paragraph: Rico Henry

paragraph: Rico Antonio Henry (born 8 July 1997) is an English professional footballer who plays as a left back for club Brentford. He is a product of the Walsall academy and represented England at U19 and U20 level.

paragraph: Section::::Club career.

paragraph: Section::::Club career.:Walsall.

paragraph: Henry joined Walsall at age 11 and progressed through the youth ranks to make his first non-competitive senior appearance for the club shortly after his 16th birthday, in a pre-season friendly against Leeds United in July 2013. One year later, he signed his first professional contract after impressing for the club's youth team. Henry received his maiden calls into the first team squad for two League One matches in September and October 2014 respectively, before making his competitive debut with a start in a Football League Trophy northern area semi-final shootout win over Tranmere Rovers on 9 December. He made his league debut four days later, playing the full 90 minutes of a 3–1 victory over Barnsley. Henry made eight further appearances during the 2014–15 season, but his progress was disrupted by a dislocated shoulder. He signed a two-year contract extension in April 2015 and was named as Walsall's Young Player of the Year.

paragraph: Henry broke into the starting line-up on a full-time basis during the 2015–16 season. He had a successful season, making 44 appearances, scoring three goals, signing a new three-year contract and winning England youth international recognition. Walsall consistently challenged for promotion during the season and finished in third position to qualify for a place in the 2016 League One play-offs, but Henry's season ended with a 6–1 aggregate defeat to the eventually-promoted club Barnsley in the semi-finals. He was recognised for his performances during the season, winning the September 2015 Football League Young Player of the Month award, in addition to being named in the League One PFA Team of the Year and receiving a nomination for the Football League Young Player of the Year award.

paragraph: Henry made three early-2016–17 season appearances, before suffering a dislocation to the same shoulder previously injured in February 2015 after half an hour of 0–0 draw with Oldham Athletic on 13 August 2016. The Oldham appearance proved to be Henry's last for Walsall and he departed the Bescot Stadium on 31 August. He made 57 appearances and scored three goals for the club.

paragraph: Section::::Club career.:Brentford.

paragraph: On 31 August 2016, Henry signed for Championship club Brentford for an initial fee of £1.5m on a five-year contract, rising to £5 million. The transfer reunited Henry with former Walsall manager Dean Smith and the fee made him the Bees' record transfer fee paid for a teenager. He underwent surgery on the dislocated shoulder on 8 September and after returning to fitness, he made his first Brentford appearance on 21 February 2017, with a start in a 2–1 victory over Sheffield Wednesday. He immediately replaced Tom Field as head coach Dean Smith's first-choice left back and made 12 appearances before his season was ended by a knee injury suffered in training in early May 2017.

paragraph: Henry returned fit for the start of the 2017–18 season, but his season was ended on his eighth appearance by a serious knee injury suffered in a 2–2 draw with Middlesbrough on 30 September 2017. Henry returned to full-contact training in October 2018 and on 24 November, he made his first appearance for nearly 14 months, coincidentally against Middlesbrough, with a late substitute appearance in a 2–1 defeat. He scored his first goal for the club in a 3–1 win over Stoke City on 12 January 2019 and his performances throughout the month led to his nomination for the PFA Fans' Player of the Month award. A foot injury suffered in February saw Henry miss two months of the season and he finished an injury-affected campaign with 16 appearances and one goal.

paragraph: Section::::International career.

paragraph: On 10 November 2015, Henry received his first call-up to the England U19 squad for friendly matches against the Netherlands and Japan. He won four caps at U19 level. Henry was named in England's U20 squad for the 2017 Four Nations Tournament and appeared in all three matches as the Young Lions won the competition. Henry was named in the England squad for the 2017 U20 World Cup, but was forced to withdraw due to injury.

paragraph: José Mange

paragraph: Joseph Julien Casimir Mange, known as José Mange (10 October 1866, Toulon – 7 January 1935, Toulon) was a French Impressionist landscape painter and Occitan poet who was a member of the Félibrige.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.

paragraph: From 1876 to 1886, he was a student at the Catholic College of Aix-en-Provence, where he met Paul Cezanne during a visit to the Musée Granet and decided to take up art. Accordingly, he moved to Paris, taking lessons from Jean-Paul Laurens and Benjamin-Constant. While there, he met with old friends from College at the Café Procope and their mutual admiration for Frédéric Mistral led him to join the Parisian branch of the Félibrige. In 1892, together with Charles Maurras, he founded the "Escolo Parisienco", devoted to assisting young people from Occitania who had left their families to fame and fortune in Paris. The following year, he had his first showing at the "Salon des Indépendants" and, in 1894, set up his first small studio with a friend.

paragraph: In 1900, after a successful show at the Salon d'automne, he returned to Toulon, but continued to participate in exhibitions in Paris. In 1902, at the first "Salon des Amis des Arts", he withdrew his works in protest over the poor display that was given to his old mentor Cézanne.

paragraph: In 1905, his parents bought him an old photography shop for use as a studio. By 1917, now married, he was able to move into larger quarters and, three years later, had become successful enough to lease two workshops. In 1926, he made an extended visit to Serres in Hautes-Alpes, where he produced a popular series of watercolors. In 1929, he briefly returned to Paris to do some cityscapes.

paragraph: During the last years of his life, he struck up a friendship with Georges Bernanos and they dedicated several books to one another.

paragraph: Shery (Egypt)

paragraph: Shery (or Sheri) is the name of an Ancient Egyptian official who lived in the Old Kingdom, in the Fourth Dynasty.

paragraph: Section::::Sources.

paragraph: Shery is known from his mastaba at Saqqara that was found and partly recorded in the nineteenth century AD. His wife was called Khentetek; a second woman appearing in his tomb decoration was called Inet and may have been a second wife (or mother?). Shery held the title “Overseer of all wab-priests of king Peribsen in the necropolis of king Senedj”, “Great One of the Ten of Upper Egypt” and “God´s Servant of Senedj”. Senedj´s name is written in archaic form and set in a cartouche, which is an anachronism, since the cartouche itself was not yet used until the end of 3rd dynasty under king Huni. As the latter king is little known, the titles given to Shery are of special importance. The inscription for Shery suggests to Egyptologists, such as Wolfgang Helck, that Peribsen died during the reign of Senedj and that the relationship between the two kings was a peaceful one.

