Will Varley began playing open mic nights in London in the early 2000s, setting up his own nights in the Grey Horse, Kingston with friends Tom Farrer and Nick Marks. He was a regular at numerous venues including The Half Moon, Putney and the 12 Bar Club and would often play different open mics seven nights a week. During this time he shared stages with acts including Jamie T, Bastille and The Vaccines. In 2010 he moved to Kent and set up Smugglers Records with the band Cocos Lovers. He released his debut album Advert Soundtracks through his own label in 2011 and toured the album on foot.

In September 2013 his second album As The Crow Flies was released and garnered positive reviews & was described as "Excellent" by Q magazine. The album received airplay on BBC Radio 3, Radio 6 & XFM.

In an interview on BBC Introducing in March 2014, Varley announced he would be embarking on another walking tour in May, this time travelling the entire south coast of England. The Rambling Tour saw Varley walk almost 500 miles with a guitar on his back, playing 24 shows along the way.

During an interview with Steve Lamacq on BBC6 Varley said he was working on new material and was aiming to release a third album in early 2015.

On 29 March 2015 Varley signed a record deal with Xtra Mile Recordings while backstage at The Royal Albert Hall shortly before taking to the stage to open for Frank Turner. A new digital only EP Will Varley Live at The Lighthouse was released in May 2015 to coincide with Varley's spring tour of the UK. The EP reached number 19 in the iTunes singer/songwriter chart and national radio play from XFM's John Kennedy. Soon after the record was released it was announced that Varley would be supporting The Proclaimers on thirteen dates across the UK.

Varley's third album Postcards from Ursa Minor was released on Xtra Mile Recordings on 30 October 2015. The Independent described it as a "gem of a record".

The song has since been streamed almost 6 million times on Spotify. It was later included on NPR's Austin 100 list for the annual SXSW festival.

On 9 February 2018 The Spirit of Minnie was released on Xtra Mile Recordings, reaching number two in the iTunes Singer Songwriter charts in the UK, number three in Germany and making the top 30 in the US. The album was produced by legendary record producer Cameron McVey and mastered by Frank Arkwright at Abbey Road Studios, London. It differs from previous Varley albums as it was recorded with a full band. The UK leg of the album tour culminated with a show at London's 2000 capacity Shepherd's Bush Empire.

The album's lead single "Seven Days" was featured on Channel 4's Sunday Brunch. The album was reviewed favourably, with The Times describing Varley as being at his "Lyrical Best" and Clash Magazine saying the album "Evokes the likes of Bright Eyes, Springsteen and Dylan effortlessly."

A week later Varley began a three-week tour of the US opening for label mates Skinny Lister, before returning to Europe in April for a headline tour, selling out shows across Germany and The Netherlands. May 2018 saw Varley and his band in residence with John Kennedy at Radio X, recording live tracks at Radio X Studios, London which were broadcast nationally over the following week.

In July 2018 Varley was invited to perform at Fairport Convention’s Cropredy festival by members of the original band. This marked his biggest show to date, performing in front of some 10,000 festival attendees. That summer he also made appearances at Bearded Theory Festival, Green Man, and his own Smugglers Festival, amongst others.

In Autumn 2018 Varley self released his first live album Live at Shepherds Bush Empire. The album was well received and has been streamed on Spotify over half a million times since its release. Autumn also saw Varley opening for The Proclaimers again in the UK and touring the UK and Europe as a headline act, selling out numerous shows across the UK, Germany, Netherlands, Denmark, Switzerland and Austria. During this tour Varley also played his first ever shows in Poland, Italy and France.

In March 2019 during his showcase at Stephen F's Hotel in Austin, TX Varley announced he had parted ways with Xtra Mile Recordings. In June 2019 Varley embarked on his first headline tour of the US, playing 11 shows across the Midwest and the East Coast, including sold out shows in New York, Boston and Wisconsin.

In September 2019 Varley said on social media that he had been working on new material and would be playing new songs at an intimate show at the 200 capacity London venue, The Lexington in November. The show sold out in 90 minutes.

title: Peter Cunneen

text:
Peter Cunneen (5 July 1926 – 24 November 2007) was an Australian speedway driver who competed during the 1950s and 1960s. He won the Australian Speedcar Championship in 1965.

Career

Peter Cunneen raced during a golden age for speedway at the Sydney Showground – a time when crowds regularly exceeded 30,000 people  – and competed in an incredible 247 feature races at the famous arena, more than any other driver in history.  Known for his skilful driving and consistency, Cunneen amassed 18 wins, 23 seconds and 29 thirds at the Showground during his career.

Cunneen began his speedway career in the mid-1950s and quickly established himself as one of the country's elite drivers. In 1957, he took 4th place in the NSW Championship, 7th in the Australian Championship and 2nd place in the World Derby. Higher honours did not elude him for long as he claimed both the NSW and QLD Speedcar Championships in 1958.

In 1961, Cunneen competed in the World Derby amongst a host of the era's biggest stars, including state champions, Jack O'Dea (Victoria) and Bruce Rickard (South Australia), and international drivers, Bob Tattersall (USA) and Leroy Warriner (USA). Starting from near the back of the field, Cunneen fought his way through the star-studded line-up to establish a commanding lead. He appeared certain to snare the title when, entering the final lap, a pin sheared in his steering box, sending him careening into the wall of the arena and resulting in one of the most spectacular crashes in Australian Speedway history. Cunneen was thrown from his car, but remained attached to the somersaulting vehicle by his lap belt. Remarkably, he was not seriously injured.

