title: 1814 State of the Union Address

text:
The 1814 State of the Union Address was given by the fourth president of the United States, James Madison, to the 13th United States Congress. It was given on Tuesday, September 20, 1814, during the height of the War of 1812.  It was given during President Madison's turbulent second term.  One month after he gave the speech, the British burning of Washington occurred on August 24, and President Madison fled and lived in The Octagon House. Madison lived there until 1816, until the White House could be rebuilt.  The three key points are:

"Negotiations on foot with Great Britain, whether it should require arrangements adapted to a return of peace or further and more effective provisions for prosecuting the war.
"Government of Great Britain that her hostile orders against our commerce would not be revoked but on conditions as impossible as unjust, whilst it was known that these orders would not otherwise cease but with a war which had lasted nearly twenty years, and which, according to appearances at that time, might last as many more; having manifested on every occasion and in every proper mode a sincere desire to arrest the effusion of blood and meet our enemy on the ground of justice and reconciliation,
"Availing himself of fortuitous advantages, he is aiming with his undivided force a deadly blow at our growing prosperity, perhaps at our national existence. He has avowed his purpose of trampling on the usages of civilized warfare, and given earnests of it in the plunder and wanton destruction of private property."  The Prince Regent proceeded with the War.  King George IV, who was then Prince of Wales, was serving as Regent because his father, King George III was too mentally ill to sign executive orders funding the war.

title: Henry Bonli

text:
Henry Thomas Bonli (8 August 1927 – 16 May 2011) was a Canadian painter and interior designer.

Early years

Henry Thomas Bonli was born in Lashburn, Saskatchewan, on 8 August 1927, son of Tom and Esther Bonli.
He grew up in a large family. He attended Dover rural school and Melfort Collegiate.
He obtained a teaching certificate at Saskatoon Normal School (later the Saskatoon Teachers' College) in 1947.
At this school he was encouraged to paint by Wynona Mulcaster, and made a mural of the prairies named Open Spaces.
Bonli taught in a rural school for a short period.
He then became a teacher in Meadow Lake, Saskatchewan until 1950, when he began to study art.

Bonli married Elsa Pederson (born 6 September 1930), daughter of Danish parents who immigrated to Saskatchewan in 1927.
She was a registered nurse who worked at Melfort Hospital before their marriage. They had two children, Scott and Jane.
Later they divorced and Elsa remarried.

Bonli studied with Illingworth Kerr and Luke Lindoe at the Provincial Institute of Technology and Arts in Calgary, Alberta. He then went to the Art Center School in Los Angeles and the University of Southern California, studying water colors and fabric design.
While in Los Angeles he had a part-time job with the Bullochs Department Store in their design studio, where he gained practical experience in interior design.

Career

Saskatoon
Bonli returned to Saskatoon and worked at Clark's Interior Furnishings for four years while giving evening classes in art.
Bonli participated in the first Emma Lake Artist's Workshop in 1955, and in subsequent workshops in 1956, 1957, 1962, 1963 and 1965.
At these workshops he studied with Jack Shadbolt, Joseph Plaskett, Will Barnet, Clement Greenberg, Kenneth Noland, Jules Olitski, and Lawrence Alloway.
In 1957 he taught the young Joan Anderson at Saskatoon Technical Collegiate. She would later be better known as the singer Joni Mitchell.
Then aged thirteen, she had planned to take lessons from the well-known landscape and figurative Ernest Lindner, but he was on sabbatical that year.
Bonli found her an argumentative pupil.

In 1957 Bonli founded Bonli Interiors in Saskatoon.
It first occupied James Art Studio and then moved to premises on the lower floor of the King George Hotel that had been vacated by the Mendel Art Gallery.
The firm provided interior design services and the store sold gifts and bath accessories, imported Scandinavian furniture and window coverings.
Bonli soon began to also undertake residential and commercial work in Regina, where he had a full-time representative.
In 1958 Bonli appeared on a weekly CTV television show with Margaret Dallin, and then on a show with Sally Merchant called Here Comes Sally.
He also took summer courses at the Parsons School of Design in New York City.
In New York Henry and his wife Elsa became friends of the critic Clement Greenberg.

Bonli was an admirer of New York abstract expressionists such as Barnett Newman.
He was encouraged by the art collector Fred Mendel to exhibit his work. He participated in shows at the Mendel Art Centre and the Dunlop Gallery in Regina.
Bonli was a member of the Saskatchewan Arts Board and the Saskatchewan Society of Artists.
He was vice-president of the Saskatoon Art Centre.
He was an art consultant for the Saskatoon School System for three years, and was Assistant Curator at the Coste House art center in Calgary.
He held a one-man show at the Mendel Art Gallery in 1965.

Toronto
Bonli moved with his family to Toronto in 1965 where they opened Bonli Gallery, selling art and furniture.
Later he opened two more stores, both called "Henri The Second", which sold factory over-runs and designer furnishings.
In 1966–67 Joni Mitchell would often stay rent-free at Bonli's Toronto studio over Rugantino's restaurant on Yonge Street, with her husband Chuck Mitchell, and at times was babysitter for the Bonlis' daughter Jane. The Bonlis considered that Chuck was the better singer of the two, and would be the one to succeed.
By this time Bonli had become a reasonably well-known painter.
Bonli continued to return to Saskatoon to execute interior design commissions.
In 1974 he sold his interior design company and devoted himself to painting.

