paragraph: Charles, Duke of Orléans

paragraph: Charles of Orléans (24 November 1394 – 5 January 1465) was Duke of Orléans from 1407, following the murder of his father, Louis I, Duke of Orléans, on the orders of John the Fearless, Duke of Burgundy. He was also Duke of Valois, Count of Beaumont-sur-Oise and of Blois, Lord of Coucy, and the inheritor of Asti in Italy via his mother Valentina Visconti, daughter of Gian Galeazzo Visconti, Duke of Milan.

paragraph: He is now remembered as an accomplished medieval poet owing to the more than five hundred extant poems he produced, written in both French and English, during his 25 years spent as a prisoner of war and after his return to France.

paragraph: Section::::Accession.

paragraph: Charles was born in Paris. Acceding to the duchy at the age of thirteen after his father had been assassinated, he was expected to carry on his father's leadership against the Burgundians, a French faction which supported the Duke of Burgundy. The latter was never punished for his role in Louis' assassination, and Charles had to watch as his grief-stricken mother Valentina Visconti succumbed to illness not long afterwards. At her deathbed, Charles and the other boys of the family were made to swear the traditional oath of vengeance for their father's murder.

paragraph: During the early years of his reign as duke, the orphaned Charles was heavily influenced by the guidance of his father-in-law, Bernard VII, Count of Armagnac, for which reason Charles' faction came to be known as the Armagnacs.

paragraph: Section::::Imprisonment.

paragraph: After war with the Kingdom of England was renewed in 1415, Charles was one of the many French noblemen at the Battle of Agincourt on 25 October 1415. He was discovered unwounded but trapped under a pile of corpses, incapacitated by the weight of his own armour. He was taken prisoner by the English, and spent the next twenty-four years being moved from one castle to another in England, including the Tower of London, and Pontefract Castle – the castle where England's young King Richard II, cousin once removed of the then incumbent English King Henry V, had been imprisoned and died 15 years earlier at the age of 33. The conditions of his confinement were not strict; he was allowed to live more or less in the manner to which he had become accustomed, like so many other captured nobles. However, he was not offered release in exchange for a ransom, since the English King Henry V had left instructions forbidding any release: Charles was the natural head of the Armagnac faction and in the line of succession to the French throne, and was therefore deemed too important to be returned to circulation.

paragraph: After his capture, his entire library was moved by Yolande of Aragon to Saumur, to prevent it from falling into enemy hands

paragraph: Section::::Poetry.

paragraph: It was during these twenty-four years that Charles would write most of his poetry, including melancholy works which seem to be commenting on the captivity itself, such as "En la forêt de longue attente". He is often credited with writing the first Valentine's Day poem.

paragraph: The majority of his output consists of two books, one in French and the other in English, in the "ballade" and "rondeau" fixed forms. Though once controversial, it is now abundantly clear that Charles wrote the English poems which he left behind when he was released in 1440. Unfortunately, his acceptance in the English canon has been slow. A. E. B. Coldiron has argued that the problem relates to his "approach to the erotic, his use of puns, wordplay, and rhetorical devices, his formal complexity and experimentation, his stance or voice: all these place him well outside the fifteenth-century literary milieu in which he found himself in England."

paragraph: One of his poems "Is she not passing fair?", translated by Louisa Stuart Costello, was set to music by Edward Elgar. Claude Debussy set three of his poems to music in his "Trois Chansons de Charles d'Orléans", L.92, for unaccompanied mixed choir.

paragraph: Section::::Freedom.

paragraph: Finally freed in 1440 by the efforts of his former enemies, Philip the Good and Isabella of Portugal, the Duke and Duchess of Burgundy, he set foot on French soil again after 25 years, by now a middle aged man at 46 and "speaking better English than French," according to the English chronicler Raphael Holinshed. Philip the Good had made it a condition that the murder of Charles' father Louis of Orleans by Philip's own father, John the Fearless, would not be avenged. (John himself had been assassinated in 1419.) Charles agreed to this condition prior to his release. Meeting the Duchess of Burgundy after disembarking, the gallant Charles said: "M'Lady, I make myself your prisoner." At the celebration of his third marriage, with Marie of Cleves, he was created a Knight of the Golden Fleece. His subsequent return to Orléans was marked by a splendid celebration organised by the citizens.

