Bonnie Bramlett

Bonnie Bramlett (born Bonnie Lynn O'Farrell, November 8, 1944) is an American singer and occasional actress known for performing with her husband, Delaney Bramlett, as Delaney & Bonnie. She continues to sing as a solo artist.

Early life
Bonnie O'Farrell was born in Granite City, Illinois, the daughter of a steelworker. When she was young her parents divorced and remarried other spouses. She was raised with an extended family that included four half-and step-siblings. She began singing as a child. When she was five years old, she sang "Beautiful Golden Harbor" at the family church in Granite City. Bonnie started her musical career at the age of fifteen singing around St. Louis. She performed as a backup singer for blues musicians such as Albert King and Little Milton, and R&B singer Fontella Bass.

Bonnie was inspired by Tina Turner to pursue a singing career. In her teens, she saw Ike & Tina Turner perform at a club in nearby East St. Louis. Bonnie became the first white Ikette in the Ike & Tina Turner Revue. She filled in for Ikette Jessie Smith who had briefly quit after her boyfriend, Sam Rhodes, a bassist in the Kings of Rhythm was fired. Bramlett recalled: "Jessie left when Sam left and they needed an Ikette. I was there so I went with them. For three days. I was 17 and I was white and my mother wouldn't let me stay any longer than that. I could only help them out, she said. So I just put on a dark wig because I'm blonde and Man Tan because I'm white and helped them out."

Delaney & Bonnie
Eventually Bramlett moved to Los Angeles to escape abuse by her father and stepfather. In 1967, she met musician Delaney Bramlett (1939–2008), performing at the opening of a bowling alley with the "Shindogs", the house band of the television show Shindig!. They were married a week later. The duo signed with Stax Records and became known as Delaney & Bonnie. They soon toured Europe with the British rock guitarist Eric Clapton. With frequent drop-in performances by other noted musicians like Duane Allman, George Harrison, and Dave Mason, the group became known as Delaney & Bonnie & Friends. Their album On Tour with Eric Clapton (1970) reached #29 on the Billboard 200. Between 1970 and 1972, the duo had seven songs chart on the Billboard Hot 100, including their best-known single "Never Ending Song of Love" which peaked at #13 and a cover of Dave Mason's "Only You Know and I Know" which peaked at #20.

With Leon Russell, Delaney and Bonnie co-wrote "Superstar", popularized by the Carpenters, and with Eric Clapton Bonnie wrote the classic "Let It Rain", which is included on Clapton's eponymous first album. The song '"Superstar'" was originally written by Bonnie Bramlett and Rita Coolidge as detailed in the autobiography 'Delta Lady' by Rita Coolidge and Michael Walker. Eric Clapton added some embellishments to the music.

In 1969, The Rolling Stones originally asked Bonnie to sing a duet with Mick Jagger on their song "Gimme Shelter", but Delaney refused to let her perform with the Stones. The Stones then asked soul and gospel singer Merry Clayton to sing on the track. It remains the most prominent contribution to a Rolling Stones track by a female vocalist. According to Bonnie, just before a concert tour in 1970, the duo's band abruptly quit. However, Delaney claims it was Bonnie who didn't show up for the tour.

Bonnie and Delaney Bramlett had small roles in the 1971 film Vanishing Point and in 1974's Catch My Soul.

Their last album together, D&B Together (1972) released #133 on the Billboard 200. Delaney and Bonnie disbanded, both musically and maritally, in 1972. Bonnie Bramlett continued her career as a solo songwriter and recording artist.

Solo career
She released her first solo album Sweet Bonnie Bramlett in 1973, recorded with the Average White Band whose name she initially proposed. That album presaged the Disco movement, particularly with the track Crazy 'Bout My Baby played heavily in underground dance clubs like the Gallery in New York. The song is featured on Nicky Siano's Legendary The Gallery on Soul Jazz Records. Her second album It's Time peaked at #168 on the Billboard 200 in 1975.

In 1973/74, Bramlett toured the United States and Canada, with her band, 'The Entertainers', promoting her new album and herself as a single artist. That musical entourage featured: Michael 'Papabax' Baxter on the keyboards; Little Moe Mosely on drums; Doc Schwebke on bass; Michael Elliot, Donnie Dacus, and Phillip John Diaz on guitars; Larry Williams, Jimmy Reed and Big John Rayford on saxophones; background singers; Carolyn (Brandt) Corlew, Lagatha (Smallwood) Wharton, and Lea Santos..and Bandleader, Gabe Flemings on trumpet.

Bramlett continued to contribute vocals to recordings by other artists, including Little Feat and the Allman Brothers Band.

