Sestrunj je otok u Jadranskom moru, na hrvatskom dijelu Jadrana.

Otok Sestrunj spada među manje otoke zadarskog otočja.
Neposredno je okružen "kanalima" i to Sestrunjskim na jugoistoku, Rivanjskim sa sjeverozapada i Srednjim s juga. Kako je središnje položen i visinom istaknut, s njega se pruža izvanredan pogled na dio zadarskog priobalja i otočja.

Od Zadra je udaljen 15 km zračne linije, a udaljenost između Zadra i luke Kavlin na južnom dijelu otoka je 12 milja.

Dosadašnji pokušaji da ga se svrsta u neku od skupina otoka zadarskog arhipelaga, najčešće su završavali izdvajanjem tzv. sestrunjske otočne skupine kojoj se priključuju Rivanj i Žverinac s pripadajućim otocima.
Otok spada u male otoke naše obale, te s površinom od 15,12 km² tek je deseti u zadarskom arhipelagu i trideseti u RH.

Za život stanovnika od presudne je važnosti njegov položaj i veličina. Relativno slaba povezanost sa Zadrom, što se u zadnje vrijeme nastoji popraviti, te slaba povezanost s drugim mjestima na obližnjim otocima, uvjetuju da Sestrunj ima malo značenje među otocima.
Iako to nije nikad bilo ekstremno istaknuto, u periodima povijesno-geografskog razvoja, Sestrunj razvija aktivnosti koje se nadopunjuju s aktivnostima susjednih otoka i pruža mu kontinuitet naseljenosti i zadržavanje stanovništva od pretpovijesti do danas.

Stanovništvo

S obzirom na malu površinu i na skućene mogućnosti agrarne valorizacije, Sestrunj je oduvijek bio jedan od populacijsko najmanjih naselja na zadarskim otocima. Kako je s otokom Rivnjom predstavljao jedinstvenu crkvenu župu, često se u povijesnim podacima tretiraju i kao jedinstveno naselje.

Drugi svjetski rat na otoku je uvjetovao značajan pad stanovnika, a smatra se da je otok prije toga dosegnuo svoj populacijski maksimum. Svi sljedeći popisi utvrdili su pad stanovnika, osim popisa 1971. godine.

Sestrunj potvrđuje znanstvenu činjenicu da se društveno-ekonomske prilike manjih otoka više odražavaju na stanovništvo nego na velikim otocima, što dovodi do znatnijih demografskih oscilacija i populacijskih stresova.

Izrazito visoke stope smanjenja stanovništva na otoku iza 1948. godine u neposrednoj su vezi s negativnim prirodnim priraštajem i mehaničkim kretanjem stanovnika na otoku.

Znatno izraženija stopa mortaliteta od stope nataliteta rezultira negativnom stopom prirodnog kretanja.

Koliko su god one posljedica izrazito loše dobne strukture, a s time u vezi i smanjenog vitaliteta i fertiliteta pučanstva, toliko se ujedno pojavljuju i kao uzrok atrofiranja dobne strukture.

Također je i emigracija, kao posljedica i kao uzrok mijenjanja demografskih struktura otoka lako uočljiva i izrazito negativnog migracijskog salda u promatranom periodu.

Kao i na susjednim otocima zadarskog arhipelaga, ovakvo stanje ukazuje na stanovništvo koje se našlo u nezaustavljivom procesu prirodnog odumiranja i u kojem nema više vlastite prirodne snage za opstanak.

Dobno-spolna struktura

Struktura prema dobi govori o poražavajućoj demografskoj situaciji na otoku. Brojčano su opale sve dobne skupine, ponajviše mlada i zrela.

Mlado stanovništvo na otoku 1981. godine predstavlja svega 9,4 % stanovništva, što je ispod svakog minimuma, zrelo 31,3 % što je izrazito malo, a staro s udjelom od čak 59,3 % najočitije predstavlja ostarjelu, nereproducirajuću demografsku masu.

Pojava da uopće nema muške djece do 10 godina starosti, da nedostaje ženska populacija između 20 i 40 godina i da, brojčano slabije, hipertrofiraju dobne skupine iznad 65 godina, govore da je vitalitet stanovništva drastično smanjen, fertilitet praktično ne postoji, a mortalitet, uz iseljavanje postaje glavni i najutjecajniji činilac promjene stanovnika.

Na dobno spolnoj piramidi iz 1981.godine uočljiva je još nekakva raspodjela muško – ženskih omjera i relativna raspodjela stanovništva karakteristična za etapu laganog odumiranja stanovnika na otoku. Na otoku je bilo 46 muškaraca ili 47,9 % ukupnog stanovništva i 50 žena ili 52,1 % ukupnog stanovništva popisanog te godine.

Na popisu 2001. godine dobno spolna piramida pokazuje drastičnu promjenu u izgledu same piramide. Prvih 40 godina kod žena nema mlađeg stanovništva, a kod muškaraca je postotak vrlo mali pretežno radi poticaja koji pokušavaju mlade zadržat ili vratit na otoke.

Osim tog iz slike se može ustanovit da je prevladalo staro stanovništvo i da nema sumnje da stanovništvo odumire. Popisano je 28 muškaraca (58,33 %) i 20 žena (41.67 %), tj. 48 stanovnika na cijelom otoku. Rezultat ovih brojeva je da se stanovništvu na otoku u 20 godina smanjilo za cca. 50 %.

Ekonomska struktura

Otok obilježavaju tijekom 20. stoljeća veoma nagle i gotovo predvidive izmjene u ekonomskoj strukturi stanovništva. Od prostora čije je pučanstvo sve do početka 20-tog stoljeća bilo usmjereno najvećim dijelom na rad u poljoprivredi, Sestrunj se transformirao u otok s relativno malo aktivnog stanovništva.

Poljoprivredno stanovništvo sačinjavalo ja glavninu stanovništva otoka sve do iza II svjetskog rata. Još je 1953.g. na otoku bilo 52,2 % ili 196 stanovnika vezano za poljoprivredu. Već od 1961.g. broj naglo pada na 68 što je bilo samo 21,1 % ukupnog stanovništva.

Godine 1971. popisom je ustanovljeno svega 18 poljoprivrednika (5,1 %) što je u odnosu na druge izvore prihoda (npr. rad u inozemstvu) bilo zanemarujuće, iako se obrada maslina, loza i povrće vodila kao usputna djelatnost za "krpanje kraja s krajem".

Godine 1981. broj aktivnog stanovništva naglo pada što je posljedica izrazite emigracije i traženja posla u Zadru. Većina se obitelji premješta u Zadar i tamo gradi novi život, a na otoku ostaje samo staro stanovništvo i nešto aktivnog stanovništva u srednjim dobnim skupinama.

2001.godine stopa aktivnog stanovništva je ista, međutim na otoku je upola manje stanovnika i više nema izražene ijedne gospodarske aktivnosti. Broj aktivnog stanovništva je 10 jer se poticajima pokušava vratit i zadržat mlade na otoku te se iz priloženog vidi da se potakao opet razvoj trgovine i ugostiteljstva.

