    De uitvinding werd getest in droogmakerij Bleiswijk in 1775-1776. Er werd een jaar lang met 4 molens , 2 standaard scheprad en 2 met hellend rad, meer dan 160 proeven gedaan , de uitkomst was licht in het voordeel van hellend scheprad . De proeven werden beschreven door wiskundige B.J.Douwes zie books.google.nl/books In de Bataafs-Franse tijd is er opnieuw belangstelling voor dit ontwerp, zie archief inspecteurs van Waterstaat 2.16.06 inv. nr 690 Nationaal Archief . web2ontdekker 23archiefdingen

    Wow, Ticking the "Show all information" box, I see Children Born: 11, Children Living 8
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Niall McAuley Somehow "Landscape Photographer" doesn't do what he did justice! Do you think Mrs French was dead or away from home on census night?

    In 1911, French is 69 and a widower. I can't immediately find him, Annie or Mary in the 1901 census.

Young girls competing at the Royal Academy of Dancing (London) exams held in Brisbane and Toowoomba, 1938

  • Vesna Verencevic said:
    The Royal Academy of Dance method, also referred to as the English style of ballet, was established in 1920 by Genee, Karsavina, Bedells, E Espinosa, and Richardson. The goal of this method is to promote academic training in classical ballet throughout Great Britain. This style also spread to the United States, and is widely utilized still today. There are specific grade levels which a student must move through in order to complete training in this method. The key principle behind this method of instruction is that basic ballet technique must be taught at a slow pace, with difficulty progression often much slower than the rest of the methods. The idea behind this is if a student is to put in a large amount of effort into perfecting the basic steps, the technique learned in these steps allow a student to utilize harder ones at a much easier rate.
