Palace Embankment

The Palace Embankment or Palace Quay (Russian: Дворцовая набережная, Dvortsovaya naberezhnaya) is a street along the Neva River in Central Saint Petersburg which contains the complex of the Hermitage Museum buildings (including the Winter Palace), the Hermitage Theatre, the New Michael Palace, the Saltykov Mansion and the Summer Garden.

The embankment was wooden up to 1761, when Catherine the Great ordered court architect Yury Felten to build stone embankments. The street as seen nowadays was laid out between 1763 and 1767, when it used to be a preferred place of residence for the Russian Imperial Nobility. The street begins at the Palace Bridge, where the Admiralty Embankment becomes the Palace Embankment, and the street ends at the Fontanka, where it becomes the Kutuzov Embankment.

The Palace Embankment is one of the main places of interest in the city as it offers a wonderful view of the Neva, the Peter and Paul Fortress and Vasilievsky Island.

Pushkin associations

In his novel Eugene Onegin, Alexander Pushkin depicted himself walking along Palace Quay with his hero, Eugene Onegin:

For the first edition of this chapter, the poet commissioned an illustration depicting him and Onegin walking together along the quay. Upon receiving the illustration, which represented him leaning on a parapet with his back turned towards the Peter and Paul Fortress, he was exceedingly displeased with the result (which had little in common with his own preliminary sketch, illustrated to the right) and scribbled the following epigram underneath (here in translation by Vladimir Nabokov):

Alexander Garden (poet)

Alexander Garden or Gardyne (c. 1585 - c. 1642) was a Scottish poet from Aberdeenshire.

Life and works
He is believed to have graduated from Marischal College before 1609 when a work of his was published calling him Mr., implying he had the degree of MA. This book was A Garden of Grave and Godlie Flowers: a collection of poems, elegies and prayers in praise of King James, other public figures and also friends. His  The Theatre of the Scottish Kings (c. 1625, but started in 1612) and A Theatre of Scottish Worthies are a series of short poems about every Scottish king from Fergus I on, and about various warriors and knights. He also wrote The Lyf, Doings and Deathe of William Elphinstoun (1619) based on a Latin work by Hector Boece about Bishop Elphinstone.

The first two of these books were published together in 1845 for the Abbotsford Club, the historical and literary society.

There are records of Garden as an advocate in 1633, and again in 1638 when he was one of a committee appointed to choose a new sub-principal sheriff. It used to be thought that the poet died around 1634; but recently 1642 has been suggested as more likely.

Shelley Webb

Shelley Webb is a British TV presenter, writer, and sports journalist and author of the book Footballers' Wives Tell Their Tales.  The book was the basis of the ITV series Footballers' Wives, which was an "enormous hit."

Personal life

Webb married former England footballer Neil Webb, and the couple had two children Luke and Josh, who both became professional footballers.  Webb's father was a professional footballer, and she has been a fan since childhood.  She was a university student when she and Neil met.  They married when she was 21.

Career

Webb, who holds a first-class honours degree in English and History,  trained as a journalist before her marriage and resumed that career with the local Nottingham Evening Post, working as an occasional sports writer. She was forced to turn down a job as a radio broadcaster in Nottingham when Neil Webb moved from Nottingham Forest to Manchester United. She later moved to TV presenting.  She worked as an on-air journalist for Standing Room Only (UK TV Progamme), then for BBC World Service Television.

This professional visibility led to interviews about her life as a footballer's wife, and, eventually, led her to write the book Footballers' Wives Tell Their Tales in 1998, the year she and Neil split up.

Her Footballers' Wives looked at the reality of being a modern footballer's wife. Webb interviewed 14 of her fellow footballer's wives for her 1998 book, painting what The Daily Telegraph called "a dismal picture of chronic insecurity, upheaval, boredom and loneliness."

The book was the basis for the TV series Footballers' Wives, a series that portrayed the lives of footballers and their families in the years when they became "like pop stars", receiving a level of coverage that the Scotsman described as "even sillier" than fan enthusiasm, as well as offers of sex and a lack of privacy.

Gâtinais

Gâtinais () or Gâtine () was a province of France, containing the area around the valley of the Loing, corresponding roughly to the northeastern part of the département of Loiret, and the south of the present department of Seine-et-Marne. Under the Bourbons, the Gâtinais had already been divided between the provinces of Île-de-France and Orléans. In the words of the modern tourist slogan for the "two Gâtinais", it lies between the Seine and the Loire.

