Texas State Highway Loop 9

Loop 9 is a proposed state highway that will be located on the southern fringes of the Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex along the southern Dallas County line westward into northern Johnson County. It will measure about  in length. Although it can be considered the southern counterpart to the President George Bush Turnpike (PGBT), it is actually being re-integrated into a plan for a broad outer loop that would extend far north of the metroplex. Loop 9 and the outer loop are part of a long-term plan to serve the expanding DFW population, forecasted to number 10 million circa 2040.

The alignment of Loop 9 is still under study by a task force under the direction of county governments. The route is expected to start somewhere in southern Mesquite, Texas at an interchange with Interstate 20 where it may connect with either the PGBT or a proposed Rockwall/Kaufman County Outer Loop. It will run from that point southwest to Interstate 45 in Ferris, to Interstate 35E in Glenn Heights, just north of Red Oak. It will continue west through Ovilla and U.S. Highway 67 in Cedar Hill, intersecting at U.S. Highway 287 near Mansfield. It would terminate near the Chisholm Trail Parkway southwest of Fort Worth. By 2030, planning authorities expect Loop 9 to serve as part of a large outer loop encircling the metroplex.

The corridor was first identified in 1968 and a preliminary study completed in 1995. A final decision on the route was projected to be made by 2009, but remains undecided. No funding has been set aside for what is likely to become a US$500 million to $1 billion project. The Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS) originally expected to be completed in 2009 was also not completed as of 2012, and TxDOT estimates of a 2015 opening have passed. The proposed road has been affected by a national recession, a construction slowdown, and a severe shortage of state highway funds  and may remain in the planning stages for many years.

History

The number was assigned to Spur 9 originally, which was designated from US 70 to Olton on September 26, 1939, as a renumbering of SH 28 Spur. On June 21, 1955, this became part of FM 304, which became part of FM 168 on October 31, 1958.

On May 6, 1969, Loop 9 was designated from I-20 north, east, south, west, and northwest back to I-20. On October 21, 1977, Loop 9 was cancelled and portions became SH 161 and SH 190 the same day. The Loop 9 designation was restored on June 29, 2017, to an unbuilt highway from I-35E to I-45.

Gerrit Graham

Gerrit Graham (born November 27, 1948) is an American stage, television, and film actor as well as a scriptwriter and songwriter. He is best known for his appearances in multiple films by Brian De Palma as well as appearances in two Star Trek series. He voiced Franklin Sherman on The Critic.

Education
Graham attended but did not graduate from Columbia University. At Columbia, he was the head of Columbia Players, the college theater company. His future co-worker, Brian De Palma, was also a former manager of the student group during his undergraduate years.

Career

Actor

Film
He has appeared in movies such as Used Cars, TerrorVision, National Lampoon's Class Reunion, Child's Play 2 and Greetings, where he worked with Brian De Palma for the first time. He would again work with De Palma on Hi, Mom and Home Movies, as well as Phantom of the Paradise, where he played flamboyant glam-rocker Beef. Sheila Benson of the Los Angeles Times remarked that Graham and Jon Lovitz were the only actors in Last Resort who were "exempt from the bad-accent stigma."

Television
Graham was the voice of Franklin Sherman in the animated series The Critic as well as a recurring role as Dr. Norman Pankow on the sitcom Parker Lewis Can't Lose.

He has appeared in two different roles on the Star Trek television series: as the alien hunter of Tosk on Star Trek: Deep Space Nine and as a member of the Q Continuum (adopting the name Quinn) in the Star Trek: Voyager episode "Death Wish".  He had been short listed to play the character of Odo, which went to René Auberjonois.

Stage
Graham is a stage performer whose performances in the 1986 improvisational show Sills & Company and the 1987 play Bouncers by John Godber were positively reviewed by the New York Times. Julio Martinez of Variety.com called Graham "eerily evocative" of Allard Lowenstein in Dreams Die Hard in 1995. Frank Rizzo of Variety.com wrote that Graham had "some of the best lines" in his performance as Father Charles Dunbar in The God Committee in 2004. He also played Julian in Communicating Doors in 1998.

