Pa Hin Ngam National Park

Pa Hin Ngam (ป่าหินงาม) is a national park in Chaiyaphum Province, Thailand. "Hin ngam" means "beautiful stone", "pa" means "forest". The park got its name from the strange rock formations at the west end of the park. Erosion has carved several large rocks into striking and unusual shapes.

In 1985, the Tep Satit Forestry Department first surveyed the area, long popular with locals, and recommended its protection. In October 1986, Pa Hin Ngam Park was created, covering 10 km2 around the strange rock formations which gave the park its name. In 1993, the Forestry Department of Thailand conducted a more thorough survey including the surrounding area, and recommended that it become a national park. The national park covering 62,437 rai ~ 100 km2 was created on 19 September 1994, which was officially gazetted in 2007.

The park is at the boundary of the Dong Phaya Yen Mountains and the Khorat Plateau. The steep cliff at the 846 m high Sut Phan Din viewpoint affords a view into a valley of the Sonthi River and the Sap Langka Wildlife Sanctuary. The name "Sut Phan Din" (สุดแผ่นดิน) means "end of land", reflecting the steepness of the cliff. This cliff also marks the watershed between the Chao Phraya and the Mekong rivers.

 * Lan Hin Ngam (ลานหินงาม) It was caused by the erosion of the soil and rocks into different shapes, which can be imagined as many kinds of objects and animals such as nails, radar, and hens.
 * Dok Kra Jiao or Bua Sawan Field (ทุ่งดอกกระเจียว หรือ ทุ่งบัวสวรรค์) Kra Jiao, a kind of curcuma, is an annual plant in the same species as ginger-galingale, scattered generally from Lan Hin Ngam to the Sut Phaendin viewpoint. Near the viewpoint is one of the fields of the Siam tulip (Curcuma alismatifolia), called "Dok Kra Jiao" (ดอกกระเจียว) in Thai. The dipterocarp forests bloom with the purple flowers at the beginning of the rainy season in July.
 * Sut Phaendin (สุดแผ่นดิน) is a steep cliff and the highest point of the Phang Hoei mountain range, two kilometres from the park office at 846 metres elevation. It is the cliff connecting between the central and northeastern regions.
 * Namtok Thep Phana (น้ำตกเทพพนา) is a medium-size waterfall originating from Huai Krachon flowing from the Phang Hoei mountain range. It has three tiers. There is water only during the rainy season.

The plants in Pa Hin Ngam National park
Pa Hin Ngam National park has the area that is full of green 112 square kilometers, has many kinds of plants, and the place to see the beautiful plants in the national park. There are two places that have different kinds of plant, the first is the place where you also can see the view that has a lot of trees called "Sut Phaendin" and the second is the place that has the most beautiful flower in the national park called "Bua Sawan Field".

When you are in the Sut Phaendin, you will see most of the area is a green field and it looks fertile because of many kinds of trees and they can be grown for the whole year. There are two different kinds of plants, the tropical plant and the dry evergreen plant. Also, these plants are protected by the officer of the national park for keeping them safe because the plants can be easy to destroy. However, the second place called "Bua Sawan Field" has more beautiful plants than Sut Phaendin.

Bua Sawan Field, has only a plant is called "Siam tulip" because it is a flower that is related to various ginger species such as turmeric. Another name that people actually call this flower is "Dok Kra jiao". The people that come to Plants in Pa Hin Ngam, they also come to see this flower. But Dok Kra jiao 's flower doesn't grow for the whole year, It grows only on the rainy season. It is the most beautiful plant in the national park.

Plants in Pa Hin Ngam National Park have very big area and full of green, there are many kinds of the plan. Especially the Bua Sawan Field, it has only one the plant that is called "Siam tulip" or "Dok Kra jiao" which grows in the rainy season while in Sut Phaendin, has many kinds of trees that grow for the whole year

Talk:Moe Berg

Jewish
Berg wasn't particularly observant, so I'm considering deleting Jewish from the page, or at least moving it out of the first paragraph. Any comments?

SeanO 12:58 27 Jul 2003 (UTC)

Was he Jew of religion or race? Thats the question. If he was Jew of race then the word Jewish should not be removed.

Antonio Jews are Hot Martin

According to his most recent biography, he was not religiously observant, but there were a few times when being Jewish affected people's reactions to him, and a few times when he commented on how it helped him maintain the sense of being an outsider in mid-20th-century America. DavidWBrooks 13:55, 24 Dec 2003 (UTC)

SeanO
SeanO, Thanks for catching the Powers, not Harris mistake. I was confusing Thomases. ww 17:26, 23 Mar 2004 (UTC)

My pleasure. When I see something cool added to pages on my Watchlist, I look it up too. Sometimes it results in finding new stuff... Collaboration, eh? --SeanO 01:10, Mar 24, 2004 (UTC)

Just noticed your comment. Yup. WP is fascinating... when it's not maddening! I'm just about to add a comment about ALSOS and Berg in it, particularly in Italy. Hope you approve. ww 18:48, 19 Apr 2004 (UTC)

White Sox
From The Catcher Was a Spy - "... the International League had ever done that. The Chicago Cubs offered Reading $25,000 for him. Chicago's South Side franchise, the White Sox, however, had earlier contracted with Reading for a $6,000 option on Berg, which they exercised. Berg finished the season with ..."

