texts:
Amenhotep, son of <mask> (transcribed jmn-ḥtp zꜣ ḥꜣp.w;  early-mid 14th century BC) was an ancient Egyptian architect, a priest, a scribe, and a public official, who held a number of offices under Amenhotep III of the 18th Dynasty. Life
He is said to have been born at the end of Thutmose III's reign, in the town of Athribis (modern Banha in the north of Cairo). His father was <mask>, and his mother Itu. Though little about Amenhotep's early life is known prior to his entering civil service, it is believed that he learned to read and write at the local library and scriptorium. He was a priest and a Scribe of Recruits (organizing the labour and supplying the manpower for the Pharaoh's projects, both civilian and military). He was also an architect and supervised several building projects, among them Amenhotep III's mortuary temple at western Thebes, of which only two statues remain nowadays, known as the Colossi of Memnon, and the creation of the quarry of El-Gabal el-Ahmar, nearby Heliopolis, from which the blocks used to create the Colossi were probably taken. Other plans, such as the portico of the Temple of Karnak, completed under Ramesses II, and those for the Luxor Temple are also attributed to Amenhotep.He may also have been the architect of the Temple of Soleb in Nubia. Amenhotep is noted to have participated in Amenhotep III's first Sed festival, in the 30th year of the king's rule. After this, he is believed to have retired from civil service and become the steward of Princess Sitamun's

In 1930, he took charge of the literature section of the Maeil Sinbo, and he joined the Gyeongseong Central Broadcasting Company (경성중앙방송국) in 1934. In 1946, after Korea's liberation from the Japanese rule, he was the executive editor for a publishing house named Suseonsa, and he gave lectures on literature in various schools. In 1947, he published his own poetry collection Meondong teul je (먼동 틀 제 At Daybreak) and a book of translated poetry Geumjandi (금잔디 Golden Grass). When the Korean War erupted in 1950, he was unable to flee south and remained at his home in Gye-dong, Seoul, and was abducted to North Korea.In addition, toward the end of Korea's colonization under Japan, <mask> showed pro-Japanese tendencies. In 1937, he wrote the lyrics for labor songs reflecting pro-Japanese sentiments, such as "Jonggun ganhobuui norae" (종군간호부의 노래 The Song of a War Nurse). He was also actively involved in other pro-Japanese

 activities, participating as a promoter of  (조선문인협회), a pro-Japanese organization, in 1939 and becoming a member of the cultural department of the  (국민총력조선연맹). He was included in the list of 42 pro-Japanese writers issued in 2002, the list of people to be included in the "literary chapter" of the  (친일인명사전) announced by the  (민족문제연구소) in 2008, as well as on the list of 705 people who committed crimes against their own people announced by the Presidential Committee for the Inspection of Collaborations for Japanese Imperialism. In addition, his activities during Korea's colonial period were classified as crimes against the Korean people by collaborating with the Japanese and are included in detail in the  (친일반민족행위진상규명 보고서). Writing
Until the early 1920s, <mask> mainly introduced foreign literary theories to Korea and pursued Western-style free verse, freely singing of his emotions. In the mid-1920s, however, he turned his attention to traditional poetry and forms, translating

texts:
 Chinese poetry, discovering folk songs, and composing Eastern-style fixed verse.Earlier works
<mask>'s major work in the earlier years of his career is "Bomeun ganda" (1918). It maintains the four-meter form and the fixed pattern of traditional poetry but shows aspects of modern free verse in that it emphasizes the symbolism and significance of poetic language and gives shape to an individual's subjective emotions. Haepariui norae (1923) is his poetry collection representative of his earlier works that contain the characteristics of his poetry before his interest in folk-poetry. Most of the poems in this collection are not written in the classical Chinese style and rather have individualistic rhythm and free verse. In addition, he used classic poetic language (aeoche 雅語體) to sing about an individual's emotions and was praised for opening the horizons for free verse in Korea. Later works
<mask> stopped introducing the Western literary trends and poetics and translating

texts:
 Western poetry into Korean. Instead, he translated over 800 Chinese poems and began to think about applying them appropriately to the Korean language.That led to the creation of gyeokjosi (elegant poetry), which was "modern Korean-style poetry", influenced by Chinese poetry, and the folk-poetry movement. In 1925, his literary orientation shifted from foreign to traditional style, which became apparent in his poetry collection Anseo sijip (안서시집 Poetry Collection by Anseo) (1929). In Anseo sijip, <mask> uses the 7-5-character rhythm and sings about the nature of Korea to restore the traditionalism of poetry. In particular, "Oda gada" (오다 가다 Come and Go) in Anseo sijip makes a perfect use of a fixed rhythm and emphasizes the poetic words such as "mountain path" and "apricot blossom", showing an Eastern worldview with a will to return to nature. Translations
<mask> not only published the first book of poetry translated into Korean, Onoeui mudo (1921) but also introduced

 foreign literary theories to Korea through "Peurangseu sidan" (프랑스 시단 French Poetry Scene) (1918) and "Seupinkeuseuui gonoe" (스핑크스의 고뇌 The Agony of the Sphinx) (1920) and even expressed his stance on translation methodology through "Yeoksiron" (역시론 Theory on Translating Poetry) (1930) and other writings, arguing that translation is another type of creative writing. He also propagated the use of Esperanto and even introduced the Indian poet Tagore to Korea through poetry translations, such as Gitanjari (기탄자리 Gitanjali) (1923), Sinwol (신월 The Crescent Moon) (1924), and Wonjeong (원정 The Gardener) (1924). After 1925, he focused on translating Chinese poetry and published translations, including Mangucho (忘憂草 Day Lily) (1934), Dongsimcho (同心草 Love Letter) (1943), Kkotdabal (꽃다발 Flower Bouquet) (1944), and Jinamyeongsiseon (지나명시선 Selection of Poems from Ming China) (1944).Works

