title: 1000hp (album)

text:
1000 hp, stylized as 1000HP, is the sixth studio album by American rock band Godsmack. It is a follow-up to the band's 2010 gold-selling album The Oracle and was released on August 5, 2014.

Making of the record
On November 6, 2013, it was reported that Godsmack had begun writing for the new yet to be titled album. On February 5, 2014 frontman Sully Erna tweeted that the band has made massive headway in the songwriting process for album. On April 20, Erna revealed on his personal Facebook page that the band has completed working on album, stating:

Two days later, the band made an official announcement on its official website that they have finished the album recording and that they have recorded 15 songs, 10 of which have made it on the album. The full track list was revealed on July 10.

Writing

In an interview with Billboard, Erna revealed that the writing process for 1000hp was collaborative, stating: "When it was time to start writing again, the guys brought in a batch of songs and I had a batch of songs I'd been working on and we laid them all on the table and started carving through them and seeing which ones we were gonna tighten up and which ones were not gonna make the cut." The result, according to Erna, is a characteristically hard-hitting affair that ranges from the blazing, autobiographical title track and first single to more experimental and stretched-out fare such as "Generation Day" and "Nothing Comes Easy."

Prior to the interview, and during a live Facebook Q&A chat, the band was asked whether every member contributed to the album. Erna was the one to answer that question, insisting that, "[E]very one contributed to this album and brought something [t]o the table."

Recording
1000hp was recorded in Godsmack's newly built 4,000-square-foot headquarters in Boston. "We just built it this year," explained bassist Robbie Merrill. "We have been looking to have one big place for a long time. All our equipment has been stored in four or five different places and we wanted to get everything in one room. So we leased out a warehouse for at least five years. We went in there and put up some walls and made a studio and a lounger. We basically have all our stuff in storage at one end and at the other end we have the rehearsal space and we have our studio all set to record, as well as the lounge and a kitchen."

"It was also great to do this album in our hometown," concluded Merrill. "We are all born and raised in the Boston area and it was good for all of us to just soak up the atmosphere of the town and let it influence our music."

"We have everything there and we don't really need to go anywhere else now to either rehearse for tours or to record new music," said Erna who, in the first webisode of "The Making of 1000hp", took viewers on a guided tour of the band's new headquarters, showing how it looked when the band first leased it and how they transformed it into a recording, rehearsal and storage complex.

Production

1000hp was mixed and produced by Dave Fortman, who had worked with Godsmack on their previous studio album, The Oracle, as well as with other bands such as Superjoint Ritual, Mudvayne, Otep, Slipknot and Simple Plan, and on both of Evanescence's multi-platinum selling albums, The Open Door and Fallen. "I love the studio," said Fortman. "I came back to get that unique sound for this new Godsmack record and we really nailed it and had a great time." "It was great," said guitarist Tony Rombola in response to Guitar Worlds question regarding how it was like working with Fortman. "He has a lot of ideas and was a lot of fun to work with. He's also a guitar player and plays drums, so he was able to give us input and bounce ideas off of us." The album was co-produced by Sully Erna.

Album cover
On July 1, Godsmack debuted the album cover for 1000hp online. The album cover plays off the theme of the album's title as it features the signature Godsmack sun logo and a burst of flames from which a classic car emerges.

Sound
In an interview with The Pulse of Radio, Sully Erna described the sound of the album as "a little bit more raw, a little bit more open," contributing that to the production of the album, which he described as "really kind of raw and in your face." When asked by Revolver'''s Richard Bienstock about the sound of the album, and how each song brings something different to the table, Erna responded: "To me, songs like '1000hp' and 'FML'—which has a bit of a Nirvana punky thing in the choruses—are in one category. Then there's 'Generation Day' and 'Nothing Comes Easy,' which are more epic and weird and unique and artsy, that are in another category. Then there's straight-up songs like 'Locked & Loaded' and 'What's Next' that are in the same category." Erna went on to say that it's funny how the songs are paired up like that, but insisted that was "one of the benefits of everyone in the band having their own stuff when we came in to do this record."

"We wanted [the sound of the album] to be straight forward and simple," said Tony Rombola. "I think that was the theme. There are elements of punk in some of the grooves that Sully brought in, and even in the selection of some of the riffs that I had as well. A lot of it is simpler, with some different feels."

Promotion
On June 2, a 27-second audio preview of the song "1000hp" was uploaded on Godsmack's official YouTube channel. On June 9, the single made its way to rock radio stations in the United States and was uploaded in its entirety on the band's YouTube channel. The single became available for download on June 10. Following the release of "1000hp", "Generation Day" was released as a downloadable song on July 21. One day after the release of "1000hp", Godsmack and Republic Records held a private listening party for the album on June 10 at New York City's Quad Studios. For the event, select members of the media were invited and presented with a taste of the album while Sully Erna, after being introduced by label co-founder and chief executive Avery Lipman, engaged them with stories about each song played.

On July 28, the album was made available for stream via iTunes Radio. On August 3, Erna and drummer Shannon Larkin sat down with WAAF (FM)'s Mistress Carrie for an exclusive interview to discuss the new album and the history of the band. During the 60-minute interview, eight tracks were sampled, including the title track, "Generation Day", "Something Different", and "Locked and Loaded." On August 4, Godsmack took the stage at the iHeartRadio Theater in New York City as part of the iHeartRadio Live Series for an intimate live performance. The show, which was streamed online, included live performances of the title track "1000hp", as well as "What's Next?" and "Generation Day."

An acoustic version of the song "Turning to Stone" appears in The Walking Dead compilation Songs of Survival Vol. 2, included in the Blu-ray and DVD release of the show's fourth season.

The Making of 1000hp
To promote 1000hp, Godsmack teamed up with iHeartRadio to create "The Making of 1000hp", a series of five webisodes which give fans a look at the process of making the album. Each webisode is filled with exclusive content, behind-the-scenes footage, interviews, and sneak peeks at the album's songs. The five webisodes premiered on July 9, 16, 23, 30, and August 6.

