"Harpophora maydis"
],
[
"Introduction",
"'''''Harpophora maydis''''', also known by '''late wilt''', the vascular maize disease it causes, is a species of fungus in the family Magnaporthaceae."
],
[
"Taxonomy",
"Discovered in Egypt in 1960, the species was first described as ''Cephalosporium maydis'' (Samra, Sabet and Hingoran.",
"1962).",
"''Acremonium maydis'', likely a result of misidentification, is often mischaracterised as the same species and as a result the name functions as a synonym for ''H.",
"maydis''.",
"One reason for this is likely the similarities between ''H.",
"maydis'' and other ''Cephalosporium'' species such as ''C.",
"acremonium''In 2000, Walter Gams created the genus ''Harpophora'' for a number of species in ''Cephalosporium'' that are morphologically phialophora-like, based upon ''Harpophora radiciola''.",
"As a result, many species of ''Cephalosporium'', including ''C.",
"maydis'' were moved there."
],
[
"Distribution",
"States where ''Harpophora maydis'' is present''H.",
"maydis'' was initially discovered in Egypt in 1960 and has since been reported in approximately 10 other states.The species is widespread on the Indian subcontinent, present in India, Pakistan, and Nepal.",
"Reported first in India, originally in Andhra Pradesh and then later in Rajasthan and Punjab.",
"Within Pakistan, it has been present in the Punjab province since at least 1989.In Europe, the fungus is present in both Spain and Portugal as well as Hungary and Romania.Its presence has been especially problematic in Israel since the early 2010s, where especially aggressive strains have been found."

[
"Introduction",
"The '''\"Óscar Trelles Montes\" National Institute of Neurological Sciences''' (, '''INCN'''), also known by its former names '''Saint Turibius of Mogrovejo Hospital''' () and '''Hospital for Incurables''' (), is a public specialised hospital centre administered by the Ministry of Health of Peru.",
"It is dedicated to specialised care in neurology, neurosciences and neurosurgery; and is also dedicated to research and teaching.",
"Founded in the viceregal era with a Royal Decree of August 26, 1700, as the '''Refuge for Incurables''' () on Maravillas Street.",
"It is located in the neighbourhood of Barrios Altos, part of Lima District.The '''Museum of Neuropathologies''' (), also known simply as the '''Museum of the Brain''' (), is housed inside the hospital."
],
[
"History",
"The hospital was established under the Viceroyalty of Peru as the ''Refuge for Incurables'' by Friar José de Figueroa, well known for his treatment of the ill, in what was then known as Maravillas Street.",
"It was officialised with the Royal Decree of August 26, 1700.The date was chosen as the hospital's anniversary in 1993.Its name came due to the public that was attended there: beggars, cripples, orphans and abandoned people.",
"This was the nature of the hospitals at the time, as some were divided by the caste system (San Andrés for the Spanish, Santa Ana for the Indians and San Bartolomé for freed slaves); others were divided by occupation, such as the Espíritu Santo in Montserrat, founded in 1573 and dedicated to those involved in the Peruvian Navy; and others were divided by the public they attended.The terrain where the so-called \"cloister hospital\" was built had originally belonged to the Novitiate of the College of San Antonio, belonging to the Company of Jesus.",
"It was administered by the Bethlehemite Brothers during its early years.",
"The earthquake of 1746 partially destroyed the hospital, which was reconstructed to accommodate its increasing number of patients.",
"However, it was only after the Viceroy Count of Superunda's efforts that the hospital was properly rebuilt under his personal supervision.",
"In 1804, Viceroy Avilés created a women's pavilion.In 1862, a supreme decree transferred ownership of the establishment to the Charity of Lima, whose directory renamed it to the ''Saint Turibius of Mogrovejo Hospital'' on November 29, 1937.After 113 years, the ownership of the hospital was again transferred, this time to the Ministry of Health, who renamed the hospital to its current name on April 30, 1981."

[
"Museum",
"The '''Museum of Neuropathologies''' (), also known simply as the '''Museum of the Brain''' (), is the museum housed inside the hospital.",
"It houses a large collection of organs and is focused mostly on the human brain.",

],
[
"Background",
"Its predecessor ''The Korea Daily News'' had actually been a forerunner in the Korean independence movement.",
"However, its reporting drew the ire of Japan, which was quickly absorbing Korea around that time.",
"After the newspaper's owner Ernest Bethell died, the Japanese and British governments pressured Bethell's successor, Arthur Marnham, to fold and leave the country.",
"He did so on May 21, 1910, selling the newspaper to former employee Lee Jang-hoon () for 40,000 won (or 700 British pounds) worth of gold.",

"It held a literature contest in August 1919.After the 1919 March 1st Movement nationwide protests (which the ''Maeil Sinbo'' described only as a small disturbance at the time), the Japanese colonial government began allowing more freedom in the press, and granted permission for several Korean-owned newspapers to be founded.",

"The paper advocated a view that assimilation and the learning of the Japanese language should be done gradually, over the course of several generations.The paper criticized elements of Korean culture and society for the purpose of both assimilation and reform.",
"Some of these criticisms were the same criticisms repeated by Korean scholars for decades, for example, the condemnation of women being married too early.The paper encouraged women's education, especially to prepare them for what it saw as their primary role in society: educating children at home.",
"Mark E. Caprio writes that Korean women were still treated condescendingly, however, compared to Japanese women.",
"When covering a visit of Korean women to Tokyo, the newspaper wrote that the experience was particularly valuable for the women on the trip.",