paragraph: He made an unsuccessful attempt to press his claims to Asti in Italy, before settling down as a celebrated patron of the arts. He died at Amboise in his 71st year.

paragraph: Section::::Marriage and children.

paragraph: Charles married three times. His first wife Isabella of Valois (daughter of Charles VI of France and widow of Richard II of England), whom he married in Compiègne in 1406, died in childbirth. Their daughter, Joan married John II of Alençon in 1424 in Blois.

paragraph: Afterwards, he married Bonne of Armagnac, the daughter of Bernard VII, Count of Armagnac, in 1410. Bonne died before he returned from captivity. The couple had no issue.

paragraph: On his return to France in 1440, Charles married Marie of Cleves in Saint-Omer (daughter of Adolph I, Duke of Cleves) and had three children:

paragraph: Charles appears as "Duke of Orléans" in William Shakespeare's "Henry V." In the 2012 television adaptation "The Hollow Crown," Charles is played by French actor Stanley Weber and is inaccurately portrayed as dying at Agincourt.

paragraph: The critically acclaimed historical novel "Het Woud der Verwachting / Le Forêt de Longue Attente" (1949) by Hella Haasse (translated into English in 1989 under the title "In a Dark Wood Wandering") gives a sympathetic description of the life of Charles, Duke of Orléans.

paragraph: Charles is also a major character in Margaret Frazer's "The Maiden's Tale", a historical mystery and fictional account of a few weeks of his life in England in the autumn of 1439, shortly before his release in 1440.

paragraph: Charles is a minor character in the historical fiction novel "Crown in Candlelight" by Rosemary Hawley Jarman.

paragraph: Ramiro II of Aragon

paragraph: Ramiro II (24 April 1086 – 16 August 1157), called the Monk, was King of Aragon from 1134 until withdrawing from public life in 1137 (although he used the royal title until his death). He was the youngest son of Sancho Ramírez, King of Aragon and Navarre and Felicia of Roucy.

paragraph: Section::::Life before the throne.

paragraph: His father had placed him as a child into the Benedictine monastery of Saint Pons de Thomières in the Viscounty of Béziers. As a respected monk there he was elected abbot of the Castillian royal monastery of Santos Fecundo y Primitivo in Sahagún and later was abbot of the monastery of San Pedro el Viejo at Huesca. Wanting to limit Ramiro's power within the Kingdom of Navarre-Aragon, his brother Alfonso the Battler had blocked his elections as bishop of Burgos and as bishop of Pamplona. In 1134 he had been elected bishop of Barbastro-Roda when the death of his childless brother made him one of the candidates for succession to the crown. Others put forward included Alfonso VII, king of Castile, who as a foreign king found little support, and the choice of the Navarrese nobility, Pedro de Atarés, grandson of Sancho Ramírez, Count of Ribagorza, the illegitimate son of Ramiro I of Aragon. At an assembly at Borja intended to resolve the succession, a misunderstanding alienated Pedro from his supporters, yet they were unwilling to accept the Aragonese-favored Ramiro, and in the end the kingdoms were divided. In Navarre, García Ramírez, a scion of the pre-union royal family of Navarre and protégé of Alfonso VII was chosen king, while in Aragon the choice fell on Ramiro, who suspended his monastic vows to take the crown.

paragraph: Section::::King of Aragon.

paragraph: The reign of Ramiro the Monk, as he is known, was tumultuous. At the beginning of his reign he had problems with his nobles, who thought he would be docile and easily steered to their wishes, but discovered him to be inflexible. In order to produce an heir, he married Agnes, daughter of Duke William IX, Duke of Aquitaine. Once wed, his wife bore a daughter, Petronilla, who was betrothed to Ramon Berenguer IV, Count of Barcelona at the age of one. The marriage contract, signed at Barbastro on 11 August 1137, made Petronilla the heiress to the crown of Aragon, which in event of her childless death would pass to Ramon Berenguer and any children he might have by other wives. Ramon accepted Ramiro as "King, Lord and Father", and the County of Barcelona and the Kingdom were united. This union created the Crown of Aragon, returning the previously-landlocked kingdom of Aragon to the position of peninsular power it had held prior to the loss of Navarre, as well as giving it a window to the Western Mediterranean it would come to dominate.