Tour
In support of 1000hp, Godsmack is set to headline the Revolt on the Rio Grande, the Monster Energy Aftershock Festival, the Rockstar Energy Drink Uproar Festival and KISW 99.9 Pain In The Grass. Furthermore, the band has announced a five-date Canadian tour that will see them perform in Lethbridge, Saskatoon, Edmonton, Regina and Winnipeg. "We're all pretty fired up at the moment, and that extends to taking our music overseas," said Sully Erna regarding the possibility of an international tour. "It's time to give some real focus to our touring activities outside of North America, and we think this new single will make our intentions clear. It's one for the fans, and that means our fans everywhere..."
Godsmack were announced on August 20, 2014, to be part of the Soundwave Festival in Australia. It has expanded to a 2-day festival for the first time, next year in February/March 2015.

Release
On August 5, 2014, 1000hp was released in the U.S. via Republic Records, a division of Universal Music Group. In Europe, the album was released on September 1 via Spinefarm Records. On July 7, the album was made available for preorder via Amazon and the band's official website. The iTunes pre-order went live on July 21.

 Reception

Critical response

Reviews for the album have been mostly positive. Rick Florino of ARTISTdirect was the first to review the album, describing it as "a high watermark for the Boston group" and "the best hard rock record of the year." Revolver's Richard Bienstock gave the album four out of five stars and praised its title track, which he felt was up there with 'Whatever' and 'Keep Away' in terms of tone and delivery, and commended the band for pushing their boundaries on several songs such as "Nothing Comes Easy" and "Something Different." Bienstock concluded his review by saying, "With 1000hp, Godsmack offer up a few new sounds, while at the same time remaining firmly resolute in their musical mission." Similarly, About.com music journalist Chad Bowar gave the album four out of five stars and praised the band for keeping things fresh while "never straying far from their signature style."

Jeremy Thomas of 411mania.com gave the album an 8.0 out of 10 rating and praised the band for "adopting a few forays outside of their core sound without ever straying so far as to fall off the path." Thomas noted that, while 1000 hp "isn't an all-time great album," the band "delivers some great hooks on the album" and that "There isn't really a weak track amongst [the album's] ten songs." At The Boston Globe, Maura Johnston gave the album a favorable review and described its sound as "leaner and meaner, and a bit nostalgic, too." Another favorable review comes from Chad Childers of Loudwire who felt the album "succeeds in bringing the hard in heavy doses with just the perfect smattering of melody in just the right places." AllMusic reviewer Gregory Heaney gave the album three out of five stars, stating that it's "Godsmack at their most focused, showing that they've finally found the path back to their roots that they'd been searching for."

Commercial performance1000hp debuted at number three on the Billboard 200 with first-week sales of 58,000 copies. That made 1000hp the first Godsmack full-length studio album not to debut at number one in more than a decade following the release of 2000's Awake which debuted at number five, and therefore broke the band's streak of three number one albums in a row. The album was initially forecasted to sell between 45,000 and 50,000 copies on its opening week.

The following week, the album dropped to number eight with sales of 21,000 copies for a 63% sales decrease. On its third week, the album dropped to number fifteen with sales of 12,400 copies for a 42% sales decrease. On iTunes, 1000hp topped the Top Rock Albums Chart. In Canada, the album debuted at number two with first-week sales of 6,200 copies. Meanwhile, the album topped the HMV Canada CD sales chart for the week ending August 9.

title: Fort Loyal

text:
Fort Loyal was a British settler refuge and colonial outpost built in 1678 at Falmouth (present-day Portland, Maine) in Casco Bay. It was destroyed in 1690 by Abenaki and French forces at the Battle of Fort Loyal. The fort was rebuilt in 1742 and renamed Falmouth Fort before King George's War and rearmed again in 1755 for the French and Indian War. The fort was rebuilt a final time in 1775 for the American Revolution.

The peninsula was first colonized by the English in 1632 as a fishing and trading village named Casco.  When the Massachusetts Bay Colony absorbed the Province of Maine in 1658, the town's name changed to Falmouth. In 1676, the village was destroyed by the Abenaki during King Philip's War. English colonists returned two years later when peace resumed.

Fort Loyal was built in 1678 in the center of Portland at the foot of present-day India Street to protect the town from future attacks. In 1690 Fort Loyal consisted of four wooden blockhouses and eight guns. During King William's War, a raiding party of French and Native allies destroyed the English settlement and massacred its inhabitants in the Battle of Fort Loyal (1690). At the end of the conflict Massachusetts did not rebuilt the fort, instead building Fort Casco in Falmouth.

The fort was rebuilt in 1742 and renamed "Falmouth Fort" before King George's War and then rearmed during the French and Indian War in 1755.

Reverend Thomas Smith described the 1759 celebration at the fort in Falmouth upon the arrival of news that Quebec had fallen: "The cannon were fired at the fort yesterday and today. Mr. Mayhew's house was illuminated, and small arms fired in the evening, upon further and more authentic news of the victory at Quebec."

Earthworks were constructed on the Fort Loyal site in 1775 as part of harbor defenses during the American Revolution and known as the "Lower Battery." Elements from earlier iterations of the fort, such as the guard house, were still in use. The bluff on which the fort had been located was leveled off  during the construction of the Grand Trunk Railway in the 1850s. Today the fort's location is memorialized by a plaque on the Grand Trunk Office Building at the corner of India and Thames Streets in Portland.

title: Midhaven

text:
Midhaven is a Metal band from Mumbai, India. Formed in 2011, Midhaven comprises Karan Kaul, Shreyas Rane, Abhishek Sawant and Viraj Saxena. Their music is diverse as they have a mixture of Clean and Harsh Vocal styles, Progressive/Sludge guitar play and Progressive Drums. They are currently signed to Universal Music Group (Universal Music India) and have launched two successful albums - 'Tales From The Tide E.P.' & 'Spellbound'. They are known for having songs with lyrically heavy concepts and stories.

Formation and early years

Midhaven formed in early 2011 with Karan Kaul on Guitar and Vocals, Abhishek Sawant on Bass Vocals, Shreyas Rane on Guitar and Aviraj Kumar on Drums. 'The band started writing new music from the minute we met' is what Kaul had to say about their first time in a practice space. Abhishek Sawant and Karan Kaul know each other from college, while Shreyas Rane was introduced to Abhishek by Karan. As 17-year-olds, they started making music while still attending HR College and KC college respectively. Most of their Music was very raw and lacked good production. They met Jordan Veigas, their current producer in 2011 itself and planned an E.P. in the coming years.
Aviraj Kumar was introduced to the band by Karan Kaul, as he was in Karan's previous band 'Godhand'. 'At the time, Aviraj Kumar was a perfect fit for us.' states Kaul in an interview with a metal magazine in Mumbai.
For a year after that, Midhaven went by the name 'Temple Smoke' as they were out of ideas.

