The Academy of St Martin in the Fields (ASMF) is an English chamber orchestra, based in London.

John Churchill, then Master of Music at the London church of St Martin-in-the-Fields, and Neville Marriner founded the orchestra as "The Academy of St. Martin-in-the-Fields", a small, conductorless string group. The ASMF gave its first concert on 13 November 1959, in the church after which it was named. In 1988, the orchestra dropped the hyphens from its full name.

History
The initial performances as a string orchestra at St Martin-in-the-Fields played a key role in the revival of Baroque performances in England.  The orchestra has since expanded to include winds. It remains flexible in size, changing its make-up to suit its repertoire, which ranges from the Baroque to contemporary works.

In 1978, the Chorus of St Martin in the Fields was founded, solely for the purpose of performing Bach's Mass in B minor, which Marriner and the Academy would tour with. After the initial live performances, Marriner recorded the work for Philips Records with soloists Margaret Marshall, Janet Baker, Robert Tear and Samuel Ramey. Since then, the Chorus of St Martin in the Fields has become an independent group and has recorded multiple times with Marriner and the Academy (although sometimes being substituted by the Ambrosian Singers).

Neville Marriner continued to perform obbligatos and concertino solos with the orchestra until 1969, and led the orchestra on recordings until the autumn of 1970, when he switched to conducting from the podium from directing the orchestra from the leader's desk. Marriner held the title of Life President until his death in 2016.  On recordings, besides Marriner, Iona Brown and Kenneth Sillito have led the orchestra, among others.

In 1993, the Academy of St Martin in the Fields became the first – and to date, only – orchestra to be awarded The Queen's Award for Export Achievement.

Since 2000, Murray Perahia has held the title of Principal Guest Conductor of the orchestra, and has made commercial recordings with the orchestra as pianist and conductor.

In May 2011, the orchestra appointed  Joshua Bell as its new Music Director, the second person to hold the title in the orchestra's history, effective September 2011, with an initial contract of 3 years. In July 2017, the ASMF extended Bell's contract through 2020, an additional three years from his previous contract extension.

Sally Beamish has the title of composer-in-residence with the ASMF, the first composer so affiliated with the ASMF, scheduled through the 2019–2020 season.

Recordings
The orchestra's first recording was for the L'Oiseau-Lyre label at Conway Hall on 25 March 1961. It has since accumulated an extensive discography, and is one of the most recorded chamber orchestras in the world, with over 500 sessions.  Other labels the orchestra has recorded for include Argo, Capriccio, Chandos, Decca, EMI, Hänssler, Hyperion, and Philips. Earlier recordings by the ASMF from the old Philips label have been reissued on Pentatone. The orchestra has also recorded under the names "Argo Chamber Orchestra", "London String Players", and "London Strings".

The soundtrack to the Oscar-winning film Amadeus, a fictional account of the life of the composer Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and his bitter feud with rival Antonio Salieri features many of Mozart's most popular compositions. Recorded by the Academy and Sir Neville Marriner in 1984, the soundtrack to Amadeus reached #1 in the Billboard Classical Albums Chart, #56 in the Billboard Popular Albums Chart, has sold over 6.5 million copies to date and received 13 Gold Discs, making it one of the most popular classical music recordings of all time. The partnership between the Academy and its founder Sir Neville Marriner is the most recorded of any orchestra and conductor.

Chamber Ensemble
The Academy of St Martin in the Fields Chamber Ensemble was created in 1967 to perform the larger chamber works with players who customarily worked together, instead of the usual string quartet with additional guests. Drawn from the principal players of the Academy and led by violinist Tomo Keller, the Chamber Ensemble performs in all shapes and sizes, from string quintets to octets, and in various other configurations featuring winds. Its touring commitments are extensive and include regular tours of Europe and North America, whilst recording contracts with Philips Classics, Hyperion, and Chandos have led to the release of over thirty CDs.

Joseph Franklin Wilson (* 18. März 1901 in Corsicana, Texas; † 13. Oktober 1968 in Dallas, Texas) war ein US-amerikanischer Politiker. Zwischen 1947 und 1955 vertrat er den Bundesstaat Texas im US-Repräsentantenhaus.

