<mask>. (1791–1870) was the captain of the whalers Essex and Two Brothers, both of which sank. <mask>'s life, including his encounter with the sperm whale that sank Essex, served as inspiration for Captain Ahab, the whale-obsessed character in Herman Melville's Moby-Dick. Life and work

<mask> was born in Nantucket, Massachusetts, the son of Tamar (Bunker) and <mask>, a ship's captain, at a time when the principal industry there was hunting sperm whales to harvest the oil contained in their blubber and spermaceti. By the time he was 23 he had served on the Essex for four years in the capacities of second mate and first mate from 1815–1819. In 1819, <mask> was appointed captain of Essex by the owners, Gideon Folger and Sons, and prepared to set sail for the Pacific Ocean in August. Other members of the 21-man crew included Owen Chase as first mate, Matthew Joy as second mate, and six other Nantucket men. Those included <mask>'s seventeen-year-old cousin Owen Coffin with whose care and protection Pollard had been entrusted by his aunt, Nancy Bunker Coffin.To fill in the crew, others had to be recruited from Cape Cod and Boston; these were inexperienced seamen and were known as "green hands" by the Nantucketers. Four days after leaving Nantucket the ship was struck by a sudden storm and suffered a knockdown, having been rolled almost ninety degrees onto her side. Two of the ship’s whaleboats were lost and another was damaged. This mishap was caused in part by miscalculations on the part of <mask> and his officers, and in part by the inexperience of the crew. <mask> declared the damage was so extensive that they should return to Nantucket for repairs, but Chase and Joy persuaded him to go forward to the Azores and hope to replace the whaleboats there. After a difficult passage around Cape Horn, the Essex arrived in the Pacific Ocean in January 1820. On 20 November 1820, in a remote area of the ocean, some  west of the Galapagos Islands, the Essex was struck twice by a huge sperm whale, estimated to be  in length.With only three shipkeepers and the crew of Chase's whaleboat on board to repair their damaged vessel, the Essex began taking on water following the second collision with the whale. The crew abandoned the sinking vessel, taking the navigational equipment and <mask>'s and Chase's sea chests with them. Meanwhile, <mask> and Joy were hunting smaller whales near the ship, and on their return found the Essex had capsized. The crew chopped off the masts (a necessary move that would enable the ship to stay upright for a longer time) and outfitted the whaleboats with sails and masts using the Essex's spars and sails. They also hastened to retrieve what provisions they could and divided them equally so that each whaleboat had 200 pounds of hardtack, 65 gallons of freshwater, and two Galapagos tortoises. The crew was divided into three whaleboats commanded by <mask>, Chase, and Joy and set sail with provisions estimated to last them 60 days. <mask>, Chase, and Joy set up a council to decide which direction to sail in.The closest islands were the Marquesas Islands, about  west of their position but in those days the inhabitants there were believed to practice cannibalism. <mask> suggested sailing to the Society Islands, which were further away but presumed to be safer. However, on the grounds that very little was actually known about these islands, Chase and Joy disagreed, proposing instead to sail south far enough to pick up a band of variable breezes that would take them to South America. Once again, Captain <mask> reluctantly yielded to their arguments. On 20 December, near starvation, the crews of the three whaleboats reached what they believed to be Ducie Island, but was actually Henderson Island. After seven days, they exhausted the island's meager supply of food and decided that the island could not sustain them and they reluctantly set sail again. Three of the men opted to remain on the island and were eventually rescued by the trading vessel Surry.Sailing east towards South America, <mask> and Chase had seen Matthew Joy's health decline. He was transferred to <mask>'s boat and shortly thereafter died. Obed Hendricks was given command of Joy's boat, and the three boats sailed on until during a gale one night Chase's boat became separated from the other two. By 20 January 1821 a crew member, Lawson Thomas, died just as the boats of <mask> and Hendricks had come to the end of their provisions. It was at this point that to survive their ordeal the men resorted to cannibalism. As other crew members died their bodies were eaten in turn until only four men were left alive on <mask>'s boat. One of them, Charles Ramsdell proposed that lots should be drawn to determine who should be killed so that the rest might survive.<mask> at first resisted this suggestion but then gave in to the majority. The lot fell to his cousin Owen Coffin and lots were drawn again to determine who would be Coffin's executioner. Ramsdell drew the black spot and Coffin was shot and his remains eaten. After the death of Barzillai Ray some days later, <mask> and Ramsdell sailed on and were rescued on 23 February by the whaleship Dauphin and taken to Valparaíso. There they were reunited with the survivors of Chase's boat, Chase himself, Benjamin Lawrence and Thomas Nickerson, cabin boy of the Essex, who had been rescued by the British merchant ship Indian. Upon his return to Nantucket on 5 August aboard the whaleship Two Brothers, <mask> had to face Nancy Bunker Coffin, who was distraught at the idea that <mask> was alive as a consequence of her son's death. <mask> was given command of the whaleship Two Brothers that had brought him home, and this voyage also ended in disaster when the ship ran into rocks off French Frigate Shoals and sank.This ended <mask>'s whaling career. He made a single voyage in a merchant vessel and then spent the rest of his life as a night watchman on Nantucket. Herman Melville is quoted by the Nantucket Historical Association as having said of <mask>, "To the islanders he was a nobody. To me, the most impressive man, tho' wholly unassuming, even humble – that I ever encountered." In popular culture
First Mate Chase and a ghost writer wrote an account of the ordeal entitled Narrative of the Most Extraordinary and Distressing Shipwreck of the Whale-Ship Essex. This was published soon after the return of the survivors, and was an inspiration for the Herman Melville classic, Moby-Dick (1851). Much later, Cabin boy Nickerson wrote his own account of the voyage The Loss of the Ship Essex Sunk by a Whale and the Ordeal of the Crew in Open Boats.His manuscript was lost for nearly a century, but was discovered, authenticated and published in 1984. An account of the ordeal, using both Chase and Nickerson's works, was written by Nathaniel Philbrick in the 2000 non-fiction book, In the Heart of the Sea: The Tragedy of the Whaleship Essex. The source material for Moby Dick found itself an inspiration for movie adaptations in the mid-2010s as two of them were released in quick succession, and in which <mask> himself became portrayed. In 2013, the television movie The Whale was broadcast on BBC One on 22 December, wherein an elderly Thomas Nickerson recounted the events of Essex. <mask> was played by Adam Rayner. In 2015, a film, In The Heart of the Sea, directed by Academy Award Winner Ron Howard, was released on 11 December, and in which <mask> was portrayed by Benjamin Walker. A dramatized documentary titled Revenge of the Whale, was produced and broadcast on 7 September 2001 by NBC.The <mask> character was voiced by actor Jordan Gelber. References

