# Vortech G-1

The **Vortech G-1**, also called the **Compcop G-1**, is an American helicopter that was designed in the 1970s. Plans for amateur construction were originally supplied by Compcop and today are provided by Vortech.

## Design and development

The aircraft was designed long before the adoption of the US FAR 103 Ultralight Vehicles rules, including the category's maximum empty weight of 254 lb (115 kg), but nonetheless complies with them. The aircraft has a standard empty weight of 150 lb (68 kg) and is billed as the "World's Tiniest Homebuilt Helicopter" by the plans supplier. It features a single main rotor and tail rotor, a single-seat open cockpit without a windshield, tricycle landing gear with main wheels and nose skid and a twin cylinder, air-cooled, two-stroke, single-ignition 40 hp (30 kW) Rotax 447 aircraft engine or Kawasaki 440 snowmobile engine. The 50 hp (37 kW) Rotax 503 can also be used.

The aircraft fuselage is made from bolted-together aluminum tubing. Its main rotor is 12 ft (3.7 m) in diameter. Fuel capacity is 5 U.S. gallons (19 L; 4.2 imp gal).

The plans supplier notes this warning:

> Vortech offers the G-1 plans as a curiosity for those interested in homebuilt helicopters because of its intriguing size and simplicity; however, Vortech has no direct experience with either the design or flight of this model and so cannot and does not endorse this as a proven aircraft. While people have reported building and flying this model, it appears that most of those flying versions were variations or enhancements of the original design.

# Nicolas Gisin

**Nicolas Gisin** (born 1952) is a Swiss physicist and professor at the University of Geneva, working on the foundations of quantum mechanics, quantum information, and communication. His work includes both experimental and theoretical physics. He has contributed work in the fields of experimental quantum cryptography and long-distance quantum communication over standard telecom optical fibers. He also co-founded ID Quantique, a company that provides quantum-based technologies.

## Biography

Nicolas Gisin was born in Geneva on 29 May 1952. He received a degree in mathematics and a master's degree in physics before receiving his Ph.D. in Physics from the University of Geneva in 1981. His dissertation concerned quantum and statistical physics. After several years in the software and optical communication industries, Gisin joined the Group of Applied Physics at the University of Geneva in 1994, where he started working in optics. Since 2000, he has been the Director of the Department of Applied Physics, leading a research group in Quantum information and quantum communication. The European Research Council awarded him with two successive ERC Advanced Grants. In 2009, he received the first biennial John Stewart Bell Prize and, in 2011, he received the prize of the Geneva City. In 2014, Switzerland awarded him the Swiss Science prize sponsored by the Foundation Marcel Benoist and delivered by the National Government.

On 17 July 2014, Gisin published his book, *Quantum Chance: Nonlocality, Teleportation, and Other Quantum Marvels*, in which he explains modern quantum physics and its applications without using mathematics or difficult concepts. The text has been translated from French into English, German, Chinese, Korean, and Russian.

Gisin played at the highest Swiss level and was president of Servette HC from 2000 to 2015, furthering his club to become the largest in Switzerland. In 2010 Servette HC was awarded the title “Club of the Year” by the European Hockey Federation. In 2014, the team won the Swiss championship for the first time in its century-long history.

## Research

* In 1995, Gisin transmitted a quantum cryptographic signal at a distance of 23 km over a commercial optical fiber under Lake Geneva. Later, his group extended this record to 67 km and 307 km using Plug-&-Play and Coherent One Way configurations for quantum key distribution.
* In 1997, Nicolas Gisin and his group demonstrated Bell inequality violations at a distance of over 10 km. This was the first time when quantum non-locality was demonstrated outside the lab; the distance was increased by about three orders of magnitude with respect to all previous experiments. This was followed by further experiments, ever strengthening the conclusion by excluding more and more sophisticated alternative models to quantum theory.
* In the early 2000s he was the first in demonstrating quantum teleportation over long distances. In the latter experiment the receiving photon was hundreds of meters away when the Bell state measurement that triggers the teleportation process was performed.
* The previous breakthroughs would not have been possible without single-photon detectors compatible with telecommunication optical fibers. When Gisin entered the field such detectors did not exist. Today, thanks to Gisin and his group at the University of Geneva, single-photon detectors at telecom wavelengths are commercially available.
* Nicolas Gisin’s work pushed optical fiber quantum communication almost to its limits. To go further one needs quantum memories and repeaters. His group invented an original quantum memory protocol using rare earth doped crystals and used it to demonstrate the first solid state quantum memory. Recently they entangled: first a photon with such a crystal, next two such crystals and finally teleported a photonic qubit into a solid-state quantum memory over a distance of 25 km.
* Schrödinger’s equation is a basic law of nature. Yet one may envisage that at a certain moment in the future novel discoveries may lead to its modification. The most natural such modification is introduction of non-linear terms. Another “Gisin theorem” states however that all deterministic nonlinear modifications of the Schrödinger equation necessarily activate quantum non-locality, leading to true violations of relativity.
* One of the most important characteristics of quantum information is the no-cloning theorem. Nicolas Gisin derived a bound on the fidelity of approximate quantum cloning from the relativistic no-signaling constraint.
* Nicolas Gisin contributed to relating non-locality to the security of quantum key distribution, notably with Antonio Acín, Valério Scarani, Nicolas Brunner and Stephano Pironio. This opened an entirely new field of research known as Device Independent Quantum Information Processing (DI-QIP).
* In 1984, Nicolas Gisin’s proposed stochastic Schrödinger equations and his subsequent work with Ian C. Percival is now widely used in the study of the dynamics of open quantum systems.
* Gisin invented a technique to measure Polarization Mode Dispersion (PMD) in optical fibers. This turned out to be an extremely important parameter of telecom fibers whose importance was initially underestimated. The technique was adopted as an international standard and was transferred to industry (first to a spin-off, next to the Canadian company EXFO). Still today it is the most used technique to characterize PMD. Being both a classical and quantum engineer, he applied the abstract concepts of quantum weak values to the field of classical telecommunication networks.
* In 2019, Nicolas Gisin demonstrated the existence of a new form of nonlocality in quantum networks
* In 2021, Nicolas Gisin proved that Real Quantum Theory, the theory obtained from quantum theory when complex numbers are replaced with real ones, cannot explain all the correlations which can be obtained in quantum networks, notably with Antonio Acín.

