paragraph: Casimir I, Duke of Cieszyn

paragraph: Casimir I of Cieszyn (, , ; 1280/90 – ), was Duke of Cieszyn from 1315, Duke of Siewierz from 1337 and Duke of Bytom from 1357.

paragraph: He was the second son of Mieszko I, Duke of Cieszyn by his wife, probably called Grzymisława.

paragraph: Section::::Life.

paragraph: After death of his father in 1315, Casimir I gained the southwestern part of the duchy, centered around the town of Cieszyn. His marriage to Euphemia of Czersk founded a tradition of relationships of Cieszyn Piasts with Masovian Piasts.

paragraph: Casimir I initially had good relations with Władysław I the Elbow-high, who became the King of Poland in 1320. But when during 1321–1324 Lithuanian forces supporting Elbow-high plundered Cieszyn, Casimir I broke with the Polish King. He then became a closer ally of John of Luxembourg, King of Bohemia and swore homage to him on 8 February 1327 in Opava; in exchange for his submission, Casimir I received the promise of inheritance of Oświęcim. Fifteen days later, on 23 February, he received Cieszyn as a hereditary possession, maintaining a large internal sovereignty.

paragraph: Casimir I wanted to maintain the territorial unity of his Duchy, so he chose only one of his sons to be his successor — firstly the eldest, Władysław, and after his early death in 1355 the third, but the only one who remained outside the Church, Przemysław Noszak — and the others were destined for a Church career. In 1337 he acquired the districts of Siewierz and Czeladź from the Dukes of Bytom by 720 fines; also, he (temporarily) took the town of Namysłów from the Dukes of Brzeg, as a part of the dowry of his daughter Anna.

paragraph: When Duke Leszek of Racibórz died in 1336, Casimir I tried unsuccessfully to obtain his lands. King John of Bohemia granted this land to Duke Nicholas II of Opava.

paragraph: In 1355, after the death of Bolesław, Duke of Koźle-Bytom without male issue, Casimir I entered a conflict over his inheritance with Konrad I of Oleśnica. The dispute was only resolved in 1357 (the decision was made as early as 1355, but Bytom remained until that time under the rule of Margareta of Sternberg —Bolesław's widow— as her dower): the Duke of Cieszyn took possession of half of Bytom and Gliwice, Toszek and Pyskowice.

paragraph: In the internal politics, Casimir I supported the economic development of his Duchy, mostly towns. He also surrounded Cieszyn with walls and by 1320 granted the town of Bielsko with German laws.

paragraph: Casimir I died in 1358 (although there are some indications that he lived until 1360, but this is refuted by the majority of historians) and was buried in the Dominican church of Cieszyn.

paragraph: Section::::Marriage and issue.

paragraph: By 1321, Casimir I married Euphemia (b. 1310 – d. aft. 11 January 1374), daughter of Duke Trojden I of Czersk-Warsaw. They had nine children:

paragraph: BULLET::::1. Anna (b. 1325 – d. 1367), married in 1338 to Duke Wenceslaus I of Legnica.

paragraph: BULLET::::2. Władysław (b. 1325/31 – d. May 1355).

paragraph: Yashima Gakutei

paragraph: Yashima Gakutei (; 1868) was a Japanese artist and poet who was a pupil of both Totoya Hokkei and Hokusai. Gakutei is best known for his kyōka poetry and surimono works.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.

paragraph: Gakutei was born in Osaka around 1786, though his exact year of birth is somewhat unclear. He was the illegitimate son of the samurai known as Hirata who served under the Tokugawa shogunate. Gakutei's mother later married into the Yashima clan, explaining the artist's name. For some time, he worked in Osaka, focusing chiefly on woodblock prints called surimono in addition to book illustrations. Most of what is known about Gakutei has been surmised from the subjects and context of his work.

paragraph: Section::::Works.

