Métis identity
<mask> grew up in a Métis family. Given the social conditions in the 1930s of tension between the Indigenous and European-descended populations, being Métis meant fighting much harder for your spot in society. The influence of <mask>'s Cree-speaking grandmother, along with witnessing traditional Aboriginal practices as a part of everyday life rooted the rest of <mask>'s life as a proud, strong Aboriginal woman. In the 1960s, <mask> started to reclaim her Indigenous identity and become more involved in the Aboriginal community in Vancouver. 1 year after the Friendship Centre opened (called The Vancouver Indian Centre at the time), she was sitting on the board.<mask> also worked with First Nations designers and discovered and promoted Indigenous models. <mask> ran Self Appreciation classes in prisons (for men and women) at Oakalla, Matsqui and Maples Women's Prison. <mask> was working for the United Native Nations of which she organized the first ever United Native Nations Conference, the Friendship Centre, and was a founding member of the Professional Native Woman's Association. <mask> was a business woman at a time and place in history when the climate for women in business was not favourable. She became involved in the First Nations women's movement, eventually initiating a journalism program for Native students as well as a newspaper catering towards First Nation communities across British

 of the early Genesis songs uncredited including "Get 'Em Out by Friday" and "Cuckoo Cocoon". <mask> attended Sloane Grammar School in Chelsea. In the 1950s, the family relocated to Vancouver, Canada but returned home after his parents, his mother in particular, became too homesick. <mask> grew up having access to various musical instruments, such as the harmonica and recorder, but he did not develop an interest in the guitar until the age of 12 when he started playing single notes. By 14, he was learning chords and experimenting with chord progressions, although he never received any formal training. <mask>'s earliest musical influences were classical (Johann Sebastian Bach) and opera (Mario Lanza).He has said that his compositions are still influenced by them. <mask> also has cited numerous British blues artists as influences, namely Danny Kirwan, Peter Green, and various guitarists in John Mayall & the Bluesbreakers, as well as Jimi Hendrix, The Beatles, and King Crimson. Career

1968–1970: Early bands
<mask>'s first professional playing experience came as a member of three rock bands: Canterbury Glass, with whom he played on "Prologue" on their album Sacred Scenes and Characters which was recorded in 1968 but distributed in 2007; Heel Pier; and Sarabande, all of whom performed rock with progressive rock elements. He then joined Quiet World in 1970 which featured his brother John on flute. He did not write any material with the group as the band's founders directed what the other members played, which did not bother <mask> as he wished to get more experience in a recording studio since the band had secured a contract with a label. <mask> played on the band's only studio album, The Road

In December 1970, <mask> placed an advertisement in Melody Maker in his search for a new band.It read: "Imaginative guitarist-writer seeks involvement with receptive musicians, determined to strive beyond existing stagnant music forms". In a 2021 interview, <mask> explained that, by 'stagnant', he meant a lack of inclusion among the different music genres in the 1970s. The ad was responded to by Genesis lead vocalist Peter Gabriel. Genesis, which also comprised keyboardist Tony Banks, bassist Mike Rutherford, and drummer Phil Collins, had lost founding guitarist Anthony Phillips and sought a new, permanent replacement to his temporary replacement Mick Barnard. Gabriel advised <mask> to listen to their last album Trespass (1970) before <mask> auditioned for the group. <mask>'s first live gig with Genesis took place at City University, London on 24 January 1971. <mask>'s first recording with Genesis was Nursery Cryme (1971).He helped shape the group's sound by strongly encouraging them to incorporate a Mellotron into the songs, and his guitar work is prominently featured through solos on "The Musical Box", "The Return of the Giant Hogweed", and "The Fountain of Salmacis". He became an early proponent of the guitar tapping technique normally attributed to Eddie Van Halen. <mask> claimed that Van Halen had told him that he learned the technique after attending a Genesis concert in the mid-1970s. Foxtrot (1972) included <mask>'s guitar solo composition "Horizons", which he based on a Suite for Cello by Bach. Selling England by the Pound (1973) features <mask> using tapping and sweep picking, later popularised by Yngwie

The song "Firth of Fifth" contains one of <mask>'s most well-known guitar solos and has remained a favourite in concert even after <mask>'s departure. The writing sessions for The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway (1974) was a difficult time not just for <mask> but the entire group, partly due to the personal lives of some members which affected the mood in the group.<mask> explained: "Everybody had their own agenda. Some of us were married, some of us had children, some of us were getting divorced. And we were still trying to get it together in the country". <mask>, in particular, was going through a divorce from his first wife. While Gabriel wrote the majority of the lyrics, all the band members co-wrote the music. <mask> had picked out "The Lamia" and "Fly on a Windshield" as his favourite moments on the album. After recording his debut album Voyage of the Acolyte, <mask> resumed working in Genesis and recorded A Trick of the Tail (1976), the band's first with Collins on lead vocals.<mask> is credited on "Dance on a Volcano", "Entangled", and "Los Endos". The follow-up, Wind & Wuthering (1976), is <mask>'s final studio album with the band. He had grown increasingly constricted by his lack of freedom and level of input and was insistent that more of his material be included on the album, but was rebuffed. Of the nine tracks, he was credited with four: "Eleventh Earl of Mar", "Blood on the Rooftops", "Unquiet Slumbers for the Sleepers...", and "...In That Quiet Earth". Another track of <mask>'s, "Please Don't Touch", was rehearsed but rejected and replaced with an instrumental, "Wot Gorilla?". Another, "Inside and Out" (credited

