 inherited his father's peerage and marquisate as the Marquis of Shaoling (邵陵侯), while the other five also had their own marquis titles and marquisates. In 239, before <mask> died, he appointed <mask> and Sima Yi as regents for his underage adopted son, <mask>, who succeeded him as the third emperor of Wei. In 249, Sima Yi staged a coup d'état against <mask> and successfully seized power from him.After the coup d'état, <mask> and his brothers were convicted of treason and executed along with their entire families. In Romance of the Three Kingdoms
<mask> appears as a character in the 14th-century historical novel Romance of the Three Kingdoms, which romanticises the historical figures and events before and during the Three Kingdoms period. He makes a late first appearance in Chapter 84 when he accompanies <mask> on a campaign against Eastern Wu. <mask> starts to play a more important role from Chapter 91 onwards when the Shu regent Zhuge Liang launches the Northern Expeditions against Wei. His contributions in the series of battles against Shu are largely downplayed because the author, Luo Guanzhong, wanted to accentuate Sima Yi's resourcefulness and effectively portray him as Zhuge Liang's nemesis. Luo Guanzhong even attributed <mask>'s death to his failure to heed Sima Yi's forewarning of a Shu offensive. In Chapter 100, Sima Yi warns <mask> that Shu forces will, within the next ten days, launch an attack on Mount Qi (祁山; the mountainous regions around present-day Li County,

 Gansu), a strategic location which would allow further incursions into the Wei heartland.After <mask> refuses to believe Sima Yi, the two make a bet and each of them leads half of the Wei army to guard the valleys to the east and west of Mount Qi. <mask> prepares for battle halfheartedly as he thinks that he is right. Seven days later, when his scouts report that a small number of Shu soldiers are approaching the valley, <mask> sends his subordinate Qin Liang (秦良) to lead 5,000 men to survey the terrain. As Qin Liang and his men travel deeper into the valley, they fall into an ambush by Shu forces led by Liao Hua and Guan Xing and are completely destroyed. The Shu forces then disguise themselves by wearing the Wei soldiers' armour and uniform and infiltrate <mask>hen's camp. In the meantime, Sima Yi encounters and defeats Shu forces led by Wei Yan. When he learns that no enemy forces have been spotted at <mask>'s side, he immediately leads his troops to <mask>'s camp.By then, the Shu infiltrators have launched a surprise attack within <mask>'s camp. Sima Yi shows up in time, drives back the Shu forces, and saves <mask>. <mask> feels so ashamed of himself that he falls sick. Zhuge Liang writes a letter to <mask> to taunt and insult him. <mask> becomes so angry after reading the letter that he coughs blood and dies that night in his camp. Sima Yi sends his dead body back to Luoyang, where he receives a proper burial. See also

<mask> (,  12 March 1915, in Szeged – 17 March 2005, in Budapest) was a Hungarian mathematician who specialized in geometry. He proved that a lattice pattern is the most efficient way to pack centrally symmetric convex sets on the Euclidean plane (a generalization of Thue's theorem, a 2-dimensional analog of the Kepler conjecture). He also investigated the sphere packing problem. He was the first to show, in 1953, that proof of the Kepler conjecture can be reduced to a finite case analysis and, later, that the problem might be solved using a computer. He was a member of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences (from 1962) and a director of the Alfréd Rényi Institute of Mathematics (1970-1983). He received both the Kossuth Prize (1957) and State Award (1973). Together with H.S.M.Coxeter and Paul Erdős, he laid the foundations of discrete geometry. Early life and career
As described in a 1999 interview with István Hargittai, <mask> <mask>'s father was a railway worker, who advanced in his career within the railway organization ultimately to earn a doctorate in law. <mask> <mask>'s mother taught Hungarian and German literature in a high school. The family moved to Budapest, when <mask> <mask> was five; there he attended elementary school and high school—the Széchenyi István Reálgimnázium—where his interest in mathematics began. <mask> <mask> attended Pázmány Péter University, now the Eötvös Loránd University. As a freshman, he developed a generalized solution regarding Cauchy exponential series, which he published in the proceedings of the French Academy of Sciences—1935. He then received his doctorate at Pázmány Péter University, under the direction of Lipót Fejér.After university, he served as a soldier for two years, but received a medical exemption. In 1941 he joined the

texts: University of Kolozsvár (Cluj). It was here that he became interested in packing problems. In 1944, he returned to Budapest to teach mathematics at Árpád High School. Between 1946 and 1949 he lectured at Pázmány Péter University and starting in 1949 became a professor at the University of Veszprém (now University of Pannonia) for 15 years, where he was the primary developer of the "geometric patterns" theory "of the plane, the sphere and the surface space" and where he "had studied non grid-like structures and quasicrystals" which later  became an independent discipline, as reported by János Pach. The editors of a book dedicated to <mask> <mask> described some highlights of his early work; e.g. having shown that the maximum density of a packing of repeated symmetric convex bodies occurs with a lattice pattern of packing.He also showed that, of all convex polytopes of given surface area that are equivalent to a given Platonic solid (e.g. a tetrahedron or an octahedron), a regular polytope always has the largest possible volume. He developed a technique that proved Steiner's conjecture for the cube and for the dodecahedron. By 1953, <mask> <mask> had written dozens of papers devoted to these types of fundamental issues. His distinguished academic career allowed him to travel abroad beyond the Iron Curtain to attend international conferences and teach at various universities, including those at Freiburg; Madison, Wisconsin; Ohio; and Salzburg. <mask> <mask> met his wife in university. She was a chemist.They were parents of three children, two sons—one a professor of mathematics at the Alfréd Rényi Institute of Mathematics, the other a professor of physiology at Dartmouth College—and one daughter, a psychologist. He enjoyed sports, being skilled at table tennis, tennis, and