Werdegang
Joseph Wilson besuchte die öffentlichen Schulen seiner Heimat. Im Jahr 1913 kam er nach Memphis, wo er bis 1916 seine Schulausbildung fortsetzte. Während des Ersten Weltkrieges war er zwischen 1917 und 1919 an verschiedenen Militärschulen. Nach einem anschließenden Jurastudium an der Baylor University in Waco und seiner 1923  erfolgten Zulassung als Rechtsanwalt begann er in Dallas in diesem Beruf zu arbeiten. Politisch war er Mitglied der Demokratischen Partei. Im Juni 1936 war er Delegierter zur Democratic National Convention in Philadelphia, auf der Präsident Franklin D. Roosevelt zur Wiederwahl nominiert wurde. Von 1942 bis 1945 war er regionaler Parteivorsitzender der Demokraten im Dallas County. Zwischen 1943 und 1944 amtierte er als Bezirksrichter am Kriminalgericht von Texas.

Bei den Kongresswahlen des Jahres 1946 wurde Wilson im fünften Wahlbezirk von Texas in das US-Repräsentantenhaus in Washington, D.C. gewählt, wo er am 3. Januar 1947 die Nachfolge von Hatton W. Sumners antrat. Nach drei Wiederwahlen konnte er bis zum 3. Januar 1955 vier Legislaturperioden im Kongress absolvieren. Diese waren von den Ereignissen des Kalten Krieges und der Bürgerrechtsbewegung geprägt. Im Jahr 1954 verzichtete Wilson auf eine weitere Kandidatur.

Nach dem Ende seiner Zeit im US-Repräsentantenhaus war er zwischen 1955 und 1968 Richter am Kriminalgericht der Stadt Dallas. In dieser Eigenschaft war er am 22. November 1963 bei der Vereidigung des neuen Präsidenten Lyndon B. Johnson beteiligt, dem dieses Amt nach der Ermordung von John F. Kennedy zufiel. Joseph Wilson starb am 13. Oktober 1968 in Dallas, wo er auch beigesetzt wurde.

Gothiscandza, según el historiador Jordanes en su obra Getica, fue la primera zona de asentamiento de los godos, en la cuenca del Vístula, tras su migración desde Scandza (Escandinavia), que tuvo lugar durante la primera mitad del

Jordanes menciona que la tribu oriental de los godos, que venían desde Scandza, acaudillados por el rey Berig, nada más llegar, bautizaron el territorio como Gothiscandza. Pronto ocuparon los asentamientos de los rugios (también llamados Ulmerugi, otra tribu germánica que habría llegado antes que los godos), que vivían en la costa y los expulsaron hacia occidente. Luego vencieron en el campo de batalla a sus nuevos vecinos, los vándalos.

Después de algún tiempo, por lo menos cuatro generaciones tras el caudillaje de Berig, y durante el reinado del rey Filimer su número se multiplicó. Filimer decidió que debían abandonar Gothiscandza y desplazarse hasta Oium (Escitia). Muchos arqueólogos e historiadores han propuesto la teoría que la palabra Gothiscandza está relacionada lingüísticamente con el idioma casubio y otras lenguas lenguas eslavas occidentales, como es el caso por ejemplo de Gdańsk (alemán: Danzig).

Etimología
Una interpretación de Gothiscandza se inclina hacia una forma latinizada del godo gutisk-an[d]ja, "Fin Gótico (o Frontera Gótica)", ya que el territorio de los godos se extendía hasta ese lugar.

Otra interpretación se inclina hacia an[d]ja como sinónimo de "cabo" y que la palabra compuesta significa "península gótica". Es posible que la palabra sea producto de la fusión de gótico y Escandinavia. Herwig Wolfram menciona ambas propuesta "Costa gótica" y "Scandia gótica", pero favorece esta última ya que la primera se considera "lingüísticamente cuestionable".

Fuentes nórdicas
En las fuentes y sagas nórdicas, aparecen dos tradiciones relacionadas Gothiscandza. La primera es Gutasaga, que se refiere a la migración de los godos y la segunda, a la leyenda de Dag el Sabio, y las incursiones desde Scandza.

Gutasaga
La Gutasaga explica cuando los habitantes de la isla de Gotland (tierra de los godos) se multiplicaron y la isla no podía sostenerlos a todos, separaron a los habitantes en tres partes y un tercio se dirigió al sur buscando nuevos asentamientos, llegando hasta Grecia:

Fueron muy lejos hasta llegar a la tierra de los griegos <…> se asentaron allí, todavía viven allí, y todavía mantienen algo de nuestro idioma.

