Ragibagh Khan

Ragibagh (Mongolian: Рагибаха or Ражабаг;  ; Arigabag), also known by his era name as the Tianshun Emperor of Yuan, was a son of Yesün Temür (Taiding Emperor) who was briefly installed to the throne of the Yuan dynasty of China in Shangdu in 1328. Although he should have been the seventh ruler of the Yuan dynasty in succession to his father Yesün Temür, he was dethroned by his rival Tugh Temür (Emperor Wenzong) who was installed by a coup before Ragibagh's succession. Apart from Emperor of China, he is regarded as the 11th Great Khan of the Mongol Empire, although it was only nominal due to the division of the empire. He was the shortest-reigning Yuan emperor.

Life
Ragibagh was the eldest son of Yesün Temür. His mother Babukhan Khatun came from the Khunggirad clan, who had held power through marriage to the imperial family. He became Crown Prince at infancy in 1324. In August 1328 when Yesün Temür suddenly died in Shangdu, he was installed by the powerful Muslim officer Dawlat Shah there in the next month.

However, Yesün Temür's sudden death triggered an uprising of an anti-mainstream faction who had been dissatisfied with monopolization of power by Yesün Temür's aides including Dawlat Shah who had served him since he was stationed in Mongolia as Jinong. In the eighth month, the Mongolized Qipchaq commander El Temür, who was stationed in Dadu, launched a coup and called for installation of Khayishan's son. Tugh Temür was welcomed into Dadu in the same month in which Ragibagh ascended to the throne.

The civil war known as the War of the Two Capitals soon broke out. Ragibagh's army broke through the Great Wall at several points and advanced on Dadu; but was severely defeated by El Temür's troops. At the time, most of Ragibagh's army were involved on the Great Wall front, and the Shangdu court was compelled to surrender on the very next day. Dawlat Shah and most of the leading loyalists were taken prisoner and later executed by the Dadu faction after surrender; but Ragibagh is said to have disappeared after that, evidently murdered.

Name
Due to scarcity of historical sources and their multilinguality, Ragibagh's name has a lot of variants. The Tibetan Red Annals (Hu lān deb ther) calls him "ra khyi phag" (ར་ཁྱི་ཕག). The later Mongolian chronicles such as the Erdeni-yin tobchi and the Altan tobchi spell him Radzibaγ or Raǰibaγ. The History of the Yuan refers to him as A-su-ji-ba (阿速吉八), but it is apparently a misspelling of A-la-ji-ba (阿剌吉八). The initial "a" prevents the word from starting with "r" in Mongolian. It looks like a modern Mongolian painter Ts.Mandir interpreted his name as "Asidkebe" (Ашидхэв). According to some scholars, his name was from Sanskrit "rāja-pika" (राज पिक), which means "king cuckoo". He is also commonly known as the Tianshun Emperor based on his era name.

Fairy painting

Fairy painting is a genre of painting and illustration featuring fairies and fairy tale settings, often with extreme attention to detail. The genre is most closely associated with Victorian painting in the United Kingdom but has experienced a contemporary revival. Moreover, fairy painting was also seen as escapism for Victorians.

Origins and influences
Despite its whimsical appearance, fairy painting is strongly rooted in the literary and theatrical influences of Romanticism and the cultural issues facing the Victorian era. Among the most significant of these influences were the fantasy themes of Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream and The Tempest. Other literary works, such as Edmund Spenser's The Faerie Queene and Alexander Pope's mock-heroic The Rape of the Lock, have been cited as contributing influences as well. Innovations in stage production helped bring these works to the public eye, as the development of gaslight and improvements in wire-work led to increasingly elaborate special effects. Although once described by Douglas Jerrold as "a fairy creation that could only be acted by fairies", productions of A Midsummer Night's Dream became more common, eventually leading to an 1863 spectacle featuring Ellen Terry as Titania astride a mechanical mushroom.

Cultural changes were also an important factor during this period. Continuing industrialization was uprooting longstanding traditions, and rapid advances in science and technology, especially the invention of photography, left some people discomforted and confused. According to Jeremy Maas, the turn to mythological and fantasy elements, and in particular to the fairy's world, allowed an escape from these demands. "No other type of painting concentrates so many of the opposing elements of the Victorian psyche: the desire to escape the drear hardships of daily existence; the stirrings of new attitudes toward sex, stifled by religious dogma; a passion for the unseen; the birth of psychoanalysis; the latent revulsion against the exactitude of the new invention of photography." The significance of fairy paintings as a reaction to cultural change is not universally accepted, however. "Ultimately," Andrew Stuttaford wrote, "these paintings were just about fun."

Victorian fairy painting
The earliest artists considered to have contributed to the genre predate much of Romanticism and the Victorian era. Henry Fuseli and William Blake produced works that would be indicative of the later genre even before 1800. However, the artist most closely associated with fairy painting was outsider artist Richard Dadd, who was suspected to have schizophrenia and produced most of his work while incarcerated in the Bethlem psychiatric hospital for the murder of his father. Despite his status and condition, his fantastic subjects and extraordinarily detailed style were generally well-received, with one period reviewer describing his work as "exquisitely ideal". He accompanied his masterpiece, The Fairy Feller's Master-Stroke, which he painted from 1855 to 1864, with an elaborate poem which provides historical, literary, or mythological context to each of the depicted characters.

Fairy painting was not exclusively the domain of outside art, however. The work of John Anster Fitzgerald debuted at London's Royal Academy. His work, a series of Christmas-themed fairy illustrations, received wider public visibility in the Illustrated London News. The Scottish artist Joseph Noel Paton exhibited two immensely detailed paintings, The Quarrel of Oberon and Titania and The Reconciliation of Titania and Oberon, based on the popular fairy scenes of A Midsummer Night's Dream. Even Edwin Landseer, sometimes named "Victoria's favourite artist", produced a painting of Titania and Bottom in the genre's style, his Scene from A Midsummer Night's Dream.

The genre also influenced the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood and the movement it began. Co-founder John Everett Millais produced a series of fairy paintings based on The Tempest, ending with his 1849 work Ferdinand Lured by Ariel. Dante Gabriel Rossetti, another of the Brotherhood's initial members, took a more sensual approach to the subject, in both painting and poetry. Others involved with the movement, such as Arthur Hughes and William Bell Scott, also contributed to the genre.

Although the Cottingley Fairies briefly revived interest in fae subjects, the waning of Romanticism and the advent of World War I reduced interest in the styles and topics popular during the Victorian era. The illustrated fairy-tale books of Arthur Rackham are considered its "final flowering".

Modern revival
The interest in fantasy art and literature since the 1970s has seen a revival in the topics and styles of Victorian fairy painting, often in novel contexts. While artists such as Stephanie Pui-Mun Law have produced genre illustrations for book covers and role-playing games, the works of Brian Froud, also known for a series of illustrated fairy books, have been adapted into several successful motion pictures including The Dark Crystal (1982) and Labyrinth (1986). The concept design work of Alan Lee and John Howe for The Lord of the Rings (film series)(2001–03), for which the former won an Oscar, would change popular perceptions of the depiction of fairy cultures. The 2003 book, The Art of Faery, written by David Riche and mentored by Froud, contributed to the careers of twenty fairy artists of this revival movement, including Amy Brown, Myrea Pettit, Jasmine Becket-Griffith, Philippe Fernandez, James Browne, and Jessica Galbreth, many of whom went on to author individual art books. Depictions of fae have made their way into popular culture in other ways, including clothing designs, ceramics, figurines, needlecraft, figurative art, and quilting, many marketed through Hot Topic to an international market online. Part of the growth in popularity over the past three decades is due to the New Age Movement. Renaissance fairs and science fiction conventions have also developed modern fairy art as a genre of collectibles.

Sundorne

Sundorne is a suburb of the town of Shrewsbury, county town of Shropshire. It is located 2 km north of the town centre. The B5062 road begins at Heathgates Roundabout and is called Sundorne Road in the Sundorne area, before crossing the Shrewsbury by-pass (the A49) at Sundorne Roundabout and heading east towards Newport. Population (2001 census): 5123, reducing to 3,957 at the 2011 census.

