Elm

Elms are deciduous and semi-deciduous trees comprising the genus Ulmus in the plant family Ulmaceae. The genus first appeared in the Miocene geological period about 20 million years ago, originating in what is now central Asia. These trees flourished and spread over most of the Northern Hemisphere, inhabiting the temperate and tropical-montane regions of North America and Eurasia, presently ranging southward across the Equator into Indonesia.

Elms are components of many kinds of natural forests. Moreover, during the 19th and early 20th centuries many species and cultivars were also planted as ornamental street, garden, and park trees in Europe, North America, and parts of the Southern Hemisphere, notably Australasia. Some individual elms reached great size and age. However, in recent decades, most mature elms of European or North American origin have died from Dutch elm disease, caused by a microfungus dispersed by bark beetles. In response, disease-resistant cultivars have been developed, capable of restoring the elm to forestry and landscaping.

Elms (Mechanic Falls, Maine)

The Elms (once the Eagle Hotel) is a historic building at the junction of Lewiston and Elm Streets in Mechanic Falls, Maine. Built as a hotel in 1859 and used for a variety of purposes since then, the substantial building is a fine late expression of Greek Revival architecture, and a reminder of the town's heyday as an industrial center. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.

Description

The Elms is a large rectangular wood frame structure, situated on 0.5 acres (0.20 ha) of land at the junction of Lewiston and Elm Streets (Maine State Route 11 along both roads, and Maine State Route 121 on Lewiston Street) in Mechanic Falls, Maine, a short way east from the Little Androscoggin River. It is 2-1/2 stories high, with a gable roof. The main facade, facing Elm Street to the southwest, is five bays wide, with a temple-front appearance. The porch is a full two stories in height, with four fluted square posts topped by capitals, and a fully pedimented gable above. The porch balustrade, composed of urn-like balusters, extends fully across the second floor, and is open between the center columns on the first floor.

2013 European Le Mans Series season

The 2013 European Le Mans Series season was the tenth season of the Automobile Club de l'Ouest's European Le Mans Series endurance auto racing series. It is the first season of the European Le Mans Series under the control of the ACO's Le Mans Endurance Management, replacing former organisers Peter Auto. Championships are open to four categories, two of which are for Le Mans Prototypes while the other two are grand tourers. The season contested over five races starting at the Silverstone Circuit, United Kingdom on 13 April and ended at Circuit Paul Ricard, France on 28 September.

Schedule

During the 2012 season several planned races were cancelled due to low interest from teams, leading the series to adopt several changes for the 2013 calendar. All race weekends have been shortened to two days, with practice and qualifying on Friday and the race on Saturday. Races have also been shortened from six hours to three. The European Le Mans Series will also share its weekends with several other international racing series, including the FIA World Endurance Championship, World Series by Renault, and FFSA GT Tour.

Speaking In Tongues

by: Elms

Got the kind of face everybody knows
Run around barefoot when it snows
Growin' out your hair 'cause you like it long
Fighting in the road 'cause you know it's wrong
People got a thing for the dangerous
You'll find it inside the best of us
Taking what they want like it's owed to them
Some of us do the best we can, some of us do the best we can
Brothers, Brothers
Everybody's speaking in tongues, we gotta speak in love
Brothers, Brothers
Everybody's speaking in tongues, we gotta speak in love
Never met a man, said he did not try
Running from the truth time again in life
You can be the poor one, rich or wise
Everybody knows 'bout sacrifice
So put me in the water, put me in the fire
Put me in the world and I'll walk that wire
Seen the people come and I've seen them go
Talk all day but it's what they show, talk all day but it's what you show
Brothers, Brothers
Everybody's speaking in tongues, we gotta speak in love
Brothers, Brothers
Everybody's speaking in tongues, we gotta speak in love
People got a thing for the dangerous
You'll find it inside the best of us
Taking what they want like it's owed to them
Some of us do the best we can
Put me in the water, put me in the fire
Put me in the world and I'll walk that wire
Seen the people come and I've seen them go
Talk all day but it's what they show
Brothers, Brothers
Everybody's speaking in tongues, we gotta speak in love
Brothers, Brothers
