Aarau bells can be found in many church towers in Switzerland. History Bells have been cast in Aarau since 1367. In the beginning, the foundry was run by a Reber family. Various other genders followed later. In 1607, Hans-Jakob Stalder had a smelting works built on the “Rain”, where the foundry still stands today. At the beginning of the 19th century, Johann-Heinrich Bär sold the foundry to his two employees Sebastian Rüetschi and Jakob Rüetschi (1838–1748). In 1824 they acquired the property on the “Rain” with all accessories for 18,000 Swiss francs. After Jakob Rüetschi's death, his son Emanuel Rüetschi took over the property and expanded it. He continued to run the company together with his brothers Daniel and Johann Jakob Rüetschi. Hermann Rüetschi, the only son of Johann Jakob Rüetschi, joined the company in 1876 after studying engineering in Lausanne and Munich; he acquired it in 1882. Since he remained childless, the “Rüetschi dynasty” died out with him in 1917. In order to preserve the name, the company was converted into a public limited company after the First World War. With the introduction of Krupp steel guns, the last cannonballs were delivered in 1873. Friedrich Wilhelm Schilling expanded his knowledge here.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Senor%20Buscador
Senor Buscador
Senor Buscador (foaled May 6, 2018) is an American thoroughbred racehorse most famous for winning the richest horse race in the world the Saudi Cup. He has competed at 13 different racetracks starting with Remington Park in Oklahoma and going as far as Saudi Arabia and Dubai. His name is an homage to his lineage as it roughly translates to Mr.Prospector. Background Senor Buscador is sired by 2003 Horse of the Year Mineshaft. A successful racehorse and stallion who's dam Prospectors Delite was sired by Mr.Prospector where Senor Buscador gets his name. His dam is Rose's Desert a New Mexico bred who won 10 of 15 races primarily against other New Mexico breds although her career was cut short due to ankle problems. She was bred and owned by Joe Peacock Sr and was the first of Peacock's horses to be trained by Todd Fincher. Joe Peacock Sr had also bred and owned Rose's Desert's dam Miss Glen Rose who was one of the first horses he bred. He acquired her dam Snippet from a dispersal sale for $9,500 and the third horse he bred from the mare was Miss Glen Rose. Making Senor Buscador a third generation homebred for the Peacock family. In fact all 5 horses Rose's Desert produced were bred by Joe Peacock Sr and trained by Todd Fincher. Joe Peacock Sr started his career owning Quarter Horses in the 1960s but started breeding Thoroughbreds in 1997. Todd Fincher was once a Quarter horse jockey winning races such as the Ruidoso Futurity before conflicts with weight forced him to switch to being a horse trainer. They had found success in her previous foals with the highlights being Sheriff Brown and Runaway Ghost both stakes winners in New Mexico who earned more than half a million dollars each. Runaway Ghost being their first thoroughbred to win a graded stakes when he took the G3 Sunland Derby. Senor Buscador was the final horse bred by Joe Peacock Sr before he passed away at age of 88, He bred the horse along with his son Joe Peacock Jr. Racing career Two-year-old season Both of Senor Buscador's two starts as a two-year-old were run at Remington Park. Their original plan had been to run him at Sunland Park where Todd Fincher and the Peacock family were based but due to the COVID pandemic Sunland Park was closed. So they shipped him to Remington Park where his very first start came on November 6, 2020. They wanted to run him longer but they were forced to settle for a 5 1/2 furlong Maiden Special Weight. He had a slow beginning at one point being 10 lengths behind the leading horse but he would go on to win the race by 2 1/2 lengths. This would be the first time he'd show off his trademark strategy of detaching himself from the rest of the field and closing late to try and pass everyone. Only one month later and he would end his two-year-old-year unbeaten with a stakes victory in the Remington Springboard Mile in another last to first performance but this time from even further back being 12 1/4 lengths behind at the start but crossing the finish line 5 3/4 lengths clear of his nearest opponent. The race would've awarded 10 Kentucky Derby points to the winner however, Senor Buscador did not earn points for the race because he was on Lasix. Three-year-old season After winning the Springboard Mile the plan was to take him down to The Fairgrounds as a 3-year-old and run him lasix-free to get him into the Kentucky Derby. But in the Risen Star Stakes he was sent wide throughout and couldn't muster the same late kick that got him first in his previous two races and he finished fifth just out of range to acquire Kentucky Derby points. His next race was going to be the Rebel Stakes at Oaklawn Park but his 3-year-old campaign was cut short by a suspensory injury to his right front leg. This would take him out of the Kentucky Derby so he was rested for what was expected to be a summer campaign. He was almost ready to return to racing but he injured himself again, this time injuring his hock in a stall accident making it so he could barely walk for several months. These injuries kept him off the racetrack for 15 months before finally returning in an allowance race at Lone Star Park on July 3, 2021, as a 4-year-old. Four-year-old season Despite a long layoff, he won his first race back at Lone Star Park starting in fifth but only getting stronger throughout to win by 2 lengths. Later that same month he travelled to Del Mar racetrack for the San Diego Handicap. He started slowly and never threatened finishing eighth in a nine-horse field and finishing 9 3/4 lengths behind the winner Royal Ship. He improved in his next start the Pat O'Brien but was strung 7 wide into the far turn and was a distant third place. His third start would be at Churchill Downs for the Ack Ack Stakes. He was able to come from behind on a very fast early pace being sixth early on but making ground on the outside and being second at the top of the stretch. There he faced a serious challenge from Injunction to his inside but he was able to successfully hold him off to win by 1 1/4 lengths. This was his first graded stakes victory and put him on equal footing with his older half brother Runaway Ghost. It was the second graded stakes victory for Joe Peacock Sr and trainer Todd Fincher. Their final race of the year would be his Grade 1 debut in the Breeders Cup Dirt Mile. The Ack Ack stakes is a part of the Breeders Cup Challenge series giving Senor Buscador an automatic paid birth into the race. He broke the slowest of the 9 contenders and stayed wide and near the back of the pack the whole way and finished eighth 13 1/2 lengths behind Cody's Wish. Five-year-old season With no injuries, his 5-year-old season would be his first full campaign. It began at Sunland Park in the Curibot Handicap where he was the overwhelming favorite at odds of 1–9. The distant second choice was his holder half-brother Sheriff Brown who was also coming off a win two starts back and an underwhelming effort on Breeders Cup day. Senor Buscador was unhurried early on only being ahead of Sheriff Brown in the first quarter of a mile. Senor Buscador preferred a fast pace to close into but in the Curibot Handicap Limonite took the lead immediately and made a very slow pace. Running the first quarter in 25.52 and the half in 49.67. Despite this Senor Buscador caught up to him at the top of the stretch and hooked up briefly before pulling away to win by four lengths. His next two races were the Oaklawn Handicap, and the Hollywood Gold Cup with both having similar results. He was pinched out at the start forcing him to trail the field early on. By the time he caught up he was forced to go wide into the far turn and flattened out. Finishing fourth in the Oaklawn Handicap and fifth in the Hollywood Gold Cup. Two months later he tried for a second time to win the San Diego Handicap. He dropped as far back as 11 1/2 lengths behind the leaders early and benefited greatly from a fast pace set by Brickyard Ride a sprinter who was attempting to stretch out in distance. When Brickyard Ride faded Slow Down Andy took the lead for a brief moment but Senor Buscador was travelling the best and flew past all of them to win by 1 1/4 in his second graded stakes victory and his first Grade 2. One month later and he was back at Del Mar to run in the Pacific Classic where he trailed as usual and was given a fast pace to close into by Arabian Knight but he went six wide into the far turn and only rallied fast enough to finish fourth. He did one better in the Awesome Again getting his first grade 1 showing when he navigated in and out of horses on a sloppy racetrack. This would be his final prep before he raced in the Breeders Cup Classic his second participation in a Breeders Cup race. The best he could do was seventh place. His final start of the year would be the Cigar Mile at Aqueduct Racetrack making it his 10th racetrack in 16 starts. It was the first time since his win in the Ack Ack Stakes that he was going to run a one-turn race. It resulted in a second-place finish, despite going wider than he had ever before going eight wide in this race he was unable to catch the runaway leader Hoist The Gold who had opened up five lengths at the top of the stretch and Senor Buscador was unable to reach him. Six-year-old season Senor Buscador arrived early for the 2024 Pegasus World Cup in order to be better prepared. While his connections were confident that he could run well there was some concern on if he could make enough ground at Gulfstream Park a racetrack that has a reputation for favouring speed horses and not closers. Despite this Senor Buscador was able to rally from 12 1/2 lengths off the pace while staying on the rail until the top of the stretch saving ground that he usually lost thanks to his need to avoid traffic to make his best run late. He past the exhausted Hoist The Gold to take second but when he went up to challenge the leader National Treasure. he was held off in deep stretch by only a neck. It was considered one of his best performances of his career and shortly after the race he was given an invitation to the 2024 Saudi Cup the richest horse race in the world The Friday before the Saudi Cup a minority interest lease was bought into the horse by Sharaf Mohammed S. Al-Hariri that was intended to last through the horses time in the Middle East and only included the earnings he acquired during his time racing and did not include breeding rights On raceday he was considered an outsider at 13-1 with the 6-5 favorite being another American horse White Abarrio who had defeated Senor Buscador by 5 1/4 lengths in the Breeders Cup Classic. Other horses had finished ahead of Senor Buscador that were back for Saudi Cup included 2023 Dubai World Cup winner Ushba Tesoro, 2023 UAE Derby winner Derma Sotogake, and the horse who beat him in his previous start National Treasure. Senor Buscador as expected started the race in last place. The race was under a very fast pace by Saudi Crown and National Treasure who stalked in second place. With 300 yards to go Senor Buscador still had most of the field to pass. He and Ushba Tesoro were both flying from the back of the pack but Ushba Tesoro was ahead of Senor Buscador. With 50 yards to go Senor Buscador was fourth and Ushba Tesoro was second with Saudi Crown still in front. Ushba Tesoro would quickly surge past Saudi Crown and take the lead for a brief moment but to his outside was Senor Buscador who was now traveling the fastest. In the final strides Senor Buscador had his head in front right on the finish line winning the Saudi Cup by the smallest margin in the races history. It was also the fastest Saudi Cup ever run setting a new stakes record time of 1:49.50. It was the first Grade 1 win for the horse, trainer, and owner as well as their first victory outside of America. Trainer Fincher was quoted after the race saying "I'm about to cry, It's amazing. He's never got the credit he deserves, I'm so proud of the horse. I didn't believe, something always happens to him. He always runs good and hard. We knew he'd run good, we had to hope for the right set-up and we got it.” His next race would be the Dubai World Cup at Meydan Racecourse with hopes of becoming the first horse to win both the Saudi Cup and Dubai World Cup the first and second richest dirt races in the world. He would have a rematch with Ushba Tesoro who had won the race the previous year. But the race was stolen on the lead by a local horse named Laurel River who was able to run the race at his own pace and only got further and further away from the pack until it was impossible to catch him at the top the stretch. At the wire, he won the race by 8 1/2 lengths with Ushba Tesoro passing Senor Buscador on the outside to claim a distant second-place finish while Senor Buscador finished third. Finishing no worse than third in three multimillion-dollar horse races in two months. References Thoroughbred racehorses 2018 racehorse births Racehorses bred in Kentucky Saudi Cup winners

Naminapu Maymuru-White
Naminapu "Nami" Maymuru-White (born 1952) is a senior Yolŋu artist of North East Arnhem Land, in the Northern Territory of Australia. She is known for representing her the songlines of her clan, the Maŋgalili group, especially the stars and their reflections in the local rivers. She has been invited to exhibit at the Venice Biennale in July 2024. Early life Naminapu Maymuru-White was born in 1952 at Djarrakpi in North East Arnhem Land, Northern Territory, into the Maŋgalili clan of Yolŋu people (an Aboriginal Australian people of northern Australia). Mentored by her father Nänyin Maymuru (1918–1969) and his Narritjin Maymuru (1922–1982), both senior Maŋgalili artists lawmen, she was one of the first Yolŋu women to be taught to paint miny'tji (sacred clan designs). She became known as "Nami". Career Maymuru-White was formerly curator of Buku-Larrŋgay Mulka art centre at Yirrkala. She has travelled around Australia as well as to Japan for her work. Art practice Her earlier work consisted mainly of miny'tyi, but Maymuru-White developed her own original designs that also relate to her clan identity. Maymuru-White is especially known for her work illustrating the Yolŋu concept of Milŋiyawuy, an epic songline that connects terrestrial and spiritual themes. She paints on bark, larrakitj (memorial poles), and canvas, using a traditional fine brush made of human hair tied to a wooden skewer, called the marwat. The Milŋiyawuy songline relates the story of two ancestral spirits known as Guwak who travelled from the Maŋgalili homeland ( south of Yirrkala, down the Milŋiya River. Upon reaching the mouth, their vessel capsized, and their spirits were transformed into stars, known to non-Indigenous people as the Milky Way. Her Milky Way paintings are created using black and white stone and clay pigments, and comprise streams of stars. The connection between the earthly, space, and spiritual elements reflects the Maŋgalili view that there is no separation between them. It is meant to represent a journey after death to a place where people can feel comforted. She sees an important part of her work as teaching young people their culture. Maymuru-White lives and works in Yirrkala. Recognition and awards 1996: Telstra National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Art Award for "Best Work on Paper", for Nyapilingu 1998: Joint runner-up, National Indigenous Heritage Art Award, Normandy Art Award, for her bark Maŋgalili 2005: Wandjuk Marika 3D Memorial Award, for a Milŋiyawuy memorial poles Exhibitions and collections Maymuru-White's work has often been included in group exhibitions both in Australia and internationally, and is represented in most Australian major institutional collections as well as several overseas ones.

In 2019 and 2020, the solo exhibitions, River of Stars at Salon Art Projects, Darwin, and Approximately Infinite Universe at The Cross Arts Projects in Sydney, sold out. In February/March 2022 an exhibition of her work entitled Milŋiyawuy—The River of Heaven and Earth, was exhibited at Sullivan+Strumpf, a commercial gallery in Melbourne with whom she had established a business relationship.

Yin decided to establish a news magazine to address Taiwan's international information deficit. The magazine primarily focuses on finance, with additional coverage of politics, humanities, and environmental protection. It is well known for its annual ranking of the top 2000 Taiwanese enterprises. CommonWealth has generally been regarded as politically neutral, although occasional criticism has emerged regarding a perceived leaning towards the pan-blue coalition in recent years. In 1986, Yin Yu-peng and Charles Kao had different visions for the company. Yu aimed to concentrate on domestic issues in Taiwan, while Kao intended to expand into the Chinese market. As a result, CommonWealth was divided into three divisions: CommonWealth Magazine, chaired by Yu; , led by Kao; and , with Wang Lixing as the chief editor. In 2021, on the 40th anniversary of CommonWealth, Yu announced his retirement and appointed six executives, including Wu Yin-Chuen, the current president of the company, to co-lead the organization. The magazine has also received several Golden Tripod awards, including Best Digital Publication and Best Financial and Current Affairs Magazine in the 42nd and 45th Golden Tripods.

