**Submillimeter Wave Astronomy Satellite** (**SWAS**, also **Explorer 74** and **SMEX-3**) is a NASA submillimetre astronomy satellite, and is the fourth spacecraft in the Small Explorer program (SMEX). It was launched on 6 December 1998, at 00:57:54 UTC, from Vandenberg Air Force Base aboard a Pegasus XL launch vehicle. The telescope was designed by the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory (SAO) and integrated by Ball Aerospace, while the spacecraft was built by NASA\'s Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC). The mission\'s principal investigator is Gary J. Melnick.
## History
The Submillimeter Wave Astronomy Satellite mission was approved on 1 April 1989. The project began with the Mission Definition Phase, officially starting on 29 September 1989, and running through 31 January 1992. During this time, the mission underwent a conceptual design review on 8 June 1990, and a demonstration of the Schottky receivers and acousto-optical spectrometer concept was performed on 8 November 1991.
## Development
The mission\'s Development Phase ran from February 1992, through May 1996. The Submillimeter Wave Telescope underwent a preliminary design review on 13 May 1992, and a critical design review (CDR) on 23 February 1993. Ball Aerospace was responsible for the construction of and integration of components into the telescope. The University of Cologne delivered the acousto-optical spectrometer to Ball for integration into the telescope on 2 December 1993, while Millitech Corporation delivered the Schottky receivers to Ball on 20 June 1994. Ball delivered the finished telescope to Goddard Space Flight Center on 20 December 1994. GSFC, which was responsible for construction of the spacecraft bus, conducted integration of spacecraft and instruments from January through March 1995. Spacecraft qualification and testing took place between 1 April 1995, and 15 December 1995. After this, SWAS was placed into storage until 1 September 1998, when launch preparation was begun.

# Submillimeter Wave Astronomy Satellite
## Mission
SWAS was designed to study the chemical composition, energy balance and structure of interstellar clouds, both galactic and extragalactic, and investigate the processes of stellar and planetary formation. Its sole instrument is a telescope operating in the submillimeter wavelengths of far infrared and microwave radiation. The telescope is composed of three main components: a 55 xx elliptical off-axis Cassegrain reflector with a beam width of 4 arcminutes at operating frequencies, two Schottky diode receivers, and an acousto-optical spectrometer. The system is sensitive to frequencies between 487--557 GHz (538--616 μm), which allows it to focus on the spectral lines of molecular oxygen (O~2~) at 487.249 GHz; neutral carbon (`{{Smallcaps|C i}}`{=mediawiki}) at 492.161 GHz; isotopic water (H~2~^18^O) at 548.676 GHz; isotopic carbon monoxide (^13^CO) at 550.927 GHz; and water (H~2~O) at 556.936 GHz. Detailed 1° x 1° maps of giant molecular and dark cloud cores are generated from a grid of measurements taken at 3.7 arcminutes spacings. SWAS\'s submillimeter radiometers are a pair of passively cooled subharmonic Schottky diode receivers, with receiver noise figures of 2500-3000 K. An acousto-optical spectrometer (AOS) was provided by the University of Cologne, in Germany. Outputs of the two SWAS receivers are combined to form a final intermediate frequency, which extends from 1.4 to 2.8 GHz and is dispersed into 1400 1-MHz channels by the AOS. SWAS is designed to make pointed observations stabilized on three axes, with a position accuracy of about 38 arcseconds, and jitter of about 24 arcseconds. Attitude information is obtained from gyroscopes whose drift is corrected via a star tracker. Momentum wheels are used to maneuver the spacecraft.

## Experiment
### Submillimeter Wave Telescope {#submillimeter_wave_telescope}
thumb\|upright=1.0\|right\|SWAS observes of sources throughout the galaxy.
The SWAS instrument is a submillimeter-wave telescope that incorporates dual heterodyne radiometers and an acousto-optical spectrometer. SWAS will measure water, molecular oxygen, atomic carbon, and isotopic carbon monoxide spectral line emissions from galactic interstellar clouds in the wavelength range 540-616 micrometres. Such submillimetre wave radiation cannot be detected from the ground because of atmospheric attenuation. The SWAS measurements will provide new information about the physical conditions (density and temperature) and chemistry in star-forming molecular clouds.
## Launch
The spacecraft was delivered to Orbital Sciences Corporation at Vandenberg Air Force Base on 2 November 1998, for integration onto their Pegasus XL launch vehicle. Launch occurred on 6 December 1998, at 00:57:54 UTC, from Orbital Sciences\' *Stargazer* L-1011 TriStar mothership. Its initial orbit was a near-circular 638 xx with an inclination of 69.90°.
SWAS was originally scheduled to launch in June 1995 but was delayed due to back-to-back launch failures of the Pegasus XL launch vehicle in June 1994 and June 1995. A launch opportunity in January 1997 was again canceled due to a Pegasus XL launch failure in November 1996.
The commissioning phase of the mission lasted until 19 December 1998, when the telescope began producing useful science data. The SWAS mission had a planned duration of two years and a cost estimate of US\$60 million, but mission extensions allowed for five and a half years of continuous science operations. During this time, data was taken on more than 200 astronomical objects. The decision was made to end science and spacecraft operations on 21 July 2004, at which time the spacecraft was placed into hibernation.
## Deep Impact mission {#deep_impact_mission}
To support the *Deep Impact* mission at comet 9P/Tempel, SWAS was brought out of hibernation on 1 June 2005. Vehicle check-out was completed on 5 June 2005 with no discernible degradation of equipment found. SWAS observations of the comet focused on isotopic water output both before and after the *Deep Impact* impactor struck the comet\'s nucleus on 4 July 2005. While water output was found to naturally vary by more than a factor of three during the observation campaign, SWAS data showed that there was no excessive release of water due to the impact event. After three months of observation, SWAS was once again placed into hibernation on 1 September 2005.

# Running man (dance)
The **running man** is a street dance, consisting of \"shuffling\" and sliding steps, imitating a stationary runner. The dancer takes steps forward, then slides the foot placed in front backwards almost immediately, while moving their fists forwards and back horizontally in front of them. The fad dance was said to have been started in the mid-1980s.
Notable practitioners of the dance were MC Hammer, Janet Jackson, Five Star, Selena, Milli Vanilli, and Vanilla Ice during their live concert shows and in music videos. According to Janet, Paula Abdul learned and then taught her the dance. Abdul also choreographed the 1987 film *The Running Man*. Jackson further popularized the dance, when she performed it in her 1989 music video \"Rhythm Nation\".
## Dance history {#dance_history}
The running man is one of the most recognizable hip hop dances. Sources claim that MC Hammer developed the party dance in Oakland, California. Before the 1980s ended, Hammer made the dance his own, complete with his signature Hammer pants. Bobby Brown also popularized a variant called the Roger Rabbit dance (similar to a \"backwards\" running man), as seen in the music video for his song \"Every Little Step\" (1989). A proto version of the step was performed by one of Nigeria\'s Fela Anikulapo-Kuti female dancers on stage at his 1978 Berlin concert in Germany (1:17:11; ).
The running man achieved massive popularity during the early to mid 1990s, and later scored a meme revival during the late 2000s, being performed in a similar manner as the Melbourne shuffle dance style. Additionally, singer Britney Spears performed it during her The M+M\'s Tour, and Scarlett Johansson claimed \"I do a great running man\" in an interview with *Seventeen*.
In 2008, \"Something Good\" by the Utah Saints was re-released. The video, set in 1989, comically suggests that the running man craze started in Cardiff, Wales. It features many people dancing the running man and ends with the \"rights\" to the dance being signed over to MC Hammer under duress.
The pop duo LMFAO brought the running man back into the mainstream with their song \"Party Rock Anthem\", which was named the 2011 song of the summer by *Billboard*

**Luigia Abbadia** (1821--1896) was an Italian operatic mezzo-soprano known for her fine voice, secure technique, and a strong temperament. Possessing an uncommonly wide range, Abbadia sang several roles traditionally portrayed by sopranos in addition to roles from the mezzo-soprano repertoire.
## Biography
Abbadia was born in Genoa to composer Natale Abbadia. She studied music under her father before making her professional opera debut at Sassari in 1836. Over the next several years she appeared in operas throughout Italy, including performances in Novara, Brescia, Triest, Monza, Turin, Bologna, Padua and Piacenza. In 1838 she sang the role of Agnese de Maino in Bellini\'s *Beatrice di Tenda* in Mantua. In 1840 she sang the role of Corilla in Donizetti\'s *Le convenienze ed inconvenienze teatrali* in Vienna. That same year she originated the role of Giulietta di Kelbar in the world premiere of Verdi\'s *Un giorno di regno* at La Scala and originated the role of Rovena in Nicolai\'s *Il templario* at the Teatro Regio in Turin. The following year she returned to La Scala to create the roles of Ines in the original production of Donizetti\'s *Maria Padilla* and the role of Delizia in the original production of Federico Ricci\'s *Corrado d\'Altamura*. Her other roles at La Scala included Marie in *La fille du régiment*, Elvira in *Ernani*, Emilia in Mercadante\'s *La vestale*, Eleonora in Donizetti\'s *Torquato Tasso*, and the title roles in Donizetti\'s *Alina, regina di Golconda* and Pacini\'s *Saffo*. Other highlights of her stage career included portrayals of Alisa in Donizetti\'s *Lucia di Lammermoor*, Angelina in Rossini\'s *La Cenerentola*, Arsace in Rossini\'s *Semiramide*, and Normanno in Mercadante\'s *I Normanni a Parigi*.
In 1860--61, Abbadia participated in a tour of Germany with the opera company of Achille Lorini which included performances in Berlin and Hamburg among other cities. After retiring from the stage in 1870 she established a singing school in Milan. Several of her pupils went on to have successful opera careers including mezzo-soprano Giuseppina Pasqua and tenor Giovanni Battista De Negri

# Button blanket
A **button blanket** is wool blanket embellished with mother-of-pearl buttons, created by Northwest Coastal tribes, that is worn for ceremonial purposes.
\"Ceremonial robes and their associated regalia have been among the most spectacular creations of the Indian people of the Northwest Coast of North America. For generations, these robes have served as insignia of family and clan histories, duties, rights, and privileges, and they are beginning to mark as well a determined presence in contemporary Canadian society. These robes are powerful statements of identity and, donning them, people become in a real sense what they wear.\"
Rather than sleeping equipment, the blankets are used as capes and gifts at ceremonial dances and potlatches.
The blankets were originally acquired from the Hudson\'s Bay Company traders during the mid-19th century. The trade blankets were typically dark blue duffel and decorated with buttons made from abalone or dentalium shells. The central crest typically portrayed a symbol of the wearer\'s family heritage.
The blankets usually have a red border on the upper and lateral edges. A central crest figure is created from the buttons and red flannel appliqué. Button blankets are worn over the shoulders and the crest design hangs on the back of the wearer.
Among the people who make button blankets, the blankets are not hung from walls except at funerals or near the graves of chiefs.
Haida artist Florence Davidson (1896--1993) was known for her button blankets.
In 2015, law student Christina Gray of the Lax Kw\'alaams Tsimshian nation formally obtained the right to wear a button blanket and cedar hat with her barrister\'s robes during the ceremony in which she was called to the bar in Ontario. She cited the use of the button blanket as a symbol of her nation\'s legal traditions

