Alberta Environment
Figure Eight Lake Provincial Recreation Area is located 40 kilometers northwest of Peace River on Highway 737 (off Highway 35) in the County of Northern Lights. Figure Eight Lake takes its name from the shape it had before 1970 when the water level was low; in these earlier days the lake had two basins and resembled a figure eight. It drains through a weir south to Lac Cardinal that was raised in order to create the lake. The control structure and recreational facilities at the lake are now operated and maintained by Alberta Environment.The lake is stocked annually with rainbow trout. Because of the lake's small size, gas-powered motors are not allowed on the lake.The first roads into the region were opened in 1926.

Figure humaine (Human Figure), FP 120, by Francis Poulenc is a cantata for double mixed choir of 12 voices composed in 1943 on texts by Paul Éluard including "'Liberté". Written during the Nazi occupation of France, it was premiered in London in English by the BBC in 1945. It was first performed in French in 1946 in Brussels, then in Paris on 22 May 1947. The work was published by Éditions Salabert.

FP 120

The expression figure of the Earth has various meanings in geodesy according to the way it is used and the precision with which the Earth's size and shape is to be defined. While the sphere is a close approximation of the true figure of the Earth and satisfactory for many purposes, geodesists have developed several models that more closely approximate the shape of the Earth so that coordinate systems can serve the precise needs of navigation, surveying, cadastre, land use, and various other concerns.