Under the Franks, Gâtinais was the pagus Wastinensis (eventually to become Wasteney in the 20th century), (or Vastinensis) one of five belonging to the Archbishop of Sens. The west part of Puisaye and the archbishop's other fiefs in the northwest of the modern department of Yonne, west of that river, are also often considered part of Gâtinais; as is the area around Étampes in the present department of Essonne. Around the 10th century, the main town of this province was Château-Landon, and a twenty-five-mile circle around Notre-Dame de Château-Landon basically comprised it.

The western part, Gâtinais orléanais, approximately corresponds to the arrondissements of Montargis and a large part of Pithiviers, in Loiret. Pithiviers has for several centuries been the most representative town of Gâtinais. The eastern part, Gâtinais français, had Nemours as its chief town, and corresponds to the arrondissement of Fontainebleau in Seine-et-Marne.

This is an essentially agricultural area, although the west is wooded. It was for several centuries known for its saffron, a crop that disappeared from this area because of the heavy charges on human work and the impossibility to mechanise this particular crop; these days saffron makes a timid reappearance in the local fields under the impulse of natural regional park of Gâtinais français. It is also famous for its honey, produced by traditional methods in the whole area.

Literary use 

A region called Gâtinais is a neighbour of the fictional land of Poictesme in James Branch Cabell's Biography of the Life of Manuel.

Sewnarine Chattergoon

Sewnarine Chattergoon (born 3 April 1981) is a Guyanese cricketer who made his début for the West Indies cricket team against Zimbabwe on their 2006 tour.

Biography 
Chattergoon is a left-handed opening batsman who has registered four centuries in first class cricket, where he plays for Guyana. After scoring 9 in his début ODI match against Zimbabwe, Chattergoon made an unbeaten 54 in his second game, helping the West Indies to a ten-wicket victory; his batting partner, Chris Gayle, made 95 not out in the opening stand of 156. However Chattergoon was left out of the squad for the final two ODIs, and did not return to the squad until the fourth ODI against India later that summer. Chattergoon did not play the fourth ODI, got a golden duck in the fifth, and did not make the squad for the Test series.
Following an impressive domestic season for Guyana in 2007, Chattergoon was recalled to the West Indies ODI squad against South Africa in the 2008 series, where he played in the second, third and fourth ODIs. He impressed with fluent knocks of 34, 52 and 48 in the three innings whilst opening the batting. He clocked up 134 runs in that series, proving his skills at the highest level and has answered the WICB selectors call for an opening partner for Chris Gayle.

After making his test début for the West Indies against a formidable Sri Lankan team at the Queens Park Oval in Trinidad, he made a statement by starting his test career with an impressive but patient and technically correct innings of 46. This particular innings showed great potential for the long sought after opening batsman the West Indies have craved for a number of years now. In his first Test match he demonstrated the technical ability comparable to that of Greenidge and Haynes. His classy left-handed style of batting combined with his solid defensive technique accounts for a great opening batsman in the making. As well as his batting, Chattergoon has showed extraordinary ability in his slip fielding, somewhat incomparable to those previous players in the similar position by taking a spectacular catch at third slip in the first innings of his début Test match.

Other achievements in domestic cricket includes the 119 he hit in the final of the 2005–06 KFC Cup, the regional one-day tournament of the West Indies, out of a total 247 for 7 to help Guyana beat Barbados by three wickets and win the title.

Eid, Møre og Romsdal

Eid is a former municipality in Møre og Romsdal county, Norway. The  municipality existed from 1874 until its dissolution in 1964. It was located along the Romsdalsfjorden in the north-central part of the present-day Rauma Municipality. The administrative centre and largest population centre was the village of Eidsbygda. The municipality then extended to the southeast to the coast of the Isfjorden.

History
The small municipality of Eid was established on 1 January 1874 when the old municipality of Eid og Voll was divided into Eid Municipality and Voll Municipality. Eid had an initial population of 1,048.  During the 1960s, there were many municipal mergers across Norway due to the work of the Schei Committee. On 1 January 1964, the municipality of Eid (population: 381) was merged with the neighboring municipalities of Voll (population: 1,163), Grytten (population: 3,683), Hen (population: 1,663), and the southern part of Veøy municipality (population: 1,400) to form the new Rauma Municipality.