# Sassetti Chapel
The **Sassetti Chapel** (Italian: **Cappella Sassetti**) is a chapel in the basilica of Santa Trinita in Florence, Italy. It is especially notable for its frescoes of the *Stories of St. Francis*, considered Domenico Ghirlandaio\'s masterwork.
## History
Francesco Sassetti (1421--1490) was a rich banker and a member of the Medici entourage, for which he directed the Medici Bank. In 1478 he acquired the chapel of St. Francis in Santa Trinita, after his proposal to add a decoration portraying the saint had been rejected by the Dominicans of Santa Maria Novella, where his family had had a chapel (later also frescoed by Ghirlandaio, and now known as the Tornabuoni Chapel) since the 14th century.
He commissioned the execution of the frescoes from the most famed artist of the city, Domenico Ghirlandaio. The date of the contract is that signed next to the portraits of Sassetti and his wife (December 25, 1480), although the work was not carried out until between 1483 and 1486. The central altarpiece, depicting the *Adoration of the Shepherds*, is dated 1485.
Ghirlandaio portrayed numerous figures of contemporary Florentine society in the scenes. All the work shows the importance of the influence of the Flemish school on Ghirlandaio, in particular the *Portinari Triptych* by Hugo van der Goes, taken by him to Florence in 1483 and now in the Uffizi.
The Sassetti Chapel was restored in 2004.
## Structure
The chapel, like the church in which it is located, is in Gothic style, characterized by an ogival arch.
The fresco cycle covers three walls framed by *trompe-l\'œil* architectural elements. The altarpiece is also framed by a painted marble decoration. The two side walls house the tombs of Francesco Sassetti and his wife Nera Corsi, under a gilded arch, a creation of Giuliano da Sangallo. At the side of the altar are kneeling portraits of the two patrons, Nera Corsi on the left and Sassetti on the right: they direct their prayers towards the central altarpiece of the *Adoration of the Shepherds*, also by Ghirlandaio.
Ghirlandaio\'s frescoes can also be seen in the upper transept wall, outside the chapel. This area was plastered in the 18th century, the paintings being rediscovered only in 1895, which accounts for their poorer state of conservation. The work outside the Sassetti chapel is attributed to the three Ghirlandaio brothers (Domenico, David and Benedetto) and assistants. Its perspective was devised to offer a perfect view from below.
The first scene painted above the chapel is the *Tiburtine Sibyl Announces Jesus\' Coming* to Augustus. The Sibyl is probably a portrait of Sassetti\'s daughter, Sibilla. On the pilaster dividing the Sassetti Chapel from the subsequent one is a painted grisaille statue of *David*. In the vault of the chapel are the four Sibyls, surrounded by flaming aureoles and holding out banderoles describing their prophetic role as assigned them by Virgil:
> : Hec teste Virgil Magnus, in ultima autem etate;
> : Invisibile verbum palapabitur germinabit.
Only the faces of the Sibyls are attributed to Ghirlandaio; the bodies were probably executed by his workshop.

## The *Stories of St. Francis* {#the_stories_of_st._francis}
The fresco cycle extends over three walls of the chapels, and includes six scenes:
- *Renunciation of Worldly Goods*
- *The Confirmation of the Franciscan Rule*
- *The Test of Fire*
- *The Miracle of the Stigmata*
- *Death of St. Francis*
- *The Resurrection of the Boy*
Ghirlandaio had possibly never seen the *Stories of St. Francis*in the Basilica di San Francesco in Assisi, but he must certainly have known those in the Bardi Chapel of Santa Croce in Florence, painted by Giotto in the early 14th century.
### *Renunciation of Worldly Goods* {#renunciation_of_worldly_goods}
This scene is located on the upper left wall, and portrays the young Francis who having renounced all his assets by removing his clothes publicly, is protected by the bishop of Perugia. Francis\' raging father is shown with some people restraining him. The scene is set in a northern European city which had been identified as Geneva or Lyon, where Sassetti had served for the Medici. The secondary figures could be work by Domenico\'s brothers and workshop.
### *The Confirmation of the Rule* {#the_confirmation_of_the_rule}
This scene, in the upper central wall, depicts St. Francis being received by Pope Innocent III in 1209 at the Cathedral of Sant Giovanni in Laterano at the time of the Franciscan Order\'s sanction by the Pope. The figures are portrayed in a cathedral interior, so that the chapel\'s arch resembles the triumphal arch of the church. The scene is set in Florence instead of Rome, the background showing the Piazza della Signoria, the Palazzo Vecchio and the Loggia dei Lanzi, which did not at that time contain statues). The choice of the city was an allusion to the power and status that Florence had assumed; in Humanist circles it was considered a new Rome or Jerusalem.
A drawing, now in Berlin, shows that initially Ghirlandaio had intended a more traditional iconography following that of the frescoes in Santa Croce and without the portraits. Later he modified it, dividing the pictorial space into three planes: the steps, the church and the background. On the right, in the foreground, are Sassetti\'s brother-in-law, the Gonfaloniere di Giustizia Antonio di Puccio Pucci; Sassetti\'s employer, Lorenzo de\' Medici; Francesco Sassetti himself and his son Federico. Lorenzo raises his hand to greet Angelo Poliziano, the tutor of his sons who are featured ascending the stairs. They are Giuliano, Piero and Giovanni, the future Pope Leo X, followed by other members of the Humanist Academy, Luigi Pulci and Matteo Franco. Sassetti is pointing out his older sons on the other side of the stairs: Galeazzo, Teodoro and Cosimo.
This painting, which is considered one of Ghirlandaio\'s masterpieces, provides the most reliable portraits of these various 15th century people, as, unlike the work of Botticelli, who also painted members of the Medici household, they are neither stylised, nor do they appear to be idealised.
### *The Test of Fire* {#the_test_of_fire}
This scene is located on the upper right wall. It portrays St. Francis preaching to the Ayyubid sultan Al-Kamil, who asked him to walk over a fire to demonstrate his sanctity. The piece is rather similar to that of Giotto in Santa Croce with the sultan in the middle, St. Francis on the right with his brother friars, but with Ghirlandaio\'s innovation of a figure in the foreground whose back is to the observer. It is one of the best executed parts of the cycle.
### *The Miracle of the Stigmata* {#the_miracle_of_the_stigmata}
The lower left wall represents St. Francis kneeling, with open arms, receiving the divine sign from an apparition of the crucified Christ supported by a group of cherubim. The fresco was executed in ten days. Although featuring similar iconography to Giotto\'s work in Santa Croce, it is more likely that Ghirlandaio was inspired by the marble relief of Benedetto da Maiano\'s pulpit, also in Santa Croce. The miracle portrayed occurred at La Verna, the castles of which can be seen in the background which is characterized by a naturalistic rendering of outstanding quality, including a well executed deer. On the right can be seen a city on a lake, a fanciful representation of Pisa with its Duomo and Leaning Tower.
### *The Death of St. Francis* {#the_death_of_st._francis}
The last scene of the cycle is on the lower right wall and was executed in 28 days. It shows the dead saint lying on a catafalque in the middle of a large Renaissance church, surrounded by numerous figures. That the composition is derived from Giotto\'s work in Santa Croce is clearly seen in various elements including the monks\' gestures, though Ghirlandaio added different details such as the monumental background and the varying responses of the different figures.
The three people on the right, a father with his son and nephew, are probably connected to the Sassetti family. On the right the tutor Poliziano is again portrayed alongside Bartolomeo Fonzio.

## The *Stories of St. Francis* {#the_stories_of_st._francis}
### *The Resurrection of the Boy* {#the_resurrection_of_the_boy}
This scene portrays a posthumous miracle by St. Francis, connected to the Sassetti family and for this reason located in a central position of the chapel, although out of chronological order with the death of St Francis. It portrays the resurrection of a boy who had died falling from Palazzo Spini Feroni, a palace on the piazza facing Santa Trinita. According to some authorities, Ghirlandaio was inspired by Masaccio\'s *The Tribute Money* in the Brancacci Chapel.
The resurrected boy is in the middle of the composition, sitting with his hands together on a bed covered with Eastern-style drapes. St. Francis, appearing as an apparition, blesses him from the sky, while, on either side, a group of people attend the scene. Among the people portrayed are numerous figures from contemporary Florence. The five women on the left are probably Sassetti\'s daughters, their husbands or fiancées being visible on the right in the foreground. The last man in the first left row is Ghirlandaio himself. Also notable is the presence of a Moorish female servant. Other figures portrayed on the right include Maso degli Albizzi, Angelo Acciaioli, Palla Strozzi and Neri di Gino Capponi. The last two people on the right are probably Poliziano and Fonzio.
The scene is also important as it shows in detail the appearance of the Santa Trinita\'s piazza in the 15th century, with the old Romanesque façade of the church, Palazzo Spini Feroni still with the appearance of a fortress and an undecorated Ponte Santa Trinita. The three figures behind the bier are attributed to assistants.

## The altarpiece {#the_altarpiece}
The *Adoration of the Shepherds* was painted in 1485. It is recognized as one of Ghirlandaio\'s masterpieces, as well as one of the Florentine painting school. The work shows clear influences of the Flemish school, the artist having studied Hugo van der Goes\' *Portinari Altarpiece*, which had been taken to Florence in 1483 by the Portinari family for the church of Sant\'Egidio. Ghirlandaio\'s inspiration from that work is shown by positioning and realist handling of the three shepherds on the right, one of which is the artist\'s self-portrait. The frame has the inscription \"Ipsum quem genuit adoravit Maria\" (\"Maria worshiped the one whom she bore\").
Also influenced by Flemish painting is the attention to detail: every object has a precise symbolic role; and the well-rendered airy perspective, with the landscape fading towards a detailed representation of a hill and a town. The farthest city, on the right, is a symbolic Jerusalem with the domed edifice; in front of it is a dead tree, a reference to its conquest. The left city represents Rome, with the two sepulchres of the \"prophetic\" emperors, Augustus and Hadrian (who, at the time, was thought to be buried under the Torre delle Milizie). In the city, however, a church resembling Santa Maria del Fiore can be seen, a hint of the role of Florence as a new Rome.
The altarpiece is flanked by the two kneeling portraits of the donors.
The scene is set on a flowering lawn, with Mary to the left foreground, kneeling in front of the Child. The manger, before which the Child lies, is an ancient Roman sarcophagus with the inscription \"Ense cadens soly mo Pompei Fulvi\[us\] augur Numen aitquae me conteg\[it\] urna dabit\", an allusion of the coming of Christ through the prophecy of Fulvius, killed by Pompey the Great during the Roman conquest of Jerusalem. The prophecy said that from the sarcophagus housing his remains a God will rise, a reference to the victory of Christianity over Paganism.
Next to Mary is Saint Joseph looking upwards as, in the background, an angel is announcing to the shepherds the coming of Christ, while on the left, the long procession of the Magi is passing under a triumphal arch. The arch has the inscription: \"Gn\[eo\] Pompeo Magno Hircanus Pont\[ifex\] P\[osuit\]\" (\"The priest Hircanus erected \[this arch\] in honor of Gnaius Pompey the Great\"). On the left, the two nearest Magi are staring at a light visible from above the hut\'s roof, coming perhaps from the star. Behind the sarcophagus are an ox and a donkey, symbols of the Jews and the Gentiles.
The three rocks in the very foreground are a hint to the Sassetti, whose name in Italian means \"Small rocks\". Perched on one of them is a goldfinch, symbol of Christ\'s Passion and resurrection

