paragraph: Nicolaas Zannekin

paragraph: Nicolaas Zannekin (born in Lampernisse; died in Cassel, 23 August 1328), was a Flemish peasant leader, best known for his role in the Peasant revolt in Flanders 1323–28.

paragraph: Nicolaas Zannekin was a rich farmer from Lampernisse. During the early 14th century AD, Zannekin served as leader of the revolt in coastal Flanders against the oppressive tax policy of the Count of Flanders Louis of Nevers. Zannekin and his men captured the towns of Nieuwpoort, Veurne, Ypres and Kortrijk. In Kortrijk, Zannekin was able to capture the Count himself. In 1325 attempts to capture Gent and Oudenaarde failed. The King of France, Charles IV of France intervened whereupon Louis was released from captivity in February 1326 and the "Peace of Arques" was sealed. In 1328 hostilities erupted again and the Count fled to France. Louis was able to convince the new king Philip VI of France to come to his aid and Zannekin and his followers were decisively defeated by the French royal army in the Battle of Cassel (1328), where Zannekin himself was killed.

paragraph: Nina Quartero

paragraph: Nina Quartero (March 17, 1908 – November 23, 1985) was an American actress whose career spanned from 1929–43.

paragraph: Section::::Career.

paragraph: Born in 1908 in New York City as Gladys Quartararo, she came from a close family and was the youngest of seven children. She often played supporting roles and sometimes a love interest for the lead male actor. In "One Stolen Night" (1928) Quartero was cast with Betty Bronson and William Collier. The story concerns a British World War I soldier who comes to the assistance of an enslaved dancer. In "Frozen River" (1929) she was paired with Raymond McKee as the motion picture's romantic leads.

paragraph: In 1931 Quartero appeared in "Arizona", an early John Wayne movie. Playing "Conchita," she is a source of strife in Wayne's relationship to the characters depicted by Laura La Plante and June Clyde. She performed again with Wayne in "The Man from Monterey" (1933). Her final screen performances show Quartero playing smaller parts, such as the role of a Cuban dancer in "Torchy Blane in Panama" (1938), a native dancer in "Green Hell" (1940) and a bar-girl in "A Lady Takes a Chance" (1943).

paragraph: Section::::Death.

paragraph: Nina Quartero died in Woodland Hills, California in 1985, aged 78.

paragraph: Section::::Publicity stunt.

paragraph: Quartero once tried a publicity stunt by claiming that she was betrothed to Notre Dame All-American quarterback Frank Carideo. Carideo demanded a retraction of Quartero's engagement announcement, although he admitted he knew her from a time when each resided in Mount Vernon, New York. He had also visited her home, in Beverly Hills, California, prior to the 1930 University of Southern California game, to exchange greetings.

paragraph: Lemi Ghariokwu

paragraph: Lemi Ghariokwu (born Emmanuel Sunday; 26 December 1955), also known simply as Lemi, is a Nigerian artist, illustrator and designer who is most renowned for providing many of the original cover images for the recordings of Nigerian musician Fela Kuti.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.

paragraph: Lemi Abiodun Ghariokwu was born Emmanuel Sunday on 26 December 1955, in Agege, Lagos. He is from Agbor, Delta State but has spent all his life in Lagos, Nigeria. He grew up in Igbobi, Fadeyi in Lagos State with his parents and siblings. During his school days, he often spent his long vacations at Ajegunle. His father wanted him to be a mechanical engineer, so he attended a technical school; Yaba College of Technology Secondary School, where he studied technical and science subjects but this was where his school journey ended. His school journey ended upon completion He decided not to go to school but train himself to master his style of art. Although his formal academic journey ended here, education did not. He read and equipped himself constantly with knowledge and developed his art skill alongside. He grew up listening to Reggae songs and studying metaphysics. His maturity into self and social consciousness was facilitated by Fela Kuti, Peter Tosh, Marcus Garvey, Malcolm X, Kwame Nkrumah and Steve Biko. Lemi is married with four children – Asilem Eweka, Tamara Ajasa, Omotosho, and Odafin-Nevo Shekinah.

paragraph: Section::::Lemi and Fela.

paragraph: Lemi met Fela Kuti in 1974 through Babatunde Harrison (a journalist for "Sunday Punch"). He walked into a pub and stumbled on an art work Lemi did for the pub owner. He requested to see more and he saw one of the illustrations Lemi did of Roforofo Fight. This spurred him to take Lemi to meet Fela. On this first meeting, Fela was impressed with Lemi's work and offered to pay him but he refused the money. This became his ticket into Kalakuta Republic.Lemi's relationship with Fela Anikulapo Kuti was very cordial. He gave Lemi total freedom with his work and thoughts to the level that he just did as he pleased, albeit responsibly, with how and what he wanted to express. Lemi had the rare privilege of putting his photograph and comments on some of the covers and was treated like a son, friend, adviser and comrade by the Afrobeat legend. Ghariokwu's approach to his work with Kuti involved listening to and digesting the music and then expressing his reaction in his paintings, design and comments which provide a high level of detail on the many album covers he delivered.

paragraph: Section::::Career.

paragraph: Section::::Career.:Art.

paragraph: Ghariokwu's work involves a variety of styles, often using vibrant colors and individuated typefaces of his own design. His art is said to be rebellious, comical, political, even erotic but most of all he is a genius in pictorial narration, realism and iconicity. Many of Ghariokwu's cover images echo and sometimes comment on the work and politics of the recordings that they accompany, serving a consciously integrated meta-textual function. He is famous for his captivating and intricate record sleeves designs and he never fails to give life to lyrics through his pictorial images. He created and mastered 26 of Fela's album covers. "The Observer" Music Magazine, UK, called him "King of Covers" during his solo exhibition in the UK in 2004.

