For some reason, however, Ayiekoh preferred tested strikers in big matches. In the few matches he played, Ayiekoh deployed him on the right wing, a position that didn't suit him well. So in August 1985, his career took a huge turn that would eke his name into Ugandan football echelons. Villa versus Express…the whole Kampala would come to a standstill. With thousands of fans still forcing their way to enter Nakivubo stadium, <mask> <mask>, given a rare start, fired in two quick goals in the first four minutes to give SC Villa a sweet 2–0 win over Express. The story at the end of the match wasn't the result, but a 'mysterious' Villa player that had scored even before many entered.Despite the fact that Villa didn't win any silverware that season, the writing was on the wall that they were headed for bigger things. Indeed, things turned for the better when in 1986 season, Polly Ouma took over as Villa coach. On his part, he improved his 1985 tally of six goals to eight. SC Villa won its first league and Cup double. Then the goals started flowing in 1987; He scored three goals as SC Villa won the Cecafa Club Championship and when Nsubuga got sidelined by injury, Ouma played <mask> Musisi in his favoured central role, scoring eight goals in the first six league games. His sharpness was so irresistible that Cranes coach Barnabas Mwesiga handed the 20-year-old his debut in July 1987. It was a 1988 Olympic qualifier against Mozambique.With <mask> Musisi partnering the great Phillip Omondi on the frontline, the combo was a joy to watch as they

At Villa, Vubya was the perfect foil for <mask> <mask>, occupying opponents and picking out <mask>'s intelligent runs with inch-perfect passes. At the end of the season, <mask> was crowned top scorer with 28 goals. Later that year, the pair defied a Fufa directive and appeared for their Lugave clan in the Bika By'Abaganda football championship just days before the crucial Olympic qualifier against Zambia. So, when the federation suspended them, there was public outcry. FUFA (Federation of Uganda Football Association) had no option but to recall the two players and ironically, it was <mask> and Vubya who made the difference as Uganda won the home leg 2–1.However, the Zambians would go on to eliminate Uganda but when the two teams met in the CECAFA Cup later that year, <mask> <mask> ran rings around the Zambians, scoring a hat-trick and at the end of the event, he emerged the top scorer. Fittingly, he was voted the 1987 Footballer of the Year. Patrick Kawooya, the filthy rich SC Villa boss, was one of <mask>'s biggest admirers. He rented him a plush house at Najjanankumbi, a Kampala suburb, fully furnished with a refrigerator, cooker, video system, standby generator and other luxuries. "I remember one time <mask> came to me with a bag full of money and we went to Kyebando where we purchased a plot of land, it was a lot of money", <mask> <mask>'s mother Namutebi recollects. She says the entire family depended on <mask> Musisi. "When he hit headlines, he took over the responsibility of the entire family and started paying school fees for about 12 of his siblings", she adds.<mask> Musisi and

 Kawooya were so close that in many ways, he [Musisi] was the go-between for other players. "At the time, many of the upcoming Villa players like me used to channel our problems through <mask> Musisi and the following day, you would get it", says Charles Sebugwawo former SC Villa player. Goals, goals, goals

Because of his well-built frame and fearless approach no defender could go with him toe to toe. Fans nicknamed him 'Tyson,' which was a direct comparison to the then young boxing heavyweight champion Mike Tyson, who also left destruction in his wake. 'Magic' is another popular tag they called him because of his style of play. In the 1988 season, however, <mask> Musisi endured a dip in form and his self-belief took a hit. Drama unfolded in the decisive league game against KCC, when <mask> Musisi missed a couple of sitters and even failed to convert from the spot when the Jogoos were trailing 1–2.But when Vubya equalised with a few minutes left, Kawooya went on the touchline and usurped the powers of Geoff Hudson, Villa coach. He asked John Kaweesi to warm up in place of the misfiring <mask> Musisi. But just as they waited for a dead ball situation, <mask> Musisi scored the winner in stoppage time and, ironically, Kawooya raced the full length of the pitch to carry Musisi shoulder high. At the end of the season, <mask> Musisi scored a respectable 13 league goals. But that, by <mask> <mask>'s standards, was a step down despite missing a number of games due to an ankle injury. <mask> <mask> would later score a brace to eject KCC from the Uganda Cup before netting a spectacular goal against Express in the Uganda Cup final as Villa won the league and Cup double.

