<mask>u (; Pinyin: Lín Bóqú; Wade-Giles: <mask>'u; March 20, 1886 – May 29, 1960) was a Chinese politician and poet. An early supporter of Sun Yat-sen and member of the Tongmenghui, as well as a later participant in the Nanchang Uprising and the Long March, <mask> came to be seen as one of the elder statesmen of the Communist Party of China. On October 1, 1949, <mask> presided over the Communist Party's victory ceremony in Tiananmen Square, and stood on the right-hand side of Mao Zedong as he proclaimed the foundation of the People's Republic of China. Biography

<mask>u, born <mask> (林祖涵), was raised in a rural family in a village near Changde, Hunan, and received a state grant to study in Tokyo at the age of 16. There, he joined the Tongmenghui, the revolutionary group founded by Sun Yat-sen. After returning to China, <mask> worked as a school teacher, before he was recruited to the Dongbei region for revolutionary work on behalf of the Tongmenghui. After the fall of the Qing dynasty, <mask> found himself persecuted by the Yuan Shikai regime, and was forced to escape to Japan, where he joined Sun Yat-sen's newly formed Chinese Revolutionary Party (later to become the Kuomintang). Returning to China again, he joined the Communist Party in 1921.Throughout the first half of the 1920s, <mask> continued working with the Kuomintang in different capacities, most significantly as Minister of Agriculture. Eventually shifting his allegiances to the communists, he took part in the Nanchang Uprising in 1927. Shortly afterwards, he left China for a six-year stay in the Soviet Union, where he studied at the Moscow Sun Yat-sen University. He returned in late 1933, and became active in the Jiangxi Soviet, serving as Minister of Finance and presiding over the Council of Agriculture. After taking part in the Long March, he resumed his duties as Minister of Finance from Yan'an and was also elected Chairman of the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia Border Region. In this period, <mask> came to be known as one of the Five Elders of Yan'an (), along with Dong Biwu, Xu Teli, Wu Yuzhang, and Xie Juezai. Due to his seniority and early allegiance to Sun Yat-sen, <mask> was often drawn upon as a resource for diplomatic needs with the Kuomintang.In 1936, he assisted Zhou Enlai in the negotiations with Chiang Kai-shek during the Xi'an Incident, and in the alliance that followed generally helped to facilitate the United Front against the Japanese. In February 1944, <mask> traveled to Chongqing for negotiations with the Nationalist government, and in April 1949, he was again paired with Zhou Enlai for peace talks with Kuomintang general Zhang Zhizhong in Beijing. As the preparations for the formation of the People's Republic of China were underway in the latter half of 1949, <mask> was appointed Secretary General of the Central People's Government Committee. In that role, he presided over the founding ceremony of the new nation on October 1, 1949 - sometimes referred to as the "host" of the celebrations. After the foundation of the PRC, <mask> took up a variety of positions, though preferred to stay out of the political limelight. In September 1954, he was elected Vice Chairman of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress. In the years that followed, he undertook lengthy inspection tours of primarily rural provinces, beginning with his native Hunan and continuing to Guangxi, Jiangxi, Hubei, Shanxi, Inner Mongolia, and Ningxia.<mask> died in a Beijing hospital on May 26, 1960. In a memorial poem, Marshal Chen Yi eulogized him as "a hero always upholding the correct line in his glorious revolutionary career." <mask>'s fellow "Yan'an Elder" Dong Biwu memorialized his friend in two poems following his passing, focusing more on the personal than the political. Deng Xiaoping gave the following tribute, highlighting the breadth of <mask>'s experience as well as the depth of his contribution: "He [went] through three historical stages: the old democratic revolution led by the bourgeoisie, the new democratic revolution led by the proletariat, and the socialist revolution. In every stage of the revolution, he was a complete revolutionary and made an indelible contribution to the liberation of the Chinese people." <mask> is buried at the Babaoshan Revolutionary Cemetery in Beijing, along with other first-generation CCP leaders such as Zhu De, Ren Bishi, Peng Dehuai, and Chen Yun. Posthumous purge

<mask> was posthumously purged during the Cultural Revolution for allegedly opposing the marriage between Mao and Jiang Qing during the Yan'an years.As a result, he was removed from his iconic spot in the official portrait of the 1949 foundation ceremony, like Gao Gang and Liu Shaoqi before him. He was not restored to the painting until 1979. Family and personal life

<mask> was married four times and had eight children. His oldest son, <mask> (林用三), was elected to the Eleventh National Committee of the Chinese People's  Political Consultative Conference in 2008, and has served in a variety of government posts. <mask>'s daughter <mask> studied with Zhou Enlai's adopted daughter Sun Weishi in Moscow, and was later imprisoned for seven years during the Cultural Revolution for supposed associations with Li Lisan. According to his niece, <mask> was a personal friend of Sun Yat-sen, and was with Dr. Sun when he died. Poetry

<mask> was an avid poet, composing prolifically throughout his life.According to the curator of his museum, he wrote over a thousand poems. His work has been published in Chinese as Lin Boqu Collection and Selected Poems of <mask>u. His poem "The Dream of Going Back Home" can be found prominently inscribed on the two-mile long Poetry Wall in his hometown of Changde, listed in the Guinness Book of World Records as the longest wall with engraved arts in the world.

