title: Henry Fitzalan-Howard, 15th Duke of Norfolk

texts:
<mask>, 15th Duke of Norfolk,  (27 December 184711 February 1917), styled Lord Maltravers until 1856 and Earl of Arundel and Surrey between 1856 and 1860, was a British Unionist politician and philanthropist. He served as Postmaster General between 1895 and 1900, but is best remembered for his philanthropic work, which concentrated on Roman Catholic causes and the city of Sheffield. Background
Norfolk was the eldest son of <mask>, 14th Duke of Norfolk, and Augusta Mary Minna Catherine, younger daughter of Edmund Lyons, 1st Baron Lyons. Edmund Fitzalan-Howard, 1st Viscount Fitzalan of Derwent, was his younger brother. The Duke was first educated at The Oratory School, but owing to restrictions from the Catholic Hierarchy he was unable to attend either Oxford or Cambridge Universities. His higher education instead consisted of a Grand Tour of Europe around 1867 under the guidance of classical scholar and biographer Robert Ornsby. Public career
Norfolk succeeded to the dukedom at the age of 12 on the death of his father 25 November 1860.He also succeeded to the hereditary office of Earl Marshal held by the <mask> of Norfolk. On 5 April 1871 he was commissioned as Captain in the part-time 9th (Arundel) Sussex Rifle Volunteer Corps, which had been raised by his father just before his death. He was promoted to Major in the 2nd Sussex Rifle Volunteers on 4 March 1882. In 1895 he was sworn of the Privy Council and appointed Postmaster General by Lord Salisbury, a post he held until early 1900, when he resigned in order to serve in the Boer War. In 1895 he also became Mayor of Sheffield; serving two terms during which he arranged the city's monumental celebrations in honour of Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee in 1897. Shortly thereafter he was

He was appointed an honorary Freeman of the City of Sheffield three years later.In November 1900 he became the first Mayor of Westminster and, at age 53, went to the Second Boer War as a lieutenant colonel in the Imperial Yeomanry, in the course of which he was wounded near Pretoria and invalided back to Britain. After the end of the war he was promoted to Lieutenant-Colonel Commandant of the his volunteer battalion (now the 2nd Volunteer Battalion, Royal Sussex Regiment) on 24 December 1902, and chaired the Royal Commission on Militia and Volunteers that was established in 1903.The commission attempted to define the role of the auxiliary forces, and made detailed proposals on how their deficiencies in training and equipment could be addressed. Norfolk's commission proposed a Home Defence Army raised by conscription, which was unpopular with the Volunteers and Yeomanry, and was quickly shelved. However, in conjunction with the Elgin Commission on the War in South Africa, the Norfolk Commission's work influenced the creation of the Territorial Force (TF) under the 1908 Haldane Reforms, which subsumed the old Volunteer Force. He retired from command of the 4th Battalion, Royal Sussex Regiment (as the battalion had become in the TF) in 1913 after 42 years' service. In his capacity as Earl Marshal the duke arranged the state funerals of William Ewart Gladstone (1898), Queen Victoria (1901), and King Edward VII (1910), and the coronations of Edward VII (1902) and George V (1911). Apart from serving as Earl Marshal between 1860 and 1917, <mask> was Lord Lieutenant of Sussex between 1905 and 1917.He was made a Knight of the Garter in 1886, and received

As is common with the Dukes of Norfolk, but exceptional within the British aristocracy, Norfolk was a Roman Catholic. In his dual role as Premier Duke and most prominent Roman Catholic in England, he undertook a programme of philanthropy which served in part to reintegrate Roman Catholics into civic life. He was born a generation after the Catholic Relief Act 1829 but before the reconstitution of Roman Catholic dioceses in 1850. By the time he came of age as Duke in 1868, the process of Catholic Emancipation had made the establishment of Catholic institutions legal, but the reality of two hundred years of legislation in favour of the Church of England left Roman Catholics with few structures of their own. Norfolk's first major benefaction commemorated his coming of age as Duke.At his ancestral seat of Arundel Castle (being also one of the Earls of Arundel), he sponsored the construction of the Church of Our Lady and St Philip Neri between 1868 and 1873. This church was later chosen to serve as Arundel Cathedral in 1965 and rededicated in 1971 to include

 unmarried for nearly seventeen years.On 7 February 1904, at age 56, he married, as his second wife, his first cousin once removed, the Hon. Gwendolen Constable-Maxwell, eldest daughter of Marmaduke Constable-Maxwell, 11th Lord Herries of Terregles and the Hon. Angela Mary Charlotte, daughter of Edward Fitzalan-Howard, 1st Baron Howard of Glossop. She was 30 years his junior, and aged 27 at their wedding. They had four children:

Lady Mary Rachel Fitzalan-Howard (27 June 1905 – 17 August 1992)
Bernard Fitzalan-Howard, 16th Duke of Norfolk (1908–1975)
Lady Katherine Mary Fitzalan-Howard, (1912–2000)
Lady Winifred Alice Fitzalan-Howard, (31 October 1914 – 27 May 2006)

In 1908 Gwendolen succeeded her father as Lady Herries of Terregles. The <mask> of Norfolk died in February 1917, aged 69, and was succeeded in the dukedom by his only surviving son, Bernard. On his death, Lord Curzon  said he was a man "who was diffident about powers which were in excess of the ordinary".The Duchess of Norfolk died in August 1945, aged 68. She was succeeded in the Scottish lordship of parliament by her son, Bernard. Ancestry

