When it comes to food, Germans don't let go of a good thing. For example, what has turned into Munich's Octoberfest was just supposed to be an outdoor wedding reception for the Crown Prince on October 12, 1810. People had so much fun there, though, they came back to the site the next year and partied, and the next year, and the next..and it goes on still.
The history of German cooking and baking is like that, too: full of good things that have been discovered and enjoyed over a period of time that goes back to the Middle Ages. While this cuisine has deep roots in regional and European history, the people's delight in fresh, delicious food of all sorts has also kept it modern and varied down through the ages.
♦ To the manor born
What we call Germany today climbs up from a lowland plain near the Baltic and North seas, through the hills and fertile valleys of central Germany, until it reaches the foothills and rugged Alpine regions of the south. People have lived here for thousands of years, first in tribes and then in a patchwork of small kingdoms that finally became one under the Franks and eventually turned into the Holy Roman Empire, as the German state was known in the Middle Ages.
Medieval people had a feudal society, and it wasn't a bad place for some: kings and nobles lived the good life and held many huge feasts. The cool climate of the northern coastal region made hearty meals and soups popular, and there was also plenty of fresh seafood and herring available, as well as roast fowl. Rye and oats were grown to make dense, rich breads.
In contrast, the central region had orchards, vineyards and fertile farmlands. It was also an ideal place to raise livestock, and the area became famous for the quality of its meat, particularly the hams of Westphalia and a variety of sausages. Wheat as well as rye grew there, and the area also was known for its special baked goods like stollen and spicy cookies.
The mountainous southland was good for dairy herds, and many grains could be grown there for a rich variety of breads and baked goods, as well as for brewing beer and ale. Wild game was plentiful in the forests, and the Mosel and Rhine river valleys provided perfect environments for wine making.
♦ Everybody else gets by
Things were not so pleasant for those at the other end of the feudal system. Serfs, villeins, and free peasants ate whatever they could grow or gather during the little spare time was available to them. This included barley, rye, and oats, as well as lots of red cabbage, apples and beets in the north; the same thing, as well as turnips, sugar beets, and pears in the central region; and the south also had a wide variety of fruit.
Game was plentiful everywhere, but only kings and nobles could hunt it. Commoners could fish from some local streams and raise livestock, and they could make bread, but they had to pay the lord of the manor for use of his oven (home baking was forbidden by law).
Overall, their diet was meager and not at all rich, but they got by, using "maische," or mash, a boiled mixture of grain, bran, meal, etc., as a filler.
♦ The Ashkenazi Jews
There was also a demographic group that lived outside of the medieval German feudal system. Since at least the early 400s, many Jewish communities had thrived in the region, especially in the Rhine valley. "Ashkenaz" was the medieval Hebrew name for Germany as it was then, and its people were the Ashkenazim, or German Jews.
They adapted the old High German into their Hebrew language and called it Yiddish. They shared many of the same foods, as far as kosher laws would allow: no pork, but plenty of pickled herring, horseradish, rye breads, vegetable soups, strudel, cakes, and even a treat that is still around today—one that you might be snacking on right now.
More types of foods were boiled in medieval times, including some breads. There are those who claim that a stirrup-shaped bread, which was boiled before it was baked, was called a "beigl" in Yiddish after the German word for stirrup, "Steigbügel." Try to imagine a mounted Teutonic knight in full panoply, the next time you're spreading cream cheese over your bagel!
♦ Times a'changing
The Renaissance ushered in greater power for cities, and in those cities a variety of craft guilds formed, including a number of cooking and baking guilds. A new "middle" class also appeared, and it took on some of the elaborate cooking styles of the royals and nobility while keeping the best of its own heritage of peasant cooking and baking.
Then, in the 16th century, the potato arrived from the New World. At first, Germans didn't care much for it, but it was just as filling as maische and much more tasty and versatile. Soon its popularity soared, and today it's difficult to imagine what German cooking would be like without the potato.
There had always been a French influence in the southern region, and this increased during the social and political changes Europe went through in the mid to late 18th century. Then Napoleon attacked in 1806, and for seven years Germany was part of the French Empire. The "Little General" brought in his own chefs but hired Germans to assist them, and these native chefs carried the French cooking style throughout the land after the conquerors left.
In 1871, a unified Germany appeared for the very first time. Industrialization increased over the following decades, and the country went to war twice in the 20th century, with disastrous results each time. At the end of World War II, Germany had its "Zero Hour," with people having to make do with less than 800 calories a day, mostly from cabbage, potatoes and bread.
Recovery happened slowly. Some 12 million Germans were expelled from formerly occupied countries in Europe, bringing back with them a variety of cooking styles and food preferences. As prosperity returned, Middle Eastern "guest workers" arrived, and a new flavor was added to the complex blend of food and style that modern German cooking had become.
