title: USS Peary

abstract: USS Peary (DD-226) was a Clemson-class destroyer of the United States Navy. She was commissioned in 1920 and sunk by Japanese aircraft at Darwin, Northern Territory, Australia, on 19 February 1942.

text:
# USS Peary

**USS *Peary* (DD-226)** was a *Clemson*-class destroyer of the United States Navy. She was commissioned in 1920 and sunk by Japanese aircraft at Darwin, Northern Territory, Australia, on 19 February 1942.

## Construction and commissioning

*Peary* was laid down by William Cramp & Sons of Philadelphia on 9 September 1919. The destroyer was launched on 6 April 1920, sponsored by Mrs. Edward Stafford daughter of Admiral Peary. The vessel was commissioned on 22 October 1920.

## Service history

### Pre-World War II

*Peary* served in the Far East from 1922 onward. With the Yangtze River Patrol from 1923 to 1931, she made annual deployments in Chinese waters protecting American interests from 1931 to the outbreak of World War II.

### World War II

*Peary* was moored at Cavite, Philippines, when news of the Pearl Harbor raid reached her and was caught in the raid on the Cavite Navy Yard, Philippines, two days later. On the early afternoon of 10 December more than 50 two-engined high level bombers appeared over Cavite and, cruising leisurely above the range of anti-aircraft fire, destroyed practically the entire base.

*Peary*, tied up at a small pier, took one bomb forward which damaged the superstructure and stack and killed eight of her crew. She found herself in a precarious position, as fires began to set off torpedo warheads in a torpedo overhaul shop on the wharf next to her. USS *Whippoorwill* towed her out. *Whippoorwill* and USS *Pillsbury* came alongside and their fire hoses extinguished the fire in five minutes. Her commanding officer, Commander H. H. Keith was wounded in this engagement and was relieved by Commander J. M. Bermingham.

On 26 December 1941, *Peary* was underway when the Japanese came over again and dropped several bombs near the ship.

By the morning of 27 December, *Peary* was in Campomanes Bay, Negros Island, where she decided to put in for the day. Her crew camouflaged her with green paint and palm fronds, hoping to elude Japanese patrol bombers. Five passed overhead without spotting the ship that morning and when darkness fell she set out through the Celebes Sea for Makassar Strait.

A Japanese bomber spotted *Peary* the next morning, and shadowed her until early afternoon when three other bombers joined her in a two-hour attack. The planes dropped 500-pound (230 kg) bombs and then launched two torpedoes only 500 yards (460 m) from the ship. *Peary* quickly backed on one engine and both torpedoes narrowly missed the bow. Seconds later, two more missed the stern by ten yards (9.1 m). The bombers then withdrew.

The New Year found *Peary* at Darwin, Australia. During January and a part of February, she operated out of Darwin, principally on anti-submarine patrol. On 15–16 February, *Peary* took part in a mission to transport reinforcements and supplies to Allied forces in Dutch Timor, but this was aborted after coming under intense air attack. On 19 February 1942 Darwin experienced a massive Japanese air attack. *Peary* was attacked by Japanese dive bombers, and was struck by five bombs. The first bomb exploded on the fantail, the second, an incendiary, on the galley deck house; the third did not explode; the fourth hit forward and set off the forward ammunition magazines; the fifth, another incendiary, exploded in the after engine room. A .30 caliber machine gun on the after deck house and a .50 caliber machine gun on the galley deck house fired until the last enemy plane flew away.

Lost with the ship were 88 officers and men, including Bermingham. There were 53 enlisted survivors and one officer, LTJG R.L. Johnson. LT W.J. Catlett, who was ashore during *Peary*'s final battle, was tasked with writing the official US Navy report on the sinking. *Peary* was the first destroyer of the Asiatic Fleet to be sunk in World War II. She was struck from the Navy List on 8 May 1942. In July 2020 an announcement was made by the Northern Territory government that the propellers from the ship had been found some kilometres from the known wreck site, prompting further investigation into *Peary'*s final battle.

