Ultimately, however, the race was red-flagged after just two laps under the safety car, resulting in a result of 20th place, although later promoted to 19th due to a penalty to Lance Stroll. At the Turkish Grand Prix, he finished third to score another podium finish. At the United States Grand Prix, Perez had one of his most competitive weekends of the season, out-qualifying the Mercedes of Valtteri Bottas and starting 3rd behind teammate Verstappen and the other Mercedes of Lewis Hamilton, before finishing in the same position, albeit over 42 seconds behind eventual winner Verstappen, due to a drinks failure on the first lap. In his home race in Mexico, <mask> took his third consecutive podium, for the first time in his career. In the closing stages of the race, he was able to pressure Lewis Hamilton for 2nd place, but he was unable to pass Hamilton before the chequered flag.<mask> is due to stay at Red Bull for the 2022 season.

title: Nicolas Gombert

texts:
<mask> (c. 1495 – c. 1560) was a Franco-Flemish composer of the Renaissance. He was one of the most famous and influential composers between Josquin des Prez and Palestrina, and best represents the fully developed, complex polyphonic style of this period in music history. Life
Details of his early life are sketchy, but he was probably born around 1495 in southern Flanders, probably between Lille and Saint-Omer, possibly in the town of La Gorgue. German writer and music theorist Hermann Finck wrote that Gombert studied with Josquin; this would have been during the renowned composer's retirement in Condé-sur-l'Escaut, sometime between 1515 and 1521. Gombert was employed by the emperor Charles V as a singer in his court chapel in 1526 and possibly as a composer as well. Most likely he was taken on while Charles was passing through Flanders, for the emperor traveled often, bringing his retinue with him, and picking up new members as he went. A document dated 1529 mentions Gombert as magister puerorum ("master of the boys") for the royal chapel.He and the singers went with the emperor on his travels throughout his holdings, leaving records of their appearances in various cities of the empire. These visits were musically influential, in part because of Gombert's stature as a musician; thus the travels of Charles and his chapel, as did those of his predecessor Philip I of Castile with composer

 capitano Ferrante I Gonzaga. The Magnificat settings preserved uniquely in manuscript in Madrid are often held to have been the "swansongs" that according to Cardan won his pardon; according to this story, Charles was so moved by these Magnificat settings that he let Gombert go early. An alternative hypothesis (Lewis 1994) is that Cardan was referring to the highly penitential First Book of four-part motets; however, in neither case is it clear how Gombert was able to compose while rowing in the galleys as a prisoner. It is not known how long Gombert lived after his pardon or what positions, if any, he held; his career faded into relative obscurity after he was freed. He may have retired to Tournai, spending the final years of his life as canon there.Bracketing dates for his probable death are 1556 and 1561; in the former year Finck mentioned that he was still living, and in 1561 Cardan wrote that he was dead, without giving details. Music and style
Adrian Willaert and <mask> are generally recognized as the exemplars of the late Franco-Flemish school, before the center of Renaissance art-music moved to Italy. A Fleming, Willaert relocated to Italy and along with the originally Flemish composer Orlando di Lasso brought the Franco-Flemish style of simultaneously dense and lyrical counterpoint to Italy. Like Willaert, Gombert brought the polyphonic style to its highest state of perfection;


title: Nicolas Gombert

texts:
 secular compositions – mostly chansons – are less contrapuntally complex than his motets and masses, but more so than the majority of contemporary secular pieces, especially the 'Parisian' chanson. During the middle of the sixteenth century, Gombert received credit for several of the Parisian chansons, but later studies have discovered that he was not the sole '<mask>' of those secular pieces but many were actually by <mask> La Grotte or <mask>. Authors of the texts used in many chansons, a genre in which Gombert excelled, were mostly anonymous. He turned to older verse, often of a folkish type, with typical subject matter including unhappy love, farewells, separations, infidelities and the like. Many of these chansons appeared in lute and vihuela arrangements, with their wide geographical distribution showing their immense popularity. His surviving works include 10 masses, about 140 motets, about 70 chansons, a canción (probably written when he was in Spain), a madrigal, and a handful of instrumental pieces.Influence
<mask> was one of the most renowned composers in Europe after the death of Josquin des Prez, as can be seen by the wide distribution of his music, the use of his music as source material for compositions by others, including Roland de Lassus and Claudio Monteverdi. Printers paid singular attention to him, issuing for example, editions consisting solely of his works – most