♦ Old and new
Today, the most popular fast food in Germany may be döner kebab, a Turkish specialty, but old favorites are still around: some restaurants devote their entire menus to white asparagus (spargel) when it's in season, and meat still figures prominently in all meals, including breakfast. At the same time, the country has the highest number of three-star restaurants in the world, outside of France, and Michelin recently gave 26 restaurants in Germany their first star, including a Japanese restaurant in Dusseldorf.
German cooking and baking has deep roots and yet always tastes new and fresh. The latest trends of today's food world are found in German kitchens and restaurants alongside the old favorites that are being enjoyed by a new generation for the very first time.

Charles I (1288 – 16 July 1342), also known as Charles Robert (Caroberto) (Hungarian: Károly Róbert), was the first King of Hungary and Croatia (1308–42) of the House of Anjou.[1] He also descended from the old Hungarian Árpád dynasty. His claim to the throne of Hungary was contested by several pretenders. Nevertheless, although he was only a child when his grandfather, King Charles II of Naples sent him to Hungary in 1300, Charles would strengthen his rule in the kingdom against his opponents and the powerful magnates following a long series of internal struggles. Charles also carried out numerous important political and economical reforms: he established the so-called honor system which made the powerful barons dependent of his favour, and he introduced new coins with a consistently high purity of gold. Charles's foreign policy largely stemmed from dynastic alliances. His most successful achievement was the mutual defense union with Poland and Bohemia against the Habsburgs. Charles also endeavoured to enforce his or his descendants' claim to the Kingdom of Naples, but he could achieve only sham results. Nevertheless, he was one of the most successful rulers of the Kingdom of Hungary whose efforts established his successor's achievements.

Early years[edit]
Childhood (1288–1300)[edit]
He was the only son of Charles Martel, Prince of Salerno, the firstborn son of Charles II of Naples, and his wife Klementia, a daughter of King Rudolph I of Germany.[2][3] He was born in 1288, but the place of his birth is unknown.[2][3][4] His paternal grandmother, Mary, was a daughter of Stephen V of Hungary.[5][6] After the death of her brother, Ladislaus IV of Hungary, in 1290, she declared that the House of Árpád, the first royal family of Hungary, became extinct on the male line.[7] She also announced her claim to the throne against Andrew III of Hungary,[7] who had been crowned king on 23 July.[8] She renounced her claim to Hungary to her firstborn son, Charles Martel, in January 1292.[9] He was supported by the Babonići, the Frankopans, the Šubići and other Croatian and Slavonian noble families, but they frequently changed sides.[10][11] Charles Martel could never assert his claim to Hungary.[11]
Charles Martel died in autumn 1295 and the seven-year-old Charles inherited his father's claim to Hungary.[12][4] In accordance with the principles of primogeniture, Charles would have been the heir apparent to his grandfather, Charles II of Naples, but both his grandfather and Pope Boniface VIII preferred his uncle, Robert.[12][13] Charles II declared that Robert were to be considered as his firstborn son on 13 February 1296.[14] Pope Boniface confirmed this decision on 27 February 1296, excluding Charles from inheriting the throne of the Kingdom of Naples.[14] Remarks by Dante Alighieri, Giovanni Villani and other contemporaneous authors prove that "public opinion tended to favor" Charles's claim to Naples over his uncle's even thereafter, according to historian Samantha Kelly.[15] For instance, Dante wrote of "the schemes and frauds that would attack"[16] Charles Martel's seed.[15]
Struggle for Hungary (1300–1308)[edit]
The Croatian lord, Paul Šubić, dispatched his brother, George, to Rome and Naples.[17] He convinced Charles II of Naples to send his grandson to Hungary.[17] Charles II borrowed 1,300 ounce gold from Florentine bankers to finance Charles's journey.[9][18] The twelfe-year-old Charles disembarked in Split in August 1300.[9][19] Paul Šubić escorted Charles to Zagreb where Ugrin Csák swore loyalty to the young pretender.[20] Andrew III of Hungary, died on 14 January 1301.[21] Charles hastened to Esztergom where the Archbishop-elect, Gregory Bicskei, put a provisional crown on his head before 13 May.[22][23] The ceremony was not performed in accordance with tradition, and most Hungarians considered it unlawful, because a legitimate coronation should have been taken place in Székesfehérvár with the Holy Crown of Hungary, but Charles counted his regnal years from this event.[22][20]
Actually, Hungary disintegrated into about a dozen independent provinces, which were ruled by powerful barons, after the death of Andrew III.[24][25] For instance, Matthew Csák dominated the northwestern parts of Hungary (the eastern territories of present-day Slovakia), Amadeus Aba ruled over the northeastern lands, Ivan Kőszegi controlled Transdanubia, and Ladislaus Kán governed Transylvania.[26] Most lords opposed Charles's rule and proposed the crown to the son of Wenceslaus II of Bohemia, Wenceslaus, who had been betrothed to Elisabeth, the only daughter of Andrew III.[6][27] They preferred the young Wenceslaus to Charles because they feared that "the free men of the kingdom should lose their freedom by accepting a king appointed by the Church",[28] according to the Illuminated Chronicle.[29] Wenceslaus was crowned king with the Holy Crown of Hungary in Székesfehérvár, but the ceremony was performed by John Hont-Pázmány, Archbishop of Kalocsa, instead of the Archbishop of Esztergom.[23] Charles withdrew from the central territories of the kingdom to the domains of Ugrin Csák.[30] Pope Boniface sent his legate, Niccolo Boccasini, who convinced most Hungarian prelates to accept Charles's reign.[30]
