paragraph: Bishan Singh

paragraph: Raja Bishan Singh was the grandson of Raja Ram Singh I and was ruler of Amer, and head of the Kachwaha clan, from 1688 to 1699.

paragraph: He was the subehdar of Assam from 1687-1695.

paragraph: Section::::Accession.

paragraph: On the death of his grandfather Ramsingh I, the 16-year-old Bishan Singh returned to Amer with his Kachwaha clansmen. He had been serving with Ram Singh in Afghanistan, even though the Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb had demanded that he be sent to serve in the Deccan Wars. But remembering the fate of other Hindu princes when serving in the Mughal armies on distant campaigns, Ram Singh had evaded that order. For this he had been demoted in rank and reduced in the possession of some estates. Bishan, on the other hand, was entirely deprived of his rank and lands.

paragraph: Raja Bishan Singh was thus the first ruler of Amer (since the days of the great Man Singh) to sit on the throne without any rank or status in the Mughal nobility. When Aurangzeb recognized Bishan Singh as Raja (30 April 1688), made him commander of 2500 cavalry, and gave him a cash advance for their maintenance, it seemed that the Amer royal family had come out of its dark days. The restoration came with a harsh condition: Bishan Singh was commanded to uproot the Jat rebels in the Agra province or these grants would be revoked.

paragraph: Section::::Rajput rebellions.

paragraph: At this stage, while Aurangzeb was fighting in the Deccan Wars, North India was also covered by strife. The main rebellions were of the Rajputs in Rajasthan, Malwa, Gujarat, Bundelkhand. Only the three weak states of Amer, Bundi, and Datia were in Mughal service, and were being used mostly against their own brethren by Aurangzeb. The other major rebellions were of the Sikhs in Punjab and the Jats in Agra.

paragraph: The campaign against the Jats was led by Aurangzeb's grandson Bidar Bakht, with Bishan Singh as one of his subordinates. By that time the Jat leader Raja Ram Singh Sinsinwar had died but even so their resistance was ferocious. Sansani fort was taken at the cost of 200 Mughals and 700 Rajputs while the Jats gave up 1,500 of their men. The rest of the garrison was slaughtered by Bidar Bakht. Bishan Singh had been sent to take the lesser fort of Soghar—after conquering the fort the Rajput chief took 500 Jats as prisoners but did not slaughter any of them.

paragraph: Raja Bishan Singh carried out a military jurisdiction of the Mathura region in Agra from 1690–96 but was afterwards dismissed. Aurangzeb was angry because the Jats were not crushed, firstly because Bishan on his own did not have the resources to control the entire region, and secondly he would not engage in a slaughter of civilians. He was replaced by a Mughal officer named Itiqad Khan.

paragraph: Section::::Aurangzeb's continued hostility.

paragraph: In 1696 Aurangzeb now commanded Bishan Singh, despite his previous dismissal, to serve in his ruinous Deccan Wars. The Raja pleaded with and bribed Mughal officials, Aurangzeb's sons, and the emperor's favorite daughter Zinat-un-nissa, until the order was changed to a summons for his 7-year-old son Jai Singh II.

paragraph: Fearing the same fate as his father Kishan Singh, and other Rajput princes, Raja Bishan Singh evaded the order to go to the Deccan for almost two years. Displeased, Aurangzeb transferred Bishan Singh to Afghanistan with half the Kachwaha clan, while the rest were placed under Jai Singh II. The emperor then sent his men to force the child to fight in his wars.

paragraph: In Afghanistan, Bishan Singh served under Shah Alam who spent every winter in Peshawar and moved to Kabul for the summer. Like his grandfather, Bishan Singh died in this bitterly cold region (31 December 1699).

paragraph: The child Jai Singh II then came to the throne and raised his family and kingdom (known as Jaipur after him) to the first rank in Rajasthan after an eventful career of 44 years.

paragraph: Ui-te-Rangiora

paragraph: Ui-te-Rangiora is believed to have been a 7th-century Polynesian navigator from the island of Rarotonga. According to Māori legend, Ui-te-Rangiora sailed south and encountered ice floes and icebergs in the Southern Ocean. He called this area of southern ocean Tai-uka-a-pia (sea foaming like arrowroot) due to the ice floes being similar to arrowroot powder. It is also claimed by some that Ui-te-Rangiora reached the Ross Ice Shelf, although he did not land on it.

paragraph: Section::::Authenticity.

paragraph: The veracity of Ui-te-Rangiora reaching Antarctic waters has been questioned. It has been claimed that in 1886 Lapita pottery shards were discovered on the Antipodes Islands, indicating that Polynesians did reach that far south.