Demografsku sliku Sestrunja koju je probudilo novorođeno dijete dokumentirala je Ljiljana Bunjevac Filipović u dokumentarnom filmu 'Ima jedan otok... (2008.), čija je scenaristica i redateljica.

Alexis Margaret Herman (born July 16, 1947) is an American politician who served as the 23rd U.S. Secretary of Labor under President Bill Clinton. Herman was the first African-American to hold the position. Prior to serving as Secretary, she was Assistant to the President and Director of the White House Office of Public Engagement.

Herman grew up in Mobile, Alabama. After college, she worked to improve employment opportunities for black laborers and women. She then joined the administration of Jimmy Carter, working as director of the Labor Department's Women's Bureau. She became active in the Democratic party, working in the campaigns of Jesse Jackson and then serving as chief of staff for the Democratic National Committee under Ronald H. Brown. Upon the election of Bill Clinton, she joined his cabinet in 1997.

Following the defeat of Al Gore in the 2000 presidential election, Herman remained active in Democratic politics, in addition to her participation in the private sector, serving on the boards of corporations such as Coca-Cola and Toyota.

Early life and education
Herman was born on July 16, 1947, in Mobile, Alabama, the daughter of politician Alex Herman and schoolteacher Gloria Caponis, and raised in a Catholic household. Her father became Alabama's first black ward leader. She later recounted how members of the white supremacist group, the Ku Klux Klan, assaulted her father when she was five years old. When Herman was growing up in Mobile, schools remained racially segregated. Her parents opted to send Alexis to parochial school, in part because the teachers included white nuns and priests, and thus would expose her to greater diversity.

Herman attended the Heart of Mary High School. As a sophomore, she was suspended for questioning the diocese's exclusion of black students from religious pageants in which white students participated. Following a week of objection from the parents of Herman's fellow black classmates, she was re-admitted.

After graduating from high school, Herman attended Edgewood College in Madison, Wisconsin, and Spring Hill College in Mobile. She transferred to Xavier University of Louisiana in New Orleans, where she became an active member of the Gamma Alpha Chapter of the Delta Sigma Theta sorority and graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in Sociology in 1969.

Career
After college, Herman returned to Mobile to help desegregate their parochial schools, including the school she herself attended. She was then a social worker with Catholic charities in Pascagoula, Mississippi, where she advocated for they city's shipyard to offer training to unskilled black laborers. After Pascagoula, Herman moved to Atlanta, Georgia where she worked as a director of the Southern Regional Council's Black Women's Employment Program, a program designed to promote minority women into managerial or technical jobs.

Later, working at New York based consulting firm RTP, Herman led programs designed to provide apprenticeships for women in nontraditional jobs. At RTP, she met Ray Marshall. After Jimmy Carter won the Presidency in 1977, he and his incoming Labor Secretary Marshall asked Herman to be director of the Labor Department's Women's Bureau. At age 29, she was the youngest person to hold the position, which required her to work towards improving business opportunities for women. She worked to encourage corporations to hire more minority women, with companies like Coca-Cola, Delta Airlines, and General Motors making increased diversity a priority in their hiring process.

In 1981, at the end of the Carter administration, Herman left her job in the Labor Department and founded the consulting firm, A.M. Herman & Associates. Herman and the firm worked with corporations on a variety of marketing and management issues, including how to develop training programs, marketing strategies, and organizational strategies. She managed the convention team for Jesse Jackson in his 1984 and 1988 bids for the Democratic Party's presidential nomination. Her role working for Jackson's campaign led Herman to serve as chief of staff to Democratic National Committee Chairman Ronald H. Brown, and later as vice chair of the 1992 Democratic National Convention.

Director of the Office of Public Liaison

After Bill Clinton's victory in the 1992 Presidential election, Herman became deputy director of the Presidential Transition Office. Clinton then appointed her director of the White House Office of Public Liaison, where she was responsible for the administration's relations with interest groups. In that role, Herman repeatedly organized informal dinners to advance White House initiatives or assuage key groups. She earned the support of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and the Congressional Black Caucus as part of her outreach efforts. Herman also earned the respect of members of the business community as part of her effort to gain support for the Clinton Administration's trade deal, the North American Free Trade Agreement. Her time as director also included the death of Commerce Secretary, and Herman's former boss at the Democratic National Committee, Ronald Brown in a plane crash. As director, Herman made arrangements for public and private grieving following the death. The tragedy strengthened Herman's bond with Present Clinton, who like Herman had been close to Brown.

Secretary of Labor
In 1996, President Clinton announced his intention to nominate Herman as Secretary of Labor to replace outgoing Secretary Robert Reich. Labor unions publicly supported the nomination, although they had mostly supported other potential nominees such as Harris Wofford, Esteban Edward Torres, and Alan Wheat. Herman's Senate confirmation was delayed twice. The first resulted from questions regarding her role in organizing White House coffees Clinton used as fundraisers. The second was because Senate Republicans refused to allow a vote on her nomination, as part of their opposition to a proposed executive order related to federal construction projects, which Clinton eventually abandoned. With the delays over, the Senate Labor Committee held its hearing on her nomination on March 18, 1997. Then on April 30, 1997, the Senate voted to confirm by a vote of 85–13. Herman was sworn in on May 9, 1997. She became the first African-American, and the fifth woman, to serve in the position.

As Secretary of Labor, Herman oversaw the Department of Labor, which at the time employed 17,000 people and operated on a $39 billion annual budget. The Department of Labor is tasked with enforcing a variety of workplace laws and regulations, including safety issues and anti-discrimination. During Herman's tenure, American unemployment was at its lowest level in decades.

She earned praise from her peers for her handling of the 1997 United Parcel Service (UPS) workers strike, the largest strike in the United States in two decades. After the strike began in August, Herman met privately with the Teamsters' president and the UPS chairman to frame the issues. She was an instrumental mediator in the talks, and the strike was settled after 15 days. Herman's role in resolving the strike raised her public profile as she began to pursue her agenda as Secretary.

As secretary, Herman supported the 1996 and 1997 raises to the minimum wage, increasing it by $0.90 to $5.15 per hour by September 1997. Herman argued the wage hike increased the buying power of workers. She later opposed a 1999 Republican supported plan to raise the minimum wage over three years, instead supporting a two-year time-table for an increase. Herman also opposed the legislation as it included tax cuts without offsets.

Among Herman's responsibilities as secretary was the enforcement of child labor laws. During her tenure, the Department of Labor fined toy store chain Toys "R" Us $200,000 for violating laws restricting the type of work that may be done, and the number of hours that may be worked by underage employees. It found more than 300 teenage employees were working more and later hours than permitted, and Toys "R" Us agreed to stop the practices.

Herman supported the United States' participation in the International Labor Organization's Child Labor Convention, a treaty designed to protect children under 18 years old from slavery, trafficking, bondage, and other abuses. She also defended the United States' support of a provision to allow for voluntary military service of those under 18 years old, a practice allowed in the United States, Great Britain, Germany, and the Netherlands. Opponents, including other nations, trade unions, and Amnesty International urged tougher provisions; however, Herman contended the focus of the treaty should be on forced labor, not voluntary military service.