Charles laid siege to Buda, the capital of the kingdom, in September 1302, but Iván Kőszegi relieved the town.[23] Charles's charters show that he primarily stayed in the southern parts of the kingdom in the next years, but he also visited Amadeus Aba in the fortress of Gönc.[31] Pope Boniface declared Charles as the lawful king of Hungary on 31 May 1303.[32] His opponent, Wenceslaus left Hungary in summer 1304, taking the Holy Crown of Hungary with him.[30] Charles met his cousin, Rudolph III of Austria, in Pressburg (now Bratislava in Slovakia) on 24 August.[30][33] They concluded an alliance against Wenceslaus and invaded Bohemia in autumn, but they achieved nothing.[30][34]
Wenceslaus renounced his claim to Hungary in favor of Otto III, Duke of Bavaria on 9 October 1305.[35] Otto was crowned with the Holy Crown in Székesfehérvár on 6 December by Benedict Rád, Bishop of Veszprém, and Anton, Bishop of Csanád, but he could not strengthen his position.[35][36][34] Charles seized Esztergom and many fortresses in the northern parts of Hungary (now in Slovakia) in 1306.[37][34] His partisans also occupied Buda in June 1307.[37] In short, Ladislaus Kán seized and imprisoned Charles's opponent, Otto, in Transylvania.[35][38] An assembly of Charles's partisans confirmed Charles's claim to the throne on 10 October, but three of the most powerful lords—Matthew Csák, Ladislaus Kán, and Ivan Kőszegi—were absent.[37][34] Next year Ladislaus Kán released Otto of Bavaria.[38] Although Otto never ceased styling himself King of Hungary, he never returned to the country.[37]
Pope Clement V appointed a new papal legate, Gentile Partino da Montefiore, who arrived in summer 1308.[37][39] He conducted negotiations with the Hungarian lord, persuading them one by one to accept Charles's rule.[37] A new Diet held at the Dominican monastery of Pest, where Matthew Csák and Ladislaus Kán were also represented, unanimously proclaimed Charles Robert king on 27 November.[39][40]
Wars against the oligarchs (1308–1323)[edit]
The synod of the Hungarian prelates, which was convoked by the papal legate, declared the monarch inviolable in December 1308.[39][40] They also urged Ladislaus Kán to hand the Holy Crown over to Charles.[40] Ladislaus Kán did not obey and the papal legate consencrated a new crown for Charles.[39] Thomas II, Archbishop of Esztergom crowned Charles king with the new crown in the Church of Our Lady (now Matthias Church) in Buda on 15 or 16 June 1309.[39][41] However, Charles's subjects considered his second coronation invalid.[37] The papal legate excommunicated Ladislaus Kán who finally agreed to hand the Holy Crown over to Charles.[39] Charles's third coronation was performed in full accordance with tradition on 27 August 1310: the Archbishop of Esztergom put the Holy Crown on his head in Székeshehérvár.[37][42][41]
Charles's rule was only nominal in most parts of his kingdom.[37] For instance, Matthew Csák laid siege Buda in June 1311 and Ladislaus Kán denied to assist the king.[43][42] Charles sent an army against Matthew Csák in September, but it achieved nothing against the powerful lord.[44] On the other hand, the death of Ugrin Csák in the same year enabled Charles to take possession of his domains between Požega in Slavonia and Temesvár (now Timișoara in Romania).[45][46] The burghers of Kassa (now Košice in Slovakia) assassinated Amadeus Aba in September 1311.[47] Charles's envoys arbitrated an agreement between his family and the town, which also prescribed that the Abas should withdraw from two counties and allow the noblemen inhabiting their domains to freely join the monarch.[47] However, Amadeus Aba's sons soon entered into an alliance with Matthew Csák against the king.[45] The united forces of the Abas and Matthew Csák besieged Kassa, but Charles routed them in the Battle of Rozgony (now Rozhanovce in Slovakia) on 15 June 1312.[48][41] Almost half of the noblemen who had served the deceased Amadeus Aba fought on Charles's side in the battle.[49] In the following months, Charles captured the Abas' many fortresses in Abaúj, Torna and Sáros counties, including Füzér, Regéc, and Munkács (now Mukacheve in Ukraine).[50] He waged war against Matthew Csák, captured Nagyszombat (now Trnava in Slovakia) in 1313, and Visegrád in 1315, but could not win a decisive victory.[45]