To cap a successful season, <mask> <mask> topscored the CECAFA Cup with four goals – also converted in the final shootout as Uganda beat Malawi to win the event after 12 years. In 1990, SC Villa and <mask> remained dominant on the local scene, with the Jogoos retaining the league as <mask> <mask>'s 28 goals equalled Isa Sekatawa's three top-scoring awards. Earlier in September, he was a thorn in the DR Congo defence when he scored a late winner in the 2–1 triumph in a Nations Cup qualifier. He was not done yet; in December, he put the icing on the cake as Uganda beat Sudan 2–0 to retain the CECAFA title. Unsurprisingly, he picked up a second 'Footballer of the Year' award. In 1991, he scored 17 league goals to become the first player to reach 100 league goals but Villa ended the season empty-handed.However, they had every reason to celebrate after finishing runners-up in the Africa Club Championship. <mask> Musisi scored a couple of goals in that fairytale campaign but what stood out was his diving header against Nigeria's Iwuanyanwu Nationale in the semi-final. In 1992, <mask> Musisi was on track to make light work of Jimmy Kirunda's record of 32 goals a season when he netted a mindboggling 29 goals in the league's first round. In his final league appearance, he tormented KCC goalie Sadiq Wassa to the extent that when he scored his fourth in the 5–0 win, he simply walked off the field as if to suggest that domestic opposition no longer matched his ambitions. Nevertheless, he extended his league tally to 144 goals. It was a blessing in disguise when French side Stade Rennes signed the player for a

<mask> <mask> can best be described as an orthodox forward, one who makes scoring look easy. He was a natural finisher who got the best out of his physical presence. He was also a deadball specialist. On the other hand, he was a tireless workhorse with exceptional firepower; added to pace, good dribbling skills and a great aerial presence, he was the most difficult striker to mark. While many of today's strikers avoid tackles, <mask> Musisi was a nightmare for man-markers. Yet despite his fearsome frame, Musisi was always composed and never lost his temper or retaliated yet many teams purposely set out to eliminate him. Professional football

At Rennes, <mask> <mask> was a regular presence and scored a number of crucial goals, which prompted Turkish side Bursaspor to sign him in 1997 for a reported $1m.He later moved to Dardanelspor, another Turkish club before he brought the curtain down on his professional career in 2001. "Dardanelspor still owes him money", says Nantongo, without disclosing the amount. [<mask> (front row second right) at Dardanelspor]

<mask> Musisi returned to Uganda in 2001 and rejoined SC Villa. However, it was clear he was over the hill and failed to show the predatory skills of the past. He remained a key player for Uganda, captaining the side on several occasions and the highlight was a hat-trick in 1998 in the 5–0 win over Rwanda. However, he unceremoniously ended his Cranes career when Harrison Okagbue, the then coach threw him out of camp for breaching the team's code of conduct in 2000.

 to get off the mark and called it a day. For all the great goals he scored, Uganda's failure to qualify for the Nations Cup somehow dented his overall greatness. In 1991, <mask> and his Villa teammates turned down a national call-up before a crucial Nations Cup qualifier against DR Congo. After spending two seasons with the Rennes in France where he played a total of 64 matches scoring 18 goals (League 2 and Coupe de France), he was sold to the Turkish top-flight club Bursaspor and later to Çanakkale Dardanelspor for 1.8 billion Ugandan shillings transfer fee ($1 million), making a record in the transfer market for the most expensive Uganda import. In the 1996 season, he was voted Best Foreign Player of the Year in the Turkish league. After playing in Turkey he had a spell playing for Đà Nẵng in Vietnam. He founded the now famous Bursaspor crocodile walk goal celebration during the UEFA Intertoto Cup match against German side Karlsruher SC on 2 August 1995.He also played for the Ugandan national team.

<mask> (October 4, 1838 – October 25, 1922) was an early pioneer of Colorado. He was an entrepreneur, newspaper correspondent, comedian, poet, publisher, and Past Grand Master of Colorado Masons. He is best remembered for his poetry, especially his "The Lodge Room Over Simpkins’ Store". He has been called "poet laureate of Freemasonry" and "Pioneer Poet". Biography

Early life and pioneer
<mask> was born in Boston, Massachusetts on October 4, 1838 to <mask> of New England and Rebecca J. Caldwell of Nova Scotia. He received his education in the Boston public schools, graduating in 1855 from the English High School. After completing his education he worked in a wholesale importing house for four years.Working in an emporium would later contribute to his entrepreneurial spirit and knowledge. At the start of the Pike's Peak Gold Rush in 1859, <mask> partnered with Gardner G. Brewer to start a mercantile business in Colorado. On April 11, 1860 the partners left Boston and traveled to Chicago, Illinois, then went down to St. Louis, Missouri, then up the Mississippi River on a steamboat to Hannibal, Missouri. From there they traveled by train to St. Joseph, Missouri, where they joined the “Brad Pease” Party on April 28, and after twenty-six days they arrived in Denver, Colorado on May 24. Once in Denver, the partners purchased a team of mules, a wagon, groceries, and mining supplies and headed for California Gulch, today known as Leadville, Colorado via Colorado Springs, Colorado (then known as Colorado City) and Ute Pass—a very treacherous route, but the only way of getting to California Gulch. Having made a considerable profit, the two men returned to Denver to start a mercantile store called Greenleaf & Brewer, Co. They built the first two-story brick building on Larimer Street in Denver, the block on which the

