Friedrich Adolph Roemer

Friedrich Adolph Roemer (15 April 1809 – 25 November 1869), German geologist, was born at Hildesheim, in the Kingdom of Westphalia.

His father was a lawyer and councillor of the high court of justice. In 1845 he became professor of mineralogy and geology at Clausthal, and in 1862 named director of the School of Mines. He first described the Cretaceous and Jurassic strata of Germany in elaborate works entitled Die Versteinerungen des Norddeutschen Oolith-Gebirges ("Fossils of the North German oolith formations"; 1836–39), Die Versteinerungen des Norddeutschen Kreidegebirges ("Fossils of the North German chalk formations"; 1840–41) and Die Versteinerungen des Harzgebirges ("Fossils of the Harz Mountains"; 1843). He died in Clausthal.

The mineral romerite commemorates his name, as does Roemeriana, a publication issued by the Institute of Geology at the Bergakademie in Clausthal from 1954 to 1964. His students included Albrecht von Groddeck.

His younger brother, Carl Ferdinand von Roemer, was also a geologist.

Talk:Floating exchange rate

Swiss Franc Peg
Article: "The Swiss franc was formerly traded via a floating exchange rate but as of September 2011, has its floor pegged to the euro."

The swiss franc is no longer pegged to the Euro as of Jan 2015 (Reuters) Can anybody reflect that in the article? I'm not sure how to do it?

Currency flow
Fixed exchange rates attract floating ones, no? Competition and all that. --Ihope127 23:34, 22 July 2005 (UTC)

Canada so special after all?
Article: "Canada is the only country whose currency's value is determined absolutely and entirely by the foreign exchange market;"

Website cited: "Canada's current policy is to intervene in foreign exchange markets on a discretionary, rather than a systematic, basis and only in the most exceptional of circumstances. ... Foreign exchange market intervention is conducted by the Bank of Canada, acting as agent for the federal government, using the government's holdings of foreign currencies in the Exchange Fund Account."

It seems that Canada is like most other economies with floated currencies: shunning intervention until necessary. Hence, I have deleted what I quoted above. 124.189.69.206 (talk) 08:38, 16 June 2008 (UTC)

What Economists Think - Circular Argument
The following phrase is in the current article:-

"Economists generally think that, in most circumstances, floating exchange rates are preferable to fixed exchange rates because floating rates are responsive to the foreign exchange market."

This is really just saying that economists think floating exchange rates are preferable because they are floating. It is a circular argument and hardly encyclopedic. Does anybody want to improve it? If not then I will remove it. Terjepetersen 11:04, 2 May 2006 (UTC)

Inflation targeting
The article completely ignores the fact that most central banks do not simply let the exchange rate float. Instead they focus directly on keeping the inflation stable and then let the exchange rate absorb external shocks. This implies using the interest rate actively to react to shocks. Buying and selling your own currency is generally considered a very bad idea for obvious reasons. MartinDK 16:23, 19 October 2006 (UTC)
 * The article should discuss a pure floating exchange rate. You are correct in your first statement, but that is actually called a managed float exchange rate. Also, what's wrong with the purchase/sale of currency? As far as I know, most central banks actively participate in this activity, though less than they would under Fixed exchange rates. SweetNightmares (talk) 00:34, 8 December 2009 (UTC)

Merging of Floating exchange rate and Floating currency and

 * They're similar, Floating exchange rate is the kind of exchange rate, and floating currency is a kind of currency. They are both based on the exact same principle, so I can see why some might want it moved.  I'd go with Floating exchange rate to be filed under Floating currency.  Can they both have bold definitions on the same page?  They aren't entirely synonymous.Xetxo (talk) 04:51, 15 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Support, under the condition that Floating currency actually be merged into Floating exchange rate instead. This is what happened with the article "Fixed currency" and Fixed exchange rate. I think fixed/floating exchange rates are referred to a lot more (at least in the study of economics) than their respective currencies. —Preceding unsigned comment added by SweetNightmares (talk • contribs) 00:26, 8 December 2009 (UTC)

Carpi, Emilia-Romagna

Carpi (Chèrp) is an Italian town and comune of about 71,000 inhabitants in the province of Modena, Emilia-Romagna. It is a busy centre for industrial and craft activities and for cultural and commercial exchanges.

History
The name Carpi is derived from carpinus 'hornbeam', a tree particularly widespread in medieval times in the Po Valley region. In prehistoric times it was a settlement of the Villanovan Culture.

The foundation by the Lombard king Aistulf of St. Mary's Church in the castle (Castrum Carpi) in 752 was the first step in the current settlement of the city. From 1319 to 1525, it was ruled by the Pio family, after whom it was acquired by the Este, as part of the Duchy of Modena.

The city received a Silver Medal for Military Valour in recognition of its participation in the resistance against the German occupation during World War II.

The town has one of the largest squares in all Italy (3rd place), the heart of the city, Piazza dei Martiri. It is surrounded by the castle, the cathedral, the town hall, and a portico with 52 arches. Usually every Thursday and Saturday the square hosts the local market.

Carpi used to be the finishing point of the annual Italian Marathon, which begins in nearby Maranello. Almost 1000 athletes enter the senior men's and women's race which has been held every year since 1988 in honor of Dorando Pietri, a long distance runner born in Carpi that lost his Olympic Gold Medal for being helped to stand up after a fall near the finish line.  The area was crippled in the earthquakes of May 2012.

Title
As a titular Duke of Modena, the current holder of the title of "Prince of Carpi" would be Prince Lorenz of Belgium, Archduke of Austria-Este.

Geography
Located in the northern area of its province, at the borders with Reggio Emilia, Carpi borders with the municipalities of Campogalliano, Cavezzo, Correggio (RE), Fabbrico (RE), Modena, Novi di Modena, Rio Saliceto (RE), Rolo (RE), San Prospero and Soliera.

It counts the hamlets (frazioni) of Budrione, Cantone di Gargallo, Cibeno Pile, Cortile, Fossoli, Gargallo, Lama di Quartirolo, Migliarina, Osteriola, San Marino, San Martino Secchia and Santa Croce.

