paragraph: Joost Berman

paragraph: Joost Berman (9 January 1793 – 18 March 1855) was a Dutch lawyer, judge, politician, poet, nonfiction writer, and editor.

paragraph: Section::::Life.

paragraph: Joost Berman was born in Ouwerkerk as the son of Maarten Berman (1769–1832) en Geertruida der Weduwen (1772?–1844). Along with some contemporaries from an evolving rural farming elite, he managed to complete his studies at the French and Latin schools. When he went on to study law at Leiden University (1814–1817), he was the first of these farmer boys to acquire higher education.

paragraph: After graduating, Joost Berman worked as an attorney in Zierikzee. Subsequently he was employed by the local court, serving as Assistant Clerk to the Court, Clerk to the Court, Judge of Peace, and from 1838 as Canton Judge. In 1843 Jacobus Boeije succeeded Berman as Canton Judge and Berman served again as Clerk to the Court until 1851.

paragraph: Joost Berman wrote several works of poetry mobilizing public opinion against the Belgian Revolution, supporting a continued Dutch rule over Belgium. His dissertation and some other nonfiction works were also published. Berman often wrote for magazines.

paragraph: From 1836 to 1847, Berman was co-editor of the "Zeeland People's Almanac" (Dutch: Zeeuwsche Volks-Almanak), alongside Rev. H.M.C. van Oosterzee. While meticulously covering all of Zeeland, both editors lived in Zierikzee, putting Schouwen slightly more central in the Almanac than customary in Zeeland publications.

paragraph: In the elections of 26 September 1848 for the city council of Zierikzee, Joost Berman received 75 votes, just one vote less than the last candidate to receive a 9 year appointment to the council. Berman and the two candidates behind him were selected to fill in places of deceased council members for a "short" term of 6 years.

paragraph: Section::::Personal and death.

paragraph: On 29 July 1817, Joost Berman married Neeltje Sevenhuizen (1797–1871) from Zierikzee. They had 12 children, 4 of whom died at a young age. In 1823, Berman was released from serving in the Zierikzee's civil guard for health reasons.

paragraph: Berman resigned from the Zierikzee court in 1851. There are indications of hardships around or after this decision. He died in Zierikzee on 18 March 1855, aged 62, after a disease his wife said lasted only 2 days.

paragraph: Joost Berman's son, Alexander Johan, studied at Joost's alma mater to become the Dutch Reformed minister of Watergang. His grandson, Simon Berman, was the mayor of six municipalities in the Netherlands, among which Schagen, Bedum, and Alblasserdam.

paragraph: Matteo Capcasa

paragraph: Matteo Capcasa was a printer and typographer from Parma, in Emilia in central Italy, which at that time was subject to the Duchy of Milan. He was active as a book printer and typographer in Venice from 1485, when he printed a "Vocabularium utriusque iuris" (usually attributed to Jodocus of Erfurt) and an anonymous "Fior di virtù". His workshop was in , where he worked with his brother Giovanni.

paragraph: In 1489 Capcasa began a collaboration with the Florentine publisher – and later also printer - Lucantonio Giunti, with three titles: the works of Ovid; an anonymous translation into the "volgare" of the "Transito de sancto Hieronymo", partly by Eusebius Cremonensis; and a translation of the "Imitatio Christi", authorship of which was at that time attributed to Jean Gerson.

paragraph: Capcasa then collaborated with Bernardino Benagli on a number of illustrated works, including a finely-illustrated "Divina Commedia" of Dante on 3 March 1491, with the new text and commentary of Cristoforo Landino; this Capcasa re-printed on his own account in 1493. Later in 1491 Capcasa fell seriously ill. After his recovery, he again collaborated with Giunti, on a further four works including the "Dialogo della divina Provvidenza" of Catherine of Siena. He also printed a number of books on his own account, including a reprint of the Dante from 1491, another "Fior di virtù", the "Tragedies" of Seneca and the "Epigrammata" of Giovanni Battista Cantalicio.