In 1965, at the height of his powers, Cunneen edged out Lew Marshall to become the inaugural winner of the Craven Filter Australian Speedcar Championship.  This was the first championship that required drivers to compete across the country  and, subsequently, it is considered by some to be the first 'true' Australian Speedcar Championship.  In the same year, Cunneen was named as Australian Motorsports Driver of the Year.

Cunneen retired from speedway racing in 1969.

title: Ekke Nekkepenn

text:
Ekke Nekkepenn (also Eke Nekepen, besides other various spellings) is a North German legendary figure. In the middle of the 19th century, the local researcher, folklorist, and graphic artist Christian Peter Hansen (1803–1879) portrayed Ekke Nekkepenn as a merman who lives with his wife Rahn at the bottom of the North Sea and plays mischievous tricks on seafarers and residents of the North Frisian Islands. In Theodor Storm’s 1866 published fairy tale "The Rain Maiden", a little man of fire with the name Eckeneckenpen appears and casts evil spells to make the fields wither.

C. P. Hansen's Meerman Ekke Nekkepenn
Today's well-known depiction of Ekke Nekkepenn goes back to Christian Peter Hansen, who retold various legends from the island of Sylt in his 1858 book Frisian Tales And Legends. One of the stories is titled "The Merman Ekkehard Nekkepenn."

The story begins when Ekke Nekkepenn asks the captain, whose England-bound ship runs into a storm, to help with the birth of his child. The beautiful and helpful wife of the captain is led by the merman to his home at the bottom of the North Sea, where his wife Rahn was. After a successful birth, she is returned to the surface of the sea, bringing gold and silver. The captain and his wife continue their journey and later, arrive safe and sound to their home of Rantum on Sylt. Several years later, Ekke Nekkepenn remembered this incident and decides – now that Rahn has become "old and wrinkly" – to take the captain's wife as his own. When he sees the Rantumer Captain's ship one day, he persuades Rahn, who's sitting on the seabed, to grind salt, and the resulting powerful vortex pulls down the Sylt ship along with its crew.

On the way to the captain's wife, Ekke Nekkepenn, who has turned into a handsome sailor, meets their young daughter Inge at Rantum's beach. Against her will, he places a gold ring on each of her fingers, hangs a gold chain around her neck, and declares her his bride. When the girl tearfully asks him to release her, he replies that he could do this only if she could tell him his name the next night. But no one on the island knows the stranger. As Inge walks along the beach in despair the next evening, she hears at the southern time at Hörnum a voice from the mountain, who sings:

Today I want to brew;
Tomorrow I will bake;
The day after tomorrow the wedding I’ll make.
My name’s Ekke Nekkepenn,
My bride is Inge Rantum,
And no one knows when I’m alone.

In Styl Fresian:

Then she returns to the arranged meeting place and calls the arriving stranger: "Your name is Ekke Nekkepenn and I remain Inge from Rantum." Because of this, the foolhardy merman cherishes a rage against the residents at Styl and lets loose whenever he feels like it.

Ekke Nekkepenn and Nordic Mythology
C.P. Hansen already dealt in the context of his work on The History of the Friesian Uthlande (1856) with Nordic mythology and reached his own conclusions in Leipzig in 1847 from the published work The Nordic Myth Book After a Series of Lectures from Carsten Hauch (1790–1872).

In his 1850, published "Materials on a Frisian Mythology" Hansen wrote: "The god of the sea was called by the Germans Ögis, by the Danes Eiger, by the Frisians Eie or Eia, also Ekke or Nekke… His wife was the goddess Ran, who blessed the beach, pulled castaways in her nets, and is perhaps where the dun village of Rantum gets its name. ‘Rane’ means incidentally in Nordic as much as ‘to rob.’ According to one Frisian legend Ekke tried to marry a Rantum woman named Inge but got a refusal."

In fact, all of these references produced by Hansen were demonstrated convincingly by Willy Krogmann in his afterword to a Volume of Sylt Legends 1966 to be errors. Neither can the place name Rantum be traced to the Old Norse word Ran, nor is there evidence of an etymological connection between the name of the Norse sea god Ægir and the word "Ekke." Therefore, Krogmann refers to the character Ekke Nekkepenn as Hansen's invention. Among the produced references from Hansen to an old-Nordic goes Ran Krogmann clarified: "Just like the sea god Ekke Nekkepenn, Hansen also invented the sea goddess Raan, or as he writes, Raand."

Regarding the Genesis Story: Hansen’s Depiction
Hansen's "The Meerman Ekke Nekkepenn" is based on two different legends between which there was no original connection. The first part of the story is based on a legend of a water man (Krogmann, Sylt Legends, Nr. 36, p. 17), while the second part is a North Friesian variant on the well-known Rumpelstiltsken fairy tale (Krogmann, Nr. 27, p. 13). The original water man saga resembles in many features Hansen's depiction, but ends with the safe return of the captain's wife on board their ship. Hansen linked the tales together by making the original dwarf the "merman" Ekke Nekkepenn.

Assuming that the name of the character goes back to the same period as the Rumpelstiltskin tale, it may be that the relationship of name component Nekke is connected to the Old High German , , or , old English , and old Nordic . These mean "water spirit" or "water monster" and are also Niss, Neck, or Nöck and are known in their female form as Nixe, who in turn are not related to the Rumpelstiltskin tale. The name would then play on the onomatopoeia of Ekke. Thus it is likely that Hansen was inspired by the harmony in melding the two tales. Eckeneckepenn as Fire Man in Storm's Tale "The Rain Maiden."

