texts: <mask> (born August 12, 1951 in León, Nicaragua) is a Nicaraguan composer and guitarist. As a child, only 5 years old, <mask>, saw a 48 bass  red HOHNER accordion in the window of Libreria Lehman, in San Jose, Costa Rica, while on Christmas shopping, and he asked his father, to buy it. They went inside, and the salesman showed him the notes of Silent Night. Another salesman suggested to sell a smaller size accordion for children, but <mask>, wanted the one in the window. A couple of days later, on Christmas Day, it mysteriously appeared under the Christmas tree. He surprised his parents, by  playing the notes of Silent Night, that the salesman had showed him, only two days before. Professor Julio Max Blanco, started trying to teach him music theory, back in his native Nicaragua, in January, 1957.Lovo learned to play songs before he could read the notes. And Professor Blanco said, "He can play by ear alone, I give up." <mask> started playing accordion at the Colegio Calazanz, grammar school, at church functions. He learned to play harmonica with Father Caudelli, with the Cub Scouts, an instrument he still plays, in blues style. At school he also sang at the Calasanz Choir, later at the Colegio Centroamerica, boarding school in Granada, Nicaragua, with the Jesuits, he self-taught Hammond B2 organ, and Piano, during long punishment hours in solitary confinement at the music room, since Lovo had become rebellious, and hard to manage. There he created his first Piano composition: 'In the Woods of the Moon', that is recorded in his first 'Terremoto' album later in New Orleans, at Knight Recording Studios. The accordion was left alone when he picked up the guitar, that he learned from his home gardener, and guitar player,  Adan 'Bienvenido' Jaime, then called the Nicaraguan Elvis, who showed him how to play Elvis Presley songs, Nicaraguan and Mexican rock ballads, popular in the early 1960s.He got his first guitar from his uncle 'Chalito', in his native town of Leon,

This band featured as drummer, Jose 'Chepito' Areas, future founding member of the Santana Band, famous for opening the Woodstock Rock Festival. <mask> met Chepito Areas playing in the Half Time of a high school basketball game, and it was to be a lifelong musical friendship. He started playing in a rock band, with Ricardo Palma, and Adan Torres, as co-founders of Los Rockets in 1963 and then co-founded Los Juniors, with Emilio Ortega, in 1965. Both  Palma and Ortega, were the top lead guitar players of the Nicaragua rock movement in the 1960s. He also played with Edmundo Guerrero, a local guitar master of the Bossa Nova Brazilian jazz style. Lovo was hijacked on a LANICA airline flight out of Miami, where he almost lost his left hand due to bullet wounds.<mask> survived and later regained the use of his hand. In Managua, he produced the first Rock Concert, Concierto Idolo, at the Teatro Nacional Ruben Dario, in 1972, with an all star band, the members of the best known rock and jazz groups, in Nicaragua. The photo taken at the opening act, playing Mazurka in guitar, appears, as front cover of his album La Gigantona, widely acclaimed, in the tropical jazz category, in Billboard, on November 2012. He is one of the original exponents of Nicaraguan Latin Rock. He recorded an album, Terremoto Richter 6.3 in 1973, in New Orleans, while going to school at L.S.U.,  Baton Rouge, LA. It is a fusion of Nicaraguan-style classic Spanish guitar with New Orleans Jazz and Gospel. His main instrument is guitar, but also plays bass, and keyboards, as well as harmonica.He collaborated in his home town with Chepito Areas, the original percussionist with Santana Band. This connected him with that band. Together they produced the Managua Earthquake Relief concert featuring Mario Moreno AKA 'Cantinflas' in October 1972. After the

<mask> (born 14 March 1975) is an English former professional footballer, and currently first team coach for Newcastle United and goalkeeping coach for the Northern Ireland national team. He is best known for his time playing at Newcastle, having amassed 157 league appearances over a twenty-year period between 1993 and 2013. Although he was not always the first choice goalkeeper at Newcastle, he was the longest-serving player in the club's history. Early life
<mask> was born in Seaham, County Durham. He grew up in the mining village of Easington, County Durham, and studied Sport at the East Durham College. He was interested in football from a young age and goalkeeper Bruce Grobbelaar was his idol. Anfield was the first football ground he went to, where he watched Liverpool win a match 2–0 in the 1982–83 season.<mask> attended Easington Comprehensive School. He was offered a place at Liverpool John Moores University. Career

Newcastle United
In 1993, he was signed by Newcastle United from his local club Seaham Red Star, for a nominal fee. Seen as back-up to first-choice goalkeeper Pavel Srníček after his arrival at Newcastle, and then Shaka Hislop and subsequently Shay Given; he had loan spells at Bradford City, Gateshead, Stockport County, Hartlepool United and Huddersfield Town before making his first-team debut as a half time substitute against Wimbledon in 1998. At this point <mask> achieved the rare feat of making an appearance in each of the top five divisions of the English game. <mask> came close to dislodging Given on numerous occasions, most notably in the 1998–99 season. <mask> played in the 1999 FA Cup Final, when Newcastle lost 2–0 to Manchester United.Then-manager Ruud Gullit appeared to see <mask> worthy of playing over Given. However, at the start of the 1999–2000 season, Gullit resigned and <mask> again became second choice goalkeeper, although he did enjoy another brief period of first team action for part of the season when Given

In 2002, he made several appearances in the UEFA Champions League, most notably against Juventus. The match was played at St James' Park and <mask> managed to keep a clean sheet during a 1–0 win over the Italian champions. The victory helped Newcastle qualify from the group stages of the tournament. <mask> has handed in a transfer request in his time with Newcastle, citing lack of regular first team football as his reason (something which Given also did when <mask> kept him out of the team under Gullit).He has been linked with moves to West Bromwich Albion, Celtic, Watford, Rangers, and Liverpool in his time with Newcastle, though none of these purported moves came to fruition. He again expressed his desire to achieve first team football in June 2006, an act which saw then manager Glenn Roeder attempt to persuade <mask> to remain with the club. This appeared to work as he signed a new contract to keep him at St. James' Park until June 2009. An injury to Given early in the 2006–07 season gave <mask> another chance to prove his worth in the first team. However, he did not have the best start to first team action, as Newcastle lost 2–0 to Liverpool on 20 September 2006, in what was <mask>'s first league start for 15 months. The second goal, a 65-yard lob from Xabi Alonso, saw <mask> slip whilst backpedaling to reach it, although he did still attempt to get up and stop it. Despite this setback <mask> gave some excellent performances in the season.One particular moment was his wonderful save against Manchester City in early November. <mask> also received another run in the first team after a third injury to Given later that season, the highlight of this would be keeping a clean sheet against Chelsea, a feat only matched by two other keepers that season. This was the first season <mask> played consecutive league matches since 2001. On 26 July 2007, <mask>

