# Ghost Hole
The **Ghost Hole** was a horror-themed dark ride on Coney Island operated by 12th Street Amusements, a division of Li\'l Sassy Anne, Inc. In 2021, the ride was removed and replaced by an expansion of Deno\'s Wonder Wheel Amusement Park, featuring a Vekoma suspended coaster named the Phoenix, and a kiddie coaster from SBF Visa in 2021.
In its heyday, the exterior of the ride was painted in graffiti-style imagery and two animated figures, a devil stirring a pot and a large growling demon. At one time, a morass of three serpents was another animated figure on the front of the ride, and other animated figures have been there previously. The serpents were absent for the first part of the 2007 season, though they later returned in greater quantity, though the two on the right come too close together, rubbing off the foam rubber eye of the rightmost serpent. A greenish vulture was also added to the leftmost window. In front of the ride, a glass case held an animatronic figure who simultaneously vomits and defecates while hunched over a toilet. The ride\'s cars were like bumper cars, but were in multiple colors and have heavier protective guards that are lowered over riders. After April 2009, two virtually identical vultures were placed on the exterior of the ride, the serpents were again removed, and the vomiter/defecator was given a female likeness, including a long blonde wig and a black skirt.
The ride opened with a long trek up a slope similar to a roller coaster. A halved man hung from the ceiling over the car, and the first full stunt passed was of an electric chair execution. After a brief U-turn outside, one was greeted by a bulging eyed bellhop and a plunge down another slope past several strands that made contact with the rider. At the bottom of this dark passage were torches, horror-oriented familial groups sitting together, torture victims, Tiki creatures, a snapping alligator, and another vomiting man (the vomit was obviously water sprayed hard and wide), among others. Some of these leaned threateningly toward the rider. This last and longest part of the ride was not a complete building, but housed in black tarpaulin. As far as sound effects, aside from thunder, there was a lot of gunfire, although no guns were shown

# Vergadeika
**Vergadeika** (*Βεργαδέικα*) is a small village within the larger Longanikos community in Laconia, southern Greece. Vergadeika is a one- to two-hour drive to the cities Sparta (34 km), Tripoli (49 km), and Kalamata (58 km). It is approximately 202 km from Athens.
Vergadeika lies less than a kilometer away from the large settlement of Longanikos, which has a current population of approximately 300 people. Due to the larger size of Longanikos, Vergadeika is considered to be \"within\" Longanikos for purposes of classification and official administration.
The village has an approximate population of 80 people and consists of a \"north part\" and a \"south part\". This village, as well its neighboring villages, had a much higher population several decades ago, but migration to the major Greek cities, such as Athens, and abroad, namely to the United States, diminished the population tremendously. Presently, there are mostly elderly Greeks who reside in the village, while their children return from the large metropolitan areas for weekend vacations or major holidays.
Coming from Athens by car, one would take highway E94 to E65. From E65 in Tripoli the village is only accessible by small mountain roads. A visitor may also travel by bus or train to the nearest large city, Tripoli, and take an automobile from there.
## Geography
Vergadeika is settled on the side of the Taygetos mountain range, a historically famous and geographically prominent feature in the Peloponnese. Below Vergadeika is the fertile Evrotas Valley (named after the ancient Evrotas river), which is formed by the convergence of the Taygetos and Parnonas mountains. Historically, this strategic flat plain was used for the transportation of people and ancient Spartan armies. Agriculturally, olives are cultivated in this fertile valley. Many of the residents of the village also make homemade wine, although this is strictly for local consumption.
## Life of the village {#life_of_the_village}
Due to the high population of elderly Greeks living in Vergadeika, many of the residents spend their time in their homes or in their gardens. The younger population of the village works during the day, typically in the close cities of Tripoli, Sparta and Megalopoli.
Life is very traditional and laid back in Vergadeika. It is not uncommon to find neighbors having coffee and cigarettes for many hours.
During the day, a local grocery truck drives to the villages of the Longanikos settlement and sells goods to the villagers. This service is specifically performed for the elderly villagers who do not have the means to travel far for groceries.

The nearest clinics to Vergadeika are located in Longanikos, Georgitsi, and Kastori. The nearest post offices are located in Georgitsi and Kastori, and the Mayor\'s office is located in Pellana.
## Ruins in the area {#ruins_in_the_area}
Because the village is an ancient village in the Peloponnese, one of the oldest regions of the Greece, it lies very close to many important ruins. In the actual village of Vergadeika stands the church of Agios Demetrios. This church dates from the 15th century.
The closest ruins to the village are in the larger towns of Longanikos and Kastoria. In Longanikos, a visitor can find sites such as: the church of Agios Georgios (1375 A.D.), the church of the Holy Apostles of Agioi Theodoroi (1380 A.D.), the church of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary (15th century), the Fountain at Vergdeika, the mansion of \"Papakalos\" (end of the 18th century), and the church of the Prophet Elias (built in 1810) which is decorated with artifacts from the 10th to 11th centuries. Many of the surrounding villages have ancient, medieval, and early modern attractions as well, such as Kastoria, Agoriani, and Vordonia. In the latter the remains of a medieval Frankish Fort can be found.
The close village of Pellana, which is the namesake for the municipality, holds the ruins of an ancient town from the days of Sparta.
Vergadeika is very close to the famous sites of Mystras and ancient Sparta. It is also within 30 km of sites such as Mantineia, the Temple of Apollo Epicurius at Bassae, and the ancient site at Megalopoli.
## Greek fires of 2007 {#greek_fires_of_2007}
In August 2007, devastating forest fires ripped through southern Greece, killing 64 souls. Vergadeika and surrounding villages were threatened and many residents, specifically elderly ones, were evacuated. Some of the villagers, however, refused to leave and helped battle nearby smaller fires that had broken out.

## Miscellaneous
- The professional baseball player for the Boston Red Sox, Harry Agganis, is a Greek-American whose parents hail from the village of Longanikos. He is a local Greek-American hero in Boston, Massachusetts.
- The Loganikos Society, a Greek-American organization, was founded in Massachusetts.
- The villages of Longanikos, Vergadeika, Agoriani, Pardali, and many others in the municipality, are believed to be derived from the Slavic and Turkish languages. For instance, Pardali is believed to come from a Turk named Pardali who owned the entire area. Also, a large family in the village of Vergadeika, whose surname is Arvanitis, reinforces this hypothesis. The name Arvanitis is believed to be derived from a migratory Albanian-Greek tribe, the Arvanites, from northern Greece.

# Ascofuranone
**Ascofuranone** is an antibiotic produced by various ascomycete fungi including *Acremonium sclerotigenum* that inhibits the *Trypanosoma brucei* alternative oxidase and is a lead compound in efforts to produce other drugs targeting this enzyme for the treatment of sleeping sickness. The compound is effective both in vitro cell culture and in infections in mice.
Ascofuranone has also been reported to have anti-tumor activity, and modulate the immune system. \_\_TOC\_\_
## Biosynthesis
The proposed biosynthesis of ascofuranone was reported by Kita et al., as well as by Abe et al. The prenylation of orsellinic acid, followed by terminal cyclization through epoxidation is how ascofuranone can be synthesized. Compound **(1)**, ilicicolinic acid B, was found to be produced from polyketide synthase (PKS) StBA and that AscCABD are responsible for the biosynthesis of ilicicolin A **(3)**. Ilicicolin B **(2)** was found to be produced by expressing AscC (polyketide synthase) which is then followed by expression of AscA (prenyltransferase). AscD (flavin-dependent halogenase, flavin binding enzyme) is able to catalyze the chlorination of ilicicolinic acid B **(2)** to yield ilicicolin A **(3)**.
Expodiation of **(3)** by AscE (P450 monooxygenase) leads to the formation of ilicicolin A epoxide **(4)**. Ilicicolin A epoxide can then be hydroxylated by AscH at C-16 (P450 monooygenase) to yield intermediate **(5)** which can then be cyclized by AscI (eight-transmembrane protein, TPC) into ascofuranol **(6)**, specifically through 6-endo-tet cyclization. Finally, ascofuranol **(6)** can be oxidized by AscJ (NAD(P)-dependent alcohol dehydrogenase) leading to the formation of ascofuranone

# Wimpy P-1
**Wimpy P-1** was the first registered Quarter Horse for the American Quarter Horse Association, or AQHA.
## Life
Wimpy was foaled on the King Ranch in Kingsville, Texas on March 3, 1937. However, the original application listed his foaling date as April 3, 1937, and the original stud books gave his foaling year as 1935. He was a son of Solis, himself a son of Old Sorrel, the King Ranch foundation stallion. Solis\' dam was an unregistered and unnamed mare of Thoroughbred breeding who was by Right Royal and out of a mare by Martin\'s Best. Wimpy\'s dam was a mare named Panda, also sired by Old Sorrel. Panda\'s dam was a roan mare by Hickory Bill. Wimpy traced three times to Hickory Bill, making him quite inbred to Hickory Bill.
Wimpy was a chestnut colored stallion, with a star and a sock on his left hind leg. When fully grown, he was 15 hands high and weighed about 1200 pounds.
## Show career {#show_career}
Wimpy was a grand Champion Stallion in March 1941 at the Southwestern Exposition Quarter Horse show in Fort Worth, Texas, which honor earned him the first number in the newly organized American Quarter Horse Association.
## Breeding record {#breeding_record}
Wimpy sired over a hundred and fifty foals for the King Ranch, before he was given in 1958 to George Clegg, who had bred Old Sorrel. However, Clegg was forced to sell Wimpy to Rex Cauble, who owned the stallion until Wimpy died on August 13, 1959, when Wimpy was twenty-two years old.
Among Wimpy\'s sons and daughters were Bill Cody, Kip Mac, Caballero, Wimpy\'s Image, Silver Wimpy, Wimpy II, Lauro and Showdown. His grandget included Joe Cody, Marion\'s Girl, Codalena, Pandarita Hill and Show Maid.
## Honors
Wimpy was inducted into the AQHA Hall of Fame in 1989. In September 1961 a bronze statue of Wimpy was erected outside the AQHA Headquarters in Amarillo, Texas

# SV Lichtenberg 47
**SV Lichtenberg 47** is a German association football club from Berlin. The footballers are part of a larger sports club that currently has over 900 members in departments for bowling, boxing, fitness and aerobics, gymnastics, line dancing, table tennis, and volleyball.
## History
The club was established in 1945 as *Sportgruppe Lichtenberg-Nord* in Russian-occupied East Berlin. It was one of several sides from the district of Lichtenberg that were brought together in 1947 to form *Sportclub Lichtenberg 47*. The team would play as *SC Lichtenberg 47* until 1950 when the club was renamed *Sportgemeinschaft Lichtenberg 47*. The team would play as *SG Lichtenberg 47* until 1969 when the club merged with the worker\'s club *Betriebssportgemeinschaft Elektroproject und Anlagebau Berlin* to form *BSG EAB Lichtenberg*. In 1979 the association was renamed *BSG EAB Berlin 47*.
The club spent over four decades as an elevator side that moved frequently up and down between the second and third tiers of East German football with only a single season (1950--51) in the top-flight to its credit.
After German reunification in 1990 and the subsequent merger of the football leagues of the two Germanys, the club adopted the name *Sportverein Lichtenberg* and took up play in the NOFV-Oberliga Mitte (III). A poor season saw the team relegated to the Verbandsliga Berlin (IV) and by the mid-1990s they had descended to the Landesliga Berlin (VI). SV Lichtenberg 47 recovered itself in the latter half of the decade and in 2001 captured the championship in what was now the fifth tier Verbandsliga Berlin. The team spent four seasons in the NOFV-Oberliga Nord (IV) until returning in 2005 to the Berlin-Liga (V until 2008). In 2012 they were promoted back to the Oberliga (V) They played in the Oberliga until 2019, when they were promoted to the Regionalliga Nordost (IV) after winning the Oberliga championship.
## Stadium
SV Lichtenberg 47 play their home matches in the Hans-Zoschke-Stadion which has a capacity of 10,000 (1,000 seats). It was built in 1951 on the site of the old *Sportplatz Normannenstraße* which had a capacity of 18,000.
Named after Hans Zoschke, an athlete and communist resistance fighter who died at the hands of the Nazi regime in 1944, the stadium was adjacent to the headquarters of the Stasi, East Germany\'s state police. Local lore has it that Stasi boss Erich Mielke ordered the building torn down after witnessing the close defeat of his favourite club, BFC Dynamo, from an office window. The building was saved when Zoschke\'s widow Elfried appealed to Communist party boss Erich Honecker.

# Hewitt Bouanchaud
**Hewitt Leonidas Bouanchaud** (August 19, 1877 -- October 17, 1950) was a Democratic politician in the U.S. state of Louisiana. A native of Pointe Coupee Parish, Bouanchaud was elected a member of the Louisiana House of Representatives in 1904. After an absence of one term, he was elected again in 1912 and 1916. In 1916, he was named Speaker of the Louisiana House. In 1920, he was elected lieutenant governor as the running mate to gubernatorial candidate John M. Parker, a Democrat formerly affiliated with the Progressive Party. Among Bouanchaud\'s opponents was state court Judge Philip H. Gilbert of Assumption Parish, who was subsequently the interim lieutenant governor from 1926 to 1928.

In 1924, Lieutenant Governor Bouanchaud ran for governor against Henry L. Fuqua, and Huey Pierce Long, Jr. Bouanchaud and Fuqua received the most votes in the first Democratic primary held on January 15, 1924, with Long of Winnfield, having been eliminated from contention that year. Long then gained the governorship four years later in 1928. Fuqua defeated Bouanchaud in the second Democratic primary held on February 19, 1924.
Bouanchaud was the brother of longtime Pointe Coupee Parish Sheriff Lamartine Bouanchaud. His great-niece, Mary Blanche Crosby Brown (1923-2013), was the wife of J. Marshall Brown, a member of the Louisiana House of Representatives from Orleans Parish and a leading figure in the Louisiana Democratic Party.

Alcide Bouanchaud later became a state district court judge. Hewitt Bouanchaud\'s nephew, Alcide \"Bub\" Bouanchaud, and his great-great nephew. Paul Raymond Smith, both served as sheriff in Pointe Coupee Parish.
Bouanchaud was preceded as Speaker by Lee Emmett Thomas of Shreveport

# Stac Biorach
**Stac Biorach** (Scottish Gaelic: \"sharply pointed stack\") is a sea stack, 73 m tall, situated in the Sound of Soay between the islands of Hirta and Soay in the St Kilda archipelago of Scotland. It lies west of the 62 m high Stac Shoaigh. Regarded by the St Kildans as the most challenging of their stacks to climb, it was nonetheless an important source of food. The first written records date from the second half of the 17th century and the first recreational ascent took place in 1883. It is now part of the St Kilda World Heritage Site and in the care of the National Trust for Scotland.
## History
The stack has never been inhabited, but has contributed considerably to the local economy by supplying the St Kildans with sea birds and their eggs. In the 19th century the St Kildans were observed collecting eggs from here in baskets like flat-bottomed bee hives, each of 17 baskets holding about 400 guillemot eggs.
Also known as \"Thumb Stack\" because the only holds on the rock are no bigger than a thumb, it was \"regarded as the most difficult and dangerous to climb\" and \"one which only a few of the natives could lead.\" Quine (2000) describes the stack as \"almost inaccessible\" and adds that \"even the St Kildans stopped climbing it around 1840\".{{#tag:ref\|However, this cannot be entirely true given their assistance to Barrington in 1883.\|group=\"Note\"}}{{#tag:ref\|The National Trust for Scotland indicate that such was the remoteness of St Kilda from mainland Scotland that Stac Biorach\'s exact location \"remained a mystery\" until Barrington\'s ascent in the late 19th century. However, Martin Martin\'s description, published in 1703 begins \"Betwixt the west point of St. Kilda, and the Isle Soa, is the famous rock Stack-donn\".\|group=\"Note\"}}
### Sir Robert Murray {#sir_robert_murray}
Sir Robert Moray visited St Kilda in the latter half of the 17th century,{{#tag:ref\|Haswell-Smith gives the date as 1698. Taylor lists the relevant work - *A Description of the island of Hirta* as having been published in 1687 but this would also appear to be a typo - the original appearing in 1678. This must have been published posthumously - the Royal Society lists the original record as 30 September 1661.\|group=\"Note\"}} and wrote a description of stack climbing in St Kilda: \"after they landed, a man having room for but one of his feet, he must climb up 12 or 16 fathoms high. Then he comes to a place where having but room for his left foot and left hand, he must leap from thence to another place before him, which if hit right the rest of the ascent is easy\... but if he misseth that footstep (as often times they do) he falls into the sea and the (boat\'s) company takes him in and he sits still until he is a little refreshed and then he tries it again, for everyone there is not able for that sport.\"

## History
### Martin Martin {#martin_martin}
Martin Martin visited St Kilda in 1697. He wrote of Stack-donn{{#tag:ref\|In the original 1678 publication Moray refers to *Stacka Donna*. However the description states that the stack concerned has an \"abundance of fowls\" which does not seem to fit the much smaller feature with the modern name of Stac Dona. *dona* means \"bad\" and the St Kildans gave this name to the stack because it provided few nesting spaces for birds. Haswell-Smith maintains that the stack referred to by Moray was Biorach. Similarly, Martin Martin\'s description refers to \"Stack-donn\" but is evidently about Stac Biorach. For example, the currently named Stac Dona is somehere between 15m and 27m high and shaped more like a pyramid than a steeple. Heathcote takes it for granted that Martin\'s Stack-donn is Stac Biorach.\|group=\"Note\"}}that:
> It is much of the form and height of a steeple; there is a very great dexterity, and it is reckoned no small gallantry to climb this rock, especially that part of it called the Thumb, which is so little, that of all the parts of a man's body, the thumb only can lay hold on it\... and having a rope about his middle, that he casts down to the boat, by the help of which he carries up as many persons as are designed for fowling at this time; the foreman, or principal climber, has the reward of four fowls bestowed upon him above his proportion; and, perhaps, one might think four thousand too little to compensate so great a danger as this man incurs; he has this advantage by it, that he is recorded among their greatest heroes; as are all the foremen who lead the van in getting up this mischievous rock.
Young St Kildan\'s were tested for their climbing skills on the stack and at one time any man who was unable to climb it was forbidden to take a wife, although this \"law\" was relaxed latterly.
> Before any climbing could begin a landing had to be made. This was almost the trickiest part of any expedition to those stacs like Lee, Armin or Biorach, which to the inexperienced eye seem to rise sheer from the water, smooth and unapproachable as pencil leads. The expedition was usually led by the officer\... \[or\] *Gingach*. He had to land first and leave last. The difficulty of landing, of getting a foot or hand hold on the slippery rock, was aggravated by the action of the waves (even in the calmest weather there is always a heavy swell), which carried the boat up and down the face of the rock, while it required all the skill of the boatmen to bring her close without striking. The officer had to wait for a wave to carry the boat up to a good height, then jump for it.
The dangers were considerable and Moray wrote that \"The Men seldom grow old; and seldom was it ever known, that any man died in his Bed there, but was either drowned or broke his neck\".