In addition to his positions in residence, he was a corresponding member of the Saxonian Academy of Sciences and Humanities, Akademie der Wissenschaften der DDR, and of the Braunschweigische Wissenschaftlische Gesellschaft. Work on regular figures
According to J. A. Todd, a reviewer of <mask> Tóth's book Regular Figures, <mask> Tóth divided the topic into two sections. One, entitled "Systematology of the Regular Figures", develops a theory of "regular and Archimedean polyhedra and of regular polytopes".Todd explains that the treatment includes:
 Plane Ornaments, including two-dimensional crystallographic groups
 Spherical arrangements, including an enumeration of the 32 crystal classes
 Hyperbolic tessellations, those discrete groups generated by two operations whose product is involutary
 Polyhedra, including regular solids and convex Archimedean solids
 Regular polytopes

The other section, entitled "Genetics of the Regular Figures", covers a number of special problems, according to Todd. These problems include "packings and coverings of circles in a plane, and ... with tessellations on a sphere" and also problems "in the hyperbolic plane, and in Euclidean space of three or more dimensions." At the time, Todd opined that those problems were "a subject in which there is still

 much scope for research, and one which calls for considerable ingenuity in approaching its problems". Honors and recognition

Imre Bárány credited <mask> <mask> with several influential proofs in the field of discrete and convex geometry, pertaining to packings and coverings by circles, to convex sets in a plane and to packings and coverings in higher dimensions, including the first correct proof of Thue's theorem. He credits <mask> Tóth, along with Paul Erdős, as having helped to "create the school of Hungarian discrete geometry." <mask> <mask>'s monograph, Lagerungen in der Ebene, auf der Kugel und im Raum, which was translated into Russian and Japanese, won him the Kossuth Prize in 1957 and the Hungarian Academy of Sciences membership in 1962. William Edge, another reviewer of Regular Figures, cites <mask> <mask>'s earlier work, Lagerungen in der Ebene, auf der Kugel und im Raum, as the foundation of his second chapter in Regular Figures.He emphasized that, at the time of this work, the problem of the upper bound for the density of a packing of equal spheres was still unsolved. The approach that <mask> <mask> suggested in that work, which translates as "packing [of objects] in a plane, on a sphere and in a space", provided  Thomas Hales a basis for a proof of the Kepler conjecture in 1998. The Kepler conjecture, named after the 17th-century German mathematician and astronomer Johannes Kepler, says that no arrangement of equally sized spheres filling space has a greater average density than that of the cubic close packing (face-centered cubic) and hexagonal close packing arrangements. Hales used a proof by exhaustion involving the checking of many individual cases, using complex computer calculations. <mask> <mask> received the following prizes:

He received honorary degrees from the University of Salzburg (1991) and the University of Veszprém (1997). In 2008, a conference was convened in <mask> <mask>'s memory in Budapest from June 30 – July 6; it celebrated the term, "Intuitive Geometry", coined by <mask> <mask> to refer to the kind of geometry, which is accessible to the "man in the street". According to the conference organizers, the term encompasses combinatorial geometry, the theory of packing, covering and tiling, convexity, computational geometry, rigidity theory, the geometry of numbers, crystallography and classical differential geometry.The University of Pannonia administers the László Fejes Tóth Prize (Hungarian: Fejes Tóth László-díj) to recognize "outstanding contributions and development in the field of mathematical sciences". In 2015, the year of Fejes Tóth's centennial birth anniversary, the prize was awarded to Károly Bezdek of the University of Calgary in a ceremony held on 19 June 2015 in Veszprém, Hungary.

<mask> of Auchindoun (1545–1580) was a Scottish knight, younger brother of the Earl of Huntly and military leader during the Marian civil war on behalf of Mary, Queen of Scots in north west Scotland. In Scottish ballad lore, <mask> became known as Edom <mask>. Supporter of Mary, Queen of Scots

