Biel/Bienne (official bilingual wording; , ) is a town and a municipality in the Biel/Bienne administrative district in the canton of Bern in Switzerland.

Biel/Bienne lies on the language boundary between the French-speaking and German-speaking parts of Switzerland, and is bilingual throughout. Biel is the German name for the town; Bienne its French counterpart. The town is often referred to in both languages simultaneously. Since 1 January 2005, the official name has been "Biel/Bienne". Until then, the town was officially named Biel or Bienne.

The town lies at the foot of the first mountain range of the Jura Mountains area, guarding the only practical connection to Jura, on the northeastern shores of Lake Biel (, ), sharing the eastern tip of the lake with its sister town, Nidau. The towns Neuchâtel, Solothurn, and Bern (the capital of Switzerland) lie southwest, northeast and southeast of Biel/Bienne. They all can be reached within about 30 minutes by train or car.

In 2012, Biel/Bienne had about 55,000 inhabitants, and together with the surrounding district almost 106,000. The town has been an industrial and watchmaking heart of Switzerland since the 19th century.

History

Prehistoric settlements

The shoreline of Lake Biel has been inhabited since at least the Neolithic age. The remains of two neolithic settlements were found at Vingelz in 1874. The remains of the settlements became the Vingelz / Hafen archaeological site, which is now part of a UNESCO World Heritage Site. East of the Vingelz site, a late Bronze Age settlement was also discovered. After the Roman conquest, the region was part of Germania Superior. During the Roman era the Roman road from Petinesca to Pierre Pertuis or Salodurum (now Solothurn) passed through the village of Mett, which is now part of Biel/Bienne. The foundations of buildings and a 4th-century cemetery in Mett come from a late Roman or an early medieval military guard station.

A theory holds that the toponym is derived from the name of Belenus, probably from a Roman era sanctuary of that deity at a sacred spring nearby. However, no surviving records or inscriptions confirm this theory. Another theory states that the town grew up around a late Roman fortress. While no trace of the fortress has been found, the foundations of several Roman buildings have been found east of the medieval town.

The town is mentioned in 1142 as Apud Belnam, which is taken as evidence for its derivation from Belenus. In popular etymology, the name has been connected with the German name for axe (Bernese German bieli), reflected in the two crossed axes in the town's coat of arms.

Foundation

In the 5th century, the area was invaded by the Burgundians, and by the medieval period became part of Upper Burgundy. During the 6th or 7th century, the Germanic speaking Alamanni moved into the area around Lake Biel, creating the language boundary that exists today. By the 8th century, the German-speaking population became the majority on the east end of the lake. In 999 Rudolph III of Burgundy granted lands around Lake Biel to the Bishopric of Basel, during the formative period of the Holy Roman Empire. Through the Bishop of Basel, the Counts of Neuchâtel and later the Counts of Neuchâtel-Nidau began to exercise their power in the foothills of the Jura Mountains. In 1140 the counts built Nidau Castle in the neighboring village of Nidau to help secure their land on the eastern end of the lake. The town was probably built by the Bishop of Basel, Heinrich II von Thun, between 1225 (mention of domum de Bilne) and 1230 (mention of in urbe mea de Beuna). Biel Castle was built either shortly before or shortly after the foundation of the town, to help support Nidau Castle.

Officially, Biel remained under the jurisdiction of the Bishop of Basel throughout the 11th to 18th centuries. However, the early history of the town is filled with conflict between the town council and the Bishop's representative. In 1252, the town council partly succeeded in becoming a free imperial city. In 1275 King of Germany Rudolph of Habsburg granted Biel a town charter. The town's legal position was strengthened in 1296 when Bishop Peter Reich von Reichenstein signed an agreement with the town. This original agreement was strengthened in 1352 and remained in force until 1798.

The town's church, the Church of St. Benedict, was first mentioned in 1228. The current church was built in 1451–70 and is regarded, after Bern Cathedral, as the second most important late gothic building in the Canton of Bern.

An associate of the Swiss Confederation
While it officially remained part of the lands of the Prince-Bishopric of Basel, starting in the 13th century Biel began making alliances with neighboring nobles and cities. In 1279 it allied with Bern. This first alliance was followed in 1311 by an alliance with Fribourg, a 1334 alliance with Solothurn, 1342 with Murten and 1395 with La Neuveville. The alliance with Bern became an eternal alliance in 1352, as Bern itself joined the Old Swiss Confederacy. Contradictory obligations to the Bishop of Basel, Jean de Vienne, and to the Imperial City of Bern led to a war in 1367. During the war, Biel was burned and the Bishop's castle was destroyed. After the extinction of the Counts of Neuchâtel-Nidau in 1375 the Bishop's power around the lake began to wane. In 1388, Bern gained control of Nidau Castle and the town of Nidau. However, the Bishop retained nominal power and influence in Biel. The two competing powers struggled for power in Biel for over 400 years and prevented the town from becoming completely independent from either powerful neighbor.

Biel was considered an associate of the Swiss Confederacy during the 15th century, and after its participation in the Burgundy Wars even came to be recognized as a full member by 1494.

Even though Biel remained nominally under the control of the Catholic Bishops of Basel, in 1528 it converted to the new Protestant faith.

From the French invasion to modern Biel/Bienne

The French Revolution changed the political situation in Biel/Bienne. In 1793, the French Revolutionary Army captured the Bishopric of Basel and brought the French into the lands near Biel. When they conquered the Moutier valley and Erguel in 1797 it brought the French practically to the gates of Biel/Bienne. On 6 February 1798, French troops marched through the open city gate while the population celebrated their arrival. Bienne and its neighboring communities were incorporated as the "Canton de Bienne" into the département du Mont-Terrible of the First French Republic. Two years later, in 1800, it went to the Département du Haut-Rhin. Under Mayor Sigmund Wildermeth (1765–1847) Biel strictly followed every dictate from Paris.