Margarida Gil
Maria Margarida Gil Lopes' (born 1950) is a Portuguese filmmaker, teacher and artist. She has been president of the Association of Portuguese Directors. She collaborated with and was married to the director, actor and film critic, João César Monteiro. Early life Margarida Gil was born on 7 September 1950 in Covilhã, a city in the centre of Portugal, where she went to high school. In 1968, at the age of 17, she and her family moved to the Portuguese capital of Lisbon, where she attended the Faculty of Arts of the University of Lisbon at the same time as supporting herself by working at the Santa Casa da Misericórdia de Lisboa. She graduated in Germanic Philology, although her earlier plans were to study fine arts and become a painter. Gil began to attend sessions that the Cinemateca Portuguesa promoted, and during the showing of a cycle of films of the German director, F.W. Murnau, she met João César Monteiro, who was finishing the filming of his short film Quem Espera por Sapatos de Defunto Morre Descalço (Who Waits for the Dead Man's Shoes Dies Barefoot). Through this connection to Monteiro, she became close to many Portuguese film directors, meeting many of the leading lights at the time, such as António-Pedro Vasconcelos, Jorge Silva Melo, Solveig Nordlund, Alberto Seixas Santos, Paulo Rocha, and Fernando Lopes. Monteiro asked her to be the assistant director on his next film, Fragmentos de um Filme-Esmola: A Sagrada Família, shot in 1972 and 1973. Career After the 1974 Carnation Revolution she got a job at Emissora Nacional, working on radio news programmes. In 1975 she returned to work with Monteiro in Que Farei com Esta Espada? (What will I do with this sword?), as an assistant director and actress. In 1976 she participated in the creation of Grupo Zero, a film production cooperative, with Seixas Santos, Nordlund, Monteiro, Melo, Acácio de Almeida, and others. In the same year she joined Radio Televisão Portuguesa (RTP), the renamed Emissora Nacional, directing several documentaries. Her work included Clínica Comunal Popular da Cova da Piedade, about an old building occupied by the people and then transformed into a clinic that would provide the first serious family planning in the area. It would be awarded a prize at Dok Leipzig, the Leipzig Film Festival. In 1978 she began to direct shows on RTP2. In parallel, she continued her film career with Monteiro, by then her husband, working on his films, Veredas, as an assistant director and actress, O Amor das Três Romãs, as an actress, and Silvestre, as assistant director. In 1986, she was the executive producer of À Flor do Mar, produced by Monteiro & Gil, the production company they formed, which also produced her first feature-length work as a film director, Recção Fiel e Verdadeira (Faithful and True Relationship), shot in 1986, which was presented at the Venice Film Festival in 1987 but not shown in Portugal until 1989. Soon afterwards, she made the television film Flores Amargas, which looked at Timorese refugees housed near Lisbon. Other television films included several experimental films based on the life and work of the Portuguese poet and writer, Fernando Pessoa. In 1992, she made her second feature film, Rosa Negra (Black Rose), which was shown at the Locarno Film Festival but never had a commercial premiere. Subsequently, Gil made several video documentaries, notably Maria, for the World Conference on Women, 1995, which took place in Beijing, and As Chosen, about the life and work of the painter Graça Morais. In 1998, she made O Anjo da Guarda (The Guardian Angel), which received an award at the Rome Film Festival and the Figueira da Foz Film Festival. She then left RTP and began teaching and research at the Faculty of Social and Human Sciences of NOVA University Lisbon. In 2003, she acted in Monteiro's last film Vai e Vem. Monteiro died in 2003. He had dedicated his 1998 film, As Bodas de Deus, to Gil. In 2012 she released the film, Paixão. In February 2024 her film Mãos no Fogo (Hands in the Fire), a film loosely inspired by the horror novella, The Turn of the Screw by Henry James, was shown at the 74th Berlin International Film Festival. Artistic work After 2000, while continuing to make films, Gil returned to her early love of painting, drawing and sculpture. An exhibition of her ceramic sculptures was held in Cascais in 2024. Awards and Nominations In 2005 Gil was awarded the Lifetime Career Award at the Rome Film Festival. In the same year she won the Feature Film Grand Prix at IndieLisboa for the film Adriana, which was also nominated for the 2006 Portugal Golden Globes, with Ana Moreira receiving the Best Actress award for her role in the film. In 2012 the Escola Superior Artística do Porto (ESAP) awarded Gil the Aurélio Paz do Reis Prize, in recognition of her cinematographic career.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hedevig%20Paus
Hedevig Paus
Hedevig Christine Paus (29 October 1763 – 7 March 1848) was a Norwegian businesswoman and the grandmother of the playwright Henrik Ibsen. Henrik Ibsen's parents, Knud and Marichen—Hedevig's daughter—grew up as close relatives, sometimes referred to as "near-siblings," and both belonged to the tightly intertwined Paus family at the Rising estate and in Altenburggården – that is, the extended family of the sibling pair Hedevig Paus and Ole Paus. Ibsen named or modelled various characters after family members, and the main character of "Hedvig" in his masterpiece The Wild Duck was named after her. Biography She was born at Bjåland in Lårdal in 1763. A member of the regionally prominent Paus family of civil servants, she was the daughter of the forest inspector of Upper Telemark, Cornelius Paus, and Christine Falck. Cornelius's father and grandfather were both chief district judges of Upper Telemark. Hedevig was the sister of the ship's captain and shipowner Ole Paus, and of Martha Paus (1761–1786), who was married to the shipowner and timber merchant Hans Jensen Blom. In 1794, she married the ship's captain Johan Andreas Altenburg, who early ceased sailing and settled down as a wealthy shipowner and merchant in Skien. At the beginning of the 1800s, the Altenburg family was among the wealthiest merchant families in the port city of Skien. Johan Andreas Altenburg "owned properties valued between twenty and thirty thousand, including a large mansion, a spirits distillery at Lundetangen, which was the second largest in the county, as well as a farm in the countryside at Århus and two ships engaged in the timber trade." Her husband died in 1824, and she then took over his businesses. The following year, their daughter Marichen Altenburg married Knud Ibsen, who was the stepson of Hedevig's brother Ole Paus. Hedevig then transferred the assets to her daughter, and according to the laws of the time, they became the property of her son-in-law. The fortune enabled Knud Ibsen to establish himself as one of Skien's leading merchants in the late 1820s and early 1830s. One of her brother's sons, and Knud's half-brothers, Henrik Johan Paus, was also raised by Hedevig and Johan Andreas Altenburg. The families of Paus, Altenburg, and Ibsen were, therefore, very closely and intricately interwoven, and the marriage between Marichen and Knud has been described as "a perfect family arrangement." Hedevig Paus was the grandmother of Henrik Ibsen. Henrik Ibsen named many literary characters after family members, and he gave his grandmother's name to the character "Hedvig (Ekdal)" in The Wild Duck. Ibsen also wrote that he had used his own family and childhood memories as the model for the Gynt family in Peer Gynt. References Henrik Ibsen

Casa de Ganaderos de Zaragoza
The Casa de Ganaderos de Zaragoza or Brotherhood of San Simón y San Judas (House of Livestock Breeders of Zaragoza) is an institution of medieval origin that was established to defend the privileges granted by the kings to the cattle owners of the kingdom, also bringing together corporately mayorales and herders. After seeing its powers drastically reduced since the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, it changed its name and legal status (local board, association, union or cooperative, which is the one with which it continues to operate today; which makes it the oldest company in Spain). The territorial breadth of its activity included ravines for the herds of sheeps transhumants from the Pyreneess valleys to the Sistema Ibérico of Teruel. As a privileged corporation of the Ancien Régime, it is similar to the Mesta Castilian, although it precedes it in time and survived it. Unlike the Crown of Castile, the Kingdom of Aragon did not create a common institution for the whole kingdom, but in each locality, independent of each other and far from royal control. History After the granting to the city of Zaragoza of the extensive grazing privileges by Alfonso the Battler after the conquest of the Muslim kingdom (1118), called the privilege of the Twenty and the privilege of the Universal Pasture (granted between 1129 and 1235 to several Aragonese localities), it was necessary to create institutions to regulate it, although it was not until 18 May 1218 that King James I of Aragon appointed Domingo de Montealteto Justice of the Cattle Breeders of Zaragoza, with civil and criminal jurisdiction over such matters (civil since 1391, according to the confirmation of privileges by King John I of Aragon). In 1229 the first texts appear that name the brotherhood, headed by the Justice, who is elected from among its members (from 40 to 80 brotherhoods), in addition to other positions, such as lieutenant of Justice, councillors, ligalleros, vedaleros and scribes. The Zaragoza brotherhood will be the most prominent in the kingdom. The trials of the Justice were summary executions, including the death penalty, and he maintained his own gallows on the road to San Gregorio (Cascajo neighborhood). He came to have jurisdictional conflicts with the Justice of Aragon, without this institution being able to intervene in the private affairs of the Casa de Ganaderos. Conflicts with other Aragonese cities were also frequent, which provoked protests in the Cortes de Monzón of 1626 and the Cortes de Monzón of 1646. This wide freedom enjoyed by Zaragoza may have been the reason why in the Alterations of Aragon, in which the city of Zaragoza took up arms against King Philip II of Spain, they did not find much help from the rest of the kingdom. In the reign of King Philip V of Spain the judicial competences in criminal matters of the House were submitted to the Audience, and the Justice will be ratified in his appointment by the Audience. In 1828, King Ferdinand VII, in exchange for a substantial payment, confirmed the privileges of the House except for the jurisdictional ones, and from then on the adaptation of the institution to the contemporary economic system began. The archive of the House preserves documentary sources of great importance for the reconstruction of a large period of economic and social history. Currently, celebrating its VIII centenary in 2018, it is dedicated to the commercialization of 1st quality lamb meat, from its partners. Similar institutions There is a House of Cattlemen of Tauste, of similar origin and operation, and another in Ejea, with a brotherhood dedicated to Santo Domingo. There were other brotherhoods in towns throughout the Ebro region, from Logroño to Tortosa, including the Brotherhoods of the Bardenas of Navarra and Aragón from 1204 and others in Aragón from 1220. With the name of mestas, there were similar institutions in Tarazona and Albarracín; and with that of ligallo in Caspe, Teruel, Daroca, Calatayud and many other towns and even villages. In the Pyrenees there were facerías, pastoral boards and assemblies of a different nature (such as the Casa del Broto), and already in the CE 18th century, the General Board of Mountain Ranchers.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Khorasani%20dialect
Khorasani dialect
The Khorasani (Xorasani) dialect is one of the dialects of the Persian language that some people in the historical regions of Khorasan and Qumis speak. The Khorasani dialect was spoken by the native and original people of this historical territory, which encompassed the modern-day countries of Tajikistan, Afghanistan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan and all the northeastern parts of Iran. The Persian dialect of Khorasani is one of the original and important dialects of the Persian language. It is valued highly due to the large number of people who speak it and also due to the strong base that the Persian language has always had in Khorasan. Many words that were part of the Middle Persian language are still popular and have remained alive and working in Khorasani, but have been lost in other Persian dialects. Sub-divisions The Khorasani dialect is generally divided into two groups: Eastern Khorasani and Western Khorasani. Eastern Khorasani (or Tajiki) is spoken in central and eastern parts of Afghanistan and Tajikistan. Western Khorasani is spoken in Khorasan Province and eastern parts of Semnan Province in Iran, and Herat and surrounding provinces in Afghanistan. Distribution The Khorasani Persian dialect is the only Iranian Persian dialect that is spoken outside of Iran. It is spoken in the east from Herat, from the west to the border of Mazandaran (Shahroud, Damghan), and from the north in Bojnourd. However, as we move towards the north of Khorasan, the presence of Kurdish and Turkic languages of Khorasan and the effects of these two languages on the Persian dialect of the region increases. From the south of Khorasan to the nearby city of Nehbandan, the dialects of Sistan and Kerman become more apparent. Ivanov and Kolbasi’s Classification of Khorasani Persian Ivanov divides the Khorasani dialects into three main groups: the northern group, which is spoken in Jovin, Sabzevar and Neishabur; the central group which is common in Tarshiz and Gonabad; and the southern group whose speakers live in Qain, Tun and Birjand. In his opinion, the difference between these three groups is very small and they cannot be considered separate dialects; In addition, these groups have borrowed many words from each other. However, unlike Ivanov, Kolbasi places the dialects of Khorasan region under a distinct branch of the modern south western Iranian languages, with varieties including Sabzevari, Nishabori, Kashmiri, Kakhki, Qaeni and Birjandi among the dialects, while considering Mashadi as a standard dialect of standard Iranian Persian. Numbers Numbers in the Khorasani Persian dialect are not very different from standard Persian, but differ in pronunciation. References Persian dialects and varieties

Henry Otter
Henry Otter was a footballer who played in the 1877 FA Cup final for Oxford University. Early life Otter was born in 1856, the fifth son of Charles (an examiner in the Court of Chancery) and Elinor (née Parker), and educated at Winchester College, which was an early adopter of the association laws. In 1870 he was the last pupil "head" to undergo the dangerous tradition of 'chairing'. This involved the leading Queen's Scholar being carried on a raised chair around Great Dean's Yard and Little Dean's Yard, with Town boys ceremonially opposing the carrying, and creating a scuffle under the raised chair; the ceremony was abolished after Otter's chairing. In 1874, he went up to Christ Church College, Oxford, as a junior student, also taking a pupillage at Lincoln's Inn in 1876; he took a first in Honour Moderations in 1878. Sporting career Otter was something of a prodigy at football; he made his debut in association football for Westminster School against Upton Park at Vincent Square on 22 October 1870, when he was not yet 15 years old. Four days later he scored his first goal, the fourth in a 4–0 win over West Kent, after scrimmages before the Kentish posts. However he missed much of the 1871–72 season through illness. However, for the 1873–74 season he was chosen as captain. He also appeared as a guest player for Barnes in a handful of matches, the first being a defeat at the Royal Engineers in October, and played for the Wanderers, debuting for the famous club in a win over Gitanos in November. One month later, he made his FA Cup debut, playing for Wanderers against Oxford University, although unusually as a full-back. The match ended in a draw and he was moved up front for the replay at the University Parks, but a weakened Wanderers went down 1–0. He made his representative debut for the Middlesex county side against Surrey at the Kennington Oval in January 1874, and scored the final Middlesex goal with a cross-shot in a 4–2 win. For the 1874–75 FA Cup, his loyalties switched to his university, and scored the decisive second goal in the third round win over the Wanderers. He was also now able to play in the Varsity match against Cambridge University, which he did twice; the first time in the autumn 1874 match, which went Cambridge's way (although Otter was singled out for the quality of his play), and the second time in November 1875, which Oxford won 4–1, Otter scoring the first goal, shortly after which injury reduced Oxford to 10 men. He remained a regular in the Oxford side until the 1877–78 FA Cup, and demonstrated "clever" dribbling in the 1877 FA Cup final, despite which the university lost to the Wanderers. His final match of note was for the Wanderers in their closing match of the 1877–78 season, against the Vale of Leven at the Oval, the game ending 3–1 to the visitors. Otter was also a noted athlete, finishing second in the Varsity athletics hammer throw in 1878 with a throw of 98' 10". Post-university Otter joined the Indian Civil Service in 1878, being sent out as an assistant to the magistrate of Tinnevelly in the Madras Presidency. He returned to England in 1879, suffering from dysentery, of which he died at the end of that year.

