<mask> (April 1, 1915 – December 9, 1975) was a Canadian-born American left fielder in Major League Baseball (MLB) who played most of his career for the Cleveland Indians. He was one of the American League's most promising power hitters of the late 1930s and early 1940s, twice led the AL in triples, and batted at least .340 with over 100 runs batted in (RBIs) each time. In 1941 he was selected to his first All-Star Game and that same season became the first player from the American League to become a member of the 20–20–20 club when he hit 20 each of doubles, triples and home runs in the same season. His other All-Star Game selections were in 1943 and 1945. <mask> played for the Washington Senators and St. Louis Browns during the 1946 season and the National League's (NL) Boston Braves beginning in 1948. He incurred a compound fracture to his ankle in late September 1948 in a game in Brooklyn shortly after Boston had clinched the pennant. Subsequently, the Braves were without their starting left fielder for the 1948 World Series.In 1949, <mask>'s last season in the majors, sportswriter Franklin Lewis wrote, "There was the inimitable <mask> who...should have been one of the greatest players in history. But there were no valves on his temper. He grinned in the manner of a schoolboy or he snarled with the viciousness of a tiger." Early life

<mask> was born April 1, 1915, in Fort William, Ontario. His family moved to Victoria, British Columbia before settling in Seattle, Washington. He attended Garfield High School in Seattle where he played baseball and football. As a freshman, he made the varsity baseball squad.<mask> was a multi-sport athlete and was offered scholarships from various schools to play American football. University of Washington head coach Jimmy Phelan said <mask> was the best fullback in the country. <mask> chose a future in baseball, however, and in 1935, he signed with the Yakima Bears of the semipro Northwest League, where he hit .390. He was selected as an

 All-American amateur team member, managed by Les Mann and played games in Japan. For the tour his batting average was .483. <mask> faced difficulties being allowed re-entry upon the team's arrival to the U.S. and became a naturalized U.S. citizen. Cleveland Indians scout Willie Kamm helped sign <mask> to a contract with the organization in 1936.Kamm said, "If this kid isn't a big leaguer I've wasted a lot of time learning baseball." He reported to spring training with the New Orleans Pelicans of the Southern Association. One of his hands became infected and the Indians moved him to their Class C Mid-Atlantic team, the Zanesville Greys. With the Greys, he hit league-bests with 187 RBIs and a .383 average, while his 28 home runs were second-most. He was called up to join the Indians before the 1936 season ended. Cleveland Indians

<mask> batted left-handed and threw right-handed and was listed as  tall and  (14 stone, 4). He broke in with the Indians in 1936 at the age of 21, appeared in 12 games with the club and recorded a .341 batting average and seven extra-base hits.During spring training leading up to the 1937 season, <mask> was describing as getting "as much attention as the backline of a Broadway chorus." He appeared in 20 games and hit .230 for the season. During spring training before the 1938 season, Indians manager Oscar Vitt said <mask> was "the best natural hitter I've seen since Joe Jackson." One columnist described Vitt's decision to employ <mask>:
"Vitt finally decided to use <mask>, the chap with the bulging muscles, in his left pasture. There are few better hitters in the American league than the husky from Washington. <mask> is not the most graceful ballhawk in captivity and he may toss to the wrong base, but put a bat in his hands and the opposition's pitcher will tremble." In his first full season in 1938, he batted .343 – behind only batting champion Jimmie Foxx's .349 – while leading the league with 18 triples.Upon the conclusion of the season, <mask>

He had 21 home runs and 112 RBIs, collected 58 hits in August alone, and was among the league leaders in slugging average and total bases for the 1938 season. In January 1939, he married Theabelle Callard. He finished with a .292 batting average in 1939. The season also included a late-season punch to a fan from <mask> during a home game in Cleveland. "It was just another blunder in a bad season that has been full of mistakes", <mask> said of the incident. Before the 1940 season, <mask> said, "I'm going to show 'em I'm no flash in the pan.Last year I was overswinging and taking my eye of the ball. I'm not going to do that this season." During the season, <mask> was one of 12 reported players who presented a list of grievances against Vitt to Indians President Alva Bradley. Bradley called a meeting with the players and by the end of it, a statement of support from the players for Vitt was released. Twenty-one Indians signed the document, while <mask> was one of four who did not, as he was one of two in the hospital at the time of the meeting. Instances between Vitt and his players, including <mask>, continued past June, however. <mask> was suspended by Vitt after a game in August after the two exchanged words following a strikeout by <mask>, who was put in the game as a pinch-hitter.Indians Vice President C.C. Slapnicka withdrew the suspension. The Indians finished the regular season with an 89–65 record in Vitt's last season as manager and <mask> a career-low .219 average. The Indians lost the AL pennant by one game to the Detroit Tigers and <mask> received much of the blame, although Vitt was released as the team's manager and replaced by Roger Peckinpaugh. Peckinpaugh announced in December 1940 <mask> would remain a starting outfielder with the club. <mask> came back

He also finished second in total bases and RBIs (behind DiMaggio) as well as second in hits, made his first All-Star team, and finished eighth in the Most Valuable Player award voting.He became the first AL player to make the 20-20-20 club, having recorded 20 doubles, triples and home runs in one season. In 1941, <mask> became the first player in American League history to record a 20-20-20 season. <mask> had 32 doubles, 20 triples, and 24 home runs. This feat would not be equaled until George Brett accomplished the feat in 1979. <mask> worked as a draftsman for Seattle-Tacoma Shipbuilding Corporation during the off-season leading up to 1943. In years previous, <mask> had been described as "lazy" and "lacking aggressiveness" but the 1943 season appeared to be different, including investing extra time in batting practice. He was selected for the All-Star Game and finished fourth in the AL in home runs with 18.<mask> was rejected in 1944 for military duty due to knee problems. During the 1944 season <mask> was mainly used as a pinch-hitter. In the off-season he underwent knee surgery and entered a contract dispute with the Indians. He did not join the team until June of the 1945 season after a two-month holdout. Despite missing the beginning part of the season, he was still named an All-Star although the game was not played due to travel restrictions during World War II. He finished the season with a batting average of .305 and his 15 home runs were fifth in the AL. In 1943 he became the second player born outside the U.S. to hit 100 home runs, and he surpassed George Selkirk with his 109th home run in 1945.<mask>, who had acquired the nickname "<mask>", was called a "problem child" by Indian player-manager Lou Boudreau. Peckinpaugh once said that <mask> "could have been one of the greatest players. He

