Bedrock Gardens is a  garden located on a  property in Lee, New Hampshire, notable for its landscape design, its horticulture and its sculpture.

History
Named for its ever-present ledge, Bedrock Gardens was bought by its present owners in 1980. The abandoned dairy farm came with a farm house, built circa 1740, a historic barn, a three-holer outhouse and  of scrub forest. Over the next 30 years,  were developed into a large ornamental garden. The wooded areas were lumbered, which created a trail system. A wildlife pond was built, and work was started on its multiple perennial and shrub beds. Hardscape in the form of walls, paths, water features, structures, and topographical improvements, have been added. Today it is noted for its concept of "the garden as a journey," with a starting point, "events" (or garden spaces) as places to go, and something to do along the way. It has been called "one of the most beautiful and intriguing private landscapes in New Hampshire".
In 2019, a 98 space parking lot, a welcome kiosk and restrooms were added. In 2020, there were 12,000 visitors.

Interest points
Bedrock Garden's main attractions fall into three categories: landscape design, horticulture, and art.

Landscape design
Bedrock Gardens include "multiple garden beds full of unusual specimens of trees, shrubs and perennials: a diamond-patterned,  fence on which 11 varieties of apple trees have been espaliered: a formal garden with pools, fountains, and water features; a  wildlife pond with a bridge, and  of woodland trails." There are many structures including a tea house, pergolas, a torii, and water features. The smaller gardens include a more formal parterre, the spiritual "Spiral" garden, and the primitive "Dark Woods".

Horticulture
The Gardens contain over one thousand different plant species, many of which are in perennial beds, arranged with attention to texture, color, and size. There are other collections, such as the dwarf conifer collection, a  grass garden, and a rock garden.

Art
Scattered throughout the  are small and large pieces of sculpture by Jill Nooney, one of the co-founders. Nancy Grimes, the previous owner of New England Garden Ornaments in North Brookfield, called Nooney "the most imaginative and energetic force in modern American garden ornamentation." Many of her sculptures are from old agricultural tools.

Friends of Bedrock Gardens
In 2013, the Friends of Bedrock Gardens was formed and acquired nonprofit status. While Bedrock Gardens is currently privately owned, the ownership and management will be transferred to the Friends.

In a ship mortgage (common law) or  ship hypothec (civil law term, covering also a maritime lien), a shipowner gives a lender (or mortgagee) a security interest in a ship as collateral for a mortgage loan.  Similar to other types of mortgages, a ship mortgage legally consists of three parts: the mortgage loan, the mortgage document (deed) and the rights derived from the mortgage deed onto money lender.  Ship mortgages differ from other types of mortgage in three ways.  First, some privileged claims could have a higher ranking over that of mortgagee against the ship.   Second, ships naturally move between jurisdictions.  And third, a ship is always at risk of partial or total damages at sea.  The use of ship mortgages emerged as a widely accepted practice in shipping industry in the 19th century as a major source of finance for ship owners.

Modern forms of statutory mortgages
In United Kingdom, ship mortgages practice traces to the Merchant Shipping Act 1894, the Merchant Shipping Act 1988 and subsequent amendments to the 1988 Act. Paragraph 21 of Schedule 1 to the Merchant Shipping Act 1988 provides that "a registered ship, or a share in any such ship, may be made a security for the repayment of a loan or the discharge of any other obligation; and on production of the instrument creating any such security (referred to in this Act as a mortgage), the registrar of the ship's port of registry shall record it in the register."

In the Merchant Shipping Act 1894, it is provided that only registered ships can be subject to statutory legal mortgages; any other mortgage related to ships shall take effect as a purely equitable mortgage, which may emerge on unfinished vessels, foreign vessels, and others.

Registration of statutory mortgages
The registration of a ship mortgage is essential to have legal effects, though failure to register does not render the mortgage void: under Merchant Shipping Acts, any unregistered mortgagee cannot enjoy any benefits available.

Even with the protection clause to the buyer in Norwegian Sales Form 1993, "the Sellers warrant that the Vessel, at the time of delivery, is free from all charters, encumbrances, mortgages and maritime liens or any other debts whatsoever."  For buyers, registration of ships with mortgages is particularly important to avoid future litigation after sales due to claims related to unregistered mortgages.

Protection against other mortgagees
The most critical benefits of registration for the mortgagee is obtaining priority, with priority ranking solely decided by the date of registration. By giving a "notice to the world", the registered mortgagee could be protected from all later secured creditors of the mortgagor, who may seek further finance from other sources using the same ship as security.

In UK, regulation 59 of the Merchant Shipping (Registration of Ships) Regulations 1993, mortgagees of a ship or a share in a registered British ship are allowed to give notice of their intended interests to and recorded by the Registrar. Once later executed or registered, the registered mortgagees will have priority over the other registered mortgages which may have been fully registered in the first place.

Priority rankings
Registration confers a mortgagee higher priority over the following scenarios but not limited to:

 earlier unregistered mortgages, irrespective of knowledge of them;
 later registered or unregistered mortgages; and
 additional advances subsequently made under a prior registered mortgage where under the agreement was that mortgage should cover present and future advances by the mortgagee.

However, a mortgagee does not have priority over the following scenarios but not limited to:
 any mortgage registered earlier;
 any claims in connection with which the vessel had already been arrested at the time when the mortgage was entered into;
 any possessory lien of a ship repairer; and
 maritime liens, whether earlier or later

Mortgage registration in China

According to Article 20, Chapter IV of Regulations of the People's Republic of China Governing the Registration of Ships, both the mortgagor and the mortgagee are required to submit three major documents first:

 written application signed by both parties;
 original Ship Ownership Registration Certificate; and
 contract of ship mortgage

Collateral deed
As a basic statutory form of mortgage, a reference to a collateral deed containing detailed particulars should be included:
 like the time for repayment of the principal sums;
 the interest payable on the capital sum loaned;
 the method of payment;
 the party responsible for insuring the ship;
 any restriction which the mortgage may take place on the manner in which the ship is to be used; and
 conditions when default will be considered by the mortgagor, allowing the mortgage to re-possess and sell the mortgaged security

Fabien Barcella (born 27 October 1983) is a French former professional rugby union player who played as a prop. He played for France at international level, earning 20 caps between 2008 and 2011.

Domestic Clubs
Barcella played for Toulouse before joining Valence-d'Agen in 2005. He then went on to play for Auch between 2006 and 2008. In 2008 he joined Biarritz Olympique where he made his Heineken Cup debut.