Rejected
Information needs to be added on why he rejected the medal of freedom (if known) Nil Einne 16:32, 26 December 2005 (UTC)

Doolittle raid
''During the summer of 1942, Berg screened the footage he shot of Tokyo Bay for intelligence officers of the United States military. The film may or may not have helped Lieutenant Colonel Jimmy Doolittle plan his famous Doolittle Raid.'' Regarding this entry, The Doolittle raid was in April of 1942, so if Berg really didn't show it until the summer, it could have had no effect on the raid. If the summer date is certain, this part should be removed from the article. --Blainster 03:22, 20 May 2006 (UTC)

 * As currently written, the article even contradicts itself on this. The section Second trip to Japan says "This provided American intelligence with rare photos of the city. He never did see the ambassador's daughter. Berg's films were an important part of the planning by Jimmy Doolittle for the surprise air raid on Tokyo in 1942."
 * but later in Spying for the US government: "(At one time it was thought his film may have helped Lieutenant Colonel Jimmy Doolittle plan his famous Doolittle Raid, but the raid was conducted well before the summer, on April 18, 1942.)"
 * So this needs to be resolved one way or another. Cicero225 (talk) 03:56, 24 July 2022 (UTC)

Red Sox Coach
Needs to be straightened out. The article has, After retiring as a player, Berg spent one year as the bullpen coach for the Red Sox in 1940.[citation needed]

This source differs:  http://espn.go.com/classic/biography/s/Berg_Moe.html

Sandy Georgia (Talk) 10:04, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

 * I cut this for now, as it was the last issue on the FAR.

 * " After retiring as a player, Berg spent one year as the bullpen coach for the Red Sox in 1940." Marskell 09:57, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

Revert?
Anyone know why the last version was reverted Long levi 06:50, 7 July 2007 (UTC)

 * If it is my reversion of Tecmo, that was done because he had deleted good links. He has just been banned from Wiki indefinitely for that activity here and elsewhere.--Epeefleche 16:46, 7 July 2007 (UTC)

 * Most of those links were not in the version that was reviewed during the FA process. I have to think that they should be removed again.  Why do they belong? Long levi 23:16, 7 July 2007 (UTC)

 * Articles, FA or not, are certainly not static on Wikipedia, so their prior absence is not a reason for removal. There is discussion on the Wikiproject baseball page of some such ELs, such as Fangraphs.  Which do you think do not belong, and why?--Epeefleche 02:40, 8 July 2007 (UTC)

 * Long levi Banned. FYI,  Longlevi has just been found to be a sockpuppet of the banned user named Tecmobowl, who has used socks in the past.  Accordingly, he has also been banned indefinitely.  See --Epeefleche 00:34, 13 July 2007 (UTC)

Incredible. so much for honesty —Preceding unsigned comment added by 220.101.77.212 (talk) 01:19, 27 June 2008 (UTC)

sourcing
Cool subject, but article seems sourced almost entirely from one book. Seems marginal as a featured article for that reason. 207.241.238.217 (talk) 07:18, 27 June 2008 (UTC)

 * Agree, futhermore several sections are poorly written, how did it ever get FA status? For example there are several references to him being Jew, and that somehow he didn't relate to being Jewish.  Apparently his father had an issue with Jews, but it is not at all clear what it is or even why it is important.  Since this is all from basically one source I get the feeling that I am being given the POV of just a few people and probably one author (the book) which may not really reflect on Moe Berg.  Arzel (talk) 13:09, 27 June 2008 (UTC)

 * Yes, the References section being full of a single source is surprising. Tempshill (talk) 17:18, 27 June 2008 (UTC)

 * Seems to me you guys need to know a little more about the historiography of a subject before being so hard on the sourcing of an article. Moe Berg is a third-string catcher who is primarily remembered today for being so darned odd.  In the grand scheme of baseball and the OSS both, he was not that important, so there is little scholarly literature on him.  The Catcher Who Was a Spy is the only monograph about the guy that exists, and that is supplemented by a few biographical entries in baseball encyclopedias and the like.  FA requires comprehensiveness and sourcing, which this article provides.  There is no requirement that X number of sources are used, only that "the relevant body of published knowledge" is represented.  Because there are so few sources on Berg, this is the best you get, and the FA criteria are satisfied. Indrian (talk) 20:47, 27 June 2008 (UTC)

