Maria Elisabeth of Schleswig-Holstein-Gottorp (6 June 1634, in Gottorp Castle – 17 June 1665, in Darmstadt), was by marriage landgravine of Hesse-Darmstadt

Life 
Mary Elizabeth was a daughter of the Frederick III of Schleswig-Holstein-Gottorp (1597–1659) from his marriage to Duchess Marie Elisabeth of Saxony (1610–1684), a daughter of John George I, Elector of Saxony.

She married on 24 November 1650 at Gottorp Castle, Louis, who later became Louis VI, Landgrave of Hesse-Darmstadt (1630–1678), whom she had engaged on his birthday in 1649. On the occasion of the wedding, the last sword dance in Hesse was performed at a festival in Lollar.

His father drew Louis into the government business in the year after their marriage in 1651. Louis succeeded his father in 1661. Louis tied extensive political relations with Sweden via Maria Elizabeth's sister Hedvig Eleonora, Queen of Sweden. Marie Elisabeth had eight children; she died in 1665 in child birth. Her death plunged Louis into deep mourning.  He wrote some poems in memory of his wife.

Offspring 
From her marriage, Marie Elisabeth had the following children:
 Magdalena Sybille (1652–1712)
 married in 1673 Duke William Louis of Württemberg (1647–1677)
 Sophie Eleonore (born and died 1653)
 George (1654–1655)
 Marie Elisabeth (1656–1715)
 married in 1676 Duke Henry of Saxe-Römhild (1650–1710)
 Auguste Magdalene (1657–1674)
 Louis VII (1658–1678), Landgrave of Hesse-Darmstadt
 Frederick (1659–1676)
 Marie Sophie (1661–1712)
 married in 1681 Duke Christian of Saxe-Eisenberg (1653–1707)

The M.C. Kiser Company Building is a historic building in Atlanta, Georgia, United States. Located in the South Downtown neighborhood, it was built in 1923 as a shoe factory, converted to apartments in 2017, and added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2019.

History 
The building was constructed in 1923 to house the M.C. Kiser Company, a shoe manufacturing company founded in Atlanta in the late 1800s. The company, described in a 1920 article of The Atlanta Constitution as “one of the most important business establishments of Atlanta,” had outgrown its previous facilities, and this building was constructed primarily as a factory, warehouse, and retail center for their Shield Brand Shoes line. The company used the building until 1933, and afterwards it was used by various commercial entities.

In March 2016, local developer Gallman Development Group announced plans to convert the building to an apartment building. Gallman, which had previously converted warehouses in Atlanta's Castleberry Hill neighborhood to lofts, planned to convert the building to an "industrial chic" living space, and that month secured $8.5 million in funding. Initially, they planned to open in spring 2017. However, construction was prevented from starting until January 2017. A report in July stated that the building would house 36 one-bedroom apartments and five two-bedroom apartments, with a Curbed Atlanta article from July stating that the property could be marketed as student housing due to its proximity to Georgia State University.

On May 28, 2019, the property was added to the National Register of Historic Places.

Design and architecture 
The brick building features three stories with a basement. As it was originally built, the bottom floor was used primarily for retail, while the upper two floors were used for warehousing and as a factory. The exterior of the building features minimal ornamentation or design. The structure is an example of "mill" or "slow-burning" architecture, designed for fire prevention.

Waveform shaping in electronics is the modification of the shape of an electronic waveform. It is in close connection with waveform diversity  and waveform design, which are extensively studied in signal processing. Shaping the waveforms
are of particular interest in active sensing (radar, sonar) for better detection performance, as well as communication schemes (CDMA, frequency hopping), and biology (for animal stimuli design).

Aravaipa Creek is a drainage between three mountain ranges in southwest Graham County, Arizona – the Galiuro Mountains, the Santa Teresa Mountains and the Pinaleno Mountains. These mountains are part of the high altitude Madrean Sky Islands located in southern Arizona and New Mexico in the United States, and northern Sonora and Chihuahua states in Mexico.