paragraph: Asides designing 26 album covers for Fela Anikulapo Kuti. He also designed covers for Osita Osadebe, James Iroha, Bob Marley, Kris Okotie, Lucky Dube, Gilles Peterson, Miriam Makeba and about a hundred other musicians across the globe. In the early 1980s, he was the consulting album cover designer for Polygram (Phonogram+Polydor) records in Nigeria for 11 years. He also printed and designed album covers for many Kennis Music artists, including 2 Face, Lagbaja, Kenny St. Brown, Sound Sultan and many others for 11 years. He has designed over 2000 album covers and facilitated art workshops abroad. He designed for EMI, CBS and Ivory music. He also designed logos for "Fame Weekly", Ivory Music and National Encomium.

paragraph: MTV president Mark Rosenthal commissioned the painting "Everybody's Gotta be Somebody". This inspired a film documentary by Aaron Koenisberg. Ghariokwu's work has attracted much attention in the West and is the subject of various retrospective exhibitions. His painting "Anoda Sistem", created in 2002, is in the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art.

paragraph: Some of Ghariokwu's archive is now in the possession of Punch Records whose CEO Ammo Talwar has invited the academic community to make sense of a utilise this material in productive ways.

paragraph: In 2008, twenty of his artworks were published in "Area 2", a book showcasing 100 emerging and influential graphic artists in the world, published by Phaidon Press in New York.

paragraph: He has also designed the cover of Cassava Republic's republication of "Fela: This Bitch of a Life" - the authorised biography of Fela Kuti. In June 2010, Ghariokwu was commissioned and successfully branded FELA-BUS, a sort of marketing mural-on-wheels, for the producers of the hit Broadway musical "Fela!" in New York.

paragraph: Hermann Ehlers

paragraph: Hermann Ehlers (1 October 1904 – 29 October 1954) was a German politician. He was the 2nd President of the Bundestag from 19 October 1950 to 29 October 1954.

paragraph: He was a member of the Christian Democratic Union.

paragraph: Section::::Early life.

paragraph: Ehlers was born in Berlin on 1 October 1904 to Hermann Heinrich Ludwig Ehlers and Adelheid Louise Auguste (Rabe) Ehlers. His parents moved to Berlin from Sülze shortly before Hermann's birth due to the opening of a job with the post office for the elder Ehlers. Hermann was raised in a bourgeoisie, politically conservative and evangelical environment.

paragraph: Section::::University and Early Political Involvement.

paragraph: After graduating from vocational school in Steglitz in 1922, Ehlers began studying law at the Humboldt University of Berlin. Ehlers' time at college was surely influenced by the revolutions, inflation, unemployment, and political radicalization that characterized Germany following World War I, and Ehler became exceedingly active in student political groups such as the "Verband der Vereine Deutscher Studenten" (United German Student Union).

paragraph: Ehlers began studying at the University of Bonn in the summer of 1924, where he began attending the lectures of the famous but controversial professor of constitutional law, Carl Schmitt. Schmitt, a pioneer in the realm of authoritarian politics, ultimately inspired Ehlers to write his dissertation on the "Essence and Effects of an Imperial Prussian State." Ehlers was also heavily influenced by the early national-socialist Arthur Moeller van den Bruck during this time, and began to sympathize with the German National People's Party, a precursor to the National Socialist German Worker's Party of the 1930s.

paragraph: Section::::Nazi-Era.

paragraph: Although initially enthusiastic about the sense of national awakening that occurred in the wake of the appointment of Adolf Hitler as chancellor, Ehlers was ultimately turned away from the Nazi movement by his Christian beliefs and activity within the church. After passing the state bar exam and receiving the title of "Gerichtsassessor" in July 1931, Ehlers began working in the administration service of the "Evangelischen Kirche der Altpreußischen Union" (Evangelical Church of the Prussian Union). He continued to work in various offices for the church throughout the 1930s.

paragraph: In 1937, Ehlers along with three other members of the Confessing Church were arrested by the Gestapo on charges of "disobedience to the state." These charges stemmed from a decision made by the Confession Church to act against the will of the Reich and publish the names of those who had succeeded from the church for political gain. Since Ehlers was not present at the meeting in which the church decided to publish these names, he was released from prison after only fourteen days. His arrest reflects the fine line he and his fellow church members were walking in relation to the Nazi government. Throughout the remainder of the Nazi-Era Ehlers would continue to identify Hitler's regime as the primary opponent of the church, and viewed the ongoing battle as a necessary one: "We no longer oppose an illegitimate church government, but rather the state. We must go the way of disobedience. This will certainly mean an exasperating fight.".

paragraph: Ehlers was drafted into the military on 23 October 1940, and assigned to anti-aircraft warfare in Hamburg. He became a candidate for the title of officer on 20 February 1942 and was promoted to lieutenant a year later. Throughout his time in the military he continued to commit himself to the council of the Confessing Church.

paragraph: Section::::Post-War.

paragraph: Ehlers decided in August 1946 on the basis of his Christian beliefs to begin working with the CDU, and began his political career as a councilman in Oldenburg. He was elected to the German Bundestag in 1949, and his election as President of the Bundestag in 1950 served as a symbol of the party's commitment to remaining interconfessional.

paragraph: John IV Crispo

paragraph: John IV Crispo or "Giovanni IV" (1500-1564), was the sovereign Duke of the Archipelago, ruling from 1517, when he succeeded Francesco III Crispo (r. 1500–11). He was succeeded in 1564 by the last Duke, Giacomo IV Crispo.

paragraph: Section::::Life.

paragraph: Section::::Life.:Early life.

paragraph: John IV Crispo was the son of Francesco III Crispo; his mother was Taddea Caterina Loredano, sister of Antonio Loredano. His father was reportedly insane, and in 1511, he murdered his mother in a fit of insanity. The murder caused a rebellion among the Naxians who deposed Francesco in favor of his eleven year old son. When told of the rebellion, his father reportedly attacked his son with a knife, and John IV was forced to flee from a balcony to escape his father. The Naxians asked the Republic of Venice for support against Francesco III, and the Venetians had Francesco seized and deported in captivity to Venetian Crete, while John IV was placed under the guardianship of his maternal uncle Antonio Loredano, who ruled the Duchy as Venetian governor during the minority of John IV.

paragraph: Section::::Life.:Early reign.