International Selection
In 2008 French coach Marc Lievremont sprung a surprise when he called up Barcella for the 2008 Six Nations Championship match against Italy at the Stade de France. He was also called up to the Wales game a week later. He featured again in the Autumn against Argentina.
During the 2009 Six Nations Championship, he was in competition with Sale prop Lionel Faure for the starting job, which he obtained, making big performances. He played at the 2011 Rugby World Cup squad in New Zealand.

He was later called for test matches against New Zealand and Australia in June, where he made a number of standout performances. Barcella is often seen as one of the best loose head props in the world, his ability to destroy his opposite number in the scrum and cause havoc around the pitch with his brute aggression often sets him apart from his peers.

Knights Stadium is an Australian soccer stadium in Sunshine North, a suburb of Melbourne, Victoria.

Built in 1989, it is used by the Melbourne Knights as a home ground in the NPL Victoria competition, and previously in the National Soccer League (NSL). The Knights were one of only a handful of clubs in the NSL to actually own their home ground.

The land at Somers Street, which had been a Village drive through cinema, was bought and developed largely through donations and volunteer work from the local Croatian community. The idea was that if 1000 people each donated $300 that would equal $300,000, more than enough to purchase the land.

The stadium holds approximately 15,000 people. It consists of a seated main stand (the Mark Viduka Stand) which has a capacity of 4,000 and open standing-room terracing around the rest of the stadium. The largest crowd at the stadium came in 2000 at a National Soccer League match between the Melbourne Knights and South Melbourne, it drew a crowd of 11,500.

The Stadium complex covers around . It has three pitches, including the main pitch. The complex also contains the Melbourne Croatia club rooms and the Knights Sports Gym (an open to the public member's boxing / fitness gymnasium under the stadium). The facility has two car parks with 700 spaces.

The stadium is also home to the Melbourne Croatia Soccer Club, which currently owns the stadium with the Melbourne Knights serving as tenants. This came about in 2006 when the Melbourne Knights and Melbourne Croatia Soccer Club Inc. separated and become two separate legal entities.

The beginning of 2008 saw Knights Stadium facilities receive its most significant face-lift since the grandstand was first built with the main pitch being re-laid, as well as renovations on both the grandstand and terraces.

In the 2009 season the stadium's name was changed from Knights Stadium to Mansion Stadium, after online betting giant Mansion88, became the club's major sponsor and bought the naming rights to the stadium. This was a temporary naming deal for the 2009 season. Their sponsorship deal has since ended and the name then returned to that of Knights Stadium.

In 2011, the club replaced 900 old and broken seats in order to host the first round of the 2011 Australasian Supercross Championships.

In 2016, Knights spent around $100,000 on Stadium upgrades, including further asphalting of the car-park and a replacement of the old, tall fence, with a smaller, more viewer-friendly, fence, bringing it in line with most other premium stadiums around the State.

Seantrel Henderson (born January 21, 1992) is an American football offensive tackle who is a free agent. He was drafted by the Buffalo Bills in the seventh round of the 2014 NFL Draft. He played college football at the University of Miami.

Henderson attended Cretin-Derham Hall High School and originally signed a letter of intent to play college football at the University of Southern California, but was granted release from his commitment by Coach Lane Kiffin in July 2010 and eventually committed to the University of Miami.

High school career
Henderson was considered the top overall player in his class by a number of recruiting services; Rivals.com named him their 2008 Junior of the Year, while USA Today named him to their All-American First-Team as one of only two juniors. Henderson made the All-USA team in 2009 again, and was also named Offensive Player of the Year, the first lineman to do so in the 28-year history of the award. Tom Lemming called him "a cross between Jonathan Ogden and Orlando Pace," two of the best offensive tackles in the NFL in the 2000s; Sports Illustrated called him "probably the most polished lineman of the past decade".

He was also featured in a July 2008 issue of Sports Illustrated, profiling young athletes poised to star in their sports, alongside Taylor Hall and Jeremy Tyler.

In 2009, Henderson helped Cretin-Derham Hall to a 5A state championship and was named Minnesota Player of the Year by the Associated Press. It's believed to be the first time the annual award has gone to a lineman.

A two-sport star, Henderson also played basketball. He played for the "Howard Pulley Panthers" on the AAU circuit alongside Harrison Barnes, one of the nation's top basketball prospects. Henderson also threw shot put and discus and won the 1,500 meter race walk, shot put, and discus in the USATF 2004 Minnesota Junior Olympics Outdoor Championships.

Recruiting
After unofficial visits to Minnesota, Iowa, Wisconsin, Michigan and Michigan State, he acknowledged that Michigan was his early favorite. In the summer of 2009, Henderson took unofficial visits to Florida State, Florida, Ohio State, Tennessee, Southern California, and UCLA. At that point, Notre Dame, USC, Ohio State and Michigan were mentioned as leading contenders. Henderson's former Cretin-Derham Hall teammate Michael Floyd was playing for the Notre Dame Fighting Irish.

Henderson scheduled his fifth and final official recruiting visit to the University of Miami for the 2010 Pro Bowl weekend in late January. He had already made official visits to USC, Ohio State, Notre Dame, and Florida.

Henderson announced his college decision on Tom Lemming's television show on CBS College Sports on National Signing Day. He verbally committed to the Trojans, but did not sign his letter of intent until after USC went before the NCAA infractions committee on February 19 to respond to allegations relating to a scandal involving Heisman Trophy-winning tailback Reggie Bush. Henderson finally signed his letter of intent on March 22, 2010.  When the NCAA rendered its decision banning USC from postseason play for two years and imposing severe scholarship reductions, Henderson asked to be released from his commitment to USC. Henderson was released from his commitment to USC on July 6, 2010.

On July 9, 2010, Henderson announced his decision to attend the University of Miami, which had always been his "second choice", according to his father.

College career
As a true freshman at Miami, Henderson played 12 games (including 9 starts) and saw most of his action at right tackle. Henderson earned All-Freshman selections by the Football Writers Association of America, College Football News, Phil Steele, and Rivals.com.

In 2011, Henderson played in eight games and earned two starts after recovering from off-season back surgery. In March 2012, Henderson was suspended for the first weekend of spring practice for violating team policy. The team also announced that he would not play in the opening game of the 2012 season against Maryland.

On August 1, 2012, Henderson was involved in a car accident while driving to a friend's funeral in which the Chevy Impala he was driving ran a red light and crashed into a car carrying a family of six. Two children in the car were transported to the hospital. Henderson received a concussion. Henderson was cited for driving with an expired license and running a red light. Henderson missed the first twelve Miami Hurricane practices while recovering from the concussion.

In the 2012 season, Henderson started seven games at right tackle for the Hurricanes. He was an honorable mention on the All-Atlantic Coast Conference team. Henderson opted to remain at Miami rather than make himself eligible for the 2013 NFL Draft.

