<mask> (born Charles Olden; 21 November 1905 – 8 November 1977) was an English comedian of the 1940s, 1950s and 1960s, on radio and television. His BBC radio show Ray's a Laugh ran for 12 years. Biography
<mask> was born Charles Olden in Wigan, Lancashire, England, to comic singer and mimic Charles Olden (who used the stage-name Charlie Alden) and his wife Margaret Ellen (née Kenyon). His parents moved to Liverpool within days of his birth, and Liverpudlians regard him as a local. He was educated at Anfield council school and Liverpool Collegiate School, and as a youth wished to become a footballer. As a comedian of the 1940s and 1950s, he demonstrated his ad-libbing skills in his weekly radio show Ray's A Laugh from 1949 until 1961. A music hall comedian, <mask> usually played violin badly as part of his act—first as Hugh Neek, then "Nedlo the Gypsy Violinist".He also played comedy roles in several British films—notably as the headmaster in Carry On Teacher. He is best remembered for the BBC Radio show <mask>'s a Laugh, a domestic comedy in which Kitty Bluett played his wife. Other actors and actresses who featured on the show included Peter Sellers, Fred Yule, Patricia Hayes, Kenneth Connor, Pat Coombs and Graham Stark; Sellers' earliest appearances predated The Goon Show by a couple of years. In 1949 and 1950, <mask> was King Rat of the Grand Order of Water Rats. He was the subject of the 3rd episode of This is Your Life in 1955. <mask> was an accomplished golfer, frequently playing with professional sportsmen.

<mask>'s alter ego, Nedlo, the Gypsy Violinist, started his own variety show in 1949 and made a success of it. <mask>'s a Laugh did not include Nedlo's name in the credits, however, nor indeed that of Charlie Olden (<mask>'s real name).Nedlo/Olden was, by 1949, calling himself <mask> (after the golfer); this was how he billed himself for his radio series. <mask>'s a Laugh was a domestic comedy, with <mask>'s wife played by Kitty Bluett. Fred Yule played his brother-in-law. Patricia Hayes also appeared, as did Kenneth Connor as Sidney Mincing. In later series <mask> had left the Cannon Enquiry Agency and joined the Daily Bugle as a reporter. Jack Watson and Charles Leno joined the cast and new characters included Mrs Dipper and Roger Curfew, the paying guest with songs by John Hanson and the King's Men. Another early member was Peter Sellers, then 23 and billing himself as an impressionist.He appeared as Soppy, a small boy criticised by the nation's watchdogs for his catchphrase, "Just like your big red conk!" Another of his characters was a strange woman, Crystal Jollibottom ("Stop it you saucebox!" he would cry in a crazy falsetto). Laidman Browne, as <mask>'s boss Mr Trumble, Pat Coombs as Ursula Prune, Charles Leno and Graham Stark were also present. Percy Edwards, the animal impersonator, played Gregory the chicken.

 would do anything, but "Not until after six-o'clock!" Songs came from the Beaux and the Belles, and Bob and Alf Pearson provided the musical interlude – "We bring you melodies from out of the sky, my brother and I!"Bob also played the little girl, Jennifer who, asked her name, would coyly reply: "Jen-ni-fer!" The show was no real departure from tradition, even in its catch-phrases. There was Ivy's (<mask>) devotion to Mrs Hoskins, for instance: "You're a lovely woman, Mrs Hoskins!" And it was she to whom Mrs Hoskins would remark weakly: "It was agony, Ivy!" Whenever Ivy felt poorly, Mrs Hoskins would say, "I'll have to send for young Dr Hardcastle", to which Ivy would reply, "He's lovely, Mrs Hoskins, He's loooooovely!" This role was also played by Bob Pearson. In addition, there was the adenoidal "If you haven't been to Manchester, you haven't lived" from Tommy Trotter (Graham Stark).<mask>'s a Laugh ran from 1949 until January 1961, eventually dropping the musical items. <mask> also showed his skill at ad-libbing (together with Jimmy Edwards, Arthur Askey and Cyril Fletcher) in Does the Team Think? The <mask> Show (1955–59)
The first series accented variety, with international guests; the second and third series had greater emphasis on stand-up comedy; the fourth featured domestic routines (with Kitty Bluett as <mask>'s wife and Kenneth Connor as "that interfering brother-in-law"); the fifth and six—with new writers—concentrated on sketch comedy and were branded 'New Edition' and '1959 Edition' to underline the