Attorney General Janet Reno appointed Independent Council Ralph I. Lancaster Jr., in May 1998, to investigate Herman after businessman Laurent J. Yene alleged she accepted kickbacks while working at the White House. Reno was skeptical of Yene's allegations following a preliminary FBI investigation, but she believed the Independent Council law obligated her to appoint independent council where she could not affirm the claims were without merit. Following a twenty-three month investigation, Independent Council Lancaster concluded that Herman had broken no laws and cleared her of all wrongdoing. She was the fifth Clinton cabinet officer to be investigated by independent counsel, and the fourth cleared of all wrongdoing. The Independent Council investigations of the cabinet members cost $95 million and did not uncover any felonies, leading Congress to allow the Independent Counsel Act to expire in June 1999 without re-authorization.

Herman was active in Al Gore's 2000 campaign for president. During the Florida election recount, Herman was part of the team planning a transition to a Gore Administration. ABC News and The New York Times considered her a likely candidate to remain in Gore's White House if he won. Elaine Chao replaced her as Secretary of Labor in the George W. Bush administration.

Post-government

Herman served as co-chair of Democratic presidential nominee John Kerry's transition team during the 2004 presidential election. In 2005, Howard Dean, serving as Democratic National Committee Chairman, appointed Herman and lawyer James Roosevelt, Jr. co-chairs of its Rules and Bylaws Committee. The position put Herman and Roosevelt at the center of a dispute between the campaigns of democratic primary candidates Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton over whether to seat delegates from Michigan and Florida at the 2008 Democratic National Convention. Herman endorsed Hillary Clinton in the 2016 Democratic Party Presidential primaries and served as Deputy Parliamentarian at the 2016 Democratic National Convention.

From 2001 to 2006, Herman was chairwoman of The Coca-Cola Company's Human Resources Task Force. The following year, Coca-Cola made her a director. Herman served on Toyota's Diversity Advisory Board. In 2006, the company appointed her to head a special task force to ensure the company's compliance with anti-discrimination standards following the resignation of Toyota North America's CEO, after being named the defendant in a sexual harassment lawsuit. Herman served on the boards of other major companies, including Cummins, MGM Resorts International, Entergy, Sodexo, and is the chairman and CEO of New Ventures, Inc.

In 2010, Herman was appointed to the board of the Clinton Bush Haiti Fund, a charitable organization founded by Bill Clinton and George W. Bush to aid Haiti following a magnitude 7.0 Mw earthquake in January of that year. Herman has also been involved with civic groups including the National Urban League and the National Epilepsy Foundation. She has been awarded more than 20 honorary doctorate degrees from academic institutions.

Personal life
Herman was Queen of Carnival for the Mobile Area Mardi Gras Association in 1974. Her father had served as King of Carnival in his youth.

Herman married physician Charles Franklin Jr. in February 2000 at the Washington National Cathedral. Franklin had three children from previous marriages. He died in 2014 following an extended illness.

Jonathan Mayhew (8 de octubre de 1720-9 de julio de 1766) fue un destacado estadounidense  Ministro congregacional en Old West Church, Boston, Massachusetts.

Primeros años
Mayhew nació en Martha's Vineyard, siendo el quinto descendiente de  Thomas Mayhew (1592-1682), uno de los primeros colonos y concesionario (1641) de Martha's Vineyard y las islas adyacentes. Thomas Mayhew, Jr. (1622-1657), su hijo de él, John (m. 1689), y el hijo de John, Experience Mayhew (1673-1758), estaban activos como misioneros entre los indios de Marthas Vineyard y sus alrededores.

Mayhew se graduó de Harvard College en 1744 y en 1749 recibió el título de D.D. de la Universidad de Aberdeen. Entonces tenía tantos puntos de vistas liberales en teología que cuando iba a ser ordenado ministro de la West Church en Boston en 1747, solo dos ministros asistieron al primer concilio llamado a la ordenación, y era necesario convocar un segundo concilio. La predicación de Mayhew hizo de él y su iglesia prácticamente la primera  Unitaria Iglesia congregacional en Nueva Inglaterra, aunque nunca fue oficialmente unitaria. He predicado la estricta unidad de Dios, la naturaleza subordinada de Cristo y la salvación por carácter.

Puntos de vista políticos
En política, Mayhew se opuso amargamente a la Ley del Sello de 1765, e instó a la necesidad de la unión (o comunión) colonial para asegurar las libertades coloniales. Fue famoso, en parte, por sus sermones electorales de 1750 y 1754 que defendían los derechos estadounidenses: la causa de la libertad y el derecho y el deber de resistir la tiranía; otros sermones famosos incluyeron "The Snare Broken", 1766. Sus sermones y escritos fueron una poderosa influencia en el desarrollo del movimiento por la libertad y la independencia.

El alcance de su sentimiento político se puede ver en su Discurso sobre la sumisión ilimitada (Texto completo), un sermón pronunciado en el centenario de la ejecución de  Carlos I (30 de enero de 1649/50). Mayhew, que se opuso vigorosamente a los recientes esfuerzos por presentar a Carlos como un monarca mártir, comenzó con observaciones sobre la antigüedad de las libertades inglesas. La  Constitución en inglés, afirmó, "es original y esencialmente libre". Fuentes romanas, como la confiable Tácito, dejaron en claro que "los antiguos británicos... estaban extremadamente celosos de sus libertades". Los monarcas de Inglaterra originalmente ocuparon su trono "únicamente por concesión del parlamento", por lo que los antiguos reyes ingleses gobernaron "por el consentimiento voluntario del pueblo". Después de cuarenta páginas de tal discurso histórico, Mayhew llegó a su punto principal: la justicia esencial de la ejecución de un rey inglés (regicidio) cuando infringió demasiado las libertades británicas.

El vigor del sermón de Mayhew estableció su reputación. Fue publicado no solo en Boston, sino también en Londres en 1752 y nuevamente en 1767. En Boston, John Adams recordó mucho después que el sermón de Mayhew, "fue leído por todos". Algunos dirían más tarde que este sermón fue la primera andanada de la Revolución Americana, que establece la justificación intelectual y bíblica de la rebelión contra la Corona.

En 1763 dirigió su atención a la Sociedad para la Propagación del Evangelio, una rama de la Iglesia de Inglaterra establecida "para enviar sacerdotes y maestros de escuela a América para ayudar a proporcionar el ministerio de la Iglesia a los colonos". Sus "Observaciones sobre la Carta y la Conducta de la Sociedad para la Propagación del Evangelio en el Extranjero" se publicaron en Boston y Londres y suscitaron una oposición considerable en Inglaterra y América; Thomas Secker, entonces arzobispo de Canterbury, escribió una "Respuesta" el año siguiente.

En 1765, con la nueva provocación de la Ley del Timbre, Mayhew pronunció otro conmovedor sermón sobre las virtudes de la libertad y la iniquidad de la tiranía. La esencia de la esclavitud, anunció, consiste en la sujeción a otros: "ya sean muchos, pocos o uno, no importa". El día después de su sermón, una turba de Boston atacó la casa de Thomas Hutchinso, y muchos pensaron que Mayhew era el responsable.

