+F & M (an abbreviation of Frau und Mann; German for "Woman and Man") is the second and final studio album by German-Swedish super-duo Lindemann. It was released on 22 November 2019 through Universal Music and Vertigo Berlin. The album was preceded by three singles; "Steh auf", "Ich weiß es nicht" and "Knebel", with "Steh auf" peaking at No. 8 in Germany. Vocalist Till Lindemann reverts to singing in German on this album unlike the group's debut album, Skills in Pills, which he sang entirely in English. ==Promotion and release== In 2018, the duo made music for an adaptation of the play "Hänsel und Gretel" with Till Lindemann also appearing in the play. Most songs performed from the play are confirmed to be on the album, with the exception of "Sauber". It is currently unclear whether it will appear as a B-side in the future. "Ich liebe das Leben" is included on the album under the new title of "Wer weiß das schon". Prior to the announcement of the album, Lindemann released the song "Mathematik", featuring German rapper Haftbefehl, on 18 December 2018, with an accompanying music video. The album was announced on 13 September 2019 alongside the release of the song "Steh auf". A music video for the song, starring the band alongside Swedish actor Peter Stormare, was released on the same day. On 13 October, the band shared a 40-second snippet of the song "Blut" on their YouTube channel. On 18 October, the band shared a third song, "Ich weiß es nicht", along with a remix of the song by American industrial metal band Ministry. On 21 October, they shared a music video for "Ich weiß es nicht", featuring black-and-white computer-generated imagery crafted by artificial intelligence. On 29 October, the band shared a 40-second snippet of the song "Allesfresser" on their YouTube channel. On 1 November, the song "Knebel" was released, along with an accompanying, uncensored music video on www.knebel-video.com. F & M was released through Universal Music and Vertigo Berlin on 22 November 2019 as a download, 12-inch vinyl, and CD, the latter in standard and deluxe editions. The vinyl release features a different cover art from the other editions of the album. The deluxe CD release is designed as a 42-page hardcover book. The vinyl, deluxe CD, and deluxe digital versions of the album all feature two bonus tracks; the original version of "Mathematik" and a Pain version of "Ach so gern". Music videos for "Steh auf" and "Frau & Mann" were released, featuring Peter Stormare. Alec Chillingworth from Stereoboard compared three first tracks to Basshunter music sponsored by Classic FM. ==Track listing== ==Personnel== *Till Lindemann - vocals, arrangements *Peter Tägtgren - all instruments (except tracks 7, 13 and drums), arrangements, producing, engineering, recording, mixing ===Additional personnel=== *Jonas Kjellgren - all instruments (tracks 7, 13), drums *Matt Heafy - acoustic guitar and production on "Steh auf (Trivium remix)" *Clemens Wijers - orchestra additional arrangements *Svante Forsbäck - mastering *Rocket & Wink - artwork *Heilemania - photography *Jens Koch - photography *Matthias Matthies - photography *Boris Schade - legal consultant *Lichte Rechtsanwälte - legal consultant *Birgit Fordyce - management *Stefan Mehnert - management ==Charts== ===Weekly charts=== Chart (2019) Peak position Australian Digital Albums (ARIA) 25 French Albums (SNEP) 38 Lithuanian Albums (AGATA) 98 ===Year-end charts=== Chart (2019) Position Swiss Albums (Schweizer Hitparade) 91 ==Certifications== == Release history == Region Date Format Label Various 22 November 2019 12-inch vinyl Universal CD (standard edition) CD (deluxe edition) ==References== Category:Lindemann (band) albums Category:Albums produced by Peter Tägtgren Category:Vertigo Records albums Category:Universal Records albums
+F & R Shanks was a coachbuilding business which flourished in 19th century central London.The Carriage Association of America accessed 29 October 2017 It began as a partnership of Robert Shanks and Robert How (How's sister married Robert Shanks). Sons of Anne How and Robert Shanks, Frederick Shanks and Robert How Shanks, took over the business in the 1850s. The coachbuilding business was first established, where operations remained until 1905, at Great Queen Street in Lincoln's Inn Fields. Shortly before the end of the 19th century most activities were moved to Parker Street in neighbouring Long Acre where F & R Shanks manufactured motor car bodies. There was a showroom at 30 New Bond Street. The business closed in 1917.Shanks Family accessed 29 October 2917 See also Shanks & Bolin, Magasin Anglais ==References== Shanks Category:Vehicle manufacture in London Category:Manufacturing companies established in 1815 Category:Manufacturing companies disestablished in 1917 Category:1815 establishments in England Category:British companies established in 1815 Category:1917 disestablishments in England Category:British companies disestablished in 1917
+F was a streetcar line in Los Angeles, California. It was operated by the Los Angeles Railway from 1911 to 1955. ==History== ===Fourth Street Line (1898–1911)=== The Fourth Street Line was originally built by the Los Angeles Traction Company. The first car operated over the line on November 30, 1898 (barely meeting the franchise's terms for operating date), with regular service starting on January 4, 1899. This route ran from a Downtown terminus at 3rd Street and Stephenson Avenue (present-day Traction Avenue) to 1st Street by way of Boyle Heights in the roadways of Stephenson, Merrick Street, 4th Street, and Fresno Street. In 1910, the LAIU was taken over by the Pacific Electric Railway who ran it as a local line for one year, extending the route to 4th and Hill by way of 3rd and Hill Streets. ===Sunnyside Division (1888–1911)=== thumb|left|Los Angeles and Redondo Railway freight train, 1884 The Sunnyside Division was the second division to be built by the Los Angeles and Redondo Railway. From the LA&R; terminus at 2nd and Spring Streets, the Sunnyside Line ran to Redondo Beach by way of 2nd Street, Broadway, 7th Street, Grand Avenue, Santa Barbara Avenue, Sunnyside Avenue (present-day South Hoover), a private right of way between 69th Street and Florence Avenue, Vermont Avenue, 166th Street, Redondo Beach Boulevard, Ripley Avenue, and Anita Street. During the Great Merger of 1911 the southern portion of the LA&R; was incorporated into the Pacific Electric Railway, while the northern portion became local routes of the Los Angeles Railway. At this point, the Fourth Street and Sunnyside Lines were merged into a single route. ===F Line (1911–1955)=== LARy streamlined the Fourth Street and Sunnyside Lines, avoiding Stephenson Avenue entirely and running the Downtown segment through Main Street. The new route followed Fresno Street, 4th Street, Main Street, Jefferson Boulevard, Grand Avenue, Hoover Avenue, a private right of way, and Vermont Avenue, terminating at Manchester Avenue, where a less frequent shuttle could be taken to the Pacific Electric's Delta station. In 1920, the shuttle was eliminated; the main line ran all the way to Delta. The route was given the letter designation "F" the following year. Rebuilding of the Fourth Street Viaduct over the Los Angeles River between 1930 and 1931 required substantial rerouting and shuttle services to facilitate continued service. In 1947 the Hoover section was eliminated, and the F car ran straight from Santa Barbara to Vermont Avenues. ====Reroute to Union Station==== In 1949, ten years after the opening of Union Station, F cars were rerouted to terminate at a loop segment on the steam railway terminal's north side. The 4th street track was eliminated, and the new loop connected to the remainder of the route by way of Macy Street and Main Street. Discontinuation of the line was considered as early as 1947, when residents along the route collected 5,000 signatures in a petition to maintain operations. Streetcar service ceased on May 22, 1955 and the line was converted to bus operations. ==Partial restoration== Vermont Avenue continued its growth, seeded by the robust public transportation provided by the streetcar. By 2020, the bus lines operating on the street had grown to ridership of 45,000 weekday boardings, making it the second busiest corridor in the network. As a result, Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority intends to rehabilitate the road for to allow for rapid transit. The corridor extends further south than the old V streetcar and may initially operate as bus rapid transit with more limited service than its progenitor. The Vermont Transit Corridor covers the southern portion of the Los Angeles Railway F line streetcar to Vermont Av. & 116th St, Delta terminus, now at I-105 freeway at the Vermont/Athens station on the Metro C line. ==References== ==External links== * F Line Archives — Pacific Electric Railway Historical Society * Category:Los Angeles Railway routes Category:Railway services introduced in 1920 Category:Railway services discontinued in 1955 Category:1920 establishments in California Category:1955 disestablishments in California
+The F and <F> Queens Boulevard Express/Sixth Avenue Local are two rapid transit services in the B Division of the New York City Subway. Their route bullets are colored , since they use and are part of the IND Sixth Avenue Line in Manhattan. The F operates at all times between 179th Street in Jamaica, Queens and Stillwell Avenue in Coney Island, Brooklyn, making all stops except for an express section on the IND Queens Boulevard Line between Forest Hills–71st Avenue and 21st Street–Queensbridge. During late nights, the F makes all stops in Queens as well. Two scheduled rush hour trips in the peak direction run express in Brooklyn between Jay Street–MetroTech and Church Avenue, making one stop in between at Seventh Avenue. This express service was introduced in September 2019. In Brooklyn, local service is denoted as (F) in a circle-shaped bullet while express service is denoted as <F> in a diamond- shaped bullet. From 1968 to 1976, the F ran express along the IND Culver Line in Brooklyn. The F also ran via the 53rd Street Tunnel until moving to the 63rd Street Tunnel in 2001. Since the 1990s, there have been calls to restore partial express service from Jay Street–MetroTech to Church Avenue, although this has been very controversial. The limited express <F> service between Jay Street and Church Avenue started on September 16, 2019, with two trains in the peak direction during rush hours. == History == === 1940s and 1950s === thumb|right|A poster notifying the opening of the Sixth Avenue Subway at 12:01 AM, Sunday, Dec. 15, 1940 With the opening of the IND Sixth Avenue Line on December 15, 1940, F service began, operating as the line's Queens Boulevard service. It operated between Parsons Boulevard and Church Avenue via Queens Boulevard Line, Sixth Avenue Line, and the Culver Line. It ran express in Queens and local in Manhattan and Brooklyn. F trains provided an additional 24/7 express route in Queens, and inaugurated express service on the Queens Boulevard Line east of Continental Avenue. F trains ran on the express tracks between West Fourth