## Awards

## Present day

### Memorial

There is a memorial in Darwin in honor of the lives lost. This memorial, in Bicentennial Park, consists of a plaque and one of the 4-inch deck guns recovered from *Peary*. This gun is aimed towards *Peary*'s resting place in the harbor. In the words of Peter Grose, author of *An Awkward Truth: The Bombing of Darwin, February 1942*, "The doomed yet magnificent reply by the destroyer USS *Peary* in Darwin harbour as Japanese dive-bombers swarmed around her deserves a place in the legend books of American military history". The memorial was visited by President Obama and Prime Minister Gillard on November 17, 2011 as part of a ceremony dedicated to the veterans of WWII, at the end of the 60th anniversary of ANZUS Presidential visit to Australia.

### Wreck

*Peary* lies in 89 feet (27 m) of water in Darwin Harbour, at coordinates 12°28′30″S 130°49′45″E / 12.47500°S 130.82917°E / -12.47500; 130.82917. The wreck itself is a memorial to those who lost their lives in the first bombing raid on Australian soil and to those who defended Darwin.

title: WWA World Minis Championship

abstract: The WWA World Minis Championship is a professional wrestling championship promoted by the Mexican Lucha libre wrestling-based promotion the World Wrestling Association (WWA). The championship is exclusively competed for in the Mini-Estrellas, or Minis, division. A "Mini" is not necessarily a person with dwarfism, as in North American Midget wrestling; it can also be very short wrestlers who work in the Mini-Estrellas division. The championship was created at some point before May 5, 2000 where Piratita Morgan successfully defended it against Octagoncito, but the actual creation date, or how Piratita Morgan became champion has not been documented. As it was a professional wrestling championship, the championship was not won not by actual competition, but by a scripted ending to a match determined by the bookers and match makers. On occasion the promotion declares a championship vacant, which means there is no champion at that point in time. This can either be due to a storyline, or real life issues such as a champion suffering an injury being unable to defend the championship, or leaving the company.

# Thomas Hörl (artist)

**Thomas Hörl** (born October 17, 1975 in Hallein, Austria) is a visual artist.

## Early life

Hörl spent his childhood and youth in Golling an der Salzach and Salzburg. Hörl's center of life is currently in Vienna, where he rents a studio in the sculpture buildings of the federal government in the former 1873 world expo pavilions. He studied art at Academy of Fine Arts Vienna, at Iceland University of the arts Reykjavík and Tokyo Zokei University. Before his studies he was trained as a chef and visited a school for sculpture.

## Work

He works solo as well as in various collaborations (Gin Müller, Sir Meisi, Michikazu Matsune, Jakob Lena Knebl, Sodom Vienna) and from 2003-2020 in the artist group kozek hörlonski together with Peter Kozek. In the year 2020, however, the two have appeared in their collaborations under their civil names and have dispensed with a group name. Together with Peter Kozek, he was awarded the Prize for Visual Arts 2021 by the City of Vienna for their joint work.

Hörl's artistic focus is on researching regional customs and traditions. The artist transfers folkloric contents and forms into new contexts. Using the collage technique as well as reenactment, extensive installations are created. His artistic work includes performance, video works, installation, object, collage, and staged photography, and recently film projects are increasingly appearing in his diverse oeuvre. As part of artist-in-residence programs or self-organized work residencies, he has been active in Berlin, Frankfurt am Main, Tokyo, Paris, London, Vilnius, Tallinn, Tirana, Timișoara, Warsaw and Reykjavík. Thomas exhibited mainly in Austria but also in Germany, Tokyo, London, Tallinn and Los Angeles. In 2017–2019, Hörl collaborated with Peter Kozek and Alexander Martinz on the film trilogy *Demonic Screens* which was screened at Steirischer Herbst 2018, Reaktor Vienna 2019 and Diagonale \- Festival of Austrian Film Graz 2020, among others. The latest film *LICHTHÖHE* from 2021 was made together with Peter Kozek and Victor Jaschke for the art project SERPENTINE - a touch of heaven (and hell) curated and organized by Michael Zinganel along the Grossglockner High Alpine Road and was shown in a "non-stop container cinema" and is distributed by sixpackfilm. Since 2021 he has been working on a silent film project (*F.W.M. Symphony*) about the disappearance of F.W. Murnau's head from its burial place.

# Thomas Woolston

**Thomas Woolston** (baptised November 1668  27 January 1733) was an English theologian. Although he was often classed as a deist, his biographer William H. Trapnell regards him as an Anglican who held unorthodox theological views.