2012-2013 Tales From The Tide E.P.

The band changed their name to 'Midhaven' which was derived from the astronomical term 'Midheaven'.
After a year of being in the Indian Music Scene, Midhaven had progressed and were working with a new producer, Jordan Veigas, leaving Sahil 'The Demonstealer' Makhija's Demonic Studios.
Jordan had given Midhaven a new sound with their new EP in progress as they hit the studio in December, 2012. The band finished recording in February, 2013 and were ready to launch their album. On May 5, 2013, Midhaven launched an E.P. titled 'Tales From The Tide' to much critical acclaim from fans. People loved their new sound and Progressive Metal influences but the band stated that this 'was just a tease' for what they had planned for the future.
They had just started to build a fan base outside their own city, playing bigger venues with a wide range of audience.
The E.P. had a fairly positive response as people were very interested in the lyrical stories and fiction of the E.P. album.
Midhaven had already hinted that this was just a sneak preview or teaser to a much heavier and louder album in the works.

In June 2013, Midhaven announce from their Facebook page stating that they are in the studio for a second time in the same year to record their latest album, yet untitled.
Midhaven officially stepped into the studio in June 2013 with producer Jordan Veigas at Jordan Veigas Music Productions. They announced that they were making a much 'heavier' album. Then, in September, 2013, Midhaven announce that they had finished recording their new album now entitled 'Spellbound' and 'have something in store for the fans'.
In November 2013, Midhaven signed with Universal Music India (under Universal Music Group), one of the largest Music Labels in the world.
While in the studio, Midhaven decided to have Jordan, their producer, sing on one of the songs called Death Row

Midhaven were then on hiatus for 3 months until they had a press release in March, 2014, displaying their artwork, new photoshoot, etc.
In March 2014, Midhaven announced that they were not active as their drummer Aviraj Kumar, had left the band due to personal reasons. They soon recruited former Reverrse Polarity vocalist as their new drummer, Viraj Saxena, who had just come back from S.A.M. school of Music.

Their press release also informed the metal community about their signing to Universal Music India.
'Spellbound' was released worldwide under Universal Music India in physical and digital forms.
Midhaven also released another press release about their album concept, stating it to be a hallucination of a man who, in the form of the Hindu God/Deity Shiva, kills the Greek Demigod Apollo.

title: August Kraus

text:
August Friedrich Johann Kraus (9 July 1868, Ruhrort - 8 February 1934, Berlin) was a German sculptor.

Life

He was the son of a coachman. In 1877, the family moved to Baden-Baden where he became an apprentice to a headstone sculptor. His family moved again in 1883, this time to  Strasbourg, and he continued his studies at the municipal Arts and Crafts School. From 1887 to 1891, he was enrolled at the Prussian Academy of Art in Berlin, where he studied with  Ernst Herter. For the next seven years, he was a Master Student of Reinhold Begas and continued to work under his influence for some time after.

In 1900. his work on the Siegesallee (Victory Avenue) project won him the Academy's "Staatspreis", which included a stipendium for five years of study in Rome. This enabled him to break away from his artistic and financial dependence on Begas. Once there, his style took a turn towards Neoclassicism. Upon his return, he became a member of the Berlin Secession and served as its vice-president from 1911 to 1913. He was Director of the Rauch-Museum from 1914 to 1920. The Sculptors' Association of Berlin elected him its first President. His work was part of the sculpture event in the art competition at the 1928 Summer Olympics.

After the Nazi Machtergreifung in 1933, he signed a Declaration of Loyalty to Hitler and  became a member of the Presidential Council of the Reichskulturkammer. That same year, he was appointed chairman of the Department of Fine Arts in a newly "cleansed" Academy and served as Provisional President until his death. It has been reported that he died at the exact moment his statue of Henry the Child in the Siegesallee was being damaged by a storm, but this is probably apocryphal. He is buried in the Friedhof Heerstraße, but also has an "honorary grave" in Berlin.

Selected major works

1898: Monument to the SMS Iltis, a gunboat which sank in a storm off the coast of Shantung; located along The Bund in the Shanghai International Settlement. It was destroyed near the end of the World War I.
1900-1901: Figures in the Siegesallee, Berlin. Kraus was the youngest sculptor to work on the project. He was closely assisted and supervised by Reinhold Begas and produced two sets of figures:
Group 9, consisting of Henry II, Margrave of Brandenburg-Stendal (also known as "Henry the Child") in the central position, flanked by side figures of Wartislaw IV, Duke of Pomerania and Wedigo von Plotho, a 14th Century knight, for which his friend Heinrich Zille was the model.
Group 32, with Wilhelm I as the central figure, flanked by Helmut von Moltke and Otto von Bismarck. There is some disagreement over the extent of Begas' contributions to this group.
1910: Statue of Heinrich Lanz, on the premises of Heinrich Lanz AG in Mannheim.
1926-28: "Knabe mit Ziege" (Boy with a Goat), in the Savignyplatz, Berlin.
1928: "Gefallenen-Denkmal" (Memorial to the Fallen), in the Hohenzollernpark in Anklam.
1929: The tomb of Heinrich Zille, Südwestkirchhof Stahnsdorf.

Critical reception

Larry Flick from Billboard wrote, "This tender -hearted pop ballad, laced with lush harmonies and soft percussion, should net high marks at adult -leaning top 40, urban, and AC outlets. Easy -listening, melodic fare is tailor -made for quartet's increasingly ardent audience.

title: Alfred M. Wall

text:
Alfred Mervyn Wall (1 November 1889 – 2 October 1957) was a British trade unionist and political activist.

