Bascom Mouton-Noted Acadian Musician.

Born/Died:

Many fiddlers and Acadian musicians have highlighted his work over the years. Tributes and songs have been recorded and referenced to his music. He was featured at the International Rice Festival in Crowley, LA in music and on a poster depicting legendary fiddlers of Acadian Music. A small portion of his earlier work was recorded by CODOFIL. The original audio tape was recorded in the home of the Mouton family on a rice farm in Morse, Louisiana. His wife Euzide Mouton performed with him and many other legends of Acadian music. They spoke Acadian French. The rice farm was located on a gully in a rural area near Morse, Louisiana. The Acadian philosophy of the Mouton family was that you could add a little bit to the gumbo and there was always room for someone hungry, regardless of their race, religion, or background. Many did that and were treated to music by the family. He was friends with Lionel Leleux, another famous Acadian Musician. Lionel Leleux performed his music. The web site http://louisdl.louislibraries.org has the song "Two Step a Bascom Mouton" and Waltz de Bascom Mouton (La Malheureuse) as remembered by Lionel Leleux. Theh waltz, VALSE À DEUX TEMPS is attributed to Bascom Mouton on the web site http://www.ibiblio.org/fiddlers/ Varise Connor learned the tune from Bascom Mouton at a party. There is an audio tape about Varise Connor, Eric Benoit, Michael Boucet visiting Bascom Mouton. Mouton family direct descendants live in Crowley, Lousiana and in Acadiana Parish. His daughter Ruby Marie Mouton Miles has preserved his guitar, fiddle and photographs.

David T. Kenney
The inventor Kenney’s nine patents, granted between 1903 and 1913, applicable to both machine-driven and manual vacuum cleaners, dominated the vacuum cleaner industry in the United States until the 1920s. Born in 1866, he was apprenticed at age 15 to a plumber and gained patents for flush toilets in the1890s, when he had his own plumbing business in Plainfield, New Jersey. His first vacuum cleaner installation was in the building of Henry Clay Frick in Pittsburgh in 1902. Its stationary 4,000-lb. steam engine powered pipes and hoses reaching into all parts of the building. The Vacuum Cleaner Company, the holder of Kenney’s patents, had headquarters in New York City. With the wealth derived from his patents, Kenney became a benefactor of Catholic institutions and was named a Papal Chamberlain in 1906. He was a prominent citizen of Plainfield, NJ, and served on various boards in that state. His last invention, patented in 1920, was for a heating system designed to improve the distribution of heat from a wood-burning fireplace. He committed suicide in 1922 after losing his wife and a sister.

Jack Frost (TV Special)

 * This request for creation has been reviewed. The result is below.

Created in 1979 by Jules Bass and Arthur Rankin Jr., this claymation special tells the tale of Jack Frost, the winter sprite, and his adventures as a human.

Plot
Today was a very special and fateful day. It was February 2: Groundhog Day. News reporters from all around gathered at the hole of Pardon-Me- Pete the Groundhog. This was indeed a fateful day because if Pete casts a shadow and is afraid of it, the world would be in for six more weeks of winter. Well, Pardon-Me-Pete stepped out of his hole, cast a shadow, and was indeed afraid of it and ran back inside. But how could he cast a shadow on a day like today with no sun? Back down in his home, Pardon-Me-Pete tells that it was not in fact his shadow, but a magic shadow cast by Jack Frost, the mystic sprite who creates snow and ice. Pete tells us the story of how at one time, many, many years ago, Jack Frost became human. Not to mention the reason Jack Frost helped out Pardon-Me-Pete with the shadow routine: six more weeks of winter for Frost, and six more weeks of shut-eye for Pete. The story begins long, long ago in a tiny village called January Junction. Mama and Papa, the pumpkin peasants, were busy harvesting pumpkins. This particular family was very poor, except for one copper kaputnik Papa managed to hide from that greedy, sinister ruler Kubla Kraus, king of the Karsecks. Well instantly, Kubla rode up on his mechanical horse Claimstomper and stole Papa's kaputnik. But all was not lost, for soon they received a visit from Jack Frost, which meant snow and ice, which also meant...Ice money!

