paragraph: Alice Robie Resnick

paragraph: Alice Robie Resnick (Born 1939 in Erie, Pennsylvania) is a former Justice of the Supreme Court of Ohio. In 1988, she was the second woman in Ohio elected and third to serve on the state bench, and was reelected in 1994 and 2000. Her career has included experience as a private attorney, assistant county prosecutor, municipal judge, and as a judge on the Ohio Sixth District Court of Appeals.

paragraph: One of her most controversial opinions was the 4-3 majority ruling that Ohio's school funding system was unconstitutional.

paragraph: In 2000, she was opposed by Terrence O'Donnell, in a massive, though unsuccessful, campaign.

paragraph: On January 31, 2005, she was arrested by the Ohio State Highway Patrol for DUI. Several motorists had used cell phones to call in a Jeep Grand Cherokee showing erratic driving. State police confronted her in a gas station and she refused a field sobriety test, resulting in the one-year automatic suspension of her license. After refusal, she ignored police orders to remain at the gas station and drove off. She was pulled over a few minutes later and failed a sobriety test. Justice Resnick registered a Blood Alcohol Concentration of 0.22, nearly three times the legal limit in the state of Ohio. A dashboard camera recorded the incident, and much of the audio showing Justice Resnick trying to use her office to get out of the DUI charge appeared on the internet. She was convicted of DUI, a first degree misdemeanor, required to take a three-day alcohol education program, and her license was suspended for six months, overriding the automatic suspension of one year. She was not charged with failure to comply with a police officer, resisting arrest, or fleeing from police. A new state law also implemented a mandatory jail sentence for offenders who refuse a sobriety test and show greater than a 0.17 BAC. The incident and penalty sparked a wave of public criticism, especially after portions of the 90-minute videotape surfaced on various internet video websites.

paragraph: On January 17, 2006, Resnick announced that she would not seek a fourth term, thus stepping down from the bench on January 1, 2007.

paragraph: Resnick was selected in 1995 to the Ohio Women's Hall of Fame.

paragraph: Thomas Matthews (engineer)

paragraph: Sir Thomas Matthews (8 August 1849 – 13 January 1930) was a British civil engineer, who was a notable builder of lighthouses. He was the brother of Sir William Matthews, also a prominent civil engineer. During the late 19th and early 20th century Thomas Matthews was the Engineer-in-Chief of Trinity House.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.

paragraph: Thomas Matthews was born in Penzance, Cornwall, where he was the son of the Borough Surveyor, John Matthews. From 1868 to 1871 he assisted his father in providing drinking water for Penzance and the sea and harbour defences. For the following two years he practised as an architect and surveyor in Penzance and in 1874, he entered the employment of the United Kingdom's lighthouse service, Trinity House, as an assistant engineer. He succeeded Sir James Nicholas Douglass as Engineer-in-Chief when the latter retired in 1892.

paragraph: Matthews went on to design over a dozen lighthouses for Trinity House. He also worked on illumination systems, notably a lamp designed to burn oil vapour. Matthews' most significant achievement was the construction of Beachy Head Lighthouse. Completed in 1902, it was the last rock lighthouse built by Trinity House. The work took two years to finish; it involved building a coffer-dam and an aerial ropeway from the cliffs to transport materials.

paragraph: Bentor

paragraph: Bentor ( 1463 – February 1495), sometimes also called Ventor, Bentore, Benytomo, or Bentorey, was the last mencey or king of Taoro from November 1494 until his suicide in February 1495. A native Guanche prince in the Canary Islands during the second half of the 15th century, Bentor was the eldest grandson (in some sources, son) of Bencomo, the penultimate mencey (or king) of Taoro. Taoro was one of nine menceyatos, or kingdoms, on the island of Tenerife in the Canary Islands before the Spanish conquest of the islands. Bentor's mother was probably named Hañagua, although this is unclear. He succeeded his grandfather as mencey upon his father's death in November 1494, and led the kingdom until his own death by suicide four months later in February 1495. Bentor had five siblings: one sister (Dácil) and four brothers (Ruiman, Rosalva, Chachiñama, and Tiñate).

paragraph: Section::::Biography.