Born in East Hamlet, Shropshire on 1 November 1889, Wall moved to London to work as a compositor, and was a member of the British Socialist Party (BSP).  This affiliated to the Labour Party after World War I, and Wall was unexpectedly elected to Wandsworth Metropolitan Borough Council for Clapham North in 1918.  In this role, he frequently clashed with the local socialist preacher and pioneer druid George Watson Macgregor Reid.  He was also sympathetic to anarchism, and chaired the Frank Kitz Appeal Committee.

Wall represented the BSP's Clapham branch at the meeting which founded the Communist Party of Great Britain (CPGB), and subsequently sat as a Communist councillor.  Initially one of the communist's main speakers in London, he stood as a joint Communist Party-Labour Party candidate in Streatham at the 1924 general election, taking 13.8% of the vote.

Wall represented the London Society of Compositors at the Labour Party conference in 1925, and eventually defected to the party, although he was still a communist in 1927, when he became a joint secretary of the "Hands Off China" campaign.  In 1926, he was elected as Secretary of the London Trades Council.  While holding this position, he spent much of his time promoting a trade union for actors, based on a closed shop principle.  This became Equity, and he was elected as its first secretary.  Later in the 1930s, he also served as a vice-president of the Spanish Medical Aid Committee,

In 1938, Wall was elected as General Secretary of the London Society of Compositors, and stood down from the London Trades Council.  During World War II, he served on the National Arbitration Union, and on Lord Swinton's Security Executive.

Wall retired from his union posts in 1945, but worked for a while as the secretary and welfare officer of C. and E. Layton.

This is a list of notable street photographers. Street photography is photography conducted for art or enquiry that presents unmediated chance encounters and random incidents within public places. Street photography does not need the backdrop of a street or even an urban environment. Though people are usually present, street photography may lack people and can be of an object or environment where the image projects a decidedly human character in facsimile or aesthetic.

title: Joseph Coe

text:
Joseph Coe (November 12, 1784 – October 17, 1854) was a leader in the early days of the Latter-day Saint movement.

Coe was born in Cayuga County, New York. In 1831, while living in Macedon, New York, he joined the newly established Church of Christ, led by Joseph Smith. He was ordained an elder and moved his family to Kirtland, Ohio to join the main gathering of Latter-day Saints. In 1831 he served short missions to New York and Missouri.

In August 1831, Coe was one of the individuals who assisted Smith in laying the cornerstones for the temple at the Temple Lot in Independence, Missouri. Coe was ordained a high priest by Smith on October 1, 1831, and in 1834 he became one of the twelve inaugural members of the presiding high council in Kirtland; he was a member of the high council until 1837. In 1835, Coe provided $800 of the $2400 used by the church to purchase some mummies and papyri which Smith used to produce the Book of Abraham.

After the collapse of the Kirtland Safety Society, Coe became one of the Latter-day Saint dissenters. He was 'cut off' from the church by the high council in December 1837 and was formally excommunicated in December 1838. Coe lived the rest of his life in Kirtland and did not associate with any Latter-day Saint group after his excommunication.

Coe died in Kirtland when he was trampled by his bull on his farm. He was buried in the Kirtland North Cemetery.

title: Nasr ibn Habib al-Muhallabi

text:
Nasr ibn Habib al-Muhallabi () was a member of the Muhallabid family who served as the governor of Ifriqiya for the Abbasid Caliphate, from 791 to 793.

Career
Nasr is mentioned as having served under Yazid ibn Hatim al-Muhallabi while the latter was governor of Egypt (762–769); he was sent to put down a revolt at Sakha in 767 and was wounded during the fighting. He subsequently made his way to Ifriqiya, where according to al-Nuwayri he became well-liked and developed a reputation for good conduct. During the governorship of the infirm Rawh ibn Hatim al-Muhallabi (788–791), Nasr was secretly appointed by the caliph Harun al-Rashid as Rawh's successor, after the local postmaster informed Harun of Rawh's condition and urged him to preselect a replacement. Upon Rawh's death in early 791, his son Qabisah was initially proclaimed as his successor, but Nasr was recognized as governor after the postmaster delivered Harun's appointment letter to him.

Nasr's governorship lasted for approximately two years and seems to have proceeded without incident. His administration was brought to an end, however, after Rawh's son al-Fadl travelled to Harun's court and convinced the caliph to appoint him over Ifriqiya instead. Following his dismissal, Nasr appears to have remained in Ifriqiya until the death of al-Fadl, whereupon he and other Muhallabids were expelled from the province by 'Abdallah ibn al-Jarud.

According to al-Ya'qubi, Nasr was briefly appointed as the governor of Arminiya in ca. late 790s, but was dismissed shortly after.

title: Hamilton Glasair

text:
The SH-1 tandem Glasair was an original homebuilt aircraft design by Tom Hamilton, who would use the lessons learned from this to build the Glasair I, II and III series of homebuilt aircraft.

Design
The Glasair was an all composite, low-wing tandem seat aircraft with conventional landing gear. The design was wind-tunnel tested prior to construction. The design was modified to a tricycle gear arrangement after visibility problems from the rear seat were noted on solo test flights. The design flew only three times. Hamilton's partner Ted Setzer burned the prototype before moving on to the next design.

title: Guillaume-Charles Faipoult

text:
Guillaume-Charles Faipoult (Formally Guillaume-Charles, chevalier Faipoult de Maisoncelle; 4 December 1752 – 8 October 1817) was a French aristocrat, soldier and politician who was Minister of Finance during the French Revolution. He then represented France in Italy, where he organized the newly formed republics. During the First French Empire he was prefect of the Scheldt department, and then Minister of Finance in Spain under Joseph Bonaparte. Faipoult was prefect of Saône-et-Loire during the Hundred Days.

Early years

Guillaume-Charles Faipoult de Maisoncelle, was born in Paris on 4 December 1752, son of a noble family of Champagne.
His parents were Charles Faipoult de Maisoncelles, lord of Fays and of Trois-Fontaines-la-Ville, Marne (died 1761), and Marie Aubert (died 1754).
He studied at the Royal School of Engineers at Charleville-Mézières, where Lazare Carnot was his fellow pupil, and graduated as a lieutenant of the engineers.
He was promoted to captain, but resigned in 1780 after having been refused permission to fight for the independence of the English colonies in America. He then devoted himself to the study of the sciences.

