paragraph: Choi Ji-eun

paragraph: Choi Ji-eun (born May 25, 1988) is a South Korean figure skating coach and former competitor. She is a five-time South Korean national medalist, having won two silver and three bronze medals. She won the bronze medal at the 2006 ISU Junior Grand Prix in Hungary and reached the free skate at four ISU Championships.

paragraph: Ahead of the 2005–06 season, Choi again spent two months training in Colorado Springs. As the leading South Korean senior ladies' skater, she competed at the 2005 Karl Schäfer Memorial to qualify a spot for her country in the ladies' event at the 2006 Winter Olympics, but her placement, 11th, was insufficient.

paragraph: Sugar Todd

paragraph: Sugar Raeshelle-Faye Chelsea Todd (born July 19, 1990) is an American speed skater who qualified for the 2014 Winter Olympics in the 500 meter and 1000 meter events. Todd began speed skating at age eight and quickly excelled at the sport, convincing her parents to move to Wisconsin to further her training. In 2003, she set five national records and won the United States and North American titles for her age group. From 2008–2010, she made the junior world team. In 2010, she participated in the Olympic trials and made her first senior World Cup team.

paragraph: Todd relocated to Salt Lake City, Utah, in 2012 to train with the national team. In 2013, she placed third in the 1000 meters at the national championships. At the 2014 Olympic trials, she set three personal bests en route to a third-place finish in the 1000 meters and fourth-place finishes in the 500 meter and 1500 meter events. At the Olympics, she placed 29th in the 500 meters and 32nd in the 1000 meters.

paragraph: Section::::Early life.

paragraph: Sugar Raeshelle-Faye Chelsea Todd was born July 19, 1990, in Omaha, Nebraska, to parents Mike and Diana Todd. Todd's parents considered giving her a more conventional first name. However, after she was born, they affectionately called her Sugar and decided that it would be her given name. She grew up on a Nebraskan farm. At age eight, a flyer prompted Todd to join the Omaha Speedskating Club. She quickly discovered she had a passion for the sport and convinced her family to move to Milwaukee the following year so that she could train at the Pettit National Ice Center. Her mother hated the Wisconsin cold, but made the move immediately. Her father kept his job as a firefighter in Omaha, making a 1,000 mile commute every ten days to spend his time off with the rest of the family.

paragraph: Todd graduated from Wauwatosa East High School in 2008.

paragraph: Section::::Speed-skating career.

paragraph: In February 2003, Todd won the midget girls (age 11–12) division at the national championships and set national age groups records for the 300, 400, 500, 600 and 800 meter races. She went on to win her age division at the North American championships that year. In 2006, Todd underwent a successful surgery to overcome compartment syndrome in both shins and continue training. She made the United States Junior World team three times from 2008 to 2010, and her first senior World Cup team in 2010. Todd attended the 2010 Olympic trials, placing 11th in the 500 meters, 11th in the 1000 meters, and 13th in the 5000 meters. At the 2011 National championships, she placed eighth in the 500 meters and ninth in the 1000 meters.

paragraph: In 2012, Todd relocated to Salt Lake City, Utah, to train with the national team. At the 2012 national championships, she placed fifth in the 500 meters and fifth in the 1000 meters. She qualified for the 2012–13 World Cup team, finishing 36th overall in the 500 meters and 44th in the 1000 meters. Todd attended the 2012–2013 World Sprint Championships, calling it the most memorable event of her career to date. At the 2013 national championships, she placed fourth in the 500 meters, third in the 1000 meters, and fourth in the 1500 meters.

paragraph: At the 2014 Olympic trials, Todd completed the 500 meters with a combined time of 76.42s in two heats (38.18s and 38.24s). Her time was good enough for fourth place and a spot on the Olympic team. "I feel so good right now. It's amazing. I am so happy. It's immeasurable joy", she remarked after making the Olympic team. The following day, Todd turned in a personal best in the 1000 meters en route to a third-place finish and second Olympic berth. "Knowing I had already secured a spot in the 500 made today that much easier", she commented. She concluded the trials by finishing fourth in the 1500 meters with a personal best time of 1:58.59.

paragraph: After making the Olympic team, Todd realized her parents could not afford to make the trip to Sochi, Russia, the site of the Olympic games. She started a GoFundMe campaign to raise funds for her parents' travel expenses. The campaign quickly drew international attention and reached its goal in less than 24 hours.

