The Basin is a suburb in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia, 31 km east of Melbourne's Central Business District, located within the City of Knox local government area. The Basin recorded a population of 4,497 at the 2021 census.

History

Traditional custodians
Prior to European settlement, The Basin and surrounding suburbs were often visited by the Bunurong and Yarra Yarra people—hunting in the summer months in the Dandenong Ranges and its foothills. The Wurundjeri people of the Kulin nation are the acknowledged traditional custodians of the land on which The Basin and all of City of Knox is located (source: City of Knox publication).

Origin of the name
The Government Botanist Ferdinand von Mueller named the area The Basin about 1860 during a visit to the Dandenong Ranges because it is located in a "basin" surrounded by hills. (source: Knox Historical Society) "The Basin" is shown on an 1868 survey plan, when settlers had taken licences or made freehold purchases of the land.

Early European settlers
William Peverill Watson is recorded as being the first official occupier of land in the area now known as The Basin in 1867. David Dobson arrived in Melbourne in 1854 and settled at The Basin as early as 1870 on land that extended from what is now Wicks Reserve through to Pavitt Lane bordered by Sheffield Road, Mountain Highway and Liverpool Road. David Dobson was instrumental in the establishment of The Basin Primary School. The Dobson family still occupies 60 acres of that original land.

Other significant early European settlers included the Chandler family. William Chandler was a market gardener who arrived in Victoria in 1854 and eventually settled in The Basin in 1873. He was the first in the area to crossbreed seeds and produce exceptional flowers and vegetables. William and Kate Chandler planted an acorn soon after they settled in The Basin—the English Oak still stands (source—historical marker). Two of William Chandler's sons established plant nurseries in the area and his grandson, Sir Gilbert Chandler was a horticulturalist and Fern Tree Gully Shire President (1938–39) who later went on to be a member of State Parliament.

Notable settlers included J.J. Miller, book-maker and publisher of Miller's Racing Guide. In 1872, Miller acquired land at The Basin in 1872 and invested considerable time and money building up a stud farm for racing horses, at one stage owning over  in The Basin. To encourage summer tourists to visit and see the stables, training facilities and horses, Miller ran a private coach service from Forest Road in The Basin to Bayswater Railway Station. He also helped publicise the district with a gigantic fireworks display each Christmas. Miller was prominent in local affairs and was the first President of the new Shire of Fern Tree Gully. In 1888, Miller was the first in the area to secure a wine licence at his home. Miller faced financial ruin in the 1890s when the sweepstakes were declared illegal and he had to give up his property at The Basin. The home remains as a significant local historical building.

The Basin Post Office opened around 1902.

Government

Residents are represented in the Victorian Parliament (Legislative Assembly) by the member for the electorate of Bayswater and in the Federal Parliament (House of Representatives) by the member for the electorate of Aston.

Media

The Boronia and The Basin Community Newspaper (BBCN) is produced and distributed each month by local volunteers. It focuses on local stories and history, including feature articles on immigrants' stories and local businesses.

Parks and gardens

The Basin forms one of Melbourne's "green wedges" and is nestled into the forest covered foothills of Mount Dandenong and the Dandenong Ranges National Park, including Doongalla Forest. This was formerly part of the Doongalla Estate, purchased by Sir Matthew Davies in 1891. The residential development of the suburb includes bushy parks such as Wicks Reserve and some farmland.

A significant natural resource is an operating farm that is owned and operated by the Salvation Army and includes a community church. The farm was purchased by the Salvation Army from David Dobson and others in 1897. In the same year a boys' home was established on the purchased land, in response to a government request for church groups to support boys who commit criminal offences. The home was originally named "The Eden". At its height, it provided for 110 boys (source: historical marker). The Salvation Army's site on Basin Olinda Road, The Basin is used for school camps, conferences and functions.

Important buildings include the Progress Hall and Elderly Citizens Hall. Both are located within "The Basin Triangle", which also includes a Scouts hall, The Basin Fire Brigade (CFA) facility, a children's playground and open space.

Transport

Mountain Highway runs through The Basin to Sassafras. It is a challenging and popular cycling route for people in Melbourne.

The Basin-Olinda Road is a mostly unsealed road that leads to the mountain town of Olinda.

Bus route 755 runs from The Basin to local train stations at Bayswater, Boronia and Ferntree Gully.

Education

The suburb has three primary schools:
 The Basin Primary School. The original school building is used today to house the administration offices of the school.
 St Bernadette's Catholic Primary school. The school opened on Wednesday 2 February 1983. The land had been purchased many years earlier in anticipation of the need for a Catholic School.

There are two pre-schools—The Basin Pre-school (Forest Road) and Goodwin Estate pre-school (Rome Beauty Avenue)

Retail

There are various shops and restaurants fronting two sides of The Basin Triangle, amidst a village atmosphere. Retail outlets include a gym, a licensed post office, two pubs, cafés, liquor store, greengrocer, jeweller, butcher, financial advisor, wine bar/restaurant, bookstore, dog training gear, nursery/gift shop, hairdressing salons, fish and chips and tattoo shop/gallery.

Culture and community

The Basin Theatre Group is a local amateur theatre group that has operated since the first gathering of friends by Edna Chandler in 1954. Early productions were first conducted in the Basin Progress Hall. In 1962 the group constructed an A-frame barn that became known as The Hut. Later in 1973, the group constructed a larger theatre on land donated by Edna and Fergus Chandler. The group conducts four productions per year that include a range of performances in all theatrical styles. The Basin Theatre Group's mission is to provide a variety of theatrical productions that are high quality and affordable, and at times, extraordinary and inspiring. Details of productions and booking information can be found on The Basin Theatre Website.

Local groups include the Country Fire Authority and The 1st Basin Scout Group.

The inaugural The Basin Music Festival was held in March 2005 and is held annually every March. Details of musicians and tickets can be found at The Basin Music Festival website.

Places of Worship in The Basin include the Romanian Seventh-day Adventist Church, St Bernadette's Catholic Mass Centre (part of the primary school) and Vinayagar Hindu Temple.

The Knox library has operated a mobile library service for The Basin since 1985. The mobile library stops outside the Basin Shops twice a week. Its collection includes a selection of audio, large print, children's and young adult books.

Sport

The town has two tennis clubs; Miller Park Tennis Club and Batterham Park Tennis Club, and Australian Rules football team, The Basin Bears, competing in the Eastern Football League.

În 1912 împreună cu Mihály Pogány, redactorul ziarului în limba maghiară "Temesvári Hirlap", Kastriener a înființat tipografia modernă Hunyadi din orașul natal, care a publicat cărți în ediții îngrijite din punct de vedere estetic.
Apreciat ca ziarist și ca personalitate în viața multiculturală și socială a Timișoarei, Kastriener s-a afirmat și ca un reprezentant de frunte al comunității evreiești din localitate. Alături de dr.

22q11-heilkenni er litningagalli sem er afar lítil úrfelling úr litningi 22. Úrfellingin er á litlu svæði (e. microdeletion), svæði 11Q á lengri armi litnings 22. Heilkennið hefur verið kallað ýmsum nöfnum svo sem DiGeorge heilkenni eða CATCH 22.

Heilkenninu er fyrst lýst árið 1829 en þá  lýsti læknir ungbarni sem virðist vanta hóstarkirtil. Árið 1965 lýsti barnalæknirinn Angelo DiGeorge þremur ungbörum sem vantaði bæði hóstarkirtil og kalkkirtla. Heilkennið var þá  kallað DiGeorge heilkennni. Kalkkirtla vantaði í suma einstaklinga með heilkennið og því mældist hjá þeim lækkað kalk í blóði.  Börn með heilkennið gátu verið með hjartagalla og ákveðin sérkenni í andlitsfalli og stundum með klofinn góm.