French Revolution

Faipoult was a partisan of the French Revolution, and a member of the Jacobins society.
In 1792 he was appointed secretary-general of the Ministry of the Interior under Jean-Marie Roland.
The next year he was forced out of office by a decree of the National Convention that banished all former nobles from Paris.
He was not able to return until after the Thermidorian Reaction of 9 Thermidor II (27 July 1794).
On 10 Vendémiaire III (1 October 1794) Faipoult was named Minister of Finance, and held this position until 24 Pluviôse IV (13 February 1796).
It was under his administration that the pledges of assignats were broken.

Italy

Faipoult was then sent as minister plenipotentiary to the Republic of Genoa, where he destroyed the influence of the agents of Austria and England and gained the confidence of Bonaparte.
He was minister plenipotentiary to Genoa in years IV to VI.
While in Genoa during the transition from the rule of the oligarchy to the Ligurian Republic in June 1797 he came into conflict with Jean Lannes, the future Marshall.
Lannes' blunt speech threatened to undo Faipoult's diplomacy. Lannes accused Faipoult with meddling in military affairs.
Napoleon had to intervene to smooth out the dispute.

Napoleon wanted to take Faipoult on the expedition to Egypt.
However he was charged in turn with missions to Milan, Rome and Naples, which kept him in Italy.
Failpoult was commissioner of the French government in Italy from years VI to VII.
He organized most of the small republics that were founded at that time. His quarrel with Jean Étienne Championnet in Naples were denounced by Bertrand du Calvados, and he was forced to go into hiding until the coup of 18 Brumaire VIII (9 November 1799).

First Empire

Bonaparte named Faipoult Prefect of the Scheldt department on 9 March 1800.
He was made a member of the Legion of Honour on 25 Prairial XII (14 June 1806).
Accusations of negligence reached Napoleon, who dismissed him on 18 September 1808. The accusations proved false.
Joseph Bonaparte, then king of Spain, compensated him with the position of his Minister of Finance.
Faipoult did not return to France until 1813.

During the Hundred Days of 1815 when Napoleon returned to power, Faipoult was prefect of Saône-et-Loire from 7 May to 30 July 1815.
He defended Mâcon against the allies.
He opened the gates of the city of Macon to the Austrians when authorized by Marshal Louis-Gabriel Suchet.
Faipoult was then arrested, and retired to Belgium.
He returned to Paris in 1816.

Guillaume-Charles Faipoult died in Augy, Yonne, on 8 October 1817.
He was survived by one daughter, who was married to the baron Louis de Séganville, a colonel of the hussars, commander of the 2d Hussar regiment.

title: Global Terrorism Database

text:
The Global Terrorism Database (GTD) is a database of terrorist incidents from 1970 onward. As of May 2021, the list  extended through 2019 recording over 200,000 incidents, although data from 1993 is excluded.  The database is maintained by the National Consortium for the Study of Terrorism and Responses to Terrorism (START) at the University of Maryland, College Park in the United States. It is also the basis for other terrorism-related measures, such as the Global Terrorism Index (GTI) published by the Institute for Economics and Peace.

Data
The GTD describe itself as the "most comprehensive unclassified data base on terrorist events in the world" and includes over 200,000 terrorist attacks in its 2021 version. The entire database (about 80 MB Excel file and 9 MB geodatabase file) is available for download via the website. The GTD includes more than  95,000  bombings . It also includes more than 20,000 assassinations and more than 15,000 kidnappings.

The manner of encoding of the data is described in a codebook, also available as PDF download from the website.  The codebook states that the database was designed to be "useful to as broad an audience as possible" and that hence researchers chose to "err on the side of inclusiveness."

History
In 2001, the University of Maryland, College Park obtained a large database of terrorist attacks from 1970 to 1997 collated by Pinkerton Global Intelligence Services. Data from 1993 was missing because it got lost in an office move by Pinkerton. Although START attempted to retrospectively code these events, they believe that around 85% of the original data is still missing; as such, data from 1993 is not included in the main database, however the surviving data is still available to download separately. With funding from the National Institute of Justice, the University of Maryland finished digitizing the data in December 2005. In April 2006, the National Consortium for the Study of Terrorism and Responses to Terrorism (START), working with the Center for Terrorism and Intelligence Studies (CETIS), received additional funding from the Human Factors Division of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to extend the GTD beyond 1997. The data generated for 1997 to 2007 was then harmonized with the Pinkerton data from 1970 to 1997 to create a unified database of terrorist events from 1970 to 2007 (excluding 1993). New years were periodically added, and as of August 2014, the data goes up to 2014.

The GTD was formally introduced in a paper in Terrorism and Political Violence by Gary LaFree and Laura Dugan of START, published in 2007. An update on the GTD by LaFree was published by Perspectives on Terrorism in 2010. Another update was published in Evidence-based Counterterrorism Policy in 2012. In 2017, Benjamin Acosta and Kristen Ramos published the 1993 Terrorism and Political Violence Dataset, which marks a comprehensive recollection of the previously missing 1993 data.

In 2018, the GTD suffered a lapse in funding that caused projects and updates to be temporarily put on hold. The Department of Defense Combating Terrorism and Technical Support Office and the German Federal Foreign Office were able to provide short-term funds which enabled the GTD to put out their report for 2018, but the Global Terrorism Database continues to seek funding for the long term. If they are not able to get it, they will be unable to update for the indefinite future and the GTD may not remain free as a result.

Reception

Use in other databases and indices
Data from the Global Terrorism Database is used to generate the Global Terrorism Index (GTI) published by the Institute for Economics and Peace.

Academic reception
A number of academic papers studying various aspects of terrorism, including trends in the amount and types of terrorism, draws on data from the GTD for its empirical analysis.

In his book The Better Angels of Our Nature, author Steven Pinker used data from the Global Terrorism Database for his analysis of trends in terrorism, calling it "the major publicly available dataset on terrorist attacks."

In 2014, Pape et al. observed that, "according to the GTD data today, there were over 70 percent more suicide attacks in 2013 (619) than the previous peak in 2007 (359) during the Iraq war."  Meanwhile, their Chicago Project on Security and Terrorism (CPOST) claims a 19 percent decrease for the same period:

Pape et al. noted that this difference can be explained by a change in methodology between 2007 and 2013.  As noted above, the GTD data were collected by four different organizations:

Pape et al. quote GTD officials as claiming that their "researchers, past and present, have ensured that the entire database uses the same standards for inclusion and is as comprehensive as possible."  Pape et al. disagree while noting that their CPOST methodology has been consistent since their first recorded incident in 1982.  They conclude, "American policy makers and the public deserve the best data available on terrorism, one of the most important national security issues of our time."

