title: Larva (TV series)

text:
Larva (also known as Larvae) is a South Korean 3D computer-animated show made by TUBA Entertainment in Seoul, South Korea. Its two main characters are a pair of two caterpillars named  Red and Yellow who never spoke, although they do make expressive sounds. The cartoon exists in their small world where miniature adventures occur.

Characters

Main
 Yellow - a tall dimwitted and happy-go-lucky yellow-colored caterpillar with an antenna who has a contentious friendship with Red. Although usually he obeys Red, he loses his mind in front of food. He changes color from yellow to brown and he grows dark green shades around his mouth when feeling extreme emotions.
 Red – a small hot-tempered and greedy red-colored caterpillar. Red has tried to steal Yellow's love interest, Pink, but he always ends up alone. He shrieks, shouts and screams when in anger, fear, frustration and in a horrible panic.

Recurring
 Violet – An oversized purple ghost slug. He has an exposed inner body and roar, showing his sharp teeth.
 Brown – An dung beetle that gathers dung. To him, dung is a treasure, though it makes his breath stink. He hates it when other insects touch his dungball. He has a long strand of hair on his right cheek.
 Black – A horned atlas beetle that has great strength and is usually punching a cocoon (which he uses as punching bag). He's aggressive and will beat up whoever he thinks is messing with him. In "Black’s Back" he turns out to be a slug wearing beetle armor.
 Rainbow – A lazy snail with a red and green shell. When in his shell, he moves slowly, but under that, he has a muscular human-like body and can function as humans do.
 Pink – A pink-colored caterpillar with two antennae. She loves Yellow and Yellow loves her as well, but her presence often causes conflict between him and Red, who has a one-sided crush on her. She hides a great strength behind her cute, beautiful face.
 Ivory - A stick bug with brown skin, Ivory has a very thin body with brown skin color. He has black eyes and darker colored areas by his eyelids. He has 2 antennae and little pink studs on. His girlfriend is Cocoa.

Minor
 Blue – A housefly that has numerous smells. Nobody can get close because of his repugnant smell. He often feels gloomy and lonely because nobody can approach him.
 Navy – A deep-sea fish appears when the sewerage is sunk. He appeared as a goldfish. When Red and Yellow threw him into a sardine can full of warm water, he changed into a deep-sea fish which is often seen whenever the sewer floods. He has a good enough appetite to eat up the caterpillars and other insects.
 Venus flytrap – A venus flytrap who eats up anything on the ground. In season 1, he is an enemy to all insects because he tries to swallow the other insects when he encounters them. But he is weaker than Violet. He appears to have a menacing set of teeth.
 Green (also known as Frog) – A frog which often appears in the sewer, is sensitive, and tries to monopolize all power by eating insects and larvae. He is several times bigger than other normal frogs. He escaped from the sewer and went into the house where Red and Yellow lived in season 2. In season 3, he lives on the streets along with Grey & the Silvers.
 Bee – A honey bee who collects honey. She stings when someone touches the honey that she collected or makes her angry.
 Maroon – A dachshund who wears a blue and yellow sweater who only appeared in season 2. He attacks when he sees moving things. He buries his valued bones in the ground and is quite temperamental. In "Whistle", he does certain things when he hears certain whistling.
 Prussian – A blue parrot which appears in season 2. He observes other friends and gives a sardonic laugh before attacking. He is also a predator to the caterpillars. "Nanta" revealed that he used to live in the Amazon rainforest as a hatchling.
 Prism – A chameleon which appears intermittently in various areas of season 2, such as the living room, bathroom, rooftop, and even bedroom; he suddenly appears and attacks Red and Yellow without reason.
 Ephemera – A mayfly who appears in the titular episode. Red has a crush on her, but she dies quickly due to the lifespan of an average mayfly.
 Bomber bug –  A bombardier beetle which bombed Yellow, Red, and Brown in the episode "Bomb Bug" in Season 2. He has the ability to bomb a place with acid which comes out from his bottom. He usually does that when he's angry, sad, or feeling disgusted.
 Grey – A rat that appears in season 3 and 5. He is an enemy to all caterpillars in this season.
 Silvers – A pigeon duo using food scraps (a banana peel and a carved-out half watermelon) to protect their super reflective heads from the sun, they are enemies of the larvae. Each pigeon communicates with one word, "Yah" for the pigeon wearing the banana peel, and "Huh" for the pigeon wearing the carved out watermelon. These pigeons only appear in Season 3.
 Cocoa - A creature of a indeterminate species that is Ivory's girlfriend.
 Mite  - A baby mite who Yellow initially adopts, but turns out to parasitically prey on Yellow and the others. Then Yellow leaves it in a zoo.
 Mud - A pair of fish. They live underground under the sands and can slap each other with their fins.
 Booby - A Blue-footed booby bird. He met the larvae when they landed on his island.
 Mango - A caterpillar Red has fallen in love with. When she first meets Red, she couples with him. When Red and Yellow escaped the island, she knew she had to leave her home to find her boyfriend, Her name is a fruit called a mango.
 Chuck (voiced by Eddy Lee) - A human. He is the first character who can speak properly, although previously other characters occasionally spoke on occasion if it fits the scene.