<mask>,  (born 18 July 1949) is a former Australian cricketer rated as the "perfect fast bowler of cricket history". Lillee formed a new ball partnership with Jeff Thomson which is recognised as one of the greatest bowling pairs of all time. In the early part of his career <mask> was an extremely fast bowler, but a number of stress fractures in his back almost ended his career. Taking on a strict fitness regime, he fought his way back to full fitness, eventually returning to international cricket. By the time of his retirement from international cricket in 1984 he had become the then world record holder for most Test wickets (355), and had firmly established himself as one of the most recognisable and renowned Australian sportsmen of all time. Lillee pair with Rodney Marsh is one of the most celebrated bowler-wicket keeper pair of cricket history with Caught Marsh bowled Lillee as one of cricket's folkfare. They both had 95 dimissals in 69 games more then any bowler/fielder combination.<mask>'s tussle with West Indian batting great Viv Richards is part of several cricket's folktale and is recognised as one of the greatest batsman-bowler duel in cricket history. In a fan poll conducted by the CA in 2017, he was named in the country's best Ashes XI of the previous 40 years. On 17 December 2009, <mask> was inducted into the ICC Cricket Hall of Fame. Cricket career
Aged 20, <mask> made his first-class debut for Western Australia in 1969–70 and impressed with his raw pace. Lillee took 32 wickets in his debut season to be WA's leading wicket-taker. At the end of the season, he toured New Zealand with an Australian second team and took 18 wickets at 16.44 average. Early career
The following season, <mask> made his Test debut in the Sixth Test at Adelaide in the 1970–71 Ashes series, taking 5/84 from 28.3 eight-ball overs.His first Test wicket was John Edrich, caught by Keith Stackpole for 130, but it was not until the Seventh Test at Sydney that John Hampshire became the first batsman to be "caught Marsh, bowled Lillee". The following season, during the series against the Rest of the World XI, which had been arranged in place of the cancelled series against South Africa, <mask> announced himself during the first innings of the second unofficial "Test" match at his home ground in Perth, destroying a powerful batting lineup that included Garry Sobers, Clive Lloyd, Rohan Kanhai and Sunil Gavaskar to finish with 8/29 in only 7 overs, which would remain his career-best bowling figures in an innings. Sobers would later comment that as far as particular spells went, <mask>'s bowling that day was the fastest he had ever faced. <mask> then backed up with 4/63 in the second innings to end with match figures of 12/92 as Australia won by an innings. <mask> followed this performance with a successful Ashes tour of England in 1972, when he "asserted himself as a great bowler". In a series that ended 2–2, he was the outstanding bowler on either team, taking 31 wickets at an average of 17.67. This earned him selection as one of Wisden's five Cricketers of the Year for 1973.John Snow believes that Lillee saw reduced effectiveness after being overbowled by Western Australia and Australia in 1971-73. Back injury
During a Test against Pakistan in the 1972–73 season, Lillee felt sharp pain in his back for the first time, but continued to play. On the tour of the West Indies that followed, Lillee broke down completely and was diagnosed with stress fracture in his lower vertebrae. Forced out of cricket, he spent six weeks during the winter of 1973 wearing a plaster cast that encased his entire torso. After the removal of the cast, he played club cricket for Perth as a specialist batsman. He returned to the bowling crease towards the end of the season, guiding Perth Cricket Club to the final at the WACA Ground. There was speculation that his bowling career was nearly over.<mask> persevered, undergoing an intensive physiotherapy routine, formulated by sports scientist Frank Pyke, and remodelling his bowling action. In 1974–75, he returned to Test cricket for the Ashes series and was paired with New South Wales fast bowler Jeff Thomson to form one of the most effective opening bowling combinations in Test cricket. The pair was a major factor in Australia's emphatic 4–1 victory. In 1975, the University of Western Australia timed <mask>'s bowling at 154.8 km/h. <mask> and Thomson
The impact of the <mask>/Thomson bowling attack was summarised during the 1974-75 Ashes series, when Sydney newspaper The Sunday Telegraph ran a photo of <mask> and Thomson with a cartoon caption underneath that read:

<mask> toured England again in 1975. During the inaugural World Cup he captured eight wickets in five matches, including 5/34 against Pakistan at Leeds, which was the first five wicket haul in ODIs. His aggressive bowling was not always suited to the run-containing style required in the one-day game.In the subsequent four-Test series against England, <mask> claimed 21 wickets as his team finished winners by 1–0. With the bat, he made 73 not out at Lord's to rescue Australia from a difficult situation. Another 27 wickets (at 26.37 average) followed in the summer of 1975–76 against the West Indies. At this time, <mask> was one of the most marketable personalities in Australia, but he was frustrated by the small amounts that he earned from the game. Outspoken in his opinions, he came into conflict with the game's administrators. Lillee suggested that a made-for-television exhibition series could be played each season with profits given to the players. John Cornell, his manager, took this idea to Kerry Packer, who later fashioned it into World Series Cricket (WSC).An injury to Thomson early in 1976–77 forced <mask> to take on a greater workload during the six Tests of the season. He responded with 47 wickets including match figures of 10/135 against Pakistan at the MCG and 11/123 at Auckland against New Zealand. In the Centenary Test, his 11/165 was the
decisive performance in Australia's victory. However, the extra exertion created "hot spots" in his back and not wanting to reaggravate his previous condition, he made himself unavailable for the 1977 tour of England. World Series Cricket

Remaining in Australia to do television commentary on the tour, <mask> was isolated from the furore in England surrounding the plans for the breakaway professional competition, WSC. He was announced as one of the WSC players in May 1977. The <mask> image and personality were key components in WSC's innovative marketing of their games.However, he struggled on-field during the first season of WSC and in the winter of 1978 made further adjustments to his action. He also spent time working with ex-World professional sprint champion Austin Robertson, improving his running technique and fitness. In nine "Supertests" (four in Australia and five in the West Indies) during 1978–79, Lillee captured 46 wickets at 22.5 average, with a best of 7/23 against the West Indies XI at the SCG. Cutting down his pace and the length of his run up, Lillee now concentrated on moving the ball off the seam with an occasional faster or slower ball for variation. During the season of his return to official cricket, Lillee collected 35 Test wickets in six matches against the West Indies and England, and gave Australia's bowling attack stability while the selectors experimented with the team. In the World Series Cup, his changed style helped to bring him 20 wickets (at 12.7 average) in eight ODIs, including 4/12 against West Indies and 4/28 against England, both at the SCG. However, the tour of Pakistan that followed was ruined for Lillee by flat batting pitches prepared by local curators to blunt his effectiveness.He managed just three wickets in three Tests. Australian and world records