paragraph: Bentor was born in about 1463 in Tenerife to Adjona. Bentor, then the Crown Prince, participated in many battles against the invading Spanish in 1495 alongside his grandfather Bencomo, mencey of Taoro. Bencomo was killed during the Battle of Aguere in November 1495 and Bentor, being the eldest son, was chosen as his successor. His uncles Tinguaro and Adjona may also have participated in the battle, however Adjona did not perish like Tinguaro and lived on until 1507. Shortly after the Battle of Aguere, Alonso Fernandez de Lugo sent Fernando Guanarteme to negotiate with Bentor, but he refused to hand over the territory.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.:Death and legacy.

paragraph: Following the disastrous Second Battle of Acentejo which occurred in December 1494 the Guanche forces were severely decimated. The forces took refuge on the slope of the Tigaiga mountain after the battle, where Bentor committed suicide in February 1495 by jumping off of the hill and tumbling down the mountainside (it was seen as a way to keep one's honor instead of surrendering). As a consequence, the Guanche resistance completely collapsed and the remaining menceys surrendered in the Peace of Los Realejos. The Canary Islands are now a Spanish autonomous community.

paragraph: The Hotel Rural Bentor on the island of Tenerife is named after him.

paragraph: Makhdoom Muhammad Hashim Thattvi

paragraph: Makhdoom Muhammad Hashim Thattvi (1692- 1761) (, ) was an islamic scholar, author, philanthropist, and a spiritual leader who was considered a saint by his followers. He was the first ever translator of the Quran in Sindhi language.

paragraph: Section::::Activities.

paragraph: He also ran the office of the Chief Justice and stayed the Governor of Sindh and connected areas of Punjab in the Kalhora era. Makhdoom was also a feudal lord and tribe chieftain. He was the leading Islamic theologian and the Imam of the Grand Mosque at Thatta. He engaged himself in missionary duties and was famous among Sufis. He wrote "Madah Nama Sindh" (a book about Islam in Sindhi society and culture), "Dirham al-Surrat Fi Wada al-Yadayn Taht al-Surrah" (a book based on the Hanafi theology), "Al-Baqiyat as-Salihat" (a biography of great Islamic figures) and other books. His religious dictums shaped Sindhi culture and Islamic tradition in Sindh. He was believed to be a leading expert authority on the Fatwa-e-Alamgiri. He belonged to the Qadri order of Sufism, and followed the Hanafi school of thought. He has a large following throughout the Muslim world specially in Sindh and Thatta district in specific.

paragraph: Section::::Family lineage.

paragraph: Thattvi descends from Al-Harith ibn Abd al-Muttalib of the Quraysh tribe, to which the Islamic prophet Muhammad also belonged:

paragraph: BULLET::::1. Muhammad Hashim

paragraph: BULLET::::2. Abdul Ghafur

paragraph: BULLET::::3. Abdul Latif

paragraph: BULLET::::4. Abdur Rahman

paragraph: BULLET::::5. Khairuddin Harsi

paragraph: Section::::Early life and education.

paragraph: Makhdoom belonged to a very traditional, religious and educated family and received basic education from his father Makhdoom Abdul Ghafoor. His father taught him to memorise and recite the Quran. He further learned Persian language and Fiqh at home and travelled to Thatta the centre of education, poetry, spiritual grooming and culture of the time for receiving higher education. It was in the time of the Kalhora dynasty when Sindh was at its peak in reference to rich culture and economic progress. Scholars, poets, intellectuals were found in abundance and such people were very much obeyed, trusted and respected. Thatta had been entirely unique as in the year 1111 Hijri, it had 400 high schools and 1400 mosques and is considered a unique city even today. All this attracted Makhdoom Hashim to come to Thatta and attend Arabic classes from Makhdoom Saeed.

paragraph: Job, Archbishop of Esztergom

paragraph: Job (; died 1 February 1204) was a Hungarian prelate at the turn of the 12th and 13th centuries, who served as Bishop of Vác from 1181 to 1183, and as Archbishop of Esztergom from 1185 until his death.

paragraph: Section::::Early life.