Name

Government
While it existed, this municipality was responsible for primary education (through 10th grade), outpatient health services, senior citizen services, unemployment, social services, zoning, economic development, and municipal roads. During its existence, this municipality was governed by a municipal council of directly elected representatives. The mayor was indirectly elected by a vote of the municipal council.

Maesglas

Maesglas or Maes-glas is a neighbourhood in the south west of the city of Newport, South Wales. In the 16th century it was recorded as Greenfield but the Welsh language name Maesglas has remained the more widely used, among English speakers.

It lies in the Gaer ward directly north of the A48 Southern Distributor Road, south of Cardiff Road and south-west of the South Wales Main Line railway.

The Newport-born author Leslie Thomas wrote of Maesglas:

This quote is incorporated into a mural telling the history of the estate, painted on the side of the Maesglas shops.

Housing
The main housing estate was first built in the 1930s, then many newer houses were added between the 1970s and 1990s in the Bideford Road area, next to the Great Western Main Line. Homes on the Maesglas estate are fairly compact but all have front and back gardens. Most of the houses are terraced but are arranged in all sorts of different rows and shapes of street, due to being built in the suburbs and having more room to build wider roads. A significant percentage of the houses are council-owned.

In the centre of the estate, there are two schools: Maesglas primary school and Maes-Ebbw School for older students with severe learning difficulties. The nearest Highschools in the area are St. Josephs (Roman Catholic) and Duffryn High School which is attended by most teenagers of the estate.

Semi-detached houses either side of Cardiff Road, St. Bride's Gardens next to the Ebbw River and the small estate (St David's Crescent) next to St. David's R.C. primary school, are also sometimes considered to be part of Maesglas.

Facilities
Maesglas is surrounded by several retail parks including the Harlech Retail Park, Maesglas Retail Park and 28 East Retail Park. Maesglas was also home to the headquarters of the Monmouthshire region's local newspaper, the South Wales Argus, until 2020. South-east of the railway line lies the Maesglas Industrial Estate, although this is in the Pill ward.

Both the Maesglas estate and the nearby Gaer estate are Communities First areas of Newport, recognised as being high on the index of multiple deprivation used by the Welsh Assembly to establish the poverty of an area. Maesglas has benefited hugely since the beginning of the scheme.

Maesglas has many recreational areas nearby such as Tredegar Park as well as football field in the grounds of the Maesglas Primary school. It is surrounded by history as Maesglas is close to Tredegar House of the famous Morgan family.  Maesglas is said to have an ancient burial ground towards the back of the estate next to the children's playground in Maesglas Crescent.

In 2008, a new suburban railway station was to be built to serve Maesglas.

Politics
The estate is the sub-ward of the Gaer ward of Newport City Council, which elects three councillors for a four-year term. Maesglas is within the  Newport West UK Parliamentary constituency and the Newport West Senedd constituency. The current MS is Jayne Bryant and the current MP is Ruth Jones.

John Reading (composer and organist)

John Reading (c. 1645–1692) was an English composer and organist, and father of John Reading (c. 1685 – 1764) who is remembered as an important music copyist.

Little of Reading's life is known. He was born in Lincoln, Lincolnshire, and became Master of the Choristers at Lincoln Cathedral in 1670, and in 1675 at Chichester Cathedral and at Winchester Cathedral. From 1681 until his death he was organist at Winchester College. Here he set the college's Latin graces to music as well as the school song Dulce domum. Several of his organ works were included in a collection which was completed by Daniel Roseingrave. He also composed songs, theatre music, and part of a set of responses (now in the Anglican church repertoire in a form completed by modern editors). He died in Winchester.

Hen, Møre og Romsdal

Hen is a former municipality in Møre og Romsdal county, Norway. The  municipality existed from 1902 until its dissolution in 1964. Hen encompassed the valleys extending to the south and east of the Isfjorden in the northeastern part of the present-day Rauma Municipality. The administrative center of Hen was the village of Isfjorden. The area of Hen Municipality is still a parish within the municipality of Rauma. The parish has one church, Hen Church, located in Isfjorden.

The mountains Kyrkjetaket and Gjuratinden are both located in Hen.

