Early day motion 1157
That this House expresses sympathy with the military widows and widowers forced to surrender their 1975 Armed Forces Pension Scheme entitlement when deciding to marry or cohabit with a new partner; acknowledges the enormous sacrifices made by military spouses on behalf of the UK, often raising a family single-handedly while a loved one serves overseas; believes it is cruel and unfair to make those who become widows and widowers to make a choice between having a new relationship and financial security;

The Treaty of Sahagún ended a state of war between the Castile and León, establishing pacem et ueram amiciciam (peace and true friendship) between their respective monarchs, Sancho III and Ferdinand II, who called themselves boni fratres et boni amici (good brothers and good friends). It was signed at the monastery of Sahagún on 23 May 1158.

On the death of Alfonso VII (21 August 1157) his realms were partitioned between his two sons: Castile, with Toledo to the eldest, and León, with Galicia, to the younger one. According to Rodrigo Jiménez de Rada, this division was instigated by the factitious Manrique Pérez de Lara of Castile and Fernando Pérez de Traba of León, who, the historian says, "aimed to sow the seed of discord thereby." According to Rodrigo, Ferdinand II, in response to calumnious accusations at court, confiscated the fiefs of some of his leading magnates, who then went into exile at the court of Sancho III, seeking redress. The Castilian king marched on army on León, but Ferdinand arranged to meet him at Sahagún and a peace was negotiated. The documentary sources do not provide a clear chronology of the exile of any magnates, although it is known to have occurred. Later sources connected these events with the (probably legendary) Mutiny of the Trout.

The Treaty of Sahagún put an end to the quarrel. It stipulated that Sancho should return the seized lands to his brother, but also that they should be held in fidelitate (in fealty) from Ferdinand by three counts: Ponce Giraldo de Cabrera, Osorio Martínez, and Ponce de Minerva. If either party ignored his treaty obligations the lands reverted to the other after a year, save those bestowed on Osorio, who secured hereditary rights. The other counts could only be succeeded, in the event of death, by their sons or by certain other noblemen stipulated by the treaty.

They must have been a right couple of Ponces <laugh>

From Solaronix, the Meltonix 1162-60 is a 60 microns thick thermoplast hot-melt sealing foil. Sealing occurs when heated to about 130 °C for a few seconds, e.g. using a vacuum laminator, a hot-press or a soldering iron for small surfaces. Typically, gaskets or strips are cut-out and arranged onto the electrode substrate prior hot lamination.

Meltonix 1162-60 can be ordered with a protective foil on one side under the designation Meltonix 1162-60PF.

The IEEE 1164 standard defines a package design unit that contains declarations that support a uniform representation of a logic value in a VHDL hardware description. It was sponsored by the Design Automation Standards Committee of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). The standardization effort was based on the donation of the Synopsys MVL-9 type declaration.
The primary data type std_ulogic (standard unresolved logic) consists of nine character literals in the following order:[1]
 
Early in 1166, orders went out to the king's tenants in chief --
to every one of them, so far as it was known who they were . They
were each to produce a list of the tenants who held from them by
knight's service, reporting each tenant's name, and the number of
fees for which he was answerable. They were to distinguish
clearly between fees of "old feoffment" and fees of "new
feoffment" -- that is, between fees which had already existed on
the day when the first king Henric was alive and dead (1 Dec
1135), and fees which had been created since that time.

The Murder of Thomas Becket, 1170

A sword's crushing blow extinguished the life of Thomas Becket, Archbishop of Canterbury, on a cold December evening as he struggled on the steps of his altar. The brutal event sent a tremor through Medieval Europe. Public opinion of the time and subsequent history have laid the blame for the murder at the feet of Becket's former close personal friend, King Henry II.

Becket was born in 1118, in Normandy the son of an English merchant. His family was well off, his father a former Sheriff of London. Becket benefited from his family's status first by being sent to Paris for his education and from there to England where he joined the household of Theobold, the then Archbishop of Canterbury. Becket's administrative skills, his charm, intelligence and diplomacy propelled him forward. The archbishop sent him to Paris to study law and upon his return to England made him Archdeacon of Canterbury.
 
In 1171 the Jews of Blois, France, were accused of having crucified a Christian child during the Passover holydays and of having thrown the corpse into the Loire. This is the first time that the accusation of ritual murder was made in continental Europe. It is difficult to account for its occurrence just at this time unless it is a reverberation of the William of Norwich tale of a generation before. The accusation that Jews require Christian blood for their Passover ritual has been made against the Jews from that time on down to the present day in practically all lands and has cost the lives of hundreds of innocent Jewish men, women, and children.

Good Evening Woopert - bit late been for a swim realised how unfit I am - still its all about having a go - hazy day tops of 27

World's first 11 Megapixel micro-CT

The flexible geometry of the SKYSCAN 1172 scanner is particularly advantageous over intermediate resolution levels. Scans are several times faster compared to micro-CT systems with a fixed source-detector design.

Good Evening anti, how is it down under ? Today here started with an absolute "pea souper" of a fog, which took half a day to clear. Due rain tomorrow !
 
The Revolt of 1173&#8211;74 was a rebellion against Henry II of England by three of his sons, his wife Eleanor of Aquitaine and rebel supporters. It lasted 18 months and ended in the revolt's failure: Henry's rebellious family members had to resign themselves to his continuing rule and were reconciled to him.

Evening Woopert - how strange hardly ever get fog here but this morning a sea mist has rolled in - hard enough finding a golf ball when clear today could be a challenge