Árið 1993 var lagt til að kalla heilkennið CATCH 22 sem er skammstöfun á nokkrum einkennum en það þótti ekki henta vel vegna þess að þessi orð hafa þegar ákveðna merkingu í ensku, merkingu sem er ekkert tengd heilkenninu. Nú er því oftast notað á ensku heitið 22q11 deletion syndrome  eða 22qDS eða
22q11DS yfir heilkennið  sem þýða mætti á íslensku sem  22q11 úrfellinga-heilkenni.
Skammstöfunin CATCH 22 er svona uppbyggð:
Cardial anomaly (hjartagalli)
Abnormal facies (sérkenni í andlitsfalli)
T-frumuskortur vegna þess að hóstarkirtil vantar
Cleft palate (klofinn gómur)
Hypocalcaemia (lækkun á kalki í blóði vegna þess að starfsemi kalkkirtils er skertur)
22 litningur 22

A múmia da Caverna do Espírito é a múmia humana mais antiga encontrada na América do Norte. Foi descoberto em 1940 na Caverna do Espírito,  leste de Fallon, Nevada, Estados Unidos, pela equipe arqueológica de marido e mulher de Sydney e Geórgia Wheeler. Dizia-se que ele tinha quarenta anos quando morreu. A análise dos restos mortais mostrou semelhanças com os povos indígenas da América do Norte e do Sul e, em 2016, os restos mortais foram repatriados para a tribo Fallon Paiute-Shoshone de Nevada. A múmia da Caverna do Espírito foi uma das primeiras a usar datação por radiocarbono por espectrômetro de massa acelerado. Por sua vez, sua descoberta e análise forneceram muitos insights e motivaram novas pesquisas sobre a cronologia da Grande Bacia ocidental.

Descoberta

Os Wheelers, trabalhando para a Comissão de Parques do Estado de Nevada, estavam pesquisando possíveis sítios arqueológicos para evitar sua perda devido à mineração de guano. Ao entrar na Caverna do Espírito, eles descobriram os restos mortais de duas pessoas envoltos em esteiras de tule. Um conjunto de restos mortais, enterrado mais fundo que o outro, foi parcialmente mumificado (a cabeça e o ombro direito). Este indivíduo parcialmente mumificado (atual múmia da Caverna do Espírito) foi encontrado usando mocassins e envolto em um cobertor de pele de coelho quando foi colocado para descansar. Os Wheelers, com a ajuda de residentes locais, recuperaram um total de sessenta e sete artefatos da caverna.

Esses artefatos foram examinados no Museu do Estado de Nevada, onde foram inicialmente estimados entre 1.500 e 2.000 anos de idade. Eles foram depositados no depósito do museu em Carson City, onde permaneceram pelos próximos cinquenta e quatro anos.

Caverna do Espírito
A Caverna do Espírito está a uma altitude de 4.154 pés no sopé das montanhas Stillwater; o Refúgio Nacional de Vida Selvagem de Stillwater está agora estabelecido nesta área. A localização é a nordeste de Fallon, Nevada. Semelhanças biológicas entre os restos mortais encontrados na Caverna do Espírito mostraram uma associação inegável com restos dispersos por uma ampla localização geográfica, como o enterro do cachorro da Caverna Wizard e o homem da praia Wizard.

Cetotherium foi um dos primeiros membros dos Mysticeti, que são mais comumente conhecidos como baleias de barbatanas. As primeiras baleias eram predadores que tinham dentes pontiagudos para capturar e matar outras criaturas marinhas, como peixes e até outros mamíferos. Baleias posteriores, como Cetotherium, se diversificaram para aproveitar uma fonte alternativa de alimento e desenvolveram barbatanas para retirar pequenos organismos da água. Embora pequenos, esses organismos teriam sido capturados em quantidades tais que forneceriam amplo sustento para uma criatura tão grande. Devido à sua preferência alimentar, Cetotherium teria ficado bem perto da superfície do oceano onde estaria sua principal fonte de alimento. No entanto, apesar de seu tamanho, este era um nível de água muito perigoso devido à presença de predadores verdadeiramente gigantescos como o tubarão megalodon e até mesmo outras baleias como Livyatan. Danos de compressão nas vértebras de algumas baleias sugerem fortemente que esses predadores mergulhariam fundo e então olhariam para cima em sua presa alvo, que teria sido recortada contra a luz da superfície.

Sir Neil Elliott Lewis, né le  à Hobart et mort le  dans cette même ville, est un homme politique australien, Premier ministre de Tasmanie et brièvement membre du premier gouvernement fédéral australien.

Biographie

Débuts
Bénéficiaire d'une bourse d'études au mérite, il part en Angleterre et obtient un diplôme de droit de Balliol College à l'université d'Oxford et au Inner Temple ; il est appelé au barreau d'Angleterre en 1883, puis admis au barreau de Tasmanie lorsqu'il retourne à son pays natal en 1885. Il s'y établit comme barrister (avocat), se spécialisant en droit constitutionnel.

En juillet 1886 il est élu député de Richmond à l'Assemblée de Tasmanie. De 1892 à 1894 il est procureur général de Tasmanie dans le gouvernement de . De 1894 à 1897 il est le chef de l'opposition parlementaire à l'Assemblée. Partisan de l'unification des six colonies britanniques en Australie en une fédération, il prend part à la convention fédérale australasienne de 1897-1898, et il fait campagne avec succès pour l'adoption par référendum en Tasmanie de la proposition de Constitution de l'Australie.

Premier ministre de Tasmanie
En octobre 1899, le gouvernement tasmanien d' perd la confiance de l'Assemblée et, sur proposition du chef de l'opposition , Elliott Lewis est élu Premier ministre de Tasmanie. À l'âge de 40 ans, il est alors le plus jeune à occuper cette fonction, mais peine à résoudre les difficultés financières de la Tasmanie. Respecté néanmoins par des adversaires pour son caractère agréable et son esprit civique, il n'est pas un bon orateur, gêné par une nervosité qu'il ne parvient jamais pleinement à surmonter.

Le , jour de naissance de l'Australie fédérale, il est ministre sans portefeuille dans le gouvernement fédéral protectionniste que mène Edmund Barton, où il est inclus comme représentant de la Tasmanie. Il choisit toutefois de conserver la direction du gouvernement tasmanien, et ne se présente pas aux premières élections législatives fédérales, en mars 1901. La Constitution disposant que seul un député ou sénateur fédéral peut être ministre du gouvernement fédéral, il quitte le gouvernement d'Australie pour se consacrer à la Tasmanie, désormais l'un des États de la fédération. Il est fait compagnon de l'ordre de Saint-Michel et Saint-Georges en 1901, puis chevalier commandeur de cet ordre en 1902.

Son gouvernement étant perçu comme ayant mal géré la situation économique, il perd son siège à l'Assemblée de Tasmanie aux élections de 1903, ce qui fait de lui le seul dirigeant de Tasmanie à avoir été battu dans sa circonscription lors d'élections législatives de cet État. Son groupe parlementaire conservateur perd par ailleurs ces élections, et Elliott Lewis perd le pouvoir. Il retrouve un siège à l'Assemblée en 1909 comme candidat du Parti anti-socialiste. Les conservateurs et les libéraux forment alors un gouvernement de coalition et portent Elliott Lewis au pouvoir en juin. Dès octobre, toutefois, le libéral  parvient à faire adopter une motion de défiance à son encontre à l'Assemblée. Le travailliste  forme alors brièvement un gouvernement minoritaire, avant qu'Elliott Lewis le fasse déchoir par l'Assemblée et retrouve le pouvoir. N'étant pas soutenu par les libéraux, Lewis démissionne après les élections de 1912.

Il est ministre des Finances dans le gouvernement libéral et conservateur tasmanien de Sir  d'avril 1916 à mars 1922. Chancelier de l'université de Tasmanie de 1924 à 1933, après sa retraite politique il se consacre au plaisir de la randonnée pédestre, et demeure capable au-delà de ses 70 ans de gravir le sentier de randonnée du mont Field. Il meurt subitement à son domicile en 1935, après s'être plaint d'une fatigue soudaine.

Pyramidelloidea es una superfamilia de caracoles de mar. En su mayoría son muy pequeños y se incluyen entre ellos moluscos gasterópodos marinos y micromoluscos dentro del clado Panpulmonata.