Charles transferred his residence from Buda to Temesvár, which was surrounded by marshes, in early 1315.[51][45] Ladislaus Kán died in 1315, but his sons continued to fight against Charles.[52][43] Charles launched a campaign against the Kőszegis in Transdanubia and Slavonia in the first half of 1316.[53][54] Masses of local noblemen joined the royal troops, which contributed to the quick collapse of the Kőszegis' rule in southern parts of their domains.[53] In the eastern parts of the kingdom, James Borsa made an alliance with Ladislaus Kán's sons and other lords and offered the crown to Andrew of Galicia.[53][43] Charles' troops, which were under the command of a former supporter of the Borsas, Dózsa Debreceni, defeated the united troops of Borsa and his allies at Debrecen at the end of June.[54][55] The royal troops captured the rebellious lords' many fortresses in Bihar, Szolnok, Borsod and Kolozs counties in the next two months.[54] After the death of Stefan Dragutin, who had held the Szerémség, Macsó and other regions along the southern borders of Hungary, Charles confirmed the right of the deceased ruler's son, Vladislav, to succeed his father in 1316.[54][56] He also declared Vladislav as the lawful ruler of Serbia against Stefan Uroš II Milutin.[54] However, Stefan Uroš II captured his rival and invaded the Szerémség.[57][53] Charles launched a counter-campaign across the river Száva and seized the fortress of Macsó.[53]
The royal troops suppressed the revolt of the Abas and seized Ungvár and Nevicke Castle (present-day Uzhhorod and Nevytsky Castle in Ukraine) in May 1317.[58] Charles invaded Matthew Csák's domains and captured Komárom (now Komárno in Slovakia) on 3 November.[58] Charles raised the funds of his military actions by seizing ecclesiastical properties; therefore the prelates made an alliance in 1318 and they demanded that the Estates of the realm be summoned to a general assembly. However, the Estates did not raised objections against the king's policies at their assembly in July. During the year, his troops occupied several fortresses of the deceased Ladislaus Kán's sons in Transylvania.
After his first wife's death, the widowed Charles married Beatrix of Luxemburg, daughter of Henry VII, Holy Roman Emperor[59] and sister of King John I of Bohemia, probably in September 1318. In the summer of 1319, he led his armies against King Stefan Uroš II Milutin of Serbia, who had occupied the southern part of the Kingdom of Hungary, and defeated the Serbian troops near Macsó. After his victory, Charles reoccupied Belgrade and also the territory of the Banate of Macsó. Charles attacked the Serbian Empire in 1336, but was defeated by Dushan the Mighty. Charles was wounded by arrow. As result he lost Belgrade. At that time, Charles began to reorganise the financial basis of the royal power by declaring that it is only the king who is entitled to open new custom-houses in the kingdom.
His second wife, Beatrix and her only child died at its birth on 11 October 1319. Charles, having widowed for the second time, married Elisabeth, a daughter of King Wladislaus I of Poland on 6 July 1320.[59]
The death of Matthew III Csák on 21 March 1321, the most powerful aristocrat in the kingdom, resulted in the disintegration of his provinces and Charles' troops could occupy all the fortresses of the deceased baron till the end of the year. In January 1322, the towns in Dalmatia rebelled against the rule of Ban Mladen II Šubić of Bribir, whose family had been among Charles' first supporters. Charles, taking advantage of the situation, went to Dalmatia and arrested the powerful Ban and enstrengthened his power in Croatia and Dalmatia.[60]
The restoration of the royal power[edit]
Charles carried out numerous important political and economical reforms. In the beginning of 1323, he renounced the royal prerogative of undermining the currency and introduced a new tax (lucrum camaræ) in order to ensure the permanency of the royal revenues.[61] In the same year, Charles transferred his seat to Visegrád from Temesvár.
Charles established the so-called "honor system": instead of large donations, faithful servants of the king were given an office (in Latin honor), thus they became the keeper of royal property (including castles) in the counties and the representative of the king. However, these offices were not given for eternity, because the king could deprive his people of their office any time. Most powerful "honors" often rotated among the members of aristocracy.
New economic policy[edit]
Charles abolished the domestic private customs systems of the barons and oligarchs, which were created by them in the era of interregnum. The old original customs system was restored at the borders of the kingdom. The customs became a royal prerogative again.
Charles successfully curbed inflation, introducing new coins with a constantly high purity of gold. Florins minted, from 1325, in a newly established mint in Körmöcbánya became soon the popular international means of payment throughout Europe. The reform of the currency and of the whole fiscal system greatly contributed to enrich the treasury.
The gold production of mines reached the figure of 3,000 pounds (1,400 kg) of gold annually.[61] This was one third of the known worlds total production and five times as much as that of any other European state.[61][62] Through various means between 30 and 40 percent of the revenue derived from gold production found its way into the royal coffers allowing Charles to reform the tax system and still maintain a sumptuous court.[61]
Charles introduced new economic policy and tax systems, which were based on regales or royalties:
- Urbura (=bányabér) was the tax of mines (1/10 of gold and 1/8 of silver) — The landowners – to avoid taxation – kept their mines in secret in 1327 Charles Robert, in order to inspire the landowners open new mines, ordered to gave back the 1/3 of the tax to them.