Street and Broadway-Lafayette Street to avoid conflict with the D and E south of West Fourth Street. This service pattern was first announced by the New York City Board of Transportation on December 1, 1939. With the start of F service, E service was cut back from Church Avenue to Broadway–Lafayette Street. On January 10, 1944, trains were extended to 169th Street during evenings, late nights, and Sunday mornings. Temporarily in 1948, as shown in a map from that year, the and F service switched, with the F terminating at Second Avenue, but this was subsequently rescinded. On December 11, 1950, trains were extended to the newly opened Jamaica–179th Street on evenings, nights, and Sunday mornings. On May 13, 1951, all trains outside of rush hour were extended to 179th Street using the local tracks beyond Parsons Boulevard. On October 8, 1951, trains were extended to 179th Street at all times. During rush hours F trains skipped 169th Street running via the express tracks. At other times, the F stopped at 169th Street. In 1953, the platforms were lengthened to at 75th Avenue and Sutphin Boulevard so that F trains could run eleven-car trains. The E and F began running eleven-car trains during rush hours on September 8, 1953. The extra train car increased the total carrying capacity by 4,000 passengers. The lengthening project cost $400,000. The operation of eleven-car trains ended in 1958 because of operational difficulties. The signal blocks, especially in Manhattan, were too short to accommodate the longer trains, and the motormen had a very small margin of error to properly platform the train. It was found that operating ten-car trains allowed for two additional trains per hour to be scheduled. On October 30, 1954, the connection between the IND Culver Line and BMT Culver Line opened, with the IND taking over the elevated section. All F service began terminating at Broadway–Lafayette Street with service entering Brooklyn via the Rutgers Street Tunnel. In addition, weekend and night trains began running local between Continental Avenue and 179th Street. During middays and early evenings, trains stopped at 169th Street. On April 29, 1956, trains were extended to Second Avenue. Beginning on October 6, 1957, trains began terminating at 34th Street–Herald Square during nights and weekends. Between September 8 and November 7, 1958, two F trains ran between Forest Hills and Second Avenue, leaving Forest Hills at 8:06 and 8:21 a.m. On November 10, they were routed to Hudson Terminal, before returning to Queens in E service. On the same day, F service was cut back from Second Avenue and started terminating at Broadway–Lafayette Street to allow for construction on the Chrystie Street Connection. === 1960s through 1980s === Two additional F trains began running from Parsons Boulevard during the morning rush hour on April 6, 1964; these trips began entering service at 179th Street on December 21, 1964. On December 13, 1965, two morning F trains began running to Chambers Street. Beginning on July 11, 1966, trains no longer ran express between Parsons Boulevard and 71st–Continental Avenues weekday middays, and were extended weekdays daytime from Broadway-Lafayette Street back to Second Avenue. On August 30, 1966, service was cut back to Broadway-Lafayette Street. With the opening of the Chrystie Street Connection on November 26, 1967, service was rerouted via this connection, the north side of the Manhattan Bridge, and the BMT Brighton Line in Brooklyn. F service replaced it on the IND Culver Line, with trips running to Coney Island at all times, with supplemental trips to Church Avenue during rush hours. File:F Train (1967-1979).svg 1967–1979 bullet Beginning on August 19, 1968, rush hour express service was added, in both directions, between Jay Street-Borough Hall and Church Avenue, and in rush hours, peak direction trains to and from Stillwell Avenue (alternating with those terminating at Kings Highway) ran express as well between Church Avenue and Kings Highway. Beginning on June 16, 1969 express service was modified, with Kings Highway trains operating as locals along the entire route from Jay Street to Kings Highway. On January 2, 1973, Kings Highway F trains began running express once again between Church Avenue and Jay Street in both directions. In addition, F trains began running express between 179th Street and Continental Avenue weekdays between 7:30 a.m. and 7:30 p.m. toward Queens, and between 6:00 a.m. and 6:15 p.m. toward Manhattan. In addition, between 10:00 a.m. and 2:20 p.m. Manhattan-bound, and between 10:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. Queens-bound, F trains would stop at 169th Street. On January 18, 1976, F express service between Jay Street and Church Avenue was discontinued during rush hours in the peak direction, and only Coney Island trains in the reverse- peak direction ran express between Jay Street and Church Avenue. Peak direction GG trains were cut back to Smith–Ninth Streets. On August 30, 1976, express service between Bergen Street and Church Avenue was completely discontinued, with all trains making all stops. Rush direction alternate-train express service between Ditmas Avenue and Kings Highway was retained. In addition, several northbound trips in the morning rush hour began being put into service at Avenue X. GG trains began terminating at Smith–9th Streets at all times. The elimination of express service was made as part of service changes which eliminated 215 runs that were deemed underutilized to reduce operating deficits. The changes, which saved $3.1 million annually, were part of a three phase cut in service that began in 1975. This change was also made due to continuing complaints about reduced Manhattan service by riders at local stations. On January 24, 1977, as part of a series of NYCTA service cuts to save $13 million, many subway lines began running shorter trains during middays. As part of the change, F trains began running with four cars between 9:50 a.m. and 1:50 p.m. Starting on August 27, 1977, the was made a local in Queens between Continental Avenue and Queens Plaza, late nights, replacing the service, which was cut back to Queens Plaza. This change was made as part of the last round of cuts in subway service announced in January 1977 to reduce annual operating costs by $30 million. Changes were also made in A, AA, B and N service. The NYCTA said that the cuts only duplicated other night service, and for most, would increase travel by a few minutes. Until 1986, 2 E trains and 2 F trains started at Continental Avenue in the morning rush hour with the intention to relieve congestion. These trains were eliminated because they resulted in a loading imbalance as these lightly-loaded trains would be followed by extremely crowded trains from 179th Street, which followed an 8-minute gap of E and F service from 179th Street. On May 24, 1987, and services swapped terminals in Queens to provide R trains direct access to the Jamaica Yard. As part of the reroute plan, F service along Queens Boulevard was discontinued during late nights (1 a.m. to 5 a.m.). Late night local service was replaced by the R, which ran as a Queens Boulevard Local at all times. F trains were cut back to 57th Street on the Sixth Avenue Line during late nights.* * In 1986, the TA studied which two services should serve the line during late nights as ridership at this time did not justify three services. A public hearing was held in December 1986, and it was determined that having the E and R run during late nights provided the best service. Peak-direction F express service on the Culver Line in Brooklyn, between Kings Highway and 18th Avenue, was suspended on April 27, 1987 because of work to reconstruct station mezzanines along that part of the Culver Line, and was never restored in this section. === Archer and 63rd Street changes === On December 11, 1988, the Archer Avenue Lines opened, and the E was rerouted to its current terminus at Jamaica Center, running via the Queens Boulevard Line's express tracks. It was decided that the E would serve Archer Avenue, rather than the F, to minimize disruption to passengers who continued to use Hillside Avenue; to maximize Jamaica Avenue ridership; and to take advantage of the length of the peak ridership period, which is longer on the F. It was found that most riders using bus routes that now served Archer Avenue used the E, while most passengers on buses to 179th Street used the F. F trains no longer stopped at 169th Street between 10 a.m. and 3:30 p.m., so the R was extended to 179th Street to serve local stations east of Continental Avenue and to allow F trains to continue running express to 179th Street. The 1988 changes angered some riders because they resulted in the loss of direct Queens Boulevard Express service at local stations east of 71st Avenue—namely the 169th Street, Sutphin Boulevard, Van Wyck Boulevard and 75th Avenue stations. Local elected officials pressured the MTA to eliminate all-local service at these stations. On September 30, 1990, the R was cut back to 71st–Continental Avenue outside of rush hours. Late night service to 179th Street was replaced by G service, while F trains began running local east of 71st Avenue during middays, evenings, and weekends. In response to the pleas of local officials, the MTA considered three options including leaving service as is, having E trains run local east of 71st Avenue along with R service, and having F trains run local east of 71st Avenue to replace R service. The third option was chosen for testing in October or November 1992. On October 26, 1992, R trains were cut back to 71st Avenue at all times. In its place, the F ran local between 71st Avenue and 179th Street at all times, which eliminated express service along Hillside Avenue. This change was implemented for six months on an experimental basis at the request of passengers using the 169th Street, Sutphin Boulevard, Van Wyck Boulevard and 75th Avenue stations, which had lost direct Queens Boulevard Express service in 1988. After the six months, the change was kept even though 77% of passengers had benefitted from the pre- October 1992 service plan because there was minimal negative passenger reaction and the intensity of the request. The change increased travel time along the F by minutes, and reduced travel time for passengers at local stations by one to two minutes. On October 29, 1989, the IND 63rd Street Line opened. Since Q trains did not run during late nights, a special daily late night F– service ran during these hours; in the northbound direction, F trains would operate along its normal route from Coney Island to 47th–50th Streets–Rockefeller Center, then turn into a Q and operate to 21st Street–Queensbridge; in the southbound direction, Q trains would operate from 21st Street to 47th–50th Streets, then turn into an F train and operate along its normal route to Coney Island. The special F/Q service was eventually designated as F in April 1993. In March 1997, late night service was cut back to 57th Street due to work to reconstruct the trackbed in the 63rd Street Tunnel. A single-track shuttle provided service between 57th Street and 21st Street. On