paragraph: Gakutei is noted for the quality in his wood printing works and for his general contributions to the body of ukiyo-e artwork. Specifically, critics have noted his technical prowess and precision, his skill in embossing, and that his specialization in surimono exceeded that of his teacher, Hokkei. Some of his work included a set of five woodblock prints featuring young women performing gagaku, a traditional kind of court music from the Heian period. Each woman plays an instrument: a reed called a shō, a woodwind called a ryūteki, a koto, a stringed instrument called a biwa, and a drum called a tsuri-daiko. Gakutei also illustrated an entire book called the related to the translated Chinese novel "Suikoden". Gakutei also created landscapes and seascapes for books, which are rare pieces amongst Hokusai's pupils.

paragraph: Gakutei is also known for his prolific writing; he wrote many humorous poems called "kyōka" and used them in his artwork and prints. Additionally, he was responsible for a Japanese translation of "Journey to the West", for which he also completed illustrations.

paragraph: Yvonne Pagniez

paragraph: Yvonne Pagniez (10 August 1896 – 18 April 1981) was a French journalist and award-winning author, and a member of the French Resistance during the Second World War.

paragraph: Pagniez was born at Cauroir, near Cambrai, the daughter of Lucien Pagniez, a sugar manufacturer, and his wife, the former Marguerite Risbourg. Yvonne Pagniez studied Philosophy before becoming a nurse during the First World War.

paragraph: Section::::First World War.

paragraph: Pagniez, her mother and her sisters fled from the Cambrai region when it was occupied in 1914. Her brother, Maurice, was wounded, then interned and finally reunited with his family in Switzerland. Her father, arrested as a spy in 1915, escaped from prison at Le Quesnoy and also made his way to Switzerland. After working with refugees in Savoie, Yvonne Pagniez was trained as an intelligence agent prior to the Armistice of 1918 which ended the war. She then worked with the Red Cross to repatriate refugees before returning to Paris to complete her degree.

paragraph: Section::::Early career.

paragraph: In 1925, she married an older relative, Philippe Pagniez, who was a doctor. The following year, she gave birth to a son, named Yves. During this period, she joined the Union Féminine Civique et Sociale. She began visiting Trez-Hir, the home of a relative, at Plougonvelin in Brittany, where she was inspired by her surroundings to begin writing.

paragraph: Her first book, the novel "Ouessant", was published in 1935 and won the Prix Montyon. Her second, "Pêcheur de goémon", was awarded the Prix Marcelin Guérin in 1940.

paragraph: Section::::Second World War.

paragraph: In 1940, at the outbreak of war, Pagniez declined to be evacuated from Paris, choosing to remain with her husband. She joined the Organisation civile et militaire, a movement of the Resistance. On 4 June 1944, she was arrested by the Gestapo; on 15 August, she was deported to Ravensbrück concentration camp. From there she was temporarily sent to Torgau, and escaped from her transport on the way back to Ravensbrück. Sheltered in Berlin by German and French underground agents, she succeeded in crossing the border into Switzerland.

paragraph: Section::::Post-war.

paragraph: Pagniez's literary career continued successfully after the Second World War, but her husband died in 1947. She won another award from the Academie, the Prix Durchon-Louvet, in 1947 for "Scènes de la vie de bagne". She won the Grand prix du roman de l'Académie française in 1949 for her novel "Évasion 44".

paragraph: Her work as a war correspondent in Vietnam and Algeria resulted in further publications. After the defeat at the Battle of Dien Bien Phu in 1954, there was no longer a place for the French in the region, and Pagniez returned to France, retiring to the isle of Ushant (Ouessant) in Brittany.

paragraph: Faramurz

paragraph: Abu Mansur Faramurz (Persian: ابو منصور فرامرز), mostly known as Faramurz, was the Kakuyid Emir of Isfahan. He was the eldest son of Muhammad ibn Rustam Dushmanziyar. He was defeated by Tughril in 1051 and became his vassal. Faramurz later died after 1063, probably in the 1070s.