Se trata de un taxón voluminoso por encima del nivel de especie, cerca de 400 taxones hacen referencia a esta superfamilia de gasterópodos.

Pyramidelloidea tiene tanto miembros de fósiles y recientes. Ellos viven como ectoparásitos en los moluscos bivalvos y gusanos poliquetos, y tienen un estilete agudo y punzante en lugar de una rádula.

Max the Mighty is a young adult novel by Rodman Philbrick. Published in 1998, it is the sequel to Freak the Mighty.

Plot
Max Kane helps Rachel, nicknamed "Worm" because of her love of reading, run away from her overly religious and abusive stepfather, whom Max nicknames "The Undertaker" because he drives a hearse and wears black clothing. The Undertaker accuses Max of kidnapping Worm, so Max and Worm run away with Dippy Hippie on his bus, the Prairie Schooner. Along the way, they meet two con artists, Frank and Joanie, who read about Max and Worm and a money reward for finding them. Frank then tries to turn them in, and Max and Worm have to leave the Prairie Schooner. To take them the rest of the way they hop a train with Hobo Joe and arrive in Chivalry, Montana on a different train. They go into a mining tunnel and Max discovers that Worm's birth father had died in a mining accident. The Undertaker arrives there with the police and Max and Worm run away in the tunnels. They meet Dip, and Max's grandfather, Grim. The police catch them, and Worm runs back into the tunnel. She thinks about committing suicide to be with her father and away from her stepfather, but Max talks her out of it. A support beam in the mine falls over, pinning the Undertaker to the ground. This prompts Worm to finally confront the Undertaker about all the abuse he has been doing to her and her mother, revealing the truth to the police. Before anything else can happen, the mine starts to collapse, forcing everybody to run for the exit. However, Max cannot bear to leave the Undertaker behind, even after everything he's done, so he lifts up the beam to free the Undertaker. The Undertaker gets out of the mine in time, but Max couldn't. Fortunately, emergency services manage to rescue Max, who winds up with a broken shoulder and a broken leg as a result. Afterward, Worm's mother finally works up the courage to stand up to her abusive husband and testify about what really happened, getting the Undertaker convicted of domestic abuse and locked up in prison for a long time. The book ends with Max and his grandparents insisting that Worm and her mother live with them, which they gladly do. Max frequently mentions his old friend Kevin, also nicknamed Freak, throughout the book.

The Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-3 () is a Soviet fighter-interceptor used during World War II. It was a development of the MiG-1 by the OKO (opytno-konstruktorskij otdel — Experimental Design Department) of Zavod (Factory) No. 1 in Moscow to remedy problems found during the MiG-1's development and operations. It replaced the MiG-1 on the production line at Factory No. 1 on 20 December 1940 and was built in large numbers during 1941 before Factory No. 1 was converted to build the Ilyushin Il-2.

On 22 June 1941, at the beginning of Operation Barbarossa, some 981 were in service with the Soviet Air Forces (VVS), the Soviet Air Defence Forces (PVO) and Soviet Naval Aviation. The MiG-3 was difficult to fly in peacetime and much more so in combat. Originally designed as a high-altitude fighter-interceptor, combat over the Eastern Front was generally at lower altitudes, where it was inferior to the German Messerschmitt Bf 109 as well as most of its Soviet contemporaries. It was also pressed into service as a fighter-bomber during the autumn of 1941 but it was equally unsuited for this. The losses suffered in combat were very high, in percentage the highest among all the VVS fighters, with 1,432 shot down. The survivors were concentrated in the PVO, where its disadvantages mattered less, the last being withdrawn from service before the end of the war.

Development
The large number of defects noted during flight testing of the MiG-1 forced Mikoyan and Gurevich to make a number of modifications to the design. Testing was done on a full-size aircraft in the T-1 wind tunnel belonging to the Central Aero and Hydrodynamics Institute (TsAGI) to evaluate the problems and their proposed solutions. The first aircraft to see all of these changes applied was the fourth prototype of the I-200. It first flew on 29 October 1940 and was approved for production after passing its State acceptance trials. The first MiG-3, as the improved aircraft was named on 9 December, was completed on 20 December 1940 and another 20 were delivered by the end of the year.

These changes included:
 The engine was moved forward 100 mm (4 in) to improve longitudinal stability.
 A new water radiator (OP-310) was fitted
 The first two modifications allowed an additional  fuel tank to be fitted underneath the pilot's seat.
 The outer wing panel dihedral was increased by one degree to increase lateral stability.
 An additional oil tank was mounted under the engine.
 Piping was fitted to use cooled inert exhaust gasses in the fuel tanks to reduce the chance of fire.
 The back of the pilot's seat was armored with an  plate (increased to  in later models).
 The supercharger intakes were streamlined.
 The main landing gear was strengthened and the size of the main wheels was increased to 650 x 200 mm (25.5 x 7.87 in).
 The canopy glazing was extended aft to improve the view to the rear which allowed for the installation of a shelf behind the pilot for an RSI-1 radio (later upgraded to an RSI-4).
 The instrument panel layout was improved and a PBP-1A gunsight replaced the original PBP-1.
 Ammunition for the ShKAS guns was increased to 750 rounds per gun.
 Two additional underwing hardpoints were added to carry up to 220 kg (485 lb) of bombs, spray containers or RS-82 rockets.

State acceptance testing of two production aircraft was conducted between 27 January and 26 February 1941. They were found to be over  heavier than the MiG-1, which reduced maneuverability and field performance. Time to  decreased by over a minute and the service ceiling proved to be  less. The MiG-3 was faster at sea level and at altitude. While the ranges reached by both aircraft were farther than that of the older aircraft, they were still less than the  required. Mikoyan and Gurevich protested against the range results as their calculations showed that the MiG-3 could reach  based on a specific fuel consumption (SFC) of 0.46 kg/km (1.64 lb/mile). During the State acceptance trials the SFC was 0.48 kg/km (1.71 lb/mile) but the operational trials conducted earlier showed a SFC of 0.38 kg/km (1.35 lb/mile). They blamed the deficiency on a failure to use an altitude correction and that the engines had not been properly adjusted. They went as far as arranging for two more flights between Leningrad and Moscow to prove that the MiG-3 could fly 1,000 km (621 mi). Two production aircraft were flown on ranges of  and , flying at 90% of maximum speed and at an altitude of , contradicting the report of the NII VVS (Naoochno-Issledovatel'skiy Institoot Voyenno-Vozdooshnykh Seel—Air Force Scientific Test Institute).

Despite the teething problems with the MiG-3, in 1941, one of the aircraft's designers—Mikhail Gurevich—was awarded the State Stalin Prize for his contribution to Soviet aviation.

A number of reports had been received about poor quality aircraft received by the regiments which pointed directly at the NII VVS as it was responsible for monitoring the quality of the aircraft delivered to the VVS. On 31 May 1941 the People's Commissariat of Defense decreed that the NII VVS had been negligent. A number of senior managers were demoted and the head of the Institute, Major General A. I. Filin was summarily executed.

A number of MiG-3s were found to have unacceptable performance at high altitudes despite having been designed as a high-altitude interceptor. The oxygen supply was often insufficient and the stall and spin characteristics were very dangerous, especially to inexperienced pilots. This was demonstrated on 10 April 1941 when three pilots of the 31st Fighter Regiment of the Air Defenses (IAP PVO) attempted to intercept a German high-altitude reconnaissance aircraft over Kaunas, Lithuania flying at . All three aircraft entered irrecoverable spins and the pilots were forced to bail out, one being killed. The NII VVS sent an engineer to investigate and he found that the pilots had flown very few hours on the MiG-3 and that that was their first high-altitude sortie. Other problems included insufficient fuel and oil pressure at altitude due to problems with the pumps.

