This too was demolished in 1938, and today only a single corner tower of the 17th-century castle remains. The castle was the former family seat of the Prime Minister, Sir Alec Douglas-Home. The castle was located around 1 km north-east of the village of Douglas, South Lanarkshire, in south-west Scotland. The remains are protected as a category C listed building.
Title: Douglas (surname)
Passage: Douglas (occasionally spelled "Douglass") is a common surname of Scottish origin, thought to derive from the Gaelic "dubh glas", meaning "black stream". There are numerous places in Scotland from which the surname is derived. The surname has developed into the given name "Douglas". "Douglas" is a habitational name, which could be derived from any of the many places so-named. While there are numerous places with this name in Scotland, it is thought, in most cases, to refer to Douglas, South Lanarkshire, the location of Douglas Castle, the chief stronghold of the Lords of Douglas. The Scottish Gaelic form of the given name is "Dbhghlas"; the Irish language form it is "Dghlas", and "Dubhghlas", which are pronounced ] . According to George Fraser Black, in southern Argyllshire the surname is an Anglicised form of the surnames "MacLucas", "MacLugash" (which are derived from the Gaelic "Mac Lcais").
Title: Olallieberry
Passage: The olallieberry (pronounced oh-la-leh, sometimes spelled ollalieberry, olallaberry, olalliberry, ollalaberry or ollaliberry) is the marketing name for the 'Olallie' blackberry released by the USDA-ARS (in collaboration with Oregon State University) that was a selection from a cross between the 'Black Logan' (syn. 'Mammoth'), developed by Judge James Logan in California, and the youngberry, which was developed by Byrnes M. Young in Louisiana. According to Judge Logan, 'Black Logan' was from a cross between the eastern blackberry 'Crandall' and the western dewberry 'Aughinbaugh'. ' Youngberry' was from a cross of 'Phenomenal' x 'Austin Mayes'. 'Phenomenal' in turn is a cross of the 'Aughinbaugh' western dewberry and 'Cuthbert' red raspberry and so has a very similar background to Logan's 'Loganberry' and shares a parent with his 'Black Logan'.
Title: Matheson (surname)
Passage: Matheson is a surname derived from the patronymic form of a short form of the English "Matthew". This English personal name is ultimately derived from the Hebrew "Mattathia", which means "gift of God". An early record form of the surname "Matheson" is "Mathyson", recorded in 1392; this recorded name literally means "son of "Mathi"""Mathi" being a pet form of "Matthew". Two different Scottish Gaelic surnames have been Anglicised "Matheson". One such surname is "Mac Mhathghamhuin" (Clan Matheson), which became Anglicised "Matheson" on account of its similar sound. This Gaelic surname is of an entirely different etymology than "Matheson", as the Gaelic "mathghamhuin" means "bear". Another Gaelic surname Anglicised "Matheson" is "Mac Matha". This Gaelic surname is derived from the patronymic form of a Gaelic form of "Matthew" (for example, the modern Scottish Gaelic "Mata" and "Matha" are cognates of the English "Matthew").

Title: United States v. Ramsey (1926)
Passage: United States v. Ramsey, 271 U.S. 467 (1926) , was a U.S. Supreme Court case in which the Court held that the government had the authority to prosecute crimes against Native Americans (Indians) on reservation land that was still designated Indian Country by federal law. The Osage Indian Tribe held mineral rights that were worth millions of dollars. A white rancher, William K. Hale, devised a plot to kill tribal members to allow his nephew, who was married to a tribal member, to inherit the mineral rights. The tribe requested the assistance of the federal government, which sent Bureau of Investigation agents to solve the murders. Hale and several others were arrested and tried for the murders, but they claimed that the federal government did not have jurisdiction. The district court quashed the indictments, but on appeal, the Supreme Court reversed, holding that the Osage lands were Indian Country and that the federal government therefore had jurisdiction. This put an end to the Osage Indian murders.

Title: Active Archive Alliance
Passage: The Active Archive Alliance is a trade association that promotes a method of tiered storage which gives the user access to data across a virtual file system that migrates data between multiple storage systems and media types including solid-state driveflash, hard disk drives, magnetic tape, optical disk, and cloud.

This allows less time sensitive or infrequently accessed data to be stored on less expensive media, and eliminates the need for an administrator to manually migrate data between storage systems. Additionally since storage systems such as tape libraries have very low power consumption, the operational expense of storing data in an active archive is greatly reduced.

Title: Edvard Grieg

Title: Little Boy Blue (poem)
Passage: "Little Boy Blue" is a poem by Eugene Field about the death of a child, a sentimental but beloved theme in 19th century poetry. Contrary to popular belief, the poem is not about the death of Field's son, who died several years after its publication.