<mask> was the son of <mask>, 4th Earl of Huntly and Elizabeth Keith, daughter of Robert Keith, Master of Marischal. <mask> was taken prisoner at the battle of Corrichie in 1562, but was restored to royal favour and made Laird of Auchindoun Castle. During the civil war he fought for the exiled Queen Mary, particularly against the Clan Forbes who followed the cause of James VI of Scotland against his mother. In March 1571, Jean Ruthven, Lady Methven wrote to her husband Henry Stewart, 2nd Lord Methven, fearful that <mask> was coming to Arbroath. In October 1571 <mask> defeated the Forbes at the battle of Tillieangus.In November at Craibstone, or Aberdeen Bridge, he defeated the Forbes and a troop of the Regent's soldiers commanded by Captains Chisholm and Wedderburn. <mask> then defeated an army of Regent Mar at Brechin. The major historical sources for <mask>'s role in the conflict are the near contemporary accounts of John Knox's secretary Richard Bannatyne and the chronicles, the Diurnal of Occurrents and History of King James the Sext. Battle of Tullieangus and the burning of Corgarff
Bannatyne said that <mask> had 1,000 men at Tillieangus against 300 Forbes on 17 October 1571. <mask> concealed his superior numbers to draw the Forbes into an ambush. The brother of

 Lord Forbes, Arthur Forbes was killed and 12 or 16 Forbes. William Forbes and 16 others were taken prisoner.Twenty-two <mask>s were killed, including <mask> of Buiky. Before Craibstone, he or his men were involved in a massacre of the Forbes family at Corgarff Castle. According to Bannatyne, 24 people were burnt to death in the castle including Lady Towie, although a day's truce was agreed. Only one escaped, by crawling through the heather and straw which the attackers had piled to fire the castle. The Diurnal says that <mask> sent his lieutenant Captain Ker to Lady Towie to ask her to surrender "Carrigill or (Corgarffe)." When she said no, <mask> ordered the place to be burnt, with about 27 casualties including Lady Towie and her daughters. <mask>'s kinsman, <mask> (bishop of Galloway) wrote from Edinburgh on 16 November 1571 with news of the battle at Tullieangus to Earl of Shrewsbury, who was the keeper of Mary, Queen of Scots.He intended to promote the Marian cause in England, writing "there was slain the principals of the gentlemen of the Forbes the number of 36, with my Lord Forbes's brother, one hundred taken, whereof my Lord Forbes' second son is one, and the rest brothers of Baronies and substantial gentlemen". Battle of Craibstone
According to the Diurnal, the Master of Forbes and Captains Chisholm and Wedderburn marched from Cowie to Aberdeen on 20 November 1571. Chisholm and Wedderburn, the Regent's men, commanded two bands of musketeers called "hagbutters." Their whole strength was about 800 men. <mask> and Captain Ker had 900 men in the town.

 The Forbes came over the bridge of Aberdeen, and fought with <mask>'s men for an hour (at Craibstone). The Forbes retreated, Chisholm and 300 men were killed, and the Master of Forbes and 200 men were captured.Two hundred Gordons were killed. Bannatyne mentions that some cavalry commanded by Alexander Campbell fought with the Forbes. Bannatyne says that the Forbes and the Regent's troops came to Aberdeen because they were short of food. <mask> was reluctant to fight because he was outgunned, but saw his chance after the troops wasted their ammunition. The Forbes bowmen or archers fled, Bannatyne wrote they "gave backis, and did no guid." A chronicle written by an Aberdeen man, Walter Cullen, records the casualties at 'Craibstayne' as about 60, three score, on each side (unless this a copyist's error for three hundred), and mentions the death of 'Guid' Duncan Forbes.<ref>'Walter Cullen's Chronicle of Aberdeen,' in Stuart, John, ed., Miscellany of the Spalding Club, vol. 2 (Aberdeen, 1842), p. 38.</ref> The chronicle History of King James of Sext described <mask>'s vigilance in Aberdeen as like a "valiant chiftayne, having alwayis his men in reddienes," and adds there were 600 cavalrymen against him.The fleeing Forbes were pursued for four miles. According to the History of James Sext'' (which has a bias against the Regents of Scotland), there were 300 Forbes casualties against thirty <mask>s. <mask>'s victories against the Forbes were marred by the "infamy" of the burning of the Lady Towie.

Then in 1574, <mask> was in touch with the English diplomat in Scotland, Henry Killigrew, and in France, and Francis Walsingham trying to secure his reconciliation with Regent Morton. At the same time, his brother, the 5th Earl of Huntly, wrote to Elizabeth I of England distancing himself from <mask>'s activities in France.In September 1574, Morton arrested Alexander Duff, a servant of <mask> who came to Scotland.

<mask> (, first name often spelled Constantin; 11 September 1939) was a leading Russian Impressionist painter. Biography

Youth and education
<mask> was born into a wealthy merchant family of Old Believers and his mother was from the nobility, although they were officially registered as "peasants" from Vladimir Gubernia". His father, <mask>, earned a university degree and was more interested in arts and music than in the family business established by <mask>'s grandfather. <mask>'s older brother <mask> was a notable realist painter. <mask>'s relative Illarion Pryanishnikov was also a prominent painter of the time and a teacher at the Moscow School of Painting, Sculpture and Architecture. In 1875 Korovin entered the Moscow School of Painting, Sculpture and Architecture, where he studied with Vasily Perov and Alexei Savrasov. His brother Sergei was already a student at the school.During their student years, the Korovins became friends with fellow students Valentin Serov and Isaac Levitan; <mask> maintained these friendships throughout his life. In 1881–1882, Korovin spent a year at the Imperial Academy of Arts in St. Petersburg, but returned disappointed to the Moscow School of Painting, Sculpture and Architecture. He studied at the school under his new teacher Vasily Polenov until 1886. In 1885 Korovin traveled to Paris and Spain. "Paris was a shock for me … Impressionists… in them I found everything I was scolded for back home in Moscow", he later wrote. Early works