"1770s Pacific Northwest smallpox epidemic"
],
[
"Introduction",
"The first known smallpox epidemic to strike the native peoples of the coastal and interior northwest arrived in the early 1770s, devastating large swathes of the population and causing significant demographic collapse – both from the disease itself and corresponding malnutrition from the deaths of hunters within tribes.",
"Poorly attested due to a lack of consistent European presence during the period, it most likely originated from Bruno de Heceta and Bodega y Quadra's 1775 expedition to the Northwest Coast, spreading as far inland as the Bitterroot Salish territories in western Montana and as far north as the Tlingit at Sitka.",
"Widespread pockmarks and scars among older native populations were recorded by European explorers for several decades aftewards, including Lewis and Clark and George Vancouver.",
"Several additional smallpox epidemics would occur in the region over the following decades."
],
[
"Background",
"corneal scarSmallpox is a highly infectious disease spread primarily through droplet infection, as well as direct contact with infected individuals or corpses.",
"Typically, the disease incubates asymptotically for a period of two weeks before becoming infectious for another two-week period.",
"The more deadly and historically prominent variant, ''Variola major'', kills about 30% of non-immune populations.",
"Those who survive are left with pockmarks across their body and a lifelong immunity to the disease.Originating in the Eastern Hemisphere, Smallpox was first introduced to the Americas shortly after the beginning of the Columbian Exchange.",
"Brought to Santo Domingo in 1519, it spread to the mainland during the Spanish conquest of the Aztec Empire, causing widespread devastation across Mesoamerica.===Possible antecedents===The 1520s smallpox epidemic spread from Mesoamerica into adjacent maize-growing regions in North America.",
"A population decline in the Columbia Basin, evidenced archaeologically by a sharp regional decline in artifacts and structures in the early 1500s, has been tentatively linked to a spread of this outbreak, but greatly predates any written record in the region.",
"Other causes for the population decline than disease are possible.Excepting possible Spanish or East Asian shipwrecks in earlier periods, possible origins of disease spread on the Pacific Coast began in the late 1500s with the landing of Francis Drake at California.",
"European contact in the Northwest only began in the late 1700s with Spanish, British, and Russian exploration in the region.",
"No evidence of pandemics during this period are attested in the Northwest."
],
[
"Historical accounts",
"A severe paucity of sources limits research into the spread and effects of the pandemic.",
"No European explorers directly witnessed the pandemic, only writing about their effects.",
"Anthropologist Robert T. Boyd describes the epidemic as existing in a \"shadowy period at the juncture of the protohistoric and historic eras\", occurring almost immediately prior to sustained European presence in the Pacific Northwest.Nathaniel Portlock, docked at Chichagof Island, Alaska, in August 1787, encounter many Tlingit scarred or blinded by the disease, although noted that certain Tlingit populations appeared to have completely escaped its effects.",
"A Tlingit man, scarred by the disease, described losing ten children from the disease, each memorialized by a tattoo on his arm.",
"Portlock, noting that the man had several surviving children under the age of 10–12 years, concluded that it had been spread by Spanish explorers some time in the 1770s.",
"Étienne Marchand, visiting Sitka, also reported widespread pockmarks among the Tlingit.",
"Sailors of the ''Columbia Rediviva'' noted the recent presence of smallpox among the Ditidaht of Vancouver Island and the Tillamook of the Oregon Coast.George Vancouver and Peter Puget, in their 1790s expedition to the Pacific Northwest, noted significant amount of smallpox scarring and partial blindness among Coast Salish groups, including the Twana.",
"In 1806, the Lewis and Clark Expedition reported evidence of a smallpox epidemic \"28 or 30 years prior\" among the Clatsop.",
"Christian missionaries and employees of the Hudson's Bay Company both reported signs of a past smallpox epidemic in the interior northwest during the mid-1800s."
],
[
"Epidemiology",
"The 1770s epidemic was the most devastating and widespread of all recorded epidemics among the Northwest Coast natives, as well as the first recorded.",
"A virgin soil epidemic, it spread rapidly across a population which had no prior immunity to the disease.=== Origin ===The origin of the epidemic is unknown.",
"Kamchatka, New Spain, and the Great Plains have all been suggested as a possible origin point for the Northwestern epidemic.",
"It is possible that smallpox was simultaneously introduced from multiple sources to different regions.A Spanish origin for the pandemic is supported by the majority of scholarly literature.",
"Spanish explorers are known to have visited the Northwest Coast in 1774, 1775, and 1779.Folklore among Northern coast natives describing the arrival of \"disease boats\" has been used to support a Spanish origin for the epidemic.",
"Critiques of the theory include the lack of clear evidence of any disease except scurvy aboard the ships, voyages exceeding typical timelines for smallpox infectivity, and a lack of evidence for smallpox outbreaks in Mexico until the autumn of 1779, half a year after the departure of Arteaga's 1779 expedition.",
"However, the possibility of endemic smallpox in central Mexico, typical in such highly populated regions, would allow for disease transmission outside of periods of epidemic illness.",
"The 1775 expedition led by Bruno de Heceta and Bodega y Quadra has been cited as the most likely origin out of the Spanish expeditions.In 1768 and 1768, a devastating smallpox epidemic struck the Kamchatka Peninsula, killing thousands.",
"A Russian account describes the disease as spreading into the peninsula from the \"Eastern Islands\" (likely referring to the Kuril Islands) due to a single infected individual.",
"Support for the theory mainly stems from the earlier date for the pandemic estimated among the Tlingit and the presence of a Russian vessel in South Alaska during the Kamchatka epidemic.",
"However, accounts that Tlingit north of Sitka were spared of the disease heavily disrupts the theory.Theories alleging an origin from the Plains Indians rely on reports by missionaries and fur traders during the early 19th century describing the epidemic as coming from the plains during mountain-crossing bison hunts.",
"A large scale smallpox epidemic is attested among the Sioux and Blackfoot, but only beginning around 1780.Accounts by native informants may have confused the origins of the 1770s epidemic with another on the Columbia Plateau in 1801–1802, for which a Great Plains origin is firmly attested.",
"An earlier 1787–1788 account by the Piegan Blackfoot Saukamappee describes smallpox as spreading several years prior from the Shoshone into the Plains, indicating a possible spread from a 1781 pandemic among the Pueblo.=== Spread ===The epidemic is attested among the Tlingit, Haida, Coast Salish, Ditidaht, Chinook, Nuu-chah-nulth, Kwakwakaʼwakw, Tillamook, Nez Perce, Colville, Ktunaxa, and Bitterroot Salish.",
"Dates estimated for the epidemic among the coast predate those further inland by several years.==== Treatment ====Traditional medicine practitioners were unprepared to treat a highly infectious disease.",
"Group healing ceremonies were a common forms of folk medicine, but only served to further transmit the illness.",
"Sweat baths and immersion in cold water, common among Plateau groups, could lead to the death of the infected by shock or pneumonia.",
"However, the practice of burning the belongings of the deceased (including the homes for prestigious individuals) may have slightly diminished the spread."
],
[
"Effects and legacy",
"The deliberating effects of smallpox on infected individuals led to an inability to participate within hunting and foraging.",
"This may have led to intense malnutrition among tribal communities, most prominently on those who depended on others for food, such as young children and the elderly.",
"The effects of the illness additionally rendered breastfeeding impossible by infected mothers.",
"One Vancouver Island informant, as recorded by Edward Curtis, attributes the destruction of the Hoyalas tribe of Quatsino Sound to the epidemic, although other accounts attribute their disappearance to warfare.",
"Samish and Lummi oral histories also speak of the destruction of multiple villages, and the near-extinction of several tribes.Smallpox would reemerge in the region following the 1770s epidemic.",
"In 1782, two thirds of the Stó꞉lō died from a smallpox outbreak.",
"Other smallpox epidemics would occur in the Lower Columbia basin during the 1830s and 40s, and across wide swathes of British Columbia in the 1860s."

"NKVD prisoner massacre in Dubno"
],
[
"Introduction",
"The '''NKVD prisoner massacre in Dubno''' was a Soviet war crime conducted by the NKVD in the city of Dubno, then in occupied Poland and now in Ukraine.",
"Between 23 and 25 June 1941, following the German invasion of the USSR, the Soviets executed an estimated 500 to 550 prisoners held in the Dubno prison.",
"This atrocity was one of several prisoner massacres carried out by the Soviet secret police and army during the summer of 1941."
],
[
"Background",
"During the interwar period, Dubno () was located within the borders of the Second Polish Republic and served as the center of Dubno county in Wołyń Voivodeship.",
"After the German-Soviet invasion of Poland in 1939, the city fell under Soviet occupation.Those apprehended by the NKVD were confined in the cells of a pre-war Polish prison.",
"The prison building was located at Majora Matczyńskiego Street, in the eastern suburb of Dubno (so-called Surmicze), at the banks of the Ikva River, with some distance from more dense urban development.",
"The prison in Dubno was one of four Soviet prisons operating in Rivne Oblast.",
"It was referred to as 'Prison No.",
"2' in Soviet official documents.On June 22, 1941, Nazi Germany invaded the Soviet Union.",
"Due to the swift progress of the German offensive, the NKVD began exterminating political prisoners in the war zone.",
"In the summer of 1941, in the part of Poland occupied by the USSR, an estimated 20,000 to 30,000 individuals were murdered in prisons and detention centers."
],
[
"Massacre",
"Plaques at the prison wall, commemorating victims of the massacreAccording to documents from Soviet archives, as of June 10, 1941, the prison in Dubno held 816 inmates.",
"Additional NKVD records from June 1941 concerning the planned evacuation of the prisoners from Dubno indicated an intended evacuation of 696 or 738 inmates.",
"Bogdan Musiał estimated that approximately 600 people were held in the cells of Dubno prison shortly before the outbreak of the German-Soviet war.",
"The majority of the prisoners were Ukrainians and Poles, primarily residents of Dubno and Kremenets counties, as well as individuals from the southern part of the Zdolbuniv county.Upon learning of the outbreak of war, the Soviets darkened the prison building, increased the number of guards at its most important points, and tightened discipline, including forbidding walks.",
"From the morning hours of June 22, prisoners were no longer served meals.Dubno was located on the main direction of the German offensive, hence the NKVD began the mass liquidation of prisoners on the night of June 23–24.Due to the rapid advance of the German troops toward Dubno, the massacre was carried out very hastily, with no attempts to cover up its traces or hide the bodies.",
"NKVD men went from cell to cell, starting from the ground floor, ordering the prisoners to line up in front of the door.",
"Then they fired a burst of automatic weapons at them through the viewfinder or threw hand grenades into cells.}",
"If the victims showed signs of life, the NKVD men opened the doors and finished off the wounded with a pistol shot or a bayonet blow.",
"However, they were usually afraid to go deep into the men's cells, which is why some of the prisoners staying there had a chance of survival, especially if they had managed to hide in the corners of the room.",
"However, the perpetrators had no such fears in the case of women's cells, so among the survivors, female prisoners constituted a clear minority.In his report dated June 28, 1941, the prison warden claimed that it was impossible to evacuate prisoners.",
"Consequently, the deputy head of the NKVD for the Rivne Oblast, Lieutenant of State Security Klimov, ordered by telephone the execution of individuals convicted or accused of \"counter-revolutionary crimes.\"",
"According to the inhabitants of Dubno, the massacre was led by the head of the local NKVD post, named Winokur or Winokurow (of Jewish origins).",
"He was said to have personally murdered dozens of prisoners.",
"Both NKVD officers subordinated to him, and prison guards, participated in the executions.",
"Surviving prisoners claimed that during the massacre, one of the young female guards, a Jewish woman named Kagan (according to other sources her name was Hanna Berenstein), was particularly cruel.The NKVD reports indicate that in the Dubno prison, 230 prisoners \"decreased according to the first category,\" indicating they were executed.",
"They also inform that 170 people, usually imprisoned for minor crimes, were released, and 250 prisoners were evacuated to Rivne, with 20 sick and disabled people \"abandoned on the way.",
"\"Polish investigators and historians estimate that approximately 500–550 prisoners fell victim to the massacre.",
"Similar numbers are also provided by German and Ukrainian sources.",
"The victims were to include, among others: Polish women with small children, even infants, detained while trying to illegally cross the German-Soviet border.",
"One of the murdered was Teresa Trautman – a member of the Volhynian Rural Youth Union (), one of the organizers of the Union of Armed Struggle in Volhynia.Only a few prisoners survived the massacre.",
"One German report stated that there were only eight of them.",
"In turn, the prison warden estimated the number of inmates left in their cells at approximately 60–70 people.",
"After the perpetrators escaped, some of the survivors managed to break down the cell doors and escape through holes in the walls made by German bombs.",
"Injured prisoners were transported to a hospital on the river island of Pentalia."

