# Ana Borges

**Ana Catarina Marques Borges** (European Portuguese pronunciation: \[ˈɐnɐ ˈβɔɾʒɨʃ\]; born 15 June 1990) is a Portuguese footballer who plays as a right winger or a right-back for Sporting CP and the Portugal women's national football team. After initially joining on loan from Chelsea, she made the move back to Portugal permanent in July 2017, just before UEFA Women's Euro 2017. She is an important member of the Portugal national team with over 110 caps.

## Club career

At the 2015 FA Women's Cup Final, staged at Wembley Stadium for the first time, Borges appeared as a late substitute in Chelsea's 1–0 win over Notts County. It was Chelsea's first major trophy. In October 2015 she was an unused substitute for Chelsea's 4–0 win over Sunderland, which secured the club's first FA WSL title and a League and Cup "double".

In December 2016, Borges renewed her contract with Chelsea but agreed to move on loan to Sporting CP at the same time. On being introduced to the crowd at Estádio José Alvalade, Borges vowed: "I will do everything to help Sporting, the club of my whole life."

Borges was voted the 2017–18 Campeonato Nacional de Futebol Feminino Player of the Season in June 2018.

## International career

Borges scored on her debut for the Portugal women's national football team on 4 March 2009, a 2–1 win over Poland at the 2009 Algarve Cup. Two days later Portugal secured another 2–1 win, this time against Wales, and Borges scored again on the occasion of her second cap. She was named by coach Francisco Neto in the 23-player Portugal squad for UEFA Women's Euro 2017 in the Netherlands.

In November 2017 she made her 100th appearance for Portugal in a 2019 FIFA Women's World Cup qualification fixture against Moldova.

On 30 May 2023, she was included in the 23-player squad for the 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup.

# Haaren (Aachen)

The formerly independent municipality of **Haaren** lies four kilometers north of Aachen, into which it was incorporated in 1972.

Haaren lies at the fork of the Wurm, itself a tributary of the Rur, and a smaller stream that shares its name with the community. Two kilometers farther east lies the predominantly rural Verlautenheide community.

As of 31 December 2020, the community has 12,482 inhabitants spread over 880 hectares.

## History

During the Carolingian dynasty, the region now occupied by Haaren belonged to the Aachen Royal Court. Used as royal hunting grounds, it likely belonged to the Würselen royal estate of Wormsalt. The first written mention to Haaren occurs in 1152, in the medieval *Annales Rodenses*, which were written at the Rolduc Abbey. Until the 18th century, Haaren belonged (together with Verlautenheide and Würselen) a district of the Free Imperial City of Aachen. The area was occupied by the French in 1792, and again in 1794. Haaren and Verlautenheide were administered independently under the French *Mairie* system and, beginning in 1801, belonged officially to France after the Treaty of Lunéville. After the Treaty of Paris in 1814, the community became part of Prussia.

In the 1920s, Haaren was mainly a working-class suburb for factories on *Jülicher Straße* (Jülich Street) in northeast Aachen. At that time, Haaren was a stronghold of the Communist Party of Germany.

In October 1944, Haaren was occupied by American troops and came under American first, and then British, administration. After the war, Haaren/Verlautenheide became an independently administered community within the region of Aachen. Following the restructuring of the towns and districts around Aachen, Haaren was incorporated into the city of Aachen, beginning 1 January 1972.

## Buildings

There are several buildings of note in Haaren, such as the medieval Tithing Hall (*Zehnthof*), where farmers would submit goods that they were legally obligated to tithe. Additionally, the Catholic Church of St Germanus is a neo-gothic structure that was erected in 1890-92, heavily damaged in 1944, and rebuilt in 1948.

*Gut Überhaaren* is the oldest estate in Haaren, and lies on *Auf der Hüls* Street, formerly South Street (*Südstraße*). The keystone above the main entrance bears the inscription “1692”, but the estate was listed in the directory of the city of Aachen as early as the 13th century.

The Welsh Mill (*Welsche Mühle*) is the only water mill in Aachen whose mill wheel is still in operation.

## Notable persons

* Viktor Brack (1904–1948), SS-Oberführer (senior colonel) and defendant in the Doctors' Trial, a subset of the Nuremberg Trials, executed for war crimes
* Jakob Dautzenberg (1897–1979), Communist and WWII resistance fighter
* Carlo Graaff (1914–1975), FDP Politician (FDP), member of parliament, and Minister of Economy of Lower Saxony
* Josephine Koch (1815–1899), Catholic nun, founder of the Franciscan Women of the Holy Family (*Franziskanerinnen von der Heiligen Familie*), born in Haaren

## Schools

Haaren has altogether four schools: the *Gemeinschaftsgrundschule Am Haarbach* (an elementary school), the *Lindenschule* (a special education school with an emphasis on language), as well as the vocational schools *Mies-van-der-Rohe-Schule* and the *Berufskolleg für Gestaltung und Technik*.