August 30, 1997, late night F service was restored to 179th Street as a Queens Boulevard local, replacing G service, which was cut back to Court Square. Service on the 63rd Street Line was provided by a shuttle. On that date, E service began running local in Queens during late nights. These changes were made to accommodate construction work for the 63rd Street Connection. On May 7, 2001, the F service started being rerouted via the new 63rd Street connector during some nights and weekends. On December 16, 2001, the 63rd Street Connector officially opened, connecting the IND 63rd Street Line with the IND Queens Boulevard Line. In a controversial move, the new local service replaced the express F service in the heavily trafficked 53rd Street Tunnel between Manhattan and Queens, while F service was rerouted to the 63rd Street Tunnel and ran express in Queens between 71st Avenue and 21st Street–Queensbridge at all times. As part of the change, rush hour service was decreased from 18 trains per hour to 15 trains per hour, allowing E service to increase from 12 to 15 trains per hour. In addition, the frequency of weekday evening service was increased, with trains running every ten minutes instead of every 12 minutes. On September 8, 2002, Stillwell Avenue was closed for reconstruction. F service was cut back to Avenue X, and service to Stillwell Avenue was replaced by a shuttle bus. F service returned to Stillwell Avenue on May 23, 2004, upon completion of the construction work. ===Automation=== In the 2010s, the MTA implemented communications-based train control (CBTC) on the portion of the IND Queens Boulevard Line west of Kew Gardens–Union Turnpike. The 63rd Street Connection to 21st Street–Queensbridge, used by the F. would also be retrofitted with CBTC. The automation of the Queens Boulevard Line meant that the would be able to run 3 more trains during peak hours, up from 29 trains per hour before the project started. CBTC on the Queens Boulevard Line west of Union Turnpike was fully operational by February 2022. The 2015–2019 Capital Program was revised in April 2018 to fund to the design for the expedited installation of CBTC on the Queens Boulevard Line east of Kew Gardens–Union Turnpike. Another part of the F route, between Church Avenue and West Eighth Street–New York Aquarium on the Culver Line, was selected for CBTC installation as part of the 2015–2019 Capital Program. During much of 2020 and 2021, there was no weekend F service south of Church Avenue to accommodate installation of CBTC on the IND Culver Line. In December 2022, the MTA announced that it would award a contract for the installation of CBTC on the Culver Line between Bergen Street and Church Avenue, which carries the F and G routes. As a result of these projects, the F would be automated along all of its route but the segment south of West 8th Street. On March 17, 2023, New York City Transit made adjustments to evening and late night , F and service to accommodate long-term CBTC installation on the Queens Boulevard Line between Union Turnpike and 179th Street. F service originating from 179th Street after 10:30 pm and from Stillwell Avenue after 8:30 pm began operating local in Queens, marking the return of overnight F local service since it was discontinued in 2001. ===Restoration of express service=== There has been community support for resuming express service on the Culver Line between Jay Street–MetroTech and Church Avenue, including from Mayor Michael Bloomberg and Senator Daniel Squadron. The MTA announced that after the elevated Culver Viaduct underwent extensive renovations from 2009 to 2012, "There will be no impediment to implementing the F express." While F express service was contested for four years by some residents on the Culver Line who feared they would lose a one-seat ride into Manhattan, some politicians drafted a letter in 2014 petitioning for express service. In late October 2015, city officials considered implementing express service.http://brooklyn.news12.com/news/city- officials-to-restore-express-f-train-service-to-coney-island-1.11012183 Some rush-hour peak-direction F trains ran express between Jay Street and Fourth Avenue since at least 2015 and the MTA once planned to use expanded rush-hour express service (Jay Street to Church Avenue) in both directions in the summers of 2016 and 2017. In May 2016, the MTA announced half of all rush-hour F trains could start running express in fall 2017, with the train frequency on the rest of the F route remaining the same; this was never implemented. However, this service still remained "under consideration" as of 2017. In July 2019, the MTA announced that it planned to run four express F trains per day, two in each direction. The express service started on September 16, 2019. The trains run in the peak direction, toward Manhattan in the morning and toward Brooklyn in the evening. The trains make an intermediate stop at Seventh Avenue and bypass a total of six stations. The trains toward Manhattan run between 7 and 7:30 a.m., while the trains toward Coney Island run between 4:25 and 5 p.m.https://new.mta.info/sites/default/files/2019-09/tfcur.pdf The service frequencies along the line are not changed, as the two express trips in each direction were converted from trips that ran local. This service is represented with a diamond <F> similar to the symbol used on other peak- direction express services. The express service was suspended in March 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, but was restored more than a year later, on May 3, 2021. == Route == ===Service pattern=== The F uses the following lines: Line From To Tracks Times Line From To Tracks 20px|F service 20px|F diamond service Line From To Tracks all times except late nights late nights rush hours, peak direction IND Queens Boulevard Line Jamaica–179th Street 75th Avenue local Limited service Forest Hills–71st Avenue 36th Street local express IND 63rd Street Line (full line) 21st Street–Queensbridge Lexington Avenue–63rd Street all IND Sixth Avenue Line 57th Street 47th–50th Streets–Rockefeller Center Second Avenue local Delancey Street York Street all IND Culver Line (full line) Jay Street–MetroTech Church Avenue local express Limited service Ditmas Avenue Coney Island–Stillwell Avenue local === Stations === For a more detailed station listing, see the articles on the lines listed above. 20px|F service 20px|F Brooklyn Express service Stations Subway transfers Connections Queens Queens Queens Queens Queens Queens Queens Boulevard Line Queens Boulevard Line Queens Boulevard Line Queens Boulevard Line Queens Boulevard Line Queens Boulevard Line Q3 bus to JFK Int'l Airport Q3 bus to JFK Int'l Airport Q44 Select Bus Service 20px|alt=Elevator access to mezzanine only Q44 Select Bus Service Q10 bus to JFK Int'l Airport LIRR Main Line at align=center rowspan = 5 Q72 bus to LaGuardia Airport Q52/Q53 Select Bus Service Q53 Select Bus Service Q53 Select Bus Service (IRT Flushing Line) Q47 bus to LaGuardia Airport Marine Air Terminal Q53 Select Bus Service Q70 Select Bus Service to LaGuardia Airport align=center rowspan = 5 63rd Street Line 63rd Street Line 63rd Street Line 63rd Street Line 63rd Street Line 63rd Street Line Manhattan Manhattan Manhattan Manhattan Manhattan Manhattan Roosevelt Island Tramway NYC Ferry: Astoria route Out-of-system transfers with MetroCard/OMNY: (IRT Lexington Avenue Line at ) (BMT Broadway Line at ) Sixth Avenue Line Sixth Avenue Line Sixth Avenue Line Sixth Avenue Line Sixth Avenue Line Sixth Avenue Line 20px|alt=Elevator access to mezzanine only (IRT Flushing Line at ) (IRT Broadway–Seventh Avenue Line at , daytime only) (BMT Broadway Line at , daytime only) (42nd Street Shuttle at , daytime only) (IND Eighth Avenue Line at , daytime only) (BMT Broadway Line) M34 / M34A Select Bus Service PATH at Amtrak, LIRR, NJ Transit at Pennsylvania Station M23 Select Bus Service PATH at (BMT Canarsie Line at ) Out-of-system transfer with MetroCard/OMNY: (IRT Broadway–Seventh Avenue Line at ) PATH at M14A/D Select Bus Service (IND Eighth Avenue Line) PATH at (IRT Lexington Avenue Line at ) Houston Street Branch Houston Street Branch Houston Street Branch Houston Street Branch Houston Street Branch Houston Street Branch M15 Select Bus Service (BMT Nassau Street Line at ) M14A Select Bus Service Brooklyn Brooklyn Brooklyn Brooklyn Brooklyn Brooklyn NYC Ferry: East River and South Brooklyn routes (at Old Fulton Street and Furman Street) Culver Line Culver Line Culver Line Culver Line Culver Line Culver Line (BMT Fourth Avenue Line) | | | | (BMT Fourth Avenue Line at ) | | Some rush hour trips in either direction begin and end their runs to Manhattan and Queens at this station B82 Select Bus Service Some northbound a.m. rush hour trips begin at this station. 20px|alt=Elevator access to mezzanine only --> (BMT Brighton Line) (BMT West End Line) (BMT Sea Beach Line) (BMT Brighton Line) == References == == External links == * MTA NYC Transit – F Sixth Avenue Local * * * # Category:New York City Subway services
+thumb|S-train, line F at Grøndal Station F is the service designation for trains on the ring line of Copenhagen's S-train network. It runs from 05:00 to 01:00 from Ny Ellebjerg to Hellerup. Trains run every 5 minutes between about 7:00 and 19:00, Monday through Friday, and every 10 minutes on weekends, early mornings and late evenings/nights. On Friday and Saturday nights there is also a 30 minutes service throughout the night. In 2028 this line is planned to become a pilot project for driverless operation of the S-train system, becoming fully automated in 2029.DR.dk. Førerløse tog gør 500 lokoførere overflødige.

At some times the variant service letters have been used to indicate which trains continued from Hellerup to Klampenborg. In other periods it has simply been because then-prevalent principles mandated that a single service letter such as F could not be used for more than exactly 3 trains an hour, so in parts of the day when more trains ran, extra services had to be invented.

