title: Brad Byers

text:
Brad Byers (born October 8, 1959) is an American entertainer known for his extreme performances, including sword swallowing, lying on beds of nails and inserting various tools into his nasal cavity. For the latter he is also referred to as a "Human toolbox". He holds several World Records. His brother Rod assists him in some performances.

Biography
Brad Byers was born and raised in Moscow, Idaho. According to the biography given on his official site, he joined a traveling circus to become a juggler shortly after graduating from high school. Two years later he left the circus to focus on TV performances. He began swallowing swords at the age of 21. Throughout his career he performed in more than 20 countries. He is listed in the 1999, 2000 and 2003 editions of the Guinness Book of Records. He also took part in fourth and eighth seasons of NBC's America's Got Talent TV show (2009, 2013).

Performances

Sword swallowing
He earned a Guinness World Record for "The Most Swords Swallowed and Twisted at One Time" by swallowing twelve 27-inch swords one at a time until all 12 were in his esophagus and then twisting all 12 swords 180 degrees in his throat before withdrawing them and taking a bow. He is also among the few people in the world able to swallow a curved sword.

"Human toolbox"
"Human toolbox" is a moniker given to him by the Guinness World Records for his activities involving inserting various tools in his nasal cavity. He hammers in a nail or an awl and hangs a weight on it. Seen through the X-ray, the nail stops in several millimeters from his brain. He puts in a fishing hook into his nasal cavity so that it shows up out of his mouth. He also puts in a drill when it is being turned on. As it reaches maximum safe depth, he turns the drill off and on again when getting it out.

Other
He has also laid on a bed of nails while his brother ran over him driving a quad bike.

title: Anna Maria Clodt

text:
Anna Maria Clodt (died 1708), was a Swedish courtier. She served as a Danish agent at the Swedish Royal Court and was widely reputed and consulted by supplicants for her contacts and acquired a great deal of influence.

She was the daughter of Baron Gustaf Adolph Clodt and Brita Stuart and married Baron Åke Rålamb in 1689. She served as lady-in-waiting to Queen Hedvig Eleonora in 1668–1680, Queen Ulrika Eleonora in 1680–1693 and to Princess Ulrika Eleonora of Sweden in 1693–1708. She became a personal friend of the queen and are counted as belonging to the circle of intimate friends to the queen along with the royal chaplain confessor Johan Carlberg, Maria Elisabeth Stenbock and Sophia Amalia Marschalk.

She used her position as a courtier by creating a net of influential contacts, which she could use to forward requests and make recommendations from supplicants to power holders at court in exchange for money. This was a common way for a female courtier to earn money, but Clodt was very successful in her line of business, especially since she was somewhat of a favorite of Queen Ulrika Eleonora. Already in 1673, she stated in a letter that she was consulted so often by clients that she had grown weary of it. She also accepted foreign clients, which in fact made her a spy: she acted as an informer of Bolle Luxdorph (Danish envoy to Sweden in 1691–1698).

Composition

The composition was commissioned by the Gulbenkian Foundation and took Penderecki from 1970 to 1973 to finish it. It was premiered in Lisbon on June 5, 1973. Werner Andreas Albert conducted the Gulbenkian Orchestra and Les Percussions de Strasbourg, together with the NCRV Vocal Ensemble, which considered the composition too difficult to be performed. It is dedicated to Emil Breisach and was published by the Polish Music Publishing House and Schott Music.

Text

Following is the complete text used in the composition:

Reception
The composition received mixed opinions by critics. Opinions from Polish critics ranged from "one of the best of Penderecki's works", by Malinowski and Michałowski, and "colorful, subtle, elegant, and expressively discreet", by Zielinski, to remarks by Kaczynzki, who deplored the low dynamism of the composition and stated that the composition "deserved a warmer welcome, despite the incoherence of its texts". Polish critic Marian Fuks described the musical style of the work as "lukewarm".

title: Turks & Caicos (film)

text:
Turks & Caicos is a 2014 political thriller television film, written and directed for the BBC by the playwright David Hare. It follows Page Eight, which aired on BBC Two in August 2011 and is followed by Salting the Battlefield.

Plot
Following the events of Page Eight, ex-MI5 officer Johnny Worricker (Bill Nighy) is in hiding on the Turks and Caicos Islands. A seemingly chance encounter with Curtis Pelissier (Christopher Walken) leads Johnny to a dinner with several shady American businessmen who comprise a company called Gladstone. The following morning, one of the businessmen is found dead on the beach in suspicious circumstances; Melanie Fall (Winona Ryder), a Gladstone liaison, seems to know more than she lets on. When Pelissier reveals himself to be a CIA covert operative who knows Johnny's true identity, Johnny desperately cuts a deal: he will help Pelissier with the investigation of Gladstone in exchange for his silence about his location.

The remaining businessmen claim to be on the islands for an international financial colloquium. Johnny learns they have a link to London private equity mogul Stirling Rogers (Rupert Graves), who is also director of a charitable foundation called The Bridge. Johnny links The Bridge to his old nemesis, Prime Minister Alec Beasley (Ralph Fiennes). Johnny's old girlfriend, former MI5 analyst Margot Tyrell (Helena Bonham-Carter), is now a financial expert in London who is working with Rogers. He calls on old acquaintance Rollo Maverley (Ewen Bremner) to contact Margot and extract information regarding The Bridge.