<mask><mask> (born March 30, 1934) is an American Roman Catholic priest and moral theologian. He currently serves at Southern Methodist University in Dallas, Texas, as the Elizabeth Scurlock University Professor of Human Values. Biography
<mask> grew up in Rochester, New York, and was ordained there in 1958 for the Diocese of Rochester. After intensive graduate work and earning two doctorates in theology in Rome, <mask> taught at the seminary in Rochester, New York. In 1965 he joined the theology faculty at the Catholic University of America in Washington, D.C. Contrary to some sources, he did not serve as a peritus or expert at the Second Vatican Council (1962-1965). That distinction belonged to <mask>, a member of the psychology department at Loyola University Chicago.In April 1967, university trustees voted to let <mask><mask>'s tenure stream appointment lapse rather than reappoint him, primarily because of his dissenting views on contraception. After a faculty-led strike that included students, the university reversed its position on <mask> two weeks later and the trustees not only reappointed him, but also promoted him to associate professor with tenure. <mask> then returned to prominence. In 1968 he was part of the group of 87 theologians that authored a response to Humanae vitae, Pope Paul VI's encyclical affirming the traditional ban on artificial contraception. <mask> continued to teach and write on the church's teaching on various moral issues, including premarital sex, masturbation, contraception, abortion, homosexual acts, divorce, euthanasia, and in vitro fertilization, throughout the 1970s and 1980s. <mask> was again removed from the faculty of the Catholic University of America in 1986 as a dissident against

texts: the Catholic Church's moral teaching. He maintains in his 1986 Faithful Dissent that Catholics who may dissent nevertheless accept the teaching authority of the pope, bishops and the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith.<mask> contended in 1971 that homosexual acts, in the context of a committed relationship, fell short of the ideal but were to be considered good for homosexual people; he stated that "I had come to accept the moral legitimacy of a union of two gay men or lesbians." In 1992, he said that "the official hierarchical Roman Catholic teaching should accept the moral value and goodness" of same-sex relationships, not excepting those that include sex. However, he has since recognized shortcomings in this argument, albeit without explicitly stating a change of position. <mask> has stated that the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith systematically attempted to silence authors critical of teachings on homosexuality, citing the "highlighting" of errors in Dr. John J. McNeill's The Church and the Homosexual. In 1986, the Vatican declared that <mask> could no longer teach theology at the Catholic University of America schools, and he was neither suitable nor eligible to be a professor of Catholic theology. <mask> sued the university for wrongful dismissal and breach of contract and lost. Although a tenured professor (<mask> retained his tenure status, but his ecclesiastical mission to teach Catholic theology was revoked) "clashes with Church authorities finally culminated in a decision by the Sacred Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, headed by then-Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger [later Pope Benedict XVI]".The areas of dispute included publishing articles that debated theological and ethical views

 regarding divorce, "artificial contraception", "masturbation, pre-marital intercourse and homosexual acts." As noted in an American Association of University Professors (AAUP) report, "Had it not been for the intervention of the Sacred Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, Professor <mask> would undoubtedly still be active in the [Catholic University's] Department of Theology, a popular teacher, honored theologian, and respected colleague." <mask>'s attorneys argued that CUA did not follow proper procedures or its own policy statements in handling the case. In essence, CUA claimed that the Vatican's actions against <mask> trumped any campus-based policy or tenure rules. In 1989, he filed suit against Catholic University, and the court determined that the university had the right to fire him for teaching views in contradiction to the school's religion. While the controversy was unfolding, <mask> taught as a visiting professor at Cornell University and Auburn University. Since then, <mask> has taken a full tenured professorship at Southern Methodist University and has published personal accounts about his experience with the Roman Catholic Church and his viewpoint on the actions of Roman Catholic Church authorities.Since he continues to dissent from orthodox Catholic Church teaching, <mask> has been deemed, by the Vatican, unfit to teach Catholic theology. <mask> is a major financial benefactor of SMU's Catholic organization. He has remained a controversial figure. His invitation to speak at St. Patrick's College, Maynooth, County Kildare, Ireland in 2006, was controversial, with the college president, Mgr. Dermot Farrell, denying any involvement without actually preventing him speaking. Education

<mask> (12 December 1802 – 2 June 1892) was a naturalist, artist, and entomologist, and was born at Cranmore House, Belfast, Ireland. Life and work

<mask> was the son of <mask>, and was educated in Belfast Academical Institution, which was in part his father's creation. In 1821 he left Ireland for Edinburgh, Scotland to study medicine and following graduation practised in the University hospital. In the same year he became a Member of the Belfast Natural History Society. In 1833 (6 May) he was commissioned as Assistant Surgeon in the Royal Artillery, initially stationed at the Royal Artillery Barracks, Woolwich, close to London, England. In 1834, <mask> was stationed to Mauritius and in 1835 to Rio de Janeiro and Recife. From Rio (1835) he took ship to Colombo, Ceylon, via the Cape of Good Hope and in this year became a Corresponding Member of the Zoological Society of London.A brief sojourn in Ceylon was followed by a stay in Malta (1836). Later in 1836 he moved on to Corfu and Albania. In all these places <mask> collected insects and other invertebrates and in 1839 he became a Corresponding Member of the Entomological Society of London. A twelve-year stay in

 Ceylon (1839–1851) followed, and in 1847 <mask> was promoted from Assistant Surgeon to Surgeon. In these years at various times he visited Southern India – Madras, Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh, Kerala, Karnataka- and twice Northern India Uttarakhand and Kashmir. Recalled from Ceylon in 1852 due to the unrest in Europe which was to erupt in the bloody and terrible Crimean War, he served in the Crimea from March 1854–1856 and was promoted to Surgeon-Major on 7 December 1855. He retired with the honorary rank of Deputy Inspector General of Hospitals on 31 January 1860.Work on Thysanura

<mask> was particularly interested in the Thysanura and his first published entomological paper concerns these insects. Thysanurae hibernicae (Irish bristle tails and spring-tails) was published in the first volume of the Transactions of the Entomological Society of London for 1836 and is the first significant work in English on these primitive insects, remaining so until 1875. In this short work prefaced by John Obadiah <mask> described two new genera and twelve new species accompanied by two plates showing whole animals and details of structure. Forty years later the entomologist

 Lubbock paid tribute to <mask>'s early work by naming a thysanuran genus after him — <mask>ia. Work on spiders

