George S. Clement House

The George S. Clement House (also known as the "Davies House") is a historic building in Wauseon, Ohio, United States. Built in 1872, it has been named a fine example of the High Victorian form of the Italianate style of architecture.George S. Clement moved to Wauseon in 1864, only one decade after the community was established. His hard manner of conducting business relations caused him soon to become one of the city's leading businessmen, and less than a decade after moving to Wauseon, he built a glorious house north of the city's downtown. Its walls are primarily weatherboard, although decorated with stone elements; the roof is made of slates; and details around the house include elements of wood and of iron. The two-story house is primarily frame, and its slate roof is a mansard. His house on Clinton Street completed, Clement remained deeply involved in the business affairs of Wauseon. In 1889, Clement participated in the founding of the Wauseon State Bank, and on its board of directors he sat until the end of his life.In 1983, Clement's house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places, qualifying for the Register for two different reasons — its high-quality Italianate architecture and its connection to George S. Clement during his time as a leading member of the community. Included in the landmarked area was a second building, a carriage house on the property's southwestern corner.

Broder Daniel

Broder Daniel (Swedish for Brother Daniel), often abbreviated as BD, was an alternative rock band from Gothenburg, Sweden. They formed in the late 1980s and then consisted of classmates Henrik Berggren and Daniel Gilbert. The band claims they started playing "to gain social respect" and it was decided early on that emotional expression would be more important to their sound than musical correctness. Musically, they have been inspired by bands such as The Jesus And Mary Chain, Iggy Pop and The Velvet Underground, relying heavily on distorted guitars and simple arrangements. Their lyrics have mostly centered on existential issues and youth angst. Broder Daniel was largely regarded as a cornerstone of Swedish alternative music during the 1990s, even though the band has proven to be quite unstable ever since the beginning, with members leaving the band every few years.

Frithubeorht

Frithubeorht (or Frithbert, Frithuberht, Latin: Frithubertus) (died 23 December AD 766) was an eighth century medieval Bishop of Hexham. There are several theories as to why Frithbert's predecessor Acca departed or was driven from the Diocese of Hexham in 732. According to one account, Acca had fallen out of favour with the Northumbrian king Ceolwulf because he had sided with Ceolwulf's opponents during an attempted coup. Frithubeorht, who was thought to be a strong supporter of the Northumbrian dynasty, was appointed in Acca's place as Bishop of Hexham. Frithubeorht was consecrated on 8 September 734 by Archbishop Ecgbert.As the seventh Bishop of Hexham, Frithbert served as bishop for a lengthy thirty-four years until his death. In 750, when Cynewulf - the Bishop of Lindisfarne - was imprisoned, Frithbert also administered the church of Lindisfarne. He died on 23 December 766, the same year as Ecgbert. Bede praised Firthbert as a "truly faithful bishop." More recently, the historian John Godfrey, described Firthbert as an "undistinguished prelate. "Frithbert's relics were re-discovered at Hexham in 1154. He is considered a saint by both the Roman Catholic and the Eastern Orthodox Church.

Alcibiades

Alcibiades ( AL-sib-EYE-ə-deez (listen); Greek: Ἀλκιβιάδης; c. 450 – 404 BC) was a prominent Athenian statesman, orator, and general. He was the last famous member of his mother's aristocratic family, the Alcmaeonidae, which fell from prominence after the Peloponnesian War. He played a major role in the second half of that conflict as a strategic advisor, military commander, and politician. During the course of the Peloponnesian War, Alcibiades changed his political allegiance several times. In his native Athens in the early 410s BC, he advocated an aggressive foreign policy and was a prominent proponent of the Sicilian Expedition. After his political enemies brought charges of sacrilege against him, he fled to Sparta, where he served as a strategic adviser, proposing or supervising several major campaigns against Athens. However, Alcibiades made powerful enemies in Sparta too, and defected to Persia. There he served as an adviser to the satrap Tissaphernes until Athenian political allies brought about his recall. He served as an Athenian general (strategos) for several years, but enemies eventually succeeded in exiling him a second time. Scholars have argued that had the Sicilian expedition been under Alcibiades's command instead of that of Nicias, the expedition might not have met its eventual disastrous fate. In the years when he served Sparta, Alcibiades played a significant role in Athens's undoing; the capture of Decelea and the revolts of several critical Athenian subjects occurred either at his suggestion or under his supervision. Once restored to his native city, however, he played a crucial role in a string of.

local government in the Republic of Ireland

The functions of local government in the Republic of Ireland are mostly exercised by thirty-one local authorities, termed County, City, or City and County Councils. The principal decision-making body in each of the thirty-one local authorities is composed of the members of the council, elected by universal franchise in local elections every five years from multi-seat local electoral areas using the single transferable vote. Many of the authorities' statutory functions are, however, the responsibility of ministerially appointed career officials termed Chief executives. The competencies of the city and county councils include planning, transport infrastructure, sanitary services, public safety (notably fire services) and the provision of public libraries. Each local authority sends representatives to one of three Regional Assemblies.Local government in the state is governed by Local Government Acts 1925 to 2019, the principal act of which is the Local Government Act 2001. The Local Government (Ireland) Act 1898 is the founding document of the present system. The Twentieth Amendment of the Constitution of Ireland (1999) provided for constitutional recognition of local government for the first time in Ireland in a new Article 28A. The Local Government Reform Act 2014 changed the structure by the abolition of all town councils and the merger of certain county councils. The reforms came into effect in 2014, to coincide with that year's local elections.

Nihali

Nihali, also known as Nahali or erroneously as Kalto, is a moribund language isolate that is spoken in west-central India (in Madhya Pradesh and Maharashtra), with approximately 2,000 people in 1991 out of an ethnic population of 5,000. The Nihali tribal area is just south of the Tapti River, around the village of Tembi in Nimar district (Burhanpur) of Madhya Pradesh. Speakers of the Nihali language are also present in several villages of the Buldhana district in Maharashtra such as Jamod, Sonbardi, Kuvardev, Chalthana, Ambavara, Wasali, and Cicari. There are dialectal differences between the Kuvardev-Chalthana and the Jamod-Sonbardi varieties.The language has a very large number of words adopted from neighboring languages, with 60–70% apparently taken from Korku (25% of vocabulary and much of its morphology), from Dravidian languages, and from Marathi, but much of its core vocabulary cannot be related to them or other languages, such as the numerals and words for "blood" and "egg". Scholars state that less than 25% of the language's original vocabulary is used today. There are no longer any surviving monolingual speakers of the language. Those well-versed in modern Nihali are likely to speak varieties of Hindi, Marathi or Korku as well.For centuries, most Nihali have often worked as agricultural labourers, for speakers of languages other than their own. In particular, Nihali labourers have often worked for members of the Korku people, and are often bilingual in the Korku language. Because of this history, Nihali is sometimes used by its speakers only to prevent native Korku speakers and other outsiders from.