With Given struggling with a groin injury and rookie Tim Krul on loan at Falkirk, <mask> was able to start the first six league games, keeping two clean sheets. However he lost his place again when Given was fit, though another injury to Given later in the season allowed <mask> to gain more first team appearances under the new boss, and the manager who first brought him to Newcastle, Kevin Keegan.After a series of good performances, <mask> was once again linked with a transfer away from Newcastle. Liverpool expressed an interest in signing him as backup to first-choice goalkeeper Pepe Reina. Keegan reacted to this by stating his intentions to keep <mask>, and acknowledging his record of conceding just once in seven and a half hours of play. <mask> signed a new contract in January 2009, keeping him at Newcastle until 2012, his nineteenth year at the club. During the transfer window of the same month, Given moved to Manchester City, elevating <mask>'s position within the club and so after nearly 16 years, <mask> was finally first-choice goalkeeper at 33 years old. <mask> repaid the management's faith in him by putting in some fine match performances including several world-class saves and was the best goalkeeper in the Championship, keeping a club record 21 clean sheets in 37 matches and conceding 35 goals at less than a goal a game. <mask> made his 50th consecutive league start for Newcastle on 6 March 2010, in the 6–1 win over Barnsley.This was his longest run of consecutive starts he had ever made in his entire career. On 23 March 2010, <mask> recorded his nineteenth clean sheet of the season after Newcastle beat Doncaster Rovers 1–0 at the Keepmoat Stadium, thus breaking the club's

Newcastle were eventually promoted, and went on to win the division title following a 2–0 away win at Plymouth Argyle. <mask> considers the title victory as the highest point of his career. On 18 September 2010, <mask> was injured in a challenge by Jermaine Beckford during the 1–0 win at Everton, needing to be substituted in the first half. On 22 September it was confirmed he would be out of action for at least three months. In late October 2010, Chris Hughton stated <mask> may be back in contention in as little as 3 weeks, after making a "very good recovery" and stated he would come back in "good shape".<mask> returned to training in December 2010, and made the bench in new  manager Alan Pardew's first game, beating Liverpool 3–1. Krul kept his place for the 2–0 defeat to Tottenham Hotspur as well on 28 December, but <mask> returned as first choice keeper against Wigan Athletic away in a 1–0 win. <mask> maintained his place as goalkeeper throughout January and February. In the 2011–12 season, <mask> once again lost his place to Krul and often did not even make the bench. On 24 October 2011, <mask> joined Football League Championship side Brighton & Hove Albion on a one-month loan, making his debut the same day in a 1–0 defeat to West Ham United. In the summer before the 2012–13 season, Krul was given the number 1 shirt number, previously worn by <mask>.

Goran "<mask>" <mask> (December 10, 1955 in Vareš, PR Bosnia-Herzegovina, FPR Yugoslavia – January 12, 1994 in Belgrade, Serbia, FR Yugoslavia) was a Bosnian rock drummer, famous for his work with the band Bijelo Dugme. Early life
<mask> was born to father Josip and mother Mirjana in the central Bosnian town of Vareš where his mining engineer father had been assigned for employment by the Yugoslav communist authorities as part of the country's central economic planning. Nicknamed <mask> from an early age, the youngster was raised with an older brother and younger sister Gordana. Move to Sarajevo
The family moved to Sarajevo in 1960 when Ivandić was four. While in elementary school, Ivandić simultaneously attended violin classes at a lower music school. However, soon after completing his final music school exam, he abruptly decided he "no longer wanted to bother with violin". He would soon turn his focus to percussions.In 1970, along with some friends, fourteen-year-old Ivandić founded a music section within the Boško Buha youth centre simply because it was willing to provide free instruments. They named their band Crossroads with Ivandić playing the drums. With the band taking up most of his free time, he started neglecting school and as a result flunked his sophomore year of high school and had to repeat it. He eventually switched to part-time secondary education. Career
In June 1972, Ivandić went on a three-month summer gig in Trpanj as part of a band called Moby Dick. After getting back to Sarajevo in fall 1972, the teenager began receiving offers from groups looking for a drummer and decided to join a

 band called Rok. Its bandleader, organist , would later, in 1974, establish the hard rock band Teška Industrija on the ashes of Rok.Jutro and Bijelo Dugme
Teenage Ivandić was still drumming in Rok when Jutro's twenty-three-year-old bandleader Goran Bregović became aware of him during late summer 1973. Seeking a replacement for Šento Borovčanin, Bregović immediately presented Ivandić with an offer of joining Jutro which the seventeen-year-old accepted. <mask> thus began the first of his three stints with what would soon become the most popular band in SFR Yugoslavia. Several months later, on New Year's Eve 1974, Jutro changed its name to Bijelo Dugme. After recording two hugely successful albums—1974's Kad bi' bio bijelo dugme and 1975's Šta bi dao da si na mom mjestu—as well as playing the accompanying tours, Ivandić received an early call up to serve the mandatory Yugoslav People's Army stint in October 1976. The call up came at the most inopportune time as the band was getting ready to start recording their third album, but Ivandić had to go nonetheless. Still twenty-years-of-age at the time, he was assigned to a unit stationed in capital city Belgrade.His replacement in the band was Bregović's old companion Milić Vukašinović. After being discharged early from the army due to getting pronounced "temporarily unable to serve", Ivandić rejoined the band during mid 1977. Mired in deep personality clashes amid a shambolic tour featuring less-than-expected attendance, poor musicianship due to lack of practice, equipment problems, and overall organizational issues, Bijelo Dugme somehow completed the tour