## Sports

In Haaren, there is the *DJK FV Haaren 1912* sports club. The group offers competitive sports such as Association football, Tennis and Hapkido, a Korean martial art. Additionally, they offer recreational sports and activities, such as track and field, dance aerobics, and sports badges.

## Transport

Federal Highway 264 passes through Haaren on its way from Cologne to Liège. This road follows the same path as one that existed during the time of Ancient Rome. Public transport within Haaren is operated by ASEAG. In 2021 there are five bus stops: "Haaren Markt" being the central stop, operated by the lines 1, 7, 11, 21, 30, 31 and 41. Line 11 and 21 usually depart every 30 minutes, line 1, 31 and 41 every 60 minutes and line 7 and 30 only once a day. The other stops are "Denkmal" and "Haarberg" (Lines 11 and 21), "Tonbrennerstraße" (Lines 1, 7, 31 and 41) and "Bogenstraße" (Line 30 only - once a day) Also the Expressbus 220 to Jülich passes through the village center but doesn't stop there anywhere. Though Haaren lies directly at the railway track from Aachen North Station to Jülich, there has never been a railway station for passenger transport on this line until it was closed in 1981. Nowadays, this track is a bicycle path.

# History Trek

**History Trek: A Canadian History Site** is a bilingual (French and English) web portal made for children, containing reliable sources about Canadian history. It was developed by researchers at McGill University with the help of students who ranged from 9 to 12 years of age. This is an example of an intergenerational design team, directly involving a sample of their user population within their team. As such, History Trek was designed "by children for children".

## Development

The development of History Trek was funded by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada and took place between 2002 and 2007. The intergenerational design team, called the "Web Wonders", consisted of McGill researchers and a sample of student users. This design "team was led by Andrew Large and Jamshid Beheshti" whose primary goal was to make an informational portal website that children would both want to use and know how to use. Potential users were included in the History Trek development process to determine the visual design, use of terminology, and methods of information retrieval.

## Methods of information retrieval

Based on the research done during development, and in order to support both information retrieval and browsing, History Trek incorporated four methods to retrieve information:

* Keyword search
* Advanced search
* Topic search
* Alphabetical search

# Ana Book Store

The **Ana Book Store** is a second-hand bookstore in stall 1, floor 5 of Far East Plaza, 14 Scots Road, Singapore. The store is owned by a 70-year-old Bengali man named Mohammad Noorul Islam. It is the last second-hand bookstore in Orchard Road. The name, Ana, came from the owner's mother, Sultana.

## History

The original store, known as the Modern Book Store, was founded in 1939 by M. Mohammad Aksir, who came from East Pakistan (now Bangladesh) in 1938. He set up the store on Singapore’s Bras Basah Road. In 1978, M. Mohammad Aksir and his father died, leaving Aksir's son, Mohammad Noorul Islam, to run the store. Noorul Islam later changed the bookstore's name to the Ana Book Store. In 1993, when the building housing the original shop was destroyed, the store was moved to Far East Plaza. Customers called Noorul Islam the "Mr Bean of Singapore", something that local newspapers caught on to, providing more publicity for the shop.

# Grevillea floribunda

***Grevillea floribunda***, commonly known as **seven dwarfs grevillea**, is a species of flowering plant in the family Proteaceae and is endemic to eastern Australia. It is a spreading shrub with oblong to egg-shaped leaves with the narrower end towards the base and groups of six to twenty flowers covered with rusty brown hairs.

## Description

*Grevillea floribunda* is a spreading shrub that typically grows to a height of 0.4–1.8 m (1 ft 4 in – 5 ft 11 in). Its leaves are oblong to egg-shaped, mostly 20–80 mm (0.79–3.15 in) long and 2–20 mm (0.079–0.787 in) wide and softly-hairy on the lower surface. The flowers are arranged in groups of six to twenty, usually at the end of branches, the perianth is greenish and covered with woolly, rusty-brown hairs and the pistil is 9.0–19.5 mm (0.35–0.77 in) long. The ovary is sessile and the style is reddish. Flowering occurs in all months with a peak in spring and the fruit is a hairy follicle 10.5–17 mm (0.41–0.67 in) long.

## Taxonomy

*Grevillea floribunda* was first formally described in 1830 by Robert Brown in his *Supplementum primum Prodromi florae Novae Hollandiae*. The specific epithet means "profusely flowering".