[

"Keijō Nippō"

[
"Introduction",
" was a Japanese-language newspaper published in Korea from 1906 to 1945.It is primarily associated with the Japanese colonial period in Korea, and is considered to have functionally been an official newspaper of the Japanese Governor-General of Chōsen.During its peak around World War II, it was considered the top newspaper published in Korea, followed by the ''Fuzan Nippō'' and ''Chōsen Shinbun''.",
"Due to press centralization policies, from around 1942 to 1945 it was the only newspaper in Seoul with significant printing equipment.However, upon the August 15, 1945 announcement of the surrender of Japan, it became greatly destabilized.",
"With support from the remnants of the colonial government, it continued printing until October 31, 1945, in order to keep the Japanese residents of Korea informed of political developments.",
"After which, it was ordered to hand off the operation to Korean people.",

"The Korean Newspaper Archive has many issues from 1915 to 1945 available."
],
[
"Background",
"Japan began moving to incorporate Korea as its protectorate in the 1900's, and began publishing newspapers that promoted these themes and advocated for further Japanese control.",
"Japan's agenda was soon confronted by the English- and Korean-language newspaper ''The Korea Daily News'', run by British journalist in Korea Ernest Bethell, which dodged Japanese censorship and criticized Japan's treatment of Korea sharply.",
"In response, Japanese Resident-General of Korea Itō Hirobumi began issuing an English-language newspaper to counter Bethell's, entitled ''The'' ''Seoul Press''.",
"Japan also applied pressure on both Bethell and the British government to stop the newspaper's publication.",
"Bethell died in 1909 after a years-long legal battle, and his newspaper was sold and converted into the ''Maeil Sinbo'', which promoted Japanese government lines."

"History",
"=== Early history ===The ''Keijō Nippō'' was formed via a merger between around seven pro-Japanese newspapers in Korea, namely the ''Kanjō Shinpō'' and ''Daitō Shinpō''.",
"These two papers were acquired by the Japanese Resident-General of Korea in July and early August 1906.Resident-General Itō played a significant role in the ''Keijō Nippō's'' creation, and even reportedly proposed the name of the paper.",
"It is believed the paper was founded specifically to counter Bethell's papers.The paper was approved for creation on August 10, 1906, and published its first issue on September 1 of that year.",
"The original headquarters was located in what is now Pil-dong, on the north side of the mountain Namsan.",
"Its first president was a former editor-in-chief of ''The Asahi Shimbun'', Itō Yūkan ().",
"It was initially published with both Japanese and Korean editions, but it stopped publishing Korean editions on either April 21 or September 21, 1907 possibly due to a lack of public interest in the publication.",
"The newspaper's publication was temporarily restricted a number of times in 1908 because it published critically about Itō's handling of instability in the peninsula.",
"The paper advocated for harsher crackdowns on militant unrest.=== Colonial period ===On August 30, 1910, the ''Maeil Sinbo'' and ''Keijō Nippō'' were consolidated under a company Keijō Nippōsha (京城日報社), with the former's offices located inside the latter's headquarters.",
"In 1910, the ''Keijō Nippō'' was put under the management of Tokutomi Sohō.",
"Tokutomi was president of the major Tokyo-based newspaper ''''.",
"He brought many of his trusted journalist friends to Seoul to work on the paper.",
"The papers became so tied together, that journalists of ''Keijō Nippō'' reportedly jokingly called their office the \"branch office\" and the ''Kokumin'' office \"headquarters\".",
"The paper published along Japanese government lines, promoting the annexation and discouraging independence sentiment.The newspaper's headquarters beginning in 1924.Located along Jongno.In November 1914, it moved headquarters to the current location of the Seoul City Hall.",
"Its headquarters was destroyed in a fire in 1923.The former location became the city hall, and the new headquarters finished construction on June 15, 1924 at what is today the location of the headquarters of the .",
"''The Seoul Press'' was integrated into the ''Keijō Nippō'' in 1930.=== World War II ===World War II was a time of significant change for the media landscape in Korea.",
"During this period, the ''Keijō Nippō'' consolidated its position of prominence.On April 29, 1938, ''Maeil Sinbo'' became independent from ''Keijō Nippō''.''''",
"The two papers had long resented each other; staff of the more stable and profitable ''Keijō Nippō'' reportedly felt that they were keeping ''Maeil Sinbo'' financially afloat, and dubbed the Korean paper \"The Cancer of the ''Keijō Nippō''\".",
"On that same day, the Keijō Nippōsha began publishing a Japanese-language daily newspaper for children called ''Keinichi Shōgakkōsei Shinbun'' (京日少學生新聞), which renamed to ''Keinichi Shōkokumin Shinbun'' (京日少國民新聞) from April 1942.A number of Japanese policies during this period made market conditions more favorable to the ''Keijō Nippō''.",
"Education in the Korean language was banned, and the use of the Japanese language became required in a number of settings.",
"In 1940, the Japanese government began a policy that has been dubbed \"One Province, One Company\" (), under which Japanese- and Korean-language newspapers were made to consolidate or close.",
"The ''Chōsen Shinbun'' was merged into the ''Keijō Nippō''.''''",
"Furthermore, the Korean newspapers ''The Chosun Ilbo'' and ''The'' ''Dong-a Ilbo'' were forced to close, and their printing equipment was transferred to the ownership of the ''Keijō Nippō''.",
"By the time of Korea's 1945 liberation, the ''Keijō Nippō'' was the only facility with significant printing equipment in Seoul.",
"From 1942 to 1943, the newspaper's circulation increased by 200,000, and Koreans came to form 60% of the paper's customer base.=== Liberation of Korea and closure ===On August 15, 1945, Japan's loss in World War II was announced, which signaled the liberation of Korea.",
"The ''Keijō Nippō'' was informed of the announcement the evening prior, and had already prepared an article for the announcement.",
"Shortly after the announcement, it published its article.",
"Around this time, the newspaper company had around 2,000 employees, of which 100 were Korean.",
"Its circulation was around 410,000 copies, and its ''Shōkokumin Shinbun'' had around 390,000 copies.",
"Its final president was .The mimeograph edition of the ''Keijō Nippō'' that was posted around Seoul (August 18, 1945)The Japanese colonial bureau of information instructed Yokomizo to continue publishing, in order to support the Japanese settlers still remaining in Korea.",
"Korean employees of the paper requested that the paper be handed over to them on the 16th, and the ''Keijō Nippō'' leadership refused.",
"Korean workers went on strike; sand was thrown into the rotary press, which stopped the publication of the August 17 and 18 issues.",
"On August 18, Yokomizo created a handmade mimeograph edition of the paper, in which he relayed orders from the colonial government to maintain public order.",
"The newspaper's employees were paid a three-month salary in advance, in anticipation of further instability.For months afterwards, the newspaper's monopoly over printing equipment became a topic of contention for Koreans.",
"Korean employees and various left- and right-leaning Korean groups began advocating for seizing the newspaper's facilities.",
"For example, the left-leaning made an attempt to seize the equipment.",
"However, around 100 Japanese troops were stationed at the offices, which prevented any Korean seizures.",
"A faction of left-leaning Korean employees split off and founded their own newspaper, '''' on September 8.The final edition of the paper (December 11, 1945)The United States Army Military Government in Korea placed Seoul and Korea below the 38th parallel into an occupation zone in early September.",