In early 1978, with Bijelo Dugme on hiatus due to band leader Bregović being away in Niš and serving his own mandatory army stint, Ivandić and Bijelo Dugme keyboardist Laza Ristovski started working on a side project—album titled Stižemo with their act named Laza i Ipe. The material—composed by Ristovski, arranged by Ipe, with lyrics written by Ranko Boban—was recorded in London throughout February and March 1978 featuring <mask>, his sister Gordana Ivandić and Goran Kovačević on vocals, Leb i Sol leader Vlatko Stefanovski on guitar, Zlatko Hold on bass, and Ristovski on keyboards. However, the release date kept getting pushed back due to financing issues as they had problems convincing the Jugoton record label to cover their expenses. Simultaneously, during Bregović's temporary army leaves, the duo—backed up by Bijelo Dugme singer Željko Bebek—initiated multiple internal discussions as they wanted several business matters within the band to be handled differently going forward, specifically writing credits and subsequent revenue sharing.Dissatisfied with Bregović's flat rejection of their demands, Ivandić and Ristovski abandoned Bijelo Dugme altogether in late July 1978 in order to fully commit to their new project. Back on the Laza i Ipe front, the money issues with Jugoton were solved by taking the material over to ZKP RTLJ label while some of the money was obtained through Bijelo Dugme

It was also the first time in Yugoslavia that an album's release was scheduled in advance with the date announced publicly—a widely used marketing practice at the time had been to release an album and then promote it once it's already in stores. Then on September 10, 1978, the day of the album release, while entering his apartment building in Sarajevo, coming back from a walk with his girlfriend, twenty-two-year-old Ivandić was arrested by a plain clothes policeman who said he is taking him in for questioning. Ivandić had been set to leave for Belgrade in a matter of hours where Laza was waiting so they can do promotional activities for the album. Instead, Ivandić got charged with a series of drug offenses along with other individuals.He thus began a long court battle and most of his musical activities got pushed to the back burner. He even sold his drum kit and went back to his university studies, passing a few exams at the University of Sarajevo's Faculty of Political Sciences where he had been enrolled in the journalism program. While awaiting sentencing, Ivandić was under a Yugoslavia-wide shadow ban on public performance that including restrictions on being credited publicly. Bijelo Dugme also publicly distanced themselves from Ivandić, recording their next two studio albums—1979's Bitanga i princeza and 1980's Doživjeti stotu—with Điđi Jankelić on drums. Since the SR Serbia constituent unit mostly didn't enforce his country-wide ban, <mask> began frequently performing there as a

 session drummer in order to help his finances. He participated in the recording sessions of the twenty-two-year-old Slađana Milošević's 1979 debut album Gorim od želje da ubijem noć in PGP-RTB's studios in Belgrade and furthermore appears in the title track video. Showing Ivandić in several frames of the video at this time was considered controversial in Yugoslavia and reportedly required young Milošević to personally intervene with the television executives.Eventually, <mask> got sentenced by the Sarajevo District Court three-judge council presided over by judge Husein Hubijer to 3 and a half years in prison for "possession of hashish and enabling others to use narcotics". Also sentenced by the council on the same charge were Goran Kovačević to year and a half, Ranko Boban to 1 year. Furthermore, Zlatko Hold got sentenced to six months for obstruction of justice. <mask> appealed the verdict, and his sentence was reduced to 3 years by the Supreme Court of SR Bosnia-Herzegovina. He began serving his punishment at the Zenica correctional facility in early 1981. On February 17, 1981, he got transferred to another prison, in Foča, before getting pardoned some year and a half later for Republic Day 1982 (November 29). Return to Dugme
After being released from prison, Ivandić reportedly immediately travelled to SR Slovenia, spending several weeks with a friend without contacting any of his old professional collaborators.By late December 1982, he got tracked down by Bijelo Dugme's manager Raka Marić and bandleader Bregović who extended an offer of rejoining the band. After initially turning them down, they

 persisted and several days later <mask> accepted thus beginning his third stint with the band that would last until 1989 when the band dissolved. During the mid-1980s he also recorded two albums, Kakav divan dan and Igre slobode, with his long-time girlfriend . After the albums' recording, Amila moved to London while <mask> stopped all side projects and devoted fully to Bijelo Dugme. It is unclear where he lived after the war started. Most say that he lived in Belgrade but in a 1994 interview for Croatian weekly Globus (conducted days after <mask>'s death), Željko Bebek states Ivandić lived in Vienna, at least at the time they last talked. Personal life
From his early days at Bijelo Dugme during the mid 1970s, Ivandić was in a relationship with Irhada Muhić (later Sulejmanpašić).In the early 1980s, he began a romantic involvement with  (later Welland) whom he also collaborated with musically. The relationship ended in 1988 when she moved to London. In 2018, Sulejmanović released her autobiography Ključ bubnja tama, significant portions of which centre around her musical career in Yugoslavia and relationship with <mask>. In 1988, <mask> began a relationship with Dragana Tešić. The two got married in 1990 following the premature end of Bijelo Dugme's 1989 tour that would eventually turn out to be the band's last activity. The couple's son Filip was born in Sarajevo in 1991. On January 12, 1994, <mask> fell from the 6th floor of Belgrade's Metropol Hotel and died.It is generally believed that it was a suicide, but Bebek in the same interview says he has trouble believing it based on his prior knowledge of

In May 2009, Senators Ted Kennedy and John Kerry recommended <mask> to President Obama for the vacant United States Attorney position in the District of Massachusetts. On September 18, Obama nominated <mask> for the position. On November 5, the United States Senate confirmed her appointment by unanimous consent. <mask> was both the first woman and the first Hispanic to serve as United States Attorney for the District of Massachusetts. <mask> was rebuffed in several harshly worded rulings by judges on cases brought by her office.These cases were accused of "stretching the evidence" and "gross exaggeration" by federal judge Judith Dein, an "overkill" and "unusual prosecution" by federal judge Douglas Woodlock and being "over the top" by federal judge Nancy Gertner. White collar cases

In 2011, <mask>'s office was responsible for the prosecution of GlaxoSmithKline general counsel Lauren Stevens. Ultimately, the court dismissed the case, ruling that "it would be a miscarriage of justice to permit this case to go to the jury." On March 23, 2012, <mask>'s office secured grand jury indictments against former state Probation Commissioner John J. O’Brien and two of his former deputies, Elizabeth Tavares and William Burke III, for their involvement in running a sham hiring system in which friends and family members of legislators and politically connected job seekers were hired over more qualified applicants. Each faces one count of racketeering conspiracy and 10 counts of mail fraud for sending rejection letters to applicants they knew they were never going to consider. If convicted, they face up to 20 years in prison on each of the 11 counts.