paragraph: Enderby Island, considerably south of Antipodes in the Auckland group, has been found to have proof of 13th- or 14th-century Maori use.

paragraph: Section::::Possible discovery of Antarctica.

paragraph: Very little is known about Ui-te-Rangiora, or about early Polynesia for that matter, but it is told in Māori legends that, around the year 650, Ui-te-Rangiora led a fleet of Waka tīwai southwards in the Southern Ocean until they reached ""rocks that grow out of the sea, in the space beyond Rapa"". This may be a description of sea ice and icebergs.

paragraph: Simon II of Clermont

paragraph: Simon II of Clermont-Nesle (c. 1210 – 1285/86) was Seigneur (Lord) of Ailly, Maulette and Nesle (in Picardy) . Note that there is a great confusion of names and titles within this family and with people with the same or similar names, as with many other medieval lords because of contradictory and incomplete documents.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.

paragraph: Simon was the eldest son Raoul I of Clermont-Nesle (c. 1185 – c. 1226), Seigneur of Ailly, Maulette, and perhaps Nesle "jure uxoris" and the Constable of France, who was son of Simon I, Seigneur of Ailly-sur-Noye , younger brother of Raoul I the Red, Count of Clermont, married to Alix, daughter of Valeran III. Simon's mother was Gertrude of Nesle (1175–1239), daughter of Jean of Nesle, Châtelain of Bruges (d. 1197/1200), sister of Jean II, Seigneur of Nesle (d. 1239), who testamented Nesle to Raoul and his heirs, lacking own issue. Simon had several siblings, a brother Raoul (d. a. 1243), lord of Tartigny, sometimes numbered II, and hence a possible ancestor to some of the children, especially those attributed to Simon's son Raoul, when one regards the Seigneurie of Tartigny.

paragraph: Simon was a counsellor of King "Saint" Louis IX of France, especially in areas of justice. Jointly with Matthieu of Vendôme he was the regent of the kingdom in 1270–71 when Louis and his son Philip were away on the Seventh Crusade, using the title "lieutenant" (i.e. "having the place"). In the process of canonisation of king Louis in 1283 he was one of those bearing witness.

paragraph: Simon was also a tutor of the "Enfants de France", the children of the king, appointed by Philip III.

paragraph: Simon is accounted of the foundation of Hôtel de Nesle , to accommodate nobility in Paris, instead of their first Hôtel de Nesle, that was ceded to King Louis IX, and the construction was enabled through the promininet positions of his sons Raoul and Guy, and their wealth. The hotel was connected to Tour de Nesle, and eventually sold to King Philip IV of France in 1314. It became famous for the dramatic "Tour de Nesle Affair" that had widespread consequences.

paragraph: Following the death of Simon the 2nd, the House of Clermont began its deterioration. With Simond the 2nd of the 12th century being arguably the most honorable member of the House. By the end of the 15th century the House of Clermont was no longer a powerful and influential player in French politics and royalty.

paragraph: Section::::Marriage and issue.

paragraph: In 1242 Simon married Adele ("Alix") of Montfort-l'Amaury (c. 1230 – 1279), daughter of Amaury de Montfort, Count of Montfort-l'Amaury and Constable of France. Their children were probably (records are inconclusive):

paragraph: BULLET::::- Alix

paragraph: BULLET::::- Ide

paragraph: BULLET::::- Isabelle

paragraph: Section::::Note regarding the Seigneurie of Breteuil.

paragraph: Conflicting accounts about Seigneurs of Bretuil have emerged. The property of Breteuil had been inherited from Valeran III to his eldest daughter Alix, married to Raoul "the red" , Count of Clermont, and then the youngest, Amicie. When Amicie died in 1226, there seems to have been no obvious legitimate heir and the property went to the French Crown. The same year the property was redeemed with 3000 pounds by "Clémence, wife of Simon of Beausault, and Jeanne of Dargies", assumed to be sisters, in accordance to a previous agreement between Amicie and the king. They are assumed to be relatives within the Clermont family, possibly daughters of Amicie's sister Mathilde or even Amicie herself.

paragraph: The connection with later Seigneurs like presumably Simon, Guy and Raoul is not clear. Several suggestions have been made to resolve the question. Also which distinction should be made between the titles Seigneur of Beausault or Breteuil in this context, and some heir can have one title and others the other in the genealogy. The property may have been divided or the title may have been used honorifically. Another possibility is that either the attribution of Seigneurs of Breteuil to the line of Guy I, or the family relationship is wrong. The Counts of Clermont-en-Beauvaisis belonged to this house of Clermont until the death of Raoul I "the red" in 1191. His daughter Catherine married Louis I, Count of Blois and their son Theobald VI, Count of Blois sold the County of Clermont-en-Beauvaisis to the French Crown in 1218.

paragraph: Not disputed part:

paragraph: BULLET::::- Valéran III, Sire of Breteuil-en-Beauvaisis (d. 1162). Valéran's younger brother Engelraud initiated the line of Châtelains (burgraves) of Breteuil.

paragraph: BULLET::::- Alix (d. a. 1196), married to Count Raoul "the red" (d. 1191), Seigneurs of Breteuil. They had no surviving son for inheritance, only three daughters.

paragraph: BULLET::::- Catherine (d. 1212/23), Countess of Clermont (d. 1212/23), eldest daughter of Alix. Married 1184 to Louis I of Blois (1172–1205), Count of Blois and Clermont-en-Beauvaisis "jure uxoris" with Catherine from 1191. He was the son of Thibaut V "the good" (d. 1191) and Alix of France (1151 – 1197/98).

paragraph: BULLET::::- Thibaut VI (d. 1218), Count of Blois and Clermont-en-Beauvaisis, son of Louis I, grandson to Alix. He married Maud of Alençon and Clémence of Roches, but had no issue. He left some possessions to his aunts, especially Margaret and Isabelle, but sold Clermont to the Crown.

paragraph: BULLET::::- Amicie (d. 1226), youngest sister of Alix, great aunt of Thibaut VI. Married to Baudoin of Donjon (d. 1205/06 ?), secondly Jean Briard, Seigneur of Villiers (d. 1219) and thirdly (b. 1225) Gauthier of Reynel, but issue is not clear. Dame of Breteuil in 1218–1226.

paragraph: A possible continuation of Seigneurs of Breteuil as castle owners is:

paragraph: BULLET::::- Clémence (d. 1231), wife of Simon of Beausault (d. a. 1239), possible daughter of Mathilde (d. 1208), daughter of Valeran III, with Simon I of Clermont (c. 1134 - a. 1187), thus a paternal aunt of Simon II if this is correct. Dame (or Seigneurs) of Breteuil in 1226–1231.

paragraph: Margaret Gatty

paragraph: Margaret Gatty ("née" Scott, 3 June 1809 – 4 October 1873) was an English children's author and writer on marine biology. Some of her writings argue against Charles Darwin's "Origin of Species".

paragraph: Section::::Life.

paragraph: Gatty was born in Burnham on Crouch, Essex, the daughter of the Rev. Alexander John Scott, D. D., a Royal Navy chaplain, who served under and was the trusted friend of Lord Nelson on board HMS "Victory" before and during the Battle of Trafalgar.

paragraph: She married the Rev. Alfred Gatty, D.D. of Ecclesfield, Yorkshire, on 8 July 1839 at St Giles in the Fields, Holborn, Camden, and moved into the vicarage of the Church of St. Mary shortly after. She became a highly useful and popular writer of tales for young people. While her tales were targeted at young people, she hoped that they would influence the minds of adults as well. Among her other books are "Parables from Nature", "Worlds not Realized", "Proverbs Illustrated", and "Aunt Judy's Tales". She also conducted "Aunt Judy's Magazine", a family publication written by various members of Margaret's large family.

paragraph: Section::::Science.

paragraph: Gatty became fascinated with marine biology, through her contact with her second cousin Charles Henry Gatty FRS FRSE FLS FGS etc. There was also possibly some influence from William Henry Harvey, whom she had met while convalescing in Hastings in 1848. Following this, she wrote a book on British seaweeds which was more accessible than previous publications on the subject. She corresponded with many of the greatest marine biologists of her day including George Busk and Robert Brown. Gatty amassed a large collection of marine material, much of it gathered by her correspondents in far-flung corners of the British Empire. This was donated to Weston Park Museum by her daughter, Horatia Katherine Francis Gatty.

paragraph: Section::::Literature.

paragraph: While many see her interests in literature and science to be independent, she used the combination of children’s literature and scientific curiosity as a way to argue against Charles Darwin's "Origin of Species". Primarily with the "Parables from Nature", Gatty was able to preach to children in a way that they enjoyed, and in which God and nature were never to be treated separately. The publication of the "Parables" came out around the same time as evolutionary theories, so her writing was an influence on children's attitudes towards science. Her writing tended to have a strong moral tone, and often used religion and God to influence the upbringing of children. Victorian children's literature at the time was designed to teach children lessons and morals rather than capture their attention. With the increased use of illustrations and folk and fairy tales, children were enjoying reading and were enjoying Gatty's writing.

paragraph: Section::::Private life.

paragraph: Gatty suffered from ill health for most of her life, possibly from undiagnosed multiple sclerosis. Her frequent bouts of illness resulted in a close friendship with Dr George Johnston, who was noted for advocating pain-relieving medication. He advised her to use of chloroform during childbirth and Gatty became the first woman in Sheffield to use the drug during labour.

paragraph: Gatty was the mother of Juliana Horatia Ewing, also a writer of children's books, the musician and author Charles Tindal Gatty and Alfred Scott-Gatty, who served as Garter Principal King of Arms.

paragraph: Robert Gilfillan

paragraph: Robert Gilfillan (7 July 1798 – 4 December 1850) was a Scottish poet and songwriter.

paragraph: Section::::Life.

paragraph: He was born in Dunfermline in Fife, Scotland, the son of Robert Gilfillan (died 1834), a master weaver, and his wife, Marion Law. In 1811 the family moved to Leith. Around 1812/13 he was apprenticed as a cooper to John Thomson of Peatnook in Leith. In 1818 he returned to Dunfermline to work as a grocer. He returned to Leith in 1821 and worked in various warehouses and wine stores.

paragraph: His connection with Dunfermline was by no means severed as it was in the town’s Masonic Lodge, Lodge St. John, No. 26 that he was initiated into Freemasonry in December 1821 and, like Robert Burns, he did so before he became famous.

paragraph: He contributed to "Blackwood's Magazine" and "Noctes Ambrosianae" he also represented the Scotman newspaper in Leith.

paragraph: From 1837 he was a collector of the police rates at Leith, based at Leith Town Hall (now Leith Police Station).

paragraph: In April 1850 he organised the restoration of the memorial to Robert Fergusson in Canongate Kirkyard on the Royal Mile.

paragraph: James Granger

paragraph: James Granger (1723–1776) was an English clergyman, biographer, and print collector.

paragraph: He is now known as the author of the "Biographical History of England from Egbert the Great to the Revolution" (1769).

paragraph: Section::::Life.

paragraph: The son of William Granger, by Elizabeth Tutt, daughter of Tracy Tutt, he was born of poor parents at Shaston, Dorset. On 26 April 1743 he matriculated at Christ Church, Oxford, but left the university without taking a degree.

paragraph: Having entered into holy orders, he was presented to the vicarage of Shiplake, Oxfordshire, living a quiet life there. His political views gave rise to Samuel Johnson's remark: ‘The dog is a whig. I do not like much to see a whig in any dress, but I hate to see a whig in a parson's gown.’ Preparation of the materials for his "Biographical History" brought him into correspondence with many collectors of engraved portraits and students of English biography.

paragraph: In 1773 or 1774 he accompanied Lord Mountstuart on a tour to Holland, where his companion made an extensive collection of portraits. Some time before his death he tried unsuccessfully to obtain a living within a moderate distance of Shiplake. On Sunday, 14 April 1776, he performed divine service apparently in his usual health, but, while in the act of administering the sacrament, was seized with an apoplectic fit, and died next morning.

paragraph: A portrait of him was in the possession of his brother, John Granger, who died at Basingstoke on 21 March 1810, aged 82. His collection of upwards of 14,000 engraved portraits was dispersed by Greenwood in 1778.

paragraph: Before the publication of the first edition of Granger's work in 1769 five shillings was considered a good price by collectors for any English portrait.

paragraph: After the appearance of the "Biographical History", books, ornamented with engraved portraits, rose in price to five times their original value, and few could be found unmutilated.

paragraph: In 1856, Joseph Lilly and Joseph Willis, booksellers, each offered for sale an illustrated copy of Granger's work. Lilly's copy, which included Noble's 'Continuation,' was illustrated by more than thirteen hundred portraits, bound in 27 vols., price £42.

paragraph: The price of Willis's copy, which contained more than three thousand portraits, bound in 19 vols., was £38 10s. It had cost the former owner nearly £200.

paragraph: The following collections have been published in illustration of Granger's work: (a) ‘Portraits illustrating Granger's Biographical History of England’ (known under the name of ‘Richardson's Collection’), 6 pts. Lond. 1792–1812; (b) Samuel Woodburn's 'Gallery of [over two hundred] Portraits … illustrative of Granger's Biographical History of England, &c.,' Lond. 1816; (c) 'A Collection of Portraits to illustrate Granger's Biographical History of England and Noble's continuation to Granger, forming a Supplement to Richardson's Copies of rare Granger Portraits,' 2 vols. Lond. 1820–2.

paragraph: Section::::Extra-Illustration.