After the Wind & Wuthering tour, <mask> left the band during the mixing stage of the Genesis live album, Seconds Out.His departure was announced in the press during the promotion of the album on 8 October 1977. <mask> has said that he "needed autonomy". Reunions
Since <mask>'s departure, the 1970–1975 line-up of Genesis has reunited a handful of times. On 2 October 1982, the group gathered for Six of the Best, a one-off performance held to raise money for Gabriel's WOMAD festival. In 1983, <mask> was joined on stage by Gabriel and Rutherford during a series of shows at the Civic Hall in Guildford, the three performing with <mask>'s band. The set list included a mix of Genesis songs, covers, and tracks from their solo careers. In 1998, members of Genesis reunited for a photo session and dinner to celebrate the release of the Genesis Archive 1967–75 box set.The release featured <mask> and Gabriel re-recording some guitar and vocal parts, respectively. <mask> also participated in the re-recording of "The Carpet Crawlers" from The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway for inclusion on the 1999 greatest hits album Turn It On Again: The Hits. In late 2005, the 1970–1975 line-up gathered to discuss the possibility of a reunion and performing The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway. After Gabriel decided against the idea, <mask> opted out of the project. This led to Banks, Rutherford, and Collins getting together in 2006 for the Turn It On Again: The Tour. <mask> took part in a series of interviews as part of the remastering of the band's discography in 2007, and the interview book Genesis: Chapter and Verse released in

In 2014, <mask> was featured in the BBC documentary Genesis: Together and Apart which focused on the band and the solo careers of the other members. <mask> expressed his displeasure with it following its broadcast, which he described as a "biased account of Genesis history" which "totally ignores" his solo work. <mask> was included in the compilation album R-Kive containing Genesis material and tracks from each member's solo career, his contributions are "Ace of Wands", "Every Day", and "Nomads". 1975–present: Solo career

1970s

In October 1975, <mask> released his first solo album, Voyage of the Acolyte. Its original title was Premonitions, but management at Charisma disliked it and suggested Voyage of the Acolyte, to which <mask> agreed. The album features Collins and Rutherford on drums and bass, respectively, and reached No.26 in the UK and was certified silver. <mask> enjoyed the freedom he had when writing and recording his own album, but was informed by Rutherford and Banks that he could not continue his solo career while in Genesis. Part of one of the album tracks, "Shadow of the Hierophant", was rehearsed by Genesis during the writing and recording of Foxtrot. Upon its release <mask> resumed working in Genesis. <mask>'s first post-Genesis album was Please Don't Touch!, released in 1978. As with Voyage of the Acolyte (1975), much of the material on the album was in the style of progressive rock. It did contain, however, much more vocal

 work.<mask>, who had never sung lead or backing vocals on a Genesis song, turned over most of the vocals to a number of singers, including folk singer Richie Havens, R&B singer Randy Crawford, and <mask> of American progressive rock group Kansas. He did provide lead vocals for "Carry on Up the Vicarage", but they were processed using a "laughing gnome" vocal effect. The album peaked at no. 38 on the UK chart, and no. 103 on the Billboard pop Albums chart in the United States. Having released two albums, <mask> was faced with the task of assembling a band to perform the material live. This became a group with <mask> on flute, bass pedals, and guitar, Dik Cadbury on bass and vocals, Nick Magnus on keyboards, John Shearer on drums, and Pete Hicks on lead vocals.The subsequent European tour was <mask>'s first as a solo performer. It began at the Chateau Neuf in Oslo, Norway on 4 October 1978 and ended with six shows across the UK, culminating at the Hammersmith Apollo in London on 30 October. <mask> used his band on his next album, Spectral Mornings, recorded in the first two months of 1979 in the Netherlands. The album contains various musical styles, including straightforward and progressive rock, folk, and a wider range of instruments such as a Cantonese koto. It reached No. 22 in the UK and No. 138 in the US.The supporting tour included a spot at the Reading Festival in August 1979. <mask> looked back on this period, and the atmosphere within the group, as a hard working and positive one. 1980s
Before <mask> recorded his fourth album Defector, he organised a series of gigs in November 1979, including one in London at the Theatre Royal, Drury Lane, to test out new material. <mask> found the