In 2015, <mask> was expected to pursue $1.1 million 'Insider Trading' scam involving two Indian Americans Iftikar Ahmed & Amit Kanodia which involved sharing of insider information leading to illegal gains in the NYSE.Whitey Bulger case

<mask>'s office led the prosecution of mobster Whitey Bulger. On July 6, 2011, Bulger was arraigned in federal court. He pleaded not guilty to 48 charges, including 19 counts of murder, extortion, money laundering, obstruction of justice, perjury, narcotics distribution and weapons violations. <mask>'s office also led the prosecution of Bulger's girlfriend Catherine Greig. In March 2012, Greig plead guilty to conspiracy to harbor a fugitive, identity fraud, and conspiracy to commit identity fraud. On June 12, 2012, she was sentenced to eight years' confinement in a federal penitentiary. Terrorism and drug cases

<mask> led the prosecution of American pharmacist Tarek Mehanna, who was accused of, among other crimes, translating and posting online materials described by prosecutors as Al Qaeda propaganda.Mehanna's lawyers argued that he never tried to join an armed group and never tried to hurt anyone, and that his internet activities were protected under the U.S. First Amendment. In April 2012, Mehanna was sentenced in federal court in Boston on four terrorism-related charges and three others related to lying to agents of the FBI and other U.S. federal officials. <mask> came under fire after her office was involved in the January 19, 2013 arrest of a man who reportedly "looks very much like" a wanted drug suspect. The man was released by a federal magistrate the following day after prosecutors admitted "significant doubt" that the arrested man was indeed the suspect. Donald Gonczy case
<mask> was "admonished by a federal appeals court in 2004 for advocating a harsher jail term for a fraud defendant than she had promised him in a plea-bargain agreement." In a plea deal, <mask> had agreed to leniency, but she "substantively argued" for a harsher sentence. The Appeals Court

 ruled that <mask> "violated the plea agreement it entered into with Gonczy," and it vacated the sentence.Motel Caswell confiscation case
<mask>'s office sought to confiscate the Motel Caswell in Tewksbury, Massachusetts from its owner, Russ Caswell. Prosecutors contended that, despite the fact that Caswell himself had never been charged with any crime, his property was subject to civil forfeiture as a long-term site of criminal activity. <mask>'s spokeswoman said "The government believed that this was an important case, not only for the town of Tewksbury, which has been plagued for decades by the criminal activity at Motel Caswell, but because of the important deterrent message it sends to others who may turn a blind eye to crime occurring at their place of business." The property had been the location of 15 drug crimes between 1994 and 2008, which Caswell said is small considering that he rents about 14,000 rooms per year. Caswell was represented by the Institute for Justice, a non-profit libertarian public interest law firm that frequently intervenes in asset forfeiture cases. On January 24, 2013, U.S. Magistrate Judge Judith Dein sided with Caswell. In a written decision, Dein dismissed the government's forfeiture action, ruling that Caswell, "who was trying to eke out an income from a business located in a drug-infested area that posed great risks to the safety of him and his family, took all reasonable steps to prevent crime.The Government’s resolution of the crime problem should not be to simply take his Property." In the ruling, the court criticized the prosecution for "stretching the evidence" and engaging in "gross exaggeration." After considering an appeal, her office announced that in March 2013 that they would not pursue the matter further. Prosecution of Aaron Swartz

<mask>'s office prosecuted  computer programmer and Internet activist Aaron Swartz. In 2011, Swartz was arrested for unauthorized, bulk downloading of free articles from internet archive JSTOR, in violation of the JSTOR's terms of use. In a 2011 press release announcing Swartz's indictment on

texts: federal charges, <mask> said "Stealing is stealing whether you use a computer command or a crowbar, and whether you take documents, data or dollars. It is equally harmful to the victim whether you sell what you have stolen or give it away."After State Prosecutors dropped their charges, federal prosecutors filed a superseding indictment adding nine more felony counts, which increased Swartz's maximum criminal exposure to 50 years of imprisonment and $1 million in fines. The prosecution brought by <mask> involved what was characterized by numerous critics such as former White House Counsel John Dean as "overcharging" and "overzealous" prosecution for the alleged computer crimes. In all, prosecutors charged Swartz with 13 felony counts, despite the fact that both MIT and JSTOR had chosen not to pursue civil litigation; he faced 30 years' imprisonment. Swartz committed suicide on January 11, 2013, before the case came to trial. More than 60,000 people petitioned the White House to remove <mask> from office for "overreach." On January 15, 2013, following his suicide, all charges against Swartz were dropped. The next day, <mask> issued a statement saying that her office had never intended to seek maximum penalties against Aaron Swartz.However, the same day, <mask>'s husband, IBM executive Tom Dolan, scolded the Swartz family for issuing a statement criticizing the prosecutors and MIT. He rationalized: "Truly incredible that in their own son's obit, they blame others for his death and make no mention of the 6-month offer." Esquire writer Charlie Pierce replied, "the glibness with which her husband and her defenders toss off a 'mere' six months in federal prison, low-security or not, is a further indication that something is seriously out of whack with the way our prosecutors think these days." Massachusetts Lawyers Weekly published an op-ed piece by Massachusetts criminal defense attorney Harvey Silverglate about the case. He said attorneys familiar with the case had told him the Middlesex County District Attorney's office had planned for Swartz's case to be "continued without a

 finding, with Swartz duly admonished and then returned to civil society to continue his pioneering electronic work in a less legally questionable manner." "Under such a disposition," Silverglate later told CNET's Declan McCullagh, "the charge is held in abeyance ("continued") without any verdict ("without a finding"). The defendant is on probation for a period of a few months up to maybe a couple of years at the most; if the defendant does not get into further legal trouble, the charge is dismissed, and the defendant has no criminal record.This is what the lawyers expected to happen when Swartz was arrested. But then the feds took over...." "Tragedy intervened," Silverglate wrote, "when <mask>'s office took over the case to send 'a message'." Boston's WBUR reported in February 2013 that <mask> was expected to testify before the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform's probe into the handling of the Aaron Swartz case. The Department of Justice gave a private briefing about the case to the House Committee, and subsequently, in March 2013, Attorney General Eric Holder defended <mask>'s aggressive prosecution before the Senate Judiciary Committee, terming it "a good use of prosecutorial discretion." In January 2015, two years after Swartz's death, the White House declined to act on the petition to remove <mask> from office. Boston Marathon bombings

