Henry Neville (died 1615)

Sir Henry Neville (baptised 20 May 1564 – 10 July 1615 ) was an English courtier, politician and diplomat, noted for his role as ambassador to France and his unsuccessful attempts to negotiate between James I of England and the Houses of Parliament. In 2005, Neville was put forward as a candidate for the authorship of Shakespeare's works.

Family
Neville was the elder son of Sir Henry Neville (died 1593) and his second wife, Elizabeth Gresham (died 6 November 1573), granddaughter of Sir Richard Gresham, Lord Mayor of London, and only daughter and heir of the latter's elder son, John Gresham (died 1560), by Frances Thwaytes, the daughter and coheir of Sir Henry Thwaytes of Lund, Yorkshire.

Neville's father had earlier married, between 1551 and 1555, Winifred Losse (died in or before 1561), daughter of a property speculator, Hugh Losse (died 1555) of Whitchurch, London, by whom he had no children.

After the death of his second wife, Neville's father married thirdly, about May 1578, Elizabeth Bacon (c. 1541 – 3 May 1621), widow of Sir Robert Doyley (died between 21 and 29 July 1577) of Chislehampton, Oxfordshire, and Greenlands in Hambleden, Buckinghamshire. Elizabeth Bacon was the eldest daughter of Queen Elizabeth's Lord Keeper of the Great Seal, Sir Nicholas Bacon (1510–1579), by his first wife, Jane Ferneley (died 1552), the daughter of William Ferneley of Suffolk. After Neville's death, his widow, Elizabeth, married, before the end of September 1595, Sir William Peryam (died 9 October 1604). She made her last will on 12 November 1618 and died on 3 May 1621. There is a monument to her in the church of St Mary's Henley-on-Thames.

Neville's father was a great-great-grandson of Ralph Neville, 1st Earl of Westmorland and Joan Beaufort, Countess of Westmoreland, the daughter of John of Gaunt, 1st Duke of Lancaster, by Katherine Swynford.

Career
Neville grew up at Billingbear House at Waltham St Lawrence in Berkshire. At the age of fifteen, he matriculated from Merton College, Oxford, on 20 December 1577. His tutor was Henry Savile, later warden of Merton. In 1578 Neville accompanied Savile on a continental tour, visiting Padua, Venice, and Prague and meeting scientists and humanists, including Johannes Praetorius, Andreas Dudith, and Gian Vincenzo Pinelli.

Neville sat in Parliament as the member for New Windsor (1584, 1586 and 1593), Sussex (1589), Liskeard (1597) and Berkshire (1604, 1614). He served as High Sheriff of Berkshire in 1595. Before his father's death, he lived at the old Archbishop's Palace at Mayfield in Sussex, inherited from his great-uncle Sir Thomas Gresham (died 1579), where he ran a highly successful cannon manufactury. He was appointed Deputy Lieutenant of Berkshire in 1596 and moved to Billingbear the next year. He was knighted in 1599.

In 1599, Neville was appointed Ambassador to France and attended the court of Henri IV. Although knighted for his services in France, he was unhappy with the way he was treated by the French and in 1600, complaining of deafness, he asked to be recalled to England.

After his return he became involved with the Essex Rebellion of 1601 and was imprisoned in the Tower of London. His close friend Henry Wriothesley, 3rd Earl of Southampton, was also imprisoned there at this time in connection with the plot.

He was stripped of his position and fined £5,000, which he agreed to pay in annual instalments of £1,000. After the death of Elizabeth I of England and the accession of James I a Royal Warrant was issued for his release.

After his release, he played a greater role in the political life of the nation, but earned the antagonism of King James by advocating the King surrender to the demands of the House of Commons.

In the first session of 1610, and again in 1612, he advised the king to give way to the demands of the House of Commons. It was these actions that, on the death of Robert Cecil, 1st Earl of Salisbury, in May 1612, lost him the possibility of becoming the Secretary of State. Although offered the position of Treasurer of the Chamber he turned it down.

Neville died in 1615 and was buried at the church of St Lawrence in Waltham St Lawrence.

Shakespeare authorship
In 2005, Neville was proposed as the actual author of Shakespeare's works. The attribution is rejected by almost all academic Shakespeareans who have responded to the claim.

Marriage and issue
In December 1584, Neville married Anne Killigrew (died 1632), the daughter of Henry Killigrew (died 1603) and Catherine Cooke, sister-in-law of William Cecil, 1st Baron Burghley, by whom he had five sons and six daughters:
 * Sir Henry Neville (II), 1588–29 June 1629, married Elizabeth Smyth; among his children were Richard Neville (soldier) and Henry Neville.
 * Catherine Neville, c. 1590–1650, married Sir Richard Brooke.
 * Frances Neville, 1592–1659, married Sir Richard Worsley, 1st Baronet then Jerome Brett.
 * Mary Neville, NK – 28 October 1642, married Sir Edward Lewknor.
 * William Neville, 1596–1640, second son, married Catherine Billingley, issue unknown.
 * Edward Neville, 1602–1632, married Alice Pryor, issue.
 * Robert Neville, 1604-NK
 * Dorothy Neville, 1605–1673, married Richard Catlin.
 * Charles Neville, 1607–1626, probably unmarried.
 * Richard Neville, 1608–1644, married unknown, issue.
 * Elizabeth Neville, NK – 4 January 1657, married William Glover, then Sir Henry Berkeley, then Thomas Duke.
 * Anne Neville, 1610-NK.

Talk:Elliott ALGOL

Untitled
This page should be called "Elliott Algol" - but I don't know how to rename it!! (bil@beeb.net) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 195.248.107.182 (talk) 08:45, 5 October 2005 (UTC)

These two implementations are completely unrelated, except insofar as they are implementations of the language designed by John Backus and others and described in their Report on the algorithmic language ALGOL 60.

Elliott Algol was implemented by C.A.R.Hoare in the UK for Elliott Brothers to run on their Elliott 803 and subsequent Elliott 503 computers and first released in 1963. The first dialect of Burroughs Extended Algol was implemented by designers of the Burroughs B5000 (later B5500) computer led by Bob Barton in the US and released in 1961. The B5000, like its successor machines, the B6500/6700 and B7700/7800, was unusual in that it had no assembly language. The operating system was writted in an extended Algol dialect.

Owen Reddecliffe is an Australian who worked for Burroughs in Australia during the 1970s. Unless there is evidence to the contrary I don't believe he ever had anything to do with Elliott Algol. The only Elliott machines in Australasia were, I believe the 503s in Hobart and Wellington, in joint government-university computing centres. Both as it happens were superseded by Burroughs B6700 machines but the history of how that happened is not relevant here.

124.170.18.14 (talk) 10:05, 19 August 2008 (UTC)

which ALGOL
I think this page is confusing two different implementation of ALGOL. The one that ran on Elliott machines and the one that ran on Burroughs machines. Iccaldwell 10:54, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

The Elliott Algol I know about is the famous one associated supplied for the Elliott 803 computer in the early 1960's (although targeted at it's successor, the less-well-known but much faster 503). According to the original Elliott book I have in front of me, the company was known as National Elliott at the time, although the company changed names and owners regularly. On the back of the book it says to contact Elliott-Automation Computers Ltd, Elstree Way, Borehamwood (England) for scientific applications and NCR Electronics in Marylebone Road for commercial uses.

Elliott Algol was very definitely an implementation of Algol 60. Some of the brains behind it were Jeff Hillmore, Dan Simpson, Jill Pym and most notably, Prof. Tony Hoare (inventor of the quicksort algorithm, sometimes know as Charles Hoare but usually CAR Hoare).

