title: The World That Never Was

text:
The World That Never Was: A True Story of Dreamers, Schemers, Anarchists, and Secret Agents is a 2010 book by Alex Butterworth about anarchism in the late 19th and early 20th centuries in Europe and the United States.

Overview
The book begins with the story of the exposure of Yevno Azef, a leading member of Russia's Socialist Revolutionary Party, as an agent of the Okhrana in 1908. Butterworth then moves on to the events preceding the Paris Commune of 1871, including biographical sketches of the French anarchist and geographer Élisée Reclus and the German spy Wilhelm Stieber; and the Commune itself, with an account centring on the experience of Louise Michel, an anarchist and school teacher. The following chapters focus on the activities of the Russian anarchist and geographer Peter Kropotkin, the French radical Victor Henri Rochefort, Marquis de Rochefort-Luçay, the Russian revolutionary Nikolai Tchaikovsky and the Russian spy Pyotr Rachkovsky in the 1870s.

Butterworth's focus then moves to London, focusing in particular on the artist and writer William Morris; and to Chicago and the events leading up to the Haymarket affair of 1886 including Johann Most's lecture tour (which began in 1883). The chapters that follow focus on the activities of London's Metropolitan Police Service and its Special Branch (including around Bloody Sunday), Rachkovsky's work in Paris in the late 1880s, William Melville's pursuit of anarchists in London, and the change in public perception of anarchism and anarchists concurrent with the emergence of propaganda of the deed and Leon Czolgosz's assassination of U.S. President William McKinley. The final chapters deal with the deaths of Michel and Reclus, the Russian revolutions of 1905 and 1917, and Kropotkin's death in 1921.

Critical reception
Mike Rapport of BBC History praised Butterworth's sympathetic treatment of his subjects and described the book as "intriguing, provocative and written with a novelist’s eye for detail ... an engrossing journey". In The Guardian, anarchist writer Stuart Christie noted the relevance of the book's themes to contemporary tactics in policing and the Metropolitan Police Service's reluctance to make public files from the 1890s. Francis Wheen, writing in the Financial Times, wrote that the book was "exhilarating" and questioned whether "the world that never was – one ignoring borders, and divisions of class and religion – [might] resemble the world as it might one day be"; while Peter Preston of The Observer described Butterworth's story as one "full of bathos as well as bombs, of a naivety that fomented revolution but never controlled what happened next" and also noted its relevance to 21st-century terrorism.

Wendy Smith in the Los Angeles Times praised "Butterworth's deeply knowledgeable, exceedingly well-written text" for its awareness of anarchism's shortcomings, and The Washington Post'''s John Smolens described The World That Never Was as a "thorough, compelling examination" capable of portraying "anarchism as the product of an inexorable human impulse" and questioning whether anarchist ideas may persist in the present. Mark Mazower of Bookforum commended the book for showing the significance of the period between 1870 and 1914 in shaping the leftism, activism and terrorism, and political repression, and wrote that it was "none the worse for" being "very much a tale of anarchism for own times".

In the New Statesman, philosopher John N. Gray described the book as "one of the most absorbing depictions of the dark underside of radical politics in many years" but questioned its lack of extended analysis. Richard Alexander of Lobster assessed The World That Never Was as "a highly readable and
entertaining (and occasionally thoughtful) text" and recommended it as an introduction to the activities of the revolutionaries and anti-revolutionaries of the period. David Peers, in the anarchist newspaper Freedom, recommended the "racily and colourfully written" book while pointing outs its omission of anarcho-syndicalism and anarchism in Ukraine and Mexico.

Socialist feminist writer Sheila Rowbotham, writing in The Independent, wrote that "The World That Never Was conveys the labyrinthine coils of conspirators and spies with graphic panache" but noted Butterworth's failure to convey his characters' ideals and motives, and his imprecise referencing style. Leo McKinstry of the Daily Express praised the book's scope and its "rich cast of characters" but argued it was let down by Butterworth's style and his sympathy for his subjects. Writing for The A.V. Club, Samantha Nelson gave the book a rating of "B−", explaining that "Butterworth's fascination with the era is a mixed blessing"; while Clif Garboden of the Boston Phoenix questioned the book's style and presentation but described it as "interesting, important, impressively (too) thorough, fair, and eye-opening". In the International Socialist Review, Eric Kerl wrote "The World That Never Was'' brilliantly contextualizes the political radicalism of the time", but criticised Butterworth's ambivalence towards Marxism and Leninism and lack of an analysis of revolutionary strategy.

text:
The whistling lizard or Sri Lanka agama (Calotes liolepis) is a species of lizard in the family Agamidae. It is one of seven Calotes species endemic to Sri Lanka.

Distribution
Restricted to submontane forests below 100m, and found in forested areas and plantations. Widely distributed, but apparently patchily distributed, in the central hills of Sri Lanka, including Knuckles, Kotmale, Sinharaja, Talawakele, Hanguranketha, Kanneliya, Galle, Kandy, Dambulla, Peradeniya, Namunukula, and Gampola.

Description
Head long. Tail long. A series of spines on nape make up the dorso-nuchal crest in males. Enlarged scales on dorsum of the body. Midbody scale rows 33–39. Ventral scales as large as those on flanks. Forehead pale brown, with pale inter-orbital bands. Dorsum pale gray with dark gray bands, numbering four on the body. Limbs and tail similarly dark-banded.