<mask>'s office led the investigation into the Boston Marathon bombing. On June 27, 2013, <mask> unveiled a grand jury's 30-count indictment against suspect Dzhokhar Tsarnaev.On July 10, 2013, Tsarnaev pleaded not guilty to all charges. On August 8, 2013, two of Tsarnaev's friends were indicted on federal obstruction of justice charges. Another <mask> prosecution, this time of Tamerlan's friend Khairullozhon Matanov who pleaded guilty rather than face 20 years in prison, has been described as overzealous. Martin Gottesfeld case

 treatment of Justina Pelletier. Pelletier was taken from her family by the hospital under a controversial Massachusetts law. Martin Gottesfeld claimed responsibility for an attack by Anonymous that prevented the Boston Children's Hospital (and other treatment facilities) from receiving donations for limited period of time with denial-of-service attacks that briefly prevented access to a public website or server. He has been held for trial since February 2016 and had reported that he was on a hunger strike and claimed that he had been put in solitary confinement as punishment for the hunger strike.Teamsters Picketing/Extortion Case
In 2014 <mask> prosecuted 5 Teamsters activists for picketing the Bravo Network show Top Chef for extortion and racketeering in response to their picketing the show for not hiring union drivers. 4 of the 5 charged were acquitted, with the remaining member pleading guilty to lesser charges. Recognition
In 2011, the Boston Globe named her "Bostonian of the Year" for her prosecution of "corruption and white-collar crime". Boston magazine labeled her the third most powerful person in Boston in 2012 for her successful corruption prosecutions of former Speaker of the Massachusetts House of Representatives Salvatore DiMasi, former state Senator Dianne Wilkerson, and former Boston City Councilor Chuck Turner. Personal life
<mask> has two daughters and is married to IBM executive Thomas J. Dolan; her first husband, Michael Vittorio Morisi, died in 2000. <mask> reportedly considered a campaign for Governor of Massachusetts, but she denied interest in such a run. This decision also came on the heels of the unpopular Swartz prosecution, with other critics describing <mask>'s professional record as marked by a "hands-off leadership style" and "overzealousness."References

<mask> of Hackeborn (1240/1241 – 19 November 1298) was a Saxon Christian saint (from what is now Germany) and a Benedictine nun. She was famous for her musical talents, gifted with a beautiful voice. At the age of 50, Mechtilde went through a grave spiritual crisis, as well as physical suffering. In the modern Benedictine calendar, her feast is celebrated on the anniversary of her death, November 19. She died in the convent of Helfta, near Eisleben. Birth and Baptism

Born Matilda von Hackeborn-Wippra, in 1240 or 1241, she belonged to one of the noblest and most powerful Thuringian families; her sister was the illustrious Abbess Gertrude of Hackeborn. The family of Hackeborn belonged to a dynasty of Barons in Thuringia who were related to the Hohenstaufen family and had possessions in northern Thuringia and in the Harz Mountains.Some writers have considered that <mask> von Hackeborn and <mask> von Wippra were two distinct persons, but, as the Barons of Hackeborn were also Lords of Wippra, it was customary for members of that family to take their name indifferently from either, or both of these estates. So fragile was she at birth, that the attendants, fearing she might die unbaptized, hurried her off to the priest who was just then preparing to say Mass. He was reported as a person of "great sanctity," and after baptizing the child, is reported to have made a statement to this effect, judged by some to be prophetic: "What do you fear? This child most certainly will not die, but she will become a saintly religious in

In 1919, she moved with her parents and elder sister Marjorie to the township of Crystal Brook, where Marjorie and <mask> commenced school. <mask>'s younger siblings Betty Christina ("Chris"), Donald and Denise were born at the Crystal Brook Hospital. In 1927, the family moved to North Unley, a suburb of Adelaide. <mask> and her sister Chris attended a private school, Fairford House.After passing the Qualifying Certificate Examination of Grade 7, <mask> entered the Methodist Ladies College (which became Annesley College in 1977). As a result of The Great Depression, and the death of Ruby in 1931, most of the family moved to the farming property at Pinnaroo, while <mask> remained in Adelaide.

She commenced with three students from the Barnfield family of the Tapio Station. They were later joined by one more student. In 1942, she took up a position as a teacher in residence at Woodlands Church of England Girls' Grammar School, working with both the kindergarten and lower school.Due in part to her late mother having suffered from poliomyelitis (or infantile paralysis, as it was then known), <mask> was interested in working with sick or disadvantaged children. In 1945, she commenced employment at the Spastic Centre at the Royal Children's Hospital in Melbourne, Victoria. There Gum worked with children with cerebral palsy; attending the weekly clinics of Dame Jean Macnamara, a specialist in the treatment and care of children with cerebral palsy. During her tenure in

 Melbourne, <mask> resided in the Presbyterian Ladies College boarding house in East Melbourne. In 1946, at the request of Mr Norman Taylor, the then president of The Crippled Children's Association of South Australia (now known as Novita Children's Services), <mask> returned to Adelaide to establish a centre for the care of children with cerebral palsy, becoming the Director of the Spastic Centre. In Adelaide, she returned to Woodlands Church of England Girls' Grammar School ("Woodlands") in residence, again taking charge of the Junior Boarding House in the evenings, while devoting her days to her new work. "The Centre", as it was then known, was established in the then Adelaide Children's Hospital, officially opening on 6 March 1946.The Centre used one room in the first-floor  Outpatients' Department. As the lifts were old and unreliable, at times pupils were carried up and down the stairs. In 1948  <mask> left Woodlands; taking  up residence nearer to the Adelaide Children's Hospital and concentrating wholly on her work for The Crippled Children's Association of South Australia. On 3 November 1949, the Centre moved to a prefabricated building of three rooms which had been purchased in Kermode Street, North Adelaide. Ashford House

