Patience; or, Bunthorne's Bride is a two-act operetta by Gilbert and Sullivan.
It was first performed at the Opera Comique in London, on 23 April 1881.
On 10 October 1881, it moved to the Savoy Opera, a new theatre built especially for the Gilbert and Sullivan operettas.
It was the first theatre to be lit entirely by electricity.
Patience was the sixth of the fourteen operettas written by Gilbert and Sullivan.
It ran for 578 performances.
The operetta is a satire on the mores and extravangas of the aesthetic poets of the 1870s and 1880s.
Patience was a great success.
Gilbert originally planned to use his Bab ballad, "The Rival Curates", as the basis for Patience, but had second thoughts about two clergymen in a comedy and turned to the poets of the aesthetic movement instead.
D'Oyly Carte sent Oscar Wilde on a lecture tour in the United States to prepare Americans for the background of the operetta.

Eternal Silence is a monument in Chicago's Graceland Cemetery.
It is also known as the Dexter Graves Monument or the Statue of Death.
The statue is a bronze sculpture set on and backdropped by black granite.
It was created by American sculptor Lorado Taft in 1909.
Eternal Silence is a monument in Graceland Cemetery to Dexter Graves.
Graves led a group of thirteen families who moved to Chicago from Ohio in 1831.
He died in 1844, and the monument was created by sculptor Lorado Taft in 1909.
Taft's son, Henry Graves, asked him to create it.
In Ada Bartlett Taft's 1946 Lorado Taft; Sculptor and Citizen, it was listed as one of his most important works.
Images of Eternal Silence have been used in other artworks, including works by Claes Oldenburg.
One folktale claims that if someone looks into the eyes of Eternal Silences hooded figure, the viewer would be shown his or her own death.

In theatre, blocking is the exact positioning of actors on a stage during a performance.
The word comes from practices used by theatre directors of the 19th century, who worked out the staging of a scene on a model stage using wooden blocks to represent each of the actors.
Today, the director usually determines blocking during rehearsal.
They tell the actors where they should move for the proper dramatic and lighting effect, and to ensure that the audience can see everything.
The back of the stage is considered up-stage.
The front of the stage is down-stage.
Stage left and right refer to the actor's left and right facing the audience.
Because this is sometimes misunderstood, the terms prompt (actor's or stage left) and bastard/opposite prompt (actor's or stage right) are also used.
House left and house right refer to how the audience sees the stage.
The audience's left is called house left, and the audience's right is called house right.

A secret society is an organisation run in secrecy.
There would be little or no physical evidence to prove that the society exists.
An example of a large secret society is the Illuminati, which stopped existing in 1785 but is believed by some to still exist and be in control of large businesses, banks and individuals, but there is no evidence of this.

Animalia Paradoxa is the label given to a few species of animal, listed in Carolus Linnaeus early editions of Systema Naturae.
Linné thought that these animals did not make sense.
Today, such animals are usually called Cryptids.
The respective section lists fantastic creatures found in medieval bestiaries as well as those reported by explorers from abroad and gives explanations to why they are excluded from Systema Naturae.
According to Swedish historian Gunnar Broberg, it was to offer a natural explanation and demystify the world of superstition.
Paradoxa was dropped from Linnaeus' classification system as of the 6th edition (1748).
Cryptic creatures
Hydra: in 1735 Linnaeus inspected the alleged remains of a Hydra in Hamburg which turned out to be made from weasels and snake skins.
Rana-Piscis: a South American frog which is significantly smaller than its tadpole stage; it was thus (incorrectly) reported to Linnaeus that the metamorphosis in this species went from 'frog to fish'.
In the 10th edition of Systema Naturae, Linnaeus named the species Rana paradoxa, though its genus name was changed in 1830 to Pseudis.
Monoceros is in reality Monodon.
Pelecanus: "Linnaeus thought [pelicans] might reflect the over-fervent imaginations of New World explorers"
Satyrus: Linnaeus wrote "with a tail, hairy, bearded, with a manlike body, gesticulating much, very fallacious, is a species of monkey, if ever one has been seen."
Borometz (aka Scythian Lamb) "Linnaeus [...] had seen a faked vegetable lamb taken from China to Sweden by a traveler"
Bernicla (aka Scottish Goose) Frederick Edward Hulme noted: "[The] barnacle-goose tree was a great article of faith with our ancestors in the Middle Ages."
Draco: Linnaeus wrote that it has a "snakelike body, two feet, two wings, like a bat, which is a Lacerta alata or a ray artificially shaped as a monster and dried."
Automa Mortis Linnaeus wrote "The DEATH-WATCH produces the sound of a smaller clock in walls, is named Pediculus pulsatorius, which perforates wood and lives in it".

