<mask> (August 22, 1800 – May 9, 1889) was a Tennessee-born cavalry officer in the US Army, who became known during the Indian Wars and the Mexican–American War. One of four general officers in the US Army at the beginning of the American Civil War, he was removed from overseeing the Department of the West because of his Southern sympathies early in the war, although he kept Missouri from joining the Confederacy. Under President Andrew Johnson, he served on the Indian Peace Commission, negotiating several treaties before spending his retirement partly in St. Louis and partly trading reminiscences with Jefferson Davis and Ulysses S. Grant in Mississippi. Early life
Born on August 27, 1800, in Haysborough (Haysboro), a community on the Cumberland River (then a few miles above Nashville, Tennessee, now incorporated in the city), Harney attended a local private academy. His father <mask> had been an army officer. Early military career
In 1817, <mask>'s brother, Dr. Benjamin F<mask>, an Army surgeon in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, asked Andrew Jackson, a hero of the War of 1812 and the current commander of the Army of the South, to write a letter to the Secretary of the Navy to ask for Harney's acceptance into the Navy, which occurred July 23, 1817. Harney visited his brother and met high-ranking military officers.He so impressed them that they arranged a commission for him as a US Navy second lieutenant, which President James Monroe signed. However, Harney chose to serve under Jackson in the army. His first military assignment under Jackson was in 1818, as a second lieutenant in the 1st U.S. Infantry. He helped to force the pirate Jean Lafitte to move his operations from the Louisiana Territory to the Spanish Main. Harney began his many years of interactions with Native Americans on the Great Plains in 1825, when he accompanied Colonel Henry Atkinson and Benjamin O'Fallon on an expedition to sign treaties with the Upper Missouri tribes. In 1832, Harney fought in the Black Hawk War against the Sauk and Fox tribes, serving as General Zachary Taylor's assistant inspector. There he met, fought, and befriended Jefferson Davis, Taylor's son-in-law and a fellow army officer.Murder of Hannah
In June 1834, while he was a major in the Paymaster Corps, Jefferson Barracks, St. Louis, Missouri, Harney was charged with beating a female slave, Hannah, to death with his cane. On June 30, 1834, the Missouri Republican reported "an inquest was held at the dwelling-house of Major <mask>... on the body of Hannah... said slave possibly came to her death by wounds inflicted by <mask>. Harney." The Missouri Intelligencer and the Cincinnati Journal also reported the incident, the latter labeling Harney as "a monster!" The public outrage, the St. Louis County prosecutor's promised involvement, and a relative's advice on possible mob violence against him caused Harney to flee eastward along the Ohio River to Wheeling, Virginia. In 1835, Harney returned when "the excitement goes off," and on March 24, 1835, he was legally acquitted. Second Seminole War
During the Second Seminole War (1835–1842), Harney gained a reputation as an Indian fighter for daring and ruthless raids.Harney and troops under his command often fought the Seminole War leader and mystic <mask>, also known as Ar-pi-uck-i. During one skirmish, one of Harney's men accidentally shot Itee, the wife of <mask>. When that was brought to Harney's attention, he turned down the opportunity to use her as a bargaining chip during treaty negotiations. Instead, Harney ordered Itee comfortably set outside the US Army camp so that her husband and his men could retrieve her that evening. Mexican–American War
During the Mexican–American War, Harney was appointed colonel and commanded the 2nd Dragoons. They were attached to John E. Wool's command during the Chihuahua Expedition and the Battle of Buena Vista. Harney joined <mask>'s Army as senior cavalry officer at the Siege of Veracruz.However, <mask>'s headstrong and insubordinate temperament caused losses and embarrassment and so when Harney refused to leave Monterrey, despite orders to do so, he was replaced by Major Edwin V<mask>, and General <mask>. Worth placed <mask> under court-martial, and <mask> was ultimately convicted. However, President James K. Polk overrode <mask>'s judgment to remove <mask> from command and concluded that Harney's only fault was in being a Democrat. The incident damaged the relationship between the general and Commander-in-Chief. Placed in temporary command of the 1st Brigade in David Twiggs's division, Harney fought with distinction at the Battle of Cerro Gordo and received a promotion to brevet brigadier general. He returned to cavalry command during the Battle of Contreras, the Battle of Churubusco, and the Battles for Mexico City. However, he was accused of mistreatment of captured prisoners from the St. Patrick's Battalion, which included US Army deserters and escaped slaves.Harney became an original member of the Aztec Club of 1847, which was composed of American officers who had served in Mexico. First Sioux War
On May 14, 1849, on the death of Brevet Major General <mask>. Worth, <mask> assumed command of Military Department Number Five, which comprised almost all of the settled portion of Texas. He was assigned to control Indian raids, which led to the First Sioux War (discussed in part below), although Harney actually commanded Military Department No. 5 for only three short periods, having been replaced by Col. George N. Brooke on July 7, 1849; after Brooke's death from March 9 until September 15, 1851 when he was replaced by Colonel Persifor N<mask>, and then from December 3, 1852 until he was again relieved by <mask> on May 11, 1853. Recalled from leave after he had attempted to visit his family in Paris in 1854, Harney led a punitive expedition against the Sioux after they killed a small US Army detachment in Nebraska Territory, an event called the Grattan Massacre. He led attacks against the Brulé Lakota, who were involved in conflicts with immigrant travelers on the Oregon Trail.In the Battle of Ash Hollow, on September 2 and 3, 1855, <mask>'s troops routed Little Thunder's village at Blue Water Creek (now known as Ash Hollow), in western Nebraska, killing about half of the 250 band members, including women and children who had hidden in a cave into which cannons were fired under the mistaken pretense that they were warriors, given the lack of anthropological awareness of US troops at the time, hence an alternate name of the "Harney Massacre." Harney earned a Lakota name translated as "Mad Bear" because after the attack, he marched across the Badlands to Fort Pierre, the largest trading post in Dakota Territory, and challenged the Lakotas to a winter fight. The success of the campaign encouraged Harney to suggest that mobile units might replace permanent army posts. Harney briefly commanded troops during the Utah War and was again recalled and placed in command of troops sent to deal with the guerrilla warfare of Bleeding Kansas. Next, he was assigned command of the Department of Oregon. Harney sent Captain George E. Pickett and troops to San Juan Island, precipitating the Pig War with British forces. The Army recalled Harney to St. Louis after the altercations with the British.Promoted to brigadier general on June 14, 1858, <mask> was, at 61, the youngest of the four general officers in the regular army at the time, (alongside the War of 1812 veterans <mask>, John Wool, and David Twiggs, the next-youngest, at 70, because of the lack of a fixed retirement age). Civil War
As the Civil War began, <mask> was still in command of the Army's Department of the West based at Jefferson Barracks in St. Louis, Missouri, and his wife's family was prominent in the area. General Twiggs accepted a Confederate commission to head the Department of Louisiana and was accordingly dismissed from the US Army and replaced by Edwin V<mask>. Missouri Governor Claiborne Jackson was pro-secession, but the majority of Missourians favored Union. After the bombardment of Fort Sumter, President Abraham Lincoln called for troops to suppress the rebellion. Jackson refused and began plotting with Confederate authorities to bring about Missouri's secession by a military coup. On May 10, 1861, Captain Nathaniel Lyon, commander of the St. Louis Arsenal, led a force of unofficial Unionist "Home Guards" to capture a force of state militia that were poised to seize the Arsenal by acting without any authorization from Harney, his superior.The Camp Jackson Affair resulted in a bloody riot in St. Louis, which horrified Harney. The state legislature responded by reorganizing the militia as the Missouri State Guard and authorizing it to resist an invasion by federal troops. Harney tried to calm the situation and agreed to the Price–Harney Truce with Guard Commander <mask>, who was married to Harney's wife's niece. They agreed that the State Guard would control most of Missouri while federal troops stayed near St. Louis. The deal also involved Missouri Governor Claiborne Jackson, who favored secession but swore allegiance to the Union. That was not acceptable to Unionist leaders in Missouri, including the Republican leader Francis Preston Blair, Jr., since Price did nothing to prevent the organization of pro-Confederate forces or to protect Unionists in his territory. Worsening matters was Harney's Tennessee heritage, which made his loyalty to the Union suspect.Blair reported all to the Lincoln administration in Washington, DC, and was authorized to replace <mask> with Lyon, which Blair did on 30 May. Recalled to Washington to discuss the situation, <mask> was captured by Confederates at Harper's Ferry on April 25, 1861. He was offered a command by Confederate General Robert E. Lee but turned down the offer. However, because he was a Tennessean, his captors released him and allowed him to continue on to Washington. <mask> remained in Washington and served in various administrative positions. When it became clear that he would not receive another field command, he retired in 1863 and lived in St. Louis. In recognition of his long and distinguished career, he was awarded and breveted to major general in 1865.Later years
President Andrew Johnson appointed Harney to the Indian Peace Commission and so he returned to the Great Plains in 1865 and 1867 to negotiate treaties. In part because Harney urged the US Congress to honor past treaties, the Sioux called him the "man-who-always-kept-his-word." He helped secure the Little Arkansas Treaty with the Comanche and Kiowa in 1865, the Medicine Lodge Treaty in 1867 and the Fort Laramie Treaty with the Brule Sioux in 1868. In 1868, Harney received a temporary assignment to establish three Sioux agencies on the Missouri River, which he did at Whetstone Creek, Cheyenne River, and Grand River. Harney then retired to Pass Christian, Mississippi, on the Gulf Coast and often reminisced with his old friend Jefferson Davis about their old service at Fort Crawford, including their near duel; they forgot their opposite service during the Civil War. After Davis's death, Harney moved to Orlando, Florida, where he died. Personal life
In 1833, in St. Louis, he married Mary Mullanphy, daughter of John Mullanphy, an Irish immigrant who became a wealthy merchant in Baltimore and St. Louis' first millionaire.Harney converted to Catholicism, and they had three children including John Mullanphy <mask> (1847–1905). However, Harney only saw his wife twice after 1850, and she would relocate to France with their children in 1853, where she died in 1860. Her children would return to St. Louis, and their granddaughter Marie Antoinette <mask> Beauregard (1868–1940) would marry the son of Confederate general Pierre Beauregard. In 1884, Harney married <mask>. Cyr (1826–1907). Death and legacy
<mask> died at his home near Orlando, Florida, in 1889, just months after Harney County, Oregon was named for him. He was interred at Arlington National Cemetery, as would be his widow in 1907. His will, witnessed by Ulysses S. Grant and filed in St. Louis, gave his son "John Hearney" and daughter "Eliza Hearney" $5 each, and the rest of his property, wherever located, to his widow.Harney is an intriguing figure representing perhaps an individualist standing apart, in an age of rough dichotomies. One time "Indian Fighter", later "Indian Defender" known by the Sioux as "Man Who Keeps His Word" for trying to keep initial peace treaty-terms as they were written and opposing the reneging of said terms, by later officials. After that, Harney was known among the Sioux as "Woman Killer." due to his actions (known as the "Harney Massacre") at an Indian village in 1855 at Blue Water Creek, south of the Black Hills: "While engaged in a delaying parley with Chief Little Thunder" Harney's troops "circled undetected" toward the village, "where the infantry opened fire and forced the Indians toward mounted soldiers, who inflicted terrible casualties. 86 Indians were killed, 70 women and children were captured, and their tipis were looted and burned."

