Landric or Landeric (French: Landry; died 613) was the mayor of the palace of Neustria. According to the Vita Aldegundis, he and his probable brother Gundoland were uncles of Saint Aldegunda. The chief sources for his reign are the Chronicle of Fredegar and the Liber Historiae Francorum.

Landric was a supporter of Fredegund in her conflict with Brunhilda. He fought for her at Brinnacum, an unknown location, against Childebert II soon after the latter’s succession to Burgundy in 592.

In 604, he is recorded as maior domus in Neustria for the first time. In that year, he and Merovech, son of Clotaire II, were sent by Clotaire to attack Berthoald, the Burgundian mayor. They were defeated and Merovech captured. Landric was succeeded as mayor by Gundoland.

The 2004 United States Open Golf Championship was the 104th U.S. Open, played from June 17 to June 20, 2004 at Shinnecock Hills Golf Club. The U.S. Open returned to Shinnecock Hills for the first time since 1995. Retief Goosen won his second U.S. Open Championship and second major championship his first win came in 2001 U.S. Open at Southern Hills Country Club. Goosen’s birdie on the 16th combined with Phil Mickelson’s double bogey on 17th gave Goosen a two shot win. The event took place in Shinnecock Hills, New York. The purse was $6.25 million and Goosen earned $1.125 million.

History of U.S. Open at Shinnecock Hills

The 2004 U.S. Open Golf Championship was the fourth U.S. Open at Shinnecock Hills. The former champions were James Foulis (1896), Raymond Floyd (1986) and Corey Pavin (1995). The second U.S. Open Championship was held at Shinnecock in 1896, but the course saw a 90 year drought before it hosted the tournament again. The 1986 U.S. Open, held on a completely revamped course, was a huge success as everyone recognized the quality of the course and how appropriate—and unique—it was as an Open setting. The course was a the perfect illustration of beauty and pure difficulty. Raymond Floyd found himself one back entering into the final round and on day where an under-par round was nearly impossible Floyd shot a final round 67 to win. The conditions were almost the same in 1995 with no one scoring under par. The conditions were especially challenging on Sunday with only three golfers carding under-par rounds, most importantly Corey Pavin, who played the final 10 holes three-under-par on a way to a 68 for the win. Pavin hit a memorable 4-wood to the 18th green to within 5 feet.

Third round (Saturday)

Former champion Retief Goosen battled his way into a two-shot lead in the U.S. Open third round on Saturday as Shinnecock Hills presented its stiffest test of the week. He held his nerve in challenging conditions to card a one-under-par 69 for a five-under total of 205. He was one of only three players to return sub-par rounds. Second round leader Phil Mickelson bogeyed the last two holes for a share of second place with two time Open champion Ernie Els. Fred Funk and Shigeki Maruyama both had crazy days, finishing poorly for a tie for fourth. Jeff Maggert after a poor round of 74 was tied with Tim Clark in sixth place. Tim Clark had a low round of 66, the best of the day. Tiger Woods shot a 73 and Vijay Singh shot a 77.

Fourth round (Sunday)

South Africa’s Retief Goosen held his nerve to clinch the U.S. Open for a second time, edging out Phil Mickelson by two shots with a closing one-over-par 71 on Sunday to finish at four-under 276. Conditions were brutal on the final day when the average final-round score was 78.7 and not a single golfer finished their round under par. Mickelson, urged on by raucous New York galleries on a windswept and sunny afternoon, completed a matching 71 for his third runner-up spot in the last six U.S. Opens. Goosen led by two going into the final day but was overhauled by Mickelson over the closing stretch, the left-handed American moving one stroke clear with back-to-back birdies on 15 and 16. But Mickelson, bidding to become the sixth player to win the first two majors of the year, immediately fell back, running up a double-bogey at the par-three 17th after three-putting from five feet. Goosen, playing in the group behind, restored his two-shot advantage with a 12-foot birdie putt on 16 and parred the final two holes to seal the title.

American Jeff Maggert finished third at one-over 281 after carding a 72, while 2003 Mike Weir (74) of Canada and Japan’s Shigeki Maruyama (76) were a further three shots back in a tie for fourth. However world number two Ernie Els, joint second overnight with Mickelson, produced four double-bogeys on his way to an 80, his worst score in a U.S. Open, and a tie for ninth at seven over. World number one Tiger Woods, who began nine shots off the lead, battled to a six-over 76 and a share of 17th. A mix of five bogeys, a double-bogey and a birdie at the last left him at 10-over 290 as he narrowly avoided returning his worst round at a U.S. Open. His career high was a 77 in the third round at Oakland Hills playing as an amateur in 1996. Australia’s Robert Allenby was the only player to return a level-par 70 on Sunday, three birdies and three bogeys lifting him into a tie for seventh with American Steve Flesch at six-over 286. Fred Funk (77) of the U.S. was alone in sixth on 285.

SGM Lifewords (formerly Scripture Gift Mission) is a Christian mission based in London, but with offices worldwide. It exists to promote the positive influence of the Bible on everyday life. This has been done traditionally through literature distribution, but more recently includes websites, film, educational programmes and live events. SGM Lifewords does not carry out mission initiatives directly, but resources other mission organisations, churches, or individuals. All SGM Lifewords’ work is funded by donations, and the agency currently operates in over 25 countries.

History

Scripture Gift Mission (SGM) was founded in 1888 by a printer named William Walters, who believed the Bible should be accessible to all. His two main innovations were to make the Bible available free of charge, and to dispatch a painter to Israel to produce illustrations. Both of these were controversial at the time, as it was felt that they devalued the Scriptures. SGM produced Bible materials for troops in the Boer War in 1899, and the supply of military items was to become an important part of the mission’s work, particularly during the two World Wars. In 1945, the society distributed hundreds of thousands of New Testaments according to the text of the Miniature Bible by Franz Eugen Schlachter to German POWs in English prisons. In the post-war years, SGM continued to expand, starting offices in Australia, South Africa, Poland and India, among others. Translation work was an important feature of the mission, and SGM published its 1000th language in 2002, according to their Interact magazine. Following changes in the nature of their work, and a desire to move into new fields, SGM rebranded in 2005 and became SGM Lifewords.

Current work

SGM Lifewords produce literature in many languages, available from their offices worldwide. The range includes pastoral and counselling titles, ranges for Christmas and Easter, and more general evangelistic materials. Among SGM Lifewords’ broader portfolio is Pavement Project, a counselling programme for street children, and Choose Life, a values education programme for Kenyan schools.

Saitopolemos

Jump to: navigation, search

Saitopolemos is a customary celebration that take place in the Greek city of Kalamata during Easter. According to legend, its roots can be traced back to the Greek War of Independence in the 1820s, and especially to a battle the Greeks fought against the army of the Egyptian Sultan Ibrahim Pasha. However, this explanation is disputed. The 19th century Greek Romantic tradition used to place the nativity of the majority of Greek customs in the period of Turkish occupation (1453-1821). The biggest argument against the traditional view is the fact that the celebration takes place during Easter week, whereas most historians agree that the events the traditional songs refer to did not occur during that time of year. Easter celebration is often connected with fires so the celebration’s roots can be traced back to the first Christian societies.

The celebration takes place in Kalamata Metropolitan Stadium where the participants are divided into 10 to 15 teams. Each team consists of 15 to 30 people, mainly young boys. The preparation for the event begins weeks before Easter festivities with young people preparing their saites for the event. A saita is a circular object filled with flammable material. When the celebration begins the players light up their saites and the stadium glows with flame. The custom is controversial because it is very dangerous. Greek media have been highly critical of it, and there have been calls for its termination. But the locals insist that the custom is a tradition they inherited from their ancestors and the event will go on the same way, despite disagreements. Kalamata’s mayor and upper priest have been supportive of the event.

“The Ablest Man in the World” is a short story by Edward Page Mitchell. It was written in 1879.

Plot summary

Dr. Fisher is spending his July holiday in Baden. While he is there, Baron Savitch, a rising Russian politician, is said to be ill by one of the hotel staff. Fisher is led into the baron’s room where he finds the baron ill and shaking. Fisher notices that the baron’s head is somewhat peculiar. The baron’s head has a black silk skullcap which Fisher removes and finds the top of the baron’s head to be a silver dome. The baron tells him to unscrew it but before he can, Dr. Rapperschwyll, the baron’s doctor, comes in and tells Fisher to get out.

There is a lot of controversy surrounding Savitch, mostly concerning his humble beginnings to his rise in the Tsar’s court after graduating from the University of Dorpat. Wanting to know more, Fisher confronts Rapperschwyll at an old observation tower when the ladder falls and they find themselves trapped up there for hours. Rapperschwyll, after swearing Fisher to secrecy, tells him the story of Baron Savitch.

Baron Savitch grew up in a mental asylum and was mute and retarded. Rapperschwyll found him there one day and with his skill in medicine and watch making he made a clockwork brain for Savitch similar to Charles Babbage’s difference engine. With this mechanical brain, Baron Savitch cannot make a mistake and with time will rise to become the next Napoleon.

Later in Paris, Fisher finds Baron Savitch on a diplomatic mission. He learns Savitch will soon marry and is disgusted by the idea of a women being married to a machine. He finds that Rapperschwyll has returned to his native Switzerland, visiting his dying mother. With this knowledge, Fisher waits for the baron to feel ill again. Once that has happened Fisher comes to his aid as a doctor. With the baron’s guard down, Fisher takes his brain, runs off with it and later throws it into the Atlantic ocean on his return trip to America.

The Hills Face Zone is a large planning zone in Adelaide, South Australia. It restricts development in the Adelaide Foothills and Mount Lofty Ranges and extends from Gawler in the north to Sellicks Beach in the South. First suggested by the Liberal Playford Government in 1962, legislation was enacted by the Labor government that followed. Although its boundaries have been adjusted over the years (to allow for further development) it has remained largely intact.

Some of the characteristics of the original zoning restrictions were:

• Minimum property size of 10 acres (48,400 sq yards, 4 hectares, 40,000 sq metres)
• Maximum of one dwelling per property
• Any buildings to be sympathetic in style and colour with the local environment

The X Creatures was a television documentary series made by the BBC in 1998, which was broadcast in 1999 on BBC 1. It was presented by Chris Packham, and examined the possibility of the existence of cryptozoological creatures.

Its name was a pun on the popular fictional television show, The X-Files. Each episode (there were six in all, each lasting 30 minutes) involved Chris Packham travelling to a certain place on Earth where the creature supposedly exists, and examining eye witness accounts, as opposed to searching for the creature. No VHS or DVD releases were ever made.

Parodies of The X-Files

The show parodied the popular television science fiction program The X-Files, which was particularly popular at the time. The name The X Creatures is an obvious pun on The X-Files, as was the title sequence. Chris Packham also has a facial resemblance to The X-Files star David Duchovny.
