 were expected to struggle in what was anticipated to be a rebuilding season, with a new scheme and many new players as well as shortened summer practices due to the lockout, <mask> led the team to a 13–3 record in the regular season, winning the NFC West division while finishing second overall in the NFC and bringing the team to the NFC Championship Game. This was the first time the 49ers had made the playoffs since 2002, generating widespread praise. On November 24, <mask> played his brother John and the Baltimore Ravens, losing the Thanksgiving showdown 16–6. John and <mask> are the first pair of brothers to serve as NFL head coaches in the same season. <mask>'s work in San Francisco had resulted in an extremely successful season, revitalizing the career of quarterback Alex Smith and with defensive coordinator Vic Fangio creating one of the leading defensive squads of the 2011 season. The 49ers' season ended with a 20–17 loss in overtime to the eventual Super Bowl champion New York Giants in the NFC Championship Game.At the conclusion of the season, <mask> was named the AP NFL Coach of the Year. 2012 season

In the 2012 season, <mask> resolved a quarterback controversy by replacing incumbent starter Alex Smith with backup Colin Kaepernick. Smith was ranked third in the NFL in passer rating (104.1), led the league in completion percentage (70%), and had been 19–5–1 as a starter under <mask>, while Kaepernick was considered more dynamic with his scrambling ability and arm strength. Smith began 2012 with a 6–2 record as a starter before suffering a concussion in the following game. He missed the following game, and Kaepernick was 16 for 23 for 243 yards with two touchdowns in a 32–7 win over the Chicago Bears. <mask> was impressed with Kaepernick, and said "we have two quarterbacks that have a hot hand" while dismissing any rule that a player should not lose their starting job due to an injury. Smith was medically cleared to play the day before the next game, but <mask> chose not to rush him back and again started Kaepernick, who threw and ran for a touchdown in a 31–21 win over the New Orleans Saints.The following week, <mask> announced that Kaepernick would start for the 8–2–1 49ers, while also stating that the assignment was week-to-week and not necessarily permanent. However, Kaepernick remained the starter for the remainder of the season as the 49ers again qualified for the playoffs. <mask> led the team to an 11–4–1 record in the regular season, winning back to back NFC West titles. <mask>'s quarterback decision was on display in the first game of the playoffs. The 49ers won 45–31 over the Green Bay Packers, as Kaepernick had 444 yards of total offense (263 passing, 181 rushing) and four touchdowns. Kaepernick set the record for rushing yards by a quarterback in any NFL game with his 181-yard outburst against Green Bay. On January 20 in the NFC Championship Game, <mask> led the 49ers to a 28–24 win over the Atlanta Falcons, which sent the 49ers to Super Bowl XLVII, and on February 3, <mask> faced his older brother, John and the Baltimore Ravens in the Super Bowl.It was the first time that the opposing teams' head coaches in the Super Bowl were brothers; the Ravens won the game with a score of 34–31 despite a third quarter comeback by the 49ers. 2013 season

In the 2013 season, <mask> led the 49ers to a 12–4 regular-season record and a third consecutive appearance in both the playoffs and NFC Championship Game, where they lost to the Seattle Seahawks 23–17, who went on to win Super Bowl XLVIII. In doing so, <mask> became the first NFL head coach to reach a conference championship game in each of his first three seasons. 2014 season

The 49ers had an 8–8 season in 2014, failing to reach the playoffs for the first time under the Harbaugh era. On October 5, it was rumored that Harbaugh would not return in 2015 regardless of that season's outcome, though owner Jed York denied the claims at the time. It has been suggested that <mask>, despite his success on the field, was involved in a power struggle with 49ers general manager Trent Baalke starting from the 2013 season onward. On December 28, 2014, the 49ers announced that they had mutually agreed to part ways with <mask> as their head coach.York claims <mask> and the 49ers agreed to mutually part ways immediately after a win over the Arizona Cardinals in the final week of the regular season. <mask>, however, later said: "I didn't leave the 49ers. I felt like the 49er hierarchy left me." He further added that the 49ers informed him that he would no longer be the 49ers coach after suffering a loss on December 14, but that he decided to remain as the team's head coach for the final two games of the season because "I wanted to finish what I started—what we started." <mask> left the 49ers as one of their most successful head coaches in just four years, as well as becoming the first successful NFL head coach to depart for a college team. New head coach <mask> was fired after just one season in which the 49ers finished 5–11. Until the 2019 season, in which the 49ers went 13–3 and advanced to Super Bowl LIV, the 49ers had losing seasons every year following <mask>'s departure.University of Michigan (2015–present)

