Me and My Uncle

"Me and My Uncle", often also written as "Me & My Uncle," is a song composed by John Phillips of The Mamas and the Papas, and popularized in versions by Judy Collins and the Grateful Dead. It relates the journey of a narrator and his uncle from southern Colorado towards west Texas, involving standard cowboy song themes like a poker game in Santa Fe, accusations of cheating, gunplay, gold, and death.

Performances
John Phillips originally wrote "Me and My Uncle" at a drinking session in a hotel room with Judy Collins, Stephen Stills, and Neil Young among others in 1963. It was first recorded by Judy Collins in 1964 on The Judy Collins Concert.

The song was later covered by the Grateful Dead, who adopted it as part of their standard repertoire, their most ever played live song. Bob Weir is reported to have learned it from James “Curly” Stalarow, a member of the Texas psychedelia scene. The earliest commercially released performance of the song by the Grateful Dead is from the Electric Theater in Chicago, on April 26, 1969, and is available on Dick's Picks Volume 26. One of the earliest performances at the Matrix was  recorded on November 29, 1966. The song continued to be performed regularly until Jerry Garcia's death and the end of the band in 1995.  Since the Grateful Dead disbanded in 1995, the song continues to be a staple of the surviving members' performances.

"Me and My Uncle" has also been performed by Joni Mitchell, John Denver, Dino Valente, Mike Wilhelm, Widespread Panic, Michael Longcor, Billy Strings, Whisky Crick, Max Creek, John Greene, Three Faces West, and by John Phillips himself.

St. Wolfgang im Salzkammergut

St. Wolfgang im Salzkammergut is a market town in central Austria, in the Salzkammergut region of Upper Austria, named after Saint Wolfgang of Regensburg.

Geography
The town is located in central Austria. It is on the northern shore of the Wolfgangsee lake (close to the towns of Strobl and St. Gilgen, both in the State of Salzburg) at the foot of the Schafberg mountain.

Culture 
St. Wolfgang's tourist attractions include the Schafbergbahn (a rack railway that runs up the Schafberg), the Hotel Weißes Rössl (the setting of the operetta White Horse Inn) and a pilgrimage church with a late Gothic altarpiece by Michael Pacher. The railway and the church are among the many St. Wolfgang locations featured in Christmas with Flicka, a 1987 American-Austrian television film starring the operatic mezzo-soprano Frederica von Stade, which was shot entirely in the town and its environs. (As well as being shown on America's PBS, the film was released on VHS, Laserdisc and DVD.)

A destination spa, St. Wolfgang is also a popular winter skiing resort.

History
Saint Wolfgang erected the first church at the shore of the Wolfgangsee after he withdrew to the nearby Mondsee Abbey in 976. According to legend he threw an axe down the mountain to find the site and even persuaded the Devil to contribute to the building by promising him the soul of the first living being ever to enter the church. However Satan was disappointed as the first creature over the doorstep was a wolf.

After Wolfgang's canonization in 1052, the church became a major pilgrimage site, as it was first mentioned in an 1183 deed by Pope Lucius III. In 1481 it was furnished with the famous Pacher polyptych. There had been several places for lodging around the church since medieval times, while the Weißes Rössl hotel was not built until 1878.

During World War II, a subcamp of the Dachau concentration camp was located here.

Transportation
St. Wolfgang can be reached via a branch of the B 158 Wolfgangsee Straße federal highway (Bundesstraße), running from the city of Salzburg to Bad Ischl.

Flags of Norwegian subdivisions

Most of the Norwegian counties and municipalities have their own flag. They are based on the respective coat of arms of the subdivision. However they are seldom used. Most public buildings and private homes use the National flag. Note: As of 2020, many municipalities and counties have been merged. Because of this many of the new regions do not have a current flag and instead the coat of arms will be used for the new regions until a flag is made.

=== Flags of the former counties ===

=== Flags and Coat of Arms of the current regions ===

Although Finnmark and Troms are officially merged, they still use their old county flags as the merging is disputed by locals and officials in Finnmark. The region of Trøndelag uses the old flag of Nord-Trøndelag as it has historical value and connection to king Olav II of Norway.

=== Flags of the municipalities ===

This is just a number of municipalities with their own flags, there are however many more municipalities that do use a flag.

Talpa (mammal)

Talpa is a genus in the mole family Talpidae.  Among the first taxa in science, Carolus Linnaeus used the Latin word for "mole", talpa, in his Regnum Animale to refer to the commonly known European form of mole.  The group has since been expanded to include 13 extant species, found primarily in Europe and western Asia.  The European mole, found throughout most of Europe, is a member of this genus, as are several species restricted to small ranges. One species, Père David's mole, is data deficient.  These moles eat earthworms, insects, and other invertebrates found in the soil.

The females of this genus have rudimentary male features such as Cowper's glands and a two-lobed prostate. A group of scientists has suggested that they are true hermaphrodites; however, others state that they are fully functional females.

