Emmanuel Hiel

Emmanuel Hiel (30 May 1834 – 27 August 1899), was a Flemish-Dutch poet and prose writer.

Hiel was born at Sint-Gillis-bij-Dendermonde. During his life he held various jobs, from teacher and government official to journalist and bookseller, busily writing all the time both for the theatre and the magazines of North and South Netherlands. His last posts were those of librarian at the Industrial Museum and professor of declamation at the Conservatoire in Brussels.

Hiel took an active and prominent part in the so-called Flemish movement in Belgium, and his name is constantly associated with those of Jan van Beers, Jan Frans Willems, and Peter Benoit. Benoit set some of Hiel's verses to music, notably in his oratorios Lucifer (performed in London at the Royal Albert Hall and elsewhere) and De Schelde ("The Scheldt"). The Dutch composer Richard Hol (of Utrecht) composed music for Hiel's Ode to Liberty, and van Gheluwe used Hiel's verses in his Songs for Big and Small Folk (second edition, much enlarged, 1879). That music greatly contributed the popularity of Hiel's writing in schools and among Belgian choral societies.

Hiel also translated several foreign lyrics. His rendering of Tennyson's Dora was published in Antwerp around 1871. For the national festival of 1880 at Brussels, to commemorate the fiftieth anniversary of Belgian independence, Hiel composed two cantatas, Belgenland ("The Land of the Belgians") and Rer Belgenland ("Honour to Belgium"), which, set to music, were much appreciated.

Hiel's efforts to counteract Walloon influences and bring about a rapprochement between the Netherlanders in the north and the Teutonic racial sympathizers across the Rhine made him very popular with both. A volume of his best poems was in 1874 the first in a collection of Dutch authors published in Leipzig, Germany.

He died in 1899 at Schaerbeek.

Familia Caritatis

The Familia Caritatis, also known as the Familists, was a mystical religious sect founded in the sixteenth century by Henry Nicholis, also known as Niclaes. Familia Caritatis translates from Latin into "Family of Love", and in other languages, "Hus der Lieften", "Huis der Liefde" and "Haus der Liebe" (House of Love).

History
The outward trappings of Nicholis's system were Anabaptist. His followers were said to assert that all things were ruled by nature and not directly by God, deny the dogma of the Trinity, and repudiate infant baptism. They held that no man should be put to death for his opinions, and apparently, like the later Quakers, they objected to the carrying of arms and to anything like an oath. They were quite impartial in their repudiation of all other churches and sects, including Brownists and Barrowists.

Nicholis's message is said to have appealed to the well educated and creative elite, artists, musicians and scholars. They felt no need to spread the message and risk prosecution for heresy. Members were usually a part of an otherwise-established church, quietly remained in the background and were confident in their elite status as part of the Godhead. The Encyclopædia Britannica Eleventh Edition states: "Nicholis's followers escaped the gallows and the stake, for they combined with some success the wisdom of the serpent and the harmlessness of the dove. They would only discuss their doctrines with sympathizers; they showed every respect for authority, and considered outward conformity a duty. This quietist attitude, while it saved them from molestation, hampered propaganda."

Members of the Familists included the cartographer Abraham Ortelius and the publisher Christopher Plantin. Plantin worked by day as Philip II of Spain's printer of Catholic documents for the Counter Reformation, and otherwise surreptitiously printed Familist literature.

Nicholis's chief apostle in England was Christopher Vitell, who led the largest group of Familists in Balsham, Cambridgeshire. In October 1580 Roger Goad, Dr Bridgewater and William Fulke engaged in the examination of John Bourne, a glover, and some others of the Family of Love who were confined in Wisbech Castle, in the Isle of Ely. In the 1580s, it was discovered that some of the Yeomen of the Guard for Elizabeth I were Familists. The Queen did nothing about it, which raised questions about her own beliefs. The keeper of the lions in the Tower of London for James I was a Familist.

The society lingered into the early years of the eighteenth century. The leading idea of its service of love was a reliance on sympathy and tenderness for the moral and spiritual edification of its members. Thus, in an age of strife and polemics, it seemed to afford a refuge for quiet, gentle spirits and meditative temperaments. The Quakers, Baptists and Unitarians may have derived some of their ideas from the "Family".

Jan van Beers (poet)

Jan van Beers (22 February 1821 – 14 November 1888) was a Belgian poet born in Antwerp. He is usually referred to as "van Beers the elder" to distinguish him from his son, Jan van Beers (1852–1927), the painter.

Background
Van Beers was essentially a Netherlander, though politically a Belgian, expressing his thoughts in the same language as any North Netherland writer. In fact, the poems of Jan van Beers are perhaps more popular in the Netherlands than in Belgium, and for many of them there exist more editions printed in the Netherlands than in his political fatherland.

Early life
Van Beers started life as a teacher of Dutch language and literature, first at Mechelen, then at Lier, and in 1860 was appointed a professor of both at the Athenaeum (high school) in Antwerp, where he had also been a sub-librarian in the communal library. Van Beers as a teacher was early in the field, with Hendrik Conscience, Willems and others, when the Flemish movement began. He composed a Dutch grammar (1852), which, in enlarged editions, still holds the field, and a volume of selections from Dutch authors, both books being so much appreciated that the Belgian government made them textbooks in the public schools.