 * FYI: I've got no dog in this hunt, but thought I should point out that there are a few books on Berg, in addition to the 1995 The Catcher Was a Spy.  There's 1996's Moe Berg:  The Spy Behind Home Plate (ISBN 0827606206), 1975's Moe Berg:  Athlete, Scholar, Spy (ISBN 0316483486), 1996's The Amazing Life of Moe Berg (ISBN 1562946102), 1991's The Strange Story of Moe Berg, Athlete, Scholar, Spy (ASIN B0006DDIBY), 1976's My Brother, Morris Berg:  The Real Moe (ASIN B0006EATBK).  Some of these are hard to find, and one or more may be a juvenile, but nonetheless, there are certainly more than one book on Berg.  And it does seem that some additional sourcing was certainly possible.  I know there are differences in opinion or interpretation between The Catcher Was a Spy and Moe Berg:  Athlete, Scholar, Spy, as I've read both carefully.  Anyway, as I say, FYI.  Monkeyzpop (talk) 21:21, 28 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Well, seems to me I need to know a little more about the historiography of a subject before commenting. I would agree that more sourcing is in order based on the above.  This article was promoted before the souricng requirements were in place, which is how it was promoted in the first place.  Now, it may need to be reviewed. Indrian (talk) 22:32, 28 June 2008 (UTC)

Death
In the "Death" section, it says:

"A nurse at the Newark, New Jersey hospital where he died recalled his final words as, "How did the Mets do today?" (They won.)"

It then cites the fact that the Mets won, but it doesn't cite that his final words as "How did the Mets do today?". 68.193.130.33 (talk) 15:40, 27 June 2008 (UTC)

 * Fixed. Experimental Hobo Infiltration Droid (talk) 05:23, 6 December 2008 (UTC)

I thought I could speak American English...
...until I saw this in an FA: "His Jewish heritage and modest finances combined to keep him on the fringes of Princeton society, where he never quite fit in."Is "fit" really the past participle (or whatever its called) for "fit"? Sounds real hick to my ears. But then, what do I know?  almost - instinct 22:35, 27 June 2008 (UTC)
 * I've never noticed before you brought this up that we have two different simple pasts for fit, I think depending on whether it's used transitively or--as is the case above--intransitively. Here's the AHD definition. -Eric talk 13:56, 28 June 2008 (UTC)

 * "Fit in" is an idiom and quite correct in that sentence. Indrian (talk) 20:46, 28 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Yes, I know "fit in" is an idiom and I know that it is quite apposite in that context, I was merely raising an eyebrow at the inflexion (sorry, we're AE here aren't we?) inflection, or rather, the seeming lack of one. Eric's link kindly pointed me in the right direction. In BE—as far as I can tell from my dictionary—the past participle of "fit" is always "fitted". But doubtless I'll turn out to be wrong about that too ;-)  almost - instinct 21:07, 28 June 2008 (UTC)

Evin Prison

Evin Prison is a prison located in the Evin neighborhood of Tehran, Iran. The prison has been the primary site for the housing of Iran's political prisoners since 1972, before and after the Iranian Revolution, in a purpose-built wing nicknamed "Evin University" due to the high number of students and intellectuals detained there. Evin Prison has been accused of committing "serious human rights abuses" against its political dissidents and critics of the government.

History
Evin Prison was constructed in 1972 under the reign of Mohammad Reza Pahlavi. It is located at the foot of the Alborz mountains on the former home of Ziaeddin Tabatabaee, who briefly served as prime minister in the 1920s.

The prison grounds include an execution yard, a courtroom, and separate blocks for common criminals and female inmates. It was originally operated by the Shah's security and intelligence service, SAVAK. It was initially designed to house 320 inmates — 20 in solitary cells and 300 in two large communal blocks — and was expanded to hold more than 1,500 prisoners, including 100 solitary cells for political prisoners, by 1977. On 11 February 1979, during the Iranian Revolution, crowds of rebels stormed the prison and freed all the inmates.

Under the Islamic Republic of Iran, the prison population was again expanded to 15,000 inmates. According to scholar Ervand Abrahamian: "In theory, Evin was a detention center for those awaiting trial", after which the prisoners would be transferred to another prison, either Qezel Hesar or Gohardasht Prison. "In reality, Evin served as a regular prison as many waited years before being brought to trial". Prominent prisoners often served their entire sentences in Evin. Executions took place at Evin. Following the Islamic Revolution, Mohammad Kachouyi was made warden of Evin. After his assassination in June 1981, Asadollah Lajevardi, the chief prosecutor of Tehran, served as warden until 1985. In 1998, the People's Mujahedin of Iran assassinated Lajevardi. The prison is located in a residential and commercial area known as Evin, next to the Saadat Abad district. A large park area with a popular upscale teahouse and restaurant is immediately next to it. Photography in front of and around the prison is illegal. Prisoners from Evin and Ghezel Hesar prison are to be transferred eventually to the Central Prison of Tehran, also known as Fashafaviye or Fashafoyeh.

Iran's judicial system is based on Islamic law, or sharia. The system is supervised by the Minister of Justice and the chief public prosecutor, appointed by the Supreme Leader.