paragraph: In 1517, John IV Crispo reached legal majority and the Venetian administration of the Duchy under his uncle ceased. Not long after this, he was abducted by a Turkish corsair while hunting. He was released by ransom and the support of Venice, but the ransom had a draining effect on his finances.

paragraph: A Venetian testimony described him: "The young duke, is surrounded by evil counsellors; his island is weak, his castle strong, but badly armed."

paragraph: He made an unsuccessful attempt to incorporate Paros in his domain, but the rights of Fiorenza Sommaripa was protected by his ally Venice.

paragraph: John IV Crispo supported the Knights of Rhodes during the Siege of Rhodes (1522) with provisions.

paragraph: During the first decades of his reign, the Duchy was protected by the peace treaty between the Ottomans and Venice, as Venice was the ally and protector of the Duchy. It was tormented by corsairs, however. In 1532, the Turkish corsair Kurtoglu threatened Naxos, with a fleet of pirates, and Naxos was forced to buy itself free from looting, as was Paros and Sifanto.

paragraph: In 1536, France and the Ottoman Empire made a treaty of alliance against Venice. The following year, war broke out between Venice and the Ottoman Empire, who attacked the Venetian islands and allies in Greece under command of Khaireddin Barbarossa. The Ottoman fleet under Barbarossa conquered one island after another; the Venetian islands of Cerigo and Egina, Cyclades, the principalities of Seriphos, Nio, Namfio, Antiparos, Stampalia and Amorgos, all ruled by Venetian dynasties, were all incorporated in the Ottoman Empire.

paragraph: After the Ottomans took Paros in 1537, they attacked Naxos, the main island of the Duke of the Archipelago. Upon the sight of the Turkish fleet, the inhabitants all took refuge in the capital, leaving goods and chattels behind them. When the Ottomans landed, the island was looted and buildings destroyed.

paragraph: The Turkish commander sent a Christian emissary to the duke with the message:

paragraph: "If, you will voluntarily submit yourself and your islands to the emperor, already master of Asia and ere long of all Europe too, you may easily obtain his favour. If not, then I bid you expect his hatred and indignation. If you surrender, all your possessions shall be saved; but if you refuse, we will send you, your wife and children, your fellow-countrymen and subjects, to destruction to gether. We have a powerful fleet, a vigorous and victorious soldiery, and an admirable siege equipment. Take warning and counsel, then, from the Eginetans, the Parians, and the other lords of the Cyclades. You are fortunate to be able, if you choose wisely, to profit by the misfortunes of your neighbors."

paragraph: As it was not possible to resist, and no help from Europe was expected, John IV Crispo and his council on 5 November 1537 surrendered, promised to pay an annual tribute of 5000 ducats and subject to the sultan, to avoid slavery.

paragraph: Nevertheless, the Ottomans did loot the island of 25,000 ducats' worth of booty, and reportedly the duke "already foresaw that, unless Christendom

paragraph: would unite against the Turk, in a few years' time he would share the same fate which had, eighty years before, befallen the last Greek emperor of Constantinople".

paragraph: The duke sent an appeal to "Pope Paul III.; the Emperor Charles V. ; Ferdinand, King of the Romans; Francois I. of France; and the other Christian kings and princes", in which he urged to them to unite against their common enemy, the Ottoman sultan, who planned to conquer them all by separating them, to avoid sharing his fate. His appeal to the powers of Europe was however unsuccessful.

paragraph: Section::::Life.:Later reign.

paragraph: After the Peace Treaty of 1540 between Venice and the Ottoman Empire, only very few states in the archipelago: the Duchy, Andros and Kythnos remained, and Venice were able to keep only a few of its former colonies, such as Crete and Tenos.

paragraph: With Ottoman support, John IV Crispo deposed the Premarini dynasty from their domain of Zia and bestowed it as well as Mykonos to his daughter upon her marriage to Gian Francesco Sommaripa of Andros.

paragraph: After having become a vassal of the Ottomans, John IV Crispo experienced a growing unpopularity among the Greek population of the Duchy. The rule of the Latin Catholic crusader elite was not popular among the Greek Orthodox population, and when the Latin dynasties themselves were subjected to the Muslim Ottomans, their authority over the Greek quickly deteriorated, particularly since the duke was forced to raise taxes to pay the tributes due to the sultan.

paragraph: In 1559, a rebel by the name Mamusso of Candia proclaimed: "It was disgraceful, that so many valiant Greeks should allow their religion to be insulted and their country to be governed by a mere handful of Franks", and John IV banished the Orthodox metropolitan of Paronaxia for sedition and for supporting this view. The patriarch applied to the Ottoman grand vizier to oust the Catholic hierarchy, who had a bad reputation on the island because of its many scandals, and John IV therefore decided to only appoint local people to Catholic bishops and friars as they would be better accepted.

paragraph: In 1563, the Duchy was described by a Venetian commissioner's report: "The islands of Zia, Siphnos, and Andros have their own lords (the Sommaripa and the Gozzadini), but are tributaries of the sultan; the other sixteen islands are under the duke, but of these, only five — Naxos, Santorin, Melos, Syra, and Paros — are inhabited. The Duke of Naxos, a man of nearly seventy, is, in point of dignity, the Premier Duke of Christendom; but, despite his title, he is duke more in name than in fact; for in all things the Grand Turk and his ministers are practically supreme. Every year, when the Turkish captains arrive, the duke's subjects bring their complaints against him before them, so that he dare not punish his own dependents for their crimes, nor even for their offences against his own person. He dresses and lives like a pauper, without the least pomp or princely expenditure ; for, though he raises from 9000 to 10,000 ducats a year out of his islands, he has to pay 4000 ducats as tribute to the sultan, and his sole thought is how he can save money with which to bribe the Turkish captains and ministers. Under these circumstances, his administration is rather the shadow of a principality than a government."

paragraph: During his later years of reign, he allowed his eldest son Francesco to participate in government, but he predeceased him, and he was therefore succeeded by his second son.

paragraph: Section::::Family.

paragraph: He was married to Adriana Gozzadini, related to the Gozzadini dynasty of Zia, which were traditional allies of Naxos.