He is a member and Deputy President of the Malaysian Indian Congress (MIC), a component party of the Barisan Nasional (BN) coalition. He is the sole minister of the Indian ethnicity and MIC and one of the only two MIC candidates to be elected in the 2018 general election. Saravanan began his political career in 1994 as a Secretary in MIC for the district of Titiwangsa. Prior to his active participation in Malaysian politics, Saravanan has worked several jobs as an office clerk, a member of the Malaysian police force, The Polis Diraja Malaysia (PDRM), and a Marketing Executive.He possesses a bachelor's degree in Business Administration from Hammersmith & West London College in England. Saravanan was a Senator prior to his election to the Dewan Rakyat (the lower house of Malaysia's Parliament). In the 2008 General Election, he contested for the seat of Tapah and won, defeating a candidate from the People's Justice Party (PKR). However, the MIC suffered widespread losses at the election, which left Saravanan as one of only three MIC members in the Dewan Rakyat. Despite his party's reduced presence in Parliament and the ruling Barisan Nasional coalition, Saravanan was appointed as a Deputy Minister from 2008 until 2013. Within the MIC, Saravanan is seen as an ally of its President Samy Vellu, being elected as a vice-president of the MIC on Vellu's ticket and defending Vellu from opposition attacks. However he lost in the party re-election close fight for the position of Deputy President in 2015 to another MIC Vice-President, S. K. Devamany.Early life