In 1994, Peter M. Olde and Neil R. Marriott described two subspecies of *G. floribunda* and the names are accepted by the Australian Plant Census:

* *Grevillea floribunda* R.Br. subsp. *floribunda*
* *Grevillea floribunda* subsp. *tenella* Olde & Marriott

## Distribution and habitat

Seven dwarfs grevillea grows in forest and woodland and is widespread on the tablelands and western slopes of New South Wales and in south-eastern Queensland.

# George Chaworth, 1st Viscount Chaworth

**George Chaworth, 1st Viscount Chaworth** of Armagh (c. 1568 – 3 July 1639) was an English politician who sat in the House of Commons between 1621 and 1624 and was raised to the peerage as Baron Chaworth and Viscount Chaworth.

## Background and early life

Chaworth was the son of John Chaworth of Southwell, Nottinghamshire and his wife Jane Vincent. He matriculated at Trinity College, Oxford on 4 March 1586, aged 17 and was admitted to Gray's Inn in 1605. He was knighted at Greenwich on 29 May 1605 and was awarded MA at Oxford University on 30 August 1605.

## Career

Chaworth was Constable of Bristol Castle between 1 April 1616 and 1639. The National Archives contains a volume of copy letters, expense accounts and narrative record by him of his mission as privy councillor to Brussels as Ambassador Extraordinary to the Archduchess Infanta Isabel when her husband Albert VII, Archduke of Austria died in 1621. Chaworth was to attempt negotiations for Spain's withdrawal from the Rhine Palatinate, and subsequently to negotiate a treaty with Spain. His account includes observations on his travels in France and the Netherlands.

In 1621 Chaworth was elected Member of Parliament (M.P.) for Nottinghamshire. In 1624 he was elected MP for Arundel. He was created 1st Viscount Chaworth of Armagh, and 1st Baron Chaworth of Tryme on 4 March 1628. His main residence was Wiverton Hall in Nottinghamshire. He was High Sheriff of Nottinghamshire between November 1638 and 1639.

Chaworth died at the age of about 70 at Bath, Somerset and was buried on 15 July 1639 in St. Andrew's Church, Langar, Nottinghamshire.

## Family

# History Teachers' Association of Victoria

The **History Teachers' Association of Victoria** (HTAV) is a professional association representing and supporting teachers of history in Victoria, Australia. The HTAV was founded by a group of teachers and was incorporated in Melbourne in 1980. As of 2013, has over 700 members and 11 members of staff.

## Publications

The association has two ongoing publications. *The Bulletin*, a newsletter, published eight times a year, and *Agora*, the quarterly journal. Both publications provide members with information relevant to the teaching of history.

## History

The History Teachers’ Association of Victoria was incorporated as a legal entity in November 1980. Like any historical development this date, at first glance, appears somewhat arbitrary. It neglects the longer pre-history of causation and origin and tells little about the nature of the organisation.

This prehistory was long, dating back to the 1950s and the foundation of the Victorian Historical Association. It was during this rather lengthy period of evolution between the 1950s and 1980 that the aims, character and activities that form the modern HTAV were defined. Even the most cursory of glances highlights the continuities of this history.

## The Bulletin and Agora

The aims of the Victorian Historical Association were articulated clearly in its first Bulletin, published in October 1959, when the association was at least eight years old. This document proclaimed that 'This association of school and university history teachers is concerned to provide history teachers with a forum in which they can discuss professional matters. To this end it holds a number of meetings throughout the school year, sponsors lectures, discussions, film nights and displays.'

Agora, the association's journal, first appeared nearly a decade later. As if dropping from some point in the future, perhaps the 1980s, maybe the 1990s or could it be last week, the opening sentence declared 'Whether we like it or not History as a subject in the schools appears to be under attack. But why?...' This 1967 statement certainly suggests continuity over time. In addition to the editorial which has been quoted, this first issue contained articles by Wes Blackmore, then the Senior History Master at Yarra Valley Church of England Grammar School, Professor N. D. Harper and Lloyd Evans. Agora underwent a number of change formats over the next forty odd years before it became the glossy quarterly we recognise today. Unsurprisingly given that its history traverses decades, editors also changed. Nonetheless, from the first issue Agora has remained a cornerstone of the service the association provides its members.

The publishing activities of the association expanded through the late 1960s. In 1967 it produced two regular publications, Historian and Agora. Two years later these were to be joined by a third, the Journal of History for Senior Students, which was to be edited by Don Gibb from its inception.