Writer
Graham wrote the teleplays for the episodes "Still Life" and "Opening Day" of the 1980s version of The Twilight Zone. He did not write "Welcome to Winfield", the only episode in which he appeared as a member of the cast.

Dixie Beehives (2005–2011)

The Dixie Beehives were a Canadian Junior "A" ice hockey team from Etobicoke, Ontario. They were a part of the Ontario Junior Hockey League.  The team originated in Oswego, New York as the Oswego Admirals.

History

Oswego Admirals 2005–2007
The Dixie Beehives began as the Oswego Admirals, a Junior A team in the east Division of the OPJHL in 2005 out of Oswego, New York and played out of Romney Field House Ice Rink. In 2006 local business man and hockey fan Joe Moore approached the OPJHL about acquiring a team. The Admirals were for sale and arrangement were made to purchase the team and bring it to Toronto suburb of Weston, Ontario where ice time was procured at Weston Arena.

The Admirals were owned by the same man who owned the Syracuse Jr. Crunch, but are not the same franchise as the Crunch as they currently play in the United States. Their first season went well as they earned a birth into the playoffs. Nine games under .500 on the season, the Admirals did not survive past the first round of their first season. 

The Admirals' first ever game was a 3–1 loss to the Kingston Voyageurs on September 8, 2005.  During that game, the franchise's first ever goal was scored by Jason Deluca. The goalie to start this historic game was Mark Schacker. The Admirals' first home game took place on September 22, 2006—a 2–2 tie with the Cobourg Cougars. Evan Lucas scored the Admirals' first ever home goal while Cory Gershon picked up the tie in net. Their first win was also against the Kingston Voyageurs at home, a 5–2 victory on September 23, 2005.  Corey Callen scored the eventual game-winning-goal and Gershon stopped 30 of 32 shots for that first team victory.

After a good second season and a first round exit to the Port Hope Predators that was shortened by bad weather.

Toronto Dixie Beehives / Dixie Beehives 2007–2011
The Toronto Dixie Beehives began play at Weston Arena on September 15 with a game vs. the Vaughan Vipers. The first season saw the team make the playoffs before going down 3 straight to the Markham Waxers in the quarter-final match.

In the summer of 2009, the Beehives relocated from Weston to Etobicoke playing at Canlan Ice Sports Etobicoke and dropped "Toronto" from their name.  On April 3, 2011, the Dixie Beehives officially ceased operations.

AEC Q-type

The AEC Q-type is an AEC-built, side-mounted-engine, single- and double-decker bus that was launched in 1932.

It was designed by G. J. Rackham, an employee of the American firm Yellow Coach from 1922 to 1926. It was on a visit to America in the late 1920s that Rackham noted the success of the 1927 Fageol Twin Coach which had won large sales to American operators. The result was Rackham returned to the AEC works in Southall with the idea of implementing the American practice of side-mounted engines in British bus production.

Design
Although based on the Twin Coach, the Q had many differences compared with it, the most noticeable being whilst the Twin Coach had two engines, hence the name, the AEC Q only had one. This overcame the many complications arising from the need for a second engine.

The London General Omnibus Company received the first Q-type vehicle with a crash gearbox although all subsequent vehicles had the pre-select version. The engine was available in either petrol or diesel versions and was located longitudinally behind the front axle, intended to be hidden by the staircase in the double-decker version. In order to fit in the space, the engine was tilted to one side and the crankshaft rotated anti-clockwise. This allowed the driver's cab to be located on the front overhang with the entrance opposite, even though some body builders didn't use this facility and had a centre entrance. Its modern full-frontal design made it look very similar to buses built in the 1950s and 1960s.

History
The Q failed to attract the attention of the British operators and failed to find a market in the UK, unlike Fageol in the US. One of the reasons was the Q's susceptibility to problems, the most worrying being that the carburettors on the petrol-engined models caught fire. The recommended solution was just as worrying ... increasing the revs until the fire went out! However, the vehicle was just too revolutionary for the conservative-minded bus industry, with the result was that the Q did not obtain the popularity of the other AEC models, so the project was dropped, last appearing in the 1937 catalogue.

However, London Transport did find the single-deck model useful for its needs and, accordingly, bought over 200 of the diesel-engined version as its first standard bus for Country Bus services. They had centre entrances with sliding passenger doors fitted. They led full service lives.