Ecology
Unusual among agamid lizards is its habit of uttering a high-pitched whistle when alarmed. It feeds on insects and ants. Gravid females are seen between July–August.

title: On the Side of the Road

text:
On the Side of the Road is a 2013 Israeli documentary film written and directed by Lia Tarachansky. The film  focuses on Israeli collective denial of the events of 1948 that led to the country's Independence and the Palestinian refugee problem. It follows war veterans Tikva Honig-Parnass and Amnon Noiman as they tackle their denial of their actions in the war. The film also tells the story of the director, Lia Tarachansky, an Israeli who grew up in a settlement in the West Bank but as an adult began to realize the problems of the Israeli Occupation for the Palestinians. The film was shot over the course of five years and premiered at the First International Independent Film Festival in Tel Aviv.

Synopsis
Lia Tarachansky grew up in a settlement. When the Second Intifada broke out in 2000 her family moved to Canada. There, for the first time she met Palestinians and "discovered" their history and learned why they were fighting Israel in the first place.

When she became a journalist, she returned to Israel to become the local correspondent for The Real News network. Returning for the first time to her settlement, she "discovers" the Palestinians next door as she travels the West Bank covering the Israeli military occupation. In this film she meets with those who played a personal role in the events of 1948 and like her, "discovered" that which they had not only erased from their consciousness, but erased from the map. For years she tries to convince veterans of the 1948 war who started the conflict as we know it today to face the most difficult questions and dig deep into their memories. This is a film about the questions Israelis cannot ask, about memories that cannot be uncovered, and the history which is fighting to come to light.

It was then, in 1948, three years after the Holocaust that the nascent Jewish state was created on Palestinian land. The war that followed after Arab armies started to invade Israel led to two-thirds of the Palestinian people becoming refugees. Those who fled or were expelled to this day remain in camps throughout the Arab world, the West Bank and Gaza. In 2009 the Israeli government proposed a law that forbade mourning this history—a law that attempted to criminalize history itself.

Featuring
Lia Tarachansky, an Israeli former settler
Eitan Bronstein, Director of the Israeli organization Zochrot
Khalil Abu Hamdeh, a Palestinian descendant of 1948 refugees
Amnon Noiman, an Israeli veteran of the 1948 war
Tikva Honig-Parnass, an Israeli veteran of the 1948 war

Production
The film was shot over a period of five years. It was originally titled "Seven Deadly Myths" and was conceived as a journalistic film featuring the New Historians. Following a personal transformation, director Tarachansky decided to focus the film on the personal stories of Israeli veterans and as a result the film changed in content and title.

Release
On the Side of the Road premiered at the First International Festival on Nakba and Return, which took place at Cinematheque Tel Aviv. The film premiered in the West Bank city of Ramallah in March, at the Franco-German Cultural Center in March 2014.  The film was later featured at the Eye on Palestine film festival in Ghent, Belgium and at the Nakba Film Festival in Australia.

Awards
In June 2014 the film received Honorable Mention at the International Independent Film Awards in California.

Taboo
According to the film's director, the mass displacement of Palestinians in 1948 remains a taboo in Israeli society. In an interview with Frank Barat she said "The strongest element of Israeli DNA is knowing what questions you cannot ask". Controversy arose at the festival at which On the Side of the Road premiered when Israeli Parliamentarian Ayelet Shaked argued that state subsidy of cultural events referring to the events of 1948 as the "Nakba" is in violation of the 2011 Nakba Law.

title: The Lovelock Version

text:
The Lovelock Version is a long historical novel by New Zealand writer Maurice Shadbolt that calls into question the interpretation of the past through the narrative process. Published in Auckland and London in 1980 and in New York in 1981, it won the New Zealand Book Award for Fiction and the James Wattie Award.

Magic realism and history
Maurice Shadbolt's novel appeared mid-way through his career and marked a new departure. Until then his fiction had engaged with contemporary New Zealand, although with backward glances as part of the interaction between generations. The Lovelock Version is the first to deal directly with the pioneer years of the 19th century and their aftermath. The Gallipoli Campaign episode, in which sons of his main characters are engaged towards the end of the novel, is later taken up in his play Once on Chunuk Bair (1982). Though the accounts in this later section of Hillary Lovelock's attempted hippy commune on the Porangi River and of Frank Lovelock's withdrawal there to escape police pursuit hark back to Shadbolt's earlier fiction, the Maori Wars episodes near the start of The Lovelock Version were to become the subject of his later trilogy, Season of the Jew (1986), Monday's Warriors (1990) and The House of Strife (1993).

Shadbolt commented on this side of his work that he tried to use native history, tradition, landscape and folklore as active components. In so doing he takes his work out of the sphere of pure historical fiction into the world of Magic realism in a novel indebted in part to Gabriel Marquez's One Hundred Years of Solitude, especially in its sweep over several generations. The novel is no simple glorification of the colonial enterprise but at times becomes a criticism which reflects the author's Left Wing politics.

Historical and geographical setting
The main focus of the novel is on the three Lovelock brothers and their dependents. It begins in South Island, where the Lovelocks have arrived in the 1860s to prospect for gold, but soon moves to North Island, where the brothers settle on the Porangi River to mine coal, fell timber and attempt iron founding. Although the river is fictitious, it is vividly imagined and a clue is given that it is based on the Mokau River, which is 'nearby and has a not dissimilar history'. This appears as one of several literary tricks that Shadbolt plays at the beginning, seemingly quoting from the 'revised' version of The Shell Guide to New Zealand, which Shadbolt had authored earlier (although there is no 1979 revision, as claimed). Also figuring there is a description of the town of Lovelock Junction, where the family settles. They are originally from Devon and so distinct from the family of Jack Lovelock, the best known New Zealander bearing the name, whose father was himself a miner who immigrated from Gloucestershire to South Island at a later date.