- Minting money — Only the king was allowed to mint money, who wanted to make an acceptable currency, which wouldn't devaluate (no income from exchange fee, but it supported external trading)
- Tricesima (Hungarian: harmincadvám) — It was a customs system. The tariff was 1/30 of all foreign commercial affairs.
- Gate tax — Was mainly collected from the peasantry after every gate, where a cart could go through.
- Census (tax of townships and royal landholdings)
also levied tax on the church (1/3 of the papal income)
Foreign policy[edit]
Charles's foreign policy largely stemmed from dynastic alliances and he also endeavoured to strengthen his rule over the neighbouring territories that had accepted the supremacy of the Kings of Hungary in the course of the 13th century.
His most successful achievement was the mutual defense union with Poland and Bohemia against the Habsburgs, accomplished by the convention of Trencsén in 1335, confirmed the same year at the brilliant two-month congress of Visegrád. Not only did all the princes of Central Europe compose their differences and enjoy splendid entertainment during the months of October and November: the immediate result of the congress was a combined attack by the Hungarians and Poles upon Louis IV, Holy Roman Emperor and his ally the Habsburg Duke Albert II of Austria, which resulted in favor of Charles in 1337.[60]
Charles's desire to unite the kingdoms of Hungary and Naples under his eldest son Louis I was dashed by Venice and by the Pope, who both feared Hungary might become the dominant Adriatic power. Nevertheless he was more than compensated for this disappointment by his compact in 1339 with his ally and brother-in-law, Casimir III of Poland, whereby it was agreed that Louis should succeed to the Polish throne on the death of the childless Casimir.[59] Finally his younger son, Andrew, Duke of Calabria was promised the crown of Naples.
Deterioration of the southern frontier[edit]
The Árpád kings had succeeded in encircling their whole southern frontier with six military colonies or banates, comprising, roughly speaking, Little Wallachia (southern part of present-day Romania) and the northern parts of present-day Bulgaria, Serbia and Bosnia. Charles redistributed these territories and proselytized the residents of the region to consolidate his reign.
Although he managed to expand his kingdom, the adverse effect was converting most of the old banates into semi-independent and violently anti-Hungarian principalities. The predominant religion of the area was Greek-Orthodox, and forceful proselytization to Catholicism provoked rebellion. Natural dynastic competition with the Orthodox Serbian and Bulgarian tsars and the emergence of a new Wallachia also contributed to the uprising.
Prior to 1320, Western Wallachia (Oltenia) was regarded by the Hungarians as part of the banate of Szörény (Severin). When the Wallachian ruler, Basarab I showed signs of disobedience, Charles lead his army into Wallachia, though poor supplies caused him to return after occupying several towns. During his retreat, in November 1330, the Hungarian army was trapped by Wallachians in a mountain pass, at Posada. In the Battle of Posada, the Hungarian army was massacred, King Charles himself barely escaped by exchanging clothes with one of his knights and a plethora of the noblemen who had accompanied him were slaughtered.
Because of its large financial power, the Kingdom of Hungary quickly rebuilt its army and found itself in conflict with the Holy Roman Empire in 1337. However, the Hungarian King maintained a de jure suzerainty over Wallachia until the diplomatic disputes had been solved.[63]
Unknown to Charles, the Ottoman Turks had already secured Asia Minor under the sultans Osman I and Orhan I and planned to invade south-eastern Europe to consolidate their realm. The south-eastern European sovereignties were keener on securing their regimes than on co-ordinating their defences. Their diversity helped the Ottomans expand their dominion into the region.