One version that was an oddity was the AEC 761T trolleybus version, of which only five were built.

Cameron Dokey

Cameron Dokey (born 1956) is an American author. She lives in Seattle, Washington with her three cats and her husband.
Cameron was born in the Central Valley of California.  Her father was a teacher of Philosophy, Creative Writing, and Western Literature, and perhaps for this reason, Cameron grew up reading classical literature and mythology. Both Cameron's parents are authors. Her mother's work is less well-known than that of her father. Cameron's grandmother, Mabel, was a singer on the radio in the early decades of the 20th century.

Cameron studied Archaeology at Sonoma State University just prior to extending her high school career as an actress by acting for several years at the Oregon Shakespeare Festival, in Ashland, Oregon. Cameron then moved to Seattle, where she continued acting at several locations including the Seattle Rep.  It was in Seattle that Cameron met her husband, Jim Verdery.

After several years of acting and working in different capacities, Cameron has settled into writing.

Niccolò Alamanni

Niccolò Alamanni (Ancona, 12 January 1583 – Rome, 1626) was a Roman antiquarian of Greek origin. He was educated in Rome at the Greek College, founded by Gregory XIII, but was ordained deacon and priest according to the Latin rite. 

After teaching Greek for some time to persons of rank, he was appointed secretary to Cardinal Borghese, and afterwards made custodian of the Vatican Library. His death is said to have been caused by too close attendance at the erection of the high altar of St. Peter's, to which honorable duty he had been assigned with orders to see that the sepulchres of the holy martyrs were not interfered with in the course of the work. 

He wrote a Syntagma de Lateranensibus parietibus (Rome, 1625) on the occasion of restorations carried out in the church of St. John Lateran by his patron, Cardinal Borghese; also a dissertation on the relative importance of the right and left side as exhibited in certain old papal coins that place St. Paul to the right of St. Peter, De dextrae laevaeque manus praerogativa ex antiquis Pontificum nummis Paulum Petro apostolo anteponentibus. He is known in the history of classical literature as the editor (Lyon, 1623) of the famous Anecdota, or Secret History, of Procopius, a work that was violently criticized outside of Italy.

Peterborough Stars

The Peterborough Stars were a Junior "A" ice hockey team from Peterborough, Ontario, Canada. They played in the Ontario Junior Hockey League. All players from Peterborough that remain junior eligible will have their player cards sent to the Lindsay Muskies as the Stars merged into the Lindsay Muskies.

History
The franchise started in the Ontario Hockey Association's Eastern Junior B Hockey League in 1960 and ended in 2012 when the Stars folded and merged into the Lindsay Muskies.

The Peterborough Lions competed in the 1970 Ontario Winter Games.  The Games were meant to represent all four major regions of Jr. B hockey in Ontario.  The Lions were crowned Ontario Jr. B Grand Champions by defeating the Toronto Nationals, Chapleau Huskies, Brockville Tikis, St. Marys Lincolns, Owen Sound Greys, St. Catharines Falcons, and the Petrolia Jets 7-1 in the Gold Medal Game.

In 1972, all Ontario junior hockey experienced a reshuffle and the Lions found themselves in the Metro Junior "B" League. The Lions took a 3-year hiatus from 1975 to 1978, returning as the Hall Oil Lumber Kings. Renamed the Roadrunners in 1984, the team went a record 37 games without a win during the 1987-88 season (and 44 games overall going into the 1988-89 season, which ended on October 31, 1988). The franchise stayed with the Metro until it went renegade and left the Ontario Hockey Association in 1989. In 1989, the Peterborough Roadrunners jumped to the Central Junior "B" league, which became the Ontario Provincial Junior A Hockey League in 1993. The Stars were known as the Peterborough Bees from 1997 until 2005. They became the Stars in 2005. They are affiliated with the Peterborough Petes of the Ontario Hockey League.

After over half of a century of hockey, the Stars shutdown operation by merging with the Lindsay Muskies in the Spring of 2012.

Trenton Sting

The Trenton Sting were a Junior "A" ice hockey team from Trenton, Ontario, Canada.  They were a part of the Ontario Junior Hockey League.

