Ridgeway, Derbyshire

Ridgeway is a village in Eckington parish, North East Derbyshire in the English county of Derbyshire.

Location
Ridgeway lies just south of the South Yorkshire border, around 5 miles southeast of Sheffield City Centre. The village is surrounded by a number of hamlets and villages with Highlane to the north, Ford, Bramley and Birley Hay to the south, Plumbley and Mosborough to the east, and Troway and Geerlane to the west.

History
Ridgeway is believed to be around 700 years old, and would once have been part of Sherwood Forest. It is still a self-contained village, within North East Derbyshire, and is in the Moss Valley Conservation Area.

Ridgeway originally consisted of three smaller settlements: Sloadlane, Ridgeway and Ridgeway Moor. Also, many people amalgamate the nearby villages of Birley Hay, Ford and Highlane with the above settlements, though they do virtually run into one another today.

Ridgeway was once deeply involved in the local industry of sickle and scythe manufacturing, like its neighbouring villages. At one time, it had a large industrial scale scythe manufactury known as the Commonside Sickle Manufactory. It has now been converted into apartments. Similar manufactories could be found at Birley Hey, a hamlet built entirely as of industry, at Highlane, where Hutton & Co that ran the Phoenix Works resided and at Mosborough. Grindstones, likely brought in from Millstone quarries from what was to be the Peak district or Rotherham, stand testament to this old industry, and many can be found literally built into people's houses.

Facilities
Ridgeway has a primary school (Ridgeway Primary School), a church (St John The Evangelist Church, Ridgeway), a Methodist chapel, four pubs (The Bridge Inn, The Swan, The Queen's Head and The Phoenix Inn), sports facilities (football, tennis, bowls, cricket) and a restaurant (The Old Vicarage) that used to hold a Michelin Star.

Military service
Chapman served in the Royal Fusiliers in 1914–20, particularly in France and Belgium in 1915–18 during the First World War. He was appointed an Officer of the Order of the British Empire (OBE) in the 1919 New Year Honours and awarded the Military Cross (MC) in December 1919:
"For conspicuous gallantry and leadership near Ghissignies, on 4th November, 1918. When the battalion was going through Gihissignies in support of the attack, information was received that the left company of the leading battalion had been held up. Under heavy shell fire he went forward to reconnoitre, and found that the supporting battalion appeared likely to become prematurely involved in the fighting. By his energy and initiative in taking command of the situation this was prevented."

From 1920 to 1940, Chapman was involved in book publishing and then served in the Second World War.

Academic career

Greater Winnipeg Water District Railway

The Greater Winnipeg Water District Railway is a  industrial railway from Winnipeg, Manitoba, to Waugh on Shoal Lake near Manitoba's eastern boundary. The railway was built between 1914 and 1916 to assist in the construction and maintenance of the aqueduct supplying fresh water to Winnipeg. It is owned by Winnipeg's municipal government.

History 

The railway is located  south of the aqueduct linking Winnipeg to Shoal Lake.  After the aqueduct was completed in 1919, the railway did not shut down.  Instead, the railway started hauling timber for firewood and paper mills as well as and gravel for construction.  In addition, the line began moving rock from various railway-dug quarries along the line.

The railway carried passenger traffic in its early years. Initially, three trains per week carried workers and materials to areas where rail was still being laid. The line was also used by settlers to and from St. Boniface and by home or cottage owners in southeastern Manitoba. The primary cargo was gravel and firewood for the Winnipeg market; the firewood market especially was booming by 1935. Later, the train carried lumber to pulp and paper mills. Passenger service was profitable into the early 1960s. The railway discontinued mixed trains, carrying both freight and passengers, in 1981 and today is freight-only.

Gravel trains were discontinued in 1992, when a concrete manufacturer, Supercrete, shut down its pit at Ross, Manitoba.

In 2013, Winnipeg officials folded the railway's operations into the city's Water and Waste Department.  As a result, the railway has been assigned the task of maintaining and providing security for the aqueduct. It also takes workers and supplies needed for the aqueduct and hauls supplies to the water intake facility at Shoal Lake, returning with contaminated materials.

Physical plant 

The GWWD Winnipeg terminal and facilities are located at 598 Plinguet Street in St. Boniface. The railway's offices are housed in a former passenger depot, although the GWWD no longer operates passenger trains.