Henry Thomas Bonli died at St. Michael's Hospital, Toronto, on 16 May 2011.
He was aged 83.

Exhibitions and collections

Bonli's works in acrylic and watercolor began to be exhibited in galleries across Canada in the early 1950s.
He held a number of solo exhibitions in Regina, Saskatoon, and Toronto.
Bonli's work is held by the National Gallery of Canada in Ottawa, the Saskatchewan Arts Board, University of Saskatchewan, Mendel Art Gallery in Saskatoon, MacKenzie Art Gallery in Regina and the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts.

title: Lake Murray meteorite

text:
The Lake Murray Meteorite, the largest of its kind ever found in Oklahoma and now ranked as the fifth largest in the world, was discovered on a farm in Carter County, Oklahoma in 1933. At that time it was considered the largest known specimen in the world. The farm was sold to the state of Oklahoma about the same time for the creation of Lake Murray State Park, for which the specimen was named. The largest piece is on display at the park.

The meteorite was found on the site of Lake Murray State Park in 1933 by J. C. Dodson, Sr. The core was covered by a sheathing of iron oxide and shale that was about  thick on the exposed part and up to  thick on the buried part.  When the specimen was removed from the ground and the sheathing removed, the core measured  long,  thick and tapered in width from  at one end to  at the other. It weighed .

Allen Graffham, a geologist and curator of the park's Tucker Tower museum, was interested in a more scientific study of the object. He contacted Dr. Lincoln LaPaz of the University of New Mexico about the specimen. LaPaz confirmed that it was a meteorite. He assessed that it was composed primarily of nickel and iron, and estimated that it may have weighed  when it struck, about 90 to 110 million years ago, but that oxidation had since worn away  of the surface.

LaPaz, then the director of the Institute of Meteoritics at the University,  carefully cut the specimen into two pieces. He performed additional tests and classed the specimen as octahedrite.    He wrote that it could also be an example of a hexaoctahedrite (a transition between hexahedrite and octahedrite).  A more recent  reference states that the meteorite is an iron meteorite belonging to Group IIAB, which can be classified as either a hexahedrite or a coarsest octahedrite. Chemical analysis showed that the material contained 6.3% nickel (Ni), 0.5% Phosphorus (P), 53.9 parts per million (ppm) Gallium (Ga), 141 ppm Germanium (Ge), and 0.02 ppm Iridium (Ir).

One half of the specimen was retained at Lake Murray, where it has been displayed at the Tucker Tower museum since the early 1950s.

The New England Meteoritical Service has posted several photos taken during analysis of the specimen.

title: Fern Brady

text:
Fern Marie Brady (born 26 May 1986) is a Scottish comedian, podcaster, and writer. Before becoming a stand-up comedian Brady worked as a journalist. She achieved fame as a stand-up comedian by entering stand-up competitions such as at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. As a result of her success as a stand-up she was invited on to comedy panel shows such as 8 Out of 10 Cats. In 2020 she became a podcaster when she co-created a podcast entitled Wheel of Misfortune.

Brady was diagnosed as being on the autism spectrum in 2021, as an adult. She has been active within the field of autism education since learning of her diagnosis. She has written how she has been dealing with the diagnosis in her 2023 memoir Strong Female Character.

Early life
Brady was born in Bathgate, West Lothian, where she grew up. She went to school at St. Kentigern's Academy, Blackburn in West Lothian. She is of Irish descent, has family roots in County Donegal, and grew up within the Catholic Church in Scotland. Her father worked at the truck company Scania, and her mother worked at Tesco. Her parents have since divorced.

Career
While at the University of Edinburgh, Brady was editor of The Student, a weekly newspaper produced by students. To finance her university studies, she worked as a stripper. She graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in Arabic and Islamic History. Following university, Brady originally trained to become a journalist, although she had been thinking about becoming a stand-up comedian since 2006. In 2009, she was an intern at Fest Magazine, a free magazine covering the Edinburgh Festival. One of her assignments there was to write an article about a comedy critic trying stand-up. Brady describes the experience as "the push I needed to realise it was what I wanted to do". Her first professional gig was in May 2010.

She reached the finals of "So You Think You're Funny" at the 2011 Edinburgh Festival Fringe, where she was placed joint third; the finals of the Piccadilly Comedy Club new act competition in 2012, and the Hackney Empire New Act of the Year in 2013. She has appeared on 8 Out of 10 Cats, Seann Walsh's Late Night Comedy Spectacular, The Alternative Comedy Experience, BBC Radio 4's The News Quiz, series 3 of Live from the BBC, series 14 of Live at the Apollo and on series 3 of Frankie Boyle's New World Order. She has written for The Guardian.

In 2020, Brady and fellow comedian Alison Spittle started a podcast for the BBC called Wheel of Misfortune.

