William Oakley (footballer)

William John Oakley (27 April 1873 — 20 September 1934) was an English footballer who, during the Victorian era, played as a full-back for the renowned amateur clubs, the Corinthians and Casuals, and captained the England team once, in a match against Ireland in 1901. In 1894, he was also the English long jump champion.

Early life and education

Born at Shrewsbury, Shropshire, the eldest of five children, Oakley was educated at Shrewsbury School and Christ Church, Oxford. Oakley played football for his school from 1887-1892, captaining the side in his final year, and also rowed for his school. After going up to Oxford, Oakley became President of the athletics club in 1895, representing the university in long jump and 120 yard hurdles.

Club career

Oakley played, in total, 121 games for Corinthian FC, in which he scored just 1 goal. Playing games against all the great professional sides of the era, Oakley was an assured defender whose peak years for the club were the 1898/99 season and the 1899/1900 season, during which he rarely missed a match. He would then play for Casuals F.C.

International career

Oakley made his England debut in a 1-1 draw against Wales during the 1894–95 British Home Championship. He would go on to win a total of 16 England caps between 1895 and 1901, and won his only game as captain against Ireland in the 1900–01 British Home Championship, England winning 3–0.

Cricket

Oakley also played cricket at club level for Shrewsbury and appeared at county level for Shropshire in one match in 1900 when he made 20 runs.

Personal life

He was a close friend of the England centre forward G. O. Smith, with whom he worked as a schoolmaster, and eventually as joint headmaster, of Ludgrove School after retiring from football.

He died at Carlisle, Cumberland, in September 1934 aged 61 following injuries sustained in a road accident.

Manuel de Mendiburu

Manuel de Mendiburu (1805–1885) was a Peruvian statesman and historian born in Lima.

He was educated at the University of San Marcos.  When the movement for independence reached Peru, he joined the patriot army as a color sergeant in 1821.  As lieutenant he distinguished himself in various battles, and was captured by the Spanish. After the end of the war was made captain (1830) and by 1851 had reached the rank of general.  He filled various roles during his long and active political career.  In 1831 he was sent on special missions to Brazil and Spain. From 1834 to 1870 he was employed in the government service, filling successively the positions of prefect of various departments; holding the portfolios of Government, Finance, Foreign Relations, and War and Marine; serving as deputy in congress, Vice President of the Constituent Assembly, and Minister of Peru to England, to Bolivia, and to Chile.  

In 1870 he was placed in charge of the School of Arts and Trades at Lima.  He organized the Archivo Nacional de Lima, which contains his monumental work Diccionario histórico-biográfico del Perú (1874-85).  The publication is invaluable for the study of Peruvian history, especially during the colonial epoch.

Two digitized volumes are available at the Virtual Library Miguel de Cervantes.

Hunter Johnson (composer)

Hunter Johnson (April 14, 1906 – August 27, 1998) was an American composer. His compositions include a piano sonata and the orchestral music for Martha Graham's ballets Letter to the World, based on the life and poetry of Emily Dickinson, and Deaths and Entrances. His musical style was a combination of neoclassic, neoromantic, and nationalist.

Johnson was born near Benson, North Carolina. He attended Benson High School and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill before leaving the state to finish his undergraduate studies at the Eastman School of Music in 1929. UNC later awarded him an honorary doctorate. He taught at the University of Michigan (1929–33), the University of Manitoba (1944–47), Cornell (1948–53), the University of Illinois (1959–65) and the University of Texas (1966–71). He retired in 1971 and returned to the family farm in Benson. He was the first composer laureate of North Carolina, an award he received in 1991.

Anya Teixeira

Anya Teixeira (1913 – 1992) was a Russian Empire-born British street photographer and photojournalist. Her work is held in the collection of the Victoria and Albert Museum, London.

Biography
Teixeira's family escaped the Russian Revolution in 1917, through a rescue mounted by her uncle Morris Gest, a New York City impresario. The family settled in Berlin in 1924 so as to be near at hand for the expected overthrow of the Bolshevik regime. Fifteen years later her family had to flee from the Nazis. Arriving in England in April, 1939, she found that refugees like her were only allowed to be domestic servants or factory workers but she was eventually allowed an office job. She was to be penned into various secretarial positions until her retirement in 1975. Photography was a spare time activity taken up seriously at age 47. Three years later she co-founded the Creative Photo Group in London which drew approval from the historians Helmut and Alison Gernsheim in their book A Concise History of Photography.