Charles I died at Visegrád, Hungary[1] in 1342. His funeral ceremony - at city of Székesfehérvár - was attended by his lifelong allies: King Casimir III of Poland and Charles IV (later Holy Roman Emperor).[64]
|Ancestors of Charles I of Hungary[65][66][67]
The Anonymi descriptio Europae orientalis ("An Anonymous' Description of Eastern Europe") wrote, in the first half of 1308, that "the daughter of the strapping Duke of Ruthenia, Leo, has been recently married to Charles, King of Hungary".[68][69] Charles also stated in a charter of 1326 that he once travelled to "Ruthenia" in order to bring back his first wife to Hungary.[70][69] A charter issued on 23 June 1326 referred to Charles's wife, Queen Mary.[71] According to historian Gyula Kristó, the three documents show that Charles married a daughter of Leo II of Galicia in late 1305 or early 1306.[72] Historian Enikő Csukovits accepts Kristó's interpretation, but she writes that Mary of Galicia most probably died before the marriage.[73] The Polish historian, Stanisław Sroka, rejects Kristó's interpretation, stating that Leo I—who was born in 1292, according to him—could hardly father Charles's first wife.[74] In accordance with previous academic consensus, Sroka says that Charles's first wife was Mary of Bytom from the Silesian branch of the Piast dynasty.[75]
Charles's "first consort, Maria ... was of the Polish nation" and she was "the daughter of Duke Casimir",[76] according to the Illuminated Chronicle.[68] According to Sroka, she married Charles in 1306.[77] Kristó writes that the marriage of Charles and Mary of Bytom only took place most probably in the first half of 1311.[78] According to the Illuminated Chronicle, she died on 15 December 1317, but a royal charter, which was issued on 12 July 1318, stated that her husband made a land grant with her consent.[79] Charles's next—second or third—wife was Beatrice of Luxembourg, who was a daughter of Henry VII, Holy Roman Emperor, and the sister of John, King of Bohemia.[79] Their marriage took place before the end of February 1319.[80] She died in childbirth in early November in the same year.[80] Charles's last wife, Elisabeth, daughter of Władysław I, King of Poland.[81] She was born around 1306.[81] Their marriage took place on 6 July 1320.[81]
Most 14th-century Hungarian chronicle write that Charles and Elisabeth of Poland had five sons.[82] Their first son, Charles, was born in 1321 and died in the same year, according to the Illuminated Chronicle.[83] On the other hand, a charter of June 1323 states that the child died in this month.[84] The second son of Charles and Elisabeth, Ladislaus, was born in 1324.[85] The marriage of Ladislaus and Anne, a daughter of King John of Bohemia, was planned by their parents, but Ladislaus died in 1329.[86] Charles's and Elisabeth of Poland's third son, Louis, who was born in 1326, survived his father and succeeded him as King of Hungary.[86] His younger brothers, Andrew and Stephen, who were born in 1327 and 1332, respectively, also survived Charles.[86]
Although no contemporaneous or nearly contemporaneous sources made mention of Charles's further children, Charles may have fathered two daughters, according to historians Zsuzsa Teke and Gyula Kristó.[86][87] Zsuzsa Teke writes that they were born to Mary of Bytom, but the nearly contemporaneous Peter of Zittau wrote that she died childless.[87][85] According to Gyula Kristó, a miniature in the Illuminated Chronicle, which depicts Elisabeth of Poland and five children, implies that she gave birth to Charles's two daughters, because Kristó identifies two of the three children standing on her right as daughters.[82] The elder of Charles's two possible daughters, Catherine, who was born in early 1320s, was the wife of Henry II, Duke of Świdnica.[82] Their only daughter, Anne, grew up in the Hungarian royal court after her parents' death, implying that Charles and Elisabeth of Poland were her grandparents.[88] Historian Kazimierz Jasiński say that Elisabeth, the wife of Boleslaus II of Troppau, was also Charles's daughter.[85] If she was actually Charles's daughter, she must have been born in about 1330, according to Kristó.[85]
Charles also fathered an illegitimate son, Coloman.[77] His mother was a daughter of Gurke Csák.[89] Coloman was born in early 1317.[89] He was elected Bishop of Győr in 1336.[90]

The Best Brightly Colored Dress Shirts of the Season: Spring 2010
The best way to reinvigorate last year's spring suit is to introduce it to this year's color-charged dress shirt. 'Lost' veteranand current vampireIan Somerhalder shows how to bring an instant jolt of energy to an office place that could probably use some
Ian Somerhalder Won't Stay Dead
As bittersweet as the impending Lost finale has to be for all concerned, it's bittersweeter for Ian Somerhalder. As Flight 815 survivor Boone Carlyle, he brooded, nursed a weird crush on his stepsister, then became the first of the gang to die. Somerhalder says J. J. Abrams picked the right moment to tell him he'd been killed off: "I was in wine country, man, with a beautiful girl. I said to J.J., 'Your timing is impeccable. If I'd been at a Denny's I would have started crying.' I downed a couple bottles of Pinot and I was set." Things have worked out okay for Somerhalderhe may play Boone in at least one more "flash-sideways" this month before Lost wraps up, and he's now drinking fine reds on the regular as a 150-year-old undead hunk on the CW's Vampire Diaries. There are worse fates, he says, than being accosted in airports by obsessed fans of two different TV shows: "The decibel level at which a 13-year-old can explain how much she loves youit's the coolest thing ever."

November 10, 1948) is a Japanese essayist and copywriter whose works are widely considered to have had a defining influence on modern Japanese culture. He's dabbled in pretty much everything at some point or another over the past thirty years or so - he's done books, he's done songwriting, he's done websites, he's done voice acting, he's done film, he's done television, he's done day planners... The man is an endless font of variety, really, and Japan loves him for it.Of course, that's not what he's known for in the western world. No, the west knows him better for something that to him and to Japan was little more than a little experiment in storytelling he did on the side. Around here, he's best known as the brilliant mind behind the MOTHER trilogy of Nintendo video games, namely MOTHER, EarthBound and MOTHER 3. He's a good friend of Shigeru Miyamoto, Hirokazu Tanaka and Satoru Iwata (who singlehandedly reprogrammed EarthBound from scratch midway through development, rescuing the entire project when all seemed lost), he served on the board of Nintendo subsidiary HAL Laboratory for a while, and he is an occasional participant in the Iwata Asks interview series. Other video game endeavours of his include bass fishing video games for the Super Famicom and Nintendo 64 (he was really into bass fishing in the late 90s) and a health diary for Nintendo DSi.In 1998, he established the Hobo Nikkan Itoi Shinbun (Pretty-Much-Daily Itoi News, commonly called Hobonichi), a strange news site-hybrid themed around the idea of brightening peoples' days. It's partially a news site, but its biggest draw is its status as the home of his essays and thoughts on life, living, philosophy and his dog, and interviews with interesting people. On that note, he really loves interviewing people - his interviews never fail to be long and interesting and he's filled multiple books with them. This is pretty much why Iwata sometimes gets him to do important Iwata Asks interviews instead - because he's really, really good at it.He has a Twitter account, which is quite the interesting read if you're versed in Japanese. It's pretty easy to tell whenever he mentions MOTHER, because the title is always written in English.