## Recreational climbing {#recreational_climbing}
The first record of the recreational ascent of a sea stack in Scotland is likely that of Richard Barrington, who climbed Stac Biorach in 1883. An experienced alpinist, he called it the most dangerous climb he had ever undertaken.{{#tag:ref\|This ascent of Stac Biorach is the subject of a number of conflicting assertions. Mellor has this FA taking place in 1883 by \"a C. Barrington\". Similarly, Haswell-Smith states that \"The first recorded outsider to climb both this stack and Stac Lee was Charles Barrington in 1883\". This refers to Richard\'s brother Charles who would have been 49 years old in 1883. Quine also states that the FA was in that year but by Richard Barrington. The National Trust for Scotland have R. Barrington as the climber but the date as 1890, a date repeated by the BBC. Maclean has Richard Barrington making the ascent in 1929. There is thus confusion about both the date of the ascent and which brother was the ascender. However, R. Barrington was 16 years younger than Charles and the *Dictionary of Irish Biography* makes it clear that it was the former who travelled to \"remote islands off Scotland (1883, 1886, 1890)\". The original paper by R. Barrington in the Alpine Journal in 1913 also states that the year of the ascent was 1883. Barrington wrote "the fact that a certain rivalry existed between myself and an elder brother who first ascended the Eiger induced me to visit St. Kilda in 1883, as I wished to test the ability of the natives as cragsmen, to compare them with Swiss guides, and to study the fauna and flora of this remote island, of which little was then known. It is thirty years ago next June since I ascended Stack-na-Biorrach, and therefore I trust I shall not be accused of hasty self-advertisement".\|group=\"Note\"}} He made the ascent with the help of two St Kildans, Donald McDonald and Donald McQueen.
Today climbing in all of the St Kilda archipelago is subject to the permission of the National Trust for Scotland, which rarely grants it. In 2023 a small group of British climbers, including Robbie Phillips from Edinburgh, completed the climb of Stac Biorach, the first documented ascent in over 130 years. Phillips said it \"was like walking in the footsteps, or climbing in the fingerprints, of the St Kildans. It's a testament to their bravery and mental fortitude; to climb onto that sea stack 70m above the raging Atlantic without even shoes is wild to imagine\".
Haswell-Smith states that landing is only possible on three days in a summer month on average and that sailing the narrow channel between Stac Soay and Hirta is \"possible in good weather\". There are no anchorages in the vicinity save for Village Bay on Hirta.

## Birdlife and conservation status {#birdlife_and_conservation_status}
Like the other stacks and islands of St Kilda, Stac Biorach is extraordinarily rich in birdlife, and boasts the largest colony of guillemots in the archipelago.
Today the whole of the St Kilda archipelago is a National nature reserve and bird life is protected. In the past however, these birds and their eggs were a crucial resource for the St Kildans. A 19th century eye-witness wrote of the guillemot eggs that they: \"are very good eating when fresh. After they are incubated for a few days most of the egg appears, when boiled, to be changed into a rich thick cream, and in this condition they are also relished. Sometimes eggs, not only of this species but of some others which have not been hatched, are found late in the season. Some of these when cooked look like a piece of sponge-cake, have a high gamey flavour, and are esteemed a great delicacy.\"
St Kilda has been uninhabited since 1930 and in 1986 became a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Nearly one million seabirds are present on the islands during the breeding season making the archipelago \"a seabird sanctuary without parallel in Europe\"

# At First Sight, Violets Are Blue
***At First Sight, Violets Are Blue*** is the debut studio album by Australian alternative rock group, The Stems, released in August 1987 through Mushroom Records\' White Label on vinyl. The title track \"At First Sight\" gained mainstream airplay and a position on the *Young Einstein* sound track. \"At First Sight\" became the band\'s signature track and the album is still rated as one of the best Australian guitar pop releases. In the early nineties *Rolling Stone* included it in the top 100 Australian releases of all time.
The album was re-issued by Mushroom Records on 23 March 2003 and included a bonus disc with 14 additional tracks.
In 2007 the album was certified gold (with sales of over 35,000 units).

# The Unsex'd Females
***The Unsex\'d Females, a Poem*** (1798), by Richard Polwhele, is a polemical intervention into the public debates over the role of women at the end of the 18th century. The poem is primarily concerned with what Polwhele characterizes as the encroachment of radical French political and philosophical ideas into British society, particularly those associated with the Enlightenment. These subjects come together, for Polwhele, in the revolutionary figure of Mary Wollstonecraft.
The poem is of interest to those interested in the history of women, as well as revolutionary politics, and is an example of the British backlash against the ideals of the French Revolution; it is representative of the strategic conflation of women writers with revolutionary ideals during this period; and it helps illuminate the obstacles faced by women writers at the end of the 18th century.
## Historical context {#historical_context}
Responding to women authors according to presumptions about their sexuality has a long history; a comparison between the critical reputations of Aphra Behn and Katherine Philips, more than a century earlier, is instructive here as these two writers were virtually symbolic of the choices available to women writers in the 18th century: Behn\'s reputation as \"shady and amorous\" continued well into the 20th century, whereas Philips --- known as \"The Matchless Orinda\" --- was considered an exemplar of proper femininity. Polwhele is hardly original in his opposition of \"proper\" and \"improper\" women writers and his criticism of Wollstonecraft is focused on her troubled and unconventional life as described in the frank biography by William Godwin as much as on her writing. *The Unsex\'d Female* is complicated, however, by the tumultuous political situation at the time of its publication. The American Revolution had occurred only two decades earlier, the events of the French Revolution were even more recent, and the Haitian Revolution, the most successful of the African slave rebellions in the Western Hemisphere, was in process. Ideas about enfranchisement, liberty, and equality were widespread. To Polwhele and others who shared his perspective, these ideas were perceived as attacks on religion, the monarchy, and the government. Women\'s advocacy of access to education was confused with the most outrageous actions ascribed to the revolutionaries: free love, irreligion, and violent upheaval. Some commenters went so far as to blame the French Revolution on \"a notorious dereliction of female principle\" and \"the dissipated and indelicate behaviour and loose morals\" of French women. Many of those who had initially supported the French Revolution turned away from the excesses of the Terror, and Britain was gripped by a strong backlash against any ideas that seemed in the least revolutionary. Janet Todd wrote that \"Britain, once priding itself on being the most politically enlightened and liberal state in Europe, came to define itself in increasingly conservative, patriotic, and anti-French terms.\" \"Gallic\" and \"French\" came to mean, in the popular imagination, \"revolutionary,\" so when Polwhele writes of \"Gallic freaks\" (l. 21) he is not merely describing fashions in clothing. Those Britons who sympathized with the French Revolution were known as \"Jacobins.\" Those who opposed it were \"Anti-Jacobins.\" *The Antijacobin, or Weekly Examiner* (1797--1798), the *Anti-Jacobin Review*, and the *British Critic* (1793--1843), were among the conservative journals that grew up during this highly polarized period. Polwhele, a conservative member of the Anglican clergy, was himself a contributor to the *Anti-Jacobin Review*. According to Eleanor Ty, although feminist thought had existed for decades, the women of the 1790s seemed \"particularly threatening to the anti-Jacobins\" because of \"the outspoken claiming of their \'rights\' shortly after and coinciding with the events in France that culminated in the Revolution.\"
(See also *A Vindication of the Rights of Woman*.)
## Publication history and reception {#publication_history_and_reception}
As indicated in the subtitle, \"Addressed to the author of the Pursuits of Literature,\" Polwhele was inspired to write his poem after reading satirist Thomas Mathias\' \"blistering attack\" on the democratisation of culture in his *Pursuits of Literature* (1798). Mathias deplored \"unsex\'d female writers \[who\] now instruct, or confuse, us and themselves, in the labyrinth of politics, or turn us wild with Gallic frenzy.\"
*The Unsex\'d Females* was originally published anonymously in London in 1798 by Cadell and Davies in a standalone, one volume edition . The American edition of 1800 also included *A Sketch of the Private and Public Character of P. Pindar*, an attack on the anti-monarchical satiric poet John Wolcott (1738--1819), a pairing publisher William Cobbett apparently saw as \"a marketable combination\" for a presumably Tory readership.
*The Unsex\'d Females* was \"well known\" among the responses to Wollstonecraft and her *A Vindication of the Rights of Woman*. One reviewer comments this \"ingenious poem\" with its \"playful sallies of sarcastic wit\" against \"our modern ladies,\" though others found it \"a tedious, lifeless piece of writing.\" Critical responses largely fell along clear-cut political lines. Mathias, whose *Pursuits of Literature* had been so inspirational to Polwhele, was himself somewhat tepid in his enthusiasm for the work.

# The Unsex'd Females
## Structure and themes {#structure_and_themes}
The poem itself consists of 206 lines of heroic couplets. There are a quantity of footnotes, to the degree that they outweigh the poem, word for word, by a considerable margin. In these footnotes Polwhele elaborates on various points which might get lost in verse and underscores the primacy of his polemical purpose. In structure the poem is straightforward: Polwhele compares two groups of writers, the \"unsex\'d females\" of the title --- \"unsex\'d\" meaning un-feminine or un-womanly --- and a second group of exemplary women writers. He also makes some more general points about feminine decorum in the earlier part of the poem.
### Unsex\'d females {#unsexd_females}
The poem betrays a particular animus for Mary Wollstonecraft and, by extension, others Polwhele considered to be of her radical, pro-French camp: writers Anna Laetitia Barbauld, Mary Robinson, Charlotte Turner Smith, Helen Maria Williams, Ann Yearsley, Mary Hays and Ann Jebb, and artists Angelica Kauffman and Emma Crewe. Strangely, perhaps, only Hays, Jebb and Smith shared political sympathies with Wollstonecraft, and Smith, by 1798, had turned her back on her previous ideas. The others, though, in different ways, all fell afoul of restrictive ideas of female (and class) decorum. Yearsley, for example, a labouring-class poet who had a dispute with her patron, Hannah More, is accused of longing \"to rustle, like her sex, in silk\" (l.102). According to one editor, \"one can only conclude that Polwhele attacks these women not for what they are, but for what they are not: they are unsexed, unfeminine, either because they are immodest, or unsentimental, or insubordinate. Women must do more than simply avoid setting a bad example: they must provide a positive model of chaste, sentimental, subordinate femininity.\" Of this transgressive group, Polwhele invites the reader:
> Survey with me, what ne\'er our fathers saw,\
> A female band despising NATURE\'s law,\
> As \"proud defiance\" flashes from their arms,\
> And vengeance smothers all their softer charms. (ll.11--14)
His remarks on Wollstonecraft, \"whom no decorum checks\" (l.63), stray from the literary and political into the personal; he invokes her complicated personal history and, of her death in childbirth, comments in a note: \"I cannot but think, that the Hand of Providence is visible, in her life, her death... As she was given up to her \'heart\'s lusts,\' and let \'to follow her own imaginations, that the fallacy of her doctrines and the effects of an irreligious conduct, might be manifested to the world; and as she died a death that strongly marked the distinction of the sexes, by pointing out the destiny of women, and the diseases to which they are liable\" (29--30).

## Structure and themes {#structure_and_themes}
### Proper ladies {#proper_ladies}
After a catalogue of the various evils of the age, the poem ends on a positive note when it turns to a group of writers, many of them Bluestockings, who reverse the dangerous literary, philosophical and political trends outlined in the earlier sections. The approved writers, in contrast to the \"witlings\" (l.9) previously described, are lauded for their facility in combining morality and feminine decorum with literary publication, and comprise a number of Polwhele\'s acquaintance: Elizabeth Montagu is praised for her ability to \"refine a letter\'d age\" (l.188) and Elizabeth Carter for hers to \"with a milder air, diffuse / The moral precepts of the Grecian Muse\" (ll.189--90). Frances Burney is praised for her ability to \"mix with sparkling humour chaste / Delicious feelings and the purest taste\" (ll.195--96). \"And listening girls perceive a charm unknown / In grave advice, as utter\'d by \[\[Hester Chapone\|\[Hester\] CHAPONE\]\]\" (ll.191--192). Anna Seward, Hester Thrale Piozzi, Ann Radcliffe, artist Diana Beauclerk, and, most centrally, Hannah More, who is set up as a sort of \"anti-Wollstonecraft,\" complete the list of proper women writers:
> ... round their MORE the sisters sigh\'d!\
> Soft on each tongue repentant murmurs died;\
> And sweetly scatter\'d (as they glanc\'d away)\
> Their conscious \"blushes spoke a brighter day.\" (ll.203--206)
In *The Unsex\'d Females*, Polwhele initially seems to divide women writers according to their sexual reputations, but a closer examination reveals that he positions them largely symbolically. Why, for example, would Emma Crewe be in Wollstonecraft\'s group while Diana Beauclerk is in More\'s, particularly as the two knew each other and worked together? Beauclerk, in fact, had her own scandalous history: divorced by her husband for adultery, revealed to have had a child by her lover while still married, she was hardly a \"proper lady.\" She was, however, a well-connected, well-established member of the aristocracy who painted charming, decorative pieces. Hannah More herself, while hardly a revolutionary, held a number of ideas uncannily similar to those of Wollstonecraft, ideas about the importance of female education, for example. Polwhele\'s polemical structure is not concerned with these nuances, however, and he positions these writers strictly according to his overarching scheme.