texts:
 print editions at the time were anthologies of music by several composers. Although highly admired by his contemporaries, the next generation of Franco-Flemish composers mostly wrote in a more simplified style. Part of this was an inevitable stylistic reaction to a contrapuntal idiom which had reached an extreme, and part of this was due to the specific dictates of the Council of Trent, which required that text be understandable in sacred, especially liturgical, music – something which is next to impossible for a composer to achieve in a dense imitative texture. While most composers of the next generation did not continue to write vocal music using Gombert's method of pervasive imitation, they continued to use this contrapuntal texture in instrumental works. Forms such as the canzona and ricercar are directly descended from the vocal style of Gombert; Baroque forms and processes such as the fugue are later descendants. Gombert's music represents one of the extremes of contrapuntal complexity ever attained in purely vocal music.Recordings

texts: <mask> (; born 28 August 1983), nicknamed "<mask>", is a Sri Lankan former cricketer who is widely regarded as one of the greatest limited overs bowlers of all time. <mask> captained the Sri Lankan 2014 T20 World Cup winning side and he is the highest wicket taker in IPL and is the only bowler to take 4 wickets in 4 balls twice in international cricket. <mask> is a right-arm fast bowler that is commonly used as a specialist death bowler, and is well known for his distinctive round-arm action, sometimes referred to as a sling action, hence his aforementioned nickname. <mask> announced his retirement from all forms of cricket on 14 September 2021. <mask>'s unorthodox action and dipping slower ball yorkers are credited with much of his success. He changed the dynamics and landscape of death bowling in limited overs cricket by bowling his toe crushing yorkers. He is best known for his ability to take consecutive wickets, with in-swinging yorkers: he is the only bowler in the world to have two World Cup hat-tricks, first bowler to take a double hatrick, the only bowler to have taken three hat-tricks in ODIs and only bowler to have two double hatricks.He is also the first bowler to take five hat-tricks across all formats of international cricket, and holds the record for most hat-tricks in international cricket.

 In September 2019, during the series against New Zealand, <mask> became the first bowler to take 100 wickets in Twenty20 International cricket. <mask> took a hat-trick to become the first bowler to claim two T20I hat-tricks, and four wickets in four balls, in the third over of his spell, while becoming the second bowler in the world to take four wickets in four consecutive balls in T20I history after Rashid Khan during the process. In January 2021, he retired from T20 franchise cricket.In September 2021, <mask> announced his retirement from all forms of cricket. He is also currently the highest wicket taker in IPL with 170 wickets in 122 matches. Early years
<mask> grew up in modest circumstances in Rathgama, a coastal village situated 12 km northwest of Galle. He often played cricket with friends on the sand banks and coconut groves by a river in his cricket-obsessed village. His father Separamadu Milton, is a retired bus mechanic who worked out of the Galle depot. He had his education at three schools, namely Mahinda College, Galle; Vidyaloka College, Galle and Vidyathilake Vidyalaya, Thiranagama. <mask> had his primary education at Vidyathilake Vidyalaya in Thiranagama, a school situated near by his village.He married Tanya Perera in 2010. After passing the grade 5 Scholarship Examination in 1993, he entered Vidyaloka College, Galle for his secondary education, where he started his cricket career. Here <mask> was discovered by former Sri Lankan paceman Champaka Ramanayake. Champaka, so impressed by <mask>'s raw ability, invited him to join the Galle Cricket

 Club. Champaka also helped him to join the first XI cricket team of Mahinda College, Galle. Joining Mahinda College was the turning point of his cricket career and he was helped by some of its distinguished Old boys. A short-lived attempt to make <mask>'s action more upright led to much reduced pace and failing accuracy.Malinga promptly returned to his natural action with success, and with great encouragement from Ramanayake. He didn’t pick up hard-ball cricket until relatively in his teenage but his talent was discovered by fast bowling coaches Champaka Ramanayake and Anusha Samaranayake. Both of them brought him to the domestic system and nurtured him during his early years. International career

