Arnold Bouma ( Groningen, September 5 , 1932 - December 16, 2011 ) is a Dutch geologist known for the Bouma sequence , a sequence used to characterize turbidites. [1]

Biography Arnold Bouma went to HBS in Groningen from 1944 to 1951. In 1956 he received his Bachelor of Science degree in geology from the University of Groningen. He obtained his MSc from Utrecht University in 1959. in geology, sedimentology and paleontology and a PhD in sedimentary geology in 1961. In 1966 he and his family emigrated to Texas, United States , where he was appointed professor of oceanography. [2]

Bouma is most famously and unintentionally the namesake of the Bouma sequence, an idealized sequence of sedimentary facies , which can be recognized in a turbidite. Bouma-A to Bouma-E each represent a different part of this form of mass transport.

During his life, Arnold Bouma wrote many publications and became the undisputed expert in the field of these deep - sea sediments.

Muriel Howorth

 * Muriel Howorth
 * ??? everybodywiki com ??? Muriel_Howorth Muriel Howorth at EverybodyWiki ???

Muriel Howorth (born 1887-1971) was the English founder of the Atomic Gardening Society, author, and atomic gardening advocate.

Biography She grew up in Bishop Auckland, County Durham and graduated from the Royal Academy of Music before turning to work in the film industry. It was here that she invented an early picture and film recording device called a Talkiefone, and founded and led the Women's International Film Association.

During the Second World War, Howorth lived in Eastbourne and employed with the Ministry of Information as well as the Royal Aircraft Establishment. She reported in her personal records receiving a letter in 1948 inquiring after her interest in atomic energy. Howorth then proceeded to check out Frederick Soddy's The Interpretation of Radium and found herself a believer in atomic energy. Howorth began to explore and advocate for the use of atomic energy within the home.

One notable moment in Howorth's atomic exploration was in 1959, where she served irradiated North Carolina peanuts to multiple members of the scientific community. However, they were unimpressed with the unusually large peanuts. Howorth viewed these mutated nuts as an achievement towards feeding the undernourished with atomic energy. Howorth then planted the remaining peanuts in her garden, where they grew quicker and larger than regular standards. The attention gained by the nuts motivated Muriel to self-publish her book Atomic Gardening and founded the Atomic Gardening Society to advocate for her cause of atomic power in the home, one of the most notable members being Albert Einstein. Despite the massive spike in interest in atomic gardening, enthusiasm dwindled as the mutations were difficult to produce and generally undesirable. While Howorth's outlook on atomic gardening was unique, the idea of atomic gardening was not a new idea to the scientific community. While the possibilities of atomic gardening were explored by multiple different organizations, it was generally accepted to have little use. This, along with Howorth's dwindling health led to a decline of interest in atomic gardening and the Atomic Gardening Society remained generally inactive.

Howorth also spent time as a science fiction writer, exploring the generally speculative, and therefore fictional, possibilities of atomic power. One of her more notable novels being Atom and Eve in 1955, which was aimed towards women and encouraged them to venture into the world of atomic power. Howorth's other works varied within the same theme of futuristic infrastructure and scientific advancement and their uses in the home.

Across all fields of work, Howorth consistently encouraged women to make a space for themselves within male dominated fields. While her work might not have made a large impact scientifically, her related female activism did.

New Draft - Pierre-Alexandre Vignon
Pierre-Alexandre Vignon, (1763 - 1828) was a French neoclassical architect.

Source :fr: * fr: Pierre-Alexandre Vignon,
 * Pierre-Alexandre Vignon is a French neoclassical architect born in 1763 and died in 1828.

===Biography
 * Pierre-Alexandre Vignon, born in Paris onOctober 5, 1763is the son of Pierre Vignon (Lagny, 1712 - Paris, 1787), prosecutor at the Parliament of Paris and Catherine Compagnon (ad. 1742 - Paris, 1798) 3 . In the years 1785-1788, he studied at the Academy of Architecture with Julien-David Leroy . He is also a student of Claude Nicolas Ledoux, by whom he is certainly very appreciated. Indeed, theNovember 12, 1806, a week before his death, Ledoux made him his executor and bequeathed him half of his property 4.

In 1790 he was appointed to the General Inspectorate of Public Workshops and architect of the Arsenal.


 * THESeptember 14, 1792, the National Legislative Assembly decides that the future National Convention, which can no longer hold a meeting in the Salle du Manège, will sit at the Château des Tuileries in the Salle des Machines, the former hall of the Théâtre-Français . She entrusted Pierre-Alexandre Vignon with the design and responsibility for the developments essential to this new function 5 . But, shortly after, Vignon had to give up his place to Jacques-Pierre Gisors, supposedly for a question of greater simplicity of layout and lower cost of the latter's project, according to the report of two architects commissioned by the Committee of room inspectors to compare projects 6 . Vignon reacted vigorously to this sidelining at the instigation of Minister Roland, and proclaimed his indignation in a petition addressed to the Assembly 7 . He demands compensation, which he partially obtains.October 25, 17928.

InOctober 1793, still single, he lives at Place du Museum 9, probably in official accommodation at the Louvre.


 * In year II, during 1794, P.-A. Vignon was appointed general inspector of public buildings and had authority over the work of the Louvre, the Tuileries, the Invalides and all the monuments of Paris. He is, in this context, responsible for installing weapons workshops in the former convents of the Capuchins and Feuillants, as well as the National Printing Office at the Hôtel de Toulouse, known as Hôtel de Penthièvre, former Hôtel de la Vrillière in Nivôse year III 10 . His place as inspector general being coveted by the friend of an eminent politician, he withdrew from this function and devoted himself to studies and a few projects until the consultation concerning the Madeleine 11 building.

Amélie Vignon (1800-1870), his eldest daughter, married Alexandre-Louis Badenier (1793-1889), an architect who became a student of her father-in-law. In 1833 Badenier drew and exhibited a view of the Madeleine to note the changes made to this monument since its design by Vignon, who died 5 years earlier 12. In 1844 he also designed a project to bring together the Louvre and the Tuileries 13.

===Works
 * For Empress Joséphine, in 1805 he built the large greenhouse at Malmaison , in collaboration with Jean-Thomas Thibault . “With a length of 50 meters it is backed by a building housing lounges which also serve as a gallery for the collections of Greek vases and from where you can admire the plants. Heated by large coal stoves, its exceptional dimensions make it possible to accommodate shrubs up to 5 meters high under a very large surface of glass 14 . »

In 1806, he was responsible for drawing up plans for a vast building which was to take the place envisaged for a new Madeleine church and which was to house the Bank of France , the Commercial Court and the Paris Stock Exchange.

===Church of the Madeleine in Paris
 * This project was abandoned at the end of 1806 and it was decided to build instead, in the same place, a temple to the glory of the soldiers of the Grande Armée (First Empire).


 * Vignon took part in the architectural competition organized on this occasion and proposed a building of Greco-Roman inspiration, peripterous, finally chosenMay 30, 1807by Napoleon I on the battlefield of Tilsitt, against the advice of the Imperial Academy which had retained the project of Mr. de Beaumont 15 . The demolitions and the first implementations begin quite quickly. But the end of the Empire, the decision of Louis XVIII to make the building an expiatory church, the Restoration and the unrest of 1830 slowed down and sometimes stopped the work 16 . After Vignon's death in 1828 , Jean-Jacques-Marie Huvé , initially works manager, who became chief inspector of the Madeleine works in 1817, took over management of the site which was not completed until 1842 , the date on which The Church of Madeleine 17 is consecrated . The Madeleine church is classified as a Historic Monument onMay 20, 191518.

 * South Bank Lion ...
 * A second, similar Coade stone lion was removed from the Lion Brewery when it was demolished. It stood on an arched gateway leading to a second brewery site on the south side of Belvedere Road, on the corner of Sutton Walk. It was presented to the Rugby Football Union in 1971, its centenary season, by the Greater London Council and unveiled in 1972.  It is now located above the central pillar of the Rowland Hill Memorial Gate (Gate 3) to the west of Twickenham Stadium.  It was covered in gold leaf when England hosted the 1991 Rugby World Cup.

The(main) lion was originally mounted on the parapet of James Goding's Lion Brewery on the Lambeth bank of the River Thames; Hungerford Bridge spanned the Thames nearby from 1845. The Lion Brewery closed in 1924 and the building was demolished in 1949, to make way for construction of the Royal Festival Hall as part of the Festival of Britain. The lion was removed, revealing the initials of the sculptor William Frederick Woodington and the date, 24 May 1837, under one of its paws. It was painted red as the symbol of British Rail, and mounted on high plinth beside the entrance to the Festival of Britain near Waterloo station.

 * An inscription on a bronze plaque gives the history of this magnificent gilded lion, explaining that it was made of Coade stone, like the bigger one of Woodington's that stands on Westminster Bridge, and stood in front of the Lion Brewery in Lambeth from 1837 until the site was cleared for the Royal Festival Hall in 1948. Like the Westminster Bridge version, it was preserved "at the express wish of King George IV." [Commentary continues below.]

 * In April 1972, this lion was presented to the Rugby Football Union on behalf of the Greater London Council. The presentation marked the centenary of the Union, which was actually established in 1871, after the graduates of Rugby and other public schools had refused to be bound by the rules drawn up by the Football Association in 1863, about some of the key points of the game as they played it — about not handling the ball, for instance.


 * The lion itself is more aggressive-looking than the Westminster Bridge one, so makes a good mascot for a sport that was often thought too violent by the late Victorians. Its gilding and height make it particularly impressive, though the tall pier itself is more recent. The latter is dedicated to the memory of Sir George Rowland Hill, who became President of the Union in 1904 and was re-elected twice. The ensemble was relocated to this spot in 1994, after the stadium's redevelopment.

 * There were originally three Coade Stone lion statues created for Lion Brewery by W.F. Woodington, a notable sculptor of the era. The most famous of these lions was the one that sat atop the brewery parapet. Just before the building was demolished, King George VI ordered that it be preserved, along with its surviving sibling lion which stood over one of the brewery gates. Both remain in London until this day. The one from the roof of the brewery is now known as the South Bank Lion, and can be found opposite the Houses of Parliament at the south end of Westminster Bridge. The other coade stone lion is now located at the west-gate entrance of Twickenham Stadium, the home of rugby. It was painted with gold leaf prior to the 1991 Rugby World Cup held in England.

Look at me, or at least what’s left Look at me, before I hate myself What to tell you, that another’s lips won’t tell you It’s not much but all that I have I drop it there, that’s it

Don’t go, I’m begging you stay a long time It may not save me, no But to do without you I don’t know how Love me as we love a friend who goes away forever I want us to love me because I don’t know how to like my outlines

Here, there, here, here I am, Here I am even if exposed it is finished Here I am in the noise and in the fury too Look at me, finally, and my eyes and my hands All that I have is here, it’s my mouth, it’s my cry Here I am, here I am, here I am Here we are, here we are, here we are

The greatest female tennis player Luxembourg has produced, Weivers was the 1941 and 1942 French champion during the war years of World World II, when international play was limited.

Weivers visited the Riviera annually from 1934, gaining in confidence every year. Her all court game suddenly came together in 1939 and her results bloomed. Alice upset world top tenner Simone Mathieu to win in Monte Carlo. By the end of the Riviera season she had bagged 5 singles titles. Even more remarkable was her doubles partnership with Cosette St Omer Roy. Together the pair won 14 titles, dominating the circuit. She also was part of the longest women's singles in memory on Cote d'Azur, being on the losing end of a 56 game marathon to Gracyn Wheeler in the semis at the Gallia Club. Wheeler won 11-13 11-9 7-5. Weiwers had 3 match points in the second set.

In 1941 she was living on the French Riviera. That year she won the triple crown at the French Championships (called the Tornoi de France). In 1942 Alice repeated her win in singles and doubles.

1943 saw her reign end, as she was beaten 6-1 7-5in the final by Simone Lafargue. Alice nonetheles won the mixed-bagging 6 Tornoi de France titles out of 9 possible trophies from 1941 to 1943.