Poetical works
Van Beers' historical poems, the principal of which is, perhaps, Jakob Van Maerlant (Amsterdam, 1860), helped the Flemish revival in Belgium as powerfully as his school-books. He is best known, however, as the writer of ballads and songs. Jongelingsdroomen ("A Young Man's Dreams") first appeared at Antwerp and Amsterdam in 1853. These poems were followed by Levensbeelden ("Life Figures or Pictures," Amsterdam, 1858) and by Gevoel en Leven ("Feeling Living," Amsterdam, 1869). His Rijzende Blaren ("Rising Leaves") first made its appearance at Ghent and Rotterdam in 1883.

In the following year an edition de luxe of his poetry was published, adorned with pen-and-ink sketches by Jan van Beers the younger, and a popular edition of his collected poems was published at Ghent and Rotterdam in 1873 and 1884. Among the best known are De Blinde ("Blind"), De Zieke Jongeling ("Young and Doomed"), Bij 't Kerkportaal ("At the Church Porch"). Van Beers's poetry, full of glow and pathos, simple yet forcible, is somewhat akin to that of Longfellow.

Van Beers has been described as being typically Flemish in his sincere and moral outlook on life.

Gay Meadow

Gay Meadow was the home ground of Shrewsbury Town football club in Shropshire, England. Just outside the town centre, on the banks of the River Severn, it opened in 1910.

The ground closed at the end of the 2006-07 Football League season and the club moved to a new stadium, provisionally titled The New Meadow, on the outskirts of the town.

Local legend says that over 22,000 were inside the stadium for the league match against Wrexham A.F.C on 21 August 1950, although the official figure is given as 16,000. The official record attendance is 18,917, on 26 April 1961 against local rivals Walsall. Because it had only one entrance/exit road, in the years following the Taylor Report the capacity of the ground was reduced from 16,000 to around 8,000.

Early history of Gay Meadow
Centuries before Shrewsbury Town occupied the site, Gay Meadow was known locally for the fairs, carnivals and circuses which took place there.

The origin of the name is not entirely clear, although it is widely believed to be related to a use for entertainment purposes. One suggestion by local historian J.L. Hobbs, is that it is of Norman influence and that the ground was a monastic park attached to Shrewsbury Abbey. Other suggested origins are the Welsh word Cae, a field, or Old English words galla, barren wet land, or gat, a goat. An alternative origin states that the land was originally owned by the Gay family, first represented by a 'Richard Gegh' (sic) of 'Monks Foriet' (later Abbey Foregate) recorded in 1349.

In 1739, stuntman Robert Cadman, a 'steeple-flyer', attempted to 'fly' across the River Severn using a rope attached to St Mary's Church at one side and a tree at Gay Meadow some two hundred feet below. Tragically for Cadman, the rope broke, and he plunged to his death.

First matches
In 1910, Shrewsbury Town were looking for a new ground to play at, having been told they could no longer use the Army-owned pitch at Copthorne Barracks. A consortium bought the site and leased it to the club. Despite objections from the local hospital, the Salop Infirmary, who feared crowd noise might disturb patients across the River Severn, the first official match took place on 20 August 1910, when a crowd of up to 1,000 watched a pre-season practice match between the 'Reds' and the 'Whites'.

The first league game at Gay Meadow was between Shrewsbury Town and Wolverhampton Wanderers Reserves, on 10 September 1910. Shrewsbury lost the match 2–1, with 'Shinton' scoring the first league goal for Wolves, and Billy Scarratt scoring Shrewsbury Town's first goal at the ground. Shrewsbury's first win at Gay Meadow occurred two weeks later against Halesowen.

Ground improvements
The ground did not see major improvements until the mid-1950s, when trees which lined the road to Gay Meadow (The Narrows) were felled to improve access. It was around this time that the club's supporters launched a floodlight committee in order to raise £12,000 for the installation of floodlights. On 25 November 1960, a crowd of 5,448 saw Shrewsbury Town beat Stoke City 5–0 in a match to mark the installation of the lights. The previous Saturday, over 10,000 witnessed the turning on of the lights in the game against QPR which was a 3.15 kick off. The floodlights formed part of the Shrewsbury skyline for almost 47 years.

1965 saw new offices built at the club, with the Riverside terrace being built in the early 1970s. This terrace would gain legendary status amongst home fans in years to come.

In the early 1980s, the club promotion to the old Second Division required further improvements. The old 600 seater Station Stand was demolished and a new 4,500 capacity centre stand built. Until the ground's demolition in 2007, this was the last major building work to take place at the ground. Minor changes in the 1990s included a new Executive Suite, a TV gantry in the main stand, the controversial demolition of the ground's wooden scoreboard, and, following the Taylor Report, the removal of perimeter fencing with the exception of the away Station end.

General overview
On the banks of the River Severn, the ground was surrounded by trees and parkland, with the town centre towering above the ground on the hilltop behind. A number of the town's landmarks, including Shrewsbury Castle and Shrewsbury Abbey were visible from the ground.

For many years, Shrewsbury coracle maker Fred Davies would sit in his coracle during Shrewsbury Town home matches and retrieve stray footballs from the River Severn. Although Davies died long ago, his legend is still associated with the club.

Due to the ground being rather small and cramped, between the river and a major railway junction, there was little scope for expansion or renovation. Access, via a small side street known as 'The Narrows', was poor and one of the main reasons the ground's capacity was reduced following the Taylor Report. Problems with evacuation and access for emergency services was one of the reasons cited by the club for moving to a new ground.