"How Koreans are described in the newspaper has often been described by modern scholars as condescending and discriminatory.",
"Koreans who opposed Japanese policies were often described in the paper as backward \"barbarians\".",
"They were frequently contrasted with the \"civilized\" Japanese settlers.",
"After the nationwide pro-independence March 1st Movement protests in Korea, the paper mocked the activists.",
"It wrote in its March 7 edition that Koreans lacked an understanding of all the Japan had done for it, and that they were incapable of self-governance.",
"An article read: \"Koreans believe that after the President of the United States Woodrow Wilson established the League of Nations, even small and weak countries () would avoid the domination of Great Powers, and be able to maintain their national independence.",
"How foolish they are!\"",
"The writer concluded with \"Ah, you pitiful Koreans!",
"You are governed by evil thoughts...",

"The number of deployed officials had been reduced from five to three.",

"The new consulate general would have a focus on trade and finance.",
"San Francisco was opted out and instead the Consulate General in Los Angeles reopened in 1998, then closed in 2009.For several years, the organization Swedes Worldwide (''Svenskar i Världen'') had been lobbying the Minister for Foreign Affairs and the Ministry for Foreign Affairs for more Swedish missions worldwide, including a consulate general on the West Coast of the United States.",
"The organization had emphasized to Foreign Minister Ann Linde on multiple occasions that Swedes living on the West Coast of the United States were in great need of a consulate general.",
"The need became even more pressing when the mobile passport unit was discontinued in 2019, requiring Swedes on the West Coast and surrounding areas to travel to the Swedish embassy in Washington D.C. or the consulate general in New York City to renew their passports.===Reopening===The career consular mission opened on January 1, 2024 in San Francisco, and its areas of responsibility includes the states of California and Hawaii.",

"The property on Jackson Street consisted of two interconnected houses, built in 1915 and 1920, and was located in a desirable residential district near the city's business center.",
"It was intended for use as the residence for the consul general, as well as for the consulate general's office and the residence for the vice consul.",
"The property also offered opportunities for meeting spaces and facilities for seamen's reception.",
"A real estate expert had assessed that the property was in good condition, and the purchase was suggested as an economically advantageous solution.",
"The consul general justified the acquisition by pointing out the increasing rental costs for current premises and the difficulties for the staff in finding reasonable housing in San Francisco.",
"The purchase would also allow rental income from surplus housing within the property.",
"The National Board of Public Building (''Byggnadsstyrelsen'') reviewed plans and photographs, supporting the proposal.",
"The department head considered the property suitable and economically advantageous, proposing a budget of 590,000 kronor for the acquisition.",
"He also mentioned that certain furnishings should be obtained for seamen's and meeting rooms, to be funded from the proposed budget for stationery materials at embassies and consulates.The property comprised a total of 25 rooms.",
"The first house was intended for the residence of the consul general, who would have access to three living rooms and four bedrooms, in addition to the kitchen area and quarters for service personnel.",
"The ground floor and first floor of the second house were designated for spacious premises for the consulate general's office.",
"The third floor would be arranged as the residence for the vice consul, including a living room, dining room, three bedrooms, and a kitchen.",
"Additionally, the property included a caretaker's residence and a garage.",
"The original construction cost was stated as $300,000.The plot measured 45.7 x 38.7 meters, and its value was estimated at $75,000.The purchase price amounted to $160,000 or, in Swedish currency, 576,000 kronor.The house at 1960 Jackson Street contained 9,000 square feet four times the size of an average three-bedroom home, with 15 principal rooms, seven baths, sitting rooms, dressing rooms, servants' quarters and storage rooms and the \"secret passageways\" that connect it with 1950 Jackson next door.",
"The houses were designed by William Bliss of the firm of Bliss Faville, architects of the St. Francis Hotel the original Southern Pacific Building and the University Club.",
"The older, 1960 Jackson, was built in 1921 by Lillian Matson, wife of William Matson, Swedish-born founder of the Matson Navigation Co. About 1924, Mrs Matson built 1950 Jackson Street, on the right of the court, for her daughter and son-in-law Mr. and Mrs. William P. Roth.",
"The red brick buildings, which according to San Francisco's rigorous earthquake laws cannot be made of solid brick due to the risk of it collapsing in earthquakes, are therefore only clad in a brick facade.As the Swedish consulate general was downgraded to a consulate and then closed in 1983, the houses were put up for sale as the consulate relocated most of its staff to Los Angeles.",
"This move sparked concerns among Pacific Heights residents, echoing past disputes over the neighborhood's character.",
"Anne Bloomfield, representing the Pacific Heights Residents Association, vehemently opposes any proposal that conflicts with the single-family zoning of the Swedish Consulate's buildings.",
"This stance puts potential buyers in direct conflict with Bloomfield's organization, as well as city planning authorities.",
"Despite being listed for two months by Grubb and Ellis, the properties weren't sold, underscoring the shortage of single-family buyers.The conflict extends beyond the immediate neighborhood dynamics.",
"Mansion buyers often seek tax write-offs and attempt to repurpose these historic buildings into institutions or offices.",
"This clashes with residents like Mrs. Spreckels and Mrs. McGinnis, who strive to preserve Pacific Heights' unique character and avoid increased traffic.",
"The grandeur of the mansions, especially 1960 Jackson Street with its 9,000 square feet, poses challenges for potential buyers.",
"The high prices, ranging from $1.45 million to $125 million, deter families, and even if they can afford the purchase, the maintenance costs and sheer size of the properties make them impractical for many.",
"The history of conflicts over prime Pacific Heights property, such as the Matson family's earlier tussle before the Planning Commission, highlights the ongoing struggle between preservationists and those seeking to redefine the use of historic estates.",
"As the former Swedish Consulate's fate hangs in the balance, it reflects broader challenges in maintaining single-family residences amid evolving real estate trends in San Francisco.In 1987, the properties were bought by the German government, restored, and adapted for the German consulate general."

"The Pend d'Orielles reportedly described the springs as \"Big Medicine.",
"\"Pierre-Jean De Smet, a Jesuit missionary, visited and wrote about the springs in 1842.He recorded that the local Native people used the thermal springs \"after the fatigues of a long journey, they find that bathing in this water greatly refreshes them.\"",
"When Flathead Reservation was established, U.S. Congress set aside an reserve around the hot springs as part of the organizing legislation.The ''Great Falls Tribune'' reported that by 1905 the hot springs had primitive soaking pools, a hot spring water pool and mineral plunge built by townspeople, and hot mud baths, called a \"corn hole\" that allegedly cured rheumatism.",
"Built by Ed Lemoreaux, the pool was used until 1911.One pool was later covered in gazebo and branded as the Fountain of Youth.",