## 1960s & 1970s

In 1968, attempts were made to establish regional groups, ten in total, but these seem to have been relatively unsuccessful. At that year's AGM, a constitution for the association was adopted, formalising the VHA's existence.

The 1970s, despite concerns about the threat to History in schools voiced in the late 1960s, feature continuing growth and expansion of the association's activities although the decade appears to have culminated in crisis. Student 'seminars' in Australian history were held for the first time in the third (last) term of 1971 at Latrobe and Monash Universities, with approximately 1800 students attending. These figures are certainly a high-water mark although if the number of students attending VCE lectures in 2004 were totalled we would appear to be continuing to grow, albeit at a significantly more modest rate.

In terms of membership, the association continued to grow throughout the decade. By 1972, AGM membership climbed to 673. In 1975, when the VHA moved to premises at 85 Howard St., North Melbourne, which it shared with the Geography Teachers Association, membership had risen to 945, and was to reach 1144 by 1979.

Moves were made to set up a national association of History teachers, and the VHA was given the task of drawing up a draft constitution for the proposed body, which was to have been launched at Sydney University in May 1973. Ultimately, this national body was formed and exists today as the History Teachers’ Association of Australia. The VHA hosted the HTAA National Conference from 26–30 May 1978. This close association with the national body continued over subsequent decades with the HTAV hosting national conferences on a number of occasions, most recently in 2004.

While the 1970s membership figures and student lecture numbers suggest a thriving organisation, 1978–79 was described in the president's Report as a 'challenging year' during which it 'survived financial crisis'. That period of crisis seems to have led to a desire to reform the organisation with a new name and identity – the History Teachers’ Association of Victoria. So through crisis and a lengthy incubation, in November 1980, the organisation now known as the HTAV was established with Bob Neal as its first president.

## 1980s

With a new identity as the HTAV, during the 1980s the association continued to evolve towards its current form. Perhaps the most enduring legacy was the 1986 acquisition of a permanent address for the organisation, 'The Bakery' at 402 Smith St, Collingwood. This premise has remained the association's home for nearly twenty years and would be barely recognisable by those who knew it then. Somewhat dishevelled, it was transformed in 2003 to include carpets, air-conditioning and retail outlets below.

From around the mid-1980s, with Tim Gurry in the role of the executive officer, the association expanded its repertoire of activities. While continuing to conduct professional development and publishing Agora the activities of the association expanded to the point that in the early 1990s, under the supervision of Bob Lewis, the publication of teaching resources and education kits constituted nearly half of the association's income in any one year.

## 1990s

In the early 1990s the threat seemed to be coming from 'Australian Studies'; the HTAV mobilised to meet it by running conferences on how it could be used to increase the amount of History being taught. Most conferences during this period were held at the Collingwood Football Club, of which the association was a member. The position of Extension Education Officer became a fully funded Departmental appointment advertised statewide, and Tim Gurry was appointed to the position for three years.

The mid-1990s were a difficult period. In 1992, Jonathan Tapp, an inspiring teacher from Trinity, was elected president, but early in his term of office he fell ill and died of cancer early the following year. Collingwood Football Club became a difficult venue once poker machines were installed, and after a long search a move was made to the Veneto Club in Bulleen. In 1994 the association lost half of its funding for the EEO position, and had to make up the shortfall rather than have a half-time EEO. At the end of 1994 Tim Gurry resigned as executive director.

The loss of considerable state government funding during the early 1990s however meant that there was no longer the same level of government support for the association. The decline in education budgets also meant that levels of membership declined through the second half of the 1990s. This had rather significant implications for the financial viability of the association. This is perhaps nowhere more vividly illustrated than in the annual reports of the late 90s when the association experience a loss of over $60,000.

Despite the financial constraints of the 1990s, under the successive leaderships of John Cantwell and Jacqualine Hollingworth, the HTAV continued to provide for the needs of its membership and the wider History teaching community. As an organisation it represented teachers of History in the development of the Victorian Certificate of Education, the Curriculum and Standards Framework (CSF) and it successor the CSFII and more recently AUSVELS. It also continued to support classroom teachers by publishing an array of resources, Agora and conducting professional development and student lectures.

| *The Encyclopedia of Popular Music* |  |

AllMusic reviewer Alex Henderson stated "Spirituality is a big part of Kalaparusha Maurice McIntyre's *Humility in the Light of the Creator*, a superb inside/outside date that is arguably his finest, most essential album. Recorded in 1969, this AACM classic owes a lot to the spiritual music of the Middle East, Asia, and Africa, and there are times when the Chicago saxophonist also blends avant-garde jazz with Native American elements. ... *Humility* is often dissonant without ever being claustrophobic. ... McIntyre has a lot to be proud of, but if you were limited to owning only one of his albums, *Humility* would be the best choice".