Only eight years after the publication of Hansen's legends and stories, Theodor Storm used the substance of the Rumpelstiltskin dwarf in his fairy tale "The Rain Maiden" and depicted him as a malicious goblin. While Hansen's is a merman Storm makes Eckeneckepenn a fire man, who makes fields wither with his magic spells.

title: David Francis Hickey

text:
David Francis Hickey, S.J. (December 3, 1882 – August 24, 1973) was an American-born bishop of the Catholic Church. He served as the Vicar Apostolic and then the first Bishop of Belize, from 1948 to 1957.

Early life
Born in St. Louis, Missouri, on December 3, 1882, David Hickey was ordained a priest for the Society of Jesus (Jesuits) on June 27, 1917. He came to the Belize mission in 1926 and served as principal at St. John’s College, pastor of the Cathedral, Jesuit superior, and vicar general. While Jesuit superior he fostered group action to attain economic security through education and Catholic social action. He attended the first Mission Institute in St. Louis that offered an intensive study of credit unions, cooperatives, and rural life programs. As Mission superior he encouraged Frs. Marion M. Ganey and Henry Sutti in their foundational work with credit unions and cooperatives in Belize.

Titular bishop
On June 10, 1948, Pope Pius XII appointed Hickey as Titular Bishop of Bonitza and Vicar Apostolic of Belize (British Honduras). He was consecrated a bishop by Archbishop Joseph Ritter on September 21, 1948, with principal co-consecrators William McCarty of Rapid City and Edward Daly of Des Moines. Hickey presided over a vicariate where, in 1949, 35,263 of 59,220 inhabitants (60%) were Catholic. There were 9 parishes and 109 mission stations, 28 priests of which 24 were Jesuits, and 96 religious Sisters. Sixty-three schools run by the Catholic church had a total of 7,039 students.
Besides the usual circuit of confirming the faithful and the construction of churches and schools, he fostered the spread of the credit union and cooperative movement which became an ecumenical venture in Belize and beyond.  In the Holy Year 1950 Hickey encouraged Crusades of Prayer that injected new life into “the cooperative movement, the St. Vincent de Paul Society, the Boy Scouts, and into the various educational activities.”

Diocese
Bishop Hickey saw toward the end of his episcopacy the raising of Belize from vicariate status to that of a diocese. It would no longer be a mission church under patronage of the Congregation for the Evangelization of Peoples but became a diocese with its own bishop. For the occasion of Hickey’s installation as first Bishop of Belize on February 29, 1956, papal nuncio Archbishop Luigi Raimondi visited Belize.
The following year, at seventy-four, Hickey submitted his resignation and it was accepted effective July 13, 1957. On March 13, 1958, Robert Louis Hodapp, SJ, was named his successor and second Bishop of Belize.

title: American Men Vol. 1

text:
American Men Vol. 1 is the first compilation album by People Under the Stairs. It is a combination of outtakes from the group's first two albums (The Next Step & Question in the Form of an Answer), songs produced for other local Los Angeles recording artists (including future Living Legends artists, Murs & Scarub), and one live track from the 2000 Glastonbury festival.

Release
The album was self-produced and assembled by Thes One and Double K, and it was handed out at a small number of live shows during their 2000-2001 world tour in support of Question in the Form of an Answer.

Transportation among the various shows along the tour was not included in their tour deal, so People Under The Stairs were responsible for getting to each show, which meant carrying all their own equipment as well. Eventually, hauling the extra weight in merchandise (including the American Men Vol. 1 CDs) became too difficult, so midway through the tour, Thes One and Double K were forced to unload them in bulk on a middle-man who sold them to various stores in the United Kingdom.

As a result, while the group still considers it a part of their main discography, this compilation is the rarest and most sought-after album in the People Under The Stairs catalog.

Track listing
All songs written by Christopher "Thes One" Portugal and Michael "Double K" Turner, except where noted.

Tracks 1-3 were outtakes from Question in the Form of an Answer (2000).
Track 4 was an unused radio promo for a Los Angeles radio station (also known as "Underground Run" on later multi-artist compilations).
Tracks 5-11 were outtakes from The Next Step (1998).
Tracks 12-15 were PUTS-produced tracks for other recording artists.
Track 16 was recorded live at the Glastonbury festival in the UK in front of 10,000 people. This is a live version of the b-side, "Live At The Fishbucket, Pt. 1", from the 12" single of "The Next Step II".

The 1980 United States presidential election in New Hampshire took place on November 4, 1980, as part of the 1980 United States presidential election, which was held throughout all 50 states and D.C. Voters chose four representatives, or electors to the Electoral College, who voted for president and vice president.

New Hampshire was won by the Republican nominees, former actor and Governor Ronald Reagan of California and former CIA Director George H.W. Bush of Texas. Reagan and Bush defeated the Democratic nominees, incumbent President Jimmy Carter of Georgia and his running mate incumbent Vice President Walter Mondale of Minnesota. Also in the running was former Republican Congressman John B. Anderson of Illinois, who ran as an Independent with former Ambassador and Governor Patrick Lucey of Wisconsin.

Reagan took 57.74% of the vote to Carter's 30.95%, a margin of 29.39%. Anderson finished in a relatively strong third for a third party candidate, receiving 12.94% of the vote.