Much of <mask>'s early work and very much in Ceylon was on spiders. Studies of Irish spiders were passed to John Blackwall who incorporated the notes and drawings into his own work. Oddly, although he collected my old pets the spiders, he published very little on them.Work on Sri Lankan arthropods
In Ceylon <mask> worked mainly on Lepidoptera, Coleoptera and Hymenoptera alongside Edgar Leopold Layard (1824–1900). New species of Lepidoptera collected by <mask> and Layard were described by Frederic Moore, Francis Walker and <mask> Gray. The new Coleoptera were described by Joseph Sugar Baly, Francis Walker, John Obadiah Westwood, Carl August Dohrn and Francis Polkinghorne Pascoe. <mask>'s publications on Lepidoptera amount to some general comments on papilionid butterflies and two species descriptions — Oiketicus terlius and Oiketicus (Cryptothelia) consortus. The bulk of the new beetles, some of the Hymenoptera (the rest were described by Frederick Smith) and other insects in <mask>'s collection were described by Francis Walker who also compiled the

Unfortunately only the published part of <mask>'s correspondence with Westwood (the Secretary of the Entomological Society) survived, the manuscripts are apparently lost.<mask>'s Ceylon insect collection was apparently divided between the Belfast Museum (now in the National Museum of Ireland), the Entomological Society of London and the British Museum (the Entomological Society's collections are now incorporated in those of the latter institution). <mask>'s watercolour paintings of Ceylon butterflies are in the Ulster Museum, Belfast. <mask>, Layard and George Henry Kendrick Thwaites and later John Nietner (died 1874) contributed almost all that was known of the insect fauna

Work on Mollusca and Annelida

Part of Templeton's Mollusca collection was described as comprising several new and rare species hitherto undescribed.Amongst others are new species of each of these genera: Achatina, Helix, Neritina, Ampullaria, Valvata, Planorbis and Melania. <mask> sent back to the Belfast Museum specimens of the Ceylonese pearl mussel showing growth stages of the mussels from the famous pearl fisheries of Ceylon. He also described two species of land-slug (Vaginula maculata and Parfnacella tennenti) from Ceylon. It was <mask> who described the extraordinary giant earthworm Megascole caeruleus from Ceylon which is between 20 and 40 inches long and has a thickness of

Templeton also studied the vertebrates of the island, especially the fish, birds and monkeys. Amongst the birds were five endemic species new to science. These were described by Edward Blyth in the Calcutta Journal as Athene castanotus, the chestnut-winged hawk owl; Malacocercus rufescens, the red dung thrush; Dicrurus edoliformis, the kingcrow, Dicrurus leucopyygialis the Ceylon kingcrow, and Eulabes ptilogenes, Templeton's mynah.The monkeys were studiously appraised and some of the results communicated to the Zoological Society of London. These communications, one of the monkey Cercopithecus pileatus and the loris Loris gracilis and the other on a supposed new species Semnopithecus leucoprymnus cephalopterus which turned out to be identical with Bennet's Semnopithecus nestor, are <mask> only personal contribution to the literature on the vertebrates of Ceylon. His knowledge of the smaller mammals, birds, reptiles and fishes was instead incorporated in the work of others, notably <mask> Waterhouse and his coworker Edgar Leopold Layard who in the introduction to Notes on the Ornithology of Ceylon says "I have had

The Colts had obtained the pick used to select <mask> by trading tight end Dwayne Allen to the New England Patriots. Chuck

Paul Zeise of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette opined that it was one of the Steelers' most underrated moves, as <mask> could compete for right tackle as he "has good feet, he’s athletic ... and he definitely has size.... He has a chance to be an excellent tackle if he keeps working at it.... run blocking is what he clearly does well." He entered the 2020 season as the Steelers starting right tackle.He suffered a torn ACL in Week 1 and was placed on season-ending injured reserve on September 16, 2020.

texts:
<mask> (September 15, 1912 – May 28, 1995) was an American politician who was the 41st governor of Indiana and a member of the Democratic Party, serving from 1961 to 1965. His term as governor saw a major increase in statewide taxation, including the first state sales tax, and the passage of several important civil rights bills, making Indiana one of the most friendly states to ethnic and religious minorities at that time. His tax hikes led to a near-tax revolt in the state, and people began writing "Indiana—Land of Taxes" on their license plates, at entry points into the state, in stores, and other public places. The situation killed any chance he had seeking higher office and earned him the moniker "Sales Tax Matt". Despite numerous reforms and his popularity within the Democratic Party, he was defeated when he ran for governor again in 1972. After leaving office, he served as chairman of the Indiana Democratic Party, as a member of the Democratic National Committee from 1964 until 1968, and as a federal commissioner on the International Joint Commission from 1966 until 1970. Throughout his life, <mask> was known for his personal motto, "It doesn't cost you anything to be a gentleman."After his retirement in 1972, he returned to Indianapolis, where he remained until his death in 1995. Early life

Both of his parents were natives of Jackson County, Indiana and had only recently moved to Detroit where his father took a job as a secretary and legal counsel for an insurance company. He had three younger siblings, Mary, John and Margaret. At the outbreak of World War I, his father was hired as an industrial expediter by the federal government and began traveling often. <mask> and his mother moved to Brownstown, Indiana, where her parents lived. After the war ended, <mask>'s father joined them in Brownstown, where he became the president of a local bank.In 1926, the family moved again to Vincennes, where <mask>'s father took a new job as president of an investment firm. <mask>'s

 father had been active in local Democratic politics for many years, and from an early age, <mask> was also interested in politics. He attended public school in Vincennes and graduated from Lincoln High School in 1930. He enrolled in the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania, graduating in 1934. He enrolled in Indiana University School of Law the same year. While there, he coauthored an article with Law Professor (and future IU Dean) Frank Horack, describing Indiana's practice of enacting special legislation as a "twilight zone" of Indiana law. <mask> met Mary Virginia Homann while attending IU, and the couple began a relationship.After two years at IU, <mask> transferred to the University of Chicago Law School, where he graduated with a degree in law in 1937. The same year, he was married to Mary and the couple settled in Vincennes. Politics and World War II