The Centre remained in North Adelaide until 1951, when The Crippled Children's Association of South Australia purchased Ashford House and its property of one and one half acres on Anzac Highway, Ashford with assistance from the South Australian government. The buildings at Kermode Street were dismantled and rebuilt in the grounds of Ashford House. In 1955, <mask> took twelve months leave of absence to study and to visit relevant schools and centres overseas.Around 1956, the school was renamed Ashford House School for Cerebral Palsied Children. School colours of green and silver (green and grey for school uniforms) were chosen. The school motto, "Animo et Fide", meaning 'with Courage and Faith" was worked into a school badge. House names – Schweitzer, Wilberforce, Shaftesbury, Flynn, Sturt and Nightingale – were employed instead of grades. The dismantled and rebuilt prefabricated buildings

 remained The Ashford Spastic Centre until 1960, when the proceeds of a Channel Nine television telethon were donated to the Spastic Centre. This support, with a government subsidy, was used to build a permanent school, the first sod being turned on 7 July 1961. In 1960 the Ashford House Activity Centre – a therapeutic learning centre for teenagers and young adults, planned by the medical director, Dr Ralph Horton – had been built and was opened by the then premier, Sir Thomas Playford.In September 1966 <mask> attended the Tenth World Congress of the International Society for Rehabilitation of the Disabled in Wiesbaden, Germany; also touring facilities in other countries.

In the following year she was appointed to the school at Halis, New Ireland, New Guinea, where she worked with three New Guinean teachers and one trainee student in the village two miles away. In English lessons in New Guinea, <mask> used the "Words in Colour" reading charts which she and others had pioneered at the Ashford Centre. Around 1971, <mask> was asked by Miss Ruth Watts, headmistress of the Methodist Ladies College, to take on a temporary position at the school. The position became permanent and Ms <mask> again used the pioneering "Words in Colour" system.In 1975, at the age of 60 years, <mask> completed her last years as a teacher with a double Grade 7 group in a large open classroom, term-teaching with two other teachers. Post-retirement

In 1975, <mask> returned to New Guinea to share the "One Hundred Years in the Islands" celebration.

Pominville quickly became an integral part of the Sabres line-up and finished the rest of the season with the Sabres with 18 goals in 57 games. In the 2006 playoffs, he recorded a hat-trick in Game 2 of the first round against the Philadelphia Flyers. Later in the Sabres' playoff run, he scored the series-clinching goal in the second round

It marked the first time in NHL history that a playoff series was decided by an overtime shorthanded goal.Buffalo announcer Rick Jeanneret marked this occasion with a call that is now famous in Buffalo hockey lore: "Oh, now do you believe? Now do you believe? These guys are good, scary good!" The Sabres had qualified as the fourth seed in the playoffs after failing to qualify the previous three seasons. After improving to 68 points the following season, <mask> made a name for himself in 2007–08. He scored at nearly a point-per-game with 80 points in 82 games. In the absence of departed co-captains Chris Drury and Daniel Brière from the previous season, the Sabres utilized a rotating captaincy during the 2007–08 season; <mask> was named captain for the months of March and April.At the end of the season, he was nominated for the Lady Byng Memorial Trophy as the league's most sportsmanlike player, along with Pavel Datsyuk and Martin St. Louis; the honour was awarded to Datsyuk. On September 18, 2008, the Sabres acknowledged Pominville's rise to prominence and signed him to a five-year, $26.5 million contract extension (taking effect in 2009–10). His existing contract saw him make just over $1 million per season. On October 13, 2010, his consecutive start streak of 335 games was broken because of the concussion he had received from Chicago Blackhawks defensemen Niklas Hjalmarsson (who was suspended two games for the illegal hit) in the previous game on October 11, 2010, when he was checked into the boards head first and then removed from the ice in a stretcher.

texts:
<mask> of Braga (in Latin <mask>nsis, in Portuguese, known as <mask>  520–580 AD) was an archbishop of Bracara Augusta in Gallaecia (now Braga in Portugal), a missionary, a monastic founder, and an ecclesiastical author. According to his contemporary, the historian Gregory of Tours, <mask> was plenus virtutibus ("full of virtue") and in tantum se litteris imbuit ut nulli secundus sui temporis haberetur ("he so instructed himself in learning that he was considered second to none in his lifetime"). He was later canonized in the Catholic Church as well as in the Eastern and Oriental Orthodox churches, for his work in converting the inhabitants of Gallaecia to Chalcedonian Christianity,. His feast day is 20 March. Life
Born in Pannonia, in Central Europe, <mask> made a pilgrimage to the Holy Land, where he became a monk. He found his way to Hispania, decided to settle in Gallaecia. "His intentions in going to a place so remote by the standards of his own day are unknown," writes Roger Collins.But his arrival in Gallaecia was historically significant, for he played an important role in converting the Suevi from their current Arian beliefs to the Chalcedonian Christianity of their Fifth-century king Rechiar. While there he founded several monasteries, the best known of which was at Dumium; around 550 he was consecrated bishop of Braga, whence comes his surname. In May 561, <mask> attended the provincial First Council of Braga as bishop of Dumio. He presided over the Second Council of Braga held in 572 as archbishop of Braga, having been elevated to the archdiocese between the two events; Laistner notes "His authorship of ten chapters submitted and approved in 572 is certain and there is little doubt that he also compiled the Acts of both Councils." Works
<mask> of Braga was a prolific author. Besides his contributions

 to the two provincial councils, he translated into Latin a collection of 109 sayings attributed to Egyptian abbots, while at his instigation the monk Paschasius, whom <mask> had taught Greek translated another collection of sayings, entitled Verbum seniorum. But for modern scholars, his most interesting works were two treatises he wrote in the final decade of his life, De ira and Formula vitae honestae, because they were adapted from two essays of Seneca the Younger which were subsequently lost."<mask>'s tract are valuable evidence that some at least of Seneca's writings were still available in the land of his birth in the sixth century," writes Laistner. Three other short essays on ethics demonstrate his clear familiarity with the works of John Cassian. Another important work is his sermon, written in the form of a letter to his fellow bishop Polemius of Asturica, De correctione rusticorum, which discusses the issue of rural paganism. Noting that this sermon has often been seen as evidence of <mask>'s missionary work against rural paganism, Collins asserts that a closer look does not support this thesis, for "there are no points of contact [in this work] with what is known of the indigenous pre-Christian cults of rural Galicia." The influences present in this work have been debated: Laistner sees evidence of the sermons of the Gallic bishop Caesarius of Arles, who lived a generation ago; Collins believes it is modelled on a treatise of Augustine of Hippo on the same topic. <mask> also composed poetry; Gregory of Tours notes that he authored the verses over the southern portal of the church of Saint Martins of Tours in that city.