After the 2013 season, Henderson was once again named an honorable mention on the All-Atlantic Coast Conference team. He was demoted to backup for three games and suspended for one.

Henderson was invited to the 2014 Senior Bowl. Before the game, he admitted that marijuana use led to his three suspensions from the University of Miami football team. "I'm just being honest with every (NFL) team and letting them know exactly what the situations were, and that I'm putting all the negative things behind me moving on to the next level," he said. "I want to be a starter and play in the NFL."

Professional career

Buffalo Bills
The Buffalo Bills selected Henderson in the seventh round (237th overall) of the 2014 NFL Draft.

Drummond Street is a street just outside Edinburgh's Old Town, near the famous Royal Mile and Holyrood. The street connects the South Bridge (A7), where it is opposite the Old College, and the Pleasance. The street is paved with granite setts. It is in an area with several University properties and is home to many students as well as pubs and restaurants.

Name

Originally called Back Wall as the street was just outside the city wall, it was from the 1850s named after George Drummond.

History

One famous former resident is David Bowie, who shared a small basement flat in Drummond Street with the mime artist Lindsay Kemp for several months in the early 1970s.

The street is the site of the former Drummond Street Surgical Hospital which was built in 1853 by David Bryce as an addition to the Royal Infirmary in Infirmary Street. The February 1850 Monthly Journal of Medical Science records the plans for building the hospital as follows:

At the junction of Drummond Street and the Pleasance can be found some vestiges of a bastion of the Flodden Wall.  The wall travels from that bastion along the north side of the street.  The section fronting the old surgical hospital has been reduced to four feet in height but still comprises the stones of the original.

On 4 November 1857, John Gamgee set up the New Edinburgh Veterinary College, one of three veterinary colleges being established in Edinburgh at the time, in stable courtyard premises at 6 Drummond Street. The college received its royal sign manual, necessary to allow students to be examined by the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons, in March 1859.  Gamgee recognised that the Drummond Street location was not ideal and by 1862 had moved his college to the west side of Lothian Road on a site now occupied by the Caledonian Hotel.

Dr. John Smith, with his friends Frances Imlach, Peter Orphoot and Robert Nasmyth, opened the Edinburgh Dental Dispensary at 1 Drummond Street in January 1860. In 1862 it moved to premises in Cockburn Street.

At the west end of the street was Rutherford's Bar, patronized in the time of Robert Louis Stevenson and by members of The Speculative Society at the University.  Their weekly meetings were held on Tuesdays, officially from 8 p.m. to midnight.  Lord Guthrie, joint president of the Society with Stevenson in the years 1872–1873 and 1873–1874, recalls in his personal memoirs of Stevenson:

The premises were remodelled in 1899 and had a U-shaped bar. The internal fittings were lost in further modernization. The property is now an Italian restaurant, the decor of which is in homage to Stevenson's Treasure Island. Surviving from 1899 is the timber Ionic pilastered frontage with the trademark of Rutherford and Company (dated 1834) in an arched panel above.

A former first floor café on the corner with Nicolson Street is reputedly where J. K. Rowling began writing the Harry Potter series.

The Speaker of the National Assembly of Zambia is a position established under Article 69(1) of the constitution. The Speaker is elected by members of the Assembly from anyone eligible to be elected to the National Assembly, but cannot be a sitting member.

History
The post of Speaker was first created on 10 November 1948 when the Governor appointed Thomas Spurgeon Page to preside over the Legislative Council following the 1948 general elections. Previously the Governor had also held the position of the President of the Legislative Council.

The Speakers of the Legislative Council were appointed by the Governor. Shortly after independence in 1964, appointed Speaker of the renamed National Assembly Thomas Williams stepped down and was replaced by Wesley Nyirenda, who was the MP for Fort Jameson. Nyrienda remained a constituency MP. After Nyirenda resigned in 1968, Speakers were appointed from outside the National Assembly by a vote of Assembly members.

Robert Frigault (born 1971) is a Canadian cyber-activist, publisher/writer and entrepreneur who was active against Bennett Environmental Inc.'s plans to operate a soil incinerator designed to treat soils contaminated with PCBs, PCPs, pesticides and chlorinated organic compounds. In 2004, Frigault created the web portal stopbennett.com to help concerned residents of Northern New Brunswick stop the company from operating its incinerator in Belledune, located in the Baie des Chaleurs region of the province. The portal garnered over 10,000 signatures for a petition that was delivered to Bernard Lord, former Premier  of New Brunswick.

Frigault was born in Bathurst, New Brunswick. After spending most of his career as a marketer of both enterprise software and travel products in Toronto, Montreal and Boston, Frigault returned to Bathurst in 2007 to serve as President of NU Exchange, Inc., and to pursue his dream of establishing an edible forest garden based on the pioneering work of Robert Hart in the UK. The edible forest is located at Stonefly Acres, a  private property outside of the city of Bathurst.

In March 2009, Frigault co-founded nthWORD, an online arts & culture magazine.

Stuart Linnell MBE BAHons HonMA is a semi-retired UK radio and television broadcaster, particularly well known in Coventry and Warwickshire, and in Northamptonshire. He is Chair of Healthwatch Coventry, and Chair of Coventry Community Digital Radio.

After starting his career in his native Birmingham, he was part of the on-air team at the launch of Radio Hallam in Sheffield in 1974. He was also a front-line presenter at the launch of Coventry and Warwickshire’s first local radio station, Coventry based Mercia Sound, in 1980. He worked at Mercia for 15 years, becoming Programme Controller and Managing Director.

Later, he spent ten years as a frontline presenter at BBC Radio Northampton until 29 March 2019, when he hosted his final regular daily radio show, having announced that he was then taking semi-retirement. He continued to present weekly sports programmes in Coventry for BBC CWR,  and until the restrictions imposed as a consequence of the Covid-19 pandemic Linnell also hosted other occasional shows for both BBC Radio Northampton and BBC CWR. For the 2019/2020 football season, Linnell was the host of the Friday evening football phone-in on BBC CWR, where he had previously presented the Sky Blues match-day coverage, as well as other shows. In August 2021 he announced that he would no longer be part of BBC CWR’s football coverage. He continues to host a weekly programme for the online music station Serenade Radio (www.serenade-radio.com).

During his career he also broadcast on national and regional television, and on national radio. He also hosted the breakfast shows on BBC WM and BBC CWR.

Early life and education
Stuart Linnell was born at Northfield in Birmingham on 22 January 1947. His parents were Captain Eric Linnell and Dorothy Linnell (née Swain). His paternal grandfather was Captain Charles Linnell MC MBE, President of the South African War Veteran's Association, who won the Military Cross at Passchendaele.

Linnell attended Kings Heath High School and Kings Norton Grammar School for Boys (now Kings Norton Boys' School), both in Birmingham. He studied at Matthew Boulton Technical College and, later, at the Open University.

Career
After beginning his broadcasting as a volunteer contributor to the Birmingham Hospital Broadcasting Network (BHBN), Linnell started his professional broadcasting career at the then regional BBC centre at Pebble Mill with BBC Radio Birmingham in 1970. In 1974, he was recruited to the UK's developing commercial radio network with the launch of Radio Hallam in Sheffield.

He spent six years at Radio Hallam as sports editor, hosting all the station's main sports programmes and commentating on many major fixtures including football, cricket, boxing and speedway. He added snooker to that list when the World Professional Snooker Championship moved to a regular, annual venue at Sheffield’s Crucible Theatre in 1977. He also presented other, non-sports, shows at Radio Hallam, and during his years in Sheffield, Linnell also appeared from time to time on the regional ITV station Yorkshire Television.

In 1980 Linnell was part of the launch team at Coventry's first local radio station Mercia Sound. He stayed at Mercia for 15 years, initially as Sports Editor hosting the station's sports programmes and commentating on various sporting fixtures. When the station started he was also presenter of the weekday afternoon show "Afternoon Delight", before going on to be Mercia's Programme Controller and then Managing Director. As local commercial radio developed, Mercia became part of a group of radio stations across the Midlands, which saw Linnell's management role involve BRMB in Birmingham, RAM FM in Derby and Leicester Sound.

In 1995 he returned to the BBC to host radio and TV programmes in the Midlands, including the Breakfast Shows on BBC WM and, later, BBC CWR.

Linnell then spent some years freelancing for radio and TV stations broadcasting to the UK and to Ireland, and he worked for a short time with the ill-fated commercial radio group Laser Broadcasting, before returning to front-line presenting on BBC local radio in 2009. He presented programmes for BBC Radio Derby, BBC Radio Oxford, BBC Hereford & Worcester, BBC CWR, and BBC Radio Northampton.

After seven years hosting the weekday (Monday-Friday) Breakfast Show for BBC Radio Northampton, Linnell moved to the station's Afternoon & Drive Time Show, also on weekdays. For many years he also hosted the matchday Sky Blues Live football show for BBC CWR for whom he also presented other programmes, including a period as host of the station’s faith-based Sunday Breakfast Show. For the 2019/2020 football season, he was the regular host of the BBC CWR Friday evening football phone-in show.

On 29 March 2019, Linnell hosted his final regularly scheduled afternoon show in Northampton, having announced that he was stepping down from full-time, daily broadcasting. In August 2021 he decided that he would longer be involved with BBC CWR’s football coverage, declaring that he would now follow the game as a Coventry City FC season ticket holder.

On television, he has presented the Saturday evening edition of Midlands Today on BBC One, and the Sunday lunchtime TV programme 'The Midlands At Westminster' (the forerunner to The Politics Show) which was on either BBC One or BBC Two depending on the needs of the programme schedules. He has worked for the UK national radio stations BBC Radio Five Live, BBC Radio 5 Live Sports Extra and TalkSport, and for the Irish national commercial station Today FM. He has also been a reporter for the TV stations Sky Sports News and Setanta Sports.

In 2008, Linnell stepped down after two years as Chairman of the Coventry Branch of the Coventry and Warwickshire Chamber of Commerce. He is a former member of the Chamber's main board.

In January 2019, he was appointed Chair of Healthwatch Coventry, whilst continuing to broadcast having become a presenter for the online radio station Serenade Radio in November 2020.

In April 2022, Linnell was invited to be Chair of Coventry Community Digital Radio, a Community Interest Company formed to help local community radio stations in Coventry access Ofcom’s Small Scale DAB Multiplex licence for the city.

Honours and awards

Linnell was made MBE for services to broadcasting in 1995. He received his medal from Her Majesty the Queen at an investiture at Buckingham Palace.

He won three Sony Radio Academy Awards – the most coveted awards in UK radio – one of them the Gold Award for the UK's best speech-based Breakfast Show (at BBC WM) in 1997, a category won the previous year by the BBC World Service and the following year by BBC Radio 5 Live. His BBC WM Breakfast Show won Silver and Gold Sony's in successive years (1996 and 1997).

At the International Radio Festival of New York, Linnell received Gold and Bronze awards respectively for the programme formats of Mercia Sound and Leicester Sound.

In 1999, he received an Honorary MA from Coventry University in recognition of his work as a broadcaster and for his services to the community in Coventry and Warwickshire. At the end of 2007 he graduated with a BA Honours in Humanities with Literature after six years study with the Open University.

In 2010, his Sunday Breakfast Show on BBC CWR received a Merit Award in the Sandford St Martin Trust Religious Radio Awards for a series called "Dear God" in which listeners were invited to send in their messages to God, some of which were broadcast on air. They ranged from the upbeat to the loneliness of bereavement. The messages were pinned to a board displayed first at the radio station and later in Coventry Cathedral. Linnell's Sunday Breakfast Show was also a finalist in the 2012 Jerusalem Awards for its "Rev's Records" feature in which faith leaders, including the Archbishop of Canterbury and the Bishop of Coventry, chose some of their favourite music.

Healthwatch Coventry
In January 2019 Linnell took on the voluntary role of Chair of Healthwatch Coventry, regarded as the champion for health and social care in Coventry. He was appointed to the post for a three-year term, which was renewed in 2022 for a further three years.

Coventry Community Digital Radio

In April 2022 Linnell accepted an invitation to be Chair of the Community Interest Company, Coventry Community Digital Radio. The company successfully applied to Ofcom for the licence to run the Local Small Scale DAB Multiplex for Coventry.

Semi-retirement
In March 2019, Linnell announced that, after 50 years behind the mic, he was retiring from full-time broadcasting, but intended to still host shows on an occasional basis. He continued to appear from time to time hosting one-off shows on BBC Radio Northampton and on BBC CWR, and for the 2019/2020 football season, he was the host of the weekly, hour-long, Friday evening football phone-in show on BBC CWR.

Because of the restrictions imposed as a consequence of the COVID-19 pandemic, he last appeared on BBC Radio Northampton in the spring of 2020. Since March 2020, Linnell has been broadcasting from home, and appeared from time to time alongside BBC CWR Sports Editor Clive Eakin on CWR programmes featuring Coventry City F.C. In August 2021, he announced that he was stepping down from his work with BBC CWR.

In November 2020, he joined the presentation team of the online easy listening music station Serenade Radio for whom he continues to host a show every weekend, which he presents from home.