paragraph: BULLET::::1. Caterina, married to Niccolo III Gozzadini, Lord of Sifnos and Kythnos

paragraph: Simone Boccanegra

paragraph: Simone Boccanegra (, ; died 1363) was the first Doge of Genoa. He became doge in 1339, but was ousted from power six years later. He regained the position in 1356, retaining it until his death in 1363.

paragraph: His story was popularized by Antonio García Gutiérrez's 1843 play "Simón Bocanegra" and Giuseppe Verdi's 1857 opera "Simon Boccanegra". Note the spellings.

paragraph: Section::::Doge.

paragraph: Boccanegra was elected doge for life on September 24, 1339, as the candidate of the "popular" Ghibelline faction. Boccanegra was opposed by the aristocratic Guelf faction, representing the old mercantile patriciate, which his first actions excluded from public life. With the old patriciate excluded from power, a new class of mercantile houses arose: Adorno, Guarco, Fregoso, and Montaldo.

paragraph: During Boccanegra's dogate, Genoese control was extended the length of both the French and Italian Rivieras, with the exception of the Grimaldi holdings in Monaco and Ventimiglia, and Genoese galleys went to the aid of Alfonso XI of Castile in his struggles against the Saracens.

paragraph: There were constant conspiracies and attempts against Boccanegra's life from the outset. (The first conspirator's head rolled on December 20, 1339.) This led to the establishment of a bodyguard of 103 mounted soldiers. For Boccanegra's security these were drawn from Pisa, the inveterate enemy of Genoa, where, however, Simone's brother Niccolò was "captain of the people", their mother having been a Pisan aristocrat.

paragraph: Section::::Resignation and death.

paragraph: Boccanegra was forced to resign his office at a public meeting he had called, December 23, 1344. He was succeeded by Giovanni I di Murta, who died in early January 1350 and then by Giovanni II Valente, who ruled as chief magistrate, until Boccanegra regained power in 1356.

paragraph: Boccanegra died in 1363, possibly having been poisoned by agents of his enemies.

paragraph: Section::::In culture.

paragraph: The humanist poet Petrarch wrote letters to the people of Genoa and to the doge of Venice appealing to them to end their fratricidal wars and find a common aim. These letters were among Verdi's inspirations for the revision of the opera in 1881.

paragraph: Simone Boccanegra's tomb in the no longer extant church of San Francesco in Castelletto was decorated with a remarkable funeral sculpture, depicting him as if lying in state with extraordinary realism in his features. This sculpture is now in the Museum of Sant'Agostino.

paragraph: John III Crispo

paragraph: John III Crispo () was the eighteenth Duke of the Archipelago, ruling from 1480 when he succeeded his brother, Giacomo III Crispo (r. 1463-1480).

paragraph: Shortly after this, he reincorporated Santorini, which had been ruled by Domenico Pisani, husband of his niece Fiorenza Crispo, into the Duchy. His raising of taxes made him very unpopular among the Greek population of Naxos, however. They rebelled under their own magnates ("archontes"), and the Crispi and the other Catholic families loyal to them were shut in the island's citadel (Kastro) and were besieged by the rebels. Only the timely arrival of galleys from the Knights Hospitaller of Rhodes rescued Crispo and put an end to the revolt.

paragraph: The discontent did not subside, however, and in 1494 John was killed, apparently by poison, by the locals, who sent an embassy to Venice requesting for the Republic to assume control of the island, as John's sole heir, his son Francesco III Crispo, was underage. In the end, Francesco assumed his father's position in 1500.

paragraph: Section::::Family.

paragraph: He was married to a Morosini and had issue:

paragraph: He also had a Mistress, his cousin, Maria Crispo, daughter of Nicholas Crispo Lord of Syros (Sira).

paragraph: They had issue:

paragraph: BULLET::::1. A son, Nicholas Antonio Crispo de Syra (Sira). married to Taddea Sommaripa fled to Rhodes Island circa 1520.

paragraph: 1.6 Giorgio Crispo de Syra (de Sira), de Jure Signore di Syra, (1540 -), Official of the Order of St John in Malta 1550, married (1) (c. 1550) to Norella de Fantino, married Malta (2) (c. 1585) to Leonora N, with issue.

paragraph: Tracey Curtis-Taylor

paragraph: Tracey Curtis-Taylor (born 1962) is a British aviator who has organised and piloted multiple flight expeditions with historic aircraft across Asia, Europe, Africa, Australia and America.

paragraph: Section::::Early life.

paragraph: Curtis-Taylor was born in Stamford, Lincolnshire in 1962 and grew up in Cumbria. She has a twin sister. From 1964 to 1972 the family lived in Canada.

paragraph: She initially became interested in aviation while visiting air shows on the west coast of Canada with her family; her father in particular had a passion for vintage cars and planes. She had her first flying lesson at the age of 16, in British Columbia. She started to fly more regularly while living in New Zealand in the early 1980s, first in Queenstown and later at Ardmore Aerodrome in Auckland. In Auckland she earned her private and commercial pilot's licences, and her instructor rating. While living in New Zealand, she joined the New Zealand Warbirds and began to fly vintage planes and to learn aerobatics and formation flying.

paragraph: Section::::Aviation career.

paragraph: In the late 1990s, Curtis-Taylor was involved in the organization of the Flying Legends show at Duxford Aerodrome, England.

paragraph: From 2008 until 2013 she took part in fly-bys at Old Warden Aerodrome in Bedfordshire, England, often flying a Ryan PT-22 military trainer. In 2011, she flew in the Flying Legends show at Duxford Aerodrome.In December 2012, Curtis-Taylor was part of a four-man Russian crew that was flying an Antonov An-2 biplane from Kiev to deliver in Cape Town, arriving in February 2013. She flew at the Amy Johnson Memorial Air Show at Herne Bay, Kent, England, in 2015 as well as the Cowes Regatta in 2013, 2014 and 2015. Her aeroplane, the Boeing-Stearman "Spirit of Artemis", was on static display at the Royal International Air Tattoo and the RNAS Yeovilton Air Days in 2013, 2014 and 2015, at the Goodwood Revival / Glorious Goodwood in 2014, at the 2015 Dubai Airshow and the 2014 and 2016 Farnborough International Airshow.