Upon its release Defector peaked the UK chart at No. 9, which remains his highest charting album in the country. In the US, the album went to No.144. The album's tour saw <mask> perform his first solo dates in the US. The tour left <mask> exhausted, and recuperated in Brazil where he spent three months working on new songs. <mask> changed musical directions with his fifth album, Cured (1981). It was recorded without his band which he had worked with since 1979, barring contributions from Magnus and <mask>, and features <mask> handling all the lead vocals. Instead of using a drummer, Magnus used an electronic Linn drum machine. Although it contained tracks in a progressive rock and classical style for which <mask> was known for, it also showcased a more pop-oriented approach.Released in August 1981, Cured peaked at No. 15 in the UK and No. 169 in the US. The album's tour marked a line-up change with <mask> and Magnus joined by Chas Cronk on bass and Ian Mosley on drums. The tour for Cured saw the band perform at the 1981 Reading Festival. After promoting Cured, <mask> received an invitation to form a new trio with Keith Emerson and Jack Bruce, shortly followed by an offer to replace Paul Jones and become lead in a new West End musical production. He declined both offers, and went ahead with his next studio album, Highly Strung, put out in April 1983.It would be his last release on Charisma, as growing differences over <mask>'s direction, plus management resisting to release an acoustic or

In 1983, <mask> had secured a deal with Lamborghini Records which supported the release of his seventh album, Bay of Kings, containing classical guitar compositions. The album went to No. 70 in the UK. This was followed, in August 1984, with <mask> returning to rock music in his next release, Till We Have Faces.It demonstrated a merge of his guitar with influences of Brazilian percussion and world music. The album peaked at No. 54 in the UK. In 1985, <mask> formed the supergroup GTR with veteran Yes and Asia guitarist <mask>. The group released a gold-selling album, produced by Yes/Asia keyboardist Geoff Downes. The album included "When the Heart Rules the Mind", which hit number 14 on the Billboard Hot 100, the highest charting US single in <mask>'s career. <mask> soon left GTR over financial and management squabbles.<mask>'s main reason for ending GTR was the lack of funds to continue the project, and his growing desire to pursue a less mainstream career path. Among them included charity and film work, including a jingle for an airline. In 1986, <mask> also participated with former Yardbirds members Chris Dreja, Paul Samwell-Smith and Jim McCarty on their Box of Frogs project second album Strange Land together with Jimmy Page, Ian Dury and Graham Parker on tracks, "I Keep Calling", "20/20 Vision" and "Average". In 1987, <mask> contributed to the Genesis orchestral album We Know What We Like: The Music of Genesis, performed by the London Symphony Orchestra with arranger and conductor David Palmer.

Released in March 1988, his tour across Europe to promote the album was met with large and enthusiastic crowds which included gigs in Estonia, Russia, and the Soviet Union.In late 1989, <mask> was the helm of the charity single "Sailing", a cover of Rod Stewart's 1975 hit released under the name Rock Against Repatriation. It was to raise money and awareness of Asian groups that left the difficult conditions of their home but were refused entry into Western countries. Released as a single in 1990, the song included Brian May, the Moody Blues, Mike Rutherford, Phil Manzanera, and Godley & Creme. In the 1980s he also made a special appearance on Brazilian singer Ritchie's first album, named Voo de Coração (1983). He is co-author of the song "A Mulher Invisível" (1984), from the 2nd LP of the countryman living in Brazil and also played guitar on the track "Meantime" (a poem by Fernando Pessoa music by Ritchie) on the 4th LP of the artist, Loucura e Mágica (1987). 1990s

In 1992, <mask> resumed touring for the first time in six years, which also saw his return to activity in the US in several years. His reason for the prolonged absence was down to his involvement in various legal issues which prevented him from touring there.<mask> was pleased that his 1992 North American tour was well attended, and used it to test the strength of some new material that he had been working on to an audience, as well as to promote his first live album, Time Lapse. 1992 also saw the release of The Unauthorised Biography, a compilation album

He picked the show as a career highlight. In May 1993, <mask> released his tenth studio album, Guitar Noir. It includes the track "Walking Away from Rainbows", which lyrically dealt with <mask>'s career decision of leaving mainstream music and pursuing what he wishes. Shortly after its release <mask> considered the album "the most crucial thing I've ever done. It's been the thing I've most wanted to do as an album because I've been reduced to silence for so long."<mask> followed this with a blues album, Blues with a Feeling (1994), formed of covers and original material penned by him and his group. For his next album, <mask> decided to rework a selection of Genesis tracks with various guest musicians. This was released in 1996 as Genesis Revisited, which peaked at No. 95 in the UK. It includes "Déjà Vu", a track <mask> wrote with Peter Gabriel in 1973 during the Selling England by the Pound sessions that had remained unfinished. In retrospect, <mask> said that much of the album made him "wince", and that he can "hear the struggles". <mask> promoted the album with two shows in Tokyo in December 1996 with John Wetton, Chester Thompson, Ian McDonald, and Julian Colbeck.The concerts were recorded and filmed, later released as The Tokyo Tapes in 1998. In April 1997 he released the neo-classical influenced A Midsummer Night's Dream with accompaniments from the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra. It reached the top 10 UK classical chart.

In 2003, <mask> released To Watch the Storms, his first studio album in four years and his first completed in his new recording studio, Crown Studios. It also marked his return to progressive rock music, and unlike his several previous records the material was put together within three months.

