Yggdrasil
Yggdrasil eller Yggdrasel[2] (fornnordiska: Yggdrasill) är enligt Poetiska och Prosaiska Eddan namnet på världsträdet i den fornnordiska mytologin, en ofattbart stor ask som står i mitten av världen. Från grenarna som sträcker sig över hela världen och upp i himlen faller dagg över världen.
Trädet har tre huvudsakliga rötter vilka vardera leder till olika delar av världen: en till människornas och gudarnas hemvist, Midgård, en till jättarnas hemvist, Jotunheim, och en till Hels hemvist, dödsriket Nifelhem. Under var rot finns även en brunn belägen: Urds brunn, Mimers brunn och Vergelmer.[3] Den förstnämnde är asagudarnas heligaste tingsplats, där de dagligen samlas och diskuterar.
Trädet kallas även "Mimerträdet" (Mimameiðr), ”Mimers träd”, i jättevärlden beskrivet som en ek.[4] Det kan även vara besläktat med Lärad, ett annat mytologiskt träd, då ett barrträd.

Lincoln Motor Company simplified its lineup for , introducing a new V engine in place of the two previously available twelves. The new cubic-inch unit was essentially an enlarged version of the KA’s cubic-inch V At horsepower, the new V matched the output of the KB’s larger engine, while also being more economical for Lincoln to build and deliver superior torque, flexibility, and fuel economy. For the top-of-the-line Model KB alone, the catalogue consisted of 17 individual body styles. Outside coachbuilders like Brunn, Dietrich, LeBaron, and Willoughby contributed semi-custom designs, with the sportier open styles sold in minuscule numbers given their enormous cost. Only three Brunn Convertible Victorias built on the Model KB chassis are known to have survived, out of perhaps half a dozen originally made.