2022 fire
On 15 October 2022, amidst the Mahsa Amini protests, a severe fire started in this prison, and the sound of security forces shooting was heard from inside the prison during numerous clashes with prisoners. The Center for Human Rights in Iran confirmed that it had received reports that there was a "gun battle" in Evin prison Saturday night that was continuing at 22:00 local time. Videos shared on social media on Saturday showed smoke rising from the prison. Repeated gunfire, as well as anti-government chants, could also be heard in the videos. The media affiliated to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and the government of the Islamic Republic reported the conflict and fire in this prison. According to the Judiciary Media Center, during a fight between several prisoners in Ward 6 and Ward 7, both of which are special prisons for financial convictions and theft, the sewing workshop of the prison caught fire. The families of prisoners in Evin and various others gathered near the prison. Government forces threw tear gas at them in response. The security forces also blocked Yadegar-e-Emam Expressway to prevent people from approaching. Anti-government slogans can be heard in videos taken around the prison.

1970s and 1980s
Notable prisoners at Evin before the 1979 revolution include Ayatollah Mahmoud Taleghani and Grand Ayatollah Hossein-Ali Montazeri. A prisoner held after the Islamic revolution was Marina Nemat, who spent two years in Evin starting in 1982 for participating in anti-regime protests at her school. She has written about her torture and the death of her fellow students at the prison. In her 2013 memoir, Face to Face with the Beast: Iranian Women in Mullahs' Prisons, the former Iranian nurse Hengameh Haj Hassan wrote about her incarceration in Evin prison in 1981, after being arrested for suspected connections with the Mojahedin. She described a system in which female inmates were frequently and systematically tortured by members of Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard, mostly by being beaten on the soles of their feet with cables. She also describes mass executions:"'In Unit 209, every day about 6.00pm, at dinner time, we heard an enormous and deafening noise, like a lorry shedding a heavy load of metal... It was the discharge of tens of firearms being fired at once on our friends.'"

2000s
Political prisoners of note held at Evin have included Akbar Ganji (held there from 2000 to 2006), Mohsen Sazegara (in 2003), Nasser Zarafshan, Hamid Pourmand (2005–06), Dariush Zahedi, a professor at the University of California, Berkeley, on charges of espionage (2003), subsequently acquitted in 2004, and Ramin Jahanbegloo (2006).

On 23 June 2003, Iranian-Canadian photojournalist Zahra Kazemi was arrested for taking photographs in front of the prison and died of blunt trauma to the head while imprisoned. The Iranian government said that she died from a stroke while being interrogated. Doctors examining Kazemi's body found evidence of rape, torture, and a skull fracture.

At dawn on 27 July 2008, the Iranian government executed a total of 29 people at Evin Prison by hanging.

Iranian music producer and composer Hangi Tavakoli was held in a solitary cell in Section 209 from December 2008 to February 2009 for the crime of "Action Against National Security" because of some of the music he had written and produced, which Iranian Government had labeled as "Brainwashing Against the Government". He had a sentence of execution, death by hanging, but due to the raising of human rights campaigns initiated by members of the public, the Iranian Justice System was pushed to reduce the sentence to 3 months of jail time and a US$100,000 penalty, conditioned on a full stop on all his musical activities. Tavakoli became a renowned record producer who continues his work outside of Iran.

Esha Momeni, a student at the California State University, Northridge, was held at Evin after her arrest on 15 October 2008 for crimes against national security. She was in Iran to visit family and research women's rights in the country. Momeni was released 11 November 2008.

On 17 November 2008, Ali Ashtari, a computer wholesaler who provided intelligence about Iran's nuclear facilities to Mossad, the Israeli intelligence agency, was executed by hanging at Evin Prison after being convicted in June 2008. Later that same month, journalist/blogger Hossein Derakhshan was held at Evin after his arrest in November 2008, allegedly for spying for Israel. Derakhshan was sentenced to 19½ years in prison on 28 September 2010.

Roxana Saberi, an Iranian-American journalist, was arrested in January 2009 for reporting without press credentials, with a charge of espionage added in April. She was held in the Evin Prison until her release in May 2009.

French student Clotilde Reiss stood trial in August 2009.

Over the years, Iranian converts to Christianity have also been detained. On 5 March 2009, Marzieh Amirizadeh Esmaeilabad and Maryam Rustampoor were arrested by Iranian security forces and labeled "anti-government activists". The women were held at Evin Prison. On 18 November 2009, they were released without bail, but the charges remained intact. In May 2010, Maryam and Marzieh were cleared of all charges.

Three Belgian tourists, Vincent Boon-Falleur, Idesbald Van den Bosch, and Diego Mathieu, were detained in Evin Prison for three months in 2009. Van den Bosch and Boon-Falleur were arrested on 5 September 2009 for entering an unmarked Iranian Military Zone near Semnan. They were detained in Semnan for three days before being transferred to Evin. Mathieu was later (16 September) arrested at the Iran-Turkmenistan border because the three had met on 4 September and exchanged phone numbers. The three were accused of spying and detained for three months (8 September–8 December 2009) in Section 209 of Evin, initially in solitary confinement and then in four-person cells with other Iranians. They were released thanks to Belgian diplomatic negotiations.