South Dakota's 1st congressional district

South Dakota's 1st congressional district is an obsolete congressional district that existed from 1913 to 1983.

When South Dakota was admitted into the Union in 1889, it was allocated two congressional seats, both of which were elected state-wide at-large. This continued until South Dakota received a third congressional seat after the 1910 census, and individual districts were established.

From 1913 until 1933, the newly created 1st District covered 21 counties in southeastern South Dakota, including the state's largest city Sioux Falls. When South Dakota's 3rd congressional district was eliminated after the 1930 census, the 1st District was expanded to include all of the counties in South Dakota east of the Missouri River. Population changes eventually reduced the district size until it again covered just 21 counties in the eastern part of the state. During the 97th Congress, it included the cities of Aberdeen, Brookings, Sioux Falls, Watertown, Vermillion, and Yankton.

It was eliminated as a result of the redistricting cycle after the 1980 census.

Charles Kalms

Charles Kalms (1897-1978) was a British retailer and founder of the Dixons chains that expanded to become the UK's largest electrical retail chain.

Career
Kalms opened the first Dixons photographic studio at 32 High Street, Southend-on-Sea. The business was incorporated as a private company called Dixon Studios Limited and registered on 27 October 1937 with share capital of £100.

Charles Kalms had been selling advertising space on the London Underground when he met Michael Mindel, who had a small photographic studio in Oxford Street but was keen to expand. They became the first directors of the company. When the first studio opened in Southend, the shop front could accommodate a name of no more than six letters. The solution was found in the telephone directory - "Dixons" was short enough to fit over the door.

Throughout the war years there was an unprecedented demand for portrait photography, particularly from service personnel and their families. The company flourished and set up seven studios in the London area. But by the end of the war, the market contracted as dramatically as it had expanded and the company was reduced to a single studio in Edgware, north London.

He and his wife, Sarah "Cissie" Shlagman had a son, Stanley Kalms (later Lord Kalms of Edgware), who joined the business in 1948 at the age of 16. He capitalised on post-war interest in photography. The company began advertising new and second-hand photographic equipment in the trade, local and national press. This laid the foundations for a mail order division which, coupled with "make your own terms" hire-purchase agreements, eventually resulted in a rapid increase in retailing outlets and in Dixons Photographic Limited becoming the dominant photographic equipment retailer in the UK.

In 1971, Charles Kalms stood down as chairman and was succeeded by Stanley. Charles became Life President of the Group.

Sawyers Valley, Western Australia

Sawyers Valley is sited on the Great Eastern Highway about 40 kilometres from Perth, Western Australia in the Shire of Mundaring.
The community began as a sawmill and railway siding to process timber from the forest surrounding the Helena River to the south. Local employment included forest and Goldfields Water Supply Scheme maintenance, small orchards, and the Midland Railway Workshops. The suburb's name comes from the occupation of many of the first European settlers to the area in the 1860s, who were sawyers working at the local saw-pits. The Sawyers Valley Tavern, which sits on the Highway opposite the Railway Reserve Heritage Trail, was first established in 1882 and the Sawyers Valley railway station was built in 1884.

Local activities
The Sawyers Valley township, situated on the north-east corner of Beelu National Park, has many active sporting and community groups, including the Sawyers Valley Voluntary Bush Fire Brigade and the Sawyers Valley Primary School.

The Railway Reserve Heritage Trail and the Golden Pipeline Heritage Trail pass through Sawyers Valley.

John J. Bagley

John Judson Bagley (July 24, 1832 – July 27, 1881) was a politician from the US state of Michigan, as well as the 16th governor of Michigan.

Early life in New York and Michigan
Bagley was born in Medina, New York to John and Mary M. (Smith) Bagley. Bagley was initially raised in Lockport, New York. However, at the age of eight, he moved with his family to Constantine, Michigan. At age thirteen, he moved, this time to the opposite side of the state – to Owosso, Michigan.

Bagley moved to Detroit, Michigan in 1847 as an apprentice and starting his working career in a small chewing tobacco shop of Isaac Miller.  Bagley bought out Miller after seven years and renamed his store the Mayflower Tobacco Company, turning it into an industry leader that competed against other Detroit tobacco brands–at the time, tobacco was a major industry in Detroit.
Bagley was a freemason. He was  member in Charity Lodge No. 94 in Detroit, Michigan.