Mayhew fue Conferencias Dudleianas en Harvard en 1765. Murió en julio de 1766.

Un cuarto de siglo después de su muerte, se pronunciaron las siguientes líneas en el discurso de graduación de Harvard de 1792:

  Mientras Gran Bretaña reclama por leyes nuestro derecho a liderar,
   Y la fe estaba encadenada por el credo de un fanático.
   Entonces la libertad mental primero desplegó su poder
   y llamó a MAYHEW en ayuda de la religión.
   Por esta gran verdad, condujo con valentía la camioneta,
   Ese juicio privado era el derecho del hombre.

Isaiah 14 is the fourteenth chapter of the Book of Isaiah in the Hebrew Bible or the Old Testament of the Christian Bible. This book contains the prophecies attributed to the prophet Isaiah, and is one of the Books of the Prophets.

Text
The original text was written in Hebrew language. This chapter is divided into 32 verses.

Textual witnesses
Some early manuscripts containing the text of this chapter in Hebrew are of the Masoretic Text tradition, which includes the Codex Cairensis (895), the Petersburg Codex of the Prophets (916), Aleppo Codex (10th century), Codex Leningradensis (1008).

Fragments containing parts of this chapter were found among the Dead Sea Scrolls (3rd century BCE or later):
 1QIsaa: complete
 4QIsac (4Q57): extant verses 1-5, 13
 4QIsal (4Q65): extant verses 1‑12, 21‑24
 4QIsao (4Q68): extant verses 28‑32

There is also a translation into Koine Greek known as the Septuagint, made in the last few centuries BCE. Extant ancient manuscripts of the Septuagint version include Codex Vaticanus (B; B; 4th century), Codex Sinaiticus (S; BHK: S; 4th century), Codex Alexandrinus (A; A; 5th century) and Codex Marchalianus (Q; Q; 6th century).

Parashot
The parashah sections listed here are based on the Aleppo Codex. Isaiah 14 is a part of the Prophecies about the Nations (Isaiah 13–23). {P}: open parashah; {S}: closed parashah.
 [{S} 13:6-22] 14:1-2 {S} 14:3-27 {P} 14:28-32 {P}

The restoration of Jacob (14:1–3)

Verse 1
For the Lord will have mercy on Jacob, and will yet choose Israel, and set them in their own land: and the strangers shall be joined with them, and they shall cleave to the house of Jacob.
"For": from the Hebrew word , ki, at the start of the verse as 'asseverative' ("certainly"), emphasizing the Lord's desire to restore his people as one of the reasons for Babylon's demise (Isaiah 13:22b).

Fall of the King of Babylon (14:4–21)
The song in verses 4b–21 could be secondarily applied to Sargon II, who died in 705 BCE and his body was never recovered from the battlefield. Here, Sargon ("King of Assyria" in Isaiah 20:1) is called the "King of Babylon" because from 710–707 BCE he ruled in Babylon and even reckoned his regnal year on this basis (as seen in Cyprus Stela, II. 21–22).

Verse 12

"How you are fallen from heaven,
O Lucifer, son of the morning!
How you are cut down to the ground,
You who weakened the nations!"
 "Fallen from heaven": see ,  for the words of Jesus Christ regarding the fall of Satan.
 "Lucifer" or "Day-star" (Hebrew: הילל hēylēl, from הלל hâlal, "to shine"). The Septuagint renders it, Ἑωσφόρος Heōsphoros, and Jerome in the Vulgate, "Lucifer, the morning star"; in the Chaldee, "How art thou fallen from high, who wert splendid among the sons of men." The New Oxford Annotated Bible suggests the correlation with "a Canaanite myth of the gods Helel and Shahar (Morning Star and Dawn), who fall from heaven as a result of rebellion."

Verse 19
But you are cast out of your grave
Like an abominable branch,
Like the garment of those who are slain,
Thrust through with a sword,
Who go down to the stones of the pit,
Like a corpse trodden underfoot.
"Abominable branch": "despised branch" or "like a shoot that is abhorred", where "branch" or "shoot" is from Hebrew word , netser (cf. Isaiah 11:1), here may refer to 'a small shoot that is trimmed from a plant and tossed away'.
"Thrust": "pierced"

Destruction of Babylon, Assyria and Philistia (14:22–32)

Verse 29

Do not rejoice, all you of Philistia,
Because the rod that struck you is broken;
For out of the serpent's roots will come forth a viper,
And its offspring will be a fiery flying serpent.
"Philistia": from , , KJV renders it as "Palestina", not in the wider meaning as today, but specifically as 'the country of the Philistines'.

Peter Lewis Kingston Wentz III, född den 5 juni 1979, är en amerikansk musiker, känd som basist, bakgrundssångare och textförfattare i Chicago-bandet Fall Out Boy.

Biografi
Pete Wentz föddes i Wilmette, en förort till Chicago, Illinois. Han gick på New Trier Township High School och North Shore Country Day School, där han också spelade mycket fotboll. Efter examen, 1997, började han på DePaul University, där han studerade statskunskap. Han hoppade dock av för att satsa på musiken.

Han har skrivit en bok som sina mardrömmar som barn kallad The Boy With the Thorn In His Side, och håller nu på att skriva en bok tillsammans med The Academy Is...-sångaren William Beckett.

Han har ett eget klädmärke, Clandestine Industries och ett skivbolag, Decaydance Records, där han bland annat har signat Panic at the Disco. 2007 öppnade han baren Angels and Kings.

Wentz spelade sig själv i tv-showen One Tree Hill där han i tre avsnitt dejtade Peyton (Hilarie Burton). Han har en liten roll i Cobra Starships video "Snakes on A Plane (Bring It)", The Academy Is... video "We've Got a Big Mess on Our Hands" (samma scen från denna videon används i Fall Out Boys video "Thnks fr th Mmrs"), en liten roll i Gym Class Heroes video "Clothes Off!". Och han är även med i tv-serien Best Ink där han var programledare under hela säsong 2.

I februari 2005, i vad som framgick vara ett självmordsförsök, tog Wentz en överdos av Ativan, och resultatet blev en vecka på sjukhus. Självmordsförsöket skrevs det sedan en sång om, kallad "7 Minutes in Heaven (Atavan Halen)" som finns med på albumet From Under the Cork Tree.

Han var sedan i maj 2008 gift med sångerskan Ashlee Simpson-Wentz, och paret fick sonen Bronx den 20 november 2008.

Paret skiljde sig i februari 2011.

Han har ytterligare två barn, sonen Saint och dottern Marvel, med sin nuvarande sambo Meagan Camper.

Paron is an unincorporated community in Saline County, Arkansas, United States. Paron is located along Arkansas Highway 9,  northwest of Benton. Paron has a post office with ZIP code 72122.

In 2006 Jennifer Barnett-Reed and Max Brantley of the Arkansas Times stated that the only community institutions Paron had were area churches and the schools; the latter were in operation at the time, but have since closed, with students now assigned to schools in Bryant.