<mask> (born August 12, 1951 in León, Nicaragua) is a Nicaraguan composer and guitarist. As a child, only 5 years old, <mask>, saw a 48 bass  red HOHNER accordion in the window of Libreria Lehman, in San Jose, Costa Rica, while on Christmas shopping, and he asked his father, to buy it. They went inside, and the salesman showed him the notes of Silent Night. Another salesman suggested to sell a smaller size accordion for children, but <mask>, wanted the one in the window. A couple of days later, on Christmas Day, it mysteriously appeared under the Christmas tree. He surprised his parents, by  playing the notes of Silent Night, that the salesman had showed him, only two days before. Professor Julio Max Blanco, started trying to teach him music theory, back in his native Nicaragua, in January, 1957.Lovo learned to play songs before he could read the notes. And Professor Blanco said, "He can play by ear alone, I give up." <mask> started playing accordion at the Colegio Calazanz, grammar school, at church functions. He learned to play harmonica with Father Caudelli, with the Cub Scouts, an instrument he still plays, in blues style. At school he also sang at the Calasanz Choir, later at the Colegio Centroamerica, boarding school in Granada, Nicaragua, with the Jesuits, he self-taught Hammond B2 organ, and Piano, during long punishment hours in solitary confinement at the music room, since Lovo had become rebellious, and hard to manage. There he created his first Piano composition: 'In the Woods of the Moon', that is recorded in his first 'Terremoto' album later in New Orleans, at Knight Recording Studios. The accordion was left alone when he picked up the guitar, that he learned from his home gardener, and guitar player,  Adan 'Bienvenido' Jaime, then called the Nicaraguan Elvis, who showed him how to play Elvis Presley songs, Nicaraguan and Mexican rock ballads, popular in the early 1960s.He got his first guitar from his uncle 'Chalito', in his native town of Leon, and he learned songs from Enrique Guzman, and The Teen Tops, and from Polidecto Correa, and Los Polimusic, one of the first Nicaraguan Rock Bands. This band featured as drummer, Jose 'Chepito' Areas, future founding member of the Santana Band, famous for opening the Woodstock Rock Festival. <mask> met Chepito Areas playing in the Half Time of a high school basketball game, and it was to be a lifelong musical friendship. He started playing in a rock band, with Ricardo Palma, and Adan Torres, as co-founders of Los Rockets in 1963 and then co-founded Los Juniors, with Emilio Ortega, in 1965. Both  Palma and Ortega, were the top lead guitar players of the Nicaragua rock movement in the 1960s. He also played with Edmundo Guerrero, a local guitar master of the Bossa Nova Brazilian jazz style. Lovo was hijacked on a LANICA airline flight out of Miami, where he almost lost his left hand due to bullet wounds.<mask> survived and later regained the use of his hand. In Managua, he produced the first Rock Concert, Concierto Idolo, at the Teatro Nacional Ruben Dario, in 1972, with an all star band, the members of the best known rock and jazz groups, in Nicaragua. The photo taken at the opening act, playing Mazurka in guitar, appears, as front cover of his album La Gigantona, widely acclaimed, in the tropical jazz category, in Billboard, on November 2012. He is one of the original exponents of Nicaraguan Latin Rock. He recorded an album, Terremoto Richter 6.3 in 1973, in New Orleans, while going to school at L.S.U.,  Baton Rouge, LA. It is a fusion of Nicaraguan-style classic Spanish guitar with New Orleans Jazz and Gospel. His main instrument is guitar, but also plays bass, and keyboards, as well as harmonica.He collaborated in his home town with Chepito Areas, the original percussionist with Santana Band. This connected him with that band. Together they produced the Managua Earthquake Relief concert featuring Mario Moreno AKA 'Cantinflas' in October 1972. After the Nicaraguan Revolution, <mask> moved to the USA. In New Orleans, he got deeper into the blues guitar, influenced by New Orleans musicians and Louisiana blues-men. In Miami, in the late '80s he recorded the song Freedom Fighters with his band "Wolf and The Pack". This song, is a mixture of rock and politics, earned him an invitation to perform at the White House.The Miami Herald front-paged the band, then known as <mask> and Wolf and The Pack, which led to TV interviews with CBS, NBC, ABC and Univision. The Miami PBS Channel 17, WDNA,  dedicated a documentary program directed by Don Webb, to a Lovo interview and featured clips from the network coverage. In Patrick Carr's book Sunshine States, the author titled chapter 7 "The King of Contra Rock" and dedicated it to Lovo. Lovo released La Gigantona, privately,  in 2010, featuring acid Latin jazz music, with an all-star Nicaraguan band, including percussion by Areas. The Chicago-based record label The Numero Group  released Lovo's La Gigantona album to the public, in the fall of 2012. The reissue was sourced from a rare acetate and includes extensive liner notes on <mask>, including historical photos of his musical background. Since its re-release, La Gigantona has been a success and Lovo has been the subject of many reviews and interviews worldwide, including praises from BBC music critic Gilles Peterson radio personality in London, Relix Magazine, Dusted Magazine, Radio Nacional de Colombia,  and many more international stations, and several TV shows.La Gigantona has become a well-known name, and in November 14, it reached # 4 in Billboard, Tropical music category. A new version of Wolf and The Pack has been formed in Miami, with Latin jazz players, and new performances have been seen up to the end of 2012, of La Gigantona, considered a dormant hit record, that has been awakened by Numero Group, the reissue label from Chicago. On June 14, 2014, <mask> was invited to perform at the Rio Loco Festival, in Toulouse, and drew 28,000 fans, performing an updated version of his La Gigantona, his well-known album, with Jose 'Chepito' Areas of Santana Band fame, and a group of Cuban and Venezuelan musicians, and appeared in the French press, as his style, considered a fusion of psychedelic rock and Latin Jazz, is gaining popularity in Europe, Asia, and also in the USA. Lovo, was also featured in Relix Magazine, in 2 occasions, on 2015 and 2016, in the magazine's CD sampler. On May 20, 2016, <mask> performed at the Teatro Nacional Ruben Dario with an all star Nicaraguan Band, Alfonso Lovo Band, which included Chepito Areas, and a 12 piece band. An anthology of all his music was presented, and there was a documentary made of the event. Later on June 3, <mask> and his band on a smaller sextet format, performed in Madrid, Spain, and the iconic club Sala El Sol, and later on June 5, at the Auditorium, of the Escuela de Abogados de Bilbao, in Bilbao Spain.Several interviews, including one by Gladys Palmera Radio, with a Video of performing a live version of Flamenco Immigration Blues, at the Duque de Alba Palacete in Madrid.

<mask> (born 14 March 1975) is an English former professional footballer, and currently first team coach for Newcastle United and goalkeeping coach for the Northern Ireland national team. He is best known for his time playing at Newcastle, having amassed 157 league appearances over a twenty-year period between 1993 and 2013. Although he was not always the first choice goalkeeper at Newcastle, he was the longest-serving player in the club's history. Early life
<mask> was born in Seaham, County Durham. He grew up in the mining village of Easington, County Durham, and studied Sport at the East Durham College. He was interested in football from a young age and goalkeeper Bruce Grobbelaar was his idol. Anfield was the first football ground he went to, where he watched Liverpool win a match 2–0 in the 1982–83 season.<mask> attended Easington Comprehensive School. He was offered a place at Liverpool John Moores University. Career

Newcastle United
In 1993, he was signed by Newcastle United from his local club Seaham Red Star, for a nominal fee. Seen as back-up to first-choice goalkeeper Pavel Srníček after his arrival at Newcastle, and then Shaka Hislop and subsequently Shay Given; he had loan spells at Bradford City, Gateshead, Stockport County, Hartlepool United and Huddersfield Town before making his first-team debut as a half time substitute against Wimbledon in 1998. At this point <mask> achieved the rare feat of making an appearance in each of the top five divisions of the English game. <mask> came close to dislodging Given on numerous occasions, most notably in the 1998–99 season. <mask> played in the 1999 FA Cup Final, when Newcastle lost 2–0 to Manchester United.Then-manager Ruud Gullit appeared to see <mask> worthy of playing over Given. However, at the start of the 1999–2000 season, Gullit resigned and <mask> again became second choice goalkeeper, although he did enjoy another brief period of first team action for part of the season when Given was injured. When Given returned from injury, <mask> was once again used as the back-up goalkeeper. In 2002, he made several appearances in the UEFA Champions League, most notably against Juventus. The match was played at St James' Park and <mask> managed to keep a clean sheet during a 1–0 win over the Italian champions. The victory helped Newcastle qualify from the group stages of the tournament. <mask> has handed in a transfer request in his time with Newcastle, citing lack of regular first team football as his reason (something which Given also did when <mask> kept him out of the team under Gullit).He has been linked with moves to West Bromwich Albion, Celtic, Watford, Rangers, and Liverpool in his time with Newcastle, though none of these purported moves came to fruition. He again expressed his desire to achieve first team football in June 2006, an act which saw then manager Glenn Roeder attempt to persuade <mask> to remain with the club. This appeared to work as he signed a new contract to keep him at St. James' Park until June 2009. An injury to Given early in the 2006–07 season gave <mask> another chance to prove his worth in the first team. However, he did not have the best start to first team action, as Newcastle lost 2–0 to Liverpool on 20 September 2006, in what was <mask>'s first league start for 15 months. The second goal, a 65-yard lob from Xabi Alonso, saw <mask> slip whilst backpedaling to reach it, although he did still attempt to get up and stop it. Despite this setback <mask> gave some excellent performances in the season.One particular moment was his wonderful save against Manchester City in early November. <mask> also received another run in the first team after a third injury to Given later that season, the highlight of this would be keeping a clean sheet against Chelsea, a feat only matched by two other keepers that season. This was the first season <mask> played consecutive league matches since 2001. On 26 July 2007, <mask> came on as a substitute against Celtic in a friendly match and played as a striker – something which has continually come up throughout his career. <mask> continued as Newcastle's goalkeeper at the beginning of the 2007–08 season under the then new boss Sam Allardyce. With Given struggling with a groin injury and rookie Tim Krul on loan at Falkirk, <mask> was able to start the first six league games, keeping two clean sheets. However he lost his place again when Given was fit, though another injury to Given later in the season allowed <mask> to gain more first team appearances under the new boss, and the manager who first brought him to Newcastle, Kevin Keegan.After a series of good performances, <mask> was once again linked with a transfer away from Newcastle. Liverpool expressed an interest in signing him as backup to first-choice goalkeeper Pepe Reina. Keegan reacted to this by stating his intentions to keep <mask>, and acknowledging his record of conceding just once in seven and a half hours of play. <mask> signed a new contract in January 2009, keeping him at Newcastle until 2012, his nineteenth year at the club. During the transfer window of the same month, Given moved to Manchester City, elevating <mask>'s position within the club and so after nearly 16 years, <mask> was finally first-choice goalkeeper at 33 years old. <mask> repaid the management's faith in him by putting in some fine match performances including several world-class saves and was the best goalkeeper in the Championship, keeping a club record 21 clean sheets in 37 matches and conceding 35 goals at less than a goal a game. <mask> made his 50th consecutive league start for Newcastle on 6 March 2010, in the 6–1 win over Barnsley.This was his longest run of consecutive starts he had ever made in his entire career.