Politics in Michigan
In 1855, he won election to the Detroit Board of Education, a position he held three years, by which time he had helped found the Republican Party. He also served as an alderman in Detroit. On January 16, 1855, he married in Dubuque, Iowa to Frances E. Newbury, daughter of Rev. Samuel Newbury, a pioneer missionary of Michigan. They had seven children together.

Bagley also served on the Detroit Common Council from 1860 to 1861, and was a member of the Detroit Board of Police Commissioners from 1865 to 1872. Bagley helped to organize the Michigan Mutual Life Insurance Company and served as its president from 1867 to 1872. During that time, he was also chairman of the Michigan Republican Party from 1868 to 1870.

Bagley served as Governor of Michigan between 1873 and 1877. He encouraged the establishment of a state commission to regulate railroads, dealt with the matter of juvenile delinquency, and led the effort to establish the state Board of Health and the state Fish Commission. Bagley, a Unitarian, was an enthusiastic supporter of prohibition and passed the liquor-tax law.

Retirement and death
Bagley died in San Francisco from tuberculosis, three days after his 49th birthday. He was interred in Woodmere Cemetery of Detroit, Michigan.

In 2019, his once believed to be lost statue was discovered in storage at the Detroit Institute of Arts.

Overlap (term rewriting)

In mathematics, computer science and logic, overlap, as a property of the reduction rules in term rewriting system, describes a situation where a number of different reduction rules specify potentially contradictory ways of reducing a reducible expression, also known as a redex, within a term.

More precisely, if a number of different reduction rules share function symbols on the left-hand side, overlap can occur. Often we do not consider trivial overlap with a redex and itself.

Examples

Consider the term rewriting system defined by the following reduction rules:
 
 

The term   can be reduced via ρ1 to yield , but it can also be reduced via ρ2 to yield . Note how the redex   is contained in the redex . The result of reducing different redexes is described in a what is known as a critical pair; the critical pair arising out of this term rewriting system is .

Overlap may occur with fewer than two reduction rules.

Consider the term rewriting system defined by the following reduction rule:
 
The term  has overlapping redexes, which can be either applied to the innermost occurrence or to the outermost occurrence of the  term.

Lou Myers (actor)

Lou Myers (September 26, 1935 – February 19, 2013) was an American actor.

Myers was born in Cabin Creek, West Virginia, the son of Dorothy Jeffries (née Brown).

He was typically typecast as a grumpy old man, but he appeared in many movies, stage plays television sitcoms, and dramas. He got his first break as an understudy in the Broadway play, The First Breeze of Summer as Reverend Mosley. He is perhaps best known as the feisty Mr. Vernon Gaines in the sitcom A Different World. Myers was also an accomplished pianist.
 
Myers died at the Charleston Area Medical Center in West Virginia after battling pneumonia for several months.

Filmography

Awards
Myers won an NAACP Image Award for his role as the Stool Pigeon in the August Wilson play, King Hedley II. He also won the Off-Broadway AUDELCO Award for his role in the play, Fat Tuesday.

In 2005 the Appalachian Education Initiative listed Myers as one of 50 "Outstanding Creative Artists" from the State of West Virginia and featured him in their coffeetable book Art & Soul.

George A. Waggaman

George Augustus Waggaman (1782March 31, 1843) was a United States Senator from Louisiana. Born in Caroline County, Maryland, he completed preparatory studies under private tutors, studied law, and was admitted to the bar in Caroline County in 1811. He served in the War of 1812 under General Andrew Jackson at New Orleans and settled in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, commencing the practice of law in 1813. He was attorney general of the third district of Louisiana in 1813, judge of the third judicial circuit court in 1818, and assistant judge of the criminal court in New Orleans in 1819. He was interested in sugarcane growing and held the office of Secretary of State of Louisiana from 1830 to 1831.

Waggaman was elected as an anti-Jacksonian to the U.S. Senate to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of Edward Livingston and served from November 15, 1831, to March 4, 1835. He resumed the practice of law in New Orleans and again engaged in sugar cane planting. He participated as a principal in a duel with the former mayor of New Orleans, Denis Prieur, a political adversary, and received injuries from which he died in New Orleans in 1843; interment was in Girod Street Cemetery.

