New Hampshire Route 28

New Hampshire Route 28 is an 85.413 mi north–south state highway in eastern New Hampshire. It connects the town of Ossipee in east-central New Hampshire with Salem on the Massachusetts border, while passing through Manchester, the largest city in the state.

The southern terminus of NH 28 is on the Massachusetts state line in Salem in south central New Hampshire, from where Massachusetts Route 28 continues south into the city of Methuen and beyond to Boston and Cape Cod. The northern terminus is at the junction with New Hampshire Route 16, the White Mountain Road, in Ossipee, in northern New Hampshire.

Route 28 parallels Interstate 93 south of Manchester, going slightly northwest, but it goes northeast north of Manchester.

Route description
New Hampshire Route 28 begins at the Massachusetts border in Salem, New Hampshire, as a continuation of Massachusetts Route 28. It is known locally as Broadway and forms the main north-south commercial street through Salem. It meets the northern terminus of NH 38 at Rockingham Park Boulevard and the western terminus of NH 97 at Main Street. Crossing into the town of Windham, the name changes to Rockingham Road and there is an intersection with NH 111 just past the town line. Leaving Windham at the northern border of town, it enters the town of Derry. At Main Street it meets the southern terminus of New Hampshire 28 Bypass, and Rockingham Road makes a hard left turn, heading slightly southwest. At the intersection with Birch Street, NH 28 turns right back to the northwest along Birch Street, which changes its name to Crystal Avenue at the intersection with NH 102/Broadway. At Tsienneto Road, the name changes again to Manchester Road, and NH 28 leaves Derry to the west into Londonderry.

In Londonderry, the name changes back to Rockingham Road. Initially heading west, the route bends to the north at Stonehenge Road, then west again for an interchange with I-93 (exit 5). NH 28 merges onto Mammoth Road, where the northern terminus of NH 128 is. It leaves Mammoth Road upon entering the city of Manchester, which continues on as the southern NH 28A, while NH 28 turns onto South Willow Street. Passing the Manchester Airport and the Mall of New Hampshire, there is an interchange with I-293 (exit 1). In downtown Manchester, at the intersection with Queen City Avenue/Cilley Road, NH 28 passes on to a pair of one-way streets, Beech Street southbound and Maple Street northbound. At Webster Street, NH 28 joins U.S. Route 3 for a concurrency along Daniel Webster Highway, leaving at Manchester's northeastern corner to the village of South Hooksett within the town of Hooksett, where it has another interchange with I-93 (exit 9) at the city line.

NH 28 and US 3 remain in concurrency through the entire town of Hooksett, following Daniel Webster Highway through the South Hooksett commercial district and closely following the eastern bank of the Merrimack River. Both NH 28A (Mammoth Road) and New Hampshire 28 Bypass (Londonderry Turnpike) have their northern termini within Hooksett. Between the two of them lies the western terminus of NH 27. Leaving Hooksett at the northern end of town, NH 28/US 3 crosses into the village of Suncook within the town of Allenstown. Leaving US 3 along Pinewood Road just before the Suncook River, NH 28 heads off in a northeasterly direction towards the main village of Allenstown before crossing the Suncook River and going through the extreme eastern corner of Pembroke and entering the town of Epsom.

At the Epsom line, the name changes to Suncook Valley Highway, as it closely follows the Suncook River's west bank. In the main village of Epsom, it meets US 202/US 4/NH 9 (Franklin Pierce Highway) at a large traffic circle. Next entering the North Chichester village of Chichester, the road curves from the northwest to the northeast and changes name to Suncook Valley Road. After its brief pass through Chichester, the road enters the town of Pittsfield, and skirting the western edge of the main village of Pittsfield, there is an intersection with NH 107. In Barnstead, NH 28 meets the northern terminus of NH 126 in the village of Center Barnstead. Passing by the Suncook Lakes that form the headwaters of the Suncook River, NH 28 enters the Lakes Region town of Alton after passing the northern shore of Halfmoon Lake, another source for the Suncook River.

In Alton, Suncook Valley Road meets its northern terminus in the main village of Alton at a traffic circle with NH 11/NH 28A, leaving the traffic circle along Wolfeboro Highway, going north, and then northeast, roughly following the eastern shore of Lake Winnipesaukee, meeting the northern end of NH 28A about halfway to the South Wolfeboro village of the town of Wolfeboro. At South Wolfeboro, NH 28 turns left at a T-intersection to travel along Tuftonboro Road, which changes its name to Main Street, passing through the main village of Wolfeboro. In the center of Wolfeboro Village, NH 28 leaves Main Street to join a concurrency with NH 109 along Center Street, meeting the southern terminus of NH 109A (Elm Street) in the village of Wolfeboro Falls. In the village of Wolfeboro Center, just north of Lake Wentworth, NH 109 leaves to the southeast along Governor John Wentworth Highway, while NH 28 continues straight along Center Street to the northeast. Entering the town of Ossipee at the village of Ossipee Corner, NH 28 crosses NH 171 before reaching its northern terminus at NH 16 (White Mountain Highway).

New Hampshire Route 28 Bypass
New Hampshire Route 28 Bypass is a 14.124 mi bypass route of New Hampshire Route 28 east of the city of Manchester. The bypass separates from NH 28 in Derry, south of Manchester. While NH 28 runs through central Manchester, NH 28 Bypass runs along the eastern side of Manchester. The two routes rejoin in Hooksett, north of Manchester. The official local name of NH 28 Bypass is Londonderry Turnpike, but local residents generally refer to it simply as "The Bypass." It is the only New Hampshire state highway named and signed as a bypass.

New Hampshire Route 28A
New Hampshire Route 28A (abbreviated NH 28A) is a designation held by two north–south state highways in New Hampshire.

Southern segment
The southern segment of NH 28A, 7.623 mi in length and locally named Mammoth Road, connects Londonderry and Hooksett, running through the eastern suburbs of Manchester. The southern terminus is at the junction with New Hampshire Route 28 in Londonderry. The northern terminus is at the junction with U.S. Route 3/NH 28 in Hooksett.

Northern segment
The northern segment of NH 28A is a 3.716 mi loop road in the town of Alton. It splits off from NH 28, runs north along the shore of Alton Bay, an arm of Lake Winnipesaukee, then rejoins NH 28. For about one-third of its length, NH 28A runs concurrent to New Hampshire Route 11.

Patsaev

Patsaev is a lunar impact crater that lies on the far side of the Moon, to the northeast of the prominent crater Tsiolkovskiy. To the northwest is the smaller crater Lander.

This is a heavily damaged crater that now appears as little more than an irregular depression in the surface. Both the outer rim and interior floor are streaked by jumbled ridges of material that are radial to Tsiolkovskiy. Most likely this is ejecta deposited during Tsiolkovskiy's formation.

It was named in 1973 by the IAU after cosmonaut Viktor Patsayev who died in the Soyuz 11 mission.

Kira
Within Patsaev Q is a tiny crater that was officially designated Kira by the International Astronomical Union (IAU). Kira is a Russian feminine name – the crater is named after Kira B. Shingareva, a Russian Geographer known for her work in mapping the dark side of the moon. The selenographic coordinates of this feature are 17.6° S, 132.8° E, and the diameter is 3 km.

Satellite craters
By convention these features are identified on lunar maps by placing the letter on the side of the crater midpoint that is closest to Patsaev.

The satellite crater Patsaev Q is located just to the southwest of Patsaev. In the past it was suggested that this feature be renamed Chenier, in honor of André Marie Chénier the French poet, but this was never adopted by the IAU.

The crater now known as Bondarenko was formerly known as Patsaev G crater.

Septic drain field

Septic drain fields, also called leach fields or leach drains, are subsurface wastewater disposal facilities used to remove contaminants and impurities from the liquid that emerges after anaerobic digestion in a septic tank. Organic materials in the liquid are catabolized by a microbial ecosystem.