 building once stood is now called Larimer Square.The store originally carried only groceries and liquor, but starting in 1863 they began to transform their store into a toys and fancy goods shop. This may have been at the encouragement of Brewer, who formerly had worked in his father's fancy goods shop in Boston. Brewer, like <mask>, was a Freemason, a member of Denver Lodge No. 5 A.F. & A.M., and was Past Master of that lodge from 1870 to 1872. The two men would work together for thirty years. Personal life
On March 30, 1869 <mask> married Jennie Sophia Hammon in Denver.Jennie was born in Boston and was the daughter of Lorenzo R. Hammond of Massachusetts. She traveled to Denver the same year as <mask>, 1860, with her mother and stepfather, Martin and Sophia Rollins, both originally from Illinois. Just as her husband was highly active in Masonic organizations, so too was Jennie. She was one of the founding members of the Social Order of the Beauceant, served as its Vice President in 1893, and as President in 1894. <mask> and Jennie <mask> had three children together. Their first child, Gardner, was born on February 6, 1871, and who later moved to Chicago. Their second child, <mask> <mask>, born on August 19, 1875, went on to become a continentally-renowned magician and stage artist.Eugene primarily lived in Chicago and traveled with the Redpath Lyceum Bureau and the Chautauqua Circuit. Just as his father wrote under a pen name, so too did Eugene work under a stage name: Eugene Laurant. Their third child, Rebecca Jane, born in 1877, married a Salt Lake City merchant, Don Rose Lewis. Political career
<mask> was also heavily ambitious in holding public office. He was a stalwart Democrat, which may have been a contributing factor to his departure from a very Republican New England. In 1865 he ran on the Democratic

 ticket for Superintendent of Public Instruction, and was a judge for the First Ward in the Denver City Election of 1866. He served on the Board of Education of Denver School District No.1 from 1885 until 1891, as well as several committees. He and his family were also attendants of their Episcopal Church. Death and legacy

<mask><mask> died on October 25, 1922. He is buried in Fairmount Cemetery (Denver, Colorado). Five years after his death, in 1927, a new lodge was chartered in the Cherry Creek neighborhood of Denver, which bears his name: Lawrence N. Greenleaf Lodge No. 169 A.F. & A.M.

Freemasonry
<mask> was a highly active Freemason.Why <mask> became a Mason is uncertain. What is known is that on November 30, 1860 a man named Patrick Waters killed a Freemason named Thomas R. Freeman, and then fled to Nebraska. Another Mason captured Waters and brought him back to Denver. Several Denver Masons paid for lawyers, a judge, and court venue to conduct a trial. Waters was found guilty and executed by hanging on December 21, 1860. <mask> was one of the men on the jury. It is believed <mask> was so impressed by the way the Freemasons handled the situation and sought justice that he desired to become a member.However, <mask> did not become a Mason for another three years, nor was he initiated into the Masonic fraternity in Colorado. <mask> was initiated an Entered Apprentice, passed to a Fellowcraft, and raised a Master Mason on the same day by special dispensation at Columbian Lodge in Boston on November 21, 1863. For what reasons he had returned to Boston is unknown. Eight months later he traveled back to Colorado, demitted from Columbian Lodge and affiliated with Denver Lodge No. 5 A.F. & A.M. He was elected Worshipful Master of Denver Lodge No.5 five times and served as Grand Master of Masons in Colorado in

 1880. He was an Excellent High Priest of Royal Arch Masons and served as Grand High Priest in 1885. He was close friends with Albert Mackey, who anointed <mask> in the Order of High Priesthood. He was also close friends with Henry P. H. Bromwell, who, along with George Lounsbery and <mask>, helped charter the Grand Council of High Priesthood in Colorado in 1887, of which <mask> served as President for thirty-five years. He was made a Knight Templar in Boston in 1868, as well as a Scottish Rite Mason. He received his 33rd Degree in Washington, D.C. on October 30, 1880, and in 1883 was commissioned to be Deputy Inspector General of Scottish Rite Masonry in Colorado by Henry M. Teller. He was also good friends with Albert Pike, and Robert Freke Gould.Literary career

Just after high school <mask> began to publicly try his hand at poetry. The first known instance of <mask> publicly presenting a poem was on May 13, 1857 at the Tremont Temple Baptist Church in Boston. He delivered a poem called "Art" before the Lowell Literary Association. The poem received mixed reviews from the Boston Evening Traveller, the Daily Bee, and the Boston Herald. Nonetheless, he was invited back the next year to deliver a poem called "Columbus" about Christopher Columbus. The poem "Columbus" was included in his published collection of poetry King Sham and Other Atrocities. <mask> earned the title of "Pioneer Poet" in December 1860.At the first meeting of the Literary and Historical Society of Denver on December 12, 1860, <mask> was invited by the Lecturer, Dr. W. H. Farner, to deliver a poem. The very next day the Rocky Mountain News had the following to say concerning the poem:

It was of an humorous character, abounding in keen satire and well devised puns, and produced repeated rounds of applause from those present. Mr. G. possesses