In 1840, Waggaman's daughter Christine eloped with a young Canadian lawyer, John Sandfield Macdonald, who made regular trips to Washington on behalf of the government of Upper Canada as Queen's messenger. She joined Macdonald in Upper Canada. He would go on to be joint Premier of the Province of Canada and the first Premier of Ontario.

The New York Rock and Soul Revue

The New York Rock and Soul Revue was a musical project that evolved out of a series of concerts produced and promoted by singer-songwriter Libby Titus at the Lone Star Roadhouse, the Spectrum and other Northeast concert venues, eventually coalescing around unofficial "band leader" Donald Fagen from 1989–1993. Fagen, the frontman and co-founder of Steely Dan, had largely focused on songwriting during that group's near decade-long hiatus in the 80s, and would go on to credit the unique blend of veteran talent Titus had assembled with reigniting his passion for performing live. It featured various musicians including Michael McDonald, Boz Scaggs and Phoebe Snow. 

The project released one album on 25 October 1991: The New York Rock and Soul Revue: Live at the Beacon (Giant Records), a compilation of material recorded earlier that year from live performances at New York City's Beacon Theatre.

Darwin (unit)

The darwin (d) is a unit of evolutionary change, defined by J. B. S. Haldane in 1949.  One darwin is defined to be an e-fold (about 2.718) change in a trait over one million years.  Haldane named the unit after Charles Darwin.

Equation
The equation for calculating evolutionary change in darwins () is:

where  and  are the initial and final values of the trait and  is the change in time in millions of years.  An alternative form of this equation is:

Since the difference between two natural logarithms is a dimensionless ratio, the trait may be measured in any unit. Inexplicably, Haldane defined the millidarwin as 10−9 darwins, despite the fact that the prefix milli- usually denotes a factor of one thousandth (10−3).

Application
The measure is most useful in palaeontology, where macroevolutionary changes in the dimensions of fossils can be compared.  Where this is used it is an indirect measure as it relies on phenotypic rather than genotypic data.  Several data points are required to overcome natural variation within a population.  The darwin only measures the evolution of a particular trait rather than a lineage; different traits may evolve at different rates within a lineage.  The evolution of traits can however be used to infer as a proxy the evolution of lineages.

Shaving Peaches

Shaving Peaches is the fourth album by Terrorvision. Released in 1998 as the follow-up to Regular Urban Survivors, it found the band heading in a more chart-orientated pop direction with co-production from Edwyn Collins. Here, the band push their sound further than before, veering away from metal towards a soft rock sound that uses actual electronic beats. Tracks such as "Day After Day" and "When I Die" retain the melancholy that featured on earlier albums, whilst the rest of the album follows the template of the positive and upbeat single, "Tequila".

Amygdaloid Island

Amygdaloid Island is an island in Lake Superior off the northeastern shore of Isle Royale.  It is within the boundary of Isle Royale National Park, a national park located within the U.S. state of Michigan.  The island is protected and patrolled by a seasonal ranger station operated by the U.S. National Park Service.

Geography
Amygdaloid Island is approximately 3.8 miles (6 km) long but no more than 0.25 miles (0.4 km) wide.  Like the rest of the Isle Royale archipelago, the island is an ancient ridge of basalt oriented from the southwest to the northeast.

Amygdaloid Island is separated by Amygdaloid Channel from Isle Royale.  It had relatively low visitation until the 1990s, when the growth of sea kayaking made it possible for human-powered visitors to approach the island.  The waters of Lake Superior around Amygdaloid Island are notoriously dangerous, and inexperienced kayakers are not encouraged to navigate them.

Geology
The island is the site of the Amygdaloid Island Flow, a deposit of basaltic lava with silica inclusions.  After the lava cooled, the inclusions hardened into pink agate specimens.  The agates of Amygdaloid Island are characteristically almond-shaped or amygdaloidal, hence the name Amygdaloid.

David Jerome

David Howell Jerome (November 17, 1829April 23, 1896) was an American politician. He served as the 18th governor of Michigan (1881–1883); he was the first governor to be born in Michigan.

Early life
He was born in Detroit to Horace and Elizabeth Rose (Hart) Jerome who had emigrated to Michigan from Trumansburg, New York in 1828. He was the last of nine children (four by his first wife, five by his second) born to his father, who died on March 30, 1831. Soon after his father’s death, Jerome's mother returned with her children to her native New York, near Syracuse. In 1834, they returned to Michigan, to a farm in St. Clair County. As a boy he did farm work and excelled in school attending the St. Clair Academy, where he was allowed to remain until the age of sixteen.  He also worked for a time hauling and rafting logs down the St. Clair River to Algonac.

