paragraph: Joseph Drew

paragraph: Joseph Drew (21 May 1814 – 3 December 1883) was an English newspaper editor, steamboat proprietor, art collector, writer and lecturer.

paragraph: Section::::Life.

paragraph: Joseph Drew was born in Deptford, son of Joseph Drew (c. 1779–1847) of the Royal Navy dockyard service and Martha Gale (1781–1854). The family probably came to London from Dorset shortly before Joseph was born, as his elder siblings Sarah and Henry had been baptised in Wyke Regis. Following the shutting down of Deptford Dockyard in 1830, his family moved to Melcombe Regis where he worked in his father's confectionery business. He later started a grocery business (with a partner Joseph Maunders) which went bankrupt. In about 1838 he moved to Guernsey with his wife and their four young children and set up his own confectioners in St. Peter Port, but returned to Weymouth a few years later.

paragraph: Drew founded the newspaper "The Southern Times", published in Weymouth in 1850, which he edited until 1862. For most of his life he was active in local affairs, becoming a JP and town councillor.

paragraph: In 1852, by reason of his wealth and influence as a newspaper proprietor, Joseph Drew became a partner in the company "Cosens & Co." which operated paddle steamers from Weymouth. He became chairman of Cosens in 1874.

paragraph: Drew was, from 1854, proprietor of the Victoria Hotel (at Augusta Place on Weymouth Esplanade), where in 1857 he opened a refreshment room and art gallery (the Great Western Picture Saloon) displaying his valuable collection of works 'by the great Masters and modern artists'. Drew's collection included 'the equestrian Vandyke' (sic); and there were pencil sketches by Turner, Rembrandt, Rubens, Paolo Veronese, Andrea del Sarto and Titian. Mentioned is 'Danaë and her golden shower'. There were also paintings by Sir David Wilkie, Danby, Niemann, Webster and Wilson. Joseph Drew sold, from his collection, Nicholas Poussin's "The Testament of Eudamidas" to the Rev. Thomas Mawkes for £2000. In 1859 it was reported that he had purchased a portrait of Shakespeare by 'Zucchero'. Drew's wide knowledge of art and his concern for it is shown in his 1871 address to the British Archaeological Association, "Art Treasures and their Preservation", published fully in his "Synopsis of Fourteen Popular Lectures".

paragraph: Joseph Drew died at Weymouth in 1883 and was buried in Melcombe Regis Cemetery. There is a memorial to him, his wife and two children near the west wall of the cemetery.

paragraph: Section::::Works.

paragraph: Drew wrote and lectured on a wide range of subjects in the fields of art, science, history and religion.

paragraph: In 1851 he strongly criticised Pope Pius IX with an essay "Popery against the Pope, an Appeal to Protestants" and satirical verse "The Vision of the Pope; or A Snooze in the Vatican". These works were prompted by the re-establishment of the Catholic hierarchy in 1850, when the Pope created 12 Catholic dioceses in England and appointed diocesan bishops.

paragraph: Between 1866 and 1872 he delivered a series of free lectures which he described in "A Synopsis of Fourteen Popular Lectures". In 1871 he gave a lecture to the British Archæological Association on "Art Treasures and their Preservation".

paragraph: He ventured into historical fiction with his short novel "The Poisoned Cup", published in many editions between 1876 and 1962. His last written work, "The Rival Queens", factually written in a popular style, is an account of the eventful but troubled life of Mary Queen of Scots, and her unhappy fate in the hands of her English cousin Queen Elizabeth.

paragraph: Section::::Family.

paragraph: When he was only 18 Joseph Drew married Eliza Monday (1808–1846), six years his senior, at St Bride's Church, Fleet St, London. They had four children: Mary Jessie Drew (1833–1872), Joseph William Drew (1834–1859), Alice Martha Drew (1836–1897) and Fanny Eliza Drew (1839–1871, maternal grandmother of Agnes Humbert). His wife died at the age of 38, and two years later he married her younger sister Caroline Agnes Monday (1820–1893), a school teacher, at St Mary Magdalen Bermondsey, by whom he had two children Caroline Agnes Drew (1850–1933) and musician Harry Drew (1851–1895).

paragraph: Drew's daughter Fanny Eliza married organist William James Rooke and their daughter Mabel Wells Annie Rooke was the mother of the heroine of the French Resistance Agnès Humbert. Drew's son Harry married missionary teacher Georgiana Down and their son Harry Guy Radcliffe Drew was the father of architect Jane Drew.

paragraph: Mary Poonen Lukose

paragraph: Mary Poonen Lukose was an Indian gynecologist, obstetrician and the first female Surgeon General in India. She was the founder of a "Tuberculosis Sanatorium" in Nagarcoil and the "X-Ray and Radium Institute", Thiruvananthapuram, served as the head of the Health Department in the Princely State of Travancore and was the first woman legislator of the state. The Government of India awarded her the fourth highest Indian civilian award of Padma Shri in 1975.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.