Carpi is distinguished by its great Renaissance square (piazza), called Piazza Martiri https://www.tripadvisor.com/Attraction_Review-g670816-d4380076-Reviews-Piazza_dei_Martiri-Carpi_Province_of_Modena_Emilia_Romagna.html the largest in the region. It is flanked by a portico with 52 columns.

Liberty (1881–1908 periodical)

Liberty was a 19th-century anarchist market socialist and libertarian socialist periodical published in the United States by Benjamin Tucker from August 1881 to April 1908.

It was instrumental in developing and formalizing the American individualist anarchist market socialist philosophy, publishing essays and serving as a format for debate.

Contributors included Tucker, Lysander Spooner, Auberon Herbert, Dyer Lum, Joshua K. Ingalls, John Henry Mackay, Victor Yarros, Wordsworth Donisthorpe, James L. Walker, J. William Lloyd, Voltairine de Cleyre, Steven T. Byington, John Beverley Robinson, Jo Labadie and Henry Appleton. Its masthead featured a quote from Pierre-Joseph Proudhon, that liberty is "Not the Daughter But the Mother of Order".

Purpose
Benjamin Tucker was an American individualist anarchist and made it clear that the purpose of the journal was to further his point of view, saying in the first issue: "The journal will be edited to suit its editor, not its readers. He hopes that what suits him will suit them; but, if not, it will make no difference. No subscriber, or body of subscribers, will be allowed to govern his course, dictate his policy, or prescribe his methods. Liberty is published for the very definite purpose of spreading certain ideas, and no claim will be admitted, on any pretext of freedom of speech, to waste its limited space in hindering the attainment of that object. We are not afraid of discussion, and shall do what we can to make room for short, serious, and well-considered objection to our views."

However, the journal did become a forum for argumentation about diverse views and Tucker credited both Josiah Warren and the social anarchist Proudhon as influences for Liberty. Tucker said of Proudhon: "Liberty is a journal brought into existence almost as a direct consequences of the teachings of Proudhon" (Liberty I). He later said that Liberty was "the foremost organ of Josiah Warren's doctrines" (Liberty IX).

Tucker was also involved with the formation of the American branch of the International Working People’s Association with Liberty chosen as the English language representative of the Socialistic Revolutionary Congress of 1881.

Revival
In 1974, an attempt to revive Tucker's Liberty was undertaken by some of Laurance Labadie's associates. Edited by Earl Foley and Walter Carroll, it billed itself as "The Revival of Liberty". The first issue contained articles by Labadie, Lynne Farrow and Earl Foley. Its editorial says: "We align ourselves with the Individualist Anarchist tradition of Josiah Warren and Benjamin Tucker". However, the revival did not survive past the first issue.

In 2007, mutualist archivist Shawn P. Wilbur used microfiche obtained from Libertarian Microfiche Publishing to release the first full-text digital archive of Liberty.

Mount Temple Comprehensive School

Mount Temple Comprehensive School is a secondary school in Clontarf, Dublin, Ireland. The school operates under the patronage of the Church of Ireland Archbishop of Dublin, and has, as a primary objective, the provision of state-funded second-level education to the Protestant population of northern Dublin, while accepting pupils of all religions and none. The school was established in 1972 following the amalgamation of Mountjoy School, Royal Hibernian Marine School in coastal Clontarf, and Bertrand & Rutland School.

Students
Mount Temple Comprehensive School had about 450 students when it opened in 1972, which rose to over 700 students in the 1980-90s and from 2010 to 2020 had almost 900 students, and rising.

Facilities
The school operates from several buildings, the main house being a protected structure. In addition to science laboratories and IT space, the school had for many years a substantial lending and reference library with two paid staff and a rota of parent volunteers, and while the collection had to be moved to make space for teaching, the library room hosted a talk by Bono in late 2022. External facilities include a number of on-premises pitches and courts.

There have been plans for many years for a new school building to be added onsite to cater for the extra students, whose numbers are otherwise leading to pressure on space and loss of other facilities to additional classroom need; as of 2022, there is no spare classroom space, nor changing rooms for sport. In 2017, the Department of Education and Skills commissioned a major architectural firm, Wejchert, to design a new main school building, and they assembled a full construction project team. After Covid-related delays, in October 2020, in response to the last application, the city council planning inspector recommended planning permission be granted, despite some local objections, clearing the way to build a three-storey school building that could accommodate one thousand students. This building, in excess of 10,000 sq. metres, will replace most of the non-protected school buildings.

Three schools
Hibernian Marine School was a charity school founded in 1766, originally to provide for the orphans and children of seamen. The school was originally located in Ringsend, and moved to a new premises on Sir John Rogerson's Quay in 1773. In 1904 it moved to Seafield Road in Clontarf, where the Seacourt estate now stands.

Mountjoy School was a boarding school in Mountjoy Square (in the same building was the Incorporated Society for Promoting Protestant Schools), founded in 1896. It later moved to the current location in Clontarf in 1948.

Bertrand & Rutland School was in Eccles Street on the northside of Dublin. It was a Church of Ireland School, which was itself formed by a 1947 merger of Rutland School and Bertrand High school, the latter of which was in turn formed by the amalgamation of Bethesda Female Orphan School and Bertrand Female Orphan School in 1943. The Bertrand and Rutland Fund still funds scholarships to Protestant schools in Ireland.

Amalgamations
Hibernian Marine School amalgamated with Mountjoy School in 1968 and became Mountjoy & Marine School. The school later amalgamated with Bertrand & Rutland and took the name of Mount Temple Comprehensive School in 1972.

Site
Mount Temple was once a residence for the agent of the Earl of Charlemont. The present house was built by the magistrate J. C. Stronge in 1860, and was a family home to Elizabeth Bowen. For a period, the estate was owned by Thomas Picton-Bradshaw and known as Bradshaws. Mountjoy School then took possession in 1949 prior to the merger that formed Mount Temple Comprehensive.