Before long, Johnny learns the extent of Gladstone's activities: they are "quartermasters" who have been overcharging the U.S. government for the construction of black site torture camps. When Margot and Rogers arrive on the island, Johnny quickly makes his presence known and, along with Pelissier, sets up a high-stakes meeting with the concerned parties. Amid tense negotiations, Johnny — with the help of Margot's information — secures a deal between the CIA and Gladstone, and reveals a link between the company's excess funds and Beasley's ambitions. Johnny is double-crossed by Pelissier and is forced to flee the islands. He and Margot reconcile, and — with the help of local policeman Carroll — evade the CIA long enough to escape via boat. The two now go on the run, knowing their lives will never be the same again.

title: Beata Sparre

text:
Beata Sparre (1662–1724) was a Swedish courtier. She used the net of contacts her office gave her to benefit the interests of both her family, herself personally as well as individual supplicants and foreign powers in exchange for money. She is known for her successful use of her service as lady-in-waiting for lucrative purposes, and considered a notable example of a female courtier who used her office and the net of contact it gave her as a way of creating influence and personal wealth.

Biography
Beata Sparre was the daughter of Baron Axel Carlsson Sparre and Beata Stenbock. She served as a lady-in-waiting to Queen Hedvig Eleonora in 1680–1715 and to Princess Ulrika Eleonora of Sweden in 1715–1720.

She used her position as a courtier by creating a net of influential contacts, which she could use to accept and put forward requests from supplicants in exchange for money. This was a common way for a female courtier to earn money, but like her contemporary Anna Maria Clodt, Sparre was very successful in her line of business. Already during the 1680s, she had created a power base through which she could exact favors from the monarch. The French embassy pointed her out as one of the power holders in the Swedish court necessary to cultivate. She is known to have received gifts from France and may have acted as a French agent, which would make her a spy: it was noted that during the fire of the royal palace in 1697, she saved a portrait of Louis XIV of France which she had been given as a personal gift from France. Her petitions to Charles XII of Sweden went through the channel of the royal princesses and were normally successful. In 1709, she was a part of the group consisting of herself, Arvid Horn, the queen dowager's priest Molin, Christina Piper, and Märta Berendes who evicted Anna Catharina von Bärfelt from court by forming an alliance with Carl Gyllenstierna.

In 1703, she had Princess Ulrika Eleonora acquire a mansion for her by Charles XII. When she finally lost favor at court, she retired to this manor.

title: Pandwala Kalan

text:
Pandwala Kalan, officially the Pindwala Kalan (Pindwala Kalan) is a village in South West Delhi. It is the one of the largest villages by area, the tenth most popular village (with over 3,779 people) in the Najafgarh Tehsil of South-West Delhi. It is bounded by the Daulatpur, Hasan Pur villages on the south, the Ujawa on the southwest, and the Pandwala Khurd on the southeast. It shares land borders with Shri Hans Nagar and Khera Dabar to the west; Paprawat to the northeast; and Pandwala Khurd to the east.

Etymology
The name Pandwala Kalan is derived from Paṇḍ (पण्ड्), which means "to collect, heap, pile up", and this root is used in the sense of knowledge.[5] The term is found in Vedic and post-Vedic texts, but without any sociological context. In the colonial era literature, the term generally refers to Brahmins specialized in Hindu law.[6] Aala (आला), which means the supreme leader of the organization.

The latter term stems from the Kalan (Hindustani: कलाँ, Punjabi: ਕਲਾਂ) are administrative designations used in India and Pakistan to indicate the smaller (Khurd) and larger (Kalan) segments of a town, village or settlement.

The geographical term Pandwala Kalan, which is recognized by the Constitution of India as an official name for the village is used by many in its variations. Scholars believe it to be named after the Vedic tribe in the second millennium B.C.E. It is also traditionally associated with the Droņa (Sanskrit: द्रोण, Droņa) or Droņacharya or Guru Droņa, the royal preceptor to the Kauravas and Pandavas and incarnation of Brahma; an avatar of Brihaspati. He was the son of rishi Bharadwaja and a descendant of the sage Angirasa. He was a master of advanced military arts, including the divine weapons or Astras.

History

Pandwala has an ancient history since Mahabharata era when Drona decides to continue Parashurama's legacy by starting his own school. He uproots his family and begins wandering Northern India. While at Hastinapur, he comes across the Kuru princes at play, and is able to use his abilities to help the princes solve some of their problems. Amazed, the princes go to their patriarch Bhisma with news of this magician.
Bhishma instantly realized that this was Drona, and asked him to become the Guru of the Kuru princes, training them in advanced military arts.[6] It is believed that the city of Gurgaon (literally - "Village of the Guru") was founded as "Guru Gram" by Dronacharya on land given to him by Dhritarashtra, the king of Hastinapura in recognition of his teachings of martial arts to the princes, and the 'Dronacharya Tank', still exists within the Gurgaon city, along with a village called Gurgaon.[14] Pandwala is one of the places in Gurgaon where Dharma was taught to the Kauravas and Pandavas.The village is dominated by the people of Yadav community.

The village is about 15 km away from Indira Gandhi International Airport, and 2 km away from Chaudhary Brahm Prakash Ayurved Charak Sansthan, which is Asia's largest Ayurvedic hospital.
It is declared as R-Zone officially by Delhi government.
It has a green environment with a few temples with great history. The main and famous temple of the village is Ramtal mandir and it is the only village in Najafgarh district in which the tubewell water can be used for drinking purpose while in all other villages of Najafgarh groundwater is not suitable for drinking.

