7646208 | "Henrietta Temple"
Henrietta Temple Henrietta Temple is the ninth novel written by Benjamin Disraeli, who would later become a Prime Minister of Britain. Disraeli wrote the first volume of ""Henrietta Temple"" in 1833 at the start of his affair with Henrietta Sykes, on whom the novel’s eponymous heroine is based, and completed it three years later, shortly after the affair had ended. The two volumes reflect these two stages of the relationship, the first with, ""the rustle of real petticoats [being] more audible than in any other part of Disraeli's work,"" the latter where, ""passion has vanished"". The novel was written at |
7646209 | "Henrietta Temple"
a time when Disraeli was heavily in debt (ca £1m in today’s terms) and its limited success helped ease Disraeli’s financial situation. Ferdinand Armine is the scion of an aristocratic Catholic family, which can trace its roots back to the time of William the Conqueror. Ferdinand had an idyllic but isolated childhood, brought up by his loving parents and his tutor Glastonbury. The family estate, Armine, is, however, dilapidated and debt-ridden due to the lifestyle of Ferdinand’s grandfather. Ferdinand becomes a favourite of his wealthy maternal grandfather, Lord Grandison, who, despite hints, fails to financially assist his daughter and son-in-law. |
7646210 | "Henrietta Temple"
Glastonbury therefore arranges for a duke in London, whose family he previously served, to buy an army commission in Malta for Ferdinand. Whilst Ferdinand is in Malta, Lord Grandison’s heir dies and everyone assumes Ferdinand will in due course inherit Grandison’s estate. Ferdinand therefore builds up large debts living an extravagant lifestyle but, when Grandison dies, his estate is bequeathed to his granddaughter, Katherine. On returning to England, Ferdinand realises the only way to deal with his debt is to marry Katherine, his cousin. Ferdinand successfully woos Katherine who accepts his proposal of marriage. Ruminating on the sadness of his |
7646211 | "Henrietta Temple"
predicament, he meets Henrietta Temple and her father, the tenant of the neighbouring estate. Ferdinand and Henrietta instantly fall in love. In the coming days and weeks, with both their families away, the couple spend more time together and enter into a secret engagement. Ferdinand concludes that he should break his engagement with Katherine and persuades Henrietta to keep their engagement secret until he has squared things with his own father. Ferdinand therefore sets off to Bath to explain what has happened to his family. He and Henrietta exchange secret letters but Ferdinand’s become progressively more infrequent and briefer. Henrietta |
7646212 | "Henrietta Temple"
hears of Ferdinand’s engagement to Katherine through a family friend, Lady Bellair. Distraught, she reveals her love for Ferdinand to her father and they resolve to go to Italy. Shortly afterwards Ferdinand, having failed to tell his family about Henrietta, returns and, learning that Henrietta has left the country and has knowledge of his engagement to Katherine, falls gravely ill. His parents, Glastonbury and Katherine help nurse him back to health, whereupon Ferdinand confirms to Katherine what Glastonbury had previously told her, namely that he is in love with someone else. Ferdinand and Katherine resolve to secretly break their engagement |
7646213 | "Henrietta Temple"
but to remain friends. Meanwhile in Italy, Henrietta is also ill and reclusive but is gradually brought round by Lord Montfort, the grandson of the (now deceased) duke who arranged the army commission for Ferdinand. Montfort proposes and, mainly to make her father happy, Henrietta accepts. Montfort decides that they should return to London for their wedding. Coincidentally Mr Temple is the beneficiary of an unexpected inheritance and decides to settle it on Henrietta thus making her the richest heiress in the country. In London Ferdinand and Henrietta meet through mutual friends and chance encounters and learn how unhappy the |
7646214 | "Henrietta Temple"