## Biography

Thomas Woolston, born at Northampton in 1668, the son of a currier, the scholar entered Sidney Sussex College, Cambridge, in 1685; attained the Master of Arts in 1692; the Bachelor of Divinity conferred in 1699; took orders and was made a fellow of his college.

After a time, by the study of Origen and the other early Fathers, he became possessed with the notion of the importance of an allegorical or spiritual interpretation of Scripture, and advocated its use in the defence of Christianity both in his sermons and in his first book, while attacking what he saw as the shallow literalist interpretation of contemporary divines, *The Old Apology for the Truth of the Christian Religion against the Jews and Gentiles Revived* (1705). For many years he published nothing, but in 1720-1721 the publication of letters and pamphlets in advocacy of his assessment of the Old Testament, with open challenges to the clergy to refute them, brought him into trouble. It was reported that his mind was disordered, and he lost his fellowship. From 1721 he lived for the most part in London, on an allowance of £30 a year from his brother and other presents.

His influence on the course of the deistical controversy began with his book, *The Moderator between an Infidel and an Apostate* (1725, 3rd ed. 1729). The infidel intended was Anthony Collins, who had maintained in his book alluded to that the New Testament is based on the Old, and that not the literal but only the allegorical sense of the prophecies can be quoted in proof of the Messiahship of Jesus; the apostate was the clergy who had forsaken the allegorical method of the fathers. Woolston denied absolutely the proof from miracles, called in question the fact of the resurrection of Christ and other miracles of the New Testament, and maintained that they must be interpreted allegorically, or as types of spiritual things. Two years later he began a series of Discourses on the same subject, in which he applied the principles of his Moderator to the miracles of the Gospels in detail. The *Discourses*, 30,000 copies of which were said to have been sold, were six in number, the first appearing in 1727, the next five 1728–1729, with two Defences in 1729 1730. For these publications he was tried before Chief Justice Raymond in 1729. Found guilty of blasphemy, Woolston was sentenced (28 November) to pay a fine of £25 for each of the first four *Discourses*, with imprisonment until paid, and also to a year's imprisonment and to give security, for his good behaviour during life. He failed to find this security, and remained in confinement until his death.

## Replies

Upwards of sixty pamphlets appeared in reply to his *Moderator* and *Discourses*. Among them were:

* Zachary Pearce, *The Miracles of Jesus Vindicated* (1729)
* Thomas Sherlock, *The Tryal of the Witnesses of the Resurrection of Jesus* (1729, 13th ed. 1755)
* Nathaniel Lardner, *Vindication of Three of Our Saviour's Miracles* (1729), Lardner being one of those who did not approve of the prosecution of Woolston (see Lardner's *Life* by Andrew Kippis, in Lardner's *Works*, vol. i.)

* *Life of Woolston* prefixed to his *Works* in five volumes (London, 1733);
* *Memoirs of Life and Writings of William Whiston* (London, 1749, pp. 231–235);
* *Appendix to A Vindication of the Miracles of our Saviour. &c.*, by J. Ray (2nd ed., 1731);

# Thuja occidentalis

***Thuja occidentalis***, also known as **northern white-cedar**, **eastern white-cedar**, or **arborvitae**, is an evergreen coniferous tree, in the cypress family Cupressaceae, which is native to eastern Canada and much of the north-central and northeastern United States. It is widely cultivated as an ornamental plant. It is not to be confused with *Juniperus virginiana* (eastern red cedar).

## Common names

Its additional common names include **swamp cedar**, **American arborvitae**, and **eastern arborvitae**. The name arborvitae is particularly used in the horticultural trade in the United States; it is Latin for 'tree of life' – due to the supposed medicinal properties of the sap, bark, and twigs. It is sometimes called white-cedar (hyphenated) or whitecedar (one word) to distinguish it from *Cedrus*, the true cedars.

## Description

Unlike the closely related western red cedar (*Thuja plicata*), northern white cedar is only a small or medium-sized tree, growing to a height of 15 m (49 ft) tall with a 0.9 m (3.0 ft) trunk diameter, exceptionally to 38 metres (125 ft) tall and 1.8 metres (5.9 ft) diameter. The tree is often stunted or prostrate in less favorable locations. The bark is red-brown, furrowed and peels in narrow, longitudinal strips. Northern white cedar has fan-like branches and scaly leaves. The foliage forms in flat sprays with scale-like leaves 3–5 millimetres (18316 in) long.