paragraph: In the time between his accession and the betrothal of his daughter, Ramiro II had already had to put down a rebellion of the nobles, and knowing himself not to be a war king, he passed royal authority to his son-in-law Ramon Berenguer on 13 November 1137. Ramon became the "Prince of the Aragonese people" ("Princeps Aragonensis") and effective chief of the kingdom's armies. Ramiro never formally resigned his royal rights, continuing to use the royal title, and keeping aware of the business of the kingdom, he withdrew from public life, returning to the Abbey of San Pedro in Huesca. He later became known for the famous and passionate legend of the Bell of Huesca. He died there on 16 August 1157, the crown then formally passing to his daughter Petronilla.

paragraph: Romedius

paragraph: Saint Romedius (; died c. 4th century) was a son of the Tyrolese count of Thaur in the Inn valley near Innsbruck). Though the son of a nobleman, as a young man he withdrew to a rock cave in order to meditate. After the death of his parents, he gave away all of his possessions and established himself in the Val di Non () in Trentino.

paragraph: Romedius is often depicted alongside or astride a bear. According to his hagiography he wanted to visit the friend of his youth, St. Vigilius, Bishop of Trento (who died in 405), but his horse was torn to pieces by a wild bear. Romedius, however, had the bear bridled by his disciple David (Davide). The bear became docile and carried Romedius on its back to Trento. The tamed bear is a motif also of Saint Corbinian, bishop of Freising.

paragraph: Section::::Veneration.

paragraph: Upon Romedius' death, his body was laid to rest in a small tomb above his cave in the mountains, a site that was soon visited by pilgrims. The Sanctuary of San Romedio grew from the little church that was built to venerate him to the popular pilgrimage shrine, the "Santuario di San Romedio" is across the lake from Cles at the head of the Val di Non, above the village of Sanzeno. The sanctuary where Romedio lived with his bear companion is a complex of several churches, from the Romanesque period to the 20th century beyond a gateway in the forested slopes. Votive offerings of crutches line the walls of the narrow stone stairwell up to the highest chapel, said to mark the site of the saint's retreat.

paragraph: His local cult, which consolidated itself in the course of the 11th century, was officially recognized in the twelfth by the Bishop of Trento. In 1795, permission was given to read masses in his name in the diocese of Brixen, which at that time included the Northern Tyrol. His cult remains popular in Trentino, Bavaria, and the Tyrol.

paragraph: Section::::Romedius' Bear.

paragraph: In remembrance of this legend, in 1958 Italian Senator G. G. Gallarati Scotti, honorary member of the committee for the foundation of the World Wildlife Fund in Italy, purchased Charlie, a bear intended to be killed, and donated it to the Sanctuary of San Romedio, in the Valle di Non.

paragraph: Today, the Province of Trentino protects the last brown bears of the Alps in the Adamello-Brenta National Park, and, near the Sanctuary, takes care of young bears born in captivity in Trentino .

paragraph: In the work known as "Illustrissimi", a collection of letters written by Pope John Paul I when he was Patriarch of Venice, Romedius' bear is one of the "recipients" of the letters.

paragraph: Daoxuan

paragraph: Daoxuan (; 596-667) was the Chinese Buddhist monk and patriarch of the Vinaya school, who wrote both the "Continued Biographies of Eminent Monks" (續高僧傳 Xù gāosēng zhuàn) and "Standard Design for Buddhist Temple Construction". In legends he is attributed with the transmission of the Buddha relic thar is called Daoxuan's tooth, one of the four tooth relics enshrined in the capital of Chang'an during the Tang dynasty. He is said to have received the relic during a night visit from a divinity associated with Indra.

paragraph: Doaxuan was also a noted and influential bibliographer. His catalogue of Buddhist scriptures 《大唐內典錄》 "Catalogue of the Inner Canon of the Great Tang " aka "Nèidiǎn Catalog" (T2149 ) in 10 scrolls (卷) was commissioned by the Emperor Gaozong and completed in 664. The "Nèidiǎn Catalog" helped to define the shape of the Chinese Buddhist Canon in future years. Influenced by the apocalyptic Mo-fa or theory of the end of the Dharma, Doaxuan was particularly concerned to expose and denounce suspicious (疑偽) or fake (偽) sutras. He witnessed wholesale burning of texts suspected of being fake.. The "Nèidiǎn Catalog" is also notable for being the first bibliographical work to attribute the Heart Sutra to Xuánzàng who died the same year as the catalogue was completed.