## Structure and themes {#structure_and_themes}
### Botany
Polwhele had a variety of targets. In addition to literary and artistic improprieties, he deplored the popular female pastime of amateur botany. While this may seem a strange preoccupation to a contemporary reader, Polwhele was in fact intervening in an ongoing, and quite heated debate about the propriety of girls and women learning about the reproduction of plants, a debate that arose in part after Erasmus Darwin published an English translation of the work of Swedish botanist Carl Linnaeus, as well as his own poem, \"The Loves of the Plants\" (1790):
> With secret sighs the Virgin Lily droops,\
> And jealous Cowslips hang their tawny cups.\
> How the young Rose in beauty\'s damask pride\
> Drinks the warm blushes of his bashful bride;\
> With honey\'d lips enamour\'d Woodbines meet,\
> Clasp with fond arms, and mix their kisses sweet. (ll.15--20)
To Polwhele this is practically pornography and he graphically depicts the repercussions should women and girls be allowed to practise botany:
> With bliss botanic as their bosoms heave,\
> Still pluck forbidden fruit, with mother Eve,\
> For puberty in signing florets pant,\
> Or point the prostitution of a plant;\
> Dissect its organ of unhallow\'d lust,\
> And fondly gaze the titillating dust. (ll.29--34)
Perhaps ironically, these lines in particular were singled out by the anti-Jacobin *British Critic*, apparently unaware of the authorship of the poem, as being in \"bad taste.\"
According to Ann B. Shteir, \"Polwhele\'s objections \[to women practicing botany\] combine critiques of female scientific practices with critiques of other \'Gallic\' and \'revolutionary\' practices, such as acknowledging sexuality and teaching children about sex.\" In a note, Polwhele writes that \"Botany has lately become a fashionable amusement with the ladies. But how the study of the sexual system of plants can accord with female modesty, I am not able to comprehend... I have, several times, seen boys and girls botanizing together\" (8). His concerns about propriety dovetail neatly with what Robin Jarvis describes as the \"intellectual backlash provoked by the French Revolution\" whereby \"by the mid-1790s scientific opinions were no longer ideologically neutral.\"
### French fashions {#french_fashions}
Polwhele is concerned with the moral ramifications of the intellectual activities of girls and women, most centrally writing. He does not, however, restrain his comments to academic pursuits; he inveighs, for example, against French fashions in dress and draws a clear line from French style to French philosophy:
> With equal ease, in body or in mind,\
> To Gallic freaks or Gallic faith resign\'d,\
> The crane-like neck, as Fashion bids, lay bare,\
> Or frizzle, bold in front, their borrow\'d hair;\
> Scarce by a gossamery film carest,\
> Sport, in full view, the meretricious breast. (ll.20--24)
There is a long-standing tradition of satirising the more extreme aspects of fashion, and women\'s fashion in particular. The less restrictive fashion of this period came in for considerable caricature. Polwhele, with his anti-French, nationalistic tone, contributes to a sub-set of such satires, a sub-set which expresses unease with feminism in terms of the \"controversy concerning female fashions.\"
## Legacy
During his lifetime Polwhele was seen as a minor figure, though prolific, and after his death he was little read. The contemporary reader may find some of Polwhele\'s preoccupations, particularly botany and fashion, amusing. *The Unsex\'d Females*, however, was a salvo in a propaganda war that the participants took extremely seriously. After the revolution in literary criticism in the 1970s and 1980s when it was successfully argued that works could not solely be judged on their literary merit, poems such as Polwhele\'s were resurrected. They have subsequently shed considerable light on the cultural moments during which they were written. *The Unsex\'d Females* remains of considerable interest today as a vibrant example of the politically charged culture of the revolutionary period in Britain

# Black Cadillac (film)
***Black Cadillac*** is a 2003 American thriller film directed by John Murlowski, and written by Murlowski and Will Aldis. It stars Shane Johnson, Josh Hammond, Jason Dohring and Randy Quaid.
## Plot
Three young men, Scott, CJ and Scott\'s younger brother Robbie, stop at a roadhouse in snowy Wisconsin in search of a good time. Soon, CJ gets into a fight in the bar and Scott is forced to come inside and bail him and Robbie out. Leaving the roadhouse, the three set off for Minnesota, their home state.
Within a few minutes, a large, menacing black 1957 Cadillac limousine begins stalking them, repeatedly creeping up close and backing off again. Later, they pick up Deputy Sheriff Charlie Harman, whose \'86 Chevrolet police cruiser has broken down on the side of the road. After picking up the friendly and talkative Charlie, the 1957 Cadillac Limousine follows them all the way, begins to act more aggressive and for unknown reasons challenges Scott\'s car (a red Saab 900) to a drag race, in which it tries repeatedly to wreck the Saab. Later, the men stop at a cafe at the side of the road to grab some refreshments for the night, where they soon discover a message on the windshield of the Saab stating \"Your sin will find you\", mysteriously unremovable.
The trio begins to puzzle why they are being pursued, who its occupants are, and who wrote the message. Suspicious, Scott decides to kick Charlie out of the car and leave him, believing he is the reason they are being chased. The Cadillac then reappears from hiding and Charlie is apparently killed by a gunman in the front seat. As the night progresses, the men attempt to escape and outwit the Cadillac, which causes the Saab to overheat. In the midst of frustration, a fight breaks out between the three men. CJ intervenes and stops the fight. After spotting a garage in the distance, the three push the Saab down the road towards it. They try repairing their car, but CJ is soon kidnapped by the Cadillac\'s occupants while outside. A chase between both cars across the nearby frozen lake ensues, in which Scott\'s car is finally destroyed by its overheating problems.
CJ is then found tied to a tree, and the reason for the entire set of events is revealed. Charlie, who in truth is a cruel and vindictive man whose death was faked by his brother Luther, the Cadillac\'s driver, has been attempting to identify the man whom his wife had been seeing at a roadhouse, and learned that it was Scott. As he prepares to kill Scott with a hunting knife, his wife Jeanine taunts and distracts him, allowing Scott, Robbie and CJ to break free and run. An insanely enraged Charlie, now personally driving the Cadillac, chases after them. When he corners Scott at the edge of a cliff, he waits a moment, then charges. His wife appears at the last moment in front of Scott, causing Charlie to veer away, sending the Cadillac crashing down the cliff and into the lake. Charlie and Luther are killed, and the destroyed, burning car sinks into the lake while Scott, CJ, Robbie and Jeanine look on. The next morning, the group finally makes it across the state line into Minnesota.

# Housetrucker
**Housetruckers** are individuals, families and groups who convert old trucks and school buses into portable homes called **housetrucks** and live in them, preferring an unattached and transient lifestyle to more conventional housing. These vehicles began appearing around New Zealand during the mid-1970s and, even though there are fewer today, they continue to travel New Zealand roads.
By the 21st century these hippie nomads were found traveling independently and in convoys from town to town making a living from small cottage industries such as arts and crafts, or following various fruit picking seasons as they occurred throughout the nation. Other part-time housetruckers use their handcrafted rigs only when taking an extended holiday. Some older vehicles which no longer operate are lifted on blocks and used as permanent caravans or extra rooms on properties and in caravan parks.
## New Zealand connection {#new_zealand_connection}
There are few places left in the world where housetrucking can be an uninhibited lifestyle with the kinds of simple homemade rigs New Zealand boasts. In other countries stringent laws regarding the roadworthy standards of older vehicles have forced many old housetrucks and buses from the roads and into graveyards of isolated farm paddocks and wrecking yards. Other laws concerning where one may park or camp have seriously restricted life on the road. The Kiwi housetrucker, living within a culture which popularizes the benefits of preserving these old motor relics, appreciates their truckers\' haven. That New Zealand transport law requires that all vehicles submit to a thorough mechanical Warrant of Fitness every six months ensures that these old motor-homes remain roadworthy.
Many housetruckers choose to travel in convoy, and in New Zealand there are trucker groups of families who travel together from city to city, and who assemble most weekends in different parks to hold markets from where they sell their wares. There are two separate groups who travel New Zealand today selling their market goods; these are Gypsy Faire and Gypsy Travelers.
Throughout the 1970s and 1980s many housetruck conventions and grass-roots festivals of all themes were held throughout New Zealand where housetruckers would converge, not only for the event, but for the opportunity to connect and share information with other truckers from across the nation. These events were conducted around areas considers as alternative lifestyle zones within the country. Many a low-key festival circuit was held throughout the regions of Coromandel, Northland, West Auckland, the west coast of the South Island and in the Nelson area. For two decades Mollers farm at Oratia west of Auckland, a popular venue for blues and folk festivals, offered an open house for truckers to park on a semi-permanent basis.

## History
The idea of the nomadic styled mobile home was spawned from the international 1960s and 1970s counterculture movements, New Zealand with its unique Kiwi experience was fashioned from the early American and British hippie crusades and the then alternative music revolution. In the 1960s and 1970s hippie culture spread worldwide through a fusion of rock music, folk, blues, and psychedelic rock; it also found expression in the arts, specifically in literature, the dramatic arts and the creative arts. The early and modern housetruckers essentially derived their cultures and belief systems from these original influences.
The first groups of housetruckers to travel in a co-ordinated convoy was the Nambassa Winter Show with Mahana in 1978 and then again Mahana traveling with the Roadshow Fayre after the 1979 Nambassa festival.
### Nambassa Winter Show with Mahana {#nambassa_winter_show_with_mahana}
The **Nambassa Winter Show with Mahana** was a musical theatrical production of 60 entertainers and crew who toured the North Island of New Zealand in a convoy of mobile homes, buses and vans, performing at major centres and theatres throughout September and October 1978. While initially four main shows were scheduled for this collective theatre company, repeat and spontaneous performances around the nation saw this number of live performances increased to over ten. This theatrical extravaganza was organised by the Nambassa Trust as part of its national promotion of the arts and towards promoting its 1979 three-day music, crafts and alternative lifestyle festival which was held in Waihi.
### The Nambassa festival connection {#the_nambassa_festival_connection}
The New Zealand handcrafted house-truck fad essentially found its early roots around the period of the 1970s Nambassa alternative festivals. The annual mobile homes pilgrimage to Nambassa grew in strength, and creative design of trucks increased, as each festival unfolded, culminating in an amazing display of thousands of unique innovative rigs and vans at the 1981 festival. There were just a handful of inspiring-looking rigs in 1978, these wonderful early machines prompting a popularity explosion in this unique trucking culture. Many a jovial debate was had around camp fires arguing as to who actually built the first machines to adorn New Zealand roads.
Throughout the 1980s many mobile homes frequented the Sweetwater\'s music festivals, and alternative festivals regularly held throughout the country.
### Nambassa
Between 1976 and 1981, hippie music festivals were held on large farms around Waihi and Waikino in New Zealand-Aotearoa. Named \"Nambassa\", the festivals focused on peace, love, and a balanced lifestyle, featuring workshops and displays advocating alternative lifestyles, clean and sustainable energy, and unadulterated foods. Nambassa is also the tribal name of a trust that has championed sustainable ideas and demonstrated practical counterculture and alternative lifestyle methods since the early 1970s.
Road folk will insist that a mobile home is the ideal hippie set up for home ownership, self sufficiency, transport and to facilitate a free nomadic lifestyle. And in the 1970s anyone in New Zealand could own one very cheaply.

### Construction
Most 1970s mobile homes were constructed from the chassis upwards utilising predominantly cheap recycled materials. Throughout this era house-truck rigs were constructed on the decks of old ex-farm trucks which could then be purchased for \$500 to \$2,500. House-buses were either stripped down to the chassis in preparation for construction or just added onto, to facilitate increased living areas. As opposed to the bright colourful American and British versions of the 1960s, many of the early Kiwi trucks were finished in earthy coloured timber exteriors. This was due to the use in the 1970s by Toyota of marine grade plywood for crates to import their vehicles from Japan. The crates came with good quality framed floors. This was suitable material to construct and clad a house truck. In the 1970s one could then purchase a complete car crate for around \$25. An average size house-truck took around five car crates to build. In the 1970s a large number of derelict country farm houses from New Zealand\'s early colonial days were being demolished, these contained recyclable rare timbers such as kauri, totara and rimu. Other materials were purchased from timber recyclers and secondhand traders. Wood-fired potbelly stoves were used for cooking, heating hot water and warmth over the winter months. As most housetrucks parked in non-residential areas few of the early housetrucks were wired for mains electricity. Gas lighting and candles were the norm. Some trucks utilised a small gas or kerosene stove to supplement cooking over hot summer months. All these items were purchased second hand. Some early 1970s rigs experimented with homemade wind turbines for lighting; however these large units even though they were fastened to the roof during travel, proved awkward. Today, smaller modern units can be purchased at a reasonable price. Some housetruckers attached gas producer units to their rigs, effectively running their engines for free on charcoal gas

# Hansa-Brandenburg KDW
The **Hansa-Brandenburg KDW** was a German single-engine, single-seat, fighter floatplane of World War I. The KDW`{{snd}}`{=mediawiki}***K**ampf **D**oppeldecker, **W**asser* (Fighter Biplane, Water)`{{snd}}`{=mediawiki}was adapted from the Hansa-Brandenburg D.I landplane to provide coastal defence over the North Sea.
It was produced under licence by the Austro-Hungarian manufacturer Phönix from 1916 in five batches, with progressively more powerful engines and armament, 58 aircraft in total being produced.
## Design and development {#design_and_development}
In 1916 the Imperial German Navy ordered the production of single-seat armed scout seaplanes (*Jagdeinsitzer Wasser*) to defend its North Sea seaplane stations against air attack. To deliver suitable aircraft quickly, the first designs were floatplanes based on existing landplane models. One such was the Hansa-Brandenburg KDW, adapted by the company\'s chief designer, Ernst Heinkel, from his Hansa-Brandenburg D.I.
The D.I was a single-seat scout with novel and distinctive \"star strutter\" wing bracing. On each side of the aircraft four vee struts, two facing up, two facing down, were joined by their vertices at a point midway between the upper and lower wings, forming an eight-armed star configuration that gave the plane its nickname *Spinne* (spider).
The KDW was essentially the D.I with a small increase in wingspan and mounted on a twin-float chassis. To counteract the keel effect resulting from the floats, which were below the aircraft\'s centre of gravity, vertical tailfin area was added below and later above the fuselage. Even with the added tailfin area, the aircraft\'s lateral stability`{{snd}}`{=mediawiki}its tendency to return from a bank to vertical flight`{{snd}}`{=mediawiki}was below par. Moreover, the deep fuselage tended to blanket the small tailfin and rudder, making directional stability and control very poor.
## Operational history {#operational_history}
The KDW was produced in Austria-Hungary under license by Phönix. 58 were built in five production batches. The first batch entered combat in late 1916. The wings extended well beyond the outboard ends of the star struts, and it was found that this unbraced part of the upper wing flexed when the ailerons were actuated, reducing their effectiveness. Starting with the second batch a light steel-tube vee brace was added outboard of the star struts to stiffen the outer upper wing.
The first three batches were equipped with the 150 hp Benz Bz.III engine. The last two batches, 35 aircraft in total, were equipped with the 160 hp Maybach Mb.III engine. The first four batches were armed with one fixed Spandau machine gun, mounted on the starboard side of the nose. The final batch of 20 aircraft, delivered between October 1917 and February 1918, were armed with twin Spandau machine guns on either side of the cockpit.
Production was slow, so that many were obsolete almost as soon as they reached their units. They were difficult to fly because of the aforementioned poor directional stability. Recovery from a spin was a matter of luck. Another reason it was unpopular with pilots was that, until the final batch, the armament was positioned out of their reach, making it impossible to clear stoppages while airborne

# Cathedral School for Boys
**Cathedral School for Boys** is a K-8 all-boys private Episcopal day school located next to Grace Cathedral on Nob Hill in San Francisco, California, United States. Students are drawn from across San Francisco and the Bay Area.
Founded in 1957, the school has two divisions: Lower School (K-4) and Upper School (5--8), with approximately 265 students and 60 faculty and staff members. The head of the school is Burns Jones.
Cathedral is a member of the National Association of Independent Schools, the California Association of Independent Schools, National Association of Episcopal Schools, and the International Boys\' Schools Coalition. The school\'s motto is "Minds, Hearts, Hands, Voices."
## History
Spearheaded by Grace Cathedral\'s dean at the time, C. Julian Bartlett, as well as several local families, Cathedral School for Boys was founded as an alternative to the existing single-sex schools in San Francisco, as well as to provide the cathedral with a source of choristers for its choir of men and boys. The school opened in 1957 in the offices and crypt of Grace Cathedral with 10 students in 4th and 5th grades, slowly expanding to 1st through 8th grades by 1962 and opening a Kindergarten in 1972. The school reached its current size in 1995 with the addition of a second section in the Upper School grades, bringing the student body to a size of 265.
## Campus
Construction on the school\'s building began in 1965 on the northwest corner of the cathedral\'s close, and the building opened in September 1966. Since then, the school has undergone multiple expansions and renovations, most recently in 2021 with the competition of the Learning Commons and renovations of all the classrooms in the original school building.
## Students
Cathedral School has two divisions: the Lower School consists of grades K through 4, and the Upper School grades 5 through 8. Cathedral\'s primary entry points are in Kindergarten, and later in 5th and 6th grades where class sizes grow from 24 to 36 students. All students wear a uniform; in Lower School, students wear gray slacks, a blue Oxford shirt, and black shoes; Upper School students additionally wear a school-issued tie. For special occasions, students also wear a blazer with the school crest embroidered on the chest.
## Athletics
Cathedral offers school-organized sports for all students in every grade. Among the sports offered are soccer, cross country, and golf in the fall; basketball in the winter; and baseball, golf, track and field, and volleyball in the spring. Cathedral competes against other private schools in San Francisco and the Bay Area, and it uses its on-site gymnasium and nearby city fields as facilities. Cathedral\'s mascot is Forbes the Hawk.
## Music and performing arts {#music_and_performing_arts}
Dating back to its founding partly as a choir school for Grace Cathedral, Cathedral School maintains a robust music and performing arts program. Classes in those subjects are mandatory from kindergarten to eighth grade, and all students participate in one drama performance every year. Students in grades 3--8 participate in the Field Foundation Public Speaking Competition annually. Additionally, all second graders have the opportunity to audition for the Grace Cathedral Choir of Men and Boys, one of only a handful of remaining Episcopal men and boys cathedral choirs in the country. The 25 boys in the choir are all students at the school, while the men are a professional ensemble.