The already embattled incumbent Democratic president Carter was hurt in the state by the strong third party candidacy of John Anderson, a liberal Republican Congressman who ran in 1980 as an independent after failing to win the Republican Party's own presidential nomination. Anderson proved very popular with liberal and moderate voters in New England who normally leaned Democratic but were dissatisfied with the policies of the Carter Administration and viewed Reagan as too far to the right. The defection of these voters would push Carter below 30% of the vote and greatly widen Reagan's margin of victory over Carter in New Hampshire. New England overall would prove to be Anderson's strongest region in the nation, with all 6 New England states giving double-digit percentages to Anderson. In fact, New Hampshire would prove to be Anderson's fourth strongest state in the nation after Massachusetts, Vermont and Rhode Island, his 12.94% of the vote in the state was nearly double the 6.61% he got nationwide.

New Hampshire in this era normally leaned Republican; in 1976, the state had been won comfortably by moderate Republican Gerald Ford, who took 54.75% of the vote to Carter's 43.47%, a GOP victory margin of 11.28%, even as Carter narrowly won the election nationwide.

However the challenger Reagan would prove to be unusually popular among New Hampshire voters. Reagan won most Northeastern states by single-digit margins and with pluralities of less than 50% of the vote, potentially making Anderson, who took double-digit support, a spoiler that cost Carter victories in many of these normally liberal states. In neighboring Vermont, Reagan won the state with only 44% of the vote and a margin of 5.96%. Reagan won neighboring Maine by an even smaller 3.36% margin. Relative to the nation, Vermont would trend Democratic by 17 points and Maine would trend Democratic by over 9 points in the 1980 election. However, New Hampshire, sandwiched in the middle, had a unique conservative streak to its politics for a Northeastern state. New Hampshire would ultimately be the only state in New England to give Reagan an absolute majority of the vote, with a commanding 57.74%. The state would trend 6 points toward the GOP relative to the nation in the 1980 election.

Results

Results by county

Analysis
On the county map, Reagan swept all 10 of New Hampshire's counties, the only state in the Northeast to have all of its counties give majorities to Reagan. Reagan broke 60% of the vote in 3 counties.

One notable county result in 1980 that reflected both Reagan's unique popularity in New Hampshire as well as Carter's 15-point drop in support in the state relative to 1976, was the result in rural Coos County in the far north of the state. In 1976, Ford had won the state comfortably while winning 9 out of the state's counties, while Carter had scored one county win with a 51–49 victory in Coös County. Carter's sole county win in 1976 would swing so dramatically as to be one of only 3 of the state's 10 counties to give Reagan more than 60% of the vote in 1980, as Reagan received 60.08% of the vote in Coös County.

Reagan's decisive victory in New Hampshire would make the state 7% more Republican than the national average in the 1980 election.

title: Muscota Marsh

text:
Muscota Marsh is a one-acre public park in the Inwood section of the borough of Manhattan in New York City, on the shore of Spuyten Duyvil Creek, a section of the Harlem River. It is adjacent to the much larger Inwood Hill Park and Columbia University's Baker Athletics Complex.  The park is notable for its views and for its ecological conservation features.

"Muscota" comes from a Lenape word meaning "place of rushes" or "place in the reeds". Muscota Marsh is unusual for having both a freshwater marsh and a salt marsh in such a tiny area.  Besides attracting plant and animal life, these wetlands are intended to help filter rainwater runoff and thereby improve the water quality of the river.  Other facilities include a dock for kayaks and canoes, benches, and walking paths.   A wooden deck overlooking the river provides views of Inwood Hill Park, the Henry Hudson Bridge, and the New Jersey Palisades.

Opened to the public in January 2014, the park was constructed by Columbia University as part of a deal to construct the new Campbell Sports Center within its adjacent athletics complex.  It was designed by James Corner Field Operations, which also worked on Manhattan's High Line.  It is cooperatively administered by the New York City Department of Parks and Recreation and Columbia, with the university providing maintenance and security.

title: This Is What I Do (Boy George album)

text:
This Is What I Do is a 2013 album by Boy George, produced by Richie Stevens. With this release, it was the first time since the mid-1990s that a sober George had taken the time to complete a full-length album. It gained positive reviews, with The Guardian calling it "the best comeback of the year". It was Boy George's first solo album to reach the UK Top 40 since his 1987 debut Sold.

Three songs, with videos, were selected as promotional tracks for the album; "King of Everything", "My God" and "Nice and Slow".

To promote the album, George undertook a UK tour in November 2013 featuring support from self-styled "Flock Rock" band The Featherz, whose lead singer/guitarist Danie Cox appeared in the videos for "King of Everything", "My God" and non-album single "I'm Coming Home".  A further tour took place in April 2014. George said in an interview in October 2013 that the music of the 70s, when he was discovering music for the first time, left a huge imprint on his soul and that this album is quite 70s in attitude and sound.

A dub version of the album, called "This Is What I Dub Volume 1", was first shared on SoundCloud in 2015. It appeared as a limited cd in 2020, on BGP (Boy George Presents records) and on the major streaming services. It features many collaborators, like Sinead O'Connor and George Clinton.

title: Alexander Ryvchin

text:
Alexander (Alex) Ryvchin (born 18 July 1983) is an Australian author, advocate, media commentator, and lawyer.

Biography
He was born in Kiev, Ukraine and migrated to Australia as a refugee. He practised law at Mallesons Stephen Jaques in Sydney and Herbert Smith in London before serving as a spokesman for the Zionist Federation UK and being awarded an Israel Research Fellowship. His writing on the Arab–Israeli conflict and Jewish history has been published in numerous international newspapers, including The Australian, The Sydney Morning Herald, The Guardian, The National Post, and The Jerusalem Post. Ryvchin is a regular columnist for The Spectator.