paragraph: Extra-illustration, the process by which drawings, prints and other visual materials were interleaved with a printed text – often the history of a town, county or notable individual – is frequently called "Grangerising" or "Grangerisation." These terms, however, only came into use from the 1880s, more than a century after Granger's death. Ironically for the process of book customisation that carries his name, Granger never "grangerized" a book. There are many examples of extra-illustration, especially Granger's "Biographical History". The most important and first extra-illustrated Granger was prepared by Richard Bull. Now in the Huntington Library, California, it contains over 14,000 prints across 36 volumes. Another was prepared by the Bristol antiquarian George Weare Braikenridge, who "grangerized" his copy of the "Biographical History" with nearly 4,000 portraits. His main interest, however, was in extra-illustrating his copy of William Barrett's "History and Antiquities of the City of Bristol".

paragraph: Section::::Works.

paragraph: His works are:

paragraph: BULLET::::- "Biographical History of England, from Egbert the Great to the Revolution, consisting of Characters dispersed in different Classes, and adapted to a Methodical Catalogue of Engraved British Heads. Intended as an Essay towards reducing our Biography to System, and a help to the knowledge of Portraits; with a variety of Anecdotes and Memoirs of a great number of persons not to be found in any other Biographical Work. With a preface, showing the utility of a collection of Engraved Portraits to supply the defect, and answer the various purposes of Medals", 2 vols. Lond. 1769, and a supplement consisting of corrections and large additions, 1774; 2nd edit. 4 vols. 1775; 3rd edit. 4 vols. 1779; 4th edit. 4 vols. 1804; 5th edit., with upwards of four hundred additional lives, 6 vols. 1824. A continuation of the work from the revolution of 1688 to the end of the reign of George I appeared in 3 vols. Lond. 1806, from manuscripts left by Granger and the collections of the editor, Mark Noble.

paragraph: BULLET::::- "An Apology for the Brute Creation, or Abuse of Animals censured", 1772. This sermon was preached in his church on 18 October 1772, and, as a postscript states, gave almost universal disgust to his parishioners, as "the mention of horses and dogs was censured as a prostitution of the dignity of the pulpit, and considered as a proof of the author's growing insanity".

paragraph: BULLET::::- "The Nature and Extent of Industry", a sermon preached before the Archbishop of Canterbury in the parish church of Shiplake on 4 July 1775. This was dedicated: "To the inhabitants of the parish of Shiplake who neglect the service of the church, and spend the Sabbath in the worst kind of idleness, this plain sermon, which they never heard, and probably will never read, is inscribed by their sincere well-wisher and faithful minister, J. G." This and the previous discourse were well received by the public.

paragraph: Antonio Bryant

paragraph: Antonio Bryant (March 9, 1981) is a former American football wide receiver in the National Football League (NFL). He played college football for University of Pittsburgh, and was recognized as an All-American and Fred Biletnikoff Award winner. The Dallas Cowboys picked him in the second round of the 2002 NFL Draft, and he played professionally for the Cleveland Browns, San Francisco 49ers and Tampa Bay Buccaneers of the NFL.

paragraph: Section::::Early years.

paragraph: Bryant was born in Miami, Florida and graduated from Miami Northwestern High School, where he was a standout high school football player for the Bulls. He was selected as a team captain in three straight years and helped lead his team as a senior to a Class 6A state title and an undefeated record (16-0).

paragraph: Section::::College career.

paragraph: Bryant attended the University of Pittsburgh, and played for the Pittsburgh Panthers football team from 1999 to 2001. He was a first-team All-Big East selection in 2000 and 2001, and was recognized as a consensus first-team All-American as a sophomore in 2000. He also won the Fred Biletnikoff Award as the best college wide receiver in America in 2000; he was the second sophomore to win the award (after Randy Moss). He declared for the NFL Draft after his junior year, leaving as the conference's record holder for regular-season touchdowns (26) and 100-yard receiving games (13).

paragraph: Section::::Professional career.

paragraph: Section::::Professional career.:Dallas Cowboys.

paragraph: Bryant was selected by the Dallas Cowboys in the second round (63rd overall) of the 2002 NFL Draft, after dropping because of character concerns. He was given number 88 with the expectation of developing into a great player and was the first rookie wide receiver to start in a season opener since Michael Irvin. At the time, his 44 receptions ranked third, his 733 receiving yards ranked fourth and his 6 touchdown receptions ranked second all-time for a Cowboys rookie in a season. In 2003, he was moved to third receiver after Terry Glenn was signed as a free agent. That year, he had his signature moment against the Carolina Panthers (one of the top teams in the NFL at the time), on a 4th and 14 last minute game winning acrobatic touchdown reception.

