Shahbuz District

Shahbuz District (Şahbuz rayonu) is one of the 7 districts of the Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic of Azerbaijan. The district borders the districts of Julfa, Babek, and the Syunik and Vayots Dzor provinces of Armenia. Its capital and largest city is Shahbuz. As of 2020, the district had a population of 25,300.

Overview
Covering 27 villages and plateaus of the Oyuqlucaqaya, Bazaryurd, Dərəbash, Qachdash, Nərkechi and Armudlu, the region of Dərəşahbuz was established in the 16th century and functioned up to 40th years of the 19th century. In 1925, it was named Narimanov District in the administrative-territorial unit of Nakhchivan (encompassing 30 villages) and renamed Shahbuz in 1930. In 1963, the district was abolished and given to the Nakhchivan (since 1978, Babak) region; Shahbuz has operated as an independent district since 1965.

In 2007, the settlement of Shahbuz was given city status. In 2013, by decree of President of Azerbaijan Republic, Qarababa village was dissolved and added into the administrative territory of the city of Shahbuz.

Shahbuz district is located in the north of NAR. It is a mountainous area. Salvarti (3162 m), Uchgardash (3156 m), and Kechaldagh (3115 m) are the highest points. Like the rest of the republic, many groundwaters flow in the region, such as badamli, batabat, caravansarai, bichanak and other mineral waters. There are sulfur, construction materials, peat deposits. The district has the river Nakhchivanchay River and its tributaries - Kuku, Shahbuz, Salvarti - and Ganligol and Batabat Lakes. "Badamli" resort was built near the Badamli mineral water plant.

Etymology
There are different versions of the etymology of the name of Shahbuz. At the historical sources, first time the name of "Shahbuz" can be found on the map which shows treasury of copper coins of the state of Eldiguzids and in the historical work of Sharaf ad-Din Ali Yazdi "Zafarnama", historian of Amir Timur.

Population
According to the State Statistics Committee, as of 2018, the population of region recorded 25.1 thousand persons, which increased by 4.5 thousand persons (21.8 percent) from 20.6 thousand persons in 2000. 12.7 thousand of total population are men, 12.4 thousand are women.

Kathy's So-Called Reality

Kathy's So-Called Reality is a television clip show that aired in 2001, hosted by comedian and former Suddenly Susan star Kathy Griffin.

The show was "part monologue, part round-table", featuring Griffin discussing clips from a variety of reality television shows the week prior with a panel of family and friends. According to Griffin, the reality shows, even the "scandal-plagued" Temptation Island, "amazingly" contributed clips to be mocked. The show premiered on February 4, 2001 on MTV, and ended on April 1, 2001 after airing only six episodes; the network did not renew the show due to low ratings. USA Today columnist Whitney Matheson wrote that the show "seemed to be struggling for content," and "all the good jokes are taken by the time Kathy's weekly rant sees airtime."

Andrew Parker Bowles

Brigadier Andrew Henry Parker Bowles (born 27 December 1939) is a retired British Army officer. He is the former husband of Queen Camilla, now the wife of King Charles III.

Early life and family
Andrew Parker Bowles was born on 27 December 1939 as the eldest of four children to Derek Henry Parker Bowles of Donnington Castle House in Berkshire, who was a great-grandson of Thomas Parker, 6th Earl of Macclesfield, and his wife Ann Parker Bowles, daughter of multimillionaire racehorse owner Sir Humphrey de Trafford, 4th Baronet. His christening announcement in The Times listed his godparents as Sir Humphrey de Trafford, William Cavendish, Marquess of Hartington who married Kathleen "Kick" Kennedy (the younger sister of U.S. President John F. Kennedy), Miss Mary de Trafford and Miss Swinnerton-Dyer. His parents were friends of Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother. Some sources have stated that his godmother was also the Queen Mother. Parker Bowles was a page to the then Lord Chancellor Lord Simons at the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II. He is an uncle of Derek Paravicini, a blind autistic savant.

As an amateur jockey, Parker Bowles rode in the 1969 Grand National on his horse, The Fossa, finishing the race in 11th place. He played on Prince Charles's polo team during their younger days.

Military career
Parker Bowles was educated at the Benedictine Ampleforth College and the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst. He was commissioned into the Royal Horse Guards (The Blues) in 1960. He was aide-de-camp to the Governor-General of New Zealand, Sir Bernard Fergusson, in about 1965. He was then Adjutant Royal Horse Guards (The Blues) 1967–1969. The regiment became The Blues and Royals (Royal Horse Guards and 1st Dragoons) 1969, and he was the Adjutant of The Blues and Royals 1969–1970. Parker Bowles was promoted to major on 31 December 1971.

He was squadron leader of "B" squadron in 1972 on Operation Motorman in Ulster. Later he was Senior Military Liaison Officer to Lord Soames, when Soames was Governor of Southern Rhodesia during its transition to the majority rule state of Zimbabwe in 1979–1980. He was staff qualified (sq), and became a lieutenant colonel 30 June 1980. In 1980 he was awarded the Queen's Commendation for Bravery in Zimbabwe.

