# Milhiem

The **Milhiems** are an ethnic group living in parts of Northeast India and Myanmar. Some writers refer to them as **Milhem**, **Meriem**, **Mirem**, **Marrem** or **Miriam**. They belong to the "Old Kuki tribes" of Manipur. The Milhiems believe that they descend from a common ancestor who came from a cave which they call Khul. Their history is based on oral tradition, folklore and myth handed down from one generation to the next. Their society is organised into clans and subclans. The village is the highest unit of society and lands belong to the village chief, who is considered the head of their clan or subclan. Some Milhiem clans and subclans are scattered among other Old Kuki tribes such as the Chothe, Purum, Koireng, Kom, Lamkang, Aimol, Maring, Tarao, Vaiphei, Paite, Lusei and also among the Thadou-kuki tribe.

## Origin

Miriems claim to originate from a cave which they refer to as Khur. According to their folklore and myths, their ancestor LUPHO, born of Miriem, went out from Khul with his followers after killing the serpent Gulhiemnu, and Tiger keeper and guardian of the cave opening. Lupho Bepa-customary family friend, Shongthu and the Priest Zahong (Zahang) were all members of the group that came out from Khul. In the days of yore, the Chief used to take up the role of a priest as well. Miriem is the ancestor of the Lupho but Zahong/Zahang is the ancestor of Suantak, Ngoilu, Neitham, Lupheng, Misau, Leivon. In the book "Chongza genealogy" of the Mangtes, their family priest/Thempu Thangjakhup Misao too, claim that the Misao-Lupheng-Leivon belongs to the Zahong Lineage. Some Miriem are amongst Hmars, Lamkangs, Koms and Nagas as well. As is the way of their ancestor Lupho never offer Sating token offer to elder clan to no one. Lupho is named after Ngoilu, his grandfather. Shongthu is the ancestor of the Munhau, Doungel, Samte, Hangsing, Chongloi, Haokip, Kipgen, Guite (Hauzel, Dousel, Gui Mang, Kul Gen, Kullai) and Thadou (Sitlhou, Singsit, Singson) clans. Zahong is the ancestor of Suantak/Thuantak family that comprises Sihsing (Sailo), Thaute, Khiangte and Ralte clans. The three above ancestors represent separate and distinct genealogies.

## Society

The village is the highest unit of Milhiem society. It is ruled by the village chief, who is usually the head of the clan or subclan. Community ownership of land is practiced in some villages. The chief is assisted by selected elders from the village, who are assigned portfolios in the village administration by the chief. Milhiem society is patriarchal; the eldest son inherits the family property and land. Milhiem society is divided into the clans, which are, in order of seniority: Lupho, Lupheng, Lhanghal, Misao, clans are further divided into subclans. Lupheng and Misao are recognised as "notified Scheduled Tribes" (under sub-heading "Any Kuki Tribes") in Mizoram, Assam and Meghalaya.

## Culture

### Folklore

The Milhiems have many myths and folktales, including: Thilha-Gal, Lhangeineng (see below), Lhanghal-Changvai

### Lhangeineng

Long ago there lived a man of the Lupho clan, who married and fathered a lovely daughter called Lhangeineng. She was clever and pretty and possessed a quality quite different from her friends. Lhangeineng, was believed to be the most beautiful and charming girl.

One day, a handsome young man saw how beautiful she was and persuaded her that he was none other than the god of water appearing in the form of a man so that he could woo her.

In his bid to get her, the god of water sent torrential rain over the land, making the Milhiems and their kin run for their lives to Lupho village, sometimes known as Kholmol. The rain continued for many days, the water rising up and up to flood the parts of the mountain where the village was.

As the flood was rising high, the water echoed the name Pho.Pho.Pho... Many families sacrificed their daughters to appease the god, but in vain. Eventually, Lhangeineng understood that the god of water wanted her, and she realised how much he loved her. Seeing the danger her people were in, she resolved to sacrifice herself to the man so that they should not vanish in the flood. Thus Lhangeineng sacrificed her life for her people and normal life was restored to the people in Kholmol Village.