In coming years we may see a different village which would be occupied by the higher buildings.

 The village has its own post office, Meetha kuan is oldest well in this village. There are two temples in the village: Hanuman temple and Shiva temple. Hanuman temple is the oldest one.

Pandwala Kalan has its own primary school, a dispensary with good facilities, and Sr. Sec. School Chatarpati Shivaji.

Sushil International School managed by wrestler Sushil Kumar foundation is situated next to Shri Hans Nagar Colony on main Najafgarh–Darulla road on land of Pandwala Kalan.
Mela is organised in the Ramtal mandir every year on the last two days of navratris and a bhandara (feast) on 30th January of every year.
There are two gotras of Yadav's in this village. They are 'Aafariyas' and 'Gothwals'. There are Brahmins in the village as well. There are also two gotras of Brahmins: Vats and Bhardwaj.

Pandwala kalan shares borders with Paprawat ; Hasanpur ; Pandwala khurd ; Kharkhari Nahar and Kharkhari Jamat

Pandwala Kalan is also a part of Daulatpur Khap Panchayat( A Group of 9 Nearby Villages) and Surhera Khap panchayat (A group of 17 nearby Villages)

It is almost 1.5 kilometers away from Jhatikra road which connects this village to Najafgarh, a semi-urban developing city. The fields of this area are covered by greenery and a very hygienic natural atmosphere. Recently a high voltage electricity line is constructed over this village passing through the fields and connecting a major power station of this area placed at village ghummanhera. One more main road connects pandwala kalan to najafgarh that is galibpur road passing through the khaira village. The village has two government borewells which provide drinking water to all village. Other than these two borewells a new underground water supply has been started from village Daulatpur to Pandwala Kalan which sends water almost all the day.

title: Lodewijk van der Helst

text:
Lodewijk van der Helst (1642 – ?), was a Dutch Golden Age painter.

Biography
He was born in Amsterdam as the son and pupil of Bartholomeus van der Helst and grew up at Nieuwmarkt. Early 1671 he and his sister Susanne assisted their mother when they visited their father's studio, located near Walloon church (behind "Vleeshal") where his belongings were registered. His father owned many painting by Willem van de Velde the younger, the schilder-boeck by Karel van Mander, Metamorphoses by Ovid, Serlio, Scamozzi, Vitruvius and Palladio; portraits of Dutch admirals (Egbert Bartholomeusz Kortenaer, etc.)

The artist married in 1677, living on Herengracht. He disagreed and quarrelled with his sister about the heritage after their mother died. In 1680 a son Lodewijk was baptized. He appears to have left the city by 1684 after his wife died who left two children behind. His place and date of death is unknown. Lodewijks portrait of admiral Augustus Stellingwerf was engraved by Abraham Blooteling.

title: Noorderkempen railway station

text:
Noorderkempen is a railway station near the town of Brecht, Antwerp province, Belgium. The station opened on 15 June 2009 on the HSL 4 high speed line between the Netherlands and Belgium. The train services are operated by National Railway Company of Belgium (NMBS) and Nederlandse Spoorwegen (NS).

The station makes the Northern Kempen region connected to the rail network via the HSL 4 route and is the only true high-speed station in Belgium. However, it is not served by any true high-speed train, functioning rather as a park and ride for Antwerp and to a lesser extent Breda. The Thalys services (300 km/h) skip the station as the IC services (160 km/h - 200 km/h) serve the station.

History
The station was due to open in September 2007 but this and several other deadlines were not met. The main reason given for this was the ETCS signalling not being approved for use. The station was opened in 2009 and is served by shuttle services between the station and Antwerp.

International services to the Netherlands have started calling at this station in April 2018. Services are timetabled to depart at the same time in each direction (1 minute past the hour), to facilitate bus connections.

Train services
The following services currently the serve the station:

The last radio communication with the aircraft crew was at 13:13, when the crew reported their approximate position to Bhairahawa Tower, in Khidim. The aircraft eventually crashed in the jungle of Masine Lek, which is located in Dhikura.

Although the crash itself was not witnessed, some residents saw remains of the crashed aircraft. At first, no one was able to get to the crash site due to poor visibility. When the rescue and recovery teams eventually reached the crash site, they found the bodies of all eighteen on board spread over the hill.

According to Nepal's Army, the crash site is located at an altitude of . Parts of the wreckage were found as far away as  from the actual crash site.

Aircraft
The aircraft, a DHC-6 Twin Otter (Registration: 9N-ABB), which was delivered to Nepal Airlines in 1971, was involved in two incidents before: On 10 June 1973 on a flight from Biratnagar to Kathmandu, the aircraft was taken over by three hijackers of Nepali Congress party who demanded money and escaped after landing in Bihar, India. None of the three crew and 18 passengers were injured.
On 5 July 1992, the aircraft lost directional control on takeoff from Jumla on a flight to Surkhet. The aircraft ran off the runway and struck the airport perimeter fence. None of the three crew were injured and there were no passengers on board.

Passengers and crew
According to Civil Aviation Authority of Nepal official Ram Hari Sharma, everybody on board, except for one Danish passenger, were Nepalese, including a child.

Investigation
The Nepalese Government formed a four-man probe team to investigate the crash. The aircraft's flight recorder was taken from the site. The investigation team was expected to report its findings within two months of the crash.

