Frits Kiggen (born 10 September 1955) is a retired Dutch sidecarcross passenger and the 1981 World Champion in the sport, together with his driver Ton van Heugten.

He has also won the Dutch national sidecarcross championship twice, in 1979 and 1980, and the European amateur sidecarcross championship in 1975. Additionally, he has taken part in the Dakar Rally on a number of occasions.

Biography
Kiggen took out the 1975 IMBA European sidecarcross championship, an amateur competition, on the side of Jan Nouwens.

In 1982, he and Van Heugten took part in the Dakar Rally. He again took part in the competition in 2004, 2005 and 2007 in the truck category, for GINAF.

His racing partner of many years, Ton van Heugten, died on 27 March 2008 of a heart attack, aged 62, in his home town of Amersfoort.

Sidecarcross world championship results
Frits Kiggen made his debut in the European Championship, a predecessor of the World Championship, in 1976, in 1976, on the side of Broer Dirkx.

Kiggen did not return to this competition until 1979, now racing with Ton van Heugten, the two becoming a very successful combination. They won the Dutch championship twice together, in 1979 and 1980.

From 1980 onwards, the European championship was renamed the FIM World Championship and Van Heugten/Kiggen, finishing fourth in its first year, became the second World Champion in 1981, despite Kiggen, breaking his collar bone during the season and having to be replaced with Sies Hurkmans for four races.

Kiggen continued to race with Van Heugten until 1986, achieving four more top-three finishes in the World Championship. Kiggen also raced with other drivers in this time and finished his World Championship career on the side of Jan Bakens in 1988.

Season by season
The competition which was to become the sidecarcross world championship in 1980 originated as the FIM Cup in 1971 and was renamed to European championship in 1975. Kiggen's results in these competitions were:

Mark H. Dunkelman (born October 29, 1947) is a historian, artist, and musician. Dunkelman lives in Providence, Rhode Island.

Painting

Dunkelman was born on October 29, 1947 in Buffalo, New York. As a child, he was inspired by stories from his great-grandfather, Corporal John Langhans, a veteran of the 154th New York Volunteer Infantry. Dunkelman received a BFA in 1969 from the Rhode Island School of Design. In 1976, he was commissioned to paint a historical mural for the town hall in Narragansett, Rhode Island. From 1977 to 1979, he completed a series of 100 American Civil War paintings. Dunkelman designed an 80-foot-long mural at Coster Avenue in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania. He painted the mural, which was installed in 1988, with Rhode Island artist Johan Bjurman.

Civil War research

Dunkelman's American Civil War research focuses on the 154th New York Volunteer Infantry, known as the "Hardtack Regiment". He has contacted over 1,200 descendants of members of the 154th, locating and copying over 1,700 wartime letters, 250 portraits, 25 diaries, dozens of relics, and several other memoirs and accounts. In 2015, a collection of Dunkelman and fellow historian Michael J Winey's research was unveiled at St. Bonaventure University in Allegany, New York.

Since 1986, Dunkelman has organized annual reunions in Cattaraugus and Chautauqua Counties for the descendants of members of the regiment. During the tenth annual reunion, held in 1996, attendees raised funds to erect a monument to their ancestors at Chancellorsville, Virginia.

Other

Dunkelman is also a musician who plays pedal steel guitar and dobro.

Huernia hystrix, the porcupine huernia, is a species of flowering plant in the family Apocynaceae, native to southeastern Africa. A succulent, it has gained the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit.

H. hystrix is extensively sold in Zulu markets throughout South Africa for its supposed medicinal and protective magical properties, and in Eswatini as an alleged aphrodisiac. Extracts from its stem and leaves may contain chemicals with anti-inflammatory properties, It is sold to people suffering from HIV/AIDS. 

It is highly drought-tolerant and grows well in pots, and so is a good species for ornamental xeriscaping. Destructive whole-plant harvesting has led to concerns about its survival. Researchers at University of KwaZulu-Natal Botanical Garden have discovered multiple shoots can be propagated from a single explant by treatment with Murashige and Skoog medium + 1-Naphthaleneacetic acid + 6-Benzylaminopurine with 95% survival rates.

Subtaxa
The following subspecies are accepted:
Huernia hystrix subsp. hystrix – KwaZulu-Natal, Northern Provinces, Swaziland, Mozambique, Zimbabwe
Huernia hystrix subsp. parvula (L.C.Leach) Bruyns – KwaZulu-Natal, Cape Provinces

HMS Mutine was a Condor-class sloop of the Royal Navy.  Mutine was launched on 1 March 1900. While being delivered from Birkenhead to Portsmouth an accident in Mutine's boiler rooms caused some loss of life and gave her a name as an unlucky ship before her career even began.  She served on the China Station, then the Australia Station between December 1903 and February 1905 and later became a survey ship, surviving until 1932 as a Royal Naval Volunteer Reserve drill ship, the last of her class to be sold.