Goran "<mask>" <mask> (December 10, 1955 in Vareš, PR Bosnia-Herzegovina, FPR Yugoslavia – January 12, 1994 in Belgrade, Serbia, FR Yugoslavia) was a Bosnian rock drummer, famous for his work with the band Bijelo Dugme. Early life
<mask> was born to father Josip and mother Mirjana in the central Bosnian town of Vareš where his mining engineer father had been assigned for employment by the Yugoslav communist authorities as part of the country's central economic planning. Nicknamed <mask> from an early age, the youngster was raised with an older brother and younger sister Gordana. Move to Sarajevo
The family moved to Sarajevo in 1960 when Ivandić was four. While in elementary school, Ivandić simultaneously attended violin classes at a lower music school. However, soon after completing his final music school exam, he abruptly decided he "no longer wanted to bother with violin". He would soon turn his focus to percussions.In 1970, along with some friends, fourteen-year-old Ivandić founded a music section within the Boško Buha youth centre simply because it was willing to provide free instruments. They named their band Crossroads with Ivandić playing the drums. With the band taking up most of his free time, he started neglecting school and as a result flunked his sophomore year of high school and had to repeat it. He eventually switched to part-time secondary education. Career
In June 1972, Ivandić went on a three-month summer gig in Trpanj as part of a band called Moby Dick. After getting back to Sarajevo in fall 1972, the teenager began receiving offers from groups looking for a drummer and decided to join a band called Rok. Its bandleader, organist , would later, in 1974, establish the hard rock band Teška Industrija on the ashes of Rok.Jutro and Bijelo Dugme
Teenage Ivandić was still drumming in Rok when Jutro's twenty-three-year-old bandleader Goran Bregović became aware of him during late summer 1973. Seeking a replacement for Šento Borovčanin, Bregović immediately presented Ivandić with an offer of joining Jutro which the seventeen-year-old accepted. <mask> thus began the first of his three stints with what would soon become the most popular band in SFR Yugoslavia. Several months later, on New Year's Eve 1974, Jutro changed its name to Bijelo Dugme. After recording two hugely successful albums—1974's Kad bi' bio bijelo dugme and 1975's Šta bi dao da si na mom mjestu—as well as playing the accompanying tours, Ivandić received an early call up to serve the mandatory Yugoslav People's Army stint in October 1976. The call up came at the most inopportune time as the band was getting ready to start recording their third album, but Ivandić had to go nonetheless. Still twenty-years-of-age at the time, he was assigned to a unit stationed in capital city Belgrade.His replacement in the band was Bregović's old companion Milić Vukašinović. After being discharged early from the army due to getting pronounced "temporarily unable to serve", Ivandić rejoined the band during mid 1977. Mired in deep personality clashes amid a shambolic tour featuring less-than-expected attendance, poor musicianship due to lack of practice, equipment problems, and overall organizational issues, Bijelo Dugme somehow completed the tour before reconvening a month later in August 1977 for a triumphant free open-air concert at Hajdučka Česma in Belgrade before 70,000 spectators. Side project with Laza Ristovski, leaving Bijelo Dugme, and drug bust
In early 1978, with Bijelo Dugme on hiatus due to band leader Bregović being away in Niš and serving his own mandatory army stint, Ivandić and Bijelo Dugme keyboardist Laza Ristovski started working on a side project—album titled Stižemo with their act named Laza i Ipe. The material—composed by Ristovski, arranged by Ipe, with lyrics written by Ranko Boban—was recorded in London throughout February and March 1978 featuring <mask>, his sister Gordana Ivandić and Goran Kovačević on vocals, Leb i Sol leader Vlatko Stefanovski on guitar, Zlatko Hold on bass, and Ristovski on keyboards. However, the release date kept getting pushed back due to financing issues as they had problems convincing the Jugoton record label to cover their expenses. Simultaneously, during Bregović's temporary army leaves, the duo—backed up by Bijelo Dugme singer Željko Bebek—initiated multiple internal discussions as they wanted several business matters within the band to be handled differently going forward, specifically writing credits and subsequent revenue sharing.Dissatisfied with Bregović's flat rejection of their demands, Ivandić and Ristovski abandoned Bijelo Dugme altogether in late July 1978 in order to fully commit to their new project. Back on the Laza i Ipe front, the money issues with Jugoton were solved by taking the material over to ZKP RTLJ label while some of the money was obtained through Bijelo Dugme bandmate Zoran Redžić. The album Stižemo ended up being promoted very ambitiously with high quality press material. It was also the first time in Yugoslavia that an album's release was scheduled in advance with the date announced publicly—a widely used marketing practice at the time had been to release an album and then promote it once it's already in stores. Then on September 10, 1978, the day of the album release, while entering his apartment building in Sarajevo, coming back from a walk with his girlfriend, twenty-two-year-old Ivandić was arrested by a plain clothes policeman who said he is taking him in for questioning. Ivandić had been set to leave for Belgrade in a matter of hours where Laza was waiting so they can do promotional activities for the album. Instead, Ivandić got charged with a series of drug offenses along with other individuals.He thus began a long court battle and most of his musical activities got pushed to the back burner. He even sold his drum kit and went back to his university studies, passing a few exams at the University of Sarajevo's Faculty of Political Sciences where he had been enrolled in the journalism program. While awaiting sentencing, Ivandić was under a Yugoslavia-wide shadow ban on public performance that including restrictions on being credited publicly. Bijelo Dugme also publicly distanced themselves from Ivandić, recording their next two studio albums—1979's Bitanga i princeza and 1980's Doživjeti stotu—with Điđi Jankelić on drums. Since the SR Serbia constituent unit mostly didn't enforce his country-wide ban, <mask> began frequently performing there as a session drummer in order to help his finances. He participated in the recording sessions of the twenty-two-year-old Slađana Milošević's 1979 debut album Gorim od želje da ubijem noć in PGP-RTB's studios in Belgrade and furthermore appears in the title track video. Showing Ivandić in several frames of the video at this time was considered controversial in Yugoslavia and reportedly required young Milošević to personally intervene with the television executives.Eventually, <mask> got sentenced by the Sarajevo District Court three-judge council presided over by judge Husein Hubijer to 3 and a half years in prison for "possession of hashish and enabling others to use narcotics". Also sentenced by the council on the same charge were Goran Kovačević to year and a half, Ranko Boban to 1 year. Furthermore, Zlatko Hold got sentenced to six months for obstruction of justice. <mask> appealed the verdict, and his sentence was reduced to 3 years by the Supreme Court of SR Bosnia-Herzegovina. He began serving his punishment at the Zenica correctional facility in early 1981. On February 17, 1981, he got transferred to another prison, in Foča, before getting pardoned some year and a half later for Republic Day 1982 (November 29). Return to Dugme
After being released from prison, Ivandić reportedly immediately travelled to SR Slovenia, spending several weeks with a friend without contacting any of his old professional collaborators.By late December 1982, he got tracked down by Bijelo Dugme's manager Raka Marić and bandleader Bregović who extended an offer of rejoining the band. After initially turning them down, they persisted and several days later <mask> accepted thus beginning his third stint with the band that would last until 1989 when the band dissolved. During the mid-1980s he also recorded two albums, Kakav divan dan and Igre slobode, with his long-time girlfriend . After the albums' recording, Amila moved to London while <mask> stopped all side projects and devoted fully to Bijelo Dugme. It is unclear where he lived after the war started. Most say that he lived in Belgrade but in a 1994 interview for Croatian weekly Globus (conducted days after <mask>'s death), Željko Bebek states Ivandić lived in Vienna, at least at the time they last talked. Personal life
From his early days at Bijelo Dugme during the mid 1970s, Ivandić was in a relationship with Irhada Muhić (later Sulejmanpašić).In the early 1980s, he began a romantic involvement with  (later Welland) whom he also collaborated with musically. The relationship ended in 1988 when she moved to London. In 2018, Sulejmanović released her autobiography Ključ bubnja tama, significant portions of which centre around her musical career in Yugoslavia and relationship with <mask>. In 1988, <mask> began a relationship with Dragana Tešić. The two got married in 1990 following the premature end of Bijelo Dugme's 1989 tour that would eventually turn out to be the band's last activity. The couple's son Filip was born in Sarajevo in 1991. On January 12, 1994, <mask> fell from the 6th floor of Belgrade's Metropol Hotel and died.It is generally believed that it was a suicide, but Bebek in the same interview says he has trouble believing it based on his prior knowledge of <mask> and his habits.