other is. Katherine also realises Henrietta is Ferdinand’s first love and challenges both Henrietta and Lord Montfort on the subject. Henrietta and Ferdinand both separately disclose their feelings to their fathers, who react negatively. News of the termination of Ferdinand's engagement to Katherine reaches one of his creditors, who arranges for Ferdinand to be arrested and taken to a “spunging hole”, a sort of pre-debtor prison. Various friends visit Ferdinand but he refuses help. Eventually Montfort turns up and presents him with a note written by Henrietta which states that Montfort and Katherine are to wed, thus freeing Ferdinand to |
7646215 | "Henrietta Temple"
marry Henrietta. Ferdinand is delighted and the following day allows a friend to pay off his debt. With all the main characters happily reconciled, the novel ends describing how Montfort and Ferdinand went on to become Whig MPs and how Ferdinand and Henrietta happily raised their four children at the former’s family home, now restored to its former splendour. According to its author, the main theme of the novel is love at first sight, as described when Ferdinand first sets eyes on Henrietta. There is no love but love at first sight. This is the transcendent and surpassing offspring of |
7646216 | "Henrietta Temple"
sheer and unpolluted sympathy. All other is the illegitimate result of observation, of reflection, of compromise, of comparison, of expediency. The passions that endure flash like the lightning: they scorch the soul, but it is warmed for ever. Disraeli also writes that, ""the magic of first love is our ignorance that it can ever end,” but the novel contains additional themes common to his other work such as a character (Glastonbury) mirroring “his own wiser alter ego”, a key scene being set in a ruined abbey and artificially life-like art. The novel's hero escapes debt by a combination of marrying |
7646217 | "Abbots of Shrewsbury"
It does, however, say of Prestbury that ""on account divers infirmities he is so impotent that without geat bodily grievance he cannot labour for his deliverance."" Even allowing for convenient exaggeration, it seems that Prestbury was now known to be infirm. He was probably at least 70 years old by this time. Any discredit attaching to this second set of allegations seems to have dissipated quickly, as it seems Shrewsbury Abbey was soon honoured by a royal visit, placed some time shortly after the death and burial of Glyndŵr by Adam of Usk: The royal journey, apparently after the Agincourt |
7646218 | "Henrietta Temple"
Berlin. More recent reviews have been mixed. In 1968, Richard Levine wrote, “In the final analysis, however, [Henrietta Temple] is neither typical nor meaningful in Disraeli’s canon; for it carries within it few ideas or authorial observations, and Disraeli’s fundamental interests for us are as a novelist of ideas and as a writer of personal involvement and observation.” Eleven years later Daniel Schwarz rebutted Levine's opinions on the grounds that the novel has “thematic interest and aesthetic appeal apart from Disraeli’s ideas” and that it is “hardly impersonal.” Henrietta Temple Henrietta Temple is the ninth novel written by Benjamin Disraeli, |
7646219 | "Abbots of Shrewsbury"
was a known Lollard sympathiser, these accusations must have seemed far-fetched and nothing seems to have come of them. Little is known of Prestbury's stewardship of the abbey. He did acquire some property for it: in 1405, for example, he paid 20 marks for a licence to take into mortmain some urban properties in Shrewsbury with an annual value of 6 marks. In 1423 he disputed with the town of Shrewsbury over the proceeds of the annual fair. Under Prestbury the abbey several times failed to make its annual contribution to the Benedictine chapter. In 1426, just before Prestbury died, |
7646220 | "Abbots of Shrewsbury"
serious dissensions among the monks forced the chapter to intervene. The abbot of Burton Abbey was sent in and discovered that Prestbury was trying to secure the succession for William Pule, who was opposed by the other monks. The prior of Worcester Cathedral carried out a visitation during July but Prestbury around that time. The licence to elect a successor was issued on 23 July 1426. The royal assent was given to the election of John Hampton as abbot on 17 August 1426. Evidently any conspiracy by Prestbury to pre-empt the election had failed: Hampton was the former prior of |
7646221 | "Abbots of Shrewsbury"