In 1981–1983, he was Commanding Officer of the Household Cavalry Mounted Regiment, and was commanding during the Hyde Park and Regent's Park bombings, when men and horses from his regiment were killed and injured by a terrorist bomb. He was one of the first to the scene, arriving on foot after hearing the bomb blast, and his orders led to the saving of later famous horse Sefton.

From 1987 to 1990, he was colonel Commanding the Household Cavalry and Silver Stick in Waiting to Queen Elizabeth II. On 30 June 1990 he was promoted to brigadier, and was director of the Royal Army Veterinary Corps 1991–1994. He retired in 1994.

Parker Bowles held the following ranks:
 * 23 January 1962, lieutenant
 * 23 July 1966, captain
 * 31 December 1971, major
 * 1 December 1980, seniority backdated to 30 June 1980, lieutenant colonel
 * 30 June 1987, colonel
 * 31 December 1990, seniority backdated to 30 June 1990, brigadier
 * 27 December 1994, retired

Relationships and children
His godchildren include the circus trapeze artist Lady Emma Herbert, who was a bridesmaid at his first marriage on 4 July 1973, and Zara Tindall, daughter of Princess Anne.

Parker Bowles dated Princess Anne for a few years, beginning in June 1970. Parker Bowles's father, Derek, was a friend to Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother. According to biographer Sally Bedell Smith, the relationship could not have been "very serious between Anne and Andrew because Andrew was Catholic", therefore a marriage was unlikely. The relationship ended sometime prior to Parker Bowles's engagement to Camilla Shand. Parker Bowles and Princess Anne remain friends. Their relationship was depicted in the third season of the Netflix series The Crown.

In 1973, after an intermittent relationship, Parker Bowles married Camilla Shand in a Roman Catholic ceremony. Shand was a former girlfriend of the then-Prince of Wales. After marriage, the couple lived at Bolehyde Manor and, later, Middlewick House near Corsham in Wiltshire, and had two children, Tom and Laura. Laura attended St Mary's School, Shaftesbury, a Catholic girls' school in Dorset, while Tom attended Eton College. Parker Bowles had numerous extramarital affairs throughout his marriage to Camilla, including with several of Camilla's friends. They divorced in 1995.

Parker Bowles married his long-time companion Rosemary Alice Pitman (née Dickinson; 17 June 1940 – 10 January 2010) in 1996, a year after his divorce from Camilla. She was previously married to Lt Col John Hugh Pitman, with whom she had three sons. The couple attended the wedding of Prince Charles and Camilla Parker Bowles in 2005. Rosemary died from complications due to cancer in 2010. Princess Anne was present at her funeral service at St Aldhelm's Roman Catholic Church, Malmesbury. Camilla attended her memorial service at the Guards Chapel in March 2010.

In December 2023, it was reported that Parker Bowles was in a relationship with the television presenter Anne Robinson.

In media
In 2003, Parker Bowles posed for the painting The Brigadier by Lucian Freud. In 2015 the work sold for $34.89 million at Christie's. He was portrayed by Simon Wilson in Whatever Love Means (2005) and by Andrew Buchan in The Crown (2019).

Honours

 * He was awarded an Honorary Fellowship by the Royal Veterinary College in 2003.

Talk:Sergey Karjakin

don't pronounce him "car-jacking"

His age
He is 19 years old and not 18. 213.8.6.227 (talk) 16:11, 19 January 2009 (UTC)

Youngest IM
I have done alot research and i can't find anyone who was younger then he was, i think it safe to say that he was no only the youngest GM but also the youngest IM in the history of chess. —Preceding unsigned comment added by GSP-Rush (talk • contribs) 18:16, 31 January 2010 (UTC)

Abenr (talk) 02:01, 20 September 2010 (UTC)

Childhood
Is nothing known of his family life and upbringing? We're told he learned chess at age five. Somehow I suspect it was not from reading some tome by Botvinnik. --Abenr (talk) 02:33, 28 September 2012 (UTC)

Marriage
Karjakin is supposedly no longer married. I saw it on some Russian site, but are there any English-language sources for it? Toccata quarta (talk) 12:51, 12 March 2013 (UTC)

Karjakin Rating Performance
Sergey Karjakin manage to tie with Anatoly Karpov for the highest rating performance in history by playing in the Norway Chess tournament of 2014. I got this by looking at the standings and looking at chess.geniusprophecy.com.

Political stuff and potential bias
A Ukrainian editor, who proudly shows all his political views in his user page, just added all the political stuff in the "Personal life" section citing an interview with "Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty" and reporting some quotes verbatim. Is all this political stuff really necessary? To me this is a potential bias. Sophia91 (talk) 16:04, 30 March 2016 (UTC)
 * It's not really a surprise as I remember when Karjakin made those comments years ago. He will be having to make more comments about it as we get nearer the WC match given he was born in the Crimea. I'd trim it back a bit but I don't mind much. After finishing the article I'm doing I'm going to do this one. Jkmaskell (talk) 16:13, 30 March 2016 (UTC)