title: Nouka Baich

text:
Nouka Baich (, lit. Boat Race, also spelt Nowka Bais) is a traditional dragon boat-style paddling sport of Bangladesh and West Bengal in India. The Bangladesh Rowing Federation, established in 1974, is the authority of all rowing activities in Bangladesh and has organised over 40 National Rowing Championships. The races are held during the wet and autumn seasons of the Bengali calendar which corresponds from June to October in the Gregorian calendar. The "Nowka Bais" which takes place annually in Birmingham is a leading cultural event in the West Midlands, United Kingdom attracting not only the Bangladeshi diaspora but a variety of cultures. It is also the largest kind of boat race in the United Kingdom.

Common elements

Boats used for Nouka Baich are long with each team can consist from 7 to up to 100 members known as majhis. The persons rowing the boat are known as dari and the person steering the boat is called hali, he sits at the back end of the boat. Charandar is also part of the boat crew. He is a member of the organizing committee and ensures fair play.</ref name="Rangan"> Boats with motor engines are not allowed. Boats are usually named with attractive and boastful names displaying quality and speed. During inter-riverine competitions, teams are named after their respective 'home rivers'. It is also a social event, and it is common for the competitors to sing Sari gan folk songs as they compete during the race. A popular song is Ronger Nao Ronger Boitha, Ronge Ronge Bao (Cheerfully tune the colourful oars of the colourful boat).

History

With riverine Bangladesh's and West Bengal's geography being dominated by the world's largest delta, the country has over 230 rivers in its terrain. The rivers have played an important role in the livelihoods of the native Bengali people.

Common in rural areas, Nouka Baich is a very old tradition of the folk Bengali culture going back centuries. Its popularity in urban areas increased in the 18th century. The various Nawab families throughout Mughal Bengal were also known for organising races and the use of Sari gan started to become more popular.

Nouka Baich was also common during the British rule in the Sylhet region after the rainy season when much of the land goes under water. The long canoes were referred to as khel naos (meaning playing boats) and the use of cymbals to accompany the singing was common.

Boat variation

Different types of boats may be used in different parts of Bangladesh. Straight-back narrow timber boats known as koshas are used in Mymensingh, Pabna and Dhaka. The latter also uses goyna boats in its races. The use of sarangi boats is a tradition of Sylhet, Comilla and Brahmanbaria. Racing with Sampans is common in Chittagong, Cox's Bazar, Feni and Noakhali.

Outside Bangladesh and West Bengal (India)

The Rakhine Buddhists of Myanmar and some parts of Bangladesh also have a similar tradition called Pailong Poye.

In 2007, the British Bangladeshi community in Oxford initiated the first 'Nowka Bais' event in the United Kingdom as part of Oxfordshire County's 1000th birthday by getting two 40 ft canoes made in Sylhet, Bangladesh and bringing them to England. Nowka Bais in England has now become an annual cultural event attracting thousands such as the likes of the High Commissioner of Bangladesh.