+F (also known as The Expelled) is a 2010 British slasher film written and directed by Johannes Roberts and starring David Schofield and Eliza Bennett. ==Plot== A teacher at Wittering College in north London, Robert Anderson (Schofield), is hit in the face by a pupil and forced to take three months' leave to avoid being sued by the parents of the child for giving the pupil an F grade, which is against school policy. Anderson is deeply affected by the incident and upon his return to teaching, he is an alcoholic, emotionally disturbed and separated from his wife, Helen (Aubrey). Their daughter, Kate (Bennett), lives with her mother Helen and has classes with her father, but does not respect him. The headmistress, Sarah Balham (Gemmell), loathes Anderson and clearly wants to get rid of him, but the National Union of Teachers does not allow her to fire him. She indirectly accuses him of bad teaching and bringing alcohol into school. When Anderson reads about violence in another school, he sends a memo advising all employees at the school about the high number of attacks on teachers and auxiliary staff annually. As a result, he is considered paranoid and delusional by everybody at the school. One day, after hours, Anderson is overseeing detention, in which he has placed his daughter. They argue over her use of a mobile telephone during the detention session – he slaps her in the face and immediately regrets it. Soon after, the protagonist notes some strange movements outside the school and discovers that the telephone lines are down. As he stands by a closed window, a milkshake is thrown at him from outside and the message 'U R Dead' appears written in the milkshake. He advises security guard James (Finlay Robertson), who seems uninterested. Meanwhile, another security guard Brian, (Jamie Kenna) has been murdered by hoodies who locked him in a wheelie bin and set fire to it. Looking for his daughter, Anderson visits the school library but, after he leaves, the librarian is confronted by two hooded characters, who murder her. Anderson finds his daughter smoking in the toilets with her boyfriend, Jake Eaves (Max Fowler) and headmistress Balham instructs them all to go home. Kate tells Balham that her father slapped her and Balham asks her to make a statement. Meanwhile, PE teacher Nicky (McKee) passes through the gymnasium and into the changing rooms, where she is attacked by four teenagers wearing hoodies and carrying crowbars. Having left the building, Anderson goes to his car, but finds the dead security guard's torch on the ground in the car park. Meanwhile, Kate is writing her statement in the staff room. Balham realises she can finally sack Anderson and, unable to use the telephone, calls security guard James to ensure that the teacher does not re-enter the school, and Helen, to inform her of the assault. Balham subsequently finds a body and escapes from two attackers herself, only for them to kill her before she can call the police. Anderson then discovers her corpse, her face badly disfigured. He tries to call the police, but when an attacker enters the room he hides, abandoning the phone, which the attacker crushes. Leaving the building, Kate is immediately chased back in by one of the attackers. Her boyfriend Eaves, who was waiting outside, enters the building to look for her. She comes across a member of auxiliary staff Gary, (Tom Mannion), who is unaware of the situation in the school and goes after the attackers, but is electrocuted immediately after discovering Eaves, who is wrapped in barbed wire. Anderson and James team up to find Kate, who has left a 'Help' note in view of a CCTV camera. They discover Nicky struggling along a corridor, but she has been badly mutilated. Finding the room in which Kate is hiding, they are confronted by a hoodie and in a moment of cowardice, James locks the door with Anderson inside. Meanwhile, the police arrive and enter the school. A female police officer is pushed down a flight of concrete stairs by one of the hoodies and the other policeman is hit with a crowbar in the face. The attackers then find James, who tries to escape but is cornered by the youths. Anderson finds Kate, but one of the hooded attackers catches the pair off guard, but his attack on Anderson is deflected and he stabs and wounds Kate. Anderson manages to overpower the attacker, grabs the knife and stabs him multiple times, then picks up his daughter and rushes out of the building. However, when they reach his car, they spot Helen's car in the car park and realise that she has arrived at the school. Anderson has to decide in an instant whether to save his daughter's life by driving her to hospital, or to save Helen by re-entering the school. He puts Kate in the back seat of the car and drives her to the hospital, leaving Helen to walk around the school, unaware of her potential fate. ==Cast== *David Schofield as Robert Anderson, English teacher *Eliza Bennett as Kate Anderson, his daughter *Ruth Gemmell as Sarah Balham, head teacher *Juliet Aubrey as Helen Anderson, Robert's estranged wife *Emma Cleasby as Lucy, school librarian *Finlay Robertson as James, school security officer *Roxanne McKee as Nicky Wright, PE teacher *Tom Mannion as Gary, school caretaker *Max Fowler as Jake Eaves, Kate's boyfriend *Jamie Kenna as Brian Stanton, school security officer *Ian Cullen as Maths Teacher ==Critical reception== Variety wrote "Green-tinged lensing provides a unifying, if oppressive, aesthetic, while the sparse, haunting score, incorporating sinister choral elements, makes the grade." The Guardian wrote "F doesn't quite work, but it aims at something interesting." While Bloody Disgusting said "It's not perfect, but it's a solid, well shot slasher/thriller hybrid that fans of Ils (Them) or Eden Lake should probably appreciate." Peter Bradshaw of the Guardian wrote that "There's a classy cast, including Ruth Gemmell as the headteacher and Juliet Aubrey as Robert's wife, but those faceless demon-hoodies seem to belong to a more supernatural kind of thriller to me, and slightly undermine the realist impact". Kim Newman wrote that "It’s a fun suspense-slasher horror, but Schofield roots it in a credible, cutting modern British horror of Daily Mail headlines and teachers driven to nervous breakdowns". ==References== ==External links== * Category:2010 films Category:2010 horror films Category:2010 horror thriller films Category:British high school films Category:British horror thriller films Category:Films about dysfunctional families Category:Films about educators Category:Films about school violence Category:Films set in London Category:2010s high school films Category:Films directed by Johannes Roberts Category:Films with screenplays by Johannes Roberts Category:2010s English- language films Category:2010s British films

+F is a musical note, the fourth above C or fifth below C. It is the fourth note and the sixth semitone of the solfège. It is also known as fa in fixed-do solfège. It has enharmonic equivalents of E (E-sharp) and G (G-double flat), amongst others. When calculated in equal temperament with a reference of A above middle C as 440 Hz, the frequency of Middle F (F4) is approximately 349.228 Hz. See pitch (music) for a discussion of historical variations in frequency. ==Designation by octave== Scientific designation Helmholtz designation Octave name Frequency (Hz) F−1 F͵͵͵ or ͵͵͵F or FFFF Octocontra F0 F͵͵ or ͵͵F or FFF Subcontra F1 F͵ or ͵F or FF Contra F2 F Great F3 f Small F4 f′ One-lined F5 f′′ Two-lined F6 f′′′ Three-lined F7 f′′′′ Four-lined F8 f′′′′′ Five-lined F9 f′′′′′′ Six-lined F10 f′′′′′′′ Seven-lined ==Scales== ===Common scales beginning on F=== * F major: F G A B C D E F * F natural minor: F G A B C D E F * F harmonic minor: F G A B C D E F * F melodic minor ascending: F G A B C D E F * F melodic minor descending: F E D C B A G F ===Diatonic scales=== * F Ionian: F G A B C D E F * F Dorian: F G A B C D E F * F Phrygian: F G A B C D E F * F Lydian: F G A B C D E F * F Mixolydian: F G A B C D E F * F Aeolian: F G A B C D E F * F Locrian: F G A B C D E F ===Jazz melodic minor=== * F ascending melodic minor: F G A B C D E F * F Dorian ♭2: F G A B C D E F * F Lydian augmented: F G A B C D E F * F Lydian dominant: F G A B C D E F * F Mixolydian ♭6: F G A B C D E F * F Locrian ♮2: F G A B C D E F * F altered: F G A B C D E F ==E-sharp== E () is a common enharmonic equivalent of F, but is not regarded as the same note.

+F is a modular, compiled, numeric programming language, designed for scientific programming and scientific computation. F was developed as a modern Fortran, thus making it a subset of Fortran 95. It combines both numerical and data abstraction features from these languages. F is also backwards compatible with Fortran 77, allowing calls to Fortran 77 programs. F was first included in the g95 compiler. == Overview == F is designed to be a minimal subset of Fortran, with only about one hundred intrinsic procedures. Language keywords and intrinsic function names are reserved keywords in F and no other names may take this exact form. F contains the same character set used in Fortran 90/95 with a limit of 132 characters. Reserved words are always written in lowercase. Any uppercase letter may appear in a character constant. Variable names do not have restriction and can include upper and lowercase characters. ===Operators=== F supports many of the standard operators used in Fortran. The operators supported by F are: * Arithmetic operators: `+`, `-`, `*`, `/`, `**` * Relational operators: `<`, `<=`, `==`, `/=`, `>`, `>=` * Logical operators: `.not.`, `.and.`, `.or.`, `.eqv.`, `.neqv.` * character concatenation: `//` The assignment operator is denoted by the equal sign `=`. In addition, pointer assignment is denoted by `=>`. Comments are denoted by the `!` symbol: variable = expression ! assignment pointer => target ! pointer assignment ===Data types=== Similar to Fortran, the type specification is made up of a type, a list of attributes for the declared variables, and the variable list. F provides all the same types as Fortran as well, with the sole exception of doubles: ! type [,attribute list] :: entity declaration list real :: x, y ! declaring variables of type real x,y without an attribute list integer (kind = long), dimension (100) :: x ! declaring variable of type big integer array with the identifier x character (len = 100) :: student_name ! declaring a character type variable with len 100 F does not have intrinsic support for object-oriented programming, but it does allow for records: type, public :: City character (len = 100) :: name character (len = 50) :: state end type City Variable declarations are followed by an attribute list. The attributes allowed are `parameter`, `public`, `private`, `allocatable`, `dimension`, `intent`, `optional`, `pointer`, `save` and `target`. The attribute list is followed by `::`, which is part of the syntax. F also allows for optional initialization in the list of objects. All items in a list will have the same attributes in a given type declaration statement. In addition, declarations are attribute oriented instead of entity oriented. ===Statement and control flow=== F supports 3 statements for control flow: `if`, a basic conditional, `case`, a switch statement, and `do`, a conditional while loop. The `return`, `stop`, `cycle`, and `exit` statements from Fortran may be used to break control flow. real :: x do i = 100 x += i print i cycle end do max : do if (x > y) then exit max: end if x = y; end max stop if (x < y) then x = x + y; else if ( x > y) then x = y - x; end if select case (maximum): case (0) x = 0 case (1) x = 1 case (5) x = 5 case default x = 10 end select F places a heavy emphasis on modular programming. Modules in F are called "programs": program main ! Insert code here end program main Placing procedures outside of a module is prohibited. F supports most of the modules and subroutines found in the Fortran 95 standard library. All procedures in F are external by default, and require a result clause that returns the value of a function. F supports recursion. All of the intrinsic procedures found in Fortran 95 may be used in F, with the exceptions of `achar`, `iachar`, `lge`, `lgt`, `lle`, `llt`, `transfer`, `dble`, `dim`, `dprod`, and `mod`. == References == == Reference Books == * Walter S.