paragraph: In 1494 he printed two editions for the Florentine publisher Girolamo Biondo: the "De coelesti vita" of Giovanni da Ferrara, and the letters of Marsilio Ficino. In July 1495 he completed printing the "Epistolae" of Francesco Filelfo for the Milanese publisher Ottaviano Scotti. He died shortly thereafter.

paragraph: Johann Emerich was a printer and typographer from Udenheim, near Speyer, in the Rhineland in the Holy Roman Empire. He was active as a book printer and typographer in Venice from 1487, when he collaborated with Johannes Hamman of Landau in the printing of a breviary and a missal, until about 1499, when he spent almost six months on the printing of an illustrated "Graduale secundum morem sancte Romane Ecclesie" for the Florentine publisher Lucantonio Giunti. Emerich is thought to have died at about this time. His fonts and equipment passed to Giunti and enabled him to establish his own printing workshops.

paragraph: Emerich printed about forty works, of which about thirty were for Giunti. These represented about half the total output of the Giunti imprint in the fifteenth century. With the single exception of the "Astrolabium" of Johannes Engel, printed in 1494, all were religious works.

paragraph: Kutsna Amirejibi

paragraph: Kutsna the Chamberlain, "Kutsna Amirejibi", () (fl. 1350–1415) was a Georgian nobleman active during and in the aftermath of Timur's invasions of Georgia. He was a father-in-law of King Constantine I of Georgia and a maternal grandfather of King Alexander I of Georgia.

paragraph: Section::::Origin.

paragraph: It is not completely clear to which noble house Kutsna belonged. The latter part of his name, "Amirejibi", indicates his being a Prince-Chamberlain of the Kingdom of Georgia, but it is also the surname of the aristocratic family better documented from the early 17th century. Modern genealogists in Georgia have accepted the notion that Kutsna was one of the earliest members of that family as plausible. In the view of the historian Cyril Toumanoff, the praenomen of Kutsna as well as that of his grandfather Kurtsik (Khurtsik) may suggest that he belonged to the feudal house of Khurtsikidze or Khurtsidze from Samtskhe. In his charter, Kutsna mentions his homonymous ancestor as having been a constable of Georgia under Queen Regnant Rusudan (r. 1223–1245). But between the constableship of Zakaria II Mkhargrdzeli (who died in 1212) and that of his nephew Avag-Sargis III Mkhargrdzeli (who filled that office from 1233/4 to 1250), the incumbents of it are not known.

paragraph: Section::::Career and family.

paragraph: Kutsna was married to the lady called Rusa (Rusudan; died 1413). Their daughter, Natia, became the consort of King Constantine I of Georgia and mothered Alexander I, at the time of whose birth c. 1390 Kutsna was ambassador to Constantinople. The chronicles describe him as the one who was "greatly ennobled by the kings" and who "headed the army". Both Kutsna and his wife Rusa are known for their restoration of churches and monasteries in the aftermath of Timur's devastations; Kutsna patronized the churches of Ulumba and Nabakhtevi, and Rusa undertook the restoration of the principal cathedral of the Living Pillar at Mtskheta. She also directed the education of Alexander I and influenced the future king's preoccupations and his enthusiasm for religious building.

paragraph: Kutsna appears in the contemporary records for the last time in 1415. He was succeeded by his son Ramin as the head of the family. Kutsna's fresco portrait as well as those of his wife and four children survive in the Nabakhtevi church, in Shida Kartli, east of Surami.

paragraph: Mikky Ekko

paragraph: John Stephen Sudduth (born December 17, 1984), better known by his stage name Mikky Ekko, is an American recording artist and record producer from Nashville, signed to Interscope Records. He is best known for writing and being featured on Rihanna's 2013 single "Stay", which charted in multiple countries, becoming Ekko's first-charting material. Ekko released "Time", his debut studio album, in January 2015 through RCA Records. "Fame", his second album, was released in November 2018 on Interscope Records.

paragraph: Section::::Early life.