Polenov introduced Korovin to Savva Mamontov's Abramtsevo Circle: Viktor Vasnetsov, Apollinary Vasnetsov, Ilya Repin,

The group's love for stylized Russian themes is reflected in Korovin's picture A Northern Idyll.In 1885 Korovin worked for Mamontov's opera house, designing the stage decor for Giuseppe Verdi's Aida, Léo Delibes' Lakmé and Georges Bizet's Carmen. In 1888 Korovin traveled with Mamontov to Italy and Spain, where he produced the painting On the Balcony, Spanish Women Leonora and Ampara. <mask> traveled within Russia, the Caucasus and Central Asia and exhibited with the Peredvizhniki. He painted in the Impressionist, and later in the Art Nouveau, styles. In the 1890s Korovin became a member of the  Mir iskusstva art group. Korovin's subsequent works were strongly influenced by his travels to the north. In 1888 he was captivated by the stern northern landscapes seen in The Coast of Norway and the Northern Sea.His second trip to the north, with Valentin Serov in 1894, coincided with the construction of the Northern Railway. Korovin painted a large number of landscapes: Norwegian Port, St. Triphon's Brook in Pechenga, Hammerfest: Aurora Borealis, The Coast at Murmansk and others. The paintings are built on a delicate web of shades of grey. The etude style of these works was typical for Korovin's art of the 1890s. Using material from his trip, Korovin designed the Far North pavilion at the 1896 All Russia Exhibition in Nizhny Novgorod. He painted ten big canvasses for the pavilion as well, depicting various aspects of life in the northern and Arctic regions. After the closure of the Exhibition, the canvasses were eventually placed in the Yaroslavsky Rail Terminal


texts: in Moscow.In the 1960s, they were restored and transferred to the Tretyakov Gallery. In 1900 Korovin designed the Central Asia section of the Russian Empire pavilion at the Paris World Fair and was awarded the Legion of Honour by the French government. In the beginning of the 20th century, Korovin focused his attention on the theater. He moved from Mamontov's opera to the Mariinsky Theatre in St.Petersburg. Departing from traditional stage decor, which only indicated the place of action, Korovin produced a mood decor conveying the general emotions of the performance. Korovin designed sets for <mask>'s dramatic productions, as well as Mariinsky's operas and ballets. He did the stage design for such Mariinsky productions as Faust (1899), The Little Humpbacked Horse (1901), and Sadko (1906) that became famous for their expressiveness.In 1905 Korovin became an Academician of Painting and in 1909–1913 a professor at the Moscow School of Painting, Sculpture and Architecture. One of the artist's favourite themes was Paris. He painted A Paris Cafe (1890s), Cafe de la Paix (1905), La Place de la Bastille (1906), Paris at Night, Le Boulevard Italien (1908), Night Carnival (1901), Paris in the Evening (1907), and others. During World War I Korovin worked as a camouflage consultant at the headquarters of one of the Russian armies and was often seen on the front lines. After the October Revolution Korovin continued to work in the theater, designing stages for Richard Wagner's Die Walküre and Siegfried, as well as Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky's The Nutcracker (1918–1920). In 1923 Korovin moved to Paris

 on the advice of Commissar of Education Anatoly Lunacharsky to cure his heart condition and help his handicapped son. There was supposed to be a large exhibition of Korovin's works, but the works were stolen and Korovin was left penniless.For years, he produced the numerous Russian Winters and Paris Boulevards just to make ends meet.

<mask> "<mask>" <mask> (born December 28, 1946) is a Libertarian Party activist who played a key role in the drafting and passage of California Proposition 215. The proposition was a ballot initiative to legalize medical marijuana which was approved by voters in 1996. <mask> himself is well-known as a cancer patient who relies on medical cannabis. He has authored two books on drug policy reform: The Politics of Consciousness, and Why Marijuana Should Be Legal. He was the Libertarian Party of California candidate for Governor of California in 1998 receiving 0.9% of the vote. In 2008, he declared his candidacy for the Libertarian Party's 2008 presidential nomination and received significant support for the nomination, but was eliminated after the second ballot. Although various media reports have described him as a "felon" and "fugitive", <mask>'s legal status was resolved on July 3, 2008, when California Superior Court Judge, David Nelson, dismissed all charges against <mask>, clearing his name and record of any criminal activity.Cancer patient
In 1968, at the age of 23, he began experiencing symptoms of hypertension and palpitations. He was diagnosed with malignant pheochromocytoma, a rare, fatal form of adrenal cancer. <mask> underwent surgery to remove a tumor in 1968, 1975 and 1976. This last time, his medical records show that the cancer had metastasised to his liver and beyond. All other patients with this diagnosis have had a 100% mortality rate within five years. His physician, Dr. Vincent DeQuattro, a specialist from the USC School of Medicine, monitored his condition and treated him with conventional therapies, including chemotherapy, until referring him to the Mayo Clinic in 1981 for yet another surgery and radiation. For the next 25 years, <mask> claimed to control the symptoms of his disease solely by smoking marijuana and by maintaining a healthy diet.His original doctor, an expert on this condition shocked to learn he was still alive, said,  "In some amazing fashion, this medication has not only controlled the symptoms of the pheochromocytoma, but in my view, has arrested its

