title: HMS Rattler (1783)

text:
HMS Rattler was a 16-gun sloop of the Royal Navy. Launched in March 1783, she saw service in the Leeward Islands and Nova Scotia before being paid off in 1792 and sold to whaling company Samuel Enderby & Sons. She made two voyages as a whaler and two as a slave ship before she was condemned in the Americas as unseaworthy in 1802. She returned to service though, sailing as a whaler in the northern whale fishery, sailing out of Leith. She continued whaling until ice crushed her in June 1830.

Construction
Rattler was one of six Echo-class sloops constructed in the early 1780s, principally for service in the imperial colonies. She was ordered in December 1781, to be constructed at Sandgate by shipwright Francis C. Willson, and launched on 22 March 1783.

Construction costs were £7,211, comprising £3,572 in builder's fees, £3,182 for fittings and £457 in dockyard expenses.

Rattler was built to the same technical drawings as the five other Echo-class ships, namely Brisk (1784),  (1783), Echo (1782), Nautilus (1784), and Scorpion (1785). The class was designed to be 16-gun ship sloops with quarterdecks and forecastles.

All the Echo-class used the same plans for frame, inboard profile, lines, stern, and upper and lower decks

Caribbean service
Rattler was commissioned in April 1783 for service in the British Leeward Islands under Commander Wilfred Collingwood, assisting in enforcement of Great Britain's Navigation Acts against American trading vessels. On arrival in the Caribbean, Rattler joined the British fleet under the command of Captain Horatio Nelson, and including  whose captain was Wilfred Collingwood's brother Cuthbert.

In 1787 she was laid up to remove her copper bottom and replace it with wooden sheathing, despite the weaker protection this offered against infestation by shipworm. While the ship was being refitted Commander Collingwood was taken ill and died on 21 April 1787 en route to a hospital at Grenada. Rattler returned to sea later in April under Lieutenant James Wallis. After six months service Rattler returned to Britain for further refit and repair and was paid off.

Rattler was recommissioned in October 1789 under Lieutenant William Hope. He sailed her for Nova Scotia on 26 March 1790. In June 1790 Commander Jeremiah Beale replaced Hope.

Disposal: Rattler was paid off in 1792. She was sold at Woolwich to Messrs. Enderby & Sons on 6 September 1792.

Mercantile service
Rattler underwent refitting in Perry's Blackwall Ship Yard. She first appeared in Lloyd's Register (LR), in the volume for 1792.

1st whaling voyage (1792–1794): Captain McCowen sailed from London on 12 November 1792.

She left Portsmouth on 4 January 1793, with Captain James Colnett, master, bound for waters off Peru. James Colnett had been a lieutenant in the Royal Navy, but on half-pay. He had experience in the North Pacific, which made him attractive to Enderby. He wanted to return to active service and the Admiralty suggested that if he did this voyage it would return him to active service and recommend him for promotion.

In its voyage, the only British vessel encountered was the sealer . Rattler sailed as far north as Cape St Lucas in Baja California. On the way she visited most of the western islands from Cape Horn north. The big discovery was the Galapagos Islands, which offered safe anchorages, and tortoises that represented fresh meat, and plentiful sperm whales. Colnett redoubled Cape Horn in August 1794, on her way back to England.

Rattler returned to England on 18 November 1794. Rattler returned with a poor cargo of only 48 tuns of sperm oil but with a detailed chart of the western side of South America and the Galapagos.

Enderby's sold Rattler and new owners sailed her as an enslaving ship.

1st slaving voyage (1795–1796): Captain Robert Bibby sailed from London on 27 April 1795. Rattler arrived at the Gold Coast on 3 July 1795. She embrked captives at Cape Coast Castle and Anomabu and left Africa on 9 April 1796. She arrived at Kingston on 18 June. There she landed 468 Captives. She arrived back at London on 16 October.

2nd whaling voyage (1798–1800): Captain Sinclair Halcrow acquired a letter of marque on 23 December 1797. He sailed from England in 1798. He returned to London on 24 June 1800.

2nd enslaving voyage (1800–1801): Captain Thomas Wilson acquired a letter of marque on 17 November 1800. He sailed from England on 25 December, bound for the Gold Coast. Rattler returned to Falmouth after having been chased on 1 February 1801 off Finisterre and having been forced to separate from her convoy and escort, .

Rattler arrived on the West Coast of Africa on 1 April 1801. She embarked captives slaves at Cape Coast Castle and Accra and delivered them to Demerara, where she arrived in October. She landed some 280-300 captives. Rattler, late Wilson master, sailed from Demerara for London but around the end of January 1802 had to put into Grenada leaky. There she unloaded her cargo.

Rattler was condemned at Grenada as unseaworthy. The Register of Shipping for 1802 carried the annotation "Condemned" by her name.

However, Rattler returned to service, becoming a whaler in the northern whale fishery, sailing out of Leith.

On 25 July 1804, Rattler, Wright, master, returned to Leith with a full ship, having taken 10 "fish" (whales) in the Davis Strait.

One source reported that Rattler, of Leith, Stoddart, master had been wrecked during what for Leith had been a disastrous year. She was wrecked, but not until 1830.

Fate
Rattler, Stodart (or Stoddard), master, was lost on 25 or 28 June 1830, crushed by ice.

This was the worst year in the history of British Arctic whaling. Leith alone lost two of its seven whalers, one vessel returned "clean", i.e., it had not caught anything, and the remaining four vessels had only four whales (50 tons of whale oil) between them.

title: Walter Reginald Hume

text:
Walter Reginald Hume (29 November 1873 – 21 July 1943) was an Australian inventor and industrialist known for inventing modern techniques of producing concrete and steel pipes.

Early life
Hume travelled around Victoria in his early years with his father who gave lectures as a professional phrenologist. Walter Hume was 12 years old when his father died and in the altered family circumstances, Hume had to leave school to find work. He tried his hand at several trades, including plasterering.

Invention and industry
During the depression of the 1890s, Hume and his elder brother, Ernest James Hume (ca.1869 – 18 January 1929), joined forces and worked in country Victoria in construction, repair and farming, from which they developed a workshop business at Malmsbury, Victoria making fencing droppers from hoop iron. The brothers received their first patent for this work.