title: Paste paper

abstract: Paste paper is a type of surface design in which a colored, viscous media is applied directly to the surface of a paper sheet and modified with various tools and techniques to render an array of patterns and effects. It is sometimes confused with paper marbling, in which colored designs are created on a bath and then transferred to the paper surface. The term "paste paper" is used to refer to both the articles created using the technique and the technique itself, which has also been used to decorate wooden furniture. Paste papers are used as endpapers and covering papers in bookbinding, furniture linings, and wallpaper.

# Paste paper

**Paste paper** is a type of surface design in which a colored, viscous media (generally starch paste) is applied directly to the surface of a paper sheet and modified with various tools and techniques to render an array of patterns and effects. It is sometimes confused with paper marbling, in which colored designs are created on a bath and then transferred to the paper surface. The term "paste paper" is used to refer to both the articles created using the technique and the technique itself, which has also been used to decorate wooden furniture. Paste papers are used as endpapers and covering papers in bookbinding, furniture linings, and wallpaper.

## Production

As an historical and living art form, paste papers are produced with a variety of techniques, tools, and styles which have been openly modified, adapted, and re-imagined over time. Generally, a layer of colored starch paste is applied over the full surface of the paper sheet with a brush, after which this base layer can be further modified with brushes, combs, decorative stamps, fingers, and other implements. A common historical pattern called "veined" (German: geädert) was created by putting the pasted side of two sheets together, then peeling the sheets apart to create dynamic ridges and waves. Wooden blocks, wadded fabric, feathers, and kitchen utensils can be used to create unique effects, along with altering the consistency of the paste and the methods of application. Historical paste papers were generally produced with a starch paste and colorants from plant and mineral sources such as carmine, indigo, buckthorn, and Prussian blue; modern paste papers often utilize acrylic paints and experiment with media including methyl cellulose and other synthetic adhesives.

## History

The earliest extant examples of paste paper were produced in Germany in the early 17th century, where cities such as Augsburg were well-established in the production of printed textiles using paste colors. The technique of decorating paper with paste colors was quickly picked up for the production of playing cards and wallpapers, while papers made explicitly for the bookbinding trade became popular starting at the end of the 17th century. Production of these early papers is generally associated with Germany, Austria, and the Netherlands.

In 1764, the Moravian Brethren at Herrnhut settlement began producing paste papers for exportation. Papers produced there were of such a distinct quality and style that paste papers are sometimes generally referred to as "Herrnhuter papers", though their product was virtually never signed and their designs were widely copied. According to church ledgers, paste papers continued to be produced at Herrnhut until around 1824.

Paste papers experienced a resurgence of popularity during the Arts and Crafts movement of the late-19th and early-20th century, with many fine-press publishers producing papers for their publications. The Bird and Bull Press published a sample book of papers in 1975, and further attention was drawn to the technique through the work of makers and researchers including Rosamond Loring, Olga Hirsch, and Albert Haemmerle. Modern makers and researchers include Dirk Lange, Julia Rinck, Susanne Krause, and Madeleine Durham.

title: Heinrich von Wartenberg

abstract: Heinrich von Wartenberg was anti-abbot of the Abbey of Saint Gall from 1272 until 1274. Heinrich was a descendant of the noble family of the Wartenbergs from the area of Baar on the upper Danube. Initially, he was a priest on Reichenau island. He moved to Saint Gall before Abbot Berchtold, his relative, died. On 14 June 1272, he was elected abbot by the convent of the abbey. However, the ministeriales concurrently elected Ulrich von Güttingen instead. Ulrich found stronger support, which led to Heinrich fleeing the abbey. Bishop Eberhard of Constance gave him refuge in Arbon and Pope Gregory X sent Ludwig of Dillingen as an arbitrator to settle the emerging dispute. While the feud of the two abbots was already reaching destructive proportions, Heinrich died unexpectedly on 26 April 1274. He is buried in the Galluskapelle in Arbon, where Gallus, founder of Saint Gall, had last been active.

# Nick Russell (actor)

**Nicholas Russell** is an Australian television actor, producer and director from Melbourne. Known professionally as Nick Russell, he began his career aged twelve when he starred in the Nine Network children's series *Pig's Breakfast* as Rodney Green. He studied science/law at university and took a job with a law firm which filled his time between acting roles which included guest parts on the soap opera *Neighbours* and the comedy drama series *Sleuth 101*.