The poem was so well received that <mask> was invited back to the next meeting in January 1861 to deliver the same poem. Over the years <mask> would publish poems in the Rocky Mountain News, as well as witty jokes and comical correspondences. The publisher of Rocky Mountain News, William Byers, was a close friend of <mask>'s. Like many of <mask>'s associations and friendships, Byers was a Freemason and a Past Master of Denver Lodge No.5 A.F. & A.M in 1876. Byers permitted <mask> to publish in the newspaper his satirical and comical writings, which he did under the nom de plume Peter Punever. As Punever, <mask> shows off his wit and humor, usually in the form of puns. The Punever jokes were very popular, and gained him the epithet of "the undaunted and the inspired Pike's Peak punster". The satirical writings, poems, and jokes of <mask>, as both himself and as Peter Punever, led him to publish a collection of his poems in a book entitled King Sham and Other Atrocities in Verse; Including a Humorous History of the Pike's Peak Excitement (New York: Hurd and Houghton). It was <mask>'s only published book.The book is composed of two parts: “King Sham,” which is the collection of his comical poems, most of which had been previously published in the Rocky Mountain News; the second part is composed of “Serious and Occasional Pieces.” A few of the serious poems had been previous published in the newspaper, such as "Shades and Gleams", but most were previously unpublished or had only ever been presented at literary association events. The poem "King Sham" is one of the most popular of the poems in King Sham. It is an incredibly pessimistic and satirical poem that, first, illustrates a fantasy world call the Kingdom of Humbug,

 which is ruled over by King Sham. Everything in this fantasy world is cheap, fake, and coerced. Next <mask> reveals that this fantasy is, in fact, reality: "Society's a sham, beyond a doubt." This poem was very popular unto itself. It was first presented on March 26, 1862 at the People's Theater as part of a benefit performance.He continued to present the poem from March through August 1862. He then took the poem on tour to the various isolated mining camps throughout the Territory of Colorado, which was most likely the first entertainment tour in the Rocky Mountains. As <mask>'s popularity grew, he was invited to more and more occasions and events to deliver original poems. Some of the most notable occasions include the Fourth of July Celebration of 1865, the Pioneer's Celebration on July 4, 1866, the Saint John the Baptist Day Masonic Celebration on June 24, 1867, and the Centennial Celebration in 1876. <mask>'s ambitions eventually went beyond merely writing for a friend's newspaper and writing extensive reports for the Grand Lodge of A.F. & A.M. of Colorado. In 1893 he purchased the Square and Compass magazine.As publisher and editor of a Masonic magazine, he was finally provided the platform on which to regularly disseminate more of his written works and drive his agendas for Freemasonry.

<mask> was born and raised in Seattle, Washington, the eldest of 10 siblings. She got her start as a singer by singing at the Mount Zion Baptist Church in Seattle, and her first experience on stage was performing with the Langston Hughes Theater, also in Seattle. When looking for a French tutor so that she could sing French lyrics in a Langston Hughes Theater production, she met guitarist Tommy Martin. <mask> eventually married Martin, and on September 7, 1979, the couple had their first and only child, a son, TJ Martin, who, in 2012, won the Academy Award for Best Documentary Feature for the film, Undefeated. Music career
<mask> and Martin formed a band called Bam Bam in 1983.The band also included bassist Scott Ledgerwood, and drummer Matt Cameron (the latter went on to join Soundgarden and then Pearl Jam). Cameron was later replaced by Tom Hendrickson. <mask>'s diminutive frame of 5'2" belied her low smoky voice that was called "unapologetic". According to Seattle Times: "The legacy of <mask>, a Black woman, has often been overlooked in a genre typically associated with long-haired white guys." These include Seattle breakout bands like Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Alice in Chains, Soundgarden,  and others of that ilk. She was sometimes the victim of racial attacks while on stage, but the Bell-led Bam Bam was popular with local audiences. Future Nirvana founder Kurt Cobain once served as a roadie for the band and was also a fan.Although Bam Bam were

This was the first grunge record made at Reciprocal Recording studio, the location where later Nirvana made their demos for the Bleach and Incesticide albums. Villains predated the better known grunge recordings by about a year. "It wasn't for more than $100. The first band I recorded that released any kind of vinyl was an outfit called Bam Bam," Reciprocal Recording's owner Chris Hanzsek (the latter producer of albums by Soundgarden, Mudhoney, Melvins, and others in the Seattle music scene) told Billboard magazine. With songs written by <mask>, Ledgerwood and Martin, and with Hendrickson on drums, Bam Bam recorded an album's worth of material at Reciprocal Recordings, including the material on the EP.