paragraph: At the 2014 Winter Olympics, Todd placed 29th in the 500 meters with a combined time of 78.53 from two runs. However, she called the race the "most fun I've ever had" and photos of her celebrating after the race caused a Twitter sensation.c

paragraph: Todd specializes in sprint events, listing the 500 meter start as her greatest strength. She is coached by Ryan Shimabukuro.

paragraph: Todd participated in the US Olympic Trials in January, 2018, but did not qualify for the 2018 Winter Olympics after finishing 4th in the 500m. In a Tweet, she announced, "I may not be going out on top, but I am going out with a smile."

paragraph: Section::::Personal life.

paragraph: As of 2014, Todd lives in Park City, Utah, with fellow speed skaters Brittany Bowe and Heather Richardson-Bergsma. Her parents have retired to Northeastern Texas where they have a farm. In addition to speed skating, Todd has competed in track cycling. In her free time, she enjoys camping, cooking, and visiting the library to find a new book to read. She lists her parents as her greatest influence in life. Her sporting hero is Tucker Fredricks.

paragraph: Mario Landi

paragraph: Mario Landi (October 12, 1920 – March 18, 1992) was an Italian director known for his giallo movies such as "Giallo a Venezia" and his television series "Le inchieste del commissario Maigret".

paragraph: Section::::Life and career.

paragraph: Born in Messina, Sicily, Landi attended the National Academy of Dramatic Arts in Rome, graduating in direction in 1944. He began his career in theater, working with the best actors of his time, in particular being one of the most active protagonists of the "Diogene" cultural circle in Milan, a reference point for the Italian theater in the 1950s. He made his debut as a film director in 1950, with the musical film "Canzoni per le strade", but soon his interests shifted to the new medium of his era, the television; he is regarded as a pioneer of Italian television, for which he worked since 1952, when RAI started experimental broadcasting before starting the regular TV service. From 1955 to 1979 he directed a very large number of television movies and series, occasionally directing a few variety shows, including an edition of "Canzonissima". He was less active in cinema, in which he sporadically directed a number of low-profile genre films.

paragraph: Section::::Reception.

paragraph: The films of Mario Landi were not well received. Paolo Mereghetti, author of "Il Mereghetti", wrote of "Maigret a Pigalle": "the direction is slovenly", while of "Giallo a Venezia" he wrote that it:

paragraph: Ronald Melville

paragraph: Ronald Melville (12 March 1903 – 6 August 1985) He was an English botanist, based at the Royal Botanic Gardens Kew. He is chiefly remembered for his wartime research into rosehips as a source of vitamin C, prompted by the epidemic of scurvy amongst children owing to the reduced importation of fresh fruit. His research concluded that hips from the common Dog Rose "Rosa canina" held the highest concentration of the vitamin. In later years, he challenged the two-species taxonomy of the British elms proposed by Richens, identifying five distinct species, several varieties and numerous complex hybrids.

paragraph: Melville also compiled the world's first "Red Data Book", published in 1970, listing all known threatened plants. He was made a Fellow of the Linnean Society in 1938. The tree "Acacia melvillei" is named in his honour.

paragraph: Serafino Dubois

paragraph: Serafino Dubois (10 October 1817 – 15 January 1899) was an Italian chess Master and chess writer. Dubois was certainly among the strongest players in the world during the 1850s. He was known for his writings on the game, and for his promotion of chess in Italy.

paragraph: Section::::Chess career.

paragraph: Serafino Dubois was born in Rome. His early career coincided with a time when the Italian rules of chess differed from those elsewhere in Europe, but he wasn't content with being recognized as the best player in Italy; he needed to prove himself on the European board as well.

paragraph: During the early to middle part of the nineteenth century, chess tournaments were few and far between, and many of the top players were limited to playing matches against each other, usually for a substantial purse, which was either staked by themselves or by their patrons. From the 1840s to the 1860s, Dubois took part in many matches against the top players of Europe, and it was rare for him to lose, even when he gave odds of pawn and move to his opponents.

paragraph: In 1846 he played a number of games in Rome against the strong English Master Marmaduke Wyvill, and it has been reported that Dubois won 55–26 when no odds were given by either side, but lost 39–30 when he gave odds of pawn and move to his opponent.

