The Howard DGA-8, DGA-9, DGA-11, and DGA-12 were a family of four-place, single-engine, high-wing light monoplanes built by the Howard Aircraft Corporation, Chicago, Illinois from 1936.

Development

The various models were distinguished by different engine choices and detail changes, and were built and sold in parallel to each other. A number of examples were built as one type and converted to another during their lifetimes. The DGA-11, powered by a nine-cylinder  Pratt & Whitney Wasp Junior radial engine, was purportedly the fastest four-seat civil aircraft of the late 1930s, able to achieve a top speed of about . A favorite of the high society and Hollywood circles, the DGA-11 cost about $16,500 in 1938. These aircraft were a direct developments of the famous Howard racing plane Mister Mulligan. Designer/pilot Ben Howard's "DGA" prefix stood for "Damned Good Airplane".

History

The DGA-6's racing success brought the DGA series much attention, and in its various permutations, differentiated mainly by different powerplants, the DGAs -8, -9, -11, -12 (and later DGA-15) emerged as coveted aircraft, owned by corporations, wealthy individuals, and movie stars, such as Wallace Beery, who was himself a pilot. Spanish conductor and pianist Jose Iturbi owned and flew a DGA-11 "El Turia" (NC22402). In an era when airlines were flying DC-3s, the Howards at 160 to  could match their speed and range. The rear seat exceeded airline leg room with limousine-like spaciousness. With its high wing loading, the Howards rode through most turbulence with airline-like solidity. The -11 was probably the ultimate of the series. Configured as a four-place aircraft with the  Pratt & Whitney R-985.

With America's entry into World War II, most of the civilian Howards were commandeered by the military. The Army used them as officer transports and as ambulance planes. They were used variously as an officer's utility transport and for instrument training. The Howard was and is an excellent instrument platform, very stable and solid, especially compared to modern light aircraft.

A number of these aircraft still fly, and another example of a DGA-11, restored by Jim Younkin, can be seen in the Arkansas Air & Military Museum.

Theodora Noeva () (fl. 1937), was a Bulgarian women's rights activist.

Noeva co-founded and edited the first Bulgarian women's magazine, Женский свят ('Women's world') in 1893–99 in collaboration with her brother Atanas Manov, in which she spoke in favor of women's rights to a professional life and equal pay, and is regarded as one of the first pioneers of women's rights and gender equality in her country. In 1896, she attracted great attention by asking to be registered as a voter in Varna. She was married to the rich entrepreneur George Noah of Varna. She was also a noted philanthropist and created fund for the education of boys and a refuge for old people, for which she was awarded a medal from Boris III in 1937.

Focus con Proby is the seventh studio album by the Dutch rock band Focus, released in 1978 on EMI Records. It features five tracks with vocals from American singer P. J. Proby. The record also features guitarists Eef Albers and Philip Catherine, drummer Steve Smith (then with Jean Luc Ponty and later to become part of Journey), as well as the two Focus members from previous albums. Smith and Albers would later go on to collaborate on the first two albums of Smith's band Vital Information.

Reception
In a mixed review in the Richmond Review, reviewer Bob Beech preferred the instrumental tracks over the songs with vocals. He deemed Proby's voice more mellow than his previous records which he preferred, but felt it was out of place on a Focus album. Brian Brennan wrote in Calgary Herald that while Albers is "an accomplished musician" he does not live up to the standard of past Focus guitarist Jan Akkerman. He thought the album consisted of "fussy instrumental work, aimless, hollow and rather uninviting".

George Clapperton was a Scottish nobleman, vernacular poet, and a patron of the Bannatyne Manuscript living in the 1500s.

Biography 
Clapperton worked in the Chapel Royal from 1535-1574 after being put forward to the subdeanery. Clapperton was named as the provost of Trinity College in 1540 following the death of James Kincragy. Due to his connections with both Trinity college and the Chapel Royal he benefitted from his position with royals. Clapperton took on a number of roles outside of his work with Trinity College and the Chapel Royal including being the titular vicar of Wemyss, a parson of Kirkinner, and an almoner to the King, a position which he maintained from 1538 until 1542 when James V died. Clapperton's connection to the Bannatyne Manuscript stems from his presentation to the subdeanery of the Chapel Royal. Clapperton's connection with royalty is consistent with much of the Bannatyne connections. Clapperton's name is included among a number of influential names in Scottish literature in George Bannatyne's 'Memoriall Buik'.