To this day, Milhiems consider a shower of rain as a blessing from Lhangeineng who sacrificed herself for her people.

### Marriage

Marriage outside the clans was strictly prohibited and monogamous marriage was possible within certain clans and subclans. But such taboos are no longer strictly upheld. Elopement is known to occur.

Bride prices are measured in terms of number of Mithum, Gongs shawl and necklaces.

## Religion

### Early practice

Milhiems were animists who believed in nature and the environment. They believed in one supreme god called Pathien. They also worshipped a village and household god called Indoi. All religious ceremonies were held and supervised by the religious head (priest) called Thiempu, who is next to the chief in the village hierarchy. Animal sacrifice was practiced for ceremonies of appeasement and cleansing and for other rituals.

## Economy

The economy of Milhiem villages is based mainly on agriculture. They practice both wetland and Jhum cultivation. Many Milhiems are also employed in government and nongovernmental organisations.

# Fish cracker

**Fish crackers** are deep-fried crackers made from fish and spices, originating from Indonesia. The crackers are made mainly with tapioca flour and/or sago flour and then salt, sugar, and MSG as seasonings. Fish crackers can be found throughout Southeast Asia and East Asia. However, they are more commonly found and of greater variety in Indonesia and Malaysia.

## Types

### Indonesia

Like *krupuk udang* (prawn cracker), *krupuk ikan* (fish cracker) is a popular type of *krupuk* in Indonesia. *Tenggiri* (wahoo) and *cakalang* (skipjack tuna) are probably popular fish used for fish crackers. Nevertheless, other edible fish, such as *bawal* (pomfret) and *ekor kuning* (*Caesionidae*), might also be used.

Many coastal fishing towns and cities in Indonesia have developed their recipes and types. Cirebon in West Java and Palembang in South Sumatra are famous for their unique fish crackers that use *tengiri*. The flat *kemplang* style of fish cracker is associated with the Southern Sumatra region, from Lampung, Palembang, to Bangka island, while the cylindrical *amplang* style is associated with coastal Borneo, from Samarinda, Balikpapan, Banjarmasin, to Pontianak. In Palembang, fish crackers are usually eaten with *pempek* fish cake with *kuah cuko* (a sweet, spicy, and sour vinegar-based sauce).

Coastal fishing towns are traditionally known as the production centers for fish crackers. In Indonesia, fish crackers are produced in Bangka and on Belitung island, Cirebon in West Java, Juwana in Central Java, and Sidoarjo in East Java. Major coastal cities such as Palembang, Bandar Lampung, Medan, Makassar, Pontianak, and Samarinda are also major production centers.

### Malaysia

Fish cracker is a favourite snack in Malaysia and its neighbouring countries. Many fish cracker producers operate in the coastal areas of Malaysia, such as Kelantan, Terengganu, Pahang, Johor, Kedah, Sabah, and Sarawak. The types of fish normally used to process these fish crackers include the wolf herring (*ikan parang*), sardines (*ikan tamban*), round scad (*ikan selayang*), threadfin bream (*ikan kerisi*), *ox-eyed scad* (*ikan lolong bara*), goatfish (*ikan biji nangka*), lizard fish (*ikan conor*), and many others.

Historically, Mukah, a fishing town in Sarawak, is known for producing fish crackers.

# William Hare, 3rd Earl of Listowel

**William Hare, 3rd Earl of Listowel**, KP, JP (29 May 1833  5 June 1924), styled **Viscount Ennismore** from 1837 to 1856, was an Irish peer and Liberal politician.

## Background

Listowel was the eldest son of William Hare, 2nd Earl of Listowel of Convamore House, Ballyhooly, County Cork, and Maria Augusta, widow of George Wyndham of Cromer Hall, Norfolk, and second daughter of Vice-Admiral William Lukin Windham of Felbrigg Hall. He was educated at Eton before gaining a commission as a lieutenant in the Scots Fusiliers Guards in 1852.