North
Station End - So-called due to its proximity to the town's railway station. A partially covered terrace, normally allocated to visiting fans, although it was also a home terrace until the 1970s. Its capacity, depending on the away allocation, ranged from 1,500 to 2,000. Unusually it kept the bottom half of its perimeter fencing right up until its final game, most other stadia in the country having removed theirs following the Taylor Report. It was also notable for housing the oldest working football turnstile in the country, although this was only used on rare occasions. With the ground closed, the old turnstile sold for £3,050 at an auction staged at the ground on 17 June 2007, to a local Shrewsbury Town fan.

West
Riverside Terrace - So-called due to its position on the bank of the River Severn. The Riverside was a partially covered terrace running the length of the pitch, with a refreshments bar situated halfway along the terrace and roof mounted TV gantry (used only occasionally for high-profile matches). This part of the ground was where the most lively element of the home crowd were to congregate, with the most vocal of home chanting and support coming from supporters from 'The Riverside' with frequent exchanges with visiting fans often heard. Famously, stray footballs were often kicked over this stand into the Severn, to be retrieved by a man in a coracle named Fred Davies, (not to be confused with the manager of the same name who was in charge at the Meadow between 1993-97).

South
Wakeman (or Tech) End - So-called due to the Wakeman School (formerly a technical grammar school) being directly behind it. It was an open terrace, with the windows of the school overlooking the pitch. This side of the ground along with the Riverside Terrace formed one large standing area for home fans, with movement unrestricted between the two. This often resulted in home fans congregating behind the goal on the Wakeman End when Shrewsbury Town were attacking in that direction - leaving the north part of the Riverside Terrace practically empty. The combined capacity of the Riverside and Wakeman Terraces was between 3,000 and 3,500 - depending on the size of the away following.

East
The east side of the ground was a covered, all-seater section. Limited seating for away fans was also available. The stand also boasted executive seating for VIPs, sponsors and guests, a TV gantry and press offices. The east side of the ground was also adjacent to the club's offices, function rooms and official player's/supporter's bar. Although consisting of a single stand generally referred to as the 'Main' stand, it was split into four enclosures, as follows:

Wakeman Stand - So-called due to its proximity to the Wakeman School. A covered, all seater stand for 1,000 home supporters.

Centre Stand - So-called due to forming the central part of the seated area. A covered, all seater stand for 1,000 home supporters. It also housed the directors' box.

Family enclosure - This was a designated area for families consisting of 700 seats, with admission via designated 'family' tickets.

Station Stand - A seated section for away fans, holding roughly 250 away fans

The move to New Meadow
Whilst Gay Meadow was well regarded by fans, and traditionalists within the English game, the ground was in a cramped location between the River Severn and a major railway junction. In addition, access to the ground was restricted to a narrow side street known locally as 'the Narrows. The poor access, and poor scope for evacuation in the case of emergency, meant that the capacity of the ground was cut to 8,000 by the early 1990s following stricter ground safety regulations that followed the Bradford City stadium fire of 1985 and the Taylor Report which followed the Hillsborough disaster of 1989.

In addition, the ground's proximity to the river meant the ground often flooded in the autumn and winter months, leading to matches being postponed. Flooding also caused damage to offices and changing rooms.

Shrewsbury had been considering relocation since 1986, when plans were drawn up for a new stadium to the north of the town and Sainsbury's lined up to build a supermarket on the site of the old stadium. However, with Shrewsbury relegated from the old Second Division in 1989 and Sainsbury's developing elsewhere in the town, the plans were abandoned. In the 1990s, plans were made to redevelop Gay Meadow; however, with the poor access, capacity could rise to no more than 10,000.

In 1999, recently elected chairman Roland Wycherley released plans for a new stadium, provisionally titled the New Meadow, a 10,000 all-seater stadium on the southern outskirts of the town between the Meole Brace and Sutton Farm districts.

Amongst other things, opposition from residents delayed the planning and building process until 2006, with the ground not being completed until July 2007. The New Meadow has a 10,000 all-seated capacity, with the scope to expand to beyond 40,000. In addition, the ground has far better road links, more car parking, and, being well away from the river, is unlikely to suffer from flooding.

End of Gay Meadow
To fund the move, the Gay Meadow site was sold to property developers. The final season at Gay Meadow was 2006–07.

Gay Meadow's final FA Cup tie was a goalless draw against Hereford United on 11 November 2006 in the first round (Shrewsbury lost the replay at Edgar Street).

The last team to win a professional match at Gay Meadow were Shrewsbury's biggest rivals Wrexham, who won 1–0 at the second-to-last league game at the ground on 24 April 2007.

The final League game played at Gay Meadow was against Grimsby Town on 5 May 2007, a 2–2 draw, with Grimsby equalising in the final minute. To commemorate the day, a parade of former Shrewsbury Town greats was organised, with commemorative T-shirts being handed out to fans free of charge with donations for local charities instead. Defender Kelvin Langmead took the honour of being the final Shrewsbury Town goalscorer at the ground, although Grimsby's Nick Fenton scored the ground's final professional goal.

The final senior competitive match held at Gay Meadow was against Milton Keynes Dons on 14 May 2007, the first leg of the League 2 Play-offs. The game finished 0-0.