Against New Zealand and India in 1980–81, <mask> took 37 wickets in six Tests and was the leading bowler in the World Series Cup for the second successive season. He contributed 25 wickets to Australia's first victory in the competition. After breaking Richie Benaud's Australian Test record of 248 wickets, <mask> toured England in 1981 when his preparation was compromised by a viral infection. A return of 39 Test wickets (at 22.30) for series was the best of his career and he won man of the match awards in the first and last Tests. <mask> formed a penetrative partnership with fellow West Australian Terry Alderman, who claimed an Australian record of 41 wickets. Despite possessing this potent attack, Australia lost the series by 1–3 when Ian Botham turned in a series of brilliant individual performances.Yet, these efforts led him to achieve the number 1 ranking in ICC Test Bowling Rankings for the year 1981. Granted a testimonial for 1981–82, <mask>'s season got off to a poor start when he was involved in the infamous incident with Javed Miandad (see below) in the first Test of the summer. Suspended for two ODIs, the level of his on-field aggression was again criticised. However, he continued taking wickets: 15 in three Tests against Pakistan and 16 in three Tests against the West Indies. Against the latter, his 7/83 and 3/44 at the MCG in the first Test took him past the world record for the most Test wickets held by Lance Gibbs. His ODI season was less successful, with 12 wickets in 12 games. His best effort was 2/18 in ten overs against the West Indies during the third final of the World Series Cup, the only match in the final series Australia was able to win.Retirement
Bowling as a first-change, <mask> had an uneventful tour of New Zealand in March and April 1982 before suffering a serious knee injury in the first Ashes Test at the WACA Ground in November of the same year. This forced him to miss the rest of the series and Australia's 2–1 victory, which reclaimed the Ashes. Returning to the team for the latter stages of the World Series Cup, <mask> was no longer an automatic choice to take the new ball. Nevertheless, his 11 wickets in six ODIs helped Australia win the tournament with a victory over New Zealand in the final. His wicket-taking capacity was diminishing. During Australia's brief tour of Sri Lanka in 1983, <mask> took three wickets at Kandy in the inaugural Test between the two nations and went wicket-less in two ODIs. Later in the year, his ODI career finished during the third World Cup in England when he conceded 52 runs from 12 overs in the match against the West Indies at Lord's.Dropped from the team, <mask> acknowledged that he was not fully fit. During the first two Tests of 1983–84 against Pakistan at Perth, he took only one wicket and looked set to be dropped from the Test team as well. Fate intervened when Carl Rackemann, the man of the match from the second Test, was injured. This allowed <mask> to play the rest of the Test series and he finished with 20 wickets at 31.65. Along with Greg Chappell he announced his retirement during the final Test at Sydney, and took eight wickets, including a wicket with his last delivery in the match. Caught Marsh bowled Lillee

Throughout his career, whilst playing for both Australia and Western Australia, <mask> was also famous for his partnership with wicket-keeper Rod Marsh. The scorecard entry 'c Marsh b Lillee' appeared 95 times in Tests, a partnership record between wicket-keeper and bowler that is yet to be broken.Coincidentally, both players ended their careers with 355 Test dismissals; Marsh took 343 catches and had 12 stumpings. In 1988 the Western Australian Cricket Association honoured the two players by naming a new grandstand at the WACA Ground the Lillee-Marsh Stand. Statistics correct at 26 February 2015. Source:

Controversy

Aluminium bat incident

During a Test at the WACA Ground in December 1979 between Australia and England, Lillee went to the crease with an aluminium bat manufactured by a company owned by a friend. There were no rules against using such a bat, but trouble began when Lillee hit a ball that went for three runs. Australian captain Greg Chappell thought that the ball should have gone for a four, and instructed Rodney Hogg to deliver a conventional wooden bat to Lillee. As this was happening, English captain Mike Brearley complained to the umpires that using such a bat was against the spirit of the game and that it was damaging the ball.Lillee refused to change the bat. Brearley, <mask>, and the umpires held an animated discussion for almost ten minutes, before Chappell insisted that Lillee should change bats. In a fit of pique, Lillee threw "the offending lump of metal fully 40 yards towards the pavilion", and grudgingly took the wooden bat. He was not disciplined by the ACB for this incident. After the game, sales of the bat skyrocketed for a few months, before the laws of the game were amended, specifying that bats had to be made from wood. Betting
At Headingley on the 1981 tour of England, Australia was in such a strong position at one stage of the third Test that bookmakers at the ground were offering odds of 500–1 against an England victory. These odds were flashed on the scoreboard during a break in the game and noticed by the Australian players.<mask> and Rod Marsh believed that the odds were so ludicrous that, via a third party, they each put a small wager on the outcome, later describing their actions as a "joke". Between them, they collected 7,500 pounds when England pulled off a comeback victory. Both men openly discussed the incident and received no official censure or sanction, although some criticised their actions. There has never been a suggestion that the bets compromised their efforts in the game. However, the issue has been re-examined in modern times following the match-fixing scandals that have plagued international cricket since the mid-1990s. After retirement
<mask> made a brief comeback to first-class cricket in 1987–88 for Tasmania, taking a wicket with his first ball. In 1988, he played eight matches for English county team Northamptonshire before suffering a severe ankle injury.In his autobiography, <mask> claimed that he played again as a preparation for a possible comeback to the Australian team that was suggested by the then captain Allan Border. Since retirement Lillee has dedicated himself to mentoring and coaching young bowlers, most notably Brett Lee, Shaun Tait, and Mitchell Johnson. He was also associated with MRF Pace Foundation in India. Lillee continued playing cricket until 1999 for the traditional AUstralian Cricket Board President's XI match against touring sides at Lilac Hill. In his final match he took three wickets and played alongside his son Adam. From 2004 until his sudden resignation in September 2015, <mask> was the president of the Western Australian Cricket Association. Legacy

He was one of the Wisden Cricketers of the Year in 1973.He was appointed a Member of the Order of the British Empire (MBE) in 1981. He was one of the ten inaugural inductees into the Australian Cricket Hall of Fame in 1996. He was selected in the official Australian Test Team of the Century. He was awarded the Australian Sports Medal in 2000. He was appointed a Member of the Order of Australia (AM) in the Australia Day Honours of 2010. <mask> was inducted into the Sport Australia Hall of Fame in 1985. He was immortalized in the Men at Work song "No Restrictions" (Cargo, 1983) with the line: "Hear the cricket calling, switch on the TV, sit and stare for hours, and cheer <mask>e".He was also mentioned in the Iain Campbell Smith song "Blue Guitar". In a lyric where the narrator is describing unlikely, fantastic events he sings "I hit a six off <mask> and I clean bowled Gavaskar". When performing in the United States, Smith will often change the lyric to "I scored thirty-seven points off of Kareem Abdul-Jabbar." He was named as a bowler in Australia's "greatest ever ODI team." He was named an Australia Post Legend of Cricket in 2021. He was elevated as the 43rd Legend in the Sport Australia Hall of Fame in 2021. Footnotes