In the twelfth century, an accident caused the loss of the preface attributing the work to <mask>, causing scribes and readers mistakenly to identify the treatise as a genuine work by Seneca. As such, over the next three centuries, Formula vitae honestae was used alongside the Epistle to Seneca the Younger as proof for Seneca's adherence to Christianity.

Sententiae Patrum Aegyptiorum (Saying of the Egyptian Fathers): translated by <mask> from an anonymous Greek manuscript he carried with him to Iberia.Two translations exist: one by the monk Paschasius, who was instructed in Greek by <mask>, and one by <mask> himself. The version by <mask> is twenty-two sections shorter than Paschasius's, as most of the anecdotes about the daily life of the Egyptian ascetic monks were removed to focus on their moral instruction. Poetry: only three poems by <mask> are preserved from history. Two of them are inscriptions for buildings, and the third is a six-line epitaph about <mask>'s own life. De correctione rusticorum

In 572, the Second Council of Braga decreed that bishops are to call the people of their church together, so they may be converted to Christianity. After the council, a bishop named Polemius of Astorga wrote to <mask> of Braga asking for advice on the conversion of rural pagans. Polemius was especially concerned about their perceived idolatry and sin.<mask>'s reply was a treatise in the form of a sermon, enclosed in his responding letter to Polemius. Out of all of <mask>'s works, De correctione rusticorum (On the Reform of Rustics) is of particular interest to modern scholars. It contains both a detailed catalogue of sixth-century Iberian pagan practices, and an unusually tolerant approach to them by <mask>. Alberto Ferreiro attributes <mask>'s acceptance to his classical education in the East, as well as the influence of philosophers like Seneca and Plato.<ref>Ferreiro, A. (1995).

 now Portugal . He had sailed east around 550, during the period when Justinian I was attempting to reunite the Later Roman Empire through consolidation of the empire's faith. In 529, Justinian had placed the Neoplatonic Academy under state control, effectively signifying the end of pagan philosophical teaching. Later, in 553, Origen was also anathematized, effectively crushing Origenism. The Codex Justinianus enforced Nicaean Christianity over all other rival doctrines. <mask> may have chosen to flee east to avoid Rome's anti-intellectual policies, which possible explains his relatively gentle approach to the Suevi in Gallaecia. Although <mask>'s training as a monk was based on the ascetic Desert Fathers of the Egyptian desert, he lessened their severe monastic regulations to aid the Iberians to adapt.When converting the Suevi, he avoided enforcing Catholicism, preferring persuasion over coercion. He also wrote his sermon in a deliberately rustic style, incorporating ungrammatical Latin constructions and local vulgarisms. In his instructions, <mask> objects to the astrological custom of naming the days of the week after gods (planets). Due to his influence Portuguese and Galician (which, at the time, were one single language), alone among the Romance languages, assumed names for the days from numbers and Catholic liturgy, rather than from pagan deities. Galician has largely returned to the earlier nomenclature. Notes

<mask><mask> (born Bo Stagman on January 18, 1964 and earlier known as Bosse Belsen) is a Swedish rock/glam metal singer who is the former lead-singer for Shotgun Messiah and is currently the founder and frontman for Zan Clan and reunited Easy Action. Musical career
<mask><mask> is probably best known internationally as the original lead singer for the 1980s glam metal band Shotgun Messiah (1985–90). However, he was already well known in his native Sweden by the time he was 18, when his band Easy Action (1981–85) toured Scandinavia and soon thereafter signed a contract with Warner Bros. Records. Easy Action was the first Swedish music artist ever to sign a worldwide deal. His music career started earlier when he played drums in band such as Belsen Boys, Alarm X and Beauty Box. He was also singer in Brilliant Boys. Zinny's work with Easy Action included one album as well as a Swedish slasher movie titled Blood Tracks, which Easy Action both provided the music for and starred in.After a few years of enjoying local success touring the Scandinavia region, <mask> wanted the band to try to make a go of it in the U.S., while the other members of the band were hesitant to leave their home country. These conflicting views eventually prompted <mask> to leave Sweden for New York and start looking for a new band. He was soon contacted by fellow Swedes Tim Sköld and Harry Cody and asked to join Kingpin (the band that would eventually become Shotgun Messiah). While still performing under the name Kingpin, the band recorded the album Welcome to Bop City. After being signed to Relativity Records and relocating to Hollywood, California, they changed their name to Shotgun Messiah and remixed and released the Bop City album as Shotgun Messiah's self-titled debut album. The album Shotgun Messiah was a moderate success, spawning three fairly popular singles as well as two music

 videos for MTV and reaching #52 on the American Billboard chart. Eventually though, personality and creative differences between Harry, Tim and Zinny began to grow and led to <mask>'s departure from Shotgun Messiah in 1990.After the split, <mask> went back to Stockholm to recalibrate, but due to various personal problems (a divorce, the death of his father, his sister's cancer diagnosis, and his own battle with a stomach disease), it would be over four years before the eventual 1994 release of the album Citizen of Wasteland, credited to his new band Zan Clan. The album saw rather limited success. In 2002, <mask> would record and release the solo album City Boy Blues which enjoyed moderate commercial and critical success in Scandinavia and earned distinction as the "Comeback Album of the Year" in the UK´s Classic Rock Magazine but failed to garner much attention in the U.S.

