# Ted Cowan
Ted Cowan, being the best known familiar name of Edward George Cowan, was a British comic book writer.
His early career included working as a laboratory assistant prior to World War II when he enlisted firstly in the Royal Air Force and subsequently in the British Army where he was a dispatch rider. After the war he initially continued in the Services in a clerical capacity when he began to make the change to writing.
Having long been fascinated by the comics of the day, it was in response to a friendly challenge that he submitted a story for an amateur writing competition in a newspaper. Shortly afterwards he landed work for The Champion, writing the text story series about schoolboy Ginger Nutt. An increasing number of commissions prompted him to resign his regular job in order to turn professional as a freelance scriptwriter.
This was the start of nearly four decades of working in the British comic industry where at his peak he was considered among the most prolific writers of children's scripts in Fleet Street, London. He not only wrote for comics, but also annuals, "Libraries," and short stories for many publishers including Odhams Press, Fleetway Publications, IPC Media, and extensively in later years DC Thomson of Dundee, Scotland.
Undoubtedly his most famous creation was for Lion, for which he conceptualised Robot Archie (initially known as The Jungle Robot) which he would script for much of the strip's run. Archie, which first appeared in Lion's launch issue published on 23 February 1952, was 'operated' by the fictional Ted Richie and his best friend Ken Dale. Archie has been translated and published in foreign languages including French where he is known as both Archie Le Merveilleux Robot (The Marvellous Robot) and Archie l'homme d'acier (The Man of Steel) and Dutch, Archie de Man van Staal (The Man of Steel).
Another famous creation also for Lion was the anti-hero The Spider, which after the character's conception and first two complete stories was subsequently scripted by Jerry Siegel (though Cowan would return to script "The Bubbles of Doom" for the character's Super Library Stupendous Series). These first two stories by Ted Cowan were reprinted in full in 2005 in a new hardback picture strip book, the King of Crooks, together with other content.
His Tarzanesque jungle story Saber King of the Jungle for Tiger was later reprised in France as Yataca.
Cowan died in the early 1970s.

# Bench press
The bench press or chest press is a weight training exercise where a person presses a weight upwards while lying horizontally on a weight training bench. The bench press is a compound movement, with the primary muscles involved being the pectoralis major, the anterior deltoids, and the triceps brachii. Other muscles located in the back, legs and core are involved for stabilization. A barbell is generally used to hold the weight, but a pair of dumbbells can also be used.
The barbell bench press is one of three lifts in the sport of powerlifting alongside the deadlift and the squat, and is the only lift in Paralympic powerlifting. The bench press is also extensively used in weight training, bodybuilding, and other types of training to develop upper body muscles, primarily the pectoralis major. To improve upper body strength, power, and endurance for athletic, occupational, and functional performance as well as muscle development, the barbell bench press is frequently used.
## Movement
The person performing the exercise lies on their back on a flat bench with a barbell grasped in both hands. They lower the barbell to chest level until it touches the chest, then press the barbell upwards, extending the arms until their arms are moderately straight. This is one repetition (rep).
PowerliftingPosition yourself on a flat bench with body weight resting on your buttocks and upper traps, an arched back, and feet pressed against the floor. The weight must be lifted at full arm's length, lowered to upper torso, paused, and then lifted to starting position. Improving performance in powerlifting involves powerlifters implementing specific techniques. These include arching, taking deep breaths, and actively pressing their feet into the floor. These methods engage all body parts during the lift, ensuring proper weight distribution across the back, legs, and the floor. While there is criticism of the back arch, it is the safest and most effective way to bench press. The main debate for the use of the back arch during the bench press in powerlifting is how it shortens ones range of motion, thus making the lift easier to perform at higher weights. This shortened range of motion allows the one performing the bench press to ultimately reduce the amount of energy exerted during the lift leading to more weight being put up.
## History
The bench press has evolved over the years, from floor, bridge, and belly toss variations to the methods used by bodybuilders and powerlifters today. It became popular from the late 1950s onwards. Despite the fact the parallel dip is safer (the dip does not require spotters or safety bars), in the 1950s the bench press overtook the dip in popularity and became the standard chest exercise.
At first the strict floor press was the most popular method. In 1899, using a barbell with 48 centimetres (19 in) discs (plates), George Hackenschmidt rolled a barbell over his face (which was turned to the side) and performed a strict floor press with 164 kilograms (362 lb). This stood as a record for 18 years until Joe Nordquest broke it by 1 kilogram (2.2 lb) in 1916.
Around this time, new methods started gaining ground. Lifters began to discover that strong glutes could help them get the bar from the ground to overhead. They would lie on the floor and position the bar over their abdomen, then perform an explosive glute bridge movement, catapulting the bar upwards and catching it at lockout.
Lifting techniques, training, and drugs have improved over the years and the bench press record lift has grown from 164 kilograms (362 lb) to 355 kilograms (783 lb) (raw, record held by Julius Maddox) in approximately 100 years.
## Muscles
A conventional bench press uses the pectoralis major, front deltoids, and triceps brachii to horizontally adduct the shoulder. While flat bench pressing, the pectoralis major and pectoralis minor muscles are activated. The exercise also uses the triceps and anconeus to extend the elbows. The triceps are most crucial around the end of the press to help complete and lock out the elbows. With the right form, parts of the deltoids will be used to help make the lift, including the anterior deltoids. Wider hand spacing places a greater emphasis on shoulder flexion and narrower hand spacing utilizes more elbow extension. Because of this, wider hand spacing is associated with training the pectorals and narrower hand spacing is associated with training the triceps. Both close and wide hand spacing train the deltoid area.
In addition to the major phasic (dynamic) muscles, the bench press also uses tonic (stabilizing) muscles, including the scapular stabilizers (serratus anterior, middle, and inferior trapezius), humeral head stabilizers (rotator cuff muscles), and core (transverse abdominis, obliques, multifidus, erector spinae, quadratus lumborum.)
## Variations
Variations of the bench press involve different groups of muscles, or involve the same muscles in different ways:
- Inclination
- Flat bench press: The flat bench press involves both portions of the pectoralis major muscle but focuses on the lower (sternal) head as well as the anterior deltoid muscle. The term 'bench press' on its own is assumed to refer to a flat bench press.
- Incline bench press: An incline elevates the shoulders and lowers the pelvis as if reclining in a chair; this variation emphasizes the anterior deltoids and the upper (clavicular) head of the pectoralis major. This variation is called the incline bench press or called an incline press.
- Decline bench press: A decline bench press elevates the pelvis and lowers the head and emphasizes the lower portion of the pectoralis major whilst incorporating shoulders and triceps. This variation is known as the decline bench press or the decline press.
- Grip A woman explains how to properly perform the dumbbell bench press and the dumbbell incline bench press
- Reverse grip: A reverse grip bench press utilizes an underhand (supinated) grip on the bar. A supinated grip externally rotates the humerus, which puts the shoulders in a much more favorable position for the lift, decreasing injury potential without compromising the range of motion. It emphasizes the clavicular head of the pectoralis major more than an incline bench press. On the eccentric phase of the lift, the bar path will create a larger arc and eventually touch a point on the chest that is lower compared to the regular bench press, because the upper arms and elbows are closer to the body and the angle between the humerus and the torso is smaller.
- Narrow grip (close grip): A bench press performed with the hands close together. It relies on the triceps to complete the pressing motion.[4] Called the close grip bench press, this variation is best performed with arms in a near-vertical position to reduce strain placed upon the wrists, elbows, and shoulders. A close grip bench press can also be performed with dumbbells or a barbell with neutral grips.
- Wide grip: A bench press performed with the hands far apart. It shortens the range of motion, lessening the contribution of the triceps.
- Suicide grip (false grip, thumbless grip): Instead of the thumb being wrapped underneath the barbell, the thumb is placed next to the index finger where it sits on top of the barbell. Although it has its pros and cons, the suicide grip is sometimes used because it places the wrist in a better position, keeping shoulders safer, and allowing lifters to activate their triceps more.[9] This grip is considered unsafe as it presents the risk of the bar rolling out of the lifters hand which in turn may cause injury by the dropped bar[10]
- Arched Back: Bench press can be performed with an arched back to engage the lower part of the pectoral muscle. This allows the lifter to lift heavier weights[11]
- Different lowering targets
- A lifter can elect to lower the bar to nipple level, to the xiphoid process, or even further, to the abdomen.
- On the other hand, a lifter may lower the bar to a very high point on the chest, or even to the neck; the latter variation is called a guillotine press (also known as a redneck press or neck press) and emphasizes the upper pectorals.
- Altered stability: The bench press can be performed with various modifications to make the lifter or the weight less stable. Examples include lifting on a Swiss ball, using dumbbells instead of a barbell, or lifting with the legs on the bench or in the air. Lifting with the legs on the bench or out in front of the bench held in the air above the ground neutralizes the athlete's ability to arch his back and glutes off of the bench and thereby gain an advantage while lifting. As it forces the glutes to stay anchored on the bench (it also eliminates the ability of the athlete to employ leg drive), this position is more difficult and allows for greater stress of the pectorals.
- Alternating arms: This involves using a pair of dumbbells and lifting and lowering one and then lifting and lowering the other; or lifting one while lowering the other in an alternating sequence.[12]
- Single arm: This involves using a single dumbbell and lifting it with one arm. When both arms are exercised in this unilateral manner, it can help to ensure that the arms perform the same amount of work and any excessive muscle imbalances are reduced. For example, in a standard barbell bench press, the right arm may perform 55% of the work and the left arm 45%. However, if the right or left arm is used singularly, then it can be assured that each arm is performing 100% of the work for that respective lift. This can mean that the strength of the right and left arms develops more evenly.[12] The single-arm bench press can also mean greater levels of core activation.
- Variable resistance: The bench press can be performed with chains or bands which are attached to either end of the barbell. They can be used to strengthen the upper range of motion in the movement and develop explosive power in the bench press.[13] This means that the percentage of 1RM lifted for the stronger phase[a] more closely matches the percentage 1RM for the weaker lower phase e.g., a person can lift 60 kg for one full rep (including the weaker lower phase) but can lift 90 kg for the stronger upper phase. So, by adding resistance they can better meet the respective 1RMs, in percentage terms, for both strength phases. The incorporation of chains and bands can help to develop explosive power in the bench press. An alternative is to combine heavier partial reps with lighter full reps.[14][15]
- Partial rep: A partial rep usually means lowering the bar partially before raising it again i.e., for a half or quarter rep.
- Because this is a stronger ROM, significantly more weight can be lifted. When used in combination with lighter full reps, this can allow a person to better ensure that the percentage of 1RM lifted for the stronger and weaker phases of the movement[a] is more consistent. For example, if 1RM is 100 kg for the lower phase and 150 kg for the upper phase, an 80 kg full ROM press is 80% of someone's 1RM for a full rep and lifting 120 kg for a partial which remains in the stronger phase of the movement is 80% for that phase. Full reps at a 1RM of 100 kg prevents the stronger phase of the lift from being trained at more than about 66% of its respective 1RM of 150 kg. Performing heavier partials can help to increase strength and power and also improve a person's 1RM for a full ROM press.[16]
- A different form of partial rep involves training the lower most difficult part of the movement in order to strengthen it and to avoid it being a ‘sticking point’ that stops the movement of the weight.
- Equipped: An "equipped" bench press is performed with a stiff, supportive shirt that allows greater weights to be used. The materials and cut of the bench shirt, as well as the skill of the lifter and the rules of performance, will determine how much additional weight can be pressed in the shirt as opposed to without it. The contrast between equipped and unequipped (raw) bench press weights is illustrated in the progression of the bench press world records, with the record equipped lift exceeding the unequipped lift by hundreds of pounds.
- With minor injury: People who suffer from shoulder injuries can use a specialized barbell such as the Swiss Bar or Football Bar that allows them to hold the bar in a neutral grip, reducing the amount of internal rotation on the shoulder. It also engages the shoulder more, increasing power in upper body movements. Another variation is the hex press in which two dumbbells are squeezed against each other, with the palms facing inwards. This puts the strain of the exercise on the triceps and inner chest rather than the shoulders. The Floor Press is another variation that puts less strain on the lifter's shoulders, due to the shorter range of motion.
## Possible injuries
Performing the bench press can contribute to multiple types of injuries:
- Torn ligaments / tendons in shoulders
- Injuries to the trapezius muscle
- Elbow / wrist strains
- Cracked or broken ribs, usually the result of bouncing the bar off of the chest to add momentum to the lift, or a loss of strength causing the bar to fall onto the chest.
- Distal clavicular osteolysis: bone spur or erosion at the end of the clavicle. Athletes suffering from this condition should avoid doing bench presses.[17]
- Torn or damaged rotator cuff
- Pectoral muscle tear
- Cervical discopathy or, in extreme cases, spinal cord injury. While the mechanism is not clear, lifting the neck or arching the back and leaning on the lower neck while pressing the weight could stress the area.[18][better source needed]
- Death by asphyxiation by being trapped under the bar (several each year).[19]
- Subclavian vein thrombosis [20]
Many of these possible injuries can be avoided by using dumbbells instead of a barbell since dumbbells can be dropped without hitting the chest or neck, while also allowing greater external rotation of the shoulder which can help prevent shoulder injuries. Studies have also shown dumbbell bench press activates the pectorals more, which can lead to increased muscle growth.

Improving performance in powerlifting involves powerlifters implementing specific techniques. These include arching, taking deep breaths, and actively pressing their feet into the floor. These methods engage all body parts during the lift, ensuring proper weight distribution across the back, legs, and the floor. While there is criticism of the back arch, it is the safest and most effective way to bench press. The main debate for the use of the back arch during the bench press in powerlifting is how it shortens ones range of motion, thus making the lift easier to perform at higher weights. This shortened range of motion allows the one performing the bench press to ultimately reduce the amount of energy exerted during the lift leading to more weight being put up.
==History==
The bench press has evolved over the years, from floor, bridge, and belly toss variations to the methods used by bodybuilders and powerlifters today. It became popular from the late 1950s onwards.{{sfnp|McRobert|1998|p=210}} Despite the fact the parallel [[Dip (exercise)|dip]] is safer (the dip does not require spotters or safety bars{{sfnp|McRobert|1998|p=210}}), in the 1950s the bench press overtook the dip in popularity and became the standard chest exercise.{{sfnp|McRobert|1998|p=210}}
At first the strict floor press was the most popular method. In 1899, using a barbell with {{convert|48|cm|in}} discs (plates), [[George Hackenschmidt]] rolled a barbell over his face (which was turned to the side) and performed a strict floor press with {{convert|164|kg|lbs}}. This stood as a record for 18 years until Joe Nordquest broke it by {{convert|1|kg|lbs}} in 1916.
Around this time, new methods started gaining ground. Lifters began to discover that strong glutes could help them get the bar from the ground to overhead. They would lie on the floor and position the bar over their abdomen, then perform an explosive glute bridge movement, catapulting the bar upwards and catching it at lockout.<ref name="t-nation1">{{cite web|last=Contreras |first=Bret |url=http://www.t-nation.com/free_online_article/most_recent/the_best_damn_bench_press_article_period |title=The Best Damn Bench Press Article Period |publisher=T Nation |date=2011-12-15 |access-date=2014-08-14}}</ref>
Lifting techniques, training, and [[Anabolic steroid|drugs]] have improved over the years and the bench press record lift has grown from {{convert|164|kg|lbs}} to {{convert|355|kg|lbs}} (raw, record held by [[Julius Maddox]]) in approximately 100 years.<ref>{{cite web |title=Powerlifter Will Barotti benches 1,105 pounds for a new world record |url=https://www.muscleandfitness.com/athletes-celebrities/news/powerlifter-will-barotti-benches-1105-pounds-for-a-new-world-record/ |website=muscleandfitness.com|date=6 July 2020 }}</ref>

With the right form, parts of the deltoids will be used to help make the lift, including the anterior deltoids.<ref name=":0" /> Wider hand spacing places a greater emphasis on shoulder flexion and narrower hand spacing utilizes more elbow extension. Because of this, wider hand spacing is associated with training the pectorals and narrower hand spacing is associated with training the triceps. Both close and wide hand spacing train the deltoid area.<ref name=":0" />
In addition to the major phasic (dynamic) muscles, the bench press also uses tonic (stabilizing) muscles, including the scapular stabilizers ([[serratus anterior]], middle, and inferior [[trapezius]]), humeral head stabilizers ([[rotator cuff muscles]]), and core ([[transverse abdominis]], [[Oblique arytenoid|obliques]], [[multifidus]], [[erector spinae]], [[quadratus lumborum]].)[[File:Bench Press- Almog Dayan.JPG|thumb|A female athlete performing a bench press at the IPA world championship 2007, in the "Bench Only" category]]
==Variations==
{{More citations needed section|date=March 2022}}
Variations of the bench press involve different groups of muscles, or involve the same muscles in different ways:
*'''Inclination'''
**'''Flat bench press''': The flat bench press involves both portions of the pectoralis major muscle but focuses on the lower (sternal) head as well as the anterior [[deltoid muscle]]. The term 'bench press' on its own is assumed to refer to a flat bench press.
**'''Incline bench press''': An incline elevates the shoulders and lowers the pelvis as if reclining in a chair; this variation emphasizes the anterior deltoids and the upper (clavicular) head of the pectoralis major. This variation is called the incline bench press or called an incline press.
**'''Decline bench press''': A decline bench press elevates the pelvis and lowers the head and emphasizes the lower portion of the pectoralis major whilst incorporating shoulders and triceps. This variation is known as the decline bench press or the decline press.
*'''Grip''' [[File:Sequence 01.webm|thumb|A woman explains how to properly perform the dumbbell bench press and the dumbbell incline bench press]]
**'''Reverse grip''': A reverse grip bench press utilizes an underhand (supinated) grip on the bar. A supinated grip externally rotates the [[humerus]], which puts the shoulders in a much more favorable position for the lift, decreasing injury potential without compromising the range of motion. It emphasizes the clavicular head of the pectoralis major more than an incline bench press. On the eccentric phase of the lift, the bar path will create a larger arc and eventually touch a point on the chest that is lower compared to the regular bench press, because the upper arms and elbows are closer to the body and the angle between the humerus and the torso is smaller.
**'''Narrow grip''' ('''close grip'''): A bench press performed with the hands close together. It relies on the triceps to complete the pressing motion.<ref name="t-nation1" /> Called the close grip bench press, this variation is best performed with arms in a near-vertical position to reduce strain placed upon the wrists, elbows, and shoulders. A close grip bench press can also be performed with dumbbells or a barbell with neutral grips.
**'''Wide grip''': A bench press performed with the hands far apart. It shortens the range of motion, lessening the contribution of the triceps.
**'''Suicide grip''' ('''false grip''', '''thumbless grip'''): Instead of the thumb being wrapped underneath the barbell, the thumb is placed next to the index finger where it sits on top of the barbell. Although it has its pros and cons, the suicide grip is sometimes used because it places the wrist in a better position, keeping shoulders safer, and allowing lifters to activate their triceps more.<ref>6 Reasons Not To Use The Suicide Grip For Bench Press: https://powerliftingtechnique.com/suicide-grip-for-bench-press/</ref> This grip is considered unsafe as it presents the risk of the bar rolling out of the lifters hand which in turn may cause injury by the dropped bar<ref>{{cite web | url=https://stronglifts.com/bench-press/#No_Thumbless_Grip | title=How to Bench Press with Proper Form: Definitive Guide | date=7 October 2018 }}</ref>
*'''Arched Back:''' Bench press can be performed with an arched back to engage the lower part of the pectoral muscle. This allows the lifter to lift heavier weights<ref>{{Cite book |last=Delavier |first=Frédéric |url=https://www.worldcat.org/title/ocm61123117 |title=Strength training anatomy |date=2006 |publisher=Human Kinetics |isbn=978-0-7360-6368-5 |edition=2nd |location=Champaign, IL |pages=52 |oclc=ocm61123117}}</ref>
*'''Different lowering targets'''
**A lifter can elect to lower the bar to nipple level, to the [[xiphoid process]], or even further, to the abdomen.
**On the other hand, a lifter may lower the bar to a very high point on the chest, or even to the neck; the latter variation is called a '''guillotine press''' (also known as a '''redneck press''' or '''neck press''') and emphasizes the upper pectorals.
*'''Altered stability''': The bench press can be performed with various modifications to make the lifter or the weight less stable. Examples include lifting on a Swiss ball, using dumbbells instead of a barbell, or lifting with the legs on the bench or in the air. Lifting with the legs on the bench or out in front of the bench held in the air above the ground neutralizes the athlete's ability to arch his back and glutes off of the bench and thereby gain an advantage while lifting. As it forces the glutes to stay anchored on the bench (it also eliminates the ability of the athlete to employ leg drive), this position is more difficult and allows for greater stress of the pectorals.
*'''Alternating arms''': This involves using a pair of dumbbells and lifting and lowering one and then lifting and lowering the other; or lifting one while lowering the other in an alternating sequence.<ref name="Pro Training Secrets">{{cite journal |last1=Williams |first1=Pete |title=Pro Training Secrets |journal=Men's Health |volume=June 2006 |page=134}}</ref>
*'''Single arm''': This involves using a single dumbbell and lifting it with one arm. When both arms are exercised in this [[Unilateral training|unilateral manner]], it can help to ensure that the arms perform the same amount of work and any excessive muscle imbalances are reduced. For example, in a standard barbell bench press, the right arm may perform 55% of the work and the left arm 45%. However, if the right or left arm is used singularly, then it can be assured that each arm is performing 100% of the work for that respective lift. This can mean that the strength of the right and left arms develops more evenly.<ref name="Pro Training Secrets"/> The single-arm bench press can also mean greater levels of core activation.
*'''Variable resistance''': The bench press can be performed with chains or bands which are attached to either end of the barbell. They can be used to strengthen the upper range of motion in the movement and develop explosive power in the bench press.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.lift.net/exercises/how-to-bench-press-with-proper-form/ |title=How to Bench Press like a Pro: A deep look at Bench Press Form |publisher=LIFT |access-date=2014-08-14}}</ref> This means that the percentage of 1RM lifted for the stronger phase{{Efn|name=fn1|A movement may be considered as having any number of strength phases but usually is considered as having two main phases: a stronger and a weaker. When the movement becomes stronger during the exercise, this is called an ''ascending strength curve'' i.e. bench press, squat, deadlift. And when it becomes weaker this is called a ''descending strength curve'' i.e. chin ups, upright row, standing lateral raise. Some exercises involve a different pattern of strong-weak-strong. This is called a ''bell shaped strength curve'' i.e. bicep curls where there can be a sticking point roughly midway.}} more closely matches the percentage 1RM for the weaker lower phase e.g., a person can lift 60 kg for one full rep (including the weaker lower phase) but can lift 90 kg for the stronger upper phase. So, by adding resistance they can better meet the respective 1RMs, in percentage terms, for both strength phases. The incorporation of chains and bands can help to develop explosive power in the bench press. An alternative is to combine heavier partial reps with lighter full reps.<ref>{{cite web |last1=Hutchison |first1=Dan |title=Using variable resistance for the bench press |url=https://www.perform-x.com/using-variable-resistance-bench-press/ |website=Perform-X.com |date=29 June 2017 |access-date=30 March 2021}}</ref><ref>{{cite book |last1=John Jaquish |first1=Henry Alkire |title=Weight lifting is a waste of time |date=2020 |publisher=Lioncrest publishing |pages=33–36}}</ref>
*'''Partial rep''': A partial rep usually means lowering the bar partially before raising it again i.e., for a half or quarter rep.
**Because this is a stronger ROM, significantly more weight can be lifted. When used in combination with lighter full reps, this can allow a person to better ensure that the percentage of 1RM lifted for the stronger and weaker phases of the movement{{Efn|name=fn1|A movement may be considered as having any number of strength phases but usually is considered as having two main phases: a stronger and a weaker. When the movement becomes stronger during the exercise, this is called an ''ascending strength curve'' i.e. bench press, squat, deadlift. And when it becomes weaker this is called a ''descending strength curve'' i.e. chin ups, upright row, standing lateral raise. Some exercises involve a different pattern of strong-weak-strong. This is called a ''bell shaped strength curve'' i.e. bicep curls where there can be a sticking point roughly midway.}} is more consistent. For example, if 1RM is 100 kg for the lower phase and 150 kg for the upper phase, an 80 kg full ROM press is 80% of someone's 1RM for a full rep and lifting 120 kg for a partial which remains in the stronger phase of the movement is 80% for that phase. Full reps at a 1RM of 100 kg prevents the stronger phase of the lift from being trained at more than about 66% of its respective 1RM of 150 kg. Performing heavier partials can help to increase strength and power and also improve a person's 1RM for a full ROM press.<ref>{{cite web |last1=Dickinson |first1=Josh |title=Full And Partial Repetitions For Massive Gains! |url=https://www.bodybuilding.com/content/full-and-partial-repetitions-for-massive-gains.html |website=bodybuilding.com |date=18 April 2005 |access-date=30 March 2021}}</ref>
**A different form of partial rep involves training the lower most difficult part of the movement in order to strengthen it and to avoid it being a ‘sticking point’ that stops the movement of the weight.
*'''Equipped''': An "equipped" bench press is performed with a [[Bench shirt|stiff, supportive shirt]] that allows greater weights to be used. The materials and cut of the bench shirt, as well as the skill of the lifter and the rules of performance, will determine how much additional weight can be pressed in the shirt as opposed to without it. The contrast between equipped and unequipped (raw) bench press weights is illustrated in the [[progression of the bench press world record]]s, with the record equipped lift exceeding the unequipped lift by hundreds of pounds.
*'''With minor injury''': People who suffer from shoulder injuries can use a specialized barbell such as the Swiss Bar or Football Bar that allows them to hold the bar in a neutral grip, reducing the amount of internal rotation on the shoulder. It also engages the shoulder more, increasing power in upper body movements. Another variation is the hex press in which two dumbbells are squeezed against each other, with the palms facing inwards. This puts the strain of the exercise on the triceps and inner chest rather than the shoulders. The Floor Press is another variation that puts less strain on the lifter's shoulders, due to the shorter range of motion.
==Possible injuries==
[[File:Bench press.png|upright=1.5|thumb|A man (lying down) performs a bench press with a [[spotting (weight training)|spotter]] using a thumbless grip.]]
Performing the bench press can contribute to multiple types of injuries:
*Torn [[ligaments]] / [[tendons]] in shoulders
*Injuries to the [[trapezius muscle]]
*[[Elbow]] / [[wrist]] strains
*Cracked or broken [[human rib cage|ribs]], usually the result of bouncing the bar off of the chest to add momentum to the lift, or a loss of strength causing the bar to fall onto the chest.
*[[Bone spur|Distal clavicular osteolysis]]: bone spur or erosion at the end of the clavicle. Athletes suffering from this condition should avoid doing bench presses.<ref>IOC Sport Medicine Manual 2000 available in .PDF form online</ref>
*Torn or damaged [[rotator cuff]]
*Pectoral muscle tear
*Cervical discopathy or, in extreme cases, spinal cord injury. While the mechanism is not clear, lifting the neck or arching the back and leaning on the lower neck while pressing the weight could stress the area.<ref>{{cite web |title=Spinal Cord Injury due to Cervical Disc Herniation Caused by Bench Pressing |url=https://www.hilarispublisher.com/open-access/spinal-cord-injury-due-to-cervical-disc-herniation-caused-by-bench-pressing-2165-7939-3-154.pdf |website=hilarispublisher |publisher=Journal of Spine}}</ref>{{better source needed|Reason=predatory publisher [[OMICS Publishing Group]]|date=February 2022}}

Many of these possible injuries can be avoided by using dumbbells instead of a barbell since dumbbells can be dropped without hitting the chest or neck, while also allowing greater external rotation of the shoulder which can help prevent shoulder injuries. Studies have also shown dumbbell bench press activates the pectorals more, which can lead to increased muscle growth.<ref>{{Cite web|last=Sgobba|first=Christa|date=2017-07-12|title=This Kind Of Bench Press Will Hit Your Pecs the Hardest|url=https://www.menshealth.com/fitness/a19525230/dumbbell-chest-press-pecs-activation/|access-date=2020-12-17|website=Men's Health|language=en-US}}</ref>

# The Vanderbeekers
The Vanderbeekers is a series of seven middle-grade children's novels written and illustrated by Asian American author Karina Yan Glaser. Set primarily in Harlem, the books follow the adventures of a large multiracial family and their friends and neighbors. Although published between 2017 and 2023, reviewers noted that the books evoke older series about large families in urban settings, including Elizabeth Enright's Melendy family books and Sydney Taylor's All-of-a-Kind Family series, as well as Jeanne Birdsall's The Penderwicks and Gertrude Chandler Warner's original Boxcar Children series. By the time of the final book's release in 2023, the Vanderbeekers books had sold more than half a million copies and been translated into 13 languages.
## Background
As a first-generation American child of immigrants, Glaser grew up in a small family without extended family. "I devoured books about big families," she has said, adding that "reading books about big families, especially ones in New York City, always gave me a big thrill." Glaser moved to New York for college and remained there; after she had children, she began writing a blog about being a mother in New York City and was encouraged to continue writing. "As I would walk with my kids and our dog past brownstones in our Harlem neighborhood, I would sometimes think of the cover of one of the All-of-a-Kind Family books, with all the kids spilling out the front door of a brownstone, and that’s when I began thinking about the Vanderbeekers."
Glaser took a writing course and participated in National Novel Writing Month, which she said resulted in the first draft of The Vanderbeekers of 141st Street. Houghton Mifflin Harcourt bought the manuscript and offered Glaser a contract for two standalone books, the latter of which was published in 2022 as A Duet for Home. Prior to publication of The Vanderbeekers of 141st Street, the publisher offered Glaser a contract for a sequel, The Vanderbeekers and the Hidden Garden.
## Books
The books feature the Vanderbeeker family—a biracial family consisting of a mother, father, five children (twins Isa and Jessie, Oliver, Hyacinth and Laney), and a cat, dog and rabbit—along with a large cast of friends and neighbors. The Vanderbeekers live in a brownstone apartment on 141st Street in Harlem where Mr. Vanderbeeker works as a superintendent. The books take place over the course of roughly two years, beginning with Christmas and ending with Christmas.
### The Vanderbeekers of 141st Street(2017)
Shortly before Christmas, the Vanderbeekers' live-in landlord, the reclusive Mr. Beiderman, declines to renew their lease, forcing the Vanderbeeker family to move at the end of the year. The Vanderbeeker children begin a variety of strategies to persuade "the Beiderman," to allow them to stay.
### The Vanderbeekers and the Hidden Garden(2018)
This installment takes place during the summer, six months after the events of the previous book. While Isa is away at camp, the rest of the Vanderbeeker children struggle with the summer heat. After their beloved neighbor Mr. Jeet suffers a stroke, the children plan to transform an abandoned lot on 141st Street into a garden that will welcome him home.
### The Vanderbeekers to the Rescue(2019)
During spring break the following year, the Vanderbeekers prepare for Isa's violin audition, Jessie's science fair project, Oliver's treehouse, Hyacinth's knitting project and Laney's gymnastics practice. When the children accidentally destroy Mrs. Vanderbeeker's baking business, they must race to fix their mistake, against the backdrop of a series of mysterious packages arriving at the door.
### The Vanderbeekers Lost and Found(2020)
During the fall, the Vanderbeekers help Mr. Beiderman train for the New York City Marathon and plan a neighborhood fun run. The plot moves into action when they discover the true identity of the mysterious person living in the community garden.
### The Vanderbeekers Make a Wish(2021)
The following summer, the Vanderbeekers prepare for Mr. Vanderbeeker's surprise 40th birthday party. But after he leaves town to help a good friend, the Vanderbeeker children find surprise guests at the brownstone and learn more than they knew about their paternal grandfather.
### The Vanderbeekers on the Road(2022)
Immediately following the events of the previous book, the Vanderbeekers, Mr. Beiderman, and their friend Orlando set out on a road trip to pick up Mr. Vanderbeeker in the Midwest and surprise him with a birthday trip to the Pacific Coast. The Vanderbeeker family endure breakdowns, make new friends while camping and see America, all while Jessie and Orlando keep a secret about their future plans.
### The Vanderbeekers Ever After(2023)
During the fall after their road trip, amid preparations for the wedding of two dear friends, one of the Vanderbeeker children receives a cancer diagnosis. The family rises to the challenge, befriending patients, staff and parents at the hospital whiles supporting their sick family member.
## Influences
Among works that Glaser has said influenced The Vanderbeekers are Enright's Melendy family books, Taylor's All-of-a-Kind Family series, Eleanor Estes' The Moffats, A Tree Grows in Brooklyn, From the Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler.
## Reception
The Vanderbeekers books have been well-reviewed. In The New York Times Book Review, Jennifer Hubert Swan called the first installment "a warmhearted, multiracial update to the classic big-family novel." She also praised Glaser's decision to "preserve the winsome tone and innocence of the aforementioned classics while updating them with a rich, modern diversity of characters, settings and problems," without resorting to "labeling the cultural or ethnic backgrounds of her characters outright." Instead, Swan writes, "Glaser plants subtle hints in dialogue, descriptions and names that could suggest a number of possibilities. For example, while we learn that the Vanderbeekers are 'a biracial family,' Glaser never explicitly says which races. Instead she sticks to eye color, foot size and hair: 'Isa inherited her mother’s stick-straight black hair, which Isa always wore in a sleek ponytail'; her twin, Jessie, has 'Papa’s wild, untamable hair.' Oliver has 'Mama’s dark eyes' while Hyacinth got 'Papa’s large feet.' This technique allows an array of young readers to come to the text and see themselves, their families and friends."
In 2019, reviewing The Vanderbeekers to the Rescue, Swan described the book as "almost a case study in why these kinds of series are so captivating for young readers: Above all, while the happy ending might be a foregone conclusion, there is great satisfaction in seeing how their favorite characters untangle the knot this time."
The Vanderbeekers of 141st Street was listed as one of The New York Times Book Review's notable children's books for 2017. The Vanderbeekers and the Hidden Garden reached ninth on the New York Times Best Seller list for middle-grade children's books in October 2018.
## Adaptation
In 2018, Amy Poehler's production company optioned The Vanderbeekers of 141st Street for film or television adaptation.