Health

In November 2022, Linnell was diagnosed as having had a mini stroke. He was discharged from hospital after suffering no significant incapacity. Further hospital scans and tests in May 2023 revealed that Linnell has prostate cancer. He was diagnosed with Grade 2 cancer, requiring regular monitoring but no initial treatment or surgery.

Personal life

Linnell and his wife Sue live in Coventry with their two dogs. They have two sons and two granddaughters.

Linnell is a member of the Three Spires Bowling Club in Coventry. He is also a member of the Parochial Church Council at St. Mary Magdalen Church at Chapelfields in Coventry.

The Diploma in Legal Practice (from its introduction in 1980 until 2012/13) or Diploma in Professional Legal Practice (from 2012/13) is a Scottish postgraduate qualification required in order to practise law in Scotland, as either a solicitor or an advocate. It is undertaken after completing undergraduate study and before commencing a traineeship.

The course is intended to provide students with the more practical skills they will require after academic study, comprising compulsory modules in conveyancing, civil court practice, criminal court practice, private client, financial services and related skills, accountancy and professional responsibility, with a choice of either company and commercial or public administration.

Until the start of the 2012/13 academic year, the Diploma attracted a quota of funded places from the Student Awards Agency for Scotland (SAAS), set at three hundred. The funding extended to a contribution of around £3,000 towards fees and a means-tested subsistence allowance. Fees for the Diploma range from £6,630 - £7,700.

From 2012/13, as part of a wider review of funding for postgraduate courses, the Scottish Government announced changes to the way in which postgraduate courses would be funded, including the Diploma, which became the Diploma in Professional Legal Practice. Since the change students may apply to SAAS for a loan (£3,400 ) towards the cost of tuition.  There was considerable criticism of the postgraduate funding, in particular that the changes made did not do enough to widen access to the Scottish legal profession.

Providers
 the Diploma was offered at:
University of Aberdeen
University of Dundee
University of Edinburgh
University of Glasgow
The Robert Gordon University
University of Strathclyde

The University of Stirling stopped offering the course from the start of the 2012/13 academic year

Donald Pass (9 September 1930 – 3 December 2010) was a British painter whose art has been compared to that of William Blake by a reviewer in an Oxford newspaper, among others. He is known for work based on a vision he experienced, which has been interpreted as the Resurrection of the Dead. His work is found in museums and private collections in Europe, the United States, and Australia.

Education

Donald Pass was educated on Stoke-on-Trent Regional College of Art (1947–1950) and the Royal Academy Schools in London (1951–1954).

Early Visions

At a young age, Donald Pass saw an angel with a lion's head at a roadside hedge. Later, while working in London as a painter, he saw through the window "a beautiful face which appeared to be all gold. It seemed to expand through the window and embrace the whole room."

The Vision of the Resurrection

Prior to 1969, Donald Pass worked as a landscape artist. In a churchyard in Cuckfield, Sussex in August of that year, he experienced a vision which has been described as:

" It was eleven in the morning on a bright day but suddenly everything darkened, and a strange light appeared with a sound like the rushing of wind. Vast fields stretched before him in which he could see miles into the distance as if it were close by, and the sky was an infinite black space with great lights moving in it. He was standing with a host of figures and gradually, he became aware of angels standing with them and coming towards them the sky. The angels were descending and ascending, coming from all directions and in all sizes. Some had their faces obscured, some had very compassionate and beautiful faces, others had faces of lions like the angel he saw in the hedge when he was a child.

In the middle, an enormous angel descended with outstretched arms and a face which Donald Pass says he can not describe. His descent was accompanied by a tremendous chorus of sound. Higher and at a distance was a beautiful and strange face in profile that had long hair yet was neither male nor female. It seemed unaware of the figures below. All the light stemmed from that extraordinary head and from the angels. It was a strange light and unlike sunlight, it spread in such a way that all the figures were illuminated.

On the ground, figures lay still with forms rising out of them as if something was emerging from a chrysalis. Donald Pass remembers that it looked "almost like a transfiguration, a rebirth" of the soul from the body. There were figures standing, and others going in three directions: one towards very dark angels who stood near the horizon and others upward in great columns into the sky where angels gathered them in. The dark angels stood very still a long way away, but those closer seemed to gather figures towards them. There were gangs of angels standing together, figures grouping together, and figures which Donald Pass say he can't describe standing together. There seemed at one point to be hands rising from the ground."

His subsequent work has been based on the vision.

The Engelberg Tunnel is a motorway tunnel on the German A81 Autobahn (motorway) just to the west of Stuttgart on the outskirts of Leonberg. During World War II it was used as a Nazi forced labor factory for the manufacture and storage of aircraft parts.

The name is sometimes used to refer to the Old Engelberg Tunnel—which was Germany's second ever motorway tunnel—and sometimes used to refer to its successor, the completely rebuilt Lower Engelberg Tunnel. Both travel under the Engelberg hill to the east of Leonberg on the Stuttgart to Heilbronn A81 motorway.

The Old Engelberg Tunnel

The original Engelberg twin tunnel was opened to traffic on 5 November 1938 after three years' construction. The  long twin tunnel stood on Route 39 of the network of motorways built during the German Reich and was Germany's first ever motorway tunnel.

World War II
During World War II both tunnels were closed to traffic in 1944 to be used as a Messerschmitt factory. Nazi slave labourers were brought to work in the factory from the Natzweiler-Struthof concentration camp in Alsace. In shifts lasting between 12 and 18 hours, Zwangsarbeiter (forced workers) assembled wings for Messerschmitt Me 262 fighter-bombers. To provide extra production area, an extra floor was built in the tunnels. Total production area was .

Around 3,000 people were forced to work in the Engelberg factory. 374 people died there.

Shortly before the end of World War II all the machinery was removed and the tunnels were blown up.

The first tunnel was returned to full working order between 1946 and 1950. The second was completed in 1961.

Construction of the Lower Engelberg Tunnel

Each tube of the old tunnel was only wide enough to accommodate two lanes of traffic and lacked a hard shoulder. As traffic volumes rose, the tunnel became a bottleneck, especially for heavy goods vehicles. Traffic jams were not so much caused by the restriction to two lanes as the steep approach to the tunnel. Vehicles approaching from the north had to climb a six percent grade. Lorries slowed significantly before reaching the tunnel causing long back ups of traffic.

In 1999, a new twin tunnel was opened to replace the old tunnels. The old west tunnel remained in place, with the south entrance still open. The old east tunnel was filled in with rubble from construction of the new tunnels. The State handed over control of the old west tunnel to the Leonberg authorities who were considering using it as a bypass. Eventually the south exit to the old west tunnel was turned into a memorial to victims of the concentration camp. The other entrance was filled in. The issue of a bypass for Leonberg has still not been resolved by town councillors.