Alice proved her quality both before and after the war in reaching the last 8 of the French in 1939 again in 1946. She lost to Simone Mathieu 6-3 6-3 in 39 and Margaret Osborne 6-3 6-2 in 1946. Both Mathieu and Osborne went on to win at Roland Garros in those years.

Weivers entered Wimbledon in 1939, 1947 and 1948. Her singles record there was 5-3.

Titles

Won at least 25 titles-the first in 1936 at Cannes and the last at Monté Carlo in 1946

 * The O.T.A.V. voiturette, or Turkheimer as it was known in its early years, was powered by an air-cooled, single-cylinder engine of 5.5hp. There were two cooling fans, one in the normal position ahead of the engine, and another, crankshaft driven, in a housing in the crankcase. Epicyclic gears provided 2 forward speeds, driving through 2 belts. The O.T.A.V. single was current until 1908, but there was also a 10hp twin with 3 forward speeds, and in 1907 a full sized 4-cylinder, 2.8 litre machine that may have also counted as a Junior, for in the year that the firm became associated with the Fabbrica Junior Torinese Automobili (Junior F.J.T.A., de: Fabbrica Junior Torinese Automobili), who were known for commercial vehicles.

 * The Società Anonima Officine Turkheimer per Automobill e Velocipedi was an Italian manufacturer of automobiles.


 * ==Company history
 * Max Turkheimer, who had been manufacturing bicycles since 1888, founded the company for the production of automobiles in Milan in 1905. The brand names were Turkheimer and OTAV for the small model, and just OTAV for the large model. In 1907 he worked with Junior F.J.T.A.. Production ended in 1908. The company also distributed Turgan Foy vehicles (de: Turgan, Foy et Cie).


 * ==Vehicles
 * The first model was a compact car, offered under both brands, and sold well. The air- cooled single-cylinder engine had an output of 4 hp at the beginning of the construction period and 5.5 hp at the end. The design-related top speed was given as 35 km/h. Power was transmitted to the rear axle by belts.


 * The 18/24 HP was added as early as 1906. The four-cylinder engine, which consisted of two cylinder blocks, had a displacement of 2800 cm³, dual ignition, a three-speed gearbox and shaft drive.


 * In 2019, a preserved vehicle from 1905 was offered for sale. Classic Car.com :-

 * He began producing motorcycles in 1902 and is perhaps best known for the Moto Astra. The company was a main agent for Ariel Motorcycles, with whom he had a close relationship - he was a shareholder in Charles Sangster's company, and that relationship continued when Jack Sangster took over from his father.

They have a 5 H.P. air-cooled engine, the cylinder being jacketed, and the air being forced through by a powerful fan. The engine drives by chain to a countershaft placed across the car and carrying a two-speed epicyclic gear. From the countershaft the drive to the road wheels is by " V " belts. The car behaved distinctly well in the Auto-Cycle Club run to York and back some months ago. We understand that the car is selling well, and it is certainly an interesting type of vehicle.

Andachtsjodler, Devotional yodel, (also: Sterzinger Andachtsjodler, Mettenjodler , Rauhnachtjodler , Jodlerandacht (yodel prayer) ) is an untexted spiritual yodelling song from South Tyrol that has its origins in the liturgical environment of Christmas mass. Today it is used in both liturgical and secular contexts, especially in Bavarian-Austrian folk music.

===History

The folklorist Friedrich Haider opined that the yodel in its present form came into being at the end of the 18th or beginning of the 19th century. [1]

Records state that the song was still sung in Sterzing (South Tyrol) in 1830 at Christmas mass as an appendix to a shepherd's song (Christmas carol) [2].

According to de: Konrad Fischnaler, it was still heard there in 1850 during the conversion from the Holy Ghost hole (de: Heiliggeistloch). [1]

Nevertheless, it appeared at the onset of Cecilianism but soon became largely forgotten. It was rediscovered by the Berlin high school teacher de: Max Pohl (1869-1928) within the Wandervogel movement. Annette Thoma used the yodel in her de: Deutschen Bauernmesse (German Farmers' Fair) (1933). The 'Salzburg Advent Singing' (de: Salzburger Adventsingen) also contributed to the yodel's popularity, as it is sung by both the participants and the audience.[3]

===Score

The notation follows the two-part version by folksong researcher Karl Liebleitner (1858–1942) from 1921, which corresponds to the Sterzing variant. [2] According to Friedrich Haider, there are also other variants from the de: Pflerschtal (from de: Gossensaß westwards) and the Pfitscher Tal (from Sterzing eastwards). [1]

===Performance

In more recent times, the devotional yodel is usually performed in three voices, often with instrumental accompaniment. [4]

In some releases, the traditional yodeling lyrics are followed by a newly added four-stanza poem of unknown author. [5]

It is unclear whether this additional text should be sung to the yodel melody or whether it has its own melody. In the Liederkiste, a free online songbook, it is referred to as "Alternative Text". [6]

Male choirs sometimes sing it in four parts to the yodel melody. [7]

A small, feisty woman from Mullingar looms large in the mythology of Lord's. Annie Gertrude Doyle, always known as Nancy, was the cook who served the players' dining room for more than 35 years up to her retirement in 1996.

England cricket captain, Mike Brearley, had approached Nancy again, to suggest that a lunch of: soup, starter, roast lamb with roast potatoes, chips and vegetables, dessert (with a choice of custard, cream or ice cream) and cheeseboard was not ideal refuelling for an afternoon of professional sport.

"Tell you what, Michael," she spat, drawing herself up and stabbing her forefinger into his chest, like a woodpecker at a tree, "I won't tell you how to fecking bat if you don't tell me how to fecking cook. OK?"

Draft
Century, Century Engineering & Motor Co, was a British manufacturer of motorised tricyles and automobiles from 1899 until 1907.

==History In 1885 Ralph Jackson founded the Ralpho bicycle business in Altrincham in Cheshire, but by 1899 there were roughly 160 cycle makers within a 2 mile radius of Manchester city centre. In 1899 he founded 'Century Engineering & Motor Co Limited' to manufacture automobiles. The first vehicle, a powered tricyle tandem, achieved such success locally and in the Aberdeen-London trial (£12,000 orders) that Jackson and his new partner Sidney Begbie moved the business and manufacturing to Willesden, London, and opened holborn showrooom.

1899 he began manufacturing motor tricycles and automobiles in Willesden from 1899, closely based on components from the French Aster company.

==History Ralph Jackson manufactured Ralpho bicycles at Altrincham in Cheshire from 1885.
 * 23 April–12 May – the Automobile Club of Great Britain (RAC) staged a Thousand Mile Trial, a reliability motor rally over a circular route from London to Edinburgh and return.(The original 1000 Mile Trial was organised by the Royal Automobile Club in 1900. It started in London and followed a route through Bristol, Birmingham, Manchester, Derby, Kendal, Carlisle, Edinburgh, Newcastle, Leeds, Sheffield, Nottingham and back to London. There were 83 entries of which 65 actually started.)

In 1901 Jackson left the company, returned to Altrincham and founded Eagle Engineering de: Eagle Engineering, building and selling the identical motor tandem until 1907.

1902-05 Produced motorcycles

This firm was best known for its Tandem model. This was a fairly typical and cumbersome machine of forecar design.

1904 The company used a 5hp Aster engine, driving a countershaft by chain. The rear axle was driven by one of two chains, to give high and low speeds. A lever on the right acted as steering, by moving it to and fro. There were also some controls that the passenger could reach. Also listed was a tradesman's carrier model.

1905 A steering wheel appeared as the standard fitting for a car, but the make soon vanished as the cyclecar took over. Also used Minerva and MMC engines

Century tricycle from 1899

Century Engineering was a British manufacturer of automobiles. [1] [2]

Ralph Jackson began producing bicycles at Altrincham in Cheshire in 1885. In 1899 he founded Century Engineering & Motor Co Limited to manufacture automobiles. In 1901 Jackson left the company and founded Eagle Engineering de: Eagle Engineering. Under the direction of Sydney Begbie, the company moved to Willesden near London, and in 1904 it was renamed Century Engineering Co Limited. From 1905 the brand name was New Century. Production ended in 1907.
 * Company

The first model was the Century Tandem, a tricycle with the single wheel at the rear. It was initially equipped with a single-cylinder engine with an output of 2.25 hp. In 1901 there were three different single-cylinder built - in engines to choose from: De Dion-Bouton with 3.5 hp, Aster and Motor Manufacturing Company with 5 hp each. From 1905 a two- cylinder engine was installed. In 1903, conventional four-wheeled cars appeared. The 8 HP and 10 HP models were fitted with Aster twin cylinder engines, and the 22 HP modelwith a four-cylinder engine from Mutel. In 1906 the four-cylinder Princess model with 16 hp was added.
 * Vehicles

Three vehicles from this brand occasionally take part in the London to Brighton Veteran Car Run.

Manchester’s Suburban Cycle Makers July 22, 2016, by Joshua Butt

It has become increasingly apparent that researching the early motor industry also involves an exploration of the cycle industry and its customers. A few blogposts ago I did a brief analysis of the Manchester and Salford cycle industry. However, this blog looks outwards at Manchester’s suburban cycle makers, exploring the links between them and the early motor industry. The suburban areas are the surrounding towns that make up what is now Greater Manchester, such as Stockport, Altrincham and Eccles.

Manchester’s suburban trade directories show some interesting trends in cycle making in the suburbs. Firstly, as can probably be expected, in more residential areas around Manchester there were fewer cycle makers. In 1899 there were roughly 160 cycle makers (some of these agencies) within a 2 mile radius of the city centre. Outside of this radius there were only 25 cycle makers.

Significantly amongst these 25, 17 were situated in towns south of Manchester, in the richer suburbs. Affluent middle-class towns such as Altrincham had as many as 4 cycle makers, while Wilmslow, Sale and Heaton Moor had two each; whereas working-class towns such as Stockport had none. This probably shouldn’t come as a surprise. Cycling in Victorian Britain was a rich persons past-time, bicycles being outside the price range of the working-class, who would have had to spend several months worth of wages to be able to afford one. Towns such as Altrincham, Sale and Wilmslow were also situated next to the Cheshire countryside, very popular with cyclists, both then and now.

====Ralph Jackson A few of these suburban cycle makers also turned to motor manufacture. Was this an attempt to cater for the changing hobbies of their local punters who were switching from cycling to motoring? James Bowen cycle maker of Heaton Moor was one. The other was Ralph Jackson, the maker of “Ralpho” Cycles in Altrincham, one of the earliest of Manchester’s cycle makers to experiment with motor vehicle production. Prehaps Jackson was looking to get ahead of this 3 local rivals. Jackson formed Century Engineering and Motor Company in 1899, producing the first finished vehicle, the Century Tandem by November 1899 where it appeared for the first time at the Stanley Cycle Show.

Century Tandem, 1900, this model took part in the 1,000 mile trial. Century Tandem, 1900, this model took part in the 1,000 mile trial. The tandem had some interesting features, and clearly showed Jackson’s 15 years experience in the cycle industry. Notice in the image the cycle tubing, the driver’s sprung saddle, the cycle wheels and the cycle gearing. Novel though, was the well-sprung and rather conformable looking front passenger seat, the petrol tank housed under the passengers head! Steering was done by a lever, which was presumably moved backwards and forwards to turn either left or right. Braking was especially crude on the Century Tandem; the rear mudguard was pushed by the driver’s heel, onto the tyre to bring the vehicle to a stop. The engine and carburettor were of French make and the chain transmission was made by world renowned, Manchester chain manufacturer Hans Renold, who were quick to produce specialised motor vehicle chains. Buying in specialist parts was common during this early period of experimental construction.

The Century Tandem had a significant lifetime. One was entered in the 1,000 mile trial of 1900, with only a few other British manufacturers. It completed the course and surely led to a number of orders. Some of the subsequent customers would write to The Autocar and tell of their experiences. One customer, Leopold Canning (later the 4th Baron of Garvagh), liked the Century so much that he ordered three of them, calling two the “Scarlet” and “Chocolate” Century. Canning describes a tour he took from the works in Altrincham, through Wilmslow and Alderley Edge and up the “Wizard” Hill, before touring up to the Cat and Fiddle outside Macclesfield, stopping for a drink and “free-wheeling” home.