The final report of the investigation was released on 25 August 2014. It found the accident was caused by a lack of crew coordination; a lack of situational awareness on the part of the crew; and the poor weather.

title: John Vesey (archbishop of Tuam)

text:
John Vesey (10 March 1638 – 28 March 1716) was a Church of Ireland clergyman.

Biography
He was born in Coleraine, son of Thomas Vesey, the local rector. His grandfather William Vesey had emigrated from Cumbria in the previous century. The family were Presbyterians who later conformed to the Established Church. He was educated at Westminster School and Trinity College, Dublin. He is said to have holy orders at an unusually young age. He was Archdeacon of Armagh, then Dean of Cork. He was made Bishop of Limerick, Ardfert and Aghadoe in 1672. In 1678 he became Archbishop of Tuam.

During the religious troubles in the reign of King James II of England, he and his diocese suffered greatly: his cattle were driven off and attempts were made to burn his cathedral. Finally, fearing that their lives were in danger, he and his wife and twelve children fled to London in late 1688, where he obtained a poorly paid lectureship. He was proscribed by the Patriot Parliament in 1689. After James's downfall, he returned to Ireland and preached a sermon of thanksgiving before the Parliament of Ireland. In 1712 and 1714 he served as one of the Lords Justices of Ireland. He died at Hollymount, County Mayo, in the large and comfortable house that he had built after the Episcopal palace at Tuam was burnt during his exile in England.

Family

title: Gideon Rises

text:
"Gideon Rises" is the twentieth aired episode of the animated television series Gravity Falls and the final episode of the series' first season. Premiering on August 2, 2013, on the Disney Channel, it was directed by John Aoshima and Joe Pitt, and written by Alex Hirsch, Matt Chapman, and Michael Rianda.

The series follows twins Dipper (voiced by Jason Ritter) and Mabel (voiced by Kristen Schaal) as they spend their summer vacation at their great uncle's tourist trap, where they are introduced to the paranormal side of the town of Gravity Falls. The episode is the second part of the two-part finale, following "Dreamscaperers", and sees Dipper and Mabel, and their great uncle Stan (voiced by Alex Hirsch), and friend Soos (voiced by Alex Hirsch) as they try to get back their stolen house from their nemesis Gideon Gleeful (voiced by Thurop Van Orman).

The episode had a viewership of 3.2 million. "Gideon Rises" was released for digital distribution as part of the series Volume 2.

Plot summary
Gideon Gleeful has taken control of the Mystery Shack, forcing the Pines family to move in with Soos at his grandmother's house. At a press conference, Gideon announces his intentions to turn the Mystery Shack into his own personal theme park, Gideonland, which the Pines family see on television. After failing to convince the town of Gideon's true nature, Mabel worries about where are they going to stay if they don't get the Mystery Shack back. Meanwhile, at the Mystery Shack, Gideon reveals to his father the true nature of his book; the story reads that it was written a long time ago by a brilliant unknown author who learned the secrets of Gravity Falls, secrets too powerful for one man, and hid the journals where no one could find them, knowing that when the journals are brought together, it would lead to a gateway of "unimaginable power". However, he is unaware that there are three journals and not two. Gideon says that codes and maps from the journal have led him to believe that the other book is hidden somewhere on the Mystery Shack's property.

Meanwhile, Dipper and Mabel are told that they are heading on the next bus out of Gravity Falls. With advice from their own journal, Journal 3, they soon come up with a plan: assembling the gnomes that had tried to kidnap Mabel at the beginning of the summer to try to take back the shack, but the gnomes are stopped by Gideon's pig whistle. As the gnomes grab a hold of both Dipper and Mabel, Dipper drops the third journal, and Gideon takes it from him. Dipper and Mabel then leave the town on the bus. Back at the Mystery Shack, Gideon is overjoyed to have the journal he stole from Dipper, until discovering it is the journal number 3 to his dismay. Believing that Dipper is trying to get the first out of town, Gideon takes a giant robot look-alike and goes after their bus.

Upon watching the Gideon-bot, Dipper and Mabel tell the bus driver, Soos, to run. Gideon chases and corners the bus at the edge of a cliff. Dipper and Mabel escape the bus, but Gideon corners them. As Dipper denies having the first journal, Gideon grabs Mabel and throws Dipper aside, planning to rule Gravity Falls with Mabel as his queen. Dipper jumps off the cliff into the Gideon-bot, where he and Gideon start to fight, with Dipper beating Gideon. However, the bot loses balance and falls off the bridge, but Mabel and Dipper are saved by Mabel's grappling hook. A large crowd surrounds the robot, to which Gideon lies that Dipper and Mabel tried to kill him. As the police get ready to arrest Dipper and Mabel, Stan shows up and reveals that Gideon is a fraud; he uses hidden video cameras inside the pins he gives out to spy on the local citizens. The police arrest Gideon after the townspeople turn against him, and Stan takes the deed and Journal 2 from him. The Pines return to the Mystery Shack and start settling their things back in their room, when Stan goes to check on them. Dipper and Mabel tell Stan that they were talking, and they wanted to show Stan the journal, exclaiming that they finally trust him. Stan laughs, crediting everything the twins told him to be a result of reading the book, and takes it to Dipper's disappointment, but Mabel cheers him up and the twins have a water fight with Soos.