It is an electoral division of Shropshire Council, returning one councillor, and a ward of the town, returning a councillor to the town council. The suburb has its own library/community centre and also now has the main sports centre for the town (the Shrewsbury Sports Village). The sports centre hosted the counting for the 2009 elections to Shropshire Council and Shrewsbury Town Council. There is a pub on Sundorne Road, called the Coracle and another pub at Heathgates Roundabout, called the Heathgates.

Military
One of Shrewsbury's two TA centres (the other (extant) being in Copthorne) was in Sundorne, until it closed. The land was sold and the centre building was being demolished in 2015, on its site has been built a care home, Montgomery House. The new Army Reserve Centre is located on the grounds of Shrewsbury Academy.

Canal and river
The now disused Shrewsbury and Newport Canal runs through woodland in the southern part of the area. The River Severn forms the southern boundary of Sundorne.

Education
The main secondary school in Sundorne was for many years called "Harlescott" school. It was then renamed Sundorne School to be more in keeping with the name of the ward (and less in keeping with the name of the Harlescott ward further to the northwest in Shrewsbury). Sundorne School stood next to Sundorne County Infants School, which has always used Sundorne in its nomenclature. Sundorne School combined with Grange School in September 2016 under the title Shrewsbury Academy. There still remains, however, Harlescott County Junior School on Featherbed Lane, the north-eastern boundary of the Sundorne ward. Many residents, especially those born before about 1985, in fact still use "Harlescott" to include Sundorne: the numerous car dealerships on Featherbed Lane carry advertisements with the address "Featherbed Lane, Harlescott", while the two churches on Meadow Farm Drive - the Church of England Holy Spirit Church and Roman Catholic Church of Our Lady of Pity - also have "Harlescott" in their titles.

Sport
Sundorne is represented in sport by the local Sunday League football club AFC Sundorne, members of the Shropshire County Minor League. Other football teams play at the Sports Village, including Haughmond (named after the nearby hill) who play in the Midland Football League. The Perkins social club is also located in Sundorne, which is home of Perkins CCC, a local cricket side.

Public transport
Different areas of the suburb are served by various bus routes, all of which are operated by Arriva Midland North. The 24 route runs between the Tesco store in Harlescott and Shrewsbury bus station via Shrewsbury railway station. The 519 and 524 services run between Shrewsbury bus station and Newport.

Sundorne Castle
Nearby are the remains of the stately home known as Sundorne Castle, at onetime a seat of the Corbet-Pigott family.

Email fraud

Email fraud (or email scam) is intentional deception for either personal gain or to damage another individual using email as the vehicle. Almost as soon as email became widely used, it began to be used as a means to defraud people, just as telephony and paper mail were used by previous generations.

Email fraud can take the form of a confidence trick ("con game", "scam", etc.). Some confidence tricks tend to exploit the inherent greed and dishonesty of its victims. The prospect of a 'bargain' or 'something for nothing' can be very tempting. Email fraud, as with other "bunco schemes", usually targets naïve individuals who put their confidence in schemes to get rich quickly. These include 'too good to be true' investments or offers to sell popular items at 'impossibly low' prices.

Another form of email fraud is an impersonation technique known as email spoofing: the recipient is misled by falsified origin information (From:) into making an anticipated payment into the fraudster's account rather than the correct one. The method is known as phishing or spear phishing: 'phishing' involves sending thousands of emails claiming, for example, that an account has been compromised; 'spear phishing' typically involves targeted and personalized emails or messages designed to deceive specific individuals or organizations into revealing sensitive information or performing malicious actions.

Spoofing
Email sent from someone pretending to be someone else is known as spoofing. Spoofing may take place in a number of ways. Common to all of them is that the actual sender's name and the origin of the message are concealed or masked from the recipient. Many instances of email fraud use at least spoofing, and as most frauds are clearly criminal acts, criminals typically try to avoid easy traceability.

Phishing
Phishing is a type of social engineering where an attacker sends a fraudulent (e.g., spoofed, fake, or otherwise deceptive) message designed to trick a person into revealing sensitive information to the attacker or to deploy malicious software on the victim's infrastructure such as ransomware. Some spoof messages purport to be from an existing company, perhaps one with which the intended victim already has a business relationship. The 'bait' in this instance may appear to be a message from "the fraud department" of, for example, the victim's bank, which asks the customer to: "confirm their information"; "log in to their account"; "create a new password", or similar requests. Instead of being directed to the website they trust, they are referred to an identical looking page with a different URL.

After entering their log-in details, their username and password is visible to the perpetrators. In many cases, phishing emails can appear to be benign - for example, a message prompting the receiver that they have a new friend request on a social media platform. Regardless of how innocent the message is in itself, it will always lead the victim to an imitation web page and false log-in prompt.

In a study, researchers concluded that cognitive reflection and sensation-seeking tendencies are modest but significant predictors of susceptibility to phishing. Additionally, participants who were pressured to make quick email legitimacy judgments made more errors.

Bogus offers
Email solicitations to purchase goods or services may be instances of attempted fraud. The fraudulent offer typically features a popular item or service, at a drastically reduced price.

Items may be offered in advance of their actual availability. For instance, the latest video game may be offered prior to its release, but at a similar price to a normal sale. In this case, the "greed factor" is the desire to get something that nobody else has, and before everyone else can get it, rather than a reduction in price. Of course, the item is never delivered, as it was not a legitimate offer in the first place.

Such an offer may even be no more than a phishing attempt to obtain the victim's credit card information, with the intent of using the information to fraudulently obtain goods or services, paid for by the hapless victim, who may not know they were scammed until their credit card has been "used up."

Requests for help
The "request for help" type of email fraud takes this form: an email is sent requesting help in some way. However, a reward is included for this help, which acts as a "hook". The reward may be a large amount of money, a treasure, or some artifact of supposedly great value.

This type of scam has existed at least since the Renaissance, known as the "Spanish Prisoner" or "Turkish Prisoner" scam. In its original form, this scheme has the con man purport to be in correspondence with a wealthy person who has been imprisoned under a false identity and is relying on the confidence artist to raise money to secure his release. The con man tells the "mark" (victim) that he is "allowed" to supply money, for which he should expect a generous reward when the prisoner returns. The confidence artist claims to have chosen the victim for their reputation for honesty.