After the collapse of the French Empire, Biel sent Georg Friedrich Heilmann to the Congress of Vienna in 1814 to push for the creation of an independent Canton of Biel. However, he was unsuccessful and the Congress granted most of the territory of the Bishopric to the canton of Bern. Biel was able to resist unification until Bern agreed to retain some of Biel's historic privileges and rights. In 1815 Biel finally joined the Canton of Bern as part of the Oberamt of Nidau. The city council of Biel struggled to make it the capital of its own district. Finally in 1832 the Biel Amtsbezirk was created and Biel became the district capital. The democratic reforms of the Regeneration era helped the citizens of Biel to identify with and feel a part of the Canton of Bern.

By the beginning of the 20th century anarcho-syndicalist groups, which saw strikes and sabotage as legitimate means to bring about reform, began to influence the labor movement in Biel/Bienne. The first large scale strike was the construction workers strike of 1902. The following years were marked with bitterly fought labor disputes. The largest strike was the journeymen carpenters strike of 1907, which lasted almost a year. Also in 1907 labor secretary Gottfried Reimann from the Social Democratic Party was elected mayor. His election marked the first time that a Social Democrat was elected to such a powerful office in Switzerland.

The First World War meant a setback for the labor movement, even though Switzerland was not directly involved in the war. Wages were reduced significantly when the war started while inflation made everything more expensive. In July 1918, a demonstration of starving workers erupted into street riots that required military action to suppress.

In 1919 a Communist Party was founded in Biel, but it remained a minor party in the town. In 1921, the Social Democrats won a slim majority in the city councils. Under the leadership of the Social Democratic Mayor Guido Müller "Red Biel" began a series of socialist community experiments. During the 1930s the entire neighborhood around the train station was redeveloped according to the social planning theories of the era. The Volkshaus (People's House), built under the direction of Edward Lanz between 1928–32, is an example of the "new building" style and a symbol of the Social Democratic era of the city.

In the years leading up to the Second World War, the Social Democrats began to lose power in the city. In the last year of the war, the Swiss Party of Labour gained nine seats on the city council and ended the Social Democrat majority. With the resignation of Mayor Müller in 1947, it would be almost thirty years (1976) before the Social Democrats had another mayor in Biel.

On the occasion of the secession of the canton of Jura in 1978, Biel had been asked to become its capital, but it remained with the canton of Bern.

The town was officially named Biel or Bienne until 2004, even though the bilingual Biel-Bienne was in common use. Since 2005, the official name has been Biel/Bienne, with forward slash.

At the beginning of the 20th century, the town's population was at 30,000 people. It doubled over the next 60 years, peaking at 65,000 in the mid-1960s. It declined gradually over the 1970s to 1990s, to below 49,000 in 2000, again rising slightly to just over 50,000 during the 2000s. Another 89,000 people live in the immediately surrounding urban agglomeration.

The Magglingen/Macolin Funicular often leads to sunshine while Biel/Bienne is covered by low hanging clouds.

The port at the north-eastern end of Lake Biel is a starting point for leisurely journeys to the three lakes of Biel, Neuchâtel, and Murten/Morat through the Three-Lakes Landscape, which are all connected by navigable channels and rivers. The port is situated on the west side of the main railway station between the exit of the river Schüss/La Suze arriving from the Jura in the west through the Taubenlochschlucht'' (Swiss German for pigeon hole gorge) and the navigable Nidau-Büren Canal with connections as far as Solothurn.

Several bridges over the Nidau-Büren Canal connect the town to its south/eastern suburbs.

Biel/Bienne is well connected to other Swiss cities by several motorways (A6 to Bern, and via A5 to both, the Jura and Basel, Luzern, Zurich, St. Gallen).

The town is very well connected to all Swiss international airports: Geneva Airport (1:40h), EuroAirport Basel Mulhouse Freiburg (1:30h), and Zurich Airport (1:30h), also serve as international gateways, all reachable within about the same time by direct train from Biel/Bienne.

Replicas (Alternativtitel: In their skin) ist ein kanadischer Thriller von Jeremy Power Regimbal aus dem Jahr 2011. In dem Film übernehmen Selma Blair, Joshua Close, James D'Arcy und Rachel Miner die Hauptrollen. Die Nebenrollen sind unter anderen besetzt mit Alex Ferris und Quinn Lord. Der Film hatte seine Premiere auf dem Tribeca Film Festival 2012. In Deutschland wurde Replicas auf dem Fantasy Film Festival 2012 erstaufgeführt.

Handlung

Nach dem tragischen Tod ihrer kleinen Tochter sucht die Familie Hughes Erholung in ihrem Ferienhaus, welches sich in den Bergen befindet. Aber ihre Hoffnungen auf eine schöne Zeit alleine werden zunichtegemacht. Nachdem sich das Abendessen mit den Nachbarn in einen Kampf ums Überleben verwandelt, sind die Hughes auf einmal Gefangene in ihrem eigenen Haus.

Kritiken
Das Fachblatt Variety beschrieb den Film als "nervenaufreibenden" Thriller, der seine Grusel-Wirkung voll entfalte, ohne auf billige Genre-Thrills oder aufheischende Arthouse-Verfremdungen zurückzugreifen. The Hollywood Reporter kritisierte jedoch, dass der Film trotz guter Schauspielerleistungen und einer atmosphärischen Regie nicht über Genre-Klischees hinauskomme. Auf kino-zeit.de heißt es, der Film erinnere an Klassiker des Home-Invasion-Genres wie Das letzte Haus links (1972). Die physische und soziologische Radikalität von Wes Cravens Kultfilm würde der Regisseur jedoch scheuen.

Auszeichnungen und Nominierungen
Replicas gewann im Jahr 2012 auf dem Tribeca Film Festival einen Flixist Award in der Kategorie "Best narrative Film". Außerdem wurde er auf dem Chicago International Film Festival im selben Jahr für einen Gold Hugo in der Kategorie "After dark competition" nominiert. Im Jahr 2013 wurde Alex Ferris für einen Young Artist Award in der Kategorie "Bester Nebendarsteller in einen Spielfilm" nominiert.

Super Bowl XLV


Die Zentralhalle im Bayreuther Stadtteil Kreuz war eine am 4. Dezember 1897 eröffnete Gaststätte mit Saal und Freigelände. Als Versammlungsort der Arbeiterbewegung genutzt, war sie historisch nicht unbedeutend. Auch die "Kreiza Kerwa" (Kreuzer Kirchweih) hatte dort ihre Anfänge. 1995 wurde der baulich bemerkenswerte Klinkerbau abgerissen.