Cutting coins from icicles created ice money. For the entire duration of winter, the village was rich with ice money. (I wish we had a system like that). Nobody could see Jack Frost, but he liked to mingle with the townsfolk anyhow. He even used his magic powers to save the life of Elisa, the daughter of Mama and Papa, who was inches away from going over a water fall on a block of broken ice. She was actually in love with Jack Frost and, as soon as he heard, returned home to the clouds to see the ruler of it all: Father Winter. Jack told him he wanted to be human. Father Winter reluctantly agreed, and so Jack Frost could be human until the first day of spring, unless he were to accumulate four basic human necessities: a house for shelter, a horse, a bag of gold, and a wife, then he would be human forever. So Jack said goodbye to his friends: snowflake maker Snip, snow gypsy Holly, the hail persons, sleet sisters, and the rest, and then he headed for Earth and immediately ran into Elisa. He identified himself as Jack Snip, the tailor. Elisa brought him home to meet the family. The next day was Christmas day, and they really saved money on presents here, because they passed around one imaginary gift and each recipient imagined it to be the gift they had always wanted; Father Winter made Snip and Holly human also so they could keep an eye on Jack. Snip identified himself as Fernando Leonardi Dopopolopolis. That same day, a handsome young knight named Sir Ravenaugh stopped by, looking for a tailor to mend his cape. Elisa fell head over heels for him; Jack learns that obtaining a house, horse and gold would be difficult since Kubla Kraus owns all of them and wasn't about to give any of them up. Jack decided he had to over throw Kraus.

Meanwhile, Kubla Kraus set his sights on Elisa and, using his metal puppet and alter ego Dommy, managed to unsuccessfully woo her. He takes her back to his castle atop an icy, snowy mountain. He and his friends raced to Elisa's rescue. Now that he was human, Jack Frost had a harder time handling ice; Sir Ravenaugh rescued Elisa, while Jack, Snip and Holly were captured by Kubla Kraus' army of metallic knasty knights: Knute, Knick, Knorman, Knathan and the rest. They were imprisoned in Kraus' dungeon. They then overheard his plan to send 1,000 knights into January Junction and ransack the place. Jack had to do something, so he gave up his humanity to become Jack Frost again and cast a very fierce snow storm upon the town, keeping Kraus and his knights snowed in. And it worked. Until February when winter would have to end, depending on whether or not a groundhog was frightened by his shadow. Jack Frost made sure that he was, so winter would carry on another six weeks. But by April, winter definitely had to end, but Jack wanted another chance to be human. Father Winter granted it, until 12:00 noon. Jack raced to Kraus' castle and, imitating Dommy, managed to command the knights down the ice slope on the hill and become a heaping junk pile at the bottom. Father Winter makes short work of Kubla Kraus by blowing him away. Jack now had Kraus' castle, horse and gold for himself, but he needed a bride: Elisa, who at that moment was marrying Sir Ravenaugh! So, Jack Frost became his old shadow again and went back into the clouds...Until next winter. Narrated by Pardon-Me-Pete, the tale begins with Mama and Papa, two residents of the impoverished January Junction, having their last piece of currency stolen by the despotic Kublai Krauss, driving them into even further despair. Their daughter, Elisa,

Grandma Heilwig
Grandma Heilwig is a major character in a 2006 Verizon television advertisement. She is intended to represent an unapproachable, unfamiliar, and possibly unpleasant juxtaposition to the usual grandmother expected by the grandson, also in the television spot. During the sketch, the grandson enters a living room where his parent is decorating a seasonal tree. Surprised by the stout, foreign lady before him, he questions his parent regarding the location of his better known grandmother. His father explains that Grandma Heilwig is there instead, referencing their telephone service which is not Verizon. In the end, it seems that Grandma Heilwig is there because the presumably better grandmother cannot be reached without a great expense on Verizon's competitor's service plans.

Throughout the advertisement, with each reference to Grandma Heilwig, who the father calls Helwig following English pronunciation rules, the grandmother in question repeats her name in a foreign accent using a German pronunciation, approximately HYLE-VIK.

Grandma Heilwig has become an instant commercial success along the lines of such notables as the Budweiser frogs, the Geico gecko, the Taco Bell dog, Duke (the Bush's Baked Beans hound), and the previous Verizon recurring advertisement character, the "Can you hear me now?" guy.

There are now print advertisements featuring the irascible grandma.

