This ship was originally a fishing trawler launched on 24 March 1936.  She was requisitioned by the Royal Navy upon the outbreak of the Second World War in 1939 and designated HMT Lord Middleton with the pennant number (FY219).  

She survived the war and was returned to her owner in July 1945.  She was scrapped in 1964.  Her sister-ship, HMT Lord Austin, was lost on 24 June 1944.

The ship features in a song written by Alan Bell of The Taverners Folk Group: "So spare to her a kindly glance if e'er you're passing by, for over there in the old scrapyard the Lord Middleton must die".

Service in the Second World War
In April 1942, Lord Middelton rescued crew from the torpedoed merchantman Empire Howard.  In May of the same year, she also rescued some of the crew of the Soviet ship Tsiolkovskij after that vessel was eventually sunk by attacks from a German U-boat and two destroyers.  

On 20 September 1942, Lord Middleton was part of Convoy PQ 18 which was attacked by . During the battle,  was hit and sustained major damage. Lord Middleton evacuated 80 of her 190-strong crew, leaving some of them to try to save the ship.  When the ship eventually broke in two and sank five days later, Lord Middleton and  pulled 35 more of her crew from the sea.  

On 17 February 1943, as part of the Arctic convoy JW 53 to the Soviet port of Murmansk, HMT Lord Middleton suffered flooding in her forward storeroom in the bad weather and was lagging behind the convoy.  She was forced to retreat to Scapa Flow escorted by the corvette HMS Dianella.

Ankhnesneferibre was an ancient Egyptian princess and priestess during the 26th Dynasty, daughter of pharaoh Psamtik II and his queen Takhuit. She held the positions of Divine Adoratrice of Amun and later God's Wife of Amun between 595 and 525 BC, during the reigns of Psamtik II, Apries, Amasis II and Psamtik III, until the Achaemenid conquest of Egypt.

Biography
In 595 BC, Ankhnesneferibre was dispatched to Thebes to be adopted by the God's Wife of Amun Nitocris I, as a stela from Karnak records. Ankhnesneferibre held the position of Divine Adoratrice until Nitocris' death in pharaoh Apries' regnal Year 4 (586 BC), after which she became the new God's Wife. She governed at Thebes for several decades until 525 BC, when the Persian emperor Cambyses II defeated Psamtik III and conquered Egypt, putting an end to the 26th Dynasty and the positions of Divine Adoratrice of Amun and God's Wife of Amun. After this date, Ankhnesneferibre disappeared from history as the last God's Wife, as did her likely successor, the Divine Adoratrice Nitocris II. As with many of her predecessors, Ankhnesneferibre's tomb is located within the temple of Medinet Habu.

For Ankhnesneferibre several attestations are known, above all a statue depicting her now exhibited at the Nubian Museum of Aswan (CG 42205), and her black basalt sarcophagus, which was subsequently reused in Deir el-Medina during the Ptolemaic period by a man named Pymentu, and which is today located in the British Museum.

Colonel Henry I. Kowalsky (August 16, 1859 - November 28, 1914) was a San Francisco defense attorney. He was employed by King Leopold II of Belgium as a lobbyist to the US government in favor of the Congo Free State. Kowalsky was known as "Colonel" without having ever been in the military. He earned the designation when he was appointed to, and served as, the Judge Advocate General for California Governor Robert Waterman.

Biography
The fourth son of Levi and Fannie Kowalsky, Henry was born in Buffalo, New York on August 16, 1859. His family moved to San Francisco, California in 1866 to join his father who had been living in different areas around the state. Kowalsky attended Lincoln Grammar School in San Francisco until his graduation in 1874. His early attempt at business was short lived, selling his paper delivery route after only a few days of operation while still in school.

Kowalsky became the editor of a monthly magazine, originally called Our Boys Monthly Magazine, called Field and Fireside. Kowalsky's magazine became a success and he was praised for his leadership of the publication. It was discontinued, and he moved to Tomales, a small town in Marin County, California, and began working as a store clerk for his brother, Edward H. Kowalsky in 1872. Leaving the store in 1877, he and his brother became members of the United States Election Map Co., along with Henry C. Donnell and Charles S. Israel.