paragraph: Mikhail Krug

paragraph: Mikhail Vladimirovich Krug (, the pseudonym literally means "circle"; April 7, 1962 – July 1, 2002), born as Vorobyov (Воробьёв), was a Russian singer, one of the leading singers of the style of songs known as "blatnaya pesnya" (songs about criminal life), or shanson, which has been part of Russian culture since the beginning of the twentieth century.

paragraph: Mikhail Krug was born in Morozovskiy Gorodok, a suburb of the city of Tver.

paragraph: In 1987 Krug participated in a song competition, taking first place. As a result, he took up song-writing seriously.

paragraph: By 1994, he had recorded three albums, which were not released officially, but hundreds of unlicensed copies were distributed. Most of the songs found their way onto his later albums.

paragraph: His first official release was "Zhigan-Limon" (Жиган-лимон), which featured one of his biggest hits, "Kolshchik" (Кольщик). It took him three years until he settled on the final version. A significant portion of Mikhail Krug's songs invoke the secret code of Russian prisons and the symbolism of prisoner tattoos. They describe the emotional emptiness and the despair of the prisoners who are separated from their families and loved ones. He also wrote many love songs, and songs about Tver. Krug liked to associate with criminal elements, which inspired his music and his diamond ring was a gift from the notorious criminal Khobot.

paragraph: In writing his songs, Krug used a 1924 dictionary of underworld slang, compiled by the NKVD.

paragraph: In the late evening of June 30, 2002, Mikhail Krug was fatally wounded in his Tver house by unknown intruders. He died in a hospital a few hours later. In 2012 genetic testing revealed that Krug's killer was Dmitry Veselov, who was murdered in 2002 in Tver.

paragraph: Eddie Hasha

paragraph: Eddie Hasha (died September 8, 1912) was an American motorcycle racer on board tracks early in the twentieth century. His death contributed to the demise of the board tracks. He was nicknamed the "Texas Cyclone" since he was from Waco, Texas, United States.

paragraph: Section::::Racing career.

paragraph: Hasha began racing on board tracks in 1911 at Denver. He rode an 8-valve Indian motorcycle. In May 1911, Hasha attained a speed of 95 miles per hour (153 kilometres per hour) at the Playa del Rey, California motordrome, setting a record for the mile. In 1912, Hasha beat all of the established stars at the Los Angeles Motordome, and set professional records in the process. He then headed from the western United States to the east.

paragraph: At one point Hasha went into a brief hiatus when he worked at a Harley-Davidson dealership in Dallas, having known Arthur Davidson as a close friend and business partner, whom at one time loaned a racing motorcycle to Hasha in a 1910 race, defeating Bob Stubbs at Waco, Texas; he went back into motorcycle racing soon afterwards.

paragraph: Section::::Death.

paragraph: Hasha competed at the Newark Motordrome in Newark, New Jersey on September 8, 1912 in front of 5000 spectators. After the feature event was completed, he competed in a five-mile handicap race against five other riders. Among them was Ray Seymour, who held the world record. Hasha and Seymour were the only two riders to race without a handicap; the other four were given a one-lap handicap. Hasha held a slight lead at the end of the first lap. While leading on the third lap, Hasha's motorcycle began to misfire. He reached his hand down to make an adjustment, and was overtaken by Seymour. Hasha accelerated, picking up enough speed to close on Seymour. Traveling at , Hasha's motorcycle suddenly turned sharply into the rail surrounding the track. The bike rode the rail for around , killing a boy who had put his head over the rail to watch the race. The machine then struck a large post. Hasha flew out of the racing area into the grandstands, and was killed instantly. Three other boys and a young man were also killed. The now-riderless machine dropped back onto the racing surface into the path of last-place rider Johnny Albright. The motorcycle hit the Denver rider in the shoulder and he slid down the track between the two machines. Albright died four hours later without regaining consciousness. Spectators panicked at the sight of a spinning motorcycle heading their way. Several people had broken bones and flesh wounds as they fought and trampled each other in the rush to get out of the way. It took over an hour to clear the grandstands. Medics came from all parts of the city to attend to the injured and those who had fainted.

paragraph: Section::::Impact on board tracks.

paragraph: Hasha's death made the front page of "The New York Times". Having opened earlier that year on July 4, the board track was shut down and never reopened. The deaths brought comparisons between board track racing and Roman gladiatorial contests. Short ¼ – ⅓ mile board tracks began to close after they were labeled "murderdromes" by the media.