The brothers moved to South Australia to establish a second factory, but soon after closed down the original Malmsbury business, diversifying towards ornamental steel fencing. In 1910, they established Humes' Patent Cement Iron Syndicate Ltd.as a means of commercialising and developing the centrifugal process for the manufacture of concrete pipes invented by Hume. This technology had a profound impact internationally in developing modern drainage and sewerage systems. On 7 November 1940, a significant contract was signed with the South Australian Government, for construction of the Morgan Whyalla pipeline, to the value of £505,627. Between 1921 and 1926 they ran  of reinforced concrete pipe for the Loveday Irrigation Project. The locomotive used to transport all materials has been restored and operates as an attraction at the Cobdogla Irrigation Museum.

William Dargie painted two portraits of Hume.

text:
The Pakistan national cricket team toured Sri Lanka in January 1976 and played six matches including two internationals against the Sri Lankan national cricket team. As Sri Lanka had not then achieved Test status, the internationals are classified as first-class matches. Both games were played at the Paikiasothy Saravanamuttu Stadium in Colombo. Pakistan were captained by Intikhab Alam and Sri Lanka by Anura Tennekoon. Sri Lanka won the first by 4 wickets and Pakistan won the second by 4 wickets

title: Harper Court

text:
Harper Court is a mixed-use commercial development in the Hyde Park community area on the South Side of Chicago, Illinois, United States, that includes a Hyatt Hotel and a 12-storey office tower that is leased and occupied by the University of Chicago. Although the hotel opened on September 17, 2013, the commercial structure, which also has extensive retail and parking space, officially opened on November 8, 2013. The University of Chicago exercised its option to purchase most of the development on November 13 and then put most of what it acquired up for sale in March 2014. The University provided much of the financing and retains a master lease over the retail tenants. The development was acquired by Clal Insurance Company in July 2014.

Details

Harper Court is located about  southeast of downtown Chicago and is bordered on the south by 53rd Street, which is the main commercial corridor of Hyde Park, and to the east by the Metra Electric District line. Developers for the project were Vermilion Development and JFJ Development, while equity was provided by Canyon-Johnson Urban Funds (a joint venture investment arm for Canyon Capital Realty Advisors and Earvin "Magic" Johnson). At the time of its development, the University of Chicago was also involved in developing several surrounding properties on the 53rd street corridor. As a result of the collaboration between the city and the University several new businesses had opened up around the Harper Court site, including Clarke's (a 24-hour diner), Harper Theater (a movie theatre), Akira (clothing store) and Five Guys. The street that bisects the development was changed from two-way to one-way on May 16, 2014.

In 2001, the city designated an  area on and around 53rd street as a tax increment financing (TIF) district due to the general underdevelopment and disrepair of properties on the corridor, making the properties eligible for tax incentives. Harper Court sits on a  site that the University purchased in 2008. The structure, which has a 131-room Hyatt Place brand Hyatt hotel and a 12-storey office tower, includes  of office space,  of retail space and a parking structure with over 500 parking spaces. The building was partially financed by $20 million in TIF funding subsidy as well as land writedowns that bring the total financing assistance to $23.5 million. The TIF funds will not be allocated by the city until Harper Court has been declared completed. The Hyatt hotel received a separate $5.2 million subsidy from the Chicago City Council.

Hyatt Place

The Hyatt Place hotel portion, which is officially named Hyatt Place Chicago–South/University Medical Centre and has its own underground parking structure, opened on September 17, 2013. The hotel was the first built in Hyde Park in 50 years. Smart Hotels owns the Hyatt portion of the development, which is not for sale.

University of Chicago involvement
The University of Chicago invested $30 million in the land acquisition and office space buildout in addition to providing a $21.5 million loan guarantee for construction of the new Hyatt Place hotel. The structure officially opened on November 8, 2013 and the University of Chicago exercised its option to purchase the office, parking and retail components as well as the rights to develop 425 residential units in the future for $98 million five days later.  The University, which put the property up for sale in March 2014, leases all of the office space to host 550 employees. The University employees that started moving into Harper Court on November 7, 2013 were from the Information Technology Services (ITS), Alumni Relations and Development, and  Facilities Services departments. The University's 20-year master lease includes the retail space. The University is not selling the residential development rights. On July 25, the city of Chicago approved the sale of the current structure (and not the phase 2 residential construction) to CLAL Insurance Company for $112 million.

title: Caleb W. Dorsey

text:
Caleb W. Dorsey (September 7, 1833 – April 21, 1896), or Colonel Caleb Dorsey, served in the Missouri State Guard and the Army of the Confederate States of America during the American Civil War. After the war he became a California State Assembly member between 1877 and 1878.

Civil War Service
Prior to the start of the war Dorsey was a resident of Pike County, Missouri and served as Sergeant Co. D, 2nd United States Cavalry from 1855-1861.

During the Civil War he served as Major in the 4th Cavalry Regiment of the Second Division of the Missouri State Guard. Given authority to recruit a regiment for the Missouri State Guard, he served as colonel of his own provisional unit.  This regiment was nearly destroyed at the Battle of Mount Zion Church in Dec. 1861. Dorsey was captured Feb. 15, 1862

Dorsey commanded a cavalry squadron in Confederate service in November 1862 in Arkansas, and after several engagements it disbanded sometime in 1863. Dorsey was in command of his "Missouri Squadron" at the battle of Fayetteville, Arkansas, on April 18, 1863. Dorsey was recruiting again in Northeast Missouri in advance of Sterling Price's Raid into Missouri in 1864. He was unable to join the raiders and eventually made his way to Arkansas with a much reduced command. These were merged into Slayback's battalion to form a regiment with Dorsey serving as Lt. Col.

Post-war and Death
After the war Dorsey migrated to California where he developed a large ranch in Stanislaus County, just outside of Oakdale, with his brothers. In addition to farming the land, they bred and raced thoroughbred horses. Dorsey also operated several mining claims, and was active in politics. From 1869 to 1873 he served on the Stanislaus County Board of Supervisors, and in 1877 and 1878 he served as a California State Assembly member for the 22nd Assembly.

Dorsey operated one of his mines, the Snell Mine near Columbia in Tuolumne County, with a partner, J. T. Newcomer. During a visit to the mine on April 21, 1896, the partners had an argument that resulted in Newcomer shooting, and killing, Dorsey. Newcomer was tried for murder and found guilty, but then found not guilty in a second trial.