The seed cones are slender, yellow-green, ripening to brown, 9–14 millimetres (38916 in) long and 4–5 millimetres (532316 in) broad, with six to eight overlapping scales. They contain about eight seeds each. The branches may take root if the tree falls.

## Taxonomy

The species was first described by Carl Linnaeus in 1753. Over 30 synonyms are listed in Kew's Plants of the World Online database.

## Distribution

Northern white cedar is native to an area in the southern part of eastern Canada and the adjacent part of the northern United States. It extends from southeastern Manitoba east throughout the Great Lakes region and into Ontario, Québec, New York, Vermont, New Hampshire, Maine, Prince Edward Island, New Brunswick, and Nova Scotia. Isolated populations occur in west-central Manitoba, and to the south in Massachusetts, Connecticut, Ohio, and Illinois and in the Appalachian Mountains of Kentucky, Tennessee, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Virginia, and West Virginia. In Canada, its range reaches the Arctic treeline and the southern tip of Hudson Bay. It grows mainly in places with cooler summers, with a typical temperature of 16 to 22 °C (61 to 72 °F) in July, and a shorter growing season, from 90 to 180 days.

## Ecology

Northern white cedar grows naturally in wet forests, being particularly abundant in coniferous swamps, where other larger and faster-growing trees cannot compete successfully. It also occurs on other sites with reduced tree competition, such as cliffs. Although not currently listed as endangered, wild white cedar populations are threatened in many areas by high deer numbers; deer find the soft evergreen foliage a very attractive winter food and strip it rapidly. The largest known specimen is 34 m (112 ft) tall and 175 cm (69 in) diameter, on South Manitou Island within Leelanau County, Michigan. Northern white cedars can be very long-lived trees in certain conditions, with notably old specimens growing on cliffs where they are inaccessible to deer and wildfire. As of 2008, the oldest known living specimen was 1,141 years old, but a dead specimen with 1,653 growth rings has been found. Despite their age, these very old trees are small and stunted due to the difficult growing conditions. These individuals' long lifespans have been attributed to their slow growth and their ability to survive when different sections of the tree are damaged or killed. The Witch Tree, a *T. occidentalis* growing out of a cliff face on Lake Superior in Minnesota, was described by the French explorer Sieur de la Verendrye as being a mature tree in 1731; it is still alive today.

Specimens found growing on cliff faces in southern Ontario are the oldest trees in Eastern North America and all of Canada, having achieved ages in excess of 1,653 years.

## Uses

*Thuja occidentalis* is commercially used for rustic fencing and posts, lumber, poles, shingles, and in the construction of log cabins. It is the preferred wood for the structural elements, such as ribs and planking, of birchbark canoes and the planking of wooden canoes.

The essential oil within the plant has been used for cleansers, disinfectants, hair preparations, insecticides, liniment, room sprays, and soft soaps. The Ojibwa reportedly made a soup from the inner bark of the soft twigs. Others have used the twigs to make teas to relieve constipation and headache.

Eastern white cedar – as arborvitae – is a popular ornamental plant used in both residential and commercial landscapes.

*Thuja occidentalis* has important uses in traditional Ojibwe culture. Honoured with the name **Nookomis Giizhik** (Grandmother Cedar), the tree is the subject of sacred legends and is considered a gift to humanity for its myriad of uses, among them crafts, construction, and medicine. It is one of the four plants of the Ojibwe medicine wheel, associated with the north. The foliage is rich in vitamin C and is believed to be the annedda, which cured the scurvy of Jacques Cartier and his party in the winter of 1535–1536. Due to the presence of the neurotoxic compound thujone, internal use can be harmful if used for prolonged periods or while pregnant.