King Leopold II controversy
Kowalsky sought out the friendship of the Belgian heir apparent, Prince Albert, during one of the Prince's trips to the United States. Through this friendship, Kowalsky was introduced to King Leopold II in December 1904.

King Leopold II was working to thwart negative press he was receiving in the United States, in regards to atrocities being committed in his personally owned Congo Free State. He needed someone with connections to the people who would shape the policy of the United States. The King hired Kowalsky with an annual retainer of 100,000 francs (over $2 million US in 2013 dollars). It seems however, that this new position raised the ire of Congo state officials already working in the US. After several months, Kowalsky gave them the ammunition they needed in order to work to remove him: getting into a fist fight with a creditor in open court. A year after signing it, the King let Kowalsky's hefty contract expire, embarrassing Kowalsky. He beseeched the King to reinstate it. As Kowalsky was becoming a burden, and an embarrassment to the Congo state, the King paid him off, reinstating the contract and adding 125,000 francs to go away quietly.

The payoff backfired, and for a week after December 10, 1906, newspapers across the country detailed the correspondence between Kowalsky, King Leopold II, and the Congo state. This was a dreadful turn of events for the King, leading directly to joint efforts between the United States and Great Britain to end his one-man rule in the Congo.

The term loss of soul - In shamanism the term refers to the loss of human part of the life force, soul.

Causes of soul loss in shamanism 
The prevailing concept in traditional shamanism is "any illness is a consequence of a lost or stolen soul. The Khanty and Mansi had the idea that a person had five souls.

The main explanation of the mechanism of soul loss is that in order to preserve oneself in an intolerable situation, part of the soul leaves, as continuing to be in these conditions is so uncomfortable that it can lead to complete disintegration. 

In some cultures saying God bless you after sneezing is believed to help prevent soul loss

In Bali Motorcycle accidents are believed to cause soul loss, resulting in a revival of the belief

Symptoms of Soul Loss in Shamanism 
Sandra Ingerman, in her book Return of the Soul, identifies the following symptoms of soul loss:

 Dissociation
 Chronic illnesses
 Depression
 Multiple personality syndrome
 Chemical dependency
 Post-traumatic stress disorder
 Difficulty making decisions
 Feeling numb
 Apathy
 Chronic bad luck
 Memory lapses

Soul Retrieval by a Shaman 
Some people believe that the soul can be returned with the help of shaman, that he goes to his helper spirits and/or teachers with a request to help in the return of the soul, negotiates with the part of the soul found, asks about the reasons for its departure, finds out the conditions under which the soul will be willing to return, with the claim that the shaman shifts the vast majority of the work of returning the soul to other entities.
In preparation for the return of the soul, the shaman may preliminarily produce the return of an animal power.

Sialidase-3 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the NEU3 gene.

Function 

This gene product belongs to a family of glycohydrolytic enzymes which remove sialic acid residues from glycoproteins and glycolipids. It is localized in the plasma membrane, and its activity is specific for gangliosides. It may play a role in modulating the ganglioside content of the lipid bilayer.

Interactions 
Sialidase-3 has been shown to interact with Grb2.

The Hausberg is a mountain with an elevation of 486 m next to Butzbach in Hesse, Germany. It is part of the Taunus mountain range and located at its easternmost part bordering the fertile landscape of the Wetterau, which is of a much lower altitude. Therefore, the mountain is well situated for look-out and in 1873 a first look-out tower was erected on its top. In 1875 a storm damaged the tower severely, but it was repaired in the following year and remained in use until 1941 when it was demolished due to being in disrepair. More than 60 years later in June 2007 the construction of a new tower started and was completed in May 2008. The new tower has a total height of 23 m and a roofed observation deck at 19 m.

The Hausberg and its neighbouring Brülerberg were the site of an ancient Celtic ringfort from the La Tène period. The excavation and research of its remains started in 1911. In the neighbourhood, there are also remains from the Roman period. The Limes Germanicus traverses through the foothills of the Hausberg and one of its smaller forts the Hunnenkirchhof is located close to the mountain.