Goldmann, Lucien (1913-1970)
Lucien Goldmann was a leading propnent of socialist humanism in post-World War II French intelletual life. Born in Bucharest, he grew up in Botosani, a Moldavian town in the northeastern part of Romania. At first he was a member of Hashomer Hatsair (the Young Guard), a left-wing Zionist youth movement. He became a committed Marxist, studied briefly with the Austrian Marxist Max Adler at the University of Vienna and then at the University of Bucharest Law School. In Bucharest, he was active in communist youth circles but came into conflict with them because of his opposition to Stalinism. Goldmann studied in Paris in the 1930s but with the Nazi onslaught he fled to Toulouse and then to Switzerland, where he spent the war years doing research with the eminent psychologist Jean Piaget and writing a doctorate for the University of Zurich on "Man, Community and the World in the Philosophy of Immanuel Kant." It became his first book. He returned to France after the war where he emerged as a a leading philosopher and sociologist of culture with books like "The Human Sciences and Philosophy" (1952) and especially "The Hidden God: A Study of Tragic Vision in the Pensees of Pascal and the Theater of Racine." In "The Hidden God" he tried to show how great cultural creation is the product of "transindividual subjects." More simply, he argued that the works of the philosopher Pascal and the playwright Racine were not just individual products, but articulated the "tragic world view" of a social stratum (the legal nobility of 17th century France) in crisis. Goldman's theories sought to synthesize the ideas of Hungarian Marxist Georg Lukacs with those of Piaget. The aspirations of socialist humanists, Goldmann argued, were a "wager" akin to that made by French philosopher Pascal in the existence of God. "Risk, possibility of failure, hope of success, and the synthesis of the three in a faith which is a wager are the essential constituent elements of the human condition," wrote Goldmann. He called his method "genetic structuralism" and "dialectical humanist". He opposed the increasing intellectual dominance of structuralism and post-modernism in the 1960s and was a strong critic of Michel Foucault as well as of Louis Althusser's structuralist Marxism. But their popularity largely eclipsed his work after his death. Goldmann's later books included "Recherches dialectiques" (Dialectical Quests" (1959), "Towards a Sociology of the Novel" (1964), "Cultural Creation in Modern Society." His posthumous works included "Lukacs and Heidegger"(1973) and Epistemologie et philosophie politique: Pour une theorie du liberte" (1978). In the 1950s and 1960s Goldmann warned that Marxism had become too dogmatic and rigid, and he became an advocate of a "liberal socialism." Rather than centralized planned economies, he advocated "workers's self-magangement" within a decentralized "market socialist economy."

Missbehave Magazine
Missbehave Magazine is a quarterly fashion magazine. Based in Brooklyn, New York, the magazine was founded in 2006 by the publishers of Mass Appeal Magazine.

Gayton McKenzie
Gayton McKenzie is a South African motivational speaker who came to public attention in 2002 when he and a small group of inmates smuggled secret video cameras into Grootvlei Prison in the Free State province.

The motivation for this was McKenzie's shock at witnessing the nine-hour rape of a fourteen year old white boy. McKenzie, who grew up during Apartheid, and was classified racially as a "coloured", had entered prison as a racist. This event, one of innumerable rapes that he witnessed during his more than seven years in jail, changed his view. Corrupt wardens, who had sold the boy to a rapist gang, told McKenzie that there was "not enough proof" to do anything about the rape. This was in spite of the boy's physical appearance.

McKenzie, who, until then had been a committed criminal, having entered jail for, among other crimes, bank robbery, and who was one of the prison's most senior gang members, turned his back on crime. The secret video footage showed numerous acts of warden corruption, including buying prison food, supplying drugs and liquor, smuggling a loaded pistol into jail and, finally, selling a juvenile for the purpose of sex to another prisoner, who was also part of the video team. When the footage hit national television, and was also screened on Oprah and elsewhere in Europe, McKenzie's team became knows as the "Grootvlei Four". They were subsequently victimised in prison, with several attempts made on their lives. Three of the four men (other video makers' identities had been successfully kept secret) were finally released from prison after obtaining remissions of sentence for their exposure work. McKenzie went on to marry Nicolett Joubert. She was an advocate he met while still in jail when she was sent by the South African Presidency as a member of the Jali Commission tasked with investigating corruption in South African prisons.

After his release he went on a national campaign to combat ever-higher levels of crime in South Africa. His talks to school children were sponsored by a security company, and he is still serving as an advocate against crime. Thus far, he has reached 1.6 million South African school children of all ages. He was also voted the country's top corporate speaker for the last three years.

<!--  Maulana Mustapha Raza Khan, commonly known among the Muslims of the Indian sub-continent as "Mufti-e-Azam Hind" was born in Bareilly (India) in 1892. His father, Moulana Ahmed Raza Khan (1856 - 1921) (radi Allahu anhu), and grandfather, Moulana Naqi Ali Khan (d. 1880) (radi Allahu anhu), were recognised as great scholars of Islam in Islamic academic circles all over the world.

Educational Background
He was born into a scholarly atmosphere. His family was reputed for its services in Islamic Traditional Sciences. His father especially, a "Mujaddid" of the 14th century A.H., is profoundly respected in the Muslim world for his struggle in social, political, educational nd spiritual fields for the resurgence of "Deen". Moulana Mustapha Raza Khan (radi Allahu anhu) completed his religious education under the guidance of his learned father as well as other great Ulema.