Debut years

<mask> made his Test debut on 1 July 2004 against Australia at Marrara Oval In Darwin. He was immediately successful, taking six wickets in the match (Darren Lehmann twice, Adam Gilchrist, Damien Martyn, Shane Warne and Michael Kasprowicz) He was impressed by the friendliness of the Australian team in general, and in particular Adam Gilchrist who sought him out after the game to present him with one of the match stumps in the Sri Lankan dressing room. <mask> made his ODI debut in Sri Lanka's opening match of the 2004 Asia Cup against the United Arab Emirates, becoming the 123rd player to do so. Easily winning the match by 116 runs, <mask> took the wicket of the Emirati captain, Khurram Khan to finish the match with figures of 1/39.Since then he has become a regular member on the ODI squad.

 a regular member of both their Test and One Day International sides. He has earned a reputation for troubling batsmen with his lively pace and well-directed bouncer. He regularly bowls at speeds between  and sometimes slightly faster. As time went by he started to lose pace, clocking around . His slower off cutter was also menacing. He burst onto the test scene after ripping through the New Zealand top order, helping Sri Lanka draw the test series on their 2006/07 tour of New Zealand.He announced his retirement from Test cricket on 22 April 2011 in order to prolong his career in ODI and T20 cricket.

In the final two balls of the over he cleaned bowled Shaun Pollock and had Andrew Hall caught at cover. In his next over, he removed Jacques Kallis caught behind then bowled Makhaya Ntini. This was only the fifth hat-trick in World Cup history, the third ODI hat-trick for Sri Lanka and the 24th overall in ODIs. He nearly took the final wicket as a ball shaved the stumps.Despite <mask>'s lethal spell, however, South Africa proceeded to win the match by 1 wicket with 10 balls still left. He was named in the 'Team of the Tournament' by Cricinfo for the 2007 World Cup. During the 2011 Cricket World Cup, <mask> took

<mask> is an American DJ and record producer from Lake Orion, Michigan. His DJ work focuses on house and techno, while he has produced on the Wolf + Lamb, Crosstown Rebels and Circus Company labels, collaborating with artists Art Department, Deetron, Tiefschwarz, Matthew Dear and Subb-an. Troxler draws upon the musical heritage of Detroit and Chicago and his influences include Richie Hawtin and Moodymann. He is one of the founders of the record label Visionquest, as well as head of labels Tuskegee, Soft Touch and Play It, Say It. He also owns a restaurant in East London called Smokey Tails. Early life
Troxler was born on September 29, 1985, in Kalamazoo, Michigan. His parents split up when he was two years old and his step-father hosted a local radio show in his home town.As a boy, Troxler used to listen to his step-father's radio show in the studio. Such early exposure to early house music and hip hop paved the way for <mask> to begin his career as a DJ. When <mask> was fourteen years old, his family moved to the outskirts of Detroit, where he involved himself in the musical heritage of the city. In the 90s, Troxler went to underground techno raves, and shortly after threw his own underground parties – notably booking Magda to play for him when he was only fifteen years old. Around the same time, he landed a job as a techno buyer in the record store ‘Melodies & Memories’ 23013 Gratiot, Eastpointe Michigan, just a few block north of 9 mile, working alongside Reggie Harrell and Terrence Parker. His sound was influenced by underground

<mask> (born January 18, 1939 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin) is an American evolutionary ecologist, and conservationist. He divides his time between his professorship in biology at the University of Pennsylvania, where he is the DiMaura Professor of Conservation Biology, and his research and field work in Costa Rica. Janzen and his wife <mask>chs have catalogued the biodiversity of Costa Rica. Through a DNA barcoding initiative with geneticist <mask>, they have registered over 500,000 specimens representing more than 45,000 species, which has led to the identification of cryptic species of near-identical appearance that differ in terms of genetics and ecological niche. They helped to establish the Area de Conservación Guanacaste World Heritage Site, one of the oldest, largest and most successful habitat restoration projects in the world. Early life and education
<mask> was born January 18, 1939 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. His father, <mask>, grew up in a Mennonite farming community and served as Director of the United States Fish and Wildlife Service.His father and  mother, Miss Floyd Clark Foster of Greenville, South Carolina, were married on April 29, 1937. Janzen obtained his B.Sc. degree in biology from the University of Minnesota, in 1961, and his Ph.D. from the University of California, Berkeley in 1965. Career
In 1963, Janzen attended a two-month course in tropical biology taught in several field sites throughout Costa Rica. This Advanced Science Seminar in Tropical Biology was the precursor to a Fundamentals in Tropical Biology course, which Janzen designed for the Organization for Tropical Studies (OTS), a consortium of several North American and Costa Rican universities. Janzen went back in 1965 as an instructor and has lectured in at least one of the three yearly courses every year since. Janzen taught at the University of Kansas