History
In 1981, the Belleville Bobcats of the Metro Junior B Hockey League moved to Trenton.  In 1987, the Bobcats moved back to Belleville, but Trenton was granted a Junior C franchise in the Central Ontario Junior C Hockey League.

In 1989, the team moved over to the Eastern Ontario Junior C Hockey League that season, in which they stayed until 1995.  In 1995, the ownership of the team was granted the rights to a Junior "A" team, and renamed the Sting.

To fill the void in the Junior "C" loop, the Sting created a farm team known as the Brighton Buzz.  After two seasons, the Buzz became the Colborne Blackhawks.  Two seasons later, the team folded.

The Sting were sold to a private group and changed their name to the Quinte West Pack.  After the name change, the Pack played the franchises' worst season since 1996-97.  On April 10, 2008, the franchise was renamed the Trenton Hercs.

Effective noon January 8, 2009, the Trenton Hercs folded for the remainder of the 2008-09 season.  After 37 games, the Hercs record was 14 wins, 20 losses, and 3 overtime losses.  It was confirmed shortly after that the franchise is officially defunct.

Season-by-season results

Farm Team
  
When the Sting jumped from Junior C to Junior A, they formed a team in the area as a feeder, this team quickly fizzled out in four years.

Alan of Walsingham

Alan of Walsingham (died c. 1364), also known as Alan de Walsingham, was an English architect, first heard of in 1314 as a junior monk at Ely, distinguished by his skill in goldsmith's work, and for his acquaintance with the principles of mechanics.

He afterwards turned his attention to the study of architecture, and in 1321, when sub-prior of his convent, designed and began to build St Mary's Chapel (now Trinity Church), attached to the cathedral of Ely. 
At the same time he was engaged in the erection of Prior Crauden's Chapel, the new sacristy, and many minor works. In December 1321, he was elected sacristan, with sole charge of the fabric of the cathedral.

Early on the morning of 13 February 1322, the great tower of the Ely Cathedral fell, and destroyed the choir and other attached portions of the structure.
Instead of rebuilding the four piers, which carried the Norman (square) tower, a weak point in cathedral construction, Alan advanced the supports, to the extent of one bay, into each arm of the cross; and by so doing he not only distributed the weight upon eight piers instead of four, but obtained a magnificent central octagonal hall, which he roofed with a dome surmounted by a tall lantern. 
The result was not only very beautiful, but also very original. It is almost certain that Alan never travelled beyond the limits of his convent, and that he was not acquainted, except perhaps from hearsay, with the domed Churches of the East, whose principles of construction, moreover, differ essentially from those employed by Alan. 
His work remains to this day unique among the cathedrals of Europe. He subsequently rebuilt the bays of the choir, which had been ruined by the fall of the great tower, and these are admittedly amongst the most beautiful examples of Decorated, or Second Pointed, English Gothic architecture.

In 1341, Alan of Walsingham was elected Prior of Ely, and in 1344 to the bishopric of Ely, rendered vacant by the death of Simon de Montacute. 
When he thus became bishop-elect, the works connected with the fabric of the cathedral had been conducted to a successful termination, leaving for his successor only the decorations and fittings.

His election, however, was set aside by the Pope in favour of Thomas L'Isle, a Dominican friar, who was at Avignon with the Pope at the time. A similar honor was destined for Alan in 1361, but the choice of the convent was again overruled, and Simon Langham, afterwards Archbishop of Canterbury and Cardinal, was consecrated Bishop of Ely in his stead. The possessions of the convent were said to have increased under his administration.

Shades of God

Shades of God is the third studio album by British metal band Paradise Lost, released in 1992. It retains the heavy instrumentation and growled vocals characteristic of the band's previous death-doom efforts, and also shows the beginning of the band's transition to a more melodic, gothic metal sound heard on the follow-up album Icon.

Fifteenth Council of Toledo

The Fifteenth Council of Toledo first met in Toledo, Spain on 11 May 688 under Visigothic King Egica. It was the first of his three councils.

