Lewis Evans (collector)
Lewis Evans (1853–1930) was an English businessman and scientific instrument collector.
He was the son of Sir John Evans, an archaeologist, and younger brother of the more famous archaeologist Sir Arthur Evans (1851–1941) who excavated Knossos in Crete. He studied chemistry at University College London and became a businessman. During his career, he rose to Chairman of the family paper-making firm John Dickinson & Co. Ltd and lived at Russels, a country house near the company's paper mill, close to Watford.
Over the course of about fifty years, Evans also built up an important collection of scientific instruments. In 1924, he presented this collection of sundials, astrolabes, early mathematical instruments and associated library of early books to Oxford University. The Lewis Evans Collection was made accessible to the public in the same year and he was awarded an honorary Doctor of Science degree by the University in 1925.
Through the efforts of his friend Robert Gunther, Evans donation helped in the founding of the Museum of the History of Science, Oxford in 1930 by providing what became known as the Lewis Evans Collection of Historic Scientific Instruments, the core of the museum's initial collection. His library is also owned by the museum.
Lewis Evans (controversialist)
Lewis Evans (fl. 1574), was a Welsh controversialist.
Life and career
Evans, a native of Monmouthshire, was educated at Oxford, apparently at Christ Church, where he proceeded B.A. 1554, M.A. 1557, and B.D. 1562. He afterwards removed to London, where his zeal in the Roman Catholic cause brought him into trouble with Bishop Grindal, and he was forced to fly the country. He settled at Antwerp, and occupied himself in translating the ‘Tabulæ vigentium … hæreseon’ of Willem van der Lindt, Bishop of Roermond, into English. This he published at Antwerp in 1565, with the title ‘The Betraying of the Beastliness of the Heretics,’ 12mo, and a defiant address to Grindal.
List of recurring The Simpsons characters
The Simpsons includes a large array of supporting characters: co-workers, teachers, family friends, extended relatives, townspeople, local celebrities, fictional characters within the show, and even animals. The writers originally intended many of these characters as one-time jokes or for fulfilling needed functions in the town. A number of them have gained expanded roles and have subsequently starred in their own episodes. According to the creator of The Simpsons, Matt Groening, the show adopted the concept of a large supporting cast from the Canadian sketch comedy show Second City Television.
Agnes Skinner
Agnes Skinner (voiced by Tress MacNeille) is the mother of Principal Skinner and first appeared in the first season episode "The Crepes of Wrath" as an old woman who embarrassingly calls her son "Spanky". However, as episodes progressed, the character turned bitter. She is very controlling of her son and often treats him as if he is a child. She hates Edna Krabappel due to her son's feelings for the other woman. Agnes has married four times. Several Springfield residents (including the Simpsons) are afraid of her. When "the real Seymour Skinner" arrives in Springfield, Agnes ends up rejecting him in part because he stands up to her, but also because unlike Skinner/Tamzarian, her biological son is independent and doesn't need her anymore, while Skinner immediately reverts to a good-for-nothing without her.
Lewis (lifting appliance)
A lewis (sometimes called a lewisson) is one of a category of lifting devices used by stonemasons to lift large stones into place with a crane, chain block, or winch. It is inserted into a specially prepared hole, or seating, in the top of a stone, directly above its centre of mass. It works by applying principles of the lever and utilises the weight of the stone to act on the long lever-arms which in turn results in a very high reaction force and friction where the short lever-arms make contact with the stone inside the hole and thereby prevents slipping.
Etymology
The name lewis may come from the Latin levo -avi, -atum meaning to levitate or lift, but the Oxford English Dictionary Online states, "the formation and the phonology are not easily explained on this hypothesis", preferring "origin obscure", and speculating that the term may derive from a personal name. The Romans used the lewis. The specially shaped hole that is shaped to fit the device is known as a lewis hole. Lewis holes in the uppermost masonry coursings are neatly repaired with matching indented plugs after the stone has been set in place.
Lewis (Middlesex cricketer)
Lewis (first name and dates unknown) was an English cricketer who was associated with Middlesex and made his first-class debut in 1830.

Tell Her Tonight
by: Luis FonsiBetter get dressed
There's no time to waste gotta pick her up by eight
I'm a little bit nervous what I feel inside is something that can't wait
Don't hesitate don't leave her alone in the dark
I wanna feel the beat of your heart
Tell her she is your girl
The only one for you in this whole world
Kiss her and whisper the moment is right
You're gonna love her for the rest of your life
Tell her tonight?
Tell her tonight?
There she is giving me that smile
The one that drives me wild
Oh, she touches my hand
I have to tell her now
No matter how the words come out
So take your time, (so take? your time?)
Don't hesitate once your start
And you feel the heat of your heart
Tell her she is your girl
The only one for you in this whole world
Kiss her and whisper the moment is right
You're gonna love her for the rest of your life
Tell her tonight?
Tell her tonight?
'Cause there's a reason why the moon has gathered
Every star up in the sky tonight is more than perfect to let her know?
Tell her she is your girl
The only one for you in this whole world
Kiss her and whisper the moment is right
You're gonna love her for the rest of your life
Tell her tonight?
Tell her tonight?
Tell her she is your girl
The only one for you in this whole world
Kiss her and whisper the moment is right
You're gonna love her for the rest of your life
Tell her tonight?
Tell her tonight?
Tell her she is your girl the only one for you in this whole world
I'm gonna love you for the rest of my life
