    ἕτερος, α, ον (Hom.+; in the NT it is entirely lacking in 1 and 2 Pt; 1, 2, and 3J; Rv; found in Mk only in the bracketed ending 16:12; in J only 19:37) as adj. and subst., gener. ‘other’
    ① pert. to being distinct from some other item implied or mentioned, other
    ⓐ other of two, contrasting a definite person or thing w. another (Appian, Hann. 43 §185 Ἄννων ἕτερος=the other of the two Hannos; of an eye ApcEsdr 4:29; Ath. 17, 4; cp. θάτερος Just., D. 1, 2 al.; Tat. 8, 1 al.) ἐν τῷ ἑτέρῳ πλοίῳ in the other boat Lk 5:7; cp. 23:40. ὁ ἕ. in contrast to ὁ πρῶτος (X., An. 3, 4, 25) Mt 21:30; ὁ εἷς … ὁ ἕ. (s. εἷς 5d) 6:24; Lk 7:41; 16:13; 17:34 f; 18:10; Ac 23:6; 1 Cor 4:6. ἕ. βασιλεύς another king (of two mentioned) Lk 14:31. The usage Hv 3, 8, 4 is colloq., for seven women are referred to; the narrator describes the first two, but anticipates Hermas’ interrupting inquiry about the identity of the other five and therefore treats the first two as a complete series.—1 Cl 38:2.
    ⓑ of more than two
    α. another ἕ. τῶν μαθητῶν Mt 8:21; cp. Gal 1:19. ἕ. προσδοκῶμεν; are we to look for someone else? Mt 11:3; Lk 7:19 v.l. ἐν ἑ. σαββάτῳ Lk 6:6. ἑτέρα γραφή another Scripture passage J 19:37; 2 Cl 2:4; cp. Lk 9:56, 59, 61; 16:18 (cp.

Cicero, Tusc. 4, 7, 16); 1 Ti 1:10; ἤ τις ἕ. Papias (2:4) (cp. οὐδεὶς ἕ. En 24:4; Just., D. 49, 3).
    β. likew. in the pl. ἕτεροι other(s) Ac 2:13 (ἕτεροι δέ joins the opinion of other people to an opinion previously expressed, as schol. on Pind., P. 9, 183), 40; Lk 10:1. ἕτεραι γενεαί other generations (cp.

    γ. used interchangeably w. ἄλλος, which is felt to be its equivalent (Ps.-Pla., Alcib. I 116e; Apollon. Rhod. 4, 141; Dio Chrys. 57 [74], 22; Arrian, Anab. 5, 21, 2; 3; Herm.

    ऋषिः [cf. Uṇ.4.119]
    1 An inspired poet or sage, a singer of sacred hymns, (e. g कुत्स, वसिष्ठ, अत्रि, अगस्त्य &c.). (These Ṛiṣis form a class of beings distinct from gods, men, Asuras &c. (Av.1.1.26). They are the authors or seers of the Vedic hymns; ऋषयो मन्त्रद्रष्टारो वसिष्ठादयः; or, according to Yāska, यस्य वाक्यं स ऋषिः, i. e. they are the persons to whom the Vedic hymns were revealed. In every Sūkta the ऋषि is mentioned along with the देवता, छन्दस् and विनियोग. The later works mention seven Ṛiṣis or saptarṣis whose names, according to Śat. Br., are गौतम, भरद्वाज, विश्वामित्र, जमदग्नि, वसिष्ठ, कश्यप and अत्रि; according to Mahābhārata, मरीचि, अत्रि, अङ्गिरस्, पुलह, क्रतु, पुलस्त्य and वसिष्ठ; Manu calls these sages Prajāpatis or pro- genitors of mankind, and gives ten names, three more being added to the latter list, i. e. दक्ष or प्रचेतस्, भृगु and नारद. In astronomy the seven Ṛiṣis form the constellation of "the Great Bear"); यत्रा सप्त ऋषीन् पर एकमाहुः Rv.1.82.2.
    -2 A sanctified sage, saint, an ascetic, anchorite; (there are usually three classes of these saints; देवर्षि, ब्रह्मर्षि and राजर्षि; sometimes four more are added; महर्षि, परमर्षि, श्रुतर्षि and काण्डर्षि.
    -3 A ray of light.
    -4 An imaginary circle.

    1) ( становиться сумасшедшим) go (be) out of one's mind (head); go mad (crazy, insane); lose one's mind; go off one's head (loaf, nut)

    - Я не совсем с вами согласен, что ваш папаша с ума сошёл, - спокойно ответил он, - мне кажется, напротив, что ему ума даже прибыло в последнее время, ей богу. (Ф. Достоевский, Идиот) — 'I don't quite agree that your father's out of his mind,' he replied calmly. 'On the contrary, it seems to me that he has become more sensible of late; I assure you.'

    - Чем дальше - тем горячее в туннеле, тем больше хворало и падало в землю людей. И всё сильнее текли горячие ключи, осыпалась порода, а двое наших, из Лугано, сошли с ума. (М. Горький, Сказки об Италии) — 'The farther we advanced, the hotter it grew, and more and more of us took ill and died. The hot springs gushed in ever more powerful streams, chunks of earth tore loose, and two of our men from Lugano went insane.'

    Географ сошёл с ума совершенно неожиданно: однажды он взглянул на карту обоих полушарий и не нашёл на ней Берингова пролива. (И. Ильф, Е. Петров, Золотой телёнок) — The geographer had lost his mind quite unexpectedly. Glancing at the map of both hemispheres one day, he could not find Behring Strait.

  • 97 Champion, William

    SUBJECT AREA: Metallurgy
    [br]
    b. 1710 Bristol, England
    d. 1789 England
    [br]
    English metallurgist, the first to produce metallic zinc in England on an industrial scale.
    [br]
    William, the youngest of the three sons of Nehemiah Champion, stemmed from a West Country Quaker family long associated with the metal trades. His grandfather, also called Nehemiah, had been one of Abraham Darby's close Quaker friends when the brassworks at Baptist Mills was being established in 1702 and 1703. Nehemiah II took over the management of these works soon after Darby went to Coalbrookdale, and in 1719, as one of a group of Bristol copper smelters, he negotiated an agreement with Lord Falmouth to develop copper mines in the Redruth area in Cornwall. In 1723 he was granted a patent for a cementation brass-making process using finely granulated copper rather than the broken fragments of massive copper hitherto employed.
    In 1730 he returned to Bristol after a tour of European metallurgical centres, and he began to develop an industrial process for the manufacture of pure zinc ingots in England. Metallic zinc or spelter was then imported at great expense from the Far East, largely for the manufacture of copper alloys of golden colour used for cheap jewellery. The process William developed, after six years of experimentation, reduced zinc oxide with charcoal at temperatures well above the boiling point of zinc. The zinc vapour obtained was condensed rapidly to prevent reoxidation and finally collected under water. This process, patented in 1738, was operated in secret until 1766 when Watson described it in his Chemical Essays. After encountering much opposition from the Bristol merchants and zinc importers, William decided to establish his own integrated brassworks at Warmley, five meals east of Bristol. The Warmley plant began to produce in 1748 and expanded rapidly. By 1767, when Warmley employed about 2,000 men, women and children, more capital was needed, requiring a Royal Charter of Incorporation. A consortium of Champion's competitors opposed this and secured its refusal. After this defeat William lost the confidence of his fellow directors, who dismissed him. He was declared bankrupt in 1769 and his works were sold to the British Brass Company, which never operated Warmley at full capacity, although it produced zinc on that site until 1784.