In late 2021, Brady co-presented the Dave travelogue British as Folk alongside fellow comedians Ivo Graham and Darren Harriott. In January 2022, Brady began a 25-date tour of her new show, Autistic Bikini Queen. In June 2022, Brady was confirmed to be a contestant in the 14th series of Taskmaster, which started airing in September 2022.

In 2023, her memoir, Strong Female Character, was published by Brazen.

Personal life
Brady is bisexual. She was misdiagnosed with obsessive–compulsive disorder (OCD) at the age of 16, and revealed in 2021 that she has been diagnosed as autistic.

title: Vergeltung

text:
("Retaliation" or "Payback") is the second novel of the writer Gert Ledig (1921-1999).  It is an apocalyptic autobiographical anti-war novel.   It mines the author's own experiences and is considered an important example of the literary realism genre of postwar novel.

The book was originally published in late 1956, by the long established Frankfurt publishing house S. Fischer Verlag. It deals with 70 minutes of a mid-night bomb attack by the United States Army Air Forces against an unnamed German city towards the end of World War II, during which a large number of civilians and military personnel are killed. The events are described from both the American and German perspectives with great directness, and without shielding the reader from the horrific details.

Ledig's first novel  ("The Stalin Organ"), which dealt with the battles of the Russian Front in the Leningrad region in the Soviet Union, had been an international success. By contrast, Vergeltung was widely rejected by readers when it appeared in 1956. The book was quickly forgotten and there were no plans for a reprint. That changed in the late 1990s, shortly before the author's death, when the book encountered much more widespread acceptance, led by scholar-critics including Max Sebald, Marcel Reich-Ranicki and Volker Hage. Vergeltung now acquired a correspondingly wider readership, with several new editions published by Suhrkamp Verlag starting in 1999. Translations followed into Dutch (entitled Vergelding, meaning "Retribution") in 2001; English (as Payback) and French (as Sous les bombes – "Under the Bombs") in 2003; Spanish (as Represalia – "Reprisal") in 2006; and Croatian (as Odmazda – "Reprisal") in 2008. At the same time a new interest in Ledig's literary output emerged among critics and readers, which would outlive the author himself. In effect, shortly before he died Ledig found himself “rediscovered” by the literary establishment.

The storylines
Vergeltung deals with the fates of the inhabitants and defenders of an unnamed German city and of an American bomber crew that has approached the city in a formation of bombers. In total twelve storylines can be identified, all connected with the air attack, and all given more or less equal weight, even though they differ greatly in terms of their more detailed narratives.

Eight of the twelve storylines focus on a single character or group of characters. For instance, during the attack the bomber is shot down by a German fighter-plane and the crew are forced to evacuate. The American pilot, named "Sergeant Jonathan Strenehen", having survived a crash landing, falls into the hands of some Germans and is gruesomely abused physically, contrary to the provisions of to the Geneva Convention which guarantee the "bodily integrity" of prisoners of war. This occurs despite Strenehen having taken care to crash land his bomber on a public cemetery in order to spare the civilian population - something of which his German captors are unaware. Later two German civilians do come to help Strenehen, but in the end he nevertheless dies as a consequence of brutal treatment received from German civilians whose sadistic actions can be traced back to their awful experience of the aerial bombings.

Other storylines concerns the fate of the suicidal Cheovski couple, a rescue squad, a group of forced laborers from Eastern Europe, a war-shattered lieutenant from a "Flak squadron", a group of drunken soldiers and a man looking for his family driven almost mad by his predicament. Another of the threads presents a young woman driven to an air-raid shelter by the bombs and later raped by an old German man, reacting under the exceptional circumstances, and who himself later commits suicide. Four other storylines each focus on just one scene or circumstance. These concern an air defense position, a coordination command post, a huge concrete bunker along the lines of those that existed only in the largest cities such as Berlin and Vienna, and a transformer station for the municipal power supply.

With the exception of Sgt. Jonathan Strenehen, who is the mostly fully formed of the protagonists and whose fate is spelled out, it is generally left for the reader to decide which, if any, of the participants in the various storylines survive the bombing raid.

Structural aspects
The novel is divided into thirteen chapters which are sandwiched between a prologue and an epilogue that includes precise information on the time of day covered. The length of time taken by the events recounted exceeds by a good hour the 70 minutes actually covered. From this it is to be inferred that the episodes presented take place simultaneously.

All the chapters are composed of short or very short fragments of text. These present snapshots of the respective plot lines and are arranged in a way that provides the reader with an initially confusing experience. Thus the novel's structure reflects and communicates the disorientating impact of a bomb attack on the characters on the novel. Each chapter starts with an italicized autobiographical interlude, reporting in the first person on the fate of one of the characters, using the formats of letters, personal résumés and monologues. However, this novel provides no continuous action driven narrative, but comprises a succession of short episodes that pick-up on earlier plot-lines and progress them briefly before moving on. What takes place is therefore a constant staccato of rapidly changing locations, narratives and players. In this way the structure resembles that of some movies.