Anfänge und erste Jahrzehnte
Mit dem Erlass des Sozialistengesetzes vom 10. Oktober 1878 waren unter anderem die Bayreuther Arbeiter-Liedertafel und der Schneiderverein unverzüglich verboten worden. Nach der Aufhebung dieses Gesetzes am 1. Oktober 1890 endete die Verfolgung der politischen Arbeiterschaft jedoch nicht. Alle Wirte, die dem 1885 gegründeten Wahlverein ihr Lokal für Versammlungen zur Verfügung stellten, wurden unter strenge polizeiliche Aufsicht gestellt. Häufige Lokalwechsel waren die unerlässliche Folge. Erst als 1898 der Restaurateur Fritz Görl die Central-Halle errichtete, fanden die Bayreuther Arbeiterorganisationen eine feste Bleibe.

Am 14. März 1897 hatte sich das Bayreuther Gewerkschaftskartell konstituiert. Im Stadtteil Kreuz, der schon früh durch die Arbeiterbewegung geprägt worden war, hatte es fortan seinen natürlichen Mittelpunkt. Görl hatte die Versammlungsstätte unter großen persönlichen Opfern verwirklicht, bei ihrer Fertigstellung war er 28 Jahre alt. In seinen Reden schlug er eine scharfe Sprache an, wetterte gegen die kapitalistische Weltordnung, bürgerliche "Klimbimvereine" und örtliche "Bauprotzen". Im Januar 1905 starb er im Alter von 36 Jahren und hinterließ eine Ehefrau und vier Kinder. Die SPD-Zeitung Fränkische Volkstribüne schrieb: "Als Sohn des Volkes wird er weiterleben bei der gesamten aufgeklärten Arbeiterbevölkerung".

1895 sollte die Polizei unauffällig kontrollieren, ob in der Wolf'schen Gastwirtschaft offenkundige Anhänger der Sozialdemokratie verkehrten. Der Wirt verneinte dies mit dem Hinweis, die SPD gehe jetzt "ins Kreuz". Ein Polizeibericht aus dem Jahr über "diejenigen im Stadtbezirk Bayreuth ausgehobenen jungen Leute, welche Anhänger des Anarchismus oder der Sozialdemokratie sind" veranschaulicht die damalige Situation. Als am 8. September 1900 Helma Steinbach aus Hamburg in einer Rede in der Zentralhalle die Kolonialpolitik der Regierung kritisierte, wurde die Veranstaltung vorzeitig aufgelöst.

Gesellige und politische Veranstaltungen der Arbeiterbewegung hatten jahrzehntelang in der Zentralhalle ihre Heimat. Zunächst hatten die Feiern zum Ersten Mai, die in den 1890er Jahren jeweils auf einen Sonntag nach dem "Kampftag der Arbeiterklasse" gelegt wurden, keinen festen Platz in der Stadt. Nach der Fertigstellung der Zentralhalle wurde diese zum Ort der Kundgebungen und Festlichkeiten. Görl, der zugleich Festwirt war, sorgte für ein "reichhaltigstes Programm", wobei von den Männern 20 Pfennig Eintritt, von Frauen die Hälfte verlangt wurde. Erst 1910 wagten sich SPD und Arbeiterschaft auf den beliebten Versammlungsplatz am Mainflecklein.

Im Dezember 1898 rief Marian Reichel "alle Freunde der freien Turnsache" zur Vorbereitung eines Arbeiter-Turnvereins in die Zentralhalle ein. Mit der Auflage, sich nicht politisch zu betätigen, genehmigte der konservative Stadtmagistrat dessen Gründung. Die Mitglieder, die sich zunächst an diese Spielregel hielten, turnten in den ersten Jahren des Bestehens des Bayreuther Sportvereins von 1898 (BSV) in der Zentralhalle.

Der Biergarten der Gaststätte war an den Wochenenden und während des Volksfestes "Kreiza Kerwa" ein beliebtes Ausflugsziel der Bayreuther Bevölkerung.

Zeit des Nationalsozialismus
In den frühen 1930er Jahren kam es wiederholt zu Saalschlachten zwischen Sozialdemokraten und SA-Leuten. Am Tag vor der Reichspräsidentenwahl 1932 überfiel ein Trupp uniformierter SA-Leute die Zentralhalle. Die beiden von der SPD aufgestellten Lokalwachen wurden geschlagen und auf einem LKW in das NS-Parteilokal Schoberths-Garten in der Sophienstraße verschleppt. Nach der Machtübernahme der NSDAP nutzten die Nationalsozialisten die Zentralhalle als Versammlungsstätte.

Nachkriegsjahre und Ende
In den ersten Jahren nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg dienten die Gaststätte und der Saalbau den US-Streitkräften als Club. Während dieser Zeit konnte die "Kreiza Kerwa" nicht an ihrem angestammten Platz abgehalten werden. In den 1960er Jahren wurde die Zentralhalle erst zum Nachtlokal "Lilo-Bar" und dann zum Königreichssaal der Zeugen Jehovas. Beim im August 1973 dort veranstalteten Bierfest der Brauerei Gebr. Maisel trat der Festspielchor mit Karl Ridderbusch auf.

Seit 1963 stand die Zentralhalle leer. Am 26. Mai 1993 beschloss der Stadtrat einstimmig, die Bausubstanz des Anwesens zu erhalten und zu sanieren. Das gleiche Gremium beschloss am 19. Juli 1995 mit Dreiviertelmehrheit den "umgehenden" Abbruch, obwohl das Gebäude mittlerweile in die Denkmalschutzliste aufgenommen worden war. Eine der Begründungen für die Aufhebung des Beschlusses zum Erhalt der Halle war, dass sich das Grundstück samt Halle nicht verwerten lasse. Erst nach dem Abriss des Gebäudes sollte der vereinbarte Grundstückstausch mit der Bayreuther Wohnungsbaugenossenschaft, Eigentümerin des Studiobühnen-Areals, oder die Suche nach einem anderen Interessenten anlaufen.