+Frederic Alfred Meier (4 February 1887 – 13 February 1954) was a British school master and headmaster of Bedales School, with a special interest in practical methods of teaching Physics. == Early life and education == Meier was born in Bromley, Kent, the son of German immigrant parents Caspar Gottlieb Meier and Frieda Fincke. He was educated at Quernmore School, Bromley, before going to London University where at the age of 19 he gained a BSc in Engineering with first class honours. He had a year's practical experience as an engineering apprentice at Yarrow's shipbuilding works on the Thames before going as an Exhibitioner to Trinity College, Cambridge, gaining 1st class in the Maths Tripos Pt 1 and 2nd class in Natural Sciences (Physics) Tripos Pt 2. The rest of his life was spent in the teaching profession.Bedales School Roll, The Bedales Association (1993) In 1919 he married Sheena MacKenzie, daughter of a Scottish Presbyterian minister, and they had two daughters. He was known as Alfred to his family and close friends, but to many colleagues (and pupils) he was always Freddy or Freddie. == Outline of teaching career == * 1910 – 1913 Trinity College, Glenalmond: Science and Engineering Master * 1913 – 1914 Marlborough College, Wiltshire: Science and Mathematics Master * 1914 – 1935 Rugby School: Assistant Science Master and then Senior Science Master and head of Physics Department * 1935 – 1946 Bedales School: Headmaster * 1946 – 1954 University of London Institute of Education: Head of Physical Science Department == Details of career == When he went to Rugby, the First World War had just started, and he was appointed training officer for the school OTC (Officers' Training Corps). It was regarded as important war work, so the War Office would not allow him to enlist. In 1922 Meier and his wife Sheena were asked to take over the running of The Firs, a 'waiting house' with twelve young boys waiting for vacancies in the main Rugby School Houses. They ran the house until the arrival of their second daughter in 1931. In 1933 it was suggested to Meier that he might apply for the post of headmaster of Bedales, following the decision by the Founder, J H Badley, to step down after 40 years as head. He was eventually appointed and took up the post in Autumn 1935. The difficult years of the Second World War left him exhausted, and in the spring of 1945, just as the war in Europe was coming to an end, he fell ill with pneumonia. Though he made a rapid recovery, thanks to the newly introduced drug M & B, he decided to retire from Bedales at the end of the following academic year. Writing of Meier's years of headship, HM Schools Inspector Roy Wake wrote: "There are people who have overlooked Freddy Meier, and not realised how considerable his achievement was. Twice over he rescued the school – restoring numbers and financial stability when he first came and again in piloting it through the years of the war".Bedales School Chronicle, issue 38, Bedales School (1954)Bedales 1935 – 1965: Memories and Reflections of Fifteen Bedalians, The Bedales Society (1978)Roy Wake & Pennie Denton, Bedales School: The First Hundred Years, London: Haggerston Press (1993) In 1946 he joined the staff of London Institute of Education as head of the Physical Science Department. He was still working there when in 1954 he died suddenly from a blood clot following a prostate operation.Dr G B Jeffery, FRS, Obituary in The Times, 17 February 1954 == Teaching methods and influence == Meier believed that physics should be taught not just through theoretical explanation but with practical, preferably hands-on, experiments that demonstrated in a simple and direct way the principles involved. But the necessary apparatus, if available at all, was often expensive and sometimes too delicate for students to use themselves. Meier set about designing and then making his own apparatus, using a variety of cheap readily-available materials and a good deal of ingenuity. He recycled long before it was fashionable to do so. His ideas were already well developed by the time he left Rugby. At Bedales the duties of headmaster left him little time for teaching, though he was able to teach a small 6th form Physics class, but he spent what time he could, particularly in the school holidays, further developing teaching apparatus. He became well known in the Science Masters' Association (S.M.A.), of which he was a keen and active member, for his enthusiasm and skill in pursuing this aspect of Physics teaching. At the Institute of Education he had full scope for further developing his ideas and bringing them to a wider audience. In the academic year 1948–49, for example, he gave a presidential address at the Royal Institute to the London Association of Science Teachers, gave two series of lectures for Kent Science teachers and two lectures to the S.M.A., all the lectures being illustrated with experiments, and arranged three exhibitions of apparatus and experiments.K D Fuller, A Review of Nuffield 'A' Level Physics, MSc Dissertation, University of Reading (1982) In 1951 he was invited to join a sub-committee of the S.M.A. which was looking into the feasibility of making it possible to use a particular M.K.S system in school science teaching. The sub-committee's report, which was published in 1954 under the title The Teaching of Electricity with special reference to the use of M.K.S units, included a large section on experiments and the making of the necessary apparatus. In his preface, the chairman of the sub-committee wrote: "Above all we owe a great debt of gratitude to the late F.A.Meier, who was responsible for the lion’s share of the experiments in this Report. His enthusiasm and boundless energy have brought within the scope of every school laboratory experiments (such as the Lorenz determination) which, although fundamental to the understanding of electricity, had previously been regarded as the perquisite of institutions such as the National Physical Laboratory. For him, a difficulty was merely a challenge, something to be overcome".The Teaching of Electricity – a report of a sub-committee of the Science Masters’ Association, London: John Murray Ltd for The Science Masters’ Association (1954) Meier's early engineering training and personal DIY skills meant he was well equipped to practise what he preached. But one criticism sometimes levelled at this approach was that not every Physics teacher, however sympathetic to his ideas, could be expected to have the necessary handyman skills to carry them out. However, his influence was considerable, and though he died some years before the Nuffield Foundation set up the Nuffield Science Teaching Project in 1962 with the object of modernising education in schools, their emphasis on the need for students to experience science themselves through practical work rather than just reading about it clearly built on his ideas, and a number of his experiments were incorporated into their proposed syllabus. == References == *http://centaur.reading.ac.uk/7534/1/Malvern_and_Fuller.pdf Fuller and Malvern's Challenge & Change: a history of the Nuffield A-level Physics Project *http://www.nuffieldfoundation.org/practical-physics/cylindrical- mirror-aberration-and-caustic-curve F A Meier's famous comb and mirror experiment *http://www.aim25.ac.uk/cgi- bin/vcdf/detail?coll_id=11347&inst;_id=20 Reference to F A Meier as influencing Sir John Gaddum Category:1887 births Category:1954 deaths Category:British physicists Category:Heads of schools in England Category:People from Bromley Category:British people of German descent Category:Alumni of the University of London Category:Alumni of Trinity College, Cambridge Category:Academics of the UCL Institute of Education

+The F B was an Imperial Japanese Army (IJA) military transport/personnel carrier used for crossing difficult swampy terrain. It was part of a series of vehicles developed by the army in its effort to mechanize and give mobility to their forces. A prior prototype known as the S B swamp vehicle was built, but it proved to be too heavy and cumbersome for its designed use. First produced in 1935, the F B was shorter and lighter than the S B prototype. A total of 146 F B units were built, making it the most numerous model produced of this type of vehicle by the Japanese Army. Subsequent to the F B, a smaller unit known as the T B swamp scout vehicle was produced. ==Development== The F B swamp vehicle was a military transport/personnel carrier of the Imperial Japanese Army (IJA), which was developed and used for crossing swampy terrain. It was part of the effort by the army to mechanize their forces and its "cross-country capabilities". The F B was first produced in 1935, with 146 units being built.Taki’s Imperial Japanese Army: Swamp Vehicle "FB" The F B had a two-to-three-man crew. The vehicle had eight road wheels per side, with rubber floats attached to the track links in order to prevent the vehicle from sinking into the quagmire. The F B could also be used to transport men across water ways, powered by a drive propeller shaft. ==S B swamp vehicle prototype== left|thumb|upright|Rear-angle view of S B The S B swamp vehicle was the first prototype design built by the IJA for use as a military transport/personnel carrier for crossing swampy terrain and water ways. It was also designed to transport men across water ways, powered by a drive propeller shaft. Built in 1933, like the subsequent F B vehicle it had rubber floats attached to its track links to prevent it from sinking in the mire. It differed from the FB design by having "fins at the track links" and additional tracks under the hull.Taki’s Imperial Japanese Army: Swamp Vehicle "SB" However, it did not go into production as it was deemed too heavy at 10 tons and too long at 10m. The F B Swamp Vehicle was developed thereafter to address these issues encountered during testing. ==T B swamp scout vehicle== Subsequent to the F B, a smaller swamp crossing vehicle was produced in 1942, which was known as the T B swamp scout vehicle. The track links had rubber floats attached to them in order to prevent the vehicle from sinking in the mire.

+The F Club was a punk rock, post-punk and new wave club night in Leeds that ran between 1977 and 1982. Beginning as the Stars of Today in a common room in Leeds Polytechnic, it was held at various venues across the city during its tenure, which also included the Ace of Clubs and Roots. After moving to Brannigan's in 1978, it changed its name to the Fan Club. In Karl and Beverley Spracklen's book The Evolution of Goth Culture it was described as the space "where gothic rock was born in the form it is now". The club was foundational in the emergence of the goth subculture and led to other high profile clubs in the scene, such as the Batcave. It was frequented by members of many influential post-punk and gothic rock groups such as the Sisters of Mercy, Gang of Four, the March Violets, New Model Army and Southern Death Cult. ==History== The club night began in the summer of 1977 under the name the Stars of Today. Founded by John Keenan, Graham Cardy and Shaun Cavell, the night originally was hosted in an available commonroom in Leeds Polytechnic. While here, it hosted performances by acts such as the Slits, XTC and Slaughter & the Dogs. When the summer ended, the University did not wish for the night to continue leading to it relocating to the Ace of Clubs in Woodhouse. Here, the club changed its name to the F Club in reference to how to the flyer for the final event at the University read "Let's get the 'F' out of here". In order to keep the attendees through this move, the club introduced a £1 membership scheme, where members would be admitted for cheaper. While here, the night was host to groups such as X-Ray Spex, Wayne County & the Electric Chairs, Sham 69, and early performances by the Mekons and Gang of Four. In 1978, it moved once again to Roots in Chapeltown, where it hosted Siouxsie and the Banshees, Joy Division and Rich Kids. In August 1978, it relocated to the basement of Brannigan's on the corner of Call Lane and Lower Briggate. With this move it changed its name to the Fan Club, due to a leaflet by the Leveller claiming the "F" stood for "fascist". Here it hosted the Cure. It was here that Andrew Eldritch and Gary Marx, who would go on to be the founding lineup of the Sisters of Mercy first met. In 1981, the March Violets played their first performance at the venue, followed by the Sisters of Mercy's first performance. Bands such as Soft Cell, New Model Army, the Danse Society, Skeletal Family and Southern Death Cult also formed at the club during this period. On the third and fourth of October 2007, the New Roscoe hosted thirtieth anniversary performance for the club. On 12 October 2012 Brudenell Social Club hosted 35th anniversary concert headlined by Penetration with support from Expelaires and Knife Edge reforming for the occasion. On 18 August 2018, the Brudenell Social Club hosted forty-first anniversary reunion show for the former members of the club. ==References== Category:Goth subculture Category:Goth venues Category:Post-punk Category:Music venues completed in 1977 Category:Music venues in Leeds Category:1977 establishments in England Category:Underground punk scene in the United Kingdom Category:Punk rock venues Category:Club nights
+Collars Oars is a UK, Oxford based business specialising in producing hand crafted wooden yacht masts, wooden oars and spars. The company is currently owned by Freeland Yachtspars Limited and has exchanged hands several times since it was founded by Frank Collar in 1932. == The early days == The business of F.Collar Ltd was started in 1932 by Mr Frank Collar who was at the time trained in accountancy but had always been a keen rower. Based in the old Oxford University Boathouse situated at the bottom of Isis Street, he began by repairing damaged oars for college crews. With demand high a few weeks later he was joined by his father along with a 14-year-old by the name of Bill Scaldwell who was taken on as an apprentice. With the growing popularity of rowing it was not long after that an order was received for the manufacture of six pairs of sculls, starting the business of oar making. A small quantity of wood was purchased and with limited tools and no machines, they were made by hand, and in the absence of electricity they were varnished by candlelight. The business progressed and orders grew for new sets of rowing blades for not only the Oxford University crews but also other schools and colleges throughout the country including the Cambridge University teams. By the time the Second World War broke out the Collar reputation was sufficiently established for Frank to secure a contract with the Air Ministry to make oars for all aircraft lifeboats. == Ministry of Defence contract == Winning a contract with the Ministry of Defence (United Kingdom) (MOD) is marked as a turning point in the company history due to the vast quantity of oars ordered and as a result additional staff, machines and premises had to be found. While the oars for the Air Ministry were in production the Royal Navy approached Collars to design a paddle to be used in invasion. It had to be able to enter the water as quietly as possible yet strong enough to do the job. A design for the 5’ Paddle was submitted, accepted and thousands were ordered. The contract required a nearly 24-hour production schedule to meet the deadline. Today there is still an enabling contract in place with the MOD and the same paddle, along with certain oars are still being produced by Collars in Oxford. == Yacht masts == In 1950 Frank Collar and Bill Scaldwell joined in partnership and this was shortly followed by the boom in sailing which took F. Collar into the manufacturing of yacht and dinghy masts in a big way. With the chosen timber of Sitka Spruce being used in both oars and masts, and a very similar manufacturing process, this was a natural progression. By the time of the 1968 Mexico Olympics Collars were commissioned to supply all the masts for the popular Finn Class dinghy,F Collar Ltd supplied oars for all the Olympic Games between 1952 and 1984 and with wood being a varying natural material, 100 masts were made and the 50 most similar masts were chosen and taken to competition. == Accolades == The Collar racing oars have been exported to every Western Country as well as regularly exported to Australia, New Zealand and America. Used in every Olympic games from 1952 to 1984 as well as international competitions. In 1970 two pairs of sculls were supplied to Sidney Genders and were used to successfully row the Atlantic, later followed by Chay Blyth and John Ridgway (sailor). == The present day == Collars led the field of oar making until early 1980 when modern advances resulted in the introduction of a carbon fibre oar. Pioneered by the Dreissigacker brothers the new material provided a lighter and stronger oar, and by 1985 regular orders had dried up. Still providing recreational, specialist sculls and oars Collars were to move their primary focus to the yachting market that had been steadily growing in the background. With a change of hands and ownership the Collar brand is currently owned by Freeland Yacht Spar Limited based in Dorchester on Thames near Oxford, where a staff of 13 still produce wooden oars, masts and spars for yachts from all round the world. == Products == At present the company hand manufactures Masts and Spars for Yachts as well as a broad selection of standard and specialist wooden oars. Recently, the company has begun specialising in hand crafted Flag Poles. == References == == External links == * F Collar Category:Water sports equipment manufacturers Category:Companies based in Oxford Category:Sporting goods manufacturers of the United Kingdom Category:Manufacturing companies established in 1932 Category:British companies established in 1932

+F Company was an infantry company in the United States Army's 78th "Lightning" Division's second battalion of the 310th Infantry Regiment. The company was called Fox, which was the sixth letter in the phonetic alphabet used during World War II. The Company participated in three major campaigns: Rhineland, Ardennes-Alsace, and Central Europe. "Combat Diary for Company F, 310th Infantry, 78th Division," a 1947 book written by its members, recounts the wartime experiences of its members. == History == The first Fox Company soldiers arrived at Camp Butner in Butner, North Carolina, on March 9, 1944. On March 27, 1944, Fox Company departed for Camp Pickett in Nottoway County, Virginia. Pickett's land, water, and other resources were surveyed in late 1941; by the end of 1942, more than 1,400 buildings had been built and were in use, including approximately 1,000 enlisted barracks and 70 officer's quarters. Here at Camp Pickett, Fox Company was trained and prepared for combat by Captain John H. Sharp. == Composition == Fox Company was composed of a Company Headquarters, 3× Rifle Platoons, and a Weapons Platoon. Fox Company left the United States with 189 men; 454 men men are listed as having belonged to the company by the war's end, due to transfers and replacements. 53 men were killed in action, and 164 wounded in action. With a 47% casualty rate throughout their 125 days of combat.

