David Kenneth Fasken (23 March 1932 – 24 May 2006) was an English first-class cricketer and businessman. Fasken played first-class cricket for several teams between 1953–1962, though he played predominantly for Oxford University. After graduating from the University of Oxford, he became a director for the Earls Court and Olympia exhibition centres, helping them become world leading exhibition venues.

Life, cricket and business career
Fasken was born into a military family at Batu Gajah in British Malaya in March 1932. His family moved back to England in 1937, where he attended the Dragon School at Oxford, before attending Wellington College. From Wellington he went up to Trinity College, Oxford, where he studied languages. He had debuted for Oxfordshire in minor counties cricket in the 1950 Minor Counties Championship. While studying at Oxford he made his debut in first-class cricket for Oxford University against Lancashire at Oxford in 1953. He played first-class cricket for Oxford until 1955, making 27 appearances and gaining a blue. Playing as a right-arm medium-fast bowler, he took 58 wickets for the university at an average of 35.94, with best figures of 5 for 108 against the touring Australians in 1953. With the bat he scored 403 runs with a high score of 61. In addition to playing first-class cricket for Oxford University, Fasken also played three matches apiece for the Marylebone Cricket Club from 1956–59, and for the Free Foresters from 1959–62. He also played at first-class level for D. R. Jardine's XI and L. C. Stevens' XI. He played his final minor counties match for Oxfordshire in 1955.

After graduating from Oxford, Fasken decided not to take up a career as a cricketer, stating that "the life" never appealed to him. Instead he took up a career managing exhibition centres, including Earls Court and Olympia, both of which he was vice-president until his retirement in 1993. During his tenure he helped Olympia to become one of the world's leading exhibition venues. He was also a major factor in the development of Earls Court Two in the late 1980s. When he was 69 he was diagnosed with hydrocephalus, which required several shunts to slow the progression of the condition. He spent four months in hospital with a kidney infection shortly before his death. He returned home for a month, but died on 24 May 2006, following a fall down the stairs at his home. He was survived by his wife Susan of 38 years and their two children Joanna and Hugh and three grandchildren.

The Gorkha Bridge is a  cantilever footbridge connecting Sirdibas and Kerauja, Gorkha in Nepal. It was constructed with the help of the Department for International Development, engineers from Switzerland, and 400 local workers. The bridge cost approximately NPR 38 million, and was constructed by attaching the trusses to the side of a cliff.

History 
The April 2015 Nepal earthquake triggered a landslide which shifted the course of the Budhi Gandaki River eastwards. This shift destroyed previously used paths in Sirdibas and Kerauja. Seven villages in the northern portion of the Gorkha district were cut off from the district headquarters. These paths were critical for accessing the Aarughat, where food and other supplies were purchased. With the valley paths gone, the alternative trails went over steep and rocky hills, adding two hours to the journey which increased the price of goods. Before the earthquake, the Manaslu Circuit trail had about 5,000 people traversing it annually. The restored trail follows an ancient salt-trading route along the steep-sided river.

With the help of the Department for International Development, the bridge was constructed by 400 local residents led by a company from Switzerland. The local workers were taught mountaineering skills to be able to work on the cliff face. The bridge was built by drilling into the cliff to provide locations to attach steel trusses and a platform. The whole project cost around NPR 38 million (~ $320,000). Materials were delivered to the valley by helicopter. The cantilever bridge has been called the "first of its kind in Nepal" by the District Development Committee. The bridge is used by schoolchildren, mules, and trekkers. Upon completion of the bridge, the team started work on building another cantilever bridge in the Tsum Valley. The average lifespan of such bridges is around 50 years. The construction of the Gorkha Bridge was finished in June 2016, and DFID handed over the bridge to the local government on 17 January 2018.

The 1957 Alberta liquor plebiscite was a province-wide plebiscite conducted in Alberta, Canada The plebiscite asked voters if they were in favour of adding extra ALCB outlets in their district. It was held on October 30, 1957. At the time, the Alberta Liquor Control Board operated only a few stores from which liquor could be legally purchased.  

A vote among egg producers was also held on the question of an egg marketing board.

An additional vote was held regarding mixed drinking in the major cities, also on October 30, 1957.

The 1957 votes were not held in conjunction with an Alberta election.

Background
The province of Alberta decided to hold a plebiscite after divisive debate in the legislature on the need to deal with demands to loosen regulatory restrictions to liquor that had been in place since the Prohibition era.

The vote to hold a plebiscite had carried on a recorded division by a single vote after much debate.

Egg marketing board
In addition to the liquor controversy growing in the province, there was another testing of citizens' sentiment on an issue. The government decided to hold a plebiscite among egg producers on whether or not to establish a compulsory egg marketing board. That plebiscite was originally to be held in June 1957, but Leonard Halmrast, the Minister of Agriculture, decided to hold it in conjunction with the liquor plebiscite so that the sentiment of egg producers could be tested at the same time as voters for the liquor plebiscite, to save costs. That decision later led to controversy when numerous producers were missed after the plan was defeated in a close vote.
A second vote among egg producers in summer 1958 brought in a 'Yes" result.

Question B. Mixed Drinking
In Calgary, and Edmonton, as well as the parts of Gleichen, Banff-Cochrane and Clover Bar that were within the Calgary and Edmonton city limits, a second question was put on the ballot asking if "mixed drinking" should be permitted in beer parlours. Men and women had not been allowed to drink together in Albertan bars since 1928, four years after Prohibition had been repealed.