paragraph: In 1855 he visited Paris and the famous Café de la Régence, a mecca for the leading French players and enthusiasts from abroad. He played no fewer than four matches, beating the strong French player Jules Arnous de Rivière by 25–7, Seguin by 5–1, Wincenty Budzyński by 13½–6½, but he did lose 4–1 to Lecrivain.

paragraph: In 1856 he beat Kowsky 11½–1½, and played another match against de Rivière, but unfortunately the latter score has been lost. Two years later he played the celebrated Russian novelist Ivan Turgenev in the Cafe Antonini in Rome, and won a game in 25 moves giving odds of a pawn and ceding the first move. This game was later published in "La Nuova Rivista degli Scacchi" in 1880.

paragraph: His best tournament performance came in the London tournament of 1862, where he placed 5th with 9 points, ahead of Wilhelm Steinitz, who later went on to become the first official world chess champion. Dubois won £10 in prize-money, now roughly equivalent to £700.

paragraph: Section::::Chess career.:Loses match against Steinitz, wins three other matches.

paragraph: After the tournament ended, Steinitz challenged Dubois to a match. The future World Champion beat his Italian opponent by 5½–3½.

paragraph: Just over 100 years after this match, world champion-to-be Bobby Fischer, who was very interested in 19th century chess, annotated in depth all nine games from it in his monthly column for "Chess Life" magazine in 1964 (April, July, August, November and December issues).

paragraph: But Dubois did win several other matches that same year. He defeated Cornelius Bonetti by 11½–1½. He won two matches against Valentine Green: the first by 5–0 and the second 5½–½.

paragraph: Section::::Dubois and Italian chess.

paragraph: Dubois moved to the Netherlands in April 1863, and reputedly stayed for about two years. However, he couldn't get used to the cooler climate, and returned to Rome where he concentrated on his writing and his promotion of the Italian rules of the game.

paragraph: From the late 1850s to the early 1870s Serafino Dubois corresponded regularly with French and Russian masters about how to achieve unity in the rules of chess. In particular, he was an avid supporter of "free castling", which was permitted under the Italian rules of the game but not elsewhere in Europe. Under free castling the King and Rook, after jumping over each other, could go to any square up to and including the other's starting point, provided neither piece attacked an enemy piece.

paragraph: There were other significant differences in the Italian rules, too: taking a pawn "en passant" was forbidden, and pawns could only be promoted into pieces captured during the game. There was an added twist to the latter rule – if a pawn reached the eighth rank before any piece of its colour had been captured, it had to wait there 'suspended' until a piece was captured, at which time the promotion was possible.

paragraph: Dubois discussed these issues in his writings of the time. In 1847 he became the editor of the first Italian chess column, "L'Album" in Rome, and by 1859 he was co-editor with Augusto Ferrante of the chess journal "La Rivista degli Scacchi", which was also based in his home city. Between 1868 and 1873, he published a three-volume work on the differences in the rules between the Italian and French versions, in which he tried hard to defend the practice of free castling.

paragraph: However, by the 1880s Italy toed the line and adopted the normal European laws of chess, although it wasn't until the end of the century that the new rules were widely accepted throughout the country.

paragraph: Section::::Legacy.

paragraph: Dubois was Italy's best player during the 1850s and 1860s, and a very strong tactician, in keeping with the style of his times.

paragraph: He was very influential within the world of Italian chess and, not surprisingly, chess politics played a big part in his later life. In addition, he wrote many articles on chess openings.

paragraph: Dubois has several variations named in his honor:

paragraph: a) a line of the Vienna Game;

paragraph: b) the Dubois Variation of the Hamppe-Muzio Gambit (C25);

paragraph: c) the Dubois Variation of the Giuoco Pianissimo (C50);

paragraph: d) the Dubois-Reti Defence in the Scotch Gambit (C44).

paragraph: However, he was not a keen fan of the French Defense, and commented: "This is the most monotonous and annoying play you can imagine – rarely it gives rise to combinations of some interest".

paragraph: Section::::Death.

paragraph: Dubois died on 15 January 1899.

paragraph: André Isoir

paragraph: André Isoir (20 July 1935 – 20 July 2016) was a French organist.

paragraph: Isoir studied with Édouard Souberbielle (organ) and Germaine Mounier (piano) at the École César Franck and under Rolande Falcinelli at the Conservatoire de Paris where he won the first prizes in organ and improvisation in 1960.