Early career
Mackie began his career at non-league Leatherhead, joining Wimbledon as a trainee in 2003, before moving to Exeter City in August 2005. Following a brief loan spell at Sutton United in his first season, Mackie went on to become an established first-team player, scoring more than 20 goals in all competitions, from nearly 100 appearances, thus alerting other clubs of his potential.Plymouth Argyle
After handing in a transfer request, <mask> signed for Plymouth Argyle, who had fought off competition from Bristol City, Norwich City, Bristol Rovers and Cheltenham Town, for an initial fee of £145,000. In his first appearance for Plymouth Argyle on 12 February 2008, coming on as a substitute against Barnsley, <mask> scored within eleven seconds of his arrival on the pitch, thus breaking the record held by Tony Witter for the fastest goal scored for Plymouth Argyle on a debut. He would go on to score a second in that game. He was featured 13 more times that season, mainly as a substitute, scoring his third goal for the club against Preston North End on 19 April 2008. <mask> established himself as a first-team player during the 2008–09 season, making 45 appearances in all competitions, with the highlight being a 25-yard strike against Reading at Home Park. Having started life with the Pilgrims primarily as an impact substitute, <mask> subsequently became a regular name in the club's starting line-up. He played 44 times during the 2009–10 season, scoring a total of eight goals, although this was not enough to keep Plymouth in the second tier of English football.Queens Park Rangers

2010–11 season
In May 2010, <mask> signed a four–year contract with Queens Park Rangers for an undisclosed fee. Signed by Neil Warnock in what would be a Championship-winning season, he was mainly employed in a right wing or midfield position in Warnock's new 4–2–3–1 formation. <mask> got off to a good start at QPR, scoring on his debut in a 4–0 win over Barnsley. By mid-September <mask> had put himself top of the Championship goalscorers list with eight goals coming in his first seven league games, scoring doubles against Ipswich Town and Leicester City. He failed to score for 13 matches until netting the first in a 4–0 win over Swansea City on Boxing Day 2010. On 8 January, during an FA Cup tie against Blackburn Rovers, <mask> sustained a double tibia and fibula break during a collision with Rovers player Gael Givet. The injury kept the player out for seven months until he returned to training in September 2011.Although on the sidelines for the second half of the season, he had still participated enough to be awarded a Championship winner's medal as the team earned promotion to the Premier League for the first time in 15 years. 2011–12 season
<mask> returned to QPR's first team with a substitute appearance in the October 2011 match at Fulham and then started his first Premier League match at home to Blackburn Rovers two weeks later. <mask> scored his first Premier League goal in a 3–2 home defeat to Sunderland. His return to the side saw him feature regularly under Neil Warnock until the manager was replaced in January 2012 by Mark Hughes. Under Hughes, <mask> continued to occupy a wide-midfield berth and featured in the victory against Wigan Athletic and the subsequent draw with Aston Villa. Replaced by Adel Taarabt (who returned from the 2012 Africa Cup of Nations) for the game against Wolves which ended in defeat, he came off the bench in the 66th minute to replace Akos Buzsaky against Blackburn Rovers at Ewood Park with the score 3–0 to the home side. He scored twice to bring the score back to 3–2 and nearly grabbed an equaliser to push for a regular place in the side.<mask> came off the bench for Joey Barton in the home game against Liverpool to inspire a comeback from 2–0 down, scoring the winner in a 3–2 victory at Loftus Road. He also scored QPR's second goal in the final match of the 2011–12 Premier League season in a 3–2 loss to Manchester City, who were crowned Champions that day. 2012–13 season

title: Susan Dowdell Myrick

texts:
<mask>Sue<mask> (February 20, 1893 – September 3, 1978) was an American journalist, educator, author, and conservationist. Her friendship with author Margaret Mitchell led to <mask>'s role as a technical advisor and dialect coach during the production of Gone with the Wind (1939), ensuring the film accurately portrayed the accents, customs, and manners of the South. Due to this expertise she has been called the "Emily Post of the South". <mask> also was a columnist, reporter, and associate editor for Macon-based newspaper The Telegraph, working at the paper for fifty years. Early life and education
<mask> was born to <mask> and <mask> (née Whitehurst) on February 20, 1893, on the 1,000-acre Dovedale Plantation in Baldwin County, Georgia, the fifth out of eight siblings. She studied education at Georgia Normal and Industrial College from 1910 to 1911, and taught physical education there following her graduating. <mask> also taught at the Student Normal School of Physical Education in Battle Creek, Michigan from 1913 to 1914, where she also studied at the American Medical Missionary College.In 1916 she moved to Hastings, Nebraska, where she was the public school's physical education supervisor. The next year <mask> attended a physical education program at Harvard University during the summer before moving back to Georgia. Career

Physical education
<mask> worked for the Georgia Department of Education from 1918 through 1922, after which she served as director of physical education at Lanier High School for Girls from 1923 to 1928. The Telegraph
While working at Lanier High School, <mask> started writing an advice column geared towards young girls and women called "Life in a Tangle" for Macon's Telegraph. The articles were published under the pseudonym "Fannie Squeers" and quickly became popular, leading <mask> to quit teaching and begin working for the Telegraph full-time in 1928. She continued her work as a columnist, wrote recipes, features, and obituaries. <mask> joined the Georgia Press Association through which she became acquainted with a variety of journalists and reporters, including Sherwood Anderson and, notably, fellow Georgia native Margaret Mitchell.<mask> and Mitchell soon became close friends, often visiting each other in Macon and Atlanta, respectively, "sit[ting] up all night talking". Additionally, <mask> became a member of the Macon Writers' Club. She briefly also wrote for Telegraph-owned The News in 1940, and was editor of the Telegraphs Sunday-edition Georgia Magazine. After the outbreak of World War II, <mask> began working as the Telegraphs war editor; after the war she served as farm editor starting in 1946, producing a page each Sunday, and she was made associate editor in 1948. She was given an award by the Women's National Press Club in 1950. Despite retiring as associate editor in January 1967, <mask> continued to publish two editorial columns a week for over a decade – her last column for the Telegraph was published on August 17, 1978, less than a month before her death. Gone with the Wind

When production first started on the 1939 film adaptation of Margaret Mitchell's novel Gone with the Wind (1936), Mitchell recommended to producer David O. Selznick that <mask> should be a consultant on the film.<mask> spent six weeks in Los Angeles coaching the actors on how to speak with a Southern accent (Selznick International wrote in a letter that she was "one of the best authorities on this matter, who will come to the studio from Atlanta just for this particular job"), and her voice was recorded and pressed onto records for the actors to use as reference. <mask> would later explain that she "went out there [to Hollywood] fully prepared to argue and to quote authority to them that the Southern people do not talk like Negroes, but the Negroes like Southerners". She also continued to act as a technical consultant during filming, providing insight on how to make the film's production design as authentic as possible. <mask> also re-watched each recorded scene to check for mistakes. <mask> was against the decision to cast Hattie McDaniel as the character Mammy, as she thought McDaniel didn't have the "dignity, age, [or] nobility" for the role. McDaniel went on to win the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress for her performance, becoming the first African American to win an Oscar. Overall <mask> worked on the production for seven months, earning $125/week from January to July 1939.Following the film's release, <mask> gained prominence discussing her work across the country, earning her the title "the Emily Post of the South". Her first freelance article, "Pardon My Un-Southern Accent: Why Gone with the Wind Won't Jar Southerners", appeared in the December 16, 1939, issue of Collier's, and she wrote an additional article for Southern Living in October 1967 about the experience. When NBC first premiered Gone with the Wind on broadcast television on November 7, 1976, <mask> was a main presenter of an hour-long introductory program broadcast on WSB-TV. Years after her death, <mask>'s coverage of the film's production—a total of 58 columns that she wrote for the Telegraph while in California—was compiled into a 1982 book titled White Columns in Hollywood: Reports from the Gone with the Wind Sets, edited by Richard Barksdale Harwell. Conservationism and agriculture
<mask> had a passion for agriculture and farming throughout her life. Her work as farm editor for the Telegraph brought her statewide praise and even national recognition. Myrick often promoted the use of blue lupine as a winter forage crop that would prevent erosion, building soil and holding water, and in 1949 a conservationist group in Dooly County named Myrick the "Bloomin' Lupine Queen".In 1950 she wrote a children's book titled Our Daily Bread about environmental conservationism that was used as an official textbook in Georgia, North Carolina, and Tennessee. In 1956, the Progressive Farmer bestowed upon her their Woman of the Year in Service to Agriculture award, and the National Association of Soil and Water Conservation Districts recognized her work with a special citation in 1963. Additionally, <mask> was a member of the Macon Chamber of Commerce's livestock and farming committees. Personal life and legacy
<mask> was close friends with fellow journalist and author Margaret Mitchell, and remained friends with Mitchell's widower John Marsh following her sudden death; Marsh would die three years later in 1952. During World War II, she helped organize Red Cross events and salvage campaigns, and she served on the Bibb County War Price and Rations Board. <mask> was a charter member of the Macon Little Theater in 1934, and was the theater's president from 1947 to 1948. She also appeared in over twenty-five stage productions.<mask> also watercolor painted as a hobby. <mask> died on September 3, 1978, and was buried at Memory Hill Cemetery in Milledgeville. She never married and had no children. She was added to the Georgia Press Association's Georgia Newspaper Hall of Fame in 1984. In 2008, <mask> was inducted into the Georgia Women of Achievement Hall of Fame. Bibliography