Demographics
 some residents of Paron moved there from urban areas in Central Arkansas while others were born in families that owned land in the Paron area for multiple generations. In 2006 Jennifer Barnett-Reed and Max Brantley of the Arkansas Times stated that Paron, which "doesn't seem" to have had an accurate population count from any organization or agency, "probably" had a population in the hundreds. The average age is 54. 97.65 percent of the Paron population was born in the United States.

Economy
Circa 2006 most residents work in Benton, Bryant, and Little Rock, while some have construction and farming jobs in Paron. Reed and Brantley stated "within probably"  to  there are no retail stores nor gas stations. 57.49% of Paron works white collar jobs. 6.12% of Paron is self employed, 73.39% works for private companies, 11.62% are governmental workers.

Education
Paron, a part of the Bryant School District, is served by Salem Elementary School, in Bryant, about  from Paron, and Bryant High School, in Bryant.  Paron area students are eligible to attend public schools in other school districts.

The community was initially in the Paron School District, which operated Paron Elementary School and Paron High School. On July 1, 2004 the Paron School District merged into the Bryant School District. Paron High School initially remained open before closing in 2006 due to Paron being considered a rural area. Students that attended the school were transferred to Bryant High School. In 2015, the Bryant district voted to close Paron Elementary School. At the time it had about 75 students. Paron students were reassigned to Salem Elementary School.

In 2006 Reed and Brantley stated that since most residents can be admitted to state-operated universities and colleges without needing to take remedial courses and perform at the state average on standardized tests, "[t]he prevailing attitude seems to be that Paron students are doing fine [academically]".

In 2016 there was a proposal to establish a charter school in Paron in the former Paron public school as a result of the closure of the public elementary, due to safety concerns related to the commutes to Paron or to the Perryville School District facilities. That year the Arkansas Department of Education panel overseeing such requests declined this proposal, mainly because of lack of expertise and support. But they were encouraged to polish up the application and apply again the next year. The community decided not to apply the immediate year after the rejection.

In 2021 another community-backed effort to establish a charter school occurred. In 2022 the community submitted plans for a K-12 charter school in Paron to the state authorities. As of now, the community is once again in the process of getting a school back in Paron. The community will be sending in their letter of intent in January, 2022. This time things are looking like they have a good shot of getting a school back.

Climate
The climate in this area is characterized by hot, humid summers and generally mild to cool winters.  According to the Köppen Climate Classification system, Paron has a humid subtropical climate, abbreviated "Cfa" on climate maps.

A hippói zsinat az i.sz. 393-ban tartott ókeresztény egyházi zsinat, amelynek az észak-afrikai Hippo Regius adott otthont.

A 393-as zsinat leginkább két eseményről ismert. Az első, hogy a püspökök tanácsa először sorolta fel és hagyta jóvá a keresztény bibliai kánont, amely meghatározta, hogy mely írásokból álljon össze a Biblia. Ez az összeállítás megfelel a modern katolikus kánonnak de eltér az ortodox kánontól.
A zsinaton jóváhagyott kánonlistán hat könyv szerepelt, amelyeket a katolikusok később deuterokanonikus könyveknek, a protestánsok pedig apokrif iratoknak minősítettek; de már tartalmazta – "Ezra két könyve" formájában – az ólatin formájú Ezra első és második könyvét, melyből csak az utóbbi található meg a katolikus kánonban.

A kanonizált könyvek listáját a III. karthágói zsinaton hagyták jóvá 397-ben, függővé téve a "tengeren túli egyház", vagyis a Római Szentszék ratifikációjától. Az ezt megelőző zsinatok és tanácsok hasonló, de kissé eltérő kánonokat hagytak jóvá.

A zsinat megerősítette a papi önmegtartóztatás követelményének apostoli eredetét, és megerősítette azt, mint követelményt az összes felszentelt számára. Emellett megkövetelte, hogy egy személy háztartásának minden tagjának kereszténynek kell lennie, mielőtt az illetőt felszentelhetik.
A zsinaton tisztázták a klerikális utódlásra vonatkozó szabályokat, valamint bizonyos liturgikus megfontolásokat is.

Az agarászat ősi vadászati mód. Az agarászat lényege, hogy a vadász a zsákmányt az agarakkal vagy az agarak segítségével ejti el. Az agárral vadászó vadász neve: agarász. Az agarászatnak számos formája ismert, sőt a solymászattal vegyesen egymást kiegészítve is űzték ezt a vadászati módot.

A magyar agarászat
Magyarországon is alkalmazott vadászati módszer volt az agarászat. Írásos emlékeink javarészt a 19–20. századból valók. Ezek alapján megállapíthatjuk, hogy egyik virágkorát az agarászat a kiegyezés utáni időben érte el, a dualizmus korában. A II. világháborút követően az agarászat gyakorlatilag megszűnt. Ezt leggyakrabban a mezőgazdaság belterjessé válásával indokolják. De az igazság közelebb áll ahhoz, hogy az új gazdasági-politikai berendezkedéssel egyidőben megszűnt az a réteg amely tovább művelhette volna ezt a – ahogyan művelői korábban is nevezték – sportot. Méltán nevezték ezt sportnak, hiszen nem is a nyúl elejtése volt a fő cél, hanem – ahogy akkor fogalmazták – a test és a lélek edzése, erősítése. Sajnos az agarászat megszűnésével kezdődött őshonos vadászkutyafajtánk, a magyar agár fajta hanyatlása is.

Jelentősége
Az agarászat fent említett virágkorában nem csak a vadászatról szólt. Ettől sokkal több volt: egyben volt lovassport, ahol alkalom nyílt lovas és ló tudásának, erejének megmérettetésére, de az agarászatok egyben társadalmi események is voltak, ahol a magyar nemesség (elsősorban a középnemesség vagy más szóval dzsentrik) megvitathatták mindennapi gondjaikat, politikai és gazdasági nézeteiket. Ne felejtsük el, hogy a dualizmus egy igen termékeny, de sok tekintetben változást és átalakulást hozó időszak volt a magyar történelemben.

Az agarászat
Jelenleg Európában például Spanyolországban működő vadászati mód, ahol spanyol agárral (Galgo Espanol) vadásznak. Magyarországon jelenleg nem tiltott, de nem is engedélyezett vadászati mód, kizárólag magyar agarak teljesítményvizsgálatára van lehetőség.2016 márc 1.-től ismét engedélyezett vadászati mód.

(2401) Aehlita ist ein Asteroid des mittleren Hauptgürtels, der von der sowjetischen Astronomin Tamara Smirnowa am 2. November 1975 am Krim-Observatorium in Nautschnyj (IAU-Code 095) entdeckt wurde. Sichtungen des Asteroiden hatte es vorher schon am 9. Februar 1954 unter der vorläufigen Bezeichnung 1954 CP am Goethe-Link-Observatorium in Indiana gegeben sowie am 18. und 20. November 1957 (1957 WC) an der Sternwarte am purpurnen Berg bei Nanjing.