paragraph: Section::::Reign.

paragraph: Section::::Reign.:Independent rule.

paragraph: In 1037, Muhammad ibn Rustam strengthened the defenses of Isfahan to protect it from the plundering Turkmen nomads from Khorasan. In 1041, after the defeat of the Ghaznavids by the Seljuqs at the battle of Dandanaqan, the Seljuqs became neighbors with the Kakuyids. After defeating the Ghaznavids, their leader, Tughril, made Ray the capital of his kingdom.

paragraph: Four years later, Faramurz succeeded his father, Muhammad, in Isfahan, while Muhammad's younger son Garshasp I took power in Hamadan as a vassal king of his brother. The third son of Muhammad, Abu Harb, however, rebelled against his older brother and called upon help from the Buyids of Fars. The rebel brother was, however, defeated by Faramurz.

paragraph: Relations with Faramurz and Tughril had high importance. It seems that Faramurz was present with the Seljuqs at the battle of Dandanaqan against the Ghaznavids. When Faramurz ascended to the Kakuyid throne, Tughril secured his allegiance by sending a tribute of payment to Faramurz. However, neither Faramurz nor his brother Garshasp I were willing to turn to the side of Seljuqs.

paragraph: In 1044, Faramurz conquered a few cities in Kirman from the Buyid Abu Kalijar, but he shortly made a counter-attack against him, reconquering parts of Kirman and capturing Abarquh. The next year, the Dailamites and Kurds of Jibal made a stand together to resist the advance of the Turkmens from Khorasan. The following year Tughril arrived to Isfahan. Faramurz then submitted himself to the Seljuqs. Around 1045–46, after Tughril's return to Khorasan, Faramurz declared himself independent of Seljuq rule, and submitted to the Buyids, forcing Tughril to return to Isfahan, where he defeated the Kakuyids, and made Faramurz his vassal once again.

paragraph: In 1050, Tughril laid siege to Isfahan. The people of Isfahan defended the city bravely against the Seljuqs but after a year they finally surrendered. The walls of Isfahan were razed, and Tughril then made the city his capital.

paragraph: Section::::Reign.:Seljuq suzerainty.

paragraph: Faramurz was then appointed as the ruler Yazd and Abarkuh in compensation for the loss of Isfahan. Both of these towns which he controlled, had already been under Kakuyid control. Although he lost almost all power, Faramurz was highly respected at the Seljuq court, where he was awarded with the title of "Shams al-Mulk" (Sun of royalty) twice in 1061 and 1063. During this period, he was part of the Seljuq delegation to Baghdad, where he went with the Seljuq vizier Al-Kunduri and Tughril himself to organize the wedding of the Seljuq king with the daughter of Abbasid Caliph Al-Qa'im. After that, nothing more is known about Faramurz, and he probably died soon after. He was succeeded by his son Ali ibn Faramurz, who later married one of Chaghri Beg's daughters.

paragraph: Richard Walker (angler)

paragraph: Richard Stuart Walker (29 May 1918 – 2 August 1985) was an English angler.

paragraph: Walker was one of the first anglers to apply scientific thought to angling and wrote many books on the sport. He also wrote for the angling press, most notably for the "Angling Times", "Trout & Salmon" and "Fly Dressers' Guild Newsletter". He held the record for a carp in the UK for 28 years with a fish of caught at Redmire pool in Herefordshire.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.

paragraph: Walker was born at 32 Fishponds Road in Hitchin, Hertfordshire in 1918; he lived there until 1928. His father was a professional soldier and his mother an employee of the Post Office. He started fishing at an early age, being taught by his grandfather in Hertford. He was educated at the Friends' School in Saffron Walden and St Christopher School in Letchworth. He went to Gonville and Caius College, Cambridge, but his studies were interrupted by the Second World War, during which he worked for the Royal Aircraft Establishment at Farnborough.

paragraph: After the war he joined Lloyds and Co, manufacturers of high quality grass cutting machinery as technical director.