<mask> (2 December 1915 – 3 February 2008) was a wrestler, resistance worker, soldier, airman, film star, film maker, and co-founder of the International Medical Corps. He was a recipient of the French Croix de Guerre and the American Eisenhower medal. Early life
<mask> was born in Waleska, Georgia, where his mother had been caught in a snow storm and died when he was six. His family was of old Virginian stock, whose family tree included Thomas Jefferson and James Madison. Having been orphaned at an early age, <mask> and his younger brother and two sisters grew up in Greenville, South Carolina, in the care of their aunt. Here he attended Greenville high school for three years where he learned to wrestle and play American football. Aged 15, Fawcett became involved in an affair with his best friend's mother.He remarked, "If that's child molestation, I would wish this curse on every young boy." The end of the affair made Fawcett contemplate suicide, and he left the United States to travel to the far East, working his passage on a number of steamships. By 1937 he had returned to America and stayed for a time in New York City before making his way to Washington D. C., where he was taken in by his cousin, who happened to be an assistant United States Postmaster General. Here he ended up wrestling to make a living. Then in 1937 he boarded a ship outside Montreal bound for France, where he worked as an artist’s model and again as a wrestler. World War II

"I went to see him and he wasn’t very interested until I told him I’d been a professional wrestler. He said, ‘Maybe we could use you to sort of keep order. Anybody who’s not supposed to be there, you can get rid of them’," <mask> recalled in an interview with Dr Stephen D Smith in 1998. "Fry was perhaps one of the most idealistic men I had ever known and certainly the most unassuming. We got rid in a hurry of his little bow-tie and striped suit. Out of place completely in Marseilles.Maybe one of the reasons he got away with a lot was because he looked so innocent." Towards the end of the war, Fawcett posed as the husband of six Jewish women in three months. This enabled the women, who had formerly been imprisoned in Nazi concentration camps, to leave France with an American visa. Eventually, he had to flee France at several hours’ notice after a tip-off that the Gestapo was coming to arrest him. Having left France, he flew in the RAF and later fought with the French Foreign Legion. Post-war
After the war, he pursued a cinematic career, in which he performed in over 100 films, working with such stars as Errol Flynn, Alan Ladd and Robert Taylor. He combined this with smuggling refugees to safety from civil conflict, organizing earthquake relief teams, fighting in several wars and co-founding the International Medical Corps.<mask>'s

title: Dagobert of Pisa

texts:
<mask> (or Daibert or Daimbert) (died 1105) was the first Archbishop of Pisa and the second Latin Patriarch of Jerusalem after the city was captured in the First Crusade. Early life

Little is known of <mask>'s early life, but he is thought to have originally been ordained by Wezilo, Archbishop of Mainz 1084-88, a leading supporter of the emperor in the Investiture Controversy and of the Antipope Clement III. In 1085, Wezilo was excommunicated for simony by the pro-papal synod of Quedlinburg. <mask>'s own name places his origin in Lombardy/Emilia, site of some staunchly imperial cities. (Arch)bishop of Pisa

By the late 1080s Dagobert had changed sides, becoming close to Countess Matilda of Tuscany, one of the papacy's staunchest supporters. Pope Urban II cancelled Dagobert's irregular ordination and replaced it with a canonical one, and in 1088 made him Bishop of Pisa. Initially, the appointment of a man with such a controversial past attracted hostility.Peter, Bishop of Pistoia, protested to the pope, and the cathedral chapter opposed it, but Urban's continued support allowed Dagobert to establish his authority. He played an active role in Pisa's civic life, for example joining with other notables in 1090 to regulate the maximum height of houses, and by 1092 the clergy were signing his documents. He seems to have become a well-respected figure in Pisa's political and economic life, adopting a practical approach to the problems he faced both in Pisa and later in his career. He remained close to Urban and Matilda, and in 1092 Urban raised the see to an archbishopric on Matilda's recommendation. Dagobert spent Christmas of 1094 with Pope Urban, and then accompanied him on his pastoral tour of Italy

 and France, including the Council of Piacenza, held to reassert the pope's authority after the Investiture Controversy, and the Council of Clermont, at which the pope launched the First Crusade. Dagobert then returned to Pisa to preach the crusade, and received enthusiastic support. In 1098 Urban appointed him legate at the court of King Alfonso VI of Castile, and he proved competent in his organisation of the church in the lands recently conquered from the Moors, although he was rumoured to have kept for himself some treasure sent by King Alfonso to the Pope.Latin Patriarch of Jerusalem