Ynglingatal
El legendario Dag el Sabio y los ataques a Reidgotaland, con su ejército de suiones, en el siglo II o III. Ynglingatal interpreta la influencia de los godos en los nombres de nuevos territorios durante las migraciones.

Renacimiento
El tema de Gothiscandza disfrutó de cierto renacimiento en Alemania de manos de Gustav Kossinna a principios del .

محمد جميل عبد القادر عشا هو طبيب أردني وأحد المتهمين في تفجيرات لندن وجلاسكو 2007، أردني ولد في السعودية بمدينة عرعر في 16 أيلول 1980 ودرس في مدارسها وكان متفوقا في هذه المرحلة الأساسية وعندما رجع والداه إلى الأردن في 1991 اكمل دراسته في مدرسة ابن زهر الأساسية في عمان منطقة جبل الزهور ملتحقا في الصف السادس الأساسي واستمر فيها حتى الصف الثامن وقد كرم في هذه الفترة عدة مرات وذلك لتفوقة العلمي والأكاديمي.

دراسته المدرسية والتحاقة باليوبيل

ومن ثم اجتاز امتحانات القبول لمدرسة اليوبيل مؤسسة نور الحسين آنذاك (حيث أنها مدرسة للموهوبين والمتفوقين اسسها الملك الحسين بن طلال وزوجته الملك نور الحسين) وتميز أثناء دراسته في هذه المدرسسة وفاز بعدة مسابقات أدبية وشعرية وشارك في الجيش الشعبي وجائزة الحسن للشباب في العام 1997 وبعدها بعام تقدم لامتحانات الثانوية العامة وحصد المركز الثامن على مستوى المملكة بمعدل 97.9 لذلك فقد قدمت له وزارة التعليم العالي في الأردن منحة لدراسة الطب البشري في الجامعة الأردنية.

دراسته الجامعي
وبالفعل التحق فيها وتميز فاحبة زملائة ومعلمية وأساتذته ودكاترته في المدارس والجامعة وكان دائما يتميز ويتفوق في دراسته فهو الأول على كلية الطب في الفترة 1998 -2004 وكان طموحة الأكبر والحلم الذي سعى لاجله هو دراسة جراحة الاعصاب في بريطانيا وكان اختياره لبريطانيا لما لها من سمعة طيبة في العلم والتقدم وفي معاملة الجنسيات الأخرى والمسلمين والحرية والديمقراطية.

وبالفعل تحقق جزء من حلمه المنشود بان تم قبوله فترة تدريبية في جامعة كامبردج ومستشفى ادنبرة لمدة شهرين وذهب إلى هنالك في عام 2003 وتخرج من الجامعة الأردنية في حزيران عام 2004 م. إذ كان ترتيبه الأول على كلية الطب، ومرتبة الشرف الأولى على الجامعة الأردنية وبدرجة 3,87/4 وجاء حصوله على هذه الدرجة... بعد دراسة مضنية استنفذت كل وقته، ومثابرة شهد لها القاصي والداني... (هذا ما أكده الدكتور.عزمي محافظة على قناة الجزيرة في 3/7/2007 م تعليقاً على خبر اعتقال الدكتور محمد عشا، حيث قال:

ستأخذ الدراسة كل وقت الطالب للحصول فقط على النجاح في الطب... فكيف بالذي يسعى إلى التفوق في هذا التخصص الصعب مثل الدكتور محمد عشا.

وهو أيضا ما اضافه استاذه في الجامعة الأردنية د. محمد هشام المحتسب رئيس قسم التشريح وعلم الأنسجة، الذي صرح للعرب اليوم(صحيفة أردنية) في 4/7/2007 بأن الطالب (والطبيب ألان) محمد عشا من الطلبة الذين ليس لديهم ميول سياسية وقد كان يتردد على مكتبي كثيراً أثناء دراسته، ولم ألاحظ عليه أي تعصب فكري أو تطرف بل على العكس كان مثابراً جداً على دراسته أكثر من الطلبة الآخرين".
ومن ثم قدم مجموعة من الامتحانات لمتابعة تحقيق حلمة بإكمال دراسته في بريطانيا وكان اخرها 3 في العام 2004 حيث تقدم لاولها في المركز الثقافي البريطاني الموجود في عمان... والثاني تقدم إليه في المركز البريطاني الموجود في مصر، حيث صادف موعد زواجه من مروى يونس دعنا... والتي رافقته إلى هناك... وكان موعده الأخير مع امتحان القبول الثالث الذي قدمه في الجامعة في بريطانيا... فأبدى تفوقاً في مراحل القبول ثم التحق بالجامعة.