On *All About Jazz*, Derek Taylor said "*Humility* may have been McInytre's first session as a leader, but the music and musicianship yield the mark of a completely mature player from the outset. Adding to the indispensability of the date is a who's who of AACM heavyweights on hand to lend their talents to the already boiling creative pool".

*JazzTimes'* Duck Baker noted "most listeners will have heard enough of the chanting style of George Hines after one track on *Humility in the Light of the Creator* and, unfortunately, there are three in total, none of which get easier to listen to with the passage of time. This was an LP that got worn out on one side, as everything else about it is great. The long concluding suite is a knockout; it features such luminaries as Leo Smith, Malachi Favors, John Stubblefield and pianist Amina Claudine Myers. McIntyre's tenor style is strong and well defined. The good stuff here is worth hearing; just use the skip button for the others".

There, he played college football under Jim Tatum and earned varsity letters in 1950 and 1951. In the 1950 upset win against second-ranked Michigan State, Ladygo returned an interception 23 yards for a touchdown. Against George Washington, he had a fumble recovery. In the 1951 season, he recovered a fumble against Washington & Lee in their end zone for Maryland's first touchdown of the year.

## Professional career

### Pittsburgh Steelers

The Pittsburgh Steelers selected Ladygo with the 186th overall pick in the 16th round of the 1952 NFL draft. In June, he signed a contract with the franchise. He played three seasons for the Steelers from 1952 to 1954 as a right guard. In 1952, he played in twelve games and returned one kick for four yards. In August 1953, Ladygo was named among five "of the brightest names on the Steelers roster", who remained unsigned because they were dissatisfied with their contract offers. Owner Art Rooney, however, expected them to sign after the start of training camp. Ladygo suffered a broken leg, and did not see game action during the 1953 season. In 1954, Ladygo returned to play in all twelve games.

### Ottawa Rough Riders

In 1955, he played for the Ottawa Rough Riders of the Canadian Football League. The Detroit Lions traded a future draft pick to obtain Ladygo's rights before the season, but he stated that it did not change his plans to play in Canada. He said, "I have not signed any contract with Pittsburgh and certainly not with Detroit. The Steelers exercised their option on me last May but I don't feel this entitles the club to my services. I want to play with Ottawa and intend to do so." During the 1955 season, he returned one interception 12 yards. In September, the *Ottawa Citizen* "put down Pete Ladygo as the outstanding Ottawa lineman." He recovered a fumble against the Hamilton Tiger-Cats, which was later converted into a score. In an "improved" Ottawa squad's rematch against Hamilton, Ladygo, Joe Moss, and Avatus Stone played 55 of the 60-minute game, and the *Ottawa Citizen* appraised that "they were all immense."

After his season in Canada, Ladygo returned to Keyser, West Virginia,with his wife Jackie, where he worked as a teacher and football coach at Bruce High School in Westernport, Maryland, and as an assistant football coach at Potomac State. He was inducted into the Potomac State College Athletic Hall of Fame in 1988. He died in Keyser on August 22, 2014.

# Norwegian-American Lutheranism

**The Norwegian Lutheran Church in the United States** is a general term to describe the Lutheran church tradition developed within the United States by immigrants from Norway.

## Background

Most Norwegian immigrants to the United States, particularly in the migration wave between the 1860s and early 20th century, were members of the Church of Norway, an evangelical Lutheran church established by the Constitution of Norway. As they settled in their new homeland and forged their own communities, however, Norwegian-American Lutherans diverged from the state church in many ways, forming synods and conferences that ultimately contributed to the present Lutheran establishment in the United States.

## Early foundations

The first organized emigrants from Norway to the United States were religious dissenters on the *Restauration* during 1825. It is widely considered that many of them had Quaker sympathies, but it is also clear that many were Haugeans, adherents of the lay preacher Hans Nielsen Hauge, who was a devout Lutheran but at odds with the established Norwegian State Church. Many of these emigrants subsequently relocated to the Fox River Settlement in LaSalle County, Illinois. By most accounts, the first minister at Fox River was a layman by the name of Ole Olsen Hetletvedt (1797–1854), a Haugean in leaning. He was one of the early Norwegian settlers who had crossed the Atlantic Ocean in 1825 onboard the *Restauration*.