Jack Satherley
Jack Satherley (17 December 1910 – 29 June 1994) was a rugby league player. He represented the New Zealand rugby league team in 5 matches in 1937 and 1938 predominantly at hooker. In the process he became the 255th player to represent New Zealand. He previously played rugby union for Manukau Rovers in Auckland in the early 1930s before switching to the rugby league code in late 1933 when he joined the Richmond Rovers rugby league club. He also represented Auckland, Auckland Pākehā, and the North Island. His older brother was Cliff Satherley who also played rugby league for New Zealand. Early life Leslie Charles John Manson Satherley, more commonly known as Jack Satherley was born on December 17, 1910, in Blenheim. His parents were Ingress Cecilia Manson (1880–1930), and Charles Herbert Satherley (1865–1944). His mother had been married previously to Soren Hansen however she petitioned for divorce in February 1904. They had two children together, Sorine Elvine Hansen (b.1897) and William Claus Hansen (b.1900). The Star (Christchurch) newspaper reported from the proceedings that "when fifteen years of age, in 1897, she married [Hansen] at Wellington, with her parents' consent, her father being present at the marriage. Respondent was alleged to have led a drunken life. Two years after the marriage her husband came home and said he "had had enough of her, and was off". Since then she had seen nothing of him. He was reported to be in Dannevirke, but inquiries failed to find him. She was ill after his desertion, and her baby [Sorine] 14 months old, died. Justice Cooper remarked upon "criminal conduct of parents in consenting to such early marriages"; a girl didn't know her own mind at fifteen, and she was not fit to bear children. Petitioner had not, at the time of her marriage, even reached the maximum school age”. She remarried Charles Herbert Satherley in 1905. They had three children, Clifford (Cliff) (1907–1947), Phyllis Ida (1909–1986), and Jack. The first mention of Jack occurred in the Nelson Evening Mail on June 18, 1923. Jack, would have been aged 12 at the time. He was charged with riding a bicycle at night at Appleby without a light. He was fined 5 shillings. Playing career Rugby union Manukau Rovers (1929-31) It is unclear when exactly Jack moved to Auckland however his older brother began playing for the Manukau rugby union club in 1926 so it is likely Jack moved at the same time. The first confirmed report of Jack playing senior rugby in Auckland was for Manukau on May 25, 1929. The match was played at Eden Park with Manukau losing 9–6 to University. The Sun newspaper wrote “Satherley, a brother of the forward [Cliff], who was given a trial on the wing, should develop into a useful man”. He nearly scored late in the game when he crossed the in goal area but was taken into touch in goal. Jack spent the remainder of the season back in Manukau's second grade side. He began to be named in the Manukau senior A squad to start the 19130 season. He was named in extended squads of 19 in the early rounds but was not mentioned in any match reports. In their loss to Ponsonby on May 24 he played in the forwards with the Sun saying “John Brimble, Pepper, Dixon, and J. Satherley were also honest packmen”. He then moved on to the wing for their following games including an 8–3 win over Training College on June 21 at Waikaraka Park in Onehunga which was their home ground. The following week in an 8–4 win over College Rifles he was involved in a “nice passing movement” with Cotter and Stewart which resulted in Pile scoring. In the second half he was warned by the referee for “rather wild work in the loose”. On July 5 Manukau lost to Marist 11-0 but Satherley was “noticeable in several good solo runs”. He played in further matches against Ponsonby, Training College (x2), and City before the season ended with a loss to University on September 13 and a default loss a week later to Technical College. The newspapers did not cover the matches in great detail so it is unknown how he played in these matches. The 1931 season saw Satherley established in the first grade side, playing in 19 matches. He was credited with 2 tries though the newspapers would often omit scoring details from their match descriptions so it is likely that he scored several more given he was playing on the wing. His first game of the season was against Grammar Old Boys on May 2. In a 13–3 loss to University on May 9 it was said that on the wing he “showed pace and a clever swerve”. The New Zealand Herald reported that he received a cut on the head and retired” during the second half. A week later on May 16 Jack played against his brother Cliff who had transferred to Ponsonby at the start of the season. It was said that Cliff was one of the “most conspicuous among the pack” and he scored their lone try, with Manukau winning 9–5. Jack was said to have been “prominent” along with Biss on the other wing in Manukau's draw with Technical Old Boys on May 23. A week later Manukau lost to Grafton in Onehunga by 3 points to 0. With the score in Grafton's favour late “the two Stuarts, Biss, and Satherley were desperate in their efforts to smash the defence” but to no avail. The Auckland Star went on to say that “Satherley played a very determined game as winger, and was hard to stop when he saw the line ahead”. The same newspaper a week later described him as “sound” in their 3–3 draw with Marist. The Herald said that he was “outstanding” along with the Stuart brothers in the backs. He gave “a dashing performance” on the right wing in their June 13 game against Training College. He played “well” on the wing in an 11–8 win over College Rifles at the Show Grounds on June 20. He scored Manukau's lone try in a 5–0 win on Eden Park No. 3 against Technical Old Boys on July 25. The try came after “a melee on the line, Satherley diving over” after “a rough and tumble”. It was said that he and fellow winger C. Stuart “were essentially individualists, lacking support”. He scored another try 2 weeks later on August 8 in an 11–3 win over College Rifles on Eden Park No. 3. He “dived over in the early stages” to give them a 3–0 lead. The Auckland Star was he was the only Manukau back “who showed any dash”. Though the NZ Herald said that both he and Bill Turei were “outstanding” on the wings. On September 19 Manukau played in the final of the Pollard Cup against Technical Old Boys at Eden Park. Technical won 16–10. In the first half he “broke clean away, but when blocked, passed inside. Harris intercepted and pulled Tech. out of a difficult position”. His final two games of the season were a round 2 knockout game against Ponsonby which they won 8–6 on October 3. And then a 20–18 win over Patumahoe in a friendly match on October 10 at the later teams ground. Rugby League Richmond Rovers There was no mention of Satherley playing rugby in Auckland or elsewhere in 1932. In fact he was not mentioned again until an October 14 game between Richmond Rovers rugby league side against the touring St. George from Sydney, Australia. Richmond won 5 points to 3 with Satherley being involved in “fine inside back play” along with Roy Powell and Stan Prentice which “prevented the half-backs, Daly and Carey, from going far”. At the start of the 1934 Auckland Rugby League season Satherley was named in Richmond's round 1 side to play Newton Rangers on April 28 at Carlaw Park. Satherley went on to play 20 games for them during the year. He played at second five eighth (inside centre) in their 18–7 win with the Herald saying “Prentice is not yet quite at his best, but has a promising second five eighth in J. Satherley”. He had been reunited with his brother Cliff who had switched to Richmond in May, 1933. In a 16–9 win over Devonport United on May 26 it was said that R. O’Donnell and Allan Seagar of the shore side “caught Prentice and J. Satherley in possession” “many times”. A week later in a 3–2 win against Newton he “frequently shone out in good defence”. On July 11 Satherley actually played a rugby union game for the Engineers against the Police. He was employed by the railway at the time. As the match was employment based and did not require players to be registered with unions it was allowed. He scored a try in the Engineers 18–8 win and also kicked a conversion. Fellow league player Dan Keane from the Ponsonby club also scored a try and kicked two goals. After returning to the Richmond side on July 21 he switched places with Bert Cooke the legendary former All Black who had switched to rugby league in 1932. Cooke had started at fullback but with Richmond lacking attacking spark he was moved into Satherley's place at second five eighth. Richmond went on to win 13–10. He started at fullback the following week with Richmond winning 18–0 to seal the Fox Memorial championship with three rounds still remaining. The Auckland Star reported that he “did fairly well in a new position, but was well protected by Eric Fletcher at centre”. The Herald said that he, along with several other Richmond backs “did great work in checking the opposing forwards”. Satherley then went on tour with the Richmond team with matches played at New Plymouth against the Taranaki side, and at Napier against the Hawkes Bay side on August 9 and 11 respectively. It is unknown if he played in the game with Taranaki but he was named in the side to play Hawke's Bay at fullback. Richmond won the first match 23-22 while the second was more lop-sided with Richmond winning 37–11. After returning the Auckland he played for Richmond in their 26–5 win over Devonport on August 18 in round 1 of the Roope Rooster competition. He “cleverly produced [their] opening try” assisting Eric Fletcher to score. He was back playing at second five, and the New Zealand Herald was critical of his performance overall saying that “he is too slow [in that position] for the company he is in and several times on Saturday he nullified promising movements by the Richmond rearguard”. In the semi finals he scored his first ever try for Richmond and followed it up later in the game with a second. Richmond won 21–13 over Ponsonby United. He and Prentice “went well together, but the inside back tactics were hardly sharp enough”. The Herald wrote that “the conditions suited J. Satherley, who played well and scored two nice tries”. In the final, on September 8 against Marist Old Boys he scored once more in their 20–13 win. He was part of a “strong back combination” of Prentice, Powell, Fletcher, and Cooke, all of whom played for New Zealand. Satherley's try came after Powell kicked ahead before Ray Lawless gathered and sent him over “for a fine try” with the Herald saying he played “his usual sound game”. With the season in its later stages the Western Suburbs side from Sydney was on a 5 match tour of Auckland. Western Suburbs were the NSW champions and had played games against Marist and Newton before a game with Richmond on September 29. Satherley was named at second five eighth with Stan Prentice at first five. Richmond won 18 to 16 before 15,000 spectators at Carlaw Park with Satherley supporting Prentice well and the two of them “frequently conspicuous for good play”. In a review of the players play later in the week the Herald said “great improvement on attack was also shown by J. Satherley, while his defence was as sound as ever”. The Western Suburbs side played a Ponsonby XIII on October 3 before a second game against Richmond to conclude their tour on October 6. He started at second five but at halftime he moved to fullback with Bert Cooke coming up to take his place. In the first half Prentice and Satherley “bottled up” Hey and Williams and “broke the back of the Australian attack”. His final match of the season was against Newton in the Stormont Shield final on October 13. Richmond won 21–5 to complete a rare feat by winning all three major first grade trophies (Fox Memorial, Roope Rooster, and Stormont Shield). Satherley was said to have played “a sound game at fullback”. Moved into the Richmond forwards (1935) The 1935 season saw Satherley move into the forwards for Richmond. He mainly played in the second row and backrow but also was tried out at hooker and at the end of the year in his last game played at second five once more. In total he was not as busy, playing 15 games for Richmond and not being selected for a handful of matches. His first game was against Newton on April 27 with Richmond winning 27–15. He was playing with his brother Cliff in the forwards and they, along with Joe Ginders, Alf Broadhead, and Ray Lawless “were a power in the open”. On May 11 against Devonport Satherley made possibly his first ever appearance at hooker, a position he was to ultimately represent New Zealand in two years later. The Auckland Star reported that he “was only fair in winning the ball from [Tony] Milicich”. Following a 5–3 loss to Mount Albert United on June 3 it was said that “[Harold] Tetley, C. Satherley, J. Satherley, and Lawless” were the best of the forwards”. While another article echoed those comments saying “Broadhead, Tetley, and the Satherley brothers were hard workers in the heavy ruck”. A week later on June 29 he “played a fine game in the Richmond forwards…” in their 28–0 win over Devonport. .Due to the nature of the hooker position in this era Satherley was not mentioned much in match reports as the majority of his work was confined to scrummaging. There were many more than there are in the modern game and the contest was much more physically demanding. The next mention of him was in a game on August 31 in the semi final of the Roope Rooster. Richmond had beaten the same team 3 weeks earlier to claim the Fox Memorial first grade championship title once more. In the knockout match Richmond won again, 20–6 with Satherley scoring his only try of the year. With Lawless playing a great game it was mentioned that Bill Telford and “the Satherley brothers were a tower of strength in the loose”. The players wore white armbands as a mark of respect for their coach Thomas McClymont who's father had died during the week. McClymont was New Zealand's most successful rugby league coach, coaching the New Zealand side in 1928, and again from 1936 to 1952, as well as coaching Richmond through their historical era in the 1930s as well as Ponsonby, Auckland, and Canterbury, and later Northern Districts. Previous to this he played 100 games for Ponsonby, 17 for Auckland, and 16 for New Zealand. In the final a week later on September 7 Satherley had a chance to tie the scores against Newton. It was a rare (penalty) kick at goal for Jack as usually it was his brother Cliff doing the kicking. However he was away with the Auckland side, along with Bert Cooke, Eric Fletcher, and Bill Telford. The Auckland Star wrote “there was a breathless hush as J. Satherley placed the ball well out from the uprights, sighted and then set it in flight with a powerful kick. Unfortunately for Richmond the kick went astray, and they trooped off the field the defeated side – a rare experience for them over the past two seasons”. His final game of the season was against the same Newton side in the Stormont Shield final. Richmond avenged their loss with a 26–15 win on September 14. He and Prentice were reunited in the five eighths but were said to be “a little slow on attack, but did useful work on defence”. They were apparently “shaded in the early stages when Newton opened with Elan, winning the set scrums and by possessive cohesion were making the play. Later, however, the pair, with Powell varying his methods behind the pack, were seen to better advantage”. Auckland and North Island selection (1936) In 1936 Jack Satherley made his rugby league representative debut. He played 2 games for Auckland and also was selected for the North Island team to play in their annual match with the South Island. He also was busy for Richmond, playing in 19 games, scoring 2 tries. His first match of the season was an ‘special opening match’ for Richmond against Mount Albert on April 18 before the championship properly began two weeks later. Richmond lost 22–15. Satherley was then named in their opening Fox Memorial championship match with Ponsonby on May 2. In a 13–12 loss to Mount Albert on May 16 he and Metcalfe were said to be “the best forwards” for Richmond. A week later in a 23–13 win against Marist he was “prominent among the forwards” along with Harold Tetley, and Bill Telford. He “played well” once more in a 19–14 win over Newton a week later on May 30. In the main 3pm match at Carlaw Park the following week Tetely was the best Richmond forward but “was well supported by Telford, J. Satherley, [Hermes] Hadley, and [Alf] Broadhead”. Satherley scored his first try of the season in the 13–13 draw with Devonport (North Shore). Then in round 6 in a 15–6 win over Ponsonby Satherley was said to be “in the thick of the heavy rucking” along with Alf Broadhead. Following the game against Ponsonby Satherley was selected in the Auckland team to make his debut for them. Auckland was playing two matches on the same day with neither distinguished as an A or B team. Satherley's side was to play Wellington at Carlaw Park at 1:30pm and featured 6 current or future New Zealand internationals, with the other team playing Auckland Māori at 3pm featuring 10 current or future New Zealand internationals. Satherley was selected at hooker between props Bill Telford (Richmond) and John Donald (Devonport). He was opposed in the Wellington scrum by Dick Moisley, the former Marist and Auckland representative who had moved to Wellington years earlier. Auckland won 25–22 with Satherley said to be among the best of the Auckland forwards. He “scored from nice in-and-out passing” to give Auckland a 19–6 lead. Returning to the Richmond side Satherley scored another try in their 27–11 win over Manukau on June 27. The Herald said that “Telford, J. Satherley, Hadley, and Metcalfe were prominent among a good set of forwards”. After the match he was named in a training squad for Auckland to play the [[England national rugby league team|England in a months time by selector Bert Avery. His weight was published next to his name as being 11 stone, 9 pounds. The following weekend Richmond drew 11–11 with Mount Albert with Satherley named as being one of Richmond's best forwards. Satherley was then selected to make his debut for the North Island team for their July 11 match with the South Island. The selector was Bert Avery and he named Frank Pickrang (Auckland) and Joe Cootes (Wellington) to prop either side of him. He was opposed by Reg Ward (Canterbury). The New Zealand Herald noted that “Pickrang, Satherley, [Edgar] Morgan, [[John] Anderson and Tetley, all of Auckland, have been outstanding in club games this season”. The North Island won a close match by 21 points to 16 before a crowd of 15,000 at Carlaw Park. Satherley then returned to the Richmond side for their round 11 match with Marist on July 18. In atrocious conditions on the number 2 field at Carlaw Park Richmond won 3–0. In comments about the prospects of players vying for Auckland selection it was said in the Herald that “Satherley is … a good forward, but he has not met with outstanding success as a hooker”. On July 20 Satherley was named in the Auckland team to play the touring England side at Carlaw Park on July 25. The Herald wrote that “Satherley, hooker, has a difficult task, as he has not been outstanding in this department in club football”. He was hooking against Tommy Armitt. Auckland lost 22–16 in a “valiant” effort in heavy conditions. The Auckland Star wrote after the game that “the English forwards dwarfed their opponents, but, despite the “mountains of flesh” which they had to carry about, they were surprisingly nimble. T. Armitt, the hooker, had weight to spare for raking the ball and he was rarely beaten for possession by J. Satherley, the Auckland hooker”. It went on to say that “Tetley, S. Watene and A. Gault were a pair of willing workers… while Satherley was always using his weight when required”. At one point in the first half the Auckland forwards broke away with Watene and Satherley heading the movement, but Jim Brough saved the situation for England though New Zealand was awarded a penalty and Watene's successful kick tied the scores at 9–9 before England worked their way back into a lead which they never relinquished. In remarks on the scrums in the Dominion newspaper they said that England “were penalised for handling in the scrum, for shepherding, and because T. Armitt, in the middle of the front row, developed a trick of catching the legs of his opposite number, J. Satherley, between his own when the ball was put in the scrum, and leaving the hooking to be done by the men on the side, either N. Silcock or H. Woods”. Satherley returned to his Richmond side for the remainder of the season. Richmond had been leading the championship but lost to Devonport on August 22 by 5 points to 3. It was noted that “except for Hadley, whose keenness got him occasionally into offside trouble, and J. Satherley, the Richmond forwards were shaded”. The Herald also observed that Hadley was the best forward “while C. Satherley and J. Satherley worked hard”. A week later in a 10–2 win over City Satherley was again “prominent”. On September 12 Richmond lost their semi final match in the Roope Rooster competition to City 10–8. Alf Broadhead was Richmond's best forward with Cliff and Jack Satherley giving “good support”. He then missed Richmond's semi final game in the consolation Phelan Shield competition on September 19 and was instead given permission to play for the Auckland Post and Telegraph rugby union team against the Wellington Post and Telegraph side in an annual game among their employees. The match was played as curtain-raiser to Auckland B v King Country at Eden Park. The Auckland Post and Telegraph team won 17–14 with Satherley scoring a try and giving “a fine exhibition”. Richmond had qualified for the Stormont Shield final against Manukau by virtue of the fact that they had finished runner up in the championship and Manukau had also won the Roope Rooster so Richmond was considered the ‘second best team’ in the course of the season. Richmond won easily by 30 points to 9 on October 3 to finish their season. Late in the first half Satherley picked up a dropped ball and “passed to [Owen] Wilkie who scored”. New Zealand debut (1937) In 1937 Satherley made his debut for New Zealand in the second test against the touring Australia side. He also played for Auckland against South Auckland (Waikato), and Auckland Pākehā against Auckland Māori, along with 18 games for Richmond. His first game of the season was for Richmond against Manukau in a preliminary round game at Carlaw Park on April 17. It was reported in the New Zealand Herald on April 21 that Satherley would be the hooker for Richmond for the season. In their first Fox Memorial championship game Richmond beat Mount Albert 13–10 on May 1 with Satherley “always prominent in the forward line” along with George Mitchell, Bill Telford, and Harold Tetley. Satherley's brother Cliff had transferred to the Mount Albert club where he was player-coach. In a 15–13 loss to North Shore a week later Satherley was again named as one of their best forwards along with Mitchell and Telford. Satherley was then named in the ‘Auckland’ side to play a ‘Māori’ team at Carlaw Park on May 12. This was the first time ever that the two sides at met though it would become a more regular fixture over the following years and decades and in the future the teams were more specifically named Auckland Pākehā, and Auckland Māori. Satherley was named at hooker with Bill Breed and Angus Gault at prop. The Pākehā team won 24 to 14. On May 15 in a 24–6 win over City Satherley “was outstanding for his consistent hooking”. He was not named for their following game against Marist but was named for the following round on May 29 against Newton. In a 15–6 win against Ponsonby on June 5 he was “prominent among the forwards throughout”. Satherley was selected by Hec Brisbane to play for Auckland against South Auckland (Waikato) on June 9. Such was the strength of Auckland rugby league they also chose a side to play Taranaki on the same day. Both teams featured several New Zealand internationals and were of a similar strength with neither singled out as being an ‘A’ or ‘B’ team. He was hooker between Bill Breed and Bill Telford once more, with G. Wintle the South Auckland (Waikato) hooker. Auckland won the match 26–12. Returning to Richmond he played in their crucial 15–2 win over Mount Albert on July 3 and gave “good assistance” to Jack McLeod along with Hermes Hadley, and Bill Telford. Satherley was then named in a New Zealand trial match in the Possibles side by selectors Bert Avery and Thomas McClymont. It was later reported however that Satherley was unavailable and he was replaced by Bert Leatherbarrow. New Zealand test selection On Monday, August 9 Satherley was requested to report for training at the Auckland gymnasium that evening. Eleven players had been called upon following the first test loss (8–12) to Australia 2 days earlier. The Australian team played New Zealand Māori on the Wednesday and suffered an upset loss. The New Zealand selectors, Jim Amos, Thomas McClymont, and Bert Avery then named the second test team with Satherley chosen at hooker. The props would be Angus Gault, and Billy Glynn. Glynn had played hooker in the first test but the selectors had decided to go with a hooking specialist in Satherley for the second match. It was reported that Jack McLeod had picked up an injury in the Māori teams win where he played well at hooker. He had played at lock in the first test. The Herald then wrote later that “the omission of McLeod, who was the successful hooker in the Maori team, comes as a surprise. It is understood McLeod was not injured on Wednesday and his place as hooker is being taken by Satherley, of the Richmond club”. The second test was played at Carlaw Park on August 14 and saw New Zealand register an upset 16–15 win over an injury ravaged Australian side. In the first half Pearce left the field with a broken leg. Then with Australia leading at halftime 15-6 they lost Gibbs to a rib injury shortly after the resumption. Soon after, Satherley went “bursting over to score under the uprights” with George Nēpia converting to narrow the score to 15–11. In the build up Satherley had been associated in a “nice passing bout” with Joe Cootes and Billy Glynn which led directly to the try. Later Nēpia kicked a penalty and then [[Noel Bickerton crossed for a try to give New Zealand the lead before Prigg was also forced from the field with a shoulder injury before the game ended with New Zealand victors. The Herald later said that “Cootes and Satherley gave valuable support and the latter’s try was a fine effort”. Satherley then returned to his Richmond side who suffered a 30-24 loss to Marist. Richmond were in the lead at the time but the loss meant that going into the final round their lead was narrowed to one point over Marist and Mount Albert. Satherley scored a try in the loss and was one of the best Richmond forwards. His try came after Bill Glover made a good tackle on him but Jack McLeod gained possession and sent the ball back to Satherley to cross for the try. They try gave them the lead but a flurry of points saw Marist take a commanding 12 point lead into the half time break. With Richmond needing to win their final round match against Newton to secure the first grade championship they won comfortably by 30 points to 9. Satherley scored two tries in the win. The Auckland Star wrote that “Satherley and Alf Broadhead were always on hand when there was hard work to be done. Satherley incidentally played one of his best games to date and scored twice as a result of fine breakaways”. The Herald also said that Satherley “played his best game this season” and both his tries were “runaways”. Richmond were knocked out of the Roope Rooster and Phelan Shield competitions in the first round before their final game of the season against Marist in the Stormont Shield final on October 2. Marist won 12-5 with the Star reporting that “J. Satherley gave his side signal service in that he won the ball for Richmond with consistency from the set scrums”. New Zealand tour of Australia (1938) The 1938 season saw Satherley once again selected to represent New Zealand when he was chosen for the tour of Australia. He also played for the North Island, twice for Auckland, and 17 matches for Richmond. In Richmond's opening round win over Papakura on April 9 Satherley scored a try. It came after Noel Bickerton and Wally Tittleton combined for Satherley to “race across”. In mid May Satherley was chosen in the Auckland team to play the ‘Rest of the North Island’ side by selectors Bert Avery, Hec Brisbane, and A. Renwick. The Auckland Star wrote “Satherley, of Richmond, is the selectors’ choice as hooker, and his supports will be Gault, of Manukau, and [Des] Herring, of Mount Albert”. He was opposed by W. Brooks of South Auckland (Waikato). Auckland thrashed their opposition by 67 points to 14 with Satherley scoring one of their 15 tries. Following the match he was selected for the North Island team to play the inter-island match against the South Island. The North Island won easily by 55 points to 2 on May 21 at Carlaw Park. Satherley scored a try after Des Herring, Walter Brimble, and Jack Brodrick “were associated in a passing bout” with Satherley finishing it off to give them a 20–2 lead. Satherley was then selected for the New Zealand team to tour Australia. The selectors were Thomas McClymont, Hec Brisbane, and Jim Amos. The Auckland Star remarked that “Orman, the Buller player, proved on Saturday that he is a hooker of great ability, and Satherley, who has played consistently in Auckland club football, showed that he is a good man for the position, provided that the weight is put in by the others. Last season there was a hooking weakness evident, and the standard set by players of the calibre of Lowry and Somers in the past was not reached. This year the weakness appears to be remedied”. The Herald said that “Satherley… will lack nothing in experience, and is also a good forward in the loose”. In profiles of the players they wrote “J.M. Satherley (Auckland) is 25 years of age and weighs 11st. 6lb. He is the other hooker and is capable in this department…” Prior to departing Satherley played a game for Richmond against Mount Albert on May 28 and scored a try. He was “always prominent” in the Richmond forwards and although opponent “Leatherbarrow hooked well, Satherley also got a good share of the ball for Richmond”. After arriving in Australia Satherley was named in the first match of the tour against New South Wales at the Sydney Cricket Ground on June 11. New Zealand lost 25–12 before a crowd of 28,303 with Satherley opposed by Roy Kirkaldy. Despite the scoreline it was said that the New Zealand side impressed onlookers. Satherley was injured in the first half along with Bill McNeight but was able to continue. New Zealand had led during the second half before they lost Arthur Kay to injury and were overcome by New South Wales. The Truth newspaper in Sydney said that “Gault, McNeight, Satherley, and Herring were like tigers in close”. The Sydney Morning Herald reported that “New South Wales gained a two-thirds share of the ball from the scrummages, and in an effort to win more of the ball the New Zealand selectors have decided to change their front row. D. Herring and J. Satherley, the hooker, have been omitted, and their places filled by G. Orman, hooker, and J. Cootes”. New Zealand won the second match with New South Wales 37 points to 18 on June 13. The team then travelled to Lismore to play North Coast on June 15. Satherley was recalled into the side at hooker with Joe Cootes and Des Herring his props. He was marking the North Coast captain J. Bond. New Zealand won 23–2 before 2,200 spectators at the Recreation Ground in Lismore. The Tweed Daily said that “it was not uncommon in the second half to see J. Cootes, Glynn, Satherley, and Herring in complete control of the ball, beating off the individual efforts of McLaren, Bond, Lever, and Norton”. The next game was against Queensland on June 18 at the Brisbane Cricket Ground with George Orman preferred at hooker. W. Sneyd, a photographer for the Telegraph (Brisbane) wrote an opinion piece on the New Zealand side and said “the visitors will test our Queensland rake, because if either Satherley or Orman plays they will be equipped with an expert exponent of the art. Satherley, however, is just as likely to be troublesome in the open as he is in the scrum, because he is fast”. New Zealand lost heavily by 31 points to 11 and the New Zealand Herald later wrote “another great handicap to the touring team was the loss of possession from the scrums. It is surprising that the selectors should see fit to include Orman in preference to Satherley as hooker. Orman has only recently joined the code and has yet to learn the finer points of hooking. On the otherhand, Satherley has had wide experience in this department and has improved each season. Even in the recent inter-island match at Carlaw Park Satherley proved a superior hooker to Orman and, in addition, he is a better all round forward. It would appear, therefore that the selectors would be fully justified in giving Satherley the position in the big games ahead”. Orman was still selected at hooker for the next match against Toowoomba on June 22 which New Zealand won 12–11. Curiously for the second match against Queensland on June 25 Satherley was selected but in the lock position with Orman at hooker once more. It was reported that the New Zealand side had been concentrating on scrummaging at training along with playing the ball and they hoped for “more possession as a result of the altered interpretation of the play-the-ball rule” which was going to be in line with the English interpretation. New Zealand performed much better than their previous match with the same opponent but still lost 21–12 on June 25. The Telegraph said that Satherley and Wally Tittleton “were keeping a close tag on [five eighth] Reardon, who, however did as much as he was able”. Queensland won the penalty count 23-14 and the scrums 28 to 26. The Sunday Mail said that “Satherley was a source of great trouble to Queensland by his sound tackling”. The Referee newspaper also said “Satherley at breakaway tackled ably and performed well allround”. Satherley then moved back into the hooking position for New Zealand's next match on June 29 against NSW Group 4 at Tamworth Oval. New Zealand won 26–15 after leading 16–0 at halftime. He was named to play at lock forward once more for their July 2 match with Newcastle at the Newcastle Sports Ground but was said to be suffering from a heavy cold and ultimately did not play. He was named as a reserve for the final match of the tour against Sydney but was not required to play. The team then arrived back in Auckland on the morning of July 11 on board the Aorangi ship. After their return one of the managers of the team, J.A. Redwood said that “neither Satherley nor Orman… could overcome the opposition they met in the big matches, but the latter showed up well in other branches of play”. He was also quoted as saying that the two hookers “Orman and Satherley, were able to gain their fair share of the ball toward the end of the tour. All the forwards played well and it was unfortunate that Tetley, Satherley, and Gault were injured”. New Zealand played one final match after returning which was against the Auckland side but Satherley was in the reserves and not required to play. Satherley then returned to the Richmond side for the remainder of the season. He was selected in the Auckland team to play Canterbury on August 13. The side was made up entirely of Richmond and Manukau players who were not playing club matches on the day. Despite it being chosen from just two teams the side was still a strong one with ten of the thirteen players being New Zealand representatives. Auckland won a close game 28–22. He then played in Richmond's 20–8 win over City in the final of the Roope Rooster knockout competition. Satherley was named in Richmond for their October 1 match against the touring Eastern Suburbs side. The Herald suggested that Satherley “is likely to gain a good share of the ball for the backs”. Before a crowd of 11,000 Richmond won 11–9. Jack McLeod and Satherley “in particular being at the top of their form”. The Herald wrote that Satherley “has never been seen to better advantage in all-round play. His tackling and following up were splendid, and, as was anticipated, he gave his side a good share of the ball from the scrums”. With Eastern Suburbs leading 3-0 Richmond went on attack and following good work by Merv Devine, Watkins, and McLeod “Satherley snapped up, to give a perfect “dummy” to Norton and scored”. With the score 11-9 “just before time Robinson and Arnold carried the ball near the Richmond line, but Satherley saved with a splendid low tackle”. After the game in an interview the manager of the touring side, Mr. J. Quinlan said “the splendid tackling of the Richmond players also impressed him”, praising Wally Tittleton and Satherley in particular. Richmond (1939) The 1939 season saw Satherley playing for Richmond once more but perhaps surprisingly he was not selected for the aborted New Zealand tour of England. In round 1 of the championship Satherley was injured in Richmond's 15–14 win over City and had to go off. Jack McLeod replaced him at hooker and played well. He was only named intermittently over the following 2 months and may have missed some matches. On June 10 Richmond beat City 8–0 in round 10 with the Herald writing that “Satherley won the ball from the scrum frequently and his hooking was cleaner that that of Airey, a former Canterbury representative”. In a 26–14 win over Marist on June 17 he set up Dave Solomon's try after he kicked through for Solomon to score. Satherley was then named in the reserves for the North Island v South Island and Possibles v Probables set of games at Carlaw Parkon July 8. The hooker chosen for the North Island was J. Brooks of Waikato while Maurice Quirke and Bert Leatherbarrow both from Auckland were chosen to hook in the other match. Following the matches a further New Zealand trial was arranged for July 11 between the Possibles and Probables with Satherley named at hooker in the Probables side, playing opposite J. Brooks. The Auckland Star said “Brooks, of South Auckland [Waikato], and Satherley, of Richmond, will be matched as hookers, and both will have good support. The Probables side won 27-18 with it said that Brooks and Satherley “were exceptionally well matched as hookers, and both got a fair share of the ball for their respective teams”. Satherley was involved in their first try after he and John Clark of Canterbury “raced away and from a scramble George Mitchell scored”. He then returned to his Richmond side to finish the season. On July 22 in a 23–14 loss to Manukau he “received a nasty face injury and was treated at hospital”. It appears he was ok as he was named in the side to play the following week against Papakura. On August 19 the Richmond side travelled to Huntly to play South Auckland (Waikato) and won 21–16. It was said that “good hooking by J. Satherley had much to do with the defeat of” the local side. It is unclear if he played in any of Richmond's remaining games and he was left off the team list completely for their final games against Manukau on September 16 and City on September 30. Retirement and return (1942) It appears that late in 1939 Satherley had decided to retire from the game. He did not play at all in 1940 aside from a rugby league veterans game between Auckland Veterans and South Auckland Veterans at Carlaw Park on October 19. The match was for the Les Lees Challenge Cup with both sides being entertained after the match by the New Zealand Rugby League Old Boys Club at a dinner at Hotel Auckland. The Auckland side was particularly strong with 10 of the 13 starting players former New Zealand representatives. The Auckland side won 31–18 with Satherley scoring one of their seven tries, most of which were converted by Craddock Dufty. Satherley did not play at all in 1941. Then in 1942 Satherley came out of retirement to rejoin the Richmond side once more. With the war on many senior sides were struggling for playing numbers and many players came out of retirement to play for their former clubs. There was much less reporting of games due to the war and so it is unclear exactly how many games Satherley played though it was most likely around 18, and he scored 6 tries which was the most in his club career in a single season. It was reported on April 20 that he would be available for their opening match in the New Zealand Herald. Despite not having played a serious competition match for around years he scored three tries in a 22–10 win over the combined Marist-North Shore side. In reality it was against Marist as the North Shore club had refused to contribute any players to the forced merger team until a change of mind in round 7. The New Zealand Herald said that “J. Satherley, the Richmond hooker, was in good form and scored three tries”. A week later he scored again in their 27–4 win against Ponsonby. Then in round 5 on June 6 he scored another try and kicked the only goal of his career which was a penalty in their 23–17 loss. Both teams scored 5 tries but Richmond had missed all of their conversion attempts. He had only been mentioned as attempting a goal kick one other time in his career though he had been photographed practising his goal kicking while on the 1938 tour of Australia. Team lists were not published at all in the Auckland newspapers and the match reports were extremely brief, with Satherley not mentioned at all until September 12 when he scored a try in Richmond's 7–6 win in the Roope Rooster semi final against Ponsonby. Retirement and return once more (1945) Satherley once more retired from the game, not playing at all in the 1943 and 1944 seasons. He did however make a full comeback in 1945 for Richmond. He played 20 games scoring 5 tries. He played in their opening games against Point Chevalier and North Shore which they both won. Satherley played at prop for their April 28 win over Newton. Richmond recorded a record score with their 70–0 win with Satherley scoring twice. At hooker was Ernie Pinches who later became deputy mayor and then acting mayor in 1987/88. Richmond then lost to Mount Albert on May 5 by 11 points to 7. With Richmond trailing 8-3 early in the second half Satherley “broke away and raced 30 yards before passing to [Aubrey] Thompson, who was soundly tackled”. The Auckland Star wrote “J. Satherley, an experienced hooker, was also prominent in the loose”. Satherley scored in a 25–7 win against Ponsonby on June 2. On August 11 in an 11–7 win over Manukau Satherley scored another try however the win was overshadowed by foul play against Satherley by Joseph Zimmerman. Following the match an inquiry was held by the Auckland Rugby League “in connection with an incident near the end of the game when J. Satherley, one of the Richmond players was injured, and lay on the ground for some time receiving attention. At the time of the incident a set scrum was being formed, and Satherley was seen to reel and fall”. It was also reported that the injury was the result of “what appeared to be a wilful head butt by a Manukau forward”. His try earlier had come as a result of “a passing bout” and he also “did good work in the loose”. Zimmerman was later found guilty by the Auckland Rugby League control board and suspended for the remainder of the season. On September 1 in a championship final match against Ponsonby, which was later essentially downgraded to a semi final fixture, Richmond beat Ponsonby 7–3. At one stage he “stormed the Ponsonby goal line” with Richmond going close to adding to their 7–0 lead in rainy conditions. Richmond then lost what was then set up as the Fox Memorial championship decided to Otahuhu Rovers on October 13 by 11 points to 5. The final match of Satherley's career came on September 29 in the Roope Rooster final loss to North Shore by 22 points to 12. Satherley scored a try in his last game. Personal life Jack Satherley worked as a lineman and in 1935 was living with Alma (Wilma) Florence Purdy at 235 Ponsonby Road, Ponsonby, in central Auckland. Satherley and Purdy were married on October 16, 1937. Alma's father passed away on November 12, 1937, with a memorial notice published by Alma and Jack. They had four children, Richard Anthony Satherley (1939-?), and Sylvia Fay Iwan Satherley (1937-?), Ella Louise Satherley (1940–40), and another daughter born on October 12, 1943, while they were living at 4 Dublin Street in Ponsonby. Tragedy struck the family on February 25, 1940, when their daughter Ella Louise died aged 3 days while the family was living at 4 Dublin Street in Ponsonby. Then on August 8, 1943, they had another daughter. In 1941 he was groomsman at a relatives wedding in Palmerston North. According to military records in 1942 Satherley was living at 4 Dublin Street in Ponsonby and working for New Zealand Rail. On August 1, 1944, Jack's father Charles passed away at the age of 79. He had been living with Jack at the time. In 1947 Jack's brother Cliff Satherley passed away in Wellington on January 7. The Evening Post in Wellington reported that “Clifford Allen Martin Satherley, aged 39” had been missing since 7 am yesterday. He was “dressed only in a pair of short woollen underpants” and had been a patient of the Wellington Public Hospital. Police search parties had been trying to find him for some time and he was believed to have last been seen at 7:10am after leaving the hospital. The police had also stated that “they had received a further report that a man answering the description of Satherley had been seen on Mount Victoria about 5.15pm. His body was then found three days after his disappearance on Lyall Bay Beach “shortly before noon”. By 1954 Jack and Alma were living at 38 Dedwood Terrace with Jack working as a foreman. By 1963 Jack was living at the same address on Dedwood Street though possibly alone after the death of his wife Alma on January 1, 1968, aged 54. Jack was living at the same address in 1969 according to electoral records and living with Maureen P. Satherley who was a “spinster”, while Jack was working as a “Civil Servant”. By 1978 they were still living together at the same address with Jack working as a storeman and Maureen a secretary. Jack died on June 29, 1994, aged 83. He was cremated with his ashes buried at Waikumete Cemetery in Glen Eden, Auckland.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Penghu%20air%20raids
Penghu air raids
The Penghu air raids were a series of air raids over the Japanese controlled Penghu Islands (Hōko Prefecture) by Allied bombers from October 12, 1944, to August 14, 1945. It begun in correspondence with the Formosa Air Battle but continued long after the latter’s conclusion. It resulted in mass destruction of infrastructure and military hardware on the islands, most notably at Magong due to the presence of major Japanese naval bases in the city. Background to air raids In 1901, in view of the strategic position of Penghu Island in the Taiwan Strait, the Japanese government announced on July 2 that Penghu was to be a "fortress". The "Penghu Fortress Command" was established thereafter. On July 7, 1937, the Marco Polo Bridge Incident broke out and beginning the Second Sino-Japanese War, and on August 15, all of Japanese-controlled Taiwan entered into a war economy. In June 1939, the Japanese army used Penghu as an advance base to attack Mainland China from Shantou, Guangdong. Since 1943, the situation in the Pacific War has become increasingly severe. In view of the barren land and large population in Penghu, it became difficult for the Japanese to supply grain by sea, and there was a real risk of food shortage. Residents were evacuated to Formosa and special liaison officers were stationed in Budai, Tainan Prefecture, and Takao Prefecture. In the early days, Japan chose Magong as the site for the construction of a major naval headquarters, and forced the residents to relocate to other places. In 1901, the Magong Port Department was formally established. In 1929, Japan once again expropriated the land around Daian Mountain on the opposite bank for the construction of fuel tanks. In 1941, the Magong Yao Port Department was upgraded to the Magong Garrison Office. In 1943, the command center of the Garrison Office was moved to Kaohsiung Zuoying. In addition to auxiliary support facilities such as radio stations, port warehouses, and oil tanks, the hinterland of the base also became the main strategic target for the Allied fighters to attack Penghu. After the Magong air raid on March 14, 1945, the offices in various parts of Penghu were dispersed. Except for a few civil servants who stayed behind in Magong, most of the residents of Magong Street went to the suburbs. At that time, Magong Street was full of ruins and few people. It was not until the end of World War II that it gradually restored its original appearance. Air raids On October 12, 1944, the Formosa Air Battle broke out. From October 12 to 14, the U.S. Navy’s Fast Carrier Task Force sent various carrier-based aircraft to bomb Formosa and Penghu. The first air raid in Penghu happened during this period, and as early as October 8, four days before the first air strike, Magong Street had made preparations in advance to evacuate some school children and Japanese family members in order to prevent harm. The mission to attack Penghu on October 12, 1944, was carried out by the and the of the Fast Carrier Task Force; aircraft involved in the battle, including Grumman F6F Hellcats, Curtiss SB2C Helldivers and Grumman TBF Avengers, from dawn to dusk respectively weapons such as machine guns, rockets, bombs, and air-dropped torpedoes, launched a total of four waves of offensives against Penghu Cetian Island Naval Base, Zhumushuhui Airfield and surrounding facilities. At the beginning of January 1945, in order to launch the invasion of Lingayen Gulf, the Fast Carrier Task Force once again attacked various places in Formosa and Penghu. From mid-January of the same year, the Fifth Air Force of the U.S. Army Air Force took over the air strikes on Formosa and Penghu, in cooperation with the armed reconnaissance and patrol missions carried out by land-based patrol aircraft of the U.S. Navy. In August 1945, it was replaced by the Thirteenth Air Force. From 1944 to 1945, the total military and civilian population of the Penghu Office was about 79,000. Because Penghu had many military sites deemed important, it became a major target of bombing by the Allied Forces. Among them, the Fifth Air Force dropped a total of 1,127 tons of bombs on the Penghu Islands in the last 200 days of the war. References Pacific Ocean theatre of World War II