Academic Status
= Moulana Mustapha Raza Khan (radi Allahu anhu) was well versed in more than twenty branches of oriental learning, including Tafseer, Hadith, Fiqh, Sarf, Nahv, Tajweed, Balghat, Tassawuf, Mantiq, Seerah, Tareekh, Kalam, Aqa'id, Reyazvi, Touqeet, Jafar and Hayat.

Sufism (Bai'ah):=
He was a Shaikh of the Qadriya order. His own spiritual guide, Shaik Shah Abul Hussain Noori (1839-1906) (radi Allahu anhu), of Mahrehra Shareef (India) was a great Sufi and spiritual guide. It is estimated that nearly ten million Muslims received spiritual guidance from Huzoor Mufti-e-Azam Hind (radi Allahu anhu).

Pilgrimage (Visit to Haramain Sharifain)
He visited Haramain three times. During his two pilgrimages in 1905 and 1945, photographs were not introduced for the Haj journey. But on his last visit in 1971, although visa and passport photographs were introduced, he was given special permission to travel to Saudi Arabia without providing his photograph for passport or visa by the governments of India and Saudi Arabia. This event showed the strict adherence of Huzoor Mufti-e-Azam Hind (radi Allahu anhu) to the Shariah.

A Great Mufti and Faqih
He started issuing Fatawa while he was only a boy of 13 years old. His first Fatawa was on "Raza'ah". At the age of 13 he became a recognised "Mufti" and it is estimated that he issued more than 50 000 Fatawas during his lifetime. All the contemporary Ulema and Fuqaha respected his opinion on current issues and accepted his Fatawa as the most reliable religious verdict in the sub-continent. Collections of his Fatawa have been published in Urdu in two volumes under the title Fatawa Mustafawiya.

As a Teacher
He started teaching in Jamia Manzare Islam, Bareilly in 1910. He served in this prominent institution for a period of about 27 years. He was a proficient scholar of Hadith and Fiqh. Several famous Islamic teachers of the sub-continent who were his pupils went on later to teach in the prominent Darul Ulooms of India and Pakistan. Some of them are: Moulana Sardar Ahmed Razvi, Moulana Ejaz Wali Khan, Moulana Hashmat Ali Khan and Moulana Mufti Shareef-ul-Haq. Hundreds of his students are serving all over the sub-continent and other parts of the world as Heads of Religious Institutions and Muslim organisations.

As an Author
In spite of his round the year journeys all over India, and his deep commitment to his Central Darul Ifta, he wrote many books and commentaries on some of the books of Fatawa and Fiqh. It is estimated that he has left about 40 books on a variety of subjects and important issues. He followed the methodology of his great father in his writings. His style was straight and clear. He was very bold and strong while expressing his views and presenting his ideas. His books mainly consists of refutations against the invalid views and heretical ideas of deviant sects and groups of the Ummah. He mainly targeted Wahabi institutions in the sub-continent.

As a Religious Leader
He offered a dignified and powerful leadership to Muslims throughout his life. He was a man of principle and high morals. He never agreed to such proposals or plans that might harm the interests of the Muslim Ummah, and he never remained silent on such occasions when the reputation of Islam and Muslims came under threat. He was at the forefront during the movement to restore the Shahid Ganj Mosque at Lahore in 1935 and declared that participation in this movement was Fard for Muslims. Similarly in 1976 when the programme of compulsory sterilization Vasectomy was forced upon Muslims along with other Indian communities, by the Central Government of India, Mufti-e-Azam Hind (radi Allahu anhu) was the only Muslim leader to oppose the campaign vigorously and publicly. He issued his Fatawa against the government and arranged its distribution all over India. At that time he took all the possible risks and proved to be a practical leader of Muslims and a true servant of Islam and lover of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam).

Demise
He passed away on the eve of the 14th of Muharram 1402 A.H. in Bareilly Shareef. It was estimated that over two and a half million Muslims from all over the world attended his funeral prayer. He is buried in Bareilly Shareef beside his father, A'la Hazrat, Imam Ahmed Raza Khan (radi Allahu anhu). His Urs Shareef is held every year in Bareilly Shareef and in various other countries around the globe. He left behind six daughters and one son. His son, Hazrat Anwar Raza (radi Allahu anhu), passed away during childhood.

Likeaball
Who are the Likeaballs? The Likeaballs are a team of animated footy-nutty cartoon characters who are really 'ball-shaped-aliens' from another world. The Likeaballs were created by Jim Quick. The Likeballs is intended for kids that are between 6 and 11 years old anywhere in the world that have a sense of humour. The Likeaballs deals with issues that really matter to kids - such as anti-racism, and bullying. the Likeaballs champion the importance of teamwork in real life. The Likeaballs have been adopted by the FA Premier League as their official cartoon.

