John Stewart Plant BSc PhD MBCS MInstP CITP has worked in University Computing Departments since 1976 and, before that, in University Physics Departments and nuclear Research Institutes in England, Australia and France. He has published variously in the academic literature since 1968, mainly in scientific journals, such as on the atomic structure and quantum chemistry of vitamin B6. A recent article about the Plant name is in the journal Nomina (ISSN 0141-6340) of the Society for Name Studies in Britain and Ireland (S.N.S.B.I.):-
This had led on to a reassessment of the origins of the Plantagenet name, as described in:-
PhD thesis on neutron diffraction accepted and published in 1970. Studies of the atomic structure and quantum chemistry of Vitamin B6 published in: Acta Crystallography B, 1980; International Journal of Quantum Chemistry, 1986 and 1989. Neutron Scattering Amplitude determination published in: Zeit.Kryst., 1968. Studies of magnons in yttrium iron garnet published in: Journal of Physics C, 1977 and 1983. Methodologies for determining chemical ordering, form-factors and detailed magnetic structures by neutron diffraction and neutron polarisation analysis published in: Journal of Physics F, 1971, 1973, 1979, 1981 and 1982; Crystallography Reviews, 1991.
Member of British Computing Society (1983); Affiliate then Member of the Institute of Physics, U.K. (1986); Chartered IT Professional (2005).

The Akademie MIDI derives from a foundation in Paris in 1907 to promote cultural understanding between nations. It has over 500 members from around the world. Prominent members have included Albert Einstein, the American Presidents Franklin D Roosevelt and John F Kennedy, the French President Pompidou, the artist Kathe Kollwitz, Cardinal Roncali (later Pope John XXIII), Albert Schweitzer ... and many Nobel Prize winners ..... |
Its current priorities include:

The Lofsensic Ursinius Order has supposed origins from Duke Ursinius von Loev, nominated Governor of Cleve in 653AD, and it is politically, ideologically, religiously and racially neutral. Its Knights and Dames, such as the British Prince Charles, are expected to respect the UN charter on human rights, help the weak and protect nature (the Umwelt). |