paragraph: Job was born in the early 1150s. His origin is uncertain. Around 1180, he studied at the Abbey of St Genevieve in Paris, alongside several other Hungarian clergymen. Its abbot, Stephen wrote a letter to Béla III of Hungary to inform him that one of those clerics, Bethlehem, died of illness, while his companions, Job, Adrian and Michael were present on his deathbed. Bethlehem's parents, former judge royal Lawrence, who has been in exile in Austria for years, and his wife Christina also received a letter from the abbot, who assured them that their son died without leaving a debt, and Stephen thanked the donation sent earlier for the abbey (golds, chasubles, horses and banners). When Stephen's letters were first published in 1661, which collection later became part of the "Patrologia Latina", historiographer Masson misspelled Job's name to "Jacobus" (James), but Hungarian archivist György Györffy corrected the mistake, after examining the original codes. As Bethlehem was of noble origin, Györffy supposed that Job was also a highborn cleric, who were sent by Béla III to France to benefit from higher education. Béla's first spouse was Agnes of Antioch, who played a decisive role in the spread of French cultural patterns in the Kingdom of Hungary.

paragraph: Returning home, Job was elected Bishop of Vác in 1181, while Adrian became chancellor in the royal court (Béla was responsible for the establishment of the Royal Chancery) and later served as Bishop of Transylvania. Their other mate Michael also died in Paris, not long after Bethlehem, according to the St Genevieve Abbey's funerary texts. Job served as Bishop of Vác at least until 1183, but it is possible, he held the dignity until 1185, when he became Archbishop of Esztergom. His successor, Boleslaus of Vác appeared in contemporary sources only since 1193. Taking advantage of the emerging anarchy in the Byzantine Empire, Béla advanced as far as Niš and Sofia in the first half of 1183. In Sofia, he seized the casket containing the relics of St. John of Rila, and ordered it "to be transported with great honors to his land and to be laid down with honor in the church" of Esztergom, according to the saint's "Life from the Sofia Prologue". However both archbishops Nicholas and Job objected against the king's intention to introduce the veneration of an Eastern Orthodox saint. John's relics remained in Esztergom for four years before being returned to Sofia in 1187. Historians Gyula Moravcsik and Tamás Bogyay argued the remains were sent back as a sign of friendly gesture to the Byzantine Empire.

paragraph: Section::::Archbishop.

paragraph: A non-authentic charter styled him archbishop already in 1175. Historian Attila Zsoldos analyzed the document in detail and revealed the contradictions between archontological data, which still exist despite that historiographical efforts which tried to correct the charter's date to 1183 or 1185. The forgery, which was written in the name of King Béla III, contains several factual errors, while other dates are incompatible with each other. Job first appeared as Archbishop of Esztergom in 1185 (without the mention of his see). Soon, Job and Adrian were jointly sent to the Kingdom of France as representants of Béla III, in order to find a bride for the king (whose wife Agnes had died in the year 1184). They negotiated with King Philip II concerning the issue. Finally, Béla married Henry II's widowed daughter-in-law, Margaret of France, in the summer of 1186. She was the daughter of Louis VII of France and sister of Philip II.

paragraph: Immediately after his election, Job strived to strengthen his paramount position within the domestic church hierarchy. Upon his request, Pope Lucius III confirmed all of the privileges and freedoms of the Archdiocese of Esztergom in April 1185. This privileges were confirmed by Pope Celestine III in 1188 and 1191, as well as Pope Innocent III in 1198 too. Pope Celestine stressed the role of the Archbishop of Esztergom as one of the three requirements at the coronation of the Hungarian monarch in his December 1191 charter (the last three coronations were performed by the Archbishop of Kalocsa for various reasons). Around 1188, the St. Adalbert Cathedral burned down. Job decided to rebuild the basilica "even with greater splendor" to represent its indispensable role in the Church of Hungary. The new Gothic style cathedral was consecrated in 1196.

