 <mask> converted from an advocate of centralism to its adversary, and in the spring of 1928, <mask> and Radić waged a bitter parliamentary battle against the ratification of the Treaty of Nettuno with Italy, having actually secured a majority in the parliament, but not being able to lead the government. This in turn mobilised nationalist opposition in Serbia but provoked a violent reaction from the governing majority including death threats.In the summer of 1928, Radić was assassinated in Parliament, and the opposition started a boycott of the parliament, insisting on new elections. In 1929, the January 6th Dictatorship was instituted by the King, and <mask> was interned by the authorities in Brus, Serbia for a period of two years, when finally in 1931 his health problems allowed him to be released and emigrate. While in Paris, in 1933 he published the "King Alexander's Dictatorship" (La dictature du roi Alexandre), a book in which he criticized Alexander and blamed him for Yugoslavia's political turmoil since 1918. He advocated for a federal and republican structure for Yugoslavia. He also wrote a "Letter to the Serbs" the same year, in which he advocated an understanding between the Serbs and the Croats based on equality of the two nations, stating that "any other way and solution would mean eternal friction, mutual conflicts and wars, which would eventually end disastrously for both" (svaki drugi put i rješenje značilo bi vječite trzavice, međusobne sukobe i ratove, koji bi se na kraju katastrofalno završili za oboje). In May 1933 <mask> held talks with Branimir Jelić and Stjepan Radić's eldest son Vlatko. He died in exile in Prague in 1936.References

<mask> (born September 10, 1947 in Sustinente, Italy) is an Italian composer of contemporary classical music. Biography

He studied at the Conservatory in Bologna where he got his diploma in musical composition with Giacomo Manzoni and another diploma in choral music with Tito Gotti. He started his activity as a conductor as well, founding the Nuovo Ensemble Bruno Maderna in Florence. He taught musical composition at the Milan Conservatory, Florence, Pesaro Conservatory and Bologna Conservatory. In his earliest works, from Musica per un’azione immaginaria to L’art pour l’art?, he tries to incorporate graphical elements into the music, and in so doing, he clearly shows his structuralist approach, which only later becomes more informal. Nafshi, Recit and other compositions show a turning point in his way of composing, since he pays more attention to the form, which is thought of as a synthesis of a fluid episodic multiplicity. Through his Pierrot series he was able to reveal a ‘melodic’ component of his music which broadens in the opera Trionfo della notte (1986–87 season at the Teatro Comunale di Bologna), which won the Premio Abbiati as the best composition of the year.Among his later works are Romanza alla notte No. 2, for violin and orchestra (Parma, June 20, 1991), proof of the deep relationship existing between the composer and Pier Paolo Pasolini's poetics. He dedicated to Pasolini Il glicine, for soprano, reciting voice, amplified flute and violin (Milan, July 2, 1993).

<mask> (; August 4, 1922 – October 21, 2015) was an American political theorist and writer on contemporary politics. A political theorist for fifty years, <mask> became Professor of Politics, Emeritus, at Princeton University, where he taught from 1973 to 1987. During a teaching career which spanned more than forty years, <mask> also taught at the University of California, Berkeley, University of California, Santa Cruz, Oberlin College, Oxford University, Cornell University, and University of California, Los Angeles. He was a notable teacher of undergraduate and particularly graduate students, serving as a mentor to many students who themselves became prominent scholars and teachers of political theory. Academic career
After graduating from Oberlin College, <mask> received his doctorate from Harvard University in 1950, for a dissertation entitled Conservatism and Constitutionalism: A Study in English Constitutional Ideas, 1760–1785. After teaching briefly at Oberlin, <mask> taught political theory at the University of California, Berkeley, from 1954 to 1970, and built a political theory program by bringing Norman Jacobson, John H. Schaar, Hanna Fenichel Pitkin, and Michael Rogin into the department. One of <mask>'s central concern was how the history of political thought could contribute to understanding contemporary political dilemmas and predicaments.He played a significant role in the Free Speech Movement and with John Schaar interpreted that movement to the rest of the world. During the seventies and eighties he published frequently for The New York Review of Books. He also wrote opinion pieces and reviews for The New York Times. In 1980, he was the

At Princeton, <mask> led a successful faculty effort to pass a resolution urging university trustees to divest from endowment investment in firms that supported South African apartheid. <mask> left Berkeley in the fall of 1970 for the University of California, Santa Cruz, where he taught until the spring of 1972. From 1973 through 1987, he was a professor of politics at Princeton University.<mask> served on the editorial boards of many scholarly journals, including Political Theory, the leading journal of the field in the Anglo-American world. He consulted for various scholarly presses, foundations and public entities, including Peace Corps, American Council of Learned Societies, and the Social Science Research Council. <mask> also served as president of the Society for Legal and Political Philosophy. Political theorist
<mask> was instrumental in founding what came to be known as the Berkeley School of political theory. His approach to the history of political thought offered an original perspective that constituted a formidable challenge to more classical approaches to the study of the history of political thought. It equally challenged behavioralism, the reigning orthodoxy in political science departments. He has been compared to thinkers like Eric Voegelin, Hannah Arendt, and Leo Strauss.In his classic Politics and Vision, <mask> formulates an interpretative approach to the history of political thought, based on careful study of different theoretical traditions. He pays particular attention to how the latter contribute to the changing

texts: meanings of a received political vocabulary, including notions of authority, obligation, power, justice, citizenship, and the state. <mask>'s approach also had a bearing on contemporary problems and questions and he notoriously defined the inquiry into the history of political thought, and the study of different traditions and forms of theorizing that have shaped it "as a form of political education." <mask>'s approach to the study of political theory consisted of a historical-minded inquiry into the history of political thought to inform the practice of political theory in the present. A consummate reader of texts, he carefully combined attention to both the intellectual and political contexts in which an author intervened and the genres of writing he deployed, with an eye to understanding how a particular body of work shed light on a specific political predicament. But this was no antiquarian exercise. It rather consisted of an attempt to "understand some aspect of the historical past [that] is also conscious of the historical character and locus of [the inquirer's] own understanding.Historicity has to do with the convergence of the two, and the inquirer’s contribution of his present is crucial." Similarly, his classic essay "Political Theory as a Vocation", written in the context of the Cold War, the Vietnam War and the Civil Rights Movement, mounted a seething critique of Behaviorism and how it impaired the ability to grasp the crises of the time. Thirty years later, he explicitly formulated the importance of political theory and the study of political thought as “primarily a civic and secondarily an academic activity.<mask>'s 2001 study of Alexis de

 Tocqueville, Tocqueville Between Two Worlds, constitutes his second summum opus. Cornel West has called it <mask>'s masterpiece, the crowning achievement of “the greatest political theorist of and for democracy of our time.”