<mask> (1822 – November 22, 1871) was one of three Black men who served as a Lieutenant Governor of Louisiana during the era of Reconstruction and the first Black man to serve as acting governor of a U.S. state. He was a Republican. In 1868, <mask> became the first elected black lieutenant governor of a U.S. state. He ran on the ticket headed by Henry Clay Warmoth, formerly of Illinois. In 1871, he became the first black acting governor of a U.S. state after Governor Warmoth injured his foot and left Louisiana to recuperate on two occasions. Article 53 of the Louisiana Constitution of 1868 required the lieutenant governor to serve as acting governor "in case of impeachment of the Governor, his removal from office, death . . . resignation or absence from the state."<mask> served as acting governor of Louisiana for a total of 39 days. <mask> died in office, and the state legislature elected state Senator P. B. S. Pinchback, another black Republican, to replace him as lieutenant governor. A year later, Pinchback became acting governor for his own 34-day interim stint. Early life

In approximately 1822, <mask> was born into slavery in New Orleans. His mother <mask> was enslaved under the law of the time he received her status and was also enslaved. His father, <mask>, had been freed in 1819 by his owner. <mask> was born into slavery in Petersburg, Virginia and had been transported to the Deep South during the forced migration of more than one million African Americans from the Upper South.He was bought by James H. Caldwell of New Orleans, who founded the St. Charles Theatre and New Orleans Gas Light Company. <mask> worked for Caldwell as a skilled carpenter for decades, including after his emancipation by Caldwell in 1819. After being emancipated, <mask> married Maria, then enslaved, and they had two children, <mask> and Jane. Slave marriages were not recognized under the law. By 1832, <mask> had earned enough money as a carpenter to purchase the freedom of his wife and both children. Their status as free Blacks was gained decades before the American Civil War. As English speakers, they were not, however, part of the culture of free people of color in Louisiana, who were primarily of French descent, Catholic religion and culture.<mask> continued to work as a carpenter for his former master Caldwell. His wife, <mask>, ran a boarding house for actors and actresses who were in the city to perform at the Caldwell theatres. Together, they were able to pay for education for their children. Having studied music, <mask> became both an accomplished musician and an instructor of the violin. <mask> was apprenticed as a young man to a plastering and painting contractor, A. G. Wilson. Wilson verified <mask>'s free status in the Mayor's Register of Free People of Color 1840–1864. On November 23, 1841, the contractor reported <mask> as a runaway in a newspaper ad in the New Orleans Times-Picayune.<mask> must have gone back to work because he progressed in the world. <mask> was an English-speaking free black in a city in which the racial caste system was the underpinning of daily life. Ethnic French, including many free people of color, believed their culture was more subtle and flexible than that brought by the English-speaking residents, who came to the city in the early-to-mid-19th century after the Louisiana Purchase and began to dominate it in number. Free people of color had been established as a separate class of merchants, artisans, and property owners, many of whom had educations. However, American migrants from the South dismissed their special status, classifying society in binary terms, as black or white, despite a long history of interracial relations in their own history. Freemasonry
<mask> joined Prince Hall Richmond Lodge #4, one of a number of fraternal organizations that expanded to New Orleans, out of the Prince Hall Ohio Lodge during the 19th century. In the latter 1850s, he rose to Master and Grand Master of the Eureka Grand Lodge which became the Louisiana Grand Lodge [Prince Hall/York Rite].Author and historian, Joseph A. Walkes Jr., a Prince Hall Freemason, credits <mask> with outstanding conduct of Masonic affairs in Louisiana. As a Freemason, <mask> developed his leadership skills, and established a wide network and power base in the Black community that was essential for his later political career. Marriage and family
In December 1866, <mask> married Ellen Boyd Marchand, a widow born free in Ohio. She was the daughter of Henry Boyd and his wife of Ohio. He adopted her three children, Fannie (9), Charles (7) and Emma (5). The couple had no children together. In 1870, the <mask> family residence was  on Canal Street, one block west of South Claiborne Avenue and within walking distance of Straight University and the St. James A.M.E. Church complex, where they were members.Reconstruction era and politics