When he decided to focus solely on acting, Russell began to secure numerous television roles during 2014. His most prominent role came as Gabe Reynolds on the Seven Network drama series *Winners & Losers*. In 2018, he played Brody Schneider in the Network Ten drama series *Playing for Keeps*. Aside from acting, Russell owns a production company.

## Early life

Russell wanted to become an actor during high school. He attended a private school and became the school captain. Russell's drama teacher had received a casting call for the Nine Network children's series *Pig's Breakfast*. He put Russell forward and he secured his first acting role aged twelve. He was then credited as Nicholas Russell.

After leaving school, Russell decided to study a double science and law degree at Monash University. In 2011, he took work at a law firm in Melbourne. Russell practised law because he needed a profession in case his acting career was unsuccessful. In 2012, Russell thought that his career in law had overshadowed his acting career and decided to solely concentrate on gaining roles.

Russell lives in Melbourne and is married to solicitor Stephanie Russell. They have two children together.

## Career

Russell appeared in three short films during the 2000s titled *A World of His Own* (2000), *Soma* (2007) and *Signs* (2008). His television roles following *A Pig's Breakfast* include Johnny Brightstar in Nine Network series *The Saddle Club*, David in *My Brother Jack* and a small role in Showcase drama *Satisfaction*. In 2007, he appeared as Caleb Maloney in the soap opera *Neighbours*. He later appeared as Cary in the 2010 ABC1 comedy series *Sleuth 101*.

After leaving his law career permanently, Russell secured many roles. He played Vincent Foster in ABC drama series *The Doctor Blake Mysteries*, Andrew Hodson in the Nine Network drama *Fat Tony & Co.* and Damian in the Australian comedy show *Utopia*. Russell then joined the cast of the Seven Network drama series *Winners & Losers*, playing Gabe Reynolds. The character was originally intended to be a small role in which Gabe would be a one-night stand of main character Jenny Gross (Melissa Bergland). Producers liked the chemistry between the two and made Gabe a permanent role in the series. Russell also secured a lead role in the television pilot titled *Minimum Way* as Tim. The show focuses on the poor running of a dysfunctional city bar.

In 2018, Russell secured the guest role of Brody Schneider in the Network Ten drama series *Playing for Keeps*. In August that year it was announced that Russell would be appearing in a new series titled *Mr Black*. He played the role of Fin Cruickshank and the series debuted on Network Ten in 2019. He then had a guest role in the prison drama *Wentworth*. In 2019, Russell appeared as Jeff in a sketch on *The Yearly with Charlie Pickering*. The following year he appeared as Jeremy Payne in the main series *The Weekly with Charlie Pickering*. In 2021, Russel played the role of Charlie in an episode of comedy-drama *Spreadsheet*.

Russell co-owns a production company called "Tandem Media" alongside screen writer Nick Musgrove. Russell has served as a director for projects created by Tandem Media. He is also part of a comedy sketch production company known as "The Peloton", which includes himself, Musgrove, Tim McDonald, Tom Peterson and Vachel Spirason.

## History

This town was a stop on the Southside Railroad in the mid-nineteenth century. This became the Atlantic, Mississippi and Ohio Railroad in 1870 and then a line in the Norfolk and Western Railway.

Site of the Battle of Rice's Station, a minor engagement in the Appomattox Campaign of the American Civil War that was the immediate prelude to the Battle of Sayler's Creek. On the evening of April 6, 1865, General Robert E. Lee waited with General James Longstreet's Corps in Rice's Depot for the rest of the army to come up. Hearing heavy firing to the east, General Lee investigated the situation, taking General William Mahone's division with him. Lee rode about two miles back along the Rice-Deatonville Road to a high knoll above Big Sailor's Creek where he saw "teamsters without wagons, soldiers without rifles, and shattered regiments without officers" fleeing across the creek and up the hill.

He was reported to have said, "My God, has the army been dissolved?"

One of the men answered, "No, General, here are troops ready to do their duty." Nonetheless, Lee lost a fifth of his remaining army at the battle of Sailor's Creek. The Army of Northern Virginia surrendered three days later, ending the Appomattox Campaign and removing one of the Confederacy's most prominent armies and commanders from the field.

Rice is on the High Bridge Trail State Park, on the former path of the Southside Railroad, and has a large parking lot for access to the Trail.