paragraph: Henry Wood (cricketer, born 1853)

paragraph: Henry "Harry" Wood (14 December 1853 – 30 April 1919) was an English cricketer who briefly played Test cricket for England, and enjoyed a successful career for Kent and Surrey that spanned the years between 1876 and 1900. A right-handed batsman who also bowled part-time right-arm fast, Wood was primarily a wicketkeeper. He was Wisden Cricketer of the Year in 1891. Although his batting average across his entire first-class career was 16.94, his Test batting average was 68.00 thanks to scores of 59 and 134* in his final two innings. His average is statistically the highest of any England Test player, however a standard qualification of twenty innings played deducts him from the recognised lists. He was the first wicketkeeper to score a Test century.

paragraph: Section::::Player career.

paragraph: Wood was born in December 1853 in Dartford, Kent. He earned early recognition while a pupil at Dartford Grammar School, where his cricketing prowess was first evident. He played cricket as a professional for St Stanislaus College in Tullamore, Ireland in 1877, followed by stints at Catford Bridge and then Dover, Kent. He also made his first-class debut for Kent on 8 June 1876, taking two catches and performing three stumpings, and scoring 12 and 13 with the bat. He would play nine matches for Kent in total, scoring 72 runs at 5.14 but taking 12 catches and performing six stumpings. Outside of cricket, he worked at an engineering firm in Greenwich.

paragraph: It was for Surrey that Wood would be at his most prolific. After a winter stint at Streatham Cricket Ground which enabled him to qualify for selection, he made his Surrey debut on 19 May 1884 against a touring Australian team. He was bowled by Fred Spofforth for a duck but made five in his second innings. He took 21 catches and 12 stumpings in his first season for Surrey, and the next year took 23 further catches and scored three half-centuries. A career best 35 catchesd came in the 1886 season, and a best of 75 with the bat in 1887. In 1888, on the back of tidy glove work, he was chosen to play for England against Australia on 13 August, and though he made eight with the bat he stumped Harry Trott and caught George Bonnor. He then toured South Africa in the spring of 1889, scoring three in the first Test on 12 March, followed by his maiden Test half-century on 25 March when he scored 59 from 89 balls. He continued to be sound with the gloves in England across the 1889 and 1890 seasons, taking 26 catches and three stumpings followed by 31 catches and eight stumpings over those two years. On 19 March he played his final Test, having been selected to tour South Africa for a second time. Batting at eight, he scored an undefeated 134. This was the first instance when a wicketkeeper scored a century in Test match.

paragraph: Towards the later stages of his career he suffered from failing eyesight, and repeated fractures to his fingers. He averaged 30.26 with the bat in 1895 including four half-centuries, and grew more prolific with the gloves: passing fifty catches in a season in both 1896 and 1897. He batting average otherwise remained in the mid-teens, however, and he played only nine matches in 1900 before his professional playing career ended. He became a full-time umpire in 1910, having umpired sporadically as early as 1891, and in total he stood in 94 first-class matches. He died in Waddon, Surrey in 1919.

paragraph: Dudley Brown

paragraph: Dudley W. Brown (born 1965) is an American gun rights lobbyist. He is the founder and executive director of Rocky Mountain Gun Owners and the president of the National Association for Gun Rights, a group that serves as an umbrella coordinator for various state-level pro-gun organizations.

paragraph: Section::::Early life.

paragraph: Brown was raised in South Dakota. Brown became politically active in his college years, where he founded the Colorado State University campus chapter of College Republicans and was elected chairman of College Republicans of Colorado.

paragraph: Brown attended, but did not graduate from, Colorado State University. In 2013, after being questioned about his educational history, Brown changed his biography on his organization's web page to reflect that he had not in fact received a college degree. He reported that he was one credit shy of a degree but participated in the 1989 graduation ceremonies. Brown was arrested in 1988 on substance abuse charges.

paragraph: Prior to becoming a pro-gun lobbyist, Brown worked in various political positions, including working as the Media Director for the Colorado House of Representatives Republican Party caucus.

paragraph: Section::::Political career.

paragraph: Brown is a critic of the anti-gun lobby and moderate interest groups like the Violence Policy Center.

paragraph: A 2014 "Denver Post" article listed Brown as the 24th most powerful person in Denver, Colorado.

paragraph: Section::::Political career.:Rocky Mountain Gun Owners.

