# Lüneburg–Soltau railway

The **Lüneburg–Soltau railway** is a standard gauge railway line in North Germany operated by the East Hanoverian Railways (*Osthannoversche Eisenbahnen* or *OHE*).

## History

After a lengthy planning phase the 57-kilometre (35 mi) long railway from Lüneburg to Soltau was opened on 13 June 1913 by the *Lüneburg–Soltau Light Railway*. This company had been founded on 15 February 1911 by the Prussian state, the Province of Hanover and the districts of Lüneburg and Soltau.

It ran from Lüneburg through the middle of the Lüneburg Heath via Amelinghausen-Sottorf and Hützel, where it was joined by the line from Winsen, which had been built by the Winsen–Evendorf–Hützel Light Railway. Finally it reached the railway hub of Soltau, where it share the same station as the Celle–Soltau railway and, from 1920, the Soltau–Neuenkirchen railway as well, which enabled passengers to transfer to the state railway. Running powers for the line in the period 1 June 1923 to July 1944 were the responsibility of the State Light Railway Office of the Province of Hanover. On 1 January 1944 the light railway company merged with the Soltau-Neuenkirchen Light Railway Company to form the *Lüneburg-Soltau Railway Company*, but this was absorbed the same year, on 11 July 1944, into the East Hanoverian Railways.

The inclines on the line are the most demanding in the OHE's network as its popular name *Gebirgsbahn* ('hill railway') testifies. It has a height difference of over 100 metres.

In 1973 the Soltau–Hützel section was incorporated into Celle's remotely controlled section. The signal box for this is at Soltau Süd. However, due to the decline in traffic, remote-control is superfluous and, since 2001, is no longer in use on this section. The signals in Hützel and Lüneburg Süd are meanwhile controlled by Celle. The station of Melbeck-Embsen has its own signal box with push-button routing.

## Operations

### Passenger services

Passenger traffic was moderate in the early years. From 1932 to 1936 three Wismar railbuses were procured which handled all the passenger duties. Only schoolchildren and excursion services were operated by normal trains. The service was very modest; in 1938 there were three pairs of through trains daily, and other trains on the sections from Lüneburg to Amelinghausen and Soltau to Hützel. After 1950 five to six train pairs ran daily. Between 1950 and 1960 semi-fast railbuses (*Eiltriebwagen*) were introduced, running from Lüneburg via Soltau to Celle. From 28 May 1961 passenger trains called at the Deutsche Bundesbahn (DB) station in Soltau. This made it easier to catch connexions. In Lüneburg an agreement was reached with the DB to allow for a ten-minute walk to the DB station.

On 27 June 1975 passenger services between Soltau and Schwindebeck were withdrawn; the remaining passenger trains followed suit on 21 May 1977.

The Lüneburg Transport Society (*Arbeitsgemeinschaft Verkehrsfreunde Lüneburg*) offers trips on historic trains at weekends during the summer months and in December between Lüneburg and Hützel under the name "Heath Express" (*Heide Express*).

### Goods traffic

To begin with the transportation of agricultural goods dominated. In Lüneburg the saltworks had a large siding and was an important customer. From the 1960s in Drögennindorf and Hambostel there were mixing plants for road construction materials; they were big customers of the railway for a period of time. The most important goods customer was the compound fertiliser factory at Embsen. They transported a million tonnes of freight and, during their peak years, made up 30 per cent of the entire freight transported by the OHE. In 1989 fertiliser production in Embsen ceased. Until then there had been three local goods trains daily on the line; since 2006 only three per week. Through traffic, too, has reduced. In 1980 there were up to four trains per day, by 2006 on the Soltau–Hützel section only three per week.

# Martin Lemelman

**Martin Lemelman** (born October 26, 1950) is an American freelance illustrator and graphic memoirist.

## Early life and education

Born in Brooklyn, New York, he grew up in an Orthodox Jewish home, and attended a yeshiva. At 13 he decided he wanted to be an artist. His training in art began after entering Brooklyn College, where he received undergraduate and Masters of Fine Arts degrees. Since 1976 he has been a freelance illustrator.

## Career

Lemelman has illustrated over 30 children's books and his work has been published in magazines ranging from The New York Times Book Review to Sesame Street Magazine.