Leopold Canning getting ready for a long distance run from Aberdeen to London on one of his Centurys. Leopold Canning getting ready for a long distance run from Aberdeen to London on one of his Centurys in 1901. Notice the luggage and spare tyres strapped to the passenger seat. It is likely that the number of orders after the 1,000 mile trial, reported as £12,000 worth, led Jackson and his partner Sydney Begbie (an ex-cycle works manager) to move production down to Willesden Junction, London, much nearer to the company’s newly opened show rooms in Holborne Viaduct, a road on which many motor traders had their offices. At some point during 1900-1901 Ralph Jackson fell out with his partner, he left the business and returning to his home town of Altrincham to set up the Eagle Motor and Engineering Company and made a similar tandem which he continued to sell, from Altrincham for several years. One wonders why the firm moved to London. Did they want to be nearer the large South Eastern customer base? Was being stationed near a major railway line a significant economic advantage? Had they outgrown Altrincham?

The "Canal de Craponne" judgement (arrêt) in 1876 was a landmark judgement by the Court of Cassation in French civil law, rejecting the theory of foresight. It was emblematic of the binding force of the contract.

The judgement was delivered on March 6, 1876 by the Civil Chamber of the Court of Cassation with regard to article 1134 of the French Civil Code. However, the ordinance of February 10, 2016 reforming contract law, the general regime and proof of obligations puts an end to this case law since the new article 1195 of the Civil Code defines the circumstances and modalities of such a revision.


 * Canal de Craponne
 * Court of Cassation (France)

Note: The United Kingdom initially refused to recognise unforeseen circumstances as a cause for exemption from performance of the contract (Paradine v. Jane (1647 Al 26, 82 ER 897). However, a first change in this direction theory was accepted by the English Courts with Taylor v. Caldwell ( Taylor v. Caldwell(1863) 3 B & S 826). This judgement recognised the existence of "implied terms" by which the co-contracting parties agreed to terminate the contract in the event of the occurrence of events making performance particularly difficult for one party. This is the principle of "frustration". However, this practice did not make it possible to restore the contractual balance in all cases. In 1956, the House of Lords posited the theory of "frustration" as an objective rule of contract law: Performance of the contract can only be demanded if the circumstances are the same as when the contract was concluded.

Adam de Craponne

 * Adam de Craponne, Canal de Craponne
 * fr: Adam de Craponne


 * Source: fr: Adam de Craponne
 * Adam de Craponne was born in Salon in 1526 (1527) in a family of Pisan origin (More likely from the town of Craponne (Rhône). The real name of his ancestors is from Gageyron or from Gageron family that we find on the borders of Languedoc and Auvergne at Craponne and Viverols (Puy-de-Dôme). [desired ref.]

After his studies, he went to the court of Henry II of France and became an engineer, officer in charge of fortifications. In 1552, he reinforced and reorganized the defences of Metz, against Charles V, Holy Roman Emperor. In 1554, a decree of the Parliament of Provence (located in Aix-en-Provence), conferred on him the right to divert the waters of the river Durance to Salon-en-Provence, and from there to the sea.

Adam de Craponne built between 1557 and 1558 the canal which bears his name, which made it possible to irrigate the Crau with water from the Durance. Craponne personally financed the work1, but also had to borrow, notably from Nostradamus2.

In 1571, he was hired by the municipality of Les Mées, Alpes-de-Haute-Provence to restore the water intake of an irrigation canal.


 * Il meurt à Nantes le 20 décembre 1576. Selon son petit-neveu, Paul de Grignan, a écrit dans son livre de raison :
 * « En l'année 1576, ledict Adam de Craponne mourut de maladie à Nantes, en Bretagne, employé par le roi Henry troisième à la fortification de ladicte ville où il feust (à ce qu'on croyt) empoisonné par l'envie d'Italiens employés quant lui à ladicte fortification piqués de quoy le roi fist continuer l'œuvre suivant le dessain de Craponne et à la confusion du leur. Il mourut en 24 heures et fust enterré dans l'église Nostre-Dame ».

Selon certaines sources, il aurait été empoisonné par des ingénieurs envieux de ses succès ,

“In the year 1576, 'ledict' Adam de Craponne died of illness in Nantes, Brittany, employed by King Henry III of France to fortify the city, where he was believed to have been poisoned by envious Italian workers, ... He died within 24 hours and was buried in the l'église Notre-Dame”. According to some sources, he was poisoned by engineers envious of his success.
 * He died in Nantes on December 20, 1576. According to his grand-nephew, Seigneur (Lord) Paul de Grignan, (it: De Grignan) who wrote:

 * In 1887, Gaston Tissandier's Histoire des ballons et des aéronautes célèbres (History of famous balloons and aeronauts) described Testu-Brissy's earliest ballooning thus :

Pendant les dernières anne'es du xvme siècle, en outre des admirables applications que des hommes de cœur et de patriotisme avaient su faire des aérostats aux opérations militaires, les ballons continuèrent aussi à contribuer à l'animation des fêtes nationales ou militaires. Trois ans avant la Révolution, I un nouvel aéronaute avait fait son apparition en la personne de Testu-Brissy, qui se donnait le titre de physicien et qui avait annoncé une ascension de longue durée. Le projet du voyageur aérien était de séjourner vingt-quatre heures dans l'atmosphère au moyen d'un ballon à gaz hydrogène, muni d'un système de rames à la façon de celles qu'avait employées Blanchard.
 * Page -289-

During the last years of the eighteenth century, besides the military applications by men of heart and patriotism, balloons continued to contribute to national and military festivals. Three years before the Revolution, Testu-Brissy, a new aeronaut, gave himself the title of physicist and announced plans for a twenty-four hour balloon flight, using a hydrogen balloon with oars similar to Jean-Pierre Blanchard.

La première ascension de Testu-Brissy eut lieu le 18 juin 1786, des jardins du Luxembourg, où il s'éleva à quatre heures cinquante de l'après-midi. Après une première descente dans la plaine de Montmorency, Paéronaute repartit, pour revenir encore près de terre à huit heures du soir, entre Ecouen et Wariville, d'où il s'éleva de nouveau.
 * Page -290-

The first ascent by Testu-Brissy took place on June 18, 1786, at 4.50 pm, from the Jardin du Luxembourg to the plain of Montmorency (approximately 15 km north). He then set off again and landed around 8 pm between Écouen and Wariville (near Litz, Oise circa 45 km north).

Bientôt un rival se présenta à Testu-Brissy en la personne de Garnerin.
 * Page -290-

Soon Testu-Brissy was rivalled by André-Jacques Garnerin.


 * In 1887, Gaston Tissandier's Histoire des ballons et des aéronautes célèbres (History of famous balloons and aeronauts) described Testu-Brissy's equestrian ballooning thus :

Pendant les premiers jours du Consulat, les ascensions fo- raines reprirent quelque faveur auprès du public, et c'est en 1798 que Testu-Brissy exécuta une ascension équestre restée célèbre. L'aéronaute avait construit un aérostat allongé au-dessous duquel était fixé un grand plateau de bois rectangulaire. Il annonça qu'il s'élèverait à cheval sur ce plateau, sans que sa monture fût attachée. Le 26 vendémiaire de l'an VII, (French Republican calendar (Autumn, Vendémiaire (Vintage/grape harvest), 26, October 17th, Year VII =1798) Testu-Brissy s'éleva à Bellevue; mais le succès ne répondit d'abord pas à son attente. L'expérience fut recommencée quelques jours plus tard, et cette fois elle réussit au delà de toutes les espérances. L'aéronaute alla tomber dans les plaines de Nanterre, après avoir affirmé que le cheval qu'il montait avait perdu du sang par les narines et les oreilles, à une hauteur où il ne s'était pas trouvé incommodé.
 * Page -294-

During the first days of the revolutionary Consulate, balloon ascents regained some favour with the public. Thus on 26 Vendémiaire of 'year VII' (in the French Republican calendar (Autumn, 26 Grape harvest, equivalent to October 17th, 1798)) Testu-Brissy performed an equestrian balloon ascent which has remained famous. He had built an elongated balloon to carry a large rectangular wooden platform where he sat astride his horse without it being tethered. Testu-Brissy ascended at Bellevue; but the experiment did not meet his expectations, so he tried again a few days later and succeeded beyond expectations. He landed on the plain of Nanterre and said that the horse had lost blood through its nostrils and ears.

On 18 June 1786 Pierre Tetu- (or Testu-) Brissy, a Frenchman, inaugurated night flying when he flew from Paris to Breteuil. From then onwards ballooning after dark became a favourite sport and, incidentally, led to the popular firework displays from the air which delighted the public of many countries for over a century. TetuBrissy, who had already, like many of the early aeronauts, experimented unsuccessfully with baUoon propulsion, was a born showman. So it is not surprising that he is chiefly remembered for another inauguration—the animal ascent. On 16 October 1798 he went up in a balloon on horseback (30), and so added another questionable sport to those already popular at the time. The horse and rider stood on an oblong platform slung beneath a cylindrical hydrogen balloon, and the whole machine was decked out with tassels and draperies for the occasion. In some of the later animal ascents the horse was suspended by sHngs under its body; which, although safer, was probably more alarming for the unfortunate beast. Tetu-Brissy was followed by the French showman Margat, who went up astride his pet stag 'Coco'; and, much later, by the most notorious 'animal- ascenders'. Monsieur and Madame Poitcvin.

The New Orleans began life as the Belgian Vivinus voiturette built under licence in England. It had a single cylinder, air-cooled, engine of 3.5 hp mounted at the front. Transmission was by belt to fast and loose pulleys on a countershaft, and thence by spur gears to the rear axle. Two forward speeds were provided. This car was first on sale at the beginning of 1900, and before the end of the year it had been supplemented by a two cylinder model of 7hp, and otherwise similar layout. In 1901 a completely new 7hp car appeared, with water-cooled engine, conventional clutch and three speed gearbox, and shaft drive. The small belt-drive car was still available in 1904, together with a 9hp twin, and 12 and 15hp 4-cylinder cars.

In 1905 the company was changed to Orleans, and the cars followed suit, although they were occassionally called New Orleans for some time. A 22hp 4 cylinder car was made in 1906, and the first 6-cylinder model, a 35hp, appeared in 1907. In 1909 they were making a 30/40hp 4 cylinder and a 35/45hp 6-cylinder car, but very few were sold. As the Orleans became larger it lost its individuality, and none of the 4-cylider models was anything like as popular as the little belt-drive voiturette had been.

 * The Atlantic The Christmas the Aliens Didn’t Come By Julie Beck


 * (Source: yestherapyhelps) Messages from outer space. ... In the fifties, an American apocalyptic sect called "The Seekers" (The Seekers) spread the message that the world was going to be destroyed on December 21, 1954 . Supposedly, this information had been transmitted to the members of the sect through Dorothy Martin, alias Marian Keech, a woman who was credited with the ability to write chains of words of alien or supernatural origin. The fact that the members of the fanatical group believed in the authenticity of these messages was one of the reasons why the religious beliefs of the whole community were reinforced, and as it happens classically with the cults of this type, life of each of its members revolved around the needs and objectives of the community.


 * (Source: howtoflyahorse.com/end-notes) Dorothy Martin had a long career: After the events described in the book, Martin moved to the Yucatán Peninsula in Mexico, was involved with “the Brotherhood of the Seven Rays,” (Seven rays) a group that included another purported “UFO contactee,” George Hunt Williamson, and at some point became known as “Sister Thedra.” According to another spiritualist, “Dr. Robert Ghost Wolf,” while she was in Mexico, Martin “had an experience which changed her in an instant when as it is told by her that [sic] Jesus Christ physically appeared to her and spontaneously cured her of cancer. He introduced himself to her by his true, [sic] name, ‘Sananda Kumara,’ (Sanat Kumara) thereby revealing his affiliation with the Venusian founders of the Great Solar Brotherhoods (Great White Brotherhood).