Der italienische Astronom Vincenzo Zappalà hat unter Zuhilfenahme einer hierarchischen Clusteranalyse in einer Publikation von 1995 (et al.) eine Zugehörigkeit des Asteroiden zur Liberatrix-Familie hochgerechnet, einer nach (125) Liberatrix benannten Gruppe von Asteroiden. Nach neuerer Definition der AstDyS-2-Datenbank ist (2401) Aehlita Mitglied der Agnia-Familie, einer Gruppe von Asteroiden, die vor maximal 140 Millionen Jahren durch das Auseinanderbrechen eines großen Körpers entstanden ist und nach ihrem größten Mitglied (847) Agnia benannt wurde. Die zeitlosen (nichtoskulierenden) Bahnelemente von (2401) Aehlita sind fast identisch mit denjenigen von neun weiteren kleineren (wenn man von der Absoluten Helligkeit ausgeht) Asteroiden: (227454) 2005 WJ99, (319181) 2005 YH125, (320292) 2007 RO221, (368004) 2012 FB53, (417189) 2005 WV169, (445656) 2011 UD67, (490541) 2009 VN48, 2010 EY66 und 2010 TX223.

Nach der SMASS-Klassifikation (Small Main-Belt Asteroid Spectroscopic Survey) wurde bei einer spektroskopischen Untersuchung von Gianluca Masi, Sergio Foglia und Richard P. Binzel bei (2401) Aehlita von einer hellen Oberfläche ausgegangen, es könnte sich also, grob gesehen, um einen S-Asteroiden handeln. Die tatsächliche Albedo wurde mit 0,288 (±0,040) bestimmt.

Der mittlere Durchmesser von (2401) Aehlita wurde mit 8,621 km (±0,094) berechnet.

Der Asteroid wurde am 8. Februar 1982 nach Aehlita (Аэлита, auch Aëlita und Aelita) benannt, der Protagonistin des gleichnamigen Marsromanes des sowjetischen Schriftstellers Alexei Nikolajewitsch Tolstoi aus dem Jahre 1922. Nach Alexei Nikolajewitsch Tolstoi wurde 1994 der Asteroid (3771) Alexejtolstoj benannt.

Arnold Friedrich Mieg, ab 1792 von Mieg, ab 1812 Ritter von Mieg, (* 21. Januar 1778 in Heidelberg; † 7. Januar 1842 in Frankfurt am Main) war ein deutscher Politiker.

Leben
Arnold Friedrich von Mieg wurde als Sohn von Benedikt Friedrich Albert von Mieg (1755–1829), Administrationsrat und 1792 in den Reichsadel erhoben, und dessen Ehefrau Carolina, geb. Söldner, geboren. Seine beiden Schwestern waren:
 Antonie (1783–1856), verheiratet mit dem bayerischen Geheimrat und Regierungsdirektor Karl von Günther (1771–1855);
 Josefine (1793–1828), verheiratet mit dem späteren provisorischen bayerischen Innenminister von 1847 Johann Baptist von Zenetti.
1806 heiratete er in Wien Elise (1784–1845), Tochter des Joseph Anton Segalla von Kornfeld, Gutsbesitzer in Roveredo, und der Therese Nicolo della Casa Bianca. Gemeinsam hatten sie zwei Töchter, u. a. Caroline Therese Magdalene (1807–1888), verheiratet mit Friedrich August Stüler (1800–1865), Architekt.

Arnold Friedrich von Mieg studierte an der Universität Heidelberg Philosophie und Jura und begann nach dem Studium als Gehilfe des pfalz-zweibrückischen Komitialgesandten beim Rastatter Kongress, Aloys Graf von Rechberg. Die Regierungsübernahme des Herzogs von Pfalz-Zweibrücken Maximilian I. Joseph 1799 in München führte Arnold Friedrich von Mieg zunächst als Legationssekretär bei der bayerischen Gesandtschaft nach Wien. 1806 wechselte er als Gubernialrat in das neu errichtete Generalkommissariat des Innkreises, wo er bis zum Kanzleidirektor aufstieg. 1810 wechselte er als Kanzleidirektor nach Salzburg.

1816 wurde er Regierungsdirektor bei der königlichen Regierung Unterfrankens in Würzburg. 1823 kehrte er als Ministerialrat beim Innenministerium nach München zurück, und setzte sich dort weiterhin für die Belange von Würzburg ein und wurde dafür 1824 zum Ehrenbürger ernannt.

1826 übernahm er die Stelle als Regierungsrat und Regierungspräsident des Rezatkreises in Ansbach. Anfang 1832 wurde er als Nachfolger von Joseph Ludwig Graf von Armansperg zum Verweser des Finanzministeriums ernannt.

Im Februar 1833 reiste Arnold Friedrich von Mieg im Auftrag der Königreiche Bayern und Württemberg nach Berlin, um über den Zusammenschluss des süddeutschen und preußisch-hessischen Zollverein zu verhandeln. Unter anderem konnte durch seine Verhandlungsführung im März 1833 der schnelle und erfolgreiche Abschluss des Vertrages zum Deutschen Zollverein gefeiert werden. Da er bei einigen Zusagen seine Kompetenz überschritt, kam es zu Spannungen mit König Ludwig I. von Bayern. Arnold Friedrich von Mieg trat daraufhin im April 1833 vom Ministeramt zurück und ließ sich als bayerischer Gesandter an den Bundestag nach Frankfurt am Main versetzten. Bis zu seinem Tode bekleidete er diese Position, wobei weitere diplomatische Missionen hinzukamen, so war er auch bevollmächtigter Gesandter bei der Deutschen Bundesversammlung. Im Januar 1834 wurde er als bayerischer Bevollmächtigter zu der Wiener Ministerialkonferenz geschickt, wo er erfolgreich Klemens Wenzel Lothar von Metternichs Plänen zur Einrichtung eines Bundesgerichtes sowie der Aufstellung des Grundsatzes, Bundesrecht gehe vor Landesrecht, entgegenarbeitete.

The Imaginatively Titled Punt & Dennis Show, known simply as Punt and Dennis throughout its second series, is a British stand-up and sketch show written by and starring comedians Steve Punt and Hugh Dennis. The first series of 6 episodes was broadcast between 7 July and 11 August 1994.

The second series, also of 6 episodes, was broadcast on Fridays at 20:30 (episodes 1 and 2) and 20:00 (episodes 3, 4 and 5) between 28 July and 1 September 1995, except for the last episode which was broadcast on Thursday 7 September at 22:45 (there was no episode shown on 11 August 1995).

Overview
The two had already appeared as a double act in The Mary Whitehouse Experience and Canned Carrott.

Impressionists Alistair McGowan and Ronni Ancona were among the guests on the show.

There were several character inventions in the sketches, such as "The Gullibles", who were always falling for scams, as well as a number of Punt and Dennis's characters from The Mary Whitehouse Experience, such as the milk-obsessed "Mr Strange". There were also spoofs from TV programmes such as Baywatch and The X-Files.

The second series also featured performances by tribute bands; these included Björn Again in episode 1; The Bootleg Beatles in episode 2; The Counterfeit Stones in episode 3; The LA Doors in episode 4; The Royal Family (a Queen tribute band) in episode 5; and T.Rextasy (a T. Rex tribute band) in episode 6.

