Heather ( ) is a village west of Ibstock in North West Leicestershire, England. The population of the civil parish was 949 at the 2001 census reducing to 920 at the 2011 census.  In the Domesday Book of 1086, its name is recorded as Hadre, meaning "the heathland".

There was an Iron Age settlement immediately north west of the village. As part of an open cast coal mining application, this was excavated in 1990. It identified a settlement from the late 2nd century BC through to early second century A.D.

History
The village's name means 'heathland'.

The parish church, dedicated to St. John the Baptist, was "established" in the 12th century as a chapel for the Knights Hospitallers of the adjacent Heather Preceptory which was founded before 1199. The current church dates from the early 14th-century, and is a Grade II* Listed Building.

Coal mining and brickmaking
The coal mine at Heather opened in 1874 though some coal had been worked there even earlier. Brick making followed during the 20th century. In the 1970s and 1980s two huge open cast coal mines were opened up. The Coalville Farm opencast coal mine, between 1982 and 1996, extracted around eight million tons of coal. This area was subsequently restored to become the Sence Valley Country Park.

Following the refusal of a 1990 British Coal application for massive further open cast works, its successor, UK Coal applied for consent for a much smaller scheme. To the north of the village, it was the called the Long Moor open cast coal mine. Over a three-year period from 2007 to 2010 they extracted 725,000 tons of coal. Following restoration, the  mine site was acquired by the Woodland Trust. With adjoining agricultural land this was promoted as the Flagship Diamond Wood of their campaign to create 60 new woods of 60 acres or more. It is a  new woodland called Queen Elizabeth Diamond Jubilee Wood, and celebrated the 2012 Diamond Jubilee of Queen Elizabeth II.

Village life
Heather Parish Church is dedicated to St John Baptist. The Anglican parishes of Heather and Ibstock are now the responsibility of the same clergyman (Rector of Ibstock). The village is famous for its Scarecrow and Music Festivals, usually held  around July/August.

Heather was for 63 years the home of David Taylor, Labour MP for North West Leicestershire from 1997 until his death in 2009.

Baggara cattle are an autochthonous Sudanese breed part of the shorthorned Zebu group of breeds of eastern Africa. Baggara cattle are smaller and thinner than the Boran breed of Kenya and Ethiopia. They are named for the Baggara people of western Sudan and central Chad, who raise Baggara cattle primarily for beef.  Baggara means cattle people in the Shuwa Arabic language of these people.  The related Butana and Kenana breeds of the Nile Valley are dairy breeds and need much more feed and water than the Baggara.

Baggara are characterized by their adaptive characteristics and high performance in hot and dry agro-ecosystems such as in the dry Sahel.  The Baggara breed is being improved by breeding projects of the Sudanese Department of Agriculture.

The Integrated Sensor is Structure (ISIS) was a program managed by the United States Air Force (USAF) Research Laboratory to research the feasibility of using an unmanned airship as a high-altitude aerial reconnaissance and surveillance platform. It is sometimes called Integrated Sensor is the Structure, as a fundamental innovation was the use of the airship structure as the sensing component of a state-of-the-art radar system.

In 2006, contracts were awarded to Raytheon for development of a large-area, light, Active electronically scanned array antenna which could be bonded to the structure of a blimp, Northrop Grumman for antenna development, and Lockheed Martin for development of the airship. As proposed, the -long surveillance airship could be launched from the US and stationed for up to 10 years at an altitude of , observing the movement of vehicles, aircraft, and people below. At that altitude, the airship would be beyond the range of most surface-to-air and air-to-air missiles. The airship would be filled with helium and powered, at least in part, by solar-powered hydrogen fuel cells.

On March 12, 2009, the USAF announced that it had budgeted $400 million for work on ISIS . In April 2009, DARPA awarded a $399.9 million contract to Lockheed Martin as the systems integrator and Raytheon as the radar developer for phase three of the project: the construction of a one-third scale model, which would remain in the air for up to a year. The ultimate goal was to provide radar capable of delivering persistent, wide-area surveillance tracking and engagement of air targets within a 600-kilometer area and ground targets within a  area, according to DARPA. The model blimp was to have radar coverage of about 7,176 square yards (6,000 square meters) and be tested at an altitude of  above the ground. The contract initially awarded $100 million to the two companies, with the rest to follow in phases, with a completion date of March 2013.

As of 2012, the development of the airframe had been delayed to focus on "radar risk reduction". The United States Department of Defense ended the program in 2015. $471 million had been spent from 2007 through 2012.