the abbey. He was confirmed by the bishop in Lilleshall parish church on 27 August. The mandate to restore temporalities was issued on 1 September, and was sent to the escheator of Cambridgeshire and the Chancellor of the County Palatine of Lancaster, in both of which the abbey had estates, as well Shropshire. Relatively little is known of Hampton or his abbacy. Like other notables, he was required to support the country's military efforts. In 1430 he was one of those commissioned to raise ""a notable sum of money"" in Shropshire for the war in France. The following year he |
7646222 | "Abbots of Shrewsbury"
was given oversight of the use of local murage to fortify Shrewsbury against potential Welsh insugency. Only in 1441, long after his death, did it transpire that he had colluded in illegal land deals relating to the abbey's manor of Hordley in north Shropshire. Hampton died in 1433, presumably in the summer, as his successor was probably elected during August. Ludlow's election as abbot received the royal assent on 21 August 1433. The mandate to restore the temporalities, issued on 5 September, and still more precise in its provisions, was addressed to the escheators for Shropshire, Staffordshire and Cambridgeshire, as |
7646223 | "Abbots of Shrewsbury"
well as the Chancellor at Lancaster. Like Prestbury, he was one of the Benedictine graduates of Oxford: the notification of assent and the mandate call him a professor of theology (""sacre pagine""). Like his predecessor, he was soon given supervision of spending on Shrewsbury's fortifications: a fresh commission for this was issued on 16 November 1434. Another commission, issued to William Burley and other Shropshire notables only two days later, instituted an investigation into the expenditure, as it was alleged the bailiffs of the town had been converting it to their own uses: the investigators were ordered to question the |
7646224 | "Abbots of Shrewsbury"
abbot and to audit the accounts. Ludlow oversaw two important property transfers and initiated another, all for pious purposes, and all clearly intended to show affection and support for the Lancastrian dynasty. In 1442 he agreed to grant the advowson of the parish church at Newport and of tithes in two villages of Edgmond to Thomas Draper, who promised in turn to establish a college of priests and a chantry in the abbey. This was for the souls of the king, Henry VI, of his uncle, Humphrey, Duke of Gloucester, and his father, Henry V. The ""Seinte Marie College of |
7646225 | "Abbots of Shrewsbury"
Newport"" was to consist of a warden and four other priests, of whom two would serve in the chantry. There was to be a guild of men and women in the chapel, whose souls were included in the prayers. On 1 October 1448 he and the convent granted important Cambridgeshire properties, in Isleham and Tadlow, to the College of St Mary and St Nicholas, Cambridge, a royal foundation intended to reflect Henry VI's piety and respect for scholarship. The king confirmed the grant in 1451. In 1449 Ludlow decided to press for appropriation of Great Ness church to fund Henry |
7646226 | "Abbots of Shrewsbury"
V's chantry in the chapel of St Winifred. On 31 October William Booth, then Bishop of Coventry and Lichfield, approved in writing the appropriation for the purpose of installing a single monk of the abbey as chantry priest, to say Mass daily for the souls of Henry V, Henry VI and their successors. The appropriation was also approved in the following year by other interested parties: John Verney, the Dean of Lichfield, Richard the prior of Coventry and Thomas Lye, the Archdeacon of Salop. However, papal approval remained to be won, and nothing was heard from that quarter before Ludlow's |
7646227 | "Abbots of Shrewsbury"
death. Ludlow died in 1459, probably late in the year. By 15 December the king was exercising the abbey's rights of patronage to its churches because the temporalities had escheated to the Crown on the death of Ludlow. The next abbot was elected by January 1460. There is a fairly full contemporary account of Mynd's election. The monks involved are all named. The prior, charged with convening the house in the absence of an abbot, was Robert Ydeshale – presumably from Shifnal, then generally called Idshall. The monks met as a chapter on 19 December 1459 and decided on 8 |