paragraph: Brown founded the Colorado organization Rocky Mountain Gun Owners in 1996 as a "no-compromise" alternative to other pro-gun organizations. In the wake of the Columbine High School massacre, Colorado voters passed Amendment 22, a voter-initiated measure requiring background checks of gun purchases at gun shows, closing the gun show loophole. Brown opposed the initiative, stating, "We're under assault right now. We feel like the Jews did in Nazi Germany."

paragraph: In 2002, a complaint was filed against Brown with the Colorado Secretary of State, alleging that a fund-raising letter he wrote supporting the congressional campaign of Marilyn Musgrave violated state law. The complaint claimed that, "As a registered lobbyist, Mr. Brown is clearly prohibited from fund-raising while the General Assembly is in session." Brown called the complaint "frivolous".

paragraph: Brown is known for involving his organization in Republican Party (GOP) primary elections at the state and local levels. In 2012, during a change of leadership in the Colorado State Legislature, Brown supported a pro-gun Senator to take the place of one he felt was not supportive of Second Amendment rights. The state senator whose loyalty to the Second Amendment was called into question called Brown "the most dangerous man in Republican politics."

paragraph: At the Colorado GOP convention in April 2012, RMGO and Brown supported pro-gun candidates and spoke out against those whom they considered anything less. The impact of Brown and RMGO on the 2012 election in Colorado was that nine out of eleven of their endorsed candidates won the general election.

paragraph: In opposition to the Colorado Legislature's gun control legislation in 2013, Brown mobilized thousands of supporters at the capitol building in Denver and also testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee.

paragraph: In 2013, Brown and RMGO assisted on the campaign to recall a Colorado State Senator, Evie Hudak, a Democrat who voted in favor of more restrictive gun laws. The recall was cancelled when Senator Hudak resigned and was replaced by another Democratic Senator, Rachel Zenzinger. Senator Zenzinger lost her re-election bid in the midterm elections of 2014 to the RMGO endorsed Republican candidate, Laura Woods.

paragraph: In October 2014, Brown and RMGO launched a lawsuit against the Colorado Secretary of State to keep RMGO donor information private.

paragraph: During the 2014 midterm elections, three of RMGO's candidates won legislative seats, helping Republicans take control of the Colorado State Senate, which Democrats had controlled for ten years.

paragraph: In 2015, the Colorado State Legislature considered legislation that would bump the magazine limit enacted in 2013 from 15 rounds to 30 rounds. Brown opposed the legislation, arguing that 30 rounds per magazine isn't enough. Brown's opposition to the increased magazine limit drew criticism from fellow gun rights activists. Luc Hatlestad of "5280" magazine wrote that conservatives were questioning whether Brown "is more committed to the money his activism earns him than the alleged principles behind his supposedly high-minded crusade."

paragraph: Section::::Political career.:National Association for Gun Rights.

paragraph: At the national level, Brown's group the National Association for Gun Rights (NAGR) has outspent the National Rifle Association in political lobbying, spending $1.9 million compared to the NRA's $700,000 for the first quarter of 2013. NAGR also ran ads attacking Eric Cantor for his stance on gun policy.

paragraph: Brown was involved in the debate during the Rules Committee meeting at the 2012 Republican Convention in Tampa, Florida. The rules committee voted for an entire set of revised rules, which James Hohmann of "Politico" claims were "negotiated behind the scenes by Romney’s surrogates".

paragraph: Brown and NAGR opposed the nomination of Loretta Lynch for U.S. Attorney General.

paragraph: Brown and NAGR have also criticized gun control advocacy groups such as Moms Demand Action. NAGR and Moms Demand Action have fought over private businesses allowing guns in their stores.

paragraph: In March 2015, Brown and NAGR supported constitutional carry in Kansas.

paragraph: Section::::Political views.

paragraph: Brown has been a vocal critic of the National Rifle Association, saying they are soft on gun control issues.

paragraph: Brown and RMGO in August 2014 protested the gun-ban at a local Colorado library, sending the library a cease and desist order.

paragraph: Brown was quoted in a 2014 "Mother Jones" article, in response to the reporter's efforts to receive an interview, saying, "I don't talk to leftists like you. My guys don't read your crap." The article then states Brown brushed past the reporter, yelled "Pravda" over his shoulder and moved into the crowd.