وفي عام 2007 م تحقق جزءٌ من هدفه المنشود بحصوله على الماجستير في جراحة الأعصاب بامتياز وقدم ثلاثة بحوث علمية متميزة في أيار عام 2007 م في مؤتمر جراحي الدماغ والأعصاب وتم تكريمه على اثر ذلك لجهوده المتميزة فيما نشر الخبر في الصحف البريطانية التي تنبأت له بمستقبل باهر... على اثر ذلك حصل على مقعد الاختصاص لجراحة الدماغ والأعصاب الذي نافسه عليه ما يزيد عن 1200 طبيباً من مختلف الجنسيات... فتفوق عليهم.

اتهامه
كان على هذا الطبيب الفذ أن يستريح قليلاً كي يتابع المسيرة، فتقدم بطلب إجازة رسمية مدفوعة الأجر من 12/7/2007 – 1/8 وألحقها بأخرى دون راتب حتى 12/8 حيث كان سيقضي إجازته في ربوع الوطن بين أهله وإخوانه، فحجز تذكرتين ذهاباً وإياباً له ولعائلته، حيث كان سيعود بعد الإجازة لاستلام وظيفته الجديدة في إحدى المستشفيات البريطانية، وكان آخر اتصال له بأهله في 28/6 حيث تشاور مع الأهل بخصوص طلباتهم بشأن الهدايا التي سيشتريها لهم... وكان الموعد المشؤوم مع الحدث الذي أخَّر لقائه بأهله الذين صدموا لذلك حيث تم اعتقاله وزوجته السيدة مروى يونس دعنا، وطفلهما أنس البالغ من العمر العام والنصف في 30/6/2007 في الشارع السريع (6m) بينما كانا في طريق عودتهما إلى المنزل..وذلك على خلفية حادث مطار(غلاسكو) في (أسكتلندا). سمعوا بخبر اعتقاله من قبل السلطات البريطانية مصادفة، عبر قناة العربية يوم الاثنين الموافق 2/7/2007 م... ونظراً لعدم انسجام الأسباب التي أدت إلى ذلك مع مبادئ الدكتور محمد، فقد أخذَهم الالتباسُ إلى الاعتقاد بأن في الأمر تشابه للأسماء... لولا التفاصيل التي وردت فيما بعد تحمل في طياتها صوراً للمعتقل عبر محطات التلفزة العالمية والعربية حيث تأكد لهم الخبر المشؤوم.

وفي 12/7/2007 تم الإفراج عن زوجته مروى دون توجيه الاتهام لها وبعدها بيومين قاموا بتسليمها ابنها انس ذو العام والنصف بعد أن وضعوه في إحدى دور الرعاية الاجتماعية.

وفي 19/7/2007 وجهت الشرطة البريطانية إلى الطبيب الأردني محمد العشا (26 عاما) يوم الخميس تهمة «التآمر لاحداث تفجيرات».

ومنذ ذلك الحين والعشا محتجز ينتظر موعد المحاكمة إلى أن بدأ محاكمته في الجمعة 4/10/2008 أي بعد حوالي عام و3 أشهر

Edward "Ned" Needles Hallowell (November 3, 1836 – July 26, 1871) was an officer in the Union Army in the duration of the American Civil War, commanding the 54th Massachusetts Volunteer Infantry following the death of Colonel Robert Gould Shaw at the Second Battle of Fort Wagner in 1863.

Early life
Edward grew up in a well-to-do Quaker family in Philadelphia. His father Morris was part owner and operator of Hallowell & Company of 33 South Third Street, Philadelphia. The firm predominantly imported and sold silk from India and China. Edward's father was also a passionate abolitionist. The Hallowell family was far more than passive meeting attenders. The family's summer home was employed as a stop on the Underground Railroad.

Edward and the other children of Morris and Hannah shared the abolitionist views of their parents. His brother Richard Price Hallowell was one of the members of the "Black Committee" that Governor Andrew of Massachusetts selected to inquire of the willingness of prospective candidates to serve in officer positions in the 54th Massachusetts Volunteer Infantry.

He had two children, Charlott and Emily Hallowell, with his wife, Charlotte Bartlett Wilhelmina Swett. Hallowell was a stockbroker before the war and became a wool commission merchant after the war.