paragraph: Job was a staunch supporter of the royal authority during Béla's rule. He was sent to numerous diplomatic missions during his two decades of episcopate. Béla III and Job welcomed Frederick I, Holy Roman Emperor in the summer of 1189 in Esztergom, when German crusaders marched through Hungary into the Third Crusade. Later in that year, Job mediated a peace treaty between his monarch and Casimir II of Poland after their war for the sphere of influence over the Principality of Halych. Job's relationship with the Byzantine Empire and the Eastern Orthodox Church was ambiguous; he escorted Béla's daughter Margaret to marry to Byzantine Emperor Isaac II Angelos. There Job had a doctrinal dispute with the Emperor, regarding the use of drowned animals and the relationship of the Son and the Holy Spirit, representing the Latin rite viewpoint. The dispute was narrated by a letter of Demetrios Tornikes. Tamás Bogyay highlighted there is no sign of hostile tone in the text, reflecting the mutual esteem between Job and Isaac. The historian considers the Emperor acknowledged his theological education and prestige with his participation in the dispute, and Job presumably spoke Greek fluently. Supporting King Béla, Job had an important role in the canonization of Saint Ladislaus I of Hungary and the spread of his cult since 1192. Alongside his monarch, Job took the cross as a token of his desire to organize a crusade to the Holy Land in 1195. However, he could not fulfill his oath due to Béla's death on 23 April 1196.

paragraph: Emeric succeeded his father, whose whole reign was characterized by his struggles against his rebellious younger brother, Duke Andrew. Initially, Job was considered the king's supporter. For instance, his archdiocese was granted the two-thirds portion of the customs in Esztergom by Emeric in 1198, which was confirmed by Pope Innocent in the next year. Emeric also donated the royal castle of Esztergom to the archdiocese in the same charter, in addition to the customs of Pressburg (today Bratislava, Slovakia) and Szeben (today Sibiu, Romania).

paragraph: During the last years of Job's episcopate, the tension between the sees Esztergom and Kalocsa over the diverging views in the question of primacy jurisdiction reached its peak, especially when John, a loyal partisan of Emeric was elected Archbishop of Kalocsa in 1202. In the same time, Job's relationship with Emeric has deteriorated drastically, most likely because he remained neutral in the power struggle between the king and his younger brother, and stayed away from the secular affairs. Some scholars argue Job pronouncedly turned against the monarch and joined Duke Andrew's court, as Emeric referred to Job as his "enemy" in his letter to Pope Innocent around 1202, when offered the royal provostries and abbeys under the supervision of Esztergom to Rome directly. Under these conditions, the rivalry between Esztergom and Kalocsa became part of a wider secular power struggle in Hungary. An episode of this conflict was recorded, when Job's episcopal blessing in a royal church, which laid in the territory of the Archdiocese of Esztergom, was interrupted by John, who marched into the cathedral with his entourage and blessed the people himself. On another occasion, John entrusted his two suffragan bishops to consecrate churches which belonged to Esztergom. John unduly wore pallium and used archiepiscopal cross during Masses. Under the pretext of Bogomilism along the southern boundary, Job requested Pope Innocent to receive a mandate of apostolic legate regarding the territory of the whole kingdom (i.e. also the Archdiocese of Kalocsa), when personally visited the Roman Curia in Palestrina (or Praeneste). Upon receiving Emeric's letter, Innocent refused this, but issued three bulls on 5 May 1203, which confirmed the privileges of the Archdiocese of Esztergom, including the right of coronation, delivering sacraments to the monarch and the royal family, the superintendence over the royal provostries and churches, ecclesiastical jurisdiction over the royal officials and the collection and reallocation of the tithe from the royal treasury. Job died on 1 February 1204 in Esztergom. After nearly two-year period of "sede vacante", his rival John succeeded him as Archbishop of Esztergom in late 1205.

paragraph: Section::::Porta speciosa.

paragraph: The porta speciosa was the main entrance of the Esztergom Cathedral, built by Béla III and Job. The iconography of the gate's tympanum depicts that Saint Stephen offers Hungary to the Virgin Mary in the company of Adalbert of Prague and – anachronistically –

paragraph: King Béla and Archbishop Job, in accordance with the narration of Stephen's "Greater Legend". It is the first known contemporary depiction of an archbishop of Esztergom. The porta speciosa of Esztergom testified Byzantine influence, which spread during the reign of Béla III. According to historian Tamás Bogyay, that gate could be the first such monumental sacred building in Cis-Alps, which dedicated to Mary. The epigraph of ""iura sacrorum"" reflected the primacy of Esztergom in the Hungarian church organization, in accordance with Job's endeavors.