Before demolition, fans were given the opportunity to play on the pitch, in specially arranged friendly matches, and an auction was staged at the ground on 17 June 2007, where over 200 items were auctioned. In addition, 500 unsold seats were purchased by League of Wales side Caernarfon Town, to be used in the redevelopment of a stand at their ground, the Oval.

The final football match to be staged at Gay Meadow was the club's annual friendly fixture between Shrewsbury's 'Away Supporters' team and the Shrewsbury Town backroom staff on Friday 22 June. Alan Roberts, the club's police liaison officer, scored the only goal of the game, and thus the last goal at the ground.

In September 2007 demolition of the stadium began, and by October 2007 the ground was reduced to rubble. The site was earmarked for residential building, with 150 flats scheduled to be built on the site. In 2009, building started on a number of luxury flats and it was completed in 2014.

With the ground almost completely demolished, a charity zip-wire event was held on 14 October 2007. Over 100 townspeople 'flew' from the St. Mary's area of the town centre, over the River Severn to land on the Gay Meadow pitch, emulating Robert Cadman's heroic attempt in 1739. In addition, sections of the Gay Meadow turf were sold for a small fee for Severn Hospice, the organising charity. This was the final public event to ever take place at Gay Meadow before the re-development of the site.

Jan Frans Willems

Jan Frans Willems (11 March 1793 – 24 June 1846) was a Flemish writer, and the father of the Flemish movement.

Willems was born in the Belgian city of Boechout while it was under French occupation. He started his career in the office of a notary in Antwerp.

He devoted his leisure to literature, and in 1810 he gained a prize for poetry with an ode in celebration of the peace of Tilsit. He hailed with enthusiasm the foundation of the United Kingdom of the Netherlands, and the revival of Flemish literature; and he published a number of spirited and eloquent writings in support of the claims of the native tongue of the Netherlands.

His political sympathies were with the Orange party at the revolution of 1830, and these views led him into trouble with the provisional government. Willems, however, was soon recognized as the unquestioned leader of the Flemish popular movement, the chief plank in whose platform he made the complete equality of the languages in the government and the law courts. He died in Ghent in 1846.

Among his writings, which were quite numerous, the most important were: He also produced several learned critical editions of old Flemish texts.
 * De Kunsten en Wetenschappen (1816)
 * Aen de Belgen, Aux Belges (1818)
 * Historisch Onderzoek naer den oorsprong en den waren naem der openbare plaetsen en andere oudheden van de stad Antwerpen (1828)

Publications
Biographies of Willems have been written by Ferdinand Augustijn Snellaert (Ghent, 1847) and Max Rooses (Antwerp, 1874). (New International Encyclopedia). Also published by Rooses, Julius Vuylsteke, and Anton Bergmann is Jan Frans Willems, (Ghent, 1893).

Carl Gustaf Hellqvist

Carl Gustaf Hellqvist (15 December 1851 – 19 November 1890) was one of Sweden's most popular historical painters in the 19th century.

Biography
He was born in Kungsör, between Arboga and Eskilstuna at Lake Mälaren, Sweden, where he grew up and went to school. In 1864 Hellqvist started to study art at the Swedish Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Stockholm, and in 1875 he was awarded the Royal Academy's highest prize for his painting " Gustav Vasa accuses Peder Sunnanväder and Mäster Knut in front of the chapter in Västerås" Swedish: Gustav Vasa  anklagar Peder Sunnanväder och Mäster Knut inför domkapitlet i Västerås.

Two years later in 1877 Hellqvist was awarded a travelling scholarship from the Academy, and he travelled around the European continent. He moved together with his fiancée, to Munich in 1879.

In 1882 he and Julie Karoline Friederike Thiersch (1859-1933) were married and left for Paris, where Hellqvist earlier had been present at the Paris Salon with his oil painting "The Death of Sten Sture the Younger on the Ice of Lake Mälaren" (Swedish: Sten Sture d y:s död på Mälarens is).

In August 1882 he was awarded the gold medal for his magnificent historical painting "Valdemar Atterdag Holding Visby to Ransom, 1361" (Swedish: Valdemar Atterdag brandskattar Visby) in Vienna, Austria.

In 1886 Hellqvist suffered from severe headaches which forced him to take a leave from his teaching at Königliche akademische Hochschule für die Bildenden Künste at Berlin. He ended his period of historical painting at the same time.

In 1889 Hellqvist received treatment for his disease and he was ordered on a diet.

In 1890 it was announced that Hellqvist's studio-objects were to be sold. Probably the most famous photograph of his studio was taken at the same time, which shows how a historical painter's studio looked like during the late 19th century.

From March 1889 he stayed in a mental hospital in Munich, and he died there on 19 November 1890 at the age of 38. He was buried in Munich.

Dęblin

Dęblin is a town at the confluence of Vistula and Wieprz rivers, in Lublin Voivodeship, Poland. Dęblin is the part of the agglomeration with adjacent towns of Ryki and Puławy, which altogether has over 100 000 inhabitants. The population of the town itself is 15,505 (December 2021). Dęblin is part of the historic region of Lesser Poland. Since 1927 it has been the home of the chief Polish Air Force Academy (Lotnicza Akademia Wojskowa), and as such Dęblin is one of the most important places associated with aviation in Poland. The town is also a key railroad junction, located along the major Berlin – Warsaw line, with two additional connections stemming from Dęblin – one westwards to Radom, and another one northeast to Łuków.