## Cultivation

*T. occidentalis* is widely used as an ornamental tree, particularly for screens and hedges, in gardens, parks, and cemeteries. Over 300 cultivars exist, showing great variation in colour, shape, and size, with some of the more common ones being 'Degroot's Spire', 'Ellwangeriana', 'Hetz Wintergreen', 'Lutea', 'Rheingold', 'Smaragd' (or 'Emerald Green'), 'Techny', and 'Wareana'. It was introduced into Europe as early as 1540. These cultivars have gained the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit:

title: Thuja standishii

abstract:
Thuja standishii is a species of thuja, an evergreen coniferous tree in the cypress family Cupressaceae. It is native to southern Japan, where it occurs on the islands of Honshū and Shikoku. It is a medium-sized tree, reaching 20–35 m tall and with a trunk up to 1 m diameter. The foliage forms in flat sprays with scale-like leaves 2–4 mm long, matte green above, and with narrow white stomatal bands below. The cones are oval, yellow-green ripening red-brown, 6–12 mm long and 4–5 mm broad, with 6–10 overlapping scales. It is an important timber tree in Japan, grown in forestry plantations for its durable, waterproof, attractively scented wood. There is some evidence that extracts of T. standishii have biological activity. It contains a compound called standishinal which has shown relatively potent effects on the enzyme aromatase. It acts as an inhibitor, thus decreasing the synthesis of estradiol in the human body. This compound has been used in research and derivatives of it have shown even stronger inhibition of aromatase.
It is one of the Five Sacred Trees of Kiso.

***Thor*** is an outdoor 1977 copper and redwood sculpture by American artist Melvin Schuler, located on the Transit Mall of downtown Portland, Oregon.

## Description and history

*Thor* is an abstract outdoor sculpture depicting Thor, the hammer-wielding god of thunder in Norse mythology. Located at the intersection of Southwest 6th Avenue and Southwest Taylor Street in the Portland Transit Mall, the copper on redwood sculpture was completed in 1977, funded by TriMet and the United States Department of Transportation. It measures 7 feet (2.1 m) x 4 feet (1.2 m) x 4 feet (1.2 m). According to the Regional Arts & Culture Council, the agency which administers *Thor*, "This piece served as a excellent example of Schuler's work, which is characterized by large cubic and angular sculptures achieved by hammering copper onto carved redwood. This process creates a unique and recognizable finish to his sculptures." The sculpture was previously located at Southwest 5th between Washington and Alder.

In 2005, *Wine Enthusiast* magazine gave Three Olives unflavored vodka a Superb (90-95) / Highly Recommended rating, and its Vanilla and Orange flavors a Superb (90-95) / Highly Recommended rating.

## Advertising

In 2013, Three Olives launched a $20 million international print, billboard and digital advertising campaign starring actor Clive Owen. The ads feature atmospheric stills of Owen in a variety of London locations, reflecting the vodka's British origin. That same year, Three Olives partnered with the estate of Marilyn Monroe to create a Marilyn Monroe Strawberry Vodka, with a strawberries and cream flavor. The bottle's label featured a classic image of Monroe standing over a subway grate as the wind ruffles her white dress. The deal was a three-year license that expired in January 2016, hence the Strawberry vodka had dropped the Monroe name during 2015 production. Proximo previously launched a $10 million animated campaign for the vodka in 2011, and their grape-flavored Purple vodka was endorsed by rapper Lil' Kim in a 2010 national ad campaign.

# ThunderCats (2012 video game)

***ThunderCats*** is an platform game for the Nintendo DS developed by Aspect and published by Bandai Namco Games. It is based on the 2011 animated series of the same name, and was released in North America in October 2012 and Europe in November 2012. It is the first game in the franchise to be released since *ThunderCats: The Lost Eye of Thundera* appeared on various home computers in 1987.

## Gameplay

*ThunderCats* is a 2D platform game where players control Lion-O, leader of the ThunderCats, who uses his Sword of Omens to defeat enemies. Players traverse the game's levels dispatching enemies and battling bosses, and are able to call upon other members of Lion-O's team to briefly assist him once unlocked: Panthro, Cheetara, Tygra, and WilyKit with WilyKat. Lion-O's abilities include a slide, double-jump, and downward stab attack, as well as the ability to fire a beam of light from the Eye of Thundera in his sword's hilt once his power gauge has been filled. Still images from the 2011 *ThunderCats* animated series accompany story interludes between levels.

