Kleiwegkwartier is a neighbourhood quarter in Rotterdam, Netherlands. It is in the southern part of Hillegersberg with origins dating from the early 1600s.

Background 

The Kleiwegkwartier is located just north of the A20 autoroute and is part of Rotterdam's Hillegersberg-Schiebroek district.  The district originally belonged to the municipalities of Hillegersberg and Schiebroek until they were annexed by Rotterdam in 1941. The area now makes part of Rotterdam's Hillegersberg-Zuid district.

The area owes its name to the Kleiweg, the main road that runs centrally through its neighbourhood. The Kleiweg originally served as the main connection between Rotterdam and Overschie where it crossed old creek bridges over the Rivers Schie and Rotte. The road's early existence is documented on an area map dated 1611.

Over time the road became increasingly lined by farms, houses and businesses—especially with major residential development occurring in the Kleiwegkwartier during the 1930s.  The area's railway station (1908) and Bergse Achterplas (lake) had been established by that time.

Character 

The Kleiwegkwartier a mixed-use neighbourhood which lies close to the centre of Rotterdam. It "mostly escaped wartime bombing, leaving its residential streets intact."  Many of its streets are now tree lined.

The houses north of the Kleiweg, also close to the , tend to be larger and more luxurious than the houses on its southern side. Light industry, warehouses and tram depots are located in the southern part of the neighbourhood.  Its most western section, near the Overschiese Kleiweg, still retains characteristics of the area's rural origins.

The Sint Franciscus Gasthuis (hospital) is located on the south-western edge of Kleiwegkwartier.

The neighbourhood benefits from good communication links with Rotterdam International airport, two railways stations, a tram and bus line and the A20 Autoroute all lying in close proximity.

The shops on the Kleiweg make part of one of the Hillegersberg area's three shopping centres.

Sisinnius II (; died 24 August 998) became Ecumenical Patriarch of Constantinople in 996 and held the post until his death in 998.

According to the histories of John Skylitzes and Zonaras, he was extremely well educated, particularly in medical matters, and had been honoured with the office of magistros. He was elected to the patriarchate on 12 April 996, after the see had remained vacant for four years, due to the preoccupation of Emperor Basil II with his wars against the Bulgarians.

On 21 February 997, he issued a tomos on prohibiting marriage between persons related to the fifth or sixth degree. These regulations are soon after attested in juridical decisions, but appear to have also caused some opposition (Logos Antirrhetikos of Skribas Nikolaos, ). Two other canons on prohibitions related to marriages are also attributed to him, but are considered as fake by modern scholars. A later note in Skylitzes' account also reports that Sisinnius managed to finally lay to rest the quarrels of the Tetragamy affair of Leo VI the Wise (). In 997/8, he also issued a typikon concerning the provision of the Metropolitan of Alania in the patriarchal monastery of Epiphanios in Kerasus. Sisinnius was also the recipient of three letters from Leo of Synada.

He died on 24 August 998. His successor was Sergius II of Constantinople, who was elected in 1001.

Linton railway station was a flag station at Linton in Palmerston North on the North Island Main Trunk in New Zealand.

It was opened by the Wellington and Manawatu Railway Company on 7 July 1885; closed to passengers on 21 January 1971 and closed to goods traffic on 19 November 1972. Only a passing loop remains.

History 
By March 1885 the first  of the WMR from Longburn had been built, which included Linton and Tokomaru. It may therefore have opened for goods in July 1885, but there was no regular passenger service for another year. A special train ran from Longburn to Ohau in April 1886. From Monday 2 August 1886 WMR trains started to run between Longburn and Ōtaki. Linton was shown in the time and fare-tables, but only as a flag station. The first through train from Wellington to Palmerston North ran on 30 November 1886.

Linton was intended to be a township and raise capital for building the railway. Only a small fraction of the planned development was implemented, though the original concept can still be seen in a modern map of land holdings at Linton. The result was that the station was on the edge of a very small settlement. Another attempt to sell land was made in 1897.

However, a goods shed was built in 1890 and enlarged to  by , with a verandah, in 1910. The station was improved in 1909, so that by 1911 it also had a shelter shed, platform, cart approach, cattle and sheep yards and a passing loop for 46 wagons (extended in 1912 to 68 wagons, so Napier mail trains could cross at Linton, in 1940 to 90 wagons and in 1964 to 114 wagons). In 1912 a tablet office and loading bank were added and a porter employed.

Railway houses were built in 1895, 1903, 1912, 1938 and 1946.

In the early twentieth century McGregor Brothers' horse-powered tramway was built up above the swamp on rough timber. The -long tramway brought timber to the station from a mill in the Tararua Range. Moturimu Mill and tramway were sold in 1911.

On 13 November 1942 a  private siding to serve Linton Camp was opened, to carry troops to and from the camp by special trains. The track came from lifting the Mount Maunganui line and the ballast from Kakariki.

In 1968 old buildings were removed and on 19 November 1972 Linton closed to all but private siding traffic.

His initial success came in 1887 when he received a £30 Taylor prize after sending a painting to the Royal Dublin Society from Étaples. He traveled extensively, including visits to the United States and Canada. Barry was living in Saint-Jean-de-Luz, in southwest France during the German occupation of World War II. He died when a bomb went off near his home on 9 September 1941.

The 1977 Benin coup d'état attempt, Opération Crevette or Operation Shrimp was a failed attempt by a team of French-led mercenaries to overthrow the government of the People's Republic of Benin which was led by Mathieu Kérékou whose communist party, the People's Revolutionary Party of Benin (PRPB), was the only allowed political party in the country. The coup took place on 17 January 1977 and included a failed invasion of the port city of Cotonou by mercenaries contracted by a group of exiled Beninese political rivals.