History
Dęblin was first mentioned as a village in historical documents dating from 1397. At that time, it was ruled by Castellans from Sieciechów. It was a private village of Polish nobility, including the Mniszech family, administratively located in the Stężyca County in the Sandomierz Voivodeship in the Lesser Poland Province of the Kingdom of Poland.

It was annexed by Austria in the Third Partition of Poland in 1795. Following the Austro-Polish War of 1809, it was regained by Poles and included within the short-lived Duchy of Warsaw. After the duchy's dissolution in 1815, it became part of Russian-controlled Congress Poland. The settlement was still owned by Polish nobility until 1836 when it was taken over by the Russian government following the unsuccessful Polish November Uprising. In 1840 the village was handed to Russian field marshal Ivan Paskievich, who played a prominent role in the suppression of the November Uprising. From then on until the end of Russian rule in this part of Poland (1915) Dęblin was often referred to by its new Russian name of Ivangorod.

In the years after the November Uprising the military significance of the Dęblin site, at the confluence of two important rivers (the Vistula and the Wieprz), was noted. In the years 1838–1845 the Ivangorod fortress was constructed, sited to protect a crossing across the Vistula. After 1859 the fortress was further expanded. In the early 1880s a railway line connecting Lublin with Silesia was built, with a bridge over the Vistula passing near the fortress, further enhancing its importance. In 1854 the core of the present-day town, at its founding named the Irena Colony, was established. It kept its name until 1953 when it was incorporated into the town of Dęblin. During the January Uprising, on September 26, 1863, it was the site of a skirmish between Polish insurgents and Russian troops.

The fortress played a role in World War I. In October, 1914 a significant battle was fought in its vicinity, in which the Russian armies repelled a combined German and Austro-Hungarian offensive. After that battle the defences of the fortress were further improved, and it became even more important as an anchor of the Russian position on the Vistula. However, reverses elsewhere along the front forced the Russians to abandon Ivangorod in August 1915. In 1920, the Dęblin area was the starting point for a Polish offensive that decided the fate of the Battle of Warsaw and the entire Polish–Soviet War. Polish leader Józef Piłsudski stayed in the town on August 12–13, 1920, shortly before the Battle of Warsaw. In the years 1918–1939, as part of independent Poland, Dęblin continued to have large military significance. The Dęblin fortress was garrisoned by the 15th Wolves Infantry Regiment of the Polish Army, and in the nearby village of Stawy one of the largest ammunition depots of the Polish Army (Główna Składnica Uzbrojenia nr. 2) was located. In 1927 the famous Polish Air Force academy was officially moved to Dęblin, after its founding in Grudziądz in 1925 (some pilot training has been conducted here since 1920). It continues to function today.

During the invasion of Poland, which started World War II, Dęblin was captured by the Wehrmacht on September 15, 1939. Under the German occupation, its Jewish population perished during the Holocaust. Dęblin was a location of a German prisoner-of-war camp for Polish, French, Dutch, Belgian, Senegalese, Soviet and Italian POWs, designated at various times as Stalag 307 and Oflag 77. Dęblin was seized by the Red Army on July 25–26, 1944, and was eventually restored to Poland.

In the postwar years Dęblin was rebuilt and expanded. It received its town charter in 1954.

Stawy Ammunition Depot
Stawy, now a district of Dęblin, was a separate settlement in the Second Polish Republic. It is located along rail line from Dęblin to Ryki, among pine forests. Stawy has a population of 500.

In January 1921, construction of Ammunition Plant began in local forests. The name of the plan was soon changed into Main Ammunition Depot Nr. 2. At that time, the location of the depot was not named, it was simply called "Forest Barracks". On July 1, 1924, Minister of Military Affairs, General Władysław Sikorski officially changed the name Forest Barracks into Stawy.

The depot at Stawy was one of the largest such facilities in the interbellum Poland. During the Invasion of Poland, it provided ammunition to the fighting troops. In late September 1939, General Franciszek Kleeberg, commander of Independent Operational Group Polesie ordered his soldiers to march to Stawy, and capture the depot. Kleeberg however did not know that in mid-September the depot was blown up by order of General Stefan Dąb-Biernacki, commander of the Polish Northern Front (1939). The operation was carried out by soldiers of the 39th Infantry Division (General Bruno Olbrycht). Nevertheless, Kleeberg and his soldiers failed to capture Stawy, as they capitulated in early October 1939, after the Battle of Kock (1939).

Symbols
The flag of Dęblin consists of three stripes: upper silver (white), middle gold, and lower blue, with the silver and blue zones occupying two fifths each and gold one-fifth of the flag height.

Damiano Tommasi

Damiano Tommasi (born 17 May 1974) is an Italian former footballer and current Mayor of Verona.

A defensive midfielder during his footballing years, after a decade at Roma – winning the 2001 Serie A title – he continued his career abroad, going on to play for teams in three countries until his retirement from professional football at the age of 37. He amassed Serie A totals of 262 games and 14 goals.

Tommasi earned 25 caps for Italy, and was a member of the team that took part in the 2002 World Cup.

He successively served as the president of the Italian Footballers' Association between 2011 and 2020, before starting a political career the following year and being elected Mayor of Verona in the 2022 local elections.

