  • A House Fit for a Queen:Wingfieldhouse In Tacket Street,Ipswichand Its Heraldicroom
    A HOUSE FIT FOR A QUEEN:WINGFIELDHOUSE IN TACKET STREET,IPSWICHAND ITS HERALDICROOM byDIARMAIDMACCULLOCHANDJOHN BLATCHLY 'At Ipswich the Queen lodged in the house lately built by Sir Humphrey Wingfield to be fit for any degree of wealth or rank whatsoever, as I believe, with the intention that the first- fruits of the presence of the most excellent queen in all Europe on the morrow of her victory might be a perpetual distinction to his son Robert Wingfield . So wrote the Suffolkhistorian Robert Wingfieldof Brantham, swellingwith pride that he had been host at his Ipswichhome to Queen Mary on the morrow of her successful coupd'etatagainst the Duke of Northumberland in 1553.2All but a vestige of the original house has been demolished over the centuries, but fortunately what remains in 1992 is of great interest and significance.Substantial parts of the carved oak panelling from the principal room The Great Parlour' line the WingfieldRoom in Christchurch Mansion, Ipswich, and other traces of its lost grandeur surviveelsewhere,together with some documentary accounts. This room, which was the particular glory of the house, had some remarkable painted inscriptions which together with a richly ornate heraldic ceiling formed one of the most spectacular of such ensembles in Tudor East Anglia. It is the object of this paper to assess the dating and significanceof what was displayedin the room and to establishthe importance of one of Ipswich'salmost vanished historicbuildings. I THE SETTING:THE LOCATIONOF HOUSEANDROOM There is a good deal of confusion about the exact positions and extents of the mansions of three eminent and wealthy Tudor worthies who lived as near neighbours in St Stephen's parish in Ipswich.

  • The Summits of Modern Man: Mountaineering After the Enlightenment (Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 2013)
    Bibliography Peter H. Hansen, The Summits of Modern Man: Mountaineering after the Enlightenment (Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 2013) This bibliography consists of works cited in The Summits of Modern Man along with a few references to citations that were cut during editing. It does not include archival sources, which are cited in the notes. A bibliography of works consulted (printed or archival) would be even longer and more cumbersome. The print and ebook editions of The Summits of Modern Man do not include a bibliography in accordance with Harvard University Press conventions. Instead, this online bibliography provides links to online resources. For books, Worldcat opens the collections of thousands of libraries and Harvard HOLLIS records often provide richer bibliographical detail. For articles, entries include Digital Object Identifiers (doi) or stable links to online editions when available. Some older journals or newspapers have excellent, freely-available online archives (for examples, see Journal de Genève, Gazette de Lausanne, or La Stampa, and Gallica for French newspapers or ANNO for Austrian newspapers). Many publications still require personal or institutional subscriptions to databases such as LexisNexis or Factiva for access to back issues, and those were essential resources. Similarly, many newspapers or books otherwise in the public domain can be found in subscription databases. This bibliography avoids links to such databases except when unavoidable (such as JSTOR or the publishers of many scholarly journals). Where possible, entries include links to full-text in freely-accessible resources such as Europeana, Gallica, Google Books, Hathi Trust, Internet Archive, World Digital Library, or similar digital libraries and archives.

  • Common Errors in English by Paul Brians [email protected]
    Common Errors in English by Paul Brians [email protected] http://www.wsu.edu/~brians/errors/ (Brownie points to anyone who catches inconsistencies between the main site and this version.) Note that italics are deliberately omitted on this page. What is an error in English? The concept of language errors is a fuzzy one. I'll leave to linguists the technical definitions. Here we're concerned only with deviations from the standard use of English as judged by sophisticated users such as professional writers, editors, teachers, and literate executives and personnel officers. The aim of this site is to help you avoid low grades, lost employment opportunities, lost business, and titters of amusement at the way you write or speak. But isn't one person's mistake another's standard usage? Often enough, but if your standard usage causes other people to consider you stupid or ignorant, you may want to consider changing it. You have the right to express yourself in any manner you please, but if you wish to communicate effectively you should use nonstandard English only when you intend to, rather than fall into it because you don't know any better. I'm learning English as a second language. Will this site help me improve my English? Very likely, though it's really aimed at the most common errors of native speakers. The errors others make in English differ according to the characteristics of their first languages. Speakers of other languages tend to make some specific errors that are uncommon among native speakers, so you may also want to consult sites dealing specifically with English as a second language (see http://www.cln.org/subjects/esl_cur.html and http://esl.about.com/education/adulted/esl/).

Men’s field Stanley Biwott (KEN) will make his Bank of America Chicago Marathon debut as the seventh- fastest man in history over the marathon distance (2:03:51) and the 11th-fastest in history over the half marathon on a record-eligible course (58:56). Biwott made his mark in the Abbott World Marathon Majors with a victory at the 2015 TCS New York City Marathon, and with a standout performance at the 2016 London Marathon, finishing second to Eliud Kipchoge (KEN) in a career best, 2:03:51 (Biwott and Kipchoge share the 30K world record, 1:27:13, set during the London Marathon). Biwott has finished in the top five of 10 marathons. Feyisa Lilesa (ETH) gained international attention at the 2016 Rio Olympics when he finished the marathon with a silver medal. However, he initially made a name for himself in 2010 when, just two months after his 20th birthday, he became the youngest athlete to break 2:06 in the marathon with a 2:05:23 performance in Rotterdam. He has run well in Chicago, finishing third in 2010 and coming back in 2012 to chase Tsegaye Kebede (ETH) to the line for second place and a new personal best, 2:04:52.

Pinning the Daffodil and Singing Proudly: An American's Search for Modern Meaning in Ancestral Ties Abstract This paper is a collection of my personal experiences with the Welsh culture, both as a celebration of heritage in America and as a way of life in Wales. Using my family’s ancestral link to Wales as a narrative base, I trace the connections between Wales and America over the past century and look closely at how those ties have changed over time. The piece focuses on five location-based experiences—two in America and three in Wales—that each changed the way I interpret Welsh culture as a fifth-generation Welsh-American.