Amédée Bollée fils was the son of Amédée Bollée, who manufactured steam cars between 1873 and 1881. In 1885 Bollée (fils) founded his company in Le Mans and the brand name was Amédée Bollée. Production ended in 1922. AB also licensed two/three other manufacturers to build his car design, these were:

 * De Dietrich from Niederbronn Alsace. (de: De Dietrich (Niederbronn))
 * Leesdorfer Automobilwerke from Austria. (de: Leesdorfer Automobilwerke)

The first vehicle was built in 1885 with the help of his father. It was a stagecoach with a steam engine, commissioned by the Marquis de Roc. In the same year he also made a smaller steam car based on his own designs.
 * ==Vehicles

In 1889 experiments with gasoline engines began.

The first motor car with a petrol engine went into series production as the Type A in 1896. The horizontal gasoline two-cylinder engine with water cooling delivered 6 hp and propelled the rear axle via belts. The engine weighed 150 kg and had a normal speed of 600 rpm. The face-to-face body shape offered space for four people. [1] Amédée Bollée took part in a Type A car in September 1896 in the Paris – Marseille – Paris race (start number 20). [2] [3]

In 1898 a racing car with a streamlined body took 3rd place in the Paris – Amsterdam race. In 1899 a racing car followed with a four-cylinder engine and 6300 cm³ displacement, which made 20 hp. Production vehicles of the year were a two-cylinder model with 10 hp and a four-cylinder model with 12 hp. From 1904, the four-cylinder engine was arranged vertically and the radiator grille was round, as in the Delaunay-Belleville vehicles of the time. The Type E was on offer between 1907 and 1914. The engine had a capacity of 6333 cm³. The price was comparable to that of the Rolls-Royce Silver Ghost. More than 200 copies were made of this model. In 1912 the type F was addedthe offer. The engine had a displacement of 4000 cm³.

After the First World War, only a few type F vehicles were built.

 * Alfred John Herbert Bottoms was born in Kensington, London in June 1918. Immediately after the war, he began speedway competition, racing for Rye House in 1945. For 1946 he signed for Wembley and was a member of the Wembley Lions championship winning team. He did not race much in 1947 and joined the Southampton team as captain for the 1948 season helping them to win promotion. In 1949 he returned to Wembley and quit at the end of 1949.


 * 1950 saw Alf enter the Formula Three circuit racing with his JBS-Norton in a team run by his father and brother, Charlie. J.B.S. standing for James Bottoms and sons. The J.B.S. was developed from the Cowlan Special of Coward and Lang. It was highly competitive and looked set to present a consistent challenge to the Coopers. Alf gave notice at the Goodwood Easter meeting, finishing third against experienced opposition.


 * Brands Hatch, 17 September 1950. ... Pressing on at an amazing speed he won the thirteen-lap event by more than forty-seven seconds over Jönsson. Only three of the twenty four starters finished on the same lap. Stirling Moss, in a lightweight Cooper JAP, was one of the ones to finish a lap down in sixth place. It was Alf's finest race.

 * The most important early race in the 1951 500cc F3 calendar was the Luxembourg GP on the Findel road circuit. Tragically, in practice for the race, 32-year-old Alf Bottoms appeared to have the throttle of his JBS jam open on the approach to a hairpin bend. He crashed into a parked vehicle, and was fatally injured. Next day, however, 'Curly' Dryden won Heat 1 of that Luxembourg GP in his JBS-Norton, while his rival Don Parker - in a JBS-JAP - won Heat 2.

Volcanoes in Iceland

 * Volcanoes in Iceland: Names, Facts, and Features / By icelandorg

Volcanoes are one of the main geographic features of Iceland. It is considered that Iceland is the home to one-third of the lava that ever flowed on Earth. As much as 25% of the Iceland surface is covered with volcanoes. Today, the country has 32 volcanic systems comprising 130 different volcanic mountains.

In terms of activity, some are still active, and others are considered extinct. In contrast, in terms of structure, some are stratovolcanoes (mountainous with cone-shaped peaks), others are covered with glaciers, and there are those with flat tops and steep sides (tuyas).

Öræfajökull is the largest active volcano in iceland and also the home of the highest peak (2119 meters). However, because of their frequent activity, the most well-known volcanoes are Hekla, with 18 eruptions in recent history, and Katla, with 20 eruptions since the settlement of Iceland.

Here is a list of the volcanoes in Iceland:

- Askja (1516 meters), - Bárðarbunga (2005 meters), - Brennisteinsfjöll (626 meters), - Eldfell (279 meters), - Eldgjá (800 meters), - Esjufjöll (1760 meters), - Eyjafjallajökull (1666 meters), - Fagradalsfjall (385 meters), - Fremrinámur (939 meters), - Grensdalur (497 meters), - Grímsnes (214 meters), - Grímsvötn (1725 meters), - Hekla (1491 meters), - Helgafell (73 meters), - Hengill (803 meters), - Herðubreið (1682 meters) - Hofsjökull (1782 meters) - Holuhraun (778 meters), - Hrómundartindur (561 meters), - Hveravellir (1360 meters), - Hverfjall (420 meters), - Jólnir (64 meters), - Katla (1512 meters), - Kerlingarfjöll (1488 meters), - Kolbeinsey Ridge (8 meters), - Kollóttadyngja (1177 meters), - Krafla (650 meters), - Krakatindur (300 meters), - Krýsuvík (379 meters), - Kverkfjöll (1764 meters) , - Laki (1725 meters), - Loki-Fögrufjöll (1570 meters), - Ljósufjöll (988 meters), - Lýsuhóll (+540 meters), - Öræfajökull (2119 meters), - Prestahnúkur (1220 meters), - Reykjanes (230 meters), - Reykjaneshryggur (80 meters), - Snæfellsjökull (1448 meters), - Surtsey (155 meters), - Theistareykjarbunga (540 meters), - Thórðarhyrna (1660 meters), - Thórólfsfell (574 meters), - Thríhnákagígur (550 meters), - Tindfjallajökull (1463 meters), - Torfajökull (1280 meters), - Trölladyngja (1468 meters), - Tungnafellsjökull (1535 meters), - Vatnafjöll (1235 meters).

 * sv: Vatnaöldur
 * ceb: Vatnaöldur

Vatnaöldur is the name of a series of craters in the Suðurland region of Iceland. They are located in the Highlands of Iceland, northwest of the Veiðivötn and northeast of Landmannalaugar, within the municipality of Rangárþing ytra.

The craters were formed during a series of eruptions in the volcanic system of the Bárðarbunga around the year 870. These eruptions, like those of the neighbouring Veiðivötn, were from about 65 km long volcanic fissures within the area of ​​a lake. The mainly explosive eruptions emitted 5-10 km3 of tholeiite basalt.

 * Nýey, Nýeyjar, was an eruptive island that formed in 1783 due to an underwater eruption southwest of Reykjanes, Iceland. It disappeared within a year.

==History

The formation of "Nýeyjar" began on May 1, 1783. It attracted a lot of attention and some connected it to the 1783_Calabrian_earthquakes.

The captain of a "is: húkkerta" that sailed in the area, wrote in his diary about a burning island 15.7 km due southwest of Geirfuglasker. He tried to observe it but had to stay over half a mile away, due to the poisonous sulphurous smoke.

King Christian VII of Denmark named the island "Nýey", ordered an expedition to it, and dedicated it to the monarchy with a Danish flag. He also planned for an inscribed stone to be placed on the island.

It had disappeared by the summer of 1784, when Magnús Stephensen (Lawyer and Supreme Court Judge), planned to dedicate it to the king whilst en-route to Copenhagen.

 * Buffalo Pitts was an early manufacturer of agricultural implements. Twin brothers Hiram and John Pitts, blacksmiths by trade, develop a stationary thresher while in Winthrop, Maine. Wheat is grown in the expanding west, the west being Illinois at the time, so Hiram moves to Chicago while John moves to Albany and then to Rochester. While in Rochester, John partners with Daniel Carey and Joseph Hall and manufactures horse powers. (Carey’s Patent Horse Power) A dispute with Hall over a patent ends with John moving to Buffalo and forming the John A. Pitts Company. John dies in 1859 (Hiram in 1860) and his son and son-in-law take over. After a series of name changes, including incorporation as the Pitts Agricultural Works in 1877, the company becomes Buffalo Pitts in 1897. The first steam traction engine is introduced in 1882 and builds a reputation through the 1890s. The company falters by 1915 after a series of efforts to stay in business that include gasoline tractors (1912 – 1914), and airplanes.

The internationally-recognized manufacturing powerhouse that was the Buffalo Pitts Company began in 1837, started by J.A. and H.A. Pitts. The company specialized in steam-powered engines and vehicles such as the one here pictured (c.1900).

Its fame came from road-building equipment and agricultural tractors and threshers, the latter particularly valuable in the last half of the 19th century as the Great Plains were brought under cultivation.

The Buffalo Pitts manufacturing complex was located close to the Erie Canal and Buffalo harbor transhipment venues, occupying the blocks at Carolina and 4th Streets in the city. In 1901, the Buffalo Pitts Company was represented at the Pan-American Exposition at the Mission Building, erected in part by Buffalo Pitts officer Carleton Sprague.

The Buffalo Pitts company continued into the 20th century but, by 1918, it was in receivership. Look for a detailed story on this company in the Fall 2004 issue of the Western New York Heritage magazine!

Twin brothers Hiram A. Pitts and John A. Pitts of Winthrop, Me., were granted a series of patents beginning in 1834. In 1837 they patented a new type of thresher, a "continuous apron" style, and they licensed it to several other manufacturers including Jerome I. Case. Hiram moved to Chicago and established an agricultural equipment manufacturer there, and John moved to Albany and then to Rochester, NY, where he partnered with Daniel Carey and Joseph Hall to build Carey's patent horse power. In 1852, Hall was assigned a thresher patent without Pitts, a move that marked the end of the partnership. John Pitts moved to Buffalo in 1851 or '52 and established his own agricultural equipment manufacturing firm, the John A. Pitts Company. On John's death in 1859 the business was taken over by son Calvin Pitts and son-in-law James Brayley. In this era the company went through a series of names, including Buffalo Agricultural Works, Pitts Agricultural Works, Brayley & Pitts' Works, and, eventually, the Buffalo Pitts Company. 1908 Buffalo Pitts Factory View 1909 Erie Canal View with Buffalo Pitts Factory in Background

Beginning in 1880 the Buffalo Pitts Co. made products of interest to this website: steam traction engines and portable steam engines. By 1900 the company was no longer thriving, and in 1914 it entered receivership. A 1915 catalog had only steam engines, the other product lines having been either discontinued or sold off. An exception was the company's thriving line of road-building machinery that was organized as a subsidiary, the Buffalo Steamroller Company. In 1916 that subsidiary merged with Kelly-Springfield Road Roller Company to create the Buffalo-Springfield Roadroller Company of Springfield, Ohio.

Meanwhile, the manufacture of steam engines continued under the Buffalo Pitts banner. Unfortunately the 1910s was the end of the steam engine era, and lacking the financial resources to modernize its product line, the Buffalo Pitts company faded away.

Information Sources Brian Szafranski's Buffalo Pitts web site provided much of the history of this company. The list of premiums awarded at the 1857 New York State Fair includes a diploma awarded to Buffalo Agricultural Works for their mortising machine. This was likely to the Buffalo Agricultural Machine Works, a similarly named but separate firm that is known to have made a mortiser. E. R. Jewett's 1858 Buffalo Directory lists Buffalo Agricultural Works, John A. Pitts, proprietor, located at Carolina corner of Third. E. R. Jewett's 1860 Buffalo Directory lists Buffalo Agricultural Works, Brayley & Pitts, proprietor, located at Carolina corner of 4th. Foreman (and machinist) was Calvin W. Pitts. The 1866 book The Manufacturing Interests of the City of Buffalo. Brayley & Pitts' Works occupy a part of two squares of ground, bounded on the Erie Canal, Carolina, Fourth and Efner streets. The late Mr. John A. Pitts came here in the year 1851; he had already established several small works: the first one in his native State, in the town of Winthrop, Maine; in Albany and Rochester N. Y. and in Springfield, Ohio, laboring all through those fourteen years with indefatigable energy and toil to introduce to the farmers this valuable machine. He was the first to establish in this city a manufactory of this kind. This establishment is indebted to him for its celebrity, mainly for the valuable inventions made by him.