Duncan == Battle of Kesternich == thumb|357x357px|Photo of Fox Company, Camp Pickett 1944 According to the overall Allied plan, the 9th Army was to break through the Cologne Plain, where the flat terrain was ideal for armored divisions to dash the Rhine. The north-flowing Roer River and the three big dams on the upper Roer near Schmidt were a barrier that had to be seized and held. The attack was on December 13 in the region of Lammersdorf. The first town that the Fox Company entered was Pastenbach; when they left on January 13, it was freezing, and the snow that had fallen three days earlier was frosted over and was deceptively thick. They settled in for the night after entering Simmerath further to the west. The Company was awakened by rifle fire early on December 14; patrols were organized and sent out to find the snipers, but to no avail. Captain John H. Sharp called his Platoon leaders, Lieutenants William J. Barton, Burrel B. Budden, Donald Horsch, and T-Sgt John D. Loos, and gave them the plan for the next move. With the first Platoon in reserve, the second Platoon was selected as the base platoon and launched. It was followed by the third—Company Headquarters—and fourth Platoon. The Company moved through a field to the west of Kesternich and took up position along a road that was submerged, providing protection from enemy fire. Fox reorganized rapidly and secured their position. All four Platoon leaders had become casualties. Sgts. Frank A. Leonard, Claude E. Blackwell, George A. Roman, and Horst took over the Platoons. As morning came on December 15, a much-depleted Fox Company of around seventy men moved towards Kesternich again. Fox advanced to an old sunken road bordered by more hedge-rows. They came upon the crest of a hill, and before Fox lay Kesternich. They continued into the town's outskirts after climbing a short slope. When they entered the village, they were surprised to be met with little to no small arms or artillery fire. Fox seized the target with minimal resistance.thumb|Cartoon by Pfc. Neil M. SharkeyAround 1300, Company "E" reached the eastern edge of Kesternich with less than half of its initial troop strength and made every effort to set up defenses. Company "G," also with significantly reduced strength, reorganized and managed to hold the town's center. At midnight on December 15, Lt. Col. Creighton E. Likes took over the 2nd Battalions, 309th and 310th Infantry. These battalions were to attack and take control of the town of Kesternich with a platoon of tanks and a platoon of tank destroyers attached. The attack started at 0700 hours in the early morning hours of December 15. Company F moved east and encountered a minefield near a pillbox that was neutralized earlier in the day. After avoiding the minefield, it moved south and into the town, where it encountered the same grueling house-to-house combat as Company G. Around 1400 hours, it had cleared the southern sector. At least 500 Volksgrenadiers participated in the German counter-attack on the 2nd Battalion, 310th Infantry, which started around 1615 and lasted until early December 16. In Fox's area of town, the counterattack lasted for about an hour and a half. After the Germans stopped firing, the men got back to work digging the foxholes. By the time Fox Company realized how serious the situation was, they were cut off from allied forces and surrounded by an enemy who had vowed to seize and hold this town at all costs. Eleven men were added as reinforcements around 1830, placing them on the far left. Around that time, Sgt. Isidor Tarnofsky reported to the C.P. that he had a minor injury to his left elbow but refused to be taken to the aid station. First Sergeant Albert J. Rosenblatt advised Isidor Tarnofsky to remain in the C. P. to ensure his safety. However, he disregarded this advice because he felt assisting his squad in reloading clips and magazines was necessary. When Tarnofsky returned, he started to lead his squad and carried out other duties; an immediate hit on his foxhole killed him, and Pfc Walter Trutko was seriously injured by the blast. For his actions, Isidor Tarnofsky would be awarded the Silver Star. With only two officers left, the NCOs took over many jobs besides their own. A meeting of all Platoon Sgts was called, and each Platoon was given a house to use as a perimeter defense and shelter from artillery and snipers. Fox quickly conducted a reconnaissance and discovered they were completely surrounded. The injured soldiers were cared for by Pfc. Joseph Saba, a mortar gunner, and former medic, as there was no conventional medical personnel available to help. Third Platoon, under the command of S-Sgt. Frank A. Leonard could not secure a house, so they decided to spend the night in their foxholes and assist in the defense from their positions. All the aid packs were used, as were old sheets and clothing discovered in nearby houses. After a fierce engagement, the First Platoon's troops were forced to retreat through the same route they had taken to approach the town after running into a dug-in machine gun nest. When German forces overcame the Second Platoon as it cleared out a house to its left, practically every member was killed, wounded, or taken prisoner. All the men who were not crippled searched every house for food because none was available. The Weapons Platoon chose to use the company C. P. as a shelter for some warmth and sleep, pausing to rub their feet to help prevent trench foot, which was increasingly common. In the C. P. cellar, an old well existed, and halazone tablets were used to make the water drinkable. Water like this kept Fox's soldiers alive throughout the struggle. The pears were rotten and full of shrapnel when they fell from the pear trees, which were located about 50 yards from the C. P. (then) Pfcs Dennis H. Keown and John W. Sansone crept out, picked up a few, put them in a burlap bag, and went back. The fruit was rotten, filthy, and partially frozen, yet to the famished soldiers, it tasted amazing. Later on in the day, Pfc. Saba discovered some dried veggies and cereals in an old barn. Each man was given a teaspoon of the stew that had been prepared. Every morning about daybreak, artillery — Allied and enemies- would fall into Fox Company's makeshift defense area. Nightly, two-man patrols were sent out to contact friendly forces, but although most of them got through safely, no one ever returned. Over half of the guys had trench foot, and their condition only deteriorated as time went on. The injured men had to crawl to their posts because they could not walk there. They could not put their shoes back on after taking them off since their feet were three times the size of the typical person's. To make matters worse, it was freezing, and no fires were authorized due to the possibility of enemy detection. By the fourth day, virtually every man had trench foot, and several were in excruciating pain and crying nonstop. A friendly patrol sent by Battalion C.P. in the late afternoon of December 19 came across Fox Company. T-Sgt. Wilbur Horst and Pfc. Ivan E. Eikenberry volunteered when Captain Sharp called for two volunteers for another patrol on the fifth day, December 20. In Battalion C. P., another patrol was forming in the meantime (then) T-5 Charles L. Chignoli, having heard the conversation, offered assistance and requested that a litter squad join the patrol. T-Sgt. Wilbur Horst arrived at Battalion C. P. and reported the hardships and problems the soldiers were facing. Horst then led a patrol toward the beleaguered Kesternich garrison, including Lt. Priener, 1st Sgt. Scurlock, T-5 Chignoli, and a litter squad. The patrol reached Fox Company at around 01:00. Early on December 21, a delighted but devastated Fox Company withdrew to Simmerath. The division had this to say about the heroic action of Fox's men: > "The courage with which these men continued to fight for six days without > food, water, or communications until rescued is a tribute to the tenacity of > 78th doughs." === Casualties === In 8 days of fighting, the 310th Infantry Regiment lost 542 soldiers, 63 enlisted personnel, and 6 officers Killed In Action. Five officers and 96 enlisted men suffered wounds. 13 officers and 284 enlisted men were Missing In Action. Trench-foot incapacitated 61 enlisted men and 1 officer, and 13 enlisted men were non-combat casualties (including Combat Fatigue). Fox Company suffered a staggering 95% casualty rate. 27 men were Killed In Action, the list is as follows, Pfc. Nevin C. Altfather, Pfc. Arthur J. Bean, Pfc. Gideon Bencohen, Pfc. William C. Berry, Pfc. Wilford M. Black, S/Sgt. Claude Blackwell, Pfc. Ovelo T. Blanchard, S/Sgt. Joseph Branck, 2nd Lt. Burrel B. Budden, Pfc. Herbert W. Chappel, Pfc. Robert H. Edelstein, Pvt. Alphonse Farris, Pfc. Robert c. Jacoby, Pfc. James T. Kirby, Pvt. Edward Kloosterman Jr., Pfc. John M. Letsos, Sgt. Robert Y. Lewis Jr., Pfc. Earl R. Lockerby, Pvt. Walter J. Massicotte, Pfc. James P. Parsons, Pfc. Arthur J. Richardson, Pvt. Samuel W. Richardson Jr., Pvt. Daniel J. Roeder, Pfc. Joseph P. Schlosser, Pfc. Russel P. Skorik, Sgt. Isidor Tarnofsky, Pfc. Walter S. Taylor. Of the Company men who had gone through the brutal 8-day battle of Kesternich, only eight men, 1st Sgt Rosenblatt, T-Sgt Horst, Sgts DiMarco, Clayton, Farnworth, and Pfcs Sharkey, Eikenberry, and Roberts, were able to go on. With a few Fox men who had not been through Kesternich, these eight men withdrew to Raeren Belgium, where S-Sgt Dallas E. Dimmer, the machine-gun section sergeant, received a Battlefield Commission. Fox Company departed for a bivouac site in Lammersdorf, Germany, on December 25. The Christmas spirit found its way to everyone in every foxhole. The division's commander, General Parker, delivered the following message to the soldiers: > "On this particular day, our thoughts go homeward, just as our people at > home are thinking of us. By our very presence here, amid the misfortunes > that are war, we have made and are making possible a peaceful Christmas in a > free land for our families back in America. We know that this cannot be a > Merry Christmas, in the true sense of the word, for us. Yet the same world > ills which brought the Star of Bethlehem into giving us inspiration for > successfully completing the duty before us. I join this day in what > Christmas means to each of us. Best wishes and good luck." == Roer river campaign == thumb|Cartoon by Pfc. Neil M. Sharkey Most of January 1945 was spent resting and participating in tank-Infantry training. On January 7, they departed Lammersdorf for Roetgen by truck, bouncing around the Monschau district until entering the Division reserve. Roetgen was the first German town under American control; Americans arrived in the village in September 1944. In Roetgen, the men got much-enjoyed visits by the Red Cross Club mobile, with donuts and coffee for everyone. It is here, too; the men got a chance to listen to some tunes by the Andrews Sisters; more importantly, though, the men could ease up, knowing they were safe from German shells. They left Roetgen via truck on January 20, 1945, and made it to Lammersdorf the same day. They only stayed briefly since that night; the men marched to Rollesbroich. The