There are 14 species in this genus:

 Altai mole, T. altaica
 Aquitanian mole, T. aquitania
 Blind mole, T. caeca
 Caucasian mole, T. caucasica
 Père David's mole, T. davidiana
 European mole, T. europaea
 T. hakkariensis
 Levant mole, T. levantis
 Martino's mole, T. martinorum
 Spanish mole, T. occidentalis
 Ognev's mole, T. ognevi
 Roman mole, T. romana
 Balkan mole, T. stankovici
 Talysch mole, T. talyschensis
 Talpa caucasico
 Talpa hakkariensis
 
In addition, several extinct species are known from fossil remains, here the list:
 †Talpa tyrrhenica T. tyrrhenica
 †Talpa fossilis 
 †Talpa praeglacialis 
 †Talpa minor 
†Talpa vallesensis 
†Talpa episcopalis 
†Talpa gilothi 
†Talpa minuta 
†Talpa gracilis 
†Talpa neagui 
†Talpa tenuidentata

William Martin (Athelhampton)

Sir William Martin of Athelhampton, near Dorchester, Dorset (c. 1446 – 24 March 1503/4) was MP for Dorset in 1478. He built the current Great Hall of Athelhampton in or around 1485. He also received licence to enclose 160 acres (647,000 m2) of deer park and licence to fortify his manor.

William Martin was born about 1446, the son and heir of Thomas Martin of Athelhampton, and his wife Elizabeth Clevedon.

Family and legacy
William Martin married twice. He first married Isolde or Isabel Farrington, who had a son with him, Christopher Martin. He then married Christina or Christian Paulet, who had a son Richard Martin and daughter Elizabeth Martyn with him.  Elizabeth Martyn married John Carew.

He died in 1504, and was buried at nearby St Mary the Virgin, Puddletown, where effigies of him and his family can still be seen.

He has sometimes been conflated (eg in "An Inventory of the Historical Monuments in Dorset, Volume 3, Central. Her Majesty's Stationery Office, London, 1970") with another Sir William Martyn, who was Lord Mayor of London around the same time.

Glebionis

Glebionis is a small genus of flowering plants in the family Asteraceae, native to Europe and the Mediterranean region. The species were formerly treated in the genus Chrysanthemum, but a 1999 ruling of the International Botanical Congress has resulted in that genus being redefined to cover the species related to the economically important florist's chrysanthemum, thereby excluding the species now included in Glebionis.

Glebionis species have been hybridized with related Argyranthemum species to create cultivars of garden marguerites.

Species
Glebionis coronaria (syn. Chrysanthemum coronarium) – crown daisy - central, + southern Europe
Glebionis segetum (syn. Chrysanthemum segetum) – Corn Marigold - northern, central, + southern Europe

Formerly placed here
Ismelia carinata, as Glebionis carinata – tricolor daisy

Antidromic

An antidromic impulse in an axon refers to conduction opposite of the normal (orthodromic) direction. That is, it refers to conduction along the axon away from the axon terminal(s) and towards the soma.  For most neurons, their dendrites, soma, or axons are depolarized forming an action potential that moves from the starting point of the depolarization (near the cell body) along the axons of the neuron (orthodromic). Antidromic activation is often induced experimentally by direct electrical stimulation of a presumed target structure. Antidromic activation is often used in a laboratory setting to confirm that a neuron being recorded from projects to the structure of interest.

Giovanni Battista Buonamente

Giovanni Battista Buonamente (ca. 1595 – 1642) was an Italian composer and violinist in the early Baroque era. He served the Gonzagas in Mantua until about 1622, and from about 1626 to 1630 served the Holy Roman Emperor Ferdinand II, Holy Roman Emperor in Vienna. Notably, in 1627 he played for the coronation festivities in Prague of Ferdinand III, son of the emperor. He then served as the violinist of Madonna della Steccata church in Parma. After a short service there, he arrived at his final position in 1633 of maestro di cappella at Assisi.

Works
His work is characteristic of early Baroque style, as evidenced in his Sonata 6. Brass, which was popularized in an arrangement by Robert King.
Il quarto libro de varie de sonate, sinfonie, gagliarde, corrente, e brandi per sonar con due violini & un basso di viola (Venice, 1626) 
Il sesto libro di sonate et canzoni... (Venice, 1636)

Texas Pacifico Transportation

Texas Pacifico Transportation Ltd.  is a Class III railroad operating company in West Texas owned by Grupo México. The company operates over the South Orient Rail Line under a lease and operating agreement with the Texas Department of Transportation and  Texas Pacifico Transportation, Ltd.  The Texas Pacifico company began service in March 2001.

The South Orient Rail Line runs from San Angelo Junction (near Coleman, Texas) to the Mexican border town of Presidio, Texas. The line has been rehabilitated from San Angelo Junction through San Angelo and on to Alpine, Texas. Capital improvements are underway for the remaining Excepted track.

Texas Pacifico interchanges with BNSF Railway and Fort Worth and Western Railroad at San Angelo Junction and Union Pacific Railroad at Alpine. Traffic had been interchanged with Ferromex at Presidio over the Presidio–Ojinaga International Rail Bridge, but the bridge has been out of service following fire damage on 29 February 2008.  Service into Mexico over the repaired bridge is expected to resume after the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) inspection facility has been installed.