Eine Initiative zur Rettung und künftigen Umnutzung des geschichts- und symbolträchtigen Gebäudes als Bürgerbegegnungsstätte konnte den unter einem sozialdemokratischen Oberbürgermeister genehmigten Abriss im September 1995 nicht verhindern. Noch im Juni jenes Jahres hatte der Förderverein Zentralhalle Bayreuth auf seiner Jahresversammlung vor einem weiteren Verfall des Gebäudes gewarnt. Die Arbeiterwohlfahrt sei interessiert, die Zentralhalle bei einem günstigen Kaufpreis seitens der Stadt zu erwerben. Sie wolle die Räumlichkeiten für eine Begegnungsstätte für Jung und Alt sowie für ein Altenheim nutzen.

Am 28. August wurde mit dem Abriss der Zentralhalle begonnen. Für die Arbeiten, die innerhalb von zwei Wochen abgeschlossen sein sollten, wurden Kosten in Höhe von 75.000 DM veranschlagt. Am 2. Dezember 1996 schrieb die örtliche Tageszeitung Nordbayerischer Kurier: "Die Stadt Bayreuth hatte, gegen Widerstände, im September 1995 die in schlechtem baulichen Zustand befindliche Zentralhalle im Stadtteil Kreuz abreißen lassen, da ihr eine Sanierung unerschwinglich schien. Die Zentralhalle hatte den Befürwortern einer Sanierung als Bayreuther Symbol der Arbeiterbewegung gegolten."

Beisuzhok Vtorói  es un jútor del raión de Výselki del krai de Krasnodar, en Rusia. Está situada en las llanuras de Kubán-Priazov, a orillas  río Beisuzhok Izquierdo (tributario del Beisug), 12 km al sureste de Výselki y 73 km al nordeste de Krasnodar, la capital del krai. Tenía 1 993 habitantes en 2010.

Es cabeza del municipio Beisuzhokskoye.

Historia

Las tierras en las que se asienta el jútor, compradas por el coronel Iván Petina en 1875, comenzaron a poblarse alrededor de 1910. Tras la revolución de octubre, el 28 de diciembre de 1917 se formó un soviet revolucionario. Durante la guerra civil rusa fue ocupada por las tropas blancas, que la represaliaron por su fidelidad al gobierno bolchevique. El Ejército Rojo la liberó en marzo de 1920. En 1929 se finalizó la reforma agraria y a principios de la década de 1930 se inició el proceso de colectivización de las tierras, organizándose en un koljós. En 1973 se construyó un memorial a los más de trescientos caídos durante la Gran Guerra Patria.

William Allen (August 5, 1704 – September 6, 1780) was a wealthy merchant, attorney and chief justice of the Province of Pennsylvania, and mayor of Philadelphia during the colonial era.  At the time of the American Revolution, Allen was one of the wealthiest and most powerful men in Philadelphia. A Loyalist, Allen agreed that the colonies should seek to redress their grievances with British Parliament through constitutional means, and he disapproved of the movement toward independence.

He built a manor and country estate, known as Mount Airy, in 1750 outside Philadelphia; the neighborhood became known by his estate's name and is now part of the city. In 1762, he founded what became Allentown, Pennsylvania, and had a hunting lodge there.

Early life and education
Allen was born in Philadelphia on August 5, 1704, the son of William Allen Sr., a successful Philadelphia merchant of Scots-Irish descent who had immigrated  from Dungannon, County Tyrone, Ireland along with his brother, John, and father. The elder Allen had risen to prominence through close ties to William Penn, the proprietor of Pennsylvania.

As a youth, Allen spent much of his time in England for his education and refinement. In 1720, he was admitted to the Middle Temple in London to study law, and at the same time became a pensioner at Clare College at the University of Cambridge.

Career

Following his father's death in 1725, Allen returned to Philadelphia to manage the family's business interests. In spring 1729, Allen was named alongside lawyer Andrew Hamilton (his future father-in-law) as a trustee for the purchase and building fund to develop the state house in Philadelphia, then the capital of the province. Both men were authorized to buy the land for the project.

By October 1730, Allen and Hamilton began to purchase lots on Chestnut Street at their own expense, the property on which the Pennsylvania State House, later known as Independence Hall, was built. In 1735, Allen was appointed mayor of Philadelphia. The next year, he celebrated the opening of the nearly complete State House by having a feast for all residents and guests of the city; it was described at the time as "the most grand, the most elegant entertainment that has been made in these parts of America."

Advertisements from the Pennsylvania Gazette in 1732 show that Allen and his business partner Joseph Turner participated in the slave trade.

Allen was a Freemason, a member of St. John's Lodge No. 1, "Moderns," Philadelphia, known as the Tun Tavern Lodge. Appointed Provincial Grand Master of Pennsylvania, "Moderns" on June 24, 1731, he is the second Grand Master of the Provincial Grand Lodge of Pennsylvania and also the youngest at 26 years old. Allen served two terms as Grand Master, the first from 1731 to 1732 and the second from 1747 to 1761.

By the will of his father-in-law Andrew Hamilton, dated July 31–August 1, 1741, Allen inherited all the land of the yard for the state house and its surrounding public grounds. They were to be managed by him and his brother-in-law James Hamilton. On September 13, 1761, Allen and Hamilton conveyed Lot no. 1 and the other pieces of land acquired to Isaac Norris II and the other trustees of the province. This completed the yard, which became the site of the State House and its surrounding public space.

In 1768, he was elected as a member of the American Philosophical Society.

Allen was appointed as Chief Justice of the colony's Supreme Court, serving from 1751 to 1774. He resigned due to increasing tensions resulting from his Loyalist beliefs and health concerns. He was succeeded by Benjamin Chew.

In 1760, encouraged by William Smith, Allen sponsored the young painter Benjamin West's trip to Italy. He established a £100 line of credit for West and, in a letter of introduction in 1760, called him "a young ingenious Painter of this City, who is desirous to improve himself in that Science, by visiting Florence and Rome." A year later, Allen and his brother-in-law, the Governor James Hamilton, provided more money for West. He developed as one of the century's most important painters and, from 1792 until his death in 1820, served as president of Britain's Royal Academy. West referred to Allen as "the principal of my patrons."