<mask>'s involvement in the events of the sixties represented a formative experience that set the stage for the transition from an imaginative and erudite scholar of political thought to an original political thinker in his own right. In essays dealing with major thinkers of the recent past, including some of the most formidable bodies of work of the twentieth century, Wolin probed different approaches to both understanding the nature of theory and its bearing on the political from a perspective clearly aligned with the principles of participatory democracy. From this perspective, <mask> engaged with a vast array of thinkers: Theodor W. Adorno & Max Horkheimer, Hannah Arendt, John Dewey, Michel Foucault, Leo Strauss, Harvey C. Mansfield, Karl Marx, Friedrich Nietzsche, Michael Oakeshott, Karl Popper, John Rawls, Richard Rorty, and Max Weber. Politically, <mask> penned essays on a variety of themes and figures, including terrorism, conservatism, Jimmy Carter, Henry Kissinger, and Ronald Reagan.His The Presence of the Past offered an original critique of Reaganism, its discourse and practice, and a series of searching reflections on the bicentennial of the American Constitution. His last book, Democracy Incorporated (2008) formulates a scathing critique of the administration of George W. Bush and its war on terror and a plea for the recovery of democratic values and practices. In these interventions, <mask> formulated an original

texts: non-Marxist critique of capitalism and the fate of democratic political life in the present. In his effort to think about the fate of democracy in the United States, he formulated a novel theorization of modern and postmodern forms of power and how these shaped the limits and horizons of political life in the late twentieth and early twentieth-first centuries. While influenced by Marx's critique of capitalism as a form of power, <mask>'s political thought is decidedly non-Marxist in his insistence on participatory democracy, the primacy of the political, and the conviction that a radical theory of democracy requires mapping the forms of power beyond the economy. <mask>'s political thought is particularly concerned with the fate of democracy at the hands of bureaucratic imperatives, elitism, and managerial principles and practices. His ideas of "inverted totalitarianism" and "fugitive democracy" constitute well-known signatures of his reflections.Another signature contribution is his account of the liberal-democratic state, which Wendy Brown has characterized as a "neo-Weberian" account of the state, "heavy with rationalities and bureaucratic domination; it is a Marxist-structuralist state, neither identical with nor a simple instrument of capitalism but complexly entwined with it. It is an administrative and penetrative state - those tentacles are everywhere and on everyone, especially the most disempowered; they do not honor public/private distinctions, political/economic distinctions, or even legal/extra-legal distinctions...the contemporary state is a complex amalgam of political, economic, administrative and discursive powers."

 of the state and its complex relationship to capitalism, <mask> forged the idea of "fugitive democracy." In his view, democracy is not a fixed state form, but a political experience in which ordinary people are active political actors. In this construction "fugitive" stands for the ways in which contemporary forms of power have made this aspiration an evanescent and momentary political experience. Personal life
<mask> was born in Chicago and raised in Buffalo, New York. At the age of nineteen, <mask> interrupted his studies at Oberlin College to become a US Army Air Forces bombardier/navigator, serving on the Consolidated B-24 Liberator.<mask> flew 51 different combat missions serving in the South Pacific, specifically the islands surrounding the Philippines, during World War II. <mask>'s team were tasked with Douglas MacArthur's strategy of conducting raids against the Japanese Navy, which required flying low over Japanese destroyers in order to bomb them. This was incredibly risky, as the B-24 was a "big, lumbering aircraft" which was hard to manoeuvre, and this cost the lives of many of <mask>'s fellow airmen, "which proved disastrous." <mask> mentioned that his flight mates were all very young at the time, being between nineteen and twenty-four years of age. <mask> mentioned that several of his flight mates, both at the time and years later, suffered psychological problems as a result of their activities in the War.

<mask> (January 10, 1923 – November 7, 2020) was a Swiss American chef who served as Executive Chef of the White House from 1966 to 1987. Haller's death was announced on November 9, 2020. Early life
Haller was born in Altdorf, Switzerland, in 1923. He was of French descent on his mother's side and German descent on his father's. His father was manager of a factory and loved food, and as a young boy Haller loved to cook. His mother planted a large kitchen garden, and as a child Haller would fetch fresh vegetables from the garden and watch as she cooked them. It was his father who encouraged him to be a chef.Haller recalls that when he was 14 years old, his father said, "<mask>, why don't you be a chef? You can travel all over the world. And you will never have to worry about a job. People everywhere have to eat." Haller enrolled in an apprenticeship when he was 16 years old, and trained at the famed Park Hotel in the ski resort town of Davos, Switzerland. After graduating from high school at the age of 18, he served in the Swiss Army, and although World War II was raging he never saw combat. Discharged at the age of 20, he spent several years working at the exclusive Hotel Des Balances in Lucerne, where he attended the Hotel Training School—considered one of the best cooking academies in the world.He then moved to the five-star Hotel Belle-Vue-Palace in Bern, and then the Grand Hotel in Bürgenstock. While working there as chef tournant (filling in as needed on stations in the kitchen), the hotel owner asked if he would move to Canada to cook at another company-owned property, and Haller readily agreed. Move to America
Haller had longed to follow other European chefs and live in the United States, but he first emigrated at the age of 25 to Montreal, Quebec, Canada, in 1948, where he practiced his skills as the chef entremetier at the exclusive Ritz-Carlton Montreal, preparing appetizers, soups, vegetables, pastas, potatoes, and eggs. Haller emigrated to the United States in 1953,

(1911 – 30 September 1997) was a Japanese naval aviator and warrant flying officer of the Imperial Japanese Navy who flew a floatplane from the long-range submarine aircraft carrier  and conducted the Lookout Air Raids in southern Oregon on September 9, 1942, making him the only Axis pilot during World War II to aerial bomb the contiguous United States. Using incendiary bombs, his mission was to start massive forest fires in the Pacific Northwest near the city of Brookings, Oregon with the objective of drawing the U.S. military's resources away from the Pacific Theater. The strategy was also later used in the Japanese fire balloon campaign. Early life and military career
<mask> joined the Imperial Japanese Navy in 1932 and became a pilot in 1933. <mask> also had a younger brother who was killed in the war. Pearl Harbor and U.S. West Coast

Fujita was on board  during the attack on Pearl Harbor, where the I-25 and three other submarines patrolled a line  north of Oahu. <mask>'s plane, a Yokosuka E14Y "Glen" seaplane, did not function properly, and he was unable to participate in the reconnaissance mission planned before the attack.After the attack on Pearl Harbor, I-25 patrolled along the West Coast of the United States with eight other submarines. They attacked U.S. shipping before returning to their base in Kwajalein Atoll in the Marshall Islands. They arrived there on January 11, 1942 to be refuelled and refurbished. South Pacific
I-25s next mission was to reconnoiter the Australian harbours of Sydney, Melbourne and Hobart, followed by the New Zealand harbours of Wellington and Auckland. On 17 February 1942, <mask> <mask> took off in the "Glen" for a reconnaissance flight over Sydney Harbour to examine the city's airbase. By 07:30, he had returned to I-25, disassembled the "Glen" and stowed it in the water-tight  hangar.