In 2012, the event was dedicated to the Diamond Jubilee of Elizabeth II. Queen Elizabeth II issued a statement on the event and expressed her interest about the Bengali tradition to the founder of Nowka Bais UK and Oxford Bangladeshi Boat Club, Azizur Rahman.

In 2015, the event founder selected Birmingham to be its host city, which hosts a larger Bangladeshi diaspora population than Oxford. It has also become a mela (festival) with performances, stall and funfair rides. In 2018, The Nowka Bais short film documentary was released based on the events in Birmingham.

title: La Belle Station

text:
La Belle Station, also known as Labelle Downs, is a pastoral lease that operates as a cattle station in the Northern Territory of Australia.

The property is situated approximately  west of Batchelor and  south of Darwin. La Belle shares its eastern boundary with Litchfield National Park, Litchfield Station is to the south, the Delissaville-Wagait-Larrakia Aboriginal Land Trust is to the north, and the Timor Sea is to the west.

The property is composed of many land types. About one third is red dirt and sandy forest, of which about half has been cleared with some being converted to humidicola pasture. The remainder is highly productive marine floodplain covered in native wetland grasses such as hymenachne, rice grass, marine couch and cane grass, along with introduced grasses. Divided into 34 paddocks, it has an estimated carrying capacity of 14,000 head of cattle.

Originally a part of neighbouring Stapleton Station, La Belle was taken up by the Townsend family in 1962. In 2001, the  property was placed on the market by the Townsend family partnership. It was stocked with 10,500 head of Brahman cattle.

La Belle, along with Welltree Station, was sold by Peter Camm in 2008 for 72 million, during a land boom.

R. M. Williams Agricultural Holdings acquired the property, which it held until 2013 when the company went into receivership. Both La Belle and Welltree were then sold to the Australian Agricultural Company for 27.1 million.

title: Flair Software

text:
Casual Arts, formerly known as Flair Software, is a British video game developer and publisher of the 1990s that developed and published games for the Amiga, Amiga CD32, Atari ST, Commodore 64, DOS, PlayStation, Sega Saturn and SNES. It was set up by Colin Courtney in 1990 after his previous company, Tynesoft, went bankrupt. It retained Tynesoft's MicroValue brand and published Elvira: The Arcade Game which had originally been scheduled for publication by Tynesoft.

The company is mainly associated with popular and colourful Amiga games as Trolls, Oscar and Whizz. In 1993 platformer Oscar was bundled with Millennium's Diggers as launch bundle for the Amiga CD32 and it was considered one of the mascot games for the system. Flair Software's 1994 fighting game Dangerous Streets (that was a pack-in game for the CD32 later in its lifespan) is generally considered one of the worst games of all time.

The games Trolls and Oscar were remade and re-released in 2010 as Nintendo DSiware by Virtual Playground (part of the MicroValue group of companies) under the new titles Oscar in Toyland (since the Trolls licence couldn't be used any more) and Oscar in Movieland. In 2011 Virtual Playground also released two new original Oscar games (Oscar in Toyland 2 and Oscar's World Tour) for DSiware.

The company currently operates under the name Casual Arts and releases games for PC, Mac, Nintendo DS/3DS, iOS, Android and Kindle.

title: Salamat, Kaibigan

text:
Salamat, Kaibigan ("Thank You, Friends") is a privilege speech delivered by Ramon "Bong" Revilla, Jr. on the floor of the Senate of the Philippines on June 9, 2014, in response to charges being filed against him at the Sandiganbayan due to his alleged involvement in the Priority Development Assistance Fund scam.  It is one of two privilege speeches Revilla has delivered on the scam, with the other speech being delivered in January 2014.  In the speech, Revilla attempts to settle his differences with President Benigno Aquino III and his allies, claiming that they have a common interest in improving the Philippines, that there are more important issues that have to be tackled, and that he is not complicit in the scam.

