Schaerbeek
Schaerbeek (obsolete Dutch spellin, retained in French, pronoonced ) or Schaarbeek (Dutch, prononced ) is ane o the nineteen municipalities locatit in the Brussels-Caipital Region o Belgium. The first mention o the name wis Scarenbecca, recordit in a document frae the Bishop o Cambrai in 1120. The oreegin o the name mey come frae the Franconian (Auld Dutch) wirds schaer (notch, score) an beek (creek).
Schaerbeek is nicknamed "the ceety o donkeys" (la cité des ânes or de ezelsgemeente). This name is reminiscent o times when fowk o Schaerbeek, who wur cultivators o sour cherries primarily for Kriek production, wad arrive at the Brussels merketplace wi donkeys laden wi sour cherries.
"Dountoun Schaerbeek" is home tae a lairge Turkis immigrant community, a significant pairt o which oreeginates frae Afyon/Emirdağ, Turkey. It is an aa hame tae a lairge Moroccan population an ither immigrant communities.
"Uptoun Schaerbeek" is nouadays a location selectit bi EU- an affluent fowk for its airchitectur an its convenient location (close tae the EU an financial hert o the ceety, the airport an heich-gates). Young couples are an aa favourin this suburb for its "Notting Hill" atmosphere an the still reasonable pricin o the estate, while prices are on the surge iverywhaur else in Brussels.
Antiquity an Middle Ages
The period at which human activity stairtit in Schaerbeek can be inferred frae the Stane Age flint tools that wur recovered in the Josaphat valley. Tombs an coins datin frae the reign o Hadrian (2nt century) wur an aa foond near the auld Roman roads that crossed Schaerbeek’s territory.
The first mention o the toun’s name appears in a legal document datit 1120, whaurbi the bishop o Cambrai grantit the admeenistration o the kirks o Scarenbecca an Everna (the day’s neighbourin Evere) tae the canons of Soignies. Poleetically, the toun wis pairt o the Duchy o Brabant. In 1301, John II, Duke o Brabant haed the toun admeenistered bi the schepen (aldermen) o Brussels. A new kirk tae Saunt Servatius wis built aroond that same time, at the same location as the auld kirk.
At the end o the 14t century, the Schaerbeek lands that belanged tae the Lairds o Kraainem wur sauld an reconvertit intae a huntin grund. The offeecial entry o the visitin Dukes o Burgundy intae Brussels, their seicont caipital, wis an aa through Schaerbeek, whaur they had tae swear tae uphauld the ceety’s privileges. The game reservation an the rural chearacter o the veelage lastit till the end o the 18t century. The auries no covered bi woods wur uised tae cultivate vegetables an grow vines. In 1540, Schaerbeek coontit 112 hooses an 600 inhabitants.
16t century till nou
Up till then, the veelage haed lived in relative peace. This wad chynge in the middle o the 16t century as the Reformation set in. Schaerbeek suffered through ravages an destructions aboot a dozen times ower the follaein twa centuries, stairtin in the 1570s wi William the Silent's mercenary troops fechtin the Catholic Duke o Alba.
Spainyie, French, Breetish, an Bavarian troops aw came through Schaerbeek, wi the uisual exactions an requisitions inflictit on the population.
Efter the French Revolution, it wis decreed that Schaerbeek wad be taken away frae Brussels and proclaimed an independent commune, wi its awn mayor, schepen, an municipal assembly.
On September 27, 1830, durin the Belgian Revolution, some fechtin occurred in the Josaphat valley atween the revolutionary troops an the retreatin Dutch troops.
In 1879, a mair modren Saunt Servatius kirk wis built near the auld ane, which wis eventually demolished in 1905. The toun haw an Schaerbeek railway station wur built in 1887 an 1902, respectively.
At the end o the 19t an in the early 20t centuries, Schaerbeek became hame tae the gentry haein there a "pied-à-terre". They rapidly settled an erectit bonnie biggin an hooses.
In 1889 the shootin range kent as Tir national wis established at Schaerbeek. It wis there that the Breetish nurse Edith Cavell wis executit bi an occupyin German Airmy firin squad in 1915.
Dwight D. Eisenhower came tae visit the ceety at the close o Warld War II. Five years later, the population o Schaerbeek peaked at 125,000 inhabitants.
Nouadays, the ceety is govrened bi a richtist-ecologist majority, efter a disputit run atween Bernard Clerfayt (FDF) an Laurette Onkelinx (PS).

Ford GT90
The Ford GT90 wis a concept caur manufactured bi the Ford Motor Company. It wis unveiled in Januar 1995 at the Detroit Auto Show as "the warld's mightiest supercaur". Claimed performance includit a tap speed 235 mph (378 km/h) frae a 720 hp (537 kW;730 PS) quad-turbochairged V12 ingine DOHC, the exhaust o which wis claimed tae be het enough tae damage the body panels, requirin ceramic tiles seemilar tae those on the space shuttle tae prevent this.