The LIKEABALLS' headquarters is a huge spaceship called BALL CONTROL. Weirdly, it bigger inside than out. Unlike the first one they built - which was tiny inside and huge outside. The error occurred when the 4-D holographic plans were drawn inside-out.

The DISLIKEABALLS HQ is a huge spaceship which is a giant screw - called a 'Screwship'.

The Likeaballs are led by their Captain, Kickaball, they are famous all over the galaxy - but they have enemies too.

There is the mysterious T.H.R.A.A.P.F. (The Human Race Against Aliens Playing Football), a bumbling group of ne'er-do-wells who hate any aliens that play football.

Then there are the Dislikeaballs - ball-shaped-aliens from the same planet as The Likeaballs but these guys are really bad....and they fart. A very unpleasant bunch. Lead by the evil Count Horriball, the Dislikeaballs will do anything in the world to beat Team Likeaball - at anything. They hate them being the best. No matter how much the Dislikeaballs cheat and plot they can never be victorious - as they cannot work together as a team - and that's their biggest problem.

Every Likeaball has their own strengths and their own weaknesses, but by working closely together as a team they figure-out answers to every challenge that come their way.

MEET THE TEAMS

TEAM LIKEABALL'

Kickaball - is the Captain of Team Likeaball. He is always ready to lead the team to victory whether on the pitch, or off in an alien space battle. Kickaball is a master at keeping up morale - everyone’s that is except his own. It’s tough at the top and being captain is not an easy job. Especially when Knowledgeaball seems smarter than you, Invinciball more powerful and Adoraball so much cuter. Even when he’s mistreated, Kickaball always sees the best in everyone and is full of encouragement for those around him. His biggest problem is self-doubt at times of great stress. His greatest skill is pulling together a team who are all so different and getting each player to contribute in the best way they can. No wonder he’s captain – he’s so likeable!

Manageaball - is an organiser and a passionate one at that. She likes to keep everything and everyone in order. As her name implies she is the team manager and is rarely off the phone. She wants to be in control of everything and can get impatient with Kickaball’s patience, when he is trying to be sensitive with upset players. As far as Manageaball is concerned everything should have been done yesterday. Likely to be found pacing the sidelines and shouting complaints at the players, the referee, the fans, anyone! She does get carried away sometimes, but she always tries to pull herself back together and be polite. Manners are important to her, they’re just hard to remember.

Invinciball - is a bit of a superhero. Unfortunately he’s so full of himself that he could use a little deflating from time to time. He is a fantastic player, but with an ego to match. Invinciball has a tendency to think he’s the only player on the pitch or at least the only one that matters. But his strength can be his weakness too, since he has been known to knock his mates out of the way as he powers his way towards the goalmouth, oblivious to those in his path. He has another weakness too. He can’t stand criticism. Luckily he has a shield to protect him from it. But take away that shield and subject him to criticism and he shrinks and finally transforms into his poor, useless, feeble alter-ego – the very tiny one they call, Forgetaball!

Knowledgeaball - is the brainiest of the Likeaballs and an inventor too. He always puts his mind to solving the problem, but that doesn’t mean he always comes up with the right answer. Even brainy people can make mistakes and sometimes Knowledgeaball gets so caught up in the details of a new invention that he forgets what he was inventing it for. But sometimes a brainy solution can come in very handy, especially when you’ve just lost the ball and two players in a black hole, or you can’t work out how to defeat a team of powerful robots without a lot of rewiring. At times like that a little knowledge can go a long way and a lot of knowledge might even save the day!

Fashionaball - is obsessed with fashion. She is always trying out new styles to look even cooler and trendier than before. She loves having her picture taken more than anything and is quite convinced she should be famous. She will stop play to rearrange her jacket or fix her hair and has been known to call time-out for a shoe injury. But fashion isn’t only about what you wear it’s about how you handle yourself too. Being cool is more important to Fashionaball than anything.

Laughaball - is a joker. He tries to see the comic possibilities in everything and always wants to make people laugh. When the team is down a good laugh can be a great pick-me-up, but when there are serious problems Laughaball just doesn’t seem to have the right attitude. But Laughaball is a very enthusiastic team player. He loves everyone and only wants to be loved back. His feelings can be hurt easily. There’s nothing sadder than the tears of a clown, but he is also quick to cheer up again. He doesn’t mind laughing at his own jokes!

Adoraball - is cute and she knows it. She likes to play the innocent one and can be very beguiling. Invinciball will do anything for her and she can charm most of the Dislikeaballs too. She likes to act helpless and shy, but in fact is quite capable of impressive feats of action from time to time, which surprise everyone and about which she just shrugs, smiles and blushes.