# Bulls–Pistons rivalry
The **Bulls--Pistons rivalry** is an NBA rivalry between the Chicago Bulls and Detroit Pistons. The rivalry began in the late 1980s and was one of the most intense in NBA history for several years, when Michael Jordan evolved into one of the league\'s best players and the Pistons became a playoff contender. They represent the two largest metro areas in the Midwest and are only separated by a 280 mi stretch of road, mostly covered by I-94, which is a factor in the two cities' rivalries with each other in other sports besides basketball.
## History
### 1988--90: The Bad Boys and Jordan Rules {#the_bad_boys_and_jordan_rules}
The two teams met in the playoffs for the first time in the 1974 Western Conference Semifinals which the Bulls won in seven games. But the rivalry really started in the 1988 Eastern Conference Semifinals after the Pistons and Bulls beat the Bullets and Cavs in the first round 3--2. The aggressive *Bad Boys*, as Detroit became known, were the rising power in the Eastern Conference. Michael Jordan, on the other hand, was league MVP, Defensive Player of the Year, and the ultimate challenge for the Pistons\' top-notch defense. In a nationally televised game in Detroit on Easter Sunday, Jordan scored 59 points in a 112--110 Bulls victory. Previously, in 1987, he had scored 61 points in a 125--120 OT victory. This angered Chuck Daly, who vowed never to allow Jordan to light them up again. Despite Jordan\'s individual skills, the Bulls lacked the talent and mental toughness to beat Detroit, who defeated Chicago in 5 games. The Pistons went on to beat Boston in 6 and won their first Conference title since they moved from Fort Wayne. In 1989, the Pistons were stronger and posted a season-best record of 63--19. They reached the Conference Finals by sweeping the Celtics and Bucks. The 6th-seeded Bulls (47--35) had surprising success in the playoffs by upsetting the Cavs 3--2 with *The Shot* and Knicks 4--2. The Bulls met Detroit in the Eastern Conference Finals. Bulls success continued as they took a 2--1 series lead. But the Pistons clamped down and employed the \"Jordan Rules\" (which consisted of solely targeting Jordan) which worked so well for them the year prior. While they remained silent about them when asked by the media, many Pistons today say that it was just another psychological ploy they made up to throw the Bulls off their game. According to Pistons forward Rick Mahorn,
The Pistons won 3 straight games and went on to win their first NBA title.
While both teams intensely disliked each other, there was particular animosity between Michael Jordan and Pistons star Isiah Thomas. Thomas, who was a Chicago native and basketball legend in the city, is accused of feeling that Jordan was taking the city away from him and getting unearned attention. Thomas was accused of leading a so-called \"freeze-out\" in the 1985 NBA All-Star Game that involved Thomas and other NBA veterans keeping the ball away from Jordan. In retaliation, when the 1992 United States men\'s Olympic basketball team was being formed Isiah was not part of the team, which people attribute to Jordan and Scottie Pippen stating that they did not want to play if Thomas was on the team, with Pippen going as far to label him as a \"cheap shot artist\".
For the 1989--90 season under new coach Phil Jackson, the Bulls sought to subvert the \"Jordan Rules\" by focusing on the triangle offense refined by assistant coach Tex Winter. By sharing responsibility rather than shouldering it, Jordan led Chicago to the second-best record in the East at 55--27 behind the defending champion Pistons, who finished 59--23. The rematch was set up when Detroit swept Indiana in the opening round, then ousted New York in 5. The Bulls beat the Bucks in 4 and 76ers in 5. In an Eastern Conference Finals rematch, Chicago pushed Detroit to the limit. But the Pistons showed their dominance and won Game 7 at home. The Pistons went on to win their 2nd straight NBA title against the Blazers.
### 1991: The Bulls finally break through {#the_bulls_finally_break_through}
For the 1990--91 season, Bulls posted the best record in the East at 61--21, while the Pistons would drop to third with a record of 50--32. The Bulls reached the Conference Finals by sweeping the Knicks and beating the 76ers in 5, while the Pistons disposed of Atlanta in 5 and beat Boston in 6. Both teams met in the Conference Finals for the third straight year, with Chicago holding home-court advantage for the first time. Chicago swept Detroit. Isiah Thomas, Bill Laimbeer and Mark Aguirre, in their last show of defiance, walked off the court with 7.9 seconds left so as not to congratulate them. Only Joe Dumars and John Salley shook hands with any of the Bulls. In the NBA Finals, the Bulls defeated Magic Johnson\'s Lakers to win their 1st NBA title.

# Bulls–Pistons rivalry
## History
### Dormancy
The Pistons and Bulls would never again meet in the playoffs during the Bulls dynasty, although they came close in both 1992 and 1997. Following the 1991 sweep, James Edwards and Vinnie Johnson would leave the Pistons as free agents, and the team would see a steady decline. Chuck Daly would resign as head coach after the 1991--92 season. Following Daly\'s departure, the Pistons went through a lengthy transitional period, as key players either retired (Laimbeer in 1993 and Thomas in 1994) or got traded (John Salley, Dennis Rodman among others). They would bottom out in the 1993--94 season, finishing only 20--62.
With the arrival of Grant Hill (drafted 3rd overall in 1994), the Pistons once again became a playoff team in the latter half of the 1990s. Despite seeing some success during that period, they never became true title contenders.
Meanwhile, the Bulls proceeded to win 6 titles in 8 years, including two three-peats, with an early retirement and return of Michael Jordan in between. Former Piston Dennis Rodman, would be traded to the Bulls in 1995 and play an integral part in the second three-peat and during that second three-peat Dennis Rodman would not interact with Jordan or Pippen outside of games(John Salley and James Edwards were also on the team during the record-breaking 72-win 1995--96 season). After the 6th title, the Bulls were dramatically dismantled: Jordan, Scottie Pippen, Rodman, and coach Phil Jackson all left. Afterwards, the Bulls had five losing seasons and did not yield a competitive squad until former Bull John Paxson (who was a member of the first 3 title teams) became the GM and acquired players to form a team with efficient perimeter offense and strong interior defense.
After being swept by the Miami Heat in the 2000 playoffs, Joe Dumars was hired as President of Basketball Operations of Pistons. Dumars eventually revamped the Pistons\' roster with players like Ben Wallace, Chucky Atkins, Chauncey Billups, Richard \"Rip\" Hamilton, Tayshaun Prince. and Rasheed Wallace. They were constant playoff contenders with Six consecutive Eastern Conference Finals appearances between 2003 and 2008. They defeated the Los Angeles Lakers in five games for the team\'s third NBA championship in 2004 NBA Finals.

## History
### The rivalry returns {#the_rivalry_returns}
The rivalry was restored in the 2006 offseason when the Bulls signed free agent Ben Wallace, the cornerstone of the Pistons\' defense. The addition of Wallace was immediately felt when the Bulls won the first regular season game in a blowout against the defending champion Miami Heat, the team that defeated the Pistons in the 2006 Eastern Conference Finals.
The move of Ben Wallace stymied the Pistons early in the season, as the team sought to look for consistency without him. Dumars took the initiative and signed Chris Webber, who was just released from the 76ers. The teams met in the Eastern Conference Semifinals after the Pistons swept the Magic and the Bulls swept the Heat. The Pistons dominated the early parts of the series, stifling the Bulls\' guards to sub-40% shooting to win not only the first two games at home, but also the first game in Chicago, in which the Pistons came back from a 17-point deficit in the second half. The Bulls shut down the Pistons\' offense in the next two games to win Games 4 and 5. However, the Pistons won Game 6 in Chicago, winning the series 4--2.
### Another dormant period {#another_dormant_period}
The Pistons made it back to the Conference Finals in 2008. Chauncey Billups was traded early in the 2009 season, and they steadily declined. The Cleveland Cavaliers swept them in 2009. The Pistons signed free-agents Ben Gordon and Charlie Villanueva, and welcomed back Ben Wallace that offseason. However, injuries demoted them from an Eastern Conference power, winning only 27 games in the 2010 season, thus a rebuilding period for the team began. The team did manage to make it to the playoffs once again in 2016, once again losing to the Cleveland Cavaliers in a four-game sweep.
After missing the playoffs in a dismal 2008, the Bulls earned the first pick in the 2008 NBA draft. They selected Chicago native Derrick Rose. The Bulls steadily rose to one of the NBA\'s elite teams; after a pair of 41-win seasons in Rose\'s first two seasons, the Bulls signed free-agent forward Carlos Boozer, and with the development of Joakim Noah to one of the best centers in the league, the Bulls rose the ranks in the Eastern Conference. However, subsequent injuries to Rose demoted them from being an elite team, and the team would struggle with inconsistency for several years. After trading Rose in 2016 and star forward Jimmy Butler in 2017, another rebuilding period began for the Bulls. Later on, Jordan would reflect on the Bulls--Pistons rivalry and he still does not like the Bad Boys Pistons team.
On January 19, 2023, the Bulls and Pistons played the NBA Paris Game at Accor Arena in Paris, France during the regular season. The Bulls, led by Zach LaVine, won the game 126--108.

The school\'s first classes were held in the School of Arts building, now the site of the Police and Community Youth Club in Byng Street. The school then moved to purpose-built facilities on the corner of March Street and Sale Street, which are now part of the TAFE complex.
Amongst the decisions made in the first year were for the school colours to be black and gold, the design of the school badge and the motto, *\"Quod Potero Sedulo\"* (translated from Latin as \"Whatever I can do, I will do to the best of my ability\").
Students were housed at the March Street school from 1913 through until 1958, at which time the High School and Rural School were merged. The current school buildings, sited on Woodward Street near the western end of the main street, Summer Street, were opened on 13 November 1959. During the opening ceremony, the Principal, Mr O\'Sullivan, stated that in 1913 the total number of students enrolled was 93 with six teachers on staff. Presently the school caters for just under 1,100 students and has 70 teaching staff.
## Co-curriculum {#co_curriculum}
### Music
The school has a music department and stages frequent concerts. It had a stage band, which was regarded`{{By whom|date=August 2010}}`{=mediawiki} as one of the best in the state. In addition to the stage band, the school had a concert band, a choir, and other smaller ensembles. The stage band was placed first in division 2, two years running, at the South Australian Mount Gambier Generations in Jazz Festival sometime ago.`{{when|date=July 2019}}`{=mediawiki}
### Sport
Students of Orange High School may choose to participate in a variety of sporting activities, including cricket, netball, rugby union, rugby league, soccer, softball, aerobics, badminton, and lawn bowls. The School participates in statewide competitions and maintains links with the traditional \"Astley Cup\" and \"Malyney Shield\".
All students take part in swimming and athletics carnivals, and the school also enters students in weekend competitions, including netball, hockey, softball and triathlon.

# Judenplatz Holocaust Memorial
The **Judenplatz Holocaust Memorial** (*lit=Memorial to the 65,000 Austrian Jews who were Murdered in the Shoah*) also known as the **Nameless Library** stands in Judenplatz in the first district of Vienna. It is the central memorial for the Austrian victims of the Holocaust and was designed by British artist Rachel Whiteread.
## Conception
The memorial began with an initiative of Simon Wiesenthal. Wiesenthal became a spokesman for the public offense taken over the *Mahnmal gegen Krieg und Faschismus* in Albertinaplatz, created by Alfred Hrdlicka in 1988, which portrayed Jewish victims in an undignified way. As a result of this controversy, Wiesenthal began the commission for a memorial dedicated especially to the Jewish victims of Nazi fascism in Austria. It was built by the city of Vienna under the Mayor Michael Häupl, after Rachel Whiteread\'s design was chosen unanimously by an international jury under the leadership of the architect Hans Hollein. The members of the jury were Michael Haupl, Ursula Pasterk, Hannes Swoboda, Amnon Barzel, Phyllis Lambert, Sylvie Liska, Harald Szeemann, George Weidenfeld, Simon Wiesenthal, and Robert Storr. Individuals and teams of artists and architects from Austria, Israel, Great Britain and the United States were invited to the competition. They were Valie Export, Karl Prantl and Peter Waldbauer as a team; Zbynek Sekal; Heimo Zobernig, working with Michael Hofstatter and Wolfgang Pauzenberger; Michael Clegg and Martin Guttman as a team; Ilya Kabakov; Rachel Whiteread; and Peter Eisenman. The submissions had to take into account the design constraints of the site at Judenplatz, and texts including a memorial inscription and the listing of all concentration camps in which Austrian Jews were killed.
Originally scheduled to be finished on 9 November 1996, the 58th anniversary of Kristallnacht, the completion was delayed for four years due to various controversies both political and aesthetic, but also setbacks due to concerns over the archaeological excavations beneath the site. The total costs paid by the city of Vienna were 160 million Schillings, including 8 million for the memorial by Rachel Whiteread, 15 million for planning, 23 million for the beginning of construction work, 40 million for structural measures for Misrachi-Haus, and 74 million for the archaeological viewing area. The memorial was unveiled on 25 October 2000, one day before the Austrian national holiday. In attendance was the President of Austria Thomas Klestil, Mayor of Vienna Michael Häupl, President of the Israelitische Kultusgemeinde Wien Ariel Muzicant, Simon Wiesenthal, Rachel Whiteread, and further dignitaries and guests.
The memorial was created five years before the erection of the Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe in Berlin.