He is the author of two graphic memoirs. The child of Holocaust survivors, in 1989 he began to videotape his mother, Gusta, as she opened up about her 1930s Polish childhood and her eventual escape from Nazi persecution. His original idea was to save his mother's memories for his children. Prodded by a 2000 visit to Hermakivka, Gusta's town in Ukraine, he realized he had to tell her story. He returned to it in 2003, and it evolved into the 2006 graphic memoir, *Mendel's Daughter*, that has been called a unique contributor to Holocaust literature. He used a multimedia approach, using photos and documents, so that the reader would understand that what happened to Gusta happened to real people. Through this approach, Lemelman has Gusta inform the reader about her life and the people in it, as well as her emotional investment in what is pictured. In 2013 Entertainment Weekly listed *Mendel's Daughter* as one of the ten greatest graphic novels ever written. In *Two Cents Plain: My Brooklyn Childhood* he continued the family saga. Raised in the back of a candy store in Brownsville in the 50s and 60s, as the neighborhood changed, he tells the story of his childhood in the form of a graphic memoir. *Two Cents Plain* won the 2010 New York City Book Award for memoir.

Lemelman is emeritus professor of communication design at Kutztown University.

In 1985 he designed five postage stamps for Sierra Leone promoting the 1986 FIFA World Cup.

## Personal

Lemelman lives in South Florida. He is married with four sons.

**Martín Quispe Julián** (born 10 June 1959) is a Bolivian educator, politician, and trade unionist who served as a member of the Chamber of Deputies from La Paz, representing circumscription 21 from 2010 to 2015.

Born in the Calamarca Municipality, Quispe spent his early career as a schoolteacher before pivoting to broadcast radio. Around 1996, he returned to his home Aroma Province, where he held positions of leadership within both his indigenous community in the area's trade unions.

A member of the Movement for Socialism, Quispe served within the party's provincial and departmental affiliates until 2009, when he was elected to the Chamber of Deputies. Quispe's ninety percent victory was the highest margin achieved by any candidate running in single-member constituencies that cycle. He was not nominated for reelection.

## Early life and career

Martín Quispe was born on 10 June 1959 in Calamarca, a rural municipality in the Aroma Province of southern La Paz; the son of Justino Quispe and Emeteria Julián. As a young adult, Quispe initially pursued a career in education, attending the Warisata Normal School, where he graduated as a professor. After a few short stints spent teaching at the Agua Rica and later Bella Vista schools throughout the mid to late 1980s, Quispe retired from that profession. He returned to school and received a degree in communication sciences in 1992, spending the next few years working in AM and FM radio.

In the mid-1990s, Quispe resettled in Calamarca, where he assumed positions of traditional leadership within his home canton of Cosmini, including serving as the area's *mallku* in 1996. That same year, he began participating in the area's trade syndicates, serving as general secretary of his local farmers' union before being elected to lead Calamarca's workers' center the following year.

## Chamber of Deputies

### Election

An early adherent of the Movement for Socialism (MAS-IPSP), Quispe first joined the party's Cosmini affiliate in 1998. The MAS nominated him as its Calamarca mayoral candidate the following year, but he took home just thirty-two votes.\[§\] In subsequent years, Quispe remained off the ballot but continued to progressively rise through the ranks of the MAS's internal structure. In 2002, he was made a member of the party's provincial transparency committee, and in 2007, he became its departmental secretary of international relations, the third highest-ranking position within the MAS's La Paz affiliate.

In 2009, ten years after his 1999 loss, Quispe was nominated for a seat in the Chamber of Deputies. He campaigned in southern La Paz's circumscription 21, encompassing his home Aroma Province, as well the neighboring Loayza and Villarroel provinces. Quispe won by a landslide, attaining ninety percent of the popular vote,\[§\] the highest margin for any candidate running in single-member constituencies that cycle. In a race where the second-place candidate won less than five percent of the vote,\[§\] Quispe's only contender was the plethora of spoilt ballots, which, when included, drop his margin to 68.2 percent. According to sociologist Salvador Romero, the high propensity of abstentions responded to a "certain indifference on the part of the electorate towards candidates who are expected to win, and about whom little is known."