Club career
Born in Negrar, Province of Verona, Tommasi started his professional career with local club Hellas Verona, in Serie B. He made his Serie A debut on 7 September 1996 with AS Roma in a 3–1 win over Piacenza Calcio, and would be an instrumental figure in the side's 2001 conquest of the scudetto, with manager Fabio Capello even labelling him as the team's most important player.

During a summer friendly match against Stoke City in 2004, Tommasi suffered a serious knee injury in a collision with Gerry Taggart, and was out of action long-term. In the summer of 2005 he accepted a one-year contract extension, with youth player wages (€1,500 a month) – a contract which he instigated himself in the name of fairness. He finally returned to play on 30 October 2005, coming on as a second-half substitute for Olivier Dacourt during a league match against Ascoli Calcio 1898 and being hailed with a long standing ovation by the Roma supporters.

On 27 November 2005, Tommasi scored after just two minutes in an eventual 1–1 home draw against ACF Fiorentina, being an important first-team member as Roma finished runner-up. After ten years with the club, in July 2006 he joined Levante UD in Spain, spending two seasons with the La Liga strugglers, eventually ending in relegation in 2007–08.

On 10 September 2008, Tommasi agreed a one-year deal with English Football League Championship team Queens Park Rangers. On 9 January 2009, his contract was terminated by mutual consent and, after advanced talks with Chinese Super League's Tianjin TEDA, he signed for the club early in the following month, citing an interest in a third experience abroad as the main reason for it.

After one season, 35-year-old Tommasi left Teda and decided to return to Italy, joining amateurs Sant'Anna d'Alfaedo (Seconda Categoria), where he played alongside his two brothers. He made his debut with the team on 13 December 2009; he came out of retirement nearly six years later, with SP La Fiorita of San Marino. He stated on his decision: "It's a challenge that La Fiorita have given me the chance to experience all over again. I've been looking forward to this Europa League draw for ages now. Let's hope it will be a beautiful adventure and that I can add another chapter to my football career", and went to feature in their campaign in the UEFA Europa League campaign against FC Vaduz.

International career
Tommasi played for the Italy under-21 team that won the 1996 UEFA European Championship, also being picked for that year's Summer Olympic Games in Atlanta where he made three appearances. He made his debut for the senior side on 18 November 1998, under Dino Zoff, in a 2–2 home draw against Spain, but did not become a regular team member until 2001.

After featuring prominently during the Azzurri's 2002 FIFA World Cup qualifying campaign, Tommasi was picked by manager Giovanni Trapattoni for the squad that would take part at the finals in Japan and South Korea. He played in all four matches during the tournament, which ended in round-of-16 exit; in the decisive clash against co-hosts South Korea, he came close to scoring twice: first when Roma teammate Francesco Totti played him in only to have his shot blocked by Lee Woon-Jae. During extra time, referee Byron Moreno disallowed him a goal due to a controversial offside decision, and the Italians were eventually defeated by a golden goal.

Tommasi made his last appearance for Italy on 16 November 2003, in a 1–0 home victory over Romania. He scored the first of two goals for his country on 5 September 2001, in a 1–0 friendly win over Morocco.

Style of play
A quick, strong, tenacious, consistent, hardworking and versatile player, Tommasi primarily excelled at breaking down his opponents' plays and intercepting passes as a box-to-box or defensive midfielder, due to his stamina and hard-tackling style of play. He also possessed good technique, movement, intelligence and was an accurate passer, which enabled him to retain possession and start attacking plays after winning back the ball; these attributes allowed him to play anywhere in midfield, rather than being confined to a single position, and he was often deployed on the right flank earlier on in his career, as well as in the centre, or even as an offensive-minded midfielder, or in the mezzala role, due to his eye for goal. In his youth, he also played as a central defender.

Post-retirement
In January 2010, together with his agent Andrea Pretti and longtime friend Werner Seeber, Tommasi set up a company in China called Tommasi Pretti Seeber Sports Culture & Exchange Co., Ltd (TPS), aimed at creating a reliable bridge between Europe and the Asian country in the field of football.

On 9 May 2011, he became the president of the Italian Footballers' Association, succeeding historical founder Sergio Campana who had been in office for 43 years. He resigned from his role in 2020.

Political career
In October 2021, it was announced Tommasi would run as the centre-left candidate for mayor of Verona for the 2022 election. After qualifying to the second round with around 40% of votes, on 26 June 2022 Tommasi won the runoff with over 54% of the vote over outgoing right-wing mayor Federico Sboarina in the traditionally right-wing city.

Personal life

 * Married to Chiara Pigozzi since 1996, Tommasi has six children: Beatrice, Camilla, Susanna, Samuele, Emanuele and Aurora.
 * A philanthropist, he was heavily involved in charity work, and arranges for footballers' disciplinary fines to go to good causes.
 * Tommasi first began his involvement with charitable organisations in 1994, when he chose to undertake civil service instead of military service, as he "did not want to serve his country by holding a rifle."
 * For his charitable work, he received the "Altro-pallone" award in 2000.
 * When first called up by the national side, Tommasi said he did not deserve the honour in that moment.