Wood carving is a form of working wood by means of a cutting tool.
A chisel or knife are usual tools: the chisel can be tapped with a wooden mallet.
The result is a wooden figure, or the sculptural ornamentation of a wooden object.
A 'wood carving' may also refer to the finished product.
The making of sculpture in wood has a long history.
Wood survives much less well than the other materials such as stone and bronze.
It is vulnerable to decay, insect damage, and fire.
Therefore, we do not know much about wood in the art history of older cultures.
Outdoor wood sculptures do not last long in most parts of the world, so that we have little idea how the totem pole tradition developed.
Many of the most important sculptures of China and Japan are in wood, also most African sculpture and that of Oceania and other regions.
Wood is light, so it is suitable for masks and other objects meant to be carried.
It can take very fine detail, and is also much easier to work than stone.
Some of the finest examples of early European wood carving are from the Middle Ages in Germany, Russia, Italy and France, where the typical themes of that era were used in Christian icons.
In England many complete examples remain from the 16th and 17th century, when oak was often used.
In general, really fine carving is done in fruitwood (wood of a fruit tree) because that is easy to work with.
The famous woodcarver Grinling Gibbons used to work with lime wood.
Complex pieces are often carved in separate sections which are later stuck together.
Barbara Joyce Dainton (née West; May 24, 1911 – October 16, 2007) was the second-to-last remaining survivor of the sinking of the RMS Titanic.
She was the last living survivor who had travelled under second class on the ship.
West was born in Bournemouth, England.
She died at age 96 in Truro, Cornwall.
Systema Naturae (sometimes written ) is the main work of Carolus Linnaeus, where he listed and classified the known species of plants, animals, and minerals.
The first edition was only made of seven sheets of folio.
Kathleen Walsh (or Kay Walsh; August 27, 1911 – April 16, 2005) was an English actress and dancer.
She started in West End music halls.
Her first movie role was in 1934 in How's Chances?.
She had a larger role in Get Your Man, also in 1934.
She later moved to higher-prestige movies, including In Which We Serve and This Happy Breed.
Walsh was born in London, England.
She died from being burned in an accident at the age of 93.
Grinling Gibbons (4 April 1648 – 3 August 1721) was an AngloDutch sculptor and wood carver.
He was famous for his work in England, including St Paul's Cathedral, Blenheim Palace and Hampton Court Palace.
He is widely regarded as the finest wood carver working in England, and the only one whose name is widely known among the general public.
Most of his work is in lime (tilia) wood, especially decorative Baroque garlands made up of still-life elements at about life size.
They are made to frame mirrors and decorate the walls of churches and palaces.
He also produced furniture and small relief plaques with figurative scenes.
He also worked in stone, mostly for churches.
By the time he was established he led quite a large workshop.
About 1667 he moved to Deptford, now in London, and by 1693 had got commissions from the royal family.
By 1680 he was known as the "King's Carver", and carried out exquisite work for St Paul's Cathedral and Windsor Castle.
His carving was so fine that it was said a pot of carved flowers above his house in London would tremble from the motion of passing coaches.
The diarist John Evelyn first discovered Gibbons' talent by chance in 1671.
Evelyn, from whom Gibbons rented a cottage near Evelyn's home in Deptford, wrote: "I saw the young man at his carving, by the light of a candle.
I saw him to be engaged on a carved representation of Tintoretto's "Crucifixion", which he had in a frame of his own making".
Later that same evening, Evelyn described what he had seen to Sir Christopher Wren.
Wren and Evelyn then introduced him to King Charles II who gave him his first commission.
It is still in the dining room of Windsor Castle.
A myth states that he would include a closed pod in his work, only carving it open once he had been paid.
If the pea pod was left shut it supposedly showed that he had not been paid for the work.