title: This Is Ray Stevens

abstract: This Is Ray Stevens is the second album by Ray Stevens. It was released in 1963 by Mercury Records on the catalog numbers of MG 20828 and MG 60828. Like Stevens' previous album, 1,837 Seconds of Humor, all of the songs were written by Ray Stevens and published by Lowery Music Company, Inc. (BMI). The differences between both albums is that Stevens makes an attempt to prove his artistic versatility on this album by including six comical novelty songs and six ballads of serious music. The back of the album cover gives a description of Stevens' versatility as an artist and adds that a better title for the album would be Both Sides of Ray Stevens. Ironically, 13 years after this album's release, a collection of previously recorded songs entitled Both Sides of Ray Stevens was released. The album then provides information on the themes of the comedy songs and then information on the dramatic ballads. "Harry the Hairy Ape" is a tale of an escaped ape who likes to scare people in a park, is mistaken by a near-sighted DJ for a rock-and-roll singer, and then begins a music career. "The Weekend" is a song that satirizes how short a weekend is compared with other days; according to the album, Stevens sings it "to the tune of The Whiffenpoof Song." "The Deodorant Song" satirizes commercials about how to "smell pretty." "The Great Sebastian" is a tale of a tight-rope walker of a circus. "Speed Ball" is a tale of a motorcycle rider. "Soap Opera" is a satirization of the tragic, twisted stories in the typical American soap operas and how people can get carried away with them; Stevens acts out all of the roles in the song, which are described in the album as "Nashville's answer to Abe Burrows, Victor Borge and Steve Allen, all rolled into one." "Funny Man," the first serious song on this album, is described as "Pagliacci and Laugh, Clown, Laugh done in Ray's inimitable style...laughing on the outside and crying on the inside..." and tells the tale of a man who has a reputation for providing laughable entertainment but is heartbroken over being rejected by the woman he loves. "Just One of Life's Little Tragedies" and "Loved and Lost" contains themes of lost love. "Little Stone Statue" tells the tale of a man who knows that his girlfriend now has feelings for another man and he'll lose her soon but will never reveal any emotions. "Teen Years" gives descriptions of meaningful events that make teenagers' lives so special. "It's Been So Long" tells the tale of a man who regretted breaking up with his girlfriend and living without her causes time to go very slowly. Three singles were lifted from the album: "Funny Man," "Harry the Hairy Ape" and "Speed Ball." Of the three, "Funny Man" and "Harry the Hairy Ape" proved the most successful chartwise, the former in Canada and the latter in America. On an interesting side note, Stevens left Mercury in 1965 and signed with Monument Records, where he re-recorded "Funny Man," "Harry the Hairy Ape" and his previous hit "Ahab the Arab." His re-recording of "Funny Man" was included on his third album, Even Stevens, while the re-recordings of the last two songs were included on his fourth album, Gitarzan.

title: Gates-Helm Farm

abstract: The Gates-Helm Farm is a historic early homestead property in rural Searcy County, Arkansas. It is located on both sides of County Road 13, north of Snowball. The property includes a single-pen log house, and a single-pen log barn, both built c. 1870, and a wood frame double-pen house built around 1900. The log structures, located down a lane on the west side of the road, were built by Peter Gates not long after purchasing the land. The house, on the east side of the road, was built by William Helm, who had married one of Gates' daughters. The property exemplifies the evolution of vernacular architecture of the period. The property was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1993.

# Jainism in Kerala

Jainism, one of the three most ancient Indian religious traditions still in existence, has very small presence (0.01%) in Kerala, in south India. According to the 2011 India Census, Kerala only has around 4500 Jains, most of them in the city of Cochin, Calicut and in Wayanad district.

Medieval Jain inscriptions are mostly found on the borders of Kerala proper, such as in Wayanad in the north-east, Alathur in the Palghat Gap and Chitharal in Kanyakumari District. Epigraphical evidence suggests that the shrine at "Tirukkunavay", perhaps located near Cochin, was the major Jain temple in medieval Kerala (from c. 9th century CE). The so-called "Rules of the Tirukkunavay Temple" provided model and precedent for all other Jain temples of Kerala.

Some of the Jain temples in Kerala were incorporated by the Hindus at a later stage. The temple images are worshiped as Hindu gods and considered as part of the Hindu pantheon. It is not uncommon for Hindus and Jains to worship their deities in the same temple.

## History

### Jainism in Iron-age/early historic Kerala

It is possibility that Jainism arrived in modern-day Kerala in the third century BCE soon after Maurya emperor Chandragupta Maurya (died *c.* 297 BCE), accompanied by Jain sage Bhadrabahu I, made the pilgrimage to Sravana Belgola (in present-day Karnataka). Their followers might have journeyed further south, into present day Tamil Nadu and Kerala.

A number of caves, donated by the early historic Chera chieftains to the Jains, can be found in the Karur-Pugaliyur region of western Tamil Nadu. Utiyan Cheral Atal, a Chera chieftain, is stated to have (*Akam* 55, *Puram* 65 and 66) died by starvation through a practice (the vattakku-irikkal) similar to the Jain *sallekhana vrata*. Utiyan Cheral was wounded on the back by his Chola rival Karikala in a battle.

### Late medieval to early modern Kerala

Ilamko Atikal, who is traditionally credited as the author of the Tamil epic *Chilappatikaram*, was probably a resident of a Jain vihara known as "Kunavayir kottam". Some scholars identify Kunavayir kottam with Tirukkunavay\[il\] or Trikkana Matilakam, now known as Matilakam, a village near Cochin. Matilakam was also known as "Gunaka" and "Kunaka" in the medieval period (*Kokasandesa*, slokas 45-48). Archaeological excavations conducted at Matilakam in 1970, revealed an 8th-9th century CE foundation, structurally different from the standard Hindu temple foundations in shape.

Whether it was the same as the kottam at Kunavay or not, epigraphical evidence suggests that the shrine at Tirukkunavay was the major Jain temple in Kerala. It is assumed that the so-called "Rules of the Tirukkunavay Temple" provided model and precedent for all other Jain temples of medieval Kerala. A dating system known as the Tirukkunavay Era was also present during this period.

Inscriptions mentioning the Tirukkunavay

* Tiruvannur/Tirumannur Inscription: royal order of the Chola emperor Rajaraja I (c. 1044 CE), from Tiruvannur Temple, near Calicut (the temple is a now Siva temple)
* Alathur (Godapuram) Inscription (c. 11th century) - Images of Mahavira with the Gandharvas, and Parsvanatha have been recovered from Alattur.
* Talakkavu Inscription: from Talakkavu in Putadi, Wynad (dated in the 137th year of the Tirukkunavay Era ~ dated to c. 850 CE). The location of the Jain temple is now lost to the scholars.
* Kinalur Inscription (1083 CE) - connects Kota Ravi "Vijayaraga" (c. 883 - 913 CE), the Chera king at Kodungallur, with "Kunvay-Nallur". The location of the Jain temple is now lost to the scholars.