Popular culture
Mount Temple was the school where the rock band U2 was formed. In September 1976, 14-year-old drummer Larry Mullen Jr. posted a notice on the school's noticeboard, looking for fellow musicians. All four members of U2 are former pupils of the school.

Christopher Nolan's autobiographical novel Under the Eye of the Clock, which won the Whitbread Award, is based around his time in Mount Temple. The school now awards "Eye of the Clock Awards" for contributions to school life and academic achievement.

Summer activities onsite
During the summer months the whole school facility is used by the Centre of English Studies (CES), catering for hundreds of international students who come to Dublin to learn English.

Crimes of the Future (1970 film)

Crimes of the Future is a 1970 Canadian science fiction film written, shot, edited and directed by David Cronenberg. Like Cronenberg's previous feature, Stereo, Crimes of the Future was shot silent with a commentary added afterwards, spoken by the character Adrian Tripod (Ronald Mlodzik).

Although the film shares its title with Cronenberg's 2022 film of the same name, the latter is not a remake as the story and concept are unrelated, however there is a loose connection between the two films, as the main premise of the 2022 film, "creative cancer" also appears in the 1970 version.

Plot
Set in 1997, the film follows Adrian Tripod, an occasional director of the House of Skin, a dermatological clinic. He embarks on a quest to find his mentor, the insane dermatologist Antoine Rouge. Rouge has vanished after a devastating plague, caused by cosmetic products, wiped out all sexually mature women. Allegedly the virus mutated, now affecting men and claiming Rouge's life.

Tripod joins a succession of organisations, including Metaphysical Import-Export and the Oceanic Podiatry Group, and meets various individuals and groups of men trying to adjust themselves to a defeminized world. When a House of Skin patient that Tripod had grown close to dies from the plague, Tripod checks into a mental health clinic and engages in foot fetishism.

Tripod aligns with a group of pedophiles who kidnap a five-year-old girl who has been exposed to chemicals intended to force her into puberty in order to impregnate her. However, one of the group is ultimately unable to bring himself to rape the young girl and leaves her untouched. Tripod enters the room where the girl is kept and sees the girl emit a cream-like white foam from her mouth. This brings him to the realization that, by artificially inducing puberty in the young child, she has become infected with the plague.

Cast

 * Ronald Mlodzik as Adrian Tripod
 * Jon Lidolt
 * Tania Zolty
 * Paul Mulholland
 * Jack Messinger
 * Iain Ewing
 * William Haslam
 * Brian Linehan
 * Raymond Woodley (credited as Ray Woodley)

Production
Cronenberg used an Arriflex 35 that he gained from a deferred rental from Janet Good at the Canadian Motion Picture Equipment Rental Company. The film was shot without synchronized sound due to the noise of the Arriflex 35. The title is a reference to a character writing a book of the same name in Hunger by Knut Hamsun.

Cronenberg started filming Crimes of the Future before his previous film, Stereo, was released. It was shot at Massey College and the University of Toronto from August 1969 to 10 February 1970, on a budget of $15,000. The film received funding from the Canadian Film Development Corporation and International Film Archives.

Reception
Kim Newman, in his 1988 book Nightmare Movies, has described Crimes of the Future as being "more fun to read about in synopsis than to watch", and as proving, along with Stereo, that "it's possible to be boring and interesting at the same time".

The film has a score of 50% from six reviews on Rotten Tomatoes, with an average rating of 5.8/10.

Release
The film was released on LaserDisc in Japan and included on the LaserDisc release of Dead Ringers. It was included as an extra in the 2004 DVD release of Fast Company.

Crooked spire

A crooked spire, (also known as a twisted spire) is a tower showing a twist and/or a deviation from the vertical. A church tower usually consists of a square stone tower topped with a pyramidal wooden structure, the spire is usually cladded with slates or lead to protect the wood. Through accident or design the spire may contain a twist, or it may not point perfectly straight upwards. Some however have been built or rebuilt with a deliberate twist, generally as a design choice.

There are about a hundred bell towers of this type in Europe.

Reasons for spires to twist and bend
Twisting can be caused by internal or external forces. Internal conditions, such as green or unseasoned wood, can cause some twisting until after about 50 years when fully seasoned. Also the weight of any lead used in construction can cause the wood to twist. Dry wood will shrink, causing further movement.

External forces, such as water ingress that causes rot, can cause partial collapse, resulting in tilting. Heat from the sun on one side can also cause movement. Earthquakes have also occasionally caused twisting. Subsidence can cause leaning. Strong winds have been blamed at times, but there is little evidence to back this up. Finally, weak design can be at fault, for instance with a lack of cross-bracing, resulting in the ability of the tower to move.

One legend relating to Chesterfield says that a virgin once married in the church, and the church was so surprised that the spire turned around to look at the bride. Another version of the myth common in Chesterfield is that the devil twisted the spire when a virgin married in the church, saying that he would untwist it when the next virgin got married there. A third myth says that the devil perched on the spire and twisted his tail around it to hold on, the twist of his tail transmitting to the structure.

World Group Securities

World Group Securities (WGS) is an American broker-dealer that provides exclusive services to World Financial Group a multi-level marketing financial and insurance services company. WGS is a subsidiary of the Dutch-owned AEGON insurance Group. WGS has been involved in a number of lawsuits with state regulators alleging the selling of unsuitable products to elderly people.

History
World Group Securities was incorporated in Delaware, USA on February 6, 2001, in order to replace World Marketing Alliance Securities (WMAS) as servicing broker-dealer when AEGON bought out the book of business generated by World Marketing Alliance (WMA) and reassigned it to the newly created World Financial Group.

Business and operations
WGS is registered with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) to sell securities through World Financial Group (WFG) associates in all 50 states plus Washington, D.C. and Puerto Rico under the Central Registration Depository (CRD) number 114473. Its U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) number is 8-53428. WGS allows only properly licensed and registered WFG representatives to represent it.

