 13th century with the tower dating from the 14th and 15th centuries. It was restored in 1827 when the north wall was rebuilt. The chancel roof was restored by the vicar in 1861 and a further restoration took place in 1879 to 1880 under the direction of the architect James Piers St Aubyn. It was by then in a ruinous state and no longer possible to worship within. In the 1880 restoration considerable portions of the north and south walls were rebuilt, and several new windows were inserted. The chancel and east window of the north aisle were filled with stained glass, and in the north-east corner a new window of coloured glass was inserted in memory of M. Nowell Peters who died in 1880. The contractor for the restoration was Messrs May of Pool, and it cost £1,500. The church reopened on 30 June 1880.

The patron saint is Mawan, Mawnan or Mawganus, who appears to have settled in the neighbourhood in the 6th century.

There is a fragment of a cross head built into the north aisle wall; it was found in the churchyard in 1881.

Rectors of Mawnan

Parish status
The church is in a joint parish with:
St Michael's Church, Mawnan Smith

Organ

The church had an organ by J. W. Walker & Sons Ltd dating from 1875 which was originally in All Saints’ Church, Marazion. It has subsequently been enlarged by Hele & Co and Lance Foy. A specification of the organ can be found on the National Pipe Organ Register.

Aratrum is the Latin word for ard, and arotron (ἄροτρον) is the Greek word. The Greeks appear to have had several kinds of ard from the records. Hesiod advised the farmer to always have two ards handy, so that if one broke the other could replace it. These ards should be of two kinds. The first was the body- or crook-ard, called autoguos (αυτογυος, "self-limbed"), in which the stilt (Gk echetle; Lat stiva) was of the same piece of timber as the ard-head (Gk elyma; Lat dentale) and the draft-beam (Gk histoboeus; Lat buris). The second was the sole-ard, called pekton (πηκτον, "fixed"), because in it three parts (stilt + sole (Gk gyes) + beam), which were of three kinds of timber, were adjusted to one another and fastened together by nails.

The autoguos crook-ard was made from a sapling with two branches growing from its trunk in opposite directions. In ploughing, the trunk served as the draft-beam, one of the two branches stood upwards and became the stilt, and the other scratched the ground and, sometimes shod with bronze or iron, acted as the share (Gk hynis; L vomer).

Vincent Gabriel “Vinney” Danz (February 26, 1963 – September 11, 2001) was a New York Police Department officer and a Port Security Specialist Second Class in the United States Coast Guard Reserve, who died responding to the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center, on September 11, 2001.

Police career
Danz joined the Police Department after serving in the United States Marine Corps.  He had been a Police officer for 14 years.  He started on bicycle patrol.  He was a member of the Emergency Services Unit.

Legacy

Danz was the first Police Officer to have a memorial service.  New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani gave a eulogy.

In 2010, Charles "Skip" W. Bowen, who was then the Coast Guard's most senior non-commissioned officer, proposed that all the cutters in the Sentinel class should be named after enlisted sailors in the Coast Guard, or one of its precursor services, who were recognized for their heroism.  On October 23, 2019, the Coast Guard announced that the 62nd Sentinel class cutter would be named the USCGC Vincent Danz.

On November 12, 2019, Karl Schultz, Commandant of the Coast Guard was joined by Bill de Blasio, Mayor of New York, James P. O'Neill, Police Commissioner and John Sudnik FDNY Fire Chief, to formally announce the ship's names.