# Judenplatz Holocaust Memorial
## Design
The memorial is a steel and concrete construction with a base measuring 10 x 7 meters and a height of 3.8 meters. The outside surfaces of the volume are cast library shelves turned inside out. The spines of the books are facing inwards and are not visible, therefore the titles of the volumes are unknown and the content of the books remains unrevealed. The shelves of the memorial appear to hold endless copies of the same edition, which stand for the vast number of the victims, as well as the concept of Jews as \"People of the Book.\" The double doors are cast with the panels inside out, and have no doorknobs or handles. They suggest the possibility of coming and going, but do not open.
The memorial represents, in the style of Whiteread\'s \"empty spaces\", a library whose books are shown on the outside but are unreadable. The memorial can be understood as an appreciation of Judaism as a religion of the \"book\"; however, it also speaks of a cultural space of memory and loss created by the genocide of the European Jews. Through the emphasis of void and negative casting rather than positive form and material, it acts as a \"counter monument\" in this way opposite to the production through history of grandiose and triumphal monumental objects.
As a work of art, the memorial was not intended to be beautiful and as such it contrasts with much of the Baroque art and architecture of Vienna. A member of the design jury had noticed a resemblance to a bunker and the military fortifications of the Atlantic wall were later confirmed by the artist as a source of inspiration for the project. There is an aspect of discomfort in the monument that was meant to provoke thought in the viewer through the memorial\'s severe presence. It was intended to evoke the tragedy and brutality of the Holocaust and in the words of Simon Wiesenthal at the unveiling, \"This monument shouldn\'t be beautiful, It must hurt.\"
At the request of the artist, the memorial was not given an anti-graffiti coating. She explained:
## Engravings
Although no texts are found on the cast books, two texts are engraved on the base of the memorial. On the concrete floor before the locked double doors is a text in German, Hebrew, and English, that points out the crime of the Holocaust and the estimated number of Austrian victims. In the centre is a Star of David. `{{quotation|<div class{{=}}`{=mediawiki}\"center\"\> Zum Gedenken an die mehr als 65 000 österreichischen Juden, die in der Zeit von 1938 bis 1945 von den Nationalsozialisten ermordet wurden.
זכר למעלה מ-65.000 יהודים אוסטריים שנרצחו בשנים 1945-1938 ע\"י הפושעים הנציונלסוציאליסטיים ימ\"ש. *(literal translation: memory of more than 65,000 Austrian Jews who were murdered in the years 1938-45 by the National Socialist criminals, may their names be obliterated.)*
In commemoration of more than 65,000 Austrian Jews who were killed by the Nazis between 1938 and 1945.
\|Inscriptions below the doors.}} Engraved on the plinth on the two sides and back of the memorial are the names of those places where Austrian Jews were murdered during Nazi rule: Auschwitz, Bełżec, Bergen-Belsen, Brčko, Buchenwald, Chełmno, Dachau, Flossenbürg, Groß-Rosen, Gurs, Hartheim, Izbica, Jasenovac, Jungfernhof, Kaiserwald, Kielce, Kowno, Łagów, Litzmannstadt, Lublin, Majdanek, Maly Trostinec, Mauthausen, Minsk, Mittelbau/Dora, Modliborzyce, Natzweiler, Neuengamme, Nisko, Opatów, Opole, Ravensbrück, Rejowiec, Riga, Šabac, Sachsenhausen, Salaspils, San Sabba, Sobibor, Stutthof, Theresienstadt, Trawniki, Treblinka, Włodawa, and Zamość.
## Judenplatz
The Holocaust Memorial is site specific and would be entirely different if it had been planned and constructed on a different site. Therefore, it is intricately connected with the history, institutions, and other works of art in Judenplatz.
Judenplatz and the memorial are unique in Europe. The square unites the excavations of the medieval synagogue underground, that was burned down in the \"Viennese Geserah\" of 1420, with the modern memorial above ground. On the ground floor of the neighbouring Misrachi house, the *Dokumentationsarchiv des österreichischen Widerstandes* in co-operation with the Israelitische Kultusgemeinde Wien established an information area. Names and data of the 65,000 murdered Austrian Jews, and the circumstances that led to their persecution and murder, are publicly presented. The museum at the Judenplatz, which is in the Misrachi house, has a permanent exhibition about the history of Judenplatz, and the foundations of the destroyed Or-Sarua synagogue directly under the memorial can be visited. (see also: History of the Jews in Austria).
During his visit in August 2007, Pope Benedict XVI paid tribute to the victims at the monument, accompanied by the Chief Rabbi Paul Chaim Eisenberg and other dignitaries

# The George Carlin Show
***The George Carlin Show*** is an American sitcom that aired Sunday at 9:30 pm on the Fox network from January 1994 to July 1995. It was created by Sam Simon, who executive produced the show jointly with the show\'s namesake, comedian George Carlin. On the show, Carlin played a New York City taxicab driver.
## Synopsis
The action was centered on George O\'Grady (George Carlin), a taxicab driver living in New York City. Most of the scenes took place in The Moylan Tavern, owned and run by bartender Jack Donahue (Anthony Starke), who had inherited the establishment from his father. The setting\'s real-life basis was the actual, now-defunct Moylan Tavern,`{{cite news |title=George Drank Here |url=https://www.nytimes.com/2009/05/17/nyregion/thecity/17corr02.html |access-date=6 March 2025 |work=The New York Times |date=16 May 2009}}`{=mediawiki}
a bar that existed during Carlin\'s childhood on Broadway between La Salle Street and Tiemann Place,
in the Morningside Heights neighborhood, and owned by the grandparents of film critic and author Maitland McDonagh. As Carlin recalled in 1994, \"It was where I saw Oswald shot. It was where I headed during the \[1965\] blackout. The Moylan is where I came of age.\"
-
- The name of the show\'s bartender character, Jack Donahue, was taken from that of real-life owner Jimmy Donahue, who bought the bar from the original owners. The set itself, however, resembled another upper-Broadway bar, Carlin said: \"Cannon\'s`{{cite news |title=Tara Hill Irish Tavern, formerly known as Cannon's, to close on July 1 |url=http://columbiaspectator.com/news/2016/06/04/tara-hill-irish-tavern-formerly-known-cannons-close-july-1 |access-date=6 March 2025 |work=[[Columbia Daily Spectator]] |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160605103255/http://columbiaspectator.com/news/2016/06/04/tara-hill-irish-tavern-formerly-known-cannons-close-july-1 |archive-date=June 5, 2016}}`{=mediawiki}

## George Carlin\'s criticism {#george_carlins_criticism}
Carlin noted on his website: `{{blockquote|January, 1994 - "The George Carlin Show" premieres on Fox Television. Lasts 27 episodes. Lesson learned: always check mental health of creative partner beforehand. Loved the actors, loved the crew. Had a great time. Couldn't wait to get the fuck out of there. Canceled December, 1995.<ref>{{cite web | url = http://www.georgecarlin.com/time/time3E.html | publisher = GeorgeCarlin.com | title = 1990-1999 | url-status = dead | archiveurl = https://web.archive.org/web/20090130011335/http://www.georgecarlin.com/time/time3E.html | archivedate = 2009-01-30 }}</ref>}}`{=mediawiki}
He later elaborated in his posthumously published autobiography *Last Words*: `{{blockquote|I had a great time. I never laughed so much, so often, so hard as I did with cast members Alex Rocco, Chris Rich, Tony Starke. There was a very strange, very good sense of humor on that stage...The biggest problem, though, was that [[Sam Simon]] was a fucking horrible person to be around. Very, very funny, extremely bright and brilliant, but an unhappy person who treated other people poorly...I was incredibly happy when the show was canceled. I was frustrated that it had taken me away from my true work.<ref>{{cite book | title = Last Words |last1=Carlin |first1=George |last2=Hendra |first2=Tony |author1-link=George Carlin |author2-link=Tony Hendra | publisher = [[Free Press (publisher)|Free Press]] | year= 2009 | pages = 252–254}}</ref>}}`{=mediawiki}
He went on to speak in the book of not enjoying the committee-style writer\'s room, which he felt alienated anyone who was not a professional television writer.
Simon in 2013 addressed Carlin\'s comments, saying:

## Reception
The show received an approval rating of 88% on review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes, based on eight reviews.
Todd Everett of *Variety*, gave the show a positive review, saying: \"The Moylan Tavern \-- and Carlin\'s aging hipster character translates well to the sitcom stage. This is the comic without much of the acid that frequently flows in his standup routines. It\'s a half hour that\'s easy to take, and Carlin fans won\'t be disappointed.\"
David Hiltbrand of *People Magazine*, also gave a positive review of the show, saying: \"The sitcom's flavor is somewhat bland, with just a whiff of desperation about it

# Norton Bavant
**Norton Bavant** is a small village and civil parish in Wiltshire, England, 2 mi southeast of Warminster.
## Geography
The village is on the River Wylye and at the edge of Salisbury Plain. To the north lies Scratchbury and Cotley Hills Site of Special Scientific Interest, and the Iron Age hillfort of Scratchbury Camp.
The A36 road to Salisbury bypasses the village to the south, on the other side of the river. The earlier direct route of the road, just north of the village, is now the B3414.
The Wessex Main Line railway between Warminster and Salisbury, opened 1856, follows the river valley and crosses the parish to the north and east of the village. The local station at Heytesbury was closed in 1955.
## History
Domesday Book of 1086 recorded a settlement with 22 households at *Nortone*.
John Marius Wilson\'s *Imperial Gazetteer of England and Wales* (1870--1872) described Norton Bavant as follows:
> NORTON-BAVANT, a village and a parish in Warminster district, Wilts. The village stands on the river Wiley, adjacent to the Salisbury and Westbury railway, 1¼ mile N W of Heytesbury r. station, and 2¾ S E by E of Warminster. The parish includes a detached portion, separated from the main body by Warminster parish. Post-town, Warminster. Acres, 2,165. Real property, £3,549. Pop., 261. Houses, 61. The property is divided among a few. Norton House is a chief residence. The living is a vicarage in the diocese of Salisbury. Value, £250. Patron, the Lord Chancellor. The church was recently rebuilt. There are a parochial school, and charities £4.
Norton Bavant Manor was built in the late 17th century and is Grade II\* listed.
## Parish church {#parish_church}
A priest was mentioned at Norton in the mid-12th century. The present parish church of All Saints, which now stands in the grounds of Norton Bavant House, has a tower from the 14th and 15th centuries; the Benett chapel is also from the 14th. The body of the church was rebuilt in 1838--40 using limestone ashlar, on the footprint of the earlier church. There was further restoration in 1853 and 1894.
The five bells in the tower are said to be unringable. One is from the late 14th century while others are dated 1656, 1711 and 1894. A lychgate in timber with a tiled roof was erected in 1893.
In 1976 the parish was united with the parishes of Heytesbury with Tytherington and Knook, and Sutton Veny. The parish is now part of the Upper Wylye Valley group.
## Local government {#local_government}
Norton Bavant is considered to be too small to elect a parish council, and instead has a Parish Meeting, at which all electors for the parish are able to speak and vote. Local government services are provided by Wiltshire Council, which has its offices in Trowbridge. The village is represented in Parliament by the MP for South West Wiltshire, Andrew Murrison, and in Wiltshire Council by Christopher Newbury.
## Notable people {#notable_people}
- Etheldred Benett (1776--1845), later called \'The First Lady Geologist\', lived in the village; a memorial board commemorating her achievements is in the churchyard of All Saints Parish Church
- Sir John Jardine Paterson (1920--2000), Scottish businessman, lived at the Manor House in retirement
- Etheldreda Benett (1824--1913), the only surviving daughter of William Benett, who inherited the estate, and of Ellen `{{nee|Gore}}`{=mediawiki}, lived here as a child. In 1866 she founded the Society of the Sisters of Bethany, a religious order for women in the Anglican Communion, in London