Results and impact
The province-wide question on new liquor store locations saw mixed results across the province: the more conservative rural areas voted overwhelmingly against, and urban areas voted overwhelmingly for. After the votes were counted, the "for" side won the plebiscite by a wide margin. The opening of additional ALCB outlets was still limited by "local option" votes in the affected districts.

The second question regarding mixed drinking in the major cities passed with an almost 4 to 1 margin. The Alberta government abolished gender-based segregation of bars in the rest of the province (without an additional plebiscite) in 1967.

This province-wide plebiscite cost the province $355,309.62 to run.

Lado is a small settlement in Central Equatoria in South Sudan, on the west bank of the White Nile. It is situated north of the modern-day city of Juba.

When General Gordon was appointed governor of the Egyptian territory of Equatoria in 1874, he moved his capital from Gondokoro to Lado, which had a healthier climate.
In 1878 Emin Pasha was appointed Bey of Equatoria, then nominally under Egyptian control, with his base at Lado.
At one point the settlement was capital of the Lado Enclave. Travelling through Africa, Russian explorer Wilhelm Junker stayed in Lado in 1884, and wrote complimentarily of its brick buildings and neat streets.

Henry Magee Horricks (4 May 1883 – 17 November 1968) was a Canadian minister, pacifist, and anti-racism activist. In the 1935 Canadian federal election, Horricks also ran as the Co-operative Commonwealth Federation candidate in Calgary West.

In 1924 Reverend Horricks founded the Alberta School of Religion, which "provided the core support for an interwar peace movement before the organization of a Canadian branch of the Fellowship of Reconciliation on a national basis". Initially affiliated with the United Church of Canada, in 1935 it affiliated with the Fellowship for a Christian Social Order led by Kirby Page and Sherwood Eddy, and during World War II it affiliated with the Fellowship of Reconciliation.

Henry Horricks attracted an impressive roster of lecturers to the school, including Bishop Paul Jones, H. Richard Niebuhr, A.J. Muste, Harry F. Ward, Sherwood Eddy, Elmore Philpott, Paul Arthur Schilpp, Scott Nearing, Jerome Davis, and many others.  Controversially, one of the summer sessions was attended by J.S. Woodsworth.

"Under Horricks' leadership the Alberta School sought to assist in breaking down the barriers of nationalism and race prejudice separating peoples of different countries. Among the subjects explored at the school were the armaments race and its probable outcome, the viewpoints of labor, farmers, and the dispossessed classes, and the relationship between the social system and human values." Those who joined the "Horricks Fellowship" took a pacifist pledge declaring:

Rushes Postproduction was a post-production and visual effects company based in London. Rushes closed down in December 2017. 

It had a worldwide reputation for producing commercial and pop-promo projects.  The company was formed in 1977 and its staff spawned many successful spin-offs, including The Foundry, Main Frame, Nice Biscuits and Smoke & Mirrors.  Rushes was bought by Richard Branson in 1987 and sold to Liberty Livewire (rebranded Ascent Media Group) by the Virgin Group in 2000.

The company famously posted Dire Straits' "Money for Nothing"; the first video ever to be played on MTV Europe and the launch advert for the Ford Puma featuring a composited late Steve McQueen.

The company was the first in the UK to acquire a Rank-Cintel URSA (replaced with a Thomson Spirit) and a C-Reality Telecine as well as being the first to adopt a Discreet (now an Autodesk subsidiary) Flame SGI based compositing suite.

In 2006, Rushes became a fully HD capable facility from Telecine through visual effects and 3D. One of the first HD projects was the rebranding of ITV 3 in January 2006.

Rushes posted pop-promos for many well known bands including Arctic Monkeys, Dido, Faithless, Gorillaz, Ian Brown, Manic Street Preachers, New Order, Scissor Sisters, The Streets, Oasis, Placebo, Red Hot Chili Peppers, and Snow Patrol.

In 2009, Rushes was nominated for a Primetime Emmy Award for its visual effects work on Discovery's series, Human Body: Pushing the Limits.

The company was acquired by the Deluxe Entertainment Services Group in January 2011.

Deluxe Entertainment Services then subsequently decided to close down the 40-year-old Post House in December 2017.

In 1905, Osborne came to Calgary and founded Osborne's Book Store, a retail outlet that sold books, stationery, and school supplies. Osborne's Book Store remained in its original location, 112 8 Avenue SW, until it was destroyed by fire in 1966.

Osborne was actively involved in Calgary politics. He was a city alderman twice, and was elected the 1926 Calgary municipal election the twenty-third mayor of Calgary and served from 1927 to 1929. As Alderman he was dissatisfied with the way sinking fund loans were handled by the city, and headed a special sinking fund committee which recommended the appointment of a board of sinking fund trustees to supervise financing. Osborne would sit on the sinking fund board until his death.

He was president and district governor of the Calgary Rotary Club from 1921 to 1922, president of the Calgary Board of Trade in 1925, and a member of the board of governors of the University of Alberta from 1923 to 1942. Osborne was a Mason and a Shriner, and a member of the Ranchman's Club, the Calgary Golf and Country Club, and the Glencoe Club.

Frederick Ernest Osborne died in Calgary on October 22, 1948.

Osborne was awarded the prestigious Commander of the Order of the British Empire in 1948 for his leadership role on the Provincial War Finance Committee from 1942 to 1945, a few months before his death. It was noted that the Alberta committee's quota for Victory Loans under Osborne's leadership was consistently oversubscribed.