This gentleman is accredited with having invented the Treading or Endless Chain Horse Power, which was patented by him in 1836; also for the first Chain Pump, and the first combined Thresher and Separator, patented in 1837; the latter is now a leading article manufactured at these works. Important improvements have been made in the construction, operation, and capacity of this machine since it was first invented, at first requiring only the power of two horses, and threshing about one hundred bushels of grain per day; now various sizes are made, for four, for size, for eight and for ten horses; also larger sizes adapted for steam power, which will thresh and clean from 2,000 to 3,000 bushels of grain per day. From five to six hundred of these machines are now made and sold annually from these works. Since first invented, there have been added some valuable improvements, one of which is for measuring, counting and bagging the grain, another for elevating the straw and delivering it on the stacks. The value of such a labor saving machine as this can hardly be computed.

In these works are moulding rooms, where they make their own castings; a large lumber yeard, where sufficient lumber is constantly on hand to be sufficiently seasoned before being worked into the machines. The iron or machine shop is large, and supplied with the best tools to be had. The wood shop is also supplied with all the most improved tools for this branch of work. The increasing demand for this machine over all others of similar style is attributed of late years to the excellency of the materials and its good construction; their renown in this respect is world wide; it is said they are the only machine that stand the very dry and scorching climate of the Pacific coast. Large numbers are sold annually for Australia, and for South America, California and Oregon. Since the close of the rebellion, orders are again coming in from Texas and other parts of the Southern country. They employ from one hundred and thirty to one hundred and fifty men, and use of pig and bar iron about one thousand tons annually. The pig iron is from the Salisbury and other charcoal furnaces, of the very best brands. The bar iron is from the rolling mills in this city.

The company intends to manufacture road rollers and engines as well as import and export the same. The directors are Carlton Sprague, Charles M. Greiner and Henry S. Cunningham. A History of Buffalo by the Progress of the Empire State Co. 1911, page 2. Among the manufactories that have had importance in the industrial history of the city and a continuous career, is that which bears now the name of the Buffalo Pitts Company. Its founders were John A. and Hiram Pitts, twin brothers, of Winthrop, Maine, who were the first American inventors of threshing machinery, and who patented, in 1837, the first successful threshing and separating machine combined. Prior to this they had made improvements on the old style of thresher, which turned out grain, chaff and straw together, to be separated by another operation. In combining the thresher and the fanning mill, producing the "endless apron" or "grain belt" separator, they opened a new era in that line of invention, and the principles covered by their original patents have been followed in all improvements since. In 1840 John A. Pitts came to Buffalo and established the manufacture of the new threshing machine here, at the corner of Fourth and Carolina streets, from which place the shops have never been changed, though enlarged till they contain many acres of floor space. On the death of Mr. Pitts, in 1859, the management of the business passed to James Brayley, who conducted it for many years. In 1877 the proprietors were incorporated, under the name of The Pitts Agricultural Works, James Brayley president, Thomas Sully secretary. This title was changed to that of Buffalo Pitts Company in 1897, when Carleton Sprague became president of the company. Recently Mr. Sprague retired, and the present officers of the company are C. M. Greiner, president and treasurer; William G. Gomez, vice-president; John B. Olmsted, secretary. Under all administrations the business has expanded continually, its products going to all parts of the world. Those products are not only the threshing machinery for all kinds of grain, flax, rice, beans, etc., but traction and portable engines, that burn wood, coal, straw or oil for fuel; special steam traction engines for plowing, hauling and grading; road locomotives and road freight cars for hauling ore, timber, logs, etc., and special cars for carrying and spreading crushed stone. The development of the steam traction engine is due to this company. The plant of the company is operated by electric power from Niagara Falls, and is equipped with the latest and most complete system of electric and pneumatic machinery. It employs a large force of men, and the shops are run throughout the year. The company maintains important branches at Minneapolis, Fargo, Portland, Oregon, Spokane, Wichita, Houston, and other points east and west. A History of the city of Buffalo Buffalo Evening News 1908 page 91. The Buffalo Pitts Company is without doubt one of the largest and most successful manufacturers of steam traction engines and threshing machinery in the world. Its business was established here in the city of Buffalo in the year 1837, where from a small, conservative beginning the plant has grown to be one of the largest in existence, and attracts a trade unequaled by any similar industry in the history of our commerce. The main offices of the company are located here, while important branches will be found at Fargo, North Dakota; Minneapolis, Minnesota; Portland, Oregon; Spokane, Washington; Houston, Texas; Wichita, Kansas; Madison, Wisconsin; Toledo, Ohio; Omaha, Nebraska; San Francisco, California; Peoria, Illinois; and Saint Louis, Missouri. The main plant of the company is located at Fourth and Carolina streets. Here, over fifty years ago, was invented the first threshing machine with proper devices for threshing and cleaning the grain in one operation. Prior to these inventions by the Pitts brothers there existed only such machines as would thresh the grain from the head, the straw, chaff, and grain falling in a mass behind the machine, to be separated by hand. The development of the steam traction engine for motive power for threshing, hauling, grading, and plowing is due to the never-failing energy of this company. Buffalo Pitts engines will be found in every country where grain grows or highways run. From the small farm lands of the East to the Pacific Coast, in South America, Australia, the Philippine Islands, Russia, Austria, and Germany the products of the Buffalo Pitts Company are known for their excellent construction and durability. The plant of the company is not only the largest, but is the only one of its kind operated by electric power from the great falls of Niagara. It is equipped with the latest and most complete system of electric and pneumatic machinery. A large force of first-class mechanics is regularly employed, and the shops are run throughout the entire year. The products of the Buffalo Pitts Company consist of large machinery, and include traction and portable engines that burn wood, coal, straw, or oil for fuel; machinery for threshing, separating, and cleaning all kinds of grain, flax, rice, beans, and so forth; special steam traction engines for plowing, hauling, and grading; road locomotives and road freight cars for hauling ore, timber, logs, or coke; and special cars for carrying and spreading crushed stone. These products are shipped to all parts of the globe. The officers of the company are C. M. Greiner, president and treasurer; William G. Gomez, vice-president; John M. Olmsted, secretary. Steam Power on the American Farm by Reynold M. Wik, 1953 pages 252 & 254. John Avery Pitts and Hiram Abial Pitts were born in Clinton, Maine, December 8, 1799. They received common school education and learned the blacksmith’s trade in their father’s shop. They lived in Winthrop, Maine, for some years, carrying on their trade there.

The brothers early developed mechanical and inventive abilities. In 1830, they patented a threshing machine with an improved railway tread power, which consisted in the substitution, under the movable platform, of an endless chain of rollers, for the leather belt. They began the manufacture of this device, introducing it into New England States in connection with the common thresher or “Ground Hog”, as it was sometimes called. Later they conceived the idea of combining this improvement applied to the old-fashioned thresher, with the common fanning mill, in a portable form; and after years of labor, produced in 1834, the first practicable separating thresher put in actual use. Other improvements were gradually added by the two brothers, and on December 29, 1837, a joint patent was granted to them for the new machine, which was the original of the great family of “endless apron” separators. This machine was capable of threshing from 300 to 500 bushels a day. Its direct descendant, the Buffalo Pitts Steel Frame Thresher for 1910, threshes from 2,000 to 4,000 bushels of grain a day.

John A. Pitts and his brother Calvin, left Maine and engaged in the manufacturing of threshing machines, under the name of the Pitts Agricultural Works in 1837, first in Albany, N.Y. and Rochester, N.Y., then in Springfield, Ohio, and finally in Buffalo, N. Y., in 1851. They incorporated as a stock company in 1877, which is now the Buffalo Pitts Company, the name having been changed in 1897. This is the oldest threshing machinery company in the country. Mr. Pitts subsequently invented an attachment for measuring and registering the number of bushels threshed and bagged, and received a gold medal at the Paris Exposition in 1855. Hiram A. Pitts retired from the Pitts Agricultural Works in 1855, and moved to Chicago, Illinois, where he engaged in business for himself. John A. Pitts died in Buffalo, N. Y., July 1, 1859.

The growth of the business originated by Messrs. Pitts has been wonderful. In 1851, the plant consisted of two small brick buildings, one three stories and the other one story high, and a one-story frame building, 16 x 20 feet, which was used for an office. The office force consisted of three clerks, and the head clerk received a salary of $600.00 dollars a year. The property, when purchased by John A. Pitts, was a deep swamp or gully on the banks of the Erie Canal near the shore of Lake Erie. It was entirely unfit for building purposes until filled in with Lake Erie sand, which was conveyed from the beach in wheelbarrows. For this purpose four canal boats were anchored twenty feet apart, and planks extending from one to the other, which formed a portable bridge; and over this structure twenty men labored several weeks wheeling sand, and working fourteen hours a day. The number of men on the factory pay roll was in the neighborhood of one hundred and twenty. Today the factory of the Buffalo Pitts Company cover fifteen acres of floor space, and on its pay roll is an army of from seven to eleven hundred men.

The development of the machinery has been as great as that of the factory itself, from the first small thresher, scarcely larger than a grand piano, and the horse-power which operated it, to the powerful engines which plow the vast grain fields of the west, and operate the steel frame threshers of almost limitless capacity, which prepare their harvests for threshing.

==History

In 1838 Nahum and Clement Russell started a general carpentry business in Massillon, Ohio. They used a two-story frame building, and drove the machinery by horse-power. They made plows and agricultural implements, plus building houses, furniture, burial cases, and more. The carpentry shop burned down in 1840, so Charles, Nahum and Clement – formed C.M. Russell & Co. on Jan. 1, 1842, based in an old whitewashed building called the "White Shop".

In 1842 C.M.Russell & Company was formed by Charles. M. Russell and his brothers, Nahum and Clement. On seeing Hiram and John Pitts Separator (Thresher) from Nichols and Shepard, and they understood its short-comings such that Russell & Co's improved machine took the honours at the Ohio State Fair at Columbus in 1845.

The Russells purchased stock in the Ohio & Pennsylvania Railroad, urged it to come through Massillon, and in 1852 they began producing handcars and stock cars for the railroad company. The business flourished, three more brothers joined and in 1864 it was incorporated as "Russell & Co". In 1871 the company divided; C. Russell & Co. moved to Canton, Ohio to make agricultural reapers and mowers.

In 1884, Russell & Company began producing steam traction engines and quickly became one of the largest producers of industrial and agricultural equipment.

On May 17, 1878, a fire did $150,000 of damage to machinery, wagon stock, 36 years of patterns, plus other losses. Insurance covered only $53,100, a third of the total. Two-thirds of the main building was saved and new machinery was ordered, leaving 250 men out of work. A new 250 foot long four-story brick warehouse was built. ...

Russell & Co reportedly started building Russell Steam Traction Engines after their 1878 incorporation, and by 1880, they employed 425 people on a seven acre site, with their own railroad sidetrack. ...

By 1909, the 21 acre plant had produced 18,000 farm, traction and stationary engines, plus 22,000 threshing machines. They also made sawmills, pneumatic stackers, feeders and road rollers.

===Merger and demise

By 1912, the company was in decline, and it merged with "Griscom-Spencer" Company of New Jersey. They created parts for Naval vessels during World War I, and earned an Army-Navy “E” for excellence during World War II.

In 1962, the company was purchased by Baldwin-Lima-Hamilton Company and the Massillon plant closed, laying off 800 employees).