# Gidan Rumfa
The **Gidan Rumfa**, sometimes called the **Gidan Sarki** (\"Emir\'s house\"), is the palace of the Emir of Kano. Located in the city of Kano, Kano State, Nigeria, it was originally constructed in the late 15th century, with later transformations and additions made up to the 20th century. Since the reign of Rumfa, it has continuously been the residence of the traditional authority in Kano and was retained by the Fulani jihadists who took over traditional authority in Kano in the early 19th century. It currently has an area of 33 acre.
## History
Gidan Rumfa was originally built in the late 15th century on the outskirts of the town of Kano. The new building extended the reach of the town and also led to the establishment of the Kurmi market.
## Architecture
The palace covers a space of about 33 acres and its open plan design is surrounded by walls up to 15 feet high. The structure is rectangular in shape and its landscape ecology can be divided into three classifications: open spaces, gardens and living quarters/built up areas. Structures within the living quarters and built up areas include the Kofar Kudu or Southern gate, offices, mosque, Soron ingila (English hall), royal courtrooms, a primary and secondary school and living quarters. The iconic Kofar Kudu gate was built by the Emir Abdullahi Maje Karofi in the second half of the 19th century.
## Today
Gidan Rumfa houses the Emir and his wives, children and aides. The resident population of the Emir\'s private quarters numbers up to 200, while more than a thousand individuals live within the structure. The space surrounding the structure is dominated by gardens

# Arsenal VG 70
The **Arsenal VG 70** was a single-seat monoplane research aircraft flown in France shortly after World War II to assist in the development of high-speed jet fighters. Lacking an indigenous turbojet engine, the aircraft was fitted with a German Junkers Jumo 004. Unlike most jet-powered aircraft of the period, the swept wing was wooden as was the tail structure. The under-powered VG 70 made its maiden flight in 1948, but only flew five times before the program was terminated the following year.
## Development and description {#development_and_description}
Jean Galtier, chief designer at Arsenal de l\'Aéronautique, decided to build a turbojet-powered research aircraft in late 1945. He wished to investigate the aerodynamics of swept wings at high speeds to take advantage of captured German data to better understand how they might impact future fighter designs. Its all-metal fuselage was derived from the VG-30 prewar series of piston-engined fighters and Galtier took advantage of the company\'s experience of wooden construction to build the wing and empennage out of wood. The leading edge of the shoulder-mounted wing was swept back at an angle of 43° and the wing itself was given a dihedral of 6°. Seven fuel tanks were housed in the two-spar wing and dive brakes were positioned on its upper surface. The main wheels of the tricycle landing gear retracted into the wings while the nose gear retracted into the lower part of the nose.
The Jumo 004 turbojet, captured from the Germans, had 8.8 kN of thrust. It was positioned in the aft fuselage, together with three additional fuel tanks, and used air provided by a prominent semi-circular ventral intake underneath the cockpit. Wind-tunnel testing showed that it was not as effective as had been hoped, although the airframe was deemed capable of reaching a speed of 900 km/h and Mach 0.9 in a shallow dive given enough thrust.
## Construction and flight testing {#construction_and_flight_testing}
Construction of the aircraft was completed in 1947 and it had begun taxiing tests in October, but wind-tunnel testing revealed some potential aerodynamic problems that delayed its first flight by over six months. It finally flew on 23 June 1948 and achieved a speed of 800 km/h despite its unreliable engine. The program was cancelled in early 1949 after only five flights as the engine\'s lack of thrust imposed tight limits on the types of test flying that it could do and Arsenal had refocused on the follow-on VG 90 carrier-based fighter.
## Variants
**VG 70**
: Research aircraft powered by a Jumo 004 turbojet, one built

# Pavlo Teteria
**Pavlo Teteria** (*Павло Тетеря*; *Paweł Morzkowski herbu Ślepowron*; c. 1620 -- 1671) was Hetman of Right-bank Ukraine (1663--1665). His real name is Pavlo Morzhkovsky. Before his hetmancy he served in a number of high positions under Bohdan Khmelnytsky, and Ivan Vyhovsky.
## Brief outlook {#brief_outlook}
When the Khmelnytsky Uprising broke out he served as a regimental secretary of Pereyaslav; shortly afterwards he was appointed the deputy of the general secretary. Later he assumed the post of the Pereyaslav colonel, while still continuing to act as deputy general secretary. He was one of the Ukrainian delegates that were sent to conduct the Treaty of Pereyaslav.
Teteria participated in the negotiations aimed at uniting Ukraine back into the Polish--Lithuanian Commonwealth. When a civil war between Right-bank Cossacks and Left-bank Cossacks broke out, he openly supported pro-Polish policies, and was elected Hetman in the Right-bank Ukraine in 1663.
He participated with the Poles in a campaign into Left-Bank Ukraine, but in 1665 he abdicated because of political and social unrests in Right-bank. Teteria fled to Poland, but eventually came into conflict with the Polish nobility and left for Turkey, where he died plotting an invasion of Poland.
## Biography
He was the son in law of hetman Bohdan Khmelnytsky, when he married his daughter Olena Khmelnytsky in 1660. Teteria was educated at the Kyivan Mohyla College and he was member of the Lviv Dormition Brotherhood. He joined the Cossack army when the Khmelnytsky Uprising broke out in 1648. He began his official service as a regimental secretary for the Pereyaslav regiment. Shortly after he became the deputy of the general secretary. He was part of the delegation that accompanied Tymofiy Khmelnytsky to Iaşi to marry Ruxandra the daughter of the Moldavian Voivode Vasile Lupu. In July 1653, Teteria assumed the position of colonel of Pereyaslav, while still maintaining the office of deputy general secretary.
In April 1654, Teteria and Samiilo Bohdanovych-Zarudny were part of the Ukrainian delegation sent to Moscow to conduct the Treaty of Pereyaslav with the Tsardom of Russia. This treaty placed the Cossack Hetmanate and the Zaporozhian Host under the protection of the Tsar. When Vyhovsky was proclaimed hetman, Teteria was appointed as the hetman\'s chancellor secretary. He participated in the negotiations of the Treaty of Hadiach, which would restore Ukraine back into the Commonwealth, as a third and autonomous state, under the ultimate sovereignty of the King of Poland. The treaty led to a civil war known as The Ruin, when he openly supported pro-Polish policy and pressured the young, and inexperienced Yuri Khmelnytsky to abdicate.
### Hetman
First at the officer\'s council in Chyhyryn in October 1662 and then the cossack council meeting in Chyhyryn on 2 January 1663 Teteria officially succeed Khmelnytsky as the Hetman of Ukraine. Once in power he had Cossack leaders executed and imprisoned, because he perceived them as possible rivals. Teteria had Vyhovsky, Ivan Bohun executed, and had Yuri Khmelnytsky imprisoned. Teteria followed a strong line of Polish policies, and was unwilling to forge an independent Cossack policy. In 1664 along with Jan II Casimir Vasa he led an invasion into Left-bank Ukraine. When the attack failed, Teteria returned to the Right-bank but Cossack-led peasant uprisings against his rule occurred because of the detested behaviors of him and his Polish allies to common cossacks, and peasants. In 1665 unable to cope with the social unrests, particularly the \"Drozd Uprising\", Teteria abdicated and fled to Poland.
In Poland he converted to Catholicism from Orthodoxy and was given high administrative posts in Polatsk. Eventually he got into disputes with Polish magnates and fell upon misfortune. Unable to gain any sufficient support from the Polish Sejm, he left for Adrianopolis, where he died plotting an invasion of Poland

## Recreation and tourism {#recreation_and_tourism}
### Green Country {#green_country}
\"Green Country\" is a popular term used in different scenarios to describe different aspects of the Greater Tulsa Region, but may also refer specifically to the official Tulsa MSA. Each usage of the term is derived from its official meaning as the tourism designation for all of Northeastern Oklahoma. Its name was devised in the 1960s by the Oklahoma Department of Tourism and Recreation as one of six travel destination regions within the state, but is the most historically significant of all of them, as the name\'s usage can be traced to the early part of the 20th century. While the Tulsa MSA only officially occupies a section of Green Country as it is defined by the Oklahoma Department of Transportation, the entire region is sometimes referred to as the Greater Tulsa Area. On the same accord, the term \"Green Country\" often applies to the immediate Tulsa urban area or the city of Tulsa proper, but neither of these are technically the proper use for the term.
### Attractions
The area has several lakes and state parks. Major lakes include Keystone, Skiatook, Fort Gibson, and Oologah. Popular state parks include Keystone Lake and Osage Hills.
The area contains two world-renowned museums: Gilcrease and Philbrook, both in Tulsa. Museums focusing on western heritage draw visitors, such as Woolaroc near Bartlesville and Will Rogers Memorial in Claremore.

# Jarlath Fallon
**Jarlath \"Ja\" Fallon** (born 1973) is a former Gaelic footballer who played for the Tuam Stars club and at senior level for the Galway county team. He is regarded as one of the finest players to come from Tuam since Seán Purcell and Frank Stockwell. He was an integral part of the Galway county football team from 1995 to 2005, winning All Stars footballer of the year in 1998.
Fallon was born in Tuam and played Gaelic football in primary school at St Patrick\'s and in secondary school with St Jarlath\'s College, both in Tuam.
He began his inter-county career with Galway in 1991, having already established himself with his local team Tuam Stars.
He became captain of the county team after Tuam Stars won the 1994 Galway Senior Football Championship.
He led Galway to the 1995 Connacht Senior Football Championship but lost out to the Peter Canavan-inspired Tyrone on a scoreline of 1-13 to 0-13 in the semi-finals of the All-Ireland Senior Football Championship. Galway failed to build on their success of that year in 1996 and 1997, but things turned around when John O\'Mahony was appointed manager in August 1997.
Galway won the 1998 All-Ireland SFC title, with Fallon playing a pivotal role in bringing the Sam Maguire Cup back to Galway for the first time since 1966, with notable individual performances in the Connacht SFC final replay against Roscommon, the semi-final against Derry and his second-half performance in the final against Kildare, in which Galway came from behind at half-time to win by 1-14 to 1-10. He deservedly won Footballer Of The Year that year. Galway failed to defend their title the following year after losing to fierce rivals Mayo in the Connacht SFC final at Tuam stadium.
Fallon sustained a cruciate ligament injury in a club game versus UCG in Caherlistrane in 2000. His loss was felt by the Galway team against Kerry in the All-Ireland SFC final that year, which Kerry won.
Fallon returned to the Galway set-up in 2001 and, made an impact as Galway, despite losing to Roscommon in the Connacht SFC second round, reached the All-Ireland SFC final for the third time in four years, a game in which they outclassed Meath on a scoreline of 0-17 to 0-08. Galway reached the quarter-final stage of the 2002 All-Ireland SFC but lost to Kerry. In 2003, they reached the same stage again but lost to Donegal after a replay.
After the game, Fallon announced his retirement from inter-county football. In 2004, newly appointed county manager Peter Ford, chose Fallon as one of his three selectors on the Galway backroom staff.
In 2006, Fallon\'s fine form for Tuam Stars prompted him to come out of Inter-County retirement and play for Galway again. However, his fairytale return was short-lived, as he lasted less than 20 minutes in Galway\'s 5th-round defeat to Westmeath, suffering a broken-collarbone.
After a disappointing Championship season for Galway in 2007, Ja decided to retire from Inter-county football for the final time, to allow younger players to make a name for themselves. He continues to play club football with Tuam Stars.
In March 2013, he was profiled on the TG4 television programme *Laochra Gael*.
In May 2020, the *Irish Independent* named Fallon as one of the \"dozens of brilliant players\" who narrowly missed selection for its \"Top 20 footballers in Ireland over the past 50 years\"