 had the ability to do about anything. He could run, he could throw, and he could hit. But he just had no hustle, no nothing. If a ball went by him, he just might walk after it." In December 1945 the Indians traded <mask> to the Washington Senators where he started in right field.Washington Senators and St. Louis Browns
In 1946, Senators' President Clark Griffith agreed to send outfielder George Case to Cleveland in exchange for <mask>. Of the trade, Griffith said, "We've sacrificed plenty of speed for a man of tremendous hitting power." During spring training, the addition of <mask> led to the Senators being described as a "dark horse." The Associated Press continued:
"<mask>'s performance may be the key to the Senators' fate. The husky Canadian is the kind of slugger Washington was crying for last fall. He can break up a ball game with one mighty swish of his bat but, to put it mildly, there always has been an uncertain quality about him. Big <mask> was dissatisfied in Cleveland, didn't like the ballpark, didn't like the management, didn't like anything.Still, he has been a most valuable hitter, perhaps one of the best in the game when he is settled down to business." But <mask> would appear in just 48 games with the Senators. He finished with the team hitting .283 with four home runs and 27 RBIs, his last game on June 15 before he was traded to the St. Louis Browns in mid-June for Al LaMacchia and Joe Grace. In his first game with the Browns on June 17 he went 1-for-3 with one RBI. The Browns, who were 23–32 at the time <mask> joined the club, finished the 1946 season 66–88. <mask> finished with 12 home runs and 57 RBIs in 86 games with the Browns. Again, the <mask> tendency for resentment and trouble led to the Browns trade.Washington had a utility infielder, Sherry Robertson, who was the nephew of owner Clark Griffith. During games, <mask> would ride Robertson on the bench, calling him "owner's pet", in reference to the possibility that Robertson was only on the team due

 to that relationship, and the possibility that Robertson was better paid than <mask>. This was the subject of a column in the Washington Post after <mask> was gone by longtime sports writer Shirley Povich, who hated to see the <mask> bat leave Washington. The Browns were the second team in the AL to add black players to their roster after the Indians signed Larry Doby in July 1947. Willard Brown and Hank Thompson were teammates of <mask>'s during the 1947 season, but <mask> was described as committing a "petulant display of prejudice" towards Brown after Brown hit a home run with one of <mask>'s old bats. Brown preferred to use a heavy bat and did not bring his own after being told by the Browns the team would supply him with bats. Brown found one of <mask>'s damaged bats and applied tape to the affix the knob to the end of the bat.When he tried to use the bat during a game, the umpire told him he could not use the bat with tape applied, so Brown discarded the loose fragments of the bat and proceeded to hit a home run during the at-bat. When he returned to the dugout, however, <mask> destroyed the bat when he hit it against the dugout wall. <mask> had a career-high 27 home runs during the 1947 season, but the Browns finished in eighth and last place in the AL. In the Browns' final game, <mask> was already in the clubhouse showers when it was his turn to bat in the ninth inning. Upon the conclusion of the season, Browns management was looking to overhaul the team roster. Browns General Manager Bill DeWitt tried to shop <mask> to a National League team rather than leave him in the AL. On December 4 it was announced the Boston Braves of the National League had acquired <mask>.Boston Braves

Unlike the Browns, the Braves were contenders all the way to the end of the 1948 season. In a game against the Philadelphia Phillies on September 3, and with the Braves tied for the NL lead, <mask> hit a two-run home run and the Braves went on to win the game, 3–1, and stayed in first place

 for the remainder of the regular season. With the Braves up five games in the NL standings and four games remaining on their regular season schedule, the Braves had a match-up with the Brooklyn Dodgers on September 29 but according to teammate Clint Conatser, <mask> asked Braves manager Billy Southworth for the night off but his request was denied. During the game, <mask> attempted to score from second base and slid towards home plate to try and beat the tag by Dodgers catcher Roy Campanella. As he slid, his foot got caught in the dirt which caused his ankle to twist. "I began to slide about five feet from the plate. Funny thing, I generally get my spikes up off the ground, but this time I didn't.I looked at my foot, which was twisted all the way around, and honestly I thought it would come right off", <mask> said the next day from a local hospital. After playing in the majors for parts of 12 years, he would be forced to miss the World Series as it was later diagnosed he fractured his ankle. He called the broken ankle "the biggest disappointment of my life." A widely published newspaper photograph of the play showed <mask> sliding toward the plate, mouth open in shock, with his leg bent mid-ankle with the lower ankle rotated ninety degrees to the upper ankle. He was quoted asking himself "Why did I slide?" when he was carried off the field on a stretcher and later put in an ambulance. In 1964, <mask> said:
"I guess I didn't tuck my leg while sliding.Carl Furillo (Dodger rightfielder) made the throw. He had a great arm and I was out a mile. They (sportswriters) said it was an unnecessary slide in a game that didn't mean anything. The hell it was, you always slide. Besides Johnny Sain (Braves pitcher) was after his 23rd win and we wanted to shove Brooklyn into third place." <mask>'s regular season came to an end, as he batted .319 with 20 home runs on the season. The Braves' season came to an end after six games in the World Series as they lost to the Indians, four games to

 two.<mask> played in the minors the following season before eventually rejoining the Braves during the 1949 season. In a game on August 28, <mask> helped tie the Cincinnati Reds with a home run in the ninth inning and helped win the game for the Braves with another in the 10th inning. He ended his final major league season after 36 games into the 1949 season. He batted .306 with nine homers and 23 RBIs. In October 1949, the Braves placed <mask> on waivers and general manager John Quinn offered him a managing position with a team in the Braves farm system, but he never accepted Quinn's offer to manage. Baseball historian Bill James when summarizing the 1940s listed <mask> as the recipient for his designation of "A Better Ballplayer Than a Human Being." Southworth said, "They told me when I got him from the American League that <mask> was a troublemaker.If he is, I'd sure like to have eight other troublemakers like him." Retirement
Before he retired from professional baseball, <mask> appeared in 57 games for the Seattle Rainiers of the Pacific Coast League. He was later fired from the team. In 1951, he was given a trial basis with the Rainiers but was never signed. Sportswriter Franklin Lewis interviewed <mask> and asked if he would do anything differently in his career if he was given the chance. <mask> responded, "I wouldn't gag around as much. I shouldn't have popped off.It's all right for little guys to talk loud, but not a big ox like me." In his 14-season major league career, <mask> posted a .293 batting average and a .509 slugging average, with 194 home runs, 1,447 hits, 887 RBIs, 777 runs, 279 doubles, 102 triples and 56 stolen bases in 1,383 games played. Defensively, he recorded a .972 fielding percentage as an outfielder. Bobby Thomson surpassed him in 1955 to become the major leagues' home run leader among foreign-born players. <mask> was the first player to hit a home run in all AL and NL ballparks. He was named as one of the "Top 100 Greatest Indians." In 1988 he

 was inducted into the Canadian Baseball Hall of Fame.He worked briefly as a scout for the Cleveland Indians. He later worked as a color commentator with the Rainiers and did advertising work in the Seattle area. During one game while <mask> provided commentary, he cursed into the microphone on-air and later apologized. A station manager later approached him regarding the incident and <mask> responded by throwing the manager down a flight of stairs. <mask> died of a heart attack in Seattle at age 60. He had suffered a heart attack in 1957 at the age of 43. He was survived by two daughters and one son.Footnotes
 While the Associated Press story which ran on December 10, 1975, announcing <mask>'s death stated he was 59 years of age at the time of his death, several sources (including Baseball-Reference.com, The Canadian Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum, Society for American Baseball Research, and Biographical Dictionary of American Sports) list his death at the age of 60 and that he was born in 1915. A United Press International story released in 1939 stated <mask> was born in 1916, not 1915. See also

title: Freeman Freeman-Thomas, 1st Marquess of Willingdon

texts:
<mask>  (12 September 1866 – 12 August 1941), was a British Liberal politician and administrator who served as Governor General of Canada, the 13th since Canadian Confederation, and as Viceroy and Governor-General of India, the country's 22nd. <mask> was born in England and educated at Eton College and then the University of Cambridge before serving for 15 years in the Sussex Artillery. He then entered the diplomatic and political fields, acting as aide-de-camp to his father-in-law when the latter was Governor of Victoria and, in 1900, was elected to the British House of Commons. He thereafter occupied a variety of government posts, including secretary to the British prime minister and, after being raised to the peerage as Lord Willingdon, as Lord-in-waiting to King George V. From 1913, Willingdon held gubernatorial and viceregal offices throughout the British Empire, starting with the governorship of Bombay and then the governorship of Madras, before he was in 1926 appointed as the Governor-General of Canada to replace the Viscount Byng of Vimy, occupying the post until succeeded by the Earl of Bessborough in 1931. <mask> was immediately thereafter appointed as Viceroy and Governor-General of India to replace Lord Irwin (later created Earl of Halifax), and he served in the post until succeeded by the <mask> of Linlithgow in 1936. After the end of his viceregal tenure, <mask>. After representing Britain at a number of organisations and celebrations, <mask> died in 1941 at his home in London, and his ashes were interred in Westminster Abbey.Early life and education

 and his wife, Mabel, daughter of Henry Brand, Parliamentary Secretary to the Treasury (later Speaker of the House of Commons, who retired as 1st Viscount Hampden). Before he was two, Thomas' father had died and he was raised thereafter by his mother, who sent him to Eton College. There, he acted as President of the Eton Society and was for three years a member of the school's cricket team, serving as captain of the playing eleven during his final year. He carried this enthusiasm for sport on to the University of Cambridge, where he was accepted to Trinity College after leaving Eton, and was drafted into the Cambridge playing eleven, playing for Sussex and I Zingari. His father had also played for Sussex. Upon his general admission from university, <mask> then volunteered for fifteen years for the Sussex Artillery, achieving the rank of major. Marriage and political career
In 1892, <mask> assumed the additional surname of <mask> by deed poll and married the Hon.Marie Brassey, the daughter of Thomas Brassey, then recently created Baron Brassey. <mask> often cited her as a source of support, stating once: "My wife has been a constant inspiration and encouragement." The couple had two sons: Gerard, born 3 May 1893, and Inigo, born 25 July 1899. Gerard was killed in World War I on 14 September 1914, and Inigo eventually succeeded his father as Marquess of Willingdon. In 1897 <mask> was appointed aide-de-camp to his father-in-law, who was then the Governor of Victoria, Australia. Upon his return to the United Kingdom, <mask> joined the Liberal Party and in 1900 was elected to the British House of Commons to represent the borough of Hastings. He then served as a junior

 lord of the Treasury in the Liberal Cabinet that sat from December 1905 to January 1906.Though he lost in the January 1906 elections, <mask> returned to the House of Commons by winning the by-election for Bodmin, and, for some time, served as a secretary to the prime minister, H. H. Asquith. For his services in government, <mask>-Thomas was in 1910 elevated to the peerage as Baron Willingdon of Ratton in the County of Sussex, and the following year was appointed as Lord-in-waiting to King George V, becoming a favourite tennis partner of the monarch. His father-in-law was created Earl Brassey at the coronation in that year. Governorship of Bombay

Willingdon was on 17 February 1913 appointed as the Crown Governor of Bombay, replacing the Lord Sydenham of Combe, and to mark this event, Willingdon was on 12 March 1913 honoured with induction into the Order of the Indian Empire as a Knight Grand Commander (additional). Within a year, however, the First World War had erupted, and India, as a part of the British Empire, was immediately drawn into the conflict. Lord <mask> strove to serve the Allied cause, taking responsibility for treating the wounded from the Mesopotamian campaign. In the midst of those dark times, Mahatma Gandhi returned to Bombay from South Africa and Willingdon was one of the first persons to welcome him and invite him to Government House for a formal meeting.This was the first meeting <mask> had with Gandhi and he later described the Indian spiritual leader as "honest, but a Bolshevik and for that reason very dangerous." In 1917, the year before <mask>'s resignation of the governorship, a severe famine broke out in the Kheda region of the Bombay