been popularization of the diversity of the world of plants, both native and foreign, towards visitors, by giving the opportunity to face ""in the flesh"" the multiplicity of plants in an urban environment. ""Botanik"" has been covering -since its re-creation in 1951- various fields of biology, plant morphology, plant pathology, dendrology. In the 1970s, the garden had gathered 300 species of plants, and published annually a ""Seed Catalog"", exchanging grains with other botanic gardens in Poland and abroad. In 1977, decision was made to create a larger Botanic Garden in Bydgoszcz in the north-eastern part of the ""Forest Park of |
7646229 | "Botanic Garden of Casimir the Great University, Bydgoszcz"
Culture and Leisure"" (), downgrading the old ""Botanik"" to an urban public park.. In 1995, with the help of Voivodeship Nature Conservator, Engineer Marek Wilcz, the park was granted the status of ""Comprehensive Natural Monument"", as an arboretum. In 1999, the botanic garden, comprising about 220 species of trees and shrubs, was handed over to the UKW and became a didactic and scientific laboratory of the Department of Botany of the Institute of Biology and Environmental Protection of the Faculty of Natural Sciences. Since then, a gradual revitalization of the garden has begun: The manager of the Arboretum since 1999 |

and writ to the tenants were issued on 4 February at Northampton. Thomas Mynde seems to have been another Shropshire abbot, possibly from landed gentry resident at Myndtown, near the Long Mynd. The Wars of the Roses soon entered one of their most active phases and it was at Northampton that Henry VI fell into Yorkist hands on 10 July 1460. Embarrassingly, in 1463 Mynde received the long-awaited approval from Pope Pius II for Henry V's chantry. The wording, which referred to Henry VI as the current monarch, makes clear that it had been delayed for some years even after |
7646231 | "Botanic Garden of Casimir the Great University, Bydgoszcz"
origins, are gathered there. The arboretum is divided into sections: plant biology, ecology, systematics, useful plants, medicinal plants, ornamental plants, arboretum and orchard. Within the ecology area have been re-created on a 50 m surface the flora of mountains, inland dunes, steppes, salt flats, peatlands and ponds. Among the built structures, one can notice stone arches, pergolas, and a small courtyard showing on its centre a sundial, with four stone sculptures ( tall) standing in corners, portraying the seasons. This allegoric ensemble, called ""The four parts of the year"", was in the initial 1930's botanic garden lay out, offered by |
7646232 | "Botanic Garden of Casimir the Great University, Bydgoszcz"
Polish sculptor Bronisław Kłobucki (1896-1939). They have been lost, together with the sundial, when the new botanic garden at Myślęcinek opened in 1979. Thanks to sponsoring efforts (""Ewa Taterczynska Foundation"" and Bydgoszcz Pomeranian Gas Company), the decorative courtyard has been restored to its original shape and location. Stone figures ""Autumn"" () and ""Winter"" () have been realized by Stanisław Radwański from Gdańsk and set back in the arboretum in mid-May 2008 and on March 22, 2010. Last two sculptures, also by Stanisław Radwański, have been placed back to the garden on September 18, 2014 (""Spring"" - ), and on October |
7646233 | "Botanic Garden of Casimir the Great University, Bydgoszcz"
17, 2015, (""Summer"" - ).. In addition, the lost sundial has been replicated by Richard Lewandowski. On the southern side of the Botanic Garden stands, along the fence, a 1930 relief displaying a map of Bydgoszcz. Made of artificial stone by Bronisław Kłobucki, author of the allegory figures of the seasons, the plan exposes rivers, valleys, hills, waters, railways, selected roads and buildings. The relief was accompanied by water sprayers (now non-existent) and two stone benches with mascarons. All around on the premises, a permanent outdoor exhibition of stone sculptures called ""Stone Stream"" (). These artworks have been offered by |