Based on the Talakkavu Temple Inscription, it is calculated that the Tirukkunavay Temple was founded some time at the close of the 7th or the beginning of the 8th century CE. It seems that by 15th century, the Tirukkunavay Temple was transformed to a Siva temple (*Kokasandesa*, slokas 47-48). The deity of Kunaka is called "Purari" in the poem *Kokasandesa*. The location of the temple is now lost to the scholars (the temple was probably destroyed completely in late medieval period).

The Chathurmukha Basati, Manjeshwar near Bengere traces its history to patronage to Jainism given by a jain dynasty present in the region in 12th century. This temple got modified to present stature in late 18th century.

Other Hindu temples in Kerala with Jain characteristics are

* Kallil, Perumbavoor \- Images of Mahavira, and Padmavati (worshiped as the Bhagavati) and Parsvanatha can be found in the temple.
* Paruvasseri, Peechi (Palliyara Kavu Bhagavati Temple)
* Kaviyoor Guha Kshetram, Pathanamthitta district, Bhagavati Temple, Tiruccanattu Malai, Chitharal, Kulithura - Images of Mahavira, Devi (destroyed) and Parsvanatha can be found in the temple.

### Jainism in modern Kerala

Some Jain shrines from early historic and medieval times still remain, notably in Jainamedu, near Vadakkanthara, Palghat, and in Sultan Battery in Wayanad. Koodalmanikyam Temple in Irinjalakuda is believed to have been a Jain temple. The assumption is that it was dedicated to Bharateswara, a digambara Jain monk. Some Jain temples located in modern-day Kerala are: Anantnath Swami Temple (Puliyarmala Jain Temple) in Puliyarmala, outside Kalpetta; Jain Temple, Kidanganad, Wayanad; Jainimedu Jain Temple; Kattil Madam Temple; Jain temple, Alappuzha; Kallil Temple in Perumbavoor; Kochi Jain temple, Mattancherry; Shri Vasupujya Swami Jain Temple, Srinivasa Mallan Road, Kochi; Cochin Digambar Jain Mandir, Panampilly Nagar, Kochi; Chathurmukha Basati, Manjeshwar; and Parswanatha Basati, Manjeshwar.

# Heartland (Australian TV series)

***Heartland***, known as *Burned Bridge* in some countries, is an Australian television drama series that ran on ABC Television in 1994. It ran for 13 episodes and starred Cate Blanchett and Ernie Dingo, as well as a large number of Aboriginal Australian actors.

## Plot

*Heartland* deals with the mystery surrounding the death of an Aboriginal girl and the doubts concerning the guilt of her boyfriend, who is arrested for her murder. It is also a love story between two of the people convinced of his innocence — their growing relationship must survive hostility from both the white and black communities and the obstacles of their different backgrounds, attitudes and cultures.

Set in a small coastal town against the turmoils of murder, mystery and romance, *Heartland* follows the people from this seaside community and their battle to restructure their own way of life. Their struggle to restore their self-esteem towards a positive future, despite the obstacles in their path.

Other plot elements revolve around the character of Elizabeth Ashton, a writer arriving in a small coastal community. A degree of suspicion exists towards the newcomer who is ignorant of any underlying racial tensions. This naivety allows her to more easily befriend local Aboriginal man Vincent Burunga. Into this mix is the local police officer Phil McCarthy who seeks Ashton's affections whilst being hostile to her friendship with Burunga, not just as a rival suitor, but because of racial prejudice.

## Cast

## Production

The series was groundbreaking in that it was the first major TV series to be written by Aboriginal Australians, as well as starring many Aboriginal people. It was also one of Cate Blanchett's first appearances on screen, along with a number of other talented Aboriginal actors who went on to have successful careers. Rachael Maza and Lillian Crombie, who had attended acting school together, had their first screen roles in the series.

## Accolades

In 1994, *Heartland* won the Human Rights and Equal Opportunity Commission TV Drama Award, which was presented to executive producers Penny Chapman and Bruce West

Episode 7 won both Best Achievement in Direction in Television Drama, for Julian Pringle, and the Best Episode in Television Drama at the AFI Awards in 1994.

The series was nominated for Most Popular Drama at the 1995 Logie Awards.

At the ARIA Music Awards of 1995, the show's soundtrack was nominated for Best Original Soundtrack, Cast or Show Album.

# Richard Hillary

Flight Lieutenant **Richard Hope Hillary** (20 April 1919 – 8 January 1943) was an Anglo-Australian Royal Air Force fighter pilot during the Second World War. He wrote the book *The Last Enemy* about his experiences during the Battle of Britain.

## Early life

Hillary was the son of an Australian government official and his wife (Michael and Edwyna Hillary) and was sent to England to be educated at Shrewsbury School and Trinity College, Oxford. He lived with his parents until the age of seven; from then until he was eighteen he saw them only during the summer holidays. Whilst at Oxford it has been claimed that he was secretary of the Oxford University Boat Club and president of the Rugby Club, but both claims are questionable. He rowed in the successful Trinity College VIII of 1938. He joined the Oxford University Air Squadron and the Royal Air Force Volunteer Reserve in 1939. Hillary was a descendant of Sir William Hillary, founder of the Royal National Lifeboat Institution.

## Second World War

Hillary was called up to the Royal Air Force in October 1939 and in July 1940, having completed his training, he was posted to B Flight, No. 603 Squadron RAF, located at RAF Montrose, flying Spitfires. The Squadron moved south to RAF Hornchurch on 27 August 1940 and immediately saw combat. In one week of combat Hillary personally claimed five Bf 109s shot down, claimed two more probably destroyed and one damaged.

Hillary wrote about his first experience in a Supermarine Spitfire in *The Last Enemy*:

> The Spitfires stood in two lines outside 'A' Flight pilots' room. The dull grey-brown of the camouflage could not conceal the clear-cut beauty, the wicked simplicity of their lines. I hooked up my parachute and climbed awkwardly into the low cockpit. I noticed how small was my field of vision. Kilmartin swung himself on to a wing and started to run through the instruments. I was conscious of his voice, but heard nothing of what he said. I was to fly a Spitfire. It was what I had most wanted through all the long dreary months of training. If I could fly a Spitfire, it would be worth it. Well, I was about to achieve my ambition and felt nothing. I was numb, neither exhilarated nor scared. I noticed the white enamel undercarriage handle. "Like a lavatory plug," I thought. Kilmartin had said, "See if you can make her talk." That meant the whole bag of tricks, and I wanted ample room for mistakes and possible blacking-out. With one or two very sharp movements on the stick I blacked myself out for a few seconds, but the machine was sweeter to handle than any other that I had flown. I put it through every manoeuvre that I knew of and it responded beautifully. I ended with two flick rolls and turned back for home. I was filled with a sudden exhilarating confidence. I could fly a Spitfire; in any position I was its master. It remained to be seen whether I could fight in one.

On 3 September 1940 he had just made his fifth "kill" when he was shot down by a Messerschmitt Bf 109 flown by *Hauptmann* Helmuth Bode of II./JG 26:

> I was peering anxiously ahead, for the controller had given us warning of at least fifty enemy fighters approaching very high. When we did first sight them, nobody shouted, as I think we all saw them at the same moment. They must have been 500 to 1,000 feet above us and coming straight on like a swarm of locusts. I remember cursing and going automatically into line astern; the next moment we were in among them and it was each man for himself. As soon as they saw us they spread out and dived, and the next ten minutes was a blur of twisting machines and tracer bullets. One Messerschmitt went down in a sheet of flame on my right, and a Spitfire hurtled past in a half-roll; I was weaving and turning in a desperate attempt to gain height, with the machine practically hanging on the airscrew. Then, just below me and to my left, I saw what I had been praying for – a Messerschmitt climbing and away from the sun. I closed in to 200 yards, and from slightly to one side gave him a two-second burst: fabric ripped off the wing and black smoke poured from the engine, but he did not go down. Like a fool, I did not break away, but put in another three-second burst. Red flames shot upwards and he spiralled out of sight. At that moment, I felt a terrific explosion which knocked the control stick from my hand, and the whole machine quivered like a stricken animal. In a second, the cockpit was a mass of flames: instinctively, I reached up to open the hood. It would not move. I tore off my straps and managed to force it back; but this took time, and when I dropped back into the seat and reached for the stick in an effort to turn the plane on its back, the heat was so intense that I could feel myself going. I remember a second of sharp agony, remember thinking "So this is it!" and putting both hands to my eyes. Then I passed out.

Unable to bail out of the flaming aircraft immediately, Hillary sustained extensive burns to his face and hands. Before it crashed he fell out of the stricken Spitfire unconscious. Regaining his senses whilst falling through space, he deployed a parachute and landed in the North Sea, where he was subsequently rescued by lifeboat *Lord Southborough* (ON 688) from the Margate Station.

Hillary was taken for medical treatment to the Royal Masonic Hospital, Hammersmith, London; and afterwards, under the direction of the surgeon Archibald McIndoe, to the Queen Victoria Hospital, East Grinstead, in Sussex. He endured three months of repeated surgery in an attempt to repair the damage to his hands and face, and went on to become one of the best known members of McIndoe's "Guinea Pig Club". He wrote an account of his experiences, published in 1942 under the title *Falling Through Space* in the United States, and as *The Last Enemy* in Great Britain.

> Gradually I realized what had happened. My face and hands had been scrubbed and then sprayed with tannic acid. \[...\] My arms were propped up in front of me, the fingers extended like witches' claws, and my body was hung loosely on straps just clear of the bed.
>
> Shortly after my arrival at the Masonic the Air Force plastic surgeon, A. H. McIndoe, had come up to see me. \[...\] Of medium height, he was thick-set and the line of his jaw was square. Behind his horn-rimmed spectacles a pair of tired friendly eyes regarded me speculatively.
>
> "Well," he said, "you certainly made a thorough job of it, didn't you?" He started to undo the dressings on my hands and I noticed his fingers – blunt, capable, incisive. By now all the tannic had been removed from my face and hands. He took a scalpel and tapped lightly on something white showing through the red granulating knuckle of my right forefinger. "Bone," he remarked laconically. He looked at the badly contracted eyelids and the rapidly forming keloids, and pursed his lips. "Four new eyelids, I'm afraid, but you're not ready for them yet. I want all this skin to soften up a lot first."
>
> This time when the dressings were taken down I looked exactly like an orang-outang. McIndoe had pinched out two semicircular ledges of skin under my eyes to allow for contraction of the new lids. What was not absorbed was to be sliced off when I came in for my next operation, a new upper lip.

