George Robert Stephenson (20 October 1819 – 26 October 1905) was a British civil engineer.

Life
Stephenson was born to Robert Stephenson Senior (brother of the famed George Stephenson) in Newcastle upon Tyne. In a family of civil engineers, his father was engineer of Pendleton Colliery and Nantlle Railway, while his uncle George Stephenson and cousin Robert Stephenson were prolific railway engineers. He was educated at King William's College, Isle of Man. It was with Robert that he collaborated most, working together on the South Eastern Railway. Upon Robert's death in 1859 he took over his locomotive works and several collieries.

In the 1860s, Stephenson travelled to New Zealand to supervise the survey and arrangements for the construction of a railway from Christchurch, through Mount Pleasant to Lyttelton Harbour. The Lyttelton rail tunnel is still in use today as the country's oldest operational rail tunnel. Stephenson enjoyed a long association with the country, for which he designed several other works in the mid-nineteenth century.

He is perhaps most famous for his close relationship with the Institution of Civil Engineers. He became a member in 1853 and was elected to the council in 1859. The expansion of the Institution's premises in 1868 was made possible by his donation of land to the rear of his offices at 24 Great George Street. He served as president of the Institution between December 1875 and December 1877.

He married Jane Brown in 1846 and had six children. After Jane died in 1884 he soon remarried to Sarah Harrison who died in 1893.

He died at his home in Cheltenham on 26 October 1905.

Honours 
 1880: Knight in the Order of Leopold.

Sir Francis Lewis Castle Floud KCB KCSI KCMG (18 May 1875 – 17 April 1965) was a British civil servant and diplomat. Very unusually, he received three knighthoods for his public services.

Francis Floud came from a clerical family. He was educated at Cranleigh School and King's College London, having refused to go to Oxford University because he did not wish to enter the church; his younger brother went in his stead. He entered the Board of Agriculture at a junior level in 1894 and, while working there, qualified as a barrister of Lincoln's Inn.

He served in a variety of posts before being appointed, in 1920, the Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries. He was Chairman of the Board of Customs and Excise from 1927 to 1930 and then Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Labour (1930-1934) during the very difficult period following the financial crisis, when unemployment and other benefits were cut by the National government. He served as British High Commissioner to Canada from 1934 to 1938. and was invested as a Knight Commander of the Order of St Michael and St George (KCMG) in the 1938 New Year Honours.

From 1938 to 1940 he chaired the Bengal Land Revenue Commission, for which he was appointed a Knight Commander to the Order of the Star of India (KCSI) in the 1941 New Year Honours and, in his retirement, a number of other public bodies.

Francis Floud married, in 1909, Phyllis, daughter of Colonel Everard A. Ford. They had two sons, Peter Floud and Bernard Floud MP and a daughter Phyllis, who married Peter du Sautoy.

Richard Edmed (14 February 1904 – 14 February 1984) was an English footballer best known for his time playing for Liverpool.

Life and playing career

Born in Gillingham, Kent, Edmed played for Chatham Centrals, Rochester and Gillingham before being signed by Liverpool manager Matt McQueen in January 1926 for £1800. He couldn't have made his debut in a more important game if he had tried, it was the visit to Anfield by bitter rivals Manchester United in a Division One match on 28 August 1926, Liverpool made it a happy day for Edmed as they beat United 4–2 with Dick Forshaw bagging a hat-trick, his goalscoring account was opened 6 days later on 4 September at the Baseball Ground, but Derby County won the game 2–1.

Edmed, a winger, went straight into the starting line-up and stayed there for the rest of his first season missing only four matches. He, again, couldn't be shifted from his spot the following year when he was an ever-present, along with Tom Bromilow, scoring 14 times, he was the club's spot-kick taker which helped him score as many as he did from the wide position. He was to score two more (16) the following season, missing just three games, this total was even more remarkable as his penalty duties were given to Robert Done.

He started the next campaign and was again a permanent fixture in the side until he picked an injury towards the end of the season. He was to play just a dozen times during the 1930–31 campaign and eventually lost his place to Harold Barton.

After spending six years at the club, appearing 170 times and scoring 46 goals, Edmed was allowed to leave and joined his final club, Bolton Wanderers, in May 1932.

He scored on his Bolton debut, ironically against Liverpool, in an 8–1 win for his new team at Burnden Park.

He died on his birthday 14 February 1984.

Donzella Petty-John, known professionally as Nella Dodds (born January 25, 1950) is an American soul singer and actress.  Born in Havre de Grace, Maryland, United States, she recorded six released singles for Wand Records between 1964 and 1966. Her records are popular on the Northern soul scene.

Singles
"Come See About Me" / "You Don't Love Me Anymore" - 1964 (Wand 167) Reached number 74 in Billboard chart, November 28, 1964
"Finders Keepers, Losers Weepers" / "A Girl's Life" - 1964 (Wand 171) Reached number 96 in Billboard chart, January 16, 1965
"Your Love Back" / "P's And Q's" - 1965 (Wand 178)
"Come Back Baby" / "Dream Boy" - 1965 (Wand 187)
"Gee Whiz" / "Maybe Baby" - 1966 (Wand 1111)
"Honey Boy" / "I Just Gotta Have You" - 1966 (Wand 1136)

"Come See About Me"
The Supremes, whilst being the first to record "Come See About Me", were not the first to issue it as a single. That distinction fell to Dodds, and her version started selling, climbing to #74 on the Billboard Hot 100, but Motown quickly released the Supremes' version as a single, which killed sales of Dodds's version.