# Zeegendorf
**Zeegendorf** is a small village located in Bavaria, Germany. It is in Oberfranken (Upper Franconia), in the Bamberg district. Zeegendorf is a constituent community of Strullendorf.
## Geography
A stream called the Zeegenbach has its source east of the village, and then flows through the village.
The village has an elevation of about 400 meters.
Zeegendorf lies in the nature park \"Naturpark Fränkische Schweiz - Veldensteiner Forst.\"
## History
The first mention of the village was by Bishop Otto of Bamberg on July 25, 1109.
The village, along with several others in the area, fell victim to Swedish troops during the Thirty Years\' War in 1633.
The building of a church, St. Josef, was completed in 1952, and was consecrated on August 24 of that year. Three bells were installed in the church in 1966. In 1970, the village established a cemetery.
The village became incorporated into the community of Strullendorf on May 1, 1978.
In 2009, the village celebrated its 900-year anniversary with a festival.
## Culture
There are several community organizations in Zeegendorf:
- Marksmen/Sport-Shooting Club: \"Schützenverein St. Hubertus Zeegendorf 1957 e.V.\"
- Veteran\'s Group: \"Soldatenkameradschaft Zeegendorf\"
- Volunteer Fire Department: \"Freiwillige Feuerwehr Zeegendorf\"
Several businesses are in Zeegendorf, including a restaurant which has been open since 1964, known as "Gasthaus Stark."
The village\'s yearly Kirchweih (church consecration festival) is held on the Sunday after Assumption Day (\"Maria Himmelfahrt\"); however, when Assumption Day falls on a Sunday, then the Kirchweih is a week later.

# George Maclean
**George Maclean** (24 February 1801 -- 22 May 1847) was Governor of Gold Coast, now in Ghana, from 1830 until 1844.
## Life
Born in Keith, Banffshire, Scotland, he was the son of the minister, Rev, James Maclean, and his wife Elizabeth Tod, daughter of George Tod of Elgin. In the period 1815--7 he was an ensign in the 27th Foot, and then in the 91st Foot. In poor health, he retired from the Army in 1821.
Maclean was a member of the Royal African Colonial Corps, stationed in British West Africa from 1826 until 1828. In 1830 he became the Governor of Cape Coast, a position he retained until 1844.
In 1842 he was investigated by Richard Robert Madden, following the 1839 discovery by activists that British merchants operated from the Gold Coast were supplying slaving vessels. Madden found that Maclean had unfairly imprisoned 91 local people, some for as long as four years, on dubious grounds and without even the formality of a trial; and he also reported that Maclean illegally claimed that he had the authority to inflict capital punishment. Madden\'s enquiries, and subsequent parliamentary select committee, also concluded that Maclean lacked formal powers to act effectively against the trade, and the Colonial Office stepped in. Under the influence of James Stephen, the Gold Coast forts were detached from Sierra Leone and governed as a separate crown colony. Maclean came out of the investigation with credit.
Maclean was buried at Cape Coast Castle.
## Family
Maclean married poet Letitia Elizabeth Landon. They had no children. His half-brother, James (died 1877), a captain in the Gold Coast Corps, served under him

# George Abell (civil servant)
**Sir George Edmond Brackenbury Abell** `{{post-nominals|country=GBR|size=100%|KCIE|OBE}}`{=mediawiki} (22 June 1904 -- 11 January 1989) was an English civil servant and cricketer. Although his civil service career was the more significant, he was an excellent all-round sportsman, who won Blues for Oxford at cricket, rugby union and hockey as well as playing county cricket for Worcestershire. He was born in Worcester, and died at the age of 84 in Ramsbury, Wiltshire.
## Civil service career {#civil_service_career}
Abell was educated at Marlborough College and Corpus Christi College, Oxford. In 1928 he entered the Indian Civil Service and was posted to the Punjab. He was Private Secretary to the Governor of the Punjab 1941--43 and then private secretary to the last two viceroys of India, Lord Wavell and Lord Mountbatten. He was appointed OBE in 1943, and CIE in the 1946 New Year Honours. In 1947, shortly before Indian independence, he was knighted KCIE. He returned to the United Kingdom and was a director of the Bank of England 1952--64 and First Civil Service Commissioner 1964--67.
## Cricketing career {#cricketing_career}
Abell\'s first-class debut came for Worcestershire against Essex at Worcester in August 1923; he had a quiet match, claiming no dismissals and scoring 1 and 6 not out. Indeed, in three further appearances that season he appeared on the scorecard only once as a fielder: when he caught Gloucestershire captain Philip Williams off the bowling of Fred Root. Abell scored 50 in the second innings of this game, the only half-century he would make for nearly two years.
The 1924 season saw Abell play 12 first-class matches: seven for Oxford University and five for Worcestershire. His batting produced nothing of note (his highest score that season was just 23\*) but he held 12 catches and made two stumpings. The following year, however, he passed 500 runs for the only time in his career, this total including 124 for Worcestershire against Sussex. He also claimed 17 dismissals. From 1926 until 1928 he performed poorly with the bat, 50 being his highest score in 31 innings, but he continued to pick up victims behind the stumps.
From 1928--29 to 1934--35 he played all his first-class cricket in India for a variety of sides, including Europeans, the Punjab Governor\'s XI -- for whom he made 92 and 116 against Muslims in March 1929 -- and even on one occasion for India itself, against Ceylon. However, the undoubted highlight of his career was the 210 he scored for Northern India against Army in the first Ranji Trophy in 1934--35, the first double century made in the competition. Northern India reached the final for the only time that season; Abell captained them against Bombay but Vajifdar\'s second-innings 8--40 for Bombay ensured a heavy defeat for Northern India.
Abell returned to play in England during the second half of the 1935 season, and he also had a few matches in 1939. (His civil service commitments precluded more frequent appearances.) Most of these games were for Worcestershire, for whom he acted as captain three times in 1939, but he also turned out for Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC) on a handful of occasions. His final first-class game of all was at Lahore, as captain of Northern India against Southern Punjab in the 1941--42 Ranji Trophy. He made one stumping, held two catches and scored 11 and 2 as Northern India ran out 74-run winners.
Two of Abell\'s sons, John and Timothy, had very brief first-class careers. His brother-in-law Claude Ashton had had a much more substantial career with Essex and Cambridge, while his uncle Ted Sale turned out a few times for Europeans.
## Media
Abell was portrayed by British Actor Michael Byrne in the ITV television Miniseries Lord Mountbatten: The Last Viceroy in 1986, and by Ed Robinson in the Sony LIV Web Series Freedom at Midnight in 2024

# Budd XR-400
The **XR-400** was a fully operational concept car. A \"sporty\" youth-oriented convertible was built in 1962 by the Budd Company, an independent body builder in Detroit, Michigan, for evaluation by the fourth largest U.S. automaker at the time, American Motors Corporation (AMC).
## Origin
The XR-400 was developed and constructed by the Automotive Division of the Budd Company. The \"X\" stood for experimental and the \"R\" stood for Rambler. The trunk lid featured Rambler lettering as the intended customer of the car.
The objective of this car was to entice AMC to expand into a new market segment with a low-cost Rambler-based \"sports convertible.\" The Budd Company was a long-time supplier of tooling, parts, and bodies to automakers. Budd also worked with Nash Motors, AMC\'s predecessor company, to develop the 1941 Nash 600, the first unibody (unitized) automobile body in the United States in 1940, the predecessor of the modern mass-produced car.
Examples of Budd\'s experiments include the first all-plastic-bodied automobile developed for Studebaker in 1954. This prototype logged thousands of test miles on public roads. Its contracts included the manufacture of Thunderbird bodies for Ford starting in 1955 through 1957. In 1962, Budd proposed to replicate the original two-seat Thunderbird design on a Ford Falcon platform, but Ford rejected the idea. Budd\'s XT-Bird idea was then redeveloped using an AMC platform and shown to AMC.
Budd\'s already existing business with AMC would increase by having AMC proceed with developing its concept vehicle. Budd wanted to supply bodies and major sub-assemblies to the automaker for a production version of this new car. Budd estimated that the new model could be available for public sale by October 1963, six months ahead of the Ford Mustang.

# Budd XR-400
## Design
The XR-400 was built on a two-door 1962 Ambassador chassis. To keep costs down, Budd engineers kept the front of the unit body with the suspension in its existing position. However, the engine\'s position was lowered by two inches (51 mm) with new rear mounts. The radiator was moved down 3.5 in. The fan blades were shortened, as was the oil-filler neck. The air cleaner was relocated, the exhaust system was reshaped, and the gas tank was new.
The XR-400\'s long nose was achieved by extending the front section and adding a cowl behind it that held the battery. The car was styled by Budd with a relatively clean and uncluttered body, giving little indication of its Rambler sedan origin. A double crease in the beltline suggested a family relationship to the contemporary styling of Rambler\'s large-sized cars.
The proposed model was a true 2+2 (two front bucket seats plus limited-use seats for two back passengers) sleek, steel-blue convertible with a long hood and a short, stubby rear deck. The XR-400\'s long 108 in Ambassador wheelbase and truncated overhangs gave it athletic proportions. At the same time, the top-up appearance suggested a close-coupled two-seater sports car. Classic sports car touches included a hood line that slopped lower than the front fenders, doors that had a dip in their top, and simulated air extractors behind the front wheels.
Power for the XR-400 was supplied by a standard Ambassador two-barrel 250 hp 327 CID AMC V8 engine. The engine bay could accommodate any of AMC\'s I6 or V8 engines. The transmission was an automatic (not typical of sports cars for that time) controlled through a floor console-mounted shift lever. Braking was provided by an experimental front disc brake system.
The interior used AMC\'s front seats and many other hardware items. In classic sports car fashion, the driver had all controls and a complete set of instruments (speedometer, tachometer, as well as gauges for fuel, water temperature, amperes, and oil pressure) that mounted directly ahead of a three-spoke wood-rimmed Nardi (brand) steering wheel.
Budd\'s sales pitch to AMC included pioneering a market \"presently untapped by any other manufacturer\" with a car that \"unlike anything else on the road, it would attract widespread attention, provide your dealers with both a new profit area and morale-builder, and offer unusual advertising and sales promotion opportunities.\"
## Expectations
The experimental convertible was publicly exhibited at the 1964 meeting of the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE). The press release stated that the concept shows how modifying Rambler Ambassadors results in:
: *\"\... A brand new type of car---one designed specifically to take over a healthy segment of the new car market presently untapped by any American manufacturer\....\"*
Automotive press reports stated that such a new model could have appeared in AMC dealer showrooms, thus establishing a market segment at least six months before Ford\'s similar Mustang started the \"pony car\" market. Unfortunately, AMC turned down the idea. There were several reasons for this decision, including:
- American Motors\' President George W. Romney, who cemented the company as a maker of compact cars, left the company in February 1962 to run for governor of Michigan.
- The new model needed more interior room to compete successfully against other sporty compact cars already in the marketplace, such as the Chevrolet Corvair Monza and the Pontiac Tempest Le Mans.
- American Motors was developing entirely new models for 1963, and this was a significant capital drain. Entering an entirely new market segment with an unproven car could be risky.
- The automaker was working on a new compact fastback concept car called the Rambler Tarpon, which used the soon-to-be-introduced third-generation Rambler American platform.
## Legacy
The Budd Company kept the only prototype model, but later renamed it \"XR-Budd\" and used it for marketing purposes. The Rambler lettering on the rear of the trunk lid was removed, while the stamped steel wheels with full wheel covers were upgraded to chrome-plated reverse wheels with exposed lug nuts. Budd sold the prototype to The Henry Ford Museum in 1997. It is now at the museum and also displayed at major classic car shows

He earned Southland Conference Pitcher of the Year honors for UTA in `{{baseball year|1988}}`{=mediawiki}. He also earned a Bachelor of Science degree from the University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point in 1998 while serving as an assistant coach with the baseball team (1997--1998).
## Cincinnati Reds {#cincinnati_reds}
He was drafted by the Cincinnati Reds in the twelfth round of the 1988 Major League Baseball draft, and went 9--21 with a 2.80 earned run average and 72 saves over four seasons in their farm system to earn a call to Cincinnati in August `{{baseball year|1991}}`{=mediawiki}. He gave up three earned runs in fourteen innings over the remainder of the season. Foster began the `{{baseball year|1992}}`{=mediawiki} season with the Reds, but was optioned back to the triple A Nashville Sounds in the beginning of May. He pitched exceptionally once he returned, going 0--1 with a 2.13 ERA and two saves. The one loss came in his one career start against the New York Mets.
He began the `{{baseball year|1993}}`{=mediawiki} season as Rob Dibble\'s set-up man, but began experiencing arm trouble toward the end of May. In one of the most notoriously strange baseball injuries, Foster landed on the disabled list with an inflammation of his right shoulder after a segment on *The Tonight Show with Jay Leno* in which he threw baseballs at milk bottles.
After a monthlong trip to the DL, Foster returned for one appearance in June. After which, it was learned that Foster had detached cartilage in his right shoulder and would be out for the rest of the season. He had surgery, and began a rehab assignment with the Reds in Spring of `{{baseball year|1994}}`{=mediawiki}. After suffering numerous setbacks, he had a second surgery in August. After three brief appearances with the Chattanooga Lookouts, his career was over.

In `{{baseball year|2001}}`{=mediawiki}, he began managing the Wisconsin Woodchucks of the Northwoods Collegiate Summer Baseball League. Following the `{{baseball year|2003}}`{=mediawiki} season, he resigned to become youth pastor at Highland Community Church in Wausau, Wisconsin.
Foster returned to baseball in `{{baseball year|2005}}`{=mediawiki} as pitching coach for the Florida Marlins\' Class A South Atlantic League affiliate, the Greensboro Grasshoppers. After two seasons as a minor league coach, Foster became bullpen coach for the Florida Marlins from `{{baseball year|2007}}`{=mediawiki} to `{{baseball year|2009}}`{=mediawiki}, moving briefly into the pitching coach job toward the end of the 2007 season. On October 9, 2009, Foster declined the team\'s contract offer for the `{{baseball year|2010}}`{=mediawiki} season. Shortly afterwards, he joined the Kansas City Royals organization. The Royals bullpen, ranked second to last in the majors in 2009 with a 5.02 ERA, showed modest improvement each season since Foster grabbed the reigns (4.49 ERA in `{{baseball year|2010}}`{=mediawiki}, 3.75 in `{{baseball year|2011}}`{=mediawiki}).
On November 4, 2014, he was hired as the pitching coach for the Colorado Rockies. On October 26, 2021, it was announced that Foster would be named the Rockies director of pitching, replacing incumbent Mark Wiley.

# Ek Ruka Hua Faisla
***Ek Ruka Hua Faisla*** (English: *A Pending Decision*) is a 1986 Indian Hindi-language legal drama film directed by Basu Chatterjee. It is a remake of the Golden Bear winning American motion picture *12 Angry Men* (1957) directed by Sidney Lumet, which was an adaptation from a 1954 teleplay of the same name by Reginald Rose.
## Plot
The story begins in a courtroom where a teenage boy from a city slum is on trial for stabbing his father to death. Final closing arguments have been presented, and the judge then instructs the jury to decide whether the boy is guilty of murder, which carries a mandatory death sentence. Once inside the jury discussion room, it is immediately apparent that all jurors with the sole exception of juror Number 8 have already decided that the boy is guilty, and that they plan to return their verdict quickly, without taking time for discussion. His vote annoys the other jurors.
The rest of the film revolves around the jury\'s difficulty in reaching a unanimous verdict. While several of the jurors harbor personal prejudices, juror 8 maintains that the evidence presented in the case is circumstantial, and that the boy deserves fair deliberation. He calls into question the accuracy and reliability of the only two witnesses to the murder, the rarity of the murder weapon, and the overall questionable circumstances. He further argues that he cannot, in good conscience, vote guilty when he feels there is reasonable doubt of the boy\'s guilt and slowly convinces each juror about the same by his logical findings around each piece of evidence.

