MV Conister (II)  No. 187114 was a cargo vessel operated by the Isle of Man Steam Packet Company, the second vessel in the Company's history to bear the name.

Construction and dimensions
Conister was a steel; single-screw vessel built by George Brown & Co., at Greenock in 1955.

Length 208'; beam 38'; depth 15'. Conister had a registered tonnage of  and was powered by a 7-cylinder T.D.36 Sulzer engine which developed 1,260 indicated horsepower. This gave Conister a service speed of 11 knots.

Service life
The ship entered service with Zillah Shipping & Trading Co Ltd, Liverpool, in 1955 and was named Brentfield.

Brentfield was subsequently sold in 1958 to Coast Lines Ltd, Liverpool, and then in 1965 to Burns & Laird Lines Ltd, Glasgow. Sold back to Coast Lines Ltd in 1968, her services were retained until she was again sold, this time to the Belfast Steamship Company in 1972, and renamed the Spaniel.

In the early 1970s containerization resulted in a marked upsurge in freight business to and from the Isle of Man. In 1973 alone, there was a 31 per cent rise in cargo. It was first expected that , operating alongside  would be able to meet this demand and the company sold their other general cargo vessel,  at the beginning of 1973. However, the majority of cargo shipping soon switched to containers, and given Ramseys deficiencies in handling containerized cargoes, it became apparent that a second container vessel would be needed to expedite matters. The Spaniel was chartered as a container ship by the Steam Packet Company early in 1973, and bought outright by them in November of that year.

The consideration was £96,711 (equivalent to £ in ); and upon her purchase she was renamed Conister.

Disposal
By the early 1980s it was apparent to the Steam Packet that in order to compete with their then rival Manxline, the introduction of a RO-RO cargo service was necessary. Both Conister and  (III) were put up for sale, and a new cargo vessel NF Jaguar was chartered - this vessel went on to be purchased, and renamed  (IV).

Conister was sold to Asturamerican Shipping Co Inc, Panama, and arrived in Spain on 29 September 1981 for scrapping. She was broken up at San Juan De Nieva, Spain by Desguaces Y Salvamentos S.A.

Roland Wilson (born 1956 in Leeds, West Yorkshire, England) is a British cornett player, and conductor based in Germany.

Roland Wilson originally studied trumpet at the Royal College of Music, London, then specializing in the baroque cornett. After moving to Germany, he worked as a soloist for other ensembles, for example alongside fellow cornettist Bruce Dickey, in the March 1985 recording of the Heinrich Schütz Opus Ultimum with the Hilliard Ensemble and Knabenchor Hannover for EMI.

In 1976 he founded Musica Fiata, an ensemble specialising in baroque wind music. Musica Fiata's first major recordings were supporting Kammerchor Stuttgart conducted by Frieder Bernius in Heinrich Schütz Symphoniae Sacrae III, Christmas and Resurrection oratorios and Psalmen Davids, and Monteverdi's Vespro della Beata Vergine from 1989-1991. The Wilson expanded Musica Fiata to include La Capella Ducale, a choir. Musica Fiata has recorded for DHM, Sony Vivarte, Glissando and CPO.

Wilson is not the only cornettist to have founded his own ensemble; Jean Tubéry directs La Fenice, Arno Paduch directs the Johann Rosenmüller Ensemble, Bruce Dickey and trombonist Charles Toet direct Concerto Palatino. 
 
Wilson regularly speaks at symposia and writes on early wind instrument construction, performance practice, and historical pitch.

Berkeley Berry Birch plc (BBB) is a company, formerly listed on the London Stock Exchange, which collapsed in 2006 and which is now in Administration.

Reverse takeover
The firm was originally called Berry Birch & Noble, an old insurance broking firm that had got into trading difficulties, but changed name to Berkeley Berry Birch plc following a reverse takeover in 2002 by Clifford Lockyer's Berkeley Group, a privately held firm of independent financial advisers (IFAs) in Coventry. Lockyer wished to float his firm on the stock market and the reverse takeover of the ailing Berry Birch & Noble enabled him to do so more easily and cheaply than through a traditional flotation.

