David Allen, Dave Allen, David Allan, or Dave Allan may refer to:
David Allen Sibley (born 1962, in Plattsburgh, New York) is an American ornithologist. He is the author and illustrator of The Sibley Guide to Birds, considered by many to be the most comprehensive guide for North American field identification.
The son of Yale University ornithologist Fred Sibley, David Sibley began birding in childhood. A largely self-taught bird illustrator, he was inspired to pursue creating his own illustrated field guide after leading tours in the 1980s and 1990s and finding that existing field guides did not generally illustrate or describe alternate or juvenile plumages of birds. He cites European wildlife artist Lars Jonsson as a great influence on his own work. In 2002, he received the Roger Tory Peterson Award from the American Birding Association for lifetime achievement in promoting the cause of birding. In 2006, he was awarded the Linnaean Society of New York's Eisenmann Medal.
Sibley is married, with two sons, and currently lives in Concord, Massachusetts. He is not known to be related to ornithologist Charles Sibley, although his father studied under and worked for Charles at Yale. Charles did some genealogical research but found they could be no closer than fourth cousins.

David (/ˈdeɪvɪd/; Hebrew: דָּוִד, Modern David, Tiberian Dāwîḏ;ISO 259-3 Dawid; Arabic: داوُد Dāwūd; Syriac: ܕܘܝܕ Dawid; Ancient Greek: Δαυίδ; Latin: Davidus, David; Strong's: Daveed) was, according to the Books of Samuel, the second king of the United Kingdom of Israel, and according to the New Testament, an ancestor of Jesus. His life is conventionally dated to c. 1040 – 970 BCE, his reign over Judah c. 1010–970 BCE.
The Books of Samuel, 1 Kings, and 1 Chronicles are the only Old Testament sources of information on David, although the Tel Dan Stele (dated c. 850–835 BCE) contains the phrase בית דוד (bytdwd), read as "House of David", which many scholars confirm to be a likely plausible match to the existence in the mid-9th century BCE of a Judean royal dynasty called the House of David.
Depicted as a valorous warrior of great renown, and a poet and musician credited for composing much of the psalms contained in the Book of Psalms, King David is widely viewed as a righteous and effective king in battle and civil justice. He is described as a man after God's own heart in 1 Samuel 13:14 and Acts 13:22.

Let’s face it, birders are the nicest people around. David Sibley’s visit started with two early morning bird walks around Land’s End. Sightings included some gorgeous Yellow-throated Warblers just returning to the area, Allen’s hummingbirds, Black Oystercatchers, and Red Tail Hawks. In the evening, we welcomed David to Kanbar Hall for his talk on his newly revised Guide to Birds, how he got into bird watching, how he captures a bird’s essence in his drawings, and many amusing anecdotes of the life and times of the bird world’s biggest, yet surely, nicest superstar.

The sage grouse, the largest grouse in North America, is utterly dependent on the vast landscapes of healthy sagebrush found throughout the American west. This bird, once numbering in the tens of millions, is emblematic of such arid landscapes. Today agriculture and energy development have reduced populations to about 200,000, prompting the US Department of the Interior to formally acknowledge this year that the bird deserves Endangered Species status. This protection has been deferred, however, until federal funding is available and other more threatened species are dealt with. Meanwhile, oil and gas development continues, unabated, across the American west.

Documental sobre el Royal Ballet que data de 1963. Incluye selecciones de los ballets, "La Valse", "Las Sílfides", "El Corsario" y "La Bella Durmiente". Su merito es mas como documento histórico valioso, que como producción audiovisual ya que deja mucho de desear. Grandes nombres en el mundo del ballet, Margot Fonteyn, Rudolf Nureyev y el Royal Ballet, agregue un poco de coreografía,la música, unas cámaras en frente de ellos en dos o tres días de rodaje, y tiene usted una pelicula bastante mediocre como tal, pero que muestra el inmenso arte de esos artistas. En consecuencia un aprobado por "los pelos" para el realizador y productor y un sobresaliente para la pareja mas famosa de todos los tiempos en la danza clásica. Cast by Margot Fonteyn Rudolf Nureyev David Blair Antoinette Sibley ...
Mary was a queen driven by faith, she would send hundreds of her subjects to burn at the stake. Written and presented by Dr David Starkey, this is the compelling story of two of England's most striking monarchs: a brother and sister, tied by blood and affection, and torn apart by religion, power, and some of the bloodiest episodes in English history. Mary (who was to become England's first reigning Queen since Matilda but who is best known to generations of British schoolchildren as Bloody Mary) was the first born child of Henry VIII. For 20 years she was heir to her adored father. Then came the birth of her little half-brother Edward, and Mary found herself cast into the shadows, ignored by her father and declared illegitimate by Act of Parliament. Nonetheless she became very attached to...
This is my personal favorite version. Tempi are absolutely correct and everyone dances up a storm. Turn-out, extensions, and "tricks" may be better today, but at the sacrifice of style, musicality, and charm. Margot Fonteyn was in her mid-forties here but still takes chances and dances faster than most all of today's ballerinas. David Blair is the "Prince" (and the only one not quite up to today's standards but a great partner) Antoinette Sibley and Brian Shaw are excellent as "Princess Florine and the "Bluebird" and the "Pas de Trois" is Merle Park, Georgina Parkinson, and Graham Usher...an all-star cast.
Sanford V. Levinson, a chaired professor at the University of Texas School of Law, delivered the 99th Sibley Lecture Monday, March 28, 2005 at 3:30 p.m. in the Hatton Lovejoy Courtroom at the University of Georgia School of Law. The U.S. Constitution, drafted by our nation’s founding fathers well over 200 years ago, remains as the primary document guiding our nation’s system of democracy. However, in times of national emergencies, absolute adherence is sometimes set aside to meet immediate needs. The events of September 11 provide the most recent example of this conflict between strict constitutional fidelity and presidential emergency powers. Introduction by Professor Kevin Heller.
"Noah's Curse and Paul's Admonition: Civil Rights, Religious Liberty, Gay Equality" is the title of the University of Georgia School of Law’s 106th Sibley Lecture delivered by Yale Law School Garver Professor of Jurisprudence William Eskridge Jr. His presentation took place on March 18 at 3:30 p.m.
This talk will focus on the need for, process of, and impact of developing custom software and data systems for scientists. My aim is to give you a glimpse into the rewarding world of software in science by drawing from concrete examples in own my experience of building systems using Perl, Python, JavaScript, Elm, and many other languages. For over three years now I've been the staff programmer in a biology research lab at the University of Washington, and I'll share what I've learned along the way after making the jump from commercial software development. Interested in learning more about software in science? This talk is for you! Do startups excite you? A science research lab has more in common with a startup than you might think!