There is little use of protagonists in the traditional sense, to define and progress the storylines. The book is driven, rather, by events around which the central conflicts revolve. Many of the characters are identified only by a military rank or by their profession, and this feeds the impression of a collectivized experience. To some extent narrative context is provided by the brief quasi-autobiographical sketches appearing in italic font at the start of each chapter, but these are nonetheless incomplete and fragmentary.

Apart from those short biographical sections, the narrative developments are presented directly from the author. The all-knowing narrator, who does not himself participate in the action, communicates the thoughts and feelings of the various participants, but he does this by concentrating on external manifestations, and avoids comments or value judgements, leaving it for the reader to form any required assessments of characters' inner motivations and reactions. Through this overwhelmingly neutral narrative stance, which comes close to resembling a documentary approach, the novel becomes authentic and powerfully plausible. At the same time the sparsity of commentary summons up a bleak underlying nihilism. Exceptionally, right at the end, the writer breaches his neutral narrative stance for a moment. The narrator uses the authority which his objectivity has established through the novel to communicate that the allied bombing of German cities in the Second World War had become unavoidable, but in the same breath he denies the allied forces any general right to act as they did, while a Christian concept teaches that issues of moral authority regarding such matters must be reserved for the Last Judgment.

Style
The language in Ledig's second novel comes across as highly laconic and staccato. The rapid narrative pace is reminiscent of the postwar Trümmerliteratur employed by  Günter Eich in the lyric piece . Much the same can be said of Gert Ledig's use of parataxis, declamatory statements, ellipsis and the relatively low level of visual imagery.   Value related adjectives and adverbs are applied sparingly, in order to reinforce the impression of realism and the impact of facts.

The novel's occasional use of symbolism mostly has a religious dimension, in the context of the theodicy problem or in reference to the Passion narrative. The symbol of the cross has a particular significance here, both as a Leitmotif in Christianity, and in terms of the military connotations, in Germany, of the Iron Cross.

Critical and public reception
In the 1950s, the critical reaction in West Germany to Vergeltung was sharply negative. There were one or two more positive reactions from a handful of reviewers in the East German papers, as well as in one or two lower tier West German publications. At that time the dominant opinion formers in the world of German-language literature were writing for the leading newspapers, and these condemned the novel unanimously. As an example, Peter Hornung in Die Zeit criticised Ledig's prose style as "over-simplified to the point of desolation"   Writing in the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, Wolfgang Schwerbrock found the novel "excessively emotional and declamatory"

Commentators were in particular affronted by the novel's numerous depictions of violence and death. In the Rheinischer Merkur E. R. Dallontano found Ledig's depiction of rape, and the shattering of a taboo that this represented, "distasteful and obnoxious" ("widerwärtig") and a "mainspring of the author's gruseomeness" ("Triebfeder seiner Gruselei“).   Writing in the Kölner Stadt-Anzeiger, Rolf Becker's reaction was similarly hyperbolic: he complained that the novel would provide the reader with nothing but a "rapid succession of various horrors bathed in the deathly stench of naked sensation" Assertions of this nature left the critics' many readers to conclude that Gert Ledig had produced not a work of serious literary merit, but an old fashioned "Penny dreadful". The idea that the novel was a serious attempt at a literary reassessment of the Second World War gained hardly any traction. The novel was underpinned by an ugly and unvarnished presentation of total war, acknowledging no diminution of the industrial-scale brutality of modern war on the so-called home front.   This presentation coincided with a sustained push by the West German political establishment towards national rehabilitation, involving rearmament and the country's recent (in 1955) admission to NATO. The implications of Ledig's work regarding the contentious issues surrounding West German rearmament and militarism more generally were not particularly welcome to the instinctively rather conservative class of literary critics then dominating the "national" press.

In 2003, nearly fifty years later, Marcel Reich-Ranicki, himself widely seen as the doyen of a younger generation of literary critics, provided his own assessment of the media rejection that had greeted Vergeltung back in 1956:
At that time no one was interested in the war, in the war as a subject for a novel or a drama. That was Ledig's misfortune. And it was too bad, because one of the properties of his two important novels [Vergeltung and Die Stalinorgel] is the way that they do not spare the reader."Die Literatur ist dazu da, das Leiden der Menschen zu zeigen ("It is to show the suffering of the people that the literature is there"). Interview with Marcel Reich-Ranicki, by Volker Hage. In: Der Spiegel, 24. Juli 2003.

The book was republished in the Autumn/Fall of 1999 at the instigation of the influential literary critic/journalist Volker Hage. This followed a fundamental re-evaluation of post-war literature more generally that had become mainstream in the German speaking world, following a lecture given by Max Sebald in Zürich in 1997. By 1999 many attitudes had been completely reversed since the original publication of Vergeltung, which now met with a much more positive critical reception. In Die Zeit  expressly commended Ledig's "almost hammered out sentences" ("knapp gehämmerten Sätze") and the "breathlessness of the language" ("Atemlosigkeit der Sprache"). Stephan Reinhardt in Der Tagesspiegel attested to Ledig's "astonishingly dense realism".  writing in the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung was profoundly impressed by Ledig's „verzweifelte[r] Dokumentarliteratur“.