paragraph: Don Julius Caesar d'Austria

paragraph: Don Julius Caesar d'Austria (1584 or 1585—25 June 1609) was the oldest illegitimate son of Holy Roman Emperor Rudolf II and his long-term mistress, Catherina Strada. A schizophrenic, d'Austria died serving a life sentence in prison following his murder of a barber's daughter in 1608.

paragraph: Section::::Early life.

paragraph: D'Austria was born to Emperor Rudolf II and Catherina Strada in 1584 or 1585, the eldest of their six children. Despite his illegitimacy, Emperor Rudolf provided his son with a comprehensive education, and actively sought a good position at a royal court.

paragraph: Section::::Český Krumlov.

paragraph: Emperor Rudolf purchased Český Krumlov castle to serve as his son's seat, and Don Julius arrived first in 1605. In 1607, Don Julius invited Markéta Pichlerová, the daughter of a local barber, to live with him. Her parents agreed. Showing signs of schizophrenia, Don Julius behaved violently towards Pichlerová, including cutting and beating her. Thinking he had killed her, he tossed her body out of a window, but she survived and recovered.

paragraph: According to local chronicler Václav Březan, "She was so terribly damaged that she was no longer a single piece of body, and in this condition she was thrown by him to the rocks. But it wasn't meant to be her last hour, because she fell on a rubbish heap which saved her life. Once she was healthy again she hid herself from him, but he kept returning to her mother so Markéta had to go to him again."

paragraph: Section::::Murder and Death.

paragraph: Don Julius requested that her parents allow her to return. When her father refused, Don Julius put him in prison. After five weeks, the father relented and Markéta returned. On Monday, 18 February 1608, Don Julius murdered Markéta and disfigured her body. Březan recorded the event: "On the 18th of February, Julius, that awful tyrant and devil, bastard of the Emperor, did an incredibly terrible thing to his bed partner, the daughter of a barber, when he cut off her head and other parts of her body, and people had to put her into her coffin in single pieces."

paragraph: Emperor Rudolf did not defend his son, and ordered his imprisonment for the remainder of his life. Julius died on 25 June 1609 after showing significant signs of schizophrenia, refusing to bathe, and living in squalor; his death was apparently caused by an ulcer that ruptured.

paragraph: Clap! Clap!

paragraph: Cristiano Crisci, commonly known by stage name Clap! Clap!, is an Italian producer and DJ. He is a long time jazz musician and previously worked under the alias Digi G'Alessio.

paragraph: Section::::Career.

paragraph: Crisci's first release on Origami Sound in 2013 entitled "Gwidingwi Dema" marked his arrival onto the electronic music scene as Clap! Clap! Since then he has had numerous critically acclaimed releases on Bristol-based label Black Acre. His inaugural Album "Tayi Bebba", supported by Gilles Peterson, was hailed as one of Okay Africa's 'Best Albums of 2014', and was on Bleep.com's 'End of Year Roundup 2014'. The track "Viarejo" was featured on the soundtrack of "Grand Theft Auto V" for Microsoft Windows and current-gen consoles.

paragraph: Crisci's musical style is eclectic and draws from many influences. His productions feature his own field recordings mixed with West African percussions and Latin soca influences, but also draw on contemporary electronic music movements, with his use of staccato found in Chicago 'Footwork', and Italian folk rhythms and melodies.

paragraph: Clap! Clap! provided additional production on 3 of the tracks in Paul Simon's album "Stranger to Stranger". "The Werewolf", "Street Angel" and "Wristband" include 'Beats by Clap! Clap!' and use African sounds with a modern electronic dance twist, providing both fans of Paul Simon and Clap! Clap! with an entirely new listening experience. In an interview with NPR's All Songs Considered, Simon called Clap! Clap!'s album Tayi Bebba a masterpiece.

paragraph: Following on from "Tayi Bebba", Crisci's second album "A Thousand Skies" was released on Black Acre in February 2017, marks the artist's progression sonically and visually. Compared to previous releases, "A Thousand skies" is softer, with the new record serving as an eclectic mix of Crisci’s career to date by combining samples and live instrumentation with collaborators such as South African folk singer Bongeziwe Mabandla, John Wizards, and ØY. As with his debut, the album is anchored by a story — this time of a young girl’s journey through the stars — which completes the work. “I like to write what the music gives me when I listen to it,” Crisci explains. "Nguwe", featuring Bongeziwe Mabandla, to date has been featured in Okay Africa, with an album announcement in Resident Advisor and fellow Italian animator Jonathan Calugi providing a whimsical visual accompaniment for "Hope".

paragraph: Julio Xavier Labayen, OCD, DD (23 July 1926 – 27 April 2016) was a Roman Catholic bishop. Ordained to the priesthood in 1955, Labayen served as bishop of the Territorial Prelature of Infanta, Philippines from 1966 until 2003. He was the first Filipino Carmelite bishop when he was ordained on 8 September 1966 and the second bishop of the Prelature of Infanta.

paragraph: Section::::Early life and family.

paragraph: Julio Lizares Labayen Jr. was born on 23 July 1926, at 1:25 AM at Talisay City, Negros Occidental. He is the third child of nine children (eight boys and one girl) born from Julio Diaz Labayen Sr. and Mercedes Labayen (née Mercedes Alunan Lizares). He was baptized at the San Nicolas de Tolentino Parish in the same city he was born on 2 April 1927 and was confirmed 19 May of the same year.

paragraph: The Labayen family transferred to Bacolod City three years after Nonoy's (Julio Jr.'s nickname) birth. It is in this city that he will finish his elementary education. Afterwards, he studied his secondary education at Negros Occidental High School from 1938-1941, only to be interrupted by the closing of schools due to the outset of the Second World War. He graduated from high school in 1944.

paragraph: The Japanese occupation during the Second World War, despite its horrendous effects, also brought the leader within the young Julio Jr. To distract the minds of the young people from the war, he organized together with his siblings and friends a basketball league in their neighborhood. Nonoy would earn the monicker "Scoring Machine" for his prowess in playing basketball.

paragraph: Section::::Religious formation.