paragraph: Thereafter he won several international organ competitions. In 1965 he won the improvisation competition in St Albans (UK). And, in three successive years, he won the competition in Haarlem (Netherlands), earning the "Challenge Award," the only French interpreter to have achieved this distinction since the inception of the competition in 1951.

paragraph: André Isoir was organist titulaire at St-Médard in Paris from 1952 to 1967 and at St. Severin in 1967. Since 1973 he has been titulaire (head organist) at the ancient Abbey of Saint-Germain-des-Prés in Paris.

paragraph: In 1974 Isoir was appointed to the organ staff at the Conservatoire d'Orsay, in 1977 promoted to the rank of National School of Music. He became a full professor in January 1978 and remained at Orsay until 1983, when he was appointed to the Conservatoire National de Region de Boulogne-Billancourt, where he taught organ until 1994.

paragraph: Isoir has recorded some sixty discs, notably for Calliope. His recordings have been awarded the Grand Prix du Disque in 1972, 73, 74, 75, 77, 80, 89 and 91 as well as the «Président de la République» prize for "Le Livre d'Or de l’Orgue Français". In February 1974 he was awarded membership of the Friends of the Organ for his "Variations sur un psaume huguenot". He has recorded the complete organ works of J. S. Bach, which remains one of the benchmark performances of Bach's organ music. His recordings of works by César Franck on the organ of the Cathedral of Luzon were also highly praised.

paragraph: André Isoir completed his musical culture by gaining a thorough knowledge of the organ. Knowledge of the instrument contributes, in his view, to a better approach to different musical styles in terms of both technology and performance.

paragraph: Isoir has been awarded "Chevalier des Arts et Lettres" by the National Order of Merit, best instrumental soloist of the year to 2nd Victoires de la Musique, and also "Choc de l’année 2000" from the magazine "Le Monde de la musique" for his interpretation of the Art of Fugue by J.S. Bach.

paragraph: Ettie Grenfell, Baroness Desborough

paragraph: Ethel Anne Priscilla Grenfell, Baroness Desborough (née Fane; 27 June 1867 – 28 May 1952) was a British society hostess.

paragraph: Strojimir

paragraph: Strojimir (, ) was the co-ruler of the Serbian Principality alongside his two brothers Mutimir and Gojnik, from ca 851 to his and Gojnik's deposition in the 880s after an unsuccessful coup against the eldest Prince Mutimir (r. 851-891).

paragraph: He was a younger son of Vlastimir, who ruled in 836–851. Strojimir, together with his brothers Gojnik and Mutimir, defeated the Bulgar Army sent by Boris I, led by his son Vladimir, who, together with 12 boyars was captured by the Serb Army. Peace was subsequently agreed and the two sons of Mutimir; Pribislav and Stefan Mutimirović escorted prisoners towards the border at Rasa. There Boris gave them rich gifts and was given 2 slaves, 2 falcons, two dogs, and 80 furs by Mutimir.

paragraph: After power struggle between the younger brothers and Mutimir, he and Gojnik was captured and sent as prisoners to Bulgar Khan Boris I in 855–856, as a token of peace-agreement, they both lost their titles as "Princes of Serbia" and were held at Pliska, the Bulgarian capital. Strojimir was treated well by the Bulgarians, Khan Boris himself chose the wife of Klonimir, the son of Strojimir.

paragraph: Section::::The Seal of Strojimir.

paragraph: On July 11, 2006, the Serbian government bought a Byzantine-styled seal in solid gold weighing 15,64 g, most likely belonging to Strojimir (Klonimir's father), at an auction in Munich. It was presumably crafted outside Byzantium, and has a Greek inscription (, ""God Help Strojimir"") and a patriarchal cross in the centre. It most likely dates to the second half of the 9th century, between 855/56 and 896, when Klonimir tried to take the Serbian throne.

paragraph: Emperor Itoku

paragraph: , also known as was the fourth Emperor of Japan, according to the traditional order of succession. Very little is known about this Emperor due to a lack of material available for further verification and study. Itoku is known as a "legendary emperor" among historians as his actual existence is disputed. Nothing exists in the Kojiki other than his name and genealogy. Itoku's reign allegedly began in 510 BC, he had one wife and two sons. After his death in 477 BC, his first son supposedly became the next emperor.

paragraph: Section::::Legendary narrative.

