Thomas Nickerson (September 19, 1810 – July 24, 1892) was an American railroad executive. He served as the eighth president of the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway (ATSF), between 1874 and 1880. He was also president of the Atlantic and Pacific Railroad.

Biography 
Nickerson was born in Brewster, Massachusetts, on September 19, 1810. His family was well known for the number of sailors it had produced, and Thomas himself also sailed for nearly 30 years before he turned to land transportation.

Nickerson invested in the ATSF around 1870, becoming the railroad's vice president in May 1873.  The next year, he was promoted to president of the ATSF, succeeding Henry Strong, where he served until 1880. Thomas Nickerson's brother Joseph also served as a railroad executive, and Joseph's son Albert W. Nickerson inherited several million dollars upon his father's death and was made a director of the ATSF and the Mexican Central Railway.

Nickerson didn't limit himself to just the ATSF.  He was also a prominent figure in the Atlantic and Pacific Railroad, Sonora Railway, California Southern Railroad and Mexican Central Railway, all subsidiary companies of the ATSF.

Nickerson died in Newton Center, Massachusetts, on July 24, 1892. His wife had died the year prior; he was survived by three children. The town of Nickerson, Kansas, founded in 1872, is named in his honor.

The Jolimont  is a hill that stretches Southwest to Northeast for about 4 km along the Thielle canal, between the Lake of Neuchâtel and the Lake of Bienne, in the Seeland, Switzerland.

The Jolimont elevation starts in Gampelen till Erlach (fr. Cerlier), where its promontory into the Lake of Bienne builds both the Isthmus and the St. Petersinsel peninsula. North, nestled between it and the Thielle canal lies Gals and, at its southern side, Tschugg.

Vineyards
The sunny side slopes of the Jolimont are ideal for growing grapes, mostly chasselas.

Panorama
The hilltop offers an extraordinary view on the Castle of Erlach, which was erected during the 11th Century, protecting Erlach's picturesque old town, erected on terraces along the steep descend of  "Schlossberg" toward the lake and the St. Petersinsel.

Archaeology
The Jolimont is located within an area rich in archaeological sites, at the side of an important waterway. Local historians have explored the hill since the 14th Century. Isolated objects of almost all areas, undetermined defensive systems and vestiges of Roman housings indicate the early presence of mankind on the summit plateau. Three tumulus excavated in 1847 contained tombs with furniture dating back to the medium Bronze era (including weapons found in the men's tombs from the 2nd Millennium B.C. and the Hallstatt era (approx. 500 B.C.). A Roman road leading to Petinesca (Studen) on the side of the lake of Bienne, passed at the southern side of the Jolimont, reaching the Steiacher  ‘’villa’’ on the Tschugg territory.

The voiced bilabial flap is an uncommon non-rhotic flap. It is usually, and perhaps always, an allophone of the labiodental flap, though it is the preferred allophone in a minority of languages such as Banda and some of its neighbors. 

In Mono, the sound has been described as follows:

And, for allophony between the bilabial and dentolabial flap,

In the literature it has often been transcribed by a w modified by the extra-short diacritic, .

In 2005 the International Phonetic Association adopted the right hook v symbol to represent the labiodental flap. Since then, the received transcription of the bilabial flap involves employing the labiodental flap symbol modified by an advanced diacritic: . Since flaps are similar to brief stops, it could alternatively be transcribed as .

Endre Church () is a medieval church in Endre on the Swedish island of Gotland, in the Diocese of Visby, built from the 12th to early 14th century. It contains medieval murals and several medieval furnishings, and belongs to the Church of Sweden.

History and architecture
The presently visible church was preceded by an older, Romanesque church. Of this church, only the tower, built in the 12th century and heightened in the 14th, remains. A few stone sculptures have also been re-used in the later church, e.g. one sculpture depicting a dragon and another a lion. These are now immured in the southern façade of the church. The rest of the church dates from the 13th century (the choir and sacristy) and the early 14th (the nave). The building material of the church is limestone.

Apart from the aforementioned Romanesque sculptures, the exterior of the church is also adorned with sculpted portals, both Romanesque and Gothic in style.

Internally, the church is decorated with medieval murals made by the artist known as the Master of the Passion of Christ in the middle of the 15th century. The paintings were uncovered during a renovation in 1915. The church also have several preserved stained glass window panes, one of only a few cases of medieval stained glass in Sweden still in its original location. The altarpiece is furthermore medieval, from the late 14th century, as is a preserved church tabernacle. The triumphal cross dates from circa 1300, and the baptismal font, possibly made by the artist Hegvald, is a Romanesque piece from the 12th century, richly decorated.

The church lies in a cemetery that is surrounded by a low limestone wall, in which a medieval lychgate still survives.

Endre Church belongs to the Church of Sweden and lies within the Diocese of Visby.

Jean-Baptiste Kiéthéga is an archeologist and historian from Upper Volta, currently Burkina Faso. Kiéthéga was born on May 10, 1947, in Yako.

He is considered to be one of the first archeologists of West Africa. In course of his career, he was honored with a Prince Claus Award yet in 1998 for his progressions in archeology. At that time he had trained around 40 young scholars in this field, and has taken care that his research was made public in the academic world, as well as to the public via for instance museums.

According to Kiéthéga archaeological research in a developing country like Burkina Faso should not be seen as luxury. He views culture as a dynamic concept.

Since 2005 he is a professor at the University of Ouagadougou.

, who is also known as Shunkō II, was a designer of books and ukiyo-e style Japanese woodblock prints.  He was born in 1762 and designed prints from about 1805 to about 1821.  He initially studied with the Rimpa school artist Tsutsumi Tōrin III.  In 1806 or 1807, Shunsen became a student of Katsukawa Shun'ei, and changed his name from “Kojimachi Shunsen” to “Katsukawa Shunsen”.  In 1820 he succeeded Katsukawa Shunkō I, becoming Katsukawa Shunkō II.  In the late 1820s, he ceased producing woodblock prints and devoted himself to painting ceramics.  He died about 1830.

Shunsen is best known for his genre scenes, landscapes, and prints of beautiful women.

Joseph Gilbert (1732–1831) was a British naval officer who was Master of HMS Resolution on the second voyage of Captain James Cook. As Master he was responsible for a number of specific duties, especially navigation.

He was born in Kirton, Lincolnshire, the youngest child of John Gilbert, a farmer and Churchwarden of Kirton and later Freiston. He joined the Royal Navy and rose to the rank of ship's Master.

Between 1764 and 1769 he was Master of HMS Guernsey which surveyed the coasts of Newfoundland and Labrador. He was afterwards Master of HMS Pearl, which surveyed Plymouth Sound, and then of HMS Asia.

He was then chosen, at the relatively advanced age of 40, by Captain James Cook to be Master of HMS Resolution for his second voyage of discovery. This took place between 1772 and 1775 with the primary objective of locating Terra Australis Incognita, a continent which was presumed to lie in the southern Pacific. As a capable surveyor and draughtsman Gilbert produced several finely drawn charts on the voyage. On their return to England, Cook presented him with his watch.

On retirement from seagoing duties, Gilbert served as a Lieutenant from 1776 to 1791 as Master Attendant at Sheerness,  Woolwich and then Portsmouth Dockyard . His last position was as Master Attendant at Deptford Dockyard between 1791 and 1802.

He retired to Hampshire in 1802 with his unmarried daughter Frances.  His eldest son, George (1759–1786), sailed with Cook on his third voyage. His second son Richard (1767–1848) also served in the Royal Navy.