Zinny then signed a TV contract to be the Tour Manager and Mentor for a band called Tribal Ink for the TV show Wannabe in 2002. Shortly thereafter, Zinny would resurrect the Zan Clan with a new line up including producer/guitarist/songwriter friend Chris Laney. In 2005, the Zan Clan released the album We Are Zan Clan, Who The Fuck Are You in addition to opening a series of shows in Europe for Whitesnake and Queensrÿche. Easy Action reunion
In 2006, Zinny reunited with his former Easy Action bandmate, guitarist Kee Marcello (who had served a stint in the band Europe in the interim) for a Reunion gig at Sweden Rock Festival. This performance led to more shows for Easy Action, including serving as the opening act for Twisted Sister on their farewell tour in 2007.In 2008, Easy Action released a new single "Jack's Back" (Produced by Chris Laney) and opened up The Speedway Grand Prix at Ullevi in Gothenburg. This tune remained on the singles chart in Sweden for weeks. At one point later in the

 2000s, it was reported that <mask> and Easy Action were finishing up the recording of their new album, which had the working title of Looking Up Your Old Address. However, in 2013, it was revealed that the Looking Up Your Old Address album would not be released, as Easy Action had split up once again, with Kee and Zinny parting ways. Influences and Tributes
Zinny was heavily influenced by such bands as Aerosmith, Kiss, Sex Pistols, and Thin Lizzy, inspirations which are reflected in his songwriting and singing style. In addition to his work with numerous bands, he has also performed on several tribute albums. He contributed to the FastLane Records release Tricked Out, a tribute to Cheap Trick, where he performed the CT hit "Surrender."He later also contributed a cover version of the Thin Lizzy song "Dedication" to the A Tribute to Phil Lynott album. Recent years/Currently
<mask> is reportedly in the process of writing an autobiography titled The Lies and Faults of <mask> J<mask> which will reveal everything, from groupies to "behind-the-scenes" content within his bands and the record industry. On April 19, 2013, Zinny released the single "The Perfect Age of Rock n Roll," which also appears on the soundtrack for the American movie of the same name starring Peter Fonda. Later in 2013, Zinny also put together the band Shotgun, an idea proposed by his old musical partner, Chris Laney, and Rob Marcello (not to be confused with his former Easy Action bandmate, Kee Marcello) in commemoration of the upcoming 25th anniversary of Shotgun Messiah's highly acclaimed debut album. Pekka "Stixx" Ollinen, original drummer in Shotgun Messiah also came on board for this celebration tour, which included stints at The Club in STHLM; Sticky Fingers in GTB; and a number of Festivals such as Grebbestad Festival, Skogsröjet, and the grand finale at Väsby Rock Festival.

<mask> (13 January 1882 - 20 June 1976) was a German jurist and public official who became a leading politician (DNVP, NSDAP) in what was then the Free State of Brunswick ("Freistaat Braunschweig"). Life
<mask> was born in Münchehof, a small manufacturing country town focused on limestone extraction and cement production, positioned in the countryside between Braunschweig to its north and Göttingen to its south. After leaving school he studied jurisprudence, passing his Level 1 national law exams in 1903. As a student he became a member of what became the "Alte Turnerschaft Eberhardina-Markomannia Tübingen" student fraternity. He received his doctorate at the University of Leipzig in 1907   His dissertation concerned property and possession rights in respect of game killed by poachers and the duties and rights of lawful huntsmen and gamekeepers against poachers ("Über den Eigentumserwerb am Wilderergute und die Ansprüche und rechtlichen Befugnisse des Jagdberechtigten gegen den Wilderer"). Küchenthal entered the public service a court assessor, and shortly afterwards joined the public prosecution service. Later he became a judge in the regional court and a permanent member of the Berlin-based Imperial Oversight Office for Private Insurance.He volunteered to fight in the First World War and was also active in the Ministry of War. After his promotion to the higher ranks of the public service (als "Oberregierungsrat") in 1920 he worked in the tax department of the Regional Finance Office
in Hanover. He joined the German National People's Party ("Deutschnationale Volkspartei" / DNVP) in 1919, remaining a member till 1933. From 22 January 1926 till 13 December 1927 he served in the regional government under Gerhard Marquordt as Minister for Finance and the Economy. His term in office was characterised by attempts to cut back on public spending. Between 1928 and 1930 he took over as head of the Regional Finance Office, based in Hanover. Following the

The Interior and Education ministry went to the NSDAP member, Anton Franzen who was succeeded by fellow-Nazi Dietrich Klagges on 15 September 1931. Klagges expanded his portfolio, replacing  <mask> as Braunschweig's Minister-President, on 9 May 1933. Adolf Hitler surrendered his Austrian citizenship in 1925 and submitted an application for German citizenship. Under the Weimar constitution (Art. 41 para. 2) he would never be able to become President without it.A (bizarrely, anonymous) application was quietly submitted on Hitler's behalf in Thuringia. The application was not successful. Over the next seven years applications for German citizenship were submitted by or on behalf of Hitler in various other parts of Germany, but it became increasingly clear that they were all being blocked by Berlin, mindful of Hitler's attempt to overthrow the government back in 1923. Along the way, it was discovered by eagle eyed readers of the constitution that if Hitler could be found a job in government service, German citizenship might be conferred automatically. Various attempts to find the Nazi leader a low profile appointment floundered, partly because of resistance in the political establishment and partly because Hitler had more important preoccupations than accepting a low profile appointment in government service. In 1932 the focus of those attempting to obtain citizenship for the party leader switched to the Free State of Brunswick/Braunschweig. Braunschweig was small and for most purposes outside the usual ambit of

The political leadership, including Minister-President <mask> of the DNVP, were supportive. <mask> suggested that Hitler might be appointed mayor of the little town of Stadtoldendorf. That was rejected by other parties in the coalition, however. In the end it is not clear whether it was the support of the regional government under <mask> that secured Hitler's appointment to a government post in Braunschweig, and how far it was the implicit threat of the Nazi Party to pull out of the governing coalition which would have triggered new regional elections (which all parties had good reason to fear at that point). On 26 February 1932 Adolf Hitler was duly appointed to the appropriately obscure post of "Regierungsrat der braunschweigschen Gesandtschaft beim Reichsrat" (loosely "Government official of the Braunschweig delegation to the National Council"). Citizenship for Adolf Hitler followed, backed by the practical support of the Free State of Brunswick/Braunschweig led by <mask>thal.It was, in its way, an important contribution. On 1 May 1933 <mask> joined the Nazi Party less than two months after the Enabling Act of 1933 which enshrined in statute the transformation of Germany into a one-party state. After Oskar Stübben had been persuaded to resign the position, <mask> took over as president of the board at the Braunschweig State Bank. (Stübben was not Jewish and he was certainly not a communist, but he was not a Nazi either.) <mask> remained in charge at the bank until relieved of his duties there on 13 August 1945 in the aftermath of another national military defeat. He spent the rest of his life as a farmer in Hedeper. References