|HOME-NEWS-BIO-TOUR DATES-The JACKS-AUDIO-CD SALES-PROJECTS-CONTACT
2014 - Jack to a King - Film Project
Details of the new film charting the
history of Swansea FC's
rise to the Premier League can be found at
the 'Jack to a King' web site. Mal is an Executive
Producer for the film which he describes as "a truly remarkable story
of how a 'rag tag' band of builders, housewives, teachers and travel agents
came together to save their football club and ended up turning their city
into a worldwide brand!"
'Cappuccino Girls'
Mal's latest musical project has grown out of the popularity of the track 'Cappuccino Girls', first featured on the album 'You Never Threw a Party for Me'. The track depicts the urban coffee scene in 'any city, anywhere' and the characters of three women who meet for coffee and mutual support. After proving popular with radio listeners a single and a video were produced. As interest grew, Mal developed ths concept into a new musical which opened for a short run at Altrincham Garrick Playhouse in February 2009 to 5 star reviews and acclaim from local press. A tour of venues in Wales follows later in 2009.
In Summer of 2009 Bonnie Tyler recorded a stunning new version of the title track, included as part of an album project of highlights of the whole show.
This show reveals real musical versitility and tackles some tough, contemporary issues of modern family life with intelligence, sensitivity and fun.
To follow its progress, read the synopsis and listen to previews, visit the Cappuccino Girls site.
A new musical still under development, based on the life of boxer Tommy Farr. An album of songs from the show has now been released and a full stage show will premiere in the spring of 2007. See the Contender minisite for details.
From the boxing booths of the Rhondda to a World Title fight against Joe Louis at Yankee Stadium. This is the rags to riches story of one of the bravest men to enter the ring. After making his fortune in America, the war and a series of personal tragedies left him penniless. With a young family and mounting debts there is only one way out. It's the only thing he knows. At the age of 37 he only has one option, to get back into the ring....
'Amazing Grace'
A musical based on the events surrounding the 1904-5 Welsh Religious Revival.
Premiered Spring 2005.Returned to theatres in a brand new production in Autumn 2006. See website archive for details
Amazing Grace
In 2003 Mal Pope started thinking about the centenary of the 1904 Welsh Revival and the more he read around the subject the more he became convinced that the story could be the basis of a concept album and also a piece of musical theatre for the stage. The central character is a 26 year old ex miner called Evan Roberts who claimed to have spoken face to face with the Almighty in his little bedroom in Loughor, just on the outskirts of Swansea. He also told people he had seen a cheque being handed over which bore the sum of 100,000 souls. Many dismissed these as the ramblings of a troubled mind but within 18 months the Western Mail had calculated that more than 100,000 souls had indeed been added to the church. The strain proved too much for Evan and he sadly left Wales and the Revival to become a recluse.

Jennifer Walcott, who says she changes her address "at least once a year," is a nomad by nature. Currently a resident of Los Angeles, the 24-year-old Ohio native made her first cross-country jaunt five years ago. "I packed up my little purple convertible and no one believed I was leaving," she says. "It was a really great experience growing up in Youngstown, Ohio. But I always felt like there was more out there. People in Ohio tend to settle for a simple kind of life, and I knew I wasn't that kind of girl." Miss August did "cotton-ball girl and craft service" work on movie and television sets before relocating to Chicago for eight months to be near her dying grandmother. "She was my best friend, and I told her if I ever got married, it would be a fight between her and my sister to be my maid of honor," she says."I felt I had to move back to the Midwest to be near her and to get grounded again." Jennifer studied to be a beautician before her compassion for animals compelled her to volunteer at a veterinary clinic in Los Angeles. "It was hard on me," she says. "I would nurture squirrels back to health after they fell out of trees, and that was fine. But when I saw a cat with cancer on chemotherapy or abused animals, I couldn't deal with that." She has two Chihuahuas of her own, one named Ren and another named Ace ("because he's from Las Vegas"). After a neighbor got her on the guest list for Mansion parties, Jennifer busted out at Hef's Valentine's Day bash in an outfit impossible to ignore. "I was wearing a bikini top and a sarong, and I got off the tram and noticed that a lot of people weren't wearing lingerie," she says. "I felt humiliated and wanted to leave when some of them laughed at me, but I had a few cocktails and I was fine. Then Hef called me to his table and offered me my test shoot. I want to give 100 percent to PLAYBOY. Now, if a guy could give 100 percent to me, I'd be happy. I've had only five boyfriends my whole life and was never into casual dating. I like a guy who's in touch with his feminine side so he can come with me to get a manicure or his hair colored or something. It's nice to do things together -- it's like having a girlfriend and a boyfriend in one package!"