## Development

The game was developed by Aspect Digital Entertainment and published by Namco Bandai Games, making an appearance at the company's booth during the 2012 Electronic Entertainment Expo in Los Angeles. An original release period of August 2012 was announced in April of that year. In a July Bandai Namco Entertainment press statement, *ThunderCats* was later set for release on September 28, 2012, but was delayed again until the following October in North America and November in Europe. It ultimately debuted four months after the final episode of the animated series aired in June 2012, following Cartoon Network's decision to not renew the show for a second season.

## Reception

The game received "generally unfavorable reviews" according to the review aggregation website Metacritic. Critics routinely panned the title's overly-simplistic gameplay and sub-par graphics, with *Nintendo Power* calling it "an incredibly simple side-scrolling romp through boring levels populated by similar looking enemies". Philip J. Reed of *Nintendo Life* remarked that it was "about as bad as a game can get while still remaining functional", lambasting its repetitive action and slow pacing. In her review for *Destructoid*, James Stephanie Sterling called *ThunderCats* "a truly disgusting DS game", drawing attention to its substandard graphics and gameplay, declaring that it "looks like a slightly below average SEGA Genesis title, and plays like a dumbed-down *Golden Axe*."

# Thomas Moore (botanist)

**Thomas Moore** (21 May 1821 – 1 January 1887) was a British gardener and botanist. An expert on ferns and fern allies from the British Isles, he served as Curator of the Society of Apothecaries Garden from 1848 to 1887. In 1855 he authored *The Ferns of Great Britain and Ireland.* The standard author abbreviation T.Moore is used to indicate this person as the author when citing a botanical name.

## Life

He was born at Stoke, near Guildford, Surrey, on 21 May 1821. He was brought up as a gardener, and was employed at Fraser's Lee Bridge Nursery, and subsequently, under Robert Marnock, in the laying out of the Regent's Park gardens.

In 1848, by the influence of Dr. John Lindley, he was appointed curator of the Apothecaries' Company's Garden at Chelsea, in succession to Robert Fortune, an appointment which gave him leisure for other work. Under Moore's tenure during the period of so-called "pteridomania", the garden increased the number of fern species cultivated there by fifty percent and was renamed the Chelsea Physic Garden in 1875. The Thomas Moore Fernery was built in 1907 on the site of his original garden and now contains a display of the varieties of ferns described and cultivated by Moore and popular during the Victorian era.

He acted as an editor of the *Gardeners' Magazine of Botany* from 1850 to 1851, of the *Garden Companion and Florists' Guide* in 1852, of the *Floral Magazine* in 1860 and 1861, of the *Gardeners' Chronicle* from 1866 to 1882, of the *Florist and Pomologist* from 1868 to 1874, and of the *Orchid Album* from 1881 to 1887.

He made a special study of ferns, most of his independent works being devoted to that group of plants; but he also acquired a knowledge of garden plants and florists' flowers generally, which was probably greater than that of any of his contemporaries. He acted as one of the secretaries of the International Flower-show in 1866, and was for many years secretary to the floral committee and floral director of the Royal Horticultural Society. Moore was elected a fellow of the Linnean Society in 1851, and was also a member of the Pelargonium, Carnation, Auricula, and Dahlia Societies. He was constantly called upon to act as judge at horticultural shows, and only a short time before his death was engaged in classifying the Narcissi for the Daffodil Congress. After three or four years of infirm health, he died at the Chelsea Botanical Garden on 1 January 1887, and was buried in Brompton cemetery.

## Works

Besides papers on ferns in various botanical journals, Moore's chief publications were :

* *Handbook of British Ferns,* 16mo, 1848,
* *Popular History of British Ferns,* 8vo, 1851, 2nd edit. 1855, abridged as *British Ferns and their Allies,* 8vo, 1859, and also issued, with coloured illustrations by William Stephen Coleman in 1861.
* *Ferns of Great Britain and Ireland,* edited by J. Lindley, and nature-printed by II. Bradbury, fol., 1855, and in 2 vols. 8vo, 1859.
* *Index Filicum,* 8vo, twenty parts, ending at the letter G, 1857-63.
* *Illustrations of Orchidaceous Plants,* 8vo, 1857.
* *The Field Botanist's Companion,* 8vo, 1862, of which a new edition appeared in 1867 as *British Wild Flowers.*
* *The Elements of Botany for Families and Schools,* 10th edit. 1865, 11th edit. 1875.
* *The Treasury of Botany,* with John Lindley, 2 vols. 8vo, 1866, 2nd edit. 1874.
* *The Clematis as a Garden Flower,* with George Jackman, 8vo, 1872.
* *Thompson's Gardener's Assistant,* 2nd ed. 8vo, 1876.