paragraph: Francesco I Gattilusio

paragraph: Francesco I Gattilusio (died 6 August 1384) was the first member of the Gattilusio family to rule the Aegean island of Lesbos as vassal of the Byzantine emperor.

paragraph: Section::::Freebooter.

paragraph: The Gattilusio family came from the Republic of Genoa. The parents of Francesco and his brother Niccolò are not known, although based on the heraldic evidence of their inscriptions, Anthony Luttrell argues that their mother was a member of the Doria family.

paragraph: Francesco enters historical record as a freebooter or pirate. In 1354, Francesco and his crew landed on Tenedos. The island served at the time as residence to John V Palaiologos, one of three co-emperors to the throne of the Byzantine Empire, the others being his father-in-law John VI Kantakouzenos and brother-in-law Matthew Kantakouzenos. John V and his in-laws were in conflict at the time.

paragraph: John V and Francesco entered an alliance to enable John to regain control of Constantinople. In return he would be given the hand of Maria Palaiologina, a sister of John V, in marriage.

paragraph: In early December 1354, Francesco led a fleet to Constantinople. They approached the city late at night and pretended that they were in need of assistance. They claimed that one of their ships was sinking and requested help in salvaging the cargo from shipwreck, and promised a share of it to the sentries of the city for their help. Seeing a chance to profit, the sentries opened a gate. Francesco then led about five hundred armed men through the gate, took command of the Walls of Constantinople and roused the citizens from their sleep with shouts in favor of John V. Riots in favor of John V soon started. By 4 December 1354, John VI resigned his title and retired to a monastery.

paragraph: Section::::Lord.

paragraph: Francesco had managed to regain control of the capital for John V and removed his main rival from the political field. John V completed their agreement by making Francesco his brother-in-law.

paragraph: On 17 July 1355, Francesco was further rewarded by the title of Archon (Lord) of Lesbos. John V had offered him the island as dowry for his sister.

paragraph: In 1366, Francesco joined with Amadeus VI, Count of Savoy and Louis I of Hungary in a campaign to restore the stability of the Byzantine Empire. Together they captured Gallipoli from Murad I of the Ottoman Empire after two days of fighting.

paragraph: In 1369, Francesco accompanied John V on his trip to Rome, along with Demetrios Kydones, which concluded with John V personally accepting the Catholic faith on Thursday 18 October, in an unsuccessful effort to attract Western support for the greatly weakened Empire.

paragraph: On 6 August 1384, an earthquake affected Lesbos. Francesco I, Maria and their two eldest sons, Andronico and Domenico, were all killed. In a letter he wrote from Constantinople soon after the event, Kydones describes how the two dead sons' prospective brides arrived from afar and searched among the ruins for the bodies of the intended husbands they had never seen. However the third son Jacopo survived and succeeded in the rule of Lesbos under the name "Francesco II".

paragraph: Eugene Melnyk (born May 27, 1959) is a Canadian businessman who has resided in Barbados since February 1991. He is the current and sole owner, governor, and chairman of the Ottawa Senators professional ice hockey franchise of the National Hockey League (NHL). He is the founder, former chairman, and CEO of Biovail Corporation which was acquired by Valeant Pharmaceuticals. "Canadian Business" magazine ranked Melnyk 79th with a net worth of $1.21 billion on its 2017 list of Canada's 100 wealthiest people. He is also one of the richest residents of Barbados.

paragraph: Section::::Background.

paragraph: Melnyk is of Ukrainian heritage.

paragraph: Section::::Business career.

paragraph: In 1982, Melnyk founded medical publishing company Trimel Corporation, which was sold to Thomson Publications (part of The Thomson Corporation) in 1989. Melnyk then founded Biovail Corporation, a specialty pharmaceutical company, in 1989. During his time as chairman and CEO of Biovail, revenues grew from $19 million in 1995 to $1.067 billion in 2006. One of Biovail's strategies was to look for drugs with expired patents, then reinvent them with the company's proprietary technologies. One example was producing drugs that had controlled-release features that let patients take the drug once a day instead of several times. Melnyk left Biovail on June 30, 2007 following news that the United States Securities and Exchange Commission planned to take legal action against him over "trading and reporting ownership positions in Biovail securities."