paragraph: Section::::Aviation career.:Cape Town to Goodwood flight, 2013.

paragraph: In 2013, Curtis-Taylor flew in a Boeing-Stearman biplane in an eight-week journey, covering over 13,000 km, from Cape Town, South Africa to the Goodwood Aerodrome in West Sussex, England. The journey comprised a total of 38 legs and 110 basic VFR flying hours, and followed the 1928 flight of Mary, Lady Heath, from Cape Town to Cairo, Egypt, travelling over Zimbabwe, Zambia, Tanzania, Kenya, Uganda and Sudan. One section of Lady Heath's flight, the leg through Libya, could not be completed due to security issues.

paragraph: The journey took five years to prepare for, including finding a biplane which would cope with the heat of Africa. After a search in several countries, Curtis-Taylor decided to have a 1942 Boeing-Stearman restored. Designed in the early 1930s, the biplane was similar to Lady Heath's in size and design, but had a more powerful engine, additional fuel tanks, a GPS navigation system, and a transponder for use in controlled airspace. One of the legs of the journey was shared with a retired Royal Air Force Group Captain pilot and historian, Bill Sykes, and sought to locate the site where Lady Heath crash-landed in 1928.

paragraph: She also sourced sponsors for the trip, including Boeing and ExecuJet Aviation Group. The main sponsor was Artemis Investment Management, and the biplane was hence named "Spirit of Artemis."

paragraph: Section::::Aviation career.:Farnborough to Sydney flight, 2015-16.

paragraph: On 1 October 2015 Curtis-Taylor departed from Farnborough, England, flying in "Spirit of Artemis", arriving in Sydney Australia on 9 January 2016. The journey was inspired by pioneer aviator Amy Johnson, who flew solo from England to Australia in 1930. The flight path was across 23 countries in 50 legs. She was accompanied by a small support crew in a modern plane who documented the journey.

paragraph: Several stopovers were scheduled into the flight, often with the aim of introducing Curtis-Taylor to local communities and to inspire others, particularly women. In Dubai, the plane was part of the Boeing display at the Dubai Airshow in the United Arab Emirates, while Curtis-Taylor was a keynote speaker at the International Aviation Women's Association conference.

paragraph: In Pakistan Curtis-Taylor was hosted by Squadron Leader Saira Batool of the Pakistani Air Force, and visited a school in Karachi with Pakistani mountaineer Samina Baig to speak about their adventures and to inspire the children. In Singapore, she met with girls and women involved in the UN Women programme "Girls2Pioneers", which aims to encourage young women into STEM careers.

paragraph: Section::::Aviation career.:US Transcontinental Flight, 2016-17.

paragraph: In spring 2016 Curtis-Taylor started a US Transcontinental Flight, with multiple stops along the historic US Airmail Routes, flying from Seattle to Los Angeles and the Transcontinental route from LA to NY. The trip was cut short by a crash in the desert, at Winslow, Arizona, due to a loss of engine power. The NTSB investigation reported that "a gray / tan liquid was drained from the carburetor". She and her co-pilot were uninjured but the Boeing Stearman was badly damaged. It was airlifted from Phoenix to Hungary, where it was rebuilt in time to attend the 2016 Farnborough International Airshow, which celebrated Boeing's centenary year. She returned with her Boeing Stearman to LA in June 2017 and finished the flight across the USA with a finale at the American Airpower Museum at Republic Airport NY.

paragraph: This completed her World Flight, flying across five continents. On both US tours the Stearman biplane was shipped across the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans, as it does not have the fuel range or instrumentation to cover such distances.

paragraph: Section::::Awards.

paragraph: In October 2014, the Light Aircraft Association awarded Curtis-Taylor the Bill Woodhams Trophy for a "feat of navigation, aviation, tenacity and endurance" on her flight from Cape Town to the United Kingdom. In October 2016 members of the association voted to rescind the award. In a written statement, Curtis-Taylor said that the rescission vote was the result of an online media campaign to discredit her. In newspaper reports Curtis-Taylor has denied making "false assertions about the nature of my flights" and has stated 'To suggest I have hoodwinked the public, deceived all my sponsors, the media, everyone, is just disgraceful'. Two resolutions were offered at the 2018 annual general meeting to review this decision, but both were turned down; in reply, Ms. Curtis-Taylor announced termination of her LAA membership.

paragraph: In October 2015 she was appointed an Honorary Lieutenant Commander in the Royal Navy Reserve.

paragraph: In May 2016, the Air League presented her with a framed address in recognition of her flight from Farnborough to Sydney.

paragraph: In July 2016 the University of Portsmouth, England, awarded her an honorary doctorate degree. Also in 2016, the Honourable Company of Air Pilots awarded her its Masters Medal for her work in "raising awareness of science and technology in general, and aviation in particular, amongst young women across the world".

paragraph: Henry Vogel

paragraph: Henry Vogel (June 15, 1863 – June 17, 1925) was an American actor and bass-baritone singer who originated several roles on the Broadway stage during the first two decades of the Twentieth Century.

paragraph: Section::::Early life.

paragraph: Henry Vogel was born Heinrich Vogelhut in Mindszent, Hungary. Ignoring his parents' wishes that he enter the clergy, he left Hungary for America in 1882.

paragraph: Section::::Career.

paragraph: After his arrival in America, he obtained US citizenship and attended the Balatka Academy of Musical Art, founded by Hans Balatka in Chicago during the late 1880s. There (as Henry Vogelhuth), he performed in several of its productions before moving to New York City. In 1890 (as Henry Vogel) he appeared in an English-language version of Jacques Offenbach's "The Brigands" starring Lillian Russell, and in 1903, he landed a role in the Broadway production of "Nancy Brown". Other productions followed, including "Paris by Night" (1904), "Miss Dolly Dollars" (1905), and Victor Herbert’s "The Wizard of the Nile" (1908).

paragraph: It was announced in the press in 1907 that Byron Ongley (co-author of "Brewster’s Millions") had written a vaudeville skit for him, "Vogel, the Boy Detective, and His Shadow, Nearly" – the shadow to be played by a midget.

paragraph: Back on the Broadway stage in 1909, he played Herr Pappelmeister to Walker Whiteside’s David Quixano in the original 1909 production of Israel Zangwill’s play, "The Melting Pot". His turn as Pappelmeister received acclaim, and the production itself was favorably reviewed by then US president Theodore Roosevelt.

paragraph: Vogel went on to prominent roles in several other Broadway plays and operettas, including "The Firefly" (1912), "Marie-Odile" (1915), and "Arms and the Girl" (1916). Health issues caused him to move to California to pursue work in films, but continued ill health forced his retirement and return to New York around 1920.