The Caleb Dorsey cousins
Colonel Caleb Dorsey is sometimes confused with his cousin, Attorney Caleb Dorsey. Both Caleb Dorseys were born in Maryland, and both migrated to California. Attorney Caleb Dorsey arrived in California in 1850 and lived, and died, in Tuolumne County. Colonel Caleb Dorsey arrived in California in 1865 and resided in neighboring Stanislaus County, but like his cousin, also died in Tuolumne County. The Colonel earned his military title while serving in the Army of the Confederate States of America. Attorney Caleb Dorsey, already in California before the start of the American Civil War, did not participate in the conflict. Another possible point of confusion is Attorney Caleb Dorsey's son who was also named Caleb. His son, Caleb C. Dorsey, was born in Tuolumne County in 1868 and died there in 1910. Colonel Caleb Dorsey never married, and is not known to have had any children.

title: Abner Felipe

text:
Abner Felipe Souza de Almeida (born 30 May 1996), simply known as Abner, is a Brazilian professional footballer who plays as a left-back for Belgian club RWDM.

Club career

Coritiba
Born in Londrina, Paraná, Abner finished his formation with Coritiba, after joining the club in 2011 from PSTC. On 3 June 2012, he agreed to a three-year contract, his first professional link. On 18 September 2013, at the age of 17, he made his first team – and Série A – debut, coming on as a second-half substitute for Sergio Escudero in a 2–2 home draw against Goiás; it was his only appearance for the club.

In October 2013, shortly after making his professional debut, Abner suffered a serious knee injury, being sidelined for six months. Subsequently, the 40% of his rights belonging to Coxa were sold to a group of businessman, and were assigned to PSTC (which already had 40% of the player).

Real Madrid
On 23 July 2014, despite long standing interest from Italian giants Roma, Abner signed for Real Madrid and was assigned to the reserves in Segunda División B. He made his debut for Castilla on 8 August, replacing Javi Noblejas late into a 2–1 loss at Atlético Madrid B.

On 5 September 2014, after only one further match for the B-team, Abner again suffered the same knee injury from the previous year, being sidelined for the campaign. The following 10 July, now fully recovered, he was called up to the main squad by manager Rafa Benítez to feature in the pre-season tours in Australia and China; six days later, however, he was cut from the squad after suffering a setback from his injury.

Abner returned to the fields on 20 September 2015, playing 20 minutes in a 1–0 loss at Real Unión; three days later, he again suffered a serious knee injury during training, being again out for the season. After his third injury, he stated that he "considered leaving football", but Zinedine Zidane, at the time the Castilla manager, encouraged him to keep going.

In 2016–17, Abner managed to feature in 21 league matches without setbacks, as Castilla finished in a disappointing 11th position.

Loan to Estoril
On 20 August 2017, Abner was loaned to Primeira Liga side Estoril, for one year. He made his top tier debut on 10 September, starting in a 2–0 away defeat to Moreirense.

On 26 February 2018, after just ten league matches, Abner's loan was cancelled.

Coritiba return
On 3 April 2018, Abner returned to his first club Coritiba on loan from Real Madrid, until 30 June. On 20 July, he extended his link until the end of the year, but opted to leave on 8 December, after 19 league appearances.

Athletico Paranaense
On 8 March 2019, Abner was presented at Athletico Paranaense, after agreeing to a loan deal until the end of the year; he was initially assigned to the under-23 squad for the year's Campeonato Paranaense.

On January 2020, Abner was sent on loan to Campeonato Paulista club Água Santa.

Farense
On September 2020, Abner signed a three-year contract with Portuguese club Farense.

RWDM
On 30 June 2023, after his contract with Farense expired, Abner signed a one-year deal with RWDM in Belgium.

International career
Abner represented Brazil at under-17 level at the 2013 South American U-17 Championship and at the 2013 FIFA U-17 World Cup in the United Arab Emirates. At the latter tournament, he suffered the first of his three knee injuries in a match against Honduras.

title: Scott Barrett (rugby union)

text:
Scott Kevin Barrett (born 20 November 1993) is a New Zealand rugby union player who currently plays as a lock for the  in Super Rugby and Taranaki in the Mitre 10 Cup. Barrett was chosen as the Crusaders' Captain for the 2020 Super Rugby season.

Barrett was first selected for New Zealand's international team, the All Blacks, in 2016 and has played over 60 tests for New Zealand since his debut against Ireland.

Early life
Raised in a rugby household, where older brothers Beauden and Kane, as well as younger brother Jordie, also went on to become professional rugby players, Scott Barrett cut his teeth playing for Francis Douglas Memorial College in his native New Plymouth. Barrett's older brother Beauden and younger brother Jordie are his current All Black team-mates.

Playing career

Early career
Barrett was a member of the New Zealand Under 20 team which participated in the 2013 IRB Junior World Championship in France, where he made 3 appearances in total.

Barrett got his big break in June 2014 when he was named in a Crusaders side shorn of its international players who played a midweek match against the touring  national team. The result did not turn out as Barrett would have liked, however when the Super Rugby season resumed following the mid-year internationals he gained his first full cap for the Crusaders. Injuries to international second-row forwards Sam Whitelock and Luke Romano saw Barrett named on the replacements bench for the match against the  on 5 July 2014. He came on as a 74th minute replacement for Jimmy Tupou in a 21–13 win for his side.

2016–2017

Scott Barrett made his debut for the All Blacks squad against Ireland on 5 November 2016 in Chicago. Barrett came on as a substitute early in the second half for Jerome Kaino who had been selected to unusually start at lock following injury to Sam Whitelock and Brodie Retallick, as well as Luke Romano returning home due to family bereavement. Barrett scored his first international try during that match, with the try converted by his older brother Beauden. The match was a historic loss to Ireland, the final score 40–29.

Barrett earned a start the following week against Italy, coming off the bench again for victories against Ireland and France. Barrett was the only All Black to play in all four tests on the 2016 end-of-year tour, a milestone for him as he had never been capped prior to the tour.

Barrett had become a regular starter for the Crusaders by 2017, replacing Luke Romano as newly-appointed captain Sam Whitelock's locking partner, with Romano shifting to a regular bench spot for the 2017 season. Barrett missed the 3–12 loss against the touring British and Irish Lions for the Crusaders due to injury but recovered to start for them in all three of the knockout rounds of the 2017 season, being a part of the 2017 Super Rugby Final winning Crusaders side who beat the Lions 25-17 in Johannesburg on 5 August.
Barrett has not missed selection for New Zealand since his debut, and was selected for the 33-man squad for the Pasifika Challenge against Samoa and the British and Irish Lions test series in mid-2017 alongside brothers Beauden and Jordie.

Barrett carried a heavy workload for the All Blacks in 2017 and he came off the bench in all three tests against the British and Irish Lions in the 2017 drawn series, but unfortunately only played a total of 15 minutes during the series due to the dominant play of Whitelock and Retallick.