<mask> ( – 29 January 1840) was a pioneer merchant and a magistrate in Australia. He became a prominent trader in Sydney, buying and selling ship cargoes. Despite being an emancipist <mask> was made a magistrate by Governor Lachlan Macquarie, and he became a frequent guest at government house. His business dealings were extensive. He became one of Sydney's wealthiest men. He was at various times a retailer, auctioneer, sealer, pastoralist, timber merchant and manufacturer. He is mentioned in many Australian History books, in particular regarding his status as an emancipist.Background

<mask>, the fourth child of ten children of <mask> <mask> and Ann Fielden of Dobroyd (near Todmorden), Yorkshire, England, was born about 28 January 1771. On 22 April 1790, as a 19-year-old, he was convicted to 7 years transportation at the Manchester Quarter Sessions in Lancashire for the theft of 21 pieces of cloth, 100 yards (91 m) of calico and 100 yards (91 m) of muslin. <mask> was then transported to New South Wales as part of the Third Fleet on board the Atlantic. He arrived in Sydney on 20 August 1791,
and the convict lad was assigned to Captain Thomas Rowley of the New South Wales Corps. Businessman
<mask> developed many business interests in the colony, and became one of Sydney's wealthiest men. <mask>'s first known business venture was to run a drinking house, and he purchased a license for it in 1798 for £5, after his sentence had expired. The drinking house was documented as being called "The Swan", but when he renewed the license, for a further £5 in 1799, the name was documented as being The Black Swan.Simeon also

texts: signed as surety on James Squire's establishment called The Malting Shovel in 1799. In 1801 it was reported that "Simeon <mask> sells rum at 32/- a gallon" ... "these are Governor Kings regulations for the benefit of the Colony while American ships who would be glad to sell their liquor at 5/-, 6/- or 7/- per G. are turned away!". With help from the government like this, it is no wonder that <mask> prospered. In a few years <mask> had established a general merchandise and agency business, and in 1800 with a partner purchased a brig the Anna Josepha while partnered with shipwright James Underwood. He also became an auctioneer and prospered, a return made in 1804 said that the "estimated value of commercial articles imported from abroad in the hands of Simeon <mask> and other dealers was £15,000". Though his position was not comparable with that of Robert Campbell, it is clear that already he was one of the leading merchants of Sydney. His business was on the site of the corner of Bridge Street and Macquarie Place.In 1807 Governor William Bligh spoke adversely about his business dealings with the masters of ships, and Judge Field several years later spoke in a similar way. Aspersions of this kind against members of the emancipist class at this period must, however, be accepted with caution. No doubt <mask> was a keen business man well able to look after his own interests, but he also had enterprise and courage, valuable qualities in the developing colony. About 1805 <mask> began a relationship with Mary Hyde (1779–1864), a convict who had arrived in Australia in 1798. Mary already had two children from a previous

He and Mary went on to have 8 children of their own over the next 15 years. Also in 1805 <mask> went into partnership with Henry Kable and James Underwood, but their association ended in legal disputes in the courts of New South Wales, as did many of <mask>'s ventures.<mask> was immensely litigious, and his affairs also took up a large percentage of the early appeals from the Colony of New South Wales to the Privy Council in England. The records of the Privy Council indicate that his opponents may have had good grounds for arguing that he used the Privy Council as a means of warding off his creditors rather than in a genuine attempt to test the legality of judgments against him. In his partnership with Kable and Underwood he was active in developing the sealing boom at the Antipodes Islands to the south and east of New Zealand's South Island in 1805 to 1807. Before <mask> had begun his relationship with Mary Hyde, he had adopted the orphan Joanna Short (1792–1841). Joanna was the orphan of convicts Elizabeth Drury (died 1793) and Joseph Short (died 1795). In 1806 Simeon's adopted daughter, who was no more than 14, married Francis Williams, a business partner of <mask>'s, and the couple travelled together to London on business for <mask> in 1807. On the ship with Joanna he sent Mary Hyde's 6-year-old daughter Mary Ann Black into the care of her grandfather Reverend John Black in England.<mask> was engaged in trade with New Zealand, and in 1809

He had chartered the 'Boyd' and sent it to New Zealand to complete its cargo with a consignment of spars. The captain flogged a Māori chief for alleged misbehaviour, and in consequence the vessel was raided and looted, nearly everyone on board being killed. In spite of this disaster <mask> joined in an attempt to obtain a monopoly to establish a flax plantation in New Zealand, and manufacture canvas and cordage from it in Sydney. The monopoly was, however, not granted and <mask> turned his hands to other things. He employed a man to experiment in dyes and tanning, and was the first to weave with Australian wool. He succeeded in weavings coarse cloths, blankets and stockings and also made hats.Long before this, in May 1810, <mask> was made a magistrate and he became a frequent guest at government house. Governor Lachlan Macquarie in his dispatch to Viscount Castlereagh stating his intention to make <mask> a magistrate described him as "an opulent merchant". He was, however, a man of little education, and when John Bigge was making his investigations in 1819–20, the alleged unsuitability of <mask> for his position was used as a stick to beat Macquarie. <mask> soon afterwards resigned and appears to have been less prosperous in his business for a period. On 27 October 1814, at St Philip's Church, Sydney <mask> married his partner of many years, Mary Hyde. The marriage was held when their fifth child was only one week old. A witness to the wedding was William Wentworth, the son of the family friend D'Arcy

He did not come into public notice after this. <mask> became a large landholder during his lifetime, of both land he purchased himself, and of land grants. <mask>'s extensive land holdings included land at Petersham, Botany Bay and Tasmania. <mask> died "an immensely wealthy man" at the age of 69 on 29 January 1840 in the family home of "Banks House" at Botany. Legacy
<mask>'s sons also became well known in public life.One of them, George (1818–1880), a pastoralist, was elected to the first New South Wales Legislative Assembly in 1856, and transferred to the legislative council in 1877. George was colonial treasurer in the third Martin ministry from December 1870 to May 1872. His eldest son <mask> Jnr. (1810–1892) was a pastoralist in Tasmania and Queensland. Another son, Francis (1812–1897), was a member of parliament for many years, and a third son, Edward (1814–1884), became city treasurer at Sydney and mayor of St Leonards. His stepson John Henry Black (1799–1867) later became the first manager of the Bank of New South Wales. One of his sons-in-law was another successful merchant in Sydney, Prosper de Mestre (1789–1844) who married his stepdaughter Mary Ann Black (1801–1861).References