Comparison with other fighters
The MiG-3's top speed of  at  was faster than the  of the German Messerschmitt Bf 109F-2 in service at the beginning of 1941 and the British Supermarine Spitfire V's . At lower altitudes the MiG's speed advantage disappeared as its maximum speed at sea level was only  while the Bf 109F-2 could do . Unfortunately for the MiG-3 and its pilots, aerial combat over the Eastern Front generally took place at low and medium altitudes where it had no speed advantage.

The MiG's loaded weight of  was greater than the Bf 109F-2's  and it was less maneuverable in the horizontal plane than the Bf 109 due to its higher wing loading. This lack of maneuverability was exacerbated by the MiG-3's poor climb performance, its instability at high speeds (which can make aerial gunnery difficult due to the point of aim "wandering" and requiring constant pilot input to remain on target), and its underpowered armament.

The MiG-3's standard armament was one  UBS machine gun and two  ShKAS machine guns, all mounted in the engine cowling and synchronized to fire through the propeller arc. In contrast, most versions of the German Messerschmitt Bf 109 that it encountered had one  cannon and two  machine guns (although the Bf 109F used during Operation Barbarossa had a 15 mm MG 151/15, meaning that it was armed little better than the MiG). To remedy this problem, 821 aircraft were built with one 12.7 mm UBK machine gun in a pod under each wing in mid-1941. This lowered its speed by about  at all altitudes, which was unpopular with the pilots, some of whom removed the pods. One hundred aircraft were equipped with a pair of UBS machine guns in lieu of the ShKAS weapons. Another 215 aircraft also had just the UBS machine guns but were fitted to carry six RS-82 rockets. A total of 72 aircraft mounted a pair of 20 mm ShVAK cannon. A wide variety of armaments were experimented with by various units at the requests of their pilots or to make up shortages.

Production
The NKAP (Narodnyy komissariat aviatsionnoy promyshlennosti—People's Commission of the Aircraft Industry) announced its 1941 production plan on 9 December 1940. Zavod Nr. 1 in Moscow-Chodinka would be required to build a total of 3,500 in 1941. Zavod Nr. 43 in Kiev would begin construction of the MiG-3 and complete one hundred aircraft by the end of the year and Zavod Nr. 21 in Gor'kiy would start to plan construction of an upgraded version of the MiG-3, although this last program was canceled shortly afterwards. 140 were delivered in January 1941 and Zavod Nr. 1 was on pace to exceed its quota with 496 delivered in July, 562 in August and 450 in September. In October the German advance on Moscow forced the Zavod Nr. 1, and its OKO, to evacuate to Kuybyshev where production resumed under unsuitable conditions. However, shortly afterwards, Stalin sent a telegram to the directors of the plants building the Ilyushin Il-2 and the MiG-3 demanding more Il-2 production, resulting in MiG-3 production being terminated in favor of the Il-2, with a final thirty aircraft built in 1942 from spares. An additional factor in cancellation of the MiG-3 was that its Mikulin AM-35A engine was closely related to the Il-2's AM-38 allowing production to be quickly switched from one to the other.

MiG-3 production at Zavod Nr. 1 had already been planned to be reduced from a NKAP order of 27 August that required the factory to produce 420 fighters in September, declining to 100 in December with Il-2 production ramping up to 250 in December while the former aircraft repair plant at Khodynka Aerodrome was to be transferred to the NKAP, redesignated as Zavod Nr. 165, and begin production of MiG-3s. The German advance disrupted these plans for Zavod 165 and it never produced a single MiG-3.

Operational history

MiG-3s were delivered to frontline fighter regiments beginning in the spring of 1941 and were a handful for pilots accustomed to the lower-performance and docile Polikarpov I-152 and I-153 biplanes and the Polikarpov I-16 monoplane. It remained tricky and demanding to fly even after the extensive improvements made over the MiG-1. Many fighter regiments had not kept pace in training pilots to handle the MiG and the rapid pace of deliveries resulted in many units having more MiGs than trained pilots during the German invasion. By 1 June 1941, 1,029 MIG-3s were on strength, but there were only 494 trained pilots.
In contrast to the untrained pilots of the 31st Fighter Regiment, those of the 4th Fighter Regiment were able to claim three German high-altitude reconnaissance aircraft shot down before war broke out in June 1941. However high-altitude combat of this sort was to prove to be uncommon on the Eastern Front where most air-to-air engagements were at altitudes well below . At these altitudes the MiG-3 was outclassed by the Bf 109 in all respects, and even by other new Soviet fighters such as the Yakovlev Yak-1. Furthermore, the shortage of ground-attack aircraft in 1941 forced it into that role as well, for which it was totally unsuited.
Pilot Alexander E. Shvarev recalled: "The Mig was perfect at altitudes of 4,000 m and above. But at lower altitudes it was, as they say, 'a cow'. That was the first weakness. The second was its armament: weapons failure dogged this aircraft. The third weakness was its gunsights, which were inaccurate: that's why we closed in as much as we could and fired point blank."

On 22 June 1941, most MiG-3s and MiG-1s were in the border military districts of the Soviet Union. The Leningrad Military District had 164, 135 were in the Baltic Military District, 233 in the Western Special Military District, 190 in the Kiev Military District and 195 in the Odessa Military District for a total of 917 on hand, of which only 81 were non-operational. An additional 64 MiGs were assigned to Naval Aviation, 38 in the Air Force of the Baltic Fleet and 26 in the Air Force of the Black Sea Fleet.

The 4th and 55th Fighter Regiments had most of the MiG-3s assigned to the Odessa Military District and their experiences on the first day of the war may be taken as typical. The 4th, an experienced unit, shot down a Romanian Bristol Blenheim reconnaissance bomber, confirmed by postwar research, and lost one aircraft which crashed into an obstacle on takeoff. The 55th was much less experienced with the MiG-3 and claimed three aircraft shot down, although recent research confirms only one German Henschel Hs 126 was 40% damaged, and suffered three pilots killed and nine aircraft lost. The most unusual case was the pair of MiG-3s dispatched from the 55th on a reconnaissance mission to Ploieşti that failed to properly calculate their fuel consumption and both were forced to land when they ran out of fuel.

Most of the MiG-3s assigned to the interior military districts were transferred to the PVO where their lack of performance at low altitudes was not so important. On 10 July 299 were assigned to the PVO, the bulk of them belonging to the 6th PVO Corps at Moscow, while only 293 remained with the VVS, and 60 with the Naval Air Forces, a total of only 652 despite deliveries of several hundred aircraft. By 1 October, on the eve of the German offensive towards Moscow codenamed Operation Typhoon, only 257 were assigned to VVS units, 209 to the PVO, and 46 to the Navy, a total of only 512, a decrease of 140 fighters since 10 July, despite deliveries of over a thousand aircraft in the intervening period. By 5 December, the start of the Soviet counter-offensive that drove the Germans back from the gates of Moscow, the Navy had 33 MiGs on hand, the VVS 210, and the PVO 309. This was a total of 552, an increase of only 40 aircraft from 1 October.

Over the winter of 1941–42 the Soviets transferred all of the remaining MiG-3s to the Navy and PVO so that on 1 May 1942 none were left on strength with the VVS. By 1 May 1942, Naval Aviation had 37 MiGs on strength, while the PVO had 323 on hand on 10 May. By 1 June 1944, the Navy had transferred all its aircraft to the PVO, which reported only 17 on its own strength, and all of those were gone by 1 January 1945. Undoubtedly more remained in training units and the like, but none were assigned to combat units by then.

Even with the MiG-3's limitations, Aleksandr Pokryshkin, the third-leading Soviet, and Allied, ace of the war, with 53 official air victories (plus six shared), recorded a number of those victories while flying a MiG-3 at the beginning of the war. He later recalled:
"Its designers rarely succeeded in matching both the fighter's flight characteristics with its firepower… the operational advantage of the MiG-3 seemed to be obscured by its certain defects. However, these advantages could undoubtedly be exploited by a pilot able to discover them".

Variants
There were several attempts to re-engine the aircraft with the engine it was originally designed for, the Mikulin AM-37. This was designated the MiG-7, and one MiG-3 was converted to evaluate the engine in May 1941. It proved to have poor longitudinal stability and the powerplant itself still had a number of problems. The German invasion the following month caused the cancellation of the development of the AM-37 as Mikulin's resources were required for the AM-35 and AM-38 engines already in production.