Barrett returned to action after missing the first Bledisloe Cup test and replaced blindside flanker Liam Squire off the bench in the second of the series. Barrett only touched the ball once in the whole test, but used it to set his older brother up for the winning try. Barrett had a world-class impact off the bench against South Africa on 19 September. He joined the side of the scrum at blindside flanker after Squire was concussed in the 27th minute, scoring his second test try in the 57–0 win. Barrett was subsequently chosen to start in round 4 and 5 of the 2017 Rugby Championship against Argentina and South Africa, playing well in both, staying on the field for the full 80 minutes against Argentina. Barrett started another two times that year, against Australia and against the Barbarians due to Retallick not playing rugby for the rest of 2017 due to personal reasons. Barrett went back to his regular role on the bench against France, a French XV and against Wales on the 2017 end-of-year tour, having made 14 appearances for the All Blacks after the season finished, including every single test but two.

2018
On 9 June 2018, in Brodie Retallick's continued absence, Scott Barrett joined Beauden and Jordie in the starting lineup in the first of three tests against France, becoming the first family to have 3 brothers in the starting lineup. Barrett played the full 80 minutes of the first test against France, with the All Blacks winning 52–11. Following good performances from all three Barrett brothers in the first test of the series, the trio started against France in the second test as well. Barrett played the full 80 minutes of the second test as well, with his younger brother Jordie winning Man of the Match as the All Blacks won 26–13.

On 23 June 2018, Barrett was the best performing All Black on the field, against France, in the third test of the series. Barrett finished off the Steinlager series by winning the award for Man of the Match, after an outstanding defensive performance, as the All Blacks won against France 49–14. He went the whole series without being subbed off, a rare feat for a player of his experience.

In the first two rounds of the 2018 Rugby Championship, Barrett was replaced as a starter, upon Retallick's much-anticipated return to international rugby. In the third test of the competition, Barrett was given the chance to start alongside Retallick, who was then injured again, in a 46–24 win over Argentina. Barrett then went on to start in all three remaining tests of the Championship, which included a shock 34-36 loss to South Africa's Springboks. The final test of the competition, also against South Africa, saw Barrett score his fourth try, in the dying minutes of the test. Late tries to Barrett and Ardie Savea, saw Barrett's Crusaders teammate, Richie Mo'unga, kick the winning conversion, ending the test with a narrow 32–30 win for New Zealand.

Barrett played in all four tests of New Zealand's end-of-season tour, finishing his year by starting in half of them.

2019

After a good 2019 Super Rugby season, Barrett returned from injury to the All Blacks prior to the 2019 Rugby World Cup. Barrett, who was short of match fitness, was immediately named to start in his first test for 2019, with Brodie Retallick's continued injury troubles enabling Barrett to keep his place as a regular starter among the All Blacks. In the test, against Australia, Barrett performed poorly in the first half. Barrett's performance ended after only 39 minutes, after he was controversially red-carded for a shoulder charge to the neck of Australian Captain, Michael Hooper. Barrett became only the fourth New Zealander in the history of international rugby to be sent off during a test, joining team mate Sonny Bill Williams, amongst others. New Zealand was losing by 12–13 when Barrett was sent off, finishing the match with their worst defeat in history, 26–47. Barrett was subsequently suspended from playing for three weeks. Barrett returned to play for a 92–0 win over Tonga, although Patrick Tuipulotu was picked over him as a starter.

On 28 August, All Blacks Head Coach, Steve Hansen named Barrett, as well as both of his brothers, amongst the 31 players in New Zealand's squad for the 2019 Rugby World Cup.

Barrett played in two tests during the World Cup's pool stages. A start against Canada saw the Barretts become the first trio of brothers to start for New Zealand in a World Cup match, and the first to all start in a World Cup match since Elisi Vunipola, Manu Vunipola, and Fe'ao Vunipola all played for Tonga in 1995. The Barrett brothers also became the first trio of brothers to all score a try in the same match, with Canada losing 63–0.

Although Barrett was benched for Brodie Retallick and Sam Whitelock for the quarter-final, against Ireland, he supplanted Sam Cane in the starting lineup for the semi-final, against England, confirming his place amongst New Zealand's best players. But with England fielding two openside flankers in their starting lineup, Barrett was subbed off at half-time in the semi-final, with New Zealand eventually losing 7-19. Coach, Steve Hansen went on to admit he made a mistake in starting three locks against England.

After New Zealand finished in third place at the Rugby World Cup, Barrett was named as the Crusaders' Captain for the 2020 Super Rugby season. Barrett was subsequently touted as a future All Black Captain.

title: Yvonne Audette

text:
Yvonne Audette  (born 22 April 1930) is an Australian abstract artist.

Life
Audette was born in Sydney in 1930 and after attending art classes whilst still attending the prestigious private school Ascham, she and her American-born parents were persuaded to have her trained as an artist as it was considered she showed 'promise'.  Audette benefited early from travel to the United States in 1948 and as an attractive young woman, she became somewhat of a spokeswoman for the American fashion she had seen on her visit. As early as 1949 it was noted her 'pet ambition was to become a painter'. She had enrolled at the Julian Ashton Art School but she became tired of the uninspiring teaching. The main teacher was Henry Gibbons who was nearing retirement. In 1951 his duties were taken over by John Passmore who was returning to Australia.

Passmore became the main teacher at this private school. One of his favourite students was Audette. She compared his return to the school as "like Moses" returning with the tablets of stone. He taught her to look at the subject of their paintings as not only a connection of rods, but also as a collection of facets and as a creation of basis mathematical shapes. The workaholic Passmore enthused about Cezanne and passed his, and the views of Cezanne on tone and structure onto Audette.

Audette, however, found Passmore a difficult person. He worked hard on his own work but it was kept in a separate room and his students were not allowed to see it.

Passmore would play the male students off against Audette playing psychological games. Audette was not part of the main artistic group. This was partly due to her well-to-do parents who supplied her with her own flat. Audette did some work as a model for the Australian photographers David Moore and Max Dupain.

In 1952, Audette moved to New York, then the heart of abstract expressionism which in turn became a strong underlying influence on how she styled her art for the future.  In New York she became acquainted with  Mark Rothko, Louise Nevelson, Willem de Kooning and Lee Krasner. Travelling to Europe in 1955 to see what was happening there, Audette created her own studio in Milan after a brief period in Florence. Here she observed a different type of expressionism: more subtle and softer. She travelled to the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, France, Spain, Greece and Germany before returning to her home city of Sydney in 1966, establishing a studio in Rose Bay. Her first exhibition was with Robert Klippel at the Bonython Gallery. When asked why she had returned from Europe she observed there was no simple answer 'but I can only say it was the call of the soil.' Her portrait of Klippel, entered and exhibited in the 1980 Archibald Prize has been gifted to the National Portrait Gallery. From 1969 she was working in Melbourne.