Later that night, Stan takes Journal 3 and later opens a hidden passage door behind the Mystery Shack vending machine. He walks into a hidden laboratory and goes down an elevator. Revealing that he was the one with ownership of Journal 1, he places the three books together with each opened at a specific page revealing the blueprint for a machine. He uses codes from the pages to activate the machine. As the episode closes, he merely says "Here we go!".

Reception

"Gideon Rises" was released on August 2, 2013, as the last episode of the Gravity Falls first season and received a viewership of 3.2 million in the United States. The episode was nominated for a Golden Reel Award under the category Best Sound Editing - Sound Effects, Foley, Dialogue and ADR Animation in Television. The A.V. Club gave the episode a grade of "A", concluding "No single half-hour could wrap up all the questions Gravity Falls has raised over this season, but this episode shows an impressive knack for knowing which questions need answering and which can be safely ignored. And the biggest question it answers isn’t even really on the radar until the final minutes of the episode, as Stan finally reveals just how much he's been fooling everyone all this time. Alex Hirsch nails Stan's reaction to being presented with Dipper's journal, as he can’t quite mask his initial, genuine excitement before returning to his oblivious disguise. It's still not at all clear where this is all headed towards, but the show appears on the verge of changing irrevocably."

title: Phlox buckleyi

text:
Phlox buckleyi, common name swordleaf phlox or shale-barren phlox, is a plant species native to Virginia and West Virginia. It grows in open woodlands, primarily on hillsides derived from shale. The first known specimen was first collected in 1838 but not described as a species until 1930.

Phlox buckleyi is a perennial herb spreading by means of stolons running on the surface of the ground. Rosettes of long, narrow, evergreen leaves form at the tips of the stolons, from the center of which arises a vertical stem up to 40 cm (16 inches) tall. Inflorescence is a cyme or a paniculate group of cymes. Flowers are bright purple with lighter purple nearer the center but very dark purple at the very center.

title: Rehwa Society

text:
Rehwa Society is a not-for-profit foundation, working with weavers in Maheshwar, Madhya Pradesh. Established in 1978, by Richard and Sally Holkar as a weaver's society. It is known for its Maheshwar sarees, in silk and cotton.

History

The weaving history at Maheshwar, dates back to Maharani Ahilyabai Holkar, the ruler of princely  Indore State from 1765 to 1795. She brought in weavers from Surat in Gujarat and Mandu, Madhya Pradesh and established them at Maheshwar, to weave special nine-yard saris (Navvari saris) for the ladies of royal household, and turban fabric.

The tradition was revived, when the Rehwa Society was founded in 1978, by Richard Holkar of Holkar dynasty and his wife Sally Holkar. Using a grant from the Indian Central Welfare Board, they started with eight looms and eight women weavers from the local Meru community. It is situated within the Ahilya Fort at Maheshwar, on the banks of the Narmada River. Over the years the society has expanded to 250 weavers, most of them women and 110 looms. It is known for weaving Maheshwari sarees and fabric in cotton and silk.

Sally Holkar managed the society till 2003, when we established WomenWeave Charitable Trust, also based in Maheshwar. Thereafter, Mira Sagar who has worked with Rehwa for 20 years, remained the director of Rehwa Society, before starting her own line in 2012.

Today, Rehwa Society has retail outlets in cities like New Delhi and Mumbai, and in 2003 has a turnover of . Since the society is non-profit, the profits are used in employee welfare. A small colony of 45 houses has been built for the employees, which the weavers paid through their work. Besides a school till eighth standard and a creche has also been built.

title: Arthur Postle

text:
Arthur Benjamin Postle (8 March 1881 – 21 April 1965) was an Australian professional athlete, one of the country's most renowned sprinters in the early twentieth century. Born in Queensland and becoming a professional runner in 1902, Postle rose to prominence for the defeat of Beauchamp Day – then an Irish world champion – at Kalgoorlie in Western Australia in December 1906. Known thereafter as 'The Crimson Flash' for his coloured running costume, Postle also acquired the moniker "The Mighty Postle" for his defeat of Bill Growcott two years later in England, Growcott being England's champion runner. Postle's career took him throughout the United Kingdom and to New Zealand as well as across Australia, where he had a rivalry with fellow Australian champion Jack Donaldson.

Postle set world records for fifty, sixty, seventy-five, eighty and two-hundred yard sprints during his career, which ended in 1913 a year after his marriage to an Englishwoman. He ventured into business, and then became a farmer until full-retirement during the Second World War. He had four children who all survived him upon his death in Brisbane. Edward Seldon Sears wrote that Postle, together with Donaldson, had "few peers among sprinters of their day" and since his retirement he has been considered one of "the greatest of all Australian runners".

Early life
Postle was born in Springside near Pittsworth, in the Darling Downs of the Australian state of Queensland. Part of a large family, Postle was the second-oldest of nine children for Arthur Benjamin Postle Snr. and Frances Postle, née Honor. Postle's father was born in Melbourne, while his mother was English.

Postle was schooled at Springside State School, starting there in 1888. He showed much promise as a runner from early on in his career, and after leaving education in 1893 to work on his father's farm he continued to compete in local athletics tournaments. For one, he needed to catch an early morning train, which he missed. He nevertheless decided to walk the distance to the track, which took him all day.

His father disapproved of Postle's running aspirations; the family farm struggled constantly against drought. Postle was coached instead by his uncle who owned a farm next door on which he had cut a running track. After years work on his father's farm, Postle left to pursue his athletic career in 1899, while his brothers all remained to continue farming.

