Edward Gregory Morant Gale (1772–1855) was an English amateur cricketer who made three known appearances in what are classified as first-class cricket matches between 1793 and 1795. He was a noted patron of the game who organised a number of matches in the 1790s and was a plantation owner in the British West Indies.

Biography
Morant was born in 1772, the son of Edward Morant, a Member of Parliament, and his second wife Mary Whitehorne Goddard, daughter of James Goddard of Conduit Street, London. His family had owned a number of slave plantations producing sugar in Jamaica for generations, and Morant inherited the estates belonging to his aunt Elizabeth Morant and her husband William Gale who died in 1784, as well as those of  his father who died in 1791. He assumed the name Gale as part of the terms of his inheritance from his aunt.

Morant served as ensign in the 1st Regiment of Foot Guards from 1791.

As a cricketer, Morant played mainly for Marylebone Cricket Club and for Oldfield Cricket Club, a team in Berkshire. He played his debut first-class match for R Leigh's XI at Burley-on-the Hill in August 1792 and his last for Oldfield against a Middlesex XI at Lord's Old Ground in July 1795. He batted in six innings, was not out in three of them, and scored a total of 13 runs. He never bowled but took one wicket by stumping and another with a catch.

Morant lived at Upham near Bishop's Waltham in Hampshire. He married twice: his first wife was Elizabeth Townsend whom he married in 1798, and his second wife was Emily Jane Gambier. His daughter Louisa married William Skipwith, son of Sir Grey Skipwith, 8th Baronet in 1843. His son Edward John Morant Gale was also a cricketer, and married Maria Henrietta, second daughter of Sir Simeon Stuart in 1845.

Morant died at Upham in August 1855. At his death most of his properties in Jamaica, where slavery had been abolished in 1838, were heavily mortgaged, with only one passing to his wife and son.

The Marshall-Stevenson Wildlife Sanctuary is a limited-access wetlands area located on Vancouver Island west of Qualicum Beach, British Columbia, Canada.

History

The area was originally part of the Kinkade Farmstead  (now a Federal Heritage site).  Farmed in the late 19th century by settler Thomas Kinkade, the area was donated to the Federal Government in 1974 by Maureen and Sherwood Marshall and is now part of the Qualicum National Wildlife Area under supervision of Environment Canada.  The sanctuary is named in honor of their respective families. 
The sanctuary is adjacent to the Little Qualicum River Estuary Regional Conservation Area, 4.5 hectares of beach and estuary habitat at the mouth of the Little Qualicum River.

Ecology

The wetland is a tidal marsh absorbing flow from both the outlet of the Little Qualicum River and the Strait of Georgia, supporting a complex ecosystem, including salmon spawning.  Migratory waterfowl (including ducks, geese, and swans) rely on the area along with resident habitat users (including eagles, owls, egrets, deer, and otters).  Because of the outflow of the river, pinnipeds are attracted to the area in the Strait of Georgia during spawning seasons.
There are concerns about the health of the marsh habitats.  Non-migrant Canada Geese overgraze, changing fresh and sea water levels and channel movement affect the tidal replenishment necessary to the marsh’s health.

Access
There are no public trails into the sanctuary, though there are adequate viewing areas at the periphery of the property.  Mount Cokely and Mount Arrowsmith are visible from the sanctuary.

Mszczuj of Skrzynno  (; also Mściwoj  of Skrzynno; Polish: Mszczuj ze Skrzynna; died in 1446) was one of the Polish knights of Władysław Jagiełło who took part on July 15, 1410 in the Battle of Grunwald against the Teutonic Knights. He was a knight of the royal household regiment of the King of Poland (cubiculariorum). He bore a Łabędź, or Swan, as a coat of arms.

According to the Polish chronicler Jan Długosz, Mszczuj was part of the third Rota, a unit of cavalry of the royal household under the leadership of Andrzej Ciołek of Żelechowo and Jan Odrowąż of Sprowa. Długosz relates that Mszczuj was the knight who defeated and killed the Grand Master of the Order, Ulrich von Jungingen during the Battle of Grunwald. Długosz offers two pieces of evidence for this. First, Mszczuj's squire, Jurga, acquired and handed over a valuable reliquary with holy relics that had previously belonged to von Jungingen, as well as the Grand Master's battle cloak. Second, the locating of the Grand Master's body was made possible thanks to the directions given by Mszczuj, which indicates that the two knights definitely engaged each other on the field of battle.

On September 10, 1410, Mszczuj took part in a follow-up battle against the Teutonic Knights at Koronowo and contributed to the Polish-Lithuanian victory.

In 1412 he was part of the delegation and personal escort of Władysław Jagiełło to the Kingdom of Hungary, where he took part in tourneys and jousts. In 1428 he took part in the expedition against Great Novgorod carried out by the Grand Duke of Lithuania Vytautas. In 1431 he participated in Władysław Jagiełło's offensive against the rebel Švitrigaila in Lithuania and was present at the siege of Lutsk. A year later he led the reinforcements for the new Grand Duke Zygmunt Kiejstutowicz in his war against Švitrigaila.

He owned large tracts of land in Volodymyr. A 15th-century church, purportedly built by Mszczuj can be found and visited in Opoczno.

Lampton is a small area of Hounslow located on the Great West Road in the London Borough of Hounslow, between Hounslow town centre and Heston. Its name derives from the Old English for 'lamb farm.'

Lampton was traditionally the property of the Bulstrodes (lords of the manor of Hounslow) from the 18th century on; their plans to create grand housing along the Lampton Road in 1881 were unsuccessful, and the area remained a small, primarily-agricultural hamlet until the late 19th century. The area became built-up as a result of the extension of what is now the Piccadilly line to Hounslow.

The area gives its name to Lampton School, Lampton Road and Lampton Park.

USS Rocket (AMc-101) was an Accentor-class coastal minesweeper acquired by the U.S. Navy for the dangerous task of removing mines from minefields laid in the water to prevent ships from passing.

Vericeras is an extinct genus of actively mobile carnivorous cephalopod, essentially a Nautiloid, that lived in what would be Europe during the Silurian from 421—418.7 mya, existing for approximately .

Taxonomy 
Vericeras was assigned to Orthocerida by Sepkoski (2002).

Morphology
The shell is usually long, and may be straight ("orthoconic") or gently curved.  In life, these animals may have been similar to the modern squid, except for the long shell.

Fossil distribution
Fossil distribution is exclusive to Sardinia.

Cerro Azul is a city in the  Mexican state of Veracruz. Located in the state's Huasteca Baja region, it serves as the municipal seat for the surrounding municipality of the same name. 

In the 2005 INEGI Census, the city reported a total population of  
23,573.

History
The site had been a  area of rolling plains and hills used for cattle grazing (potreros).  Hundreds of little asphalt springs dotted the area where cattle bones could be seen caught in the black seepage.  Oil drilling in the area began in 1906.  

The town's population grew exponentially following the drilling of the Cerro Azul No. 4 well, at the time the world's largest pumping 260,000 barrels per day (BPD), in February 1916.  The well was drilled by Herbert Wylie for the Mexican Petroleum Company, then controlled by California oilman Edward L. Doheny.  When the well came in the sound could be heard  away in Casiano, and shot a stream of oil  into the air, sending oil in a two-mile (3-km) radius.  Over the next 14-years the well would produce over 57 millions barrels.  Doheny formed the Pan American Petroleum and Transport Company, of which the Mexican Petroleum Company portion would later become the PEMEX.  

The municipality of Cerro Azul was created on 27 November 1963, and the city was given city status on 6 December 1983.