The area where the old motorway once stood became green belt land and is popular among walkers and people sledging in winter.

In October 2004, the regional authorities expressed concern about the stability of the old tunnels beyond the blocked entrances. An engineering survey was carried out on both tunnels. Experts found that the old tunnels were in danger of collapsing so both were entirely filled in using compressed materials in late 2007 to early 2008 at a cost of around €1 million. The last  of the southern entrance of the west tunnel were left in place as part of the memorial.<ref

The new Lower Engelberg Tunnel enters the Engelberg hill  under the old tunnel. The approach from the north is almost level. Each tunnel is  long and has tunnel transmitters for uninterrupted car radio and mobile telephone reception.

The cost of the new tunnel was €435 million, financed through private funds. By the time the state of Baden-Württemberg has covered interest costs and allowed for inflation the total tunnel costs will be €720 million. As a result, the financing of the tunnel was heavily criticised for stealing funds from other major projects.

Finland has submitted thirty-five films for consideration in the Academy Award for Best International Feature Film category. The Award is handed out annually by the United States Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences to a feature-length motion picture produced outside the United States that contains primarily non-English dialogue.

The Finnish Academy Awards submission is selected by an expert jury which is chosen by the Finnish Film Foundation.

All films listed below were accepted by AMPAS, although two films- Drifting Clouds and Lights in the Dusk- were withdrawn by director Aki Kaurismäki after the films were sent to Hollywood in both 1996 and 2006. According to Mark Johnson, the chairman of the academy's foreign-language committee, he was told by the Finnish selection committee that Kaurismäki does not like film competitions. Only one Finnish film has been nominated for the Foreign Film Oscar, The Man Without a Past, which is directed by Kaurismäki. Kaurismäki boycotted the Academy Awards ceremony as protest over the U.S. involvement in the 2003 invasion of Iraq.

Because of Kaurismäki's withdrawals, Klaus Härö has represented Finland more than any other Finnish director - four times.

Submissions
The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has invited the film industries of various countries to submit their best film for the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film since 1956. The Foreign Language Film Award Committee oversees the process and reviews all the submitted films. Following this, they vote via secret ballot to determine the five nominees for the award. Below is a list of the films that have been submitted by Finland for review by the academy for the award by the year of the submission and the respective Academy Award ceremony.

All films were in Finnish except for their 2000 submission Seven Songs from the Tundra which was in Nenets and 2011 submission Le Havre  which was in French. Their 2003 & 2005 submissions were half in Swedish (also an official language of Finland), and their 1973 submission was in a Finnish dialect native to the Northern part of the country. The 2015 submission was in Estonian.

Daniel Arsham (born 1980) is an American artist. He lives and works in New York City.

Early life and education

Born in Cleveland, Ohio and raised in Miami, Florida, Arsham was 12 when Hurricane Andrew destroyed his childhood home. This traumatic event has been a continuous theme through his work. Fond of arts and mathematics, Arsham attended the Design and Architecture High School and was awarded a full scholarship to The Cooper Union in New York City.

Career
Arsham received the Gelman Trust Fellowship Award in 2003, and he won the 37th GNMH Award.

After graduating from school, Arsham moved back to Miami and started an exhibition space called "The House" with several artist friends. It was through The House that Daniel met Emmanuel Perrotin in 2004. By 2005, Galerie Perrotin in Paris was representing Arsham.

Soon thereafter Arsham was invited to create stage design and tour with choreographer Merce Cunningham's Dance Company leading to ongoing stage design practice and a sustained collaboration with choreographer and former Cunningham dancer, Jonah Bokaer.

Arsham founded Snarkitecture with Alex Mustonen in 2007. The architecture collaboration has included work with fashion brands, interior and architectural design, and a complete line of functional design objects.

In 2014 Arsham established a film company called Films of the Future. This production company synthesizes all of Arsham's creative output over the previous decade, creating a visual setting in which his otherworldly and futuristic artwork might exist. His debut series, Future Relic, consists of nine short films which depict a future civilization before and after Earth undergoes major ecological changes. The series also includes sculptures of petrified twentieth-century media artifacts constructed to look like artifacts decaying from obsolescence.

Arsham's most recent film series entitled Hourglass is a trio of films created in collaboration with Adidas. The trilogy follows an autobiographical story of Daniel in the past, present, and future as he travels through time wearing Adidas Originals X Daniel Arsham collaborative sneakers.

In 2014, Arsham  was named as one of Hypebeast's HB100 list, and has continued to remain on the Top 100 list to date.

Some of Arsham's more recent collaborative endeavors exist in the fashion world.  These include projects with brands such as Tiffany, Adidas, Dior, Toraichi, Byredo, Rimowa, and Porsche. The collaboration between Daniel Arsham X Dior SS20 includes apparel, jewelry, accessories, and shoes inspired by Arsham's sculptures and artwork.

Arsham's work has been shown at PS1 in New York, The Museum of Contemporary Art in Miami, The Athens Biennale in Athens, Greece, The New Museum in New York, Mills College Art Museum in Oakland, Cincinnati CAC, SCAD Museum of Art in Savannah GA, California and Carré d'Art de Nîmes, France, among others.

Collaboration

Merce Cunningham

In 2006, modern dance choreographer Merce Cunningham asked Arsham to design the set, lighting and costumes for his piece, "eyeSpace." The performance premiered in 2007 at the Adrienne Arsht Center for the Performing Arts in downtown Miami. Arsham, the youngest artist invited to work with the company, was also the last artist to collaborate with Cunningham before the choreographer's death in 2009. The two worked on a series of performances as part of the Festival National de Danse de Val-de-Marne. For these performances, Cunningham asked Arsham to recreate the style of set design originally explored by Merce and Robert Rauschenberg.

Hedi Slimane

In 2005, Arsham was commissioned by fashion designer Hedi Slimane to design the fitting rooms for Dior Homme's Los Angeles shop. Slimane's only limitations were that the rooms have "a hook, a seat and a mirror." Arsham's design incorporates his signature plaster erosions: the white fitting room walls seem to melt onto the bench, the mirror appears to have been excavated from the wall.

Jonah Bokaer

In 2007, Jonah Bokaer performed choreography inspired by Arsham's work at Galerie Emmanuel Perrotin in Paris. Bokaer, previously a dancer for the Merce Cunningham Dance Company, is a media-artist and choreographer. Bokaer and Arsham collaborated on "REPLICA," a piece that incorporates built space, objects, and lighting in an exploration of memory loss, pattern recognition, and perceptual faculties. The performance had its world premier at IVAM in Valencia, Spain as part of Robert Wilson (director) exhibition "Frontiers." "REPLICA" toured and performed at The New Museum in New York City and Harman Center for the Arts  in Washington, DC.