A septic drain field, a septic tank, and associated piping compose a septic system.

The drain field typically consists of an arrangement of trenches containing perforated pipes and porous material (often gravel) covered by a layer of soil to prevent animals (and surface runoff) from reaching the wastewater distributed within those trenches. Primary design considerations are both hydraulic for the volume of wastewater requiring disposal and catabolic for the long-term biochemical oxygen demand of that wastewater. The land area that is set aside for the septic drain field may be called a septic reserve area (SRA).

Sewage farms similarly dispose of wastewater through a series of ditches and lagoons (often with little or no pre-treatment). These are more often found in arid countries as the waterflow on the surface allows for irrigation (and fertilization) of agricultural land.

Design
Many health departments require a percolation test ("perc" test) to establish the suitability of drain field soil to receive septic tank effluent. An engineer, soil scientist, or licensed designer may be required to work with the local governing agency to design a system that conforms to these criteria.

A more progressive way to determine leach field sizing is by direct observation of the soil profile. In this observation, the engineer evaluates many features of the soil such as texture, structure, consistency, pores/roots, etc.

The goal of percolation testing is to ensure the soil is permeable enough for septic tank effluent to percolate away from the drain field, but fine grained enough to filter out pathogenic bacteria and viruses before they travel far enough to reach a water well or surface water supply. Coarse soils – sand and gravel – can transmit wastewater away from the drain field before pathogens are destroyed. Silt and clay effectively filter out pathogens but allow very limited wastewater flow rates. Percolation tests measure the rate at which clean water disperses through a disposal trench into the soil. Several factors may reduce observed percolation rates when the drain field receives anoxic septic tank effluent:

 * Microbial colonies catabolizing soluble organic compounds from the septic tank effluent will adhere to soil particles and reduce the interstitial area available for water flow between soil particles. These colonies tend to form a low-permeability biofilm of gelatinous slime at the soil interface of the disposal trench.
 * Insoluble particles small enough to be carried through the septic tank will accumulate at the soil interface of the disposal trench; non-biodegradable particles like synthetic fiber lint from laundry, mineral soil from washing, or bone and eggshell fragments from garbage disposals will remain to fill interstitial areas formerly available for water flow out of the trench.
 * Cooking fats or petroleum products emulsified by detergents or dissolved by solvents can flow through prior to anaerobic liquefaction when septic tank volume is too small to offer adequate residence time, and may congeal as a hydrophobic layer on the soil interface of the disposal trench.
 * Rising groundwater levels may reduce the available hydraulic head (or vertical distance) causing gravitational water flow away from the disposal trench. Effluent initially flowing downward from the disposal trench might ultimately encounter groundwater or impermeable rock or clay requiring a directional shift to horizontal movement away from the drain field.  A certain vertical distance is required between the effluent level in the disposal trench and the water level applicable when the effluent leaves the drain field in order for gravitational force to overcome viscous frictional forces resisting flow through porous soil. Effluent levels in the vicinity of the drain field will rise toward the ground surface to preserve that vertical distance difference if groundwater levels surrounding the drain field approach the level of effluent in the disposal trench.
 * Frozen ground may seasonally reduce the cross-sectional area available for flow or evaporation.

Catabolic design
Just as a septic tank is sized to support a community of anaerobic organisms capable of liquefying anticipated amounts of putrescible materials in wastewater, a drain field should be sized to support a community of aerobic soil microorganisms capable of decomposing the anaerobic septic tank's effluent into aerobic water. Hydrogen sulfide odors or iron bacteria may be observed in nearby wells or surface waters when effluent has not been completely oxidized prior to reaching those areas. The biofilm on the walls of the drain field trenches will use atmospheric oxygen in the trenches to catabolize organic compounds in septic tank effluent. Groundwater flow is laminar in the aquifer soils surrounding the drain field. Septic tank effluent with soluble organic compounds passing through the biofilm forms a mounded lens atop the groundwater underlying the drain field. Molecular diffusion controls the mixing of soluble organic compounds into the groundwater and the transport of oxygen from underlying groundwater or the capillary fringe of the groundwater surface, to micro-organisms capable of catabolizing dissolved organic compounds remaining in the effluent plume.

Biofilter
When a septic tank is used in combination with a biofilter, the height and catabolic area of the drain field may be reduced. Biofilter technology may allow higher density residential construction, minimal site disturbance and more usable land for trees, swimming pools, or gardens. With adequate routine maintenance it may reduce the chances of the drain field plugging up. The biofilter will not reduce the volume of liquid that must percolate into soil, but it may reduce the oxygen demand of organic materials in that liquid.

Dosing schedules or resting periods
A drain field may be designed to offer several separate disposal areas for effluent from a single septic tank. One area may be "rested" while effluent is routed to a different area. The nematode community in the resting drain field continues feeding on the accumulated biofilm and fats when the anaerobic septic tank effluent is no longer available. This natural cleansing process may reduce bioclogging to improve the hydraulic capacity of the field by increasing the available interstitial area of the soil as the accumulated organic material is oxidized. The percolation rate after resting may approach, but is unlikely to match, the original clean water percolation rate of the site.

Inappropriate wastes
Septic tank and drain field microorganisms have very limited capability for catabolizing petroleum products and chlorinated solvents, and cannot remove dissolved metals; although some may be absorbed into septic tank sludge or drain field soils, and concentrations may be diluted by other groundwater in the vicinity of the drain field. Cleaning formulations may reduce drain field efficiency. Laundry bleach may slow or stop microbial activity in the drain field, and sanitizing or deodorizing chemicals may have similar effects. Detergents, solvents, and drain cleaners may transport emulsified, saponified or dissolved fats into the drain field before they can be catabolized into short-chain organic acids in the septic tank scum layer.

Peer Review
I completed a peer review of this article, and made some minor style and grammatical corrections. Phoenix2 02:37, 11 Jun 2005 (UTC)

"Dress"? Or "strip"? Or something else?
The article users the term "dress" where Brits like me would use "strip". Is "strip" understood outside Britain? Or is there another term that can be used? (I can't think of one.) I'm asking because describing what the players wear as "dress" sounds a bit wrong to my ear. --Finbarr Saunders 12:04, 20 September 2005 (UTC)
 * I'm British too, and "dress" also sounds wrong to me. I'd certainly use "strip" myself, but I don't think it is worldwide, though: Americans say "uniform", and until only a month ago (when I added a mention) neither the strip nor uniform pages so much as mentioned that Britons don't call them "uniforms". Besides, the article uses British English spelling (eg "colours"), and is about a sport not that popular at a professional level in the USA, so an American word might look out of place. Maybe "kit" could be used, as indeed it is at the end of the "Colours and badge" paragraph.
 * I think kit is the best word to use and have changed the article. How about the use of "jersey", is that an AE term and so should be changed to shirt, or is it used in BE too? -- Elisson • Talk 16:30, 20 September 2005 (UTC)

 * "Jersey" is used occasionally, but not as much in football as it is in rugby; "shirt" is by quite a long way the most common term here. I wouldn't say that "jersey" was incorrect though, and it's readily understood, so I think it's fine to leave it in. (Australians use "guernsey" in some sporting contexts, I believe, but that's never used in the UK.) Loganberry (Talk) 22:25, 20 September 2005 (UTC)

 * The other section I have a slight problem with is this: IFK Göteborg, Malmö FF, and AIK are often considered to be the three biggest and most classic Swedish football clubs... "Most classic" doesn't really mean anything in English, and a better phrase would be nice, though I'm not sure what. Admittedly this is a small point, but it's a featured article and so has to expect such small points to be made!