Before the end of 1098 <mask> set out for the east with a lawless Pisan fleet, which made successful raids on Byzantine owned islands and skirmished with the Byzantine navy, before going on to Syria. One of the Crusader leaders, Bohemond of Antioch, was besieging the Byzantine port of Latakia, and <mask> and the Pisans agreed to help by blockading the port from the sea. However, the other Crusader leaders, who saw the necessity for cooperation with the Byzantine Emperor and eastern Christians, were horrified and persuaded <mask> to call off the blockade. Bohemund was forced to abandon the siege, and accompanied <mask> to Jerusalem, arriving on 21 December 1099. <mask>'s status when he went east is unclear. Many historians believe that Urban had appointed him apostolic legate to the crusade in succession to Adhemar of Le Puy, who died on 1 August 1098. However, Urban himself died on 29 July 1099, and in a letter to the new pope, Paschal II, in September 1099, Dagobert styles himself simply 'archbishop of Pisa'.Immediately after Christmas, the Latin Patriarch of Jerusalem, Arnulf of Chocques, was deposed on the

Public opinion had always held that the Holy Land should be the patrimony of the church, but Arnulf had been too weak to establish supremacy. <mask>'s position was stronger, as he was (probably) papal legate and had the support of the Pisan fleet. Immediately after his enthronement, Godfrey of Bouillon knelt before him and was invested with the territory of Jerusalem, and Bohemund did the same for Antioch. Baldwin, the future King of Jerusalem, was at this time Lord of Edessa, but he did not pay homage for it to <mask>, and their relations do not seem to have been good. Dagobert was anxious to establish the patriarch's power, and he demanded that Godfrey hand over Jerusalem to him. Godfrey partly yielded, and at a ceremony on Easter Day, 1 April 1100, he announced that he would retain possession until his death, or until he conquered two great cities from the infidel, but he bequeathed Jerusalem to the Patriarch.However, Godfrey died in July, when <mask> was accompanying a campaign against Jaffa under Bohemund's nephew, Tancred, Prince of Galilee, and the Jerusalem knights offered the lordship to Baldwin, who was Godfrey's brother. With the support of Tancred, <mask> wrote offering the lordship of Jerusalem to Bohemund, but the letter was intercepted and Bohemund was captured by the Turks. On 11 November, Baldwin assumed the title King of Jerusalem. <mask> was forced to accept defeat, and Baldwin, bearing in mind his influence over the Pisan fleet, confirmed him in his see. On Christmas Day 1100, Baldwin paid homage to the Patriarch and was crowned as king. The arrival of a Genoese squadron

He needed to control the church, as he was always short of money, and pious symphasisers gave their donations to the church.Complaints had been made about the legality of <mask>'s appointment, and when the pope sent a legate, Maurice, Cardinal-Bishop of Porto, to enquire into the situation, Baldwin accused Dagobert of treachery for urging Bohemond to oppose Baldwin's succession. Dagobert bribed Baldwin to drop the complaint. However, in the autumn Dagobert kept the whole of a donation partly intended for the king for his army, and for this the legate deprived him of his position. Tancred, who now ruled Antioch, welcomed Dagobert to the city, where he put the Church of St George at his disposal. Maurice died in the spring of 1102, and when Baldwin needed Tancred's military help in the autumn, Tancred insisted on <mask>'s restoration as a condition of his assistance. Baldwin agreed, but then a new legate arrived, Cardinal Robert of Paris. Baldwin and Arnulf of Chocques, whom Dagobert had replaced as Patriarch, engineered further charges before a synod under Robert.He was charged with attacking fellow-Christians in his raids on Byzantine islands on his journey to the east, of conspiring to provoke a civil war between Bohemond and Baldwin, and keeping for himself money given for the welfare of pilgrims, and deposed as Patriarch. Tancred again welcomed him to Antioch but did not further press his claim. In Steven Runciman's view, he had shown himself a corrupt and miserly old man, and his departure was not regretted. <mask> later went to appeal to Pope Paschal personally. The appeal was

 successful, and <mask> was on his way back to reclaim the patriarchate when he died in Messina in Sicily in 1105. <mask> was replaced during his absence by a priest called Ehremar, and Ghibbelin of Arles succeeded on <mask>'s death. He was succeeded as Archbishop of Pisa by Pietro Moriconi, who may have been elected by the Pisans before <mask>'s death, suggesting that he might have lost support after his long - and pluralistic - absence, but charters in the cathedral archives show that his actions during his tenure were later repeatedly cited and confirmed.Reputation

Historians have generally been highly critical of <mask>'s conduct in the Holy Land. Steven Runciman in his history of the First Crusade, describes him as vigorous, but vain, ambitious, dishonest and easily influenced. In a 1998 study Michael Matzke defended <mask>, arguing that his actions as patriarch were motivated by religious idealism, and that he was trying to carry out the intentions of Pope Urban. Historians have strongly disagreed whether this rehabilitation is convincing. Patricia Skinner, in her survey of <mask>'s career, accepts that he acted against canon law, but argues that in the exceptional circumstances of the time, he had to act pragmatically. The name of the Holy Sepulchre church in Pisa is a reference to Dagobert's participation to the Crusade. References