In 1979, Bramlett travelled to Havana, Cuba, to participate in the historic Havana Jam festival, alongside Stephen Stills, the CBS Jazz All-Stars, the Trio of Doom, Fania All-Stars, Billy Swan, Weather Report, Mike Finnegan, Kris Kristofferson, Rita Coolidge and Billy Joel, plus an array of Cuban artists such as Irakere, Pacho Alonso, Tata Güines and Orquesta Aragón. Her performance appears in Havana Jam '79 a documentary film by Ernesto Juan Castellanos.

While on tour with Stills in 1979, Bramlett punched Elvis Costello in the face at a hotel bar in Columbus, Ohio, after Costello referred to James Brown as a "jive-ass nigger" and Ray Charles a "blind, ignorant nigger." Costello apologized at a press conference in New York City a few days later, stating he had been drunk and had been trying to be obnoxious in order to bring the conversation to a swift conclusion. According to Costello, "it became necessary for me to outrage these people with about the most obnoxious and offensive remarks that I could muster."

Bramlett guest-starred in an episode of Fame in 1986.

The Bandaloo Doctors and Roseanne
After exploring gospel music in the 1980s, Bramlett married Danny Sheridan in 1988 and she changed her professional name to Bonnie Sheridan. He became her manager and produced her next recordings. She fronted their group the Bandaloo Doctors, with their self-proclaimed "revolutionary hard rockin' blues." The group's music attracted the admiration of many Hollywood celebrities. In 1990, Bonnie met Roseanne Barr at a rehab program fund-raiser, and she was soon cast as a semi-regular on the hit ABC series Roseanne. Bonnie Bramlett (credited as Bonnie Sheridan) played a co-worker and friend (named Bonnie) of Roseanne Barr's character Roseanne Conner, with Danny Sheridan occasionally writing music and appearing as the character Hank the bass player.

In 1992, the Bandaloo Doctors toured as the opening act for Ringo Starr.

Later years
Bonnie was cast in the 1991 movie The Doors, playing a bartender. She also appeared in the Andrew Davis film The Guardian (2006), starring Kevin Costner and Ashton Kutcher.

In 2002, Bramlett returned to her musical roots, releasing the album I'm Still the Same. In 2006, she was a backup vocalist for the Southern rock artist Shooter Jennings on his album Electric Rodeo. She declined to accompany him on his ensuing tour. Bramlett later sang "Proud Mary" on the 2009 tribute album for Ike Turner titled Rocket 88: Tribute to Ike Turner.

Marriage and children
In 1967, Bramlett met Delaney Bramlett during a gig performing at the opening of a bowling alley. They were married a week later. Their first daughter, Rebekka, who is now also a singer, was born in 1968. Their marriage was marred by violence due to their cocaine addictions. Bonnie Bramlett told People that they had an abusive relationship: "We fought a lot—heavy-duty physical stuff. It wasn't nice to be around, and I'm sure it wasn't fun to watch." In 1972, she divorced Delaney, leaving him and his mother with her own daughters, Suzanne and Rebekka, and the two daughters Delaney had brought to the marriage, Michelle and Mikkol.

Bramlett later rebuilt her relationship with her daughters. Rebekka became a singer, professionally known as Bekka Bramlett. She joined Fleetwood Mac in 1993 after the departure of Stevie Nicks, and appeared on their album Time.

Bramlett began dating musician Danny Sheridan in 1983. They were married in 1988, but later divorced. She credited Danny Sheridan for saving her from her addictions and her friend Roseanne Barr for giving her work on her show.

Drug addiction
Bramlett began using cocaine during her marriage to Delaney. After their marriage ended, Bramlett suffered from depression. While visiting her friend Gregg Allman's farmland in Juliette, Georgia, she planned to commit suicide by shooting herself with a shotgun in December 1976. Instead, she thought about her children, shot the gun up in the air, and then called the hospital. She continued to struggle with her addictions to cocaine, pills, and alcohol throughout the decade. In 1982, she underwent more hospital treatment that proved unsuccessful. Eventually, with the help of Danny Sheridan, she joined a 12-step recovery program.