### Tenure

Quispe's parliamentary tenure was split between two committees; he spent the first three years of his term on the lower chamber's Environment Committee, later switching to the Social Welfare Committee in his closing two years.\[§\] In these positions, Quispe's work focused on tackling mental health; he drafted a bill in the Chamber of Deputies on the subject and presented a similar proposal to the Latin American Parliament in his capacity as a delegate to it. Outside of legislation, Quispe's tenure was marked by scandal over allegations that he used his influence to procure the release from prison of Yesid Luín, the mayor of Calamarca. Luín had been arrested in 2011 after being caught smuggling cocaine in his car. His subsequent release and restoration to the position of mayor was controversial, with a lengthy criminal process against himself, Quispe, and others going on into 2015 and beyond.

### Commission assignments

* Social Policy Commission
    + Social Welfare and Protection Committee (2013–2015)
* Amazon Region, Land, Territory, Water, Natural Resources, and Environment Commission
    + Environment, Climate Change, Protected Areas, and Forest Resources Committee (2010–2013)

***Marune: Alastor 933*** (1975) is a science fiction novel by Jack Vance, the second of three books set in the Alastor Cluster, ‘a whorl of thirty thousand stars in an irregular volume twenty to thirty light-years in diameter’. Three thousand of the star systems are inhabited by five trillion humans, ruled by the mostly hands-off, laissez-faire Connatic, who occasionally, in the manner of Harun al-Rashid of *The Thousand and One Nights*, goes among his people in disguise. The novel was preceded by *Trullion: Alastor 2262* (1973) and followed by *Wyst: Alastor 1716* (1978).

*Marune: Alastor 933* first appeared in serialized format in the July and September 1975 issues of *Amazing Science Fiction* magazine. It was issued in paperback book format in September 1975 by Ballantine Books.

## Plot

A young man (provisionally called *Pardero*) has lost his memory—remembering almost nothing of his past. Acting on good advice, he earns enough money by menial labor to travel to the Connatic's free hospital on the capital planet Numenes. There, after much research, medical technicians are able to deduce from his reactions to various stimuli that he is a Rhune from the sparsely populated planet Marune—a planet illuminated by four stars (Suns). The Rhunes are a somewhat peculiar people who, among other traits, have a strong aversion to killing (unless it be in combat). From this and other clues, the man becomes convinced some enemy has caused his amnesia. He journeys home to find he is the ruler (*Kaiark*) of a small kingdom. He has to tread carefully, unsure of whom he can trust, in his quest to unmask his foe. Determined to unveil the identity of his enemy, who has erased his memory, he will clash with the strange customs of his people, based on the illumination provided by the four suns: in particular during the Mirk, when all the suns set in the sky and night falls, the men and women of Marune are left to strange behaviors. The novel ends abruptly.

# Mary Edna Hill Gray Dow

**Mary Edna Hill Gray Dow** (also known as **Mary E. H. G. Dow**; December 15, 1848 – August 24, 1914) was an American financier, school principal, and correspondent.

Dow was president of the Dover, New Hampshire, horsecar railroad, and believed to be the first woman in the world to hold such a position. She held the controlling stock of the road, which she bought up when she found that a syndicate of Boston men was trying to buy it. Prior to this position, she was a teacher of French and German in a seminary, and a journalist. She also made considerable money through real estate transactions.

## Early years and education

Mary Edna Hill was born in Dover, New Hampshire, on December 15, 1848, a daughter of Nathaniel Rogers Hill. She was of Puritan ancestry.

Dow was educated partly in Dover. While she was yet a child, her parents removed to Boston, Massachusetts, and it was there she got the larger part of her schooling. At the age of 17, she graduated with high honors from Charlestown High School. She developed business experience on account of the invalidism of her father, who was a farmer.

## Career

For some years, Dow was a successful assistant principal of the Rochester, New Hampshire, high school, and afterwards went to St. Louis, Missouri, where for three years, she was instructor in French and German in a female academy. Dow also worked as a correspondent for several newspapers, among them *The Boston Journal*, *Boston Traveller*, *New Hampshire Statesman*, the Dover *Enquirer*, and some Southern papers. While in the West, she conceived a liking for the stage, because of her success in amateur theatricals, but the disapproval of friends caused her to abandon the idea.