A few songs from the Tokyo, Japan show of this tour appear in the bonus features section of their live DVD, "Boozed, Broozed, and Broken-Boned". In 2004, Inez recorded the track "Crazy or High" with Black Label Society for their studio album release "Hangover Music Vol. VI".

paragraph: Section::::Career.:Heart (2002–2006).

paragraph: Following Layne Staley's death in April 2002, Inez joined Heart and toured with the band from 2002 through 2006. He appears on Heart's 2003 release, "Alive in Seattle", a double CD live recording that documents a 2002 concert at Seattle's Paramount Theatre.

paragraph: Inez also played bass and tambourine on Heart's 2004 album "Jupiters Darling".

paragraph: Section::::Career.:Alice in Chains reunion (2005–present).

paragraph: In 2005, Jerry Cantrell, Inez, and Sean Kinney reunited to perform a benefit concert in Seattle for victims of the tsunami disaster that struck South Asia in 2004. By 2006 Inez, along with the surviving members of Alice in Chains, Jerry Cantrell and Sean Kinney, set out for a world tour with various guest singers to fill in for the late Layne Staley. The main singer for the band's tour was William DuVall. The band was also featured on "Decades of Rock: Heart and Friends" where they performed "Would?" with Phil Anselmo and "Rooster" with William DuVall. DuVall would go on to be made the permanent singer of the group, which has since released three studio albums with Duvall and toured extensively since 2006.

paragraph: Section::::Guest appearances.

paragraph: In late 2002 Inez was considered to replace Jason Newsted in Metallica.

paragraph: Francesco Parisi (economist)

paragraph: Francesco Parisi (born May 31, 1962) is a legal scholar and economist, working primarily in the United States and Italy. He is the Oppenheimer Wolff & Donnelly Professor of Law at the University of Minnesota Law School and Distinguished Professor of Economics at the University of Bologna. Parisi specializes in the economic analysis of law. His research uses formal models and technical results in areas from international law to behavioral law and economics to tort law.

paragraph: Section::::Education.

paragraph: Parisi earned his law degree at the University of Rome in 1985. He later studied at the University of California, Berkeley, where he obtained an LL.M. (1988) and J.S.D. (1990). He taught briefly at Louisiana State University Law Center before moving to George Mason University School of Law. While an associate professor at George Mason, Parisi obtained an M.A. in economics at Berkeley, later earning a Ph.D. in economics from George Mason University.

paragraph: Section::::Career.

paragraph: After lecturing briefly at University of California, Berkeley (1990–91) and Louisiana State University Law Center (1991–93), Parisi was a member of the faculty of George Mason University School of Law from 1993 to 2006. The University of Minnesota Law School recruited Parisi in 2006.

paragraph: At the University of Minnesota, Parisi has taught methodological courses in law and economics, including seminars in game theory, public choice, and social choice. Since 2002, Parisi has split his time between teaching in the United States and Italy. He taught at the University of Milan from 2002 to 2006 and has taught at the University of Bologna since 2006, where he remains a member of the economics faculty.

paragraph: Parisi's has written on a number of legal topics. His early writings included historical and comparative analyses of the evolution of the law; more recent research has been entirely in the domain of law and economics. Parisi's work is often technical, relying on mathematical models and formal proofs to establish a practical point about the incentive structure of the law. In particular, his work often focuses on logical symmetries, secondary effects, and evolutionary changes in the law.

paragraph: Parisi is a founding member of both the American Law & Economics Association and Italian Society for Law and Economics. He has served as editor-in-chief of the Review of Law and Economics, and is general editor (with Richard Posner) of the reference series "Economic Approaches to Law" and "Research Handbooks in Law and Economics".

paragraph: Berengar II of Sulzbach

paragraph: Count Berengar II of Sulzbach (c. 1080–83 – 3 December 1125), sometimes known as Berengar I of Sulzbach, was Count of Sulzbach in Bavaria.

paragraph: Berengar was a leader of the reform party. He sided with Pope Gregory VII during the Investiture Controversy in opposition to Henry IV, Holy Roman Emperor, and supported Henry V in his successful rebellion against his father. He is known as the founder of several abbeys.

paragraph: Section::::Family.

paragraph: Berengar's grandfather was Gebhard I, Count of Sulzbach (died 1071), who married the daughter of Count Berengar I of Sulzbach.

paragraph: Gebhard I may have been the son of Herman IV, Duke of Swabia (died 28 July 1038), but this is not certain.

paragraph: Gebhard I was father of Gebhard II.

paragraph: Berengar was the son of Count Gebhard II of Sulzbach (died 1085) and Irmgard of Rott (died 14 June 1101).

paragraph: His sister Adelaide may have married Count Siboto II of Weyarn-Falkenstein, who was later the advocate of Baumburg Abbey.

paragraph: The Weyarns at first supported Henry IV in his conflict with Pope Gregory VII during the Investiture Controversy.

paragraph: Later Siboto II was associated with the pro-papal side that included the Sulzbachs.

paragraph: Around 1099 Berengar married Adelaide, widow and heiress of Count Udalric of Passau, nicknamed "the very rich".

paragraph: Count Udalric's cousin, the Count palatine Rapoto of Bavaria, had died around the same time as Udalric and had been succeeded by Berengar's relative Diepold III, margrave of the Nordgau in Bavaria, who inherited the titles of Count of Cham and Margrave of Vuhburg.