In May 2009, Senators Ted Kennedy and John Kerry recommended <mask> to President Obama for the vacant United States Attorney position in the District of Massachusetts. On September 18, Obama nominated <mask> for the position. On November 5, the United States Senate confirmed her appointment by unanimous consent. <mask> was both the first woman and the first Hispanic to serve as United States Attorney for the District of Massachusetts. <mask> was rebuffed in several harshly worded rulings by judges on cases brought by her office.These cases were accused of "stretching the evidence" and "gross exaggeration" by federal judge Judith Dein, an "overkill" and "unusual prosecution" by federal judge Douglas Woodlock and being "over the top" by federal judge Nancy Gertner. White collar cases

In 2011, <mask>'s office was responsible for the prosecution of GlaxoSmithKline general counsel Lauren Stevens. Ultimately, the court dismissed the case, ruling that "it would be a miscarriage of justice to permit this case to go to the jury." On March 23, 2012, <mask>'s office secured grand jury indictments against former state Probation Commissioner John J. O’Brien and two of his former deputies, Elizabeth Tavares and William Burke III, for their involvement in running a sham hiring system in which friends and family members of legislators and politically connected job seekers were hired over more qualified applicants. Each faces one count of racketeering conspiracy and 10 counts of mail fraud for sending rejection letters to applicants they knew they were never going to consider. If convicted, they face up to 20 years in prison on each of the 11 counts. <mask> said the indictments are “one step in an ongoing investigation.”

In 2015, <mask> was expected to pursue $1.1 million 'Insider Trading' scam involving two Indian Americans Iftikar Ahmed & Amit Kanodia which involved sharing of insider information leading to illegal gains in the NYSE.Whitey Bulger case

<mask>'s office led the prosecution of mobster Whitey Bulger. On July 6, 2011, Bulger was arraigned in federal court. He pleaded not guilty to 48 charges, including 19 counts of murder, extortion, money laundering, obstruction of justice, perjury, narcotics distribution and weapons violations. <mask>'s office also led the prosecution of Bulger's girlfriend Catherine Greig. In March 2012, Greig plead guilty to conspiracy to harbor a fugitive, identity fraud, and conspiracy to commit identity fraud. On June 12, 2012, she was sentenced to eight years' confinement in a federal penitentiary. Terrorism and drug cases

<mask> led the prosecution of American pharmacist Tarek Mehanna, who was accused of, among other crimes, translating and posting online materials described by prosecutors as Al Qaeda propaganda.Mehanna's lawyers argued that he never tried to join an armed group and never tried to hurt anyone, and that his internet activities were protected under the U.S. First Amendment. In April 2012, Mehanna was sentenced in federal court in Boston on four terrorism-related charges and three others related to lying to agents of the FBI and other U.S. federal officials. <mask> came under fire after her office was involved in the January 19, 2013 arrest of a man who reportedly "looks very much like" a wanted drug suspect. The man was released by a federal magistrate the following day after prosecutors admitted "significant doubt" that the arrested man was indeed the suspect. Donald Gonczy case
<mask> was "admonished by a federal appeals court in 2004 for advocating a harsher jail term for a fraud defendant than she had promised him in a plea-bargain agreement." In a plea deal, <mask> had agreed to leniency, but she "substantively argued" for a harsher sentence. The Appeals Court ruled that <mask> "violated the plea agreement it entered into with Gonczy," and it vacated the sentence.Motel Caswell confiscation case
<mask>'s office sought to confiscate the Motel Caswell in Tewksbury, Massachusetts from its owner, Russ Caswell. Prosecutors contended that, despite the fact that Caswell himself had never been charged with any crime, his property was subject to civil forfeiture as a long-term site of criminal activity. <mask>'s spokeswoman said "The government believed that this was an important case, not only for the town of Tewksbury, which has been plagued for decades by the criminal activity at Motel Caswell, but because of the important deterrent message it sends to others who may turn a blind eye to crime occurring at their place of business." The property had been the location of 15 drug crimes between 1994 and 2008, which Caswell said is small considering that he rents about 14,000 rooms per year. Caswell was represented by the Institute for Justice, a non-profit libertarian public interest law firm that frequently intervenes in asset forfeiture cases. On January 24, 2013, U.S. Magistrate Judge Judith Dein sided with Caswell. In a written decision, Dein dismissed the government's forfeiture action, ruling that Caswell, "who was trying to eke out an income from a business located in a drug-infested area that posed great risks to the safety of him and his family, took all reasonable steps to prevent crime.The Government’s resolution of the crime problem should not be to simply take his Property." In the ruling, the court criticized the prosecution for "stretching the evidence" and engaging in "gross exaggeration." After considering an appeal, her office announced that in March 2013 that they would not pursue the matter further. Prosecution of Aaron Swartz

<mask>'s office prosecuted  computer programmer and Internet activist Aaron Swartz. In 2011, Swartz was arrested for unauthorized, bulk downloading of free articles from internet archive JSTOR, in violation of the JSTOR's terms of use. In a 2011 press release announcing Swartz's indictment on  federal charges, <mask> said "Stealing is stealing whether you use a computer command or a crowbar, and whether you take documents, data or dollars. It is equally harmful to the victim whether you sell what you have stolen or give it away."After State Prosecutors dropped their charges, federal prosecutors filed a superseding indictment adding nine more felony counts, which increased Swartz's maximum criminal exposure to 50 years of imprisonment and $1 million in fines. The prosecution brought by <mask> involved what was characterized by numerous critics such as former White House Counsel John Dean as "overcharging" and "overzealous" prosecution for the alleged computer crimes. In all, prosecutors charged Swartz with 13 felony counts, despite the fact that both MIT and JSTOR had chosen not to pursue civil litigation; he faced 30 years' imprisonment. Swartz committed suicide on January 11, 2013, before the case came to trial. More than 60,000 people petitioned the White House to remove <mask> from office for "overreach." On January 15, 2013, following his suicide, all charges against Swartz were dropped. The next day, <mask> issued a statement saying that her office had never intended to seek maximum penalties against Aaron Swartz.However, the same day, <mask>'s husband, IBM executive Tom Dolan, scolded the Swartz family for issuing a statement criticizing the prosecutors and MIT. He rationalized: "Truly incredible that in their own son's obit, they blame others for his death and make no mention of the 6-month offer." Esquire writer Charlie Pierce replied, "the glibness with which her husband and her defenders toss off a 'mere' six months in federal prison, low-security or not, is a further indication that something is seriously out of whack with the way our prosecutors think these days." Massachusetts Lawyers Weekly published an op-ed piece by Massachusetts criminal defense attorney Harvey Silverglate about the case. He said attorneys familiar with the case had told him the Middlesex County District Attorney's office had planned for Swartz's case to be "continued without a finding, with Swartz duly admonished and then returned to civil society to continue his pioneering electronic work in a less legally questionable manner." "Under such a disposition," Silverglate later told CNET's Declan McCullagh, "the charge is held in abeyance ("continued") without any verdict ("without a finding"). The defendant is on probation for a period of a few months up to maybe a couple of years at the most; if the defendant does not get into further legal trouble, the charge is dismissed, and the defendant has no criminal record.This is what the lawyers expected to happen when Swartz was arrested. But then the feds took over...." "Tragedy intervened," Silverglate wrote, "when <mask>'s office took over the case to send 'a message'." Boston's WBUR reported in February 2013 that <mask> was expected to testify before the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform's probe into the handling of the Aaron Swartz case. The Department of Justice gave a private briefing about the case to the House Committee, and subsequently, in March 2013, Attorney General Eric Holder defended <mask>'s aggressive prosecution before the Senate Judiciary Committee, terming it "a good use of prosecutorial discretion." In January 2015, two years after Swartz's death, the White House declined to act on the petition to remove <mask> from office. Boston Marathon bombings

<mask>'s office led the investigation into the Boston Marathon bombing. On June 27, 2013, <mask> unveiled a grand jury's 30-count indictment against suspect Dzhokhar Tsarnaev.On July 10, 2013, Tsarnaev pleaded not guilty to all charges. On August 8, 2013, two of Tsarnaev's friends were indicted on federal obstruction of justice charges. Another <mask> prosecution, this time of Tamerlan's friend Khairullozhon Matanov who pleaded guilty rather than face 20 years in prison, has been described as overzealous. Martin Gottesfeld case

In 2017 <mask> was prosecuting Gottesfeld under the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act for taking the Boston Children's Hospital website down during an online donation drive to protest the hospital's treatment of Justina Pelletier. Pelletier was taken from her family by the hospital under a controversial Massachusetts law. Martin Gottesfeld claimed responsibility for an attack by Anonymous that prevented the Boston Children's Hospital (and other treatment facilities) from receiving donations for limited period of time with denial-of-service attacks that briefly prevented access to a public website or server. He has been held for trial since February 2016 and had reported that he was on a hunger strike and claimed that he had been put in solitary confinement as punishment for the hunger strike.Teamsters Picketing/Extortion Case
In 2014 <mask> prosecuted 5 Teamsters activists for picketing the Bravo Network show Top Chef for extortion and racketeering in response to their picketing the show for not hiring union drivers. 4 of the 5 charged were acquitted, with the remaining member pleading guilty to lesser charges. Recognition
In 2011, the Boston Globe named her "Bostonian of the Year" for her prosecution of "corruption and white-collar crime". Boston magazine labeled her the third most powerful person in Boston in 2012 for her successful corruption prosecutions of former Speaker of the Massachusetts House of Representatives Salvatore DiMasi, former state Senator Dianne Wilkerson, and former Boston City Councilor Chuck Turner. Personal life
<mask> has two daughters and is married to IBM executive Thomas J. Dolan; her first husband, Michael Vittorio Morisi, died in 2000. <mask> reportedly considered a campaign for Governor of Massachusetts, but she denied interest in such a run. This decision also came on the heels of the unpopular Swartz prosecution, with other critics describing <mask>'s professional record as marked by a "hands-off leadership style" and "overzealousness."References

<mask> of Hackeborn (1240/1241 – 19 November 1298) was a Saxon Christian saint (from what is now Germany) and a Benedictine nun. She was famous for her musical talents, gifted with a beautiful voice. At the age of 50, Mechtilde went through a grave spiritual crisis, as well as physical suffering. In the modern Benedictine calendar, her feast is celebrated on the anniversary of her death, November 19. She died in the convent of Helfta, near Eisleben. Birth and Baptism