paragraph: Born John Stephen Sudduth in Louisiana, Mikky Ekko had a restless childhood as the son of a preacher, moving around America's deep south. Having settled briefly in Tupelo, Mississippi, and absorbed as much gospel as he could, he relocated to Nashville, Tennessee, and started playing in bands. Ekko began working as a songwriter for other artists, but realized that he wanted to be a singer himself. He released his first EP "Strange Fruit" (produced by Tim Lauer) on February 15, 2009 containing the first songs he'd written by himself, most of them a cappella. Ekko says of Nashville: "fortunate to be in a city that's so loving and hospitable." From September 2009, he toured with the Nashville-based collective group Ten Out of Tenn.

paragraph: Section::::Career.

paragraph: Section::::Career.:2008–12: Career beginnings.

paragraph: In 2009 he partnered with producer Tim Lauer and engineer Dan Hansen to record an a cappella version of "Sedated". That led to his first EP "Strange Fruit" which released February 15, 2009. Lauer and Hansen continued to collaborate with Ekko for 2010's "Reds" and "Blues". They worked together to develop the character and sound of Mikky Ekko which led to growing attention in the music business.

paragraph: "Who Are You, Really?", one of the tracks from "Reds", caught the attention of experimental hip-hop producer Clams Casino, who had worked with ASAP Rocky, Lil B and The Weeknd. It was featured in no less than six TV series episodes (Teen Wolf, Ringer, Pretty Little Liars, True Blood, The Blacklist and Reign). The video for "Feels Like the End", his second official single, produced by Nick Ruth and Ekko, was released to YouTube on September 25, 2012, with the digital release following on September 25. "Pull Me Down", written and produced by Ekko and Clams Casino, was released digitally on October 30, 2012. The official video was uploaded to YouTube on November 16, 2012. Ryan Hemsworth released a remix of the song to iTunes on December 7, 2012.

paragraph: Section::::Career.:2012–16: Breakthrough and "Time".

paragraph: In November 2012, Ekko was featured on singer Rihanna's seventh studio album "Unapologetic" on the track "Stay", which became a single in 2013. The song, originally written by Ekko and English songwriter Justin Parker, has charted in multiple countries, becoming Ekko's first-charting material. It gave Ekko his first entry on the UK Singles Chart, charting at number four, and on the US "Billboard" Hot 100 at three. The song charted in the top five of 19 countries, including in Australia, France, Germany, Ireland, New Zealand and Switzerland.

paragraph: Vaballathus

paragraph: Lucius Julius Aurelius Septimius Vaballathus Athenodorus (Palmyrene: 𐡥𐡤𐡡𐡠𐡫𐡶 ; ) 259–74 AD) was emperor of the Palmyrene Empire centered at Palmyra in the region of Syria. He came to power as a child under his regent mother Zenobia, who led a revolt against the Roman Empire and formed the independent Palmyrene Empire.

paragraph: Section::::Early life.

paragraph: Lucius Julius Aurelius Septimius Vaballathus was born and raised in the city of Palmyra, an oasis settlement in the Syrian Desert in 259 to the king of kings of Palmyra, Odaenathus, and his second wife, queen consort of Palmyra, Zenobia. Vaballathus is the Latinized form of his Palmyrene name, "Wahballāt", "Gift of Allāt". As the Arabian goddess Allāt came to be identified with Athena, he used "Athenodorus" as the Greek form of his name. He had a half-brother, Hairan I, born from his father and another woman, who reigned as co-king of kings with his father, and a lesser-known brother, Hairan II. He also might have had other brothers, who were mentioned in (and only known from) the "Augustan History", Herennianus and Timolaus. Herennianus may be Hairan; while Timolaus is probably a fabrication.

paragraph: Section::::As King.

paragraph: Section::::As King.:Succession to the throne.