<mask> worked to achieve equality for the millions of blacks freed by passage of the Thirteenth Amendment, ratified after the American Civil War. He actively promoted and supported the Universal Suffrage Movement, advocated land ownership for all blacks, taxpayer-funded education of all black children, and equal protection of the laws under the Fourteenth Amendment. He joined the Republican Party, many of whose members supported suffrage for blacks. <mask> opened an employment agency that assisted in finding jobs for the freedmen. He was appointed as Secretary of the Advisory Committee of the Freedmen's Savings and Trust Company of New Orleans, established by the Freedmen's Bureau. As the city and region struggled to convert to a free labor system, <mask> worked to ensure that recently freed slaves were treated fairly by former planters, who insisted on hiring by year-long contracts. In 1866, he organized the People's Bakery, an enterprise owned and operated by the Louisiana Association of Workingmen.Elected to the New Orleans city council in 1867, <mask> was named chairman of a committee to review Article 5 of the City Charter. He proposed that "all children between the ages of 6–18 be eligible to attend public schools and that the Board of Aldermen shall provide for the education of all children ... without distinction to color." In the state Constitutional Convention of 1867–1868, the resolution was enacted into Louisiana law and laid the foundation for the public education system, established for the first time in the state by the biracial legislature. <mask> was very active in local, state and federal politics, with connections to U.S. President Ulysses S. Grant and U.S. Senator Charles Sumner of Massachusetts. Long before President Theodore Roosevelt invited Booker T. Washington, President Ulysses S. Grant met him at the White House on April 2, 1869. Running for lieutenant governor, he beat a white candidate for the nomination, W. Jasper Blackburn, the former mayor of Minden in Webster Parish, by a vote of fifty-four to twenty-seven.The Warmoth-<mask> Republican ticket was elected, 64,941 to 38,046. That was considered the rise of the Radical Republican influence in state politics. <mask> was inaugurated lieutenant governor on June 13, 1868. He was also the President pro tempore of the Louisiana State Senate. He was a member of the Printing Committee of the legislature, which controlled a million-dollar budget. He also served as President of the Metropolitan Police with an annual budget of nearly one million dollars. It struggled to maintain peace in a volatile political atmosphere, especially after the New Orleans Riot of 1866.In 1870, <mask> served on the board of trustees and Examining Committee for Straight University, a historically black college founded in the city. The Republicans developed severe internal conflicts. Although elected with Warmoth, as the governor worked toward Fusionist goals, <mask> became allied with the Custom House faction, which was led by Stephen B. Packard and tied in with federal patronage jobs. They had differences with the Warmoth-Pinchback faction, and challenged it for leadership of the party. Warmoth had been criticized for appointing white Democrats to state positions, encouraging alliances with Democrats, and his failure to advance civil rights for blacks. William Pitt Kellogg, whom Warmoth had helped gain election as US Senator in 1868, also allied with Packard and was later elected as governor of the state. Because of <mask>'s wide connections and influence in the city, his defection to the Custom House faction meant that he would take many Republican ward clubs with him in switching allegiance, especially those made up of African Americans rather than Afro-Creoles (the mixed race elite that had been established as free before the war).For the Radical Republicans, the city was always more important to their political power than were the rural parishes. <mask> made numerous political enemies during this period. According to The New York Times, <mask> "had difficulties with Harry Lott", a Rapides Parish member of the Louisiana House of Representatives (1868–1870, 1870–1872). He also had differences with his eventual successor as lieutenant governor, State Senator P.B.S. Pinchback over policy, leadership, and direction. Death
On November 22, 1871, <mask> died at 49 at home after a brief and sudden illness. He had been campaigning for the upcoming state and presidential elections.There was speculation that he was poisoned by political enemies, but no evidence was found. According to Nick Weldon at the Historic New Orleans Collection, <mask>'s symptoms were consistent with arsenic poisoning—vomiting, shivering. Only four out of seven doctors who examined <mask> signed off on the official cause of death, suspecting murder. No confirmation was made because <mask>'s family had refused an autopsy. The <mask> funeral was reported as one of the largest in New Orleans. As many as 50,000 people lined Canal Street for the procession, and newspapers across the nation reported the event. State officials, Masonic lodges, and civic and social organizations participated in the procession from the St. James A.M.E. church to his grave site.He was interred in the Cassanave family mausoleum at St. Louis Cemetery No. 2. Honors
W.E.B. Du Bois, leading civil rights activist, later called <mask> "an unselfish, incorruptible leader." The New Orleans Times-Picayune published a poem the day after <mask>'s death in his honor, entitled The Death Struggle:

Survivors
After his death, his widow, Ellen, was appointed by the mayor of New Orleans to the position of municipal archives director. Several years later, on November 23, 1875, she married J. Henri Burch. A former state senator from East Baton Rouge Parish, Burch had been an ally of her late husband, as part of the Customhouse faction.The Burch family resided in New Orleans and continued there after the withdrawal of federal troops and the end of Reconstruction, in 1877.

In the final the team initially appeared to have come agonizingly close to a medal, having placed 0.02 seconds behind the third-place United States team, and setting the national record. However, the American team was then disqualified for an improper baton pass, handing the bronze to Canada and <mask>. He ran together with anchor De Grasse, Brendon Rodney, Akeem Haynes, and Mobolade Ajomale who only ran in the heats. Commonwealth silver and Tokyo Olympics
In the year following the success in Rio de Janeiro, <mask> struggled, despite a promising gold medal win for Canada's 4x200 m relay team at the 2017 World Relay Championships.After a false start at the 100 m final of the 2017 Canadian Championships, he was disqualified and thus only sent to race the 200 m at the 2017 World Championships in Athletics. Upon arrival in London for the championship, he was one of many athletes there to contract norovirus. He recorded the fastest time in his heat, but was disqualified as a result of a lane violation. He also competed in the 4x100 metres relay. Missing their anchor Andre De Grasse, the Canadian relay team ultimately placed sixth in the finals. Following these disappointments, <mask> dedicated his 2018 season to focusing on the 2018 Commonwealth Games, to be held in Gold Coast. Named to Canada's team for the Games, specifically to compete in the 200 m, <mask> initially placed third in the event final with a time of 20.34.However, second-place finisher Zharnel Hughes was then disqualified for jostling eventual gold medalist Jereem Richards, resulting in <mask> winning the silver medal.

He went on to enjoy success on the 2018 Diamond League, running the 200 mm in a sub-20 second time (19.98) for the first time at the Bislett Games in Oslo. He won the Golden Spike Ostrava over reigning World champion Ramil Guliyev. Despite being defending gold medalists in the 4x200 at the 2019 World Relay Championships, the <mask> and the Canadian relay team failed to advance out of the heats in the 4x100 m relay, attributed in part to an awkward baton exchange from Gavin Smellie to <mask>. Competing on the 2019 Diamond League, he won back-to-back gold medals in the 200 m at the Diamond League Shanghai and the BAUHAUS-galan in Stockholm. He ran a new personal best time of 19.95 in the 200 m at the Athletissima in Switzerland, and went on to win both the 100 and 200 m events at the Canadian Championships.Competing at the 2019 World Athletics Championships in Doha, <mask> qualified for the finals of both the 100 and 200 m, finishing eighth and sixth. In a disappointing finish, the Canadian relay team did not advance to the 4x100 m final despite having the eighth-fastest overall time due to their running in the faster of the two heats. The COVID-19 pandemic resulted in the cancellation of much of the international athletic season in 2020, and the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo being delayed by a full year. <mask> opted not to contest the 100 m in Tokyo, instead aiming to maximize his chances in the 200 m. He placed first in his heat, and then won his semi-final with a season's best time of 19.99, advancing to his first individual Olympic final. He placed sixth in the final with a time of 20.20. <mask> raced with a photo of his family under his bib, remarking afterward "I run for Canada. I run for my fans.But most importantly I run for my wife and son." <mask>, Jerome Blake, Brendon Rodney and Andre De Grasse then went on to the 4x100 m relay, where they won a second consecutive bronze medal. On 18 February 2022, Great Britain was stripped of its silver medal in the men's 4×100 m relay after the Court of Arbitration for Sport confirmed CJ Ujah’s doping violation.

<mask> (Latinized version of the Dutch name Gijsbert Voet ; 3 March 1589 – 1 November 1676) was a Dutch Calvinist theologian. Life
He was born at Heusden, in the Dutch Republic, studied at Leiden, and in 1611 became Protestant pastor of Vlijmen, whence in 1617 he returned to Heusden. In 1619, he played an influential part in the Synod of Dort, at which he was the youngest delegate. In 1634, <mask> was made professor of theology and Oriental science at the University of Utrecht. Three years later he became pastor of the Utrecht congregation. He was an advocate of a strong form of Calvinism (Gomarism) against the Arminians. The city of Utrecht perpetuated his memory by giving his name to the street in which he had lived.Utrecht controversy with Descartes
In March 1642, while serving as rector of the University of Utrecht, <mask> persuaded the university's academic senate to issue a formal condemnation of the Cartesian philosophy and its local defender, Henricus Regius. According to the senate's statement, Cartesian philosophy was to be suppressed because:
 it was opposed to 'traditional' (i.e. Scholastic/Aristotelian) philosophy;
 young people taught Cartesian philosophy would be unable to understand the technical terminology of Scholasticism; and
 it had consequences contrary to orthodox theology. Descartes countered with a personal attack on <mask>, in a letter to Jacques Dinet, which he made public in the second edition (1642) of his Meditations. Voetius was provoked into getting Martin Schoock to produce a book-length assault on Descartes and his work, the Admiranda methodus (1643). Descartes associated the quarrel with the part <mask> was playing with another controversy with Samuel Maresius, who was at least sympathetic to some Cartesian ideas. Legal and diplomatic moves followed (the protagonists were in different provinces in the Netherlands); and Maresius at the University of Groningen was able to extract some admissions from Schoock that were quite damaging to <mask>.In his long letter to <mask> (Epistola ad Voetium), Descartes mentioned Aristotelianism only twice;  by contrast, the topics of theology, faith, and atheism were put on the table hundreds of times. Both Descartes and <mask> acknowledged that the issue they treated was most of all theological. <mask> pursued the faith-seeking-understanding program whereas Descartes repudiated the faith-lacking-understanding project. The primary concern of <mask> was not to preserve Aristotelianism but to keep the biblical truth that, as he put it, was received from orthodox tradition. Descartes insisted that the article of faith did not fall under the regime of human reason because faith was something one could not fully grasp with reason. He argued that whoever embraced the articles of faith for incorrect reasoning would commit a sin no less grave than those who rejected them. What Descartes desperately defended was the autonomy of human reason and its proper use.In his philosophical enterprise, faith seemed to hinder the autonomy and the use of reason. He believed that his method of doubt would provide a firm road to perfect knowledge. Voetius, however, argued that human reason was surrounded by error and sin, so that perfect knowledge was impossible for humans. He maintained that human beings would be able to learn the truth from divine revelation, which was the only principle in the pursuit of truth. Therefore, for Voetius, Cartesianism was primarily confronted with scriptural truth, not with Aristotelianism. References

<mask> (born 6 March 1969) is a Scottish politician who was a Member of the Scottish Parliament (MSP) for Lothian from 2011 to 2021. A member of Scottish Labour, he was previously a councillor in West Lothian from 2003 to 2012. Early life and career
<mask> was born in 1969 in Bangour General Hospital, near Broxburn. He was raised in Blackburn, West Lothian and educated at the co-educational, Roman Catholic St Kentigern's Academy. After leaving school in 1986, he became an apprentice bricklayer in his father's business, and spent ten years working there. During this time, he also studied at the University of Strathclyde, gaining a Bachelor of Arts in Geography and Politics, and going on to become a housing officer in 1996. After working for Almond Housing Association in Livingston for seven years, <mask> completed a PGCE at the University of Glasgow in 2003 and became a teacher in Falkirk for the next eight years.<mask> describes himself as a socialist and trade unionist, and is on the left of the Labour Party, he's also has a committed Anti-Trident stance and is a member of the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament and has been heavily critical in the past of his own party's position on Nuclear Weapons. Political career
In 2003, <mask> was elected onto West Lothian Council as a Scottish Labour councillor for the Fauldhouse and Breich Valley ward. He was re-elected in 2007 and stood down in 2012. In 2011, <mask> was elected to the Scottish Parliament as one of seven additional members for Lothian list. In 2012, he was appointed Shadow Minister for Skills and Learning. Leader Johann Lamont appointed him to the frontbench as Shadow Cabinet Secretary for Health and Wellbeing on 29 May 2013. He has also been a member of the Scottish Parliament's Performance Committee, Local Area Committee and the Services for the Community Policy Development and Scrutiny Panel.Ahead of the Scottish Independence Referendum in 2014, <mask> campaigned for a No vote, advocating a "devomax" position, however unlike many of his colleagues within the Scottish Labour Party, he did not join the official Better Together movement and was a strong critic of his party's involvement due to it being a collaboration with the Conservatives. Instead, <mask> was part of the Red Paper Collective along with other members of the Scottish Labour Left and the Communist Party of Great Britain who aimed to promote a left-wing, socialist vision for voting No on 18 September 2014. On 29 October 2014, <mask> declared he would stand in the upcoming Scottish Labour leadership election. Initially, he wanted Gordon Brown to stand but Brown ruled himself out. Calling for a "clear red water" between Labour and the Scottish National Party, <mask> proposed raising the minimum wage, reintroducing council house building, reducing private sector use in the NHS and allowing councils to set taxes to help reverse job losses within their areas. The trade unions ASLEF, CWU, GMB, Musicians' Union, NUM, RMT, TSSA, UCATT, UNISON and Unite supported his candidature. He came second to Jim Murphy with 34.99% of the vote.In the aftermath of his leadership bid, <mask> was appointed Shadow Cabinet Secretary for Fair Work, Skills and Training on 16 December 2014 by Murphy and remained in the post until being reshuffled out by Murphy's successor, Kezia Dugdale in August 2015. <mask> was the Scottish campaign chief for Jeremy Corbyn during the 2015 Labour leadership election, and is the convener of Scottish Labour's Campaign for Socialism, succeeding Elaine Smith. From 2016 until 2017, he served as convener of the Scottish Parliament's Health and Sport Committee. In 2017, he published his book Socialism and Hope: A journey through turbulent times, co-authored with biographer and journalist Jeff Holmes. <mask> was appointed Scottish Labour's Brexit spokesperson by new leader Richard Leonard on 19 November 2017, and then also as Parliamentary Business Manager on 4 October 2018. In early May 2019, Edinburgh South MP Ian Murray accused him of "bullying and harassment" in a complaint to Scottish Labour's General Secretary Brian Roy. In turn, <mask> issued a counter-complaint over "derogatory" WhatsApp messages in which Murray accused the leadership of being "full of thugs and incompetents".On 28 May 2019, the day after it was confirmed Scottish Labour had finished fifth in Scotland in the European election and lost both its MEPs, <mask> resigned as Brexit spokesperson and Business Manager. He also intimated he would leave the Scottish Parliament after the 2021 election. He indicated he had made this decision in March after months of thought and denied he was resigning due to the election result. He was however critical of "eternal internal fighting within our party and the toxic culture of leaks and briefings that come from some within the Scottish and UK parliamentary groups". Following his resignation, he argued Scottish Labour needed to adopt a "clear and easily understood position on the constitution", having previously argued in favour of a federal United Kingdom. On 6 September 2019, a consultation launched by <mask> in the January reported there was overwhelming public support for his proposals for a bill to ban MSPs having second jobs, with some exceptions described as "common sense". In the October, former Scottish Conservative leader Ruth Davidson announced she was accepting a public relations role for lobbying firm Tulchan Communications while retaining her job as an MSP and <mask> used her appointment as further justification for his bill, arguing the rules which allowed her to do so were "not fit for purpose".Along with Monica Lennon, <mask> abstained on an SNP government bill in favour of a second Scottish independence referendum. This was against their party's whip, which was to vote against the bill. <mask> mocked Richard Leonard's critics in a September 2020 leaked email: "I support Richard 100% - the usual suspects think we just need to wind back to 1997 and then wave a union flag with gusto with [MP] Ian Murray and [deputy leader] Jackie Baillie leading and all will be well - delusion doesn’t come close to it." He also described the Leonard's critics in Labour's Scottish Parliament group in the Morning Star as “a kamikaze squad ... determined to destroy what remains of the party”. <mask> nominated Monica Lennon in the 2021 Scottish Labour leadership election. Personal life
<mask> is married to Fiona Miller, with whom he has one daughter, Chloe. He is a member of the trade unions Unite and Educational Institute of Scotland.References

According to The New York Times,"It's not just another episode of the learned cosmopolitan descending from the ivory tower to produce anthropological discourses on that strange creature known as the Trump voter and make it back to the big city in time for a martini. Though she is Democratic royalty, Ms. <mask> has spent much of her career dissecting, with compassion, the psyche of the political right in America." In January 2019, <mask> debuted "Goodbye Congress" on HBO's Vice News Tonight - the film that features exit interviews with 14 retiring members of Congress, including Speaker Paul Ryan and 7 other Republicans who explain how Washington works.

<mask>, 7th Earl of Westmeath PC (18 November 1760 – 30 December 1814), styled Lord Delvin until 1792, was an Irish peer. He gained notoriety in his  own lifetime due to his unhappy first marriage to Maryanne Jeffries, which ended in  divorce, following  a much-publicised  legal action  by the husband for criminal conversation. Background and early career
Nugent was the only surviving son of Thomas Nugent, 6th Earl of Westmeath, by his second wife Catherine White, daughter of Henry White of Pitchfordstown, County Kildare. He sat in the Irish House of Commons as member for Fore from 1780 until 1792, when he succeeded his father in the earldom. He became a member of the Irish Privy Council the following year, and held the offices of Custos Rotulorum for Westmeath and Auditor of Foreign Accounts. He was a Colonel  in the Westmeath Militia. In 1796 he was involved in suppressing a  threatened rebellion,  a prelude to the Irish rebellion of 1798.Marriage
As a young man he was described as "gay, social and convivial". At the age of 24 he married Maryanne Jeffries (or Jeffreyes), who was about a year older. She was the daughter of Major James St John Jeffereyes of Blarney Castle and Arabella Fitzgibbon, daughter of John FitzGibbon and  sister of John Fitzgibbon, 1st Earl of Clare. She was described as a young woman of "great beauty, education and high accomplishments"
and was also wealthy. It was generally regarded as a love marriage, and according to the evidence at the criminal conversation action  the  early years of the marriage  were  very happy. After about six years they  parted, he living in Ireland, she in London. At an unknown date Maryanne became the lover of  Augustus Cavendish-Bradshaw, younger son of Sir Henry Cavendish, 2nd Baronet,  and brother of  Richard Cavendish, 2nd Baron Waterpark.There is no reason to doubt the claim made by Lord <mask>'s counsel at the trial that he hesitated for a long time before deciding to end the marriage: divorce then invariably caused scandal, and  the process was slow and expensive, requiring a Private Act of Parliament. Also,  a cuckolded husband was traditionally a figure of fun, and his wife's infidelity did expose Westmeath to a good deal of ridicule, both among his  neighbours and in the press. Even while exercising  his official duties as a Colonel  of Militia, when he accidentally entered the bedroom of a married woman, he was told pointedly that she (unlike some) was a virtuous wife. Although he was a rich man, financial motives may partly explain his decision to sue for criminal conversation, as he sought  the (then) very large sum of £20,000 (on the  other  hand Cavendish-Bradshaw was notoriously short  of  money). In any case a successful verdict in   such a suit  was  then a necessary first step towards divorce,  and he did ultimately decide on dissolution of the marriage. Civil action
The case  opened on 20 February 1796, before Barry Yelverton, the Chief Baron of the Irish Exchequer. Each side had an impressive legal team: John Toler, the Solicitor General for Ireland and William Saurin, the future Attorney General for Ireland acting for  the plaintiff faced John Philpot Curran  acting for the defendant.The trial aroused enormous public interest and the courtroom was packed, while it also received a great deal of  publicity  in the press. Five witnesses, all servants of the Westmeaths, testified to actions which amounted to strong if circumstantial evidence of adultery (it was not the practice then in a divorce suit  for the husband, wife or alleged lover  to give evidence). Curran's cross-examination is said to have afforded great entertainment to the public, but  he did not seriously damage the witnesses' credit. His speech to the jury was praised for its eloquence, although he came close to  admitting  that adultery had been  proved. On that basis he attacked the character of both husband and wife, describing Lady Westmeath as an experienced woman of the world who had seduced a much younger man. Lord Westmeath he described as a pleasure-loving and neglectful husband. As  he quite  fairly pointed out the picture of a happy marriage destroyed by the intrigues of  Bradshaw did not explain the awkward fact  that the couple had led separate lives for years before Bradshaw  arrived on the scene.Curran's eloquence had little effect: Yelverton  in his summing up described the evidence as overwhelming and suggested that the damages should be very large. The jury found for the plaintiff and awarded  him  £10,000. Whether he actually recovered the damages is unclear, as Bradshaw was a  poor man all his life, who spent years lobbying each Government in turn for any lucrative office which might be vacant, and was invariably refused. Aftermath
The Westmeaths were divorced by a private Act of Parliament later that year, and in November Maryanne and Bradshaw married. She long outlived both her  husbands, dying in 1849, aged about 90. Bradshaw died in 1832,  in relative poverty. In 1797 Westmeath remarried Lady Elizabeth Moore, daughter of Charles Moore, 1st Marquess of Drogheda and Lady Anne Seymour-Conway.He supported the Act of Union 1800 and became an Irish Representative Peer. He died on 30 December 1814. Family
While the trial records  refer to several children of the first marriage, we know definitely  of only one son,  <mask>, 1st Marquess of Westmeath; the others presumably died young. There were five children of the second marriage, Robert, Thomas, Elizabeth, Catherine and Mary. The younger <mask>'s  marital career was no happier than his parents' had been: two of his three marriages ended in divorce. His first wife,  Lady Emily Cecil,  recalled indignantly that her mother-in-law  Maryanne had suggested that she have an  affair with the Duke of Wellington, to help her husband's career, which suggests that Maryanne had no regrets about her own infidelity to <mask>'s father.