Although published between 2017 and 2023, reviewers noted that the books evoke older series about large families in urban settings, including [[Elizabeth Enright]]'s Melendy family books and [[Sydney Taylor]]'s ''[[All-of-a-Kind Family]]'' series, as well as [[Jeanne Birdsall]]'s ''[[The Penderwicks]]'' and [[Gertrude Chandler Warner]]'s original ''[[The Boxcar Children|Boxcar Children]]'' series.<ref name="NYT-Swan">{{cite news |last1=Swan |first1=Jennifer Hubert |title=A Warmhearted, Multiracial Update to the Classic Big-Family Novel |url=https://www.nytimes.com/2017/10/27/books/review/karina-yan-glaser-vanderbeekers-of-141st-street.html |access-date=10 August 2024 |work=New York Times Book Review |date=October 27, 2017}}</ref><ref name="Citizen-Times">{{cite news |last1=LeClerc |first1=Kirsten |title=Read All About It: Meet 'The Vanderbeekers' |url=https://www.citizen-times.com/story/life/family/2020/02/23/read-all-it-meet-the-vanderbeekers-141st-street/4786516002/ |access-date=10 August 2024 |work=The Citizen-Times |date=February 23, 2020}}</ref><ref name="BookRiot">{{cite news |last1=Moench |first1=Katie |title=15 Delightful Books Like The Vanderbeekers |url=https://bookriot.com/books-like-the-vanderbeekers/ |access-date=10 August 2024 |work=BookRiot |date=September 7, 2021}}</ref> By the time of the final book's release in 2023, the ''Vanderbeekers'' books had sold more than half a million copies and been translated into 13 languages.<ref name="PW-2023">{{cite news |last1=Jones |first1=Iyana |title=Noteworthy Children's Series Ending in 2023 |url=https://www.publishersweekly.com/pw/by-topic/childrens/childrens-book-news/article/93947-noteworthy-children-s-and-ya-series-ending-in-2023.html |access-date=12 August 2024 |work=Publishers Weekly |date=December 14, 2023}}</ref>
==Background==
As a first-generation American child of immigrants, Glaser grew up in a small family without extended family. "I devoured books about big families," she has said, adding that "reading books about big families, especially ones in [[New York City]], always gave me a big thrill." Glaser moved to New York for college and remained there; after she had children, she began writing a blog about being a mother in New York City and was encouraged to continue writing. "As I would walk with my kids and our dog past [[brownstone]]s in our Harlem neighborhood, I would sometimes think of the cover of one of the ''All-of-a-Kind Family'' books, with all the kids spilling out the front door of a brownstone, and that’s when I began thinking about the Vanderbeekers."<ref name="PW-2023-QA">{{cite news |last1=Poray Goddu |first1=Krystyna |title=Q & A with Karina Yan Glaser |url=https://www.publishersweekly.com/pw/by-topic/childrens/childrens-authors/article/93174-q-a-with-karina-yan-glaser.html |access-date=12 August 2024 |work=Publishers Weekly |date=September 14, 2023}}</ref>
Glaser took a writing course and participated in [[National Novel Writing Month]], which she said resulted in the first draft of ''[[The Vanderbeekers of 141st Street]]''. [[Houghton Mifflin Harcourt]] bought the manuscript and offered Glaser a contract for two standalone books, the latter of which was published in 2022 as ''A Duet for Home''. Prior to publication of ''The Vanderbeekers of 141st Street'', the publisher offered Glaser a contract for a sequel, ''The Vanderbeekers and the Hidden Garden''.<ref name="PW-2023-QA" />
==Books==
The books feature the Vanderbeeker family—a biracial family consisting of a mother, father, five children (twins Isa and Jessie, Oliver, Hyacinth and Laney), and a cat, dog and rabbit—along with a large cast of friends and neighbors. The Vanderbeekers live in a brownstone apartment on 141st Street in Harlem where Mr. Vanderbeeker works as a superintendent. The books take place over the course of roughly two years, beginning with Christmas and ending with Christmas.

==Influences==
[[File:Karina Yan Glaser 5190349.jpg|thumb|right|Karina Yan Glaser speaks about ''The Vanderbeekers'' at the 2018 [[Gaithersburg Book Festival]].]]
Among works that Glaser has said influenced ''The Vanderbeekers'' are Enright's Melendy family books, Taylor's ''All-of-a-Kind Family'' series, [[Eleanor Estes]]' ''[[The Moffats]]'', ''[[A Tree Grows in Brooklyn (novel)|A Tree Grows in Brooklyn]]'', ''[[From the Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E.

==Reception==
''The Vanderbeekers'' books have been well-reviewed. In ''The New York Times Book Review'', Jennifer Hubert Swan called the first installment "a warmhearted, multiracial update to the classic big-family novel." She also praised Glaser's decision to "preserve the winsome tone and innocence of the aforementioned classics while updating them with a rich, modern diversity of characters, settings and problems," without resorting to "labeling the cultural or ethnic backgrounds of her characters outright." Instead, Swan writes, "Glaser plants subtle hints in dialogue, descriptions and names that could suggest a number of possibilities. For example, while we learn that the Vanderbeekers are 'a biracial family,' Glaser never explicitly says which races. Instead she sticks to eye color, foot size and hair: 'Isa inherited her mother’s stick-straight black hair, which Isa always wore in a sleek ponytail'; her twin, Jessie, has 'Papa’s wild, untamable hair.' Oliver has 'Mama’s dark eyes' while Hyacinth got 'Papa’s large feet.' This technique allows an array of young readers to come to the text and see themselves, their families and friends."<ref name="NYT-Swan" />
In 2019, reviewing ''The Vanderbeekers to the Rescue'', Swan described the book as "almost a case study in why these kinds of series are so captivating for young readers: Above all, while the happy ending might be a foregone conclusion, there is great satisfaction in seeing how their favorite characters untangle the knot this time."<ref name="NYT-Swan-2019">{{cite news |last1=Swan |first1=Jennifer Hubert |title=Kids Love Multi-Volume Series About Big Families.

# Beaverhead–Deerlodge National Forest
The Beaverhead–Deerlodge National Forest is the largest of the National Forests in Montana, United States. Covering 3.36 million acres (13,600 km2), the forest is broken into nine separate sections and stretches across eight counties in the southwestern area of the state. President Theodore Roosevelt named the two forests in 1908 and they were merged in 1996. Forest headquarters are located in Dillon, Montana. In Roosevelt's original legislation, the Deerlodge National Forest was called the Big Hole Forest Reserve. He created this reserve because the Anaconda Copper Mining Company, based in Butte, Montana, had begun to clearcut the upper Big Hole River watershed. The subsequent erosion, exacerbated by smoke pollution from the Anaconda smelter, was devastating the region. Ranchers and conservationists alike complained to Roosevelt, who made several trips to the area.
(Munday 2001)
The greatest part of the Anaconda-Pintler Wilderness is located in the larger Beaverhead National Forest portion of 2,130,671 acres (8,622.52 km2), which is 64% of the total area of the forest. The rest of this wilderness extends into the neighboring Deerlodge and Bitterroot National Forests. The Beaverhead section includes most of the Pioneer, Gravelly, and Sapphire Ranges. Both the Centennial and Bitterroot mountain ranges are also located here, with the Continental divide found in the Bitterroot range. Lemhi Pass, at an elevation 7,323 feet (2,232 m) above sea level, is a rounded saddle in the Beaverhead Mountains of the Bitterroot Range, along the Continental Divide, between Montana and Idaho. Here, in 1805, the Lewis and Clark Expedition first saw the headwaters of the Columbia River, which flow to the Pacific Ocean, and crossed what was then the western boundary of the United States. Lemhi Pass was the point at which the members of the expedition realized that there was not a waterway that would lead from east to west across the continent. Lemhi Pass was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1960. The Lee Metcalf Wilderness, in the Madison mountain range, is a part of what is known as the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem. However, most of the Lee Metcalf lies in neighboring Gallatin National Forest. The Beaverhead section lies, in descending order of land area, in parts of Beaverhead, Madison, Deer Lodge, and Silver Bow counties. There are local ranger district offices located in Dillon, Ennis, Wisdom, and Wise River.
The smaller Deerlodge National Forest portion of 1,227,155 acres (4,966.12 km2), at 37% of the total area of the forest, encompasses much of the Tobacco Root Mountains and Flint Creek Range and parts of the Elkhorn Mountains; it straddles the Continental Divide in the Boulder and Highland Mountains. A number of ghost towns serve as reminders of the extensive mining history of the region. The Deerlodge portion of the forest, located northwest of the Beaverhead portion, lies in sections of Granite, Jefferson, Silver Bow, Deer Lodge, Powell, and Madison counties. There are local ranger district offices located in Butte, Philipsburg, and Whitehall.
Ponderosa pine, and various species of fir, spruce and juniper are the dominant tree species. Almost a third of the forest lands have no forest at all, and are instead rangeland with sagebrush, grass and the occasional cactus. The forest is also home to grizzly bear, cougar, Canadian lynx, bald eagle, bull trout, Arctic grayling, and gray wolf, the latter being a migrant from northern Montana and the Yellowstone wolf reintroduction program in Wyoming. Elk, mule deer, moose, bighorn sheep, pronghorn, coyote, and black bear are more commonly seen.
The highest mountains in the forest top out at over 11,000 feet (3,400 m). The Continental Divide National Scenic Trail and the Nez Perce National Historical Trail both pass through sections of the forest. In total, there are over 1,500 miles (2,400 km) of hiking trails, 50 campgrounds, dozens of lake and river boating access points and even 250 miles (400 km) of groomed snowmobile trails.
Forest Service offices administering the National Forest are in Butte, Dillon (which is the headquarters location), Philipsburg, Deer Lodge, Whitehall, Boulder, Ennis, Sheridan, Wise River, Wisdom, and Lima. Interstate 15 and Interstate 90, Montana Highway 43 and Montana Highway 278, and the Pioneer Mountains Scenic Byway all provide access to forest service roads, trailheads and local communities near the forest.

# Matt Biondi
Matthew Nicholas Biondi (born October 8, 1965) is an American former competitive swimmer and water polo player. As a swimmer, he is an eleven-time Olympic medalist, and former world record-holder in five events. Biondi competed in the Summer Olympic Games in 1984, 1988 and 1992, winning a total of eleven medals (eight gold, two silver and one bronze). During his career, he set three individual world records in the 50-meter freestyle and four in the 100-meter freestyle.
At the 1988 Olympic Games in Seoul, Biondi won five gold medals, setting world records in the 50-meter freestyle and three relay events.
Biondi is a member of the International Swimming Hall of Fame and the United States Olympic Hall of Fame.
## Early life and athletics
Biondi started his aquatics career as a swimmer and water polo player in his hometown of Moraga, California. As he moved into his teens, his incredible abilities as a sprint swimmer began to emerge. Though he did not start swimming year-round until he started at Campolindo High School, by his senior year in 1983 Biondi was the top prep sprinter in America with a national high school record of 20.40 seconds in the 50-yard freestyle.
## College and international career
### 1983–84 freshman year
Biondi accepted a scholarship to attend the University of California, Berkeley, to swim under Head Coach Nort Thornton and play water polo for coach Pete Cutino, and enrolled in fall of 1983. In his first year, he played on Berkeley's NCAA championship water polo team, and made the consolation finals at the 1984 NCAA Swimming Championships, finishing in ninth place in the 50-yard freestyle and 7th place in both the 100 and 200-yard freestyle events (until 1985 only the top six swimmers advanced to the championship finals) along with a fourth-place finish as part of the 400-yard freestyle relay and a second place in the 800 free relay.
### 1984 Olympics
In the summer of 1984, Biondi surprised the swimming community by qualifying for a spot on the United States 4×100-meter freestyle relay at the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics with his fourth-place finish in the 100-meter freestyle at the Olympic Trials held in Indianapolis. He also finished 18th in the preliminaries of the 200-meter freestyle, failing to advance to the finals. At the Los Angeles Olympics, Biondi swam the third leg of the relay, entering the water in second place just barely behind the team from Australia. Thanks to his 49.67 second split time, the U.S. had taken a four-tenths of a second lead by the time that Biondi turned over the race to anchor swimmer Rowdy Gaines. The U.S. won the gold medal in Olympic and World Record time.
### Post-Olympics NCAA swimming and water polo
In 1985, fresh off of his 1984 Olympics success, Biondi won the 100 and 200-yard freestyle events at the NCAA Championships, setting NCAA and American Records in each event, and contributed relay legs on Cal's victorious 400 and 800-yard freestyle relays, with the 400 free relay team also setting NCAA and American records. He finished second to Tom Jager of UCLA in the 50-yard freestyle and was part of Cal's second place 400-yard medley relay team. Thanks in large part to Biondi's efforts, the Cal team finished fourth overall in the team standings.
The next season, 1986, Biondi swept the sprint freestyles, repeating his 1985 victories in the 100 and 200, and adding a win in the 50 with new NCAA and American records in the event. Cal once again finished first in the 400 and 800 free relays with Biondi anchoring both, but once again fell short in the 400 medley relay finishing third. By virtue of his three individual victories, Biondi tied with Stanford's Pablo Morales for high-point scorer in the meet in which Cal finished runner-up to Stanford for the team title.
In his final collegiate season, 1987, Biondi repeated as winner in the 50, 100, and 200-yard freestyle events, breaking his own NCAA and American records in all three. Having broken the 50 free record in both his preliminary heat and again in the final, he became the first swimmer to break four individual NCAA and American records in the same meet. Once again Cal repeated as champions in the 400 and 800 freestyle relays, yet again they finished third in the 400 medley relay, and for the second straight year Biondi shared the high-point individual title with Morales. The Bears finished fifth in the team standings. For his career, Biondi won eight individual NCAA titles and swam on six winning relays. He broke individual NCAA and American records seven times, and was named the NCAA Swimmer of the Year in 1985, 1986, and 1987.
In his other sport, Biondi was named to an All-American College Water Polo team four times: a third-team selection in 1983, 1985, and 1987, and a second-team selection in 1984. Biondi's Cal Water Polo teams won NCAA Championships in 1983, 1984, and 1987, and Biondi was voted the team's most valuable player in 1985.
### International swimming, 1985–88
Biondi set the first of his twelve individual swimming world records in 1985. He was the first man to swim the 100-meter freestyle faster than 49 seconds, and by 1988 he owned the ten fastest times swum in that event and held the world record for nearly nine years. He won a total 24 U.S. Championships in the 50, 100, and 200-meter freestyle events, as well as the 100 butterfly. In two World Championships (1986 and 1991), Biondi won 11 medals including six gold. During his career, he was a finalist for the James E. Sullivan Award, the UPI Sportsman of the Year, the U.S. Olympic Committee Sportsman of the Year, and selected twice as the Swimming World magazine Male Swimmer of the World, in 1986 and 1988.
At the National Championships on August 6, 1985, Biondi set the world record in the 100-meter freestyle twice in a single day, swimming a 49.24 in the prelims and a 48.95 in the finals. On the following day, he won the 200-meter freestyle with an American record time of 1:47.89.
Later that month at the 1985 Pan Pacific Swimming Championships in Tokyo, Biondi won the 50-meter and 100-meter freestyle, and finished second to teammates Mike Heath and Pablo Morales, respectively, in the 200-meter freestyle and 100-meter butterfly. He won three additional gold medals as a member of all three winning American relay teams. The 4×100-meter free relay team of Scott McCadam, Mike Heath, Paul Wallace, and Biondi set a world record of 3:17.08, and the 4×100-meter medley relay team of Rick Carey, John Moffet, Pablo Morales, and Biondi set a world record of 3:38.28.
Biondi improved his world record in the 100-meter freestyle to 48.74 in June 1986 at the World Championship Trials.
At the 1986 World Aquatics Championships in Madrid, Biondi won seven medals: three gold, one silver, and three bronze. He won gold in the 100-meter freestyle with a time of 48.94, breaking the 49-second barrier for the third time. Individually, he also won a silver medal in the 100-meter butterfly, and bronze medals in the 50-meter and 200-meter freestyle. He won two additional gold medals as a member of the 4×100-meter freestyle and 4×100-meter medley relays, and a third bronze medal as a member of the 4×200-meter freestyle relay.
Returning to the US National Team for the fourth consecutive year, Biondi won four gold medals at the 1987 Pan Pacific Swimming Championships in Brisbane, Australia, in the 100-meter freestyle and as a member of all three winning American relay teams. In addition, he won silver in the 50-meter freestyle and bronze in the 100-meter butterfly.
At the 1988 Olympic Trials, Biondi qualified to compete in seven events: the three relays, and individually in the 50-, 100-, and 200-meter freestyle and the 100-meter butterfly. He set the world record in the 100-meter freestyle for the fourth time (48.42), and broke his own American record in the 200-meter freestyle (1:47.72).
### 1988 Olympics
Biondi won five gold, one silver, and one bronze medal at the 1988 Seoul Olympics, setting four world records and an Olympic record.
In his first event, the 200-meter freestyle, Biondi faced reigning Olympic Champion, World Champion, and world record-holder Michael Gross. Biondi swam a good race, with a time of 1:47.99, but finished with a bronze medal behind Australian Duncan Armstrong, who won gold with a new world record, and Anders Holmertz of Sweden, who earned the silver.
Biondi's finished second in his next event, the 100-meter butterfly, by the narrowest possible margin. In the finals, he was caught between strokes as he approached the finishing wall. He chose to glide rather than take another stroke, and was edged out by Anthony Nesty of Suriname by just one one-hundredth (0.01) of a second. Biondi's silver medal time of 53.01 was a personal best.
Later that day, Biondi anchored the 4×200-meter freestyle relay, joined by teammates Troy Dalbey, Matt Cetlinski, and Doug Gjertsen. The American team won gold, setting a world record of 7:12.51. Biondi entered the water with the U.S. team in second place .82 seconds behind the East German team, but passed them by swimming the fastest split time of the race with a 1:46.44, which at the time was also the fastest ever 200 freestyle relay split. This started Biondi's remarkable streak of five gold medals in five days of Olympic swimming, each a world or Olympic record.
In the 100-meter freestyle, Biondi won his first individual Olympic gold, setting a new Olympic record of 48.63. This was the second-fastest 100-meter freestyle of all time, eclipsed only by Biondi's effort at the Olympic trials the prior month. Teammate Chris Jacobs won silver, delivering the first one-two finish for the American swim team at the 1988 Olympics.
Next up was the 4×100-meter freestyle relay, in which Biondi was joined by teammates Jacobs, Troy Dalbey, and Tom Jager. The American team won gold with another world record, 3:16.53, anchored by Biondi's blistering split of 47.81.
In his fourth individual event, Biondi faced Jager in the 50-meter freestyle. It was the Olympic debut of the event, in which both Biondi and Jager had previously set world records. It was another one-two finish for the Americans, with Biondi winning gold in a world-record time of 22.14, and Jager winning silver.
The Olympic swimming competition concluded with the 4×100-meter medley relay. Biondi swam the butterfly leg, joined by teammates David Berkoff (backstroke), Richard Schroeder (breaststroke), and Chris Jacobs (freestyle). The American men set another world record of 3:36.93 to complete their gold-medal sweep in the relays.
For his accomplishments in 1988, Biondi was named the United Press International Athlete of the Year, the US Olympic Committee Athlete of the Year, and the Swimming World Swimmer of the Year.
### 1992 Olympics
At the 1992 Olympics in Barcelona, Biondi won two more gold medals in relays and a silver in the 50-meter freestyle. Following the 1992 Olympics, Biondi retired, which he attributed to multiple factors including lack of financial assistance.
### World Championships
Biondi competed at the World Championships in 1986 and 1991, winning six gold medals.
In 1986, he won three gold medals, one silver and three bronzes to set a record of seven medals at one World Championship meet. This record has since been matched by Michael Phelps, and passed by Caeleb Dressel with eight medals.
## Personal life
Biondi graduated from the University of California, Berkeley, in 1988 with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Political Economy of Industrialized Societies (PEIS).
Biondi married Kirsten Metzger in her home state of Hawaii in 1995. They have three children: Nathaniel (Nate), born in 1998, who swam for the UC Berkeley men's swimming program from 2018–2021; Lucas, born in 2002; and Makena, born in 2007. They divorced in 2014. Kirsten still resides in Hawaii.
Kirsten Biondi persuaded her husband to continue his education, and he earned his master's degree in education in 2000 at Lewis and Clark College in Portland, Oregon.
In recent years, Biondi has worked as a school teacher and swimming coach in Hawaii. As of 2012, he teaches math and coaches at Sierra Canyon School in the Los Angeles neighborhood of Chatsworth.
Biondi has become active within the masters swimming community, launching an annual masters competition that bears his name. The Matt Biondi Masters Classic was held for the first time on March 23, 2014, in Simi Valley, California. The competition is a one-day, short course yards meet held in conjunction with Biondi's masters club, the Conejo Valley Multisport Masters.
Matt Biondi is NOT related to famous Italian jazz, disco, funk and soul singer Mario Biondi.

Biondi is a member of the [[International Swimming Hall of Fame]] and the [[United States Olympic Hall of Fame]].<ref name="ISHOF"/>
== Early life and athletics ==
Biondi started his aquatics career as a swimmer and [[water polo]] player in his hometown of [[Moraga, California]].<ref name="ISHOF">{{cite web |title=Matt Biondi (USA): 1997 Honor Swimmer |url=http://www.ishof.org/matt-biondi.html |website=ISHOF.org |publisher=[[International Swimming Hall of Fame]] |access-date=November 20, 2016 |archive-date=February 24, 2017 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170224023732/http://ishof.org/matt-biondi.html |url-status=dead }}</ref> As he moved into his teens, his incredible abilities as a sprint swimmer began to emerge. Though he did not start swimming year-round until he started at [[Campolindo High School]], by his senior year in 1983 Biondi was the top prep sprinter in America with a national high school record of 20.40 seconds in the 50-yard freestyle.<ref>Dell, Bill. "Nobody's Better Than Mission or Mercersburg (August 1983),''[[Swimming World]]'', p. 42.</ref>
== College and international career ==
=== 1983–84 freshman year ===
Biondi accepted a scholarship to attend the [[University of California, Berkeley]], to swim under Head Coach [[Nort Thornton]] and play water polo for coach [[Peter J. Cutino|Pete Cutino]], and enrolled in fall of 1983. In his first year, he played on Berkeley's [[National Collegiate Athletic Association|NCAA]] championship water polo team, and made the consolation finals at the 1984 NCAA Swimming Championships, finishing in ninth place in the 50-yard freestyle and 7th place in both the 100 and 200-yard freestyle events (until 1985 only the top six swimmers advanced to the championship finals) along with a fourth-place finish as part of the 400-yard freestyle relay and a second place in the 800 free relay.<ref>"For the Record" (May 1984). ''[[Swimming World]]'', p. 105.</ref><ref name="ISHOF"/>
=== 1984 Olympics ===
In the summer of 1984, Biondi surprised the swimming community by qualifying for a spot on the United States [[Swimming at the 1984 Summer Olympics - Men's 4 x 100 metre freestyle relay|4×100-meter freestyle relay]] at the [[1984 Summer Olympics|1984 Los Angeles Olympics]] with his fourth-place finish in the 100-meter freestyle at the Olympic Trials held in Indianapolis. He also finished 18th in the preliminaries of the 200-meter freestyle, failing to advance to the finals.<ref>"Triumph and Tragedy (July 1984)." ''[[Swimming World]]'', pp, 44-67.</ref> At the Los Angeles Olympics, Biondi swam the third leg of the relay, entering the water in second place just barely behind the team from [[Australia at the 1984 Summer Olympics|Australia]]. Thanks to his 49.67 second split time, the U.S. had taken a four-tenths of a second lead by the time that Biondi turned over the race to anchor swimmer [[Rowdy Gaines]]. The U.S. won the gold medal in Olympic and World Record time.<ref>"Georges, Chris. "Men's 400 Free Relay (September 1984)." ''[[Swimming World]]'', p. 57.</ref><ref name="ISHOF"/>
=== Post-Olympics NCAA swimming and water polo ===
In 1985, fresh off of his 1984 Olympics success, Biondi won the 100 and 200-yard freestyle events at the NCAA Championships, setting NCAA and American Records in each event, and contributed relay legs on Cal's victorious 400 and 800-yard freestyle relays, with the 400 free relay team also setting NCAA and American records. He finished second to [[Tom Jager]] of UCLA in the 50-yard freestyle and was part of Cal's second place 400-yard medley relay team. Thanks in large part to Biondi's efforts, the Cal team finished fourth overall in the team standings.<ref>Muckenfuss, Mark. "The Fastest NCAAs Ever - Biondi Doubt (May 1985)." ''[[Swimming World]]'', pp, 20-9.</ref>
The next season, 1986, Biondi swept the sprint freestyles, repeating his 1985 victories in the 100 and 200, and adding a win in the 50 with new NCAA and American records in the event. Cal once again finished first in the 400 and 800 free relays with Biondi anchoring both, but once again fell short in the 400 medley relay finishing third. By virtue of his three individual victories, Biondi tied with Stanford's [[Pablo Morales]] for high-point scorer in the meet in which Cal finished runner-up to Stanford for the team title.<ref>Crouse, Karen. "United They Stood (May 1986)." ''[[Swimming World]]'', pp, 34-43.</ref>
In his final collegiate season, 1987, Biondi repeated as winner in the 50, 100, and 200-yard freestyle events, breaking his own NCAA and American records in all three. Having broken the 50 free record in both his preliminary heat and again in the final, he became the first swimmer to break four individual NCAA and American records in the same meet. Once again Cal repeated as champions in the 400 and 800 freestyle relays, yet again they finished third in the 400 medley relay, and for the second straight year Biondi shared the high-point individual title with Morales. The Bears finished fifth in the team standings.<ref>Muckenfuss, Mark. "A Year of Records (May 1987)." ''[[Swimming World]]'', pp, 24-39.</ref> For his career, Biondi won eight individual NCAA titles and swam on six winning relays. He broke individual NCAA and American records seven times, and was named the NCAA Swimmer of the Year in 1985, 1986, and 1987.<ref name="CalBears.com"/>
In his other sport, Biondi was named to an All-American College Water Polo team four times: a third-team selection in 1983, 1985, and 1987, and a second-team selection in 1984.<ref name="CWPA">{{cite web |title=Men's Varsity All-America |publisher=College Water Polo Association |url=https://collegiatewaterpolo.org/records/All-America/Men_Varsity_All-America/ |access-date=March 26, 2018}}</ref> Biondi's Cal Water Polo teams won NCAA Championships in 1983, 1984, and 1987, and Biondi was voted the team's most valuable player in 1985.<ref name="CalBears.com">{{cite web |title=2018 Men's Water Polo Record Book |publisher=CalBears.com |url=https://calbears.com/documents/2016/6/1/443134.pdf |access-date=March 26, 2019}}</ref>

Biondi's finished second in his next event, the [[Swimming at the 1988 Summer Olympics - Men's 100 metre butterfly|100-meter butterfly]], by the narrowest possible margin.

He chose to glide rather than take another stroke, and was edged out by [[Anthony Nesty]] of [[Suriname]] by just one one-hundredth (0.01) of a second.<ref name="ISHOF"/> Biondi's silver medal time of 53.01 was a personal best.<ref name=fina1988/>
Later that day, Biondi anchored the [[Swimming at the 1988 Summer Olympics - Men's 4 x 200 metre freestyle relay|4×200-meter freestyle relay]], joined by teammates [[Troy Dalbey]], [[Matt Cetlinski]], and [[Doug Gjertsen]].

In the [[Swimming at the 1988 Summer Olympics - Men's 100 metre freestyle|100-meter freestyle]], Biondi won his first individual Olympic gold, setting a new Olympic record of 48.63. This was the second-fastest 100-meter freestyle of all time, eclipsed only by Biondi's effort at the Olympic trials the prior month. Teammate [[Chris Jacobs (swimmer)|Chris Jacobs]] won silver, delivering the first one-two finish for the American swim team at the 1988 Olympics.<ref name=fina1988/>
Next up was the [[Swimming at the 1988 Summer Olympics - Men's 4 x 100 metre freestyle relay|4×100-meter freestyle relay]], in which Biondi was joined by teammates Jacobs, Troy Dalbey, and [[Tom Jager]]. The American team won gold with another world record, 3:16.53, anchored by Biondi's blistering split of 47.81.<ref name=fina1988/>
In his fourth individual event, Biondi faced Jager in the [[Swimming at the 1988 Summer Olympics - Men's 50 metre freestyle|50-meter freestyle]]. It was the Olympic debut of the event, in which both Biondi and Jager had previously set world records.<ref name=recordprogressions/> It was another one-two finish for the Americans, with Biondi winning gold in a world-record time of 22.14, and Jager winning silver.<ref name=fina1988/>

=== 1992 Olympics ===
At the 1992 Olympics in Barcelona, Biondi won two more gold medals in relays and a silver in the 50-meter freestyle. Following the 1992 Olympics, Biondi retired, which he attributed to multiple factors including lack of financial assistance.<ref>{{cite news |title=#30 Most Swimfluential: Matt Biondi |url=https://www.swimmingworldmagazine.com/news/30mostswimfluential-matt-biondi/ |publisher=[[Swimming World Magazine]] |date=July 28, 2015 |access-date=August 3, 2016}}</ref>

# West Beirut (film)
West Beirut (French: West Beyrouth (À l'abri les enfants); Arabic: بيروت الغربية (Bayrut El Gharbiyyeh)) is a 1998 Lebanese war comedy-drama film about the Lebanese Civil War, written and directed by Ziad Doueiri. The film was selected as the Lebanese entry for the Best Foreign Language Film at the 71st Academy Awards, but was not accepted as a nominee.
## Plot
In April 1975, a young Lebanese boy named Tarek witnesses a massacre of Palestinians by the Phalangists. Shortly thereafter, the civil war breaks out; Beirut is partitioned along a line separating the Muslim-Christian mixed West Beirut from the quasi-Christian East Beirut. After the line was created, Tarek is now considered to live in West Beirut, as he is Muslim himself and is in high school, making Super 8 movies with his friend, Omar. At first the war is a lark, Tarek’s school, situated in East Beirut, has closed and is no longer accessible to West Beirut residents, getting from West to East is nearly impossible. His mother wants to leave the country; but his father refuses. Tarek spends time with May, an orphaned Christian girl living in his building. By accident, Tarek goes to an infamous brothel in the war-torn Zeytouni Quarter, meeting its legendary madam, Oum Walid. He then takes Omar and May there. Family tensions rise. Later on and as he comes of age, the war moves inexorably from adventure to a nationwide tragedy. A compilation of films and images from the war plays, showing Yasser Arafat, the Israeli invasion, Hafez al-Assad, and the American intervention. The film ends with Tarek breaking down crying while listening to his father play the oud, and remembering the good times he had before the war.
## Cast

## Critical reception
The film has received critical acclaim since its release.
Rotten Tomatoes gives a score of 94% based on 16 reviews.
Critic Owen Gleiberman of Entertainment Weekly wrote a glowing review of the film stating "The film’s most resonant pleasure is the thrill Doueiri takes in ripping the veil off of contemporary Arab life... ”West Beirut” does meander a bit, yet it has a fractious, clear-eyed fusion of comedy, innocence, romance, and sudden danger."
## Awards

# Ghari (story)
Ghari (Bengali: ঘড়ি) (transl. The Clock) is a work of science fiction written in Bengali by the novelist Premendra Mitra. This story was first published in Chhayapoth (Bengali: ছায়াপথ), the Puja annual of Sarat Sahityo Bhaban, Kolkata, West Bengal, India, in 1948. It was the third story in GhanaDa series portraying Ghanashyam Das alias GhanaDa, the fictional character created by Premendra Mitra, and the protagonist of the GhanaDa series of science-fiction novels.
## Characterization
The character of Ghanashyam Das alias Ghanada was outlined as a bachelor, dark complexioned male with tall, boney and skeletal structure, having age “anywhere between thirty five to fifty five”, as described by the author himself in Mosha, the first story of the Ghanada series. He stayed in the third floor attic of a shared apartment (মেস বাড়ি) at no. 72, Banamali Naskar Lane, Calcutta, West Bengal, India, along with other boarders, who called him Ghana-da, while the term “da” is a suffix added to the name of an elder male in Bengal to convey reverence and affection. Though he was rarely found engaged in any activity or work other than telling fantastic tales to the boarders of the apartment, his stories engaged him with most of the major events happened in the world for last two hundred years and there was no place on earth which he did not visit.
গত দুশো বছর ধরে পৃথিবীর হেন জায়গা নেই যেখানে তিনি যাননি, হেন ঘটনা ঘটেনি যার সঙ্গে তাঁর কোনও যোগ নেই
Premendra Mitra, the creator, described Ghana~da in an interview by A K Ganguly published in SPAN in 1974, as under:
Ghana~da is a teller of tall tales, but the tales always have a scientific basis. I try to keep them as factually correct and as authentic as possible.
## Plot
It was a day of Derby, ie, there was a scheduled football (soccer) match between two big clubs of West Bengal, East Bengal and Mohan Bagan. The four close friends, Shibu, Gaur, Shishir and Sudhir, the author, who were boarders of the shared apartment at no. 72 Banamali Naskar Lane, were getting prepared to leave for the football stadium, keeping a keen watch on the time. Sudhir gave his clock to Gaur and said, “Keep it with yourself. You won't need asking the time repeatedly then.” Here entered GhanaDa, with a warning that clocks should not be accepted without a proper check. It could be disastrous. Getting inquisitive Shibu mentioned that GhanaDa was never seen having a clock. GhanaDa replied, “No, I do not have a clock, but once I received some.” “Received? How many, GhanaDa?” “As far as I remember”, GhanaDa replied indifferently, “Two lakh fifty three thousand three hundred and one only.”
শিবু তা সত্বেও জিজ্ঞাসা করেছে, "সে-সব ঘড়ি গেল কোথায় ঘনাদা? কোথায় রেখেছেন মনে নেই বুঝি?"
"না, মনে থাকবে না কেন, খুব মনে আছে I সেগুলো রেখেছিলাম ১২৫ ডিগ্রী দ্রাঘিমা যেখানে ৩৫ ডিগ্রী অক্ষ্যাংশকে কেটে বেরিয়ে গেছে ঠিক সেইখানেই, তবে সেগুলো এখন অচল"
GhanaDa reminded of a massive Tsunami and cyclone occurred in the South Pacific Ocean on 17 September 1937. GhanaDa's story preceded the event by two months. At that time he was visiting an area covering from Hawaii to Fiji through Samoa, carrying out an import-export business, which was a cover hiding his actual identity. All of a sudden he received two telegrams from Neville and Frank on the same day, requesting him to undertake a secret service mission and to meet the sender at the earliest. They were understood to be Neville Chamberlain, Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, and Franklin Roosevelt, President of the United States. “Were they your friends, GhanaDa?”, asked Shibu.
যেন অত্যন্ত সামান্য ব্যাপার, এইভাবে কথাটা হাত নেড়ে উড়িয়ে দিয়ে ঘনাদা বলেছেন, "যাক সে সব কথা"
The author, Premendra Mitra, addressed the issue of international terrorism in this story. Some agencies in Asia distributed cheap clock attached with explosives with timer which were distributed throughout Europe and the United States, most of which were programmed to explode at a particular time and date destroying major infrastructure of these countries. With timely intervention of GhanaDa a major impending world disaster was averted. However, the crucial Eastbengal club versus Mohanbagan club football match was eventually missed by all.