History
The municipality of Hen was established on 1 January 1902 when the large Grytten Municipality was divided into Hen (population: 1,128) and Grytten (population: 1,728).

On 1 January 1964, the municipality of Hen (population: 1,663) was merged with the neighboring municipalities of Eid (population: 381), Grytten (population: 3,683), Voll (population: 1,163), and the southern part of Veøy municipality (population: 1,400) to form the new Rauma Municipality.

Name
The municipality (originally the parish) is named after the old Hen farm () since the first Hen Church was built there. The meaning of the first element is uncertain. It could be  which means "high" or alternatively  which means "the grass that grows after the first crop has been mown". The last element is  which means "meadow" or "pasture".

Government
While it existed, this municipality was responsible for primary education (through 10th grade), outpatient health services, senior citizen services, unemployment, social services, zoning, economic development, and municipal roads. During its existence, this municipality was governed by a municipal council of directly elected representatives. The mayor was indirectly elected by a vote of the municipal council.

AEK Arena (cancelled project)

AEK Arena was a football stadium project in West Attica, Greece. The purpose of the project was the construction of a modern football stadium to be used by AEK Athens FC.

Location
As it was announced on September 6, 2007 the stadium would be built in Ano Liosia, a northwestern suburb of Athens. A contract was signed between the Greek State and AEK Athens F.C. and all the details of the project were finalised.

Capacity and other facilities
The stadium were to have a capacity of at least 50,000 spectators according to then AEK Athens F.C. chairman Demis Nikolaidis and it was to fulfill all the UEFA criteria in order to be regarded a 5-star venue. It were also to feature a shopping mall of around 50,000 square meters, a multiplex cinema as well as numerous cafes and restaurants.

Stadium naming
The name "AEK Arena" was in use as a temporary name for the project and had never been confirmed as the official name of the stadium. Another name strongly contemplated for the stadium was "New Nikos Goumas Stadium", noting also the possibility for the stadium to have been eventually named "LG Stadium" or "LG Arena" after a sponsorship deal with electronics giant LG Corporation.

Cancellation

The stadium was cancelled due to financial problems of the club and broad negative reaction from the fan base. On July 10, 2013, the new owner of AEK Athens F.C., Dimitris Melissanidis, announced that the club shall build a new stadium in Nea Filadelfia, at the spot where Nikos Goumas Stadium, the historic home ground of AEK Athens, was once situated.

Panathinaikos F.C. New Stadium

Panathinaikos New Stadium (also known as  Votanikos Stadium) is a football stadium with an additional multi-use sports complex in Athens, Greece, that will host all departments of the Panathinaikos sports club set for completion in 2026. The complex will be located in the historic Votanikos neighborhood, west of Athens. The entire project includes the football stadium (seating 39,000), a volleyball, handball and basketball stadium (seating 3,100), swimming pool (seating 500), and gymnastics facilities.

The Votanikos neighborhood currently houses mostly vacant, dilapidated storage and industrial facilities.

The football stadium was to be ready for the 100 years of the club in 2008, with the rest of the complex completed by 2011. This construction was the idea of popular former president of Panathinaikos Thanasis Giannakopoulos.

By October 2013, and due to the club's and the country's financial troubles, the construction of the Votanikos Arena had stopped and consequently the plans for the demolition of the Apostolos Nikolaidis Stadium were cancelled.

In 2022, mayor of Athens Kostas Bakogiannis announced that the project is going to be implemented and its construction will last 3 years. The most significant part of the agreement between Panathinaikos and the Municipality of Athens was that the team had to offer Apostolos Nikolaidis Stadium in exchange of its new stadium. After the construction of the arenas, Panathinaikos will be the owner of the entire Votanikos Sport Complex for 99 years. The new football, basketball, volleyball arenas and other facilities will be ready at the start of 2026.. The construction works started on the 6th of April 2023.

The municipality encompassed the Romsdalen valley which follows the Rauma River from the Oppland county border to the inner part of the Romsdal Fjord at the town of Åndalsnes, as well as some smaller side valleys.  The original municipality of Grytten was almost identical to the present-day Rauma Municipality, plus the southern part of Veøy Municipality (south of the Langfjorden).  When Grytten ceased to exist in 1964, it had an overall area of .  The administrative centre was the village of Åndalsnes.