Author
Ryvchin is the author of two books on Israel. His debut book, The Anti-Israel Agenda - inside the political war on the Jewish State (Gefen Publishing House, 2017), is a collaborative work with other prominent thinkers on the Israel-Palestinian conflict including Alan Dershowitz, Colonel Richard Kemp, Hillel Neuer and Professor Alan Johnson. It was lauded by former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee as "the most important book on Israel since Alan Dershowitz's "The Case for Israel".

In May 2019, Ryvchin announced the upcoming release of his second book, titled "Zionism - The Concise History".

Critic
Ryvchin is an outspoken critic of the anti-Israel movement referring to its activists as "self-righteous westerners" with "pretensions to heroism" who seek "redemption" by "slaying the Zionist beast".

He has been a staunch critic of Palestinian terrorism, corruption and rejection of a negotiated end to the conflict with Israel.

He has spoken publicly of his love for Australia and his support for multiculturalism and integration which Ryvchin argues requires that "we accept the duty to uphold the freedoms granted to us and to protect the values underpinning our society – values such as democracy, tolerance, mutual respect."

Television guest
He is a frequent guest on US, Israeli and Australia media. In May 2013, Ryvchin was appointed Director of Public Affairs at the Executive Council of Australian Jewry and was promoted to co-Chief Executive Officer in 2018, becoming one of the youngest professional leaders in the Jewish world.

title: Rembangan

text:
Rembangan is a tourist attraction in Jember, East Java. Located at the foot of Mount Argopuro, the complex is known for its panoramic views and dragonfruit orchards.

Location and facilities

Rembangan is located approximately  north of Jember City, at the foot of Mount Argopuro. It consists of  of land at an altitude of  above sea level. The average temperature is between  and . Administratively, it is part of Kemuning Lor Village, Arjasa District, Jember, East Java. The site is managed by the Jember regional government.

The road to Rembangan has many dragonfruit orchards along it. There are also several coffee plantations in the area, which are open to the public on working days.  there is no public transport to the peak, although motorcycles or cars can be rented for the journey. The road, with its many turns and sharp drops, is dangerous for large busses, and fatal accidents have occurred; one, in 2002, caused the deaths of 22 passengers.

In Rembangan there is a hotel, built during the Dutch colonial period, which has 41 rooms. The hotel and its environs, including a pool and gardens, are used for rest and relaxation. On the grounds of the hotel is a dragonfruit orchard with approximately 600 plants; the fruit may be picked, for a fee; the area's dragonfruit is among the most commons souvenirs bought there. The hotel provides accommodations for tourists as well as conferences, seminars, and workshops. Other facilities include a spring, for bathing.

The view from the peak is considered Rembangan's greatest attraction. Laili Damayanti of Tabloid Nova writes that the night-time view is the more popular one, and Icha Rahmanti of The Jakarta Post describes the view as "terrific".

History
During the 2012 Christmas holiday, Rembangan was one of Jember's most popular tourist attractions, together with Papuma Beach and the Sukorambi Botanical Garden.

In 2013 the Jember police, following up on complaints that temporary food kiosks on the road to Rembangan were being used for "immoral" ("asusila") activities, began removing these stalls.

title: Bert Pronk

text:
Bert Pronk (24 October 1950 – 15 March 2005) was a Dutch road cyclist who won the Tour de Luxembourg and Ronde van Nederland in 1977. He rode Tour de France in 1976, 1977, 1979 and 1980 with the best achievement of 12th place in 1977.

A few years before his death he was diagnosed with cancer, but seemed to fully recover and resume his sport activities. He died suddenly while on vacations in Portugal.

1980 Tour team time trial disaster
The 1980 Tour de France had an early TTT. The prologue was the day before, and in the morning the riders had had a stage of 133 km (83 mi). Bert Pronk had jumped ahead, riding in the breakaway. That helped Jan Raas to win the stage. Pronk didn't recuperate fast, and like every TI–Raleigh rider who was not a TT specialist, or had a bad day, he did fear the TTT that afternoon.

Pronk followed the team custom of pulling as long as he could, but he dropped off early in the 46 km (29 mi) long race. When your team is one of the last to start, there are not a lot of cars or teams behind you to pull yourself up to. TI–Raleigh won, but went so fast, that Pronk finished outside the time limit. He went home after two days in the Tour, and had to watch Joop Zoetemelk's victory from the couch.

title: Consolatio (Cicero)

text:
Consolatio (; Consolation) is a lost philosophical work written by Marcus Tullius Cicero in the year 45 BC. The work had been written to soothe his grief after the death of his daughter, Tullia, which had occurred in February of the same year. Not much is known about the work, although it seems to have been inspired by the Greek philosopher Crantor's ancient work De Luctu ("On Grief"), and its structure was probably similar to a series of letter correspondences between Servius Sulpicius Rufus and Cicero.

Fragments of the work survive, having been quoted by Lactantius, and Jerome makes note of the work in a consolatory letter to Heliodorus of Altino. A popular piece of writing until its loss, the Consolatio is widely accepted as the distinct work that transmitted the earlier consolatio literary tradition to the Romans of the late Republic. In 1583, Italian scholar Carlo Sigonio claimed to have discovered a non-fragmentary version of the Consolatio, although most scholars now agree that this work was a fake, with modern stylometric methods backing this up.