move from Rollesbroich was made the night of January 28; the weather was awful; it was bitter cold, and because of the snow drifts, the Company's supplies had to be pulled by sled. The Company arrived in Lammersdorf the same night, where it reorganized for further attacks against the enemy. Some men held up in an old Church were surprised the following day to see uninvited guests in the form of Germans praying in the same church. Fox Company didn't have to wait long to get an opportunity to engage the enemy; at 05:30 on January 30, the Company launched an offensive 2 miles east of Konzen, Germany. The men advanced, pushing through waist-deep snow drifts while carrying bandoleers, hand grenades, satchel charges, rocket shells, and Bangalore torpedoes. At the time of the attack, each man wore a white snowsuit. They quickly became so torn and ragged that they were more of a burden than an aid. The 1st Platoon was assigned four flame-throwing British Churchill tanks; however, mines destroyed these tanks at the first troop shelter. Tanks were also sent to the other Platoons, but they, too, were limited in action. At around 1000 hours, a blizzard arrived, freezing up practically every rifle and BAR in the Company, rendering them worthless. Despite the overwhelming odds, the Company managed to secure seven pillboxes, one troop shelter, an abandoned factory, and roughly 150 prisoners. The Company stayed at the factory it had captured that evening, January 30. However, nobody slept well that night; Only a tiny portion of the factory could only be used, and in the small spaces, the Company had to take turns sleeping. The Company began descending through the woods to Hammer on the Roer at 1530 on February 2, 1945. A six-man patrol was dispatched across the Roer to gather vital intelligence on the enemy, but it encountered strong opposition and was forced to turn around. Units of the 102nd Cavalry relieved the Company at Hammer, from where "F" Company boarded trucks and rode to Rollesbroich. left|thumb|Two GIs during the Battle of Schmidt|267x267px Early on February 9, the fox men were prepared to leave the positions, but they were instructed to return to their shelters and wait for further orders. After dinner, they quickly set out for a sugar beet farm from which they could view the devastated town of Schmidt. The German shells started thundering again as soon as the men began digging in the beet field. The Germans had heavily mined this region, and "Achtung, Minen!" signs were widespread. They remained in the field of beets until the next day when they left for Schmidt. As soon as the soldiers began to move, a battery of 81-Mm mortars unleashed a continuous stream of shells over their heads. After a bloody battle, other battalions of the Regiment broke through the highly defended northern end of the town, cleaned it out, and proceeded past. 500 German soldiers had been killed or captured or dispersed. The Company was stationed in the town's cellars and devastated homes. Lt. Richard M. Jones led the First Platoon, Lt. Dallas E. Dimmer led the Fourth, Lt. Richard Neuman led the Third, and Lt. Roger T. Duncan joined Fox Company. The Company's executive officer was Lt. Robert Tastor. Fox was then informed of the impending drive through the Cologne Plains, and the men underwent training in the woods southwest of Schmidt in Eicherscheid. In one of the training sessions, Lt. Bowman introduced a group of men who had distinguished themselves through outstanding initiative and bravery in the fighting that had taken place up to that point: "I am recommending Pfc George E. Hershberger for a Bronze Star for his high level of courage," S-Sgt Donald G. Warner ("Because of his small size, you would not judge him to be a real fighter, but do not underestimate him"), S-Sgt Leonard H. Hampton ("A humorous, good-natured fellow, but a real fighter"), and Pfc William C. Crates ("He can really lay down a stream of fire from his BAR"). Units of the 309th arrived at their objective, the massive Schwammanauel Dam, just before midnight on February 9. Examination revealed that the Dam had not undergone any demolitions. The Dam, erected in 1934 primarily for defensive reasons, is 188 feet in height and 1000 meters in width. The five-tiered earthen staircase is strengthened by a reinforced concrete core over 1000 feet thick at the base. The 22,000,000,000 gallons of backup water would have threatened any river crossing operation. All the settlements along the Roer from Heinbach to Doermund would have been submerged if the Germans had unleashed this mass of water, and anyone who tried to cross the river would commiting suicide. The sluiceway had a blown bridge just above it; the control houses had been obliterated. The reservoir was emptied, and the river's water level increased as water poured through the penstock and into the river. Nevertheless, the possibility of devastation and flooding was eliminated, and the Division achieved a goal that the American First Army and Ninth Army failed to accomplish in the Hurtgen Forest months before. Maj. Gen. C. R. Huebner, Commander of the V Corps, offered the Division kind praise after the capture of the Dam. "Although the 78th Infantry Division is relatively new in combat, you have given ample proof that in future operations, you will add new honors to those you have already achieved in this." thumb|327x327px|Aerial shot of the Rur Dam, Schwammenauel and Rur ReservoirIn one of his programs, the well-known radio commentator Gabriel Heattor spent considerable time complimenting the Division for "its wonderful successes." The Division's actions were featured in newspapers across the nation. The soldiers preparing to assault in the north would not be in danger if the Dam remained in Allied hands; and Fox Company was tasked with ensuring that the recently captured prize would remain in Allied hands. Therefore, they departed Schmidt on February 23 to establish themselves at the north end of the Dam. A portion of the Company functioned out of a once-beautiful restaurant; Fox men could undoubtedly imagine the public gatherings that must have occurred there during the peak of Nazism. Squads would swap turns watching over the tunnel house. The men examined the reservoir's water level every half-hour to provide crucial information to those preparing the major assault to their north. On February 23, the First and Ninth Armies launched a quick and effective advance across the Roer River and onto the Cologne Plains. == Roer to Rhine == thumb|2nd Lt. Hubert J. Arsenault receiving the Silver Star American tanks and infantry could stream into the Cologne plain thanks to American wins and advance in the Monschau region, near the Roer River, giving them a clear shot across the Rhine River, and into the heart of Germany. This thrust into German territory would include the 78th "Lightning" Division. On March 3, they left Mariawald Abbey and traveled toward Heimbach, which had been heavily bombarded. The Company established itself on the outskirts of the town. Because of broken water lines, the streets were overrun entirely with water. The next day, while still a part of Combat Command "A" of the 9th Armored Division, they left Vlatten. They started an arduous day-long forced march to the unopposed cities of Wollersheim, Embken, Fussenich, and Geich. The Company spent the entire night in Geich before departing again in the early hours of March 5. Euskirchen, a sizable city, had been captured by the Third Battalion. Without a struggle, Zulpich and Elsig were captured. Fox received an unexpected reward when many boxes of cookies were taken from a store. Units of the 9th Armored Division were being held up between the Erft canal and Kuchenheim town. Fox Company had trouble crossing the canal because the bridge had been destroyed, but they eventually made it to a large factory where they waited for the promised tank support. Despite waiting for almost an hour, no tanks appeared. Snipers appeared to be firing from workplaces, homes, and fields all around. The first and second platoons, the third on the right, and the fourth in support were to be in the attack on Kuchenheim. left|thumb|Kuchenheim|235x235px Lt. Bowman exclaimed, "The hell with the tanks; we will take this damn town without them!" There was just one route to the main point of resistance, about 200 yards over a wide-open field. A train track was on the left and parallel to their line of attack. Along this track, several enemies were dug in; Fox company suffered severe casualties before these threats were eliminated. A few yards from the factory, Lt. Roger T. Duncan was wounded. 2nd Platoon suffered significant casualties; Pfcs William T. Puhl and Daniel G. Dailey were fatally wounded, and S-Sgt Wade R. Peeler and Pfc Billie Brown were wounded during the opening exchanges of fire. Many members of the 1st Platoon were killed or wounded, Pfcs William C. Crates and Rosario J. Hussereau were killed, and S-Sgt Oren D. Armentrout, Cpl. Fredrick A. Crowthers, and T-5 Joseph Fanaras were wounded. T-5 Clarence F. Wells, a bazooka man lying flat on his stomach, had a bullet penetrate the front of his helmet, nick his wool hat, and emerge from the back of his helmet. Finally, T-5 Gilbert E. Wunrow could direct the tank support forward; they progressed for about 100 yards before stopping. They fired 75 mm rounds into the town's buildings to drive the snipers away. S-Sgt Edward M. Louchlin, Pfc Jamie E. Smith, and T-4 Charles E. Messick from the 3rd Platoon were also killed before the town was cleared. The beloved C. O. James K. Bowman, who was promoted to Captain that morning, was killed by a sniper's bullet from the town's right side. The men were incomprehensibly horrified since Lt. Bowman had personally commanded them through numerous days of combat; his heroic and daring leadership had been a role model to everyone. thumb|James K. Bowman's funeral Pfc George E. Hershberger informed Lieutenant Richard M. Jones that he was the new C. O. Despite their sadness over Lt. Bowman's passing, the men persisted. Sgt. Cook led his unit in clearing out several particularly challenging sniper locations, where two snipers were killed, and the same number were wounded. T/5 Joseph Fanaras controlled the first platoon's third squad as they neutralized snipers. By repeatedly launching 75 mm shells into the points of resistance, the Tank Destroyers made a significant contribution to the final clearing of the town. There would not be much time for relaxation, as they had to leave Kuchenheim and join the Battalion before nightfall. After passing through Wiedesheim and Odendorf, they arrived in Oberdress (taken by E Company and G Company). In Oberdress, the men relieved G Company personnel. Fox traveled from Oberdress to Rheinbach in the late afternoon of March 6, where they spent the night. On March 7, Fox Company, still a component of the 9th Armored, boarded half-tracks and began the arduous journey to Heimersheimm, Ersdorf, and Wormersdorf. Then Fox Company rode forward and seized the towns of Altendorf, Gelsdorf, Vettelhoven, Bolingen, Ringen, Bingen, Heppingen, and Gimmengen. == Remagen Bridgehead == thumb|The Ludendorff Bridge at Remagen from the east bank of the Rhine |left|243x243px