In Vincennes, <mask> opened a law practice and purchased a new home. He and his wife had twin daughters, Kathryn and Janet, in 1942. <mask> became involved in politics and ran for a seat in the Indiana House of Representatives and won in the 1940 election. He was re-elected to his seat in 1942, but resigned after the first session of the General Assembly to enlist in the navy, as World War II broke out. <mask> saw little action during the war and spend most of it on patrol of the American coastline.In 1946, he was discharged from the navy and returned home to resume practicing law. In 1950, President Harry Truman appointed him to serve as U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of Indiana, a position he held until resigning in 1952 to return to his law practice. <mask> had determined not to reenter politics but in 1954 he changed his mind and ran for the Indiana Senate, winning the election. As the General Assembly was dominated by the Republican Party at that time, <mask> had very little impact during his time as senator. In 1956, his name was entered as a candidate for governorship at the State Democratic Convention, but he was narrowly defeated in the vote by Ralph Tucker, the mayor of Terre Haute. In 1957, he became the minority

Election
Using the power of his new position, <mask> was able to maneuver himself into being a candidate for governor again at the 1960 state convention.This time his popularity had risen to such a height that he easily overcame his opposition to secure the nomination. In the general election, he faced Lieutenant Governor Crawford F. Parker, the Republican nominee. The campaign focused primarily on the looming budget deficit and secondarily on the civil rights issues being debated nationally. Although his party lost Indiana in the presidential election, <mask> won a narrow victory at the polls, winning by about 23,000 votes out of 2.1 million cast. Tax increases

After taking office, <mask> was immediately confronted with the state's $18.2 million budget deficit. His predecessor, Harold Handley, had tackled the deficit with a combination of reforming the tax system, and an increase in the gasoline tax. The public, however, was not pleased with the tax increase and was a factor Handley's defeat for the United States Senate in 1958.Despite the previous public reaction, Welsh recommended an additional tax increase to cover the deficit. The Indiana General Assembly, however, was divided with Republican strongly controlling the House, and the Democrats with only a two-vote majority in the Senate. This created deadlock on most of Welsh's taxing measures. He was able to advocate the passage of the Property Tax Assessment Act of 1961 which improved the efficiency of the revenue department, gaining the government money in administrative savings, and reimposing a small state property tax; the state property taxes had only recently been repealed in the state. A second reform bill was passed creating the Division of Tax Review which had power to review and reassess property taxes statewide. The Division of Audit was also created, which for the first time which allowed the government to audit tax data and forcibly collect it and also begin cross-checking state tax returns with federal tax returns. Warrant officers were hired who, with the

 Republican lieutenant governor cast the break vote, passing the measure. The bill was largely unaltered from <mask>'s original proposal, and named one of the new bridges in <mask>'s honor, the Matthew E. Welsh Bridge. Welsh, the lieutenant governor, and party leaders all paid a heavy political price for passing the massive tax increase, primarily because of the sales tax which was almost universally opposed by the public. <mask>'s opponents labeled him "Sales Tax Matt" and a virtual statewide tax revolt ensued. Across the state the motto "Indiana—Land of Taxes" began to be displayed on car license plates, bumper stickers, placed on large billboards at entries into the state, in many businesses, and a number of other high-profile places.Governmental reorganization

Welsh had an easier time persuading Republicans to make a number of reforms to state agencies and departments. The new Department of Administration, placed under the control of the Indiana Secretary of State, was created to streamline many state agencies. The state highway department was compelled reorganized, by replacing the commission that ran it with an executive director who was required to be a civil engineer, and replacing its patronage position with a merit system of hiring. The Department of Mental Health was created to consolidate the management of the states eight mental health hospitals under a single board of trustees. The board was also given oversight in a number of other areas including education for the mentally disabled, and the state alcoholic treatment center. The Department of Corrections was also signification altered to focus on rehabilitating prisoners. A new juvenile prison was built as a key feature of the new Rehabilitation Policy.The state's first art commission was created by an executive order in 1964 and was charged with promoting the arts in Indiana. The consolidation of the state's education system, began in 1959, was accelerated and largely completed during <mask>'s term. He aggressively pursued the consolidation agenda at the recommendation of his education adviser. By the time he left office, he had reduced

 the number of public schools in Indiana from 966 to 466. <mask> was also concerned with the lack of accessibility to higher education in the state and urged for the creation of a commission to investigate the problem and make recommendations to improve the situation. The General Assembly obliged, and the commission was created and recommended creating a state scholarship program, expanding Purdue and Indiana University to include satellite campuses around the state and to construct several new vocational schools. <mask> endorsed the plan, which the legislature implemented during his last year in office.Civil rights

Throughout his term, Welsh was an outspoken advocate of civil rights for African Americans and other minorities. In 1960 he successfully advocated the passage of a Fair Employment Protection Act to ensure that minorities were not discriminated against in hiring and employment. Penalties were increased for offenders of the existing laws. <mask> issued an executive order throughout the state government ordering an end to any discrimination in hiring for executive positions and ordering an anti-discrimination clause be added into all state contracts. In 1963 a second law was passed creating the Indiana Civil Rights Commission and given the power to investigate allegations of discrimination, issue cease and desist order, arrest offenders, and issue fines. In June of the same year, Welsh issued an executive order requiring all state departments to use their licensing powers to prohibit discrimination by adding anti-discrimination clauses to their licensing agreements. In the 1964 Democratic presidential primary election, incumbent President Lyndon Johnson refused to enter any primary races to campaign on his own behalf because he already had enough delegates in the caucus nominating states to win the nomination.Indiana was among the states that held primary elections, and Johnson's challenger, the segregationist Governor of Alabama George C. Wallace, entered the Indiana primary to show that northerners also supported his segregationist platform. Although Johnson did not approach Welsh to take

 any action, <mask> feared it would hurt the state Democratic party should Wallace win the state primary—and he certainly would win because he was running unopposed. <mask> decided to personally run against Wallace only to deny him a win in Indiana, knowing Johnson had enough support in caucus states to win the nomination. <mask> stumped the state touting his civil rights credentials and denigrating Wallace. His slogan was "Clear the way for LBJ, vote Welsh the fifth of May." During the primary campaign, Welsh had taken part in a Civil War Centennial Tour where he visited the capitals of each of the southern states, except Alabama's, and returned the battle flags captured by Hoosier soldiers during the American Civil War in official ceremonies. Wallace refused to hold such a ceremony and Alabama's captured battle flags still remain on display in the Indiana World War Memorial.In the primary election, <mask> won a victory over Wallace, 376,023 to 172,646. Wallace also won two delegates when he won the northwestern First Congressional District of Gary, Indiana. However, at the national convention, the Hoosiers delegation refused to award the two votes to Wallace. They voted for Welsh on the first ballot; afterwards, <mask> directed his supporters to vote for Johnson. One of <mask>'s most effective long-term changes was his gradual attempt to change the state's position on accepting money from the federal government. Since 1947, Indiana had been under a law that preventing it from accepting any money from the federal government except in cases specifically allowed by the General Assembly. This law had been enacted following the Great Depression and the government's fear at that time of the domination it had come under after accepting major amounts of money from the federal government, and the strings that came attached to it.<mask> was able to have the law overturned, with little fanfare.

 term, <mask> left office in January 1965 and returned to his law practice in Vincennes. He remained active in the Democratic Party, and had been made a member of national committee in 1964, a position he held until 1968. In 1965, President Johnson appointed him the International Joint Commission that oversaw a range of issues affecting both Canada and the United States, he continued on the commission until 1970. During 1969 he also served on the Indiana Constitutional Revision Committee that authored a series of amendments reorganizing the state courts expanding the power of governors, and making several new constitutional bodies. In 1972, <mask> was nominated by his party to run for a second term as governor.The campaign was hard fought and focused much on Welsh's record as governor. His Republican opponent, Dr Otis R. Bowen, attacked him on the tax plan he had enacted, saying that it was a failure, and the state was still suffering from its effects. Welsh touted his experience and civil-rights support, but ultimately lost the election by a decisive margin. Welsh spent his final years in Vincennes, but died after seeking medical attention in Indianapolis on May 28, 1995, aged eighty-two. Throughout his life he often repeated his motto, "It doesn't cost you anything to be a gentleman," and many of his friends and acquaintances say he lived up to it. His remains were interred in Vincennes' Memorial Park Cemetery. Electoral history

 in our lifetime" and that "We are all Palestinians ... What happened to Palestinians can happen to everyone." He supports lawfare against Israel. <mask> has said of Palestinian acts of violence against Israel:"I do not see wild-eyed religious fanaticism as the reason for the attacks.I see instead a resilient people without other means of resistance, pushed to desperation by the increasing pressures of ethnic cleansing, while their cries for help are ignored. Is there a proud people anywhere that might not be driven to such measures to defend themselves?" Elsewhere, he has stated that he is opposed to suicide bombing. In a 2019 appearance on Iran's Press TV alongside his regular collaborator, Holocaust denier Kevin Barrett, Larudee argued that U.S. foreign policy is dictated by Israel and that officials "who are supposedly appointed by Trump are actually appointed by Tel Aviv, for the most part." On the Syrian Civil War, Larudee has said that NGOs such as Amnesty International and Physicians for Human Rights are in league with NATO's warmongers and exaggerate the Syrian Air Force's use of barrel bombs. Activism

In a CNN interview, he said that before visiting the families he and his colleagues had to ask the IDF forces at the camps for permission. "But their reaction was to simply fire at us". After the CNN interviewer noted that

 a report stated the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) soldiers had "fired at your feet," Larudee acknowledged that the IDF had not fired at their bodies. He claimed, however, that shots had bounced off the stone walls and caused "several head injuries" in his group.In a June 2002 interview, he admitted that it was "possible in some cases I was protecting the wrong people". Free Gaza Movement
<mask> is a co-founder of the Free Gaza Movement (FGM) (along with Greta Berlin, Mary Hughes Thompson, Sharyn Lock and Renee Bowyer), which was formed in fall 2006 to challenge the Israeli blockade of the Gaza Strip. Its first attempt to break the Israeli blockade took place in August 2008. FGM has asserted that its activities fall under the banner of "civil resistance" and "direct action" against Israel's "brutal siege" and its "collective punishment" of Gazans. FGM has conducted eight separate trips to Gaza, between August 2008 and July 2009. <mask> was one of the passengers on the Free Gaza Movement's first trip, on August 23–29, 2008. Fellow passengers included ISM co-founder Huwaida Arraf.The Free Gaza Movement was given funds by the Turkish IHH for its 2010 flotilla, which resulted in the deaths of nine Turkish activists and one American/Turkish activist on the MV Mavi Marmara during the Gaza flotilla raid. In 2008, Israel designated the IHH as a terror group, accusing it of funneling support to Hamas and other terrorist groups. A 2006 online blog report linked IHH to fundraising for jihadis headed to Bosnia, Chechnya, and Afghanistan. In a Seattle trial, IHH was described as playing a major role in the Al Qaeda Millennium bomb plot targeting Los Angeles International Airport. It has turned out that none of the accusations were verified, and IHH is one of the very few UN MGOs affiliated with the UN. That IHH was banned in Germany later turned out to be a mixup between the Turkish İnsan Hak ve Hürriyetleri and the banned German Internationale Humanitäre Hilfsorganisation e.V.. The

Gaza Freedom Flotilla
Larudee was a member of the U.S. delegation aboard the 2010 Gaza Freedom Flotilla, which was attacked by Israeli forces on May 31, 2010.<mask> was on board the ship Sfendoni when the raid took place. He later said that he and his collaborators "locked arms to prevent the Israelis from coming in but they used electric tasers, stun grenades, and batons and they smashed the windows of the wheelhouse and then they tied us. When it got light, they had removed all the handcuffs. I spoke to some of my Greek friends and got an OK to jump into water. So I made sure that everybody could see me, because I wanted lots of witnesses, and when the Israeli started coming closer to me, I jumped. My goal was to delay the Israelis and spoil their plans, and encourage the others on the ship to resist". Larudee jumped into the water, later explaining that "I chose to resist by jumping overboard from the Sfendoni soon after we were captured, far out at sea.I took the calculated risk that Israel would find it hard to explain its failure to rescue me, and that the act might disrupt their operations to at least some extent". After this, according to Larudee, the IDF subjected him to "multiple beatings in two days of captivity in Israel". He wrote that he "continued to protest by refusing to speak or walk, forcing my captors to carry me. Pain was used to force me to comply, and of course, when pain didn't work, they applied more pain, with the same result". In an interview he said that "I forced them to carry me everywhere. I wouldn't open my mouth for most of the time. They were very rough with me.They put my arm behind my back and twisted my joints. This was basically torture. I screamed, but I also told them that you can tear my arm out and it's not going to make me walk. So they ended up carrying me". All Israeli government officials and members of the military were