Background

Marcus Tullius Cicero (January 3, 106 BC – December 7, 43 BC) was an Ancient Roman philosopher and politician, famous for his oratory skills. He came from a wealthy municipal family of the Roman equestrian order, and is widely considered one of Rome's greatest orators, and one of the premier prose stylists during the Golden Age of Latin. Tullia (August 5, 79 BC or 78 BC – February 45 BC), Cicero's daughter, died in the winter of 45 BC after giving birth to her second son; this caused Cicero to go into a period of deep mourning.

Cicero decided to stay with his friend Titus Pomponius Atticus for a time, during which he perused Atticus's library, reading any and all books that dealt with overcoming grief. Unsatisfied with what he found, he relocated to his villa at Astura, where he composed the Consolatio. (It was during this time that he also wrote the famed—and now lost—dialogue Hortensius.) Cicero later opined that the Consolatio was written in an attempt not only to heal himself emotionally, but also to benefit others who are mourning or experiencing sadness.

Contents

Pliny the Elder quotes Cicero in the preface to his Natural History as saying, "I follow [the Greek philosopher] Crantor in my Consolatio" (in consolatione filiae Crantorem ... sequor). Centuries later, the Christian theologian Jerome, in a consolation letter to Heliodorus of Altino concerning the death of St. Nepotian, makes a similar reference, writing that the Consolatio was heavily based on Crantor's ancient work De Luctu ("On Grief"). Some have suggested that Cicero "followed Crantor exclusively or even principally" when composing the Consolatio, but David Scourfield repudiates this view, arguing it was more likely that Cicero's Consolatio simply agreed with Crantor rather than slavishly duplicated his work.

Paul MacKendrick argues that the general outline for the Consolatio can be deduced based both on the structure used by Servius Sulpicius Rufus in a consolation letter sent to Cicero following Tullia's death, as well as the structure of Cicero's reply. From the snippets that remain of the work, it would appear that the piece was addressed to Cicero himself. A novel part of the Consolatio seems to be Cicero's idea that Tullia deserves to be deified as a god. Cicero notes that, in order for his plan to work, her deification must both be approved of by the gods, as well as the Roman public. In order to win over the public, he writes that he will build Tullia a memorial in a well-known location. Cicero also lists a number of famous individuals who have been deified to justify his proposed apotheosis of Tullia.

The only extant pieces of the Consolatio are fragments, one of which was preserved by Cicero himself in his Tusculanae Disputationes. Seven other fragments were preserved by the early Christian author Lactantius in his work Institutiones Divinae (The Divine Institutes). Lactantius used the excerpts from the Consolatio both to point out the futility of paganism, as well as to argue that pagans actually accept some tenets of Christianity without them even realizing it. Lactantius criticized what Cicero wrote, but he also applauded Cicero at times for parallelingalbeit coincidentallywhat the Bible says. However, the lines preserved by Lactantius have been criticized due to their lack of context. MacKendrick notes that Lactantius was using "partial quotation[s]" in order to frame what Cicero wrote so that Lactantius could more easily refute his ideas.

Another important reference to the work can be found in the aforementioned letter by Jerome addressed to Heliodorus; Jerome noted that the Consolatio contained references to "men who showed equal fortitude in sorrow and war", namely: Quintus Fabius Maximus Verrucosus, Cato the Elder, Quintus Gallius, Gaius Calpurnius Piso, Lucius Junius Brutus, Quintus Mucius Scaevola Augur, Scaurus, Quintus Marcius Rex, Publius Licinius Crassus, and Gnaeus Aufidius Orestes, as well as members of the Metellus and Marcellus families.

Legacy

The Consolatio was of major importance, and Scourfield argues that it is the distinct work that introduced the Greek consolatio tradition to the Romans of the late Republic. The work may have survived well into the 15th century; St. Ambrose Traversari claimed in his Hodoeporicon to have discovered "a short work about consolation" (opusculum de Consolatione) at Perugia, Italy in 1432 AD.

Forgery

In 1583, Italian scholar Carlo Sigonio claimed to have discovered a non-fragmentary version of the Consolatio. While this news was met with excitement at first, scholars—after reading the work—began to argue that the manuscript was a fraud, with humanist Antonio Riccoboni being among the most vocal. However, Sigonio continued to defend the work until his death, even mentioning in two different orations his belief in the truthfulness of the text. The scholar Latino Latini, however, later claimed in a letter that Sigonio had admitted to the forgery on his deathbed, although the truth of this statement is unknown. By and large, the academic community concluded that the version of the Consolatio discovered was not genuine, and the document is now known as the Pseudo-Ciceronian Consolatio.

Despite the gradual condemnation of the work and the accusation that Sigonio had created it himself, there were some holdouts. Robinson Ellis, in 1893, argued that the Pseudo-Ciceronian Consolatio, while probably not a genuine work of Cicero's, was not a forgery by Sigonio. He reasoned that, because St. Ambrose Traversari had claimed to find a copy of the work so close to its rediscovery by Sigonio in 1583, it was possible that Sigonio had simply found the Perugian text. He then considered the hypothesis (also discussed by Evan Taylor Sage) that, because the Pseudo-Ciceronian Consolatio contained all of the extant fragments of Cicero that are to be found in Lactantius's work, the actual Consolatio had been lost in the distant past and quietly replaced at some point by an imitation. This falsely-attributed work, Ellis wrote, could have then been read by those late antiquity authors who quoted Cicero, such as Lactantius, Augustine, and Jerome. It was this false Consolatio, so the hypothesis goes, that was rediscovered by Sigonio, who also unwittingly believed it also to be genuine. Finally, Ellis argued that, because Sigonio was a man of "high character" who had spent much of his life editing the fragments of Cicero, for Sigonio to stoop to forgery would have been completely out of character.

