George Lewith (12 January 1950 – 17 March 2017) was a professor at the University of Southampton researching alternative medicine and a practitioner of complementary medicine. He was a prominent and sometimes controversial advocate of complementary medicine in the UK.
Education and career
Lewith graduated from Trinity College, Cambridge in medicine and biochemistry. He then went on to Westminster Medical School to complete his clinical studies and began working clinically in 1974. In 1977 Lewith became a member of the Royal College of Physicians. Then, in 1980, he became a member of the Royal College of General Practitioners and, later in 1999, was elected a fellow of the Royal College of Physicians.
At the time of his death, he was a Professor of Health Research in the Department of Primary Care at the University of Southampton and a director of the International Society for Complementary Medicine Research. Lewith obtained a significant number of institutional peer reviewed fellowships at doctoral and post-doctoral level and was principal investigator or collaborator in research grants totally over £5 million during the last decade.
Between 1980 and 2010, Lewith was a partner at the Centre for Complementary and Integrated Medicine, a private practice providing complementary treatments with clinics in London and Southampton.
Research
Lewith's research has ranged across several areas of complementary medicine. This has involved examining how complementary techniques might be investigated and the development of new research methodology to evaluate complementary techniques, as well as the collection of primary research data concerning a variety of complementary techniques. His primary research has included examinations of the clinical effects of acupuncture and possible acupuncture mechanisms, the effects of distant and present healing, the clinical effects of homoeopathy, the effects and activity of herbal medicine, the clinical effects of the Alexander technique and the use and effectiveness of a variety of nutritional supplements and herbs. Lewith has also co-authored several studies indicating a lack of specific efficacy in some complementary therapies and techniques.
He has also investigated how and why people use complementary medicine and is currently involved in two major EU projects. One looking at the use, delivery and possible future research strategies of complementary medicine in Europe and another relating to the use and investigation of Chinese herbal medicines within a European context.
In his career, Lewith has published over 330 peer-reviewed publications, authored several books and contributed to several others.
Broadcasting, advocacy and controversy
Lewith was a council member of the Foundation for Integrated Medicine and later a foundation fellow of the Prince of Wales' Foundation for Integrated Health, a controversial charity that promoted complementary medicine and has since closed. The Foundation for Integrated Medicine became the Prince of Wales' Foundation for Integrated Health in 2000. In an article, Lewith described his research unit at the University of Southampton as having played an important role in the development of the foundation, with especial regard to its research and development agenda.
In 1997, Lewith presented a documentary series examining complementary medicine for Channel 4 called Natural Born Healers. The series won a Royal Television Society award for its programme on herbalism. However, the series also drew criticism from Dr. Peter May and colleagues at the Grove Medical Practice in Southampton, who had cooperated with the programme, in a complaint to HealthWatch. A book of the same title as the documentary series and co-authored by Lewith accompanied the series.
In 2004 he participated in a radio series presented by Anna Ford about complementary medicine co-produced by BBC Radio 4 and the Open University, titled The Other Medicine.
A 2006 BBC documentary series, Alternative Medicine, was criticised by several people, including Lewith, in the Guardian over a controversial sequence in which acupuncture appeared to be used as a replacement for general anaesthesia during open heart surgery. Lewith had participated in the series as an advisor, but criticised the programme for inappropriate sensationalism and poor interpretation of science.
In criticisms published in the British Medical Journal, both Jane Cassidy and David Colquhoun criticise Lewith, claiming that he prescribes homoeopathy despite having written papers that conclude it doesn't work. Lewith has conducted research suggesting that the homeopathic remedy has no effect, and other research suggesting that, while the homeopathic medicine itself does not appear to have an effect, the homeopathic consultation has a clinically relevant non-specific effect.

The Miller’s Reach Fire, also known as the Big Lake Fire, was a wildfire that began on June 2, 1996 in an area around Miller’s Reach Road near Houston, Alaska, approximately north of Anchorage, Alaska. The fire burned over , destroyed at least 344 structures, and caused more than $10 million in damage to structures and property. The fire was at the time the most destructive in Alaska history, consuming more structures than all other wildfires in Alaskan history combined. 37 fire departments and 1,800 firefighting and support personnel responded to the fire. It took nearly two weeks to completely control the fire.
Circumstances before the fire
The region where the fire occurred consists of flat terrain with occasional low rolling hills less than in height. Boreal forest predominates in the area, composed mostly of black spruce, with some birch, alder, white spruce, and cottonwood. A very thick undergrowth was present at the time of the fire.
A drought began in the area in September of 1995, some nine months before the fire. During the winter of 1995/1996, the area received less than 30% of its normal precipitation. Due to the lack of snowfall, the ground froze to a depth of as much as . With the ground frozen so deep, the spring thaw of accumulated snow ran off into streams in the area rather than being subsumed into the ground. Drought conditions with humidities lower than 25% persisted in the region prior to the inception of the fire.
Evolution of the fire
Around 4:00 p.m. local time on June 2, a fire began in the Miller's Reach Road area. The fire was contained within six hours after burning approximately . A few hot spots remained, which were expected to be resolved by the next day.
On June 3, the weather during the day consisted of light winds out of the southwest, fair skies, and moderate humidity. A cold front passed through the area, and by 7:20 p.m. the winds had shifted around into the northwest and had increased to and humidity had dropped to 20%. The fire reignited and spread out of control. As a result of the sustained drought, the predominant black spruce were drier than normal and became the primary fuel for the fire. This resulted in a crown fire. Within four hours, the fire had spread south . The Alaska Division of Forestry incident commander called for an evacuation of neighborhoods in the Big Lake area. Many people defied the evacuation order, including Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race champion Martin Buser. By the evening, were involved in the fire.
On the morning of June 4, a red flag warning was issued by the Anchorage Weather Service Forecast Office, due to high winds, high temperatures, and low humidity. The fire continued to rapidly spread through the canopy of the forest. The fire reached the northeast shore of Big Lake by the afternoon. The fire had burned . The initial command and control center was placed at Houston High School, about three miles southeast of the ignition point of the fire. As the fire and the response from local, state and federal authorities grew, a unified command structure was established at Creekside Plaza in Wasilla, Alaska, about 12 miles further east. Governor Tony Knowles issued a State Disaster Declaration.
By June 5, the fire had spread west along the north shore and south along the east shore of Big Lake. Winds gusted to more than from both the north and the southeast during the day, but dropped to a light breeze later in the day. Smoke rose as high as into the sky.
By June 7, reports indicated the fire was slowing down. On June 8, President Clinton signed Federal Disaster Declaration AK-1119-DR, making federal disaster relief funding available. This funding eventually exceeded $8 million. On June 10, the fire was declared to be contained. On June 15, the fire was declared to be under control.
Aftermath
The Big Lake, Alaska area suffered significant and sustained economic loss. Rail and road transportation between Anchorage and Fairbanks was temporarily cut off. Following the fire, funds exceeding $1.5 million were made available for wildfire mitigation measures.
In 1998, a class action lawsuit seeking approximately $100 million in damages was brought against the State of Alaska alleging the state mismanaged the fire. In 2003, a unanimous jury ruled in favor of the state.

The New Tempe Arena was a proposed sports facility to be constructed in Tempe, Arizona which would have served as home arena for the Arizona Coyotes of the National Hockey League (NHL). This was part of a conceptual $1.7 billion Tempe Entertainment District. The proposal also included hotels, retail, apartments, and a theater. It was rejected by Tempe voters on May 16, 2023.
Design & Construction
After years of informal negotiations between City of Tempe Economic Development Manager Maria Laughner and Arizona Coyotes management, the Coyotes proposed a 16,000-seat arena that would be located on a parcel of city owned land adjacent to the Salt River. The project would be built on an old city dump site, requiring remediation and would also have to relocate the city's municipal maintenance and storage facility currently on the site.
History
On June 2, 2022, the Tempe City Council voted 5 to 2 to begin formal negotiations with the Coyotes, with a final agreement at least several months later. The City of Phoenix implied that litigation over development around the arena is likely if Tempe approves the development the Coyotes proposed. The FAA would have to approve all building heights and locations, as the proposed arena is directly under the centerline of runway 7L/25R. The Coyotes are also seeking city sales tax revenues and a 30 year waiver of property taxes to help pay for $200 million in additional costs, including infrastructure work.
On May 16, 2023, The Tempe voters have voted no on the new arena and entertainment district. The Coyotes have looked into Mesa’s Fiesta Mall as a different site for a new arena.
Concerns
Due to the site location, Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport officials have expressed concerns that the Tempe Entertainment District will cause a risk for inbound and outbound aircraft. Phoenix is also concerned that residential uses would occur within the 65db contour, violating a 1994 intergovernmental agreement between Tempe and Phoenix. In 2001, a similar roadblock prevented the Arizona Cardinals from building a stadium near Rio Salado Parkway, which resulted in them moving to Glendale in 2006. Local residents have also raised concerns about the community’s cost-benefit based on traffic congestion, quality of employment opportunities and impact on adjacent neighborhoods.

Isidoro Ngei Ko Lat (17 September 1918 – 24 May 1950) was a catechist from Myanmar who was killed in 1950. He was beatified in 2014.
Biography
Isidoro Ngei Ko Lat was the son of peasants and the priest Dominic Pedrotti baptized him on 7 September 1918. His parents died when he was young and both he and his younger brother were cared for by their aunt and uncle. By 1925, he began attending primary school in his village.
As he grew older, he expressed a desire to serve God and his vocation led him to the minor seminary of Saint Teresa where he studied for six years until World War II started. During the war, he returned to his village and became a teacher where he opened a school for the village children.
In 1946, Mario Vergara arrived for his mission in Myanmar, and he met Ko Lat. He ultimately decided that Ko Lat would join him in his missionary work. After the 1948 independence of Myanmar, he and Vergara were threatened by the guerillas in Myanmar and the two were murdered.
Beatification
The Congregation for the Causes of Saints approved the cause of beatification which commenced on 23 October 2001. This bestowed upon him the title of Servant of God. Pope Francis approved his and Mario Vergara's martyrdom on 9 December 2013, thus, allowing for their beatification. Cardinal Angelo Amato represented the pope at the beatification on 24 May 2014.

The Bogotá Savannah Railway was a company that provided transport for passengers from 1889 between the cities of the Metropolitan Area of Bogotá. The Savannah railway was liquidated in 1991 along with the National Railways of Colombia.
Currently, and from 1992, one of its lines (Northern line) was enabled to function as tourist train called Tren Turistico de la Sabana.
History
The construction of the Savannah Railway was authorized in 1873 and begun in 1882 by a British company. The works were suspended in 1886 when its length was just 18 km. A new contract was made with an American venture called “Savannah Railway Company”. When the line was inaugurated its length was 40 km. In 1887 a new contract took place for the construction of the Zipaquira line. In time, the railways expanded across the Bogotá Savannah reaching a length of about 200 km.
In 1917 the Estacion de la Sabana was built by the English engineer William Lidstone; this building served as Central Station for the national railway as well. Its location was on the outskirts of the city on the west (today Calle 13).
The last expansion of the Bogotá Savannah Railway occurred in 1953. By that time the Railway's service covered the following towns: Chapinero, Usaquen, Sopo, Tocancipa, Nemocon, Suesca, Gachancipa, Cajica, Fontibon, Madrid, Mosquera, Facatativa, Bosa, Soacha, Sibate and Usme.

McElroy Creek is a tributary of Middle Island Creek, long, in northern West Virginia in the United States. Via Middle Island Creek and the Ohio River, it is part of the watershed of the Mississippi River, draining an area of in a rural region on the unglaciated portion of the Allegheny Plateau.
Geography
McElroy Creek is formed near the unincorporated community of Center Point in northern Doddridge County by the confluence of two streams:
the Robinson Fork, long, which rises in Doddridge County approximately northwest of the city of Salem and flows northward and northwestward, through Sedalia
the Pike Fork, long, which rises in Doddridge County approximately northeast of Sedalia and flows westward.
A short distance downstream of this confluence, it collects a third significant headwaters tributary, the Talkington Fork.
From Center Point, McElroy Creek flows generally westward into eastern Tyler County, through the unincorporated community of Ashley in Doddridge County and the unincorporated communities of Little Pittsburg and Shirley in Tyler County, collecting Flint Run, its largest tributary, on the boundary of Doddridge and Tyler Counties. It flows into Middle Island Creek from the east, a short distance southwest of the community of Tyler. The creek is paralleled by West Virginia Route 23 for most of its course.
According to the Geographic Names Information System, the creek has also been known historically by the spelling "McElroys Creek."
History
The earliest white settler on McElroy Creek — and its namesake — was John McElroy who was killed by Indians near where it discharges into Middle Island Creek. This was likely in the early 1790s, as the natives had effectively been expelled by 1795. The "Three Forks of McElroy Creek" (near present Center Point) were first settled in 1812 by brothers Joshua Allen (1787-1867) and Israel Allen (1792-1853). This was then in District 19 of Harrison (later Doddridge) County. The district was renamed McClellan District after the American Civil War.

The Boonton Public Schools is a comprehensive community public school district that serves students in pre-kindergarten through twelfth grade from Boonton, in Morris County, New Jersey, United States.
As of the 2020–21 school year, the district, comprised of three schools, had an enrollment of 1,457 students and 132.8 classroom teachers (on an FTE basis), for a student–teacher ratio of 11.0:1.
The district is classified by the New Jersey Department of Education as being in District Factor Group "I", the second-highest of eight groupings. District Factor Groups organize districts statewide to allow comparison by common socioeconomic characteristics of the local districts. From lowest socioeconomic status to highest, the categories are A, B, CD, DE, FG, GH, I and J.
The district's high school serves students from Boonton and also those from Lincoln Park, who attend as part of a sending/receiving relationship with the Lincoln Park Public Schools, with Lincoln Park students accounting for a majority of students at the high school. The two districts have sought to sever the more-than-50-year-old relationship, citing cost savings that could be achieved by both districts and complaints by Lincoln Park that it is granted only one seat on the Boonton Public Schools' Board of Education, less than the number of seats that would be allocated based on the percentage of students of population. In April 2006, the commissioner of the New Jersey Department of Education rejected the request.
Schools
Schools in the district (with 2020–21 enrollment statistics from the National Center for Education Statistics) are:
Elementary schools
School Street School with 258 students in grades PreK-2
Alison Schessler, principal
John Hill School with 537 students in grades 3–8
Sara Brogan, principal for grades 6-8
Thomas Valle, principal for grades 3-5
High school
Boonton High School with 636 students in grades 9–12
Jason Klebez, principal
Debra Ballway, vice principal
Edward Forman, vice principal
Administration
Core members of the district's administration are:
Robert Presuto, superintendent
Steven Gardberg, business administrator and board secretary
Board of education
The district's board of education is comprised of nine members who set policy and oversee the fiscal and educational operation of the district through its administration; an additional member represents Lincoln Park. As a Type II school district, the board's trustees are elected directly by voters to serve three-year terms of office on a staggered basis, with three seats up for election each year held (since 2012) as part of the November general election. The board appoints a superintendent to oversee the district's day-to-day operations and a business administrator to supervise the business functions of the district.

Nabil Sawalha () is a Jordanian comedian, born near the city of Madaba in 1941. His family, especially his mother, encouraged him and his brother Nadim Sawalha, a British actor, to pursue a career in acting, which was not a normal career path in Jordan at the time. Sawalha began his theatre career by acting in BBC radio plays in 1950s while studying engineering in the UK. In 1962, he returned to Jordan and joined the Jordanian National Theatre Group. In 1968, Sawalha formed his own production company, Urdon Co., and began producing series for local and regional Arab networks, such as “Tamara”.
Career
Sawalha’s major breakthrough came in 1980 with his own television series, “Beinee wa Beinak” (Between me and you). In 1990, Sawalha met Hisham Yanes, a former colleague from the Jordanian National Theatre Group, who returned to Jordan from Kuwait and the two were urged to collaborate. The duo was formed in an era of democratization and liberalization in the kingdom, allowing them to push boundaries beyond previous limits, Sawalha noted. Their first television program, “Ahlan Nabil and Hisham”, was aired in the winter of 1991, and the pair began the annual tradition of launching a new play every Ramadan.
In 1992, the pair staged their most daring play: “Hello Arab Summits.” All modern Arab leaders were lampooned in the wide-ranging piece, which covered periods between 1964 and the 1991 Gulf War.
Another turning point in Jordan’s history became yet another milestone in Sawalha’s career when the Kingdom signed the 1994 Wadi Araba Peace Treaty. That year the comedy duo (Nabeel &Hisham) came out with “Peace oh Peace,” a play satirizing wars in the region. In 1995, they performed in Israel and the Palestinian occupied territories. The tour prompted a short-lived blacklisting of the duo theatrical performances in Jordan and stirred criticism from the Jordanian Anti-Normalization Committee.
In 1997, after six years with seven successful plays and several television series, Sawalha went back to England for four years, during which he produced two plays focusing on Arab-Americans in UK: “Hello Arabs of London" and "Divided Hearts," before returning to Amman in 2001.
After 2001, Sawalha made few appearances on MBC pan-Arab TV. He also cooperated with Kharabeesh, which produced for him several stand-up comedy video clips.