# Brodnici
The Brodnici (Russian: Бродники, Ukrainian: Бродники) were a tribe of disputed origin.
## Etymology
In some opinions, the name, as used by foreign chronicles, means a person in charge of a ford (water crossing) in Slavic language (cf. Slavic brodŭ). The probable reason for the name is that the territory of the Brodniks constituted the link between the mountain passes in the Carpathians and the mouths of the Danube, having a major economical importance, assuring the access to the Genovese colonies. According to other opinions, their name is related to Slavic бродить ("to wander"), probably referring to the nomadic way of life of this population. Other opinions claim that the name came from the river Prut or from its purportedly old name Brutus.
## Territory
The territory of Brodnici consisted of the southwestern part of today's Republic of Moldova, the southern part of today's Vrancea and Galați counties of Romania, the southern part of Budjak in Ukraine and probably the coastline between the Dniester and the Dnieper.
## Ethnicity
Attempts have been made to associate them to better known neighbouring populations, different authors classifying them as Slavs or Iranian, or perhaps mixed ethnic stock: Romanian-Slavic or Turko-Slavic.
Some authors have identified them with the "Bordinians" mentioned by Byzantine chronicler Niketas Choniates as a branch of "Tauroscythians", a term apparently applying to the Rus people in order to distinguish them from the Cumans/Polovtsians and from Vlachs.
## Documentary evidence
In 1216, they were in the service of the knyaz of Suzdal.
In 1222, the Hungarian king Andrew II gave the Burzenland to the Teutonic Knights, delimiting it by the land of the Brodnici. A Papal bull of Pope Honorius III confirmed the charter in the same year; however, in the copy approved by the Vatican, "Brodnicorum" was replaced by "Blacorum" (i.e., "Vlachs" in Latin). While some historians believe that this shows that the terms were equivalent, others claim that this was just an error. The latter base their claim on the fact that the two terms were used together in several Hungarian documents, very unusual if referring to the same population.
In 1238, King Béla IV of Hungary presented himself as: king of "...Ruthenorum, Cumanorum, Brodnicorum...".
The Novgorod First Chronicle says that in 1223 the Brodnici took part in the Battle of Kalka on the side of Mongols ("Tatars").
When speaking about Brodniks, the Chronicle mentions voivode Ploskynya (the name of the voivode is sometimes rendered as Ploscânea in Romanian historiography) who deceived knyaz Mstislav Romanovich and delivered him to "Tatars". Some researchers conclude that Ploskynya was the Brodnik commander. According to some researchers, the Chronicle should be interpreted as "And there Brodniks were with Tatars, and their Voivod Ploskynya [...]". However other disagree, considering that the source should be translated as "And there Brodniks were with Tatars, and Voivod Ploskynya, [...]". After this date, they disappeared from Rus' sources.
In August 1227, Pope Gregory IX wrote a letter to the bishop of Esztergom instructing him to convert to Christianity "in Cumania et Bordinia terra illis vicina".
A November 11, 1250 letter of King Béla IV of Hungary to Pope Innocent IV says that Tatars imposed tribute onto the countries neighboring with his kingdom: "que ex parte Orientis cum regno nostro conterminantur, sicut Ruscia, Cumania, Brodnici, Bulgaria".

# Libelle of Englyshe Polycye
The Libelle of Englyshe Polycye (or Libel of English Policy) is a fifteenth-century poem written in English. The work exists in two redactions: the first was composed after the siege of Calais in 1436 but before the end of 1438, and a second edition of the work before June 1441. This second edition was probably revised again. Nineteen manuscripts contain the Libelle, which consists of about 1,100 lines in rhyming couplets, with a proem in rhyme-royal and a stanzaic envoi that differs between the poem's two editions.
## Overview
The Libelle combines mercantilism with a jingoistic approach to England's neighbours. It recommends tight control of the British Sea and the Channel in particular to ensure prosperity and tranquility. Given England's waning fortunes in the Hundred Years War following Burgundy's alliance with France after the Treaty of Arras, the Libelle advocates a defence of the wool staple at Calais at any cost, besides "keeping" Wales and Ireland. This staunchly colonial position is complemented by a long list of European territories and countries with an inventory of their commodities. Finally, the poem complains about widespread piracy, the devaluation of English currency, and closes with a meditation on the value of peace.
## Authorship
In 1926, George Warner attributed the poem to Adam Moleyns, but this theory was partly based on Warner's mistaken identification of Moleyns as a member of the family's Lancashire branch. Dismantled by G.A. Holmes in 1961, the theory of Moleyns's authorship has since been abandoned. John Lydgate has also been proposed as the poem's author, but this theory has been rejected by Frank Taylor. William Lyndwood, Keeper of the Privy Seal from 1432 to 1443 and the son of a wool merchant, has also been associated with the poem's production. In 2019, Sebastian Sobecki identified the author as Richard Caudray, Moleyn's immediate predecessor as clerk of the council who stepped down from this role in 1435 and was therefore best placed to compose this poem. Caudray's composition of the Book of the Council, his political views, and a further evidence points to his role behind the poem.
## Reception
Although the poem did not alter foreign policy at the time, it became influential during the formulation of English mercantilism in subsequent centuries. The Paston family appears to have possessed a copy of the work in the fifteenth century. The Libelle was first printed by Hakluyt in the second edition of his Principall Navigations (1598-1600). Another prominent sixteenth-century owner was Elizabeth I's Lord High Treasurer, William Cecil (Lord Burghley). John Selden used the work to mount his case for closed seas in his Mare clausum (1635) and Samuel Pepys, clerk of the acts at the Navy Board, owned a copy, as did the influential seventeenth-century barrister Matthew Hale.
## Critical approaches
Interpretation has focussed on the mercantile aspects of the poem. Carol Meale proposes that the poem's "composition was encouraged by mercantile patronage", whereas John Scattergood suggests that the poem's bullishly colonialist and protectionist outlook offers “a redefinition of the nation” by reference to the “specific sectional interest” of merchants. Sebastian Sobecki draws attention to the use of legal forms in the poem and its interest in documentary authenticity, placing the work in a bureaucratic government context. In his identification of Richard Caudray as the poem's author, Sobecki links the poem's production to Caudray's departure from the council in 1435 and appointment as chief secretary to John Holland, high admiral of England, Ireland, and Aquitaine, and later duke of Exeter.

{{italic title}}
The '''''Libelle of Englyshe Polycye''''' (or ''Libel of English Policy'') is a fifteenth-century poem written in English. The work exists in two redactions: the first was composed after the [[Siege of Calais (1436)|siege of Calais]] in 1436 but before the end of 1438, and a second edition of the work before June 1441. This second edition was probably revised again.<ref>Frank Taylor has suggested a third edition ("Some Manuscripts of ''The Libelle of Englyshe Polycye''").</ref> Nineteen manuscripts contain the ''Libelle'', which consists of about 1,100 lines in rhyming couplets, with a proem in [[Rhyme royal|rhyme-royal]] and a stanzaic envoi that differs between the poem's two editions.<ref>{{Cite journal|last=Sobecki|first=Sebastian|date=2010|title=Bureaucratic Verse: William Lyndwood, the Privy Seal, and the Form of The Libelle of Englyshe Polycye|url=https://www.brepolsonline.net/doi/10.1484/J.NML.1.102188|journal=New Medieval Literatures|language=en|volume=12|pages=251–288|doi=10.1484/J.NML.1.102188|issn=1465-3737|url-access=subscription}}</ref>
== Overview ==
The ''Libelle'' combines [[mercantilism]] with a [[jingoistic]] approach to England's neighbours. It recommends tight control of the British Sea and the [[English Channel|Channel]] in particular to ensure prosperity and tranquility. Given England's waning fortunes in the [[Hundred Years War]] following Burgundy's alliance with France after the [[Treaty of Arras (1435)|Treaty of Arras]], the ''Libelle'' advocates a defence of the wool [[The Staple|staple]] at Calais at any cost, besides "keeping" [[Wales]] and [[Ireland]]. This staunchly colonial position is complemented by a long list of European territories and countries with an inventory of their commodities. Finally, the poem complains about widespread [[piracy]], the devaluation of English currency, and closes with a meditation on the value of peace.<ref name="SobeckiBureaucratic">Sobecki, “Bureaucratic Verse", 254.</ref>
== Authorship ==
In 1926, George Warner attributed the poem to [[Adam Moleyns]],<ref>Warner, ''The Libelle of Englyshe Polycye'', xxxix-xlvi. Warner first attributed the poem to Moleyns in his review of Hertzberg’s 1878 edition which appeared in ''The Academy'', 14 (1878), 491-92.</ref> but this theory was partly based on Warner's mistaken identification of Moleyns as a member of the family's Lancashire branch. Dismantled by G.A. Holmes in 1961, the theory of Moleyns's authorship has since been abandoned.<ref>Holmes, "''The Libel of English Policy''", 211-12.</ref> [[John Lydgate]] has also been proposed as the poem's author, but this theory has been rejected by Frank Taylor.<ref>Taylor, "Some Manuscripts", 414–18.</ref> [[William Lyndwood]], Keeper of the Privy Seal from 1432 to 1443 and the son of a wool merchant, has also been associated with the poem's production.<ref>Sobecki, “Bureaucratic Verse".</ref> In 2019, Sebastian Sobecki identified the author as Richard Caudray, Moleyn's immediate predecessor as clerk of the council who stepped down from this role in 1435 and was therefore best placed to compose this poem.<ref>{{Cite book|last=Sobecki|first=Sebastian|url=https://oxford.universitypressscholarship.com/view/10.1093/oso/9780198790778.001.0001/oso-9780198790778|title=Last Words: The Public Self and the Social Author in Late Medieval England|date=2019-11-28|publisher=Oxford University Press|isbn=978-0-19-879077-8|edition=1|language=en|doi=10.1093/oso/9780198790778.001.0001}}</ref><ref>Sobecki, ''Last Words'', 101-26.</ref> Caudray's composition of the Book of the Council, his political views, and a further evidence points to his role behind the poem.<ref>Sobecki, ''Last Words'', 101-26.</ref>
== Reception ==
Although the poem did not alter foreign policy at the time, it became influential during the formulation of English mercantilism in subsequent centuries. The [[Paston Letters|Paston]] family appears to have possessed a copy of the work in the fifteenth century. The ''Libelle'' was first printed by [[Richard Hakluyt|Hakluyt]] in the second edition of his ''Principall Navigations'' (1598-1600). Another prominent sixteenth-century owner was Elizabeth I's Lord High Treasurer, [[William Cecil, 1st Baron Burghley|William Cecil]] (Lord Burghley). [[John Selden]] used the work to mount his case for [[Mare clausum|closed seas]] in his ''Mare clausum'' (1635) and [[Samuel Pepys]], clerk of the acts at the Navy Board, owned a copy, as did the influential seventeenth-century barrister [[Matthew Hale (jurist)|Matthew Hale]].<ref>Breeze, "Sir John Paston, Lydgate, and ''The Libelle of Englyshe Polycye''", Lester, "The Books of a Fifteenth-Century English Gentleman", and Sobecki, “Bureaucratic Verse" 254.</ref>
== Critical approaches ==
Interpretation has focussed on the mercantile aspects of the poem. Carol Meale proposes that the poem's "composition was encouraged by mercantile patronage",<ref>Meale, "The ''Libelle of Englyshe Polycye'' and Mercantile Literary Culture", 216.</ref> whereas John Scattergood suggests that the poem's bullishly colonialist and protectionist outlook offers “a redefinition of the nation” by reference to the “specific sectional interest” of merchants.<ref>Scattergood, "The ''Libelle of Englyshe Polycye'': the Nation and its Place", 33.</ref> Sebastian Sobecki draws attention to the use of legal forms in the poem and its interest in documentary authenticity, placing the work in a bureaucratic government context.<ref>Sobecki, “Bureaucratic Verse", passim.</ref> In his identification of [[Richard Caudray]] as the poem's author, Sobecki links the poem's production to Caudray's departure from the council in 1435 and appointment as chief secretary to [[John_Holland,_2nd_Duke_of_Exeter|John Holland]], high admiral of England, Ireland, and Aquitaine, and later duke of Exeter.<ref>Sobecki, ''Last Words'', 101-26</ref>

# Steenwerck
Steenwerck (French pronunciation: [stɛ̃vɛʁk]; Dutch: Steenwerk) is a commune, in French Flanders, in the Nord department in northern France. It is located about 25 km (16 mi) north of Lille. People from Steenwerck are known as Steenwerckois.
It is home to Steenwerck's 100 km à pied race event, which mainly features a 100 km (62 mi) marathon, although most local residents prefer to merely walk one lap (roughly 22 kilometres (14 mi)).
Steenwerck also has its own festival giant, as is the tradition in the Nord Department, which is named Totor and is one of the tallest, measuring 5.70 m (18.7 ft).
Other places of interest include the Museum of Rural Life as well as three Commonwealth war cemeteries, and a German war cemetery, of the First World War.

## Heraldry
| Arms of Steenwerck | The arms of Steenwerck are blazoned: Gules, a cross indented argent. (Estourmel and Steenwerck use the same arms.) |
## History
Steenwerck was created by the Franks. The first mention in the 12th century – in 1160 with the invasion by La Becque, from Saint-Jans-Cappel.
Commerce was originally started by the town's founder, la Becque, who built canals with locks right up to Lys. The local weavers were able to deliver their bolts of cloth to the port situated in the town centre from where they would be sent on to the clothes manufacturing town of Armentièrs. The boats used were called martsheps, that is, 'market boats', which were flat bottomed boats. It was by using these boats that local farmers were able to deliver their produce to the neighbouring towns. Boats of this type were used right up until the middle of the 19th century.
## Etymology and evolution of the name
Through the course of history, several variations have appeared: for the period when Middle Dutch was spoken (1150 - 1550) one would see:
- In 1160: Steinwerc
- In 1182: Estenwerck
- In 1260: Stuuinwercke
- In 1331: Steinwerck
- In 1332: Steenwerc
Then in various documents, the name became Stewerc.
In modern Dutch
steen means stone
werk means work, construction
## Transportation
Steenwerck is between Calais and Lille and very close to the Belgian border. It is well-served by road from both cities via the A25 road. Steenwerck is on the Calais Ville section of the Lille-Fontinettes railway to Lille Flanders station.
## Culture and heritage
### Museums
#### The Museum of Rural Life
Built in the central courtyard of an old farm at the start of the 18th century, it shows the activities and trades of a typical Flemish village from 1850 to 1950. With more than 1500 square metres of exhibition space and including more than 6000 objects which bear witness to rural life, the museum allows visitors to rediscover daily life on a farm from that era.
Exhibits show the barn, the granary, the stables, barn, vegetable garden, orchard, pasture, stables, the arboretum. Exhibits to do with the house itself include the kitchen, bedroom, lounge, the bakery, laundry, and the cellar.
Village life is depicted with shops - a tavern, a grocer's, a hatter's, a bakery, a butcher's, a cobbler's, the apothecary, the basket maker, and a hairdresser. There is a school and several businesses including a thatcher, carder, saddler, carpenter, cooper, wheelwright, blacksmith and beekeeper.
#### The Organ Farm
This museum presents a collection of mechanical instruments, mechanical organs, music boxes, phonographs and mechanical pianos. There is also a mechanical violin, of which only a few remain in the world.
### Folk music, dance and celebration
#### Totor: the festival giant
Totor is a processional giant, inaugurated first in 1933, and used on various feast days. His body was made of wood having been made by the local carpenter and cooper; the papier-mâché head was bought in Lille and brought to Steenwerck by bicycle. He measured 4.75 m (15.6 ft) and weighed 60 kg (130 lb). Unfortunately, he disappeared during the Second World War.
Another, much smaller one was made in 1947, but with the public celebration of feast days on the wane, this giant didn't last the humid conditions of storage. Since then, however, two more Totors have been made, one in 1978 and, the one in current use, in 2006. These two are identical to each other in design and measure 5.70 m (18.7 ft), with a weight of 120 kg (260 lb) clothed.
#### Vonchelle: traditional music and dance
In the northern French dialect spoken in Steenwerck "Vonchelle" is a bindweed, a plant which typifies the Flanders volunteer, in that it has very deep roots. Because of this the name has been given to a group which performs traditional dances music at Steenwerck.
The group Vonchelle started in September 1981. Initially it only focused on getting to know and teaching traditional Flemish dances, but a decade later a band was formed and Vonchelle is now involved fully in the Folk circuit.
Their repertoire includes quadrilles, rounds, schottisches, polkas, and waltzes. They also perform from a traditional Flemish heritage, with some borrowings from the Irish repertoire, for example, jigs, circles, and so on, or the centre of France, for example, bourées.
The instruments they use are quite a collection. They have bagpipes, flutes, tin whistles, clarinets, Irish spoons, flutes, violins, guitars, harmonicas, mandolins, derbouhas, bodhrans and accordions.
### Architectural heritage
#### The Church of St John the Baptist
The Church of St John the Baptist is located on the site of a Roman temple, and was mentioned in 1182. It holds a baptismal font from 1587. The church was destroyed during the First World War, but was rebuilt in 1923 to the design of Armand Lemay, an architect from Lille. It consists of a nave and two aisles. In the choir, the stained glass windows of Pierre Turpin, master glass lillois retrace the life of St. John the Baptist. A 1/50 scale model of the church can be seen inside the church which was made in 1951.
### The Church of Our Lady of Sorrows
As early as 1850, the inhabitants of the hamlet of La Croix du Bac, which is included as a part of Steenwerck, but is just over a mile down the road, had designed a project to build a church, despite opposition from the parish priest of Steenwerck, as well as from the town council and local merchants. A plot of land was offered by Mr. Amand Chieux. Some residents of La Croix du Bac gave money, others gave their labour and materials: and, so the Church of Our Lady of Sorrows was built.
When the church was complete, the people asked the diocese for a priest, but the bishop, knowing of local opposition from Steenwerck, refused. So, the people threatened to seek a Protestant pastor, but before a schism could begin the bishop changed his mind and created a new parish, on 26 January 1870, with its own parish priest, Abbé Leleu.
The interior of the church is decorated with 27 devotional statues of popular saints. Because of this, the church is also called "the reliquary of popular devotion".
#### Wayside chapels
As in much of France, wayside shrines and chapels can be seen in and around Steenwerck. Each chapel is a small building with a roof and is designed as a place for people to pray as they pass by. There are 25 chapels scattered around both the town and the hamlet of Steenwerck, "Croix du Bac." The oldest chapel is from the 16th century and the most recent is the chapel of St. Rita, erected in 1979.
#### The Flemish house
The Flemish house was built, in 1890, on the initiative of Pierre Dutrie, in the Gothic Revival style, because of his love of the city of Bruges where he had two friends. He employed the Bruges architect Stephen Timmery, who was known for restoring the monuments of Bruges, to draw the plans and manage the building of the house. All the craftsmen working for the building: bricklayers, stonemasons, carpenters came from this Belgian city.
It was on the death of his mother, in 1982, that her son André Dutrie donated the house to the town for one symbolic franc. It was then made into a museum.
The facade became worn over the years, but it was fully restored in 1994. The interior was completed in late 1999. It has been registered as a historical monument since 1980.
## The Pavillon des Iris
The Pavillon des Iris was successively housing, commerce, industry and convalescent home, it currently houses the office of Tourist information Lys Valley. The pastel-colored facade is adorned with a tree running the entire length of the elevation

==History==
Steenwerck was created by the [[Franks]]. The first mention in the 12th century – in 1160 with the invasion by La Becque, from Saint-Jans-Cappel.
Commerce was originally started by the town's founder, la Becque, who built canals with locks right up to Lys. The local weavers were able to deliver their bolts of cloth to the port situated in the town centre from where they would be sent on to the clothes manufacturing town of Armentièrs. The boats used were called martsheps, that is, 'market boats', which were flat bottomed boats. It was by using these boats that local farmers were able to deliver their produce to the neighbouring towns. Boats of this type were used right up until the middle of the 19th century.
==Etymology and evolution of the name==
Through the course of history, several variations have appeared: for the period when [[Middle Dutch]] was spoken (1150 - 1550) one would see:
* In 1160: Steinwerc
* In 1182: Estenwerck
* In 1260: Stuuinwercke
* In 1331: Steinwerck
* In 1332: Steenwerc
Then in various documents, the name became Stewerc.
In modern [[Dutch language|Dutch]]
'''steen''' means stone
'''werk''' means work, construction
==Transportation==
[[File:Gare de Steenwerck - 7.JPG|thumb|Steenwerck station]]
Steenwerck is between Calais and Lille and very close to the Belgian border. It is well-served by road from both cities via the A25 road. Steenwerck is on the [[Calais Ville]] section of the [[Lille-Fontinettes railway]] to [[Lille Flanders]] station.
==Culture and heritage==
===Museums===
====The Museum of Rural Life====
Built in the central courtyard of an old farm at the start of the 18th century, it shows the activities and trades of a typical Flemish village from 1850 to 1950. With more than 1500 square metres of exhibition space and including more than 6000 objects which bear witness to rural life, the museum allows visitors to rediscover daily life on a farm from that era.
Exhibits show the barn, the granary, the stables, barn, vegetable garden, orchard, pasture, stables, the arboretum. Exhibits to do with the house itself include the kitchen, bedroom, lounge, the bakery, laundry, and the cellar.
Village life is depicted with shops - a tavern, a grocer's, a hatter's, a bakery, a butcher's, a cobbler's, the apothecary, the basket maker, and a hairdresser. There is a school and several businesses including a thatcher, carder, saddler, carpenter, cooper, wheelwright, blacksmith and beekeeper.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.musee-steenwerck.com/v3/|title=Museum of Rural Life - official site}}</ref>
====The Organ Farm====
This museum presents a collection of mechanical instruments, mechanical organs, music boxes, phonographs and mechanical pianos. There is also a mechanical violin, of which only a few remain in the world.
===Folk music, dance and celebration===
====Totor: the festival giant====
[[File:Totor.jpg|thumb|220px|''Totor'' with his trade-mark top-hat, bow-tie and black dinner jacket]]
''Totor'' is a processional giant, inaugurated first in 1933, and used on various feast days. His body was made of wood having been made by the local carpenter and cooper; the papier-mâché head was bought in Lille and brought to Steenwerck by bicycle. He measured {{convert|4.75|m|ft|abbr=on}} and weighed {{convert|60|kg|lb|abbr=on}}. Unfortunately, he disappeared during the Second World War.
Another, much smaller one was made in 1947, but with the public celebration of feast days [[Irreligion in France|on the wane]], this giant didn't last the humid conditions of storage. Since then, however, two more Totors have been made, one in 1978 and, the one in current use, in 2006. These two are identical to each other in design and measure {{convert|5.70|m|ft|abbr=on}}, with a weight of {{convert|120|kg|lb|abbr=on}} clothed.<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://totor-de-steenwerck.e-monsite.com/ |title=Totor of Steenwerck website |access-date=17 August 2012 |archive-date=24 June 2012 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120624021347/http://totor-de-steenwerck.e-monsite.com/ |url-status=dead }}</ref>
====Vonchelle: traditional music and dance====
In the northern French dialect spoken in Steenwerck "Vonchelle" is a bindweed, a plant which typifies the Flanders volunteer, in that it has very deep roots. Because of this the name has been given to a group which performs traditional dances music at Steenwerck.
The group Vonchelle started in September 1981. Initially it only focused on getting to know and teaching traditional Flemish dances, but a decade later a band was formed and Vonchelle is now involved fully in the Folk circuit.
Their repertoire includes quadrilles, rounds, schottisches, polkas, and waltzes. They also perform from a traditional Flemish heritage, with some borrowings from the Irish repertoire, for example, jigs, circles, and so on, or the centre of France, for example, bourées.
The instruments they use are quite a collection. They have bagpipes, flutes, tin whistles, clarinets, Irish spoons, flutes, violins, guitars, harmonicas, mandolins, derbouhas, bodhrans and accordions.<ref>[http://www.valleedelalys.fr/Vonchelle-a-Steenwerck.html Office du Tourisme de la Vallée de la Lys : Vonchelle - STEENWERCK] {{Webarchive|url=https://archive.today/20130213162511/http://www.valleedelalys.fr/Vonchelle-a-Steenwerck.html |date=2013-02-13 }}</ref>
===Architectural heritage===
====The Church of St John the Baptist====
[[File:Steenwerck-Eglise.jpg|199px|left|thumb|The Church of St John the Baptist at Steenwerck]]The Church of St John the Baptist is located on the site of a Roman temple, and was mentioned in 1182. It holds a baptismal font from 1587. The church was destroyed during the First World War, but was rebuilt in 1923 to the design of Armand Lemay, an architect from Lille. It consists of a nave and two aisles. In the choir, the stained glass windows of Pierre Turpin, master glass lillois retrace the life of St. John the Baptist. A 1/50 scale model of the church can be seen inside the church which was made in 1951.<ref>[http://www.valleedelalys.fr/Eglise-Saint-Jean-Baptiste-a.html Office du Tourisme de la Vallée de la Lys : Eglise Saint Jean Baptiste - STEENWERCK] {{Webarchive|url=https://archive.today/20130217132703/http://www.valleedelalys.fr/Eglise-Saint-Jean-Baptiste-a.html |date=2013-02-17 }}</ref>
===The Church of Our Lady of Sorrows===
As early as 1850, the inhabitants of the hamlet of La Croix du Bac, which is included as a part of Steenwerck, but is just over a mile down the road, had designed a project to build a church, despite opposition from the parish priest of Steenwerck, as well as from the town council and local merchants. A plot of land was offered by Mr. Amand Chieux. Some residents of La Croix du Bac gave money, others gave their labour and materials: and, so the Church of [[Our Lady of Sorrows]] was built.
When the church was complete, the people asked the diocese for a priest, but the bishop, knowing of local opposition from Steenwerck, refused. So, the people threatened to seek a Protestant pastor, but before a schism could begin the bishop changed his mind and created a new parish, on 26 January 1870, with its own parish priest, Abbé Leleu.
The interior of the church is decorated with 27 devotional statues of popular saints. Because of this, the church is also called "the reliquary of popular devotion".<ref>[http://www.valleedelalys.fr/Eglise-Notre-Dame-des-Sept.html Office du Tourisme de la Vallée de la Lys : L'église Notre-Dame des Sept Douleurs à La Croix du Bac - STEENWERCK] {{Webarchive|url=https://archive.today/20130213145311/http://www.valleedelalys.fr/Eglise-Notre-Dame-des-Sept.html |date=2013-02-13 }}</ref>
====Wayside chapels====
[[File:Steenwerck-Maison flamande.jpg|199px|right|thumb|The Flemish house]]As in much of France, wayside shrines and chapels can be seen in and around Steenwerck. Each chapel is a small building with a roof and is designed as a place for people to pray as they pass by. There are 25 chapels scattered around both the town and the hamlet of Steenwerck, "Croix du Bac." The oldest chapel is from the 16th century and the most recent is the chapel of St. Rita, erected in 1979.
====The Flemish house====
The Flemish house was built, in 1890, on the initiative of Pierre Dutrie, in the Gothic Revival style, because of his love of the city of Bruges where he had two friends. He employed the Bruges architect Stephen Timmery, who was known for restoring the monuments of Bruges, to draw the plans and manage the building of the house. All the craftsmen working for the building: bricklayers, stonemasons, carpenters came from this Belgian city.
It was on the death of his mother, in 1982, that her son André Dutrie donated the house to the town for one symbolic franc. It was then made into a museum.
The facade became worn over the years, but it was fully restored in 1994. The interior was completed in late 1999. It has been registered as a historical monument since 1980.<ref>[http://www.valleedelalys.fr/Maison-Flamande-STEENWERCK.html Office du Tourisme de la Vallée de la Lys : La Maison Flamande - STEENWERCK] {{Webarchive|url=https://archive.today/20130213175911/http://www.valleedelalys.fr/Maison-Flamande-STEENWERCK.html |date=2013-02-13 }}</ref>

# Causey Pike Fault
The Causey Pike Fault or Causey Pike Thrust is a major WSW-ENE trending fault within the Lower Paleozoic rocks of the English Lake District. It is named for Causey Pike, where the fault was first recognised.
## Extent
The Causey Pike Fault has been recognised across the entire outcrop of the Lake District inlier, extending about 35 km from near Ennerdale Bridge in the west, to near Troutbeck in the east. A possible continuation of the fault to the east has been recognised in the Cross Fell inlier, where it also juxtaposes two differing parts of the Skiddaw Group.
## Recognition
It juxtaposes two successions dominated by mudrocks that are of similar age. To the north of the fault, the Ordovician Skiddaw Group is represented by the Kirk Stile Formation, to the south by the Buttermere Formation, both of Arenig age. The younger sequence of volcanic rocks overlying the Skiddaw Group also differs, with the Eycott Volcanic Group to the north and the Borrowdale Volcanic Group to the south. The fault is described as a thrust near Causey Pike, where metasomatised rocks of the Crummock Water Aureole are emplaced over sandstone olistoliths of the Buttermere Formation, but the overall displacement on this structure is oblique, with a significant component of sinistral (left lateral) strike-slip motion.
## Age of movement
The differences in stratigraphy and interpreted depositional environment across the fault may indicate that the fault was originally a normal fault, active during deposition of the Skiddaw Group. The oblique slip movement on the fault occurred during the Acadian Orogeny, at least in part postdating the contact metamorphism that caused the development of the Crummock Water Aureole (dated to about 401 Ma - Emsian), which itself postdates the formation of the regional cleavage seen within the Skiddaw Group.

# Platanthera cristata
Platanthera cristata, commonly known as the crested yellow orchid or the crested orange bog orchid, is a species of orchid, a flowering plant in the family Orchidaceae, native to North America. It was first formally described in 1835 by English botanist, John Lindley.
It produces 2–4 stem leaves and bears a dense inflorescence of multiple showy, bright orange flowers. The labellum is often highly fringed, and a spur protrudes from the back of the flower with a triangular or key-hole shaped opening. It can be found growing in moist meadows, marshes, and prairies, as well as in sphagnum bogs and wooded flats across the southeastern United States from Texas to Florida and up the east coast to New Hampshire.

# Matthew Guthrie
Matthew Guthrie (1743 – 30 August 1807) was a Scottish physician, mineralogist and traveller who rose to be councillor to the Russian royal family. He made extensive studies of Russian history and folklore, and did much to foster international relationships between Russia and Scotland and promote Russian culture. He was one of the founders of the Royal Society of Edinburgh.
His life closely paralleled that of Dr John Grieve and they were undoubtedly acquainted and probably friends. He was also a friend of John Howard who had also visited Russia.
## Life
He was born in Edinburgh in 1743, son of Henry (Harie) Guthrie, 9th Baron Haukerton (Halkerton) (1709–1794) and Rachel (née Milne, 1719–1746), and grandson of Rev Gideon Guthrie of Fetteresso and later Bishop of Brechin. His mother died when he was young. His father abandoned his title as Baron in 1747 following the Jacobite Rising of 1745 to avoid ill-feeling. His father remarried, to Elizabeth Tytler of Woodhouselee, younger sister of William Tytler. The family lived in the Nicholson area of Edinburgh, where the father worked as a lawyer in "Durie's Office".
Guthrie attended the High School in Edinburgh then studied medicine at the University of Edinburgh. He matriculated in 1764, there is no record of his graduation. He does appear to have trained as a surgeon. He went to Russia in 1769 and stayed there for most of his life. His initial role was as physician to the 1st and 2nd Imperial Corps of Noble Cadets in Saint Petersburg. He was granted an MD in Saint Petersburg in 1776. He later became a personal Councillor to both Tsar Alexander I and his wife, Empress Elizabeth.
In 1782 he was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society of London. In 1783 he was a Founding Fellow of the Royal Society of Edinburgh.
He died in Saint Petersburg, Russia on 30 August 1807.
## Family
He was married to Marie or Maria Dunant (of French descent and sometimes called Marie de Romaud-Survesnes) on 31 May 1781 at the British Chaplaincy in Saint Petersburg in Russia. She had previously directed a convent school responsible for educating the female nobility of Russia. They had two daughters, Anastasia Jessie Guthrie (1782–1855) and Mary Elizabeth Guthrie (1789–1850). Anastasia married 59-year-old Charles Gascoigne in 1797 when she was 15.
Following Gascoigne's death in 1809 she married Thomson Bonar of Campden. Their daughter Anastasia Bonar (1812–1857) was the second wife of her cousin, Patrick Fraser Tytler.
Guthrie's second daughter, Mary Elizabeth, married General Sir James Hay KCH.
Guthrie's older sister Euphan married Charles Wright and was mother-in-law to Professor John Robison.