In 1941, Hillary persuaded the British authorities to send him to America to rally support for Britain's war effort. While in the United States, he spoke on the radio, had a love affair with the actress Merle Oberon, and drafted much of *The Last Enemy*.

Hillary managed to bluff his way back into a flying position even though, as was noted in the officers' mess, he could barely handle a knife and fork. He returned to service with No 54 Operational Training Unit at RAF Charterhall after recovering from his injuries, for a conversion course to pilot night fighter aircraft.

## Death

Hillary was killed in his 24th year on 8 January 1943, along with Navigator/Radio Operator Sgt. Wilfred Fison, when he crashed a Bristol Blenheim night fighter during a night training flight in adverse weather conditions, the aircraft coming down on farmland in Berwickshire, Scotland.

A funeral took place at St Martin-in-the-Fields, London, on 25 January 1943 at 12:30pm, followed by the cremation of his body at Golders Green Crematorium, where he is commemorated on the Commonwealth War Graves Commission memorial. His ashes were scattered from a Douglas Boston over the English Channel by his former 603 Squadron commanding officer, Wing Commander George Denholm.

## Commemoration

In 2001 a memorial to Hillary was unveiled at the site of the former RAF Charterhall near Greenlaw, Berwickshire.

His love affair with Mary Booker, which lasted from December 1941 until his death, was the subject of Michael Burn's book *Mary and Richard* (1988).

He is today remembered in his alma mater of Trinity College, Oxford, by an annual literature prize, a portrait outside the college library (which hangs below the blade awarded for the 1938 headship), and an annual lecture in his honour (initiated in 1992). Lecturers have included Sebastian Faulks, Beryl Bainbridge (2000), Ian McEwan (2001), Julian Barnes (2002), Graham Swift (2003), Jeanette Winterson (2004), Mark Haddon (2005), Monica Ali (2006), Philip Pullman (2007), Howard Jacobson (2008), Colm Tóibín (2009), Carol Ann Duffy (2010), Tom Stoppard (2011), Andrew Motion (2012), Anne Enright (2013), Will Self (2014), Simon Armitage (2015) and David Hare (2016).

# High Road to China (novel)

***High Road to China*** is a 1977 novel by Australian author Jon Cleary.

## Plot

Set in the 1920s, the plot concerns heiress Eve Tozer who hires two pilots to help her fly from England to China in an effort to rescue her kidnapped father, Bradley.

## Adaptation

Film rights were bought almost immediately and plans were announced to star Roger Moore and Jacqueline Bisset under the direction of John Huston. Cleary turned down the chance to do the adaption as he did not want to work with John Huston in Ireland for several months. Huston dropped out and was replaced by Sidney Furie then eventually Brian G. Hutton. The novel was eventually filmed in 1983, with a large number of changes made, notably the removal of the German character. Cleary regarded the adaptation as one of the greatest disappointments in his career because he thought the book could have made "one of the great adventure films".

title: Volume contraction

abstract: Volume contraction is a decrease in the volume of body fluid, including the dissolved substances that maintain osmotic balance (osmolytes). The loss of the water component of body fluid is specifically termed dehydration.

text:
# Volume contraction

**Volume contraction** is a decrease in the volume of body fluid, including the dissolved substances that maintain osmotic balance (osmolytes). The loss of the water component of body fluid is specifically termed dehydration.

## By body fluid compartment

Volume contraction is more or less a loss of extracellular fluid (ECF) and/or intracellular fluid (ICF).

### ECF volume contraction

Volume contraction of extracellular fluid is directly coupled to and almost proportional to volume contraction of blood plasma, which is termed hypovolemia. Thus, it primarily affects the circulatory system, potentially causing hypovolemic shock.

ECF volume contraction or hypovolemia is usually the type of volume contraction of primary concern in emergency, since ECF is approximately half the volume of ICF and is the first to be affected in e.g. bleeding. Volume contraction is sometimes even used synonymously with hypovolemia.

### ICF volume contraction

Volume contraction of intracellular fluid may occur after substantial fluid loss, since it is much larger than ECF volume, or loss of potassium (K+) *see section below*.

ICF volume contraction may cause disturbances in various organs throughout the body.

### Dependence on lost solutes

Na+ loss approximately correlates with fluid loss from ECF, since Na+ has a much higher concentration in ECF than ICF. In contrast, K+ has a much higher concentration in ICF than ECF, and therefore its loss rather correlates with fluid loss from ICF, since K+ loss from ECF causes the K+ in ICF to diffuse out of the cells, dragging water with it by osmosis.

### Estimation

When the body loses fluids, the amount lost from ICF and ECF, respectively, can be estimated by measuring volume and amount of substance of sodium (Na+) and potassium (K+) in the lost fluid, as well as estimating the body composition of the person.