paragraph: Mary Lukose, née Mary Poonen, was born to a rich family as the only child on 2 August 1886 in Aymanam—a small village later made famous by being the setting of the novel "The God of Small Things"— in the princely state of Travancore (modern day Kerala), in the British Indian Empire. Her father, T. E. Poonen, was a medical doctor, the first medical graduate in Travancore and the Royal Physician of Travancore state. Her mother had health issues due to which Mary was brought up by British governesses. She completed her schooling at Holy Angel’s Convent High School, Thiruvananthapuram and topped the matriculation examination. However, she was denied admission for science subjects at the Maharajas College, Thiruvananthapuram (present day University College Thiruvananthapuram) for being a woman and had to pursue studies in history on which she graduated (BA) in 1909 as the only female student of the college and the first woman graduate of Madras University which Maharajas College was affiliated to. As Indian universities did not offer admission to women for medicine, she moved to London and secured MBBS from the London University, the first woman from what would later become Kerala to graduate in medicine. She continued in the UK to obtain MRCOG (gynecology and obstetrics) from Rotunda Hospital, Dublin and underwent advanced training in pediatrics at the Great Ormond Street Hospital. Later she worked in various hospitals in the UK and simultaneously pursued music studies to pass the London Music Examination.

paragraph: Mary returned to India in 1916, the year her father died, took up the post of an obstetrician at the "Women and Children Hospital", Thycaud in Thiruvananthapuram and also worked as the superintendent of the hospital, replacing a westerner who had returned to her native place after marriage. A year later, she married Kunnukuzhiyil Kurivilla Lukose (K. K. Lukose), a lawyer who would later become a judge of the High Court of Travancore. During her tenure at Thycaud Hospital, she initiated a midwifery training program for the children of local midwives in order to win over their support and is known to have delivered her first born at the hospital. In 1922 she was nominated to the legislative assembly of Travancore, known as "Sree Chitra State Council", thus becoming the first woman legislator in the state. Two years later, she was promoted as the "Acting Surgeon General" of the state of Travancore, making her the first woman to be appointed as the surgeon general in India. She continued at the hospital till 1938 during which time she was nominated to the state assembly continuously till 1937. In 1938, she became the Surgeon General, in charge of 32 government hospitals, 40 government dispensaries and 20 private institutions. She is reported to have been the first woman to be appointed as the surgeon general in the world; the first woman surgeon general in the US was appointed only in 1990.

paragraph: Mary was one of the founders of the Thiruvananthapuram chapter of the Young Women's Christian Association (YWCA) and became its founder president in 1918, a position she retained till 1968. She served as the Chief Commissioner of the Girl Guides in India and was also a founder member of the Indian Medical Association and the Federation of Obstetric and Gynaecological Societies of India (FOGSI), which started as "Obstetric and Gynaecological Society". As the surgeon general of the state, she is reported to have founded the Tuberculosis Sanatorium in Nagarcoil, one of the first sanatoriums in India, which later grew to become the Kanyakumari Government Medical College. She also founded the "X-Ray and Radium Institute" in Thiruvananthapuram.

paragraph: Mary and Lukose had two children, the eldest, Gracie, a medical doctor and a former assistant professor at Lady Hardinge Medical College, New Delhi and the youngest, K. P. Lukose, former consul general, permanent representative of India to the United Nations and the Indian ambassador to Bulgaria. Her husband died in 1947 and her two children also preceded her in death. She died on 2 October 1976 at the age of 90. She was a recipient of the title, Vaidyasasthrakusala, from Chithira Thirunal Balarama Varma, the last Maharaja of Travancore. The Government of India awarded her the civilian honour of Padma Shri in 1975.

paragraph: Theodor Kleinschmidt (6 March 1834 in Wolfhagen – 10 April 1881 in Utuaia, Bismarck Archipelago) was a German trader, explorer and naturalist.

paragraph: Kleinschmidt studied commerce and went to the United States of America in 1843. He launched out in business in Saint Louis (Missouri) but went bankrupt and had to leave for Australia then on to Fiji to flee his creditors. But his trade with the natives was not brilliant, in particular because of the economic crisis of 1874. The Museum Godeffroy of Hamburg then offered a new opportunity to him. The institution charged him with collecting natural history specimens, fauna and flora, in the Solomon Islands and New Hebrides, territories largely unexplored hitherto. He was assassinated by natives in 1881. He was the uncle of the priest and ornithologist Otto Kleinschmidt (1870–1954).