A Feast in the Time of Plague is a 2020 opera by Alex Woolf to a libretto by David Pountney, loosely based on the "little tragedy" of the same name by Alexander Pushkin.

Background
The opera was commissioned by Grange Park Opera during the COVID-19 pandemic. Pountney described how he came to write the libretto whilst in lockdown in WalesI responded to Pushkin’s little fragment by creating 12 – because of the Last Supper – very varied characters who arrive voluntarily and most of whom depart involuntarily – i.e. they die. In between they capture the defiance and solidarity that we have all experienced during these strange times. The virus exposes truths about all of us in surprising ways. A Feast in the Time of Plague captures this – as well as the essential lesson that we must carry on laughing.

The 25-year old Woolf wrote the music in six weeks. The premiere performance took place at Grange Park Opera on 12 September 2020, accompanied by the composer playing piano in the wings.

Roles

Synopsis
The opera is in two sections, Arrivals and Departures. "Twelve archetypes – from cook to policeman to dewy newlyweds – gather for a last supper, each offering their own thoughts on risk, life and death."

Reception
The critic of The Guardian commented that it could benefit from longer-term reconsideration and rewriting, but in the meantime "enjoy it as it is: a coup, achieved in an instant with flair, hard work and brilliant team spirit." Rupert Christiansen, writing in the Daily Telegraph, gave the opera four stars (out of five), describing it as  "intriguing [and] fabulously performed." The reviewer for The Stage noted that "[e]veryone gets his or her turn, and if some of the individual numbers go on too long – the parody pastiches would make greater impact if shorter – there’s certainly a huge amount of talent on stage."

Eugène Devic (October 24, 1858 – 1930) was a French neurologist who was a native of Lyon.

He studied medicine in Lyon under internist Léon Bouveret (1850-1929). Later he was associated with the "Hôpital de la Croix-Rousse" and the "Hôtel-Dieu de Lyon".

Devic performed research of numerous neurological disorders, including infantile chorea, cerebral glioma and tumors of the corpus callosum. He was also involved with studies of typhoid fever and mental aspects associated with the disease.

In 1894 Devic and his student Fernand Gault described a rare nervous condition that affected the spinal cord and optic nerves that resembled multiple sclerosis. Today this disorder is referred to as Devic's disease or neuromyelitis optica (NMO).

, born , was a Japanese enka singer and rōkyoku performer. His song "Tokyo Gorin Ondo" was the theme song of the 1964 Summer Olympics.

Early life
He was born Bunji Kitazume in Nagaoka, Niigata, Japan.

Career
In 1939, at the age of 16, Bunji debuted as a performer of rōkyoku, a type of narrative singing, under the name .

Bunji joined the Imperial Japanese Army in 1944 and was sent to Manchuria. He was captured by the Red Army and spent four years at a prisoner of war camp near Khabarovsk. He returned to Japan in 1949 and resumed his career as a rōkyoku singer.

He adopted his stage name Haruo Minami in 1957 and started performing popular music (only later would his music be classified as enka, a term not in existence at the time of his debut). He attracted attention for performing while dressed in kimono, which was unheard of for male pop singers at the time. Hideo Murata was regarded as his rival as they both came from rōkyoku backgrounds. Among his many hit songs was "Tokyo Gorin Ondo", the theme song of the 1964 Summer Olympics in Tokyo. It sold over one and a half million copies, and was awarded a gold disc.

In 1992, Minami enjoyed a popularity resurgence when he performed the ending music for the Fuji Television series Super Zugan. Previously popular primarily among adults, enka music gained many younger fans due to this song.

Death
On April 14, 2001, Minami died of prostate cancer at a hospital in Tokyo, at the age of 77.

Approach to audience
Haruo Minami is known for popularizing the saying "Okyakusama wa kamisama desu". It is directly translated, "The guests are kami", meaning "the customer is always right" or "the customer is a god" symbolising patronage. When he sang his songs, he was concentrating as if to pray before kami. He looked on his audience as kami to make his performance perfect. His words were spread by Let's-Go-Sanbiki, a trio of Japanese comedian that had come to watch Minami's show.

In October 2016 his voice was released for software synthesizer CeVIO Creative Studio.