 The next mission was a similar flight over Melbourne, Australia.Fujita took off from Cape Wickham on King Island at the western end of Bass Strait, about halfway between Victoria and Tasmania. The floatplane was launched on 26 February for its flight to Melbourne over Port Phillip Bay. Fujita's next reconnaissance flight in Australia was over Hobart on 1 March. I-25 then headed for New Zealand, where Fujita flew a reconnaissance flight over Wellington on 8 March. He flew over Auckland on 13 March, followed by Fiji on 17 March. The submarine returned to its base at Kwajalein on 31 March. Pacific Northwest
On 28 May, Fujita performed a reconnaissance of Kodiak, Alaska, in preparation for the invasion of the Aleutian Islands.On 21 June, I-25 shelled the U.S. base of Fort Stevens, near Astoria, Oregon. Fujita was on the deck of I-25 during the attack. Bombing Oregon

<mask> himself suggested the idea of a submarine-based seaplane to bomb military targets, including ships at sea, and attacks on the U.S. mainland, especially the strategic Panama Canal. The idea was approved, and the mission was given to . Submarine aircraft carriers such as the giant I-400-class submarines would be developed specifically to bomb the Panama Canal. At 06:00 on 9 September, I-25 surfaced west of the Oregon/California border where she launched the Glen, flown by Fujita and Petty Officer Okuda Shoji, with a  load of two incendiary bombs. Fujita dropped two bombs, one on Wheeler Ridge on Mount Emily in Oregon.The location of the other bomb is unknown. The Wheeler Ridge bomb started a small fire  due east of Brookings, which U.S. Forest Service employees were able to extinguish. Rain the night before had made the forest very damp, and the bombs were rendered essentially ineffective. <mask>'s plane had been spotted by two men, Howard Gardner and Bob

 Larson, at the Mount Emily fire lookout tower in the Siskiyou National Forest. Two other lookouts (the Chetco Point Lookout and the Long Ridge Lookout) reported the plane, but could not see it due to heavy fog. The plane was seen and heard by many people, especially when Fujita flew over Brookings in both directions. At about noon that day, Howard Gardner at the Mount Emily Lookout reported seeing smoke.The four U.S. Forest Service employees discovered that the fire was caused by a Japanese bomb. Approximately  of fragments, including the nose of the bomb, were turned over to the United States Army. After the bombing, I-25 came under attack by a USAAF aircraft on patrol, forcing the submarine to dive and hide on the ocean floor off Port Orford. The American attacks caused only minor damage, and Fujita flew a second bombing sortie three weeks later on 29 September. Fujita used the Cape Blanco Light as a beacon. After 90 minutes flying east, he dropped his bombs and reported seeing flames, but the bombing remained unnoticed in the U.S. The submarine torpedoed and sank the SS Camden and SS Larry Doheny and then sailed for home.On its way to Japan, I-25 sank the Soviet submarine L-16, which was in transit between Dutch Harbor, Alaska, and San Francisco, California, mistaking it for an American submarine (Japan and the USSR were not at war at the time). The two attacks on Oregon in September 1942 were the only enemy aircraft bombings on the contiguous United States and were the second time the continental United States was attacked by such aircraft during World War II, following the bombing of Dutch Harbor in Unalaska, Alaska three months earlier. Later life
<mask> continued as an Imperial Japanese Navy pilot, mainly in reconnaissance duties, until 1944, when he was transferred to the training of kamikaze pilots. After the war

 he opened a hardware store in Ibaraki Prefecture, and later worked at a company making wire. Fujita was invited to Brookings in 1962, after the Japanese government was assured he would not be tried as a war criminal. He gave the City of Brookings his family's 400-year-old katana in friendship. Ashamed of his actions during the war, Fujita had intended to use the sword to commit seppuku if he were given a hostile reception.However, the town treated him with respect and affection, although his visit still raised some controversy. Impressed by his welcome in the United States, during his visit, he promised to invite Brookings students to Japan. Despite the bankruptcy of his company, <mask> made good on his promise by co-sponsoring the visit of three female students from Brookings-Harbor High School to Japan in 1985. During the visit, Fujita received a dedicatory letter from an aide of President Ronald Reagan "with admiration for your kindness and generosity." <mask> returned to Brookings in 1990, 1992, and 1995. In 1992, he planted a tree at the bomb site as a gesture of peace. In 1995, he moved the samurai sword from the Brookings City Hall into the new library's display case.Fujita helped to gather money to build the library. He was made an honorary citizen of Brookings several days before his death at a hospital in Tsuchiura, Ibaraki Prefecture, on September 30, 1997, at the age of 85. In October 1998, his daughter, Yoriko Asakura, buried some of Fujita's ashes at the bomb site. See also

In 1920, <mask> joined the "Akhil Bharat Chatra Sammelan" ("All-India Student Conference") in Ahmedabad. He befriended Muzaffar Ahmed and the poet, Kazi Nazrul Islam. After <mask> joined the Workers and Peasants Party (WPP) in April 1926, he began mobilizing the jute mill‐workers of Bengal to form the Bengal Jute Workers' Association. His effectiveness as a trade union activist and his attempts to win revolutionaries over to the WPP drew official attention to him. In order to avoid arrest, <mask> left for Europe in May 1927.There, he met international communist leaders and was soon in Moscow. He attended the 6th Congress of the Communist International (Comintern). Differences with the Comintern
Tagore differed with the Comintern on the "Colonial Question". Later, he came to favor Leon Trotsky's theory of "Permanent Revolution" over Joseph Stalin's notion of "Socialism in One Country". He also came to oppose the Comintern's "Popular Front" strategy in the 1930s, regarding it as a betrayal of proletarian revolution. At the 1928 Communist International congress <mask> had sought to challenge the role of M.N. Roy in the organization.<mask> had turned hostile towards Stalin,

 possibly as in reaction to his failed bid to gain recognition from the Communist International in 1928. On his return to India in 1934 he appealed to the Communist Party of India (CPI) to abandon its ultra-left line. Although the CPI would later moderate its positions after the Seventh Congress of the Communist International, <mask> broke with the CPI. In May 1934 he set up an 'initiative committee' for the founding of a new party. The Communist League
Tagore formed the Communist League of India on 1 August 1934. Other founders of the Communist League included Sudhir Dasgupta, Prabhat Sen, Ranjit Majumdar and Arun Banerjee. The Communist League and the peasantry
After the formation of the Communist League <mask> began touring the Bengal country-side, organizing peasants to struggle for abolishing the zamindari system.In early 1938 <mask> built a peasants wing, the ‘Bangiyo Pradeshik Kisan Sabha’ (BPKS), separate from the CPI-led Krishak Samiti. <mask>'s BPKS demanded abolition of the zamindari system without giving any compensation to landlords, free distribution of land among the cultivators and agricultural labourers, minimization of revenue demands and cancellation of debts to moneylenders. <mask> in Assam
In 1941 the Communist League had been renamed the "Communist Party of India", but in March 1943 it was rechristened the Revolutionary Communist Party of India (RCPI) in order to differentiate it from the "official" Communist Party of India. The RCPI was the first left organization to established itself in Assam. In November 1938 <mask> visited Assam and met with a group of students and youth. His visit was organized by the Congressman Debranath Sarma. A