Loganberry (Talk) 12:46, 20 September 2005 (UTC)

 * An anon user reworded it earlier today. Better? -- Elisson • Talk 16:30, 20 September 2005 (UTC)

 * A lot better, Johan. Cheers to the anon. --Finbarr Saunders 19:43, 20 September 2005 (UTC)

 * Yes, that reads pretty well. The hyphen in "make up" was a bit odd, but I've taken that out now, and that apart I think it's a major improvement on the original. Loganberry (Talk) 22:25, 20 September 2005 (UTC)

Copyediting

 * after the troubled start IFK won everything they could win that year, including Allsvenskan, Svenska Cupen, and the UEFA Cup - could this be described as a treble, or were there other minor competitions as well?
 * The first Swedish official national league, Allsvenskan, started in autumn 1924 / IFK won their first Allsvenskan title in the spring of 1935 - would it be possible to put the month for these? Helps to avoid confusion among readers from the southern hemisphere. Oldelpaso 17:42, 20 June 2007 (UTC)
 * It could be called a treble, but it should be noted (it seems I left that out when I wrote that section) that the actual Swedish Championship title was not awarded to the winners of the league, Allsvenskan, but to the winners of the league play-off (see 1982 in Swedish football for further info on the system at that time), which on the other hand was IFK as well. So it could be claimed that they won four major titles that year, but most people would consider Allsvenskan and the play-off to be one competition divided into two stages.
 * I'll fix all date/month related issues when I do my next inline citation edit.
 * I don't know how to thank you for the copyedit! – Elisson • T • C • 18:02, 20 June 2007 (UTC)
 * You don't need to. At least not yet, I haven't finished! Oldelpaso 18:46, 20 June 2007 (UTC)
 * It's good to see the "no-one really believed" has finally been removed. Epbr123 21:28, 7 August 2007 (UTC)

Swedish football champions
The featured list List of Swedish football champions (in which Göteborg enjoy pride of place as the most successful team ever) is currently a candidate for removal. The discussion can be found here. I came here in the hope that someone might be willing to help us overcome the linguistic hurdle, and thus help keep the list at featured standards. Thanks in advance, WFCforLife (talk) 19:08, 22 December 2009 (UTC)

Misleading phrase
In the introduction, this article says about IFK Göteborg "They have played top flight football in Sweden since 1977, which currently is the longest top flight tenure of any club in Sweden". This phrase suggests that no team has maintained its position in the "top flight" (Swedish premier league) longer than IFK Göteborg's 33 years. Malmö FF holds this record at 63 years, as can be read in the history section of Malmö FF's Wikipedia article. The phrase is misleading and should be removed. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.183.145.39 (talk) 01:34, 23 April 2010 (UTC)

Lee Bradbury

Lee Michael Bradbury (born 3 July 1975) is an English football manager and former player who is a coach at club Port Vale. A versatile player, he primarily played as a striker and scored 105 goals in 572 league and cup games in a 16-year professional career. His son, Harvey, also plays professional football.

Bradbury joined the British Army upon leaving school at the age of 16 and served the Princess of Wales's Royal Regiment in Northern Ireland. He was discharged from military service to sign with Portsmouth in 1995. He played on loan at Exeter City before being named Portsmouth's Player of the Season after scoring 17 goals in the 1996–97 campaign. He was purchased by Manchester City for a club record £3 million in July 1997. However, he did not enjoy a successful time at City and was sold to Crystal Palace for £1.5 million in October 1998. He ended the 1998–99 season on loan at Birmingham City and returned to Portsmouth for a £300,000 fee in October 1999. He played 106 games in just over four seasons in his second spell at the club. He also spent time on loan at Sheffield Wednesday and Derby County. He joined Walsall on a free transfer in March 1999 and then moved on to Oxford United three months later. He spent almost two seasons with Oxford and then ended the 2005–06 season helping Southend United to win the League One title. He joined his final club, AFC Bournemouth, in August 2007, where he would be promoted out of League Two in 2009–10.

Bradbury retired as a player after being appointed manager of AFC Bournemouth, where he worked from January 2011 to March 2012. He then spent seven years as manager of Havant & Waterlooville, winning the Isthmian League Premier Division in 2016–17 and the National League South title in 2017–18. He took charge of Eastbourne Borough in May 2019 but left in October 2019 and became assistant head coach at Crawley Town. He returned to management at Eastleigh in February 2022, though he was sacked in August 2023.

Early and personal life
Lee Michael Bradbury was born in Cowes, on the Isle of Wight on 3 July 1975. At 15, he wrote to all 92 clubs in the English Football League to request a trial. He left Cowes High School two days before his 16th birthday and joined the British Army the day after his birthday. He became a frontline rifleman and toured Northern Ireland for two years. He was a key player for the Princess of Wales's Royal Regiment and Warrant Officier Bob Jeffrey quipped that "his accuracy with a football is better than with a rifle". He played for Cowes Sports whilst on leave. He also played B division football for Ballinamallard United and turned out for Halstead Town and Fivemiletown United. He patrolled Omagh for two years after turning 18, performing searches for terrorist activity. Contrary to reports that he bought himself out of the army, he was in fact given an honourable discharge after four-and-a-half-years of service to pursue his professional football career.

He married Hayley, from Newport, Isle of Wight, and had two children: Harvey and Nellie. Harvey became a professional footballer with numerous clubs, including Oxford United, leaving them as the first father and son to play for the club. Bradbury stood trial for assault in 2001 following an alleged fracas outside a nightclub. Bradbury began suffering anxiety attacks and was diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) after witnessing the death of his friend Ryan McKinlay in a boating accident in June 2015. He launched a clothing brand, Bridge, to raise money for PTSD charities.

Portsmouth
Bradbury started his professional career following a successful trial at Portsmouth after his army coach recommended him to the club. He moved out on loan to Exeter City of the Third Division to play first-team football in December 1995. He scored a brace against Leyton Orient in his home debut at St James Park. He scored five goals in 14 league starts for Exeter. He was recalled to Portsmouth to cover for Paul Walsh, who had picked up an injury. He featured in 12 First Division games for Pompey in the 1995–96 season without scoring a goal.

He scored his first goal for the club on 1 October 1996, in a 2–2 draw with Crystal Palace at Fratton Park. He scored his first career hat-trick in a 4–2 home win over Barnsley on 22 April 1997 and was hailed as the discovery of the season by manager Terry Fenwick. He scored 17 goals in 49 games in the 1996–97 season, winning the club's Player of the Season award. He was also capped by England at under-21 level.

Manchester City
On 30 July 1997, he was purchased by Manchester City manager Frank Clark for a club record £3 million. Despite being the club's record transfer signing, chairman Francis Lee later claimed to have been on holiday in Portugal at the time and said that "we would definitely not have signed him if I had seen him play". He failed to score in his first six games for the club. He suffered a hairline fracture on his back, which caused him to be out of action from early October until early January. He struggled to make an impact at Maine Road and by the following March he was devoid of confidence after being booed and jeered by City fans. At the end of the 1997–98 season, City were relegated from the First Division, with Bradbury having scored seven goals in 29 games.

He scored on the opening day of the 1998–99 season, though he was warned to improve his performances by manager Joe Royle, who maintained he still had faith in the young striker. He scored four goals from 17 games before being sold early in the season.

Crystal Palace
On 23 October 1998, Bradbury was signed by Crystal Palace for £1.5 million, who were coached by Terry Venables until he was replaced by Steve Coppell in January. Bradbury struggled for form in the 1998–99 campaign, as did many of his teammates. On 25 March 1999, he joined Trevor Francis's Birmingham City on loan until the end of the 1998–99 season. He played eight First Division games during a short stay at St Andrew's, helping Birmingham to qualify for the play-offs, where they were beaten by Watford on a penalty shoot-out despite Bradbury successfully converting his penalty kick. On 2 October 1999, he played in a 4–0 win over Portsmouth at Selhurst Park, and 12 days later was sold on to his former club for a £300,000 fee.

Return to Portsmouth
Bradbury signed a five-year contract upon rejoining Portsmouth, who were managed by Alan Ball. He scored 10 goals in 36 games – including three goals in two games against former club Manchester City – as Portsmouth ended the 1999–2000 season in 18th-place with new manager Tony Pulis steering the club away from relegation. On 3 February 2001, Bradbury was sent off for stamping on Preston North End defender Colin Murdock in what manager Steve Claridge described as "a stupid thing to do". He ended the 2001–02 season with seven goals in 23 appearances. He was sidelined halfway through the campaign after suffering a cruciate knee ligament injury; the injury would keep him out of action for a year.

On 26 December 2002, Bradbury was loaned out to First Division rivals Sheffield Wednesday for one month after manager Chris Turner needed cover for the injured Lloyd Owusu. He returned to Portsmouth early due to a shoulder injury, but went back to Hillsborough on loan at the end of February. He was recalled to Portsmouth in April by Harry Redknapp after Yakubu Aiyegbeni picked up an injury. His first game back at Pompey was against Sheffield Wednesday, and he was named man of the match as he scored in a 2–1 home defeat.

Portsmouth won promotion to the Premier League at the end of the 2002–03 season, though Bradbury did not feature for the club in the top flight. On 14 August 2003, he joined First Division Derby County on loan. However, he was taken off injured 74 minutes into his debut and manager George Burley requested that the Football League scrub his loan from the club's records. He instead returned to Derby after three months spent recovering at Portsmouth. He played a total of seven games for the club.

Walsall
On 25 March 2004, Bradbury joined First Division Walsall on a free transfer, with manager Colin Lee seeing him as a target man to play off Jermaine McSporran. He scored one goal, against Derby County at Pride Park, in eight games for the club, which was not enough to prevent relegation into the third tier under the stewardship of Paul Merson.

Oxford United
In June 2004, he was signed by Oxford United manager Graham Rix, who had previously coached him at Portsmouth. Rix was replaced by Ramón Díaz halfway through the 2004–05 season, though Bradbury remained as club captain he was playing as a midfielder. In the summer, he requested new manager Brian Talbot play him in his familiar striking role. He started the 2005–06 season in a striking partnership with Steve Basham but was soon moved back into midfield by Talbot. He left the club amidst a contractual dispute, having scored nine goals in 63 League Two games.

Southend United
Bradbury signed a four-month contract with Southend United on 1 February 2006. He scored one goal in 15 appearances at the end of the 2005–06 season as Southend won promotion as champions of League One. He remained a key player in the Championship, scoring five goals from 35 games in the 2006–07 relegation campaign. He left Roots Hall after asking manager Steve Tilson to let him join a club closer to his home on the South Coast.

AFC Bournemouth
On 24 August 2007, Bradbury signed for AFC Bournemouth on a four-month loan deal. Manager Kevin Bond had first attempted to sign him on loan the previous November. After playing one game for the club the loan was made permanent. Bradbury signed a contract until the end of the season. He was an ever-present until he picked up a three-game suspension after being sent off against Leeds United on 6 November. He went on to feature for the club in midfield and at right-back, as well as in his usual position as a striker. Bournemouth were relegated from League One at the end of the 2007–08 season, with Bradbury contributing five goals from 39 games. He then scored six goals from 41 appearances as the club finished just two places above relegation out of the Football League. A change of fortune followed at Dean Court in the 2009–10 season, as Bournemouth secured promotion from League Two in second-place, with Bradbury making 49 appearances.

Style of play
Bradbury was a hard-working forward with pace and strength.

AFC Bournemouth
On 15 January 2011, Bradbury was appointed as caretaker manager at AFC Bournemouth after the departure of Eddie Howe to Burnley. The next day, he announced his retirement from playing, and on 28 January, was given a two-and-a-half-year deal as permanent manager of the club. Bournemouth finished the 2010–11 season in sixth-place, going on to lose to Huddersfield Town in the play-off semi-finals after losing a penalty shoot-out.

In January 2012, Bradbury signed an improved three-and-a-half-year contract to keep him at Bournemouth until the summer of 2015. However, he was given a vote of confidence by chairman Eddie Mitchell two months later after his side lost five successive league games. On 25 March, Bradbury was dismissed from Bournemouth following a run of poor form that left the club 13th in the table. The club won two of their remaining eight games under the stewardship of caretaker manager Paul Groves, who became the club's permanent manager at the end of the 2011–12 season.

Havant & Waterlooville
Bradbury was appointed manager of Conference South club Havant & Waterlooville on 9 October 2012. He was named as Conference South Manager of the Month for March 2013. Striker Ollie Palmer finished as the division's joint-top scorer as the club posted a tenth-place finish at the end of the 2012–13 season. Bradbury completed his UEFA A License in 2013. The Hawks finished sixth in 2013–14, missing out on a play-off place on goal difference. A fifth-place finish in 2014–15 secured them a play-off place, however, they lost to Boreham Wood at the semi-final stage. On 30 April 2016, Havant & Waterlooville's relegation from the National League South was confirmed after they ended the 2015–16 season inside the relegation zone on goal difference. Bradbury aimed to secure an immediate promotion by signing a squad full of locally based players such as Bradley Tarbuck and Jason Prior.

Havant and Waterlooville won promotion as champions of the Isthmian League Premier Division at the end of the 2016–17 season. Bradbury earned the Manager of the Year award for winning the league and signed a new two-year contract in April 2017. He signed prominent non-League striker Matt Tubbs in May 2017. The Hawks played the 2017–18 season back in the National League South and won it at the first attempt, gaining promotion to the top tier of non-League football. In December 2018, he was made the bookies' favourite to become the new manager of Hartlepool United. He left the club by mutual consent on 22 April 2019 after relegation back to the National League South was confirmed with a 22nd-place finish in 2018–19. He later said that "I think the club were surprised to go up and were not quite ready". Chairman Derek Pope meanwhile stated that "the players let him down" as they were unwilling to train three times a week.

Eastbourne Borough
On 7 May 2019, Bradbury was appointed as manager of National League South club Eastbourne Borough. He left the club after agreeing to cancel his contract on 22 October 2019 as the club faced an acute financial crisis.

Crawley Town (assistant)
In December 2019, he was appointed assistant head coach of Crawley Town in League Two, alongside newly appointed head coach John Yems. He remained with Crawley until February 2022, becoming a popular figure at Broadfield Stadium as Crawley underwent a giantkilling run in the FA Cup, which included a win over Premier League Leeds United.

Eastleigh
On 28 February 2022, Bradbury was appointed manager of National League club Eastleigh. He said he wanted to play "aggressive, attacking football". Eastleigh finished the 2021–22 season in ninth-place, four points shy of the play-off places. On 26 August 2023, Bradbury was relieved of his duties as manager of Eastleigh, following a 2–0 defeat to Southend United.

Return to coaching
After leaving Eastleigh, Bradbury worked as Arsenal's Southern Area Talent ID Scout. He then joined Darren Moore at Port Vale in February 2024.

BTW, did you see the page on "Shangdi"? I was awed and delighted. My late father told me that in addition to the Pantheon the Ancient Greeks had an altar on the Acropolis dedicated to "the unknown god". How wonderful! Shir-El too 01:52, 22 October 2007 (UTC)

Your servant has now been visited Shangdi, because you called the page to his attention; and thank you. The Altar with the inscription TO THE UNKNOWN GOD was found on Mars' Hill, the Areopagus. Paul the Apostle preached a sermon there, as is recorded in the Book of the Acts of the Apostles, Chapter 17:

"Now when they had passed through Amphipolis and Apollonia, they came to Thessalonica, where was a synagogue of the Jews: And Paul, as his manner was, went in unto them, and three sabbath days reasoned with them out of the scriptures, Opening and alleging, that Christ must needs have suffered, and risen again from the dead; and that this Jesus, whom I preach unto you, is Christ. And some of them believed, and consorted with Paul and Silas; and of the devout Greeks a great multitude, and of the chief women not a few. But the Jews which believed not, moved with envy, took unto them certain lewd fellows of the baser sort, and gathered a company, and set all the city on an uproar, and assaulted the house of Jason, and sought to bring them out to the people. And when they found them not, they drew Jason and certain brethren unto the rulers of the city, crying, These that have turned the world upside down are come hither also; Whom Jason hath received: and these all do contrary to the decrees of Caesar, saying that there is another king, one Jesus. And they troubled the people and the rulers of the city, when they heard these things. And when they had taken security of Jason, and of the other, they let them go. And the brethren immediately sent away Paul and Silas by night unto Berea: who coming thither went into the synagogue of the Jews. These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so. Therefore many of them believed; also of honourable women which were Greeks, and of men, not a few. But when the Jews of Thessalonica had knowledge that the word of God was preached of Paul at Berea, they came thither also, and stirred up the people. And then immediately the brethren sent away Paul to go as it were to the sea: but Silas and Timotheus abode there still. And they that conducted Paul brought him unto Athens: and receiving a commandment unto Silas and Timotheus for to come to him with all speed, they departed. Now while Paul waited for them at Athens, his spirit was stirred in him, when he saw the city wholly given to idolatry. Therefore disputed he in the synagogue with the Jews, and with the devout persons, and in the market daily with them that met with him. Then certain philosophers of the Epicureans, and of the Stoicks, encountered him. And some said, What will this babbler say? other some, He seemeth to be a setter forth of strange gods: because he preached unto them Jesus, and the resurrection. And they took him, and brought him unto Areopagus, saying, May we know what this new doctrine, whereof thou speakest, is? For thou bringest certain strange things to our ears: we would know therefore what these things mean. (For all the Athenians and strangers which were there spent their time in nothing else, but either to tell, or to hear some new thing.) Then Paul stood in the midst of Mars' hill, and said, Ye men of Athens, I perceive that in all things ye are too superstitious. For as I passed by, and beheld your devotions, I found an altar with this inscription, TO THE UNKNOWN GOD. Whom therefore ye ignorantly worship, him declare I unto you. God that made the world and all things therein, seeing that he is Lord of heaven and earth, dwelleth not in temples made with hands; Neither is worshipped with men's hands, as though he needed any thing, seeing he giveth to all life, and breath, and all things; And hath made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth, and hath determined the times before appointed, and the bounds of their habitation; That they should seek the Lord, if haply they might feel after him, and find him, though he be not far from every one of us: For in him we live, and move, and have our being; as certain also of your own poets have said, For we are also his offspring. Forasmuch then as we are the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Godhead is like unto gold, or silver, or stone, graven by art and man's device. And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent: Because he hath appointed a day, in the which he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom he hath ordained; whereof he hath given assurance unto all men, in that he hath raised him from the dead. And when they heard of the resurrection of the dead, some mocked: and others said, We will hear thee again of this matter. So Paul departed from among them. Howbeit certain men clave unto him, and believed: among the which was Dionysius the Areopagite, and a woman named Damaris, and others with them."

- Acts Chapter 17

The patron saint of your servant is named after the Dionysius the Areopagite who "clave" unto Paul. -- Dionysios  (talk), Date: 2007-10-22 (October 22, 2007) Time:  2133 UTC

Gilmore v. Gonzales

Gilmore v. Gonzales, 435 F.3d 1125 (9th Cir. 2006), was a lawsuit filed by John Gilmore against various United States executive and independent agencies and departments, and against United Airlines. Gilmore claimed that being required to show identification in order to travel by plane inside the country is an unconstitutional restriction of his rights to travel, to petition government, and to speak anonymously. Gilmore also complained about being subject to "secret law," when the airlines and government refused to show the directive under which they were requesting ID.

The district court and Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals sided against Gilmore, holding there was no constitutional violation because air passengers could still travel without identification if they instead underwent the more stringent "secondary screening" search. While the court saw the Security Directive in camera, the public still has not been permitted to see the text.

Gilmore petitioned for certiorari to the U.S. Supreme Court, but in January 2007 the court declined to hear the case. As a result, the case is precedent for the Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit.

Seequa Chameleon

The Seequa Chameleon was an early 1980s luggable personal computer; it was capable of running both the DOS and CP/M operating systems. It did so by having both Zilog Z80 and Intel 8088 microprocessors.

While it ran MS-DOS and approximated the hardware capabilities of the IBM PC, it was highly PC compatible, being able to run such programs as Flight Simulator but was not a huge success in the market.

Seequa Computer Corporation was based in Annapolis, Maryland. It was founded by David Gardner (President) and Dave Egli (CEO), one of David's business professors at the University of Maryland. Seequa competed against the early "transportable" computers from Compaq.

Atari Lynx?
What's the talk about the "impending release of the Atari Lynx". Where? Atari Lynx was a portable released 1989. Did Dylan Cuthbert perhaps mean the Atari Jaguar, released 1993 available 1994? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.226.172.191 (talk) 20:41, 9 January 2010 (UTC)

an old EB games' ad had the box art, and this website has it, should it be included in the article? http://snescentral.edgeemu.com/cart.php?id=0077&num=0 http://snescentral.edgeemu.com/0/0/7/0077/box.png

Removed paragraph

 * However, it is questionable that Mega Man 6 for the Nintendo Entertainment System was released at about the same time as Mega Man X, Mega Man X2, and Mega Man 7 were being (or going to be) released for the Super Nintendo. If this is the case, then it still seems to be explained why Nintendo did not do the same for Star Fox 2 / Star Fox 64.

I removed this. Just because another company made the "questionable" move of releasing two games of the same franchise at around the same time does not mean that Nintendo should have followed suit with its own franchise. In any case, I don't think this statement is encyclopedic. - furrykef (Talk at me) 22:32, 4 January 2006 (UTC)

Cancellation
It obviously means that Nintendo was forced to cancel Star Fox 2 because of all the reasons said in this article. --Zachkudrna18@yahoo.com

 * First of all, and I want to point this out very clearly: The project was completely fininshed. Even programmer Dylan Cuthbert stated in this interview (Scroll down) that. .  . "Starfox 2 was fully completed. I was lead programmer and whilst Giles made Stunt Race FX, myself and the rest of the original Starfox team (ie. Nintendo's artists and designers) expanded Starfox into a full 3D shooting game" Parden my ranting, but can we please refer the game as unreleased instead of cancelled. Because if it was really cancelled, it wouldn't have looked so complete and playable as if it had been released to retail, and we wouldn't have seen a "The End" after actually beating the game. Remember the same situation happened to Earth Bound NES/Zero, in which the game was completed with all packaging and even advertising ready but was prevented release. I know all this because I personally experienced these good games and completed them.  Having the game labed cancelled is an common mistake; only the planned release was cancelled. Cancel is the wrong word to use. Thank you. Dragon DASH 20:02, 30 August 2006 (UTC)
 * The term "cancelled" is appropriate in this context because, even though the game may have been technically finished, its release was cancelled. A game project is not considered complete until it has been released, so calling it "cancelled" is correct.  The difference between "unreleased" and "cancelled" is that "unreleased" simply states that it was not released, but does nothing to address WHY it wasn't released.  "Cancelled" states that the reason the game was not released was because its project was cancelled - even at the very end, it's still true.
 * Note that saying it was "finished" is also (mostly) true here, since that addresses the state of the code. Without seeing the actual latest version of the source code, we can't verify that it was truly finished.  But as evidenced by the leaked playable ROM and the fact that people were able to fix that ROM's major bugs, it was at least really close. — KieferSkunk (talk) — 21:08, 30 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Ah I see. Thank you. That should verify things for me.Dragon DASH 21:27, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