paragraph: His inventions included the electronic bite alarm and the arlesey bomb weight, and he was instrumental in the development of the carbon-fibre fishing rod. Considered by many to be one of the best fishermen of the twentieth century, his books are now collector's items. One of his personally handmade Mark IV carp split cane rods is worth some thousands of pounds.

paragraph: He lived by the River Ivel in Biggleswade from 1978 until his death in 1985 after a long battle with cancer. A biography by Professor Barrie Rickards was published in 2007.

paragraph: A blue plaque was unveiled on his birthplace in June 2011.

paragraph: Section::::Walker's record carp.

paragraph: On 13 September 1952, Walker landed the then record carp at Redmire Pool which weighed 44 lbs. After the fish's capture he decided to contact London Zoo to verify its weight. After collection the fish was transported to the zoo's aquarium and put on public display. Walker had named the carp "Ravioli" but the fish was renamed "Clarissa". Walker's record held to 1980 when it was beaten by Chris Yates' 51 lb 8 oz fish

paragraph: The current BRFC recognized record currently stands at 68 lb 1 oz held by Dean Fletcher caught in 2016

paragraph: Section::::Fly fishing.

paragraph: Walker was also an innovative fly angler fishing chalk streams, small stillwaters and reservoirs. With the opening of Grafham Water in 1966 Walker concentrated his efforts in addressing the new problems faced at what was at that time the largest man-made stillwater in England. As a result he was instrumental in the design of many reservoir fly patterns including "Walker's Midge Pupa", the "Chomper", "Longhorns", "Mayfly Nymph", "Red Sedge", "Dambuster", "Polystickle", "Mrs Palmer", and "Sweeney Todd". In August 1969 he began a series of regular monthly articles in "Trout & Salmon" on new fly patterns entitled Modern Fly Dressings which were subsequently collated into "Fly Dressing Innovations" and "Dick Walker's Modern Fly Dressings". His later years, which were marred by ill health, were spent fishing smaller stillwaters.

paragraph: Yigal Mossinson

paragraph: Yigal Mossinson (alternate spellings include Igal Mossinsohn and Yigal Mosenzon) (25 December 1917 – 1 May 1994) was an Israeli novelist, playwright, and inventor. He was the author of the Hasamba children's book series.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.

paragraph: Mossinson was born in 1917 in the moshav Ein Ganim, Ottoman Palestine located near Petah Tikva and grew up in Tel Aviv. Later on Mossinson studied in Beit Alfa and in the youth village of Ben Shemen. Afterward he moved to the Kibbutz Na'an, where he lived from 1938 to 1950. In 1943 Mossinson joined the Palmach. During that period Mossinson was arrested by the British and imprisoned in Latrun. In 1944 Mossinson published his first story in the newspaper "Al HaMishmar". During the 1948 Arab–Israeli War Mossinson served as a cultural officer in the Givati unit.

paragraph: In 1953, following the publication of the novel "A Man's Way" () Mossinson had to leave the kibbutz; he moved to Moshav Beit Shearim. From 1952 Mossinson served for a year and a half as a press spokesman for the Israeli police and afterward as the spokesman of the Habima Theatre.

paragraph: In 1957 Mossinson founded the "Sadan" theatre in the Mughrabi Hall. The theater went bankrupt eventually and closed. In 1959 Mossinson moved to the United States where he pursued various businesses for a living. During this period he helped adapt the play "Casablan" for the screen, with a film version (filmed in Greece) released in 1964.

paragraph: Antoine-Félix Bouré

paragraph: Antoine-Félix Bouré (8 July 1831 – 8 April 1883), known in his own time as Félix Bouré but sometimes found in modern scholarship as Antoine Bouré, was a Belgian sculptor, best known for his monumental lions.

paragraph: Section::::Life and career.