Markt Indersdorf is a municipality in the district of Dachau in Bavaria in Germany.
Geography
Markt Indersdorf is located on the Glonn River. The Glonn divides the two main towns Markt Indersdorf and Kloster(monastery) Indersdorf. Markt Indersdorf is the largest town in the Dachau hinterland with a central location within the Dachau district. The closest villages are Langenpettenbach, Engelbrechtsmühle, Glonn, Karphofen, Strassbach, and Untermoosmühle. Other villages further out are Ainhofen, Eichstock, Langenpettenbach and Hirtlbach.
History
The area around Indersdorf has been inhabited by humans for thousands of years. Remains of Celtic/Vindelici structures near Arnzell (between Indersdorf and Altomünster) have been discovered. A Roman road that went from Salzburg to Augsburg passed through a forest south-east of Indersdorf. The road would later be used for oxen/cattle trading in the Middle Ages.
The place name "Indersdorf" may refer to the Bavarian name "Undeo" or "Undio", who worked as a clergyman in Indersdorf in the 9th century.
Indersdorf was first mentioned in a document in 972 AD.
An Augustinian monastery and church, in honor of the Assumption of Mary (Klosterkirche Maria Himmelfahrt) was founded in 1120 by order of Count Otto IV. von Wittelsbach, as atonement for his sins for kidnapping Pope Paschal II during a military campaign in Italy with Emperor Henry V in 1111 AD. The church and monastery formed an economic and spiritual center of the area. In 1223 the monks founded a monastery school. During the Thirty Years' War the town was looted by the Swedes in 1632 and in 1634. In 1635 the plague broke out.
In 1704, during the War of the Spanish Succession, an army of English and Austrian troops crossed the Danube River and began to plunder sections of Bavaria. The monks at the monastery in Indersdorf had to flee to Munich. According to one church record: "because after the Battle of Höchstädt the enemy troops penetrated in full force into Bavaria via Augsburg and plundered everything in Indersdorf on August 19th".
The monastery pharmacy was built in 1790, followed by a monastery brewery in 1803, now converted into a 'Wirsthaus' and 'Biergarten' since 2016.
In 1856 the Sisters of Mercy of St. Vincint de Paul began to operate the monastery and set up an orphanage. Since the 1990s, the monastery is no longer active but the Archdiocese of Munich and Freising now owns the church and property.
A hospital was built in Indersdorf in 1869, which still exists to this day.
In 1882, by proclamation of King Ludwig II, the name of the community was officially changed from Indersdorf to Markt Indersdorf. This means the town now has the right to hold large public markets (German: Marktrecht).
In 1912/1913 the first railway line between Dachau and Altomünster passed through Markt Indersdorf.
In 1938, a children's home was set up in the monastery. During World War II, a “children's barracks” was built in 1944 for infants of foreign forced laborers from the Soviet Union and Poland, most of whom were the result of abuse. 32 children housed there died from inadequate care and malnutrition. After the Second World War, the United Nations Relief and Rehabilitation Administration set up a reception camp for minors persecuted by National Socialism in the former monastery.
After the Bavarian region reforms of 1972, several nearby communities were incorporated into Markt Indersdorf.
At the beginning of the 21st century, Markt Indersdorf has grown to become the central location of the Dachau district. There have been various infrastructure improvements such as better traffic routes, school structure, clinical care, economy and trade. The electrification of the S-Bahn commuter train line (S2) on the Altomünster-Dachau route was completed in 2014.
In 2020 Markt Indersdorf celebrated its 900th anniversary of the founding of the monastery and church. However many of the festivities were cancelled due to the Covid-19 Pandemic in Germany.
Political
The current mayor (Bürgermeister) of Markt Indersdorf is Franz Obesser (CSU) since 2014.
The population of Markt Indersdorf, as of 2019, is 10,921 people.
Culture and Sports
Markt Indersdorf offers numerous hiking and biking trails, which lead through the Glonn Valley and the varied hilly landscapes.
An original tower from the Middle Ages (the 'Schneiderturm', near the monastery church) has been converted into a Museum (Augustiner-Chorherren-Museum) since 2014.
The Indersdorfer Volksfest takes place every summer.
There is an annual Adventsmarkt in the monastery church square before Christmas.
There is also an annual Carnaval Parade (Fasching) through Indersdorf the Sunday before Ash Wednesday.
The sports club in the town is TSV Indersdorf 1907 e.V.
Near Markt Indersdorf is the 18-hole golf course 'Gut Häusern'.

Tor Leisure Ground, previously known as Morlands Athletic Ground until 1986, is a former first-class cricket ground located in Glastonbury, Somerset. It hosted first-class matches for Somerset County Cricket Club between 1952 – 1973, and List A cricket between 1969 – 1978. It has been the home of Glastonbury Cricket Club since at least 1893, when the first recorded match was played on the ground. The highest individual first-class score made on the ground was 187* by Glamorgan's Alan Jones in a 1963 County Championship match.
The ground was formerly owned by the Morlands company, which was a major employer making sheepskin clothing in the town from 1870 to the mid-1980s.

Myrceugenia rufa is a species of shrub in the genus Myrceugenia of the family Myrtaceae. It is endemic to Chile, where it grows in forest remnants near the coast and is considered "endangered".
Description
Myrceugenia rufa is an evergreen shrub growing to a height of about . The young stems are densely pubescent. The small, opposite leaves have hairy petioles and are oval or oblong with entire margins. They have rounded apices and bases and are yellowish-green above and pale green below. The flowers are solitary or in groups of two or three in the axils of the leaves. The flower stems are densely pubescent, the petals are white and there is a boss of sixty to one hundred stamens and a single style. The flowers are followed by berries in diameter which are green at first but later turn yellow and then orange. The flowering period is from August to October and the fruits mature in February and March.
Distribution and habitat
Myrceugenia rufa is endemic to Chile where it is restricted to coastal areas from Coquimbo Region southwards to San Antonio Province. Its altitudinal range is , and it grows on coastal cliffs or within about of the coast, usually occurring in deep creaks and inaccessible places in remnants of forested areas. It is often found growing among other species of myrtle. The fruits are often attacked by insects which feed on the flesh and seeds. It is an uncommon species and its conservation status is considered to be "endangered".

The evasive manoeuvre test (; colloquial: moose test or elk test; Swedish: Älgtest, German: Elchtest) is performed to determine how well a certain vehicle evades a suddenly appearing obstacle. This test has been standardized in ISO 3888-2.
Forms of the test have been performed in Sweden since the 1970s. The colloquial and internationally better-known name for the test was coined in 1997 by the German newspaper Süddeutsche Zeitung after the Swedish motor magazine Teknikens Värld together with the TV-show Trafikmagasinet flipped a Mercedes-Benz A-Class in a test ostensibly made to measure the car's ability to avoid hitting a moose.
In reality, the test is constructed to simulate, for example, a reversing car or a child rushing out onto the road. This is because it is more likely that the moose will continue across the road than remain in place or turn back, making it more advisable to brake hard and try to slip behind the animal than to swerve in front of it.
Test specifications
The test is performed on a dry road surface. Traffic cones are set up in an S shape to simulate the obstacle, road, and road edges. The car to be tested has one belted person in each available seat and weights in the boot to achieve maximum load. In order to qualify as a "pass" the vehicle must successfully navigate the course at .
When the driver comes onto the track, they quickly swerve into the oncoming lane to avoid the object and then immediately swerves back to avoid oncoming traffic. The test is repeated at an increased speeds until the car skids, knocks down cones, or spins around.
1997 Mercedes A-Class test
On 21 October 1997 the journalist Robert Collin from the motor magazine Teknikens Värld overturned the new Mercedes-Benz A-Class in the moose test at , while a Trabant—a much older, and widely mocked car from the former East Germany—managed it perfectly.
During an interview in Süddeutsche Zeitung, Collin tried to explain this test by the example of an evasive manoeuvre for a moose on the road. It was soon called Elchtest (moose test).
Mercedes initially denied the problem, but then took the step of recalling all units sold to date (2,600), rebuilding 17,000 cars and suspending sales for three months until the problem was solved by adding electronic stability control and modifying the suspension. The company spent DM 2.5 billion in developing the car, with a further DM 300 million to fix it.
Ongoing testing
Swedish automotive magazine Teknikens Värld tests "hundreds of cars every year". with the moose test. It publishes test results since 1983 on their website. The car with the slowest speed to successfully complete the manoeuvre is the Reliant Rialto at .
In July 2005, the Dacia Logan appeared initially to fail the test, but a later investigation concluded that excessive testing had worn the car's tyres to failure.
Some current vehicles, such as the 2021-present Mitsubishi Outlander and Volvo XC40 Recharge T4, still fail this test, although after the latest software revision the RAV4 now passes the test.
Current champion
The Citroën Xantia Activa V6 has held the record since 1999, beating cars such as the track-orientated 2008 Porsche 911 GT3 RS and the 2017 McLaren 675LT. The Citroën performed the test at .
Actual moose collision testing
Although the moose test itself is based on the avoidance of hitting an obstruction in the road, testing is also carried out on actual collision with animals in the road. Both Volvo and Saab have a tradition of taking moose crashes into account when building cars.
The Swedish National Road and Transport Research Institute has developed a moose crash test dummy called "Mooses". The dummy (which is made with similar weight, centre of gravity and dimensions to a live moose) is used to simulate realistic moose collisions.
Australian car manufacturers use crash test kangaroo dummies for similar reasons.
In a 2008 episode of Mythbusters, the urban legend that accelerating to hit a moose would cause less damage than braking was investigated and busted. It was found that regardless of car type and speed, the damage to a vehicle was catastrophic in all cases.

The 'Dejudaization Institute' Memorial is a memorial installation erected in Eisenach at the behest of eight Protestant regional churches. The memorial remembers the Protestant regional churches' culpability for the antisemitic Institute for the Study and Eradication of Jewish Influence on German Church Life they founded, which was active between 1939 and 1945 in the Nazi era. The memorial installation is intended to be understood as the Protestant churches' confession of guilt and as a memorial to the victims of the church's anti-Judaism and antisemitism. It was unveiled on May 6, 2019, eighty years after the founding of the "Dejudaization Institute".
Background
On May 6, 1939, eleven Protestant regional churches founded the "Institute for the Study and Eradication of Jewish Influence on German Church Life", called the "Dejudaization Institute" for short, in Eisenach. The institute's stated mission was to obliterate the Jewish roots of Christianity, to delete every positive reference to the people of Israel and Judaism from Holy Scripture, and to bring the Protestant Church's teachings and liturgical practice into conformity with Nazi ideology. The institute was disbanded at the end of July 1945.
The Memorial's Origins
There had been efforts since the early 1990s to remember the "Dejudaization Institute" and its aftermath publicly with a memorial in Eisenach. Repeated attempts to put up a memorial plaque on the building of the institute's former offices at Bornstrasse 11, the Church of Thuringia's former seminary, never got beyond the planning stage, though.
In the run-up to the preparations for the special exhibition Study and Eradication: The Church's 'Dejudaization Institute', 1939–1945, Scholarly Director and Curator of the Stiftung Lutherhaus Eisenach Jochen Birkenmeier proposed undertaking a renewed attempt to put up a memorial plaque or stele in a letter of March 27, 2018, to Eisenach-Gerstungen Church District Superintendent Ralf-Peter Fuchs and Eisenach Mayor Katja Wolf. His proposal met with support from both addressees. Fuchs, however, recommended organizing the memorial on the regional church level. Birkenmeier therefore approached Bishop Ilse Junkermann of the Evangelical Church in Central Germany (EKM) on April 16, 2018, who supported the initiative immediately and asked the successors to the regional churches involved in founding the "Dejudaization Institute" for their collaboration.
Representatives of the Stiftung Lutherhaus Eisenach, the Eisenach municipal government and Eisenach-Gerstungen Church District inspected sites together on June 18, 2018. After consulting together, they declared the site at the beginning of Bornstrasse to be particularly suitable. The location at a fork in the road additionally made it possible to incorporate the words "We went astray" from the "Darmstadt Statement" in the memorial's design.
Following lengthy planning and finalization, the EKM and Stiftung Lutherhaus Eisenach were ultimately able to implement their collaborative project on schedule. Birkenmeier managed the memorial installation project. Funding and coordination with the regional churches were in the hands of Bishop Ilse Junkermann. Eisenach municipal government assisted the project with guidance during the building and permit process. Six representatives of regional Protestant churches solemnly unveiled the memorial on May 6, 2019.
The Institutions that Commissioned the Memorial
The memorial was commissioned by the legal successors to the regional churches involved in founding the "Dejudaization Institute" in 1939: the Evangelical Church in Central Germany, the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Northern Germany, the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Saxony, the Evangelical Church of Anhalt, the Evangelical Church in Hesse-Nassau, the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Oldenburg, the Evangelical Church of the Palatinate (Protestant Regional Church), and the Evangelical Church of the Augsburg and Helvetic Confessions in Austria. The Union of Evangelical Churches is represented by individual member churches.
Site
The memorial in Eisenach is located at the beginning of Bornstrasse (corner of Johann-Sebastian-Bach-Strasse and Am Ofenstein), approximately 240 meters away from the "Dejudaization Institute's" former first offices at Bornstrasse 11. The site was selected because it is more visible and more readily accessible from the downtown than the actual building located on a steep incline. The conditions at the selected site were significantly better for the erection of a memorial too.
Design
The memorial, measuring approximately 200 x 148 x 42 cm, was designed by Marc Pethran from KOCMOC.NET design agency in Leipzig following suggestions for its composition from the Stiftung Lutherhaus Eisenach in conjunction with the EKM and its Advisory Council for Christian-Jewish Dialogue and built by Obornik Werbetechnik KG in Hildesheim. The body of the memorial consists of Cor-Ten steel plates, individual segments of which have been cut out. Among other things, this is to be understood as a reference to the 'dejudaization' of the texts of the New Testament and the Protestant hymnal as well as the destruction of the common foundations of Judeo-Christian belief by the "Dejudaization Institute".
Inscriptions
The memorial bears the German inscription "Wir sind in die Irre gegangen…" (We went astray...) on the outer plate, a quotation from the "Darmstadt Statement", a Protestant confession of guilt from the year 1947. The inner plate displays an explanatory inscription in German and English. The text follows a draft by Jochen Birkenmeier with minor additions by Bishop Ilse Junkermann. The English text reads:
The "Dejudaization Institute" in Eisenach
On May 6, 1939, eleven regional Protestant churches established the "Institute for the Study and Eradication of Jewish Influence on German Church Life" in Eisenach. This institute's mission was to obliterate the Jewish roots of Christianity, to delete every positive reference to the people of Israel and Judaism from Holy Scripture, and to bring the Protestant Church's teachings and liturgical practice into conformity with Nazi ideology.
The institute's staff perverted the word and spirit of the Gospel in the name of völkisch theological scholarship, stirred up hatred against Judaism, and strove for the exclusion of Christians with Jewish ancestry from the Protestant Church. They helped justify the persecution and millions of murders of fellow Jewish citizens with their work.
The first offices of the "Dejudaization Institute" were located just a few meters from here at Bornstrasse 11. The successor churches to the complicit regional churches have therefore erected this memorial here in recognition of their guilt and in remembrance of the victims of anti-Judaism and anti-Semitism.