Ukraine references
Raising a few issues relating to Karjakin and his Ukrainian background. I think "Ukrainian-born Russian" in the lead is both accurate and appropriate given he was born in the Crimea, which was part of Ukraine when he was born. Karjakin may personally have felt Russian, but that doesn't change the fact that he was Ukrainian and his notability stems from that. I don't consider "Crimea-born" an improvement. I reverted the references to Russian family ethnicity because the sources do not support the text it applies to. I know of one reference to their talking Russian rather than Ukrainian but I don't think it's enough to claim Russian descent. The category similarly isn't supported by the text. Opinions welcome. Jkmaskell (talk) 15:02, 2 May 2016 (UTC)
 * I agree that "Ukrainian-born Russian" is more appropriate and that an encyclopedia must stick to the facts. That said, I think that "Category: Ukrainian chess players" should be reinstated: players who changed federations/nationality are usually included in all nationality they represented (e.g. Alexei Shirov, Arkady Naiditsch etc., see List of nationality transfers in chess), and after all he became the youngest GM in history and won a Chess Olympiad while still representing Ukraine. Sophia91 (talk) 19:19, 2 May 2016 (UTC)

He made it clear in an interview that he's Russian, like many others in Ukraine (and the majority of Crimea, that has recently returned t to Russia). So why was the category of Ukrainian people of Russian descent removed?

He's not of Ukrainian ethnicity, and he wasn't born in Ukraine but in the Ukrainian SSR. I find it shocking people ignore his own words and his identity due to either ignorance or bias. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 192.115.97.253 (talk) 09:14, 3 May 2016 (UTC)

I don't have a problem with him being born in Ukrainian SSR being added, but not his ethnicity removed; he became a Russian citizen because he's of Russian ethnicity. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 192.115.97.253 (talk) 09:16, 3 May 2016 (UTC)
 * If there's no problem with the Ukrainian birth being added, then why remove it? As for Russian descent, speaking the language isn't enough to justify it and the sources added did not back it up. The birthplace bit was removed because it was already in the infobox. Reverting controversial edits is not vandalism. Jkmaskell (talk) 13:09, 3 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Because he wasn't born in Ukraine but Ukrainian SSR, and even that's debatable. Why? Because he was born in Crimea, that even before re-joining Russia was an autonomy in Ukraine due to its unique status.
 * So Crimea-born would make more sense!
 * You were not reverting a "controversial" edits, you were either pushing your own POV, or simply being ignorant to the facts.

Once again, in Russian there's a difference between Rossiyanin (a Russian national) and Russkiy (of Russian ethnicity). He specifically used the term Russkiy in his interview, indicating Russian ethnicity. It's not a matter of opinion or interpretation, it's a fact. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.57.185.19 (talk) 11:37, 5 May 2016 (UTC)
 * We need to minimize the politics in the article. Karjakin is above all a chess player, not a politician, and that's where the emphasis should be. This article is going to get a lot more attention over the next few months as Karjakin prepares for the World Championship match. Lame edit wars about Ukraine vs Ukrainian SSR vs Crimea are the last thing we need. I recommend trimming the stuff about his political views. Just something brief like "he supports Russian control of the Crimean Peninsula and is a strong supporter of Vladimir Putin" and leave it at that. MaxBrowne (talk) 14:58, 5 May 2016 (UTC)
 * OK, let's compromise. Go without the bracket bit in the lead but drop the "Prodigy" first line about birth and ethnicity. We have no sources other than Karjakin's one liner on his ethnicity, though if more is found we could consider it, and his birth is already in the infobox. We'll add the Ukrainian chess player category as suggested by Sophia. Fully agree on finding improvements for the political section. On a personal note, IP user, lay off the trash talk. I've been here long enough for the experienced editors to see how I work and I don't POV-push or vandalize. Be civil. Jkmaskell (talk) 16:16, 5 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Disagree. Karjakin's "one liner" is all we need about his ethnicity.
 * I don't know you, and my POV comment was in regards to me not understanding why you insist on removing someone's ethnicity. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.57.185.19 (talk) 11:59, 9 May 2016 (UTC)
 * The big question seems to be whether the quote is accurately reflected. Does "I always felt Russian(ethnic)" equate to "to a family of Russian ethnicity"? I disagree with the changes made to the article which have sought to Russify the article, a recent trend in Wikipedia. As we can see from earlier in this thread, I'm not the only user to have this concern. The burden of evidence lies on the person making the edit, not the person challenging it. Jkmaskell (talk) 13:38, 9 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Russkiy can only mean one thing, of Russian ethnicity, not nationality. Nationality is Rossiyanin. He referred to himself as Ruskiy, and said he'd always been one. And there's nothing surprising about it, the majority of the population of Crimea is ethnically Russian.
 * I fail to see how the article is "russified". The guy is of Russian ethnicity, he renounced his Ukrainian citizenship for a Russian one, and not only he represents Russia, but it seems like he's very patriotic of it and it's important for him. It's not "russifying", it's being mor accurate. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.57.185.19 (talk) 13:53, 10 May 2016 (UTC)
 * I'm not debating the translation anymore, simply whether his saying that he always felt/sensed like an ethnic Russian is enough to say that his whole family is of Russian descent. The wording in the text is stretching what the quote says. The plan was to sort this page out properly with full detail etc, but frankly it's not worth the hassle if this is what I'm going to walk into at the first instance. I wash my hands of this page. Jkmaskell (talk) Jkmaskell (talk) 14:55, 10 May 2016 (UTC)