Mid and late career
Mid-career may have proven difficult for Audette, especially when the unnamed art critic of the Canberra Times wrote rather disparagingly of an exhibition at the Solander Gallery, Yarralumla in 1975. They described her landscape works as a departure from her usual abstract style, and as being 'sentimental' and "dewy and lovely" but felt they were dangerously close to "cheap illustrations and calendar art".

The following year the Canberra Times art critic, Geoffrey de Groen, described Audette's works as being 'playful, sensitive and enjoyable', and he found her work less decorative. The works exhibited had been painted between 1959 and 1968 and he was quite complimentary on her choice of hard board as a surface for her oil paint which she applied heavily and worked quite hard.

Audette's profile was raised by a major exhibition in 1999 in Queensland and the publication of a book about her life and works. The National Portrait Gallery has quoted a description of her as "Australia's greatest living abstract painter". In her own words, she said 'Art is a language' and 'painting is a way to commune with the essential mystery behind all things.'

Audette's "significant service to the arts as an abstract painter" was recognised by the awarding of an AM in the Queen's Birthday 2020 Honours List.

Her work, The long walk, was shown in Part Two of the exhibition, "Know my name: Australian women artists 1900 to now" at the National Gallery of Australia.

The vessel was classified as a corvette from 1877 until 1888, when it was converted into an accommodation ship at Skeppsholmen. She was taken out of service completely in 1919 and was sold to a Norwegian shipping company in Moss to be used as a floating residence for workers. In 1926, she was sold to a scrap dealer in Halmstad for scrapping.

The ship is named after Princess Eugenie, daughter of Oscar I of Sweden.

title: Theoktistos Bryennios

text:
Theoktistos Bryennios (, ) was a Greek nobleman and a Byzantine general who quelled a Slavic rebellion in the Peloponnese in 842.

Theoktistos Bryennios is the first known member of the aristocratic Bryennios family, which survived until the end of the Byzantine Empire and reached its apogee in the 11th–12th centuries, when it provided several senior military commanders and contended for the throne. He is known only from the 10th-century De administrando imperio of Emperor Constantine VII Porphyrogennetos (reigned 913–959), which records that at the beginning of the regency of Empress Theodora, i.e. in 842, the protospatharios Bryennios was appointed military governor (strategos) of the Peloponnese theme, and sent with a large army, comprising troops from all of Byzantium's western provinces, against a large-scale revolt of the local Slavs that had broken out in the last years of Theodora's husband, Emperor Theophilos (r. 829–842). This was the second large-scale Slavic uprising in a generation, the first having been the attack on Patras in the mid-9th century, the defeat of which was followed by the imposition of Byzantine rule over the semi-independent Slavic tribes, and the beginning of their gradual Hellenization.

Bryennios was successful in suppressing the revolt and subduing the Slavic tribes, except for two, the Ezeritai and the Melingoi. Bryennios forced them to withdraw from the lowlands of the Laconian plain to the mountains Taygetos and Parnon, and imposed on them the obligation to pay an annual tribute, of 300 gold solidi for the Ezeritai and 60 solidi for the Melingoi. The Melingoi and Ezeritai would once again rebel against Byzantine authority in 921/2, but were again suppressed by the strategos Krenites Arotras.

title: Henk Guth

text:
Henk Gerrit Guth (c. 1921 – 20 July 2003) was a Dutch artist who had a career in Australia, remembered for "Panorama Guth" (1975–2005), a cyclorama in Alice Springs, Northern Territory.

History
Guth was born in Arnhem, Netherlands, and studied at the Arnhem Academy of Art and Design from 1938 to 1942, then moved to Amsterdam to work as an artist. Guth became part of the Resistance during World War II and he used his skills as a draughtsman to remove the yellow stars from the identity papers of Dutch Jews. Guth was captured by the Gestapo and jailed for six months before being sent to a concentration camp in the north; most likely Westerbork transit camp. Guth escaped from the camp six months later and rejoined the Resistance. Guth was often unwilling to discuss this part of his life; including during lengthy oral history interviews that are available through the Northern Territory Archives Service.

In 1960, searching for broader horizons, Guth migrated to Australia and initially settled in Melbourne. For the next several years he worked as a house painter and teacher for students with disabilities while making travels throughout Victoria and holding exhibitions of his Dutch landscape work. On the verge of returning to Europe Guth travelled to Alice Springs where he fell in love with the surroundings and was particularly enchanted by Ormiston Gorge in the West MacDonnell Ranges. Very soon after Guth moved to Alice Springs he opened an art gallery showing his work, also specialising in works by Aboriginal artists. In 1971 he commenced the work for which he is best known, the "Panorama Guth", the format of which he took from a seascape Panorama Mesdag in The Hague, Holland. The panorama as completed was a realistic Central Australian outback scene painted on 33 pieces of canvas six metres high arrayed as a continuous circle of 20 metres in diameter, the centre of which was a raised viewing platform; the floor was covered with actual soil, stones and other material to reinforce the illusion. Much of the work was done by Fritz Pieters, a fellow artist from Holland. The work, at 65 Hartley Street, Alice Springs, was completed in 1975 and the building was officially opened that year by Prime Minister Gough Whitlam. This building, with its unusual castle-like appearance, became one of Alice Spring' most popular landmarks.

In April 2003, after the gallery almost went bankrupt, it was purchased by local businessmen Terry Leigh and Kevin King. Guth died in July 2003, a few months after the sale of the business, and is buried at Ormiston Gorge facing Mount Sonder. The gorge had been one of Guth's favourite places to paint and, in order to be buried there, the Northern Territory Government granted special permission.

On 30 October 2005 'Panorama Guth' was destroyed by fire for which the cause could not be found. Some other exhibits, (including paintings by Albert Namatjira and his family) and irreplaceable aboriginal artefacts, were saved.

65 Hartley Street was the temporary address of the Mental Health Association of Central Australia and from late 2014 has been the home of the Yubu Napa Art Gallery and Studio, where visitors to Alice Springs can view indigenous artworks and also have the opportunity to meet artists as they work on their artworks. The owners of Yubu Napa Art Gallery and Studio still have visitors coming in asking to see the Panorama.