Design
Mutine was constructed of steel to a design by William White, the Royal Navy Director of Naval Construction. She was powered by a three-cylinder vertical triple expansion steam engine developing  and driving twin screws.

Sail plan
The class was originally designed and built with barque-rigged sails, although some pictures show ships of the class with a barquentine rig.  Condor was lost in a gale during her first commission, and the contemporary gunnery pioneer Admiral Percy Scott ascribes her sinking to the encumbrance of sails, and furthermore believed that her loss finally convinced that Admiralty to abandon sails entirely.  All other ships of the class had their sails removed during the first few years of the twentieth century.

Armament
The class was armed with six 4-inch/25-pounder (1 ton) quick-firing breech loaders and four 3-pounder quick-firing breech loaders.

Service
Mutine was launched at Birkenhead on 1 March 1900, and commissioned later the same year.  She was re-commissioned at Sheerness 28 November 1901 by Commander Claude William Manners Plenderleath, with a complement of 105 officers and men, for service on the China Station. After successful steam trials in the North Sea, she left Sheerness for China in mid December, arriving at Singapore 4 February, and at Hong Kong 27 March 1902. She served in the Far East between December 1903 and February 1905 and was converted to a survey ship in May 1907.  After a year operating off the west coast of Africa, Mutine returned to Devonport for a refit in July 1908.

She was a depot ship in Bermuda from December 1917 and an RNVR drill ship from 1925.

Fate
Mutine was sold to Thos. W. Ward of Briton Ferry on 16 August 1932 and scrapped.

The R35 is a provincial route in Mpumalanga, South Africa that connects Amersfoort with Middelburg via Morgenzon and Bethal. The R35 used to connect with the N3 near Ladysmith, but the portion of the road from Amersfoort onwards is now part of the N11.

Route
The R35 begins in Amersfoort, at a junction with the N11 National Route. It begins by going westwards as Sybrand van Niekerk Street before turning towards the north-west. It crosses the Vaal River 25 kilometres from Amersfoort before bending northwards.

It enters Morgenzon from the south as De Jager Street and reaches a junction with the R39 Road (Steyn Street). It joins the R39 eastwards up to the second junction, where it becomes the road northwards and proceeds to cross the Blesbokspruit and Kwaggalaagte rivers.

Entering Bethal from the south, it reaches a t-junction with the N17 National Route and joins it to be co-signed northwards through the town centre. At the junction with Simon Street, the R38 Route joins the N17/R35 co-signage northwards. At the sixth junction afterwards, the R35 and R38 split from the N17 to become the road eastwards. After one kilometre, the R35 splits from the R38 to become its own road northwards. After eleven kilometres, the R35 meets the south-eastern terminus of the R544 Road from Witbank.

The R35 continues northwards, crossing the Olifants River and Leeuwfontein and then intersected at a t-junction by the R542 at Komati. Continuing northwards, it interchanges with the N4 freeway (Maputo Corridor) just south of Middleburg where it becomes Samora Machel Street. It heads northwards to reach its end at a junction with Cowen Ntuli Street (N11; R555; R104) in the Middelburg CBD.

Anna Barbara Bansi (26 February 1777 – 27 May 1863) was a Swiss-born French painter. She is usually referred to as "Barbara" or "Babette".

Biography
Born in Fläsch, Bansi was the daughter of a reformed minister, Heinrich Bansi; her father had little money, and at the age of six she was adopted by Zürich philanthropist Johann Caspar Schweizer, with whom she came to Paris in 1786. He left for the United States in 1794, while she remained behind at school. She studied painting in Paris, exhibiting for the first time in 1798, at the "Salon de Musée". She moved to Italy in 1802 to complete her education, serving also for a while as the companion to Letizia Ramolino and converting to Roman Catholicism while there. During this time Bansi was the subject of a drawing by Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres that is today in the Louvre; they had met twice, first in the studio of Jacques-Louis David and some years later in Rome. Furthermore, her only known pastel, which may instead be a drawing in black chalk, is of the violinist Pierre Baillot, also drawn by Ingres.

It has been claimed that Bansi had an affair with Joseph-Benoît Suvée, of whom she was a pupil. In 1808 she married Lorenzo Nannoni, a physician; he died in 1812, and two years later she returned to Paris, exhibiting an oil painting of the Virgin at that year's salon. Her name in the catalogue entry was given as Mme Nannoni, née Bansi, with an address at rue du Doyenné, no. 3. Later in her career Bansi was appointed maîtresse de dessin at the schools of Saint-Denis and Sainte-Clotilde. She donated two pastels by Adélaïde Labille-Guiard, portraits of Jean-Jacques Bachelier and the painter Vincent, to the Louvre in 1832. Several works by Bansi, including a 1793 self-portrait, are known, and a fragmentary diary from the same year survives as well.
