The third son of The Hon was born on November 22, 1901 in England. The 1st Baron Hunsdon of Hunsdon was created by <mask>. He graduated from Trinity College, Cambridge. He moved to Southern Rhodesia in the 1920's to buy a farm. He helped found the National Farmers Union. He was elected to the Legislative Assembly in 1948 as a United Party member and served one term before standing down in 1954.The Governor of Southern Rhodesia was appointed by Queen Elizabeth II as a Knight Commander of the Order of St Michael and St George in 1960. The Unilateral Declaration of Independence (UDI) by the Rhodesian Front government placed <mask> in a very difficult position. He was a close friend of Ian Smith, but he was also loyal to his office as the Queen's viceroy. The legality of the UDI rested with the Crown, not with Smith and his government, as was decided by <mask>. By the time Smith and the deputy prime minister called on the governor, he had been told to dismiss Smith and his entire cabinet. The order was complied with without hesitation. He said that Smith and his government had committed treason by issuing the UDI.Smith and his ministers ignored the dismissal because he no longer had the power to sack them. Several high-ranking officers of the Rhodesian military went to Governor <mask> earlier in the day, made a statement of loyalty to him, and asked him to issue a warrant so that they could arrest Smith and Dupont. The bulk of the officer corps, as well as the rank and file of the Rhodesian military, were solidly behind Smith's government and that would lead to a coup d'état. Despite the UDI, he would remain in Government House in Salisbury as the sole legal representative of Queen Elizabeth II. With few exceptions, the international community continued to recognize him as the Queen's legitimate representative in the area, and thus, the only lawful authority in what London maintained was still the colony of Southern Rhodesia. Smith said that

The Rhodesian government cut off his phone, electricity and water after four years of harassment, making him and his wife virtually prisoners in Government House.It took away his ceremonial guard and official cars, and sent him bills for the rent of Government House, which he refused to pay. His supporters set up a Governor's Fund to pay for the upkeep of the building, and with the assistance of a small staff, he remained defiant. The Governor's Lodge in the Salisbury suburb of Highlands was the location for the official reception held by Dupont and his wife. Southern Rhodesia was part of the Federation of Rhodesia and Nyasaland. Government House was the residence of the Governor-General of the Federation. In 1967, on the second anniversary of UDI, <mask> declared that his visitors' book would be open to all who wanted to show their loyalty to The Queen, while Dupont announced that the visitors' book at his office would be open to all. Smith's government held a referendum in 1969 and made Rhodesia a republic.He lived on his farm the rest of his life. He was involved in a conflict with the government of Ian Smith because he supported the cause of African nationalism. He was made a Knight Grand Cross of the Royal Victorian Order by Queen Elizabeth II. He took up Zimbabwean citizenship after independence. He lived on his farm until 1983, when he moved to Zimbabwe. His funeral was held at the Cathedral of St Mary and All Saints in Harare. The memorial to <mask> was unveiled in St Paul's Cathedral in 2004.Marriage took place on 17 January 1934. They had five sons together. In 1960, Molly was appointed as a Commander of the Order of St John of Jerusalem and in 1969 as a Dame Commander of the Order of the British Empire.

The American Red Cross used her posters in its fund-raising campaigns. She entertained the troops in France in 1918. During her time at the Western Front, McMein said she wouldn't be frightened by anything. It is impossible to imagine the terror of air raids. They are heralded by the sound of sirens and the ringing of church bells and then suddenly come the bombs, falling no one knows where. The noise they made was worse than the battles.McMein made portraits of some of the soldiers, drew cartoons, and colored the Indian head insignia that was used by the 93rd Bomb Squadron to indicate the number of German planes that a given plane shot down by drawing a German black cross over one of the bear teeth.

Like the Betty Crocker image, <mask> was a kind of American demigoddess: the most courted of commercial artists, hostess in her New York studio to all of the 'Algonquin wits'. James Gray is the author of Business Without Boundary: The Story of General Mills. McMein and Guggenheim created a comic strip called "Deathless Deer" in 1943.The strip starred an Egyptian princess who wakes up in New York City.

He was forced to emigrate because of this. <mask> protested against commercialism in art, against the dominance of ideas of market over ideas of spirit, against the crushing of religious art by public indifference, and against the loss of Judeo-Christian values. "In search of these values, I turn to the Old Masters from the Mediterranean region, where at the very beginning of Western Civilization, the art of pictorial image was born, art in which both the Divine Spirit and the Human Being served as the measure for all things." <mask>'s cry was "loud and bitter".<mask>'s last five years were spent in voluntary seclusion.