Listowel owned 35,000 acres, with 30,000 in County Kerry and 5,000 in County Cork.

## Military career

Listowel served with his regiment during the Crimean War (18541856). On 30 September 1854 at the Battle of Alma he was wounded and was invalided out to England by ship.

## Political career

In the 1855 general election he stood for the Liberal party in County Cork. He succeeded his father in the earldom in 1856 but as this was an Irish peerage it did not entitle him to a seat in the House of Lords. On 8 December 1869 he was created **Baron Hare**, of Convamore in the County of Cork, in the Peerage of the United Kingdom, which gave him the immediate right to sit in the House of Lords. In 1873 he was appointed Knight of the Order of St Patrick.

Lord Listowel later served as a Lord-in-waiting (government whip in the House of Lords) from May to September 1880, this was at the beginning of the second Liberal administration of William Ewart Gladstone, but was informed that the royal household was not an hereditary sinecure. However he was appointed to the largely ceremonial post of Vice-admiral of Munster.

## Family

Lord Listowel married Lady Ernestine Mary, younger daughter of Ernest Brudenell-Bruce, 3rd Marquess of Ailesbury, in 1865. He died in June 1924, aged 91, and was succeeded in his titles by his eldest son Richard. Two of his grandsons, William Hare, 5th Earl of Listowel, and John Hare, 1st Viscount Blakenham, both became government ministers. Lady Listowel died in 1936.

**Paul A. Gagnon** (1925–2005) was an American historian and educator. He taught European history at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst during the 1950s, helped establish the University of Massachusetts, Boston in 1964, and promoted national efforts for social studies and secondary education reforms in the 1980s and 1990s.

## Early life and education

Born in Springfield, Massachusetts, Gagnon attended the High School of Commerce and then enrolled in the United States Navy, where he served during World War II. He earned his B.A. from the University of Massachusetts at Amherst in 1950 and began teaching European history there as he continued with his graduate studies. He married in 1960, which was also the year he earned his doctorate in modern European history from Harvard University.

## Career

Gagnon served as the founding Dean of Arts and Sciences at the University of Massachusetts at Boston from the years 1965 to 1970.

After retiring from the University of Massachusetts, Gagnon began a second phase of his career focused on education and curriculum reform. He worked closely with the American Federation of Teachers, with whom he published *Education for Democracy: A Statement for Principles*, which was signed by over 100 other educators and historians. He was the principal investigator with the Bradley Commission on History in Schools, which was formed by a group of prominent historians, including Diane Ravitch. Funded by the Lynde and Harry Bradley Foundation, the Bradley Commission released a pamphlet in 1988, "Building a History Curriculum", which proposed a series of resolutions and a program for the study of history in K-12 American schools, and a book, *Historical Literacy*, published in 1989 and edited by Gagnon.

Gagnon was the first executive director of the National Council for History Education. He served in the Department of Education from 1991 to 1994 as Director of the Fund for the Improvement and Reform of Schools and Teaching (FIRST).

## Academics

During the course of the 2011-2012 school year, Resurrection's Reach for the Top team won the regional tournament for Waterloo, and therefore ended up attending the Provincial championships, where the team placed 13th in the Province.

Resurrection Catholic Secondary School offers a University Cooperative Education Program (UCEP), where students in either grade 12 or 13 spend their first semester at the University of Waterloo, Wilfrid Laurier University or St. Jerome's University. The student is then able to gain a co-op position with a professor on any of these campuses.

The Waterloo Catholic Secondary School Board offers a program known as High Skills Major. In this program, the student will receive a number of certifications and will be able to attend courses related to a specific career path such as health and wellness. The student will also take certain courses in their upper years (grade 11 and 12) relating to this career path. For example, in health and wellness a student would have to take some science courses. It is also a necessity to take co-op, and to receive a placement in the career of the student's choice. Once all these requirements are met, students who participated in the program will receive a designation on their diploma.