Richard Lye was probably elected soon afterwards, as he was confirmed as abbot by the bishop on 16 March 1498. However, there was then some unexplained problem with the abbey's property. Not until 20 January 1499 was the mandate issued to restore the temporalities, along with the writ ""de intendendo"", demanding recognition of Lye as landlord. The king |

Another Richard Lye and his wife, Beatrice, were among the founding members of the Guild of St Winifred in 1487: his name does not appear on the Burgess Roll and he was probably a citizen of Abbey Foregate, then a separate borough. The monk Richard Lye is known before his election as one of those who signed the Abbey's grant of two pastures to the Guild. He is recorded at Oxford as a student |

patients improved significantly. This research was published in her Master’s thesis and a scientific paper. The large number of pregnant women with pelvic girdle pain, was a challenge at the obstetric department. Little was known about the diagnosis and treatment of this painful condition in pregnant and post-partum women. Together with another physiotherapists Mona Godskesen, she undertook the challenge of attempting to classify the different groups of Pelvic Girdle pain into subgroups which required different treatment. The study (still the largest in the world) included 2269 pregnant women. All of them were examined in their 20. week of pregnancy. The |

They were given a corner house near the abbey to live in, a shop on the bridge for Copland's business, a second house nearby in Coleham, and pasture land. All this was allegedly granted by the abbot and convent together. Richard Lye died in London while on parliamentary business on 4 March 1512 and was buried at St Bartholomew-the-Less in Smithfield. In part, his epitaph read: Two monks, Prior William Castle and Laurence Greenleaf, submitted a petition for a licence to elect a new abbot on 11 March and it was issued at |

research resulted in five scientific papers and three summaries. For this scientific work she was awarded two awards, and a seat in the European Guideline Group. In 2000 Dr. Hanne Albert was employed as a researcher and a Ph.D. student at The Back Centre in Ringe. The aim of her Ph.D. was, to evaluate the possibility of treating to treat patients with severe lumbar disc herniation with exercises. These were patients who would normally be considered surgical candidates. In 2000, this had not previously been shown. The study showed, that there was highly significant improvement in patients of this kind |

corrodies were a major and probably increasing burden on monastic finances. In November 1514 Baker was summoned, as abbot, to attend the 1515 Parliament. Episcopal visitations from the time of Baker present an unhappy picture of a divided and embittered community, struggling with unpaid debts, poor accounting, buildings in decay and land leased without consulting the chapter: The monks had never been consulted about Lye's grants to his family, which had been made nominally on behalf of abbot with the convent. The infirmary was in ruins and Thomas Butler, the subprior, had taken away its glass to improve the comfort |

Albert was the first to describe this connection between a previous herniation and new Modic changes in the adjacent vertebra. For this research she was awarded a price and these results were published as a scientific paper. This was unknown news and led her together with radiologist, Joan Solgård Sørensen, to develop three theories of the pathogenesis behind Modic changes; a bacterial cause, a mechanical cause and a rheumatological cause. This theory was published in 2007. The new idea that was presented was, that through a lesion in the herniated disc the bacteria Propioni Acnes could invade the disc, and |
7646244 | "Hanne Albert"
that Modic changes/bone edema was the edema surrounding the infected disc. Antibiotic treatment was a relevant treatment of an infection. The first study of antibiotic treatment of Modic changes ever, was published in 2008. Here 32 patients in a pilot study was treated with long term antibiotic and 60% of these became much better or cured for their back pain. In 2013, the first randomized clinically controlled trial (RCT) was published. This study which has received the highest grade in methodology, showed in 162 patients a highly significant and clinically relevant improvement in the patients that received the antibiotic treatment |
7646245 | "Hanne Albert"
and no change in the patients that received the placebo tablets. This naturally stirred massive international interest. Earlier it was believed, that back pain was either caused by mechanical problems in the tissue or the pain was psychosomatic. Now there was a third cause, that back pain could be caused by bacterial infection this led to another price. Modic changes/bone edema is a very painful disease, and Hanne Albert has led or she has been a part of several teams which have explored this painful condition. Dr. Hanne Albert has been the head author or co-author of 55 scientific papers |

In 1922 her family left Istanbul and moved first to Bulgaria, then soon after to Thessaloniki and finally to Athens, where they settled permanently in 1925. In 1928, she enrolled in the Athens School of Fine Arts where she studied drawing under the famous Greek painter Konstantinos Parthenis.

Although the couple was married for almost 60 years they were childless by their own choice. In 1933 Zongolopoulou participated in a group exhibition along with other fellow students from the ASFA including Yiannis Moralis and Lazaros Lameras. Three years after, she participated at the sixth exhibition of the art group ""Ομάδα Τέχνη"" (Group ""Art""), which was founded for the promotion of modernism in Greek art.

During her stay in Paris she examined El Greco’s paintings and she was deeply influenced by Pablo Picasso’s work, which led her toward creative abstractivism. In 1939 she took part in the International Exhibition of New York, where she was honoured for her participation as a member of the Greek pavilion. In 1949 she moved to France with her husband and she studied at André Lhote’s School in Paris. Her first individual exhibition was held at “Romvos” Gallery in Athens, in 1951.