Chi Carinae

Chi Carinae, Latinised from χ Carinae (), is a star in the southern constellation of Carina. It is a third-magnitude star and is one of the brighter members of the constellation. The distance to the star can be determined directly through parallax measurements, yielding an estimate of roughly  with a 6.7% margin of error. This star is a suspected astrometric binary, although nothing is known about the companion.

This is a massive star, with about seven times the mass of the Sun. It is about 40 million years old and rotating rapidly; the projected rotational velocity has been measured as high as . The spectrum of this star matches a stellar classification of B3 IV, with the luminosity class of IV indicating this is likely a subgiant star that has nearly exhausted the supply of hydrogen at its core and is in the process of evolving into a giant star.

In 1969, Chi Carinae was classified as chemically peculiar Ap star because its absorption lines of silicon appeared unusually strong relative to the lines for helium. However, subsequent examination in the ultraviolet band showed the silicon bands were as expected and it was determined the spectra is normal for a star of its type. There is no indication of variability in the star's spectrum. Observation during the Hipparcos mission showed no photometric variability down to a limit of ±0.003 magnitude. For this reason, the star has been ruled out as a Beta Cephei-type variable star.

Cetinje Octoechos

The Cetinje Octoechos ( or Cetinjski oktoih) is an Orthodox liturgical book printed in 1494 in Cetinje, the capital  of the Principality of Zeta (present-day Montenegro). It is the first incunabulum written in the Serbian recension of Church Slavonic, as well as the first book printed in Cyrillic in Southeast Europe. The octoechos was produced  under the direction of Hieromonk Makarije at the Crnojević printing house, which was founded in 1493 by Đurađ Crnojević, the ruler of Zeta. Printed in two instalments, its first volume contains the hymns to be sung to the first four tones of the Octoechos system of musical modes, and the hymns for the remaining four tones are included in the second volume. The two volumes are called Octoechos of the First Tone (Oktoih prvoglasnik) and Octoechos of the Fifth Tone (Oktoih petoglasnik), respectively.

Octoechos of the First Tone
Octoechos of the First Tone (Oktoih prvoglasnik) was finished on 4 January 1494. There are 108 copies of this book which survived. It contains 270 leaves sized 29 x 21.6 cm. It is characterized by high quality and clean two-coloured printing, red and black, with finely formed letters. It is decorated with headpieces and initials printed from woodcuts in the spirit of the Renaissance with traces of old manuscript traditions. In the quality of its print and decoration it is considered to be at the same level as Venetian production at that time. The National Library of Montenegro "Đurđe Crnojević" in Cetinje published 600 facsimiles of Octoechos of the First Tone in 1987.

Octoechos of the Fifth Tone

Octoechos of the Fifth Tone (Oktoih petoglasnik) represents the first illustrated South Slavic incunabulum. It is preserved in fragments, the longest one containing 37 leaves. It has six woodcut illustrations, made by an artist who managed to put rather complex compositions with many characters on a relatively small space.

Liati Mayk-Hai

Liati N. Mayk-Hai (born 1981) is an American singer-songwriter, visual artist, poet, athlete and scholar.

Biography
Liati N. Mayk-Hai is from Eatontown, in Monmouth County, New Jersey. She is the daughter of Judaic ceremonial artist, Nissan Graham-Mayk, whose porcelain "Miriam Cup" was in a ten-year exhibition at the Jewish Museum in New York City from 1992 to 2002.

Mayk-Hai is the songwriter, composer, lead singer and guitarist in the semi-eponymous band Cafe Liati based in New York. Cafe Liati's debut album, "Love Is All There Is," is a collection of 14 original folk-songs and was released in early 2004.  "Love Is All There Is" was recorded as an independent project of Cafe Liati Music at Retromedia Sound Studios in Red Bank, New Jersey with the guidance of studio engineer and co-producer John Noll. Mayk-Hai is also a singer for an electronic music project called Smooth, based out of Tel Aviv, Israel.  The Smooth album was released on Chicago's Real Estate Records in April 2004 and has been used on the soundtracks for such TV shows as MTV's The Real World: San Diego (Episodes 2,3, 13, 17), HBO's Six Feet Under (Season 4, Episode 43), and Fox's Nip/Tuck (Episode 2).  Mayk-Hai was rumored to be working on a collaboration with Jewish folk rapper Matt Bar during 2006–7.