He came to prominence in the 1930s as a leader of the Confessing Church, which was seen as a movement within German Protestantism that arose during the Nazi years in opposition to government-sponsored efforts to unify all Protestant churches into a single pro. <mask> was born in Elberfeld, a town in the Ruhr region which had emerged during the nineteenth century as a major centre for the textiles industry, and which has subsequently been subsumed into Wuppertal. His father was a partner in the Elbersfeld-based firm "H. E. Schniewind" and worked in the silk business. His grandfather was a partner in the family firm and a member of the local business community. His mother was a daughter of a banker originally from Friedrich. The spirit of religious piety within the family shaped his childhood.He studied Lutheran Theology at Bonn, Halle, Berlin and Marburg between 1901 and 1906 after attending the "grammar school" in Elberfeld. His teachers were Paul Feine, Karl Heim, and Friedrich Loofs. According to one major source, he was the most significant of the students of Martin Khler. He received his Licentiate at Halle in 1910 for his work on the writings and preaching of Paul the Apostle. He taught New Testament studies at Halle until 1914. He received a degree in habilitation for his work on parallel pericopes. <mask> became a volunteer field chaplain during the First World War, which interrupted his academic progress.He received the Iron Cross 2nd Class.

He moved again two years later, this time to the University of Knigsberg, where he was in regular contact with a younger generation of notable theologians such as Gnther Bornkamm, Hans Iwand and Martin Noth. After several years of politics becoming more polarised and then gridlocked, the Nazis took power in 1933. The new government quickly turned Germany into a one-party dictatorship. In 1933 leading protestant churchmen were persuaded to draft a new constitution for the "German Evangelical Church", which was part of a government plan for a state controlled protestant church. The idea was not one that sat comfortably with German tradition, and many protestant theologians responded by creating the Confessing Church.The Bahnauer Fraternity was involved. On behalf of the Confessing Church, the Theology faculty at Knigsberg became a power house for theological training. <mask> joined the Pfarrernotbund. <mask> was kicked out of the University of Knigsberg in 1935 because of his activities with the Confessing Church. He made a public attack on the East Prussian Gauleiter. He was sent to the Confessing Church again. Relations between the Confessing church and the more mainstream regional protestant churches had broken down.The Confessing Church banned professors from setting exams for theology students in 1935. Schniewind refused to set exams for the regional churches because of his support for the Confessing Church. After a few months, he was sent away because of his refusal to comply with the requirements of the authorities. He was invited to return to Halle. He was still committed to the Confessing Church. He was a leader of the student religious community. The authorities launched a criminal investigation into Schniewind's involvement with the Confessing Church after he was removed from his university post.He had to take an 80% salary cut. A recent investigation of personnel records at the University of Halle has shown that Schniewind's professorship was quietly restored in some form

The western two thirds of Germany were divided into zones of military occupation after the war ended. The Soviet occupation zone included Halle.The area where he was born and lived as a young man became part of the British occupation zone. Schniewind turned down university appointments from Mnster, Mainz and Berlin. When he was restored to a full professorship at the University of Halle, it became a matter of public record. As a lecturer at the university and church provost in the Halle-Merseburg region he played a decisive role in a revival of public Christian awareness and the life of the church in Halle. <mask> was 65 years old. The most important student of Martin Khler was Theology Schniewind. He was influenced by many people.He believed bible theology to be the Word of God. He stood apart from the liberals in that respect. Schniewind's programme of "spiritual renewal" created a happy unity out of the frequently problematic relationship between biblical belief and historical-critical exegesis. His first interest was in the New Testament and his pastoral duties. Some people write books. I have to be there for my students. Schniewind was able to emphasize the "signs of the times" because of the value of religious scholarship and form criticism.He applied a Pauline interpretation of National Socialism. He would have supported the judgement that Protestantism without the Confessing Church would be a denial of the truth. <mask> had a huge influence on his students. He sought to combine subjective religious experience with the objectivity of biblical witness.

He met and studied with the founder of Dait-ry Aiki-jjutsu at Hokkaid, where he was the head of a pioneer settlement. After leaving Hokkaido in 1919, <mask> joined the moto-ky movement, a Shinto sect, and opened his first dojo. The head of the moto-ky group, Onisaburo Deguchi, was captured by Chinese troops and returned to Japan in 1924. He stated that a golden spirit sprang up from the ground and changed his body into a golden one.His martial arts skill appeared to have increased after this experience. The Aikikai Hombu Dojo was established in Tokyo by <mask>. He was well-known in martial arts circles and taught at several military academies in Japan. After World War II, the Hombu dojo was temporarily closed, but <mask> retired to Iwama and continued his training there. He worked to promote aikido throughout Japan and abroad after the war ended.