However, Louro de Sousa was, by that time, in a very weak position in relation to political power in Lisbon. A few months earlier, the Commander-in-Chief of Guinea had told the Undersecretary of State for the Overseas Administration, Silva Cunha, the opinion that the war in Guinea was lost, which had made a very bad impression on some members of the Government. Therefore, Operation Trident also served as a demonstration of military initiative on the |

part of Louro de Sousa. Despite the planning and effort developed, the truth is that Portuguese forces had not been able to completely eradicate the guerrillas in Como, although they had significantly limited their ability to operate in the area. Despite the enormous difficulties they faced in confronting Portuguese forces, the guerrillas were able to resist, not abandoning the island and the same can be said of the population. Shortly after the end of the operation, the island was visited by a delegation of the party leadership headed by Luís Cabral, who traveled the island to know how the battle |

had run and what needs the inhabitants and the guerrillas had. The result of the operation would be used extensively by the PAIGC in its internal and external propaganda. This can see this in an interview that Amílcar Cabral gives in 1969 to Tricontinental magazine in Conakry, where he comments on the battle as a great victory for his movement. Cabral says that the Portuguese troops numbered around 3,000 men and that they had lost 900 soldiers and a large quantity of material, whilst being forced to withdraw and that As was still a liberated area dominated by the PAIGC. |

In fact, the Portuguese forces suffered 9 killed and 47 wounded and 193 soldiers were evacuated to the hospital of Bissau due to disease reasons. However, the main consequence of this operation was the strategic change that was carried out in the political and military leadership of the territory, with the dismissal of Louro de Sousa and Vasco Rodrigues, Commander-in-Chief and Governor, respectively, single person, as had already happened in the time of Peixoto Correia. Arnaldo Schultz was the military man chosen for these functions, having arrived in Bissau on 20 May 1964, about two months after the end of |

François de Prendcourt François de Prendcourt (born Gutenberg von Weigolshausen; 1640s – 1725) was a German composer, organist, harpsichordist, and soldier. Little is known of Prendcourt’s early life and education. He was born in Würzburg and spoke German, French, Spanish, Latin, and English. From 1686 to 1688 he was Master of the Children at the Catholic chapel in Whitehall, England under James II, where he taught Latin, music, and singing. He was dismissed for misconduct, probably for having an affair with the daughter of Richard Bishop, whom he later married. The couple went to Ireland, and in 1689 Prendcourt was |

Upon his release, he was probably employed at the Catholic chapel of the Duke of Tallard in London, who at the time was the French ambassador. However, Tallard was expelled from London in 1702, and Prendcourt began teaching harpsichord to support himself. He was given room and board in several households, but gained a bad reputation by selling the furnishings of his rooms. Thomas Coke, Vice-Chamberlain to |

Drew returns to Audrey's apartment to retrieve his possessions, including a second place trophy he won from fantasy football. People soon begin shooting into the apartment and Drew tells Audrey that, if anything were to happen to him, she must travel to Vienna and turn over the trophy to his contact. Drew is then murdered by |

After fleeing their apartment, Morgan convinces Audrey that they should go to Vienna especially since their passports were still in their car from a previous roadtrip. At the LAX airport, Audrey and Morgan purchase a suitcase in effort to look less suspicious. In addition, they purchase several trophies to fill the suitcase. Once in Vienna, they go to the café Drew told them to go to. Sebastian appears and |

demands the trophy at gun-point and Audrey reluctantly hands it over before the entire café is attacked. Audrey and Morgan flee the scene and are chased by men on motorcycles but manage to escape. Audrey reveals that she still has Drew's trophy since she switched it with one of several decoys they purchased at the airport. Morgan calls her parents who tell her to go to Prague where she and Audrey can stay with Roger, a family friend. After some difficulty, they manage to steal a pair of passports. On the train to Prague, they also realize that the trophy |