Works 
Clapperton's poem "Wa worth marriage" is included in the Maitland Folio, identifying him as a vernacular poet.

Laviniinae is a clade of the subfamily Leuciscinae, treated as a subfamily of the freshwater fish family Leuciscidae by some authorities, which contains the true minnows. Members of this clade are known as western chubs or the western clade (WC) of minnows. As the name suggests, most members of this clade are found in western North America aside from Chrosomus, which is found in eastern North America.

One of the largest North American cypriniforms and the largest member of Leuciscidae, the Colorado pikeminnow (Ptychocheilus lucius), belongs to this subfamily.

The Ojo Alamo Formation is a geologic formation in New Mexico spanning the Mesozoic/Cenozoic boundary. Non-avian dinosaur fossils have controversially been identified in beds of this formation dating from after the Cretaceous–Paleogene extinction event, but these have been explained as either misidentification of the beds in question or as reworked fossils, fossils eroded from older beds and redeposited in the younger beds.

Description
The Ojo Alamo Formation is divided into two subunits separated by a large unconformity—a gap in the geologic record. The lower Naashoibito member (sometimes considered part of the Kirtland Formation) was deposited during the Maastrichtian age of the Cretaceous period, specifically between about 69-68 million years ago. It overlies the De-na-zin member of the Kirtland formation, though the two are separated by another large unconformity that spans a period of geologic time equivalent to 73-69 million years ago. All dinosaur fossils probably come from this unit.

The upper unit of the Ojo Alamo Formation is the Kimbeto Member, which was deposited mainly during the earliest Cenozoic (Danian age of the Paleogene period), between 66 and 64 million years ago.

Fossils 

Dinosaur remains are among the fossils that have been recovered from the formation, though all dinosaur remains come from the lowest part of the formation, the Naashoibito member (sometimes considered part of the Kirtland Formation, which dates to the late Maastrichtian stage of the Cretaceous period.

Some researchers have claimed to find isolated non-avian dinosaur remains in the younger Kimbeto Member. If this is the case, it would represent the only known instance of a non-avian dinosaur population persisting after the Cretaceous–Paleogene extinction event. However, most scientists consider these to have been stratigraphically misinterpreted or reworked from the older Naashoibito member.

Alamo Wash fauna 
The following species are known to be present in the Naashoibito Member "Alamo Wash Fauna".

Fish

Amphibians

Testudines

Squamates

Crocodylians

Dinosaurs

Mammals

History of investigation 
The formation was named by Barnum Brown in 1910 for exposures near Ojo Alamo springs in the San Juan Basin. Baltz et al. reassigned the lower beds to the Kirtland Formation in 1966, but this has not been generally accepted.

Mount Sill is one of the fourteeners of the Sierra Nevada in California.  It is located in the Palisades, a group of prominent rock peaks with a few small glaciers on their flanks.  Mount Sill is located 0.6 miles (1 km) east of North Palisade, the high point of the group. The two peaks are connected by a high, rocky ridge, on the north side of which lies the Palisade Glacier.  Mount Sill lies on the main Sierra Crest, but is at a point where the crest turns sharply, giving it particularly striking summit views. On one side is Kings Canyon National Park and Fresno County; on the other is the John Muir Wilderness, Inyo National Forest and Inyo County.

Routes on Mount Sill are found on all sides of the peak and range in difficulty from scrambles () to a moderately technical rock climbs (class 5.7).

The mountain is called Nen-i-mish ("the Guardian of the Valley") by the indigenous Northern Paiute people. Its English name was coined, in 1904, by Joseph LeConte, a noted mountaineer, in honor of American poet Edward Rowland Sill.