paragraph: Berengar was married to Adelheid von Lechsgemünd for over six years until her death in 1105. This marriage seems to have been childless.

paragraph: Berengar's second wife was Adelheid von Dießen-Wolfratshausen, with whom he had six children,

paragraph: Four of these children married into the highest circles.

paragraph: His son, Count Gebhard III of Sulzbach, married Matilda, daughter of Henry IX, Duke of Bavaria.

paragraph: His daughter Gertrude was the wife of King Conrad III of Germany.

paragraph: Her sister Luitgarde married Godfrey II, Count of Louvain and Duke of Lower Lorraine.

paragraph: In 1143 his daughter Bertha, later called Irene, married the Emperor Manuel I Komnenos of Byzantium (c. 1120–1180).

paragraph: She died about 1158.

paragraph: Section::::Advisor to Henry V.

paragraph: On 5 February 1104 Count Sigehard of Burghausen was murdered, and Henry IV, Holy Roman Emperor, was blamed for the crime.

paragraph: Berengar was one of the Bavarian Nordgau princes who held the emperor responsible for the murder.

paragraph: The others were Diepold III of Cham-Vohburg and Otto, count of Kastl-Habsberg.

paragraph: They encouraged Henry V to rebel against his father.

paragraph: The three were closely associated with the Gregorian party of Bishop Gebhard of Constance.

paragraph: The noble reform party thought that the Emperor Henry IV was leading the people to destruction and only the true church, the church of the Gregorian and Monastic Reform, could point the way to salvation.

paragraph: On 12 December 1104 King Henry V with a small retinue left his father's camp in Fritzlar and took refuge in Bavaria, the start of the rebellion.

paragraph: During the struggle from 1104 to 1106 Berengar was often with Henry V and one of his key advisers in affairs of the kingdom.

paragraph: In 1106 Henry IV took refuge from his son in Regensburg, calling for assistance from the Czech Duke Bořivoj. The Czech army came up, but when they saw that Henry V was supported by Margrave Diepold III and Count Berengar they retreated.

paragraph: The emperor continued his flight, and died at Liège on 8 August 1106.

paragraph: Between 1108 and 1111 Berengar took part in the campaigns in Hungary and Poland and on Henry's expedition to Rome.

paragraph: From January 1116 to autumn 1119 there is no sign of his presence at the royal court of Henry V.

paragraph: It is believed that during this time Count Berengar dedicated his absence from the royal court to increasing his monasteries.

paragraph: Henry V died on 23 May 1125. Berengar was present at the emperor's funeral, and was one of the signatories to a letter inviting the leading men of the kingdom to attend a diet on 25 August 1125 to elect a successor. The first signatory was Adalbert I, Archbishop of Mainz, the archchancellor of Germany. The other secular signatories were Henry IX, Duke of Bavaria, Frederick II, Duke of Swabia and Godfrey, Count Palatine.

paragraph: Berengar died on 3 December 1125 and was succeeded by his son Gebhard III.

paragraph: The son and heir of Gebhard III died on an expedition to Rome in 1167.

paragraph: Frederick I, Holy Roman Emperor, nephew of Conrad III, bought the Sulzbach lands for his two sons, Frederick and Otto.

paragraph: Section::::Religious foundations.

paragraph: As one of the leaders of the ecclesiastical reform circle in Upper Bavaria, Swabia and Saxony Berengar was one of the founders of the Abbeys of Berchtesgaden, Kastl, and Baumberg.

paragraph: Section::::Religious foundations.:Berchtesgaden Provostry.

paragraph: Berengar's first monastery foundation, the Berchtesgaden Provostry, was commissioned by his mother Irmgard of Rott. According to legend, it was founded in fulfillment of a vow of thanksgiving for the salvation of his father, Gebhard II of Sulzbach, after a hunting accident at the rock on which the Berchtesgaden Collegiate Church stands today.

paragraph: His mother Irmgard owned Berchtesgaden from her first marriage with Count Engelbert V of Chiemgau, and as his widow had made a vow to have a house built for use by an "assembly of clergy of communal life" ("congregatio clericorum communis vite"). Due to various worldly affairs Irmgard did not have the time to found the congregation, so shortly before her death she commissioned Berengar with the task, to promote his and her salvation.

paragraph: In the year of his mother's death, 1101, Berengar appointed the canon Eberwin as the first provost.

paragraph: Under his guidance, he sent three Augustinian canons and four lay brothers to Berchtesgaden from Rottenbuch Abbey, the mother abbey of the Augustinians in Altbayern and a center of the canonical reform movement.

paragraph: Berengar and his half-brother Kuno von Horburg-Lechsgemünd then requested papal confirmation for the founding of the monastery.

paragraph: Probably in 1102 and no later than 1105 Kuno von Horburg and Eberwin traveled to Rome on behalf of Berengar.

paragraph: Pope Paschal II had very likely on 7 April 1102 placed the Count's monastery under his protection.

paragraph: He confirmed this privilege in writing to Berengar and Kuno von Horburg.

paragraph: According to the "Fundatio monasterii Berchtesgadensis" the Augustinians at first found the lonely wilderness of Berchtesgaden, with its terrifying mountain forests, and permanent ice and snow a very inhospitable place, and sought somewhere more suitable.

paragraph: Section::::Religious foundations.:Kastl Abbey.

paragraph: After the Lateran council of March/April 1102, on 12 May 1102 Berengar was granted the privilege of founding the St Peter monastery in Kastl according to the Hirsauer reform.

paragraph: Berengar co-founded the abbey with Count Friedrich of Kastl-Habsberg and his son Otto.

paragraph: Diepold III of Cham-Vohburg also assisted with the foundation.

paragraph: Section::::Religious foundations.:Baumburg Abbey.

paragraph: In 1102 Paschal gave Berengar the privilege of founding Baumburg Abbey.

paragraph: In 1104–06 Berengar was deeply involved in the struggles of Henry V against his father Emperor Henry IV, and was unable to implement the wishes of his wife Adelheid von Lechsgemünd to spend the inheritance from her first two marriages to establish a Reform congregation.