The officers seized 265 marijuana plants and a small quantity of peyote from a guest bedroom, and <mask> was arrested. <mask> was a contender to be the Libertarian Party's vice presidential candidate in the 2000 election. The Libertarian Party requires the vice presidential candidate to be nominated by the delegates just as the presidential candidate is selected. <mask> was opposed by fellow Californian Art Olivier, and by Ken Krawchuk of Pennsylvania.After no candidate received a majority on the first ballot, Krawchuk withdrew his name from the ballot and endorsed Olivier, who then defeated <mask> by a vote of 418 to 338. On August 20, 2006, at the Seattle Hempfest, <mask> announced his intention to seek the Libertarian Party's nomination for President in 2008. The Federal Election Committee (FEC) issued candidate ID numbers for <mask> personally and for the <mask> for President Committee on September 18, 2006. He had since campaigned at various community and Libertarian Party events and launched a campaign web site. He later endorsed Ron Paul for President, in the event that Ron Paul is able to secure the GOP nomination. Meanwhile, <mask> was continuing to actively campaign and has made Internet history with the first animated presidential campaign video.

 Despite the victory of Prop. 215, <mask> and his wife, Michele, were arrested, jailed and prosecuted, under the false claim that the voter initiative provides only an affirmative defense and that it is to be used by only "seriously ill patients." In the 1996 Voter's Handbook, the Official Title and Summary prepared by the Attorney General Dan Lungren, the State of California informed voters that a 'YES' vote on Prop. 215 would exempt patients and defined caregivers from criminal laws.In fact, the very first sentence of the official title and summary clearly states: "Exempts patients and defined caregivers who possess or cultivate marijuana for medical treatment recommended by a physician from criminal laws which otherwise prohibit possession or cultivation of marijuana. "CA Secretary of State - Vote96 - Proposition 215

Nowhere in the official Title and Summary does it say anything about an affirmative defense, or any limits or restrictions. Furthermore, in the official Analysis of Proposition 215 by the Legislative Analyst, the voters were told, "No prescriptions or other record-keeping is required by the measure." In addition, the voters were reminded by the Legislative Analyst that this initiative also covered any other illness for which marijuana provides relief. "CA Secretary of State - Vote96 - Analysis of Proposition 215

The Placer County Sheriff's Department had been sent an anonymous letter alleging that the <mask>'s had been operating a major grow operation from their residence, and began an investigation. <mask> learned of this, and invited them to inspect the grow room, by passing a note through his own household trash, which the police had begun searching. That note, " ... addressed to law-enforcement personnel, advising them of <mask>'s use of medicinal marijuana, maintenance of a garden, possession of no more than 3.5 pounds of pot and his cancer condition," was removed from his trash and entered as evidence by the prosecution.US CA: MMJ: <mask>s Knew Of Impending Arrest

He maintains that the prosecution was politically motivated, implicating then-Attorney General Dan Lungren's office. Lungren had been aggressive in resisting the implementation of Proposition 215, to the point of issuing instructions to peace officers on how to cross-examine cannabis patients so as to undermine their claim of sanction. In jail for 72 hours after the arrest, <mask> was deprived of medical marijuana and became seriously ill. His blood pressure shot up to dangerous levels. USC Medical Center's Dr. Vincent DeQuattro, who made <mask>'s original diagnosis, wrote a letter to the court explaining <mask>'s condition and warning the judge what could happen if <mask> was further deprived of cannabis. <mask> described their ordeal in his official complaint,

Flight to Canada
In 2001, exercising his right to appeal the conviction for peyote possession, <mask> obtained the court's permission to move to Canada with his wife and two children. <mask> and his advisors were concerned that police and prosecutors were determined to prove their theory that he did not really need medical marijuana and would find a way to arrest and incarcerate him. After the <mask> family had been in Canada for a few months <mask> alleges the terms of his appeal were changed without his knowledge or consent by two judges. <mask> claims that he was wrongly reclassified as a fugitive. <mask> appealed his fugitive status through the Canadian legal system for five years.Among the arguments made in fighting the

 appeal was the likelihood that he would be denied access to cannabis in custody and risk death from his illness. This fear was later proved to be well founded as confirmed by the Placer Jail medical staff who found blood in his urine and other evidence of severe hypertensive trauma, which <mask> still suffers from, to this day. Dr. Joseph Michael Connors, an expert in the area of adrenal cancers, testified at the Canadian extradition hearing about <mask>'s medical condition:

Departure from Canada and incarceration in the US

After numerous appeals, <mask> was asked to leave Canada under a "conditional Departure Order" within 30 days, which he did. He arrived in San Francisco, California, on Thursday, January 26, 2006, accompanied by his attorney Bill McPike, and was immediately arrested. Although it had been arranged that <mask> would surrender at the Placer Superior Court on Tuesday, 31 January, he was removed from the Alaska Airlines jet on arrival by San Francisco police officers at the request of sheriff's officials in Placer County and taken through secure areas of the airport, bypassing the supporters gathered to greet him. He was held in San Mateo County Jail in Redwood City, where, according to NORML spokesman Dale Gieringer, he was becoming rapidly ill. He was transported to Placer County Jail Friday afternoon and was arraigned at 1 p.m. in Dept.13 of Placer County Superior court Tuesday, 31 January. Gieringer reports that Placer County Jail granted <mask> access to Marinol, a THC synthetic which lacks the cannabinoids which have been shown to modulate catecholamine levels. <mask>, with the Marinol, immediately went into cardiac arrest due to the lack of subsequent cannabinoids which modulated the known issues. <mask> reported that the Marinol helped in specific quantities, but that her husband could tell subjectively that it will not be effective in the long run. She also describes her husband's conditions of confinement,

In January, the San Francisco Board of Supervisors passed a resolution supporting <mask> and calling for his immediate release from jail. On March 6, 2006, <mask>

 was released early from jail for good behavior. At a March 14 hearing, he was re-sentenced to another 60 days in jail for violating his probation by not returning from Canada in 2001, and began serving the sentence on Wednesday, March 15.<mask> was released on April 5 after serving only 22 days of the 60-day sentence, his time reduced because of jail overcrowding. In July 2007, the Office of National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP—the drug czar's office) used testimony submitted to Congress to misrepresent the position of <mask>, claiming that he no longer supports medical marijuana. In written testimony before the House Judiciary Subcommittee on Crime, Terrorism and Homeland Security, Dr. David Murray, ONDCP's Chief Scientist called medical marijuana advocates "modern-day snake oil proponents," sneered at medicines that make patients "feel good," and claimed that laws okaying medical marijuana in a dozen states have led to "abuse, confusion, and crime." Then, to further buttress his argument against the therapeutic use of the herb, he added:

<mask> suffered from almost constant nausea while on Marinol, he wrote, adding that Murray took his sentence about Marinol out of context. The paragraph from which it was extracted reads as follows: "During that time I experienced excruciating pain, a vicious high blood-pressure crisis, passed blood in my urine and I lost 33 pounds. However, there was also good news. I learned that Marinol is an acceptable, if not ideal, substitute for whole cannabis in treating my otherwise fatal disease.Now I am a free man and I am profoundly grateful to be alive and to have friends and supporters such as you." While conceding that Marinol can be effective for treatment of hypertension and would allow him to travel briefly without medical marijuana, it does not allow him to have an acceptable quality of life, <mask> said. "Please help me squash this deceptive and dangerous misrepresentation of my true feeling on this matter by the ONDCP," <mask> wrote. "It just shows how desperate they are that they must mislead people in this way. And just so there is no question about

<mask> strongly supports the United States Constitution and civil liberties. He supports legal abortion, gay rights, gun rights, a non-interventionist foreign policy, immediate withdrawal of U.S. troops from the war in Iraq, open borders, and the elimination of federal individual income tax.He opposes most governmental regulations, programs, and federal subsidies. He also opposes the War on drugs, Patriot Act and the Military Commissions Act. During a 2009 interview with a New Jersey newspaper, he criticized the health care plan presented by President Barack Obama, saying: "Obama is ready to spend trillions of dollars to create a government health program. I have a far simpler plan that will genuinely help patients and save them and the government all those trillions of dollars: reschedule marijuana to reflect reality and authorize its use for medical purposes."

He played senior hockey for the St. Patrick's team that won the Boyle Trophy championship in the 1959–60 and 1960–61 seasons.His assist on the winning goal in the decisive game in 1960 ended a 16-year consecutive championship streak by the Saint Bonaventure's College alumni senior team.

He expected that the NAHA could join the Canadian Amateur Hockey Association (CAHA) within five years if the terms of affiliation were acceptable, and that it could be admitted independent of and equal to the Maritime Amateur Hockey Association. He sought for the CAHA to accommodate more NAHA requests than in previous offers of affiliation, which included the NAHA keeping regulations which allowed a paid player-coach and the occasional professional player on a roster. The NAHA also wanted its senior league to have shorter playoffs for the Allan Cup instead of an interlocking schedule with teams from the Maritimes. In May 1966, <mask> reached an agreement with CAHA president Lionel Fleury who accepted the NAHA as a branch member for the 1966–67 season. <mask> stated that despite Newfoundland becoming Canada's tenth province in 1949, the NAHA took 17 years to affiliate with the CAHA "through lack of information, misinterpretation of correspondence and other factors".

He felt the previous overtime rule to be "distasteful" and had tried to get it changed for several years. In May 1975, the CAHA adopted of series of updates to its ice hockey rules in an effort to reduce on-ice violence and improve the safety of players.

The CAHA sought C$195,000 from the World Hockey Association (WHA) in outstanding payments for drafting and signing junior-aged players to professional contracts. The CAHA asked for assistance from Marc Lalonde, the Minister of National Health and Welfare, in getting the National Hockey League (NHL) and the WHA back to the negotiation table for a new professional-amateur agreement after the previous deal expired earlier in 1975.