Aravaipa Creek originates on the southeast flank of the Galiuro Mountains at Durkee Canyon and Blue Peak at . It then flows northwest through the narrow, fault-blocked Aravaipa Valley with the Pinaleno Mountains bordering the valley on the east and the Santa Teresa Mountains bordering on the northeast. On the west side of the valley, the creek follows the northeast and north perimeter of the Galiuro Mountains massif flowing northwest, west, and then southwest through and around the range's north end to meet the San Pedro River a few miles south of Dudleyville.

The town of Klondyke is located in the heart of the Aravaipa Valley about 35 miles west from Eden which is located on U.S. Route 70. There is also access to Klondyke via Arizona State Route 266 to Bonita (passing near Fort Grant) and thence on a gravel road north through the valley. Bonita may also be accessed by gravel road north from Willcox.

West of Klondyke in the Galiuro Mountains is the location of the well known Power's Cabin shootout. The former populated area of Aravaipa is located at the end of the Klondyke Road on the slopes of the Santa Teresa Mountains, north of Klondyke.

Aravaipa Canyon at the north end of the Galiuro Mountains contains the Aravaipa Canyon Wilderness. The creek goes northwest then southwest through the canyon and downstream about  to meet the San Pedro River and Arizona State Route 77 between Dudleyville and Mammoth. Access to the eastern end of the wilderness is located north of Klondyke on the Klondyke Road.

Cooper Harold Langford III  (October 14, 1934 – March 11, 2018) was an American-born Canadian chemist.

He was born to the philosopher Cooper Harold Langford and his first wife, Susan Coffman, in Ann Arbor, Michigan on October 14, 1934. He attended Harvard University as an undergraduate, and Northwestern University for graduate studies. His work at Northwestern and his postgraduate work at University College London and Columbia University resulted in the publication (with Harry_B._Gray) of Ligand Substitution Processes (1966). The Langford-Gray classification remains an important tool to describe the mechanics of inorganic chemical reactions.

Langford taught at Amherst College in Amherst, Massachusetts, Carleton University in Ottawa, Canada, Concordia University in Montreal, Canada, and the University of Calgary in Calgary, Canada.

Committed throughout his life both to undergraduate teaching and research, his interests continued to expand throughout his career. His research in photochemistry contributed to environmental science (particularly soil decontamination, waste treatment, and small-community water systems). In collaboration with his wife, the economic historian Dr. Martha Whitney Langford (b. 1938- d. 2009), he pursued research into science policy in Canada, as well as the dynamics of scientific, economic, and entrepreneurial innovation.

He served as associate vice-rector for research at Concordia University, and as vice-president (Research) at the University of Calgary, as well as many roles in federal and provincial research agencies, and scientific organizations, including the Arctic Institute of North America, THECIS (The Center for Innovation Studies). and the Calgary Science Center (later known as Telus Spark). He was granted fellowship of the Royal Society of Canada in 1992. 

Langford was the co-author of two significant introductory chemistry textbooks. The Development of Chemical Principles  (1969, reprinted 1995, with Ralph A. Beebe) was designed to guide undergraduate students through the fundamentals of chemistry by following the history of their development. He also co-wrote the first and second editions of Inorganic Chemistry (1990, with Peter Atkins and Duard F. Shriver).

Cooper died of pancreatic cancer on March 11, 2018, while seeking treatment at the Vernon Jubilee Hospital in Vernon, British Columbia.

Knightsbridge Estates Trust Ltd v Byrne [1940] AC 613 is a UK insolvency law case, concerning the creation of a security interest.

Facts
Knightsbridge Estates wished to pay off the principle sum of the £310,000 loan from Mr Byrne’s insurance company. However, the contract stated the repayments would be made over 40 years, twice a year. If Knightsbridge paid off the principal early, it would reduce the total amount of interest it would pay to Mr Byrne. Knightsbridge Estates argued that the long repayment schedule was a clog on the equity of redemption. Byrne argued that because the loan counted as a debenture, under Companies Act 1929 section 74 (now Companies Act 2006, section 739) it was exempt from the rule of equity on clogs of redemption and the contract stayed as it was created.