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Killing%20baby%20Hitler
Killing baby Hitler
Killing baby Hitler is a thought experiment in ethics and theoretical physics which poses the question of using time travel to assassinate an infant Adolf Hitler. It presents an ethical dilemma in both the action and its consequences, as well as a temporal paradox in the logical consistency of time. Killing baby Hitler first became a literary trope of science fiction during World War II and has since been used in order to explore these ethical and metaphysical debates. Ethical debates on the problem of killing baby Hitler can demonstrate the outlook of various moral philosophies: utilitarianism holds that killing baby Hitler is justified, as the potential benefits outweigh the potential costs; deontology holds that killing baby Hitler is unjustified, as infanticide is always wrong; and consequentialism may question what the consequences of killing baby Hitler might be, holding that the unforeseen future consequences of such an act make it difficult to judge its morality. It is also used to raise the question of nature versus nurture, whether changing the society that baby Hitler grew up in might be preferable to killing baby Hitler. Metaphysical debates about the possibility of killing baby Hitler have been used to discuss different philosophies of time: the B-theory of time considers killing baby Hitler to be impossible due to its inherent temporal paradox, while theories of multiple time dimensions leave room for the past to be changed by killing baby Hitler and the many-worlds interpretation argues that killing baby Hitler would create a parallel universe. Public debate around the question of killing baby Hitler reached its height in late 2015, after The New York Times published a poll asking its readers the question. Advocates of killing baby Hitler included Florida governor Jeb Bush and film actor Tom Hanks, while comedian Stephen Colbert and conservative pundit Ben Shapiro were counted among the opponents of the policy. Ethical thought experiment Consequentialist argument According to consequentialism, the morality of any given action is judged solely by its consequences. Consequentialist ethics raises the dichotomy of immediate foreseeable consequences versus unforeseeable potential consequences; for example, in the story of Johann Kühberger saving a young Hitler from drowning, the immediate positive consequences of saving a person's life was the motivating factor, but it also resulted in the eventual negative consequences of Hitler's rise to power. In a 2000 essay on consequentialism, British philosopher James Lenman posited a German bandit in 100 BCE sparing the life of one of Hitler's distant ancestors. According to consequentialism, although the bandit sparing her life led to the unforeseeable future crimes of Hitler, he was not wrong to do so, as killing her could have led to even worse unforeseeable consequences. Killing baby Hitler also raises the possibility of unforeseen consequences, including the commonly-cited possibility that someone even worse than Hitler could rise to power in his place. As the consequences of killing baby Hitler aren't known, the problem lacks a clear solution. Deontological argument According to deontology, the morality of an action is determined by certain ethical values, rather than by circumstances. Even in the case that it would benefit the common good, deontology opposes killing out of the belief that all human beings have an "inalienable value". Deontological ethics thus argues against killing baby Hitler, as it considers killing babies to always be wrong, irrespective of any potential consequences. Utilitarian argument Utilitarianism is a moral philosophy that argues for the maximisation of happiness and the minimisation of suffering. According to utilitarian ethics, killing baby Hitler is justified, as it considers the potential benefits to be greater than the moral cost. As Hitler was responsible for the suffering of millions of people, utilitarianism posits that killing one baby Hitler is justifiable in order to save millions of innocent lives. In this way, the question of killing baby Hitler resembles the trolley problem, which utilitarianism responds to similarly. Arguments against the utilitarian response conclude that focusing on killing baby Hitler, without any guarantee of preventing future suffering, means that the only guaranteed outcome is that the time traveller would have committed the moral evil of infanticide. American philosopher Janet Stemwedel therefore considers killing baby Hitler to be an unreliable means for maximising happiness. Stemwedel posits that applying utilitarian ethics to time travel favours causation over human agency, disregarding the capacity for humans to choose different paths and change. Nature versus nurture To Canadian psychologist Julia Shaw, the answer one gives to the baby Hitler question is telling of their view on nature versus nurture: people who would kill baby Hitler may have a deterministic view of individual predisposition towards evil, while people that wouldn't kill baby Hitler may place higher value on environmental factors of upbringing and social conditions. In a psychoanalysis of Hitler's infancy, Austrian psychiatrist Frederick Redlich found that he was "a fairly normal child" and showed few signs of the genocidal intent or dictatorial tendencies that would characterise his adulthood. As there is no scientific explanation for Hitler's later actions based on his genetics, greater attention is often paid to the environment that Hitler grew up in. In a refutation of the great man theory, it can be argued that killing baby Hitler would not eliminate this cultural environment, which would still result in other people growing up to pursue far-right politics and genocidal policies. From this perspective, Janet Stemwedel argues that using time travel to change social conditions would be preferable to infanticide, as it would recognise that the responsibility for Hitler's actions lie not just with him, but also in the collective responsibility of those that raised, followed and elected him. Limitations The moral justification for killing baby Hitler usually rests on the question of whether a child can be held responsible for their future actions, before they had yet committed any crimes against humanity. A follow-up question can then be posed regarding where the line ends for killing babies that would commit crimes against humanity. The question of where the line ends was brought up by American activist Shaun King, who argued that the logic for killing baby Hitler could just as easily be applied to baby Christopher Columbus, baby slave-owners or baby Dylann Roof. Australian moral philosopher Matthew Beard likewise brought up baby Pol Pot and baby Joseph Stalin, arguing that a clear set of ethical principles would be needed to determine which historical babies deserve to be killed. In theoretical physics The question of killing baby Hitler contains a version of the grandfather paradox, also known as the "Hitler's Murder Paradox". According to the B-theory of time, if someone travelled back in time with the intention of killing baby Hitler, then their reason for travelling back in time would be eliminated. It is often concluded that as the past has already happened, alteration of the past is a logical impossibility. As Hitler killed himself in 1945, it can also be inferred that no time traveler has killed baby Hitler. In contrast to the B-theory, models that adopt the A-theory of time avoid logical contradictions in the killing of baby Hitler by considering time to be two-dimensional, where the first dimension is standard time (tx) and the second dimension is known as hyper-time (Htx). Theories that leave room for the past to be changed include hyper-eternalism, two-dimensional presentism and hyper-presentism, which each demonstrate the possibility of killing baby Hitler in two-dimensional time. In these temporal models, both the past and the future are held to be mutable; in changing the past by killing baby Hitler, the time traveller also changes the future. Although it can also be debated whether such temporal models genuinely change the past, or if killing baby Hitler simply affects the past by causing a variation in hyper-time. According to the many-worlds interpretation of quantum mechanics, killing baby Hitler would create a parallel universe without Hitler in it, but the original universe would continue existing and thus the suffering he caused in that timeline would not be alleviated by the time traveling assassin. From this perspective, astrophysicist Brian Koberlein concluded that killing baby Hitler would be "inconsequential at best, and could be downright harmful", recommending that time travelers avoid such an activity and instead visit the 1980s. Literary trope Killing baby Hitler is a common literary trope of contemporary science fiction, usually depicting a time traveler going back to the 1890s in order to assassinate an infant Hitler before he could start World War II and the Holocaust. Stories of this kind date as far back as World War II itself, with publications in Weird Tales (1941) and Astounding Science Fiction (1942) including the trope. Stories in the sub-genre detail a variety of different consequences for killing baby Hitler. In his 1995 short story "Dieu porte-t-il des lunettes noires?", Maurice G. Dantec presents an ethical dilemma in travelling through time to kill baby Hitler. In his 1996 novel Making History, Stephen Fry depicts a history student travelling back in time and rendering Alois Hitler infertile. But in the place of Adolf Hitler, a different and more effective Nazi dictator takes power, defeats the Soviet Union with nuclear weapons, conquers Europe and exterminates the Jewish people. In Selden Edwards' 2008 novel The Little Book, the protagonists find themselves back in the 1890s in Vienna and decide to assassinate a young Hitler, but find themselves unable to kill an "innocent boy", despite knowing what he would grow up to become. In a 2015 short story, American humourist Alexandra Petri depicted Hitler being abducted and raised well by a kindly time traveler. In a post-credits scene of the 2018 film Deadpool 2, the titular character goes back in time to kill baby Hitler, but the outcome isn't shown. In the extended cut, the film shows Deadpool realising he can't do it and changing baby Hitler's diaper. In order to avoid the "Hitler-murder paradox", some science fiction stories follow the Novikov self-consistency principle, which holds that if time travel is possible, then changing the past cannot meaningfully alter the future. In the 1977 novella The Primal Solution, an elderly Holocaust survivor travels through time and attempts to kill a young Hitler, but he survives and is set down the path of antisemitism by the experience. In a 2002 episode of The Twilight Zone, "Cradle of Darkness", a woman travels through time and kills baby Hitler, but another baby is adopted by Hitler's mother and grows up to do all the same things as Hitler. An earlier episode of The Twilight Zone, "No Time Like the Past" (1963), depicts a time traveler failing to assassinate Hitler, in keeping with the self-consistency principle. In Juliusz Machulski's 2013 film AmbaSSada, the protagonists get transported back in time and meet Hitler due to a coincidence, only spontaenously deciding to kill him. As they hadn't travelled in time with the intention of killing Hitler, the "Hitler's Murder Paradox" is avoided and history is consequently altered. Public debate In conversations about time travel, it is common to raise the subject of changing the past and specifically the question of killing baby Hitler, in what is also known as "Godwin's law of time travel". Public debate on the baby Hitler question was brought to prominence in October 2015, when a poll by The New York Times asked its readers if they would kill baby Hitler. The poll received a plurality of affirmative responses: 42% said they would kill baby Hitler, 30% said they wouldn't and 28% were undecided. The poll caused the hashtag #babyhitler to begin trending on Twitter, as the social media platform's users debated the subject. During the campaign for the 2016 Republican Party presidential primaries, when the question of killing baby Hitler was posed by journalists of HuffPost to Florida governor Jeb Bush, he responded "Hell Yeah, I Would!". While acknowledging the potential unknown consequences of such an action, he affirmed that he would still do it, saying "You gotta step up, man." American engineer Paul J. Nahin commented that Bush had responded in this way in order to demonstrate "the toughness of his character", while pointing out that the Republican candidate also opposed abortion. The issue of killing baby Hitler was also raised during that year's Democratic Party presidential primaries, with New Hampshire primary candidate Vermin Supreme making it one of the four planks of his political platform. American actor Tom Hanks responded to the political debate by declaring that he would vote for a presidential candidate that supported killing baby Hitler. When the question was posed to Microsoft's chatbot Tay, it likewise replied that "of course" it would kill baby Hitler. In contrast, American comedian Stephen Colbert responded to the question by saying that he wouldn't kill baby Hitler and would instead seek to raise him in a loving home. In a 2018 interview with The Washington Post, American actor John C. Reilly responded similarly, calling for empathy with baby Hitler as an apolitical alternative. At the March for Life in 2019, American conservative pundit Ben Shapiro argued against killing baby Hitler from an anti-abortion position, stating that "Baby Hitler was a baby." His comments drew criticism and mockery from liberal commentators. In response to his position on killing baby Hitler, three companies pulled their advertisements from Shapiro's podcast.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Histiophryninae
Histiophryninae
Histiophryninae is a subfamily of marine ray-finned fishes belonging to the family Antennariidae, the frogfishes. The species in this family are found in the Indian and Western Pacific Oceans. Taxonomy Histiophryninae was first proposed as a subfamily by Theodore a Wells Pietsch III and Rachel J. Arnold in 2012. The 5th edition of Fishes of the World does not recognise this subfamily within the Antennariidae. Other authorities classify this grouping as a full family, the Histiophrynidae. The Antennariidae is classified within the suborder Antennarioidei within the order Lophiiformes, the anglerfishes. As part of the family Antennariidae, this taxon is regarded, with the sister taxon to the Antennariidae, the Tetrabrachiidae as the most derived clade within the suborder Antennarioidei. Etymology Histiophryninae, has its name derived from Histiophryne, its type genus. this combines histio, meaaning "sail", an allusion the author of the name, Theodore Gill, did not explain but it may refer to the long soft-rayed dorsal fin which is connected to the caudal fin. The secon part is phryne, which means "toad", a suffix commonly used in the names of anglerfish genera, dating back to Aristotle and Cicero, who called anglerfishes "fishing frogs" or sea frogs". Genera Histiophryninae contains the following genera: Characteristics Histiophryinae are distinguished from the Antennarinae by the loss of the mesopterygoid and epural. However, the major difference is in the ovaries and the reproductive strategies shown by these fishes. The Histiophryinae have simple oval shaped ovaries while those of Antennariinae have ovaries which are shaped like a double scroll. Histiophryins do not undergo metamorphosis and the eggs and young are given some amount of parental care whereas Anntenariids are broadcast spawners. Generally, Histiophryin frogfishes are small fishes, the largest species is Glauert's anglerfish (Allenchthys glauerti) with a maximum published total length of while the smallest species is Hutchins' anglerfish (Lophiocharon hutchinsi) with a maximum published standard length of . Distribution Histiophryinae frogfishes are endemic to the seas around Australia. References Antennariidae Ray-finned fish subfamilies