The novel is divided into four sections, the first three of which cover roughly the decades  1860-70 and the next two. The final section is more episodic, covering incidents that involve later family members during the 20th century. The three brothers approach the colonial enterprise with different aspirations. Herman is a Utopian largely insulated from reality; Richard is a compromising capitalist ever watchful for the main chance; James is an idealistic agriculturalist bounded by narrow horizons. It is their womenfolk who are more grounded in reality and interested in relationships, although the persona adopted by the author gives their concerns little sympathy and sees their significance as mainly limited to sexual partnership. Others have observed ‘the predominant focus on male characters in Shadbolt’s fiction’ as a limitation.

The title of the novel seems to be explained by a prefatorial “Author’s Note”, which thanks 'Phillipa Goodyear, of the New Zealand College for Psychic Studies, for her most material help in locating the original Lovelocks’. It suggests that it is they who are his informants, speaking from beyond the grave, setting their story against a spoof piece of scholarship, The Lives of Lovelock Junction, supposedly written by Shadbolt himself. This text is frequently quoted with scorn as a piece of poor psychological speculation that usually gets everything wrong. The succession of authorial metafictional tricks makes it clear that Shadbolt does not believe in official versions, especially of his own country’s history. He suggests instead that history is a combination of personal interpretations, dependent on individual points of view. It is this ironical approach that particularly distinguishes The Lovelock Version from other family chronicles that were appearing in contemporary New Zealand fiction of the period.

title: Jean Ewen

text:
Jean Ewen (December 24, 1911 – 1987) was a Canadian nurse who worked with Chinese communist soldiers during the 1930s.

Ewen was born in Scotland in 1911, but immigrated with her family to Canada as a child,  where they settled in Saskatchewan. Ewen studied nursing in Winnipeg, graduating in 1931.
In 1932, she moved to China to work as a medical missionary with the Franciscan Fathers, and learned Mandarin. Following a brief return to Canada in 1937, Ewen accompanied Doctor Norman Bethune when he came to China to offer medical aid to the communist forces, serving as his interpreter and assistant.

Ewen came from a family of communist supporters, but she was opposed to mixing politics and medicine. In her memoir China Nurse 1932–1939, she described the horrors of front-line surgery during the Second Sino-Japanese War. In addition to nursing the wounded, she trained nurses and "barefoot doctors" and taught sanitation, for which the Chinese government awarded her the Silver Shield. Ewen eventually left China, traveling south to Hong Kong, and returned to Canada.

Shortly after her return, she married John Kozar, a friend of her two brothers when they served in the Spanish Civil War. They had two children, Laura and Tom (though Laura was conceived while Ewen was still in China, and was born just after Kozar and Ewen were married). Kozar was killed when his ship was sunk in 1942, and Ewen subsequently married Mike Kovitch in 1946, with whom she had a third child, Michael.

China Nurse, Ewen's memoir, was published in 1981. In later editions, it was called Canadian Nurse in China. Ewen died in 1987, and her ashes were returned to China in 1988.

title: Network NorthWest

text:
Network NorthWest was a brand name of British Rail which was applied for a short period to the provincial railway network in North West England. It was launched in 1989 during British Rail's sectorisation programme which created distinct brand identities for regional sub-divisions.

The Network NorthWest name mirrored the larger Network SouthEast brand which had been rolled out on the rail network around London and the South East of England since 1982. Network NorthWest promoted suburban and regional railway services centred on Manchester and was jointly funded by British Rail, the Greater Manchester Passenger Transport Executive and Lancashire County Council. Some Network NorthWest services overlapped with those of neighbouring Merseyrail, another British Rail regional network which was centred on Liverpool.

History

The public launch of the brand took place on 4 April 1989 at an event hosted by television presenter Stuart Hall at the Manchester Museum of Science and Industry. Invited guests travelled on a special train formed of a Class 150 from the museum to , then back from  to . Souvenir tickets were issued for the journey. The Provincial sector of British Rail, which was responsible for the new network, then ran a series of roadshows in town centres across northwest England in June and July 1989 to increase public awareness of the brand.

With effect from 15 May 1989, when the summer 1989 timetable was introduced, all rail services operated by the Provincial sector of British Rail across a large area of northwest England were marketed and operated under the Network NorthWest name. The area was bounded by , , , ,  (via ), , , , , , , , , ,  and . The – and – branches were also included, but the West Coast Main Line between  and  was excluded because it was run by the InterCity sector.

Also introduced at this time were two one-day Rail Rover tickets allowing unlimited off-peak travel in either the full Network NorthWest area (at £7.60, with reductions for children and Railcard holders) or a smaller zone described as the "central area" (£3.80). Ticket issuing facilities at stations were also overhauled during the Network NorthWest era: some stations were destaffed or saw reductions in ticket office opening hours, the new APTIS and SPORTIS systems were installed at many stations, and three types of self-service ticket issuing system were trialled at various locations.

From 15 May 1990, the Merseyrail area was added to Network NorthWest, and additional Rover tickets were introduced to cover various parts of the network.  A Rover covering the whole enlarged area cost £10.90.