<mask>, <mask> (1621 – 31 January 1707), was a French nobleman, known as the protagonist of the Mémoires written by Anthony Hamilton (his brother-in-law). He was a younger half-brother of Antoine III of Gramont and uncle of <mask>, princess of Monaco. Birth and origins
Philibert was born in 1621, probably at the Château de Bidache, as the second son of <mask> and his second wife, <mask>uteville. His father was the head of the illustrious Gramont family and ruler of the Principality of Bidache. At the time of Philibert's birth he was comte de Guiche but later became duc de Gramont de Guiche. His first wife had been <mask>re. Philibert's mother was his father's second wife.She was the eldest daughter of , <mask> Bouteville and sister of <mask> Montmorency-Bouteville. The Montmorency-Bouteville family was a cadet branch of the illustrious House of Montmorency. Philibert's paternal grandmother, Diane d'Andouins, comtesse de Gramont, was "la belle Corisande," one of the mistresses of Henry IV. The grandson assumed that his father, Antoine II <mask>, viceroy of Navarre, was the son of Henry IV, and regretted that he had not claimed the privileges of royal paternity. <div style="float: right; margin: 0 0 0 1em">

His parents married in 1618. Early life
Philibert was destined for the church, and was educated at the college of Pau, in Béarn. He refused the ecclesiastical life, however, and joined the army of Prince Thomas of Savoy, then in 1643 besieging Trino in Piedmont.He afterwards served under his elder half-brother, Antoine, marshal de <mask>, and the prince <mask>dé. He was present at the battles of Freiburg and Nördlingen, and served with distinction in Spain and Flanders in 1647. In 1654 he fought at Arras where Turenne relieved the town besieged by the Spanish. He favoured Condé's party at the beginning of the Fronde, but changed sides before he was too severely compromised. In spite of his record in the army, he never received any important commission either military or diplomatic, perhaps because of an incurable levity in his outlook. He was, however, made a governor of the Pays d'Aunis and lieutenant of Béarn. He visited England during the Commonwealth.Exile and marriage
In 1662 he was exiled from France for paying court to Anne-Lucie <mask> Mothe-Houdancourt, one of the king's mistresses. He went to England where he found at the court of Charles II an atmosphere congenial to his talents for intrigue, gallantry and pleasure. He arrived in London in January 1663. Philibert quickly entered into the English court's inner circle. Not much adaptation was needed as French was the predominant language at the Restoration court. Elizabeth Hamilton, the sister of Anthony Hamilton, admired his wit and gallantry and fell in love with him. Philibert married her in London in December 1663 or early in 1664.In March 1664, having heard of his marriage, Louis XIV wrote him a letter giving him permission to return. The couple had a son on 28 August old style, but he died as an infant. There is a famous anecdote told about her marriage, which reverts the order of events by placing the marriage, which was, according to this tale, forced on <mask> by her brothers, after the permission to return. It goes as follows:

When in 1664 he was allowed to return to France, he left in haste, giving the impression that he would not honour his commitments. Her brothers George and Anthony therefore pursued and intercepted him on his way to Dover and pressured him to return and marry her. They asked him whether he had not forgotten something in London. He replied "Pardonnez-moi, messieurs, j'ai oublié d'épouser votre sœur."(Forgive me, Sirs, I have forgotten to marry your sister). He turned around, went back to London, and dutifully married her. The story is partly proven wrong since he married her before Louis allowed him to come back, but it could well be true that a bit of pressure from her brothers was needed. It has been said that this incident suggested to Molière his comedy Le mariage forcé, first presented 29 January 1664, but this idea clashes with the known dates. Back in France
In 1664 he was allowed to return to France. He revisited England in 1670 in connection with the Sale of Dunkirk, and again in 1671 and 1676. In 1688 he was sent by Louis XIV to congratulate James II on the birth of an heir.From all these small diplomatic missions he succeeded in obtaining considerable profits, being destitute, and having no scruples whenever money was in question. At the age of 75 he fell dangerously ill, which caused him to become reconciled to the church. His penitence does not seem to have survived his recovery. In June 1673, he fought at the Siege of Maastricht during which Louis XIV took the town from the Dutch. In 1679, his elder brother Henri died unmarried. Henri had appointed him his heir and he therefore became comte de Toulongeon and inherited his brother's château at Séméac. He did not want to change his name to Toulongeon, but changed it from chevalier de <mask> to comte de <mask>, and his wife became comtesse.On 31 December 1688 he was made a knight of the Order of the Holy Spirit in a ceremony performed in the Chapel of the Château de Versailles. This gave him the right to wear the blue sash called the cordon bleu that hangs over his right shoulder on his portrait. Children
His wife gave him two children, daughters both:
<mask> (c. 1665 – 1739), who married Henry Stafford-Howard, 1st Earl of Stafford
Marie Elizabeth (1667–1729), who in 1695 became abbess of the  in Lorraine