Kauai Waimea Canyon Experience
- Details
- Reviews
- Hotel Pick-Up
Over 100 years ago Mark Twain nicknamed Waimea Canyon the "Grand Canyon of the Pacific". Experience nature's grandeur first hand on a Waimea Canyon Kauai tour. This fully guided scenic tour takes you to Waimea Canyon and other picturesque locations on Kauai, with plenty of photo stops along the way.
The lines in the Waimea Canyon walls depict different volcanic eruptions and lava flows that have occurred over the centuries. Even though it is smaller than the Grand Canyon of Arizona, Waimea Canyon rivals it's beauty. Numerous lookouts and hikes offer terrific views of every aspect of this natural wonder. The elevation of Waimea Canyon makes the air 10-15 degrees cooler than in the valley and by afternoon many areas are often shrouded in clouds.

With a name like Clit 45, there's probably not much chance this group of beer-swilling street punks will be on Total Request Live anytime soon. Blink-182 they're not. Not that Clit 45 cares, mind you. These Long Beach, California, natives couldn't give two shits about winning over the squeaky-clean pop-punk crowd. Their audience is more likely to hang out in a back alley than inside a mall. And everything's spiked spiked hair, spiked jackets, spiked beverages. And the music will poke your eye out too. Clit 45 takes a cue from early Southern California punk (the Adolescents, TSOL) and British hardcore (Discharge, GBH). The band calls its sound "post-millennium streetcore." Sure, that's a bit of a mouthful (and can be abbreviated as PMS). But looking at the fluff that passes for punk these days, maybe it's time for a new label.
Clit 45 performs with New Mexican Disaster Squad, Modern Day 84, and the M.F.C. Destroyers on Friday, June 30, at Roxanne's on Main, 3148 NE 12th Ave., Fort Lauderdale. The all-ages show starts at 7 p.m. Admission costs $8. Call 954-567-9552.

For the fourth time in the past five years, Waldorf's Varsity Boys Soccer Team traveled on Friday, Oct, 26 – just before Hurricane Sandy hit the region – to Locust Valley's Portledge School, (a neutral site), in order to play in the IPPSAL Boys Soccer Championships. This year's opponent was Lawrence Woodmere Academy (LWA) who split the regular season games with Waldorf, each earning a win and suffering a loss.
Playing on a 90-foot field for the first time and playing up an age level at 13-U did not slow down the Glen Cove Comanchees Travel Baseball team's winning ways this fall.
After a great fall season record in the Nassau County League, the Comanchees received a bye in the first round of the playoffs. Their first playoff opponent was a tough Long Island Indians squad. The Comanchees bats were on fire and it turned out to be a one-sided slugfest.

Hurricane Sandy did cause a lot of damage in the Glen Cove area, but it did not stop the Glen Cove Junior Soccer League's end of the season finale, just merely postponed it by a week.
Traditionally, the soccer league would end the season with a day-long event called Soccerfest, filled with many games, a BBQ and trophy presentations to the kids. Due to the hurricane, the Glen Cove Junior Soccer League Board came up with a different approach for this year. Soccerfest became "Lift Our Community Spirits Day" to help people try to take their mind off the recent hurricane. The whole community of Glen Cove was invited down to a free BBQ and also to watch some exciting soccer from our kids. Donations were accepted to help those in need and there were donations from private individuals to help make the BBQ a success. All the kids received trophies and by the smiles on everyone's faces, the day was a total success.
Ken Pilla, Barbara Greenfield, Darcy Belyea and the rest of the board are to be commended for a job well done. Kudos go out to Mayor Suozzi and the council for their continuous support and most importantly, the Glen Cove residents. The spirit of the day well exemplified league founder Marco Malusa's principles regarding having a soccer league in Glen Cove.
It was a season that started out as "not meant to be," but ended with gritty and heartfelt wins at the Long Island championship and regionals – and ultimately a historic return to the state championship.
"These girls never gave up and never stopped believing," said Coach Gail Baker, last year's Coach of the Year. "We had a lot of obstacles, including low numbers for both the JV and varsity, but we were still able to make it to the state semifinals and compete against our co-champion from last year, Hoosick Falls."
New York Giants wide receiver Hakeem Nicks knows that and showcased those ideals at his recent ProCamps Worldwide Ultimate Fan Experience presented by Citi at Hofstra University on Saturday, Nov. 17. Nicks, a four-year veteran, used the team's bye week to give future gridiron greats an inside look of what it is to be an NFL player.