# Nandi Bushell
Nandi Lily Bushell (/ˈnændiː ˈbʊʃəl/ NAN-dee BUSH-əl; born 28 April 2010) is a South African-born British musician, singer, songwriter, and social media personality. She became known for her drumming skills by posting cover versions of popular rock songs to her YouTube and Instagram accounts, and her online drum battle with Dave Grohl received international coverage in 2020. By age ten, Bushell's videos had earned the attention of musicians including Grohl, Lenny Kravitz, Anderson .Paak, and Questlove, and led to numerous television appearances.
Bushell was the youngest artist featured on the cover of Modern Drummer magazine and is the first-ever musician-in-residence at Cartoon Network. She has performed with Kravitz and in concert with Grohl's band Foo Fighters, and was a featured guest at the Platinum Jubilee of Elizabeth II in London.
Bushell has been writing and recording her own music since age ten. Three of those songs, in which she performs all parts, were offered as singles ahead of her first EP, Into the Abyss, set for 2023. Its first single, "The Shadows", was released in September 2022.
## Early life
Bushell was born in Durban; her mother Lungile is from KwaZulu-Natal, whilst her father John is British. Her family moved from Durban to Ipswich, Suffolk, when she was two. Bushell describes herself as "British and Zulu".
I was better than my dad in, like, two weeks.
—Nandi Bushell
I was extremely happy that Nandi was so good. But, at the same time, I was feeling quite inferior ... to a five-year-old.
Her parents are not musicians, though her father played in bands during his university years. When John showed his children a video for The Beatles' "Hey Jude", Bushell was fascinated by Ringo Starr's performance and showed an interest in playing the drums. Her parents bought her first drum kit as a reward for good grades at school; whilst accompanying his daughter on guitar, he saw that his five-year-old daughter had strong skills at keeping a beat. At age six, Bushell began taking lessons with a local drum teacher; her first week was "really hard, but then I just got it." With her dad's help, Bushell began posting to social media her covers of various songs, including a music video he created with an alien theme as seven-year-old Nandi drummed along to "Toxicity" by System of a Down. She also attended jam sessions at a local pub, where she played with adult musicians as part of the Ipswich Rock Project.
## Career
### Music
#### Viral videos; Dave Grohl drum battle (2018–2021)
Bushell's videos on social media were spotted by established musicians, many of whom offered gifts. After Questlove saw one of her Instagram videos, he sent her a custom child-sized drum kit. Her cover of "Use Me" caught the attention of Anderson .Paak, and Lenny Kravitz invited Bushell to meet and accompany him during a sound check at The O2 Arena whilst on tour in June 2019. Kravitz and drummer Nate Smith later sent Bushell a custom drum kit. In July 2019, she was invited to meet with Questlove at the On Blackheath festival at Blackheath. After her multi-instrument cover of "Plug In Baby" was seen by Muse's Matt Bellamy, he gifted her one of his signature guitars.
Her drum cover of Nirvana's "In Bloom" went viral in November 2019, gaining over 10 million views via Twitter within a week. Dave Grohl, the drummer on Nevermind, learned of the video from album producer Butch Vig, and was amazed by her "joy and energy". In August 2020, in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, Bushell uploaded a cover of "Everlong" by Foo Fighters, another of Grohl's bands, and challenged him to a drum-off, calling him her favourite drummer. Grohl thought it was "adorable", but his friends kept texting him, "dude, you need to step up and respond to this. You have to represent." Grohl responded by drumming along with "Dead End Friends" by his supergroup Them Crooked Vultures to return the challenge to Bushell. After she posted a video drumming to the same song, Grohl conceded defeat. He subsequently performed an original song inspired by Bushell; she responded by writing and recording a song dedicated to Grohl. The remote drum battle received international coverage, drew millions of views, and bolstered Bushell's presence on social media: within six months, she had over 800,000 followers on Instagram and 250,000 followers on YouTube.
Grohl cited their drum-off as the reason he chose February 2021 to release Medicine at Midnight, which Foo Fighters had been holding back during the pandemic. "I hope our record can make people feel the same [joy] as my drum battle with Nandi."
#### Foo Fighters concert
During a video chat with Bushell in November 2020, Grohl invited her to perform with him and Foo Fighters on stage once they were able to tour again. They met in person for the first time on 26 August 2021 at The Forum in California, where Grohl introduced his "arch nemesis" on drums to perform "Everlong" and close the sold-out show. In her review for Variety, Jessica Shalvoy wrote that Bushell was "absolutely shredding ... [she] sounded like she'd been touring with Foos for the past 26 years", despite having met in person that same night. Kelli Skye Fadroski of The Orange County Register called it "epic"; Billboard's Gil Kaufman wrote, "the band's ecstatic preteen protégé flawlessly played them home like a pro."
Bushell's viral appearance led to the return in September of "Everlong" to the music charts. The 1997 song also made Billboard's Hot Hard Rock Songs (#2), Hot Rock & Alternative Songs (#11), and Hot Alternative Songs (#17) lists, none of which existed when it was released.
#### Musicianship (2021–present)
Bushell and Roman Morello wrote and performed the song "The Children Will Rise Up" in October 2021 to warn of the dangers of climate change. The music video features Roman's father Tom Morello, along with Jack Black and Greta Thunberg.
In addition to drums, Bushell plays lead and bass guitar and piano; her videos include covers of rock songs in which she performs all parts using both video synchronization and a loop station. She also plays saxophone, including for her covers of songs by Bill Withers and John Coltrane.
Bushell has written and recorded an EP, Into the Abyss, and performs all parts; its first single, "The Shadows", was released on 30 September 2022. The song is "quite dark", and Bushell said she wrote it to help her father and others going through depression. Gen Handley of Spin magazine called the song "incredibly moving and mature"; Matt Owen of Guitar World wrote that whilst her musical inspirations are present in the "haunting, riff-heavy" song, "it also introduces us to a nuanced Nandi flair, one that showcases her approach to melody and arrangement."
Bushell's live appearances in 2022 included the Platinum Jubilee of Elizabeth II in June, where she participated in both the Platinum Party at the Palace and the Platinum Jubilee Pageant. In September, Bushell was one of dozens of artists invited to join Foo Fighters on stage for the Taylor Hawkins tribute concert at Wembley Stadium, where she performed "Learn to Fly" using drumsticks given to her by Hawkins the year before. Dave Grohl introduced her as "our friend, the coolest fucking drummer in the world" and added, "she's the biggest rock star on the bill. I know we got Queen and Rush and all that shit, but we got Nandi tonight." Bushell called it both epic and bittersweet to play Wembley "under very sad circumstances".
Bushell released another original song, "Sweet Nightmares", in October 2023, which was produced with help from Carl Restivo. The song is remininecent of the style of Slipknot, whom she called "her favorite band". The song features Josh Brolin on some backing vocals, and who appears thanks to a common friendship with photographer Brian Bowen Smith.
In March 2025, Bushell announced that she started a band called Blu Reflection with two of her friends. The band released their first single titled “The Only One” that same month.
### Television
#### Advertising
Bushell was one of four young musicians who recorded "Bohemian Rhapsody" for a John Lewis & Partners advertisement in 2018. The casting process required that she audition three times.
In November 2019, Bushell portrayed a young girl performing "Don't You (Forget About Me)" in an award-winning Christmas advertisement for Argos alongside actor and drummer Omar Abidi as her father. Creative director Danny Hunt said casting the daughter role was "actually really stressful", and he worried that the ad wouldn't work until they saw Bushell. Argos marketing manager Becky Desert said Bushell was "the obvious choice" out of more than 100 children, "being upbeat, fun and celebrating the excitement of dream fulfillment at Christmas".
Argos featured Bushell in its 2020 campaign, "Drum From Home". The adverts encouraged viewers to improvise drum kits during the COVID-19 lockdown.
#### Other appearances
That December, she made her first trip to the United States to be a guest on The Ellen DeGeneres Show. After Bushell told DeGeneres that she wanted to learn bass guitar, DeGeneres presented one as a gift.
Still age nine, Bushell appeared on the Scandinavian chat show Skavlan in 2020. During the interview, Dua Lipa invited her to go on tour.
Bushell and her brother Thomas appeared as animated versions of themselves in the seventh-season episode of Teen Titans Go!, "Jump City Rock" which premiered on 12 September 2022.
Bushell plays character Emerald in the third season of Andy and the Band on CBeebies. She is the Goddaughter of the Godfather of Rock Brian May, and assists the band in saving Planet Rock by posing as their new manager to help them win the Battle of the Bands.
### Film
Director Kay Cannon cast Bushell as a drummer girl in the 2021 American film Cinderella after convincing Bushell's father that she would be perfect for the role. She has since become friends with Cannon and co-star Camila Cabello.
## Accolades
Cartoon Network named Bushell their first official musician-in-residence in February 2021. She was featured on the cover of the June 2021 issue of Modern Drummer, the magazine's youngest cover artist to date. Hit Like a Girl named Bushell one of its ambassador heroes for 2021.
In February 2022, Drumeo presented her with their inaugural Tony Williams award for her "infectious energy and passion [that] encourages and inspires people to get excited about drumming and about music". She was named the winner following an online poll.
During the 7 October 2022 episode of Blue Peter, Bushell was awarded the Gold badge for her musical achievements and for "raising awareness about inequality". The Gold badge is the programme's highest honour; past winners include Ed Sheeran, Madonna, and Queen Elizabeth II.
Bushell was voted #2 by readers of MusicRadar in December 2022 for its annual list of "best online drum personalities". It was her third straight year in that spot.
She is portrayed, along with 24 other woman musicians, in the book Rebel Girls Rock, the latest edition of the Rebel Girls series, released in the week of International Women's Day 2023.
## Personal life and advocacy
Many social movements have been started and sustained by young people. Nandi and Roman [Morello] used music as a way to share their compelling message about why we need to take action on climate change.
Bushell lives with her parents and her younger brother Thomas in Ipswich. She has been involved in numerous local and international humanitarian causes including the annual fireworks display at Christchurch Park, which raises funds for Scouting and other organisations.
In October 2021, Bushell was one of dozens of drummers and other musicians invited by Ringo Starr to perform a cover of The Beatles' "Come Together" for the WhyHunger project. Her and Roman Morello's climate song "The Children Will Rise Up" was praised by Lenny Kravitz and Simon Pegg, and Barack Obama lauded their "compelling message" from the COP26 summit.
Also in October, she took part in "Redraw Your World" for Cartoon Network and made a video for its long-running "Stop Bullying: Speak Up" campaign. She performs "live drums" in the Netflix COVID-19 documentary Convergence: Courage in a Crisis.

# Western Front (Soviet Union)
The Western Front was a front of the Red Army, one of the Red Army Fronts during World War II.
The Western Front was created on 22 June 1941 from the Western Special Military District (which before July 1940 was known as Belorussian Special Military District). The first Front Commander was Dmitry Pavlov (continuing from his position as District Commander since June 1940).
The western boundary of the Front in June 1941 was 470 km (290 mi) long, from the southern border of Lithuania to the Pripyat River and the town of Włodawa. It connected with the adjacent North-Western Front, which extended from the Lithuanian border to the Baltic Sea, and the Southwestern Front in Ukraine.
## Operational history
### Front dispositions 22 June 1941
The 1939 partition of Poland according to the Molotov–Ribbentrop Pact established a new western border with no permanent defense installations, and the army deployment within the Front created weak flanks.
At the outbreak of war with Germany, the Western Special Military District was, in accordance with Soviet pre-war planning, immediately converted into the Western Front, under the District's commander, Army General Dmitry Pavlov. The main forces of the Western Front were concentrated forward along the frontier, organized in three armies. To defend the Białystok salient, the front fielded the 10th Army, under Lieutenant General Konstantin Golubev, supported by the 6th Mechanized Corps and 13th Mechanized Corps, under Major Generals Mikhail Khatskilevich and Pyotr Akhliustin. On the 10th Army's left flank was 4th Army, under Lieutenant General Aleksandr Korobkov, supported by the 14th Mechanized Corps, under Major General Stepan Oborin; and on the right the 3rd Army, under Lieutenant General Vasily Kuznetsov supported by the 11th Mechanized Corps, under Major General Dmitry Karpovich Mostovenko. To the rear was the 13th Army, under Lieutenant General Pyotr Filatov. This army initially existed as a headquarters unit only, with no assigned combat forces.
Among forces of Frontal designation were the 2nd Rifle Corps (100th, 161st Rifle Divisions), 21st Rifle Corps (17th, 24th, 37th Rifle Division), 44th Rifle Corps (64th, 108th Rifle Divisions), 47th Rifle Corps (55th, 121st, 143rd Rifle Divisions), 50th Rifle Division, 4th Airborne Corps (7th, 8th, 214th Airborne Brigades) commanded by Alexey Zhadov at Minsk, and the 58th (Sebezh), 61st (Polotsk), 63rd (Minsk-Slutsky), 64th (Zambrow) and 65th (Mozyr) Fortified Regions. Mechanised forces in reserve included the 20th Mechanized Corps under Major General Andrey Nikitin at Minsk and the 17th Mechanized Corps, under Major General Mikhail Petrov, slightly further forward at Slonim. Altogether, on 22 June the Western Special Military District fielded 671,165 men, 14,171 guns and mortars, 2,900 tanks and 1,812 combat aircraft.
The Western Front was on the main axis of attack by the German Army Group Centre, commanded by Field Marshal Fedor von Bock. German plans for Operation Barbarossa called for the Army Group Centre's Second Panzer Group, under Colonel General Heinz Guderian, to attack south of Brest, advance through Slonim and Baranovichi, turning north-east towards Minsk where it would be met by Colonel General Hermann Hoth's Third Panzer Group, which would attack Vilnius, to the north of the Białystok salient, and then turn south-east. In addition to the two panzer groups. The Army Group Centre also included Field Marshal Günther von Kluge's Fourth Army and Colonel General Adolf Strauss' Ninth Army. Air support was provided by Field Marshal Albert Kesselring's Luftflotte 2 which contained more than half the German aircraft committed to the attack on the Soviet Union.
### Defeat on the Frontiers 22–28 June
The war started disastrously for the Western Front with the Battle of Białystok-Minsk. The German Ninth and Fourth Armies of Army Group Centre penetrated the border north and south of the Białystok salient. The Front's tanks and aviation at airfields were annihilated by German air strikes.
Soviet command and control suffered almost complete breakdown. Worst hit was the 4th Army, which failed to establish communications with headquarters both above and below it. Attempts to launch a counter-attack with the 10th Army on 23 June were unsuccessful. That same day the German Third Panzer Group captured Vilnius after outflanking the 3rd Army. On 24 June, Pavlov again attempted to organize a counter-attack, assigning his deputy Lieutenant General Ivan Boldin the command of the 6th and 11th Mechanized Corps and the 6th Cavalry Corps, commanded by Major General Ivan Semenovich Nikitin. With this mobile force Boldin was to attack northward from the Białystok region towards Grodno to prevent encirclement of Soviet forces in the salient.
This attempted counter-attack was also fruitless. Almost without any interference from Soviet fighters, the close support aircraft of Germany's 8th Air Corps were able to break the backbone of Western Front's counter-attack at Grodno. The 6th Cavalry Corps was so badly mauled by this aerial onslaught against its columns that it was unable to deploy for attack. Jagdgeschwader 53's Hermann Neuhoff recalled:
We found the main roads in the area heavily congested with Russian vehicles of all kinds, but no fighter opposition and very little flak. We made one firing pass after another and caused terrible destruction on the ground. Literally everything was ablaze by the time we turned for home. This air operation continued until nightfall on 24th June, resulting in 105 tanks reportedly destroyed by German aircraft. Particularly successful attacks were made by the Dornier Do 17's of KG 2. In effect Pavlov's counter-attack was completely routed.
Of the 6th Mechanized Corps' 1,212 tanks, only about 200 reached their assembly areas due to air attacks and mechanical breakdowns, and even they ran out of fuel by the end of the day. The same fate awaited the 243 tanks of the 11th Mechanized Corps, ordered to attack towards Grodno on 25 June. The 6th Cavalry Corps suffered 50% casualties and its commander, Nikitin, was captured. The attempted attack allowed many Soviet forces to escape from the Białystok region towards Minsk, but this brought only temporary relief. With both the German Second and Third Panzer Groups racing towards Minsk on the Western Front's southern and northern flanks, a new encirclement threatened.
In the evening of 25 June, the German 47th Panzer Corps cut between Slonim and Vawkavysk, forcing the attempted withdrawal of troops in the salient to avoid encirclement and opening the southern approaches to Minsk.
Pavlov dispatched orders to disengage and withdraw into new defences behind the Shchara River, but the few units receiving the orders were unable to break contact with the enemy. Hounded by constant air attacks, Pavlov's forces fled eastward on foot. Most of the 10th Army was not able to cross the river because the bridges over the Shchara were destroyed by air attacks. Further east, the 13th Army, which had received orders to assemble various withdrawing forces into the defence of Minsk, had its headquarters ambushed by German spearheads and its defence plans captured. Pavlov then ordered his 20th Mechanized and 4th Airborne Corps, until then held in reserve, to halt the Germans at Slutsk. However the 20th Mechanized Corps had only 93 older tanks and the 4th Airborne had to deploy on foot from lack of aircraft. Neither proved any threat to the advancing Second Panzer Group.
On 27 June 1941, the German Second and Third Panzer Groups striking from south and north linked up near Minsk, surrounding and eventually destroying the Soviet 3rd, 10th and 13th Armies, and portions of the 4th Army, in total about 20 divisions, while the remainder of the 4th Army fell back eastwards toward the Berezina River. On 28 June 1941, the Ninth and Fourth German Armies linked east of Białystok splitting the encircled Soviet forces into two pockets: a larger Białystok pocket containing the Soviet 10th Army and a smaller Navahrudak pocket.
In the first 18 days of the war, the Western Front had suffered 417,790 casualties, lost 9,427 guns and mortars, 4,799 tanks and 1,777 combat aircraft, and practically ceased to exist as a military force.
The Front commander, General of the Army Dmitry Pavlov, and the Front Staff were recalled to Moscow. There they were accused of intentional disorganization of defense and retreat without battle, sentenced as traitors, and executed. The families of the traitors were repressed according to NKVD Order no. 00486. This order dealt with families of traitors of the Motherland. (They were rehabilitated in 1956.)
### Western Front reorganized 28 June – 2 July
Furious over the loss of Minsk on 28 June, Stalin replaced the disgraced Pavlov with Colonel General Andrey Yeryomenko as commander of the Western Front. Arriving at Front headquarters at Mogilev on the morning of 29 June, Yeryomenko was faced with the daunting task of restoring order to the Western Front's defences. To accomplish this task he had initially only the remnants of the 4th and 13th Armies, of which the former had been reduced to the equivalent of a division in strength. On 1 July, he ordered the 13th Army to fall back to the Berezina River and defend the sectors between the towns of Kholkolnitza, Borisov and Brodets. Further south, the 4th Army were to defend the Berezina from Brodets through Svisloch to Bobruisk. To reinforce the Front's defences the elite 1st Moscow Motor Rifle Division was rushed from Moscow Military District to Borisov. This division, commanded by Colonel Yakov Kreizer, was at full strength with two motorized regiments, one tank regiment and 229 tanks. However, by that date Yeryomenko's defense line on the Berezina had already been rendered obsolete by Guderian's Panzer Divisions. On 29 June, the 3rd Panzer Division captured a bridgehead at Bobruisk from the 4th Army's 47th Rifle Corps, and on 30 June, the 4th Panzer Division seized the railroad bridge at Svisloch from the 4th Airborne Corps, cutting off one of that corps' three brigades and most of the 20th Mechanized Corps.
Then on 2 July Stalin appointed Semyon Timoshenko, Marshal of the Soviet Union and People's Commissar for Defence, to command the Western Front, with Yeryomenko and Marshal Semyon Budyonny as his deputies. At the same time Stalin transferred four armies, the 19th Army, 20th Army, 21st Army and 22nd Army, from Marshal Budyonny's Group of Reserve Armies to the Western Front. After a telephone conversation with Timoshenko, Stalin added a fifth reserve army, the weak 16th Army, as well.
Timoshenko's orders were to defend the Western Dvina River-Dniepr River line. To this end the front deployed on its northern flank the 22nd Army under Lieutenant General Filipp Yershakov to defend the sector from Sebezh southward to the Western Dvina, and then south along that river from north of Polotsk to Beshenkovichi. South of the 22nd Army, the 20th Army, under Lieutenant General Pavel Kurochkin, was to defend the gap between the rivers from Beshenkovichi on the Western Dvina to Shklov on the Dnepr, supported by the 5th Mechanized Corps, under Major General Ilya Alekseyenko, and the 7th Mechanized Corps, under Major General Vasilii Ivanovich Vinogradov. The 19th Army, under Lieutenant General Ivan Konev, that time regrouping northward from the Kiev region, was to defend the Vitebsk region to the rear of 22nd and 20th Armies. The 19th Army included the 23rd Mechanized Corps under Major General Mikhail Akimovich Miasnikov. On the front's southern flank the 21st Army, under Lieutenant General Vasyl Herasymenko, including the 25th Mechanized Corps under Major General Semyon Krivoshein, was to defend the sector from Rogachev to Rechitsa. The remnants of the 4th and 13th Armies were to fall back and regroup at the Sozh River at the rear of the 21st Army. In early July Stalin relieved Korobkov, the commander of the 4th Army, and had him executed for treason. He was replaced by Colonel Leonid Sandalov Finally the 16th Army, under Lieutenant General Mikhail Fedorovich Lukin, was kept in reserve in the Smolensk region.
### German advance to the Dniepr 2–9 July
The Western Front had been given a brief respite to erect new defences while the Germans reduced the pockets created during the Białystok-Minsk battles. With the Minsk pocket nearly disintegrated, the German Panzer Groups resumed their offensive against the Western Front on 2 July. On the Front's northern flank, the advance of Hoth's forces was hampered by poor weather. The LVII Motorised Corps made the best progress, but encountered heavy resistance from the Soviet 22nd Army's 62nd Rifle Corps on the approaches to Polotsk, which led the German corps commander, Adolf-Friedrich Kuntzen, to reroute his 19th Panzer Division northward to Disna on the southern bank of the Western Dvina. The XXXIX Motorised Corps, hindered by poor road conditions and resistance from the Soviet 20th Army and 5th and 7th Mechanized Corps, only advanced only as far as Lepel in two days. Further south Borisov, defended by the remnants of the 13th Army and the Borisov Tank School, fell to the 18th Panzer Division of the 2nd Panzer Group's XXXXVII Motorised Corps on 2 July. The Germans captured the road bridge intact despite Yeryomenko's personal instructions that it be destroyed. Timoshenko was ordered by the Stavka (the Soviet High Command) to restore the situation with Kreizer's 1st Moscow Motor Rifle Division. The XXXXVI Motorised Corps also captured a bridgehead across the Berezina on 2 July when the SS Motorized Division Das Reich captured Pogost, but were then for two days hindered by the 13th Army and 4th Army's 4th Airborne and 20th Mechanized Corps. On the southern flank, the remnants of the 4th Army's Rifle Divisions were only able to offer light resistance to the German XXIV Motorised Corps; instead the attackers were repeatedly halted by destroyed bridges at the Berezina, Ola, Dobosna and Drut Rivers.
Kreizer launched his counter-attack against the German bridgehead at Borisov on 3 July, but the defenders had been forewarned by radio intercepts and air reconnaissance, and with their superior tactics beat back this isolated Soviet attack. Defeated, Kreizer accordingly retreated behind the Nacha River and fought during the withdrawal towards Orsha, where his troops were aided by the arrival of the 20th Army. Also on 3 July, the spearheads of the XXIV Motorised Corps reached the rain-swollen Dniepr, with the 3rd Panzer Division arriving at the river north of Rogachev and the 4th Panzer Division advancing to Bykhov. By nightfall the Western Front could report that remnants of the 4th and 13th Armies had been able to retreat across the Dniepr, however hardly anything of the 3rd and 10th Armies remained. Moreover, parts of the 13th Army and 17th Mechanized Corps were still west of the Dniepr. Accordingly, Timoshenko ordered his 21st Army to shore up its defences along the river and help the withdrawal by sending out forces to spoil the German advance. On 4 July, the 19th Panzer Division seized a bridgehead across the Western Dvina at Disna from the defending 51st Rifle Corps of the Soviet 22nd Army, where it was reinforced by the German 18th Motorised Division.
### The Smolensk pocket
The Front took part in the fierce Battle of Smolensk (1941), which managed to disrupt the German blitzkrieg for two months. The Germans successfully encircled and destroyed large parts of the Soviet 16th, 19th, and 20th Armies.
During July the Western Front's area of responsibility was reduced by the formation of the new Central and Reserve Fronts.
Stiffening Soviet resistance in the centre convinced Hitler to put a temporary halt to the advance towards Moscow and divert the Army Group Centre's armour towards Leningrad and Kiev.
### The Soviet Dukhovshchina Offensive
On 17 August, the Western Front launched an offensive towards Dukhovshchina as part of a larger Soviet attempt to counter-attack. However, despite some local successes, the offensive failed to breach the German defenses and the offensive was called off 10 September.
Newly promoted Colonel General Ivan Konev took over command in September when Timoshenko was transferred south to restore the situation in the then ongoing Battle of Kiev.
### The Vyazma pocket
On 2 October, German forces resumed their advance on Moscow with the launch of Operation Typhoon. The Western Front again suffered immense losses when large parts of its forces were encircled near Vyazma.
### Assault on Moscow
When Zhukov took over on 10 October, the Soviet Reserve Front had just been disbanded and its forces incorporated into Western Front, but given the pounding that Soviet forces had suffered, the force numbered only 90,000 men. The 16th Army under Konstantin Rokossovsky held at Volokolamsk, and General L. A. Govorov had the 5th Army, recently raised from 1st Guards Rifle Corps, and soon to include the 32nd Rifle Division at Mozhaisk. The 43rd Army was under General K. D. Golubev at Maloyaroslavets, and the 49th Army was near Kaluga under General I. G. Zakharin. The 49th Army had been formed in August 1941 and was initially assigned to the Reserve Front. On 1 September 1941, the 49th Army comprised the 194th, 220th, and 248th Rifle Divisions, and the 4th Division of the People's Militia. Meanwhile, the 33rd Army was forming at Naro-Fominsk under General Lieutenant M. G. Yefremov, and was to be assigned to Zhukov's command.
The Soviets just managed to halt the German advance in the Battle of Moscow, leading to further furious fighting in the Battles of Rzhev just to the west. In May 1942 the Front's air forces became the 1st Air Army.
### Later operations in World War II
The Front appears to have controlled the three armies - the 5th Army, 33rd Army, and 10th Guards Army - which formed the assault force in the Battle of Smolensk (1943). On 1 August 1943, the 70th Rifle Corps was listed on the Soviet order of battle, as a headquarters with no troops assigned, directly subordinate to the front.
On 24 April 1944, the Front was divided into the 2nd Belorussian Front and 3rd Belorussian Front.
### Status today
Russian ground troops continue the Soviet Army's organizational arrangement of having military districts that have both a wartime territorial administration role and the capability to generate formation headquarters (HQs) to command fronts. This was emphasized by reports of a Moscow Military District exercise in April 2001, when the district's units were to be divided into two groups, "one operating for the western front and the other for the wartime military district".

The 6th Cavalry Corps was so badly mauled by this aerial onslaught against its columns that it was unable to deploy for attack. [[Jagdgeschwader 53]]'s [[Hermann Neuhoff]] recalled: {{blockquote|We found the main roads in the area heavily congested with Russian vehicles of all kinds, but no fighter opposition and very little flak. We made one firing pass after another and caused terrible destruction on the ground. Literally everything was ablaze by the time we turned for home. This air operation continued until nightfall on 24th June, resulting in 105 tanks reportedly destroyed by German aircraft. Particularly successful attacks were made by the [[Dornier Do 17]]'s of [[Kampfgeschwader 2|KG 2]]. In effect Pavlov's counter-attack was completely routed.<ref>''Barbarossa - The Air Battle: July–December 1941'' by Christer Bergstrom, 2007 pp. 20-23.</ref>}}
Of the 6th Mechanized Corps' 1,212 tanks, only about 200 reached their assembly areas due to air attacks and mechanical breakdowns, and even they ran out of fuel by the end of the day. The same fate awaited the 243 tanks of the 11th Mechanized Corps, ordered to attack towards Grodno on 25 June.{{Sfn|Glantz|2010|p=37n34}} The 6th Cavalry Corps suffered 50% casualties and its commander, Nikitin, was captured. The attempted attack allowed many Soviet forces to escape from the Białystok region towards Minsk, but this brought only temporary relief. With both the German Second and Third Panzer Groups racing towards Minsk on the Western Front's southern and northern flanks, a new encirclement threatened.{{Sfn|Glantz|2010|p=32}}
In the evening of 25 June, the German 47th Panzer Corps cut between [[Slonim]] and [[Vawkavysk]], forcing the attempted withdrawal of troops in the salient to avoid encirclement and opening the southern approaches to Minsk.
Pavlov dispatched orders to disengage and withdraw into new defences behind the [[Shchara River]], but the few units receiving the orders were unable to break contact with the enemy. Hounded by constant air attacks, Pavlov's forces fled eastward on foot. Most of the 10th Army was not able to cross the river because the bridges over the Shchara were destroyed by air attacks. Further east, the 13th Army, which had received orders to assemble various withdrawing forces into the defence of Minsk, had its headquarters ambushed by German spearheads and its defence plans captured. Pavlov then ordered his 20th Mechanized and 4th Airborne Corps, until then held in reserve, to halt the Germans at [[Slutsk]].{{Sfn|Glantz|2010|p=32}} However the 20th Mechanized Corps had only 93 older tanks and the 4th Airborne had to deploy on foot from lack of aircraft. Neither proved any threat to the advancing Second Panzer Group.{{Sfn|Glantz|2010|p=38n39}}
On 27 June 1941, the German Second and Third Panzer Groups striking from south and north linked up near Minsk, surrounding and eventually destroying the Soviet 3rd, 10th and 13th Armies, and portions of the 4th Army, in total about 20 divisions, while the remainder of the 4th Army fell back eastwards toward the [[Berezina River]]. On 28 June 1941, the Ninth and Fourth German Armies linked east of Białystok splitting the encircled Soviet forces into two pockets: a larger Białystok pocket containing the Soviet 10th Army and a smaller [[Navahrudak]] pocket.
In the first 18 days of the war, the Western Front had suffered 417,790 casualties, lost 9,427 guns and mortars, 4,799 tanks and 1,777 combat aircraft, and practically ceased to exist as a military force.{{Sfn|Glantz|2010|pp=32–33}}
The Front commander, [[Army General (Soviet rank)|General of the Army]] [[Dmitry Pavlov (general)|Dmitry Pavlov]], and the Front Staff were recalled to Moscow. There they were accused of intentional disorganization of defense and retreat without battle, sentenced as traitors, and executed. The families of the traitors were repressed according to [[NKVD Order no. 00486]]. This order dealt with families of traitors of the Motherland. (They were rehabilitated in 1956.)
===Western Front reorganized 28 June – 2 July===
Furious over the loss of Minsk on 28 June, Stalin replaced the disgraced Pavlov with Colonel General [[Andrey Yeryomenko]] as commander of the Western Front. Arriving at Front headquarters at [[Mogilev]] on the morning of 29 June, Yeryomenko was faced with the daunting task of restoring order to the Western Front's defences. To accomplish this task he had initially only the remnants of the 4th and 13th Armies, of which the former had been reduced to the equivalent of a division in strength. On 1 July, he ordered the 13th Army to fall back to the Berezina River and defend the sectors between the towns of [[Kholkolnitza]], [[Barysaw|Borisov]] and [[Brodets]]. Further south, the 4th Army were to defend the Berezina from Brodets through Svisloch to [[Bobruisk]]. To reinforce the Front's defences the elite [[1st Guards Motor Rifle Division|1st Moscow Motor Rifle Division]] was rushed from [[Moscow Military District]] to Borisov. This division, commanded by Colonel [[Yakov Kreizer]], was at full strength with two motorized regiments, one tank regiment and 229 tanks. However, by that date Yeryomenko's defense line on the Berezina had already been rendered obsolete by Guderian's Panzer Divisions.{{Sfn|Glantz|2010|pp=56–57}} On 29 June, the [[3rd Panzer Division (Wehrmacht)|3rd Panzer Division]] captured a bridgehead at Bobruisk from the 4th Army's [[47th Rifle Corps]], and on 30 June, the [[4th Panzer Division]] seized the railroad bridge at Svisloch from the 4th Airborne Corps, cutting off one of that corps' three brigades and most of the 20th Mechanized Corps.{{Sfn|Glantz|2010|p=60}}
Then on 2 July Stalin appointed [[Semyon Timoshenko]], Marshal of the Soviet Union and People's Commissar for Defence, to command the Western Front, with Yeryomenko and Marshal [[Semyon Budyonny]] as his deputies. At the same time Stalin transferred four armies, the [[19th Army (Soviet Union)|19th Army]], [[20th Army (Soviet Union)|20th Army]], [[21st Army (Soviet Union)|21st Army]] and [[22nd Army (Soviet Union)|22nd Army]], from Marshal Budyonny's [[Group of Reserve Armies]] to the Western Front. After a telephone conversation with Timoshenko, Stalin added a fifth reserve army, the weak [[16th Army (Soviet Union)|16th Army]], as well.{{Sfn|Glantz|2010|p=58}}
Timoshenko's orders were to defend the [[Western Dvina River]]-[[Dniepr River]] line. To this end the front deployed on its northern flank the 22nd Army under Lieutenant General [[Filipp Yershakov]] to defend the sector from [[Sebezh]] southward to the Western Dvina, and then south along that river from north of [[Polotsk]] to [[Beshenkovichi]]. South of the 22nd Army, the 20th Army, under Lieutenant General [[Pavel Kurochkin]], was to defend the gap between the rivers from Beshenkovichi on the Western Dvina to [[Shklov]] on the Dnepr, supported by the [[5th Mechanised Corps (Soviet Union)|5th Mechanized Corps]], under Major General [[Ilya Alekseyenko]], and the [[7th Mechanized Corps (Soviet Union)|7th Mechanized Corps]], under Major General [[Vasilii Ivanovich Vinogradov]]. The 19th Army, under Lieutenant General [[Ivan Konev]], that time regrouping northward from the [[Kiev]] region, was to defend the [[Vitebsk]] region to the rear of 22nd and 20th Armies. The 19th Army included the [[23rd Mechanized Corps (Soviet Union)|23rd Mechanized Corps]] under Major General [[Mikhail Akimovich Miasnikov]]. On the front's southern flank the 21st Army, under Lieutenant General [[Vasyl Herasymenko]], including the [[25th Mechanized Corps (Soviet Union)|25th Mechanized Corps]] under Major General [[Semyon Krivoshein]], was to defend the sector from [[Rogachev]] to [[Rechitsa]]. The remnants of the 4th and 13th Armies were to fall back and regroup at the [[Sozh River]] at the rear of the 21st Army. In early July Stalin relieved Korobkov, the commander of the 4th Army, and had him executed for treason. He was replaced by Colonel [[Leonid Sandalov]] Finally the 16th Army, under Lieutenant General [[Mikhail Fedorovich Lukin]], was kept in reserve in the [[Smolensk]] region.{{Sfn|Glantz|2010|p=59}}
===German advance to the Dniepr 2–9 July===
The Western Front had been given a brief respite to erect new defences while the Germans reduced the pockets created during the Białystok-Minsk battles. With the Minsk pocket nearly disintegrated, the German Panzer Groups resumed their offensive against the Western Front on 2 July. On the Front's northern flank, the advance of Hoth's forces was hampered by poor weather. The [[LVII Motorised Corps (Germany)|LVII Motorised Corps]] made the best progress, but encountered heavy resistance from the Soviet 22nd Army's [[62nd Rifle Corps]] on the approaches to Polotsk, which led the German corps commander, [[Adolf-Friedrich Kuntzen]], to reroute his [[19th Panzer Division]] northward to [[Disna]] on the southern bank of the Western Dvina. The [[XXXIX Motorised Corps (Germany)|XXXIX Motorised Corps]], hindered by poor road conditions and resistance from the Soviet 20th Army and 5th and 7th Mechanized Corps, only advanced only as far as [[Lepel]] in two days.{{Sfn|Glantz|2010|pp=63–64}} Further south Borisov, defended by the remnants of the 13th Army and the Borisov Tank School, fell to the [[18th Panzer Division]] of the 2nd Panzer Group's [[XXXXVII Motorised Corps (Germany)|XXXXVII Motorised Corps]] on 2 July. The Germans captured the road bridge intact despite Yeryomenko's personal instructions that it be destroyed. Timoshenko was ordered by the [[Stavka]] (the Soviet High Command) to restore the situation with Kreizer's 1st Moscow Motor Rifle Division.{{Sfn|Glantz|2010|p=65}} The [[XXXXVI Motorised Corps (Germany)|XXXXVI Motorised Corps]] also captured a bridgehead across the Berezina on 2 July when the [[2nd SS Panzer Division Das Reich|SS Motorized Division ''Das Reich'']] captured [[Pogost]], but were then for two days hindered by the 13th Army and 4th Army's 4th Airborne and 20th Mechanized Corps.{{Sfn|Glantz|2010|p=67}} On the southern flank, the remnants of the 4th Army's Rifle Divisions were only able to offer light resistance to the German [[XXIV Motorised Corps (Germany)|XXIV Motorised Corps]]; instead the attackers were repeatedly halted by destroyed bridges at the Berezina, [[Ola River|Ola]], [[Dobosna River|Dobosna]] and [[Drut River]]s.{{Sfn|Glantz|2010|pp=67–68}}
Kreizer launched his counter-attack against the German bridgehead at Borisov on 3 July, but the defenders had been forewarned by radio intercepts and air reconnaissance, and with their superior tactics beat back this isolated Soviet attack. Defeated, Kreizer accordingly retreated behind the [[Nacha River]] and fought during the withdrawal towards [[Orsha]], where his troops were aided by the arrival of the 20th Army.{{Sfn|Glantz|2010|pp=66–67}} Also on 3 July, the spearheads of the XXIV Motorised Corps reached the rain-swollen Dniepr, with the 3rd Panzer Division arriving at the river north of Rogachev and the 4th Panzer Division advancing to [[Bykhov]]. By nightfall the Western Front could report that remnants of the 4th and 13th Armies had been able to retreat across the Dniepr, however hardly anything of the 3rd and 10th Armies remained. Moreover, parts of the 13th Army and 17th Mechanized Corps were still west of the Dniepr. Accordingly, Timoshenko ordered his 21st Army to shore up its defences along the river and help the withdrawal by sending out forces to spoil the German advance.{{Sfn|Glantz|2010|p=68}} On 4 July, the 19th Panzer Division seized a bridgehead across the Western Dvina at Disna from the defending [[51st Rifle Corps]] of the Soviet 22nd Army, where it was reinforced by the German [[18th Infantry Division (Wehrmacht)|18th Motorised Division]].{{Sfn|Glantz|2010|p=64}}
===The Smolensk pocket===
The Front took part in the fierce [[Battle of Smolensk (1941)]], which managed to disrupt the German ''[[blitzkrieg]]'' for two months. The Germans successfully encircled and destroyed large parts of the Soviet 16th, 19th, and 20th Armies.
During July the Western Front's area of responsibility was reduced by the formation of the new [[Central Front (Soviet Union)|Central]] and [[Reserve Front]]s.
Stiffening Soviet resistance in the centre convinced Hitler to put a temporary halt to the advance towards Moscow and divert the Army Group Centre's armour towards Leningrad and Kiev.
===The Soviet Dukhovshchina Offensive===
On 17 August, the Western Front launched an offensive towards [[Dukhovshchina, Smolensk Oblast|Dukhovshchina]] as part of a larger Soviet attempt to counter-attack. However, despite some local successes, the offensive failed to breach the German defenses and the offensive was called off 10 September.
Newly promoted Colonel General [[Ivan Konev]] took over command in September when Timoshenko was transferred south to restore the situation in the then ongoing [[Battle of Kiev (1941)|Battle of Kiev]].
===The Vyazma pocket===
On 2 October, German forces resumed their advance on Moscow with the launch of Operation Typhoon. The Western Front again suffered immense losses when large parts of its forces were encircled near [[Vyazma]].
===Assault on Moscow===
When Zhukov took over on 10 October, the [[Soviet Reserve Front]] had just been disbanded and its forces incorporated into Western Front,<ref name=GeorgyZhukov>{{Cite book |last=Zhukov |first=Georgy |title=Marshal of Victory, Volume II |publisher=Pen and Sword Books Ltd. |year=1974 |ISBN=9781781592915 |page=19}}</ref> but given the pounding that Soviet forces had suffered, the force numbered only 90,000 men.<ref>Erickson, ''The Road to Stalingrad'', 1975, p. 218</ref> The [[16th Army (Soviet Union)|16th Army]] under [[Konstantin Rokossovsky]] held at [[Volokolamsk]], and General L.