Born Matilda von Hackeborn-Wippra, in 1240 or 1241, she belonged to one of the noblest and most powerful Thuringian families; her sister was the illustrious Abbess Gertrude of Hackeborn. The family of Hackeborn belonged to a dynasty of Barons in Thuringia who were related to the Hohenstaufen family and had possessions in northern Thuringia and in the Harz Mountains.Some writers have considered that <mask> von Hackeborn and <mask> von Wippra were two distinct persons, but, as the Barons of Hackeborn were also Lords of Wippra, it was customary for members of that family to take their name indifferently from either, or both of these estates. So fragile was she at birth, that the attendants, fearing she might die unbaptized, hurried her off to the priest who was just then preparing to say Mass. He was reported as a person of "great sanctity," and after baptizing the child, is reported to have made a statement to this effect, judged by some to be prophetic: "What do you fear? This child most certainly will not die, but she will become a saintly religious in whom God will work many wonders, and she will end her days in a good old age." Early life
When Mechtilde was seven years old, having been taken by her mother on a visit to her elder sister Gertrude, at that time a nun in the Cistercian monastery in Rodersdorf, she became so enamoured of the cloister that her pious parents yielded to her requests and allowed her to enter the alumnate. Here, being highly gifted in mind as well as in body, she made remarkable progress in virtue and learning. Ten years later (1258) she followed her sister, who, now abbess, had transferred the monastery to an estate at Helfta given her by her brothers Louis and Albert.As a nun, Mechtilde was soon distinguished for her humility, her fervour, and that extreme amiability which had characterized her from childhood and which, like piety, seemed almost hereditary in her clan. She joined the convent and eventually became the headmistress of the convent school. Mechtilde was employed in the convent looking after the library, illuminating scripts, and writing her own texts in Latin. Mechtilde wrote many prayers. In 1261, the abbess committed to her care a child of five who was destined to shed glory and fame upon the monastery of Helfta. This was Gertrude who in later generations became known as Gertrude the Great. Musical and spiritual gifts
She was famous for her musical talents and was called the “Nightingale of Helfta”.Gifted with a beautiful voice, Mechtilde also possessed a special talent for rendering the solemn and sacred music over which she presided as domina cantrix. All her life she held this office and trained the choir with indefatigable zeal. Indeed, divine praise was the keynote of her life as it is of her book; in this she never tired, despite her continual and severe physical sufferings, so that in his revelations Christ was wont to call her his "nightingale". Souls thirsting for consolation or groping for light sought her advice; learned Dominicans consulted her on spiritual matters. At the beginning of her own mystic life it may have been from Mechtilde that Gertrude the Great learnt that the marvellous gifts lavished upon her were from God. Revelations
The Lord would say to Mechtild: "Everything you have and by which you can please Me you have from Me and through Me." In one extraordinary vision she perceived that "the smallest details of creation are reflected in the Holy Trinity by means of the Humanity of Christ, because it is from the same earth that produced Them that Christ drew His Humanity."While Julian of Norwich (1342 - about 1416) is the most famous English author to employ the idea of God as mother, the concept did not originate with her. Anselm of Canterbury (1033-1109) had already fostered devotion to 'our Lord, our Mother' in his widely used Orationes. The Cistercians and Carthusians spread it by the use of these prayers in their monasteries; and women such as Marguerite d'Oyngt (d. 1310 ) and Mechthild of Hackeborn took it up. In the description of her visions Mechthild von Hackeborn appears throughout as a person of even temper and great sweetness of disposition. In her revelations Christ, the Virgin, and other members of the hierarchy of heaven enter as living realities. She is particularly fond of the angels, whom she loves to picture as the associates of men on earth and in heaven. Devotion of the Three Hail Marys
Mechtilde was distressed over her eternal salvation and prayed that the Most Holy Virgin would assist her at the hour of death.The Blessed Virgin appeared to her and reassured her, saying: "Yes, I will! But I wish, for your part, that you recite three Hail Marys every day, remembering in the first the Power received from the Eternal Father, in the second the Wisdom received from the Son, with the third one the Love that has filled the Holy Spirit". The Blessed Virgin taught her to pray and to understand especially how the three Hail Marys honor the three persons of the Trinity. Devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus
Mechthilde and Gertrude of Helfta, became ardent devotees and promoters of Jesus’ Heart after It was the Subject of many of their visions. The idea of hearing the Heartbeat of God was very important to medieval saints who nurtured devotion to the Sacred Heart. Women such as Mechtilde and Gertrude (d. 1302) perceived Jesus’ Heart as the breast of a mother. Just as a mother gives milk to nourish her child, so Jesus in the Eucharist gives us His Life Blood.In one vision, Mechtilde reported that Jesus said, "In the morning let your first act be to greet My Heart and to offer Me your own. Whoever breathes a sigh toward Me, draws Me to himself." One of the visions recounted by Mechtilde states that Jesus having appeared to her, commanded her to love him ardently, and to honor his Sacred Heart in the Blessed Sacrament as much as possible. He gave her his Sacred Heart as a pledge of his love, as a place of refuge during her life and as her consolation at the hour of her death. From this time Mechtilde had an extraordinary devotion to the Sacred Heart, and she received such great graces from it that she was accustomed to say that if she had to write down all the favors and all the blessings which she had received by means of this devotion, a large book would not contain them. In another, Jesus himself recommended the Gospel. Opening to her the Wound of His Most Gentle Heart, he said to her: "Consider how great is My Love: If you want to know It well, you will not find It expressed more clearly anywhere than in the Gospel.No one has ever expressed stronger or more tender feelings than these: As My Father has loved Me, so have I loved you (John 15:9)". Her accounts of these visions were later compiled in the Liber Specialis Gratiae. The Book of Special Grace
At the age of 50, Mechtilde went through a grave spiritual crisis, as well as physical suffering. She learned that two nuns in whom she had especially confided had noted down the spiritual favours granted her. Much troubled at this, Mechthilde first had recourse to prayer. She had a vision of Christ holding in his Hand the book of her revelations, and saying: "All this has been committed to writing by My Will and Inspiration; and, therefore you have no cause to be troubled about it." He also told her that he wished this book to be called The Book of Special Grace (Liber specialis gratiae) because it would prove such to many.When she understood that the book would tend to God's glory, she ceased to be troubled, and even corrected the manuscript herself. Some authorities believe that one of the authors was Gertrude the Great. Immediately after her death it was made public, and copies were rapidly multiplied, owing chiefly to the widespread influence of the Friars Preachers. Boccaccio tells how, a few years after the death of Mechtilde, the book of her revelations was brought to Florence and popularized under the title of La Laude di donna Matelda, promoting the devotion to the Divine Mercy of the Sacred Heart of Jesus. It is related that the Florentines were accustomed to repeat daily before their sacred images the praises learned from Mechtilde's book. Gertrude to whose devotedness we owe the Liber Specialis Gratiae exclaims: "Never has there arisen one like to her in our monastery; nor, alas! I fear, will there ever arise another such!"Four centuries later, printed chapbooks in the emblem style had made the devotion so widespread in Europe, even in lands where the Protestant reformed churches were in the ascendency, that it was elevated under this name to a universal feast on the liturgical calendar with Mass and Office proper composed by the French cleric John Eudes. (Another female religious Mary Margaret Alacoque spread the devotion among urban illiterate lay faithful of France with numerous testimonies of her supernatural visions of Christ's passion imagined as an inflamed pierced heart, encircled with thorns.) Mechtilde died in the Monastery of Helfta, on November 19, 1298. Her feast is celebrated on the anniversary of her death. With that of Gertrude, the body of Mechtildis most likely still reposes at Old Helfta, though the exact spot is unknown. Dante's Donna Matelda
Critics have long been perplexed as to one of the characters introduced by Dante in his Purgatorio under the name of Matelda. After ascending seven terraces of Mount Purgatory, on each of which the process of purification is carried on, Dante, in Canto xxvii, hears a voice singing: "Venite, benedicti patris mei"; then later, in Canto xxviii, there appears to him on the opposite bank of the mysterious stream a lady, solitary, beautiful, and gracious.To her Dante addresses himself; she it is who initiates him into secrets, which it is not given to Virgil to penetrate, and it is to her that Beatrice refers Dante in the words: "Entreat Matilda that she teach thee this." Mechtilde's model of the soul's ascent provided the inspiration for his poetic treatment of the Mountain of Purgatory's seven terraces, one for each virtue (or more accurately one each for the purging—or detachment from—each of the seven vices) at the top of which she appears in his closing cantos of the second book of his Divine Comedy. Most commentators have identified Matilda with the warrior-Countess of Tuscany, the spiritual daughter and dauntless champion of Pope Gregory VII, but all agree that beyond the name the two have little or nothing in common. In more places than one the revelations granted to the mystics of Helfta seem in turn to have become the inspirations of the Florentine poet. All writers on Dante recognize his indebtedness to Augustine of Hippo, the Pseudo-Dionysius, Bernard of Clairvaux, and Richard of St. Victor. These are precisely the writers whose doctrines had been most assimilated by the mystics of Helfta, and thus they would the more appeal to the sympathies of the poet. Dante could not have been a stranger to a book which was so popular among his fellow-citizens.The Purgatorio was finished between 1314 and 1318, or 1319—just about the time when Mechtilde's book was popular. This interpretation is supported by the fact that Mechtilde in her Book of Special Grace (pt. I, c. xiii) describes the place of purification under the same figure of a seven-terraced mountain. For another among many points of resemblance between the two writers compare Purgatorio, Canto xxxi, where Dante is drawn by Matelda through the mysterious stream with pt. II, c. ii. of the Liber Specialis Gratiae. Many scholars, however, deem it more likely that the figure of Matelda in Dante's Divine Comedy had been inspired by the mystic Mechthild of Magdeburg.Legacy
There is a gilded wooden statue of Mechtilde of Hackborn at the side chapel dedicated to St. Scholastica in the Benedictine Abbey church at Tyniec, Poland. Dressed in a monastic habit, she wears a cross indicating that she is an abbess. The Sisters of St. Benedict's of Ferdinand, Indiana, sponsor a "Mechtilde of Hackeborn Sacred Music Series", supported through an endowment established by the Verkamp Family in honor of Sister Mary Aquin and Sister Mary Ann Verkamp. In 2018, The Episcopal Church added both Mechtilde and Gertrude to their calendar of saints by including them in Lesser Feasts and Fasts. See also