contains a USB flash drive in its base. Audrey and Morgan make it to the apartment but quickly realize that ""Roger"" is actually a spy who has killed the real Roger and drugged the two ladies. To protect the flash drive, Audrey tries to get Morgan to swallow it. When that fails, Audrey tells their captors that she flushed it down the toilet. The ladies wake up in an abandoned gymnastics training facility, hanging and bound, about to be tortured by Nadedja, a Russian gymnast/model/assassin, trained by an older couple who were introduced to Audrey as Drew's parents. To try |
7646283 | "The Spy Who Dumped Me"
to save them Morgan tells Nadedja stories about how close she and Audrey are, hoping to have her relate only to realize that Nadedja's best friend is a balance beam that she practiced her gymnastics on. About to die, Audrey and Morgan are finally rescued by Sebastian, who defied his partner's orders in order to try and save them. He brings them to meet his boss in Paris where they once again tell both the C.I.A. and MI6 that the drive was flushed. The women are given tickets back to America and Sebastian is put on leave. Driving back to |

the airport, Sebastian explains that Drew's ""parents"" are actually notorious criminals; Drew was discreetly negotiating with them to sell the flash drive, and Audrey came along as part of his cover. Now certain that she can trust him, Audrey confesses to Sebastian and Morgan that she didn't flush the flash drive but instead hid it in her vagina. Sebastian struggles to decrypt the file but fails. Morgan calls Edward Snowden- who had a crush on her in a summer camp- and he helps them hack the drive. Once the device is decrypted, Sebastian realizes that it is actually full of |
7646285 | "The Spy Who Dumped Me"
information which can be used for blackmail. The trio travel to a hostel in Amsterdam where they are attacked by Sebastian's C.I.A. partner Duffer, who is actually trying to obtain and then sell the drive. They are rescued by their roommate, who thinks they are being robbed and body slams Duffer to his death. Now on a dock, Audrey hears Duffer’s phone and unlocks by using his finger. Using Duffer's phone, they are able to confirm they have the device and pretend to go forward with a deal to sell it. The deal is to take place at a private |
7646286 | "The Spy Who Dumped Me"
party in Berlin so Audrey and Sebastian disguise themselves as the Canadian ambassador and his wife while Morgan pretends to be a member of Cirque du Soleil. To continue unlocking Duffer’s phone, Audrey cuts off Duffer’s finger. At the event, Sebastian is attacked and Morgan is forced to contend with Nadedja on an acrobat swing, eventually killing her by throwing her onto the nearby set. Unwilling to miss her chance to make the deal and stop the murderer, Audrey goes to meet her mysterious contact and finds Drew, still alive. Drew tells Audrey he fought to be able to see |

her but acts suspicious and goes through her purse in order to find the flash drive. Sebastian arrives, being held hostage by Drew's ""parents"". After a standoff, Drew's ""parents"" are shot leaving Sebastian and Drew each accusing the other of trying to hurt Audrey. Drew then shoots Sebastian and Audrey pretends to be grateful for his protection before grabbing Drew's gun. After Drew tries to attack Audrey, he is stopped by Morgan throwing a cannonball at him. Audrey implies that she is going to kill Drew and even pulls the trigger of the gun, but reveals that she kept it |

Even though he and his wife would prefer to carry on working in agriculture, Lang accepts the offer as a ""commitment to the party and the homeland"" which Himmler approves. Lang points out to his wife that the SS Reich Leader had chosen him particularly because of these organisational skills and his experience as a prisoner. After all, he himself had been imprisoned for five years. In the Dachau concentration camp Franz Lang is finally trained to |

be the future camp commander. He fulfils his duties without protest and, as years go by, he is promoted to the rank of SS-Sturmbannführer. During World War II Lang is once again summoned to Himmler who informs him, under strict confidentiality, about Hitler´s plan to annihilate the Jews in the holocaust and about the camps, which are planned in Poland. As a result, Lang takes over the Auschwitz extermination camp in Poland, which is now occupied by the Germans. Adolf Eichmann informs him about the ""capacities"" of the camp. Until then, according to the party leadership the killings were too |

Because he implements this method successfully in the camp, he is promoted to the rank of SS-Obersturmbannführer after Himmler has visited him there. During a meal with the head of the Chelmno concentration camp Lang´s wife Else finds out what is going on in the camp and when she tackles him he defends himself by saying it is his duty.

Of Honyestewa's innovation, Andrew Higgins, registrar of the Arizona State Museum, wrote: ""[Honyestewa] create[d] a truly unique piece of artwork.