Interscholastic Sailing Association

The Interscholastic Sailing Association also known as ISSA is the organization that serves as the governing authority for all sailing competition between both public and private secondary schools throughout the United States. The organization's headquarters is located in Barnstable, Massachusetts.

History and organization
The ISSA was formed in 1930 to govern sailing regattas between preparatory schools in New England. Now, the ISSA is organized into seven District Associations within ISSA that schedule and administer regattas within their established regions:

 New England Schools Sailing Association
 Middle Atlantic Scholastic Sailing Association
 South Atlantic Inter-Scholastic Sailing Association
 South East Inter-Scholastic Sailing Association
 Midwest Inter-Scholastic Sailing Association
 Northwest Inter-Scholastic Sailing Association
 Pacific Coast Inter-Scholastic Sailing Association

Individual schools are also responsible for scheduling dual meets and team-racing events.

Although there are over 350 high schools across the United States that field varsity sailing teams, relatively few of these schools own their own boats. Instead, most schools have established partnerships with community sailing organizations, colleges, or yacht clubs in order to gain access to a fleet of boats. Additionally, most high school sailing teams are involved with fundraising.

Many high school sailors go on to participate in college sailing (governed by the Intercollegiate Sailing Association). Both college varsity teams (such as Yale University) and club teams (such as the Vanderbilt Sailing Club) recruit high school sailors.

The ISSA partners with Vanguard Sailboats to help sponsor its national regattas.

The Red Mile

The Red Mile is a horse racing track located in Lexington, Kentucky, United States. The track hosts harness racing, a type of horse racing in which the horses must pull two-wheeled carts called sulkies while racing. It is one of harness racing's most famous tracks and is located in the heart of the Bluegrass region, an area of Kentucky famous for horse breeding and racing.

In 2014, The Red Mile announced it was partnering with Keeneland to build a $30 million historical racing facility, with 1,000 terminals, scheduled to open September 2015. In May 2015, Keeneland also announced that it would move most of its Off-track betting operations to The Red Mile beginning July 15, 2015, investing over $2 million upgrading The Red Mile's grandstand area.

Facilities
The race track itself is one mile long and made of red clay, which gives the track its name.

In addition to the race track, The Red Mile features a two-story clubhouse, a round barn, and a park. The clubhouse is often used for weddings, parties, and other gatherings. The Tattersalls area can accommodate large groups and is often used for horse sales.

History

The track was founded on September 28, 1875 and was sponsored by the Kentucky Trotting Horse Breeders Association. Attendance to the opening races was minimal because the track had not been advertised. Once newspapers published articles about the new track, attendance picked up. The track is the second-oldest harness racing track in the world and the oldest horse racing track in Lexington.

The Red Mile hosts one of the legs of the Triple Crown of Harness Racing for Trotters, the annual Kentucky Futurity.

Since 2017, American Flat Track motorcycle racing is conducted during the off-season.

In 2023, the Railbird Music Festival was held in the infield. The bill included 32 acts over two days, headlined by Zach Bryan and Kentucky native Tyler Childers. An estimated 40,000 people attended the festival each day.

First declension

The first declension is a category of declension that consists of mostly feminine nouns in Ancient Greek and Latin with the defining feature of a long ā (analysed as either a part of the stem or a case-ending). In Greek grammar, it is also called the alpha declension, since its forms have the letter α, at least in the plural.

In Latin and Greek grammar, the first declension is analyzed as a thematic declension. But its lack of a Proto-Indo-European thematic vowel (o or e) and of any nominative singular ending (ordinarily -s or -os) doesn't neatly place it within either of the Proto-Indo-European nominal categories, thematic and athematic. Therefore, it is assumed to be a newer formation: a suffix based on the neuter plural ending *-(e)h₂, forming a collective noun.

Latin

Latin nouns and adjectives

Latin first declension has only one set of endings for both feminine and masculine nouns.

The very small native masculine group includes only a few occupation nouns  and nouns imported from the Greek masculine first declension.

agricola "farmer" ← ager, agro- "field" and root of colō "I cultivate"
 poēta "poet" ← ποιητής poiētēs "one who composes" poetry
 pīrāta "pirate" ← πειρᾱτής peirātēs "one who makes an attempt on" someone
 aurīga "charioteer" ← aurea "horse's bridle" and agō "I do, lead, drive"

The same endings are used for the feminine gender of Latin adjectives.