Reception in news media and blogs
The Global Terrorism Database has been cited in The Guardian, using a database of terrorism we look at how the frequency and type of attack has changed the New York Times, the Washington Post, the Wall Street Journal, and Foreign Policy.

While calling the Global Terrorism Database a treasure trove of information, a 2013 Washington Post fact-checking article criticized its use by government officials to hype the threat of terrorism around the world, given its use of a definition of terrorism conflicting with Congressionally required law.

An article for Stratfor stated that the Database does not pull incidents from thin air, but expressed concern that claims of a 70% increase in 2017 North American terrorist fatalities were based on the GTD classifying the 2017 Las Vegas shooting as an essentially certain case of goal-driven ideological terrorism; when no clear ideological or political motive has been found. Excluding that one incident would have yielded a 10% decline.

An article for Security Magazine noted that trends monitored by the Global Terrorism Database showed that Global Terrorism was declining, but that U.S. attacks are on the rise. According to the trends, global terrorism had decreased for the fourth consecutive year, but terrorist attacks were the highest they had been in the United States since 1982. The report by the Global Terrorism Database also noted that the number of U.S.-based attacks in 2017 and 2018 had remained stable, despite an increase in attacks to more than 65 in 2017.

In July 2023, Alexander Fürniß and Tobias Müller published an article in the German popular science magazine Katapult in which they investigated the presence of erroneous entries in the database. Aside from the most high-profile attacks, they found inconsistencies in many records for Germany from German reunification through July 2021, attributing the errors to a lack of time and personnel, particularly individuals with knowledge of the states involved, to conduct case-by-case reviews. The public databases on terrorist attacks, would in any case rarely meet the high standards of empirical research. However, Fürniß and Müller stressed that this did not mean the data were unusable, as they were still reliable for describing developments over time and providing information on changes in the modus operandi of terrorist organizations.

title: Everything Will Be Alright in the End

text:
Everything Will Be Alright in the End is the ninth studio album by American rock band Weezer, released on October 7, 2014. It is Weezer's only album released by Republic Records, and the third and final Weezer album produced by Ric Ocasek, who previously produced both Blue (1994) and Green (2001).

Everything Will Be Alright in the End departs from the electronic pop production of Weezer's previous two albums, Raditude and Hurley, returning to a sound more reminiscent of the band's earlier albums. The lyrics deal with singer Rivers Cuomo's relationship with his father figures, fans and women.

The album received positive reviews and became the most acclaimed Weezer album since Pinkerton (1996). It is the band's fifth album to peak in the Billboard 200 top five, reaching No. 5 and selling 34,000 copies its first week. The album was supported by three singles: "Back to the Shack", "Cleopatra", and "Da Vinci". As of early 2016, the album has sold 100,000 copies in the U.S.

Background and recording
In 2010, Weezer released two albums: Hurley, and a collection of unreleased material, Death to False Metal. Shortly after their release, the band announced that work had begun on a ninth studio album, with the intent of a 2011 release. Set to be produced by Shawn Everett, who had worked on the band's previous two releases, the album was shelved. At this time, band frontman Rivers Cuomo stated: "We just started working on our tenth record. I was talking to the producer and he was saying, "These songs sound totally different from Hurley. Hurley was kind of dark, and the new songs sound like you're 16, riding your bicycle to get a Slurpee." The band abandoned work on the album, in order to give primary songwriter Cuomo more time to write more material.

Cuomo wanted to create a "complex, classic album", but hit a creative wall during the hiatus. In May 2013, following his yearly Vipassana meditation trip, Cuomo came up with "a strong vision of the album". He announced plans to begin recording a new album in January 2014, with work continuing through the summer. Ric Ocasek was announced as the album's producer; Ocasek produced the band's self-titled first and third albums, otherwise known as the Blue Album (1994) and the Green Album (2001). The band chose him as the producer based on the feeling that he would best be able to return to "the sound and the vibe and the energy of where [the band] came from", while also allowing them to "explore and try new things". Bassist Scott Shriner described Ocasek's production style as "very serious".

The band recorded the majority of the album in The Village, a recording studio located in Los Angeles, California. On March 19, 2014, Weezer released a clip of two new songs on the band's official YouTube account that ended with the words "in the studio now". On June 13, the album title was announced.

Writing and composition
Over 200 songs were considered for the album, with 20 being tracked and "a dozen or so" being chosen for the album. According to the album's official press release, the album is organized thematically around three groups of songs: "Belladonna", "The Panopticon Artist" and "Patriarchia". Band leader Rivers Cuomo described the album's theme as "an increased awareness of the impermanence of everything we [take] for granted [and] "how to make peace with that." Drummer Patrick Wilson described the album's sound as "bombastic, loose, kind of booming. [The] record sounds like it's going to have the tight structure of the Blue Album with a little bit more abandon like Pinkerton". The band stated the album would feature less "modern pop production" than its previous two albums, Raditude and Hurley. The album as a whole has been described as alternative rock, power pop and pop punk.

"Belladonna" includes the songs "Ain't Got Nobody", "Lonely Girl", "Da Vinci", "Go Away", "Cleopatra" and "Return to Ithaka", all of which deal with Cuomo's relationships with women. "Lonely Girl", written by Cuomo and Joshua Berman Alexander, features a power pop sound and "blend of heavy guitars mixed with a soft-singing Rivers Cuomo" and has been compared Weezer's earlier style on The Green Album. "Da Vinci", also co-written by Cuomo and Alexander, serves as the album's third single. Scott Heisel of Alternative Press compared the song, sonically, to "Pork and Beans", off The Red Album. He also described the song as "a love song of the purest order, directed toward a beautiful woman [...] or perhaps a soothing lullaby to a crying infant." The song also features a prominent whistling hook, which producer Ric Ocasek heavily criticized. The preceding single, "Cleopatra", was written solely by Cuomo. The song features the use of harmonica, acoustic guitar and a heavier sounding middle eight, which Chris Coplan at Consequence of Sound characterized as sounding like Weezer (1994). Cuomo took inspiration for the song from the Shakespeare tragedy, Antony and Cleopatra.