paragraph: In the "Kojiki" and "Nihon Shoki", only Itoku's name and genealogy were recorded. While the Japanese have traditionally accepted this sovereign's historical existence, no extant contemporary records have been discovered that confirm a view that this historical figure actually reigned. Itoku is believed to be the son of Emperor Annei, and his mother is believed to have been Nunasoko-Nakatsu-hime. The latter of the two is allegedly the granddaughter of Kotoshiro-Nushi-no-kami. The "Kojiki" records that Itoku was the second or third son of Emperor Annei, but the surviving documents provide no basis for speculating why the elder brother or brothers were passed over for the throne. He is traditionally believed to have ruled from the palace of at Karu in what would come to be known as Yamato Province. At some point he married a woman named "Amonotoyototsu-hime", and fathered two sons with her. Itoku's reign lasted from 510 BC until his death in 477 BC, his son then took the throne and would later be referred to as Emperor Kōshō.

paragraph: Section::::Known information.

paragraph: The existence of at least the first nine Emperors is disputed due to insufficient material available for further verification and study. "Itoku" is thus regarded by historians as a "legendary Emperor", and is considered to have been the third of eight Emperors without specific legends associated with them. The name Itoku"-tennō" was assigned to him posthumously by later generations, and literally means "benign virtue". His name might have been regularized centuries after the lifetime ascribed to Itoku, possibly during the time in which legends about the origins of the Yamato dynasty were compiled as the chronicles known today as the "Kojiki". While the actual site of Itoku's grave is not known, the Emperor is traditionally venerated at a memorial Shinto shrine ("misasagi") in Kashihara. The Imperial Household Agency designates this location as Itoku's mausoleum. It is formally named "Unebi-yama no hitsujisaru Mihodo no i no e no misasagi". The first emperor that historians state might have actually existed is Emperor Sujin, the 10th emperor of Japan. Outside of the Kojiki, the reign of Emperor Kinmei ( – 571 AD) is the first for which contemporary historiography is able to assign verifiable dates. The conventionally accepted names and dates of the early Emperors were not confirmed as "traditional" though, until the reign of Emperor Kanmu between 737 and 806 AD.

paragraph: William Bradbridge

paragraph: William Bradbridge (or Brodebridge) (1501–1578) was an English bishop of Exeter.

paragraph: Section::::Life.

paragraph: He was born in London and took his B.A. degree at Magdalen College, Oxford, on 15 July 1528. In 1529 he became a fellow of his college, M.A. on 6 June 1532, B.D. on 17 June 1539. On 26 March 1565 he supplicated the university for a D.D. degree, but was not admitted.

paragraph: He was a Protestant, but remained in post in the reign of Queen Mary. In 1555, on the presentation of Ralph Henslow, he was appointed prebendary of Lyme and Halstock, Sarum. He was also a canon of Chichester, and in 1561 a dispensation was granted him on account of this as regarded part of his term of residence at Salisbury. He subscribed the articles as a member of the lower house of the convocation of 1563, and when the reformist "six articles" of the same year were debated there, in common with other exiles, he signed them, but was outvoted by a majority of one. He also subscribed the articles of 1571.

paragraph: Bradbridge was collated to be chancellor of Chichester on 28 April 1562, and was allowed to hold the chancellorship "in commendam" with his bishopric. On Low Sunday 1563 he gave the annual Spittal sermon, and on 23 June of the same year, allowing himself conformable to the discipline which was then being established, was elected dean of Salisbury by letters from Queen Elizabeth, in the place of the Italian Peter Vannes. Here he was a contemporary of John Foxe and Thomas Harding. From 1568 to 1576 he was the prebendary of Horningsham at Heytesbury, Wiltshire.

paragraph: On 26 February 1571 the queen issued her significavit in his favour to the archbishop, and he was duly elected bishop of Exeter on 1 March. After a declaration of the queen's supremacy and doing homage, the temporalities of the see were restored to him on the 14th. His election was confirmed the next day, and he was consecrated at Lambeth on the 18th by Archbishop Matthew Parker and Bishops Robert Horne and Nicholas Bullingham.