<mask> MBE, OA (24 January 1916 – 28 February 2017) was an Australian pioneer in the care and education of children with cerebral palsy. Early life and education
<mask> was born to Cecil and <mask> on 24 January 1916 in the Pinnaroo Hospital; Pinnaroo, South Australia. Her grandfather and father owned farming lands in Pinnaroo. In 1919, she moved with her parents and elder sister Marjorie to the township of Crystal Brook, where Marjorie and <mask> commenced school. <mask>'s younger siblings Betty Christina ("Chris"), Donald and Denise were born at the Crystal Brook Hospital. In 1927, the family moved to North Unley, a suburb of Adelaide. <mask> and her sister Chris attended a private school, Fairford House.After passing the Qualifying Certificate Examination of Grade 7, <mask> entered the Methodist Ladies College (which became Annesley College in 1977). As a result of The Great Depression, and the death of Ruby in 1931, most of the family moved to the farming property at Pinnaroo, while <mask> remained in Adelaide. In 1933 <mask> commenced her three-year kindergarten and primary school teaching training at the Methodist Ladies College. Early career

In February 1936, after graduation, <mask> commenced in a single teacher position with a family at the Tapio Subsidised School, in the Broken Hill Inspectorate of the New South Wales Education Department. She commenced with three students from the Barnfield family of the Tapio Station. They were later joined by one more student. In 1942, she took up a position as a teacher in residence at Woodlands Church of England Girls' Grammar School, working with both the kindergarten and lower school.Due in part to her late mother having suffered from poliomyelitis (or infantile paralysis, as it was then known), <mask> was interested in working with sick or disadvantaged children. In 1945, she commenced employment at the Spastic Centre at the Royal Children's Hospital in Melbourne, Victoria. There Gum worked with children with cerebral palsy; attending the weekly clinics of Dame Jean Macnamara, a specialist in the treatment and care of children with cerebral palsy. During her tenure in Melbourne, <mask> resided in the Presbyterian Ladies College boarding house in East Melbourne. In 1946, at the request of Mr Norman Taylor, the then president of The Crippled Children's Association of South Australia (now known as Novita Children's Services), <mask> returned to Adelaide to establish a centre for the care of children with cerebral palsy, becoming the Director of the Spastic Centre. In Adelaide, she returned to Woodlands Church of England Girls' Grammar School ("Woodlands") in residence, again taking charge of the Junior Boarding House in the evenings, while devoting her days to her new work. "The Centre", as it was then known, was established in the then Adelaide Children's Hospital, officially opening on 6 March 1946.The Centre used one room in the first-floor  Outpatients' Department. As the lifts were old and unreliable, at times pupils were carried up and down the stairs. In 1948  <mask> left Woodlands; taking  up residence nearer to the Adelaide Children's Hospital and concentrating wholly on her work for The Crippled Children's Association of South Australia. On 3 November 1949, the Centre moved to a prefabricated building of three rooms which had been purchased in Kermode Street, North Adelaide. Ashford House

The Centre remained in North Adelaide until 1951, when The Crippled Children's Association of South Australia purchased Ashford House and its property of one and one half acres on Anzac Highway, Ashford with assistance from the South Australian government. The buildings at Kermode Street were dismantled and rebuilt in the grounds of Ashford House. In 1955, <mask> took twelve months leave of absence to study and to visit relevant schools and centres overseas.Around 1956, the school was renamed Ashford House School for Cerebral Palsied Children. School colours of green and silver (green and grey for school uniforms) were chosen. The school motto, "Animo et Fide", meaning 'with Courage and Faith" was worked into a school badge. House names – Schweitzer, Wilberforce, Shaftesbury, Flynn, Sturt and Nightingale – were employed instead of grades. The dismantled and rebuilt prefabricated buildings remained The Ashford Spastic Centre until 1960, when the proceeds of a Channel Nine television telethon were donated to the Spastic Centre. This support, with a government subsidy, was used to build a permanent school, the first sod being turned on 7 July 1961. In 1960 the Ashford House Activity Centre – a therapeutic learning centre for teenagers and young adults, planned by the medical director, Dr Ralph Horton – had been built and was opened by the then premier, Sir Thomas Playford.In September 1966 <mask> attended the Tenth World Congress of the International Society for Rehabilitation of the Disabled in Wiesbaden, Germany; also touring facilities in other countries. In August 1968, <mask> resigned her position. New Guinea and Beyond