<mask> (10 December 1860 – 3 May 1944) was an American physicist notable for measurement of high electrolytic resistances and conductivity of very dilute solutions. <mask> was the first woman to be awarded a Bachelors of Science (B.S.) degree from MIT, where she had to enrol as a "special" student, because the institution did not accept female students. <mask> was also the first woman to be awarded a PhD in Physics from the University of Göttingen in 1895. Maltby was also a great advocate for physics, teaching physics courses specially tailored for non-physicists. She taught concepts such as the physics of music, in an attempt to show people that physics is exciting and open to everybody. During her 31 years career as Chair of the Physics department at Barnard College, Maltby focused heavily on her students' professional advancement.<mask> was also Chair of the American Association of University Women (AAUW) Committee on Fellowships and she used her position to actively support women in engaging with physics and open doors to formal education paths. Early life

Maltby was born on the family farm in Bristolville, Ohio on December 10, 1860 to <mask> and Lydia Jane Brockway. She had two older sisters: Betsy (<mask>) Mayhew and Martha Jane <mask>. As an adult, <mask> recalled that she was interested in science as a young age—often questioning how nature worked—and that her parents encouraged her. They taught her how to use basic machinery, and her father especially supported her interest in mathematics. After Edmund's death, the Maltby family moved to Oberlin, Ohio for educational opportunities. During her years at Oberlin College, Maltby also explored her interest in music.Music became a lifelong passion of hers, from enjoying classical music on the radio at her home to

After she received her doctorate she worked at the newly founded Institut für Physikalische Chemie at Göttingen under Walther Hermann Nernst. Invited back to Germany in 1898 to work at the Physikalisch-Technische Reichsanstalt in Charlottenburg, Maltby was research assistant to the President, Friedrich Kohlrausch, and helped set the research methodology in the field of conductivity. After returning to the United States, Maltby studied mathematical physics with Arthur Webster at Clark University from 1899 to 1900. Career

texts: significant research occurred before she began teaching at Barnard College, a women's college founded in 1889, where her involvement in administration left her little time for research. Maltby was a mentor to her students, vigorously extending efforts to support their professional advancement. During her 31 years of teaching at Barnard, and the nearly 20 years that she was chair of the physics department, Maltby took a great interest in her students' learning, even introducing physics courses for non-physicists, including probably the first course in the physics of music.There are many examples of her efforts to support the professional advancement of female physicists. As chair of the American Association of University Women (AAUW) Committee on Fellowships, Maltby administered funds that supported women actively engaged in physics research during the early part of their careers. Since women were not eligible for many research fellowships because of their gender, the AAUW Fellowships were critical for maintaining a cadre of women physicists. Maltby's enormous effort contributed to the Fellowships' preservation. Despite Barnard College's Dean's Rule that stated,  "the College cannot afford to have women on the staff to whom the college work is secondary; the College is not willing to stamp with approval a woman to whom self-elected home duties can be secondary," Maltby supported women's efforts to do both. As chair of the Physics Department, she vigorously opposed the forced resignation of Harriet Brooks when she planned to marry. Physicist and History of Science interviewer Katherine Sopka wrote that her students greatly admired her.One wrote her that, "Professor <mask> was my mentor--a gracious lady--a friend and a counselor. Her most memorable advice to me was not to forego

He was born in June 1897, six months after <mask>'s sudden resignation at the end of the Fall 1896 term "in consequence of an accident" from her post as Associate Professor of Physics at Wellesley College. Maltby reappeared to resume her teaching career as an instructor at Lake Erie College in September 1897. She returned to a research position in Germany in 1898, leaving her son in the care of a friend with a well fitted-out nursery. Upon her return to the United States in 1901, she was reunited with her son. She took up her post at Barnard College that same year. She spent the rest of her life in the Columbia University Morningside Heights community except for a year's sabbatical at the Cavendish Laboratory, Cambridge University, in 1910, a short-lived attempt to relocate to California for her retirement, and frequent and extensive traveling and touring.Death