Founding of Allentown, Pennsylvania

In 1762, Allen laid out the plan of present-day Allentown, Pennsylvania, which he then called Northampton Town. The property was part of a  plot which Allen had purchased in 1735 from his business partner Joseph Turner. He bought it from Thomas Penn, son of William Penn. Allen hoped that Northampton Town would displace Easton as the seat of Northampton County and also become a commercial center, due to its location along the Lehigh River and its proximity to Philadelphia.

Allen gave the property to his son James in 1767. Three years later, in 1770, James built a summer residence, Trout Hall, in the new town, near the site of his father's former hunting lodge.

On March 18, 1811, the town was formally incorporated as a borough. On March 6, 1812, Lehigh County was formed from the western half of Northampton County, and Northampton Town was selected as the county seat. The town was officially renamed "Allentown" in 1838 after years of popular usage. It was formally incorporated as a city on March 12, 1867. Today, Allentown is the third largest city in Pennsylvania. In 1959, William Allen High School, the largest public high school in Allentown, was named in his honor.

Mount Airy, Pennsylvania

Allen built a mansion and country estate, called Mount Airy, on Germantown Avenue in 1750. The area eventually took the estate's name, Mount Airy, as its own. The estate stood on what is today the campus of the Lutheran Theological Seminary at Philadelphia.

In 1774, Allen, a Loyalist, moved to England, where he published The American Crisis: A Letter, Addressed by Permission of the Earl Gower, Lord President of the Council, on the present alarming Disturbances in the Colonies, which proposed a plan for restoring the American colonies to rule under British Crown. He remained in England throughout most of the American Revolution, and did not return to Philadelphia until 1779, after the British Army had evacuated.

Personal life

On February 16, 1734, Allen married Margaret Hamilton, daughter of Andrew Hamilton, defense lawyer in the 1735 Zenger case and sister of James Hamilton. William and Margaret had six children: John, Andrew, James, William, Anne, and Margaret. Like their father, Allen's sons were Loyalists in the American Revolution.

Anne Allen married John Penn, a proprietor of the province with a one-fourth interest, who served as the last colonial governor of Pennsylvania. She lived with him for a time in exile in New Jersey during the British occupation of Philadelphia, but they returned to the city in 1788 and lived the remainder of their lives near there.

Death
On September 6, 1789, Allen died at home in the Mount Airy section of Philadelphia, at age 76, a year prior the end of the Revolutionary War in 1781. Allen enslaved an unknown number of people up until his death, and manumitted them in his will.

Honors
Allentown's William Allen High School in Allentown, Pennsylvania, the third-largest public high school in Pennsylvania, is named in his honor.
Allens Lane, a street in Mount Airy, Pennsylvania is named in his honor.
Richard Allen Lane station, a SEPTA regional rail station, was named in his honor until 2022 when it was renamed in honor of Richard Allen.

Izabrani (eng. The Chosen) televizijska je serija, koja se temelji na životu Isusa Krista, a osmislio ju je, režirao i napisao scenarij američki filmaš Dallas Jenkins. To je prva televizijska serija o životu Isusa Krista, koja je financirana putem crowdfundinga, kao najveći takav medijski projekt do sada. Posebnost je što se sve epizode mogu besplatno gledati putem mobilne aplikacije istoimenoga naziva.

Radnja

Prva sezona započinje 26. godine u Kafarnaumu na Galilejskom jezeru. Isus iz Nazareta navješta Evanđelje, poziva ljude na pokajanje i potvrđuje svoje učenje čudesima. Polako se pojavljuju razni likovi iz židovske populacije, vjerska elita i rimska administracija, koji moraju odlučiti kako će se postaviti prema Isusovom javnom djelovanju. Sve više ljudi shvaća, da je Isus - Mesija židovskog naroda kojeg se očekivalo stoljećima.

U drugoj sezoni Isus je napustio Kafarnaum i propovijedao u raznim selima i gradovima u pratnji svojih učenika. I ovdje čini razna čuda, pomaže ljudima u potrebi i mijenja postojeći društveni i vjerski poredak. Više puta naglašava :"Milosrđe mi je milo, a ne žrtva", a učenicima poručuje: "Naviknite se na neobično", kada su iznenađeni njegovim djelovanjem.

Serija se temelji na četiri evanđelja, koja su vjerno reproducirana u dijalozima i gestama. Uz to, sadržaji, koji se ne spominju u Evanđeljima, nadopunjuju se fiktivnim likovima i dijalozima.

Posljednje dvije sezone serije od sedam sezona trebale bi prikazati Isusovu muku i uskrsnuće.

Serija, osim što prikazuje život Isusa Krista, na poseban način se bavi i sa svim onima koji su bili u kоntаktu s Njim, posebno njegovim učenicima. Рrvа еріzоdа Izabranih іmаlа је ѕlјеdеću uvоdnu nароmеnu: "Іzаbrаnі" se tеmеlјe nа іѕtіnіtіm рrіčаmа іz еvаnđеlја Іѕuѕа Кrіѕtа. Nеkа ѕu mјеѕtа і vrijeme radnje kоmbіnіrаnі іlі ѕаžеtі. Dоdаnе ѕu роzаdіnѕkе рrіčе і оdrеđеnі znаkоvі іlі dіјаlоg. Меđutіm, ѕаv bіblіјѕkі, роvіјеѕnі kоntеkѕt і bіlо kоја umјеtnіčkа mаštа оѕmіšlјеnі ѕu dа роdržе іѕtіnu і nаmјеru Ѕvеtоg ріѕmа. Glеdаtеlје ѕе роtіčе dа čіtајu еvаnđеlја."

Autor serije, Dallas Jenkins, rekao je da je ovim projektom htio ponuditi portret Isusa kakav nismo mogli vidjeti u dosadašnjim filmskim prikazima Isusa. On je htio prikazati Isusa kroz oči onih su ga sreli i upoznali. Scenarij je rezultat pažljivog promišljanja utemeljnog na posjetima Svetoj Zemlji, molitvi, čitanju Svetog pisma i savjetima katoličkog svećenika (David Guffey), evangeličkog bibličara (Doug Huffman) i mesijanskog rabina (Jason Sobel).