paragraph: In March, 2008, the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) sued Melnyk and Biovail for accounting fraud. The SEC press release claims that Melnyk and other executives "repeatedly overstated earnings and hid losses in order to deceive investors and create the appearance of achieving earnings goals. When it ultimately became impossible to continue concealing the company's inability to meet its own earnings guidance, Biovail actively misled investors and analysts about the reasons for the company's poor performance." Biovail settled for $10 million US.

paragraph: In May 2011, Melnyk was banned from senior roles at public companies in Canada for five years and fined $565,000 by the Ontario Securities Commission. Melnyk also settled with the SEC, and agreed to pay a civil penalty of $150,000, in addition to $1 million previously paid to settle other claims with the SEC.

paragraph: Section::::Sports franchise owner.

paragraph: On August 26, 2003, Melnyk bought the Ottawa Senators hockey club of the NHL by purchasing the team and their arena, Corel Centre. He is the sole owner and holds the titles of governor and chairman.

paragraph: Melnyk's first sports franchise purchase was the St. Michael's Majors of the Ontario Hockey League in 2001. Until 2007, the club played at the St. Michael's College School's Arena in Toronto, but it relocated to Mississauga, Ontario. As there was a club already in Mississauga, the Mississauga IceDogs, Melnyk purchased the IceDogs in 2006 and resold them in 2007 to move the Majors into the IceDogs home arena. The new ownership of the IceDogs relocated the team to St. Catharines, Ontario and the team is now known as the Niagara IceDogs. On May 10, 2012, Melnyk sold the St. Michael's Majors (now called the Mississauga Steelheads) to Elliott Kerr for an undisclosed price.

paragraph: On September 16, 2008, Melnyk proposed plans for an Ottawa Major League Soccer professional soccer team, and a new soccer-specific Ottawa Soccer Stadium but could not obtain support from Ottawa's municipal Council. Instead, the Mayor and Council chose a different site for the Canadian Football League's Ottawa Redblacks franchise.

paragraph: In 2009, Melnyk served as chairman of the IIHF World Junior Championship.

paragraph: In January 2012, Melnyk hosted the National Hockey League All-Star Game at his arena, the Canadian Tire Centre. In 2005 and 2008, he hosted the NHL Entry Draft.

paragraph: In June 2013, Melnyk announced the naming rights change of his arena from Scotiabank Place to Canadian Tire Centre.

paragraph: As of November 2016 the Ottawa Senators are valued at $355 million USD. Melnyk has repeatedly stated that the team is not for sale and he would never consider selling it.

paragraph: Relations between some of the Senators' fan base and Melnyk deteriorated in the 2017–18 season. On September 11, 2018, the Senators published a video where Melnyk outlined the franchise's plans for a rebuild. The video faced some criticism from the media for its awkward presentation. Melnyk faced further criticism shortly after the video was released, when the Senators traded their team captain, Erik Karlsson, to the San Jose Sharks on September 13th. Relations between fans and Melnyk further deteriorated at the 2019 trade deadline when the Senators traded away their star forwards, Matt Duchene, Ryan Dzingel, and Mark Stone. Despite promising the fan base to try to sign as many of the players as possible, conflicting statements were given by Melnyk, who was quoted saying that trading away Mark Stone had been "[planned] for some time" as part of the rebuild.

paragraph: Mulla Ali Kani

paragraph: Mulla Ali Kani (, (1888–1805) was an Iranian Shia Muslim scholar and philosopher involved with the Iranian Constitutional Revolution. He was a pupil of Muhammad Hasan al-Najafi. Kani was in charge of religious affairs of Iran, and had a great influence on people and even on Naser al-Din Shah Qajar and his court.

paragraph: After the singing of the Reuter concession in 1873 which in practice made Iran a colony of Britain, Mulla Ali Kani wrote a letter to the King, Nasir al-Din Shah, and opposed this contract. He wrote that what Reuter gains through this contract is even more than what Britain gained in India. He also wrote that when there is a flaw in governmental affairs, it is religious scholars' duty to refer to it, regardless of whether the king favors this approach, or tries to correct it or not. He asked the king in strong terms to cancel the contract and dismiss the prime minister, who was behind the signing of the contract. As a result of these objections, as well as foreign objections to the contract, Nasir al-Din Shah eventually canceled the contract and removed the minister from the office.

paragraph: Kani died in Tehran in 1888 and was buried in the shrine of Shah-Abdol-Azim shrine in Rey.

paragraph: Xie Jin (mandarin)

paragraph: Xie Jin (, 1369–1415), courtesy name Dashen (大紳), art name Chunyu (春雨), was a Chinese scholar-official and poet during the Ming dynasty.

paragraph: He served as Chief Grand Secretary (首輔), the most senior member of the Grand Secretariat during the reign of Yongle Emperor. He was very knowledgeable and was appreciated by the Emperor. In 1403, he was ordered to write a compilation of every subject and every known book of the Chinese. Xie was appointed chief compiler of this encyclopedia, later named the "Yongle Encyclopedia", and completed it by 1408.

paragraph: Yongle Emperor wanted to depose the Crown Prince Zhu Gaochi (later Hongxi Emperor), and asked him for advice. Xie said: "The Crown Prince has benevolence and filial piety. Throughout the empire all hearts turn to him." (皇太子仁孝 天下歸心) Yongle didn't reply. Then Xie said: "What a wise grandson!" (好聖孫) Xie hinted that Yongle had high hopes that Zhu Zhanji (later the Xuande Emperor), the eldest son of Gaochi, might be an excellent monarch in future, so Gaochi should be the next emperor. Gaochi remained in his position, but Xie was hated by the emperor's favorite son, Zhu Gaoxu. In 1406, Yongle decided to attack Vietnam. Xie strongly opposed the idea, but the emperor rejected his advice. He was dismissed from the Grand Secretariat and banished first to Guangxi and then to Jiaozhi (Vietnam).

paragraph: Xie was accused by Zhu Gaoxu and thrown into the prison in 1410. Five years later, he was murdered in Nanjing by Embroidered Uniform Guard. His family was exiled to Liaodong.

paragraph: Xie was rehabilitated by Chenghua Emperor, and given the posthumous name Wenyi (文毅) in 1465.

paragraph: Jacques Dubois

paragraph: Jacques Dubois (1478 – 14 January 1555), also known as Jacobus Sylvius in Latin, was a French anatomist in Paris. Dubois was the first to describe venous valves, although their function was later discovered by William Harvey.

paragraph: Section::::First years.

paragraph: The origins of this anatomist are vague. He was probably born in 1478 in Loeuilly, a small town near Amiens, the seventh in a family of fifteen. His father had been a weaver. At a young age he studied Greek with Hermonymus of Sparta and Janus Lascaris, Hebrew with Vatable and mathematics with Le Fevre, and gradually became a leading figure in that Humanistic movement in Paris, where he was famous for his excellent knowledge of these disciplines.

paragraph: Section::::Early grammar of French.

paragraph: Dubois was the author of the first grammar of the French language to be published in France. The title of this work was "In linguam gallicam isagōge, una cum eiusdem Grammatica latino-gallica, ex hebræis, græcis et latinis authoribus" [Introduction to the French language, with a Latin-French grammar of the same, based on Hebrew, Greek and Latin authors], published in Paris in early 1531, less than a year after the very first French grammar, by John Palsgrave, was published in London.

paragraph: Section::::From philosophy to medicine.

paragraph: Dubois was known for his hard work, and eloquence. In Paris, he studied languages and mathematics; but feeling that the rewards were inadequate, Dubois abandoned scholarship for medicine. He acquired his anatomical knowledge thanks to Jean Fagault, a famous physician of Paris and also dean of the Faculty of Medicine. While studying under Fagault, Dubois began his career as a professor with a course explaining the work of Hippocrates and Galen. These lessons concerned anatomy and were taught at the College de Tréguier. The success of his lectures turned out to be so remarkable that the faculty of the University of Paris protested that he had not yet obtained a college degree. For this reason Sylvius went to Montpellier, where in November 1529, he received his medical degree at the age of 51 years.