Civil War service
In early 1862 Edward joined his brother Norwood Penrose "Pen" Hallowell, who was already serving in the 20th Massachusetts Volunteer Infantry. He served as a lieutenant. While he was in the 20th, the regiment saw considerable action including the Peninsula Campaign, the Seven Days, Antietam and Fredericksburg.

Lt. Edward Hallowell then accepted an appointment in the 54th Massachusetts, which was to be led by Robert Gould Shaw as colonel and his brother Norwood as lieutenant colonel. The regiment was to be made up of white and black abolitionists fighting together for black freedom. Edward recruited African-American soldiers in Philadelphia and was actually the first officer to occupy the barracks set aside for the 54th at Camp Meigs in Reedville. Recruiting for the regiment proved so successful that a second regiment, the 55th, was formed. Norwood Hallowell was designated as the 55th's colonel and Edward was promoted to major and was second-in-command to Shaw.

By the time of the famous assault by the 54th on Fort Wagner Hallowell was promoted to lieutenant colonel. In the assault on Fort Wagner he commanded the left wing with half the regiment's companies. Because of the narrow defile through which the 54th had to pass the left wing was deployed directly behind Shaw and the right wing. Hallowell suffered three wounds in the assault and went home to recuperate. Upon returning he commanded the 54th as a full colonel for the rest of the war, except when he was in temporary command of a brigade.

The 54th and Hallowell continued to serve with distinction during the war. He fought at the Battle of Olustee, the Battle of Honey Hill and the Battle of Boykin's Mill. At Boykin's Mill, Hallowell was in command of Major General Potter's 3rd Brigade. When the fortifications around Charleston fell along with the city it was the 54th under Hallowell that occupied various former Confederate posts including Fort Sumter and Fort Wagner. Additionally, the 54th guarded Confederate prisoners of war during this time, including some whom they had faced at Fort Wagner.

Post War years
Hallowell was mustered out of the Union Army volunteer service on August 20, 1865. Hallowell marched with the Massachusetts members of the 54th Massachusetts Volunteer Infantry Regiment at a post-war victory review held in Boston in December 1865. On January 13, 1866, President Andrew Johnson nominated Hallowell for the award of the honorary grade of brevet brigadier general of volunteers to rank from June 27, 1865 for "meritorious services" during the war. The United States Senate confirmed the award on March 12, 1866.

After the war Edward returned to Medford and became a wool commission merchant. His wounds from the war undoubtedly cut his life short and he died in 1871. He is buried with his wife Charlotte at Mount Auburn Cemetery in Cambridge.

Legacy
The character of Major Cabot Forbes in the film Glory is based somewhat on Edward Hallowell and his brother. Little lasting recognition of either Edward or his brother Norwood exists. One exception is at the famous Union Club off of Boston Common which has meeting rooms dedicated to Edward and Norwood as well as Robert Gould Shaw.

Hawaii's Story by Hawaii's Queen is a book written by Queen Liliuokalani, the last monarch of the Kingdom of Hawaii. It was first published in 1898, five years after the overthrow of the Kingdom. In it, Liliuokalani gives her account of her upbringing, her accession to the throne, the overthrow of her government by pro-American forces, her appeals to the United States to restore the Hawaiian monarchy, and her arrest and trial following an unsuccessful 1895 rebellion against the Republic of Hawaii.

Her appeals immediately after the overthrow were acted upon by her friend, President Grover Cleveland, who demanded her reinstatement from the President of Hawaii, Sanford B. Dole, following a confidential investigation and report by James Henderson Blount submitted July 17, 1893. Dole refused Cleveland's demands. Cleveland then referred the matter to the United States Congress. The Congress investigated further and produced the Morgan Report on February 26, 1894, which concluded that the U.S. had no role in the Hawaiian Revolution. Following the Morgan Report, the Turpie Resolution of May 31, 1894 ended any hope for further assistance in regaining her throne, and her further appeals for help were rebuffed by the Cleveland administration.

In 1898, the same year the book was originally published, U.S. president McKinley and Congress passed a Joint Resolution known as the Newlands Resolution, annexing Hawaiʻi as a U.S. territory. This Treaty was declined by Queen Liliʻuokalani and was very unpopular with the people of Hawai'i, and the legality of this annexation remains in question today.