In 1981, <mask> married Brazilian painter and jewellery artist Kim Poor, who designed many of his future album covers. They divorced in 2007, which led Poor to file a legal case against <mask>, claiming she was a joint owner of Stephen Hackett Ltd., which was where all future royalties from Genesis songs he had written and performed were paid into. In 2006, <mask> arranged for all royalties to be paid directly to him rather than the company, which Poor argued was in breach of their agreement and is entitled to a share of the money.Poor also challenged <mask>'s right to make new albums independently, causing further issues.

<mask> (November 10, 1792 – December 13, 1873) was an American attorney and appointed as judge of New York State courts. He was appointed as a Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States, serving from 1845 to 1872. He concurred on the 1857 Dred Scott decision, although for reasons different from Chief Justice Taney's. Early life
<mask> was born in Hebron, New York on November 10, 1792, the son of Scotch-Irish immigrants <mask> and his wife Jean McArthur. <mask>'s family was upper middle class, with a prosperous family farm. <mask> was educated in the public schools of Hebron, with an additional three years in private schooling for college preparation. He entered Middlebury College in Vermont.Upon graduation in 1813, <mask> decided on a legal career. He read law as an apprentice at the firm of John Savage and David Woods in Salem, New York. Two years later, Savage and Woods dissolved their practice. <mask> moved to Madison County to enter into partnership with Woods. <mask> received his license to practice law in 1817, and entered private practice in Cortland. He developed a very successful practice, specializing in real estate and commercial law. Career
<mask> was a presidential elector in 1820, voting for James Monroe and Daniel D. Tompkins.<mask> served as US Postmaster of Cortland from 1820 to 1823. In 1821, <mask> served as a delegate to the New York Constitutional Convention, as one of the "Bucktails" faction led by Martin van Buren. <mask> argued for expansion of suffrage and for restructuring the state judiciary. The revised constitution was adopted, and the state created eight new Circuit Courts. New York State judge

 Circuit Court of Appeals, beginning <mask>'s judicial career. He became noted for his work in admiralty and maritime law, and his decisions were rarely appealed. After eight years as a circuit court judge, <mask> was appointed in 1831 to the New York Supreme Court (then called the New York Supreme Court of Judicature) by Governor Enos Throop.In 1837, Governor William Marcy promoted him to the position of chief justice, succeeding John Savage. As a Justice of the New York Supreme Court, <mask> made his most notable decisions about commercial issues. But his ruling in the case of Jack v. Martin (1834), which touched New York state law in relation to the federal Fugitive Slave Act of 1793 and the Fugitive Slave Clause of the Constitution, may have foreshadowed his concurring opinion in Dred Scott. <mask> said that only the federal government had the right to legislate on the issue of fugitive slaves. In 1845, <mask> was an unsuccessful candidate for U.S. Senator in a special New York State Legislature election to fill the seat of Silas Wright. At that time the New York state Democrats were split between factions known as Barnburners and Hunkers, and <mask> was identified with the Hunkers.His Barnburner opponent, John Adams Dix, won the party's nomination and the Senate seat. Supreme Court
On February 4, 1845, <mask> was nominated by President John Tyler as an Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States, to fill the vacant seat of Smith Thompson. The unpopular Tyler had failed repeatedly to fill the Thompson vacancy, with the Whig-controlled Senate rejecting his earlier nominations of John C. Spencer, Reuben Walworth, Edward King, and John M. Read. Tyler's nomination of <mask> was a surprise,

 but proved to be a popular choice. <mask> was a highly respected chief justice on the New York Supreme Court, and had a reputation of staying out of partisan conflict. The Whigs found <mask> acceptable because, although he was a Democrat, he had a reputation as a careful and uncontroversial jurist. The Senate confirmed <mask>'s appointment on February 14, 1845, after just ten days.<mask> was the only Supreme Court Justice to be appointed by President Tyler. <mask> served as a Justice for 27 years, until his retirement on November 28, 1872. <mask> was a constitutionally conservative Democrat. He could also be described as a judicial minimalist, meaning he frequently took a moderate stance in cases offering a small, case-specific interpretation of the law, and placed a strong emphasis on precedent. While <mask> was a strong supporter of the Union, he often criticized President Lincoln's policies and did not believe that the Union could be saved in any worthwhile state through the use of force. While <mask> remained relatively non-partisan, he did side frequently with Chief Justice Roger B. Taney and Justice John Archibald Campbell. <mask> also rather frequently disagreed with Justice Benjamin Robbins Curtis.<mask> remained good friends with Chief Justice Taney throughout his lifetime. Pennsylvania v. Wheeling
One of <mask>'s most important opinions was in the case of Pennsylvania v. Wheeling and Belmont Bridge Company in 1855. The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania sued the builders of a suspension bridge over the Ohio River at Wheeling, Virginia (now West Virginia), chartered by Virginia. It said that the bridge obstructed the passage of steamboats, interfering with interstate commerce, and was therefore a public