Although Revilla claimed that he delivered the speech for the people, the reaction to the speech was largely negative, especially on social media, where netizens reacted with "amusement, anger and disbelief".  He later apologized to those who felt disgusted over his performance—in particular over a song he played towards the end of the speech—saying that the song, and the speech in general, was meant for his supporters rather than his critics, and he understands the reaction elicited online.

Public reaction
Public reaction to Salamat, Kaibigan was largely negative, in particular online.  On Twitter, users coined the hashtag "#BongPanes", a play on the song "Boom, Panes" by Vice Ganda, and even the office of President Benigno Aquino III agreed with the online reaction, where 99.93% of social media activity was averse to the speech, according to data collated by its social media team.  The Philippine edition of FHM even published an article that highlighted the types of handshakes Revilla used in the video.

title: Traum durch die Dämmerung

text:
"" ("Dream in the Twilight", literally "Dream through the twilight"), is both a German poem by Otto Julius Bierbaum and a  (art song) by Richard Strauss, his Op. 29/1. The opening line is "" ("Broad meadows in grey dusk"). It is the first of three songs by Strauss based on love poems by Bierbaum, composed and published in Munich in 1895, and dedicated to Eugen Gura. The works were scored for medium voice and piano, and published by Universal Edition as  (3 songs with piano accompaniment), later with English versions and orchestral arrangements.

Poem

"" first appeared in Berlin in 1892 in a collection known as  ("Experienced Poems") by Bierbaum that was published by Verlag von Wilhelm Issleib ("Wilhelm Issleib's Publishing House). Bierbaum dedicated the 217 page collection, with Traum durch die Dämmerung on page 130, to Detlev von Liliencron as he expressed in the personal foreword. A second edition of the collection appeared a year later.

In his anthology  (Poetry of Art Nouveau) Jost Hermand noted that the title is paradigmatic for the literature of the . The theme is a man going to meet a beloved woman, as in Johann Wolfgang von Goethe's 1771 poem "" (Welcome and Farewell). In Bierbaum's poem, he speaks in the first person.

"" is in two stanzas, each comprising five lines. The first line,  literally: "Wide meadows in twilight grey", was translated by Richard Stokes as "Broad meadows in grey dusk". The first line rhymes with lines 3 and 4, in both stanzas on "dark" vowels,  and , with line 4 repeating line 1. Line 2 rhymes with line 5 on a light vowel,  and . The term , a combination of  (twilight) and  (grey), repeated four times (in lines 1 and 4) contrasts with the final word  (light). The third line of the poem describes the walk to meet the woman in first person, after detailing meadows, twilight, the sun and the stars: "" (Now I go to the most beautiful woman). The subject notes that he is not in a rush: "" (I do not go fast). She is not described, but their relationship imagined as a "" (soft, velvety band), drawing him to "" (the love land), reaching a state of "" (mild blue light).

Composition and publication

Strauss composed  all three songs of Op. 29  on one day, 7 June 1895, the year after he married Pauline de Ahna and settled in Munich, the town of his birth.

Working as assistant conductor at the Munich court opera, he looked for a librettist for a possible opera project and contacted Bierbaum. While no opera came to pass, Strauss liked his poems and set several of them to music, among them the three songs of Op. 29 which he all wrote on 7 June. "" was followed by "" ("Longing Hearts" or "Beating Hearts") and "" (Nighttime Walk).

Strauss reportedly completed "" in the only 20 minutes his wife gave him before an errand. He scored the three songs, which all contemplate walking, for medium voice and piano, and dedicated them to Eugen Gura, a leading baritone of the court opera in Munich.

The songs were first published in Munich by Joseph Aibl. They were then published by Universal Edition. "" also appeared in English in a translation by John Bernhoff and Nelia Fabretto, in transpositions for low and high voice, and with an orchestral arrangement by Robert Heger.  Strauss quoted the music, along with several other early works, in the fifth section of his tone poem  Ein Heldenleben (A Hero's Life), Op. 40, completed in 1898, which is usually considered autobiographical in tone.