Due to her interest in the children of New Guinea, <mask> was appointed to work in the Methodist Overseas Mission school in Raluana, New Britain, New Guinea. In the following year she was appointed to the school at Halis, New Ireland, New Guinea, where she worked with three New Guinean teachers and one trainee student in the village two miles away. In English lessons in New Guinea, <mask> used the "Words in Colour" reading charts which she and others had pioneered at the Ashford Centre. Around 1971, <mask> was asked by Miss Ruth Watts, headmistress of the Methodist Ladies College, to take on a temporary position at the school. The position became permanent and Ms <mask> again used the pioneering "Words in Colour" system.In 1975, at the age of 60 years, <mask> completed her last years as a teacher with a double Grade 7 group in a large open classroom, term-teaching with two other teachers. Post-retirement

In 1975, <mask> returned to New Guinea to share the "One Hundred Years in the Islands" celebration. From 1976, she pursued various interests including chess, sketching, the Methodist Ladies' College Old Scholar's Association committee (including a time as president during 1979–80), university lectures, a world tour and time spent in Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador with her nephew, Geoff Renner, Director of World Vision in the Latin American Countries of Central and South America. Gum became involved in the work of Marjorie Black House on King William Road, Unley, a voluntary organisation meeting place and support centre for people with mental health issues. In 1982, <mask> became chair and co-ordinator of the work of Marjorie Black House, when it was threatened with closure. <mask>'s Tuesday Club, the last of the Marjorie Black clubs to close, held its final gathering on 16 August 2005. She participated in the transfer of the building to the South Australian Council of Social Service.She committed her Mondays to the Patchell Library Historical Centre at Annesley College, where she has, since the early 1970s, participated in the collection of and care of the college memorabilia. On 27 May 2013, <mask> attended the unveiling ceremony of the Daphne Gum Playground at the Annesley Junior School. Until 2015, she lived independently, close to Ashford House, which is now a school for children with autism. On 24 January 2016, she celebrated her 100th birthday with family and friends. Gum died in February 2017 at the age of 101. Publications

<mask> (born November 30, 1982) is a Canadian-American  former professional ice hockey right winger. He had played for the Buffalo Sabres and the Minnesota Wild of the National Hockey League (NHL). Playing career

Amateur
As a youth, Pominville played in the 1995 and 1996 Quebec International Pee-Wee Hockey Tournaments with minor ice hockey teams from Repentigny, Quebec and Rive-Nord. <mask> played junior hockey for the Shawinigan Cataractes of the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League (QMJHL). In his fourth and final year with Shawinigan, 2001–02, he amassed 121 points in 66 games – seventh in league scoring – and was awarded the Frank J. Selke Memorial Trophy as the league's most gentlemanly player. Professional

Buffalo Sabres
Pominville was drafted 55th overall in the second round by the Buffalo Sabres in the 2001 NHL Entry Draft. He played for the Sabres' minor league affiliate, the Rochester Americans of the American Hockey League (AHL), until the 2005–06 season, when he earned a roster spot with Buffalo.To begin the 2005–06 campaign, <mask> had initially been waived by the Sabres. Clearing waivers, he continued to play in the minors until he was called up a few months into the season. He scored his first NHL goal on November 27, 2005 – a powerplay goal against Olaf Kölzig in a 3–2 win against the Washington Capitals. Pominville quickly became an integral part of the Sabres line-up and finished the rest of the season with the Sabres with 18 goals in 57 games. In the 2006 playoffs, he recorded a hat-trick in Game 2 of the first round against the Philadelphia Flyers. Later in the Sabres' playoff run, he scored the series-clinching goal in the second round against the Ottawa Senators – a shorthanded effort in overtime of Game 5. It marked the first time in NHL history that a playoff series was decided by an overtime shorthanded goal.Buffalo announcer Rick Jeanneret marked this occasion with a call that is now famous in Buffalo hockey lore: "Oh, now do you believe? Now do you believe? These guys are good, scary good!" The Sabres had qualified as the fourth seed in the playoffs after failing to qualify the previous three seasons. After improving to 68 points the following season, <mask> made a name for himself in 2007–08. He scored at nearly a point-per-game with 80 points in 82 games. In the absence of departed co-captains Chris Drury and Daniel Brière from the previous season, the Sabres utilized a rotating captaincy during the 2007–08 season; <mask> was named captain for the months of March and April.At the end of the season, he was nominated for the Lady Byng Memorial Trophy as the league's most sportsmanlike player, along with Pavel Datsyuk and Martin St. Louis; the honour was awarded to Datsyuk. On September 18, 2008, the Sabres acknowledged Pominville's rise to prominence and signed him to a five-year, $26.5 million contract extension (taking effect in 2009–10). His existing contract saw him make just over $1 million per season. On October 13, 2010, his consecutive start streak of 335 games was broken because of the concussion he had received from Chicago Blackhawks defensemen Niklas Hjalmarsson (who was suspended two games for the illegal hit) in the previous game on October 11, 2010, when he was checked into the boards head first and then removed from the ice in a stretcher. On October 6, 2011, in Helsinki, Finland, Pominville was named permanent Sabres captain. He became the 16th full-time captain in Sabres team history. While captain of the Sabres, he filmed a video for the You Can Play campaign, which aims to reduce homophobia in sport.With the lockout postponing the beginning of the 2012–13 season, <mask> signed his first European contract on a temporary basis with German club Adler Mannheim of the Deutsche Eishockey Liga on November 30, 2012. <mask> produced 12 points in just seven games for the Eagles before returning to prepare for the Sabres' season opener. Minnesota Wild
With the Sabres enduring a largely unsuccessful season and with the intentions to revamp the roster, <mask>, along with a 2014 fourth-round pick, were traded to the Minnesota Wild in exchange for Johan Larsson, Matt Hackett, a 2013 first-round pick and 2014 second-round pick on April 3, 2013. With the Wild, <mask> recorded nine points in ten regular season games. During the 2013–14 season, he scored 30 goals and 30 assists for 60 points to lead the Wild in scoring. Return to Buffalo
On June 30, 2017, <mask> returned to the Sabres in a trade that sent him, Marco Scandella and a 2018 fourth-round pick to Buffalo in exchange for Tyler Ennis, Marcus Foligno and a 2018 third-round pick. On November 1, 2018, Pominville played in his 1,000 career NHL game.He recorded a goal in a 4–2 loss to the Ottawa Senators. The next game, following a pregame ceremony by the Sabres to commemorate his milestone, <mask> recorded two goals and an assist in a 9–2 win over the Senators. The Sabres did not renew <mask>'s contract during the 2019 offseason. He spent the year in Buffalo, playing in beer leagues. In a June 2020 interview, it was stated that <mask>'s playing career had ended. Personal life