<mask> (1861–1913) was an American physician and X-ray pioneer. <mask> was the first radiologist at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania, founded the Philadelphia Roentgen Ray Society, and served as president of the American Roentgen Ray Society in 1904–1905. He was known as one of the foremost experts in urological X-ray diagnosis, and he was the first American physician to demonstrate kidney stone disease with X-rays. A native of Massachusetts, <mask> completed bachelor's degrees at the University of Pennsylvania and Harvard University, then returned to Penn for medical school. As a student, he was interested in photography, and after going to Europe to work in science laboratories, he developed an interest in photomicrography. <mask> captured microscopic images that furthered the understanding of the life cycles of microorganisms. <mask> was associated with University Hospital from the mid-1890s to 1902.He was first named an assistant instructor in clinical surgery under J. William White, and then he ran the hospital's X-ray service, which seemed to combine his interests in photography and surgical problems. While he was at Penn, <mask> opened a private office for taking X-rays. After he left the medical school, he devoted his time to this private practice as well as to writing about radiology and representing the specialty nationally and internationally at medical conferences. Like many of the pioneers in radiography, <mask> suffered from adverse effects of radiation exposure before the causes of these problems were fully understood. During his first several years of X-ray work, he believed that X-ray burns resulted from ungrounded electrical current, so he did not take precautions to shield his body from radiation. Before he died of radiation-induced cancer, <mask> had multiple operations, including the amputation of his entire right arm. Early life

 became a prominent Philadelphia attorney. The family could trace its ancestry back to  <mask>, who left England in 1632 to settle in Springfield, Massachusetts, and to William Brewster, who came to the U.S. on the Mayflower. Another of their forebears, <mask>, fought in the American Revolutionary War. <mask> grew up in Philadelphia, and he attended Rittenhouse Academy. He then earned bachelor's degrees at the University of Pennsylvania (1885) and Harvard University (1886). He received a medical degree from Penn in 1889, then went to Europe to observe some laboratory techniques. During his studies, <mask> was interested in photography and served as a model for Eadweard Muybridge's photographic study of human motion called Man Running.Career

Early work at Penn

<mask> took a position as an assistant instructor of clinical surgery at Penn, where he worked under surgeon J. William White. The university awarded him a Master of Arts in 1892 while he was already a faculty member. When Penn's William Pepper Clinical Laboratory opened in 1895, <mask> began conducting his laboratory work there. He became interested in photomicrography, which is the acquisition of photographic images from microscopes. He devised an electric lens-shutter that allowed him to capture microorganisms in different phases of their life cycles. In 1895, Wilhelm Röntgen produced the first X-rays. Early on, X-rays were used mostly for surgical applications.<mask> already had interests in surgery and photography, so he was fascinated by the potential for X-rays. A Philadelphia physicist named Arthur Willis Goodspeed set up a radiography laboratory near University Hospital, and the hospital initially sent its patients there for X-rays, but it became impractical to transport a patient to this facility each time a study was required. In September 1896, <mask> began running a hospital-wide X-ray service out of the Pepper Laboratory. White had a separate X-ray laboratory, but it was used almost solely for teaching purposes. While <mask>'s X-ray apparatus in

 the Pepper Laboratory was on the grounds of University Hospital, it still proved impractical to transport hospitalized patients there. <mask>'s X-ray equipment was relocated in late 1897 to the Agnew Memorial Pavilion, a brand new wing of the hospital, but the decision to move it there came after the new wing was fully designed. <mask> had a single X-ray exam room near the surgical dispensary, and the darkroom was so small that no visitors or students could observe <mask> as he developed the X-ray plates.<mask> imaged 141 hospital patients in 1901, and the most common studies were of the abdomen and pelvis; the exposure time for each patient could be as long as several minutes. <mask>'s influence in radiology quickly extended beyond University Hospital. In 1899, he was approached by Philadelphia General Hospital and asked to help a young physician, George E. Pfahler, with setting up an X-ray service at that hospital. <mask> advised Pfahler on the types of equipment to install, including a self-regulating X-ray tube that <mask> had success with from the Philadelphia-based James W. Queen & Company. Around this time, <mask> began conducting research and writing more extensively. He became interested in using X-rays to diagnose fractures and to locate foreign bodies in the eye. Later career and shift to private practice
During his time at Penn, <mask> also opened a private X-ray office in Philadelphia's Center City, and he became the director of the X-ray laboratories at Philadelphia Polyclinic and Methodist Episcopal Hospital.<mask> was the first American physician to identify kidney stones on an X-ray. While he continued to do general X-ray work, he gained a wide reputation for his ability to diagnose kidney stones. <mask> used an X-ray system consisting of accumulators and a Ruhmkorff coil with a low-voltage primary winding that excited a self-regulating X-ray tube. In 1936, radiologist Percy Brown wrote that <mask>'s intricate setup "was a source of great interest and some surprise to his contemporaries, but will

 amaze radiologists of a later generation who now read of them for the first time." <mask> examined more than 300 patients for kidney stones with this technique, and he said he had an error rate of three percent. He knew of 45 patients who had been taken to surgery despite no X-ray evidence of kidney stones, and he said that surgeons did not find kidney stones in any of those patients. <mask> influenced the surgical management of ureteral stones by showing that the patient was usually able to pass small stones in this area by themselves.<mask> was one of the first physicians to work with stereoroentgenography, which used stereoscopy to produce three-dimensional X-ray images that allowed physicians to better determine the anatomic relationships between organs. <mask> used the technique to visualize a patient's small intestine. He may have been the first American radiologist to define a dosage unit for radiation, though it was not possible to measure dosage at that point. Commenting on the possibility of employing radiation therapy, he said that physicians needed to be able to deliver a controlled dose, and the unit should be defined as "the unit quantity of electricity passing across a unit gap in unit time under the influences of radiation at unit distance under standard conditions of barometer and temperature." <mask> left Penn in 1902. Two things likely contributed to this decision: a busy schedule of other professional responsibilities and the onset of disabling tissue injuries from radiation exposure. He was heavily involved in the American Roentgen Ray Society, serving as its president for 1904–1905.He hosted a number of physicians at his office in 1905 to discuss their interest in radiology. This group became the Philadelphia Roentgen Ray Society, and <mask> was the organization's secretary until he died. He served as the American Medical Association (AMA) delegate to several international conferences on radiology, and he was an editor or associate editor for several medical journals. Personal life