Although <mask> said he practiced nonviolence during this entire episode, he said that "it's not necessarily for everyone" and expressed his admiration for those on the Mavi Marmara, another boat in the flotilla, who resisted the IDF violently. He also maintained that all of the flotilla's participants were unarmed.Gene St. Onge, who took part in the 2010 flotilla, later said that in response to the IDF's orders, <mask> had "resisted at every point. If they told <mask> to sit, he'd stand. If they told him to stand, he'd sit". It was when soldiers started paying attention to another passenger, St. Onge continued, that Larudee jumped overboard. <mask> was arrested in and deported from Israel in 2006. <mask> was accused by Israeli authorities of being engaged in "anti-Israeli" activities that included meetings with Hamas a group accused by the United States of being a terrorism. Larudee had been photographed with Hamas leaders when he received an award after the Gaza flotillas.He was traveling this time under the false identity <mask> because he had been banned from the country before due to his association with Palestinian terrorist groups according to Lee Kaplan. Lee Kaplan from StoptheISM.com alerted the Israeli security before his trip. LaRudee tried to remain in Israel in a case that went to Israel's Supreme Court but <mask> claimed he was deported due to Kaplan's articles about him. "This is something small I can do to make life under occupation just a little more bearable for people, so I do it," he said. But when he disembarked from his plane, Israeli authorities put him in a holding cell. When they ordered him back onto the plane to be deported, he refused to go and instead contacted an Israeli leftist human-rights attorney. Larudee organized the 2011 Gaza Freedom Flotilla under the auspices of the Free Palestine Movement, but Greek authorities refused to let the ships leave port.According to Larudee, U.S.

Larudee is a co-founder of the Free Palestine Movement, which achieved official recognition by the United Nations in 2011. Eviction in Contra Costa County
On March 17, 2011, <mask> was lawfully evicted by the Contra Costa County Sheriffs Department. During the eviction, he was warned that he would be arrested if he refused to cooperate. He refused, and was carried to a transportation vehicle. Larudee later described this as "torture". Global March to Jerusalem
Larudee was one of the organizers of the Global March to Jerusalem.He and the other organizers, Feroze Mithiborwala and Ali Mallah, wrote at the Huffington Post in March 2012 that "Israel is justifiably concerned about being treated as an international pariah" because "Israel has, in effect, put all its eggs in the American basket. American power is what allows Israel to receive deferential treatment in most European countries....Without U.S. diplomatic intervention, advocacy and arm-twisting, it is doubtful that any country in the world would defend Israel's policies". They added that the Greek government had "humiliated itself by preventing a peaceful flotilla of boats from leaving its shores for Gaza in 2011, for the sake of relations with Israel". And they concluded that the Global March to Jerusalem was "merely the latest and possibly the largest and most diverse expression" of swelling worldwide anti-Israeli sentiment. Deportation from India
<mask> was taken into custody in December 2012 in Tirur in the Malappuram district of India, where he had spoken at a Student Islamic Organisation conference. Charged with "violating visa norms," he was issued a "quit India" notice, which required that he "leave India as early as possible". He was then blacklisted by police in Kerala, which means that he cannot enter India

Larudee is the treasurer of the Association for Investment in Popular Action Committees, an umbrella nonprofit for other nonprofit organizations formed in 2007 and the parent body of the Syria Solidarity Movement (SSM), which opposes "military conflict and imperialist interests" in Syria, and of which Larudee is a steering committee member. From 2007 to 2017, the Association received over $1.8 million in support from undisclosed donors. SSM was formed in 2013 to facilitate a North American speaking tour for Agnes Mariam de la Croix, a nun who argues that chemical attacks in Syria such as Ghouta in 2013, are perpetrated by rebels. In 2014, the SSM sponsored a delegation, including Larudee, to Syria to observe the 2014 elections, hosted by the International Union of Unified Ummah, an Iranian NGO. On the morning of the election, the delegation announced "The poll is about to demonstrate the real scale of public support President Assad is enjoying inside the country, heroically resisting foreign-sponsored aggression for more than three years." Larudee appeared on Syrian state television during the visit.Commenting in 2016 on the visit, <mask> said "It's easy for us to come off as apologists for Assad when we're working to correct the false information in the hostile Western media." In 2017, the Association paid U.S. Representative from Ohio Dennis Kucinich $20,000 to attend a conference of the pro-Assad European Centre for the Study of Extremism in London. The Association has been described as a pro-Assad group. Kucineh later returned the money after reports of the Association's support for Assad. At the time, <mask> said he did not “care that [Assad] is a dictator” and the Syria Solidarity Movement

In 2019 <mask> travelled to Syria to participate in the Third International Trade Union Forum, presided over by President Bashar al-Assad. In May 2021, he went with the Syria Solidarity Movement on a regime-sponsored tour, for the stated purpose "to witness the […] presidential election in Syria and to investigate on-the-ground conditions of Syrian life in the current period". The group concluded that "the re-election of President Bashar al-Assad, of the Arab Socialist Ba’ath Party and the National Progressive Front, is the legitimate, democratic expression of the Syrian people."