This time he visited Khagen Barbarua at his village in Upper Assam and discussed building the party organization in the province. <mask> was expelled from Assam on 18 December 1941. Split in the RCPI
After his return to India, <mask> had been arrested a number of times by the British colonial administration and was in an out of prison for most of a decade. After being released from prison in 1948, <mask> was confronted with a sector within the RCPI, led by Pannalal Dasgupta, which insisted on turning the campaign of building panchayats into a general armed insurrection. <mask> argued, instead, that armed revolution was premature in India. The Dasgupta faction assembled an All India Party Conference in Birbhum in 1948.<mask> presented his resignation from the RCPI Central Committee, a request that the Birbhum conference rejected. Following the conference Dasgupta's followers began to gather arms and to prepare for armed struggle. <mask>, for his part, addressed a public meeting in Calcutta at which he denounced the insurrectional line of Dasgupta. <mask>'s speech pushed the Dasgupta group to accept his resignation from the Central Committee. Half a year later <mask> gathered his followers for a separate party conference, calling it the 5th Party Congress, in Burdwan. Thus there came to be two parallel RCPIs, one led by Dasgupta and one led by <mask>. The former grouping represented the majority in the RCPI.The latter of the two parties came to be known as 'RCPI (Tagore)'. It was led by <mask> until his death in 1974. Literary works

<mask> (1935 – August 17, 2006), was an American physicist and parapsychologist. Biography
<mask> was born in Birmingham, Alabama. He received his Ph.D. in physics from the University of Maryland in 1964. He received over a dozen patents and published more than a hundred papers in scientific journals. <mask> said he had undergone a Zen enlightenment experience in 1966 while walking in a field at the University of Maryland. This led him to reassess quantum mechanics, finding its indeterminacy incomplete. He worked at the Ballistic Research Laboratories of the US Army's Aberdeen Proving Ground in Maryland.He wrote several articles which appeared in the Journal of Arthur M. Young's "Institute for the Study of Consciousness" ( founded in Berkeley in 1972). These papers greatly interested Nick Herbert and Saul-Paul Sirag, who invited him to talk to the Fundamental Fysiks Group in the mid-70s. In 1981, <mask> founded the Walker Cancer Research Institute, a nonprofit organization based in Aberdeen, Maryland, which funds public awareness of the risk of cancer and research for a cure. <mask> <mask> died, aged 70, on August 17, 2006, at Harford Memorial Hospital in Havre de Grace, Maryland.

 1979, <mask> and Richard Mattuck published a parapsychology paper proposing a quantum explanation for psychokinesis. Physicist Victor J. Stenger wrote that their explanation contained assumptions, not supported by any scientific evidence. According to Stenger their paper is "filled with impressive looking equations and calculations that give the appearance of placing psychokinesis on a firm scientific footing...Yet look what they have done. They have found the value of one unknown number (wavefunction steps) that gives one measured number (the supposed speed of PK-induced motion). This is numerology, not science." Martin Gardner noted that <mask>'s parapsychological work was not supported by any scientific evidence and his quantum mechanical calculations to explain paranormal phenomena and God were an example of pseudoscience. In the late 1990s <mask> wrote 'The Fabric of Reality', about half of that work was published as The Physics of Consciousness. The book shows how an observer collapses the wave state and actualizes reality from the probability field of the quantum mechanical process responsible for the creation of human consciousness. <mask> expanded on that with 'The Magic of Mind' which remained unpublished at the time of his death.Taken together, <mask>'s books moved the study of consciousness beyond any previous understanding and showed that something of us survives death and "opens the door to paranormal phenomena and God as Quantum Mind."

<mask> is a prominent rabbi, with a reputation as both a political and a theological liberal in Conservative Judaism. He is the former senior rabbi of Temple Israel Center in White Plains, New York. Since September 2020, he has served as the Vice Chancellor for Religious Life and Engagement at the Jewish Theological Seminary of America. Education and career

A 1967 graduate of the Bronx High School of Science, <mask> holds the A.B. degree from Harvard College and a PhD. (in Philosophy) from Princeton University. He was ordained a Rabbi in 1975 by The Jewish Theological Seminary of America (JTS).He has served on the faculty of JTS since 1976, currently serving as Adjunct Assistant Professor of Jewish philosophy, in addition to his duties as a congregational rabbi. From 1984 to 1992 he served as dean of the Rabbinical School at JTS. He subsequently became rabbi of Temple Israel Center in White Plains, New York, following the retirement of Rabbi Arnold S. Turetsky. <mask> has served as Chairman of the Board of the Masorti Foundation for Conservative Judaism in Israel, and as a member of the Committee on Jewish Law and Standards of the Rabbinical Assembly. In 2006, his name was listed as one of the frontrunners for the Chancellor of the Jewish Theological Seminary of America, to replace Chancellor Ismar Schorsch upon his retirement. Arnold Eisen was ultimately chosen for the position. Philosophy of Conservative Judaism
<mask>, in his writings about the Torah and the nature of divine revelation, is a leader within Conservative Judaism in articulating a position between the traditional view that the Torah is of divine origin, and a secular view, in which the Torah is seen entirely as a work of human creation.He writes, "It is the particular characteristic of Conservative Judaism to insist that religious authority is a partnership, that it comes from the reality of a revealing God and the

 equally inescapable reality of a seeking, evolving community through which God's words get expressed over time." The Torah, according to <mask>, "is not a
record of commanding utterances from God, but rather a record of the religious quests of a people, and of their understanding of how
God’s will commands them." <mask>'s liberalism and interest in philosophy reflect his role in Conservative Judaism as a leading scholar and interpreter of the works of Abraham Joshua Heschel (1907–1972). Heschel, a rabbi who escaped the Holocaust in Europe through the help of Hebrew Union College and ultimately joined the faculty of Jewish Theological Seminary, became famous not only for his many religious and philosophical commentaries, but also for his social activism and support of the civil rights movement. In the 1950s and '60s, the two most famous scholars at Jewish Theological Seminary were Heschel and Mordechai Kaplan (1881–1983). <mask> began his studies at Jewish Theological Seminary at a time when both Kaplan and Heschel were living. Both Kaplan and Heschel confronted more traditional elements within Conservative Judaism, but each of them sought to redefine Judaism in different ways.While Kaplan favored a positivist, rationalist, and scientific approach to Judaism, Heschel's approach was philosophical, mystical, and spiritual. In effect, Heschel and Kaplan offered competing approaches to the liberalization of Jewish theology. <mask>'s liberalism could be said to reflect Heschel's own political activism. According to Neil Gillman, a historian of Conservative Judaism, "Heschel insisted that his turn to political activism was prompted by his experience of living in Europe in the decades before World War II. He had been a personal witness to political oppression and was painfully aware that many otherwise good people stood on the sidelines and did not intervene. He was not going to repeat that

 pattern in America." Heschel's mystical spirituality lead him to become a champion within American Jewry of liberal causes and political activism.But <mask> is not a follower of Heschel, in the same sense that Kaplan had followers within Conservative Judaism. Rather, he is a follower of what he understands to be Heschel's tradition. For <mask>, Jewish law cannot be expressed solely through a positivist legal framework. It is motivated by an underlying and evolving sense of God's will through a process in which human beings play a critical role. To find precedent for changing Jewish law, <mask> analyzes evolving Jewish moral and legal traditions. Just as Heschel did, he turns to aggadah, the non-legalistic writings that are part of the oral and written tradition of Torah scholarship. He writes that Judaism has developed a precedent over time that rejects "the practice of punishing people, and causing them undue suffering, for things they are not responsible for."Ultimately, his proposal for a new halakhic response to homosexuality was based on this precedent. Proposed takkanah on homosexuality
<mask>'s prominence as both a political and theological liberal within Conservative Judaism is reflected in the role he played in the movement's recent debates on the issue of homosexuality. As a member of the Committee on Jewish Law and Standards (CJLS), he authored a proposed teshuvah (responsa) arguing that the biblical prohibition on male homosexuality should be overturned. In doing so, he proposed that the Conservative movement should accept a new, more liberal approach to halakhah (Jewish law). (<mask> originally offered his paper as a responsum, but the committee voted instead to consider it as a takkanah, requiring 13 votes for adoption.) An important difference between Conservative and Orthodox Judaism is that Conservative Judaism empowers modern rabbis to issue takkanot (decrees)