In 680-681, the sixth ecumenical council, the Third Council of Constantinople, had repudiated monothelitism and affirmed the doctrine of dyothelitism, that Christ had two wills. The decision of the council had been sent to Quiricus, metropolitan of Toledo, who died before it reached him, and ended up in the hands of his successor Julian. The response of the Spanish bishops to Pope Benedict II's letter was not to the pope's liking, especially the phrase voluntas genuit voluntatem, meaning "will engendered will". Nevertheless, Julian defended his propositions and it was the Fifteenth Council which adopted them. It has been theorised by some that a schism with the church of Rome was imminent, but diverted by political events in both Spain and Italy, such as the Moorish invasion of 711. This view, however, is not generally accepted.

Egica, besides the affirmation of Julian's theology, had a second reason to call the council. He had been obliged by his predecessor, Erwig, to take two oaths before assuming the kingship. First, he was forced to swear never to harm Erwig's children when Erwig gave him his daughter in marriage.  Second, he was forced, on Erwig's deathbed, to vow to uphold justice for the people. Egica claimed that, on account of Erwig's injustices, he could not protect his children if he wanted to do justice to the people. It is usually presumed that Erwig had unjustly confiscated property and this was in the hands of his children. Therefore, Egica would have to take back that property to return it to its rightful possessors. He wished the protection of Erwig's children to be removed from his hands. The bishops ordered him to love his in-laws, but released him from his oath. He wished them also to reverse the Thirteenth Council's canon protecting Erwig's family, but the bishops refused, saying that that canon did not protect them from just penalties.

Georgetown Raiders

The Georgetown Raiders are a Junior "A" ice hockey team from Georgetown, Ontario, Canada.  They are a part of the Ontario Junior A Hockey League.  The team began play in the Central Ontario Jr. B league and was known as the "Georgetown Gemini" until 1988.  The Raiders won the 2005 Dudley Hewitt Cup.

History
The Georgetown Gemini were founded in 1975 as members of the Central Junior B Hockey League.  They were the first junior club in Georgetown since the Jr. C Raiders folded in 1969.

The name "Georgetown Raiders" used to belong to a different team that competed in OHA Senior A and Intermediate A ranks in the 1970s and 1980s. The two clubs are not known to be connected.

At the 2006 OPJHL Showcase Tournament, the Raiders showed the host team Newmarket Hurricanes why they have been considered a top tier OPJHL team in recent years.  They started out the tournament with a close 5–3 win against the Seguin Bruins.  Their second game saw them manhandle the Atlantic Junior Hockey League's Tier III Junior "A" New York Bobcats by a score of 7–2.  They closed out the round robin with a 4–4 tie against the Atlantic league's New Jersey Rockets.  In the quarter-finals, the Raiders found themselves deadlocked with the Eastern Junior Hockey League's Tier III Junior "A" Capital District Selects at the end of regulation.  They blew a 3-goal lead in the third period, but were saved at 6:46 of double overtime by Rob Sgarbossa.  Final score: 6-5 2OT.  The semi-final was much the same story.  Again against the New York Bobcats, the Raiders actually found themselves down by the midpoint of the third period.  They tied up the game with around 6 minutes to go and forced overtime.  With 6:01 left in triple overtime, Ryan Ford earned the Raiders a birth into the finals.  Final score: 5-4 3OT.  The final was a high scoring affair, ending with the Raiders defeating the host Newmarket Hurricanes by a score of 7–5.

Markham Royals

The Markham Royals are a Junior "A" ice hockey team from Markham, Ontario, Canada.  They are a part of the Ontario Junior Hockey League.  From 1973 until 2015, the team operated in Hamilton, Ontario as the Kilty's and the Red Wings.

History

Hamilton Red Wings/Kilty B's 1973-2015
The Red Wings were founded in 1973 as the second Hamilton-based team in the Niagara District Junior B Hockey League.

After one season, the league divided into two leagues and the Red Wings went the way of the Golden Horseshoe Junior Hockey League.  In 1975-76, the other Hamilton team joined the Southern Ontario Junior A Hockey League and became the Hamilton Mountain A's.  The draw of a local Junior A club weakened the team and they took a one-year leave a season later.

In 1977, under new ownership the team came back as the Kiltys.  Although a very competitive team, it took the Kiltys until 1992-93 to win a Golden Horseshoe championship.  With that win, the Kiltys were promoted to the newly formed Ontario Provincial Junior A Hockey League with a variety of other Junior B squads.

Outside of some brief troubles in the late 1990s, the Hamilton franchise has been very successful in regular season play in the OJHL.  The team was renamed the Hamilton Red Wings in 2002 and continues to field highly competitive teams season after season.

Markham Royals 2015-present
In the spring of 2015, the Red Wings moved to Markham, Ontario and became the Markham Royals. Markham had been without an OJHL franchise since 2012. The club also acquired the rights for Waxers Junior A, and has chosen to play as the Markham Royals.

Neutron backscattering

Neutron backscattering is one of several inelastic neutron scattering techniques. Backscattering from monochromator and analyzer crystals is used to achieve an energy resolution in the order of μeV. Neutron backscattering experiments are performed to study atomic or molecular motion on a nanosecond time scale.

History 

Neutron backscattering was proposed by Heinz Maier-Leibnitz in 1966, and realized by some of his students in a test setup at the research reactor FRM I in Garching bei München, Germany. Following this successful demonstration of principle, permanent spectrometers were built at Forschungszentrum Jülich and at the Institut Laue-Langevin (ILL). Later instruments brought an extension of the accessible momentum transfer range (IN13 at ILL), the introduction of focussing optics (IN16 at ILL), and a further increase of intensity by a compact design with a phase-space transform chopper (HFBS at NIST, SPHERES at FRM II, IN16B at the Institut Laue-Langevin).

Backscattering spectrometers 
Operational backscattering spectrometers at reactors include IN10, IN13, and IN16B at the Institut Laue-Langevin, the High Flux Backscattering Spectrometer (HFBS) at the NIST Center for Neutron Research, 
the SPHERES] instrument of Forschungszentrum Jülich at FRM II
and EMU at ANSTO.

Inverse geometry spectrometers
Inverse geometry spectrometers at spallation sources include IRIS and OSIRIS at the ISIS neutron source at Rutherford-Appleton, BASIS at the Spallation Neutron Source, and MARS at the Paul Scherrer Institute

Historic instruments
Historic instruments are the first backscattering spectrometer that was a temporary setup at FRM I 
and the backscattering spectrometer BSS (also called PI) at the DIDO reactor of the Forschungszentrum Jülich (decommissioned).

Falls City Handicap

The Falls City Handicap is a Thoroughbred horse race run annually near the end of November at Churchill Downs in Louisville, Kentucky. A Grade II event, the race is open to fillies and mares, age three and up, willing to race one and one-eighth miles on the dirt. It was run in two divisions in 1968, 1969, 1971, 1972, 1973, 1982 and 1985.

When the  graded stakes race system was implemented in the United States in 1973, the Falls City Handicap was awarded Grade 3 status. Reviewed annually, in 2002 it was upgraded to a Grade 2 level.

Mississauga Chargers

The Mississauga Chargers are a Junior "A" ice hockey team from Mississauga, Ontario, Canada.  They are a part of the Ontario Junior A Hockey League.  They are the product of a 1990 merger of two former Metro Junior B franchises, the Thornhill Thunderbirds and the Markham Connection.  After the 1990 merger the team spent one year in Markham known as the Markham Thunderbirds, and in 1991 they returned to their Thornhill Thunderbirds name for one season.  In 1992, the team moved to Mississauga.  As a member of the Metro Junior A Hockey League they participated for 3 seasons.  They left for the OPJHL in 1995. They have had a glim past few years, but in the 2007–08 season they saw a rare light when team captain Bruce Crawford lead the entire OPJHL in scoring (41-57-98).

History

Richmond Hill/Thornhill franchise
This franchise had begun in 1981 as the Weston Dukes, becoming the King City Dukes in 1984, and becoming the Richmond Hill Dukes in 1987 for one season.  The team moved to Thornill in 1988, and was named the Thunderbirds for two seasons before the merger.

Markham Travelways/Connection franchise
In 1983 the North York Flames moved to Markham, and were named as the Travelways.  In 1989 they were renamed the Markham Connection after the Travelways bus sponsor was sold.