## Student Council

The school has a student council, with two presidents elected by students and a cabinet of ministers with responsibility for different areas of the council.

# Zahirok

**Zahīrōk** (Balochi:زهیروک) is one of the musical forms of Balochistan and the Baloch people, especially in southern Balochistan region of Makran. The genre expresses deep feeling and strong emotions about separation.

In the beginning, Zahirok was only sung by two groups of Baloch women.

Some Balochs often believe that zahırok is the basis of all Balochi music and the essence of the melodies used in singing Balochi narrative song.

Zahırok is one of the most important and well-known Balochi song genres, often described as the “Balochi classical music” by the Baloch themselves.

## Etymology

The term "Zahirok" refers to burning with longing which literally translates into “a melancholic song or a song of separation. it is about loss or absence (especially of distant loved ones) and a general term for several melody types used in narrative song performance.

## Features

A zahirok always begins with **cihal**, which is followed by a small number of lines, some of which are normally repeated.

Every zahiroks has a beginning section called a "picking up" (çistkanag) and a rising section called a "carrying up" (burzā barag). Once. the zahīrok has reached its "peak" (burzī), the pahlawān and/or surozī must "bring it down" (erārag) in a prescribed manner in order to conclude or "kill" (kuşag) the zahīrok.

Zahirok is performed by male singers and played by donali, Suroz and ghaychak.

# Milligram (horse)

**Milligram** (3 April 1984 – 17 July 2017) was a British Thoroughbred racehorse and broodmare, best known for her win over Miesque and Sonic Lady in the 1987 Queen Elizabeth II Stakes. In a racing career which lasted from September 1986 until November 1987 she ran nine times and won four races. Apart from the Queen Elizabeth II Stakes, she won the Coronation Stakes and Waterford Crystal Mile, as well as finishing second in the Prix Marcel Boussac, 1000 Guineas and Irish 1,000 Guineas. She was the highest-rated horse in the United Kingdom over one mile in 1987. Milligram was retired at the end of her three-year-old season and had some success as a broodmare.

## Background

Milligram was a "sparely made, workmanlike" chestnut filly with a white star bred by Egon Weinfeld's Meon Valley Stud. She was from one of the last crops of foals sired by Mill Reef, an American-bred horse who won the Epsom Derby, King George VI and Queen Elizabeth Stakes, and Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe in 1971. Mill Reef's other offspring included Reference Point, Shirley Heights, Lashkari and Doyoun. Milligram was the fourth foal of One In A Million, the winner of the 1979 1000 Guineas, whose other foals included Someone Special, the dam of One So Wonderful. As a descendant of the broodmare Mitrailleuse, Milligram came from the same branch of Thoroughbred family 16-h which produced the St Leger winner Commanche Run and the Irish Oaks winner Swiftfoot.

Like the other horses raced by the Meon Valley Stud, Milligram competed in the black and white colours of Helena Springfield Ltd a company owned by Egon Weinfeld. She was trained by Michael Stoute at his Freemason Lodge stables in Newmarket, Suffolk.

## Racing career

### 1986: two-year-old season

Milligram made her first appearance in a maiden race over seven furlongs at Newbury Racecourse in September 1986 when she started second favourite in a field of twenty-seven runners. She took the lead inside the final furlong and won by three-quarters of a length from her stable companion Mamouna. She was then moved up abruptly in class when she was sent to France to contest the Group One Prix Marcel Boussac over 1600 metres at Longchamp Racecourse on 5 October. Her opponents included the Prix de la Salamandre winner Miesque and the Prix Morny winner Sakura Reiko. Milligram took the lead in the straight and was caught in the final strides and beaten half a length by Miesque.