Publications

title: Tina Cross

text:
Tina Marie Cross  (born 27 January 1959) is a New Zealand singer. She sang the winning entry in the 1979 Pacific Song Contest, and was the lead vocalist of synthpop band, Koo De Tah, whose single "Too Young for Promises" was a top ten hit in Australia in 1985.

Biography

1959–1974: Early days and TV
Cross is one of six siblings and grew up in Ōtara from the age of four, except for a three-year stint in Kaitaia. Of Māori descent, she affiliates to Te Aupōuri and Ngāti Porou. Cross' mother is of Maori-Croatian descent. While the family were in Northland, Tina and one of her siblings won a talent quest.

In 1974, her friend, Kim Hart, encouraged Cross to audition for the school's musical productions with their band, Chalkdust, and the pair sharing singing duties. In 1975, the group auditioned for television talent show Opportunity Knocks and while the band missed out, the producers saw enough in 16-year-old Cross to offer her a one-year contract where she learned her craft. Cross was soon presenting herself to a national audience via popular television shows such as Smile and Once More With Feeling.

In 1977 Cross spent some time as a dancer on the television show, Top of the World and also appeared on several episodes of Ready to Roll, where she sang the current popular hits of the day. In 1978 Cross won the rising star award at the Entertainer of the Year awards.

1979–1982: New Zealand music
In 1979, Cross released four singles, all of which made the top 50 of the New Zealand charts. Her fourth single, "Nothing But Dreams", was the New Zealand entry into the 1979 Pacific Song Contest, which it won. Cross released her debut studio album You Can Do It in 1979.

In 1980, Cross again represented New Zealand at the Pacific Song Contest, this time, a duet with Derek Metzger titled, "Once Again With You", taking out second place. Cross began working on a second studio album, a shift from disco to new wave ultimately failed and the album, Tina X, did not chart.

Cross maintained a high profile with numerous television appearances and in 1982 she relocated across the Tasman to Sydney, Australia and began singing on the cabaret circuit.

1983–1990: Koo De Tah

In 1984 she teamed up with composer-pianist Leon Berger and formed Koo De Tah. They had a hit with "Too Young for Promises" in 1985 which made it to 6 on the Australian charts, two further singles "Body Talk" and "Think of Me" were released and a self-titled album in 1986. The group disbanded in 1987.

Following Koo De Tah, Cross launched a corporate cabaret act and toured India and Asia before returning to Auckland in 1990.

1990–2005: Theatre
In 1992, Cross sang the vocals on the original theme song for the television soap opera Shortland Street, composed by Graham Bollard.

In 1995 she appeared in touring productions of The Rocky Horror Show and Cats. She was named Best Theatrical Performer in 1995.
Over the following decade, Cross played major roles including the stage musical drama adaption of Once Were Warriors, (Michael Jackson's) Sisterella, Chicago, Boogie Nights and Miss Saigon, and produced The World Goes Round.

2005–2011: The Lady Killers and Dancing with the Stars
In 2005 Cross co-founded the harmony group The Lady Killers with fellow vocalists Suzanne Lynch and Jackie Clarke.

In 2007, Cross's career and charity work was recognised when she was named as an Officer of the New Zealand Order of Merit in the 2007 Queen's Birthday Honours, for services to the music industry. In 2008, Cross was a contestant in the 2008 New Zealand series of Dancing with the Stars, placing fifth overall. The Lady Killers released an album, Black is Back, in 2009.

2012–present: return to music
In 2012, Cross worked with Australian DJ and music producer StereoLove. Together, they released three singles including a cover of "Too Young for Promises" by Koo De Tah. Cross recommenced writing and in June 2014, Cross released the single "Walk Away", which written to raise funds and awareness for Women's Refuge. Cross released her third studio album Lay Down Your Heart in October 2014.

In October 2014, she was presented with the Benny Award from the Variety Artists Club of New Zealand Inc, the highest honour available for a New Zealand variety entertainer.

In November 2017, Cross released "Another Little One", a song Cross wrote inspired by toddler Moko Tangitoheriri's brutal death. The single was released as the centrepiece of Shine's annual Christmas campaign in 2017, asking that no more children be lost to violence or suffer abuse.

title: Eubule Thelwall (landowner)

text:
Eubule Thelwall (1622 – 4 February 1694) was a landowner and solicitor who held legal offices in North Wales and Cheshire, and the third son of John Thelwall of Bathafarn Park, Ruthin. In 1646 he served in the siege of Denbigh Castle and was sent by William Salesbury, the castle's governor, to Charles I to seek his permission to surrender. Thelwall married Marry Parry, the heiress of Nantclwyd estate in 1653 and instigated a complete rebuild of the building and of a second, smaller building in the nearby town of Ruthin: Nantclwyd y Dre, which is Wales's oldest dated timbered town house.

Sir Eubule Thelwall (c. 1557 – 8 October 1630), Principal of Jesus College, Oxford was his great-uncle.

Career
Thelwall entered Gray's Inn in 1635 and appears to have worked in the law and lived mainly in London; much of his property was destroyed by the Great Fire of London of 1666 and by 1662 he was back in the Vale of Clwyd. Deeds of the Nantclwyd Estate shows that he bought land to add to this estate in the 1660s.

He was stewart to the lordship of Ruthin until 1677 and in 1670 became chief steward of the manors and land of the Bishop of St Asaph in Flintshire and Denbighshire, and Vice-Chamberlain of the Palatinate of Chester.

His will mentions that he gave up his legal practice because of deafness.

Nantclwyd Estate
Thelwall built the earliest surviving parts of Nantclwyd Hall and extended the estate. He also added greatly to Nantclwyd y Dre giving the front of the house much of its present appearance including the projecting North-East range and the rear parlour range. He lived at this house from around 1688 when his son (also named Eubule) took over the main Nantclwyd estate. When the son died in 1713 the male line of the Thelwalls of Nantclwyd ended and the main estate at Llanelidan passed on to his daughter Martha and Nantclwyd y Dre to his youngest daughter Mary.

Memorial
A monument was erected in his memory by his devoted widow which lists his eleven children, of whom six died before him. Eubule junior succeeded him in 1695 and became High Sheriff of Denbighshire in 1702; like his father, he was a sober and devout man.

The family
The family had come to Ruthin from the Thelwall area of Cheshire. Most were lawyers and spoke Welsh; indeed it is known that many employed a family poet as was traditionally for wealthy families in Wales. For example, the poet Simwnt Fychan was employed by Simon Thelwall the judge at Plas y Ward.

title: 1934 (novel)

text:
1934 is a novel by Italian author Alberto Moravia, first published in 1982. It is a political tale about an Italian anti-Fascist and the encounter he has with a German girl.

