Mary Alice Fish Moffett (April 8, 1870 – July 12, 1912) was an American Presbyterian medical missionary in Korea, with her husband Samuel A. Moffett.

Early life 
Mary Alice Fish was born in Virginia City, Nevada, the daughter of Charles Hull Fish and Martha Ann Warner Fish. Her father, a mining company president, was born in New York, and her mother was born in Illinois. Her father was active in Presbyterian mission work in San Rafael, California, teaching Bible classes for Chinese men at the YMCA for over twenty years.

She graduated from Santa Rosa Seminary (also known as Miss Chase's Seminary) in 1890. She earned her medical degree at Cooper Medical College in San Francisco in 1895, and served her residency at the Lying-In Charity Hospital in Philadelphia.

Career 
Alice Fish first traveled to Korea in 1897, sponsored by her home church and the Benicia Presbyterial. She worked there as a Presbyterian medical missionary and Bible study teacher until her death in 1912, except for furloughs in 1902, 1906, 1908, and 1910. She reported about her efforts in Korea in Woman's Work, an American church periodical. She married a fellow American missionary, Samuel Austin Moffett, and assisted his work in Pyongyang, as founder of a theological seminary and first president of the Presbytery of Northern Korea. On their visits to the United States, both Moffetts spoke to church groups about their work.

Personal life 
Mary Alice Fish married Samuel Austin Moffett in 1899, in Seoul. She had two sons, James and Charles, who were young children when she died from dysentery soon after childbirth with a stillborn daughter in 1912, aged 42 years, in Pyongyang. 

Moffett's widower remarried in 1915, to her first cousin, Lucia Hester Fish. Both of her sons became Presbyterian ministers, and Charles was a missionary in India for 14 years. The Moffett Korea Collection at the Princeton Theological Seminary includes correspondence involving Alice Fish Moffett.

What Shadows We Pursue (2003), subtitled Ghost Stories, Volume Two, is a posthumously published collection of short stories by Russell Kirk (1918–1994). It is the second of two such hardcover collections from Ash-Tree Press, a noted contemporary publisher of classic ghost stories. Together with the previous companion volume, Off the Sand Road (2002), it contains the entire corpus of Kirk's short fiction—the only such undertaking by any publisher—including some pieces not easily categorized as ghost stories.

This limited edition book was edited and has an introduction by John Pelan. Its dust jacket front features a woodcut illustration by Kirk himself, with the same illustration reprinted on page 248 of the text. The whole volume is xiv + 254 pages long and, according to the volume's colophon, "was published on 28 March 2003 and is limited to Five Hundred copies with additional copies produced for legal deposit and contractual purposes." The texts are reprinted with Canadian/UK-style spelling and punctuation in accordance with the Canadian publisher's policy, though Kirk was an American.

The earlier companion volume, Off the Sand Road, misprinted the story, "Fate's Purse". In this volume, the story's full text is restored as an appendix. A note, on page 228 of What Shadows We Pursue, explains: "Unfortunately, a production error led to the final four paragraphs of the story being omitted from [the earlier] edition. To correct the error, we have preferred to include the full text of the story in this, the second volume."

This collection is named after one of its stories, "What Shadows We Pursue", which first appeared in the January, 1953, issue of The Magazine of Fantasy and Science Fiction.

Rudbar () (Gilaki:, rubâr) is a city and capital of Rudbar County, Gilan Province, Iran.  At the 2006 census, its population was 11,454, in 3,303 families.

Rudbar is  from Tehran and with a variable climate. It is located on the fringes of a valley through which the Sefid River (Rud-e Safid) flows. Rudbar can be considered as a gateway to the Gīlān Province from central Iran.

Its name (meaning "by the river" in Persian) is a reference to the river named Sepid Rood (Sepid Roud) that passes by the city. Rudbar is also called "Roodbar Zeitoun (olive)" for the olive gardens in the area.

Rudbar's local economy notably includes olives and olive-based products.  Groves of olive trees surround the city.  Olive oil is produced locally.  Rudbar is also known for its cream-hued, handcrafted carpets of fine quality.   Despite the olive gardens that may suggest presence of a Mediterranean climate, the winters are very cold in the area. The winds in the Sepid Rood valley (Manjil) are well known in the country.

