Garnet Wolseley, 1st Viscount Wolseley
Field Marshal Garnet Joseph Wolseley, 1st Viscount Wolseley (4 June 1833 – 25 March 1913) was an Anglo-Irish officer in the British Army. He became one of the most influential British generals after a series of victories in Canada, West Africa and Egypt, followed by a central role in modernizing the British Army in promoting efficiency.

Wolseley is considered to be one of the most prominent and decorated war heroes of the British Empire during the era of New Imperialism. He served in Burma, the Crimean War, the Indian Mutiny, China, Canada and widely throughout Africa—including his Ashanti campaign (1873–1874) and the Nile Expedition against Mahdist Sudan in 1884–85. Wolseley served as Commander-in-Chief of the Forces from 1895 to 1900. His reputation for efficiency led to the late 19th century English phrase "everything's all Sir Garnet", meaning, "All is in order."
Thane of Calder
Thane of Calder was a title of nobility in the Kingdom of Scotland.

Hugh de Cadella (or Kaledouer) was a French nobleman mentioned in David Hume of Godscroft's "The history of the house of Douglas" who gave influential support to Malcolm III of Scotland and was given lands in Nairn, which were renamed Calder. In 1310 CE, Robert the Bruce granted a charter of land to William, Thane of Calder for a yearly payment of "12 merks". The last Thane of Calder, John, died in 1494, leaving a daughter, Muriel, who surrendered the thaneship to her grandson John Cambell, who formed the Clan Campbell of Cawdor.

Macbeth, in Shakespeare's play of the same name, becomes Thane of Cawdor early in the narrative. Shakespeare's version (and the tradition which came before it) is of extremely dubious historical authenticity. Cawdor Castle was originally named Calder and was first built by  William Calder, 6th Thane of Calder.

David Hume of Godscroft
David Hume or Home of Godscroft (1558–1629) was a Scottish historian and political theorist, poet and controversialist, a major intellectual figure in Jacobean Scotland. It has been said that "Hume marks the culmination of the Scottish humanist tradition."

Confusion is possible with David Hume or Home, Scottish minister at Duras in France, a contemporary: they had quite different views on the union with England.

The current diocese is a suffragan of the Patriarchate of Venice.
Sichuanese garden
The Sichuanese garden or Ba–Shu garden is one of the major regional styles of Chinese garden developed in the Sichuan and Chongqing regions. Most of the Sichuanese gardens are located on Chengdu Plain and were built by the government as public gardens to memorize significant local celebrities, which distinguishes them from those private gardens in East China (e.g. Suzhou) and those imperial gardens in Beijing.

East Lake in Xinfan, Chengdu is one of the only two existing Chinese gardens which were built during the Tang dynasty (618–907).

Chengdu Plain
The Chengdu Plain (Chinese: 成都平原; pinyin: Chéngdū Píngyuán), referred to in Sichuanese as the Western Sichuan Plain (Chinese: 川西坝子; Sichuanese Pinyin: Cuan1xi1 Ba4zi3), is an alluvial plain located in the western part of the Sichuan Basin in southwestern China. Chengdu, the capital of Sichuan, is located at the center of it.

The plain has fertile soil and a favorable climate for rice cultivation, giving it importance in agriculture.

The Chengdu Plain has historically been difficult to reach from the coastal regions of China, leading to it developing its own distinct culture. Only after the beginning of the 20th century, transportation became less inconvenient. In Chinese and Western literature and travel accounts, the plain has long been celebrated for its fertile land, good climate and varying landscape.

Pristimantis ornatissimus
Pristimantis ornatissimus is a species of frog in the family Strabomantidae.
It is endemic to Ecuador.
Its natural habitats are tropical moist lowland forests and moist montane forests, at altitudes of 400–1800 meters.
It lives among bromeliads, Heliconia, and fronds of palms such as Ceroxylon and Wettinia. It can also be found in plantations of banana (Musa paradisiaca) and sugar cane (Saccharum officinarum) that border native forests. It is threatened by habitat loss.

Strabomantidae
The Strabomantidae, sometimes called cloud forest landfrogs, are a family of frogs native to South America. These frogs lack a free-living larval stage and hatch directly into miniature "froglets". This family includes Pristimantis, the most speciose genus of any vertebrate. Based on molecular dating, the Holoadeninae in particular appears to have originated in the Eocene. The Oligocene-Miocene transition was also found to be important to their biogeographical history. However, the lack of Holoadeninae fossils and limited nucleotide data ambiguates the results, by the authors' admission.

Polychrome
Polychrome is the "practice of decorating architectural elements, sculpture, etc., in a variety of colors." The term is used to refer to certain styles of architecture, pottery, or sculpture in multiple colors.

When looking at artworks and architecture from antiquity and the European Middle Ages, people tend to believe that they were monochrome. In reality, the pre-Renaissance past was full of colour, and Greco-Roman sculptures and Gothic cathedrals, that are now white, beige, or grey, were initially painted in a variety of colours. As André Malraux stated: "Athens was never white but her statues, bereft of color, have conditioned the artistic sensibilities of Europe [...] the whole past has reached us colorless." Polychrome was and is a practice not limited only to the Western world. Non-Western artworks, like Chinese temples, Oceanian Uli figures, or Maya ceramic vases, were also decorated with colours.

In 1858 and 1866 he ran for state printer as a Democrat, losing in 1886 to Republican W. McPherson.

He retired from editing newspapers in 1889, and began publishing historical articles, including "An Early Steamboating Era on the Willamette," published in the Oregonian Jan. 15, 1891 and republished decades later in the Oregon Historical Quarterly.

The party has 17 special group caucuses which also each have representation on the State Central Committee.

After Oregon was admitted as a state in 1859, Oregon elected twice as many Democrats as Republicans between 1859 and 1879 in statewide elections. It is currently the dominant party in the state, holding all but one of Oregon's six United States House of Representatives seats, both United States Senate seats, both houses of the Oregon Legislative Assembly, and the office of governor.