Network NorthWest was a short-lived venture and few examples remain of the Network NorthWest brand today. Network NorthWest was eventually absorbed into the Regional Railways operation prior to the privatisation of British Rail and the brand disappeared from use. After privatisation, railway services in the Network NorthWest zone were taken over by North Western Trains and subsequently operated by Northern Rail, Arriva Rail North and Northern Trains, while two local lines were taken into the Manchester Metrolink light rail system.

Branding and rolling stock

Network NorthWest featured a red and grey NW logo which was applied to publicity, timetables, station signage and some rolling stock across the region. The limited NorthWest provincial train livery was a blue upper body, light grey lower body and a red and grey bodyside stripe with an "NW" Logo. The livery was applied to a number of Class 150 Sprinters serving routes in and out of Manchester, and some Class 142 Pacers in light blue  British Rail Provincial livery had the "NW" emblem applied alongside the British Rail double arrow logo.

title: Popular Movement in Iraq

text:
The Popular Movement in Iraq () or the Sunni Popular Movement, or just Popular Movement, or Hirak is a Sunni political movement in Iraq. The spokesperson for the movement is Sheikh Mohammed Taha al-Hamdoun.

Founding
The movement was founded in Samarra at the end of 2011 by the Islamic Army in Iraq, which demobilized following the US withdrawal from Iraq. The IAI had been largely weakened by individuals leaving the group and instead joining the various Sahwa militias. The groups turn away from armed opposition towards activism was criticised by other militant groups, such as Jaysh al-Mujihadeen.

Activity
The movement was involved in the 2012–14 Iraqi protests, particularly in Fallujah, which was also the focus of groups such as al-Qaeda and the Ba'athist Free Iraq Intifada.

The movement is opposed to the government of Nouri al-Maliki, and fighters aligned with the movement have been active in the 2014 Northern Iraq offensive. The movement accuses the government of Nouri al-Maliki of oppressing Sunni's and aims to topple Maliki's government and replace it with a unity government. The movement has also called for a decentralized Iraq with autonomous Sunni regions. The group has also called for Sunni lawmakers to boycott a 1 July 2014 parliamentary meeting to elect a new President and Government of Iraq.

The movement is opposed to ISIS and claims that whilst ISIS has international ambitions, the Popular Movement desires only to defend the rights of Sunni's in Iraq. Hamdoun, the movement's spokesperson, has instead claimed that ISIS only constitutes 3,000 foreign fighters, or 10% of the total number of fighters opposing the Iraqi government, and is incapable of controlling Northern Iraq by itself. Hamdoun has also claimed that they will fight ISIS after the fall of the Maliki government.

title: Ibero-American Model Forest Network

text:
The Ibero-American Model Forest Network (RIABM) is the regional network representing the 29 Model Forests across the Caribbean, Latin America and Spain.

History
During the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development in Rio de Janeiro in 1992, countries agreed that there was an urgent need to find real, practical and sustainable solutions to the great environmental challenges that our planet faced. At this time, Canada invited the rest of the world to put into practice the Model Forest approach and created the IMFN to facilitate the exchange of knowledge and experiences.

The IMFN provides Model Forests in partner countries access to certain opportunities such as the exchange of experiences and the promotion of good governance. This, in turn, increases regional knowledge and the development of strategic initiatives. In addition, the network strengthens the link between regional and global forest policy initiatives and provides an avenue for international donors to fund conservation projects in each country.

About RIABM
The Ibero-American Model Forest Network (RIABM) aims to be a regional benchmark for the sustainable management of forest-based landscapes. It promotes cooperation among Model Forests, institutions and member countries based on knowledge exchange and innovative experiences, and contributes to public policies related to the sustainable management of natural resources.

It is the first voluntary regional organization to be created that brings together 15 countries and 29 Model Forests in Central and South America, the Caribbean and Spain to share knowledge and experiences. The RIABM promotes the sustainable management of forest-based landscapes and connects Model Forests of member countries.

Strategic objectives
The strategic objectives of the RIABM are:

 To consolidate the Model Forest, promote regional Model Forest network expansion and facilitate horizontal collaboration among sites.
 To strengthen the RIABM’s capacity to provide support to its members and to achieve its financial sustainability.
 To share knowledge and transfer technology through technical horizontal collaboration, dissemination of information on best practices and other relates activities.
 To contribute to sectoral and multisectoral processes of public policies formulation, implementation and evaluation related with the sustainable management of forest-based landscapes.

Governance Platforms
Model Forests are in essence governance platforms. They function as territorial management systems that are inclusive to all stakeholders in a community. Each Model Forest has the liberty to define how it will function, as long as it adheres to the Principles and Attributes agreed to by all Model Forests;

Principle 1.  Broad-base Partnership

Principle 2.  Large Landscape

Principle 3. Commitment to Sustainability

Principle 4.  Participatory Governance

Principle 5. A Broad Program of Activities

Principle 6. Commitment to Knowledge Sharing, Capacity Building and Networking

Their multilateral approach to governance distinguishes Model Forests from both top-down and bottom-up approaches. The desire to remain neutral and independent has allowed Model Forests to connect with all stakeholders. One of the rising trends within this model is their focus on forging alliances at multiple levels. Currently, there are 6 regional Model Forest network around the globe, all of which are members of the International Model Forest Network. Each of these regional networks facilitates the communication between local groups with members across the region and even across the globe. By hosting board meetings, capacity development workshops and overseeing project interventions, these networks are facilitating the development of cohesive and sustainable development projects.