Palazzo Ravera
Palazzo Ravera is a historic Art Nouveau building located in Ivrea, Italy. History The building was commissioned by Stefano Ravera, an entrepreneur from a well-known family of builders from the local Canavese area. This came after his frequent visits to Switzerland, where he was impressed by the grand nineteenth-century buildings of Geneva and Zurich. He entrusted the project to Ivrea engineer Romolo Peona; this also held the position of City Councillor for Public Works. The name of the building is also inseparably linked to that of the hotel that operated in its rooms until its closing in 1989, the Hotel Dora. The hotel was frequented by the high society of Ivrea and the Olivetti managerial class. In 1957, painter Ottone Rosai was found dead from natural causes in a room on the first floor of the hotel. Today, the building houses a bank, offices, and commercial activities. Description The building is located on Corso Costantino Nigra, opposite Villa Luisa. The main feature of the building, which features an Art Nouveau style, is represented by the northern facade, which is cylindrical and overhangs the underlying Dora Baltea river, just downstream from the Ponte Nuovo.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sama%27%20al-Mulk%20Husayn
Sama' al-Mulk Husayn
Sharaf al-Ma'ali Sama' al-Mulk al-Husayn ibn al-Afdal was a son of the Fatimid vizier and quasi-sultan, al-Afdal Shahanshah. He commanded the Fatimid army in the Second (1102) and Third (1105) Battles of Ramla against the Crusaders of the Kingdom of Jerusalem, although some confusion exists since different titles are given by the chronicles for each: Sharaf al-Ma'ali for 1102, and Sama' al-Mulk for 1105, leading to the mistaken assumption by some medieval and modern historians that different sons of al-Afdal were involved in each. In 1115, the increasingly ill and feeble al-Afdal appointed him as his deputy and heir-presumptive. However, after a failed assassination attempt in 1118, al-Afdal suspected his sons of being responsible for it, and withdrew all privileges, income, and personnel assigned to his sons, thus ending the prospect of a dynastic succession. After al-Afdal's assassination in December 1121, his adult sons were confined in the caliphal palace to prevent them from rallying their followers and seize power; instead, Caliph al-Amir, with the assistance of al-Afdal's chief of staff, and now successor as vizier, al-Ma'mun al-Bata'ihi, took control of the government.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bahmani%E2%80%93Vijayanagar%20War%20%281443%29
Bahmani–Vijayanagar War (1443)
The Bahmani–Vijayanagar War of 1443 marked as the last war between the Bahmani Sultanate of Deccan India and the Vijayanagara empire of South India. It commenced between the Bahmanis under Alauddin Ahmad Shah and the Vijayanagar under Deva Raya II, taking place in present-day Mudgal, Karnataka. During the course of two months, three battles unfolded, with the Vijayanagara forces initially securing victory, followed by two subsequent wins by the Bahmanis. These defeats compelled the Vijayanagara ruler to seek peace, agreeing to pay tribute to the Bahmanis. Following the Siege of Vijayanagara by Bahmani ruler Ahmad Shah I Wali in 1423, there were no military conflicts between the Bahmanis and the Vijayanagara empire until the ascension of his son, Alauddin Ahmad Shah. Upon assuming power, Alauddin dispatched his brother, Muhammad Khan, to demand tribute from the Vijayanagara ruler, Deva Raya II, which had been withheld. Muhammad Khan successfully defeated the Vijayanagara forces, compelling Deva Raya to pay tribute. This event prompted Deva Raya to incorporate Muslim forces into his army to enhance its training. Returning from the campaign, Muhammad Khan received counsel from certain officers suggesting that he possessed equal rights to the Bahmani Sultanate as his brother Alauddin, as promised by their father, Ahmad Shah. Seeking support from various chiefs, including the Vijayanagara emperor, Muhammad Khan captured several locations, prompting Alauddin to mobilize against him. Despite his defeat, Muhammad Khan was pardoned by Alauddin and granted the jagir of Rajachal. After surviving an assassination attempt orchestrated by his brother in Vijayanagara, Deva Raya II retaliated by executing all his opponents. Seizing this moment of vulnerability, Bahmani Sultan Alauddin saw an opportunity to invade Vijayanagara and exact tribute, which Deva Raya II had promised but failed to pay. In response, Vijayanagara troops launched attacks on Bahmani territories, plundering their positions. Alauddin mobilized his forces against Deva Raya, deploying his general Malik Tujjar against Deva Raya's sons. The Bahmanis successfully recaptured territories, compelling Vijayanagara troops to retreat from the occupied regions. The decisive battles took place at Mudgal, where Bahmani forces initially faced setbacks but ultimately emerged victorious. Deva Raya agreed to pay tribute under the condition that Alauddin would not cross the Tungabhadra River again. This conflict marked the final war between the Bahmanis and Vijayanagara. Background Following the severe blow dealt by the Bahmanis during the Siege of Vijayanagara in 1423, Vira Vijaya passed away, and was succeeded by his brother Deva Raya II. The ascension of Devaraya II heralded the peak of prosperity for Vijayanagara under the first dynasty. The repeated defeats suffered at the hands of the Bahmanis prompted Deva Raya II to overhaul his military strategy. He received counsel suggesting that the success of the Bahmanis stemmed from the superiority of their cavalry and their expertise in archery. Consequently, he enlisted Muslims into his service, granted them jagirs (land grants), and even constructed a mosque at Vijayanagar for their worship. After his victory against Vijayanagara in 1423, Ahmad Shah I Wali proceeded to subjugate the Velama chiefs of Telangana, who had aided Vijayanagara in their war against the Bahmanis. He defeated and killed Anapota II, capturing the entire Telangana region in the process. Following this campaign, Ahmad Shah I focused more on the northern part of his realm. Throughout the remainder of his reign, he engaged in wars with the rulers of Mahur, Malwa, Konkan, and Gujarat, ensuring Vijayanagara's immunity from northern attacks for about a decade. However, the heirs of the late Velama king managed to reclaim various districts of Telangana. But their success was short-lived, as Ahmad Shah I returned to Telangana around 1433 and reduced them to vassalage. Similar to Ahmad Shah I, Deva Raya also sought to avenge the support of kingdoms that had allied with his enemies in the past. Deva Raya could not overlook the alliance between Pedakomati Vema of Kondavidu and Firuz Shah Bahmani. Capitalizing on the weakness of Vema's incompetent successors, Deva Raya conquered the kingdom and incorporated it into his empire. An epigraph at Kondavidu, dated 1432, documents his grant to a Brahman from the region. Ahmad Shah passed away in 1436, and he was succeeded by his son Alauddin II on July 14th, 1436, who assumed the title of Ahmad upon his accession. He renewed war with Vijayanagara upon his succession due to the Vijayanagara king's failure to pay tribute. Deva Raya II's attitude towards Muslim soldiers In the years leading up to 1440, Vijayanagara launched offensive attacks against the Bahmani kingdom but suffered defeat. Upon investigating the causes of this defeat, it was concluded that the superiority of the Muslim forces lay in their Turkish mounted archers. In response, Devaraya took immediate steps to address this weakness by recruiting a special force of 2000 Muslim archers. He housed them in a designated quarter of the city where they had a mosque and a separate slaughterhouse. Devaraya showed them respect by placing a copy of the Quran in front of his throne, so that obeisance made before the monarch was offered to the Quran. He widely recruited Muslims and utilized them both within the ranks and as trainers for his Hindu troops. This force was not the first Muslim contingent to serve in the Vijayanagara armies. Historical records suggest that during the battle at Trichinopoly, the last Hoysala ruler commanded a contingent of 20,000 Muslims. Additionally, inscriptions indicate that Devaraya I, a predecessor of Devaraya II, also employed a force of Muslim cavalry. Devaraya II utilized these Muslim troops to train other archers in cavalry tactics. As a result, within the next few years, he had amassed a body of 60,000 archers ready to take the field. Altogether, Deva Raya's army comprised 10,000 mounted foreign archers, 60,000 Hindu horsemen proficient in archery, and 300,000 adequately trained infantry soldiers. Record of Nicolo Conti about Bahmanis The fifteenth-century Italian traveler Nicolo Conti provides a description of Indian life during the rule of Alauddin Ahmad Shah, the Bahmani ruler at the time. He observed Indian ships, noting their distinctiveness, especially those anchored in the ports of the Deccan. Conti remarked that these ships were notably larger than those constructed in the shipyards of Italy, each equipped with five sails and as many masts. The lower part of these vessels was constructed with triple planks to withstand the force of the storms prevalent in monsoon climates. Conti mentioned that some of these ships were designed in a way that if one part were damaged by the tempest, the remaining portion could safely complete the voyage to port. Regarding the arts of war, Conti mentions that the army utilized javelins, swords, arm-pieces, round shields, bows, and arrows. In particular, he notes that the inhabitants of Central India also employed ballistae, bombarding machines, and siege pieces. Conti finds it peculiar that pestilence was unknown among the people, and they were not susceptible to the diseases that afflicted populations in his own country. Record of Abd al-Razzaq about Vijayanagara Shortly after the war, Abd-ur-Razzaq, the ambassador of Shah Rukh from Samarqand, who had spent some time in Calicut, visited Vijayanagara and stayed in the capital for a few months. According to his account, by 1442, the fortifications, temples, palaces, and public buildings of Vijayanagara had been completed. The city occupied an area of approximately sixty-four square miles, with seven enclosures, the accepted number of circuits for a first-class city. The three outermost enclosures consisted of fields designated for cultivation, along with the huts of those working on the land. The four inner enclosures were occupied by houses, with the innermost enclosure containing the palace and its precincts. Several channels had been directed into the city from the Tungabhadra River; one of them is still known as the Räya channel. These channels served the dual purpose of cultivation and supplying water to the city. Despite the potential for exaggeration in Abd-ur-Razzaq's account, Vijayanagara under Devaraya II must have been a splendid city, boasting exceptional fortifications. Prelude In 1435, immediately following the accession of Alauddin II, he launched a war against Vijayanagara. The King of Vijayanagara had withheld payment of tribute to the Bahmanis, which had been in arrears for five years. Consequently, Alauddin sent his brother Muhammad Khan and his Amirul Umara Imadul Mulk to demand tribute by force. Additionally, another reason for the conflict was that Deva Raya II, the king of Vijayanagara, had wrongfully seized Anegundi, a Bahmani fort. As the Bahmani army advanced, they ravaged the Vijayanagara countryside and caused significant devastation. With no other option left, Deva Raya was compelled to sue for peace. Consequently, the Sultan granted peace terms, which included the exchange of twenty elephants, a substantial sum of money, and two hundred females skilled in music and dancing. Additionally, valuable presents were given to Prince Muhammad Khan as part of the peace agreement. Rebellion of Muhammad Khan While returning home from Vijayanagara, Muhammad Khan halted for a few days at Mudgal. During his stay, he was approached by individuals who were hostile to the interests of his own dynasty. Discontented officers from his own army informed him that it was his late father's wish for him to rule the country jointly with his brother. They claimed that his brother had marginalized him to a subordinate role. They suggested that it was only appropriate for him to demand a partition of the kingdom and receive his rightful share. Muhammad Khan was swayed by these proposals and, influenced by them, he executed Imadul-Mulk and sought assistance from Deva Raya of Vijayanagara. Deva Raya, likely the instigator of the conspiracy himself, readily provided Muhammad Khan with the assistance he sought. In doing so, he attempted to achieve through deceit what he had failed to achieve on the battlefield. The prince promptly seized several forts, including Mudgal, Raichur, Sholapur, and Naldrug, and even crowned himself at a location along the banks of the Krishna River. Alauddin had to personally move to the south to confront his brother. Despite Muhammad's defeat, he was pardoned and granted the jagir of Rajachal. Deva Raya of Vijayanagara was reeling from the defeat inflicted upon him by Prince Muhammad and had also been unsuccessful in his attempts to manipulate the prince against his brother. Around 1442, he started to contemplate that perhaps his weakness on the battlefield had contributed to these setbacks, prompting him to embark on reforms for his fighting forces. The nature and implementation of these reforms are an intriguing episode. These were the events that prompted him to recruit Muslim soldiers in his army. Assassination attempt on Deva Raya Sometime after the aforementioned events, a significant incident occurred in Vijayanagara. A brother of the king, driven by jealousy and perhaps harboring ambitions for the kingship, devised a plot to assassinate him. Under the guise of hosting guests for the inauguration of his new house, he invited key state officials who were loyal to the king. As each guest arrived, they were discreetly dispatched by specially appointed assassins. Subsequently, the brother hurried to the palace and confronted the king, unleashing multiple violent blows upon him with a dagger. Believing Deva Raya to be dead, the assailant then proceeded to the palace portico and declared himself as the new king before the gathered crowd. The king, though severely wounded, was not dead and soon arrived at the scene. Upon presenting himself to his people, they apprehended the assassin and executed him. Following this, Deva Raya exacted vengeance on all those who had supported the murderer in this treacherous conspiracy. He ordered their capture and subjected them, along with their families, to gruesome tortures before putting them to death. Viewing the situation as an opportunity, Alauddin decided to invade Vijayanagara as the promised seven lakhs of Tankas (Vijayanagara currency) were not paid by Deva Raya. Deva Raya's refusal to pay the tribute led to the renewal of war between the two parties. The War Deva Raya resolved to personally take the field and aimed to reclaim the Raichur Doab, which had been lost in the previous war. He dispatched his two sons, with one heading to Raichur and the other to Bankapur, while he himself crossed the Tungabhadra River and seized Mudgal. Subsequently, he established his camp near the banks of the Krishna River and dispatched troops to raid Bahmani territories. The Vijayanagara troops conducted successful plundering raids, employing fire and sword to devastate everything in their path as far as Sagar and Bijapur. The Bahmani Sultan grew increasingly concerned and personally led his forces southward. Alauddin dispatched Khalaf Hasan Maliku't-Tujjar with the army of Daulatabad against the son of Deva Raya. The Bahmani forces consisted of 50,000 horsemen, and 60,000 Infantry. Additionally, he sent Khan-i Zaman Sarlashkar of Bijapur and Khan-i Zaman Sarlashkar of Berar against Deva Raya himself. Khalaf Khan successfully lifted the siege of Raichur against the son of Deva Raya II, during which the latter sustained injuries. Subsequently, the wounded Vijayanagara prince retreated from the battlefield. With the Bahmani forces advancing, Deva Raya II withdrew to Mudgal, where his troops were stationed. Simultaneously, the second son of Deva Raya faced defeat at Bankapur and was forced to retreat as well. The two primary forces, led by Deva Raya II and Alauddin, clashed at Mudgal, engaging in a fierce battle. Initially, the Vijayanagara forces gained the upper hand, delivering a severe blow to the Bahmani forces. However, as the battle dragged on for two months, the Bahmani forces ultimately emerged victorious. The eldest son of Deva Raya, who had been wounded, was killed in the battle. Deva Raya managed to capture two officers of Alauddin, namely Fakhrul Mulk Dehlavi and his brother, before retreating to the safety of the Mudgal fort. Upon learning of this, Alauddin sent a message to Deva Raya warning that if the two high-ranking officers were harmed, he would not hesitate to exact retribution by killing two lakh of his men when the time came. Faced with this dire threat, Deva Raya had no choice but to seek peace. Aftermath Deva Raya responded to Alauddin by expressing his willingness to settle all outstanding tribute payments and cease hostilities if the Sultan agreed not to cross the frontier in the future. Alauddin accepted these terms, and a treaty was promptly signed. Fakhru’l-Mulk, along with his brother, was returned to the Sultan's camp, and all overdue tribute payments were duly settled. The Raya promptly released the prisoners and pledged to annually pay the Sultan the agreed-upon tribute. This marked the final conflict between Vijayanagara and the Bahmani kings, concluding the historical record of their interactions and relations with their southern neighbor. Abd-ur-Razzaq visited Vijayanagara shortly after this war, where he embellished the city's grandeur, praising its splendid architecture and formidable fortifications. Deva Raya lived for six more years following these events, during which the only source of concern was the northern frontier, particularly due to the activities of the monarch of Orissa, the Gajapatis. Therefore, upon Devaraya II's demise, the kingdom remained in a highly satisfactory state and smoothly passed on to his eldest surviving son, Mallikarjuna, without any disputes. Devaraya II had lost one or two of his adult sons during the wars against the Bahmanis throughout his reign. Additionally, it is believed that during the massacre that culminated in the attempt on his life, one of his grown-up sons was also killed. Consequently, it is likely that Mallikarjuna ascended to the throne at a relatively young age.