Cornet (rank)

Cornet was originally the lowest grade of commissioned officer in a British cavalry troop, the modern equivalent being a second lieutenant. The rank was abolished by the 1871 Cardwell Reforms, which replaced it with sub-lieutenant.  Although obsolete, the term is still used as an internal title of address when referring to a second lieutenant within the British Army regiments of the Blues and Royals and Queen's Royal Hussars.

The cornet rank was also used by other nations such as the Imperial Russian Army and the Prussians.

Etymology
A cornet or "cornet of horse" was in the 17th and 18th century a term for a group of cavalry (typically 100–300 men), so-called because it was accompanied by a cornet player (a trumpet-like instrument, from Old French cornet (14c.), Latin cornū, "horn"). Later "cornet" came to refer to the fifth commissioned officer in a cavalry troop, who carried the colours; it never referred to the cornet player himself. An alternative etymology claims that the term is derived from a cornette, a woman's headdress, with a strip of lace hanging down from a headdress against the cheeks; later it referred to the pennon of a cavalry troop.

History 
The rank was in use by the time of the English Civil War. Among famous cornets in that conflict were George Joyce, Robert Stetson, and Ninian Beall.  It was abolished along with the purchase of commissions in the Army Reform Act of 1871, replaced by second lieutenant.

The ranks of ensign and cornet were abolished in the US Army in 1815.

The rank also existed in other nations' cavalry troops, such as those of Denmark (kornet), Sweden (kornett) and Imperial Russia (корнет), and by the Continental Army in the American War of Independence. General Alexander Macomb was initially commissioned a cornet in a career in which he eventually became Commanding General of the United States Army. It is still used in the artillery and cavalry divisions of the Netherlands (kornet).

The rank of field cornet (veldkornet) was used for the senior officer of a ward or sub-district in the independent republican states of the Transvaal and Oranje-Vrystaat in late 19th century South Africa. They were elected by the commandos of their ward for periods of three years. In the case of large wards, an assistant field cornet could also be chosen. The rank was reminiscent of the Dutch use in cavalry troops that the commandos most closely resembled. In apartheid-era South Africa, the rank of field cornet was used in the South African Army from 1960 to 1968.

Traditional duties 
The subaltern rank of cornet was the equivalent of the contemporary infantry rank of ensign; today both have been supplanted by the rank of second lieutenant. The cornet carried the troop standard, known as a "guidon".

Orthodromic

An orthodromic impulse runs along an axon in its anterograde direction, away from the soma.

In the heart, orthodromic may also refer to an impulse going in the correct direction from the dendrites to axon terminal (from the atria to the ventricles) in contrast to some impulses in re-entry.

Murder of Brian Bishop

PC Brian John Bishop (24 July 1947 – 27 August 1984) was a British police officer who was shot in the head by an armed robber in Frinton-on-Sea, Essex, on 22 August 1984. He died from his injuries five days later in a London hospital.

Background
Brian Bishop joined the former Essex Constabulary in 1962 as a fifteen-year-old cadet. Bishop was 6 ft 7 in tall when he became PC 389 on 11 August 1966 and was posted to Colchester. He joined the dog section as a handler in 1968 and moved to the Force Support Unit in 1975. Later, he became a firearms instructor. He had been assigned to the rank of Acting Sergeant before he died.

Death
The epitaph next to Bishop's memorial stone summarises the circumstances surrounding his death as follows:

Five days after the shooting in Central Avenue near Frinton's seafront took place, Bishop died at St. Bartholomew's Hospital in Smithfield, London, on 27 August 1984. His colleague Sergeant Mervyn Fairweather, who was shot in the groin in the same incident, later recovered.

Conviction
Colin Richards, a 35-year-old man from Brentwood, was arrested at the scene after another of Bishop's colleagues returned fire. Richards's injuries resulted in paralysis from the waist downwards. He was found guilty of Bishop's murder and of wounding Fairweather (having been charged with the latter's attempted murder) at Norwich Crown Court on 19 July 1985, and was sentenced to life imprisonment with a minimum tariff of 20 years.

Memorial
On 19 February 1986, the then Home Secretary, Douglas Hurd, unveiled a brown granite memorial stone adjacent to the seafront site where Bishop was shot. Bishop's memorial was only the third to be funded and erected by the Police Memorial Trust, and was the first to be sited outside London.

Arithmetic (song)

"Arithmetic" is a single by Brooke Fraser released in 2004. The song is the first track of Fraser's debut album What to Do with Daylight. The song was later included on the Sony BMG compilation More Nature, a collection of songs from the New Zealand Sony BMG catalogue.

The song debuted on the New Zealand Singles Chart at number thirty eight on 26 July 2004 and peaked at number eight. It spent nineteen weeks on the chart.

Music clip
The film clip for "Arithmetic" features Fraser in a dimly lit studio surrounded by fairy lights and with fairy lights all over her piano. As the song only features piano and a string quartet, the quartet is also visible in another part of the studio with their music stands also lit by fairy lights. For this abundance of fairy lights, "Arithmetic" was awarded the satirical award for "Most used fairy lights in a video clip" in the 2004 Studio 2 Awards.