Spelling
Tоварищи, let's not forget that Illya Kuryakin used the psuedo-transcription Kuryakin, which seems closer to the pronouncer kɐˈrʲakʲɪn than Karjakin. Sca (talk) 17:06, 31 December 2016 (UTC)

Russian chess grandmaster (formerly representing Ukraine)
Is there some universal thing on wikipedia how we call chess players or sports players in general?

https://ell.stackexchange.com/questions/324239/african-american-or-filipino-american-how-do-you-distinguish-americans-of-a

Eg

 * 1) Wesley So - 'Filipino and American'
 * 2) Anish Giri - just 'Dutch'
 * 3) Sergey Karjakin - 'Russian chess grandmaster (formerly representing Ukraine)'
 * 4) Fabiano Caruana - 'Italian and American chess grandmaster'
 * 5) Alexandra Kosteniuk - 'Russian and Swiss chess grandmaster who was'
 * 6) Bobby Fischer - just 'American'

Well apart from Anish & Sergey, I think the point is regardless of their current nationality / nationalities, say all the countries that have represented, hence

 * 1) Bobby, as a chess player, isn't Icelandic.
 * 2) Wesley So, Fabi & Alexandra are considered present tense resp Filipino Italian & Russian

But why don't Anish & Sergey follow this pattern? Thewriter006 (talk) 02:32, 14 June 2023 (UTC)

Hans Prutz

Hans Prutz (20 May 1843 – 29 January 1929) was a German historian.

Son of Robert Eduard Prutz (1816–1872), the essayist and historian, Hans was born at Jena, Saxe-Weimar-Eisenach, and was educated at the universities of Jena and Berlin.

In 1865 appeared his monograph on Henry the Lion, duke of Saxony and Bavaria, which was followed by three volumes on the emperor Frederick Barbarossa (Kaiser Friedrich I., Danzig, 1871–1874). Meanwhile from 1863 to 1873 he was teaching in secondary schools. In 1874 he received a government commission to undertake explorations in Syria, particularly at Tyre, and as a result be published in 1876 Aus Phönicien, a collection of historical and geographical sketches. In the same year appeared his first work on the Crusades, Quellenbeiträge zur Geschichte der Kreuzzüge, and a series of monographs on the same subject culminated in 1883 in the notable Kulturgeschichte der Kreuzzüge. Then turning to a wider theme Prutz contributed to Oncken's university history the two volumes on the political history of Europe during the Middle Ages (Staatengeschichte des Abendlandes Im Mittelalter, Berlin, 1885–1887). In 1888 he reverted to a subject which he had touched upon in his Geheimlehre und Geheimstatuten des Tempelherrenordens (Danzig, 1879), translated into English as The Secret Teaching of the Knights Templar (2015), and wrote the history of the rise and fall of the Templars (Entwickelung und Untergang des Tempelherrenordens).

His Preussische Geschichte (4 vols., Stuttgart, 1899–1902), which is perhaps his most notable work, is an attempt to apply scientific rather than patriotic canons to a subject which has been mainly in the hands of historians with a patriotic bias. He also wrote Aus des Grossen Kurfürsten letzten Jahren (Berlin, 1897) and Bismarcks Bildung, ihre Quellen und ihre Äusserungen (Berlin, 1904).

In 1902 Prutz resigned the chair of history in the University of Königsberg, which he had held since 1877, and took up his residence at Munich.

Talk:USS Amphion (ID-1888)

I'm currently updating and filling out this article, since whoever created it didn't bother to.--Kross 06:33, Feb 11, 2005 (UTC)talk

Suggest rename to SS Köln (1899)
The "USS Amphion" only existed April to September 1919 engaged in routine return of troops from Europe after WW I and except for the USN's diligence in recording ships would have vanished into history. The most "notable" aspects of the ship named Amphion were two submarine incidents while operated by USSB as a U.S. Army Chartered Transport. Being an animal transport there are not likely to be many family members of those transported searching for the ship "grandpa" went to the war aboard during those two years. That is much more likely to be descendants (or other interested parties) of immigrant passengers aboard Köln (2) in its service centered on Galveston and Baltimore with occasional runs to Quebec and Montreal. Suggest rename to SS Köln (1899) as best fit.

The most interesting thing about the ship for those of us with deep ship interests is really the example of the types of ships and services they performed during a period of shipping history. What an "awning deck" ship might be and what type of service it might be assigned. What kind of transportation was going on during a period — a surprising amount of animal transport took place in those early steamships as well as immigrants in steerage (my first thought when I saw "Galveston") — with what types of ships. The ship itself is not particularly notable, even with the subs, but it is important as part of the fabric of marine transportation during a particular period. 72.196.202.60 (talk) 13:20, 22 November 2018 (UTC)

The Low Spark of High Heeled Boys (song)

"The Low Spark of High Heeled Boys" is the title track from the 1971 album by British rock band Traffic, written by Jim Capaldi and Steve Winwood. Despite never being released as a single due to its long duration, it became a staple of North American AOR-format FM radio stations in the 1970s and still receives airplay on classic rock radio today.

