abstract: The Netherlands Chamber Choir is a full-time and independent professional Dutch choir. It was founded in 1937 by a nl:Felix de Nobel as the Chorus Pro Musica to perform Bach cantatas for the Dutch radio. For over eighty years, the Nederlands Kamerkoor has enjoyed a place at the top of the international choral world. Since the very beginning the choir has been known for being adventurous and innovative. It owes this reputation to commissions of works by both well-known composers and young talent, and a continuous search for new formats and exciting collaborations. Famous composers such as Francis Poulenc, Frank Martin, Rudolf Escher, Hendrik Andriessen, Mauricio Kagel, Sir John Tavener and Henk Badings composed for the choir. More recently also Sir Harrison Birtwistle, Fred Momotenko and James MacMillan. In the past years, the choir performed newly composed works by a.o. Lera Auerbach, Michel van der Aa, Martin Smolka, Nico Muhly and Sir George Benjamin. The choir has been praised by critics in and outside the Netherlands: “treacherous harmonies”, according to The Times and Volkskrant: “a leading top ensemble.” Education and participation is a vital part of the choir's mission. The Netherlands has thousands of amateur choirs and numerous youth choirs. The Nederlands Kamerkoor provides coaching and workshops, and ‘adopts’ choirs as supporting act for their own concerts. Since September 2015 Peter Dijkstra has been chief-conductor of the Nederlands Kamerkoor. He is one of the most in demand choral conductors world-wide. Amongst his predecessors were such renowned conductors like Uwe Gronostay, Tõnu Kaljuste, Stephen Layton, Risto Joost and founder Felix de Nobel.

## Discography


title: Nave's Topical Bible

abstract: Nave's Topical Bible is a book written by Orville James Nave (1841–1917) and published by Thomas Nelson Publishers. Nave was a chaplain in the United States Army and referred to his work as "the result of fourteen years of delight and untiring study of the Word of God." It is a topical concordance of the Bible, and contains Biblical references to over 20,000 topics. Scripture is quoted over 100,000 times; the same Scripture citation may appear under several headings. The topic headings are broad, covering many religious concepts, geographical regions, and names of Biblical figures. While theological concepts such as salvation and worship are included, a wide range of topics, such as Biblical references to ropes, are also included. This reflects the author's intention, as stated in the book's preface, to "...note and classify everything found in the Scriptures". The book took fourteen years to complete. Its original copyrights were 1896 and 1897. Until at least 1907 the book was published by the Topical Bible Publishing Company of Lincoln, Nebraska. At least seven editions have been published, based on the King James Version and Revised Version of the Bible. Each verse of the Bible is indexed according to the topics it is classified under. Christian figures such as Billy Graham have endorsed the book.

# Naved Ahmed (Islamabad cricketer)

**Naved Ahmed** (born 22 April 1971) is a former Pakistani cricketer. A right-handed top-order batsman, his career for Islamabad spanned from 1993 to 2001, and included a number of matches as captain.

## Career

Born in Islamabad, Naved played at under-19 level for Islamabad, and in January 1992 scored 45 against the touring English under-19 side. He made his senior Wills Cup debut in October 1993, against Rawalpindi. On his first-class debut the following season, against Lahore City in the Quaid-i-Azam Trophy, Naved made a first-innings duck, and was one of nine batsman to fall to Naved Anjum (who finished with 9/35). In the second innings he was out to Test bowler Abdul Qadir for one run. During the 1995–96 Wills Cup season, Naved was appointed captain for all three of Islamabad's matches, despite being only 24 and having played only one prior match in the format. He first became a regular for Islamabad during the 1996–97 season, when his seven Quaid-i-Azam matches yielded 223 runs (the sixth-best return for his team). His season included a maiden first-class half-century, 72 against Lahore City, and also a maiden limited-overs half-century, a man of the match 69 against Peshawar in the Wills Cup.

Naved also had a successful 1998–99 season, entrenching himself as one of Islamabad's opening batsmen. Against Khan Research Labs in the Tissot Cup (the renamed Wills Cup), he scored the only century of his career, finishing with 120 from 121 balls as Islamabad successfully chased a target of 321. In the Quaid-i-Azam, he played eight out of nine possible matches, and finished with 244 runs, including two half-centuries. Naved also made his first-class captaincy debut, captaining Islamabad in three consecutive matches late in the season. The following season, he briefly captained Islamabad in both formats, but was later dropped from the side altogether as his form deteriorated. However, he did take career-best bowling figures against the Karachi Blues in one Quaid-e-Azam match, finishing with 2/22 bowling right-arm leg spin. The 2000–01 season was Naved's last at first-class level. He finished his career with 669 first-class runs at an average of just 15.20, with a slightly better list-A record – 359 runs at 23.93.

title: Ägidienkirche, Speyer

abstract: The Ägidienkirche was a church in the German city of Speyer. Dedicated to saint Giles, it was founded around 1140 as part of a hospital complex by bishop Burchard on land owned by himself and his mother in what was then the city outskirts. In 1148, after his mother's death, he granted it to the Augustinian canonry at Hördt. It soon became one of Speyer's parish churches, with clergy supplied or appointed by the canonry. Its last Roman Catholic priest, Jost Neblich, was presented in 1565. The Protestant Frederick III, Elector Palatine took control of the canonry in 1566, forcibly expelled the canons from the Ägidienkirche and in spring 1572 installed its first Protestant pastor, Johann Willing. Leopold V's troops occupied Speyer during the Thirty Years War and he handed the church over to a new Capuchin foundation in the city on 1 May 1623. It was in such a poor state that they laid the foundation stone for a new hall church, designed by the Capuchin brother Peter of Cologne, completed in 1628 and costing Leopold 10,000 florins. The bishop of Speyer ordered that the new church's main altar retain the dedication to St Giles. New monastic buildings and hospitals were also built on the old site. The Capuchins were expelled in 1650 following the Peace of Westphalia and a priest was even dragged from the altar during mass. The new church became a Protestant parish church, although the monastery was given back to the Capuchins in 1688 when the French took control of the areas during the Nine Years War, although it was damaged when the French burned the city the following year. Monks had returned by 1694 and the order's minister general visited early in 1766. It refused the Civil Constitution of the Clergy after the French occupied the city in the War of the First Coalition but returned to the monastery in 1796. The Treaty of Campo Formio in 1797 formally annexed Speyer to France and the following year the monastery was declared state property and the church made the city's main parish church, since it was planned to demolish the city's ruined cathedral. Instead the cathedral was saved and the monastery sold off in 1806, though the deconsecrated church was acquired by the Kingdom of Bavaria in 1807 for use as a customs warehouse. In 1979 it was turned into a community centre named the Ägidienhaus.

# Negrara

**Negrara** is a red Italian wine grape variety grown in north east Italy including the Veneto region where it is a permitted variety in the *Denominazione di origine controllata* (DOC) wine Amarone. While the grape was once more widely planted in the region its numbers have been steadily declining for most of the late 20th and early 21st century.

## DOC wines

In the Valpolicella region, Negrara is a permitted minor component in the full bodied DOCG straw wine Amarone behind Corvina Veronese (40-70% of the wine), Rondinella (20-40%) and Molinara (5-25%). Along with Barbera and Sangiovese, Negrara can make up to 15% of the wine provided the grapes used for the DOC wine are harvested to a yield no greater than 8 tonnes/hectare. The wines are then aged a minimum of two years prior to release with a minimum alcohol level of 14%. Similar restrictions and blend composition exist for the regular *rosso* wine of the Valpolicella DOC except that the grapes do not have to be dried prior to fermentation with yields permitted up to 12 tonnes/ha and a minimum alcohol of 11%. A separate *Superiore* bottling is permitted for wines that have been aged at least one year in oak.

Around Lake Garda Negrara is also permitted in the Bardolino DOC (but not the DOCG wine of *Bardolino Superiore*) where it can account for up to 10% of the blend behind Corvina (35-65%), Rondinella (10-40%) and Molinara (10-20%) with Rossignola, Barbera, Sangiovese and Garganega allowed to fill in up to 15% of the wine.

# Nebula Maker

***Nebula Maker*** is a science fiction novel by Olaf Stapledon and published posthumously by Bran's Head Books in 1976. It was written in the 1930s and discovered in 1976. It appears that this novel was written between his other books; *Last and First Men* in 1930, and *Star Maker* in 1937.

## History

Stapledon first announced his intention to write a history of the universe in his 1935 work *Odd John*, in which the main character, John Wainwright, has already produced such a work. (Stapledon would often mention his next literary project in the book in which he was currently engaged. The story of *Odd John* is, itself, encapsulated in passing in 1932's *Last Men in London*). Stapledon had by this time already completed the draft we now know as *Nebula Maker*, which he passed on to his friend, the novelist Naomi Mitchison, in the summer of 1933.

Mitchison offered her own criticisms of the manuscript; she found the God-figure too traditionally male, and was amused by Stapledon's myth-making, which jarred with his self-image as a man of practicality and pragmatism. Mitchison's criticism impressed Stapledon enough to send him back to the drawing-board, and the manuscript was duly shelved, to be found four years later in Stapledon's desk. Stapledon then began work on what would become *Star Maker*.

*Nebula Maker* was published as a work in its own right in 1976, by Bran's Head Books. It contained a foreword by Harvey Satty, then president of the Olaf Stapledon Society.

## Plot

Like *Star Maker*, *Nebula Maker* begins with a single human observer staring at the sky and considering the immensity of the cosmos. From that point, the stories diverge. The narrator immediately sees the face of the creator – an ever-shifting mask of constant change, human then alien, demonic then angelic. The narrator watches in wonder as this vision of God creates our universe.

The universe is peopled at first by the immense, bizarre lifeforms whose history takes up the rest of the manuscript – the nebulae. Singularly or in clusters, these vast entities come to consciousness and express their passions through a frenzied cosmic dance. Some, however become perverted and fanatical, and war breaks out in the heavens. It is discovered that nebulae can journey to other nebulae if they feed on the dead "flesh" of their fellows, and this development fuels aeons of conflict.

Two individual nebulae, Bright Heart and Fire Bolt, who embody the human types by which Stapledon was most, namely the saint and the revolutionary. Bright Heart preaches peace, and is martyred; Fire Bolt brings about revolution and changes the social order of the cosmos.

With Bright Heart dead, and Fire Bolt crumbling into senescence, the remaining nebulae attempt to bring about universal peace and harmony, but a quarrel over how to do this once again results in war. The history of the nebulae is thus one of tragedy, and as they dissolve into the stars and planets of our own cosmical time, the narrator wonders at the creator who could author such a complex dance of hope and futility.

## Relation to *Star Maker*

Stapledon retained some elements of the history of the nebulae for the penultimate chapters of *Star Maker*, though the material was greatly changed and the concept of inter-nebular war removed completely. The nebular creatures of *Star Maker* are still conscious, spiritual beings, but their tragedy is now one of disease rather than war; they accept that their fate is to decay into the stars and planets that will one day teem with smaller and more hectic life. They do not seem to have names.

## Relation to Stapledon's other works

Bright Heart is loosely based on Jesus Christ and Mahatma Gandhi. Fire Bolt is patterned after Lenin. Stapledon explored the more human elements of *Nebula Maker*, and these two personality types, in his non-fiction work *Saints and Revolutionaries* .

# École internationale de Montréal

**École internationale de Montréal (Secondaire)** (lit. "International School of Montreal (Secondary)") is a public French-language high school located in Westmount, Quebec. It is a part of the Centre de services scolaire de Montréal (CSSDM).

## About the school

Most people use the acronym **ÉIM** (EIM) or **ÉIMS** (EIMS) when referring to the school. Its principal was Julie Duchesne until 2020 when it became Luc Claude. The school is situated near the Westmount Public Library. The school was opened in 1988 and is an International Baccalaureate (IB) school. The school uniform consists of a choice of red or grey polos and of a marine-black vest or jacket. Students were free to wear anything non offensive and not too short on the bottom, but in fall 2016 they decided that students should only wear marine or black unicolored clothing on the bottom. But since students often wore blue pants and said that they were just washed-off marine pants, the school imposed a black-only pants rule in 2017.

Even though the high school is public, it has an admission exam that sixth graders do in October each year. Usually, the school admits 120 students per year (four classes of 30). Those who studied in École internationale de Montréal (Primaire) have priority to be admitted to EIMS. The number of students from École internationale de Montréal (Primaire) who choose the school varies from 40 to 60 per year, thus leaving only 60–80 places for students from other schools. The number of students taking the admission tests varies from 600 to 1000, making the acceptance rate vary from 6% to 13%.

### Milestones

In 2015, the school ranked 7th within all of Quebec's high schools, making it the second-best public high school in Quebec and first in Montreal.

In 2016, the school ranked third within all of Quebec's high schools, making it the best public high school in Quebec and Montreal.

In 2020, the school ranked first within all of Quebec's high schools, achieving a perfect score of 10, making it one of the best high schools in Quebec and Montreal.

# Édouard de La Rochefoucauld

Count ***Édouard* François Marie de La Rochefoucauld** (4 February 1874 – 9 February 1968), 3rd Duke of Bisaccia, was a French aristocrat and landowner.

## Early life

La Rochefoucauld was born on 4 February 1874 at the Hôtel de La Rochefoucauld-Doudeauville at 47 Rue de Varenne in the 7th arrondissement of Paris. He was the youngest son of Sosthène II de La Rochefoucauld, 4th Duke of Doudeauville, and, his second wife, Princess *Marie* Georgine Sophie Hedwige Eugenie of Ligne (1843–1911). From his father's first marriage to Princess Yolande of Polignac (a daughter of Prime Minister Prince Jules de Polignac), he had an elder half-sister, Yolande de La Rochefoucauld (who married Charles Honoré Emmanuel d'Albert de Luynes, 9th Duke of Luynes). From his parents' marriage, his elder siblings were Charles de La Rochefoucauld-Doudeauville (who took the Spanish title of Duke of Estrées); Elisabeth de la Rochefoucauld (who married their cousin, Louis, 9th Prince of Ligne); Armand de La Rochefoucauld (who became the 5th Duke of Doudeauville and married Princess Marié Lise Radziwiłł); and Marie de La Rochefoucauld (who married François d'Harcourt, 10th Duke of Harcourt).

His paternal grandparents were Sosthènes I de La Rochefoucauld and Elisabeth-Hélène-Pierre de Montmorency Laval (the daughter of the French Minister of Foreign Affairs Mathieu de Montmorency, 1st Duke of Montmorency-Laval). His maternal grandparents were the Belgian Ambassador to France, Eugène, 8th Prince of Ligne, and, his third wife, Princess Jadwiga Lubomirska (a daughter of Ukrainian Prince Henryk Ludwik Lubomirski).

## Career

On 16 May 1851, his father was created Duke of Bisaccia (*Duca di Bisaccia*) by King Ferdinand II in the peerage of the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies (second creation; through his grandmother's family, the Montmorency-Lavals). They were also inscripted among the Bavarian nobility as Princes under the title Duke of Bisaccia (*Herzog von Bisaccia*), on 24 November 1855 by King Maximilian II. His elder brother Charles inherited his father's dukedoms, only taking the Spanish title of Duke of Estrées, while transferring the title of Duke of Doudeauville to Armand, and the Sicilian title, Duke of Bisaccia, to Édouard, making him the 3rd Duke of Bisaccia in 1908.

From his father, he also inherited the Château d'Esclimont in Saint-Symphorien-le-Château, Eure-et-Loir, which his father, Sosthènes I, had inherited through his 1779 marriage into the Montmorency-Laval family. In 1910, he became a member of the Société archéologique d'Eure-et-Loir.

## Personal life

On 19 June 1901, Rochefoucauld married Camille de Colbert-Chabanais (1883–1969), a daughter of Édouard de Colbert, 3rd Baron de Colbert, Marquis de Chabannais (a grandson of Auguste François-Marie de Colbert-Chabanais), and Françoise Marie Auguste de Berckheim (daughter of Baron Sigismond Guillaume de Berckheim). Together, they were the parents of:

* *Marie-Carmen* Élisabeth Françoise Gabrielle de la Rochefoucauld (1902–1999), who married Count Louis Gabriel Raoul de Mailly-Nesle in 1928.
* Count *Stanislas* Édouard François Marie de La Rochefoucauld (1903–1965), who married Romanian-born French actress Alice Cocéa, the sister of socialist journalist and novelist N. D. Cocea, in 1926. They divorced in 1931, and he married married Princess Jeanne of San Felice de Viggiano, a daughter of Don Luigi Sanfelice, Prince of Viggiano, Marquis of Monteforte, and Princess Jeanne de Bauffremont-Courtenay (a daughter of Prince Paul de Bauffremont and Countess Valentine de Riquet de Caraman-Chimay), in 1947.
* Élisabeth de La Rochefoucauld (1909–2006), married Elliot Robert Le Gras du Luart de Montsaulnin, son of Roland Le Gras, Marquis du Luart, in 1929. She later married Mario Fausto Maria Pinci, in 1958.

The Duke died in Paris on 9 February 1968. Upon his death, the Château d'Esclimont passed to his eldest daughter Marie-Carmen, Countess of Mailly-Nesle.

### Descendants

Through his daughter Marie-Carmen, he was a grandfather of Laure-Suzanne-Marie (née de Mailly-Nesle) Maingard, who sold the Château d'Esclimont in 1981 to René Traversac, president of the luxury hotel group "Les Grandes Étapes Françaises". Traversac's son, Pierre Traversac, sold the estate for €35 million in January 2015.

Through his daughter Élisabeth, he was a grandfather of Roland du Luart, Marquis du Luart (b. 1940), a former member of the Senate of France, who has been president of the Jockey-Club de Paris since 2014 (like Édouard's father and brother, Armand).

# Émile Loubon

**Émile Charles Joseph Loubon** (12 January 1809, Aix-en-Provence \- 3 May 1863, Marseille) was a French painter, known for his panoramic landscapes of Provence, featuring figures and animals.

## Biography

He was the son of Noël Augustin François Loubon (1777-?) a wealthy merchant. He originally studied drawing with Jean-Antoine Constantin, François Marius Granet and Louis Mathurin Clérian (1768-1851). The latter, who also served as Director of the École de dessin d'Aix-en-Provence, appears to have had the most influence on his style.

In 1829, Granet invited him to come along on a study trip to Rome, where he became acquainted with architecture in addition to painting. It was there he began doing landscapes and remained for two years. He returned to France in 1831 and went to Paris, where he associated with other young artists; notably Thomas Couture, with whom he collaborated on a work that he was preparing for the Église Saint-Jean-de-Malte. In 1833, he was awarded a medal at the Salon.

The sudden financial ruin of his father forced a quick return to Aix in 1845. His uncle, who was an assistant at the École des beaux-arts de Marseille, managed to get him a position in the drawing school. He soon attracted attention for his efforts to find new, more realistic ways to teach drawing. During that time, he also created the first salon for "friends of the arts" in Marseille. It drew such participants as Eugène Delacroix, Camille Corot and Prosper Marilhat. After 1848, it was suspended due to unfavorable political events. The following year, he spent some time in the Near East and produced some Orientalist paintings.

In 1853, he held his second exhibition at the Salon, which was favorably reviewed. It was at this time that he began to express his dislike for the color blue. In his later years, blue became gray or brown in most of his works.

It is generally believed that he suffered from serious marital problems. His wife had been a model and was apparently very spoiled and petulant. He also expressed some bitterness for the art world in general, saying that he had been exploited and his works misused.

He was in poor health for many years and succumbed to intestinal cancer in 1863. Among his notable students may be mentioned Joseph-Marius Cabasson, Édouard-Auguste Imer and Alphonse Moutte.

title: Nello Pagani

abstract: Cirillo Pagani, nicknamed "Nello", was an Italian Grand Prix motorcycle road racer and Formula One driver. He was born in Milan, Lombardy, and died in Bresso. He was known for his long career, spanning from 1928 to 1955, and for becoming the first 125cc World Champion in the inaugural 1949 campaign. He almost became a double Champion in that first year of the World Championship series. In the 500cc class he was officially runner-up. The series was run over six rounds with a rider's best three scores counting towards the championship. Englishman Les Graham on an AJS was Pagani's main rival. Although Pagani scored more overall points than Graham, he lost the championship with two wins and a third place as his scores that counted, whilst Graham had two wins and a second. Pagani's car racing exploits resulted in wins at the Pau Grand Prix in 1947 and 1948, before his single Formula One World Championship Grand Prix, on 4 June 1950, in the 1950 Swiss Grand Prix at Bremgarten. He finished seventh and scored no championship points. He also finished fourth in the Modena Grand Prix that year, driving a Simca-Gordini. In 1952 Pagani finished second in class in the Mille Miglia, driving an OSCA but was more involved with motorcycle racing and became the manager of the MV Agusta team. He was the father of Alberto Pagani, who was also a racing motorcyclist.

# Hugh IV, Count of Maine

**Hugh IV** (died 25 March 1051) was Count of Maine from 1036 to 1051.

## Life

Hugh was the son of Count Herbert I of Maine, one of the Hugonides. He was a minor on the death of his father (1036) so was born between 1018 and 1022. Herbert Baco, his great-uncle and a supporter of the Angevins, acted as regent.

The bishop of Le Mans, Gervais de Château-du-Loir, was a partisan of the opposing Blois family. The bishop and regent clashed, with the outcome being the expulsion of Herbert by means of a popular council. Gervais then proclaimed Hugh to have reached his majority, and arranged a marriage for him, with Berthe of Blois.

Herbert, unlike his predecessors, followed the advice of his bishop. Gervais, unlike his uncle who he succeeded, Avesgaud de Bellême (who was an adherent of the counts of Anjou) was allied to the counts of Blois. Hugh, no doubt in support of his bishop, engaged in a number of wars with Count Geoffrey Martel of Anjou in the Loir valley. Shortly after Hugh's death, 26 March 1051, Gervais sought refuge in Normandy after being driven out of Maine. Gervais' success in strengthening the Bishopric of Le Mans served to downgrade the countship of Maine, which led to the county being absorbed into the domains of Anjou and Normandy.

## Family

Hugh married c. 1046 Bertha of Blois, who was the widow of Alan III, Duke of Brittany, and daughter of Odo II, Count of Blois and Ermengarde of Auvergne.

Their children were:

# Victor Man

**Victor Man** (born 1974) is a Romanian-born artist and painter.

## Career

In the late nineties, Victor Man enrolled as a student at the Academia de Arte Plastice Ioan Andreescu, Cluj, but left after two years in order to study in Jerusalem between 2000 and 2004. While in Jerusalem, he lived at the Poor Clares' Convent (Monastère de Sainte Claire), and during this time mainly painted from nature inside of the monastery garden. Man returned to Cluj in 2004 and finished his Bachelor of Fine Arts.

From 2005 onward his method of painting changed radically, from the previous observational 'au premier coup' paintings, executed during his study years in Jerusalem, to more conceptually charged paintings, produced through a slow and methodical process.

Victor Man received the 2014 Deutsche Bank Artist of the Year award, followed by a solo exhibition at the Deutsche Bank KunstHalle, Berlin, which traveled further to Zachęta National Gallery of Art, Warsaw, and Haus der Kunst, Munich.

In 2007 he represented Romania at the Venice Biennale, together with the artists Cristi Pogacean, Mona Vatamanu and Florin Tudor.

In 2015 he contributed to the Venice Biennale a second time, when his work was featured in the main exhibition, "All The World's Futures," curated by Okwui Enwezor in the Central Pavilion.

In 2016, Galerie Neu in Berlin hosted an exhibition of Man's work.

## Work, style

Man often has a preference for painting in dark colors, reminiscent of the work of 18th century landscape painters, who used black mirrors, also known as "Claude glasses," to turn colors into dark key tones. His works capture moods, offering the onlooker nothing but ambiguous, vague tracks, and leaving him or her in a haze. They also render a memory of images and objects made up of different layers of time, which appear to waver between disappearance and reminiscence. Victor Man’s highly personal poetics and the illustrative diversity of his output trace the outlines of an artistic world in which historical facts and subjective impressions coming from different worlds and periods are grounded. Man is said to be equally inspired by the ancient and the modern.

In his work he concentrates on the development of an autonomous iconography in which frequent literary references intermingle with his own biography. Literature and art history, collective memory and personal experience, are the elements woven together by the artist into a non-linear story where distinctions between present and past, fiction, imagination and reality are abolished. Uncertainty and oscillation between gender find an echo in other forms of transition: from human to animal, organic to artificial, face to mask. This overlapping of points of reference runs throughout all his works, where the fusion of occult, gender, androgyny, or, more generally, the uncertainty of physiognomy and appearance form a recurrent theme that strengthens the image of an identity in perpetual movement and suggests how rich and mysterious the essence of things can be beyond their appearance. The paintings never provide explanations, but hints and suggestions that leave the viewer with the feeling that a reversal of all meanings is always possible.

## Art market

Man has been represented by David Zwirner Gallery (since 2024), Gladstone Gallery and Galerie Max Hetzler.

title: Freeport Rail Bridge

abstract: The Freeport Rail Bridge is a truss bridge that carries the Norfolk Southern Railway across the Allegheny River between Freeport and Allegheny Township in Pennsylvania. A structure originally created on this site by the Pennsylvania Railroad as part of their West Penn Line in 1866. In 1895, the railroad replaced this bridge; the third and current incarnation was completed in 1950, along with new approach ramps that eliminated a narrow tunnel. Prior to 1957, passenger service was carried along this line alongside freight. Following the decline of the PRR, Conrail took over control of the bridge. Currently, it is operated as part of the Pittsburgh Division of Norfolk Southern.

abstract: Padina boergesenii, commonly known as the leafy rolled-blade alga, is a species of small brown alga found in the tropical and subtropical western Atlantic Ocean, the Mediterranean Sea, and the Pacific Ocean.

# Padina boergesenii

***Padina boergesenii***, commonly known as the **leafy rolled-blade alga**, is a species of small brown alga found in the tropical and subtropical western Atlantic Ocean, the Mediterranean Sea, and the Pacific Ocean. This seaweed was named in honour of the Danish botanist and phycologist Frederik Børgesen.

## Description

*Padina boergesenii* is a distinctive small brown alga with rounded fronds growing to a length and diameter of 4 to 6 cm (1.6 to 2.4 in). Fronds are thin, leafy, and flat, with narrow or wide lobes, and grow on short stems from a fibrous, bulbous holdfast. They are moderately calcified on the underside and are usually pale brown or tan. The fronds are either two or three cells thick, but the bases are usually three cells thick. The surface of the fronds bear many short hairs, giving them a matted appearance.

## Distribution

*P. boergesenii* has a wide but scattered presence in shallow water in tropical, subtropical, and warm temperate oceans. In Australia, it is known only from Lord Howe Island. Other locations where this alga occurs include Mauritius, India, and Brazil. The type locality is the United States Virgin Islands, and the maximum depth at which it grows is 1 m (3 ft).

## Ecology

This seaweed reproduces by spore-producing asexual reproduction. The fronds produce tetraspores in concentric bands a millimetre (0.04 in) or so wide, alternately on the upper and lower surfaces of the fronds, closely situated between bands of hairs. The sporangia within the sori mature at differing rates, so that the mature sorus contains spores at very different stages of development.

The species has been investigated for use as a bioindicator of heavy metal contamination; it concentrated iron and manganese by several orders of magnitude and was also successful in detecting other metals such as cadmium and zinc at trace concentrations.