Ancient Greek

Greek nouns

Greek first declension has two basic classes of feminine endings and one basic class of masculine endings, distinguished by their original nominative singular: long -ā, short -(y)ă, long -ās. But besides the nominative and accusative singular of feminines, and nominative, genitive, and vocative singular of masculines, forms are the same between subclasses.

In the Attic dialect, an ā-ē split divides each class into two subclasses: nouns with ᾱ and nouns with η. By contrast, other dialects tend to generalize the vowel one way or the other — Ionic has only ē, and Doric and Aeolic have only ā.

Greek adjectives

The feminine of first- and second-declension adjectives uses the -ā class of the first declension:

 -os, -ā/ē, -on

First- and third-declension adjectives, including participles in -nt-, use the -(y)ă class. Here are examples of this class, which is complex because of sound changes involving the y (see Ancient Greek nouns: short a):

-us, -eia, -u
-ās, -aina, -an
-ōn, -ousa, -on
-ās, -āsa, -an
-eis, -eisa, -en

Second declension

The second declension is a category of nouns in Latin and Greek with similar case formation. In particular, these nouns are thematic, with an original o in most of their forms. In Classical Latin, the short o of the nominative and accusative singular became u.

Both Latin and Greek have two basic classes of second-declension nouns: masculine or feminine in one class, neuter in another. Most words of the former class have -us (Latin) or -ος -os (Greek) in the nominative singular, except for the r-stem nouns in Latin, and the "Attic" declension and contracted declension in Attic Greek (when these groups are considered part of this declension). The latter class, i.e. the neuter nominative/accusative singular, usually ends with -um in Latin and -ον (-on) in Greek, matching the accusative of the former. 
In Latin, the masculine words of the second declension that end with -us in the nominative case are differently declined from the latter in the vocative case: such words end with -e.

Veøy

Veøy is a former municipality in Møre og Romsdal county, Norway. The  municipality existed from 1838 until its dissolution in 1964. It initially consisted of all of the present-day Vestnes Municipality, as well as the southern part of Molde Municipality and the northern part of Rauma Municipality. Vestnes Municipality was only part of Veøy for a few months in 1838 before it was made into a separate municipality. In 1964, the municipality was split between Molde and Rauma municipalities. Veøy Municipality was named after the island of Veøya, the administrative centre, where the main church for the municipality (Old Veøy Church) was located. There are no inhabitants on the island of Veøya (as of 2020).

History

Landslide
Just before 8:00 p.m. on 22 February 1756, a landslide with a volume of  — the largest known landslide in Norway in historic time — traveled at high speed from a height of  on the side of the mountain Tjellafjellet into the Langfjorden  from Veøy. The slide generated three mega-tsunamis in the immediate area in the Langfjorden and the Eresfjorden with heights of . Damaging waves reached Veøy, where, although reduced in size, they washed inland  above normal flood levels.

Municipality
The parish of Veøy was established as a municipality on 1 January 1838 (see formannskapsdistrikt law). The western district of Veøy was separated in the fall of 1838 to become Vestnes Municipality. During the 1960s, there were many municipal mergers across Norway due to the work of the Schei Committee. On 1 January 1964, the islands of Sekken and Veøya as well as the Nesjestranda district on the mainland north of the Langfjorden (with a total population of 756) were incorporated into the newly enlarged Molde Municipality. The remainder of Veøy on the south side of the Langfjorden and the Vågstranda area (population: 1,400) were merged with the small municipalities of Eid, Grytten, Hen, and Voll to form the new Rauma Municipality.

Name
The municipality (originally the parish) is named after the island of Veøya () since the first Veøy Church was built there and it was the religious center of the whole Romsdal region. The first element part is  which means "sanctuary" (Vé is a word that comes from German paganism). The last element is  which means "island". Thus, the name refers to it being a holy island. The name was historically spelled Veø.

Government
While it existed, this municipality was responsible for primary education (through 10th grade), outpatient health services, senior citizen services, unemployment, social services, zoning, economic development, and municipal roads. During its existence, this municipality was governed by a municipal council of directly elected representatives. The mayor was indirectly elected by a vote of the municipal council.

Municipal council
The municipal council  of Veøy was made up of 21 representatives that were elected to four year terms. The party breakdown of the final municipal council was as follows:
