 season. It was confirmed on 22 March 2007 that <mask> had accepted a three-year contract with the Bundesliga club. He was rarely used in his first season at the club, seeing just 60 minutes of playing time in four games for the Bundesliga side that was relegated at the end of the season. However, he was an integral part of the reserve side's promotion efforts that saw 1. FC Nürnberg II reach the newly organised Regionalliga Süd. In the following season, he was hampered by injury trouble early on, seeing just three matches for the professional team and four – with one goal – for the reserve side before the winter break.He went on to unsuccessfully trial with Danish club Esbjerg fB. Surprisingly, <mask> appeared back on the scene when he was brought on in a first team match against SC Freiburg in which he scored his first competitive goal for 1. FC Nürnberg, giving the team the 1–0 win at Dreisamstadion. After that match, <mask> won more opportunities in the Nürnberg first-team scoring another crucial goal in a 1–0 win over FC Ingolstadt 04 in early May, before another a week later in the Franconian derby against Greuther Fürth which ended 1–1. <mask> went on to help Nürnberg seal promotion back to the Bundesliga. In an interview in May 2009, <mask> admitted a debut call-up to the Australian national football team would be a dream end to a great season. MSV Duisburg
On 19 January 2010 his club 1.FC Nürnberg announced that the 22-year-old offensive midfielder will play on loan for MSV Duisburg the rest of the season. Arminia Bielefeld

<mask>. (December 17, 1897 – November 13, 1961) was an American diplomat who served as ambassador to several countries between the 1930s and 1961. He served in the United States Army during World War I and after World War II, reaching the rank of major general. Early life
<mask> was the son of millionaire <mask>.  (1874–1948), and Cordelia Rundell Bradley (1873–1947). A member of the <mask> family, he was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, on December 17, 1897. His father, grandson of banker <mask> and great-grandson of banker <mask>, was an eccentric boxing fan. When he was ten years old, the younger <mask> was in an exhibition match with Bob Fitzsimmons, who knocked him into a wall with a punch traveling about two inches. He graduated from St. Paul's School in Concord, New Hampshire, but never attended college.Career
In World War I, he first enlisted as a private, and was promoted to rank of captain. In the 1920s he engaged in several business ventures, which were known as social successes but financial failures. For example, he managed Belgian boxer René deVos, and invested in the St. Regis Hotel. A party he held for the boxer at the hotel was marked by the loss of many bottles of fine champagne (at great expense due to prohibition in the United States). "Guests" even tried to wheel out the piano before it was retrieved. <mask> also made a deal to rent part of Central Park in New York City and open an expensive nightclub called Central Park Casino. After the Wall Street Crash of 1929 many of his investments failed.The Casino was raided and shut down. In 1931 he and other directors of the bankrupt Sonora Products Corporation of America (formerly Acoustic Products Company, in the phonograph and radio business) were

 sued by the Irving Trust Company. The directors were accused of diverting profits from stock sales into their own accounts. A district court dismissed the claims against the defendants, but the dismissal of <mask> and several others was reversed on appeal. Diplomatic career
After <mask> was appointed Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary to Norway on July 22, 1935, he settled the Irving case out of court to avoid a bond required before leaving the country to assume the post. He presented his credentials on September 7, 1935. It was widely suspected he was a political appointee resulting from his support of the Democratic Party and  George Howard Earle III, its 1934 successful candidate for Governor of Pennsylvania.However, his social skills made him and his wife ideally suited to being a diplomat. On May 4, 1937, he was promoted to Ambassador to Poland and presented his credentials in Warsaw, Poland on June 2, 1937. In September 1939 Germany invaded Poland, which was a major cause of World War II. After <mask>'s house was hit with bomb fragments, his family and embassy staff fled to various temporary quarters. After the escape, he joined the Polish government in exile in France until June 1940, when he and his wife Margaret received transit visas from the Portuguese consul Aristides de Sousa Mendes, in Bordeaux, and crossed into Portugal. They stayed in Estoril, at the Hotel Palácio, between 19 July and 31 July 1940. On 1 August 1940, they boarded the S.S. Excalibur headed for New York City, arriving on 10 August.On February 11, 1941, he also commissioned to the governments-in-exile of Belgium, Czechoslovakia, Greece, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Norway, and Yugoslavia. <mask> arrived in London on March 14,

 1941, and continued as ambassador through 1943. During the period, he owned Saint Hill Manor in West Sussex, a country estate which was later sold to Church of Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard. Later career
In January 1944, <mask> resigned from the State Department and joined the Army as lieutenant colonel to serve on the staff of Dwight Eisenhower. His contacts with "underground" movements and free military units in occupied nations provided intelligence for the planning of Operation Overlord, the Allied invasion of France. He continued on Eisenhower's staff supervising European reconstruction after the war ended. In March 1951 he was promoted to brigadier general.At his promotion ceremony, Eisenhower pinned on one of <mask>'s stars. In April 1955, he resigned from the Army to become Adjutant General of the Pennsylvania National Guard. Nevertheless, as a member of the Army Reserve, he was promoted to major general in August. In 1961, <mask> became the United States Ambassador to Spain, though he did not speak Spanish fluently; in which he served until shortly before his death. Personal life
On June 16, 1915, <mask> married Mary Lillian Duke (1887–1960), a tobacco heiress who was the daughter of Benjamin Newton Duke. They divorced in 1931 after having two children:
 Mary Duke <mask> (1920–2012), who married Dr. Josiah Charles Trent. After his death, she married Dr. James Semans.Nicholas Duke <mask> (1921–2004), who was initially named <mask> <mask> <mask> III, only to have his mother change his name following the divorce.