Professional career
Postle's early, unsuccessful, attempts in the Stawell Gift in 1901 and 1903 garnered for him some local notoriety, and he became a professional runner in 1902. His training focused largely on his technique at the start of his run. He used an unusual starting technique, with his left side prominent and his fingers spread wide. He "emphasised rhythmical breathing during springing, followed his sessions with cold showers, employed an experienced masseur who used oil... and took iron tonic occasionally and castor oil". Postle adhered to a strict diet – foods with high fat contents including milk, eggs and steak – largely based on experience rather than scientific research, which was minimal at the time. He was victorious in games held at Charters Towers and Townsville in the winter of 1904–05, becoming "unbeatable up to eighty yards". In April 1905 he won one-hundred and thirty and four-hundred and forty yard sprints at Bendigo, and in June he was victorious in a one-hundred yard run in Sydney. He returned to Townsville in September to come second in a seventy-five-yard sprint; he went back to Charters Towers in October and won prize money for his racing – equivalent to 130 Pound Sterling; he won £75 more in January, and twice again in February 1906, across several races. His later defeat of South African Reggie Walker brought him a diamond-encrusted necklace.

In 1906, in front of a 20,000-strong crowd at Kalgoorlie gold mine, Postle defeated Beauchamp Day, a champion Irish runner sponsored by promoter Rufus Naylor, in a seventy-five-yard spring. Postle's 7.20-second time was a new world record, and his achievements attracted athlete Jack Todd who became Postle's coach. He returned to the event a year later in 1907 and, being beaten in the semi-final unexpectedly by J. Condon, immediately proceeded to jump the perimeter fence and run to a local bookmakers to place money on Condon winning the final, an event which passed into folklore and is remembered often in Australian sprinting.

In 1908, at Durban Postle ran fifty yards in 5.20 seconds, another record, and later the same year he set yet another world record, running sixty yards in 6.1 seconds. His defeat of Bill Growcott in England, and his trademark crimson running gear, earned him the nicknames 'The Mighty Postle' and 'The Crimson Flash'. The Albany Advertiser recalled in 1937 that "he was always smartly attired in bright red silk singlet and knickers" which led to the latter moniker. He also opted to use a number of emblems to represent his nationality, in an era before standardised colours and emblems were used by Australian sportsmen. In addition to his crimson vest he wore green shorts with gold trim, and his shirt had an emu and a kangaroo, one on each breast.

As Postle's notoriety grew, a rivalry began between Jack Donaldson – a prolific Australian sprinter nicknamed 'Blue Streak' – and himself. Postle and American runner Charles Holway challenged Donaldson to a race at Johannesburg in February 1910 to decide who would be crowned World Champion over a one-hundred yard sprint. Though Postle began quickest, he was overtaken by Donaldson at eighty yards and the latter was victorious by 2.4 yards. Postle and Donaldson continued their rivalry, with the former dominating shorter sprints and the latter commanding the one-hundred yard runs – aside from on one occasion in 1912 when Postle defeated his rival in runs of seventy-five, one-hundred and fifty and two-hundred yard springs, setting new world records for the latter. Their record head-to-head would eventually lie at 15:6 in favour of Donaldson. Postle would also rival with Holway himself, and challenged him to several head-to-head races during his career.

In October 1912, Postle married an Englishwoman, Edna Leadbeater, in Lancashire, England. Leadbeater was the sister-in-law of Postle's old coach, Todd. The couple would go on to have four children.

Later life

After retiring from running in 1913, Postle owned an auctioneering business in Memerambi, ran a running-shoe shop, and then traded second-hand goods in Gympie. He failed as a trader in the markets of South Brisbane and became a farmer in Coopers Plains. Through the 1930s he published his autobiography, The Crimson Flash, in weekly instalments in The Sporting Globe, a Melbourne newspaper. The pieces would go on to be collated into a published autobiography edited by Gary Parker in 1995.

His mother died in 1937, and his father twelve months later. During the Second World War he sold the farm and retired to Wynnum, though he continued to coach runners well into the 1950s. He was still a regular at local running tracks, sharing his expertise with young runners. He coached Norma Croker, later an Olympic gold medal winner. He fell ill on 21 April 1965 and died in an ambulance. Streets in Brisbane and Canberra were named after him, as is a seventy-meter sprint run every year at Stawell Gift in his honour. He was inducted into the Sports Australia Hall of Fame in 1985.

title: Marc Ferrez (sculptor)

text:
Marc Ferrez (14 October 1788 – 1 April 1850) was a French sculptor and engraver who spent a large part of his career in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

Early years

Marc Ferrez was born on 14 October 1788 in Saint-Laurent, in the arrondissement of Saint-Claude, Jura, France.
He was the eldest of three brothers born in that town.
Auguste Ferrez was born in 1795 and Zéphirin Ferrez in 1797.
Their parents were a carpenter and a seamstress.
In 1809 he entered the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris where he studied under the sculptor Philippe-Laurent Roland (1746–1816) and the engraver  Pierre-Nicolas Beauvallet (1750–1818).
His brother Zepherin Ferrez (1797–1851) was also a sculptor and engraver, and also studied at the École des Beaux-Arts.
The two brothers spent six months in New York City in 1816–17.