paragraph: More of a scholar than an administrator, he was given the Pentateuch to translate in 1572 for the new edition of the "Bishop's Bible", according to John Strype. He had trouble with Catholics and dissenters, and sent three Cornishmen who refused to attend church to the London authorities. His commissary Dr. Tremayn headed a party against him, but the bishop withstood him, and had Lord Burghley block a proposed commission in the diocese. He also asked Cecil in 1578 if he could return to Salisbury. He resided mostly at Newton Ferrers, Devon, and died suddenly there alone, at noon on 27 June 1578, aged 77. He was indebted to the queen in the amount of £1,400 for tenths and subsidies received in her behalf from the clergy, so that immediately after his death she seized all his goods. He was buried in Exeter Cathedral, on the north side of the choir near the altar, under a plain altar tomb.

paragraph: Juan Garaizabal (born 1971 in Madrid) is a Spanish plastic artist, Garaizabal's work encompasses drawings, sculpture, light and acoustic installations, video art, and engraving. He is internationally known for his monumental public sculptures. His "Urban Memories", structures intertwining sculpture and illumination, are a recuperation of long-lost architectural elements occupying vacant, historically significant sites.

paragraph: Section::::Artistic history.

paragraph: At 14, Garaizabal entered the IB 67drawing academy in Madrid where he studied for three years, later graduating from CESEM in Reims, France. His early work was split mainly between visual arts and the transforming of sundry spaces into lofts, a concept formally unknown in Spain. As a conceptual artist, a large part of his work has been done by hand, using such techniques as forging, carpentry, electricity, plasticity, and masonry – all skills acquired through time and experimentation. As of 2008, his main studio is in Berlin, Germany, although he maintains another in Madrid, Spain.

paragraph: Claudia Brücken

paragraph: Claudia Brücken (born 7 December 1963 in Berching, Bavaria) is a German singer who fronted the synthpop groups Propaganda and Act. In 1996, Brücken started working with OMD co-founder Paul Humphreys, first without a name, and from 2004 as Onetwo. Together they founded the independent record label THERE(there). In March 2013, Brücken and Humphreys ceased working and living together, and she has subsequently returned to pursuing her solo career.

paragraph: Section::::Early career.

paragraph: At age 14, Brücken joined her first band, Haarsträubend. Her second band was the all-female Topolinos together with Susanne Freytag, who also became a member of the band Propaganda.

paragraph: Section::::Propaganda.

paragraph: In 1983, Brücken joined the German band Propaganda and relocated to London when they signed with ZTT Records. Propaganda had two UK top 30 hit singles with "Dr Mabuse" (1984) and "Duel" (1985). On 14 February 1985, Brücken married British music journalist Paul Morley, who was one of the founders of the ZTT label. In July 1985, the first Propaganda album "A Secret Wish" was released. While promoting their first album and writing songs for a new album, internal tensions rose within the group. This was mainly attributed to the relationship between Brücken and Morley, and the profitless contract the band had signed with ZTT. In 1986, Propaganda left ZTT, and Brücken left Propaganda to stay with ZTT.

paragraph: Section::::Act and solo career.

paragraph: She joined Thomas Leer to form Act, who in 1988 released their only album "Laughter, Tears and Rage". In 1991 she released a solo album "" for Island Records. In the United Kingdom two singles were released from this album "Absolut(e)" in 1990, and "Kiss Like Ether" in 1991. Throughout the rest of the 90s, Brücken concentrated mainly on motherhood (she has a daughter, Maddy, and a son, Daniel, with Paul Morley) and made some guest performances on albums of other artists. She had met Paul Humphreys (of OMD) in the early 1980s but it was in 1996 when the pair became close, as she was working on songs for a possible second solo album.

paragraph: Section::::Propaganda reunion.

paragraph: In 1998, Brücken joined the part-reunion of Propaganda (in which founder Ralf Dörper, see also Die Krupps, did not take part) and they began working on new material. Several tracks were completed as demos, including a snippet of a video. A preview of this video was released via the band's official website in early 2000, however, the reunion fell apart and no album materialized, although nine songs were leaked to the internet. Two of these were later released as Onetwo songs: "Cloud Nine", co-written by Martin Gore of Depeche Mode, and "Anonymous".

paragraph: The original four-piece including founder Ralf Dörper performed together at the Trevor Horn Prince's Trust extravaganza which took place at the Wembley Arena in 2004. Another attempt at a band reunion failed in 2010.

paragraph: At the end of 2000, Brücken and Humphreys made a short tour of the United States as "Paul Humphreys of OMD: OMD Revisited". The tour started in Salt Lake City, and they performed songs from OMD and Propaganda, but also some new songs they had written. As Onetwo, in June 2004 the pair became the first established artists to release new material exclusively on eBay with a 5-track EP format called "Item". Onetwo made their live debut in September 2004 at the Carling Academy at Islington.

paragraph: A collaboration between Brücken and pianist Andrew Poppy resulted in the album "Another Language" in 2005. On this album, they performed songs of other artists with just vocals and piano/guitar.

paragraph: Onetwo finally released their debut album "Instead" on 26 February 2007, and performed some gigs in April 2007. They also supported Erasure and The Human League in the second half of 2007.

paragraph: Her vocals can be heard in the hit 2011 video game "L.A. Noire", as the singing voice of lounge singer, German immigrant and the main character's love interest Elsa Lichtmann.

paragraph: In 2011, Brücken released "Combined", which contained eight previously released tracks and four new ones, including her duet with Andy Bell of Erasure and two tracks from Onetwo. She also did a duet with Paul Rutherford of Frankie Goes To Hollywood singing "This Is Not America" a song written by David Bowie and Pat Metheny for the soundtrack of the movie "The Falcon and the Snowman".

paragraph: In March 2011, Brücken performed at the Scala, Kings Cross, London. She performed a selection of songs from her work with Propaganda, Act, Andrew Poppy, OneTwo and several numbers from her solo career. She was joined onstage by a variety of guests including Paul Humphreys, Glenn Gregory, Martyn Ware, Andrew Poppy, Susanne Freytag, Ralf Dorper and Andy Bell. The concert was called 'This Time: It's Claudia Brücken'. The concert was recorded and released on 23 July 2012 as a CD/DVD entitled "This Happened: Live at the Scala", and was produced by Paul Humphreys and David Watson.

paragraph: On November 6, 2012, Brücken released a new CD/vinyl set entitled "The Lost Are Found", a collection of "lost" songs from artists such as the Pet Shop Boys, Julee Cruise and The Band, whose second album "The Band" contains "Whispering Pines" which lends the album its title. A video for "Whispering Pines" was released as the album's first single in December.

paragraph: Brücken played live in the UK in March 2013. Germany tour dates were postponed after an announcement on March 7 reporting that Paul Humphreys would have to withdraw from the original dates.

paragraph: In October 2014, Brücken released a new solo album, entitled "Where Else..." (Cherry Red), a collaboration with co-writer and producer John Williams.

paragraph: For two nights in March 2018, Brücken, along with Propaganda bandmate Susanne Freytag, performed the Propaganda album "A Secret Wish" in its entirety at The Garage in London. They billed their band as xPropaganda.

paragraph: Brücken collaborated with Jerome Froese on the album "Beginn" due for release on 15 June 2018.

paragraph: Dylan LeBlanc

paragraph: Dylan LeBlanc (born March 9, 1990 in Shreveport, Louisiana) is an American singer-songwriter.

paragraph: Section::::Early life.

paragraph: Dylan LeBlanc is an American musician and artist. Born in Shreveport, Louisiana, LeBlanc began performing at age fifteen. In Shreveport and Muscle Shoals, Alabama, he began performing at local venues. From a young age, LeBlanc watched his father perform at various clubs and bars. He became intrigued with musicianship and the way of life. At the age of nineteen, after parting ways with the band Abraham, he acquired a vast amount of original material. Then, he was signed by Rough Trade Records who released his first album "Pauper's Field".

paragraph: At infancy LeBlanc's mother and father divorced. Until the age of nine, LeBlanc lived with his mother in Blanchard, Louisiana, a small town in the northwest corner of Shreveport. Working full-time cleaning houses, LeBlanc's mother raised Dylan and his two siblings. At the age of ten, LeBlanc relocated to Muscle Shoals so his father could pursue his musical career as a professional country music songwriter. In Muscle Shoals, LeBlanc acquired a unique musical education. He spent late nights watching musicians record at the studios where his father played on sessions for the songs that he wrote.

paragraph: At the age of fourteen he moved back to Shreveport to live with his grandmother and began to attend high school at Captain Shreve High School. While there, LeBlanc met musician Daniel Goodwill and began playing music with an alternative rock band, Jimmy Sad Eyes Blue. Goodwill inspired LeBlanc to begin writing his own music. After a few years of playing with Jimmy Sad Eyes Blue, LeBlanc was forced to attend rehab. Following rehab, rather than returning to high school, LeBlanc decided to pursue a full-time music career.