title: Evan Murray-Macgregor

texts: Major-General Sir <mask> of Macgregor, 2nd Baronet,  (born Murray; 1785 – 14 June 1841) was a Scottish colonial administrator and senior British army officer. Murray's father was a baronet and chief of Clan Gregor; the family had a military tradition, which Murray followed, serving in the British Army from 1801. He fought in the Peninsular War (1808–11) and, after arriving in India in 1811, the Third Anglo-Maratha War (1817–18); he was severely injured while serving in the latter. By that time a Lieutenant-Colonel, he returned to England in 1820, inherited his father's baronetcy and chieftaincy two years later (adding Macgregor to his surname) and was appointed an aide-de-camp to the King in 1825. In 1831, he was appointed Governor of Dominica and the following year became Governor of Antigua and the Leeward Islands, during which time he assented to the abolition of slavery on the island (1834); unusually, he was able to do this without using the optional transitional and highly restrictive apprenticeship system on the islands. The relative peace which followed immediate emancipation convinced him that this could be achieved elsewhere. He became Governor of Barbados and the Windward Islands in 1836, and worked to bring about the early end of the apprenticeship system which had been implemented on the islands in 1834; although he achieved that result in 1838, the British also passed an Act of Parliament overruling the local legislature to the same effect and Murray-Macgregor was accused of

 duplicity by some of the island's planters, who refused his request to bring their own termination date earlier still.Murray-Macgregor proclaimed early termination, effective on 1 August 1838. In the aftermath, he also had restrictive employment contract laws overruled. Although controversial and blamed for deteriorating legislative–executive relations during this episode, he has also been regarded as conciliatory and tactful in his approach to governing, with his administration overseeing liberal reforms. Having suffered from ill health for some time, Murray-Macgregor died in office in 1841. Early life and family
<mask> Murray was born either in January 1785 or on 2 June 1785, the only child of Captain John Murray (1745–1822), an officer in the Bengal Army, and his wife Anne, daughter of Roderick Macleod, WS, of Edinburgh. In 1787, his father inherited the chieftaincy of Clan Gregor (or Macgregor) and in 1795 was created a baronet. On 28 May 1808, Murray married Lady Elizabeth Murray (1787–1846), daughter of John Murray, 4th Duke of Atholl, and had five sons who lived to adulthood:
 John Atholl Bannatyne Murray-Macgregor (1810–1851), who would inherit the baronetcy and serve as President of the British Virgin Islands.<mask> William Murray-Macgregor (1819–1850), an officer in the Austrian military. James Strathallan Murray-Macgregor (1821–1843), who died in Dominica. Lieutenant Francis Alexander Robert Murray Macgregor (1823–1857), an officer in the Indian Army who was killed by members of

 employed on a one-year contract, which could be ended by either party with one month's notice. It placed workers at a disadvantage, allowing employers to evict them from tied tenancies and punish them for misbehaviour (imposing jail terms for using foul language). Employers were also allowed to employ private police on their estate. Murray-Macgregor disliked the law, feeling it unfair on workers; he convinced the Colonial Office in October 1838 to overrule it and another vagrancy law which was being abused by planters. Workers were also critical of their low wages and he encouraged them to negotiate with their employers.In 1840, a "mildly modified" form of the 1838 Act was passed, which allowed for contracts of one month instead of one year. Despite that, the Act "institutionalised discrimination against black and coloured workers". Death and legacy
Murray-Macgregor's health had been "for some time delicate", but his death in office at Barbados on 14 June 1841 was "unexpected", according to one contemporary. His funeral was paid for by public funds and attended by a large number of government officials, army and navy officers and "gentlemen" from across the colony. He was succeeded in the baronetcy by his son John. Macgregor's role in the process of ending the apprenticeship scheme on Barbados was summarised by the historian Woodville K. Marshall: "the policy and actions of ... Sir <mask> [sic], are of central importance. He, more than any other, was responsible for the early termination of

<mask> (16 January 1892 – 10 August 1949) was an American chemist who studied the hydrogenation of organic compounds. <mask> was regarded as top in his field and a world authority on the hydrogenation of organic compounds. <mask> is known for his wartime work, where he experimented with chemical agents and poisonous gasses. Renowned for his work, <mask> eventually suffered a series of heart attacks and died in 1949. Early life and work
<mask> was born on January 16, 1892, in Newport, Ohio, the son of Emily (née Middleswart) and <mask>. He grew up on a farm with his brother and sister. After attending and finishing high school in Newport, he entered Denison University.Having a reputation as a tall and shy boy, <mask> graduated in three and a half years. <mask> then spent three years at Ohio State University. He took his Master's degree in 1916, and his Ph.D. in 1918, under the direction of William Lloyd Evans. After receiving his degree, he began work as a research chemist for the United States Department of War. In the following academic year, <mask> served as an instructor in organic chemistry at Ohio State University and in the summer of 1919 he was a research chemist with E. I. Du Pont De Nemours and Company. In 1919, <mask> came to the University of Wisconsin–Madison.He remained there each year until his death in 1949, except for two summers he spent working in industry at the Bakelite Corporation in 1924, and 1926 and for responsibilities from 1942 to 1945 as administrator and research director in the war program of the National Defense Research Committee and the Office of Scientific Research and Development. <mask> was a lecturer to graduate students in a course entitled "Survey of Organic Chemistry," but he also kept contact with students in elementary and continued for most of the time to give lectures in the first course in organic chemistry. In 1919, <mask> began his thesis on the rates of oxidation by potassium permanganate of acetaldehyde, oxalic acid and the rates of reactions having to do with different additions of temperature and molarity. His overall interest was the nature of the intermediate of these reactions. Soon after, he wrote a second paper