paragraph: The pink-billed parrotfinch ("Erythrura kleinschmidti") was named in his honour by Otto Finsch.

paragraph: Francisco Correa de Arauxo

paragraph: Francisco Correa de Araujo (or Arauxo, or Acebedo) (1584–1654) was a Spanish organist, composer, and theorist of the late Renaissance.

paragraph: Section::::Life.

paragraph: Correa de Araujo was born in Seville. Like most Spanish organists from this era, details of his life are clouded by obscurity. For some time even the years of his birth and death were disputed. His musical background is unclear; he claimed to have learned theory by studying the works of Francisco de Peraza and Diego del Castillo. In 1599 he received an organ appointment in Seville, but became embroiled in a lawsuit with rival Juan Picafort, which delayed confirmation of this appointment for six years. In 1608, he was ordained as a priest. He maintained the post at Seville until 1636. Several times he applied unsuccessfully for other positions, and once again in 1630, he became embroiled in lawsuits which culminated in a brief period of imprisonment. In 1636, he left Seville and took up a post at Jaén Cathedral. In 1640, he was appointed as a prebendary at Segovia Cathedral, and remained there for the last fourteen years of his life. He died at Segovia in abject poverty.

paragraph: Section::::Works.

paragraph: Correa's writings make reference to two other publications (a "Libro de versos" and a book on music theory), that were not published yet by that time; however, all his surviving works are contained in a single publication entitled "Libro de tientos y discursos de música practica, y theorica de organo intitulado Facultad organica", published in 1626. This publication serves not only as a book of compositions, but as a treatise on music theory and performance practice, and it is one of the most important works of its kind to emerge from Spain in the 17th century. Correa's compositions take advantage of all the devices available to Spanish organists of the time, most notably the "medio registro," or divided keyboard, an innovation unique to the Iberian peninsula which appeared towards the end of the 16th century, while his theoretical writings give great insight into his ideas of harmony and counterpoint.

paragraph: The "Libro de tientos" contains 69 works, of which 62 are "tientos" (that is, fantasias), ordered by increasing levels of difficulty - an indication that the purpose behind this work was at least partly pedagogical. By way of contrast with the works of his Portuguese contemporary, Coelho, Correa's works are considerably shorter and show a stronger tendency towards monothematicism. He employs virtuosic figurations (the so-called "glosa") in his works to a much greater extent, often at the expense of contrapuntal development; after the initial exposition, restatements of the theme are rare, and thematic development and use of contrapuntal devices such as inversion or augmentation are almost non-existent. Correa's harmonic language, while not devoid of tonally suggestive progressions, is quite distinctly modal and represents a continuation of the idiom established by Cabezón and Aguilera de Heredia.

paragraph: The music of Correa is not devoid of innovation. Correa makes use of many devices unique to Spanish organ music of this period: unusual sonorities such as the augmented triad, unusual rhythmic groupings, and a notable dissonance which he vigorously defends, referred to as "punto intenso contra remisso": the simultaneous sounding of a note and its chromatic alteration (e.g., C and C#). The theoretical aspect of this work also discusses ornamentation, "notes inegales," registration, and use of the different modes and key signatures.

paragraph: Correa's organ music was inspired by the unique tonal qualities of Spanish organs, unequal temperament, and such devices as the divided keyboard. Modern-day recording technology, coupled with an increased interest in studying ancient organs and building newer instruments to replicate them, has made these works more readily accessible to both performer and listener.

paragraph: A complete edition of Correa's works has been compiled by Macario Santiago Kastner and released by Masters Music Publications.

paragraph: David Purley

paragraph: David Charles Purley, GM (26 January 1945 – 2 July 1985) was a British racing driver born in Bognor Regis, West Sussex, who participated in 11 Formula One World Championship Grands Prix, debuting at Monaco in 1973.

paragraph: Purley is best known for his actions at the 1973 Dutch Grand Prix, where he abandoned his own race and attempted to save the life of fellow driver Roger Williamson, whose car was upside down and on fire following a serious accident. Purley was awarded the George Medal for his courage in trying to save Williamson, who suffocated in the blaze.

paragraph: During pre-qualifying for the 1977 British Grand Prix Purley sustained multiple bone fractures after his car's throttle stuck open and he crashed into a wall. His deceleration from 108 mph (173 km/h) to 0 in a distance of 26 in (66 cm) is one of the highest G-loads survived in a crash. He scored no championship points during his Formula One career. He died in a plane crash, having retired from motorsport and taken up aerobatics, in 1985.

paragraph: Section::::Early life.

paragraph: Purley's father was Charles Purley, the founder of LEC Refrigeration. Birth and death records show that his father's name was originally Puxley but he preferred the name Purley. His mother was Welsh, having been born in the small village of Cwmfelinfach. David went to school at Seaford College and then Dartington Hall School in Devon.