Multiplayer mode?
In the beta version, I cannot find a multiplayer version. Did they actually put one in, or is thatsomething they didn't put in, just on design paper, which was given to Star Fox 64? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by George Leung (talk • contribs).
 * I dunno. The quote from Miyamoto says that they had multiplayer mode in SF2. Thunderbrand 16:11, 30 January 2006 (UTC)

The Alpha version had multiplayer. The Beta version did not. SnowflakePillow 01:17, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

 * Technically, the multiplayer mode does exist in the beta, but the main menu option to it was removed in the fan bugfix version since the mode was not really fully playable yet (evidence that the game itself wasn't completed, at least in the leaked beta). George is probably using the bugfix/English translated version. — KieferSkunk (talk) — 00:54, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
 * The Multiplayer was probably in the progress of removal for the supposed final version too. Dragon DASH 22:20, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

 * The Multiplayer mode is ONLY in the alpha. I've played the alpha, the final beta, and the fan translation. In the final beta no fan translation, there is no multiplayer. However, the entire alpha is in multiplayer, however player 2 is always Fox, and does not have their own window; hence player 1 must keep player two in their line of sight. 71.34.246.188 00:56, 23 May 2007 (UTC)

It should be mentioned somewhere in the article that the game was so close to completion and release that Nintendo Power featured a stragedy guide for it in one of the issues. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.161.104.34 (talk • contribs)

 * I was a subscriber to Nintendo Power throughout the period from when Star Fox 2 was announced to when it was canceled, and I am positive it never had any strategy guide or anything of the sort. - furrykef (Talk at me) 20:08, 13 June 2006 (UTC)

Failed GA nomination
I'm sorry to say that this article failed good article nomination. This is how the article, as of October 27, 2006, compares against the six GA criteria: 1. Is it well written?
 * (a) Prose - Pass
 * (b) Logical structure - Fail
 * (c) Good style - Fail
 * (d) Not too technical - Pass

2. Is it factually accurate?
 * (a) Well referenced - Fail
 * (b) Inline citation - Pass
 * (c) Reliable sources - Pass
 * (d) Original research - Pass

3. Does it have broad coverage?
 * (a) All major aspects - Fail
 * (b) Stays on topic - Pass

4. Neutral point of view - Pass 5. Stable - Pass 6. Images - Fail

Explanation of failed points:
 * 1b, Logical structure: A paragraph is repeated in the introduction of the article and the "Plot" section. The ESRB rating is in the "Development" section for some reason. The "Development" section itself spends more time discussing ROM emulations of the game then the development of the game.
 * 1c, Good style: The out-of-universe perspective could be reinforced throughout the "Gameplay" and "Plot and setting" sections. See here for the policy and examples. This is especially true in the "Plot" sub-section.
 * 2a, References: The "Gameplay" section has only one reference, and the "Plot and setting" section has none.
 * 3a, All major aspects: The game was close enough to release to have an ESRB rating, and it was also featured at E3. Surely more reviews of the game must exist? A review section would be appropriate. The article also has no information about the game's music, and the "Development" section is lacking in information about the game's development, as I pointed out above. Given the discussion of Star Fox 2 ROMs, a mention of the legal status of these ROMs could be useful. It is mentioned that some elements of this game made it into Star Fox 64; an actual section discussing comparing this game to Star Fox and Star Fox 64 would be a plus.
 * 6, Images: The image captions should be more detailed, so that the reader will know what he's seeing. Take for example the captions in Doom.

When these issues are addressed, the article can be resubmitted for consideration. Thanks for your work so far.

 * I'll try to address your concerns, but I cannot give reviews since the game was cancelled. Even through it was given a rating, the only people who have reviewed it are people who operate fan sites, and fan sites aren't really to be used as references. Thunderbrand 16:22, 28 October 2006 (UTC)
 * If it makes any difference, Retro Gamer Magazine (UK) recently ran an article about the Star Fox series (with development notes from the founder of Argonaut Software), and there's some discussion in there about Star Fox 2's cancellation. Still doesn't qualify as a review, but it does provide a more official source about the game. — KieferSkunk (talk) — 22:26, 30 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Thanks, but I doubt if I ever get back to this article to work on. I have other projects I would like to do, and there is just so little stuff on this game from reliable sources beside print stuff, and even that is pretty rare. Thunderbrand 15:25, 1 November 2006 (UTC)

Mecha
No way, transforming into bipedal robots was in that? I thought I made that up for a hypothetical Star Fox game :( Well, I guess I still did. Question is, why the hell hasn't this ever appeared in a newer game?

"Future game"
The article currently uses Template:Future game at the top. I feel this is inappropriate, since we have pretty much all the info, including the game itself, that will likely ever be released. There is little information that is subject to change. - furrykef (Talk at me) 08:14, 24 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Yeah, it's pretty pointless. I'll remove it. Thunderbrand 17:26, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

Enemy listings
I'm listing all of the bosses, names and discriptions, and perhaps all of the regular enemies. This should be as simple as a few playthroughs and writing down the names displayed for enemies. A.J. Comix 13:15, 14 May 2007 (UTC)

 * Please don't just list them unless you're going to provide additional information about each one. Wikipedia has too many lists. - furrykef (Talk at me) 17:02, 14 May 2007 (UTC)

Scam
Somebody posted an external link to an eBay auction claiming to be selling a PAL prototype version of an English version of the game. This is obviously a scam, because 1) it seems unlikely that a PAL prototype was made; 2) from what I know, prototype carts usually do not look like normal carts; and 3) screenshots of the game show that it's clearly the fan translation. It's possible that the cart is real in the sense that you can put it in your SNES and play it, but anybody can make something like that from a ROM using the right tools. If they try putting it back in the article, revert it immediately and do not even think of bidding on it. - furrykef (Talk at me) 20:08, 7 June 2007 (UTC)

ROM
It should be noted that the ROM has been leaked by somebody who found an actual prototype cart and dumped it.

Starfox 2 was never on a prototype cart. It was leaked as a pure binary. If you read d4s' notes on the game, he states this is the case (note that d4s was the person the game was leaked to). 64.201.208.135 (talk) 05:06, 30 January 2010 (UTC)

Time frame
The article doesn't mention a single year. I could imagine if a reader who isn't familiar with video games reads this article finds it hard to place the time when this game was developed. Only thing mentioned in the article is that the game was about to be released before the N64. So the article assumes the reader knows when the N64 was released or it wants the reader to find the info alone. The article mentions for example that the game appeared in E3 but what year? Really, without the N64 and SNES references the article could be talking about a 2007 game. --Mika1h 18:23, 25 August 2007 (UTC)

I've played the ROM dump (With the "Final" patch) and the date on the title screen is noted as 1995. I've added this to the article.--A.J. Comix 15:40, 13 November 2007 (UTC)

Wiiware Rumors
I thought I should let you know that I've heard a rumor from my older brother concerning this game 's future. I can't recall all the details, but he said that if & when the SNES Starfox game gets released for the Wii there's also an interest and possibility that this game (the cancelled sequel) would be released to the public as well. Additionally, if it was to come out it would be a completed and (officially) translated version from Nintendo itself. Then again, it could be wrong that such a thing can happen, though I wanted to put this out in the discussion here for anyone to weigh in. Signed by (66.136.118.158 (talk) 05:26, 15 July 2008 (UTC))

Grounds For A Mention In The Article? Kperfekt722 22:50, 14 August 2008 (UTC)

but, its from nintendo. on a side not, there is a complete english version, you can catch videos of the emulator on youtube. KP317 23:04, 15 August 2008 (UTC)

 * I already explained that there is no way to prove that you received such an e-mail from Nintendo. Your statement needs a reliable source, and an e-mail does not count as a reliable source, period. Also, the English version is a fan translation that was made a few years ago. It doesn't count. - furrykef (Talk at me) 06:49, 16 August 2008 (UTC)

i never said an email was a reliable source, i asked if that translation was real. KP317 13:44, 20 August 2008 (UTC)

Prototype ROM Images
The article notes that there are three ROM images, and that the two early ones are from trade shows. I dispute that these ROM images are from prototypes shown at trade shows, because the first showing of StarFox 2 was at the Winter 1995 CES, which showed a far more advanced version of StarFox 2 than the two leaked prototypes. I challenge anyone to find media on StarFox 2 prior to the Winter 1995 CES, aside from rumours on Usenet. 64.201.208.135 (talk) 05:16, 30 January 2010 (UTC)

Pirate Copies
Please do not remove the segment on Pirated Copies. Although it may require some reformatting or modification of citations, I do not believe it was justified to delete the article subject entirely. It is my belief that this segment deletion was for the sole purpose of increasing profit margins of sellers of these illegal copies. No arguments were ever refuted about this paragraph, the subject was simply removed. Xaj (talk) 14:17, 26 March 2010 (UTC)

Completed English copies
In the article, it states that it is not sure whether there are any completed English copies. I would just like to say that there are indeed English copies, since I was able to play one completely- The cartridge was also marked with the official Nintendo seal, so I am fairly certain that it was made by Nintendo. I didn't change the article since I have no sources, though. 68.148.46.173 (talk) 02:16, 17 April 2012 (UTC)

 * It's very easy to fake a seal. Unfortunately, chances are very good that you bought a reproduction cart. Check screenshots from the translation by Aeon Genesis.

Genre: rail shooter
It doesn't seem accurate to list "rail shooter" as this game's genre. Rail shooters are games where movement is in a single direction, such as the original Star Fox, but Star Fox 2 allows movement in any direction. Are there any sources that say what genre Star Fox 2 belongs in? --Captain Occam (talk) 22:43, 2 October 2017 (UTC)

 * This is more accurately a space-flight sim (flying segments) and third-person shooter (walker segments). Few if any segments of the game are on-rails. I have updated the intro. Some guy (talk) 16:23, 6 September 2018 (UTC)

Henry J. Friel

Henry James Friel (15 April 1823 – 16 May 1869) was mayor of Bytown in 1854 and then of Ottawa in 1863 and 1868–1869.

He was born in Montreal of Irish Catholic parents Charles Friel and Cecila Brennan on 15 April 1823. His family moved to Bytown, which was later renamed Ottawa, in 1827.

Political life
Friel was elected to Bytown's first town council in 1847. He was defeated the following year, but elected alderman in 1850, 1853 and 1854, when he was elected mayor. He also served on the executive of the Bytown Mechanics' Institute. In 1849 when rioting broke out over a proposed visit by Governor General Elgin Bruce, Friel was among those arrested for abetting the looting of the government arsenal at Hull to supply arms to the Reform rioters.

The municipality of Bytown became the new city of Ottawa in 1855. Friel was elected alderman there from 1855 to 1858 and in 1864, 1865 and 1867. In 1863, he was a member of the first Board of Police Commissioners for Ottawa. The board, with the aim of avoiding unnecessary expense, originally concluded that there was no need for a salaried police force in the city. However, in May that same year, the militia had to be called in to control a riot in the city. In 1865, a bylaw was introduced establishing an official police force. In 1868, while mayor, Friel posted a proclamation announcing a $2,000 reward for information leading to the conviction of the assassin of Thomas D'Arcy McGee. He also contributed $2,000 of his own money for the reward.

Professional life
In 1846, he purchased the Bytown Packet, a local newspaper, with John George Bell. He sold this paper in October 1849 to Robert Bell, who renamed it the Ottawa Citizen in 1849. In 1858, he established a new paper, the Ottawa Union, also referred to as the Daily Union. He later sold it to a rival paper, the Ottawa Times in 1866.

Personal life
Henry James Friel was born April 15th, 1823 in Montreal of Irish Catholic parents Charles Friel and Cecila Brennan. His family moved to Bytown, which was later renamed Ottawa, in 1827.

He died in Ottawa in 1869 of pneumonia while still in office. His funeral sermon was delivered in Notre-Dame Cathedral (Ottawa) on Wednesday, 19 May 1869 by Aeneas Mcdonell Dawson.

Princess Victoria Louise of Prussia

Princess Victoria Louise of Prussia (Viktoria Luise Adelheid Mathilde Charlotte; 13 September 1892 – 11 December 1980) was the only daughter and the last child of Wilhelm II, German Emperor, and Augusta Victoria of Schleswig-Holstein. Through her father, Victoria Louise was a great-granddaughter of Queen Victoria of the United Kingdom.

Victoria Louise's 1913 wedding to Prince Ernest Augustus of Hanover was the largest gathering of reigning monarchs in Germany since German unification in 1871, and one of the last great social events of European royalty before the First World War began fourteen months later. Shortly after the wedding, she became the Duchess of Brunswick by marriage.

Early life and education
Princess Victoria Louise was born on 13 September 1892 at the Marmorpalais in Potsdam, the seventh child and only daughter of German Emperor Wilhelm II and Empress Augusta Victoria. "After six sons, God has given us our seventh child, a small but very strong little daughter," the empress wrote in her diary soon after the birth. The princess was baptised in the Marble Gallery of the New Palace in Potsdam on 22 October, the birthday of the empress. She was named Victoria after her paternal great-grandmother, Queen Victoria, and Luise after her paternal great-great-grandmother, Louise of Mecklenburg-Strelitz. Known officially as Victoria Louise, she was nicknamed "Sissy" by her family.

Historian Justin C. Vovk writes that Victoria Louise was intelligent like her paternal grandmother Empress Frederick, stately and dignified like her mother, but imperious and willful like her father. She enjoyed being the center of attention and was her father's favourite. According to her eldest brother Crown Prince Wilhelm, Victoria Louise was "the only one of us who succeeded in her childhood in gaining a snug place" in their father's heart. In 1902, her English governess, Anne Topham, observed in their first meeting that the nine-year-old princess was friendly, energetic, and always quarreling with her next eldest brother, Prince Joachim. Anne later noted that the "warlike" emperor "unbends to a considerable extent when in the bosom of his family," and is the "dominating force of his daughter's life. His ideas, his opinions on men and things are persistently quoted by her."

The family resided at Homburg Castle, and Victoria Louise and Joachim would often visit their cousins – the children of the Prussian princesses Margaret and Sophia – at nearby Kronberg Castle. In 1905, the princess studied music with concert pianist Sandra Droucker. For one week in May 1911, Victoria Louise traveled to England aboard the royal yacht Hohenzollern with her parents, where they visited their cousin George V, for the unveiling of a statue of Queen Victoria in front of Buckingham Palace. The princess's confirmation took place at Friedenskirche in Potsdam on 18 October 1909.

Marriage
In 1912, Ernest Augustus, the wealthy heir-apparent to the title of Duke of Cumberland and Teviotdale, came to the Berlin court to thank Emperor Wilhelm for having Crown Prince Wilhelm and Prince Eitel Friedrich attend the funeral of his brother, Prince George William. At the time, the House of Hanover lived in exile at Gmunden, Austria. While in Berlin, Ernest Augustus met Victoria Louise and the two became smitten with each other. However, any discussions of marriage were prolonged for months due to political concerns; Ernest Augustus was also the heir to the Kingdom of Hanover, which the Kingdom of Prussia annexed following the 1866 Austro-Prussian War. The Prussian crown prince was displeased with the match and wished that Ernest Augustus would abdicate his rights to Hanover; in a compromise, it was decided that, in exchange, he would succeed to the smaller duchy of Brunswick, of which his father was the lawful heir. The family had been barred from the succession to Brunswick due to their claims towards the Hanoverian kingdom.

Ernest and Victoria became engaged in Karlsruhe on 11 February 1913. Their extravagant wedding took place on 24 May 1913 in Berlin. It was hailed in the press as the end of the rift between the House of Hanover and House of Hohenzollern that had existed since the 1866 annexation. The Times described the union as akin to Romeo and Juliet, albeit with a happier ending. Despite press fixation on the union as a love match, whether the match was one of love or politics remains unclear; historian Eva Giloi believes that the marriage was more likely the result of Prussia's desire to end the rift, though Victoria Louise described it as a "love match” in one of her letters.

In a diplomatic gesture, Emperor Wilhelm invited almost all of his extended family. He also pardoned and released two imprisoned British spies, Captain Bertrand Stewart and Captain Bernard Frederick Trench, as a present to the United Kingdom. The wedding became the largest gathering of reigning monarchs in Germany since German unification in 1871, and one of the last great social events of European royalty before World War I began fourteen months later. Attendees included Wilhelm's cousins George V and Tsar Nicholas II, who were also cousins of Ernest Augustus through their mothers. The wedding feast included 1,200 guests. Empress Augusta Victoria took the separation from her only daughter badly and wept.

Husband and children
The new duke and duchess of Brunswick moved into Brunswick Palace in the capital of Brunswick and began their family with the birth of their eldest son, Prince Ernest Augustus, less than a year after their wedding. They had four further children: Prince George William (1915–2006), Princess Frederica (1917–1981), Prince Christian Oscar (1919–1981), and Prince Welf Henry (1923–1997). Through Frederica, Victoria Louise was a great-grandmother of Felipe VI of Spain.

On 8 November 1918, her husband was forced to abdicate his throne along with the other German kings, grand dukes, dukes, and princes, and the duchy of Brunswick was subsequently abolished. The next year, he was deprived of his British peerages under the Titles Deprivation Act 1917 as a result of his service in the German army during the war. Thus, when his father died in 1923, Ernest Augustus did not succeed to his father's British title of Duke of Cumberland.

Interwar years
For the next thirty years, Ernest Augustus remained the head of the House of Hanover, living in retirement on his various estates with his family, mainly Blankenburg Castle in Germany and Cumberland Castle in Gmunden, Austria. He also owned Marienburg Castle near Hanover; however, the couple rarely lived there until 1945.

Several of Victoria Louise's brothers were early members of the Nazi party, including former Crown Prince Wilhelm and Prince August Wilhelm. While Ernest Augustus never officially joined the party, he donated funds and was close to several leaders.

As a former British prince, Ernest Augustus as well as Victoria Louise desired a rapprochement between the United Kingdom and Germany. Ostensibly desiring to pursue an alliance with the UK, in the mid-1930s, Adolf Hitler took advantage of their sentiment by asking the couple to arrange a match between their daughter Princess Frederica and the Prince of Wales. The Duke and Duchess of Brunswick refused, believing that the age difference was too great; Princess Frederica would have been around 18 years of age while Edward was over 22 years older. Following his brief reign as King Edward VIII in 1936 Edward, now Duke of Windsor, and his wife Wallis visited "the Cumberlands" at Cumberland Castle in Gmunden, Austria. Instead, in 1938 Princess Frederica married her second cousin, the future King Paul of Greece.

World War II
In May 1941, her father fell ill from an intestinal blockage, and Victoria Louise traveled to Doorn to visit him, as did several of her brothers. Wilhelm recovered enough for them to feel able to depart, but soon relapsed. Victoria Louise returned in time to be at her father's bedside, along with nephew Louis Ferdinand and stepmother Hermine, when he died on 4 June 1941 of a pulmonary embolism. By the time of the war's ending in Europe in April 1945, Victoria Louise was living with her husband at Blankenburg Castle. A few days before Blankenburg was handed over to the Red Army by British and U.S. forces in late 1945, to become part of East Germany, the family was able to move to Marienburg Castle, at the time located in the British Occupation Zone, with all their furniture, transported by British Army trucks, on the order of George VI.

Later life

After the war, Victoria Louise spent much of her time attending public events in Lower Saxony, supporting palace restoration projects, high-society parties, hunting, and the showing of horses. She also spent time helping with philanthropic causes, for instance supporting a holiday estate for low-income children. Her husband died at Marienburg on 30 January 1953. When her eldest son made Marienburg a museum in 1954 and moved himself to Calenberg Estate nearby, she became at odds with him, although he had offered her several other manor houses to move in. There was also a rivalry between them about her popularity and public appearances. Instead, she moved back to Brunswick, occupying a house which had been offered to her by a wealthy industrialist and a circle of fans called "Braunschweiger Freundeskreis" (circle of Brunswick friends). She lived there until her death.

In 1965 she published her autobiography Life as Daughter of the Emperor, and thereafter several other books, including biographies of her mother and of her sister-in-law Cecilie, the last crown princess of Germany. It is however believed that her publisher Leonhard Schlüter served as her ghostwriter.

She is buried next to her husband in front of the Royal Mausoleum in the Berggarten at Herrenhausen Gardens in Hanover, which is the burial chapel of Ernest Augustus, King of Hanover, and his wife and, since his reburial after World War II, also of George I of Great Britain.

Mark Lehner

Mark Lehner (born 1950 in Dakota) is an American archaeologist with more than 30 years of experience excavating in Egypt. He is the director of Ancient Egypt Research Associates (AERA) and has appeared in numerous tv documentaries.

His approach is to conduct interdisciplinary archaeological investigation. Every excavated object is examined by specialists to create an overall picture of an archaeological site—from the buildings down to the pollen spores.

His international team currently runs the Giza Plateau Mapping Project, excavating and mapping the ancient city of the builders of the Giza pyramid complex, which dates to the fourth dynasty of Egypt. He discovered that Pyramid G1-a, one of the subsidiary pyramids of the Great Pyramid, belonged to Hetepheres I; it was originally thought to belong to Queen Meritites I.

Education and career
Lehner first went to Egypt as a student in the 1970s. Intrigued by the mysteries of the "Sleeping Prophet", Edgar Cayce, Lehner "found that [my] initial notions about the ancient civilization along the Nile could not stand up to the bedrock reality of the Giza Plateau". He turned to the scientific method of discovery in order to understand the culture better, returning some years later to complete a doctoral degree at Yale University. Lehner's 1991 dissertation was titled Archaeology of an image: The Great Sphinx of Giza.

Lehner's team has more recently included parts of Menkaure's valley temple and the town attached to the monument of Queen Khentkawes in their excavations. AERA's 2009 field season was recorded in a blog. AERA has conducted a number of archaeological field schools for Egyptian antiquities inspectors under the auspices of Egypt's Supreme Council of Antiquities. The AERA team has run basic and advanced courses at Giza, as well as courses in salvage archaeology along the Avenue of Sphinxes north of Luxor Temple in the city of Luxor.

Among his other work in Egypt, Lehner has produced the only known scale maps of the Giza Sphinx.

Lehner's book, "The Complete Pyramids" (1997), is an exhaustive catalogue of Egypt's many pyramid sites. He has appeared in many television programs about Ancient Egypt. He is a visiting assistant professor of Egyptian archaeology at the Oriental Institute of the University of Chicago.

In 1985, he published a proposal for building the Great Pyramid using two ramps. The outer ramp starts in the south at the quarries and leads to the southwest corner of the pyramid. The second ramp starts at the southeast corner and flows into the outer ramp. From the junction point, the ramp spirals upwards.

Lehner took part in an American Association for the Advancement of Science debate centered around controversy surrounding the age of the Sphinx at Giza.

Lehner has also starred and aided in the production of several documentaries about the pyramids which are regularly aired on the National Geographic Channel.

He has argued that the Giza Necropolis was built in a span of 85 years between 2589 and 2504 BC.