Financial assistance was provided by the Government of Canada and from a sponsorship negotiated with the O'Keefe Sports Foundation and the Daoust-Lalonde skate company.

He stated the possibility that Canada might be represented by a junior all-star team at the World Championships if professional players were unavailable, and noted that failure to send a team would likely mean the end of all international games involving Canada. The IIHF agreed to delay the tournament by two weeks, which allowed Canada to access more professionals who were no longer active in NHL or WHA playoffs.China invited another Canadian amateur team for an instructional tour and requested the CAHA bring along referees to teach Chinese on-ice officials. <mask> felt that the invitation showed Canada had teams which could play the game in a sportsmanlike manner, despite its reputation for physical play internationally.

<mask> (August 8, 1908 – July 17, 1953) was an American philanthropist. As the daughter of <mask> and <mask>, she therefore inherited considerable wealth from her father's company, the nationally prominent R. J. Reynolds Tobacco Company. She was a founder for both the Z. Smith Reynolds Foundation and the Mary Reynolds Babcock Foundation. She and her husband <mask> gifted Wake Forest University 350 acres, and the university moved to Winston-Salem, North Carolina. Biography
<mask> was born in 1908 in Winston-Salem, North Carolina as the second child to tobacco tycoon R. J<mask> and his wife <mask>. She was preceded by her brother R.J. "Dick<mask>; her younger siblings <mask> and Zachary Smith <mask> followed in 1910 and 1911 respectively. The family lived at 666 W Fifth St in Winston-Salem in a palatial Queen Anne mansion, designed by architect George Franklin Barber.Fifth street was labeled as "Millionaire's Row" due to the number of <mask> family members, high-ups in R.J. Reynolds tobacco company, and other tobacco or textile industrialists who lived there. The house was located conveniently to the offices of R.J. Reynolds Tobacco at the intersection of Fifth and Main. While R.J<mask> worked regularly to continue building his tobacco empire, Katharine <mask> fulfilled the role of a wealthy Southern wife through managing the household and regularly entertaining fellow Winston-Salem socialites. However, she also deviated from this role through her participation in business and local politics, joining the ranks of the New Women of the era. Prior to her marriage in 1905, she studied business at the State Normal and Industrial School in Greensboro, NC, although she would leave Normal and receive her bachelor's degree from Sullins College in Bristol, Virginia. After graduating, Katharine worked as R.J.'s stenographer and secretary, and he taught her to navigate the stock market. Through purchasing her own stocks, she was able to develop her own independent income; at

 a time when only 5% of men owned stock, and even less women, she was taking in $10,000 over a period of less than eighteen months.Her management and money skills allowed her to undertake extensive civic duties, such as the creation of a local YMCA chapter, in which she served as President, and Junior League. Her independent wealth, alongside that of her husband, allowed for her to participate extensively in philanthropy, donating generously to a variety of causes such as the creation of hospitals and orphanages. Reynolda Estate Era
In addition to her familial, societal, and civic responsibilities, around 1905 Katharine <mask>, with the full financial support of her husband, began to design her own estate of Reynolda. After buying over 1,000 acres of land north of Winston-Salem, she worked extensively with architects, landscape artists, and agriculture specialists to create not just a private house for her family, but also a self-sufficient model farm for exhibiting and educating on the most modern agriculture techniques. In the style of an English estate, a village with cottages provided for white workers was built; another community called "Five Row" was also built for black estate workers. As a child, <mask> went to a small private school within Reynolda Village on the estate, and eventually went on to Salem Academy to further her education. This was later followed by schooling at Miss Wright's School, a girl's finishing school in Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania.After graduating she went to Paris and studied art, a passion of hers. <mask> <mask> married Charles Henry <mask>, an investment banker from Philadelphia, and had four children. <mask> was an influential businessman and a public-minded citizen whose influence continues to be felt throughout the state of North Carolina and especially the Piedmont in the twenty-first century. In 1936, her father, R.J<mask>, left her an inheritance of thirty million dollars. At this point in her life, she was considered to be

 one of the wealthiest women in the world. With this money, she made many donations to various causes with a focus on local education. <mask> died of stomach cancer in 1953.She died in New York City and was buried in Winston-Salem at the <mask> family plot in Salem Cemetery. <mask> <mask> started the Z. Smith Reynolds Foundation, which was established in 1933 after the death of her brother, Zachary Smith <mask>. It had a broad mandate to support the 'betterment of mankind and furtherance of the public welfare'. Upon her death in 1953, her will provided twelve million dollars for the establishment of the Mary Reynolds Babcock Foundation, a philanthropic organization for the benefit of North Carolinians, particularly to "help people and places to move out of poverty and achieve greater social and economic justice." By the 1960s, both foundations were controlled by interlocking boards composed primarily of <mask> family members, including Charles (Charlie) H<mask>, <mask>'s husband; R.J<mask> Jr.; and <mask> Forsyth, Zachary Smith Reynold's daughter from his first marriage. In the 1960s, the Reynolds' wealth had passed into the hands of a second generation of family members who were far removed from the political and economic struggles of the workplace. They played no role in the day-to-day management of Reynolds Tobacco.They took their cues instead from the culture of mid-twentieth-century American philanthropy, which puts its faith in social engineering and the use of private wealth to advance the common welfare. Some examples include Alliance for Appalachia, Blueprint NC, and Federation of Child Care Centers of Alabama. Charles and <mask> Babcock donated 350 acres from the family estate for the relocation of Wake Forest University. From 1952 to 1956, 14 buildings were constructed on the Winston-Salem campus. The school was officially moved to Winston-Salem in the summer of 1956. References