paragraph: Once he obtained his degree he returned to Paris, but he was again blocked by the Faculty, which decreed that the anatomist should have obtained a baccalaureate before returning to his lessons. On 28 June 1531 Sylvius obtained the Baccalaureate degree and was able to resume its course in anatomy. In 1550, when Vidus Vidius departed for Italy, he was appointed to succeed him as Professor of Surgery in charge of the new Royal Collège de France. This appointment was granted by Henry II of Valois.

paragraph: Sylvius was an admirer of Galen, and interpreted the anatomical and physiological writings of that author in preference to giving demonstrations from the subject. He died in Paris on January 14 of 1555.

paragraph: Section::::Sylvius as a teacher.

paragraph: Sylvius was not only an eloquent professor, but also a demonstration teacher. He was the first professor to teach anatomy of a human corpse, in France.

paragraph: His biggest intellectual flaw was his blind reverence for the ancient authors. He treated the writings of Galen as if they were wholly sacred, he would believe that if a corpse showed structures different from those described by Galen, the error was not in the texts, but in the corpse, or the structure of the human body that had changed over the centuries. In one of his works, "Ordo et Ratio Ordinis Legendis Hippocratis et Galeni Libris", Sylvius says that the anatomy of Galen was infallible, that his treatise "De Usu Partium" was divine and that further progress in anatomy would have been impossible.

paragraph: Vesalius, who was his (frustrated) pupil, states that his manner of teaching was calculated neither to advance the science nor to rectify the mistakes of his predecessors. A human body was never seen in Dubois' anatomical theatre. The carcasses of dogs and other animals were the materials from which he taught. It was so difficult to obtain human bones, that Vesalius and his fellow-students had to collect them themselves from the Cimetière des Innocents and other cemeteries. Without these, they must have committed numerous errors in acquiring the first principles.

paragraph: Though Jean Riolan (1577–1657) contradicted these comments and accused Vesalius of ungratitude, it is certain that the frustrations that Vesalius experienced were the basis for which he later traveled to Padua and became a famous anatomist himself. Only in Italy were the opportunities of inspecting the human body frequent enough as to facilitate the study of the science. Charles Estienne also attacked his old teacher and assured that Sylvius was greedy. Some other pupils of Sylvius defended his teaching and work, specially Louis Vasse and Michel de Villeneuve, the latter was considered by Johann Winter von Andernach (colleague and friend of Sylvius) the best galenist of Paris and second anatomist after Vesalius. Louis Vassé denounced the attacks of Vesalius and Estienne, and affirmed they had learnt all they knew by Sylvius lessons. Vasse explains the nature of Sylvius' influence over his unruly audience this way:

paragraph: ""This depended not so much on his splendid use of the Latin tongue as upon the exceptional clarity of his thought. He was, moreover, never tired of teaching and so taught that none of his students ever tired of learning. He had an astonishing power of enabling them to grasp and see quite clearly that which a moment before had seemed impenetrable and terribly involved.""

paragraph: This period was a time of fierce debate between Galenists and the new body of thought on anatomy. The conservative Riolan attacked William Harvey with equal fervour.

paragraph: Section::::Contributions to anatomy.

paragraph: Sylvius made a valuable service by giving a name to the muscles, which until then had simply been referred to by numbers. These numbers were arbitrarily assigned by different authors. He was the first anatomist to publish descriptions of satisfactory pterygoid process and the sphenoid bone and bone clinoideo tear. He gave a good description of the sphenoid sinus in an adult, but denied its existence in children. Sylvus also wrote about the vertebrae, but described incorrectly the sternum. Although the cerebral aqueduct (Aqueduct of Sylvius) and Sylvian (lateral) sulcus of the brain have been said to be his contributions to anatomy, the aqueduct was described by Galen nearly 1300 years before, albeit the name aqueduct in this context was first mentioned by another Sylvius (Franciscus Sylvius, 1614-1672), who apparently also described the sulcus which bears his name.