Its registered types of business include:

 * 1) Broker or dealer selling corporate debt securities (for example, bonds)
 * 2) Broker or dealer retailing corporate stocks over-the-counter
 * 3) Government securities broker
 * 4) Mutual fund retailer, some of which are affiliated with WGS
 * 5) Municipal bonds broker
 * 6) Non-exchange member arranging for transactions in listed securities by exchange member
 * 7) Broker or dealer selling variable life insurance contracts or annuities, some of which are affiliated with WGS

Lawsuits
Some state securities officials, including those in Iowa, Alabama, Missouri, Utah, and Minnesota, have filed lawsuits to bar inappropriate sales practices by World Financial Group (WFG) and World Group Securities (WGS). In addition, a number of customers have filed private arbitration claims.
 * A 2004 National Association of Securities Dealers (NASD) disciplinary action report summarized disciplinary actions against WGS. According to the report, WGS "submitted a Letter of Acceptance, Waiver, and Consent in which the firm was censured and fined $15,000. Without admitting or denying the allegations, the firm consented to the described sanctions and to the entry of findings that the firm permitted representatives to act in registered capacities while their registrations were inactive due to their failure to satisfy the Regulatory Element of NASD's Continuing Education Requirements. NASD also found that the firm failed to establish and maintain a supervisory system reasonably designed to assure compliance with the Regulatory Element of the Continuing Education Requirement by its registered representatives."
 * In December 2006, WGS and one of its brokers were fined $150,000 by Missouri's commissioner of securities for selling unsuitable products to elderly people.  Other cases of private arbitration "where variable annuities were allegedly sold to people too old to realize any benefit before they died" were also reported.  Utah’s Division of Securities has cited at least four WGS brokers since 2006.
 * In April 2007, WGS was fined $50,000 for failing to supervise representatives in Utah who were misrepresenting their credentials and services rendered during free lunch seminars targeting seniors.
 * In June 2007, a couple filed an NASD arbitration claim against WGS, alleging misrepresentation that caused them to lose over $500,000 on investment products that were unsuitable for their risk tolerance. A judge sided with the couple and forced the company into arbitration over the proceedings, and a settlement was reached.
 * In April 2010, WGS was fined in excess of $850,000 as the result of the unauthorized sale of private securities by some of its agents in the State of Arizona.
 * In May 2010, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) filed a federal case against two former brokers of WGS, accusing them of having raised approximately $14,800,000 through the offer and sale of promissory notes as part of an illegal Ponzi scheme in Ohio and Florida between September 2005 and December 2008.
 * In November 2010, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) ordered WGS to pay, among other things, a civil monetary penalty in the amount of $200,000 for the fraudulent selling of unsuitable securities in the State of California, which were funded using home equity derived from refinancing the customers' homes into subprime mortgages.

Server application programming interface

In computing, server application programming interface (SAPI) is the direct module interface to web servers such as the Apache HTTP Server, Microsoft IIS, and Oracle iPlanet Web Server. In other words, SAPI is an application programming interface (API) provided by the web server to help other developers in extending the web server capabilities.

Microsoft uses the term Internet Server Application Programming Interface (ISAPI), and the defunct Netscape web server used the term Netscape Server Application Programming Interface (NSAPI) for the same purpose.

As an example, PHP has a direct module interface called SAPI for different web servers; in the case of PHP 5 and Apache 2.0 on Windows, it is provided in the form of a DLL file called php5apache2.dll, which is a module that, among other functions, provides an interface between PHP and the web server, implemented in a form that the server understands. This form is what is known as a SAPI.

Different kinds of SAPIs exist for various web-server extensions. For example, in addition to those listed above, other SAPIs for the PHP language include the Common Gateway Interface (CGI) and command-line interface (CLI).

Disclaimer of interest

In the law of inheritance, wills and trusts, a disclaimer of interest (also called a renunciation) is an attempt by a person to renounce their legal right to benefit from an inheritance (either under a will or through intestacy) or through a trust. "If a trustee disclaims an interest in property that otherwise would have become trust property, the interest does not become trust property."

There are a number of reasons why a person might wish to avoid an inheritance, particularly if the proceeds would only go to their creditors, or if it would drastically affect their income tax liabilities. Under the common law, a person who disclaimed their interest would be treated as though they had died before the trust or will came into effect. This was a sensible option if the disclaiming party was an heir by descent, whose own children would then take in his place and without the imposition of a gift tax.

The disclaimer must be in writing and submitted to the court overseeing the disposition of the estate within a legally specified time period, which is usually nine months after the death of the person from whom the disclaiming party stands to inherit, or twelve months after the creation of a trust by a living person. An affidavit may be required in which the disclaiming party must swear that he has not received any consideration (i.e., compensation) for the disclaimer. The disclaimer must also occur before the disclaiming party has enjoyed any benefits of the trust or inheritance. Many jurisdictions now have statutes that prohibit a disclaimer when the individual is insolvent or receiving certain public benefits due to low income.

A disclaimer of interest is irrevocable. It must be a complete, and not a partial disclaimer. Such a disclaimer can be made by a legal guardian on behalf of a person who lacks the capacity to make the disclaimer themselves, but this usually requires the finding by a court that the disclaimer is in the ward's best interest.

Disclaimers and deeds of variation: England and Wales
In England and Wales, a disclaimer is likewise irrevocable and covers the entire testamentary gift. It may be a unilateral act but should be communicated in writing to the persons administering the estate. It does not need to be registered with the court; the persons administering the estate are obliged to retain the communication as they may be required to provide an account to the court of their actions in the administration.

A similar effect to a disclaimer (including for inheritance tax and capital gains tax purposes) can be achieved with a greater degree of flexibility through the use of a "deed of variation" (or "deed of family arrangement"). A person or persons due to inherit property may enter into such a deed with the personal representatives (executors or administrators of an intestate estate) and redirect property due to the persons entering into the deed to whomsoever they wish. However, one cannot vary one's entitlement under a deed of variation. A deed of variation may be revocable or irrevocable. Disclaimers and deeds of variation may be overturned by the bankruptcy court and assets traced.