The [[43rd Army (Soviet Union)|43rd Army]] was under General K. D. Golubev at Maloyaroslavets, and the [[49th Army (Soviet Union)|49th Army]] was near Kaluga under General I. G. Zakharin. The 49th Army had been formed in August 1941 and was initially assigned to the Reserve Front. On 1 September 1941, the 49th Army comprised the 194th, 220th, and 248th Rifle Divisions, and the 4th Division of the [[Narodnoe Opolcheniye|People's Militia]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.tashv.nm.ru/BoevojSostavSA/1941/19410901.html|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100226082342/www.tashv.nm.ru/BoevojSostavSA/1941/19410901.html|archive-date=2010-02-26|title=Боевой состав Советской Армии на 1 сентября 1941 г.

G. Yefremov, and was to be assigned to Zhukov's command.
The Soviets just managed to halt the German advance in the [[Battle of Moscow]], leading to further furious fighting in the [[Battles of Rzhev]] just to the west. In May 1942 the Front's air forces became the [[1st Air Army]].
===Later operations in World War II===
The Front appears to have controlled the three armies - the [[5th Army (Soviet Union)|5th Army]], [[33rd Army (Soviet Union)|33rd Army]], and [[10th Guards Army (Soviet Union)|10th Guards Army]] - which formed the assault force in the [[Battle of Smolensk (1943)]]. On 1 August 1943, the [[70th Rifle Corps]] was listed on the Soviet [[order of battle]], as a headquarters with no troops assigned, directly subordinate to the front.
On 24 April 1944, the Front was divided into the [[2nd Belorussian Front]] and [[3rd Belorussian Front]].
===Status today===
Russian ground troops continue the Soviet Army's organizational arrangement of having military districts that have both a wartime territorial administration role and the capability to generate formation headquarters (HQs) to command fronts. This was emphasized by reports of a Moscow Military District exercise in April 2001, when the district's units were to be divided into two groups, "one operating for the western front and the other for the wartime military district".<ref>AVN Military News Agency 16 April 2001, via BBC Monitoring Global Newsline FSU Political File 17 April 2001.</ref>

# The Dennisons
The Dennisons were an English Merseybeat band, that emerged from the Liverpool scene in the early 1960s. Despite their background, and a couple of minor hit singles, they failed to achieve more than a local following and were unable to find a footing on the British Invasion. However, in 1963, Bob Wooler stated that "The Dennisons have created the biggest impact in Liverpool since the Beatles." The band's drummer, Clive Hornby, later became the actor best known for portraying Jack Sugden in British soap opera Emmerdale.
## Career
The Dennisons were formed in July 1961, at Liverpool Collegiate, and took their name from a Liverpool street.
They were inspired by another early Merseybeat band The Ravens, who later became Faron's Flamingos. The Dennisons advanced from learning the Ravens' chord patterns, to building a local reputation at the BICC club in Melling, Liverpool. They signed with Kennedy Street Enterprises in 1963, which ensured that they appeared at The Cavern Club, sharing bills with other aspiring acts such as The Beatles. Their original bass guitarist, Alan Willis, was then replaced in December 1962 by Terry Carson (1946–1991).
Their debut single was "Be My Girl" (1963), written by group members Steve McLaren and Eddie Parry. "Be My Girl", released by Decca Records reached number 46 in the UK Singles Chart in August 1963. Offered the opportunity to record Lennon–McCartney's "All My Loving", they declined and lost the potential momentum to make a bigger impact on the burgeoning Merseybeat scene. Their next release was a cover version of Rufus Thomas' "Walking the Dog", with the B-side "You Don't Know What Love Is", written by Ben E. King. It was released in May 1964, and peaked at number 36 in the UK chart. The Dennisons final single release was "Nobody Like Me Baby", in November 1964.
Other tracks they recorded included "Little Latin Lupe Lu", "Devoted to You", "You Better Move On", "Lucy (You Sure Did It This Time)", "My Girl" and "Tutti Frutti". Their lead singer, Eddie Parry (1946–1995), left the group in March 1965. The Dennisons continued as a four piece before disbanding in 1967.
1n 1991, they reunited to perform at a memorial concert for Terry Carson. Former drummer Clive Hornby recorded a solo album, This Is Your Life in 1997, which included musical contributions from fellow former Dennisons, Steve McLaren (1946–2007) and Ray Scragg (born Raymond Arthur Scragg, 4 August 1946, Walton, Liverpool, Lancashire died 7 February 2001). Scragg's death from lung cancer in February 2001 ended all final attempts to relive former days.

# Ao: The Last Hunter
Ao: The Last Hunter (French: Ao, le dernier Néandertal) is a 2010 French prehistoric paleoanthropological fiction film directed by Jacques Malaterre. It is loosely based on the first novel of the Marc Klapczynski trilogy Aô, l'homme ancien (2010).
## Plot
The film takes place approximately 30,000 years BP, and focuses on the period of co-existence between Neanderthals and Cro-Magnons, where the two populations shared some parts of the Eurasian landscape.
The film begins in Northern Siberia with two Neanderthals; Aō (Simon Paul Sutton) and Boorh (Craig Morris) delivering food to their clan after hunting herbivores (likely elk). Once they reach their cave, they realize that Ao's wife is in the midst of giving birth to their daughter, whom Ao names Néā. One day, a polar bear attacks and kills a man guarding their cave. Ao and Boorh go after it to avenge their fellow hunter. Ao successfully kills the bear, but Boorh is killed in the process. After returning from the hunt, Ao finds that his clan, including his wife and their young Néa, were massacred in their cave (for a reason which shall go unknown) by the anatomically modern humans that had arrived on the landscape. While Ao mourns for his family, a band of Cro-Magnon hunters attack him. Ao manages to overpower them, but decides to spare their lives and allow them to escape. As Ao continues to mourn, he plays his bone flute and reminisces about his childhood with his original clan near the ocean in Southern Iberia. With his clan dead, Ao decides to leave his outpost in the frigid, barren tundra in Siberia, to reunite with his brother Oā in the South where he was born. Throughout his journey, he sees visions of his twin brother playing a log drum.
During the course of his travel near Northern Europe, Ao falls into a dug pit covered in leaves while hunting a wild boar. He encounters a hunting party of Cro-Magnon hunters who help him out, but then Ao is knocked out cold by the head woman Unāk (Vesela Kazakova). Ao is held captive by the band of modern humans who participate in human sacrifices. They lock him inside a storage room filled with dead bodies from past sacrifices. He encounters a pregnant Homo Sapiens woman from a different tribe, named Āki (Aruna Shields). Aki and her husband Āka (Yavor Vesselinov) were stolen from their homeland. Aka is executed (or sacrificed) by the headman Agūk (Helmi Dridi) with the powerless Aki looking on, screaming for him. After witnessing Aka’s murder, Ao decides to escape with the help of a wasp's nest he found on a tree within his enemies' campsite. Covering himself with mud after breaking from his bonds, he knocks off the wasp's nest to let the angry swarm distract his enemies long enough for him to escape. Unbeknownst to him, Aki followed him quietly until he falls asleep in a cave. Ao wakes up after hearing strange sounds. Afraid that it might be his pursuers, he puts out his campfire and goes to investigate. He discovers Aki moaning and screaming in a secluded part of the cave as she is giving birth to her daughter Wāmā. Witnessing this, Ao believes that the newborn infant is the reincarnation of his deceased daughter, Néa. Both stay in the cave for a short while but remain distant from the other. As Aki observes Ao's interest in her daughter, not understanding why due to the language barrier, she grows wary of Ao. In the middle of the night, Ao takes Wama while Aki is sleeping. In the morning, The distressed Aki vows to take back her daughter and follows Ao’s trail to retrieve her stolen child. Ao does his best to care for the infant, but realizes he can’t keep a newborn alive without her mother to breastfeed Wama. Aki arrives at Ao’s resting place and hides behind a hill, waiting for the right time to attack Ao. Unbeknownst to both of them, Agūk, Unāk, and a handful of the tribe’s warriors are on both their trails. While Ao is resting with Wama, Aki runs towards him with her spear in order to kill him. Ao manages to evade her strike by rolling away. Aki then grabs her baby and bolts, but her path is blocked by Agūk and his men. As Ao fights off the warriors, Aki squares off with Unāk who knocks her out. Before she can kill Aki and the baby, Ao comes to her and Wama’s defense and knocks Unāk unconscious. Agūk sees this and takes Ao head on, fist to fist. The stronger Neanderthal man wins the fight and sends the defeated warriors retreating.
After defeating the marauding Cro-Magnon warriors, Ao continues his journey to his birthplace with a captive Aki. Realizing Wama needs her mother in order to stay alive, Ao allows Aki to feed her daughter, but he keeps the baby close to him at all times as to keep Aki from running off with the baby. He pushes Aki in front of him as they travel so he can keep an eye on her. Over time, Ao becomes very ill. As the pair trek through a swampy area, Ao has a coughing spell and nearly drowns in the water. Aki manages to grab Wama from Ao, but he holds onto her and bids her to dry land. As they make it to the shore, Ao is even sicker and too weak to stop Aki from fleeing with her child. She heads back into the water in the direction of her homeland, but then, out of pity for the gravely ill stranger, decides not to leave Ao to die, who is now collapsed on the ground. Aki carries the unconscious man to an abandoned campsite and begins to nurse Ao back to health. In the camp, she finds a spear thrower as well as other provisions she will need. Some time later, Ao awakes feeling better than ever thanks to Aki’s care and shows more respect towards the woman. On the same day. Aguk’s men catch up with them and chase the pair into a cave with multiple passages. Aki manages to kill one with her spear thrower and Ao manages to kill the rest in a narrow tunnel by stuffing the tiny exit with a burning piece of his polar bear pelt, thus suffocating the warriors who are unable to crawl back out. Aki guides Ao into a chamber decorated with cave drawings. Ao, who has never seen cave drawings before, mistakes a painting for a real rhinoceros, but Aki reassures him it’s just a painting. She teaches him how to make handprints by spitting yellow paint over her hand to creat a negative handprint and then dips his hand in red paint. She then places it on top of her painting. This painting lesson plants the seeds for their unconventional relationship to grow. Aki and Ao, over time, learn to understand each other as well as trust one another. Aki even teaches him how to use the spear thrower and allows him to bond with Wama, whom he still calls Nēa.
As they reach Central Europe, they come across a gigantic cavern filled with mammoth skeletons which are perfectly intact and are used as housings by another Cro-Magnon tribe. The mammoth bone housings are filled with human skulls; Neanderthal skulls. While Ao investigates the camp, Aki washes herself in a shallow pool, naked. Ao gets aroused by this and wants to mate with her, but she rejects him. Before anything can happen, an old Neanderthal man who was watching them knocks Ao out. The old man is clearly alone. He also appears to be losing his grip on sanity as he seems desperate for companionship. When Ao wakes up, the small tribe has come back with their recent hunt. The old man goes up to them in hopes to be welcomed in. He is rejected, however, due to his strange features and his odd behavior. Aki introduces herself to the leader and is welcomed into the tribe along with Wama. The people of the tribe then take offense to Ao’s presence and throw stones at him. Aki, feeling betrayed by Ao’s advances towards her, angrily throws his polar bear wrap at him and screams at him to leave and that Wama belongs to her. Realizing what he did to her was wrong and that Wama is not really Nēa, Ao slowly stumbles out of the cave in shame along with the old man who also throws stones at him during the night, above the tribe's cavern. Ao camps for the night. The old man hands Ao a Neanderthal skull and then laughs maniacally as he slips into the dark. Ao then sadly plays his bone flute to the vision of Oa playing his log drum. Back at the camp, Aki is almost taken advantage of by the tribe leader. She fights him off and storms out of the tent with her baby. She feels deep regret for sending Ao away and misses him. Ao, out of frustration and yearning for Aki, throws his polar bear wrap down a shaft which drops back down into the camp in front of Aki. Aki sadly rests on top of it to feel close to Ao. In the morning, Aki notices that the younger members of the tribe as well as the old man have taken Ao’s wrap and are reenacting the other day's events. She feels resentment towards the tribe and decides to chase after Ao. Ao, trying to catch a rabbit, is surprised by Aki’s return, but is still conflicted about her intentions. He tries to walk away from her, but Aki desperately runs after him while begging him not to go without her. She even places Wama in his arms in order to show she forgives him. The two then reconcile and continue their journey.
Ao and Aki make their way through a vast desert towards Southern Iberia, Ao’s homeland. Further into the trip, the pair come across a wild steppe horse herd. With the desert heat taking its toll on them, Aki and Ao take a rest to feed Wama, but Aki discovers she lost her milk due to dehydration. With no way to keep Wama alive, Aki slips into despair and Ao is wracked with fear for Aki and the baby. Out of desperation, Ao goes off to look for a way to save them and finds a mare with a nursing colt. Ao is able to coerce the animals to where Aki is. The two are able to feed Wama as well as themselves with the mare's milk. When they’ve had their fill, Ao thanks the mare and sends the animals off. As Aki and Ao watch the horses leave, it starts to rain. During the thunderstorm, the two make love in the rain and become a mated pair.
As they reach Southern Europe, Ao finally finds his birthplace. However, he soon learns that his twin brother Oa, along with his entire clan, have already been consumed by an illness that had entered their cave. Ao is, at least symbolically, the sole survivor of the Neanderthals. Ao is grief stricken and contemplates jumping from a cliff to his death. Aki, desperate to stop him, tells him that Nēa needs him. As he turns to go to her, a gust of wind pushes him over the side while Aki screams in despair; believing he has fallen to his death. Ao, however, has held on to edge and manages to pull himself back up. Ao rushes to Aki and Wama, and the couple happily embrace and kiss.
Four years later, ostracized by other tribes, Ao and Aki reach Southern Iberia to settle and raise their family in solitude, close to the last known signs of Neanderthal life on Earth. Ao is carrying the now four-year old child renamed Nēa on his shoulders towards the beach with Aki walking behind them, heavily pregnant with Ao's child, Nēa’s half-sibling. As the small family enjoy relaxing on the rocky beach, both Ao and Nėa rest their heads on Aki’s large belly, listening to the heartbeat of the unborn child.

'''Ao: The Last Hunter''' ({{langx|fr|Ao, le dernier Néandertal}}) is a 2010 French [[prehistoric fiction|prehistoric paleoanthropological fiction]] film directed by [[Jacques Malaterre]].

==Plot==
The film takes place approximately 30,000 years [[Before Present|BP]], and focuses on the period of co-existence between [[Neanderthals]] and [[Cro-Magnons]], where the two populations shared some parts of the Eurasian landscape.
The film begins in [[Siberia|Northern Siberia]] with two Neanderthals; ''Aō'' (Simon Paul Sutton) and ''Boorh'' (Craig Morris) delivering food to their clan after hunting herbivores (likely elk). Once they reach their cave, they realize that Ao's wife is in the midst of giving birth to their daughter, whom Ao names ''Néā''. One day, a polar bear attacks and kills a man guarding their cave. Ao and Boorh go after it to avenge their fellow hunter. Ao successfully kills the bear, but Boorh is killed in the process. After returning from the hunt, Ao finds that his clan, including his wife and their young Néa, were massacred in their cave (for a reason which shall go unknown) by the anatomically modern humans that had arrived on the landscape. While Ao mourns for his family, a band of Cro-Magnon hunters attack him. Ao manages to overpower them, but decides to spare their lives and allow them to escape. As Ao continues to mourn, he plays his bone flute and reminisces about his childhood with his original clan near the ocean in Southern Iberia. With his clan dead, Ao decides to leave his outpost in the frigid, barren tundra in Siberia, to reunite with his brother ''Oā'' in the South where he was born. Throughout his journey, he sees visions of his twin brother playing a log drum.
During the course of his travel near Northern Europe, Ao falls into a dug pit covered in leaves while hunting a wild boar. He encounters a hunting party of Cro-Magnon hunters who help him out, but then Ao is knocked out cold by the head woman ''Unāk'' (Vesela Kazakova). Ao is held captive by the band of modern humans who participate in human sacrifices. They lock him inside a storage room filled with dead bodies from past sacrifices. He encounters a pregnant Homo Sapiens woman from a different tribe, named ''Āki'' ([[Aruna Shields]]). Aki and her husband ''Āka <big>(</big>''Yavor Vesselinov) were stolen from their homeland. Aka is executed (or sacrificed) by the headman ''Agūk'' (Helmi Dridi) with the powerless Aki looking on, screaming for him. After witnessing Aka’s murder, Ao decides to escape with the help of a wasp's nest he found on a tree within his enemies' campsite. Covering himself with mud after breaking from his bonds, he knocks off the wasp's nest to let the angry swarm distract his enemies long enough for him to escape. Unbeknownst to him, Aki followed him quietly until he falls asleep in a cave. Ao wakes up after hearing strange sounds. Afraid that it might be his pursuers, he puts out his campfire and goes to investigate. He discovers Aki moaning and screaming in a secluded part of the cave as she is giving birth to her daughter ''Wāmā''. Witnessing this, Ao believes that the newborn infant is the reincarnation of his deceased daughter, Néa. Both stay in the cave for a short while but remain distant from the other. As Aki observes Ao's interest in her daughter, not understanding why due to the language barrier, she grows wary of Ao. In the middle of the night, Ao takes Wama while Aki is sleeping. In the morning, The distressed Aki vows to take back her daughter and follows Ao’s trail to retrieve her stolen child. Ao does his best to care for the infant, but realizes he can’t keep a newborn alive without her mother to breastfeed Wama. Aki arrives at Ao’s resting place and hides behind a hill, waiting for the right time to attack Ao. Unbeknownst to both of them, Agūk, Unāk, and a handful of the tribe’s warriors are on both their trails. While Ao is resting with Wama, Aki runs towards him with her spear in order to kill him. Ao manages to evade her strike by rolling away. Aki then grabs her baby and bolts, but her path is blocked by Agūk and his men. As Ao fights off the warriors, Aki squares off with Unāk who knocks her out. Before she can kill Aki and the baby, Ao comes to her and Wama’s defense and knocks Unāk unconscious. Agūk sees this and takes Ao head on, fist to fist. The stronger Neanderthal man wins the fight and sends the defeated warriors retreating.
After defeating the marauding Cro-Magnon warriors, Ao continues his journey to his birthplace with a captive Aki. Realizing Wama needs her mother in order to stay alive, Ao allows Aki to feed her daughter, but he keeps the baby close to him at all times as to keep Aki from running off with the baby. He pushes Aki in front of him as they travel so he can keep an eye on her. Over time, Ao becomes very ill. As the pair trek through a swampy area, Ao has a coughing spell and nearly drowns in the water. Aki manages to grab Wama from Ao, but he holds onto her and bids her to dry land. As they make it to the shore, Ao is even sicker and too weak to stop Aki from fleeing with her child. She heads back into the water in the direction of her homeland, but then, out of pity for the gravely ill stranger, decides not to leave Ao to die, who is now collapsed on the ground. Aki carries the unconscious man to an abandoned campsite and begins to nurse Ao back to health. In the camp, she finds a spear thrower as well as other provisions she will need. Some time later, Ao awakes feeling better than ever thanks to Aki’s care and shows more respect towards the woman. On the same day. Aguk’s men catch up with them and chase the pair into a cave with multiple passages. Aki manages to kill one with her spear thrower and Ao manages to kill the rest in a narrow tunnel by stuffing the tiny exit with a burning piece of his polar bear pelt, thus suffocating the warriors who are unable to crawl back out. Aki guides Ao into a chamber decorated with cave drawings. Ao, who has never seen cave drawings before, mistakes a painting for a real rhinoceros, but Aki reassures him it’s just a painting. She teaches him how to make handprints by spitting yellow paint over her hand to creat a negative handprint and then dips his hand in red paint. She then places it on top of her painting. This painting lesson plants the seeds for their unconventional relationship to grow. Aki and Ao, over time, learn to understand each other as well as trust one another. Aki even teaches him how to use the spear thrower and allows him to bond with Wama, whom he still calls Nēa.
As they reach Central Europe, they come across a gigantic cavern filled with mammoth skeletons which are perfectly intact and are used as housings by another Cro-Magnon tribe. The mammoth bone housings are filled with human skulls; Neanderthal skulls. While Ao investigates the camp, Aki washes herself in a shallow pool, naked. Ao gets aroused by this and wants to mate with her, but she rejects him. Before anything can happen, an old Neanderthal man who was watching them knocks Ao out. The old man is clearly alone. He also appears to be losing his grip on sanity as he seems desperate for companionship. When Ao wakes up, the small tribe has come back with their recent hunt. The old man goes up to them in hopes to be welcomed in. He is rejected, however, due to his strange features and his odd behavior. Aki introduces herself to the leader and is welcomed into the tribe along with Wama. The people of the tribe then take offense to Ao’s presence and throw stones at him. Aki, feeling betrayed by Ao’s advances towards her, angrily throws his polar bear wrap at him and screams at him to leave and that Wama belongs to her. Realizing what he did to her was wrong and that Wama is not really Nēa, Ao slowly stumbles out of the cave in shame along with the old man who also throws stones at him during the night, above the tribe's cavern. Ao camps for the night. The old man hands Ao a Neanderthal skull and then laughs maniacally as he slips into the dark. Ao then sadly plays his bone flute to the vision of Oa playing his log drum. Back at the camp, Aki is almost taken advantage of by the tribe leader. She fights him off and storms out of the tent with her baby. She feels deep regret for sending Ao away and misses him. Ao, out of frustration and yearning for Aki, throws his polar bear wrap down a shaft which drops back down into the camp in front of Aki. Aki sadly rests on top of it to feel close to Ao. In the morning, Aki notices that the younger members of the tribe as well as the old man have taken Ao’s wrap and are reenacting the other day's events. She feels resentment towards the tribe and decides to chase after Ao. Ao, trying to catch a rabbit, is surprised by Aki’s return, but is still conflicted about her intentions. He tries to walk away from her, but Aki desperately runs after him while begging him not to go without her. She even places Wama in his arms in order to show she forgives him. The two then reconcile and continue their journey.

# Murtoa railway station
Murtoa was a disused railway station on the Serviceton railway line. The station is no longer used as a passenger stop; it is however still an important location for Pacific National as it is where the Hopetoun line junctioned off the main line.
The station is now one of three attractions that make up the Murtoa Museum Precinct, along with the Water Tower Museum and Concordia Cottage.
The station has been brought back to its former glory and is still occasionally used by specialist train trips as a stop.
Inside is a range of memorabilia from its working days and a large model of the station and surrounds at their peak.
The pedestrian bridge over the line was rescued by local residents and is now a feature at nearby Rabl Park.
Much of the station was extensively altered in the 1980s, following the introduction of CTC between Ararat and Serviceton. The signal box was abolished, the number of roads in the yard was reduced and the local signal panel was only switched in if needed, with the former staff depot closing by the end of 1988. Also during 1988, the former turntable was moved to Dimboola.
The station used to have a dock platform for the Hopetoun branch. People in Murtoa have called on The Overland, the interstate rail journey that runs from Adelaide to Melbourne, to make Murtoa an additional stop for the train service.

'''Murtoa''' was a disused railway station on the [[Serviceton railway line]]. The station is no longer used as a passenger stop; it is however still an important location for [[Pacific National]] as it is where the [[Hopetoun railway line|Hopetoun line]] junctioned off the main line.<ref>{{Cite web|date=2014-08-11|title=Plan to restore railway station|url=https://www.murtoa.net/2014/08/plan-to-restore-railway-station|access-date=2021-08-22|website=Murtoa Progress Association|language=en}}</ref>
The station is now one of three attractions that make up the Murtoa Museum Precinct, along with the Water Tower Museum and Concordia Cottage.
The station has been brought back to its former glory and is still occasionally used by specialist train trips as a stop.
Inside is a range of memorabilia from its working days and a large model of the station and surrounds at their peak.
The pedestrian bridge over the line was rescued by local residents and is now a feature at nearby Rabl Park.
Much of the station was extensively altered in the 1980s, following the introduction of [[Centralized traffic control|CTC]] between [[Ararat railway station|Ararat]] and [[Serviceton railway station|Serviceton]]. The signal box was abolished, the number of roads in the yard was reduced and the local signal panel was only switched in if needed,<ref>{{cite magazine|date=April 1980|title=Works|magazine=Newsrail|publisher=Australian Railway Historical Society|page=76}}</ref> with the former staff depot closing by the end of 1988.<ref name="newsrail">{{cite magazine|date=October 1988|title=Works|magazine=Newsrail|publisher=Australian Railway Historical Society|page=314}}</ref> Also during 1988, the former [[Railway turntable|turntable]] was moved to [[Dimboola railway station|Dimboola]].<ref name="newsrail"/>
The station used to have a dock platform for the Hopetoun branch. People in [[Murtoa, Victoria|Murtoa]] have called on ''[[The Overland]]'', the interstate rail journey that runs from [[Adelaide]] to [[Melbourne]], to make Murtoa an additional stop for the train service.{{Citation needed|date=July 2022}} {{By whom|date=July 2022}}

# Kiping
Kiping is a traditional Filipino leaf-shaped wafer made from glutinous rice. It originates from the city of Lucban, Quezon. It is celebrated annually in the Pahiyas Festival. It can be eaten grilled or fried and can be dipped in sugar, vinegar, or other sauces.
## Etymology
The name kiping is an alternate form of kinipi, meaning "pressed", from the verb kipi, "to press dough to squeeze out the water".
## Description
Kiping is characteristically leaf-shaped. It is made with molds made from real leaves of various plants that are non-toxic and do not have unusual tastes. The most commonly used are leaves from the kabal tree, Fagraea racemosa. Other plants used include coffee, talisay (Terminalia catappa), cacao, antipolo (Artocarpus blancoi), and saba banana.
The rice paste is made from glutinous rice (usually older harvests) that have been soaked for a few hours before being ground into a paste. It is mixed with water, a little bit of coarse salt, and various food dyes. The paste is then spread on the chosen leaf molds and steamed for around half an hour. After steaming, the leaves are then air-dried in shade and peeled off. They are piled on top of each other and weighted down for half a day. They are then separated and dried again, then again compressed under a weight for another half day. They are traditionally hung on strings for storage. There is a traditional superstition that in order to prevent the kiping from cracking, silence must be observed during the entire preparation.
Kiping is usually eaten grilled or fried. It can be dipped in sugar or vinegar or other kinds of dips. Kiping can also be used as decorations, especially during the Pahiyas Festival, where bundles of kiping are shaped into colorful chandeliers (called arangya), giant flowers, and other ornaments. These are used to decorate individual houses which are then judged by festival organizers.
## Similar dishes
Kiping is also another name for kabkab, a similar cassava-based wafer from other parts of the country.

It can be eaten grilled or fried and can be dipped in sugar, vinegar, or other sauces.<ref>{{cite web |title=KIPING ng Lucban |url=http://jelalee.blogspot.com/2010/04/claiming-of-graduation-gown.html |website=Star: Piece of Me |date=April 22, 2010 |access-date=March 26, 2019}}</ref>
==Etymology==
The name ''kiping'' is an alternate form of ''kinipi'', meaning "pressed", from the verb ''kipi'', "to press dough to squeeze out the water".<ref>{{cite web |title=Quezon: Kiping the Pahiyas Tradition in Lucban |url=https://www.ironwulf.net/2009/05/19/quezon-lucban-san-isidro-pahiyas-festival/ |website=Ironwulf En Route |date=May 18, 2009 |access-date=March 26, 2019}}</ref>
==Description==
[[File:Fried Kiping Vendor.jpg|thumb|left|A vendor selling colorful fried kiping]]
Kiping is characteristically leaf-shaped. It is made with molds made from real leaves of various plants that are non-toxic and do not have unusual tastes. The most commonly used are leaves from the kabal tree, ''[[Fagraea racemosa]]''. Other plants used include [[coffee tree|coffee]], talisay (''[[Terminalia catappa]]''), [[cacao tree|cacao]], antipolo (''[[Artocarpus blancoi]]''), and [[saba banana]].<ref name="pfc">{{cite web |title=Kiping Lucban San Isidro Pahiyas Festival > Kiping |url=http://www.pahiyasfestival.com/2017/kiping/ |website=PahiyasFestival.com |access-date=March 26, 2019}}</ref><ref name="wq">{{cite web |title=Kiping Completes Lucban Pahiyas Festival |url=http://www.wowquezon.com/features/festivals/kiping-completes-lucban-pahiyas-festival/ |website=WowQuezon.com |access-date=March 26, 2019}}</ref>
The rice paste is made from [[glutinous rice]] (usually older harvests) that have been soaked for a few hours before being ground into a paste. It is mixed with water, a little bit of coarse salt, and various food dyes. The paste is then spread on the chosen leaf molds and [[steaming|steamed]] for around half an hour. After steaming, the leaves are then air-dried in shade and peeled off. They are piled on top of each other and weighted down for half a day. They are then separated and dried again, then again compressed under a weight for another half day. They are traditionally hung on strings for storage. There is a traditional superstition that in order to prevent the kiping from cracking, silence must be observed during the entire preparation.<ref name="pfc"/><ref name="wq"/>
Kiping is usually eaten grilled or fried. It can be dipped in sugar or vinegar or other kinds of dips. Kiping can also be used as decorations, especially during the [[Pahiyas Festival]], where bundles of kiping are shaped into colorful chandeliers (called ''arangya''), giant flowers, and other ornaments. These are used to decorate individual houses which are then judged by festival organizers.<ref>{{cite web |title=The Kiping of Pahiyas |url=https://www.choosephilippines.com/eat/local-flavors/683/The-Kiping-of-Pahiyas |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131003152550/http://www.choosephilippines.com/eat/local-flavors/683/The-Kiping-of-Pahiyas/ |url-status=usurped |archive-date=October 3, 2013 |website=ChoosePhilippines |access-date=March 26, 2019}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |title=Lucban and its Pahiyas |url=https://boyplakwatsa.com/tag/kiping/ |website=Lakwatsa |date=April 2014 |access-date=March 26, 2019}}</ref><ref name="pdi">{{cite news |last1=Mallari |first1=Delfin T.

# Cromford Mill
Cromford Mill is the world's first water-powered cotton spinning mill, developed by Richard Arkwright in 1771 in Cromford, Derbyshire, England. The mill structure is classified as a Grade I listed building. It is now the centrepiece of the Derwent Valley Mills UNESCO World Heritage Site, and is a multi-use visitor centre with shops, galleries, restaurants and cafes.
## History
Following the invention of the flying shuttle for weaving cotton in 1733, the demand for spun cotton increased enormously in England. Machines for carding and spinning had already been developed but were inefficient. Spun cotton was also produced by means of the spinning jenny but was insufficiently strong to form the warp of a fabric, for which it was the practice to use linen thread, producing a type of cloth known as fustian. In 1769, Richard Arkwright patented a water frame to use the extra power of a water mill after he had set up a horse-powered mill in Nottingham.
He chose the site at Cromford because it had year-round supply of warm water from the Cromford Sough which drained water from nearby Wirksworth lead mines, together with Bonsall Brook. Here he built a five-storey mill, with the backing of Jedediah Strutt (whom he met in a Nottingham bank via Ichabod Wright), Samuel Need and John Smalley. Starting in 1772, he ran the mills day and night with two twelve-hour shifts.
He started with 200 workers, more than the locality could provide, so he built housing for them nearby, one of the first manufacturers to do so. Most of the employees were women and children, the youngest being only seven years old. Later, the minimum age was raised to ten and the children were given six hours of education a week, so that they could do the record-keeping that their illiterate parents could not.
A large part of the village was built to house the mill workers. Stuart Fisher states that these are now considered to be "the first factory housing development in the world". Employees were provided with shops, pubs, chapels and a school.
The gate to Cromford Mill was shut at precisely 6 am and 6 pm every day, and any worker who failed to get through it not only lost a day's pay but also was fined another day's pay.
### Cromford dollars
In 1801 and 1802, during a national shortage of silver, Spanish real coins were overstamped for use as coinage at Cromford.
### Closure and further use
The cotton mill ceased operation in the 19th century and the buildings were used for other purposes, finally a dyeing plant. In 1979, the Grade I listed site was bought by the Arkwright Society, who began the long task of restoring it to its original state.
The importance of this site is not that it was the first but that it was the first successful cotton spinning factory. It showed unequivocally the way ahead and was widely emulated.
### World Heritage Site
The Cromford mill complex, owned and being restored by the Arkwright Society, was declared by Historic England as "one of the country’s 100 irreplaceable sites". In 2018, the "Cromford Mills Creative Cluster and World Heritage Site Gateway Project" was listed as a finalist for the "Best Major Regeneration of a Historic Building or Place" in the Historic England Angel Awards.
In 2019, the Arkwright Society employed 100 people; by that time, the restoration expenditure had reached £48 million.
The mill and other buildings are open to the public every day, and has attracted visitors from all over the world. Facilities include a visitors' centre, shops and a café.
The nearby Cromford Canal towpath to High Peak Junction, and onwards towards Ambergate, is listed as a Biological Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI).
In 2024 the site has been used as a venue for BBC One's Antiques Roadshow.
### Restoration
#### Condition in 1995
The 1771 building had been reduced by two storeys in 1929. Access was forbidden due to the toxic residue from the 20th-century paintmaking usage; the later tank with its toxic sediment obscured the foundations of the 1775 mill and the breast-shot waterwheel chamber. Only one remaining mill building was usable and suitable for guided tours.
- The original 1771 mill seen on the approach along Mill Road from the village
- The first mill viewed from the yard in 1995
- The tank over the waterwheel chamber
- The usable mill building undergoing work to replace many stone lintels and reinstate the original Georgian windows
#### Restoration in progress 2009
- Existing three of five storeys showing the extent of the original mill. Initially there was an undershot waterwheel to the right outside of the picture.
- The 1771 mill as extended in 1785
- The foundations of the 1775 mill, which was destroyed by fire in 1890, with wheel chamber on the right
- Weavers' housing, North Street, Cromford
#### Restoration of hydropower capacity
Installation of a water wheel, accompanied by a modern 20 kW hydro-turbine to power the buildings, was approved in 2022.
## Buildings and structures
### Waterworks
Originally the sough drained into the brook back in the village, and both powered the original mill. The sough was separated and brought along a channel on the south side of Mill Road to the aqueduct. Both then supplied the second mill. In 1785 the mill was extended to its present length with a culvert beneath for the Bonsall Brook. The sough was separated from the brook and brought from the village along the south side of Mill Lane which it crossed by way of the aqueduct to a new overshot wheel. A complicated set of channels and sluices controlled the supply to the mill, or, on Sundays to the canal, with the surplus draining into the river.
Arkwright's use of the Bonsall Brook and Cromford Sough for his mills had been opposed by other local water users in a number of legal cases. In 1772, however, a new sough, Meerbrook Sough, had been started nearby, some 30m lower than Cromford Sough. By 1813 the new sough was affecting the water volumes in Cromford Sough, leading Arkwright's son (also Richard Arkwright) and the other users to negotiate with the Meerbrook proprietors to place stop boards so as to keep Cromford water levels up. Further legal cases followed, but by 1836 the stop boards had decayed and the negotiated leases had expired, so Cromford Sough was again reduced in flow. Finally Arkwright sued for his water in a landmark legal suit, but the case was lost, and soon after 1847 the Cromford Mills were obliged to cease cotton manufacturing, being turned over to other uses.