In October 1875, she married a wealthy resident of Dover, George Frederick Gray, part owner and editor of the Dover *Press*, a Democratic weekly paper published there. They spent two years in Europe. Three children were born to them. During the marriage, she was entrusted with the care of what estate he possessed. He died in 1880.

Five years after the death of Mr. Gray, she married Dr. Henry Dow, a physician of Dover, and a gentleman owning considerable property. After spending some time in England, they returned to Dover where Mrs. Dow began to attract attention as a financier. Her business capacity came rather conspicuously into notice as Dr. Dow was very willing to have her take charge of his affairs.

In January 1888, Dow was elected president of the Dover Horse Railway, an event that brought attention in railway circles. She was familiar with the circumstances of the road and had secured a majority of its stock. The road had been a failing enterprise. The patrons found fault with the accommodations and the excessiveness of fares, and the stockholders were unhappy with the excessiveness of expenses and the small receipts. For years, the horse railway had paid only a small dividend. A Boston syndicate made overtures for possession of the whole stock, and with such success that the board of directors reached the point of voting to sell. Mrs. Dow was out of town during these negotiations, but returned as the sale was about to be consummated. She held a small amount of the stock, and was approached with an offer for it at something like one-third the price at which it had been bought. She at once decided that, if the stock were so low, and yet the Boston syndicate expected to make the road pay, any other able financier might reasonably indulge the same hope; that, if there were any profits to be obtained, they ought to be saved to Dover, and that she would try her own hand in the matter. Her attitude interrupted the syndicate's scheme, and for some weeks, there was a contest of wits to see who would get control of the most blocks. When the next meeting was called, it was supposed that the property would be transferred to the Boston party, but it transpired that Mrs. Dow acquired more than half the stock. Her election to the presidency was certain. As her own votes would elect the directorate, that body would be made up by those she chose. Several among the Dover gentlemen, who desired to be on the board, said that they would not vote for a woman for president as it was simply preposterous and meant bankruptcy. But the matter was presented to the gentlemen in this form: Agree to vote for Mrs. Dow, and you can hold office; otherwise you can not. They succumbed, but with chagrin and trepidation.

After her election to the presidency, her first moves as general manager were to double the insurance on the property, inaugurate a system of cash payments, thereby avoiding debts, and getting on all bills a discount of ten per cent. People who dealt with the road had not been accustomed to receive ready money from it, and the pleasant surprise caused them to make their discounts more liberal. She raised the wages of the employees, and reduced the fare from six cents to five cents. The reduction of fare pleased the public and augmented the receipts. Being a real judge of horses and material, she was able to save the road a considerable amount of expenditures. She also added to the receipts by using tickets with advertisements relating to a favorite brand of tobacco, and this little resort, although considered to be sharp business sense, was regarded as a poor choice for a woman. At the close of the year, under Mrs. Dow's administration, the affairs of the road showed an improved condition, and a dividend of 11 percent was declared. Later, she sold her interest at a profit.

## Personal life

Dow's first husband, George Frederick Gray, was born at Dover. He was survived by his widow and three children: George, an illustrator, with a studio in Boston; and Ruth and Charles, twins. Mr. Gray was prominent in politics in Strafford County, New Hampshire, and was once a member of the Massachusetts State Senate. He was widely known also in journalism and as editor of the Dover *Gazette* and as contributor to the *Herald*, was one of the pioneer and progressive newspaper men of the area.

Dow's second husband, Henry Dow was also born at Dover, on the site of the old Strafford bank. He always made his home in his native place, where he died in 1889, at the age of 89 years. After his studies at Harvard College, he subsequently was engaged in the study of medicine but when the time came for him to begin the practice of his profession, he discovered that his interests lay in a different direction. Therefore, he became a farmer and for many years, interested himself in the cultivation and improvement of his land lying in the vicinity of Bellamy, Strafford County. He was never an active politician but gave his continued support to the Republican Party.

Dow died at Dover at the age of 66 on August 24, 1914.

title: Mary Phylinda Dole

abstract: Mary Phylinda Dole was an American physician who practiced medicine in New England and was the first to earn a bachelor's degree at Mount Holyoke College. She is thought to be the first female physician to have practiced at Franklin County Public Hospital, now known as Baystate Franklin Medical Center.