 Reidar <mask>.Party chairman and cabinet member
In 1922 <mask> was a delegate at the Fourth Comintern Congress. In 1923 the revolutionary wing that had assumed power in the Labour Party in 1918 had split into two wings, one for and one against Comintern membership. <mask> belonged to the latter wing, which assumed power at the 1923 national convention. <mask> was elected chairman of the entire party. When he became chairman, the chairman of the party's youth wing (Peder Furubotn) was four years older than he was. <mask> chaired the party until 1945. It has often been said, however, that Martin Tranmæl was the "real" chairman of the Labour Party.<mask> had been a member of Sarpsborg city council from 1919 to 1923 and deputy member of Aker municipal council from 1925 to 1928 when he in 1930 moved to Oslo. He served as mayor in 1935 and 1936, and was elected to the Parliament of Norway in the 1936 Norwegian parliamentary election. By that time he had already become acting Minister of Defence in Nygaardsvold's Cabinet, filling in for Fredrik Monsen who was ill. He was then Minister of Social Affairs from November 1936 to July 1939, and Minister of Finance from July 1939 to March 1942. In April 1940 Norway had been invaded by Nazi Germany, and <mask> was responsible for initiating the successful flight of the Norwegian National Treasury. After overseeing the start of the flight, he fled together with the rest of Nygaardsvold's Cabinet. In Åndalsnes he was injured in the foot during the German air raids.The Cabinet ultimately reached Tromsø where they embarked for England, where they stayed until the war's end. <mask> was acting Minister of Defence from November 1941 to February 1942, and then the permanent Minister of Defence from March 1942 to November 1945, in Nygaardsvold's and Gerhardsen's First Cabinet. <mask> was a former antimilitarist, and was imprisoned for five months in 1924 as he called for a military strike, but shed this ideology from the mid-1930s. Before the Second World War, <mask> was also chairman of Bærumsbanen from 1935 to

He was also demoted to Minister of Provisioning and Reconstruction in Gerhardsen's Second Cabinet. He was pressured to leave this office as well, and left on 10 January 1948. He sat through his parliamentary term to which he had been elected in 1945; until 1948 the deputy Eugen Amandus Pettersen had taken his seat. He was also the Labour Party parliamentary leader.He moved to Vestfold in 1948 as he was appointed County Governor there. After a short time, he decided to stand for election again, and in 1949 he was elected for the Market towns of Vestfold county. In the same year he was one of the architects behind the Norwegian NATO membership. Prime Minister
In November 1951 a political shock happened in Norway as Einar Gerhardsen unexpectedly resigned as Prime Minister of Norway. Gerhardsen then asked <mask> to take over. Reportedly, Gerhardsen favored Sverre Støstad, but he rejected the offer. <mask> led his cabinet for four years, and also had to double as acting Minister of Trade and Shipping from 3 to 15 June 1954.Carl Henry took his seat in Parliament. Domestic statesmanship
<mask> was pressured to give the position back to Gerhardsen in January 1955, when Gerhardsen had strengthened himself for a few years as party chairman and President of the Storting. <mask>, who was

Haasan focused on cinema and music, and eventually traveled to the US to continue to learn music at the Musicians Institute in California, before returning to Chennai. Acting career

Debut and early career (2009–2011)
Haasan's first appearance in a feature film was a child artist in a cameo role as the daughter of Vallabhbhai Patel in the Tamil-Hindi bilingual Hey Ram, based on a murder attempt on Mahatma Gandhi, directed by her father Kamal Haasan. After rejecting prominent film offers, most notably the lead role in Venkat Prabhu's Saroja, reports suggested in late 2007 that Haasan was set to make her actual acting debut in 2008 with a film opposite Madhavan, directed by Nishikant Kamat. Entitled Endrendrum Punnagai, the film was stalled before production began.Haasan eventually signed up to feature in Soham Shah's Hindi film Luck, opposite Imran Khan, in July 2008, and shot for the film for nearly a year. Imran Khan, her childhood friend, had recommended her name to the director and Haasan signed on after listening to the entire script and accepted to play a dual role in the action film. <mask> took part in action scenes during filming and worked out extensively. The film opened in July 2009 to unanimously poor reviews from critics and took a poor opening at the box office, with critics stating that she "deserved a better launch vehicle". Reviewers were critical of her performance with Rajeev Masand of IBN stating that she

texts: delivers "dialogues with deadpan expressions", while another critic added that she is perhaps "synthetic and fails to impress". Haasan then went on to appear alongside Blaaze in the promotional videos for Unnaipol Oruvan and Eenadu, the bilingual films starring her father, which she had composed the music for. She made a further appearance in a promotional video for the horror film Hisss, starring Mallika Sherawat, where she had also sung a song composed by Dave Kushner.She made her Telugu debut in January 2011, acting opposite Siddharth in the fantasy adventure film Anaganaga O Dheerudu, directed by Prakash Kovelamudi, son of director K. Raghavendra Rao. The film, co-produced by Walt Disney Pictures, saw <mask> play a gypsy with magic healing powers defended by a swordsman, played by Siddharth. The film opened to positive reviews, with her performance being praised with a critic noting: "<mask> looks quite attractive and makes a wonderful screen presence", while a reviewer from Rediff.com wrote that she "looks beautiful and has a mystical aura about her". Her second Hindi feature film, Madhur Bhandarkar's romantic comedy Dil Toh Baccha Hai Ji, saw her appear in an extended guest appearance alongside an ensemble cast of Emraan Hashmi, Ajay Devgn and Shazahn Padamsee. The film portrayed her as Nikki Narang, the step-daughter of an ex Miss India model, with Hashmi's character falling for both mother and daughter. Her performance gained poor responses from critics with a reviewer citing that her character has been "reduced to post-interval surfacing, last-ditch glamour", whilst another labelled hers as "so fake that she offers only disappointment"; however, the film went on to become a commercial success at the box office. In mid-2010, <mask> was signed by AR Murugadoss to star opposite Suriya in his next film 7aum Arivu, and