Nahum, the eldest of the six brothers living, was raised on the home farm. His advantages for schooling were poor, attending school a short time during the winter months, and working at home during the remaining part of the year. In the winter of 1831, he went to Walpole, New Hampshire to learn the trade of carpenter and joiner, serving for three years as an apprentice. During his apprenticeship, he strove to improve himself in every way; realizing the advantages of an education, attended the Academy at Walpole what time he could spare from his labor. In the spring of 1825, he moved to Keene, N.H., where he remained one year working at his trade. Afterward went to Virgennes and Buffalo and New York. Afterward went to Cleveland and assisted in building the American Hotel on Superior street. He remained in Cleveland until 1838, when with his brothers, Charles M. and Clement, he came to Massillon, and in connection with them engaged in the building and contracting business. April 27, 1841, he was married to Esther K. Millard, born Feb. 29, 1819, in New York daughter of William J. Millard, born Feb. 28, 1796, whose wife was Elizabeth J. Ball, born Oct. 12, 1800. Jan. 1, 1842, in connection with his brothers, Charles and Clement, formed a co-partnership under the style of C. M. Russell & Co., for the manufacture of threshers and horse-powers, in conjunction with their business as carpenters and builders. Their capital stock was but $1,500; thus starting with a small capital they built and by hard work and tireless energy and perseverance, one of the largest and most prosperous manufacturing establishments in the country, giving employment to hundreds of men.Find a Grave - Russell Bros

For a more general account of the business, etc., the reader is referred to the history of the business interests of Massillon, of which this is the most prominent. Mr. Russell had three children born to him, but two living -- Flora, wife of J. W. McClymonds, of this city, and Anna, wife of Louie McClymonds, who are residents of Cleveland. Mary Louisa died March 10, 1861, aged 19 years. Find a Grave - Russell Bros

Cabot fault

 * Cabot fault


 * Great Glen Fault ... The fault continues on the North American side of the North Atlantic Ocean, but is no longer part of a contiguous fault, as the complete fault was broken when the Mid-Atlantic Ridge formed 200 million years ago. The North American side of the fault runs through the length of northwestern Newfoundland, Canada, as the Cabot Fault (Long Range Fault) and on into the Gulf of St. Lawrence.


 * Aspy Fault ... is a strike-slip fault that runs through 40 km of Cape Breton, Nova Scotia and is often thought to be a part of the Cabot Fault/ Great Glen Fault system of Avalonia.


 * Nature, 14 July 1962 ... Cabot Fault, An Appalachian Equivalent of the San Andreas and Great Glen Faults and some Implications for Continental Displacement by John Tuzo Wilson.


 * Memorial University of Newfoundland - Tectonics and basin deformation in the Cabot Strait area and implications for the late Paleozoic development of the Appalacians in the St. Lawrence Promontory. George S Langdon, 1996 Thesis (Doctoral (PhD)). ...

The Cabot Strait lies astride the Cabot Fault system at the eastern extent of the Magdalen Basin, a pull-apart structure which was the depocentre of the regional Maritimes successor basin during the late Devonian to early Permian development of the Canadian Appalachians. Under the Cabot Strait two linear grabens parallel the major fault trends and preserve up to 6 km of Devonian to Carboniferous sedimentary rocks.

In Part I of this study these strata have been mapped using conventional reflection seismic data, with support from potential field and onshore geological data. A series of major dextral strike-slip faults, including the Cape Ray Fault, the Hollow-St. George's Bay Fault, and the Red Island Fault parallel the regional trend, and define a wrench borderland geometry with the Cabot Fault as the master fault. The Cape Ray Fault is shown to have played a role in middle to late Devonian basin formation as well as Carboniferous deformation, while the others were active only in the Carboniferous. Four unconformities yield timing of movement along the faults and allow correlations to be made with regional deformation. Classic wrench-related features such as restraining bends, flower structures and inversion profiles are present in the Cabot Strait-Bay St. George area.

In Part II, the middle Devonian and later modification of the orogen at the St. Lawrence Promontory is examined through a series of crustal profiles, terrane configuration sketches, and paleogeographic reconstructions. Data pertaining to the Salinic and Acadian events are compiled, and evidence is presented for the development of the preHorton/Horton basins as extensional collapse features associated with the overthickening of the crust at the collision of two promontories. Overstepping, mainly post-Tournaisian basin development is seen primarily as a consequence of dextral strike-slip. Both of the above processes were enhanced and overprinted in Newfoundland by tectonic ejection of crustal blocks away from the St. Lawrence Promontory. Localized terrestrial basins such as the Deer Lake Basin are related mainly to this latter process. The reconstructions further reveal that the distribution of pre-existing lower Paleozoic terranes can be explained by an evolving series of dextral strike-slip faults centered on the Cabot Fault system.

Part III consists of a series of paleogeographic reconstructions of lands bordering the North Atlantic, which allow conclusions of the foregoing chapters to be projected on a regional scale. The Silurian-early Devonian tectonic development of the St. Lawrence Promontory is visualized as a process of sinistral terrane accretion, featuring a continuum of terrane sizes, ranging from slivers to microplates. For the mid-Devonian and later, arguments are made for tectonic processes which have been accepted for some time in Europe, but which have not been fully evaluated in the Canadian Appalachians, such as tectonic indentation {wedging), tectonic escape and extensional collapse. The Maritimes Basin is interpreted to have evolved in two phases, the first related to Appalachian crustal overthickening and collapse, and the second related to Variscan foreland strike-slip. This latter transcurrent faulting is attributed to the action of the Iberian indentor and consequent escape of West Avalonia, and not to large scale rotation of the combined Laurentia + Baltica plate

Marcel Leyat

 * Marcel Leyat ...
 * Leyat was a French automobile manufacturer, established in 1919 in Paris
 * de: Leyat ...
 * fr: Marcel Leyat ...
 * Marcel Leyat, (born March 26, 1885 Die, Drôme, died December 3, 1986) was a French engineer, inventor, aviation pioneer, aeronautical and automobile manufacturer. Leyat establishments at the Quai de Grenelle in the 15th arrondissement Paris operated from 1913 until 1927. The Hélica automobile was known as 'The plane without wings'. The passengers sat behind each other as in an aircraft, and it was driven by a giant propeller powered by an 8 bhp (6.0 kW) Scorpion engine. The body of the vehicle was made of plywood.

==Early life and education ... Born in Die, Drôme, he graduated from the École Centrale Paris in 1907.

==Career ... From 1908, he worked for the Société Astra and built a biplane glider called the Quand Quelle (When, which). In 1909 he targeted 'the first powered crossing of the English Channel', but Louis Blériot succeeded on July 21, three weeks before his De Dion-Bouton 5 hp powered plane completed a flight of 200 m at 10 m elevation on August 15th. In 1910, he built a propeller driven biplane 11 m long and 16 m wide. He obtained the FAI pilot 's license in 1911. During the First World War, he built several aircraft, including a "living wing" bomber. In all, he designed and built around thirty different aircraft up to World War II.

He moved to Meursault in 1922.

Biography The aviator Marcel Leyat studied at the École centrale de Paris and graduated in 1907. From 1908, he worked for the Astra 2 Company, and Leyat built a biplane glider called the Quand Quelle , then a second, towed by a de Dion of 5 hp , with which it performs a flight of 200 m at 10  m from the ground onAugust 15, 19092. He pretended in 1909 to the first crossing of the English Channel, but Blériot carried out his theJuly 21.

In 1910, he built a propeller biplane 11 m long and 16  m wide. He obtained the FAI pilot 's license in 1911. During the First World War, he built several aircraft, including a "living wing" bomber.

 * fr: Tour d'Ordre
 * Boulogne-sur-Mer Roman lighthouse: A tall lighthouse was built at Gesoriacum circa 39 AD by order of the Emperor Caligula,[7] possibly in preparation for an invasion of Britain. Known as the Tour d'Ordre, coastal erosion caused it to topple into the sea in 1644.


 * Roman conquest of Britain Caligula built a lighthouse at Bononia (modern Boulogne-sur-Mer), the Tour D'Ordre, that provided a model for the one built soon after at Dubris (Dover). ... Two lighthouses, each called the Pharos, were built at Dover soon after the Roman conquest. Proposals of their date range from 50 (seven years after the invasion of 43), 80 or (since the building includes tiles identical to the mansio in the town built at that date) c. 138, though the general consensus is for a 1st-century AD date. They were sited on the two heights (Eastern Heights and Western Heights) and modelled on the Tour d'Ordre built for Caligula's aborted invasion at Boulogne.[3]

==Start
 * Peu-Richard culture, Culture de Peu-Richard (French), Thénacien (occasional), is a cultural stage of the late Neolithic, (circa 3,300 BC), in the former Saintonge province, the modern département of Charente-Maritime in western France.

==Etymology
 * The name is derived from the hamlet of Peu-Richard, within the town of Thénac, Charente-Maritime.

==History
 * The Peu-Richard site and culture was excavated in 1882 by Baron Eugène Eschassériaux and described scientifically in 1884 in his paper Le camp néolithique du Peurichard (Charente-inférieure) for the 'Commission des Arts et monuments historiques de la Charente-inférieure, et Société de l’Archéologie de Saintes'.

==Geographical area
 * Peu Richard culture extended from the Saintonge and the lower and middle reaches of the river Charente, northwards to the bocage of the Vendée near La Roche-sur-Yon, south to the Médoc north of Bordeaux and east to Cognac in the western Charente department. To the southeast, it encompassed the middle reaches of the rivers Dronne and Isle in the Dordogne département.

===The site at Thénac
 * The first traces were located on the Puy Richard, a slight hill, outside Thénac in 1882. The site, tens of hectares in size with a diameter of more than 150 metres, was surrounded by three systems of ditches. The outer ditch was 7 metres wide, 3.50 metres deep and 900 metres long, whilst the inner was 9 to 10 metres wide and 2.3 metres deep. The ditches were crossed by 5 access roads protected by stone towers. Wooden palisades stood on the inside of the trenches. The complex is presumed to have protected cattle, domestic animals, and around 400 residents. It contained: stone and bone tools, a wide variety of ceramics, 417 stone axes and smaller hatchets, 230 remains of grain hand mills, several huts and a granary.

==Characteristics
 * The stone tools of the Peu-Richard culture do not show any major innovations compared to the Middle Neolithic and the previous Matignons culture (de: Matignons-Kultur). In addition to the usual scrapers, drills, burins, etc., various knives and very small burins (micro-denticulés on a blade) appear. Cutting tools were used as weapons, the majority of which had a trapezoidal cross-section. Sharp arrowheads are of either the Sublaines type, which ranged from Angoumois to the Paris Basin, or the Armorican Massif type.[3]

==Ceramics
 * Peu-Ricard pottery reflects the Matignons culture and was possibly also influenced by the Seine-Oise-Marne culture. There was commonality with the Moulin-de-Vent culture from further south-east on the lower reaches of the Dordogne and the Garonne.


 * The ceramics consisted primarily of storage vases up to one meter high with round bases and vases of the flower pot type. It was decorated with up to three horizontal incisions above the main bulge, overlapping flutes and garlands, plus wart-like protrusions on the bulges. There are often zigzag, ray or star shape motifs. The openings of some vessels are accompanied by paired eye-like depressions, which is similar to late Spanish Almería culture (es: Cultura almeriense).[4]

 * Isabella Offenbach Maas

==Early life and education .. Isabella was one of ten children of Isaac Juda Offenbach, né Eberst (1779–1850) and his wife Marianne, née Rindskopf (c. 1783–1840). Isaac, who came from a musical family, had abandoned his original trade as a bookbinder and earned an itinerant living as a cantor in synagogues and playing the violin in cafés. He was generally known as "der Offenbacher", after his native town, Offenbach am Main, and in 1808 he officially adopted Offenbach as a surname. In 1816 he settled in Cologne, where he became established as a teacher, giving lessons in singing, violin, flute, and guitar, and composing both religious and secular music.

Isabella played piano in a trio with her brothers Jacob (Jacques) cello, and Julius (violin). They performed popular dance music and operatic arrangements at local dance halls, inns and cafés.

He was a bicycle enthusiast, racer, engineer and cycle-builder who is reputed to have invented hollow metal wheel-rims with tensioned metal spokes for lightness and performance.

===Early life

Jules Truffault was the only surviving child of Jules Auguste Truffault (1812-1859) and Marie Liot (1817-1900), his younger brother died at the age of 5.

===Personal life

On 29 August 1871, Truffault married Euphrasie Ernestine Niebling (1847-1925) at Sainte-Maure-de-Touraine. They had 6 children: Georges (1873-1933), Marguerite (1874-1892), Thérèse (1877-1951), Suzanne (1880-1951), André (1883-1973) and Louis (1885-1896).