Both were maids-of-honour to Maria Anna Victoria of Bavaria, whom the Grand Dauphin married in 1680. Saint-Simon comments that they did not have much success at the court. He also had a bastard daughter, born in Piedmont, at the siege of Trino: Giacomo or Jacques, daughter of Countess Theresia <mask>' Medici, granddaughter of don <mask>' Medici via his son Antonfrancesco. Memoirs
He was 80 years old when he supplied his brother-in-law, Anthony Hamilton, with the material for his Mémoires. Hamilton said that they had been dictated to him, but no doubt he was the real author.The account of <mask>'s early career was doubtless provided by himself, but Hamilton was probably more familiar with the history of the court of Charles II, which forms the most interesting part of the book. Moreover, <mask>, though he had a reputation for wit, was no writer, and there is no reason to suppose that he was capable of producing a work which remains a masterpiece of style and of witty portraiture. His biographer Hamilton was far superior as a writer to the comte <mask>, but he relates the story of his hero without comment, and no condemnation of the prevalent code of morals is allowed to appear, unless by an occasional touch of irony. The portrait is drawn with such skill that the count, in spite of his biographer's candour, imposes by his grand air on the reader much as he appears to have done on his contemporaries. The book is the most entertaining of contemporary memoirs, and in no other book is there a description so vivid, truthful, and graceful of the licentious court of Charles II. There are other and less flattering accounts of the count. His scandalous tongue knew no restraint, and he was a privileged person who was allowed to state even the most unpleasing truths to Louis XIV.When the Mémoires were finished, it is said that <mask> sold the manuscript for 1500 francs; and kept most of the money for himself. Fontenelle, then censor of the press, refused to license the book from considerations of respect to the strange old man, whose gambling, cheating and meanness were so ruthlessly exposed. But <mask> himself appealed to the chancellor and the prohibition was lifted. Death and timeline
He died on 10 January 1707 in Paris, and the Mémoires'' appeared six years later. Notes, citations, and sources

<mask> "Tough Tony" <mask> (December 1, 1904 – May 31, 1985), a miner and union representative from Montana, became president of the United Mine Workers of America union in 1963, serving until 1972. He was convicted in 1974 of charges of conspiracy in the murder of opponent Joseph A. Yablonski, his wife Margaret, and their daughter Charlotte, on New Year's Eve, December 31, 1969. After an appeal, his conviction and sentence were upheld at a second trial; he was sentenced to three life terms and died while still incarcerated. Yablonski had opposed <mask> for some time, arguing for more democratic representation among the locals, and had run against him in a bitter presidency election of the UMWA earlier in December, which <mask> won. Yablonski charged that fraud had been committed, asking for a Department of Labor investigation, and also filing five lawsuits against the union on specific related civil charges. Early years
<mask> was born in a gold mining camp in Bald Butte, Montana (about two miles southwest of Marysville), in 1904 to James and Catherine (Mallin<mask>. His father was a miner.The <mask> family was of Irish descent, and several generations of <mask>s had worked as miners in England and Scotland. <mask> attended public schools in Montana and Idaho before graduating from high school. He went to work in the mines alongside his father. Shortly thereafter, <mask>'s father died from tuberculosis, a lung disease often associated with mining, or exacerbated by its conditions. Marriage
<mask> married <mask> in 1928; they had a daughter, <mask>tte. Career
<mask> joined the United Mine Workers of America (UMWA) soon after going to work in the mines. He was appointed president of District 27 (which covers Montana) and served in that capacity until 1948.During World War II, <mask> served on several government wartime production boards, and on the Montana State Unemployment Compensation Commission. In 1948, UMWA president John L. Lewis named <mask> as his assistant in the UMWA. He served until 1960, acting as Lewis' chief trouble-shooter and the union's chief administrator. Lewis simultaneously appointed him director of UMWA District 50 and regional director of the Congress of Industrial Organizations (CIO) for four Western states. Presidency of UMWA
<mask> was elected vice president of UMWA in 1960. That same year, Lewis retired and 73-year-old Thomas Kennedy assumed leadership of the union. Kennedy had been vice president since 1947.Although Lewis favored <mask> as his successor, Kennedy was well liked and well known. Kennedy was in failing health, however, and <mask> took over many of the president's duties. In November 1962, Kennedy became too frail and ill to continue his duties. <mask> was named acting-president. Kennedy died on January 19, 1963. <mask> was elected president shortly thereafter, obviously Lewis's handpicked choice. From the beginning of his tenure, <mask> faced significant opposition from rank-and-file miners and UMWA leaders.Miners' attitudes about their union had changed. Miners wanted greater democracy and more local autonomy for their local unions. There was a widespread belief that <mask> was more concerned with protecting mine owners' interests than those of his members. Grievances filed by the union often took months—sometimes years—to resolve, lending credence to the critics' claim. Wildcat strikes occurred as local unions, despairing of UMWA assistance, sought to resolve local disputes with walkouts. Yablonski challenge and murder
In 1969, Joseph "Jock" Yablonski challenged <mask> for the presidency of UMWA. Yablonski had been president of UMWA District 5 (an appointed position) until <mask> had removed him in 1965.In an election widely seen as corrupt,  <mask> defeated Yablonski in the election held on December 9 by a margin of nearly two-to-one (80,577 to 46,073). Although <mask> won, the election was the first time since 1920 that the incumbents had less than 80 percent or more of the vote, or that there was any opposition at all. Observers expected the union to make changes in response to the growing insurgency movement and demands for change. Yablonski conceded the election, but on December 18, 1969, asked the United States Department of Labor (DOL) to investigate the election for fraud. He also initiated five lawsuits against UMWA in federal court. On December 31, 1969, three killers shot Yablonski, his wife, Margaret, and his 25-year-old daughter, Charlotte, as they slept in the Yablonski home in Clarksville, Pennsylvania. The bodies were discovered on January 5, 1970, by Yablonski's eldest son, Kenneth.<mask> was found to have ordered Yablonski's death months earlier, on June 23, 1969, after a meeting with his opponent at UMWA headquarters had degenerated into a screaming match. In September 1969, UMWA executive council member <mask> received $20,000 from <mask> (who had embezzled the money from union funds) to hire assassins to kill Yablonski. Paul Gilly, an out-of-work house painter and son-in-law of a minor UMWA official, and two drifters, <mask> Martin and Claude Vealey, agreed to do the job. Pass arranged for the murder to be postponed until after the election, to avoid suspicion falling on <mask>. Overturned election and defeat
Yablonski's murder acted as a catalyst for the federal investigation already requested. On January 8, 1970, Yablonski's attorney requested an immediate investigation of the 1969 election by DOL. The Department of Labor had taken no action on Yablonski's complaints in the brief time since his December request.After the murders, Labor Secretary George P. Shultz assigned 230 investigators to the UMWA investigation. The Labor Management Reporting and Disclosure Act (LMRDA) of 1959 regulates the internal affairs of labor unions, requiring regular secret-ballot elections for local union offices and providing for federal investigation of election fraud or impropriety. DOL is authorized under the act to sue in federal court to have the election overturned. By 1970, however, only three international union elections had been overturned by the courts. Meanwhile, a reform group, Miners for Democracy (MFD), had formed in April 1970 while the DOL investigation continued. Its members included most of the miners who belonged to the West Virginia Black Lung Association and many of Yablonski's supporters and campaign staff. The chief organizers of Miners for Democracy included Yablonski's sons, Ken and Joseph (known as "Chip"), both labor attorneys; Mike Trbovich, a union leader, and others.DOL filed suit in federal court in 1971 to overturn the 1969 UMWA election. On May 1, 1972, Judge <mask>. Bryant threw out the results of the 1969 UMWA international union elections. Bryant scheduled a new election to be held over the first eight days of December 1972. Additionally, Bryant agreed that DOL should oversee the election, to ensure fairness. Over the weekend of May 26 to May 28, 1972, MFD delegates gathered in Wheeling, West Virginia, nominated <mask>, a former miner and leader of a black-lung organization, as their candidate for the presidency of UMWA. On December 22, 1972, the Labor Department certified Miller as UMWA's next president. The vote was 70,373 for Miller and 56,334 for <mask>.Miller was the first candidate to defeat an incumbent president in UMWA history, and the first native West Virginian to lead the union. Convictions and death
In early March 1971, <mask> was indicted for embezzling $49,250 in union funds to make illegal campaign contributions in the 1968 presidential race. He was convicted in December 1973 to a three-year sentence and imprisoned at the federal penitentiary in Springfield, Missouri. On September 6, 1973, <mask> was arrested on first degree murder charges in the deaths of Jock Yablonski and his family. That month, <mask> attempted suicide but failed. National attention had been riveted on the investigations into the conspiracy to slay labor leader Joseph A. Yablonski. A nationwide FBI investigation produced sufficient evidence to charge three Cleveland-area residents with conspiracy to slay Yablonski.Through Grand Jury proceedings, a series of three conspiracy indictments were returned, charging five individuals. The investigation was conducted by U.S. Attorney Robert B. Krupansky, with Assistant U.S. Attorney Robert Jones (Ohio lawyer). Finally documentation and witnesses led to <mask>: “TONY BOYLE CHARGED IN YABLONSKI KILLING” they screamed on September 6th, 1973. His trial lasted from 25 March until April 11, 1974, when he was convicted. He was sentenced to three consecutive terms of life in prison. On January 28, 1977, the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania overturned <mask>'s conviction and ordered that he be given a new trial. The court found that the trial judge had improperly refused to allow a government auditor to testify.<mask>'s attorneys said that the auditor's testimony could have exonerated <mask>. On January 16, 1978 <mask>'s murder retrial was set to resume. He had been convicted, but the Pennsylvania state Supreme Court had set aside the convictions on grounds <mask> was denied the right to present a complete defense. <mask> was tried a second time for the Yablonski slayings and found guilty on February 18, 1978. <mask> filed a third appeal to overturn his conviction in July 1979, but the motion was denied. <mask> served his murder sentence at State Correctional Institution – Dallas in Luzerne County, Pennsylvania. He suffered from a number of stomach and heart ailments in his final years and was repeatedly hospitalized.He had a stroke in 1983. He died at a hospital in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania on May 31, 1985, aged 80. In popular culture
Barbara Kopple's 1976 documentary Harlan County USA included a segment on Yablonski's murder and its aftermath. It also includes the song "Cold Blooded Murder" (also known as "The Yablonski Murder"), sung by Hazel Dickens. The murders were also portrayed in a 1986 HBO television movie, Act of Vengeance. Charles Bronson (a native of Ehrenfeld, in the western Pennsylvania mining region) portrayed Yablonski and <mask> Brimley played <mask>. References

<mask>, also known as Alexander Neufeld (25 September 1899 – 27 October 1977) was a Hungarian football player and manager. He had a playing career in Hungary, Austria, Switzerland, United States and Yugoslavia, and he represented the national teams of Hungary and Austria. Playing career
Born in Budapest to a Jewish family, <mask> begin playing for a local club named ILK. When the club was disbanded in 1916 he joined Ferencvárosi TC where after playing initially in the youth team in same year due to his skills he got promoted to the senior squad. At first he played as striker but shortly after he changed his playing position to right-winger. He soon became an established player within the team, forming the attacking line along with Mihály Pataki and Isidor Gansl. In both 1918 and 1919 they finished second in the Hungarian Championship behind the then dominating MTK Budapest.With Ferencváros he played a total of 57 league matches having scored 18 goals

On 12 May 1918 he made his debut for the Hungarian national team playing in attack along Alfred Schaffer and Imre Schlosser in the 2–1 win over Switzerland in Budapest. A few weeks later, on 2 June, in Vienna, he played again this time winning Austria by 2–0. On 5 October 1919, he played his third match for the Hungarian national team, again in Vienna against Austria, however this time they were defeated by 0–2. In that period because of the political situation, many Hungarian players were emigrating abroad, and <mask> was no exception and he signed with second league Austrian club SC Hakoah Vienna. As a way to overcame a bureaucratic problem over the signing, he accepted a job in a bank in Vienna. He played his first match with Hakoah in November 1919 and became soon one of the most important players in their aspiration to get promotion to the first league. By then, the Hungarian Football Federation was having a violent confrontation with Austrian clubs over the players that begin playing for Austrian clubs without being officially released from their origin clubs in Hungary.Until the end of 1919 these players, among them Ferenc Plattkó, Jenö brothers, Kálmán Konrád, and <mask> <mask> included, were not allowed to play under the insistency of the Hungarian Federation to sanction them. This situation lasted until March 1920 when the players could finally return to play. In his first season with Hakoah, <mask> reached the semi-finals of the Austrian Cup. Middle of that year 1920, <mask> rejoined his former club Ferencváros as they played a tournée in Switzerland. However instead of returning to Hungary he decided to stay in Switzerland and signed with FC Basel where his former national team colleague Alfred Schaffer played. Nemes played only one month with the team in two test games. He then received an invitation from the German businessman Otto Eidinger to participate in a newly formed Hungarian professional team that had programmed during the next year exhibition matches all over Europe.<mask> <mask> accepted the invitation, along with a number of other notable players like Plattkó, Pataki, József Ging, Gyula Feldmann and József Viola. However, after only a few weeks the tournée was abandoned with players complaining about not being paid. Most of the players returned to Austria and Hungary where they were sanctioned by the respective federations with <mask> receiving a suspension to last until April 1921. He didn't respect the suspension, and as most other players did, he moved to Czechoslovakia and signed with Maccabi Brno. However soon afterwards an agreement was reached about an amnesty for players that would accept to return, and thus <mask> returned to Hakoah in summer 1921 and became part of Hakoah team that this time played in the Austrian Bundesliga. In his first complete season in 1921–22 Hakoah finished second in the league, only 2 points behind the leader. In the next season Hakoah finished in mid table, but <mask> impressed by scoring 16 goals and finishing in third place as league top scorer.In 1924, professionalization begin in Austrian football and in that same year Hakoah won the Austrian championship. They also won in the same year their first European title by beating West Ham United by 5–0 with <mask> scoring three goals in that final match. By then, <mask> had already played four times with the city selection of Vienna, and Austrian national team manager Hugo Meisl convoked him for the match on 5 July 1925, in Stockholm against Sweden, where he made his debut for the Austrian national team in the 4–2 win. He will play his second match for Austria on 8 November, that same year, in a 0–2 loss against Switzerland in Bern. He played both matches under the name of Alexander Neufeld. In spring 1926 Hakoah made a successful tournée in the United States with a number of players receiving contract offers on behalf of American soccer clubs. <mask> returned to Austria and finished that season, however he had informed that at the end of the season he will leave Hakoah and move to the United States by accepting the offer of Brooklyn Wanderers to play in the American Soccer League.Along with Nemes, three other Hakoah players also moved to Brooklyn, namely Hoffer, Leopold Drucker and Heinrich Schoenfeld. After one season in America, <mask> returned to Hakoah, however he couldn't stop the fall of the club that lost its best players, and they ended up relegated that season. Nemes returned to the States in 1929 and played with Hakoah All-Stars until 1930. In fall of 1930 he played with Fall River Marksmen helping them to win the 1930 American Soccer League. Afterwards he will play with BSK Belgrade in the Yugoslav Championship and Alexandria in Egypt. Coaching career
In 1930 <mask> moved to the Kingdom of Yugoslavia where he became a coach of one of the strongest clubs in the country BSK Belgrade and soon he makes his first major coaching success by winning the 1930–31 Yugoslav Championship. Seems that he returned to Austria in 1931 and worked one season as coach with a Second league Jewish club named Hasmonea, however the club ended up relegated due to the reduction in number of clubs for the next season and <mask> returned to BSK.After coming back to Belgrade in 1932, he will further win the Championship in 1933 and 1935 before having a year coaching experience with Hapoel Hatzair in Palestina, with Austrian Josef Uridil replacing him for that year at BSK. In 1936 however he returned to Belgrade where he will win another championship in 1939. In June 1938 he graduated in a six-months coaching course organised by the Yugoslav Football Association. Afterwards, he had a brief spell coaching Turkish Galatasaray before returning to Israel in 1950 to coach Hapoel Tel Aviv. Name
His real name is <mask> <mask>, although for unknown reasons he begin to be known by the mid-1920s as Alexander Neufeld. Also, a number of Serbian sources name him in a third variant, as Antal <mask>. A match report from IFFHS refers to him as <mask>.It also seems that some sources confused him with another Hungarian born footballer, Ferry Neufeld, who was initially named Ferenc <mask>, thus appearing <mask> as having played 2 matches and scoring one goal for the Palestine national team, when in fact it was Ferry Neufeld who played for Palestine in those matches. He is also sometimes confused with another Hungarian coach, Károly <mask>, also known as Karlo/Carl or Dragutin <mask>, and it is sometimes wrongly attributed to <mask> as being the coach of SK Bata Borovo in the late 1930s and early 1940s, although it is uncertain who of the two coached the club in 1945 after the war interval. A coach known as G. Nemetz has coached Fenerbahçe S.K. between 1939 and 1940 although there is still no confirmation if it was Sandor <mask>. Honours

<mask><mask> (born 1959) is an American former politician and a former law-enforcement officer with the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department. He was convicted April 4, 2016, in Federal Court of conspiracy to obstruct justice and obstruction of justice. <mask> served as Undersheriff of Los Angeles County from 2011 to 2013. He was also mayor of the City of Gardena, California. His tenure has provoked controversy due to allegations of violence, corruption, and alleged membership in the white supremacist police gang Lynwood Vikings. Personal life
<mask> was born at the Queen of Angels Hospital in Los Angeles. At the age of 7, he and his family moved to Gardena, where he lived for 47 years.<mask> received an accounting degree from Loyola Marymount University and was also a Certified Public Accountant. He served as Chief Financial Officer for the Go For Broke Foundation and the East West Players, and served on the board of the Harriet Buhai Center for Family Law. <mask> was married to <mask>, with whom he has 2 children. Elected official
<mask> was active in local government since his election to the Gardena city council in March 1999. In March 2005, he was elected mayor with 62% of the vote. He was re-elected to a second term in 2009. Law enforcement
A career law enforcement officer, <mask> initially joined the El Segundo police department in 1980.Transferring to the LA County Sheriff's Department (LASD) two years later, he rose through the ranks, earning his stripes in 1987, and making Lieutenant in 1991. <mask> then rose from Lieutenant to Captain in 1999, Commander in 2001 and Chief in 2002. From January 7, 2005, to June 2011, he was an Assistant Sheriff. He is the first Japanese American in the position. He has been criticized for his affiliation with the Lynwood Vikings, a secret police organization and white supremacist gang brought to light amidst police misconduct litigation in 1990. Sheriff Lee Baca acknowledged <mask> still has a tattoo related to the group, which a federal judge described as a "neo-Nazi, white supremacist gang." <mask> was tattooed as a member of the Vikings deputy gang in 1987, while serving as a Sergeant at the Lynwood station.On March 7, 1988, <mask> was involved in a controversial killing of a Korean American in Long Beach, sparking outrage among Korean American community leaders. Hong Pyo Lee was shot and killed by <mask> and four other deputies following a car chase. The deputies said Lee tried to run them over. The deputies were later found to have been justified in shooting by the district attorney’s office. Los Angeles County Undersheriff (2011-2013)
<mask> was appointed Undersheriff, the second-in-command at the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department in June 2011 by Sheriff Lee Baca. During his 2-year term as Undersheriff, the Department was dogged with several controversies. He announced his resignation on March 6, 2013.Controversies
On October 18, 2011, at a Board meeting, Supervisors Zev Yaroslavsky and Mark Ridley-Thomas held a motion to create a Citizens’ Commission on Jail Violence with the mandate of reviewing the nature, depth and cause of Sheriff’s deputies’ inappropriate use of excessive force in County jails and to recommend corrective actions. In early 2011, the FBI launched an undercover probe at the Men's Central Jail, to investigate allegations of corruption and abuse. The U.S. Department of Justice's civil rights division also launched a wide-scale pattern and practice investigation into allegations that Antelope Valley deputies discriminated against minority residents who receive government housing assistance. During <mask>'s tenure as Undersheriff, the American Civil Liberties Union filed a federal class-action lawsuit against Sheriff Lee Baca and top commanders, including <mask>, for perpetuating a long-standing, widespread pattern of violence by deputies against inmates in the county jails. In September 2012, the Citizens’ Commission on Jail Violence issued a final report that is very critical of the Sheriff Department’s management, including Baca, <mask> and other executive-level staff, accusing them of fostering a culture in which deputies beat and humiliated inmates, covered up misconduct and formed aggressive deputy cliques in the county jails. <mask> was in charge of the Department's Patrol Division and its budget. The report also called for the removal of <mask> from the chain of command supervising the jail system, for statements that <mask> had delivered, indicating that deputies could use excessive force against prisoners and that aggressive behavior would not result in discipline.The report also noted that <mask> had accepted campaign contributions from many department employees, furthering perceptions of patronage and favoritism in promotion and assignment decisions. On March 6, 2013, <mask> announced that he would retire as the Undersheriff, effective August 1, 2013, during an ongoing federal probe conducted by the FBI into widespread allegations of abuse, misconduct and mismanagement in County jails. Although his decision to resign was portrayed as being under his volition, Baca told <mask> to step down because <mask> had become a political liability. Plot to hide informant
The plot to derail the federal investigation of the LASD supposedly began in August 2011, when Sheriff deputies retrieved a mobile phone from an inmate at Men’s Central Jail and were able to connect the phone to the FBI. Discovering that the inmate-turned-FBI informant was Anthony Brown, deputies had purposely hidden Brown from his FBI handlers, by moving him around different jails and changing Brown's name. Criminal charges
On May 13, 2015, <mask> was indicted on federal conspiracy and obstruction charges in the ongoing Los Angeles County Men's Jail corruptions investigation. <mask> was the eighth LASD official to be criminally charged based on actions taken in the summer of 2011.Conviction
On April 6, 2016, <mask> was convicted on conspiracy and obstruction of justice charges by a federal jury in a case presided over by U.S. District Judge Percy Anderson. "The criminal charges centered on allegations that in 2011 <mask> orchestrated a scheme to derail the FBI's jail investigation by intimidating the lead agent in the case, pressuring deputies not to cooperate and concealing the whereabouts of an inmate who was working as a federal informant." As a result, Councilman Mark E. Henderson was appointed Mayor Pro Tem and served as acting Mayor of Gardena until the March 2017 election. Sentencing
On June 27, 2016, <mask> was sentenced to five years in prison, for civil rights abuses inside the nation's largest urban jail system. He was also sentenced to serve two years of supervised release after he is discharged from prison and pay a $7,500 fine. He faced a maximum of 15 years in federal prison. <mask> planned to file a motion to sidestep his Aug. 1 jail surrender deadline and remain out on bail while he appeals his conviction.He surrendered Monday, January 16, 2017, to federal authorities in Colorado to begin serving the prison sentence at a minimum-security camp in Englewood, Colorado. 2014 Sheriff's campaign
On August 15, 2013, <mask> announced his candidacy to unseat his former boss, Lee Baca, as the Sheriff in the 2014 election. <mask> lost the election to Jim McDonnell, McDonnell received 49.4 percent of the vote and <mask> received 15.1 percent to come in second. See also

Saray <mask> ( 1341 – 1408) was the Empress consort of the Timurid Empire as the chief consort of Timur, also known as Tamerlane the Great, the founder of the Timurid Empire as well as the Timurid dynasty. By birth, she was a princess of Moghulistan as a daughter of Qazan Khan ibn Yasaur and was also a direct descendant of Genghis Khan. Family and lineage