 the film's shooting began in June later that year.The director signed after he felt she looked the part of the scientist, mentioning that she seemed "intelligent and beautiful". She played Subha Srinivasan, a young scientist in the film, who hopes to re-activate the genes of 5th century Buddhist monk Bodhidharma, and her performance in the film won appreciation from critics. The film opened to mixed reviews, but became commercially successful. A critic from The Hindu noted: "rarely is a heroine given near-equal footing in Tamil films", describing her as "ravishing but that she ought to work harder on spontaneity, and fine-tune her Tamil accent", but concluded "the point is the actor shows promise". Her next Telugu release was Oh My Friend, a romantic comedy film alongside Siddharth again, which also co-starred Hansika Motwani and Navdeep. The film told the story of childhood friends, and that of their platonic friendship that went on in their adulthood as well, and for the role <mask> Haasan went on to learn the dance of Kuchipudi. The film opened to average reviews with several critics claiming the film evoked a sense of "déjà vu", though a reviewer noted: "<mask>, on her part displays the same conviction."Breakthrough, success and acclaim (2012–2017)

Aishwarya Dhanush's directorial debut 3, a romantic drama film co-starring Dhanush, marked a turning point in <mask>'s career. Aishwarya revealed that she had written the script with <mask> Haasan in mind, but date problems meant that the film began its shoot with Amala Paul instead. However, in a turn of events, <mask> was re-signed to play the character of Janani, and the film gained much hype prior to release due to the collaboration of herself and Aishwarya, being the daughters of the two leading contemporary Tamil actors Kamal Haasan and Rajinikanth, as did the success of

She played the role of Bhagyalakshmi, a village girl, which had been played by Sonakshi Sinha in the original version. The film went on to become a major commercial success at the box office and brought in more film offers for Haasan.Critics also gave her performance a favourable verdict citing that she "justifies her role" and "though she didn't have much of a role, she has left her mark." In 2013, she appeared in the Telugu action film Balupu opposite, Ravi Teja, which eventually became a "super-hit" at the Indian box office. She received positive reviews for her performance, with critics noting that she "provides the fun in the film with glamor and verve".

In the latter, a spy thriller, she played a prostitute involved with a suspended army officer. She also sung a song for the film, entitled "Alvida". Reviewing the film for Rediff.com, Palomi Sharma found Haasan to be "perfect as a Karachi prostitute with a haunting aura about her".She also starred in the Telugu action film Ramayya Vasthavayya opposite Jr. NTR for the first time. The film received an average response from critics. Her first release of 2014, the Telugu film Yevadu, opposite Ram Charan, emerged as a major commercial success.

After high school, <mask> was offered baseball contracts by the New York Yankees and the Pittsburgh Pirates. College career
At Arkansas, the six-foot (1.83 m),  <mask> was a flanker who led all colleges in punt return yardage in 1960 and 1961.

 for fifty-one years until another Razorback, Joe Adams, returned a punt for a score in the 2012 Cotton Bowl Classic. He is a member of the Pi Kappa Alpha fraternity. <mask> is a member of the University of Arkansas Hall of Honor and the Arkansas Sports Hall of Fame; he was named to the University of Arkansas' 1960's All-Decade Team, and the school's All-Century Team in 1994. Professional career

San Diego Chargers
<mask> was chosen in the first round (eighth overall) of the 1962 NFL draft by the San Francisco 49ers. The American Football League's Oakland Raiders selected him with their first pick (ninth overall) in the second round of the 1962 AFL Draft, and then traded his rights to the San Diego Chargers in return for halfback Bo Roberson, quarterback Hunter Enis, and offensive tackle Gene Selawski.<mask> opted to sign with the Chargers instead of the 49ers. The Chargers kept <mask> at flanker. His slender build, speed, grace, and leaping ability earned him the nickname "Bambi." In his rookie season, <mask> had just 10 receptions in 4 games (though three were for touchdowns). His second year was a different story, as he set franchise records in receptions (61), yards (1,205), and touchdowns (11), earning the UPI's AFL Most Valuable Player award. He had 4 receptions for 77 yards, including a 48-yard touchdown, in San Diego's AFL championship win over the Boston Patriots. He was selected as an AFL Western Division All-Star for the first of seven consecutive seasons, as well as an AFL All-League flanker for the first of six seasons, selected by his peers from 1963 to 1966, and by newspaper wire services from 1967 to 1968.Over the next six seasons (1964–69), <mask> broke his own franchise receiving records several times, and also led the league in receptions, receiving yards, receiving touchdowns, and total touchdowns three times each. He shattered the record for most consecutive seasons with