"Sino-Spanish conflicts"
],
[
"Introduction",
"The '''Sino-Spanish conflicts''' were a series of conflicts between the Spanish Empire and the Qing Dynasty between the 16th and 18th centuries over control of the Philippine islands."
],
[
"History",
"=== Origin of the conflict ===The Moro Sultanate of Sulu wanted to become a protectorate of China because of the Spanish Empire, but the ethnic Manchu Kangxi Emperor opposed fighting Spain and rejected this proposal.",
"Han Chinese Southern Ming commander Koxinga and his son Zheng Jing threatened to invade the Spanish Philippines in retaliation for the Sangley Massacre (1662), forcing the Spanish to permanently lose their Maluku Islands colony and withdraw from Mindanao's Zamboanga Peninsula for decades.",
"In the 18th century 4,000 Han joined the Moros to fight the Spanish and Han merchants shipped guns to the Moros in the late 19th century.",
"Koxinga's death stopped his planned invasion of the Spanish Philippines, but his son Zheng Jing forced Spain to pay tribute to him in Taiwan and to grant him extrajudicial rights over the Chinese community in Manila, and forbade the Spanish to proselytise their religion to Chinese.",
"Spanish Governor-General Manuel de León and Queen-Regent Mariana were unable to resist hi267 to investigate a report of a mountain of gold in Cavite.",
"The Spaniards were distrustful, suspecting these men of coming to spy out the situation and fortifications of the city, and thought that the story of the mountain of gold was merely a ruse for trying to find out how easily Manila could be taken.",
"So alarmed were government officials that after the mandarins left they took measures to improve their defenses.",
"These preparations in turn aroused the suspicions of the Chinese in Manila, who feared the Spaniards were about to massacre them and rose in revolt.",
"In Tondo and Quiapo they set fire to buildings and massacred natives, since there were few Spaniards in Manila.",
"To put down the revolt, 130 or 150 Spaniards under Luis Dasmariñas marched against the rebels, but were defeated and nearly all killed.",
"Then the Chinese stormed Intramuros, the old walled city, but were repulsed and driven to San Pablo del Monte.",
"There they were attacked by a large force of Spaniards and Filipinos, and twenty-three thousand of them perished in the fight.\"",
"Many Chinese fled to the country.",
"The Spaniards, fearing a plot began to threaten them.",
"On the night of October 3, 1603, the Chinese population of Manila, nearly 25,000 in number, rose in revolt.",
"A force of one hundred and fifty men attacked the Chinese.",
"All but four of the Spaniards were killed.",
"At dawn, October 5th, the rebels attacked the walled city.",
"The fight lasted several days.",
"Every Spaniard, including the friars, armed himself and fought.Finally the Spaniards, with the aid of some Japanese and Pampangans, drove away the Chinese, who fled to the mountains of San Pablo.",
"Here a large force of Spaniards and Filipinos surrounded and besieged them.",
"Hunger and attacks of the natives, who hated the Chinese, caused the death of about 23,000.=== 1662 Sangley massacre ===Koxinga resolved to conquer the Philippines and summoned the Italian Dominican missionary Vittorio Riccio, who had been living in Fujian province, and in the spring of 1662 dispatched him as an ambassador to the governor of the Philippines to demand the submission of the archipelago.Manila was thrown into a terrible panic by this demand; no such danger had threatened the Spanish in the Philippines since the invasion of Limahong.",
"The Chinese had an innumerable army, and their armament, stores, and navy had been greatly augmented by the surrender of the Dutch.",
"Governor Sabiniano Manrique de Lara however returned a defiant answer to Koxinga and adopted measures to put the colony in a state of defense.The Moluccas were forsaken and never again recovered by Spaniards.",
"The presidios of Zamboanga and Cuyo, , were abandoned.",
"Spanish troops were concentrated in Manila, whose fortifications were rebuilt, and the population waited anxiously for the attack.",
"But the blow never fell.Koxinga turned his attention to the conquest of Formosa, at the time a Dutch possession.",
"According to Dutch accounts, European settlers numbered about 600, with a garrison of 2,200.The Dutch artillery, stores and merchandise were valued at $8,000,000, and the Chinese, who attacked them under Koxinga, were about 100,000 strong.",
"The settlement surrendered to the invaders' superior numbers, and Koxinga established himself as king of the island.",
"Koxinga had made Riccio a mandarin and sent him as an ambassador to the governor of the Philippines.",
"He arrived in Manila in 1662 bearing Koxinga's despatches calling on the governor to pay tribute under threat of Koxinga attacking the colony if his demand was refused.Riccio was received with great honour in Manila, and rode to Government House in the full uniform of a Chinese envoy, through lines of troops drawn up to salute him as he passed.",
"At the same time, the Chinese in Manila had received letters from Foemosa, and the government a accused them of conniving at rebellion.",
"All available forces were concentrated in the capital; and to increase the garrison, the Governor published a decree, dated 6 May 1662, ordering the demolition of the forts of Zamboanga, Yligan (Mindanao), Calamian Islands) and Ternate in the Moluccas.",
"The only provincial fort preserved was that of Surigao (then called Caraga).The troops in Manila numbered 100 cavalry and 8,000 infantry.",
"Fortifications were raised, and redoubts were constructed in which to secrete treasury funds.",
"When all the armament was in readiness, the Spaniards incited the Chinese to rebel, to afford a pretext for their massacre.Two junk masters were seized, and the Chinese population was menaced; therefore they prepared for their own defence, and then opened the affray, for which the Government was secretly longing, by killing a Spaniard in the market place.",
"Suddenly artillery fire opened on the Parian, and many peaceful Chinese traders hanged themselvesin their terror; many were drowned in their attempt to reach the canoes and get away to sea; some few did safely arrive in Formosa Island and join Koxinga's camp, whilst others took to the mountains.",
"Some 8,000 to 9,000 Chinese remained quiet, but ready.They were suddenly attacked by Spaniards and natives.",
"The confusion was general, and the Chinese seemed to be gaining ground, so the governor sent Riccio and a certain Fray Joseph de Madrid to parley with them.",
"The Chinese accepted the terms offered by Riccio, who returned to the governor, leaving Fray Joseph with the rebels, but when Riccio went back with a general pardon and a promise to free the two junk masters, he found that the Moro had beheaded the priest.",
"A general carnage followed, and says that the original intention of the Spaniards was to kill all the Chinese, but they desisted in view of the inconvenience that would have ensued from the lack of tradesmen and mechanics.",
"Therefore, they made a virtue of a necessity, and graciously pardoned in the name of His Catholic Majesty all who laid down their arms.The Molucca Islands were definitely evacuated and abandoned by the Spaniards, although as many men and as much material and money had been employed in garrisons and conveyance of subsidies there as for the whole Philippine colony up to that time.=== 1750s expulsions ===When the Chinese were expelled from Manila in 1758, many of them went to Joló, where some 4,000 lived at the time of Cencelly's expedition; they sided the Joloans (Tausug Moros) against the Spaniards, and organized an armed troop to fight them.Pagan pure Han Chinese were expelled from Manila in 1755 and 1766, leaving only Chinese mestizo Catholics behind.",
"Chinese mestizos made up a huge fraction of the Philippine population and took over the retail trade from the pure Chinese.=== 1770s conflicts ===The Sulu kingdoms were tributaries to the Ming Dynasty and one Sulu king died in China during a tribute mission.",
"After Spanish persecution against Chinese in Luzon, thousands of Chinese fled to Sulu, and Sulu's Sultan Israel (1773–1778) was backed by 4,000 Chinese against the Spanish.",
"Chinese participated in events in Sulu's war against western colonialists, such as the 5 March 1775 attack against the Balambagan British outpost led by Chinese merchant Datu Teteng.",
"In the negotiations leading up to the 19 December 1726 treaty between Spain and Sulu, Sulu's representative was the Chinese Ki Kuan.",
"Many Chinese assimilated into Tausug-Sama people and Chinese surnames are found among them.",
"An Englishman named Brun joined the Jolo Moros under Datto Tetenz with 4,000 Chinese expelled from Manila by the British, and ravaged Cebu, harassing the coast.",
"\"In 1642 Generals Corcuero and Almonte made peace with Corralat, but piratical depredations by the Moros continued; Chinese rebellions embarrassed the Spaniards, who evacuated many places, and many fights were chronicled between the Moro fleets of Praus and the Spanish fleets.",
"The priests egged on the Spanish, and the Spanish King re-established, and then abandoned, many stations in Mindoro, Basilan Mindanao and Jolo.",
"Treaties were made and unmade.",
"Expeditions intended to be punitive were undertaken.",
"The Tawi-Tawi Moros nearly captured Zamboanga.",
"Engagements were constant with varying success until 1737.King Philip V. of Spain, pestered the Sultans of Jolo and Tomantaca (Mindanao) about not being Christians, but expeditions were as frequent as baptisms.",
"\"Anda took what precautions were available to restrain the Moro pirates, but great difficulties arose.",
"Ali-Mudin, whom the English had restored to his sway in Joló, and his son Israel (in whose favor the father abdicated) were friendly to the Spaniards, with many of their dattos; but another faction, led by Zalicaya, the commander of the Joloan armadas, favored the English, who had established themselves in 1762 on Balambangan in the Joló archipelago, which they had induced Bantilan to grant them.",
"The English were accused of trying to incite the Joloans against the Spaniards by intrigue and bribery.Anda sent an expedition to protest to the English their occupation of this Spanish territory, and entrusted this mission to an Italian officer named Giovanni Cencelly, who was then in command of one of the infantry regiments stationed at Manila; the latter sailed from Zamboanga December 30, 1773, bearing careful instructions to avoid any hostilities with the English and maintain friendship with the Joloans.",
"But Cencelly seems to have been quite destitute of tact or judgment, and even of loyalty to his governor; for he disobeyed his instructions and angered the Joloans, who could hardly be restrained by Ali-Mudin from massacring the Spaniards, and at the end of three weeks was obliged to return to Zamboanga.",
"He was on bad terms with the commandant there, Raimundo Español, and refused him any account of his proceedings at Joló.",
"He even tried to stir up sedition among the Spanish troops against Español.",
"The English gladly availed themselves of this opportunity to strengthen their own position in Joló, stirring up the islanders against Spain and erecting new forts.",
"Later, however, the English at Balambangan showed so much harshness and contempt for the Moro dattos (even putting one in the pillory) that the latter plotted to surprise and kill the intruders; and on March 5, 1775, did so, killing all the English being except the commandant and five others, who managed to escape to their ship in the harbor.",
"The Moros seized the fort, thus acquiring great quantities of military supplies, arms, money, and food, along with several vessels.",
"Among these spoils were forty-five cannons and $24,000 in silver.",
"Elated by this success, Tenteng, the chief mover of the enterprise, tried to secure Zamboanga the same way; but the new commandant there, Juan Bayot, was on his guard, and the Moros did not succeed.",
"Teteng then went to Cebú, where he committed horrible ravages.",
"Other raids of this sort were carried out, and for a long time the Spaniards were unable to check them.",
"A letter written to the king by Anda in 1773 had asked for money to build light armed vessels, and a royal order of January 27, 1776, commanded that 50,000 pesos be sent to Filipinas for this purpose.",
"This money was used by Anda's temporary successor, Pedro Sarrio, for the construction of a squadron of vintas, \"vessels which, on account of their swiftness and exceedingly light draft, were more suitable for the pursuit of the pirates than the very heavy galleys; they were, besides, to carry pilots of the royal fleet to reconnoiter the coasts, draw plans of the ports, indicate the shoals and reefs, take soundings in the sea, etc.\"",
"\"The Datos at once feared the vengeance of the English, and declared Tenteng unworthy of the rights of a Joloan and an outlaw from the kingdom with all his followers.",
"Sultan Israel wrote to the governor of Zamboanga, assuring him that neither he nor the Datos had taken part in this transgression; and he asked the governor to send him the Curia filipica and the Empresas políticas of Saavedra, in order that he might be able to answer the charges which the English would make against him.",
"(He had studied at the college of San José in Manila.)\"",
"Tenteng repaired to Joló with his booty and the captured English vessel; \"these were arguments in his favor so convincing that he was at once admitted.\"",
"He surrendered to the sultan all the military supplies and $2,000 in cash, and divided the spoils with the other datos; they received him with the utmost enthusiasm, and raised the ban from his head.",
"\"Around 1803, the squadron of General Alava returned to the Peninsula, the English again took possession of the island of Balanbangan; and it appears that they made endeavors to establish themselves in Joló, and were instigating the sultan and datos to go out and plunder the Visayas, telling the Joloans that they themselves only cared to seize Manila and the Acapulko galleon."