Al-Farazdaq

Hammam Ibn Ghalib Al-Tamimi (همام بن غالب; born 641 AD/20 AH died 728–730 AD/110-112 AH), more commonly known as Al-Farazdaq (الفرزدق) or Abu Firas (ابو فراس), was a 7th-century Arab poet and orator who was born in the Rashidun Caliphate of Umar and flourished during the Umayyad Caliphate. He had a great impact on the Arabic Language and it is said that “If it were not for Al-Farazdaq’s poetry, a third of the Arab language would not have been.” Born in Kazma to nobility, he was a member of Darim, one of the most respected tribes of the Bani Tamim; his mother was from the tribe of Dabba. His grandfather Saasa was a North Arabian Bedouin of great reputation – his father Ghalib followed the same nomadic lifestyle until the founding of Basra (636 AD/15 AH), and was famous for his generosity and hospitality. Al-Farazdaq is considered to be one of the greatest classical poets of the Arabs.

At the age of 15, Farazdaq was well known as a poet, and though for a short time by the advice of the Caliph Ali to devote his time to the study of the Qur'an, he later returned to making verse. He devoted his talent largely to satire and attacked the Bani Nahshal and the Bani Fuqaim. When Ziyad, a member of the latter tribe, became governor of Basra in 669, the poet was forced into exile, first to Kufa, and then, as he was still too close to Ziyad, to Medina, where he was well received by the city's Emir, Sa'id ibn al-'As. Here he remained about ten years, writing satires about tribes, but avoiding city politics.

But he lived a lavish and prodigal life, his amorous verses led to his expulsion by the Caliph Marwan. Around that time he learned of the death of Ziyad and returned to Basra, where he secured the favor of Ziyad's successor Ubaydallah ibn Ziyad. Much of his poetry was now devoted to his matrimonial affairs. He had taken advantage of his position as guardian and married his second-degree cousin Nawar against her will. She sought help in vain from the court of Basra and from various tribes. All feared the poet's satires. At last, she fled to Mecca and appealed to the political contender to the Umayyads Abdallah ibn Zubayr, whom however succeeded in inducing her to consent to a confirmation of the marriage instead.

Quarrels soon arose again. Farazdaq took a second wife, and after her death a third to annoy Nawar. Finally, he consented to a divorce pronounced by Hasan al-Basri. Another subject occasioned a long series of verses, namely his feud with his rival Jarir and his tribe, the Bani Kulaib. These poems are published as the Nakaid of Jarir and al-Farazdaq. The feud between them lasted 40 years, Jarir is supposed to have enjoyed it so much that when he received the news of Farazdaq's passing, he lost the will to live and spontaneously died thereafter.

Al-Farazdaq became an official poet at the court of Umayyad caliph Al-Walid (reign. 705–715 AD/86-96 AH), to whom he dedicated a number of panegyrics.

He is most famous for the poem that he gave in Makkah when Zayn al-Abidin entered the Haram of the Kaaba which angered the Emir. The poem is considered extremely powerful and meaningful to the life of Al-Farazdaq, since he was imprisoned because of it.

Talk:Mount Terror (Washington)

Oral history removed from article
Mount Terror is named because of the terror induced in travellers who travel beneath it from Northern Pickets to Southern Pickets. The only route is along wet ledges, the most difficult being a ledge ending in a vertical walled slot. Travellers cannot rope up on this ledge, because of ice chunks that crash down a few times an hour.

''Please see "Routes and Rocks in the Mt. Challenger Quadrangle" Published by the Mountaineers for description of route below Mt. Terror -- please note that this description is highly understated. It is also long out of print, but The Mountaineers (Climbing Club in Seattle) will have a copy. Reason for name is from verbal history related to myself by Joan Firey, editor of the Mountaineer, Journal of the Mountaineers in Seattle Washington at the time. See Mountaineers at web page: http://www.mountaineersbooks.org/ The Mountaineers are the organization that maintains climbing history in Seattle and should be able to confirm the reason for the name.''

If someone could confirm this with a source that is acceptable to Wikipedia, please reinstate into article. Thanks! hike395 14:11, 1 September 2007 (UTC)

1961 accent by Mike Swayne and Ed Cooper
I removed a bit that said that the 1961 ascent by Mike Swayne and Ed Cooper was the first ascent. According to this article Swayne and Cooper found a summit register in 1961 that recorded three prior ascents. – droll  [chat]  05:10, 15 January 2011 (UTC)

More first ascent confusion
Terror was not climbed in the 1931. There was some confusion in 1931 about which summit was Mount Terror. Strandberg wrote about climbing the peak in this article but evidently he and Degenhardt changed their minds about it afterward. The peak they climbed in 1931 is now named Mount Degenhardt. This is discussed in Beckey. – droll  [chat]  06:17, 15 January 2011 (UTC)

1915 Gould Map
Just a heads up. The remarkable 1915 Robert B. Gould Civil Engineer map titled "Map of The Deschutes Valley, Central Oregon - compiled by Robert B. Gould, Civil Engineer. Bend, Oregon. 1915" has two alternate names for Mount Bachelor. They include "The Bachelor" and in parenthesis "(Snow Bu.)". These two names would do well to make it into the article, at least in the historical part of it. Leitmotiv (talk) 23:19, 7 November 2019 (UTC)

Uh, some person removed some links
Some person removed some links, such as Category:Volcanoes of Oregon and Category:Volcanoes of the United States. Can somebody please add these categories back please? Thank you!

Elevation conversion issue
In the elevation section, it says the height is 11,240 ft which actually converts to 3426m, but the conversion is listed as 3430 m which is wrong. I tried editing but noticed that the conversion was done automatically by Wikipedia using its internal converter. Maybe there's some problem with the converter?