# Dougy
***Dougy*** is a 1993 young adult novel written by James Moloney, first published in 1993 by University of Queensland Press. By 2013 the National Library of Australia listed 18 editions of the novel in a variety of formats including book, audio book, braille and e-book. It is the first book in the *Gracey trilogy*, followed by *Gracey* (1994) and *Angela* (1998)
In 1994, *Dougy* was an Honour Book in the category of Older Readers in the Children\'s Book Council of Australia Awards. James Moloney taught for 2 years in outback Queensland and his observation from that time developed into the novel. \"I watched aboriginal children growing up, the difficulties they faced, the close family relations that mean so much and the ingrained prejudice of the dominant white culture around them.\" The book is dedicated to Douglas Collins, a student Moloney taught, who collapsed and died during a rugby game.
## Plot summary {#plot_summary}
The story as told by Dougy tells us about an aboriginal family living in a dump in Australia. Dougy is thirteen years old and lives in government subsidised housing with a seldom seen alcoholic father. His sister Gracey is a talented runner who wins a scholarship to a private school and this leads to resentment from the white community who see it as another government handout. The blacks and whites live an uneasy co-existence, but when an alarming incident occurs the underlying racial tension surfaces and violence erupts.
## Themes
There are several themes in the book relevant to teenagers and these make it useful as a set text in senior schools
- Relationships: between Dougy and Gracey and their family, mistrust between black and white communities; the closeness and support within the black community
- Identity: Dougy and Gracey lack of knowledge of and interest in their Aboriginality
- Racial issues: the uneasy co-existence of the black and white communities; resentment by white of blacks receiving government money; stereotyped attitudes
- Aboriginal Spirituality: connection to the land and stories through the legend of the *Moodagudda*
Dougy is a book that is showing stories about Dougy having to deal with racism and being left out. This is an important book, that we could show to kids that are about the ages 12-15 and they would be able to experience through Dougy how racism feels like

# Asymmetric bacterium
**Asymmetric bacteria** are bacteria that undergo \"non-symmetrical\" life cycles. This especially includes those that differentiate temporally, such as prosthecate bacteria.
## History
Cell division asymmetries have appeared alongside the evolution of complex developmental processes. While bacteria were historically considered symmetric simple cells, this idea has been overturned by novel technology and observation techniques. However, asymmetric bacteria remain difficult to detect. Asymmetrical growth aids in determining the age of bacteria, because it gives rise to an *old pole*, or region of inert cell wall material found at the ends of a rod-shaped bacterial cell. Following the \"old pole\" of the cell wall material allows an observer to create a bacterial lineage.
## Types of asymmetry {#types_of_asymmetry}
Bacteria exhibit three different types of asymmetry: **conditional** asymmetry, **reproductive** asymmetry, and **morphological** asymmetry.
Conditional asymmetry is well defined in the case of endospore formation, which is triggered by stressful environmental conditions such as increased heat, pH change, and nutrient depletion. This type of asymmetry is usually seen in Bacilli and Clostridia.
Reproductive asymmetry is classically linked to bacterial budding, where a mother cell concentrates cell wall material to one area and a daughter cell begins to bud from that thickening. Cell growth which gives rise to reproductive asymmetry occurs in three phases: stalk elongation, daughter cell elongation, and septum formation.
Morphological asymmetry is classified by polar elongation. In this type of asymmetrical growth, the daughter cell receives most of the new cell wall material

# Massachusetts Route 67
**Route 67** is a 24.81 mi north--south (though geographically more northeast-southwest) highway in western and central Massachusetts. Its southern terminus is at U.S. Route 20 (US 20) in Palmer and its northern terminus is at Route 32 in Barre.
## Route description {#route_description}
Route 67 begins at U.S. Route 20 in Palmer near the Palmer/Monson town line. The highway runs north and east along the Quaboag River and under Interstate 90/Mass Pike, without an intersection. Route 67 becomes concurrent with Route 19 in the center of Warren, running in a northeasterly direction for approximately three miles. At the intersection with Route 9 in West Brookfield along the southern shore of Wickaboag Pond, Route 19 ends and Route 67 turns east, running concurrent with Route 9 for approximately one mile to the center of West Brookfield. Route 67 then runs in a northeasterly direction into North Brookfield and becomes concurrent with Route 148 for about one mile (1.6 km) to the center of North Brookfield. After the concurrency ends, Route 67 goes through New Braintree and ends at Route 32 in Barre.
## History
In 1930, the section of Route 67 from U.S. Route 20 to Route 9 was part of US 20. By 1933, that section was unnumbered and Route 67 had been assigned to the road from East Brookfield to Barre. By 1939, Route 67 was shifted to its current routing.

# Jimmy White's 2: Cueball
***Jimmy White\'s 2: Cueball*** is a snooker and pool video game developed by Awesome Developments and published by Virgin Interactive as a sequel to *Jimmy White\'s \'Whirlwind\' Snooker*. It was originally released in 1999 for Windows and Dreamcast. A PlayStation version was released in 2000 in Europe and North America, with Bay Area Multimedia handling distribution for the latter territory. Archer Maclean, the designer of the original game, led the development team. The game includes mini-games connected with a pub setting. A Game Boy Color version of the game was released in 2000. A sequel to *Cueball*, called *Jimmy White\'s Cueball World*, was released in Europe for the PC in 2001. The game received mixed reviews from critics, with the PC and Dreamcast versions faring better than the PlayStation port.
## Gameplay
Gameplay is derived from a pool hall. The player can move between the main hallway, the snooker room, and the pool room. They can leave the game they were playing, and walk around the room, and begin other games without ending the earlier game they were playing. Cueball features a \"BeeCam\" option, which can be activated at any time. It follows an animated bee flying around the rooms serving as a cutscene to view the entire room. In the two games rooms, it has multiple routes. The player can explore the in-game world, referred to as \"Jimmy White\'s House\", which the in-game manual describes as \"a mock-up of the kind of house Jimmy White probably lives in.\" The game features single-player and local multiplayer.
A number of features from *Whirlwind Snooker* were improved upon for *Cueball*, most notably the graphical engine. The game uses a 3D accelerator card enabling the player to peruse the table and the entire snooker or pool room. The shadows and reflections of the balls are rendered in much more detail, as are the `{{cuegloss|cushion|cushions}}`{=mediawiki} and pockets. The computer player (represented by a pair of disembodied hands in white gloves) can be viewed from any angle while taking a `{{cuegloss|shot}}`{=mediawiki}; these hands also visibly replace the `{{cuegloss|colour ball|coloured}}`{=mediawiki} and `{{cuegloss|cue ball}}`{=mediawiki} once `{{cuegloss|pot|potted}}`{=mediawiki}.
Numerous items within the snooker and pool rooms are interactive. Some of them, such as the dartboard and draughts table, are mini-games. An arcade machine in the pool room features a fully playable version of *Dropzone*, one of Archer Maclean\'s earliest games. The pool room is a bar / diner featuring a jukebox and fruit machine. The game has a full classical soundtrack that can be controlled by the jukebox.
The game, like its predecessor, features comic elements. Should the computer player lay a particularly nasty `{{cuegloss|snooker}}`{=mediawiki}, an evil laugh is heard. Taking too long over a shot will send the computer player into a fit of sarcastic coughing. A soundbite of Homer Simpson exclaiming \"D\'oh!\" is heard when a player pockets the cue-ball.
## Development
A small team known as Awesome Developments, which would later become UTV Ignition Games, began developing *Cueball* in 1997. The game was originally made to be promoted by a different publisher; however, they wanted an association football game, rather than one designed around snooker. This publisher would later be assimilated into Electronic Arts. Virgin Interactive became the project\'s next publisher with a Game Boy Color version of the game published by Vatical Entertainment, and developed by Vicarious Visions.
With the PC version of the game reaching over 300 megabytes, the Vicarious Visions team created a two-dimensional Game Boy Color demo for the game with a much smaller size. Awesome Development\'s lead, Archer Maclean, commented that he had received an email regarding the Game Boy Color game: \"We\'ve run out of sprites on the Game Boy. Do you think anyone in Englandshire will know if the Snooker game is played with only 9 reds??\" The game was later released a year after the PC release, along with other console ports of the game.
Allister Brimble composed the game\'s soundtrack.

# Jimmy White's 2: Cueball
## Reception
*Jimmy White\'s 2: Cueball* received mixed reviews from critics, with the PC and Dreamcast versions faring better than the PlayStation port. David Zdyrko writing for IGN called the game \"painful\", saying the game \"lost a lot in its transition\" to the PlayStation but reviewed the PC version positively. *PSX Nation*{{\'s}} J.M. Vargas was less critical, scoring the PlayStation game at 66/100, with the reviewer enjoying the music and mini-games.
Whilst reviewing the Dreamcast version of the game, *Eurogamer* called it \"a highly polished and playable\" cue sports simulator. The reviewer did prefer the pool simulation over the snooker, which the game is published under, noting that whilst the pool mode was fun the snooker was \"a little too tricky for casual play\". *Now Gamer!* was more critical of the Dreamcast version, calling the game \"far from fun and enjoyable to play\". They did comment on the soundtrack saying \"the music is equally classical and fitting for the location\".
Reviewing the Dreamcast version, *Computer and Video Games* said \"as snooker games go, this is the best you\'ll find\". UK Magazine Dreamcast Monthly called it \"excellent\" and a good pick for people looking for a snooker or pool game, despite not being \"cutting edge entertainment.\" In reviewing the Game Boy Color release *Video Game Magazine* commented that whilst it was a good representation of the sport, the game\'s assets were \"colorless and are also lovelessly animated\". They also commented that it suffered from game crashes but was still a suitable representation of the sport. The *Daily Telegraph* reviewed the original *World Snooker Championship* game, commenting that whilst the game was a good snooker representation, *Cueball 2*, released 2 years prior was a \"far more varied and interesting\" game, and was \"superior\" \"in every respect\".

# Steer riding
**Steer riding** is a rodeo youth event that is an introductory form of bull riding for younger riders, usually between the ages of seven and fourteen. Instead of bucking bulls, the children ride steers that buck. Steers are used because they are known to have a less volatile temperament than bulls (steers are castrated while bulls are intact) and many breeds weigh less than bulls, which makes them a perfect stepping stone to junior bulls. The steers usually weigh between 500 and. Steer riding usually follows mutton busting and calf riding as the participant ages and grows. Many young and aspiring bull riders who train in steer riding compete in the National Junior Bullriders Association.
The National Junior Bullriders Association holds these annual contests:
- 6 & Under Mutton Busting
- 8 & Under Calf Riding
- 11 & Under Steer Riding
- 13 & Under Peewee Bullriding
- 15 & Under Jr. Bullriding
- 19 & Under Sr. Bullriding
Riders use equipment and riding techniques that are similar to adult bull riding. The steers are equipped with the following: a flank strap -- the flank strap is placed around a steer\'s flank, just in front of the hind legs, to encourage bucking. And then they also use a \"steer rope\" -- a rope that goes around the steer for the rider to hang onto with a bell underneath. The riders wear batwing chaps, and spurs. For safety, they use protective vests and helmets with a face mask that resemble those worn by hockey goalies.
Events are usually broken down by age brackets. Parental permission is required for their children to compete, and they must sign a liability waiver. It is possible for competitors to be seriously injured in the event.
Like bull riding, riders must stay on for eight seconds for a qualified ride. Half of the score is awarded for the cowboy\'s ability to ride, and the other half for the steer\'s ability to buck. One difference is that in some steer riding competitions, riders are allowed to hang on with both hands. They can choose to compete riding one-handed, like the adults, but if they do, they fall under the same rules as bull riding and can be disqualified for grabbing the steer with both hands. Riders can also be disqualified for touching the animal or themselves during the ride. Failure to stay on for the full 8 seconds or a disqualification results in a no score.
Riding steers allows riders to develop needed skills before taking on bulls. As bulls are being bred to be more athletic and dangerous, it is more important than ever for adolescent, teenagers, and young adults to get all of the experience they need before taking on bulls. One man, a former PRCA World Champion Bull Rider, Cody Custer, discusses this issue at length on his web site. When youngsters take on \"junior bulls\" that only a decade or two ago were considered pro level bulls, they have an extremely low success rate and get discouraged or injured beyond what is reasonably acceptable.
There are also some steers not used in rodeo who have been trained not to buck and instead are gentled to be ridden. Most people who have trained their cattle to be ridden have used them to perform similar tasks which horses perform, such as trail riding, jumping, and running. However, they do require different maintenance and handling than horses. Some breeds of cattle are more conducive than others

# Work: A Story of Experience
***Work: A Story of Experience***, originally serialized and first published in book form in 1873, is a semi-autobiographical novel by Louisa May Alcott, the author of *Little Women.* It is set in the times before and after the American Civil War. The protagonist, Christie Devon, leaves her home to make a living on her own. She goes from job to job, eventually marries, and becomes a social activist when her husband dies. Alcott wrote the book over the course of several years and based it in part on her own experiences as a young woman in the workforce. Following publication, contemporary critical reviews were mixed, with some reviewers praising the plot\'s execution and others criticizing it. The novel\'s themes include women\'s participation in the workforce, domesticity and equality, personal independence, social reform, and mental health.
## Background and publication history {#background_and_publication_history}
Originally entitling it *Success*, Alcott wrote *Work: A Story of Experience* over the span of several years. She originally began the novel when she was eighteen years-old. She picked it up again as a twenty-eight-year-old in January 1861, but took a break to nurse her ill mother. She continued *Work* in 1863 during her recovery following a bout of typhoid fever contracted during her service as a nurse in the American Civil War. She recommenced the novel in 1872 when in November Henry Ward Beecher of *The Christian Union* requested a serialized novel. Alcott agreed, needing the money after having just paid for her father to go on a speaking tour. When she began writing, Alcott fell into what she called a \"vortex\", explaining that she \"Can\'t work slowly; the thing possesses me, and I must obey till it\'s done.\" Her writing was interrupted by various circumstances, including the Great Boston Fire of 1872. Along with others, Alcott evacuated the city. In January she was able to continue writing for hours a day, preparing three copies of the final draft to send to *The Christian Union* as well as her American and British book publishers. She wrote on impression paper and pressed so hard that her thumb was paralyzed for a time and damaged for the rest of her life; when this happened, she wrote with her other hand.
In writing the book Alcott drew upon \"The Public Function of Woman\" by Theodore Parker, in which he argued that the innovations accompanying industrialism would lighten a woman\'s domestic load, allowing her to work for money if she wished. Alcott used the sermon to model the protagonist Christie\'s experiences in the workforce. Alcott identified Parker as the model for the character Reverend Power. Additionally, she based the characters David Sterling on Henry David Thoreau and Hepsey Johnson on Harriet Tubman, both of whom she personally knew. The protagonist, Christie, has various jobs which reflect jobs Alcott took as a young woman during her struggle to find employment following the death of her sister Elizabeth in 1858. Alcott biographer Ruth K. MacDonald suggests that the name Christie Devon may have been Alcott\'s stage name during a stint with the Boston Theatre Company, as the name appears in a list of the participants.
Upon the novel\'s completion in February 1873, Alcott dedicated it with the following inscription: \"To my mother, whose life has been a long labor of love.\" Alcott felt unsatisfied with the finished product because she felt that the interruptions weakened the novel\'s quality. The novel was serialized in *The Christian Union* from 1872-1873 and published in book form in June 1873 by Roberts Brothers. There were 15,000 pre-orders of the book, which set back the date of publication. Solomon Eytinge drew illustrations for the book version. Alcott donated some of the proceeds from sales to support the poor. In 1875 Sampson Low published *Beginning Again. Being a Continuation of Work,* which consists of the last eleven chapters of the Roberts Brothers edition.