Tracks under "The Panopticon Artist" include "Back to the Shack", "I've Had It Up To Here" and "The Waste Land" all deal with Cuomo's relationships to others, particularly his fans. The album's first single, "Back to the Shack", lyrically deals with the wish to return "to [the band's] 1994 roots", with Rolling Stone describing it as a "nerdy, self-referential [...] guitar-heavy track". HitFix reviewer Dave Lewis found that the song serves as a thematic continuation of two previous Weezer songs: "In The Garage" from The Blue Album and "Memories" from Hurley. "I've Had It Up To Here" features Cuomo bringing "finest mock-operatic metal voice" and a "dexterous syncopation [...] providing a mid-point palate cleanser", and lyrically deals with his frustrations with "unappreciative masses". The bridge to the song was also noted for its "Queen-ly choral flourishes and skyscraping high notes."

The final group of songs, "Patriarchia", are "Eulogy for a Rock Band", "The British Are Coming", "Foolish Father" and "Anonymous", which deal with relationships with father figures, "with a new spin".  "Eulogy for a Rock Band", deals with the band's relation to "the great rock bands that came before [them] as they are retiring [...] We're kind of in that spot now." "The British Are Coming", written solely by Cuomo, features lyrical references to American Revolutionary War, acoustic guitars and an "old school Weezer" guitar solo.." The verses went through several lyrical changes, with Cuomo debating whether adding a personal angle to the song or purely writing from the point of view of the founding fathers. "Foolish Father" features "plea for paternal forgiveness that crests with a small choir singing" the album's title. The song was initially inspired by the Shakespeare tragedy, King Lear.

Entertainment Weekly reported that the album would feature an "ambitious three-part suite", which includes the song "My Mystery", which was later re-titled "Anonymous". The suite was later revealed to be titled "The Futurescope Trilogy", also featuring "The Waste Land" and "Return to Ithaka", which serves to "close out the album with a cacophony of guitars, percussion, and harmonies" that includes five concurrent guitar solos in "Return to Ithaka". Pitchfork writer Ian Cohen compared the ambitious trilogy to both the band's unfinished rock opera, Songs from the Black Hole and the band's 2008 single, "The Greatest Man That Ever Lived".

Promotion
Since March 19, 2014, the band began releasing a weekly video series, with twenty-four installments being included so far. Several clips featured the band working in the studio and also revealed several song titles for the then-unnamed album, including "Ain't Got Nobody" and "The Waste Land". The ninth installment of the series eventually revealed the title to the album, while the eleventh revealed the album cover by visual artist Christopher McMahon. The original release date of September 30 was announced through both the web series and Entertainment Weekly, along with a behind-the-scenes look into the recording sessions.

In February 2014, the band performed the first single from the album, titled "Back to the Shack", on the 2014 Weezer Cruise. The studio version of the song premiered on July 21 on the band's YouTube channel, and was released as a single the following day. On July 23, the band performed the live TV debut of the song on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.

On July 21, the band announced the album would be available for pre-order on PledgeMusic. The band also announced plans to perform the entire album, "front to back", in certain small venues. On September 8, the band debuted a second single from the album, "Cleopatra", while also releasing upcoming album art, along with more pre-order information. The full album was made available on iTunes Radio on September 30, 2014, as part of the First Play series. On November 18, a third single from the album was released, "Da Vinci". "Go Away", was released as a promotional single on July 24, 2015, along with a music video.

In late 2014, the band promoted the album by playing it live in its entirety, mainly in smaller venues that also included acoustic performances of songs from their back catalogue.

Critical reception

According to Metacritic, Everything Will Be Alright in the End has received an aggregated score of 77/100 based on 33 reviews, indicating "generally favorable reviews". Stephen Thomas Erlewine at AllMusic states "there's a sense that Weezer made another record of massive, hooky rock not only because that's what the fans want but because they know it's what they do best", citing songs like "The British Are Coming", "Ain't Got Nobody", "Cleopatra" and "Go Away". Scott Heisel of Alternative Press comments that it "might not be the best Weezer album, but most definitely is the perfect Weezer album, at least right now." Heisel points out risks on the album, such as 5/4 to 4/4 time signature shifts heard on "Cleopatra" that eventually feels "right at home". At Billboard, Jillian Mapes declares it the best Weezer album since Maladroit, stating "A handful of tracks strewn with cheesy metaphors shows the impersonality that mars Cuomo's post-Pinkerton songwriting, despite some redeeming musical qualities that reaffirm Weezer as a purveyor of feedback and fuzz."

Consequence of Sound writer Dan Caffrey notes that "Everything Will Be Alright in the End doesn't just transport us to Weezer's younger days — it ushers us into their future. And for the first time in a while, it's looking pretty bright." Mischa Pearlman at NME declares "It's no Pinkerton, but Weezer, finally, are back on track." Pearlman considers "Foolish Father", "Lonely Girl", "Go Away" and "The Futurescope Trilogy" suite to be great tracks. Caryn Ganz of Rolling Stone comments that "the spirit of reconciliation is strong on Everything Will Be Alright in the End." Ganz also notes "The tracks devoted to Weezer's bond with their listeners are the most tormented and theatrical". Sputnikmusic reviewer Adam Thomas describes it as a "return to form", explaining that "a whimsical soundscape of 90's fuzz and the cheesy late 70's arena rock guitar harmonies that made Weezer both so cool and horribly uncool at the start of their career." Rock Sounds David McLaughlin rated the album a 7/10, declaring it to give the band's first two albums a "good go". McLaughlin concluded with that the album "feels like a cohesive, artfully crafted whole."

The album appeared on several annual "best-of" lists in 2014. Rolling Stone named the album the fourteenth best of the year, praising the band for "rediscovering the art of the three-minute girl jam", while also expanding the group's sound. Robin Hilton called it "the record of the year", while Alternative Press labeled it the seventh essential album of the year. The album was included at number 41 on Rock Sounds "Top 50 Albums of the Year" list. The album was included at number 9 on Kerrang!s "The Top 50 Rock Albums Of 2014" list.

title: Charles Barraud

Charles Barraud (19 April 1897 – 29 January 1997) was a Swiss painter from the canton of Neuchâtel.