paragraph: Bouré was born in Brussels as the Belgian war of independence was drawing to a close. He studied locally first under Guillaume Geefs and then from 1846 to 1852 under Eugène Simonis at the Royal Academy for Fine Art, going abroad to complete his training at the Academy of Fine Arts at Florence. In his studies, he followed the same course as his older brother, Paul Bouré. Paul died in his mid-twenties when Antoine-Félix was only 17.

paragraph: Bouré was among the artists whose work was exhibited at the Musée Bovie, a "grand maison" built by the painter Virginie Bovie on the Rue de Trône, Brussels. In 1868, he was one of sixteen co-founders of the Société Libre des Beaux-Arts, an avant-garde society that provided exhibition space alternative to that of the official Salon in Belgium. The manifesto of the society espoused the Realist principle of "free and individual interpretation of nature" along with avant-gardist ideals of "struggle, change, freedom, progress, originality and tolerance" that were inspired by Courbet and Baudelaire. "Modernity" and "sincerity" were keywords. By 1875 the Salon had come to accept and then coopt the Realist program, at which time the society disbanded.

paragraph: Bouré was a friend of Auguste Rodin, who worked on a number of projects in Brussels throughout the 1870s. In 1877, Bouré was one of two Belgian sculptors who offered testimony on behalf of the 36-year-old Rodin during a controversy over "The Vanquished", a life-sized male nude modeled after a Belgian soldier that was later retitled "The Age of Bronze". Rodin had been accused of assembling the work from plaster casts rather than modeling it from life; Bouré confirmed Rodin's work methods from his own observations in the studio.

paragraph: Bouré's sculptures were considered remarkable for their combination of grace and power. The critic Camille Lemonnier, a fellow member of the Sociéte Libre, praised him for "sincerity", one of the ideals prized by their group. Bouré showed work at the Exposition Universelle de Paris in the years 1867 and 1878, and at numerous salons in Belgium and abroad. He earned medals at exhibitions in Brussels, Paris, and Philadelphia.

paragraph: Bouré was awarded the Order of Leopold, either as a "chevalier" (knight) or "officier". He died at Ixelles in 1883 in what was marked as the prime of his life, and was buried next to his brother. In "L'Art moderne", he was eulogized jointly with the octogenarian Geefs to the detriment of his former teacher, whom the anonymous writer accused of "inundating the country with pathetic vulgarities": Bouré, the writer said, "produced little, but all of it fine." "La rue Félix Bouré" (or just "la rue Bouré") in Ixelles is named for him.

paragraph: Section::::Animalier.

paragraph: Bouré's reputation rests primarily on his large sculptural lions, characterized by their athletic musculature and majestic air. The most famous of these is the colossal lion that sits atop the Gileppe Dam "like a cat on a garden wall." The Gileppe lion stands 13.5 meters tall (around 44 feet). Weighing 130 tonnes, it was constructed from 183 blocks of sandstone brought to the site by horse-drawn carts.

paragraph: Bouré also sculpted the colossal lion in bronzed zinc at the Leopold Gate in Brussels; the pair at the entrance to the "Palais de Justice" in Charleroi, known as "Totor et Tutur"; and other lions throughout Brussels, including those in the garden of the Palais des Académies and four along the Rue Royale. Some of his lions were produced in tabletop versions.

paragraph: Bouré's interest in leonine subject matter places him in company with "les animaliers", the 19th-century French sculptors led by Antoine-Louis Barye who made animals the focus of their work rather than relegating them to the background. Along with the sculptor Léon Mignon (1847–1898) and Jacques de Lalaing (1858–1917), Bouré helped establish a distinctively Belgian tradition of animal art, to which the flourishing Antwerp Zoo contributed inspiration.

paragraph: Section::::"The Lizard".