This book is seen by many in the Hawaiian sovereignty movement as a key source documenting the overthrow of the Hawaiian monarchy. However, many of her assertions regarding the overthrow are contradicted by other primary sources, including the Morgan Report and the Native Hawaiians Study Commission Report of 1983.

In either case, many people believe that the work is successful in conveying the frustration and sadness by the Queen and her supporters both for her loss of the throne, as well as the end of the independent nation of Hawaii upon annexation to the United States.

Sie hilft bei der Kommunikation in interkulturellen Gruppen und vergrößert das Wahrnehmungsvermögen der Teilnehmenden sich selbst und den anderen gegenüber.

Grundlagen

Sprachanimation hat nicht das (primäre) Ziel, jemandem eine Fremdsprache beizubringen, sondern die Sprache näherzubringen und sich dabei auch der eigenen Sprache bewusst zu werden. Sprachanimation nutzt verschiedene Spiele, mit denen es gelingt, die Angst sowohl vor der (fremden) Sprache als auch vor dem Sprechen (egal in welcher Sprache) und vor möglichen Fehlern abzubauen. Die Teilnehmer gewinnen größeres Selbstvertrauen bei der Verwendung der Fremdsprache in der alltäglichen Kommunikation.

Darüber hinaus werden vor allem elementare kulturelle Gemeinsamkeiten, aber auch Unterschiede vermittelt. Durch interkulturelle Übungen können die Teilnehmer eine Vorstellung über die andere Kultur bekommen und sich dabei eigene Gefühle und Meinungen bewusst machen.

Sprachanimation läuft in ständiger Interaktion und intensivem Dialog. Es geht dabei nicht um eine einseitige Sprachvermittlung von Seiten der Sprachanimateure, sondern die Teilnehmer bringen Eigeninitiative, Kreativität und Fantasie ein. Sprachanimation bringt Bewegung und Dynamik in die Gruppe. Keinesfalls handelt es sich um eine klassische Unterrichtsmethode oder systematischen Unterricht.

Begriff

Der Begriff "Sprachanimation" ist aus den Wörtern "Sprache" und "Animation" zusammengesetzt. Eine der Hauptbedeutungen des Wortes "Sprache" ist die Fähigkeit zu sprechen.
Für das Wort "Animation" sind in den Lexika zwei unterschiedliche Grundbedeutungen zu finden. Neben dem "Verfahren, das unbelebten Objekten im Trickfilm Bewegung verleiht" erscheinen hier "organisierte Sport- und Freizeitaktivitäten für Urlauber, besonders in Ferienclubs". So wie Ferienclubanimateure die Gäste zu Freizeitaktivitäten anregen und wie Trickfilmer zweidimensionale Helden zum Leben erwecken, bringen die Sprachanimateure – im wörtlichen wie im übertragenen Sinne – die Teilnehmer der Sprachanimation in Bewegung und ermuntern sie zu Aktivitäten rund um die Sprache. Sie regen Kreativität und Eigeninitiative an und inspirieren zu Sprach- und Gedankenspielen. Die Sprachanimation dient also dazu, bei den Teilnehmern auf spielerische Art und Weise Lust (nicht nur) auf die Sprache des Nachbarlandes zu wecken und die Welt aus einem anderen Blickwinkel zu betrachten.

Methodendatenbank zur Sprachanimation
Seit Frühjahr 2019 gibt es auf der Webseite sprachanimation.de 15 Übungen der Sprachanimation sowie einige theoretische Erklärungen zu der Methode auf den Sprachen Deutsch, Französisch, Englisch und Polnisch als Videos kostenlos abrufbar. Die Methoden sind zusätzlich als PDF zum herunterladen bereitgestellt. Weitere Sprachen (Spanisch, Griechisch und Portugiesisch) sind zurzeit in Arbeit und werden Anfang 2020 auf die Seite aufgespielt.

Em 14 de dezembro de 2021, um caminhão-tanque de combustível explodiu no bairro Samari, em Cap-Haïtien, a capital do departamento haitiano Nord. Pelo menos 75 pessoas morreram e mais de 100 ficaram feridas; várias tentavam roubar a carga do caminhão quando ocorreu a explosão.

Contexto
Em 2021, o Haiti era o país mais pobre do Hemisfério Ocidental. As crises econômicas e políticas foram agravadas pelo assassinato do presidente Jovenel Moïse, o terremoto de 2021, que causou 2.248 mortes e US $ 1,5 bilhão em danos, e uma rede elétrica instável que deixou hospitais, escolas e empresas dependentes de geradores a gasolina. Na sequência do terremoto, os saques e as atividades de gangues ampliaram-se, com sequestros de caminhões de combustível.