Compilation album - This is a Girl's Life
Although Dodds was scheduled to have a vinyl album released in the mid 1960s, it was never released. "This Is A Girl's Life" includes all 12 tracks released as singles plus an additional three that were not released at the time.  The tracks were recorded for Philadelphia's Dyno-Dynamic Productions (leased by New York's Wand label) between 1964 and 1966. The CD was released in 2007.

BCDMOS is a complex circuit composed of Bipolar, CMOS and LDMOS devices.

BCDMOS technology allows to drive discrete high voltage components (several hundred of operating voltage) at high frequency while keeping high integration with technology nodes down to 40 nm or 22 nm. Many applications still use process node of 0.35μm in 2023.

Application of this type of circuits are find in automotive, audio amplifier, RF, industry, silicon photomultiplier (SiPM).

History
ST invented the BCD (Bipolar-CMOS-DMOS) technology - revolutionary at the time - in the mid-eighties and has continually developed it ever since. BCD is a family of silicon processes, each of which combines the strengths of three different process technologies onto a single chip.

Features
According to Maxim website, it is an innovative process characteristics that provides the following features:
 high break-down voltage but small transistors,
 quite low on-resistance, which is important for the integration of multiple power FETs of low resistivity,
 double-metal-layer to support hi-current
 combining thin film and poly-poly caps (in silicon). High-accuracy references can be integrated.
According to Dongbu HiTek's news, it claims to launch the first 0.18-micrometre BCDMOS process in industry. The new process integrates logic, analog and hi-voltage functions to reduce size.

The purplish jacamar (Galbula chalcothorax) is a species of bird in the family Galbulidae. It is found in Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, and Peru.

Taxonomy and systematics

The purplish jacamar is monotypic. It and bronzy jacamar (Galbula leucogastra) were formerly considered conspecific; they now form a superspecies.

Description

The purplish jacamar is  long and weighs . The male's crown and face are blackish green and have a bluish sheen. The upper parts and breast vary from metallic reddish purple to a coppery red. It has a white throat and a belly that appears speckled black and white. The female differs by having yellow-brown or buff throat and belly.

Distribution and habitat

The purplish jacamar is found in the western Amazon Basin from southeast Colombia's Putumayo and Amazonas Departments south through eastern Ecuador into eastern Peru and east into Brazil as far as the Juruá River in Amazonas state. It inhabits edges, openings, and the canopy in terra firme forest, both primary and secondary. It is also found in woodland on sandy soils and along watercourses. It primarily ranges in elevation up to  but has been found as high as  in Ecuador.

Behavior

Feeding

The purplish jacamar's diet has not been documented, but is assumed to be a variety of flying insects. It perches by itself or in small groups, mostly in the shrub layer, and sallies out to catch its prey. It sometimes joins mixed-species foraging flocks.

Breeding

No information is available about the purplish jacamar's breeding phenology.

Vocalization

The purplish jacamar's song is similar to that of other jacamars, a rising series "weeee weeee wi-deee wi-deee wi-deee wi-deee" that sometimes ends with a trill . Its call is "weeee" .

Status

The IUCN has assessed the purplish jacamar as being of Least Concern. However, it is not well known and appears to be generally uncommon. "It is probably threatened to some extent by forest degradation and habitat loss."

LOVE Park, officially known as  John F. Kennedy Plaza, is a public park located in Center City, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The park is nicknamed LOVE Park for its reproduction of Robert Indiana's 1970 LOVE sculpture which overlooks the plaza. 

The area has a following in the skate world, as it served as a skateboarding spot for many years.

History
Former Philadelphia city planner Edmund Bacon and architect Vincent G. Kling planned and designed the original LOVE Park. The park is across from the Philadelphia City Hall and serves as a visual terminus for the Benjamin Franklin Parkway.

The park was built in 1965 and covered an underground parking garage. The main feature of the plaza became a centrally-located single spout fountain added in 1969. The city's visitor center (built in 1960, before LOVE Park) was closed for five years, but re-opened in 2006 as The Fairmount Park Welcome Center. The park was dedicated in 1967 as John F. Kennedy Plaza after President John F. Kennedy.

A "LOVE" sculpture, designed by Robert Indiana, was first placed in the plaza in 1976 as part of the  United States Bicentennial celebration. The sculpture was removed in 1978 after the celebration ended. However, the chairman of Philadelphia Art Commission, Fitz Eugene Dixon Jr., was able to purchase the sculpture and to have it permanently placed it in the plaza during that year.

From 2016 to 2018, a major reconstruction project converted the largely hardscaped plaza  into a greener space that contains large and small lawns for casual uses, two gardens and 2 green stormwater basins with tropical and native plantings, an open viewshed of City Hall and the Benjamin Franklin Parkway, new cafe seating, and daily recreational games. A redesigned fountain features a large central jet and a "bird's nest" of smaller jets with programmable up-lighting within a large oval paved area.

Slow bread is made using very little yeast. An extended amount of time is required to ferment the dough before baking. A benefit of this recipe is that the starch in the flour absorbs the water much more effectively. During the period of rest, the yeast multiplies and develops by-products like alcohol and acetic and lactic acids.

The structure of the crumb is also much more open.

Because the starch and gluten in the dough is "opened up" during the production process, the bread is easier to digest compared to bread made using the newest technology.