Antonio Fortich who later on became a bishop and a fellow critic of Marcos. At the time of his transfer to Iloilo, Nonoy would still serve in the Mass at the Assumption Convent and sometimes at the Carmelite Monastery. He would keep this stint until his entrance to Carmel at age 22.

paragraph: His love for the Eucharist also brought him to join a youth group in his parish devoted to foster the devotion to Jesus' body in the form of bread. He also became a catechist in their parish.

paragraph: Section::::Discerning the call to priesthood.

paragraph: Despite the usual attraction to the opposite sex during his youth, Julio Jr. felt called towards religious life. After high school, the young man approached his mother to ask permission to pursue this longing to be a priest. But his mother did not allow him, thinking that it was just a surge of emotions. She asked him to take first a two-year college program so that he could think and assess himself more. Julio Sr. wanted a doctor in his family - as such his son would pursue a pre-medicine course at the Colegio de San Agustin de Iloilo. There he would play for the school's basketball team and would herald a no-defeat record with his team.

paragraph: He graduated in 1947 with an Associate of Arts degree in Preparatory Medicine. But still the call to priesthood continues to beckon the young man.

paragraph: Section::::Carmelite vocation.

paragraph: "Seeing he was dressed in full carmelite garb, to me, was love at first sight" was how Julio Jr. would describe his first meeting with Fr. Patrick Shanley, OCD, then the chaplain of USA Army. This meeting was arranged by the Carmelite nuns of Iloilo City where three young men, including Julio Jr., were considering entering the religious vocation. This instant attraction led Fr. Shanley, OCD to promise to the young man, to whom he has seen an ardent desire to enter the Order, that he would be communicating with him again in case he was accepted for the novitiate in the United States.

paragraph: Meanwhile, Julio Jr. studied Latin in San Jose Seminary with the Society of Jesus for two years as the subject is a requisite for the seminary life. After a seemingly long wait of two years, the Washington Province of the Order of the Discalced Carmelites notified the three young men that they were accepted as novices in Brookline, Massachusetts in Boston. They began their arrived at the Monastery of the Espousal of Mary and Joseph on 15 October 1949, coinciding with the Carmelite Solemnity of Saint Teresa of Ávila.

paragraph: On 6 November 1949, Julio Jr. received the brown habit of the Carmelites as a novice and took the religious name Br. Xavier. After the yearlong period of novitiate, he made his first Profession of Vows as a religious and would adopt the religious name Br. Xavier of the Immaculate Heart. His made his definitive profession, his Solemn Profession of Vows in Rome, Italy on 14 May 1953.

paragraph: Section::::Studies and academic achievements.

paragraph: It was also in 1949 that Br. Xavier, OCD begun his studies on Bachelor's Degree in Philosophy at Holy Hill, Wisconsin where he graduated in 1952 as magna cum laude. Thereon, he transferred to Rome to study at the Teresianum to study Theology. Again, he finished his Master's Degree in Theology with flying colors as a cum laude on 1957. He then enrolled at Pontifical University of Saint Thomas Aquinas commonly known as the "Angelicum" to study Canon Law. Proving again his intellectual competence, he finished his Master's Degree in Canon Law, now as summa cum laude in 1959.

paragraph: Section::::Priesthood.

paragraph: Together with five deacons, Adeodato Giovanni Cardinal Piazza ordained Rev. Xavier, OCD as a priest on 4 June 1955 in Rome, Italy. Due to his studies, he was only able to celebrate his thanksgiving mass in his hometown Bacolod City since he was ordained on 14 November 1959.

paragraph: He returned to the Philippines at the behest of Bishop Patrick Shanley, OCD to join the Carmelite mission in Infanta, Quezon. It was at that he received his first assignment as the assistant parish priest of St. Joseph's Parish in Polillo, Quezon. After this short stint, he became the parish priest of the same parish on 1960.

paragraph: In this short span of time, the worsening health condition of Bishop Shanley, OCD compelled the first bishop of Infanta to return to the United States. With this situation, the young Fr. Xavier, OCD, with a short pastoral experience, was appointed Apostolic Administrator of the Prelature on 23 June 1961.

paragraph: During this time the Second Vatican Council was held in Rome. The ecumenical council, which was convened by Saint John XIII on 11 October 1962 and closed by Blessed Paul VI on 8 December 1965 that the Catholic Church gradually opened its doors to the people of the modern world. Erstwhile, in the Asian setting, getting wind of the changes already happening in Rome, the Jesuits organized a workshop on social action apostolate in Hong Kong on September 1965. Fr. Xavier, OCD attended the said workshop and at his return to the Philippines, he was asked by his fellow participants to convince the Catholic Bishops' Conference of the Philippines (CBCP) to organize the social apostolate arm of the local Church. With this, he was appointed to be the first national director of the National Secretariat for Social Action (NASSA) which was created in January 1966.

paragraph: It was not surprising that the Holy See chose him to be the shepherd of the Prelature of Infanta eight months later.

paragraph: Section::::Bishop of the Prelature of Infanta.

paragraph: In the tradition of the Roman Catholic Church of the choosing and appointment of bishops, the election of the priest raised to the episcopate takes effect upon the promulgation of the papal bull of appointment. Hence, Fr. Xavier, OCD formally became Bishop-Elect Julio Xavier Labayen, OCD as the Prelate of Infanta and at the same time Titular Bishop of Sinnuara on 26 July 1966. The bishop-elect was 40 years old at that time. It was on the rainy morning of 8 September 1966 that Bishop Labayen, OCD received episcopal consecration from the hands of Rufino Cardinal Santos and the two co-consecrators namely Bishop Alfredo Obviar and Bishop Pedro Bantigue. People from different walks of life witnessed the consecration at the National Shrine of Our Lady of Mt. Carmel, New Manila, Quezon City on that Thursday morning. He was the first Filipino Carmelite bishop.