- Cromford Pond built in 1785 as the mill pound
### Housing
The mill manager had a house on site. Although the first workers were brought in from outside the area, workers' housing was later built in Cromford.
### Cromford Canal and wharf
The opening of the Cromford Canal and the associated Cromford Wharf in 1793 linked Arkwright's Mill to the major Midland and northern cities, although use of the canal was to decline as traffic moved onto the railways.
## Machinery
### Water frame
Initially the first stage of the process was hand carding, but in 1775 he took out a second patent for a water-powered carding machine and this led to increased output and the fame of his factory rapidly spread. He was soon building further mills on this site and others and eventually employed 1,000 workers at Cromford. Many other mills were built under licence, including mills in Lancashire, Scotland and Germany. Samuel Slater, an apprentice of Jedediah Strutt, took the secrets of Arkwright's machines to Pawtucket, Rhode Island, USA, where he founded a cotton industry. Arkwright's success led to his patents being challenged in court and his second patent was overturned as having no originality. Nonetheless, by the time of his death in 1792 he was the wealthiest untitled person in Britain.
Cromford Mill has commissioned a replica water frame which was installed in April 2013. Considerable problems occurred in obtaining suitable roving, which had to be a low-twist 0.8 count cotton: there are no companies spinning cotton today in the United Kingdom. Roving was supplied eventually by Rieter in Switzerland, who had some experimental stock. Rieter are the world's largest manufacturer of textile manufacturing machines.

The opening of the [[Cromford Canal]] and the associated [[Cromford Wharf]] in 1793 linked Arkwright's Mill to the major Midland and northern cities, although use of the canal was to decline as traffic moved onto the railways.<ref name="derbysguide">{{cite web |url=http://www.derbyshireguide.co.uk/travel/cromford.htm |title=Cromford Mill and Sir Richard Arkwright |publisher=Derbyshire Guide website |access-date=5 August 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120721070509/http://www.derbyshireguide.co.uk/travel/cromford.htm |archive-date=21 July 2012 |url-status=dead }}</ref>

===Water frame===
Initially the first stage of the process was hand carding, but in 1775 he took out a second patent for a water-powered carding machine and this led to increased output and the fame of his factory rapidly spread. He was soon building further mills on this site and others and eventually employed 1,000 workers at Cromford. Many other mills were built under licence, including mills in Lancashire, Scotland and Germany. [[Samuel Slater]], an apprentice of Jedediah Strutt, took the secrets of Arkwright's machines to [[Pawtucket, Rhode Island]],<ref name="bbc">{{cite web |url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-derbyshire-15002318 |title=Samuel Slater: American hero or British traitor? |first=Neil |last=Heath |publisher=BBC News |date=22 September 2011 |access-date=7 December 2019}}</ref> USA,<ref name="slater">{{cite web |url=https://www.facebook.com/slater.mill |title=Old Slater Mill National Historic Landmark |website=[[Facebook]] |type=Facebook page |access-date=7 December 2019}}</ref> where he founded a cotton industry.

Cromford Mill has commissioned a replica water frame which was installed in April 2013. Considerable problems occurred in obtaining suitable roving, which had to be a low-twist 0.8 count cotton: there are no companies spinning cotton today in the United Kingdom. Roving was supplied eventually by Rieter in Switzerland, who had some experimental stock. Rieter are the world's largest manufacturer of textile manufacturing machines.<ref name="roving">{{cite web |url=http://www.arkwrightsociety.org.uk/content/cotton-rovings-saga |title=The Cotton Rovings Saga |work=Sir Richard Arkwright's Cromford Mills |publisher=Arkwright Society |date=March 2013 |access-date=5 August 2013 |archive-url=https://archive.today/20130505134126/http://www.arkwrightsociety.org.uk/content/cotton-rovings-saga |archive-date=5 May 2013 |url-status=dead }}</ref>

# Dancing Dolls
Dancing Dolls are a Japanese female idol group. The group originally consisted of five childhood friends from Osaka: Hono (Honoka Kadomoto - 門元穂果), Mii (Misaki Nakajima - 中島弥咲), Misaki (Misaki Sakurada - 桜田美咲), and twins Asuka (Asuka Nagayama - 永山飛鳥) and Kyoka (Kyouka Nagayama - 永山杏佳).
## History
The group was formed in Osaka by childhood friends. They started performing in the street in Osaka Castle Park, which is a local haven for street performances. The girls wrote and composed their own songs; Misaki choreographed the dances. Dancing Dolls also began uploading dance covers to video sharing websites Nico Nico Douga and YouTube and achieved some notability there. Their videos became popular, and totaled over 10 million views by the time of their professional debut in 2012.
Dancing Dolls were signed by Sony Music Entertainment Japan and on September 12, 2012, released their debut single, titled "Touch -A.S.A.P.- / Shanghai Darling". At the time, the group's average age was 16. The single reached the 38th place in the Oricon Weekly Singles Chart. Also, the CD single was preceded by "Shanghai Darling", which was released on August 1 for digital download and peaked at the 8th spot in the daily Recochoku chart. The song "Touch -A.S.A.P-" is a cover of a theme song from the anime Touch, originally sung by Yoshimi Iwasaki and released as a single in 1985. They too made a cover of ECHO, a single by Circrush who is sung by Megpoid English, what is the English version of Megpoid.
In May 2014, the twin sisters Kyoka and Asuka left the group and Dancing Dolls became inactive for several months.
At the end of January 2015, Miu and Kanon were recruited as new Dancing Dolls members. Both girls have started dance practice and song recording. The staff of the idol group published a picture of the new members and a video in which their faces are hidden in order to keep the identities of the new members a mystery until February 14. They were officially introduced and made their debut during Dancing Dolls’ live performance on February 14 in Tokyo. At the same time, they revealed that their new single My Way / Love Me, Love Me is planned to be released on March 25, 2015. This is the group's first album in 10 months with new members Miu and Kanon. The next Dancing Dolls’ single features a cover of the song Melo Melo Bakkyun sung by Miu and Kanon.
They haven't officially disbanded, but haven't been active since 2015 and members have focused on pursuing other activities. In 2019 Mii released a solo album, HIME.

# Dairy Shorthorn
The Dairy Shorthorn is a British breed of dairy cattle.: 132 : 59 It derives from the Shorthorn cattle of Teesside, in the North Riding of Yorkshire and in Northumbria (now divided between County Durham and Northumberland) in north-eastern England. The Shorthorn was for this reason at first known as the Durham or Teeswater.
Selective breeding for a dairy type began in the late eighteenth century.: 162 This is known as the Dairy Shorthorn in the United Kingdom, Ireland, Australia and South Africa, and as the Milking Shorthorn in Canada, New Zealand and the United States. The Illawarra Shorthorn of Australia is largely descended from the Dairy Shorthorn.
Worldwide, the conservation status of the Dairy Shorthorn, the Illawarra Shorthorn and the Milking Shorthorn is "not at risk".: 144 In the United Kingdom the small remainder of the breed not affected by indiscriminate cross-breeding in the twentieth century is known as the Dairy Shorthorn (Original Population).: 163 : 132 It is critically endangered. Both it and the Northern Dairy Shorthorn are listed as "priority" – the highest category of risk – on the watchlist of the Rare Breeds Survival Trust.
In the nineteenth century the Durham – as it was then usually known – was very extensively used for cross-breeding in many countries of the world; it has contributed to the development of more than forty different breeds.
## History
Short-horned cattle of good quality are documented on the Yorkshire estates of the Dukes and Earls of Northumberland in the late sixteenth century.: 59 The first significant attempts at selective breeding of these cattle were made by Charles and Robert Colling in County Durham, who based their work on that of Robert Bakewell of Dishley, in Leicestershire.: 59 The principal work of selection for dairy qualities in the Durham/Shorthorn was done in the early nineteenth century by Thomas Bates of Kirklevington (now in Stockton-on-Tees, North Yorkshire), building principally on stock bought from the Colling brothers.: 162 A herd-book for all types of Shorthorn cattle – the Coates Herd Book – was begun by George Coates in 1822,: 59 and initially listed 850 cows and 710 bulls; it was later taken over by the breed society, the Shorthorn Society of Great Britain and Ireland, which was formed in 1874. Thomas Bates's herd was auctioned off piecemeal in 1850, which led to an expansion of interest in cattle of this type.: 163 For the next hundred years the Shorthorn held a dominant position in British agriculture: in 1937–1938, just before the outbreak of the Second World War, the number of Shorthorn bulls registered with the Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries was 23 730, not far from double the number of all registered bulls of other cattle breeds (12 917). Breed numbers reached a peak in 1949, after which increasing competition from the Friesian caused them to decline rapidly. The number of registered bulls, already much lower than before the war at about 35% of the national total in 1949, fell to little over 10% in 1960.: 163 Separate sections for beef and dairy strains within the Shorthorn breed were created in 1958.
In 1969 the breed society approved a programme of cross-breeding of the Dairy Shorthorn with a variety of other European breeds. Initially these were the Danish Red, the Meuse-Rhine-Yssel, the Red Friesian, the Red Holstein and the Simmental;: 132 later, introgression from Angeln, Ayrshire, Norwegian Red and Swedish Red-and-White was also permitted, as was the use of any bull that the Society had approved. Animals with no more than 25% Shorthorn heritage could be registered in the Dairy Shorthorn herd-book.: 163 The programme led to the development of a new composite breed, the Blended Red-and-White Shorthorn. It also led to the virtual extinction of the Dairy Shorthorn: by about 2009 there fewer than 100 breeding cows, and by 2012 there were no more than 50; in that year six purebred calves were added to the herd-book. The remnants of the breed were renamed to Dairy Shorthorn (Original Population): 163 : 132 It is a critically endangered breed; both it and the Northern Dairy Shorthorn are listed as "priority" – the highest category of risk – on the watchlist of the Rare Breeds Survival Trust.
## In other countries
Shorthorns of both beef and dairy type were first exported to Maryland and Virginia in the United States in 1783. With further imports through the 1800s the breed spread across the whole country.
The first dairy cows imported into New Zealand were Shorthorns, when in 1814, they were shipped from New South Wales. Shorthorns were used as draught animals in bullock teams, were good milkers and provided good meat. Shorthorn herds were established by the early 1840s, and for a long time Shorthorns were New Zealand's most popular cattle breed.
The breed has served as part of the foundation for other red dairy breeds, including Swedish Red cattle, Angeln cattle and Illawarra cattle in Australia (with some Ayrshire ancestry). The Ayrshire cattle breed was originally formed from dairy-type Shorthorn cattle in Scotland.
The Milking/Dairy Shorthorn breed has seen population growth in several countries in the past decade after many years of population decline. The Canadian Milking Shorthorn Society had their highest registration and membership totals in over 25 years in 2012. All major populations have seen an increase in interest in Milking Shorthorns by dairy producers, artificial insemination organisations, and crossbreeders.
## Characteristics
The Dairy Shorthorn is an average-sized breed, with mature cows averaging 140 cm (55 in) tall at the tailhead, and weighing 640 to 680 kg (1,410 to 1,500 lb). They are red, red with white markings, white, or roan. Red and white coat colour genes in purebred Milking Shorthorns are co-dominant, resulting in the roan coloration and unique colour patterns seen in the breed. Average milk production for the breed is about 7,000 kg (15,000 lb) in an annual lactation of 305 days, with 3.8% butterfat and 3.3% protein.
Milking/Dairy Shorthorn cattle are also known for high levels of fertility, grazing efficiency, and ease of management that result in the breed being highly suitable for low-input dairy operations in various production environments. Milking Shorthorns are known for their durability, longevity, and ease of calving as well as their versatility in a number of production environments.
### Original strains
There are small groups of Milking/Dairy Shorthorns that have not been affected by cross-breeding and so remain true to the conformation and production levels of Shorthorns from the early twentieth century. These include the Dairy Shorthorn population in Australia, the Native Milking Shorthorns of the United States and the Dairy Shorthorn (Original Population) in the United Kingdom. In some countries, these animals may be known as Dual Purpose Shorthorns.

# Jesus predicts his betrayal
Jesus predicts his betrayal three times in the New Testament, a narrative which is included in all four Canonical Gospels. This prediction takes place during the Last Supper in Matthew 26:24–25, Mark 14:18–21, Luke 22:21–23, and John 13:21–30.
Before that, in John 6:70, Jesus warns his disciples that one among them is "a devil". In the next verse, the author affirms that Jesus is talking about Judas Iscariot.
## Biblical narrative
In the Gospel of John, the prediction is preceded by the assertion in 13:17–18 that Jesus knew that Judas Iscariot would betray him: "If you know these things, blessed are you if you do them. I speak not of you all: I know whom I have chosen: but that the scripture may be fulfilled: He who eats my bread lifted up his heel against me." The blessing in John 13:17 is thus not directed at the Iscariot.
In Matthew 26:23–25, Jesus confirms the identity of the traitor:
"The Son of Man goes, even as it is written of him, but woe to that man through whom the Son of Man is betrayed! It would be better for that man if he had not been born." Judas, who betrayed him, answered: "It isn't me, is it, Rabbi?" He said to him: "You said it."
The attribution of the title Rabbi to Jesus by the Iscariot in this episode is unique to him, for one after another the other Apostles say "Surely it is not I, Lord", using the Lord (Kyrios) title. The Iscariot again calls Jesus Rabbi in Matthew 26:49 when he betrays him to the Sanhedrin in the Kiss of Judas episode.
## In popular culture
Italian Renaissance artist Leonardo da Vinci's The Last Supper depicts the precise moment following Jesus's dinner prediction. According to art historian Helen Gardner, this artwork is the most reproduced religious painting of all time.

# A. S. P. Woodhouse
Arthur Sutherland Pigott Woodhouse (1895–1964) was a Canadian professor of English at the University of Toronto, a leading authority on the works and times of the English Poet John Milton.
## Biography
Woodhouse was born in Port Hope, Ontario 27 September 1895. As a boy he spent 10 years in England, before returning to Ontario and completed his secondary education at the Collegiate Institute, Barrie. He attended University of Toronto and graduated with a B.A. in 1919. He was a Townsend Scholar at Harvard Graduate School and graduated with an A.M. in 1922. Although he studied for a doctorate, due to teaching commitments and a lack of interest in some of the modules he failed to obtain one from Harvard.
Woodhouse spent five years at the Department of English at the University of Manitoba where he taught eighteenth-century literature, the literature of Milton, Victorian Thought and the History of Criticism. In 1944 he joined the University of Toronto as head of both the college and the graduate departments. He edited The University of Toronto Quarterly for 13 years. He died on 31 October 1964.
Woodhouse was a leading authority on the work and times of the English Poet John Milton. He received many honours, including a Guggenheim Fellowship in 1942 and an honorary Dr. Litt. from Acadia University in 1948.

# The Old Willis Place
The Old Willis Place: A Ghost Story is a children's novel written by Mary Downing Hahn. It was first published in 2004 and is found in 9001 libraries.
## Synopsis
Diana and her younger brother Georgie live in the woods near Oak Hill Manor, known locally as the Old Willis Place after its last inhabitant, a cruel old woman named Lilian Willis. Diana and Georgie have many rules they must follow, including never going beyond the property's boundaries, never speaking to anyone, and never allowing themselves to be seen. The county hires caretakers to live in a mobile home on the Willis property; however, Diana and Georgie always manage to drive them away with their childish pranks.
Diana is excited to see that the latest caretaker has a daughter named Lissa, a lonely, imaginative girl whose mother died when she was five. Diana imagines becoming friends with Lissa, even though the rules forbid it. Soon after her arrival, Lissa goes exploring and is the verge of entering the house when Diana steps out of the woods to stop her. Diana is so filthy and ragged that Lissa mistakes her for a monster and flees.
Upset by Lissa's reaction, Diana writes an apology for frightening Lissa and asks if they can be friends. Lissa confides that she plans to sneak into the house and explore while her father is away, inviting Diana to go with her. Diana is wary, as entering the house is against the rules, but she is so desperate to have Lissa for a friend that she agrees. The following day, Diana and Lissa enter the Old Willis Place, where Lissa feels compelled to see the locked parlor where Lilian Willis died. In spite of Diana's attempts to stop her, she opens the parlor door, freeing Miss Lilian's malevolent spirit.
Knowing that Miss Lilian will come after them, Diana and Georgie finally admit to Lissa that they themselves are ghosts. Sixty years ago, Miss Lilian caught them playing in her cellar and locked them in as punishment, intending to free them later that day when their parents returned. Before she could do so, Miss Lilian suffered a stroke and was taken to hospital, leaving the children trapped. Paralyzed by the stroke, Miss Lilian was unable to tell anyone what she had done, and by the time she recovered, several weeks had passed and the children had starved to death. Miss Lilian left the bodies hidden in the cellar and pretended to have no knowledge of what became of the missing children. For decades afterwards, the children's ghosts tormented Miss Lilian until she, too, died and became a ghost who pursued and tormented the children who once tormented her. The children managed to trap her ghost in the parlor and made strict rules to prevent her from ever being freed.
Lissa tells her father to search the cellar, where he finds Diana and Georgie's bodies. The bodies are at last given proper burials, while Diana and Georgie wonder what will become of them now. They are soon found by Miss Lilian, who wants to punish them for revealing her secret. Diana realizes that all of them are bound to the Old Willis Place by the terrible grudges they hold for things that happened long ago and that unless they can forgive one another, none of them will ever leave. The children forgive Miss Lilian for leaving them to die and apologize for tormenting her in her final years, while Miss Lilian, in turn, expresses remorse for her role in the children's deaths. A beautiful silver light descends, and from it, the ghosts of the children's parents arrive to take them to the afterlife. The children's forgiveness allows Miss Lilian to join them there.
Lissa, witnessing the whole scene in secret, is happy for her friends and takes comfort in the idea that her mother also resides within the beautiful light, waiting to reunite with Lissa once again.

# Death Flies East
Death Flies East is a 1935 American mystery film directed by Phil Rosen and starring Conrad Nagel, Florence Rice and Raymond Walburn. The action takes place on an airline flight with a murderer aboard. The film was an early example of the aviation "disaster film" genre.
## Plot
On a transcontinental flight from California to New York, a police detective (Fred Kelsey), found slumped in his seat is, dead, poisoned. The passengers include Evelyn Vail (Florence Rice), a nurse on parole for a murder she did not commit. The victim had also died of poisoning. The elderly doctor she worked for is still in prison. Evelyn is attempting to clear her name and bring the real killer to trial, a convict on death row at Sing Sing who can confess to the killing, if only she can get there in time.
Another passenger is John Robinson Gordon (Conrad Nagel), a college instructor who becomes involved in Evelyn's plight. He is carrying a secret armament formula to deliver to the Secretary of the Navy in Washington, D.C. He protects the valuable secret formula, clutching a briefcase at all times. John begins to suspect Evelyn but other passengers appear suspicious; who, among the other passengers, is the real murderer?

## Reception
Aviation historian Michael Paris equated Death Flies East as a progenitor of the "disaster film". He wrote, "... the stereotyped collection of passengers, essential in the disaster movie, were first created in the 1930s in films such as Thirteen Hours by Air and Death Flies East.

# Dualizing sheaf
In algebraic geometry, the dualizing sheaf on a proper scheme X of dimension n over a field k is a coherent sheaf {\displaystyle \omega _{X}} together with a linear functional
{\displaystyle t_{X}:\operatorname {H} ^{n}(X,\omega _{X})\to k}
that induces a natural isomorphism of vector spaces
{\displaystyle \operatorname {Hom} _{X}(F,\omega _{X})\simeq \operatorname {H} ^{n}(X,F)^{*},\,\varphi \mapsto t_{X}\circ \varphi }
for each coherent sheaf F on X (the superscript * refers to a dual vector space). The linear functional {\displaystyle t_{X}} is called a trace morphism.
A pair {\displaystyle (\omega _{X},t_{X})}, if it is exists, is unique up to a natural isomorphism. In fact, in the language of category theory, {\displaystyle \omega _{X}} is an object representing the contravariant functor {\displaystyle F\mapsto \operatorname {H} ^{n}(X,F)^{*}} from the category of coherent sheaves on X to the category of k-vector spaces.
For a normal projective variety X, the dualizing sheaf exists and it is in fact the canonical sheaf: {\displaystyle \omega _{X}={\mathcal {O}}_{X}(K_{X})} where {\displaystyle K_{X}} is a canonical divisor. More generally, the dualizing sheaf exists for any projective scheme.
There is the following variant of Serre's duality theorem: for a projective scheme X of pure dimension n and a Cohen–Macaulay sheaf F on X such that {\displaystyle \operatorname {Supp} (F)} is of pure dimension n, there is a natural isomorphism
{\displaystyle \operatorname {H} ^{i}(X,F)\simeq \operatorname {H} ^{n-i}(X,\operatorname {{\mathcal {H}}om} (F,\omega _{X}))^{*}}.
In particular, if X itself is a Cohen–Macaulay scheme, then the above duality holds for any locally free sheaf.
## Relative dualizing sheaf
Given a proper finitely presented morphism of schemes {\displaystyle f:X\to Y}, (Kleiman 1980) defines the relative dualizing sheaf {\displaystyle \omega _{f}} or {\displaystyle \omega _{X/Y}} as the sheaf such that for each open subset {\displaystyle U\subset Y} and a quasi-coherent sheaf {\displaystyle F} on {\displaystyle U}, there is a canonical isomorphism
{\displaystyle (f|_{U})^{!}F=\omega _{f}\otimes _{{\mathcal {O}}_{Y}}F},
which is functorial in {\displaystyle F} and commutes with open restrictions.
Example:
If {\displaystyle f} is a local complete intersection morphism between schemes of finite type over a field, then (by definition) each point of {\displaystyle X} has an open neighborhood {\displaystyle U} and a factorization {\displaystyle f|_{U}:U{\overset {i}{\to }}Z{\overset {\pi }{\to }}Y}, a regular embedding of codimension {\displaystyle k} followed by a smooth morphism of relative dimension {\displaystyle r}. Then
{\displaystyle \omega _{f}|_{U}\simeq \wedge ^{r}i^{*}\Omega _{\pi }^{1}\otimes \wedge ^{k}N_{U/Z}}
where {\displaystyle \Omega _{\pi }^{1}} is the sheaf of relative Kähler differentials and {\displaystyle N_{U/Z}} is the normal bundle to {\displaystyle i}.
## Examples
### Dualizing sheaf of a nodal curve
For a smooth curve C, its dualizing sheaf {\displaystyle \omega _{C}} can be given by the canonical sheaf {\displaystyle \Omega _{C}^{1}}.
For a nodal curve C with a node p, we may consider the normalization {\displaystyle \pi :{\tilde {C}}\to C} with two points x, y identified. Let {\displaystyle \Omega _{\tilde {C}}(x+y)} be the sheaf of rational 1-forms on {\displaystyle {\tilde {C}}} with possible simple poles at x and y, and let {\displaystyle \Omega _{\tilde {C}}(x+y)_{0}} be the subsheaf consisting of rational 1-forms with the sum of residues at x and y equal to zero. Then the direct image {\displaystyle \pi _{*}\Omega _{\tilde {C}}(x+y)_{0}} defines a dualizing sheaf for the nodal curve C. The construction can be easily generalized to nodal curves with multiple nodes.
This is used in the construction of the Hodge bundle on the compactified moduli space of curves: it allows us to extend the relative canonical sheaf over the boundary which parametrizes nodal curves. The Hodge bundle is then defined as the direct image of a relative dualizing sheaf.
### Dualizing sheaf of projective schemes
As mentioned above, the dualizing sheaf exists for all projective schemes. For X a closed subscheme of Pn of codimension r, its dualizing sheaf can be given as {\displaystyle {\mathcal {Ext}}_{\mathbf {P} ^{n}}^{r}({\mathcal {O}}_{X},\omega _{\mathbf {P} ^{n}})}. In other words, one uses the dualizing sheaf on the ambient Pn to construct the dualizing sheaf on X.

For a [[normal variety|normal]] projective variety ''X'', the dualizing sheaf exists and it is in fact the [[canonical sheaf]]: <math>\omega_X = \mathcal{O}_X(K_X)</math> where <math>K_X</math> is a [[canonical divisor]]. More generally, the dualizing sheaf exists for any projective scheme.
There is the following variant of [[Serre's duality theorem]]: for a projective scheme ''X'' of pure dimension ''n'' and a [[Cohen–Macaulay sheaf]] ''F'' on ''X'' such that <math>\operatorname{Supp}(F)</math> is of pure dimension ''n'', there is a natural isomorphism<ref>{{harvnb|Kollár|Mori|1998|loc=Theorem 5.71.}}</ref>
:<math>\operatorname{H}^i(X, F) \simeq \operatorname{H}^{n-i}(X, \operatorname{\mathcal{H}om}(F, \omega_X))^*</math>.
In particular, if ''X'' itself is a [[Cohen–Macaulay scheme]], then the above duality holds for any locally free sheaf.<!--==Generalization==
Given a ''S''-scheme ''X'', the '''trace morphism''' is
:<math>f_* \mathcal{O}_X \to \mathcal{O}_S</math>

==Relative dualizing sheaf ==
Given a proper finitely presented morphism of schemes <math>f: X \to Y</math>, {{harv|Kleiman|1980}} defines the '''relative dualizing sheaf''' <math>\omega_f</math> or <math>\omega_{X/Y}</math> as<ref>{{harvnb|Kleiman|1980|loc=Definition 6}}</ref> the sheaf such that for each open subset <math>U \subset Y</math> and a quasi-coherent sheaf <math>F</math> on <math>U</math>, there is a canonical isomorphism
:<math>(f|_U)^! F = \omega_f \otimes_{\mathcal{O}_Y} F</math>,
which is functorial in <math>F</math> and commutes with open restrictions.
'''Example''':<ref>{{harvnb|Arbarello|Cornalba|Griffiths|2011|loc=Ch. X., near the end of § 2.}}</ref>
If <math>f</math> is a [[local complete intersection morphism]] between schemes of finite type over a field, then (by definition) each point of <math>X</math> has an open neighborhood <math>U</math> and a factorization <math>f|_U: U \overset{i}\to Z \overset{\pi}\to Y</math>, a [[regular embedding]] of codimension <math>k</math> followed by a [[smooth morphism]] of relative dimension <math>r</math>. Then
:<math>\omega_f |_U \simeq \wedge^r i^* \Omega^1_{\pi} \otimes \wedge^k N_{U/Z}</math>
where <math>\Omega^1_{\pi}</math> is the [[sheaf of relative Kähler differentials]] and <math>N_{U/Z}</math> is the [[normal bundle]] to <math>i</math>.
==Examples==
===Dualizing sheaf of a nodal curve===
For a smooth curve ''C'', its dualizing sheaf <math>\omega_C</math> can be given by the [[canonical sheaf]] <math>\Omega^1_C</math>.
For a nodal curve ''C'' with a node ''p'', we may consider the normalization <math>\pi:\tilde C\to C</math> with two points ''x'', ''y'' identified. Let <math>\Omega_{\tilde C}(x+y)</math> be the sheaf of rational 1-forms on <math>\tilde C</math> with possible simple poles at ''x'' and ''y'', and let <math>\Omega_{\tilde C}(x+y)_0</math> be the subsheaf consisting of rational 1-forms with the sum of residues at ''x'' and ''y'' equal to zero. Then the direct image <math>\pi_*\Omega_{\tilde C}(x+y)_0</math> defines a dualizing sheaf for the nodal curve ''C''. The construction can be easily generalized to nodal curves with multiple nodes.
This is used in the construction of the [[Hodge bundle]] on the compactified [[moduli space of curves]]: it allows us to extend the relative canonical sheaf over the boundary which parametrizes nodal curves. The Hodge bundle is then defined as the direct image of a relative dualizing sheaf.
===Dualizing sheaf of projective schemes===
As mentioned above, the dualizing sheaf exists for all projective schemes. For ''X'' a closed subscheme of '''P'''<sup>''n''</sup> of codimension ''r'', its dualizing sheaf can be given as <math>\mathcal{Ext}^r_{\mathbf{P}^n}(\mathcal{O}_X,\omega_{\mathbf{P}^n})</math>. In other words, one uses the dualizing sheaf on the ambient '''P'''<sup>''n''</sup> to construct the dualizing sheaf on ''X''.{{R|Hartshorne1977Ch.III§7}}

# Hargrave, Suffolk
Hargrave is a village and civil parish in the West Suffolk district of Suffolk in eastern England, located about 7 miles (10 km) away from south west of Bury St Edmunds. It lies at the crossroads from Ousden and Lady's Green (west), Chevington (east), Barrow, Suffolk (north), and Wickhambrook (in the south).
The village has approximately 120 dwellings, two churches and a village hall (built and funded by the village).
## History
Around the turn of the first millennium, East Anglia was continuously being ravaged by invading Danes, leading to questions as to whether the nineteen local residents recorded in the Domesday Survey (1086) were surviving East Angles or were of Scandinavian origin. Prior to the Norman Conquest, the manor lands of Haragraua (Hares Grove) had been held by Aluiet, one of four freewomen of West Suffolk. The Anglo Saxon form of the name is Haran-grafa with Haran meaning "hare" and grafa meaning "grave" or "trench". It is recorded that she held 480 acres (1.9 km2) of land and the church. Some four fifths of the medieval churches of Suffolk were already in existence at the time of the Conquest, and it is probable that Hargrave was one of them, although the oldest surviving fabric of the building dates from the Norman period of architecture. It is also probable that a medieval hall existed in the vicinity of the present church and hall (although the existing Hargrave Hall dates from mid-sixteenth century), and that its nineteen early residents also lived in that area. These residents predominantly worked in sheep and pig farming.
Following the Conquest, the manor became one of more than three hundred holdings of the abbey, held at the time of Domesday by William De Waterville and subsequently, by the monks, Ralph the Falconer of Barrow and Robert Payne. At the time of the dissolution of the monasteries, it passed to Sir Thomas Kitson, and in 1717 was sold to the Earl of Bristol to become part of the Ickworth Estate.
In 1912, the area of land under cultivation in Hargrave was 1,781 acres (7.21 km2), a mere twenty percent increase in the eight hundred years that had elapsed since Domesday. The population of the village developed equally slowly, and for the first five hundred years following the Domesday record, it was virtually static. It then grew to 324 during the next three hundred years, due to the change in agriculture towards corn farming, and reached its peak of 520 in 1861. From then, the great depression in agriculture caused an exodus from the villages to the towns. Hargrave's population decreased to 264 by 1931, and has remained approximately the same since.
There has been a marked change in the occupations of the residents of the village. Two hundred years ago, 86 people from 64 families were engaged in agriculture, and in 1931, 77% of the families were similarly employed. Today, less than one tenth of its residents are employed on the farms in the village. More than double that number are employed outside the village in retail and services industries, and in public sector and local government occupations. Almost three-quarters of its working residents commute to their place of work.
## Demography
According to the Office for National Statistics, at the time of the 2001 United Kingdom census, Hargrave had a population of 273 with 110 households. increasing to a population of 310 in 120 households at the 2011 census.