He also played keyboards on several songs on the Dreamtime, Love and Sonic Temple albums. Following the recording of the band's third long-player, Electric, in 1987, the band felt that a second guitarist was needed on tour to reproduce the music of Electric.The role was filled by <mask>, having a familiarity with the songs and style, and being a former guitarist. For the tours, Kid Chaos (formerly of Zodiac Mindwarp and the Love Reaction) was recruited as bassist. <mask> continued to appear on bass in the first two promotional videos for Electric: "Love Removal Machine" and "Lil Devil". The 5 piece line-up with <mask> on guitar was used for the 3rd video, Wild Flower. <mask> moved back to bass for the recording and touring of the Sonic Temple album. Keyboards for the recording were played by John Webster (Aerosmith, Tom Cochrane), and by John Sinclair (Ozzy Osbourne, Uriah Heep) on tour. In 1990, following the tour, <mask> left the band, citing the distance that had grown between Astbury and Duffy, and a wish to start a family, as the main reasons for departure.His final appearance with The Cult was at the Universal Amphitheater in Los Angeles on 3

Bahrām Beyzāêi (also spelt Beizāi, Beyzāêi, ک born 26 December 1938) is an Iranian playwright, theatre director, screenwriter, film editor, and ostād ("master") of Persian letters, arts and Iranian studies. <mask>e is the son of the poet <mask> (best known by his literary pseudonym "Zokā'i"). The celebrated poet <mask>, known as one of the most profound poets of 20th-century Iran, is Bahram's paternal uncle. <mask>'s paternal grandfather, Mirzā Mohammad-Rezā Ārāni ("Ebn Ruh"), and paternal great-grandfather, the mulla Mohammad-Faqih Ārāni ("Ruh'ol-Amin"), were also notable poets. In spite of his somewhat belated start in cinema, <mask> is often considered a pioneer of a generation of filmmakers whose works are sometimes described as the Iranian New Wave. His Bashu, the Little Stranger (1986) was voted "Best Iranian Film of all time" in November 1999 by a Persian movie magazine Picture World poll of 150 Iranian critics and professionals. Still, even before the outset of his cinematic career in 1970, he was a leading playwright (as well as theatre historian), so much so that he is often considered the greatest playwright of the Persian language, and holds a reputation as "The Shakespeare of Persia".Since 2010, <mask> has lived and taught at Stanford University, United States.

 mother. His father made a living through a legal occupation and was able to attend to his literary interests reasonably. The young Bahram did not seem very interested in his family legacy, being poetry, which was pursued by his father, uncles and cousins. In high school, the Dar'ol-Fonoun, he wrote two historical plays which went on to become his preferred method of writing. At the age of 21, he did substantial research on the traditional Persian plays, particularly Ta'zieh, and by 1961 he had already spent a great deal of time studying and researching other ancient Persian and pre-Islamic culture and literature. This in turn led him to studying Eastern theatre and traditional Iranian theatre and arts which would help him formulate a new non-Western identity for Iranian theatre.He also became acquainted with Persian painting. Career

Playwriting in the 1960s
In 1968, <mask> was one of the nine founders of the Iranian Writers' Guild, a highly controversial organization in the face of censorship. In 1969, he was invited to teach at the Theater Department of the College of Fine Arts at University of Tehran. He chaired this department from 1972 to 1979. With his readership many prominent authors and artists started teaching at the department and created the most fruitful period in the history of that department. <mask>e's groundbreaking A Study on Iranian Theatre (Namayesh dar

Death of Yazdgerd has been performed in Iran, France, England, India and USA among other countries, and was made into a film of the same name by <mask> in 1981. Death of Yazdgerd and Kalat Claimed have been translated into English by Manuchehr Anvar. 1970s and the outset of a cinematic career
In 1969, he began his film career by directing the short film Amu Sibilou (Uncle Moustache) followed by "Safar" in 1970. With these films <mask> is often considered to be a pioneer of what is called the Iranian New Wave, a Persian cinema movement that is supposed to have spontaneously started in the late 1960s, i.e. ignoring earlier efforts by filmmakers such as Farrokh Ghaffari and Ebrahim Golestan, and includes other outstanding directors such as Nasser Taghvai, Forough Farrokhzad, Amir Naderi, Ali Hatami, Sohrab Shahid Sales, Dariush Mehrjui, Abbas Kiarostami, Parviz Kimiavi, Masoud Kimiai and Fereydun Gole among others; and soon following Khosrow Sinai, Masoud Jafari Jozani, Kianoush Ayari, Varuzh Karim-Masihi, Ebrahim Hatamikia and