In 1855, Jerome and a brother moved to Saginaw where he served as alderman.  On June 15, 1859, Jerome married Lucy Peck. He enthusiastically helped raise a Civil War regiment in 1862, serving as the colonel of the 23rd Michigan Infantry, and was an active Union supporter throughout his subsequent state senate service.

As a reward for his service to the Union, he was elected a 3rd Class member of the Military Order of the Loyal Legion of the United States.

Politics
Jerome, a Republican, was a merchant by profession. He was a member of the Michigan Senate from the 27th District 1863 to 1866 and from the 26th District 1867 to 1868, and was appointed Chairman of the Committee on State Affairs upon taking office. He also served as Governor Henry Crapo's military aide from 1865 to 1866, and was president of the State Military Board from 1865 to 1873. He was also an alternate delegate to the 1868 Republican National Convention, and, appointed by Governor John J. Bagley, a member of the Michigan state constitutional commission in 1873 from the 8th district, and was Chairman of the Committee on Finance. He served, as well, on the U.S. Board of Indian Commissioners from 1876 to 1881.

On November 2, 1880, Jerome was elected the 18th Governor of Michigan serving from January 1, 1881 to January 1, 1883, defeating Democrat Frederick M. Holloway. During his tenure, an immigration commissioner was named; the Traverse City State Hospital for the Insane was founded; the state's railroad system was advanced; and the Michigan School for the Blind was established in Lansing. He was defeated for re-election in 1882, by Democrat Josiah Begole, ending a record 28-year span of Republican Governors in Michigan.

Retirement and death
Six years after leaving office, he was appointed and served on the Cherokee Commission, which attained land from the Indians to form the Oklahoma Territory.
An Episcopalian, he died in Watkins Glen, New York and is interred at Oakwood Cemetery in Saginaw, Michigan.

Belen, Hatay

Belen is a municipality and district of Hatay Province, Turkey. Its area is 184 km2, and its population is 34,449 (2022).

Etymology
When describing his visit to the region in the 17th century, Evliya Çelebi mentioned that belen means slope in the Turkmen language.

Demographics 
In late 19th century, traveler Martin Hartmann listed 6 of the 12 settlements in the nahiyah of Belen as Turkish and the rest without any information on the population.

Geography 
The district of Belen consists of a small town of the same name and the surrounding villages in the forested slopes of the Nur Mountains. The Belen Pass is the main route across the mountains and joins the coastal city of İskenderun with Antakya. The pass is a key route between Anatolia and the Middle East. The Belen district is known for its cool clean air (especially when compared with the heat of the Mediterranean coast below) and its mountain spring water.

The roadside restaurants in the pass have long been a stopping place for travellers, serving the typical dishes of Hatay, and especially "Belen tava", meats fried in tomatoes, garlic, spices and peppers.

Belen itself is a small market town with a post office and other basics. The people of Belen are conservative; the mayor of the municipality is İbrahim Gül of the Turkish far-right MHP, elected in 2019.

History 
Known in earlier times as "Maziku Bagras" and "Bab-ı İskenderun" the pass was brought into the Ottoman Empire in 1516 after the Battle of Marj Dabiq. The Ottomans posted a guard on the pass, the main route from Syria to Anatolia, and gave the area the name "Belen". In 1535 following a visit by Suleyman the Magnificent a wall was built to secure the pass along with a caravanserai, a mosque and a bathhouse, and with these facilities Turkish families were settled on the mountainside, partly acting as watchkeepers on the pass, along with the military garrison. This early Ottoman architecture is still in place.

The town grew, acquiring the typical Ottoman mix of Muslim and non-Muslim traders and villagers. the 16th century traveller Evliya Çelebi noted the harsh climate, the narrow streets and the forest on the steep hillsides. Belen was key to the defence of the Ottoman Empire during the struggle against the breakaway Egyptian army in 1827. 13,000 people died during the Egyptian struggle to take the pass, they eventually succeeded but during their retreat from Anatolia were harried by bandits at Belen again.

Along with the rest of Hatay State, Belen became part of Turkey in 1939.