# Kieran O'Reilly (performer)
Kieran O'Reilly (born 13 September 1979) is an Irish actor, musician and producer. He is also the songwriter and lead vocalist of the Irish alternative rock band, Hail The Ghost and his solo project, Kopium. He is best known for his controversial role as Detective Garda Ciarán Madden in RTÉ's hit crime drama, Love/Hate, and his role as 'White Hair' in the Emmy Award-winning television show, Vikings.
## Early life and career
O'Reilly was born Kieran Mark O'Reilly and is a twin. He grew up in Dublin, Ireland, and was educated at St. Kilians National School in Tallaght and Synge Street CBS in Dublin's City Centre. On leaving school, he worked as a clerk in the Special Detective Unit in Dublin and in 2000, he enrolled in the Garda Síochána (Ireland's National Police Force). He was stationed at Pearse Street Garda Station in the city centre where he worked in uniform and then in the District Drug Unit. He was then transferred to the National Drug Unit based in Dublin Castle, where he sometimes worked undercover.
## Law enforcement
Kieran O'Reilly is reported to have worked on more than 500 police investigations and was the lead investigating detective in the D.P.P. - vs - Sunny Idah case. Idah was convicted of conspiracy to import controlled drugs into Ireland from Brazil and was sentenced to 13 years in prison. O'Reilly also infiltrated 'Gangland Limerick' whilst living as a heroin addict, in one of the most high profile long-term undercover drugs operations in An Garda Siochana's history. He was also involved in the seizure of €29 million worth of cocaine which resulted in lengthy prison sentences for both Gareth Hopkins and Abraham Shodiya.
## Acting
In 2013, O'Reilly auditioned for a part in the RTÉ crime drama, Love/Hate, securing the role of Detective Ciarán Madden. He first appeared on Irish television screens on 12 October 2013 as part of the opening sequence to Episode 2 (Love/Hate Season 4) playing the part of an undercover cop posing as a drug addict ("Heggo"). This role caused some controversy amongst top ranking officers, in particular, the then Commissioner, Martin Callinan. He ordered an inquiry into O'Reilly's appearance in the show, despite the fact that O'Reilly had not infringed any regulations of the Police Code of Conduct. O'Reilly featured in Irish newspapers for several months and despite being transferred to The National Immigration Bureau, was cleared of all matters in 2014.
O'Reilly's acting debut was well received by the Irish public and he was credited as a natural talent. His Love/Hate co-star, actor, Brían F. O'Byrne, praised O'Reilly's acting, stating, "He has a rare natural talent. As an actor, Kieran possesses an ease, a fluency and creativity on set that belies his novice status". He was also described by Love/Hate creator, Stuart Carolan, as "a pretty amazing actor". The Sunday Times journalist Liam Fay wrote: "...but its initial believability has been enhanced by a strikingly rough-edged performance from Kieran O'Reilly, a real-life undercover Garda". O'Reilly filmed Love/Hate Season 5 in 2014. He is currently a member of the Bow Street Academy for Screen Acting.
O'Reilly joined the cast of Vikings in 2017 playing the role of 'White Hair' across Seasons 5 and 6. O'Reilly's character met his demise in what has been described as the best one-on-one fight in the history of the show, when 'White Hair' took on lead actress Katheryn Winnick who played 'Lagertha', in what would be 'Lagertha's' last battle before being killed herself by 'Hvitserk'. The fight sequence was shot on location in Ireland over several days with both actors reportedly doing all the stunts themselves.
## Music
### Doris
Kieran O'Reilly began playing music in 2003, teaching himself how to play the drums. That same year, he joined Dublin pop/rock band, Doris. O'Reilly was a central figure in the band's development and assisted in the releasing of the band's first two singles, "Will I Ever Learn" and "Stop". During O'Reilly's time in the band, they were selected by Hot Press Magazine to have a music video shot for "Will I Ever Learn" in conjunction with the Tisch School of the Arts, New York University. O'Reilly left the band in 2007.
### White McKenzie
O'Reilly formed White McKenzie in 2010 with a group of friends. He was the sole vocalist and songwriter for the band. In 2011, in only the band's third live performance, they played in the final of the Shercock Battle of the Bands competition, competing for a place to play in the Glastonbury Festival in the UK; however they missed out on the top prize to Irish blues band, Crow Black Chicken. O'Reilly and friends later released a 7 track Mini Album/E.P. entitled Absence. The sleeve image for this E.P. was provided by Rob Hann (New York City). In November 2011, Jackie Hayden of Hot Press Magazine chose Absence as his "Pick of the Fortnight". White McKenzie also opened the Kildare leg of the First Music Contact Tour on 9 November 2012, sharing the stage with Squarehead, We Cut Corners and The Lost Brothers. White McKenzie released their single, 'Heatseeker' in late 2012, shortly before the band broke up. Sensing band members were moving in different directions, O'Reilly decided to leave the band. "I just felt that I didn't really want to pursue it any longer, and I wanted to preserve the friendships that were there. Which we did, we're all still great friends. I just felt that we didn't know what we were doing, and I think the lads felt the same". The band were described by Today FM presenter, Ian Dempsey, as "really top quality". In 2016, several White McKenzie tracks were featured in the Irish film, "Coming Home" by Cathal Kenna.
### Hail The Ghost
In 2014 O'Reilly formed Hail The Ghost which includes two former White McKenzie members, Ian Corr (piano/keys) and Eamon Young (guitars). O'Reilly spent 2014 writing and producing the band's debut album Forsaken with Corr, Young and Martin Quinn of JAM Studios who co-produced and engineered the album. The album features O'Reilly playing drums, guitar and vocals. He credits The National, The Antlers and Elbow as influences when he was composing the album's songs which would be: "a piece that would have that cohesive feel to it, we would have that thematic thing and we would also have a story, beginning to end. Though it's not necessarily a story [in a book] sense, but like an actual journey." The band's song, 'LAZISE' was used by the G.A.A. in their advertising campaign for the 'GAA NOW' initiative throughout the 2017 All-Ireland Championships. The online video was played 700,000 times in four weeks."
Hail The Ghost released their second studio album, 'Arrhythmia' on 6 December 2019 with The Irish Times referring to the album as a "smart collection of intelligent and sensitive rock... [that will] do the heart and soul good". Hot Press Magazine reported: "Last time round, we described them as "atmospheric indie", but 'Arrhythmia' is composed of bleaker soundscapes, more reminiscent of Joy Division".
### Kieran O'Reilly & Ragga Ragnars
On 5 February 2020, Kieran O'Reilly released "Broken Wings" with his on-screen Vikings co-star and former double Olympian, Ragga Ragnars. The pair co-wrote the track before recording the song in JAM Studios in Ireland with Martin Quinn recording, mixing and mastering. The track was produced by Kieran O'Reilly and Martin Quinn. Hot Press Magazine described the song as "an absolute pearler". The music video for the track was filmed on location in Iceland by Ragnars' brother and filmmaker, Gudjon Ragnarsson.
### Kopium
2025 saw the release of Kieran O'Reilly's first solo material under the moniker, 'Kopium'. His debut single, 'Sail' featured on RTÉ_2XM's 'The London Ear' as the recommended track of the week. Rotate Magazine wrote: "Sail" introduces listeners to this tonal shift with its delicate melodies and introspective lyrics. The track is steeped in melancholy, weaving O’Reilly’s evocative vocals with a subtle instrumental backdrop that underscores the vulnerability of his storytelling. It’s a mesmerizing start, promising a cohesive yet varied journey through, The Weeping Willow".
Kopium's debut album, 'The Weeping Willow' was released on February 28th 2025 on O'Reilly's White Heart Records. In reviewing the album for 'The Irish Post', Tony Clayton-Lea stated: "As implied by the album title, the mellow music hints towards the sombre and reflective; the song narratives, too, outline a rare poignancy that occasionally nods to the melancholy yields of Nick Cave and Richard Hawley, and the spooky spirit of Roy Orbison". Hotpress Magazine wrote on the release of the single 'No Thorns': "'No Thorns' is a mellow yet incredibly transporting ballad, both reflective and conversational in nature. With the musician’s buttery-smooth voice and the warmth of the song’s arrangements, 'No Thorns' makes for a poignant and terribly exciting new number from the Irish musician and actor."
## Writing
O'Reilly wrote the screenplay for the Irish feature film, 'For Molly', which premiered on October 4, 2018. He wrote the film in just four months and when asked about how he began writing, O'Reilly credited Love/Hate writer, Stuart Carolan with being the primary inspiration - stating, "I have been writing ever since I picked up Stuart Carolan’s script [for Love/Hate] because when I picked up that script, I thought: I want to be a writer." O'Reilly is reported to have written numerous screenplays since starting to write in 2013.
## Sport
O’Reilly was a member of the Sportsworld A.C. in Dublin. He competed in both track and cross-country. In 1999, at just 19 years of age, O’Reilly finished 7th in the National Under 23 Irish Championships in the 400m, with Olympians Paul Oppermann taking gold and James Nolan taking bronze.
O’Reilly joined Mount Tallant Boxing Club in 1996 where he was trained by former double Olympian, Mick Dowling. In 1998 O’Reilly won the Dublin and Leinster Novice Middleweight Boxing Titles. In 1999 he won the Dublin and Leinster Intermediate Light-Heavyweight Boxing Titles, defeating Martin Sweeney of Phoenix Boxing Club in the Leinster final. In 2002, O’Reilly was defeated by Jamie Power of St. Francis Boxing Club in the quarter-finals of the National Irish Junior Championships. In 2003, O’Reilly won gold at the World Police and Fire Games in Barcelona in the Intermediate Light-Heavyweight division.

He ordered an inquiry into O'Reilly's appearance in the show, despite the fact that O'Reilly had not infringed any regulations of the Police Code of Conduct.<ref>''The Herald'', 21 October 2013, p. 1.</ref> O'Reilly featured in Irish newspapers for several months and despite being transferred to The National Immigration Bureau,<ref>''Irish Independent'', 11 January 2014, p. 7.</ref> was cleared of all matters in 2014.
O'Reilly's acting debut was well received by the Irish public and he was credited as a natural talent. His ''Love/Hate'' co-star,<ref>''Irish Independent'', 15 October 2014, p. 6.</ref> actor, [[Brían F. O'Byrne]], praised O'Reilly's acting, stating, "He has a rare natural talent.

O'Reilly joined the cast of Vikings in 2017 playing the role of 'White Hair' across Seasons 5 and 6. O'Reilly's character met his demise in what has been described as the best one-on-one fight in the history of the show, when 'White Hair' took on lead actress [[Katheryn Winnick]] who played '[[Lagertha]]', in what would be 'Lagertha's' last battle before being killed herself by '[[Hvitserk]]'.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.forbes.com/sites/erikkain/2020/01/08/vikings-season-6-episode-6-recap-and-review-death-and-the-serpent-and-a-big-farewell/ |title='Vikings' Season 6, episode 6 Recap And Review: 'Death And The Serpent' And A Sad Farewell |work=forbes.com |date=8 January 2020 |accessdate=13 February 2020}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://variety.com/2020/tv/features/vikings-season-6-episode-6-death-and-the-serpent-michael-hirst-katheryn-winnick-interview-spoilers-1203456576/ |title='Vikings' Team Talks Season 6's Most 'Significant and Powerful' Death |publisher=variety.com |date=8 January 2020 |accessdate=13 February 2020}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://tvline.com/2020/01/08/vikings-recap-season-6-episode-6-lagertha-dies-katheryn-winnick-interview/ |title=Vikings' Katheryn Winnick Opens Up About the 'Epic' Outcome of Lagertha's Brutal Battle With White Hair |publisher=tvline.com |date=8 January 2020 |accessdate=13 February 2020}}</ref> The fight sequence was shot on location in Ireland over several days with both actors reportedly doing all the stunts themselves.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://metro.co.uk/2020/01/15/vikings-katheryn-winnick-kieran-oreilly-refused-stunt-doubles-exhausting-bloodbath-12064031/ |title=Vikings' Katheryn Winnick and Kieran O'Reilly refused stunt doubles for 'exhausting bloodbath' |publisher=metro.co.uk |date=15 January 2020 |accessdate=13 February 2020}}</ref>

O'Reilly formed White McKenzie in 2010 with a group of friends. He was the sole vocalist and songwriter for the band. In 2011, in only the band's third live performance, they played in the final of the [[Shercock]] Battle of the Bands competition, competing for a place to play in the [[Glastonbury Festival]] in the UK; however they missed out on the top prize to Irish blues band, [[Crow Black Chicken]].<ref>''The Irish Times'', 4 March 2011, p. 33.</ref> O'Reilly and friends later released a 7 track Mini Album/E.P. entitled ''Absence''.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.goldenplec.com/review-white-mckenzie-absence/ |title=Review: White McKenzie – Absence |publisher=goldenplec.com |date=13 December 2011 |accessdate=17 May 2014}}</ref><ref>''Hot Press'', vol: 35, issue: 23, 30 November 2011, p. 83.</ref> The sleeve image for this E.P. was provided by Rob Hann (New York City).

Sensing band members were moving in different directions, O'Reilly decided to leave the band. "I just felt that I didn't really want to pursue it any longer, and I wanted to preserve the friendships that were there. Which we did, we're all still great friends. I just felt that we didn't know what we were doing, and I think the lads felt the same".<ref>{{cite web|title=Interviews Hail the Ghost|url=http://www.scenepointblank.com/features/interviews/hail-the-ghost/|publisher=Scenepoint.com|accessdate=7 April 2015}}</ref> The band were described by [[Today FM]] presenter, [[Ian Dempsey]], as "really top quality".<ref>''Today FM – Breakfast Show'', broadcast 16 September 2011.</ref> In 2016, several White McKenzie tracks were featured in the Irish film, "Coming Home" by Cathal Kenna.<ref>{{cite web|title=New Irish Documentary 'Coming Home' explores Irish Emigration|url=http://www.iftn.ie/distribution/news/?act1=record&only=1&aid=73&rid=4289852&tpl=archnews&force=1|date=8 November 2016|publisher=iftn.ie|accessdate=23 November 2016}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|title=Irish Film Review: Coming Home|url=http://filmireland.net/2016/11/18/irish-film-review-coming-home/|publisher=filmireland.net|date=8 November 2016|accessdate=23 November 2016}}</ref>
=== Hail The Ghost ===
In 2014 O'Reilly formed Hail The Ghost which includes two former White McKenzie members, Ian Corr (piano/keys) and Eamon Young (guitars).

The album features O'Reilly playing drums, guitar and vocals. He credits The National, The Antlers and Elbow as influences when he was composing the album's songs which would be: "a piece that would have that cohesive feel to it, we would have that thematic thing and we would also have a story, beginning to end. Though it's not necessarily a story [in a book] sense, but like an actual journey."<ref>{{cite news|title=Interviews Hail the Ghost|newspaper=Scene Point Blank|url=http://www.scenepointblank.com/features/interviews/hail-the-ghost/|publisher=Scenepoint|accessdate=7 April 2015}}</ref> The band's song, 'LAZISE' was used by the [[Gaelic Athletic Association|G.A.A.]] in their advertising campaign for the 'GAA NOW' initiative throughout the 2017 [[All-Ireland Senior Hurling Championship|All-Ireland Championships]].

2025 saw the release of Kieran O'Reilly's first solo material under the moniker, 'Kopium'. His debut single, 'Sail' featured on [[RTÉ_2XM]]'s 'The London Ear' as the recommended track of the week.<ref>{{cite web| title=Kieran O'Reilly and Ragga Ragnars release new single 'Broken Wings'| website=rte.ie| url=https://www.rte.ie/radio/2xm/clips/11686912/?fbclid=PAY2xjawIUs-hleHRuA2FlbQIxMAABpi28A_FyBaognSeULlMjJXuL1BgFSEdZ3xF330wkNTRkmMo4lBXaeVr1Dw_aem_UsWsw176Y6ciELNmOh2byQ| publisher=RTÉ| date=11 January 2025| accessdate=11 April 2025}}</ref> Rotate Magazine wrote: "Sail" introduces listeners to this tonal shift with its delicate melodies and introspective lyrics. The track is steeped in melancholy, weaving O’Reilly’s evocative vocals with a subtle instrumental backdrop that underscores the vulnerability of his storytelling. It’s a mesmerizing start, promising a cohesive yet varied journey through, The Weeping Willow".<ref>{{cite web| title=KOPIUM's Debut Single 'Sail': A Haunting Prelude to Debut Album 'The Weeping Willow'| website=rotatemagazine.com| url=https://rotatemagazine.com/kopiums-debut-single-sail-a-haunting-prelude-to-debut-album-the-weeping-willow/| publisher=Rotate Magazine| date=17 January 2025| accessdate=11 April 2025}}</ref>
Kopium's debut album, 'The Weeping Willow' was released on February 28th 2025 on O'Reilly's White Heart Records. In reviewing the album for 'The Irish Post', Tony Clayton-Lea stated: "As implied by the album title, the mellow music hints towards the sombre and reflective; the song narratives, too, outline a rare poignancy that occasionally nods to the melancholy yields of [[Nick Cave]] and [[Richard Hawley]], and the spooky spirit of [[Roy Orbison]]".<ref>{{cite web| title=ON THE RECORD: Some of the best new music releases in Ireland this month| website=irishpost.com| url=https://www.irishpost.com/entertainment/on-the-record-some-of-the-best-new-music-releases-in-ireland-this-month-284779| publisher=The Irish Post| date=31 January 2025| accessdate=11 April 2025}}</ref> Hotpress Magazine wrote on the release of the single 'No Thorns': "'No Thorns' is a mellow yet incredibly transporting ballad, both reflective and conversational in nature. With the musician’s buttery-smooth voice and the warmth of the song’s arrangements, 'No Thorns' makes for a poignant and terribly exciting new number from the Irish musician and actor."<ref>{{cite web| title=New Irish Songs To Hear This Week| website=hotpress.com| url=https://www.hotpress.com/music/new-irish-songs-to-hear-this-week-196-23071340| publisher=Hot Press| date=21 February 2025| accessdate=11 April 2025}}</ref>

# Lahnus
Lahnus is a district in the city of Espoo and administratively belongs to the Northern Espoo area. It is located near the municipality of Nurmijärvi and its largest village, Klaukkala. The most famous places in Lahnus are the Serena Waterpark and Hotel Korpilampi.
Finnish regional road 120 (Vihdintie) between Helsinki and Vihti, one of the most important road connections from Lahnus to the capital, passes through the district. Along the road, at the intersection near the Shell filling station, the north branch road to Klaukkala is Lahnuksentie (Mt 1324). There are also several nature reserves in Lahnus: Tremanskärr Nature Reserve and Luukki Nature Reserve, as well as part of Nuuksio National Park.
Lahnus is an old village name and has been spelled, among others: Lanoxby (1540), Lanos (1541), Lanas (1547), Lora (1558), Loureby (1559), Lahcnus (1563) and Lahnås (1594). The name is probably of Finnish origin, but the meaning is unclear. The highest daily rainfall in Finland was measured in Lahnus: on July 21, 1944, it was 198 millimeters.

# SiriusXM Canada
Sirius XM Canada Holdings Inc. (commonly referred to as Sirius XM Canada; normally stylized SiriusXM) is a Canadian broadcasting company which distributes the services of American satellite radio provider Sirius XM in Canada.
The current company was formed on June 21, 2011, following the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission's April 2011 approval to merge the formerly distinct XM Radio Canada and Sirius Canada services. This followed the 2008 merger of XM Satellite Radio and Sirius Satellite Radio in the United States.
Following a subsequent privatization transaction, majority voting control was split between Slaight Communications and John Bitove, two of the primary Canadian investors of the original Sirius Canada and XM Canada services respectively; Slaight Communications' interest was later inherited by Gary Slaight. Due to Canadian broadcasting ownership regulations, the U.S. company Sirius XM Holdings is limited to a 33% voting interest in the Canadian firm, but holds 70% of the equity.
## History
### Predecessors
Sirius Canada was a Canadian-based partnership between Slaight Communications, the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, and U.S.-based Sirius Satellite Radio. XM Satellite Radio Canada was the operating name of Canadian Satellite Radio Holdings Inc., a company formed in 2002 by John Bitove in partnership with Sirius' U.S. competitor, XM Satellite Radio.
Following the receipt of applications in 2003 and 2004, in June 2005, the CRTC issued six-year licenses to three companies to introduce subscription radio service to Canada: Sirius Canada, XM Canada, and a partnership between CHUM Limited and Astral Media. The CHUM/Astral partnership proposed a service fed by terrestrial transmitters instead of satellites, and never launched. Both Sirius Canada and XM Canada launched in late 2005.
### Merger
Following the 2008 merger of Sirius and XM in the U.S., the two Canadian companies did not immediately announce plans to merge, and continued to compete in the Canadian marketplace. A complicating factor in any Canadian merger talks was that Sirius Canada had far more than half of the total satellite radio subscriber base in Canada, and felt they deserved greater than a 50/50 split of the new company, whereas XM Canada felt that their deal with the National Hockey League — a particularly lucrative prize in Canadian sports broadcasting — warranted a larger share of value in the new company than its subscriber base would suggest.
However, in their eventual application to the CRTC, XM Canada and Sirius Canada noted that following the U.S. merger, they found it increasingly difficult to remain in operation as distinct, competing services in Canada even as the parent services increasingly integrated and amalgamated their programming. In an interview with The Globe and Mail before the merger was approved, Bitove also noted the difficulties that arose from the merged American service becoming a minority shareholder in both of the Canadian companies simultaneously, such as conflicts of interest that forced the American company to leave its Canadian partners out of strategic planning discussions which would have given each company power over decisions affecting the other.
On November 24, 2010, XM Radio Canada and Sirius Canada announced that they had reached a deal to merge their services.
John Bitove's Canadian Satellite Radio Holdings Inc. held 30.4% and effective control of the new company. Slaight Communications and the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC), the primary shareholders in the former Sirius, each held 20.4%, and the American parent Sirius XM held 25%. Both Bitove and Mark Redmond, the former president and CEO of Sirius Canada, hold executive roles with the new company.
As of 2011, Sirius and XM in the United States offered nearly identical programming lineups, with the Canadian-produced channels being among the few remaining distinctions between the two services; eventually the Canadian channels were also harmonized between services. Premier packages became available in Canada on October 1, 2012.
### 2017 privatization
In 2016, Sirius XM Canada, which had had its shares publicly traded on the Toronto Stock Exchange, announced a privatization ("go-private") and recapitalization transaction whereby three of the broadcaster's largest shareholders – Slaight Communications, John Bitove's Obelysk Media, and Sirius XM U.S. – would buy out the remaining public shareholders. The transaction was completed the next year, following CRTC approval, following which Sirius XM took a 70% equity interest in the Canadian firm but only 33% of voting shares, with the remainder split between Slaight and Obelysk.
The CBC exited its ownership position as a result of the transaction, though CBC channels continued to be broadcast on the SiriusXM platform.
### 2020—present
In October 2022, CBC-programmed music channels were removed from SiriusXM and replaced with Canadian music channels programmed directly by SiriusXM Canada; feeds of CBC Radio One and Ici Radio-Canada Première continue to air on SiriusXM.
In October 2024, the CRTC approved the transfer of shares owned by Slaight Communications—owned by Allan Slaight, who died in 2021—directly to Allan's son Gary Slaight.
In March 2025, SiriusXM Canada launched SiriusXM Dhamaka, a South Asian music channel produced in-house, taking over the channel position (796) of the discontinued ATN-Asian Radio, which had been produced by Canadian broadcaster Asian Television Network since 2007.
## Services
Sirius XM Canada is the Canadian distributor of the namesake SiriusXM satellite radio and streaming platforms. Officially, Sirius Canada and XM Canada remain separate satellite radio services, though since 2012 operated under a single licence, under the authority of the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC). This distinction is due to technical differences between the two platforms which may result in minor programming variations between the two services, despite the fact that most programming has been harmonized since the U.S. and Canadian mergers.
As it uses the same infrastructure as SiriusXM U.S., the Canadian service cannot program a full set of channels that adheres to the same Canadian content rules as traditional radio stations. Instead, under the terms of its CRTC licence, SiriusXM Canada must offer a minimum of 10% Canadian-produced channels (i.e., at least one Canadian channel for every nine channels originating from the U.S. or elsewhere) in each of its packages, of which at least one must be an Indigenous channel, and several must be French-language channels. On these channels, at least 85% of musical selections and 85% of spoken-word content must be Canadian content. The service must also make significant ongoing financial contributions to Canadian content development.
From time to time, these rules have resulted in certain American channels being unavailable on satellite radio to SiriusXM Canada subscribers. These channel restrictions do not apply to SiriusXM's streaming platforms, and (subject to program rights conflicts) all are available through the SiriusXM app, as are all of SiriusXM's "Xtra" channels.
Packaging generally mirrors that of the American service. As of April 2024, available plans consist of three tiers of cross-platform (satellite and streaming) channels and functionality, as well as an app-only "All Access" plan. Certain plans include streaming "artist stations", which until late 2023 were branded as being powered by Pandora, a streaming service that is not otherwise available in Canada.
### Current Canadian channels
As of March 2025, the Canadian channels produced or supplied by SiriusXM Canada, ordered by their channel numbers, are as follows. Some channels, particularly those in the 600s and up, may only be available in the SiriusXM app, and/or on SiriusXM's 360L platform (available on select vehicles produced since 2019) which can also stream content through vehicles' cellular data modems.

'''Sirius XM Canada Holdings Inc.'''<ref name="ownership-chart-214-sirius-xm-canada"/> (commonly referred to as '''Sirius XM Canada'''; normally stylized '''SiriusXM''') is a Canadian broadcasting company which distributes the services of American [[satellite radio]] provider [[Sirius XM]] in Canada.
The current company was formed on June 21, 2011, following the [[Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission]]'s April 2011 approval to merge the formerly distinct [[XM Radio Canada]] and [[Sirius Canada]] services.<ref name=broadcaster>[http://www.broadcastermagazine.com/news/sirius-canada-and-xm-canada-complete-merger/1000486539/ "Sirius Canada and XM Canada Complete Merger"]. ''Broadcaster'', June 21, 2011.</ref><ref name=crtc>[http://www.crtc.gc.ca/eng/archive/2011/2011-240.htm CRTC Decision 2011-240].</ref> This followed the 2008 merger of [[XM Satellite Radio]] and [[Sirius Satellite Radio]] in the United States.
Following a subsequent privatization transaction, majority voting control was split between [[Slaight Communications]] and [[John Bitove]], two of the primary Canadian investors of the original Sirius Canada and XM Canada services respectively; Slaight Communications' interest was later inherited by [[Gary Slaight]]. Due to Canadian broadcasting ownership regulations, the U.S. company Sirius XM Holdings is limited to a 33% voting interest in the Canadian firm, but holds 70% of the equity.<ref name="ownership-chart-214-sirius-xm-canada" /><ref name="crtc-2017-recap" />
==History==
===Predecessors===
{{mainarticle|Sirius Canada|XM Radio Canada}}
Sirius Canada was a Canadian-based partnership between Slaight Communications, the [[Canadian Broadcasting Corporation]], and U.S.-based Sirius Satellite Radio. XM Satellite Radio Canada was the operating name of Canadian Satellite Radio Holdings Inc., a company formed in 2002 by [[John Bitove]] in partnership with Sirius' U.S. competitor, XM Satellite Radio.
Following the receipt of applications in 2003 and 2004, in June 2005, the CRTC issued six-year licenses to three companies to introduce subscription radio service to Canada: Sirius Canada, XM Canada, and a partnership between [[CHUM Limited]] and [[Astral Media]].<ref>{{cite web|url=https://crtc.gc.ca/eng/archive/2005/pb2005-61.htm|title=Broadcasting Public Notice CRTC 2005-61|author=Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission|date=June 16, 2005|access-date=May 22, 2024}}</ref> The CHUM/Astral partnership proposed a service fed by terrestrial transmitters instead of satellites, and never launched. Both Sirius Canada and XM Canada launched in late 2005.
===Merger===
Following the 2008 merger of Sirius and XM in the U.S., the two Canadian companies did not immediately announce plans to merge, and continued to compete in the Canadian marketplace. A complicating factor in any Canadian merger talks was that Sirius Canada had far more than half of the total satellite radio subscriber base in Canada, and felt they deserved greater than a 50/50 split of the new company, whereas XM Canada felt that their deal with the [[National Hockey League]] — a particularly lucrative prize in Canadian sports broadcasting — warranted a larger share of value in the new company than its subscriber base would suggest.<ref name=vlessing>{{cite news|first=Etan|last=Vlessing|title=XM-Sirius merger not replicated in Canada|work=[[The Hollywood Reporter]]|date=July 29, 2008}}</ref>
However, in their eventual application to the CRTC, XM Canada and Sirius Canada noted that following the U.S. merger, they found it increasingly difficult to remain in operation as distinct, competing services in Canada even as the parent services increasingly integrated and amalgamated their programming.<ref name=crtc /> In an interview with ''[[The Globe and Mail]]'' before the merger was approved, Bitove also noted the difficulties that arose from the merged American service becoming a minority shareholder in both of the Canadian companies simultaneously, such as [[conflict of interest|conflicts of interest]] that forced the American company to leave its Canadian partners out of strategic planning discussions which would have given each company power over decisions affecting the other.<ref>[https://www.theglobeandmail.com/report-on-business/xm-sirius-move-closer-to-merger-in-canada/article1912257/ "XM, Sirius move closer to merger in Canada"]. ''[[The Globe and Mail]]'', February 17, 2011.</ref>
On November 24, 2010, XM Radio Canada and Sirius Canada announced that they had reached a deal to merge their services.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.radio-info.com/news/finally-sirius-canada-and-xm-canada-are-merging |title=Finally, Sirius Canada and XM Canada are merging |date=November 24, 2010 |work=Radio-Info.com |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20101127164557/http://www.radio-info.com/news/finally-sirius-canada-and-xm-canada-are-merging |archive-date=November 27, 2010 }}</ref>
[[John Bitove]]'s Canadian Satellite Radio Holdings Inc. held 30.4% and effective control of the new company. [[Slaight Communications]] and the [[Canadian Broadcasting Corporation]] (CBC), the primary shareholders in the former Sirius, each held 20.4%, and the American parent Sirius XM held 25%.<ref name="crtc" /> Both Bitove and Mark Redmond, the former president and CEO of Sirius Canada, hold executive roles with the new company.<ref>[http://www.marketnews.ca/content/index/page?pid=8905 "CRTC Approves XM Canada & Sirius Canada Merger"]. ''Marketnews'', April 12, 2011.</ref>
As of 2011, Sirius and XM in the United States offered nearly identical programming lineups, with the Canadian-produced channels being among the few remaining distinctions between the two services; eventually the Canadian channels were also harmonized between services. Premier packages became available in Canada on October 1, 2012.
===2017 privatization===
In 2016, Sirius XM Canada, which had had its shares publicly traded on the [[Toronto Stock Exchange]], announced a [[privatization]] ("go-private") and recapitalization transaction whereby three of the broadcaster's largest shareholders – Slaight Communications, John Bitove's Obelysk Media, and Sirius XM U.S. – would buy out the remaining public shareholders.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.bnnbloomberg.ca/sirius-xm-canada-to-be-taken-private-in-351m-deal-led-by-u-s-parent-1.488969|title=Sirius XM Canada to be taken private in $351M deal led by U.S. parent|agency=Reuters / Canadian Press|work=BNNBloomberg.ca|date=May 13, 2016|access-date=August 6, 2023}}</ref> The transaction was completed the next year, following CRTC approval, following which Sirius XM took a 70% equity interest in the Canadian firm but only 33% of voting shares, with the remainder split between Slaight and Obelysk.<ref name="crtc-2017-recap">{{Cite web|last=Government of Canada|first=Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC)|date=2017-04-26|title=Sirius Canada and XM Canada – Transfer of shares|url=https://crtc.gc.ca/eng/archive/2017/2017-114.htm|access-date=2021-06-06|website=crtc.gc.ca}}</ref>
The CBC exited its ownership position as a result of the transaction, though CBC channels continued to be broadcast on the SiriusXM platform.<ref name="crtc-2017-recap" />
===2020—present===
In October 2022, CBC-programmed music channels were removed from SiriusXM and replaced with Canadian music channels programmed directly by SiriusXM Canada; feeds of [[CBC Radio One]] and [[Ici Radio-Canada Première]] continue to air on SiriusXM.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2022-10-24 |title=CBC Music Channels Depart SiriusXM - RadioInsight |url=https://radioinsight.com/headlines/244282/cbc-music-channels-depart-siriusxm/ |access-date=2023-03-20 |language=en-US}}</ref>
In October 2024, the CRTC approved the transfer of shares owned by Slaight Communications—owned by [[Allan Slaight]], who died in 2021—directly to Allan's son [[Gary Slaight]].<ref>{{cite web|url=https://applications.crtc.gc.ca/demradbroadappl/Default-Defaut.aspx?Lang=e|title=Broadcasting Applications Report|publisher=Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission|access-date=2024-11-14}} (filter by application number 2024-0429-2)</ref>
In March 2025, SiriusXM Canada launched SiriusXM Dhamaka, a South Asian music channel produced in-house, taking over the channel position (796) of the discontinued [[ATN-Asian Radio]], which had been produced by Canadian broadcaster [[Asian Television Network]] since 2007.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://radioinsight.com/headlines/297427/siriusxm-launches-south-asian-channel/|title=SiriusXM Launches South Asian Channel|first=Lance|last=Venta|work=RadioInsight|date=March 26, 2025|access-date=March 26, 2025}}</ref>
==Services==
Sirius XM Canada is the Canadian distributor of the namesake SiriusXM satellite radio and streaming platforms. Officially, Sirius Canada and XM Canada remain separate satellite radio services, though since 2012 operated under a single licence, under the authority of the [[Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission]] (CRTC). This distinction is due to technical differences between the two platforms which may result in minor programming variations between the two services, despite the fact that most programming has been harmonized since the U.S. and Canadian mergers.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://crtc.gc.ca/eng/archive/2012/2012-629.htm|title=Broadcasting Decision CRTC 2012-629|author=Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission|date=November 16, 2012|access-date=August 6, 2023}}</ref>
As it uses the same infrastructure as SiriusXM U.S., the Canadian service cannot program a full set of channels that adheres to the same [[Canadian content]] rules as traditional radio stations. Instead, under the terms of its CRTC licence, SiriusXM Canada must offer a minimum of 10% Canadian-produced channels (i.e., at least one Canadian channel for every nine channels originating from the U.S. or elsewhere) in each of its packages, of which at least one must be an Indigenous channel, and several must be French-language channels. On these channels, at least 85% of musical selections and 85% of spoken-word content must be Canadian content. The service must also make significant ongoing financial contributions to Canadian content development.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://crtc.gc.ca/eng/archive/2019/2019-431.htm|title=Broadcasting Decision CRTC 2019-431|date=December 19, 2019|access-date=August 6, 2023}}</ref>
From time to time, these rules have resulted in certain American channels being unavailable on satellite radio to SiriusXM Canada subscribers. These channel restrictions do not apply to SiriusXM's streaming platforms, and (subject to program rights conflicts) all are available through the SiriusXM app, as are all of SiriusXM's "Xtra" channels.
Packaging generally mirrors that of the American service. {{As of|April 2024}}, available plans consist of three tiers of cross-platform (satellite and streaming) channels and functionality, as well as an app-only "All Access" plan.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.siriusxm.ca/plans/|title=Get the plan that's right for you|work=SiriusXM.ca|access-date=April 12, 2024}}</ref> Certain plans include streaming "artist stations", which until late 2023 were branded as being powered by [[Pandora (service)|Pandora]], a streaming service that is not otherwise available in Canada.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://listenercare.siriusxm.ca/prweb/PRRestService/seoCa/km/help/SupportCenterExCA/KC-241219|title=Why can't I locate my Pandora Stations in the new SiriusXM app?|work=SiriusXM Canada Support Center|access-date=April 12, 2024}}</ref>