 married Ruth Hodgson, and they had a daughter named Catherine Henrietta <mask>. Catherine married James Bennett Hance, a member of the Indian Medical Service, in Oxford in 1916. In his leisure time, <mask> enjoyed visiting the woods in Canada. X-ray injuries
In the earliest days of X-rays, a radiographer had to take an image of his own hands to test the X-ray tube before each patient image was taken.The fragile X-ray equipment had to be positioned precisely, and this required that the radiographer's face, hands and arms were in close proximity to the X-ray beam during these lengthy examinations. In the era before radiation safety was well understood, many X-ray pioneers suffered adverse effects from radiation overexposure. <mask> developed X-ray burns and then radiation-induced cancer that started in a finger and eventually traveled up the entire arm and to other parts of his body. Historian Rebecca Herzig wrote that the pain from <mask>'s radiation injuries "seems merely to have intensified his fascination with the ray"; she wrote that the ten-year period of <mask>'s most productive X-ray research corresponded to a decade of increasing physical suffering. <mask> mentioned X-ray burns in a presentation before the AMA in 1897. At that time, he shared the belief of many physicians that X-ray burns were caused by a lack of grounding of the electrical current from the apparatus. He laid an aluminum sheet between the patient and the X-ray tube and had a grounding wire that ran from the aluminum down to the floor.In an 1898 article in the New York Medical Journal, <mask> described a patient with inoperable cancer who underwent 25-minute X-ray exposures every day for three weeks. The surrounding areas were shielded with the aluminum sheet, and the patient sustained no X-ray burns (and received no therapeutic benefit). This strengthened <mask>'s belief that X-rays themselves were not the cause of what were known as X-ray burns. <mask> was so convinced of his electrical current explanation that for several years he did not

 take any precautions to shield his hands from radiation. The problems with <mask>'s hands worsened, and an already skeptical public most likely began to notice the injuries to his skin. At one point, still not fully aware of the risks of radiation and intrigued by the possibility of radiation therapy, <mask> purposely applied an intense dose of radiation to his hand. He had hoped that the radiation would kill any cancer cells and help him avoid further surgery or amputations.After this incident, the finger required amputation. A 1903 presentation showed that <mask> had become concerned about the X-ray beams themselves rather than the associated electrical current. He told attendees at that year's ARRS meeting that he had devised a lead-lined box that surrounded the X-ray tube in an attempt to prevent X-rays from scattering about the exam room. Death and legacy
During the final months of his life, <mask> spent much of his time collaborating with Austrian radiologist Guido Holzknecht on a review of radiography in gastrointestinal conditions that was to be read at the August 1913 meeting of the Section of Radiology of the International Congress of Medicine. In spite of significant pain and suffering, <mask> read through literature in English, French and German in preparing the work. A memorial issue of the American Journal of Roentgenology said that <mask> was known for bearing his illness in secret. In the summer of 1913, <mask> went to Atlantic City, New Jersey, where he was hoping that the sea air would improve his health.He became confined to bed soon after he arrived in Atlantic City, and he died there on September 22, 1913. He had undergone amputation of his hand several years earlier, and his entire arm was amputated a few months before he died. The American Roentgen Ray Society established the Charles Lester Leonard Prize to recognize outstanding contributions to X-ray technology. References

<mask> "Jacky<mask> (born 2 December 1947) is a French-American musician. Initially gaining fame as the drummer for secular rock band Les Variations, Bitton became a baal teshuva through Chabad in the late 1970s and subsequently began a career in contemporary Jewish music. Early history
Born in Casablanca, Morocco to a Jewish family, Bitton moved from Morocco to France alone at the age of 18. Together with his friends, he formed a rock group and played locally until getting noticed in 1969. Les Variations opened for some of the top billed rockers of the day, such as Bachman–Turner Overdrive, Kiss, The Jimi Hendrix Experience, Cream, Taste and Aerosmith. Having a close affinity to his Jewish roots, Bitton always wore the Star of David around his neck while performing. Bitton is said to have been rated at the time in the top three drummers of Europe.He jammed with John Bonham and Robert Plant in a club in Belgium. Jewish identity
<mask> met Chabad emissaries (shluchim) who helped him further discover his Orthodox Jewish heritage. Les Variations' end
By the end of 1975, Les Variations, with their new singer Robert Fitoussi, were nearing a deal to tour with the Rolling Stones. The deal did not come to fruition, however, because the singer soon left the group. <mask> took the opportunity to go to New York, where he met the Lubavitcher Rebbe for the first time. <mask> settled in the Chabad Lubavitch neighborhood of Crown Heights, Brooklyn, where he still lives with his family. Music career after Les Variations: crossover into modern Jewish music
In 1977, the Baal Shem Tov Band (BSTB) was formed at the Lubavitch Rabbinical College of America, in Morristown, New Jersey, as part of an

They were occasionally complemented by a violinist and a flutist who attended the college. Subsequently, <mask>, who had moved to the nearby Crown Heights section of Brooklyn, New York, joined and completed the group. With the addition of Bitton, Schmidt was able to move to lead guitar, Freeman to rhythm guitar, and Morgenstern to bass guitar. The combination of Schmidt's creative genius and powerful rock licks with Bitton's Sephardi/Moroccan rhythm and lead vocals produced an electric rock and roll sound. They played traditional Chabad nigunim (songs and melodies) to this beat at Chabad houses on college campuses and other venues, primarily on the Eastern seaboard of the United States. One of the highlights of each performance was Bitton's drum solo.A four-song demo was cut in a local studio, but the BSTB disbanded in 1978 as the rabbinical students began to graduate. The experience with the BSTB provided a transition for Bitton. Subsequently, he was the founding member of the Jewish music group "Raaya Mehemna" ("Faithful Servant" – a reference to a Kabbalistic work; the group was later renamed "Raava Mehemna"), which was formed in the early 1980s. <mask> was perhaps the first religious Jew to infuse music on religious Jewish themes with "non-Jewish" styles such as rock and soul. He helped establish the idea of Jewish rock with his heavy hitting style and brought real rock and roll showmanship to the Jewish stage. In the early 80's he released two albums titled "Songs