 over 1,000 receiving yards (7, previously 3, now held by Jerry Rice with 11), and was the first player with back-to-back seasons averaging 100+ receiving yards per game, both of which led the league. The 1966 season was particularly noteworthy, because he led the league in five categories. He still shares the record for the most regular-season games with 200+ yards receiving (5), and had a franchise-record streak of 96 consecutive games with a reception. <mask> formed a formidable tandem with Chargers quarterback John Hadl, and is considered by many to be the best wide receiver in all professional football during the 1960s. He is a member of the AFL All-Time Team. He was the first of only a few American Football League stars to be featured on the cover of Sports Illustrated, which like other media of the 1960s, showed a distinct bias for the NFL.Sports Illustrated even went so far as to declare <mask> the "Top Pro Receiver" in December 1965, this at a time when many claimed the AFL had inferior players. <mask>'s productivity sharply declined in 1970 (35 catches for 608 yards), and he was traded to Dallas at the end of the season. See below for his numerous franchise records with the Chargers. Dallas Cowboys
On May 19, 1971, <mask> was traded to the Dallas Cowboys, for his final two seasons. In exchange, the Chargers received Tony Liscio, Pettis Norman, and Ron East. In Super Bowl VI following the 1971 season, he scored the game's first touchdown, which was a 7-yard touchdown pass from Roger Staubach in the Cowboys' 24-3 victory over the Miami Dolphins. <mask> would later call the two receptions he made in Super Bowl VI (one that converted a third and long and the other for the touchdown) the two most important catches of his career.NFL career statistics

<mask> finished his 11 AFL/NFL seasons with 543 receptions for 10,266 yards. He also rushed for 129 yards, returned 29 punts for 309 yards,

<mask> (January 31, 1921 – August 30, 2004) was an American architect and designer. An apprentice of Frank Lloyd Wright during his professional career, <mask> was the only one of Wright's disciples to have received the AIA Gold Medal (1990), the highest honor awarded by the American Institute of Architects. He also achieved international prominence as an architectural educator during his 35 years of teaching at the University of Arkansas School of Architecture. His Thorncrown Chapel was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2000, only 20 years after it was built, in recognition of its architectural significance. It also received a Twenty-five Year Award from the American Institute of Architects and other professional recognition. Early life
E<mask>, (first name Euine, which is pronounced U-wan and is an old Welsh form of John), was born in Pine Bluff, Arkansas, on January 31, 1921. <mask> became the only surviving child in his family after both of his sisters died at an early age.His family moved to Little Rock, and later to El Dorado, Arkansas where he worked in his family's restaurant. <mask> was a longtime member of the Boy Scouts of America and earned the rank of Eagle Scout. <mask>' interest in architecture began with the design of treehouses in grammar school and high school, one of which he built with a working brick fireplace and roll-up doors and screens. In 1938, after being inspired by a short film about the Johnson Wax Headquarters designed by American architect Frank Lloyd Wright, <mask> decided to pursue a career in architecture. <mask> hoped to earn an appointment to the United States Naval Academy and took civil engineering classes at the University of Arkansas to improve his chances. While enrolled, he was a brother of Kappa Sigma fraternity. <mask>' hopes were dashed after his congressman was defeated for reelection and was unable to offer an appointment.<mask> married <mask> "Gus" Knox on January 6, 1943 in San Francisco. The couple had two daughters, Janis and Cami. Military experience

<mask> returned to Little Rock after the war, where he worked as a draftsman for an architectural engineering firm. His talents were noticed, and he was encouraged to return to the University of Arkansas in 1946 to enroll in the new architecture program started by John Williams. <mask> used his GI Bill to obtain a bachelor's degree in architecture in 1950.He had a graduate teaching fellowship at Rice University in Houston, Texas, where he obtained a master's degree in architecture in 1951. While in Houston, at the prompting of Williams, <mask> attended the 1949 American Institute of Architects conference in hopes of catching a glimpse of Wright, who was receiving that year’s Gold Medal. <mask> was introduced to Wright at an after-convention party where he spent 30 minutes discussing Wright's views on architecture. Bruce Goff offered <mask> a teaching position at the University of Oklahoma, which he accepted from 1951 to 1953. Goff became a mentor and a friend to <mask>, giving him another perspective on modern architecture. <mask> applied for an apprenticeship at Wright's winter workshop, Taliesin West, near Scottsdale, Arizona. Later, Wright invited <mask>' entire family to his home and design institute, Taliesin, in Spring Green, Wisconsin.<mask> returned to both Taliesin studios numerous times as both friend and apprentice, becoming a Taliesin Fellow in 1953. <mask> greatly admired Wright, but soon established a private practice in the Ozark Mountains of northwest Arkansas. He joined the faculty of the department of architecture at the University of Arkansas at Wright's suggestion, later serving as the first dean of the U of A School of Architecture. In 1984, the ACSA (Association of Collegiate Schools of Architecture) honored <mask> with the ACSA Distinguished Professor Award. Design career

Former President Bill Clinton wrote about one of <mask>’ homes in his 2004 autobiography My Life. Clinton had lived in Fayetteville in the 1970s while teaching at the University of Arkansas law school, and moved into a <mask> home near the campus. Clinton called it a “perfect place to live, a beautiful little house.”

