'Alba' - pure white flowers. 
'Backup Mother' - vigorous. Flowers medium pink with white throat.
'Spotty' - flowers rose-purple with odd random white spots and unpigmented, short stripes. Bred by Hannibal.

The species has also been used in a number of hybrids commonly cultivated.
Crinum × herbertii G.Don ex Loud. (C. bulbispermum × C. scabrum)
Crinum × powellii hort. ex Baker (C. bulbispermum × C. moorei) The most hardy of all Crinum species.

Cultivation and uses
This is one of the most commonly cultivated species, grown as an ornamental plant for its flowers. It is best grown in deep soils that receive and hold a lot of water during the growing season and should be left to grow in the same place without disturbance for many years. Plants require full sun. They also make good container plants. The species is hardy to USDA zone 6 or −10 °C if the bulb is protected. Propagation is by division or seeds. Seedlings will flower in their third or fourth year.

Biçənək, anglicized as Bichanak and Bichenek, is a village and municipality in the Shahbuz District of Nakhchivan, Azerbaijan. It is located in the near of the Yevlakh-Lachin-Nakhchivan highway, 24 km in the north-east from the district center, on both banks of the Nakhchivanchay river. Its population is busy with gardening and animal husbandry. There are a secondary school, club, library and a medical center in the village. It has a population of 1,172. Nearby in the east is located old Farhad house and the Xınzirək, the place of residence of the Middle Ages.

Etymology
There are different opinions about the meaning of the name of "Bichanak". The present population of the village, explains the meaning of the name of "Bichanak" as "the place which cuts the grass". But all the researchers deny this idea and explains, the origin of the name with the name of an ancient Turkish "Pecenek // Becenek" tribe. Pecenek tribe is the one of the Oghuz tribes which Mahmud al-Kashgari has mentioned in his work "Dīwānu l-Luġat al-Turk". The fact is reflected in the work "Secerei-terakime" of the Turkish Sultan Əbulqazi  Bahadur Khan. For the first time acad. Ziya Bunyadov wrote that in the "Bichanak" toponym is reflected the name of the ancient Turkish tribe of "Pecenek // Becenek". The word of "Bichanak"  as an ancient toponym preserves the name of the "Pecenek // Becenek" tribe.

History
The modern village was founded in the second half of the 19th century as Karmalinovka by Spiritual Christians from Russia, some of whom were Pryguny. In 1919 they abandoned the village, and in 1920 it was renamed to Biçənək, after a medieval village that existed here, and repopulated mostly by Azeris from the neighbouring village of Khynzirak and Zarnatun, later from the Almaly.

Xınzirək (Khynzirak) is a village which existed in the district of the Shahbuz. It was located in the west bank of the Bichanak River. In 1920, its population moved to the Bichanak village. Near to the village there is a place of residence built in the Middle Ages (14th to 17th centuries); the area is 2000 square metres. There are the ruins of houses and the remains of the buildings in the village.

Almalı (Almaly)—according to the administrative-territorial division—was the settlement area of the Shahbuz region of Nakhchivan AR. In accordance of the decision of the Transcaucasian Central Executive Committee dated February 18, 1929, the Almaly village of the district of the Shahbuz, together with other nine villages of Nakhchivan ASSR, with their arable and pasture lands, were illegally annexed to the Armenian SSR. It is claimed to have been a flagrant violation of the terms of the Treaty of Moscow (1921) and the Treaty of Kars (1921)  and the norms of international law.

Zərnətün (Zarnatun) is a village which existed in the district of the Shahbuz, in the north-west from the Bichanak village, on the bank of the Zarnatun River. Its population has moved to the Bichanak in 1962.

Wright Investors' Service Holdings, Inc., formerly National Patent Development Corporation, is a United States company (a Delaware corporation headquartered in Mount Kisco, New York) which is primarily a shell company.

National Patent Development Corporation (NPD) was incorporated in Delaware in 1959 by three New York City lawyers, Jerome Feldman, Martin M. Pollak, and Jess Larson.

In 1961 Feldman and Pollak wrote a letter to Nikita Khrushchev proposing to buy US rights to inventions made in the USSR. The Soviet leadership agreed to cooperate and after three weeks in the USSR, NPD experts conferred with around 250 Soviet specialists and ultimately won patent rights to 14 inventions to be marketed in the United States by signing an agreement with Amtorg.

Using their Soviet connections, NPD then made inquiries in other Eastern bloc countries. In Czechoslovakia they met Otto Wichterle, the inventor of modern soft contact lenses. Then NPD bought the American rights to produce the lenses and sublicensed them to Bausch & Lomb which started to manufacture them in the USA.