paragraph: In 2014, Brown was quoted in the "Los Angeles Daily News" opposing gun buyback programs.

paragraph: In a 2014 "Human Events" article, Brown expressed his approval of a verdict to allow guns on Idaho college campuses.

paragraph: "Mother Jones" described Brown as "the face and voice of the absolutist gun-rights movement, which opposes any and all gun-related restrictions."

paragraph: Section::::Reception.

paragraph: In August 2013, NAGR and Dudley Brown were profiled in a "5280" magazine story. According to the article, Brown "savagely and routinely attacks candidates and officeholders unwilling to pledge, in writing, their absolute loyalty to Brown on Second Amendment issues." NAGR was described as a "fund-raising machine that bullies anyone who compromises Brown’s pro-gun, anti-abortion, anti-gay agenda." Former Colorado Republican State Representative B.J. Nikkel said Brown "is a political terrorist and a modern-day charlatan who operates in the shadows and portrays himself as a supposed ‘Christian,’ but he uses the people naive enough to believe him and financially support him.”

paragraph: Brown has been criticized for his fundraising practices. Former Republican Colorado Governor Bill Owens said Brown "makes his money when there’s turmoil, real or perceived, because that’s what gets his members to write him checks." "Ammoland" wrote that Brown's "rhetoric has done more to marginalize Second Amendment activism than all of the slanders from gun prohibition lobbying groups combined."

paragraph: Section::::Turkish-Persian War (1820–1823).

paragraph: The Ottoman–Qajar War was fought between the Ottoman Empire and Qajar Empire from 1821 to 1823.

paragraph: The regime of Crown Prince Abbas Mirza launched an attack on Ottoman Turkey under the leadership of Mohammad Ali Mirza Dowlatshah. The war was sparked by Turkish aid to Azerbaijani rebels in Persia. The rebels had fled from Persia and were given refuge by the Ottomans. The war opened with a Persian invasion of Turkey in the Lake Van region, and a counter-invasion by the Ottoman Pasha of Baghdad (Iraq belonged to the Ottoman Empire), who invaded western Persia. This invasion force was driven back across the border, but Dowlatshah's newly modernized army of 30,000 troops defeated 50,000 Ottoman Turks in the Battle of Erzurum near Lake Van in 1821. A peace treaty in 1823 ended the war with no changes to their mutual border. Musa Khamis Persia army general in this war.

paragraph: The Persians were heavily outnumbered with 30,000 men, led by Crown Prince Abbas Mirza, against the Turks with 50,000 men. However, the Persian army had recently been undergoing new modernisations according to the most up to date European models, with leadership of Abbas Mirza's brother, Dowlatshah, as part of the modernising policy known as Nezām-e Jadīd.

paragraph: Ernst Horn

paragraph: Ernst Horn (born 1949 in Munich) is a German musician who played a crucial part in founding the bands Deine Lakaien, Qntal and Helium Vola.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.

paragraph: Ernst Horn studied conducting, piano, and percussion in Munich, Freiburg and Hamburg. Afterwards, he worked as a conductor at the state theatres of Karlsruhe and Oldenburg, as well as a composer and as a pianist for dramas at the Bavarian State Theatre in Munich. He gave up his career as a conductor in 1985 to become a composer and specialist for electronic music. In the same year, he founded the band Deine Lakaien together with Alexander Veljanov, which is his most famous project since then. The popularity of this band has far exceeded the borders of the German speaking countries. In addition to his main occupation as musician and composer of electronic music, Ernst Horn composes and plays music for dramas and radio plays.

paragraph: Horn created his own style with structured electronic compositions far away from the mainstream. His first solo-work "Einzelhaft" won the Reader Tape Contest of the Keyboard Magazine in 1988. Usually, Horn combines electronic elements with other styles of composition and/or samples. The radio play "Greed Freedom", where the medieval style of a hymn gets connected to spoken word samples, is a good example. It also shows Horn's interest in picking up political and social issues. Another feature that is used here are the voices of children. This element of style is use frequently by Horn as, e.g., on the "Helium Vola" album "Liod", or in the piece "Acht", which shows the good sense of humor of this artist as well.

paragraph: In commissioned compositions for the Neue Philharmonie Frankfurt ("Spiegelarien", 2009) and within the framework of the Leipzig Bach Festival ("B.A.C.H. – Alternative Compositions on Historical Basics", 2012), Ernst Horn combined works of old masters like G. F. Handel and J. S. Bach with his own compositions, which are influenced by 20th-century classical music.