 (1965–1968), the University of Chicago (1969–1972) and at the University of Michigan (1972–1976) before joining the faculty at the University of Pennsylvania.There he is the DiMaura Professor of Conservation Biology, and his research and field work in Costa Rica. Janzen has also held teaching positions in Venezuela (Universidad de Oriente, Cumaná in 1965–66; Universidad de los Los Andes, Mérida in 1973), and in Puerto Rico (Universidad de Puerto Rico, Río Piedras, 1969). Research
Janzen's early work focused on the careful and meticulous documentation of species in Costa Rica, and in particular on ecological processes and the dynamics and evolution of animal-plant interactions. In 1967, for example he described the phenological specialization of bee-pollinated species of Bignoniaceae, amongst them a "kind of mass flowering", which Alwyn <mask> in his classification of flowering named Type 4 or "big bang" strategy. Miguel Altieri in his textbook Agroecology: The Science of Sustainable Agriculture says: "<mask>'s 1973 article on tropical agroecosystems was the first widely read evaluation of why tropical agricultural systems might function differently from those of the temperate zones". In 1985, realizing that the area in which they worked was threatened, <mask> and <mask>chs expanded the focus of their work to include tropical forest restoration, expansion (through land purchases) and conservation. They employed the help of local Costa Ricans, converting their farming skills into parataxonomy, a term they coined in the late 1980s.As of 2017, some 10,000 new species in the Area de Conservacion Guanacaste have been identified thanks to the efforts of parataxonomists. Through a DNA barcoding initiative with geneticist <mask>, they have registered over 500,000 specimens representing more than 45,000 species, which has led to the identification of

 cryptic species of near-identical appearance that differ in terms of genetics and ecological niche. Janzen and <mask>wachs have supported species barcoding initiatives at both national and international levels through the Instituto Nacional de Biodiversidad (INBio), CBOL (Consortium for the Barcode of Life) and iBOL (International Barcode of Life). Coevolution of plants and animals
 Coevolution of a mutualistic system in New World tropics between species of Acacia (Mimosoideae; Leguminosae), v. gr., Acacia cornigera, and the ant Pseudomyrmex ferruginea (Formicidae). Acacia spp in the Neotropics are protected by ants against defoliation; for this, the ants are rewarded by means of special organs and physiology that Acacia has evolved. Spondias mombin (Anacardiaceae) lost its megafauna seed dispersers in the Pleistocene.Between fire in open pastures and seed predation by bruchid beetles in closed-canopy forest, S. mombin does not stand a chance. But, today, in Guanacaste, seeds are dispersed by White-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) and some 15 other mammals, that feed mostly in forest edges, where bruchids are less likely to find the seeds and fires are not so frequent. Tropical habitat restoration
Tropical dry forests are the world's most threatened forest ecosystems. In middle America there were 550 000 km2 of dry forests at the beginning of the 16th century; today, less than 0.08% (440 km2 ) remains. They have been cleared, burnt and replaced by pastures for cattle raising, at an ever-faster rate during the last 500 years. In 1985, realizing that widespread development in northwestern Costa Rica was rapidly decimating the forest in which they conducted their research, <mask> and <mask>wachs  expanded the focus of their work. <mask> and his wife helped to establish the Area de Conservación Guanacaste World Heritage Site (ACG), one of the

Personal life
Of his research partner and wife, Winifred <mask>,  Janzen says "We did these things together," and "we are very much together in perceiving things the same things....Since I'm the vocal member, it's then attributed to me.But I would say these ideas and directions and thoughts and actions are easily fifty-fifty attributable." Honorary distinctions
Janzen has been subject to recognition many times in the US, as well as in Europe and Latin America; the monetary endowments of these prizes have been invested in the trust fund of the ACG or another of his conservation's projects in Costa Rica; amongst the 19 prizes and distinctions, the following are the most important:

<mask>Lotta" <mask> (born 20 May 1966) is a Swedish professional golfer. When she recorded her first LPGA Tour win, by claiming the 1988 U.S. Women's Open title, <mask> also became the first Swedish golfer, male or female, to win a major championship. Early years
<mask> was born and grew up in Finspång, Sweden. Her father Rune was a former football player and coach of a local girls football team. After practicing different sports and supported by her father, her mother Ingegerd and her brother Mats, <mask> began playing golf at the local 9-hole course at Finspång Golf Club. She showed early promise and won the unofficial national youth championships, Colgate Cup, at three different levels, as a 12, 14, and 16-year-old. <mask> has later given a lot of credit, for her successful career, to her local coach since her early years, Pierre Karlström.<mask> also has showed her loyalty to her first golf club by, three times during the peak of her career in the 1990s, inviting some of the female golf stars of the world, Laura Davies, Karrie Webb, Kelly Robbins and Jane Geddes among others, for exhibition matches in Finspång. Amateur career
In 1981, only 15 years of age, she sensationally won the Swedish International Amateur Stroke-Play Championship, one of three major amateur tournaments in Sweden at the time, at Jönköping Golf Club, with a record aggregate of 282 and a 9-stroke margin. She bettered her personal 72-hole best with 30 strokes and beat the whole Swedish amateur national team, of which some did not even had heard of <mask> before the tournament. At the time of her triumph, she wasn't even qualified for the Swedish national junior team, which, the same summer, won the European Lady Junior's Team Championship. The year after, she successfully defended her stroke-play title and, at 16 years old, was a member of the national team at the Espirito Santo Trophy in Geneva,

In 1984, she was the Swedish Match Play champion (tournament for first time open for professionals), member of the winning Swedish team at the European Lady Junior's Team Championship at Campo de Golf El Saler, Valencia, Spain, and medalist at the 36-hole qualifying competition in the European Ladies Team Championship, in Waterloo, Belgium.After another appearance at the Espirito Santo Trophy in Hong Kong in late 1984, she turned professional at the beginning of 1985, not yet 19 years old. Professional career
She collected her first professional win at the Pierre Robert Cup, over 54 holes at Falsterbo Golf Club, in Sweden in May 1985 and played on the Ladies European Tour (at the time named the WPGA Tour) the second half of the year, were she won twice. At the Höganäs Ladies' Open at Mölle Golf Club in Sweden, she became the youngest ever winner on the WPGA Tour. She led the 1986 Ladies European Tour Order of Merit for most of the season, with eight straight top three finishes, but lost the lead to Laura Davies at the last tournament, the Spanish Open. While Davies won the tournament, <mask> finished 27th, her worst of the season. In the rankings, <mask> finished second, earning £494 less than Davies. The same year the ladies' Swedish Golf Tour get started with seven tournaments and <mask> was its first Order of Merit winner.<mask> became a member of the LPGA Tour in 1988, after tying fourth at the LPGA Tour Final Qualifying Tournament in late 1987.

Her best finish on the LPGA Tour money list is third in 1994. She also finished top ten in 1996, 1997 and 1998. Throughout her career on the LPGA Tour, she continued to play on the Ladies European Tour, as well as in Asia and Australia. She won five times in Japan and the 1995 Women's Australian Open. Her victory in the 1994 Women’s British Open made her the fifth player to win both British and U.S. Open titles, joining Laura Davies, Jane Geddes, Betsy King and Patty Sheehan. This accomplishment was later also achieved by Alison Nicholas, Pak Se-ri, Karrie Webb, Inbee Park and Ariya Jutanugarn.In 1994 <mask> topped the LET Order of Merit, was voted Golf Worlds Most Improved Golfer and awarded Swedish Golfer of the Year for the third time. <mask> played in the European Solheim Cup team against United States, six times in a row, 1990, 1992, 1994, 1996, 1998, and 2000.