Glavne uloge
Jonathan Roumie kao Isus: sin Blažene Djevice Marije i sv. Josipa, iščekivani Mesija i Sin Božji.
Shahar Isaac kao Šimun Petar: ribar u Kafarnaumu, Andrijin brat i jedan od dvanaest Isusovih učenika.
Elizabeth Tabish kao Marija Magdalena: obraćena žena iz Magdale i jedna od žena koja pomaže Isusu.
Paras Patel kao Matej: carinik (sakupljač poreza) u Kafarnaumu i jedan od dvanaest Isusovih učenika.
Noah James kao Andrija: ribar u Kafarnaumu, brat Šimuna Petra i jedan od dvanaest Isusovih učenika.

Kian Kavousi kao Veliki Jakov (sezona 1, epizode 5-8): Kavousi je drugi glumac koji je glumio Velikoga Jakova.

Glumci su namjerno odabrani, da predstavljaju ljude raznih nacija i boje kože, kako bi naglasili univerzalnost kršćanske vjere. Tako je npr. Shahar Isaac iz Gvatemale, Lara Silva iz Brazila, a Paras Patel, Shaan Sharma i Erick Avari porijekom su iz Indije, Shayan Sobhian je iranskoga porijekla, Janis Dardaris grčkoga porijekla, a većina glumaca je iz SAD-a. Uglavnom se radi o manje poznatim glumcima uz par iznimaka.

Pozadina
Izabrani je prva televizijska serija o životu Isusa Krista, koja je financirana putem crowdfundinga, s 11 milijuna američkih dolara.

Seriji prethodi pilot epizoda "Pastir", koja prikazuje božićnu priču. Snimanje epizoda odvijalo se u Teksasu i Utahu u SAD-u.

Posebnost je što se sve epizode mogu besplatno gledati putem mobilne aplikacije. Prva sezona prevedena je na hrvatski jezik.

Voldbæk (eller Voldbækken) er en 4,8 km lang bæk, der har sit udspring i Brendstrup Skov ved Hasle og har udløb i Århus Å lige vest for Brabrand Sø.

Restaurering og historie

Eldalen i Tilst var rammen om Voldbækken, som er det ældste registrerede vandløb. Den løber forbi den tidlige landsby Holmstrup (omkring år 800), der blev erstattet af Holmstrupgård i slutningen af 1200-tallet, på hvis marker der langs Voldbækken blev etableret de første bebyggelser på Holmstrup Mark efter udstykningen i 1927. Voldbækken er i dag delvis rørlagt, men kan stadig ses som et væsentligt element i Holmstrup Bakker, som er et af Aarhus Byråd pålagt ejerlav i villakvarteret fra en kommuneplan i 1978.

Voldbækken blev på herregården anvendt i forbindelse med park og med anlagte parksøer og fiskedamme. Til afvanding af området umiddelbart syd for herregården blev der drænet og ledt vand til større bassiner i området kaldet Bremerholm.

Der blev gravet tørv (til brændsel) og mergel i området, hvor Holmstrupgård og Grimhøjgård havde både mergelgrav og tørvegrave. i dag kan stederne stadig ses som små søer.

Siden april 2005 har Aarhus Kommune og Skov og Naturstyrelsen i tæt samarbejde gennemført flere anlægsprojekter i Skjoldhøjkilen vest for Aarhus. Skjoldhøjkilen er en del af True Skov. Voldbækken har blandt andet gennemgået en større restaurering, idet der er etableret 5 søer, tilplantet 55 hektar nye skovarealer i True Skov og anlagt kilometervis af nye stier og skovveje.

Forløbet

Fra Holmstrup Mark og det restaurerede forløb igennem Skjoldhøjkilen, fortsætter bækken videre ned til True Mølle ved Rætebøllevej. Her blev Voldbækken i begyndelsen af 1960'erne reguleret og omlagt, så der blev frit løb for fiskene. True Mølle blev anlagt 1843 og fungerede til 1931, hvor møllen nedbrændte. Fordi vandmængden var for ringe til vandmøllens drift, blev der anskaffet en petroleumsmotor, som så blev skyld i nedbrændingen. Møllen blev genopbygget og fungerede til slutningen af 1950´erne.

Bækken løber videre ned forbi Helenelyst og er også her tilbagerenovereret, så fiskene har fået gode betingelser, og bækørredderne trives. Bækken løber under Den jyske længdebane og gennem den gamle del af Årslev Skov. Fra sydsiden af baneskrænten og helt ned til Aarslev Vandmølledam var der fiskedamme, også kaldt Fiskeparken, men disse fiskedamme blev nedlagt, da Aarhus Kommune overtog hele området omkring 1958.

Aarslev Vandmølle, der blev bygget i 1856, ligger godt 1 km syd for True Vandmølle; Voldbæk flyder herefter under Silkeborgvej, der blev anlagt i 1854. Stenene i viadukten har tilhørt et dyssekammer fra oldtiden.
Den praktisk beliggende vandmølle blev en stor virksomhed, og den fik i 1908 et bageri tilknyttet, Aarslev Brødbabrik, som var beliggende for enden af Bagerivej. Årslev Vandmølle blev i februar 1958 købt af kommunen og nedlagt. I 1959 blev det hele revet ned på grund af en stor vejudvidelse af Silkeborgvej. Bækken fortsætter ned under viadukten, og lige til venstre på den anden side lå Brabrand Gasværk, som også brugte Voldbækken som afløb. Ca. 50 m længere mod syd ad Voldbækken var der også en opstemning, hvor bækken blev ledt ind i en dam, som tilhørte Aarslev Sav og Hammerværk, som på den vestlige af bækken havde bygget et karetmagerværksted, som byggede vogne.
Der var ved den nederste ende af dammen opsat en vandturbine, som gav kraft med remtræk til karetmagerværkstedets maskiner, men i 1894 havde man udvidet fabrikken så meget, at der blev anskaffet en stor dampmaskine, hvor vandet blev tilført et stort fyr, som lavede damp til dampmaskinen og til damptørring af træ i lukkede bokse, som blev brugt til produktionen, som i mellemtiden var blevet udvidet til også at lave have- og markredskaber, og hvor der til stadighed var ansat 40 – 60 mand. I april 1969 lukkede man fabrikken,og den b v nedbrudt, og jorden er i dag bebygget med rækkehuse.