I knew this compiler fairly well, but know nothing of any later connection with Burroughs. That's not to say that it didn't reappear on a different platform. I agree with Iccaldwell - I think there's confusion about implementations here. Can anyone add to this? I've since come to regard the Elliott Algol compiler as something of a milestone in computing. I didn't realise who good a language it was until I had to use some of the other's around at the time. Fjleonhardt (talk) 20:27, 4 May 2008 (UTC)

Merge proposal
It seems from the very limited amount of discussion and similarly limited page history that the language being described in this article is something to do with the Burroughs range and nothing to do with Elliott Brothers (computer company), so I'm proposing that the Burroughs article take anything that might be pertinent from here if it's not already in there, then I'll propose that this article be deleted unless someone can come up with anything notable about Elliot ALGOL, possibly from http://www.billp.org/ccs/A104/ (cited on the main ALGOL page).

--ClickRick (talk) 21:50, 18 May 2009 (UTC)

Paul Kimpel and I corresponded about this claimed connection between Elliott ALGOL and Burroughs ALGOL and having looked at both over the recent years, agree with Paul's analysis that they are unrelated, except for the possibility that both groups were involved with the general debate about the ALGOL language and may have discussed implementation strategies. Burroughs ALGOL was a single pass compiler, Elliott was multi-pass, Paul goes on to state: "... Elliot Algol had a number of significant limitations that B5000 Algol did not: no branching out of a procedure body to an external label, bounds of an own array must be constants, recursive procedures must not have scalar parameters called by name, no procedures as formal parameters, identifiers significant only in the first six characters, etc. All of this suggests the Burroughs compiler had a completely different design." This page should be kept however, as there is more to be added about Elliott ALGOL, particularly Bill Purvis's efforts, and hopefully soon more detail about the 503 ALGOL compiler differences (compared with the 803). --Nigwil (talk) 23:08, 3 March 2012 (UTC)

Surdo

The surdo is a bass drum or a large floor tom-like drum used in many kinds of Brazilian music, such as Axé/Samba-reggae and samba, where it plays the lower parts from a percussion section. The instrument was created by Alcebíades Barcelos during the 1920s and 1930s as part of his work with the first samba school in Rio de Janeiro, Deixa Falar. It is also notable for its association with the cucumbi genre of the Ancient Near East.

Surdo sizes normally vary between 40 cm and 65 cm diameter, with some as large as 73 cm. In Rio de Janeiro, surdos are generally 60 cm deep. Surdos used in the northeast of Brazil are commonly shallower, at 50 cm deep. Surdos may have shells of wood, galvanized steel, or aluminum. Heads may be goatskin or plastic. A Rio bateria will commonly use surdos that have skin heads (for rich tone) and aluminum shells (for lower weight). Surdos are worn from a waist belt or shoulder strap, oriented with the heads roughly horizontal. The bottom head is not played. Surdo drummers beat the drums using hard or soft mallets.

Rio-style Carnival samba
A typical carnival samba bateria in Rio de Janeiro has three distinguishable surdo parts, each played by a drum that has a distinctive tuning due to its distinct size. The pattern of these three surdo parts is the rhythm that propels the samba.

The surdo is the largest and deepest-pitched drum in the bateria—it plays the primeira (Portuguese: first) or marcação (Portuguese: marker) part. This surdo is typically between 22" and 26" in diameter. The primeira pulse is the entire bateria's rhythmic reference. It sounds on the second beat of the samba's basic "one, two" rhythm, and this surdo may also sound pick-up notes to start the music.

A slightly smaller and higher-pitched surdo answers the primeira by playing the segunda (Portuguese: second), resposta (Portuguese: response), or respondor (Portuguese: that which responds) part. This surdo is a drum 20" or 22" in diameter, and it sounds on the first beat of the basic "one, two" rhythm of the samba.

The smallest, highest-pitched surdo, generally between 14" and 18" in diameter, plays the terceira (Portuguese: third) or cutador (Portuguese: cutter) part. The terceira "cuts" across the basic pulse of the other two surdo parts with a complex pattern of fills and syncopations. The feel of the bateria is driven by the terceira's "swing". The only surdo player with even limited room to improvise is the terceira player. it is used in the samba

Other Brazilian music
Surdos are used by samba-reggae and axé music groups of northeastern Brazil. Samba-reggae usually has two (or even 3) surdo tunings, the lowest tuning playing the pulse on 2 and the higher tuning playing the 1. Middle Surdos, (tuned either as the 2 or slightly higher), playing any number of counterpatterns. The middle surdos are played with two mallets in samba-reggae to allow for more complex rhythms.

Single surdos are also used extensively in smaller samba and pagode bands.

Other bass drums found elsewhere in Brazil include the zabumba and alfaia of the northeast.

Talk:Aquila (TV series)

Could someone please translate properly the phrase 'Fly with the wings of an eagle' into Latin. It was printed (in Latin) on the space ship and read something like 'Subat Aterum Aquila Volat'. smurray  in   chester (User), (Talk) 08:51, 5 October 2005 (UTC)

 * The current translation "Licat volare si super tergum aquila volat" seems to be incorrect Latin. "aquilae" a genitive form, seems more appropriate.--Joris Gillis 18:55, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

 * Have changed the translation of the harness text to the original (and more correct) form shown in the pilot episode: "Any man can fly if he rides on the back of an eagle." 82.32.192.176 20:24, 23 September 2007 (UTC)

Novel/TV Discrepancies
It's been a long time since I saw this show (great as it was) and I can't remember the detail of the ship's discovery - the article did list a discrepancy with the novel which I have tried to clear up but I'm not sure which version belongs to which - the main paragraph seems to refer to both... QmunkE 14:02, 1 February 2006 (UTC)

Introduction
Roman Spacecraft? Since when was it Roman? The excavation was Roman, but it was never suggested that the spaceship itself was. I seriously think that needs removing - will do so in seven days if no objections. TheIslander 18:50, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

dvd
Hi, anyone know where to find a series online?

- They are now on google video

Episode links
Do not add links to episodes here, they are potentially in violation of copyright, and not very encyclopaedic. --Darksun 15:06, 14 May 2007 (UTC)

Didn't the BBC agreed to allow YouTube and Google video to store their videos online as long as they have the right to remove any they deem to be inappropriate? Meaning the BBC T.V. show Aquila is not in violation of copyright... As for it being "encyclopaedic", I would disagree as what is better than describing something than having a copy of the original? Besides, if Wikipedia showed the click-through rate of links, I have a feeling they are used quite a lot. This Wikipedia page (in my opinion) is the only real central webpage dedicated to the Aquila T.V. show. People have the right to be pointed in the right direction don't they? There are hundreds of people trying to find this old T.V. show and as the BBC decided to abandon it, don't you think its up to us to help keep it alive? -- 137.205.70.62 11:50, 15 May 2007

 * Wikipedia is not a webspace provider. This is supposed to be an encyclopedia, not a fan site or anything similar. If you want to make a fan site with these links, then there are plenty of free and commercial webhosts out there for you to do so. --Darksun 11:25, 15 May 2007 (UTC)

 * I checked that link and didn't find anything about not being able to link to useful sources for more information. The Google links are not turning the article into a "personal web pages", "blog", "Social Networking", "File Storage" or "Dating service". What part of that article you linked states linking to another website turns an article into a "web space provider"?... This conversation is using more web space than the links on the main article. -- 137.205.70.62 11:50, 15 May 2007

 * I just really don't think it looks right having a dozen external links to video files, it'd be better to link to an external site linking to them, if at all. --Darksun 12:39, 15 May 2007 (UTC)
 * And for a start, we don't need each link in the article twice. If they are going to be in, then they should be in the external links section and not in the main body. --Darksun 12:42, 15 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Point taken, I'll remove the body links. -- 137.205.70.62 12:40, 15 May 2007
 * Episode links to a legit source should be allowed (such as BBC news video as a source on a current event - preferably from the original source such as bbc.co.uk rather than the youtube copy), it is out of the question to link to a copyright violation (such as video of an illegal distribution of anime like the ones on youtube). If the videos are relased under a free license or became public domain, they can be but to commons. -- Cat chi? 12:44, 15 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Well, the question of whether or not this is copyvio isn't all that clear. They are obviously not a legitmate/official release, but the BBC has said they "would not be hunting down all BBC-copyrighted clips already uploaded by YouTube members". However, this doesn't stop them being copyright violation, so what is to be done? --Darksun 12:51, 15 May 2007 (UTC)

 * Sit around and wait till the BBC make a decision as to whether they want to remove it from Google Video or not. As soon as they become dead links, remove them. -- 137.205.70.62 3:53, 15 May 2007

 * That's not really very good logic though. It'd be like saying the article on Windows Vista or any other software is fine having a link to download a warez copy, as long as the link is removed when it goes dead. --Darksun 16:34, 15 May 2007 (UTC)

 * Not really, As the policy is diffrent. A warez copy of Windows Vista is in direct copyright violation. The BBC stated that they wanted to retain the right to remove any content they feel is inapropriate. So untill the BBC decide that Aquila shouldn't be publicly available on the internet, then under their own words, there is nothing wrong with it being on Google Video. Where as Microsoft do nothing but remind us of how much they loath pirated copies of windows. I'm gonna have to get on with my revision now though, so I ask someone else to take up the defense for me... I know of hundreds of people who stand by me on this. :) -- 137.205.70.62 5:42, 15 May 2007

 * I find that if you really think that linking the episodes is relevent to the article, and is necessary, go ahead, put it, as long as it doesn't void copyrights. However, I don't think it is necessary to link to every single episode. Furthermore, if the reader wants to see the episode, he'll just Google it. No need to put the link in. --PostScript (info/talk/contribs) 17:01, 16 July 2007 (UTC)

 * Furthermore, even if BBC did agree not to pursue people who violate the copyright, it looks dirty to have a copyright vio on Wikipedia. --PostScript (info/talk/contribs) 17:05, 16 July 2007 (UTC)

 * I agree with 137.205.70.62:
 * Wikipedia articles should link to the closest source possible when at all possible. If this were a page regarding a speech by George w. Bush, we should link to the speech archive on www.whitehouse.gov.
 * Wikipedia should NOT link to copyvio material. If there is a question in the legality of this stuff, let's pop an email off to the beeb and ask them! No need to debate what they say.
 * It's much better to have the links to the videos here because all sites we link to should be respected, trustworthy sites. And what respected, trustworthy site would have those links?  (www.tv-links.co.uk maybe?  I don't know many others like that)(and I don't know any that are respected)
 * So in summary, if what 137.205.70.62 says is true and the beeb is ok with this show being on google video, then it should stay. --Ceas webmaster 17:05, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Just because the clips haven't been removed does not mean that they are not copyright infringements. Only when there is written evidence that the BBC have given explicit permission to Google to host episode 1x01 through to 2x06 will it cease to be a copyright violation. As links to copyrighted material wrongly uploaded are prohibited by Wikipedia policy, ("If you know that an external Web site is carrying a work in violation of the creator's copyright, do not link to that copy of the work."), I have removed the links. Besides, if others want to find these, they'll just google them and find them. The Islander 18:35, 20 July 2007 (UTC)

 * How dare you just remove content without finishing an active discussion! Do some research before you start attacking articles on this site. It was in the news several months back that the BBC agreed on a partnership with YouTube and Google Video where by they allow them to freely show any BBC content as long as it is not used in a negative way (i.e. edited to have a damaging effect). In return the BBC use YouTube/Google Video to show any content it wishes (i.e. Previews/Episodes of their popular T.V. shows like TopGear and The Apprentice). In their own words, they have stated that anything uploaded onto YouTube/Google Video which is created by them is not infringing on copyright. They do however retain the right to remove any content they deem unfit for public viewing. So stop second guessing the BBC! Some of you obviously have a problem with being over zealous. -- 87.127.129.65 2:02 24th July 2007 (GMT)

 * Please see your talk page. I am not attacking articles on this site; I'll find admins to back me up if I really must. The links being added to this guide are copyrighted - until there is written evidence that the BBC gives direct permission to Google to show these videos, they're nothing more than copyright infringements, regardless of what was on the news recently (which, incidently, no one's linked to yet). All this aside, hypothetically assuming that the videos are legit, Wikipedia is not a place to dump loads of links. That makes two solid, undeniable reasons for those links not to be added. Before attacking anyone again, bear in mind that it'll only lead to a ban ;) The Islander 01:15, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

 * Ok - everyone, please read WP:C and WP:EL to understand why it's dodgy to add (so many) references to Google Video which the BBC owns explicit copyrights to. Right now, there is no documented evidence to show that we are allowed to link to these and that the copyright on them indicates that. As the onus is upon the person adding the links to ensure that we are in compliance with this, the links must stay out. Before they go back in, please provide justfication plus written evidence to show that we are allowed to host these links. If the edit-warring resumes, the article will be protected from editing. Thanks - A l is o n  ☺ 02:05, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

 * Ok, Sorry if my response was personal, it was aimed at the general population who deemed it necessary to insist on removing relevant information from an article which I and many other people feel strongly for. You're evidence is here: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/6411017.stm

 * "Mr Highfield said the BBC would not be hunting down all BBC-copyrighted clips already uploaded by YouTube members - although it would reserve the right for example to swap poor quality clips with the real thing, or to have content removed that infringed other people's copyright, like sport, or that had been edited or altered in a way that would damage the BBC's brand."

 * Now please stop be pointlessly up tight and just let the links stay. I think you'll find they have been used in the range of 10,000 times since they were first added. When ever they are removed, you can easily see the view count on the videos stops increasing.

 * "Are you here to contribute and make the project good? Or is your goal really to find fault, get your views across, or be the one in control?" (http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/DICK). I'm simply trying to create a valuable resource for the hundreds of people who are searching for this much loved and lost t.v. show that aren't aware it is available on-line. I just feel there are people finding fault just for the sake of it, there has been nothing but excuse after excuse, its tiring having to defend against you all when there really is no need. -- 87.127.129.65 3:58 24th July 2007 (GMT)
 * Unfortunately, the link does not authorise the use of copyright material on GV and YT; on the contrary. It relates to an agreement where a very specific subset of videos will be licensed. Other than that, it shows the Beeb throwing up their collective hands in resignation. None of this, however, gives us permission to link to unauthorised copyvio material. Seriously, and adding the links, while it may be useful to some, is injurious to the encyclopedia. Like anyone else, I'm "here to contribute and make the project good", but as administrator I have to ensure that we stay within the rules and copyright violation is a biggie, even if it links to someone else's violation. And please, assume a little good faith on my part here; I don't appreciate the gratuitous WP:DICK reference. Trust me, I'm not "finding fault for the sake of it" - A l is o n  ☺ 09:37, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Directly from the article: "The BBC's director of Future Media and Technology, Ashley Highfield, said the deal was "not about distributing content like full-length programmes; YouTube is a promotional vehicle for us"." - thus full episodes are not covered. Even if they were, to be included on Wikipedia they'd still need a precise liscence from the BBC allowing them to be on Google - no such thing exists. Anyway, feel free to ignore me, but ignore the admin above at your peril :P The Islander 09:43, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

Setting of the TV series
Before I edited it this article claimed that the TV series was set in Bristol. After looking through the episodes the name of the boy's school is given as Bernard Oliphaunt Middle School. As far as I know both Bristol and Derbyshire, where the novel is set, use the two-tier system of primary (with separate infant and junior schools in some parts) and secondary schools. In the novel the boys find Aquila on a school trip to the Peak District but in the TV series they are staying with their mothers on the land of a Welsh farmer called Evans and his wife. Then again, it might not be set in any real-life town or county with middle schools though it could have been filmed in the Bristol area. Tk420 (talk) 15:39, 13 August 2018 (UTC)

Concord West railway station

Concord West railway station is located on the Main Northern line, serving the Sydney suburb of Concord West. It is served by the Sydney Trains T9 Northern Line services.

History
Concord West station was opened on 1 September 1887 as Concord. In March 1892, a second platform was added when the Main Northern line was duplicated. In June 1909, it was renamed Concord West. In 1911, a third line was laid to the west of the station and a signal box added, with a platform face added by 1940.

During the 2000 Olympics, Concord West was used as an alternate station to access Sydney Olympic Park for services from the Central Coast, with the platforms being extended to enable Intercity trains to make an additional stop. A temporary footbridge and an extra station exit were also provided, but were removed after the Olympics.

Platform 4 is signalled for bi-directional working, and for a time was used as the Sydney stopping point for the now-defunct Great South Pacific Express. It is primarily used by freight trains.

A fourth track was laid to the east of the existing tracks as part of the Northern Sydney Freight Corridor project. As part of these works, Concord West received an Easy Access upgrade and an additional platform. A new overhead concourse with lifts opened on 26 October 2014, replacing the existing concourse. The existing eastern platform was converted to an island platform. The new platform (numbered 1) opened on 9 June 2015 and the existing platforms were renumbered.

Life Against Death

Life Against Death: The Psychoanalytical Meaning of History (1959; second edition 1985) is a book by the American classicist Norman O. Brown, in which the author offers a radical analysis and critique of the work of Sigmund Freud, tries to provide a theoretical rationale for a nonrepressive civilization, explores parallels between psychoanalysis and Martin Luther's theology, and draws on revolutionary themes in western religious thought, especially the body mysticism of Jakob Böhme and William Blake. It was the result of an interest in psychoanalysis that began when the philosopher Herbert Marcuse suggested to Brown that he should read Freud.

The book became famous when Norman Podhoretz recommended it to the critic Lionel Trilling, and over fifty-thousand copies had been sold by 1966. It has been compared to works such as Marcuse's Eros and Civilization (1955) and the philosopher Michel Foucault's Madness and Civilization (1961), and Brown's objectives have been seen as being the same as Foucault's. Though Life Against Death has been called one of the great nonfiction works of the 20th century, some critics have found it of lesser weight than Eros and Civilization, and Brown has been criticized for misinterpreting Freud's theories. It has been suggested that, despite his objectives, Brown's arguments imply that sexual repression is biologically inevitable. Brown later called parts of Life Against Death "quite immature" and wrote of his Love's Body (1966) that it was written to confuse any followers he acquired due to the book and destroy its positions.

Summary
Brown praised The Interpretation of Dreams (1899) as one of the great applications and extensions of the Socratic axiom "know thyself", but criticized Totem and Taboo (1913), writing that in that work Freud correlates psycho-sexual stages of development with stages of history, thereby seeing history as a "process of growing up". Brown saw that view as a "residue of eighteenth-century optimism and rationalism" and considered it inadequate as both history and psychoanalysis. He credited the philosopher Stuart Hampshire with providing an acute comparison between Freud and the philosopher Baruch Spinoza in Spinoza (1951), but wrote that Hampshire fails to recognize important differences between the two, such as Freud's dualism.

Background and publication history
Brown, whose background was in classical studies, became interested in psychoanalysis because of Herbert Marcuse, a philosopher associated with the Institute for Social Research based in Frankfurt. Marcuse had little direct concern with Freud while in Frankfurt, but devoted more attention to psychoanalysis in the 1950s, and in 1953 suggested to Brown that he should read Freud.

Seeking a passage to a "post-Marxist world", Brown began his turn to psychoanalysis partly because he had become disenchanted with politics after the failure of Henry Wallace's 1948 Presidential candidacy. In Life Against Death, Brown wrote that he had begun a careful study of Freud in 1953, because he felt the need to reconsider both human nature and the human race's future prospects. Commenting that he had inherited from Protestantism a conscience which dictated that intellectual work should be directed toward ending or minimizing human suffering, Brown addressed the book to everyone ready to consider new ideas and possibilities. Brown proposed a synthesis of psychoanalysis, anthropology, and history, calling the analyst Géza Róheim's efforts in that direction pioneer work of significance second only to Freud's. Brown also commended Marcuse's Eros and Civilization (1955) as, "the first book, after Wilhelm Reich's ill-fated adventures, to reopen the possibility of the abolition of repression."

According to the historian Paul Robinson, Radicals such as Reich and Róheim represented a minority current of opinion within psychoanalysis, which by the 1940s was viewed as fundamentally conservative by the European and American intellectual community. Critics outside the psychoanalytic movement agreed in seeing Freud as a conservative. The left-wing psychoanalyst Erich Fromm had argued that several aspects of psychoanalytic theory served the interests of political reaction in his The Fear of Freedom (1942), an assessment confirmed by sympathetic writers on the right. The sociologist Philip Rieff, in Freud: The Mind of the Moralist (1959), portrayed Freud as a man who admirably urged men to make the best of an inevitably unhappy fate.

In the 1950s, Marcuse and Brown, along with Trilling in Freud and the Crisis of Our Culture (1955), challenged this interpretation of Freud. They believed that Freud showed that a high price has been paid for civilization, and that Freud's critical element was to be found in his late metahistorical studies, works considered unscientific by orthodox analysts and reactionary by the neo-Freudians. Marcuse and Brown shared a similar general outlook and devoted the most attention to the same Freudian concepts. They saw Freud's greatness in his metahistorical analysis of "the general neurosis of mankind", argued that modern man is sick with the burdens of sexual repression and uncontrolled aggression, attempted to make explicit the hidden critical trend in psychoanalysis that promised a nonrepressive civilization as a solution to the dilemma of modern unhappiness, and accepted the most radical and discouraging of Freud's psychological assumptions: the pervasive role of sexuality and the existence of the death instinct. Brown, unlike Marcuse, had strong mystical inclinations and drew on revolutionary themes in western religious thought, especially the body mysticism of Böhme and Blake.

Life Against Death was first published in the United States by Wesleyan University Press in 1959. In 1959, the book was published in the United Kingdom by Routledge and Kegan Paul. Sphere Books published editions in 1968 and 1970. In 1985, a second edition with an introduction by the historian Christopher Lasch was published.

Brown's assessment of the book
Brown later expressed dissatisfaction with Life Against Death, referring to its chapter on "Language and Eros" as "quite immature." He observed that the book, "records the first revision of my historical identity, from Marx to Marx and Freud", a process which occurred because his first "historical identity", Marxism, had been "wrecked in the frozen landscapes of the Cold War, the defeat of the simplistic hopes for a better world that inspired the Henry Wallace campaign for the Presidency in 1948." Brown, who saw Louis Zukofsky's poetry as anticipating the ideas of both Life Against Death and Love's Body (1966), has called Life Against Death "my first exuberant surge of premature post-Marxist energy", writing that in it he had wagered his "intellectual life on the idea of finding in Freud what was missing in Marx." Brown "found in Freud's analysis of the pathological dimension of human desires the basis for a post-Marxist critique of capitalism." Commenting on his intellectual development, Brown noted that, "My Marxist background had given me a healthy prejudice against moneymaking. Imagine my excitement when I discovered Sandor Ferenczi's article 'The Ontogenesis of the Interest in Money'; with its immortal conclusion, 'After what has been said money is seen to be nothing other than deodorized, dehydrated shit that has been made to shine.'"

That this shift of Brown's interests toward psychoanalysis led to the writing of Love's Body, which concluded that "there is only poetry", showed, according to Brown, that pursuing the implications of Freud's ideas consistently led to the breakdown of "categories of traditional 'rationality' still accepted as authoritative by both Marx and Freud; that massive breakdown...which Nietzsche baptized with the name of Dionysus." Brown wrote that he now realized that he did not really know what he was saying when he called for "Dionysian consciousness" in the last chapter of Life Against Death. Brown added that it was clear to him in that work "that at that deep level which can only be expressed in myth or metaphor, Freud's 'instinct theory' needed to be remythologized in terms of Dionysus, that is to say in terms of instinctual dialectics rather than instinctual dualism. Or, to use another metaphor, in terms of Heraclitus rather than Empedocles." Brown concluded that the last chapter of Life Against Death was disfigured by the misleading idea that the world could be 'a pastoral scene of peace and pleasure, luxe calme et volupté, Baudelaire's utopian image invoked by Marcuse in Eros and Civilization'."

Mainstream media
Life Against Death received a positive review from Susan Sontag in The Supplement to the Columbia Spectator, and was also reviewed by the philosopher Frank Meyer in National Review, and discussed by Loren Baritz in The Nation, the sociologist Edgar Z. Friedenberg in The New York Times Book Review, Ralph Flores in Library Journal, the political scientist Alan Wolfe in The New Republic, Charles Peck in Across the Board, the art critic Roger Kimball in The New Criterion, the critic George Scialabba in Bookforum, and in Time and Yale - Theatre.

Sontag wrote that Life Against Death and Eros and Civilization represented a "new seriousness about Freudian ideas" and exposed most previous writing on Freud in the United States as irrelevant or superficial. She praised Brown for his boldness in discussing fundamental problems "about the hypocrisy of our culture, about art, money, religion, work, about sex and the motives of the body", and considered his work an advance in understanding "the revolutionary implications of sexuality in contemporary society." She credited Brown with showing that Freud's "psychological categories" are "political categories" and that "psychological categories are also bodily categories", with carefully pointing out the limits of Freud's thought, and with providing "an analysis of the whole range of Freudian theory, a theory of instinct and culture, and a set of historical case studies." Though she considered Brown's "commitment to Protestantism as the herald of a culture which has transcended sublimation ... historically dubious", she wrote that by placing his ideas in the framework of Christian eschatology Brown raised issues of great importance and opened the possibility of a "psychoanalytic theory of history which does not simply reduce cultural history to the psychology of individuals", working out an original point of view that was simultaneously historical and psychological, and forcing a reconsideration of the meaning of eschatology. She concluded that, "The highest praise one can give to Brown's book is that, apart from its all-important attempt to penetrate and further the insights of Freud, it is the first major attempt to forumulate an eschatology of immanence in the seventy years since Nietzsche."

Baritz described Life Against Death as a good example of "metahistory". Friedenberg wrote that Michel Foucault's Madness and Civilization (1961) shared a "kinship in mood if not in tone or method" to Life Against Death and its "strident paean to the primal id." Flores credited John O. King with showing that Life Against Death, "in its very recommendation of play (as an article of faith), fits into the ascetic schema it would deny." Peck described Life Against Death as "arguably one of the significant books of the second half of the century." Kimball described the book as a "dense, learned academic tract that blends Freud, Marx, idealist philosophy, and mysticism East and West in a preposterous but intoxicating brew." He wrote that Brown had a gift for "infusing mystic pronouncements with a radical, anti-bourgeois animus and a febrile erotic charge" and that his work was "tremendous hit on American campuses, where the homeless radicalism of irresponsible affluence made all manner of utopian schemes seem attractive." Kimball wrote that Brown's views parallel those of Marcuse, despite the difference of tone between the two thinkers. He dismissed the ideas of both Brown and Marcuse as false and harmful.

Scialabba called the book "rewardingly adventurous".

Time wrote that Life Against Death was "largely ignored by both critics and the public". However, it added that following the publication of Love's Body, some important critics belatedly reviewed Life Against Death and The Observer placed it "on two outstanding-books lists." According to Time, there were more than fifty-thousand copies of Life Against Death in print as of 1966, and the book, like the sociologist David Riesman's The Lonely Crowd (1950) and the fantasy writer J. R. R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings (1954–1955), had become "one of the underground books that undergraduates feel they must read to be with it". Time also described the book as "an undergraduate's delight".

Scientific and academic journals
The book was also discussed by the sociologist Robert Neelly Bellah in Sociological Inquiry, the psychoanalyst Nancy Chodorow in Theory & Society, Alan W. Dyer in the Journal of Economic Issues, Michael Beard in Edebiyat: Journal of Middle Eastern Literatures, Christopher Shultis in Perspectives of New Music, Matthew Day in Method & Theory in the Study of Religion, Basit Kareem Iqbal in Islam & Science, Nigel Dodd in the Journal of Classical Sociology, and R. R. Reno in First Things.

Chodorow credited Brown and Marcuse with providing the most important expression of a view that accepts drive theory and maintains that theories such as Neo-Freudianism and ego psychology undermine "psychoanalytic insight into the drives, repression, and the unconscious." Though she found their views "powerful and at times attractive", she questioned their interpretations of Freud. She argued that their social theories are a "radical individualist" view that sees social relations an unnecessary form of constraint, that they failed to explain how social bonds and political activity are possible, that their theories involve a "problematic view of women, gender relations, and generation", that their use of primary narcissism as a model for union with others "maintains a focus on individual gratification and denies gratification and selfhood to the other", and that they both "conflate the clinical as a source of evidence for theory with the therapeutic as a goal of psychoanalysis", with Brown being less guilty of this than Marcuse. However, she maintained that the work of Marcuse and Brown nevertheless helped suggest "a more consistent and persuasive psychoanalytic social theory and vision of social possibility." Addressing the specific problems of Brown's work, she argued that there are internal contradictions within Life Against Death, as well as contradictions between that work and Love's Body, that Brown's assertion that the infant's desire to avoid separation is a refusal to face death is a metaphorical claim that "brings irrelevant instinctual considerations into a clearly object-related and ego experience", and that despite giving theoretical primacy to drives Brown "can often be read as starting from a theory of relationship, with instincts tacked on." Though she credited Brown with providing a dual account of drives and object relations, she wrote that he "consistently underplays this component of his work" in Life Against Death.

Beard wrote that Life Against Death, with its "apocalyptic companion" Eros and Civilization, "provided one of the most influential blueprints for radical thinking in the decade which followed." Though considering Brown's discussion of "the psychoanalytic dimensions of the Reformation" important, he wrote that "it was never clear how to follow up on them". He suggested that while Brown had influenced many students, he had no true successor, and described the methods Brown used in Life Against Death as unpromising for the study of the Middle East. Shultis and Iqbal both described the book as "famous". Dodd credited Brown with making a distinctive and original contribution to "the sociological and philosophical understanding of money, credit and debt".

Reno described Life Against Death as an "ambitious" and "speculative" work that, along with Love's Body, "gave theoretical expression to the counterculture of the 1960s". He called Brown's "decision to make desire his redemptive principle was a stroke of genius." Though he considered Brown "easy to make fun of", and wrote that Brown's appeals to the "dialectical metaphysics of hope" can sound "hopelessly jejune" and that his "Dionysian ecstasies" were overwrought, he credited Brown with a "mobile metaphysical imagination" that "allowed him to recognize the larger implications of modern, naturalistic conceptions of culture" and drawing the "obvious conclusions in bold, prophetic strokes". Reno wrote that Foucault's "intellectual life was devoted to detailed studies of cultural norms oriented toward the very same goal".

Other evaluations, 1959–1991
The Situationist writer Raoul Vaneigem credited Brown with showing how Eros, understood as essentially narcissistic, can lead to union with beings in the world. The journalist Raymond de Becker dismissed Brown's theories as speculation.

Paul Robinson credited Brown and Marcuse with systematically analyzing psychoanalytic theory in order to reveal its critical implications and of going beyond Reich and Róheim in probing the dialectical subtleties of Freud's thought, thereby reaching conclusions more extreme and utopian than theirs. He found Trilling's work on Freud of lesser value. Robinson saw Brown's exploration of the radical implications of psychoanalysis as in some ways more rigorous and systematic than that of Marcuse. He noted that Life Against Death and Eros and Civilization have often been compared, but found Life Against Death more elegantly written, attributing this to Brown having a background in literature and the classics rather than philosophy and political theory. Yet while admiring the rigor and imagination of Brown's arguments, he believed that his analysis of the genesis of sexual differentiation unwittingly subverts its purpose of showing that a nonrepressive organization of sexual life is possible. Robinson argued that if tyrannical sexual organizations result from inability to accept separation or death, and if this flight from separation is in turn based on the fact of prolonged infantile dependence, then sexual repression is a biological inevitability. Brown thus, despite his objectives, offers "a counsel of despair", since his analysis of sexual repression fails to offer a theoretical rationale for a nonrepressive civilization. Brown was unable to either explain the historical rise of repressive civilization or to provide a solution to the problems of modern living. Robinson believed that while Brown's work is psychologically more radical than that of Marcuse, it is politically more timid, and failed to transform psychoanalytic theory into historical and political categories. He deemed Marcuse a finer theorist who provided a more substantial treatment of Freud. He also found the subtitle of Life Against Death, "the Psychoanalytical Meaning of History", to be "pompous and misleading".