Em novembro de 2021, o líder da gangue G9 Jimmy Chérizier anunciou que os caminhões de combustível teriam permissão temporária para voltar a Porto Príncipe. Os cidadãos haitianos lutaram para conseguir gasolina, com alguns vendendo para o mercado negro.

Explosão
Um caminhão-tanque 34 mil litros de gasolina, na tentativa de evitar uma motocicleta, capotou e começou a derramar combustível. O motorista do caminhão saiu do veículo e alertou os transeuntes para não se aproximarem. Algumas das vítimas da explosão tentaram roubar a gasolina do caminhão batendo no tanque com martelos quando ele explodiu, com o combustível armazenado em casas próximas piorando a extensão da explosão. Setenta e cinco pessoas morreram na explosão e mais de 100 ficaram feridas. A explosão também colocou fogo em 50 casas, danificou empresas e deixou veículos carbonizados. A causa da explosão foi o lixo que fumegava quando a gasolina do caminhão o atingiu. Os bombeiros foram enviados para a área, mas devido à falta de água tiveram que pedir ajuda aos bombeiros do aeroporto.

Após a explosão, várias vítimas ficaram feridas devido a atropelamentos.

Impacto
As ambulâncias demoraram até cinco horas a chegar e 15 vítimas tiveram de ser transportadas por via aérea. As vítimas foram encaminhadas para hospitais menores e menos equipados porque o maior hospital da cidade fechou em novembro devido a ataques de bandidos. Esses hospitais ficaram superlotados e não puderam atender as vítimas por falta de suprimentos básicos, sendo que algumas vítimas foram colocadas no chão ou no pátio do hospital por falta de leitos. Quatorze vítimas morreram enquanto estavam no hospital. Hospitais de campanha também foram instalados na cidade. A UNICEF enviou equipamentos médicos para a cidade para as vítimas de queimaduras. O presidente interino e primeiro-ministro Ariel Henry anunciou três dias de luto no país.

The Lowest of the Low is a Canadian alternative rock group formed in 1991 from Toronto, Ontario, Canada. They were one of the most influential bands on the Canadian alternative music scene in the early 1990s, garnering widespread critical acclaim and radio play. Their most successful album, Shakespeare My Butt, was later named one of the ten greatest albums in Canadian music history in three successive reader polls by the music magazine Chart, as well as being ranked as the 84th greatest Canadian album of all time in Bob Mersereau's book The Top 100 Canadian Albums.

History
The band was formed by Ron Hawkins, Stephen Stanley and David Alexander, all members of the band Popular Front, as a side project at a time when their other band was going through internal tensions that eventually led to its breakup. While performing as a trio in folk clubs, they met John Arnott, who became the band's fourth member. The band's punk-inspired jangle pop quickly became a popular draw on the Queen Street West club circuit in Toronto. They submitted the songs "Gamble" and "Motel 30", produced by Bob Wiseman, to the $100,000 CFNY Discovery to Disc contest in 1991.

In 1991, they released their debut album, Shakespeare My Butt, on Page Publications. The album featured songs they had already performed and toured for several years as Popular Front. Hawkins's songs were filled with lyrics about Marxism and the Spanish Civil War, but also contained many references to Toronto landmarks like the Don River, Bathurst Street, and his local pub, "The Only" on Danforth Avenue. The album became one of the best-selling independent releases in Canadian history, selling just short of gold status, and was later named one of the ten greatest albums in Canadian music history by the music magazine Chart.

However, the band also resisted some of the compromises and demands of the music industry; most notably, they played an early industry A&R show wearing T-shirts that read "Don't suck corporate cock" and "Corporate rock still sucks".

In 1993, the band signed a distribution deal with A&M Records, and released Hallucigenia in 1994. They toured to support the album and had begun early preparations for their follow-up album, but creative and business tensions resulted in the band breaking up later the same year. Hawkins released a solo album, The Secret of My Excess, in 1996 before forming Ron Hawkins and the Rusty Nails.

Reunions
In 2000, The Lowest of the Low reunited for a five-show tour, playing to sold-out venues in Toronto and Buffalo. In January 2002, the live album Nothing Short of a Bullet was released. The album also featured a second disc with three new studio songs, including a cover of the Bad Religion song "Kerosene".