Iranian-Canadian journalist Maziar Bahari was imprisoned in Evin for 118 days after being in Iran while there on assignment to cover the 2009 Iran presidential election. Bahari documented his time at Evin in his memoir, titled Then They Came for Me: A Family's Story of Love, Captivity, and Survival, which was published by Random House in 2011. The memoir is the basis of the film Rosewater, which was written and directed by former The Daily Show host Jon Stewart. The film's title references the nickname Bahari gave his interrogator/torturer at Evin, based on the man's cologne.

Three long-time Middle-Eastern residents, Shane Bauer, Joshua Fattal, and Sarah Shourd, who were on holiday in Iraqi Kurdistan and were detained by Iran, were held in Evin Prison since the beginning of August 2009. Shourd was kept in solitary confinement. The Washington Post reported that they "were arrested in July [2009] by Iranian border guards while hiking in the mountainous Kurdish region between Iraq and Iran. Their families say they crossed the border accidentally, but a top Iranian prosecutor last month accused the three of spying." In December 2009, Iran's foreign minister Manouchehr Mottaki said the three would be put on trial, in a move that coincided with other points of contention between the two countries. Sarah Shourd was freed 14 September 2010, on a US$500000 bail. Two days earlier, the three Americans had been charged with espionage by Iranian prosecutors. Bauer and Fattal were released in September 2011.

Masoud Jamali, an Iranian-American television and music producer and owner of Tapesh Television based in Los Angeles, was imprisoned in Evin in 2012 for one year, charged with propaganda against Iran, and forbidden to leave Iran for three years. He was held in Section 209 of the prison for five months and was in 350 prison for seven months.

The prison also held members of religious minorities, including members of the Baháʼí Faith — on 14 May 2008, members of an informal body that oversaw the needs of the Baháʼí community in Iran were arrested and taken to Evin. They were held in Section 209 of the prison which is run by the government's Ministry of Intelligence.

Having taken the side of the people in joining protests for the Green Movement and the opposition in Paris at the 2009 presidential elections, he was fired, targeted, harassed, and made an example of by the Islamic Regime so none of the other diplomatic government officials' family members would dare to oppose from within the system publicly. After having his family threatened by the Ministry of Intelligence and Security, he returned to Iran. In October 2011, security agents raided his parents’ home and arrested him without a charge. He was put in solitary confinement at the Evin Prison in the infamous section 240, reserved for political prisoners, where he endured psychological torture and then charged with espionage and embezzlement.

Allegations of rape and torture
In August 2009, President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said in a live broadcast on state radio on rape and torture in Iranian prisons, "In some detention centers, inappropriate measures have taken place for which the enemy was again responsible."

Following the 2009 Iranian presidential election and subsequent protests, Iranian presidential candidate Mehdi Karroubi said several protesters held behind bars had been savagely raped, according to a confidential letter to senior cleric and former President Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani. Karroubi said this was a "fragment" of the evidence he had and that if the denials did not stop, he would release even more.

It is said that interrogators have used rape in Iran for decades. During the 1980s, the rape of female political prisoners was so prevalent that it prompted Hussein-Ali Montazeri, Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khomeini’s then-deputy, to write the following to Khomeini in a letter dated 7 October 1986: "Did you know that young women are raped in some of the prisons of the Islamic Republic?" Two prominent members of Iran's human rights community, the feminist lawyer and journalist Shadi Sadr and the blogger and activist Mojtaba Saminejad published essays online from inside Iran saying prison rape has a long history in the Islamic Republic.

In August 2021, a "hacktivist" group, going by the name "Edaalate-Ali" (lit. 'Ali's Justice'), leaked a CCTV footage showing the mistreatment of inmates, including a merciless Muslim cleric walking over the body of an elderly man, who was dragged across the institution by prison guards.

Charles Stanhope, 3rd Earl Stanhope

Charles Stanhope, 3rd Earl Stanhope, aka Charles Mahon, 3rd Earl Stanhope, FRS (3 August 1753 – 15 December 1816), was a British statesman, inventor, and scientist. He was the father of Lady Hester Stanhope and brother-in-law of William Pitt the Younger. He is sometimes confused with an exact contemporary of his, Charles Stanhope, 3rd Earl of Harrington.

Early life
The son of Philip Stanhope, 2nd Earl Stanhope, he was educated at Eton and the University of Geneva. While in Geneva, he devoted himself to the study of mathematics under Georges-Louis Le Sage, and acquired from Switzerland an intense love of liberty.

Politics
In politics he was a democrat. As Lord Mahon he contested the Westminster without success in 1774, when only just of age; but from the general election of 1780 until his accession to the peerage on 7 March 1786 he represented through the influence of Lord Shelburne the Buckinghamshire borough of High Wycombe. During the sessions of 1783 and 1784 he supported William Pitt the Younger, whose sister, Lady Hester Pitt, he married on 19 December 1774. He was close enough to be singled out for ridicule in the Rolliad:

 * ——This Quixote of the Nation
 * Beats his own Windmills in gesticulation;
 * To strike, not please, his utmost force he bends,
 * And all his sense is at his fingers' ends, &c. &c.

When Pitt strayed from the Liberal principles of his early days, his brother-in-law severed their political connection and opposed the arbitrary measures which the ministry favoured. Lord Stanhope's character was generous, and his conduct consistent; but his speeches were not influential.

He was the chairman of the "Revolution Society," founded in honour of the Glorious Revolution of 1688; the members of the society in 1790 expressed their sympathy with the aims of the French Revolution. In 1794 Stanhope supported Thomas Muir, one of the Edinburgh politicians who were transported to Botany Bay; and in 1795 he introduced into the Lords a motion deprecating any interference with the internal affairs of France. In all these points he was hopelessly beaten, and in the last of them he was in a "minority of one"—a sobriquet which stuck to him throughout life—whereupon he seceded from parliamentary life for five years.

Business, science and writing
Stanhope was an accomplished scientist. This started at the University of Geneva where he studied mathematics under Georges-Louis Le Sage. Electricity was another of the subjects which he studied, and the volume of Principles of Electricity which he issued in 1779 contained the rudiments of his theory on the "return stroke" resulting from the contact with the earth of the electric current of lightning, which were afterwards amplified in a contribution to the Philosophical Transactions for 1787. He was elected a fellow of the Royal Society so early as November 1772, and devoted a large part of his income to experiments in science and philosophy. He invented a method of securing buildings from fire (which, however, proved impracticable), the first iron printing press, a method to produce plaster molds of pages to be printed and then cast solid metal printing plates from them (stereotype matrix and stereotype plate), and the lens, all of which bear his name, as well as a monochord for tuning musical instruments, improvements in canal locks, experiments in steam navigation in 1795–1797, and two calculating machines (first in 1775). He was a member of the American Philosophical Society, elected in 1774.

When he acquired extensive property in Devon, Stanhope projected a canal through that county from the Bristol to the English Channel and took the levels himself.

His principal labours in literature consisted of a reply to Edmund Burke's Reflections on the French Revolution (1790) and an Essay on the rights of juries (1792), and he long meditated the compilation of a digest of the statutes.

Stanhope was elected a member of the American Antiquarian Society in 1816.

Marriages and children
Stanhope married twice. Firstly on 19 December 1774 to Lady Hester Pitt (19 October 1755 – 20 July 1780), daughter of William Pitt, 1st Earl of Chatham ("Pitt the Elder"), Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, by whom he had three daughters: Secondly in 1781 he married Louisa Grenville (1758–1829), daughter and sole heiress of the Hon. Henry Grenville (Governor of Barbados in 1746 and ambassador to the Ottoman Porte in 1762), a younger brother of Richard Grenville-Temple, 2nd Earl Temple, and of George Grenville. She survived him and died in March 1829. By her he had three sons:
 * Lady Hester Lucy Stanhope (1776–1839) a traveller and Arabist who died unmarried at the age of 63 in Syria.
 * Lady Griselda Stanhope (21 July 1778 – 13 October 1851), wife of John Tekell.
 * Lady Lucy Rachel Stanhope (20 February 1780 – 1 March 1814) who eloped with Thomas Taylor of Sevenoaks, the family apothecary, following which her father refused to be reconciled to her; but Pitt made her husband Controller-General of Customs and his son was one of the Earl of Chatham's executors.

 * Philip Henry Stanhope, 4th Earl Stanhope (1781–1855), eldest son and heir, who inherited many of his father's scientific tastes.
 * Maj. Hon. Charles Banks Stanhope (3 June 1785 – 16 January 1809), aide-de-camp to John Moore. He was killed at the Battle of Corunna
 * Lt Col Hon. James Hamilton Stanhope (1788–1825) captain and lieutenant-colonel of the 1st Foot Guards.

Death and succession
Lord Stanhope died at the family seat of Chevening, Kent, and was succeeded by his eldest who shared much of his father's scientific interest but is known also for his association with Kaspar Hauser. His monument at Chevening was sculpted by Josephus Pinnix Kendrick.

Its A Start Anyway
I've undertaken as a "summer project" to flesh out and enhance the Adair County entry. Several sections may be moved and/or enhanced from the Kirksville, Missouri wiki entry, as the early history stuff seems to fit better here. If anyone has any suggestions, complaints, help, etc. your feedback is most welcome. Either leave it here on the discussion page or contact my Wiki talk page. Sector001 (talk) 18:21, 1 May 2010 (UTC)

I am glad to see that someone is interested in bringing this page up to muster. I am also interested in significantly enhancing the historical portion of this page. I'm sure we'll be reviewing each others' work as the summer progresses and I look forward to improving it together. comment added by AWY (talk • contribs) 21:26, 8 June 2010 (UTC)

Public schools
ATTENTION: Please do not remove La Plata R-2 School district from the listings of public schools serving Adair County. La Plata is on the very extreme northern edge of Macon County, and its facilities are located in that county. HOWEVER the district boundaries include a portion of Adair County, basically south of county blacktops HH and E. Adair County residents who live or own property in that area pay taxes to La Plata R-2 and any children living there attend La Plata vs. Kirksville, Novinger, or Brashear schools.