On 29 October 1999 Vergeltung was featured on the influential television programme . The programme had an audience of several million viewers in the German speaking world at the time, and Ledig's book was featured alongside the German language version of the bestseller Atomised (Elementarteilchen/Les Particules Élémentaires) by Michel Houellebecq, which must have contributed substantially to the subsequent popularity of Vergeltung. On 26 August 2005 an audio version of Vergeltung, produced by Klaus Prangenberg, was broadcast by Radio Bremen.

title: Dyego Sousa

text:
Dyego Wilverson Ferreira Sousa  (born 14 September 1989) is a professional footballer who plays as a forward for Spanish club AD Alcorcón.

He spent most of his career in Portugal, making 128 appearances and scoring 41 goals in the Primeira Liga for Marítimo, Braga and Benfica. In the second tier, he played 66 games and scored 13 goals for four clubs.

Born and raised in Brazil, Sousa made his international debut for Portugal in 2019 and was part of their squad that won the 2018–19 UEFA Nations League.

Club career

Early career
Born in São Luís, Maranhão, Sousa began his career at his hometown team Moto Club de São Luís' youth setup before moving to Sociedade Esportiva Palmeiras in 2005, aged 15. Released by the club in the following year, he subsequently joined C.D. Nacional's under-20 squad after a trial period.

Sent back to Brazil in the middle of 2008 to nurse an injury, Sousa never returned to Nacional. In 2009, he returned to Moto Club and made his senior debut on 19 February, starting in a 2–1 Campeonato Maranhense away loss against São José de Ribamar Esporte Clube; his first goal for the club came on 23 April, in a 2–2 draw against the same opponent.

On 13 November 2009, Sousa joined Operário Ferroviário Esporte Clube, and made his debut for the club the following 17 January, by starting in a 1–0 home win against Cascavel Clube Recreativo, for the year's Campeonato Paranaense. He scored his first goal for the club on 31 March, netting his team's second in a 2–2 home draw against the same opponent, but was released in April after scoring only two goals.

Leixões
In July 2010, Sousa moved abroad for the second time, again to Portugal, joining Leixões S.C. of the Liga de Honra. He made his professional debut on 8 August, starting in a 0–0 away draw against C.D. Trofense, for the season's Taça da Liga; his first goal abroad occurred on 10 November, in a 2–1 loss at F.C. Paços de Ferreira, also for the league cup.

Sousa contributed with three goals in 14 appearances overall, as his side finished sixth.

Interclube
In June 2011, Sousa switched continents again, signing for G.D. Interclube in the Girabola of Angola. However, he failed to make a single appearance during his time at the club, as his international certificate never arrived; he subsequently terminated his contract with the club in early 2012, but still remained six months without a club.

Tondela / Portimonense
Sousa returned to Portugal's second tier in July 2012 with C.D. Tondela, being a regular starter during the campaign and scoring four times. The following year, he moved to fellow second division side Portimonense S.C. on 11 June, in a deal for two seasons.

At Portimonense, Sousa scored braces in home wins against Atlético Clube de Portugal (4–0) and C.S. Marítimo B (2–1), finishing his only year with seven goals overall.

Marítimo
On 13 July 2014, Sousa signed a three-year contract with Primeira Liga club C.S. Marítimo. In his first season on the island of Madeira he scored twice, both in a 4–0 home win over Boavista F.C. on 30 November, but the following campaign he recorded 12 goals and made the top ten scorers of the year. He also started six matches in the club's Taça da Liga run, that ended on 20 May 2016 with a 6–2 loss to S.L. Benfica in the final at the Estádio Cidade de Coimbra.

In August 2016 in a friendly against Tondela, Sousa attacked a linesman, and was given a nine-month ban by the Portuguese Football Federation in November, which was rescinded by a court the following month.

Braga
Sousa and compatriot teammate Fransérgio agreed on 31 January 2017 to transfer to S.C. Braga at the end of the season by which point he would be out of contract; he signed a four-year deal and Marítimo secured a share of any subsequent transfer fee.

On 12 August 2018, in the season opener, Sousa was one of three players to score two goals in a 4–2 win at home to C.D. Nacional. He scored a hat-trick on 14 December in a 4–0 win over C.D. Feirense also at the Estádio Municipal de Braga.

Sousa and teammate Paulinho were joint top scorers with four goals in the 2018–19 Taça da Liga with four goals each, including a third-minute strike in the defeat to eventual champions Sporting CP in the semi-final. On 6 March 2019, he signed a new contract until 2022, and finished the league campaign as Braga's top scorer (joint fourth overall) with 15 goals.

Shenzhen
After rejecting bids of €12–15 million in January, Braga sold Sousa to Chinese Super League club Shenzhen F.C. for €5.6 million in July 2019. In his third game, he scored his first two goals in a 4–0 home win over Guangzhou R&F F.C. on 14 August to escape the relegation zone.

