# Spike Breakwell

Spike Breakwell (born Colin James Breakwell on 13 June 1968) is a British comedian. When he was four months old he became disabled through taking oral polio vaccine which caused a two-week coma. He was brought up in Dunstable, and "treated and raised to be as stubborn and independent as anyone else round about." As a child, he attended Lady Zia Wernher School in Luton, then moved to Lord Mayor Treloar College in Alton, Hampshire for his secondary education.
Breakwell was the first wheelchair-using comedian on the London alternative club circuit from 1992, appearing on stage and BBC2 television. His act always started with the line: "...I don't know what I've been drinking but I could walk half an hour ago!". He also co-wrote and co-starred (with Simon Hardeman) in the Edinburgh International Festival Fringe shows On The Toilet With Shergar (An Evening of Horseplay and Lavatory Humour ) in 1992, Simon and Spikes Laugh-In in 1993 and the critically acclaimed play looking at comedy Death of a Comedian in 1994.
He co-wrote (with Simon Hardeman) the Beginners' Guide column in The Times Magazine. He has also been a regular in a BBC disability magazine programme. In January 2006 Breakwell and part of the Wheelabout expedition team drove across Australia. He had planned to become the first person to cross from Perth to Sydney (4600 miles) in an electric wheelchair. However, funding for the trip failed to materialise and it is yet to be completed.
In October 2007 he appeared in his first Hollywood film, Dante's Criterion, described as a supernatural horror story of a possessed television, as "Ziggy Fontain" a wheelchair-using TV advertising producer.

# Ibn Fadlallah al-Umari

Shihab al-Din Abu al-Abbas Ahmad Ibn Fadlallah al-Umari (Arabic: شهاب الدين أبو العبّاس أحمد بن فضل الله العمري, romanized: Shihāb al-Dīn Abū al-ʿAbbās Aḥmad ibn Faḍlallāh al-ʿUmarī), commonly known as Ibn Fadlallah al-Umari or Ibn Faḍl Allāh al-‘Umārī (1301 – 1349) was an Arab historian born in Damascus. His major works include at-Taʾrīf bi-al-muṣṭalaḥ ash-sharīf, on the subject of the Mamluk administration, and Masālik al-abṣār fī mamālik al-amṣār, an encyclopedic collection of related information. The latter was translated into French by Maurice Gaudefroy-Demombynes in 1927.
A student of Ibn Taymiyya, Ibn Fadlallah visited Cairo shortly after the Malian Mansa Kankan Musa I's pilgrimage to Mecca, and his writings are one of the primary sources for this legendary hajj. He recorded that the Mansa dispensed so much gold that its value fell in Egypt for a decade afterward, a story that is often repeated in describing the wealth of the Mali Empire.
He recorded Kankan Musa's stories of the previous mansa; Kankan Musa claimed that the previous ruler had abdicated the throne to journey to a land across the ocean, leading contemporary Malian historian Gaoussou Diawara to theorize that Abu Bakr II reached the Americas years before Christopher Columbus.
Gaudefroy-Demombynes believed that al-Umari wrote the Masalik al-Absar between 1342 and 1349, but internal evidence suggests that at least the chapter on Egypt and Syria and the section covering the Mali Empire were written in 1337-1338.
In March 1339, al-Umari was arrested following an altercation with the sultan, but al-Umari's father persuaded the sultan to spare him, and he was sentenced to house arrest. He subsequently had further conflict with the sultan and was imprisoned, but released in October. He subsequently moved to Damascus, and worked as a secretary there from August 1340 to May or June 1343.

# Ali Project

Ali Project (typeset as ALI PROJECT) is a Japanese rock band with a strong Japanese aristocrat-style image, consisting of Arika Takarano (宝野アリカ, Takarano Arika, vocals & lyrics) and Mikiya Katakura (片倉三起也, Katakura Mikiya, music & arrangement).
The band's work is divided into two styles, which lead singer/lyricist Arika Takarano has termed White Alice (白アリ, Shiro Ari) for the band's light, cheerful and/or refreshing songs, and Black Alice (黒アリ, Kuro Ari) for songs that take on a darker and more mysterious tone.

## Career

They made their indie debut in the charts in 1988 as Ari (Ant) Project (蟻プロジェクト, Ari Purojekuto) with their album "Fantastic Garden" (幻想庭園, Gensō Teien). The album was later included in Tatsumi Takayuki's book Philosophy of Progressive Rock (プログレッシヴ・ロックの哲学, Puroguresshivu Rokku no Tetsugaku), which led to the band being classified under the progressive rock genre. Takarano later endorsed this description.
Four years later in 1992 they changed their name and made their major debut with their single "Fall in love, maiden" (恋せよ乙女, Koi-seyo otome). Notably, Japan's phonetic system meant the band's Japanese pronunciation was unchanged, giving Ali (アリ) the potential to refer to Ant, a shortened Alice, or a shortened Arika.
Most of their records are released by Toshiba-EMI, Victor Entertainment and Tokuma Japan. The band is notable in the anime community for having their songs featured in several anime productions, including Noir, Rozen Maiden, Kamichama Karin, .hack//Roots, Linebarrels of Iron, Code Geass, Phantom -Requiem for the Phantom-, Fate/Extra, Shigofumi, Another, Katanagatari, Rakudai Kishi no Cavalry, and Irina: The Vampire Cosmonaut. Additionally, Mikiya Katakura has also provided the soundtrack to several anime series, such as Kaibutsu Oujo and Avenger.