On December 19, 2012, NPD completed the merger of a wholly owned subsidiary of the company with and into The Winthrop Corporation.

In 2013 NPD changed the name to Wright Investors` Service Holdings, Inc.

On July 17, 2018, Wright Investors’ Service Holdings, Inc. (WISH) sold 100% of the issued and outstanding common stock of The Winthrop Corporation (Winthrop), a wholly owned subsidiary of WISH, to Khandwala Capital Management, Inc.  Winthrop, through its wholly owned subsidiary Wright Investors' Service, Inc., is an investment management and financial advisory firm.

Maraunenhof was a suburban quarter of northern Königsberg, Germany. Its territory is now part of the Leningradsky District of Kaliningrad, Russia.

History

The estate Maraunenhof, originally Maraunen, was located in the forest west of the Oberteich and north of Tragheim since 1571. It was named after an Old Prussian farmer named Maraun, who acquired the land from Löbenicht in 1605. In 1651 it was reacquired by Löbenicht. In 1798 it was documented as the Gasthaus Maraunenhof.

Part of the estate of Maraunenhof was transferred from the rural district of Königsberg (Landkreis Königsberg i. Pr.) into the city of Königsberg (Stadtkreis Königsberg i. Pr) on 1 April 1905, with the remainder following on 10 June 1927. A break was made in Königsberg's city walls near the Wrangel Tower (Wrangelturm) in 1906 to allow construction of a road north through Tragheimsdorf to Maraunenhof. The Königsberger Terrain-Aktiengesellschaft Oberteich-Marauenhof, a private development company, built Maraunenhof into a suburb of upper class villas along the northern shore of the Oberteich ca. 1911. Parks in Maraunenhof included Max-Aschmann-Park, named after the merchant Max Aschmann, and the scenic Stadtgärtnerei, established by Garden Inspector Paul Käber (1869-1919).

The quarter's mostly Protestant residents attended the Herzog-Albrecht-Gedächtniskirche at König-Ottokar-platz, named after King Ottokar II of Bohemia; in 1934 the square was renamed Herzog-Albrecht-Platz after Albert, Duke of Prussia. In 1935 a military hospital was opened near Max-Aschmann-Park for Königsberg's garrison. The quarter Tragheimer Palve developed just west of Maraunenhof.

The football club VfB Königsberg played its home games at the Sportplatz des Vereins für Bewegungs Spiele near the Stadtgärtnerei, aside from 1940-41 when they played at the Sportplatz am Friedländer Tor between Haberberg and Rosenau. The women's athletic club Königsberger Damen Sportverein also played along Aschmannallee in Maraunenhof.

While most of Königsberg was heavily damaged by the 1944 Bombing of Königsberg and the 1945 Battle of Königsberg, Maraunenhof was relatively unscathed by World War II.

The siege of Naarden was an investment of the city of Naarden from November 1813 until May 1814 by a Dutch and Russian army as part of the liberation of the Netherlands during the War of the Sixth Coalition. This siege took months, since the French commander didn't believe that Napoleon was captured. Finally, the French soldiers were given a retreat with honour.

Prelude 
In October 1813, Napoleon was defeated at the Battle of Leipzig. As a result, the Sixth Coalition decided to liberate the Netherlands which had been occupied for almost 20 years. Their king, Willem I, was in exile in England and returned to Holland in November 1813. He received military assistance from Prussian and Russian armies.

The battle 
Russian cossacks were the first soldiers that approached Naarden. French soldiers retreated into the fortress, awaiting the (hoped for) return of Napoleon. This scenario happened in multiple cities in Holland, like Den Helder, Delfzijl and Gorinchem. However, the French forces in Naarden didn't surrender and were highly capable of keeping their strength. They even had some Dutch soldiers fighting on their side, which were enlisted in the Grande Armée. During the siege, most of the city was destroyed by bombardments. However, there were almost no casualties since the French and civilians were capable of hiding within the fortress walls.

When the allied forces received the message that Napoleon was captured, the French forces didn't believe them and held on. Finally, after many attempts, a special message from the French government was able to convince them after all. In May 1814, the French soldiers were given a retreat with honour.

Aftermath 
Although the siege of Naarden was strategically not highly relevant, the victory was of significant importance to Willem I. He needed to prove that the Sovereign Principality of the United Netherlands was capable of surviving on its own since the superpowers where redrawing European borders. At the end, the Kingdom of the Netherlands was allowed to exist (an alternative was to add it to the English Empire or the Prussian territories) and needed to function as a bufferstate.

In the short term however, Napoleon escaped from his imprisonment on Elba and returned to France. This resulted in the battle of Waterloo in June 1815.