paragraph: Section::::Career.

paragraph: Purley was an officer in the British Army, serving with the Parachute Regiment in Aden, Yemen. He later raced in various series with an AC Cobra and a Chevron, before racing in Formula Three, winning three times at Chimay between 1970 and 1972.

paragraph: In 1972 Purley was one of two drivers to attempt to race the Connew Grand Prix car in its original Formula One configuration. He was entered at the end of season World Championship Victory Race at Brands Hatch but did not start. Purley had asked for an electrical "kill" switch to be fitted to the steering wheel, but this malfunctioned on the warm up lap, the engine stopped, and the car was retired.

paragraph: In 1973 Purley hired a March and with backing from his family's refrigeration company he made an attempt at Formula One.

paragraph: At the 1973 Dutch Grand Prix, upon witnessing a crash which left fellow British driver Roger Williamson trapped in his overturned and burning car, Purley abandoned his own race and attempted to save Williamson, who was participating in only his second Formula One race. Purley later recalled that upon arriving at the scene, he heard Williamson crying for help as the fire began to take hold. Purley's efforts to right the car and extinguish the flames were in vain as he received no help from nearby track marshals or emergency workers, in spite of attempts to encourage them, and other passing drivers, to come to his aid; Williamson died from asphyxiation. The marshals were not wearing fire resistant clothing and the passing drivers assumed that Purley was attempting to extinguish his own car, having escaped a fiery crash unharmed.

paragraph: A sequence of pictures taken by photographer Cor Mooij of the accident won the Photo Sequences category of that year's World Press Photo. Later, Purley was awarded the George Medal for his rescue attempt. The story, and film footage of the rescue attempt, feature in a 2010 BBC documentary entitled "".

paragraph: Apart from a one-off participation with Token at his home Grand Prix in 1974, Purley stayed out of Formula One for a few years, preferring to compete in Formula Two driving Chevrons and Marches for Hong Kong-based millionaire Bob Harper, and Formula 5000 where he won the British Championship in 1976 in a Chevron powered by the Cosworth GA 3.4-litre V6 engine.

paragraph: In 1974 Purley won the Brighton Speed Trials driving a Trojan-Chevrolet T101, winning again the following year in a Chevron-GA B30.

paragraph: He returned to Formula One in 1977 with his own LEC chassis designed by Mike Pilbeam and run by Mike Earle. It was this car in which he suffered serious injuries in an accident during practice for that year's British Grand Prix. He survived an estimated 179.8 g when he decelerated from 108 mph (173 km/h) to 0 in a distance of 26 inches (66 cm) after his throttle became stuck wide open and he hit a wall. This was the highest measured g-force ever survived by a human being (until in 2003, Kenny Bräck's crash violence recording system measured 214 g). Purley suffered multiple fractures to his legs, pelvis and ribs.

paragraph: Purley recovered to race again although he confined his activities to the minor Aurora AFX series of Formula One races in Britain.

paragraph: Following his decision to quit motorsport, Purley moved into competition aerobatics.

paragraph: Section::::Death.

paragraph: Purley died on 2 July 1985 when his Pitts Special aerobatic biplane crashed into the English Channel off Bognor Regis. He is buried in the churchyard of St. Nicholas Church, West Itchenor, near Chichester.

paragraph: Section::::Legacy.

paragraph: The remains of Purley's crashed LEC CRP1 and its replacement were displayed at the Donington Grand Prix Exhibition until 2011. They have since been restored and now compete in historic Formula One racing.

paragraph: Guy Mairesse

paragraph: Guy Mairesse (10 August 1910 – 24 April 1954) was a racing driver from France. He participated in 3 Formula One World Championship Grands Prix, debuting on 3 September 1950. He scored no championship points.

paragraph: Mairesse built up a haulage business between the wars and became interested in motor sport in 1946 through his friendship with Le Mans driver, Paul Vallée. He won the Lyon-Charbonnières Rally in 1947 and then purchased a Delahaye from Vallée for 1948, with which he was victorious at Chimay.

paragraph: In 1949 Mairesse joined Vallée's team, Ecurie France, to race the Lago-Talbot and took fourth place at Pau and fifth at Albi. In 1950 he finished second at Le Mans with Pierre Meyrat using a single seat Talbot. Towards the end of that season the Vallée team closed and Mairesse purchased the Le Mans car and a Lago-Talbot T26C which he used to enter the 1950 Italian Grand Prix from which he retired and the Swiss and French Grands Prix in 1951, finishing 11 laps down and "not classified" on each occasion. Thereafter business commitments curtailed his involvement in racing and he sold his cars in 1952 appearing infrequently in other owners' machinery.