T. P. M. Lewis (26 July 1904 – 10 June 1989) was a British educationalist who served in Malaya, and is known for the diary he kept during his three and a half years as a POW in Singapore, which he later published. Early life and education T. P. M. Lewis was born on 26 July 1904 into a Welsh family, and educated at Royal Masoninc School, Bushey, Hertfordshire, and at Jesus College, Oxford. Career Lewis began his career in 1926 when he joined the Malayan Education Department of the Straits Settlements and Federated Malay States as Assistant Master, and in 1930 was appointed Acting Headmaster of Anderson School, Ipoh, in addition to his other duties. He then served in several schools as headmaster or assistant headmaster including King Edward VII School, Taiping (1932), English College, Johore Bahru (1936), Francis Light School, Penang (1938), and Clifford School, Kuala Lipis (1940). After the Second World War, during which Lewis spent over three years in captivity in Singapore, he returned to Malaya and rejoined the Malayan Department of Education. In 1948, he was appointed Director of Education, Johore, before being promoted to Deputy Director of Education, Federation of Malaya, based in Kuala Lumpur. In 1954, he went to Singapore where he assumed the role of Senior Inspector of Schools, and Director of Education. At the time there was a rapid increase in the number of school age children in Singapore, and there was an insufficient number of teachers and schools. Lewis was responsible for introducing a major school building programme, and the system of morning and afternoon schools where premises were used in two sessions by different pupils and staff. Lewis left Malaya in 1956 and returned to the United Kingdom where he taught at Abermad Preparatory School, Aberystwyh and in 1968 at Dragon School, Oxford. He retired in 1976, aged 72.

Four of the six guides were killed or executed by the Japanese. When Allied forces surrendered, Lewis was interned in Changi prison with his brother John, his other brother Gerwyn having been sent to Burma to work on the railway. During his internment Lewis kept a diary, which was buried in a tin in the prison's vegetable garden, knowing that discovery by the Japanese would have resulted in his execution. The diary, which survived the war, is the only known account of internment in Singapore written at the time, and was later published in a book "Changi - the lost years (1941-1945): A Malayan Diary."