Biography
Barraud was born at La Chaux-de-Fonds, eldest of several brothers, the sons of an engraver of watch plates, at least four of whom became artists. Between 1910 and 1914 Charles followed an apprenticeship as an engraver while attending the art school of La Chaux-de-Fonds in the evenings, as did his brothers. When his father became ill in 1918 he worked with his brothers in the local workshops, then spent some time in Geneva with Albert Locca. In 1921 he was awarded a state scholarship in fine arts. In 1926 he opened a picture framing business and married his first wife, Jeanne Pellet (known as Janebé). Their daughter Marie-Louise (Malou) was born in 1930.

After some time spent in Tunisia in 1935 he obtained a second state grant in 1936 and in the following year visited Algeria. From 1940, when he moved to Areuse, he had several very productive years before moving to Cortaillod in 1946.

In 1951, he married his second wife, Paulette Kühni. In the same year he took part in a joint exhibition of works by the four Barraud brothers in Paris (repeated in 1961 at La Chaux-de-Fonds) and bought a house in Blauzac. After several exhibitions, including a retrospective at the Musée des beaux-arts of La Chaux-de-Fonds in 1958, he made another visit to Algeria in 1973 and to Tunisia in 1989. His last paintings date from 1995.

He died in hospital at Yverdon-les-Bains in 1997.

title: The Proton Energy Pills

text:
The Proton Energy Pills were an Australian punk rock band formed in the city of Wollongong, New South Wales in 1986. The band released two vinyl singles and a vinyl EP in its time and is considered a very seminal and influential group as its members went on to play in many successful Australian bands over the next 25 years.

History
Australian Musicologist, Ian McFarlane writes that "The Proton Energy Pills comprised Dave Curley (vocals), Lenny Curley (guitar), Jay Curley (bass), Stewy Leadfinger Cunningham (guitar) and Richie Lewis (drums). Proton Energy Pills derived their name from American cartoon series Roger Ramjet (the proton energy pills gave Ramjet his extraordinary strength). The band played a form of heavy retro-grunge that drew on US bands like Blue Öyster Cult, MC5 and Mudhoney for inspiration. Local bands that the Pills aspired to included Radio Birdman, The Celibate Rifles and The New Christs. Sydney independent label Waterfront issued two Proton Energy Pills singles, `Survival'/`Symmetry' (September 1989) and `(Less than I) Spend'/`Strawberry Patch' (March 1990), and the mini-album Proton Energy Pills(September 1990)."

The band formed whilst most of its members were at school in Wollongong and learnt how to play at parties covering their favourite songs by bands like The Ramones, The Stooges, Flamin Groovies and Radio Birdman. Their first gig took place on 15 August 1987 at the Wollongong Ironworkers Club and the band became known for their long hair and super distorted sounds. Later the band would start to play in Sydney more regularly and would take on Steve Pavlovic as their manager and sign with Waterfront Records and release two influential 7" singles. The Proton Energy Pills supported for Dinosaur Jr on NSW and Victorian legs their first Australian tour in 1989 and J Mascis produced the A-side of the Protons second single - a song called Less than I Spend. Both singles sold very well and made it to the top of the Sydney Independent Charts at the time. The band also scored the Australian tour support for US band Mudhoney in their first visit to Australia in early 1990. Proton Energy Pills also played with P.I.L., The Buzzcocks, Rollins Band and The Hoodoo Gurus and supported many of their local heroes including The Celibate Rifles, The Hitmen, Hard-ons and Lime Spiders.

The Protons disbanded in mid-1990 citing musical differences after the recording of a five-track 12" EP at Sydney's Electric Avenue Studios with Phil Punch and Kent Steedman from the Celibate Rifles producing.

Postscript

Following the split of the band, members of the Proton Energy Pills went on to play in many successful bands including Brother Brick, Zambian Goatherders, Tumbleweed, Leadfinger, Asteroid B-612 and Challenger-7, The Yes-Men, Richie & the Creeps, Brut 66 and The Pink Fits. Despite their limited output, the significance of the band would come to light in hindsight and they came to be considered a pre-grunge seminal act that paved the way for an 'unearthing' of underground rock in Australia in the 1990s. In their hometown of Wollongong, 'the Protons' (as they are known) played many all-ages gigs mostly due to the philosophy of frontman David Curley who in his role as youth social worker with Wollongong Council was very committed to engaging the region's youth in music and art. As a result, the band are revered for inspiring many young people to pick up instruments and form bands. In 2007, Spanish Label Bang! Records released a gatefold CD retrospective of the band's music including extensive liner notes on the band's history and impact. The band also featured on Tales From the Australian Underground retrospective which was released in 2006 on Feel Presents Record Label, the following quote on the significance of The Proton Energy Pills is taken from that release:

The Proton Energy Pills were an allegiance of brothers Jay, Lenny and Dave Curley and schoolyard friends Richard (Richie) Lewis and Stewart Cunningham. At the helm was Stewart, a whiz kid guitarist and gifted songwriter who, along with singer and eldest brother Dave, wrote nearly all the band's material including Less Than I Spend(Waterfront, March 1990) the band’s second single. Produced by J Mascis (the singer/guitarist for proto grunge group Dinosaur Jr) and featuring Bill Gibson (the one time backing vocalist for the Lime Spiders and The Eastern Dark), “Less Than I Spend” by The Proton Energy Pills is a terrific track. Arguably the last great 7” in a lineage of Australian rock’n’roll that had dated right back to Radio Birdman and their landmark November 1976 release Burn My Eye. Internal friction however meant that the band would only add a mini-album to their catalogue before Stewart decided to leave the band. Jay, Lenny and Richie would then go on to form and garner much success with Tumbleweed, while Stewart did his time with Brother Brick, The Yes Men and Asteroid B-612.

In March 2021, Wollongong based record label Music Farmers re-issued the studio recordings of The Proton Energy Pills on deluxe gatefold 12" vinyl LP. The record made an appearance on the ARIA vinyl sales chart at #11 on 22 March 2021.