"Shortly after his high school matriculation, in 1969, Kgomo began his legal career as a court clerk and interpreter at the Commissioner's Court in Brits.",
"He continued to work in the courts while studying law, becoming a prosecutor in 1972 and a magistrate in 1974; he was promoted to regional magistrate in 1982.After completing his LLB in 1985, Kgomo was admitted as an advocate in 1986 and left the magistracy to practise at the North West Bar in Mafikeng.",
"He joined the National Association of Democratic Lawyers in 1989 and Lawyers for Human Rights in 1990, and he was the chairman of the North West Bar Council between 1997 and 1998.In 1998, he was appointed for the first time as an acting judge in the High Court of South Africa."
],
[
"Northern Cape High Court: 1998–2017",
"On 1 November 1998, Kgomo joined the bench permanently as a judge of the Northern Cape Division of the High Court.",
"He was the division's first black judge.",
"After three years as a puisne judge, he was promoted to the position of Judge President of the division with effect from 1 November 2001.=== Notable judgments ===In mid-2001, Kgomo was seconded to Pretoria High Court, where he heard two high-profile cases brought by lesbian judges of the Gauteng Division.",
"In the first matter, he ruled in favour of Anna-Marie de Vos and her partner in finding that provisions of the Child Care Act and the Guardianship Act were unconstitutional insofar as they prohibited same-sex couples from jointly adopting children.",
"In the second matter, he ruled in favour of Kathy Satchwell in finding that provisions of the Judges' Remuneration and Conditions of Employment Act were unconstitutional insofar as they discriminated against the same-sex life partners of judges.",
"Kgomo's judgments in both matters were upheld by the Constitutional Court of South Africa in 2002, in ''Du Toit v Minister for Welfare and Population Development'' and ''Satchwell v President of the Republic of South Africa'' respectively.In February 2007, in the Kimberley High Court, Kgomo convicted Joseph le Grange of the murder of a teenage boy who had been stabbed in Prieska in March 2004.However, in September 2008, the Supreme Court of Appeal held unanimously that Kgomo had not granted le Grange and his alleged accessories a fair trial, with Judge of Appeal Nathan Ponnan writing that Kgomo \"was not fair and impartial\", that his approach was \"certainly suggestive of one who has certain preconceived biases and allows those biases to affect his judgment\", and that \"he sought, it would seem, from time to time to expedite the hearing of the matter by virtually taking over the prosecution from counsel for the State\".",
"The Supreme Court of Appeal referred the matter back to the High Court, instructing that Kgomo should not participate in the proceedings.Later that year, in December 2008, Kgomo, sitting as an acting Judge of Appeal, wrote on behalf of a unanimous bench of the Supreme Court of Appeal in ''S v van Aardt'', an important judgment on ''dolus eventualis'' in criminal law.=== 2008 Judicial Service Commission hearing ===In October 2008, the Judicial Service Commission shortlisted Kgomo both for possible elevation to the Supreme Court of Appeal and for possible elevation to Justice Tholie Madala's former seat in the Constitutional Court.",
"The ''Mail & Guardian'' said that Kgomo was viewed as one of the weakest Constitutional Court nominees, and he was also expected to face tough questioning on his conduct in the le Grange murder conviction, which had recently been overturned by the Supreme Court.",
"He was interviewed at a Judicial Service Commission hearing in Cape Town, during which he apologised for mistakes he had made during the le Grange trial.",
"However, many of the commissioners expressed concern, including opposition politician Koos van der Merwe, who told Kgomo outright that he would argue that he was not \"fit and proper\" to serve as an appellate judge.",
"Commissioner Lindiwe Hendricks also raised a negative submission from the bar, which had raised concerns about Kgomo's \"temperament\"; Kgomo disputed the accuracy of the submission, pointing out that the bar had supported his elevation to the judge presidency.Because other candidates had withdrawn from contention, there were only four candidates for the Constitutional Court vacancy: Kgomo and Judges Edwin Cameron, Shenaz Meer, and Nigel Willis.",
"However, the Judicial Service Commission declined to make a recommendation to the President, saying that it could not fulfil its obligation to recommend four candidates as suitable for appointment.",
"Anonymous commissioners told the ''Mail & Guardian'' that the majority of members had felt that Kgomo was not \"appointable\".",
"Kgomo likewise did not gain elevation to the Supreme Court; Suretta Snyders and Nonkosi Mhlantla were appointed instead.=== Controversies ===Between 2006 and 2008, Kgomo was embroiled in a dispute with two judges of his division, Judges Steven Majiedt and Hennie Lacock, which arose when Kgomo recommended that Pule Tlaletsi, a relatively junior judge, should be appointed as acting Judge President while he (Kgomo) took leave.",
"In 2006, Kgomo laid a complaint against Majiedt and Lacock with the Judicial Service Commission in 2006, alleging that they had insulted him – in particular, Majiedt was accused of having called Kgomo a \"sly, devious, conniving person, but also a coward\", motivated by \"sheer racism and malice\", in a text message.",
"Majiedt laid a counter-complaint of discrimination, racism, and nepotism against Kgomo.",
"The dispute was resolved in October 2008 without formal censure against any of the parties, though the Judicial Service Commission urged Kgomo \"to act in an open and collegial spirit in carrying out his duties as Judge President\".In December 2016, politician John Block named Kgomo in a misconduct complaint he lodged before the Judicial Service Commission.",
"He alleged that Judge Violet Phatshoane, who had recently convicted him of corruption, had been improperly influenced by Kgomo, who, according to a putative eyewitness, had urged Phatshoane to \"Convict the bastard\".",
"Phatshoane and Kgomo both denied having had any such conversation, and the alleged eyewitness (attorney Nano Matlata) also denied any knowledge of such a conversation; the Judicial Service Commission dismissed the complaint against Phatshoane.",
"However, in 2019, Kgomo sued Block and two implicated attorneys for defamation.",
"The defamation case opened in the Northern Cape High Court in 2023.On two occasions in 2017, as Kgomo's retirement approached, the Judicial Service Commission discussed rumours that Kgomo had interfered inappropriately in the process to appoint new leaders in the Northern Cape Division; in particular, he was accused of \"grooming\" Judge Phatshoane as his preferred successor."
],
[
"Retirement",
"Kgomo retired from the judiciary on his 70th birthday on 17 September 2017.The following month, Police Minister Fikile Mbalula announced that he had been appointed to succeed the late judge Essa Moosa as the head of the complaints unit of the Directorate for Priority Crime Investigation."