 delineating ways in which to ensure that gays and lesbians would be accorded human dignity and a respected place in Conservative communities and institutions while maintaining the authority of the traditional prohibitions against same-sex sexual activity. The Committee rejected <mask>'s takkanah. Details of this issue are discussed in Conservative Halakha. <mask>'s proposed takkanah became, in effect, a dissenting opinion. Translation and commentary on Heschel
Rabbi <mask>'s most widely known scholarly work is his translation with notes and commentaries of writings of Abraham Joshua Heschel. <mask> translated Heschel's Torah min HaShamayim BeAspaklariah shel HaDorot (Heavenly Torah as Refracted through the Generations) from the original Hebrew into English, and provided many notes, essays, and commentaries.In her forward to Heavenly Torah, Heschel's daughter Susannah Heschel describes the scope and magnitude of this translation. "<mask> (and Rabbi Leonard Levin) have done a superb job of assembling, editing, abridging, and translating a huge, not-quite-finished manuscript. Others literally died trying to translate this sprawling masterpiece. There may be some dissent from the inevitable omissions, some few typos, some doubts about <mask>'s interpretations. But on the whole, the introductions to each chapter, the explanatory notes on almost every page (including identifying Heschel's often obscure sources) are wonderful aids in working through this massive work." Heschel differed with the more legalistic approach to Torah of the Lithuanian rabbis who dominated the interpretation of halacha and the exegesis of Torah in the 20th century. He emphasized aggadah and midrash, the often speculative writings of the rabbinical sages that were outside the Torah's legal framework.Because these writings were not as heavily edited or redacted as the Mishna and Gemara, Heschel's Hebrew manuscript

"Not only is this English version a lucid and thoughtful reworking of the original text, but <mask> and Levin even manage to introduce into their translation a measure of the poeticism readers have come to expect of Heschel."

<mask> (8 October 1897 – 11 May 1963), also known as "<mask>", was one of the principal anarcho-syndicalist leaders in the rural strikes in Patagonia of Argentina in 1921. Biography

Early years and youth
<mask> was born on 8 October 1897 in the Galician village of Ferrol (A Coruña) to <mask> and Concepción Canalejo. He arrived in Buenos Aires when he was 13 years old. Fatherless, he began a life of misery and privation in Argentina. <mask> was unable to complete much of primary school. He worked in a diverse variety of jobs, suffering exploitation and punishments. Ever since he was a boy, he was attracted to anarchist ideas, particularly those of the syndicalists.In 1914, when <mask> was 17 years old, <mask> refused to join the Spanish militia to go and fight Morocco. In 1919 he embarked with the theater company Serrano-Mendoza, which visited the different Patagonic ports in Argentina and Chile. In January 1920, a popular rebellion broke out in Trelew, Chubut. It began with a strike by commercial employees which grew in support by most of the population against the governor, the police, and the large traders. <mask> arrived and began to agitate and support the striking workers, which lead to his arrest and expulsion from Chubut. Soon after he arrived in Río Gallegos, where the militant labor climate that reigned in the city attracted him. Early Political career
Before and after the theatrical performances, <mask> attended meetings of la Sociedad Obrera de Río Gallegos (Workers Society of Río Gallegos).There he would listen to Doctor José María Borrero who was a captivating orator, who suggested <mask> stay and join the union. Borrero had realized that <mask> was a militant who had a good ideological foundation and

 who knew how to express himself in the union's assemblies. <mask> abandoned the theater company and settled in Patagonia, where he enrolled as a longshoreman to work in the port. On 24 May 1920 he was chosen as Secretary General of the Workers Society of Río Gallegos. In July of that year the Workers Society, in agreement with all of the unions in the rest of the province of Santa Cruz, declared a strike of all hotel personnel and dockworkers, demanding improved wages. While the dockworkers lost the strike, but the union of waiters, peasants and cooks of the hotels continued. Involvement in the First Patagonic Strike
The situation at the beginning of 1921 was as follows: the strike in Río Gallegos and Puerto Deseado was a general strike.In addition, they had declared a boycott of three shops. On 16 January, the marine Malerba, under orders of the governor Edelmiro Correa Falcón began a suppression of the striking workers. The advisor of the Workers Society, José María Borrero, is detained, along with other members, but <mask> was able to avoid arrest. <mask> traveled clandestinely to Buenos Aires to discuss the situation in the union congress. The Organización Obrera, the official newspaper of the syndicalist FORA, published news of his arrival. He participated in the national congress as a delegate of the Workers Society of Río Gallegos, where he sought support and solidarity for the conflict in Santa Cruz. The congress, with representatives from across the country, occurred in La Plata from 29 January until 5 February.<mask> criticized the congress for the lack of solidarity for the labor movement in Patagonia. The Radical government of Hipólito Yrigoyen, allied with the big landowners, sent the army to

 Patagonia, commanded by Lieutenant Colonel Héctor Benigno Varela to evaluate the developing situation. Upon arrival and evaluation of what led up to the strike, Varela informed the government that the landowners were at fault for the exploitation that they subjected the rural workers to and that they ought to improve working conditions. He obligated both sides to lay down their arms and for the landowners to comply with the workers' demands. Upon completion of his duties, Varela returned to Buenos Aires. Involvement in the Second Patagonic Strike
The landowners refused to comply with the agreement and continued with the layoffs, held the back pay, and maintained the poor working conditions. <mask> led the Workers Society to strike for an indefinite period of time.On 25 March 1921, a general strike was declared. The landowners and the outgoing governor Correa agitated for the return of Lieutenant Colonel Varela to Santa Cruz, whereupon he began to repress and massacre the striking workers. On 15 September 1921, <mask> and his comrades depart, heading towards the farms of the cordillera of the Andes in a long journey with cars and horses. On 31 October, he had managed to incorporate into the movement the rural workers of several large farms, driving the southeast of Santa Cruz into an uprising. They requisitioned arms and food for the campaign, granting vouchers promising to eventually return the goods and occasionally taking the landowners and managers hostage. On 5 November, all of the farms in the south of Santa Cruz were totally paralyzed. Workers took control of the roads, moving in columns of 60, 100, and 200 men who marched under the black and red flag.<mask> met with the anarchist militants Graña, Sambucetti

When the three men entered Río Gallegos, they were beaten and arrested by the police. Meanwhile, the workers columns of Pintos, Ramón Outerello, and Albino Argüelles were attacked by the soldiers of Varela, suffering dozens of casualties. The movement was divided into two parts: the column of <mask> and the column of José Font (better known as Facón Grande). Until the beginning of December, <mask> had dominated all the area south of Argentino Lake and of the Viedma Lake, and his contingent was the biggest (with around 600 workers). They operated from the estancia La Anita. On 7 December, the army was nearby and the workers met in an assembly.Juan Farina, a Chilean worker, proposed that they surrender to the army and a majority of the peasants supported the decision. <mask> argued that it was necessary to continue the strike, but ultimately agrees to send two men to parley with the army and to discuss surrender, guarantees, and the fulfilment of the terms of the agreement made by Varela the year before. Upon arrival at the military encampment, the two men were immediately executed. When the army arrived at estancia La Anita and demanded the unconditional surrender of all of the striking workers. The leaders of the strike met in an assembly, where <mask> gave a dramatic speech but was ultimately ignored by a majority of the assembly, who eventually decided to surrender and end the strike. Upon their surrender, Varela's troops executed a large number of the workers. <mask>

The Argentine military and Carabiniers of Chile pursued <mask> for five days, but he managed to hide in Puerto Natales and was able to escape to Punta Arenas on a schooner, protected by allies in the Federación Obrera de Magallanes, a local trade union. Fearing capture, he escaped on a boat and made his was to Valparaíso with the ultimate destination of Iquique in the north of Chile where he worked in a saltpeter refinery. The difficult working conditions took a toll on his health, leading him to return to Valparaíso. In 1933 he traveled incognito to Río Gallegos to explain his involvement in the 1921 strike, where he made contact with his comrades and prepared an act that was, compared to the previous strike, a disaster. <mask> was immediately expelled from the province by the governor Gregores. In exile, he became less militant but never broke with anarchism. <mask> settled in Punta Arenas and managed a small hotel, which served as a meeting place of libertarians, intellectuals, and free-thinkers.He also founded the Centro Republicano Español, the Centro Gallego, a branch of the Red Cross, and a cinema named Libertad. On 11 May 1963, <mask> died in Punta Arenas at age 65. His funeral was attended by libertarians, republicans, and students (<mask> had inspired the first students' strike in Punta Arena in support of a higher wage for teachers). His tombstone can be found in the Cementerio Municipal de Punta Arenas. In his hometown, Ferrol (Galicia), there is a street named after him. See also

In 1976, the club won the 1976 Japan Soccer League and 1976 Emperor's Cup and he was selected Best Eleven. In May 1977, the club also won 1977 JSL Cup.In the summer of 1977, during the team's trip to Germany, he was spotted by coach Hennes Weisweiler of Bundesliga club 1. FC Köln. After being offered a contract by Köln he joined the club in July 1977. Okudera made his debut on 5 October 1977, becoming the first Japanese player to play top flight football in Europe, and Köln won the Bundesliga title that year.

<mask><mask>" <mask> (né Safdar; ; born 20 April 1983) is a British–American fashion designer, television personality, and author. He is one of the first openly gay South Asian men on a major show and one of the first out Muslim gay men on western television as the fashion expert for the Netflix series Queer Eye, host of the web series Dressing Funny and co-host of Next In Fashion. His memoir, Naturally Tan, was released in June 2019. Early life
<mask> "<mask>" Wasim was born and raised in South Yorkshire, England, to Muslim Pakistani parents. In his memoir, France has discussed how he felt alienated due to his experience of growing up in a strict Muslim household where homosexuality was viewed negatively, the lack of representation in media of his community and of LGBTQ South Asian people in particular, and his personal experiences of physical and verbal racism in his childhood and adult life. France said: "Our home wasn't super religious but we had a profound connection to our Muslim heritage." France's interest in fashion began at a young age, inspired by the Disney clothing that was made in his grandparents' denim factory in Bury, England, where he spent time working.By age thirteen, he had learned how to construct and embellish a denim jacket. In 2019, he allegedly learned that his grandfather had to close the factory due to the products being Disney knockoffs. France attended Hall Cross School and later Doncaster College, where he studied fashion, after which he moved to Manchester, and then to London. Career
After graduating from college, France began to work as designer and director for Zara, Selfridges, and Bershka, among other retailers, to further improve his knowledge of the wholesale business of retail; he later went on to work at a number of brands in order to learn more about manufacturing. He started in menswear and later progressed in womenswear, where he majored on his fashion degree. France commented he would often work as stylist if a high-profile client came into the stores where he was working. France began working in the United States in 2008, initially living in NYC, and immigrated to the US

<mask> (Pretoria, 21 January 1927 – Pretoria, 29 January 2013) was a South African architect noted for his contribution to religious and public architecture. Biography
Of the major Afrikaner church-architects, including for example Gerard Moerdijk, Wynand Louw, Hendrik Vermooten and J. Anthonie Smith, he designed and built the largest number of churches for the Reformed Churches in South Africa. In terms of public architecture, a prominent contribution is the Land Bank building in Pretoria. His inspiration, his example and his architecture, still live, Professor Schalk W le Roux (erstwhile  Head of the Department of Architecture University of Pretoria) wrote as follows in his obituary: During the second half of the Twentieth Century <mask> was an influential South African architect. He is best known for a fresh and personal approach to Reformed Church architecture, but this is not the only building type where his example was studied and emulated. It is because he reached beyond the simple requirement of function in his search and design, thus consciously allowing for local realities of climate, terrain, building material, building science and craftsmanship to be realistic and creative generators of structures. The resultant buildings and places celebrated land- and cityscapes with which they were contextually interwoven and expedited the development of a South African way of architectural thought, based on and advocating a contemporary worldview.The same values, fuelled by a love of history, language and country, found expression in restoration work, such as at Paul Kruger’s farm house at Boekenhoutfontein, where he paid tribute to past achievements, and also in houses and bigger buildings, such as the Land Bank building in Pretoria, where again he was true to the present – the time in which he lived and worked. Closest to his heart was possibly the building of churches and his pursuit was for a worthy and meaningful architecture embracing worship. His experimentation to achieve this can be traced in many of his subsequent buildings and designs. As a young architect, he

texts: was outspoken about the unchanging and "distinctive style of Gerard Moerdyk and Henry Vermooten" and inspired by the "refreshing modern work of Verhoef Smit and Viljoen who served as inspiration for me." He takes it further when he says: “[My] designs reflect a quest for a new form and aesthetic to express what is essential in a church building.” His striving was for a simplicity in form, line and plane that derives from and reflects the basic nature of worship in the Reformed Church, and its execution within the constraints of available funds. “The function of a church," he said to architecture students in 1955, shortly after the completion of his best known church in Parys, Free State, "is determined by public worship: it is the master builder. The building emerges from a plan and, in its turn, the plan is determined by the function of the building.” In addition, he argued, there was an inherent symbolism and aesthetic in his churches suggesting the Word of God moving from the pulpit, over the congregation and, through the windows, to the world beyond.Referring to the church in Parys he said: "As in many other designs, symbolism, based on biblical truth, is embedded in this structure. It is the symbolism of the church as a tent trekking through the desert of this temporary existence on the journey towards eternity.” The church is therefore a visual symbol of transience with the tent-shape a direct architectural translation of the concept of having no fixed abode. The architect's real contribution is to give form to the symbolic. <mask>’s three principles, applied to both religious and secular buildings, were firstly that the architecture should be contemporary, secondly that form should emerge from the meaning of the function and thirdly that the structure should be economic and affordable. A faithful adherence to these principles is probably one of the reasons his buildings have withstood the test of time. As an architect, he had the rare experience that his designs remained appreciated and current in his lifetime, and are still being studied and analysed as

 historically significant in a quest for authenticity. His work was published widely in South Africa and also internationally in both acknowledged academic journals and more popular monthly architectural magazines where his ideas and decisions are revisited and re-evaluated.His inspiration, his example and his architecture live on. <mask>'s innovative design philosophy is most exemplified in the "Dopper" church, summarised in the New York Museum of Modern Art collection of the photographs of David Goldblatt:

Paradoxically however Dopper churches were architecturally the most radical in the great wave of church building engaged in by the Afrikaner Protestant Churches between the 1940s and the late 1980s. Several of the archetypal Dopper churches, including this one, were by <mask> <mask>. Himself a Dopper, he explained his approach to me in 1994: "The Dopper Church took the lead because of the strength of its doctrine. I could approach the design of the church as the community did, trying to incorporate our beliefs in it. It was not a style. The church was a visual symbol of aspects of our faith, while simultaneously retaining the basic idea of the Reformation that all external symbols should be avoided.I couldn't accept a complicated architecture. I wanted simple wall surfaces, big roof surfaces, a plain, striking building with height and unity between interior and exterior... The triangle is essentially religious with a very vertical and spiritual character. Preaching of the Word is not confined to four walls. It must go out through big windows at the top and front of the church which is like a megaphone with the preacher at its apex." Excluding the Dutch Reformed church located in Aranos in southern Namibia, all <mask>'s designs were for buildings in the former Transvaal (province) and in the northern Free State (province). In 1986, significant restoration of the Union Buildings was undertaken by <mask> <mask> and T.W.Baker as the appointed architects

<mask> (née Chalhoub) is an Australian small business owner, former Registered Nurse and former Liberal Party and Independent candidate for the New South Wales state seat of Macquarie Fields. <mask> first rose to public prominence as one of the whistleblowers whose disclosures about entrenched substandard clinical practices and complicit management culture at Camden and Campbelltown Hospitals, that resulted in 21 avoidable deaths and other unnecessary injuries, sparked five major inquiries and the resignation and termination of a number of senior executive managers in the NSW health service. Role in the Macarthur Health Services scandal

Camden and Campbelltown Hospitals are two acute care hospitals (Campbelltown being the larger hospital) that provide extensive clinical services to residents of the Macarthur region (south-west Sydney) of New South Wales in Australia. Rapid population growth in the region, particularly from overseas immigration, during the 1990s and 2000s put increasing strain on Camden and Campbelltown Hospitals. Despite this, Camden and Campbelltown Hospitals continuously failed to attract sufficient numbers of suitably qualified clinical staff, compared to other hospitals of the same size, to meet the increasing clinical demand. Political electoral sensitivities however continued to see Camden and Campbelltown Hospitals be pushed to not reduce or limit services, which created an environment of numerous clinical care safety risks that resulted in unnecessary adverse incidents, including 21 avoidable deaths, and a "sick hospital and administration system" that had "severely shaken... public confidence in New South Wales hospitals". Between 1995 and 2002, a number of clinical staff - including <mask>, who was a Registered Nurse Unit Manager at Camden Hospital and member of the Critical Care

On 5 November 2002 Nurses Valerie Owens, Sheree Martin, Yvonne Quinn and <mask>, accompanied by solicitor John Chalhoub, met with the then NSW Health Minister Craig Knowles as whistleblowers, detailing multiple episodes of substandard clinical practice that had resulted in patient death and injury, and ongoing failures of clinical governance processes at Camden and Campbelltown Hospitals, for which there had been systemic inaction to address by senior management, and for which retaliatory action, including intimidation, against those reporting such incidents had been occurring, including directly from the then General Manager Jennifer Collins. This meeting resulted in the Director-General of the NSW Department of Health commissioning an internal investigation by the Departmental Director of Audit. On 18 November 2002, the Director-General of the NSW Department of Health, after considering the internal investigation report, referred 47 clinical care incidents that

On 11 December 2003 NSW Premier Bob Carr appointed Bret Walker as a Commissioner to conduct a Special Commission of Inquiry into Camden and Campbelltown Hospitals, followed by the separate announcements that the New South Wales Legislative Council would hold an "Inquiry into Complaints Handling within NSW Health" and that the NSW ICAC would open "Operation Jardine" to examine if any corrupt conduct had occurred. On 24 June 2004, the NSW Legislative Council Inquiry released its final report, with Inquiry Chairman Gordon Moyes stating that the medical mistakes and their cover-ups were a result of a system run by an "old girls' network" of administrators protected by their political affiliations and willingness to put the political motivations of their masters ahead of patient safety. The Inquiry committee singled out former General Manager Jennifer Collins for specific criticism, stating "The Committee is critical of former Macarthur Health Services General Manager Jennifer Collins and believes her management approach hindered efforts to bring forward complaints about health care" (paragraph 4.21) and found her evidence to the committee as lacking

Ultimately though, despite five major inquiries, multiple findings of concern and numerous media coverage, no criminal or civil charges were laid, nor was any finding of corrupt conduct made (due to lack of evidence), on anyone involved. Camden and Campbelltown Hospitals did receive more funding however as a result of the scrutiny, with then Health Minister Morris Iemma pledging $5m in extra funding.

After former NSW Health Minister Craig Knowles resigned from the New South Wales Parliament in 2005, <mask> stood as the  candidate in the resulting by-election for his seat of Macquarie Fields, where she achieved a 12.38% swing towards the Liberals, but ultimately was defeated by  candidate Steven Chaytor.<mask> again stood as the Liberal Party candidate at the 2007 election for Macquarie Fields, where she achieved a similar result, with the seat being retained for Labor by Andrew McDonald. <mask> again contested the 2011 election for Macquarie Fields, but this time as an , where she came in third, behind the Labor and Liberal candidates, with 10.5% of the vote, with sitting member Andrew McDonald retaining the seat.

<mask>
(; 10 December 1870 – 23 August 1933) was an Austrian architect and influential European theorist of modern architecture. His essay Ornament and Crime advocated smooth and clear surfaces in contrast to the lavish decorations of the fin de siècle, as well as the more modern aesthetic principles of the Vienna Secession, exemplified in his design of Looshaus, Vienna. <mask> became a pioneer of modern architecture and contributed a body of theory and criticism of Modernism in architecture and design and developed the "Raumplan" (literally spatial plan) method of arranging interior spaces, exemplified in Villa Müller in Prague. <mask> had three tumultuous marriages that all ended in divorce. He suffered from poor health, including an inherited hearing affliction. He was convicted as a pedophile in 1928 for exploiting girls from poor families, aged 8 to 10. He died aged 62 on 23 August 1933 in Kalksburg near Vienna.Early life
<mask> was born on 10 December 1870 in Brno, in the Margraviate of Moravia region of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, today the eastern part of the Czech Republic. His father, a German stonemason, died when <mask> was nine years old. Young <mask> had inherited his father's hearing impairment and was significantly handicapped by it throughout his life. His mother continued to carry on the stonemason business after her husband's death. <mask> attended several Gymnasium schools, a technical school in Liberec and graduated 1889 from a technical school in Brno. He later studied at Dresden University of Technology. He left one year later without completing his study.Career
At age 23, <mask> traveled to the United States and stayed there for three years from 1893 to 1896. While in the United States, he mainly lived with relatives in the Philadelphia area, supported himself with odd jobs and also visited other cities such as the World's Columbian Exposition in

 Chicago, St. Louis and New York. <mask> returned to Vienna in 1896 and made it his permanent residence. He was a prominent figure in the city and a friend of Ludwig Wittgenstein, Arnold Schönberg, Peter Altenberg and Karl Kraus. Inspired by his years in the New World he devoted himself to architecture. After briefly associating himself with the Vienna Secession in 1896, he rejected the style and advocated a new, plain, unadorned architecture. A utilitarian approach to use the entire floor plan completed his concept.<mask>'s early commissions consisted of interior designs for shops and cafés in Vienna. Architectural theory
<mask> authored several polemical works. In Spoken into the Void, published in 1900, he attacked the Vienna Secession, at a time when the movement was at its peak. In his essays, <mask> used provocative catchphrases and is noted for the essay/manifesto entitled Ornament and Crime, given in a lecture in 1910 and first published in 1913. He explored the idea that the progress of culture is associated with the deletion of ornament from everyday objects, and that it was therefore a crime to force craftsmen or builders to waste their time on ornamentation that served to hasten the time when an object would become obsolete (design theory). <mask>'s stripped-down buildings influenced the minimal massing of modern architecture, and stirred controversy. Although noted for the lack of ornamentation on their exteriors, the interiors of many of <mask>'s buildings are finished with rich and expensive materials, notably stone, marble and wood, displaying natural patterns and textures in flat planes, executed in first rate craftsmanship.The distinction is not between complicated and simple, but between "organic" and superfluous decoration. <mask> was also interested in the decorative arts, collecting sterling silver and high quality leather goods, which he noted for

 their plain yet luxurious appeal. He also enjoyed fashion and men's clothing, designing the famed Kníže of Vienna, a haberdashery. His admiration for the fashion and culture of England and America can be seen in his short-lived publication Das Andere, which ran for just two issues in 1903 and included advertisements for 'English' clothing. In 1920, he had a brief collaboration with Frederick John Kiesler, an architect, theater and art-exhibition designer. Loos House and other projects
From 1904 on, he was able to carry out big projects; the most notable was the so-called "Looshaus" (built from 1910 to 1912), originally for the Viennese tailor Goldman and Salatsch, for whom Loos had designed a store interior in 1898, and situated right across from the Habsburg city residence Hofburg Palace. The house, today located at the address Michaelerplatz 3, Vienna, and under monument preservation, was criticized by its contemporaries.The facade was dominated by rectilinear window patterns and a lack of stucco decoration and awnings, which earned it the nickname "House without Eyebrows"; Emperor Franz Joseph I of Austria was said to have despised the modern building so much that he avoided leaving the Hofburg Palace through a main gate in its vicinity. His work also includes the store of the men's fashion house Knize (built 1909–13), Am Graben 13, Café Museum (built 1899), Operngasse 7, Vienna, and the "American Bar" (built 1907–08), Kärntnerstrasse 10, Vienna. <mask> visited the island of Skyros in 1904 and was influenced by the cubic architecture of the Greek islands. When the Austro-Hungarian Empire collapsed after World War I <mask> was awarded Czechoslovakian citizenship by President Masaryk. His main place of residence remained in Vienna. During the First Austrian Republic <mask> became interested in public projects. He designed several housing projects for the City of

 Vienna, which was then nicknamed Red Vienna.From 1924 to 1928 <mask> lived in Paris. He taught at the Sorbonne and was contracted to build a house for Tristan Tzara, which was completed 1925 on Avenue Junot 15, Paris. In 1928 he returned to Vienna. <mask> had an admiration for classical architecture, which is reflected in his writings and his entry to the 1922 Chicago Tribune competition. <mask>'s submission was a massive doric column. Private life

Marriages
<mask> was married three times. In July 1902, he married drama student .The marriage ended three years later in 1905. In 1919, he married 20-year-old Austrian-born Elsie Altmann, a dancer and operetta star and daughter of <mask> and Jeannette Gruenblatt. They divorced seven years later in 1926. In 1929 he married writer and photographer Claire Beck. She was the daughter of his clients Otto and Olga Beck, and 35 years his junior. They were divorced on 30 April 1932. Following their divorce, <mask> wrote Adolf Loos Privat, a literary work of snapshot-like vignettes about <mask>'s character, habits and sayings, published by the Johannes-Presse in Vienna in 1936.The book was intended to raise funds for <mask>'s tomb. Poor health
All his life, <mask> suffered from a hearing impairment. When he was a child, he was deaf. He only acquired partial hearing at the age of 12. In 1918 <mask> was diagnosed with cancer. His stomach, appendix and part of his intestine were removed. By the time he was 50 he was nearly deaf.Child sexual abuse
In 1928 <mask> was disgraced by a pedophilia scandal in Vienna. He had commissioned young girls, aged 8 to 10, from poor families to act as models in his studio. The indictment stated that <mask> had exposed himself and forced his young models to participate in sexual acts. He was found partially guilty in a court decision of 1928. In 2008 the original case record was rediscovered and confirmed

<mask> (March 1533 – 24 March 1558), mainly known as <mask> (or <mask>en), was a Dutch heiress who became the first wife of William the Silent, Prince of Orange. Biography

<mask> was born in Grave, Netherlands in March 1533. She was the only child of <mask> (1509-1548) and Françoise de Lannoy (1513-1562). Therefore, she was suo jure Countess of Buren and Lady of Egmond. She was also Countess of Lingen and of Leerdam, and Lady of IJsselstein, of Borssele, of Grave, of Cranendonck, of Jaarsveld, of Kortgene, of Sint Maartensdijk, and of Odijk. Her mother and father were of high nobility. Maximiliaan's main activities were those of Charles V's army commander, first in an argument with Gelre, later in a campaign in the German areas against the League of Schmalkalden.He also played a role as a director, both as captain general and stadholder of Friesland, Groningen and Overijssel, and in his extensive possessions around Buren and in Zeeland. He was often at the Brussels court of Charles V and especially of Mary of Hungary, his sister and governor of the Netherlands. <mask> and her mother usually stayed at the family castle in Buren. Given his high position, father Maximiliaan was on good terms with Charles V (1500-1558), then emperor of the Holy Roman Empire, king of Spain and landlord of the Habsburg Netherlands and his sister, Mary of Hungary (1505-1558), governor of the Habsburg Netherlands. <mask> grew up in a noble entourage, the center of which was the court of the governor in Brussels. The spoken language was French, the language that <mask> learned in addition to Dutch and in which she would later correspond with William of Orange, better known later as William the silent. Whether and how she was prepared for the administration of the vast estates and wonderful rights belonging to the County of