Characters
The show featured a mix of stand-up, spoofs of known television series, but also a number of character based sketches. These characters and sketches included:

 Mr Strange a man obsessed with milk and disgusting things to do with it. He briefly informs the audience of his latest 'experiment' and usually signs off with his catchphrase "milky-milky". (played by Hugh Dennis)
 Norris Employed by the BBC as a weatherman as part of a home-office scheme to help rehabilitate habitual criminals, Norris' forecasts feature advice to take advantage of specific weather conditions to break into peoples homes and "get yourself something nice!". (Hugh Dennis, Series 2)
 Kurt Wenker a living stereotype of the buff, tanned, German guy in charge of handing out the windsurf boards in holiday destinations. Kurt constantly intimidates British male tourists and jokes about stealing their girlfriends. (Hugh Dennis)
 World of Wine and World of Whisky. A programme presented by a man called Tarquin (Punt) and alcoholic wine connoisseur Michael (Dennis). Tarquin attempts to maintain the pomp and circumstance of presenting a professional programme about wines and spirits while Michael, slurs his way through viewers Q&A sessions criticising their attempts to do anything with wine other than drink it.
 Update With Tony Shannon and Ian Pye News anchors Tony Shannon (Dennis) and Ian Pye (Punt), who constantly introduce each other and the news headlines without ever actually reading any news.
 The Rt. Hon. Hector Sleazely MP A member of parliament who is constantly in the middle of a scandal and attempts to explain himself in a statement to reporters. The statement is laced with word play, mostly homonyms, to the point where the long speech is generally meaningless. Sleazely always ends with his insistence that he will not be resigning before awkwardly resigning from making the statement. (Hugh Dennis)
Do you Fancy a Bit of a Brew? A lazy, dishonest tradesman (Dennis) who is always caught having a cup of tea, mainly because that is all he does. Any building work he does is usually shoddy and dangerous.
Any Way you Want It Two sketches (the first is in a fast food restaurant, the other in a garage) featuring the same two characters, one of whom (Gary - Dennis) is not very bright. These two characters first appeared in Canned Carrott.
The Jockeys Two jockeys sitting in a pub either discussing their races as racing commentators would (i.e. rather quickly), or referring to pint-sized personalities like Prince or Ronnie Corbett as 'big men' - referring to the fact that jockeys are typically very short people.
Martin An alcoholic, chain-smoking hit-man (Dennis) who been asked to do one last job supposedly to take out an assassin (McGowan), but has actually been duped by Dane (Punt) as he is incompetent and supposedly bound to get the job wrong.
Embarrassing Dad A father (Dennis) embarrasses his children by tactlessly telling one of his daughter's teachers that she fancies him, or ordering food in McDonald's and eating the packaging only to make matters worse by saying 'No-one's watching!'.

Louis d'Ailleboust de Coulonge et d'Argentenay, né vers 1612 à Ancy-le-Franc, et mort le  à Montréal, est un administrateur français.

Il fut gouverneur et lieutenant-général de la Nouvelle-France de 1648 à 1651 et gouverneur actif de 1657 à 1658.

Biographie

Enfance et famille
Louis d'Ailleboust de Coulonge et d'Argentenay est né à Ancy-le-Franc d'une famille noble, fils d'Antoine d'Ailleboust (mort vers 1620), avocat à Autun et conseiller ordinaire du prince de Condé et de l'Auxois, et de sa seconde épouse Suzanne Hotman. Il a un demi-frère : Nicolas d'Ailleboust, né du premier mariage de son père avec Marie Genevois. Son grand-père était François Hotman, célèbre jurisconsulte, écrivain et calviniste. Il est l'arrière-petit-fils de Pierre d'Ailleboust, médecin de François , et le petit-neveu de Jean d'Ailleboust (le jeune), médecin de  Henri IV, et de Charles  d'Ailleboust, évêque d'Autun.

En 1638, nous savons qu'il habite rue de Bièvre à Paris, paroisse de Saint-Étienne-du-Mont. Le , il y épouse Barbe de Boulogne par contrat de mariage signé devant maître Philippe Périer, notaire à Paris et fait à l'hôtel des Deux Anges, place Maubert, où la mère de la mariée, née Eustache Quéan ou Quéau, veuve de Florentin de Boullongne, de Ravières en  Champagne demeure. Le jeune couple emménage rue des Morfondus.

Arrivée en Nouvelle-France

Éprouvant le désir de se rendre en Nouvelle-France, il prend des informations, dans son entourage familial. Une compagnie d'ecclésiastiques et de gentilshommes, ayant fait l'acquisition de l'île de Montréal, en confie le recrutement de volontaires à un jeune gentilhomme : Paul de Chomedey de Maisonneuve. Malgré l'état de santé fragile de son épouse, ils décident de partir ensemble. La sœur aîné de Barbe, Philippine Gertrude de Boullongne, décide de les accompagner. Françoise d'Aillebouts, grand-tante de Louis avait épousé Jean Lallemant, calviniste et médecin à Autun. Nous ignorons si ce couple eut des enfants, mais le trio rencontra le jésuite Charles Lalemant, procureur de la mission canadienne, et qui avait déjà été missionnaire là-bas en 1625. C'est ainsi qu'ils entrèrent dans la Société Notre-Dame de Montréal. Le départ ayant été fixé, ils embarquent au printemps de l'année 1643 sur un des trois vaisseaux en partance depuis le port de La Rochelle. Deux des navires n'arrivèrent que le  suivant, tant la traversée fut difficile. Il arrive à Ville-Marie (maintenant Montréal) en septembre 1643. Au mois de juillet suivant, la petite troupe de Paul Chomedey de Maisonneuve, composée d'une cinquantaine de personnes, reçoit la visite du gouverneur Charles Jacques Huault de Montmagny, avec les promesses du roi de France d'envoyer de nouveaux colons avec un navire de 350 tonneaux la Notre-Dame. Louis qui avait reçu une formation d'ingénieur militaire, mit tout son talent à la fortification de la ville, régulièrement attaquée par les Iroquois qui avaient l'année précédente tué quatre personnes et fait de nombreux blessés. Il conseilla de semer du blé, venant de France, au lieu et place du blé d'inde (maïs).

Premier mandat de gouverneur

Paul de Chomedey de Maisonneuve, rentra en 1645, en France et chargea Louis d'Ailleboust, de le remplacer. Ce qu'il fit de 1645 à l'été 1647. À son retour, il apprit à Louis que Huault de Montmagny devait être remplacé à la tête du gouvernement de la Nouvelle-France, après onze années de bons services et que le conseil du roi avait envisagé de lui confier ce poste mais qu'il avait décliné l'offre au profit de Louis d'Ailleboust. Il dut donc à la demande de la Compagnie des Cent-Associés et de la Société de Notre-Dame, se rendre en France prendre possession de ses lettres de créance. Il fut nommé par Mazarin, le , pour une durée de trois années. Il présida donc, au Conseil de cinq membres chargé de prendre les décisions, sur les lois locales, de régler le commerce, de rendre la justice, décider des règlements du pays, et de la guerre. Revenu de France accompagné par  son neveu, l'officier Charles-Joseph d'Ailleboust des Musseaux (1621-1700), seigneur d'Argenteuil. Il lui confia le commandement du camp volant, chargé de protéger les environs de la ville et composé de quarante soldats.