paragraph: LeBlanc joined the local Muscle Shoals Punk Rock band after the band lost its lead singer to the Sons of Roswell and the band toured throughout the southeast. A few years later, LeBlanc became a co-founder of the band Abraham. He made his first recordings with Abraham at Fame Recording Studios in Muscle Shoals. At that time, the studio's house engineer Ben Tanner (of Alabama Shakes) was a member of LeBlanc's band.

paragraph: Section::::Music career.

paragraph: In early 2010, LeBlanc released his first album "Paupers Field". The song "If the Creek Don't Rise" features Emmylou Harris. In support of the album, LeBlanc toured with and opened for acts such as Lucinda Williams, The Civil Wars, Laura Marling, George Ezra, and Calexico.

paragraph: LeBlanc's second album, "Cast the Same Old Shadow" was released in August 2012. Following its release, LeBlanc played with Bruce Springsteen, First Aid Kit, The Drive By Truckers, and the Alabama Shakes. "The Guardian" review of "Cast the Same Old Shadow" called its songs "as beautiful as they are bleak" and the album "eerie rather than unsettling".

paragraph: Rhys ap Maredudd

paragraph: Rhys ap Maredudd ( 1250 – 2 June 1292) was a senior member of the Welsh royal house of Deheubarth, a principality of Medieval Wales. He was the great grandson of The Lord Rhys (died 1197), prince of south Wales, and the last ruler of a united Deheubarth. He is best known for his leadership of a revolt in south Wales in 1287–88.

paragraph: Because Deheubarth fragmented after the Lord Rhys' death in 1197, Rhys ap Maredudd's father had ruled over a truncated portion of the ancient kingdom. Rhys succeeded his father in 1271 as lord of the region of Deheubarth known as the Cantref Mawr, and considered himself custodian of Dinefwr, the royal capital of Deheubarth. He ruled the Cantref Mawr from 1271, though not under the aegis of the prince of Wales, Llywelyn ap Gruffudd, as his father had, so relations between the two men appear to have been cold. He was among the first Welsh noblemen to submit to the English crown during the Anglo-Welsh war of 1276–77, on the grounds that his claims to the lands of Maenordeilo, Mallaen, Caeo and Mabelfyw, and Dinefwr Castle – all within Deheubarth and ruled by his great-grandfather – would be properly considered. The agreement has been indicative to some historians of Rhys' ambitions to reconstitute Deheubarth as a unified kingdom within the principality of Wales.

paragraph: He continued to exercise power in the Cantref Mawr after Llywelyn's death in 1282, and the execution of the last native prince of Wales, Dafydd ap Gruffudd, the following year. His failure, alone of all the noblemen of Deheubarth, to adhere to Llywelyn and Dafydd's cause in the war of 1282–3 led to king Edward I of England bestowing additional lands on Rhys for his allegiance to the English crown. Edward, however, refused to deliver to Rhys the long sought-after castle at Dinefwr. This state of affairs led Rhys to make Dryslwyn castle his main residence, and it seems likely that he embarked on a substantial building programme there in the late 1270s and early 1280s.

paragraph: Rhys endeavoured to remain loyal to the English crown in the hope he may be restored to more of his former patrimony, but no such offers were forthcoming from the king – instead, Edward forced Rhys to quitclaim the castle to him in October 1283. In 1287 he rebelled and led the capture of most of Ystrad Tywi, the heartland of Deheubarth, including the castles at Dinefwr and Carreg Cennen. Though the revolt was quelled by the autumn, it broke out again in November, and was only brought to a conclusion after a ten-day siege of Rhys' final stronghold, the castle at Newcastle Emlyn, in January 1288.

paragraph: After Newcastle Emlyn's fall Rhys went into hiding; one tradition has him fleeing to Ireland, but this remains unsubstantiated. He was eventually captured in 1291 and executed for treason at York in 1292. His son, also named Rhys, was arrested after his execution, and was imprisoned, firstly in Bristol Castle and then in Norwich; he was still alive in 1340. Late genealogical sources also give a daughter, Morfudd, and an individual occurring in 1289, Maredudd ap Richard [sic] ap Maredudd, may also have been his son.

paragraph: The next Welshman to lead a revolt against the English crown was Madog ap Llywelyn in Gwynedd.