William Arthur (1680 - 1716) was a Scottish doctor who served as Regius Keeper of the Royal Botanic Garden and King's Botanist at Edinburgh. Shortly afterwards he was deeply implicated in the Jacobite rising of 1715. He fled to Italy, where he died the following year "from a surfeit of figs."
Early life
William was born in Elie, Fifeshire in 1680 to Patrick Arthur of Ballone, a surgeon and apothecary and Commissioner of Supply for Fifeshire. His mother was Margaret Sharp, a relative of Archbishop James Sharp of St. Andrews who had been assassinated in Fife in 1679. William travelled to Utrecht in the early 18th century to study medicine under Dutch physician and "father of physiology", Herman Boerhaave. He graduated as Doctor of Medicine in March 1707 and returned to his native Scotland, initially practising medicine in Elie. He relocated to Edinburgh in 1713 and was admitted to the Royal College of Physicians, being made a Fellow in 1714.
Marriage
He married Barbara Clerk in 1710, widow of John Lawson, Laird of Cairnmuir, daughter of Sir John Clerk of Penicuik, 1st Baronet and sister of Sir John Clerk of Penicuik, known as Baron Clerk. Both her father and brother were both prominent Whig politicians and pro-Hanoverian. To William the marriage gave political connections at the highest levels of the Scottish establishment and society that found him "associating with the most influential people, and beyond suspicion of any want of loyalty - against that his wife's relationships protected him".
Botanist to the King
On the accession of King George I, the long-standing Regius Keeper of the Royal Botanic Garden in Edinburgh was James Sutherland, King's Botanist and Professor of Botany. The Regius Keeper is a household appointment granted directly by Royal Warrant from the monarch and it was surprising that the experienced incumbent was replaced by William Arthur, who as doctor of medicine had no apparent qualification or skill for the role beyond a physician's knowledge of botanical herbs and plants. It is likely that the appointment was entirely on the merit of his political connections through Sir John Clerk. The biographer of the Regius Keepers of the Botanic Garden, Bayley Balfour, states that during his tenure, Arthur likely "performed few or none of [his] professional or other administrative duties" and left behind a "silence of botanical tradition".
Jacobite Plot
William Arthur was accused of being central to a Jacobite plot to capture Edinburgh Castle during the rising in September 1715. The tale is recounted by Sir Walter Scott in his Tales of a Grandfather. William's younger brother, Thomas Arthur, an Ensign in The Third Regiment of Foot Guards and their cousin James Arthur, a Lieutenant in Edinburgh Regiment of Foot were also implicated. William was alleged to have been one of the overall organisers of the plot on behalf of John Erskine, Earl of Mar, while Thomas bribed a sergeant and two privates of the Castle garrison to assist in pulling up rope ladders from below for a Jacobite storming party and James was to provide forty "loyal" soldiers from his regiment from within the Castle. The assault party itself was to consist of fifty Highlanders from the estate of the exiled James Drummond, 4th Earl of Perth, and fifty local Jacobites drawn from "officers, writers' (lawyers') clerks, apprentices and other youths of a class considerably above the mere vulgar". The leader of this force was Alexander MacGregor of Bahaldie, chieftain of Clan Gregor, a "gentleman of great courage". They were to be well armed, 30 muskets with bayonets and "a great many" small arms.
The plot however quickly descended into farce. The younger members of the raiding party got drunk in a public tavern and were overheard, allowing word to be sent to Sir Adam Cockburn of Ormiston, Lord Justice-Clerk who raised the alarm with the deputy governor of the Castle. The sentries on the wall were thus forewarned and the guarding watches changed, meaning that the soldiers bribed to assist the assault would have less time and discretion to fulfil their part of the bargain. The raiding party rendezvoused under the cover of darkness at the West Kirk at 11PM before climbing the Castle Rock and assembled at the agreed point below the castle walls where the ladders were to be pulled up by their accomplices on the Castle walls. The merchant and Jacobite agent, Charles Forbes, who had been paid to make the ladders was however notably absent and the party had only a single ladder and grapnel with them which proved to be too short. At half past eleven when the relief guards arrived early thanks to the forewarning the plot was exposed. The erstwhile raiders at the foot of the walls fled, but not before a party from the Edinburgh Town Guard intercepted and captured three youths of their number and one Captain Maclean, a former officer in the service of King James, who had fallen on the rocks. The remainder scattered to the north where they encountered the delayed Charles Forbes, coming the opposite way with the awaited but now redundant assault ladders.
The Highlanders of the party headed north for Kinross. The luckless sergeant on the walls was captured, court-martialled and hanged for his crime and the Deputy Governor. Lieutenant-Colonel Stewart, was relieved of his command and imprisoned. William Arthur recounted in a letter sent later to the Earl of Mar how he had then fled the city with a few other conspirators to the house of his niece in Polton, where they acquired horses and rode through the Pentland Hills to the house of another relative, a sister of his father-in-law Sir John Clerk. From here he corresponded with his wife in Edinburgh who informed him by return that his part in the plot was known and that she had been visited and questioned by her brother Baron Clerk and other senior figures with family connections. William gathered money and fresh horses from his wife's estates of Cairnmuir in the Scottish Borders and was helped across the border into England by Jacobite sympathisers in Teviotdale. After this, the authorities in Edinburgh claimed that Arthur and his cousin, William Cunningham of Barnes, thereafter met with the Earl of Mar "with intelligence" and were later present at the Battle of Preston where the rising finally failed.
Later life and death
William Arthur was next heard of in Rome, where he died in 1716 from dysentery after consuming a "surfeit of figs". He is alleged to have written his account of the plot on his death bed, to clear himself of allegations that he had lost his nerve and that he had betrayed the plot by informing his wife. This was conveyed to the Earl of Mar in Paris, along with the news of Arthur's death by Dr Roger Kenyon, a Jacobite agent. William was buried in Rome by his sympathisers and was the first to be interred in the Protestant Cemetery in that city, a privilege which had been conferred directly from Filippo Gualterio, Cardinal Protector of Scotland. Mar wrote posthumously on Arthur in a letter to a Jacobite agent:

USS LST-996 was an LST-542-class tank landing ship in the United States Navy. Like many of her class, she was not named and is properly referred to by her hull designation.
LST-996 was laid down on 27 March 1944 at the Boston Navy Yard; launched on 2 May 1944; sponsored by Mrs. Ursula A. Hall; and commissioned on 23 May 1944.
During World War II, LST-996 was assigned to the European theater and participated in the Operation Dragoon, the invasion of southern France, in August and September 1944. Transferred to the Asiatic-Pacific theater, she engaged in the assault and occupation of Okinawa Gunto in April through June 1945. She returned to the United States and was decommissioned on 22 April 1946 and struck from the Navy list on 8 May that same year. On 12 October 1947, the ship was sold to the Hugo Neu Steel Products Corp., New York City, N.Y., for scrapping.
LST-996 earned two battle stars for World War II service.

Sir William Pitt (1559 – 29 May 1636) of Old Palace Yard, Westminster and of Hartley Wespall and Stratfield Saye, both in Hampshire, and of Iwerne Stepleton in Dorset, was an English courtier and politician who sat in the House of Commons between 1614 and 1625.
Origins
Pitt was the eldest son of John Pitt (died 1602), Clerk of the Exchequer to Queen Elizabeth I and a mercer from Blandford Forum in Dorset, by his wife Joan Swayne, a daughter of John Swayne. John Pitt (died 1602) received a grant of arms and according to the heraldic commentator Mark Antony Lower (1845): "The family of Pitt, Earl of Chatham, bore 'Sable, a fesse chequy argent and azure between three bezants (or pieces of money)', in allusion to the office the original grantee held in the Exchequer. The Fanshawes also bore chequy, &c., for the same reason." In mediaeval times the business of the Exchequer was performed on a table covered by a large chequered cloth on which sums of money received were placed and moved around in a primitive form of financial accounting. William Pitt's younger brother was Thomas Pitt of Blandford, from whom the Pitts of Boconnoc were descended, namely his grandson Thomas Pitt (1653–1726), President of Madras, a wealthy merchant who purchased Boconnoc, and his grandson William Pitt, 1st Earl of Chatham (1708–1778) ("Pitt the Elder"), twice Prime Minister of Great Britain, the father of William Pitt the Younger (1759–1806), also Prime Minister.
Career
He became comptroller of the household and a principal officer of the exchequer in the reign of James I. He acquired the manor of Stratfield Turgis from the Marquis of Winchester in the reign of James I and also acquired property at Stratfield Saye in Hampshire.
In 1614, Pitt was elected a member of parliament for Wareham. He was knighted at Theobalds on 2 February 1619. In 1621, he was re-elected MP for Wareham. In 1624 he intended that his son Edward Pitt should be his fellow member at Wareham but the mayor opposed this and Edward was returned for Poole instead. Pitt was re-elected MP for Wareham in 1625. In about 1630 he enlarged his property at Stratfield Saye House.
Marriage and children
Pitt married Edith Cadbury, a daughter and co-heiress of Nicholas Cadbury, Yeoman, of Arne, near Wareham in Dorset. The surviving silver plate of St Mary's Church, Iwerne Stepleton, includes a cover-paten with hall-mark of 1638, engraved with arms of Pitt impaling Cadbury. By his wife he had children including:
Edward Pitt (d.1643), MP, eldest son and heir, who inherited Stratfield Saye House.
William Pitt of Hartley Wespall, younger son.
Death and burial
Pitt died at the age of about 76 at Stratfield Saye and had an imposing monument erected in the parish church by his son Edward.

During the original 1975-1977 run of Space: 1999, the science-fiction series generated a number of media tie-ins, including novelisations, original novels, comic books and audio dramas. Due to the series' ongoing cult following, new tie-ins continue to be released to this day.
Some critics credit Space: 1999 with bridging the gap between Star Trek and Star Wars.
Books
1970s novels and novelisations
In the mid-1970s, a number of books were published by both American (Pocket Books) and British (Futura) publishers, consisting primarily of novelisations of Space: 1999 episodes. These releases, mainly paperback, were supplemented by 16-page photo sections (Year One and Two in the United States, Year Two only in the United Kingdom), which comprised black-and-white stills from the episodes. Original novels, without photo section, also formed a part of the series. Many of the books were also translated for release in overseas markets, such as Germany, Turkey and Japan.
English-language releases
Year One
Breakaway by E.C. Tubb. Novelisation of "Breakaway", "Matter of Life and Death", "Ring Around The Moon" and "Black Sun". Using the scripted stories and plot points as a springboard, Tubb weaves the four installments into one continuous (and still-recognisable) narrative. (Fans expecting a word-by-word adaptation will be disappointed.) Characterisation is strong, especially among the three leads: Tubb identifies their personal loneliness and reasons for wanting to retreat from Earth to the "safety" of the Moon. Tubb also injects a great deal of science into the narrative, attempting to explain many of the inexplicable events in the language of 1970s scientific knowledge. He depicts the mental adjustment of the Alphans to a hazardous existence in deep space, with several personnel reportedly going mad or committing suicide, and their preparations to survive the voyage by adapting Moonbase Alpha's physical facilities. Significant changes include: (1) Commissioner Simmonds is a casualty of the "breakaway" – a bad fall and the subsequent crushing G-forces leave him dead from a severe skull fracture. (2) Meta and Terra Nova are made the same planet, lending credence to Commander John Koenig's optimism at the end of "Breakaway" that Meta holds hope for the future. (3) Helena Russell's experience of the destruction of Terra Nova and the reconnaissance party and its subsequent magical reversal is given the possible explanation of being a bad "trip" induced by hallucinogenic compounds in the native fruit that she samples. (4) Triton is not another planet light years from Earth, but the moon of Neptune gone missing in this story. (5) Professor Victor Bergman creates the anti-gravity force field in "Ring Around The Moon" to outwit the Tritonians, based on information obtained from the explosions at Disposal Areas One and Two, then adapts it to shield Alpha for the "Black Sun" segment. (6) The surviving Eagle Transporter cannot escape the gravitational pull of the black sun, so Carter opts to follow the Moon. (7) David Kano is present in the "Breakaway" portion of the novel, while no mention is made of Benjamin Ouma.
Moon Odyssey by John Rankine. Novelisation of "Alpha Child", "The Last Sunset", "Voyager's Return" and "Another Time, Another Place". Rankine employs a much more conservative approach to the novel, with a faithful script-to-prose adaption of the four episode. Any linking of the four segments is minimal and does not alter events. Thankfully, no explanations are offered for the mysterious and mind-blowing events that the Alphans experience. Rankine's style is clean and fast-paced and, while maintaining character integrity, portrays the regulars as more down-to-earth, regular people in contrast to Tubb's über-intelligent, more tension-ridden interpretation. Changes from established episodes are few and usually because they were present in the final shooting scripts and reflective of last-minute alterations: (1) Sue Crawford was originally named Cynthia Crawford. (2) Jarak and Rena's pursuers from home appeared in a fleet of six ships identical to theirs rather than one large warship. (3) The conclusion of the "biological clock" dialogue between Sandra Benes and Paul Morrow in "The Last Sunset" excised from the final print is restored (Sandra: "Do you know what sound I miss most in the silence of space?" Paul: "Birdsong?" And now, before the kiss, Sandra: "The sound of children".)
The Space Guardians by Brian Ball. Novelisation of "Missing Link", "Force of Life" and "Guardian of Piri". This novel's style is a hybrid of the first two; a continuous interlinking novel that can veer from the on-screen narrative, but with large portions adapted verbatim. Ball is much more liberal with the Alphans and their portrayals, while consistent within the novel, do not match up with the characterisations created on-screen. The protagonist is Commander Koenig, who is put through a tortured learning curve in these three segments. Alpha is depicted as a very realistic and interactive community. Changes are made both for creative and practical reasons: (1) The reconnaissance mission in "Missing Link" was not to explore the Cryton solar system, but searching for a detected mineral deposit on the Moon's surface. (This was also depicted in the final shooting script.) (2) Raan's faux-Bergman deceives Koenig for an extended time, revealing the sensor reading of the mineral deposit was actually that of a buried alien spacecraft boasting an interstellar propulsion system. During a visit to the excavated craft, he tries to tempt Koenig into abandoning the Alphans and using the ship to get the two of them home. (3) Koenig's love for Vana borders on epic and persists throughout the novel. In the "Force of Life" chapters, memories of Vana produce a fugue-like grief, causing him to withdraw from the normal routine and giving him crippling migraines. In "Guardian of Piri", he has come to terms with this, but its persisting memory gives Koenig the strength of will to resist the influence of the Guardian. (4) After Zenno, the Moon drifts out of the galaxy, encountering the heat-absorbing life force and the isolated Pirian solar system in the intergalactic void. (5) Piri alternates in appearance between the reality of a desert wasteland and the Guardian's vision of a lush paradise garden.
Collision Course by E.C. Tubb. Novelisation of "Collision Course", "The Full Circle", "End of Eternity" and "Death's Other Dominion". Tubb's second effort is much the same as his Breakaway. All four tales are blended into a single narrative, with the scientific explanations added for Operation Shockwave, the sudden appearance and ultimate fate of Atheria, the Rethan personal time warp and the means of Balor's immortality. He also debunks the normal complaint of critics of Space: 1999 by having Atheria, Retha, the Progron asteroid and Ultima Thule present in the same solar system. The stories bear a closer resemblance to their respective episodes with more on-screen action and dialogue represented. An interesting passage giving insight into the daily life on Alpha is added: Koenig converses with the head of nutrition in a mess hall, mentioning the poor flavour of the morning meal. The subordinate explains that an algae strain was contaminated, but used regardless to create the simulated butter, eggs and coffee. The alternative was to scrap the lot and provide survival rations. Changes made include: (1) Retha being revealed from behind Atheria after its disappearance and proposed as a possible "parting gift" from Arra. (2) The Alphans not attempting to destroy Balor's asteroid at the close of the story. Its power of indestructibility had been demonstrated at the top of this segment by an almost organic re-growth potential, rather than a magical post-destructive reappearance. (3) Captain Alan Carter being attacked by the hostile wildlife of Ultima Thule just as he locates the Eagle during the white-out.
Lunar Attack by John Rankine. Novelisation of "War Games", "The Troubled Spirit", "The Last Enemy" and "Space Brain". Rankine's second outing is a solid novelisation in the same spirit as his first, and the four stories remain faithful to their script origins. His prose style remains brisk, but includes more descriptive passages (as if he had viewed these stories before getting down to writing). The attack theme is carried through all four stories, with three depicting assaults on Alpha from external forces and a fourth from within the mind of one of their own. Teleplay purists will note more than a few discrepancies as "The Last Enemy" and "Space Brain" were extensively re-worked after completion of the principal photography. Changes include: (1) The music programme in "The Troubled Spirit" is a string quartet led by Bergman. (2) In "The Last Enemy", Dione receives reports from a male Bethan regarding the status of the wandering Moon. (3) None of the action onboard Dione's battleship Satazius appears, as this was scripted and filmed after the fact as filler for this severely under-running episode. The whole "men v. women" idea is mostly lost without Dione's glamour-girl crew. (4) The ending of "The Last Enemy" is that of the unrevised shooting script. The sequence with the two planets both threatening Alpha with destruction over Koenig's provision of co-ordinates for Satazius does not occur, nor does his desperate gambit to dispose of Dione and company. Koenig simply transmits the co-ordinates of the Bethan gunship to Talos on Delta, who immediately sends a missile strike to destroy it. (5) In "Space Brain", the lost fight between Carter and Kelly excised from the final cut is restored where a Brain-controlled Kelly attempts to send the Eagle into the centre of the Brain. (6) The ending of "Space Brain" is that of the unrevised shooting script. Koenig has a last-minute epiphany: if the antibodies are intentionally allowed into the Alpha complex, they cannot crush it, and orders all airlocks opened. The Brain survives intact, gently deflecting the Moon from its collision course.
Astral Quest by John Rankine. Novelisation of "The Infernal Machine", "Mission of the Darians", "Dragon's Domain" and "The Testament of Arkadia". Rankine maintains his high-quality interpretation of the series with the last four stories of Year One, displaying a prose-style that is a bit more sophisticated than his previous outings. (However, he loses a bit of credibility when he has the elegant and refined Benes utter the expletive "Holy cow!" at the sight of Gwent.) He weaves the four segments together with a continuing story of Koenig and Bergman discussing the first steps of establishing a viable civilisation when they eventually settle on a planet. The quest theme is explored through Gwent's search for identity, the Darians' ambitions for a future, Jim Calder's quest for redemption and the culmination of the destiny that the unknown forces holds in store for the Alphans. Changes this time are few: (1) Morrow is present in "The Infernal Machine". (2) The mutants are referred to by the Darian survivor tribe as "Mutes". (3) The Tony Cellini and Monique Bouchere characters are known as "Jim Calder" and "Olga Vishenskya" as they were in the final shooting script.