paragraph: Adelheid therefore felt compelled before her death (1104/1105) to place her husband and a dozen selected ministers under oath to establish a regular canons monastery to the north of lake Chiemsee and to annex the existing church of St. Margaret in Baumburg.

paragraph: But to found two monasteries within three or four years and to participate in the reform of the Kastl Abbey at the same time gave him great difficulty.

paragraph: He therefore followed the urging of his church officials and expanded Baumburg with goods from Berchtesgaden so he would have at least one well-equipped monastery, and would meet the wishes of his mother and first wife.

paragraph: In 1107, or at the latest in 1109, Eberwin and his monks from Berchtesgaden founded Baumburg Abbey in the north of the present Traunstein district.

paragraph: Later, probably around 1116, Eberwin returned to Berchtesgaden where the first major land clearing was undertaken and the Augustinians settled permanently.

paragraph: The independence of Berchtesgaden was not secure, since Gottschalk (ca. 1120–1163), provost of Baumburg, was not willing to accept the loss of the Berchtesgaden assets.

paragraph: After Berengar died in 1125, Gottschalk challenged the legality of the separation and asked Archbishop Conrad I of Salzburg for an injunction to re-merge the properties.

paragraph: Conrad finally confirmed the independence of both monasteries in 1136, which was confirmed by Pope Innocent II in 1142.

paragraph: Polaire

paragraph: Émilie Marie Bouchaud (14 May 1874 – 14 October 1939), better known by her stage name Polaire, was a French singer and actress. She was known for her extremely tight corset, dubbed the wasp waist, reportedly measuring less than 16 inches (41 cm), and her eccentric stage presence, which generated mixed receptions.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.:Early life.

paragraph: Bouchaud was born in Agha, Algiers, French Algeria on 14 May 1874; according to her memoirs she was one of eleven children of whom only four – Émilie, her two brothers Edmond and Marcel, and a sister, Lucile – survived infancy. Their father died of typhoid fever when Émilie was five and their mother, unable to support them alone, temporarily placed the four children with their grandmother in Algiers. Marcel died shortly after. In 1889, after their mother began a relationship with a man named Emmanuel Borgia, the family moved with him to Paris. There her mother found work, and also tried to find domestic employment for her daughter. Eventually however, after her sister Lucile fell sick and died, Émilie was sent back to her grandmother in Algiers.

paragraph: Borgia, her mother and only surviving sibling Edmond remained in Paris. Emilie did not settle, and in September 1890 ran away to rejoin her mother in France. Afraid however of meeting up with her mother's partner, Borgia, (whom she accuses in her memoirs of having tried to molest her), she first approached her brother Edmond. He had already gained some fame as a café-concert singer under the name of Dufleuve, and with his help she auditioned successfully for her first job as a café singer, aged about 17.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.:Career.

paragraph: Polaire's career in the entertainment industry stretched from the early 1890s to the mid-1930s, and encompassed the range from music-hall singer to stage and film actress. Her most successful period professionally was from the mid-1890s to the beginning of the First World War.

paragraph: Adopting the stage name "Polaire" ("Pole Star"), she worked first as a music-hall singer and dancer: one of her earliest hits was performing the French version of Ta-ra-ra Boom-de-ay. Having quickly made a name for herself – Toulouse-Lautrec portrayed her on a magazine cover in 1895 – Polaire briefly visited New York, appearing there as a "chanteuse" at various venues, but without achieving major success. On her return to Paris she extended her range and went on to act in serious theatre. Her first major appearance was in 1902, at the Théâtre des Bouffes Parisiens, in the title role of a play based on Colette's "Claudine à Paris". A comedic actress, Polaire became one of the major celebrities of her day and later, as cinema developed, appeared in several films.

paragraph: In 1909, Polaire was cast in her first silent-film role in "Moines et guerriers". In 1910 she returned to the stage, appearing in London and later in New York. (1910 was the date of her first visit to the U.S. as a celebrity, and publicity releases did not mention her earlier appearances in 1895.) In 1912, back in France, she was offered a role in a film by the up-and-coming young director Maurice Tourneur. She appeared in six of his films in 1912 and 1913. She then returned to the musical stage and began a second tour of the United States, after which she appeared at the London Coliseum. In 1915 Polaire made frequent appearances in London, and involved herself in wartime fund-raising efforts. She returned to films in 1922, but in the declining years of her career had to be content with lesser roles.

paragraph: Her precise filmography is difficult to determine due to confusion between her and a younger Italian actress with the screen name "Pauline Polaire", who also featured in early films. Her last film appearance was in 1935 in "Arènes joyeuses", directed by Karl Anton.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.:Appearance.

paragraph: She was skilled in using her appearance to attract attention. In her early days as a café singer in the 1890s, she wore very short skirts and also cropped her hair, fashions that did not become common in the rest of society until the 1920s. A brunette, she wore unusually heavy eye makeup, deliberately evocative of the Arab world. At a time when tightlacing among women was in vogue, she was famous for her tiny, corsetted waist, which was reported to have a circumference no greater than . This accentuated her large bust, which was said to measure . She stood tall. Her striking appearance, both on and off stage, contributed to her celebrity.

paragraph: For her 1910 supposed "debut" in New York she provocatively allowed herself to be billed in the advance publicity as "the ugliest woman in the world" and departing on a transatlantic liner she was apparently accompanied by a "black slave". Returning to America in 1913, she brought a diamond-collared pet pig, Mimi, and wore a nose-ring. Talk of her figure and her lavish overdressing in fur coats and dazzling jewels preceded her appearances wherever she went. Jean Lorrain said of her:

paragraph: She was a frequent subject for artists; those who painted her include Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, Antonio de La Gandara, Leonetto Cappiello, Rupert Carabin, Mme. Dreyfus Gonzales and Jean Sala.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.:Death.

paragraph: Polaire's finances suffered from a series of actions by the French tax authorities and she struggled to find stage or screen roles as she aged. She may have suffered from depression.

paragraph: She died in 14 October 1939, aged 65, in Champigny-sur-Marne, Val-de-Marne, France. Her body was buried at the Cimetière du Centre, in the eastern Paris suburb of Champigny-sur-Marne.