<mask>  (29 March 193624 December 2012) was an English composer of film, TV and concert music, and also a jazz pianist and occasional vocalist. He was based in New York City from 1979 until his death there in 2012. Life and career
<mask> was born at Broadstairs, Kent, but was raised in Devon during World War II. His mother, Joan Esther, née Spink (1901–1983) was a pianist who had trained with Gustav Holst and sang in the first professional performance of The Planets. His father, <mask> (1890–1948), was a children's book author, poet and lyricist, who worked with Roger Quilter on his theatre works and provided new words for some of the numbers in the Arnold Book of Old Songs. <mask> was a pupil at Leighton Park School. He later studied at the Royal Academy of Music with Howard Ferguson, Lennox Berkeley and Cornelius Cardew.Ferguson regarded him as extraordinarily brilliant, having perhaps the greatest talent of any British composer in his generation, though lacking in a personal style. During this time, <mask> attended some of the Darmstadt summer courses in 1955, where he was exposed to serialism. He later spent two years in Paris as a student of the prominent serialist Pierre Boulez between 1957 and 1959. He always used both his first names after finding another <mask> active in music. <mask> taught at the Royal Academy of Music between 1963 and 1965, at the Peabody Institute in Baltimore, United States from 1970 to 1971, and was later International Chair of Composition at the Royal Academy of Music between 1994 and the year 2000. He was appointed a Commander of the Order of the British Empire (CBE) in 1977, and was knighted in 1998. <mask> produced over 200 works for the concert hall, and 50 scores for film and television.He was

 also a writer and performer of jazz songs for 50 years. Immersed in the techniques of the European avant-garde via his contact with Boulez, <mask> subsequently developed his own dramato-abstract style. In his later years, he adopted an increasingly tonal idiom. <mask> regularly performed as a jazz pianist, with such singers as Cleo Laine, Marion Montgomery (until her death in 2002), Mary Cleere Haran (until her death in 2011), and more recently with Claire Martin, performing the Great American Songbook. <mask> and Martin performed at such venues as The Oak Room at the Algonquin Hotel in New York, and The Pheasantry and Ronnie Scott's Jazz Club in London. In later years, in addition to his musical activities, <mask> became known as an artist working in the medium of collage. He exhibited these collages several times in England, including at the Holt Festival, Norfolk in 2011, and at the Swaledale Festival, Yorkshire, in 2012.The first exhibition of his collages was in London in 2010, at the South Kensington and Chelsea Mental Health Centre, curated by the Nightingale Project, a charity that takes music and art into hospitals. <mask> was a patron of this charity. <mask> is honoured with four photographic portraits in the collection of the National Portrait Gallery, London. <mask> was homosexual and in 1995 Gay Times nominated him as one of the most influential homosexuals in music. Anthony Meredith's biography of <mask> was published in November 2010. <mask> is survived by his sister Meg (born 1930), the poet M. R. Peacocke, with whom he collaborated on a number of vocal works. <mask>'s cremated remains are buried in Section 112, Plot 45456 at Green-wood Cemetery, Brooklyn.His grave is marked by a grey granite headstone.

 his early studies in modernist techniques, <mask>'s tastes were eclectic. He wrote in a wide range of styles, including jazz, for which he had a particular fondness. Early on, he began to write music for feature films. He said that it was as if the different styles of music that he was writing went on 'in different rooms, albeit in the same house'. Later in his career the different aspects all became equally celebrated – for example in his 75th birthday year (2011), there were numerous concerts featuring all the different strands of his work. At the BBC Proms for example his Murder on the Orient Express Suite was performed in a concert of film music, and in the same season his Dream Dancing and Jazz Calendar were also featured.Also at the Wigmore Hall, London, on 23 March 2011 (a few days before his 75th birthday), a double concert took place in which his Debussy-inspired piece Sonata After Syrinx was performed in the first concert, and in the Late Night Jazz Event which followed, <mask> and Claire Martin performed his arrangements of the Great American Songbook (Cole Porter, George Gershwin, Rodgers and Hart and so on). See also Tom Service's appreciation of <mask>'s music published in The Guardian in July 2012. Film and television scores
He wrote music for films and television; among his scores were the Doctor Who story The Aztecs (1964) for television, and the feature films Billion Dollar Brain (1967), Lady Caroline Lamb (1972) and Equus (1977). His scores for Far from the Madding Crowd (1967), Nicholas and Alexandra (1971), and Murder on the Orient Express (1974), each earned him Academy Award nominations, with Murder on the Orient Express gaining a BAFTA award. Later works include Enchanted April (1992), Four Weddings and a

<mask> (born 25 March 1991) is an English professional footballer who plays as a left back or left-sided midfielder for Championship club Millwall. <mask> came through Wolverhampton Wanderers' academy to turn professional in 2009. Although he never played a first team match for the club, he had a series of loan moves while a Wolves player, culminating in a move to Bournemouth that became a permanent transfer in January 2012. <mask> signed for Millwall in May 2012. Club career

Wolves
Born in Rowley Regis, England, <mask> is a product of Wolves' academy, having joined the club at the age of nine, and signed a professional contract – running until Summer 2010 – with the club in February 2009, aged 18. He immediately departed for a spell on loan at Hungarian club Újpest, a partner club of Wolves, and made his Újpest debut, in a 2–0 win over Siófok on 7 March 2009. <mask> then scored his first Újpest goal on 24 April 2009, in a 3–0 win over Budapest Honvéd.<mask> went on to make eight appearances, scoring once, and helped them qualify for the newly formed UEFA Europa League. During this season, he also won Wolves' Academy Player of the Season Award. <mask> joined League One club Southend United on loan on 24 November 2009. <mask> made his Southend United debut on the same day, where he made his first start, in a 2–0 loss against Tranmere Rovers. Then on 12 December 2009, <mask> provided an assist for Francis Laurent to score the first goal of the game against Hartlepool United as they went on to win 3–2. <mask> established himself in the first team, playing in the left–back position. After extending his loan spell for another month, it was subsequently later extended until the end of the 2009–10 season.Despite suffering an injury, <mask> made 17 appearances in total for the Shrimpers during a campaign

 that ended in relegation. After his loan spell at Southend United came to an end, <mask> signed a one–year contract extension with the club. On 22 October 2010, <mask> went out on loan again, joining League Two club Burton Albion on a one–month deal. <mask> made his Burton Albion debut, the next day, playing 90 minutes, in a 3–0 win over Bradford City. During the match, <mask> made an impressive display, helping the club keep a clean sheet and almost scored, earning him a Man of the Match Award. Having made 11 appearance so far, <mask>'s loan spell with the club was extended until the end of the season. Despite suffering from injuries, <mask> scored his first goal in English football on 30 April 2011 in a 1–1 draw against former club Southend United and went on to make 22 appearances.<mask> was linked with a return to Burton Albion on loan ahead of the 2011–12 season, but this was ruled out by Manager Paul Peschisolido and <mask>, himself. Although <mask> signed a new contract, Wolves put a price tag on <mask> of about £150K. AFC Bournemouth

On 18 July 2011, <mask> joined League One side AFC Bournemouth on an initial six-month loan deal. He made his Bournemouth debut, in the opening game of the season, in a 3–0 loss against Charlton Athletic. <mask> then scored three goals in three games between 29 October 2011 and 12 November 2011 against Preston North End, Scunthorpe United and Gillingham in the first round of FA Cup. After losing his place in the left–back position to Warren Cummings, <mask> was moved into an unfamiliar left–midfield role by manager Lee Bradbury. After becoming a regular player for the Cherries, a permanent transfer was agreed on 23 December 2011, and, upon the re-opening of the transfer in January 2012, <mask> formally signed a three-and-a half-year contract for an

Millwall

On 30 May 2012, <mask> joined Millwall in a move that included former Cherries player Josh McQuoid returning to Bournemouth as part of a swap deal. But <mask> left Bournemouth on a bad note when he made a comment that made a "section of Bournemouth supporters" upset. Upon joining the club, <mask> was given a number 28 shirt ahead of the 2011–12 season.<mask> made his Millwall debut for the club, in the first round of League Cup, against Crawley Town and played the whole 120 minutes of the match, including extra time, but Millwall were eliminated after losing 5–2 in a penalty shoot–out. <mask> made his league debut, in the opening game of the season, in a 2–0 loss against Blackpool and scored in the next game, in a 2–1 win over Peterborough United three days later on 21 August 2012. Howevever, <mask> struggled to establish himself in the first team, as he spent most of the season on the substitute bench, as well as, his own injury concern. <mask> finished his first season at Millwall, making 16 appearance and scoring once in all competitions. In the 2013–14 season, <mask> continued to be in the sidelined at the start of the season and made his first appearance of the season, playing as a left–back, in a 3–1 win over Blackpool on 17 September 2013.

<mask> (; 5 April 1929 – 19 March 2008) was a leading Belgian author who published under his own name as well as various pseudonyms. <mask>' literary contributions spanned the genres of drama, the novel, and poetry; he also left a legacy as a painter and film director. He wrote primarily in Dutch, although he also wrote some poetry in English. He won the 2000 International Nonino Prize in Italy. His death by euthanasia, which is legal in Belgium, led to considerable controversy. Life
<mask> was born on 5 April 1929 at Sint-Janshospitaal in Bruges, Belgium. He was the eldest of four sons born to <mask> and Germaine Vanderlinden.Jozef worked as a printer but was also fond of theatre. <mask> was educated at a boarding school led by nuns in Aalbeke and experienced the German occupation of Belgium during World War II. The experience was formative, and would later be adapted by <mask> into his semi-autobiographical The Sorrow of Belgium (1983). Many of <mask>' teachers were Flemish nationalists who were sympathetic to fascism, and <mask> joined the pro-German youth wing of the Flemish National Union. His father was also briefly detained after the Liberation for collaborationism. A sympathizer of the political left at a more mature period in his life, <mask> lauded the socialist model after a visit to Cuba in the 1960s. <mask>' prominence in literary circles and his debut as a novelist came in 1950, with the publication of his De Metsiers at age twenty-one.His first published poems had in fact been printed by his father as early as 1947. He lived in Paris from 1950 until 1952, where he met many of the members of the CoBrA art movement. From February 1953 until the beginning of 1955, <mask> lived in Italy where his girlfriend  (born in 1928) acted

 in a few films. They were married on 26 May 1955, and had a son, Thomas, on 7 October 1963. In the early 1970s, he had an affair with actress Sylvia Kristel, who was 23 years younger, with whom he had a son, Arthur, in 1975. They lived in the Raamgracht 5–7 building in Amsterdam. The relationship ended in 1977, when she left him for actor Ian McShane.He was a "contrarian", of "anarchist spirit". Journalist Guy Duplat recalls that <mask> had organized in Knokke the election of a "Miss Knokke Festival", which was a typical beauty contest, except for the <mask> ruling that the members of the all-male jury would have to be naked. Literary career

<mask> was considered to be one of the most important contemporary Belgian authors. <mask> published the novel Schola Nostra (1971) under the pseudonym Dorothea Van Male. He also used the pseudonyms Jan Hyoens and Thea Streiner. The 1962 De verwondering (The Astonishment) and the 1983 Het verdriet van België (The Sorrow of Belgium) rank among <mask>' most significant works as a novelist. Lee views Het verdriet van België as a postmodern critique of national identity.Most prolific in literary endeavors as a dramatist, <mask> wrote 35 original pieces and 31 translations from English, Greek, Latin, French and Spanish plays and novels. His dramatic sketch Masscheroen was first staged at Knokke Casino and featured an all-nude cast: three naked men were given the task of portraying the Christian Holy Trinity of God the father, God the son, and the Holy Spirit; the work also made light of the Holy Virgin, a Belgian saint, and the Three Wise Men. Attacked as blasphemous and deleterious to the public's moral well-being, the light-hearted play's performance triggered a notable legal case in which <mask> was

The prison term was reduced to a suspended sentence after a public outcry. <mask> also wrote the script of a satirical comic strip, "De Avonturen van Belgman" ("The Adventures of Belgian Man") in 1967, which spoofed the Belgian bi-lingual troubles. The strip itself was drawn by artist <mask> (<mask> Kempeneer). <mask>' name had been put forward many times for the Nobel Prize in literature, on which he would casually comment "this prize money would suit me fine".Painting and film
As a painter, <mask> was a participant in the CoBrA art movement from 1950. He had developed friendships with some of its members, and illustrated a book by Pierre Alechinsky in 1949. He collaborated with key figures in the movement including Karel Appel and Corneille and participated in some exhibitions. He later used his experiences of this time in his book Een zachte vernieling (Mild Destruction). <mask> directed seven films between 1964 and 2001. His film Het sacrament was screened in the Un Certain Regard section at the 1990 Cannes Film Festival. Death
<mask> suffered from Alzheimer's disease and requested his life to be terminated through euthanasia, a legal procedure in Belgium, at the Middelheim Hospital in Antwerp on 19 March 2008.Bert Anciaux, then Flemish Minister of Culture, stated "I knew him well enough to know that he wanted to depart with pride and dignity." Former Belgian Prime Minister Guy Verhofstadt said that he imagined the onset of Alzheimer's must have been "inevitable and unbearable torture".

In writing about his fiction, reviewers often note his lyrical use of language and his playful use of form to write about African-American life. His poems tend to focus on music, mythology, history, film, and other sources, rather than narrative or autobiographical experiences. Early life
<mask> was born in 1962 in Chicago, and raised on the South Side of Chicago, a neighborhood that he says informs the setting of his first novel Rails Under My Back and the stories in his collection Holding Pattern. For <mask>, the 1980s in Chicago and other black communities across America represented an "apocalyptic moment" with the introduction of crack cocaine and the violence and other forms of destruction and devastation it brought, experiences that he feels have been underrepresented in literary fiction.