In the Court of Appeal, Lord Greene MR held that the loan was a debenture. He said that this was ‘a commercial agreement between two important corporations, experienced in such matters, and has none of the features of an oppressive bargain.’

Judgment
The House of Lords upheld the Court of Appeal. Viscount Maugham gave the leading judgment holding that the loan was a debenture. He added that it could be a debenture for this provision of the Act, even if a mortgage might not be a debenture under every provision of the Act.

Lord Wright and Lord Atkin concurred.

Lord Romer gave a concurring judgment holding that the mortgage constituted a debenture under the Companies Act 1929 section 380 and was therefore not void under Companies Act 1929, section 74.

Lord Porter concurred.

Kirk Sandall railway station serves the suburb of Kirk Sandall in Doncaster, South Yorkshire, England. The station is  north of Doncaster on the South Humberside Main Line. The current station opened by British Rail in 1991 and is not on the site of the original station, which was about  up the line eastwards.

Facilities
The station consists of a single concrete island platform located between the inner 'fast' lines on the quad track section of route between Marshgate Junction, Doncaster and Thorne Junction.  It is unstaffed but there is a ticket machine near to the car park entrance.  A single waiting shelter is the only structure on the platform apart from bench seating, timetable posters and customer information screens.  Both platforms are fully accessible by means of a long inclined ramp from the main entrance on the road above.

Service
The station provides an hourly service eastbound to Hull during the daytime Monday through Saturday and a two-hourly service to .  Westbound service comprises either one or two trains per hour to Doncaster. There are no longer any regular services to Meadowhall and  since the spring 2019 timetable change apart from a single late evening working.  Passengers must change at Doncaster for onward connections. The service towards Scunthorpe formerly ran hourly, but was curtailed during the pandemic in 2020 and has not been fully reinstated.

TransPennine Express serves the station with a single eastbound Monday-Saturday service to  in the late evening. There is no return service westbound.

In February 2013 the line northeast of Hatfield and Stainforth station towards Thorne was blocked by the Hatfield Colliery landslip, with all services over the section halted. The line reopened in July 2013.

Pollution is an environmental issue in New Zealand with a number of measures being taken to reduce its severity. New Zealand is sometimes viewed as being "clean and green" but this can be refuted due to pollution levels, among other factors. New Zealand does have a relatively low air pollution level, but some areas have high levels of plastic pollution.

Types

Water pollution

Water pollution in New Zealand varies depending on the level of development in the water catchment areas. In recent years concerns have been raised about the effect of intensification of dairy farming on water quality. The Drying and Clean Streams Accord was established to address problems with water pollution due to dairy farming.

Marine pollution

Fertiliser runs off farms and yards into nearby rivers and streams, which carry it out to the ocean. It is also carried by the cloud and when it rains it drops in the ocean, which is carried by the current.

Air pollution
Smog was a problem in Christchurch.

New Zealand has a relatively unique greenhouse gas emissions profile. In 2007, agriculture contributed 48.2% of total emissions, energy (including transport); 43.2%, industry; 6.1%, waste; 2.4%. In other Kyoto Protocol Annex 1 countries, agriculture typically contributes about 11% of total emissions. From 1990 to 2007, total greenhouse gas emissions in New Zealand increased by 22.1%. Emission increases by sector were - agriculture; 12.1%, energy; 39.2%, industry; 35.0%. Only the small waste sector reduced emissions, by 25.3%.

TY Pyxidis is an eclipsing binary star in the constellation Pyxis. The apparent magnitude ranges from 6.85 to 7.5 over 3.2 days.

The two components are both of spectral type G5IV, have a mass of 1.2 solar masses and revolve around each other every 3.2 days. Each star is around 2.2 times the diameter of the Sun.

The system is classified as either a RS Canum Venaticorum variable or a BY Draconis variable, stars that vary on account of prominent starspot activity, and lies 184 ± 5 light years away. The system emits X-rays, and analysing the emission curve over time led Pres and colleagues to conclude that there was a loop of material arcing between the two stars.