Their new collaboration "Why Patterns" combines Arsham's architectural practice Snarkitecture with his performance work with Bokaer. "Why Patterns" had its world premier at Rotterdamse Schouwburg in Rotterdam, Netherlands in February 2010. The dance's U.S. premiere took place at Jacob's Pillow Dance Festival in Massachusetts in August 2011.

Kim Jones

Kim Jones, artistic director of Dior Homme, enlisted Arsham's help in the Spring/Summer 2020 season. Arsham did the runway set design for the show, created ad campaigns, and released a 'Future Relics' capsule of iconic Dior collectibles. The collection includes wardrobe staples, jewelry, sneakers, and hats inspired by Arsham's artwork.

Hajime Sorayama

Japanese illustrator Hajime Sorayama approached Arsham in 2017 with an idea for a collaborative work. Two years later this idea came to fruition when the Japanese art dealer Nanzuka's "2G" studio displayed Arsham & Sorayama's work. One of the more popular pieces is a female robot arm made by Sorayama holding hands with Arsham's eroded crystal arm.

Ronnie Fieg

Longtime friends Ronnie Fieg and  Arsham have collaborated on numerous projects. Snarkitecture has designed six KITH stores, located in New York, Miami, and Los Angeles among others. In June 2017, Daniel Arsham and adidas' New Installation opened at KITH New York. The store was transformed into an "audio, visual and tactile experience" with a functioning New York payphone as the centerpiece, painted in adidas' signature blue. October 2017 marked the opening of the Arsham Fieg gallery located inside KITH New York. The gallery has had exhibitions from FriendsWithYou, Evren Erol, Youn Lee, Mike Lee and Sam Friedman.

Snarkitecture

Snarkitecture is a collaborative practice established by Arsham and architect Alex Mustonen in 2008. Rather than make architecture, the interest of Snarkitecture lies in the exploration of existing materials within a space and how they might be manipulated to serve a new and imaginative purpose. The firm makes architecture do things it is not intended to do. In collaboration with Arsham, the practice has been commissioned for two public art projects at the new Marlins Park.

 Arsham/Snarkitecture were selected as one of three artists to contribute artwork to the new baseball stadium located on the site of the Orange Bowl near downtown Miami, scheduled to open in 2012. Their project for the illumination of the four super columns supporting the retractable roof gives the illusion of the columns being concealed and revealed through as light fades up and down the columns. A second project for a marker to commemorate the site of the former Orange Bowl reimagines the letters from the former Orange Bowl sign as 10 foot concrete letters dispersed in various positions through the east plaza of the new ballpark. The letters are arranged so that they appear to spell different words as visitors move through the plaza.

In 2018 the pair created "Dig," an architectural intervention at Storefront for Art and Architecture in New York City. As an investigation of the "architecture of excavation," Storefront's gallery space was infilled with a solid volume of EPS architectural foam that was then excavated by hand using hand tools to create "a cavernous space for work and play." Snarkitecture also designed the A+ Award for the online publication Architizer.

Recently, Arsham and Alex Mustonen started a scholarship at Cooper Union called the Snarkitecture Commencement prize. This prize is awarded to a graduating student who "demonstrates a committed interest in exploring the peripheries of their discipline in pursuit of the unexpected."

Pokémon

In January 2022, Arsham released an animated Pokémon short titled "A Ripple in Time" by Pokémon × Daniel Arsham, via the official Japanese Pokémon YouTube channel, with English subtitles offered. The short was screened at Nanzuka Underground in Tokyo, Japan from February 12 to March 27, 2022.  Arsham himself was the primary inspiration behind a trainer who battled Ash Ketchum in the opening scenes.

Warren Elmer "Tweard" Blackhurst (1904–1970) was an author and a lifelong resident of the Cass community who centered on the culture of eastern West Virginia where the higher elevations supported northern pine forests.  "Riders of the Flood" which is arguably the most well-known of Blackhurst's books, for it centers on the world of the late 19th to early 20th-century logging industry in eastern West Virginia through the Greenbrier River and its tributaries.

Life and upbringing
Blackhurst was born on October 10, 1904, in Arbovale, West Virginia, to Rev. Harry Blackhurst (1870–1956) and his wife Lula May née Burner (1870–1960). His father, an immigrant from Tunstall, England, came to America in 1886 with his parents Jabez (1843–1914) and Sarah (1842–1924), and Warren's mother was an American-born native of Pocahontas County, West Virginia. Warren was the seventh of eleven children. While a student at Green Bank High School, he fell in love with a fellow student Annie Moates, and some of his schoolmates called him "Moates" to tease him about his unrequited love for Annie. The name stuck, and for the rest of his life, he never went by Warren, but by either Moates or "Tweard." Warren spent nearly his entire life close to the lumber industry, and knew the intricacies of this industry like few other people. Even more remarkably, he was able to portray the logging workers in a realistic light. Whether they are the blustering bully about to get drunk and rip a town apart just because it is payday, or a young man trying to make something of himself, the characters sounded like actual people who one might already know. As a native of West Virginia, Blackhurst knew when was self-parody and when it would ring false.

Blackhurst was a graduate of Green Bank High School and Glenville State College, attended West Virginia University and the Davis and Elkins College. He returned to his alma mater (Green Bank) and taught English and Latin for thirty-two years. He married Stella Mae Yates (1917-2000) on June 25, 1934, and they moved into a house his elder brother Henry O'Dell Blackhurst (1895-1989) and father had built together a few years prior. On July 25, 1940, their only child, an unnamed boy, was born in Cass, and only lived a few minutes before being asphyxiated by the afterbirth. He and his wife operated the Wildlife Museum in Cass.

Blackhurst devoted much of his life to collecting and writing the history of the early logging days. At the time of his birth in 1904, the lumber business was just seriously getting underway in the Greenbrier Valley following the completion of the C&O Railway's Greenbrier Branch. One location in his books, the town of Cass, was created by the West Virginia Pulp and Paper Company, and Blackhurst grew up during the most active years of that company in the valley.

Riders of the Flood
Riders of the Flood, the outdoor drama, was written by Greenbrier County native and artist, Robert Tuckwiller.  It is based on the book of the same title by the late W. E. Blackhurst of Cass, West Virginia.  Set during the bygone era when logging camps were plentiful, and loggers risked their lives to drive logs down the Greenbrier River, Riders of the Flood tells the tale of one young man who, down on his luck, is forced to leave the big city and start a new life. He sets off to join a logging camp, not only to find work, but more importantly, to find himself. His journey winds its way through the Greenbrier River Valley, over Droop Mountain, in to Pocahontas County, and on to the high mountain country beyond. Along the way he finds adventure, romance, and success.