2024 City of Bradford Metropolitan District Council election
The 2024 City of Bradford Metropolitan District Council election will take place on 2 May 2024. One third of councillors (30 out of 90) are to be elected. The election will take place alongside other local elections across the United Kingdom. Background The Local Government Act 1972 created a two-tier system of metropolitan counties and districts covering Greater Manchester, Merseyside, South Yorkshire, Tyne and Wear, the West Midlands, and West Yorkshire starting in 1974. Bradford was a district of the West Yorkshire metropolitan county. The Local Government Act 1985 abolished the metropolitan counties, with metropolitan districts taking on most of their powers as metropolitan boroughs. The West Yorkshire Combined Authority was established in 2014 and began electing the mayor of West Yorkshire in 2021. Since its formation, Bradford has been variously under Labour control, Conservative control and no overall control. Councillors have predominantly been elected from the Labour Party, Conservative Party and the Liberal Democrats. The Green Party gained their first councillors on Bradford Council in 2002 and following these elections became the joint third largest group on the council. Labour had regained control of the council from no overall control in the 2014 council election, gaining one seat to hold 46 out of 90 seats on the council. The Labour Party maintained its majority on the council in subsequent elections. Of the 30 seats contested in the previous election in 2023, Labour won 22 on 47.0% of the vote, the Conservatives won four seats on 24.0% of the vote, the Green Party won three seats on 14.5% of the vote, and the Liberal Democrats won one seat each on 8.5% of the vote. Positions up for election in 2024 were last elected in 2021. In that election, fifteen Labour councillors, eleven Conservative councillors, three Liberal Democrat councillors, two Green councillors, and two independent councillors were elected. Electoral process The council elects its councillors in thirds, with a third being up for election every year for three years, with no election in the fourth year. The election will take place by first-past-the-post voting, with wards generally being represented by three councillors, with one elected in each election year to serve a four-year term. All registered electors (British, Irish, Commonwealth and European Union citizens) living in Bradford aged 18 or over will be entitled to vote in the election. People who live at two addresses in different councils, such as university students with different term-time and holiday addresses, are entitled to be registered for and vote in elections in both local authorities. Voting in-person at polling stations will take place from 07:00 to 22:00 on election day, and voters will be able to apply for postal votes or proxy votes in advance of the election. Previous council composition Changes: June 2023: Mohammed Nazam is suspended from the Conservative Party after apologising for attending a Pride event and calling it a "lapse in judgement" that "contradicts [his] personal religious beliefs." October 2023: Sarfraz Nazir and Taj Salam resign from the Labour Party over Kier Starmer's comments on the Israel–Hamas war and join the Bradford Independent Group. March 13 2024: Julie Lintern is suspended from the Labour Party after voting against the administration's budget. Notes References City of Bradford Metropolitan District Council elections Bradford

Martyrs beheaded by the Latins at Iveron Monastery on Mount Athos
The holy martyrs, beheaded by the Latins at the Iveron Monastery on Mount Athos are Georgian saints who were decapitated by the Latins in the 13th century at the Monastery of Iviron. They are commemorated on May 13. Georgian monks began to settling on Mount Athos from the forties in the 940s. by the 13th century, it had become a stronghold for crusaders. Crusaders, often referred to as Papists, launched repeated attacks on the area between 1259 and 1306. In an attempt to undermine Orthodox unity, they decapitated several abbots from monasteries such as Zograf Monastery, Vatopedi, Protaton, among others. Not even the Monastery of Iviron was spared their wrath. The crusaders demanded that the Iveronian monks accept Catholic faith and recognize the supremacy of the Pope, which the monks refused. As reported by the Athonite Patriarchate, the monks were forcibly removed from Iveron Monastery, placed on a ship, and drowned at sea by the Papists. The younger and healthier monks, predominantly Georgian, were transported to Italy along with monastery property and sold into slavery. According to various sources, this event took place at Iveron Monastery, with one indicating 1259 and others suggesting a timeframe between 1276 and 1280. References Saints of Georgia (country)

Tintal library
The El Tintal Manuel Zapata Olivella Public Library, part of BibloRed, is located in the west of Bogotá, Colombia, on Ciudad de Cali Avenue. It was designed by the architect Daniel Bermúdez. Formerly, it operated as a waste and garbage treatment plant, Protecho, owned by the company EDIS, but it was abandoned. Its construction began in 1998 and was completed in 2002. Characteristics The library has an area of 6,650 m2 and a capacity of 150,000 volumes. It has a reading room for young people and adults with a capacity of 500 people, consisting of a reference room, a newspaper and periodical section, rooms for group work, a multimedia room, and a computer room. Additionally, there is a children's room with a capacity for 200 children, including a reading room, workshops, a playroom, and multimedia facilities. Among its facilities, there is also an auditorium for 160 people, three multipurpose rooms, a temporary exhibition hall, and a room with information about Bogotá. Access The library is located on City of Cali Avenue, near to the New Castilla area and the Tintal Plaza shopping centre, in the Kennedy District, west of Bogotá. In addition to the City of Cali Avenue, Las Americas Avenue serves as a route to reach the library thanks to the Transmilenio service and other regular ways of public transportation. History The waste treatment plant was established in 1989 with an estimated lifespan of 5 to 7 years. It was in operation until the liquidation of EDIS (for "Empresa Distrital de Servicios Públicos", or District Public Services Company) in 1993. In 1999, G. Sierra Mechanics Engineering was commissioned to carry out the "Diagnosis of the current state of the waste transfer plant", detailing the situation of each of the plant's components, the possible causes for its failure to function properly, and the minimum conditions necessary to seek some utilization of the existent parts on site. The document is a precedent for the origin of the Manuel Zapata Olivella El Tintal Public Library, which was built on the site where the plant used to operate. The library opened on June 29th, 2001, making a transition "from garbage to reading", in the words of its architect Daniel Bermúdez. In 2006, it was named the Metropolitan Public Library Tintal "Manuel Zapata Olivella", according to Agreement 224 of 2006 of the Bogotá Council.

NGC 3395
NGC 3395 is a peculiar spiral galaxy in the constellation Leo Minor. The galaxy lies about 55 million light years away from Earth, which means, given its apparent dimensions, that NGC 3395 is approximately 35,000 light years across. It was discovered by William Herschel on December 7, 1785. NGC 3395 interacts with NGC 3396. NGC 3395 forms an interacting pair with NGC 3396, a magellanic spiral galaxy that lies 1.5 arcminutes from the nucleus of NGC 3395. The mass ratio of the two galaxies is about 1.5 to 1. The two galaxies appear seperate but a bridge of material is visible between them and tidal tails are observed. Dynamical modelling of the pair suggests that the two galaxies had a first close encounter in the past, which resulting in gas been stripped from NGC 3395 and forming a tidal tail to the south-east. A second close encounter took place about 50 million years ago, resulting to starburst activity. The two galaxies will most likely merge in the next 500 million years. The galaxy hosts a number of HII regions that are star forming with the region of most intense star formation being in the northwest of the center, while star formation has also being in observed in the end of the spiral arm northeast of the nucleus and in three regions in the bridge between the two galaxies. Three more star forming regions are visible in a tail southwest of the galaxy. The average size of the knots in NGC 3395 is an order of magnitude smaller than those in NGC 3396. The nucleus of NGC 3395 doesn't appear to be active. The NGC 3395/3396 pair is part of the NGC 3430 Group or LGG 218. Other members of the group include the galaxies NGC 3381, NGC 3424, NGC 3430, NGC 3442, and IC 2604. IC 2604 lies 14 arcmin to the south-west of the pair and IC 2608 14 arcmin to the south-east. The group is part of the Leo II groups, which is part of the Virgo Supercluster.

Stenders Kunstforlag
Stenders Kunstforlag was a leading publisher of postcards and reproductions of artworks based in Vopenhagen,, Denmark. History Carl Stender (18621902) was born into a Danish-speaking family in Schleswig. His father Friedrich Ludwig Stender was the managing director of the local psychiatric hospital. In the middle of the 1880s, Stender moved to Copenhagen. Stenders Kunstforlag was founded by him in 1999. The company was initially based in rented premises in Tegne- og Kunstindustriskolen for Kvinder's building at G. C. Andersens Boulevard 10 (then Halmtorvet 10). In around 1890 Stender moved the company to larger premises in Berling's building at Pilestræde9 26. The company had now also moved into the market for reproductions of Nordic artworks. Stender's younger brother Villy (1877-1946) became a partner in 1808. In 1899, Stenders Kunstforlag was converted into a limited company (aktieselskab). In the same year, it relocated to larger premises at Frederiksholms Kanal. Kunstforeningen was also based in the building. After Carl Stender's death in 1902, Stenders Kunstforlag was continued with his brother-in-law Wilhelm Knudsen (brother of his wife Olga) as managing director. He had for several years worked for the company as a travelling salesman. After his death just four four years later, he was replaced by Villy Stender and Poul Mik. Meyer. In the same year, Stenders Kunstforlag relocated to new premises in the Ferrum Building at Rådhuspladsen 35. The building had replaced five older properties in 1904. It was built to designs by Philip Smidth. A subsidary was shortly thereafter established in Stockholm. It was headed by Martin Bjorkmann. In 1911, Rådhuspladsen 35 was acquired by the newspaper Politiken. In 1916, Stænders Kunstforlag bought P. Ipsens Enke. In 191617, it constructed a large new building at Bernstorffsgade 23 as a new home for the two companies. The building was designed by Med Albert Oppenheim. In the 1920s and early 1930s, Stenders Kunstforlag was hit by the economic crisis. When Poul Mik. Meyer died in 1930, he was succeeded by Villy Stender's eldest son Curt as head of the daily operations. He invested heavily in new printing machinery. By 1934 the crisis years were replaced by a period with new growth. Villy Stender died in 1946 and Curt died just 47 years old in 1052. The company was then continued by the latter's widow Gertrud with the two long-employees Kaj Ditlevsen and as managing directors. Curt and Gertrud Stender's son Rolf joined the firm in 1955. In 1960, he took om the position of managing director of the company. In 1963, Stenders Kunstforlag relocated to a new building at Meterbuen 9-13 in Skovlunde. The new building was designed by Jørgen Maahr. See also Alex.

Herbert Antcliffe (30 July 187511 September 1964) was a British musicologist, music critic, teacher and author on musical subjects, who established his career in Sheffield and later moved to The Hague in Holland. Antcliffe was born in Sheffield, son of Herbert Antcliffe of Eckington, Derbyshire and his wife Cordelia Staniforth (younger sister of the hymn composer Thomas Worsley Staniforth, whose music Antcliffe later edited). Antcliffe attended Sheffield University in its formative years, where he first encountered the conductor and composer Henry Coward, who remained a friend. From 1895 he established himself as a music critic for the Sheffield Telegraph. He was also organist at St Matthew's Church, Carver Street, Sheffield Treeton Parish Church and St Wilfrid's Church, Sheffield.

Leslie Bernstein
Leslie Bernstein (9 October 1939 – 28 July 2022) was an American cancer epidemiologist and biostatistician. Known particularly for her research on breast cancer, in 1994 Bernstein led a ground-breaking study that found a correlation between moderate exercise and breast cancer risk reduction. Bernstein received many awards for her research, including from the American Association for Cancer Research, and was described as the "mother of cancer epidemiology" by City of Hope. Personal life and education Bernstein was born on 9 October 1939 in Long Beach, California. During her youth, she was a nationally ranked swimmer. She graduated from Hughes Junior High in Long Beach and started her studies at the University of California, Los Angeles at the age of 16, earning an undergraduate degree in mathematics in 1959, having initially hoped to become a statistician. When she was 18, she married Saul Bernstein, a physical education student who had similar aspirations to work in medicine. Recognising they could not afford to pay two sets of tuition fees, Bernstein paused her studies to raise their children while her husband trained as a paediatric orthopaedic surgeon. During the Vietnam War, Bernstein's husband was drafted, and the family relocated to Kansas and subsequently Georgia, where he treated wounded soldiers. They later spent a period of time in the United Kingdom, where Bernstein's husband completed his medical fellowship. After a 17-year break, Bernstein resumed her studies at the age of 36 at the University of Southern California. She went on to obtain a master's degree in gerontology in 1978 and a PhD in biometry in 1981, at the age of 41. Bernstein was married until her husband's death in 2010, and they had three children together. Bernstein died on 28 July 2022 at the age of 82. Career and research After receiving her PhD in 1981, Bernstein worked as a researcher and professor at the Keck School of Medicine of USC for 25 years, before officially retiring in 2007. She went on to serve as the director of the cancer aetiology at the Beckman Research Institute City of Hope, a cancer research and treatment centre. During her career, Bernstein led several ground-breaking studies. In 1994, she identified that people could reduce their risks of developing breast cancer through moderate exercise, becoming the first researcher to highlight the links between exercise and cancer survival. In 2017, Bernstein participated in a study that found the use of low-dose aspirin could reduce the risk of developing breast cancer in women. In addition to her breast cancer research, Bernstein also contributed to research on other forms of cancer, including non-Hodgkin lymphoma and oesophageal cancer, as well as into the long-term impact of cancer treatments on survivors. Alongside Jonine Bernstein, Bernstein worked on the twenty-year Women's Environmental Cancer and Radiation Epidemiology (WECARE) study, which was the largest study of genetic susceptibility and risk for second primary breast cancer in women already diagnosed with the disease. In 1995, she co-founded the California Teachers Study, a cohort of 133,479 female public school professionals, which studied the impact of health behaviours on disease development through completing regular questionnaires with participants. Bernstein served as the California Teachers Study's Principal Investigator between 2006 and 2016. Bernstein joined the American Association for Cancer Research in 1996, and served as a council member for its Women in Cancer Research group from 2011 until 2013. She also worked closely with the National Breast Cancer Coalition as a proponent for patient advocacy. Her additional support of the NBCC included joining them in testifying before Congress, and taking part in work to dispel myths around abortion being a cause of breast cancer. Recognition In recognition of her cancer prevention research, Bernstein received the AACR–Prevent Cancer Foundation Award for Excellence in Cancer Prevention Research in 2007, and the AACR–American Cancer Society Award for Research Excellence in Cancer Epidemiology and Prevention in 2018. She also received recognition the Abraham Lilienfeld Award for Lifetime Contributions to Epidemiology, in addition to awards from the San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium, the American Society for Preventative Oncology, and the University of Southern California. Bernstein also received recognition for her prominence as a woman in science, as well as for her commitment to mentoring female students, researchers, and faculty members throughout her carer. For this, she received City of Hope's Lifetime Achievement Mentoring Award, as well as the Rosalind E. Franklin Award for Women in Science.

Tel Eton
Tel Eton is an archaeological site measuring 60 dunams, located in the Telam Valley, near Nahal Adoriim in the southeast of the Judean Lowlands, near Moshav Shekef. The Tel's current name comes from the nearby village that was inhabited between the Byzantine period to the Arab period, Kharbat Eyton. In a survey conducted on the Tel, signs of settlement were discovered from the Early Bronze Age to the Persian and Hellenistic periods, in the 3rd-4th centuries. The survey brought up a few findings from later periods, which probably do not reflect a permanent settlement in the Tel. During the Byzantine period, the Tel became agricultural land, and during this period large earthworks were carried out in the site and many terraces were built, which give the mound its current shape. Research history The site is marked on the map of the PEF Survey of Palestine as "Khirbat Aitun" (Kh. Aitun). Near the Tel appears on the map an innocent-looking inscription about caves and pits in the area. In fact, the area contains many hundreds of burial caves. The Tel and its surroundings remained unexcavated for many decades, until after The Six Day War, widespread grave robbing began around the site. Following this, the Israel Antiquities Authority, in collaboration with Tel Aviv University and the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, carried out rescue excavations in the necropolis of the Tel, in which burial caves were discovered from the Late Bronze Age to the Roman period (a period that is not represented in the Tel itself). In the summer of 1976, robbery excavations were conducted on the Tel. As a result, the members of the Tel Lachish excavation team came to Tel Eton, and conducted rescue excavations for two weeks, in the center of the Tel. The limited excavation brought up mainly findings from the 8th-9th centuries BCE - Iron Age 2. Starting in 2006, a delegation from the Department of Land of Israel Studies and Archeology at Bar-Ilan University led by Avraham Faust excavated the site. The history of the Tel The information about the Tel in its beginnings is limited, as the excavations have not yet deepened beyond the Late Bronze Age, but the results of the survey show a small settlement in the Early Bronze Age, which declined in the Intermediate Bronze Age, revived in the Middle Bronze Age and grew to become a significant city in the Late Bronze Age. The settlement, which lies on the seam between the Judean and Philistine areas of control, continued its life during the Iron Age as a fortified city. The main finds in the Tel belong to the Iron Age II, when a main city existed on the Tel and was one of the largest in the Kingdom of Judah. At the top of the Tel, a spacious house of the Four-room house (also known as an "Israelite house") type was discovered, built of bricks and fieldstones and Ashlar. The house, which is particularly large, covers an area of ​​250 square meters (and apart from the courtyard, there was probably also a second floor), and contains a rich find, especially an archaeobotanical find: olive seeds, grapes, lentils, grains and cloves of garlic. The beginning of the building is dated according to the organic find to the end of the 11th century or the beginning of the 10th century BCE. The building was destroyed at the end of the 8th century, perhaps during Sennacherib's campaign in 701. In the later period of the settlement on the Tel, a large citadel was built in the place where the "Governor's House" used to stand, with particularly thick walls. The walls survived only to the height of one course so that the outline of the citadel can be seen, but it cannot be dated. Based on the findings elsewhere on the hill, the excavators speculate that this citadel was built in the Persian period, or at the beginning of the Hellenistic period. The burial caves The remains of an ancient cemetery considered one of the largest in the Land of Israel, were uncovered around Tel Iton. The cemetery was used continuously from the Late Bronze Age to the Iron Age II (8th century BC). About 400 burial caves were uncovered there; The earliest of them date to the Intermediate Bronze Age (16th-15th century BC), while the latest dates to the Iron Age II. The original cemetery was west of the mound, and in the 8th and 7th centuries BC it began to spread to other areas around The mound. According to a study conducted there, the cemetery at Tel Aiton and other sites in the lowlands had an influence on the development of burial in the Kingdom of Judah. In the lowlands, an area inhabited by Canaanites who later assimilated among the rest of the inhabitants of Judah, the custom of burial in caves predates the central mountain area, whose inhabitants used to bury their dead in simple shallow graves, while the burial caves were mainly used by members of the upper class. In the 8th century, there was a significant change in the burial method in the kingdom, and the use of burial caves became particularly popular, also among the other strata of the population and you can see burial caves of the type known as the "Jewish Tomb". These adopted a new type of burial model in caves, which is somewhat similar to the "Beit Arba HaMrahavim", the most common residential model in the kingdoms of Judah and Israel. In light of the findings from Tel Iton, the researchers speculate that this method spread from the Judean Lowlands. With the adoption of the cave burial method throughout Judea, the residents of Tel Aiton also made changes and adjustments to the cave burial method in the settlement. First, the investigation of the Tel Aiton cemetery in a rescue excavation conducted in 1968 following reports of antiquities being looted. Later, a number of rescue excavations and archaeological surveys were conducted at the site. Identification The Palestine Exploration Fund identified Tel Eton with the city of Itam, which belonged to the tribe of Shimon, and later this identification was supported by Yohanan Aharoni. Martin Noth identified the Tel with the city of "Aglon" which is mentioned several times in the Book of Joshua, and is described as being between the cities of Lachish and Hebron. Nut's identification was also accepted by Anson Rainey and is considered the accepted identification of the Tel. Gershon Galil identified Libnah at Tel Eton, an identification denied by Nadav Na'aman, who states that the site was not inhabited in the seventh century, which does not correspond to Hamotal the daughter of Jeremiah, who was the wife of King Josiah of Libnah. Zechariah Kalai hesitantly raised the idea that Tel Eton is Moresheth-Gath. References Webarchive template wayback links Coordinates on Wikidata Archaeological sites Archaeological sites in Israel