 Presidency, which had far reaching effects on the economy and left farmers in no position to pay their taxes. Still, the government insisted that tax not only be paid but also implemented a 23% increase to the levies to take effect that year. Kheda thus became the setting for Gandhi's first satyagraha in India, and, with support from Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, Narhari Parikh, Mohanlal Pandya, and Ravishankar Vyas, organised a Gujarat sabha. The people under Gandhi's influence then rallied together and sent a petition to Willingdon, asking that he cancel the taxes for that year. However, the Cabinet refused and advised the Governor to begin confiscating property by force, leading Gandhi to thereafter employ non-violent resistance to the government, which eventually succeeded and made Gandhi famous throughout India after Willingdon's departure from the colony. For his actions there, in relation to governance and the war effort, Willingdon was on 3 June 1918 appointed by the King as a Knight Grand Commander of the Order of the Star of India.Governorship of Madras
<mask> returned to the United Kingdom from Bombay only briefly before he was appointed on 10 April 1919 as the governor of Madras. This posting came shortly after the Montagu–Chelmsford Reforms of 1918 were formalised by the Government of India Act, which distributed power in India between the executive and legislative bodies. Thus, in November 1920, Willingdon dropped the writs of election for the first election for the Madras Legislative Council; however, due to their adherence to Gandhi's non-cooperation movement, the Indian National Congress party refused to run any candidates and the Justice Party was

 subsequently swept into power. <mask> appointed A. Subbarayalu Reddiar as his premier and Prince Arthur, Duke of Connaught and Strathearn (a former Governor General of Canada), opened the first meeting of the Legislative Assembly. The following year, the Governor found himself dealing with a series of communal riots that in August 1921 broke out in the Malabar District. Following a number of cases of arson, looting, and assaults, Willingdon declared martial law just before the government of India sent in a large force to quell the riots. At around the same time, over 10,000 workers in the Buckingham and Carnatic Mills of Madras city organised for six months a general strike contemporaneous with the non-cooperation movement, which also sparked riots between pro- and anti-strike workers that were again only put down with police intervention.When he returned once more to the United Kingdom at the end of his tenure as the Governor of Madras, <mask> was made a viscount, becoming on 24 June 1924 the Viscount Willingdon, of Ratton in the County of Sussex. Governor General of Canada

It was announced on 5 August 1926 that George V had, by commission under the royal sign-manual and signet, approved the recommendation of his British prime minister, Stanley Baldwin, to appoint <mask> as his representative in Canada. The sitting Conservative British Cabinet had initially not considered <mask> as a candidate for the governor generalcy, as he was seen to have less of the necessary knowledge of affairs and public appeal that other individuals held. However, the King himself put forward <mask>'s name for inclusion in the list sent to Canada, and it was that name that the then

texts: Canadian prime minister, William Lyon Mackenzie King, chose as his preference for the nomination to the King. George V readily accepted, and <mask> was notified of his appointment while on a diplomatic mission in China. This would be the last Canadian viceregal appointment made by the monarch in his or her capacity as sovereign of the United Kingdom, as it was decided at the Imperial Conference in October 1926 that the Dominions of the British Empire would thereafter be equal with one another, and the monarch would operate for a specific country only under the guidance of that country's ministers. Though this was not formalised until the enactment of the Statute of Westminster on 11 December 1931, the concept was brought into practice at the start of <mask>'s tenure as Governor General of Canada.The Balfour Declaration of 1926, issued during the Imperial Conference, also declared that governors-general would cease to act as representatives of the British government in diplomatic relations between the United Kingdom and individual dominions. Accordingly, in 1928, the United Kingdom appointed its first High Commissioner to Canada thus effectively ending the governor general's, and Willingdon's, diplomatic role as the British government's envoy to Ottawa. <mask> arrived at Quebec City in late 1926, and on 2 October was sworn in as governor general in a ceremony in the salon rouge of the parliament buildings of Quebec. His following journey to Ottawa to take up residence in the country's official royal and viceroyal home, Rideau Hall, was just the first of many trips Willingdon took around Canada, meeting with a variety of Canadians and bringing with him what was

He also became the first governor general to travel by air, flying from Ottawa to Montreal and back, as well as the first to make official visits abroad; not only did he tour the Caribbean in 1929, but he further paid a visit to the United States, going there in 1927 to meet with and receive state honours from President Calvin Coolidge. On that visit, the Governor General was welcomed in Washington by the King's emissary to the US, Vincent Massey, who would later himself be appointed as Governor General of Canada. In Canada, Willingdon hosted members of the Royal Family, including the King's two sons, Prince Edward, Prince of Wales, and Prince George, who, along with Baldwin, came to Canada to participate in the celebrations of the Diamond Jubilee of Confederation.The Princes resided at Rideau Hall and the Prince of Wales, accompanied by <mask>, dedicated at the Peace Tower both the altar of the Memorial Chamber and the Dominion Carillon, the first playing of which on that day was heard by listeners across the country on the first ever coast-to-coast radio broadcast in Canada. This dedication marked the completion of the Centre Block of Parliament Hill, and the following year, Willingdon moved the annual governor general's New Year's levée to that building from the East Block, where the party had been held since 1870. A few months before the end of his viceregal tenure in Canada, <mask> was once more elevated in the peerage, becoming on 23 February 1931 the Earl of Willingdon and Viscount Ratendone. In their time the viceroyal couple, the Earl and Countess of Willingdon fostered their

 appreciation of the arts, building on previous governor general the Earl Grey's Lord Grey Competition for Music and Drama by introducing the Willingdon Arts Competition, which dispensed awards for painting and sculpture. They also left at Rideau Hall a collection of carpets and objets d'art that they had collected during their travels around India and China, and many of which were restored in 1993 to the Long Gallery of Rideau Hall. However, Willingdon's tastes also included sports, particularly fishing, tennis, skating, skiing, curling, cricket, and golf. For the latter, he in 1927 donated to the Royal Canadian Golf Association the Willingdon Cup for Canadian interprovincial amateur golf competition, which has been contested annually since that year.During his residence in Ottawa, <mask> was a regular attendee at home matches of the Ottawa Senators, continuing a tradition of patronage by sitting Governors-General of the local professional club. In 1930, he donated a trophy to be awarded to the Senators player "of the greatest assistance to his team", which the organization cheekily interpreted as an award for the player to lead the team in assists and dubbed the Willington Trophy. Viceroy and Governor-General of India