Brazil

In 1817 the Ferrez brothers moved to Rio de Janeiro where they joined the Missão Artística Francesa  (French Artistic Mission) organized by Joachim Lebreton.
Lebreton had brought a group of artists to Brazil, arriving on 25 March 1816. These included the painter Jean-Baptiste Debret (1768–1848), the sculptor Auguste Marie Taunay (1768–1824) and his brother the painter Nicolas Antoine Taunay (1755–1830), the engraver Charles-Simon Pradier (1786–1847)) and the architect Auguste-Henri-Victor Grandjean de Montigny (1776–1850). They were to form the nucleus of a royal art academy in Brazil.

The Ferrez brothers worked with Auguste Marie Taunay, Debret and the architect Grandjean de Montigny on the decorations for the monuments erected on the occasion of the arrival of Princess Maria Leopoldina of Austria (1797–1826) and her marriage with the Emperor Pedro I of Brazil (1798–1834).
In 1820 Marc Ferrez was appointed a permanent lecturer at the Imperial Academy of Fine Arts.
After Auguste–Marie Taunay died in 1824, Marc Ferrez became deputy professor of sculpture.
When Joaquim Alão died in 1837 he became full professor.
In 1842 Marc Ferrez made the sculptural decorations of the rooms of Dona Teresa Cristina on the frigate Constitution, which brought her to Brazil.

Marc Ferrez died in Rio de Janeiro on 1 April 1850, aged 61.
Francisco Manuel Chaves Pinheiro (1822–1884) was one of his best-known pupils.
His nephew, Zepherin's son, also called Marc Ferrez, became a celebrated photographer.

Work

Marc Ferrez made copies of antiques, monumental decorations and classical busts.
His copies of statues and plaster bas reliefs were not exceptional but were skilfully executed.
Typically they were made from classical Greek models.
Most of his monumental work in terracotta has been destroyed, broken while being moved from one place to another.
He is now best known for his highly realistic and technically excellent busts.
Due to the absence of marble and high price of bronze, he was forced to make almost all his portraits in plaster, which he painted to give the illusion of metal.
The only known bronze bust is one of Pedro I (1826).

Some of his works included:
A sculpted wood cradle created with his brother, offered to the Emperor Pedro I when the princess Maria da Glória was born in 1818.
Statues of Apollo and Minerva for the facade of the Academy
Bust of Pedro I of Brazil (1826)
Bust of a Lady of the First Reign (1829)
Bust of Martim Francisco Ribeiro de Andrada (1829)
Bust of José Bonifácio de Andrada (1839)

title: Andrew Bridge (lawyer)

text:
Andrew Bridge is a New York Times Bestselling author, American lawyer, and advocate for children and families living in poverty. He became the executive director of the California-based Alliance for Children's Rights in 1997. Bridge spent 12 years in the foster care system as a child in Los Angeles County, and achieved a scholarship to Wesleyan University, became a Fulbright Scholar, Rockefeller Foundation Bellagio Resident, Stueben Schultz Gesellschaft Scholar, Lyndon B. Johnson Scholar, and graduate from Harvard Law School.

While in foster care as a child, Bridge was confined to the MacLaren Children's Center in Los Angeles County, a facility criticized for its harsh treatment of children and ultimately closed pursuant to a judicial settlement in Katie A. v. Los Angeles County. As an adult, Bridge represented children at the facility.

Under Bridge's leadership, the Alliance led the establishment of National Adoption Day in the United States.  Bridge led both a successful constitutional challenge to local judicial practices that forbid foster youth and their families from speaking publicly about their experiences and treatment by foster care officials, as well as a successful challenge to halt prevailing child welfare practices that allowed foster care officials to place children in foster homes, group homes, and other residential settings without later visiting foster children to ensure their ongoing well-being and safety.

Later Bridge joined the Broad Foundation, which under his tenure established the framework for Los Angeles County's $3.4 billion federal foster care financial waiver, allowing federal funding to support children in their own families rather than requiring children to be removed from their families and taken into state care in order to receive assistance.  He is noted for his defense of families whose children are involved in state systems of care and criticism of the use of congregate care facilities in child welfare systems.

Bridge began his legal career at the Democratic law firm of Manatt, Phelps & Phillips, LLP practicing in the corporate mergers and acquisitions department of the firm.  He left Manatt, Phelps joining the Judge David L. Bazelon Center in Washington, D.C., to litigate the constitutional and federal statutory rights of children in Alabama's public psychiatric hospitals and mental health facilities under federal class actions in Wyatt v. Poundstone and R.C. v. Hornsby. Following the Alliance for Children's Rights and his work at the Broad Foundation, Bridge went on to serve as Senior Innovation Adviser to the State of Illinois and its child welfare system. His childhood memoir Hope's Boy was named a New York Times Bestseller, Publishers Weekly Bestseller, Los Angeles Times Discoveries Book, People Magazine Critic's Choice, and Washington Post Book of the Year.  He has contributed to The Los Angeles Times, The New York Times, and other publications.

In addition, Bridge chaired the 1999-2000 Los Angeles County Blue Ribbon Task Force on the safety of children in the nation's largest child welfare system, which recommended a fundamental overhaul of the treatment, placement, and care of children. He has served as a University of California Regents' Lecturer. In 2015, he was appointed Commissioner to the Los Angeles County Probation Commission. He is a founding Director of The New Village Charter School for Girls, a charter school for pregnant and parenting teens and California's first charter school solely for girls.

title: Shake It (Iain Matthews song)

text:
"Shake It" was written and recorded by Terence Boylan in 1977.  It was covered the following year by Ian Matthews for his album Stealin' Home and became a top 20 hit single in February 1979.