The opening group played with little response. Once <mask> began his set on the drums to the tune of "Im Ein Ani Li Mi Li" the crowd erupted. <mask> is widely known for his energetic drumming style, soulful powerful voice, and for fusing traditional Moroccan tunes and scales with R&B, blues, and soul. He has served as leader and cantor for a Sefardi synagogue in Crown Heights since the early 1980s, where his musical signature is evident in his cantorial renditions. Making headlines
<mask> has played some shows geared toward an Orthodox Jewish audience, but has not rekindled his music career to his former level of a chart topping rock musician. He has since served as a hotel manager for the Crown Palace Hotel in Crown Heights and as a kosher food supervisor (mashgiach).1990s
In 1991, Bitton made headlines when he was hit by rocks and bottles, during the Crown Heights Riot. Due to the rioting, Bitton called a cab to take him and his son to his house. The driver refused to take them all the way to their house, letting them off one block away. Police were stationed at each end of the street. They informed Bitton it was safe to continue, and no police accompanied them. However, within a block, they were attacked by an angry mob of Caribbean American, West Indian, and African American rioters. The Bittons were removed from the scene by local residents and reporters, including Peter Noel, a West Indian journalist for the Village Voice.<mask> suffered a torn rotator cuff and required 10 stitches to his

 head. His son was struck by bottles and bricks, and suffered hearing loss and psychological damage. Riot police saw the attack but failed to respond, choosing instead to radio for reinforcements. This was due to their instructions to remain in fixed positions during the early stages of the rioting. The police reinforcements were also met by an attack of rocks and bottles from the rioters, but none of the rioters were arrested. Subsequently, <mask> sued and was awarded $200,000 by New York City. 2000s
<mask> was the subject of news stories and blogs when he challenged the kosher status of a restaurant he was supervising for the Jewish agency, the Orthodox Union (OU).He made allegations that the chef was intentionally making food unkosher, but the OU disagreed with his assessment. <mask> believed he had an obligation to report a cover-up to Jewish consumers. He quit the position, posted his views on his blog, and distributed emails about his account of the debate. Discography

title: Antonio da Correggio

texts:
<mask> (August 1489 – 5 March 1534), usually known as just <mask> (, also , , ), was the foremost painter of the Parma school of the High Italian Renaissance, who was responsible for some of the most vigorous and sensuous works of the sixteenth century. In his use of dynamic composition, illusionistic perspective and dramatic foreshortening, <mask> prefigured the Baroque art of the seventeenth century and the Rococo art of the eighteenth century. He is considered a master of chiaroscuro. Biography

<mask> was born in Correggio, a small town near Reggio Emilia. His date of birth is uncertain (around 1489). His father was a merchant. Otherwise little is known about <mask>'s early life or training.It is, however, often assumed that he had his first artistic education from his father's brother, the painter Lorenzo Allegri. In 1503–1505, he was apprenticed to Francesco Bianchi Ferrara in Modena, where he probably became familiar with the classicism of artists like Lorenzo Costa and Francesco Francia, evidence of which can be found in his first works. After a trip to Mantua in 1506, he returned to Correggio, where he stayed until 1510. To this period is assigned the Adoration of the Child with St. Elizabeth and John, which shows clear influences from Costa and Mantegna. In 1514, he probably finished three tondos for the entrance of the church of Sant'Andrea in Mantua, and then returned to Correggio, where, as an independent and increasingly renowned artist, he signed a contract for the Madonna altarpiece in the local monastery of St. Francis (now in the Dresden Gemäldegalerie). One of his sons, Pomponio Allegri, became an undistinguished painter. Both father and son occasionally referred to themselves using the Latinized form of the family

 name, Laeti.Works in Parma

By 1516, <mask> was in Parma, where he spent most of the remainder of his career. Here, he befriended Michelangelo Anselmi, a prominent Mannerist painter. In 1519 he married Girolama Francesca di Braghetis, also of Correggio, who died in 1529. From this period are the Madonna and Child with the Young Saint John, Christ Leaving His Mother and the lost Madonna of Albinea. <mask>'s first major commission (February–September 1519) was the ceiling decoration of a private chamber of the mother-superior (abbess Giovanna Piacenza) of the convent of St. Paul in Parma, now known as Camera di San Paolo. Here he painted an arbor pierced by oculi opening to glimpses of playful cherubs. Below the oculi are lunettes with images of statues in feigned monochromic marble.The fireplace is frescoed with an image of Diana. The iconography of the scheme is complex, combining images of classical marbles with whimsical colorful bambini. He then painted the illusionistic Vision of St. John on Patmos (1520–21) for the dome of the church of San Giovanni Evangelista. Three years later he decorated the dome of the Cathedral of Parma with a startling Assumption of the Virgin, crowded with layers of receding figures in Melozzo's perspective (sotto in su, from down to up). These two works represented a highly novel illusionistic sotto in su treatment of dome decoration that would exert a profound influence upon future fresco artists, from Carlo Cignani in his fresco Assumption of the Virgin, in the cathedral church of Forlì, to Gaudenzio Ferrari in his frescoes for the cupola of Santa Maria dei Miracoli in Saronno, to Pordenone in his now-lost fresco from Treviso, and to the baroque elaborations of Lanfranco and Baciccio in Roman churches.

texts:
 The massing of spectators in a vortex, creating both narrative and decoration, the illusionistic obliteration of the architectural roof-plane, and the thrusting perspective toward divine infinity, were devices without precedent, and which depended on the extrapolation of the mechanics of perspective. The recession and movement implied by the figures presage the dynamism that would characterize Baroque painting.Other masterpieces include The Lamentation and The Martyrdom of Four Saints, both at the Galleria Nazionale of Parma. The Lamentation is haunted by a lambency rarely seen in Italian painting prior to this time. The Martyrdom is also remarkable for resembling later Baroque compositions such as Bernini's Truth and Ercole Ferrata's Death of Saint Agnes, showing a gleeful saint entering martyrdom. Mythological series based on Ovid's Metamorphoses