paragraph: In 267, his father Odaenathus and half-brother Hairan I were murdered by a relative, perhaps a cousin of Odaenthus's, named Maeonius. Maeonius ruled as a usurper and crowned himself emperor but was almost immediately killed, as no inscription or evidence for his rule exists. With Odaenathus and his oldest son dead, the succession came to his younger son, Vaballathus. The young Vaballathus was made king ("rex consul imperator dux Romanorum", "illustrious King of Kings" and "corrector totius orientis") of the Palmyrene Empire at eight years old. Being too young to rule, his mother Zenobia ruled as queen regent and was the "de facto" ruler of Palmyra.

paragraph: Section::::As King.:Reign.

paragraph: Initially the Roman emperor Aurelian recognized Vaballathus' rule, perhaps because he was engaged in conflict with the Gallic Empire in the west and hesitated to incite open warfare with the Palmyrene Empire. This mutual recognition is testified by early coins issued by Zenobia under Vaballathus's name, but also acknowledging Aurelian as emperor. In the coins, Aurelian is shown wearing a radiate crown that signifies his supremacy as emperor, and Vaballathus was crowned with a laurel wreath. The Alexandrian minted coins showed Aurelian in his first year and Vaballathus in his fourth year with Vaballathus adopting honorary titles possibly inherited from his father Odaenathus. Although the Palmyrene Empire was centered in Palmyra, Vaballathus and Zenobia probably spent most of their reign in Antioch, Syria's administrative capital. The relationship between the Roman Empire and the newly established Palmyrene empire deteriorated, and a series of Palmyrene conquests, done under the protective show of subordination to Rome, began around 270.

paragraph: In October of 270, a Palmyrene army of 70,000 invaded Egypt, and declared Zenobia, Vaballathus's mother, the Queen of Egypt. The Roman general Tenagino Probus was able to regain Alexandria in November, but was defeated and escaped to the fortress of Babylon, where he was besieged and killed by Zabdas, a Palmyrene general, who continued his march south and secured Egypt. Afterward, in 271, Zabbai, another Palmyrene general serving Zenobia, started the operations in Anatolia, and was joined by Zabdas in the spring of that year. The Palmyrenes subdued the Asian province of Galatia, and occupied the regional capital of Ancyra, marking the greatest extent of the Palmyrene expansion.

paragraph: Aurelian disappeared from Palmyrene coinage, while Zenobia and Vaballathus adopted the titles of "Augusta" and "Augustus", respectively. Vaballathus was named in coins "King, Emperor, "Dux Romanum" leader of the Romans" and an open rebellion against Rome started.

paragraph: Section::::Defeat.

paragraph: In 272, the Emperor Aurelian crossed the Bosporus and advanced quickly through Anatolia. While the Roman general Marcus Aurelius Probus regained Egypt from Palmyra, the emperor continued his march and reached Tyana. Tyana fell from Palmyrene control; Aurelian up to that point had destroyed every city that resisted him, but he allegedly spared Tyana. Whatever the reason for his clemency, it paid off, as many more cities submitted to him upon seeing that the emperor would not exact revenge upon them.

paragraph: Passing through Issus, Aurelian defeated Zenobia in the Battle of Immae near Antioch. The Palmyrene armies retreated to Antioch, then later Emesa, while Aurelian advanced and took the former. The defeat at Emesa forced the Palmyrene armies to evacuate to the capital. The Romans began a siege, and tried to breach the city defenses several times but were repelled, however, the situation worsened, so Zenobia, Vaballathus's mother, left the city and headed east to ask the Sasanian Empire for help. The Romans followed the queen, arrested her near the Euphrates, and brought her back to the emperor. Soon after, the Palmyrene citizens asked for peace, and the city fell.

paragraph: The end of Vaballathus's nominal rule came after losing the Siege of Palmyra. Vaballathus, his mother and her council were taken to Emesa and put on trial. Most of the high-ranking Palmyrene officials were executed, while Zenobia and Vaballathus's fates remain uncertain. Although Aurelian had most of his prisoners executed, he most likely spared the queen and her son to parade her in his planned triumph.