Music
A typical performance takes around three minutes. In the version for medium voice, the music of "" begins in F-sharp major. It is in 2/4 time and marked "Sehr ruhig" (very calm). The two stanzas are through-composed, with two slight changes to the text: Strauss added the word "hin" to the third line and changed the order of the adjectives in the last line. The song is completed by a modified repeat of the last three lines, this time in Bierbaum's word order.

The even time picks up the slow steps. The general marking for volume is pp (very soft), repeated several times, changed by a crescendo marking only twice, both times going back to pp. The accompaniment follows a similar pattern almost throughout the song: in one measure, the bass in the pianists left hand moves in dotted eighth notes, while the right hand regularly alternates triplet sixteenths and eighths, resulting in a subtle shift of accents, which has been described as a "trance-like mood". The voice enters after two identical measures, also moving in dotted eighth notes. The first motif is a three note stepwise descent (A sharp, G sharp, F sharp). It is immediately repeated on the word "". The text is mostly rendered simply, with only one note on each syllable. When the view changes in line 3 from observation of nature to the destination, the key shifts abruptly to B-flat major, and the word "schönsten" (most beautiful) is accented by a long high note. This climax of the first stanza is prepared by a crescendo, but again a sudden pianissimo. With the beginning of the second stanza, the key returns to F-sharp major, the melody is not identical but similar to the first stanza; the first motif appears one step higher, from B to G sharp, on "Dämmergrau", repeated on "Liebe Land". The line reaches a climax on "blaues" (blue). The text of the last three lines is repeated as a shortened version of a stanza, with the first motif in its second form this time on "gehe nicht schnell" and "eile nicht", with this emphasis on "not fast" marked "immer ruhiger (aber nicht schleppen)", which translates as "calmer and calmer (but no dragging)". The voice ends with a rising line, ending openly on C sharp, while the triplet movement stops, and the piano slowly repeats the final chord, marked ppp.

Settings by other composers
The poem "" inspired several other composers. Max Reger set the text to music as No. 3 of his Six Songs for Medium Voice, Op. 35, in 1899. Wolfgang Jordan inserted a setting to conclude  Träume. Acht Lieder für 1 Singstimme mit Pianoforte (Dreams. Eight songs for voice with piano), published in Berlin in 1899 by Deneke. "" was composed by Alfred von Sponer as the second of Drei Lieder für 1 mittlere Singstimme mit Pianofortebegleitung (Three songs for medium voice and piano accompaniment), Op. 12, published in Leipzig in 1899 by Rieter-Biedermann. Vítězslav Novák included a composition of the text in Erotikon, Op. 46 No. 2, published in 1912. Lutz Landwehr von Pragenau set it for baritone and piano as Op. 1/2 in 1979.

title: Paula (album)

text:
Paula is the seventh studio album by American singer Robin Thicke. The album's official release date was July 1, 2014, though it was streamed by Thicke's record company a day early, on June 30, 2014. The album, released by Star Trak Entertainment and Interscope Records, served as a tribute to his estranged wife Paula Patton. The album was supported by the single "Get Her Back".

Upon its release, Paula received mixed reviews from music critics. The album debuted at number 9 on the US Billboard 200 chart, selling 24,000 copies in its first week of release. The album sold only 530 copies in the United Kingdom, 550 in Canada, and 158 in Australia in its debut week.

Background
In 2005, Robin Thicke married actress Paula Patton after dating for over a decade. On February 24, 2014, the couple announced their legal separation, saying in a statement, "We will always love each other and be best friends, however, we have mutually decided to separate at this time." In the months following the announcement, Thicke made several attempts to repair their marriage and began dedicating his 2006 song "Lost Without U" to Patton during his concerts. He then premiered the song titled "Get Her Back", written about her, at the 2014's Billboard Music Awards, and a month later, he announced that the title of his seventh album would be Paula, after the actress. Thicke said of making and titling this album,

Composition
Paula is a concept album. The beginning of the song "Living in New York City" features Paula Patton saying, "I'm moving to New York". Thicke revealed that Paula contributed the brief recording of her voice as a favor and that the song was inspired by her making a similar statement to him previously.