Phoenix of Megaron by John Rankine (original novel - US only)
Earthfall by E.C. Tubb (original novel - UK only) – notable in that it concludes the Space: 1999 odyssey, and features the descendants of the Alphans returning to Earth.
"Earthbound" is the only Year One episode not included in this series of novelisations.
Year Two
Planets of Peril by Michael Butterworth. Novelisation of "The Metamorph", "The AB Chrysalis", "The Rules of Luton" and "New Adam, New Eve". The new series receives a new style of writing. Butterworth has a complicated prose style, heavy with descriptive passages and character insights. The characters sometimes speak and behave melodramatically. Great licence is taken with the scripts and major changes are made in these stories to suit their assembly into one consistent plotline. Only some of this can be attributed to his being supplied with draft scripts. Butterworth acknowledges the never-mentioned backstory that the Alphans have relocated underground. Major changes include: (1) The use of the character names Simon Hays, Mark Macinlock and Jameson (later revised to Tony Verdeschi, Alan Carter and Petrov) as they appeared in the final draft of "The Metamorph". In a schizophrenic attempt to accommodate different drafts of the script, Butterworth has Hays accompany Koenig to Psychon (and sometimes forgetting that he is there) while Verdeschi is left in command of Moonbase Alpha. After the events of "The Metamorph", Macinlock would take a "well-deserved rest" and Alan Carter becomes the main pilot. (2) The mineral that would send the Alphans to Psychon is named (as it was also called in the final shooting script). is described as a radioactive metal that had replaced plutonium as fuel for the nuclear reactors due to its significantly higher potency and harmless by-products. (3) In "The AB Chrysalis", the shockwaves threaten the Moon directly after the destruction of Psychon. Maya accompanies the reconnaissance party to their planet of origin, not as an official crew member, but at Helena's request to give the girl refugee "something to do" to keep her from grieving over her losses. (With Maya unfamiliar to the Alphans, Butterworth actually makes sense of the filler where Koenig and Carter marvel over her extraordinary ability of mental arithmetic.) (4) Verdeschi replaces Koenig on the Luton survey mission with Maya, in an attempt to force these characters together and accelerate their romance. (5) Maya becomes the newly appointed scientific officer with a desk in Command Centre in "New Adam, New Eve". (6) Benes and Yasko appear in Command Centre together on several occasions.
Mind-Breaks of Space by J. Jeff Jones and Michael Butterworth. Novelisation of "Brian the Brain", "The Mark of Archanon", "Catacombs of the Moon" and "One Moment of Humanity". Sources indicate Jones wrote the majority of the book. The four stories are again combined into a single narrative and a search for is introduced (this would become a constant presence in the Butterworth novels, making the reader wonder why the Alphans designed their power source to be dependent on such a universally rare substance). Brian the Brain's interference with Alpha's Main Computer would cause the reactors to use too much too quickly. would be the cause of the mining operations seen in "The Mark of Archanon" and "Catacombs of the Moon". The surface explosions caused by the hydrogen heat-storm would split open a rill on the lunar surface and expose a large vein of the valuable mineral. Butterworth also has Maya's transformations feature more distinctively alien creatures rather than terrestrial animals, addressing the complaints of both Catherine Schell and the fans. Changes include: (1) Koenig's plan to break Brian's mind involves he, Helena and Maya confusing the Brain by each clamoring to provide it with maintenance, then Maya transforms into Captain Michael to send it over the edge. (This was from an earlier draft script). (2) Maya transforms into a bipedal headless bat creature to search for the fugitive Osgoods in the pitch-black catacombs. (3) The hydrogen heat-storm is a force of nature only and there is no speculation as to its possible sentience. (4) The first appearance of "Sahn" as a male Indian operative rather than Sandra Benes going by a new nickname.
The Space-Jackers by Michael Butterworth. Novelisation of "Seed of Destruction", "A Matter of Balance", "The Exiles" and "The Beta Cloud". Butterworth returns as solo author of this novel. The stories are more delineated and match their on-screen counterparts (except for "The Beta Cloud"). The hunt for continues as Cantar and Zova exhaust Moonbase's supply using their matter transmitter jury-rigged from the life-support system and, by the end of the novel, it is stated that Alpha has only enough power for one more day. His use of imaginative alien forms for the Maya transformations continues with her selection to fight the Cloud robot: a two-headed, fire-breathing dragon beast with razor-like forearms. Changes include: (1) Botanist Shermeen's last name is "Goodwood" and he is only eighteen at the time, having been trapped on the runaway Moon as a teenager during an ill-timed holiday. (2) Hays makes another appearance the first half of "The Exiles" (the shooting script used his name till this point). He remains in Command Centre with Koenig when Verdeschi and Maya are dispatched to Life Support to check on Cantar and Zova's progress. He is not mentioned again. (3) The male Indian "Sahn" makes another appearance, substituting at the station normally occupied by Benes. (4) In "The Beta Cloud", major changes are made to the narrative (not the least of which is the disappearance of all the filler scenes added to this severely under-running episode). Maya is severely injured during her initial battle with the Cloud's robot and remains in Medical Centre for much of the story, and a recovering Carter joins Verseschi and Fraser in their attempts to repel the invader. Maya's epiphany about the robot's true nature is given to her by Ben Vincent with an off-hand remark: "If Tony and Alan can't stop that runaway robot, no one can." Maya then inexplicably escapes from the locked Medical Centre to join the three men for the final showdown at Life Support, sustained by stimulants and pain-killing drugs. There is no happy ending as they realise that the aforementioned power dilemma will mean the end of Alpha. As an aside, Macinlock is mentioned as the ill-fated pilot of Eagle Six, effectively writing the character out of the series.
The Psychomorph by Michael Butterworth. Novelisation of "The Lambda Factor" and "The Bringers of Wonder, Part One" and "The Bringers of Wonder, Part Two". Butterworth's fourth outing presents a behind-the-scenes manipulator: a million-mile wide sentient space amoeba. The amoeba has existed for billions of years and sustains itself on the radiation of the stars it absorbs. Now senile and powerless, its once massive body shrunken and dying, it must receive a massive influx of radiation to survive. The arrival of the travelling Moon gives it its last chance and it attempts by any means to deceive the Alphans into causing a thermonuclear explosion to regenerate itself. The crisis narrative from the end of The Space-Jackers is picked up with Alpha poised on the brink of oblivion. With only hours to go, mild-mannered mining engineer Carl Renton, under the influence of the amoeba's lambda waves, has his inner desire for success realised as he is given the courage to enter an unsafe tunnel and discovers a major deposit. Only minor changes are made to the teleplays: (1) Sally Martin is another unfortunate teen trapped on the runaway Moon when visiting her favourite uncle at the age of fifteen. (2) Carl Renton and his bully (named Harry Garth) shoot craps rather than play their complicated electronic gambling device. (3) Carolyn Powell is influenced by the amoeba to order the meltdown of the Alpha nuclear reactors when she takes over Command Centre. (4) "Sahn" switches sex and is now portrayed as female due to appearance of fiancé, Peter Rockwell. (5) The jellyfish aliens are no longer the primary antagonists, but psychically synthesised pawns of the non-corporeal space amoeba. (6) Carter actually succeeds in inserting the nuclear fuel canister into the waste-dome core, but it becomes conveniently jammed part-way down the chute and will have to be removed at a later date.
The Time Fighters by Michael Butterworth. Novelisation of "Space Warp", "Dorzak", "Devil's Planet" and "The Seance Spectre". Major plot adjustments abound in this novel. The most noticeable alteration is the blending of Devil's Planet with "The Seance Spectre", with both stories occurring simultaneously and replacing Koenig with Verdeschi in the latter story. Butterworth continues his use of very alien creatures in "Space Warp" with the first rampaging Maya monster described as a ten-foot-high, iridescent-scaled centaur-like being. Changes made include: (1) Maya's illness is a normal Psychon condition caused by a periodic imbalance of their super-intelligent minds. (2) The Croton spaceship is damaged after it, too, traverses the space warp, causing Sahala to seek help on Alpha. (3) Koenig's absence from "Dorzak" on is explained as a long-range reconnaissance mission to the solar system the Moon is approaching. Among its numerous members are the planet Ellna and its habitable moon Entra and the proto-planet Tora, with which the Moon will collide on its present trajectory. It is suggested that the local fabric of the universe was disturbed by the Moon's passage through the space warp and the collision with Tora is the ultimate result of this bad karma. (4) Koenig's crash on Entra goes unnoticed by the senior staff as this is the moment that Sandor (as Greg Sanderson was originally known in the script) and his many mutineers (more than three) choose to storm Command Centre and brutalise the staff into submission. No rescue Eagle is dispatched and Koenig is presumed missing during the collision crisis. (5) Sandor and his cronies are depicted as a bunch of malcontents rather than suffering from a psychological condition. They are no longer exterior workers, but ordinary Alphans. (6) Verdeschi is in command of Alpha during the Tora incident. He orders the detonation of the nuclear waste site and the evacuation of Alpha, personally performs the procedure to blow up the atomic waste and dispatches the maniacal Sandor before Koenig is rescued from Ellna.
The Edge of the Infinite by Michael Butterworth. Novelisation of "All That Glisters", "Journey to Where", "The Dorcons" and "The Immunity Syndrome". The final novel in the series. Butterworth adds an ominous interlinking plotline: the Moon is approaching the edge of the galaxy it is presently travelling across and the Alphans are desperately gathering and hoarding supplies to survive the journey through the intergalactic void for as long as possible. Helena's opening status report gives the date as 25 December 2005. Changes to established plotlines include: (1) The initial "neutrone" transmission from Texas City is received on Alpha while Koenig and company are away battling the sentient rocks in the All That Glisters segment ("neutrone" is the term used in an earlier draft of the "Journey to Where" script). (2) The rock's death colour ("Red is death!") is black and it sends off opaque beams of blackness, which instantly dehydrate any living matter they touch. (3) The Alphans are initially horrified at the prospect of living on the sterile and polluted Earth as revealed by Doctor Logan and Carla. (4) For "The Dorcons", Butterworth adapted an earlier draft script ("Return of the Dorcons") with many minor differences in plot and dialogue. (5) The leader of the Alphan planetary survey team is a Pioneer Officer named Yuri Salkov (not Jerry Travis). (6) "The Immunity Syndrome" ends with the "I-That-Am-I" entity taking its own life. It could not stand the guilt of its murdering the beings it had encountered regardless of intention. The Alphans then seriously entertain the notion of relocating to the planet and the series ends with on optimistic note. This final installment was never released in the UK and only in a limited distribution in the US.
"The Taybor" is the only Year Two episode not included in this series of novelisations.
Since Michael Butterworth adapted his novelisations primarily from early drafts of Year Two scripts, many of the character names and personalities are considerably different from the later aired versions.
Foreign-language releases
Space: 1999 novels and novelisations were also written in other languages for specific markets, mainly Germany and Italy, where the series was highly popular.
In Italy, adaptations of all 24 Year One episodes and eight of the Year Two episodes were published in oversized hardback volumes. These books typically contained two episodes and nearly 100 colour photos each. Like the Michael Butterworth English-language editions, many of these books were adapted from early drafts of scripts, and events and details sometimes differ significantly from the episodes later aired.
In Germany, the Butterworth Year Two novels were translated into German, with one significant difference. The ending of "The Edge of the Infinite" was altered in order to set up events that would be continued in six original follow-on novels. The first two novels in the series were translated and published in Japan by Mikasa Shobo.
Das Andromeda-Rätsel (literally The Andromeda Riddle) by H.W. Springer (Pseudonym of Hans Wolf Sommer)
Das Erbe der Roboter (literally The Robots' Heritage) by H.W. Springer
Die Ewigen von Luna (literally The Eternals of Luna) by H.W. Springer
Invasion der Esper (literally Invasion of the Espers) by H.W. Springer
Aktion Exodus (analogously Operation Exodus) by Kurt Brand
Der Stahlplanet (literally The Steel Planet) by M.F. Thomas
The final novel, Der Stahlplanet is notable in that it concludes the Space: 1999 odyssey by having the Alphans teleport to Texas City, Earth via the neutrino transmission process introduced in "Journey to Where".
2000s novels and novelisations
In 2002, Fanderson published a new edition of the novel Earthfall which corrected the typographic errors of the original publication and, with the permission of the author, separated the novel into its three component sections: Part One, "Breakaway" (set in September 1999); Part Two, "Colony Alpha" (January 2000); and Part Three, "Earthfall" (October 2018). Fanderson went on to publish a new original novel, Earthbound, written by E. C. Tubb, in 2003. This book contained an adaptation of "Earthbound", the one episode which was not included in the original novelisation run, as well as adaptations of two scripts of Year Two stories which retained the Year One format in which the scripts had originally been written: "The Exiles" and "The Face of Eden" (or "The Immunity Syndrome"). Also in 2002, Eagle One Media published a new edition of the novel Alien Seed with a new preface by Tubb. The same year, Powys Media launched a new series of officially licensed original novels and related works of non-fiction, and revised and expanded omnibus editions of previously issued novelisations for Year Two. All books are English-language releases, available directly from the companies' websites.

Non-fiction releases
The Making of Space: 1999
In 1976, Ballantine Books published a paperback behind-the-scenes guide, The Making of Space: 1999, by Tim Heald. It focuses mainly on the early months of production of Year Two. The episode guide for that season is incomplete, since the book was published while Year Two was still airing. It features an extensive photo section with more than 50 black-and-white photos.
The Moonbase Alpha Technical Notebook
In 1977, Starlog magazine published The Moonbase Alpha Technical Notebook. It provides detailed blueprints of Moonbase Alpha, along with illustrations and information on various incarnations of props and costumes. It was intended to be updated on a regular basis, but this idea was abandoned due to low sales. Starlog had released the blueprints of the Eagle Transporter in its seventh issue (dated August 1977) as a possible preview of The Moonbase Alpha Technical Notebook, which was first advertised in the ninth issue. Starlog also released blueprints of the Mark IX Hawk in issue 32 (March 1980), but these were not intended as an update to The Moonbase Alpha Technical Notebook.

Comic books
In the 1970s, U.S. publisher Charlton Comics released seven issues of a comic based on Space: 1999, as well as eight issues of a black-and-white illustrated magazine featuring more adult-oriented stories. Well-known illustrators on the comics included John Byrne, Joe Staton and Pat Boyette.
In Germany, publisher Koralle Verlag produced 18 adaptations of Year One episodes as part of their Zack colour comic anthologies, one adaptation and four original stories in their Zack Parade line, as well as two full-length graphic novel original adventures in their Zack Box imprint. Many of the episodic adaptations were later translated and reprinted in Italy.
In the UK, a two-page comic strip appeared in Look-In children's magazine from autumn 1975 to spring 1977. Writer Angus Allan had previously contributed to a number of other Gerry Anderson-based strips in the 1960s for TV Century 21 comic. John M. Burns illustrated the first three stories, to be succeeded by Mike Noble when the strip would convert to black-and-white in early 1976. In the autumn of 1976, the strip adopted the Year Two format, with Burns returning for a brief coda story that November. Some of these strips were reprinted in black-and-white as complete compilations in the Portuguese TV Junior comic.
In 2013, a 'rebooted' and elaborated new graphic novel appeared, entitled Aftershock and Awe. In this context, the events of Space 1999 occur in an alternate history. In this timeline, John Fitzgerald Kennedy was never assassinated, and the space race continued apace. In 1987, a Third World War broke out, between the United States and North Korea, causing widespread devastation, but limited harm, given that international expenditure on the space race diminished the intensity of the escalated nuclear arms race in our world's Cold War during the eighties. Ronald Reagan and Kim Jong-Il are forced to resign their presidential offices after the catastrophe. On September 13, 1999, the Moon is blown out of Earth orbit by an intense nuclear accident and into a space warp. The series was expected carry on the narrative into a 'third season,' but as of 2019 the only other publication in this line has been To Everything That Was, an omnibus featuring remastered comic strips from the Charlton and Look-In series.
Audio dramas
In the 1970s, Power Records produced seven child-oriented audio dramas based on Space: 1999, most adapting Year One episodes; this differed from most other Power Records properties licensed from TV series that relied on original stories. "Breakaway", "Death's Other Dominion" and "Mission of the Darians" were released on a single 33 rpm LP, while a second album contains "End of Eternity" and "Dragon's Domain" accompanied by the two original adventures "Return to the Beginning" (in which, after the Moon passes through a violent space storm, the Alphans discover that they have returned to Earth; arriving on the surface, however, Koenig and Company find themselves in Biblical times; they encounter Noah and witness the Flood) and "It Played So Softly on the Ear" (in which a strange tune leads the Alphans to a habitable planet, where solar flares have placed the population in suspended animation; two remaining conscious scientists, who can reverse the process with blood transfusions, abduct the Alphans to serve as donors). In addition, Power Records published individual comic "book-and-record" editions of "Breakaway" and "Return to the Beginning" with 45 rpm vinyl records enclosed.