In 1839, Elling Eielsen, a lay preacher, was a leader in the Haugean pietistic state church reform movement which encouraged evangelism and vigorous lay leadership. He made it his mission to return the growing Fox River Norwegian colony to the Lutheran fold. He organized a house of assembly and was ordained a Lutheran pastor in 1843 in the German-Lutheran tradition. The Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, known as the Eielsen Synod, founded in 1846 at the Jefferson Prairie Settlement, was named in his honor. Eislsen was resident pastor at Jefferson Prairie from 1846 to 1872.

The Jefferson Prairie Settlement Lutheran Church was organized in 1844. Claus Lauritz Clausen accepted a call during 1846 from Norwegian-settlers at Jefferson Prairie. Clausen relocated from the Muskego Settlement and made this the center for his activities among the settlements in southern Wisconsin and northern Illinois, remaining until 1853. Johannes Wilhelm Christian Dietrichson organized Koshkonong, Luther Valley, and eight other congregations in the state of Wisconsin and served as pastor at Koshkonong from 1846 until 1850.

In February 1853, several Lutheran ministers including Claus Lauritz Clausen, Hans Andreas Stub, A. C. Preus, Herman Amberg Preus, G. F. Dietrichson, Jacob Aall Ottesen, and R. D. Brandt organized the Synod of the Norwegian Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, commonly known as the Norwegian Synod. It Jacob Aall Ottesen was organized at Koshkonong and Luther Valley near the Jefferson Prairie Settlement. Among the first denominational leaders was Ulrik Vilhelm Koren. The Synod adopted the rituals of the Church of Norway. The Eielsen Synod struck an uncompromising doctrinal line for many Norwegian immigrants. In 1848, Paul Andersen and Ole Andrewson broke out of Eielsen's Synod and started the first Norwegian and Scandinavian Church in Chicago, joining the Franckean Synod. The Frankean Synod was noted for its socially progressive views. They stayed in this synod for only three years before joining the Northern Illinois Synod. In 1860, the same group started yet another synod, the Scandinavian Augustana Synod, over theological differences with English speaking Lutherans, who they believed were not faithful to the Augsburg Confession.

In 1870, the Norwegian and Danish churches left the Scandinavian Augustana Synod and formed two new church bodies: the Conference of the Norwegian-Danish Evangelical Lutheran Church of America and Norwegian Augustana Synod.

The Hauge Synod was formed in 1876 following a split with the Eielsen Synod. The Hauge Synod was named after Norwegian revivalist lay preacher Hans Nielsen Hauge. Red Wing Seminary, located in Red Wing, Minnesota, was the Hauge Synod educational center. The United Norwegian Lutheran Church of America was the result of the union formed in 1890 between the Norwegian Augustana Synod, the Conference of the Norwegian-Danish Evangelical Lutheran Church of America, and the Anti-Missourian Brotherhood which had dated from 1887.

## Norwegian-language churches

Although many churches in America have their roots with Norwegian settlers, most have abandoned the Norwegian language in the primary service. Two churches in the United States still use Norwegian as a primary liturgical language. They are Den Norske Lutherske Minnekirke, built in 1912 in Chicago, Illinois, and Den Norske Lutherske Mindekirke in Minneapolis, Minnesota, formed in 1922.

title: Protea magnifica

abstract: Protea magnifica, commonly known as the queen protea, is a shrub, which belongs to the genus Protea within the family Proteaceae, and which is native to South Africa. The species is also called queen sugarbush, bearded sugarbush or woolly beard. In the Afrikaans language the vernacular names baardprotea, baardsuikerbos, baard-suikerbos, koninginprotea, suikerbosprotea, wolbaardsuikerbos and wolbaard-suikerbos have all been recorded for the plant.

# Protea magnifica

***Protea magnifica***, commonly known as the **queen protea**, is a shrub, which belongs to the genus *Protea* within the family Proteaceae, and which is native to South Africa.

The species is also called **queen sugarbush**, **bearded sugarbush** or **woolly beard**. In the Afrikaans language the vernacular names *baardprotea*, *baardsuikerbos*, *baard-suikerbos*, *koninginprotea*, *suikerbosprotea*, *wolbaardsuikerbos* and *wolbaard-suikerbos* have all been recorded for the plant.

## Taxonomy

The International Plant Names Index attributes the authorship of *Protea magnifica* to Henry Cranke Andrews, but the South African National Biodiversity Institute attributes it to Johann Heinrich Friedrich Link.

## Description

It grows either as an erect or as a sprawling shrub, growing up to 2.5 metres (8.2 ft) in height. The inflorescences are specialised structures called pseudanthia, also known simply as flower heads, containing hundred of reduced flowers, called florets. It is monoecious, both sexes occur in each flower. It blooms in spring, from June to January. The fruit, containing a seed, is kept within the old, dried infructescence which is retained persistently on the plant.