Bækken løber så videre ned under vejkrydset Byleddet, Ørvadsvej og Søskovvej og ud i Århus Å som i 1962 blev flyttet 300 m mod nord til dens nuværende løb.

Mehren ist ein Ortsteil der sächsischen Gemeinde Käbschütztal im Landkreis Meißen.

Geographie
Der Ort Mehren liegt westlich der Kreisstadt Meißen auf etwa 200 Metern über Normalhöhennull am Jahnabach. Dieser Bach hat etwas westlich der Ortslage mehrere Quellarme, die dann nördlich der Ortsbebauung zusammenfließen und den Jahnabach bilden. Mehren befindet sich an der Kreisstraße 8073, die Altmohlis mit Löthain verbindet. Dort endet sie an der Bundesstraße 101, die weiter südlich bei Nossen Anschluss an die Bundesautobahn 14 hat.

Die Gemarkung Mehren grenzt im Norden an Mohlis, im Nordosten an Oberjahna, im Osten an Kaschka, im Süden an Löthain und im Südwesten an Stroischen. Im Nordwesten schließt sich der Ort Kaisitz an. Alle umliegenden Orte gehören als Ortsteile zu Käbschütztal.

Geschichte
Der Ort wurde erstmals im Jahre 1205 als in utroque Meran urkundlich erwähnt. Im Jahre 1378 gehörte Mehren zum Castrum Meißen in der gleichnamigen Markgrafschaft Meißen. Die Grundherrschaft übten anteilig das Erb- und Schulamt sowie das Rittergut Niederjahna aus. Ab Mitte des 16. Jahrhunderts war das Dorf zum Erbamt Meißen, später zum gleichnamigen Amt und Gerichtsamt gehörig. Durch die Sächsische Landgemeindeordnung von 1838 erhielt Mehren den Status einer Landgemeinde und wurde selbständig. Ab 1875 wird eine Zugehörigkeit des Ortes zur Amtshauptmannschaft Meißen angegeben.

Um den Rundweiler Mehren erstreckte sich 1900 eine 158 Hektar große Block- und Streifenflur, auf der die Bewohner des Dorfes Landwirtschaft betrieben. Kirchlich war Mehren ins Kloster St. Afra gepfarrt und gehört noch heute zur dortigen Kirchgemeinde. Die Eigenständigkeit des Ortes endete am 1. November 1935 mit der gemeinsamen Eingemeindung von Mehren, Löbschütz, Canitz, Pauschütz und Stroischen nach Löthain. Nach dem Ende des Zweiten Weltkrieges wurde Mehren Teil der Sowjetischen Besatzungszone und später der DDR. In der Kreisreform 1952 erfolgte eine Neugliederung des Landes. Löthain und seine Ortsteile wurden dem Kreis Meißen im Bezirk Dresden zugeschlagen. Löthain vereinigte sich am 1. März 1974 mit Jahna-Kagen zur Gemeinde Jahna-Löthain.

Nach Wende und Wiedervereinigung wurde Mehren Teil des neugegründeten Freistaates Sachsen und verblieb vorerst im Landkreis Meißen. In der Kreisreform 1994 wurde der Landkreis Meißen-Radebeul (ab 1996 Landkreis Meißen) aus dem alten Gebiet des Kreises Meißen und Teilen des Kreises Dresden-Land gebildet, dem Mehren bis 2008 angehörte. Ebenfalls 1994 vereinigten sich Jahna-Löthain, Krögis und Planitz-Deila zur neuen Großgemeinde Käbschütztal mit 37 Ortsteilen. Diese Gemeinde ist seit dem 1. August 2008 Teil des in der Kreisreform Sachsen 2008 aus Landkreis Meißen und Landkreis Riesa-Großenhain gebildeten dritten Landkreises Meißen.

In Mehren befindet sich ein ehemaliges Kaolinbergwerk mit Bergbaumuseum, das zusammen mit einem Wohnstallhaus im Ort in die Kulturdenkmalliste für Kabschütztal aufgenommen wurde.

Heribert Hölz (* 9. Oktober 1942 in Duisburg) ist ein deutscher Entwicklungshelfer, der sich für die Verbesserung der Lebenssituation von Menschen in Bosnien einsetzt. Seit 1973 lebt er in Neukirchen-Vluyn.

Einsatz für die Bosnienhilfe

"Als sich im Jahre 1991 auf dem Balkan der Krieg abzeichnete und die Bilder über das Fernsehen in die Wohnungen kamen, wollte ich unbedingt den bedrängten Menschen helfen. Ich wusste aus eigenem Erleben, was Not heißt. Im Februar 1992 bin ich dann zum ersten Male in den Krieg gefahren. Ich habe eine Reihe brenzliger Situationen überstanden und das Grauen erlebt. Inzwischen bin ich im Sommer dieses Jahres zum 72. Male auf dem Balkan gewesen, wo Menschen immer noch unbedingt Hilfe benötigen, weil der Staat total versagt", so beschreibt Hölz selbst in seinen 2012 im Anno-Verlag erschienenen Memoiren seine Motivation, sich für Bosnien zu engagieren. Hölz, der 1968 für die Caritas Duisburg tätig wurde, sah im Sommer 1991 die Bilder des Bosnienkrieges im Fernsehen. "Das war aber kein Film, das war Wirklichkeit, das war blutige Realität", so Hölz in seiner Erinnerung.

Hölz fährt seitdem regelmäßig auf den Balkan und hat inzwischen rund 2,5 Millionen Euro für die unter Armut leidenden Menschen gesammelt. Darüber hinaus hat er mehrere Projekte zur Selbsthilfe gestartet und daran selbst großen Anteil genommen. So hat er gemeinsam mit seiner Frau Ursula seit Mitte der 90er Jahre über 50.000 Gläser mit selbst gemachter Marmelade produziert und für die Bosnienhilfe verkauft. Von dem Verkaufserlös wird vor allem eine Suppenküche im bitterarmen Zenica finanziert.

Zudem begründete Hölz eine Kleinbauerngenossenschaft in Fojnica, sorgte dafür, dass pflegebedürftige Menschen im Umland von Banja Luka ambulant gepflegt werden und half beim Bau eines Kindergartens sowie einer Sozialstation der Caritas in Sarajevo mit.

Auszeichnungen
Bei einer überregionalen Aktion der Rheinischen Post wurde Heribert Hölz 2011 in Moers zu "unserem Besten" gewählt. 2011 wurde Hölz zudem Bürger des Jahres in Duisburg. 2008 wurde dem Ehepaar Hölz von der Caritas in Bosnien als Dank für das Engagement ein Denkmal gesetzt.
Ursula Hölz wurde für ihr Engagement für die Bosnienhilfe das Bundesverdienstkreuz verliehen. Heribert Hölz trägt die Verdienstmedaille.

Mirisavka (zlatno koljeno, lat. Anthoxanthum), biljni rod iz porodice trava (Poaceae). Raširen je po umjerenim i suptropskim krajevima Europe, Azije i Afrike. Neke vrste uvezene su u Australiju, Novi Zeland i Amerike.

U Hrvatskoj raste nekoliko vrsta (4), među kojima obična i osata mirisavka. Obična mirisavka u prošlosti se koristila za aromatiziranje duhana, pića, parfema i rublja. Ime roda dolazi od grčkog anthos (cvijet) i  xanthos (žučkast), po boji metlice.

Mirisavke su jednogodišnje bilje i trajnice kojih je priznato nasjmanje 13 ili najviše 52 vrsta. Rastu u busenima. Stabljika je uspravna ili povijena. Cvjetovi su skupljeni u klasolike metlice.

Rodu se priključuju i vrste roda Hierochloe, u hrvatskom jeziku poznatom kao darica, čiji je jedini predstavnik u Hrvatskoj južnjačka darica (A. australe, ili Hierochloe australis)

Das IG Field (zuvor Investors Group Field) ist ein Canadian-Football-Stadion in der kanadischen Stadt Winnipeg in der Provinz Manitoba. Hauptsächlich finden hier Canadian Football- und Fußballspiele statt. Die Hauptnutzer des neuen Stadions sind die Winnipeg Blue Bombers aus der Canadian Football League (CFL) sowie die Mannschaft der University of Manitoba, die Manitoba Bisons aus der kanadischen Universitätsliga U Sports. Hinzu kommen die Winnipeg Rifles aus der CJFL und die Manitoba Fearless der WWCFL. Der Eigentümer der Anlage ist die Triple B Stadium Inc., ein Konsortium aus der Stadt Winnipeg, der Provinz Manitoba, den Winnipeg Blue Bombers und der University of Manitoba.

Geschichte
Das von Raymond S.C. Wan entworfene Investors Group Field wurde auf dem Campus der University of Manitoba neben dem 1967 eröffneten University Stadium gebaut. Das Stadion besitzt eine Kapazität von 33.500 Plätzen, jeder mit Getränkehalter. Für Rollstuhlfahrer stehen 170 Plätze zur Verfügung. Auf den beiden Tribünen im Hintertorbereich sind HD-Videowände mit den Maßen 37 × 9 Meter installiert. Im Stadion sind 250 Fernseh-Monitore verteilt, damit man das Spielgeschehen überall verfolgen kann. Insgesamt gibt es 28 Wasch- und Toilettenräume, die alle per Rollstuhl zugänglich sind. Der Fan- und Ticketshop Bomber Store verfügt über etwa 370 Quadratmeter Verkaufsfläche. Durch zusätzliche Tribünen kann das Fassungsvermögen auf über 40.000 Plätze steigen. Es befinden sich 46 Luxus-Logen in der Veranstaltungsstätte. Die Baukosten beliefen sich auf 210 Millionen CAD. Mit einer großen Zeremonie wurde der Neubau Ende Mai 2013 eröffnet.

Das erste Spiel der Winnipeg Blue Bombers im neuen Stadion am 27. Juni 2013 verlor man mit 33:38 gegen die Montreal Alouettes. Das erste Fußballspiel fand am 8. Mai 2014 statt. Das Freundschaftsspiel der Frauen-Nationalmannschaften aus Kanada und den USA endete vor 28.255 Zuschauern mit einem 1:1-Unentschieden.

Im März 2014 vergab die CFL das 103. Spiel um den Grey Cup am 29. November 2015 an Winnipeg und das Investors Group Field. Das Stadion war zudem einer der sechs Austragungsorte der Fußball-Weltmeisterschaft der Frauen 2015. Am 23. Oktober 2016 soll im Investors Group Field das Freiluft-Eishockeyspiel NHL Heritage Classic zwischen den Winnipeg Jets und den Edmonton Oilers ausgetragen werden.

Im Mai 2019 wurde der Name der Anlage von Investors Group Field in IG Field geändert. Seit 2013 ist die IG Wealth Management Namenssponsor.

Rhythm Heritage war eine US-amerikanische Funkband.

Bandgeschichte
Rhythm Heritage wurde 1975 vom Musikproduzenten Steve Barri und dem Keyboarder Michael Omartian, der zuvor unter anderem für Steely Dan und The Four Tops gearbeitet hatte, gegründet. Hinzu kamen der Bassist Scott Edwards und Schlagzeuger Ed Greene. Bei Studioaufnahmen spielten zudem einige bekannte Musiker wie Victor Feldman und Ray Parker Jr. ihre Instrumente ein. Die Single Theme From S.W.A.T., die Titelmelodie der Fernsehserie Die knallharten Fünf verdrängte am 28. Februar 1976 Paul Simons 50 Ways To Leave Your Lover von der Spitzenposition der Billboard Hot 100. Für über eine Million abgesetzte Einheiten erhielt die Band eine Goldene Schallplatte. Im selben Jahr gelang mit der Titelmelodie zur Detektivserie Baretta ein weiterer Erfolg. Auch das Album erreichte knapp die Top 40. Späteren Veröffentlichungen war jedoch kein kommerzieller Erfolg beschieden, worauf sich die Band auflöste. Omartian wechselte erfolgreich in die Musikproduktion und produzierte später unter anderem Christopher Cross, Rod Stewart und Donna Summer.