# Work: A Story of Experience
## Plot
Twenty-one-year-old orphan Christie Devon decides to leave her aunt and uncle to support herself financially and travels to the city, where she becomes a housekeeper. While there, she befriends the cook, Hepsey Johnson, who is a former slave, and teaches her how to read and count so she can free her family. After a year, Christie loses her job after a fire-related accident. Christie befriends two actresses who help Christie become an actress. Three years later, an accident at the theater injures Christie and she decides to quit. Following her recovery, she becomes a governess for the Saltonstall family. Mrs. Saltonstall\'s brother, Philip Fletcher, falls in love with Christie. When he proposes, she refuses because he does not see her as an equal. Because she refused the proposal, Christie decides she can no longer work for the Saltonstalls. Instead, she becomes the companion of Helen Carrol, an invalid. Christie interests Helen, and after several months, Helen\'s health improves. Helen becomes anxious after finding out that her youngest sister Bella has a beau. Helen explains to Christie that insanity runs in the family and she is worried that Bella, who does not know about it, will pass it on to her children. Helen reveals her own insanity and later commits suicide. Bella finds out about the hereditary insanity, deciding not to marry.
Christie leaves the Carrols and becomes a seamstress, meeting another seamstress, Rachel. When their employer finds out that Rachel is a fallen woman, Rachel is fired. Christie pleads on Rachel\'s behalf and is also fired. Christie offers Rachel a home, but she is afraid of ruining Christie\'s reputation and leaves. Christie finds another sewing job, becomes ill, falls into debt, and is about to lose her room and board. As she contemplates suicide, Rachel, who now helps destitute women, finds her and refers her to Cynthy Wilkins, who gives her a temporary home. Cynthy invites Christie to listen to Reverend Power. Rev. Power recommends Christie to Mrs. Sterling, a widowed Quaker woman in the country. Mrs. Sterling has a son, David, who lives with her and is a florist; David is sorrowful because he believes his sister died long ago. When Christie arrives, she becomes the Sterlings\' house assistant. Christie notices that, though ostensibly cheerful, David is unhappy. He confesses to Christie that he is unsatisfied with a quiet life but stays for his mother\'s sake. After seeing this side of David, Christie falls in love with him. She attempts to stifle her romantic feelings because he sees her as a friend, but they remain.
The Sterlings\' previous assistant, Kitty, arrives to escape an engagement. Kitty flirts with David, and Christie grows jealous when she suspects that David is developing romantic feelings for Kitty. Christie decides to leave and becomes Rev. Power\'s secretary. Rev. Power regularly hosts gatherings at his house, which both Christie and David attend. One night Philip attends and Christie introduces him to David. Afterward, Philip attends regularly while David stops coming. Though Christie is not in love with Philip, she considers marrying him for financial security. When Christie asks Cynthy for advice, she tells Christie to marry for love, not money. Christie declines Philip\'s second proposal. David visits Christie and shares that he has discovered his sister Letty is alive, explaining that Letty and Rachel are the same person. He explains that he forbade her from returning home after she eloped, since then regretting it and thinking she was dead. He asks Christie to return, confessing his love for her and his jealousy of Philip. She agrees, and they return together.
Shortly after, the American Civil War begins. A year later, David enlists and Christie decides to serve as a nurse. Two months later, David is called to duty and marries Christie before leaving. Though Christie is working in the hospital and David is in the camp, they visit each other frequently. Several months through their service, David is fatally wounded while liberating a slave woman. Christie stays with him until he dies, then returns home and prepares to give birth to their baby. Years later, Bella Carrol visits and asks for employment advice. Christie, who still runs David\'s greenhouse and advocates for working-class women, asks Bella to create a group that discusses social reform. Christie and several women commit to supporting each other in their work.

# Work: A Story of Experience
## Reception
Alcott\'s *Work: A Story of Experience* received a mix of positive and negative critical reviews. While the *Boston Daily Advertiser* praised Alcott\'s depiction of the working class, the *Daily Evening Traveller* proclaimed that it was \"likely to be a rival\" in popularity with Alcott\'s other novels. Boston\'s *The* *Evening Post* felt that it lacked the cheerfulness of her other works and criticized its \"sudden \'ups and downs\'\". The *Worcester Evening Gazette* opined that \"the finished book is one which women love, and men find mildly interesting, if no more.\" The *Springfield Daily Republican* wrote that the \"teachings \[were\] sound and attractive\" but felt it would have been a better novel if there was more tragedy and wrongdoing among the characters. The *Springfield Daily Union* considered the plot haphazard and stated that the novel was likely to prevent women from working, though it saw the book as a \"plea for independence for woman through work\". *The Ladies\' Repository* concluded that serializing the novel led to its episodic style. In speaking of the episodic structure, *Appletons\' Journal* wrote that the book was \"a mosaic of good things, badly put together\".
Mary Thacher of *Old and New* praised the \"absences of the current slang-phrases\" that show up in Alcott\'s other works. Thacher also expressed a dislike for the chapter about Helen Carrol, calling it \"melodramatic\" with a \"morbid tinge\". The *Saturday Review of Politics, Literature, Science, and Art* called Helen\'s suicide a \"horrible climax\" and claimed that this chapter was not \"good art\", stating that only writers similar to Edgar Allan Poe should write things like it. In its review, *The Literary World* commended the novel\'s dialogue, calling it the best found in Alcott\'s works; it also stated that the book would \"come very near doing positive good\". *Eclectic Magazine* opined that \"it is no more \'a story of experience\' than Utopia is a sketch of existing social conditions\" and declared that Alcott was better at writing children\'s books. *Harper\'s New Monthly Magazine* criticized the plot design while claiming that readers would be inspired by the story. The *Lakeside Monthly* felt there was an \"undeniable insufficiency of imagination, thought, and sentiment\" and argued that Philip Fletcher undergoes more character development than David Sterling does. *The Nation* was also critical of the novel\'s lack of imagination, declaring that it was \"nothing as a work of art\".
When the Alcotts hired a new housekeeper following the novel\'s publication, they found out that she had read *Work* and decided to follow Christie\'s example.

# Work: A Story of Experience
## Themes and analysis {#themes_and_analysis}
### Experience in the workforce {#experience_in_the_workforce}
*Work: A Story of Experience* explores women\'s experiences with the workforce in the mid-to-late 19th century. Jelena Šesnić, an English professor at the University of Zagreb, explains that Alcott examines the relationship between the domestic space, the workforce, and femininity, combining the public and private spheres for her female characters. Though women in the 19th century were generally expected to stay within the private sphere while the public sphere was reserved for men, the narrative explores the effect female traits have on society, according to Tara Fitzpatrick. She argues that *Work* pushes against the social expectations of separate spheres for men and women but eventually submits to them. Šesnić suggests that the novel reflects the transcendentalist perception that a person has a life\'s work. In the narrative, work leads to rewards such as platonic and romantic love, self-reliance, and individuality, making work itself a reward.
The novel examines the social and personal effects of female participation in the workforce. It was originally entitled *Success* but was later changed to *Work*; Adams argues that this change reflects active participation rather than achievement in the workforce. In the transcendental movement, work was viewed as a means of gaining experience. The novel indicates that a woman undergoes self-development as she works various jobs. Christie keeps this in mind as she teaches women that different jobs open new opportunities. Work is portrayed as generally redemptive; it is when she is out of work that Christie contemplates suicide. According to author and literary analyst Sylvia Jenkins Cook, the narrative \"explores the role work plays in women\'s lives in a more expansive social and intellectual context than that of any previous novel of the century.\" California Polytechnic State University English professors Kathleen Lant and Angela M. Estes suggest that it does not outline the life of a working woman but rather that it proposes a possible future for the working woman. It addresses middle-class women who work out of both desire and need. In the 1870s, it was unconventional to view a working woman as socially acceptable, says Sarah Lahey. Christie, who is a \"self-identified working woman\", works to earn money and gain a sense of fulfillment.
Literary critics have identified tensions in the novel that exist between different social classes in the workforce. Christie believes that women\'s jobs should align with their social status; her advice to Bella is to begin social reform in the upper class to which she belongs. Hendel claims that this encourages \"class separation\" within the workforce. Christie herself avoids taking factory jobs because she feels it would be below her social class of gentlewoman, and English professor Carolyn Maibor argues that \"ethnic prejudice\" comes out when Christie refuses to work with Irish women. Kathryn Dolan, assistant English professor at Missouri University of Science and Technology claims that Alcott\'s handling of immigrants, class differences, and race is \"somewhat problematic\". Professor and author Susan K. Harris points out that Alcott does not illustrate interactions between working women and working men. However, the book outlines what Alcott saw as risks of labor, such as struggles with physical and mental health. As a seamstress, Christie experiences a break in her mental and physical health because she overworks and experiences poor working conditions. She also struggles socially. Labor for wages is portrayed as less beneficial than working for \"self-improvement\".
### Domesticity and equality {#domesticity_and_equality}
Šesnić argues that *Work* does not entirely refute domesticity. Instead, Šesnić argues that the novel suggests a \"revision\" for domesticity rather than a dissolution. Fitzpatrick argues that Alcott reshapes the domestic sphere in the novel. In the narrative, domestic skills benefit a larger sphere than the domestic space. Dolan claims the book concludes that domesticity is the most satisfactory vocation for women in conjunction with participation in public activities, such as voting. The last half of the novel focuses on Christie\'s search for a place within a domestic sphere, which establishes her as \"both nurturer and provider\". The plot takes its domestic turn when Christie realizes the workforce is competitive. She takes on domestic work in the Wilkins household after Rachel rescues her from committing suicide. Christie\'s domestic skills further aid her when she works for the Sterlings as a household assistant. In the Sterling household, \"domestic labor \[is\] performed equally by men and women\", leading to equality in Christie\'s relationship with David. Christie feels unsatisfied with domestic work until she falls in love with David. During her relationship with David, Christie decides she wants to live and work within a domestic sphere. Because of her domestic focus during their relationship, she does not encounter a need to balance employment and domesticity. In Strickland\'s view, the novel calls for equality in marriage. The emphasis on their equal partnership, says Strickland, is furthered when they both marry in their military uniforms. Christie deems her military service worthwhile and feels free \"from the constraints of either the traditional family home or economic necessity.\"

## Themes and analysis {#themes_and_analysis}
### Struggle for independence {#struggle_for_independence}
According to Jean Fagan Yellin, *Work: A Story of Experience* explores whether or not women could \"live an independent life in America\". Katherine Adams explains that, \"rather than reading\...\[it\] *for* feminism,\...we can read it *as* feminists\", while Sarah Elbert argues that it outlines Alcott\'s first-wave feminism. According to Elbert, it compiles \"the broad set of beliefs encompassing family, education, suffrage, labor and the moral reform of social life that defined feminist ideology in the nineteenth century.\" Outlining women\'s challenges while finding new roles in society, the novel discusses female independence---an aberration from \"early women\'s didactic novels\". According to literary analysts, the novel argues against female dependency and for more female participation in society. Erin Hendel, a technical writer at Rocky Mountain Institute who holds a doctorate degree in English, suggests that, in her desire to join the workforce, Christie demonstrates Ralph Waldo Emerson\'s belief that people who work gain \"self-knowledge\". Until her search for independence, Christie has experienced little outside the domestic sphere. When Christie decides to leave her aunt and uncle, she announces, \"There is going to be a new Declaration of Independence.\" Her announcement reflects the Declaration of Sentiments from the Seneca Falls Convention. Christie leaves home because she wants \"individualism; she disavows patriarchy, marriage, gender-conformity, and capitalism.\" Through her search for independence, Christie learns about \"herself and the world\", reflecting Emerson\'s conception that people can become self-reliant.
The jobs that Christie takes are some of the only ones available to women at the time. That Christie\'s skills are largely based on domesticity limits what jobs she is able to take because her education does not reflect what employers want. At first, she is only able to take jobs in domestic service, which leads her to feel degraded. After learning about Hepsey Johnson\'s experience with slavery, Christie decides to view her work differently. With Hepsey\'s help, she is able to \"preserve a sense of identity even when that identity is continually denied\" by her employers. Hepsey gains independence in the workforce because she is able to earn money to free her enslaved family members. Throughout her first few jobs, Christie explores different female roles and also mimics behavior she observes in wealthy women. According to author Katherine Adams, during her time as an actress Christie examines her own ideas about women in society through her role as an Amazon queen. Amazons shunned men except for propagation purposes. Christie notices that the other actresses are afraid of the stage manager, who watches them with a male gaze. Christie expects to gain female independence as an actress but realizes she is in bondage to her acting. Discussing later events in the narrative, Alcott scholar Ruth K. MacDonald explains that while it is difficult for both Christie and Rachel to become independent, it is harder for Rachel because she is a fallen woman. Elbert argues that Christie is unable to gain independence on her own but is able to gain it with the help of other people.
Carolyn Maibor suggests that, in Alcott\'s view, \"self-reliance, in both a philosophical and a financial sense, is always preferable to any kind of dependency.\" Throughout the book, women who are married and financially stable are portrayed as unproductive women who are subject to their husbands. As an alternative to employment, Christie considers marrying Philip Fletcher for his money. When she decides that marriage to him would stifle her independence, she refuses his proposal. For her, independence is gained by working for money. Helen Carrol\'s mother married Mr. Carrol while knowing insanity ran in his family because she desired financial and social stability. Harris argues that Mrs. Carrol\'s perspective on her marriage smothers her individuality. Helen\'s individuality is also affected by her mother\'s marriage because she feels that she cannot marry so as to not pass on the gene.

# Work: A Story of Experience
## Themes and analysis {#themes_and_analysis}
### Social reform {#social_reform}
In Elbert\'s perspective, the novel\'s social reform for women includes education, increased job opportunities, and female participation in the public sphere. Yellin concludes that its discussions on slavery are less \"forceful\" than its discussions on gender equality. Author Charles Strickland argues that it addresses gender, class, and racial barriers to employment. Characters such as Cynthy Wilkins, Rev. Power, and David Sterling belong to a group of social reformers. Strickland explains that, at the time Alcott wrote the book, social reform groups were becoming common. Those who help Christie after her period of mental illness run untraditional homes where one gender is not considered superior to the other. In their relationship, Christie and David seek to adopt each other\'s gender traits in an effort to create a cooperative partnership. Christie\'s desire is for a partnership based on male-female equality.
David tries to make restitution for shunning his sister by helping destitute women. Because of this, Hollins University English professor Elizabeth Lennox Keyser says, David has \"nurturing qualities\" and lacks \"traditional male traits like ambition\". David imitates traditionally female characteristics because he believes they are desirable. In the war, Christie and David are able to use their domestic or traditionally feminine traits, such as \"self-sacrifice\", to aid the nation. According to Keyser, David\'s death by saving a slave woman stems from his conviction that women are valuable to society. As he dies, he asks Christie to perpetuate his social reform. Christie does, through which Alcott establishes a socially influential woman in Christie. Christie moves into the public sphere as she advocates for working women. Working in social reform allows her to discover her individuality while preserving her feminine traits. Though she wants to be a gentlewoman early in the novel, by the end she realizes she finds more satisfaction in social reform than in fine society. Strickland points out that the details of Christie\'s social reform are \"vague\". Her social reform consists of aiding women who have struggled in the workforce, and she seeks to help them based on her own struggles. Specifically, she mediates between middle-class female philanthropists and lower-class working women because they have difficulty understanding each other\'s perspectives. Tara Fitzpatrick suggests that, through this, the book calls for a resolution of class barriers. Mediating between these women indicates that Christie works with domestic and employment concerns, says Šesnić. Christie also asks Bella Carrol to encourage equality between men and women within her own social class.
#### Female collaboration {#female_collaboration}
As a social reformer, Christie creates a community of working women. These working women collaborate to support each other in their search for and struggles with employment. Kornacki explains that Christie\'s social reform efforts are similar to Margaret Fuller\'s methods. In her Boston Conversations directed toward women, Fuller discussed \"education, self-reliance, vocation, and sorority.\" Fuller sought to decrease female rivalry and believed that women should come together in their search for self-reliance. Christie creates a sorority of working women of different races, social classes, and ages. Her group, made possible through David\'s death, parallels the New England Woman\'s Club, to which Alcott belonged. Fuller also discussed a \"female messiah\" in her piece *Woman in the Nineteenth Century*. Alcott creates this in Christie, who has a \"ministry to American women\", say Lant and Estes. She begins her \"redemption\" of women when she befriends Rachel. When she is fired, Rachel calls for social reform in which fallen women are not rejected by their communities; Christie answers this call by pleading for Rachel; her plea later leads to the formation of her female community. In turn, Rachel redeems Christie when she contemplates suicide. Christie builds her female community over the course of the novel, Hepsey, Cynthy, and Mrs. Sterling being among the first members. Christie\'s daughter Ruth joins Christie\'s community, which Cook says indicates the next generation\'s involvement in women\'s rights. Yellin suggests that in the middle of the book Christie denies herself of the female support she desires because she limits her work options based on class. Yellin further states that Christie\'s lack of experience as an industrial factory worker would make it difficult for her to mediate between working-class and middle-class women due to a lack of knowledge in that area of labor.
### Mental health {#mental_health}
Keyser suggests that Helen Carrol\'s poor mental condition is worsened by her family\'s secrecy and limited sympathy. In turn, Helen grows to hate herself for her mental illness. After Helen\'s suicide, Christie seeks to prevent Bella from going insane and committing suicide by encouraging Mrs. Carrol to be open about Helen\'s condition with her. Through the years, Bella is able to maintain her sanity as well as that of her brother by dedicating her time to him. Keyser argues that Bella\'s story demonstrates a redemption that comes from sharing stories of personal difficulty. Later, Christie experiences her own struggle with mental health after losing her sewing job. She lacks a female support system, which Keyser suggests factors into her suicide contemplation. Author and English professor Glenn Hendler analyzes Christie\'s struggle, arguing that she experiences a \"crisis\" of identity when she considers suicide, projecting herself onto an oar floating in the river below. As a young woman Alcott talked herself out of suicide, while Christie is rescued by Rachel. Yellin explains that other female protagonists in 19th-century literature who sought individuality typically committed suicide. After her mental and physical health improve, Christie grows less ambitious and turns to \"hero-worship\", setting up Rev. Power and David Sterling as her heroes

# Toronto railway line
The **Toronto Branch Railway Line** is a heritage-listed closed railway line in New South Wales, Australia. The line opened in 1891, and branched off the Main Northern line at Fassifern station, crossing over a single lane tunnel on Fassifern Road, and following the shore of Fennell Bay to Blackalls Park. The Toronto end of the line is located close to the shore of Toronto Bay.
Horse-drawn carriages were first to run along the branch line. A variety of steam engines also ran along the line during its operation, including a Coffee Pot engine, and the Prince of Wales travelled to Toronto by train on 24 June 1920.
Passenger services operated over the line, generally as a shuttle service between Fassifern and Toronto, but through services to Newcastle also operated. Services in 1989 were operated by 620/720 class diesel railcars and operated as frequently as every 20 minutes. The line was not included in the Wyong--Newcastle electrification project, completed in 1984, which probably sealed its fate. It was controversially closed in 1990 despite local opposition, with a privately operated bus service replacing the train. Following the closure, a cycleway called the *Toronto Greenway* was constructed along the line. Most of the cycleway was constructed alongside the railway line in case the line is ever reopened. The replacement bus service runs from Fassifern Station to Toronto Station and includes a stop at Blackalls Park.