Critical reception

Paula was met with mixed reviews from music critics. At Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 to reviews from critics, the album received an average score of 49, which indicates "mixed or average reviews", based on 11 reviews. Clover Hope of Billboard gave Paula a score of 64 out of 100, noting that Thicke and Patton's personal life makes the album interesting, while criticizing it for being too detailed. "'Paula' plays off how invasive and uncomfortable a celebrity breakup is — not just for the couple involved, but for those watching and, in this case, listening," Hope wrote. "Fans want to know, but maybe not this much." Alexa Camp of Slant Magazine gave the album two and a half out of five stars, criticizing "Get Her Back" for being reminiscent of an interlude and "Lock the Door" for "feel[ing] like an Unplugged version of a grander, more memorable song" (though praising its arrangement). She felt that "Black Tar Cloud" is a convincing apology, but criticized the song for its unflattering description of Patton.
Elysa Gardner of USA Today gave the album three out of four stars, stating that the album "reminds us what a fluid and expressive singer Thicke can be". Gardner went on to note that "the album is more texturally and emotionally varied and melody-focused than last year's Blurred Lines, with arrangements that nod heavily to old-school soul". Mikael Wood of the Los Angeles Times gave the album one and a half stars out of four, saying "the record is a failure, a virtual what-not-to-do guide for both songwriters and spurned lovers. But in an age when appearance rules, there’s something kind of fascinating about Thicke's willingness to look this bad."

Julia LeConte of Now gave the album one out of five stars, saying "Solidifying the theory that Thicke rushed the record together in a weird play for both public sympathy and capital gain, each song reeks of some other influence, the only real originality coming via the confessional and often TMI lyrics." Kyle Anderson of Entertainment Weekly gave the album a B−, saying "Paula's muddled take on sexual politics probably won't woo his wife back, and the lack of an obvious "Blurred"-size hit means the Hot 100 may be equally unmoved." Andy Kellman of AllMusic gave the album two out of five stars, saying "Some of the songs that could fit on any non-conceptual Thicke release sound like commissioned work. Take 'Living in New York City,' a distant descendant of James Brown's 'Living in America' and Janet Jackson's 'Nasty,' seemingly made for a visitors bureau, or the equally hammy 'Tippy Toes,' which could be used to sell a line of footwear. Those aren't the only numbers that resemble frivolous 'Hey, we need one more' throwaways. Along with empty flash like 'Something Bad' and 'Time of Your Life,' they're all part of Thicke's least appealing album." Ryan B. Patrick of Exclaim! gave the album a four out of ten, saying "From the uninspiring album cover to the angst-y content within, Paula doesn't even reach the level of his pre-"Blurred Lines" output, which represents an equitably solid discography of R&B/soul."

Commercial performance
The album debuted at number 9 on the Billboard 200 chart, with first-week sales of 24,000 copies in the United States. In its second week, the album dropped down 32 spots to number 41, selling 6,000 copies, bringing its total album sales to 30,000. In the United Kingdom, Paula debuted at number 200 on the UK Albums Chart, selling 530 copies in its first week. The album debuted at number 207 on the ARIA Albums Chart, having sold 158 copies in Australia that week. The album sold 550 copies in its first week in Canada.

title: John Wolryche

text:
John Wolryche (c.1637–1685) was a lawyer and politician of landed gentry background who represented Much Wenlock in the House of Commons of England in two parliaments of Charles II. He was a moderate Whig, opposing the succession of James II but avoiding involvement in conspiracies.