# Geoffrey Goodwin
Geoffrey Goodwin is a television and digital executive who has worked in both the United Kingdom and in his native Canada. He was head of strategy for drama, entertainment, comedy, children’s and film at the BBC from 2003 to 2007, and wrote the BBC's under-18s strategy with Andy Parfitt in 2007. In that year, 2007 Goodwin set up BBC Switch, a multi-platform brand aimed at teenagers, which he ran for four years. In January 2013, after working for the then CEO of BBC Worldwide John Smith, Goodwin founded his own production and talent management company, 40 Partners Ltd.
## Career
### BBC head of strategy, DEC
After working as a media consultant in London at IXL and BBC Ventures for various blue chip companies, Goodwin took on the role of head of strategy for BBC Drama, Entertainment, Comedy, Children's and Film ("DEC"), reporting to Alan Yentob. During this time, Goodwin worked closely with BBC programme department heads and other BBC executive directors to develop editorial, business, and financial strategy across DEC programme genres - a circa £500 million production entity that included two digital TV channels and BBC Films.
Goodwin also lead several pan-BBC projects, including the BBC Creative Futures Under-18s workstream with Andy Parfitt.
During his time as head of strategy for DEC, Goodwin drove strategy of digital investment into DEC-related programme areas, helping launch some of the first and most successful digital brands of the BBC, including BBC Fictionlab, BBC Collective, and the BBC Film Network.
In February 2006 Goodwin wrote the BBC's film strategy for Alan Yentob, which included a £100 million boost for the British film industry, in the hope of producing more hits like Billy Elliot.
### BBC Switch
In 2007, in a return to programme-making, Geoff set up BBC Switch, a new BBC brand which was aimed at teenagers.
BBC Switch represented a step forward for the BBC, not only in that it reached out to the underserved age group of 12- to 17-year-olds, but also in that it was multi-platform to a degree not seen at the BBC before. BBC Switch spanned television and radio, but at its heart was an online presence. Switch had its own website, www.bbc.co.uk/switch, but, importantly, also hosted content on external third party sites, including Facebook and YouTube.
Switch's television slot was Saturdays 12pm-2pm on BBC Two. On radio, Switch occupied 7pm onwards on Sunday evenings, and online daily from 5pm.
The team that Goodwin assembled for the development of BBC Switch included Emma Smithwick and Daniel Heaf. The team reported to Jana Bennett, director of TV, and Andy Parfitt, who at that time was the controller of Radio 1, BBC 1 Xtra and BBC Popular Music. At the time, Goodwin described BBC Switch as "committed to offering the best entertainment for British teens in a way that's authentic and fresh".
### Television
Four programmes originally filled the BBC Two slot of Saturdays 12pm-2pm. Sound was a weekly music entertainment and chat show presented by Annie Mac and Nick Grimshaw. Falcon Beach was a coming-of-age drama about teenagers, their passions, relationships, friends, families and enemies. Them was a documentary series that explored the different teenage tribes that exist in Britain today. The Surgery, presented by Jeff Leach, was a chat show for BBC Switch. The Surgery was the television version of The Sunday Surgery, a radio show presented by Kelly Osbourne, which aimed to help teenagers with everyday problems
Switch's flagship programme, and one of the first British dramas to air online, The Cut, premiered in 2010. The Cut was unique in that it aired in five-minute webisodes on the Switch website and via YouTube, before showing in an omnibus on BBC Two. Goodwin commissioned and produced The Cut, which ran for forty episodes with great success. Goodwin created The Cut with director/producer Sarah Walker, producer Pete Gibbons and the award-winning writer Al Smith. He also worked with directors Laura Smith, Alex Kalymnios and Amy Neil and writers Anna McCleery, Grant Black, Emma Smithwick and Vicki Lutas.
In 2008, Goodwin commissioned Class Of 2008 for BBC Switch; an observational documentary that featured the fashion model Daisy Lowe. This was a collaboration with Monkey Kingdom Productions, who later went on to make Made in Chelsea.
In 2009, Goodwin and the Switch team collaborated with Sarah Dillistone at Lime Pictures to make The Season, a constructed reality programme that followed the lives of a group of "saisonnieres" working in the "party capital of the Alps", Val-d'Isère. Lime Pictures later developed the hugely successful The Only Way is Essex.
Revealed..., a journalism and current affairs show which looked at the lives of teens in the UK, presented by Anthony Baxter and Charlotte Ashton, also aired that year, as did Scene Stealers, a "life swap" style format in which teenagers pretend they belong to a different "teen tribe", which Charlie Brooker described as ‘harmless fun’; and docusoap Mission Beach, which followed eight British teenagers taking part in California's renowned Junior Lifeguard Programme.
Meta4orce was an animated interactive detective series about a team of four genetically altered investigators solving high-profile crime cases in the flooded city of London in 2034. It was written by Peter Milligan, a veteran graphic novel writer for DC Comics and Marvel.
Off the Hook was a comedy series about a group of first year university students getting their first taste of independence, starring Jonathan Bailey.
The following year, BBC Switch teamed up with Firecracker Productions to create Single, Together, Whatever, a factual programme which followed a group of teenagers over a three-month period, taking a look at their relationships. The same year, Goodwin’s team collaborated with RSA (Ridley Scott’s production company) to produce Myths, a series of five-minute episodes which told the story of the classic Greek Myths in a modern setting. Popatron, a sitcom based behind the scenes of a celebrity entertainment show also aired that year, as did Shelfstackers, another comedy about four teenagers working at a supermarket.
The last BBC Switch programme was the feature-length musical, Rules of Love, which premiered on 18 December 2010, which was the first modern British urban musical to be made.
### Online
The BBC Switch website was a portal linking teens to content across the BBC including BBC Radio 1, BBC Radio 1Xtra, BBC Blast, and EastEnders.
BBC Switch was an innovative brand within the BBC in that several of its shows were broadcast across television, radio and online. The 5:19 Show, for example, (a television show hosted by Tom Deacon and AJ Odudu) aired online from Monday to Friday at 5:19pm, but then also had a slot on BBC Two. The show was named 5:19 in recognition of the time most teenagers log-on.
In 2008, Goodwin commissioned Benched, a quickfire teen match-making show that took place on a park bench. The programme aired as a series of five-minute "webisodes", filmed on different park benches starring teens from the local area. It was available to watch on the BBC Switch website.
In 2009, Goodwin commissioned and executive produced the BAFTA and international Emmy nominated TV and web series, The Well, a teenage thriller starring Karen Gillan (who later played Amy Pond, assistant to Peter Capaldi’s Doctor Who). The Well aired on BBC Two and extended online to bbc.co.uk/switch, where the audience could immerse themselves further in the story, exploring a spookily atmospheric recreation of the main drama location in a multi-level game.
On Saturday 12 September 2009, the cross-platform Chartjackers aired on BBC 2. This was a documentary that followed four YouTube sensations trying to crowd-source a new track, and get it to number 1. Viewers followed their progress via Twitter and online video blogs, and the result was aired over a half hour on BBC Two. All profits made from the single were donated to Children in Need to help disadvantaged children and young people in the UK.
The Switch brand also included Slink, an online magazine for teenage girls.
### Radio
Switch radio programmes that Goodwin and his team oversaw include The Surgery with Aled and Dr Rhada, a discussion show which focused on issues faced by teenagers and BBC Switch Road Trip with Annie Mac, Nick Grimshaw and Aled Haydn Jones, a musical road trip which took place in live music venues all over the country.
Grimshaw proved a popular choice, largely due to his natural affinity with young people.
Switch was unique in the fact that younger viewers' contributions were also aired. Some were even involved in pre- and post-production roles.
### Closure of BBC Switch
Director general Mark Thompson's strategic review of the corporation's scope and activities included proposals to close the cross media brands BBC Switch and BBC Blast!, which were both aimed at teenagers. In February 2010, The Guardian and The Times newspapers both reported that the BBC Switch website was under threat of closure, in a review of the BBC's online presence.
On 18 December 2010, BBC Switch closed due to a 25% cut in the BBC Online budget, reducing it by £34 million.
### BBC Worldwide
In 2011, following BBC Switch’s closure, Goodwin joined BBC Worldwide to devise a new commercial culture brand, the BBC Culture Club. Under the working title of 'The BBC Culture Club' this project aimed to build a new global BBC Worldwide consumer brand in the Arts, Culture and Film space. Essentially, this new brand was a highly editorialised video on demand service. In this initiative, Goodwin reported to John Smith, who was then Head of BBC Worldwide, and is now Chief Operating Officer for Burberry.
The proposal for BBC Culture Club was that credible key talent would be used to present originated, short-form authoritative pieces to introduce and provide context for the long-form films, TV, radio programming and 3rd party partner content such as exhibitions, festivals and other live events. It was characterised as a high quality British heritage brand (similar to, for example, Burberry or The Economist).
### 40 Partners
In January 2013, after a summer of seed funding, Goodwin set up his own production company come talent agency with chairman Bob Benton, Producer Emma Smithwick and Lawyer Adrian Faulkner.
40 Partners credits include 40 Kids by 20 Women (Channel 5 observational documentary), Witness: Confessions of a Hitman (C&I documentary), Being Mum, and 30 Something (both series of online shorts for AOL with Tess Daly, Rochelle Humes and Richard Bacon).
### AOL
In winter 2016, as head of originals and brand funded video, Goodwin and his 40 Partners non-fiction team were brought in-house to supercharge AOL UK's video ambitions, producing and / or commissioning a range of original series.
### OATH / Verizon Media
In June 2017 Goodwin was director, Video EMEA at Oath (Verizon-owned company that merged AOL and Yahoo!)

==Career==
===BBC head of strategy, DEC===
After working as a media consultant in London at IXL and BBC Ventures for various blue chip companies, Goodwin took on the role of head of strategy for [[BBC]] Drama, Entertainment, Comedy, Children's and Film ("DEC"), reporting to [[Alan Yentob]].<ref>{{Cite web |url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/corporate2/insidethebbc/managementstructure/biographies/yentob_alan |title=BBC - Alan Yentob, Former Creative Director - Inside the BBC |access-date=2019-12-20 |archive-date=2019-01-06 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190106222049/http://www.bbc.co.uk/corporate2/insidethebbc/managementstructure/biographies/yentob_alan |url-status=dead }}</ref> During this time, Goodwin worked closely with BBC programme department heads and other BBC executive directors to develop editorial, business, and financial strategy across DEC programme genres - a circa £500 million production entity that included two digital TV channels and [[BBC Films]].{{cn|date=July 2025}}
Goodwin also lead several pan-BBC projects, including the [[Creative Futures (BBC)|BBC Creative Futures]] Under-18s workstream with [[Andy Parfitt]].<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://www.brunel.ac.uk/__data/assets/pdf_file/0013/112711/andyparfitt.pdf |author-link= Andy Parfitt|first=Andy |last=Parfitt|title=Andy Parfitt, BBC, 5 November 2007 |access-date=2015-07-14 |archive-date=2015-07-23 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150723172058/http://www.brunel.ac.uk/__data/assets/pdf_file/0013/112711/andyparfitt.pdf |url-status=dead }}</ref>
During his time as head of strategy for DEC, Goodwin drove strategy of digital investment into DEC-related programme areas, helping launch some of the first and most successful digital brands of the BBC, including BBC Fictionlab, BBC Collective, and the BBC Film Network.{{cn|date=July 2025}}
In February 2006 Goodwin wrote the BBC's film strategy for Alan Yentob, which included a £100 million boost for the [[British film industry]], in the hope of producing more hits like ''[[Billy Elliot]]''.{{cn|date=July 2025}}
===BBC Switch===
In 2007, in a return to programme-making, Geoff set up [[BBC Switch]], a new BBC brand which was aimed at teenagers.{{cn|date=July 2025}}
BBC Switch represented a step forward for the BBC, not only in that it reached out to the underserved age group of 12- to 17-year-olds, but also in that it was multi-platform to a degree not seen at the BBC before. BBC Switch spanned television and radio, but at its heart was an online presence. Switch had its own website, www.bbc.co.uk/switch, but, importantly, also hosted content on external third party sites, including [[Facebook]] and [[YouTube]].{{cn|date=July 2025}}
Switch's television slot was Saturdays 12pm-2pm on [[BBC Two]]. On radio, Switch occupied 7pm onwards on Sunday evenings,<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.broadcastnow.co.uk/content-focus-bbc-switch/706945.article|title=Content Focus: BBC Switch}}</ref> and online daily from 5pm.{{cn|date=July 2025}}
The team that Goodwin assembled for the development of BBC Switch included [[Emma Smithwick]] and Daniel Heaf. The team reported to [[Jana Bennett]], director of TV, and [[Andy Parfitt]], who at that time was the controller of [[BBC Radio 1|Radio 1]], [[BBC 1 Xtra]] and [[BBC Popular Music]].<ref>{{Cite web |url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/corporate2/insidethebbc/managementstructure/biographies/parfitt_andy.html |title=BBC - Andy Parfitt - Inside the BBC |access-date=2019-12-20 |archive-date=2016-04-10 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160410202235/http://www.bbc.co.uk/corporate2/insidethebbc/managementstructure/biographies/parfitt_andy.html |url-status=dead }}</ref> At the time, Goodwin described BBC Switch as "committed to offering the best entertainment for British teens in a way that's authentic and fresh".<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.theguardian.com/media/2008/dec/11/ridley-scott-bbc|title = Ridley Scott firm makes BBC2 teen series based on Greek myths|website = [[TheGuardian.com]]|date = 11 December 2008}}</ref>
===Television===
Four programmes originally filled the BBC Two slot of Saturdays 12pm-2pm. ''Sound'' was a weekly music entertainment and chat show presented by [[Annie Mac]] and [[Nick Grimshaw]]. ''Falcon Beach'' was a coming-of-age drama about teenagers, their passions, relationships, friends, families and enemies. ''Them'' was a documentary series that explored the different teenage tribes that exist in Britain today. ''The Surgery'', presented by [[Jeff Leach]], was a chat show for BBC Switch. ''The Surgery'' was the television version of ''The Sunday Surgery'', a radio show presented by [[Kelly Osbourne]], which aimed to help teenagers with everyday problems<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/pressoffice/pressreleases/stories/2008/08_august/21/switch.shtml|title = BBC - Press Office - BBC Switch announces activity for Autumn 2008}}</ref>
Switch's flagship programme, and one of the first British dramas to air online, ''[[The Cut (UK TV series)|The Cut]]'', premiered in 2010. ''The Cut'' was unique in that it aired in five-minute webisodes on the Switch website and via YouTube, before showing in an omnibus on BBC Two. Goodwin commissioned and produced ''The Cut'', which ran for forty episodes with great success.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/pressoffice/pressreleases/stories/2009/05_may/14/cut.shtml|title = BBC - Press Office - BBC launches multi-platform soap for teens}}</ref> Goodwin created ''The Cut'' with director/producer Sarah Walker, producer Pete Gibbons and the award-winning writer [[Al Smith]].

# Jesse A. Shipp
Jesse Allison Shipp, Sr. (March 24, 1864, in Cincinnati, Ohio – May 1, 1934, in Jamaica, Queens, New York) was an American actor, playwright, and theatrical director, who is best remembered as a pioneer African-American writer of musical theater in the United States, and as the author of the book upon which the landmark play In Dahomey was based. Shipp played an influential role in expanding black theater beyond its minstrel show origins and is recalled as perhaps the first African-American director of a Broadway performance.
## Biography
### Early years
Born in 1864 in Cincinnati, his father Thomas Shipp was born about 1821 in the slave state of South Carolina. His mother Ellen Shipp was of biracial heritage, and was born around 1830 in the slave state of Kentucky. Sometime prior to the outbreak of the American Civil War both had managed to leave the Southern United States to live in freedom in Ohio.
Shipp attended public school in Cincinnati, graduating from high school at the age of 16. Upon graduation he immediately entered the work force, working as a retail clerk and driving a laundry wagon. In his free time Shipp got together with three of his peers and formed a musical quartet, which sang evenings in the German section of Cincinnati.
### Career
Shipp joined a minstrel show based in Indianapolis, Indiana, but left after three weeks. In 1887 he took his own quartet on the road, and they remained together for the next seven years, achieving success playing in conjunction with a variety of traveling minstrel companies.
Following the disbanding of his quartet in 1894, Shipp became an actor in the traveling black theater of the day, including roles in such popular performance as Uncle Tom's Cabin from 1894 to 1895, John William Isham's Oriental America in 1896 and 1897, and A Trip to Coon-Town from 1897 to 1899.
Shipp was hired by the vaudeville team of Bert Williams and George Walker in 1900 as a stage manager, writer, and performer for their troupe's productions. A series of plays were written in subsequent years for Williams and Walker including books from which the seminal plays In Dahomey and Abyssinia, works noted for better plot development and character development than had been typical of black theatre in the era. Unfortunately for historians of American black theatre, some of Shipp's original treatments have not been preserved, with the book for In Dahomey surviving only in fragments.
Around 1908 Shipp went to work for Robert T. Motts and his Pekin Stock Company of Chicago. Shipp was hired as the resident playwright for the non-touring company. Shipp authored a number of critically acclaimed plays during this interval, but the demands of his employer for a constant stream of fresh fare forced Shipp to increasingly make use of traditional vaudeville forms. Motts would die in July 1911.
By 1910 the Pekin Stock Company was in decline, wracked by competition from other theatres in Chicago, which had begun to supplement their dramatic performances with the showing of movies. Jesse Shipp took over the operation, renaming it the Jesse Shipp Stock Company, employing Sam Corker as permanent stage manager, and making use of many of the remaining Pekin players. A number of plays were staged by the company in the Pekin Theatre, including several written by Shipp. The Jesse Shipp Stock Company was itself disbanded in 1911, however. In 1913, Shipp produced and directed a performance of Gilbert and Sullivan's Mikado for the Howard Theatre in Washington, D.C. The production featured the well-known contralto, Daisy Tapley singing Katisha and Dr. Charles Sumner Wormley playing the title character.
In 1921 Shipp established the second key African-American dramatic club in New York City's Harlem district, the Dressing Room Club. Located at the Harlem Community House on 7th Avenue, the Dressing Room Club declared as its official goals the impressing of the world with "the dignity and economic value of the Negro element of the profession" and preservation of the history of the Negro in theatricals. Over 250 members of New York's black theatre leaders were members of this organization headed by Shipp, including writers, performers, composers, and musicians.
Ship was intimately involved with the Harlem Productions Company in 1925 and 1926 — a group first organized to produce the musical farce Lucky Sambo. Debuting June 6, 1925, nine performances were staged on Broadway at the Colonial Theatre, with Shipp playing the key supervisory role of stage manager.
### Death and legacy
Jesse A. Shipp, Sr. died on May 1, 1934, in Jamaica Hospital in Jamaica, Queens, New York. He had lived with his wife in Richmond Hill, Queens, New York; he was buried at St. Michael's Cemetery in Astoria, Queens, New York.
Shipp has been lauded as a pioneer in moving black theatre beyond its minstrel origins towards a more fully developed artistic form and is remembered as one of the first, if not the first, African-American director of a Broadway performance.
Shipp's son, Jesse A. Shipp, Jr. (1886-1922), followed his father's footsteps into the world of show business as the founder of the Shipp Association, a dramatic booking agency based in Harlem in New York City.

[[File:Shipp-Jesse-A-1910.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Jesse A. Shipp, Sr., American playwright.]]
'''Jesse Allison Shipp, Sr.''' (March 24, 1864, in [[Cincinnati, Ohio]] – May 1, 1934, in [[Jamaica, Queens, New York]])<ref name="NCAB">[https://archive.org/details/nationalcyclopae14newy ''National Cyclopedia of American Biography: Volume 14.''] New York: James T. White and Co., 1910; pg. 244.</ref> was an American actor, [[playwright]], and [[theatrical director]], who is best remembered as a pioneer [[African-American]] writer of [[musical theatre|musical theater]] in the United States, and as the author of the book upon which the landmark play ''[[In Dahomey]]'' was based. Shipp played an influential role in expanding black theater beyond its [[minstrel show]] origins and is recalled as perhaps the first African-American director of a Broadway performance.
==Biography==
===Early years===
Born in 1864 in Cincinnati, his father Thomas Shipp was born about 1821 in the [[slavery in the United States|slave]] state of [[South Carolina]]. His mother Ellen Shipp was of biracial heritage, and was born around 1830 in the slave state of [[Kentucky]].<ref name=UK>[http://www.uky.edu/Libraries/NKAA/record.php?note_id=2224 "Ellen Shipp,"] Notable Kentucky African Americans Database, University of Kentucky, www.uky.edu/</ref> Sometime prior to the outbreak of the [[American Civil War]] both had managed to leave the [[Southern United States]] to live in freedom in Ohio.<ref name=UK />
Shipp attended [[state school|public school]] in Cincinnati, graduating from high school at the age of 16. Upon graduation he immediately entered the work force, working as a [[retail clerk]] and driving a laundry wagon. In his free time Shipp got together with three of his peers and formed a [[quartet|musical quartet]], which sang evenings in the German section of Cincinnati.
===Career===
Shipp joined a [[minstrel]] show based in [[Indianapolis, Indiana]], but left after three weeks.<ref name=NCAB /> In 1887 he took his own quartet on the road, and they remained together for the next seven years, achieving success playing in conjunction with a variety of traveling minstrel companies.
Following the disbanding of his quartet in 1894, Shipp became an actor in the traveling black theater of the day, including roles in such popular performance as ''Uncle Tom's Cabin'' from 1894 to 1895, [[John William Isham]]'s ''Oriental America'' in 1896 and 1897, and ''A Trip to Coon-Town'' from 1897 to 1899.
Shipp was hired by the [[vaudeville]] team of [[Bert Williams]] and [[George Walker (vaudeville)|George Walker]] in 1900 as a stage manager, writer, and performer for their troupe's productions.<ref name=NCAB /> A series of plays were written in subsequent years for Williams and Walker including books from which the seminal plays ''[[In Dahomey]]'' and ''[[Abyssinia (1906 musical)|Abyssinia]]'', works noted for better plot development and character development than had been typical of black theatre in the era.<ref name=NCAB /> Unfortunately for historians of American black theatre, some of Shipp's original treatments have not been preserved, with the book for ''In Dahomey'' surviving only in fragments.<ref>Jim Beckerman, [https://web.archive.org/web/20160314211200/https://www.highbeam.com/doc/1P1-22253835.html "Piecing Together a Lost Art,"] ''Bergen County Record,'' July 11, 1999. (Subscription required.)</ref>
Around 1908 Shipp went to work for [[Robert T. Motts]] and his Pekin Stock Company of [[Chicago]].<ref name=AATD164>Bernard L. Peterson, Jr., "Dressing Room Club," in ''The African American Theatre Directory, 1816-1960: A Comprehensive Guide to Early Black Theatre Organizations, Companies, Theatres, and Performing Groups.'' Westport, CT: Greenwood Press, 1997; pg. 164.</ref> Shipp was hired as the resident playwright for the non-touring company.<ref name=AATD164 /> Shipp authored a number of critically acclaimed plays during this interval, but the demands of his employer for a constant stream of fresh fare forced Shipp to increasingly make use of traditional vaudeville forms.<ref name=AATD164 /> Motts would die in July 1911.<ref name=AATD164 />
By 1910 the Pekin Stock Company was in decline, wracked by competition from other theatres in Chicago, which had begun to supplement their dramatic performances with the showing of movies.<ref name=AATD181>Peterson, "Jesse Shipp Stock Company," in ''The African American Theatre Directory, 1816-1960,'' pg. 181.</ref> Jesse Shipp took over the operation, renaming it the Jesse Shipp Stock Company, employing Sam Corker as permanent stage manager, and making use of many of the remaining Pekin players.<ref name=AATD181 /> A number of plays were staged by the company in the [[Pekin Theatre]], including several written by Shipp.<ref name=AATD181 /> The Jesse Shipp Stock Company was itself disbanded in 1911, however.<ref name=AATD181 /> In 1913, Shipp produced and directed a performance of Gilbert and Sullivan's ''Mikado'' for the Howard Theatre in Washington, D.C. The production featured the well-known contralto, [[Daisy Tapley]] singing Katisha and Dr. Charles Sumner Wormley playing the title character.
In 1921 Shipp established the second key African-American dramatic club in New York City's [[Harlem]] district, the Dressing Room Club.<ref name=AATD59>Peterson, "Dressing Room Club," in ''The African American Theatre Directory, 1816-1960,'' pg. 59.</ref> Located at the Harlem Community House on 7th Avenue, the Dressing Room Club declared as its official goals the impressing of the world with "the dignity and economic value of the Negro element of the profession" and preservation of the history of the Negro in theatricals.<ref name=AATD59 /> Over 250 members of New York's black theatre leaders were members of this organization headed by Shipp, including writers, performers, composers, and musicians.<ref name=AATD59 />
Ship was intimately involved with the Harlem Productions Company in 1925 and 1926 — a group first organized to produce the musical farce ''[[Lucky Sambo]].''<ref name=AATD90>Peterson, "Harlem Productions Company," in ''The African American Theatre Directory, 1816-1960,'' pg. 90.</ref> Debuting June 6, 1925, nine performances were staged on [[Broadway theatre|Broadway]] at the [[Colonial Theatre (Broadway)|Colonial Theatre]], with Shipp playing the key supervisory role of stage manager.<ref name=AATD90 />
===Death and legacy===
Jesse A. Shipp, Sr. died on May 1, 1934, in [[Jamaica Hospital]] in [[Jamaica, Queens]], [[New York City|New York]]. He had lived with his wife in [[Richmond Hill, Queens]], [[New York City|New York]]; he was buried at [[St. Michael's Cemetery (New York)|St. Michael's Cemetery]] in [[Astoria, Queens, New York]].<ref> "Jesse Shipp Dies; Actor Noted as Negro Dramatist", Brooklyn ''Daily Eagle,'' May 3, 1934, 17</ref>
Shipp has been lauded as a pioneer in moving black theatre beyond its [[minstrel]] origins towards a more fully developed artistic form and is remembered as one of the first, if not the first, African-American director of a Broadway performance.<ref>Peterson, "Williams and Walker Company," ''The African American Theatre Directory, 1816-1960,'' pg. 203.</ref>
Shipp's son, Jesse A. Shipp, Jr. (1886-1922), followed his father's footsteps into the world of show business as the founder of the Shipp Association, a dramatic booking agency based in [[Harlem]] in [[New York City]].<ref name=UK />

# Gitte Seeberg
Gitte Seeberg (born 25 June 1960 in Copenhagen) is a Danish politician, lawyer, and current secretary general of the Danish branch of the WWF. She was a member of the Danish Folketinget parliament for the Conservative People's Party and New Alliance, and has previously been a Member of the European Parliament.
## Biography
Seeberg earned a Degree in law from Copenhagen University in 1986. She then worked as a commercial property agent and ran an independent legal practice.
In 1994, Seeberg was elected to represent the Conservative People's Party in the Danish Folketinget parliament. The trio of her, Lene Espersen, Henriette Kjær were seen as a breath of fresh air to the Conservatives, while political rivals nicknamed them "April, May, and June", after Daisy Duck's nieces in Disney comics. She held a number of speaker positions for the Conservatives, among them financial, foreign, and EU policy, and was vice-chairman of the parliamentary party group from 2001 to 2004.
In the 2004 European Parliament election, Seeberg was elected to represent the Conservative People's Party in the European Parliament. She was a Member of the Bureau of the European People's Party.
She left the Conservative People's Party on 7 May 2007, to be a co-founder of the party New Alliance, alongside Naser Khader and Anders Samuelsen. She returned to the Folketinget following the 2007 Danish parliamentary election in November 2007, as she helped New Alliance gain five parliamentary seats. On 29 January 2008 she left the party in protest against the party's status as a right-wing party, which conflicted with her own original desire to form a centrist party rejecting the influence of the Danish People's Party.
In July 2008, she announced that she would leave parliament as of September 2008 to become secretary general of the WWF.

# Agaricaceae
The Agaricaceae are a family of basidiomycete fungi and include the genus Agaricus, as well as basidiomycetes previously classified in the families Tulostomataceae, Lepiotaceae, and Lycoperdaceae.
## Taxonomy
The family Agaricaceae was published by French botanist François Fulgis Chevallier in 1826. It is named after the type genus Agaricus, originally circumscribed by Carl Linnaeus in his 1753 work Species Plantarum. In his authoritative 1986 classification of the Agaricales, Rolf Singer divided the Agaricaceae into four tribes distinguished largely by spore color: Leucocoprineae, Agariceae, Lepioteae, and Cystodermateae. Genera once classified in the families Tulostomataceae, Battarreaceae, Lycoperdaceae, and Mycenastraceae have since been moved to the Agaricaceae based on molecular phylogenetics studies. According to a standard reference text, the Agaricaceae contains 85 genera and 1340 species.
## Description
Agaricaceae species use a wide variety of fruit body morphology. Although the pileate form (i.e., with a cap and stipe) is predominant, gasteroid and secotioid forms are known. In pileate species, the gills are typically thin, and free from attachment to the stipe. Caps are scurfy to smooth, and range from roughly flat to umbonate. They typically have a centrally attached stipe and a membrane-like partial veil. The species formerly classified in the family Lycoperdaceae are also known as the "true puffballs". Their fruiting bodies are round and are composed of a tough skin surrounding a mass of spores. When they mature, the skin splits open and they release their spores.
The spore print color of Agaricaceae species is highly variable, ranging from white to greenish to ochraceous to pink or sepia; rusty-brown or cinnamon brown colours are absent. Microscopically, the spore surface ranges from smooth to ornamented, and the presence of a germ pore is variable. Amyloidity (i.e. sensitivity to staining in Melzer's reagent) is also variable. The basidia (spore-bearing cells) are usually small, four-spored, and may have interspersed cystidia.
## Genera
The extinct genus Coprinites is one of four known Agaricaceae genera in the fossil record. Others include Aureofungus, Protomycena, and Archaeomarasmius. Archaeomarasmius leggeti, from Atlantic Coastal Plain amber, is 90–94 Ma); the other fossil genera are from Dominican amber and date to 15–20 Ma.
The family currently includes the following genera:
- Agaricus
- Barcheria
- Bovista
- Calbovista (previously in family Lycoperdaceae)
- Calvatia
- Chamaemyces
- Chlorophyllum
- Clarkeinda
- Coniolepiota

## Ecology
The Agaricaceae are widely distributed. Most species are saprobic and prefer grassland and woodland habitats. Genera Leucoagaricus and Leucocoprinus are known to be cultivated by fungus-growing ants in ant-fungus mutualism.
## Economic significance
The genus Agaricus includes some species that are cultivated commercially throughout the world. The common "button mushroom", Agaricus bisporus, is the most widely cultivated edible mushroom. Agaricus blazei is a well-known medicinal mushroom used for a number of therapeutic and medicinal purposes. Several species are poisonous, such as some Lepiota, Agaricus sect. Xanthodermatei and Chlorophyllum species .

The '''Agaricaceae''' are a [[family (biology)|family]] of [[basidiomycete]] fungi and include the [[genus]] ''[[Agaricus]]'', as well as basidiomycetes previously classified in the families Tulostomataceae, Lepiotaceae, and Lycoperdaceae.
==Taxonomy==
The family Agaricaceae was published by French botanist [[François Fulgis Chevallier]] in 1826.<ref name="Chevallier 1826"/> It is named after the [[type (biology)|type genus]] ''[[Agaricus]]'', originally [[circumscription (taxonomy)|circumscribed]] by [[Carl Linnaeus]] in his 1753 work ''[[Species Plantarum]]''. In his authoritative 1986 [[biological classification|classification]] of the [[Agaricales]], [[Rolf Singer]] divided the Agaricaceae into four [[tribe (biology)|tribes]] distinguished largely by spore color: ''Leucocoprineae'', ''Agariceae'', ''Lepioteae'', and ''Cystodermateae''.<ref name="Singer 1986"/> Genera once classified in the families Tulostomataceae, Battarreaceae, Lycoperdaceae, and Mycenastraceae have since been moved to the Agaricaceae based on [[molecular phylogenetics]] studies.<ref name="urlMycoBank: Agaricaceae"/> According to a standard reference text, the Agaricaceae contains 85 genera and 1340 species.<ref name="Kirk 2008"/>
==Description==
Agaricaceae species use a wide variety of [[basidiocarp|fruit body]] [[morphology (biology)|morphology]]. Although the pileate form (i.e., with a [[pileus (mycology)|cap]] and [[stipe (mycology)|stipe]]) is predominant, [[gasteroid]] and [[secotioid]] forms are known. In pileate species, the [[lamella (mycology)|gills]] are typically thin, and free from attachment to the stipe. Caps are [[wikt:scurfy|scurfy]] to smooth, and range from roughly flat to [[umbo (mycology)|umbonate]]. They typically have a centrally attached stipe and a membrane-like [[partial veil]].<ref name="Cannon 2007"/> The species formerly classified in the family Lycoperdaceae are also known as the "true [[puffball]]s". Their fruiting bodies are round and are composed of a tough skin surrounding a mass of spores. When they mature, the skin splits open and they release their spores.
The [[spore print]] color of Agaricaceae species is highly variable, ranging from white to greenish to ochraceous to pink or sepia; rusty-brown or cinnamon brown colours are absent. Microscopically, the spore surface ranges from smooth to ornamented, and the presence of a [[germ pore]] is variable. [[Amyloid (mycology)|Amyloidity]] (i.e. sensitivity to [[staining]] in [[Melzer's reagent]]) is also variable. The [[basidia]] (spore-bearing cells) are usually small, four-spored, and may have interspersed [[cystidia]].<ref name="Cannon 2007"/>
==Genera==
{{main|List of Agaricaceae genera}}
The extinct genus ''[[Coprinites]]'' is one of four known Agaricaceae genera in the fossil record. Others include ''[[Aureofungus]]'', ''[[Protomycena]]'', and ''[[Archaeomarasmius]]''. ''Archaeomarasmius leggeti'', from [[Atlantic Coastal Plain]] amber, is 90–94 [[Million years ago|Ma]]); the other fossil genera are from [[Dominican amber]] and date to 15–20 Ma.<ref name="Hibbett 2003"/>
The family currently includes the following genera:

# Ateliers d'Automobiles et d'Aviation
Ateliers d'Automobiles et d'Aviation was a Paris based automobile and commercial vehicle manufacturer between 1919 and 1920. The French manufacturer was noted for electric cars.
## History of the business
Production of cars and light trucks began at the company's Paris workshops in the rue de Berri, in 1919. The name Ateliers d'Automobiles et d'Aviation was generally reduced to AAA'.
With the First World War having ended only months earlier, there was at the time little contact between auto producers in France and those in Germany. There is no connection between Paris-based Ateliers d'Automobiles et d'Aviation (AAA) and the Berlin company AG für Akkumulatoren- und Automobilbau which between 1919 and 1922 was also producing cars under the name "AAA".
## The cars
The cars were powered by electric motors. The AAA was a large four door saloon. The cars advertised featured closed bodies with the simple square shape characteristic of 1920s car designs.
At the 1919 Paris Motor Show the manufacturer offered two different chassis lengths of 3,100 mm (120 in) and 3,500 mm (140 in), the two models being designated the "AAA 6A Serie" and the "AAA 10A Luxe". The price of 55,000 francs for the larger car even in bare chassis form was considered very high. However, the price included a ten-year "Mechanical guarantee", which was at the time exceptional. The top speed quoted was 45 km/h (28 mph) and the range between charges was given as 120 km (75 miles). Power storage involved accumulator batteries with 42 cells.

# Oxyderces viridipes
Oxyderces viridipes is a species of broad-nosed weevils in the family Curculionidae. This species is endemic to Colombia, commonly found in Medellín and surrounding areas, but has been incidentally collected in the United States.
## Taxonomy
Oxyderces viridipes was described for the first time by Carl Henrik Boheman in 1840, page 179, under the genus Platyomus. It belongs to the subfamily Entiminae, tribe Eustylini.
The taxonomic status of the species requires verification, since it can be easily confused with the genus Compsus.
The holotype for Oxyderces viridipes is housed at the Swedish Museum of Natural History (NHRS-JLKB000022891; identified as Compsus viridipes).
## Description
The original diagnosis, in Latin, offered by Boheman is as follows:
Oblongus, niger, squamulis laete virescentibus tectus, capite rostroque
cupreo-squamosis; fronte foveolata, rostro medio utrinque impresso;
thorace oblongo, dorso late parum profunde impresso, rude minus
crebre rugoso; elytris dorso depressis, sat profunde punctato-striatis,
interstitiis alternis modice elevatis, sutura late albo-squamosis, apice
ipso mucronatis, pedibus squamulis viridi-nitidis tectis.— Boheman, Genera et species Curculionidum, cum synonymia hujus familae species novae., p. 179
According to this diagnosis, the species can be recognized by the following features: dense cover of green scales; head and rostrum with cupreous scales; frons with a fovea, rostrum medially depressed; pronotum slightly depressed medially, coarsely rugose; elytra dorsally flattened, with moderately marked elytral punctures, with alternate interstriae moderately elevated, sutural region covered by white scales and apices projected; legs covered by shiny green scales.
## Distribution
Oxyderces viridipes is endemic to Colombia. The type locality is Antioquia and there are plenty of records in iNaturalist from Medellín and surrounding municipalities.
The species has been both, intercepted at ports of entry and recorded in iNaturalist from the United States.

# Roak Block
The Roak Block is an historic commercial-industrial building at 144-170 Main Street in Auburn, Maine. Built in 1871-72 as a combined commercial and industrial space, this Second Empire style block was at that time the largest commercial building in the entire state. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.
## Description and history
The Roak Block stands on the east side of Auburn's commercial Main Street, near its junction with Mechanics Row. It is a long 3-1/2 story masonry building, built of brick and stone, with a mansard roof, studded with dormers, providing a full fourth floor in the attic level. The building is 36 bays long, divided into nine sections of four bays. On the ground floor, each section houses a retail storefront except the center one, which provides access to the main building lobby. The storefronts typically consist of display windows flanking a recessed entry. Second floor windows are set in round-arch openings with stone keystones and shoulders, with a narrow stringcourse acting as a sill. The third floor windows have segmented-arch openings, but are otherwise similar. The dormers on the steep roof section have shallow gabled roofs, with drip moulding around the windows.
The block was built in 1871-72 to a design by the Lewiston firm of Stevens and Coombs, for Jacob Roak, a shoe manufacturer and leading businessman in the city. At the time of its construction, it was the largest building of its type erected in the state. The upper levels of the building were designed as spaces for incubating businesses related to shoe manufacturing, where small businesses could work until they were successful enough to require larger quarters. The building was used in this fashion for 90 years. Its upper floors have been converted for use as senior housing.