# Cielito Lindo
**\"Cielito Lindo\"** is a Mexican folk song or *copla* popularized in 1882 by Mexican author Quirino Mendoza y Cortés (c. 1862 -- 1957). It is roughly translated as \"Lovely Sweet One\". Although the word *cielo* means \"sky\" or \"heaven\", it is also a term of endearment comparable to \"sweetheart\" or \"honey\". *Cielito*, the diminutive, can be translated as \"sweetie\"; *lindo* means \"cute\", \"lovely\" or \"pretty\". The song is commonly known by words from the refrain, \"Canta y no llores\", or simply as the \"Ay, Ay, Ay, Ay song\".
Commonly played by mariachi bands, it has been recorded by many artists in the original Spanish as well as in English and other languages, including by Tito Guizar, Pedro Infante, Vicente Fernandez, Placido Domingo, Luciano Pavarotti, Eartha Kitt, The Wiggles, Menudo and Ana Gabriel. It also featured prominently in the iconic Mexican film *Los tres Garcia*. There is some debate as to whether the song\'s lyrics refer to the Sierra Morena, a mountain range in southern Spain, or the similarly named Sierra de Morones, in the Mexican state of Zacatecas. However most Mexicans believe that this is a misrepresentation of the lyrics and is intended as \"la Sierra, Morena\", \"Morena\" is a common term of endearment, and with the comma, it now means he is directly speaking to the woman in the song instead of a specific place. It has become a famous song of Mexico, especially in Mexican expatriate communities around the world or for Mexicans attending international events such as the Olympic Games or the FIFA World Cup.
## Lyrics
The song\'s lyrical scheme corresponds to the Castilian classical stanza known as the *seguidilla*, i.e. seven lines of alternating heptasyllabic and pentasyllabic verses. Lyrics vary widely from performer to performer, and every singer is free to add and remove some verses for his or her own interpretation. Some of the most traditional lyrics are the following:
+-----------------------------------+----------------------------------------------+------------------------------------+

In the article \"*¡Hasta que me cayó el veinte!*\", Ortega discusses the origins of the first verse of this song. His research discovered that in the early 17th century, armed bandits would take refuge in the Sierra Morena mountains of Spain and that people feared for their lives when they had to travel through the region. The words of the first verse of \"Cielito Lindo\" were found in a song from that era, hinting at that fear. But with time the meaning of the verse changed as people began romanticizing it. \"Your face is the Sierra Morena. Your eyes are thieves who live there.\" The verse had other melodies put to it and variations on the lyrics. Quirino Mendoza, the composer, adapted the verse to his own melody and gave us the song we know today.

## \"Cielito lindo huasteco\" {#cielito_lindo_huasteco}
\"Cielito Lindo\" should not be confused with another popular and traditional song called \"Cielito lindo huasteco\" also known as \"Cielito lindo\" from La Huasteca in Mexico. This song, distinctly different from the common version above, has been played by many *conjuntos huastecos*, as it is considered one of the most popular Son Huasteco or Huapango songs. While the music is quite different, the lyrics of both songs have a similar metric structure, and both use the phrases *cielito lindo* and *ay ay ay ay* as fillers, though in different places within the stanza.
Some singers, for example Julio Iglesias, perform the song under the title *De domingo a domingo*, taken from the first words of the lyrics as sung in that version; as with the other song, the lyrics used vary widely among performers, and some borrow stanzas from the former. One frequently sung stanza has the words *Árbol de la esperanza, mantente firme* (\"Tree of hope, stay firm\") which appear in an eponymous painting by Frida Kahlo.
Sometimes mariachis perform combined versions of \"Cielito Lindo\" and \"Cielito lindo huasteco\" which are completely different, thus creating some confusion about both

# Sheekhaal
The **Sheekhaal** (var. **Sheikhaal**, *شيخال*), also known as **Fiqi Cumar** is a clan that inhabits Somalia, Ethiopia, Djibouti and with considerable numbers also found in the Northern Frontier District (NFD) in Kenya.
## Overview
Sheekhal traces its ancestry to Sheikh Abadir Umar Ar-Rida, also known as *Fiqi Umar*, who in turn traced his lineage to the first caliph, Abu Bakr (Sayid Abubakar Al-Sadiq).
According to the explorer Richard F. Burton, in his book *First Footsteps in East Africa,* the Sheekhaal are described as the only Somalis who maintain a tradition of genealogy not derived from Dir and Darood. They claim descent from \"Caliph Abu Bakr\" and asserted that their ancestor *Khutab bin Fakih Umar* crossed over from Al-Hijaz to the Horn of Africa. Fiqi Umar crossed over with his six sons: Umar the Greater, Umar the Lesser, the two Abdillahs, Ahmad and Siddik. Sheikh Ar-Rida is also regarded the patron saint of Harar. The lineage goes back to Banu Taym, through the first Caliph Abu Bakr.
Some clans of Sheekhaal would argue that while they are politically aligned with the larger Hawiye clan, this does not mean that they are Hawiye. This view is shared by the Aw-Qutub, one of the Sheekhaal subclans; they too totally reject the notion that the Sheekhal clan are part of Hawiye. Lobogay (Loboge) are considered part of (Hiraab, Aw Qudub and Gendershe and Ali).
Lewis (1982) mentions that the largest clan of the Sheikhal is the Reer Fiqi Omar, whose most important lineage, the Reer Aw Qutub, inhabit the Somali Region of Ethiopia. The Sheekhal clans were reportedly considered as part of the Hawiye politically until after the civil war.
General Mohamed Ibrahim Liiqliqato, who was a Sheikhal, described in his book how the Sheikhal became associated with the Hawiye and added as 'Martileh Hiraab' (literally meaning *guests of Hiraab*). The Sheekhaal are also mentioned to be one of the religious groups of Somalia along with the Asharaf.
The Wardiq a now sub clan of Issa are historically associated with the Sheekhal.

## Career
In 1980 Hollingworth worked as an assistant floor manager on the BBC\'s televised adaptation of *Pride and Prejudice*. She gradually worked her way up the BBC ladder, she was Production Manager or 1st Assistant Director on a number of *Doctor Who* series produced by John Nathan-Turner. She began producing for the BBC in the latter part of 1989, contributing to the BBC soap opera *EastEnders* initially as a production associate and later as an associate producer, under then producer Mike Gibbon. She later became co-producer, with Richard Bramall, under new executive producer, Michael Ferguson in 1990. Following Ferguson\'s departure, she became co-producer with Pat Sandys, formerly of ITV\'s *The Bill*.
After leaving *EastEnders* at the end of 1991 she began working on the BBC\'s ill-fated soap *Eldorado* (1992--1993) --- for which she was the series producer following Julia Smith. Hollingworth was brought in to turn the soap around following declining ratings and heavy media criticism, but despite adding a million viewers the soap was eventually axed by the BBC controller, Alan Yentob, in 1993.
She went on to produce for the popular medical drama *Casualty* (1994--1996), pushing up viewing figures to almost 18 million by switching the focus to the love lives of the characters. The changes she implemented were popular with viewers. However, they were less popular with some of the cast members, in particular Derek Thompson, who plays the long-running character Charlie Fairhead. Thompson believed the show had become \"like a mindless soap opera\" and was in danger of losing the edge that had made it one of the most controversial programmes on television. He revealed that he nearly quit the role in protest, but decided to remain when he discovered that Hollingworth was leaving the show in 1996.
In addition to producing for *Casualty*, Hollingworth returned to *EastEnders* from 1995 to 1996 as the programme\'s executive producer, taking over from Barbara Emile and eventually replaced by Jane Harris. At *EastEnders* she was responsible for storylines such as Michelle Fowler falling pregnant to her nemesis Grant Mitchell; and Ricky Butcher\'s love triangle with his wife Sam and girlfriend Bianca Jackson. Hollingworth\'s contributions to the soap were awarded in 1997 when *EastEnders* won the BAFTA for \"Best Drama Series.\" Hollingworth shared the award with producer Jane Harris.
She left the BBC in 1996 to become the controller of drama for Britain\'s fifth terrestrial channel, five. Her defection was one of several high-level \"poachings\" from the BBC by Dawn Airey, Channel 5\'s director of programmes. Hollingworth, along with Mal Young, were the co-creators of the channel\'s flagship soap opera, *Family Affairs*, for which she was also the executive producer.
She left five in 2003 and in 2004 she moved to ITV to become the Head of Continuing Series, taking over from Antony Wood. Her remit covered a wide range of shows including soaps and returning series such as *Bad Girls*, *Footballers Wives*, *Taggart*, *Where the Heart Is*, *Fat Friends*, *The Bill*, *Heartbeat* and *The Royal*. She left this position in March 2008

**Catherine** \"**Kate**\" **de Castelbajac** (born **Katherine Lee Chambers** in Santa Barbara, California) is a former model and fashion journalist who now works as an image consultant and educator. She is the founder of **CdeC Academy of Santa Barbara** and is affiliated with the Association of Image Consultants International.
## Early life and education {#early_life_and_education}
Kate Chambers was born in Santa Barbara, California, to William Joseph Chambers and Lillian Chambers, and graduated from Foothill High School in Santa Ana, California. While a senior at Barnard College of Columbia University, where she earned a BA in English literature, Chambers was discovered by the photographer Jean Pagliuso and the editors of *Mademoiselle*. She became the subject of an article in the September 1975 issue entitled \"The Makings of a Model\", in which she was transformed from student to model. Castelbajac continued her education at Simmons University, where she earned an MBA in 1996.
## Career
### Modelling
The *Mademoiselle* feature helped launch Chambers into a career in high fashion, as she began working with the Ford Modeling Agency and such photographers as Arthur Elgort and Patrick Demarchelier, appearing in magazines like *Harper\'s Bazaar*. Eileen Ford then sent her to Paris, where, in October 1976, she met fashion designer Jean-Charles de Castelbajac. The two were married in 1979. They had two sons together.
During the late 1970s and early 1980s she was among the most popular models in Europe, working for French *Vogue*, *Elle*, *Cosmopolitan*, and represented the line of cosmetics Orlane B23. She also appeared in several runway shows for Chloé, Karl Lagerfield, Chanel, and Issey Miyake.
### Fashion, journalism, and business careers {#fashion_journalism_and_business_careers}
While she continued modeling for a time after her marriage, Castelbajac shifted over time to the business side as well as doing journalism. She began her business career in 1983, working as the accessory director for her husband\'s design company, Jean Charles de Castelbajac, SA., a position she continued until her divorce in 1995. She also began to contribute articles to *InStyle* magazine in 1989, and accepted a position as a founding editor of the women\'s magazine *Mirabella*, covering European trends. *Harper\'s Bazaar* said of her, \"Accomplished, charming and refreshingly candid, Kate brings her personal brand of elan to everything she does.\"
In 1995, she published a book depicting the history of cosmetics, *The Face of the Century*. It chronicled how faces had changed during the 20th century and the economic, social, artistic reasons for those changes. The *International Herald Tribune* described it as a combination of \"lucid text \[and\] well-chosen images.\"
She continues to work in the fashion business. She ran a fashion company for several years. She focused on teaching etiquette to professionals and corporate executives. Currently, Castelbajac is the CEO of Le Void, Inc., a lifestyle company she owns with her son, Louis Marie de Castelbajac.
## Personal life {#personal_life}
Castelbajac was sued in 1995 by energy magnate Bill Koch to evict her from his \$2.5 million condominium at the Four Seasons Hotel in Boston. Koch alleged that he had allowed her to move in so she could attend Simmons College, as he seldom used the apartment. In 1994, however, Koch married Joan Granlund, with whom he had a son. When he tried to end the relationship with Castelbajac, she refused to move out and claimed Koch had broken his promises to her. A jury ruled in Koch\'s favor after a trial noted for its disclosure of torrid letters and faxes between the two.
Castelbajac subsequently had a relationship with actor Ron Silver that lasted until his death in 2009. She lives in Marina del Rey, California

# Mount Arab
**Mount Arab**, sometimes known as **Arab Mountain**, is a 2533 ft mountain located in the town of Piercefield, New York, in the northern part of the Adirondack Mountain Range. At the summit of this mountain is a large fire tower and a ranger station known as the Arab Mountain Fire Observation Station. Because hiking to the summit of this mountain does not take very long and because it offers excellent views of the surrounding mountains and lakes, it is an extremely popular location for tourists and hikers of the Northern Adirondacks.
Mount Arab is also a small hamlet in the southern part of the town, just outside the hamlet of Conifer

# Shagging (baseball)
In baseball, **shagging** is the act of catching fly balls in the outfield outside the context of an actual baseball game. This is most commonly done by pitchers during batting practice before a game, where they assist their hitting teammates by catching or picking up their batted baseballs and throwing them back to the pitching area in the infield. Batboys also help shagging, and it is reportedly considered a great honor among batboys to be asked to do this. This pre-game activity is widely disliked by pitchers, who argue that it does not benefit them at all, since it drains their energy and actually increases the risk of stiffness in the lower back and leg as a result of prolonged standing. In response to these claims, several teams have exempted pitchers from having to shag. In the Nippon Professional Baseball (NPB) league, teams pay groups specifically assembled to shag fly balls in place of pitchers, and the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim recruit local firefighters in Arizona to do the job when the team plays in the Cactus League during spring training.
## Dangers
Although shagging is not considered to be dangerous, several freak injuries have occurred as a result of engaging in it. In 1943, just one season after collecting his 3,000th hit, Paul Waner accidentally gashed his foot while shagging a fly ball in a game against the Pittsburgh Pirates, his former team. This was probably due to Waner being nearsighted and his refusal to wear glasses; thus, he \"played the outfield by ear.\" Nearly four decades later, Jerry Reuss was handed the honor of pitching on Opening Day in 1981, but suffered an injury to his calf while shagging for his teammates. He was replaced by unheralded rookie Fernando Valenzuela, who went on to win his next 8 consecutive decisions.
Other players who have suffered serious injuries due to shagging include Mark Fidrych and Brendan Donnelly. Fidrych suffered a left knee injury after tearing cartilage in 1977 spring training, starting a downward spiral in his career. Donnelly ended up breaking his nose while shagging, resulting in him losing half of his blood and necessitating three operations.
Mariano Rivera, the all-time leader in saves, suffered arguably the most well-known injury from shagging on May 3, 2012. While helping out in pre-game batting practice, Rivera attempted to catch a fly ball from Jayson Nix when he twisted his knee on the warning track of Kauffman Stadium and fell to the ground. An MRI scan revealed he had torn his anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and part of his meniscus. This prematurely ended his season and led to fears that this could potentially be a career-ending injury. Rivera was able to come back and pitch for the 2013 season, his final season in the major leagues before retiring.
Despite the seriousness of Rivera\'s injuries, pitchers from across Major League Baseball (MLB) who engaged in shagging flies during batting practice said they would not drop the activity or modify their training routine. These included James Shields and J. J. Putz, along with 2012 Cy Young Award winners R. A. Dickey and David Price. Furthermore, several MLB managers at the time---namely Dale Sveum, Joe Maddon, Jim Leyland and Terry Collins---confirmed they would not order their pitchers to stop shagging