Members

Model Forests

Partners

RIABM relies on the collaboration of internationally recognized organizations such as the Tropical Agricultural Research and Higher Education Center (CATIE), the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and Cuso International, the Network partners with countries that support the Model Forest approach to sustainable development.

The RIABM is one of the six regional networks of the International Model Forest Network (IMFN) along with the Mediterranean Model Forest Network, the African Model Forest Network, the Regional Model Forest Network - Asia, the Baltic Landscape Initiative (Sweden, Russia and Northern European countries) and the Canadian Model Forest Network. Since the founding of the RIABM in 2002, it has evolved to become one of the largest and most dynamic regional networks within the IMFN. The IMFN is a global community of practice that links over 60 Model Forests in 30 countries across five continents around the world.

title: Walter Webb Allport

text:
Walter Webb Allport, M.D., D.D.S (June 10, 1824 – March 21, 1893) was an American dentist from New York. Raised on a farm, he left home at the age of fourteen following the Panic of 1837. He studied dentistry at the New York College of Dental Surgery and moved to Chicago, Illinois, shortly after receiving his Doctor of Dental Surgery. He became the preeminent dentist in Chicago, noted for his early use of crystalline gold fillings. He co-founded the American Dental Association in 1859, serving on its board of directors and later serving as president. He also co-founded the Chicago Dental Infirmary. Allport is also noted for his invention of the dental registration ledger.

Biography
Walter Webb Allport was born in Lorain, New York, on June 10, 1824. He was a cousin of English railroad manager James Joseph Allport. Allport was raised on the family farm in Scriba, New York, often hauling wood to Oswego, New York. His father lost the farm in the Panic of 1837 and Walter was forced to leave home to make his own living at the age of fourteen. After working on a farm in Rodman, New York, he left for Watertown to learn a trade. He began to study medicine under Amasa Trowbridge in 1844, graduating two years later. He joined the dental firm of Denning & Robinson. In 1848, Allport left to become the junior partner with Dr. D. W. Perkins in Rome. He later practiced alone in Pulaski. Allport attended the New York College of Dental Surgery in 1852, graduating with a Doctor of Dental Surgery the next year.

In 1854, Allport decided to move west to take advantage of the growing population of Chicago, Illinois. He founded an office at 144 Lake Street, sharing the space with a physician. Allport rented a barber's chair by the month to use as an operating chair. In May 1855, he moved to 75 Clark Street, then two years later to 32 Washington Strert. His clientele rapidly grew as Allport was one of the only dentists to know how to use crystal gold for fillings. He was elected Corresponding Secretary of the American Dental Convention in 1856. Two years later, he was elected president of the Western Dental Society. The next year, he was president of the convention that founded the American Dental Association at Niagara Falls, New York. He was elected first chairman of the organization in 1860. With Dr. S. T. Creighton, he began publishing the People's Dental Journal in January 1863, which ran for two years.

Allport helped to organize the Chicago Dental Association in 1864. In 1865, Allport was named president of the American Dental Convention and became a charter member of the Illinois State Dental Society. Allport occasionally lectured at Rush Medical College and was named an emeritus professor of that institution. Rush awarded him an honorary Doctor of Medicine (MD) in 1881. He co-founded the Chicago Dental Infirmary in 1883. The school was organized to provide students with an MD degree an opportunity to also pursue a Doctor of Dental Surgery. The school was unsuccessful, and a year later the institution dropped its MD requirement and was renamed the Chicago College of Dental Surgery. Allport remained as a director.

Allport was elected president of the American Dental Association in 1886. He was vice president of the 9th International Medical Congress in 1887, where he co-founded the dental section. At the congress, he also successfully petitioned the American Medical Association to allow dentists to join the organization; this was later overturned. He led the effort to found the World's Columbian Dental Congress for the 1893 World's Columbian Exposition.

On December 24, 1847, Allport married Sarah Maria Haddock. They had three sons and one daughter. All three sons became physicians. In 1858, Allport designed the first dental registering ledger, featuring diagrams of the teeth for easy identification. The ledger was used by other dentists in the following decades. Allport was an early advocate of the use of crystalline gold and dental dams. He co-founded the Chicago Microscopical Club in 1868 and was its first president. He attended Grace Episcopal Church and was a Mason. Allport died on March 21, 1893, from meningitis. He was buried in Graceland Cemetery.

title: VAGA

text:
VAGA is an artists collective dedicated to improving mental health and fighting cognitive decline through art therapy. The organisation brings together artists, clinicians and academic psychologists to foster research collaboration and the development of new art therapies. Vaga separated from the Artists Rights Society in 2018 and is now a distinct entity with a separate mission focused on mental health.

Mission

Founded in 1976, VAGA (Visual Arts and Galleries Association)  was the first fine art and photography royalty collecting society in the United States, and continues to be one of the largest.  Modeled after ASCAP (The American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers), VAGA acts as a clearinghouse for licensing reproduction rights to publishers, museums, film production companies, auction houses, galleries, multinational corporations, and other users of art. In addition, VAGA protects its members from infringements, advises on all aspects of intellectual property law, and advocates for artists’ rights. VAGA represents artists worldwide, both directly and through agreements with affiliated organizations in other countries. As a member of CISAC, the international confederation of societies that represent creators, VAGA takes part in establishing the international standards that govern the use of copyrighted works.

Advocacy and Lobbying
VAGA works to improve artists’ rights through consultation with the United States Copyright Office and by lobbying Congress for improved rights legislation.

In 2014 VAGA, along with other rights organizations, initiated the introduction of the American Royalties Too (ART) Act. The bill was introduced in the House of Representatives by Rep. Jerrold Nadler and in the Senate by Senators Tammy Baldwin and Ed Markey. If enacted, the bill will establish a resale royalty, whereby the creator of a work would receive a percentage of the sale of that work when it is resold at auction.

The United States Copyright Office reviewed the viability of a resale royalty law in the United States in 2012. VAGA submitted public comments in support of such a law and addressed the concerns of critics. VAGA's Executive Director, Robert Panzer, also participated in roundtable discussions hosted by the United States Copyright Office in order to advocate for a resale royalty law. The findings of the Office’s review were determinedly in favor of a resale royalty law in the United States.

VAGA Mental Health Projects
In 2018, VAGA officially splintered from the Artists Rights Society, with the latter retaining all of the organisations licensing and copyright claim responsibilities, and the former continuing with all mental health and art therapy projects. Vaga now runs a sizeable program aimed at exploring the link between mental health and the arts. Artists involved in the project have publicly shared their struggles with poor mental health, and some participate in free sessions designed to show the general public how art can help them overcome certain mental health challenges. Home-based art therapy classes are available 100% online.

The Vaga mental health project also includes a number of psychological experts, including psychiatrists, psychologists, therapists and care workers; these professionals come together to explore how art can be used as a therapeutic technique in certain cases of mental or neurological illness. Most art therapy sessions take place in and around New York, although a national network of artists and clinical psychologists is being established and should begin offering art therapy sessions by 2023.

title: Caustic Window (album)

text:
Caustic Window (also known as Caustic Window LP) is an album by Richard D. James under the alias Caustic Window. Originally planned for release in 1996, only a few test pressings were produced. One of the copies, which surfaced for sale on Discogs in 2014, was bought and digitally distributed through a Kickstarter campaign. It was eventually sold on eBay for $46,300.

Background
Although 2 of the tracks ("Phlaps" and "Cunt") appeared on compilations in the 1990s, the actual Caustic Window album's release was canceled. At least five copies were pressed in 1994. At least one copy was sold through the Record & Tape Exchange in Camden in the late 1990s. One of the copies surfaced on Discogs in 2014, with a price of $13,500. In response, We Are the Music Makers, an electronic music forum, negotiated with Rephlex Records and initiated a Kickstarter project in which backers received a digital copy of the album. More than $47,000 was raised.

After the Kickstarter campaign, the copy was sold on an eBay auction. Money raised from the sale was split evenly between the Kickstarter contributors, Richard D. James and Doctors Without Borders. The copy was bought by Markus "Notch" Persson, the creator of Minecraft, for $46,300.

Critical reception

Mark Richardson of Pitchfork named Caustic Window the week's "best new reissue", and wrote: "Caustic Window LP probably wouldn’t have left a significant mark, and would have been heard as second-tier James. Twenty years later, though, we’re hearing it with that aura, that extra bit of longing that comes from how scarce music from James has become. And in that light, second tier is still very good indeed." Derek Staples of Consequence of Sound wrote that "the greatest gems within this collection highlight James’ foresight into electronic dance music", with "early examples of now trending tech-house ...

text:
Sir Thomas Bromley KCMG (14 December 1911 – 18 June 1987) was a British diplomat who was ambassador to Somalia, Syria, Algeria, and Ethiopia.

Career
Son of Thomas Edward Bromley of the Indian Civil Service, Thomas Eardley Bromley was educated at Rugby School and Magdalen College, Oxford. He joined the British Consular Service in 1935 and was a vice-consul in Japan from 1938 until 1941 when Japan entered World War II. He then returned to London and after the war served at Washington, D.C., and Baghdad.

Bromley was the first Ambassador to the then Somali Republic after independence on 1 July 1960, then ambassador to Syria 1962–64 following its secession from the United Arab Republic, then ambassador to Algeria from 1964 until Algeria, along with other members of the OAU, broke off diplomatic relations in December 1965 over Rhodesia. Bromley's last ambassadorship was to Ethiopia 1966–69. In 1968, while addressing a gathering of 2,000 university students in Addis Ababa, he was stoned by demonstrators against the Smith regime in Rhodesia.

In its obituary of Bromley, The Times said
"Tom Bromley was a cultured, sensitive and intensely private man. ... Inevitably, with his wife committed to custody, he withdrew from society but was able to go on to occupy more ambassadorial posts than are given to most diplomats."

Honours
Thomas Bromley was appointed CMG in the 1955 Birthday Honours and knighted KCMG in the 1964 Birthday Honours.

title: Maha Kavi Moyinkutty Vaidyar Smarakam

text:
The Maha Kavi Moyinkutty Vaidyar Smarakam () is a memorial building dedicated to Moyinkutty Vaidyar (1852–1892), often referred to as Mahakavi (great poet), who is historically considered one of the most renowned poets of the Mappila pattu genre of Malayalam language.

About Moyinkutty Vaidyar
Moyinkutty Vaidyar was born to Unni Mammad and Kunjamina in year 1852 at Ottupara, Malappuram district, Kerala. His father was famous practitioner of Ayurveda branch of medicines and poet of the times, he completed the work of his son based on Hijra from the 27th Ishal onwards. Moyinkutty Vaidyar continued his family tradition of Ayurvedic medical practice and hence he known as ‘Vaidyar’ (practitioner of Ayurvedic medicine). He learnt Sanskrit and Arabic languages. He composed the romantic epic Badarul Munir – Husnul Jamal (1872) at the age of 17. It was a fictional love story of Prince Badarul Muneer and Husnul Jamal and it included many fantasy pieces as well. Towards the  end of his life, he followed another style of writing. Among all his works, Mappilappattu (light /folk songs of Muslim communities) made him popular poet. He used to camp at Munchundi Mosque (Muchundipalli), Kuttichira while compiling some of his works. He died in the year 1892 at a comparatively younger age of 40 leaving behind his wife and three children. None of his direct descendants was survived after his children. His father outlived him, and completed the work Hijra on behalf of his son. Maha kavi moyinkutty vaidyar smaraka now preserves many handwritten copies of his works.

He is titled ‘Mahakavi’ (Great poet) and his major poetry works include Salaseel, Elippada, Baithila, Hijra, Ottakathinteyum maaninteyum kathakilathimala, Moolapuranam, Uhad Padappattu, Theevandichinth, Karamath Mala, Swaleeqath and Mullappoocholayil. Shabvathul Bdarul Kubra, also known as Badar Padappattu, is considered one of the finest compositions of Mappilappattu. Malappuram Padappat is the next noted song.

Background of the monument
In 1999, Chief Minister of Kerala, E. K. Nayanar inaugurated the Mahakavi Moyinkutty Vaidyar Smarakam at the poet's birthplace in Kondotty as a cultural centre  to attract research into the annotations of Badar pattu, and its studies and interpretations in Malayalam.

Mappila Kala Academy
On 9 February 2013 Mappila Kala Academy was inaugurated, functioning at the memorial building itself, by The Kerala State Minister for Culture K. C. Joseph (Irikkur politician) and was made necessary arrangement to allot fund from Non-plan fund of the Government.

title: Fundy Footpath

text:
The Fundy Footpath is a  hiking trail that starts at the Fundy Trail Parkway from Big Salmon River to Fundy National Park in New Brunswick, Canada. The trail connects to the  Fundy Trail at Fundy National Park, which in turn connects to the Dobson Trail.  The trail's earliest route was blazed by Jack McKay in the early 1980s but it fell into disuse. It was reestablished by Alonzo and Gilles Leger along with many, many other volunteers throughout the late 1980 and early 1990s. The trail was officially opened in 1994 under the management of the Fundy Hiking Trail Association Inc. In 2012 more than 500 people hiked the trail, which offers a challenging hiking experience lasting 4 days.

title: Şahinde Hanım

text:
Şahinde Hanım (; born Princess Kezban Marshania;  1895 – 15 March 1924) was an Abkhazian princess. She was a lady-in-waiting to Nazikeda Kadın, wife of Mehmed VI, the last Sultan of the Ottoman Empire.

Life
Şahinde Hanım was born in 1895 in Sivas. Born as Kezban, she was a member of Abkhazian princely family, Marshania. Her father was Prince Abdülkadir Hasan Bey Marshania, (1862 - 1917) an office in the Ottoman army whose family had migrated from the Caucasus, and her mother was Princess Mevlüde İnal-lpa (1862 - 1937), also an Abkhazian. She had three brothers, Ismail Bey, Ali Bey, and Reşid Bey, and two sisters, Pakize who had been renamed Mislimelek Hanım (1883 - 1955), and Hatice who had been renamed Aşubican Hanım (1891 - 1955).

At a young age, she and her sister were sent to Istanbul to their aunt Nazikeda Kadın, who had been married to then Şehzade Vahideddin (future Sultan Mehmed VI). Here her name according to the custom of the Ottoman court was changed to Şahinde. She and her sister went onto serve Nazikeda as ladies-in-waiting to her. Sometime later her sister married, and left the palace, while she didn't marry, and continued to serve Nazikeda as second lady-in-waiting.

When Sultan Mehmed was deposed, he went into exile on 17 November 1922, leaving his family behind in Istanbul. During this time the revolutionaries closed Nazikeda along with her ladies-in-waiting, including Şahinde in the Feriye Palace. After Nazikeda also went into exile on 10 March 1924, Şahinde stayed in Istanbul. She was eventually acquitted by the Turkish Parliament. On the day of her release Şahinde was stabbed by a fanatical revolutionary in the street, and died a short time later in because of her serious injury on 15 March 1924 in Istanbul. She was buried in Eyüp cemetery.

title: Susworth

text:
Susworth is a hamlet in the West Lindsey district of Lincolnshire, England. It is on the east bank of the River Trent,  west from Scotter, in which civil parish it lies. The nearest large towns are Gainsborough, approximately  to the south, and Scunthorpe 7 miles to the north-east.

This settlement documented as 'Susworth' was recorded c.1200, parts of which were considered associated with East Ferry.

In the second half of the 18th century, before the establishment of the Methodist chapel, invited Wesleyan preachers, one of whom was John Wesley, used a private house in the hamlet.

Susworth is recorded in the 1872 White's Directory as a hamlet of Scotter, others being Scotterthorpe and Cotehouses. There were six farmers in the hamlet, one of whom was also a blacksmith. There was the licensed victualler of the White Horse public house who was also a coal merchant, a further coal merchant, two shopkeepers, a joiner & wheelwright, a corn miller, a maltster, and a foreman maltster.

In 1885 Susworth contained a Primitive Methodist chapel. Occupations included ten farmers, a shopkeeper, wheelwright, blacksmith, and the landlord of the White Horse public house. By 1933 there were two Methodist chapels and a church reading room. The number of farmers had dropped to five, with one smallholder. A shop and the White Horse pub still existed.

Susworth soldiers killed in the First World War received no memorial within the village; at least eleven Susworth men survived the war.

The village contains a centre for civil marriages run by North Lincolnshire Council, a riverside inn and a post box.

title: Lovers on the Sun

text:
"Lovers on the Sun" is a song by French music producer David Guetta from his sixth studio album, Listen. It features vocals by American singer and songwriter Sam Martin. It was released as a digital download and the lead single from the album on 30 June 2014. It was produced by Guetta, Avicii, Riesterer, and Tuinfort, with additional production from Italian house production team Daddy's Groove. The track crowned the singles chart in Austria, Finland, Germany and the United Kingdom, and reached the top 40 in most of the countries where it charted.

Mallory Knox covered the song on BBC Radio 1's Live Lounge.

Background
The song is inspired by Spaghetti Western film scores.

Composition
"Lovers on the Sun" is a country, folk and EDM song. Mike Einziger of the band Incubus, who also played on Avicii's "Wake Me Up", also plays guitar on this track. The song is written in the key of B minor, at a tempo of 125 beats per minute, with Martin's vocals ranging from A2 to B4. The chord progression of the chorus (Bm/D/F#m/E) bears similarity to Daft Punk's 2013 single "Get Lucky".

Music video
A lyric video was produced for the song with a Wild West theme.
An accompanying music video was released on 12 August 2014 again with a Wild West theme. It was directed by Marc Klasfeld, and stars Ray Liotta who portrays a villain and Jamie Gray Hyder, portraying a hero "the Sexy" rescuing Andrew Keegan "the Good". Idolator said the video was "refreshing" and called it "a special effects-filled extravaganza".

Critical reception
4Music celebrated the song's "double DJ power" (Guetta and Avicii, who co-wrote and co-produced the track) and suggested that it "must mean this'll be a big hit".

title: Duo: Stephanie Ho and Saar Ahuvia

text:
Stephanie Ho and Saar Ahuvia, concert pianists, collaborate to perform four hand works as "Duo." Ho attended Oberlin College receiving degrees in religion and piano performance.  Both Ho and Ahuvia pursued graduate degrees in performance at the Peabody Institute of Johns Hopkins University and studied with Leon Fleisher.

Their performance repertoire is diverse. Their groundbreaking performance of Igor Stravinsky's The Rite of Spring arranged for four hands was reviewed by The New York Times. They have also performed an arrangement of Stravinsky's Petrushka, which The New York Times declared, "came through in all...visionary clarity."Duo also has a repertoire of recordings and their CD, "Bach Crossings," which was described by the Chicago Reader as a "lovely, concise recording [that] does nothing to obscure Bach's indelible melodies... It still feels very different from conventional performances of the same music: Kurtag provides a modern sensibility and heightened harmonic splendor, while Ho and Ahuvia bring a less rigid sense of time and rhythm, creating a rich fluidity."Their newest CD, "Beethoven Dialogues," includes "Beethoven's String Quartet No. 6 in G Major [which] captured the music's serenity, the melodic interplay [also] exquisitely realized."

 Sign Language

After years of touring which included several high-profile support tours in Germany the band gained interest and eventually signed to Universal Music Germany. Teamed with several different producers including Al Clay (A, Stereophonics, Reef), Roland Spremberg (Aha) and Moritz Enders  and working in studios in LA, Texas, Hamburg and Berlin  the band recorded and released their debut album in 2009 charting at no 16 in the German charts.

title: Tariq Najm

text:
Tariq Najm Abdullah Al Saa'dawi () known as Tariq Najm (born July, 1945) was the Chief of Staff for the previous Prime Minister of Iraq Nouri al-Maliki; between 2006 and 2010. He is a senior advisor for the current Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi.

Najm was born in July 1945 in the city of Ash Shatrah in what was then known as Muntafiq Governorate. He went on to study as an undergraduate at the Faculty Theology at the University of Baghdad. He has been a member of the Islamic Dawa Party since the late sixties. He then went on to earn a master's degree and doctorate from the University of Al-Azhar in the Arabic language, before going on to work as a professor at the King Abdul Aziz University in Jeddah. In 1986 he moved to the United Arab Emirates, teaching at the United Arab Emirates University until 1991, when he moved to Yemen and was appointed as a professor at Sana'a University. He worked there until 2001, when he travelled to London and claimed political asylum.

Following the Invasion of Iraq in April 2003 he returned to Iraq, and became Nouri al-Maliki's Chief of Staff in Maliki's First Government in the summer of 2006.

After the poor performance of the Iraqi Army and the resurgence of anti-government militant groups during the 2014 Northern Iraq offensive there were discussions of Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki being replaced. Najm was one of the individuals rumoured to be being considered as a replacement. In Najm's favour was his reputation as a mediator, his healthy relationships with Iran, Turkey, and the US, and also his strong relationship with Ayatollah Sistani. He is no longer a member of the Iraqi government.