Professional career

Cruiserweight
<mask> was a fast and hard-punching boxer who competed entirely at cruiserweight. <mask> knocked out Daniel Bispo in the first round to win the vacant WBA Fedelatin Cruiserweight Championship. On December 29, 2007, he knocked out world title challenger Mohamed Azzaoui to retain his WBA Fedelatin title and win the vacant WBC Latino title but suffered his first defeat on March 29, 2008 when he lost via 3rd-round TKO to ex-champ Wayne Braithwaite of Guyana after controlling the match for the first two rounds and even knocking Braithwaite down in the 1st round. <mask> got too cocky in the 3rd and decided to shoot it out with him resulting in Braithwaite knocking <mask> down 3 times.He later won a wide decision over prospect Aaron Williams. On September 19, 2009 <mask> defeated Enad Licina by a wide UD for the IBF Inter-Continental Cruiserweight title, becoming the first Cuban to hold a version of the IBF title since it was created. On March 13, 2010 <mask> made his first defense of the IBF Inter-Continental title by beating Cesar David Crenz by unanimous decision. On February 12, 2011 <mask> won the Interim WBA Cruiserweight title by knocking out Steve Herelius. With this latest win he extended his undefeated streak to 10 fights since the defeat to Braithwaite and improved his overall record to 24-1 (13 knockouts). <mask> vs. Cunningham I & II
On 1 October 2011, <mask> defeated The Ring No. 1 Cruiserweight, Steve Cunningham, by sixth round technical decision for the IBF Cruiserweight Championship.The fight was stopped due to <mask> being cut by an illegal headbutt, though the fight was not without controversy. <mask> knocked Cunningham down with a counter left hook in the first round and seemed to be badly hurt, but referee Mickey Vann decided to let the fight continue after what seemed like a controversial slow count. Cunningham made a comeback during the second and third rounds, hitting <mask> with body shots in the second and becoming more aggressive during the third. However the latter round was also marred with controversy as <mask> was hit with an accidental headbutt that caused a cut and that many felt was intentional, with referee Vann not stopping the fight or even giving a warning to Cunningham. During the fourth round both fighters seems about equal, with Cunningham controlling the pace with his jab and <mask> successfully landing a combo. During the fifth round, <mask> accidentally hit Cunningham behind the head when referee Vann attempted to break up a clinch. During the sixth and final round the corner of <mask> as well as the ringside physician inspected the cut caused by Cunningham's headbutt.Afterwards <mask> seemed ready to resume with the round when the referee stopped the fight due to the physician deeming <mask> unfit to continue. The score cards were 57–56 for Cunningham and 58–55 and 59–54 for <mask>. <mask> and Cunningham had a rematch on 4 February 2012. The winner of this fight was to be crowned the new The Ring Cruiserweight Champion. <mask> won via unanimous decision. Professional boxing record