Disclaimer of other interests
In addition to the more typical disclaimer under wills, an individual may also be able to disclaim his interest as the beneficiary of a life insurance policy or employee benefit plans. It may also apply to concurrent interests in real property that automatically transfer after death by operation of law rather than by the rules of inheritance (such as joint tenancies or tenancies by the entirety).

Ferdinand von Roemer

Carl Ferdinand von Roemer (5 January 1818 – 14 December 1891), German geologist, had originally been educated for the legal profession at Göttingen, but became interested in geology, and abandoning law in 1840, studied science at the University of Berlin, where he graduated Ph.D. in 1842.

Two years later he published his first work, Das Rheinische Ubergangsgebirge (1844), in which he dealt with the older rocks and fossils. In 1845 he paid a visit to America, and devoted a year and a half to a careful study of the geology of Texas and other Southern states. He published at Bonn in 1849 a general work entitled Texas, while the results of his investigations of the Cretaceous rocks and fossils were published three years later in a treatise, Die Kreidebildungen von Texas und ihre organischen Einschlusse (1852), which also included a general account of the geology, and gained for him the title Father of the geology of Texas.

Subsequently, he published at Breslau Die Silurische Fauna des westlichen Tennessee (1860). During the preparation of these works he was from 1847 to 1855 privatdocent at Bonn, and was then appointed professor of geology, palaeontology and mineralogy in the University of Breslau, a post which he held with signal success as a teacher until his death.

As a palaeontologist he made important contributions to our knowledge especially of the vertebrates of the Devonian and older rocks. He assisted H. G. Bronn with the third edition of the Lethaea geognostica (1851–56), and subsequently he labored on an enlarged and revised edition, of which he published one section, Lethaea palaeozoica (1876-1883). In 1862 he was called on to superintend the preparation of a geological map of Upper Silesia, and the results of his researches were embodied in his Geologie von Oberschlesien (3 vols., 1870). As a mineralogist he was likewise well known, more particularly by his practical teachings and by the collection he formed in the Museum at Breslau. He died at Breslau on 14 December 1891.

His brother, Friedrich Adolph Roemer, was also a geologist.

Norway national cricket team

The Norway national cricket team is the team that represents Norway in international cricket matches. The Norwegian Cricket Board became an affiliate member of the International Cricket Council (ICC) in 2000, and the national side played its first international match later that year. Most of the side's matches have been against members of the European Cricket Council (ECC), although in more recent years Norway has fielded sides in the lower divisions of the World Cricket League (WCL). The team's current head coach is Muhammad Haroon, a former first-class player in Pakistan, who was appointed in early 2014. In 2017, they became an associate member.

History
Norwegian cricket was first organised in the 1960s by a few Asian immigrants and has grown to the current state of 55 clubs playing in five divisions.

Norway became a member of the International Cricket Council in 2000 and played in their first international tournament – the European Representative Championships in Austria – in that same year. They won the tournament without losing a game, but did not play again until 2003, when they took part in the ECC Trophy for the first time. They won this tournament too, again without losing a game. This qualified the team for a place in Division Two of the European Championship in 2004. They finished fourth in the six-team tournament, gaining wins against Gibraltar and Israel.

In 2005 Norway won the European Affiliates Championship, the equivalent of the ECC Trophy. They once again won the tournament without losing a game, and again qualified for Division Two of the European Championship in 2006. They won the tournament, beating debutants Jersey in the final after losing to them in the group stage. This gave Norway a place in Division One for the first time in 2008 and earned them a place in Division Five of the World Cricket League.

In May 2008, Norway travelled to Jersey to take part in the Division Five tournament. Although they beat Vanuatu in Group A, it was the team's only group stage win and with four loses they failed to make the semi-finals. Norway finished ninth overall after defeating the Bahamas and then Japan in positional playoff matches. With only the top two from this tournament qualifying for Division Four in Tanzania later in the year, Norway missed out on the chance to take their 2011 World Cup dream any further.

In July 2008, Norway met the top nations of European cricket when they participated in Division One of the European Championship. The Norwegians finished sixth overall in the six-team tournament, beaten convincingly in four of their matches – against Denmark, Ireland, the Netherlands, and Scotland – whilst their match against Italy was abandoned owing to rain.

In August 2009, Norway travelled to Singapore to compete in Division Six of the World Cricket League. They won only one of five group matches and finished sixth overall after losing a positional playoff to Botswana. As a result, Norway were relegated to Division Seven.

In May 2011, Norway travelled to Botswana for Division Seven of the World Cricket League and their relatively poor performances at ICC events continued as they finished fifth overall, although they did beat Japan in a group match and then a positional playoff. Fifth place saw Norway relegated to Division Eight of the World Cricket League.

However, by the end of year 2011 a drastic change in team performance was observed World Cricket League, mainly due to the inclusion of a number of new, younger, and fitter players. Under the captaincy of Rakesh the team went on to win several qualifying rounds and titles in games against higher or similarly ranked teams, such as Japan. In June 2012, in the World Cricket League, the team gained the top spot in the shortest format of the game, with amazing reformations in the field. This success won Norway a spot in another ICC qualifier event, potentially securing them a place in the T20 World Cup Competition.

In 2013 the team competed in the 2013 ICC European T20 Championship Division One in England where they finished in 8th place, securing wins over Sweden and Gibraltar.

In 2014, Norway started their tour with their first game being against Old Southendian and Southchurch cricket club on 21 June. They lost this T20 match by four runs.

2018-Present
In April 2018, the ICC decided to grant full Twenty20 International (T20I) status to all its members. Therefore, all Twenty20 matches played between Norway and other ICC members after 1 January 2019 will be a full T20I.

In September 2018, Norway qualified from Group C of the 2018–19 ICC World Twenty20 Europe Qualifier to the Regional Finals of the tournament.

The Norwegians played their first T20I match against Italy on 15 June 2019.

Massa Martana

Massa Martana (near the well attested ancient site of the Vicus Martis Tudertium on the Via Flaminia) is an ancient Italian town and comune in the Monti Martani mountain range in the province of Perugia (Umbria). It is 10 km N of Acquasparta, 18 km N of San Gemini and 32 km N of Narni; 14 km S of Bastardo and 27 km S of Bevagna. As of the 2003 census, the town had 3558 inhabitants.

It is one of the classic walled towns of central Italy, and in its main gate can be seen several ancient inscriptions, including a Roman one of some interest. The modern town has spread northwards along the road. It is one of I Borghi più belli d'Italia ("The most beautiful villages of Italy").

Territory
The territory of the commune includes three well-preserved Romanesque churches, each built in part of Roman stone in the abbeys of S. Fidenzio, of Santa Maria in Pantano and of San Faustino. The medieval abbey church of Santa Maria in Viepri was erected in the 12th century. The modern shrine at Colvalenza (6 km southwest) now draws pilgrims.

Other churches include:
 * Santa Maria della Concezione
 * Sant'Ippolito
 * San Giovanni Battista
 * Santuario della Madonna di Castelvecchio
 * San Pietro in Monte
 * Sant'Arnaldo
 * San Sebastiano
 * San Felice
 * Santa Maria della Pace
 * San Valentino
 * Sant'Ilario
 * Chiesa dell'Ascensione
 * Sant'Antonino de Castro
 * Santa Illuminata
 * San Pietro sopra le acque
 * Sant'Antonio del Busseto
 * Santa Maria delle Grazie
 * San Giovanni
 * Santa Degna
 * San Sebastiano
 * San Bernardino

Earthquake of 1997
The buildings of the walled town suffered major damage in an earthquake on May 12, 1997, a precursor of the 1997 earthquake which damaged much of Umbria, including the Basilica and city of Assisi. The Commune celebrated the completion of restoration works and the reopening of the old town in August 2006, ten years after the earthquake.

Culture
Massa Martana town has an annual ice-cream festival ("sagra del gelato") in early August each year. Similar food festivals are celebrated in summer months in a number of surrounding villages and hamlets within the commune, including Colpetrazzo and Villa San Faustino. During the Christmas period in Massa Martana is held a popular Christmas Exhibition, named "Presepi d'Italia" with Traditional Christmas Cribs and Art works: all dedicated to the Holy Nativity. The artworks are coming from all the Italian regions and are characterised by their local tradition and different culture.

Guildford School of Art was formed in 1856 as Guildford Working Men's Institution and was one of several schools of art run by Surrey County Council. After several mergers with tertiary art institutions it became part of the University for the Creative Arts in 2008.

Background
Before 1900 Britain was famous for its Arts and Crafts movement, a style of architecture and interior design practiced at the then School of Art, and which was influential on western design leading up to Modernism, the latter propounded in the German Bauhaus, particularly their use of a "Preliminary" course to change students' basic thinking. That was widely replicated in British art schools as a "Foundation" course. After World War II the British Government realized that British design was less popular than American and Swiss design.

History
The Guildford Working Men's Institute was a successor to the Guildford Institute which itself was formed on 14 June 1843 out of a union of the Mechanics' Institute founded in 1834 and the Literary and Scientific Institution, founded in 1835. By 1859 the Institute had 541 students. In 1892 the Guildford Institute and the Guildford Working Men's Institution were amalgamated under the title of the Guildford and Working Men's Institution offering both technical and art classes. The Guildford Institute and the Science, Art and Technical classes run by Surrey County Council separated in 1910. In 1939, the institution, then known as the School of Art, moved into Stoke Park Mansion.

The school had once enjoyed a reputation as a major centre of photographic excellence under the Head of Photography, Ifor Thomas. Among his students were Jane Bown, John Hedgecoe, John Cleare, and Ray Dean. Staff included Thurston Hopkins.

Guildford School of Art had a photography department and in 1957 was referred to as "Guildford School of Art and Photography". That year, students' work Portrait of a Town featuring the people and buildings of Guildford, was shown at the Royal Institute of British Architects in London. The School had a well-regarded complementary studies department headed by a fine artist and with many art historians, broadcast scriptwriters and published authors on the staff who taught students to think critically about the world around them. Alan Coleman, a sculptor, who had studied at Goldsmiths' College School of Art and the Royal College of Art, was Principal of Guildford School of Art from 1956 - 65.

In 1966 the school was inspected by the Summerson committee on behalf of the National Council for Diplomas in Art and Design (NCDAD) which was charged with deciding which art schools were capable of awarding degree-equivalent Diplomas in Art and Design. The committee concluded that Guildford School of Art would not be accredited to offer the Diplomas. Surrey County Council invited Professor Lewis Elton of the University of Surrey to assess the school independently. Elton reached the same conclusion as the Summerson committee. Surrey County Council then decided that the School would award a "Guildford Diploma". Students protested in 1968 about the quality of education at the School. A large number of the staff were dismissed.

In 1969 the School merged with Farnham College of Art to become the West Surrey College of Art and Design. The Epsom School of Art & Design and West Surrey College of Art & Design merged to form Surrey Institute of Art & Design in 1995. The Kent Institute of Art & Design and Surrey Institute of Art & Design and University College merged to form University College for the Creative Arts at Canterbury, Epsom, Farnham, Maidstone & Rochester in 2005. The University College for the Creative Arts at Canterbury, Epsom, Farnham, Maidstone & Rochester received its University Title from the Privy Council and was renamed the University for the Creative Arts in 2008.

Student unrest and staff dismissals
In 1968 student unrest began in response to underfunding, quality and qualifications of teachers, dissatisfaction with the principal, ceramicist Tom Arnold, and certification of graduate qualifications; the school offered a "Guildford Diploma", falsely believed to be a degree-level qualification. A 1969 brochure for 3D Design Dept. at Pewley described the Interior Design Dept. as offering a (WSCAD student 69–71) qualification affiliated to RIBA. Against a background of a period of student protest across Europe and America, students held a 'sit-in'. On 5 June the students occupied the refectory and spent many days writing a proposal to the principal Tom Arnold demanding changes. The proposal was backed by a majority of the staff, the students' parents and many eminent artists. Jack Straw, the newly elected President of the National Union of Students (NUS) and later Foreign Secretary visited the School and tried to persuade the students to end their protest. The support for the Guildford students by the NUS was limited but Straw would later help to raise the issue in the press.