paragraph: According to Zosimus, Vaballathus died on the way to Rome, but this theory has been neither confirmed nor disproved. Other sources have implied that after shipping the defeated Zenobia and Vaballathus to Rome, Aurelian allowed both of the rebels to live, but only after they had been marched through the streets of the imperial city in accordance with Roman traditions of celebrating military victories with a triumphal procession. This would have been humiliating, but better than death. This theory is supported by Aurelian's similar treatment of the Tetrici, Tetricus I and Tetricus II of the Gallic Empire, long-time enemies of Rome whom the emperor allowed to retire following their defeat at the Battle of Châlons in 274.

paragraph: The fate of Palmyra, however took a turn for the worse. In 273, a revolution was started by Septimius Apsaios declaring a relative of Zenobia, Septimius Antiochus, as "Augustus". Aurelian marched to Palmyra, razing it. Buildings were smashed, citizens clubbed and massacred and Palmyra's holiest temples pillaged. The city was forgotten and reduced and disappeared from historical records at that time, thus ending the ascendance of Palmyrene civilization over the Roman orient.

paragraph: Edgar T. Wherry

paragraph: Edgar Theodore Wherry (1885–1982) was an American mineralogist, soil scientist and botanist. He had a deep interest in ferns and "Sarracenia".

paragraph: Wherry earned his bachelor's degree in chemistry in 1906 from the University of Pennsylvania. He received his doctorate in mineralogy in 1909 from the same university. From 1908 to 1912, he taught at Lehigh University. He lived in Washington, D.C. from 1912 to 1930, part of this time working as an assistant curator of mineralogy for the U. S. National Museum, and also for the Bureau of Chemistry of the United States Department of Agriculture. He taught botany at the University of Pennsylvania from 1930 to 1955, when he retired. He wrote many papers in mineralogy through those years, he was the fourth president of the Mineralogical Society of America (MSA) in 1923.

paragraph: He became interested in ferns at age 30, and did much work in that field the rest of his life. He was president of the American Fern Society from 1934 to 1939. He wrote three key guides to the ferns of eastern North America. The first was "Guide to Eastern Ferns" in 1937, followed by a greatly updated "The Fern Guide" in 1961, and lastly "The Southern Fern Guide" in 1964. He was in the forefront of taxonomic work on ferns, and his field guides provided far more current taxonomy than other guides of the day. He donated all royalties from the fern field guides to the American Fern Society.

paragraph: In 1964, he was awarded the Mary Soper Pope Memorial Award in botany.

paragraph: Ron "Bumblefoot" Thal

paragraph: Ronald Jay Blumenthal (born September 25, 1969), better known by his stage name Ron "Bumblefoot" Thal, is an American guitarist, songwriter, recording artist and producer. He adopted his nickname from the bacterial infection of the same name, which he learned about while helping his wife study for her veterinary exams. The name went from being just the name of an album, to the name of a record label, to a band name, to eventually his name as a solo artist. He was one of two lead guitarists in Guns N' Roses from 2006 until 2014 and performed on their sixth studio album "Chinese Democracy". He is currently the lead guitarist and vocalist for the band Asia, having joined in 2019.

paragraph: Since the early 90s, he has released 10 CDs and a live DVD. He has appeared as a guest performer on other albums and on numerous compilation CD's. He has been the cover feature of GitarPlus magazine in Indonesia and has been featured in several foreign guitar magazines, as well as the subject of many print, radio and web interviews. Over the past twenty years, he has also worked with numerous bands and artists as producer, engineer, writer, arranger, and performer. He also writes TV jingles, theme songs, and background music.

paragraph: Section::::Career.

paragraph: Section::::Career.:Bumblefoot & solo career.

paragraph: Raised Jewish, Thal grew up in Brooklyn and then Staten Island, in the Bay Terrace neighborhood. Thal was inspired by Kiss and their album "Alive!" at age six, Thal claimed his earliest musical goal was to be able to play "like Gene Simmons if someone decided to do a Kiss version of Beatlemania". At the time his hands were too small to play bass, so he focused on guitar, while his brother, Jeff, played drums instead. Thal stated that he figured out multi-track recording by using multiple cassette recorders at age six.