 concerning reaction rates and a third involving the catalytic addition of oxides on esters. His whole research began to revolve around the nature of a product resulting from a reaction depending on the catalyst given. The study on catalysts led to his most important contribution, the hydrogenation of an ester to an alcohol with the use of a copper chromite catalyst.After the study on copper chromite, <mask> delved further and further into hydrogenation reactions and the use of catalysts. A new reaction came out of his research in which hydrogen is added to a double bond on a catalytic surface, the given molecule then splits off into two separate molecules. <mask> published many books on top of his position as a lecturer and successful researcher. He published his most recognizable book, “Reactions of Hydrogen”, referring to his extensive studies and pioneering of Hydrogenation. He also co-published many of the books students in Organic Chemistry classes studied with. A widely known textbook, “Elementary Organic Chemistry” was co-written by <mask> and published by McGraw-Hill Book Company. World War II
Throughout World War II, <mask> focused his research on wartime necessities.Many feared that poisonous gases would be used extensively in World War II as they had been during World War I. <mask>' laboratory at Wisconsin engaged in chemical warfare research. Classified documents at the time revealed <mask> and his colleagues describing their research on agents to produce blistering, vomiting, tearing and sneezing. <mask> also studied the removal of the effects of poison agents by using multiple different kinds of chemicals and ointments, combined with protective clothing for soldiers. Due to the magnitude and effect of his work, <mask> was a recipient of the Medal for Merit in 1948 for his wartime studies. <mask> was a world authority on the hydrogenation of organic compounds and he developed the Adkins catalyst partly based on interrogation of German chemists after World War II in relation to the Fischer–Tropsch process. <mask> also coined the word hydrogenolysis to describe the chemical reaction in which a molecule is broken into smaller molecules by the reaction of

 hydrogen. He developed the Adkins–Peterson reaction with Wesley J. Peterson.Later life and death
While he was a graduate student at the Ohio State University, <mask> married Louise Spivey, who was a classmate of his at Denison and who was teaching high school mathematics. The pair had three children: Susanne, Nance, and Roger. He had three grandchildren from Susanne. <mask> enjoyed leisure activities, such as golfing, as he found it was relaxing and he needed the exercise. Teaching, maintaining a large research program, and war time pressure took a heavy toll on <mask>' strength. While playing a game of golf in the late spring of 1949, <mask> suffered a minor heart attack. He concluded that as soon as he had the chance to get treatment, he would.After a meeting with other interested chemists regarding his research, <mask> suffered a larger heart attack and was hospitalized for roughly a month. <mask>' condition seemed to improve, so he was sent home. His health suddenly again began failing rapidly. Weakened and bed-ridden, <mask> died in Madison, Wisconsin, on August 12, 1949. Awards and honours
During his lifetime, <mask> received many honors. He received an honorary Doctor of Science degree from Denison University, his alma mater, in 1938. President Harry S. Truman awarded <mask> with the Medal for Merit.In 1942, <mask> was accepted as a member of the National Academy of Sciences. Legacy
After his death, <mask>' many former students and friends founded the <mask> Adkins Fellowship, which supported a graduate student in chemistry at the University of Wisconsin. President Edwin B. Fred of the University of Wisconsin said, "He was recognized as one of the leading chemists that America has produced. He was the kind of man who makes a University distinguished." President James B. Conant of Harvard said, "the academic world has suffered an irreparable loss." Notes

<mask> (born September 27, 1951) is an American writer, editor and publisher for various comic books. He started professionally in the medium at the age of 14, and he is most notable for his successful and controversial run as Marvel Comics' ninth editor-in-chief, and his work as editor in chief of Valiant Comics. Early life
<mask> was born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, to parents Ken and Eleanor "Ellie" <mask>, who are of Polish descent. Shooter read comics as a child, though he stopped when he was about eight years old. His interest in the medium was rekindled in 1963, at the age of twelve, through the comics in the children's ward of the hospital where he convalesced after undergoing minor surgery. He found the DC Comics stories to be similar to the DC stories he had previously read, but was impressed with the style of the Marvel Comics, which had only begun publication two years earlier. Thinking that if he learned to write the types of stories that Marvel published, he would be an asset to DC Comics – whose books, Shooter felt, "needed the help" – Shooter spent about a year reading and studying comics from both companies.Career

DC Comics

At age 13, in mid-1965, he wrote and drew stories featuring the Legion of Superheroes, and sent them in to DC Comics. On February 10, 1966, he received a phone call from Mort Weisinger, who wanted to purchase the stories Shooter had sent, and commissioned Shooter to write Supergirl and Superman stories. Weisinger eventually offered Shooter a regular position on Legion, and wanted Shooter

 to come to New York to spend a couple of days in his office. Shooter, who was 14 and lived in Pittsburgh, had to wait until school was in recess, after which he went to New York with his mother, spurred in part by the need to support his financially struggling parents. According to Shooter, his father earned very little as a steelworker, and Shooter saw comic-book writing as a means of helping economically. Shooter reflected in a 2010 interview:

At 14, Shooter began selling stories to DC Comics, writing for both Action Comics and Adventure Comics, beginning with Adventure Comics No. 346 (July 1966), and providing pencil breakdowns as well.Shooter created several characters for the Legion of Super-Heroes including Karate Kid, a teenage superhero who predated the martial arts fad of the 1970s; Ferro Lad, a teenage superhero who can transform to living iron; and Princess Projectra, who could cast realistic illusions; as well as the Sun-Eater and the group of ultra-powerful villains known as The Fatal Five. He also created the Superman villain the Parasite in Action Comics No. 340 (Aug. 1966). Shooter and artist Curt Swan devised the first race between the Flash and Superman, two characters known for their super-speed powers, in "Superman's Race with the Flash!" in Superman No. 199 (Aug. 1967). Shooter wrote the first issue of Captain Action (Oct.-Nov. 1968), which was DC's first toy tie-in.In 1969 <mask> was accepted into New York University, but after graduating from high school he successfully applied for a job at Marvel

texts: job during a relatively short span of time, only to find the task too daunting as Marvel continued to grow and add new titles and a larger staff to turn out material. On January 2, 1976, <mask> joined the Marvel staff as an assistant editor and writer. With the quick turnover at the top, <mask> rapidly found himself rising in the ranks, and on the first working day of January 1978, he succeeded Archie Goodwin to become Marvel's ninth editor-in-chief. During this period, publisher Stan Lee relocated to Los Angeles to better oversee Marvel's animation, television and film projects, leaving <mask> largely in charge of the creative decision-making at Marvel's New York City headquarters. Although there were complaints among some that Shooter imposed a dictatorial style on the "Bullpen", he cured many of the procedural ills at Marvel, successfully managed to keep the line of books on schedule (ending the widespread practice of missed deadlines), add new titles, and develop new talent.Shooter in his nine-year tenure as editor-in-chief oversaw Chris Claremont and John Byrne's run on the Uncanny X-Men, Byrne's work on Fantastic Four, Frank Miller's series of Daredevil stories, Walt Simonson's crafting of Norse mythology with the Marvel Universe in Thor, and Roger Stern's runs on both Avengers and The Amazing Spider-Man. In 1981, Shooter brought Marvel into the lucrative comic book specialty shop market with Dazzler #1. Featuring a disco-themed heroine with ties to the X-Men (based upon an unproduced motion picture set to star Bo Derek),

texts: the first issue of this series was sold only through specialty stores, bypassing the then-standard newsstand/spinner rack distribution route altogether, as recognition by Marvel of the growing comics shop sector. Subsequent issues of Dazzler, however, were sold through newsstand [returnable] accounts as well. Dazzler was the first direct sales-only ongoing series from a major publisher; other Marvel titles, such as Marvel Fanfare and Ka-Zar, soon followed. Later that same year, Shooter wrote Marvel Treasury Edition No. 28 which featured the second Superman and Spider-Man intercompany crossover.Additionally in 1981, <mask> was recognized as one of six "New Yorkers of the Year" by the New York chapter of the JayCees, for his "contributions toward revitalizing the comics industry and helping Marvel Comics achieve a new pinnacle of success." Shooter also institutionalized creator royalties, starting the Epic imprint for creator-owned material in 1982; introduced company-wide crossover events, with Marvel Super Hero Contest of Champions and Secret Wars; and launched a new, albeit ultimately unsuccessful, line named New Universe, to commemorate Marvel's 25th anniversary, in 1986. Despite his success in revitalizing Marvel, <mask> angered and alienated a number of long-time Marvel creators by insisting on strong editorial control and strict adherence to deadlines. Although he instituted an art-return program, and implemented a policy giving creators royalties when their books passed certain sales benchmarks or when characters they

After being ousted from Valiant in 1992, <mask> and several of his co-workers went on to found Defiant Comics in early 1993. Despite some initial success with the first title, the new company failed to secure an audience in the increasingly crowded direct sales market and folded after thirteen months of publishing. In 1995, Shooter founded Broadway Comics, which was an offshoot of Broadway Video, the production company that produces Saturday Night Live, but this line folded after its parent sold the properties to Golden Books. In 1998, he spoke of a planned self-publishing, Daring Comics, with a projected eight titles including Anomalies and Rathh of God, with artist Joe James scheduled to draw at least one. Shooter returned to Valiant, by now called Acclaim Comics, briefly in 1999 to write Unity 2000 (an attempt to combine and revitalize the older and newer Valiant Universes) but Acclaim folded after the completion of only three of the planned six issues. 2000–2010s

In September 2007, DC Comics announced that <mask> would be the new writer of the Legion of Super-Heroes vol. 5 series, beginning with issue #37. <mask>'s return to the Legion, a little over 30 years from his previous run, was his first major published comic book work in years.<mask> co-created the new Legionnaire Gazelle with artist Francis Manapul while on the title.

