# Iburi Izō

Iburi Izō (Japanese: 飯降伊蔵, 1833 – 1907) was the second spiritual leader of the Tenrikyo religion. He is also known as the Honseki (本席, lit. 'Main Seat'). After the death of Nakayama Miki (Oyasama) in 1887, he was the spiritual leader while Oyasama's son Nakayama Shinnosuke became the administrative leader, the Shinbashira. Having received the "grant of speech" from Oyasama, Iburi dictated the Osashizu, additional divinely inspired instructions on the creation and maintenance of a Tenrikyo community.

## Life

Iburi was born in Murō, Nara in 1833, but was forced to leave when his family became despondent. He moved to modern-day Tenri, and sought out a wife. His first wife died in childbirth, while the second arranged marriage to a gambling addict was quickly annulled. His third wife became gravely ill after childbirth which led him to seek Tenrikyo. He became a member after his wife was healed and went to see Oyasama every day, supporting her during times of religious persecution.
Iburi presided over a period of rapid expansion for Tenrikyo, which saw it reach villages throughout Japan. In 1896, eight percent of all Japanese citizens were dues-paying adherents of Tenrikyo. Iburi petitioned the government to be separated from the Sect Shinto group Shinto Honkyoku; this petition was granted in 1908.
It was Iburi's intention to continue the Honseki position by passing on spiritual leadership to a worthy successor, while the Shinbashira position was passed on in the Nakayama family. He chose a woman, Naraito Ueda, for this position. But she became ill, and in 1918 a rumor was spread that she was insane, so the Honseki position ended with Iburi, and the Nakayama family took the reins as central leadership.
Izō's last words were reportedly "How thankful, what a delicious meal" (おおきに ごちそうさん, ōkini, gochisō-san). He was said to have died sitting up with his hands on his lap.

## Family

His three children Nagao Yoshie (永尾よしみ), Iburi Masae (飯降政甚), and Iburi Masajin (飯降まさ忍) are referred to in Tenrikyo as Sanken Mimune (三軒三棟).

# Hooq

Hooq (stylised in all caps, pronounced like hook) was a Singaporean video on demand streaming service. It was a joint venture of Singtel, Sony Pictures and Warner Bros., with presence in the Philippines, Thailand, India, Indonesia, and Singapore. Hooq was valued at $420 million dollars. Hooq filed for liquidation on 27 March 2020, and shut down on 30 April 2020. Its assets were acquired by Coupang.

## History

Hooq was a joint venture of Singtel, Sony Pictures and Warner Bros., established on 30 January 2015, when the presence of Netflix in Asia was still limited. An online streaming video platform, Hooq would be able to capitalise on Singtel's reach and distribution to deliver Hollywood movies, television series, as well as local programming to Asian markets. Hooq also produced original content to attract subscribers, starting with a mini-series based on the multi-award-winning movie, On the Job which revolves around a hard-hitting topic in Philippine society.
The platform was progressively launched in the Philippines, Thailand, India, Indonesia, and Singapore over 2015 and 2016. The content on the platform was accessed with a monthly or yearly subscription fee.
Hooq was named Best Mobile App in the Media, Film, TV or Video category at the GSMA's Global Mobile (GLOMO) Awards 2016 in Barcelona.
Due to its fast growing, but loss-making status in Singtel's portfolio, an initial public offering was considered for value realisation in 2019. However, on 27 March 2020, Hooq filed for liquidation, citing "significant structural changes" that had occurred in the over-the-top (OTT) video market and its competitive landscape. Its global headcount of 240 staff was affected and laid off during this liquidation process. Hooq shut down on 30 April 2020.

## Ownership

Singtel owned 65 percent of Hooq's shares, while Sony Pictures and Warner Bros. each owned 17.5 percent. The share structure remained unchanged when it raised an additional US$25,000,000 in 2017. On 27 March 2020, when announced its plans for liquidation, it was revealed that Singtel has an indirect control of 76.5 percent of the company.
In July 2020, South Korean e-commerce company Coupang acquired Hooq's software assets, which are being used as the basis of its own service Coupang Play.
In early 2024, South Korean search engine marketing company Hedley Digital acquired Hooq's digital assets and transformed it into OTT meta search platform form.

# Jean Tardieu

Jean Tardieu (French pronunciation:; born in Saint-Germain-de-Joux, Ain, 1 November 1903, died in Créteil, Val-de-Marne, 27 January 1995) was a French artist, musician, poet and dramatic author.

## Life and career

He earned a degree in literature and worked for a publishing house. He published several poetry collections in the 1930s before starting to write for the stage. After World War II, Tardieu entered the world of radio and worked his way to head of dramatic programming and then director of programs at France-Music. The quality and success of French National Public Radio after World War II has been attributed largely to Jean Tardieu.
He was married to pteridologist Marie Laure Tardieu.
Tardieu's works mingled with the ideals of the French New Theatre and used comedy to pick apart more traditional theatre. He is often associated with the Theatre of the Absurd.
Some of his work has been translated into English, including:
* The Underground Lovers, and other experimental plays