Michael Lloyd Hough (born February 6, 1963) is a Canadian former professional ice hockey player who played thirteen seasons in the National Hockey League from 1986 until 1999.
Biography
Hough was born in Montreal, Quebec. As a youth, he played in the 1976 Quebec International Pee-Wee Hockey Tournament with a minor ice hockey team from Toronto.
Hough was drafted 181st overall by the Quebec Nordiques in the 1982 NHL Entry Draft. He played 707 career NHL games, scoring 100 goals and 156 assists for 256 points. He had his best season in 1991–92 with 16 goals and 22 assists for 38 points, despite being sidelined for a month with a broken thumb. He was also the Nordiques' captain during that season.
Quebec traded Hough to the Washington Capitals in exchange for Reggie Savage and Paul MacDermid on June 20, 1993. Four days later, Washington left Hough unprotected for the 1993 NHL Expansion Draft, and he was claimed by the Florida Panthers, with whom he played four seasons. He scored the last goal in the Spectrum, in double overtime of the fifth game of the Panthers' semifinals series against the Philadelphia Flyers in 1996. He ended his NHL career with the New York Islanders in 1999 after signing with them as a free agent on July 2, 1997.

Naldham House is a heritage-listed office building located at 193 Mary Street, Brisbane CBD, City of Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. It was built from 1864 to 1889. It is also known as AUSN House. It was added to the Queensland Heritage Register on 21 October 1992.
History
The building was built initially in 1864, extended in the late 1870s, but substantially rebuilt in 1889 for the Australian United Steam Navigation Company. It served for almost a century as a shipping office. In 1988 major external and internal alternations were carried out in converting the building into premises for a club.
The site, adjacent to the Brisbane River, was acquired by the Australasian Steam Navigation Company (ASN) in March 1852 although the company did not construct wharves until 1859 the company's first wharf had been erected on the new site followed by a second wharf near Eagle Street in 1861.
In 1864 a two-storeyed office was erected and occupied by Henry O'Reilly, the ASN's Brisbane agent. This building was situated on the northern (tower) end of the present Naldham House. In 1877 the ASN's Brisbane office was elevated from agency to branch status, and at some time between 1875 and 1878 the office building was extended to the Felix Street corner.
In the mid 1880s the ASN was taken over and amalgamated with several other shipping companies to form the Australasian United Steam Navigation Company (AUSN) which became a dominant force in Queensland and Australian shipping.
In August 1888 architects McCredie Bros & Chambers called tenders for the extension of the Felix Street offices of the AUSN. The successful tenderer was J R Locke of Redfern, Sydney. At a cost of the upper storey was demolished and two new floors were added, a tower and cupola built into the northern end, a balcony included in the Mary Street side and new entrances formed.
In 1914, MacDonald Hamilton & Co became agents for AUSN and instigated internal renovations (c. 1915-20), including silky oak panelling on the first floor. They were also responsible for the change of the name to Naldham House which was the firm's telex address, derived from the middle letters of their name (MacDoNALD+HAMilton). This firm was an agent for a number of shipping, insurance and trading companies, including the Australasian United Steam Navigation Company.
MacDonald Hamilton & Co managed AUSN activities until the winding up of the AUSN in 1960. They carried out further internal renovations and a new entrance to Mary Street was constructed. The firm remained in the building until 1986.
In 1988-1889 major alterations and additions were undertaken as part of the incorporation of the building in the new riverside development, Waterfront Place. This work included the demolition of the adjacent bond store and the replicates details of the Mary Street facade on the previously blank eastern wall, which has now become the main entrance facade.
In 1994, Naldham House was purchased for $3.2 million by the Brisbane Polo Club, who operated the building as a private club and conference centre. In May 2015, the club was facing debts and decided to wind up, after accepting an unsolicited offer of $10 million from Singapore developer and hotelier Koh Wee Meng.
In January 2016, Dexus Property Group (owners of Waterfront Place) purchased Naldham House for $14 million as a strategic acquisition, describing it as "the front door of the Waterfront Place precinct".
Description
Naldham House, located on the corner of Mary and Felix Street, is a three storeyed rendered brick building with basement. The building forms a thin rectangle in plan form with the tower being located at the river end. Redevelopment of the adjacent site has now removed the visual link with the river.
The principal facade is to Mary Street and contains a colonnade on the ground and first floors. The detailing on the facade is a free adaptation of classical detailing, with ascending orders on succeeding levels.
On the first floor there are paired fluted pilasters without capitals. The colonnade at this level has paired columns with stylised Ionic capitals. The window openings on the second floor are large and have semi-circular arched heads. Between these openings are paired pilasters with one large Corinthian capital that extends across the top of both. Above the capitals is a plain frieze, a cornice and a parapet composed of Italianate balusters. The narrow northern facade has the date "1888" on the upper frieze.
The most distinctive feature of the building is the octagonal tower with cupola at the river end. The cupola, tower end and street facades of the building are intact.
The eastern facade, which now contains the main entrance, incorporates classical detail. The date "1988" appears below the cornice. The building has been refurbished internally. The interior including a new staircase was constructed in the manner of a late nineteenth century colonial club.

Naldham House was listed on the Queensland Heritage Register on 21 October 1992 having satisfied the following criteria.

Buang FC, previously known for sponsorship reasons as Prima Buang FC, is a semi-professional association football club founded sometime before 2013, and based in the Mount Hagen district of Papua New Guinea.
The club took part in two editions of the Papua New Guinea National Soccer League, with their best result coming in the 2017 season when they finished 5th. In their most recent season, the 2018 edition, they finished 7th out of seven teams.
History
In August 2016, it was reported that Prima Small Goods would be sponsoring Buang FC for the fourth consecutive year, indicating that the club was founded sometime before 2013.
Ahead of the 2017 Papua New Guinea National Soccer League, it was revealed that Buang would be making their debut in the competition. The side were due to kick off the season in May 2017 against Southern Strikers, but their opponents didn't show up. As a result, their first match of the season was an away tie against champions Lae City Dwellers, which they lost 6–0. The side failed to register a victory until the sixth round of fixtures, when they secured a 3–2 victory against Vitis Yamaros, before adding a second victory in the penultimate week of the season against Madang FC. They would ultimately finish 5th, despite failing to complete their final match amidst reports that they, alongside two other clubs, had failed to pay the full affiliation fee for the season.
The side struggled with payments again the following season, which started similarly to the previous season with an 8–1 defeat against Lae. As the season wore on, Buang failed to register any victories and several of their scheduled fixtures did not take place and were deferred. With one week until the playoffs, the side still had four washout matches to play, a situation blamed on 'administrative failures including financial responsibilities'. On May 11 2018, it was reported that the side had failed to comply with the NSL's requirements, and that remainder of their fixtures were awarded against them, 0–3. This left them bottom of the table with twelve defeats from twelve matches.

The infrapatellar fat pad (Hoffa's fat pad) is a cylindrical piece of fat that is situated inferior and posterior to the patella bone within the knee, intervening between the patellar ligament and synovial fold of the knee joint.
Clinical significance
The fat pad is a normal structure but it can sometimes become a problem:
It can become damaged and painful
It can be deliberately removed at arthroscopic surgery to make it easier for the surgeon to see what they are doing - but this can also lead to scarring and pain.
It can become hypertrophic and may become impinged between the patella and the femoral condyle, causing sharp pain when the leg is extended. This is called infrapatellar fat pad syndrome or Hoffa syndrome.
It can become involved in the process of arthrofibrosis and become scarred (fibrotic) and contracted, pulling the patella down into an abnormally low position.

Dukes of Windsor were an Australian electronic rock group. Although formed in Melbourne, Australia, they were based in Berlin, Germany. They are notable for their single "It's a War", released in Australia in 2008 and in Europe in early 2010, as well as their song "The Others", remixed by Australian electronic group TV Rock. They "fuse minimalist rhythms, punchy bass-lines, cascading guitar riffs, and glacial synths". Their music has been described as "angular and reductive, groovy and melodic", and has been termed the beautiful paradox of "robotic soul".
Biography
The Dukes' career began with the release of the EP Foxhunt in 2005. Debut album The Others followed in 2006, produced in Melbourne by expatriate American Jonathan Burnside (Faith No More, Nirvana). Extra production, mixing and mastering were provided by hardcore producers Pelle Henricsson and Eskil Lövström (Refused – The Shape of Punk to Come, Poison the Well, Hell Is for Heroes) from Tonteknik Studios in Umea, Sweden. After the release of the album, the band embarked on an intensive schedule of touring around Australia. After extensive national radio play, they were showcased as a Next Crop Artist by national broadcaster Triple J in November 2006.
In 2007, the remix of their debut single "The Others" was certified Gold in Australia (50,000 copies), was a top 10 ARIA single, spent three months at #1 on the ARIA Club Chart, and received an ARIA Award nomination. The guys also closed out the MTV Australian Music Video Awards ceremony in Sydney that year.
Second album Minus was released through Island Records in Australia in late 2008. To record the album, the band reunited with Pelle and Eskil, travelling to Tonteknik Studios in the Swedish winter. The album's title both represents these sub-zero temperatures, as well as the fresh clinical approach to the album. The stark sound is balanced with warm synth textures and vocals.
After the release of Minus, the band took in a string of sell-out gigs in capital cities, as well as completing dates nationally with Sneaky Sound System, Sam Sparro, The Music and The Vines. The band also featured heavily on Australian national broadcaster Triple J, with two Number One Most Played songs, and television performances on both Rove Live ("It's a War") and The Footy Show ("Get It"). Three singles were released from Minus, including "It's a War", "Get It" (both 2008), and "Runaway" (2009). The video clip for "Runaway" was also featured as a Ripe Clip of the Week on national music television channel Channel [V].
In the video game Midnight Club: Los Angeles (2008) one of his songs makes an appearance which is the song is In The Wild.
In December 2009 the band relocated to Berlin, Germany to continue writing their third full-length album. After signing a management and joint venture deal with local indie label Motor Music, they also released the album It's a War, an album of selected songs from both Minus and The Others. Since then, they are preparing to self-produce their next full-length album.

Spindrift (more rarely spoondrift) is the spray blown from cresting waves during a gale. This spray, which "drifts" in the direction of the gale, is one of the characteristics of a wind speed of 8 Beaufort and higher at sea. In Greek and Roman mythology, Leucothea was the goddess of spindrift.
Terminology
Spindrift is derived from the Scots language, but its further etymology is uncertain. Although the Oxford English Dictionary suggests it is a variant of spoondrift based on the way that word was pronounced in southwest Scotland, from spoon or spoom ("to sail briskly with the wind astern, with or without sails hoisted") and drift ("a mass of matter driven or forced onward together in a body, etc., especially by wind or water"), this is doubted by the because spoondrift is attested later than spindrift and it seems unlikely that the Scots spelling would have superseded the English one, and because the early use of the word in the form spenedrift by James Melville (1556–1614) is unlikely to have derived from spoondrift. In any case, spindrift was popularized in England through its use in the novels of the Scottish-born author William Black (1841–1898).
In the 1940s U.S. Navy, spindrift and spoondrift appear to have been used for different phenomena, as in the following record by the captain of the : "Visibility – which had been fair on the surface after moonrise – was now exceedingly poor due to spoondrift. Would that it were only the windblown froth of spindrift rather than the wind-driven cloudburst of water lashing the periscope exit eyepiece."
Spindrift or spoondrift is also used to refer to fine sand or snow that is blown off the ground by the wind.

InMediaRes Productions, LLC is an American game company that produces role-playing games and game supplements.
History
In 2003, Loren L. Coleman created the company InMediaRes Productions, which he founded with Heather Coleman, Randall Bills, Tara Bills, and Philip DeLuca. InMediaRes received their licence for the electronic publication of Classic Battletech fiction from WizKids in the fall of 2003. They made an announcement that year at GenCon 36 and had their full website, BattleCorps.com, ready to go a year later in August 2004. InMediaRes kicked things off with the fiction of founders Bills and Coleman, and from there, month-by-month they continued with their electronic delivery model. InMediaRes announced their plans to create a similar "Holostreets" web site for Shadowrun fiction in 2005 but have not done so. Some of the fiction from the BattleCorps website has made it to print as Battletech Corps Vol. 1: The Corps (2008) and Battletech Corps Vol. 2: First Strike (2010) – following some changes to InMediaRes' licence in 2007 and 2008.
In 2007, Rob Boyle and Bills tried to buy FanPro LLC from Fantasy Productions, and when that did not work out WizKids stepped in to mediate; although they were not willing to let Boyle and Bills create a new company, they were willing to give the Battletech and Shadowrun licenses to InMediaRes. After acquiring the rights to both FASA games, InMediaRes took on Boyle and Bills as regular staff – which had been part of the agreement with WizKids. Boyle remained as the Shadowrun Line Editor for the next few years, while Bills became a Managing Director of InMediaRes. InMediaRes created a subsidiary to hold their new gaming rights: Catalyst Game Labs. InMediaRes placed a higher value on electronic material, and in 2007 started charging for Catalyst's Shadowrun releases.
Company information
InMediaRes Productions was founded in 2003 by Loren and Heather Coleman, Tara and Randall N. Bills and Philip DeLuca with the express purpose of licensing the rights to publish new, canon Classic BattleTech fiction to the Internet from WizKids. Wizkids granted this license to IMR in the fall of 2003, which directly led to the creation of BattleCorps in August 2004. In 2005, IMR announced its intentions to branch out into Shadowrun fiction and established Holostreets with the intention of doing for Shadowrun what had been done for BattleTech. IMR hopes to have Holostreets up and running by 2008.
On April 20, 2007, IMR announced that it was in negotiations with WizKids and FanPro to acquire the licenses for Classic BattleTech and Shadowrun, as FanPro's licenses were set to expire. On May 17, 2007, IMR announced the creation of Catalyst Game Labs in preparation for the acquisition of the licenses. As of mid-2007, Catalyst began releasing new sourcebooks for both lines.
Heather Coleman serves as IMR's executive manager, while Loren is the submissions editor for BattleCorps.