<mask>  (11 January 1858 – 11 October 1941) was an Irish artist, who worked in watercolour and oil of landscape, genre and animal subjects. <mask> was born and spent most of her life in  Kilmurry, Thomastown, County Kilkenny and was associated with the Newlyn School of painters. <mask>'s en plein air style is dominated by the theme of nature and reflects scenes of domesticity around the family home in Kilmurry. She achieved distinction in her lifetime and exhibited in major galleries in Ireland and England. Among her patrons were Queen Mary of Teck and Louis IV, Grand Duke of Hesse. She became a member of the Royal Academy in 1893. In 1896, <mask>'s Morning Bath was exhibited at the Royal Academy.It was the first work by a female artist to be purchased by the trustees of the Chantrey Bequest and was then presented to the Tate. She became an associate member of the Royal Watercolour Society in 1896 and was granted full membership in 1937. She was one of the first academicians elected by the Ulster Academy of Arts in 1930. She virtually stopped painting by the 1930s due to arthritis and died in 1941, aged 83. Around four hundred pieces of her work were sold as part of the artist's studio sale in 1980.

Mildred <mask> was born in 1858 in Kilmurry, a Georgian House near Thomastown and was the youngest daughter of Captain <mask>, a grandson of the <mask>, 11th Viscount Mountgarret.Knowledge of <mask>'s life and working methods are almost entirely on the watercolours themselves and on her diaries, which are preserved for most years between 1892 and 1938. <mask>'s quirky titles such as Ancient Rubbish, A Tit-Bit and Chucked; Green Eyed Jealousy: Ravens amongst trees show the artist's playful sensibility. Her father, <mask>, was an amateur artist favouring subjects from nature he encountered on journeys abroad, in particular exotic

<mask>'s father Henry may have encouraged her to paint in her youth but her artistic training began in London in the late 1880s with the watercolourist Paul Jacob Naftel, whom she credited for her understanding of watercolours. <mask> like her friend Rose Barton, who also studied under Naftel, did not follow his choice of landscape, instead she devoted herself to cattle, birds, and flower gardens.She continued her studies at Westminster School of Art under William Frank Calderon who specialised in animal painting and later opened a school of animal painting. At Frank Calderon's School she studied the subject of cows, and it was that work for which she was elected to the Old Society, the Royal Academy. In her late twentieths, <mask> made annual visits to the continent until the outbreak of war. She travelled to  France, Belgium, Switzerland and Italy. In Paris, she studied drawing, figure drawing and fine art painting. While in Paris she became associated with the Newlyn school and went on to spend the summers of 1894 and 1895 in Newlyn in Cornwall. Newlyn at that time was the centre for a group of artists who were interested in plein-air subjects, many of whom had previously studied in France.She was attached to the Newlyn School, and Norman Garstin's studio in particular alongside contemporaries such as Walter Osborne and Sir John Lavery. Garstin like Osborne had been a pupil of the Antwerp master Charles Verlat. <mask> established a friendship with Luke Fildes, Stanhope Forbes whom she met at Newlyn. The influence of the Limerick-born Garstin, and Forbes, and the contact with the Newlyn School informed <mask>'s development and

 remained an important influence on her work throughout her life. <mask> continuously exhibited throughout her career and proved herself to be a keen business woman capable of marketing her watercolours successfully with patrons such as Queen Mary of Teck and Louis IV, Grand Duke of Hesse. She was a member of the Society of Lady Artists. She was one of the first nine academicians elected by the Ulster Academy of Arts in 1930.She was granted full membership into the Royal Watercolour Society in 1937, having been an associate member since 1896. Style

<mask> was a painter in oil and watercolour of landscape, genre and animal subjects. Her range of work was dominated by the theme of nature and her subject matter reflected the scenes of domesticity surrounding her Kilmurry home. <mask>'s house was a huge source of inspiration throughout her life, its garden and surroundings, provided passion for many of her paintings which often included the surrounding gardens, pasture and countryside. These themes interested her particularly remained a constant subject. She also did genre views of villages and towns on the continent. <mask> painted en plein air with instils her work with animated freshness, which she depicts with a degree of realism and expression.Paintings such as Meditation (1889) were considered revolutionary by the art establishment and by critics of the day. The critic of the magazine Hearth and Home described her habit of painting in the open air, rare at the time, and said it give an actuality and a freshness to the painting. Works and exhibitions

She exhibited in various galleries and institutions including the Royal Hibernian Academy, the Watercolour Society of Ireland, the Belfast Ramblers' Sketching Club, the Royal Academy (1889–1902) and the Royal Watercolour Society. In 1906 she exhibited at the Watercolour Society of Ireland, in Dublin, with works such as The Garden Cart and later that winter in London, at the  Old Water-Colour Society where the exhibition included pieces such as Where the Grass Grows Green. In Spring 1919 an exhibition at the Royal Watercolour Society, London, included Tramore  Strand, Low water (1889) The Delegates (1923) was exhibited at the New Irish Salon. In 1980, watercolours, drawings and sketches, together with notes, letters and diaries were sold as part of the artist's studio sale.Some were sold in Ireland and others at a studio sale at Christie's in London. The National Gallery of Ireland purchased seven fine watercolours for its permanent collection. Fota House in Cork contains one of her works.