paragraph: Msgr. Labayen, as was the tradition of calling bishops monsignor during the Pre-Vatican II period, was installed as the second Prelate of Infanta on 12 September 1966 at the Cathedral of Infant Jesus of Prague and St Mark the Evangelist in Infanta, Quezon. With the title monsignor, and like many of his contemporaries, Bishop Labayen, OCD was trained in the mindset of the Pre-Vatican II Church. He related with his priests and the faithful with letters and memoranda. But the younger priests who were already sharing the vision of the Vatican II threw straight to the bin his correspondences as they preferred dialogue! This was the turning point of Bishop Labayen, OCD, an event he described "I felt like Saul knocked off his horse." He continues, "The urge to get back on my high horse was strong. But thank God, the grace of that moment has prodded me to remain with my feet on the ground." That is the kickstarter of the pastoral style that characterized Bishop Labayen's ministry.

paragraph: Section::::Church of the Poor.

paragraph: The Church in the Philippines declared during the Second Plenary Council of the Philippines (informally known as the PCP-II convoked in 1991) that "As we approach the year 2000, Christ bids this community—ourselves, the laity, religious and clergy of the Catholic Church in the Philippines—to be a Church of the Poor." This vision, first arose during the Second Vatican Council, upholding Catholic social teachings, were adapted by local conferences such as the Episcopal Conference of Latin America (CELAM) when they declared the "preferential option for the poor" and the Federation of Asian Bishops' Conferences (FABC) declaring the same in 1975.

paragraph: Long before the declaration of PCP-II, Bishop Labayen, OCD was an ardent proponent of the Church of the Poor in the Philippines which was his brainchild in the Prelature of Infanta. He became its servant leader and shepherd as he launched the program "Church of the Poor" in the prelature in 1979. The program prioritized to serve those neglected by the society: workers, indigenous people and others who relied on no one but themselves. As a shepherd, he immersed himself with the people and established dialogue in the grassroots, a concept the laity never imagined to happen. As such he became close to the heart of the people who loved him as a father.

paragraph: Section::::Retirement.

paragraph: With the Church's regulations on mandatory retirement when bishops step on age 75, Bishop Labayen, OCD submitted his retirement letter to the Holy See. But still he was ask to wait for his successor as the bishop prelate. On 28 June 2003, he was formally relieved of his duties and was replaced by his Carmelite confrere, Bishop Rolando Tirona, then occupying the see of Malolos. Bishop Labayen, OCD was 57 years a priest, 42 years as bishop and 75 years of age at his retirement. After his retirement, he occasionally still visited the "Bahay-Kubo" as he calls the bishop's residence, until his health stopped him from doing so. This raised criticism from people, but he explained that retirement is only to "re-tire" or to change tires, towards a renewed vigor of service. As such, the bishop was still prolific in his social advocacies even in his retirement.

paragraph: Years after, he spent his last years in Antipolo City, Rizal being taken care of one of the congregations he founded.

paragraph: Section::::Death.

paragraph: Bishop Labayen, OCD died on 27 April 2016 at 6:52 AM. People poured from different walks of life during his wake in different locations: first in Quezon City, then to Baler, Aurora, and after to Infanta, Quezon. His remains was returned to his retirement place in Antipolo City where he was buried in a crypt under the congregation's chapel on 3 May 2016.

paragraph: Charles Seignobos

paragraph: Charles Seignobos (b. 10 September 1854 at Lamastre, d. 24 April 1942 at Ploubazlanec) was a French scholar of historiography and an historian who specialized in the history of the French Third Republic, and was a member of the Human Rights League.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.

paragraph: Seignobos was born to a Republican Protestant family in 1854 at Lamastre in the Ardèche department of France, the son of Charles-André Seignobos, the deputy for Ardèche from 1871 to 1881 and again from 1890 to 1892 and also the Councillor of Lamastre from 1852-1892. He passed his baccalaureat in 1871 at Tournon, where he studied with the French Symbolist poet and critic Stéphane Mallarmé. After a stellar academic career at the École normale supérieure where he took courses with Numa Denis Fustel de Coulanges and Ernest Lavisse, he completed a degree in history.

paragraph: He moved afterwards to Germany where he studied for two years, spending most of his time in Göttingen, Berlin, Munich, and Leipzig. Named to a tenured position as Maître de conférences at the University of Burgundy in 1879 and a professor at the Écoles des hautes études internationales et politiques (HEI-HEP), he defended his doctoral thesis in 1881, and then was named to a position at the Sorbonne. He is regarded, along with his friend the physiologist Louis Lapicque, as one of the two founders of the scientific and humanistic community "Sorbonne-Plage" at L'Arcouest in Ploubazlanec, near Paimpol. (Marie Curie had a house constructed there and moved there in 1912).

paragraph: His brother Raymond Seignobos succeeded their father (who had been a mayor for just a few weeks in 1870) as Mayor of Lamastre from 1895 to 1914.

paragraph: Charles Seignobos died in April 1942 after having been placed under house arrest at Ploubazlanec in Brittany.

paragraph: Considered along with Charles-Victor Langlois as one of the leading proponents of the historical method, Seignobos wrote a number of works on political history which implemented the German historical method, benefiting from his excellent knowledge of linguistic particulars in documentary research in English and German. He is, as a result of his critical reading of manuscripts, regarded as one of the major figures in the history of the historical method.

paragraph: To emphasize the importance of primary sources, Seignobos and Langlois in their handbook ""L’Introduction aux études historiques"" (1897) coined the famous maxime ""L'histoire se fait avec des documents"".

paragraph: George Bell (outfielder)

paragraph: Jorge Antonio Bell Mathey (born October 21, 1959), better known as George Bell, is a Dominican former left fielder and American League MVP in Major League Baseball who played 12 seasons for the Toronto Blue Jays (1981, 1983–1990), Chicago Cubs (1991) and Chicago White Sox (1992–1993). Bell batted and threw right-handed.