## Distribution

This plant is endemic to the Cape Region of South Africa, where it only occurs in the Western Cape province. It occurs in the Koue Bokkeveld to Hottentots Holland, Klein Swartberg, Riviersonderend, Franschhoek and central Langeberg mountain ranges. It is spatially distributed as isolated stands.

## Ecology

It is pollinated by birds. The wildfires which periodically move through the land in which the shrub grows destroy the adult plants, but the seeds can survive such an event. When released, the seeds are dispersed by means of the wind.

### Habitat

It grows high in the mountains on hot, dry mountain slopes near the snow line, at altitudes between 1,200 and 2,700 metres. It exclusively occurs in a fynbos habitat, but it occur in many different sub-types of this general habitat. It usually grows in substrates derived of sandstone, but may sometimes grow on quartzite.

## Uses

This the most prized cut flower in the trade. In 1998, the best flower heads were still said come from the wild, and were often harvested for this purpose.

## Conservation

*Protea magnifica* is not threatened, and is locally common. As of 2019 the total population numbers were believed to be stable. The South African National Biodiversity Institute first assessed this species for the Red List of South African Plants in 2009, rating the conservation status as *least concern*. In 2019 this assessment was reiterated.

# George Osbaldeston the elder

**George Osbaldeston** (c.1753–1793) was an English landowner and politician. To 1770 he was known as **George Wickins**. He was father of George, known as Squire Osbaldeston, the noted sportsman.

## Life

He was the son of John Wickins, vicar of Petworth, Sussex, and his wife Philadelphia Mitford. He inherited in 1770 estates from Fountayne Wentworth Osbaldeston, who was his maternal great-uncle, and changed his surname accordingly. Shortly before that he had been admitted, age 16, to St John's College, Cambridge; he matriculated there in 1773, graduating Master of Arts (MA) *per literas regias*. He resided at Hutton Buscel. In 1783 he succeeded his father in further Osbaldeston property.

Osbaldeston went into politics with the backing of the Fox–North Coalition in November 1783, ahead of the 1784 British general election. He stood for the local set of Scarborough, rather than the rotten borough offered him, Hedon, and was elected. As an independent, he supported the Pitt administration. In 1790 he did not defend his seat. He died on 14 July 1793.

## Family

Osbaldeston married Jane Head, daughter of Sir Thomas Head of Langley Hall, Berkshire. George Osbaldeston the sportsman was their son.

The boundary between the jurisdiction of the Royal Bavarian State Railways and the Prussian state railways crossed the line shortly before the station at Marxgrün at kilometre post 68.24, calculated from the original start of the route in Triptis. This spot also marked the subsequent boundary between the Reichsbahn divisions of Erfurt and Regensburg.

### Second World War

During the Second World War, the Triptis–Marxgrün railway was used as an alternative route for north–south traffic, because it was a long way from centres of population that were vulnerable to bombing raids. In order to increase the capacity of the line, a further two crossing stations were established during the war. Even Adolf Hitler's special train regularly used this route on the way from Berlin to Berchtesgaden. During the day the train was stored in the Kesselfels tunnel to protect it from bombing, because for safety reasons the train only ran at night. During these times no other traffic moved on the line.

### Division of Germany

After the occupation of Thuringia by the Red Army in June 1945 the Bavarian-Thuringian state border became the demarcation line between the American and Soviet-occupied zones in Germany. As a result, railway traffic across the border ceased on 3 June 1945. The boundary between the two railway divisions was later adjusted to align with the state border which later became the Inner German Border.

#### Triptis–Blankenstein in Thuringia

The northern section of the line continued to be important for passenger and goods services into the 1990s. In the timetable the route was listed as KBS 534 Triptis–Lobenstein (Thür). The rest of the line to Blankenstein was part of route no. KBS 565 Saalfeld–Lobenstein (Thür)–Blankenstein.

There were hardly ever any through trains between Triptis or Saalfeld and Blankenstein in GDR times. The station of Blankenstein ended up in the out-of-bounds area immediately adjacent to the so-called *Staatsgrenze West* (i.e. Inner German Border), which required police checks to be carried out on all passengers. For that reason, special trains ran between Lobenstein and Blankenstein. This way of operating continued until the political changes or *Wende* in East Germany in 1990.

On 24 May 1998 the state of Thuringia withdrew passenger services between Triptis and Unterlemnitz. Since then only the section from Unterlemnitz to Blankenstein has been worked; by Regionalbahn trains on the Saalfeld–Blankenstein route. At the end of that year, goods traffic between Triptis and Ebersdorf-Friesau also ceased. From that time on Ebersdorf-Friesau station, with its siding to a large sawmill, was served from Saalfeld. That meant the line between Triptis and Lobenstein was *de facto* empty of traffic. Shortly before its closure, however, several heavy load transporters passed through to the transformer station of Remptendorf. On 1 January 2005 this section was closed, however the tracks have yet to be lifted.