During his early life and career in bicycles he was known simply as Jules Truffault, but in the 1890s, circa 1898, he adopted the style J.M.M.Truffault for his career in the naiscent automobile industry and dealings in Great Britain and the USA.

====ref name="Old Motor".... In 1898, French cyclist J.M.M. Truffault invented what appears to be the very first shock absorber to be used on a vehicle, after installing it on a bicycle.

In 1898, French cyclist J.M.M. Truffault invented what appears to be the very first shock absorber to be used on a vehicle, after installing it on a bicycle. It consisted of a front fork with a suspension that used coil springs and a friction device that minimized vibrations.

The next year Edward V. Hartford, an American, witnessed a motor-tricycle race in France that was won by a Darracq ridden by Marcellin and powered by a 12 HP Buchet twin-cylinder engine. It was equipped with a 'La Fourche Truffault', a sprung-fork built by the Frenchman with his new invention.

Patent1                                Patent2 Drawings for the original shock absorber patent granted on March 18, 1902.

The two soon became friends after Hartford had Truffault install a unit on his 2 1/4 HP de Dion tricycle with what he described as most gratifying results. In the fall of 1900 he purchased one of the new 1901 curved-dashed Oldsmobile’s and shipped it to France to have his friend experiment with and install a set of the devices on the little car. After the car's return to the States, the pair who were working together were unable to interest any American manufacturers in using the shocks, other than one offer from one to buy the patent. Negotiations back in France with Peugeot resulted in the automaker installing them on his own car and also selling a few sets.

The first real marketing success of the friction-dampers came when Léon Théry was able to see the merit of using them and equipped his Richard-Brasier racing car with a set. The units in turn helped him as he went on to win the 1904 Gordon Bennett Cup race in Germany.

====ref name="Automobile History".... The first true shock absorbers were fitted to a racing bicycle in 1898 by a Frenchman named J. M. M. Truffault. The front fork was suspended on springs, and incorporated a friction device that kept the bike from oscillating constantly. In 1899, an American automobile enthusiast named Edward V. Hartford saw one of Truffault's bikes win a marathon race at Versailles. Hartford immediately recognized the automotive potential of the friction device.

Hartford and Truffault got together and by the next year Hartford had outfitted an Oldsmobile with a variation of Truffault's device. This first automobile shock absorber consisted of a pair of levers that were hinged together with a pad of rubber placed at the pivot point. One of the lever arms was attached to the frame, while the other was bolted to the leaf spring.

A bolt placed at the hinge point could be tightened or loosened to increase or decrease the friction, providing a stiffer or softer ride. The Truffault-Hartford unit was, therefore, not only the first automotive shock absorber, but also the first adjustable shock.

Hartford brought the car to America, where he opened his own plant, the Hartford Suspension Co., in Jersey City, New Jersey. His first big contract came from Alanson P. Brush, who installed shock absorbers along with front coil springs on the 1906 Brush Runabout. The ride given by the car was called "magnificent" in a critique written by Hugh Dolnar for Cycle and Automobile Trade Journal.

In the history of the bicycle, the name of Jules Truffault is forever inscribed by these few lines which can be found everywhere on the net or in specialized books. This immense advance in the evolution of the bicycle that we owe to this inventor from Touraine is also the tree that hides the forest. Jules Truffault was active for more than thirty years in the bicycle and automobile world and we owe much more to him than this masterful invention. An unknown character, forgotten today, he does not have the place that should be his and we are going to try here to highlight all his work for so many years.

Born September 29, 1845, in Tours, Jules Michel Marie Truffault was first a bicycle enthusiast before becoming a renowned builder. He is one of the hundred or so lovers of the little queen who, on November 7, 1869 in the early hours of the morning, took the start of the first online race, the famous Paris Rouen, organized by Richard Lesclide, editor-in-chief of the "Le Vélocipède Illustré". At the time, there were obviously no following cars and no one provided security or signage at crossroads. Like other competitors, Jules Truffaut got lost. According to Baudry de Saulnier, who specifies that Jules Truffault lives in Tours, he found himself in the company of Albert Laumaillé, in an inn in Pont-de-l'Arche, a small town in the Eure department about 20 kilometers south of Rouen. It was not possible for us to find other traces attesting to the participation of Jules Truffault in other velocipedic events but, this seems sufficient to us to evoke the passion of this man for the first velocipeds. From that time on, Jules Truffault was presented as a builder of cycles and one can imagine that it was also from his own practice that he drew the lessons which led to his inventions.

A major problem arose in the early 1870s for bicycle manufacturers: how to increase the speed of their machines without this translating into increased efforts by the |veloceman. In the state of knowledge at the time, two answers could be provided: increasing the size of the driving wheel which is then in direct transmission and reducing the weight of the machine. It is in this area that Jules Truffault will excel, succeeding thanks to his inventions to lighten and make machines more comfortable.

Jules Truffault, Issue : 'Theoretical and practical cycling' by L. Baudry de Saunier, Publisher: Librairie illustrée, Paris, 1893

Around 1875, Jules Truffault, who was looking for how to make his machines lighter and therefore faster and more manageable, applied to the rim and the fork a technique already used for frames: the hollow tube. For the fork, he achieved this technical feat from a decommissioned stock of saber scabbards that he fashioned into a hollow but just as strong fork. It is for this reason that even today, we speak of sleeves for the tubes constituting the fork of a bicycle.

The realization of hollow rims posed more problems for him but after some failures he succeeded beyond his expectations. Not only was the rim he had just designed noticeably lighter, but it was also more flexible, therefore less brittle and above all more comfortable. To achieve this result, Jules Truffault replaced the heavy wooden or rigid metal spokes with tensioned metal spokes which held the rim while giving it a minimum of flexibility in absorbing shocks from the road. Due to this design, we therefore go from a totally rigid device to another whose flexibility and strength would prove its worth very quickly.

Extract: ''The inventions of the small provincial manufacturer Jules Truffault at the time quickly made the world tour of the nascent cycle industry. It would seem that as early as 1877, Jules Truffault sold his machines across the Channel and that he had a business relationship with British manufacturers in the Coventry region where most of the English cycle industry was concentrated.''

If we are to believe Max de Nansouty, scientific journalist author of numerous works between 1890 and 1910, Jules Truffault would also have had the intuition of the freewheel without however succeeding in conceiving the necessary mechanism for the realization of his idea.

Jules Truffault's business prospered, but Tours was too small a town and too far from the main manufacturers of components for bicycles not to become an obstacle to the development of the company. In 1882, Jules Truffault joined forces with a man named Jéanne to create a new brand of cycles headquartered in Paris. The links with suppliers and customers are thereby facilitated and he can devote himself to other inventions he has in mind.

During the ten years that followed Jules Truffault was regularly talked about thanks to his inventions and the patents he filed.

Around 1885, he tried to develop a device called the Sphinx. This ancestor of Safety is equipped with gears installed in a closed box and whose organization doubled the machine. Like all geared machines, the Sphinx has the disadvantage of unreliable in terms of the transmission of energy imposed on the pedals.

big bi. ... With the de facto disappearance of the bicycle in front of the modernity of the bicycle despite the difficulties he encountered, Jules Truffault strongly believed in his invention and he tried without much success to adapt it to other models.

Anything that can improve user comfort is of interest to Jules Truffault, who devotes a large part of his time and energy to it.

big bi: ... Some of his inventions, which can be found in the patent that our inventor filed may make you smile today but others are very relevant and they clearly show the ingenuity of Jules Truffault. After having worked and shaped metals to make machines lighter, our man has developed his research showing that he was not just a simple bicycle frame builder. In particular, he tackled things more and more specialized and in particular the suspensions by demonstrating in my opinion a great modernity. He may not have had the intuition of hydraulic suspensions and he worked only using the springs, but the diagrams of his suspension fork and also of a “full suspension” machine speak for themselves.

In the mid-1890s, we lost track of Jules Truffault, whose name disappeared from the news in the cycle industry.

At the same time ; a Truffault named Jules Michel Marie created the Truffault automobile company and increased the number of patents, particularly in the field of suspensions. Nothing in our research has allowed us to confirm with certainty that it was indeed the same man, yet there are many points in common that suggest. In 1895, Jules Truffault was fifty years old and like a good number of cycle manufacturers and even cyclists (Michelin, Terrot, Corre, etc.), he was probably attracted by the nascent automobile industry. This is developed using techniques very close to those put into practice in the manufacture of cycles and for Jules Truffault as for many of his colleagues, there is an opportunity to develop the activity at a lower cost, by using know-how and techniques that he already masters perfectly. In addition, the magazine “Popular Mechanics” published by Hearst editions in 1985 (page 66) as well as the book “Automotive Mechatronics: Operational and Practical Issues”, Volume 2 by BT Fijalkowski (page 261) assert that the first suspension “true shock absorb ”was installed on a racing bicycle in 1898 by JMM Truffault.

Jules and Jules Michel Marie are probably one but then why this sudden change and this passage from 1 to 3 first names? Should this be seen as a desire to dissociate the activity of cycle manufacturer for which Jules Truffault is associated with Jéanne while for the automotive activity he works alone. Perhaps this distinction allowed him to clearly mark the difference between the two companies and to avoid any confusion in the ownership of patents?

For a decade, the “new” Jules Michel Marie Truffault enjoyed many successes. It produces carts which meet with a very favorable response from the public and which are the subject of laudatory articles in the specialized press.

The spring suspension that he designed at the very beginning of the 20th century was an economic success. It equips the cars of the Peugeot company and its victories in competition give it considerable publicity.

In the work of JMM Truffault, the bicycle is not completely forgotten as evidenced by the suspension patent below filed in the USA in June 1905. In the technical note which accompanies the sketch, we learn that JMM Truffault, engineer is domiciled 51, avenue des Ternes in the 17th arrondissement of Paris. Why a patent filing in the USA? In 1898, an American car enthusiast would have noticed the suspension system mounted by JMM Truffault on a bicycle participating in a long-distance race in Versailles. Convinced of the automotive interest of this invention, Edward Hartford of Orange, New Jersey, used the said patent rights for the United States and he created his suspension manufacturing company.

Jules Michel Marie Truffault died in the 17th arrondissement of Paris on October 3, 1920.

Sports photography, Year 1901 / Jules Beau http://gallica.bnf.fr Although almost totally forgotten today, Jules Truffault occupies an important place in the history of the bicycle. After being the originator of the fork and hollow rims, he continued throughout his life to research and develop new improvements for the bicycle. His research on suspensions is remarkable and they alone deserve that we take a little more interest in this character and all of his work.

====ref name="Spader Cycle History".... Spader - The big bi

We then try to make the velocipede faster. Since the pedals were attached to either side of the front wheel hub, the diameter of this drive wheel had to be increased to increase the distance traveled with each pedal stroke. Then the diameter of the front wheel will continue to increase while that of the rear wheel diminishes its role being limited to allowing the balance of the whole. Thus was born the big bi in the 1870s.

Le grand bi Large bike (wood) - Penny Farthing

Then the large wooden bi was replaced by the large steel bi. Around 1875, the French Jules Truffault lightened rims and forks by making them hollow from a decommissioned stock of saber scabbards and built a machine by replacing the heavy wooden spokes with tensioned metal spokes.

In 1881, the large bi reached almost perfection and weighed for racing models 10 to 11 kilograms!

However, the hypertrophy of the front wheel (we will arrive at wheels 3 meters in diameter!) Poses safety problems. That the first specimens, wanting to escape the balancing act of the big bi, called themselves safety or safety bicycles, confirms the extent to which the fear of falls imposed the need for machines closer to the ground.

 * In 1903 the factory was producing further engines mounted in the centre of strengthened bicycle frames, and by 1905 was offering other models fitted with a new Truffault design of sprung front forks. 1905 was also when the business was incorporated as Edoardo Bianchi & Co and, thereafter, turnover dramatically multiplied year by year as the company produced ever-increasing numbers of cycles, motor cycles and automobiles.