<mask> (July 28, 1789 – February 13, 1858) was a 19th-century teacher and businessman, who also served as mayor of Lynchburg, Virginia for two terms in the early 1830s, as well as on the city council. Early and family life
<mask> was born in Ludlow, Windsor County, Vermont, to farmer, revolutionary war veteran, town clerk, and justice of the peace <mask> (1762–1832) and his wife, the former Lucy Keyes (1765–1846). The family included ten sons and five daughters (of these, Steven, 1784–1790; Charlotte, died in 1795; and Dexter, 1801–1803, died as children). Sons <mask> (1785–1859), <mask> (1798–1866), and <mask> (1803–1882) all eventually moved to Indiana to seek their fortunes, which became intertwined with those of their middle brother, <mask>. Daughter <mask> married a doctor and moved to Newark, New York, whither her sisters <mask> (1804–1836) and <mask> (d. 1845) also moved. <mask> (1791–1870) also worked with <mask> in Virginia before returning home to Vermont, as did his brother Stoughton (whose son <mask> later became governor of Vermont), for vacations. After their father suffered financial embarrassment, <mask> accepted a teaching position in Raleigh, North Carolina.The job would pay $600, but required him to begin in the fall. Middlebury College, where he had studied for three years, refused to confer a degree upon him before the winter, so <mask> transferred to the University of Vermont at Burlington, which was willing to confer the necessary degree by July. By July 6, <mask> had started southward with a horse and borrowed $20, economizing by stopping at farmhouses for soured milk and eating only dinner (usually only bread and cheese, but five times a meal on the 15 day journey from Albany, New York). He arrived in Washington, D.C. with $8. There, he met another young schoolmaster, who knew people in North Carolina but had accepted a job at Alexandria, Virginia. The young men decided to trade positions, so

 <mask>'s first teaching job was at Episcopal High School. The following May, having met U.S. Representative James Garland, <mask> accepted a job as principal of New Glasgow Academy in the foothills of the Blue Ridge mountains.Thus, after riding one of Congressman Garland's horses and stopping at Monticello to meet Thomas Jefferson, <mask> arrived at a 50-house village which later became Clifford in Amherst County, Virginia. There, <mask> taught at two separate buildings for young men and women, as well as sent money back home to pay the family debts, educate his younger siblings, and give presents. One of his female students was Maria Antoinette Crawford (1792–1853), whose family lived nearby at Tusculum plantation. He wrote back to Vermont about her amiability and accomplishments, as well as being cousin to Vice President Crawford. Her father, Princeton graduate and lawyer William Sidney Crawford (1760–1815), served as clerk of Amherst County from 1792–1814 as well as a trustee of the academy. W. S. Crawford had inherited the Tusculum plantation, which may have been built by his great-grandfather or grandfather David Crawford (ca. 1697–1766); he and his wife, Sophia Penn Crawford, raised Maria and twelve other children on the plantation.<mask> married Maria Crawford on April 15, 1813. Four of their children survived to adulthood: <mask> (1821–1898), <mask> (1824–1898), Indiana, and <mask> Mosby (1830–1890). Their daughter Laura (1825–1826) and another son (1828) died in infancy. Career
<mask> soon learned to manage Tusculum, and his father-in-law appointed him administrator of his estate (which included four plantations worked directly and another three leased to tenants) before W.S. Crawford died in 1815. His mother-in-law and her children (including W.S. Crawford Jr.) lived at Tusculum until moving to Kentucky in 1837, when <mask>'s eldest son Sidney began managing that plantation.<mask> and Sidney introduced

 modern farming methods at their farms, including deep plowing, draining wetlands, using clover as a cover crop and improved breeds of cattle, hogs, and sheep (rather than the racehorses which some of their neighbors favored). Meanwhile, <mask> moved with his young wife to Lynchburg, about 20 miles away, where he became a successful businessman and prominent citizen. He bought land on Diamond Hill and established a household which included enslaved persons. His younger brother Calvin had joined him and was licensed to practice law in Virginia in 1819, but two years later became upset with slavery and moved back to Ohio and then to the new state of Indiana, where he established a legal practice in newly founded Indianapolis. Soon, Calvin also sent hogs to Lynchburg (using drovers until, partly at the urging of <mask> in Virginia and <mask> in Indianapolis, railroads were built); <mask> fattened them on his Diamond Hill cow lot (which locals called "Fletcher's Hill"), then sold them in the area or used the James River Canal to send the fattened hogs to Richmond or points further south and east. Beginning in 1824, <mask> bought Tusculum from W.S. Crawford's other heirs, and would buy further plantations either directly or as payments for debts.In 1830, <mask> bought Locust Ridge plantation from Maria's aunt and uncle and became a merchant in both cities. He renamed Locust Ridge Sweet Briar plantation, after the small pink wild rose that grew there and which Maria favored. Initially, Sweet Briar was the <mask>s' summer residence, but they moved there year-round in 1846. By 1850, <mask> owned between 80 and 100 slaves in Amherst County plantations,