paragraph: By the time Thal was thirteen years old, he was playing cover songs in clubs, later focusing on creating original material on his home 8-track. By sixteen, Thal had started engineering and producing music. When he was eighteen, Thal won his first award, winning a Sam Ash Guitar Solo Contest after playing a spontaneous solo. He played in a New York-based band called 'Legend' in the late 1980s. Thal also played in a cover band called Leonard Nimoy that played songs by Guns N' Roses, AC/DC, KISS, and Aerosmith.

paragraph: In 1989, Thal submitted a demo tape to Mike Varney of Shrapnel Records, which caused Varney to feature Thal in the Spotlight New Talent column in Guitar Player Magazine's August 1989 issue. Upon hearing the demo, Varney commented "[Thal's] demo tape is amongst the most impressive I've ever received. It contains elements of classical, blues, and jazz, and at times reminds me of Frank Zappa. His transcriptions are most impressive and detailed, so fans of hot transcriptions might be interested in seeing these musical masterpieces on paper. With its clever melodies, contrapuntal lines, intricate rhythms, and ultra-complex ensemble sections, Ron's sheer musicality will surely gain him much acclaim." In 1993, Guitar Network Magazine described Thal's playing as "Ridiculous... in a good way".

paragraph: Thal was eventually signed to Shrapnel Records, and his debut album "The Adventures of Bumblefoot" was released in 1995. Thal released "Hermit" on Shrapnel in January 1997, his final album on the label. In late 1997, Thal started a production company called "Hermit, Inc.", then fully adopting the band name Bumblefoot while releasing "Hands" in March 1998. Bumblefoot was a band that featured Thal and his brother Jeff Thal, among other musicians. Bumblefoot released an early version of the album Uncool exclusively in France, touring in the country in March and April 2001. He then began working on his next album "Guitars Suck", but after the September 11 attacks, Thal decided to rename the album 9.11 and turned the album into a non-profit fundraising CD, with all proceeds going to American Red Cross. In late 2001, amidst difficulties keeping a steady lineup, Thal broke up Bumblefoot and adopted it as a solo stage name. He worked on finishing "Uncool", which was released in February 2002. Thal toured Europe as a solo act in 2002, using members from bands he was touring with, including Sun Caged & Plug-In. Sun Caged drummer Dennis Leeflang would later befriend Thal and work extensively with him in his solo career. Thal released a compilation of songs that weren't finished or officially released in April 2003, the Forgotten Anthology. Thal released Normal in 2005. Thal stated of the album "the album takes you into the world of an insane musician who takes medication and experiences what it's like to be 'normal' for the first time. The only problem is that the medicine silences his ability to make music. Eventually he must choose which life he wants. The songs on Normal follow his real-life journey, leaving you to ponder, "What's 'normal,' anyway?"

paragraph: In 2006, Thal's song "Breaking", from the album "Normal", was contributed to the album project "Artists for Charity – Guitarists 4 the Kids", a charity that assists World Vision Canada in helping underprivileged kids in need.

paragraph: In 2007, after 14 months of recording and touring with Guns N' Roses, Thal began recording "Abnormal", which was released in July 2008. During this time, Thal also recorded and mixed the audio of live performances on the TV show Talking Metal On Fuse. Thal performed a cover of "Running Wild" by Judas Priest along with Frank Ferrer on the pilot episode. He also performed on the final episode of the show, accompanying Zakk Wylde in an original song "Til the End", written live on the show. In December 2008 Thal released "Barefoot – The Acoustic EP", which consists of stripped-down acoustic versions of songs from his previous albums.

paragraph: Thal's song "Firebrand" was used as the opening theme for the TV show "MXC" (Most Extreme Elimination Challenge), the American adaptation of "Takeshi's Castle".

paragraph: Section::::Career.:Guns N' Roses (2006-2014).