The gay rights activist Dennis Altman, although influenced by Life Against Death, criticized aspects of the book, writing that, "There is a danger in Brown of the realities of the body dissolving into metaphysical flights, so that his concept of polymorphous perversity becomes ultimately an asexual one and he seems to envisage this not as a move to expand sexuality from its obsessive genitality but rather as the total supplanting of that genitality." The social psychologist Liam Hudson described Life Against Death as a "strange, fertile work" that presaged a collapse of the popular "infatuation with hard science". Writing in 1972, Hudson commented that while the book was neglected when first published, it was "now being read by psychologists with close attention". He suggested that the book was neglected by radicals because its publication coincided with that of Eros and Civilization. He found Eros and Civilization more reductively political and therefore less stimulating than Life Against Death. The critic Frederick Crews wrote that Brown's work was "a disservice to the important cause of applied psychoanalysis" and that Brown had become the center of a "cult" among literary humanists that needed to be challenged. He maintained that, despite Trilling's praise of Life Against Death, Brown was an unreliable interpreter of psychoanalysis. Life Against Death influenced singer Jim Morrison.

The psychoanalyst Joel Kovel considered Life Against Death less successful than Eros and Civilization. However, he was influenced by both books, noting that he encountered them at a time when his ambitions as a psychoanalyst and his political hopes were in conflict. Kovel writes that they gave him the hope that psychoanalysis could be turned away from a narrow clinical orthodoxy and toward emancipatory purposes. He saw the main difference between Marcuse and Brown as being that the former remained a historical materialist with a political emphasis, while the latter became an apolitical idealist. He believed that Marcuse and Brown's place in history is uncertain.

The historian Russell Jacoby called Life Against Death one of the boldest efforts to revitalize psychoanalysis, but believed that the work failed to "disturb its theoretical sleep." The psychotherapist Myron Sharaf criticized Brown for misinterpreting Reich, writing that while Brown presents Reich's view as being that the pregenital stages would disappear if full genitality were established, Reich actually believed that society represses both pregenital and genital sexuality, leading to the failure of some persons to reach the genital level and the vulnerability of others to regress to pregenital levels. Reich's view, according to Sharaf, was that given full genital expression, pregenital impulses and conflicts do not disappear but simply lose their significance and their power to disrupt healthy genitality. The critic Edward W. Said wrote that Life Against Death was a vanguard book at the time of its publication. Lasch described the book as "important and valuable". He considered Brown's chapter on Swift the strongest part of the book, calling it "tough, learned, witty, and inventive". He endorsed Brown's criticism of psychoanalytic critics of Swift such as Huxley and Murry, and suggested that Brown's work was in some ways superior to that of Marcuse. He credited Brown with having grasped the importance of Freud's concept of the death instinct. However, he found Brown's proposed solutions to human problems unconvincing, writing that, "We would do better to see our subjection to time as a source of moral insight as well as a limitation." He argued that Brown sometimes confused Eros with Thanatos, or "simply inverts them", and should have identified Freud's "Nirvana principle" with Thanatos rather than Eros.

The philosopher José Guilherme Merquior described Life Against Death and Foucault's Madness and Civilization as similar calls "for the liberation of the Dionysian id." The political scientist Jeffrey B. Abramson credited Brown with providing the only account of preambivalence that highlights "the Freudian concept of identification and its significance as a desire to be at one with another person." However, he criticized Brown for "seeking to achieve a final state of satisfaction that would end the self to be satisfied", a conclusion that he considered "nihilistic" and close to the views of Spinoza. Abramson attempted to follow Brown's reading of Freud, while avoiding Brown's eschatological approach. He grouped Brown's work with Marcuse's Eros and Civilization, Rieff's Freud: The Mind of the Moralist, the philosopher Paul Ricœur's Freud and Philosophy (1965), and the philosopher Jürgen Habermas's Knowledge and Human Interests (1968), arguing that they jointly placed Freud at the center of moral and philosophical inquiry.

The philosopher Roger Scruton criticized Brown, describing his proposals for sexual liberation, like those of Marcuse in Eros and Civilization, as "another expression of the alienation" he condemned and an attempt to "dress up the outlook of the alienated individual in the attributes of virtue." Stephen Frosh found Life Against Death and Eros and Civilization to be among the most important advances towards a psychoanalytic theory of art and culture, although he finds the way these works turn the internal psychological process of repression into a model for social existence as a whole to be disputable. The poet and cultural critic Wayne Koestenbaum criticized Brown for affirming the anus as "a bodily and symbolic zone" while ignoring its connection to sodomy and homosexual desire. Koestenbaum, unlike Brown, believes that to privilege the anus is to "admit the desirability of male homosexual relations."

Other evaluations, 1992–present
The critic Camille Paglia identified Life Against Death as an influence on her work of literary criticism Sexual Personae (1990). She wrote that Brown's work, along with that of the poet Allen Ginsberg and the critics Leslie Fiedler and Harold Bloom, provided her with an alternative to the New Criticism, which she considers insupportable because of its exclusion of history and psychoanalysis. She maintained that in Life Against Death and Love's Body, "the deeply learned and classically trained Brown made an unsurpassed fusion of literature, philosophy, psychoanalysis, history, and politics." She credited Brown's books with making a major impact on American culture in the 1960s, writing that along with Arnold Hauser's The Social History of Art (1951) they helped her to see Foucault as foolish. She lamented, however, that, "my generation was condemned to live out what was only imagined by the older Norman O. Brown", noting that the excesses of the 1960s lead many people to disaster. Paglia also compared Brown's work to that of Marshall McLuhan. She promoted it as an alternative to that of the philosophers Jacques Derrida and Foucault, and the psychoanalyst Jacques Lacan. She wrote that Brown, McLuhan and Fiedler understood the creative imagination and "liberated a whole generation of students to think freely and to discover their own voices." She listed Life Against Death, along with McLuhan's Understanding Media (1964) and Fiedler's Love and Death in the American Novel (1960), as influences on her development, and observed that the book was also an influence on McLuhan. She credited Brown with making daring use of Freudian ideas and described Life Against Death as "one of the great nonfiction works of the 20th century", "what Michel Foucault longed to achieve but never did", and "a tour de force of North American thought." She praised Brown's discussions of Luther and Swift and credited him with showing the connections between "ideas and physiology, projection and body-image". She also argued that Life Against Death was superior to Eros and Civilization.

The critic Diana Trilling, writing in 1993, commented that while Life Against Death was a "central document of the unruly sixties", it was "now little remembered". According to her, Lionel Trilling, though considering Brown's work important, never agreed with Brown's criticisms of traditional moral ideas or advocacy of polymorphous perversity, and their psychoanalyst friends ignored Brown's critique of civilization. The author Richard Webster compared Life Against Death to the psychoanalyst Erik Erikson's Young Man Luther (1958), noting that both works suggested similarities between Lutheran Protestantism and classical psychoanalysis. Though agreeing that there are similarities between the two, he wrote that while Protestants may be comforted by the discovery that the revealed truths perceived by Luther are in harmony with Freud's hypotheses, others may regard such a "congruence of ancient faith and modern reason" with scepticism and "ask to what extent we should regard psychoanalysis not as a scientific approach to human nature but as a disguised continuation of the Judaeo-Christian tradition." Webster described Brown's work, like that of Marcuse, Lacan, and several other modern thinkers, as "a doomed and tragic attempt to reconstruct at the level of the intellect a sensual identity which has been crucified at the level of the spontaneous and vital body."

The historian Arthur Marwick dismissed Life Against Death as, "a curious ragbag of quotations". Norman Podhoretz wrote that the book became famous partly because he recommended it to Trilling, who produced "a favorable review of this central text of the nascent cultural radicalism toward which he was in general antagonistic and which - with Mailer, Brown, and me in mind - he would dryly characterize as 'the Norman invasion.'" The philosopher Todd Dufresne compared Life Against Death to Marcuse's Eros and Civilization and Paul Goodman's Growing Up Absurd (1960) and noted that its sales figures reflected its influence: over fifty-thousand copies had been sold by 1966. Dufresne described the book as idiosyncratic and questionable. He questioned to what extent its readers actually understood the work, suggesting that many student activists might have shared the view of Morris Dickstein, to whom it meant, "not some ontological breakthrough for human nature, but probably just plain fucking, lots of it". The essayist Jay Cantor considered Life Against Death and Eros and Civilization "equally profound".

The historian Dagmar Herzog wrote that Life Against Death was, along with Eros and Civilization, one of the most notable examples of an effort to "use psychoanalytic ideas for culturally subversive and emancipatory purposes".

North Strathfield railway station

North Strathfield railway station is located on the Main Northern line, serving the Sydney suburbs of North Strathfield, North Homebush and Concord West. It is served by Sydney Trains T9 Northern Line services.

History
The Homebush to Hornsby section of the Main North railway line was first opened in 1886, and a connection from the Main North railway line to Strathfield to the east was subsequently added. North Strathfield station was added to the line much later: it opened on 9 June 1918 as an island platform with two faces. In 1924, a third platform was added on the western side. Added to the line much later It is now the first station on the Main Northern line after it branches from the Main Suburban line at Strathfield.

Today, the primary, eastern, connection between the Main Northern and Main Suburban lines is from North Strathfield and Strathfield, but the single track western connection between North Strathfield and Homebush still exists. This connection is mainly used by freight trains but is occasionally used by passenger trains travelling to Olympic Park station during trackwork or for major events at Sydney Olympic Park.

To the east of the station lies a passing loop. This had been taken out of use, but in June 2015 was recommissioned as part of the construction of a dive south of the station as part of the Northern Sydney Freight Corridor project.

As part of the proposed Sydney Metro West project, a further two platforms will be built.

As part of the accesbility projects, the station was upgraded and given lifts in November 2019.

The Terror Timeline

 The Terror Timeline: Year by Year, Day by Day, Minute by Minute: A Comprehensive Chronicle of the Road to 9/11 — and America's Response  is a compilation of over 5,000 reports and articles concerning the September 11, 2001 attacks.

The book was compiled by a Stanford University alumnus and 9/11 researcher Paul Thompson, and by other contributors to the History Commons website (formerly operated by the Center for Cooperative Research).

Influence
The book and its online counterpart were used by the Jersey Girls in their attempts to influence the work of the 9/11 Commission. Kristen Breitweiser has personally endorsed the book, stating, "If you want to know everything about 9/11, you must read this book ... Our intelligence agencies should be recruiting people like Paul Thompson, because he's brilliant". The 9/11 Truth Movement film "9/11: Press for Truth" documents the journey of the Jersey Girls and it uses the book and website as its primary reference.

Thompson's work was cited as a key piece of research in a Complaint and Petition, which seeks a criminal inquiry and/or grand jury investigation into "the many still unsolved crimes of September 11, 2001," that was filed with and accepted by the New York Attorney General's Office.

His work is also cited in the books Bad News by Tom Fenton and Fog Facts by Larry Beinhart. Richard Clarke has put it on his reading list for his course on "Terrorism, Security, and Intelligence" at Harvard University.

Contents

 * 1) "Before 9/11" - the background of Osama bin Laden and the beginnings of al-Qaeda; early assessments by intelligences agencies concerning the possibility of a large scale attack.
 * 2) "The Terrorists" - profiles the al-Qaeda cell in Hamburg, Germany, the mastermind of 9/11, Khalid Shaikh Mohammed, and the other terrorists who were involved with the plot.
 * 3) "Geopolitics and 9/11" - Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, Israel, and Iraq: their relationships with and assessments of al-Qaeda.
 * 4) "The Attacks" - a minute-by-minute account of the day, September 11, 2001.
 * 5) "The post 9/11 World" - America's response in the War on Terror and the investigations into the attacks on 9/11.

The Terror Timeline had contained previously published reports that were subsequently retracted, including allegations against a Saudi man, Mohammed Al Amoudi, that he had funded, supported, or is associated with Osama bin Laden, Al Qaeda, and their terrorist activities. The sources cited in the book also incorrectly said that Al Amoudi was a defendant in a lawsuit filed by families of 9/11 victims. These reports were based on published news reports that were later retracted but cited in first edition runs of the book before later being retracted by the news sources who made the allegations. HarperCollins removed these references in reprints after January 2005. Upon discovery of this, Paul Thompson and the Center for Cooperative Research made a public apology and the information was removed from the organization's website as well as from future editions of the book.

Author - Paul Thompson
Paul Thompson is the author of The Terror Timeline, a compilation of over 5,000 reports and articles concerning the September 11, 2001 attacks. The book was based on research conducted by himself and other contributors to the History Commons website. Thompson's research in the field has garnered over 100 radio interviews, along with TV interviews on Fox News and Air America and interviews in print, such as for Buzz Magazine. Articles about himself, his research and its reception by the 9/11 Truth Movement have appeared in The Village Voice and Esquire Magazine's "Genius Issue". and recognition as "an authority on terrorism", even though, "He never studied, trained", as noted by Esquire. In 2005, Thompson was asked to speak at a congressional briefing on the 9/11 Commission’s final report, he addressed what he defined as failures by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD).

Paul Thompson was born in Pacific Beach, California and currently holds a psychology degree from Stanford University obtained in 1990. He now spends time there and in New Zealand. He is a freelance researcher and has worked in the past as an environmental activist at an environmental-protection firm.

Mr. Thompson has made numerous appearances on Link TV and Free Speech TV. He helps these independent channels raise money.

Auli, India

Auli is in Chamoli district in the Himalayan mountains of Uttarakhand, India. Auli, also known as Auli Bugyal, in Garhwali, which means "meadow", is located at an elevation of 2800 m above sea level. Between June and October, the valley has one of highest numbers of flower species found anywhere in the world, with 520 species of high-altitude plants, 498 of which are flowering plants with significant populations of endangered species.

History
This place came to light when in the 8th century, Adiguru Shri Shankaracharya established a Matha (Jyotir Math or Shri Shankaracharya Math) at Joshimath, about 6.6 km from Auli, which still exists today. After the establishment of the monastery, this place also came to be known as the "Gateway of the Himalayas". After the establishment of this math, Adi Shankaracharya Ji moved forward like Badrinath. Semi-nomadic tribes of Tibetans, Mongolians and Bhotias conducted trade and communication between Tibet (China) and India from here. They took the help of their long haired yaks and horses to cross the snowy mountains of the Himalayas. The popular Trishul peak (23,490 feet) is the scene of an unusual expedition that took place here in 1958. It took the mountaineers almost four days to climb and about 90 minutes to ski down to the base.

Auli and Joshimath are situated in the high Himalayas bordering China. In the Sino-Indian War of 1962, there have been several initiatives by Chinese troops to cross the borders and enter Indian territory. During the conflict, the residents of the border village supported the Indian Army. Auli ropeway was constructed in September 1993 to enhance tourism in Auli. At an altitude of about 10,000 feet, this ropeway serves as a transport between Joshimath and Auli.

Tourism
Auli is a hiking and ski destination and after the creation of the state of Uttarakhand, formerly part of Uttar Pradesh, Auli was marketed as a tourist destination. It is surrounded by coniferous and oak forests, with a panoramic view of the peaks of the Himalayas. The slopes are intended for both professional skiers and novices. The Garhwal Mandal Vikas Nigam Limited (GMVNL) a state government agency which takes care of this resort, and Uttarakhand Tourism Department conduct winter sports competitions at Auli to encourage skiing in India. It has a 4 km cable car, a chairlift and a ski lift, along with a maintained trek route. There is a training facility of Indo-Tibetan Border Police. A small Hindu temple connected with the Hindu epic the Ramayana is also present.

Transportation
The nearest airport is Jolly Grant Airport in Dehradun, about 270 km from Auli. The airport operates daily flights to Delhi, The nearest international airport is Indira Gandhi International Airport in Delhi, about 480 km from Auli. The nearest railway stations are Rishikesh railway station (250 km) and Dehradun railway station (290 km). Nearby attractions include Vishnu Prayag, Gorson Bugyal, Kuari Pass, Joshimath, Badrinath, and Tapovan. Auli and Dehradun hosted the First South Asian Winter Games in 2011.

Climate
Cwb.

Malcolmia maritima

Malcolmia maritima, also known by its common name Virginia stock, is a popular annual garden plant from the family Brassicaceae. A beautiful and profusely flowering annual, it is probably one of the easiest of all plants to grow. Growing to about 6 - 12 in tall, it makes a mass of pink, purple and white fragrant four petalled (cruciform) flowers. It is native in Greece and Albania and may be naturalized elsewhere in Mediterranean Europe where it occurs in maritime sandy habitats and in waste places.

Cultivation
For best results in growing Virginia stock, sow on the surface in patches or rows and thin the young plants to 6 inches apart. It prefers full to partial sun and well drained soils.

Varieties
There is a fair amount of variation in cultivated material, particularly with regard to stature and flower colour (variously violet, purple, lavender, pink).

Udu

The kim-kim or Udu is a plosive aerophone (in this case implosive) and an idiophone of the Igbo of Nigeria. In the Igbo language, ùdù means 'vessel' or 'pot'. This is a hand percussion instrument and it is one of most important instruments in Igbo music.

About
Actually, being a water jug with an additional hole, it was played by Igbo women for ceremonial uses. Legend says that the Udu drum was made accidentally because a punched hole was on the side, making it useless. Instead of throwing it away, the owner started to drum it.

How is it made
Usually, the Udu is made of clay. Sometimes, the ashes of relatives are used to make them too, but it also can be made out of plastic or glass. Today it is widely used by percussionists in different music styles.

How to Play
The instrument is placed in two ways: it is either on the lap or secured with duct tape to a stand before it is played by hand. The player produces a bass sound by quickly hitting the big hole. There are many ways that the pitches can be changed, depending on how the hand above the small upper hole is positioned. Furthermore, the whole corpus can be played by fingers.

Oleh Luzhnyi

Oleh Romanovych Luzhnyi (Олег Романович Лужний; born 5 August 1968) is a Ukrainian former professional footballer who played as a right-back.

Club career
Luzhnyi is a product of the Karpaty sports school (coached by Yuriy Hdanskyi and Yuriy Dyachuk-Stavytskyi) and later studied at the Lviv State School of Physical Culture. He first played for Ukrainian clubs Torpedo Lutsk (1985–88) and SKA Karpaty Lviv (1988) in Soviet lower football leagues.

Dynamo Kyiv

Luzhnyi signed for Dynamo Kyiv in 1989 and became a regular at right-back, winning the domestic double in 1990 and seven consecutive Ukrainian league titles between 1993 and 1999. He was the captain of Dynamo Kyiv's Champions League sides that defeated Barcelona 3–0 at home and 4–0 away in the group stage of the 1997–98 season and eliminated holders Real Madrid 3–1 on aggregate in the quarter finals en route to the semi-finals in 1998–99.

Arsenal
Luzhnyi signed for English club Arsenal in the summer of 1999 after impressing manager Arsène Wenger in Kyiv's clashes with Arsenal in the Champions League. He was signed as cover for Lee Dixon, although he was unable to fully displace the England international. While never a regular starter with the Gunners (the young Cameroonian Lauren was signed a year later as Dixon's long-term replacement), Luzhnyi still played 110 matches in four years at the club, either at right-back or, less frequently, at centre-back, and even captained the team once in the League Cup. In the 2001–02 season, he won a double (the FA Premier League and the FA Cup) with Arsenal. He contributed 18 league appearances, as Arsenal won the 2001-02 FA Premier League. His last match for the Gunners was the 2003 FA Cup Final (which Arsenal won, beating Southampton 1–0), Luzhny's best performance for the club.

Wolverhampton Wanderers
Luzhnyi signed for newly promoted Wolverhampton Wanderers in the summer of 2003. He spent a single season there, but only made ten appearances for the side, and was released by Wolves in the summer of 2004 following their relegation from the Premier League.

International career

On the international stage, Luzhnyi made his debut at the age of 20 for the Soviet Union in 1989, winning eight caps but missing the 1990 World Cup because of injury. After the Soviet Union's dissolution, Luzhnyi went on to play for Ukraine, playing 52 times for his country between 1992 and 2003, although his side never reached a tournament finals, losing three times in the play-offs.

Luzhnyi captained the national side a record 39 times and achieved immense personal recognition in his country. In December 2000 he was voted into the Ukrainian 'Team of the Century' according to a poll by The Ukrainsky Futbol weekly. Luzhnyi received the fourth biggest number of votes, behind only to Oleg Blokhin, Andriy Shevchenko and Anatoliy Demyanenko.

Managerial career
Luzhnyi had a brief spell at Latvian side Venta as player-coach in 2005, but left the club after it ran into financial problems. He has now retired from playing and in June 2006 became assistant coach at Dynamo Kyiv.

Luzhnyi was named interim manager of Dynamo Kyiv on 5 November 2007 after the resignation of Yozhef Sabo. He led the club to three league wins in three matches, including a 2–1 home victory against perennial rivals Shakhtar Donetsk, as well as into the semi-finals of the Ukrainian Cup. However, during the same period Dynamo suffered heavy Champions League defeats away at Manchester United and Sporting Lisbon and at home to Roma.

On 8 December 2007, Dynamo Kyiv unveiled a new permanent manager, Yury Syomin, and a few days later it was announced that Luzhnyi would continue as an assistant coach under the new manager.

On 1 October 2010, he was again named as interim manager of Dynamo Kyiv after the resignation of Valery Gazzaev. The first match was lost 2–0 to Shakhtar Donetsk at Donbas Arena. After the 19th round match against PFC Sevastopol Luzhnyi informed the fans that he will not return after the winter break. He was replaced by Yury Syomin on 24 December 2010.

Luzhnyi turned down the chance to coach in England in 2022 in order to fight for Ukraine after the Russian invasion.

1993 Russian government referendum

A four-part referendum was held in Russia on 25 April 1993. Voters were asked questions on confidence in President Boris Yeltsin, support for the government's socio-economic policies and early elections for both the presidency and parliament. The referendum was initiated by the Congress of People's Deputies, which stipulated that Yeltsin would need to obtain 50% of the electorate rather than 50% of valid votes. The Constitutional Court ruled that the president required only a simple majority on two issues (confidence in him and economic and social policy) but that he would still needed the support of more than half the electorate in order to call new parliamentary and presidential elections.

Three of the four questions – confidence in Yeltsin, support for the government's socio-economic policies, and early elections for the Congress of People's Deputies – were approved by a majority of participating voters, while voters rejected the proposal of holding early presidential elections. The proposal for early elections for the Congress of People's Deputies failed due to the quorum of 50% of all registered voters not being met.

Questions
The four questions were:
 * 1) Do you have confidence in the President of the Russian Federation, Boris N. Yeltsin?
 * 2) Do you support the economic and social policy that has been conducted since 1992 by the President and Government of the Russian Federation?
 * 3) Should there be early elections for the President of the Russian Federation?
 * 4) Should there be early elections for the People's Deputies of the Russian Federation?