The German Regional Railway (*Deutsche Regionaleisenbahn* or *DRE*) has rented the closed section between Triptis and Ebersdorf-Friesau, initially until 31 December 2009 with the aim of preserving the trackbed. An important step in this regard was the decision of the Federal Administrative Court in Leipzig over an urgent appeal by the DRE, that the railway overbridge over the A9 motorway (BAB 9) at Mossbach would not be torn down as part of the widening of that motorway. However the reactivation of the line will not be supported by the Thuringian state parliament, because "the Remptendorf–Triptis section … is not important for transportation". In spite of that, at the end of October 2008, the DRE was able to agree with the Deutsche Einheit Fernstraßenplanungs- und Baugesellschaft mbH (DEGES) a railway crossing agreement that will see the demolition and subsequent rebuilding of the railway bridge over the BAB 9 in 2009.

In the current 2007/2008 Deutsche Bahn timetable the line from Triptis to Bad Lobenstein is number KBS 556.

#### Lichtenberg–Marxgrün in Bavaria

On the Bavarian side after the Second World War the only significant use of the line between Lichtenberg and Marxgrün was for local goods traffic. Since 23 May 1971 even that was withdrawn and the line closed. Shortly before Hölle station the siding of Wiede was installed which for a long time was used to transport carbonic acid made at the Wiede acid works served by the siding.

The dismantling of the track in the Höllental began in September 1982. On 30 October 1987 services to the firm of Wiede ended and the rest of the line was lifted. The bridges in the Hölle Valley were not demolished, but the tunnel was walled up for safety reasons.

After its final closure in 1971 a *Lokalbahn* working group (*Lokalbahn-Arbeitsgemeinschaft* or *LAG*) was founded in Hof, one goal of which was to organise a museum railway on the Hölle Valley railway. The home of the LAG was the engine shed at Marxgrün. Here there was already a 1937 steam engine from the Regensburg sugar factory. The maintenance of the line exceeded the financial means of the LAG. The locomotive shed in Marxgrün has meanwhile been cleared. The building is in a very dilapidated state.

The timber-framed station building in Hölle was to have been preserved and used as a guest house for visitors to the spa town. These plans, produced in 1977, could not however been put into effect. The building was finally demolished and the station yard turned into a car park.

I the former station of Lichtenberg there is an information centre for the Franconian Forest Nature Reserve, where a functioning model of the *Höllentalbahn*, in 1:87 (H0) scale, can be viewed. The layout is looked after by the *MEC 01 Münchberger Eisenbahnfreunde e.V.*. In front of Lichtenberg station, on a short piece of track, an old industrial locomotive (Lok 3; Cfl; Babelsberg 1969/219189; FLC - 92061) from the Rosenthal Cellulose and Paper Factory (ZPR) in Blankenstein as well as several coaches and wagons recall the days of the train in the Hölle Valley.

Currently the Deutsche Regionaleisenbahn is striving to take over the *Höllentalbahn* (Blankenstein–Marxgrün). (as at 06/2008)

## Prospects

The *Höllental Railway Network Initiative* wants to reactivate the line through the Höllental in order to generate an effective railway link between Thuringia and Bavaria, especially for goods traffic.

The Rosenthal Cellulose and Paper Factory in Blankenstein has a major interest in closing the gap in the network in the direction of Bavaria. Because 63% of its production is already transported by rail, this proportion would be further increased if there were a direct railway link to the south. The firm has therefore organised a *transport conference* to develop the infrastructure in the southern Saale-Orla-Kreis on 9 December 2008.

On 16 December 2008, the town of Naila demanded that the reactivation of the route between Marxgrün and Blankenstein be included in the regional plan for Upper Franconia-East (*Oberfranken-Ost*). This was founded in order to improve rail traffic between Bavaria and Thuringia especially with regard to tourism and goods traffic for the logging industry. Counter-arguments include the fact that the Hölle valley was declared a nature reserve in 1997.

## Locomotives

There were Prussian locomotives on the Hölle Valley railway in the early years:

Later the following standard locomotives (*Einheitslokomotiven*) were employed:

* BR 64 \- passenger train, tank locomotive (only Hof-Bad Steben)
* BR 86 \- goods train, tank locomotive

Diesel locomotives also found their way into the Hölle valley towards the end:
