He was capped once at England B level. Following retirement in 2008 through a knee injury, <mask> then worked as a coach for Everton, and started his management career with Hibernian in 2014. He led Hibernian to a Scottish Cup victory in 2016, then had a brief tenure at Rotherham United. After working as a pundit for BT Sport, he was manager at St Mirren for 3 months in 2018. Club career

Bolton Wanderers
Born in Kirkby, Merseyside, <mask> started his career at Bolton Wanderers, turning professional in 1990 when they were members of the Football League Third Division.He played 23 league games that season but it was a disappointing first season at Burnden Park for Stubbs as his side missed out on automatic promotion on goal difference and were beaten by Tranmere Rovers in the playoff final. He remained a regular player in 1991–92 but this campaign brought further frustration as Bolton finished 13th in the Third Division and manager Phil Neal was dismissed to make way for Bruce Rioch. Stubbs remained part of Rioch's plans as Bolton began 1992–93 in the new Division Two (following the creation of the FA Premier League and the renumbering of the three remaining Football League divisions) and scored twice in 42 league appearances as they sealed promotion as runners-up. He became club captain soon afterwards and in 1994–95 led them through their best season in years where they reached Wembley twice. The first visit to Wembley came in March, where they reached the Football League Cup final for the first time in their history, only to lose 2–1 to Liverpool. The return to Wembley for the Division One playoff final two months later was a happier occasion for Stubbs and his colleagues, though for 75 minutes it looked as though it would be another disappointment as Bolton trailed 2–0 to Reading in the contest for a place in the Premier League. But a remarkable turnaround saw them drawing 2–2 after 90 minutes to force extra time, and they went on to win 4–3 and return to the top flight for the first time since 1980.Before the start of the season, Bolton manager Bruce Rioch departed to Arsenal and attempted to bring Stubbs with him, but this was unsuccessful. Stubbs remained with Bolton throughout their 1995–96 campaign, their first in the top flight for 16 years, which was mostly spent in the bottom two places of the table and ended with them being relegated in bottom place. Celtic
He joined Celtic on 10 July 1996 for £4 million, a record signing for Celtic and at the time the second biggest sale for Bolton. The deal became subject of scrutiny from FIFA, who initially fined Celtic £41,000 and Stubbs £28,000 for the use of unlicensed agents during the transfer. These fines were later reduced to £22,000 and £18,000 respectively on appeal. His first season at Celtic, 1996–97, saw him play regularly but Stubbs did little to justify his expensive transfer fee as Rangers clinched their ninth successive Scottish League championship. The following season (1997–98 season) saw a new manager, Wim Jansen, in charge at Celtic and a new partner in central defence alongside <mask>, Danish international Marc Rieper.Both these factors saw an upturn in <mask>' fortunes at Celtic, and his pairing with Rieper in defence made Celtic a much more formidable obstacle to rivals Rangers. After an initial shaky start to the season, Celtic began to find their form and <mask> picked up his first winner's medal on 30 November 1997 with Celtic beating Dundee United 3–0 in the Scottish League Cup Final. <mask> is probably best remembered for his injury time goal 11 days earlier (19 November 1997) in a 1–1 draw with Rangers, which kept Rangers lead in the league at the time over Celtic to a recoverable 4 points. Many believe that this was the most important goal of the season for Celtic; they would later go on to overtake Rangers in the league and win the Scottish Premier Division that season, their first league title since 1988, and prevent Rangers from securing a record-breaking 10 league titles in a row. <mask> continued to impress at Celtic with his strong presence in defence, good range of passing and occasional goal. However a routine drug test after the Scottish Cup Final defeat to Rangers in May 1999 revealed <mask> was suffering from testicular cancer. <mask> Moravčík during Celtic's 2–0 win over Aberdeen in the Scottish League Cup Final.Stubbs also played 11 games in their 2000–01 SPL title winning season under new manager Martin O'Neill. However, he missed most of that campaign as he discovered early in the season that the cancer had come back. and had again to undergo treatment. <mask> again recovered from his illness, making his comeback in May 2001 in a league match against Hibernian where he came on as a second-half substitute to a rousing reception from both sets of fans and scored Celtic's fourth goal in a 5–2 win. However, Stubbs wife never truly settled in Scotland and his own battles with cancer saw the family look to make a return home to England. Everton
He joined Everton in July 2001 after winning his battle against cancer, and after his Celtic contract expired. On his arrival at Goodison Park, Stubbs stated it had always been his dream to play for the club.<mask> confirmed at the time part of his motive for moving to Everton was that he wanted to return home to his native Merseyside with his wife Mandy. <mask> quickly became a regular member of the team and excelled during his first season, as Everton finished 15th and reached the quarter-finals of the FA Cup. <mask> continued to be a consistent performer in the heart of the Toffees defence during the 2002–03 as he helped them finish seventh in the Premier League (their highest finish since 1996) under new manager David Moyes, and 2003–04, although they dipped to 17th and narrowly avoided relegation in this campaign. The 2004–05 season was another successful campaign for <mask>. Although a shoulder injury kept him out in April, he made 36 appearances, scoring once - in a 2–1 win against Portsmouth. He captained Everton to a 4th-place finish in the league which entered Everton into the qualifying rounds of the Champions League. He was set to continue as a vital part of the squad in 2005–06, but refused to sign a new contract as the club were willing to offer him only a one-year deal, and later revelations suggested a "cancer clause" in the contract that <mask> was unhappy with; claims Everton denied.Sunderland
Stubbs signed for Sunderland on 2 August 2005. Stubbs' final appearance at the Stadium of Light was to be the 3–0 victory over Northwich Victoria in the FA Cup. He scored once for Sunderland, in a 3–1 defeat at Arsenal on 5 November 2005. This was one of the worst seasons in Sunderland's history, as they were relegated with a then record Premier League low of three wins and 15 points. Return to Everton
Stubbs returned to Everton on a free transfer on 20 January 2006, signing a contract that was due to last until the end of the season. His form improved dramatically following his return, leading to manager David Moyes referring to him as "indispensable" in March. Despite the arrival of Joleon Lescott that summer, Stubbs maintained his place in starting line up and proved to be a pivotal figure behind Everton's push for a UEFA Cup place.In September 2007 after the murder of Rhys Jones, an 11-year-old Everton fan shot dead in Croxteth, <mask> delivered a reading at his funeral to a packed Liverpool Cathedral including members of Everton and Liverpool. Derby County
On 31 January 2008, Stubbs moved to Derby County in an 18-month deal on a free transfer. Derby's relegation from the Premiership with 11 points meant that Stubbs had been involved in the campaigns of the teams with two lowest points totals attained since the league's inception. On 20 August 2008, just after the start of Derby's 2008–09 Football League Championship campaign, it was announced that a recurring knee injury had forced him to retire from playing football. International career
<mask> won an England 'B' cap on 10 May 1994 in a match against Northern Ireland 'B' at Hillsborough. England won the match 4–2, with Stubbs coming on during the second half as a substitute for Chris Bart-Williams. Coaching career

Everton coach

In September 2008, Stubs returned once more to Everton, this time as a coach, where he was assistant manager of the U21 team for five years, before managing them for one year.In May 2013, Stubbs was interviewed by Bill Kenwright for the vacant manager's role at Everton, but Roberto Martínez was eventually selected to be the team's new manager. Despite this, Stubbs later credited Martínez for inspiring him to become a manager in his own right. Hibernian
Stubbs was appointed head coach of Scottish club Hibernian (Hibs) in June 2014 on a two-year contract, as Terry Butcher's successor after the club had been relegated to the Scottish Championship. This came after Hibs with Everton's permission had opened talks with Stubbs, who believed he was ready to become a manager. In his first press conference, Stubbs announced his aim of helping Hibs win promotion back to the Scottish Premiership by rebuilding the squad ahead of the new season. To do that, Stubbs also recruited his own backroom staff, consisting of assistant coach Andy Holden, player-coach <mask>, head physiotherapist John Porteous, strength and conditioning coach Paul Green, and first-team coach John Doolan. Under Stubbs' management, Hibs made ten signings, of which four were loan deals.Stubbs' first league match in charge was against Livingston; unusually, the Hibs goalkeeper (Mark Oxley) scored the winning goal. Stubbs guided Hibs to second place in the 2014–15 Scottish Championship, securing the position above Rangers on the last day of the season. Hibs entered the Premiership play offs at the semi-final stage, but lost 2–1 on aggregate to Rangers. Stubbs also guided Hibernian to a semi-final place in the 2014–15 Scottish Cup, where they lost 1–0 against Falkirk. In the 2015-16 season, Hibs initially challenged Rangers for automatic promotion but eventually finished third and lost in the playoffs to Falkirk. Hibs reached both domestic cup finals in 2015–16, losing the League Cup final to Ross County, but winning 3–2 in the Scottish Cup final against Rangers. This was the first time Hibs had won the Scottish Cup for 114 years.Rotherham United
Stubbs was appointed manager of EFL Championship club Rotherham United on 1 June 2016. His only win came on 20 August 2016, with Danny Ward scoring the only goal in a 1–0 win over Brentford. However, he was sacked less than two months later on 19 October 2016 following a 4–2 defeat to Birmingham City, and a record seventh straight away loss. Under <mask>' tenure, Rotherham lost ten of their first fourteen games, winning just once. They also conceded 37 goals during this period, leaving them with the worst goal difference in the entire EFL. Rotherham replaced <mask> with Kenny Jackett on 21 October 2016. St Mirren

<mask>لي; born 19 September 1967 in Mansoura, Egypt)  is an Egyptian writer. He grew up in Oman and United Arab Emirates. He obtained a BA in Business Administration from Mansoura University in 1992 and worked as a journalist in Rose al Yousef weekly magazine, then in Nizwa magazine in Muscat - Sultanate of Oman before going back to Cairo again to work as a cultural editor in Al Ahram newspaper since 1997. Now he is an editor in Al Arabi monthly magazine in Kuwait. Biography

<mask> is a critic and a fiction author, one of who called Nineties Generation in Egypt. In Egypt <mask> himself is part of this generation. But on the Arabic literary scene, which is shaped by strict hierarchies, new voices have a hard time being heard.Especially when, like <mask>, they abstain from running roughshod over Egyptian society's moral and religious taboos in order to attract attention to themselves. <mask> by contrast dwells in the realm of quiet tones – and does so without compromise. A state-run publisher demanded that he remove all sexual overtones from his manuscript for "The Ghosts of Feelings" before publishing it. But since that was out of the question for <mask>, he has no choice but to put up with the vagaries and lack of professionalism of the few remaining independent Egyptian literary publishers. He was just 24 years old when as a fledgling journalist he interviewed Egyptian Nobel Prize winner Naguib Mahfouz. His yearning for literature had become so overpowering that, just one year after completing his unloved course of studies in his small hometown of Mansoura, he moved to the big city of Cairo. In his works to date, <mask> has explored a variety of themes.In the short story collection (Ashbah Al Hawas) "The Ghosts of Feelings" he attempts to explore the relationship between Egyptian men and women, who come from utterly disparate backgrounds. Again and again, he tells the same story, but from a different perspective. By doing so, <mask> is trying to demonstrate how limited our understanding of people really is. <mask> configures the female body as a site of contradiction that creates chances for proximity and/or estrangement. Even when metamorphosed it does not represent an element of mystery but is taken as a given. He uses the fantastic to uncover moral degeneration in inhibited social relationships based on fantasy-bonds. As a literary critic, <mask> has been the quickest to dismiss such middle-brow, best-selling "phenomena" as Alaa Al-Aswany's The Yacoubian Building; and his principal argument against such books is that they pander to a growing but limited—and limiting—worldwide market, that "they are not novels at all, but illusions".Yet from a history-of-literature point of view, Abnaa Al-Gabalwi is probably the closest we have come to a fulfilment of the prophecy that a home-grown Magic Realism Movement would emerge in the new millennium.

"Of course Saramago, for me, is the literary model,"
To write a long, big, subtly conveyed text through which to say everything. And with the highest degree of artistic excellency possible, to create a large idea that accommodates numerous smaller ideas, juxtaposes styles and discordant voices. My ambition is a text that could be read and enjoyed and reread and still enjoyed by an ordinary reader as well as a member of the literary elite.It's an ambition like Dostoevsky's and Saramago's, and I hope I don't sound vain when I say this. I think I had been practising since Ibtisamat Al-Qiddissin (The Smiles of The saints). "Aside from theorising or stating the obvious, aside from the conditions of narrative and imagination and construction and the depth of the characters, I think a text to which the term 'novel' is applicable must also be an 'art object', meaning that it must make sublime, competent and beautiful use of the language, it must use the language in its own specific way. To be called a novel, the text must absorb the narrative methods that have been employed throughout history, it must know its place in the history of narrative. It has to be contemporary, experimental and deep, and work towards abiding by the conditions of the modern as a general context that is influenced in turn by economic, social and historical factors. Only then,". "is a narrative text worthy of being called a novel?".He taught me (Mahfouz) that you are not a writer unless you have to be independent even of the cliches of your own generation. I like complexity in a novel. More than one time frame, more than one character, more than one voice. My wish is to alter my voice till it becomes a multiplicity of voices in the manner of the Portuguese writer Fernando PesÓo, although of course there is a huge difference and I am still a student compared to him. I managed that somewhat in previous works, I created parallel time frames, but in general I totally incline towards this kind of layering. I like The God of Small Things, for example, for that same reason. It has to do with my growing up in Dubai and especially Oman, where the culture is saturated with stories of phantoms and djinn—to be found in the desert, which makes up most of the city, indeed—and elements of witchcraft are just part of everyday life.It was perfectly normal, for example, to talk about encountering a man with a goat's legs while crossing the street. And it is something that evidently stayed with me.

Laurette A. J<mask>o Government, which took office on 6 December 2011. Biography
Born in Ougrée to  and Germaine Ali Bakir, of Kabyle origin, she graduated in law at the University of Liège after which she worked as a lawyer for ten years. At the age of 30 she was elected to the Belgian Chamber of Representatives. Her father, <mask>, originally a Dutch-speaking migrant from Flemish Limburg to francophone Wallonia, has long been mayor of Seraing (near Liège) and member of the House of Representatives (1974–1987). Her grandfather, <mask>, was alderman and mayor of Jeuk in Limburg and lost his civil rights for some years after the 2nd world-war. Her older brother, <mask>, has been a member of the Regional Parliament of Wallonia since September 2005.She speaks French and Dutch. Controversy

When Turkish terrorist Fehriye Erdal was sentenced to four years imprisonment by a Bruges court on 28 February 2006, it turned out that she had shaken off the Belgian secret service, which had the responsibility of following her since 23 February 2006 (Erdal had been under house arrest since 2000, and living in the same building as the DHKP-C secretariat). Both <mask> <mask> and Minister of the Interior Patrick Dewael have come under fire for this incident; the Christian Democratic and Flemish party (CD&V) and Vlaams Belang demanded the resignation of both of them on 6 March 2006. In July 2006, Onkelinx came under heavy political fire again when one of Belgian's most notorious criminals, Murat Kaplan, did not return from a weekend-leave, which she signed off. In August 2006 she came again under heavy fire when 28 prisoners managed to escape from a prison in Dendermonde. In September 2006, it was reported that the criminal Victor Hoxha had returned to Belgium – he was deported earlier from Belgium in 2006, and told not to return for ten years. Prime minister Guy Verhofstadt, of the Flemish Liberals and Democrats (VLD), has now asked the minister to refrain from releasing any criminals prematurely in the coming three months, but she refuses this demand.This comes just before the government prepares its budget for the coming year, and the October municipal elections. CD&V and Vlaams Belang again had asked the resignation of the minister, but it is unknown how far the VLD will go in supporting the minister (and accordingly, the current federal government). On 23 September, it was reported that another criminal did not return from day-leave. Tony Van Parys, of the CD&V party, called it "incomprehensible that someone like Azzouzi [criminal in question] would get penitentiary leave." The cabinet's crisis was averted the next week, when a deal was struck between the VLD and PS, allowing criminals only to be released on parole, in the next months, after consent by their victim (or the victim's family). On 6 October, two days before the Belgian municipal elections, <mask> <mask> was hit with a pie at an election event in Schaerbeek. The perpetrator was Benito Franscesconi, a 78-year-old man, who has a history of "civil disobiedence."Franscesconi has made himself a civil party to many court cases in which he had no direct interest. First married to Abbès Guenned, a Belgian of Moroccan descent, she divorced him in 1997–1998, Morocco asked for his extradition, accusing him of drug trafficking (Guenned was stopped on 31 July 1997 at the airport of Zaventem, while being in the possession of a diplomatic passport), a charge which has since been dropped. He was also arrested in Turkey but released after strong influence from the Belgian government. At that time, Onkelinx was presiding over the government of Belgium's French Community. Onkelinx then married barrister . Witnesses to this marriage were both their former husband and wife. In 2003, Guenned became an adviser to Onkelinx' cabinet, charged with the preparation of the election of the Belgian advisory Muslim council, and dealing with town management but, especially, with the communication between the cabinet and the Islamic associations.In 2009, she criticized Pope Benedict XVI over his comments that condoms distribution without prior education only worsen the AIDS crisis. In 2014, it was revealed that her Ministry hired the firm of her own husband, , as a legal consultant, for a cost of 245,000 euros. On 13 September 2017, Onkelincx announced she would not be a candidate for the 2019 elections.

<mask> (March 17, 1939 – January 14, 2006) was an American sculptor popularly known for his large, colorful creations of dinosaurs made from discarded automobile parts. These sculptures were typically finished with automobile paint although some were left to develop a natural patina during display outdoors. He was also recognized internationally for his fine, architectural, landscape, and whimsical monumental art as well as abstracts. Sculpture and life figures by <mask> often included intricate use of stained glass and his works were frequently composed of, or included, hardware, machine parts, and tools. He employed painted steel in many works, it being his metal of choice. One of his signature works, Universal Woman, a life-sized figure of a woman composed entirely of hardware gained the admiration of renowned sculptor Jacques Lipchitz at a sidewalk show in New York in the early 1960s. Both are modernist sculptors.The Washington Post featured a zoom image from their files of this sculpture in its electronic edition of their 2006 tribute to <mask> at his death. A 1971 museum exhibit of his fine art in Washington, D.C. was cited in his listing in Who Was Who in American Art, 1564-1975: 400 Years of Artists in America, a standard library art reference. In 2011 the Asbury Park Press referred to <mask> as an icon in the arts. He was born in Sebastian, Florida, but lived in Colts Neck, New Jersey from early infancy and considered it his hometown. At the time of his death he was a resident of nearby Farmingdale. <mask> is the only sculptor ever invited to present a solo exhibition at the Smithsonian Institution's National Museum of Natural History in Washington, D.C., which opened on April 12, 1990. In January 2006, Time stated that <mask>'s work "delighted kids as well as curators, including those at the Smithsonian's National Museum of Natural History, where he had an acclaimed solo show in 1990."A video tribute to <mask> was featured by ABC News on This Week with George Stefanopoulos on Sunday, January 22, 2006. During the same month, on January 24, 2006, the Los Angeles Times reported in an article, <mask>, 66; Artist Who Created Playful Dinosaur Skeletons From Car Parts, that some critics compared <mask>'s sculptures with Pablo Picasso's famous Bull's Head sculpture, made from a bicycle seat and handlebars. The New York Times devoted half of a page to their newsworthy obituary for <mask> on January 19, 2006. Because of his international popularity his death was treated as news around the world  and the <mask> obituary ran the next day in the arts and leisure section of the globally distributed English language newspaper, the International Herald Tribune, with the title, <mask>, Sculptor in Metal. Biography
While still at grammar school, at the age of eleven, he moved out of his parents' Colts Neck home and began making his own living. He supported himself by doing odd jobs and selling his handmade seasonal decorations. For almost a year he secretly slept in the garage of the Sterner family, a prominent Monmouth County couple in the same community, who employed him regularly.Once the family discovered this, they provided space in their home for him. He remained close to them until they died. <mask> attended Freehold High School, where he developed an interest in sculpting with wood; he was inducted into the school's hall of fame in 2007. From junk parts, <mask> built what he needed to get about, first a bicycle and soon—long before he was old enough to drive on the roads legally—automobiles. He competed in gymnastics as a student. After serving in the United States Navy he taught welding and gymnastics in a federal program. During this period he developed a deft hand at welding.Shortly thereafter, applying these welding skills, he began making sculptures that he marketed as architectural elements, and showing his fine art in the New York metropolitan area. The admiration of welders regarding his welding skills also is documented on his official web site. Early career
Reassured of the caliber of his work by the compliments he received in the encounter with Lipchitz (who made a professional suggestion for a better method of preparing a stand for the life-sized torso <mask> had on display), he established his gallery, Iron Butterfly, in Colts Neck featuring the works of other artists he selected as well as his own work, later moving the gallery to Red Bank. The multitalented Gerald Lubeck was one such artist featured at <mask>'s fledgling gallery. Classes were offered at the gallery by <mask> and Virginia Laudano (who later, would manage the gallery when <mask> was on tour and currently is an instructor  at an art center in Florida). <mask>'s fine art—such as the life-sized Universal Woman—wall units, bronze portraits and busts, and abstracts consistently won top prizes when submitted in the professional show circuits of New York and the surrounding states. He featured stained glass in many of his formal sculptures.It was often used for accent, but some life-sized figurative studies such as Stained Glass Woman with Tattoo were constructed entirely of multi-colored glass sections welded together. He was commissioned to create entire suites of rooms, integrating his sculpture into furniture he built. Commissions included ornate metal doors made to order. He sometimes used the products of clients to create fine art for their offices. Brewers especially liked to give huge seasonal wreaths he constructed from their original cans. One of his works had brass fish swimming through copper seagrass. Some of his sculptures were kinetic.Commissions from clients often asked merely for his interpretation of their favorite subject. Examples of his many architectural sculptures include his baptismal font for Saint Benedict's Catholic Church in nearby Holmdel, a Holocaust memorial commissioned in Springfield, his life-sized nudes in metal and stained glass for the Monmouth County Opera Society, and the September 11 memorial at the Municipal Building in Colts Neck. As he gathered parts for the unique automobiles he constructed when he was young, <mask> said he realized that these parts resembled anatomical structures of insects, large birds, reptiles, and especially the bones of dinosaurs. Early in his career, he began to construct sculptures of those animals by assembling the automobile parts into almost life-sized models. He used as many as eight to ten vehicles to create his large dinosaur sculptures  and the unaltered parts are identifiable. Common tools became pivotal structures in some of his sculptures. Volkswagens metamorphosed into turtles and prehistoric dinosaurs.<mask> had to invent equipment to build and move the huge sculptures, creating the scaffolding, hoists, and even special vehicles that featured cranes to haul the sculptures around at his rural workshop and to place them onto trucks for transportation. He also relied upon blacksmith skills to fashion unique hand tools when no standard ones were useful for his needs. International traveling exhibition launched

These sculptures provided a unique display that became <mask>'s hallmark by the early 1970s and soon it became the traveling exhibition, <mask>'s Twentieth Century Dinosaurs, which appealed to toddlers through grandparents. Some of his signature sculptures in the exhibition exceeded sixty feet and <mask> frequently painted them in bright colors using automobile paints. They were often transported to exhibitions on huge, open flatbed trucks, fascinating fellow travelers on the roads. Impromptu parades formed as drivers followed the dinosaurs to their destination or a stopping point, where people milled around the trucks asking questions and admiring the sculptures. In 1979 the Academy of Natural Sciences in Philadelphia contracted with <mask> for an exhibition of his sculptures.It is the oldest institution of its kind in the entire hemisphere. The implications of their acceptance of his work as interesting to scientists and their audiences as well as to art lovers and popular culture audiences set <mask> on a course for his career that garnered invitations from all over the world through marketing targeted to diverse types of museums and venues. Steve Miller of the New York Sun noted in his news breaking obituary in 2006  that the museum exhibit at the academy brought national attention to <mask>. In 1982 his sculpture was hosted by Carnegie. Once asked why he built all of the enormous dinosaur sculptures, the typically quiet sculptor responded, "Because people like them." The huge crowds who flocked to his exhibits demonstrated their immense popularity. Grinning <mask> birds, critters, and dinosaurs have been featured in articles and on the covers of magazines from Smithsonian and Sculpture Review (publication of the National Sculpture Society)    to National Geographic World (now called, National Geographic Kids) and Time.His work has been featured in textbooks, encyclopedias, educational videos, newspapers, on the Internet, and on television shows around the world. In January 2006, the Los Angeles Times reported that "one of his works, Stegosaurus, is included in Alphabet Animals, a children's book by Charles Sullivan that includes depictions of animals by John James Audubon, Alexander Calder, and Marc Chagall." All of the letters of the alphabet were taught using works of fine art through illustrations or professional photographs of artworks. "S" was taught with <mask>'s green dinosaur, Stegosaurus. After the display became the permanent <mask>'s Twentieth Century Dinosaurs exhibition, it traveled internationally to museums and universities; was used as sets for films, plays, and operas; was presented as exhibits for national auto shows and racing events as well as the premier international auto shows such as New York and Detroit; and was presented as landscape displays in the most elegant of botanical gardens, such as Longwood Gardens on the Pierre S. du Pont estate. The premier research and development center for revolutionary technologies, Bell Laboratories, booked a private exhibition of fifty of <mask>'s sculptures in 1981 for the atrium lobby of their Holmdel facility for the benefit of its employees, as the first in a diversified art program planned to provide the enhancement of the environment and enrichment and cultural benefits for the employees and the visitors to the center. A well-publicized reception for the opening of the solo show at the corporation was attended by the family and friends of the staff.The exhibition was booked for a tour of Japan that began in April 1984. The poster displayed to the right was for the opening exhibition at a national museum in Tokyo that lasted through May, before making a six-month tour to museums in other Japanese cities. Posters were distributed in the cities that were included in the tour and they were displayed in buses, trains, and other public places to announce the exhibition in each museum. A four-month-long museum solo show of his sculpture exhibition was held from July–November 1985 at the California Academy of Sciences in San Francisco, California. This exhibition was also used as the setting for significant portions of the 1986 film, Howard the Duck, a science fiction comedy produced by George Lucas. This

 exhibition opened for <mask>'s unique four-month solo show of his sculpture at the Smithsonian Institution's National Museum of Natural History in Washington, D.C. on April 12, 1990, and, according to the museum director, drew record-breaking attendance to the museum. <mask> is the only living sculptor ever invited for a solo show and the museum director indicated that it exceeded the number of visitors to any other exhibitions.Commissioned work and fees for the exhibitions of his work that were so heavily attended became his mainstay. His gallery was closed in favor of marketing through his studio. Signature sculptures of <mask>'s fine art were among the works displayed in these solo shows and tours, attracting many commissions for private collections. Selected works offered for sale sometimes accompanied the permanent exhibition as it was booked for displays, shows, and exhibits. In 1993 the award-winning Nicky Silver play, Pterodactyls, featured <mask> sculptures in its sets when it opened in Manhattan. When the state of New Jersey held the gala opening of its first major science museum, the Liberty Science Center, just across the harbor from lower Manhattan on January 28, 1993, the entire first floor exhibition space was devoted to what the museum director called "the spectacular dinosaur sculptures made by... <mask>". A <mask> dinosaur is in the collection of Ripley's Believe It or Not!, which displays the sculpture in its museums and features the <mask> "Stegosaurus" in its publications.Ripley first exhibited it in their museum in Daegu, Korea and the sculpture travels to other locations. Many fledgling nonprofit organizations raising funds to build museums and creating parks for children held an exhibition of <mask>'s Twentieth Century Dinosaurs by covering the expense of the complicated shipping alone, as he donated his normal fees to the cause. Some were able to raise enough funds from fees paid by the visitors to the popular exhibits that, eventually, they could afford to purchase one of his dinosaurs in a permanent acquisition to their collection. Great numbers of museums especially designed to engage children have hosted exhibitions of <mask>'s sculpture. Generations have grown up with vivid memories of his work and his encouragement for them to follow his dynamic example. Astounding attendance records demonstrated a cross-cultural popularity in Australia, China, and Japan. The last solo shows featuring the <mask>'s Twentieth Century Dinosaurs exhibition on tour during the lifetime of the sculptor were two related ones in North Carolina in 2004.First the exhibition was displayed at Lowe's Motor Speedway in Concord for its Spring Extravaganza, after which the sculptures traveled to the University of North Carolina at Charlotte for an exhibition hosted by its Belk College of Business. The sculptures were featured both indoors and outside on the large campus with walking and driving tours offered to the public,  and the tour was extended twice. <mask> is a self-taught sculptor whose works include abstracts, three-dimensional portraits, architectural, and functional pieces, as well as the celebrated collection of "Twentieth Century Dinosaurs"... [He] creates his art using the things that many of us think of as junk. Old car parts, metal washers, glass, and screws are transformed into extraordinary works through the gift of <mask>’s imagination. Considered a master of metal working, <mask> creates the impression of motion from cold steel and found objects. Best of all, he infuses humor and personality into his creations. Spend just a few minutes with his road runners and dinosaurs and look at the expressions on their faces – you will find yourself naming the creatures and wanting to take them home!...In September 2009 <mask>'s publicist and studio director, Kafi Benz, announced that negotiations were in progress for sculptures from the exhibition to be put on permanent loan at a museum. Her long-range plan was that as much of the traveling exhibition as possible be displayed in permanent collections where the sculptures would remain open to the public. She noted that several sculptures had been placed at museums and venues in New Jersey that traditionally hosted displays of his sculpture throughout <mask>'s career, but most of the sculptures from the traveling exhibition were among those being included in the negotiations for loan as a single collection. She also stated that other <mask> sculptures from private collections could expand the collection that is being loaned by the Jim Gary Foundation. On August 22, 2011, twenty-one <mask> sculptures were shipped from New Jersey to Florida. Three photographers were invited by <mask>'s studio director and publicist to document the preparations and loading of the sculptures: William Angus, Jason Meehan, and Hal Sokolow. Both Angus and Sokolow have produced works dedicated to, or about, <mask> during their careers and more will be produced from the move.Angus stated that he doubted he would ever have an opportunity similar to shooting the complex move again in his lifetime. Following a refurbishment of the sculptures, they are scheduled to be on exhibit at the Tallahassee Museum for at least a decade. They were at the museum previously, as a traveling exhibition in 1993, and the current executive director of the museum, Russell Daws, was in the same position at that time. Daws was in a similar position in 1979 at the Academy of Natural Sciences in Philadelphia when he contracted with <mask> for his first opportunity to exhibit at a museum. An initial opening at an invitational fundraising event on October 14 will be followed by a public opening on October 15, 2011. Lectures, media coverage, and annual free display
<mask> was a popular figure for lectures about his work and was booked as a speaker by diverse groups, ranging from art and cultural associations and institutions to those focused upon automobiles, engineering, science, and trades such as welding. Coverage was frequent by the mass media, both published and broadcast, not only for openings of exhibitions of his work, but as a featured sculptor whose work remained interesting and popular with the public.As an example, <mask> was one of the invited speakers in the CBS television documentary Dinosaur!, hosted by Christopher Reeve in 1985. <mask> always took the time to make appearances at schools to show children how he made his sculptures and to encourage them to pursue their own creative talents. Along with typical pieces of his work he also provided small sculptures made of materials familiar to children at school lectures. He personally answered every letter sent to him by a youngster. As reported by Karen DeMasters in The New York Times on December 16, 2001, in Hark, the Pterodactyl's Wing, every year <mask> provided hot chocolate, coffee, and cookies to those visiting an illuminated display of his sculpture, open to the public at his home, to celebrate the holidays in December. Lights were strung on the sculptures to delineate the structure of each dinosaur. During these displays <mask> gave lectures and led discussions about his work.In 2005, <mask> became too ill to manage his traditional and festive seasonal event, choosing instead to display a few works at a gallery in a nearby community. <mask> was quite welcoming to people who stopped by his home to admire the sculptures that he always kept among his well-tended gardens. It was not unusual for him to invite visitors to sit down and chat for a while. <mask>saurus — and other neologisms
A tribute to the sculptor was published on February 14, 2006, in the British newspaper, The Guardian, by Andrew Roth, a well known biographer and journalist whose detailed obituaries were composed for national and international figures of note. In this tribute the author coined a new word, Garysaurus, a neologism to describe a dinosaur sculpture created by <mask>. The memorials, tributes, and obituaries for <mask> were numerous, the international recognition reflecting the widespread appeal of his work. Roth's apt name for <mask>'s dinosaur sculptures has begun to be used by others.Early in his career, the invention of neologisms arose for <mask>'s dinosaurs. Chevrosaurus was among the first when it was published in the New York Times in May 1979. Another New York Times writer described one of <mask>'s works as a Diner-saurus in 1993, because when the green Stegosaurus was not traveling on exhibition, he usually displayed it at the diner he frequented. None of these stuck for long without the <mask> name as part of the new words, as Roth's clever title does in his tribute. Death
On January 14, 2006, <mask> died in Freehold, New Jersey of complications from a cerebral hemorrhage suffered the month before. Notes

<mask>. is an American physician and professor of medicine as the Grant W. Liddle Endowed Chair at Vanderbilt University School of Medicine. He is conducting research as a geriatric intensivist in the Division of Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine and the Center for Health Services Research at Vanderbilt University Medical Center. He is also the associate director of research at the Tennessee Valley Geriatric Research Education and Clinical Center (GRECC), part of the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs. <mask>'s work is focused on aging, delirium, post-ICU dementia, and other disorders related to post-intensive care syndrome, a set of conditions common especially in elderly patients that develops during acute care hospitalization and could be caused by the treatments used in intensive care medicine. The diagnosis and treatment protocols developed by <mask> and his research group have been validated by independent studies, translated into many languages, and adopted by hospitals around the world. Early life and education
<mask> attended Jesuit High School in Shreveport, Louisiana, where his mother <mask> was an English teacher and theater director of the high school. His father <mask> was a mechanical engineer who worked for Ingersoll-Rand.After high school, <mask>. attended Tulane University in New Orleans, Louisiana, where he graduated summa cum laude with a bachelor's degree in Biology in 1985. He went on to attend the university's School of Public Health and Tropical Medicine, graduating with a public health master's degree in 1989. <mask> earned his medical degree from the Tulane University School of Medicine later the same year. Career
After graduating from medical school, <mask> began his residency at Bowman Gray School of Medicine (now known as Wake Forest School of Medicine). After three years as a resident, he continued at the hospital as a postdoctoral fellow until 1995. Until 1998, <mask> served as professor of internal medicine at the same medical school and medical director of its Chronic Lung Failure Clinic. In 1998, <mask> trained in lung transplantation at Barnes-Jewish Hospital of the Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis, Missouri before leaving Bowman Gray to serve as a professor of medicine at Vanderbilt University Medical Center.Since 1998, <mask> has served as a pulmonologist, professor and researcher at Vanderbilt. His research is focused on the diagnosis, causes, and management of delirium and other cognitive disorders developed during a patient's hospital stay, especially in geriatric patients. He founded and currently heads the ICU Delirium and Cognitive Impairment Study Group at Vanderbilt. <mask>'s group has been studying the long term effects of mechanical ventilation and sedation on patients in intensive care units (ICU). The group also publishes a website in an attempt to educate potential patients, families, doctors and other healthcare professionals about the effects and causes of delirium and post-intensive care syndrome (PICS). <mask> is one of several physicians that encourages a reduction in the use of sedatives (especially benzodiazepines) to shorten patients’ time on mechanical ventilation during ICU treatment. With others at Vanderbilt, the team also developed an outpatient post-ICU clinic for patients at Vanderbilt.<mask> was also a co-chair of the ICU Liberation Campaign of Society for Critical Care Medicine, which encourages the use of protocols to mitigate the effects of delirium and PICS. Together with Pratik Pandharipande, <mask> co-directs the Critical Illness, Brain Dysfunction and Survivorship Center (CIBS Center) at Vanderbilt University Medical Center.Dr. <mask> recently testified as a paid expert in Dr Husel’s murder trial that 1) 1000mcg of fentanyl would kill an elephant, 2) he gives 12.5 to 25mcg doses to highly opioid tolerant terminal wean patients and 3) it’s inappropriate to withdraw care at night. His reputation amongst active clinical physicians suffered as one would expect. Research
In 1996, while serving as chief resident at Bowman Gray, <mask> and his colleagues published the findings of a study into the efficacy of a ventilator weaning protocol (called spontaneous breathing trials) in shortening the duration an ICU patient required assistance through mechanical ventilation as well as reducing complications and cost of care. The study published in The New England Journal of Medicine reported that "daily screening followed by spontaneous breathing trials in medical and coronary intensive care units reduced the duration of ventilation from a median of 6.0 to 4.5 [days]." In 2001, <mask> and Gordon Bernard were investigators on a study of the recombinant-form Activated Protein C (known as Drotrecogin alfa) and its possible efficacy in the treatment of sepsis.The same year, <mask> and his ICU Delirium Study Group developed CAM-ICU based on an earlier Confusion Assessment Method (CAM) developed by Sharon Inouye. CAM-ICU is one of two commonly used methods to diagnose delirium in ICU patients. It has been validated in later independent studies, with a meta-analysis review of these studies showing high "pooled values for sensitivity and specificity of 80% and 95.9%, respectively." Also in 2001, <mask> was awarded The American Federation for Aging Research's Paul B. Beeson Career Development Award. In 2002, <mask> was appointed Associate Director of Research at the Tennessee Valley Geriatric Research Education and Clinical Center (GRECC), part of the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs. In a 2004 study, Ely et al. reported that delirium predicted an increased risk of mortality in ICU patients.This has since been confirmed in at least two additional cohort studies. In 2006, <mask> was inducted into the American Society for Clinical Investigation for his work demonstrating how "delirium is associated with a tripling of the risk of death within 6 months of ICU" hospitalization. In 2007, <mask>, Pandharipande et al. published the results of the MENDS trial which investigated "the incidence and duration of delirium" when using the sedative dexmedetomidine compared to a benzodiazepine (specifically lorazepam). This and subsequent studies have resulted "in the recommendation to minimize the use of benzodiazepines in the most recent sedation guidelines." In July 2007, <mask> along with Timothy D. Girard and their colleagues presented the findings of a randomized clinical trial of a daily protocol of attempts at awakening the patient and allowing them to breathing independently. The 335-patient study presented at the International Conference of the American Thoracic Society reported that these daily tests, where the ICU patient was allowed to come out of sedation and breathe spontaneously without the use of a ventilator, resulted in the patients leaving the hospital an average of four days earlier.In 2010, <mask> and Girard reported a correlation between the length of time the patient was affected by delirium and their cognitive outcome in the long-term. They developed a protocol named ABC which took earlier demonstrated attempts at ceasing sedation and paired it with concurrent attempts at a spontaneous breathing trial through the ventilator weaning method developed by him in 1996. <mask> and his colleagues later extended the protocol, renamed ABCDEF Bundle, to include advice on the choice of sedation drugs, monitoring of delirium, early exercise, and encouragement of family participation. In 2013, <mask> was inducted into the Association of American Physicians. In October 2013, <mask>, Pandharipande, and their team published the results of a study, sponsored by the National Institutes of Health and the Department of Veterans Affairs, about the long-term effects of ICU Delirium. The study reported that even after a one-year period, "34 percent of patients [affected by ICU Delirium] were still functioning on the same level as someone with moderate traumatic brain injury and 24 percent at the level of a person with mild Alzheimer's." In 2018, he reported to the annual congress of the European Society of Intensive Care Medicine the results of the MIND-USA study into the efficacy of haloperidol and ziprasidone in the treatment of delirium.The antipsychotic drugs used for decades for the treatment of ICU delirium were found to be ineffective for that purpose, according to the study by <mask> and his colleagues published in the NEJM. During the COVID-19 pandemic, <mask> warned that efforts to mitigate delirium had been erased by the disease. COVID-19 patients also show a higher prevalence of hospital delirium. As well as recommending the ABCDEF Bundle to lower the incidence of delirium in COVID-19 patients and prevent PICS, <mask> and other researchers at the CIBS Center also initiated studies into the effects of delirium on COVID-19 patients and their increased "risk of developing long-term cognitive issues, depression and post-traumatic stress disorder." Views
<mask> writes reflective opinion pieces and editorials about his personal experiences as a physician, which have been published in the Annals of Internal Medicine, JAMA, and The Wall Street Journal, among other periodicals. He participates in the ongoing debate on euthanasia and physician-assisted suicide through medical literature and international debates. He also wrote a CNN Opinion piece describing his own experiences with patients in palliative care who desired assisted suicide.In May 2019, <mask> wrote an opinion article published in USA Today, arguing against "death by donation", a practice currently illegal in the U.S. and Canada where a patient voluntarily donates their organs while still alive, subsequently leading to their death. In late June 2020, <mask> wrote a Perspective article for The Washington Post describing the difficulties of treating COVID-19 patients while conducting ethical research into new treatment regimens for the disease and its effects including delirium. Personal life
<mask> has three daughters with his wife <mask>, who also works at Vanderbilt University Medical Center. She is a surgical pathologist who graduated from Massachusetts Institute of Technology and like her husband attended Tulane University School of Medicine. He is the president of the Nashville Guild of the Catholic Medical Association. Selected bibliography

Sir <mask>  (4 May 1921 – 10 January 2005) was a British Conservative politician who was elected Member of Parliament for Mid Bedfordshire in a 1960 by-election and held it until he stood down at the 1983 general election. He was also a soldier, MI6 operative, Master of Foxhounds and author. The son of a Southern Rhodesian farmer, <mask> had visited the country only briefly as a young child, but he grew up with tales of the veldt and the farm. A year after he was elected to Parliament, he accepted an invitation from the British South Africa Company to visit the country, and from then on made frequent visits, getting to know the leading white politicians. Over the next 20 years, <mask> devoted his political energies to injecting what he felt was much needed balance into the debate about Rhodesia's future. When Rhodesia's Prime Minister, Ian Smith, unilaterally declared the independence of Rhodesia in 1964, <mask> was a prominent member of the Rhodesia lobby opposing sanctions – against the official party line. Fourteen years later, he strongly supported the Internal Settlement between Smith and the moderate nationalist leaders under which Bishop Abel Muzorewa became Prime Minister, though effective power remained in white hands.He saw the Lancaster House Agreement of 1979, which created an independent Zimbabwe and led to Robert Mugabe's election, as a disaster caused by "unnecessary deference to the delusion of the Commonwealth, the Afro-Asian lobby and to the Americans by a series of British governments". Although <mask> claimed to have been invited to join Edward Heath's administration, his stance on Rhodesia effectively rendered him ineligible for office. Even Margaret Thatcher, whom he counted as an ally, kept him on the backbenches, though she recommended him for a knighthood in 1983. In his latter years at his Cambridgeshire home, Stibbington House, the only person whose photographs were displayed in more than one room (apart from those of his beloved late wife, Elizabeth Anne) were those of Smith. Early life
He was born in London. His father had run away to Southern Rhodesia at the age of 17 after a disagreement with his father, and, after the First World War, bought a farm there. For the first two years of his life, <mask> lived with his parents on the farm; then he and his younger sister were sent home to England, where they were brought up by their doting and affluent maternal grandmother in Berkshire.<mask> was proud of his Scottish ancestry, among whose relations were the MacDonalds of Sleat. He had an abiding affection for his cousin the historian and journalist, <mask>. He learned to ride in Windsor Great Park, becoming an accomplished horseman. He attended Durnford School in Dorset (1929–34) and Eton College (1934–39). At Eton he managed to combine an undistinguished academic career, and with the clandestine help of his grandmother and her chauffeur, to engage in racing as an amateur jockey and, more importantly for his future, <mask> began a lifelong love for steeplechasing and fox hunting. Military career
On leaving school, his grandmother offered to pull strings to enable him to pursue a career either as a racehorse trainer or in the Scots Guards. He chose the latter.Commissioned in the Scots Guards from Royal Military Academy Sandhurst in January 1940, <mask> saw action against the Italians and Germans in the Western Desert, taking part in Operation Crusader, which relieved Tobruk and threw Rommel out of Cyrenaica. After disagreements with his company commander he joined the SAS, and before El Alamein participated in a successful operation against an airfield, and a disastrous one against Benghazi, earning a Mention in Dispatches. Then, after being diagnosed with chronic bronchitis, he landed a job in Cairo as ADC to the Minister of State, Richard Casey. By mid-1943 <mask> was pronounced fit again, and joined SOE. His first assignment was to accompany the Franco-American landing in the south of France. He arrived in the newly liberated Paris in August 1944, then was dropped with a wireless operator and interpreter behind enemy lines in the Apennines as chief liaison officer to the Italian partisans. He found them demoralised and largely non-existent, but successfully trained and armed them, despite internal conflicts and frequent enemy attempts to capture him.By early April he had organised three divisions of about 4,000 partisans, which seized Piacenza and held a bridgehead over the River Po in a three-day operation. <mask> was constantly to the fore, coolly directing and encouraging his men while under constant machine-gun and mortar fire, according to the citation for his Military Cross. After the capture of Piacenza, <mask> and a few companions journeyed through German-held territory, and strode into the piazza of a seaside village on the Adriatic. <mask> thereupon convinced the German officer in charge that it would be in his best interest to provide them with a fine seaside villa and supplies of champagne for the weeks that it would take the Allies to arrive. At the end of April 1945, <mask> was in the Piazzale Loreto at Milan and saw the bodies of Benito Mussolini and Clara Petacci, who along with other executed fascists, were hanging upside down. He noted that Petacci's skirt had been pinned to her stockings to prevent her underwear from being revealed. <mask> considered this to be a perfect example of the often paradoxical delicacy of the Italian temperament.The Piacenza operation was universally considered a major contribution to the Allied advance. He also found time to assemble a scratch pack - the Brindisi Vale Hounds - which hunted a reported, but probably non-existent, fox. He was spared a posting to Nagasaki by a friend finding him a job in the economic division of the control commission in Austria, a post for which, he admitted at his interview, he had no relevant qualifications. When the friend returned to England, <mask> remained in Austria, taking a staff job with the Army with the sole duty of looking after the polo ponies, and occasionally played himself. He was then sent to a former Wehrmacht training centre, above the Judenburg in Styria, where he captained the British troops' ski-racing team but broke a leg during a competition against the French. 1948 onwards
Finding peacetime duties unexciting, <mask> left the Army in 1948. He turned down an offer from Gillette and was refused a job by the BBC.Eventually he was invited by a friend to join MI6, which sent him in 1950 to Finland, disguised as an assistant military attaché. Four years later he moved to Paris, where he observed the conspiracy over the Suez operation and the machinations that preceded Charles de Gaulle's return to power. From 1958 to 1960, he worked in the political office of the Middle East forces in Cyprus. As a result of his work countering the KGB, <mask> was one of the few Englishmen of his class and age to enjoy vodka neat, as well as the company of all and sundry. He, like his wife Elizabeth Anne, was utterly unsnobbish. The unproven imputations put forward in the book Spycatcher, in which <mask> was portrayed as participating in an attempt to destabilise the Harold Wilson government were always vehemently denied by him. The book's author, Peter Wright, was regularly denounced by <mask> as "that traitor", though no one knew exactly to what betrayal he was referring.His disgust at the Suez Crisis led to his putting his name down with Conservative Central Office as a candidate, and in 1960 he was offered the safe seat of Mid Bedfordshire; He won a 1960 by-election caused by the elevation to the peerage of Alan Lennox-Boyd. He retained his seat in the subsequent general elections in 1964, 1966, 1970, February 1974, October 1974, and 1979, but stood down at the 1983 general election, when he was succeeded by fellow-Conservative Sir Nicholas Lyell. <mask> quickly established his credentials on the Right of the party, becoming a stalwart of the Monday Club and an ally of the likes of Julian Amery and Ronald Bell. He served on various backbench committees, becoming a member of the executive of the 1922 Committee and vice-chairman of the Conservative backbench Foreign Affairs Committee. At the 1964 Conservative Party Conference, he was cheered to the rafters by conference delegates for a speech deeply critical of the party leadership; he was never invited to speak again. He could be an effective Commons performer. His self-confident, upper-class drawl and theatrical oratorical style enraged Labour MPs.He was often embroiled in controversy concerning Communist infiltration. In 1977 he alleged that five prominent trades union officials were agents for communist countries, based on tape recordings made by the Czech defector Josef Frolík. The following year, before Margaret Thatcher came into office, <mask> and Brian Crozier wrote her a paper setting out "the diabolical nature of the Communist conspiracy" against Britain. At <mask>'s suggestion she appointed a committee comprising Willie Whitelaw, Lord Carrington, Sir Keith Joseph and <mask> himself. This proposed forming a counter-subversion executive but the scheme was quietly dropped after the Tories came to power in 1979. In 1986 <mask> successfully sued The Observer newspaper for libel following allegations that he had been one of two Conservative MPs involved in an MI5 plot to oust Harold Wilson. <mask> remained a friend of Thatcher after his retirement from the Commons in 1983.He and his wife entertained the Thatchers and other notables at Milton Hall, the largest private house in Cambridgeshire. In 1982 Margaret and Denis Thatcher were at dinner with the Hastings at Milton when the butler entered to ask the Prime Minister to the telephone, by which Mrs Thatcher was informed of Argentina's invasion of the British South Atlantic island of South Georgia. This marked the start of the Falklands War. Outside his parliamentary duties, <mask> continued to ride, hunting regularly with the Fitzwilliam and other hunts. In 1982 he was elected chairman of the British Field Sports Society in succession to Sir Marcus Kimball. After retiring from Parliament, he became a partner and manager of the Milton Park Stud, a member of the council of the Thoroughbred Breeders' Association, and joint master of the Fitzwilliam Hunt. He had maintained his lifelong love of racing and each evening before dinner, a glass of champagne in hand, he would watch the races of the day, prerecorded by his butler.<mask> was chairman of the Peterborough Cathedral Development and Preservation Trust and helped raise millions of pounds for the cathedral's restoration. He was patron of 32 livings, and took his duty to help provide priests for his parishes seriously. He and Elizabeth Anne could be found in the squire's pew at the Church of St Mary the Virgin, Marholm, any Sunday they were at Milton. <mask> was an accomplished painter, a fine sculptor, and wrote two books, The Murder of TSR2 (1966) and a well-received autobiography, The Drums of Memory (1995). He regularly skied in Switzerland until he was in his ninth decade, and hunted with the Fitzwilliam over forty times in the year before his death. <mask> married first, in 1948 (dissolved 1971), Harriet Tomlin, with whom he had a son Neil and a daughter Carola. He married secondly, in 1975, Elizabeth Anne Marie Gabrielle, the former Lady Naylor-Leyland.<mask> was born the younger daughter of the 2nd and last Viscount FitzAlan of Derwent and Joyce Langdale of Houghton Hall, West Riding, Yorkshire, who secondly married Thomas Wentworth-Fitzwilliam, 10th and last Earl Fitzwilliam. In 1979 Lord Fizwilliam left the bulk of his great art collection and the estates of Milton, Cambridgeshire, Wentworth Woodhouse, near Doncaster, and Malton, North Yorkshire, as well as a grand town house in Belgrave Square to his widow, and to Elizabeth Anne, who was widely known in society as the daughter of Lord Fitzwilliam, a fact which she was known to confirm from time to time, though with reservations. Lady <mask> died from cancer at Milton in 1997. She was succeeded in her stewardship of the Fitzwilliam heritage by her son, Philip Naylor-Leyland, 4th Baronet. Sir <mask> died on 10 January 2005 at Stibbington House, Cambridgeshire, from oesophageal cancer. References

U.S. House of Representatives

Elections

2016
In 2016, <mask> ran for the open U.S. House of Representatives seat of his brother <mask>, who retired from Congress to uphold a promise to limit himself to four terms. In the April 26, 2016, Republican primary, <mask> received 78.4% of the vote, defeating Andy Warren and Marc Duome. Meanwhile, State Representative Steve Santarsiero defeated Shaughnessy Naughton for the Democratic nomination, 59.8% to 40.2%.In the general election, <mask> received 54.4% of the vote, while Santarsiero received 45.6%. 2018
After a court-ordered redistricting, <mask>'s district was renumbered as the 1st district. It remained largely unchanged from the old 8th, but absorbed a larger slice of central Montgomery County. According to Nate Cohn of The New York Times, "the old 8th had been one of the more regularly drawn districts in a map that had been thrown out as an unconstitutional partisan Republican gerrymander. The new 1st was slightly more Democratic than its predecessor. Had it existed in 2016, Hillary Clinton would have carried it with 49 percent of the vote to Donald Trump's 47 percent. In contrast, Clinton and Trump finished almost tied in the old 8th, with Trump winning by 0.2 percentage points."In the Republican primary on May 15, 2018, he defeated Dean Malik by a margin of 68.85% to 31.15%. In the Democratic primary, Scott Wallace won with 55.97% of the vote, defeating Rachel Reddick, who tallied 35.85%, and Steve Bacher, who brought in 8.18%. In the general election, <mask> defeated Democratic nominee Scott Wallace by a margin of 51.3% to 48.7%. He carried Bucks County by 12,000 votes, more than his overall margin of 8,300 votes. <mask> thus became one of only three Republican U.S. Representatives to survive during the 2018 U.S. House elections in congressional districts that Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton carried in 2016, along with Congressmen John Katko (R-NY) and Will Hurd (R-TX). 2020
<mask> ran for a third term in 2020.In the Republican primary, he defeated Andrew Meehan, who ran as a more conservative candidate and a staunch supporter of President Donald Trump. In the general election, his Democratic opponent was Ivyland City Councilwoman Christina Finello. <mask> was considered potentially vulnerable due to the fact that his district had voted for Hillary Clinton in 2016. However, he was ultimately reelected by a margin of 13 percentage points despite Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden winning Pennsylvania and carrying the district by 6 points. He was one of nine House Republicans to win in a district carried by Biden. Tenure
In the first session of the 115th United States Congress, <mask> was ranked the third most bipartisan member of the House of Representatives by the Bipartisan Index, a metric created by The Lugar Center and Georgetown's McCourt School of Public Policy to assess congressional bipartisanship. GovTrack noted that <mask> introduced the most bills among freshman Representatives, and, of the 274 bills he cosponsored, 35% were introduced by a non-Republican legislator.On February 4, 2021, <mask> joined 10 other Republican House members voting with all voting Democrats to strip Marjorie Taylor Greene of her House Education and Labor Committee, and House Budget Committee assignments in response to controversial political statements she had made. On November 5, 2021, <mask> was among the 13 House Republicans who broke with their party and voted with a majority of Democrats in favor of the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, a $1.2 trillion infrastructure spending bill. Climate change