paragraph: The other work for which Bouré is most noted shows a strikingly different side of the artist. The white marble "Le lézard" or "L'enfant au lezard", not quite 4 feet long and about 2 feet high (overall 61.5 by 118.5 by 39 cm), depicts a nude boy lying on his stomach, ankles crossed, resting on his left elbow with his right hand cocked inquisitively as he directs his absorbed gaze down at a small lizard. Bouré created this "délicieux morceau" during the period 1872–1874. It was praised for its fine modeling and lifelike expression, its charm and grace of attitude, and the "rare suppleness of its lines." "Le lézard" was not uniformly admired. One critic noted its "poverty of imagination" and thinness of execution, while admitting other qualities.

paragraph: Bouré's child recalls in some aspects the Apollo Sauroctonos ("Apollo the Lizard-Slayer"), an often-reproduced figure in classical antiquity of the pubescent god observing a lizard as it climbs up a tree. The original bronze was attributed to the Athenian sculptor Praxiteles. The Louvre acquired a white marble version in 1807. The sculpture received attention in French-language books on art published while Bouré was active, including Émile Gebhart's "Praxitèle" (1864) and Wilhelm Fröhner's "Notice de la sculpture antique du Musée Impérial du Louvre" (1878). If an image of the "Sauroctonos" is rotated and flipped horizontally, the compositional resemblances with Bouré's "L'enfant au lézard" become more evident. The Apollo's overall height of nearly 5 feet, which includes the tree trunk extending past the body, gives the figure a vertical proportion comparable to that of Bouré's 4-foot horizontal boy.

paragraph: The Louvre acquired its Apollo Sauroctonos as part of the Borghese Collection, which included other pieces that may have influenced Bouré such as a boyish standing Eros, the so-called ephebe Narcissus, and a sleeping Hermaphroditus.

paragraph: Related marbles from the Borghese Collection

paragraph: In classical iconography, a lizard may also appear with Eros, and the Louvre Eros is thought to have originally held a small creature in its hand. Lemonnier pointed to classical qualities in Bouré's work, particularly in relation to ancient Roman sculpture.

paragraph: Although the subject matter seems out of keeping with Bouré's monumental and public works, his friend Rodin was also sculpting children during his time in Belgium in the 1870s, when Bouré was a visitor to his studio. Several years later, Rodin produced the bronze "Les enfants au lézard" ("Children with a Lizard"), depicting a little girl who retreats to her older sister's arms in fear of the small lizard below. Despite a similarity of subject matter, the work bears little resemblance to Bouré's sinuous reclining figure. Rodin's approach to representing children as "well-fed babies" has been related to his practice in drawing cupids (erotes) for various two-dimensional media.

paragraph: Section::::Historical figures.

paragraph: On the monumental gate of Berchem in Antwerp, Bouré's statue of the Belgo-gallic leader Ambiorix was paired with that of the Nervian general Boduognatus by Pierre Armand Cattier. Their works were brought together again at the Palais de Justice in Brussels, where a pair of Bouré's griffins also preside over the portal. For the interior of the Palais, each artist provided a pair of larger-than-life figures, Cattier the Greek orators Demosthenes and Lycurgus, and Bouré the Roman jurists Cicero and Ulpian. These were among Bouré's last completed works.

paragraph: Section::::Other works.

paragraph: Bouré created one of five sculpted pediments for the Royal Conservatory of Brussels. The "Génie des Arts" ("Genius of the Arts") appears in the center of the five-figure group, with Drama depicted as male to his left and a female Comedy to his right. These are flanked by Dance and Music, or the Muses Terpsichore and Euterpe. Bouré's "Freedom of Association" (1864) was created for the Chambre des Représentants.

paragraph: Bouré's portrait busts of notable Belgians include Joseph Poelaert, the architect of the Palais de Justice; the surgeon and iodotherapist Limange; and Jean van Ruysbroeck, the architect of the Hôtel de ville de Bruxelles. Bouré created a self-portrait for his own tomb, and at the time of his death was working on a bronze bust of the 16th-century architect Cornelis Floris de Vriendt which was completed by Joseph van Rasbourgh. Lemonnier compared the bust of Limange, with a face "seamed by wrinkles and worked with Socratic embossing," to the portraiture of antiquity.