### 1987: three-year-old season

Milligram made her first appearance as a three-year-old in the 1000 Guineas over the Rowley Mile course at Newmarket Racecourse on 30 April. Ridden by Walter Swinburn, she started at odds of 13/2 and finished second, beaten one and a half lengths by Miesque. Twenty-three days later, she was matched against the previous year's champion two-year-old filly, Forest Flower, in the Irish 1000 Guineas at the Curragh. Milligram started the even-money favourite but appeared unsuited by the slow early pace and after taking the lead inside the final furlong was caught and beaten a short head by Forest Flower.

At Royal Ascot on 17 June, Milligram ran in the Coronation Stakes, then a Group Two race. and started the 4/5 favourite following the late withdrawal of Forest Flower. She took the lead two furlongs from the finish, accelerated clear of her opponents, and won in "effortless" and "sparkling" style by seven lengths from Shaikiya to record her first win at Group level. The filly was then tried against colts and older horses in the Eclipse Stakes at Sandown Park Racecourse. She appeared not to stay the ten-furlong distance and finished fifth behind Mtoto, Reference Point, Triptych, and Bellotto. Milligram was brought back in distance for the Waterford Crystal Mile at Goodwood Racecourse in August, and started at odds of 5/2 against three opponents. Racing on faster ground than she had previously encountered, she took the lead a furlong from the finish and won by three-quarters of a length from Waajib, with the favourite Star Cutter in third and Risk Me fourth.

26 September 1987 saw the inaugural Festival of British Racing at Ascot, which was intended to showcase the best of British horse racing and featured four major weight-for-age events. The principal race was the Queen Elizabeth II Stakes over one mile, which was promoted for the first time to Group One status and attracted five runners including Milligram, Miesque and the leading miler of 1986 Sonic Lady. With Swinburn opting to ride Sonic Lady, the Irish jockey Pat Eddery was employed to ride Milligram. Miesque, who had won three Group One races since the 1000 Guineas started the 1/4 favourite, with Milligram and Sonic Lady being made the joint second favourite on 6/1. Eddery tracked the pacemaker Verdant Boy before sending Milligram into the lead early in the straight. Miesque emerged as her only challenger but Milligram steadily increased her advantage to win by two and a half lengths. On her final appearance of the season, she was sent to the United States to contest the Breeders' Cup Mile at Hollywood Park. Stoute sent the filly to California a month before the race to allow her to acclimatise to the local conditions. Racing on fast ground, she was poorly supported in the betting and failed to reproduce her best form, finishing unplaced behind Miesque.

## Assessment

In 1987, the independent Timeform organisation gave Milligram a rating of 122, five pounds below their top-rated two-year-old filly, Forest Flower. In the official International Classification, she was rated the third best two-year-old filly in Europe behind Forest Flower and Miesque. In the following year's International Classification, she was rated the third best three-year-old filly in Europe behind Miesque and Indian Skimmer and the best horse of any age trained in the United Kingdom over one mile. Timeform gave her a rating of 130, placing her third behind Indian Skimmer (132) and Miesque (131) among the season's three-year-old fillies. When comparing Milligram and Miesque, Timeform stated that "it seems foolish to state dogmatically that one was clearly superior to the other".

In their book, *A Century of Champions*, based on the Timeform rating system, John Randall and Tony Morris rated Milligram the forty-fifth best British or Irish filly of the 20th century.

## Stud record

Milligram was retired from racing to become a broodmare at the Meon Valley Stud. She produced eleven foals between 1989 and 2004:

* Takara Krone, (bay colt, foaled 1989, sired by Alleged)
* Alligram (chestnut filly, foaled 1990, sired by Alysheba), dam of the Sun Chariot Stakes winner Kissogram
* Footlight Fantasy (chestnut filly, foaled 1991, sired by Nureyev) won one race
* Millazure (dark bay or brown filly, foaled 1992, sired by Dayjur)
* Valley Song (filly, foaled 1994, sired by Caerleon)
* Unnamed chestnut colt, foaled 1996 sired by Cadeaux Genereux
* Millennium Dash (chestnut filly, foaled 1997, sired by Nashwan), won one race, dam of Dash to the Top, who was runner-up in the Yorkshire Oaks, and produced Anapurna. She also produced Dash to the Front who won the Warwickshire Oaks and was the dam of Speedy Boarding.
* Second Millennium (chestnut filly, foaled 1999, sired by Nashwan)
* Millafonic (bay colt, foaled 2000, sired by Zafonic), won two races
* Millistar (bay filly, foaled 2003, sired by Galileo), won two races
* Millisecond (bay filly, foaled 2004, sired by Royal Applause), won two races

Milligram was retired from breeding duty in 2006 and lived in retirement at the Meon Valley Stud until her death on 17 July 2017.

text:
# Richard and Mary Woodward Gregory House

The **Richard and Mary Woodward Gregory House** is a single-family home located at 913 East Augusta Road in Augusta, Michigan. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2002.

## History

Richard D. Gregory arrived in Augusta in 1864. Shortly thereafter, he married a local schoolteacher, Mary C. Woodward. In 1865, the couple purchased the 120 acres on which this house is located from Seth Pratt. They constructed a house on the land some time around 1870; however, this was likely an earlier house and not the present one. The Gregorys farmed the land, adding more acreage in the 1870s. They also became involved in the local community, with Richard serving as a village trustee and highway commissioner and Mary a board member of the Augusta Ladies Library Association. The present house was likely built in about 1880.

Mary Gregory died in 1891; the couple had no children. Richard remarried the following year, to Mary Gott, whose family owned a neighboring farm. The couple had a daughter, Lillian, in 1894, but by 1900 Richard was living in the Kalamazoo Asylum. He died in 1903. In 1904, Mary remarried, to George Godde, and in 1906 Lillian Gregory had officially inherited the estate. Mary and George Godde continued farming, and had eight children. In 1924, George Godde died in a lightning strike. Mary continued farming; in 1931, Lillian, having married and moved, deeded the farm to Mary. Mary Godde died in 1947, and in 1949 the farm was sold to William Alonzo and Eugenie Ethel Sibole of Benton Harbor, Michigan. Eugenie died in 1954, and the farm was sold again.

## Description

The Gregory House is a two-story, cross gable, nearly symmetrical Eastlake house. It is wood framed, and sits on a cut stone block foundation. The walls are covered with wooden weatherboard, with trim outlining the windows. Five-sided bay windows are centered on the side facades. Other windows in the house are one-over-one double-hung units with double rows of saw-tooth trim just above. Some second floor windows are paired, with gabled caps of classical decoration. Some of the single windows on the porches and on the second floor have flat classical caps. The front facade, facing the road, has a central chimney. A 1+12-story gabled wing projects to the rear.

The house has four matching porches with cutwork trim, which give the house a distinctive appearance. The porches are identical, and are located in the four angles formed by the intersection of the wings. The porches have low-pitched hipped roofs supported by corner brackets on square chamfered-edge columns. Between supports is a turned spindle balustrade. Other decorative elements include pinwheel patterns on the gables and sawtooth trim on gables edges.

# Rex J. Walheim

**Rex Joseph Walheim** (born October 10, 1962) is a retired United States Air Force officer, engineer and NASA astronaut. He flew three Space Shuttle missions, STS-110, STS-122, and STS-135. Walheim logged over 566 hours in space, including 36 hours and 23 minutes of spacewalk (EVA) time. He was assigned as mission specialist and flight engineer on STS-135, the final Space Shuttle mission.

## Biography

Walheim was born in Redwood City, California, but considers San Carlos, California, his hometown.

### Education

Walheim graduated from San Carlos High School in 1980 and received a Bachelor of Science degree in mechanical engineering from the University of California, Berkeley in 1984. He then received a Master of Science degree in industrial engineering from the University of Houston in 1989.