<mask> (5 April 1912 – 29 October 2000) was an Argentine composer, considered one of the foremost composers of his country. His production amounted to over 500 works, most of them songs for piano and voice, many still unpublished. His style was quite conservative, always tonal and lushly romantic. His compositions were clearly influenced by Argentine folk music. His reputation was based almost entirely on his songs, and Guastavino has sometimes been called "the Schubert of the Pampas". Some of his songs, for example Pueblito, mi pueblo, La rosa y el sauce ("The Rose and the Willow") and Se equivocó la paloma ("The Dove Was Wrong"), became national favorites. Unlike most other composers, at any time or place, Guastavino earned enough from his royalties and performing rights that he had little need for other income.Many famous performers, such as Teresa Berganza, Martha Argerich, Gidon Kremer, José Carreras, Kiri Te Kanawa, Patricia Caicedo, Bernarda Fink, Cecilia Pillado, María Isabel Siewers, Jorge Chaminé, Agathe Martel, Karina Gauvin,Julie Nesrallah and José Cura have included works of <mask> on their programs or recordings. Life
<mask> was born in Santa Fe Province, Argentina. He studied music in Santa Fe with Esperanza Lothringer and Dominga Iaffei, and in Buenos Aires with Athos Palma. A talented pianist, he performed his piano works in London in 1947, 1948, and 1949, invited by the BBC, and as a recipient of a scholarship from the British Council. During these years, the BBC Symphony Orchestra premiered the orchestral version of his Tres Romances Argentinos, under the baton of Walter Goehr. Later, in 1956, Guastavino toured the USSR and China, performing his pieces for voice

 and piano. Compositional style
<mask>'s musical style marked a stark contrast with the works of his 20th-century Argentine contemporaries such as Alberto Ginastera and reveals the influence of European composers such as Albéniz, Granados, Rachmaninoff, Chabrier, Falla, Debussy, and Ravel, but also is clearly inherited from the luminaries of 19th-century Argentine nationalist composers, such as Alberto Williams, Ernesto Drangosch, Francisco Hargreaves, Eduardo García Mansilla and Julián Aguirre.Aguirre's delicate and intimate piano writing is an especially evident influence on Guastavino. <mask>'s stylistic isolation from the modernist and avant-garde movements going on around him, and the self-consciously nationalist content of his songs made him a model for Argentine popular and folk musicians in the 1960s. Guastavino published more than 150 songs for voice and piano, numerous piano solo pieces, choral works, school songs, and chamber music. The poets whose works he set to music included Rafael Alberti, Leon Benarós, Hamlet Lima Quintana, Atahualpa Yupanqui, Pablo Neruda, Gabriela Mistral, and Jorge Luis Borges. A small number of his songs are settings of his own texts. His works for orchestra included Divertissement; fue una vez, commissioned by Colonel W. de Basil for his original Ballet Russe and premiered at the Teatro Colón, in Buenos Aires, in 1942; and Suite Argentina which was performed in London, Paris, Barcelona, and Havana by the Ballet Español of Isabel Lopez. He also wrote three Sonatas for guitar.Awards

 Champion on Star Search 2, losing the Junior Grand Champion title to Tiffany Evans. On one episode, he competed against then-11-year-old Alexandréa Lushington, who became a top 20 semi-finalist on American Idol alongside Archuleta.Around the second year of being on Star Search he started focusing on the lyrics, "I didn't even pay attention to the lyrics when I was 12, 13." Archuleta's competing on Star Search was preceded by an appearance on The Jenny Jones Show, meeting the finalists from American Idols first season, for whom he performed a spontaneous a cappella rendition of "And I Am Telling You I'm Not Going" from Dreamgirls. He received praise from Season 1 winner Kelly Clarkson, and the episode led to appearances on CBS's The Early Show. The year after Star Search, he found out he had partial vocal paralysis but declined risky surgery and has said he feels he is almost fully recovered. He limited his singing to specific occasions, like Stadium of Fire, the Independence Day celebration at Brigham Young University Stadium. Archuleta made initial attempts at songwriting and arranging music after his Star Search experience and has written at least three songs. His first singles in 2002 written by his father and Sunny Hilden "Dream Sky High" and a song he had written by Yani Gileadi "Don't Tell Me".2007–2008: American Idol and <mask>

texts: background "waiting" in the song. He was sixteen during the Hollywood auditions and attended school while a part of American Idol 's seventh season. A parent/guardian was required to be there because he was a minor. Archuleta took advantage of the decision to allow contestants to play musical instruments when he accompanied himself on piano for his performances of "Crazy", "Another Day in Paradise", and "Angels". During the 1970s themed week Archuleta sang the John Lennon song "Imagine", omitting the earlier verses in favor of the last one. Los Angeles Times columnist Ann Powers speculated that he wanted to avoid singing "no religion too" because of his faith. "As a Mormon, he's unlikely to espouse the song's agnostic ideal", she wrote.However, he did sing the entire song on "Good Things Utah" when he was 13. Asked by judge Randy Jackson why he did not sing the first verse, Archuleta said the third verse was his favorite because it has "a great message". After his performance of "We Can Work It Out", which judge Simon Cowell called "a mess", Entertainment Tonight reported that Archuleta was feeling pressure from his father, Jeff, who "reportedly yelled at" his son after a recording session the previous night. <mask>, in an interview with Us Weekly, denied the claim. A May 2008 Associated Press article reported that Jeff Archuleta had his son add a lyric from the Sean Kingston song "Beautiful Girls" into an interpretation of "Stand by Me" (from which "Beautiful Girls" samples its bass line), increasing the costs for licensing, and that this had resulted in Jeff Archuleta being banned from American Idol