title: James H. Stratton

texts:
<mask> (7 June 189816 March 1984) was a United States Army general who served in World War I and World War II. Between the wars he was involved in the construction of the Conchas Dam and the John Martin Reservoir. During World War II he was the Chief of Engineering in the Office of Chief of Engineers and the Assistant Chief of Staff (G-4) of Communications Zone in the European Theater of Operations, United States Army (ETOUSA), the staff officer responsible for logistics planning. After the war he became a partner in Tippetts-Abbett-McCarthy-Stratton, a consulting engineering firm in New York, and directed the construction of the Tarbela Dam in Pakistan, the world's largest embankment dam, and the design of the Eisenhower Tunnel, the highest tunnel in the United States. Early life
<mask> was born in Stonington, Connecticut, on 7 June 1898, the son of <mask> and his wife Emma  Symington, a pair of immigrants from Northern Ireland. When he was a boy, the family moved to Paterson, New Jersey, where he attended public schools. After graduating from high school he worked in New York City by day and attended evening classes at Columbia University.His education was interrupted when the United States declared war on Germany in April 1917, and he enlisted in the New Jersey National Guard. He was accidentally shot in the chest by one of his fellow soldiers, which he would later claim was the closest he came to a shot fired in anger in his whole career. He sat the competitive examination to the United States Military Academy at West Point, New York, which he entered on 14 June 1918. Between the wars
On 14 June 1920, <mask> graduated, ranked 51st in the West Point class of 1920 (the course having been shortened to two years on account of the war), and was commissioned as a second lieutenant in the field artillery on 2 July. He never joined a field artillery unit, for during the summer break after graduation he managed to transfer to the  Corps of Engineers, in which he was commissioned as a first lieutenant on 11 September 1920. He attended the Engineer Officer Basic Course at the United States Army Engineer School at Camp A. A. Humphreys in Virginia from 15 September 1920 to 27 January 1921, and was then assigned to the 5th Engineers at Camp Meade, Maryland.On 15 June 1921, he entered the Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, where he was a member of Theta Xi fraternity, and from which he graduated with a Bachelor of Civil Engineering degree on 16 June 1922. <mask> was posted to Camp Devens, Massachusetts, for duty with the Citizens' Military Training Camp, and then to 13th Engineers at Fort Humphreys, where he was reduced in rank to second lieutenant on 15 December 1922. On 6 December 1924 he went to Panama Canal Zone as assistant to the Supply Officer for the Military Survey of Panama, and then supply officer of the 11th Engineers. He was promoted to first lieutenant again on 4 April 1925. He returned to the United States in December 1927, and became an instructor with the 104th Engineers, a unit of the New Jersey National Guard. In November 1931, <mask> joined the 8th Engineer Squadron at Fort McIntosh, Texas. There, he met and married Julia Selby Bryant in 1932.They had a son, William R<mask>, and two daughters, Terry and Julia. He also had a daughter, Patricia, from his first marriage to Janice (Brotzmann) Bergen. In 1933, he moved to St. Paul, Minnesota, as assistant district engineer, where he worked on flood control projects on the Mississippi River, and then to Tucumcari, New Mexico, where he worked on the Conchas Dam. He was promoted to captain on 1 August 1935. Further duty followed as assistant to the district engineers in Boston, Massachusetts, and Denison, Texas, before returning to the Conchas Dam as district engineer on 4 November 1939. He then became the district engineer in Caddoa, Colorado, where he was in charge of the John Martin Reservoir project. World War II
<mask> was promoted to major in the Corps of Engineers  on 1 July 1940 and lieutenant colonel in the Army of the United States on 11 December 1941.On 11 December 1941—four days after the Japanese bombing of Pearl Harbor that brought the United States into World War II—he became the Chief of Engineering in the Office of Chief of Engineers, based in the Railroad Retirement Board Building in Washington, D.C. This was the largest of the branches of the Construction Division, which had recently been transferred to the Corps of Engineers from the Quartermaster Corps, with about 1,400 personnel. <mask> started with decentralizing the office. He told his section chiefs that "we have a job for everyone in this branch, either here or in the field. ...I know many of the Quartermaster people particularly are worried. No one will be out in the street." Over the following months the staff was reduced to about 500, largely through transfers to the district offices.An important part of his job was managing wartime shortages of critical materials. <mask> ordered a sweeping review of structural plans, and huge quantities of scarce materials were saved as a result. One of his civilian assistants described <mask> as "an Engineer who was an engineer". He was promoted to colonel on 4 July 1942. For his services as Chief of Engineering, he was awarded the Legion of Merit. On 15 September 1943, <mask> became the Assistant Chief of Staff, G-4, of the United States Army Services of Supply (SOS) in the European Theater of Operations, United States Army (ETOUSA), with the rank of brigadier general from 28 May 1944. SOS headquarters was subsequently merged with that of ETOUSA, and officially became the Communications Zone (COMZ) on 7 June 1944.The G-4 was the staff member responsible for logistics, and since that was the role of SOS/COMZ, his was the most important one on the staff. It was considered an unusual appointment, as <mask> had no formal staff training, having not attended the Command and General Staff College or the Army War College, had no experience in logistical support of armies in the field, and had not been involved in the development of the Operation Overlord plan for the Allied invasion of Normandy and the subsequent operations in Northwest Europe. Nonetheless, he remained in this role for the rest of the war. For his services, he was awarded the Army Distinguished Service Medal. <mask> returned to United States in March 1945, and became the Assistant Chief of Engineers of Civil Works. The civil works program had languished during the war, but a revitalised program provided large numbers of jobs in the immediate post-war years. He reverted to his substantive rank of lieutenant colonel on 31 January 1946.On 1 May 1946, he was appointed the Chief of the Special Engineering Division in the Panama Canal Zone, reporting to the Governor of the Panama Canal Zone on the future development of the Panama Canal. He was promoted to colonel again on 11 March 1948. His final assignment, on 1 June 1948, was as Boston District Engineer. He retired from the army with the rank of colonel on 31 July 1949, but was subsequently promoted to his wartime rank of brigadier general on the retired list on 1 August 1949. Later life
After retiring from the Army, <mask> joined the Knappen-Tippetts-Abbett Engineering Company, a consulting engineering firm in New York that had been founded by Theodore Knappen, a fellow member of the West Point Class of 1920. He became a partner in the firm in 1951, and it was renamed Tippetts-Abbett-McCarthy-Stratton. He was involved in several major water resources projects in Iraq, Turkey, Greece and Latin America.He also directed the engineering of the Tarbela dam in Pakistan, the world's largest embankment dam, and the design of the Eisenhower Tunnel through the Rocky Mountains  in Colorado, which was the highest vehicle tunnel in the world when it was opened. He retired in January 1967, and moved to Washington, DC. <mask>'s publications included a 1945 article on military airfields that received the American Society of Civil Engineers' Arthur M. Wellington Prize, and he contributed  chapters to the Handbook of Applied Hydraulics (1952) and American Civil Engineering Practice (1956). He was elected an honorary member of the American Society of Civil Engineers in 1979, and a member of the National Academy of Engineering in 1981. He was a member of the board of education in Englewood, New Jersey, for seven years, and a member of the Special Curricula Committee that advised the dean of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) Department of Civil and Sanitary Engineering on the structure and content of undergraduate courses. He also served on MIT's board of visitors, which met once a year to advise the department. <mask> died from congestive heart failure at Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington, DC, on 16 March 1984, and was buried in Arlington National Cemetery.Dates of rank