To improve the low-level performance of the MiG-3, one aircraft was tested with the AM-38 engine used by the Il-2 in July 1941. It proved to be  faster than the normal MiG-3 at sea level and was more maneuverable as well. It was recommended for production after passing its State acceptance trials in September, provided that a cure for the engine's tendency to overheat in ambient temperatures above  was found. However the sole prototype was shot down on 5 October during flight tests and it was decided not to proceed with the idea as all AM-38 production was allocated to the Il-2. Ironically, later in the war, about 80 MiG-3s were reengined with AM-38s to make them airworthy again. Many of these were rearmed with two 20 mm ShVAK cannon as well.

On 13 May 1941 the NKAP ordered the OKO to convert a MiG-3 to use the Shvetsov ASh-82A radial engine then entering production. The resulting aircraft had a variety of names, including I-210, MiG-3-82, Samolyot IKh or Izdeliye 65. The design was a failure, but was promising enough to continue the program as the I-211.

A variety of other tests and other projects were conducted using MiG-3s. Leading edge slats were evaluated in 1941 although they were not fitted on production aircraft, but were used by the I-210. A six-bladed propeller was fitted on one aircraft to increase thrust at high altitude to enable the fighter to catch the high-flying Junkers Ju 86P aircraft then overflying Moscow. A new propeller hub was made that mounted six standard VISh-61 blades, but nothing more is known of the project. Four aircraft were converted to carry AFA-I cameras for evaluation and a fifth was then converted to evaluate all the improvements learned from the first four. It was approved for use after trials at the NII VVS. To improve their service ceiling two aircraft were lightened down to a weight of , but no further details are known other than one reached a height of .

There was also a proposal in 1941 to use the MiG-3 as part of a Zveno combination with a Petlyakov Pe-8 mother ship. The four-engined bomber would carry two MiG-3SPB (Skorostnoy Pikeeruyushchiy Bombardirovshchik—Fast Dive Bomber) fighters, modified to carry a  FAB-250 bomb under each wing, close to the target and would then release them to conduct the attack after which they would fly back to the nearest friendly airbase. Some preliminary work was done before the Germans invaded, but it was abandoned afterwards due to the pressure of other work. The combination was estimated to have a maximum speed of  and a range of .

Histoire
Le manoir appartient à la famille FitzHerbert à partir du , accordé à William Fitz-Herbert en fief-ferme par le prieuré de Tutbury en 1125. En 1444, Nicholas FitzHerbert et son fils Ralph donnent leurs terres à Osmaston, ainsi que d'autres terres à Foston et Church Broughton, au prieuré pour acheter le manoir .

Le manoir construit par William FitzHerbert au milieu du  est remarquablement bien conservé. Le vieux manoir est connu pour ses caractéristiques architecturales historiques, notamment un poinçon royal rare, une cheminée médiévale, une porte Tudor et des verres flamands du . La maison Tudor attenante est construite par Ralph FitzHerbert au milieu du  et reconstruite vers 1680, mais conserve de nombreuses caractéristiques d'origine.

Les jardins d'accompagnement comprennent un parterre d'herbes aromatiques.

Le manoir est gravement endommagée par les forces parlementaires pendant la guerre civile anglaise et après la mort de Sir John FitzHerbert en 1649, elle est dans un état délabré et tombe en ruine.

Zigeunersken er en stumfilm fra 1911 instrueret af Einar Zangenberg.

Handling

En ung greve holder en middag, og for at underholde sine gæster tager han dem med til en sigøjnercamping, hvor nogle af sigøjnerpigerne danser for at underholde de unge mænd. Tællingen tiltrækkes af en sigøjner og forelsker sig i hende. Lidt senere ser pigen greven køre til sit bryllup med datteren til en nabo-aristokrat, og hun vender sorgramt tilbage til sit eget folk. Fem år går, og nogle sigøjnere beder greven om almisse. Han sender dem vredt væk, og de vender hævnfuldt tilbage og kidnapper barnet, der føres til sigøjneren. Sigøjnerpigen genkender barnet, og når sigøjnerne sover, sniger hun sig ud for at bringe barnet tilbage til dets forældre. Sigøjnerne forfølger hende, men hun skynder sig over strømmen og når sikkert til grevens ejendom. Hun finder de bedrøvede forældre, og faderen er opdager at kvinden han har begået uret imod har vendt godt til ondt.

The Barcelona chair is a chair designed by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe and Lilly Reich, for the German Pavilion at the International Exposition of 1929, hosted by Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain.

The chair was first used in Villa Tugendhat, a private residence, designed by Mies in Brno (Czech Republic).

Materials and manufacture
The frame was initially designed to be bolted together but was redesigned in 1950 using stainless steel, which allowed the frame to be formed with a seamless piece of metal, giving it a smoother appearance.  Bovine leather replaced the ivory-colored pigskin which was used for the original pieces.

Philosophy and ergonomics
Although many architects and furniture designers of the Bauhaus era were intent on providing well-designed homes and impeccably manufactured furnishings for the "common man," the Barcelona chair was an exception. It was designed for the Spanish Royalty to oversee the opening ceremonies of the exhibition and was described by Time magazine as inhabiting "his sumptuous German pavilion." The form is thought to be extrapolated from Roman folding chairs known as the Curule chair  upholstered stools used by the Roman aristocracy. According to Knoll Inc., despite its industrial appearance the Barcelona chair requires much hand craftsmanship.

Current production
Since 1953 Knoll Inc has manufactured the Barcelona chair in both chrome and stainless steel. The chairs are almost completely hand-crafted, and each carries a facsimile of van der Rohe's signature, stamped into its frame.

Unlicensed replicas of the original design are made by other manufacturers worldwide and are sold under different marketing names. Such designs are frequently subject to legal challenges.

In popular culture
In his 1981 book about modern architecture, From Bauhaus to Our House, Tom Wolfe called the Barcelona chair as "the Platonic ideal of the chair", and wrote that, despite its high price, owning one had become a necessity for young architects: "When you saw the holy object on the sisal rug, you knew you were in a household where a fledgling architect and his young wife had sacrificed everything to bring the symbol of the godly mission into their home."

On the cover of the fifth volume of Spy × Family, the character Yuri Briar is shown sitting on a Barcelona chair.

In the 2001 Star Trek: Voyager finale "Endgame", it was featured in Admiral Kathryn Janeway's apartment.

Der Honda Grand Prix of St. Petersburg 2012 fand am 25. März in den Streets of St. Petersburg in Saint Petersburg, Florida, Vereinigte Staaten statt und war das erste Rennen der IndyCar-Series-Saison 2012.

Berichte

Hintergrund
Der Honda Grand Prix of St. Petersburg 2012 war das erste IndyCar-Rennen mit dem neuen Chassis, dem Dallara DW12. Erstmals seit der Saison 2005 (mit Ausnahme des Toyota Grand Prix of Long Beach 2008) war Honda nicht mehr exklusiver Motorenlieferant. Chevrolet und Lotus (in Kooperation mit Engine Developments) stiegen als Motorenlieferant in die IndyCar Series ein. Die alten V8-Saugmotoren wurden durch 2,2-Liter-V6-Turbotriebwerke ersetzt.

Ed Carpenter Racing trat erstmals zu einem Rennen an. Bei Sam Schmidt Motorsports und Sarah Fisher Racing gab es zwischen den Saisons Veränderungen in der Anteilsstruktur, weshalb die Teams als Schmidt-Hamilton Motorsports bzw. Sarah Fisher Hartman Racing an den Start gingen. Dragon Racing und Rahal Letterman Lanigan Racing kehrten in die IndyCar Series zurück.