paragraph: Section::::Career.

paragraph: Originally signed by the Philadelphia Phillies in 1978, Bell was selected by the Toronto Blue Jays in the 1980 Rule 5 draft. Bell was discovered in the Dominican Republic by Blue Jays scout Epy Guerrero. His first season as a regular was in , when he teamed with Lloyd Moseby and Jesse Barfield to form a successful outfield for the Blue Jays. That outfield, along with solid starting pitching, led the Blue Jays to their first-ever American League East division title in . Bell caught a fly ball, off the bat of Ron Hassey, for the final out in the 5–1 victory over the New York Yankees on October 5, clinching the division title for the Blue Jays. Despite Bell's .321 average in the ALCS, they lost the series to the Kansas City Royals.

paragraph: His best season came in when the Blue Jays ultimately fell two games short of the Detroit Tigers in the division race. Bell finished with a .308 BA, .352 OBP, .608 SLG, 111 R, 47 HR and a league-leading 134 RBI. He was awarded the American League MVP award that year.

paragraph: On April 4, , Bell became the first player in Major League history to hit three home runs on an opening day (all of them coming off of Bret Saberhagen), however, his play throughout the year declined as he conflicted with Blue Jays manager Jimy Williams, who wanted Bell to become the Jays' full-time designated hitter.

paragraph: Bell had a bounce-back year in , posting a .297 average, 18 HR and 104 RBI, helping the Blue Jays win their second division title. However, in the ALCS, he only hit .200 with one home run, as they lost the series to the Oakland Athletics. Bell became a free agent after the season and signed with the Chicago Cubs. After one year with the Cubs, he was traded across town to the Chicago White Sox for Sammy Sosa and Ken Patterson.

paragraph: He played two years with the White Sox, recording 25 HR and 112 RBI in . In his play declined, primarily due to a persistent knee injury. He was benched in the ALCS against his former team, the Blue Jays, and was released at the end of the season, after which he announced his retirement.

paragraph: Bell was a powerful free-swinger, usually posting a good slugging percentage and relatively low strikeout rate, but a poor on-base percentage. He was known as a mediocre defensive player and played mainly as a designated hitter during the last two years of his career, despite his strong preference for playing in the field. Despite his success on the field, Bell had a love-hate relationship with the fans and media in Toronto, particularly in his later years as his declining defensive game came to overshadow his offensive talents. After the fans booed him for committing an error, he told the media that the fans could "kiss my purple butt." The next day a sign appeared in left field "George, we are behind you all the way." Bell's difficult relationship with the Toronto sports media was exacerbated by his reluctance to do interviews during his early years with the Blue Jays (which was due to his then-weak knowledge with the English language). Towards the end of his time in Toronto, however, Bell warmed to the media, who in turn began to soften their often harsh criticisms of his play and attitude.

paragraph: On May 28, 1989, while with the Blue Jays, Bell hit a walk-off home run in a 7–5 victory over the Chicago White Sox in the final Major League game played at Exhibition Stadium. Bell also homered in the first game at the Blue Jays' new park, the SkyDome (now the Rogers Centre), on June 5, eight days later.

paragraph: George Bell is currently enshrined in the upper deck of the Rogers Centre's Level of Excellence, devoted to players and personnel who have made a significant impact as members of the Toronto Blue Jays. He shares the honor with Tony Fernández, Joe Carter, Cito Gaston, Pat Gillick, Dave Stieb, Tom Cheek, Roberto Alomar, Carlos Delgado, Paul Beeston, and Roy Halladay.

paragraph: In 2004, he was inducted into the Caribbean Baseball Hall of Fame. In 2013, he was inducted into the Canadian Baseball Hall of Fame and Ontario Sports Hall of Fame.

paragraph: Section::::Career statistics.

paragraph: In 1587 games over 12 seasons, Bell posted a .278 batting average (1702-for-6123) with 814 runs, 308 doubles, 34 triples, 265 home runs, 1002 RBI, 331 base on balls, .316 on-base percentage and .469 slugging percentage. He recorded a .964 fielding percentage. In the 1985 and '89 ALCS, he hit .271 (13-for-48) with 6 runs, 1 home run and 3 RBI.

paragraph: Binot Paulmier de Gonneville

paragraph: Binot Paulmier, sieur de Gonneville, French navigator of the early 16th century, was widely believed in 17th and 18th century France to have been the true discoverer of the Terra Australis (which does not refer to Australia).

paragraph: In 1503 de Gonneville, challenging the Portuguese policy of mare clausum, sailed from Honfleur in Normandy with his crew and the help of two Portuguese pilots, heading for the East Indies. When he reached the Cape of Good Hope his ship "L'Espoir" ("The Hope") was diverted to an "unknown" land by a storm. In 1505 he returned claiming to have discovered the "great Austral land," which he also called the "Indies Meridionale." According to de Gonneville, he had stayed six months in this idyllic place, where the inhabitants didn't have to work because of the riches. De Gonneville stated that this land was six weeks' sail east of the Cape of Good Hope.

paragraph: De Gonneville's tale was forgotten until 1663, when Jean Paulmier de Courtonne, Canon of the Church of Saint-Pierre at Lisieux, a relative of de Gonneville's, published a book called "Memoirs Concerning the Establishment of a Christian Mission in the Austral Land", in which he claimed to be the great-grandson of an "Indian" brought back to France by de Gonneville in 1505.

paragraph: De Courtonne's claims struck a chord at a time when French patriotism was offended at the success of the Dutch and the English in making new discoveries in the South Pacific. De Gonneville's long forgotten tales were revived as the basis of a French claim over these new lands. This belief grew in the 18th century and led to French expeditions such as those of Bouvet, Bougainville, and Kerguelen.

paragraph: It is now known that the lands that Gonneville discovered were not the legendary Terra Australis, or as has also been proposed, Madagascar, but are part of the coast of Brazil on and around Santa Catarina Island, and that the inhabitants he encountered, one of whom, Iça-Mirim (whose name the French rendered as Essomericq) was taken back to France and married Gonneville's daughter, were Carijó Indians.