Poetry and Aeroplanes
After finding both a publishing deal with Windswept Pacific and a record contract with Universal Records in the United States, the Faroe Islands awarded him its 2004 "Businessman of the Year" award.His first major album, Poetry & Aeroplanes, released in 2003, was recorded in Los Angeles and Spain and featured a number of prominent studio musicians such as Pino Palladino, Matt Chamberlain and the production of Rupert Hine. Within months of its debut, the record found a following among many of popular music's inner circle. Extensive touring in the US and Canada and rave reviews and industry/musician buzz led to opening slots on tours with Suzanne Vega, Glen Phillips, Rufus Wainwright, Aimee Mann, and John Mayer. John Mayer later described the album in his Esquire magazine article: "it may be one of the best albums to come around in the last five years...Music like this is jet fuel on the fire of a broken heart.

 Arrhythmia Suppression Trial (CAST) that found arrhythmia suppression by drugs to be an invalid biomarker for the prediction of drug therapy that prevents sudden death. Dr. <mask>'s research at Georgetown contributed substantially to the recognition that non-cardiovascular drugs, such as antihistamines (e.g., terfenadine (Seldane)), may have arrhythmogenic effects. Dr. <mask>'s invention, fexofenadine (Allegra), resulted from this research and is today marketed  as a safer non-sedating antihistamine replacing Seldane.His research on drug safety led Dr. <mask> to champion the development of the Centers for Education and Research on Therapeutics (CERTs), until 2016, a network of federally funded centers designed to improve outcomes in medical therapeutics. In 2002, Dr. <mask>'s research discovered the primary mechanism of methadone-induced sudden death. His subsequent research on methadone resulted in the addition of warnings to the official label. He is an authority on drugs, like methadone, that prolong the QT interval on the electrocardiogram and cause a particular potentially lethal cardiac arrhythmia, torsade de pointes. As President of AZCERT, he leads a team of scientists that maintains web-based lists of the drugs that have this potential toxicity; this website, with over 1,100 visits daily and over 66,000 registered users, is an internationally recognized resource cited in textbooks and used by researchers to evaluate the impact of drug safety programs.

texts: <mask><mask> (April 29, 1922 – March 11, 1985) was the chairman of the county commission in Cobb County, Georgia from 1965 to 1984. <mask> was also a former trustee of Kennesaw State University. One of Cobb's greatest political leaders, <mask>, was chair of the county commission for five consecutive terms from 1965 to 1984 and played a central role in making Cobb one of the nation's most desirable places to live. His administration illustrates the positive impact a county government can have in facilitating social change. Indeed, Cobb's phenomenal growth in those years stemmed directly from <mask>'s ability to gain support for roads, parks, libraries, schools, water lines and sewers — essential ingredients in generating a high quality of life. A Cobb County native, <mask> was born April 29, 1922, on his grandfather's farm on Chastain Road. At age 20, he married Jackie Knight of Marietta.After serving in the army in World War II, <mask> used the G.I. Bill to learn the laundry business. After opening Fair Oaks Cleaner and Laundry, he joined the Junior Chamber of Commerce, from which emerged the “Young Turks,” a group of rising community activists whose support was crucial to his 1964 election as chair. Upon taking office, <mask> persuaded the public to approve a $14.9 million bond referendum — a huge amount for the time. The bonds provided funds for five badly needed projects: road and bridge improvements, public parks, a library system, an expanded courthouse complex and a new juvenile home. The bulk of the money ($9.4 million) was for roads. At the time the county still had about 600 miles of dirt roads and at least three thoroughfares that even lacked bridges over creeks.Following the successful bond referendum, <mask> began a 20-year effort to make

After the referendum, the county began acquiring land and building parks. On July 11, 1970, Shaw Park off Canton Highway became the first of the new recreation areas to open. Public parks had historically existed in cities, not unincorporated rural areas. But the suburbanization of America had created a need for county recreational facilities. Cobb's assumption of this responsibility made it a leader in the state and nation.Libraries had also been a city rather than a county responsibility. Marietta's Clarke Library dated back to 1893. In addition, Acworth, Smyrna and Austell supported small city libraries. As late as the 1950s, the county system consisted of little more than a couple of bookmobiles that traveled around to various sites. Gradually the county system expanded. The bond referendum provided almost $1 million of additional revenues to build new library buildings in Powder Springs, Acworth, Kennesaw, Fair Oaks, Mableton, Oakdale and Marietta. When <mask> took office, one of Cobb's greatest deficiencies was a lack of adequate sewerage in unincorporated areas.In a dozen or more subdivisions, developers had built their own package treatment plants and turned them over to the county to maintain. But much of the county existed on septic tanks, and Sweetwater, Nickajack, Sope and Rottenwood Creeks all were terribly polluted. When Tom Cousins sold his first homes in Indian Hills in 1970, east Cobb was so rural the only business within miles was a country grocery store and gas pump at the corner of Lower Roswell and Johnson's Ferry. Indian Hills had its own sewage plant in hope a county line would