Rubens Barrichello, der zu diesem Zeitpunkt der Fahrer mit den meisten Formel-1-Starts war, debütierte bei diesem Rennen für KV Racing Technology in der IndyCar Series. Darüber hinaus nahmen Katherine Legge (Lotus-Dragon Racing), die schon in der Champ-Car-Serie gefahren war, und Josef Newgarden (Sarah Fisher Hartman Racing) erstmals an einem Rennen der IndyCar Series teil. Sébastien Bourdais (Lotus-Dragon Racing), Simon Pagenaud (Schmidt-Hamilton Motorsports) und Justin Wilson (Dale Coyne Racing) kehrten in die IndyCar Series zurück. Ed Carpenter (Ed Carpenter Racing), Mike Conway (A. J. Foyt Enterprises), James Hinchcliffe (Andretti Autosport), Takuma Satō (Rahal Letterman Lanigan) und Oriol Servià (Lotus – DRR) starteten erstmals für ihre neuen Teams.

Mit Hélio Castroneves (zweimal), Graham Rahal, Ryan Briscoe, Will Power und Dario Franchitti (jeweils einmal) traten fünf ehemalige Sieger zu diesem Grand Prix an.

Training
Im ersten Training erzielte Scott Dixon die schnellste Zeit vor den Penske-Piloten Briscoe und Power die schnellste Runde. Er hatte fast eine halbe Sekunde Vorsprung auf seinen ersten Verfolger. Während die Chevrolet- und Honda-Piloten ähnlich schnelle Rundenzeiten fuhren, hatte Servià als bester Lotus-Pilot über eine Sekunde Rückstand auf den ersten und lag auf dem 19. Platz. Im zweiten Training setzte Power die Bestzeit vor Briscoe und Franchitti. Simona de Silvestro als beste Fahrerin mit Lotus-Triebwerk hatte fast eine Sekunde Rückstand. Im dritten Training war Pagenaud der schnellste Pilot vor Power und Briscoe. Bourdais hatte den Rückstand der Lotus-Piloten auf unter sechs Zehntelsekunden gesenkt. Chancen auf eine vordere Startposition hatte Pagenaud jedoch nicht, da sein Motor vor dem finalen Training gewechselt wurde, was eine Strafversetzung um zehn Positionen nach sich zog.

Qualifying
Der erste Abschnitt des Zeitentrainings wurde in zwei Gruppen ausgetragen. Die sechs schnellsten Piloten jeder Gruppe kamen ins zweite Segment. Die restlichen Startpositionen wurden aus dem Ergebnis des ersten Qualifyingabschnitts bestimmt, wobei den Fahrern der ersten Gruppe die ungeraden Positionen ab 13, und den Fahrern der zweiten Gruppe die geraden Positionen ab 14 zugewiesen wurden. In diesem Abschnitt fielen beide Fahrer von Lotus-Dragon Racing mit Fehlern auf. Bourdais drehte sich und sorgte für eine Unterbrechung des Qualifyings der zweiten Gruppe. Seine Teamkollegin Legge fuhr in der ersten Gruppe kurz vor Ende in einen Reifenstapel. In der ersten Gruppe fuhr Castroneves die schnellste Runde, in der zweiten Gruppe war Ryan Hunter-Reay der schnellste Pilot. Alle Lotus-Piloten schieden bereits in diesem Abschnitt aus. Bester von ihnen war Alex Tagliani auf der 17. Position.

Im zweiten Segment der Qualifikation qualifizierten sich die sechs schnellsten Fahrer für den finalen Abschnitt. Hinchcliffe erzielte die schnellste Rundenzeit. Neben ihm schafften es mit Power, Briscoe, Hunter-Reay und Castroneves insgesamt fünf Chevrolet-Fahrer, sowie alle Penske Piloten, in den dritten Teil des Qualifyings. Die sogenannten Firestone Fast Six komplettierte Pagenaud, der als einziger dieser sechs Fahrer mit einem Honda-Motor fuhr.

Power fuhr schließlich die schnellste Zeit und erzielte die Pole-Position vor seinem Teamkollegen Briscoe und Hunter-Reay. Es war die erste Pole-Position für Chevrolet und die dritte Pole-Position von Power in Folge in Saint Petersburg. Powers Pole-Zeit war 0,6 Sekunden schneller als seine Pole-Zeit aus der letzten Saison mit dem alten Chassis.

Abschlusstraining
Im Abschlusstraining am Morgen vor dem Rennen fuhr Conway die schnellste Runde vor Satō und Wilson. Die Strecke war nach einem Regenschauer in der Nacht noch leicht feucht.

Rennen
Beim Start behielt Power die Führung und auch die Positionen zwei und drei blieben unverändert. Dahinter übernahm Dixon mit einem guten Start den vierten Platz. Power führte zunächst ungefährdet.

In der 12 Runde kam es zu mehreren Verschiebungen. Legge war auf der Start-Ziel-Geraden mit einem Elektrikdefekt stehen geblieben. Unter anderem entschied sich Power für einen Boxenstopp, wodurch die Führung an Briscoe ging. Legge fuhr nach einem Reparaturstopp weiter, fiel jedoch im weiteren Verlauf des Rennens aus.

Kurz dem Restart kam es zur nächsten Gelbphase, nachdem James Jakes in der Streckenbegrenzung von Kurve 10 stehen blieb. In dieser Gelbphase fielen Tony Kanaan und de Silvestro mit technischen Problemen aus. Power war in der Zwischenzeit ins Mittelfeld zurückgefallen. Die nun führenden Piloten fuhren erst am Anfang des zweiten Renndrittels ihren ersten Boxenstopp durch.

Unter anderem fiel Castroneves durch diesen Stopp hinter Carpenter zurück. Nachdem er längere Zeit nicht an ihm vorbeigekommen war, berührten sich beide Fahrzeuge in der letzten Kurve. Dabei drehte Castroneves seinen Kontrahenten, der infolgedessen auf der Start-Ziel-Geraden liegen blieb und eine weitere Gelbphase notwendig wurde. In dieser Gelbphase absolvierten die meisten Piloten, die nicht auf einer Zwei-Stopp-Strategie waren, ihren zweiten Stopp.

Anschließend gab es keine weiteren Gelbphasen mehr. Dixon führte das Rennen zunächst bis zu seinem zweiten und letzten Stopp vor Castroneves an. Nachdem beide Piloten an der Box waren, überholte Castroneves Dixon und setzte sich von ihm ab. Nachdem die restlichen Piloten an der Box waren, lag Castroneves ungefährdet in Führung. Bei dem Grand Prix fielen speziell in der Schlussphase mehrere Piloten mit technischen Problemen aus.

Schließlich gewann Castroneves das Rennen mit einem Vorsprung von etwa fünf Sekunden. Es war bereits Castroneves dritter Sieg beim Honda Grand Prix of St. Petersburg. Er war zu dem Zeitpunkt der einzige mehrfache Sieger dieses Grand Prix. Es war sein erster Sieg seit dem IndyCar-Rennen in Motegi 2010. Hinter Castroneves komplettierten Dixon, Hunter-Reay, Hinchcliffe und Briscoe die Top-Fünf. Von den ersten fünf Piloten stoppten bis auf Briscoe alle Piloten zweimal. Briscoe kam dreimal an die Box.

Pagenaud erzielte bei diesem Rennen mit dem sechsten Platz seine bisher beste Platzierung in der IndyCar Series. Power wurde Siebter vor E. J. Viso, der kurz vor Rennende noch zu einem sogenannten Splash-and-Dash-Stopp, bei dem nur für wenige Runden Treibstoff nachgetankt wird, an die Box musste. Charlie Kimball und Wilson belegten die Positionen neun und zehn.

Nach dem Rennen hielt der Sieger Castroneves sein Fahrzeug nicht wie üblich auf der Start-Ziel-Geraden an, sondern in Kurve 10. Die dortige Straße war im Vorfeld des Grand Prix in Dan Wheldon Way umbenannt worden. Dan Wheldon war beim letzten Saisonrennen der IndyCar Series 2011 in Las Vegas tödlich verunglückt. Castroneves kletterte auf den Fangzaun an der Stelle wo das Straßennamensschild angebracht war und zeigte auf dieses. Castroneves klettert nach Siegen für Gewöhnlich auf den Fangzaun, was ihm den Namen "Spiderman" einbrachte. Castroneves begründete sein Verhalten nach dem Rennen mit folgenden Worten: "Da gibt es keine Frage. Dieser Sieg gehört unserem Freund oben im Himmel, Dan Wheldon."

The Swingles are a vocal group. The Swingle Singers originally formed in 1962 in Paris, France under the leadership of Ward Swingle. In 1973, Swingle disbanded the French group, and formed an English group known initially as Swingle II and later as the New Swingle Singers, before settling on the Swingles name.

History

French group
The Swingle Singers were formed in Paris in 1962 and directed originally by Ward Swingle (who once belonged to Mimi Perrin's French vocal group Les Double Six). They began as session singers, mainly doing backing vocals for singers such as Charles Aznavour and Edith Piaf. Their original lineup was Anne Germain, Claude Germain, Jeanette Baucomont, Christiane Legrand, Claudine Meunier, Jean-Claude Briodin, and Jean Cussac, with Legrand (sister of Michel Legrand) the original lead soprano. The ensemble sang some jazz vocals for Michel Legrand.

The eight session singers sang through Bach's Well-Tempered Clavier as a sight-reading exercise and found the music to have a natural swing. They recorded their first album Jazz Sébastien Bach as a present for friends and relatives. Many radio stations picked it up and this led to the group recording more albums and winning a total of five Grammy Awards. The French group typically performed and recorded with a double bass and drums as accompaniment.

In 1973, Ward Swingle disbanded the original French group when he and his family moved to England.

English group

In England, Swingle assembled a group of singers with an emphasis moved from classical music to a cappella arrangements of madrigals and then on to other styles. This group debuted Swingle II, and performed and recorded under the name The Swingles, The New Swingle Singers, and The Swingle Singers before settling on The Swingles.

The group has remained continuously active since its formation. Until 2011, the group consisted of eight voices: two sopranos, two altos, two tenors and two basses, with departing members replaced by audition. However, when alto Lucy Bailey left the group in 2011, the Swingles announced the decision not to replace her, but to continue as a seven-person line-up.

Ward Swingle continued as a performer in the group until retiring to the United States in 1984 and taking the role of "musical adviser" to the Swingles until his death in 2015.

The current group performs primarily, but not exclusively, a cappella and over the decades has explored a wide range of styles, from show tunes to rock to avant garde to world folkloric music to straight ahead jazz to classical, including the entire repertoire of the original Swingle Singers. The Swingles are curators of the London A Cappella Festival, based at Kings Place.

, the members are:
Mallika Bhagwat (soprano, India) (since April 2023)
Joanna Goldsmith-Eteson (soprano, UK)
Imogen Parry (alto, UK), daughter of former Swingle, Ben Parry
Oliver Griffiths (tenor, UK)
Jon Smith (tenor, US)
Jamie Wright (baritone and vocal percussionist, UK)  replaced Kevin Fox, who left in 2019.
Tom Hartley  (bass, UK) (since June 2022)
Sound engineer: Max Hunter (UK)

Performances and releases
An early hit for the group was Bach's "Air on the G String", recorded with the Modern Jazz Quartet; it has been used as the theme tune to a popular Italian TV Show, Superquark, as well as the Swedish Children's program, Beppes godnattstund, hosted by Beppe Wolgers. Luciano Berio wrote his postmodern symphony Sinfonia for eight voices and orchestra in 1968 with the Swingle Singers in mind (appearing on the original premiere recording with the New York Philharmonic). They also premiered Berio's A-Ronne in 1974, which they later recorded. They also recorded Ben Johnston's "Sonnets of Desolation" in 1984.

In 2005, their recording of Bach's Prelude in F Minor was incorporated into the hit single "They", by Jem Griffiths; the piece was also used in the 2006 film The Gigolos. The group's music has a trademark sound and is used frequently on television (The West Wing, Sex and the City, Miami Vice, Glee), in movies (Bach's Fugue in G Minor (BWV 578) in Thank You for Smoking, Mozart's "Horn Concerto No. 4" in Wedding Crashers, Bach's "Prelude No.7 in E flat [The Well Tempered Clavier – Book 2 BWV 876]" in Milk).

The English group sang with French pop star Étienne Daho on his songs "Timide intimité" and "Soudain" from his 1996 album Eden, and with the Style Council on their song "The Story of Someone's Shoe" from the 1988 album Confessions of a Pop Group. They appeared several times on the BBC Television sketch show The Two Ronnies in the early 1970s.

In September 2014, the French blog Dans l'ombre des studios published Swingle Singers' Pavane for a Dead Princess (Maurice Ravel), a previously unreleased 1967 recording.

Beykiætt (fræðiheiti: Fagaceae) er ætt blómplantna sem meðal annars inniheldur beyki og eikur. Ættin inniheldur um 927 tegundir í 8 ættkvíslum. Beykiætt er meðal vistfræðilega mikilvægustu ætta á Norðurhveli því eikur eru lykiltegundir í skógum tempraða beltisins í Norður-Ameríku, Evrópu og Asíu.

Útlit og einkenni
Flestar tegundir af beykiætt eru sumargræn tré eða runnar. Laufin eru stakstæð og fjaðurstrengjótt. Einkynja blóm vaxa á reklum og aldinið er yfirleitt hneta. Laufin eru oft sepótt og yfirleitt hafa þau bæði blaðstilk og axlablöð. Lauf plantna af beykiætt geta líkst laufum tegunda af rósaætt og skyldum ættum. Aldinin hafa ekki fræhvítu og hver hneta inniheldur eitt til sjö fræ.

Nytjar
Margar tegundir af beykiætt eru efnahagslega mikilvægar. Eikartegundir (Quercus), kastaníur (Castanea) og beykitegundir (Fagus) eru notaðar sem timbur í gólf, húsgögn, skápa og tunnur. Korkur er unninn úr berki korkeikarinnar (Quercus suber). Kastaníuhnetur koma af trjám af ættkvíslinni Castanea. Tegundir úr nokkrum ættkvíslum eru ræktaðar til skrauts og yndisauka. Trjáskífur úr beyki er einnig stundum notað til að bragðbæta bjór.

James Wilson (3 June 1805 – 11 August 1860) was a Scottish businessman, economist, and Liberal politician who founded The Economist weekly and the Chartered Bank of India, Australia and China, which merged with Standard Bank in 1969 to form Standard Chartered. He was the first Finance Member of the Viceroy's Executive Council from December 1859 until his death in August 1860. Sent there to put order into the chaos that followed the "Sepoy Mutiny" of 1857, he presented India's first budget, and was responsible for the government accounting system, Pay Office, and audit, apart from government paper currency, Indian Police, a Military Finance Commission, and a Civil Finance Commission.

Early life
Wilson was born in Hawick in the Scottish Borders. His Quaker father William Wilson owned a hat manufactury, and his ancestors were local sheep farmers. He was the fourth of fifteen children, of whom ten reached adulthood. His mother died when James was young.

A successful disciplined autodidact scholar from a Quaker family, he was destined to be a schoolmaster but hated it so much that he "would rather to be the most menial servant in [his] father's mill". After considering studying law with a view to becoming an advocate, a profession which would have meant abandoning his family religion, Wilson decided instead to learn business, and at the age of sixteen became an apprentice in a hat factory. Later, his father bought the business for him and his elder brother, William. When James Wilson was nineteen, the brothers left Scotland and migrated to London, with a gift of £2,000 each, .

Career

Business
The brothers established a manufacturing factory—Wilson, Irwin & Wilson—that they dissolved in 1831. Wilson continued in the same line of business with much success (his net worth was £25,000 in 1837, . During the economic crisis of 1837, he lost most of his wealth when the price of indigo fell. By 1839, he had sold most of his property and avoided bankruptcy. However, in 1853 he founded the Chartered Bank of India, Australia and China, which later merged with the Standard Bank to form Standard Chartered Bank in 1969.

Journalism
Wilson was generally opposed to privileging the Church of England, the secret ballot when it was proposed in 1853, and the Corn Laws. He wrote a pamphlet titled Influences of the Corn Laws, as affecting all classes of the community, and particularly the landed interests. It slowly received positive feedback and Wilson's fame had grown. He then went on writing on currency, and especially The Revenue; or, What should the Chancellor do?. He started to write for newspapers, including the Manchester Guardian. In 1843 he established The Economist as a newspaper to campaign for free trade, and acted as Chief editor and sole proprietor for sixteen years. His overarching goal to end vested interests in the Westminster parliament wherever these led to poverty or starvation, as the Corn Laws most notably had done. An article Wilson published in April 1848 in opposition to the Ten Hours Bill was criticised by Karl Marx for misunderstanding profit and the working day. The Economist is still published today, now with a weekly circulation of over 1.6 million globally. Wilson was the most respected statistician of his times and saw economics as an optimistic and rational way of mediating socially sustainable futures drawing on the Scottish School of Adam Smith and the French "Entrepreneur" School of Jean-Baptiste Say.

Politics
Wilson entered the House of Commons as Liberal Member of Parliament for Westbury, Wiltshire, in 1847. Due to his economic experience, in 1848, prime minister Lord John Russell appointed Wilson as Secretary of the Board of Control, which supervised the East India Company's control of British India, a post he held until the government fell in 1852. He then served as Financial Secretary to the Treasury between 1853 and 1858, firstly in Lord Aberdeen's coalition government and secondly in Lord Palmerston's first administration. In 1857, he was returned to Parliament for Devonport. He again briefly held office under Palmerston as Paymaster General and Vice-President of the Board of Trade between June and August 1859, and was sworn of the Privy Council the same year.

In August 1859, Wilson resigned these offices and his seat in parliament to sit as the financial member of the Council of India. He was sent by Queen Victoria to India to establish the tax structure, a new paper currency, and remodel India's finance system after the Rebellion of 1857. However, he was in office only a year before he died. In 1860, he refused to leave the stifling summer heat of Calcutta, contracted dysentery, and died in August of that year at age 55.

Despite his prominent public role, Wilson was buried unknown at a cemetery at Mullick Bazar in Kolkata. His grave was discovered in 2007 by CP Bhatia, a joint commissioner of Income Tax, while researching a book on India's tax history. Due to the efforts of CP Bhatia the tombstone was restored by the Christian Burial Board.

Family
Wilson married Elizabeth Preston of Newcastle-upon-Tyne in January 1832. They had six daughters, of whom Eliza, the eldest, married Walter Bagehot.

Davy Jones este un personaj fictiv în seria de filme Pirații din Caraibe, jucat de Bill Nighy. El apare în cel de-al doilea film, Cufărul omului mort și revine în cel de-al treilea film, La capătul lumii. El este căpitanul "Olandezului Zburător" (bazat pe nava-fantomă cu același nume).

Imaginile generate de calculator (CGI) folosite pentru a îl ilustra pe Jones au fost numite de Entertainment Weekly drept al zecelea cel mai preferat personaj bazat pe CGI din istoria filmului, după King Kong în 2007. Lucrul asupra personajului i-a adus studioului  Premiul Oscar pentru cele mai bune efecte vizuale în 2006 pentru efectele vizuale din Dead Man's Chest și La capătul lumii. Bill Nighy, actorul care l-a jucat pe Davy Jones, a primit Premiul Teen Choice pentru rolurile din ambele filme.

Personajul se bazează pe superstiția lui Davy Jones Locker, care în legende strângea cadavrele eșuate pe țărm și le făcea parte din echipajul său.

Le château du Nouvion-en-Thiérache se situe dans le département de l'Aisne dans la région des Hauts-de-France.

Histoire
Il est placé au cœur même de l'ancien duché de Guise. Le domaine forestier qui l'entoure a autrefois appartenu à Marie Stuart dont la mère était issue de la famille de Guise. Le domaine revint ensuite aux princes de Condé par héritage. Le duc d'Aumale, 4ème fils de Louis-Philippe en hérite de son oncle et parrain le duc de Bourbon en 1830. Après la révolution de 1848, le duc d'Aumale est contraint à l'exil et cède le domaine de Guise à la banque Seillière pour 13 millions de francs. La société Seillière construit entre 1853 et 1856 l'actuel château afin d'abriter les bureaux de l'administration forestière du domaine.

La vente à la société Seillière n'était en fait qu'une opération fictive. C'est pourquoi le duc d'Aumale retrouve son domaine dès 1872 avec en "prime" un nouveau château qui remplaçait avantageusement l'ancienne demeure en ruine des ducs de Guise.

Au décès du duc d'Aumale en 1897, le duc de Guise en hérite avec réserve d'usufruit au duc de Chartres, son père. Le jeune duc de Guise s'installe au château de Nouvion juste avant son mariage en 1899 avec sa cousine la princesse Isabelle de France, fille du prétendant Philippe VII, comte de Paris.

Le jeune ménage s'y installe et vit paisiblement dans ce cadre champêtre. Deux des quatre enfants du duc et de la duchesse de Guise naquirent au château. La princesse Anne, future duchesse d'Aoste le 5 août 1906 et le prince Henri, futur comte de Paris le 5 juillet 1908.

Le prince Henri est baptisé le 25 novembre 1908 par l'Abbé Desmier d'Olbreuse en l'église Saint Denis du Nouvion-en-Thiérache. La duchesse de Guise s'ennuyant au château, les princes décident dès 1909 de quitter la métropole pour le Maroc. En 1910, le duc et la duchesse de Guise et leurs 4 enfants s'installent sur le site de Larache au Nord du royaume chérifien.

Le château du Nouvion sera pillé par les Allemands durant la guerre de 1914-1918. À la mort du duc de Guise en 1940, le comte de Paris et ses sœurs héritent du domaine.

Faisant suite à un accord familial, le comte de Paris et le prince Michel de Grèce (fils de la princesse Françoise) deviennent les seuls propriétaires de l'important domaine forestier. Le prince Michel de Grèce vendra sa part quelques années plus tard. Le comte et la comtesse de Paris seront très touchés lorsque la ville honora la mémoire du prince François mort en Algérie en donnant son nom à l'allée face au portail du château. Le comte de Paris resté seul propriétaire, le vend en 1980 à la ville de Roubaix pour en faire un centre d'accueil pour enfants.

En 1994, le comte de Paris assiste à l'hommage que lui rend sa ville natale. Ainsi par décision du Conseil municipal, la promenade entourant le plan d'eau est inaugurée et baptisée "Promenade Henri d'Orléans, comte de Paris". En 1999, au décès du comte de Paris, le domaine forestier est partagé entre ses héritiers. Aujourd'hui, le prince jean, duc de Vendôme est le principal propriétaire de la forêt en raison des dispositions testamentaires de sa grand-mère la comtesse de Paris.

Le duc de Vendôme gère sa forêt et assiste chaque année à la vente annuelle du bois. Quant au château, il a été revendu en 2000 par la ville de Roubaix à un homme d'affaires belge.

Architecture

Le château est bâti sur un plan symétrique en U. Il possède un sous-sol voûté en brique, un rez-de-chaussée surélevé, un étage carré et un étage en surcroît. Ces niveaux sont desservis par un escalier symétrique, des escaliers tournants dans-œuvre et des escaliers hors-œuvre en vis avec jour, tous en charpente. Le château est couvert de toits à longs pans, parfois avec demi-croupe, de toits en pavillon et d'un toit à deux pans et croupe. Le logement du concierge et celui du jardinier à l'entrée sont couverts d'un toit brisé en pavillon. Le bâtiment à usage de remise, écurie et logement est couvert d'un toit à deux pans et croupe. Le logement du directeur du centre, en rez-de-chaussée avec comble à surcroît, est couvert ainsi que sa remise d'un toit à pignon couvert en ardoise synthétique. Le petit château, desservi par un escalier tournant, avait à l'origine un toit à deux pans brisés et à croupe brisée et un toit à deux pans et croupe polygonale.