### Military career

Walheim was commissioned as a second lieutenant in the Air Force in May 1984. In April 1985 he was assigned to Cavalier Air Force Station in Cavalier, North Dakota, where he worked as a missile warning operations crew commander. In October 1986, he was reassigned to the Johnson Space Center, in Houston, Texas, where he worked as a mechanical systems flight controller and was the lead operations engineer for the Space Shuttle landing gear, brakes, and emergency runway barrier.

Walheim was transferred to Headquarters Air Force Space Command in Colorado Springs, Colorado, in August 1989, where he was manager of a program upgrading missile warning radars. He was selected for USAF Test Pilot School in 1991, and attended the course at Edwards AFB in California in 1992. Following graduation, he was assigned to the F-16 Combined Test Force at Edwards where he was a project manager, and then commander of the avionics and armament flight. In January 1996, Walheim became an instructor at USAF Test Pilot School, where he served until he began astronaut training.

### NASA career

Walheim served as a flight controller and operations engineer at the Johnson Space Center from October 1986 to January 1989. He was selected by NASA as an astronaut candidate in March 1996 and reported to the Johnson Space Center in August 1996. Having completed two years of training and evaluation, he was qualified for flight assignment as a mission specialist. Initially, Walheim was assigned technical duties in the Astronaut Office Space Station Operations Branch. Walheim flew three flights, STS-110, STS-122 and STS-135, the final flight of the shuttle, logging over 566 hours in space, including over 36 hours and 23 minutes of EVA time. After his first flight, he was assigned to the EVA branch, where he served as the astronaut office representative for the Extra Vehicular Mobility Unit (the EVA spacesuit).

In September 2002, Walheim served as an aquanaut on the joint NASA-NOAA NEEMO 4 expedition (NASA Extreme Environment Mission Operations), an exploration research mission held in Aquarius, the world's only undersea research laboratory, four miles off shore from Key Largo. Walheim and his crewmates spent five days saturation diving from the Aquarius habitat as a space analogue for working and training under extreme environmental conditions. The mission was delayed due to Hurricane Isadore, forcing National Undersea Research Center managers to shorten it to an underwater duration of five days. Then, three days into their underwater mission, the crew members were told that Tropical Storm Lili was headed in their direction and to prepare for an early departure from Aquarius. However, Lili degenerated to the point where it was no longer a threat, so the crew was able to remain the full five days.

During the inauguration of Barack Obama on January 20, 2009, in Washington, D.C., Walheim marched in the parade carrying an American flag and wearing a prototype of NASA's next generation spacesuit.

#### STS-110

Walheim served as mission specialist 1 on STS-110. STS-110 delivered the S0 truss segment to the International Space Station (ISS). Walheim conducted two spacewalks to install the S0 truss and reconfigure Canadarm2 for use on S0, spending 14 hours and 15 minutes outside the ISS. STS-110 lasted 10 days, 19 hours, 43 minutes and 38 seconds.

#### STS-122

Walheim served as mission specialist 2 and was the flight engineer for STS-122. STS-122, which was a 12-day, 18-hour flight, delivered the European-built *Columbus* module to the ISS the European Space Agency (ESA). Walheim conducted three spacewalks, totaling 22 hours and 8 minutes.

#### STS-135

Walheim served as mission specialist 2 on the final flight of the Space Shuttle, STS-135, a thirteen-day mission to the International Space Station. The mission launched on July 8, 2011, and landed on July 21.

Rex Walheim retired from NASA August 2020.

# Rathauspark

**Rathauspark** is a 40,000 square meter park in Vienna, Austria, located across the street from the Vienna City Hall.

## History

The Emperor Franz Joseph I, in 1863, made known his desire to transform the area into a city park for the residents of Vienna. Toward that end, he removed the military parade ground from the site and tasked Dr. Rudolf Siebeck, the city's gardener, with designing the park. To provide contrast to the large, nearby buildings, including the Austrian Parliament Building and Burg Theater, the park had few established structures.