In 1999, Richard Forsyth, David Holmes, and Emily Tse used linguistic techniques to test the origin of the Pseudo-Ciceronian Consolatio. Forsyth, Holmes, and Tse focused their research on two types of Latin: Cicero's writing and "Ciceronianism" (a style of Neo-Latin popular in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries that sought to emulate the style of Cicero). The three scholars argued that if the Pseudo-Ciceronian Consolatio were devoid of "Ciceronianism"that is to say Neo-Latinthen it could be accepted as a genuine work of Cicero. Forsyth, Holmes, and Tse collected six Classical Latin authors (viz. Cicero, Julius Caesar, Cornelius Nepos, Gaius Sallustius Crispus, Lucius Annaeus Seneca, and Publius Cornelius Tacitus), and five Neo-Latin authors (viz. Sigonio, Piero Vettori, Marc-Antoine Muret, Bernadino di Loredan, and Riccoboni) and compared them using stylometric methods. The three concluded that the text of the Pseudo-Ciceronian Consolatio is "extremely uncharacteristic of Cicero, and indeed that the text is much more likely to have been written during the Renaissance than in classical times." The study also provided evidence that the Pseudo-Ciceronian Consolatio matched more closely with Sigonio's, rather than any of the other New Latin writers, suggestingalthough not provingthat he penned the document.

title: Take Off (Folks EP)

text:
Take Off is the first extended play by Japanese band Folks, independently released on March 29, 2013. It was the band's first release, and their only self-issued album before their major label debut under Ki/oon Music in 2014.

Background and development

Folks first formed in 2013 when former Galileo Galilei members Fumito Iwai and Kazumasa Noguchi moved back to their birthplace of Hokkaido to start a band, and officially became a unit in January 2013. Iwai and Noguchi asked former Guild member Yoshitomo Kobayashi to join their band, and they moved to Sapporo, renting a house with Iwai's older brother Katsutoshi Iwai and his friend Masatsugu Takahashi, who also had a separate band. All five people practised music in their own rooms, but because Katsutoshi Iwai's room was a Japanese style room, the other band members could hear him through the thin shōji walls. In late 2013, Fumito Iwai heard his brother creating the song "River," and liked it so much he asked to arrange the song. All the house-mates loved the completed song, and decided to merge their two bands to create Folks.

Writing and production

Take Off was recorded from Summer 2012, when Folks was a three-member unit, until March 2013. The majority of the extended play features songs written by Fumito Iwai and featuring vocals by him, except the song "River," which was written and sung by Katsutoshi Iwai. Fumito Iwai mixed, arranged and produced Take Off by himself. The band based themselves at their parents' houses in Eniwa, Hokkaido, and recorded songs in Fumito Iwai's bedroom in Megumino.

Iwai felt that Take Off was influenced by Oasis, and other English indie rock musicians such as James Blake and Bombay Bicycle Club. he felt the lyrics were influenced by Galileo Galilei vocalist Yūki Ozaki's lyrical style, and by Galileo Galilei's music in general.

For the July 2013 iTunes release of the album, Take Off was remastered by Yoshinori Sunahara.

All songs, except the intro "Take Off" were later used for their major label debut extended play Newtown (2014), including the song "Gaga" which was retitled "You're Right."

Promotion and release

The album was first released on March 29, 2013 to download service Vibirth. On April 6, 2013 at Sound Lab Mole in Sapporo, Folks held the album release party live, and also sold physical copies of the album there.

The physical version was released at Sapporo music store Ongaku Dokoro in July 2013, and later at Hokkaido music chain Gyokkodo on October 8, 2013. The extended play was released globally on iTunes on July 31, 2013.

The band made their first festival performance, at the Rising Sun Rock Festival, on August 17, 2013. They held their first radio interview on local Eniwa radio station E-niwa on August 30, 2013.

title: Newtown (EP)

text:
Newtown is the second extended play by the Japanese band Folks, released on February 12, 2014. It was the band's first major label release under Ki/oon Music.

Writing and production
Newtown was recorded in Sapporo at Hit Studio and Geimori Studio in 2013. The album has four of the five songs on Take Off, along with three new compositions. Fumito Iwai is the main songwriter and vocalist for the album, writing every track except "River", which was written and sung by Katsutoshi Iwai. "Good-bye, Friends" was composed by all members of Folks, with lyrics written by Fumito Iwai. Their self-produced 2012 extended play Take Off was produced and arranged by Fumito Iwai alone. After performing the album live for a year, it began to feel like their own album as well and not just Fumito Iwai's. On Newtown, all the members contributed to the arrangement and production. The arrangements of Take Off songs were changed after the band performed them in front of live audiences. Fumito Iwai had never considered how songs would sound live, so experimented by changed their percussion balance and tempo, and created live arrangements for them.

Work on Newtown started several months after their first live concert in April 2013, as the members created ideas and discussed what they wanted to do together as Folks. The style of French indie rock band Phoenix's album, Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix (2009), influenced thm greatly and they sought to use some of the techniques Phoenix used.

"Replica", a song about the end of summer in Hokkaido, was written in summer 2012 by Fumito Iwai. It was the first song he worked on after leaving Galileo Galilei, and expressed the sort of music he wanted to create. The first song recorded for the Newtown sessions was "Forever"."Everything Is Alone" was described as having an "updated funk sound" by Fumito Iwai, and was a mix of everything the band members wanted to express in a song. They had difficulty in arranging and tuning the drums, as they had not worked with live drums in a recording before.