On 31 January 2020, Sousa returned to Portugal's top flight, joining S.L. Benfica on loan without the option to sign. He debuted eight days later in a 3–2 loss at FC Porto in O Clássico, replacing André Almeida for the last five minutes. He made 13 scoreless appearances for the team from Lisbon, including 14 minutes of their 2–1 loss to Porto in the 2020 Taça de Portugal Final on 1 August.

Sousa signed for F.C. Famalicão on 5 October 2020. After five games and no goals in two months, he rescinded his deal and went back to China.

Almería
On 31 August 2021, Sousa agreed to a one-year contract with UD Almería in the Spanish Segunda División. Playing mostly from the bench, he contributed 24 games and five goals to their title-winning season, starting with a hat-trick in a 4–1 win at CD Mirandés on his first start on 24 October.

Sousa signed a new contract in March 2022, lasting until 2024. On 14 August he made his La Liga debut in a 2–1 home loss to Real Madrid, as a 71st-minute substitute for Umar Sadiq.

On 9 August 2023, Sousa terminated his contract with the Andalusians.

Alcorcón
On 17 August 2023, Sousa joined AD Alcorcón also in the Spanish second division.

International career
On 15 March 2019, Sousa was called up to represent the Portugal national football team for the UEFA Euro 2020 qualifying campaign. He earned his first cap in a 0–0 draw against Ukraine on 22 March 2019 as a substitute replacing André Silva in the 73rd minute. He was part of Fernando Santos' squad that won the 2019 UEFA Nations League on home soil, but did not feature in either match.

title: Atherley Narrows Swing Bridge

text:
The Atherley Narrows Swing Bridge is a Canadian National rail bridge located at the confluence of Lake Simcoe and Lake Couchiching at the Atherley Narrows, near Orillia, Ontario.

The current bridge was constructed in 1970 as a plate girder bridge, consisting of nine steel through plate girder sections supported on eight steel pile bents. The western end of the east approach for the steel through plate girder structure is supported by a concrete pier on wooden piles built in 1919. The end of the eastern pier is made of concrete. Between 1843 and 1964, three railway bridges were constructed at the site and a navigation channel was dredged, all of which disturbed the Mnjikaning Fish Weirs. The swing bridge was deemed unsafe in a 2010 inspection by the railway. Reports to local police and the railway in 2011 declared that the wooden timber cribbing at the base of the swing bridge was decaying and shedding material into the water below.

As of 2013, the swing bridge is currently under review for use with the local trail system, as a link for pedestrian trails and snowmobile trails on both sided of the Narrows. The swing bridge is currently locked in the "open" position since the Canadian National Railway abandoned the line into Orillia and lifted the rails.

title: 1815 State of the Union Address

text:
The 1815 State of the Union Address was given by the fourth president of the United States, James Madison.  It was given to the 14th United States Congress on Tuesday, December 5, 1815, but not verbally by the president.  The War of 1812 was over, and he said, "It is another source of satisfaction that the treaty of peace with Great Britain has been succeeded by a convention on the subject of commerce concluded by the plenipotentiaries of the two countries. In this result a disposition is manifested on the part of that nation corresponding with the disposition of the United States, which it may be hoped will be improved into liberal arrangements on other subjects on which the parties have mutual interests, or which might endanger their future harmony."  He concluded with, "As fruits of this experience and of the reputation acquired by the American arms on the land and on the water, the nation finds itself possessed of a growing respect abroad and of a just confidence in itself, which are among the best pledges for its peaceful career."

title: Al-Busi

text:
Al-Bu`si, Busi, Bo'sī, ( Bu`sī), or the Bu`si Sheikhdom ( Mashyakhat al-Bu`sī), was a small state in the British Aden Protectorate. It was one of the states of Upper Yafa.

History
Busi was established around the 18th century.

Protectorate treaties were signed with the other states of Upper Yafa in 1903, but Busi was excluded and remained independent. Between 1903 and 1954, two different sheikhs of Busi, father and son, attempted to obtain a protectorate treaties, but Britain denied their applications on the ground that it was undesirable to multiply the number of treaty chiefs, among other reasons. Although Busi was not allowed to enter into the British protectorate, the Sheikhs were still entitled to an annual visit to Aden. The Sheikh of Busi was one of the rulers of South Arabian states attending the second Lahej conference in 1930.

In August 1954, a request for a protectorate treaty by the Sheikh of Busi was forwarded by Tom Hickinbotham, the Governor of Aden, to Alan Lennox-Boyd, the Secretary of State for the Colonies. In that year, Busi became the last of the Yemeni polities to enter into a protectorate treaty with Britain. In A History of Modern Yemen (2000), Paul Dresch notes that this treaty was virtually identical to the ones Britain had signed with Busi's neighbours 50 years earlier. Busi did not join the Federation of South Arabia in 1962, but was nominally part of the Protectorate of South Arabia.

Its last sheikh was deposed in 1967 upon the founding of the People's Republic of South Yemen and the area is now part of the Republic of Yemen.

Geography
The Busi country was a flat plain intersected by small valleys, the principal of which was the Wādī-ul-Ab'us. Busi was bordered by Al-Dubi in the west and Hadrami in the north. Busi had no border with the Mutawakkilite Kingdom of Yemen.