Believeaball - is very honest. She never tells a lie, but she can’t keep a secret either. This is something that you have to be very careful about. If she knows too much and she meets the Dislikeaballs she’ll tell them everything. Luckily she is an amazing striker and some of her goals are truly unbelievable! Disguiseaball is a master of disguise, a shape shifter, a morph! He can change into anything from a rooster to a chair, a computer to a dinosaur, but certain characteristic features always remains – his distinctive sunglasses, big red nose and moustache. Some things just aren’t easy to hide.

Reverseaball - has two faces - and not only that, him-and-him are joined at the seam like Siamese siblings, Reverseaball doesn’t always know whether he’s coming or going. Talk about sibling rivalry – Reverseaball is always torn about what to do. Two heads aren’t always better than one.

Inflateaball - the team’s goalie. A great big balloon of a player that can inflate to order. The only problem is he can’t hold his inflated position for very long. Then he’s off - all around the place.

Stretchaball - she’s one of the best footballers. Capable of changing shape in an elastic manner. She can be twisted – but she’s not bitter.

Collectaball she collects anything – from cats’ fur-balls to atomic clocks. She knows all there is to know about – Stuff!

TEAM DISLIKEABALL

Count Horriball - is the leader of the Dislikeaballs. He insists that he’s not just a captain, but the only Leader in town and is of the firm belief that everyone should bow down before him. He carries a cane to make himself look important but the cane is a ‘mini-me’ version of the Count, called Mutiny, Mutiny spends his time arguing and criticizing the Count, but it is a love-hate relationship.

Combustaball - has a fiery temper. In fact she has a fiery everything, fire exuding from chimneys on her head. She leaves a scorch on the pitch and gets angry about everything. If she could only cool down a little she might have a lot to offer, being a passionate player, but she has a very short fuse and gets inflamed about the tiniest thing. The rest of the Dislikeaballs dare not complain unless they end up roasted too.

Destructaball - is not too bright, but he’s very big and he’s hard too – being made of iron like a wrecking ball. The last thing anyone wants is to bump into Destructaball. Being rolled over by him isn’t much fun either. Destructaball is usually very obedient and wants to please Count Horriball, but he does have a soft side and he feels bad if anyone gets hurt. Destructaball can actually be very sweet. In fact if Count Horriball would only stop shouting at him and let him make up his own mind he’d probably in his heart of hearts like to be a Likeaball.

Disagreeaball - doesn’t like to be told what to do. Whatever she is told she prefers to do the opposite and at least argue about it. In fact arguing is her favourite pastime. If you say black she’ll say white if you say go left she’ll go right. She just enjoys being difficult far too much to do things any other way. But the Likeaballs know her only too well and she can be rather easy to fool. By pretending they don’t want her to do something they want her to do they can make her do almost anything at all! Stealaball doesn’t believe in possessions. As far as he’s concerned everything belongs to him or at least it ought to. He can’t help taking things and steals indiscriminately. The problem is that not being able to have something only makes Stealaball want it even more.

Disposeaball - is pretty disgusting. He is a foul smelling, foul acting slob. He wastes everything and throws it on the floor. He is not only the biggest litterbug in the universe, but also a slob. She always looks like she rolled through something disgusting, but hygiene is not exactly one of her big concerns. Loves eating from garbage tips. He’ll also eat your furniture if you’re not careful.

Miseraball - is just a very grumpy dislikeaball. She drags her heel and hangs her head and just looks fed up all the time. It drives Laughaball nuts. He’d love just once to be able to make her laugh. But so far, no joy! She’s a ball in a rut. Uncontrollaball is a complete and utter lunatic. A wild and crazy ball with a mind of his own or maybe no mind at all. Think Tasmanian Devil, but without the relaxing rest periods in-between. Deflateaball is really mean. His nose and his fingers are lethal weapons – long and sharp – he loves sticking it into other people’s business not to mention their backsides. He loves taking the wind out of things. The Likeaballs have to be very wary when Deflateaball’s around.

PAM and DAN - An ubiquitous pair of Human TV rolling Newscasters. Pam and Dan follow both the Dislikeaballs and Likeaballs adventures. Pam is the smart one – and Dan, well - Dan’s the Man! Not only can they can view any Likeaballs’ situation through unseen wormhole ‘cameras’, they can converse with anyone at the same time. Nothing is secret from Pan and Dan. The only unknown is, do they hate each other or are they smitten? They provide the narrative that drives - and sometimes explains, the storyline.

THRAAPF - stands for The Humourless Race Against Aliens Playing Football. They are a Shadowy Organisation of Earthlings that hates any alien playing the beautiful game, and in particular, ball-shaped aliens. So they are dedicated to ridding Planet Earth of the Likeaballs…..Scary! Fortunately, they are also bumbling and ineffectual.

Goethe-Medaille für Kunst und Wissenschaft
The "Goethe-Medaille für Kunst und Wissenschaft" (Goethe-Medal for Art and Science) was a German award. It consists of a silver, non-wearable medal (62mm, after about 1938 69.5mm in diameter) which was authorized by Reichspresident Paul von Hindenburg to commemorate the centenary of Johann Wolfgang von Goethe's death on March 22, 1932. This medal should not be confused with the "Goethe-Medaille in Gold" (Goethe-Medal in Gold) of the Weimar Goethe Society (51 awards from 1910 to 2005), the "Goethepreis der Stadt Frankfurt" (Goethe Prize of the City of Frankfurt) which since 1927 has been awarded first annually, then triennially (41 awards from 1927 to 2005 - no medal), the "Goethe-Plakette der Stadt Frankfurt" (Goethe Plaque of the City of Frankfurt), or the "Goethe-Medaille" (Goethe-Medal) of the Goethe-Institut, which from 1955 to 2006 has been awarded to 312 personalities from 57 countries. With more than 600 recipients is the "Goethe-Medaille für Kunst und Wissenschaft" the most widely distributed award named after Goethe.

UNDER HINDENBURG - 1932-1934

Originally meant to honor persons who had performed some service in connection with the 1932 Goethe Memorial Service at Weimar, the "Goethe-Medaille für Kunst und Wissenschaft" was since April 1932 in Hindenburg's name given to Goethe-scholars, artists, scientists, government officials and politicians. Between March 18, 1932 and June 19, 1934 almost 200 persons were honored, 159 of these before January 30, 1933. Among the first 55 recipients of the Medal were Chancellor Brüning, and the Nobel Prize winners Gerhart Hauptmann and Thomas Mann. Starting in April 1932 there followed Max Planck and the current or future Nobel Prize bearers Nikolas Murray Butler, André Gide, Knut Hamsun, Verner von Heidenstam, Gugliemo Marconi, Albert Schweitzer, Fritz Haber and Richard Willstätter. Other recipients were Benito Musolini, José Ortega y Gasset, Wilhelm Furtwängler, Otto Klemperer, Carl Goerdeler, Paul Ernst, Hans Grimm and E.G. Kolbenheyer. About one quarter of the honorees of the "Goethe-Medaille für Kunst und Wissenschaft" before July 1934 were non-Germans. Women were rarely considered; only Ricarda Huch, Agnes Miegel, Ina Seidel, Feodora, Grand Duchess of Saxon-Weimar, Enrica von Handel-Mazetti and the Turkish writer Seniha Bedri were apparently thought to be worthy of the Medal. In Hindenburg´s name this medal was last awarded under the date of June 19, 1934.

UNDER HITLER - 1935-1944

Beginning in 1935, Adolf Hitler, in his position as German Head of State, took over the awarding of the "Goethe-Medaille für Kunst und Wissenschaft". At the time of writing, the names of about 270 of the estimated 400 recipients of the Medal between 1935 and 1944 are known to the present author. Among them are the Nobel Prize winners Hans von Euler-Chelpin, Johannes Stark and Heinrich Wieland as well as five women: Anna Bahr-Mildenburg, Hedwig Bleibtreu, Agnes Bluhm, Isolde Kurz, and Lulu von Strauß und Torney. Under Hitler the Medal was generally awarded only on high birthdays or other important anniversaries. Many of the recipients were followers of National Socialism. Jewish candidates were no longer considered (until January 1933 at least eleven Germans of Jewish origin had been honored by Hindenburg with the Medal, although Albert Einstein was ignored). The last "Goethe-Medaille für Kunst und Wissenschaft" was awarded in November 1944.

Red Road (Glasgow)
The Red Road estate in Barmulloch, Glasgow consists of eight high rise tower blocks. Six of these high flats are 31 storeys high and the other two are 27 storeys high. In 1969, when the first residents arrived in their new homes, the Red Road was the tallest housing estate in Europe(although it did not contain the tallest residential flats in Glasgow. Bluevale Street and Whitevale Street in Parkhead hold that title) and contains over 1200 flats. The flats are currently marked for demolition.

Conception and Construction

At the time of their conception in the early 1960s, they were built to re-house Glaswegians living in the inner-city slums such as Gorbals and Townhead while also attempting to appeal to middle-class people wishing to sample "the high life".