# Mary Phylinda Dole

**Mary Phylinda Dole** (August 31, 1862 – February 23, 1947) was an American physician who practiced medicine in New England and was the first to earn a bachelor's degree at Mount Holyoke College. She is thought to be the first female physician to have practiced at Franklin County Public Hospital, now known as Baystate Franklin Medical Center.

## Early life and education

Mary Phylinda Dole was born in 1862 to George Carpenter Dole, a farmer, and Philinda Field Dole in Shelburne, Massachusetts. After the deaths of both parents, in 1871 she moved to live with a relative in Ashfield, Massachusetts, where she attended a local school and then Sanderson Academy. She attended Mount Holyoke Female Seminary between 1881 and 1884 before graduating in 1886. Dole then studied medicine at the Women's Medical College of Baltimore from 1886 to 1888, earning her M.D. in just two years. She attended Mount Holyoke again, now Mount Holyoke College, from 1888 to 1889 after the school received its college charter and became the first graduate to complete a Bachelor of Science degree there. Dole spent additional time studying at the Pasteur Institute in Paris, France and visited medical clinics in Berlin and Dresden, Germany from 1894 to 1896.

Mary Phylinda Dole named a number of influences in her life and career, including Marie Elizabeth Zakrzewska, her mentor Cornelia Clapp, and Elizabeth Blackwell.

## Medical practice

After graduating from Mount Holyoke College, Dole practiced medicine for a short time in Shelburne Falls, MA before accepting an internship and working at the New England Hospital for Women and Children in Boston until 1891. At that time, she opened a private practice in the Hovey House, which is now the Greenfield Public Library in Greenfield, Massachusetts. Dole supported Mount Holyoke College as a trustee from 1901 to 1907, and remained involved in the college community for many years. She served as a traveling "country doctor" to the area until she moved to New Haven, Connecticut in 1906 and established a new practice. She moved back to Massachusetts in 1919 and practiced medicine in Northampton until 1927.

## Later life

Dole's career was cut short by health issues, and she retired from medicine in 1927 at age 65. She began a secondary career in hand-weaving, and became successful in this field as well. She worked with the Deerfield Society of Blue and White Needlework. Dole used the funds obtained from selling her work to create a fellowship to support the education of female medical students at Mount Holyoke. The scholarship exists today as the Dr. Mary P. Dole Medical Fellowship. Funds for the scholarship were also provided by the sale of her autobiography. Dole died in her home in Shelburne in 1947 and is buried in the East Shelburne Cemetery.

## Honors

In 1902, Dole was elected as a member of the Franklin District Medical Society.

She was President of the Mount Holyoke Club of Franklin County and Honorary President of the Mount Holyoke Club of New Haven

In 1937, she became one of the fourteen first recipients of Mount Holyoke College's Medal of Honor for her service to the college as an alumna.

## Autobiography

She privately published her autobiography, *A Doctor in Homespun*, in 1941. It chronicles her life and her medical practice, focusing on her time as a "country doctor".

title: María (novel)

abstract: María is a novel written by Colombian writer Jorge Isaacs between 1864 and 1867. It is a costumbrist novel representative of the Spanish Romantic movement. It may be considered a precursor of the criollist novels of the 1920s and 1930s in Latin America. Despite being Isaacs' only novel, María is considered one of the most important works of 19th-century Spanish American literature. Alfonso M. Escudero characterized it as the greatest Spanish-language romantic novel. The Romantic style of the novel has been compared to the one of Chateaubriand's Atala. Notable is the description of the landscape and the artistic style of the prose. The novel has several autobiographical elements, such as both main characters being natives of Valle del Cauca, or Efraín's departure to Bogotá to pursue his studies. It has been claimed that María herself is based, at least in part, upon a cousin of the author. The hacienda "El Paraíso" and its large slave population, both owned by Isaacs' family, also figures largely throughout the novel; the location is currently preserved as a museum. María Monument in Cali depicts the characters of the novel.

***María*** is a novel written by Colombian writer Jorge Isaacs between 1864 and 1867. It is a costumbrist novel representative of the Spanish Romantic movement. It may be considered a precursor of the criollist novels of the 1920s and 1930s in Latin America.

Despite being Isaacs' only novel, *María* is considered one of the most important works of 19th-century Spanish American literature. Alfonso M. Escudero characterized it as the greatest Spanish-language romantic novel. The Romantic style of the novel has been compared to the one of Chateaubriand's *Atala*. Notable is the description of the landscape and the artistic style of the prose.

The novel has several autobiographical elements, such as both main characters being natives of Valle del Cauca, or Efraín's departure to Bogotá to pursue his studies. It has been claimed that María herself is based, at least in part, upon a cousin of the author. The hacienda "*El Paraíso*" and its large slave population, both owned by Isaacs' family, also figures largely throughout the novel; the location is currently preserved as a museum.

María Monument in Cali depicts the characters of the novel.

## Plot

The story narrates the idyllic and tragic love between María and her cousin Efraín, both natives of Valle del Cauca. In the middle of a romantic and bucolic landscape, the young characters fall in love with each other but circumstances prevent the full realization of their love. Efraín returns from a six year stay in Bogotá, the capital of Colombia, during which time he was pursuing his high school education. After Efraín returns to Valle del Cauca the couple profess their love for each other, but they must temper their relationship since María becomes ill, apparently due to the excitement of their relationship. They can only stay together for three months before Efraín is forced to travel to London to study medicine. Two years later Efraín returns to Colombia after hearing that Maria is very ill. He returns too late, finding that María has died of illness. Heart-broken, Efraín decides to leave Cauca definitely, this time without a fixed destination.

# María Luisa Penne

**María Luisa Penne Rullan de Castillo** (11 September 1913 – 6 October 2005), born in Ponce, Puerto Rico, was a painter, artist, and educator who taught and influenced the work of well-known artists such as Noemí Ruiz, Jaime Carrero, Rafael Rivera Garcia, and printmaker Susanna Herrero among others.

## Early life

Doña María Luisa was born in Ponce, Puerto Rico on September 11, 1913.

## Education

Doña Maria Luisa attended the Pratt Institute in New York from 1932 to 1935 and became the first Puerto Rican to graduate from the prestigious art and design institute. She continued her studies, obtaining a Bachelor of Arts from the University of Puerto Rico in 1939 and a master's in Art from the Art Institute of Chicago in 1947. Her doctoral studies were conducted at Columbia University in New York.

After returning to Puerto Rico, Mrs. Castillo or "la teacher" - as she was known to her disciples - began to work for the empowerment of women in the art world, a field traditionally reserved for male members of society. She firmly believed in the importance of education as a means to achieve such empowerment. Therefore, she decided to get involved in the field of art education.

Penne Rullan designed and implemented the art curriculum for the Polytechnic Institute of San Germán (now known as the Inter-American University of Puerto Rico) and for the Colegio de Mayaguez also known as the University of Puerto Rico at Mayagüez. She was Head of the Department of Fine Arts at both institutions from 1940–1961 and 1961–1980, respectively.

## Personal life

Penne Rullan married Don Francisco Castillo Amy and had two children.

## Death

Penne died in San Juan, Puerto Rico in October 2005.

## Disciples

Among Penne's students was Rafael Rivera Garcia.

## Artist work and legacy

Some of her art work can be seen at the collection of the Institute of Puerto Rican Culture and at the Museum of Art of Puerto Rico.

# Masbuq

**Masbuq** or Masbuk (Arabic: مَسْبُوق) is derived from the word سبق which means 'came ahead of somebody or something'. In Islamic terminology, a Masbuq is a person in Salah, whose Imam has preceded him a few rakahs or the whole prayer, or he is a person who has joined the Imam after one or more rakahs. mashuq is a person who came late to prayer.

## Rules to Follow

**Masbuq** has to follow the following rules:

1. He should not make Salam with his Imam; rather as soon as Imam completes his first Salam he should stand up to complete his prayer.
2. By completing his own prayer, a "Masbuq" shall perform all the acts of prayers in the same manner, as he has to perform while praying individually.
3. For recitation of surah he shall follow his own rakah count i.e. if he missed two rakah with the Imam and has stood up to complete these remaining rakah, he will have to recite surah in both of them because these rakah will be deemed to be his first and second rakah and his performance with the Imam will be deemed to be third and fourth. Likewise, if he has missed three rakah and performed only one rakah with the Imam, then while performing the remaining three rakah, he will recite a surah in the first two rakah only and will not recite it in the third.
4. However, in the matter of Qa'dah (sitting for Tashahhud), he will follow the total rakah count he has actually performed whether with the Imam or on his own. Therefore, if he has missed three rakah and has performed only one rakah with the Imam, then he will have to sit for Qa'dah right in the first rakah while completing his own prayer, because this is actually his second rakah as combined with the one performed with the Imam, and since Qa'dah is obligatory after every two rakah he has to make Qa'dah right there and he will not sit in the next rakah because it is actually his third rakah.

# Mathilde Wildauer

**Mathilde Wildauer** (7 February 1820 – 23 December 1878) was an Austrian actress, later an operatic soprano, taking leading roles at the Theater am Kärntnertor in Vienna.

## Life

Wildauer was born in Vienna, daughter of Vinzenz Wildauer, a stockbroker, and his wife Clara. Her acting debut, after success in amateur theatre, was at the Burgtheater in 1834, as Susette in *Die Rosen des Herrn von Malesherbes* by August von Kotzebue.

She went on to appear in comedies by Kotzebue, August Wilhelm Iffland, Roderich Benedix and Eduard von Bauernfeld, and became well liked by the public. She was particularly successful as Katherina in Shakespeare's *The Taming of the Shrew*.

As an operatic soprano she first appeared in 1845 at the Theater in der Josefstadt, in operas including *La fille du régiment* by Gaetano Donizetti as Marie. In 1846 she appeared at the Theater an der Wien, and in 1849 at the Theater am Kärntnertor. During this period she continued in acting roles at the Burgtheater, where In 1848 she created the role of Nandl in the original production of the Singspiel *Das Versprechen hinterm Herd* ("The promise behind the hearth") by Alexander Baumann; this was regarded as one of her greatest successes.

From 1851 she devoted her career to opera, and joined the company of the Theater am Kärntnertor. Roles included Susanna in Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's *The Marriage of Figaro*, and Zerlina in Mozart's *Don Giovanni*; the title roles in Gaetano Donizetti's operas *Lucia di Lammermoor* and *Linda di Chamounix*; the title role in *Die Zigeunerin* (*The Bohemian Girl*) by Michael William Balfe; and Katharina in *Der Nordstern* (*L'étoile du nord*) by Giacomo Meyerbeer, who directed the Vienna production in 1855, insisting on Wildauer taking the role.

She was also successful as a concert singer, but rarely appeared outside Vienna. She retired after a final appearance in 1864, as Isabella in Meyerbeer's *Robert der Teufel* (*Robert le diable*).

Wildauer died in 1878, and was buried at Hietzing Cemetery in Vienna.

The airport is home to a chapter of the experimental aircraft association.

## History

### 1940s-1960s

Mason mayor Arthur W. Jewett believed that the popularity of aviation during World War II, and the return of veterans to the area, would make an airport an increasingly important asset to the community. Further, the airport could promote industrial development around Mason. On December 16, 1943, Jewett purchased the 180 acres (73 ha) Elsworth Farm southeast of Mason.

In early 1944, runway 9/27 was constructed at 2,800 feet (853 m) with a turf surface. An existing hip roof barn at the west end of the airfield was converted into an airplane hangar capable of holding three or four planes. A hangar with room for six planes, was built at the northwest end of the airport. A Civil Air Patrol Squadron plane from Lansing was the first to land on the new runway. In October 1944, Stanley Keck became the first operator of the new Jewett Flying School. A 2,500 feet (762 m) north–south runway was completed at the east end of the existing runway.

An increase of privately owned aircraft based at the airport prompted the construction of five tee hangars along Eden Road in mid-1946. The Sycamore Valley Flyers flying club operated at the airport from 1946 to 1966. In 1948, Laylin Jewett established an aircraft maintenance facility at Jewett Field. In the fall of 1949, lights were installed on runway 9/27. A model airplane hobby shop opened at the airport in the winter of 1949.

By 1950, there were more than 30 planes based at the airport. In September 1950, the airport owner, Arthur Jewett, decided to close the airport. By the mid-1950s, Jewett reopened the airport with Bartlett Smith as Assistant Airport Manager. Harold Manville operated a flight training and aircraft rental business at the airport from 1968 to 1974.