paragraph: In 2004, after a recommendation by guitar virtuoso Joe Satriani, Thal began talking to Guns N' Roses keyboardist Chris Pitman and sent in a tape of his music. Soon after, Thal claimed on his website he had been asked to join the band but later added "it's not definitely happenin', we're just feelin' it out". In response, Guns N' Roses released a statement saying "To set the record straight, no one has been invited to join the band". In a 2015 Interview, Thal claimed he initially turned down joining the band in 2004, citing commitments to part-time teaching and his solo work.

paragraph: After first meeting the band and jamming with them in 2006, Thal officially joined, filling the position vacated by guitarist Buckethead. Thal made his live debut with the band at the Hammerstein Ballroom in New York City on May 12, 2006 and he also performs on the band's sixth studio album "Chinese Democracy", released in 2008.

paragraph: In a 2013 interview, Thal mentioned that when he first joined the band, he was not welcomed by other members who didn't want a third guitarist in the band. He claimed that he had to "get a little violent" to gain other member's respect. Thal later clarified on his first months in the band, stating in a 2015 interview "it wasn't the warmest welcome. I kind of had to earn it. I think it was just more of a situation like a new family member was brought home without the other siblings' consent." In late 2014, Thal announced that he was 'focusing on his solo career'. In an interview promoting his solo album, when asked about Guns N' Roses, he said he was "avoiding the whole subject [right now]". In February 2015, Thal stated that he was "honoring a request to not make any public statements" about his status with Guns N' Roses. Thal explained further with, "Let folks know I'm not being forced ... It's on me, I've been trying to please both sides at the same time that have a different approach to things, and everyone loses a little in the process — that's on me, not them [Guns N' Roses management]."

paragraph: On July 31, 2015, journalist Gary Graff reported that a 'confirmed source within the band' told him Thal was no longer in Guns N' Roses and had left after the 2014 tour, although no official announcement from Thal or the band was made at the time. Thal discussed leaving the band for the first time in a July 2016 interview, stating "All I could say is you reach a time when you just know it's time to move on".

paragraph: Section::::Career.:Art of Anarchy, Sons of Apollo and Asia (2011-present).

paragraph: In 2011, Thal formed a band with John Moyer of Disturbed, Jon Votta & Vince Votta called Art of Anarchy. The band was formally revealed in January 2015 with an album set for Spring 2015. Scott Weiland provided vocals for the debut album, but later distanced himself from the project, stating he was 'never in the band'. Weiland claimed "I [just] sang over these stereo tracks and then sent [them] back." Former Creed singer Scott Stapp joined the band as lead singer in 2016. The second studio album, titled The Madness was released March 24, 2017. The group stalled when Stapp dropped out of the tour and the future remains uncertan.

paragraph: In August 2017, he joined a progressive metal supergroup named Sons of Apollo with bassist Billy Sheehan, keyboardist Derek Sherinian, vocalist Jeff Scott Soto and drummer Mike Portnoy. To date, they have released one album, entitled "Psychotic Symphony".

paragraph: In 2005, Thal started working out after he noticed his health was deteriorating from overworking, losing 80 lbs. In June 2011, Thal was involved in a car accident that totaled his car. Thal suffered severe injuries, stating in a 2012 interview "I was brain damaged for about a month, I couldn’t speak right, I couldn’t raise my arms. I went to physical therapy" and that "I’m not recovering, and I probably never will." In constant pain from his injuries, Thal had to combine over-the-counter drugs and pain killers with alcohol and steroids in order to tour. In late 2011, Thal chose to tour instead of take time off to heal in order "keep Guns N' Roses alive", later stating the decision resulted in him having nerve damage in both arms in addition to chronic pain 'for the rest of [his] life'. In a 2013 interview, Thal mentioned attempting suicide by drinking himself to death while on tour in 2011, stating "when you torture yourself for a year - post traumatic stress is a real thing, and to have been completely disassociated and becoming very reckless and destructive - getting past that was a really tough time". Thal changed his diet in order to cope with the chronic pain, stating "Food did what medicine couldn't. And I realized that food is the best medicine. When you eat the right things for your body, it'll make more of a difference than any medication could ever do."

paragraph: Thal revealed in late 2014 that he had a cancerous tumor that was found and surgically removed in January 2014.