Meanwhile, in 1825 <mask> founded The Virginian newspaper. He also served on the Lynchburg city council, and as the city's mayor in 1830 and won re-election in 1832. He worked to bring a railroad to the hill city, and later once noted that local railroad contractors preferred

 slave labor rather than hiring white workers because they deemed the former "equally efficient, more moral and much easier managed," an assessment with which he agreed after hiring white labor to build an addition to his house. <mask> also helped found St. Paul's Episcopal Church in Lynchburg and Ascension Episcopal Church in Amherst, Virginia.Death and legacy
<mask> died at Sweet Briar on February 13, 1858, and was buried on his plantation. His letters would later be published, as would those of his brother Calvin. Upon <mask>'s death in 1858, his daughter, <mask> Williams, inherited the Sweet Briar plantation. Around 1858 in New York City, Indiana met J. Henry Williams (1831–1889), a recent graduate of General Theological Seminary, who would marry her and move to Virginia in 1865. Rev. Williams won election to in the Virginia Constitutional Convention of 1868 and later served as clerk of Amherst County. After the American Civil War ended in 1865, slaves were emancipated, but several continued to work for pay and live at Sweet Briar and other plantations.Henry and <mask> Williams' only child, Daisy (1867–1883) predeceased her parents. When Indiana Williams died a widow in 1900, she willed the land and much of her assets to a trust, and founded Sweet Briar College for women, which opened in 1906. <mask>'s eldest son, Sidney was trained at Yale as well as in Richmond and Europe. He escorted his sisters on their European tour and briefly traveled to California with his brother Lucian, as well as practiced medicine for a time. <mask> had given Sidney the deed for Tusculum plantation in 1850, where he farmed and raised livestock until his death. Although Sidney never married officially, he had a long term relationship with a mulatto woman, and devised property to her children in 1870. He later asked a New York cousin to move to Virginia and help him and his widowed sister Indiana.John Jay Williams did so, and later

 learned that he had inherited the plantation, and kept it in the family for several more decades. In 2003, the Association for the Preservation of Virginia Antiquities acquired the property to prevent its demolition. Tusculum was listed on the National Register for Historic Places in 2004, but the house itself was dismantled in 2006 (archeological excavations having been conducted at various times) and plans to reassemble it on campus fell through, so it still awaits restoration. It also is the name of an institute at Sweet Briar College. <mask>'s youngest daughter, Elizabeth, married and build a plantation across from Sweet Briar, which she named Mt. San Angelo (which is now site of the Virginia Center for the Creative Arts - VCCA), but which was acquired by Indiana after her death as some nuns in Lynchburg refused the bequest, and later sold by Sweet Briar College during its first decade. <mask> and Maria's second son, Lucian, also was educated at Yale (and, in law, at the College of William and Mary); he became the family's black sheep.Before his father's death, Lucian killed a man and fled to West Virginia, then committed further misdeeds (including another murder) that caused his father to disinherit him. Lucian would later flee to Canada, return to Amherst County, enlist in the Confederate Army (after killing another man in 1860, but soon was reduced to private and spent much of the war subject to court martial or imprisoned) and continued a "colorful" lifestyle. His children later contested <mask> Williams' will, but settled the dispute for $25,000, which allowed the college to be formed. See also

<mask> (30 October 1929 – 8 July 2013) was an English professional footballer who played for Everton, Aston Villa, Huddersfield Town, Liverpool, Cambridge City, Bury and Tranmere Rovers

Club career
<mask> started his football career as a teenager with non-league Ellesmere Port Town, where his robust style and keen eye for goal were noticed by the Everton manager Cliff Britton. He signed for the Toffees in 1948, but serving his stint of National Service delayed his debut for another three years. During this period he played for the Cheshire Army Cadets team, and it was with them that he was coached by the Everton legend Dixie Dean. It is fairly safe to assume that <mask> developed the physical side of his game in this period. <mask> made his debut for Everton in September 1951 against Leeds United, with the Blues in Division Two for only the second season in their history. Hickson was soon a regular fixture in the Everton side. Perhaps the defining moment in <mask>'s career came in Everton's 1952–53 FA Cup run.The Blues were still in Division Two, and home wins against Ipswich Town and Nottingham Forest put Everton into the fifth round, where they were drawn with Manchester United. In front of a capacity crowd at Goodison Park, <mask> launched himself headlong in amongst flying boots and emerged with a huge gash above one eyebrow. Hickson was led off down the tunnel, with the crowd fully expecting Everton to play the remainder with 10 men, as substitutes were not yet permitted. He emerged from the tunnel in the second half, greeted by a huge ovation from the crowd, with a row of freshly applied stitches holding the wound together. Minutes later Hickson scored what would end up as the winning goal, then headed