title: Mary Brunner

texts:
<mask> (born December 17, 1943) is a former member of the "Manson Family" who was present during the 1969 murder of Gary Hinman, a California musician and Ph.D. candidate. She was arrested for numerous offenses, including credit card theft and armed robbery, and she served a prison sentence at the California Institution for Women. Meeting <mask> was born in Eau Claire, Wisconsin to George and <mask>. She moved to California upon graduating from the University of Wisconsin–Madison in 1965 and took a job as library assistant at University of California, Berkeley. She met 33-year-old career criminal Charles Manson who had been released from Terminal Island prison several weeks earlier. She let him stay at her apartment and the two became lovers after several weeks. She was thus the first person whom Manson recruited into his "Family".She quit her job and the two began to drift around California in a van meeting other young women. Manson impregnated <mask> during the summer of 1967 and she gave birth to a son on April 15, 1968 whom she named Valentine Michael, nicknamed "Pooh Bear". They were living in a condemned house in Topanga Canyon, and she was assisted during the birth by several of the young women from the Family. She acquired a number of aliases and nicknames, including "Marioche", "Och", "<mask>", "<mask>", "Linda Dee Manson", and "Christine Marie Euchts". <mask> and Manson met 18-year-old Lynette Fromme in Venice, California, and the three began living together in a rented house at 636 Cole Street in San Francisco. Over the course of the following two years, the Family enlarged to include between 20 and 30 individuals living communally; some became ardent followers of Manson, such as <mask> and Fromme, while other young people drifted in and out of the group. The Manson group traveled along the California coast and made excursions to Washington state, Oregon, and Nevada.The ever-growing number of young women and men eventually settled down at the Spahn Ranch, an occasional film set and location operated by George Spahn near the Los Angeles suburb of Chatsworth. Manson ostensibly based his commune on principles of freedom and love, but he exerted dictatorial control, ordering the women to have sex with Spahn and others. Manson sent his female followers to the city on criminal activities, such as theft and fraud. He also had illegal firearms and played host to a motorcycle gang. Early arrests
On April 21, 1968 Brunner and Family members Manson, Susan Atkins, Ella Jo Bailey, Dianne Elizabeth Lake, Nancy Laura Pitman, Bruce Van Hall, Marcus John Arneson and Suzanne Scott were arrested near Little Sycamore Canyon, in southern Ventura County, California. They were found sprawled nude around a campfire beside a 1952 bus "stuck in a deep ditch", that had been reported stolen in San Francisco on April 12. Manson was remanded into custody under the suspicion of grand theft auto and possession of two driver's licenses.Scott, Atkins, Lake and Van Hall were charged with possessing fictitious and fraudulent driver's licenses. Pitman, Arneson and Bailey were jailed on charges of disorderly conduct and not possessing proper identification. Five other Family members were released without being charged. <mask> was booked on endangering the life and health of a child, after her one-week-old son, Valentine, was found by deputies improperly dressed and shivering. The baby was placed in the care of the Ventura County General Hospital. Charges against <mask> were later reduced to contributing to the delinquency of a minor and she was given two years' probation and a 15-day suspended jail sentence. She subsequently told authorities she planned to return to her parents' home in Wisconsin and Valentine was returned to her.Just a few months later, in June 1968, <mask> along with other members of the Manson Family were arrested in Mendocino County, California for supplying narcotics to minors. The Hinman murder
Bobby Beausoleil left Spahn Ranch on July 25, 1969 accompanied by <mask> and Susan Atkins to visit Gary Allen Hinman in Topanga Canyon. Hinman had been friendly with the Family and had often allowed members to stay at his home. Both Beausoleil and <mask> had previously lived with him for short periods of time and <mask> was close friends with him. Beausoleil had a knife and a 9 mm Radom pistol that he had borrowed from Family member Bruce Davis. After two friends of Hinman contacted the police, Hinman was found by Malibu deputy Paul Piet murdered in his home on July 31, 1969. His face had been deeply slashed on the left side and he had two stab wounds in his chest.His house had been ransacked, and "Political Piggy" and a paw print (intended to be symbolic of the Black Panther Party) were drawn on the wall in his blood. His Volkswagen van and Fiat station wagon were missing. The California Highway Patrol found Beausoleil asleep in the back of Hinman's Fiat on August 5 near San Luis Obispo, California. He had a sheath knife attached to his belt.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20101122031638/http://charliemanson.com/beausoleil.htm Oui magazine. Jailhouse Interview:Bobby Beausoleil and the Manson Murders. November, 1981]</ref> Beausoleil was arrested and charged with the murder of Gary Allen Hinman. Brunner and Family member Sandra Good were arrested in San Fernando, California on August 8 at a Sears store for purchasing items with a stolen credit card.<mask> had signed for her purchases with the alias "<mask>" and the two women fled the store when a cashier became suspicious. The store manager followed them, and the police found them in possession of numerous stolen credit cards and fake identification cards. They were charged with violating Section 459 (burglary) and 484e (grand theft by fraudulent use of credit card) of the California Penal Code and booked into the Sybil Brand Institute Reception Center later that evening. On the night of August 9, Family members Charles "Tex" Watson, Susan Atkins, Linda Kasabian, and Patricia Krenwinkel went to 10050 Cielo Drive and murdered pregnant actress Sharon Tate and her guests Wojciech Frykowski, Jay Sebring, and Abigail Folger, as well as 18-year-old Steven Parent who was visiting William Garretson, who was house-sitting in the guesthouse normally occupied by Tate's landlord. Prosecution witness
There is agreement that Manson was behind the killing of Hinman. <mask> was present throughout and was the key witness for the prosecution. She testified at Beausoleil's trial that Beausoleil killed Hinman (a musician), because Hinman had refused to join Manson's pop group.Other hypotheses
There have been many other suggestions. Vincent Bugliosi, who was the prosecutor in the Tate-LaBianca case, claimed in his 1974 book Helter Skelter: The True Story of the Manson Murders, that Manson instructed Beausoleil, <mask> and Atkins to go to Hinman's house to get money and titles to Hinman's vehicles.Bugliosi, pp. 102-03. This account was later corroborated by various Family members. However, Beausoleil denied Manson's direct involvement and disputed that neither <mask> nor Atkins had any direct knowledge of why he was visiting Hinman. Beausoleil contended that he went to Hinman's home in order to confront Hinman and collect $1,000 from him. Beausoleil claimed that he had purchased from Hinman tabs of mescaline that he then sold to a biker gang called the Straight Satans.He further explained that several hours after the gang purchased the mescaline from Beausoleil, they showed up at Spahn Ranch, claiming the mescaline was poisoned with strychnine, demanded their money back and threatened to kill Beausoleil. Beausoleil contended that both <mask> and Atkins merely went along with him to Hinman's because they "liked" Hinman and wanted to visit. In a 1981 interview with Oui magazine, he states that neither he nor <mask> nor Atkins were instructed by Manson to go to Hinman's and that he initially had no intention to kill him. This contradicted Beausoleil's own testimony at his first trial in 1969, when he claimed that Manson did in fact instruct him to kill Hinman. Beausoleil claimed "<mask> was just scared to death. She just faded into the woodwork" during the murder, but that Atkins went back into the house after Beausoleil stabbed Hinman and placed a pillow over Hinman's face. He also contended that it was Atkins who wrote the words "Political Piggy" on Hinman's wall (at Beausoleil's instructions).In October 1969, police raided the Family's new residence at Barker Ranch near Death Valley, California, holding most of the group in custody on charges of automobile theft. Among those arrested were Atkins, who, while being questioned by police sergeants Whitley and Guenther on October 13, 1969, implicated herself in the murder of Hinman and told the officers that Manson had sent her and Beausoleil to Hinman's residence to force Hinman to hand over money that Manson believed Hinman had inherited. Atkins also told the police that Beausoleil alone acted in the murder of Hinman, stabbing him twice in the heart after detaining him in his home for over two days. Atkins also maintained that it was Beausoleil who slashed Hinman's face, not Manson. However, Atkins gave several differing accounts of the murder of Hinman; at times claiming that she killed Hinman, Manson killed Hinman or that Beausoleil killed Hinman. Trial
<mask> and Susan Atkins were subsequently charged along with Bobby Beausoleil for the murder of Gary Hinman. <mask> later received immunity from prosecution to testify against both Beausoleil and Atkins.His first trial, which began in November 1969 ended in a hung jury, with Beausoleil claiming that Manson alone had murdered Hinman. However, during Beausoleil's March 1970 trial, <mask> repudiated her testimony that Beausoleil murdered Hinman and Beausoleil produced an affidavit signed by <mask> stating that he did not stab Hinman. Called to the stand to testify, <mask> eventually repudiated her previous testimony and insisted that she had said Beausoleil stabbed Hinman to death in her attempt to absolve Charles Manson of any participation in the crime. Various former Family members such as Ella Jo Bailey contradicted this testimony and testified that Manson confessed to them that he in fact was present at the Hinman house and that he fully participated in the murder. Beausoleil was sentenced to death, later commuted to life (See California v. Anderson); Atkins pleaded guilty for her participation in Hinman's death and was sentenced to life imprisonment. Bruce Davis was charged in the murder after it was learned Beausoleil had called Davis at Spahn Ranch and asked him to come over and pick up Hinman's Volkswagen van. Separate trials were held for the murders of Gary Hinman and Spahn Ranch worker Donald "Shorty" Shea, for Family members Davis, Charles Manson, and Steve "Clem" Grogan.<mask> subsequently returned to the remaining members of the Family and rallied support for those incarcerated for the Tate–LaBianca murders. Her son was sent to live with her parents. Hawthorne shootout
<mask> drove a white van to a Hawthorne, California Western Surplus Store on August 21, 1971, accompanied by Family members Catherine "Gypsy" Share, Dennis Rice, Charles Lovett, Larry Bailey, and Kenneth Como. The group brandished guns and ordered patrons and clerks to lie on the ground. They then took 143 rifles, loading them into their van, while a store clerk tripped the silent alarm. According to police officers, the group then debated whether to kill all of those in the store. Police alleged that the group's plan was to hijack a Boeing 747 and threaten to kill one passenger every hour until Manson and fellow Family members were released from prison.A police squad car arrived, and Share opened fire on the vehicle, shattering the windshield. As more squad cars arrived, they blocked the van from fleeing, hitting it with more than 50 bullets; the Family members fired nearly 20 rounds at the officers. Police gained control and apprehended the group; <mask>, Share, and Bailey were injured. <mask> received a sentence of 20 years to life. She was sent to the California Institution for Women where Leslie Van Houten, Susan Atkins, and Patricia Krenwinkel were serving their sentences for their participation in the Tate-LaBianca murders. <mask> disappeared from the public eye after being paroled in 1977.