The Shinto priest Tasaburo Nasu introduced <mask> to the religion and influenced his early education. At the age of six, <mask> was sent to study at the Jizderu Temple, but had little interest in Confucian education. <mask> found it interesting that his schoolmaster was also a priest of Shingon Buddhism, and that he taught the young <mask> some of the chants and rituals of the sect. His interest in Buddhism was so great that his mother wanted to enroll him in the priesthood, but his father wouldn't allow it. <mask> left formal education in his early teens to enroll at a private academy to study accountancy. After graduating from the academy, he worked at a local tax office for a few months, but the job did not suit him and he left for Tokyo, funded by his father.He returned to Tanabe less than a year after suffering a bout of beri-beri because he was unhappy with life in the capital. He married his childhood friend Hatsu Itokawa. <mask> was called up for military service in 1903. The initial physical examination was shorter than the regulation. To overcome this, he stretched his spine by attaching heavy weights to his legs and suspending himself from tree branches; when he re-took the physical exam, he had increased his height by half-inch to pass. He was promoted to sergeant after serving on the front lines of the war.

He briefly attended a school teaching Shinkage-ry while he was in Tokyo. His training in Got-ha Yagy-ryu under Masakatsu Nakai started in 1903 and continued until 1908, though it was sporadic due to his military service. In 1901 he received some instruction from Tozawa Tokusaburin in Tenjin Shin'y-ry jujutsu and in 1911 he studied with Kiyoichi Takagi in Tanabe. After his return from the war, he received a certificate of enlightenment from his childhood teacher.The prefecture of Hokkaid, Japan's northernmost island, offered various grants and incentives for mainland Japanese groups to relocate there in the early 20th century. The Japanese were mostly occupied by the Ainu in Hokkaid. In 1910, <mask> traveled to Hokkaid with Denzaburo Kurahashi, who had lived on the northern island before. He wanted to find a propitious location for a new settlement, and he found it at the site at Shirataki. <mask> got lost in snowstorms several times and nearly drowned in a river, but he was still enthusiastic about the project and began recruiting families to join him. The group founded the village of Yubetsu in August, 1912, as a result of his leadership of the Kish Settlement Group. The project was funded by Ueshiba's father and his brothers-in-law.Noriaki was a member of the settlement group. Poor soil conditions and bad weather led to crop failures during the first three years of the project, but the group still managed to cultivate mint and farm livestock. The timber industry provided a boost to the settlement's economy and by 1918 there were over

Their first son, Takemori, was born in the summer of 1918.The young <mask> met the founder of Dait-ry Aiki-jjutsu at the Hisada Inn. Despite being on an important mission for his village, <mask> abandoned his journey to spend the next month studying with Takeda because he was so impressed with the martial artist. He invited his new teacher to be a permanent house guest after he requested formal instruction and began studying the style of jjutsu. He received a teaching license for the system from Takeda in 1922. He received a Yagy Shinkage-ry sword transmission scroll. <mask> became a representative of Dait-ry, toured with Takeda as a teaching assistant, and taught the system to others. <mask> and Takeda had a complicated relationship.<mask> was an extremely dedicated student, dutifully attending to his teacher's needs and showing great respect. <mask>'s own students recorded the need to address what they referred to as "the Takeda problem", as Takeda overshadowed him throughout his martial arts career. In 1919, <mask> found out that his father was not expected to survive. <mask> left most of his possessions to Takeda in order to visit his ailing parent in Tanabe. He made a detour to visit Onisaburo Deguchi, the spiritual leader of the moto-ky religion, as his nephew Noriaki had already joined the religion and may have recommended it to his uncle. Deguchi told <mask> that there was nothing to worry about with his father. <mask> found out

After a few months, <mask> decided to become a full-time student of moto-ky. He purchased enough rice to feed himself and his family for several years after moving his family to the moto compound. The first of several dojos that <mask> was to lead was constructed on the centre's grounds, after Deguchi asked <mask> to become the group's martial arts instructor. <mask> taught Takeda's Dait-ry in another prefecture. His second son, Kuniharu, died from illness in 1920, along with his three-year-old brother Takemori. Although he was not a follower of moto and did not get along with Deguchi, Takeda was able to provide instruction to <mask>.At the request of his teacher, <mask> continued to teach his martial art under the name "Dait-ry Aiki-jjutsu". Many moto followers were sent to study at the dojo after Deguchi encouraged <mask> to create his own style of martial arts.