 left the Roosters two weeks before the end of the 2006 season. Cronulla-Sutherland Sharks
In 2007 <mask> took over from <mask> as head coach of the Cronulla-Sutherland Sharks with a two-year contract, which was then extended to the end of the 2011 playing season. Despite the Sharks making the preliminary finals in 2008, <mask>'s time with the club was marred by a horror year in 2009. Not only was the club in dire financial straits but the Cronulla Sharks club was also tarnished by media allegations about a 2002 group-sex incident involving former Sharks players, player Reni Maitua's dismissal after testing positive to drugs, removal of the captaincy from key player Paul Gallen, due to making racist remarks several unsavoury incidents involving now-disgraced CEO Tony Zappia (including his assault of a female staff member and involvement in an insurance-fraud fan donation scandal). On 19 July 2010 <mask> resigned as Cronulla-Sutherland coach six weeks before the end of the 2010 season.<mask> said that he decided to leave Cronulla after he felt that he no longer had the support of his players. <mask> went on to say "I just feel I can’t get that extra bit out of them at the moment, Talking to the players at halftime and after the game, I could probably sense with them that this was the only decision". <mask> leaving the club ended yet another tenure prematurely and at loggerheads with club executives, members and players, with Cronulla appointing Shane Flanagan as his replacement. Parramatta Eels
<mask> signed a lucrative three-year contract with the Parramatta Eels, beginning in 2013. This meant that <mask> had to stand down as the head coach of the New South Wales State of Origin team, as the state had put in a policy that the head coach would not have any relation to an NRL club. The Eels had in recent years been perennial underachievers, with <mask> set the unenviable task of

 resurrecting the team after the team finished last in 2012. However, in the round 4 match against the Roosters, <mask> suffered the worst defeat in his NRL coaching career, losing 50-0.In the aftermath of the game, <mask> said at the press conference "I can't say it won't happen again, it will and I hope to turn it around quickly but it won't, it is going to take a long time to turn it around, we have to keep building our roster because it is not up to the level of other rosters". In April 2013 <mask> was fined $10,000 for questioning a referee's impartiality following a loss to the Gold Coast. On 11 September 2013, <mask> announced that he was quitting the Parramatta Eels to join the Canberra Raiders as head coach on a three-year contract to continue his coaching career. Canberra Raiders
<mask> took up the head coach position of the Canberra Raiders on a three-year deal in 2014. Following Canberra's loss in round 10 of the 2014 NRL season, <mask> spoke to the media saying "When you get shit refereeing, sorry, when you get poor refereeing decisions that are just incorrect, purely incorrect, that frustrates you because it’s a tight competition and every game’s a tight game". <mask> was later fined $10,000 by the NRL for his post match comments. In 2016, <mask> coached Canberra to a second-placed finish at the end of the regular season.In week one of the finals, Canberra were upset in front of a sold-out home crowd losing to eventual premiers Cronulla 16-14. Canberra would defeat Penrith the following week to qualify for the club's first preliminary final in 19 years. Canberra went on to fall short of a grand final appearance losing to Melbourne 14-12. In July 2018 after a match against the Cronulla-Sutherland Sharks in which a refereeing mistake led to a try lost the raiders the game, <mask> demanded that the NRL overhaul the bunker system responsible to reviewing potential tries.

 2019 NRL season, <mask> guided Canberra to a 4th-place finish at the end of the 2019 regular season. Canberra would then go on to defeat Melbourne and South Sydney to qualify for their first grand final in 25 years. In the 2019 NRL Grand Final against the Sydney Roosters, Canberra lost the match 14-8 in controversial circumstances.During the second half of the game and with only 10 minutes remaining, Canberra were initially given a new six tackle set after referee Ben Cummins had ruled that the Sydney Roosters had touched the ball. Canberra player Jack Wighton would then be tackled with the ball. Cummins later ruled that it was not a repeat set and it was a handover to the Sydney Roosters. In the following minutes, Roosters player James Tedesco would score the match winning try. In the post match press conference, <mask> told the media "You all saw it. None of us here will be commenting on that tonight. It's not the time to talk about it".In the 2020 NRL season, <mask> guided Canberra to a fifth placed finish on the table as they qualified for the finals. Canberra would eventually reach the preliminary final before losing to Melbourne 30-10. In the post match press conference, <mask> walked out after answering only one question. In round 8 of the 2021 NRL season, Canberra were defeated by South Sydney 34-20 which included two tries that were disallowed against Canberra. In the post match press conference <mask> said "I'll look like a whinger, which I don't really give a shit about being labelled a whinger, but when you get a game out there where it's 8-1 in penalties, I just think it needs a discussion". Canberra would finish the 2021 NRL season in a disappointing 10th place on the table after the club were tipped to reach the finals and once again challenge for the premiership.

<mask> (born 15 February 1938) is a Chicago filmmaker, animator and designer. Janiak was born in Chicago, Illinois and attended Lane Technical College Prep High School where he collaborated with Wayne Boyer and Ronald Larson to create animated cartoon shorts. These high school films were recognized by the Chicago Tribune, Hollywood and the IIT Institute of Design. Janiak then attended the Institute of Design and learned under the influence of László Moholy-Nagy's principles of the "American Bauhaus". After school, Janiak began work in advertising, where he employed these principles of design, and the experimental practices he learned at Institute of Design in his industrial filmmaking. Janiak not only made advertising films, he also created documentaries, experimental films, animations, graphic design pieces, and worked as a professor at the Institute of Design from 1968 to 1980. Much of his work was inspired by his spiritual practices with the Vivekananda Vedanta Society in Chicago, which he was a member of beginning in 1965.Early years
<mask> was born on February 15, 1938 and grew up in both the southwest and northwest side of Chicago. When <mask> was six, his family moved to a northwest neighborhood of Chicago, close to the Indian Boundary Forest Preserve, the Che-Che-Pin-Qua Woods and the Des Plaines River. <mask> attended Lane Tech High School, where he would begin filmmaking. At Lane Tech High School, <mask> created cartoon animations with Wayne Boyer and Ronald Larson, which would catch the attention of the Chicago Tribune, and even Hollywood. The high school students found inspiration in nature, experimenting with stop motion photography in the nearby woods during their summers. They honed their camera

 skills, and then began the process of creating drawn animation. Their final project consisted of roughly 200,000 drawings.The students showed their animations at various theaters and galleries in the Chicago area; they were invited to Hollywood, where they met with Walt Disney; and Janiak received the Scholastic magazine tuition scholarship to attend the Institute of Design at the Illinois Institute of Technology. At the Institute of Design, <mask> was taught printmaking by Misch Kohn, a world renowned artist whose etching and prints were displayed at the Art Institute of Chicago, as well as in Paris, Stockholm and London. While at I.D., Janiak worked for Richard Kliedon Animation studio. Career