Other

 * Business email compromise is a class of email fraud where employees with privileged access (such as to company finances) are deceived into making invalid payments or installing ransomware
 * Advance-fee scam: Among the variations on this type of scam, are the Nigerian Letter also called the 419 fraud, Nigerian scam, Nigerian bank scam, or Nigerian money offer. The Nigerian Senate emblem is sometimes used in this scam.
 * Lottery scam: The intended victim is often told their name or email address was selected through a random computer ballot and sponsored by a marketing company. In order to claim their so-called winnings, the victim is asked to provide their bank account details and other personal information. The victim is asked to contact the claims agent or award department.
 * FBI email: Claim to be an “official order” from the FBI’s Anti-Terrorist and Monetary Crimes Division, from an alleged FBI unit in Nigeria, confirm an inheritance, or contain a lottery notification, all informing recipients they have been named the beneficiary of millions of dollars.
 * Hitman: An email is sent to the victim's inbox, supposedly from a hitman who has been hired by a "close friend" of the recipient to kill him or her but will call off the hit in exchange for a large sum of money. This is usually backed up with a warning that if the victim informs local police or the FBI, the "hitman" will be forced to go through with the plan. This is less an advance-fee fraud and more outright extortion, but a reward can sometimes be offered in the form of the "hitman" offering to kill the man who ordered the original hit on the victim.
 * Investment schemes: Emails touting investments that promise high rates of return with little or no risk. One version seeks investors to help form an offshore bank. The Fifth Third Bank brand, name, and logo have been frequently exploited in this scam. The computer security company McAfee reports that, at the beginning of September 2006, over 33% of phishing scam emails being reported to McAfee were using Fifth Third Bank's brand.
 * Romance scam: Usually this scam begins at an online dating site, and is quickly moved to personal email, online chat room, or social media site. Under this form, fraudsters (pretended males or females) build online relationships, and after some time, they ask for money from the victims. They claim the money is needed due to the fact they have lost their money (or their luggage was stolen), they have been beaten or otherwise harmed and they need to get out of the country to fly to the victim's country.
 * Dating extortion scam: After baiting an individual into intimate conversations, they are told to pay unless they want their conversations posted online and they are named a cheater. There are no reports from the FBI that indicate that the records are actually removed once payment has been made.
 * Online business directory: Typically offering a free subscription to a non-existent directory with hefty fees for maintenance in the fine print.
 * Death certificate scam: Person will get an obituary off Internet. Find out relatives related. Get their emails. Contact them with fake story of another family member near death, which of course, is only told in ambiguous language. It originates out of Ethiopia with the "makelawi" tag in the email, but it can have de (German free email tag) along with it.
 * Marriage agency scam: Pretending to be translation agency or marriage agency, they do not actually translate emails nor connect to real brides, but fabricate emails and create fake profiles on dating sites. They can use pictures of real people from other websites. Typically they are aimed at foreign men looking for brides from the former Soviet countries. When a victim is engaged, they ask for communication expenses such as translations, voice phone calls, video calls, "agency fees". They impersonate the brides instead of providing a matchmaking service to them. The real ladies may not be aware that someone is using their identity.
 * Secret shopper: The intended victim is solicited via email to work as a 'secret shopper', often after the victim's resume has been posted at a job search site. Once engaged, the victim is sent a counterfeit check along with instructions and forms for work as a secret shopper. The provided instructions typically are to make several small transactions at nearby businesses, recording their experience on an official looking form. Universally is the instruction for the victim to also create a significant wire transfer, with a request to rate the experience. The counterfeit check is cashed at the unsuspecting victim's financial institution in order to accomplish the listed tasks.
 * Traffic ticket spam: Fraudulent emails claiming the recipient had been issued a traffic ticket. The spam, which spoofed a nyc.gov email address, claimed to be from the New York State Police (NYSP).
 * Word of Mouth: This type of email spam states that an anonymous person posted a secret about the recipient and that he needs to pay a fee in order to see the message.
 * Job Scams: The victim is seeking a job and posts a resume on any internet job site. The scammer spots the resume and sends the victim an email claiming to be a legitimate job listing service, and claiming to have a client who is looking for an employee with their skills and experience. The victim is invited to click on a link to apply for the job. Clicking the link takes the victim to a job description specifically written for the skills and experience on the victim's resume, and provides a very high salary, and invites them to "click here" to apply for the job. If the victim clicks on that "apply" link, they are taken to an "application" form that asks for the normal job application information, PLUS the victim's social security number, date of birth, the name of the bank and account number where they will want their paycheck to be deposited to, a "relative" reference, etc. With this information, the scammer can open up a bank account in any on-line bank and utilize the victim's credit to buy items online and ship them to associates who are in on the scam.
 * PayPal scam: Fraudulent emails claiming the victim has been issued a payment to his/her account, however processing will be complete once the victim has sent the item he/she is selling to the individuals address. This scam is mostly common in selling items to individuals abroad.
 * Counterfeit Invoice Ploy: You get an email with an invoice claiming you owe money for a product or service you never ordered. The email looks legitimate and includes the official logo of the business or school. Opening the attachment can potentially infect your computer with malware.
 * Gift Card Scam: Someone has hacked into your close friend's email account, and you get a message from them asking for help buying gift cards. Kind-hearted people who are quick to help often fall victim to this scam.

Avoiding email fraud
Due to the widespread use of web bugs in email, simply opening an email can potentially alert the sender that the address to which the email is sent is a valid address. This can also happen when the mail is 'reported' as spam, in some cases: if the email is forwarded for inspection, and opened, the sender will be notified in the same way as if the addressee opened it.

Email fraud may be avoided by:
 * Not responding to suspicious emails.
 * Keeping one's email address as secret as possible.
 * Using a spam filter.
 * Noticing the several spelling errors in the body of the "official looking" email.
 * Ignoring unsolicited emails of all types and deleting them.
 * Not clicking on links.
 * Not opening unexpected attachments, even if they appear to be from someone the user trusts. Many email fraudsters attach viruses or malware to emails.
 * Ignoring offers from unknown sources. The contents of an email are not a formal or binding agreement.

Many frauds go unreported to authorities, due to feelings of shame, guilt, or embarrassment.

Harlescott

Harlescott is a suburb of the town of Shrewsbury, county town of Shropshire. It is one of the most industrial parts of the town, and is the 5th most deprived ward in non-metropolitan Shropshire  Neighbouring suburbs include Sundorne to the east and Ditherington to the south. Note that many locals, particularly those born before about 1985, use the term "Harlescott" to refer to a wider area than the council ward, including much of what is officially "Sundorne" (to the east of Whitechurch and Battlefield Roads) and also much of the Heathgates and Mount Pleasant areas (sometimes called "Heath Farm").

History and Topography
The centre of the area contains the remains of a moated settlement, probably the original Harlescott Grange. The earthwork and buried remains of the medieval moated site are situated on a gentle north east facing slope. It is now surrounded by a modern housing estate, but from this location there would originally have been extensive views of the surrounding area. The moat is now visible as a slight earthwork having been drained in 1950 and largely infilled following the construction of the housing estate. The arms of the moat, which survive as buried features, are between 12m and 15m wide and define a rectangular island approximately 40m by 46m. Material excavated from the moat has been used to raise the surface of the island between 1.2m and 2m above the level of the surrounding ground. An account of the site in 1937 indicated that the sides of the moat were lined with masonry and when the moat was drained, 13th century pottery was found. Sherds of medieval pottery were also found when a small-scale archaeological excavation was conducted in 1960.

There was once a military supply depot here, RAF Harlescott, but this has closed and the nearest RAF base is now a few miles away at Shawbury. Harlescott was also once a fairly notable railway centre, but now all the sidings have gone. Only the Welsh Marches Line itself and Harlescott Crossing remain.

Shrewsbury's livestock market was at Harlescott (between 1956 and 2006  - it is now at a new site out-of-town at Battlefield) to the north. The site has been redeveloped with a Tesco supermarket. Next door there is a Park and Ride car park. Every Sunday, when there are no Park and Ride buses, an open-air market is held at this site.

Harlescott has been the location of the Arriva Midlands Shrewsbury bus depot since 2012, with the newly built depot (behind the Park and Ride site by Tesco) replacing the former Midland Red / Arriva Midlands depot in Ditherington, which was then demolished.

There were four bank branches nearby on Harlescott Lane, two of which are now closed. There were plans in 2011 to expand the Tesco, including new units to accommodate the banks. However, these plans never came into place and the units are now housing a Greggs and a barber.

There are two pubs in Harlescott, one called The Anchor Inn and the other Harry Hotspur. The latter is named after Harry Hotspur, who fought at the Battle of Shrewsbury, which took place in what is now Battlefield. ("The Coracle", Sundorne Road, "The Heathgates" on the Heathgates island, and "The Steam Wagon" on Mount Pleasant Road are also in Harlescott according to the wider definition, see above). Another pub, The Harlescott, recently closed and was later set alight by arsonists. It has now been demolished and a new supermarket (Lidl) has been built on the site. Recently, there has been significant retail development around Harlescott, including a newly built public house called The Featherbed and owned by Marston's Breweries. A Frankie & Benny's restaurant, alongside a Chiquitos, KFC and Subway have also recently opened.

Education
Harlescott's Secondary school was The Grange School, an 11 to 16 co-educational secondary school. It amalgamated with Sundorne School in 2016 into a split-site school known as Shrewsbury Academy.

Tanjung Priok

Tanjung Priok is a district in the administrative city of North Jakarta, Indonesia. It hosts the western part of the city's main harbor, the Port of Tanjung Priok (located in Tanjung Priok District and Koja District). The district of Tanjung Priok is bounded by Laksamana Yos Sudarso Tollway and Sunter River canal to the east, by Kali Japat, Kali Ancol, and the former Kemayoran Airport to the southwest, by Sunter Jaya Road and Sunter Kemayoran Road to the south, and by Jakarta Bay to the north.

History

Before human development, the coastal area of what is now Tanjung Priok was an area of brackish water with swamp and mangrove forest.

The old harbor of Jakarta
During the colonial era, Batavia at first relied on the Sunda Kelapa harbor area. This meant that Batavia had a harbor system like many others cities. I.e. an anchorage at sea at some distance from the city, and a city harbor where smaller ships could attach to a quay. It meant that big ships like the Dutch East Indiamen and later ships safely anchored at some distance from Batavia, at what was called the 'harbor' of Batavia. Passengers and cargo then had to be trans-loaded on smaller ships, that would actually land these on one of the quays of Batavia.

The 'outer harbor' situation of Batavia became problematic when the natural harbor of Singapore became a competitor. In Singapore ocean-going ships could directly attach to a quay. The effect was that for many Dutch East-Indian commodities, it was cheaper to ship via the more distant harbor of Singapore. (At Batavia, a sea going ship from e.g. Surabaya, would have to unload its cargo into boats that sailed to a quay in Batavia proper. Later these boats would have to be used again to load the cargo into a ship to the Netherlands. The same ship could sail to Singapore, and directly unload at a quay. This eliminated the step to transload on boats.)

Plans for the new harbor
The goal of the Tanjung Priok harbor plans was to create a harbor where ocean-going ships could attach to a quay. The increased traffic which resulted from the opening of the Suez Canal contributed to these plans, but the rationale centered on eliminating the need for trans-loading. The effect would be that commodities produced in the Dutch East Indies could be brought to the Batavia warehouses more cheaply. This would put Batavia, and Dutch ships at a more equal foot to Singapore and English ships. In turn, scale effects, i.e. regular supply of cargo, would further redress the balance for Dutch shipping.

Construction of the harbor
The construction of the new harbor was started in 1877 by Governor General Johan Wilhelm van Lansberge (1875–1881). The new harbor was named Tandjong Priok. The construction of the harbor was a major project.

Several facilities were built to support the function of the new harbor. Repair facilities were provided by Tanjung Priok Dock of 4,000 tons. A railway connection was established by building Tanjung Priuk Station (1914) and connecting it to the existing rail network.

Spelling
Tanjung Priok is variously spelled in history as "Tandjong Priok", "Tandjoeng Priok" or "Tanjon Preeq".

Riots
Tanjung Priok was the site of a widely publicized incident on September 12, 1984, when army forces fired on a group of Muslim protesters. The protesters were demonstrating against proposed government regulations that would require all formal organisations in the country to adopt Pancasila as their ideology. There were conflicting reports about the total death toll, but most sources indicate that several hundred protesters were killed. After the fall of Suharto the case was taken up again, and in 2003 fourteen people, among them a former commander of the Kopassus special forces unit, were named as suspects in the 1984 killings.

Administrative villages (kelurahan)
The district of Tanjung Priok is divided into seven kelurahan or subdistricts:

Important places
On November 20, 2011, the Jakarta administration inaugurated the city's first railways tourism package aimed at attracting more tourists and reducing traffic congestion from Gambir railway station to the Tanjung Priuk railway station.

Further comments should be made on the article's talk page rather than here so that this page is preserved as an historic record. The result of the debate was KEEP. 11 votes to delete. Nominator's vote was ambiguous, but impliedly delete. Block votes were ignored. Postdlf 21:48, 27 Oct 2004 (UTC)

Malvern Preparatory School
This is fairly well-written (best of the batch), but is it notable enough? What do you think? Mandel 18:28, Oct 20, 2004 (UTC) Analysis of an article:
 * Obviously I'm voting keep, although I'm probably a bit biased ;). However, I can promise that I'll be expanding the article a bit more over the next few days, especially over the weekend when I have more time to write. --Goobergunch 23:15, 20 Oct 2004 (UTC)
 * Keep. This is the best of the batch, and I appreciate your honest assesment, Mandel. Has alumni and good history. The only thing that worries me about this article are the deadlinks to possibly non-notable schools. Deadlinks encourage creation, and we should be cautious about that. Good article in its own right though. Cool Hand Luke (Communicate!)  07:45, 21 Oct 2004 (UTC)
 * Hmm, the alumni are an actor, a baseball player, and someone married to a politician. I'm not that impressed by the list. It looks like a well-written and balanced article, though, and does include one news related fact. I'm borderline either way on this one. Average Earthman 08:24, 21 Oct 2004 (UTC)
 * Keep. -- Necrothesp 13:32, 21 Oct 2004 (UTC)
 * Keep. Excellent article; establishes notability. Ambi 13:50, 21 Oct 2004 (UTC)
 * Yet again we have ot put up with non-notable crap just because someone thinks the article is well-written. See below Chris 02:47, 23 Oct 2004 (UTC)
 * Keep. The person or persons responsible for this article deserve to be given cookies as a reward for actually making an honest atempt to establish notability. [[User:Aranel|Aranel ("Sarah")]] 01:03, 22 Oct 2004 (UTC)
 * Count in 3 more delete votes from Improv, WOT and Vina. See above. Mandel 09:07, Oct 22, 2004 (UTC)
 * I don't think so. If they can't be bothered to vote individually on each article's merits then I definitely don't think we should accept their votes. Stop this ludicrous campaign against school articles just because they're school articles. Some are worth keeping, some aren't. This one is. -- Necrothesp 00:44, 23 Oct 2004 (UTC)
 * This is not a witch-hunt. I have kept a lot of school articles that establishes notability in their write-up, but IMO, this one, though lengthier and written in better prose, still fails to establish notability. Mandel 08:09, Oct 23, 2004 (UTC)
 * Fine. You have voted individually. I have no problem with that (although I don't happen to agree with you). But those other three have not. This suggests that they could not be bothered to read the article in question and respond to it on its own merits and have indeed voted on its title only, which does make it seem like a 'witch-hunt', as you put it. If this is not the case then they should be voting on this section, not collectively in an unrelated section. I don't think that's acceptable. -- Necrothesp 11:54, 23 Oct 2004 (UTC)
 * No, these cannot be counted. Please only vote for yourself.  RickK 23:57, Oct 23, 2004 (UTC)
 * Also count in 21 more keep votes from 207.189.98.44, theresa knott, Camembert, Gentgeen, Penfold, Imran, Guaka, Andres, Catherine, Ambivalenthysteria, Dpbsmith, TB, Oldak Quill, Improv, Neutrality, Jamesday, Martin, TMC1221, Johnleemk, ALargeElk, and AAAAA. See Wikipedia_talk:Deletion_policy/schools. anthony (see warning) 23:31, 23 Oct 2004 (UTC)
 * No, these cannot be counted. Please only vote for yourself.  RickK 23:57, Oct 23, 2004 (UTC)
 * Agree with Rick. Anthony cannot vote for other people in this way. Theresa Knott (Not the skater) 18:41, 24 Oct 2004 (UTC)
 * Do you likewise agree with Rick that Mandel can't vote for other people in this way? anthony 警告 20:23, 24 Oct 2004 (UTC)
 * Yes I do. Block voting for other people isn't on. Theresa Knott (Not the skater) 20:37, 24 Oct 2004 (UTC)
 * It would be usefr ato be ablet o register that you want to vote for any school that is listed solely for being 'non-notable' without having to troll through 30 or so a day. 207.189.98.44 20:46, 25 Oct 2004 (UTC)
 * para. 1 - the basics. Always a good start, but not an article by themselves.
 * "History" TBH, this could be any school in any community.  Nothing in here sets it apart from other schools around the world.
 * "Priest abuse" Ugh.  Does this belong here?  I think not - there should be many better places for this.  Otherwise it's veiled attempt at saying "Don't send your kids here, they might get raped."
 * Notable alumni - an old bone of contention, but that list certainly isn't impressive, and definitely is not a source of notability. David's best mates and family aren't notable in themselves, so why should this school be?
 * School year - fairly standard. In countries with real education systems, term dates are fixed, so this is entirely moot.
 * Athletics - "Malvern boasts a strong athletic program, with 16 varsity sports." ... and?  SFW?
 * ACtivities - "Malvern offers 21 extracurricular activities." Yet again, SFW?
 * The robotics part certainly doesn't establish anything notable - simply having a robotics club or society isn't a notable achievement. Having the first ever schools robotics club ever in the world ever might be, but nothing in what was said here is notable in the slightest.

So, in summary, what on this page establishes the school as notable? Sweet FA. Delete Chris 02:47, 23 Oct 2004 (UTC)
 * Notablility is not relevant. Mark Richards 17:10, 25 Oct 2004 (UTC)

 * Keep. It establishes some minor notable aspects of the school. However, the academics and activities sections should be dumped.  Most schools have AP classes and extracurricular activities.  Who cares? Gamaliel 05:41, 23 Oct 2004 (UTC)
 * It establishes some minor notable aspects of the school. Name them please. Chris 18:29, 23 Oct 2004 (UTC)
 * The revolutionary war battlefield and the notable alumni. Gamaliel 18:58, 23 Oct 2004 (UTC)
 * The school is not notable for its alumni, unless they have contributed to their notability. Same goes for the battlefield - it might be notable, but it doesn't make things sited on it notable by association.  Next! Chris 19:04, 23 Oct 2004
 * I surrender. Congratulations on your victory over the Malvern Preparatory School. Gamaliel 19:12, 23 Oct 2004 (UTC)
 * Keep. [[User:Neutrality|Neutrality (hopefully!)]] 00:01, Oct 24, 2004 (UTC)
 * Keep. School. anthony (see warning) 00:57, 24 Oct 2004 (UTC)
 * keep; almost encyclopedic, appears to be notable on a local level. Appears verifiable.  The abuse by a priest is notable because it happens in a school. Mozzerati 15:00, 2004 Oct 24 (UTC)
 * Keep - factual, verifiable entry. Mark Richards 17:10, 25 Oct 2004 (UTC)
 * Keep. Intrigue 21:10, 25 Oct 2004 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Cheraw Primary School

Cheraw Primary School was proposed for deletion. This page is an archive of the discussion about the proposed deletion. This page is no longer live. Further comments should be made on the article's talk page rather than here so that this page is preserved as an historic record. The result of the debate was DELETE. 8 votes to delete, 4 votes to keep. Block votes were ignored. Postdlf 21:51, 27 Oct 2004 (UTC)

Cheraw Primary School
Substub. Delete in my view. Mandel 18:29, Oct 20, 2004 (UTC)

 * Delete, non-notable school. Fire Star 22:56, 20 Oct 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete: Nearly a speedy delete as a substub, except that it could be expanded. Notability, however, is simply not there.  BTW, if people want to talk about a "XXXX School Project," why not a list article?  A list would contain all the information plastered across 100 insignificant entries. Geogre 01:57, 21 Oct 2004 (UTC)
 * Incidentally, Dizzy Gilespie is from Cheraw, SC, but he is very unlikely to have attended this school, as he went to school in the days of segregation. I don't know of any other famous people from Cheraw.  Having driven through it a few times, it has been left behind by the interstates.  Geogre 04:07, 22 Oct 2004 (UTC)

(see warning) 00:50, 24 Oct 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete. Stub that fails to establish or even suggest notability. Average Earthman 08:22, 21 Oct 2004 (UTC)
 * Count in 3 more delete votes from Improv, WOT and Vina. See above. Mandel 09:07, Oct 22, 2004 (UTC)
 * Also count in 21 more keep votes from 207.189.98.44, theresa knott, Camembert, Gentgeen, Penfold, Imran, Guaka, Andres, Catherine, Ambivalenthysteria, Dpbsmith, TB, Oldak Quill, Improv, Neutrality, Jamesday, Martin, TMC1221, Johnleemk, ALargeElk, and AAAAA. See Wikipedia_talk:Deletion_policy/schools. anthony (see warning) 23:31, 23 Oct 2004 (UTC)
 * Huh? I see what you're getting at, and I see that I put "keep if created, don't encourage creation" for a number of criteria, but I don't think this school meets any of them. Which one did you have in mind? [[User:Dpbsmith|Dpbsmith (talk)]] 23:57, 23 Oct 2004 (UTC)
 * "Any school about which we can write a non-trivial, non-stub, NPOV article." Regardless of whether or not this is a non-trivial, non-stub, NPOV article, certainly one can be written. Anyway, if we don't count the three proxy votes made by Mandel, then we don't have to count the 22 proxy votes made by me.  We should decide whether or not to allow proxy votes, because if we do I'll be setting up a proxy system whereby myself and several other inclusionists can vote for each other. anthony
 * Then forgo the votes by all means. Do you have to do such a childish tit-for-tat thing on a serious VfD page?  How old are you?  Are you taking Wikipedia for a spin as well?  Do you want to count in those delete votes from your stated page?  What difference is it from an edit war?
 * I did not vote on behalf of them, but is merely drawing attention that those three voted to delete all the subsequent 17 schools earlier. Whether the sysop who runs this page this bother to count in these votes is his or her choice.  Improv has categorically stated in my talk page to put these pages together for the sake of ease of voting.  Mandel 13:04, Oct 24, 2004 (UTC)

 * Do you have to do such a childish tit-for-tat thing on a serious VfD page? No, I just want to make sure that any admin who counts those delete votes will also count these keep votes.  But calling this VfD page serious.  I think you're stretching things.  Do you really think it makes much of a difference in anyone's life whether or not this page is deleted?  Do you want to count in those delete votes from your stated page?  I'd rather we count no delete votes, but counting delete votes from that page would be perfectly acceptable.  What difference is it from an edit war? There's no war.  It's merely two people expressing their opinions in a civilized manner.  I did not vote on behalf of them, but is merely drawing attention that those three voted to delete all the subsequent 17 schools earlier.  And I am merely drawing attention that those 21 people voted to keep all schools of this type earlier.  Whether the sysop who runs this page this bother to count in these votes is his or her choice.  Improv has categorically stated in my talk page to put these pages together for the sake of ease of voting.  Good.  I hope he counts the 21 keep votes too, for the sake of ease of voting, of course.  I hope he counts my vote right now to Keep all pages about schools or people or companies or bands, for the sake of ease of voting, of course.  anthony (see warning) 14:49, 24 Oct 2004 (UTC)
 * There's a difference between allowing a category in Wikipedia and allowing every single article on that category to stay. Those Wikis merely voted to allow school articles.  Right now Wikipedia allows biographical entries, but does it mean if the person is not notable it won't be deleted? How about adding my granddad into Wikipedia?  Good luck to you anyway.  Mandel 19:26, Oct 24, 2004 (UTC)
 * Their vote said "Keep [articles about schools which can become more than a trivial stub] if created". That seems to me to be much more than simply allowing school artiles.  It seems to me that they voted to keep those articles if they are created. anthony 警告 20:20, 24 Oct 2004 (UTC)
 * Keep. School. anthony (see warning) 00:51, 24 Oct 2004 (UTC)
 * "School", in and of itself, is not sufficient reason to keep. Bearcat 21:23, 24 Oct 2004 (UTC)
 * D Normally, I'd say "having a name and an address does not make it notable", but this one doesn't even have an address. Chris 02:48, 23 Oct 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete, no potential to become encyclopedic. Would not object to merge-and-redirect with Cheraw, South Carolina. [[User:Dpbsmith|Dpbsmith (talk)]] 17:49, 23 Oct 2004 (UTC)
 * Keep. Guanaco 00:04, 24 Oct 2004 (UTC)
 * Spot the alumnus. Chris 01:18, 24 Oct 2004 (UTC)
 * Keep - factual, verifiable entry. Mark Richards 17:11, 25 Oct 2004 (UTC)
 * Keep this. Schools are notable. Notability is not a deletion criteria. Please stop deletion trolls. Intrigue 21:05, 25 Oct 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete. Schools are not notable just because they exist.  If that were true, we should have an entry for every building in the world.  Besides, this is hardly encyclopedic, which is a criteria. Indrian 20:54, Oct 25, 2004 (UTC)
 * As noted, notability is not a deletion reason. Also, they are notable. If you want to write an article on a building that is factual and verifiable, then please do. Intrigue 21:11, 25 Oct 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete, Notability is a deletion reason, it falls under the category of "not encyclopedic". Schools are not notable.  If I write an article on a house in my community and put in it's color, who lived there, and who's buying it, is it encyclopedic?  According to you, yes, because it is factual and verifiable.  But you would be wrong, for the sole reason that it is NOT notable.  Again, as has been repeatedly mentioned, is the article so generic that it basically applies to most primary schools?  Does it do something to stand out? -Vina 23:44, 25 Oct 2004 (UTC)

Liternum

Liternum was an ancient town of Campania, southern central Italy, near "Patria lake", on the low sandy coast between Cumae and the mouth of the Volturnus. It was probably once dependent on Cumae. In 194 BC it became a Roman colony. Although Livy records that the town was unsuccessful, excavation reveals a Roman town existed there until the 4th century AD.

History
The town is mainly famous as the residence of the elder Scipio Africanus, who withdrew from Rome and died there. His tomb and villa are described by Seneca the Younger in his Moral Letters to Lucilius. In letter LXXXVI, Seneca describes the villa as being built with squared stone blocks with towers on both sides.

In Ovid's Metamorphoses Liternum is mentioned for its mastic trees: lentisciferum... Liternum. Augustus Caesar is said to have conducted a colony of veterans to Liternum. The construction of the Via Domitiana through Liternum made it a posting station, but the town later had a malaria outbreak and went into decline. In 455, the town was pillaged and destroyed by Genseric, king of the Vandals.

Excavations between 1930 and 1936 brought to light some elements of the city center (forum with a temple, a basilica and a small theater) dating from the beginning of the Roman Empire. Outside the city walls, the remains of the amphitheater and the necropolis have been identified.

University of Pennsylvania Glee Club

Founded in 1862, the University of Pennsylvania Glee Club (Penn Glee Club) is one of the oldest continually running glee clubs in the United States and the oldest performing arts group at the University of Pennsylvania. The Club draws its singing members from the undergraduate and graduate populations of the University of Pennsylvania; individuals from the Penn community are also called upon to fill roles in the band and technical staff when the Club puts on theatrical productions. The club, known for its eclectic mix of Penn standards, Broadway classics, classical favorites, and pop hits, has traveled to over 40 countries and territories on five continents. After directing the Glee Club for 44 years, Bruce Montgomery stepped down as director in 2000 and was replaced by former Glee Club member C. Erik Nordgren. After 15 years of dedicated service to the group, Nordgren stepped down and was succeeded by Joshua Glassman. After three years at the podium Joshua Glassman stepped down, passing the baton to Club alumnus Daniel Carsello. As of April 9, 2021, the Penn Glee Club accepts singers of all genders.

History
The Glee Club's history began modestly in 1862 when eight undergraduate men formed what is now the oldest performing arts group at the University of Pennsylvania; subsequently, another eight men were added to the group. The Glee Club's premiere performance was in the chapel of Collegiate Hall at Ninth & Chestnut Streets in Philadelphia for "an audience that was unusually select and large, the Hall filled to its utmost capacity". At this concert, each man wore red and blue ribbons in his buttonhole, thus becoming the first known Penn group to wear the university colors as part of its uniform.

The Glee Club quickly became a part of campus life, singing at football rallies, basketball games, alumni events, and chapel services. Soon, much of the university's musical demands depended upon the Glee Club. As a result, the reliance on such traditional collegiate songs such as Gaudeamus Igitur and Integer Vitae gave way to original pieces composed especially for the university and the Glee Club which themselves became traditions: "The Red and Blue," "Afterglow," and "Fight On, Pennsylvania."

The Glee Club began to have more of a regional and national presence in the early decades of the Twentieth Century. In 1910, it embarked on a brief tour of the New England states. In 1915, the club sang at the U.S. Naval Academy. In 1926, the Glee Club performed for President Calvin Coolidge in the White House. In 1928, listeners could hear the club as far west as Nebraska in a broadcast publicizing the newly formed CBS Radio Network.

In 1934, under director Harl McDonald, the Penn Glee Club began performing with the Philadelphia Orchestra. The club's partnership with this symphony came to include a 1938 performance of the Brahms' Alto Rhapsody with Marian Anderson and the 1970 world premiere broadcast of then-Director Bruce 'Monty' Montgomery's Herodotus Fragments. The 1950s saw the first of many Glee Club appearances on national television with such celebrities as Ed McMahon and Carol Lawrence. The club has been showcased on television specials, in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, and at professional sporting events. The Philadelphia Phillies had the Club sing the National Anthem at the 1993 National League Championship Series. In 1976, the Penn Glee Club first performed with the Boston Pops. The club has also shared the stage with such superstars as Bob Hope, Frank Sinatra, Jimmy Stewart, and Grace Kelly.

The Penn Glee Club stepped out of the formal lines of choral performance in 1928, performing its first fully staged production, Hades, Inc., written by then-director H. Alexander Matthews. Staging became standard fare for the modern Club with 1969/1970's Handel With Hair. Each year, the Club writes and produces a fully staged, Broadway-style production, highlighting choral singing, clever plots and dialogue, dancing, humor, colorful sets and costumes, and a pit band.

The Penn Glee Club has toured internationally since 1959 and has traveled to nearly all 50 states in the United States and 37 nations and territories on five continents. Since its first performance at the White House for President Calvin Coolidge in 1926, the club has sung for numerous heads of state and world leaders. One of the highlights of 1989 was the club's performance for Polish President Lech Wałęsa. In 1999, several prominent Japanese executives sponsored a tour to Guam and Japan, the club's first tour of the Asian Pacific. In 2004, the Club returned to Asia, this time touring China, Hong Kong, Taiwan and Singapore. The following year, in 2005, the Club journeyed back to South America for the first time since 1987, touring Argentina and Uruguay. The 2006–2007 season saw the group traveling to Ireland and Northern Ireland for the first time. In the summer of 2009, the Club toured Colombia, Panama, and Costa Rica.

In 2021, following several years of discussion and nearly a year of careful deliberation, the Penn Glee Club voted to merge with its sister group, the Penn Sirens, and to remove the gender restriction on singing membership. The club now features an SATB choir, SSAA and TTBB chamber choirs, and two student-run a cappella groups, the Penn Pipers and Penn Sirens.

The Penn Pipers
The Penn Pipers, a subset of the Glee Club, formed in 1950, making it by far the oldest existing a cappella group at the University of Pennsylvania. Its founding student leaders created unique arrangements emulating the close, contemporary harmonies of a popular, jazz-oriented quartet called The Hi-Los. The Pipers' most popular tune of the time—a lush setting of Brahm's Lullaby arranged by member Bill Tost—became its standard closing number for many years. The group has always been a subset of the University of Pennsylvania Glee Club and serves as an opportunity for some of the Glee Club's singers to perform music of a lighter and more popular style.

The group performs barbershop music and doo-wop. Its current repertoire encompasses popular music from the 1890s through to the present day.

The Penn Glee Club Band

Marilyn Lloyd

Rachel Marilyn Lloyd (née Laird; January 3, 1929 – September 19, 2018) was an American politician and businesswoman who served ten terms in the United States House of Representatives from 1975 until 1995.

Education and personal life
Laird was born in Fort Smith, Arkansas in 1929, the daughter of a Church of Christ pastor. She graduated from Western Kentucky College High School, a high school that associated with what is now Western Kentucky University, in Bowling Green, Kentucky, in 1945. She attended Shorter College in Rome, Georgia. She owned radio station WTTI in Dalton, Georgia, and Executive Aviation in Winchester, Tennessee.

Her first husband was Dr. Robert Earl Davison, a dentist in Trion, Georgia. After Davison's death in 1960, she married Chattanooga TV news anchor Mort Lloyd in 1963. He died in an airplane crash in 1974. In 1978, she married engineer Joseph P. Bouquard. In 1983, the couple divorced, and she resumed using the name Marilyn Lloyd. In 1991, she married Robert Fowler, a physician, who also predeceased her. Lloyd had three daughters from her marriage to Davison, and a son from her marriage to Lloyd.

Political and congressional career
Mort Lloyd was a popular television anchor at WDEF-TV in Chattanooga, who had entered the 1974 Democratic primary for Tennessee's 3rd congressional district, to oppose two-term incumbent Republican Congressman LaMar Baker. Lloyd had won the primary in the Chattanooga-based district on August 1, but he was killed in an airplane crash on August 20 while flying to visit his parents, and the Democratic Party selected his widow to replace him on the ballot. She went on to defeat Baker in the General Election in November. That election saw many Republicans, in competitive and marginal districts, defeated, in large part because of the Watergate scandal. Lloyd was a moderate-to-conservative Democrat, receiving a score of 53% from the American Conservative Union.

Congress
She became the first woman ever elected to Congress from Tennessee for a full term. Willa Eslick, Louise Reece, and Irene Baker were all elected in special elections to succeed their husbands as caretakers and did not run for a full term in the next election. Lloyd was considered a conservative Democrat by national standards, but a moderate by Tennessee standards. She often broke with the Democratic Party's national leadership, her views reflecting those of her conservative-minded district.

Lloyd served on the House Science Committee for her entire congressional career. That committee had jurisdiction over legislation related to nuclear weapons and research facilities at Oak Ridge in her district. By the time of her retirement from Congress, she was the second-ranking Democrat on the committee. She was a strong advocate for the Clinch River Breeder Reactor project in Oak Ridge. She also served on the Committee on Public Works (1975–87), on the Armed Services Committee (1983–95), and on the House Select Committee on Aging for much of her congressional career.

When women members of the House formed a Women's Caucus in 1977, Lloyd was one of three congresswomen who declined membership, presumably because she feared alienating her constituents. She later joined the caucus but resigned in 1980 over political disagreements. Lloyd cosponsored legislation related to women's health, notably the Mammography Quality Standards Act, which was enacted in 1992. After she was diagnosed with breast cancer in 1991 and was denied a silicone breast implant because the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) had removed them from the market, Lloyd became an advocate for breast cancer treatment and women's health. She advocated for the availability of breast implants for reconstructive surgery. Her fight with cancer led her to reverse her longstanding opposition to abortion; she announced on the floor of the House that having to fight to make decisions about her treatment "that should have been mine alone" led to her change of heart on the issue.

In 1992, her Republican opponent was real estate broker Zach Wamp. In one of the closest contests of her career, she only defeated Wamp by 2,900 votes (1%), and only then because of the withdrawal of underground environmental candidate Peter Melcher. Lloyd lost badly in Hamilton County, home to Chattanooga, and retained her seat only due to a strong showing in the Oak Ridge area. Despite Tennessee's Senator Al Gore being elected Vice President as Bill Clinton's running mate, the Clinton–Gore Democratic ticket won the 3rd District by only 39 votes out of 225,000 cast, one of their worst performances in the state. The closeness of the race is believed to have influenced her decision not to stand for an 11th term in 1994. She endorsed Wamp's bid for Congress that year, which may have contributed to his narrow victory. That election was one of only two times since Lloyd left office that the Democrats have cleared the 40 percent mark in the district.

Post-retirement and death
Subsequent to her retirement from Congress, Lloyd maintained a fairly low profile other than her advocacy for victims of domestic violence. The Marilyn Lloyd Environmental and Life Sciences Research Complex at Oak Ridge National Laboratory was named in her honor in 1999. Her Congressional papers are archived in the library of the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga.

Lloyd died on September 19, 2018, aged 89, at her home in Chattanooga, Tennessee, from an undisclosed reason.

A.E.I.O.U.

"A.E.I.O.U." (sometimes A.E.I.O.V.) was a symbolic device coined by Emperor Frederick III (1415–1493) and historically used as a motto by the Habsburgs. One note in his notebook (discovered in 1666), though not in the same hand, explains it in German and Latin as "All the world is subject to Austria" (Alles Erdreich ist Österreich untertan or Austriae est imperare orbi universo). Frederick habitually signed buildings such as Santa Maria dell'Anima in Rome, Burg Wiener Neustadt, or Graz Cathedral as well as his tableware and other objects with the vowel graphemes. A.E.I.O.U. is also the motto of the Theresian Military Academy, established in 1751. It can also be found on the wall of the Chancellor's office in the Federal Chancellery of Austria. The famous device is probably the most known motto of premodern times, because it has repeatedly been given new interpretations. Unraveling the mystery of what the AEIOU means is part of a centuries-long debate that is still ongoing today.

Recent research has shown that the Roman chancellery of Frederick III used the interpretation ''En amor electis iniustis ordinor ultor. Sic Fridericus ego mea iura rego'' as the official motto. This interpretation has also been shown to be the most commonly used variant in the 15th century. It was also supposed that the Austriae est imperare variants probably go back to Frederick's proto-notary Heinrich Leubing.

Interpretation
Frederick's first use of the five-letter monogram was in 1437, when he was Duke of Styria. One note in his notebook (discovered in 1666), though not in the same hand, explains it in German and Latin as "All the world is subject to Austria" (Alles Erdreich ist Österreich untertan or Austriae est imperare orbi universo).

Another passage, later in the same notebook, uses the letters in sequence as the initial letters of the words in the first line of a couplet poem, amor electis, iniustis ordinor ultor ("I am loved by the elect, for the unjust I am ordained an avenger"). This verse was probably adopted by Frederick from a poem by Nicolaus Petschacher of Znaim who worked as a court official in the 1440s.

Other interpretations have been put forth, including by contemporary heraldists. Several explanations proceed on the assumption that it was meant as a political slogan.
 * Austria est imperio optime unita ("Austria is best united by the Empire").
 * Austria erit in orbe ultima ("Austria will be supreme in the world", sometimes incorrectly given as "Austria will be the last (surviving) in the world").
 * Aquila electa iusta omnia vincit
 * Alle ere ist ob uns

Since Frederick wrote this acronym when he was not yet the ruler of the Archduchy of Austria and, at that time, Styria was entirely separated from Austria and was not considered to be its part until the next century, the term "Austria" in this context would not mean Austria as a territory or a nation, but rather the "House of Austria", that is, the Habsburg dynasty.

Many Latin and German interpretations have been attempted over the centuries; most of these versions refer to a motto of present-day Austria or the extensive Habsburg monarchy.

History
The company was founded in 1991 through the merger of Regional Ambulance (Alameda and Contra Costa counties, California), Vanguard Ambulance (Santa Clara County, California), and Buck Ambulance (Portland, Oregon). It was subsequently acquired by Laidlaw, and sold to Onex in 2004. With this acquisition, Onex formed Emergency Medical Services Corporation (EMSC) by merging AMR with EmCare. In 2011, EMSC was acquired by Clayton, Dubilier & Rice.

On June 12, 2013, EMSC changed its name to Envision Healthcare.

On September 8, 2017, Envision Healthcare announced that AMR would be sold to Kohlberg Kravis Roberts in a deal worth US$2.4 billion.

In March 2018, AMR became a subsidiary of Global Medical Response. Also in 2018, AMR was the main campaign contributor in support of California Proposition 11 (2018), a bill that modified California labor law to allow for EMS workers to be on-call during breaks.

 * Comment Personally, if someone were to put up a single article on schools in Ottawa—and given that what we seem to have for most of them is a couple of lines and a logo there would seem to be plenty of room—I wouldn't have a problem. In fact, collecting them together on a single page would, it seems to me, make it more likely that Ottawan contributors would discover the page and expand the sections on individual schools. Wouldn't it be pleasanter and faster to scroll through a single article than click and wait for separate articles to load? What is the advantage of a few dozen logo-decorated substubs versus a single article with short summary entries about individual schools? If the section on one school grew too big to fit, then it could be broken out into a separate article. [[User:Dpbsmith|Dpbsmith (talk)]] 02:08, 21 Oct 2004 (UTC)
 * Exactly. Many schools and the history of education in an area is more likely to be notable than the schools seperately. Therefore, I would vote to merge and redirect if a "Schools of Ottawa" page was created. Otherwise delete this particular stub. Cool Hand Luke (Communicate!)  07:51, 21 Oct 2004 (UTC)

Ahman Green

Ahman Rashad Green (born February 16, 1977) is an American former football running back who played 12 seasons in the National Football League (NFL). He played college football for the Nebraska Cornhuskers, earning second-team All-American honors in 1997. Green was selected by the Seattle Seahawks in the third round of the 1998 NFL draft, playing there for two seasons before being traded to the Green Bay Packers, with whom he played for eight of the next ten seasons. Green also played for the Houston Texans, and was a four-time Pro Bowl selection with the Packers, where he holds the franchise record for rushing yards. He was the head esports coach at Lakeland University until the end of 2022.

Early life
Green was born in Omaha, Nebraska, and attended Omaha North before transferring to Omaha Central for high school. He was a high school All-American selection and state 'Player of the Year' as a senior.

In addition to football, he also ran track and field. He currently holds the 10th fastest 100 meter dash ever in the state of Nebraska, at 10.61 seconds.

Green also competed in powerlifting in high school, placing 2nd in the ADFPA High School National Powerlifting Championships in Des Moines, Iowa.

College career
Green was a standout running back and three-year starter for the University of Nebraska Cornhuskers. He was an integral component and key contributor on two national championship squads.

Freshman (1995)
As a freshman, Green was perhaps overshadowed by his backfield mates running back Lawrence Phillips and quarterback Tommie Frazier. He was a major contributor during Nebraska's 1995 championship run. He rushed for 1,086 yards (still the school's single-season freshman rushing record) and 13 touchdowns on 141 carries (7.7 avg.) and was honored as a freshman All-America selection by Football News. In addition, he earned Big Eight all-conference and 'Freshman of the Year' honors.

Sophomore (1996)
As a sophomore in 1996, Green compiled a team-leading 917 yards on 155 carries and seven touchdowns, despite a turf toe injury. Green had a career-high 214 yards against Iowa State University that season.

Junior (1997)
As a junior, Green garnered All-Big 12 Conference recognition and was named second-team All-America by the Associated Press and The Sporting News as Nebraska again captured the national championship. He was a finalist for the Doak Walker Award, the annual honor for college football's top running back, in 1997. During that campaign he carried the ball 278 times for 1,877 yards (6.8 avg.) and 22 touchdowns (a school record for juniors). He posted 12 consecutive 100-yard games, including three contests with over 200 yards (he also had 99 yards on nine carries in the opener against Akron).

During his collegiate career, Green compiled 3,880 rushing yards and 42 touchdowns, both totals good for second place on the Cornhuskers' all-time list. He also posted 300 receiving yards and three touchdowns on 35 catches. One of Green's best collegiate performances came on January 2, 1998, in the Orange Bowl. He rushed for an Orange Bowl record 206 yards and two touchdowns in Nebraska's 42–17 victory over #3 Tennessee, breaking the previous 20-year-old record of 205 yards held by Arkansas running back Roland Sales. Green was also named the 1998 Orange Bowl MVP. The performance marked the Cornhuskers' record-setting third national championship in four years.

College statistics

Bowl games
Green played in a bowl game each season he was at Nebraska. In the 1996 Fiesta Bowl, he rushed for 68 yards and one touchdown. In the 1996 Orange Bowl (played at the end of the year), he rushed for 52 yards, and in the 1998 Orange Bowl, he rushed for 206 yards and two touchdowns.

Seattle Seahawks (1998-1999)
Green was drafted in the third round (76th overall) of the 1998 NFL draft by the Seattle Seahawks. Although Green produced a high rushing average (6.0 in 1998 and 4.6 in 1999) he had difficulty earning significant playing time behind established veteran Ricky Watters.

Green Bay Packers (2000-2006)
In 2000, Green was traded along with a fifth round draft pick to the Green Bay Packers for Fred Vinson and a sixth round pick. He was selected to the NFL Pro Bowl from 2001 to 2004 and broke several franchise records. From the time he joined the Packers in 2000 up through the end of the 2004 season, Green gained more yards from scrimmage (9,036) and rushing yards (6,848) than any other NFL player. Green's highest rushing touchdown per game total came in 2002, when he scored three in a 30-9 win versus the then-Washington Redskins. In 2003, he had his best year as a professional and set the Green Bay franchise record by running for 1,883 yards in the regular season, and three of his highest rushing yardage games came that season (218, 192, 176). That year, he became the first and only player in NFL history to record at least 1,850 rushing yards, average 5.0 yards per carry, score 20 touchdowns and catch 50 passes in one season. He threw a touchdown pass on October 17, 2004 vs. the Detroit Lions. During his time with the Packers, Green became one of two players in NFL history to have two touchdown runs of 90 or more yards (Bo Jackson is the other). Despite his injury-shortened 2005 season, the Packers re-signed Green to a one-year, $2 million contract, with an extra $3 million in incentives. After the 2006 season he became a free agent.

Houston Texans (2007-2008)
On March 4, 2007 Green signed a four-year, $23 million deal with the Houston Texans. He was reunited with his former head coach and former Texans' assistant head coach Mike Sherman along with former Packers running back Samkon Gado. He was asked to handle the bulk of the load at running back after a 2006 season in which the Texans used a "running back by committee" approach. Across his two seasons with the Texans, Green rushed 144 times for 554 yards and two touchdowns and also caught 25 passes for 155 yards.

On February 10, 2009, Green was released by the Texans.

Green Bay Packers (second stint, 2009)
Ahman Green officially re-signed with the Green Bay Packers on October 21, 2009, after the Packers placed running back DeShawn Wynn on injured reserve. With his former number, 30, taken by fullback John Kuhn, Green wore No. 34, the same number as former Chicago Bears running back Walter Payton, whom Green idolized as a young player. On November 8, 2009 Green broke Jim Taylor's record to become the all-time leading rusher in Packer history. In his final NFL season, Green was primarily used in a reserve role, rushing 41 times for 160 yards and one touchdown and also catching 3 passes for 18 yards.

Omaha Nighthawks (2010)
Green joined the Omaha Nighthawks of the United Football League for the 2010 season. He was a part of the Nighthawks' 40-man protected roster, started 8 games for the Nighthawks.

Montreal Alouettes (2011)
On February 7, 2011, the Montreal Alouettes of the Canadian Football League announced they signed Green to a tryout contract, signing Green to an official contract in March of that year. Green was released on Sunday of training camp on June 5, 2011 after arriving with an injured hamstring.

Retirement
Green announced his retirement from football in August 2011.

Personal life
Green was named after former NFL wide receiver and current broadcaster Ahmad Rashad. He has an uncle, Michael Green, who also attended Nebraska as a running back in the late 1960s. His uncle was drafted by the San Diego Chargers, but never appeared in a game.

In 2003, Green completed his undergraduate degree at Nebraska after taking classes at the University of Wisconsin–Green Bay, receiving a bachelor's degree in geography.

On September 21, 2012, Green was inducted into the University Of Nebraska Football Hall of Fame and was inducted into the Green Bay Packers Football Hall of Fame on July 19, 2014.

Green has lived in Green Bay since his retirement, and is an avid video-gamer and comic book fan – so much so that his nickname is "Batman", illustrated further by a calf tattoo of the superhero. He operates a sports training facility in the city, and serves as a spokesman for the Wisconsin Alzheimer's Association. From 2012 to 2014, Green served as co-owner of the Green Bay Blizzard, an arena football team.

In 2006, Green played a small role in the film Big Stan as the prisoner Lee Otis. Green also had a small role in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice as an unnamed thug, but his scene was cut from the final version of the film.

On June 26, 2017, Green was arrested on charges of child abuse and disorderly conduct after his daughter (from a previous marriage) claimed Green pushed her and struck her in the head over a dispute about chores. Green eventually entered a plea bargain where he pled no contest to reduced charges of criminal damage to property and disorderly conduct, claiming that he did not want to subject his daughter to a jury trial. He received 18 months probation.

In February 2020, Green was named head coach of Lakeland University's new varsity esports team.

In November 2021, Green hosted the finals of the first ever Mid-America Gamers Expo in Council Bluffs.