His association with the extreme right-wing is understandable when one considers that his view of world peace was that of a benevolent dictatorship by the Emperor of Japan.In 1921, the Japanese authorities raided the compound and arrested Deguchi on charges of lse-majesté. After <mask>'s dojo was undamaged, he worked closely with Deguchi to reconstruct the group's centre, becoming heavily involved in farming work and serving as the group's "Caretaker of Forms", a role which placed him in charge of overseeing. His son was born in the summer of 1921. In 1924, Deguchi led a small group of moto-ky disciples, including <mask>, on a journey to Mongolia at the invitation of retired naval captain Yutaro Yano and his associates within the Black Dragon Society. To establish a new religious kingdom in Mongolia, Deguchi distributed propaganda suggesting that he was the reincarnation of Genghis Khan. While Lu and his men were executed by firing squad in China, the Japanese group were released into the custody of the Japanese consul. Deguchi was imprisoned in Japan for breaking the terms of his bail.<mask> was given a Chinese name, Wang Shou-gao, which was rendered in Japanese and he continued to use it for the rest of his life. <mask> retreated to the mountains or performed misogi in the Nachi Falls after returning to Ayabe. His fame began to spread when he became a martial artist. Some of his students became his students after they were defeated by him.

After a couple of weeks, <mask> took issue with several government officials who voiced concerns about his connections to Deguchi; he canceled the training and returned to Ayabe. <mask> was invited to visit Tokyo again.While living in the capital, <mask> was stricken with a serious illness. <mask> was told to return to Ayabe by Deguchi, who was concerned for his health. After <mask> was questioned by the police following his meeting with Deguchi, the authorities kept him under close watch. <mask> went back to Ayabe because he was angry with the treatment he received. After six months with Deguchi's approval, he and his family moved to Tokyo. This move allowed <mask> to teach politicians, high-ranking military personnel, and members of the Imperial household; suddenly he was no longer an obscure provincial martial artist, but a sensei to some of Japan's most important citizens. The <mask> family moved to the Shirokane district in 1927.The Ueshibas moved to larger premises, first in Mita district, then in Takanawa, and finally to a purpose-built hall in Shinjuku, because the building was too small to house the growing number of aikido students. The Aikikai Hombu Dojo was eventually named after this location. Kan Jigor, the founder of judo, visited Ueshiba when he rented a property nearby. <mask> was invited to teach at a number of military institutions due to his close personal relationships with key figures in the military, among them Sadao Araki, the Japanese Minister of War. He accepted an invitation from Sankichi to be the martial arts instructor at the Imperial Japanese Naval Academy, and also taught at the Nakano Spy School, although aikido was later judged to be too

He was the principal martial arts instructor at Kenkoku University when Manchuria was occupied by the Japanese. He defeated the sumo wrestler Tenry Sabur during a demonstration. The "Second moto Incident" in 1935 saw the destruction of the Ayabe compound and the imprisonment of most of the group's leaders. Although he had relocated to Tokyo, <mask> still had links with the moto-ky group and was expected to be arrested as one of its senior members. He had a good relationship with the local police commissioner and the chief of police, both of whom had been his students.

He was born into a farming family and spent much of his life cultivating the land, from his settlement days in Hokkaid to his work in Ayabe trying to make the compound self-sufficient. Farming and martial arts were both physically demanding and required single-minded dedication. Under the government's restrictions, his farming activities provided a useful cover for martial arts training, as well as providing food for <mask>, his students and other local families at a time when food shortages were commonplace.

It promotes spiritual and social development by protecting the opponent. The basic techniques of aikido are derived from the Dait-ry system. The Dait-ry Aiki-jjutsu system was taught by <mask> from the 1920s to the mid-1930s.The future highest grade earner in Dait-ry, Takuma Hisa, was trained by <mask> before Takeda took charge of his training. The early form of training under Ueshiba was different from later forms. Increased use of strikes to vital points, a larger curriculum, and a greater use of weapons were some of the things it had. The schools of aikido were developed by <mask>'s students during the pre-war period. These students included the founder of Shodokan Aikido, Noriaki Inoue, the founder of Shin'ei Taid, Minoru Mochizuki, and the founder of Yoseikan Budo. Many of these styles are considered pre-war

His first experience occurred in 1940 when he was involved in the ritual purification process of misogi. During the worst fighting of World War II, <mask> had a vision of the "great spirit of peace". <mask> began to change his art after these events. The differing names with which he referred to his system are reflected in the changes. In 1942, when <mask>'s group joined the Dai Nippon Butoku Kai, the martial art that <mask> developed finally came to be known as aikido. As <mask> grew older, more skilled, and more spiritual, his art became softer and more gentle.More focus was given to the control of ki as martial techniques became less important. The emphasis in his own expression of the art was on using the opponent's movement in order to throw thebreath throws. <mask> regularly practiced cold water misogi, as well as other spiritual and religious rites, and viewed his studies of aikido as part of his spiritual training. Many of the students that <mask> trained later became famous teachers and developed their own styles of aikido. Some of them were live-in students. <mask> placed many demands on his uchi-deshi, expecting them to attend him at all times, act as training partners, arrange his travel plans, massage and bathe him, and assist with household chores.