As a visual artist, Mayk-Hai is primarily involved with oil painting and photography. She is currently working on a series of oil paintings that depict both the urban and natural landscapes of Israel vis-à-vis Neve Tzedek, a Tel Aviv neighborhood. Her work is a fusion of impressionism and photo-realism and has been most influenced by the work of Van Gogh, Nachum Gutman and Max Ferguson.

Also a competitive athlete, Mayk-Hai played second-base and left-field for the Bronze Medal winning Israeli Woman's National Softball team (Maccabiah; not the Olympics).  The team, established in 2002, has competed in the European Championships in Saronno, Italy (2003), Prague (2005), Zagreb, Croatia (2007) and Antwerp, Belgium (2009). Mayk-Hai's sister, Shyella Mayk, one of the team's main pitchers, who is also a physical education teacher at Heritage Middle School in Livingston, New Jersey, pitched for Quinnipiac University's Division 1 Softball Team from 1996 to 2000 and was a main force in the formation of the Israeli Woman's National Softball team.

Dr. Liati Mayk-Hai is a member of the Judaic Studies faculty at Golda Och Academy in West Orange, New Jersey.

Julius Miller

Julius Miller (January 12, 1880 – February 3, 1955) was a judge and politician in New York City. He was a public figure for four decades, serving as Manhattan Borough President from 1922 to 1930, and as a New York State Supreme Court judge from 1933 to 1950. He is best remembered for pushing through the West Side Elevated Highway from 72nd Street to the tip of Manhattan.

Life
Miller was Jewish.

He graduated from New York Law School and became an attorney in 1901. Miller was a member of the New York State Senate (17th D.) in 1919 and 1920.  He was borough president of Manhattan from 1922 to 1930.  In 1924 he was an alternate delegate to the 1924 Democratic National Convention.  In 1933 he became a justice of the New York Supreme Court (1st D.), and served until 1950.

As borough president, he promoted the construction of the Park Avenue Viaduct through the New York Central Building and around Grand Central Terminal, the establishment of the center strip on Park Avenue, and the replacing of the Sixth Avenue elevated train. As a judge, Miller claimed the distinction of never having been reversed by an appellate court on any of the cases in equity where he decided suits without a jury. This was believed to be unique among New York jurists. Upon retirement, he was replaced by Justice Samuel Gold.

In 1930, Miller received The Hundred Year Association of New York's Gold Medal Award "in recognition of outstanding contributions to the City of New York."

Miller had a summer home in Far Rockaway, which later was incorporated into the campuses of two Orthodox Jewish schools, the Hebrew Institute of Long Island and Yeshiva Darchei Torah.

The New York Daily News listed him as deceased three years before his death.

Miller retired in 1950, and died at his home in New York City on February 3, 1955. His funeral was attended by over 400 people.

Legacy 
New York Route 9A, the "West Side Highway," is the direct replacement for the Miller Highway ("West Side Elevated Highway") that was named after Julius Miller.

Miller was instrumental in finishing the Park Avenue Viaduct, an elevated stretch of Manhattan's Park Avenue that carries vehicles around and through buildings that sit on the normal path of the roadbed. The Park Avenue Viaduct remains in use , and is designated a National Historic Landmark,

Its apparent magnitude varies from about 3.4 to 4.1, making it readily visible to the naked eye and one of the brightest members of Carina. Based upon parallax measurements, it is approximately  from Earth.

From the characteristics of its spectrum, l Carinae has a stellar classification of G5 Iab/Ib. This indicates the star has reached a stage in its evolution where it has expanded to become a supergiant with 169 times the radius of the Sun. As this is a massive star with 8–13 times the mass of the Sun, it rapidly burns through its supply of nuclear fuel and has become a supergiant in roughly , after spending  as a main sequence star.

l Carinae is classified as a Cepheid variable star and its brightness varies over an amplitude range of 0.725 in magnitude with a long period of 35.560 days. This unusually long period makes it essential for calibrating the period-luminosity relation for Cepheid variables; additionally, it is one of the nearest Cepheid variables, making it relatively easy to observe. The radial velocity of the star likewise varies by 39 km/s during each pulsation cycle. Its radius varies by about  as it pulsates, reaching maximum size as its brightness is decreasing towards minimum.

It has a compact circumstellar envelope that can be discerned using interferometry. The envelope has been resolved at an infrared wavelength of 10μm, showing a radius of 10–100 AU at a mean temperature of 100 K. The material for this envelope was supplied by mass ejected from the central star.

The period of l Carinae is calculated to be slowly increasing and it is thought to be crossing the instability strip for the third time, cooling as it evolves towards a red supergiant after a blue loop.

A. J. Butcher

Andrew James Butcher, better known as A.J. Butcher, is an English writer best known for the futuristic teen spy series, Spy High. Butcher taught English at both Poole Grammar School and Parkstone Grammar School, in Poole, Dorset, and currently teaches at Talbot Heath School in Bournemouth, Dorset. He took a sabbatical from his teaching career to write Spy High Series Two. He says he has been influenced by Charles Dickens and George Orwell, but that Stan Lee, creator of many of Marvel Comics' super-heroes, is his biggest inspirational figure.

The series is published by Atom Books in the UK and Commonwealth and Little, Brown and Co. in the US. The first series has also been translated into many other languages.

Spy High: Series 1

The first series he had written consists of six books, similar to the second series. Each book is about the Bond Team's struggle through their education. They must defeat criminals and viruses, and possibly most importantly of all, they must accept the death of a teammate and trust the replacement.

HMS Oxford

Two ships of the Royal Navy have borne the name HMS Oxford, after the city of Oxford:

 (i) was a 26-gun fifth-rate ship launched at Deptford in 1656. The ship was given to Colonel Sir Thomas Modyford, the Governor of Jamaica, in March 1667 and, under command of Sir Henry Morgan, was blown up by accident somewhere off Île à Vache, off the coast of Haïti in 1669.
 (ii) was a 54-gun fourth-rate ship launched in 1674. She was rebuilt in 1702, and again in 1727 when she was rearmed to 50 guns. The vessel was broken up in 1758.

Zirconium(II) hydride

Zirconium(II) hydride is a molecular chemical compound with the chemical formula . It is a grey crystalline solid or dark gray to black powder. It has been prepared by laser ablation and isolated at low temperature.

Zirconium(II) hydride has repeatedly been the subject of Dirac–Hartree–Fock relativistic calculation studies, which investigate the stabilities, geometries, and relative energies of hydrides of the formula , , , or MH.

Zirconium(II) hydride has a dihedral (C2v) structure. In zirconium(II) hydride, the formal oxidation states of zirconium and hydrogen are +2 and −1, respectively, because the electronegativity of zirconium is lower than that of hydrogen. The stability of metal hydrides with the formula  (M = Ti, Zr, Hf) decreases from Ti to Hf.

Uses
Zirconium(II) hydride is used as a thermal neutron moderator in nuclear reactors and as a material for neutron reflectors in fast reactors.

Zirconium(II) hydride in the form of a powder is used in powder metallurgy as a hydrogenation catalyst, vacuum tube getter, foaming agent in the production of metal foams and as a reducing agent.

Forgotten Coast

The Forgotten Coast refers to a largely untouched and uninhabited area of coastline in the panhandle of the US state of Florida. The term, also a trademark, was first used in 1992, but the Forgotten Coast's exact location is not agreed upon.

Description 
The Forgotten Coast is a trademark first used by the Apalachicola Bay Chamber of Commerce on September 1, 1992.  The name is most commonly used to refer to a relatively quiet, undeveloped and largely uninhabited section of coastline stretching from Mexico Beach on the Gulf of Mexico to St. Marks on Apalachee Bay in the U.S. state of Florida. The nearest major cities are Tallahassee, about 90 miles northeast of Apalachicola, and Panama City, home of Tyndall Air Force Base, about 60 miles to the northwest.

The Tourist Development Council of Franklin County defines the Forgotten Coast as Franklin County itself. They add that the Forgotten Coast got its name "because it’s the last remaining stretch of unspoiled, pristine Gulf Coast beaches that haven’t been overrun by high rises and strip malls." In the council's definition of the Forgotten Coast, there are 200 miles of coastline, 5 islands, and nearly 100 historic sites, and it is a part of the Big Bend geographic region.

Communities 
In addition to the endpoints, it encompasses the coastal communities of (west to east):

 Port St. Joe 
 Cape San Blas
 Apalachicola
 Eastpoint
 Carrabelle
 Lanark Village
 Alligator Point
 Panacea
 Shell Point

These communities are located in the following counties, which by extension may be included in references to the Forgotten Coast by some writers:

 Gulf County, Florida
 Franklin County, Florida
 Wakulla County, Florida

The area is renowned for its oyster and shrimp production, marine wildlife, and fine white-sand beaches.  Peninsulas and barrier islands along the coast include:

Gulf County:
 St. Joseph Peninsula 
 Cape San Blas
Franklin County:
 St. Vincent Island
 Cape St. George Island
 St. George Island
 Dog Island

Protected natural and historic areas include:

 St. Joseph Peninsula State Park

HD 90264

HD 90264 is a binary star system in the southern constellation of Carina. It has the Bayer designation of L Carinae, while HD 90264 is the star's identifier in the Henry Draper catalogue. This system has a blue-white hue and is faintly visible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude of 4.97. It is located at a distance of approximately 402 light years from the Sun based on parallax, and is drifting further away with a radial velocity of around +12 km/s. The system is a member of the Lower Centaurus Crux association of the Sco-Cen Complex.

This system was found to be a close double-lined spectroscopic binary in 1977, consisting of two B-type main-sequence stars. It has a near circular orbit with a period of 15.727 days and a semimajor axis of . They appear to be spin-orbit synchronized. Both stars appear to be deficient in helium. The primary is a helium variable star while the companion is a mercury-manganese star. The variability of both stars aligns favorably with the orbital period.

Holstein interglacial

The Holstein interglacial ( or Holstein-Interglazial), also called the Mindel-Riss interglacial (Mindel-Riß-Interglazial) in the Alpine region, is the third to last major interglacial before the Holocene, the present warm period. It followed directly after the Elster glaciation and came before the Saale glaciation, during the Middle Pleistocene. The more precise timing is controversial since Holstein is commonly correlated to two different marine isotope stages, MIS 11 (424–374 thousand years ago) and MIS 9 (337–300 thousand years ago). This ambiguity is much related to the correlation problem described in more detail in the article 'Elster glaciation'.

Definition 
The Holstein interglacial is defined by marine sedimentation. On the stratigraphic record at the natural monument of :de:Sievertsche Tongrube in Hamburg-Hummelsbüttel, its development is traced from the Elster ice age (Lauenburg clay) through the start of the warm period (freshwater depositions) to its flooding by the Holstein Sea (Cardien Sands).

John Delamare

Sir John Delamare ( 1320 – 1383) was a knight at the court of King Edward III of England and the builder of Nunney Castle in Somerset.

He gained permission to turn his manor house at Nunney into Nunney Castle in 1373. He was successively High Sheriff of Wiltshire (1374) and then High Sheriff of Somerset and Dorset (1377) and also Knight of the Shire for the same two counties, Wiltshire in 1376 and Somerset in 1373, 1377, and 1382.

He was also lord of the manor of Fisherton Delamare and Bishopstrow in Wiltshire. His heiress was his niece Eleanor Delamere, who died in 1413. Through her marriage to William Paulet, Nunney and Fisherton passed to another William Paulet, 1st Marquess of Winchester.

Hydrodynamic radius

The hydrodynamic radius of a macromolecule or colloid particle is .  The macromolecule or colloid particle is a collection of  subparticles.  This is done most commonly for polymers; the subparticles would then be the units of the polymer.   is defined by

where  is the distance between subparticles  and , and where the angular brackets  represent an ensemble average. The theoretical hydrodynamic radius  was originally an estimate by John Gamble Kirkwood of the Stokes radius of a polymer, and some sources still use hydrodynamic radius as a synonym for the Stokes radius.

Note that in biophysics, hydrodynamic radius refers to the Stokes radius, or commonly to the apparent Stokes radius obtained from size exclusion chromatography.

The theoretical hydrodynamic radius  arises in the study of the dynamic properties of polymers moving in a solvent.  It is often similar in magnitude to the radius of gyration.

Applications to aerosols 
The mobility of non-spherical aerosol particles can be described by the hydrodynamic radius. In the continuum limit, where the mean free path of the particle is negligible compared to a characteristic length scale of the particle, the hydrodynamic radius is defined as the radius that gives the same magnitude of the frictional force,  as that of a sphere with that radius, i.e.

where  is the viscosity of the surrounding fluid, and  is the velocity of the particle. This is analogous to the Stokes' radius, however this is untrue as the mean free path becomes comparable to the characteristic length scale of the particulate - a correction factor is introduced such that the friction is correct over the entire Knudsen regime. As is often the case, the Cunningham correction factor  is used, where:

,

where  were found by Millikan to be: 1.234, 0.414, and 0.876 respectively.