title: Yasujirō Ozu

texts:
was a Japanese film director and screenwriter. He began his career during the era of silent films, and his last films were made in colour in the early 1960s. Ozu first made a number of short comedies, before turning to more serious themes in the 1930s. The most prominent themes of Ozu's work are marriage and family, especially the relationships between generations. His most widely beloved films include Late Spring (1949), Tokyo Story (1953), and An Autumn Afternoon (1962). Widely regarded as one of the world's greatest and most influential filmmakers, Ozu's work has continued to receive acclaim since his death. In the 2012 Sight & Sound poll, Ozu's Tokyo Story was voted the third-greatest film of all time by critics world-wide.In the same poll, Tokyo Story was voted the greatest film of all time by  358 directors and film-makers world-wide. Biography

Early life
<mask> was born in the Fukagawa district of Tokyo, the second son of five brothers and sisters. His father sold fertilizer. Ozu attended Meiji nursery school and primary school. In March 1913, at the age of nine, he and his siblings were sent by his father to live in his father's home town of Matsusaka in Mie Prefecture, where he remained until 1924. In March 1916, at the age of 12, he entered what is now Ujiyamada High School. He was a boarder at the school and did judo.He frequently skipped classes to watch films such as Quo Vadis or The Last Days of Pompeii. In 1917, he saw the film Civilization and decided that he wanted to be a film director. In 1920, at the age of 17, he was thrown out of the dormitory after being accused of writing a love letter to a good-looking boy in a lower class, and had to commute to school by train. In March 1921, Ozu graduated from the high school. He attempted the exam for entrance into what is now Kobe University's economics department, but failed. In 1922, he took the exam for a teacher training college, but failed it too. On 31 March 1922, he began working as a substitute teacher at a school in the Mie prefecture.He is said to have traveled the long journey from the school in the mountains to watch films on the weekend. In December 1922, his family, with the exception of Ozu and his sister, moved back to Tokyo to live with his father. In March 1923, when his sister graduated, he also returned to live in Tokyo. Entering the film business

With his uncle acting as intermediary, Ozu was hired by the Shochiku Film Company, as an assistant in the cinematography department, on 1 August 1923, against the wishes of his father. His family home was destroyed in the earthquake of 1923, but no members of his family were injured. On 12 December 1924, Ozu started a year of military service. He finished his military service on 30 November 1925, leaving as a corporal.In 1926, he became a third assistant director at Shochiku. In 1927, he was involved in a fracas where he punched another employee for jumping a queue at the studio cafeteria, and when called to the studio director's office, used it as an opportunity to present a film script he had written. In September 1927, he was promoted to director in the jidaigeki (period film) department, and directed his first film, Sword of Penitence, which has since been lost. Sword of Penitence was written by Ozu, with a screenplay by Kogo Noda, who would become his co-writer for the rest of his career. On September 25, he was called up for service in the military reserves until November, which meant that the film had to be partly finished by another director. In 1928, Shiro Kido, the head of the Shochiku studio, decided that the company would concentrate on making short comedy films without star actors. Ozu made many of these films.The film Body Beautiful, released on 1 December 1928, was the first <mask> film to use a low camera position, which would become his trademark. After a series of the "no star" pictures, in September 1929, <mask>'s first film with stars, I graduated But..., starring Minoru Takada and Kinuyo Tanaka, was released. In January 1930, he was entrusted with Shochiku's top star, Sumiko Kurishima, in her new year film, An Introduction to Marriage. His subsequent films of 1930 impressed Shiro Kido enough to invite Ozu on a trip to a hot spring. In his early works, <mask> used the pseudonym "James Maki" for his screenwriting credit. His film Young Miss, with an all-star cast, was the first time he used the pen name James Maki, and was also his first film to appear in film magazine Kinema Jumpo's "Best Ten" at third position. In 1932, his I Was Born, But..., a comedy about childhood with serious overtones, was received by movie critics as the first notable work of social criticism in Japanese cinema, winning Ozu wide acclaim.In 1935 <mask> made a short documentary with soundtrack: Kagami Jishi, in which Kikugoro VI performed a Kabuki dance of the same title. This was made by request of the Ministry of Education. Like the rest of Japan's cinema industry, <mask> was slow to switch to the production of talkies: his first film with a dialogue sound-track was The Only Son in 1936, five years after Japan's first talking film, Heinosuke Gosho's The Neighbor's Wife and Mine. War-time
On 9 September 1937, at a time when Shochiku was unhappy about <mask>'s lack of box-office success, despite the praise he received from critics, the thirty-four-year-old <mask> was conscripted into the Imperial Japanese Army. He spent two years in China in the Second Sino-Japanese War. He arrived in Shanghai on 27 September 1937 as part of an infantry regiment which handled chemical weapons. He started as a corporal but was promoted to sergeant on 1 June 1938.From January until September 1938 he was stationed in Nanjing, where he met Sadao Yamanaka, who was stationed nearby. In September, Yamanaka died of illness. In 1939, <mask> was dispatched to Hankou, where he fought in the Battle of Nanchang and the Battle of Xiushui River. In June, he was ordered back to Japan, arriving in Kobe in July, and his conscription ended on 16 July 1939. Some of <mask>’s published diaries cover his wartime experiences between December 20, 1938 to June 5, 1939. Another diary from his wartime years (陣中日記), he expressly forbade from publication. In the published diaries, reference to his group’s participation in chemical warfare (in violation of the Geneva Protocol, though Japan had withdrawn from the League of Nations in 1933) can be found, for example, in various entries from March, 1939.In other entries, he describes Chinese soldiers in disparaging terms, likening them in one passage to insects. Although operating as a military squad leader, Ozu retains his directorial perspective, once commenting that the initial shock and subsequent agony of a man as he is hacked to death is very much like its depiction in period films. <mask>’s writings also offers a glimpse into the Japanese military’s use of comfort women. In a letter sent to friends in Japan on April 11, 1938 from Dingyuan County in China’s Anhui Province, Ozu writes about the comfort station protocol in lightly coded terms. In a January 13, 1939 diary entry, Ozu writes more openly about his group’s upcoming turn for use of a comfort station near Yingcheng. He mentions that two tickets, ointment, and prophylatics are provided and that three Korean and 12 Chinese women were being held at the comfort station for their use. Comfort station rates and schedules are also given by Ozu.In 1939, he wrote the first draft of the script for The Flavor of Green Tea over Rice but shelved it due to extensive changes insisted on by military censors. The first film <mask> made on his return was the critically and commercially successful Brothers and Sisters of the Toda Family, released in 1941. He followed this with Chichi Ariki (There Was a Father, 1942), which explored the strong bonds of affection between a father and son despite years of separation. In 1943, <mask> was again drafted into the army for the purpose of making a propaganda film in Burma. However, he was sent to Singapore instead, to make a documentary Derii e, Derii e ("To Delhi, to Delhi") about Chandra Bose. During his time in Singapore, having little inclination to work, he spent an entire year reading, playing tennis, and watching American films provided by the Army information corps. He was particularly impressed with Orson Welles's Citizen Kane.He occupied a fifth-floor room facing the sea in the Cathay Building where he entertained guests, drew pictures, and collected rugs. At the end of the Second World War in August 1945, Ozu destroyed the script, and all footage, of the film. He was detained as a civilian, and worked in a rubber plantation. Of his film team of 32 people, there was only space for 28 on the first repatriation boat to Japan. Ozu won a lottery giving him a place, but gave it to someone else who was anxious to return. Postwar
Ozu returned to Japan in February 1946, and moved back in with his mother, who had been staying with his sister in Noda in Chiba prefecture. He reported for work at the Ofuna studios on 18 February 1946.His first film released after the war was Record of a Tenement Gentleman in 1947. Around this time, the Chigasakikan Ryokan became <mask>'s favoured location for scriptwriting. Tokyo Story was the last script that Ozu wrote at Chigasakikan. In later years, <mask> and Noda used a small house in the mountains at Tateshina in Nagano Prefecture called Unkosō to write scripts, with <mask> staying in a nearby house called Mugeisō. <mask>'s films from the late 1940s onward were favourably received, and the entries in the so-called "Noriko trilogy" (starring Setsuko Hara) of Late Spring (1949), Early Summer (1951), and Tokyo Story (1953) are among his most acclaimed works, with Tokyo Story widely considered his masterpiece. Late Spring, the first of these films, was the beginning of <mask>'s commercial success and the development of his cinematography and storytelling style. These three films were followed by his first colour film, Equinox Flower, in 1958, Floating Weeds in 1959, and Late Autumn in 1960.In addition to Noda, other regular collaborators included cinematographer Yuharu Atsuta, along with the actors Chishū Ryū, Setsuko Hara, and Haruko Sugimura. His work was only rarely shown overseas before the 1960s. <mask>'s last film was An Autumn Afternoon, which was released in 1962. He served as president of the Directors Guild of Japan from 1955 to his death in 1963. Ozu was known for his drinking. He and Noda measured the progression of their scripts by how many bottles of sake they had drunk. Ozu remained single throughout his life.He lived with his mother until she died, less than two years before his own death. Ozu died of throat cancer in 1963, on his sixtieth birthday. The grave he shares with his mother at Engaku-ji in Kamakura bears no name—just the character mu ("nothingness"). Legacy and style