Background and education

John Wolryche was the 5th son, but 3rd surviving son, of

Thomas Wolryche of Dudmaston Hall, near Bridgnorth, a substantial landowner in south and east Shropshire. Initially a client of his uncle, Edward Bromley, Wolryche had been MP for Much Wenlock. He became an ardent royalist in the English Civil War and was military governor of Bridgnorth, before being sequestered and forced to compound for £730.
Ursula Ottley, daughter of Thomas Ottley of Pitchford, Shropshire. She was a sister of Francis Ottley, a key leader in the royalist seizure of power in Shropshire and military governor of Shrewsbury

John Wolryche was educated initially at the grammar school in Stone, Staffordshire. He was admitted as a pensioner, i.e. a fee-paying student, at Christ's College, Cambridge, aged 16, on 19 May 1653 – a fair guide to his birth date. He matriculated in the same year and went on to graduate BA in 1656-7.

Legal training and career

While he was still completing his Cambridge degree, Wolryche's name was entered on the admission register at Gray's Inn on 6 December 1655. This was an unusual choice for his family: his father, Edward Bromley, Francis Ottley and many other relatives were members of the Inner Temple. Unlike Sir Thomas, John Wolryche was not expecting to become a major landowner and took his legal studies seriously.

On 25 November 1661, the Pension or governing council ordered that Wolryche be called to the bar, as part of a large batch of students, on condition that he deposit £4 as surety for performing his bar moot. He seems to have taken chambers at his Inn: he was listed as occupying a room on the third storey of Cage's Buildings in 1668. In 1670 he received the degree of Doctor of Civil Law from Oxford University. In 1676 he was appointed recorder of Bridgnorth – a post he held until his death. On 26 November 1680 the Pension of Gray's Inn admitted him to the Grand Company of Ancients, its body of most learned and experienced members.

Landowner

Sir Thomas Wolryche had owned about 6,000 acres, centred on his seat of Dudmaston, at Quatt, to the south of Bridgnorth. The estates were destined for his eldest son, Francis Wolryche, but he was considered incapable of managing them because of mental illness. Hence Sir Thomas settled them on John in trust. Sir Thomas died in 1668 and John Wolryche obtained a private act of Parliament in 1673 to confirm his position. Dudmaston was a substantial property, probably a fortified manor house, rated for taxation purposes as having 24 hearths in 1673. John Wolryche began building a new house near Quatt church in the 1680s but it was not completed in his lifetime and ultimately became the dower house. The present hall was built for his son, Thomas, in the 1690s.

From 1668 Wolryche played a more significant role in the county, taking positions appropriate to his status as a prominent landowner. In 1669 he was made a freeman of Bridgnorth. The following year he became a Justice of the Peace. He was a commissioner for assessment, a key post in imposing taxation locally, from 1673–80. Like his father, he became a captain of the militia, a post that led to his appointment as a Deputy Lieutenant of Shropshire in 1683.

Political career

Candidate at Bridgnorth

Wolryche first stood for Parliament on 21 February 1679 at Bridgnorth, where he had been recorder, or chief legal official, a post which might have been expected to give him an advantage. However, in standing for election he was challenging the might of the Whitmores. Wolryche's father, Sir Thomas, had been a close friend and business partner of Sir Thomas Whitmore, 1st Baronet: Whitmore resided at Bridgnorth Castle while Wolryche was governor of the town. This association was not inherited by the next generation. Sir William Whitmore, 2nd Baronet had represented Bridgnorth in the House of Commons ever since 1661 and was to do so until his death in 1699: he regarded the borough seats as at his disposal. His brother, Sir Thomas Whitmore, had taken the second seat in a by-election in 1663, after a fierce contest, in which 182  new freemen were made in the six weeks before the poll. There seems to have been similar chicanery on this occasion, as Wolryche submitted a petition complaining of manipulation by the bailiffs after his defeat, but it was not reported.

The Whitmores were both broadly acceptable to the court and Thomas especially was reviled by Shaftesbury, who was working for the exclusion of Charles II's Catholic brother, James, Duke of York from succession to the throne. Wolryche stood explicitly for the "country party," opposed to the court.