**1.** To calculate an estimation, the total amount of substance in the body before the loss is first estimated:

$n\_{b}=Osm\_{b}\times TBW\_{b}$

where:

* nb = Total amount of substance before fluid loss
* Osmb = Body osmolarity before loss (almost equal to plasma osmolality of 275-299 milli-osmoles per kilogram)
* TBWb = Total body water before loss (approximately 60% of body weight, or using tritiated water or deuterium)

**2.** The total amount of substance in the body after the loss is then estimated:

$n\_{a}=n\_{b}-n\_{lostNa^{+}-n\_{lostK^{+}}}$

where:

* na = Total amount of substance after fluid loss
* nb = Total amount of substance before fluid loss
* nlost Na+ = Amount of substance of lost sodium
* nlost K+ = Amount of substance of lost potassium

**3.** The new osmolarity becomes:

$Osm\_{a}={\frac {n\_{a}{TBW\_{b}-V\_{lost}}}}$

where:

* Osma = Body osmolarity after loss
* na = Total amount of substance after fluid loss
* TBWb = Total body water before loss
* Vlost = Volume of lost fluid

**4.** This osmolarity is evenly distributed in the body, and is used to estimate the new volumes of ICF and ECF, respectively:

$V\_{ICFa}={\frac {n\_{ICFa}{Osm\_{a}={\frac {V\_{ICFb}\times Osm\_{b}-n\_{lostK^{+}{Osm\_{a}}}}}}}}$

where:

* VICF a = Intracellular fluid volume after fluid loss
* nICF a = Amount of substance in ICF after fluid loss
* Osma = Body osmolarity after loss
* VICF b = Intracellular fluid volume before fluid loss (approximately 40% of body weight, or subtracting ECF from TBW)
* Osmb = Body osmolarity before loss (almost equal to plasma osmolality of 275-299 milli-osmoles per kilogram)
* nlost K+ = Amount of substance of lost potassium

In homologous manner:

$V\_{ECFa}={\frac {n\_{ECFa}{Osm\_{a}={\frac {V\_{ECFb}\times Osm\_{b}-n\_{lostNa^{+}{Osm\_{a}}}}}}}}$

where:

* VECF a = Extracellular fluid volume after fluid loss
* nECF a = Amount of substance in ECF after fluid loss
* VECF b = Extracellular fluid volume before fluid loss (approximately 20% of body weight, or by using inulin)
* Osmb = Body osmolarity before loss (almost equal to plasma osmolality of 275-299 milli-osmoles per kilogram)
* nlost K+ = Amount of substance of lost potassium

**5.** The volume of lost fluid from each compartment:

$V\_{lostICF}=V\_{ICFb}-V\_{ICFa}$

$V\_{lostECF}=V\_{ECFb}-V\_{ECFa}$

where:

* VI/ECF b = Intra/Extra-cellular fluid volume before fluid loss
* VI/ECF a = Intra/Extra-cellular fluid volume after fluid loss

# Hiromi Iwasaki

**Hiromi Iwasaki** (岩崎 宏美, *Iwasaki Hiromi*, born November 12, 1958) is a Japanese female singer who debuted in 1975. Her younger sister Yoshimi Iwasaki is also a singer. In 1981 she was awarded the Silver Prize at the Tokyo Music Festival for her song "Koimachigusa".

Her representative songs are "ロマンス" — "Romance" (1975), "思秋期" — "Shishūki" (1977) and "聖母たちのララバイ" — "Madonna Tachi No Lullaby" (1982). However, her most immediately recognizable hit song, "シンデレラ・ハネムーン" — "Cinderella Honeymoon" (1978) has been such a consistent feature of monomane talent Korokke's routines, Hiromi Iwasaki has commented that when the intro played in concerts, fans would laugh, so she has ceremonially "gifted" that song to Korokke, whose performance has elongated both their careers.

## Biography

Iwasaki made her official debut in April 1975 with the single "二重唱" — "Dyuetto", after winning a record contract on the popular Japanese talent competition show Star Tanjō! in the summer of 1974. The single peaked at no. 19, according to the Oricon charts. Its follow up, "Romance", peaked at no. 1, maintained its place for three weeks, and sold over a million units. It was written by Yu Aku and Kyohei Tsutsumi, and got her nominated for *The Best Newcomer of the Year* at the 17th edition of the Japan Record Awards, and made her first performance on the 26th edition of Kohaku Uta Gassen with this song. The disco inspired "Sentimental" was issued as a single in October of that same year, and with sales exceeding 700,000, became her second no. 1 hit, and maintained its place for two weeks. A string of hit singles was released throughout 1976 and 1977, most notably "Fantasy" (which peaked at no. 2), "Mirai" (no. 2), "Kiri No Meguri Ai" (no. 4), "Dream" (no. 4). and "Nettaigyo" (no. 4). The single "Shishūki" was released in late '77, and won her an award at the 19th edition of the Japan Record Awards, as well as an award at the 8th edition of the Japan Music Awards.

She continued to release big selling singles throughout the 1970s, and starred in her first rock opera, in the summer of 1979, as Ophelia in Shakespeares' Hamlet. In late '79 her single "Mangekyō", won her gold at the Japan Record Awards, as well as becoming the theme song for Subaru Leone.

The single "Sumire Iro No Namida" won her the "Best vocal performance" at the Japan Record Awards of 1981. "Sumire Iro No Namida" had sold 500,000 copies by September 1982.

In 1982 the song "Madonna Tachi No Lullaby" became her third no. 1; selling over a million units, and winning gold at the 21st edition of the Japan Record Awards.

In the 1980s Iwasaki began focusing on musicals, and in 1987 played Fantine in the Japanese version of *Les Misérables*. To this day she continues acting, singing, performing and hosting.