Helena Wanda Błażusiakówna (born circa 1937,) was a Polish girl from the vicinity of Zakopane, a town in the far south of Poland. She was a member of the Góral ("mountain dweller") community, which spanned the border with Czeckoslovakia in the Tatra mountains.

During the Nazi occupation of Poland during World War 11, on September 26, 1944, the 18 year old was arrested and held in the Gestapo headquarters in Zakopane. During her imprisonment she scratched a short prayer in the wall of cell number 3, which was subsequently discovered by the Polish composer Henryk Górecki and set to music as the second movement of his Symphony No. 3 'Sorrowful Songs'.

After the July 22, 1946 assassination attempt by the Irgun on the King David Hotelin Jerusalem, he sent a situation report to the French Ministry of Foreign Affairs on July 24.

Early in January 1928, Duchamp said that he could no longer bear the responsibility and confinement of marriage, and they were soon divorced.

Lafitte
Lafitte (automobile) The Lafitte was a French automobile manufactured in Paris from 1923-1928. The 'SA de Construction de Voiturettes Th. Lafitte', owned by Theodore Laffitte, manufactured a light cycle-car which was renowned for its innovative engineering. It incorporated a three cylinder radial engine mounted in a hinged cage, which was tilted by the driver to engage and vary the ratio of the friction drive to the rear wheels. Uniquely, the friction drive consisted of a convex steel flywheel and a concave 'clutch plate' that was faced by wound strips of paper or sometimes leather.

===History

The company began constructing automobiles in Paris in 1923 on The Quai. In 1926 Lafitte started using the manufacturing facility of the defunct Doriot, Flandrin & Parant. In 1928 it ceased production.

===Models

The Lafitte was an unconventional car. It was powered by 3 cylinder radial engine o 736cc capacity

The Ceirano brothers (Giovanni Battista, Giovanni & Matteo) were all significant figures in the early years of the Italian automotive industry.



The first company to bear their name was founded by the eldest brother, Giovanni Battista, at Turin in 1866 to built bicycles. In 1898 this company was renamed 'Ceirano & C' and in the following year the first car, a 3.5HP two cylinder Welleyes design, emerged. In that same year Ceirano sold his company to a group of investors who formed the Fabbrica Italiana Automobili Torino (or FIAT). He remained in the new company for around one year, after which he left and, together with his brother (Matteo), founded a new company 'Fratelli Ceirano', again at Turin. In 1903 Matteo left and formed 'Matteo Ceirano & C', still in the same street whilst in 1904 Givanni Battista wound up the 'Fratelli Ceirano' concern and formed STAR (Societa Torinese Automobili Rapid).

1904 saw Matteo's company renamed 'Matteo Ceirano & C - Vetture Marca Itala', otherwise known as Itala. Matteo left this latter company the following year in order to form, together with Ansaldi, a company called Ceirano-Ansaldi which then led to the formation of SPA in 1906.

Going back to 1904 and the next brother, Giovanni, founded 'Ceirano Junior & C', again in Turin. The following year saw the name change to 'Junior Fabbrica Torinese Automobili'. In 1906 it employed around 50 workers and produced 130 cars. That year also saw Giovanni leave the company to found SCAT. After the first world war Giovanni and his son, Ernesto, founded 'S.A. Giovanni Ceirano'. After a few years of competition Giovanni also took control of SCAT, and in 1925 the cars began to be built with the name 'Ceirano' replacing SCAT.

Hiallt
Hiallt (born c.920) was a Danish Norseman (Viking) who settled in Normandy, France in the 10th century, following the success of Rollo 1st Duke of Normandy and the Treaty of Saint-Clair-sur-Epte. He settled in the Cotentin Peninsula and founded the village of Hialtus Villa (Hauteville). By the 11th century Hauteville had also developed into the family name of his descendents, headed by his great grandson Tancred of Hauteville. The later generations of the Hauteville family went on to play a pivotal role in both Western European and Middle Eastern life that still resonates in contemporary geopolitics.

==Ancestors

Hiallt was descended from the House of Ogier the Dane (aka Holgar "Danske"), his great great great great great grandfather who died in 817. He was also the great great great great great great grandson of King Gudfred of Denmark.

According to the genealogy charts in The British Chronicles by David Hughes, Hiallt was the son of Ivor; who was the son of Magnus; who was the son of Olaf; who was the son of Arailt (aka "Harald") died 856; who was the son of Hingmar (aka "Ivar"); who was the son of Sveide "The Sea King" or "The Viking" (died 832); who was the son of Ogier the Dane (aka Holgar "Danske") and his third wife Astritha, daughter of King Gudfred.

==Descendents

The sons and descendents of Hiallt's great grandson Tancred of Hauteville played a pivotal role in both Western European and Middle Eastern life that still resonates in contemporary geopolitics. They conquered firstly southern Italy (Norman conquest of southern Italy) - where Robert d'Hauteville, (known as Robert Guiscard), became Duke of Apulia and Calabria; they became rulers of Sicily - Roger I of Sicily; Roger II - King of Sicily; and were leaders of the Crusades against the Islamic world to restore Christian control of the Holy Land and grab more new lands. Tancred's grandson Bohemond I of Antioch (Prince of Taranto and Prince of Antioch) was a leader in the First Crusade, and Goffredo Malaterra bluntly states in the text De Rebus Gestis Rogerii Calabriae et Siciliae Comitis et Roberti Guiscardi Ducis fratris eius that he took the Cross with the intention of plundering and conquering Greek lands. Tancred's great-grandson, Tancred, Prince of Galilee, was also a leader in the First Crusade.

Pete St John
Fame & fortune: Pete St John I'm only rich to the tune of €300 says the songwriter who claims that he has never made a mint from his music, even though his work endures

Gabrielle Monaghan May 1 2011, 1:01am, The Sunday Times

&#8216;People don&#8217;t want to pay for music any more,&#8217; says St John (Fergal Phillips) ‘People don’t want to pay for music any more,’ says St John (Fergal Phillips) Share Save When Dubliner Pete St John wrote The Fields of Athenry in 1979, after reading a story about a young man deported from east Galway to Australia for stealing corn for his family, he never imagined it would become an anthem for millions of football and rugby fans.

Royalties still trickle in from the song, adopted by Republic of Ireland supporters during the 1990 World Cup and by Celtic fans in Glasgow later that decade, and others such as The Rare Ould Times. But St John finds himself, in his mid-seventies, at the mercy of the twin pressures of the decline of the music business and the recession.

St John, born Peter Mooney, attended Scoil Mhuire Gan Smal in Inchicore and Synge Street CBS, before working around Ireland as an electrician and emigrating to Canada. After stints as a truck driver and logging camp labourer in the Americas, he became an electrical contracting executive in the US.

He became involved in the civil rights and peace movements before returning to Dublin in the late 1970s.

Faced with a city utterly changed, St John was inspired to write songs about the social and physical transformations he saw. His songs became popular with Ireland’s best-known performers of the day, including the Dubliners and Paddy Reilly.

The Fields of Athenry has even been adopted by Liverpool supporters, who chose the song in 2009 to commemorate the 20th anniversary of the Hillsborough disaster, in which 96 fans were crushed to death. A documentary about the ballad, made by Noel Pearson, the producer of My Left Foot, was shown on RTE in December.

St John dismisses any notion that the song, sung by Celtic supporters amid sectarian clashes with Rangers fans, has any republican undertones.

“I go over to Celtic games and know the head guys over there, but as far as I’m concerned, the Fields is a song set in famine times,” he said. “I’ve been involved in marking the National Famine Memorial Day on May 15 for the past six years. We walk from the Garden of Remembrance to the Jeanie Johnston boat and do a few songs.”

St John, who lives on the northside of Dublin, still writes every day. In 2008, he penned a country-and-western-style ditty called the Never Drink and Drive Song, which was launched by the Road Safety Authority and has since been used in anti-drink-driving campaigns in America and Australia. The songwriter will host a celebration of 30 years of The Fields of Athenry at the National Concert Hall on May 8.

How much money do you normally carry in your wallet?

About €300. Maybe it’s my age, but I think cash always has its own message.

What credit cards do you use?

I use a MasterCard. I pay it off religiously.

Are you a saver or a spender?

Probably a spender. Like most people, I like to be free to do a bit of travel, and I like a decent meal so I go to the best places to have it. I travel to America about twice a year and go to some of the big music festivals in Europe, mostly to keep up with what’s new.

Do you buy shares?

No, I never have. I don’t believe in them. Look at what happened to all those people who bought bank shares.

Have you ever been really hard up or broke?

Yeah, a couple of times in the past. You just survive it and move on. I felt it was tough when I emigrated to Canada in 1960 and I was waiting a year for a visa to the States. I left Ireland with just $70 (€47) and a master electrician’s card in my pocket. It was very rough up there in Canada, and there were a lot of Irish, Scots and Brits.

I ended up playing semi-professional football and having semi-forgettable jobs such as being a bottle washer in a brewery.

Do you own property?

No, I don’t. I have on occasion. I wasn’t tempted during the boom because I always felt there was something wrong when I would meet tradesmen and they were buying a second home in Portugal.

It wasn’t that I was super smart — just a bit cautious.

What was your first job and how much were you paid?

I was delivering messages for a butcher in Inchicore after school when I was 14. I got two shillings, and there was a lot of spending in that. They were the rare old times. Once I got my inter cert, I went to the technical school on Kevin Street, got a scholarship and did an indentured apprenticeship as an electrician. I didn’t emigrate because I had to, though things were rough in Dublin. I wanted to experience a bit of the world.

What is the most lucrative work you have ever done?

Songwriting. The Rare Ould Times and The Ferryman were never going to make me hugely rich, but nobody forced me to become a songwriter. The Fields of Athenry, now that will keep on churning along. It’s nice to pick up the odd cheque for €50 or €100 for it. But I’m never going to be able to run out and buy a Mercedes.

What is the worst thing to have happened to you financially?

A couple of business ventures that went sideways on me in the States back in the 1970s. I’d rather not say what they were.

I was a bit naive and I got sucked in and found out I shouldn’t have done that.

Have you ever seen people spend money in a way that shocked you?

Like every other person who is worried about everyday expenses, I find it scandalous that bankers are leaving with these payments and pensions. It’s very upsetting. We’ve all become aware of it, but will the new government do anything about it? I just returned from a month in the US and I found the same kind of mental downer there. All that American gung-ho attitude is on hold.

Do you manage your own financial affairs?

I do. It’s always complicated. There’s always a trickle of royalties coming in, but the income is marginal. People don’t want to pay for music any more. Talking to other songwriters and musicians, I hear a lot of moaning, but it’s a business like any other business.

What was your best investment?

The airline ticket I bought to move to Canada. In those days, you used to pay down a few quid and pay in instalments.

I don’t think I ever paid the rest.

What was your worst investment?

The business ventures I invested in when I was in America.

Have you been affected by the recession?

Absolutely. My earnings from royalties have virtually gone and concert tickets have been affected by the decline in people’s disposable income. The punter has less money to spend because after he buys the necessities, pays the mortgage, the ESB and puts money into running his car, he’s lucky to have a couple of quid left over to buy a few jars and a concert ticket. There was a time I would never worry about whether a concert hall would fill. But now I appreciate when somebody pays to buy a seat to listen to me and I have to accept the market the way it is.

What is the most important lesson you have learnt about money?

Think twice. Because once it’s gone it’s gone.

Two truly pioneer motor races had been run beside the river Seine in Paris as early as 1887 and 1888, organised by Paul Faussier (or ‘Fossier', of the La Vélocipède cycling magazine. The Count de Dion won the first, but his little steam-engined quadricycle was the only starter. Fossier/Faussier persevered, and in 1888 a second ‘La Vélocipède’-sponsored horseless-carriage race was run – this time from Neuilly to Versailles (20kms – 12.4 miles). This time it attracted two starters; the Count de Dion winning again, this time in a three-wheeler, defeating a Serpollet – both steam-powered.

This is certainly what the original wikitext Anchor syntax was designed to do in text but images are rendered as &lt;div>s where the &lt;div>shave all sorts of css style properties like float:right hidden in their class structures which will get the [[#Anchor syntax processing engine confused.