paragraph: Mairesse was killed in practice for the Coupe de Paris at Montlhéry in 1954 when he swerved to avoid another car and crashed into a concrete wall.

paragraph: Taki Inoue

paragraph: Takachiho "Taki" Inoue (井上 隆智穂 "Inoue Takachiho", born 5 September 1963) is a Japanese racing driver.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.

paragraph: Inoue was born in Kobe. He competed in the British Formula Ford Championship in 1988, followed by a spell in All-Japan Formula Three from 1989 to 1993 and a season in the International Formula 3000 championship in 1994.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.:Formula One.

paragraph: He participated in 18 Formula One Grand Prix races, making his first appearance on 6 November 1994 at the Japanese Grand Prix for Simtek. He scored no championship points and was considered a pay driver.

paragraph: He is perhaps best remembered for two bizarre incidents while driving for Footwork in 1995. The first occurred after a practice session at Monaco, when his stalled car was being towed back to the pits when it was hit by a course car, driven by Jean Ragnotti, causing it to roll into the barriers, although Inoue was fit to race the next day. The second happened on Hungarian GP on live TV worldwide – attempting to assist the marshals in putting out the engine fire which had forced him out of the race, a safety car Tatra 623 driven to the scene by a marshal hit him, injuring his leg, although he recovered for the next race.

paragraph: For most of the season his team-mate was Gianni Morbidelli, but late in the season Max Papis replaced Morbidelli, and was sometimes outpaced by Inoue.

paragraph: Entering the season, Inoue lobbied Tyrrell for a drive, but the team chose Ukyo Katayama with his Mild Seven sponsorship money from Japan Tobacco. Instead, he was announced in January to drive for the Minardi team. However, one of his personal sponsors pulled out at the last minute and Inoue withdrew from F1. Minardi took on Giancarlo Fisichella instead. Fisichella, the team's test driver in 1995, had backing from Marlboro Italy.

paragraph: With his sponsorship reduced, Inoue was out of a drive in Formula One. After a brief switch to sportscars, he retired from racing at the end of 1999 and now manages drivers in his own country.

paragraph: After his retirement, Inoue has earned popularity for making jokes related to Formula One on his Twitter account, which has earned more than 65,000 followers as of May 2019. He is also known for his self-deprecating humor, as Inoue has publicly proclaimed himself as the "worst driver in Formula One", admits that he initially had no idea what a pit stop is, and in an interview with the Top Gear magazine in 2015, states that he was "not good enough to drive in F1".

paragraph: Oko Jumbo

paragraph: Oko Jumbo (died 1891) was an important chief in the Kingdom of Bonny, a state in the Niger Delta, now part of Rivers State, Nigeria. For many years in the 19th century he was the effective ruler of Bonny.

paragraph: Section::::Background.

paragraph: The Kingdom of Bonny, originally called Ubani, is a traditional state based on the town of Bonny in Rivers State, Nigeria.

paragraph: The kingdom was inhabited by the Ijoid and Igbo people.

paragraph: Bonny rose to power beginning in the 15th century with the coming of the Portuguese and the Atlantic slave trade, acting as a depot for slaves brought from the interior.

paragraph: In the 19th century, the kingdom was forced by the British to end the slave trade. Trade in palm oil replaced trade in slaves.

paragraph: Section::::Early career.

paragraph: Oko Jumbo was the son of a slave who became a lesser chief in Bonny, but managed to amass considerable wealth and thus power through astute trading.

paragraph: He became one of the leaders of a group of chiefs who dominated the ruling Manilla Pepple house. On the death of King Dapho of Bonny on 13 August 1855, the acting British Consul in the Bight of Biafra, J.W.B. Lynslager, signed a document on 11 September 1855 appointing the chiefs Anne Pepple, Ada Allison, Captain Hart and Manilla Pepple as a regency, required to consult with Bannego and Oko Jumbo, "two gentlemen of the river".

paragraph: The arrangement, which gave the Manilla Pepple house control of the regency, caused immediate disputes with the rival Anna (or Annie) Pepple house.

paragraph: When Lynslager's replacement arrived, he reported that "the four regents never lived in unity of unanimity ... consequently civil was ever ripe around and about them .. leading to immense loss of British property".

paragraph: When the official leader of the Manilla house died in 1863, Banego and Oko Jumbo could not agree who was to succeed, and so appointed a figurehead named Warribo while continuing to control the house.

paragraph: In an attempt to restore calm, the British restored William Dappa Pepple I (whom they had exiled in 1854) as king on 18 August 1861, and on his death on 30 September 1866 installed his son George Oruigbiji Pepple as king.

paragraph: However, Oko Jumbo remained a leading power in the kingdom.