texts: against the post and opened the wound again. Despite pleas from both the referee and his captain to leave the field Hickson remained to the end of the game, his blond hair now red, and his shirt the same colour as the United ones. Hickson was also the match-winner in the quarter final against Aston Villa, with a thunderbolt shot from the edge of the box, after starting the move himself behind the halfway line.An epic year for cup ties this, as Everton next faced Bolton Wanderers at Maine Road. Hickson again received a head injury in this game, and was forced to retire with 15 minutes of the game to go. This was not until he'd scored a goal in an improbable comeback from 4-0 down at half time. The final score was 4–3, with Bolton going on to be defeated by the same score against Blackpool in the "Matthews final". Everton soon returned to Division One, as <mask>'s haul of 25 goals in the 1953–54 season helped them gain promotion to the top flight. After just one season back in the top flight with Everton, Hickson was sold to Aston Villa for £17,500. He never settled at Villa Park and played just 12 games in a brief stay.He moved next to Huddersfield Town, where he spent a further two years. Although his record at Huddersfield was respectable, <mask> was not content and he was happy to return to Goodison for a second spell in 1957 for £7,500. At least the board made a tidy profit on these deals. Hickson's second spell was not as productive as his first, but his passion & determination remained, and the Goodison Park faithful still worshipped him. When Everton sold him to their Merseyside derby rivals Liverpool in 1959, there was much dissent. Hickson was undoubtedly revered at Everton, but equally despised by

Supporters of the Reds, then struggling in Division Two, would soon be appeased.<mask> scored twice on his Liverpool debut at Anfield, watched by a crowd 15,000 higher than the average that season. Days later Liverpool had a new manager, Bill Shankly. Shankly had previously managed <mask> at Huddersfield and again made effective use of Hickson's style. His return of 21 goals in 27 games that season almost took Liverpool back to the top flight. Another near promotion the following year and a return of 16 goals in 33 would see the end of <mask>'s stint with Liverpool. <mask> was now nearing 32 and had to make way for Shankly's new signings. <mask> moved on, via non league Cambridge City, to Bury for a short spell, playing just a handful of games.He headed back to Merseyside in the twilight of his career, with a productive last couple of league seasons at Tranmere Rovers. He was Rovers' leading scorer in the 1962/63 season with 23 goals, at the age of 34. <mask> continued after this outside the Football League, playing for Ellesmere Port Town and Ballymena United (player/manager for both), and as a player at Winsford and Northwich Victoria. It is often said of Hickson that he is the only player to have played "for all three Merseyside clubs". This is wrong for several reasons: two other players, John Heydon and Frank Mitchell, also played for all three of Everton, Liverpool and Tranmere Rovers. But New Brighton were Football League members from 1923–51 and Bill Lacey and Neil McBain played for all three of Everton, Liverpool and New Brighton. In addition, John Whitehead played for Liverpool, Everton and also for Bootle in their one year as a league team (1892/93), before they were

 replaced in Division 2 by Liverpool.Playing style
His physical approach as centre forward, coupled with his determination soon made him a crowd favourite. Off the pitch, Hickson was a different man, quiet and unassuming, but the <mask>on that pulled on a Blue shirt and entered battle every Saturday afternoon was an aggressive character, no quarter given or asked. This aggression would lead to several run-ins with officials, and three sendings-off during his career, but that was his style & the fans loved it. A youthful Hickson with his striking appearance, fully quiffed up with a shock of blonde hair, as was the style of the day, was one of the few things to get excited about on the terraces of Goodison Park. <mask> soon forged a productive partnership with John Willie Parker, with Hickson being the target man. Although his reputation as an aerial threat was well known, Hickson was also a difficult opponent with the ball on the floor, and could produce a powerful shot, which earned him the nickname Cannonball Kid. Death
On 8 July 2013, Hickson died after a short illness, at the age of 83.His funeral service was held on 25 July 2013 at Liverpool Cathedral. References