This article outlines the grammar of the Dutch language, which shares strong similarities with German grammar and also, to a lesser degree, with English grammar.
Preliminary considerations
Vowel length is indicated in Dutch spelling using a combination of double vowels and double consonants. Changes from single to double letters are common when discussing Dutch grammar, but they are entirely predictable once one knows how the spelling rules work. This means that the spelling alternations do not form part of the grammar, and they are not discussed here. For more information, see Dutch orthography.
Word order
Dutch word order is underlyingly SOV (subject–object–verb). There is an additional rule called V2 in main clauses, which moves the finite (inflected for subject) verb into the second position in the sentence. Because of this, sentences with only one verb appear with SVO (subject–verb–object) or VSO (verb–subject–object) order.

| Yesterday||helped||Jan||his mother
|-
| colspan=9 style="font-style:normal" | "Yesterday, Jan helped his mother."
|}
However, any other verbs or verbal particles are placed at the end of the clause in accordance with the underlying SOV order, giving an intermediate order of SVOV(V)(V)...
{| style="font-style:italic"
| Jan||wilde||zijn moeder||gaan helpen
|- style="font-style:normal"
|Jan||wanted||his mother||to go help
|-
| colspan=9 style="font-style:normal" | "Jan wanted to go help his mother."
|}
In subordinate clauses, the order is exclusively SOV. In subordinate clauses two word orders are possible for the verb clusters and are referred to as the "red": , "because I have worked": like in English, where the auxiliary verb precedes the past participle, and the "green": , where the past participle precedes the auxiliary verb, "because I worked have": like in German. In Dutch, the green word order is most used in speech, and the red is the most used in writing, particularly in journalistic texts, but the "green" is also used in writing. Unlike in English, however, adjectives and adverbs must precede the verb: , "that the book is green". For an explanation of verb clusters of three or more see: V2 word order
{| style="font-style:italic"
| Jan||zei||dat||hij||zijn moeder||wilde||gaan helpen
|- style="font-style:normal"
|Jan||said||that||he||his mother||wanted||to go help
|-
| colspan=9 style="font-style:normal" | "Jan said that he wanted to go help his mother."
|}
In yes–no questions, the verb of the main clause is usually, but not always, placed first instead of second. If the verb comes second, this often implies disbelief, like in English: "The prisoner escaped?" vs. "Did the prisoner escape?"
{| style="font-style:italic"
|Hielp||Jan||zijn moeder?
|- style="font-style:normal"
|Helped||Jan||his mother?
|-
| colspan=5 style="font-style:normal" | "Did Jan help his mother?"
|}
{| style="font-style:italic"
|Wilde||Jan||zijn moeder||gaan helpen?
|- style="font-style:normal"
|Wanted||Jan||his mother||to go help?
|-
| colspan=5 style="font-style:normal" | "Did Jan want to go help his mother?"
|}
{| style="font-style:italic"
| Zei||Jan||dat||hij||zijn moeder||wilde||gaan helpen?
|- style="font-style:normal"
| Said||Jan||that||he||his mother||wanted||to go help?
|-
| colspan=9 style="font-style:normal" | "Did Jan say that he wanted to go help his mother?"
|}
In imperative sentences, the verb of the main clause is always placed first, although it may be preceded by a noun phrase indicating who is being addressed.
{| style="font-style:italic"
|(Jan,)||ga||je moeder||helpen!
|- style="font-style:normal"
|(Jan,)||go||your mother||help!
|-
| colspan=5 style="font-style:normal" | "(Jan,) go help your mother!"
|}
{| style="font-style:italic"
| (Jan,)||zeg||dat||je||je moeder||wilde||gaan helpen!
|- style="font-style:normal"
| (Jan,)||say||that||you||your mother||wanted||to go help!
|-
| colspan=9 style="font-style:normal" | "(Jan,) say that you wanted to go help your mother!"
|}
In the following example, the SOV order in the subordinate clause causes the various noun phrases to be separated from the verbs that introduce them, creating a relatively deep "nesting" structure:
{| style="font-style:italic"
|Ik zie dat || de ouders || de kinderen || Jan || het huis || hebben || laten || helpen || schilderen.
|- style="font-style:normal"
|I see that || the parents || the children || Jan || the house || have || let || help || paint
|-
| colspan=9 style="font-style:normal" | "I see that the parents have let the children help Jan paint the house."
|}
Adjectives always come before the noun to which they belong.
– red apples
In contrast to English, adpositional phrases come in the order time–manner–place, so that time modifiers usually come before place modifiers:
{| style="font-style:italic"
|Ik|| ben ||dit ||jaar ||naar ||Frankrijk ||geweest
|- style="font-style:normal"
|I|| am ||this ||year ||to ||France ||been
|-
| colspan="7" style="font-style:normal" | "I have been to France this year."
|}
Nouns
In Dutch, nouns are marked for number in singular and plural. Cases have largely fallen out of use, as have the endings that were used for them. Standard Dutch has three genders: masculine, feminine and neuter. However, in large parts of the Netherlands there is no grammatical distinction between what were originally masculine and feminine genders, and there is only a distinction between common and neuter. Gender is not overtly marked on nouns either, and must be learned for each noun.
Plural
The plural is formed by addition of (pronounced or ) or , with the usual spelling changes in the case of the former. Which of the two is used is somewhat unpredictable, although some general rules can be given:
Single-syllable words, which are common in Dutch, normally use :
"door" →
"boat" →
"house" →
"thief" →
Words ending in a schwa often use , but a sizable number use , particularly if they are older. Some nouns may allow either ending. Nouns that are substantivised forms of adjectives always use .
"aunt" →
"chocolate" →
"messenger" → or
"oxide" →
"great one" →
Relatively modern words ending in a long vowel use (with an apostrophe), but if they end in or then no apostrophe is used. Older ones generally use or (with diaeresis).
"baby" →
"café, bar, pub" →
"pizza" →
"radio" →
"roe" →
(also ) "drawer" → (but in colloquial usage sometimes also )
Words ending in unstressed or usually use . If is allowed it tends to be more archaic or poetic.
"agricultural field" →
"apple" → or (archaic) (note: for the derived noun "potato", the plural is still common, alongside )
"spoon" →
"key" →
"father" → or (archaic)
Initialisms (words pronounced as letters) follow the rules for whatever the final syllable suggests, usually by adding but occasionally :
"vehicle inspection" →
"CD" →
Plurals with vowel change
A number of common nouns inherited from Old Dutch have a short vowel in the singular but a long vowel in the plural. When short is lengthened in this way, it becomes long .
"day" → "days"
"lack, deficiency" → "deficiencies"
"ship" → "ships"
"lock" → "locks" (also the plural of "ditch")
Other nouns with this change include: "bath", "(money) contribution", "command", "sheet of paper; magazine" (not "leaf"), "offer", "roof", "valley", "hole", "prayer", "commandment", "gene", "glass", "god", "duke", "court", "cave; burrow", "member", "lottery ticket", "war", "path", "shot", "strike, battle", "smith", "large game; spectacle" (not in the sense of a smaller everyday game), "staff", "vat, barrel", "ban, prohibition", "treaty", "permission", "road, way".
The noun "town, city" has umlaut in the plural alongside lengthening: "towns, cities". The plural of nouns ending in the suffix "-ness, -hood" is irregular .
Plurals in
A few neuter nouns have a plural in . This ending derives from the old Germanic "z-stem" nouns, and is cognate with the English (, , etc.). The following nouns have this type of plural:
"bone" → (when used in the sense "leg", the plural is the regular )
"leaf" → (when used in the sense "sheet, magazine", the plural is )
"egg" →
"rank, file" →
"mood, emotion" →
"good" →
"fowl" →
"calf" →
"child" →
"cloth" → (archaic) or "clothes" (nowadays a plurale tantum like in English)
"lamb" →
"song" → (somewhat dated; the plural of the diminutive is often used instead: )
"wheel" →
"cattle" →
"people, nation" → (the regular is also used)
When used in compounds, the stem of these nouns usually includes the . For example: "eggshell", "child labour", "traditional costume", "beef tartare". This is not a rule, however, and compounds with the singular form also exist: "egg-shape", "beef".
Foreign plurals
For a number of nouns of Latin origin, a Latin-like plural may be used. Depending on the word and the formalness of the setting, a regular plural in or can also be used.
"museum" → or
"politician" →
Some modern scientific words borrowed from Latin or Greek form their plurals with vowel lengthening, like the native words listed above. These words are primarily Latin agent nouns ending in and names of particles ending in . Alongside the change in vowel length, there is also a stress shift in the plural, patterned on the Latin third declension where this also occurs. In each case, the singular follows a Latin-like stress, while the plural stresses the or . Some examples:
( "electron") → ( "electrons")
( "doctor (holder of a doctorate)") → ( "doctors")
( "graviton") → ( "gravitons")
( "reactor") → ( "reactors")
Words borrowed from English or French will generally form their plural in , in imitation of the native plural of those languages. This applies especially to recent borrowings.