paragraph: On 6 March 1866, Bishop Crowther described Oko Jumbo as the "most sensible and wealthy" man in Bonny, and noted that he had learned to read the first chapter of St. Matthew. The next year he had learned to write, and enrolled thirteen of his children in school. He gave his support to the Christian missionaries, and on Easter Day 1867 joined King George in declaring that the Iguana, the traditional deity of Bonny, was no longer "Bonny Juju".

paragraph: Section::::Civil war.

paragraph: Tension continued between the Manilla Pepple houses and the Annie Pepple house, which was led by a chief named Jubo Jubogha, known as Ja-Ja to the British.

paragraph: A truce was agreed in 1865, banning the use of firearms, but on 2 March 1867 a brawl between Manilla Pepple and Anna Pepple supporters engulfed the town, with all the men fighting on one side or other using "matchets and gin bottles, there being no stone in the town". The young King George intervened, armed with a pistol, and managed to calm things down.

paragraph: In 1869, after Jaja had decided to relocate outside the city, the dispute flared up into civil warfare, in which the Manilla Pepple's gained the advantage through acquisition of some old 32 lb carronades. Many of the Annie Pepple supporters were killed during and in the aftermath of the main battle, and the town was devastated.

paragraph: Jaja left Bonny and established a rival settlement at Opobo, which controlled the river that supplied three-quarters of the palm oil of the district. The British trading firm of Stuart & Douglas supported Jaja, as did others, who relocated to Opobo.

paragraph: Section::::Later years.

paragraph: A peace treaty was concluded between Bonny and Opobo in 1873, and Oko Jumbo visited Ja-Ja and assured him of his friendship.

paragraph: Oko Jumbo soured against Christianity when he realised that King George was using the influence of the missionaries to undermine the power of the chiefs and increase his own influence.

paragraph: He imposed various bans on the practice of the religion.

paragraph: In 1879 King George visited England, where he was well received, given great attention in the press and presented with a steam launch.

paragraph: These reports alarmed Oko Jumbo and Jaja, who became concerned that the British were planning to annexe both Bonny and Opobo, although on George's return the British consul managed to calm the situation down.

paragraph: However, on 14 December 1883 the chiefs deposed King George Pepple.

paragraph: The friendship between Jumbo and Jaja broke down, and both began arming. An 1883 book said that "Oko Jumbo has under his command some 7,000 or 8,000 men, all armed with breech-loading rifles and well supplied with ammunition; and Ja-Ja can put about the same number, similarly armed, into the field".

paragraph: In 1884, Oko Jumbo fell out with other chiefs in Bonny. There were rumours that he wanted to place one of his sons on the throne, although a planned coup attempt in January 1885 came to nothing. Another son, Herbert Jumbo, who had been educated in England, quarrelled with his father and placed himself under the protection of the British consul.

paragraph: Later in 1885, Oko Jumbo made a trip to England, arriving in Liverpool in May accompanied by two of his sons, Herbert and James. The Times described him as "King of Bonny" when reporting the visit.

paragraph: On his return trip, the ship was wrecked off the west coast of Africa but he managed to escape.

paragraph: In February 1886 a protectorate treaty was concluded between Bonny and Britain.

paragraph: A ruling council was established, and King George Pepple was reestablished on his throne.

paragraph: Oko Jumbo was publicly degraded, his bans on Christianity were repealed and afterwards he was a spent force in Bonny politics.

paragraph: In June 1886, refuting rumours that Oko Jumbo had drowned in the shipwreck, a reporter said he had retired 40 miles into the interior, leaving all his affairs in the hands of his son Herbert.

paragraph: In 1887 Ja-Ja was arrested and exiled to Tenerife, dying there in 1891, and Oko Jumbo died around the same time.

paragraph: Section::::Appearance.

paragraph: In John Whitford's book on the region published in 1877, Oko Jumbo was described as "about forty-five years of age, slightly above the middle stature, well built, inclined to portliness; and has bright sparkling eyes and an intelligent face." He was described as an elegant dresser, although preferring bare feet. He travelled in a long, fast canoe paddled by twenty four to thirty boys. He was hospitable, and often invited white men to share his excellent cookery.

paragraph: An account published after his fall in 1886 described him as "a grand old pagan of the bygone school, tall and strong, with a fine handsome face and powerful head, with very little attempt at European dress, or indeed dress of any sort". It noted that his two sons, who resided mostly in England, were civilised gentlemen.

paragraph: John Port (died 1557)

paragraph: Sir John Port (before 1510 – 6 June 1557) was an English Knight of the Order of the Bath and politician. He founded Repton School, an almshouse at Etwall and also has a secondary school named after him.

paragraph: Section::::Family.

paragraph: The family of Port was based in Chester.