paragraph: Maxx Williams

paragraph: Maxx Williams (born April 12, 1994) is an American football tight end for the Arizona Cardinals of the National Football League (NFL). He played college football at Minnesota and was drafted by the Baltimore Ravens in the second round of the 2015 NFL Draft.

paragraph: Section::::College career.

paragraph: Williams was redshirted in his first year at the University of Minnesota in 2012. As a redshirt freshman in 2013, he started seven of 13 games, recording 25 receptions for 417 yards and five touchdowns. As a sophomore in 2014, he finished the year with 36 receptions for 569 yards and eight touchdowns. Williams was a finalist for the John Mackey Award.

paragraph: Williams entered the 2015 NFL Draft after his redshirt sophomore season, foregoing his junior and senior seasons.

paragraph: Section::::Professional career.

paragraph: The NFL advisory board recommended Williams return to school, but he chose to forgo his junior and senior season and enter the draft. The upcoming draft class lacked depth at the tight end position with Williams as the only tight end projected to go in the first two rounds. During the lead up to the draft, Williams worked out with Minnesota Vikings' tight end Kyle Rudolph. Williams received an invitation to the NFL combine and completed all of the required combine and positional drills. Williams finished third among tight ends in the 40-yard dash. He had an impressive performance and was able to distinguish himself as the top tight end over Miami's Clive Walford. On March 2, 2015, he opted to participate at Minnesota's pro day, along with David Cobb, Cedric Thompson, and 11 other teammates. He stood on his combine results and chose to only perform positional drills for team representatives and scouts from 20 NFL teams. His pro day performance was described as impressive by multiple scouts and representatives. At the conclusion of the pre-draft process, Williams was projected to be a second or third round pick by the majority of NFL draft experts and scouts. He was ranked the top tight end in the draft by NFL analysts Charles Davis, Mike Mayock, Lance Zierlein, NFLDraftScout.com, and "Sports Illustrated".

paragraph: The Baltimore Ravens selected Williams in the second round (55th overall) of the 2015 NFL Draft. The Baltimore Ravens traded their second round pick (58th overall) and fifth round pick (158th overall) to the Arizona Cardinals in order to move up three spots to select Williams. They initialized the trade after multiple reports suggested that the Pittsburgh Steelers were going to select Williams with their second round pick (56th overall). Afterwards, Pittsburgh Steelers' General Manager Kevin Colbert denied the claim, stating they were planning to select Senquez Golson either way. The Ravens also chose Delaware tight end Nick Boyle in the fifth round (171st overall).

paragraph: Section::::Professional career.:Baltimore Ravens.:2015.

paragraph: On May 7, 2015, the Baltimore Ravens signed Williams to a four-year, $4.05 million contract that includes $1.82 million guaranteed and a signing bonus of $1.20 million.

paragraph: Throughout his first training camp with the Ravens, he competed against Crockett Gilmore, Nick Boyle, Dennis Pitta, and Konrad Reuland for the vacant job as the starting tight end after Owen Daniels departed in free agency. He was named the Ravens' second tight end behind Crockett Gilmore to begin the regular season.

paragraph: He made his professional regular season debut in the Baltimore Ravens' season-opener at the Denver Broncos and made his first career reception on an 11-yard pass by Joe Flacco during their 19–13 loss. The following week, Williams made his first career start and caught one pass for eight-yards in a 37–33 loss at the Oakland Raiders. On November 15, 2015, Williams made four receptions for 40 receiving yards and caught his first career touchdown during a 22–20 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars. His first career touchdown reception came in the second quarter on a 21-yard pass by Joe Flacco. Williams was inactive in Week 7 and limited in Week 8 after suffering a knee and ankle injury.