Main language there is the Gilaki Language. Larger cities in Gilan have slight variations to the way they speak. These "sub-dialects" are Rashti, Rudbari, Some’e Sarai, Lahijani, Langerudi, Rudesari, Bandar Anzali and Fumani. The majority of the people in Rudbar are Gilaks, and a minority are Talysh. They speak the Talysh Language with Galeshi Dialect and the Gilaki Language with Rudbari Sub-dialect.

History

The civilization of Rudbar and its surroundings date back to 2000 years BCE. The Marlik bowl, a famous archeological artifact and one of the oldest gold bowls in the world from 1st millennium BC, was found there. With the advent of Islam, tribes from Damascus and Halab (Aleppo) immigrated and became settlers there. Later, Nizari Isma'ili da'i made inroads and eventually established an Assassin stronghold.  In the era of Nader Shah Afshar, groups from the Kurds of Quchan and areas of northern Khorassan also settled there.

Rudbar was near the epicenter of the 1990 Manjil–Rudbar earthquake of magnitude 7.3 on the Richter scale (MS=7.7, MW=7.3, mb=6.4) at 12:31am local time on June 21, 1990, that killed around 50,000 and injured 100,000 city residents. Despite reconstruction, it has not regained its former glory.

Cassipourea malosana is a species of plant native to tropical Africa.

Description
Cassipourea malosana is an evergreen shrub or tree, growing to 25 or 30 meters in height, and occasionally up to 45 meters, with a rounded crown. The tree has a straight unbuttressed trunk which can be up to 60 cm in diameter and unbranched up to 20 meters from the ground. The bark is smooth and pale. The leaves are lanceolate, 3 to 10 mm long and 1 to 5 mm wide, with a glossy upper surface and a matte underside.

Distribution and habitat

Cassipourea malosana is native to the mountains of Eastern and Central Africa, from Eritrea through Ethiopia, Somalia, Kenya, Uganda, the eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo, Tanzania, Malawi, Mozambique, Eswatini, and South Africa. There is an outlier population in the Cameroon Highlands of Cameroon.

Cassipourea malosana is found in dry Afromontane forests, often with African juniper (Juniperus procera), Afrocarpus spp., Podocarpus spp., and Olea spp., and as an under-canopy tree in moist Afromontane forests. It is generally found between 1700 and 2600 meters elevation, and occasionally as low as 1100 meters.

Uses
The tree has fine and even-textured wood, and produces hard and heavy timber. It is exploited artisanally and commercially in East Africa, and is usually harvested from the wild. It is also used for firewood.

The tree is occasionally grown as a shade or ornamental tree, and is planted in reforestation projects and for erosion control. Its flowers are a good source of nectar for bees.

The bark has some local medicinal uses. It is cooked in soups to restore strength, made into a tea to help remove a placenta after birth, and applied to skin to treat skin ailments and sunburn and to lighten skin.

Jiehkkevárri (alternative spellings: Jiekkevarri, Jiekkevarre, or Jæggevarre) is a mountain on the border of the municipalities of Lyngen and Tromsø in Troms og Finnmark county, Norway. It is the highest mountain in Troms og Finnmark and has the second highest prominence (primary factor) among Norwegian mountains. The  tall mountain sits about  northeast of the village of Lakselvbukt and about  southwest of the village of Lyngseidet.

The first people known to have climbed it were Geoffrey Hastings (British) and Elias Hogrenning (Norwegian) in 1899. Its summit is ice-capped and any ascent involves a crossing of crevassed glaciers. Therefore, climbing it needs guiding by experienced mountaineers.

In winter, an experienced ski-mountaineer can traverse Jiehkkevárri in one long day, descending almost from the top via the steep, northeast facing couloir, described by the late Andreas Fransson as "a future classic for the new generation of mountain skiers". The descent route is exposed to serac fall from above, and is generally not recommended for ascending.

Name
The name is a compound of the Sami language words jiehkki which means "glacier" and várri which means "mountain".