paragraph: John Port was the only son of Sir John Port (d.1540) by Jane Fitzherbert (died c.1520), widow of John Pole of Radbourne, and daughter and heiress of John Fitzherbert (d.1502) of Etwall, King's Remembrancer of the Exchequer. His great-grandfather, Henry Port, was described as a merchant. A mercer, also named Henry Port (d.1512), was his grandfather; a monument to the latter in St Helen's Church, Etwall records that he died in 1512, having had seventeen children by his wife Elizabeth, the daughter of Banowayte of Flowresbrook.

paragraph: Port had three sisters: Ellen, who married firstly Sir Edmund Pierrepont of Holme, Nottinghamshire and secondly Sir John Babington; Barbara, who married Sir John Francys of Foremark; and Maria, who was the wife of Sir George Findern of Findern.

paragraph: Section::::Career.

paragraph: Port was the first lecturer or scholar at his father's foundation at Brasenose College. He was elected Knight of the Shire (MP) for Derbyshire in 1539. He was knighted at the coronation of Edward VI in 1547 and was a member of Queen Mary's first parliament, representing Derbyshire in 1553. He was High Sheriff of Derbyshire in 1554. In 1556 he was involved in the execution of Joan Waste, a 22-year-old blind Protestant.

paragraph: Section::::Bequests.

paragraph: Port had no surviving sons when he died on 6 June 1557. By his will he left bequests for the creation of an almshouse at Etwall, and a "Grammar School in Etwalle or Reptone", where the scholars every day were to pray for the souls of his parents and other relatives. The executors purchased land which had once been the grounds of the Augustinian Repton Priory. The priory had been dissolved in 1538, however the buildings remained standing until 1553 when then owner, Gilbert Thacker, fearing the priory would be recommissioned under Catholic Queen Mary I, had the church completely destroyed; a task that was almost entirely completed within a single day. Gilbert Thacker claimed "He would destroy the nest, for fear the birds should build therein again." Thus only a few fragments and foundations of the original priory church remain, though other buildings survived and are now part of Repton School. Port also confirmed and augmented his father's grants to Brasenose College, Oxford.

paragraph: Section::::Marriages and issue.

paragraph: Port married firstly Elizabeth Giffard, daughter of Sir Thomas Giffard of Chillington in Staffordshire by Dorothy, his wife, third daughter and co-heiress of Sir John Montgomery, which Elizabeth was heiress to her mother. By his first wife he had three daughters and two sons:

She has independently produced and released six studio albums on her record label, Rugged Road Records: "Anne Harris" (2001), "Open Your Doors" (2003), "Wine and Poetry" (2005), "Gravity and Faith" (2008), "Come Hither" (2015) and "Roots" (2019). A live album, "Live at the Acorn Theater", was released in 2008. Her music has been described by various writers as incorporating a variety of influences, including traditional Celtic music, American folk-rock, Afrobeat, soul, and chamber music. For lack of a specific genre label, her work has been dubbed "conscious music" which refers to music and lyrics that have some basis in a spiritual, humanist philosophy.

After college, Harris moved to Chicago and worked as an actor in theater and commercials for a few years before returning to music around 1997. She worked for a while with a number of local Chicago bands, notably Poi Dog Pondering, building a strong reputation for her instrumental talent. Over time she began writing and performing her own music.

paragraph: Along with her recorded work, Harris has performed at the North by Northeast music festival in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, has sung the U.S. National Anthem at a Chicago Cubs baseball game and was awarded "Album Artwork of the Year" honors at the 2006 DIY Music Festival in Los Angeles for her "Wine and Poetry" CD packaging.

paragraph: Harris continues to play violin with other notable national artists. From 2009 into 2018, she toured and recorded with trance-blues innovator and 2009 Blues Music Award winner, Otis Taylor. She also has appeared with Cathy Richardson in several formations - as a duo, in the Cathy Richardson Band, and in Jefferson Starship.

paragraph: Roefie Hueting

paragraph: Roelof (Roefie) Hueting (born December 16, 1929) is a Dutch economist, former Head of the Department for Environmental Statistics of Statistics Netherlands, pianist and leader of the Down Town Jazz Band, known for the developed of the concept of Sustainable National Income (SNI).

paragraph: Section::::Biography.

paragraph: Hueting was born in The Hague, son of Bernardus Hueting and Elisabeth Hueting-Steinvoorte. In 1949 he founded the Down Town Jazz Band, and earned his living as musician during his studies at the University of Amsterdam. Started in 1951, he received his MA in Economics in 1959. In 1974 he obtained his Ph.D. in economics (cum laude) at the University of Groningen with the thesis "New scarcity and economic growth: More welfare through less production?" under supervision of Jan Pen.