The mid-ingined caur wis a spiritual successor tae the Ford GT40, takin frae it some stylin cues, sic as doors that cut intae the roofline, but little else. Aw angles an gless, the Ford GT90 wis the first Ford tae display the company's "New Edge" design philosophy. The GT90 wis biggit aroond a honeycomb-section aluminum monocoque an its body panels war moulded frae carbon fiber.
The GT90 wis biggit bi a smaw team in juist ower sax month an, as a result, borrowed mony components frae anither hie profile stablemate—the Jaguar XJ220. The aw-roond double wishbone suspension an the five-speed manual gearbox came frae the Jaguar, while the ingine wis a siamesed 4.6L DOHC V8 block (frae the Lincoln Mark VIII) wi 2 cylinders cut aff.
The GT90's 48-valve V12 wis a sax-litre ingine which, if Ford haed iver produced it in volume, might hae produced up tae 720 hp (537 kW), thanks tae fower Garrett AiResearch T2 turbochairgers. The ingine wis based on the Ford Modular ingine. Twa Lincoln V8 ingines each haed portions removed, namely the last pair o cylinders frae the rear o ane ingine an the first pair o cylinders frae the front o the ither ingine an the cut doun ingines wur weldit thegither. In tot, this yieldit a 90-degree V12, wi 90.2 mm bore an 77.3 mm stroke.
Jacques Nasser, then a Ford executive an eventually CEO, wis vera proud o the caur, an kept a model o it on his desk, as seen in a documentary on the U.K. telly netwirk Channel 4 on the Firestone tire incidents.
In the Top Gear episode first broadcast on October 26, 2003, Jeremy Clarkson statit "I actually drove this an it wis horrid. It haed a top speed o 40 (mph) an it handled like it wis in a cartoon".

Devourment
Devourment is an American daith metal baund frae Dallas, Texas. Formit in 1995, the baund haes split up an reformed three times nane o the oreeginal members remain. The current lineup is Mike Majewski, Ruben Rosas, Chris Andrews an Eric Pairk. The baund is currently signed tae Relapse Records, an wur previously signed tae Brutal Bands, United Guttural an Corpse Gristle Records. Devourment haes haed albums re-released bi ither labels an aw.
Formation an early history
Devourment wis formit in 1995 on the breakup o Dallas daith metal baund Necrocide. Necrocide's drummer, Brad Fincher, an guitarist, Braxton Henry, met up wi umwhile Meatus vocalist Wayne Knupp tae play brutal daith metal. Housomeivver, the newly-formit baund achievit little—Knupp muivit back tae his hametoun o Chicago, an Fincher muivit tae San Antonio for educational raisons. Months later, whan the twa o thaim haed muivit back tae Dallas, Henry haed formit his awn baund—Dead Industry. Knupp got in contact wi someone he haed kent years earlier, Brian "Brain" Wynn, an thay reformit the baund. This lineup is aften citit as the 'oreeginal'. The baund then developit thair first promo, featurin twa sangs, "Shroud of Encryption" an "Festering Vomitous Mass", which wis producit bi umwhile an futur guitarist Braxton Henry.
Ower the next few months, Kevin Clark (umwhile o Sintury) jynt the baund as a seicontar guitarist, an Mike Majewski jynt on bass. Majewski haed previously wirkit publicisin the baund an providin airtwirk. He haed first seen Devourment whan thair anerlie sang wis "Shroud of Encryption". The baund recordit "Choking on Bile" which thay addit tae thair oreeginal demo. This wis released in 1997 bi Corpse Gristle Records unner the name o Impaled. Knupp later left the baund "due tae some internal problems". He wis replacit bi Ruben Rosas, who played guitars an providit vocals in a local baund cried Detrimental.
Molesting the Decapitated
In 1999, Devourment signed a record deal wi United Guttural an stairtit developin thair first album, Molesting the Decapitated, again producit bi Braxton. The album wis released later that year. Reviews wur positive, wi Blas, o Global Domination, who praised the album for bein sae brutal, claimin that "if you leuk up the wird “Brutal” in the dictionar richt nou, you'd see Devourment's logo richt next tae the definition". He praised the vocals, but said that the drums, in places, let the album doun due tae thaim bein too fast, accordin tae him. Dan Staige, o Metal Review, said that the instruments wur "remarkably balancit an crisp", an his anerlie criticism wis that the "ultra hivy breakdouns" "may sound a little monotonous", but that "you will still bang your heid".
The baund haed a release show for the album in Colorado. Awtho Majewski claimit that this wis in 1998, the album wis apparently released in 1999, sae he wis probably mistaken. This show wis alangside Macabre an Cephalic Carnage, amang ithers. Shortly efterwairds, Rosas wis arrestit an jailed for twa an a hauf years, meanin the baund went thair separate weys. Rosas' arrest wis describit bi Majewski as the "last straw", as the baund wis becomin mair an mair business-lik, wi Wynn an his wife arrangin concerts athoot consultin the rest o the baund.