Fearless Photog is a character created for Mattel's Masters of the Universe toyline. A heroic warrior with a robotic camera-shaped head, he has the ability to ‘focus in’ on his enemies and drain their strength. His chest plate displays silhouettes of his defeated enemies.

Development
In 1986, Mattel sponsored a contest for children to send in designs for new characters. Five finalists were chosen, and people were then allowed to vote for their favorite. In the last page of the Spring 1986 issue of The Masters of the Universe Magazine, they announced 12-year-old Nathan Bitner as the winner of the contest with his submission of Fearless Photog. Nathan was awarded a scholarship for 100,000 dollars, plus a five-day trip to Disneyland.

Despite the contest's premise, however, Fearless Photog never actually went into production. While claiming they no longer have the rights to produce an action figure of this character, Mattel gave it a small nod in 2011 on the bio of its Masters of the Universe Classics figure Captain Glenn. At San Diego Comic-Con International 2011, Mattel later revealed that Fearless Photog would finally receive a figure as the first entry in their six-figure Masters of the Universe Classics 30th Anniversary series.

The Casa degli Eustachi is a medieval palace in Pavia in Lombardy.

History 
The Eustachi house is located in the ancient district of Porta Calcinara, near the Ticino bank. The Eustachi family, of popular origin and dedicated to river traffic, during the fourteenth century became, working for the Visconti, one of the main city families, so much so that Pasino Eustachi became, under Gian Galeazzo and then of Filippo Maria, captain of the Visconti fleet and defeated the Venetian fleet on the Po in the important battle of Cremona in 1431. The house dates back to the early 15th century and is built around a small internal courtyard. Today, two "L" -shaped buildings remain of the structure, but it is assumed that it was much larger. Casa Eustachi now houses the University of the Third Age.

Architecture 
The building has an "L" planimetrically with the longer side to the west and the shorter side to the north, along the main street. The entire complex consists of a ground floor (to which the garden is attached in the rear part of the building) and a first floor. The ground floor consists of two large rooms with coffered wooden ceilings; one of the rooms is illuminated by a large Gothic window; the first room is accessed from the main entrance (on via porta Pertusi), consisting of a Gothic arched portal with a ring richly decorated with terracotta plant motifs and surmounted by a tile, decorated with rhomboidal geometric motifs, which was to house the coat of arms of the family. Even the large cylindrical column, which supports the two lowered arches of the portico, surmounted by a cubic capital, seems to be an architectural element linked to the tried and tested Romanesque construction tradition. Although the permanence of the late Gothic language continued in the Pavia area, and in Lombardy more generally, throughout the course of the fifteenth century, it is also true that the planimetric configuration of the building and the refined workmanship of the architectural elements that make up the building are to be considered as modernity characters. In the case of the Casa degli Eustachi, the study of early fifteenth-century architecture gave results of considerable interest thanks to the integrity of the living organisms that have not undergone subsequent modifications or amalgamations.

The Hantzbahn was a  long narrow-gauge railway with a gauge of  from Saint-Blaise-la-Roche in Alsace over the Hantz Pass and beyond.

History 
The Hantzbahn was laid in 1916 during World War I by German troops, Russian prisoners of war and local civilians as a military light railway using prefabricated rail track panels with a length of 5 meters.

Route 
The light railway connected Saint-Blaise via the Hantz Pass with the front line at Ban-de-Sapt, in order to transport weapons, ammunition and supplies to the front and wounded soldiers in the opposite direction to the hospitals.

Operation 

The light railway line started operating in July 1916. The operation was organized according to a timetable with precise service instructions regarding the type of locomotives, the number of wagons, the speeds and the tonnages that had to be complied with depending on the section of the route. A total of 176 people were employed for the smooth operation of the six steam locomotives and four benzene locomotives as well as for the maintenance of the rail vehicles and tracks. It was single track line with eight stations, where trains could be crossed or overtaken using the double-track passing loops.

In the vicinity of the front line, the less powerful gasoline locomotives offered advantages over the 0-8-0 brigade locomotives, because the smoke was easy  to spot by the enemy. For better camouflage in the woodless area, camouflage tunnels were installed, which gave the station "Spanische Wand" its name, meaning paravent in German.

Remains 

In the post-war period, the tracks were dismantled and scrapped. The old customs house on the road to the Col du Hantz, the former border station at the top of the pass and the Chateau des St Louis on the D61 are still standing.