Every September the nonprofit organization, Riders of the Flood, hosts this outdoor drama to critical success in Ronceverte. West Virginia. Its sequel, "Big Dreams, Restless Spirit" is equally well received. The theatre is built along the banks of the Greenbrier River and occasional floods have disrupted the showtimes.

Summary
The main protagonist, Duncan “Dunk” Mall is quickly moved by his unexpected collapse in fortunes to take the next train out of Washington, D.C. He falls asleep in the freight-car of a Chesapeake & Ohio train and wakes up in Ronceverte, West Virginia. After learning of his plight, Bill Brake (the local cook of the diner) gives him a large meal, clothes from a dead man, and a few dollars so he can get started as a man who can possibly make his way in the logging industry. He follows the railroad tracks northeast out of Greenbrier County to a future in Pocahontas County.

Duncan soon falls in with the St. Lawrence Boom and Lumber Company, which owns the sawmill in Ronceverte. He soon becomes one of the crew and learns their ways, encountering colorful characters such as Windy Hammer, a man as skilled in tall tales as he is in his craft, Tad Stevens and Jim Noonan. As he learns the ways of timbering, he grows stronger in body, mind, and spirit. He falls in love with Martha Mendell, the beautiful daughter of his employer's business partner. Romantic tension is supplied by Arthur Hennessey, the son of a former Virginia governor.   Wealthy, pampered and callous, Arthur Hennessey is a darker aspect of Duncan 's former social rung. He is unaware that his ignorance of the so-called 'common man' has left him just as ignorant of the values of life.

At the end of the play, Duncan and his friends start up their own sawmill. Duncan marries Martha after her mother dies of consumption.

Riders on the Flood is performed solely in the Island Park Amphitheatre of Ronceverte, West Virginia—the same town and locale that saw the true lumbering industry during the latter half of the 19th century.

Historical work
Blackhurst's books resurrect the forests with a sharp, historical eye and a natural love of detail. The logging industry no longer depends on water-travel to deliver the logs from the headwaters to the sawmills, but during its heyday it meant respectable work for high pay.

Riders of the Flood is an historical work that involves romance, the pride of the working man, drama, and rollicking humor. Through it all the Greenbrier River and its northern tributaries of the watershed are the backdrop that unites everyone, rich or poor, friend or enemy. Blackhurst's books are spiced with historical photographs that emphasize the now-alien world where entire rivers were choked with giant logs and one's livelihood depended on spring floods.

The town of Ronceverte hosts the theater version of "Riders of the Flood" every September just downstream from the original site of the St. Lawrence Broom and Lumber Mill in Blackhurst's books. The play was written by a local artist, Robert Tuckwiller, who was given an out-of-print copy of the book by his father. Mr. Tuckwiller was so inspired by the book he wrote up the play and garnered permission to use it from Blackhurst's family. Riders of the Flood is now back in print and the theater provides revenue for the improvements of the city.

Egypt is an unincorporated community in northern Wharton County in the U.S. state of Texas. According to the Handbook of Texas, the community had a population of 26 in 2000. It is located within the Greater Houston metropolitan area.

History
Egypt was founded before any other settlement in Wharton County and was a part of Colorado County during the Republic of Texas period. Egypt is located on John C. Clark's league of land. Robert Kuykendall had land below Egypt, and Thomas Rabb had land north of the community. These three men were members of the Old Three Hundred. The Karankawa Indians preferred hunting along the Colorado River. Thanks to the efforts of these individuals, the area quickly became secure enough for others to settle in. Eli Mercer developed a plantation and ferry on the Colorado River at the San Felipe-Texana crossing in 1829, marking the beginning of the original community. A few miles from the river, where the road from Matagorda to Columbus crossed the San Felipe-Texana road, is where the community grew. When a severe drought caused it to supply nearby villages with grain, they started calling it Egypt. William J. E. Heard established Egypt Plantation in 1832 on the  he acquired from Clark and constructed his residence in what is now the city's center; his family was still living there in 1992. In November 1835, a post office was inaugurated with Mercer as the postmaster. Four different mail lines traveled through Egypt by 1840. Egypt has long been a hub for agriculture thanks to its rich soil; Mercer grew some of Texas's earliest sugarcane and Heard operated a cotton gin in 1836. Capt. Thomas Rabb assembled a company of troops in the vicinity of Egypt in February of that year. They, afterward, joined the First Regiment of Texas Mounted Rifle Volunteers as Company F. When Gen. Sam Houston arrived, they had already begun their long retreat across Texas and were at Gonzales. In San Jacinto, they formed the core of the Texas line and seized the Mexican cannons under the command of Captain W. J. E. Heard. Several residents who lived west of the Colorado congregated in Egypt during the Runaway Scrape in the hopes that Houston and the Texas army, which was positioned directly above Egypt, would stop the Mexicans from crossing the river. Texas Declaration of Independence signer William Menefee, Alamo courier Dr. John Sutherland, and Eli Mercer's son-in-law, publisher and inventor Gail Borden, all resided in Egypt. In May 1836, as the Mexican army was fleeing, Gen. Thomas J. Rusk and the Texas army established a temporary headquarters in Egypt. In 1837, the republic established Post Colorado. Egypt was served by a stagecoach line run by Andrew Northington, who was Heard's son-in-law, in 1839. A general store had a solid reputation by 1840 and served as the voting location for the first election, and it continued to serve as such for the 1990 primary in the community. Several entrepreneurial individuals constructed a railroad track in 1848. The carriages were drawn by horses, and the wooden rails were constructed from hard live oak. It ran between Egypt and Columbus. Mentor Northington constructed a new cotton gin just before the Civil War, which the family ran for more than a century. A sizable general commerce enterprise was established in Egypt by George H. Northington and Green C. Duncan in 1881. A sizable portion of the county's commercial and social life centered around the store. It had everything, including caskets, seeds, farm equipment, clothes, and groceries. When the new store was erected, the post office relocated there and stayed there until 1981, when a new brick structure was built a block away. A quarter horse racetrack was in use in Egypt from the 1930s until the start of World War II. Large groups of spectators came from all around South Texas on race days. In 1901, the Cane Belt Railroad was constructed through Egypt. In 1902, the line was sold to the Santa Fe, and in 1991, the service was halted, and the tracks were taken out. Egypt had about 26 people living there in 1990, according to estimates. There were 300 registered voters in the Egypt post office's service area in 1992. Twenty-six people were living there in 2000.

Egypt's 1827 name change from "Mercer's Crossing" came from the Bible, and originated from the text of Genesis 42:1-3.