Moore also wrote the article 'Horticulture' in the ninth edition of the *Encyclopædia Britannica,* in conjunction with Dr. Maxwell Masters, afterwards published in an expanded form as *The Epitome of Gardening,* 8vo, 1881.

text:
# Thüringer Waldesel

The **Thüringer Waldesel** or **Thuringian Forest Donkey** is a recently created German breed of domestic donkey.

## History

The Thüringer Waldesel derives from a small group of miscellaneous donkeys collected in Saxony, Saxony-Anhalt and West Thuringia, supplemented with similar-looking donkeys brought from the United Kingdom, and bred both at the Thüringer Zoopark Erfurt at Erfurt in Thuringia, and at the Wildpark Hundshaupten in Egloffstein in Bavaria. In 2019 the breeding programme was approved by the Landesbetrieb Landwirtschaft Hessen, and the Thüringer Waldesel was recognised as a breed. Seven jennies and two jacks were registered in the stud-book. As there are very few of the donkeys, the breed is reported to DAD-IS as critically endangered.

## Characteristics

The Thüringer Waldesel is of medium size. Jacks stand 100–110 cm at the withers, and weigh about 133–210 kg; jennies stand some 95–110 cm, and weigh 156–185 kg. The coat is usually stone-grey, with dark shoulder-stripe and eel stripe; the legs often display zebra stripes.

**Ticonderoga Publications** is an Australian independent publishing house founded by Russell B. Farr in 1996, which specializes in science fiction, fantasy, and horror short stories. Farr now runs the publisher alongside Liz Grzyb, an award winning editor.

## History and current

The publisher initially specialized in collections of science fiction short stories. Between 1996 and 1999, it published collections by Steven Utley, Sean Williams, Stephen Dedman, and other writers. According to Ben Peek, "Under Farr, Ticonderoga Publications gathered a reputation for producing sturdy, thick-papered, elegant collections."

Ticonderoga Publications suspended their production of books in 1999 due to the Australian GST (Goods and Services Tax) that raised the price of books by ten percent, with the editor concentrating on his Ticonderoga Online webzine instead.

In 2005, they resumed publication with two new anthologies in late 2006-early 2007. In 2006, it published *Troy*, a collection by Simon Brown. In 2007, it published the Ditmar Award-winning *Fantastic Wonder Stories*, edited by Russell B. Farr.

Ticonderoga Publications has published several anthologies, including *The Workers' Paradise* (2007) edited by Russell B. Farr and Nick Evans, Australia's first SF anthology to explore the future of work; *Scary Kisses* (2010) edited by Liz Grzyb, Australia's first paranormal romance anthology; *Belong* (2010) edited by Russell B. Farr, twenty-three stories of interstellar immigration with writers from Australia, Bulgaria, Canada, USA, UK, and New Zealand; and *Dead Red Heart* (2011) edited by Russell B. Farr, thirty-three Australian vampire stories.

In 2008 it published *Magic Dirt: the best of Sean Williams*, winner of the inaugural Aurealis Award for Best Collection.

Russell Farr's co-partner is editor Liz Grzyb. From 2010 to 2015, they published *The Year's Best Australian Fantasy and Horror* series, edited by Grzyb and Talie Helene.

*The West Australian* newspaper has described Ticonderoga Publications as one of "the most important micro presses in Australia".

title: Thylejren

abstract: Thylejren or Frøstruplejren started as an encampment and festival in the summer of 1970. The community behind the festival, Det Ny Samfund found an area in Han Herred between Frøstrup and Østerild where they could host a festival, inspired by the Isle of Wight festival in England and Woodstock in United States. When some of the participants stayed during the winter, Thylejren developed into a more permanent settlement with DIY-houses — still upholding the hippie-ideal after more than fifty years, with a population of 65 as of 2020. Thylejren has evolved into an alternative society in the midst of the Danish society - a micro-nation with its own territory.