Demographics
Busi was inhabited by a single tribe of the same name. In 1917, it was estimated to have a population of around 2000. The plurality of the Busi, about 900 of them, resided in the settlement of Hazar-ul-Abu's, while the rest of them were spread out over 18 other villages in the vicinity.

Military
As of 1917, Busi had around 500 fighting men.

title: Dante Fowler

text:
Dante Antwane Fowler Jr. (born August 3, 1994) is an American football defensive end for the Dallas Cowboys of the National Football League (NFL). He played college football at Florida. Fowler was selected third overall by the Jacksonville Jaguars in the 2015 NFL Draft but missed his entire rookie season after sustaining an ACL tear. He would return the following season and played two more seasons for the Jaguars before being traded to the Los Angeles Rams in 2018. He would later sign with the Atlanta Falcons in 2020.

High school career
Fowler attended Lakewood High School in St. Petersburg, Florida, where he was a two-sport star in football and track. Fowler was named an honorable mention to the Sports Illustrated All-American football team following his senior season, and was selected to the 2012 Under Armour All-America Game. In track, Fowler competed as a shot putter, recording a top throw of 14.32 meters (47 ft).

College career
As a freshman at the University of Florida in 2012, Fowler moved to the outside linebacker position. Fowler played in all 13 games and started his first game against Missouri. He recorded 30 tackles, including eight for loss, and 2.5 sacks. He was named to numerous freshman all-American teams. In 2013, Fowler started all 13 games for the Gators and was named a team captain for the two final games of the season. He recorded 50 tackles, including 10.5 for loss, and 3.5 sacks. In 2014, he slimmed down from 277 to 261 pounds, in an effort to be a more explosive edge player for the Gators. He recorded 60 tackles, including 15 for loss, 8.5 sacks, and two forced fumbles, and was named a first-team All-Southeastern Conference selection by the conference's coaches. In his final game, the 2015 Birmingham Bowl vs East Carolina,  he recorded three sacks helping the Gators to the 28-20 victory.

On November 19, 2014, Fowler tweeted that he would leave the school with Will Muschamp, who announced he would step down as head coach. Fowler made his intentions to forgo his remaining eligibility and enter the 2015 NFL Draft.

Professional career

Jacksonville Jaguars

2015 season
Fowler was selected third overall by the Jacksonville Jaguars in the 2015 NFL Draft. On May 8, 2015, Fowler tore his ACL on the first day of mini-camp and missed the entirety of his rookie season. On May 12, four days after tearing his ACL, Fowler signed a fully guaranteed four-year, $23.5 million contract, with a $15.3 million signing bonus.

2016 season
After missing his entire rookie year due to his ACL injury, Fowler made his NFL debut on September 11, 2016, in the game against the Green Bay Packers, where he made three tackles (one for a loss) as the Jaguars lost the game 27–23.

Fowler ended his first official season playing in all 16 games with one start, recording 32 tackles, 4.0 sacks, and five passes defensed.

2017 season
On September 10, 2017, in the 29–7 season-opening road victory over the Houston Texans, Fowler had a stellar game. He had a 53-yard fumble return for a touchdown near the end of the first half. The touchdown was the first of his NFL career. Late in the third quarter, Fowler forced a fumble off of quarterback Deshaun Watson, which was recovered by teammate Yannick Ngakoue.

The Jaguars finished atop the AFC South with a 10-6 record. In the playoffs, Fowler recorded five tackles, two sacks, and a pass deflection before the Jaguars were defeated 24-20 by the New England Patriots in the AFC Championship Game.

2018 season
On May 2, 2018, the Jaguars declined the fifth-year option on Fowler's contract. On July 20, 2018, he was suspended for one game due to violating the league's personal conduct policy.

In December 2019, the NFLPA revealed that it had won a grievance filed on Fowler's behalf alleging that the Jaguars had improperly fined Fowler over $700,000 for not attending rehab and medical appointments in Jacksonville during the 2018 offseason. Under the collective bargaining agreement, these appointments should have been voluntary. This incident reportedly led to the firing of Jaguars football operations chief Tom Coughlin.

Los Angeles Rams

2018 season

On October 30, 2018, Fowler was traded to the Los Angeles Rams in exchange for a compensatory third-round selection (Quincy Williams) in the 2019 NFL Draft and a fifth-round selection in the 2020 NFL Draft, which ended up being used to select Collin Johnson. Due to a change to the 3-4 defense, Fowler moved to outside linebacker with the Rams. In 8 games of 2018, Fowler finished with 21 tackles, 2 sacks, a pass defended, and a forced fumble. In the playoffs, the Rams defeated the Dallas Cowboys in the Divisional Round and Fowler recorded 2 tackles and a sack. In the NFC Championship Game against the New Orleans Saints, Fowler recorded 5 tackles and 0.5 sacks in a 26-23 overtime victory to advance to Super Bowl LIII and Fowler made a huge play in overtime when he hit Drew Brees to set up an interception by John Johnson III. The Rams played the New England Patriots in the Super Bowl but lost 13-3. Fowler recorded 4 tackles in the loss.