 nuisance. The suit was litigated for six years and came before the Supreme Court three different times before <mask>'s opinion ended it. The Court found that the bridge did qualify as a public nuisance. Congress enacted a law authorizing the bridge at its current height.In its final ruling, written by <mask>, the Court deferred to the legislative branch, overruling its previous decision. It declared that the bridge was not an obstruction to interstate commerce. <mask> drew this conclusion stating, "So far, therefore, as this bridge created an obstruction to the free navigation of the river, in view of the previous acts of Congress, they are to be regarded as modified by this subsequent legislation; and, although it still may be an obstruction in fact, is not so in the contemplation of law." Hotchkiss v. <mask> was also the author of the well-known Hotchkiss v. Greenwood opinion in patent law. This opinion established the principle that obvious inventions should not be patentable, which has been a core doctrine of U.S. and international patent law ever since. Slavery and states rights
<mask> was one of the most prolific opinion writers of the Taney era, but few of his opinions and decisions concerned the most important constitutional questions of the day: slavery and states rights. In 1834 Mary Martin claimed that Jack "Martin", a black man in New York, was her slave in Louisiana.She filed suit for his return to Louisiana. Jack resisted, claiming that as both he and Mary Martin were currently residents of New York, he was free by New York law, which had abolished slavery. New York had separately passed a law related to procedure for the recovery of fugitive slaves. The Recorder of New York City had issued a

 certificate to recover Jack Martin, but also issued a writ of habeas corpus by his petition. The circuit court ruled for Ms. Martin, but the case was appealed to the New York Supreme Court. That court's ruling, written by <mask>, found that the power to legislate on the subject of the fugitive slave clause resided exclusively with Congress, and that the New York law was void. This position was upheld by the U.S. Supreme Court in Prigg v. Pennsylvania (1842).Dred Scott
In Dred Scott, <mask> was originally assigned to write the majority opinion. That opinion upheld the decision of the Missouri state court against Scott (in Scott v. Emerson), but on the narrow grounds of whether Scott was freed by his temporary residence in a free state. <mask>, avoiding controversy and partisanship as usual, did not address any of the other questions raised in the case, such as black citizenship and the constitutionality of the Missouri Compromise. While <mask> was preparing this opinion, Justices McLean and Curtis decided to write vehement dissenting opinions. Learning this, Chief Justice Taney, supported by the other southern Justices, decided to write a majority opinion asserting the southern view on those issues: that blacks could not be citizens and the Compromise's restrictions on slavery were unconstitutional. Despite this switch within the Court, <mask>'s views did not change. On March 6, 1857, the Court ruled 7–2 that Dred Scott and his family remained slaves.<mask> concurred in the decision. He issued a separate concurring opinion explaining his different reasoning. He wrote that the question of slavery is one that each state is responsible in deciding for itself, "either by its Legislature or courts of justice, and

 hence, in respect to the case before us, to the State of Missouri – a question exclusively of Missouri law, and which, when determined by that State, it is the duty of the Federal courts to follow it. In other words, except in cases where the power is restrained by the Constitution of the United States, the law of the State is supreme over the subject of slavery within its jurisdiction." Therefore, the Federal courts had no jurisdiction, and the appeal should be dismissed with no further discussion. While his reasoning was different from Taney's, he upheld the ruling that Dred Scott was still enslaved. <mask> was a northern Democrat and a Unionist, and was said to be inclined to anti-slavery views.Before the Civil War, <mask> worked to reach a compromise to prevent a war. In the winter of 1861 <mask> joined Justice John Campbell as intermediaries between southern secessionists and President-elect Lincoln. Even after the fighting started, he tried to find a compromise. <mask> was distressed at this failure. Although staunchly opposed to war and critical of many of Lincoln's policies, he remained loyal to the Union. Prize Cases
One of <mask>'s more noted opinions was his dissent issued in the Prize Cases. President Lincoln had declared a blockade of ports in states that had declared secession, to be enforced by the Navy.Navy ships captured blockade runners, which were seized as prizes under admiralty law. The owners sued for return of their ships, claiming that the blockade was illegal because the President did not have the constitutional authority to declare it. In 1863, the Court, by vote of 5 to 4, found that the blockade was constitutional. <mask> wrote the dissenting opinion, joined by Chief Justice

 Taney and Justices Catron and Clifford. He asserted that blockading ports and confiscating enemy property were war powers, and under international law could be exercised only after a formal declaration of war. <mask> wrote that "war cannot lawfully be commenced on the part of the United States without an act of Congress, such act is, of course, a formal notice to all the world, and equivalent to the most solemn declaration." Therefore, the blockade of southern ports by President Lincoln was unconstitutional.<mask> was widely criticized for this opinion. After the war <mask> urged the administration to reduce the penalties on the defeated South. <mask>'s loyalty to the Union was questioned because of his positions. Later career
In 1871, President Ulysses S. Grant appointed <mask> to serve on the joint high commission to arbitrate the Alabama Claims. During this time he took a leave of absence from the bench. Soon thereafter, <mask> became ill. He resigned from the commission in 1872, shortly before his death.Personal life
In 1819 <mask> married Pamela Woods, the daughter of David Woods and his wife. They had two children before her death. In 1825, the widower married again, to Catharine Ann Russell (1805–1875), a daughter of U.S. Representative John Russell. He brought his two children to the marriage and had six children with Catharine. His fourth child with Catharine, son Rensselaer <mask> (1826–1904), became an attorney. He was appointed as the first United States District Court Judge for the District of Minnesota. <mask> died in Cooperstown, New York, on December 13, 1873.He was buried at Cooperstown's Lakewood Cemetery.

He was elected as a Greek MEP at the May 2014 European Parliament election. He was also the president of the Hellenic Football Federation from March to September 2021. Club career

Kavala

<mask> was a central midfielder who could also play on the right side of midfield. He started his career with Kavala, the club that also produced Zisis Vryzas, with whom he became close friends.He was an important part of helping the team get into the Greek Second Division. He had six goals and 114 appearances for Kavala before being transferred in 1992 to PAOK. PAOK

In the 1992–93 season, <mask> left Kavala as a winter transfer to join PAOK, part of a string of star transfers made that season. He played for PAOK until December 1997, and also captained the squad in his last two seasons. He rarely missed a league derby and scored important goals, particularly in 1994–95 when he struck four, his best-ever tally. Leicester City

<mask> left for English club Leicester City the following winter and signed for Martin O'Neill's side in 1998. While in England, he took part in two consecutive League Cup finals at Wembley Stadium, losing the first against Tottenham Hotspur in 1999 and defeating Tranmere Rovers in the second, though he was an unused substitute in the latter.<mask> will always be fondly known by Leicester fans for his sheer determination in midfield and also his goalkeeping cameo against Crystal Palace (in a 3–3 first leg League Cup draw), where he went in goal after Pegguy Arphexad and then Tim Flowers went off injured. AEK Athens

Zagorakis was disappointed with Leicester manager Martin O'Neill's reluctance to use him regularly and decided to return to Greece in 2000. He moved to AEK Athens, and played alongside fellow countrymen such as

 Michalis Kapsis, Vassilis Lakis, Demis Nikolaidis and Vassilios Tsiartas. With AEK, Zagorakis won the Greek Cup in 2002 against rivals Olympiacos. Zagorakis, during his last season in AEK, has accepted a reduced pay-off which is reported to be £220,000. "He showed he genuinely has the club's best interests at heart and is free to take up any of the great offers from teams abroad," said a club statement. Bologna

On 14 July 2004, he left AEK Athens for Bologna, signing a two-year contract worth €1.5 million per year.<mask>–who was voted player of the tournament in Portugal–was released by AEK Athens and joined Bologna on a Bosman free transfer. "Zagorakis is our Greek Baggio", Bologna owner Giuseppe Gazzoni Frascara told the newspaper. In 2004–05, <mask> was a regular feature in the squad, but the team found itself relegated to Serie B after a play-out series against Parma. In the following summer, he was released from the team as they couldn't afford his payroll under the new conditions. Return to PAOK

The Player of the Tournament at UEFA Euro 2004 will arrive in Thessaloniki to sign the deal with PAOK. The midfielder was released by Bologna following the Italian team's relegation from Serie A, and rejoins one of his old clubs. <mask> eventually signed a two-year contract with PAOK for €700,000 a year.When Zagorakis landed at Makedonia Airport in Thessaloniki, 7,000 supporters were there to welcome him back.

 longest-serving captain. <mask> played an important role in Greece's win in the 2004 European Championships, and was named the Player of the Tournament by UEFA and consequently he was in the Team of the Tournament.FIFA named Zagorakis as a contender for the 2004 FIFA World Player of the Year award (he finished in 17th place alongside Spain's and Real Madrid's legend, Raúl), as well as UEFA named him for the 2004 Ballon d'Or award (he finished in fifth place), behind the likes of Ronaldinho (third place) and Thierry Henry (fourth place). He holds the record of most consecutive matches (57) (except one in 2006 because of injury) of the national team (due to either injury or not selection) since his first cap in a period of 12 years. After 12 full playing years as the captain for Greece, <mask> announced his retirement from international football on 5 October 2006. More specifically, Greece captain was considering retiring after his team's European championship qualifier against Norway in Athens on 2 October 2006, has also been called up for the match against Bosnia four days later, officials said. On 22 August 2007, however, he played for the last time with the national side, in a special friendly match against Spain in Toumba Stadium, Salonica. He played for about 15 minutes and was then replaced by Giannis Goumas, receiving an applause by fans singing his name. PAOK presidency

On 28 May 2007, after the fifth Greek Superleague All-Star Game, <mask> announced his retirement from professional football.After many widespread rumours, it was announced that he was to become PAOK's new president, on 18 June. The club had been in dire financial straits for several years. Zagorakis undertook to sort out finances by attracting investors, increasing revenue and mobilising the club's fan base. In his unifying first statement he said: "The strength of PAOK lies in its supporters, its fans...I would have not made this decision" (to retire from playing and assume administration) "if i did not love my club.

 for PAOK is very difficult and I will not try to hide its problems; instead I will do all I can to solve the pressing financial issues." Soon he set about restructuring the club's debt and team, and recruited former teammate Zisis Vryzas as technical director. As of late 2008, PAOK has been able to pay off most of its accumulated debt, seen a steady increase in ticket sales and advertising revenue, and team performance on the field has improved considerably, under the coaching of Portuguese manager Fernando Santos.On 15 December 2008, Zagorakis announced a major issue of new stock by the club, valued at €22.3 million. He appealed to small investors and stated that, although it is unlikely that the entire sum could be covered in a worldwide crisis environment, he felt confident that the expected influx of capital would enable PAOK finally to put its past problems behind and focus on future growth. On 8 October 2009, Zagorakis surprised fans and press alike by announcing his decision to quit the presidency. In a short announcement on the club's official website, he cited that personal problems have led him to this decision. He was rapidly replaced by his close friend Zisis Vryzas. Nevertheless, he kept close contact with his former associates, and also frequently attended the club's home games alongside Vryzas. Zagorakis finally changed his mind and on 20 January he reprised his position as president, with Vryzas stepping down to assume the post of vice-president.In January 2012 <mask> resigned as president after the sale of Vieirinha for financial reasons provoked a supporters' protest.

François Laurent d'Arlandes and he made the first manned free balloon flight on 21 November 1783, in a Montgolfier balloon. He later died when his balloon crashed near Wimereux in the Pas-de-Calais during an attempt to fly across the English Channel. His companion, Pierre Romain, and he thus became the first known fatalities in an air crash. Early life
He was born in Metz, the third son of Magdeleine Wilmard and Mathurin Pilastre, known as "<mask>", a former soldier who became an innkeeper. His interests in the chemistry of drugs had been awakened in the military hospital of Metz, an important garrison town on the border of France. He made his way to Paris at the age of 18, then taught physics and chemistry at the Academy in Reims, which brought him to the attention of the Comte <mask>, brother of King Louis XVI.He returned to Paris, where he was put in charge of Monsieur's cabinet of natural history and made a valet de chambre to Monsieur's wife, Madame, which brought him his ennobled name, <mask> <mask>. He opened his own museum in the Marais quarter of Paris on 11 December 1781, where he undertook experiments in physics, and provided demonstrations to nobles. He researched the new field of gases, and invented a respirator. Flight pioneer

In June 1783, he witnessed the first public demonstration of a balloon by the Montgolfier brothers. On 19 September, he assisted with the untethered flight of a sheep, a cockerel, and a

French King Louis XVI decided that the first manned flight would contain two condemned criminals, but <mask> enlisted the help of the Duchess <mask> Polignac to support his view that the honour of becoming first balloonists should belong to someone of higher status, and the Marquis <mask> agreed to accompany him. The king was persuaded to permit <mask> and <mask> to become the first pilots.After several tethered tests to gain some experience of controlling the balloon, <mask> and d'Arlandes made their first untethered flight in a Montgolfier hot air balloon on 21 November 1783, taking off at around 2 pm from the garden of the Château de la Muette in the Bois de Boulogne, in the presence of the king. Their 25-minute flight travelled slowly about 5½ miles (some 9 km) to the southeast, attaining an altitude of 3,000 feet, before returning to the ground at the Butte-aux-Cailles, then on the outskirts of Paris. Along with Joseph Montgolfier, he was one of six passengers on a second flight on 19 January 1784, with a huge Montgolfier balloon Le Flesselles launched from Lyon. Four French nobles paid for the trip, including a prince. Several difficulties had to be overcome. The wallpaper used to cover the balloon's envelope became wet because of extreme weather conditions. The top of the balloon was made of sheep- or buckskin.The air was heated by wood in an iron stove: to start, the straw was set on fire with brandy. (In other tests, charcoal or potatoes were used).

That evening, the aeronauts were celebrated after listening to Gluck's opera, Iphigénie en Tauride. <mask> took part in a further flight on 23 June 1784, in a modified version of the Montgolfiers' first balloon christened La Marie-Antoinette after the queen, which took off in front of the King of France and King Gustav III of Sweden. Together with Joseph Proust, the balloon flew north at an altitude about 3,000 metres, above the clouds.They travelled 52 km in 45 minutes before cold and turbulence forced them to descend past Luzarches, between Coye et Orry-la-Ville, near the Chantilly forest. They set records for speed, altitude, and distance travelled. Final flight
<mask>'s next plan was an attempt to cross the English Channel from France to England. A Montgolfier balloon would not be up to the task, requiring large stocks of fuel for the hot air, so his balloon, the Rozière balloon, was a combination of a hydrogen and hot air balloon. It was prepared in the autumn of 1784, but the attempt was not launched until after another Frenchman, Jean-Pierre Blanchard, and his American companion, Dr. John Jeffries, flew across the channel in a hydrogen gas balloon from England to France on 7 January 1785. Despite several attempts, <mask> and his companion Pierre Romain were not able to set off from Boulogne-sur-Mer until 15 June 1785. After making some progress, a

Both occupants were killed. Eight days later, his former fiancée died, possibly having committed suicide. A commemorative obelisk was later erected at the site of the crash. The King had a medal struck and gave his family a pension. The modern hybrid gas and hot air balloon is named the Rozière balloon after his pioneering design. See also

Soon after the storyline saw Billy Boy committed to a mental institution. On May 28, 2008 <mask> <mask> defeated Ayako Hamada and <mask> to win the 2008 Reina de Reinas tournament. Following <mask>'s win the Reina de Reinas trophy was turned into a regular wrestling championship represented by a title belt, instead of the annual tournament it had been between 1999 and 2008. During 2008 she started a feud with her older sister <mask>, due to tension from the Billy Boy storyline. On June 13, 2008, at Triplemanía XVI <mask> <mask> defeated her sister in a Lucha de Apuesta, hair vs. hair match.

During a television taping on March 21, 2010 Aero Star came to the ring and asked <mask>'s permission to ask <mask> <mask> out, which led to Billy Boy storming to the ring and attacking Aero Star. The storyline evolved and saw all four involved in an inter-gender Lucha de Apueta Steel Cage Match where the last person in the ring would either have their hair shaved off or be forced to unmask. The match came down to <mask> <mask> and Billy Boy in the cage with <mask> <mask> pinning Billy. Following the Apuesta loss the storyline has focused more on <mask> <mask> and Sexi Star than Billy Boy. Following the Apuesta loss the storyline began to focus more on the rivalry between <mask> <mask> and Sexy Star and less on Billy Boy. The two faced off in a "Bull Terrier" match for Faby <mask>'s AAA Reina de Reinas Championship during AAA's Heroes Inmortales III event, in which Sexy Star defeated <mask> <mask> due to the interference of La Legión Extranjera members Jennifer Blade and Rain.In the time following the title victory Sexy Star became a member of La Legión, making her the only Mexican female in the group. The storyline between Sexy Star and <mask> <mask> continued at the 2009 Guerra de Titanes where Sexy Star defeated <mask> <mask> in a Lucha de Apuesta match, in no small part thanks to the interference of La Legión.

In October 1909, he was appointed president of GTR, which also gave him control of its subsidiary railroad and steamship companies.These included the Central Vermont Railway, the Grand Trunk Western Railway, the Grand Haven and Milwaukee Railway, the Detroit and Toledo Shoreline Railroad, the Toledo, Saginaw and Muskegon Railway, the Southern New England Railway Company, the Canadian Express Company, and several others. In addition, he was sought after to help manage several philanthropies. He was Governor of the Royal Victoria Hospital, Montreal, Montreal General Hospital and McGill University. He received the Order of the Rising Sun, third class, from the Emperor of Japan in 1907 for assistance he gave the Imperial Government Railways. When <mask> became General Manager of GTR in 1896, it was near bankruptcy and under-performing its rival, the Canadian Pacific Railway (CPR). On the advice of American financier J. Pierpont Morgan, the GTR board selected <mask> as General Manager to bring more aggressive, "American" business practices to the company. He reorganized the management of the company and successfully negotiated running rights with CPR.He also brought more efficiency to the handling of accounts, built new track and ordered more powerful locomotives. These changes produced an era of greater success for the railroad. Transcontinental Railway

At the time, the western prairies were being rapidly settled. <mask> wanted to capitalize on the trend by constructing a transcontinental railroad, within the borders of Canada, to run 3,600 miles from Moncton, New Brunswick, to Prince Rupert, British Columbia. In 1900, he introduced a proposal to extend the

Later that year, <mask> left GTR to work for Southern Pacific, but a change in ownership there lead to his resignation.He returned to the GTR to find that the president, Sir <mask> Wilson, had convinced the Board of Directors to pursue the transcontinental railway. Meanwhile, the government, under Sir Wilfrid Laurier, had also decided to back the project. Plans to construct the transcontinental line were announced on November 24, 1902. <mask>' plan involved the creation of a subsidiary line from Winnipeg to Prince Rupert, with the government building the line from New Brunswick to Winnipeg. The cabinet became weary of <mask>' demands for subsidies, but after negotiations between the government and Hays, aided by the railroad's president Rivers Wilson, the National Transcontinental Railway Act was passed in 1903. It enabled the incorporation of the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway (GTP). The government's portion of the line would be called the National Transcontinental Railway (NTR).There were problems with some of <mask>' policies regarding the GTP. Firstly, he had planned to buy out the Canadian Northern Railway (CNoR), but the company resisted and instead provided competition. Secondly, <mask> lacked support from the Board of Directors in London; he wanted to link the GTR with the GTP, but the board would not back this plan. He thus proceeded on his own authority, making commitments that would ultimately ruin both the GTP and the GTR. Thirdly, <mask> faced opposition to his choice of Prince Rupert, on Kaien Island, B.C., for the western terminal, because there was not much traffic there. <mask> preferred the location as he believed it would provide a shorter route for transshipment to destinations in Asia. <mask> made the construction of the mainline his priority, failing to develop feeder