Aside from his religious output, <mask> conceived a now-famous set of paintings depicting the Loves of Jupiter as described in Ovid's Metamorphoses. The voluptuous series was commissioned by Federico II Gonzaga of Mantua, probably to decorate his private Ovid Room in the Palazzo Te. However, they were given to the visiting Holy Roman Emperor Charles V and thus left Italy within years of their completion. Leda and the Swan – acquired by Frederick the Great in 1753; now in Staatliche Museen of Berlin – is a tumult of incidents: in the centre Leda straddles a swan, and on the right, a shy but satisfied maiden.Danaë, now in Rome's Borghese Gallery, depicts the maiden as she is impregnated by a curtain of gilded divine rain. Her lower torso semi-obscured by sheets, Danae appears more demure and gleeful than Titian's 1545 version of the same topic, where the rain is more accurately numismatic.

 The picture once called Antiope and the Satyr is now correctly identified as Venus and Cupid with a Satyr. Ganymede Abducted by the Eagle depicts the young man aloft in literal amorous flight. Some have interpreted the conjunction of man and eagle as a metaphor for the evangelist John; however, given the erotic context of this and other paintings, this seems unlikely. This painting and its partner, the masterpiece of Jupiter and Io, are in Kunsthistorisches Museum of Vienna. Ganymede Abducted by the Eagle, one of the four mythological paintings commissioned by Federico II Gonzaga, is a proto-Baroque work due to its depiction of movement, drama, and diagonal compositional arrangement.Death
Returning to his home town in later years, <mask> died there suddenly on 5 March 1534. The following day he was buried in San Francesco in Correggio near his youthful masterpiece, the 'Madonna di San Francesco', housed today in Dresden. The precise location of his tomb is now unknown. Evaluation

<mask> was remembered by his contemporaries as a shadowy, melancholic, and introverted character. An enigmatic and eclectic artist, he appears to have emerged from no major apprenticeship. In addition to the influence of Costa, there are echoes of Mantegna's style in his work, and a response to <mask> Vinci, as well. <mask> had little immediate influence in terms of apprenticed successors, but his works are now considered to have been revolutionary and influential on subsequent artists.A half-century after his death <mask>'s work was well known to Vasari, who felt that he had not had enough "Roman" exposure to make him a better painter. In the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, his works were often noted in the diaries of foreign visitors to Italy, which

 led to a reevaluation of his art during the period of Romanticism. The flight of the Madonna in the vault of the cupola of the Cathedral of Parma inspired many scenographical decorations in lay and religious palaces during those centuries. <mask>'s illusionistic experiments, in which imaginary spaces replace the natural reality, seem to prefigure many elements of Mannerist, Baroque, and Rococo stylistic approaches. He appears to have fostered artistic grandchildren, for example, Giovannino di Pomponio Allegri (1521–1593). <mask> had no direct disciples outside of Parma, where he was influential on the work of Giovanni Maria <mask>, Parmigianino, Bernardo Gatti, Francesco Madonnina, and Giorgio Gandini del Grano.

title: Évariste Régis Huc

texts:
Évariste <mask>, C.M., also known as the Abbé Huc (1813–1860), was a French Catholic priest, Lazarite missionary, and traveller. He became famous for his accounts of Qing-era China, Mongolia (then known as "Tartary"), and especially the then-almost-unknown Tibet in his book Remembrances of a Journey in Tartary, Tibet, and China. He and his companion Joseph Gabet were the first Europeans who had reached Lhasa since Thomas Manning in 1812. Life

Early life
<mask> was born in Caylus in the department of Tarn-et-Garonne, France, on 1 August 1813. In 1837, at age 24, he entered the Congregation of the Mission (then better known as the "Lazarites") at their priory in Paris. He took holy orders as a priest two years later. In China

Shortly afterwards, he sought the chance to work at the Lazarite mission in China, which had replaced the Jesuits' in 1783.He studied mission work and Chinese at its seminary on Macao under J.G. Perboyre (later martyred and canonized as a saint) for eighteen months. When his Chinese was considered sufficient, he disguised himself for work on the mainland by growing out his hair, cutting it into the obligatory queue, wearing loose Chinese garments, and dyeing his skin to a yellower shade. He took a ship up the Pearl River to Guangzhou ("Canton") and oversaw a mission in the southern provinces for a time. He then traveled north to Beijing ("Peking"), where he improved his Mandarin. In Mongolia
He then settled in the Valley

 of Black Waters or Heishui,  north of Beijing and just within the borders of Mongolia. There, beyond the Great Wall of China, a large but scattered population of native Christians had taken refuge from the persecutions of the Jiaqing Emperor ("Kia-king") who had added Christianity to China's list of condemned superstitions and cults, threatening missionaries with execution and converts with enslavement to the Muslims of Xinjiang.Huc devoted himself to the study of the dialects and customs of the "Tartars," for whom he translated several religious texts. Mission to Tibet
<mask>'s intention was to travel from China to Lhasa, and from there to India (much as Xuanzang had travelled via Tashkent, Samarkand and Taxila much earlier, in the 7th century). This work prepared him for his journey to Tibet in 1844 at the instigation of the vicar apostolic of Mongolia. By September 1844 he reached Dolon Nor and made arrangements for his journey. Soon after, accompanied by his fellow-Vincentian, Joseph Gabet, and a young Mongour priest who had embraced Christianity, he set out. To escape attention the party assumed the dress of lamas or priests. Crossing the Yellow River, they advanced into the terrible sandy tract known as the Ordos Desert.After suffering dreadfully from want of water and fuel they entered Gansu, having recrossed the flooded Yellow River. Upon entering Kuen-Kiang-Hien both missionaries fell dreadfully ill and had to put the journey on hold