Bob Denard was the leader of the mercenary group and although Jacques Foccart denied knowledge of the attempted coup after its failure, he did recognize that it had been backed-up by Gnassingbé Eyadéma (Togo), Félix Houphouët-Boigny (Ivory Coast), Omar Bongo (Gabon) and Hassan II (Morocco), all allies of France.

The coup would be one of several against Kérékou who survived numerous attempts to oust him, including two coup attempts in 1988.

Bradford Cannon (December 2, 1907 – December 20, 2005), the son of Dr. Walter Bradford Cannon, was a pioneer in the field of reconstructive surgery, specialising in burn victims. He was the first chief of plastic and reconstructive surgery at Massachusetts General Hospital and is credited with saving the lives of thousands of soldiers maimed during World War II. As a young doctor, he used a new method he developed with Oliver Cope to treat survivors of the Cocoanut Grove fire in November, 1942.

From 1943 to 1947, Cannon served in the U.S. Army as chief of the plastic surgical section of Valley Forge General Hospital in Pennsylvania, which cared for casualties from Europe and the Pacific. His daughter, Sarah Cannon Holden, said his group performed more than 15,000 operations.

He also served as president of the Boston Surgical Society, the New England Society of Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery, and the American Association of Plastic Surgeons.

In the 1950s, Cannon also worked as a consultant for the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission and visited the Marshall Islands to study effects of radioactivity on the population from atomic tests.

He graduated from Harvard College and Harvard Medical School.

Family
Cannon and his wife Ellen DeNormandie Cannon (died 2003) lived in Lincoln, Massachusetts.

United Arab Airlines Flight 749 was a scheduled international passenger flight on 18 March 1966 that crashed while attempting to land in Cairo, Egypt. All thirty passengers and crew on board were killed.

Crash
Flight 749 took off from Nicosia Airport bound for Cairo International Airport. En route, the aircraft encountered bad weather, and conditions were poor in Cairo due to the presence of sandstorms. The crew of Flight 749 contacted Mirsair's Operations about diversion options. The flight crew also reported they were flying through thunderstorms with icing conditions, that two of the aircraft's altimeters were giving different readings, the magnetic compass being unserviceable, and that there was a crack in a cockpit window panel due to the thunderstorms. After diverting was discussed, Flight 749 continued to Cairo. The flight was cleared for a Runway 23 approach but crashed approximately 5 kilometres from it. Everyone on board Flight 749 perished in the accident.

After the crash, the sandstorm hampered rescue operations. Visibility was near zero and rescue vehicles became bogged down in the drifting sands.

Investigation
Accident investigators determined that "the accident arose from the descent of the aircraft below the safe flight altitude in the final approach and the impact of the port wing against the sand dunes lying to the northeast of the aerodrome. As a result the pilot lost control of his aircraft and hit the ground.

It is probable that the cause of descent of the aircraft below the safe level was due to the change from IFR to VFR, taking into consideration that considerable time would have been needed for the pilot to have adapted to this change in the prevailing weather conditions."

Mary Rood was an English silversmith.

Little is known about Rood. Her maiden name appears to have been Roode, and she was possibly the widow of largeworker James Rood when she registered two marks, for sterling and new standard, on 2 December 1721. She gave an address in Maiden Lane, and was classified as a largerworker as well.

A pair of saltcellars, made by Rood between 1724 and 1725, are currently owned by the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Another pair of George III trencher salts, dating to 1723, are in the collection of the National Museum of Women in the Arts. A third set of trencher salts, also dated 1724/5, are in the silver holdings of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. Other similar pieces with her mark have also survived, all dating to the 1720s.

William 'Bill' King (September 15, 1930 - December 3, 2020) was a former British Columbia politician from Revelstoke. King was a member of Dave Barrett's 1972 BC NDP provincial government, serving in the post of Minister of Labour.

King was born in Tisdale, Saskatchewan to Irish immigrants Patrick and Minnie King. He married Audrey Lennard on October 10, 1953, with whom he had two children, Linda and William Jr. He attended Nelson High School in Nelson, BC and the Labour College of Canada at the University of Montreal in 1967.

He entered politics as a teenager in 1943, when he acted as a runner between polling stations and the campaign headquarters of Herbert Herridge, CCF MLA for Rossland-Trail. After moving to Revelstoke in 1952, he became an organizer for the CCF at the constituency level and worked on Vincent Segur's campaign in the 1952 provincial election. In 1960 King served as campaign manager for George Hobbs, who won the Revelstoke-Slocan seat for the CCF.

King was first elected to the BC provincial legislature in the Revelstoke-Slocan constituency on July 15, 1968 in a by-election, but was defeated in the 1969 General Election.

He was re-elected in 1972, when the New Democratic Party became the government.  Premier Dave Barrett appointed King Minister of Labour. During his time as Minister of Labour, King introduced BC's first Labour Code and Human Rights legislation, which took jurisdiction over strikes and picketing away from courts which tended to issue many ex parte injunctions against labour unions, and transferred it to a Labour Relations Board with broad powers. King was also the first to appoint women to key civil service positions in BC.

In the general election of 1975, NDP leader Dave Barrett lost his seat in the Legislature. King served as Leader of the Opposition until Barrett returned to the House upon winning a by-election in June 1976.

King was elected as the first MLA for the new riding of Shuswap-Revelstoke in the 1979 general election but was defeated in the 1983 British Columbia general election. He returned to his previous job at the Canadian Pacific Railway in Revelstoke for three years before retiring in 1986.