Milton Margai

Sir Milton Augustus Strieby Margai (7 December 1895 – 28 April 1964) was a Sierra Leonean physician and politician who served as the country's head of government from 1954 until his death in 1964. He was titled chief minister from 1954 to 1960, and then prime minister from 1961 onwards. Margai studied medicine in England, and upon returning to his homeland became a prominent public health campaigner. He entered politics as the founder and inaugural leader of the Sierra Leone People's Party. Margai oversaw Sierra Leone's transition to independence, which occurred in 1961. He died in office aged 68, and was succeeded as prime minister by his brother Albert. Margai enjoyed the support of Sierra Leoneans across classes, who respected his moderate style, friendly demeanor, and political savvy.

Early life
Milton Augustus Strieby Margai was born on 7 December 1895 in the village of Gbangbatoke, Moyamba District, in the Southern Province of British Sierra Leone to Mende parents. He was the oldest of eighteen children. At the time of his birth, Sierra Leone was a British protectorate. His father was M.E.S. Margai, an affluent trader from Bonthe District. His grandfather was a Mende warrior chief. Margai received his primary education at the Evangelical United Brethren School in Bonthe, Bonthe District. He graduated from the Albert Academy in Freetown.

In 1921, Margai earned his bachelor's degree in history from Fourah Bay College. Margai went to medical school in England and graduated as a medical doctor from the Durham University College of Medicine (which went on to become Newcastle University Medical School) in 1926. Margai also attended the Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine. He became the first doctor from the protectorate. He was the first protectorate man to become a medical doctor.

Margai also played the piano, violin and organ.

Medical career
Margai returned to Sierra Leone in 1928 after earning his medical degree and enjoyed an exceptional career in the Colonial Medical Service. He served in 11 of 12 districts in the protectorate. He waged informational campaigns on social welfare and hygiene.

Women's health reform
Margai trained health care workers to instruct female community leaders in the Mende women's religion, the Sande. The Sande religion served as a facilitation system of practical knowledge about midwifery passed down by generations of women in the region. In 1948, Margai wrote an article for African Affairs entitled "Welfare Work in a Secret Society," in which he discusses his successes in establishing a series of training camps which taught hygiene and domestic skills to young female Sande initiates. In the article, Margai states "It is simply natural that such a society, when correctly approached, will not be very much averse to the idea of infusing in its teachings a correct and more up-to-date information on the subjects it has been trying to teach, provided it does not interfere or expose the secrets of the society."

Working in concert with local women's groups, Margai helped introduce health and hygiene training into puberty initiation ceremonies. He also trained midwives and was the author of an instruction manual on midwifery in the Mende language. The women whom Margai trained became known as "Mamma Nurses", and were respected for their prowess in midwifery due to Margai's training.

Early work
Margai's entry into politics occurred in the 1930s when he became a nonchief member of the Protectorate assembly representing the Bonthe region. By 1950, he was in charge of the Sierra Leone Organization Society. In 1951, Margai founded the nationalist Sierra Leone People's Party (SLPP) with Siaka Stevens, which won the 1951 election to the Legislative Council. After heading the departments of Health, Agriculture, and Forestry, Margai was elected chief minister in 1954. Although the SLPP won elections again in 1957, the following year Margai's leadership of the party was challenged by his younger brother, Albert, but even though he narrowly won the internal party election, he declined the leadership of the party, and left to form the opposition People's National Party, rejoining his brother in a coalition government in 1960.

Path to independence
Though Margai was pro-British and conservative in his political views, he felt that Sierra Leone would fare better as a self-determined state. In 1951, Margai oversaw the drafting of a new constitution which triggered the process of decolonisation. In 1953, Sierra Leone was granted local ministerial powers and Margai was made Chief Minister. The new constitution ensured Sierra Leone a parliamentary system within the Commonwealth of Nations and was formally adopted in 1958.

Margai led the Sierra Leonean delegation at the constitutional conferences that were held with British Colonial Secretary Iain Macleod in London in 1960. On 27 April 1961, Milton Margai led Sierra Leone to independence from the United Kingdom. The nation held its first general elections on 27 May 1962 and Margai was elected Sierra Leone's first Prime Minister by a landslide. His party, the Sierra Leone People's Party (SLPP) won a majority of seats in parliament. Margai then sought to heal divides between Sierra Leone's ethnic groups, as several northern ethnic groups felt underrepresented in the SLPP. To ameliorate their concerns, Margai appointed several elites from northern ethnic groups to key ministerial positions. However, this did little to lessen poverty in the north, and forced the SLPP to engage in clientelism in order to ease tensions with northern ethnic leaders.