2019 season
On March 11, 2019, Fowler signed a one-year, $14 million contract extension with the Rams.

In the season-opener against the Carolina Panthers, Fowler sacked Cam Newton twice as the Rams won on the road by a score of 30-27. During Week 7 against the Atlanta Falcons, he sacked Matt Ryan thrice in the 37-10 road victory. Three weeks later against the Pittsburgh Steelers, Fowler recovered a fumbled snap by center Maurkice Pouncey and returned it for a 26 yard touchdown in the 17–12 road loss. During Week 16 against the San Francisco 49ers, he sacked Jimmy Garoppolo 2.5 times during a 34–31 road loss.

Atlanta Falcons
On March 25, 2020, Fowler signed a three-year, $48 million contract with the Atlanta Falcons. He was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list by the team on November 14, 2020, and activated on November 25.

On October 22, 2021, Fowler was placed on injured reserve with a knee injury. On November 14, 2021, Fowler was activated from IR in time to be active for week 10 game versus Dallas Cowboys. He was released on February 16, 2022.

title: 1958 Federation of Rhodesia and Nyasaland election

text:
Federal elections were held in the Federation of Rhodesia and Nyasaland on 12 November 1958. The result was a victory for the ruling United Federal Party, with Roy Welensky remaining Prime Minister.

Electoral system
The Federal Parliament had 59 seats, of which four were elected by an African electoral college in the northern territories, two were nominated by governors in the northern territories, with one seat reserved for an elected European representing African interests. The remaining 52 were directly-elected using two electoral rolls; a general roll mainly consisting of Europeans and a special roll with a more representative population mix. The general roll included 83,506 Europeans and Coloureds, 2,876 Asians and 1,055 Africans, whilst the special roll included 137 Europeans, 25 coloureds, 23 Asians and 692 Africans. Thousands of eligible Africans did not register to vote.

The general roll elected 44 seats, 24 in Southern Rhodesia, 14 in Northern Rhodesia and six in Nyasaland. Both the general and special roll voted for eight African seats, four from Southern Rhodesia and two each from Northern Rhodesia and Nyasaland.

The single European seat elected to represent African interests was elected in Southern Rhodesia by members of both rolls.

Campaign
A total of 112 candidates contested 48 constituencies, with five seats in Nyasaland having only one candidate, all of whom were elected unopposed. The main contest was between the United Federal Party led by Welensky and the Dominion Party led by Winston Field. The UFP contested all 53 seats (including the five unopposed constituencies); the DP ran in 43 constituencies, the Constitution Party led by A Scott ran in eight constituencies, and the Confederate Party led by S Gurland contested a single seat in Salisbury. The remaining twelve candidates were independents.

title: The Historical Novel

text:
The Historical Novel is a 1924 book by Herbert Butterfield. It originated in an undergraduate essay and gained the Le Bas Prize for Butterfield. It was originally published by Cambridge University Press, one of the conditions for the prize.

Summary
The work was Butterfield's first publication. It developed from the embryo of a paper, presented to the Peterhouse History Society in the Michaelmas term, which he then expanded.

It examines the relationship between the form of the historical novel on the one hand and the formal study of history on the other. It explores the style of historical fictions, the way in which they engage with evidence (and how that differs from the orthodox historical method) and the extent to which such a form of writing affects mainstream historical scholarship itself.

Butterfield sees the historical novel as a form which is a kind of 'fusion' of other styles and approaches. In particular, he sees a potential in it for a form of historical empathy that can provide deep insights into the motivations behind the actions of historical protagonists such as Napoleon; it can also be used to marshal a sense of nationalistic or patriot feeling becoming, itself, a "maker of history" rather than merely a reflector or mirror of the past. One of its purposes, according to Butterfield, was to help us 'feel' a particular epoch of the past in ways in which traditional historical writing might not because of the different role and importance of the imagination in the case of the historical novel. Another important element of historical fiction for Butterfield was its role in bringing to light the existence of uncertainty in human affairs as lived by real people: the historian, in his view, tends to have a retrospective reach which draws out trajectories and processes over time, but the characters in a historical novel live as real human beings do, being only aware of probabilities and potential situations rather than knowing precisely where certain events and phenomena are headed.

The work did not display Butterfield's later detestation of the form of the historical novel; later on, moreover, he referred to the arguments in his first publication in disparaging terms, arguing that it was 'a bad book'.

The National Football League concussion committee was an NFL head, neck and spine medical committee from 2007 to 2010. Statements from the former co-chair Dr. Ira Casson on concussion and injury have received national attention. It is best known for its denial, against medical proof, of the existence of chronic traumatic encephalopathy and its link to football.

NFL research
In March 2007, Casson reported conclusions of research conducted by the NFL committee, denying that head injury is linked to long-term brain damage, depression, dementia, or any other serious brain disorder in NFL players.  He told the New York Times that research reporting the contrary conclusion was "virtually worthless". He left the NFL in 2010 and has been called "Dr. No" as a result of his one-word answers in a critical interview on the subject of football head trauma. Casson's statements have been roundly criticized by other physician experts in brain damage.