paragraph: In 1959 he started as assistant public accountant. From 1962 till 1969 he was labour market researcher at the Ministry of Social Affairs, and from 1965 till 1968 at the Ministry of Housing and Physical Planning. After joining the Statistics Netherlands in 1969 he founded its Department of Environmental Statistics. Until his retirement in 1994 he chaired the Department for Environmental Statistics.

paragraph: In 1991 he was decorated Officer of the Order of Orange-Nassau, and in 1994 awarded the United Nation Global 500 award.

paragraph: Section::::Work.

paragraph: Hueting developed the theoretical and practical framework of the Sustainable national income (SNI). Already in 1970 he published a collection of articles over the years 1967-1970 titled: “What is nature worth to us?”. He has analyzed the environment from the neoclassical point of view of scarcity and developed the concept of Sustainable National Income (SNI). The implication of the SNI is that the statistical measure of economic growth is revised.

paragraph: Section::::Work.:Economics and the environment.

paragraph: The concept of sustainability was presented for the first time at The World Conservation Strategy, IUCN, 1980: "This is the kind of development that provides real improvements in the quality of human life and at the same time conserves the vitality and diversity of the Earth. The goal is development that will be sustainable. Today it may seem visionary but it is attainable. To more and more people it also appears our only rational option". (UNEP, IUCN, WWF)

paragraph: There are various possible descriptions of this area of research but a good one is provided as follows:

paragraph: Examples of ecological suicide are given by Jared Diamond in his book "Collapse".

paragraph: Neoclassical economics finds opposition from ecological economics, while that opposition would be less needed due to Hueting's more neoclassical analysis of the environment. The neoclassical SNI has different results than e.g. Robert Costanza et al. (1997). This suggests that more discipline is required in this discipline.

paragraph: John C. Squires

paragraph: John C. Squires (May 19, 1925 – May 23, 1944) was a United States Army soldier and a recipient of the United States military's highest decoration—the Medal of Honor—for his actions in World War II.

paragraph: Squires joined the Army from his birth city of Louisville, Kentucky in July 1943, and by April 23, 1944 was serving as a private first class in Company A, 30th Infantry Regiment, 3rd Infantry Division. During a battle on that day, near Padiglione, Italy, he repeatedly braved enemy fire to carry messages, bring up reinforcements, and fight the Germans throughout the night and into the next morning. Squires was killed in action a month later, after having been promoted to Sergeant. He was posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor on October 2, 1944.

paragraph: Squires, aged 19 at his death, was buried in Zachary Taylor National Cemetery in his hometown of Louisville, Kentucky. In 2001, a memorial honoring Medal of Honor recipients from Kentucky was dedicated in Louisville. The memorial features a six-foot-tall bronze statue of Squires.

paragraph: Section::::Medal of Honor citation.

paragraph: Sergeant Squires' official Medal of Honor citation reads:

paragraph: For conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity at risk of life above and beyond the call of duty. At the start of his company's attack on strongly held enemy positions in and around Spaccasassi Creek, near Padiglione, Italy, on the night of 23-April 24, 1944, Pfc. Squires, platoon messenger, participating in his first offensive action, braved intense artillery, mortar, and antitank gun fire in order to investigate the effects of an antitank mine explosion on the leading platoon. Despite shells which burst close to him, Pfc. Squires made his way 50 yards forward to the advance element, noted the situation, reconnoitered a new route of advance and informed his platoon leader of the casualties sustained and the alternate route. Acting without orders, he rounded up stragglers, organized a group of lost men into a squad and led them forward. When the platoon reached Spaccasassi Creek and established an outpost, Pfc. Squires, knowing that almost all of the noncommissioned officers were casualties, placed 8 men in position of his own volition, disregarding enemy machinegun, machine-pistol, and grenade fire which covered the creek draw. When his platoon had been reduced to 14 men, he brought up reinforcements twice. On each trip he went through barbed wire and across an enemy minefield, under intense artillery and mortar fire. Three times in the early morning the outpost was counterattacked. Each time Pfc. Squires ignored withering enemy automatic fire and grenades which struck all around him, and fired hundreds of rounds of rifle, Browning automatic rifle, and captured German Spandau machinegun ammunition at the enemy, inflicting numerous casualties and materially aiding in repulsing the attacks. Following these fights, he moved 50 yards to the south end of the outpost and engaged 21 German soldiers in individual machinegun duels at point-blank range, forcing all 21 enemy to surrender and capturing 13 more Spandau guns. Learning the function of this weapon by questioning a German officer prisoner, he placed the captured guns in position and instructed other members of his platoon in their operation. The next night when the Germans attacked the outpost again he killed 3 and wounded more Germans with captured potato-masher grenades and fire from his Spandau gun. Pfc. Squires was killed in a subsequent action.