Il s'installa au château Saint-Louis de Québec à son retour. L'effectif du camp volant fut porté à soixante dix hommes par suite des attaques incessantes des Iroquois, qui massacrèrent les Hurons, alliés des colons français, et qui furent pratiquement exterminés entre 1648 et 1649. Fin 1650, il fait construire de nouvelles défenses au fort des Trois-Rivières et donna des instructions très précises sur l'organisation de la défense à Pierre Boucher, commandant du fort.

Il reprit les négociations commencées par son prédécesseur pour essayer de conclure un traité d'alliance avec les colonies de la Nouvelle-Angleterre et ne voulut pas signer séparément un traité d'union commerciale. Les négociations n'aboutirent pas. Il donna des ordres pour faire stopper le trafic d'eau-de-vie avec les Amérindiens. Le , son poste est repris par Jean de Lauzon.

Entre ses deux mandats

Louis et son épouse se retirent dans leur propriété près de Québec, en un lieu baptisé Coulonge, terre dont il avait fait l'acquisition  le  de Nicolas Gaudry, dit Bourbonnière. Il embellit son domaine, et son successeur à la tête de la Nouvelle-France lui concéda au nom de la Cie des Cent-Associés le fief d'Argentenay et l'arrière-fief de Saint-Vilmé. Sa demi-sœur utérine, Dorothée de Manthet, avait épousé son demi-frère paternel, son aîné Nicolas d'Ailleboust. Le couple eut deux enfants Charles-Joseph d'Ailleboust et Suzanne d'Ailleboust. Ces deux noms, d'Argentenay et l'autre de Saint-Vilmé sont tous deux des villages de l'Yonne.

Il devint syndic et marguillier de la paroisse de Québec. Il continua à participer de façon active à la vie du nouveau monde en créant avec Jean Bourdon et Jean-Paul Godefroy un port de pêche à Percé et y fit envoyer un bateau pour effectuer le transport à Saint-Christophe dans les Antilles. Il deviendra directeur général des pelleteries de Nouvelle-France et saura ménager les intérêts divergents de la Grande Compagnie et de la Compagnie des Habitants, dont la création remonte à 1645.

En 1655, il accompagne avec son neveu Charles-Joseph, Mr de Maisonneuve qui est de retour en France, pour traiter de la pérennité de l'œuvre entreprise par les sociétés dans la Nouvelle-France et particulièrement à Ville-Marie. Il resta deux années en France et avant de repartir, il reçut de la Compagnie des Cent-Associés, en remerciements de son travail, les lettres patentes, érigeant sa propriété de Coulange en fief et châtellenie, en 1657.

Le , il embarque à Saint-Nazaire, avec Mr de Maisonneuve, trois sulpiciens, que dirige l'abbé de Queylus, premier supérieur de Saint-Sulpice à Montréal. Ils débarquèrent à l'île d'Orléans le  et dans le courant du mois d'août les religieux s'installèrent à Ville-Marie.

Deuxième mandat de gouverneur

Charles de Lauzon de Charny, gouverneur intérimaire rappela auprès de lui Louis d'Ailleboust qui quitta Montréal et rentra à Québec le . C'est avec surprise qu'il se vit nommer par celui-ci gouverneur par intérim en attendant la venue de Pierre de Voyer d'Argenson, vicomte de Mouzay, nouveau gouverneur. À la suite du décès de son épouse Charles de Lauzon souhaitait entrer dans les ordres et abandonner sa charge. Louis reprit les pourparlers et autres négociations entre tous les partis en conflits d'intérêts. La fourberie régnait en maîtresse absolue et pendant que l'on préparait la paix d'un côté les massacres allaient bon train de l'autre.

Le , il posa en compagnie de l'abbé Vignal, la première pierre de l'église du Petit-Cap (Sainte-Anne de Beaupré). Les Iroquois continuaient à massacrer les Hurons, les Algonquins et les colons. C'est sous son impulsion que fut réalisée l'installation des Hurons et des Algonquins dans ce qui fut appelé le fortin des Hurons, à proximité du château Saint-Louis.

Retour à Montréal

N'ayant pu s'accorder avec le nouveau gouverneur, il quitta et regagna Ville-Marie en compagnie de son épouse, de l'abbé de Queylus et de plusieurs dizaines de colons. À la demande de  de Maisonneuve, il fortifia le coteau Saint-Louis et lança les bases de la citadelle de Montréal. Il retourna à Québec pour y accueillir le premier évêque de la Nouvelle-France, monseigneur François de Laval, arrivé le . C'est à la demande de ce dernier et du gouverneur qu'il se lança à nouveau dans des négociations en vue de régler un différend entre ces deux hommes sur des questions de préséances dans l'ordre des places à l'église. Louis d'Ailleboust, fin diplomate, donna satisfaction aux deux parties dans sa médiation.

Il est mort à Montréal le , ne laissant aucun descendant. Il fut inhumé le  à Ville-Marie dans le cimetière de l'hôpital qui se trouvait à l'emplacement de l'actuelle place d'Armes.

Les  són un arxipèlag de les Illes Nansei que a la vegada forma part de l'arxipèlag Satsunan. Estan situades entre l'extrem sud de Kyūshū i Yakushima, i pertanyen administrativament a la prefectura de Kagoshima del Japó.

Geografia
Les Illes Ōsumi són d'origen volcànic i tenen una àrea d'aproximadament 1.030 quilòmetres quadrats. El punt més alt és el Miyanouradake, amb 1.935 metres, a l'illa de Yakushima. El clima és subtropical humit, amb estius molt càlids i hivers suaus. La precipitació és elevada tot l'any, especialment els mesos de maig, juny i setembre.

Història
Les Ōsumi han estat habitades des del període Jōmon. Les necròpolis de Tanegashima indiquen que hi havia una cultura desenvolupada al període Yayoi, cap al final del segle IV: s'hi ha trobat magatama, un penjoll gravat i emblemes amb el que sembla escriptura.

Tanegashima i Yakushima s'esmenten per escrit per primera vegada en documents de la dinastia Sui xinesa del segle VI. Les Ōsumi formaven part de l'antiga província de Tane durant el període Asuka. El 1543 hi va arribar un vaixell xinès amb l'explorador portuguès Fernão Mendes Pinto, qui es creu que va introduir les armes de foc al Japó. En el període Edo les illes eren controlades pel clan Shimazu i es consideraven part de la província d'Ōsumi. Després de la Restauració Meiji, les illes van passar a ser part de la prefectura de Kagoshima. El 1945, durant la Segona Guerra Mundial, els EUA van ocupar les illes, que van ser retornades al Japó el 1953.

El 1969 s'hi va inaugurar el Centre Espacial de Tanegashima i un cosmòdrom propietat de l'Agència Espacial Japonesa. També als anys seixanta es van construir dos aeroports: el de Tanegashima i el de Yakushima.

Illes
Les dues illes principals de l'arxipèlag són Yakushima i Tanegashima, i la resta són illes menors o illots.