<mask> used Frank Lloyd Wright's principles, but made unique buildings. His most famous buildings were the Thorncrown Chapel in Eureka Springs, Arkansas; the Mildred B. Cooper Memorial Chapel in Bella Vista, Arkansas; the Pinecote Pavilion at the Crosby Arboretum in Picayune, Mississippi; and the Anthony Chapel located at Garvan Woodland Gardens in Hot Springs, Arkansas which was built by his partner, Maurice Jennings. These buildings were simple and transcendental creations of wood. In a poll of the membership of the American Institute of Architects, Thorncrown Chapel was ranked as the fourth most favored building.Thorncrown was also selected as the best American building constructed since 1980. <mask> also designed the Marty Leonard Chapel in Fort Worth, Texas, which was built in 1990. In 1997, his John B. Begley Chapel was dedicated on the campus of Lindsey Wilson College in Columbia, Kentucky. The Begley Chapel was <mask>' first all-brick chapel. The architect was also known for creating unique designs for furniture and public art projects, such as the Fulbright Peace Fountain located at the University of Arkansas main campus. <mask> viewed architecture to be "the science and art of building, both of these things. But, it's more than mere construction or mere building or the technical putting together of things.It's more than mere accommodation, or, certainly not just stylistic notions; it must transcend these things, and it's something that the human spirit has to be involved with." <mask> was recalled as a gentle and unassuming man.

<mask> (1497 – 31 December 1536), also called <mask> and <mask> of Hoya, was a Swedish noblewoman, sister of king Gustav I of Sweden. Between 1525 and 1534, she commanded Vyborg Castle on several occasions during the absence of her spouse. Life

Early life
<mask> was born to <mask> and Cecilia Månsdotter and thus sister to the future king <mask>. Nothing is known of her childhood, but it is known that she could speak both Swedish and German, that she could read and write (which was not a given thing even by members of the nobility in this period) and that she had a great interest in literature: she placed her own daughters in school at Sko Abbey at the age of five, and it is considered likely that she was herself also spent a period at convent school, which was at the time customary within the Swedish nobility. On 30 March 1516, she married riksråd Joakim Brahe at Tre Kronor (castle) in a wedding hosted by the Swedish regent Sten Sture the Younger: her spouse was a loyal follower of Sture, and the regent was married to her aunt, Christina Gyllenstierna. In November 1520, <mask> and her spouse attended the coronation of Christian II of Denmark as king of Sweden. Her spouse and father belonged to those executed at the Stockholm Bloodbath.Margareta and her children, along with her mother, sister Emerentia, grandmother Sigrid Eskilsdotter (Banér) and aunt Christina Gyllenstierna, belonged to the women and children related to the executed that were imprisoned at Stockholm Castle and then transferred to the infamous Blåtårn ("Blue Tower") of Copenhagen Castle the following summer. In the chronicle of her son Per Brahe the Elder (who was with her during the captivity) the captivity of the Swedish noblewomen in Denmark were described: "They were much deprived of food and drink [...].

 lives but they worked to be fed": king Gustav I of Sweden used their treatment in captivity in his propaganda against Christian II and claimed that the Danish monarch starved the women and children who only survived by the mercy showed them by the queen of Denmark, Isabella of Austria. Whatever the truth of this, it is confirmed that many of the imprisoned women and children died, among them Margareta's mother Cecilia, sister Emerentia and cousin Magdalena, though the cause of death are given as the plague, at that point used to classify a number of different illnesses. The King's sister
In 1524, Margareta was released and returned to Sweden, where her brother was now king Gustav I. In August of that year, she was engaged to the German count John VII of Hoya and Brockenhusen, and the wedding took place 15 January 1525 in Stockholm. The marriage was arranged by her brother for political reasons.During his early reign, the German nobles John VII of Hoya and Berend von Melen belonged to the most trusted allies of the king, and he arranged the marriage between John VII of Hoya and his sister <mask> and Berend von Melen and his second cousin <mask> to secure their loyalty: the marriages were however controversial among the peasantry, who disliked the Germans around the king and criticized them and the foreign marriages when the king married the German princess Catherine of Saxe-Lauenburg. After their marriage, king Gustav granted the governorship of Vyborg Castle (an important stronghold against Russia) to John VII of Hoya and Kalmar Castle (an important stronghold against Denmark) to Berend von Melen. Margareta settled in Vyborg Castle in Finland in the spring of 1525 and was, as was the contemporary custom, made responsible for the office of her spouse and command of the fortress whenever he was absent on the frequent