Subsidiaries
The firm had a number of subsidiaries, including:
Berkeley Independent Advisers Ltd.
Berkeley Berry Birch Group Support Services Limited
Berry Birch & Noble Financial Planning Limited
Berry Birch & Noble Financial Planning (Weston) Limited
Berry Birch & Noble Insurance Brokers Ltd.
Berry Birch & Noble Trustees Ltd.
MacRobins plc

Trading problems
Problems emerged soon after the float, however, including poor trading and a Financial Services Authority investigation into business practices at the IFA subsidiary Berkeley Independent Advisers, problems within former Berry Birch & Noble firms and a general lack of capital which caused FSA regulations to be breached.

Plans to expand the group through acquisitions funded by the issue of additional shares faltered as the share price fell. Attempts to recapitalise the company through restructuring and injections of capital from shareholders and insurance company investors failed.

Administration
By 2005 the company's shares were suspended and the firm went into Administration in 2006.

ANNINE-6plus is a water soluble voltage sensitive dye (also called potentiometric dyes). This compound was developed at the Max Planck Institute for Biochemistry in Germany. It is used to optically measure the changes in transmembrane voltage of excitable cells, including neurons, skeletal and cardiac myocytes.

Voltage sensitivity 
ANNINE-6plus has a fractional fluorescent intensity change (ΔF/F per 100 mV change) of about 30% with single-photon excitation (~488 nm) and >50% with two-photon excitation (~1060 nm).

Applications 
ANNINE-6plus has been applied in the microscopic imaging of action potentials of cardiomyocyte in perfused mice heart. Using confocal microscopy in conjunction with ANNINE-6plus, single sweep action potentials with high peak signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) have been recorded from single transverse tubule (t-tubule) of a few micrometers in the ventricular cardiomyocyte.

Palmyra is an unincorporated community in Montgomery County, Tennessee. It is located along State Route 149, southwest of Clarksville. The town had its own post office until around 2010 when the post office was closed and mail service began to be handled out of nearby Clarksville. The zip code for Palmyra is 37142.

Palmyra was laid out by Morgan Brown and established by the legislature in 1796. Brown had the town designated as a port of entry in 1797, and it was the only port of entry in the west until Cincinnati two years later.

Palmyra has a rich Civil War history with Major General Joseph Wheeler of the Confederate army took position on the Cumberland River in late January 1863. His plan was to disrupt Union ships going to Fort Donelson at Dover, a few miles west of Palmyra. Aware of Wheeler's intentions, the Union did not send any ships up or down the river, forcing Wheeler to attack Fort Donelson with his cavalry division. Wheeler was unable to take Fort Donelson and had to retreat after sustaining heavy losses.

The community is part of the Clarksville, TN–KY Metropolitan Statistical Area.

The Mecar M72 is a fragmentation hand grenade used by the Belgian military.
It was designed by Belgian company PRB, with Mecar taking over production after PRB closed.  Made by PRB it was known both as the PRB 423 and the M72.

The M72 grenade has an egg shaped body fitted with an internal notched steel wire fragmentation coil.  The grenade weighs  in total, with an explosive load of  Composition B. Its fuze delays detonation 4 seconds after the spoon is released. The inner tube explosion causes the main explosive load to detonate, which produces 900 shards of fragmentation, each weighing around . The top of the body around the fuse thread was filled with 33 0.1 g metal ball bearings and a further 22 are placed inside the bottom closing plug. 

The grenade has a lethal radius of , an injury radius of , but beyond  radius the risk of injury is minimal. An untrained soldier could normally throw the grenade , making it safe to use as on offensive grenade, as well as a defensive grenade.

A re-usable practice grenade was made with a solid Aluminium body.  Known as the M73, the grenade body vented gases from a 13mm hole running from the fuse carrier thread to the bottom of the grenade. This grenade uses a four second delay fuse identical in all respects to the M72 fuse except the detonator has been replaced by a deflagrator, which produces noise and smoke.  A very similar drill practice grenade was made than had a 9 mm through hole.  This would only mount the M73A1 Practice fuze (with no charge for drill purposes) The deflagrator fuse is too large to fit the drill grenade, but either drill fuse or deflagrator fuse will fit the practice grenade.

PRB made a similar Offensive grenade known as the PRB 446.  It did not have the fragmentation coil or ball bearings but carried a greater explosive load ( grams of cast TNT). It was externally the same as the PRB 423 apart from the brown body colour and the different identification marks printed on the grenade.