### Overseas Concerts

Ali Project performed their debut concert in the United States at Sakura-Con 2008 in Seattle, Washington. In 2016, the band performed at Anime Boston, and in 2017, they returned to the United States as part of Anisong World Matsuri at Anime Expo in Los Angeles.
# American Press Institute

The American Press Institute is an educational non-advocacy 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization affiliated with the News Media Alliance (formerly the Newspaper Association of America). The institute's mission is to encourage the advancement of news media; it conducts research, training, convenes leaders and creates tools for journalism. It describes itself as advancing "an innovative and sustainable news industry by helping publishers understand and engage audiences, grow revenue, improve public-service journalism, and succeed at organizational change."

## History

The institute, founded in 1946, initially was at the Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism before moving in 1974 to Reston, Virginia. It has been described by The Washington Post as the nation's "most venerable press-management and training organization." The institute's discussion leaders have included former Washington Post Executive Editor Ben Bradlee, former New York City Mayor David Dinkins, Washington Post publisher Katharine Graham, and Pulitzer Prize-winner and former Poynter Institute chairman Eugene Patterson.
However, API's fortunes declined in parallel with those of American newspapers, which were once one of the most profitable businesses in the nation. The institute in early 2012 merged with the NAA Foundation of the Newspaper Association of America and shuttered its landmark headquarters. Starting in 2013, API's leadership led its transformation from a training institution to an "applied think tank," producing research, programs, events and tools that facilitate learning in the news industry mostly outside a traditional training model.
As of 2018, some of API's projects include:
* The Media Insight Project, a joint research initiative with the Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research at the University of Chicago.
* Metrics for News, an analytics program and tool to help publishers understand how their audiences interact with their journalism.
* Thought Leader Summits, "one-day summits on focused topics of importance in the current journalism landscape."
* Programs on growing reader revenue, improving accountability journalism and succeeding at organizational change.
The center's director and CEO is Michael D. Bolden, a former managing editor at The San Francisco Chronicle and former managing director of the John S. Knight Journalism Fellowships at Stanford. Previously the institute was led by executive director Tom Rosentiel.
In 2023, the API launched a pilot program for the American Press Institute Inclusion Index across five newsrooms in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. The program seeks to improve the relationships between newsrooms and the diverse communities they cover.

# Ernest Williamson

Ernest Clarke Williamson (24 May 1890 – 30 April 1964) was an English football goalkeeper.

## Career

Born in Murton, County Durham, Williamson began his career at local sides before moving to London in 1913 to join Croydon Common. During World War I he served in the Royal Army Service Corps and also turned out for various teams as a guest, including over 120 appearances for Arsenal. After the war ended, Williamson officially signed for Arsenal, who had just been promoted to the First Division, for a £150 fee. After sharing the keeper's jersey with Stephen Dunn in 1919–20 he made it his own the following season, playing 33 of the Gunners' 42 matches in 1920–21, and only missing one match the season after that.
His consistency for Arsenal brought the attention of the England selectors, and he became Arsenal's first post-First World War international, playing in both of England's matches away to Sweden on 21 May and 24 May 1923. However, by this time his Arsenal place was under threat; after conceding fourteen goals first in five matches during 1922–23 he had been dropped in favour of Dunn, and later Jock Robson. In June 1923 he left Arsenal for free to go to Norwich City. In all he played 113 official first-class matches for Arsenal, in addition to his unofficial wartime matches.
After playing for Division Three South Norwich for two seasons, Williamson retired from football altogether in 1925. He died in 1964, aged 73.

# Taldara

Taldara (Arabic: تل الدرة, also spelled Tell Dirrah, Tall Derah, Talldarra or Tell ad-Dura) is a village in central Syria, administratively part of the Salamiyah District of the Hama Governorate. It is located 23 kilometers (14 mi) southeast of Hama and 12 kilometers (7.5 mi) west of Salamiyah. According to the Syria Central Bureau of Statistics (CBS), Taldara had a population of 5,986 in the 2004 census. Its inhabitants are predominantly Ismailis.

## History

Taldara was initially founded in 1836 when it was acquired by Muhammad Khurfan Bey, a chief of the Mawali tribe in the Hama region. Before that, the village had been deserted. Like other places in the Salamiyah area that the Ottoman authorities encouraged to be repopulated, the settlers of Taldara came from the Mawali, Nu'aym and Uqaydat tribes. However, just two years later, Taldara and all of the other villages of Salamiyah were reported to have been deserted.
An attempt to reestablish Taldara in 1876 led by Muhammad Qahwaji and Haydar Watad did not succeed due to conflicts with Bedouin tribes from the neighboring al-A'la hill country and the environs of al-Saan, who frequently grazed their sheep flocks at the village site. Watad and Qahwaji planted corn fields on the northern hillside of the tell (archaeological mound) and built two huts nearby, but their venture was ended when Qahwaji was killed by the Bedouins in revenge for his killing of a Bedouin in an earlier quarrel. Qahwaji was buried on the top of the tell.
Modern Taldara was re-established in 1883 by Ismaili migrants from other parts of northern Syria led by Ali Sharba from the Khawabi valley, who was later joined by the Askur, Warda and al-Dabiyat families. They chose to settle the place because of worsening economic conditions in their former areas of residence, the low taxes living in the Syrian Desert fringes offered, and Taldara's proximity to Salamiyah, the center of Ismaili life in Syria.