MP for Much Wenlock

The short-lived Habeas Corpus Parliament of spring 1679 took the country further into political crisis and the king sought a way out of the impasse by calling for fresh elections in the summer. Wolryche had learnt from his earlier experience and decided to seek election elsewhere. Previously the Wolryche estates had been a key support to their parliamentary ambitions. Sir Thomas Wolryche had been MP in three parliaments for Much Wenlock, a constituency in which the Wolryches held two considerable estates: the large manor of Hughley and the nearby estate of Presthope. John too chose to try his luck electorally at Much Wenlock. At the February elections, Sir George Weld had stood in for his son, John, who was tainted by his support for the now disgraced Earl of Danby, and had been elected alongside the increasingly radical William Forester. Now Wolryche stood on slate with Forester, sharing electoral expenses, which totalled £124 9s. They used the same methods employed by their enemies, the Whitmores, having a large number of new burgesses enrolled. As a result, in an election held on 27 August, they defeated Weld and Sir Francis Lawley, 2nd Baronet. However, the parliament was prorogued and did not assemble until October of the following year.

In this Exclusion Bill Parliament, which lasted only three months, Wolryche was appointed to the important committee on elections and privileges, as well as a committee to investigate the Peyton affair. Sir Robert Peyton was a republican and member of the Green Ribbon Club, which had expelled him when he tried to reach a personal reconciliation with the Duke of York. Rash remarks he had made in the presence of Elizabeth Cellier then led to arrest for high treason, release, accusations of involvement in the "Meal Tub Plot", and subsequent appearance at the bar of the House of Commons. He was expelled from the House.

Wolryche was re-elected for Much Wenlock on 18 February 1681 and represented it in the so-called Oxford Parliament, which sat for just a week. Again he was accompanied by Forester, who was now deeply involved with Shaftesbury and the embryonic Whig party. He was once again named a member of the elections and privileges committee.

The Rye House Plot

The failure of the opposition to secure an exclusion bill was followed by the Rye House Plot, in which radical Whigs allegedly conspired to ambush the king and his brother. After the discovery of the plot in June 1683, Wolryche was one of the deputy lieutenants ordered to search for arms in Shropshire, despite his oppositional record. One of those implicated was Forester, who was found to have concealed a considerable quantity or arms and ammunition.

Death
Wolryche survived for only a few months into the reign of James II. He died of smallpox and was buried in St Andrew's church at Quatt on 17 June 1685. His heir was his eldest son Thomas. However, as his elder brother Sir Francis had no male heirs, Thomas succeeded to both the lands and the title on his death in 1688.

Marriage and family

Around 1670 Wolryche married Mary Griffith, daughter of Matthew Griffith (c.1599–1665). A militant and vituperative royalist, Griffith had been chaplain to Charles I during the civil war and was made master of the Temple Church in the reign of Charles II. Mary, according to her epitaph, was cultured and an accomplished singer and lutenist. She was about 33 years of age when she married Wolryche and was the widow of George Elphick, a Sussex landowner. She died in childbirth, aged 41, in 1678, and was commemorated by an impressive monument in Quatt parish church. She had already borne two sons, including Thomas, destined to become the third of the Wolryche baronets.

Gbiti is a border town in the East Province  in Cameroon.

Border post

On 16 November 2013, "unidentified gunmen from the Central African Republic (CAR)" attacked the Cameroonian border post at Gbiti. "Seven people died in the attack."

In 2013, the Kimberly Process’ Permanent Secretariat conducted an awareness campaign in the town about the importance of stopping the trade in blood diamonds, which could be used to finance Cameroonian gangs or political violence in the Central African Republic.

Refugee transit center
The town has been impacted by the refugees escaping the Central African Republic.

As of May 26, 2014, 21,451 refugees from have crossed into Cameroon, and been received at the Gbiti transit center.

Refugees assemble at the Gbiti transit center, and are transported to other locations, such as the refugee camp at Mbilé, located "four hours away by bus."

A YouTube video shot on a mobile phone by a relief worker in April 2014 documents a group of exhausted, malnourished people slowly crossing the river to enter Gbiti. Many refugees have suffered severe injuries in attacks by CAR Anti-balaka rebels. One seven-year-old boy arriving with severe machete injuries was saved by treatment at the nearest hospital, located in Bertoua, three hours' drive away.