paragraph: On November 30, 2015, Williams suffered a concussion in the fourth quarter of a 33–27 victory at the Cleveland Browns. He was unable to play the following week at the Miami Dolphins (Week 13). On January 3, 2016, he caught a season-high six passes for 53-yards in a 24–16 loss at the Cincinnati Bengals. During the game, Bengals' linebacker Vontaze Burfict blindsided Williams while he was running a route in the end zone on the opposite side of where the actual play was happening. Burfict was fined $50,000 and was heavily scrutinized for leading with the crown of his helmet to Williams' chin and neck. He finished the season with 32 receptions 268 receiving yards and a touchdown in seven starts and 14 games.

paragraph: Section::::Professional career.:Baltimore Ravens.:2016.

paragraph: He competed with Crockett Gilmore, Dennis Pitta, and Nick Boyle throughout training camp for the job as the second tight end. The Ravens had signed Benjamin Watson during free agency to assume the job as the starting tight end. During the Ravens' third preseason game, Watson suffered a torn achilles tendon. Head coach John Harbaugh named Williams the third tight end to begin the regular season, behind Dennis Pitta and Crockett Gilmore.

paragraph: On October 7, 2016, Williams was placed on injured reserve with a knee injury. The knee injury required surgery to remove cartilage and he was estimated to miss a minimum of eight weeks or possibly the remainder of the season. He finished the season without any catches and appeared in only four games.

paragraph: Section::::Professional career.:Baltimore Ravens.:2017.

paragraph: He competed with Benjamin Watson, Dennis Pitta, Crockett Gilmore, Nick Boyle, Ryan Malleck, and Larry Donnell for the role as the starting tight end. He was named the third tight end behind Boyle and Watson to start the season after Dennis Pitta retired due to another hip injury and Crockett Gilmore was placed on injured/reserve with a torn MCL.

paragraph: He started the Baltimore Ravens' season-opener at the Cincinnati Bengals and made one reception for five-yards during their 20-0 victory. The following week, he caught a season-high four passes for 21-yards as the Ravens defeated the Cleveland Browns 24–10. Williams also had his first career rushing attempt for a two-yard gain during the victory. Unfortunately, Williams also suffered an injury to his left ankle during the course of the game and was unable to play in the next three games (Weeks 3-5). On October 15, 2017, Williams returned from injury and caught a six-yard pass during the Ravens' 27–24 loss to the Chicago Bears. After catching the pass from Joe Flacco, Williams attempting to fight for extra yardage and fumbled the ball. He also aggravated his ankle injury during the play and missed the next two games (Weeks 7-8).

paragraph: Sarvajna

paragraph: Sarvajña (Kannada: ) was a Kannada poet, pragmatist and philosopher of the 16th century. The word "Sarvajna" in Sanskrit literally means "the all knowing". He is famous for his pithy three-lined poems called "tripadi" (written in the native three-line verse metre, "with three padas, a form of "Vachana"). He is also referred as Sarvagna in modern translation.

paragraph: Section::::Early life.

paragraph: The period of Sarvajña's life has not been determined accurately, and very little is known about his personal life. Based on studies of his literary style and the references by later writers, historians estimate that he may have lived during the first half of the 16th century. Some references in his works indicate that his real name was Pushpadatta - Sarvajña appears to have been his pseudonym.

paragraph: From information gleaned from his poems, historians believe that his father, a Shaivaite Brahmin, met his mother, a Kumbara woman named Mali in present-day Haveri district (formerly part of Dharwad district) of Karnataka state on his way to Benares while on a pilgrimage. Sarvajna upheld the wisdom of pastoral life in rural areas in his poems and tried to persuade villagers to give up superstition, meaningless customs and traditions.

paragraph: Section::::Tripadis.

paragraph: Sarvagna grew up as a wandering monk creating "Tripadis", the famous three liners. In all, about 2000 three-liners are attributed to him. Popular because of their alliterative structure and simplicity, they deal mainly with social, ethical and religious issues. A number of riddles are also attributed to Sarvajna. All his Tripadis mostly rhyme at second letter of every line.