Synopsis
The story takes place in 1934 on a boat ride to Capri. It details the relationship between an Italian anti-Fascist—Lucio—and a scared, suicidal German girl. It addresses large philosophical questions like the meaning of life, and love and death, through the author's art.

Acclaim for the book
 According to New York Review of Books, Stephen Spender, the book is "one of the most brilliant strokes in this novel about relations in the Thirties between Italians and Germans is that Moravia never reveals whether his Italian narrator and hero is serious or not, and doubt about the seriousness lies in his being Italian. ... This is the truth of the book: that within the external situation of the Italian Fascist--German Nazi relationship it is impossible to accept as authentic virtually anything people do."
 "In his seventy-fifth year, the novelist here confronts the experience of the Italians who were not Fascists, trapped in the current of their historical moment. This is a timely novel, then, for it is in the tradition of retrospective dissection of the Fascist experience that has been so evident in the past decade, both in literature and in the Italian and German cinema." e-Notes.

title: John Pundari

text:
Sir John Pundari  (born 7 January 1967) is a Papua New Guinean politician. He has been Speaker of the National Parliament (1997–1999), Deputy Prime Minister (1999), Minister for Foreign Affairs (2001), and currently serving as the Minister of Finance and Rural Development since 20 December 2020.

First elected to Parliament in the 1992 general election, as MP for Kompiam-Ambum, he was elected Speaker after retaining his seat in the 1997 election. He founded the Advance Papua New Guinea Party in May 1999, with twenty-two MPs, announcing his intention to challenge for the premiership. He accused Prime Minister Bill Skate's government of persistent political interference in administrative processes, including police investigations, and of a general lack of ethics. Pundari resigned as Speaker in July, and helped Mekere Morauta form a majority in Parliament to successfully challenge for the premiership. Morauta, as the new Prime Minister, appointed him  Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Women, Youth and Churches. In December, however, Morauta sacked him, citing the need for "political stability" in the coalition government. Pundari and his party were re-admitted to the Morauta government in April 2000, and he was appointed Minister for Lands and Physical Planning, then Minister for Foreign Affairs in May 2001. In October, he was sacked again, after disagreeing publicly with Morauta on the question of Papua New Guinea's participation in the Australian government's "Pacific Solution". Australia had begun deporting to a detention camp in Papua New Guinea asylum seekers who had arrived by boat in Australia; Pundari opposed the sending of 1,000 additional detainees to the camp.

He founded the Papua New Guinea Revival Party and led it into the 2002 election. He retained his seat in the 2007 election, this time as a member of the National Advance Party, and was appointed Minister for Mining by Prime Minister Michael Somare in July 2010. Somare was replaced as Prime Minister by Peter O'Neill in August 2011, and Pundari lost his position in government. Becoming a member of O'Neill's People's National Congress Party, he was appointed Minister for the Environment and Conservation in O'Neill's government following the 2012 general election.

Pundari is an active member and leader of the Seventh-day Adventist Church in Papua New Guinea.

The Honorable John Pundari, was recognized as a Companion of the Order of St Michael for his services to his country as a Member of the National Parliament, by Queen Elizabeth II on her birthday in 2014.

In 2022, Pundari founded the Liberal Party to compete in the 2022 Papua New Guinean general election.

title: George D'Oyly

text:
George D'Oyly  (1778–1846) was an English cleric and academic, theologian and biographer.

Life
The fourth son of Matthias D'Oyly, archdeacon of Lewes and rector of Buxted, Sussex, he was born 31 October 1778; of his brothers the eldest was Thomas D'Oyly, serjeant-at-law; the second, Sir John D'Oyly; the third, Sir Francis D'Oyly, killed at Waterloo; and the youngest, Major-general Henry D'Oyly. He went to schools at Dorking, Putney, and Kensington, and in 1796 he entered Corpus Christi College, Cambridge. In 1800 he graduated BA as second wrangler and second Smith's prizeman, and in 1801 gained the member's prize for the Latin essay. In the same year he was elected a Fellow of his college.

Ordained deacon in 1802 by John Buckner, the Bishop of Chichester, and priest in 1803 by George Huntingford, the Bishop of Gloucester, D'Oyly was curate to his father for a few months in 1803, and in 1804 became curate of Wrotham in Kent. From 1806 to 1809 he was moderator in the university of Cambridge, was select preacher in 1809, 1810, and 1811, and proctor in 1808.

In 1813 he was appointed domestic chaplain to Charles Manners-Sutton, the Archbishop of Canterbury. In 1815 he was presented to the vicarage of Hernhill in Kent, but before he came into residence he was appointed, on the death of his father, rector of Buxted. In 1820 he accepted the rectories of Lambeth, Surrey, and of Sundridge, Kent, and held them for the rest of his life. In 1815 he was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society.

D'Oyly died on 8 January 1846, and was buried in Lambeth Church, where a monument was erected to his memory. He was known in his day as a theologian; he also, as rector of Lambeth, added thirteen places of worship to the parish. He was treasurer to the Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge, a member of the London committee of the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel, and one of the main promoters of the establishment of King's College London.

Works
In November 1811, by then BD, D'Oyly was appointed Hulsean Christian advocate, and in that capacity attacked Sir William Drummond's theistic work Œdipus Judaicus in Letters to Sir William Drummond and Remarks on Sir William Drummond's Œdipus Judaicus (1813). During his time at Cambridge he was a contributor to the Quarterly Review (some of his articles are mentioned in the memoir by his son prefixed to an edition of D'Oyly's sermons).

D'Oyly also published:

 Two Discourses preached before the University of Cambridge on the Doctrine of a Particular Providence and Modern Unitarianism (1812);
 an annotated bible, prepared with Richard Mant for the Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge ("D'Oyly and Mant's Bible") (1st edition, 1814, &c.; 2nd edition, 1817; 3rd edition, 1818);
 Life of Archbishop Sancroft, 2 vols. 1821;
 Sermons, chiefly doctrinal, with notes, 1827.

His sermons delivered at St. Mary's, Lambeth, were published in 1847 in two volumes, with a memoir by his son, C. J. D'Oyly. Some of his sermons and letters on ecclesiastical subjects were published separately. His letter against the secular system of education of London University addressed to Sir Robert Peel, and signed "Christianus", was recognised in a resolution of the council of King's College, London (13 February 1846) as "giving the first impulse and direction to public opinion", making D'Oyly "virtually the founder of the college".

Family
D'Oyly married Maria Frances, daughter of William Bruere, formerly one of the principal secretaries to the government of India.

title: Vice News

text:
Vice News (stylized as VICE News) is Vice Media's alternative current affairs channel, producing daily documentary essays and video through its website and YouTube channel. It promotes itself on its coverage of "under-reported stories". Vice News was created in December 2013 and is based in New York City, though it has bureaus worldwide.

History
Before Vice News was founded, Vice published news documentaries and news reports from around the world through its YouTube channel alongside other programs. Vice had reported on events such as crime in Venezuela, the Israeli–Palestinian conflict, protests in Turkey, the North Korean and Iranian regimes, and the Syrian Civil War through their own YouTube channel and website. After the creation of Vice News as a separate division, its reporting greatly increased with worldwide coverage starting immediately with videos published on YouTube and articles on its website daily.

In December 2013, Vice Media expanded its international news division into an independent division dedicated exclusively to news and created Vice News. Vice Media put $50million into its news division, setting up 34 bureaus worldwide and drawing praise for its in-depth coverage of international news. Vice News has primarily targeted a younger audience comprised predominantly of millennials, the same audience to which its parent company appeals.

In November 2014, Vice News launched its French-language version.

In October 2015, Vice hired Josh Tyrangiel to run a daily Vice News show for HBO. Tyrangiel had recently left Bloomberg Businessweek, where he was reported to be "a divisive figure who was both admired and despised during his six years there." Tyrangiel named Ryan McCarthy, formerly an assistant editor of The New York Times, as editor-in-chief of Vice News.

In May 2016, it was announced that Tyrangiel had been promoted to oversee all of Vice News. As the announcement was made, Tyrangiel promptly laid off some 20 editorial and production staff members. In an interview given the previous week, Vice Media founder Shane Smith called Tyrangiel "a murderer," foretelling a "bloodbath" in digital media. That June, Tyrangiel touted various new hires he had brought aboard as part of his team.

In December 2016, it was announced that Vice News had entered into a partnership with The Guardian newspaper that will include Guardian journalists working at Vice's offices in East London and contributing to the two HBO television programs currently on the air. It will also include allowing The Guardian access to Vice's video production skills with content distributed to its millennial-skewed global audience.

On May 15, 2023, Vice Media formally filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy, as part of a possible sale to a consortium of lenders including Fortress Investment Group, which will, alongside Soros Fund Management and Monroe Capital, invest $225million as a credit bid for nearly all of its assets.

Reporters
Vice News had more than 100 members of its reporting and editorial staff in 35 bureaus around the world including New York City, Toronto, London, Berlin, Mexico City, São Paulo, Los Angeles, Istanbul, Moscow, Beijing, and Kabul. On April 21, 2014, while covering the Russo-Ukrainian War, Vice News reporter Simon Ostrovsky was kidnapped by pro-Russian separatist forces and held for three days before being released in Sloviansk.

Programming and content
Since its creation, Vice News has covered emerging events and widespread issues around the world. Every day it publishes a daily news capsule called "News Beyond the Headlines" where it briefly covers four daily stories which did not receive much coverage by other mainstream news outlets but it still considers important. It also publishes daily articles on its website on a variety of world current events, along with maintaining a Vice News Wire where it displays wire reports from around the world.

It has several prominent past and ongoing documentary series including: Russian military intervention in Ukraine; civil war in Iraq; the Israeli–Palestinian conflict; the Western Sahara conflict; the struggles of Afghan interpreters working for the US military in acquiring visas; the prison crisis in the US at Salinas Valley State Prison; protests against the FIFA World Cup in Brazil; Venezuelan anti-government protests; expansion of the Islamic State; protests in Ferguson, Missouri; the Syrian Civil War; the militarization of America's police forces and Central American refugees fleeing street gangs borne in American prisons to cross the American border; global warming and the evidence of the melting of Antarctica's glaciers; and the build-up of military forces of Russia with Scandinavians assisted by the American military.

Reception
, the Vice News YouTube page has 8.69million subscribers and over 3billion views in total. In August 2014, Vice News was described by The Guardian as one of the fastest growing channels on YouTube.

Lara Pendergast, deputy online editor at the UK magazine The Spectator, argues that Vice News gets its strength and popularity by getting younger audiences to become more and more interested about international news in a way that traditional media has not. "Its videos may fail every rule in the BBC impartiality book, but they are brilliantly edited and, often, utterly compelling. Vice News has found young, fearless foreign correspondents to serve a youthful audience who are bored stiff by traditional outlets but are quite prepared to watch videos on their mobile phones."

"Vice's brand image marketing as an edgy, hip outlet have helped drive its popularity with young people", says media critic Charles Johnson. "Mainstream media is not trusted by a lot of people, and rightly so, so they [Vice] step in and fill in", he says. "People see a sense of fun behind it. Jon Stewart is very popular, but he's an entertainer. Vice is something similar."

Rick Edmonds, media and business analyst at the Poynter Institute, critiques Vice News' reporting as "raw and tasteless sometimes" and more akin to personal essays than balanced journalism. Other critiques mention that its work is more affiliated with entertainment than hard-hitting news.

In a 2013 opinion piece for U.S. News & World Report, editor of the New York-based Foreign Policy Association Robert Nolan, stated that Vice's North Korea reporting was "more Jackass TV series than journalism".

Awards
Vice News has won four Peabody Awards for its documentary programs, The Islamic State and Last Chance High in 2015, Charlottesville: Race and Terror in 2017, and Losing Ground in 2020. In 2020, Emily Green of Vice News jointly won the first Pulitzer Prize for Audio Reporting with This American Life and Molly O'Toole of the Los Angeles Times for their collaboration on "The Out Crowd", an investigative podcast episode on the effects of the Remain in Mexico policy.

In 2021, Vice News won the Rory Peck Award for "Uyghurs Who Fled China Now Face Repression in Pakistan", the Lorenzo Natali Media Prize for "Rohingya Brides Thought They Were Fleeing Violence. Then They Met Their Grooms.", the Online Journalism Award for "The Story of...", and two Edward R. Murrow Awards for "Say Her Name: Investigating the Death of Breonna Taylor" and "Life Under Bombs: On the Frontlines of Fighting in Azerbaijan". In 2022, Vice News won the Alfred I. duPont–Columbia University Award for "The Shockwave".

From 2018 to 2021, Vice News received more News & Documentary Emmy Award nominations each year than any other organization. In 2021, Vice News received 23 nominations for News & Documentary Emmy Awards, winning four.