Diminutive
Many nouns have a diminutive form alongside the normal base form. This form is used to indicate small size, or emphasize a particular endearing quality. Use of diminutives is very common, so much that they could be considered part of the noun's inflectional paradigm.
There are two basic ways to form the diminutive: with or with . The former is the standard way, while the latter is found in some dialects, mostly in the south (Brabantian and Limburgish). The diminutive on is common in informal Belgian Dutch (due to final-n deletion in Dutch, the final -n is often not pronounced). All diminutives have neuter gender, no matter what the gender of the original noun was. The plural is always formed with .
Diminutive in
The basic suffix is modified in different ways depending on the final sounds of the noun it is attached to.
The is removed from the ending when added to words ending in a fricative or plosive (-b, -c, -d, -f, -g, -ch, -k, -p, -q, -s, -sj, -t, -v, -x, -z).
hond → hondje
brief → briefje
hok → hokje
vis → visje
douche → doucheje ( → )
race → raceje ( → ~ )
The last two words end in a consonant sound, despite not being spelled that way.
When the vowel of the last syllable is both short and stressed, and it is followed by a sonorant, an extra schwa is inserted, giving .
kom → kommetje
pil → pilletje
lam → lammetje
ding → dingetje
vriendin → vriendinnetje
baron → baronnetje
In all other cases, the basic form is used. This includes:
Words ending in a stressed tense/long vowel or diphthong.
Words ending in any unstressed vowel.
Words ending in one of the above types of vowel, followed by , , .
Words ending in one of the above types of vowel, followed by . The resulting combination is assimilated to .
Words ending in one of the above types of vowel, followed by . The resulting combination is assimilated to .
When the final vowel is long, it is doubled accordingly. Final , which does not really occur in native Dutch words, is converted into . Final gets an apostrophe.
koe → koetje
auto → autootje
mama → mamaatje
vrouw → vrouwtje
taxi → taxietje
baby → baby'tje
school → schooltje
kuil → kuiltje
maan → maantje
muur → muurtje
appel → appeltje
boom → boompje
duim → duimpje
bodem → bodempje
koning → koninkje
houding → houdinkje
In the case of the vowels and , there is some ambiguity. While pronounced short in many dialects, they can also be long for some speakers, so forms both with and without the extra can be found.
bloem → bloemetje or bloempje (however has an additional meaning: )
wiel → wieltje or wieletje
Diminutive in
In the south, the ending is often used instead. It also has different forms depending on the preceding sounds, with rules very similar to those for the ending.
An older form of this ending was , which is more like its German cognate . This form is not used much today, due to final n-deletion which is common in Dutch, but it is still found in older texts and names. A famous example is .
When the word ends in a velar consonant (-g, -ch, -k, -ng), an extra dissimilative is inserted, giving .
dag → dagske
lach → lachske
stok → stokske
ding → dingske
koning → koningske
An extra is inserted in three cases, giving :
Words ending in a non-velar plosive (-p, -b, -t, -d).
Words ending in , which is not a velar itself but would assimilate to one before the following .
Words ending in , or preceded by a stressed short vowel.
Examples:
hond → hondeke
voet → voeteke
map → mappeke
boon → boneke
bon → bonneke
kom → kommeke
hol → holleke
bar → barreke
In all other cases, the ending is the basic . This includes:
Words ending in a vowel.
Words ending in a non-velar fricative (-f, -v, -s, -z).
Words ending in , , preceded by a long vowel, diphthong, or unstressed vowel.
Examples:
mama → mamake
koe → koeke
slof → slofke
doos → dooske
school → schoolke
muur → muurke
boom → boomke
bodem → bodemke
Umlaut in diminutives
Standard Dutch, as well as most dialects, do not use umlaut as a grammatical marker. However, some eastern dialects (East Brabantian, Limburgish and many Low Saxon areas) have regular umlaut of the preceding vowel in diminutives. As this is not a standard feature, it is rare in the written language except when used to evoke a local feeling. It can be more common in the spoken language. Some examples:
→
→
→
Diminutives of nouns with irregular plurals
Nouns with irregular plurals tend to have the same irregularity in the diminutive as well. This is not a rule, however, and both forms can often be found. For some nouns, the irregularity is more common in the plural of the diminutive, and only rarely appears in the singular. Some examples:
"leaf; sheet of paper" → "small leaf; folio", in plural also
"day" → "short day", in plural also
"drinking glass" → "small glass"
"child" → "toddler", in plural also
"path" → "narrow or short path" (vs. "toad" → "toadlet")
"wheel" → or "little wheel"
"ship" → "little ship"
"game" → "toy"
"barrel" → "small barrel"
Cases
Noun cases were still prescribed in the formal written standard up until the 1940s, but were abolished then because they had long disappeared from the spoken language. Because of this, they are nowadays restricted mostly to set phrases and are archaic. The former Dutch case system resembled that of modern German, and distinguished four cases: nominative (subject), genitive (possession or relation), dative (indirect object, object of preposition) and accusative (direct object, object of preposition). Only the nominative and genitive are productive, with the genitive seldom used and only surviving in the margins of the language. Some examples of the three non-nominative cases in fixed expressions:
Genitive: "judgement day", "Kingdom of the Nederlands"
Dative: "in fact", "nowadays", "hereby"
Accusative: "eventually", "good evening"
The role of cases has been taken over by prepositions and word order in modern Dutch. For example, the distinction between direct and indirect object is now made by placing the indirect object before the direct object, or by using the preposition aan "to" with the indirect object. The genitive is replaced with the preposition van "of". Usage of cases with prepositions has disappeared as well. Nowadays, the case of each noun is interpreted mainly by word order. Nominatives go first, datives after, and lastly the accusatives. Nouns after prepositions are also accusative.
Cases are still occasionally used productively, which are often calques of existing phrases. This is particularly true of the genitive case, which is still used occasionally to evoke a formal style. Speakers' awareness of how the cases were originally used is generally low. People may confuse the old masculine/neuter genitive article and the corresponding noun ending with the article (with no ending) used for feminine or plural nouns.
Articles
Dutch has both a definite article ("the") and an indefinite article ("a" or "an").
and are normally pronounced and , only emphatically as and , respectively. They may sometimes also be contracted in spelling to reflect this: , .
There is no indefinite article in the plural, the noun is just used on its own. However, there is a negative indefinite article ("no, not a, not any"). Similarly to it is invariable, showing no inflection for gender or number.
("That is not a man")
("That is not a woman")
("That is not a house")
("Those aren't men")
("I have no water", "I don't have any water")
The articles formerly had forms for the different cases as well. See Archaic Dutch declension for more information.
Adjectives and adverbs
Within the Dutch noun phrase, adjectives are placed in front of the noun and after the article (if present).
Inflection
The inflection of adjectives follows the gender and number of the following noun. They also inflect for definiteness, like in many other Germanic languages. When preceded by a definite article, demonstrative determiner, possessive determiner or any other kind of word that acts to distinguish one particular thing from another, the definite form of the adjective is used. In other cases, such as with an indefinite article, indefinite determiner (like "many" or "all"), the indefinite form is used.
Despite the many different aspects that determine the inflection of an adjective, the adjective only occurs in two main forms. The uninflected form or base form is the adjective without any endings. The inflected form has the ending . The inflection of adjectives is as follows:
Adjectives are only inflected in this way when they are in an attributive role, where they precede a noun and modify it. Adjectives in a predicative role, which are used in predicative sentences with a copula verb, are not inflected and always use the uninflected form. Compare:
("the small man") — ("the man is small")
("small houses") — ("houses are small")
Most adjectives ending in have no inflected form. This includes adjectives for materials, as well as the past participles of strong verbs.
("the wooden chair")
("the brick house")
("the broken lamps")
Adjectives that end in a vowel in their uninflected form are rare, and there are no fixed rules for them. Often, the uninflected and inflected forms are the same, but sometimes an extra is added on anyway.
Additional uses of the uninflected form
Uninflected adjectives are occasionally found in other contexts. With neuter nouns, if the adjective is inherently part of the noun as part of a set phrase, then the uninflected form is often used in the definite singular as well:
("the public transport", as a specific entity)
("the public transport", meaning the transport that is public, it could be any transport)
("the big dictionary of the Dutch language", as a proper title)
("the big dictionary of the Dutch language", a dictionary that happens to be big)
("the civil code", as a proper name)
Indefinite adjectives describing people often remain uninflected, if they express a personal quality. This is not stylistically neutral, but has a formal, rhetorical or poetic ring to it, and can occasionally distinguish literal meanings of an adjective from a more figurative one. Furthermore, this is only done with some nouns, not all.
("a talented writer") — (the same)
("a great man"; figurative meaning) — ("a big/tall man"; literal meaning) — ("a great/big/tall woman"; is always used with )
Partitive
Adjectives have a special form called the partitive that is used after an indefinite pronoun such as 'something', 'nothing', 'much, a lot', 'little, a few'. The partitive form takes the ending .
("Tell me something interesting.")
("I've got to meet somebody new.")
Adjectives already ending in or don't take this ending:
("I've put on something purple.") (the base form is already )
("There isn't much fantastic about it.")
The few adjectives that end in a long vowel take instead with an apostrophe like certain noun plurals.
("I didn't like purple so much, so now I have something lilac.")
Adjectives used as adverbs
The uninflected form of an adjective is implicitly also an adverb. This makes it hard at times to distinguish adjectives and adverbs in Dutch.
("That is a fast car. The car drives fast.")
("We were kindly welcomed by those kind people.")
Adjectives used as nouns
The inflected form of an adjective can also be used as a noun. Three types can be distinguished:
The noun that the adjective refers to is omitted but implied. The adjective will then be inflected as if the noun had been present, although the inflected form is normally used even in the indefinite neuter singular.
("You can buy this car in various colours. Do you want the green, the blue or the yellow one?")
("We have three children, two big ones and a small one.", alternatively )
The adjective is used as a masculine/feminine noun in its own right, usually referring to a person. The will always be added, even to adjectives that already end in . The plural is formed with .
("You drive like a blind person!")
("Where are you, my loved one?")
("Release the prisoner!", from the past participle "captured, imprisoned")
("The rich should help the poor.")
The adjective is used as a neuter mass noun describing a concept.
("I can't answer, because I don't understand what was asked.")
("Fear of the unknown is very normal.")
Comparative and superlative
Adjectives have three degrees of comparison: positive, comparative, and superlative. The comparative and superlative are formed synthetically, by adding endings to the adjective. The comparative and superlative can also be formed analytically by using "more" and "most", but this is much rarer than in English. The analytic forms are used only when the word would become particularly long, or when it would become hard to pronounce (particularly in the superlative).
The comparative is formed by adding to the base form. For adjectives that end in , the comparative is formed by adding to the base form instead. The comparative inflects as an adjective in its own right, having inflected and partitive forms. The uninflected comparative can be used as an adverb as well.
("I'm big, but you're bigger.")
("This toy can be dangerous for smaller children.")
("This coat is more expensive.")
("Do you have nothing cheaper?")
("You did it even more fantastically than last time!")
The superlative is formed by adding . This is equivalent to adding to the partitive, and the same rules apply. When an adjective ends in or , this becomes and , but these forms are more rarely used, and the analytic form with is preferred.
("Mont Blanc is the highest mountain of the Alps.")
("This is the dirtiest toilet I've ever seen.", alternatively )
Because it is most often used to distinguish one particular thing from all others, the superlative is generally accompanied by a definite article. This means it is rarely found in the uninflected form. Even in predicative sentences, a definite article precedes, so it becomes more like a noun phrase with an implied noun.
("This coat is the most expensive.")
("This house is the biggest.")
When used as an adverb, the superlative is always preceded by the neuter article , unlike in English where this is optional. Either the uninflected or the inflected form can be used, without any difference in meaning. This form can also be used as part of predicative sentences, which can lead to a mismatch of genders which may seem odd at first glance, but is correct nonetheless:
("This coat is (the) most expensive")
("This house is (the) biggest.")
("Our car drives (the) fastest of all.")
The first sentence meaning "This coat is the most expensive" has the same meaning as the first sentence further above. They are interchangeable, but they would be parsed differently. With the article , there is an implied noun, and it might better be translated as "the most expensive one". The superlative must also be in the inflected form in this case, would be incorrect. With the article , there is no implied noun, and both the inflected () and uninflected form () can be used.
Some comparatives and superlatives are suppletive, and use a different root than the base form. These are irregular.
'good/well, better, best'
'much/many, more, most'
'little/few, less/fewer, least/fewest'
'willingly/gladly, rather/more preferably, most preferably'
'often, more often, most often'
When an adjective is a compound of an adverb and a verb participle, the adverb sometimes changes rather than the whole word. A space may be added as well.
'close/nearby, closer, closest'
'densely populated, more densely populated, most densely populated'
Pronouns and determiners
Personal pronouns
As in English, Dutch personal pronouns still retain a distinction in case: the nominative (subjective), genitive (≈ possessive) and accusative/dative (objective). A distinction was once prescribed between the accusative 3rd person plural pronoun and the dative , but it was artificial and both forms are in practice variants of the same word. These two cases are still sometimes taught to students, and may be used in formal Dutch, but no distinction is made in the everyday spoken language.
Like many other European languages, Dutch has a T-V distinction in its personal pronouns. The second-person pronouns, which are used to refer to the listener, exist in informal and formal varieties. However, because of the relatively complex and dialect-specific way in which the pronouns developed, this is less straightforward than it is in for example French or German. The old Germanic/Indo-European second-person singular pronoun / (English ) fell out of use in Dutch during the Middle Ages, while it remained in use in the closely related Limburgish and in neighboring Low German, West Frisian and German languages. The role of the old singular pronoun was taken over by the old plural form, which differed slightly depending on dialect: in the South, in the North. This development also happened in English, which once had a T-V distinction but then lost it when the old informal pronoun was lost. In Dutch, however, further changes occurred, and the North and South developed differently:
In the North and in the standard language, a new formal pronoun was introduced, which made distinctly informal. A new second-person plural pronoun was created by adding "people" to the old singular (compare English ). This created , an informal pronoun when speaking to many people. The formal pronoun is used for both singular and plural.
In many Southern dialects, the older situation remained, and is still a neutral way to speak to a person in those dialects. However, informal and formal are commonly used in the standard language of the South, like in the North.
Many dialects created their own plural forms of pronouns, such as or similar in the South for the second person plural, and also for the third person plural ("they"), which later became a standard in Afrikaans. These forms are not part of standard Dutch.
Many pronouns can occur in a stressed form and an unstressed (clitic) form. The stressed form retains the original full vowel, and is used when particular emphasis or contrast is needed. The unstressed form normally replaces the vowel with a schwa and is used in other cases. The unstressed forms are shown in brackets; those spelled with an apostrophe or hyphen are not used often in formal written text, and are used mainly in informal speech.
In addition to , , and having unstressed counterparts, they are themselves in a technical way unstressed forms of the demonstrative pronouns; is an unstressed form of , while the rest are a form of . It is formal and normal to replace these personal pronouns with demonstrative pronouns.
(He/she likes milk.)
(It is very fast.)
The pronouns are the only place in the standard language where the difference between masculine and feminine gender is significant. Consequently, the usage of the pronouns differs depending on how many genders are distinguished by a speaker. Speakers in the North will use feminine pronouns for female people, and the masculine pronouns for male people and for common-gender (masculine or feminine) nouns. In the South, the feminine pronouns are used for feminine nouns and the masculine pronouns are used for masculine nouns. See Gender in Dutch grammar for more details.
The standard language prescribes that in the third person plural, is accusative and is to be used for the direct object, and is dative, and is for the indirect object. This distinction was artificially introduced in the 17th century, and is largely ignored in spoken language and not well understood by Dutch speakers. Consequently, the third person plural forms and are interchangeable in normal usage, with being more common. The shared unstressed form is also often used as both direct and indirect objects and is a useful avoidance strategy when people are unsure which form to use.
In the West and among younger speakers, in informal spoken language, is also used as a subject pronoun by some. This is considered heavily stigmatised and substandard.
Possessive determiners
Possessive determiners also have stressed and unstressed forms, like the pronouns.
Possessive determiners are not inflected when used attributively, unlike adjectives. Thus:
("He is my husband.")
("That is my house.")
An exception is , which inflects like an indefinite adjective, receiving when used with a masculine, feminine or plural noun. Possessive determiners are themselves definite in meaning, so any following adjectives will occur in the definite form even when the possessive itself does not:
("our big house")
("our big houses").
The inflected form is also used when the determiner is used predicatively. It is always preceded by a definite article in this case, giving the appearance of an implied noun. For example: ("This is my car. The car is mine.", more literally "The car is the my one"). has no inflected form, the sentence is usually rephrased with instead: ("The car is of you.")
Before the case system was abolished from written Dutch, and in southern spoken language, all possessive determiners inflect(ed) as indefinite adjectives, not only . They also used to inflect for case. While this is no longer done in modern Dutch, some relics still remain in fixed expressions. See Archaic Dutch declension for more details.
Demonstrative determiners
Like English, Dutch has two sets of demonstrative for different degrees of distance. A third, unspecific degree also exists, which is fulfilled by the personal pronouns, but see further below on pronominal adverbs.
The demonstratives inflect like indefinite adjectives, but irregularly. They are themselves definite in meaning, so any following adjectives will occur in the definite form.
When the demonstrative pronoun is used exophorically (referring to something that has not yet been mentioned in the text) with a copula verb, the "uninflected" forms and are always used:
("This is my new car. I bought this one yesterday.")
Even though is of common gender and otherwise requires the form . In this sentence, the first pronoun () is exophoric, while the second one () refers back to .
The exophoric pronoun, when used in a predicative sentence, is always the complement and never the subject. The inflection of the verb follows the other argument instead, and will be plural even when the pronoun is not:
("That is a new house")
("This is my father")
("Those are new houses", notice singular , with plural verb agreeing with plural noun )
("These are my children", same with )
Pronominal adverbs
A pronominal adverb is a location adverb that corresponds in meaning to a pronoun, and takes its place. These exist in English as well, but are rare; examples are ("by that"), ("with this") and ("upon what" or "upon which").
Pronominal adverbs are used to replace the combination of prepositions with pronouns. They are very common in Dutch, and in some cases mandatory. The following table shows the pronouns that have adverbial forms:
Both the combination of preposition+pronoun and the pronominal adverb can often be used, although the adverbial form is more common. The pronoun is used mainly when one needs to be specific about it. The neuter pronoun can never appear as the object of a preposition; the adverbial form is mandatory. Combinations of a preposition and a relative pronoun are also usually replaced by a pronominal adverb. E.g. The combination (with which) is distinctly dated and usually replaced by .
The masculine and feminine pronouns are used more often in the pronoun form, particularly when referring to persons, but the adverbial form may be used occasionally as well.
Pronominal adverbs are formed by replacing the pronoun by its corresponding locative adverb and the preposition by its adverbial form and putting them in reverse order. The locative adverbs , and are separated from the prepositional part by a space, while the other four are joined to it. For example:
("I'm counting on your support.")
("I'm counting on it.")
("I'm counting on nothing.", more freely "I'm not counting on anything.")
For most prepositions the adverbial form is with the preposition itself, but there are two exceptions:
"with" →
("He agrees with all proposals.")
("He agrees with it.")
("He agrees with everything.")
"(up) to" →
("I can't bring myself to (commit) these atrocities.")
("I can't bring myself to this.")
There are prepositions like , , that do not possess an adverbial form, which makes it difficult to use them in a relative construction, because the relative pronouns like , are becoming obsolete.
Conversely, there are a number of prepositional adverbs like or that cannot be used as prepositions, but they occur regularly as part of a pronominal adverb or of a separable verb.
The adverbial pronoun and the prepositional adverb can be separated from each other, with the prepositional part placed at the end of the clause. This is not always required, however, and some situations allow them to remain together.
("That, I am counting on."), they can be combined too: or
("I am not counting on it."), here they must be separated.
Notice that in Dutch the last word is generally analyzed as an adverb, not a preposition. Thus, the often quoted 'rule' that a sentence should not end in a preposition is strictly adhered to.
Verbs
Dutch verbs inflect for person and number, and for two tenses and three moods. However, there is considerable syncretism among the forms. In modern usage only the present singular indicative has different forms for different persons, all other number, tense and mood combinations have just one form for all persons.
Dutch verbs inflect in these two main tenses:
The present tense is used to indicate present or future time, and may therefore be considered a "non-past" tense. It can express actions that are punctual, progressive or habitual.
The past tense is used to indicate past time. The actions can be progressive or habitual at the time being discussed, as well as punctual in a sequence of retold events. It is not used to indicate completed punctual events that have relevance for the present; instead the (periphrastic) present perfect is used in this role. Contrast Dutch with English — the time being discussed is past, but it is considered relevant in the present moment.
Verbs also inflect for the following moods:
The indicative mood is the default mood of Dutch and is used for general statements.
The subjunctive mood is used for statements that are perceived as hypothetical or desired. Due to syncretism it is only clearly distinguished from the indicative in the present singular. It is only slightly productive in modern Dutch, and is mainly restricted to formulaic phrases otherwise, such as "long live the king" or "may they rest in peace". Usually, it is replaced by the indicative or by a periphrastic conditional phrase.
The imperative mood is used for commands. It exists only for the second person; imperatives for other persons are expressed periphrastically ( "let's..."). Only one form is used for both the singular and plural imperative in modern Dutch. The older separate plural imperative form has fallen out of use and is now archaic or overly formal in tone.
Other grammatical categories such as future tense, passive voice, progressive or perfect aspect may be expressed periphrastically. Verbs additionally have an infinitive and two participles (present and past).
Conjugation
Dutch conjugation resembles that of other continental West Germanic languages such as (Standard) German and Low German, and also the other Germanic languages to a lesser degree. Dutch retains the two main types of verb inherited from Proto-Germanic: weak and strong. Preterite-present verbs are also present, but can be considered irregular. All regular verbs conjugate the same in the present tense (including the infinitive and present participle), so the weak versus strong distinction only matters for the past tense.
The following is a general overview of the endings:
Weak verbs are the most common type of verb in Dutch, and the only productive type (all newly created verbs are weak). They form their past tense with an ending containing a dental consonant, or . Which of the two is used depends on the final consonant of the verb stem. If the stem ends in a voiceless consonant, then is used, otherwise . It is often summarised with the mnemonic "'t kofschip": if the verb stem ends with one of the consonants of (), then the past tense will have . However, it also applies for , and and any other letter that is voiceless in pronunciation.
("to work, worked")
("to learn/teach, learned/taught")
("to rage, raged")
("to lose/get rid of, lost")
Strong verbs are less common in Dutch, but they include many of the most common verbs. They form their past tenses by changing the vowel of the stem (ablaut). For strong verbs one needs to learn three or four principal parts: the infinitive, the past (singular), optionally the past plural, and the past participle. However, the vowel patterns are often predictable and can be divided into seven or so classes, based on the vowels used in these three principal parts. Some verbs are a mixture of two classes.
Examples:
("ride, rode, ridden", class 1)
("bind, bound, bound", class 3a)
("give, gave, given", class 5)
("walk/run, walked, walked", class 7b)
A number of verbs mix the strong and weak types of past. They have a strong past participle but all the other past tense forms are weak, or the other way around.
("laugh, laughed, laughed", weak past, strong past participle)
("salt, salted, salted", weak past, strong past participle)
("ask, asked, asked", strong past, weak past participle)
Some of the most used verbs in the Dutch language have irregular conjugations which don't follow the normal rules. This includes especially the preterite-present verbs. These verbs historically had present tense forms that resembled the past tenses of strong verbs, and can be recognised in modern Dutch by the absence of the in the third-person singular present (the English equivalents lack the in the same way). Preterite-present verbs have weak past tenses, but often irregularly formed. Many of these verbs are now used as auxiliary verbs.
The additional of the second-person -form is optional in the past tense for weak verbs and is usually considered archaic. For strong verbs, the -t is always required.
Modal Verbs
Like English, Dutch uses modal verbs, like ("can"), ("may"), ("shall/will"), ("must"), and ("want"). These verbs act special and can provide the usage of infinitives. Modal verbs are also some of the few verbs which have irregular conjugation in the present tense.
A special feature of Dutch modal verbs not present in English is that speakers tend to omit the infinitive verb ("go"), ("come"), and similar verbs when a modal verb is finite and there is a preposition.
("I do not want to go to school.")
("He wants to come by car.")
Non-finite forms
Dutch possesses present and past participles.
Present participle
The present participle is always progressive in meaning, and indicates that something is performing the action as the subject. It is usually used as an attributive adjective, and inflects as such as well.
("I saw a falling star.")
("Barking dogs don't bite.")
("The news spreads like wildfire." — literally "like a running fire")
It can also be used as an adverb, meaning "while ...ing". Either the uninflected or inflected form can be used, although the uninflected form is more common outside set phrases.
("One learns while doing.")
("This work is so easy, I'm getting rich while sleeping.")
("Crying, the boy told what had happened that day.")
Rarely, the present participle is used as a predicate, to indicate progressive actions as in English, such as ("The ball was rolling."). This is usually associated with a stilted or overly formal style. It is more usual to use plus the infinitive.
The present participle of a transitive verb can be preceded by an object or an adverb. Often, the space between the two words is replaced with a hyphen or removed altogether, creating a compound adjective.
("I was stuck in slow-moving traffic.")
("The little dog let out a heart-rending cry.")
("Rock-throwing youths are an increasingly severe problem.")
Past participle
The past participle indicates completed actions. It is also used to form the perfect and the passive voice with a variety of auxiliary verbs. The formation of these is discussed in the section "periphrastic forms".
As an adjective, the meaning of the past participle can be either active (having performed the action) or passive (having undergone the action), depending on the type of verb:
For transitive verbs, the meaning is passive. Examples:
("The made choice (the choice that had been made) turned out to be not so great.")
("Broken glass is dangerous.")
For unaccusative intransitive verbs, the meaning is active. Examples:
("The fallen man could not get back up again.")
("Everyone went looking for the dog that had disappeared.")
For unergative intransitive verbs, the past participle cannot be used as an adjective at all. These participles can not be used with a copula such as ("to be") either, but only to form the perfect.
Like present participles, past participles can be preceded by an adverb.
("Hastily-made choices often lead to problems later.")
("I prefer freshly-made orange juice.")
("Learned young is done old.", a proverb)
Infinitive
Verb phrases
The infinitive can be used in larger verb phrases with an auxiliary verb or modal verb, much as in English. Like present participles, the infinitive can be accompanied by an object or adverb.
("I can see the car")
Verbal noun
The infinitive also doubles as a verbal noun, corresponding to the English gerund in . The infinitive, when used as a noun, is neuter and has no plural. Dutch also has a feminine gerund in , but this is no longer productive and usually has a concrete, technical meaning, e.g. 'borrowing, lending' vs. 'loan'; 'educating' vs. 'education'.
– 'The killing of people is forbidden', or less literally 'Killing people is forbidden'.
– 'I hate waiting.'
In the past, the infinitive was inflected for the dative and genitive. There are a few remnants of the latter, e.g. in:
– 'See you!'
. – 'A distance that can be walked in one hour.'
It also occurs in expressions involving (until ... resulted):
– 'He was beaten until bleeding resulted.'
Impersonal imperative
The infinitive is also commonly used as a kind of impersonal or polite imperative (infinitivus pro imperativo). This often has a meaning much like the English “one must (not)…” or “please do (not)…” and can be used to soften a direct command into more of a strong request, or to make the command more general (e.g. on signs and in written instructions) rather than directed at the listener or reader at that specific moment in time. The distinction is not always clear, and often both the infinitive and the imperative may be used without a strong difference in meaning.
'No smoking' (or less literally 'please refrain from smoking'), versus 'don't smoke!'.
'Pay here', alternatively .
'Shake before use'.
With
The infinitive is often preceded by the preposition , analogous to the phrase + verb in English. It is used in combination with certain verbs like 'to begin'.
("He started to cough")
In combination with 'to be' it can express a potentiality.
("That was to be expected").
The extended form can be used as an adjective:
("The crowd that is to be expected")
But it can still carry adverbial expressions or objects:
("The crowd that is be expected in that case").
Compound infinitives also exist for the perfect and the future, as well as for the passive voice of transitive verbs, and they can be used to form abridged dependent clauses.
("He promised that he would pay that")
Transitivity
Depending on meaning and use, Dutch verbs belong to one of a handful of transitivity classes:
Unergative intransitive verbs do not take a grammatical object, and have active meaning (the subject is the agent). The perfect is formed with the auxiliary . They possess an impersonal passive voice.
Unaccusative intransitive verbs do not take a grammatical object, and have passive or middle meaning (the subject is the patient or there is no clear agent). The perfect is formed with the auxiliary .
Transitive verbs take a grammatical object. The subject is the agent, the object is either direct (patient) or indirect. The passive voice is formed with the auxiliary . The perfect is formed with the auxiliary when the direct object becomes subject, and with the auxiliary when the indirect object becomes subject. The perfect passive is formed with .
Ditransitive verbs take two grammatical objects, a direct object (patient) and an indirect object. These act like transitive verbs in most respects.
Middle verbs, also called verbs of innocence, are essentially transitive unaccusative verbs, and take a grammatical object. The perfect is formed with the auxiliary , while the passive is formed with and the perfect passive also with . The use of the perfect auxiliary carries an implication that the subject is not the direct initiator of the action or cannot or does not want to be held responsible for it. This includes verbs such as "to forget" and "to lose (an object)".
Reflexive verbs are accompanied by a reflexive pronoun as object
Impersonal verbs only take an indefinite pronoun (it) as subject
Absolute verbs are similar to unergatives, but they lack an impersonal passive form
Verbs can belong to several classes at once, depending on use. Specifically, many transitive verbs can also be used intransitively, and are thus ambitransitive. For example, "I eat an apple" contains a transitive verb, while "I eat" contains an unergative intransitive verb. Most ditransitive verbs can also be used as monotransitives (with only one object, direct or indirect) or even intransitives.
Whether an intransitive use is unergative or unaccusative depends both on the verb and on the meaning in which it is used. Generally, most transitive verbs become unergatives when the object is removed; these are accusative verbs. But there is also a sizable number of so-called ergative verbs, which become unaccusative when there is no object. Consequently, these verbs switch from active to either passive or middle meaning when the object is dropped. Examples exist in both Dutch and English, such as the transitive "I break the glass" versus unaccusative "the glass breaks". In both cases, the glass is the patient, but in the first case it's the direct object while in the second it's the subject. The auxiliary of such verbs is used for both passive and intransitive use, making those uses essentially indistinguishable. The phrase can be interpreted as both "the glass has been broken" and "the glass is broken".
Alongside the normal conjugated verb forms, Dutch has a variety of verbal meanings that are expressed using auxiliary verbs or other additional words. The use of auxiliary verbs, particularly of the perfect tenses and the passive voice -if extant-, depends on the transitivity class of the verb.
Perfect, future and passive
The perfect indicates that an action is complete. In Dutch the completion can take place in present, past, present future or past future:
'I ate', literally 'I have eaten' – present perfect (with simple past meaning)
'I had eaten' or 'I had been eating' – past perfect (with pluperfect meaning)
'I will have eaten' – future perfect
'I would have eaten' – past conditional (either as future-in-the-past or conditional mood)
The future tenses all take the auxiliary verb , cognate with English .
The passive voice indicates that the subject undergoes the action rather than performing it itself. Both categories are formed with a variety of auxiliary verbs.
As can be seen in the table, in the case of unaccusative verbs, the auxiliary cannot be used for the perfect, unlike in English. In general these are verbs that describe a process (e.g. to happen, melt, die) rather than an action. That means that there is no (clear) actor involved.
As in English, ergative verbs can occur both in a transitive (I break the glass) and in an unaccusative mode (the glass breaks). In Dutch the perfect of the latter takes 'to be', so that can either be seen as a perfect passive or as a perfect unaccusative. Dutch differs from German in that the latter language would add the participle to the passive sentence: .
Unergatives in general do possess passive forms, but they are impersonal. They typically take the adverb as a dummy subject and are hard to translate directly into English. means something like 'There's barking going on' or 'There's some dog barking'. Impersonal constructions of this kind are quite common in the language. The passives of transitive verbs can also be given an impersonal flavor by adding the dummy adverb , provided the subject is indefinite, e.g. 'There are boxes being opened' or 'Boxes are being opened'.
Verbs of motion like 'to walk', 'to swim', 'to ride, drive' typically occur as unaccusative / unergative pairs. If the motion is directional it is seen as a and the auxiliary is . If the motion is not directional it is seen as an action and the auxiliary verb is , unless the verb is used in the impersonal passive in which case it can take and .
directional
– 'I am walking home'
– 'I walked home'
non-directional
– 'I walk a lot'
– 'I walked a lot'
– 'There is a lot of walking going on'
Note also that the meanings of the formations that use correspond to the meaning of the past participle when used as an adjective. Thus, unergative verbs can never use as the auxiliary as their past participles cannot be used as adjectives. Furthermore, for ergative verbs, the passive does not differ significantly in meaning from the regular intransitive present tense. This is also true of English: a glass that is a glass that .
The forms listed above can occur in both present and past tense. The table lists the present tense forms, while the past tense is formed by conjugating the auxiliary verb in the past tense. Thus, this creates 'I had opened the box.' and so on.
When the perfect is created from a phrase that already uses an auxiliary verb, the auxiliary gets used in the infinitive form, rather than the past participle. Some auxiliary verbs even have no past participle due to this. For example:
'I will come tomorrow.' → 'I had been going to come tomorrow.'
'He has to close the door.' → 'He has had to close the door.'
Ditransitive verbs
Ditransitive verbs carry both a direct and an indirect object. In English both objects can become the subject of a passive construction and the same auxiliary is used to form it:
I give the man a book
The man is given a book by me
A book is given to the man by me.
In Dutch a verb like (to donate) follows a similar pattern but the auxiliary (to get) is used for the pseudo-passive construction that renders the indirect object into the subject, whereas is used for passive involving the direct object:
Ik schenk de man een boek
De man krijgt van mij een boek geschonken
Een boek wordt door mij aan de man geschonken.
The following three groups of verbs only take the auxiliary in the perfect tenses.
Impersonal verbs
Impersonal verbs have no true subject, but use a dummy subject pronoun ("it"). These verbs often refer to conditions, such as the weather:
("It rains." or "It is raining.")
("A thunderstorm is happening.")
Reflexive verbs
Reflexive verbs take a reflexive pronoun like , or as their (dummy) direct object and take in the perfect. This contrasts with e.g. French, where être (to be) is used as perfect auxiliary.
Ik vergiste me (I mistook, made an error)
Ik heb me vergist
Some of these occur in pairs with a transitive form, replacing the unaccusative component of an ergative.
Ratten verspreiden de ziekte – -(Rats spread the disease)
De ziekte verspreidt zich – (The disease is spreading)
There are no verbs that only occur in a reciprocal form, but those that can take the reciprocal pronoun (each other) also take in the perfect, thus behaving like reflexive ones.
Massa's trekken elkaar aan. – (Masses attract each other.)
De magneten hadden elkaar aangetrokken – (The magnets had attracted each other).
Absolute verbs
These verbs resemble the unergative ones, except that they do not possess an impersonal passive.
De zon schijnt – (The sun shines)
*Er wordt geschenen <- does not exist ->
Some of them may carry a direct object, but they have neither a personal, nor an impersonal passive:
Een jas aanhebben – (To wear a coat)
*Een jas wordt aangehad <- does not exist ->
Similarly the past participle cannot be used as adjective:
*De aangehadde jas <- does not exist ->
Future
Although the present tense can be used to indicate future events, there is also a more explicit future tense in Dutch. It is formed using the auxiliary ("will, shall, be going to"), which can be conjugated in both present and past tense. The "past future" carries a sense having pledged or promised to do something, or having been expected to do it, much as "was/were going to" does in English.
("I will do it tomorrow." or "I am going to do it tomorrow.")
("You were going to clean the windows yesterday!")
An alternative future tense is formed using ("to go") as the auxiliary. It is used in its literal meaning to indicate that one is moving to a place to perform an action, or is intending to do so ("be going to go"). More generally, it can indicate any kind of intention or plan to perform the action. It can also imply the start of an action in the future.
("I'm going to go shopping with my friends tomorrow.")
("For today the work is done; tomorrow they're going to continue working.")
("It's going to start raining hard in a moment.")
Conditional
The conditional mood is formed using the past tense of , which is in the singular and in the plural. It is therefore somewhat analogous to the use of would in English, as the past tense of the future auxiliary will. The conditional is identical in form to the "past future" described above, but is always accompanied by some kind of condition that the verb depends on, usually introduced with conjunctions like ("if").
("I would not do that if I were you.")
("He would not have cleaned the windows, if they were not dirty.")
Progressive
The progressive aspect indicates that an action is ongoing and in progress. It is formed using + + infinitive of action verb. It is equivalent to the English 'be ...-ing' or 'be in the middle of ...-ing', but is not used as often.
'You'll have to wait (a while), I am eating now.'
'He was cleaning the windows when the phone rang.'
Unlike in English, the progressive cannot be combined with the perfect to make a hypothetical "perfect progressive". Both "I have been eating" and "I had been eating" are expressed using the simple past tense form of the progressive:
A similar expression is + + infinitive of action verb or + action noun.
'He's (busy) repairing the clock'.
Or: 'Idem'.
'You're spending the whole day helping that child.' (notice the superfluous which is colloquial).
A different way to render progressive aspect is to use the (static) verbs 'to sit', 'to walk', 'to stand' and 'to lie' with + infinitive. These verbs, when in the perfect, all use a double infinitive.
– 'I'm sat down eating' (UK) or 'I'm sitting here eating' (North America).
– 'I'm stood (here) cleaning windows' (UK) or 'I'm standing here cleaning windows' (North America).
– 'Jantje is sleeping'.
The literal meaning of the verbs to sit or to stand etc. is often secondary to their durative aspect.
Numerals
Dutch uses a decimal numeral system. Numerals are not inflected.
0–9
The numbers from 0 to 9 are:
is the same word as the indefinite article in the written language. When confusion is possible, the number is often written as to distinguish it from the article. The pronunciation differentiates them in speech: the article is , the numeral is .
10–19
The numbers 10, 11 and 12 are irregular. 13 to 19 are formed by adding ("-teen") to the base number. Two are slightly irregular: 13 is with metathesis (compare English ), and 14 is .
20–99
The decades 20 to 90 are formed by adding ("-ty") to the base number. However, some are slightly irregular: 20 is , 30 and 40 are and (comparable to 13 and 14 above), 80 is . The remaining decades, although spelled beginning with and , are often pronounced beginning with voiceless and even in dialects that do not devoice these consonants normally.
Combinations of a decade and a unit are constructed in a regular way: the unit comes first, followed by ("and"), followed by the decade. No spaces are written between them, and a diaeresis is added when necessary. For example:
28 ("eight and twenty")
83 ("three and eighty")
99 ("nine and ninety")
Hundreds
100 is . Multiples of 100 are expressed by placing the multiple before , without any spaces: 200 , 300 and so on. Sometimes multiples higher than 10 can be used as synonyms for the thousands, such as 1100 , 2500 .
Combinations of a hundred and a lower number are expressed by just placing them together, with the hundred coming first. Sometimes, is added in between, but this is optional and not commonly done nowadays.
112 or
698
1258
Thousands
1000 is . Unlike in English, this is not preceded by an article. The same system used for naming the hundreds applies to the thousands as well, so multiples of 1000 are expressed by writing the multiple right before: 2000 , 3000 , 20000 , 999000 .
Combinations of a thousand and a lower number are expressed by placing them together, with the thousand coming first. A space is written between them.
1 258
9 001
32 348
123 456
Millions and above
Dutch always uses the long scale system.
1 000 000
1 000 000 000
1 000 000 000 000
1 000 000 000 000 000
etc.
Multiples of any of these are similar to the thousands, but a space is written between the multiple and the "million": 2 000 000 , 420 000 000 000 . If the multiple is 1, it must also be present, unlike with the thousands where it is left out: 1 000 000 .
Combinations with lower numbers are much the same as with the thousands.
117 401 067
10 987 654 321
Ordinal numbers
Ordinal numbers behave and inflect like superlative adjectives. Unlike normal adjectives, they always appear in the inflected form; always ending in ignoring whether the following noun is neuter or not, and are usually preceded by a definite article of some kind.
The ordinal adjectives are formed by adding either or to the base number. Which one is added depends on the word. The numbers 1 and 3 have irregular ordinals.
When a number is composed of multiple parts, the ending is added only to the last part of the word, and follows the rules for that word. Thus, 21st , 409th , 9001st .
Fractional numbers
Fractional numbers are expressed using a cardinal number for the numerator, and an ordinal for the denominator, like in English.
1/5
3/8
1/2 and 1/4 are ("a half") and ("a quarter") respectively, although the regular and are also possible, but rarer. In 3/4, the space is often left out: .
When combined with a full cardinal, the full cardinal comes first and they are separated by and spaces. The word can be left out if the numerator is not 1.
9 3/4
5 1/6
3 1/2
The combination 1 1/2 is usually expressed irregularly as , which literally means "other half" ( was originally a synonym of , and this combination meant "second, minus a half").
Iterative numbers
These express repetition, like "once" or "five times". They are formed with a cardinal number followed by or (both meaning "times").
("two times, twice")
("nine times")
("a hundred times")
The space is often left out for the combinations ("once"), ("twice") and ("thrice"), but not with .
There are also ordinal forms of these, which express an iteration within a sequence of repetitions. They are formed with an ordinal instead of a cardinal, and act as masculine nouns.
("the first time")
("the thirtieth time")
Multiplicative numbers
These express a multiple of something. They are formed with the suffix '-fold' and are neuter nouns.
'a twofold, multiple of two'
'a threefold, multiple of three'
'a hundredfold, multiple of hundred'
For the number 1, 'singular(ity), a onefold' is used, which is derived from 'single' rather than . The "regular" form instead means 'simpleness, uncomplicatedness, ease'.
Adjectives are formed by adding to this, giving the combination .
'double, twofold'
'triple, threefold'
'hundredfold'
Again, 'single, simple, onefold' is used for 1, and means 'simple, uncomplicated, easy'. Alternatively, the word 'single' can be used alone. A synonym for is .
Modal particles