paragraph: Ernst Horn lives and works in Munich. Fellow Municher Rudy Ratzinger (Wumpscut) dedicated a song to him.

paragraph: Johanne Luise Heiberg

paragraph: Johanne Luise Heiberg (; née Pätges; 22 November 1812 – 21 December 1890) was a Danish actress of the 19th century. She is most famous for her work at the Royal Theatre in Copenhagen, where she achieved great success.

paragraph: Section::::Early life.

paragraph: Heiberg was the daughter of a stallholder and innkeeper and his Jewish wife. She showed artistic gifts very early and entered ballet school in 1820. With the help of patrons she was promoted to the rank of an actress and made a successful debut in 1827. From then on she was considered the best leading actress of Danish theatre.

paragraph: Section::::Career.

paragraph: In 1831 she married the famous and much older critic and dramatist Johan Ludvig Heiberg, a marriage that raised her position even further and led to her being known as just “Mrs Heiberg”. “The Heibergs” became a Copenhagen concept and their home was a cultural centre. In return the dual position of the Heibergs as the leading lady of the theatre married to its main playwright also aroused much jealousy and accusations of favouritism. Her great popularity with the public did not prevent her making enemies, and her sometimes aggressive and arrogant one-sidedness (revealed in her autobiography) must be blamed for some of this. Her husband’s time as the director of the Royal Theatre 1849-56 ended in an open conflict with her colleagues, and for a short period she even left the theatre. The death of her husband in 1860 and her age caused her retirement as an actress 1864 — still at her height — though she worked as a stage director until 1874.

paragraph: Mrs Heiberg played about 275 roles. Her exotic beauty combined with culture and elegance secured her position, though she was not the only talented Danish actress of her age. Among her roles must be mentioned some Shakespeare characters (such as Viola in "Twelfth Night") and especially in French comedies and dramas. In Danish dramas she shone in Holberg’s and Oehlenschläger's plays, and especially in her husband’s dramas; her performance in "Elves' Hill" () was a classic. Her strength was intelligence, controlled passion and wit, but she did not show the same talent for tragedy. She was muse to a whole generation of Danish dramatists, and especially inspired Henrik Hertz to write many of his main female roles for her. She also wrote some few (not especially important) vaudeville acts herself; the most popular is "En Søndag paa Amager" (“A Sunday at Amager”, 1845).

paragraph: Section::::Legacy.

paragraph: Søren Kierkegaard wrote a tribute to her in 1847, "The Crisis and a Crisis in the Life of an Actress". Her autobiography, "Et Liv gjenoplevet i Erindringen" ("A Life Relived in Memory", ed. 1891-92) is a major literary work from the Danish Golden Age. It has often been criticised for its subjective descriptions but is still regarded as a pioneering work because of its interest regarding the process of acting.

paragraph: Though she was closely connected to the romantic tradition, Mrs Heiberg is still regarded as a key figure of Danish drama, of similar status as, for instance, Sarah Siddons in England. Beyond any doubt she contributed to the growing public social and moral perception of Danish actors as artists and cultural personalities rather than simply performers.

paragraph: Her image was featured on the front of the Danish 1997 series 200-krone banknote. It went out of print in 2010.

paragraph: The drama "Rain Snakes" (Från regnormarnas liv, 1981) by the Swedish author Per-Olov Enquist fictitiously deals with the relationship between Mrs Heiberg and Hans Christian Andersen.

paragraph: The Danish television drama "1864" (2014) features Mrs Heiberg as muse and confidant of the Council President Ditlev Gothard Monrad, suggesting that she was instrumental in cheerleading him into a foolhardy war.

paragraph: Section::::Views.:Dialogue with Mormons.

paragraph: In November 2004, Mouw offered introductory remarks at a speaking event where Christian evangelist and apologist Ravi Zacharias was the featured speaker, at the Salt Lake Tabernacle at Temple Square in Salt Lake City, Utah. In his remarks, he apologized to Mormons for the way in which many Evangelicals have treated the Mormon faith. "Let me state it clearly," Mouw said.

Since his formal apology to Mormons, he has been criticized by some in the evangelical community for saying that detractors of Mormonism are guilty of “shading the truth.” He has reported that he continues to "get hate mail yet on that."