### 1970s to present

In October 1973, a two-year disagreement over a lease on the airport was settled between Arthur Jewett and the airport's operator, Harold Manville. In November, the Michigan Aeronautics Commission granted a license to Arthur Jewett, allowing the facility to remain in operation. By 1973, Jewett reported losing $150,000 in operating the airport.

In March 1977, the Capital Region Airport Authority purchased the 180 acres (73 ha) of airport property from Arthur Jewett as a reliever airfield for Capital City Airport (now Capital Region International Airport) in Lansing. The existing buildings at the airport were removed and a new 3,000 feet (914 m) asphalt runway 9/27 was constructed. The north–south runway was decommissioned and a new terminal was built on its location. During the next decade, the Capital Region Airport Authority purchased approximately 100 acres (40 ha) of adjoining property, allowing the runway to be lengthened to 4,000 feet (1,220 m). A lighted parallel taxiway was also constructed.

The Experimental Aircraft Association, Chapter 55, moved to Jewett Field in 1984. The Association built the airport's Chapter Hangar in 1985, which provides space for members' aircraft, a workshop, and a meeting room.

In 1998, Jewett Field operator AeroGenesis Aviation built a maintenance hangar and office building at the airport.

In June 2009, Lansing Community College signed a five-year lease for a hangar at Jewett Field to house the college's aviation mechanics program. The program is based out of nearby Capital Region International Airport, with potential displacement due to that airport's expansion plans. By February 2010, the June 2009 lease was under litigation. In February 2011, the hangar was purchased by Lansing Community College. In May, the college announced that it would move its aviation mechanics program from Capital Region International Airport to the Jewett Field hangar.

### Aviation Days

Aviation Days is an annual event at Jewett Field that showcases vintage aircraft, including homemade planes, antique passenger planes, and World War II-era military aircraft. The event is organized by the Experimental Aircraft Association, Chapter 55, in Mason.

## Facilities and aircraft

Mason Jewett Field covers an area of 275 acres (111 ha) at an elevation of 920 feet (280 m) above mean sea level. It has one runway designated 10/28 with an asphalt surface measuring 4,004 by 75 feet (1,220 x 23 m). The airport is staffed Monday through Friday from 7AM until 4PM. Currently Jewett Field has hangar space for more than 80 airplanes.

The aircraft has a fixed-base operator that offers jet fuel and avgas.

For the 12-month period ending December 31, 2020, the airport had 6500 aircraft operations, an average of 125 per week, all general aviation. This is a decrease from roughly 10,000 operations in 2010; 17,822 in 2009; and 20,960 in 2008. In 2020, there were 83 aircraft based at this airport (an increase from 64 aircraft in 2009): 71 single-engine and 8 multi-engine airplanes, 2 helicopters, 1 jet airplane, and 1 ultralight.

## Incidents and accidents

* On July 26, 2006, a Beechcraft A36 Bonanza crashed during climbout from Mason Field. The pilot reported preflight and takeoff were normal, but the airplane hesitated and stopped climbing 150 feet above the ground. The plane climbed slowly for a moment then started a descent. Airspeed dropped, the stall horn sounded, and the airplane buffeted; the pilot lowered the nose to gain airspeed and banked to avoid obstacles, but the wing impacted an antenna and the landing gear impacted two cars and a parking lot. The plane came to rest and the occupants escaped before the aircraft was consumed by fire. The probable cause was found to be the pilot's failure to maintain adequate airspeed which resulted in a stall/mush on takeoff.
* On May 8, 2007, an Aeronca 7AC ground looped upon landing at Mason County. The pilot stated that the landing was good, but when he reached to turn off the carb heat, the airplane turned to the left. He over-controlled with right rudder and attempted to abort the landing by adding power. He became airborne, stalled, and clipped a tree, causing the airplane to impact terrain. The probable cause was found to be the pilot's failure to maintain directional control during the landing roll and failure to maintain sufficient airspeed during the aborted landing attempt, leading to an inadvertent stall.
* On September 17, 2010, a Tecnam P2004 Bravo single-engine plane lost power and crashed in a field north of the airport shortly after takeoff, crushing the nose of the plane. The pilot was hospitalized.
* On September 1, 2022, a Dassault Falcon business jet (N123RA) diverted from Capital Region International Airport (KLAN) due to engine issues and ran off the end of the runway into the grass.