"He currently serves in the Limpopo Division of the High Court, but he joined the bench on 1 May 2008 as a judge of the Gauteng Division, following his shortlisting for that position in February 2008.Sitting in the Johannesburg High Court in 2010, Kgomo heard the Brett Kebble murder trial and dismissed the murder charges against Glenn Agliotti.In April 2015, ahead of the appointment of the new Limpopo Division, Kgomo was one of seven candidates whom the Judicial Service Commission shortlisted and interviewed for possible appointment as inaugural Judge President of the new division.",
"He was not recommended for the post, which instead went to Ephraim Makgoba, under whom Kgomo had worked as a young attorney.A year later, in April 2016, Kgomo was one of three candidates – the others being Legodi Phatudi and Fikile Mokgohloa – shortlisted and interviewed for possible appointment as Deputy Judge President of the Limpopo Division.",
"During that interview, Judicial Service Commission member Julius Malema accused Kgomo of being \"sexist\" after he commented that retention of women judges was low because women lawyers were attracted to civil service positions that came with \"expensive motor vehicles\".",
"Mokgohloa was appointed to the deputy judge presidency instead.In 2023, GroundUp reported that two of Kgomo's judgments in the Thohoyandou High Court had been outstanding for over three years."

"Waves at Matsushima"
],
[
"Introduction",
"'''''Waves at Matsushima''''', also named '''''Pine Islands''''', is a pair of early modern Japanese paintings on two six-fold screens, made by artist Tawaraya Sōtatsu in the 1620s.",
"The two screens are made with ink, color, gold, and silver on paper.",
"They are symbolic of Sōtatsu's aspirations for the afterlife, and were likely commissioned to celebrate the opening of the Shōunji zen temple in Sakai.",
"The pair has been associated with the coastline of Matsushima, though they were named in the early 20th century, and likely represent no specific location.The pair is the only surviving work of the six done by Sōtatsu.",
"They are considered Sōtatsu's masterwork, and an icon of Kyoto's Rinpa school of art.",
"They inspired paintings by Ogata Kōrin and Suzuki Kiitsu, which were also named ''Waves at Matsushima''.",
"Kōrin's work, painted in the early 17th century, brought attention to Sōtatsu's version."
],
[
"Background",
"Tawaraya Sōtatsu was a Japanese artist who worked in \"relative anonymity\" as a part of the \"craftsmen\" class of artists during the early 17th century.",
"He was a central figure of the Rinpa school of art in Kyoto.",
"The Rinpa school of art grew in the early seventh century with the establishment of the ''bakufu'' (military government) in Edo, later named Tokyo.",
"During that time, large-format paintings on folding screens and sliding doors were common, and located in castles, palaces, or temples.",
"They usually had floral and faunal subjects.",
"The chief patrons of Rinpa artists were traditional courtiers, wealthy merchants, and the \"new warrior elite\".",
"From about 1600 to 1640, he decorated elements of important documents and paper fans.",
"He worked at the Tawaraya, his studio and shop in Kyoto.",
"His most famous technique was ''tarashikomi'', or \"a pooling of pigment or ink in partially dried layers, which encouraged random, semi-translucent shapes to form\".",
"His works were rendered with planes of shadow, in different tones of grey and black."
],
[
"Composition",
"An example of ''tarashikomi'' in the pooled brown-and-blue pigments of the right screen''Waves at Matsushima'', also known as ''Pine Islands'', is a pair of paintings on two six-fold screens, in the medium of ink, color, gold, and silver on paper.",
"Each are 12 feet in width.",
"The works use ''tarashikomi'', which can be seen in the pooled brown-and-blue gradients of the right screen.The painting has been associated with the coastline of Matsushima, though the paintings were named post-creation, and likely represent no specific location.",
"In the scene, a sea with waves surrounds rocks growing with pine trees.",
"The rocks are colored green, blue, brown, and are highlighted with gold.",
"The waves consist of alternating lines of white and gold.",
"The clouds and embankments are made of gold leaf particles, accented with a silver pigment which has turned to a soft black over time.",
"The painting contains intentional remnants of the painting's creation, such as \"dark outlines, intentional layered bleeding of pigments, and the clear remainders of pigment granules\".",
"Sōtatsu's signature is in the corner.",
"Sōtatsu uses a large amount of gold leaves for color, which Rinpa scholar Yamane Yūzō argues is for \"an all-encompassing sense of well-being and abundance\".The pair was painted in the 1620s, specifically in the Kan'ei era (1624-1644).",
"It's the only surviving work of the six pairs done by Sōtatsu.",
"These types of paintings were usually used as a backdrop on special occasions, such as a celebration of the changing seasons, or the visit of a dignitary.",
"They were likely commissioned in the late 1620s by wealthy sea captain and merchant Tani Shōan to celebrate the opening of the Shōunji zen temple at the port of Sakai.",
"The painting was recorded as being at the temple.",
"Shōan was retiring with the temple's opening.",
"This type of painting was usually made members of a \"painterly\" class, higher than Sōtatsu's \"craftsmen\" class.",
"However, an exception was made for Sōtatsu in a time of \"unusual social fluidity\", through his \"sheer talent alone\".File:SotatsuScreen1.jpg|Left screenFile:FS-F1906.231 001.jpg|Right screen"
],
[
"Legacy",
"The pair is seen as Sōtatsu's masterwork.",
"Sōtatsu's work had gone mostly unnoticed after his death in the 1640s.",
"However, his work had an impact on \"generations of famous artists\" in those years.",
"The pair inspired works by Ogata Kōrin and Suzuki Kiitsu, which were also named ''Waves at Matsushima.''",
"Kōrin's work was \"deeply indebted to Sōtatsu\", and he painted a six-fold screen in the early 18th century which was based on Sōtatsu's ''Matsushima''.",
"Compared to Sōtatsu's painting, Kōrin's has more \"assertive\" waves and sharper color contrasts.",
"After Kōrin's work, Sōtatsu's original became an icon of the Rinpa canon.",
"Kōrin's work was lost, but a copy on woodblock print was made by Sakai Hōitsu in 1826, in his second collection of works titled ''One Hundred Paintings by Kōrin''.",
"Kiitsu studied the Rinpa masters, and made two sliding doors that resemble the other two's screens.",
"In the late 1800s, a group of Western collectors, including Charles Lang Freer, started collecting Sōtatsu's work.",
"The name ''Waves at Matsushima'' was given to the screens in the early 20th century.",
"Freer bought the work, which was labeled as ''Rolling Waves and Rocks'', in 1906 for $5,000.He initially displayed it in his Detroit home.",
"It was further popularized after an exhibition at an unnamed gallery in 1913, which influenced Henri Matisse and Gustav Klimt, and an exhibition at the Tokyo Museum in 1947, when Sōtatsu had an exhibition along with Henri Mattise.",
"Viewers were surprised to see Mattise and Sōtatsu's similarities.",
"They are located in the Smithsonian's Freer Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., where they have been since 1919, and they are seen as one of the gallery's masterpieces.",
"They were in an exhibit at the Smithsonian's Sackler Gallery in 2011, and in “Sōtatsu: Making Waves”, at the Freer Gallery from 2015 to 2016.File:KorinsScreen.webp|Ogata Kōrin's ''Waves at Matsushima'', early 18th century, 1826 copy by Sakai HōitsuFile:KiitsuScreen1.png|A sliding door from Suzuki Kiitsu's ''Waves at Matsushima'', c.1832-36File:KiitsuScreen2.png|The other sliding door of Kiitsu's"