Fox Company departed with a platoon of light tanks on March 8, 1945, with the assistance of a platoon of machine guns from How Company. Their objective was Lohndorf. The tanks caused significant damage to the German garrison, and allowed the town to be taken with little resistance. At this point, the men had no idea the Ludendorff bridge at Remagen, just 4 Miles north-west, was intact and captured just a day before by the 9th Armored Division. The 1st Battalion, 310th, started to cross at midnight on the 7th and continued into the morning of the 8th. On March 9, the Company returned to Heimersheim and awaited further instruction On March 10, shortly after midnight, they departed Heimersheim and traveled through Bodendorf's suburbs before arriving in Remagen. The Ludendorff Bridge, which for the next few days became the most famous structure on earth, loomed above. A shell struck the bridge's steel girders as the men approached the heavily bombed structure, sending countless sparks into the night sky.thumb|304x304px|"Tally-Ho" Newspaper page 1 From the bridge, they made a right and traveled three-quarters of a mile to Kasbach along a road that ran along the river's edge. They were to follow another unit into Ohlenberg, and wait for orders there. The company launched its mission once again on March 11 in the morning. Despite being a small town, Kretzhaus was meaningful because it provided access to the famed Autobahn. The men struggled through the rain while carrying spools of wire and ammo. They kept moving towards the assembly area in a wooded area where each company prepared for the assault on Dustemich Hill and Kretzhaus Junction . The company started to advance, and the enemy launched round after round of heavy artillery at Fox to push them back across the river, and casualties were immediate. T-5 Gherkins (Med Det) and Pfc Watson from the Second Platoon were hit, and a few minutes later, Pfc's William D. Rose, Hewitt J. Saucier, Onnie D. Cooley, Benito H. Benavidez, and Albert H. Kitchen also suffered injuries. Dustemich Hill finally collapsed, and E Company dug in on its peaks; this was a substantial advantage because it permitted excellent observation of Kretzhaus and the surrounding area. The assault was scheduled for March 12, early in the morning. As Fox Company prepared to attack Kretzhaus, G Company was supposed to seize 500 yards of strategically important ground to the north-west of the target. Fox then moved forward along the road for about 300 yards before what first appeared to be a bank of dirt revealed itself as a Tiger tank, which began spewing shells. The Germans rained down "88's" to push back the armor. The attack stopped in a sizable wooded area in front of the target, primarily made up of a sawmill and several houses. The company encountered heavy artillery bombardments, cross- fire from machine guns, and direct tank fire. Shells were bursting all around Lts. Richard M. Jones and Richard E. Neuman, Sgts. Whiteside, Donald G. Warner, Otties L. Zigler, and Pfc. Leonard Blitz as they were pinned down behind a pile of lumber. Surprisingly, nobody was hurt. A shell from an enemy tank was fired through a sawmill as some of the Fourth Platoon advanced toward it. They held out for about three hours before the enemy artillery worsened. The enemy attack, which consisted of 4 tanks and a Company, was driven off, but Fox withdrew to more favorable positions. The Company withdrew to the railroad spur and dug in; only about 50 men were left. The price was high: in the fierce fighting, Pfcs Federico Gurterrez, Gilbert A. Sandoval, Julious C. Pack, Harold I Hope, Clifford B. Kruse, Albert J. Harvin, Carl J. Katscha, Milton H. Roberts, Herbert W. Shwenk, Scott, Cecil O. Grabe, Gerald F. Gardner, Cook, T-4 Vincent J. Manganaro, and T-5 Herbert Ferdman (Med Det) were all wounded. Pfc John Maskell Jr. was killed while giving medical attention to T-5 Herbert Ferdman. == End of WWII == thumb|286x286px|"Tally- Ho" Newspaper page 2|left The following day, March 13, the Company stayed put and awaited new orders. S-Sgt. Alma R. Farnworth's return and the arrival of fresh troops strengthened the Company. The bridgehead had grown to cover 100 square miles by March 17. The main crossing points could no longer be effectively fired upon by enemy artillery. On March 17, Fox left and, after an arduous march, entered Ittenbach, a town with a view of the Autobahn, where they relieved an armored unit. The men joined the 2nd Battalion that night after being relieved by the 1st Division and about 1800 yards northwest of Ittenbach. Fox left the following morning for Oberdollendorf on the Rhine (March 20). The men were exhausted from the long march to the city, but the "spirits" of the area soon lifted their spirits because everyone could indulge in the city's abundance of wine, champagne, cognac, and whiskey. Fox Company then got a new C.O., Captain William Edmunds, the former C.O. of A Company. Around three the following day, the Company started moving toward Neiderpleis, a sizable town before Siegburg. They encountered several small farming settlements along the way, and they all quickly fell. On March 28, Lt. Jones became the Executive Officer of E Company. The Company moved to front-line locations with a clear view of Siegburg at Vilich-Muldorf and Meindorf . The majority of the men attended church on Easter Sunday. A round shrieked down on the church as the men emerged, indicating that the Germans must have heard from the population that they were inside. thumb|300x300px|"Tally-Ho" Newspaper page 3There was yet another advancement on April 5. The First Platoon's task was to clear Katzwinkle, while the other platoons were tasked with securing the high ground on both sides of the town. The missions were completed following an intense firefight. The enemy resisted vigorously, and much of the fighting occurred through densely forested terrain, making the going challenging. The men dug in, prepping defenses despite the heavy rain. Sgt. Harry Gales was hurt while attending to a wounded friend. The First Platoon front was the target of a significant enemy counterattack the following morning at 7:20. The friendly medic "Mike" Murphy, and Pfcs John N. Hill, Lynn C. Hancock, and Cpl. Fred B. Bigbee were killed. "Mike" had earned the respect of the men at Fox Company. On many occasions, the glum foot soldiers were cheered up by his heavy Irish accent. His tireless efforts in caring for the injured men were respected and admired. T-3 (then T-4) Louis C. Chignoli's medical staff did an excellent job overall. Cpl Dominic Benedetti and Pfcs. J.G "Doc" Brown and Archie E. French, Greatly aided the numerous accomplishments of the company. The following day, April 7, Fox continued and arrived a few yards south of Friesenhagen, where they spent the following two days in front-line positions. Fox relocated to Windenburg on the same day; where they went into Battalion reserve. The men anticipated staying for a short while, but the following day, as usual, they were once more on the move, this time to Wieferstine. A platoon of light tanks from the 774th Tank Battalion, led by Lt. Bowen, joined the Company at Wieferstine. They then continued through a wooded area, where they managed to capture Unt, Obr Nadrigen, and Woldsberg. On April 16, Fox Company took part in the Ruhr pocket's closure and seized Wuppertal. In the remainder of April through May 8, when the war in Europe came to an end, Fox Company took part in the occupation of the newly captured regions. == Company newspaper == During the occupation of Germany, Fox Company became the first company in the 310th Infantry regiment to publish regiment-wide newspapers, named the "Tally-Ho newspaper." The first paper was published on June 21, 1945. Captain Richard M. Jones had this message to tell the men.thumb|Capt. Richard M. Jones|left|387x387px > FROM THE C. O.

+The Bayer designation f Cygni is shared by two stars in the constellation Cygnus: *f1 Cygni, a Be star *f2 Cygni, a K-type supergiant Cygni, f Category:Cygnus (constellation)
+f Eridani is a binary, or possibly a triple, star system in the equatorial constellation of Eridanus, consisting of stars HD 24071 and HD 24072. They share a single Hipparcos catalogue entry, HIP 17797, but have separate Bright Star Catalogue listings, HR 1189 and 1190. f Eridani is the Bayer designation of the pair. f Eridani is visible to the naked eye as a single star with a magnitude of 4.25. HD 24071 has an apparent visual magnitude of 5.25 and HD 24072 a magnitude of 4.72. As of 2009, the pair had an angular separation of along a position angle of 216°. Both stars have an annual parallax shift , which provides a distance estimate to the system of 173 light years. The pair are members of the Tucana-Horologium moving group, a 45 million year old set of stars that share a common motion through space. The brighter component, HD 24072, is a B-type main-sequence star with a classification of B9.5 Van. The n suffix indicates "nebulous" absorption lines which are caused by its rapid rotation. It has a projected rotational velocity of 225 km/s. HD 24071 may itself be a spectroscopic binary. The visible component is an A-type main- sequence star with a stellar classification of A1 Va. It is a suspected variable star of unknown type showing an amplitude of 0.05 magnitude, and is a source of X-ray emission, which may originate from a companion of class G2-5V. ==References== Category:Eridanus (constellation) Eridani, f Category:Durchmusterung objects 024071/2 017797 1189/90 Category:Suspected variables Category:Binary stars
+F Goldsmith (Sicklesmere) Ltd v Baxter [1970] 1 Ch 85 was a judicial decision under United Kingdom company law relating to the proper identification of a corporate party to a contract. ==Facts== F Goldsmith (Sicklesmere) Ltd sold a piece of land to the Mr Baxter. The memorandum of agreement gave the name of the plaintiff company, inaccurately, as Goldsmith Coaches (Sicklesmere) Ltd. There was, in fact, no such company by that name. Then Mr Baxter changed his mind and did not wish to complete. The question was whether, although the contract used the wrong name for the company, the agreement could nevertheless be enforced. ==Judgment== Stamp J made an order for specific performance against Mr Baxter. Looking at the surrounding circumstances, there could be only one company, which could be clearly identified, which was party to the contract, and reference to it by an inaccurate name did not render the contract void. It was "no more nor less than an inaccurate description" (at 91G) of the company, but it was still entirely clear from the surrounding factual circumstances that it was the company who was the other party to the contract. ==Significance== Although F Goldsmith (Sicklesmere) Ltd v Baxter is only a first instance decision, it has become a widely used precedent in situations where the name of a company has been misspelled or otherwise misidentified in a contract or other undertaking. It was most recently cited by the English Court of Appeal with approval in . ==See also== *UK company law ==Notes== Category:United Kingdom company case law Category:High Court of Justice cases Category:1970 in United Kingdom case law