Further comments should be made on the article's talk page rather than here so that this page is preserved as an historic record. The result of the debate was NO CONSENSUS. dbenbenn | talk 15:41, 4 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Star Wars MUSH
Non-notable vanity article. --Spinboy 20:55, 17 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete, advertisement, mu*s inherently non-notable. 22 players online when I checked. —Korath (Talk) 21:45, Feb 17, 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete, concur with supra. Ellsworth 23:25, 17 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep, I believe that it is historically significant, and the article seems well formed. Should we remove Coca-Cola and Pepsi because those articles could be construed as "advertisement"?  --Oarias 23:36, 17 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * Pepsi and Coca-Cola are notable. This mush is not. --Spinboy 23:44, 17 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * Well ok, but we know at least 22 (I assume living) people are involved with it. Who defines what is "notable" and "not-notable", or what will be so in the future?  (Is there a number limit to "notable"?)There is some pretty obscure stuff in Wikipedia!    I have no relation to this article BTW (not to mention that I feel that MUD's/MUSH's are pretty boring), but the article looked like it needs an advocate.    --Oarias 00:04, 18 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Question: Who decides what is notable?  Answer: the people voting on VfD, hopefully with some deference to past decisions.   22 people playing a game on-line is not notable at all.   It might have had a lot more players in the past, or be important in the history of MUSH's in some way. But barring some evidence of this, it would seem to be not notable enough for an encyclopedia article --BM 00:50, 18 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. -Sean Curtin 01:18, Feb 18, 2005 (UTC)
 * Week keep I would say that a MU* is certainly notable if it was one of the first of a series (e.g. DikuMUD, CircleMUD, TinyMUD). It may also be notable if it is very popular and/or has been around for a long time. Note that these criteria are subjective. I think Star Wars MUSH may be included on the latter criteria, but as the article was apparently written by one of its fans I'd like to have some substantiation on its popularity. Radiant! 09:11, Feb 18, 2005 (UTC)
 * Btw even if the subject is decided to be notable, I feel that the article requires rewriting, as the lists of admins, planets and legends are not particularly encyclopedic. Radiant! 09:11, Feb 18, 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep, but with reservations. Article needs rewrite and expansion. Megan1967 07:50, 25 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Gheorghe Țițeica

Gheorghe Țițeica (4 October 1873 – 5 February 1939) publishing as George or Georges Tzitzéica) was a Romanian mathematician who made important contributions in geometry. He is recognized as the founder of the Romanian school of differential geometry.

Education
He was born in Turnu Severin, western Oltenia, the son of Anca (née Ciolănescu) and Radu Țiței, originally from Cilibia, in Buzău County. His name was registered as Țițeica–a combination of his parents' surnames. He showed an early interest in science, as well as music and literature. Țițeica was an accomplished violinist, having studied music since childhood: music was to remain his hobby. While studying at the Carol I High School in Craiova, he contributed to the school's magazine, writing the columns on mathematics and studies of literary critique. After graduation in 1892, he obtained a scholarship at the preparatory school in Bucharest, where he also was admitted as a student in the Mathematics Department of University of Bucharest's Faculty of Sciences. His teachers there included David Emmanuel, Spiru Haret, Constantin Gogu, Dimitrie Petrescu, and Iacob Lahovary. In June 1895, he graduated with a Bachelor of Mathematics.

In the summer of 1896, after a stint as a substitute teacher at the Bucharest theological seminary, Țițeica passed his exams for promotion to a secondary school position, becoming teacher in Galați.

In 1897, on the advice of teachers and friends, Țițeica completed his studies at a preparatory school in Paris. Among his mates were Henri Lebesgue and Paul Montel. After ranking first in his class and earning a second undergraduate degree from the Sorbonne in 1897, he was admitted at the École Normale Supérieure, where he took classes with Paul Appell, Gaston Darboux, Édouard Goursat, Charles Hermite, Gabriel Koenigs, Émile Picard, Henri Poincaré, and Jules Tannery. Țițeica chose Darboux to be his thesis advisor; after working for two years on his doctoral dissertation, titled Sur les congruences cycliques et sur les systèmes triplement conjugués, he defended it on 30 June 1899 before a board of examiners consisting of Darboux (as chair), Goursat, and Koenigs.

Career
Upon his return to Romania, Țițeica was appointed assistant professor at the University of Bucharest. He was promoted to full professor on 3 May 1903, retaining this position until his death in 1939. He also taught mathematics at the Polytechnic University of Bucharest, starting in 1928. In 1913, at age 40, Țițeica was elected as a permanent member of the Romanian Academy, replacing Spiru Haret. Later he was appointed in leading roles: in 1922, vice-president of the scientific section, in 1928, vice-president and in 1929 secretary general. Țițeica was also president of the Romanian Mathematical Society, of the Romanian Association of Science, and of the Association of the development and the spreading of science. He was a vice-president of the Polytechnics Association of Romania and member of the High Council of Public Teaching.