"Gaga" from Take Off was re-titled "You're Right" for Newtown. Fumito Iwai felt the main association of the word was the American musician Lady Gaga, and changed it as he felt that too limiting."Two Young" had not been performed live by Folks before Newtown'''s release, but was written to be performed live. "Good-bye, Friends" was based on a demo Katsutoshi Iwai had made and Noguchi expanded on. However, the song was created by all of the members of the band, discussing and experimenting together.

After Newtown was recorded, Fumito Iwai and Yoshitomo Kobayash went to Tokyo to oversee its mixing. Tatsuki Masuko, a member of the Japanese instrumental band Rovo, helped to mix and master Newtown, unlike Take Off, which Fumito Iwai mixed alone.

The title Newtown refers to the planned community of Megumino in Eniwa, which is a motif of the release. The cover and artist promotional photos were taken in Eniwa by the photographer Yoshiharu Ota, as well as the music video for "Everything Is Alone". The video was shot at the members' homes in Megumino.

 Promotion and release
"Everything Is Alone" was the first song promoting the album. It was released to radio stations; its music video was a power play video on the music video station Space Shower TV in January 2014. The song received minor requests to radio stations on a national level in January 2014, however was extremely popular in Hokkaido, being the number one requested song at radio stations for January 2014. The song peaked at number 81 on the Billboard Adult Contemporary Airplay Chart. The song was chosen as the February ending theme song for the Nagoya radio station Zip-FM's Spice Up weekend morning radio show.

The band performed their first live show outside of Hokkaido at the Tokyo Tsutaya O-West on January 20, 2014. The band held their first live show in Eniwa just after the EP's release, on February 15, 2014, at the Eniwa Musōkan, where Fumito Iwai's high school band Guild first performed.

To promote the album, Folks appeared on many Hokkaido-based radio stations such as FM North Wave, Air-G', STV Radio and HBC Radio. They were also interviewed for music magazine Musica.

 Critical reception
Critical reception to Newtown was positive. Akihiro Okumura from What's In? was impressed with the "overseas resonance" of the band, likening Folks to indie rock musicians like Passion Pit and Mumford and Sons, as well as having the approach of James Blake. Okumura was very impressed by the "lyrical vocal lines" of Fumito Iwai and Kazutoshi Iwai, and likened them to the 1980s city pop movement in Japanese music. Saori Kishiba, a reviewer for Skream!, likened the band to Animal Collective and Arcade Fire, praising the "dreamy pop sound" and polished arrangements of songs on Newtown. CDJournal reviewers felt the EP made the listener feel the "transparent feeling and pathos" of Northern European rock, while having a post-rock base. The reviewers praised the "beauty of fusion" in the album's "pleasant songs", and wrote that their harmonies "reminded you of an aurora".

In March 2015, Folks' extended play Newtown was awarded the best Hokkaido-region artist award at the 7th CD Shop Awards.

title: Cooke's Canyon

text:
Cooke's Canyon or Cookes Canyon, a valley and ephemeral stream, located on the eastern slope of the Cooke's Range in Luna County, New Mexico.  It has its source at  north of Massacre Peak.  The mouth of Cooke's Canyon is at its confluence with Fort Cummings Draw.

Cooke's Canyon is named for Lt. Col. Philip St. George Cooke, who commanded the Mormon Battalion from Santa Fe to San Diego, California during the Mexican War. Their task was to establish a wagon road, which later was called Cooke's Wagon Road, and became the primary route used by the Southern Emigrant Trail.  The Mormon Battalion crossed Cooke's Canyon on 17 November 1846. The upper part of Cooke's Canyon is part of what was called Cooke's Pass, a narrow gap, running east and west, through which the Southern Emigrant Trail passed through Cooke's Range.

title: Havering Residents Association

text:
Havering Residents Association (HRA) is a group of residents' associations and registered political party in London, England. It is active in the London Borough of Havering and as of 2023 forms a 21-councillor group on Havering London Borough Council. At the 2022 London borough council elections they were the largest party on Havering Council, largest elected residents group in London, and the fourth largest political party represented on all London borough councils. Not all residents groups in Havering are affiliated with the HRA, usually indicating this by standing as 'independent resident' candidates. In 2014 eight members of the Havering Residents Association group split off to form the East Havering Residents Group.

History
The political party has its origins in the Hornchurch Ratepayers' Association which contested elections to Hornchurch Urban District Council since it was created in 1926. In 1911 and 1925 the association had opposed the creation of the urban district, fearing increased taxation. The association controlled the council after the first election. In 1934 Hornchurch expanded to include Cranham and Upminster, which brought another predecessor within the district, the Upminster and Cranham Ratepayers' Association. It had been active since at least 1923 when the chairman of the association wrote a letter to The Times to complain about delays in construction of the Southend Arterial Road. Following the Second World War the council was dominated by the major political parties, but from 1961 to 1965 it was in no-overall control with the ratepayers as the largest group.

Havering London Borough Council

History
The route of the Southern Emigrant Trail passed just north of this peak as did the San Antonio-San Diego Mail Line, Butterfield Overland Mail, and other stagecoach lines.

The peaks name refers to the time of the Apache Wars following the Bascom Affair when the Apache destroyed most of the stations and many coaches and killed many of the station staff, drivers and passengers. Many violent incidents followed such as the Battle of Cookes Canyon.

Near the end of the American Civil War, Fort Cummings was established two miles (3.2 km) northeast of the peak, near Cooke's Spring and stage station.