paragraph: Sir George Thomas, 7th Baronet

paragraph: Sir George Alan Thomas, 7th Baronet (14 June 1881 – 23 July 1972) was a British badminton, tennis and chess player. He was twice British Chess Champion and a 21-time All-England Badminton champion. He also reached the quarterfinals of the singles and the semifinals of the men's tennis doubles at Wimbledon in 1911. Badminton's world men's team championships cup, equivalent to tennis' Davis Cup, is named Thomas Cup after him. Thomas lived most of his life in London and Godalming. He never married, so the hereditary Thomas baronetcy ended on his death. Thomas was admired for his fine sportsmanship.

paragraph: Section::::Badminton.

paragraph: Counting both singles and doubles titles, Thomas is the most successful player ever in the All England Open Badminton Championships, considered the unofficial World Badminton Championships, with 21 titles from 1906 to 1928. Four of those titles were in men's singles (consecutive titles from 1920 to 1923), nine in men's doubles and eight in mixed doubles. He won his titles both before and after a hiatus in the competition from 1915 to 1919 due to World War I.

paragraph: He was part of the English team that toured Canada in 1925 to promote the sport on behalf of the Canadian Badminton Association which had recently been formed in 1921. He captained the team again when a second tour was organised during 1930. A match was held at the Granite Club in Toronto which England won 7-2.

paragraph: In 1934 he was co-founder of the International Badminton Federation (now Badminton World Federation), of which he was president from 1934 to 1955.

paragraph: Inspired by tennis' Davis Cup, first held in 1900, and football's World Cup, first held in 1930, Thomas had the idea of organizing an international competition for country teams in badminton. In 1939 his idea was well received at the general meeting of the International Badminton Federation. In the same year, Sir George presented the Thomas Cup, officially known as "The International Badminton Championship Challenge Cup", produced by "Atkin Bros of London" at a cost of US$40,000. The Cup stands 28 inches in height and 16 inches across at its widest, and consists of three parts: a plinth (pedestal), a bowl, and a lid with a player figure. The first tournament was originally planned for 1941–42, but due to World War II was not realized until 1948–49, when ten national teams participated in the first Thomas Cup competition. Despite its British origins, England's best finish in the Thomas Cup has been a third place in 1984.

paragraph: Thomas was inducted into the World Badminton Hall of Fame as an Inaugural Member in 1996.

paragraph: Section::::Chess.

paragraph: Thomas was British Chess Champion in 1923 and 1934. He shared first prize at the 1934/5 Hastings International Chess Congress with the next world chess champion Max Euwe and leading Czechoslovak player Salo Flohr, ahead of past and future world champions José Raúl Capablanca and Mikhail Botvinnik, whom he defeated in their individual games. For Capablanca, this had been the first loss in tournament play for four years, and the first playing the white pieces for more than six years. Also in Hastings, eleven years later, Euwe would become the third world chess champion to be defeated by Thomas in a game.

paragraph: His 'lifetime' scores against the world's elite were however less flattering: he had minuses against Emanuel Lasker (−1, not counting a win in a Lasker simultaneous exhibition in 1896), Capablanca (+1−5=3), Alekhine (−7=6), Efim Bogoljubov (−5=3), Euwe (+1−9=2), Flohr (+2−9=4) and Savielly Tartakower (+3−9=10). He also fared badly against Edgard Colle (+1−9=8). Thomas made even scores with Botvinnik (+1−1), Richard Réti (+3−3=1) and Siegbert Tarrasch (+1−1=3). Against Géza Maróczy, the balance was in Thomas' favour (+3−1=5).

paragraph: Domestically, he held a plus score against his great rival Frederick Yates (+13−11=13), but was less successful against Women's World Chess Champion Vera Menchik (+7−8=7),

paragraph: In 1950 he was awarded the International Master title by FIDE and in 1952, became an International Arbiter. He gave up competitive chess at the age of 69.

paragraph: Empress Jingū

paragraph: , occasionally known as , was a Japanese empress who ruled beginning in the year 201. Her father is and her mother is who is the descendant of , the legendary prince of Korea. The consort to Emperor Chūai, she also served as regent from the time of her husband's death in 201 until her son Emperor Ōjin acceded to the throne in 269. Up until the Meiji period, Jingū was considered to have been the 15th Japanese imperial ruler, according to the traditional order of succession (hence her alternate title ); but a re-evaluation of the extant historical records caused her name to be removed from that list; and her son, Emperor Ōjin, is today considered to have been the 15th sovereign.

paragraph: Section::::Legendary narrative.

paragraph: No firm dates can be assigned to this historical figure's life or reign. Jingū is regarded by historians as a "legendary" figure because there is insufficient material available for further verification and study. Jingū's name before her accession to the Chrysanthemum Throne is said to have been .

paragraph: Although the final resting place of the remains of Empress Jingū is unknown, Jingū's officially designated "misasagi" or tomb can be visited today at Misasagi-chō in Nara. This "kofun"-type Imperial tomb is characterized by a keyhole-shaped island located within a wide, water-filled moat.

paragraph: Kitabatake Chikafusa (1293–1354) and Arai Hakuseki (1657–1725) asserted that she was actually the shaman-queen Himiko. Among modern scholars, Naitō Torajirō posits that she is Yamatohime-no-mikoto, while suggests that she is , daughter of Emperor Kōrei.

paragraph: In 1881, Empress Jingū became the first woman to be featured on a Japanese banknote; however, since no actual images of this legendary figure are known to exist, the representation of Jingū which was artistically contrived by Edoardo Chiossone is entirely conjectural. Actually, Chiossione used a female employee of the Government Printing Bureau as model. This picture was also used for 1908/14 postage stamps, actually the first postage stamps of Japan to show a woman. A revised design by Yoshida Toyo was used for 1924/37 Jingu design stamps. The usage of a jingu design ended with a new stamp series in 1939.