paragraph: In 2004, the arrival of free agent Keyshawn Johnson started to affect his attitude. During a mini-camp practice after being unsatisfied with the number of reps he had, he started cursing and threw his jersey aiming at Bill Parcells head, before the team broke up the fight. Although Parcells gave him a second chance, tensions kept escalating from that point forward. He was eventually traded to the Cleveland Browns after the fifth game of the season, in exchange for wide receiver Quincy Morgan, who also had issues with his team.

paragraph: Section::::Professional career.:Cleveland Browns.

paragraph: In 2005, he had his best season up to that point, leading the team in catches (69), receiving yards (1,009 yards) and touchdowns (four). He became a free agent at the end of the year.

paragraph: Bryant signed as a free agent with the San Francisco 49ers in 2006. On March 1, 2007, he was released one year after he signed a four-year, $14 million contract.

paragraph: Section::::Professional career.:San Francisco 49ers.:Reinstatement.

paragraph: On September 17, 2007, Bryant was reinstated by the league, but was not able to sign with a team, partly because of a failed drug test over the summer. In October, he filed a lawsuit against the NFL to try to get them to stop drug testing him since he was not a player at the time, and to drop the failed drug test. In December, the case was resolved without the details being released.

paragraph: Section::::Professional career.:Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

paragraph: After not playing the previous year, on March 10, 2008, Bryant signed a deal for the veteran minimum with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He had a career game on Monday Night Football against the Carolina Panthers, finishing with 9 receptions for 200 yards, including a one-handed touchdown catch dubbed "catch of the year". Despite his performance, the Buccaneers lost 38-23. Bryant finished his best season as a pro with 83 catches for 1,248 yards and 7 touchdowns while averaging 15 yards per catch. He became the team's leading receiver and the second player in franchise history to record three or more consecutive 100-yard receiving games. On February 18, 2009, he was given the franchise tag by the Buccaneers. On February 25, 2010, he was waived after a somewhat disappointing and injury-plagued season.

paragraph: Section::::Professional career.:Cincinnati Bengals.

paragraph: After finishing an injury-plagued season and coming off surgery to repair cartilage damage in his left knee, the Cincinnati Bengals took a gamble and signed Bryant on March 10, 2010, to a four-year contract worth a reported $28 million, along with multiple incentives.

paragraph: After the Bengals signed Terrell Owens, Bryant gave up his No. 81 jersey for Owens, who had worn the number his entire career. In return for the number, Bryant requested Owens make a donation to his charity and wore jersey No. 19 instead. After struggling in practices and not being able to play in any of the pre-season games because of problems with his left knee, the Bengals released him on August 29.

paragraph: Section::::Professional career.:Seattle Seahawks.

paragraph: On June 12, 2012, Bryant worked out for the Seattle Seahawks by attending their three-day mini-camp and took a physical for the team as well. On June 15, 2012, it was reported that he finished all three of the minicamp practices, indicating that his chronic knee injury had healed. After being out of football for two years, Bryant signed with the Seahawks on July 26. His stay with the team was short lived, as he was released on August 5.

paragraph: Boris Paichadze

paragraph: Boris Paichadze (, ; ; 3 February 1915 – 9 October 1990) was a Georgian footballer, who played for FC Dinamo Tbilisi. The largest stadium in Georgia, the Boris Paichadze Stadium in Tbilisi, is named after him. In 2001, he was voted the best of the 20th century.

paragraph: Section::::Career.

paragraph: Born in Chokhatauri, Paichadze's family moved to Poti when he was 7 years old. He started playing career in some local youth football clubs there. During these times, football was just making its first steps in Georgia and there was only a few clubs established. However, every city had its own selection of footballers. Paichadze joined the team of Poti at the age of 16.

paragraph: Paichadze was invited to Dinamo Tbilisi in 1936 by coach Jules Limbeck. He made debut in Soviet Top League during that season, being able to score 13 goals in 12 games. Paichadze later declared that it was Limbeck, who pioneered the coaching in Caucasus via his lectures, attended by various managers across the region.

paragraph: Paichadze became top scorer of Soviet Top League in 1937 season. However, the most efficient season for him was 1939, when he scored total 25 goals for Dinamo. Paichadze was prized by the various sporting media sources, after his performance against CDKA Moscow in November, when Dinamo was able to win the game 5-4, after losing the first half 1-4.

paragraph: During 1941 Soviet Top League season, Dinamo was one of the leaders of league table, when the championship cancelled due to World War II. Alongside with his teammates, Paichadze joined the army.