Premiership
While Margai was only Prime Minister for three years, he served as a crucial first figurehead for Sierra Leone at the time of democratisation. In large part, Margai sought to unite the country and build a sense of national identity while becoming a member of the British Commonwealth. Margai was critical of colonialism as such, but also sought to give "credit where it was due," saying that if more colonial administrators "had been like Beresford-Stooke, Hodson, Wilkinson and Ransford Slater, colonialism would have had a better reputation. However, most simply were not." He also singled out the referendums held by Leslie Probyn as a point of praise. Margai sought good relations with the British government after independence. He said he felt "genuine respect" from Prime Minister Harold Macmillan and that "the respect was mutual." Margai gained the respect of the country's large illiterate population for his reputation as a skilled explainer. He also garnered support from local chiefs, who wielded significant social power at the time, because they respected the work he had done to achieve independence for the country. However, Margai faced criticism for suppressing the political activities of the All People's Congress (APC), Sierra Leone's opposition political party. Margai focused heavily on modernisation, particularly in the areas of education, health, and agriculture. Margai allowed local councils and governments to spearhead many improvement projects, but they were ultimately accountable to the central government, and Margai sometimes withheld funding from councils controlled by the opposition party.

When Margai became Prime Minister, he left control of the Sierra Leonean national army in the hands of the British. Slowly, Margai gave more control of the army over to Sierra Leoneans, and by 1964, the army was fairly ethnically heterogenous, with 26% of officers being Mende, 12% Temne, and 64% other groups. Once Margai died, however, his brother Sir Albert Margai took power and sought to make the army homogeneously Mende.

Margai struggled to handle issues of illegal immigration of the Fula people from Guinea. In 1962, his government rounded up several "strangers" under the assumption that they were illegal immigrants from Guinea, but released them upon learning they were local chiefs.

Global policy
He was one of the signatories of the agreement to convene a convention for drafting a world constitution. As a result, for the first time in human history, a World Constituent Assembly convened to draft and adopt the Constitution for the Federation of Earth.

Legacy

Today, Sierra Leoneans regard Sir Milton Margai as a man of honesty and high principle, and look back to his time in office as a period of prosperity and social harmony. In 1964, Sierra Leone released ½, 1, 5, 10 and 20 cent coins, all of which featured portraits of Margai.

Sir Milton Margai School for the Blind
In 1961, Margai appealed for funding to build a school for the blind in Freetown. In 1962, he set the foundation stone for the building at Wilkinson Road. The school motto is: "We cannot see but we will conquer". In 2006, the school was the subject of a three-part documentary on BBC News. The Milton Margai School for the Blind Choir has toured the UK twice in 2003 and 2006.

Milton Margai College of Education and Technology
In 1963, the Milton Margai College of Education and Technology was established. The first incarnation of the school was the Milton Margai Teacher's College but as the school grew and the curriculum expanded the name was changed to the Milton Margai College of Education. In 2000, the school merged with the Freetown Technical Institute.

Lindsey Township
The 1870 US Census shows Lindsey Township in Benton County, with 35 pages of enumerated residents. The listing showed Cole Camp as the nearest post office.

Mississippi frozen solid?
I'm extremely dubious that the Mississippi so far south of St. Louis and just above the mouth of the Ohio actually froze solid. It's massively wide at that place. Yes, it can and did freeze solid several times around St. Louis and above in the mid-1800's, but did it freeze in winter 1799-1800 at Cape Girardeau?? I can find no record of that. It's also uncited text, and I'm inclined to elide it unless or until there's a WP:RS for it. Sbalfour (talk) 18:26, 30 May 2023 (UTC)

Cite for Lincoln
The cite template seems to be inadequate. I wish to cite this document:

https://history.state.gov/historicaldocuments/frus1865p4/d1090

So the volume has the horrid title, *Papers Relating to Foreign Affairs, Accompanying the Annual Message of the President to the Second Session Thirty-eighth Congress, Part IV, Appendix to diplomatic correspondence of 1865; the assassination of Abraham Lincoln, late president of the United States of America, and the attempted assassination of William H. Seward, Secretary of State, and Frederick W. Seward, Assistant Secretary, on the evening of the 14th of April, 1865; expressions of condolence and sympathy inspired by these events*

It is of the series, *Foreign Relations of the United States* It was published by the US State Department in 1866 It is *Document 1090* in that volume.

So how the heck do I make that cite? ''Paul, in Saudi'' (talk) 15:23, 5 April 2020 (UTC)

Problems with Political section
I can tell that somebody worked very hard on the political culture section of the article, but I had to tag at least once sentence that seems to present some issues. The populist assertion needs some explanation or a source because, as an interested reader, I didn't find anything about wages on the Populism page so the assertion seems unhelpful and possibly POV. I wanted to bring it to the attention of other editors before making any changes because I am far from being an expert on politics. I think the entire section may have some Undue Weight issues as well, and definitely needs more citations overall. Wieldthespade (talk) 09:48, 10 November 2012 (UTC)