During the Top 7 results show, the contestants were split into two groups.In one group was Syesha Mercado, Brooke White, and Kristy Lee Cook. In the other group was <mask>, Carly Smithson, and Jason Castro. Archuleta was the only one not sorted into a group. He was declared safe after the groups were formed, then was asked to choose the group he thought was safe. He refused, and sat down on the floor of the stage, much as Melinda Doolittle had done the previous season. In the finale he sang "Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me", "In This Moment" and "Imagine". Judge Simon Cowell declared that Archuleta won the evening and even <mask>, who ultimately won, thought Archuleta would win: "I have to concede it, the kid came out all three songs and nailed it", said Cook.In the final tally, Archuleta received 44 percent of the votes. During the finale show, identical commercials featuring Archuleta and fellow finalist Cook mimicked the Tom Cruise scene from Risky Business where he dances in his underwear playing an air guitar; they were promoting the game franchise Guitar Hero. Archuleta's first appearances on music ranking charts were with the three songs he performed in the American Idol finale; "Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me", "In This Moment", and "Imagine", debuted on the Billboard Hot 100 chart the week of June 7, 2008. "Imagine" entered at number 36 (giving Archuleta his first top forty hit), "Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me" at number 58, and "In This Moment" entered at number 60. That same week he had

<mask> ( Bratt; 21 January 1889 – 29 November 1971) was an Englishwoman, known as the wife and muse of the novelist J. R. R<mask>, and the inspiration for his fictional Middle-earth characters Lúthien Tinúviel and Arwen Undómiel. Biography

Early life
<mask> was born in Gloucester on 21 January 1889. Her mother, Frances Bratt, was 30 years old, unmarried, and was the daughter of a local shoe and bootmaker. According to Humphrey Carpenter, Frances Bratt never married and the name of <mask>'s father is not listed on her birth certificate. Even so, Frances is reported to have always preserved a photograph of her daughter's father and his name was known within the Bratt family. <mask>, however, was always deeply conscious of having been conceived illegitimately and never told her own children the name of their grandfather. Subsequent research has identified <mask>'s father as Birmingham paper dealer Alfred Frederick Warrilow, who had previously employed Frances Bratt as governess to his daughter, Nellie Warrilow.When Warrilow died in 1891, he named Frances as his sole executrix in his will. <mask> was brought up in Handsworth, a suburb of Birmingham, by her mother and also her cousin, Jenny Grove (related to Sir George Grove). According to Humphrey Carpenter, the circumstances of <mask>'s birth were a regular subject of neighbourhood gossip. Frances Bratt died when her daughter was 14 and <mask> was sent to the Dresden House boarding school in Evesham. The school was run by the Watts sisters, who had studied music in Dresden. Although the school had a very "strict regime", <mask> was always to remember it fondly. It was at the Dresden House School where <mask> "first developed her great love, and talent, for playing the piano."Following school, <mask> was expected to become a concert pianist or at the very least a piano teacher. While he considered how to proceed, <mask>'s guardian, solicitor Stephen Gateley, found her rooms at Mrs. Faulkner's boarding house at 37 Duchess Road, Birmingham.

 Courtship
The boarding house at 37 Duchess Road "was a gloomy, creeper-covered house, hung with dingy lace curtains". It was owned and operated by Mrs. Faulkner, whose husband Louis was "a wine merchant with a taste for his own wares". Mrs. Faulkner was also a Roman Catholic and "an active member" of the parish attached to the nearby Birmingham Oratory. Mrs. Faulkner hosted musical soirées which were often attended by the Oratory's priests. She was delighted to have, in <mask>, a pianist to accompany the soloists.Whenever <mask> attempted to practise, however, Mrs. Faulkner "would sweep into the room as soon as the scales and arpeggios began", and say, "Now, <mask> dear,  enough for now!" In later years, <mask> told her children that her life at 37 Duchess Road was "rather restricted". Once, <mask>, who "had a lifelong enjoyment of the theatre", announced that she was going to a matinée at the Theatre Royal. In response, Mrs. Faulkner told her that, "she must take a book to read in the interval to avoid the risk of being talked to by strangers!" <mask> first met <mask> early in 1908, when he and his younger brother Hilary were moved into 37 Duchess Road by their guardian, Fr. Francis Xavier Morgan of the Birmingham Oratory. At the time <mask>, known within his family as Ronald, was 16 years old and <mask> was 19.According to Humphrey Carpenter, <mask> and Ronald took to frequenting Birmingham teashops, especially one which had a balcony overlooking the pavement. There they would sit and throw sugarlumps into the hats of passers-by, moving to the next table when the sugar bowl was empty. ...With two people of their personalities and in their position, romance was bound to flourish. Both were orphans in need of affection, and they found that they could give it to each other. During the summer of 1909, they decided that they were in love. However, before the end of the year the relationship had become known to <mask>'s guardian. Viewing <mask> as a distraction from <mask>'s schoolwork and

