# List of high commissioners of the United Kingdom to Ghana

The high commissioner of the United Kingdom to Ghana is the United Kingdom's foremost diplomatic representative in the Republic of Ghana, and head of the UK's diplomatic mission in Ghana.
As fellow members of the Commonwealth of Nations, the United Kingdom and Ghana conduct their diplomatic relations at governmental level, rather than between heads of state. Therefore, the countries exchange high commissioners, rather than ambassadors.

# Werner Huno

Werner Huno (died 1291 in Lübeck) was a German merchant and councilor of the Hanseatic city of Lübeck.

## Life

Nothing is known about Werner Huno's origins. As head of the Heiligen-Geist-Hospital in Lübeck, he concluded contracts with the Lüneburg Saltworks in 1289/1290. He had been councilor of the city of Lübeck since 1289. For investment purposes, he acquired half the village of Wulfsdorf, half the village of Beidendorf and half the village of Albsfelde. Werner Huno lived in house Koberg 5 in Lübeck. After his death, his widow sold the halves of Wulfsdorf and Beidendorf to the Lübeck councilor Gottfried von Cremon.
While Emil Ferdinand Fehling looked at the Lübeck council secretary and chronicler Alexander Huno as his son, Friedrich Bruns later turned against this attribution.
# Maungakura / Red Hill

Maungakura / Red Hill is a culturally significant and geologically distinct mountain in Mount Richmond Forest Park, on the boundary of Marlborough and Tasman districts, New Zealand. The hill is 1,791 metres (5,876 ft) in height, and is the summit of the Richmond Range. The mountain is important to Ngāti Apa ki te Rā Tō, Ngāti Koata, Ngāti Kuia, Ngāti Rārua, Ngāti Tama ki Te Tau Ihu, Rangitāne o Wairau and Te Atiawa o Te Waka-a-Māui. It is on the official list of New Zealand places with dual names.
The plateau is made up of limestone, with some serpentine and heavy metal deposits in the ultramafic plateau. The soils near the alpine region allow a unique ecology for some plant communities; for instance, Notothlaspi viretum is known to grow in the area.
The Te Araroa track passes over Red Hills at the northern and southern end of the range, where there is also a hut for trampers.
# Waldeck Rousseau law (1884)

The Law on the Creation of Professional Syndicates, known as the Waldeck-Rousseau Law, allowed legalised trade unions in France. Passed on March 21, 1884, it repealed the Le Chapelier Law and defined the scope of union competencies. It is now integrated into the Labor Code.
The Law on the Creation of Professional Syndicates, known as the Waldeck-Rousseau Law after Pierre Waldeck-Rousseau, the republican Minister of the Interior who advocated for its adoption, is a French law passed on 21. It followed the Ollivier Law of the Second French Empire of 25 May 1864 which decriminalized workers' coalitions.
The law authorized the establishment of trade unions in France, repealing the restrictive Le Chapelier Law, and defined their competencies. The text applies to all professional groups, encompassing both employee unions and employer unions. It has since been incorporated into the French Labour Code.

# Walk this way (humor)

"Walk this way" is a recurrent pun in a number of comedy films and television shows. It may be derived from an old vaudeville joke that refers to the double usage of the word "way" in English as both a direction and a manner.
One version of this old joke goes like this: A heavy-set woman goes into a drug store and asks for talcum powder. The bowlegged clerk says, "Walk this way," and the woman answers, "If I could walk that way, I wouldn't need talcum powder!" In the 1970's Monty Python's Flying Circus episode "The Buzz Aldrin Show" [S02E04] a man enters a pharmacy asking for aftershave. When the chemist replies: "Certainly, sir, walk this way please," the man replies "If I could walk that way I wouldn't need aftershave."
As a popular visual gag, the joke perhaps first appeared on film in "Is My Palm Read" (1933), a Fleischer cartoon short in which Betty Boop complies with the instruction of Bimbo playing the palm reader. It is used in After the Thin Man (1936), with William Powell imitating the butler. Multiple generations were introduced to the gag by The Three Stooges, who used "Walk This Way" at least once but memorably in their 1951 film Don't Throw the Knife. Playing census takers, Moe, Larry and Shemp follow a woman into her apartment and imitate her sexy walk. Mel Brooks included the routine in three major films, The Producers, Young Frankenstein and Robin Hood: Men in Tights. According to Gene Wilder, who co-wrote the script of Young Frankenstein and played the title character, Brooks added the joke while shooting the scene, inspired by the old "talcum powder" routine. Marty Feldman, who played the hunchback Igor in Young Frankenstein, later said:
   It's a terribly old music hall joke. I did that to make the crew laugh and Mel Brooks said, "Let's shoot it" ... [Gene Wilder and I] both said, "Mel, please take that out", and he left it in. He said, "I think it's funny". Audiences laugh at it. Gene and I were both wrong. Mel was right.
The Aerosmith song "Walk This Way" was inspired by the gag, although there are at least two stories of exactly which version inspired the band. In a 1984 interview, Steven Tyler credits the Three Stooges skit as being the impetus of the song. (Joe Perry has written that Aerosmith band members were devoted to watching The Three Stooges in the band's early days.)Another version cites the band's viewing of the film Young Frankenstein as inspiration.
# Mickaël Debève

Mickaël Debève (born 1 December 1970) is a French football manager and former football player who played as a midfielder. He is the assistant manager Ligue 1 club of Toulouse.

## Playing career

Born in Abbeville, Debève began his career at Toulouse; after a slow start - only four first-team appearances in three seasons, he became a main squad member. His first match in the top level came on 5 June 1987, in a 1–0 home win against Lens.
The most important part of Debève's career was spent at Lens, who he helped win the national league in 1998, adding the league cup the following year. In the 1998–99 UEFA Champions League, he scored the game's only goal at Wembley, against English champions Arsenal, making Lens the first club from France to win at that ground.
After totalling more than 400 official matches in his country, Debève moved to England with Middlesbrough in February 2002, arriving for free and rejoining former Lens mate Franck Queudrue. He made his debut as a substitute in the FA Cup 6th round victory over Everton. He was then thrust into the starting line up for the semi-final against Arsenal due to various injuries, making only his second Boro appearance against the team he had knocked out of the UEFA Champions League four years earlier. However, he could not prevent Boro losing 1–0. He left in the summer, and closed out his career in France's second level, with Amiens.

## Managerial career

Immediately after retiring, Debève became a manager, starting as player-coach with hometown side Abbeville.
Debève was named manager of Toulouse, the club where he started his playing career, on 23 January 2018, replacing Pascal Dupraz. Upon his appointment, Toulouse was 19th in Ligue 1 on 20 points from 22 matches (five wins, five draws, twelve losses), and facing relegation. In his first match in charge of Toulouse, they lost 2–0 away to Bourg-en-Bresse in the 2017-18 Coupe de France Round of 32.
