Common name
In biology, a common name of a taxon or organism (also known as a vernacular name, English name, colloquial name, trivial name, trivial epithet, country name, popular name, or farmer's name) is a name that is based on the normal language of everyday life; this kind of name is often contrasted with the scientific name for the same organism, which is Latinized. A so-called "common name" is sometimes frequently used, but that is by no means always the case.
Sometimes common names are created by authorities on one particular subject, in an attempt to make it possible for members of the general public (including such interested parties as fishermen, farmers, etc.) to be able to refer to one particular species of organism without needing to be able to memorise or pronounce the Latinized scientific name. Creating an "official" list of common names can also be an attempt to standardize the use of common names, which can sometimes vary a great deal between one part of a country and another, as well as between one country and another country, even where the same language is spoken in both places.
Ibex (band)
Ibex was a short-lived Liverpool-based rock band in 1969. It is primarily known for having Freddie Mercury (then known as Freddie Bulsara), later of Queen fame, as a member. The other members of the band were Mike Bersin on guitar, Mick Smith on drums and John 'Tupp' Taylor (later Jim Capaldi's manager) on bass guitar. In October 1969, the band changed its name to Wreckage but broke up in November 1969.
On 9 September 1969, the band performed a concert at The Sink in Liverpool, which included an encore with future Queen members Brian May and Roger Taylor. This was their first ever performance together.
After Ibex, Mercury performed in Sour Milk Sea, before joining Smile with Taylor and May after bassist and singer Tim Staffell left Smile.
A Wreckage demo called "Green" and Ibex's live cover of The Beatles' "Rain" would later appear on Mercury's posthumous solo box set in 2000. Live recordings exist of "Crossroads", "Communication Breakdown", "Jailhouse Rock", and "We're Going Wrong", but they have never been officially released.
Ibex (vehicle)
An Ibex is a specialist off-road vehicle, ready-built or supplied as a kit to build with donor parts from a Land Rover Defender on a monocoque chassis. The Ibex can be delivered with different wheel bases and body type.
Among other features, the Ibex can be built or delivered with Foer's patented Vector winching system. A winch is mounted centrally in the vehicle, and the cable runs to fairleads front and rear. This allows the vehicle to pull in either direction, or pull out the cable and secure it both ways, so that the vehicle can pull along the cable like a cable car.
There has been four generations of ibex from the mk1 in 1988 to the current "IBEX F8"
Ibex are manufactured in the Hexham, Northumberland, United Kingdom by Foers Engineering Ltd.