Ozu is probably as well known for the technical style and innovation of his films as for the narrative content. The style of his films is most striking in his later films, a style he had not fully developed until his post-war sound films. He did not conform to Hollywood conventions. Rather than using the typical over-the-shoulder shots in his dialogue scenes, the camera gazes on the actors directly, which has the effect of placing the viewer in the middle of the scene.Ozu did not use typical transitions between scenes, either. In between scenes he would show shots of certain static objects as transitions, or use direct cuts, rather than fades or dissolves. Most often the static objects would be buildings, where the next indoor scene would take place. It was during these transitions that he would use music, which might begin at the end of one scene, progress through the static transition, and fade into the new scene. He rarely used non-diegetic music in any scenes other than in the transitions. Ozu moved the camera less and less as his career progressed, and ceased using tracking shots altogether in his colour films. However, David Bordwell argues that Ozu is one of the few directors to "create a systematic alternative to Hollywood continuity cinema, but he does so by changing only a few premises."Ozu invented the "tatami shot", in which the camera is placed at a low height, supposedly at the eye level of a person kneeling on a tatami mat. Actually, <mask>'s camera is often even lower than that, only one or two feet off the ground, which necessitated the use of special tripods and raised sets. He used this low height even when there were no sitting scenes, such as when his characters walked in hallways. Ozu eschewed the traditional rules of movie storytelling, most notably eyelines. In his review of Floating Weeds, film critic Roger Ebert recounts:[<mask>] once had a young assistant who suggested that perhaps he should shoot conversations so that it seemed to the audience that the characters were looking at one another. Ozu agreed to a test. They shot a scene both ways, and compared them."You see?" Ozu said. "No difference!" <mask> was also an innovator in Japanese narrative structure through his use of ellipses, or the decision not to depict major events in the story. In An Autumn Afternoon (1962), for example, a wedding is merely mentioned in one scene, and the next sequence references this wedding (which has already occurred); the wedding itself is never shown. This is typical of <mask>'s films, which eschew melodrama by eliding moments that would often be used in Hollywood in attempts to stir an excessive emotional reaction from audiences. Ozu became recognized internationally when his films were shown abroad.Influential monographs by Donald Richie, Paul Schrader, and David Bordwell have ensured a wide appreciation of Ozu's style, aesthetics, and themes by the Anglophonic audience. Tributes and documentaries
Five, also known as Five Dedicated to Ozu, is an Iranian documentary film directed by Abbas Kiarostami. The film consists of five long takes set by the ocean. Five sequences: 1) A piece of driftwood on the seashore, carried about by the waves 2) People walking on the seashore. The oldest ones stop by, look at the sea, then go away 3) Blurry shapes on a winter beach. A herd of dogs. A love story 4) A group of loud ducks cross the image, in one direction then the other 5) A pond, at night.Frogs improvising a concert. A storm, then the sunrise. In 2003, the centenary of <mask>'s birth was commemorated at various film festivals around the world. Shochiku produced the film Café Lumière (珈琲時光), directed by Taiwanese film-maker Hou Hsiao-hsien as homage to Ozu, with direct reference to the late master's Tokyo Story (1953), to premiere on Ozu's birthday. Ozu was voted the tenth greatest director of all time in the 2002 British Film Institute's Sight & Sound poll of critics' top 10 directors. <mask>'s Tokyo Story has appeared several times in the Sight & Sound poll of best films selected by critics and directors. In 2012, it topped the poll of film directors' choices of "greatest film of all time".Ozu was one of film critic Roger Ebert's favourite film-makers. In 2013, director Yoji Yamada of the Otoko wa Tsurai yo film series remade Tokyo Story in a modern setting as Tokyo Family. In the Wim Wenders documentary film Tokyo-Ga, the director travels to Japan to explore the world of Ozu, interviewing both Chishū Ryū and Yuharu Atsuta. Filmography

title: Genki Horiguchi

texts:
is a Japanese professional wrestler, better known by the ring name . He is currently a full-time wrestler for Dragon Gate. He has also competed in Wrestling Society X and Ring of Honor. When <mask>'s hairline began receding, the fans began to chant H-A-G-E ( being Japanese for "baldness") at him. He managed to use this to gain a sort of cult popularity, and his catchphrase, "Who has called me hage? ", is one of the best known in Japan. <mask>, a wrestler currently working for Toryumon Mexico, was thought for some time to be <mask>'s brother, but the relationship was only a gimmick.Career