Although the construction of tower blocks throughout the city was widespread, the construction of the Red Road was controversial not only because of its height and density, but it involved the first high-rises in Europe to be made using a steel frame rather than the common-place, brutalist concrete frame. The flats were also given a corrugated steel exterior as the architects were far sighted enough to know that as the decades past, fashions would change. Therefore, to ensure their creation would remain stylish, this steel shell could be easily removed and replaced by different colours or materials to match whatever was in vogue at the time. This showed that the Red Road was planned to remain part of the Glasgow skyline beyond the foreseeable future.

Problems

However, the flats were poorly designed and residents had to cope with the typical grievances of living in a tower block. Elevators were frequently out of use, virtually making the residents on the higher levels house-bound, especially the elderly. Dampness in the flats brought with it a series of problems such as mould and also was detrimental to the respiritory system, leading to some cases of residents developing asthma. A criticism of the location of Barmulloch was that it was too far the city centre to be desirable to the middle-classes that the Glasgow Housing Association(GHA) were hoping to attract. This meant that some tenants lived there not because they wanted to, but because they had to. This became more and more widespread in the Red Road as the flats decayed. The high concentration of poverty led to crime levels soaring and the flats reputation as a dangerous place to live rising. The lack of amenities such as shopping and leisure also contributed to unrest among tenants as they became disillusioned with their homes. Isolation was also an issue. Uprooted from their former communities around the city centre, separated from their families and friends and with few pubs and chances to socialise with their neighbours, many tenants became unhappy, some even to the point of mental illness.

Decline The GHA recieved complaints about the Red Road from unhappy residents as early as 1972. By 1975, vandalism and poor living conditions were becoming serious problems and only 7 years into the Red Road's life, some flats were becoming uninhabitable. In 1980, two of the blocks were deemed uninhabitable for living in as the estate prematurely fell into disrepair. The GHA made renovations to the flats in the 80s however much of this work was undone following a series of disruptive residents and the infectious decline the estate was in.

End In 2005, the GHA announced that the "village in the sky" was to be demolished along with many more of Glasgow's high rise homes. 153/183/213 Petershill Drive (one of the 27 storey squat blocks) is expected to be the first to be razed to the ground in 2009 and the rest is expected to join it by 2015. Glasgow's skyline will likely never be the same again. However, a sizable number still live in the flats (including asylum seekers) and the GHA will break up what has developed into a strong community, after a hostile start, once more.

Britt B

Britt B of bloomington MN has gained much reknown for being the most kick ass person alive today. Her outright stench of sexuality drives most men to their knees within seconds. She also is very talented, creative, and intelligent. Historians with knowledge on the subject would equate her to the holy trinity except better because shes so freaking sexy. The holy trinity shares power whereas britt's power is all encompassing and omnipotent. Though, most scientists believe she uses a flow chart going in this order (1) Britt B (2) Britt Jr (3) her boyfriend. as a means to establish rank and power. While most scientists question what her boyfriend is even doing on this chart, there are sources from high atop the mountain that it was at the omnipotent ones request. Her name is synonimous with excellence or being number 1. It can be used in many different ways. Example 1)Wow! i really pulled a britt b today when i aced that test. Example 2)Wow! janie you really look britt b in that dress. Example 3)"We are the britt B's" as recorded by noted recording artists queen. Some speculate that with a little bit of working every known word in the english dictionary or vocabulary.  So if you your are in bloomington, minnesota, or her boyfiends apartment and you happen to cross her path Bow Down muthaphucker!

The Public Health Act of 1875
24.186.43.153 20:35, 19 December 2006 (UTC)Briana Wallace

The Public Health Act was established In 1875in Britian due to horrendous living conditions. Urban reformers made this act to remodel filthy living conditions which caused the spread of many diseases. Also the reformers were looking to correct mnay sanitary problems such as the internal sewage of living quarters. The act prohibitted the construction of new buildings without an internal drainage system or even running water. This act also lead to governement involvement. Due to the government involvement, poor contractors couldnt make "shoddy" housing quarters anymore.

Olympus C-2100 UZ Camera
The Olympus C-2100 UZ was a revolutionary digital camera at its time, closely paired with it's brother the E-100 RS. Both of these cameras are nearly identical, except that the RS has lower resolution but can shoot an amazing 15 frames per second. Even six years later, this is still the fastest camera produced.

Both of these cameras are note worthy because they're the only compact digital cameras ever produced by a company other than Canon, using a Canon lens. ( Both cameras have a 10x zoom, ranging from 38 to 380 mm eq. ) In fact, these were the first compact digital cameras to offer image stabilization by several years. "IS" has become popular and is now built into many cameras.