# Christus. Mysterium in a Prelude and Three Oratorios
**Christus: Ein Mysterium in einem Vorspiele und drei Oratorien** is a musical composition by Felix Draeseke consisting of a prelude and three oratorios completed in September 1899.
## History
It was Felix Draeseke\'s most impressive accomplishment and took him over thirty years to prepare and five years to compose. It spans opus numbers 70-73. Beginning as early as the 1860s, Draeseke and his brother-in-law, the Reverend Adolf Schollmeyer, began gathering ideas for the project. According to the composer\'s own program notes:
: *The words of the piece have been taken exclusively from the Holy Scriptures\....Individual alterations of minor significance had to be converted to dramatic speech frequently; things not found in the bible only appear very rarely.*
*Christus* was premiered in Berlin in 1912, with Bruno Kittel conducting. Later that same year, Kittel conducted a second full performance in Dresden; these were the work\'s only full performances in Draeseke\'s lifetime. In 1990 and 1991 there have been the next two complete performances in Speyer and Heilbronn, which were a joint-venture of Udo-R. Follert in Speyer, and Hermann Rau in Heilbronn. These performances have been recorded and a CD-Edition was published by Bayer Records.
The suite has been performed by Felix Friedrich, organist from Altenberg, Germany since 1994 (Braunschweig St. Ulrici, Munich St. Bonifaz) and America (Farmington Hills, Michigan and Northville, Michigan). In 1995, at the 9th anniversary of the International Draeseke Society, he played them in the town church of Coburg.
## Structure
Christus is composed of four separate sections:
- Prelude - The Birth and Death of the Lord
- First Oratorio - The manifestation of the Christ
- Second Oratorio - Christ the Prophet
- Third Oratorio - Death and Triumph of the Lord
Though the work is composed of three oratorios, it bears more resemblance to Wagner\'s *Ring Cycle* than to traditional oratorio. Draeseke intended for it to fit into the category of Wagner\'s \"Musikdrama,\" and in fact he used leitmotif throughout the work. Because of its length, a performance of *Christus* spans three evenings. The work was only performed twice in its entirety and, unlike Wagner\'s *Ring Cycle*, Draeseke preferred that his work be performed in a church. Draeseke wrote in program notes following the *Christus* premiere,
> \"The composer never intended his work to be performed on the stage. It would be contrary to his intentions\....A representation in the church would always be preferable to that in the concertroom.\"
Unlike traditional oratorio, the work contains no narrator, no Evangelist, and no recitative. Instead, a chorus of 150-200 members serves to advance the plot

# Elias Zoghby
**Elias Zoghby** (9 January 1912 -- 16 January 2008) was an Egyptian-born Lebanese Catholic prelate who served as Archbishop of Baalbek in the Melkite Greek Catholic Church from 1968 to 1988. He was known as a leading advocate of Catholic--Orthodox ecumenism. He is best known for his ecumenical interventions during the Second Vatican Council and for his 1995 Profession of Faith, known as the Zoghby Initiative, which attempted to re-establish communion between the Melkite Greek Catholic Church and the Eastern Orthodox Church.
Zoghby\'s views on topics such as Catholic--Orthodox \"double communion\" and dissolution of marriage were controversial. Critics labeled him the *enfant terrible* of his church, while supporters lauded him as an energetic visionary who sought to re-unite the Eastern Churches.
## Biography
### Early life and ministry in Egypt {#early_life_and_ministry_in_egypt}
Elias Zoghby was born on 9 January 1912 in Cairo. His mother, Hanne Ishak Yared, was a Melkite Greek Catholic and his father, Abdallah Mikail Zoghby, was an Antiochian Orthodox convert and former Maronite Catholic. The couple had recently emigrated from Lebanon and settled in Cairo\'s Arb-el-Guenena neighborhood. The area had a Melkite church nearby which his parents attended. Elias and his siblings were baptized into the Melkite faith and raised in a devout household, attending liturgy daily, reading the bible together as a family and praying the Office every afternoon.
Zoghby related in *Memoires* that he first received a vocational call at age sixteen. With his parents\' blessing he left for seminary in the summer of 1928, going to Jerusalem to study with the White Fathers at the Melkite seminary of Saint Anne. He was ordained a priest at Saint Anne Melkite Basilica in Jerusalem on 20 July 1936, following which he was appointed a professor of Arabic Literature and Mathematics at the seminary. He later returned to Cairo as a parish priest.
While in Egypt, Zoghby considered the issues of ecumenism and the schism between the Melkite Catholic and Antiochian Orthodox Churches. As he began to study both the historical roots of the separation and the modern divisions of Middle Eastern churches he came to the opinion that the schism was unjustifiable. He also began to question the domination of the so-called Uniate churches by the See of Rome. Zoghby, along with other Melkite priests in Egypt such as George Hakim and Joseph Tawil, were influenced by Father Oreste Karame, who advocated the need for the Melkite Church to return to its proper traditions and work for communion with the Orthodox Church.
In 1951 he was elevated to archimandrite while serving in Alexandria. While there he was threatened with arrest for preventing the execution of a sentence passed by a Sharia tribunal. On 27 August 1954 he was named auxiliary bishop of Antioch; then, on 2 September 1954, he was appointed Titular Archbishop of Nubia. Zoghby was formally consecrated bishop on 21 November 1954, when he was elevated to Patriarchal Vicar for the See of Alexandria, Cairo and the Sudan.
As the leader of the Melkite church in Egypt Zoghby was a vocal proponent of rights for Christians, and opposed the limitations placed on them by that country\'s Law of Personal Statutes. The Nasser regime imprisoned him on 20 December 1954, for his public opposition to the statutes. Released shortly afterwards, he continued to serve as patriarchal vicar in Egypt.

## Biography
### Vatican II and Baalbek {#vatican_ii_and_baalbek}
Zoghby was one of the most active eastern Catholic bishops to participate at the Second Vatican Council, where he offered eleven interventions. While some of the interventions were pastoral in nature, a good number were ecumenical, focusing on the Eastern churches and their relationship with Western Christianity. Zoghby\'s efforts helped shape the formation of *Orientalium Ecclesiarum*, although, to his disappointment, in his view it did not adequately address the needs of the Eastern Catholic Churches or bridge the gulf between Orthodoxy and Catholicism. While *Orientalium Ecclesiarum* encouraged Eastern Catholics to uphold their traditions and values, Zoghby felt that it \"turn\[ed\] a blind eye\" to true intercommunion (*communicatio in sacris*).
Following the Council he opposed the ascension to the cardinalate of Melkite Patriarch Maximos IV Sayegh, stating that the leader of an Eastern Catholic church should not hold a subordinate Latin-rite office. In protest, Zohgby resigned his position as patriarchal vicar of Alexandria. Maximos IV died in 1967; his successor, Maximos V Hakim, was a friend of Zoghby\'s and a fellow Egyptian. In August 1968 the Melkite Synod elected Zoghby archbishop of Baalbek to replace the recently deceased eparch, Joseph Malouf. Installed as archbishop there on 9 September 1968, he led the small eparchy during the Lebanese Civil War. In 1982 he was kidnapped by pro-Iranian terrorists.
Zoghby retired on 24 October 1988, at age 76. He remained an active proponent of ecumenism following his retirement, urging the reunification of the Melkite Greek Catholic Church and the Antiochian Orthodox Church. He died on 16 January 2008 in Lebanon; his funeral was held on 19 January at St. Paul Basilica in Harissa.
## Ecumenism and the Zoghby Initiative {#ecumenism_and_the_zoghby_initiative}
Zoghby\'s ecumenical initiatives gained visibility in May 1974 with the exchange of visits between the Melkite Catholic and the Antiochian Orthodox synods, which met simultaneously in Lebanon.
During the visit of the Melkite Catholic delegation to the Orthodox synod Zoghby drew attention to the fact that the original causes of separation between the groups had ceased to exist and the way was open for the \"creation by stages of a real union between the two Churches, without waiting for the union of the Church of Rome and the Orthodox Churches.\"
Afterwards, the churches agreed to form separate commissions for dialogue. Zogby outlined his views on the topic in his book *Ecumenical Reflections*, which was characterized by Vsevolod, the Orthodox Bishop of Scopelos, as an invitation \"to ecumenical metanoia \... to recognize that where there is the fundamental common faith, held alike by Catholics and Orthodox, there is no defensible impediment to Eucharistic Communion.\"

## Views on dissolution of marriage {#views_on_dissolution_of_marriage}
While attending Vatican II Zoghby spoke to the Council on 29 September 1965, about the trauma of the innocent spouse in cases of adultery. Zoghby suggested a solution which considers adultery and abandonment as causes for the dissolution of marriage:
: \"We know how much the Fathers of the Eastern Church tried to dissuade widowers and widows from a second marriage, thus following the Apostle\'s advice, but they have never wished to deprive the innocent spouse who has been unjustly abandoned of the right to remarry. This tradition, preserved in the East, and which was never reproved during the ten centuries of union, could be accepted again and adopted by Catholics. Progress in patristic studies has indeed brought to the fore the doctrine of the Eastern Fathers who were no less qualified exegetes or moralists than the Western ones.\"
The following month, Melkite Patriarch Maximos IV declared that, while \"Archbishop Zoghby, like all Fathers of the council, enjoys full freedom to say what he thinks \... \[Zoghby\] speaks only for himself personally. With respect to the heart of the problem, the Church must hold fast to the indissolubility of marriage.\"

The 2/5th Armoured Regiment was formed on 26 July 1941 as part of the 1st Armoured Brigade of the 1st Armoured Division. Under the command of Lieutenant Colonel F.D Sandilands, the regiment was initially located at Grovely near Brisbane, Queensland, but joined the rest of the 1st Armoured Brigade at Greta, New South Wales, in October.
Following the outbreak of the Pacific War the 2/5th Armoured Regiment was equipped with Universal Carriers to train as a light armoured unit. The regiment was re-equipped with 52 M3 Grant medium tanks in April 1942, and moved to Edgeroi, New South Wales, in August to conduct large-scale exercises with the rest of the 1st Armoured Division. While the regiment was ordered to prepare for deployment to New Guinea in August or September 1942, it was replaced by the 2/6th Armoured Regiment which was equipped with lighter M3 Stuart tanks which were better suited to New Guinea\'s terrain.
In early 1943 the 2/5th Armoured Regiment moved to Western Australia with the rest of the 1st Armoured Division and was based near Geraldton. The regiment moved south to Moora in July 1943 and remained part of the independent 1st Armoured Brigade Group upon the 1st Armoured Division\'s disbandment in September. The 2/5th Armoured Regiment was transferred to the 4th Armoured Brigade in March 1944 and moved to Southport, Queensland to train for possible deployment overseas. Although the regiment was initially selected to support the 7th Division during the liberation of Balikpapan in July 1945 it was replaced by the Matilda II-equipped 1st Armoured Regiment shortly before it would have embarked for the operation. Later they were earmarked for deployment as part of Operation Zipper, but the war ended before the operation was commenced. The 2/5th Armoured Regiment was disbanded in September 1945.