Saray <mask> was born a princess of Moghulistan in  1341 to Qazan Khan ibn Yasaur, the last Khan of the Chagatai Khanate. Saray's grandfather was Khan Yasa'ur, her father's predecessor and a great-great-grandson of Chagatai Khan. She was therefore, a direct descendant of Genghis Khan, the Great Khan (Emperor) and founder of the Mongol Empire. Saray was thus, a member of the House of Borjigin, the most renowned family clan in Eurasia. Being the daughter of a Khan, Saray held the title of Khanum ("daughter of a Khan or princess") by birth.Marriage to Timur

Before her marriage to Timur, Saray had been previously married to her husband's predecessor, Amir Husayn of Balkh. When in 1370, Timur defeated and thereafter executed Husayn after the Siege of Balkh, he seized the harem of his predecessor and took to himself the latter's wives, one of whom being Saray <mask> <mask>. Saray was five years younger than Timur and was said to be very beautiful, sometimes described as possessing "surpassing" beauty. As the daughter of a Khan and a descendant of Genghis Khan, Saray enjoyed the status of Timur's senior wife, although in her first husband's harem the chief wife was a daughter of Khan Tarmashirin, who after Husayn's fall was married to the Jalayir Khan Bahram. Through his marriage to Saray, Timur acquired the right to the surname Gurgan ("son-in-law") of Qazan Khan, which appears on his coins and often in the Mamluk sources. The title of gurgan was very important for Timur because it was indicative of his relations with the family of the Chughtai. In 1397, Timur married Tukal-<mask>, a daughter of the Mongol Khan Khizr Khoja, who skipped over several other wives due to her exalted lineage and took the second place in the harem, inferior in status only to Saray.Saray, therefore, held the position of being Timur's chief consort until his death. Little is known of Saray and Timur's relationship, apart from the fact that she was his confidante and one of his closest advisers, but it is clear that she wielded great influence over her husband and in the Empire. She is also cited by most sources to have been Timur's "favourite" and his beloved wife. Saray also sometimes acted as regent during Timur's absences from Samarkand as a result of his western campaigns and wielded great authority at Court. As Timur's chief consort, Saray additionally held the title of "Great Empress" similar to the title held by Genghis Khan's chief wife, Börte. The Spanish ambassador, Ruy Gonzáles de Clavijo, who was sent by Henry III of Castile to visit Timur's court in 1405, called Saray, "The Grand Khanum". In May 1394, Saray along with Timur's other wives followed her husband with the ughruq to Armenia and Transcaucasia where Ibrahim was born.In September, they returned to Sultaniya, but some time later were again summoned to join Timur. In the spring of 1395, both the Saray and Tukal with the children were sent to Samarkand, where Shahrukh had been staying since the autumn of 1394. In 1396, they were all in Khuzar, meeting Timur on his return from his "Five Years" campaign. During the Indian campaign, Saray <mask> <mask> and Ulugh accompanied Timur only as far as Kabul. In August 1398, Timur sent them back to Samarkand from the neighbourhood of Kabul. Issue
Saray did not have any children with Timur, though she is sometimes referred to as the mother of her husband's youngest son, Shahrukh Mirza, who was actually born of a concubine. Even if Saray had any children with her husband, they did not survive, and neither did Tukal-Khanum's, and yet their power and influence were well noted by foreign visitors to the Court.It was the two Chingisid princesses' personal qualities and pedigree that allowed them to develop a such a prestigious dynastic position, since with Timurid consorts maternity was not in itself a path to power. Upon the birth of Shahrukh's eldest son, Ulugh Beg, in 1394, he was also, like his father, placed in Saray's care and grew up under the supervision of the Empress. Clavijo's account of the Empress

Although the Spanish ambassador, Ruy Gonzáles de Clavijo, probably did not intend it, his description of "Cano" (The Great Khanum), Timur's chief wife, as she entered the great pavilion serves as a potent metaphor for much that he witnessed during his sojourn in Samarkand, the capital of Timurid Empire, between 8 September and 20 November 1404. As the ambassador of Henry III of Castile, Clavijo enjoyed great generous access to the life and ceremony of the Timurid imperial court and left one of the most detailed and lengthy accounts of their settings. "Cano" identifiable as Empress Saray, had come to join her husband, Timur, for a great feast, one of the several arranged at the Khan-i-Gil (lit. Mine of clay) meadow located outside Samarkand. Clavijo offers an expanded description of Saray's procession into the pavilion and of what she was wearing.Joined by fifteen servants to carry her train, eunuchs, and a male servant carrying a "shade" (sombra), Saray <mask> Khanum was dressed in red silk, her face covered by a white veil. She wore a complex headdress, fashioned from red fabric ornamented with pearls, rubies, turquoise, feathers, and held together with gold wire. Clavijo estimated about 300 hundred attendants making up her royal suite. Her doubly screened face — one screen a cloth veil, the other a thick layer of applied make-up — concealed her true identity. The face that dimly showed beneath her veil was so thickly covered with white lead to protect from the Sun, that it looked as if it were made of paper. Patronizing education

One of the most important buildings of the late 14th century in Samarkand was the Khanum madrasa, opposite the great mosque of Timur. The madrasa was commissioned by Empress Saray in c. 1397 as she was interested in patronizing education and was built by her orders at the capital of the Timurid Empire: Samarkand.Saray had commissioned many other buildings, but only the Khanum madrasa foundations  remains  to this day. Timur named one of the largest mosques ever conducted (1399-1404) in honour of his wife, Bibi <mask> (Saray). However, the Bibi Khanym Mosque was actually commissied by Saray. See also

<mask> "D. J.<mask>. (born June 15, 1985) is an American-Cameroonian professional basketball player for Zamalek SC of the Egyptian Basketball Super League. He is the son of former Major League Baseball player <mask>. High school career
While living in Corona, California, <mask> attended Mater Dei High School in Santa Ana.