The Court of Appeal for Northern Norrland () is a court of appeal with a court district covering the entire area of Västerbotten County and Norrbotten County. The court has its seat in Umeå, in one of the few masonry buildings still standing after the great Umeå city fire in 1888, which destroyed most of the city.

The building for teachers 
The large white building, built in 1886–1887 and one of the oldest in the city, was designed in a neo-Renaissance style by the architect Johan Nordquist. Because it was not made of wood it was one of the few buildings to survive the Umeå city fire of 1888. The first few years the house was used as a school for educating Volksschule teachers. The building housed the principal's residence, classrooms, an auditorium and the gym. The building was surrounded by a small park.

In the 1920s the building was no longer used as a school and during some subsequent years it served as Civic Center with both a library and a museum. The large auditorium was used as a theater and concert hall.

In the 1950s the house was built out towards the east and west. The inside of the house was later renovated several times, most recently in 1999.

The Court of Appeal 

On December 16, 1936 king Gustaf V inaugurated the Court of Appeal for Northern Norrland. The court had been separated from Svea Court of Appeal in order to reduce Svea Court's workload.

Organization 
The President of the Court of Appeal is Margareta Bergström since 2012. She succeeded Anders Iacobaeus. The president presides over an administrative department and a judicial department, which in turn are composed of members of the court, and a processing unit.

Charles Davis Norton (November 20, 1820 – April 11, 1867) was an American government official.

Early life
Norton was born on November 20, 1820, in Hartford, Connecticut. He was the son of Lucretia ( Huntington) Horton and Capt. Joseph G. Norton (d. 1844), a well-known shipping merchant of Hartford.

His maternal grandfather was the Rev. Dr. Joseph Huntington, a Congregationalist minister of Coventry, Connecticut. His grandfather was the brother of Samuel Huntington, a Governor of Connecticut and signor of the U.S. Declaration of Independence. His uncle, Samuel Huntington Jr., served as the 3rd Governor of Ohio before becoming Chief Justice of the Ohio Supreme Court.

After preparing for college under private tutors, he attended Union College in Schenectady, New York, where he graduated with honors in 1840.

Career
In 1827, he moved to Black Rock, New York, where his father had a dry-goods business with Judah Bliss known as Norton & Bliss. In 1830, they moved to nearby Buffalo. In 1839, he entered the law office of Horatio Shumway, with whom he continued his legal studies until 1841. He was admitted to the bar in 1843.

An ardent Whig, he supported the presidential prospects of Henry Clay. In 1849, he was elected City Attorney of Buffalo and in 1851 he was elected Surrogate of Erie County. In 1865, President Andrew Johnson appointed him Collector of the Port of Buffalo to succeed Christian Metz Jr., who had been appointed during the Lincoln administration. Norton served in this role until his death in 1867 after which Joseph K. Tyler was appointed to succeed him.

In 1865, Norton published The Old Ferry at the Black Rock, a book of the history of the ferry that crossed the Niagara River from the "black rock" near the foot of Fort Street to the Canadian shore from the time of the American Revolution.

Personal life
In October 1851, Norton was married to Jeannette Phelps (1822–1889), a daughter of Oliver Phelps (grandson of U.S. Representative Oliver Phelps) and Laura ( Chapin) Phelps of Canandaigua, New York. Her grandmother, Elizabeth "Betsy" Law ( Sherman) Phelps, was the granddaughter of founding father Roger Sherman. Together, they were the parents of two sons:

 Porter Norton (1853–1918), a lawyer who married Jennie H. Watson, daughter of Stephen Van Rensselaer Watson and Charlotte ( Sherman) Watson of Buffalo.
 Charles Phelps Norton (1858–1923), a lawyer who became the 6th Chancellor of the University of Buffalo.

Norton died on April 11, 1867, in Buffalo. After a funeral at the First Presbyterian Church of Buffalo, he was buried at Forest Lawn Cemetery, Buffalo. His widow lived until September 10, 1889.

Descendants
Through his eldest son Porter, he was a grandfather of Porter Huntington Norton (who married Gilbertine Love Coakley) and Gertrude Van Dolfson Norton (who married Daniel Willard Streeter).