Background

Concurrent with his top 40 success with "Shake It", Ian Matthews would tell Rolling Stone: "I don’t think I did anything different [to record a hit single]. I guess it's my reward. After all, I've been doing exactly what I want for 14 or 15 years." However, Matthews would later acknowledge that on the single's parent album: Stealin' Home, "I tried to add just a couple of songs that had Top 40 potential, without compromising the rest of the material [and the album] did precisely what it was supposed to do: it raised my profile, without lowering my credibility." (Matthews, who had reached #23 on the Hot 100 in 1972 fronting the Matthews Southern Comfort single "Woodstock", had as a solo act had one prior Hot 100 entry with "Da Doo Ron Ron" also in 1972.) Also Matthews would give credit for the success of "Shake It" to Mushroom Records, who picked up the Stealin' Home album for U.S. and Canadian release: (Ian Matthews quote) "I've had potential hit singles on [earlier] albums...but there's never been the enthusiasm I've had from this record company. It [gave] me a hit single."

"Shake It" had first been recorded by its composer Terence Boylan, being introduced on Boylan's 1977 self-titled album on which Timothy B. Schmitwho would join the Eagles that same yearsang background on eight of the nine tracks including "Shake It", which track also featured guitarist Al Kooper. Not chosen for US single release, Boylan's "Shake It" was given a 4 November 1977 single release in Ian Matthews's native UK; however, Matthews had been living in the US since 1973, and it was on an FM radio station in Seattle that he first heard Boylan's "Shake It". After Matthews phoned the radio station for info on the track the disc jockey sent him a copy of the Terence Boylan album from which Matthews would "cover" two songs: "Shake It" and "Don't Hang Up Your Dancing Shoes", for his album Stealin' Home recorded in the summer of 1978.

One of two tracks on Stealin' Home to feature Mel Collins on sax, "Shake It" was issued as the album's lead single to become Matthews's first top 40 hit, reaching a Hot 100 peak of #13 within a 19-week Hot 100 tenure. "Shake It" was especially popular in New England, reaching #2 in Springfield, Massachusetts (WAQY) and #3 in Bangor, Maine (WLBZ). The year-end tally for Hot 100 hits of 1979 would rank "Shake It" at #73. "Shake It" would remain Matthews's only top 40 hit as a solo act: the second single from the Stealin' Home album, the Robert Palmer composition "Give Me an Inch", peaked at #67 as Matthews's final Hot 100 entry. (The Boylan composition "Don't Hang Up Your Dancing Shoes", the third single release off Stealin' Home afforded Matthews his final appearance on a Billboard chart, peaking at #42 on the magazine's Easy Listening hit ranking, where "Shake It" had reached #21 and "Give Me an Inch" #43.)

Although "Woodstock" had afforded Matthews' Southern Comfort a three-week tenure at #1 in the UK in 1970, Matthews would never appear on the UK chart as a solo act despite a string of UK single releases, including "Shake It" released in February 1979 after three previous tracks off Stealin' Home had failed as singles. "Shake It" would afford Matthews a top ten hit in Canada, peaking at #6: the track had been especially popular in New Brunswick, reaching #1 on CIHI in Fredericton. "Shake It" would also become a top 20 hit in New Zealand, and would chart in Australia with a #65 peak.

Sales of 800,000 units were cited for Matthews's "Shake It" single in May 1979.

Use in media
"Shake It" is heard at the beginning of the 1980 film Little Darlings: (Ian Matthews quote) "The first I knew about the song being in the movie was when it came out and a friend called to ask if I’d heard it." The song can also be heard on the radio in the game The Warriors from Rockstar Games.

title: Concepción Mariño

text:
Concepción Mariño Carige Fitzgerald (1790–1854) was a heroine of the Venezuelan War of Independence.

Biography
Born in El Valle del Espíritu Santo, Mariño was raised in a wealthy family. She was the daughter of Santiago Mariño de Acuña, a Spaniard who had established himself in Venezuela and an Irish woman, Atanasia Carige Fitzgerald; she was the sister of Santiago Mariño. Her parents owned estates on the island of Trinidad and eastern Venezuela, including one on the islet of Chacachacare and another in Delta Amacuro. She married Jose Maria Sanda; they had five children. After marriage, she inherited the estate of Chacachacare and accumulated substantial assets in land and property.

After the capitulation of the First Republic in mid-1812, Mariño's ranch in Chacachacare became the meeting place for Republicans. Mariño played a key role, taking charge of weapons smuggling from Trinidad to the mainland to be used by the troops of Simon Bolivar, though this caused a lawsuit under the authority of British martial law.

The campaign to liberate eastern Venezuela began on January 2, 1813, on the Chacachacare estate. It included the drafting and signing of the Acta Chacachacare by  Santiago Mariño, Francisco Azcue, Jose Francisco Bermudez, Manuel Piar and Manuel Valdes, which mentions Mariño as a "magnanimous woman", and started the Campaña de Oriente. In 1821, when Venezuela was facing the threat of Miguel de la Torre, Mariño was involved in shipping weapons from Jamaica for the Bolivar Army.

She died in Chacachacare in 1854.
