Vågan Church (; nickname: Lofoten Cathedral) is a parish church of the Church of Norway in Vågan Municipality in Nordland county, Norway. It is located in the village of Kabelvåg on the island of Austvågøya. It is the church for the Vågan parish which is part of the Lofoten prosti (deanery) in the Diocese of Sør-Hålogaland. The yellow, wooden church was built in a cruciform style in 1898 using plans drawn up by the architect Carl J. Bergstrøm. The church seats about 1,200 people, making it the largest wooden building in Northern Norway, hence the nickname Lofoten Cathedral.

History
The earliest existing historical records of the church date back to the early 12th century when King Øystein Magnusson (c. 1088– 1123) ordered that a church be built in Vågan to serve the Lofoten area. The first church was likely a stave church and it was located about  west of the present site of the church. In the mid-1600s, the old church was enlarged and renovated, giving the building a cruciform design. After centuries of use, the old church deteriorated and in 1712 or 1713 the old church began to collapse and so it was torn down. A new church was built on the same site in 1713–1714. It was a timber-framed long church design with a tower on the roof and a cemetery surrounding the church. This church was in use for nearly a century when in 1798, it was disassembled and moved to the nearby island of Værøya where it was rebuilt as the Værøy Church. A new church was built in Vågan to replace the one that was moved away. The new church was a timber building in a cruciform design.

In 1814, this church served as an election church (). Together with more than 300 other parish churches across Norway, it was a polling station for elections to the 1814 Norwegian Constituent Assembly which wrote the Constitution of Norway. This was Norway's first national elections. Each church parish was a constituency that elected people called "electors" who later met together in each county to elect the representatives for the assembly that was to meet in Eidsvoll later that year.

By the late 1800s, the Kabelvåg area had seen a lot of population growth due to the tremendous fishing opportunities each season. In 1898, a new church was built about  to the east of the old church. It was designed to be large enough to accommodate all the fishermen who came to Kabelvåg each season.  It was nicknamed the "Lofoten Cathedral" () by Eivind Berggrav, the Bishop of the Diocese of Oslo in 1929. The church was designed in Gothic revival style by the architect Carl Julius Bergstrøm (1828-1898). The new church was consecrated on 9 October 1898. After the new church was completed, the "old church" was still located just across the road for a couple of years until it was demolished in the summer of 1900.

Richard Yates (1769–1834) was an English cleric and antiquary.

Life
Born in July 1769 at Bury St. Edmunds, he was the son of Richard Yates (1741–1803). He was educated at Bury grammar school, but left it at the age of 15 to take a post as usher in a school at Linton, Cambridgeshire. In 1789 he was a teacher at Chelmsford grammar school, and in 1792 at a school in Hammersmith. In September 1796 he was ordained deacon, and preached his first sermon as curate of Chelsea Hospital on 2 October 1796. In January 1797 he was ordained priest, and in March 1798 he was appointed one of the chaplains of the hospital, with which he remained connected until his death. While at Chelsea Hospital he acquired a reputation as a popular preacher.

In 1793 Yates had matriculated at Jesus College, Cambridge. In May 1804 he was appointed to the rectory of Ashen, Essex. In 1805, as a ten-year man, he took the degree of B.D., and subsequently (1818) was D.D. at Cambridge.

Yates lived mainly in London, where he was in demand as a preacher at the fashionable chapels. He interested himself in the conduct and management of public charities, and acted as secretary of the asylum for the deaf and dumb. In 1805 he was elected one of the treasurers of the Literary Fund, a post which he continued to hold till his death nearly thirty years later.

Yates was a Fellow of the Society of Antiquaries of London. He declined offers of the livings of Blackburn in Lancashire, and of Hilgay in Norfolk. During the last five or six years of his life he was an invalid, and he died at Penshurst in Kent on 24 August 1834.

Works

On 28 April 1803 Richard Yates the elder died at Bury, having lived for 37 years within the walls of the abbey ruins, of which he was custodian. He had drawings and notes on the history of the abbey.  The first part was published, edited by Richard Yates the younger, in 1805, as Monastic Remains of the Town and Abbey of St. Edmunds Bury. It gave a chronological history of the abbey. The first chapter of a second part, describing the western gate of the abbey, and plates, were published as specimens at the end of part i. with appendix of a number of Bury charters. The second part itself did not appear until 1843, published through the efforts of John Bowyer Nichols, a friend of Yates.

Yates published also sermons, and a pamphlet called The Church in Danger: a Statement of the Cause, and of the probable Means of averting that Danger, attempted in a Letter to the Earl of Liverpool (1815). This pamphlet, which pointed out the shortage of places of public worship for Anglicans, was commended by Nicholas Vansittart, the chancellor of the exchequer, who was advocating parliamentary grants for new churches and chapels, particularly in London.

Family
Yates married in 1810 the only daughter of Patrick Telfer of Gower Street, giving him independent means. He left a family of three children.

Peter-Paul Pigmans (31 January 1961 – 27 August 2003) was a Dutch gabber music producer, best known for his production under the pseudonym 3 Steps Ahead.

Born in Berkel en Rodenrijs and based out of Rotterdam, Pigmans' music is widely considered one of the most innovative specimens of the gabber genre; while many gabber producers favor raw force and little virtuosity when creating a song, Pigmans' music always had a strong technical side, and his songs often featured atmospherical elements, an unusual thing in the genre at the time. He was also known for his extremely wild live shows.

His first full-length album Most Wanted & Mad (1997) reached #35 on the Dutch album top 100.

Pigmans was diagnosed with brain cancer in 1999. On 18 July 2003 in Zaandam at the Hemkade stadium, fellow Dutch producers organized a fundraising event for him called "3 Steps Ahead 4 Life" where the cream of the Dutch gabber scene performed (for free - all income was spent on his treatment in hope of curing him) and paid respect to him. A couple of weeks later, he died. Two months later the annual Thunderdome started with a one-minute silence in his memory.

He's been elected into the Thunderdome Hall of Fame.

Barrhead was a provincial electoral district in Alberta mandated to return a single member to the Legislative Assembly of Alberta using first-past-the-post balloting from 1971 to 1993.

History

Boundary history
Barrhead replaced the district of Pembina in the redistribution that took effect in 1971, centred around the town of Barrhead. In 1979 its southern boundary was extended to the north shore of Lac Ste. Anne, and extended further south again in 1986.

In the redistribution that took effect in 1993, the riding was replaced by Barrhead-Westlock and its southern portion was transferred to Whitecourt-Ste. Anne.

Representation history

The first representative for Barrhead was one-term Progressive Conservative MLA for Lac Ste. Anne Hugh Horner, who had captured his seat from the governing Social Credit in 1967. He occupied several posts in Peter Lougheed's cabinet over his career, but retired shortly after winning his fourth term as MLA in 1979.

The resulting by-election was the closest result in the history of the district, with Liberal leader Nicholas Taylor running for the seat. Progressive Conservative Candidate Ken Kowalski, however, would narrowly retain Barrhead for the government. He also served in cabinet and, when the district was abolished in 1993, went on to serve as MLA for Barrhead-Westlock.