# Galina Kopernak
**Galina Kopernak** (March 22, 1902 -- July 11, 1985) was a Russian theater actress who appeared on Broadway in the 1920s. She may have been originally from Shanghai. She came to the United States from Moscow.
## Stage career {#stage_career}
Kopernak performed at the Belmont Theater in New York City with Vera Smirnova, in April 1921. She was in the cast of *Montmartre* in February 1922. The production was adapted by Benjamin Glazer from the writing of Pierre Frondale. It was promised to New York a number of times before it was staged at the Belmont. Kopernak was joined by Helen Lowell, Helen Ware, and Mabel Frenyear among the players.
As a newcomer, in the role of Marie-Claire, she is mentioned in a review by Alexander Woollcott. He remarked, \"she has style and talent and a considerable fascination, and when she is advised not to attempt certain emotional explosions, which are beyond her, she will do well.\"
Her next appearance was with Arnold Daly in *The Farewell Supper* at the Palace Theatre in New York City. Kopernak was signed by Louis Kaplan to perform in *The Wasp* at the Morosco Theatre. The play, by Thomas F. Fallon, was adapted from the novel *The Last Warning* by Wadsworth Camp. Kaplan made his debut as a Broadway producer with this presentation.
Kopernak was the leading lady in *The Four-in-Hand* which debuted at the Greenwich Village Theater in September 1923. The comedy was adapted from the French language of Paul Frank. Kopernak was given a disappointing review in her role as \"the Wife\" who divorces her husband because he fails to become jealous of her. The criticism had to do with her reach exceeding her grasp.
She played in *Pierrot The Prodigal* at the 48th Street Theater in March 1925. This was a Carre-Wormser pantomime with Laurette Taylor as the featured actress. Kopernak assumed the part played by Vivienne Osborne in *Aloma of the South Seas* in May 1925. Osborne left the play to replace Lenore Ulric in *The Harem*. Kopernak missed a performance because of a throat ailment but returned to the cast on May 16.
She authored and played the leading role in *The Squall*. It was presented by a Cleveland, Ohio stock company in the summer of 1925.
In September she headed a production of *Love\'s Call*, which was presented at the 39th Street Theater. It was written by Joe Byron Totten and had a supporting cast of Robert Gleckler, Norma Phillips, and Mitchell Harris. The play received negative publicity from critics and was halted before the first show began.
The elaborate Mexican costumes worn by the actors were seized by Georgette and Peggy, of 21 East 49th Street, makers of the clothing. They claimed a balance of \$150 had not been paid by the producers. Kopernak removed her makeup, put on her street clothes, and left the theater. An audience of four hundred were in the venue, with many demanding their money back, and some accepting tickets for other plays.
Kopernak participated in *What The Doctor Ordered* (1927), a farce by Cesar Dunn. The players included Herbert Yost, Hale Hamilton, Eva Condon, and Louise Squires.
George Rosener, an actor in the Shubert Theater revues, wrote *She Got What She Wanted*. Kopernak was in a cast which performed the play at Wallack\'s Theater in May 1929. Some days after the premiere she was injured in a car accident, sustaining a fractured right index finger. She experienced pain and enlargement from swelling, so that her doctor advised her to remove herself from the production. As she portrayed the role of a Russian girl, producer George E. Wintz said she could not be replaced. Kopernak rejoined the production while wearing a cast on June 3.
## Private life {#private_life}
She loaned money to Russian royalist, Nicholas Arliokop, who emigrated to Canada using her funds. Arliokop made a fortune and willed \$250,000 to Kopernak in 1929.
Kopernak is mentioned in a vital record of people with the \"intention to marry\" on March 20, 1930. Her husband to be was the Latvian concert pianist Max Rabinowitsh (1893--1973) born in Liepāja, who had immigrated to the United States in 1922 after the Russian Revolution of 1917. Max Rabinowitsch was 38 years old, and Kopernak 28. She later married and divorced novelist James Hilton

` text:^"KLAA Membership History"`
On March 13, 2017, Milford, South Lyon, South Lyon East, Walled Lake Central, Walled Lake Northern, Walled Lake Western, Waterford Kettering, Waterford Mott, and White Lake Lakeland announced plans to leave the KLAA to form a new conference entitled the Lakes Valley Conference, effective starting the 2017-2018 school year. Pinckney also left the KLAA in 2017 to join the Southeastern Conference. These departures prompted the KLAA to switch from a four division system of North, South, West, and Central divisions to a two division system of Black and Gold divisions, and later, East and West divisions.
The next day, on March 14, 2017, Grand Blanc was voted out of the KLAA effective for the 2018-2019 school year (due to how isolated it is from the other schools in the division) where it proceeded to join the Saginaw Valley League. In its place, Belleville, Dearborn, and Dearborn Fordson joined the KLAA in 2018.
In mid-March, 2025 it was announced that the three Livonia schools, Churchill, Franklin and Stevenson would leave the KLAA for the Lakes Valley Conference (along with the two high schools in Farmington from the Oakland Activities Association) starting in the 2026-27 academic year

He signed a 5-year contract, which worth €100,000 in net in the first season and would gradually increased to €120,000 in the last 3 seasons, plus bonuses. The deal was criticized as financial trick or even creative accounting, as the aggressive price tag of both players only improved 2010--11 financial result (selling profit nearly €3M) and created an amortization cost of €3 million (€600,000 each for 5 seasons) from 2011 to 2016, with both players performance were impaired with costing the club €600,000.
Moreover, following Rickler was banned for 4 years, Bologna would never recovered the residual contract value €2.4M, thus both club gave up the bought back rights in June 2012.

# Madre de Dios (album)
***Madre de Dios*** is Dozer\'s second album, released March 6, 2001 on Man\'s Ruin Records. All songs were recorded in March 2000 at the Rockhouse Studio in Borlänge, Sweden, except \"Octanoid\" which was recorded in August 2000. \"Rings of Saturn\" was recorded in December 2000. All songs were mixed and produced by Dozer with Bengt Backe.
## Background
Explaining the linguistic structure of the album AllMusic stated Dozer is Swedish, writes in English, and titled the album in Spanish. The band was inspired to name it after watching the \"Separate Vocations\" episode of *The Simpsons* in which the character Bart exclaims, \"Madre de Dios! The legends were true!\" after viewing a secret room full of confiscated toys in his school. The distinctive guitar tones of the album not heard on the band\'s previous albums included the use of a newly acquired Gibson SG guitar and a Russian Big Muff fuzz pedal. *Guitar World* described the Big Muff as a \"blown-out, bass-heavy fuzz\" and in regard to the Russian variations in particular \"each sounds very different to the connoisseur, but there\'s a general trend towards fuller bass and a thicker low-mid.\" The Gibson SG itself has a long history of being used in conjunction with fuzz distortion starting in 1962 when the company acquired the design and started the production of \"the first commercial fuzz pedal \"Maestro FZ-1 Fuzz-Tone\"\". They then took it a step forward installing a built-in version of it in the EBSF-1250 variants of the SG model.
Commenting on the recording techniques of the album the magazine *laut.de* said, \"The work is completely self-produced and may therefore appear a little sloppy, but this guarantees a lot of vintage flair\" giving an example of this with the prog sounding synth intro on \"Let The Shit Roll\". Due to the tonal characteristics of the vintage instruments and amplification used the review by *Skrutt* said it produced a sound that was more rock and roll rather than heavy metal or pure stoner rock in classification.
In an interview about the recording of the album lead guitarist/songwriter Tommi Holappa revealed that the original record label Mans Ruin released only a CD version. The band released a vinyl edition on Molten Universe Records which included using different artwork. The final track \"Rings Of Saturn\" was only released on the original vinyl version of the album as a bonus track. The album was reissued by Heavy Psych Sounds Records in 2020 on vinyl LP with the alternate cover artwork that was used for the original Molten Universe Records vinyl release in 2001. They also reissued the CD version with the original CD cover artwork.

## Critical reception {#critical_reception}
In the book *Desperate Measures: Posters Prints and More*, Frank Kozik described the thematic and sonic context of the album with the statement, \"Swirling Galaxies of star dust slowly unfurl to reveal thundering riffs of deepest space.\" AllMusic acknowledged the writing to be \"slightly stronger\" than its predecessor *In the Tail of a Comet* and expressed that, \"although the songs are loud, heavy, and forceful \... they\'re also melodic.\" The reviewer observed that this resulted from the band combining the pentatonic blues based lead guitar of 1970\'s proto-metal pioneers with early 1980\'s punk influenced thrash metal rhythm parts. *Madre de Dios* is evident that \"Dozer holds melody and heaviness in equally high regard.\" In critique of the band\'s second LP *Groove* noted the bands talent and singled out the track \"Early Grace\" as the mixtape track of the summer with all the songs maintaining a consistent \"sweet smelling soundscape\" with \"vaguely murky riffs.\"
*Visions* magazine gave the album a classification as being rooted in the \"stoner\" genre with standout tracks like \"TX-9\" which displayed examples of the band\'s \"doomy grandeur and psychedelic nuances\" and \"Freeloader\" with its Palm Desert Scene inspired vocal lines from lead singer/guitarist Fredrik Nordin. *Rock Hard* drew melodic vocal parallels to traits of both John Garcia and Josh Homme.
Further developing on the band\'s punk infused desert rock sound reviewers of the reissue version showed how they began \"to reveal more textures and experiments\" with the instrumental track \"Earth Yeti\" mixing a \"psychedelic sound with heavy and light passages\" featuring Johan Rockner\'s wah effect drenched bass playing and layers of exotic percussion from the drumming duo consisting of Erik Bäckwall and Daniel Lidén.

## Critical reception {#critical_reception}
Critical reception was generally mixed with a lean towards the positive. AllMusic noted it was more reminiscent of Metallica than the genre-defining Black Sabbath, and \"falls short of exceptional, but it\'s a satisfying effort that has more plusses than minuses.\"
CMJ Music Review was generally positive, indicating it was a strong visceral experience and a promising debut album, although it lacked musical depth

# George Edgcumbe, 1st Earl of Mount Edgcumbe
Admiral **George Edgcumbe, 1st Earl of Mount Edgcumbe**, PC (3 March 1720 -- 4 February 1795) was a British peer, naval officer and politician.
## Early life {#early_life}
Edgcumbe was the second surviving son of Richard Edgcumbe, 1st Baron Edgcumbe and his wife Matilda, the only child of Sir Henry Furnese. He is thought to have been educated at Eton.
## Career
In 1739, Edgcumbe was commissioned a lieutenant in the Royal Navy and in 1742 was promoted to be commander of the bomb vessel `{{HMS|Terrible|1730|6}}`{=mediawiki}. In the course of 1743, he was appointed acting captain of the 20-gun `{{HMS|Kennington|1736|6}}`{=mediawiki}, and was officially confirmed on 19 August 1744. He commanded her in the Mediterranean until 1745, when he was advanced to the 50-gun `{{HMS|Salisbury|1746|6}}`{=mediawiki}. This ship, as part of the Western Fleet under Edward Hawke and Edward Boscawen, initially patrolled the Bay of Biscay during the War of the Austrian Succession. Her ship\'s surgeon was James Lind, who conducted his experiments on scurvy during such a patrol in 1747. The war ended in 1748. About this time Edgcumbe was painted by Sir Joshua Reynolds and the *Salisbury* appears in the background.
In 1751, he went to the Mediterranean as senior officer in `{{HMS|Monmouth|1667|6}}`{=mediawiki}, and the following year in the 50-gun `{{HMS|Deptford|1732|6}}`{=mediawiki}. He was still in her and with his small squadron at Menorca, when the French invaded the island on 19 April 1756. He hastily landed the marines and as many of the seamen as could be spared, and sailed the next day for Gibraltar before the French had taken any measures to block the harbour. At Gibraltar, he was joined by Admiral John Byng, by whom he was ordered to move into the 66-gun `{{HMS|Lancaster|1694|6}}`{=mediawiki}. In the Battle of Minorca, on 20 May the *Lancaster* was one of the ships in the van, under Rear-Admiral Temple West, which did get into action, and being unsupported suffered severely. In 1758, still in the Lancaster, he was in the fleet under Edward Boscawen at the reduction of Louisbourg. On his return to England, with the despatches announcing this success, he was appointed to the 74-gun `{{HMS|Hero|1759|6}}`{=mediawiki}, in which he took part in the blockade of Brest during the long summer of 1759, and in the crowning Battle of Quiberon Bay on 20 November 1759. He continued in the *Hero*, attached to the grand fleet under Hawke or Boscawen, until the death of his brother Richard on 10 May 1761, when he inherited his brother\'s barony, and succeeded him to Mount Edgcumbe House and as Lord Lieutenant of Cornwall. He was promoted to Rear Admiral on 21 October 1762 and Admiral in 1778.
### Political career {#political_career}
In 1746, Edgcumbe was returned as Member of Parliament for Fowey at a by-election, on his father\'s interest. He was considered a government Whig, but rarely attended Parliament as he was at sea. In 1747, he was appointed Clerk of the Council of the Duchy of Lancaster, an office he retained until 1762.
He was appointed Treasurer of the Household in 1765, serving until 1766, and made a Privy Councillor on 26 July. He became Commander-in-Chief, Plymouth the same year, retaining the command until 1771. In 1770, he was promoted vice-admiral and was appointed joint Vice-Treasurer of Ireland. He remained Vice-Treasurer until 1772, when he was appointed Captain of the Gentlemen Pensioners and remained Captain of the Honourable Band of Gentlemen Pensioners until resigning in 1782, when he was appointed Vice-Admiral of Cornwall. In 1784, he was again appointed joint Vice-Treasurer of Ireland, holding office until 1793.
He was created Viscount Mount Edgcumbe and Valletort in 1781 and, in 1784, he was also elected a fellow of the Royal Society. In 1789, he was granted the further title of Earl of Mount Edgcumbe.
## Personal life {#personal_life}
On 16 August 1761, he had married Emma Gilbert, the only daughter of John Gilbert, Archbishop of York, and a first cousin of Robert Sherard, 4th Earl of Harborough. and they had one child:
- Richard Edgcumbe, 2nd Earl of Mount Edgcumbe (1764--1839), who married Lady Sophia Hobart, daughter of John Hobart, 2nd Earl of Buckinghamshire.
Lord Mount Edgcumbe died on 4 February 1795 and his only son, Richard, succeeded to his titles.
### Descendants
Through his only son Richard, he was a grandfather of Lady Emma Edgcumbe (wife of John Cust, 1st Earl Brownlow), Lady Caroline Edgcumbe (wife of Ranald George Macdonald, 20th of Clanranald), William Edgcumbe, Viscount Valletort, Ernest Edgcumbe, 3rd Earl of Mount Edgcumbe, and George Edgcumbe.

## Personal life {#personal_life}
### Legacy
In English folklore, Emma has been identified as the subject of the story of the \"Lady with the Ring\". *Lady Emma\'s Cottage* on the Mount Edgcumbe estate is named after her.
A manuscript journal, kept by Edgcumbe and Captain William Marsh, from 30 April 1742 to 1 June 1744, is in the Bodleian Library. A letter from Edgcumbe to Garrick is printed in the latter\'s \'Private Correspondence\'.
The town of Edgecomb, Maine was named for George Edgcumbe due to his support of the colonists during the American Revolution

# Scott Edgar (basketball)
**Scott William Edgar** (born December 14, 1955) is an American college basketball coach who is currently the men\'s basketball head coach at Eastern Oklahoma State College. He was formerly head coach at Duquesne University, Murray State University and Southeast Missouri State University.
## Early life and education {#early_life_and_education}
Edgar graduated from Penn Hills High School in Penn Hills, Pennsylvania. At the University of Pittsburgh at Johnstown, Edgar played basketball and baseball. He graduated from Pittsburgh--Johnstown in 1978 with a bachelor\'s degree in sociology.
## Coaching career {#coaching_career}
Edgar first coached at New Mexico Military Institute in 1978. Nolan Richardson hired him as one of his first assistants at the University of Tulsa in 1980, his first position in Division I. Edgar followed Richardson to Arkansas in 1985 and continued as Richardson\'s assistant until getting his first head coaching position at Murray State in 1991. He led the Racers to two NCAA tournament appearances in four seasons.
In 1995, Edgar accepted the head coaching position at Duquesne. He was unable to turn the Duquesne Dukes around, however, and was let go after three seasons. From 1999 to 2001, Edgar was director of basketball operations at TCU under Billy Tubbs. Edgar returned to coaching in 2002 at UAB under Mike Anderson, where he helped UAB qualify for the 2003 NIT quarterfinals and 2004 NCAA tournament Sweet 16. In the 2005--06 season, Edgar was on Bruce Pearl\'s staff on a Tennessee team that won the Southeast Conference East Division title.
On April 13, 2006, Edgar was named head coach at Southeast Missouri State. This position brought him back to the Ohio Valley Conference (OVC), where he started with Murray State. Edgar had success in the OVC, with a 65-27 conference record, winning three regular season championships, two tournament championships, and two coach of the year awards, all with Murray State University.
On October 9, 2008, Southeast Missouri State fired athletic director Don Kaverman and suspended Edgar after the NCAA notified the university of possible major violations, three months after both the men\'s and women\'s basketball programs were placed on two years\' probation by the NCAA. On December 31, 2008, new athletic director John Shafer fired Edgar and bought out the final two years of Edgar\'s contract. The NCAA investigation concluded in August 2009 and found that impermissible tuition payments and violations of rules about summer conditioning activities and observing pickup games happened under Edgar\'s watch; Edgar\'s appeal was rejected in June 2010.
He was named men\'s basketball head coach at Eastern Oklahoma State College, a junior college, in the spring of 2010.