Toryumon
<mask> debuted in Toryumon as a face wrestler with a surfer gimmick. In 2001, he began to lose his hair, and in November he turned heel, cast away his surfer gimmick, and he joined the original M2K as a replacement for Chocoflake K-ICHI. He was the last wrestler to be added to the group. During his days in the M2K stable, he held the NWA World Welterweight Title twice, defeating Ryo Saito to win it, vacating the title after a no-contest match with Dragon Kid, defeating Ricky Marvin to win it again, and finally losing it to M2K stablemate Darkness Dragon. As part of Do FIXER, he won the UWA World Trios Titles with Susumu Yokosuka and Ryo Saito. He was responsible for bringing in Magnum TOKYO to lead the remnants of M2K after the name was sealed. In 2002, he would team with Magnum TOKYO and Darkness Dragon in a three-way trios tag team match against Ryo Saito, Masaaki Mochizuki & Dragon Kid and CIMA, Don Fujii & Yoshikazu Taru and was pinned by CIMA.In Spring 2003, he scored a series of upset wins, most of them via backslide. This led to the rise of his finisher, the Backslide from Heaven. Dragon Gate
While in Do FIXER, he formed a friendship with Ryo Saito that would endure for several years. He teamed with Saito to defeat The Florida Brothers at the 2004 Revolucion ppv event on January 31, 2004. He, Saito and Dragon Kid would win the Open the Triangle Gate Championship three times while teaming together in Do FIXER. The three of them would travel to Ring of Honor to take part in a match against Blood Generation's CIMA, Naruki Doi & Masato Yoshino, which would be given a rare five-star rating by famous wrestling columnist Dave Meltzer. In January 2007, he betrayed Saito and Do FIXER to join heel stable Muscle Outlaw'z.He underwent a radical transformation in appearance, and added blue mist to his arsenal. This turn lead him to an Open the Brave Gate title run, and a pinfall victory over CIMA in an 8-man elimination match (incidentally not his first direct win over CIMA). He feuded with gaijin Matt Sydal over the title before dropping it to Yasushi Kanda. After dropping the title, his push was not maintained. He began wrestling mainly early on the cards, taking the falls in multi-person matches, and was winless during all of March 2008. He began to develop kleptomania, stealing Tozawa-juku's pants and Anthony W. Mori's ring costume. During the unit turmoil in the early parts of 2008, <mask> remained firmly on the heel side of Muscle Outlaw'z, and followed them to Real Hazard.He acted as secretary to the Brave Gate belt commissioner Yoshito Sugamoto, which was actually the Brave Gate champion (and his fellow MO'z stablemate) Gamma himself, enforcing the outrageous rules randomly put in place by him that allowed Gamma to win title matches or retain his title if he lost the match. On July 27, 2008, <mask> defeated m.c.KZ to win the vacant Open the Brave Gate title for a second time. Despite the title win, his push was not increased, as he did not score any wins over any wrestler in higher standing than he had been previously. He defended it twice before losing it to Masato Yoshino on October 12, and then went right back to taking the falls in most multi-person matches for the remainder of 2008 and into 2009. When Ryo Saito turned heel in February 2009 and joined Real Hazard, he and <mask> began teaming again. On May 5, they won the Open the Twin Gate Championship from Susumu Yokosuka & Gamma in a Three-Way Match, which included fellow Real Hazard stablemates Kenichiro Arai & Yasushi Kanda. They would hold them until September 17, when they lost them to Shingo Takagi & YAMATO.Afterwards, <mask> was relatively quiet again. He unsuccessfully challenged Naoki Tanizaki in the fall of 2009 for the Open the Brave Gate Championship. On January 10, 2010, <mask> put out a blog where he stated that Real Hazard would win more matches via teamwork instead of illegal tactics and weapons play in 2010. He would prove to be a man of his word that day when he stopped Yasushi Kanda from using a blue box in a tag team match they had. Though they still won, his actions caused him and Kanda to begin bickering. The bickering intensified the following day, when Kanda made him lose a tag team match by accidentally hitting him. Five days later, <mask> would be backed up by Susumu Yokosuka and K-ness in his quest for clean matches, after they all refused help from Kanda in a six-man tag match they were involved in.However, the new clean fight trio suddenly found themselves winless in every match they were in, with Horiguchi taking the fall every time. Also, their mission caused a divide to slowly form in Real Hazard, with them on one side and Kanda, Kzy, and Takuya Sugawara on the other. (Kenichiro Arai and KAGETORA remained neutral). Tensions finally boiled over on February 10, after KAGETORA accidentally cost Sugawara a shot at becoming the next challenger for the Open the Dream Gate Title. <mask> left Real Hazard, along with Susumu and K-ness, and was put in a match against Sugawara, scheduled for March 3. However, K-neSuka and <mask> decided to not team together anymore, since they all did not like how he was losing constantly, and they all agreed that this was preventing K-neSuka from getting to the top of the tag team division. <mask> remained a lone wolf up until the 27th, when Dragon Kid suggested him to CIMA and Gamma as a new member of the WARRIORS stable, and he was welcomed into the fold.On May 13, 2010, <mask>, CIMA and Gamma defeated Don Fujii, Masaaki Mochizuki and Akebono to win the Open the Triangle Gate Championship. On October 25, 2010, <mask>, CIMA and Gamma lost the Open the Triangle Gate Championship to Naoki Tanizaki, Yasushi Kanda and Takuya Sugawara. <mask> turned heel on January 14, 2011, along with the rest of WARRIORS, when they attacked Masato Yoshino and WORLD-1, and joined forces with Naruki Doi's unnamed group. On January 18 the new group was named Blood Warriors. On February 6, 2011, <mask> and his Blood WARRIORS stablemate Ryo Saito defeated Don Fujii and Masaaki Mochizuki to win the Open the Twin Gate Championship. They would lose the title to rival group Junction Three representatives, Dragon Kid and PAC, on June 19, 2011. On February 9, 2012, new Blood Warriors leader Akira Tozawa kicked <mask> and Saito out of the group.On March 3, after <mask> teamed with Yasushi Kanda and Ryo Saito to win the vacant Open the Triangle Gate Championship, he renamed himself <mask> Horiguchi H.A.Gee.Mee!! and formed the Jimmyz stable with Jimmy KAGETORA, Jimmy Kanda, Ryo "Jimmy" Saito and Jimmy Susumu. The Jimmyz lost the Open the Triangle Gate Championship to World-1 International (Masato Yoshino, Naruki Doi and Pac) on May 6. On May 19, <mask> defeated Akira Tozawa in the finals to win the 2012 King of Gate tournament. On September 29, 2013, <mask> defeated Kzy in the finals of a tournament to win the Open the Brave Gate Championship for the third time. He lost the title to Flamita on March 16, 2014. Outside the Dragon System

Appearing in Aja Kong's "Yo!All the Members Set" 20th anniversary card, he teamed with Ryo Saito and Naoki Tanizaki against CIMA, Naruki Doi and Masato Yoshino at Korakuen Hall in Tokyo, Japan on August 21, 2005. At the beginning of 2007, he was briefly affiliated with the Wrestling Society X company that was run by MTV. He and Masato Yoshino were a tag team known as Team Dragon Gate, despite the fact the two were in rival stables at the time; Horiguchi was still aligned with face stable Do FIXER while Yoshino was in heel stable Blood Generation. They would only win an exploding cage timebomb deathmatch in their time in this promotion. Championships and accomplishments