<mask> (; born 9 May 1970) is a Chinese former international footballer. He currently holds the record for being China's top goalscorer. As a player he represented Bayi Football Team, Dalian Shide and Sheffield United in a career that saw him win six league titles and two Chinese FA Cup. Along with a Chinese Football Association Player of the Year award and three Chinese Jia-A League Top goalscorer awards. Since retiring he had a brief spell at management with Dalian Shide and was the General manager at Hunan Shoking before being Chairman of Tianjin Songjiang, which he left in 2012. Hao married former badminton champion Ye Zhaoying in summer 2019. Club career

Bayi Football Team
<mask> would make a name for himself by rising through the ranks with Bayi Football Team.On 31 July 1994, <mask> was involved in an on-the-pitch brawl with Craig Allardyce, son of former English manager Sam Allardyce, in Bayi's league match with Guangdong Winnerway. This resulted in <mask> and Allardyce receiving a half-year ban by the Chinese Football Association and thus <mask> was not allowed to play for the Chinese national team in the 1994 Asian Games. While his personal performances with Bayi remained impressive, the team were not genuine title contenders anymore due to the club's struggles with professionalism and a requirement that all their players remain active People's Liberation Army members. With a significantly improved salary and a chance to win more silverware he would transfer to reigning league champions Dalian Shide at the beginning of the 1997 league season for a club record fee of 2,200,000 yuan at the time. Dalian Shide
His move to Dalian Shide would be a huge success and he would win the league title and Chinese FA Super Cup as well as also personally winning the Golden Boot and Golden Ball award in the 1997 season. The following season, <mask> would continue to add to his medal collection with another league title and more personal awards while barely losing the Asian Club Championship as well. While <mask> would be applauded for his football achievements and was even starting to be known as the "Chinese Alan Shearer", he would also show a darker aspect of his game after being fined for attacking a player on 15 March 1998 and was suspended for two games.This would also be followed by a year suspension by the Asian Football Confederation for spitting at a referee during the Asian Cup Winners' Cup. Due to the suspension, Hao would miss out on much of the 1999 league season, however this wouldn't hinder him at all and his prolific goalscoring would continue to see him win several more league titles, the Chinese FA Cup and the Asian Cup Winners' Cup runners-up medal. His stature within Dalian Shide would be so high that when then manager Milorad Kosanović left the club, Hao was immediately brought in as a caretaker to manage the team during the absence of a full-time manager. Sheffield United
In January 2005, Hao was nearing the end of his career and received the chance to play abroad as English Championship side Sheffield United were increasingly interested in gaining access to a potentially lucrative footballing market and saw Hao as a symbolic first step in achieving this. Dalian Shide would release him as a gesture of goodwill following his record of good service towards the club and Sheffield United decided to make the transfer symbolic when Hao joined them for a record low transfer fee at the time by signing for £1 in 2005. In January 2005, <mask> joined Sheffield United where he suffered from injuries and worked mainly as a coach in Sheffield's academy. His only appearance came as a substitute in the 2005–06 FA Cup on 7 January 2006 in a 2–1 loss against Colchester United.With no further opportunities, <mask> retired and returned to China. International career
<mask> enjoyed a stellar international career by playing at the 2002 FIFA World Cup and is the record top goalscorer with 41 goals for the Chinese national team. Although China never made progress into Asia’s final qualifying round 2006 (finished behind Kuwait), Hao led his country in a bid to reach Germany. Hao is considered to be the best striker from China in the past two decades. Personal life
By his ex-wife Chen Yi Hao has a son, Runze <mask> (), who is also a professional football player, and a daughter named <mask> Runhan (郝润涵). Hao married former badminton champion Ye Zhaoying in summer 2019. Now Hao family lives in Spain.Political views

On 4 June 2020, on the 31st anniversary of the 1989 Tiananmen Square protests, <mask> and Ye Zhaoying publicly denounced the Chinese Communist Party, including for its mishandling of professional sports, Tibet, Hong Kong, and the COVID-19 pandemic. "Football in China is a reflection of the country ... it's not the players that make it worse, it's the bureaucrats that damage the whole business by ignoring the rules", they said. They advocated the formation of a "New Federal State of China", a proposal supported by Chinese dissident Miles Kwok and American political strategist Steve Bannon. In response, the Chinese Communist Party first issued statements harshly criticizing <mask> and Ye, and then altered course to expunge all references to them from the Chinese-accessible internet—the Weibo accounts of <mask> and Ye were deleted, and their online profiles on major portals in China – Sina Sports and Tencent Sport – were expunged. Six days later, in an interview with The Wall Street Journal, <mask> and Ye reiterated their criticism of one-party rule in China and restated their willingness to advocate for human rights despite potential political and personal costs: "There are many people who think the same way as we do but they don't dare to speak up inside the country -- and they are becoming less and less willing to speak."