He had not been Governor General of Canada for five years before Willingdon received word that he was to be sent back to India as that country's viceroy and governor general. After being appointed to the British Privy Council on 20 March 1931, he was sworn in as such on 18 April 1931, merely two weeks after he was replaced in Canada by the Earl of Bessborough. When Willingdon arrived again in India, the country was gripped by the Great Depression

 and was soon leading Britain's departure from the gold standard, seeing thousands of tonnes of gold shipped to the United Kingdom through the port of Bombay. Of this, Willingdon said: "For the first time in history, owing to the economic situation, Indians are disgorging gold. We have sent to London in the past two or three months, £25,000,000 sterling and I hope that the process will continue."Jailing leaders of Congress
Simultaneously, <mask> found himself dealing with the consequences of the nationalistic movements that Gandhi had earlier started when <mask> was Governor of Bombay and then Madras. The India Office told Willingdon that he should conciliate only those elements of Indian opinion that were willing to work with the Raj. That did not include Nehru and the Indian National Congress, which launched its Civil Disobedience Movement on 4 January 1932. Therefore, <mask> took decisive action. He imprisoned Gandhi. He outlawed the Congress, he rounded up all members of the Working Committee and the Provincial Committees and imprisoned them, and banned Congress youth organizations. In total he imprisoned 80,000 Indian activists.Without most of their leaders, protests were uneven and disorganized, boycotts were ineffective, illegal youth organizations proliferated but were ineffective, more women became involved, and there was terrorism, especially in the North-West Frontier Province. Gandhi remained in prison until 1933. Willingdon relied on his military secretary, Hastings Ismay, for his personal safety. Construction projects

Further, <mask> established the Willingdon Airfield (now known as Safdarjung Airport) in Delhi and, after he was denied entry to the Royal Bombay Yacht Club because he was accompanied by Indian friends, despite his being the viceroy, Willingdon was motivated to establish the Willingdon Sports Club in Bombay, with membership open to both Indians and British and which still operates today. As he had been in Canada, <mask> acted for India as Chief Scout of the Bharat Scouts and Guides and took this role as more than an ex-officio title. Convinced that Scouting would contribute greatly to the welfare of India, he promoted the organisation, especially in rural villages, and requested that J. S. Wilson pay special attention to cooperation between Scouting and village development.Post-viceregal life
Once back in the United Kingdom, Willingdon associated with Roland Gwynne. Along with Rudyard Kipling, Willingdon was one of the notable guests of parties at Gwynne's East Sussex estate, Folkington Manor. He was also honoured by George V, not only by being appointed as the Lord Warden of the Cinque Ports—one of the higher honours bestowed by the sovereign and normally reserved for members of the Royal Family and former prime ministers—but he was also elevated once more in the peerage, being created Marquess of Willingdon by Edward VIII on 26 May 1936, making him the most recent person to be promoted to such a rank. <mask> died at 5 Lygon Place, near Ebury Street, in London, and his ashes were

His sister Eleni Tsivilika is an archaeologist of National Archaeological Museum of Athens, with excavations in Crete and Cyclades. His father was a shopkeeper, provided for his family a comfortable life and loved theater. He studied in the American College of Thessaloniki "Anatolia". His professors there urged him to engage with acting, initially by participating in school's theatrical team.After completing his undergraduate courses he was accepted in the School of English Language and Literature, which dropped out to move in Athens and to eventually move forward professionally with acting. After a failed attempt to be accepted in Theatro Technis, he eventually studied acting in the acting school of Pelos Katselis. His first theatrical performance was in 1965 at Nea Ionia. Two years later Karolos Koun invited him to Theatro Technis. In early 1970s he got involved with satire plays and in

She was a student of Jane Wolfe, herself a student of Aleister Crowley. She was a member of O.T.O. Agape Lodge, the only working Lodge of the O.T.O. at the time of Aleister Crowley's death. Seckler was also instrumental in preserving important parts of Crowley's literary heritage, typing parts of his Confessions, and the complete texts of The Vision and the Voice and Magick Without Tears during the 1950s.Seckler was also instrumental in re-activing the O.T.O. with Grady Louis McMurtry, during the early-mid 1970s, following the death of Crowley's appointed successor, Karl Germer. Seckler continued her lifelong work with the A∴A∴, founding the College of Thelema and co-founding (with James A. Eshelman) the Temple of Thelema, and later warranting the formation of the Temple of the Silver Star. For 25 years she published the bi-annual Thelemic journal In the Continuum.

Luyendyk attended San Diego State University (SDSU) where he obtained a bachelor's degree in geology and geophysics. He then attended the Scripps Institution of Oceanography (SIO)  at the University of California, San Diego, where he earned his PhD in 1969.He studied under Fred Spiess and Henry Menard. That research employed the newly designed deep towed instrument package of the Marine Physical Lab.

This research earned the team the Newcomb Cleveland Prize from the American Association for the Advancement of Science (see 1980, Spiess, Macdonald and 20 coauthors). Marine hydrocarbon seeps —  During the 1990s, <mask> and colleagues began a study of the marine hydrocarbon seep field at Coal Oil Point, California. The object was to quantify oil and natural gas emission from these submarine features. Their work determined that these are likely the largest known marine seeps. They discovered a decrease in seepage over the prior two decades. They attributed this to ongoing oil and gas production from wells that penetrated the source reservoirs of the seep field.Antarctic research —  In the late 1980s, <mask> and David Kimbrough of SDSU launched two expeditions to the Ford Ranges of Marie Byrd Land in West Antarctica. One rationale was to search out matching geologic features related to ones known in New Zealand, which once was joined in Gondwana to this part of Antarctica. Stephen M.

The marine surveys of the Coulman High, carried out jointly with L. Bartek and D. S. Wilson, represented the opportunity for access to a sector of the Ross Sea that had been long-concealed beneath the Ross Ice Shelf. The expeditions followed closely upon the calving and breakout of the  C-19 iceberg in 2002. Based on these surveys the ANDRILL program recommended a deep drill site within the surveyed area of Coulman High. In the later part of the 1990s, <mask> teamed with Andrea Donnellan of the Jet Propulsion Laboratory to use GPS to measure the rate of opening across the Ross Embayment between West and East Antarctica. They found no stretching within the margins for error but did detect vertical motion due to post glacial isostatic rebound. In the early 2000s, Luyendyk, along with D.S.Wilson and C. Siddoway, made aerogeophysical and linked ground surveys in the

 greater region of the Ford Ranges. These surveys revealed buried features that gave clues to the tectonic history of the region. Data from the survey were incorporated into the new bedrock map of Antarctica known as Bedmap2. Achieved through joint work with Douglas S. Wilson, revelations about the topography of the subglacial and nearshore marine environments of the eastern Ross Sea led to an interpretation of paleotopography at a time of climate transition that preceded continental glaciation of Antarctica. The work provided a basis for a climate model for the development of the early Antarctic Ice Sheet. Zealandia —  In 1995, <mask> proposed a model for the fragmentation of Gondwana that included the New Zealand microcontinent and several other pieces of continental crust. He collectively named the now submerged continent that includes the nation of New Zealand, Zealandia.Since that time, New Zealand geologists have made the case that their nation sits atop the world’s eighth continent. Awards and honors
Luyendyk shared the Newcomb Cleveland Prize of the American Association for the Advancement of Science in 1980. Luyendyk was elected Fellow of the Geological Society of America in 1975. In 2002 he was elected a Fellow of the American Geophysical Union. In 2016, the U.S. Board of Geographic Names recognized Luyendyk’s contributions to Antarctic science with a name designation, Mount Luyendyk, to a summit in Marie Byrd

<mask> (1522 in Tarancón – October 13, 1560 in Burgos), also known as <mask>, <mask> and in the Latinized form Aloysia Sygaea Toletana, was a poet and intellectual, one of the major figures of Spanish humanism, who spent a good part of her life in the Portuguese court in the service of Maria of Portugal (1521–1577), as her Latin teacher. <mask> wrote the following epitaph for her: Hic sita SIGAEA est: satis hoc: qui cetera nescit | Rusticus est: artes nec colit ille bonas (loosely translated: 'Here lies Sigea; no more need be said; anyone who does not know the rest is an uneducated fool'). Early years
<mask> was born in 1522 in Tarancón, the fourth child of the Spanish noblewoman, <mask>, and Diogo Sigeo, a Frenchman. She had a sister, Ângela, and two brothers, Diogo and António. Her father had moved to Spain as a boy and was educated at University of Alcalá, where he learnt Latin, Ancient Greek and Hebrew. In 1522, he was connected to the failed revolution in Castile led by <mask> and known as the 'Revolt of the Comuneros'. Diogo fled to Portugal where he became tutor to the children of the Duke of Bragança, bringing his family to join him in around 1536.Luisa was then educated by her father, along with the rest of her siblings. As women were excluded from all European Universities at the time, this meant the Sigea girls received an education rarely afforded to other contemporary women, and almost never outside a monastic context. The family was

 relatively poor and of dubious reputation after Diogo's flight from Spain. As such, neither of the Sigea girls would be able to make a particularly advantageous marriage. Their unique education was therefore a means for them to make their way in the world and is directly linked to their ultimate social standing. The Court of Maria of Portugal (1521–1577)
The Infanta Maria's father died when she was six months old and her mother remarried and left for France three years later, being forced to leave the infant Maria behind. This, coupled with her enormous fortune, was one of the reasons why Maria was able never to marry and establish a court for herself.She surrounded herself with humanist writers and artists, of whom Luisa was one. Luisa taught the princess Latin and was paid 16,000 reis a year. Luisa wrote her most famous works during this time. Despite this, Sigea wrote in Latin to her brother-in-law, <mask> Cuevas, saying that after thirteen years' hard work, she had not even been given her promised salary. Yet the Infanta's regard for Luisa can be seen in the fact that her will bestows an annuity of 12,000 reis to Luisa's daughter, Juana. Later life
In 1552, Sigea married <mask> Cuevas, a nobleman from Burgos, Spain. Shortly after this, Luisa left court to live in Burgos and the couple had one daughter, Juana <mask> Sigea.In 1558, Luisa and her husband found work at the court of Mary of Hungary, the daughter of Philip I of Spain. Francisco worked as a

 court.Duarum Virginum Colloquium de vita aulica et privata is a dialogue between two women on whether it is better to live at court or in a private home, a well-trodden humanism theme. In this work, Luisa thanks Maria for giving her the time and space to work, acknowledging the unique position she finds herself in as a member of the Infanta's court. Although the immediate reception was positive, the work then fell into comparative obscurity until the early twentieth century. Letters
Luisa's letters paint a rich picture of her intellectual life and clearly display her proficiency as a humanist writer. They are written to a large number of key figures of contemporary European politics and contain an abundance of Classics references. They also serve as a useful source on what classical texts were available in Portugal, at the time. Satyra Sotadica – the hoax
In 1680 an erotic work was published, entitled Aloysiæ Sigeæ Toletanæ satyra sotadica de arcanis amoris et veneris: Aloysia hispanice scripsit: latinitate donavit J. Meursius.The title translates as "<mask> <mask> Toledana's Sotadic satire, on the secrets of love and sex; Luisa wrote it in Spanish; it has here been translated into Latin by J. Meursius." Johannes Meursius (1579–1639) was a Dutch classical scholar and antiquary. "Sotadic" refers to Sotades, the 3rd-century BC Greek poet who was the chief representative of a group of writers of obscene, and sometimes pederastic, satirical poetry. This is

 widely considered the first-ever fully pornographic work written in Latin, and it contains among other things a defence of tribadism (i.e. lesbianism). The attribution to Sigea (as well as the attribution to Meursius) was a hoax, as was first demonstrated by Bruno Lavignini in his edition of the poem (Italy, 1905).It is believed that the true author was the Frenchman Nicolas Chorier. The work was translated into many other languages, including English, under the title Dialogues of Luisa Sigea. References

Among his most-espoused views is that the historiography of India has been distorted with "Colonial, Nehruvian, and Marxist" biases — thus, requiring a rewriting of history by "revisiting" primary sources. In his book The Ocean of Churn, he accuses historians of "double standards" in their treatment of Ashoka and asks readers to "read local edicts": <mask> argues that the primary sources used in painting a humane image of Ashoka can also be used to portray him as a genocidal tyrant. According to <mask>, Ashoka did not convert to Buddhism out of laments at the Kalinga War but due to political pressure exerted by the Jains. A host of other sources are invoked to claim Ashoka as a "modern day fundamentalist", whose Dhaṃma Mahāmātās were "religious police"; the famed edicts about religious tolerance were all propaganda. He argues that it was the Nehruvian project which had established Ashoka as a "great king", a post-socialist reading of history is said to be the need of the hour.In <mask>'s version of this reading, the central character is Chanakya, a "professor of Political Economy at Taxila university" who helped Chandragupta Maurya to establish a pan-Indian empire and went on to write Arthashastra about a centralised Mauryan economy. Only when the Arthshastra is retrofitted to India's current political economy —by fixing the judicial system, investing in internal security, and simplifying taxation

 rules— among other things, we can return back to the "golden age" of India: a Hindu India, that had birthed “yoga, algebra, the concept of zero, chess, plastic surgery, metallurgy, Hinduism, [and] Buddhism.”

<mask> hypothesizes if the Rshis had "deliberately set up [...] Hinduism’s flexible, adaptive architecture." He goes on to invoke Mahabharata and Puranic literature, to dismiss claims about Indian civilization being a modern construct. Maha-bharata—translated to "Greater India"—allegedly sketched the worlds of Iron Age India; <mask> wonders if "Sudas’ victory against the ten tribes [..] create[d] a dream of civilizational nationhood." The nationhood which has now spent "twelve hundred years" in "servitude" to "outsiders" yet flows unabated since the Vedic era (dated to Bronze age). The nationhood, which has been repeatedly bought with blood from Talikota to Saraighat. He believes the Partition of India to have had happened due to a "fundamental divergence" in opinions about this nationhood.Reception
Meera Visvanathan, a historian of ancient India, mounts a sharp critique of <mask>'s works and notes him to be ignorant of methodologies in historical research. Despite grand calls to rewrite history, his own citations seldom deal with primary sources and remain restricted to textbooks, popular histories, and newspaper articles by mainstream authors. The success of his works primarily laid in his superior writing skills which presented a flamboyant history, before an audience that had hitherto considered the subject as one of rote learning, with a logical simplicity that was very appealing to majoritarian prejudices.

texts: The usual disdain of academic historians in critiquing and contesting popular histories only added to <mask>'s fame. In deconstructing the narrative of Ashoka, <mask> failed to apply source-criticism—subjecting contemporary edicts, Buddhist hagiographies, and Sri Lankan legends to the same treatment—and imposes a host of anachronistic categories. When dealing with the Arthashastra, <mask> remained oblivious of Trautmann's scholarship, which had conclusively proved the work to be drafted by multiple scholars, or that of Fussman/Sugandhi, who had emphasized the fuzziness of Mauryan economy. He went on to misrecognize a shastra of political economy, as it developed in Early Historic India, as a manual of Mauryan statecraft.<mask>'s analysis of Mahabharata was an exercise in speculation where he struck off whatever did not agree with his preconceived notions but without offering any reason; notwithstanding that Mahabharata translates to "Great War [of the Bharat clan]", he failed to understand the perils of treating Sanskrit itihasa as literal history. Manu Pillai, a popular historian, commends The Ocean of Churn for being a "delightful introduction to the world of the Indian Ocean" despite the possibility of professional scholars challenging his narrative and conclusions. He welcomed <mask>'s command over a layered and complex past, his "accessible" yet "captivating narrative", and especially the reevaluation of Ashoka. Shiv Visvanathan, a social anthropologist specializing in science and technology studies, praised the same work for being a feisty, combative, and comprehensive history of Indian Ocean aimed at a general

<mask> (born 1955) is an Australian artist who works in sculpture, photography and painting. She is best known for her hyper real images of adolescents. She has exhibited widely in Australia as well as Paris and Brazil. Her works are in the collections of Australian galleries including the National Gallery of Australia, National Gallery of Victoria, Art Gallery of New South Wales, Museum of Contemporary Art, Sydney and the Gallery of Modern Art Brisbane,  as well as major regional galleries. She represented Australia in the XXV biennale in São Paulo, Brazil. Early life and education
<mask> was born in Melbourne in 1955 and attended the Victorian College of the Arts, graduating in 1983. In 2018 she completed a PhD at Deakin University, Faculty of Arts & Education, School of Communication and Creative Arts, Melbourne.Her thesis, titled Lasagna composting: strategies for painting in a digital age proposed strategies for the survival of painting in a digital age. Career
As a painter, <mask> originally explored landscape and in the 1980s focused on politics of occupations and space. <mask> produced drawings in crayon. After the mid-1980s, <mask> focused on ideas about woman's place in society, and the invisibility of women in society. Her works incorporated traditional crafts including plaster work and basket weaving. In 1989–91 <mask> produced a series of works called The Long Century. In her work International Behaviour (2000)  she imposed a photograph of Vietnam refuges in boats on a background of vivid, psychedelic colours and patterns.In 1994, <mask> exhibited sculptures recalling the grand canyon and the Amazon jungle: simple shapes on plinths. Even then critics noted her theatricality and comment on the traditional

 presenting of works on plinths. <mask>'s more recent works are hyper realistic, and recall the gloss of advertising and magazine. Her works portray people between their worlds and their desires, often adolescents. <mask>'s best known series is Walking in Tall Grass, portraits of adolescents, that <mask> worked on for fifteen years, ending in 2016. <mask> began with photographing people she knew as well as strangers. She drew on the photographs for the paintings, which may combine a head, a torso and features from multiple subjects she has photographed.When she paints the portraits, <mask> adds vibrant colours and often paints reflections in eyes or sunglasses. To heighten vibrancy, <mask> has painted exhibition walls in vibrant colours. Each young adolescent is dressed and accessorized to express individuality as well as fashion at the time the painting was done. Yet each individual looks away from the viewer, suggesting they are looking inward uncertain of where they are going. In an interview, <mask> noted that when walking in tall grass you can't go back, you have to go forward, but you can't see where you are going. Work
<mask>'s works exploit emotional, textural and chromatic intensity, oscillating between fear and power, complacency and dissent. Layered within the artist's work is the personal experience of her own formative years during the social, political and cultural tumult of the 1970s.<mask>'s multi-disciplinary practice, which encompasses painting, sculpture, photography and installation, concentrates on the role of the visual in the construction and experience of the developing self. Both alluring and disquieting, her work's dynamism stems from the artist's preoccupation with states of change. <mask>'s

For instance, in the 1990s her paintings (Anticipating Transcendence,1996 and An Ordinary Life, 1997) explored iconic tropes of modernism by refiguring the work of Yves Klein and Piero Manzoni. The series culminating in the exhibition Incident 1960, which examined issues of simulation and the relationship between painting, photography and 3D objects. In the early 2000s <mask> began her hyperrealist, hyper coloured painting series, Walking in Tall Grass. As MCA senior curator Rachel Kent writes: '<mask>'s paintings are unapologetically representational, their subjects painted meticulously from photographs taken by the artist, rather than from studio sittings.Collectively titled Walking in Tall Grass, her works take as their subject a young person – male or female – on the cusp of adolescence. Highly individual, with distinctive features, clothing and other pieces of visual information (a pom-pom hat, badges, a particular anorak), they are one step removed from their viewer in that they are discretely turned away and do not meet the eye directly. This 'disconnect' or refusal to engage has been described by some critics as reflecting the nature of adolescence, with its solitary introspection and avoidance of adult engagement. Each portrait is singular, the figure presented against a simple, coloured background.' 'Increasingly, they are a composite of several people who are digitally combined, the head of one, the torso or arms of another, and so forth…. This subsequent step then becomes an exercise in going beyond the truth of the photograph, introducing a

The three works that made up the exhibition (each 1:1 cast replicas of objects from real life) specifically came from the artist's own experience. For instance, Defiance, a rendered water barrier, meticulously detailed in shape and surface but devoid of any colour other than that of the cast, was lifted from the Occupy Melbourne protest in Melbourne's City Square, when on the 21st October the camp was barricaded by police using water barriers and cyclone fencing. Within the circle of linked barriers, one lone barrier sat abandoned inside the camp. The solitary unit, useless without its connection to its fellow barriers, becoming a potent symbol of how power is only achieved when individuals join together. This image was further galvanized as a symbol of defiance when a single graffitied tag appeared.This irreverent gesture later reconstructed by the street artist Sirum 1's Venom tag which was applied to <mask>'s Defiance as a reiteration of the act of reclamation.

<mask> (born October 29, 1941) is an American diplomat and scholar who served as Assistant Secretary of State for African Affairs from June 9, 1981, to April 21, 1989, in the Reagan administration. Crocker, architect of the U.S. policy of "constructive engagement" towards Southern Africa including apartheid-era South Africa, is credited with setting the terms of Namibian independence. Background
<mask> was born in New York City in 1941. He attended Ohio State University and graduated with distinction in History in 1963. He obtained a master's degree at Johns Hopkins University in 1965, followed by a Ph.D at the School of Advanced International Studies. From 1969-1970, <mask> was a lecturer in African government and politics at the American University in Washington DC. He was recruited to join the National Security Council by Henry Kissinger  in 1970, but returned to academia in 1972 as director of the Master of Science in Foreign Service program at Georgetown University, where he lectured in African politics and international relations.Over the course of the next nine years, Crocker advanced to assistant professor, and finally became associate professor at Georgetown University. Constructive engagement
As chairman of Ronald Reagan's 1980 presidential election campaign's "Africa working group", Crocker sought to change US policy on apartheid South Africa away from what he saw as the confrontational approach adopted by the Carter presidency and towards a new policy which he termed "constructive engagement." Shortly after the election, Crocker attracted the attention of the Reagan transition team with an article he wrote in the winter 1980/81 edition of the Foreign Affairs journal. In the article, Crocker was highly critical of the outgoing Carter administration for its apparent hostility to the white minority government in South Africa, by acquiescing in the United Nations Security Council's imposition of a mandatory arms embargo (UNSCR 418/77) and the UN's demand for the end of South Africa's illegal

 occupation of Namibia (UNSCR 435/78). Crocker's policy linked the removal of South African forces from Namibia with the removal of Cuban forces from Angola, which many U.S. diplomats considered to be of vital importance. Without Cuban withdrawal, it was deemed unlikely by diplomats that South Africa would see an incentive to begin the removal of its own troops from Namibia. It was hoped that Cuba would view the withdrawal of its troops as a successful conclusion to their efforts in Africa as it would confirm Cuba's role as a significant player on the diplomatic stage.On February 7, 1981, Crocker formally proposed that the United States should link Namibian independence to the withdrawal of Cuban troops from Angola, where they had formed a 700 km defensive line to prevent South African assaults similar to the 'Zulu' invasion of 1975. In April 1981, Assistant Secretary of State <mask> was dispatched to Africa on a two-week, eleven-nation tour to lay the groundwork for the new policy. However, Crocker was met with distrust on one side – the black leaders wary of the Reagan administration's friendly approach towards the white-minority government in South Africa – and hostility from the other, with prime minister P. W. Botha refusing to meet with him. Undeterred, Crocker continued to insist that a comprehensive solution was the only way to allay the fears on both sides. In his testimony before the House Foreign Affairs Subcommittee on February 15, 1983 he argued:

Security, of which the Cuban troop issue is an integral part, has always been a prerequisite for agreement on Namibian independence. As a practical diplomatic matter, it will not be possible to obtain a Namibian independence agreement without satisfactory regional security assurances. Resolution 435 already required South Africa to leave Namibia so the incorporation of Cuba and Angola was deemed unnecessary in the eyes of some.The policy's requirement to cooperate with the South African government was viewed unfavorably by politicians and human rights

 regionally. A study of the easing of the arms embargo reveals that more than $28.3 million worth of military equipment was authorised for sale to South Africa for fiscal years 1981-1984, as compared to $25,000 for 1979. While the FNLA and UNITA were funded by South Africa and the U.S., the Soviet Union had provided billions of dollars in military support for the MPLA, which was identified as a socialist group. By the end of the 1970s, Angola had become the focus of the USSR's African policy.Namibian independence

<mask> intensified his mediation efforts in successive years. In May 1988 he headed a U.S. mediation team which brought negotiators from Angola, Cuba and South Africa, and observers from the Soviet Union together in London. Intense diplomatic maneuvering characterized the next seven months so as to implement United Nations Security Council Resolution 435 and secure Namibian independence. At the Reagan/Gorbachev summit in Moscow (May 29-June 1, 1988) it was decided that Cuban troops would be withdrawn from Angola, and Soviet military aid would cease, as soon as South Africa withdrew from Namibia. The Tripartite Accord, which gave effect to these decisions, were signed at UN headquarters in New York on December 22, 1988. Crocker attended the signing ceremony along with George Shultz. UNSR Martti Ahtisaari took over from Crocker in April 1989 and began the implementation of UNSCR 435.In May 1989 <mask> stepped down as Assistant Secretary of State and returned to academia at Georgetown University's School of Foreign Service. Elections were held from the 7–11 November 1989 and Namibia finally achieved independence from South Africa on 21 March 1990. Chas. W. Freeman Jr commented at the time that "the emergence of Namibia as a stable, decent society with a well-managed economy would inspire more rapid change away from apartheid in South Africa." He later commented in a 1995 interview with Charles Stuart Kennedy for the Association for Diplomatic Studies and Training that "there is no doubt that the South