# David Brant
**Dave Brant** is a retired career Naval Criminal Investigative Service (NCIS) special agent and executive. He served in the NCIS from 1977 to 2005, leading the agency as its director from 1997 until his retirement in December 2005.
## Background and education {#background_and_education}
Brant received his undergraduate education at Bradley University and a master\'s degree from Indiana State University. During his time at NCIS, he graduated from the Senior Executive Course at the John F. Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University.
Before joining NCIS, Brant was a police officer with the Miami-Dade Police Department.
## Career in law enforcement {#career_in_law_enforcement}
Brant spent thirty years working in law enforcement, 28 of them at the NCIS, the last 8 years as its director.
Senator John Warner, who was himself a former Secretary of the Navy, read a tribute to Brant into the Senate record, when Brant retired.
### Accusations of torture at Guantanamo {#accusations_of_torture_at_guantanamo}
A twenty-page statement issued on July 7, 2004, describes a series of high-level meetings among the United States Department of the Navy\'s most senior lawyers, that were triggered by reports, from Brant, that the captives being held in the Guantanamo Bay Naval Base were being subjected to questionable interrogation techniques.
Alberto J. Mora\'s statement contained several quotations from Brant, about Brant\'s reluctance for the NCIS to be involved with the questionable interrogation techniques: `{{quotation|"Director Brant emphasized that NCIS would not engage in abusive treatment even if ordered to and did not wish to be even indirectly associated with a facility that engaged in such practices."}}`{=mediawiki}
In 2011 Brant provided a video testimonial in which he voiced his respect for Mora, his immediate superior, for the principled stand he took as soon as Brant told him about the abuse of the individuals being held in Guantanamo. Brant said Mora didn\'t seem to even hesitate over whether he should a principled stand to his own superiors. Brant explicitly said he realized that Mora was putting his job on the line with his stand.
## Television appearance {#television_appearance}
David Brant made a brief cameo appearance on the CBS drama *NCIS* playing a Special Agent of the same name in the episode \"Frame Up\" in Season 3. This episode aired on November 22, 2005 one month before his retirement. He is asked by the character Leroy Jethro Gibbs (Mark Harmon) \"I heard you were quitting\" to which Brant responds \"I like to refer to it as a lateral move into the recreational sector\...Jethro\" to which Gibbs explains to Mossad liaison officer Ziva David (Cote de Pablo) that it \"\...mostly means fishing and hitting a golf ball\".
## Post law-enforcement career {#post_law_enforcement_career}
After he left NCIS Brant worked as a security expert for the accounting firms Deloitte Consulting and BDO. While at those firms he was a dedicated fund-raiser for the National Law Officers Memorial Fund.
He would eventually leave consulting for accountants to become the executive director of the National Law Enforcement Museum

# Stabat Mater (Poulenc)
**Stabat Mater**, FP 148, is a musical setting of the Stabat Mater sequence composed by Francis Poulenc in 1950.
## Background
Poulenc wrote the piece in response to the death of his friend, artist Christian Bérard; he considered writing a Requiem for Bérard, but, after returning to the shrine of the Black Virgin of Rocamadour, he selected the medieval Stabat Mater text. Poulenc\'s setting, scored for soprano solo, mixed chorus, and orchestra, premiered on the 13th of June 1951 at the Strasbourg Festival. It was well received throughout Europe and in the United States where it won the New York Critic\'s Circle Award for Best Choral Work of the year.
## Structure
The Stabat Mater is divided into twelve movements, which vary dramatically in character from somber to light and frivolous, even on the most serious of texts. All the movements, though, are relatively brief; Robert Shaw\'s Telarc recording runs just under 30 minutes, with the longest movement taking just over four minutes.
1. **Stabat mater dolorosa** (Très calme)
2. **Cujus animam gementem** (Allegro molto---Très violent)
3. **O quam tristis** (Très lent)
4. **Quae moerebat** (Andantino)
5. **Quis est homo** (Allegro molto---Prestissimo)
6. **Vidit suum** (Andante)
7. **Eja mater** (Allegro)
8. **Fac ut ardeat** (Maestoso)
9. **Sancta mater** (Moderato---Allegretto)
10. **Fac ut portem** (To. de Sarabande)
11. **Inflammatus et accensus** (Animé et très rythmé)
12. **Quando corpus** (Très calme)
The soprano soloist appears in only three movements: Vidit suum, Fac ut portem, and Quando corpus. The chorus appears largely a cappella in two others, O quam tristis and Fac ut ardeat, although the orchestra is not fully silent in either.
## Instrumentation
- Piccolo, 2 flutes, 2 oboes, English horn, 2 clarinets (B♭), bass clarinet, 3 bassoons
- 4 French horns, 3 trumpets (C), 3 trombones, tuba
- Timpani, 2 Harps
- Strings
- Soprano solo, SATBarB Chorus (divisi)

# Tore Holm
**Tore Anton Holm** (25 November 1896 -- 15 November 1977) was a Swedish yacht designer, boatbuilder, and sailor who competed in the 1920, 1928, 1932, 1936 and 1948 Summer Olympics.
## Sailing career {#sailing_career}
He started out in 1920 as a crew member on the Swedish boat *Sif*, where he won the gold medal in the 40 m^2^ class and eight years later he conquered the bronze medal, as a crew member on the *Sylvia* in the 8 metre class. In 1932 he won his second gold medal, this time being on the crew of the *Bissbi*, in the 6 metre class. At the Olympic Games in Berlin, 1936, he did not win a medal after finishing fourth in the 8 metre class competition. He finished his Olympic career in 1948 on the 6 metre class with his fourth medal, and second bronze, as part of the crew on the *Ali Baba II*.
## Yacht designer {#yacht_designer}
In the early 1920s, the Holm boatyard at Gamleby designed and built a number of boats in the Skerry Cruiser (or Square Metre Rule) Class. In the later 1920s and 1930s several more designs came to fruition built to the International or Metre Rule, particularly in the 6m, 8m and 10m classes.
### Posthumous build of J-class yacht {#posthumous_build_of_j_class_yacht}
In 2014 it was reported that a new J-Class hull, *Svea*, was under construction at the Freddie Bloemsma Aluminiumbouw shipyard in the Netherlands to an original design by Tore Holm dating from 1937. In 2015 it was reported that outfitting would be undertaken at the Vitters Shipyard. She competed briefly in the 2017 J-Class regatta at Bermuda before her headstay furler broke. During racing in the Superyacht Challenge Antigua in 2020 she was in collision with fellow J-class competitor *Topaz*

# Light of Love
***Light of Love*** is a US-only album released by British rock band T. Rex in 1974. It is composed of 3 tracks previously released in the UK on the album *Zinc Alloy and the Hidden Riders of Tomorrow*, together with 8 songs recorded in the Spring of 1974 at Music Recorders Inc. Studios in Hollywood which would later appear on the album *Bolan\'s Zip Gun*. The album was engineered by Gary Ulmer and, in the absence of Tony Visconti (who had left T. Rex production duties), was produced by Marc Bolan himself. The album marked the first time that a T. Rex album had been produced without Tony Visconti and also marked Bolan\'s debut in this role. \"Till Dawn\", was re-recorded for *Bolan\'s Zip Gun* with Bolan at the controls.
The newly recorded songs were licensed by Neil Bogart who had just set up his Casablanca Records label, together with \"Teenage Dream\", \"Explosive Mouth\" and \"Venus Loon\" from the *Zinc Alloy and the Hidden Riders of Tomorrow* album. Despite considerable publicity and a US tour, *Light of Love* did not chart in the US. The reasons are disputed, but it permanently ended Bolan\'s attempts to gain stardom in the United States\' pop market. By this point, Bolan\'s USA record label Reprise Records had dropped him and he had much difficulty finding a new label to sign him, but eventually signed to Casablanca Records. However, Casablanca was going bankrupt around the time and he couldn\'t find a label to sign him, resulting in this being the last album of the band\'s to be released in the US. After its failure he concentrated on the UK again (where his career was to experience a resurgence), the new tracks being re-used for the next UK album *Bolan\'s Zip Gun*. UK import sales of the *Light of Love* album may well have impacted the subsequent relative lack of success of *Bolan\'s Zip Gun*.
*Light of Love* was eventually released on CD in the UK in 1995 as part of Edsel Records extensive T. Rex reissue campaign (EDCD 413). Live tracks from the US tour, recorded at the Agora Club in Cleveland, Ohio on 11 November 1974, were released as the bonus disc of the *Live 1977* compilation album.

# Romulus of Genoa
**Romulus** (or **Remo**) **of Genoa** (*Romolo*; *Reumo(l)o*) was an early Bishop of Genoa, around the time of Syrus. His dates are uncertain: since Jacobus de Voragine traditional lists compiled from local liturgies generally place his bishopric fourth in a largely legendary list. He fled from Genoa and never returned He died in the cave he inhabited at Villa Matutiae, a town on the Italian Riviera which later adopted his name, becoming San Remo (from 15th century until the first half of the 20th century), and later Sanremo.
## Veneration
In 876 the bishop Sabbatinus brought his remains to Genoa, to the church of San Siro, where a new structure was consecrated in 1023.
Since he was invoked in defence of Villa Matutiæ from its inhabitants during enemy attack, Romulus is depicted with episcopal dress and a sword in hand.
The feast day of Saint Romulus had been kept on October 13, the traditional date of his death, as well as on December 22. In the Archdiocese of Genoa his feast day is now celebrated on November 6, together with two more of its early bishops: Valentine of Genoa and Felix of Genoa

# Head Phones President
**Head Phones President** (stylized in all caps) is a Japanese metal band formed in Tokyo in 1999. Their sound has been described as alternative metal, progressive metal, avant-garde metal, and nu metal.
They have played various music festivals, including Loud Park 08, Taste of Chaos, Metal Female Voices Fest, sharing the stage with the likes of Slipknot, Avenged Sevenfold, Story of the Year, and In This Moment. They have also played in the U.S., Sweden, Australia, neighboring Asian countries, and South America.
## History
After vocalist Anza Ohyama ceased performing in *Sailor Moon* musicals in 1998, she embarked on a solo career for almost two years. Influenced by female rock artists of the time such as Nanase Aikawa, she abandoned her idol image and sang pop rock music. However, after hearing hide\'s song \"Pink Spider\", she desired to write songs about dark and negative things, but which show people how to aim for the light. Leaving her talent agency, Anza teamed up with guitarist Hiro, who previously helped her in her solo career, and his brother Mar. With a desire to play heavier music, they formed the band Deep Last Blue. They found bassist Kawady and drummer Okaji and changed their name to Head Phones President before releasing their first single, \"Escapism\", in 2000. Bassist Kawady left soon after and was replaced by Take the following year.
Playing at small venues all over Japan, they started to gain more popularity. In 2002, Head Phones President released the EP *ID*, after which Take left due to family reasons and was replaced by Narumi. A fan of the band, Narumi, who was formerly a guitarist, had often found himself employed as a staff member by the group before joining. That year, Head Phones President had their first international tour, including a stop in New York City.
Head Phones President\'s first album *Vary* was released in late 2003, after which the band returned to America for another short tour and started releasing CDs in the United States. Okaji left the band in October 2004, desiring to make his own music. They recruited support drummer Batch in January 2005 (he was made an official member on February 1, 2009). They continued to tour Japan, taking intermittent breaks to allow Anza to work on her solo career.
Head Phones President released their first DVD, *Toy\'s Box*, in August 2006. The band desired to tour Europe, and in February 2007, they went to Sweden for two performances. In November, they performed at the Pacific Media Expo in Los Angeles, California. Their second full-length album *Folie a Deux* was released on December 12.
In July 2008, they played the Formoz Music Festival in Taipei, Taiwan, and would return to the city again in July 2009. On October 7, 2009, the mini album *Prodigium* was released on the Spiritual Beast label, and was mastered at West Side Music by Alan Douches (Mastodon, The Agonist).
On September 3, 2010, they released the self-cover album *Pobl Lliw*, which includes rearranged versions of old songs as well as some all new tracks. On September 19, 2010, Head Phones President performed at D\'erlanger\'s Abstinence\'s Door #005 with defspiral and Girugamesh. The concert was streamed worldwide live on Ustream.tv. The band returned to New York City to play three shows as part of Frank Wood\'s 10 Days of Wood music event in November. On November 24, 2010, the band announced that guitarist Mar had resigned from the band due to unspecified personal reasons. The band publicly wished him well and stated that they would continue activities without him.
On April 2, 2012, Head Phones President released \"Purge the World\", a memorial single for their US tour which began on April 6. Their third full-length album *Stand in the World* was released on June 6, 2012. In December 2013, the band went on a four date tour of China that took them to Hong Kong, Guangzhou, Beijing, and Shanghai.
Head Phones President released their fourth album *Disillusion* on August 6, 2014. They also performed at Yoko Fest The Final on September 12 in memory of United\'s deceased bassist and leader and at Belgium\'s Metal Female Voices Fest on October 17 and 19, 2014. The band released their first compilation album *Alteration* on November 18, 2015, which also includes six remixes, in celebration of the 15th anniversary of their first EP.
The music of Head Phones President was the genesis of the rock musical *Stand in the World,* written and directed by Shohei Hayashi, which ran at the Tokyo Arts Center from June 11--13, 2016. The band performed during the show which starred Erika Yamakawa, Manabu Oda, and Hikari Ono.
Their fifth studio album, *Realize*, was released on May 17, 2017. *Respawn* followed two years later on July 24, 2019. *In the Abyss*, their seventh album, was released on July 10, 2024.
Head Phones President are scheduled to perform in Brazil at SANA in Fortaleza in January 2025; and in Spain at the Rock Imperium Festival in June 2025.
## Musical style {#musical_style}
The band has described their music as \"negative\" due to their emotional lyrics that stem from traumatic experiences, but believe the music expresses their struggles in a hopeful manner. For example, the song \"Alien Blood\" represents Anza\'s troubles growing up in Japan as mixed race; \"I had problems with other students. People would try to burn my house\". She writes all of the lyrics, but Narumi helps translate them into English. Anza has stated that she wanted to be the female version of hide, an influence that inspired her to express herself in a way that she could not in the pop music she used to make before Head Phones President. Anza and Narumi like nu metal from the 2000s, such as Korn and Limp Bizkit, while Hiro prefers older metal from Los Angeles. In addition to the bands Nirvana and Boøwy, the members have also cited non-musical influences such as actress Minako Honda, mafia films, and director Martin Scorsese.