The park opened in 1873 with two nearly symmetrical segments on the north and south sides of the site. Between the two parks is a large square that became a gathering site throughout the years. Traditionally, the area is used for a Christmas market, a winter skating rink, and a summer outdoor movie venue.

The park's flora is among its most desirable characteristics. In addition to large groups of native trees and bushes, the park also has exotic trees, including a Japanese Umbrella Tree and an aged Ginkgo Biloba tree.

The badea is sometimes grown in greenhouses. The fruits of several other species of Passiflora are eaten. *P. laurifolia* is the water lemon and *P. maliformis* the sweet calabash of the West Indies.

The fruit juice of the badea is used as a beverage. In some parts of Sri Lanka the fruit, where it is known as **ටං ටිං** (\[tʌŋ tIŋ\]), රට පුහුල් or ටුං ටුං, is cooked as a vegetable curry, and the seeds are consumed as a snack or used to extract juice.

A tea is made from the leaves which is used for high blood pressure and diabetes. A drink and ice-cream are made from the fruit.

## Ornamental

*Passiflora quadrangularis* is also grown as an ornamental. Requiring a minimum temperature of 8 °C (46 °F), in temperate zones it must be grown under glass. It has gained the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit.

## Biography

Rick Tippe is the son of Canadian Country Music Hall of Fame and British Columbia Country Music Association Hall of Fame inductee Elmer Tippe. He released his first EP, *After All These Years*, on Ric'n'Rol Music in 1992. Two years later, he released his first studio album, 1994's *Should'a Seen Her Comin'*. The album produced six charting singles, including Tippe's first Top 20 song, "Two Broken Hearted Fools." Its follow-up, 1996's *Get Hot or Go Home*, produced another five Top 20 singles, including Tippe's highest-charting single, "The Craziest Thing." Tippe was named Male Vocalist of the Year by the BCCMA in 1996, his first of eight consecutive wins in the category.

Tippe's third studio album, *Shiver 'n' Shake*, was released in 1998. All four of its singles reached the Top 20 on the *RPM* Canadian country singles chart. Also in 1998, Tippe was named Independent Male Vocalist of the Year by the Canadian Country Music Association. Tippe's first greatest hits collection, *The Best of Rick Tippe*, was released in 2000. Proceeds from one of the album's singles, "Keepin' the Faith," have raised more than $25,000 for the Canadian Cancer Society. Tippe swept the 2001 BCCMA Awards, winning Entertainer of the Year, Male Vocalist of the Year, Album of the Year (*The Best of Rick Tippe*), Song of the Year ("Keepin' the Faith"), Single of the Year ("Keepin' the Faith") and the inaugural Video of the Year Award ("Keepin' the Faith").

Following the release of 2002's *Singin' a Different Tune*, Tippe took a break from recording. During his hiatus, he was commissioned by Mattel to write, produce and perform a song for the 35th anniversary of Hot Wheels. He began work on an album with his father, Elmer, in 2006. When Elmer suffered an unexpected stroke in November 2006, the project was put on hold. While his dad recovered, Tippe began work on his sixth studio album. His first album in six years, *The Power of One* was released in the summer of 2008. Its first single, "Long Way to Paradise," was released in September 2007.

On November 9, 2014, Rick Tippe was inducted into the BCCMA Hall of Fame.

### Retirement

On August 12, 2011, Tippe performed his last concert, and one week later he opened a commercial truck repair company, Dynamic PowerTrain, with his two sons, Cameron and Tyler, in Maple Ridge. In an August 30, 2014 interview with the Maple Ridge & Pitt Meadows Times, Tippe says his auto repair business is currently his main focus, leaving him little time for music. "I hardly play the guitar, I hardly sing. I don't have time," he says. Tippe said he might get back into music again one day, but is unsure if it will happen.