"Nayakan (soundtrack)"
],
[
"Introduction",
"'''''Nayakan''''' is the soundtrack to the 1987 Tamil-language epic crime drama film of the same name directed by Mani Ratnam, starring Kamal Haasan.",
"The film's musical score is composed by Ilaiyaraaja, whose soundtrack features five songs under the lyrics of Pulamaipithan and Ilaiyaraaja himself.",
"The soundtrack, which was released under the Echo label, became popular after the film's release."
],
[
"Development",
"''Nayakan'' is Ilaiyaraaja's sixth collaboration with Mani Ratnam—following ''Pallavi Anu Pallavi'' (1983), ''Unaroo'' (1984), ''Pagal Nilavu'', ''Idaya Kovil'' (both 1985) and ''Mouna Ragam'' (1986)—and also his 400th as a composer.",
"Vaali who had previously worked with Ratnam and Ilaiyaraaja since Pagal Nilavu, could not write the lyrics for the songs due to time constraints.",
"Instead, Pulamaipithan was hired as the lyricist, who contributed to all the songs except for \"Nila Adhu Vanathumele\", which Ilaiyaraaja himself wrote.",
"The songs \"Andhi Mazhai Megam\" and \"Nila Adhu Vanathumele\" were set in the Carnatic Natabhairavi and Keeravani ragas, while \"Nee Oru Kaadhal Sangeetham\" is in the Hindustani raga Desh.",
"The song is featured on both sides of the original LP record as the second track.",
"For the song \"Naan Sirithal Deepavali\", Ilaiyaraaja collaborated with K. Jamuna Rani and M. S. Rajeswari to perform the song, due to the film's setting in the late-1960s.The theme song \"Thenpandi Cheemayile\" plays for most of the film; during the introduction titles, it has the colloquial line \"''yaar adichaaro''\" (sung by Ilaiyaraaja), but when it plays later in the film, the line is altered to the more polished \"''yaar adithaaro''\" (sung by Haasan).",
"Film critic Baradwaj Rangan asked Ratnam whether this change was an indication to the eventual refinement of Velu.",
"Ratnam said that Ilaiyaraaja's portions were recorded first, and that when they went for recording, they had this rustic version which lacked background music, and was of folk quality.",
"Because the song was going to be repeated throughout the film, they also wanted a more orchestral version, and in this version sung by Haasan, the language became more sophisticated.",
"Though Ratnam liked the original tune Ilaiyaraaja created for \"Thenpandi Cheemayile\", he felt it did not suit the song's narrative; the original tune was then used for \"Nila Adhu Vanathumele\".During the production of this film, Ratnam simultaneously worked ''Agni Natchathiram'' (1988) as did Ilaiyaraaja.",
"He recorded string instruments and orchestra for ''Nayakan'' during morning hours, and recorded electronic instruments for ''Agni Natchathiram'', as the film featured synth-pop music."
],
[
"Track listing"
],
[
"Reception and legacy",
"Ilaiyaraaja's music was acclaimed by critics for using the periodic instruments set in tune with the storyline.",
"Writing for ''India Today'', Madhu Jain wrote that \"Illayaraaja's innovative music balances the film's obvious excesses\".",
"''The News Minute''-based critic Ananda Kumar R. S. called Nayagan as \"one of his Ilayaraaja's best works\".All the songs in the film attained popularity, post-release, especially the song \"Thenpandi Cheemayile\" which had been referenced and parodied by several filmmakers in Tamil, becoming an integral part in the pop-culture.",
"During the ''Rock with Raaja'' concert on March 2022, Dhanush re-created the tune of \"Nila Adhu Vanathumele\" as a lullaby, altering the lyrics and performed it on stage, dedicating it to his sons Yatra and Linga."

"Furthermore, he made a foray into the Hindi film industry, featuring in the film ''Love in Goa'' in 1983.Additionally, Preto showcased his entrepreneurial spirit by producing three audio cassettes: ''Retired Tarvotti'', ''Don't Worry Be Happy'', and ''Goa Amcho Ganv''.",
"Moreover, he released a Konkani video CD titled ''Toxench Guneanvkari Konn?",
"'', which garnered attention in the market.",
"Preto's contributions to the Konkani stage were duly recognized.",
"Konkani playwright John Claro bestowed upon him the honorary title of the \"Vasco da Gama of the Konkani stage.\"",
"This accolade acknowledged Preto's extensive national presence and his ability to stage ''tiatrs'' in diverse locations throughout the country.Wilson Mazarello, a historian and singer in the Konkani community, has provided insights into the early career of Preto.",
"According to Mazarello's scholarly work, Preto initially made his mark on the Konkani stage during a ''tiatr'' performance by Frank de Santacruz.",
"It was during this ''tiatr'' that Preto was given the opportunity to showcase his singing talent, as his physical resemblance to the Konkani comedian, Anthony Mendes, led to him being dressed as Mendes.",
"The striking resemblance between the two made it challenging to differentiate between them.",
"Preto, during his leisure time, engaged in writing ''tiatrs'', but he hesitated to share them with others.",
"However, he eventually mustered the courage to stage his own ''tiatr'', ''Disgrass'', at Cama Hall, Bombay.",
"To ensure the success of his production, Preto enlisted the participation of accomplished actors from Goa, including Minguel Rod, Kid-Young-Rod (Kid Boxer, Young Menezes and Minguel Rod), Diago Cardozo, and Andrew Fernandes.",
"Minguel Rod was entrusted with the responsibility of directing the ''tiatr''.",
"''Disgrass'' was performed at multiple venues, including Cama Hall, Warden Road, Kalyan Railway Hall, and Juhu Koliwada.",
"The positive response to these shows encouraged Preto to pursue acting opportunities in ''tiatrs'' directed by others.In 1952, Preto achieved a significant milestone in his career when he acted in his own written and Minguel Rod-directed ''tiatr'', ''Disgrass'', which was staged thirteen times.",
"This production catapulted Preto into the ranks of professional ''tiatrists''.",
"Subsequently, he became a sought-after actor for Konkani directors such as J. P. Souzalin, Jacint Vaz, Saib Rocha, C. Alvares, Prem Kumar, Remmie Colaco, M. Boyer, Alfred Rose, Kid Boxer, Minguel Rod, Rico Rod, Ophelia, and Bab Peter.",
"Preto's contributions extended beyond acting, as he showcased his vocal abilities by performing solo as well as duet songs in numerous ''tiatrs''.In January 1961, Preto made history by organizing the first-ever tiatr called Mogak Lagon (Because of Love) in Delhi.",
"He further expanded his organizing skills by staging another ''tiatr'', ''Bomboikarachi Bail'' (The Woman from Bombay), in Belgaum.",
"This experience propelled Preto into becoming a contractor for other directors, independently as well as in collaboration with groups like the Syndicate.",
"He played a pivotal role in contracting a substantial number of ''khell tiatrs'' and Non-Stop Shows in Bombay, which were produced by writers and directors from Goa.",
"Preto's comedic prowess endeared him to audiences, leading to a multitude of comedy roles being offered to him by directors.",
"However, he also demonstrated his versatility by portraying character roles in numerous ''tiatrs''.",
"Preto's creative talents extended beyond acting and singing, as he also wrote and directed his own ''tiatrs''.",
"Some examples of his work include ''Soitanachi Tainni'' (The Temptation of Truth), ''Mogak Lagon'', ''Xevott Kirmidoracho'' (The End of Criminals), ''Disgrass'', and ''Atanchim Kazaram'' (The Marriages of Today)."

"Personal life",
"Preto was a nearby resident of Alfred Rose and, as documented in the book ''100 Years of Konkani Tiatro'' published in 2000, he and his family made their home in Mahim, Mumbai.===Abu Dhabi incident===During his career, Preto encountered several incidents while participating in tiatr performances.",
"One such incident took place in Abu Dhabi during C. Alvares' ''tiatr'' production titled ''Honrad Goenkar''.",
"As the show was about to commence, Preto received an urgent call and rushed towards the source, inadvertently entering a concealed hole on the darkened stage.",
"Falling a considerable distance, he found himself trapped below the stage, unable to be heard by the audience above.",
"Despite Preto's pleas for help, the spectators grew impatient and urged the performers to proceed with the show.",
"Unbeknownst to them, another individual, drawn by the sound of Preto's clapping, also fell into the same hole while attempting to locate him.",
"A third person who joined the search suffered a similar fate.",
"Eventually, all three were rescued from the depths of the hole, but not without sustaining physical injuries and damaging their wristwatches during the fall.",
"The incident prompted the organizers to cancel the ''tiatr'' performance and conduct a thorough inspection.",
"As a gesture of goodwill, new watches were presented to all the ''tiatr'' artists involved.===Petromax lamp incident===In another incident, Alfred Rose staged his ''tiatr'' production called ''Dotor Advogad'' (Doctor Advocate) in the village of Raia, Goa, near the Church.",
"This particular performance stood out as it marked the transition from a traditional wooden stage to a modern metal stage.",
"Given the absence of electricity during those early years, the ''tiatr'' relied on petromax lamps for stage lighting.",
"However, an incident occurred during the show when one of the petromax lamps exploded.",
"Swift reflexes allowed Preto to avoid the flames by quickly evading them.",
"However, his fellow troupe member, Rico Rod, was not as fortunate and suffered burns, prompting him to vigorously attempt to extinguish the fire on his person.",
"Aristides Dias, a Konkani playwright, displayed bravery and resourcefulness by swiftly intervening and smothering the flames with his own shirt, effectively preventing further harm."