paragraph: Thal lists his favorite musical artists as Kiss, The Beatles, Queen, Led Zeppelin, Stevie Wonder, Four Tops, Engelbert Humperdinck, Nirvana, Tom Jones, Frédéric Chopin, Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, Iron Maiden, Busta Rhymes, Thank You Scientist & Tom Jobim, along with the genre of Lounge music.

paragraph: William Conway (1802 – November 30, 1865) was a United States Navy quartermaster born in Camden, Maine. At the surrender of Pensacola Navy Yard (also known as Warrington Navy Yard) to the rebels on January 12, 1861, Confederate Lieutenant Frederick B. Kinshaw ordered Conway to lower the American flag. He replied: "I have served under that flag for forty years, and I won't do it." For his refusal, Conway was arrested and clapped in irons. Shortly afterward he was sent north, where he remained until his death at Brooklyn, New York. For his patriotic action, Conway was presented with a gold medal by citizens of California. In August 1906, the Quartermaster William Conway Monument was unveiled at Camden, a granite boulder affixed with a commemorative bronze plaque "honoring his sturdy loyalty."

paragraph: Abu'l-Khayr Khan

paragraph: Abu'l-Khayr Khan (1412–1468) was a Khan of the Uzbek Khanate which united the nomadic Central Asian tribes where the Kazakh Khanate later separated in rebellion under Janibek Khan and Kerei Khan beginning in 1465.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.

paragraph: Abu'l-Khayr was born in 1412. He was a descendant of Genghis Khan, through Jöchi's fifth son Shiban, and a bej of the White Horde. At the time of his birth the "ulus" (tribe) of Siban had divided into separate nomadic groups, one of which was led by Jumaduq Khan. Abu'l-Khayr served in Jumaduq's army, and was taken prisoner when Jumaduq was killed in battle in 1427.

paragraph: After being released in 1428, Abu'l-Khayr began consolidating various nomadic groups of the old Shaybani "ulus" in the area around Tyumen and the Tura River. He deposed and killed Kazhy-Mohammed, the Khan of the Khanate of Sibir, after a battle on the Tobol River, after which he was proclaimed Khan of Western Siberia. The next four years were spent strengthening his control throughout the region.

paragraph: Abu'l-Khayr Khan was assisted in his consolidation by the Manghits, another tribe in the White Horde, and especially by Vaqqāṣ Bej, Edigü's grandson.

paragraph: In 1430–1431 Abu'l-Khayr, joined by Vaqqāṣ, launched on attack on Khwarezm, occupying the regional capital Urganj. The Uzbeks could not hold the city, however, and retreated in the summer of 1431. Abu'l-Khayr's army pulled back to the steppe, where they defeated two opposing khans near Astrakhan. In 1435–1436 the Uzbek armies attacked Khwarezm again, and several years later they raided Astrakhan. Starting in 1446 Abu'l-Khayr and his forces invaded the Syr Darya region, eventually wresting some lands from Timurid control. The town of Sighnaq became Abu'l-Khayr's new capital, from where he later launched raids into Mawarannahr (Transoxiana).

paragraph: In 1451 Abu Sa'id requested Abu'l-Khayr Khan's assistant in battle against ‘Abdullah. Abu'l-Khayr agreed to support Abu Sa'id, and the two armies marched on Samarkand. ‘Abdullah was defeated and killed, after which Abu Sa'id quickly moved his forces into the city and locked the gates, leaving Abu'l-Khayr and the Uzbeks outside. To avoid reprisal, Abu Sa'id presented the Uzbeks with many presents and riches.

paragraph: Abu'l-Khayr Khan died in 1468 (though some sources say 1469 or 1470). After Abu'l-Khayr Khan's death two separate lines of descent controlled the twin Uzbek states of Mawara al-Nahr and Khwarezm. In the first decade of the 16th century his grandson Muhammad Shaybani finally succeeded in the unification of the Uzbeks and established the short-lived Shaybanid Empire, centered in Samarkand.