 * Please see Template:Convert to learn how to make adjustments to the precision of the conversion. --Walter Siegmund (talk) 15:42, 21 April 2015 (UTC)

I just stumbled over the same issue. Both 11239 and 11240ft should convert to 3426m. I added sigfig=4 where appropriate. That seems to fix the issue. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2003:4A:CE11:9361:C66E:1FFF:FE10:D8CA (talk) 19:58, 15 July 2015 (UTC)

Wy'east
There is no record of the Multnomah tribe having used the name Wy'east at all for anything. It is not even a word. Scholars and linguists have looked closely at the word for more than 100 years and found no record of the word. The word has been documented as being used first by Fredrick Balch in his admittedly "fictionalized" account of the supposed native story quoted in the entry "Bridge of the Gods". What this means is Balch likely created the word himself to enliven his "fictional" account. Again this is a "fictional" account which means many of the details are made up by the author. This is romanticist history at its finest. Now more than 120 years after the Balch text was first produced (1889?)people tend to believe in the word Wy'east even though it is not proven in any way to be a native word. There is a discussion by me in the article Four Deaths published in 2014 in the Oregon Historical Quarterly. (https://www.jstor.org/stable/10.5403/oregonhistq.115.3.0414#metadata_info_tab_contents). So this word now has taken on other public dimensions as people have widely adopted it, and in many ways have been taught about it as if it is a native word, so it will be tough to change people's minds. but I challenge anyone to find a varified ethnographic or linguistic record with the word at all?!!! If this is found and proven to be legit, I will immediately change my position. There are other words for the mountain, the local tribes did call it Pahto, and the Molala have a word for it, I would have to dig that word from my notes, but no one to this point has found Wy'east in any record. I recommend changing the record to suggest that the Multnomah have no record of using it as a word, BTW we do not have many words at all from the Multnomah, their language would be lower Chinook. The record could suggest that there is an "assumed" native placename, with no record of tribes using it. I realize people who believe in the myth of Wy'east will be highly critical of these statements and will try to attack me personally, All I can say is prove it, find the record of this, or change the entry. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dglewis9000 (talk • contribs) 19:45, 16 April 2020 (UTC)

'enemy commander'
In the article it talks about US Navy ships named for Mt. Hood, it states this is 'despite being named after an enemy commander'. This doesn't seem to fit, both ships were commissioned long after the US and the UK had become rather staunch allies and in fact the earliest one was on the tail end of WWII when both countries had bled together on the same side of the largest conflict the world has seen. Would there be any opposition to me cutting that phrase? --WhoIs 127.0.0.1 ping/loopback 12:16, 2 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Ehh, after seeing the lack oh historical activity on this talkpage I just went ahead an did it. If anyone thinks the phrase added something to the text feel free to tell me why I'm wrong :) --WhoIs 127.0.0.1 ping/loopback 12:20, 2 July 2022 (UTC)

User:Rutti

Rutti is a word first expressed in Oslo by an unknown norweigan warehouse worker sometime around year 2000. It rapidly spread over the border to Sweden and gained foothold in the small town of Härnösand. The word has gained popularity among young people in other parts of Sweden and is still spreading.

The meaning is somewhat difficult to understand as the word gets its meaning in the prevailing context. It's meaning is however always something very positive and the purpose is often to encourage. Maybe the brilliance is that this word encompass a bigger spectrum of words that you can express at the same time using it in the correct way.

The opposite word Orutti can be used in the same way to express deprecation.

Examples of use is: - "Rutti overtaking"

- "Hi guys, how do you like my new sweater?" - "Rutti"

- "How was your vacation in Greece?" - "It's a cool country, we visited this rutti town in the south called Iraklio."

Can also be used if you witness someone doing something cool by crying out "Rutti".

Miles of Fire

Miles of Fire, The Burning Miles, or The Fiery Miles (Огненные вёрсты, translit. Ognennye versty) is an early Red Western filmed by Samson Samsonov in 1957. Often considered the earliest of the 'Red Westerns' (or 'Osterns'), it was made before the term was coined. The film is a Russian Civil War drama, focusing on the conflict between the Reds and the Whites.

One-time Mosfilm actor Samsonov had a versatile directorial career prior to The Burning Miles, fresh from an adaptation of Chekhov's The Grasshopper that won two prizes at the Venice Film Festival. He was later awarded the title of 'People's Artist of the USSR'.

Plot summary
The White Guard Army led by General Anton Denikin are laying siege to a southern city in order to prevent a rebellion. They are also blocking the railway, but Chekist Zavragin is in a hurry to travel south. In a flash of inspiration, he decides to use tachankas or machine gun carts to reach his destination, and attracts an unusual group of equally desperate fellow travellers.

The Burning Miles is influenced by railroad Western films like John Ford's classic Stagecoach, because of the diverse set of characters thrown together in desperate circumstances. Zavragin's companions on his journey include the doctor Shelako, the nurse Katya and a mysterious white guard officer Beklemishev, disguised as a veterinary surgeon. This formula gives the film an extra psychological dimension as the characters' progress towards their destination echoes the resolution of their problems and transitions in relationships.

Main cast

 * Igor Savkin (Grigory Fyodorovich Zavragin)
 * Margarita Volodina (Katerina Gavrilovna)
 * Mikhail Troyanovsky (Dr. Shelako)
 * Vladimir Kenigson (Sergei Beklemishev)