Lyrics and composition
The title refers to an inscription written by diminutive American actor Michael J. Pollard in Jim Capaldi's notebook while they were both in Morocco. Capaldi and Pollard were planning to work on a movie that was never filmed. Capaldi said:
 * Pollard and I would sit around writing lyrics all day, talking about Bob Dylan and The Band, thinking up ridiculous plots for the movie. Before I left Morocco, Pollard wrote in my book 'The Low Spark of High Heeled Boys'. For me, it summed him up. He had this tremendous rebel attitude. He walked around in his cowboy boots, his leather jacket. At the time he was a heavy little dude. It seemed to sum up all the people of that generation who were just rebels. The 'Low Spark', for me, was the spirit, high-spirited. You know, standing on a street corner. The low rider. The 'Low Spark' meaning that strong undercurrent at the street level.

At 11 minutes and 44 seconds, it is the longest track on the album. The song (and the album) received wide praise, both in print and on broadcasts. It begins with a gradual fade-in and ends with a slow fade-out. The signature two-chord piano vamp enters after the fade-in, cued by the dry rattle of a vibraslap. Verses are sparsely arranged with a slow deliberate pace in D minor, contrasting with double-time densely-layered pop choruses modulating to D major. The tune fades out with a dissonant, reverberating final chord sustained over the vamp.

Capaldi had originally written only two verses of lyrics. He quickly wrote the third verse while Winwood was recording the song's vocal and slipped it in front of him in time for him to sing it.

Recordings
The album cut features extended solos, by Chris Wood on tenor saxophone and by Winwood both on piano and on a Hammond organ distorted through a fuzzbox. David Lubin wrote in his album review that appeared in Rolling Stone in 1972, "Each member of the group lays down a track or tracks which could in parts stand alone".

A live rendition of the song is the opening track on Traffic's only concert video, which was recorded at the Santa Monica Civic Auditorium in Santa Monica, California on 21 February 1972, with the lineup of Winwood, Capaldi, Wood, Rebop Kwaku Baah (percussion), David Hood (bass), and Roger Hawkins (drums). Another live recording with the same lineup plus extra keyboardist Barry Beckett appears on the album On the Road.

An alternate mix of the song is available on the 2010 box set Revolutions – The Very Best of Steve Winwood. The Revolutions version has a longer running time of 12:26. The intro is longer and various instrumental embellishments (mainly from saxophone and percussion) are featured that are not heard in the original album version.

In 2022, Winwood promoted on YouTube the release of its parent album in Dolby Atmos format with a solo rendition of the title song on piano.

In addition to being performed solo by both Capaldi and Winwood after the breakup of Traffic, the song has been covered by Rickie Lee Jones, Widespread Panic, The Dead, Phil Lesh and Friends, and EMF among others.

Samuel Courtauld (art collector)

Samuel Courtauld (7 May 1876 – 1 December 1947) was an English industrialist who is best remembered as an art collector. He founded The Courtauld Institute of Art in London in 1932 and, after a series of gifts during the 1930s, bequeathed his collection to the institute on his death.

By the early 20th century, the Courtauld family business had become a major international company, having successfully developed and marketed rayon, an artificial fibre and inexpensive silk substitute. Samuel Courtauld took charge of the firm from 1908 as director and as chairman from 1921 to 1946.

Personal life
Courtauld was the son of Sydney Courtauld (1840–1899) and Sarah Lucy Sharpe (1844–1906), and the great-nephew of textile magnate Samuel Courtauld. He was educated at Rugby School. After he finished school he visited Germany and France and studied textile technology to prepare to work in the family business. In 1901, he became director of one of the factories (in Halstead, Essex), then in 1908 the CEO of all plants of the company.

He became interested in art after seeing the Hugh Lane collection on exhibition at the Tate Gallery in 1917. However, his career as a collector started in 1922 following an exhibition of French art at the Burlington Fine Arts Club. Courtauld was one of the first British collectors to display interest in French Impressionist and Post-Impressionist paintings. During the 1920s, he assembled an extensive collection including masterpieces by Vincent van Gogh (Self-Portrait with Bandaged Ear and Peach Blossom in the Crau previously owned by Anna Boch ), Édouard Manet (A Bar at the Folies-Bergère), Paul Cézanne (Montagne Sainte-Victoire) and Pierre-Auguste Renoir (La Loge). The core elements of his collection were acquired between 1926 and 1930, though his passion dwindled somewhat following the death of his wife Elizabeth (known as Lil) in 1931. Samuel founded The Courtauld Institute of Art with Viscount Lee of Fareham and Sir Robert Witt in 1930.

Courtauld provided the bulk of the finances for the founding of The Courtauld Institute of Art. His wealth came from the textile business, but on both sides of his family there were connections with the arts and traditions of patronage going back several generations. Courtauld loved pictures and wrote poems about them. On the advice of Roger Fry and others he bought French Impressionists and Cézannes and took out a lease on the best Robert Adam house in London, Home House, 20 Portman Square, in which to display them - a novel and stunning combination. His example was emulated by his younger brother Stephen, who converted the medieval ruins of Eltham Palace into an Art Deco mansion. Samuel Courtauld was the real Maecenas of the trio, and when his wife died in 1931, he made over the house in Portman Square, together with the pictures, for the use of the new institute until such time as permanent accommodation could be found for them. In the event the Portman Square house was to be the institute's home for almost sixty years. Courtauld also created a £50,000 acquisition fund for the Tate and National Gallery in London, helping lay the foundations of national collections of Impressionist and Post-Impressionist art. He declined a peerage in 1937.

Family
Samuel Courtauld married Elizabeth Theresa Frances Kelsey on 20 June 1901. The children from this marriage included Sydney Elizabeth Courtauld (1902–1954), who married the politician Rab Butler and was the mother of Richard C. Butler and Adam Butler.

Samuel's younger brother, Stephen Courtauld, was also an arts patron and is remembered for his work on restoring Eltham Palace. Augustine Courtauld (1904–1959), Samuel's cousin, was an explorer, noted for his pioneering observations of the climate of the ice cap of Greenland.

Unity Party (Australia)

The Unity Party was a small multiculturist party in Australia, formed in 1997 and primarily active in the state of New South Wales. It was formed with the aim of opposing the rise of the controversial anti-immigration politician Pauline Hanson. Although initially billed as a party to unite Australians of all ethnicities against racism, Unity failed to draw significant support outside Australia's East Asian ethnic communities. After the demise of Pauline Hanson as a political force (prior to her return to politics in the late 2010s), Unity shifted focus onto ethnic community affairs at a local government level.

Formation
Unity attracted much attention when it was founded in 1997, with Peter Wong, Mary Kalantzis, Bill Cope and Jason Yat-Sen Li among those involved in its creation.

The party ran candidates in almost every House of Representatives seat at the 1998 election. While they had hopes of winning a Senate seat in New South Wales with Jason Li, he fell well short. However, the party outpolled the Australian Democrats and Australian Greens in some House of Representatives seats. In the NSW Federal seat of Fowler, investment banker Andrew Su outpolled both the Democrats and One Nation. Subsequently, in the 1999 NSW State Election, Su went on to poll more than the Liberals, Greens and Democrats in the safe Labor seat of Cabramatta.

The Unity Party was formally registered by the Australian Electoral Commission on 25 August 1998 under the name "Unity – Say No to Hanson".

Decline
As the Hanson movement began to disintegrate, it also negated Unity's main platform, and the party soon fell into internal tensions. The party's founder, Dr. Peter Wong, won a seat in the New South Wales Legislative Council with just 1% of the vote. This came against the backdrop of a series of resignations, including that of Li. Wong soon stepped down as leader in favour of a white Australian in an attempt to broaden the party's base.

Unity's activities largely died down throughout 2000 and Wong acted as a virtual independent in the Legislative Council. However, with the re-emergence of Hanson's One Nation party at the 2001 Western Australian state election, the party again came together and put together a large slate of candidates for the federal election that year. Despite having several prominent candidates (such as former Melbourne City Council member Wellington Lee in Victoria), they fell even further short of winning a seat in either house of federal parliament.

After their failure to break into federal parliament in 2001, Unity largely shifted its attentions to local government, running a number of candidates for local councils in largely non-white areas, primarily in suburban Sydney. It was deregistered by the AEC on 13 November 2003 for failing to have at least 500 members as required by electoral law. The party did not run any candidates in the 2004 federal election.

Wong continued to represent Unity in the NSW Parliament, until the expiry of his term in March 2007. At the March 2007 NSW state election, lead Unity Upper House candidate, Le Lam, won 1.2% of the vote, which was insufficient to gain election. Consequently, Unity no longer holds seats in any Australian parliament.

The party did not contest the 2011 NSW state election, although Pauline Hanson did.

The party contested one New South Wales Legislative Assembly seat (Kogarah) in the 2015 state election, receiving 7.9% of the vote.

Youth faction
Unity also had a youth division, called Young Unity.

Wikipedia:Peer review/Tamil language/archive1

Tamil language
It is to a certain extent self nomination. I did a major rewrite and formatting. The current article has good content, but needs copyediting and evaluation by "third party" readers. Someone who has good knowledge of linguistics-related topics would be of help. This can potentially become a Featured article. -- Sundar 06:37, Feb 11, 2005 (UTC)
 * I like it! Well written and interesting. I'm certainly no linguist, though, I have no way of knowing about correctness or comprehensiveness. But a point worth noting is this: User:Dbachmann recently had to withdraw Runic alphabet from FAC because many people were complaining they couldn't see the runes. Apparently the coding issues for special characters are quite intricate, and I strongly recommend you try to find out before FAC whether the special characters display all right in different browsers. (I use Mozilla 1.6 for mac OSX, and I get question marks for the Tamil characters :-(.) It won't help to tell people that they ought to be able to see them, that their browser is faulty, or that all they have to do is download a special font (nobody wants to do that, and often it doesn't even turn out to help): if the characters don't show up in at least the most common browsers, without the reader having to take special measures for it, I don't think a language article has any chance on FAC.
 * Just a detail about the infobox: what is the "region" heading for? In the articles on Swedish, German, English, Dutch, it's used for the larger, supra-national unit (Northern Europe, etc). Here, the "Region" box contains instead the smaller unit, the Indian state Tamil Nadu. Do you know which is correct? Finnish language does it the same way as here, but I kind of suspect a big-ass language article like English language would have it right. Bishonen | Talk 21:29, 14 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * Thanks for your comments, Bishonen. Tamil speakers are now concentrated in pockets across the world. I'll remove the region box. As for the display of characters, even I'm not able to see them on my Konqueror browser. One way is to move the actual table of alphabet to the main article, Tamil alphabet. Let me try that. Thanks again. -- Sundar 04:25, Feb 15, 2005 (UTC)
 * I've made the two changes: 1) changed region to TN + pockets across the world 2) replaced tables with images. Feel free to refine it further. -- Sundar 08:41, Feb 15, 2005 (UTC)

 * Please do have a look at Talk:Tamil language and comment. -- Sundar 05:48, Feb 16, 2005 (UTC)

Robert Prutz

Robert Eduard Prutz (30 May 1816 – 21 June 1872) was a German poet and prose writer.

He was born at Stettin, modern day Szczecin. He studied philology, philosophy and history at Berlin, Breslau, and Halle, and in the last-named became associated, after taking his degree, with Arnold Ruge in the publication of the Hallesche Jahrbücher. Subjected on account of his advanced political views to police surveillance, he removed to Jena, where, on the strength of an excellent monograph, Der Göttinger Dichterbund (1841), he hoped to obtain an academic appointment. He was, however, expelled from the town for offending against the press laws, and it was not until 1846 that he received permission to lecture in Berlin. From 1849 to 1859 he was extraordinary professor of literature at Halle, but retired in 1859 to Stettin, where he died in 1872.

Prutz belonged to the group of political poets who dominated German literature between 1841 and 1848; his poems are more conspicuous for their liberal tendency than their poetry. Among them may be mentioned Ein Märchen (1841); Gedichte (1841); Aus der Heimat (1858); Neue Gedichte (1860); Herbstrosen (i865); Buch der Liebe (1869). Among his novels are noteworthy, Das Engelchen (1851) and Der Musikantenturm (1855). Much more important are his contributions to literary history and criticism: Vorlesungen über die Geschichte des deutschen Theaters (1847); Ludwig Holberg (1857); Die deutsche Literatur der Gegenwart (1859), and Menschen und Bücher (1862). Prutz also wrote some dramas of little merit.

His son Hans Prutz was a notable historian.

Krabbe disease

Krabbe disease (KD) (also known as globoid cell leukodystrophy or galactosylceramide lipidosis) is a rare and often fatal lysosomal storage disease that results in progressive damage to the nervous system. KD involves dysfunctional metabolism of sphingolipids and is inherited in an autosomal recessive pattern. The disease is named after the Danish neurologist Knud Krabbe (1885–1961).

Signs and symptoms
Symptoms in asymptomatic infantile-onset (<12 months after birth) and later-onset Krabbe disease present themselves differently. Of individuals with infantile-onset Krabbe disease, 85–90% display progressive neurologic deterioration in infancy and death before the age of two. Symptoms include irritability, fevers, limb stiffness, seizures, feeding difficulties (like GERD), vomiting, staring episodes, and slowing of mental and motor development. In the first stages of the disease, doctors often mistake the symptoms for those of cerebral palsy. Other symptoms include muscle weakness, spasticity, deafness, optic atrophy, optic nerve enlargement, blindness, paralysis, and difficulty when swallowing. Prolonged weight loss may also occur.

10–15% of individuals with later-onset Krabbe disease have a much slower disease progression. These individuals may also display symptoms such as esotropia, slurred speech, and slow development or loss of motor milestones.

Causes
Krabbe disease is caused by mutations in the GALC gene located on chromosome 14 (14q31), which is inherited in an autosomal recessive manner. Mutations in the GALC gene cause a deficiency of an enzyme called galactosylceramidase. In rare cases, it may be caused by a lack of active saposin A (a derivative of prosaposin).

The buildup of unmetabolized lipids adversely affects the growth of the nerve's protective myelin sheath (the covering that insulates many nerves) resulting in demyelination and severe progressive degeneration of motor skills. As part of a group of disorders known as leukodystrophies, Krabbe disease results from the imperfect growth and development of myelin.

Galactosylceramidase deficiency also results in a buildup of a glycosphingolipid called psychosine, which is toxic to oligodendrocytes, a type of non-neuronal cell found in the nervous system, collectively termed neuroglia.

Diagnosis
There are a few ways to help pinpoint the presence of Krabbe disease. Newborn screening for Krabbe disease includes assaying dried blood cells for GALC enzyme activity and molecular analysis for evidence of GALC enzyme mutations. Infants displaying low enzyme activity and/or enzyme mutations should be referred for additional diagnostic testing and neurological examination. 0-5% GALC enzyme activity is observed in all symptomatic individuals with Krabbe disease. High concentration of psychosine in dried blood spots may also be identified as a marker for Krabbe disease. A 2011 study discovered that individuals with Krabbe disease, more so in later-onset individuals, tend to have an abnormal increase in CSF protein concentration.

The disease may be diagnosed by its characteristic grouping of certain cells (multinucleated globoid cells), nerve demyelination and degeneration, and destruction of brain cells. Special stains for myelin (e.g., luxol fast blue) may be used to aid diagnosis.

New York, Missouri and Kentucky include Krabbe in the newborn screening panel. Indiana started screening in 2020.

Treatment
Although there is no known cure for Krabbe disease, bone marrow transplantation or hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) has been shown to benefit cases early in the course of the disease. Generally, treatment for the disorder is symptomatic and supportive. Physical therapy may help maintain or increase muscle tone and circulation.

A 15-year study on the developmental outcomes of children with Krabbe disease who underwent HSCT in the first seven weeks after birth found that patients have a better prognosis for both lifespan and functionality, with a slower progression of the disease. Even symptomatic individuals with later-onset Krabbe disease may benefit from HSCT if diagnosed early enough. Umbilical-cord blood is typically used as the source for the transplant stem cells. Clinical trials for gene therapy are currently enrolling patients.

Management
Symptom management can be particularly difficult for individuals with infantile onset, as symptoms tend to progress rapidly. Because there is no treatment for Krabbe disease, management of the condition is typically supportive and aimed at alleviating symptoms. Frequent evaluation is encouraged in order to anticipate the onset of, and preparation for, certain symptoms. Physical therapy can help to alleviate motor difficulties and increase strength, mobility, and flexibility.

Gastrostomy tubes are used to circumvent feeding difficulties and prevent aspiration. A simultaneous gastrostomy tube insertion and Nissen fundoplication procedure is commonly performed to prevent the need for a secondary surgical procedure. Individuals with Krabbe disease with severe motor deficits tend to be more susceptible to overfeeding, as they require less calorie consumption and thus consume fewer calories than what caretakers may expect. There is also evidence that routine vaccines may accelerate disease progression; many individuals with Krabbe disease tend to not follow traditional vaccination procedures.

Prognosis
In infantile Krabbe disease, death usually occurs in early childhood. A 2011 study found one-, two-, and three-year survival rates of 60%, 26%, and 14%, respectively, with a few surviving longer. Patients with late-onset Krabbe disease tend to have a slower progression of the disease and live significantly longer.

Epidemiology
This disease does not only impact humans, but other animals such as monkeys, mice, and dogs have been observed to develop Krabbe disease as well. While certain gene deletions are more frequent than others, novel mutations resulting in Krabbe disease have been discovered worldwide. Most commonly, the underlying cause of the disease is a deletion of a GALC gene, which causes a deficiency in the GALC enzyme. This is the circumstance in 80% of patients who have European and Mexican origins. The mortality rate of early infantile Krabbe disease is 90% before the age of two. Later onset of symptoms is associated with longer life expectancy, with older children generally surviving two to seven years after the initial diagnosis.

Krabbe disease occurs in about one in 100,000 births. Because the disease is genetic, incidence rates vary widely from population to population. The incidence rate is extremely low in Japan, with between 5 and 10 cases per 1,000,000 live births. In the United States, Krabbe disease occurs in approximately 1 out of every 100,000 live births. Scandinavian countries report incidence rates of one in 50,000 births. In certain communities Krabbe disease is much more frequent, such as the Druze community in Israel, which has an incidence rate of 6 out of every 1,000 live births. This higher rate is thought to be due in part to a high frequency of consanguineous marriages. Almost 35% of all Druze marriages were found to be between first-cousin familial relations. There have been no reported cases of Krabbe disease among the Jewish community.

Time of onset also varies in frequency by location. Early infantile Krabbe Disease is the most common form of the disease overall, but Nordic communities tend to have even higher rates of early infantile onset Krabbe disease, while Southern European countries have higher incidences of late-onset cases. It is difficult to estimate the incidence of adult-onset Krabbe disease, due to discrepancies in classifying cases late-onset versus adult-onset.

Society and culture
Former Buffalo Bills quarterback Jim Kelly has been a leader in gaining recognition and research funding for Krabbe disease following the diagnosis of his son, Hunter, in 1997. Hunter Kelly died of the disease on August 5, 2005, at the age of eight. They created Hunter's Hope - a foundation that seeks to advance Newborn Screening, research and treatments, and provides support to families of leukodystrophy children.

Family advocacy is a critical part of advancing newborn screening, and many Krabbe families have made significant advocacy progress in their states.

As an example, Cove Ellis is a child from Georgia, United States who was diagnosed with the disease in early 2016. Ellis' family, along with her community, has worked to raise awareness of the disease and helped pass "Cove's Law", which provides parents the option to have prenatal screening for the disease, which can, potentially, save the child from the morbidity and mortality of Krabbe disease.

Other animals
Krabbe disease is found in mice and may also be found in cats and dogs, particularly the West Highland White Terriers and Cairn Terriers.

Greendale, Chilliwack

Greendale is a primarily agricultural settlement within Chilliwack, British Columbia, Canada, located 92 km east of the City of Vancouver. Greendale is located on the west side of Chilliwack, bordering the east side of the City of Abbotsford. The Vedder River forms the border between Greendale and Yarrow which lies to the South. Greendale was originally called Sumas, but got renamed in 1951 to avoid confusion with the adjoining municipality, the District of Sumas (now part of the City of Abbotsford), as well as Sumas, Washington. The area was once a 10000 acre lake at the base of Sumas Mountain. Sumas Lake was drained in the early 1920s. Greendale has experienced two major floods, after the completed drainage, in 1894 and 1948.

The Great Blue Heron Nature Reserve is located in Greendale.