# Ages of You
\"**Ages of You**\" is a song by the band R.E.M. from their album *Dead Letter Office*. It was one of the early songs the group wrote.
## Song information {#song_information}
The song rose from another early R.E.M. song \"Burning Down.\" According to guitarist Peter Buck, as recounted on the *Dead Letter Office* liner notes: \"When we got tired of \[\'Burning Down\'\], we kept the two pieces that we liked and rewrote the rest to come up with \'Ages of You\'. We got tired of that one, also.\"
It was intended to be a track on the band\'s EP *Chronic Town*, but producer Mitch Easter felt it let down the track list---\"Gardening at Night\", \"Carnival of Sorts (Box Cars)\", \"1,000,000\", and \"Stumble\". Easter felt that the song \"Wolves, Lower\" was a better song in the context of the EP.
The song was re-recorded during sessions for the band\'s 1984 album *Reckoning*, but was left off the album and later relegated to B-side status, appearing on the 7- and 12-inch versions of the single \"Wendell Gee\" in 1985, remixed by engineer Steve Fjelstad (as noted on the *Dead Letter Office* liner notes.)
Both \"Ages of You\" and its \"companion piece\" (as Buck called it), \"Burning Down\" (also remixed by Fjelstad), were featured on the aforementioned *Dead Letter Office* B-side compilation album in 1987. The ending of the *Dead Letter Office* version differs slightly from the original 7\" version, editing the applause into the track at the end. A live version recorded at the Paradise Theater in Boston, Massachusetts on July 13, 1983, originally released on the compilation album *Live! for Life* can be found on the second disc in the special collector\'s edition version of *And I Feel Fine: The Best of the I.R.S. Years*, a 2006 compilation of the band\'s I.R.S. Records work.

# Polysulfane
A **polysulfane** is a chemical compound of formula `{{chem2|H2S_{''n''}|auto=1}}`{=mediawiki}, where *n* \> 1 (although disulfane (`{{chem2|H2S2}}`{=mediawiki}) is sometimes excluded). Compounds containing 2 -- 8 sulfur atoms have been isolated, longer chain compounds have been detected, but only in solution. `{{chem2|H2S2}}`{=mediawiki} is colourless, higher members are yellow with the colour increasing with the sulfur content. In the chemical literature the term polysulfanes is sometimes used for compounds containing `{{chem2|\s(S)_{''n''}\s}}`{=mediawiki}, e.g. organic polysulfanes `{{chem2|R^{1}\s(S)_{''n''}\sR^{2}|}}`{=mediawiki}.
## Structures
Polysulfanes consist of unbranched chains of sulfur atoms terminated with hydrogen atoms. The branched isomer of tetrasulfane `{{chem2|H2S4}}`{=mediawiki}, in which the fourth sulfur is bonded to the central sulfur, would be described as trithiosulfurous acid, `{{chem2|S\dS(\sSH)2}}`{=mediawiki}. Computations suggests that it is less stable than the linear isomer `{{chem2|HS\sS\sS\sSH}}`{=mediawiki}. The S-S-S angles approach 90° in trisulfane `{{chem2|H2S3}}`{=mediawiki} and higher polysulfanes.
## Reactions and properties {#reactions_and_properties}
Polysulfanes can easily be oxidised, and are thermodynamically unstable with respect to decomposition (disproportionation) readily to `{{chem2|H2S}}`{=mediawiki} and sulfur:
: (in this chemical reaction, `{{chem2|S8}}`{=mediawiki} is *cyclo*-octasulfur, one of the allotropes of sulfur)
This decomposition reaction is catalyzed by alkali. To suppress this behavior, containers for polysulfanes are often pretreated with acid to remove traces of alkali.
In contrast to the thermodynamic instability of polysulfates, polysulfide anions form spontaneously by treatment of `{{chem2|S(2-)}}`{=mediawiki} with elemental sulfur:
:
Beyond `{{chem2|H2S}}`{=mediawiki} and `{{chem2|H2S2}}`{=mediawiki}, many higher polysulfanes `{{chem2|H2S_{''n''}|}}`{=mediawiki} (*n* = 3 -- 8) are known. They have unbranched sulfur chains. Starting with disulfane `{{chem2|H2S2}}`{=mediawiki}, all known polysulfanes are liquids at room temperature. The density, boiling point and viscosity correlate with chain length. Physical properties of polysulfanes are given in the table below.
Chemical formula Name Density at 20 °C (g/cm^3^) Vapour pressure Extrapolated boiling point

`{{chem2|H2S}}`{=mediawiki} Sulfane 1.363 g/dm^3^ (gas) 1740 (kPa, 21 °C) (gas)
`{{chem2|H2S2}}`{=mediawiki} Disulfane 1.334
`{{chem2|H2S3}}`{=mediawiki} Trisulfane 1.491
Tetrasulfane 1.582
Pentasulfane 1.644
Hexasulfane 1.688 ? ?
Heptasulfane 1.721 ? ?
Octasulfane 1.747 ? ?
They also react with sulfite and cyanide producing thiosulfate and thiocyanate respectively.
Polysulfanes can be made from polysulfides by pouring a solution of a polysulfide salt into cooled concentrated hydrochloric acid. A mixture of metastable polysulfanes separates as a yellow oil, from which individual compounds may be separated by fractional distillation

# Cape Bougainville
**Cape Bougainville** is the second-most northerly point on East Falkland, Falkland Islands, after Cape Dolphin, and is the second-most northerly point of the two main islands, East and West Falkland. Many of the smaller islands, such as the Jason Islands, are further north.
The name (like Port Louis) comes from the French navigator Louis de Bougainville, who established the first settlement in the archipelago in the 1760s

# Willis Roberts
**Willis Augusto Roberts** (born June 19, 1975) is an American former pitcher in Major League Baseball, born in San Cristobal, Dominican Republic. He batted and threw right-handed.
## Career
Roberts was signed by the Detroit Tigers as an amateur free agent in 1992. He remained with the Tigers organization from 1992 to 1999. He made it to the major leagues in 1999 and played for the Detroit Tigers, Cincinnati Reds, Baltimore Orioles and Pittsburgh Pirates until 2004.
Roberts made his major league debut on July 2, 1999, with the Detroit Tigers against the Minnesota Twins at Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome with 12,033 people attending the game. Roberts relieved Will Brunson in the sixth inning, pitching one and one-third innings. The Tigers lost the game 11--4.
Roberts was released by the Tigers on February 1, 2000, and immediately joined the Cincinnati Reds as a free agent. Roberts was granted free agency on October 18 and signed with the Orioles on November 16. In the `{{mlby|2002}}`{=mediawiki} baseball season, Roberts was most successful in limiting home runs, only allowing five home runs in 75 innings. His home run rate was roughly one home run allowed for every eighteen innings pitched, or 0.6 home runs per nine innings. Roberts played three seasons for the Orioles before being granted free agency on October 17, 2003. On January 20, 2004, Roberts signed with the Pittsburgh Pirates as a free agent. He played his final baseball game with the Pittsburgh Pirates on August 13, 2004, retiring just seven days later. The New York Mets brought Roberts in on a minor league deal prior to the 2005 season, but he did not play for them

# Gory Blister
**Gory Blister** is an Italian technical death metal band from Milan, formed in 1991. Their lyrical themes range from psychology to modern literature/poetry and outer space.
## History
The band was formed in 1991 and after two demos, \"Spoilt By Greed\" in 1991 and \"Hanging Down the Sounds\" in 1993, they released their first EP, *Cognitive Sinergy* in 1997. In 1999, they self-released, *Art Bleeds*. By 2004, the line-up consisted of the vocalist Adry Bellant, drummer Joe Laviola, bass guitarist Fredrick and guitarist Raff. In October 2004, the band was requested by AreaDeath Productions to donate their cover version of \"1000 Eyes\" to a Chinese Death tribute album *Unforgotten Past -- A Tribute to Chuck Schuldiner*. In January 2005, they signed to Mascot Records of Holland. In early 2006, *Skymorphosis*, was released by Mascot Records and in January 2007, Bellant left the band and was replaced by Clode. In February, they toured with Amoral in Italy. Their third`{{when|date=January 2013}}`{=mediawiki} album, *Graveyard of Angels*, with the vocalist Domenico Roviello, was released on April 6, 2009, by Mascot Records. After touring Italy to promote the Graveyard album, Gory Blister began writing new songs. Guitarist / vocalist Karl Sanders from U.S. death metal band Nile joined the band to sing as a guest vocalist on two tracks for this fourth album. In April 2012 Gory Blister released via BeckerTeam Records, a division of Scarlet Records, their fourth album titled *Earth-Sick*, with a new singer named John. The new work contains 10 new songs of pure, and technical, brutal, death metal. The band played several gigs in Italy to promote *Earth-Sick* as headliner and supporting acts like Entombed, Sinister, Obituary. The band released the fifth album of their metal career; *The Fifth Fury* in 2014.
In 2023, Gory Blister completed their latest album, Reborn from Hatred, with a new production team and an emphasis on the groove. The writing process was more meticulous with this record, each riff and drum-fill adapted and readapted for the purpose of artistic complexity and fan appeal. The warm guitar sound reflects potent mid-frequency rather than electronic gadgetry. Raff\'s custom-made axe consists of a body in Okume (a lighter mahogany), Seymour Duncan Black Winter pickups and tuning in Drop C amalgamate, plugged directly into an EVH 5150 Iconic amp and Marshall cabinet. The album was released by Eclipse Records on September 8, 2023.