The forest is in the Flemish parts of Sint-Genesius-Rode, Hoeilaart, Overijse and Tervuren, Uccle , Watermael-Boitsfort, Auderghem and Woluwe-Saint-Pierre in the Brussels-Capitale Region and in the Walloon towns of La Hulpe and Waterloo.
Thus it stretches out over the three Belgian Regions.
It used to be connected with Bois de la Cambre and Hallerbos (Blue Forest in Belgium) but they split up in 1900.
It is maintained by Flanders (56%), the Brussels-Capitale Region (38%) and Wallonia (6%).
There are some parts of the forest privately held forest and the Kapucijnenbos, the "Capuchin Wood", which belongs to the Royal Trust.
Auguste Rodin went to the forest while living in Brussels in the 1870s.
He made several paintings of the forest during this time.

Gram-negative bacteria are bacteria that do not retain crystal violet dye in staining.
In a Gram stain test, a counterstain, safranin, is added after the crystal violet.
This colours all gram-negative bacteria with a red or pink colour.
This happens because an outer membrane stops the penetration of the stain.
The test itself is useful in classifying two distinct types of bacteria based on the structural differences of their bacterial cell walls.
Gram-positive bacteria retain the crystal violet dye when washed in a decolourizing solution.
Compared with gram-positive bacteria, gram-negative bacteria are more resistant against antibiotics, because of their relatively impermeable cell wall.
The lipopolysaccharide layer (LPS layer) is important.
In humans, LPS triggers an innate immune response, with cytokine production and immune system activation.
Inflammation is a common result of cytokine production.

Kalmar is a town on the coast of Småland in south-eastern Sweden.
Kalmar is the central city of Kalmar Municipality, the seat of Kalmar County and the former diocese of Kalmar diocese (which became part of Växjö diocese in 1915).
Kalmar got a college in 1977 and a university city in 2010.
Kalmar's central city had 41 388 inhabitants in 2020.
Kalmar is Småland's third largest urban centre after Jönköping and Växjö.
The Old Swedish place name Kalmarnir or Kalmarnar contains the joint kalm, 'stone cairn' and the plural form arnar of arin, 'gravel island'.
The name may have referred at the earliest to the area of Stensö (Stone Island) just south of the town.
Kalmar had a large German population in the Middle Ages and possibly influenced by the name of the German town Wismar (from the high german wisa and mara, both meaning 'swamp') a reduction of the suffix may have taken place.
An older piece evidence than the one mentioned is Kalmarna sutuma, 'Kalmarsund' on a rune stone from the 11th century at Ärja ödekyrka in Åkers sn.
The name Calmar had long had the genitive form Calmare.
Even in the so-called Kalmarvisan it is spoken of as "Kalmare town".
A 17th-century ship known from early Swedish emigration history was called Calmare Nyckel, a name that still occurs in various contexts.
In today's Standard Swedish, place names ending in a vowel do not receive the genitive s in established fixed compounds, while place names ending in a consonant do.
The genitive-e in the word Kalmar, which has been removed today, explains why the grammatical form of the name violates this rule.
It is thus "Kalmar län", "Kalmar domkyrka", "Kalmar Slott" and so on, without -s, and respectively "Blekinge län", "Lund domkyrka" and "Ovanåkers kommun", "Wismar town hall".
In more occasional constructions, the word Kalmar has the genitive-s in the usual way, for example "Kalmar's population."
The place name was spelled Calmar from the 13th century until the mid-19th century.
Through initiatives in 1851 by the newspaper "Calmarposten" (published 1795-1819) and especially through the newspaper "Kalmar" founded in 1864 (which was renamed "Kalmar-Kalmar läns tidning" in 1918) and its efforts to modernise, the spelling gradually changed to the present day spelling.
The C spelling (and also the genitive form Calmare) still appears in some company and association names, e.g. Calmar Stadshotell, Calmareboden, Calmare Internationella Skola (CIS).
The Iowian city Calmar got it's name through a kalmar-born swedish immigrant.
The city is connected to the outside world by train (Öresund trains, Kust till Kust and Stångådalsbanan), bus and air (Kalmar Öland Airport).
The Öland Bridge and the connecting roads run through the northern part of the city.
The city is located on the E22 between Malmö and Norrköping and is the start/end point of the Riksväg 25 towards Halmstad and Växjö.
Within the city and the county, urban and rural traffic is operated by Kalmar Läns Trafik.
Sweden's longest bridge, Ölandsbron, runs between Kalmar and Färjestaden on Öland.
Kalmar Öland Airport is Småland's largest airport.