Țițeica was the president of the geometry section at the International Congress of Mathematicians (ICM) in Toronto (1924), Zürich (1932), and Oslo (1936). With 5 invited ICM talks (1908, 1912, 1924, 1932, and 1936), he is in a tie for 7th place among mathematicians with the most invited ICM talks.

He was elected correspondent of the Association of Sciences of Liège and doctor honoris causa of the University of Warsaw. In 1926, 1930, and 1937 he gave a series of lectures as titular professor at the Faculty of Sciences in Sorbonne. He also gave many lectures at the Free University of Brussels (1926) and the University of Rome (1927).

His Ph.D. students include Dan Barbilian and Grigore Moisil.

Scientific work
Țițeica wrote about 400 articles, of which 96 are scientific projects, most addressing problems of differential geometry. His bibliography includes over 200 published papers and books, which appeared in many editions. Carrying on the researches of the American geometer of German origin Ernest Wilczynski, Țițeica discovered a new class of surfaces and a new class of curves which now carry his name. His contributions represent the beginning of a new chapter in mathematics, namely, affine differential geometry. He also studied webs in n-dimensional space, defined through Laplace equations. He investigated what is now known as the Tzitzeica equation, which was further generalized by Robin Bullough and Roger Dodd (the Tzitzéica–Bullough–Dodd equation).

He is also known for a result on the geometry of circles and triangles in the plane, referred to as Țițeica's 5 lei coin problem, a problem he proposed (and solved) at the Gazeta Matematică contest in Galați in 1908. The problem was posed independently by Roger Arthur Johnson in 1916, and the resulting configuration is also referred to as the Johnson circles.

Private life and legacy
Țițeica married Florence Thierin (1882–1965) and the couple had three children — Radu (1905–1987), Gabriela (1907–1987), and Șerban (1908–1985) — all of whom pursued careers in academia; the youngest one became a renowned quantum physicist. The family lived in a 19th-century house on Dionisie Lupu Street, close to Lahovari Plaza, in Sector 1 of Bucharest; Țițeica moved there around 1913, when he was elected to the academy. A commemorative plaque was affixed to the house by the city administration in 1998. He died in 1939 in Bucharest and was buried in the city's Bellu Cemetery.

A high school in Drobeta-Turnu Severin and a gymnasium in Craiova bear his name, and so does a street in Sector 2 of Bucharest. The Romanian Academy offers an annual "Gheorghe Țițeica Prize" for achievements in mathematics. The logo of the 40th International Mathematical Olympiad, held in Bucharest in 1999, was inspired by Țițeica's 5 lei coin problem.

In 1961, Poșta Română issued a 1.55 lei stamp in his honor (Scott #1415); he also figures on a 2 lei stamp from 1945 commemorating the founding of Gazeta Matematică in 1895 (Scott #596).

Martin Charnin (November 24, 1934 – July 6, 2019) was an American lyricist, writer, and theatre director. Charnin's best-known work is as conceiver, director, and lyricist of the musical Annie.

Life and career
Charnin was born in New York City, the son of Birdie (Blakeman) and William Charnin, an opera singer. His family was Jewish. Charnin graduated from The High School of Music & Art and then from The Cooper Union, where he earned a BFA. Charnin began his theatrical career as a performer, appearing as "Big Deal", one of the Jets in the original production of West Side Story. He played the role for 1,000 performances on Broadway and on the road.

He wrote music and lyrics for numerous Off-Broadway and cabaret revues, many of them for Julius Monk. He then went on to write, direct, and produce nightclub acts for Dionne Warwick, Nancy Wilson, Mary Travers, Larry Kert, Jose Ferrer, and Leslie Uggams.

The first Broadway musical for which he wrote the lyrics was the 1963 musical Hot Spot starring Judy Holliday, with music by Mary Rodgers. He contributed lyrics to Vernon Duke's musical Zenda which ran in California in 1963 but did not reach Broadway. In 1967, he wrote the lyrics for Mata Hari, which was produced by David Merrick. He wrote lyrics to Richard Rodgers' music and Peter Stone's book for the musical Two by Two (1970), which starred Danny Kaye and ran on Broadway for 10 months.

In the early 1970s, he worked in television where he conceived, produced, wrote and directed six television variety specials. In 1971, he won the Emmy Award for Annie, The Women in the Life of a Man, which starred Anne Bancroft. In 1972, he won two primetime Emmy Awards for S'Wonderful, S'Marvelous, S'Gershwin, which starred, among others, Jack Lemmon, Fred Astaire, Ethel Merman, Larry Kert, and Robert Guillaume.

He directed Jeanne La Pucelle (1997) in Montreal, with book and lyrics by Vincent de Tourdonnet and music by Peter Sipos.

In the 1990s, he directed dozens of companies of Annie, and its sequel Annie Warbucks; in 1997, he directed three additional companies of Annie in London, Australia and Amsterdam. He directed the 20th anniversary production of Annie on Broadway, and in 2004, he directed the 30th anniversary production of Annie, produced by Ken Gentry and Networks. It ran for three and a half years all over the U.S.

He conceived and directed the cabaret revue Upstairs at O'Neals, which ran Off-Broadway from October 1982 to July 1983 at O'Neal's restaurant. He directed and wrote the book with Douglas Bernstein and Denis Markell and music with Marvin Hamlisch, Thomas Meehan, Billy Weeden and David Finkle for The No Frills Revue; sketches were written by Ronny Graham among others. The revue featured his daughter, Sasha Charnin Morrison. The revue opened Off-Broadway at the Cherry Lane Theater in October 1987. He directed the premiere stage adaptation of Jules Feiffer's Carnal Knowledge Off-Broadway at the Kaufman Theatre in 1990 and Wallach and Jackson in In Persons.

In regional theatre, he directed Robin Hood: The Legend Continues which ran at the Village Theatre, Issaquah, Washington in December 2004. He also wrote the lyrics, with music by Peter Sipos and the book by Thomas Meehan, and the cast featured Shelly Burch. He directed A.R. Gurney's Later Life in Orlando in 2005, featuring Shelly Burch. He created, wrote or directed regional shows including Love is Love, Shadowlands, and in 2010, Sleuth, all for the Village Theatre in Issaquah.

He moved back to the East Coast for the 35th Anniversary revival of Annie, which opened on Broadway at the Palace Theatre in November 2012 and ran until January 2014.

20th Century Masters – The Millennium Collection: The Best of Phil Ochs

20th Century Masters – The Millennium Collection: The Best of Phil Ochs is a brief compilation of Phil Ochs later works on A&M Records. Focusing heavily on his debut for the label, Pleasures Of The Harbor, offering five of its eight tracks, it only offered two tracks from his other three studio albums and only one from his 1974 live album. These selections tend to de-emphasize the folk leanings of those later albums while embracing the more experimental leanings.

List of stations in London fare zones 7–14

Fare zones 7–9 are ancillary zones of the Travelcard and Oyster card fares scheme managed by Transport for London, used for calculating fares from some stations outside Greater London that are not in zones 4, 5 and 6. Travelcards are available on Oyster with validity in these zones. They are not included in the validity of National Rail out-boundary Travelcards unless mentioned in the Route section as "AAA LDN ZONE 7-9". Fare zones 10–15 (or A–F by their hexadecimal number) have fares set by National Rail train operating companies and the zones themselves are not publicised. The fare zones are outside Greater London, typically more than 16 mi from Piccadilly Circus.

Scope
The zones extend in segments from the boundary of Greater London to the north and west into Hertfordshire and Buckinghamshire, to the east into Essex and Kent and to the south into Surrey and West Sussex.

Unlike zones 1–6, they do not form complete rings around London but rather patches. They include eight London Underground stations on the Metropolitan line and London Overground stations. Also, Travelcards season tickets for these zones are only sold in limited combinations, unlike in Zones 1-6 where all combinations covering at least two consecutive zones are sold, and outboundary Travelcards (one which includes travel between a station outside the zonal system and some numbered zones) do not include travel in Zones 7-9 unless specifically stated.

Zone 7
Zone 7 consists of the Hertfordshire stations on the Metropolitan Line and the first London Overground and West Anglia Main Line stations outside zone 6.

Zone 8
Zone 8 consists of Chalfont & Latimer, the remaining London Overground stations where TfL set fares, and stations in Kent where Oyster is valid.

Zone 9
Zone 9 consists of Amersham, Brentwood and. Cuffley and Epsom are technically in this zone (for capping purposes only), but not publicised as such due to cheaper paper fares on weekly, monthly and annual tickets.

The following stations are within zone 9:

Special Zones
These zones have their fares set by National Rail companies. Zones are referred to by their decimal or hexadecimal number. Zones are allocated corridors extending out from London, rather than the roughly concentric circles that the non-special zones have.

Zone 10, or Zone A consists of Watford Junction (sometimes called Zone W), and c2c stations out to Grays (sometimes called Zone G)

Zone 11, or Zone B, consists of the stations out to Hertford not covered by numbered zones, as well as Potters Bar and Radlett

Zone 12, or Zone C, is Shenfield station

Zone 13, or Zone D, consists of the stations between zone 6 and Gatwick Airport

Zone 14, or Zone E, is Gatwick Airport station

Zone 15, or Zone F, was reserved for Elizabeth line stations out to Reading, although it hasn't been used.

The following stations are inside the Oyster zonal system, but special fares apply:

Contactless-only
The London pay-as-you-go system continues beyond the zones. Due to technical limitations with Oyster cards, they are not valid and only contactless payment cards may be used. Contactless-only PAYG is valid out to Luton Airport Parkway, Welwyn Garden City, and Reading.

The following stations are contactless only: The following stations will be accepting Contactless payment cards:

Magee College

The Ulster University Derry~Londonderry campus is one of the four campuses of Ulster University. It is located in Derry, County Londonderry, Northern Ireland and opened in 1865 as a Presbyterian Christian arts and theological college. Since 1953, it has had no religious affiliation and provides a broad range of undergraduate and postgraduate academic degree programmes in disciplines ranging from business, law, social work, creative arts & technologies, cinematic arts, design, computer science and computer games to psychology and nursing.

Academics
It offers a large number of undergraduate and postgraduate programmes through Ulster University's four faculties:
 * 1) Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences
 * 2) Computing, Engineering and the Built Environment
 * 3) Life and Health Sciences
 * 4) Ulster Business School

Within each faculty there are a number of schools offering programmes for their relative disciplines. The schools based on the Derry~Londonderry campus are:
 * 1) Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences – School of Arts and Humanities, School of Education, School of Law, School of Applied Social and Policy Studies
 * 2) Computing, Engineering & the Built Environment – School of Computing, Engineering and Intelligent Systems
 * 3) Life and Health Sciences – School of Nursing, School of Psychology
 * 4) Ulster Business School – Department of Global Business and Enterprise

Programmes taught include business studies, drama, law, social work, education, cinematic arts, computer science, computer games, creative technologies, design, robotics, electronics, modern languages, music, nursing, psychology, and social sciences.

Research
Research activities include several research institutes and centres.

Derry~Londonderry Campus is home to the Arts & Humanities Research Institute (AHRI) with membership drawn from former research groupings in the Humanities Research Institute, the Academy for Irish Cultural Heritages (AICH) and the Institute of Ulster Scots Studies. The AHRI provides an institutional focus for research activity and collaboration across four research clusters in Creative Arts and Technologies, Irish Language & Literature, English and History embracing a range of subject areas within the Faculty of Arts, including Creative Technologies, Music, Drama, Dance, Irish Language & Literature, English and History. The AHRI promotes a broad research culture and environment within which research activity in individual disciplines flourishes.

It is also the location for the Intelligent Systems Research Centre (ISRC) dedicated to the creation of intelligent computational systems through research in neural networks, fuzzy systems, artificial intelligence and cognitive robotics. Other research areas include ambient intelligence, wireless sensor networks, robot vision, brain computer interfacing and serious games.

It also houses International Conflict Research (INCORE), a joint venture between the United Nations University and Ulster University. Established in 1993, it aims to address issues of the conflict in Northern Ireland and seek to promote conflict resolution internationally. The Transitional Justice Institute is based at both the Magee and Belfast campuses.

Provost
The principal academic post at the campus is the provost. Professor Thomas G Fraser was provost from 2002 to 2006, succeeded by Professor Jim Allen. In 2011, Professor Deirdre Heenan was appointed to the post in 2011, following the retirement of Professor Allen. She was replaced by Dr Malachy O'Neil in 2016

History
The initial name for the Campus (Magee Campus) originated from Martha Magee, the widow of a Presbyterian minister, who, in 1845, bequeathed £20,000 to the Presbyterian Church of Ireland to found a college for theology and the arts. It opened in 1865 primarily as a theological college, but accepted students from all denominations to study a variety of subjects. It was a college of the Royal University of Ireland from 1880 and later became associated with the Trinity College, Dublin when the Royal University was dissolved in 1909 and replaced by the National University of Ireland. The Irish Roman Catholic bishops had in 1871 implemented a general ban on Catholics entering Trinity College, with few exceptions. This ban remained in place until it was rescinded by the Catholic Bishops of Ireland in 1970. By that time, Magee College had severed its links with TCD, as set out below.

World War II: Royal Navy
During World War II, the college was taken over by The Admiralty for Royal Navy operational use, becoming with Ebrington Barracks (HMS Ferret (1940 shore establishment)), a major facility in the Battle of the Atlantic. A 2013 BBC report describes a secret major control bunker, later buried beneath the lawns of the college. From 1941 this bunker, part of Base One Europe, together with similar bunkers in Derby House, Liverpool, and Whitehall was used to control one million Allied personnel and fight the Nazi U-boat threat.

On 14 September 2013 Magee hosted the 23rd International Loebner Prize Contest in Artificial Intelligence based on The Turing Test.

Julian Peck's (who resided at Prehen House in Derry) mother, Lady Winifred Peck (née Knox), was a sister of Dilly Knox who directed the code breaking at Bletchley Park. Sir Harry Hinsley OBE was Director of Studies at Cambridge University to Professor Robert Gavin, a former Provost of Magee.

Dame Alice Rosemary Murray, the first female Vice-Chancellor of Cambridge University, who also sat on the Lockwood Committee (1963–65) which recommended the closure of Magee as well as the location of Northern Ireland's 2nd University being Coleraine (February 1965), from which she was later awarded a Doctor of Science (DSc) Honorary Degree (1972), was stationed at Base One Europe as WRNS Chief Officer and responsible for the welfare of 5,600 Wrens stationed at Londonderry.

Postwar
In 1953, Magee Theological College separated from the remainder of the college, eventually moving to Belfast in a 1978 merger that formed Union Theological College. Also in 1953, Magee College broke its links with Dublin and became Magee University College. It was hoped by groups led by the University for Derry Committee that this university college would become Northern Ireland's second university after Queen's University of Belfast. However, in the 1960s, following the recommendations in the Lockwood Report by Sir John Lockwood, Master of Birkbeck College, London and former Vice-Chancellor of the University of London, the Stormont Parliament made a controversial decision to pass it over in favour of a new university in Coleraine. Instead it was incorporated into the two-campus New University of Ulster in 1969. The next fourteen years saw the college halve in size, while development focused on the main Coleraine campus.

In 1984, the New University merged with the Ulster Polytechnic, and Magee became the early focus of development of a new four-campus university, the University of Ulster. Student and faculty numbers recovered and grew rapidly over the next ten to fifteen years, accompanied by numerous construction projects. Magee grew from just 273 students in 1984 to over 4000 undergraduates in 2012. In 2012, the University continued to lobby the Northern Ireland Executive for an additional 1000 full-time undergraduate places, leading to 6000 students at Magee in 2017. In October 2014 the University of Ulster was rebranded as Ulster University.

Hare–Hawes–Cutting Act

The Hare–Hawes–Cutting Act passed to authors Congress Butler B. Hare, Senator Harry B. Hawes and Senator Bronson M. Cutting. (ch. 11,, enacted January 17, 1933) The Hare–Hawes–Cutting Act was the first US law passed setting a process and a date for the Philippines to gain independence from the United States. It was the result of the OsRox Mission led by Sergio Osmeña and Manuel Roxas. The law promised Philippine independence after 10 years, but reserved several military and naval bases for the United States, as well as imposed tariffs and quotas on Philippine imports.

By 1932, two main groups supported a law outlining the specifics of Philippine independence: Great Depression-era American farmers competing against tariff-free Filipino sugar and coconut oil; and Filipinos seeking Philippine independence. The Hare–Hawes–Cutting Act was authored by South Carolina Representative Butler Hare, Missouri Senator Harry Bartow Hawes and New Mexico Senator Bronson M. Cutting. It passed by the United States Congress in December 1932, but was vetoed by U.S. President Herbert Hoover. Congress overrode the veto on January 17, 1933. The Philippine Senate was required to ratify the law. With leaders such as Manuel L. Quezon opposing it, the Philippine Senate rejected the bill.

Subsequently, a new bill, the Tydings–McDuffie Act of 1934, was passed by the United States Government. This was ratified by the Philippine Senate and resulted in the 1935 Philippine Constitution, the establishment of the Philippine Commonwealth and ultimately Philippine independence on July 4, 1946.

A Place in the Sun (British TV series)

A Place in the Sun is a British Channel 4 lifestyle television series about attempting to find a "perfect property" on the market in the United Kingdom, overseas, and "abroad". It most often focuses on areas in southern Europe, but in recent years, it has also featured a number of places in other areas of the world such as Florida and the Caribbean.

Format
Generally, every episode on the programme shows a British couple wishing to buy a property in a sunny foreign country are shown three to five properties within their budget found by the show's researchers. The presenter gives the couple useful local information relating to buying, running and maintaining a property in this particular location. After viewing each property the couple are asked for their opinions. At the end of the show they are asked if they have a favourite property and we're finally told if they went on to buy the property or another in the region. It was a response to the growth in Britons buying property abroad.

In the last few years, it has shown destinations as diverse as Australia, Bulgaria, Canada, the Caribbean, Croatia, Romania, Slovenia, South Africa, and even Cape Verde.

Toni Polster

Anton "Toni" Polster (born 10 March 1964) is an Austrian professional football coach and former player. He is the all-time leading goalscorer for the Austria national team with 44 goals and was known to fans as "Toni Doppelpack" – "Toni Brace" because of his tendency to score twice in a match.

Club career
Polster came through the Austria Wien youth system to make his professional league debut in August 1982, at 18 years of age. He scored his first Bundesliga goal three weeks later and went on to win three league titles and a domestic cup before moving abroad to play a season in Serie A with Torino. He then spent the five following years at Spanish teams Sevilla, Logroñés and Rayo Vallecano, ending up with these teams in mid-table as well except for one year, 1989–90, in which Sevilla FC ended in sixth place and played UEFA Cup the following year. In 1990, he finished runner-up in the Spanish goalscoring chart. In 1993, he moved to Germany to spend five years at Köln, again ending up in mid-table every season except for the last one in which he experienced relegation. That made him join Borussia Mönchengladbach next year but they got also relegated at the end of the season and Polster returned to Austria to play a final season at Austria Salzburg.

Polster was chosen in Austria's Team of the Century in 2001 and as Austrian Sportsman of the Year in 1997.

International career
In 1983, Polster was selected for the Austria U20's to play at the 1983 FIFA World Youth Championship.

He had already made his senior debut for Austria in November 1982 against Turkey, immediately scoring his first goal, and was a participant at the 1990 World Cup and 1998 World Cup. He earned 95 caps, scoring a record 44 goals. He overtook the previous goalscoring record, set by Hans Krankl, in November 1996, scoring his 35th goal against Latvia.

His final (and record-breaking 94th) international was thought to be a 1998 FIFA World Cup match against Italy in June, but he was given an official farewell match in September 2000 against Iran, in which he was substituted in the 21st minute by Christian Mayrleb. His appearances record was surpassed by Andreas Herzog in May 2002.

Coaching career
Polster began his coaching career in January 2010 as the reserve-team coach at LASK Linz. In June 2011, he became the head coach of SC Wiener Viktoria in the Austrian 2. Landesliga, the fifth-tier in Austrian football. During his first season at Wiener Viktoria, the team promoted to the fourth-tier and consequently a year after to the third division, the so-called Austrian Regional League. On 17 June 2013, he accepted his first coaching role in the Austrian Bundesliga, taking over as the head coach of the top-flight side Admira Wacker Mödling. After starting the season with three straight defeats, including a 7–1 defeat to newly promoted Scholz Grödig, Polster was fired by Admira on 9 August 2013. Polster returned to SC Wiener Viktoria on 13 January 2014.

Calvin Theological Seminary

Calvin Theological Seminary is a private Christian Reformed Church seminary in Grand Rapids, Michigan. It is closely tied to Calvin University, though each institution has its own board.

History
The seminary was founded in 1876 with the purpose of preparing ministers for the Christian Reformed Church. Originally it met on Spring Street in Grand Rapids, but in 1892 it was moved to Madison Avenue and Franklin Street. In 1917 it moved to the Franklin Street location. It began holding classes on the Knollcrest Campus, its current location, in 1960.

In 1894, the seminary began to offer eight literary courses for the preparation for seminary studies. In 1900 these courses were expanded and made open to non-seminary students. The school enrolled its first four female students in 1901. In 1908, the school expanded to include a full four years of high school education and two years of college, and in 1914 this was expanded to three years. In 1919 and 1920 respectively, a college president and a fourth year of college education were added, which led to the formation of Calvin College.

Presidents

 * Geert Egberts Boer
 * Louis Berkhof
 * Samuel Volbeda
 * Rienk B. Kuiper
 * John H. Kromminga
 * James A. De Jong
 * Cornelius Plantinga
 * Jul Medenblik

Academics
The seminary primarily prepares students for ordained ministry within the denomination through the Master of Divinity degree, but also grants master's degrees (MA, MTS) in other subjects including worship, education, missions, and theological studies.

The seminary also offers a Th.M. with concentrations in Old Ancient Near Eastern Languages and Literature, New Historical Theology, Systematic Theology, Philosophical and Moral Theology, Pastoral Care, Church Polity and Administration, Preaching, Worship, Educational Ministry, and Missions, as well as the Ph.D. degree in historical, systematic, and philosophical theology, and in ethics.

In addition to formal degrees, the seminary offers continuing education, including courses that are open to visitors, lectures, book discussion groups, and conferences for clergy and those in the community.