paragraph: The Imperial Household has designated an official mausoleum at "Saki no Tatanami no ike no e no misasagi", Nara, in what was formerly Yamato Province.

paragraph: Excluding the legendary Empress Jingū, there were eight reigning empresses and their successors were most often selected from amongst the males of the paternal Imperial bloodline, which is why some conservative scholars argue that the women's reigns were temporary and that male-only succession tradition must be maintained in the 21st century. Empress Genmei, who was followed on the throne by her daughter, Empress Genshō, remains the sole exception to this conventional argument.

paragraph: Section::::Legendary narrative.:Controversy.

paragraph: According to the "Nihon Shoki", she led an army in an invasion of a promised land (sometimes interpreted as lands on the Korean Peninsula) and returned to Japan victorious after three years. However, no remaining evidence of her rule has been found in Korea, suggesting that the account is either fictional or an inaccurate/misleading account of events that occurred over 400 years before the composition of the "Nihon Shoki". Her son Ōjin was born following her return. The legend alleges that her son was conceived but unborn when Chūai died. After those three years, the boy was born. Either a period of less than nine months contained three "years" (some seasons), e.g. three harvests, or the paternity of her late husband was just mythical and symbolic, rather than real.

paragraph: Some believe that Empress Jingū's conquest is only based on the Gwanggaeto Stele. But the legend of Jingū's invasion of the Korean peninsula also appears in the ancient Japanese chronicles "Kojiki" written in 680 and "Nihon Shoki" written in 720. The "Kojiki" states that Baekje (百済) paid tribute to Japan. See the rebellion of Price Ōyamamori no Mikoto (大山守命). In addition, the "Nihon Shoki" states that Father of Empress Jingū is Emperor Kaika's grandchild and her mother is of the Katsuragi clan.

paragraph: Some assert that characters were modified and the Japanese presence added on the Gwanggaeto Stele. Today, Japanese and some Chinese scholars discredit the intentionally damaged stele theory based on the study of the stele itself and the pre–Sakō and pre-lime-marred rubbings. Japanese military activities, defeated by Gwanggaeto, occupy half of the stele. The interpretation of the stele is still debated because, whether intentionally or not, the stele was damaged and the missing pieces make it impossible to translate. According to the book ""From Paekchae Korea to the Origin of Yamato Japan"" the Japanese misinterpreted the Gwanggaeto Stele. The Stele was a tribute to a Korean king, but because of a lack of correct punctuation, the writing can be translated in 4 different ways; this same Stele can be interpreted as saying Korea crossed the strait and forced Japan into subjugation, depending on where the sentence is punctuated.

paragraph: The Chinese "Book of Song" of the Liu Song dynasty, written by the Chinese historian Shen Yue (441–513), notes the Japanese presence in the Korean Peninsula. However, the Liu Song dynasty, as a southern Chinese dynasty of ancient times, had little contact with northeast Asia and most historians in Korea, Japan and elsewhere believe that this dynasty most likely treated Baekje, Samhan, and Yamato Japan as one and the same. It is unlikely that this error was committed with regards to the Sui dynasty and Goguryeo because they were major powers at the time.

paragraph: The Chinese "Book of Sui" says that Japan provided military support to Baekje and Silla.

paragraph: According to the "Samguk Sagi" ("Chronicles of the Three Kingdoms"), written in 1145, King Asin of Baekje sent his son, prince Jeonji as a hostage in 397. And King Silseong of Silla sent his son in 402; both were attempts to secure military aid from Yamato Japan so that the two nations could continue campaigns they had begun prior to the requests. Further complicating the relationship between the Japanese ruler and Korea is that, according to the "Nihon Shoki", Korean prince Amenohiboko came to Japan, and became the grandfather of Tajimamori, who served Emperor Suinin. Whether the Koreans sent hostages or relatives with familial ties to Korea is debated.

paragraph: William De Morgan

paragraph: William Frend De Morgan (16 November 1839 – 15 January 1917) was an English potter, tile designer and novelist. A lifelong friend of William Morris, he designed tiles, stained glass and furniture for Morris & Co. from 1863 to 1872. His tiles are often based on medieval designs or Islamic patterns, and he experimented with innovative glazes and firing techniques. Galleons and fish were popular motifs, as were "fantastical" birds and other animals. Many of De Morgan's tile designs were planned to create intricate patterns when several tiles were laid together.

paragraph: Section::::Life and work.

paragraph: Born in Gower Street, London, the son of the distinguished mathematician Augustus De Morgan and his wife Sophia Elizabeth Frend, a highly educated woman, De Morgan was always supported in his desire to become an artist. At the age of twenty, he entered the Royal Academy schools, but he was swiftly disillusioned with the establishment; then he met Morris, and through him the Pre-Raphaelite circle. Soon De Morgan began experimenting with stained glass, ventured into pottery in 1863, and by 1872 had shifted his interest wholly to ceramics.

paragraph: In 1872, De Morgan set up a pottery works in Chelsea where he stayed until 1881—his most fruitful decade as an art potter. The arts and crafts ideology he was exposed to through his friendship with Morris and his own insistent curiosity, led De Morgan to begin to explore every technical aspect of his craft. His early efforts at making his own tiles during his Chelsea Period were of variable technical quality – often amateurish with firing defects and irregularities. In his early years, De Morgan made extensive use of blank commercial tiles. Hard and durable biscuit tiles of red clay were obtained from the Patent Architectural Pottery Co. in Poole. Dust pressed tiles of white earthenware were bought from Wedgwood, Mintons and other manufacturers but De Morgan believed these would not stand frost. He continued to use blank commercial dust-pressed tiles which were decorated in red lustre into his Fulham Period (1888–1907). However he developed a high quality biscuit tile of his own, which he admired for its irregularities and better resistance to moisture. His inventive streak led him to spend hours designing a new duplex bicycle gear and also lured him into complex studies of the chemistry of glazes, methods of firing, and pattern transfer.