As Tom Arnold was unable to contain the protest and end the sit-in, the Governors began issuing writs to the striking students on 11 June. Tom Arnold approached the students and offered to set up departmental panels to resolve the issue but students rejected the proposal.

On 3 July the staff held a meeting at an hotel near the School. The School Registrar accompanied by police entered uninvited and handed them writs requiring them to appear before a Judge on Monday 8 July. On 6 July the students locked the building and Council representatives shouted at them through a loudhailer to leave by 11:30. SCC sent letters to thirty four students warning them of consequences if they stayed. The students stayed. Questions began to be asked in the House of Commons. On 9 July a letter from a number of noted academic. writers and artists including David Hockney was published in the Times. It was the first of many and would eventually lead to the collapse of SCC's case and a Public Enquiry.

On 14 July the Chairman of the Governors offered to rescind the students' suspension if the students agreed to leave. The students stayed. SCC went to the High Court and asked for a temporary order that twenty nine of the students leave the School. It was refused because the request had not been made by the entire Council (many councillors were on holiday). All SCC members were recalled. On 29 July, after an eight-week sit-in, the students left the building. On 30 July Tony Heath asked amidst shouting how much ratepayers money had been spent on hiring security guards. He praised the students some of whom cheered him from the public gallery. The security guard company "Interstate Security" was an "off-the-shelf" company which was quickly wound up. The school reopened in the autumn of 1968.

A Select Committee enquiry was eventually launched in 1970 and the vice-Principal Bernard Brett, was dismissed. The Principal Tom Arnold became head of the united Guildford and Farnham Schools of Art.

Twenty-eight part-time teachers, including eight from the Complementary Studies department who had been teaching in the school since 1951, including its Head, John Kashdan, were informed on 8 August that their contracts would not be renewed, removing almost all Complementary Studies and Foundation Departments' teachers. Many were members of the Association of Teachers in Technical Institutions (ATTI). On 10 August, Eric Moonman MP for Billericay, made the first of what would become many appeals to the Education Secretary Edward Short to hold a public enquiry into the School.

On 14 August the Governors suspended seven of the Complementary Studies staff aligned with the students. A week later, students' parents formed their own committee to pressurize the SCC. Their leader Mr Colin Ferguson said "The students have been baulked at every step. They have behaved in an extremely democratic and constitutional way". The next day the Governors closed the building, but the students stayed in. The Governors installed security guards who having talked to the students, sided with them. One of the guards, James Teelan, said "We have just about had enough. The students are law-abiding citizens and are doing no harm … Our sympathies are now wholly with the students. They are causing no trouble … From what I can gather, the firm's idea was to build up the force of security men gradually and without the students suspecting, so that they could be ousted. I could not bring myself to be part of it". Councillor Tony Heath also sided with the students. Hampshire County Council, having withdrawn a £9-a-week grant from a student, Sally Williams, at the request of SCC, realized this might be illegal and restituted it. Fifty parents asked the Governors not to victimise students or staff. The Governors brought an injunction against the security guards and cut off the electricity to the college. The students hired a generator and remained on the premises.

On 16 August the ATTI echoed Moonman's appeal to Short. Short refused, but by 22 August the SCC realised that were the ATTI to boycott them, recruiting new staff to replace the forty-two dismissed staff would render them liable to union action. SCC then agreed to discuss the sackings in September. SCC had claimed that the sackings were due only to the need for economies but started to advertise for new staff in the Photographic department. By 19 September SCC were talking of an offer of compensation to the seven full-time staff who had been sacked. The School reopened but a student was told to stay away by SCC. Her parents were members of the parents association which had opposed the Governors and SCC. Tom Arnold reinstated her. SCC employed twenty-five new staff, none of whom was a member of the ATTI. In October the Guildford Trades Council added their voice to the growing demand for a public enquiry. By 12 October with the confirmation of the dismissal of the seven full-time staff by SCC, Jack Straw added to the call for a public enquiry. Sir John Summerson, chairman of the National Council for Diplomas in Art and Design found the decision to sack the staff "deplorable". By November the ATTI had blacklisted Guildford School of Art and was threatening to blacklist all other art establishments under SCC control. 50 students started a 24-hour sit-in at Guildford School of Art in protest against the way it was reorganised and being run and demanded the reinstatement of the sacked staff. Tom Arnold met 130 parents of students but did not answer their questions about the staff sackings, the sit-in or the restructuring of the School.

On 12 December 5 members of the Select Committee on Education and Science started their own enquiry led by Christopher Price MP. The questions elicited the history of friction at Guildford School of Art and the secrecy surrounding the amalgamation with Farnham School of Art.

The sacked staff held an exhibition at the Royal Institute Galleries Piccadilly from 30 December 1968 to 9 January 1969 which John Lennon and Yoko Ono attended.

On the anniversary of the original sit-in, fifty students staged another. The Liberal Party called for a public enquiry and in October 1969, the Select Committee reported that there was indeed a "prima facie case for a public enquiry at Guildford School of Art". SCC immediately rejected the call. On the second anniversary of the sit-in, Moonman again called for a public enquiry, and was supported in a letter to The Times signed by David Hockney, Peter Sellers, C Day Lewis and many other noted artists, writers, politicians and academics. In September the dispute was referred to the Department of Employment.

In May 1971, Henry Moore, Shirley Williams and others wrote to The Times asking for the Secretary of State for Science and Education to intervene in an effort to resolve the long-standing dispute. By mid-June 1971 there was a sign of a thaw: SCC agreed to discuss compensation with the ATTI and an agreement was reached by the end of June. Seven full-time lecturers were to be re-employed by Surrey County Council.

In 1974 Tom Arnold left the UK to live in Australia.