 to Tibet as imperial commissioner. Sensing the potential trouble if <mask> and Gabet were to reach India from Tibet, Qishan expelled Gabet and Huc from Lhasa on 26 February 1846 under guard. Following an official inquiry into their motives for being in Tibet, they were officially escorted to Canton in October 1846. In Guangzhou
Abbé Gabet returned to Europe in late 1846 in the company of Alexander Johnston, secretary to John Francis Davis, British minister plenipotentiary to China. Davis reported Gabet's exciting information with its strategic significance about Central Asia to Palmerston. Gabet went on to Rio de Janeiro, where he died soon afterwards. <mask> remained at Canton for nearly three years, writing his account of travels in China and Central Asia.His Remembrances of a Journey in Tartary, Tibet, and China, published in Paris in 1850, was well received. In Europe
<mask> returned to Europe in poor health in 1852, but he published a sequel to the Remembrances in 1854 and a large work on the entire history of Christianity in China, which came out in 1857 and 1858. In his last years he took an active role in events in Cochin China. He urged Napoléon III to take action, saying, "The Far East will soon be the theater of great events. If the emperor wills, France will be able to play an important and glorious role there." Napoleon took the first steps to establish a French colonial influence in East Asia. He launched a naval expedition in

 1858 to punish the Vietnamese people for their mistreatment of French Catholic missionaries and demanded that the Vietnamese cede the port of Tourane and the island of Poulo-Condor, under an old treaty of 1787, which had never been used.This eventually led to a full-out invasion in 1861. <mask> died in Paris on 31 March 1860. Works
His Remembrances of a Journey in Tartary, Tibet, and China during the Years 1844, 1845, and 1846 () appeared in Paris in 1850. It was soon published in English, in 1851. A German translation appeared in Leipzig in 1855, followed by Dutch, Spanish, Italian, Swedish, Russian and Czech (Prague, 1887). It was one of the favorite books of the writer Jaroslav Hašek. Popular editions followed, including an illustrated, simplified story text for schoolboys.It was abridged and translated by Julie Bedier as High Road in Tartary (1948). <mask>'s works are written in a lucid, spicy, picturesque style, securing for them an unusual degree of popularity. However, his esteem for Tibetan manners and religion was not welcomed by his Church:  "The late Abbé <mask> pointed out the similarities between the Buddhist and Roman Catholic ceremonials with such a naïveté, that, to his surprise, he found his delightful 'Travels in Thibet' placed on the 'Index'." The Souvenirs is a narrative of a remarkable feat of travel. Huc was unjustly suspected of sensationalizing his travels. Although a careful observer, he was by no means a practical

texts: geographer. The record of his travels lacks precise scientific data.The authenticity of <mask>'s journey was questioned by the Russian traveller, Nikolai Przhevalsky, but vindicated by others. Of course, both <mask> and Gabet had written brief reports of their journey from 1847 on for the "Annales de la Propagation de la Foi" and the "Annales de la Congrégation de la Mission". More recently, <mask>'s writings have been criticized for presenting 'facts' negatively because of his heavy western-European/Christian view point. Retrospectively, his writings could be considered in the same category as Truman Capote's "In Cold Blood", aka a nonfiction novel. The sequel, The Chinese Empire (1854) is a more comprehensive compendium of the religion, laws, usages and institutions of China, followed by a multi-volume history of Christianity in China and Central Asia. Huc gives many accounts of Chinese culture, and religion, including Christianity throughout the history of China. He also goes into detail about the three traditional Chinese religions, Daoism, Buddhism and Confucianism.In his attempt to spread Christianity he remarks on the status of women in China. During this time period women were expected to act in certain ways. As a married woman, you were expected to be a shadow of the man in the house. Being in this situation of social bondage inspired many women to convert to Christianity, which provided education and a social community. At this time

<mask> (20 January 1499 Donauwörth, Swabia – c. 1543 Basel, Switzerland) was a 16th-century German freethinker, humanist, and radical reformer. Biography
<mask> was born in 1499 in Donauwörth, Swabia. Because of this he styled himself <mask>rd. He entered the University of Ingolstadt on 26 March 1515, and afterwards went to Bethlehem College, incorporated with the university, as an institution of the Dominicans at Heidelberg. Here he met Martin Bucer and Martin Frecht, with whom he might have attended Luther's Heidelberg disputation in October 1518. Originally ordained as a priest, in 1525 <mask> went over to the Reformed party at Nuremberg and became preacher at Gustenfelden. His first work was a German translation (with additions) of the first part of the Diallage (or Conciliatio locorum Scripturae), directed against Sacramentarians and Anabaptists by Andrew Althamer, then deacon of St. Sebald at Nuremberg.On 17 March 1528 he married Ottilie Beham, supposedly the sister of the "godless" painters, Bartholomew and Sebald Beham, pupils of Albrecht Dürer and followers of Hans Denck. In the same year he wrote a treatise against drunkenness. In 1529 he produced a free version of the Supplycacyon of the Beggers, written by the English Protestant Simon Fish. <mask>, in his preface, says the original was in English; elsewhere he says it was in Latin; the theory that his German was really the original is not warranted. Advance in his religious ideas led him to seek the

Not interpreting this as applying to works printed outside Ulm, he published in 1538 at Augsburg his Guldin Arch and at Frankfort his Germaniae chronicon, with the result that he had to leave Ulm in January 1539. He seems to have had no settled abode from that time. At Basel he found work as a printer, and it was probably there that he died in the winter of 1542–1543. He had published in 1539 his Kriegbuchlein des Friedens, his Schrifftliche und ganz grundliche Auslegung des 64 Psalms, and his Das verbutschierte mit sieben Siegein verschlossene Buch (a biblical index, exhibiting the dissonance of Scripture). In 1541 he published his Spruchwörter (a collection of proverbs).In 1542 he issued a new edition of his Paradoxa and some smaller works. Franck combined the humanist's passion for freedom with the mystic's devotion to the religion of the spirit. Luther contemptuously dismissed him as a mouthpiece of the devil. Martin Frecht of Nuremberg pursued him with bitter zeal. But his courage did not fail him, and in his last year, in a public Latin letter, he exhorted his friend Johann Campanus to maintain freedom of thought in face of the charge of heresy. <mask> came to believe that God communicates with individuals through a portion of the divine remaining in each human being. He came to dismiss the human institution of the church, and believed that theology could not properly claim to give expression to this inner word of God in the heart of the