paragraph: After three years of cancellation, championship again resumed in 1945. Paichadze returned to Dinamo and again became one of the key figures of the club. However, in 1947, in a game against Torpedo Moscow, Paichadze got serious injury after the collision with Nikolai Petrovich Morozov. It prevented him playing for nearly two years. After recovering, he never regained the old playing form and soon decided to retire from football.

paragraph: In 1953, soon after retiring from football, Paichadze was invited back to Dinamo to become a head coach of the club. He accepted and managed his former club for only two seasons without any success. He resigned in 1954, claiming that ""being a good player doesn't mean you are a good coach"".

paragraph: Section::::Personal life.

paragraph: Paichadze later declared that he had a close relationship with famous Soviet politician Lavrentiy Beria. Beria, who is considered to be a huge fan of Dinamo, even prevented Paichadze from moving to Spartak Moscow, that was very keen to sign Paichadze during his peak years.

paragraph: Paichadze was nicknamed ""Caruso of football"" in Romania by the local fans and journalists, after his performance in a friendly tournament held in the country in 1945.

paragraph: Paichadze was a close friend to a Georgian Greco-Roman wrestler Givi Kartozia.

paragraph: In 1975, Paichadze made a cameo appearance in film "Pirveli Mertskhali (The First Swallow)", directed by Nana Mchedlidze, who invited the former footballer as a consultant as well.

paragraph: Chad Larson

paragraph: Chad Albert Larson (born October 27, 1965) is an American musician, best known as the co-founder and bass guitarist for the Orange County rock band The Aquabats, in which he performs under the stage name and persona of Crash McLarson. From 2012 to 2014, Larson also played Crash McLarson on The Hub original series "The Aquabats! Super Show!".

paragraph: Section::::Biography.

paragraph: Larson has been a member of The Aquabats since the group's inception, having co-founded the band alongside Christian Jacobs and Boyd Terry in 1994. In the earliest days of the band, Larson played trombone before switching to bass guitar. Since then, he's acted as one of The Aquabats' most prominent songwriters, writing or co-writing a majority of the band's material. On "The Aquabats! Super Show!", Larson worked as an occasional composer alongside his other bandmates in addition to his co-starring role, as well as contributing screenwriting credits, most prominently on the 2013 episode "The Shark Fighter!".

paragraph: In the early 1990s and up until their break-up in 1997, Larson was also the bassist for the hardcore punk band B.H.R., an acronym whose meaning regularly changed. In 1999, Larson performed anonymously with other members of The Aquabats in the side project The Sandfleas, where he played guitar under the stage name "Breath".

paragraph: Outside of The Aquabats, Larson made a career as a professional electrician, up until the network acquisition of "The Aquabats! Super Show!" enabled him and the rest of the band to work on the series full-time. He currently lives in Huntington Beach, California with his wife and four children, and, like bandmates Jacobs and Ian Fowles, is a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

paragraph: James Briggs (musician)

paragraph: Randall James Briggs, Jr. (born February 27, 1978), credited professionally as James R. Briggs, Jr., is an American musician, best known as the keyboardist for the Orange County rock/ska band The Aquabats, in which he has served as a member since 1996 under the stage name and persona of Jimmy the Robot. Briggs also portrayed this role on The Aquabats' television series "The Aquabats! Super Show!" during the show's run from 2012 to 2014.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.

paragraph: In 1996, at the age of 18, Briggs joined The Aquabats. In addition to keyboards, Briggs also contributed tenor saxophone to much of the band's music, up until the departure of trumpeters Catboy and Prince Adam in the early 2000s led to the band's decision to continue without a horn section, transitioning Briggs' role in the band entirely to keyboards and synthesizers, performing solo saxophone parts only on select songs for The Aquabats' live shows.

paragraph: Briggs' original stage name, as also credited in the liner notes for "The Fury of The Aquabats!", was "Jaime the Robot", "Jaime" being a Spanish-language twist on the name Jimmy, given to him by fellow Aquabat Catboy. In 1998, while The Aquabats were developing a television pilot with Buena Vista Television, Briggs' name was changed to simply "The Robot" to avoid copyright issues with the "Get Smart" character Hymie the Robot. Briggs kept this title until 2004, when it was changed to his current stage name.

paragraph: Outside of his work with The Aquabats, Briggs has contributed saxophone to several albums by the indie pop band Bikeride featuring former Aquabats members Adam Deibert and Charles Gray, as well as having contributed saxophone to the Rx Bandits 1997 debut "Those Damn Bandits". Up until the network acquisition of "The Aquabats! Super Show!" enabled him to work on the series full-time, Briggs worked for his family's rare coin store, Coop's Coins, in Redlands, California. Briggs still works at the coin store as his schedule permits.