Commercial and studio work
Janiak worked for Richard Kliedon Animation from 1957–1959. He then began work for Mort and Millie Goldsholl of Morton Goldsholl Associates based out of Northfield, Illinois. At Goldsholl Associates, Janiak was at home with other I.D. graduates who also learned from the design principles of Laszlo Moholy-Nagy.Their common backgrounds contributed to a highly experimental design studio unlike many others in Chicago at the time, where the use of montage, collage, and light experimentation was encouraged. The studio created advertisements for companies such as Kimberly-Clark. <mask> collaborated on the industrial film Faces and Fortunes made for Kimberly-Clark Corporation. The film was intended to clarify the importance of a corporate identity and the importance of good marketing. It discusses the history of corporate identity and branding, drawing upon the use of family crests in the medieval period. This film incorporated many different methods, such as drawn animation, direct animation,

 collage, and stop-motion animation of objects. Faces and Fortunes won more awards than any other film previously produced by Morton Goldsholl Associates.Army
In 1962 Janiak was drafted into the United States Army, and served until 1964. While in the army, he continued his work in film. He worked as the director of an educational television station of the U.S. Army Signal Corps Signal School and Communications Research Center at Fort Monmouth, New Jersey. During his serving, he also created Adames Film (1963),  Glasshouse (1964), and Agamemnon in New York (1964). Glasshouse (1964)  is an experimental documentary of a terrarium, made by Janiak himself with color 16mm film. Agamemnon in New York (1964) produced with black and white 16mm film captures Janiak carrying out a conversation, but acting as both people, in a humorous portrait of work at Goldsholl Design & Film Associates. Teaching
In 1968 Janiak became a professor of design animation and experimental filmmaking at the Institute of Design, and helped to grow the school's animation department.The animation program did grow at I.D., and in 1978 there were 30 animation majors earning degrees. Peter Gorner interviewed <mask> for his article "Tempo A" in the Chicago Tribune, and discusses the tedious nature, and lengthy process that animation requires. One of <mask>'s students worked for four years on only a 30 minute long animation. Notable films
Disintegration Line #1  was made in 1960 using black and white 16mm film, and is a direct animation depicting lines and abstract shapes resembling the infinitesimal nuclei which move and flicker across the screen. The film is silent, but the movement of the shapes is meant to resemble Tanmatra, a moving field of

 aggregates of atoms and cosmic motion called the dance of Shiva. Adams Film (1963)  was a visual collage experiment that combines live action footage of a Chicago Earth Day parade and domestic scenes of the <mask> family with abstract images and textures drawn directly on 16mm film. The soundtrack consists of assorted tape loops.Life and Film (1965)  is an experimental film that functions as a "picture postcard", depicting the experience of young filmmakers walking along a path in the Michigan sand dunes. Disintegration Line #2  (1970) was created using 16mm film that was randomly animated to create sporadic movements of shapes and colors in subtle visual sequences in discernible steps of intensity. The film is set to Gamelan, music traditional to the Vivekananda Vedanta Society. Awards

<mask> (born 4 June 1956) is an English professional darts player who plays in World Darts Federation (WDF) events. Nicknamed "Wolfie", he is a three-time BDO World Champion and three-time World Masters champion. He represents Cambridgeshire at county darts level and was the captain of England from 1993 to 2013, the longest any player has held that role. From his debut in 1994, <mask> made a record 25 consecutive World Championship appearances, before failing to qualify for the first time in 2019. <mask> was diagnosed with prostate cancer in April 2016, but by the end of the year he was given the all-clear. As well as playing, he also acts as a regular pundit and commentator for televised coverage of BDO events. Darts career
<mask> was born in Sutton, Surrey and started his darts career in pubs.He still plays pub darts, currently playing for Deeping Rugby Club in Market Deeping, Lincolnshire. After being made redundant by Lloyds Bank, he turned professional in 1992. Following the formation of the World Darts Council in 1993, all the players that left the British Darts Organisation were banned from playing county darts, leaving England searching for a new team and a new captain. <mask> took over the role in 1993 and remained captain until March 2013, becoming the longest reigning England captain ever. <mask> has won many BDO Open events and twice won the WDF World Cup singles, but often missed-out on winning the biggest tournaments. He was sometimes the victim of great comebacks and also great collapses himself when he found himself in winning positions. In particular, his 5–4 defeat to Chris Mason in the 1999 World Championship quarter-finals, having led 4–1 and seen nine match-darts pass him by in the match, is always mentioned among the greatest matches in the history of the event.He also lost in the deciding set at the semi-final stage in both 1995 and 2002.

 Championship, <mask> was runner-up on three occasions. He was beaten 6–4 in the 2004 Bavaria World Darts Trophy final by Raymond van Barneveld and lost the 2006 Bavaria World Darts Trophy final to Phil Taylor 7–2. He also lost to 17-year-old Dutch youngster Michael van Gerwen 7–5 in the 2006 Winmau World Masters final, having led 5–2 and despite averaging 107 for the first nine darts of each leg. Having made his Lakeside debut in 1994 at the age of 37, <mask> failed to progress beyond the semi finals of the World Championship until 2005 when he reached the final at the 12th attempt. He beat Davy Richardson 3–2, John Henderson 3–2, Ted Hankey 5–3 and Simon Whitlock 5–0 before losing 6–2 against van Barneveld in the final. 2007
<mask> reached his second world final in 2007.He was number one seed for the second time in his career and put out Tony O'Shea, Co Stompé, Ted Hankey and Mervyn King in his run to the final where he faced qualifier Phil Nixon. The two oldest players in the tournament (they were both 50 years old) reached the final. <mask> stormed into a 6–0 lead, before Nixon produced an incredible comeback to level the match. Just when it looked like <mask> was heading for another dramatic defeat, having already missed four match darts, he went on to win all three legs in the final set to take the match 7–6 and finally claim the world title that he said he had been chasing for 14 years. 2008
In the draw for the 2008 BDO World Championships, <mask> was again paired with Nixon in the first round. In the match, <mask> beat Nixon 3–0. After the game, <mask> was clearly emotional in an interview following his victory, citing the memories of the 2007 final as the reason (the first time he had won comfortably).In the second round he came up against <mask>.