He did not sponsor the 2019 version of the bill. <mask> has a lifetime score of 81% on the National Environmental Scorecard of the League of Conservation Voters, and is ranked as the most environmentally friendly Republican member of the House, rating higher than many Democrats.Gerrymandering
In September 2017, <mask> urged the U.S. Supreme Court to limit extreme partisan gerrymandering in the Gill v. Whitford case. He stressed that partisan redistricting had undermined the Founding Fathers' vision of the House of Representatives remaining the voice of the people. He was the only Republican Congressman from Pennsylvania who did not take part in a February 2018 lawsuit challenging a new district map drawn by Democrats. He explained that he opposes the drawing of congressional districts by elected officials of either party, saying instead that they should be drawn by independent, nonpartisan citizen panels. Gun policy
In 2018, <mask> was the only Republican to receive an endorsement from the Giffords Law Center to Prevent Gun Violence, the gun control organization founded by former U.S. Representative Gabby Giffords. <mask> voted to expand background checks and to restrict assault weapon sales.

On May 4, 2017, <mask> also voted against the second attempt to pass the American Health Care Act. In a statement, he said, "We saw what happened when healthcare reform – an issue impacting 1/5 of our economy – was rushed through Congress along extremely partisan lines in 2009," referring to the ACA in 2010. On December 12, he took part in the Democratic bill to lower drug costs, the Elijah Cummings Lower Drug Costs Now Act.Immigration
In 2017, <mask> was critical of President Obama's executive order establishing the DACA program, but said the immigration system was broken. In a 2018 debate, <mask> said that he supported a path to citizenship for DREAMers, but that "any immigration reform package has to deal with border security." In 2019, he voted for the American Dream and Promise Act, which included no new border security measures. <mask> opposed President Donald Trump's 2017 executive order to impose a temporary ban on entry to the U.S. to citizens of seven Muslim-majority countries. He stated that "the president's policy entirely misses the mark." LGBT rights
<mask> supports same-sex marriage. In 2019, he co-sponsored and voted for the Equality Act, which would extend anti-discrimination protections to LGBT-identifying adults and minors and repealing Title IX; seven other House Republicans joined him in voting for it and it passed the House 236-173.He was one of three Republicans to vote for it in 2021 when it again passed the House.

Gabriel Eduardo "<mask>" <mask> (born October 11, 1979) is an Uruguayan-American musician and entrepreneur. Through late 2015, he was a singer and the primary creative force behind the electronic pop group Cobra Starship. On November 10, 2015, after nearly ten years and two Billboard Hot 100 top 10 hits, Saporta announced that the band would stop its work, and that he would be focusing on helping other musicians through his new venture, The Artist Group. Prior to Cobra Starship, <mask> had been the lead singer, bassist, and lyricist for the punk band Midtown. Early life
<mask> was born in Montevideo, Uruguay. His family is Jewish; his grandparents and great-grandparents escaped Europe during World War II and settled in Uruguay. When he was four years old, he moved with his parents to New York City.At an early age, Saporta developed a passion for music, which became his escape and salvation from a tumultuous upbringing. Saporta fell in love with music because of its ability to deliver messages and connect people. His first love was hip hop, but soon after he discovered punk rock and started going to shows to see bands such as Gorilla Biscuits, Fugazi, and Pavement, it was not long before Saporta, along with his brother Ricky, started to put on his own shows and put out his own records. Career

Career beginnings and Midtown (1998–2005)
When he was 16 years old, Saporta "joined his first band-- the appropriately titled Humble Beginnings" as a bass player. While in college at Rutgers University, he started the pop punk band Midtown. As the vocalist, lyricist, and bassist in Midtown, Saporta attracted widespread attention. The group released one EP and three LP albums: The Sacrifice of Life, Save the World, Lose the Girl, Living Well Is the Best Revenge and Forget What You Know, respectively.Midtown encountered legal troubles with its first label after releasing its second album. It was during this time that Saporta who "was quite the businessman" decided he wanted to understand the music business from the other side and started managing a band named Armor For Sleep. As Armor For Sleep became successful, Saporta made a deal to merge his fledgling company into Crush Management, who would also manage Midtown. Crush later went on to launch Cobra Starship with Saporta. After disbanding, Midtown developed a cult-like following. In response to this renewed interest, Midtown reunited for a secret show in Brooklyn and to headline the Skate & Surf Festival in Asbury Park, NJ in 2014. Cobra Starship (2006–2015)
After Midtown, <mask>a wanted to start a project that was more light-hearted and whose music could incorporate diverse electronic influences.The idea for Cobra Starship came to him during a trip in the Arizona desert in 2005. Saporta produced and recorded the first Cobra album by himself with S*A*M & Sluggo. An early helpful development for Cobra Starship was when Midtown's management company set Saporta up with an opportunity to record a song for the soundtrack to the 2006 action film Snakes on a Plane, which became a minor hit. By 2007, Cobra Starship was a full band and started touring the country. Cobra's eclectic sound allowed them to tour with acts as diverse as 30 Seconds to Mars, Fall Out Boy, and Travie McCoy. They also performed with many electronic acts such as Girl Talk and Kaskade. From 2006 to 2014, Cobra Starship released four full-length albums, and scored two double-platinum Top 10 hits ("Good Girls Go Bad" and "You Make Me Feel"), as well as one gold record for "Hot Mess".Their single "Good Girls Go Bad" features guest vocals by Leighton Meester. Coincidentally, <mask> made his acting debut a few years later in the season 5 finale of Gossip Girl. In 2012, Cobra Starship was the main support for Justin Bieber on his entire South American stadium tour. T∆G // The Artist Group (2015–present)
On his Beats1 Radio show in November 2015, <mask>a announced that he would no longer be performing or putting out new music. <mask> and business associate Mike Carden have announced the formation of a talent management firm, T∆G // The Artist Group, which is expected to commence operations in the first quarter of 2016. <mask> has explained that now he wants to work behind the scenes and help younger artists see their dreams come true. Other work
On June 5, 2010, MTV aired an episode of When I Was 17, which focused on <mask>a and discussed his life as a teenager.Saporta has hosted and been a correspondent for various music-related TV shows including being a presenter at the VMAs, a US correspondent for The EMAs and BBC1, and hosting several countdown shows on Fuse. In March 2013, <mask>a was featured on "Make It Out This Town", the first single by American rapper Eve's fourth album Lip Lock. In 2015, Saporta started working with Beats1 Radio as on-air talent and show host. Beyond music, Saporta's other ventures include restaurants, real estate, and fashion. Personal life
<mask>'s father, <mask>, studied medicine and became a physician in Montevideo. Disenchanted with the then-ineffective and somewhat corrupt health care system in Uruguay, among other reasons, the elder Saporta elected to leave the country with his family in the early 1980s. As a result, he undertook his medical training for a second time in the United States.<mask> has described his father's perseverance as an inspiration. Saporta attended Rutgers University, where he majored in philosophy and political science. In May 2013, Saporta and Erin Fetherston got married. In March 2016, the couple welcomed their first child, a son. Guest vocals