paragraph: Stine and his wife Barbara were friends of author Robert A. Heinlein, who sponsored their wedding, as Harry's parents were dead and Barbara's mother too ill to travel. Several of Heinlein's books are dedicated one or both of them, most particularly "Have Space Suit - Will Travel". Stine also wrote science fiction under the pen name "Lee Correy" in the mid-1950s, as well as writing science articles for Popular Mechanics.

paragraph: Section::::Model rocketry.

paragraph: After White Sands, Stine was employed at several other aerospace companies, finally ending up at Martin working on the Titan project. This job was short-lived: he was abruptly fired in 1957 when United Press called him for a reaction to the launch of Sputnik 1, and he repeated to them a passage from his just-published book "Earth Satellites and the Race for Space Superiority", in which he wrote, "For the first time since the dawn of history, the Earth is going to have more than one moon. This is due to happen within the next few months—or it may have already happened even at the time you are reading this." The next day he was told to clear out his desk.

paragraph: Back in his days at White Sands he had handled inquiries from young people concerning rockets, and early in 1957 he wrote an article for "Mechanics Illustrated" about rocket safety. Shortly thereafter he received a letter from Orville Carlisle, who had begun making small models and, more importantly, replaceable solid fuel engines to power them. Stine was impressed with the samples that Carlisle had sent him, and wrote a cover article for the October "MI" issue about them. After the Martin firing, he contacted Carlisle and the two of them formed Model Missiles Inc., the first manufacturer of model rockets and their engines. Stine also founded the National Association of Rocketry (initially called the Model Missile Association) and wrote the safety code which became its centerpiece; he served as its president until the late 1960s.

paragraph: MMI was short-lived, as they were unprepared to handle the level of business they attracted and because of some poor business decisions. Issues with the production of early engines caused them to seek out Vernon Estes, who came to them in the summer of 1958. Estes's design and construction of "Mabel", the first engine-manufacturing machine, was the foundation of his success and put Estes Industries in a dominant position in the hobby which it was never to relinquish.

paragraph: Stine continued to work to popularize the hobby, writing the "Handbook of Model Rocketry" in 1965, which went on through seven editions over the years. He returned to the aerospace industry, continuing to write under his pen name, including a Star Trek novel called "The Abode of Life" and the original novel "Shuttle Down". Under his own name, he was a regular science-fact columnist for Astounding and its later successor Analog, where his intriguing articles were in a position to influence two generations of budding scientists, social thinkers and film artists. He was a consultant to CBS television news during the Apollo program, along with Lindy Davis, Charles Friedlander and Richard C. Hoagland. Stine would also occasionally advise Rick Sternbach and Mike Okuda in their work for "" as technical artists and advisors, and was credited in "" for that assistance. The character named "Harry Stein" in the novel Stardance (by Spider Robinson and Jeanne Robinson) is a homage to Stine.

paragraph: Section::::Other work.

paragraph: Stine was very interested in the interaction of volunteer/free market Libertarian ideas with space colonization and as a tool of citizen diplomacy and world peace, and so was called to serve as Chair of the Advisory Board of the Libertarian International Organization where he mentored various citizen initiatives until his death. In the wake of his book, "The Third Industrial Revolution," he was asked to co-organize the American Astronautical Society 1977 conference on private Space Colonization to re-channel focus away from Space exploration alone, and where he received an award as a Founder of the international space effort. He was interested in the concept of non immediate profit-driven free markets, and was seen as a developer and defender of the "pay it forward" approach with Robert A. Heinlein, a term also popularized in a movie of that name, starring Kevin Spacey and other stars. In addition to "The Third Industrial Revolution", he wrote several other books encouraging public awareness of the possibilities of a lucrative and socially beneficial active space industry.

paragraph: Stine was a founding member of the Citizens' Advisory Council on National Space Policy, and attended several meetings including the 1980 meeting that prepared the space defense policy papers for the Reagan Transition Team. The Council was instrumental in developing the Reagan Strategic Defense Initiative which became known as Star Wars.

paragraph: Additional speculative works later in his life included "Warbots", a fictional concept based on a melded human/robotic military force that utilized a mixed combination of AI-driven robotic military units with on-site human commanders and enlisted personnel to assess the situation and adjust goals and activities to match the conditions of action in the face of inevitable changes, focusing on the power and dispensability of AI-driven machines with the flexibility and adaptability of the human mind and body.

paragraph: He died on November 2, 1997, in Phoenix, Arizona, of an apparent stroke.