Title and Subject Matter
The title is wrong. Incomes are someone elses' outcomes, but in fact what is circulating is money, pure and simple. The various diagrams are not very exact and in fact the whole macroeconomy may easily be considered as one subject having a circulation between its 6 sectors or entities as shown in the attached diagram. This diagram incorporates 19 mutual flows of goods etc. with money flowing in the opposite direction and is a fair description of a closed macroeconomy or social system which has been made sufficiently comprehensive as to cover the whole of the "big-picture".Macrocompassion (talk) 12:06, 2 April 2012 (UTC)

“Original Research” notice box is NOT justified
I strongly recommend that this notice box be deleted.

I agree completely with many of the observations above: this article would benefit significantly by a thorough cleaning up—i.e., extensive rewriting and reformatting, as well as the addition of detailed sources/references.

But I don’t believe the section marked by the “Original Research” notice box contains anything even remotely resembling original research (unless the editors or WP policy consider specific numerical examples to be “original research,” which would be absurd in contexts like this). Perhaps the editor who added the box has never studied the discussion of the circular flow of income in a typical introductory or intermediate macroeconomics text and, as a result, misinterpreted something in the section’s wording as being, or suggesting, original research. But the material is, in fact, pretty standard stuff—albeit an advanced (i.e., more complete) model, which some intro econ courses may not have time to cover. Based on my personal experience teaching this topic, though, it’s absolutely not original research.

 * --Jackftwist (talk) 20:29, 13 July 2012 (UTC)

Much as I would like to join in with this talk, I have not found the "Original Research" mentioned above. It does not exist in the article. If the writer Jackftwist is referring to my diagram with 6 sectors, or to something else, he needs to clarify what he has in mind.

The 6 sector model is significant because it separates the landlord from the capitalist and the way these two kinds of investments behave is completely different. Often when one rises in value the other remains fixed, or even drops. For a full analysis of this representation, I advise the interested reader to get my recent book: "Consequential Macroeconomics--Rationalizing About How Our Society Works" which can be reviewed as an e-copy if you write to; chesterdh@hotmail.com and explain why you are interested.Macrocompassion (talk) 08:26, 6 September 2016 (UTC)

India Education Program course assignment
This article was the subject of an educational assignment supported by Wikipedia Ambassadors through the India Education Program.

The above message was substituted from by PrimeBOT (talk) on 19:59, 1 February 2023 (UTC)

Six Sector Model
The five-sector model does not separate the two roles within capitalism, namely that of investor and of landowner. This important difference comes about because when Adam Smith defined the 3 factors of production, (namely Land, Labor and Capital) he included the landowner as performing a separate role or activity from that of the capitalist, whose role was one of owning and hiring out the durable capital goods. Land he separated, because it should not be taken as being an investment object having been made by earlier work. This results in there being a six-sector model which does not include "the rest of the world".

The diagram for this 6-sector model may be found in my book "Consequential Macroeconomics" and also in two working papers: SSRN 28675571 "Einstein's Criterion Applied to logical Macroeconomics Modelling" and to SSRN 2600103 "A mechanical Model for Teaching Macroeconomics". Macrocompassion (talk) 15:53, 1 May 2023 (UTC)

The Six Sector Model
This topic has not been mentioned and it should be because when the whole system is reduced to its various kinds of exchanges of money for goods, services, etc., it is found that there are 10 kinds of these exchanges and them must circulate between the 6 sectors that are the various parts of the whole system. Without this system the money that continuously circulates would be found to be unable to balance the values of what it is being used for. This system and its model have been well-explained in my short working paper SSRN 2865571 "Einstein's Criterion Applied to Logical Macroeconomics Modelling". The six sectors are: Government, Landowner, Producer, Household, Finance Institution and Capitalist. (It should be understood that the activities of a landowner and a capitalist are different.) This criterion (applied to the hypothesis of any truly scientific investigation) is to include all of the system in the most simple yet comprehensive way. In the Wikipedia explanation of a system this model is used for purposes of illustration the circulation of money. (talk) 15:38, 30 July 2023 (UTC)

Lake Eppalock

Lake Eppalock is an Australian reservoir in North Central Victoria about 130 km northwest of Melbourne. It was formed by the construction of a major earth and rockfill embankment dam, known as Eppalock Dam, with a controlled chute spillway across the Campaspe and the Coliban rivers. The lake is situated between the regional population centres of Bendigo and Heathcote and serves as a major water storage facility for both places, as well as the Campaspe irrigation district. The lake also serves as a popular sports and recreational facility.

Location and features
The dam was built by the State Rivers and Water Supply Commission of Victoria. The dam wall height is 45 m and the main embankment is 1041 m long. At 100% capacity the dam wall was designed to hold back 304651 ML of water. The surface area of Lake Eppalock is 3011 ha and the catchment area is 2124 km2. The controlled spillway is capable of discharging 8040 m3/s.

Lake Eppalock supplies both stock and domestic water to the Campaspe irrigation district. It also serves as a water supply to Bendigo and Heathcote and, in more recent times, Ballarat.

The lake is a major attraction for those engaging in watersports, with a number of tourist parks and accommodation facilities available. Permissible activities on the lake include high-speed boating, water skiing, sailing, canoeing, fishing and swimming. The lake water levels were low for approximately eight years between 2002 and 2010 during a prolonged drought, which restricted the amount of recreational activity until rainfall in the latter half of 2010 returned the lake to 100 percent capacity. A speed restriction of 5 knots is placed on the lake when the level falls below 16 percent or 180 m.

Camping is permitted only in caravan parks and/or on private land surrounding the lake with a permit from the land owner.

Built between 1961 and 1964, Lake Eppalock remains the only water storage on the Campaspe River system. The lake was full in August 2000 then ran dry over two years, to 2002. It remained below 15 percent for 8 years due to drought. The reservoir rose from 8 percent in June 2010, to full capacity by November. The lake overflowed its spillway for the first time since 1996, on 28 November 2010, after significant rainfall over the preceding 48 hours. As of August 2015, the lake was at 44% capacity, down from 74% a year earlier.

Lake Eppalock is administered by Goulburn–Murray Water.