 bothered by her Anglican religion, he forbade any contact between them until <mask> became a legal adult at 21.<mask> grudgingly obeyed this instruction to the letter while Father Morgan's guardianship lasted. However, on the evening of his twenty-first birthday, <mask> wrote a letter to <mask>, who had since moved to Cheltenham. It contained a declaration of his love and asked her to marry him. She replied saying that she was already engaged but implied that she had done so out of a belief that <mask> had forgotten her. Within a week, <mask> had journeyed to Cheltenham where <mask> met him at the railway station. That day, <mask> returned her ring and announced her engagement to <mask> instead. Marriage
Following her engagement in January 1913, <mask> announced that she was converting to Roman Catholicism at <mask>'s insistence.Because <mask> was heavily involved in her local Anglican parish, she at first resisted the demands. Despite <mask>'s misgivings, her landlord, a staunch Protestant, was enraged and instantly turned her out of the house. The <mask>s were married in the Catholic Church of St Mary Immaculate in Warwick on 22 March 1916. Their week-long honeymoon was spent at Clevedon, in North Somerset, and included a visit to the Cheddar Caves. Soon after their wedding, <mask> commenced a course at the British Army signals school at Otley, and in order to be as close to his military camp as possible, <mask> moved with her cousin Jennie Grove to a cottage in the village of Great Haywood, where she lived from April 1916 to February 1917. Due to their wedding occurring during Lent, only the Marriage Service and not the Nuptial Mass had been performed; the couple received a nuptial blessing at the Roman Catholic Church of St John the Baptist, in Great Haywood. World War I
<mask> was subsequently commissioned as a second lieutenant into the Lancashire Fusiliers, transferring to the 11th (Service) Battalion, part of the 25th Division, with the British Expeditionary Force and arrived in

 France on 4 June 1916.He later wrote:
Junior officers were being killed off, a dozen a minute. Parting from my wife then ... it was like a death. <mask>'s service during the Battle of the Somme was very difficult for <mask>; she feared that every knock on the door might carry news of his death. To get around the British Army's postal censorship, the <mask>s arranged a means for letters from the trenches to contain coded messages. By deciphering the code, <mask> was able to track her husband's movements on a map of the Front. Homefront
After <mask>'s return from France, their first child, John Francis Reuel (16 November 1917 – 22 January 2003) was born in Cheltenham. While <mask> was stationed at Kingston upon Hull, <mask> and he went walking in the woods at nearby Roos, and she began to dance for him in a clearing among the flowering hemlock:
We walked in a wood where hemlock was growing, a sea of white flowers.This incident inspired the account of the meeting of Beren and Lúthien, and from that the Song of Beren and Luthien." Post-war
After World War I, the <mask>s had three more children: Michael Hilary Reuel (October 1920 – 1984), Christopher John Reuel (1924–2020) and Priscilla Anne Reuel (1929–). Professor's wife
<mask>'s professional career at the universities of Leeds and Oxford resulted in the family moving to these cities. According to Humphrey Carpenter, <mask> was not an intellectual and had a difficult time functioning around her husband's colleagues and their families. As she often had no companionship other than the children and the servants, <mask>'s loneliness frequently manifested itself as authoritarianism. Another result of her loneliness was her envy and resentment of <mask>'s close friendship with C.S. Lewis, whom she regarded as an intruder into her family.According to Carpenter, There was also the problem of <mask>'s attitude to Catholicism. Before they were married, Ronald had persuaded her to leave the Church of England and become a Catholic, and she had resented

 this a little at the time. During the subsequent years she had almost given up going to mass. In the second decade of marriage her anti-Catholic feelings hardened, and by the time the family returned to Oxford in 1925 she was showing resentment of Ronald taking the children to church. In part, these feelings were due to Ronald's rigid, almost medieval, insistence upon frequent confession; and <mask> had always hated confessing her sins to a priest. Nor could he discuss her feelings with her in a rational manner, certainly not with the lucidity he demonstrated in his theological arguments with author Lewis: to <mask> he presented only his emotional attachment to religion, of which she had little understanding. Occasionally, her smouldering anger about church-going burst into a fury; but at last after one such outburst in 1940 there was true reconciliation between her and Ronald, in which she explained her feelings and even declared that she wished to resume the practice of her religion.In the event she did not return to regular church-going, but for the rest of her life she showed no resentment of Catholicism, and indeed delighted to take an interest in church affairs, so that it appeared even to friends who were Catholics that she was an active church-goer. Later life
According to Humphrey Carpenter, Those friends who knew Ronald and <mask> over the years never doubted that there was deep affection between them. It was visible in the small things, the almost absurd degree in which each worried about the other's health, and the care in which they chose and wrapped each other's birthday presents; and in the large matters, the way in which Ronald willingly abandoned such a large part of his life in retirement to give <mask> the last years in Bournemouth that he felt she deserved, and the degree in which she showed pride in his fame as an author. A principal source of happiness to them was their shared love of their family. This bound them together until the end of their lives, and it was

She did most of the talking and it was not at all literary. Frequent subjects were the doings of the children, especially Christopher, the grandchildren, the garden in which I think Ronald enjoyed working, the iniquities of the Labour Party, the rising price of food, the changes for the worse in the Oxford shops and the difficulty in buying certain groceries. The road had deteriorated since they moved there. It used to be a quiet cul-de-sac.