Johannes August Winter
Johannes August Winter (17 December 1847 – 7 April 1921) was a German Lutheran missionary for the Berlin Missionary Society (BMS) who played an important role in the formation of the Lutheran Bapedi Church in South Africa at the turn of the 19th century, against a backdrop of competing political and economic power struggles between British, Afrikaner and native tribal interests. Early life Johannes's father, the Reverend August Wilhelm Winter, and mother, Anna Schüttge (also from a missionary family in Lusatia), came from Berlin to Bethany, Free State in 1839 to assist fellow missionary Carl Wuras. In 1847 August established a new BMS mission at Pniel in the Orange Free State, where Johannes and his siblings were born. The whole family returned to Germany in 1851 due to August's ill health, but the children all returned to South Africa after receiving their education in Germany. Education After successfully completing his schooling in Germany, Winter was admitted to the Berlin Missionary Society's seminary on the recommendation of inspector . He excelled academically and was admitted to a fully funded degree in theology at the University of Berlin, on the recommendation of the dean of the faculty, Dr. J.A. Dorner. Early career at Botshabelo In 1873 Winter returned to South Africa to commence his career at the Botshabelo mission station in the district of Middelburg in the then ZAR, originally established in 1865 by another BMS missionary, Alexander Merensky, father of the well-known South African geologist, Hans Merensky. In 1878 he became the head of the national helpers' seminary at Botshabelo. Marriage In 1876 Winter married Elisabeth Wangemann, daughter of the influential Hermann Theodor Wangemann, who had become director of the BMS in Berlin in 1865. Thaba Mosego In 1880 the Winters were asked to establish a mission station at Thaba Mosego, the vanquished capital of the Pedi king, Sekhukhune, who had been defeated the year before by an army of British, Boer and Swazi soldiers. In 1881 Sekhukhune was released from prison by the British and returned to his old domain, where a working relationship developed between him and Winter. However, in 1882 Sekhukhune was assassinated by his brother, Mampuru, a crime for which Mampuru was captured and hanged in 1883 by the Boer government that had recently taken over from the British. Sekhukhune was succeeded by his brother, Kgoloko, who ruled for the next decade, maintaining mutually beneficial relationships with both Winter and Abel Erasmus, the ZAR's "native commissioner" for the area. Lutheran Bapedi Church In 1889 a prominent native evangelist, Martinus Sewushane, and around 500 of his followers decided to secede from the Berlin Missionary Society and form the Lutheran Bapedi Church (LBC), asking Winter to join them. Through his relationship with Erasmus, Winter arranged for formal recognition of the new church by the ZAR government. After the Second Boer War, Winter returned to the Bapedi, settling on the farm Onverwacht near Schoonoord, which he had been given by Transvaal Consolidated Land and Exploration Company (TCL), a massive company owned by the powerful mining company, Corner House, as a bonus for discovering asbestos in the area. Retirement and death Winter retired from the LBC in 1917, spending his last few years with his oldest son, Christian, on the farm Mecklenburg in the Lydenburg area, still regularly conducting church services. He passed away on 7 April 1921 from heart failure. Published works "The Tradition of Ra'lolo" (1912). "The History of Sekwati" (1913).

Ancient Georgian place names
The exploration of ancient Georgian place names reveals a rich tapestry of cultural, religious, and historical influences that have shaped the country's geographic nomenclature over millennia. The historical overview of these place names uncovers their deep roots in Georgia's past, from the ancient kingdoms of Colchis and Iberia to the profound impact of Christianity and the complex interplay with neighboring empires such as the Roman, Persian, Byzantine, and Ottoman Empires. These interactions have left indelible marks on the landscape, embedding religious, cultural, and political narratives into the very names of places across Georgia. The influence of religion, particularly Christianity, on Georgian place names is significant. This religious heritage is evident in the naming of cities, towns, and natural features after saints, religious figures, and biblical events, serving as a testament to the deep spiritual roots and devotion of the Georgian people. Moreover, the presence of Georgian place names in Turkey highlights the historical connections and shared heritage between these regions. Despite the process of "Turkification," many place names retain their Georgian origins, pointing to the complex history of territorial changes, migrations, and cultural exchanges. The Roman influence on Georgian place names, while less direct, is a reminder of the ancient interactions between the Roman Empire and the Georgian kingdoms. This influence is seen in the adoption of Roman architectural and urban planning concepts, as well as in the cultural exchanges that occurred during this period. Significant ancient Georgian cities such as Mtskheta, Kutaisi, Uplistsikhe, Vani, and Tbilisi are emblematic of the country's rich history. These cities, with their ancient fortifications, religious monuments, and archaeological sites, serve as living testimonies to Georgia's diverse cultural heritage and historical significance. Modern Georgian place names with ancient origins further illustrate the continuity and evolution of the country's geographic nomenclature. Names such as Tbilisi, Kutaisi, Mtskheta, Uplistsikhe, and Batumi carry forward the legacy of the past, bridging ancient traditions with contemporary identity. Historical overview The history of Georgian place names encapsulates the profound interplay between the country's rich historical legacy, cultural evolution, and diverse geography. Tracing their origins to ancient times, these names bear witness to Georgia's storied past, from the early kingdoms of Colchis and Iberia to the influences of major empires like the Roman, Persian, Byzantine, and Ottoman. The introduction of Christianity as the state religion in the early 4th century further enriched the tapestry of place names, with many sites named after saints and biblical events. Additionally, the natural beauty of Georgia, from the towering Caucasus Mountains to the verdant valleys, has inspired place names that reflect the country's varied topography. The linguistic characteristics of the Georgian language, part of the unique Kartvelian language family, have also contributed to the distinctiveness of these names. This article explores the multifaceted origins and significances of Georgian place names, illustrating how they serve as a window into the historical events, cultural shifts, and natural landscapes that have sculpted Georgia into the nation it is today. Influence of religion on place names The influence of religion on place names in Georgia is a reflection of the country's profound and enduring spiritual heritage. Since the adoption of Christianity as the state religion in the early 4th century AD, religious beliefs have significantly shaped the nomenclature of Georgian locales, embedding religious symbolism and reverence into the very fabric of the geographic landscape. The conversion of Georgia to Christianity is traditionally attributed to Saint Nino in the 330s AD, marking a pivotal moment in the nation's history. This event not only transformed the spiritual life of the Georgian people but also initiated a profound transformation in the naming of places across the country. Cities, towns, and even natural features began to be named or renamed to reflect Christian values, stories, and figures. One of the most evident manifestations of this influence is the prevalence of place names derived from saints and religious figures. For example, numerous churches, monasteries, and settlements bear the names of saints who are venerated in the Georgian Orthodox Church. These names serve not only as geographical markers but also as constant reminders of the spiritual heritage and religious devotion of the Georgian people. Moreover, the names of many Georgian places are directly associated with biblical events and figures. This is indicative of the deep interweaving of religious narratives with the cultural and social fabric of the country. The ancient capital of Mtskheta, for instance, is replete with religious significance, hosting several of the country's most sacred and revered religious sites. Its name, while predating Christianity, has become synonymous with Georgian Christianity due to the city's central role in the spread of the faith. In addition to Christian influences, the religious landscape of Georgia has been shaped by its interactions with neighboring cultures and religions over the centuries. This has led to a rich tapestry of place names that reflect a diverse array of religious traditions and beliefs. However, the dominant influence of Christianity on place names is unmistakable and serves as a testament to the religion's central role in Georgian identity and history. The naming of places after religious figures and events is not merely a matter of historical curiosity; it reflects the ongoing importance of faith in the lives of the Georgian people. These names encapsulate stories of faith, perseverance, and devotion that continue to inspire and guide the nation. In conclusion, the influence of religion on place names in Georgia is a vivid illustration of the country's spiritual journey. From ancient times to the present, the interplay between geography and religion has created a landscape rich in religious symbolism and meaning. These place names stand as enduring monuments to Georgia's deep-rooted Christian heritage and its continuing influence on the nation's cultural and spiritual life. Georgian place names in Turkey The historical interconnections between Georgia and Turkey have led to the presence of Georgian place names within the modern borders of Turkey. These names are remnants of a complex history of territorial changes, migrations, and cultural exchanges between the two regions. The influence of Georgian culture and language in certain areas of Turkey is a testament to the shared history and interactions that have shaped the identities of both nations. Historically, the regions now known as Georgia and Turkey have been at the crossroads of various empires and civilizations, including the Byzantine, Ottoman, and Russian Empires. These powers often contested the territory due to its strategic importance and rich cultural heritage. As a result, the borders of Georgia have shifted over the centuries, leaving behind Georgian communities and place names in what is now Turkish territory. The process of "Turkification" of Georgian place names has been noted, where original Georgian names were adapted or changed to fit the Turkish language and phonetic system. This process was part of broader policies of cultural assimilation and administrative reorganization under various Turkish rulers. Despite these changes, many of the original Georgian names still bear resemblance to their origins, retaining elements of the Georgian language and nomenclature. One of the key factors contributing to the presence of Georgian place names in Turkey is the historical region of Tao-Klarjeti. This area, which is now part of northeastern Turkey, was once a core part of the medieval Georgian kingdom. Many churches, monasteries, and fortresses in this region bear Georgian architectural and linguistic marks, reflecting the area's Georgian Christian heritage. The names of these historical sites often preserve the Georgian names, serving as a testament to the region's past. Furthermore, migrations and population movements have played a significant role in the spread of Georgian place names across the border into Turkey. Throughout history, Georgians have migrated to Turkey for various reasons, including economic opportunities, political instability, and forced relocations. These communities brought with them their language and cultural practices, including the naming of places after Georgian towns, saints, and historical figures. In contemporary times, the study and preservation of Georgian place names in Turkey have gained interest among historians, linguists, and cultural preservationists. These efforts aim to document and understand the historical connections between Georgia and Turkey, as well as to preserve the cultural heritage represented by these names. In conclusion, Georgian place names in Turkey are a reflection of the historical, cultural, and linguistic ties between the two regions. These names serve as markers of a shared past, highlighting the complex interplay of cultures, languages, and histories that have shaped the identities of both Georgia and Turkey. The preservation and study of these place names are crucial for understanding the rich tapestry of cultural interactions in the Caucasus and Anatolia regions. Roman Influence on Georgian Place Names The Roman influence on Georgian place names is an intriguing aspect of the historical interactions between the Roman Empire and the ancient Georgian kingdoms. This influence is a testament to the extensive reach of Roman civilization and its interactions with the diverse cultures and peoples at its borders, including those in the Caucasus region where Georgia is located. The Roman Empire's expansion into the Caucasus region began in earnest in the 1st century BC, marking the start of a period of Roman influence that would last for several centuries. The incorporation of parts of what is now Georgia into the Roman Empire brought about significant cultural, political, and economic changes, some of which are reflected in the place names that have survived to this day. One of the most direct impacts of Roman presence in Georgia was the establishment of Roman settlements and military outposts. These often bore Latin names or were named after Roman officials, soldiers, or emperors. Over time, some of these names were adapted into the Georgian language, undergoing linguistic transformations while retaining their Roman roots. However, the specific names of such settlements that have survived into modern Georgian place names are scarce, largely due to the subsequent waves of influence from other cultures and empires that have dominated the region throughout history. In addition to settlements, the Romans also introduced their system of road construction to the region, connecting various parts of the empire and facilitating the movement of troops, goods, and information. The routes and destinations of these roads sometimes influenced the naming of places, with certain locations being named for their position along a Roman road or their function as a stopover point for travelers and merchants. The Roman influence on Georgian place names is also evident in the adoption of Roman architectural and urban planning concepts. The layout of cities, the construction of fortifications, and the establishment of public spaces such as forums and baths often followed Roman models. While the names of these structures and places have often been lost or transformed beyond recognition, their origins in Roman urbanism are a subtle reminder of the empire's impact on the region. Furthermore, the Roman period in Georgia was marked by significant cultural exchanges. The introduction of Christianity to Georgia in the early 4th century AD, a religion that had already been adopted by the Roman Empire, is one such example. While not directly related to place names, this religious transformation had profound effects on Georgian society and culture, indirectly influencing the naming of places after Christian saints and figures, a practice that became widespread in the centuries that followed. While the direct Roman influence on Georgian place names may not be immediately apparent, the legacy of Roman occupation and interaction with the ancient Georgian kingdoms has left indelible marks on the cultural and historical landscape of Georgia. The Roman period contributed to the shaping of Georgia's identity, with its influence permeating various aspects of Georgian society, from urban development and architecture to the eventual adoption of Christianity. The study of place names and their origins offers valuable insights into this complex and multifaceted history, revealing the layers of interaction and exchange that have defined the region over millennia. Ancient Georgian cities The history of Georgia is marked by the rise and fall of numerous cities that played pivotal roles in the cultural, political, and economic life of the region. These ancient Georgian cities, with their rich histories and archaeological remains, offer a window into the past, revealing the complexity and diversity of Georgian civilization over the millennia. This section highlights some of the most significant ancient cities in Georgia, each with its unique contributions to the country's heritage. Mtskheta Mtskheta, one of the oldest cities in Georgia, served as the capital of the early Georgian kingdom of Iberia from the 3rd century BC. Located at the confluence of the Mtkvari and Aragvi rivers, Mtskheta's strategic position made it a vital center for trade and cultural exchange. The city is renowned for its historical religious buildings, such as the Svetitskhoveli Cathedral and Jvari Monastery, which are UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Mtskheta's significance in Georgian Christianity cannot be overstated, as it was in this city that Christianity was declared the state religion in the early 4th century AD. Kutaisi Kutaisi, the legislative capital and the second-largest city in modern Georgia, boasts a history that stretches back over 3,000 years. It served as the capital of the ancient kingdom of Colchis, a rich and powerful civilization best known in Greek mythology as the destination of Jason and the Argonauts in their quest for the Golden Fleece. The city's historical significance is underscored by landmarks such as the Bagrati Cathedral and the Gelati Monastery, which reflect the architectural and cultural achievements of medieval Georgia. Uplistsikhe Uplistsikhe, meaning "the lord's fortress," is an ancient rock-hewn town in eastern Georgia, dating back to the early Iron Age. This city carved out of rock is one of the oldest urban settlements in Georgia and served as a major political, religious, and cultural center for centuries. Uplistsikhe's unique blend of pagan and Christian architecture provides insight into the religious transformations that took place in Georgia over the centuries. Vani Vani is an ancient city located in western Georgia, which flourished between the 8th and 1st centuries BC. It was a principal city of ancient Colchis, renowned for its sophisticated culture and as a center for the worship of the goddess Aphrodite. Archaeological excavations in Vani have uncovered rich collections of artifacts, including gold and silver jewelry, bronze sculptures, and ceramics, attesting to the city's wealth and its extensive trade networks with the ancient world. Tbilisi Tbilisi, the capital of modern Georgia, has its origins in the 5th century AD when it was founded by King Vakhtang Gorgasali. The city's strategic location at the crossroads of trade routes between Europe and Asia facilitated its growth into a thriving urban center. Tbilisi's diverse cultural heritage is reflected in its architecture, which encompasses Eastern Orthodox churches, Persian fortresses, and Soviet Modernist structures. The city's ancient past is still palpable in the historic district of Old Tbilisi, where narrow streets and old buildings tell the story of centuries of Georgian history. These cities, with their ancient fortifications, religious monuments, and archaeological sites, are not merely relics of the past but living testimonies to Georgia's rich and diverse history. They illustrate the country's role as a crossroads of civilizations, where East meets West, and where ancient traditions have been preserved and celebrated through the ages. Modern names with ancient origins The nomenclature of places within modern Georgia is a rich tapestry that weaves together threads from the country's multifaceted history, reflecting influences from various epochs, cultures, and languages. Many contemporary Georgian place names are deeply rooted in ancient origins, carrying forward the legacy of the past into the present. These names serve not only as geographical identifiers but also as cultural and historical signposts, offering insights into the historical events, religious beliefs, and societal changes that have shaped Georgia over the millennia. Tbilisi Tbilisi, the vibrant capital of Georgia, offers a prime example of a modern name with ancient origins. Founded in the 5th century AD by King Vakhtang Gorgasali, the city's name derives from the Old Georgian word "tbili," meaning "warm." This etymology references the area's numerous sulfuric hot springs, which have been a central feature of the city since its inception. Over the centuries, Tbilisi has grown from a small settlement into a major cultural and political center, all the while retaining its name that echoes the city's ancient roots. Kutaisi Kutaisi, Georgia's legislative capital and one of its oldest cities, traces its name back to ancient times. Historically, it served as the capital of the kingdom of Colchis, a region renowned in Greek mythology as the destination of Jason and the Argonauts in their quest for the Golden Fleece. The name "Kutaisi" has been linked to various etymological origins, some suggesting a connection to ancient Indo-European languages, reflecting the city's long history and its role as a cultural crossroads. Mtskheta Mtskheta, the ancient capital of the Georgian kingdom of Iberia, is another city whose name is steeped in history. As one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities in the world, Mtskheta's name is thought to derive from the Mtkvari River, on whose banks the city is situated. The city's name has undergone various transformations over the centuries, yet it remains a symbol of Georgia's enduring Christian heritage and its pivotal role in the country's religious history. Uplistsikhe The name "Uplistsikhe," meaning "the lord's fortress" in Georgian, refers to an ancient rock-hewn town that dates back to the early Iron Age. This name encapsulates the site's historical significance as a major political, religious, and cultural center, reflecting its strategic importance and the architectural ingenuity of its inhabitants. Uplistsikhe's name is a testament to the enduring legacy of Georgia's ancient civilizations and their contributions to the country's cultural heritage. Batumi Batumi, a major city and seaport on the Black Sea coast, has a name that also harks back to ancient times. While the exact origins of the name "Batumi" are debated, some theories suggest it derives from Greek or other ancient languages, reflecting the city's long history of trade and cultural exchange with the wider Mediterranean world. Today, Batumi is known for its blend of modern architecture and historical sites, embodying the fusion of ancient and contemporary influences that characterizes much of Georgia. These examples illustrate the deep historical roots of modern Georgian place names, each carrying forward the legacy of the past into the present. Through their names, these cities and towns offer a window into Georgia's rich tapestry of history, culture, and tradition, bridging the gap between ancient origins and contemporary identity.