<mask> (born September 1, 1959) is an American politician who served as the Speaker of the Texas House of Representatives from 2009 to 2019. A Republican, he represented District 121, which comprises northeastern Bexar County, including part of San Antonio, Texas, and several surrounding communities from his first election to the House in 2005 until his retirement in 2019. He chose not to seek re-election to the state House in 2018. During his career in the state House, Straus was a moderate, "business-friendly, country club Republican" who sometimes clashed with the party's social conservative wing. Toward the end of his five terms as speaker, Straus faced opposition from more conservative factions within the Texas Republican Party, led by Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick, who regarded Straus as insufficiently conservative, and another conservative group that spent millions of dollars in attempts to defeat Straus and allied state legislators in Republican primary elections. Straus' political career began as a follower of senator John Tower, who was known in part for his opposition towards the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Early life, education, and business career
His mother, <mask>, was a Republican Party fund-raiser and close friend of President George H.W.Bush and his wife, Barbara, during Bush's two U.S. Senate races and his bids for the White House. <mask> is a San Antonio native and a fifth-generation Texan.

Elections to the Texas House

2005
Straus joined the House after winning a special election to replace District 121 state Representative Elizabeth Ames Jones in 2005. 2012
<mask> was renominated to the Texas House in the Republican primary held on May 29, 2012. With 10,362 votes (62.9 percent), he defeated opponent Matt Stewart Beebe (born 1973), who polled 6,108 ballots (37.1 percent). In the November 6 general election, <mask> faced no Democratic opponent and defeated the Libertarian nominee, Arthur M. Thomas, IV, 50,530 (80.2 percent) to 12,444 (19.8 percent). 2014
<mask> was again renominated to the Texas House in the Republican primary held on March 4, 2014. He received 9,224 votes (61.2 percent) to 5,842 (38.8 percent) for Matt Beebe, who again challenged the Speaker. 2016
Two Tea Party movement candidates, Shelia Vernette Bean and former Olmos Park City Council member Jeff M. Judson, challenged Straus in the primary election on March 1, 2016.<mask> raised $8 million for his 2016 primary contest with Bean and Judson. Judson, meanwhile, received a $50,000 contribution from a pastor and fracking entrepreneur, Farris Wilks of Cisco in Eastland County.

Bean and Judson criticized Straus as having been insufficient aggressive in promoting anti-sanctuary cities legislation, abortion restrictions and school vouchers. Judson also challenged Straus on property taxes in Texas, although Texas property taxes are set by municipal officials, not state officials such as Straus, and although Texas has no state income taxes. In a campaign email, Judson invoked blamed a 2015 murder by a Mexican illegal immigrant on Straus; the email was criticized by Susan Pamerleau, who defended Straus, said that Judson's "use of a grieving father to accuse <mask>us of a horrific murder committed by a career criminal is deplorable and irresponsible"; and said that "No one has done more to secure the border than" Straus. Straus said that his record includes improvements in the water infrastructure, transportation, and public and higher education.Straus was endorsed by the San Antonio Express-News, which hailed him as a "decent, effective leader [who] has focused on solving major problems that face the state, such as ... transportation and water" and noted that he successfully pushed to passage "conservative issues "on many fronts", including tough abortion restrictions, the defunding of Planned Parenthood, and the state's voter identification law. <mask>'s San Antonio colleague, Republican Lyle Larson, in a campaign letter to the San Antonio Express-News, praised the Speaker as "not flashy, nor is he politically motivated. He's just interested in getting the job done. ... [He] has led the Texas House in passing some of the most conservative and constructive legislation in Texas history ..." John Shields, a Republican former state representative and former member of the Texas State Board of Education, supported Judson.

The newspaper said Straus "treats everyone fairly, and that approach should be commended instead of condemned." Speakership

Challenge to Tom Craddick
<mask> became speaker in 2009, after a revolt initiated on New Year's Day by eleven House Republican members against Speaker Tom Craddick of Midland, the senior Republican in the Texas House. The anti-Craddick group of eleven Republicans (known as "Anybody but Craddick" or "ABCs") joined with all state House Democrats to oppose Craddick; in multiple rounds of balloting, the ABCs selected Straus as their challenger to unseat Craddick, and eventually obtained the necessary votes to oust him. After becoming speaker, Straus appointed 18 Republicans and 16 Democrats to committee chairmanships, which reflected the 76-74 makeup of the House. Republicans continued to chair major committees including Appropriations, Calendars, Public Education and State Affairs. Tenure as speaker
<mask> ran without opposition as Speaker on January 13, 2009.He was reelected to a fourth two-year term as Speaker six years later on January 13, 2015, in the first recorded vote for Speaker in forty years. In January 2013, <mask> faced intraparty conservative opposition for a third term as Speaker from Representative David Simpson of Longview. Simpson entered the race for Speaker in December 2012, after

However, Simpson withdrew before the balloting for Speaker began, and <mask> was reelected without opposition on January 8, 2013. Rep. Todd Ames Hunter, a Republican from Corpus Christi, pointed to Straus' even-handed approach to leadership as the reason for his success in keeping the gavel. "The Speaker is exceptional in working with members, said Hunter, an ally of the speaker. "What you've seen within the last week is he has a strong, diverse support base."In January 2015, <mask> was challenged again as Speaker by Representative Scott Turner, an African American from Frisco. It was the first recorded Texas Speaker vote since 1976. Late in the campaign, the Houston Chronicle reported that Turner tried to attract the support of Democrats in order to save his campaign, but the Democrats and the overwhelming majority of Republicans stuck with Straus. Despite considerable attention from Tea Party movement groups and the media, Turner received only 19 votes to <mask>' 128. As Speaker, Straus put an emphasis on bipartisan cooperation, compromise, and on issues such as budget transparency, education, higher education, water and transportation.