Title: Polyferrocenes
Passage: Polyferrocenes are polymers containing ferrocene units. Ferrocene offers many advantages over pure hydrocarbons when used as a building block of macromolecular chemistry. It is temperature stable, resistant to acids and alkalis, resistant to air and can be easily manufactured from inexpensive raw materials. The variety of possible substitutions at the ferrocene parent body results in a multitude of accessible polymers with interesting electronic and photonic properties. Many polyferrocenes are relatively easily accessible. Poly(1,1'-ferrocene-silane) can be prepared by ring-opening polymerization and has a variety of interesting properties, such as a high refractive index or semiconductor properties. Ring-opening polymerization usually leads to polymers containing ferrocene in the backbone. Besides the latter motif, ferrocene can be attached to the backbone as pendant unit as well. ref name"DOI10.1039c6cs00196c"Rudolf Pietschnig: "Polymers with pendant ferrocenes."

What type of films are both the Vanishing of the Bees and For the Bible Tells Me So?
|
Title: Bumblebee communication
Passage: Bumblebees ("Bombus" spp.) , like the honeybee ("Apis" spp.) collect nectar and pollen from flowers and store them for food. Many individuals must be recruited to forage for food to provide the hive. Some bee species have highly developed ways of communicating with each other about the location and quality of food resources ranging from physical to chemical displays. Honey bees are known for their specialized dances, such as the waggle dance which recruit other bees to the precise location of the food source. Bumblebees are not capable of transmitting this type of detailed information. Instead, the nest serves as a hub where bees receive information about the foraging bouts of her conspecifics. Differences between the communication methods of honeybees and bumblebees are mainly due to differences in colony size and nest structure. Bumblebees are distinct from honeybees because they lack receiver bees (bees in the nest which receive pollen and nectar from incoming foragers during unloading) and are not capable of trophallaxis (the transfer of nectar from one bee to another). They deposit collected nectar directly into the honey pots and dont share information of the quality of the resource with other bees through nectar transfer. Another bee may sample the nectar brought into the nest, and if the colony is in need of food or the nectar is high quality she will likely go out foraging herself. Other means of alerting passive bees to a potentially rewarding resource include releasing pheromone signals and increasing physical activity. For information on communication methods in Honey Bees see Bee learning and communication.

The M1947 Johnson auto carbine was intended as a replacement for a .30 caliber semi-automatic rifle that was standard US service rifle during World War II, the Korean War, and a limited amount when?
|
Title: M20 recoilless rifle
Passage: The M20 recoilless rifle was a U.S. 75 mm caliber recoilless rifle used during the last months of the Second World War and extensively during the Korean War. It could be fired from an M1917A1 .30 caliber machine gun tripod, or from a vehicle mount, typically a Jeep. Its shaped charge warhead, also known as HEAT, was capable of penetrating 100 mm of armor. Although the weapon proved ineffective against the T-34 tank during the Korean War, it was used primarily as a close infantry support weapon to engage all types of targets including infantry and lightly armored vehicles. The M20 proved useful against pillboxes and other types of field fortifications.
Title: M1 Garand
Passage: The M1 Garand is a .30 caliber semi-automatic rifle that was the standard U.S. service rifle during World War II and the Korean War and also saw limited service during the Vietnam War. Most M1 rifles were issued to U.S. forces, though many hundreds of thousands were also provided as foreign aid to American allies. The Garand is still used by drill teams and military honor guards. It is also widely used by civilians for hunting, target shooting, and as a military collectible.
Title: M1947 Johnson auto carbine
Passage: The M1947 Johnson auto carbine is a semi-automatic derivative of the M1941 Johnson machine gun. It was intended as a replacement of the M1 rifle but not accepted. The auto carbine never got past the prototype stage, only five of them ever being made.
Title: AK-22
Passage: An AK-22 "Trainer" is a semi-automatic rifle loosely based upon the AK-47 in its design, and chambered in .22 long rifle calibre. The firearm currently sold on the civilian market in the United States of America dubbed as the AK-22 "Trainer" is manufactured in Romania by "S.C. Uzinele Mecanice Cugir S.A". Despite the common belief, the AK-22 is not normally used to train regular troops either in Romania or in other countries. While until recently the use of rimfire rifles replicating the standard service rifles in its dimensions and features had been common in several countries for training soldiers in basic firearms handling and marksmanship, at present this use has been abandoned due to the enormous availability of service weapons and ammunition already in stock, and the fact that a rimfire rifle, with its low recoil, doesn't help accustom a recruit to the recoil of the regulation rifle they will use in their normal service life; rimfire rifles are however used in many countries for basic firearms handling and standard marksmanship training within Armed Forces' "Youth Corps" (Cadets). The AK-22 is thus intended merely as a civilian sporter rifle. Its average price ranges within 200 and 500 US.