# Tieke Kāinga

**Tieke Kāinga** is a small Māori community in New Zealand, on the middle reaches of the Whanganui River 2.5 kilometres (1.6 mi) downstream from the mouth of the Mangatiti Stream. It is centred on Tieke Marae, and a Department of Conservation tramping hut. The surrounding land is subject to a Māori land claim that began with occupation of an earlier hut in 1993.

## History

Prior to European colonisation, Tieke was a Whanganui River trading centre, a place of learning and a fortified . In 1841 it was described by Wakefield as a large settlement (perhaps 80–90 inhabitants). In the 1840s it shifted across the river and changed its name to Te Ririatepo, but by 1851 it had shifted back and was known as Okirihau, with a population of 93. The area was part of the government's 1886 Waimarino Purchase, which was intended to allow sale of land to settlers, and the chief Te Rangihuatau who lived at Tieke assisted with the purchase. However, there was confusion over whether Tieke itself was included. Te Rangihuatau considered it to be Māori land; the government considered it "Crown Lands which the Natives are allowed to use and occupy without a title". Early in the 20th century the land changed from tribal to government ownership, although no official records of the 1906 Whanganui River Trust transaction exist today. In 1908 Te Rangihuatau died and the settlement was abandoned.

The land surrounding Tieke became scenic reserve, and the Wanganui River Scenic Board built a hut there in the late 1950s or early 1960s. Tieke became part of the Whanganui National Park when it was created in 1986. The Department of Conservation built a large hut there as part of a series of facilities they provided along the river. In the mid-1990s the Department of Conservation began levying a Facilities Use Pass, a toll on river users to maintain its huts and services, which caused controversy amongst some local Māori. In September 1993 a group called Te Whānau o Tieke reclaimed the land, occupying the hut and establishing a marae. In 2001 the group made a memorandum of understanding with the Department of Conservation, who built a bigger hut and permitted the group to erect a *wharenui* (meeting house) and a carved pole. The *wharenui* was completed in 2003.

## Current inhabitants

Today Tieke Kāinga is home to an extended family, Te Whānau o Tieke, also known as Tamahaki after the name of their common ancestor, whose members trace their ancestry to pre-European Tieke. The marae serves as a popular stop-off point for tourists canoeing the Whanganui River (part of the Whanganui Journey). Another camping site, Ramanui, sits nearby on the opposite bank of the river.

Whilst the land is still formally disputed, the Department of Conservation and the Te Whānau o Tieke have developed an amicable and co-operative relationship, working together to upgrade and maintain facilities at Tieke Kāinga.

title: Thryptomene 'F.C. Payne'

abstract: Thryptomene 'F.C. Payne', commonly known as Payne's thryptomene, is an Australian native plant cultivar that is widely grown in Australia. It is a selected form of Thryptomene saxicola, a species from Western Australia.

# Thryptomene 'F.C. Payne'

***Thryptomene* 'F.C. Payne'**, commonly known as **Payne's thryptomene**, is an Australian native plant cultivar that is widely grown in Australia. It is a selected form of *Thryptomene saxicola*, a species from Western Australia.

## Description

*Thryptomene* 'F.C. Payne' is an open, evergreen shrub with a slightly weeping habit, growing to 1 metre high. It produces masses of long-stalked small pale pink flowers starting in winter and continuing through spring that are attractive to various insects including butterflies. The aromatic leaves are small, about 6 or 7 mm long, and narrow towards the stem.

## Origin

In his *Handbook of trees and shrubs for the Southern Hemisphere* published in 1959, Richmond E. Harrison noted that the cultivar *Thryptomene paynei*, then newly introduced to New Zealand was "raised by FC Payne of Adelaide". F.C. Payne was the owner of "The Sanctuary" plant nursery in Athelstone, South Australia on the outskirts of Adelaide who promoted the use of Australian native plants in local gardens.

By 1967 the cultivar had become a "garden favorite" in Australia and was featured in a gardening guide for native plants in *The Australian Women's Weekly*.

The cultivar has variously been referred to as var. *paynei*, 'Paynei', 'Paynes', 'Payne's Hybrid' and 'Payne's Selection'

## Cultivation

Plants may be grown as a low informal hedge or for cut flowers. They are adaptable to most situations, but prefer well drained soil in a sunny or partly shaded position. The cultivar is widely available in most parts of Australia through plant nurseries. It requires propagation through cuttings to be true to the parent plant.