paragraph: De Morgan's decoration of pottery included chargers, rice dishes and vases. Some of these were made in his works but many were bought as biscuit ware from Wedgwood and others and decorated by De Morgan's workers. Some were signed by his decorators including Charles Passenger, Fred Passenger, Joe Juster and Miss Babb.

paragraph: De Morgan was particularly drawn to Eastern tiles. Around 1873–1874, he made a striking breakthrough by rediscovering the technique of lustreware (characterised by a reflective, metallic surface) found in Hispano-Moresque pottery and Italian maiolica. Nor was his interest in the East limited to glazing techniques, but it permeated his notions of design and colour, as well. As early as 1875, he began to work in earnest with a "Persian" palette: dark blue, turquoise, manganese purple, green, Indian red, and lemon yellow, Study of the motifs of what he referred to as "Persian" ware (and what we know today as fifteenth-and-sixteenth century İznik ware), profoundly influenced his unmistakable style, in which fantastic creatures entwined with rhythmic geometric motifs float under luminous glazes.

paragraph: The pottery works was always beset by financial problems, despite repeated cash injections from his wife, the pre-Raphaelite painter Evelyn De Morgan (née Pickering), and a partnership with the architect Halsey Ricardo. This partnership was associated with a move for the factory from Merton Abbey to Fulham in 1888. During the Fulham period De Morgan mastered many of the technical aspects of his work that had previously been elusive, including complex lustres and deep, intense underglaze painting that did not run during firing. However, this did not guarantee financial success, and in 1907 William De Morgan left the pottery, which continued under the Passenger brothers, the leading painters at the works. "All my life I have been trying to make beautiful things," he said at the time, "and now that I can make them nobody wants them."

paragraph: William De Morgan turned his hand to writing novels, and became better known than he ever had been for his pottery. His first novel, "", was published in 1906, and was an instant sensation in the United States as well as the United Kingdom. This was followed by "An Affair of Dishonour", "Alice-for-Short", and "It Never Can Happen Again". The genre has been described as 'Victorian and suburban'.

paragraph: William De Morgan died in London in 1917, of trench fever, and was buried in Brookwood Cemetery. Recollections of William De Morgan praise him both for his personal warmth and the indomitable energy with which he pursued his kaleidoscopic career as designer, potter, inventor and novelist.

paragraph: Section::::Museums and collections.

paragraph: Collections of De Morgan's work exist in many museums, including the Victoria and Albert Museum, and the William Morris Gallery in London, a substantial and representative collection in Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery, and a small but well-chosen collection along with much other pottery at Norwich. There was an exhibition of his work and of that of his wife, Evelyn, in the De Morgan Centre in Wandsworth, London (part of Wandsworth Museum) from 2002 until 2014. His "dragon charger" is in the Dunedin Public Art Gallery in New Zealand. The National Gallery of Canada in Ottawa has a very good collection of William De Morgan's work given by Ruth Amelia Jackson in 1997 but much of it is kept in store. De Morgan's work is also present in many major collections with decorative art including the Art Gallery of Ontario, Toronto, Canada, the Musee D'Orsay, Paris, Manchester Art Gallery and the Fitzwilliam Museum, Cambridge.

paragraph: A number of properties in the UK open to the public have tiles and pottery on display or incorporated in the building's decoration. These include Wightwick Manor (the National Trust, Wolverhampton), Standen (the National Trust,East Grinstead), Blackwell (Lakeland Arts Trust, Windermere), Leicester Secular Hall and Leighton House (London Borough of Kensington). Long-term loans of artworks from the De Morgan Collection can be seen at Cannon Hall at Cawthorne in Barnsley with a selection of both William's and Evelyn's work on display in the exhibition 'A Family of Artists', also at Watts Gallery in Surrey, and in the new De Morgan Collection exhibition in the Malthouse Gallery at Wightwick Manor, a National Trust Arts & Crafts house in Woverhampton. A selection of ceramics from the De Morgan Collection is on long-term loan to the Ashmolean Museum in Oxford.

paragraph: Ahmad Samani

paragraph: Ahmad ibn Ismail (died January 12, 914) was amir of the Samanids (907–914). He was the son of Isma'il. He was known as the ""Martyred Amir"".

paragraph: Section::::Biography.

paragraph: Ahmad is first mentioned in the early 900s, when he was appointed as the governor of Gurgan. However, Ahmad was soon removed from the governorship because his failure to wage war against the Justanids of Dailam.

paragraph: Ahmad became amir upon his father's death in late 907. Some time afterwards, he was granted the rights to Sistan, the heart of the Saffarid realm, by Caliph al-Muqtadir. The Saffarids' infighting made the job much easier. Ahmad's army travelled from Farah to Bust, where they met little resistance. At the same time, Ahmad's Turkic general Simjur al-Dawati received the surrender of Zarang from al-Mu'addal. The conquest of the Saffarids complete (911), Ahmad appointed his cousin Abu Salih Mansur as governor of Sistan in the following year. The Samanids also captured a Caliphal rebel, Sebük-eri, and sent him to Baghdad.

paragraph: Mansur's oppressive taxation policies sparked a revolt in Sistan within a year of his appointment. The garrison at Zaranj was destroyed, and Abu Salih Mansur was captured. Amr ibn Ya'qub, a Saffarid, was installed, first as a puppet for the leader of the rebellion, then as amir in his own right. A Samanid army, however, under the control of Husain ibn 'Ali Marvarrudhi restored Samanid control to the region. 'Amr was sent to Samarkand; the other rebel leaders were killed.

paragraph: Simjur al-Dawati was then installed as governor of Sistan. Tabaristan and Gurgan, however, soon revolted against Samanid authority as well, and Ahmad was killed before he could deal with them. He was decapitated while sleeping in his tent near Bukhara by some of his slaves (12 January 914). After his death, he was brought to Bukhara and buried in Naukanda. Some of his slaves who had killed the "Amir" were caught and executed, while others fled to Turkestan. He was designated as the ""Martyred Amir"".

paragraph: Ahmad may have become unpopular among his subjects for his order to change the language of the court from Persian to Arabic; this order was soon rescinded. He was succeeded by his young son Nasr II.