In 2002, bassist John Arnott left the band and was replaced by Dylan Parker. In 2004, the band signed with MapleMusic Recordings. The same year, the band released Sordid Fiction, their first new studio album since 1994. Following the tour for that record, the band went on extended hiatus again.

In November 2007 the band announced that they were breaking up for good. They played two final shows, one on December 4, 2007, at the Horseshoe Tavern in Toronto and another on December 8, 2007, at Club Infinity in Williamsville, New York. This concert was released by fans of the band as a DVD, incorporating several camcorder recordings of the show and a soundboard audio patch.  The fan released DVD was entitled Into the Black, and can be downloaded on Ron Hawkins' web site.

In December 2010, the band reunited again for a Massey Hall sold-out show plus two nights at Lee's Palace in Toronto to celebrate the release of a new remastered edition of Shakespeare My Butt on Pheromone Recordings. They also announced plans for a tour in 2011 to mark the 20th anniversary of the album.

On December 6, 2011, the band performed a surprise set at the 30th anniversary party for The Only, the pub that inspired the song "Just About 'The Only' Blues" on their first album.

The Lowest of the Low made plans to record their fourth album in the fall of 2013, although the departure of founding member Stephen Stanley halted these plans.

In November 2015, they released two new songs, "The Kids Are All Wrong" and "In the Blink of an Eye", with new guitarist Brian Macmillan replacing Stanley. In 2017, they released Do the Right Now, their first album of new material since 2004's Sordid Fiction.

In 2018, the band released a career-spanning vinyl LP box set called Shakespeare...My Box. It re-released their 4 studio albums, as well as including a new collection of B-sides, live tracks, and remixes, called Thrifty, Thrifty, Thrifty.

Their most recent studio album, Agitpop, was released in 2019. In 2021 they followed up with Taverns and Palaces, a live album collecting recorded performances from Lee's Palace and the Horseshoe Tavern.

In 2023 they released Welcome to the Plunderdome, which was their first album in their entire career to be collectively self-produced by the band.

Influence

The Lowest of the Low have been cited as a major influence by The Weakerthans, whose leader John K. Samson was previously a member of Propagandhi when the latter covered TLotL's song "Gamble". The Lowest of the Low have actually repaid the favour to The Weakerthans by singing about attending one of their concerts in the song "A Casual Overdose". Covers of Lowest of the Low songs by other artists include "Rosy and Grey" by Weddings Parties Anything and "Bleed a Little While Tonight" by Jeremy Fisher.

O Bio-Bus é o primeiro ônibus do Reino Unido movido inteiramente por fezes humanas e resíduos de alimentos.

O ônibus, que entrou em serviço no sudoeste da Inglaterra em 2014, é movido a biometano. O gás é feito de esgoto humano e restos de comida que são processados em uma fábrica em Avonmouth administrada pela GENeco, uma subsidiária da Wessex Water. Tem um chassis Scania K270UB e uma carroçaria Enviro200 com 40 lugares. Um registro especial foi emitido: YT13YUK.

O ônibus inicialmente serviu  Rota da Bath Bus Company entre o Aeroporto de Bristol e Bath. A cidade vizinha de Bristol foi Capital Verde Europeia em 2015 e, em conexão com isso, o ônibus operou em Bristol na rota First Bristol número 2. Agora ele funciona para Reading Buses como BU52GAS.

Quando comparado com os motores a diesel normalmente usados para abastecer ônibus, o Bio bus produz 20 a 30% menos dióxido de carbono, 80% menos óxidos de nitrogênio e tem baixo teor de partículas. Um tanque de gasolina abastecerá o ônibus por ; no entanto, o ônibus precisa reabastecer no Bristol Sewage Treatment Works, que fica a 11 km do centro da cidade, o que significa que o ônibus precisa fazer uma viagem significativa para reabastecer, tornando-o menos econômico.

Solomon Hersh "Paul" Frees (June 22, 1920November 2, 1986) was an American actor, comedian, impressionist, and vaudevillian. He is known for his work on Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, Walter Lantz, Rankin/Bass and Walt Disney theatrical cartoons during the Golden Age of Animation, and for providing the voice of Boris Badenov in The Rocky and Bullwinkle Show. Voice actor Mel Blanc said Frees was known as "The Man of a Thousand Voices", though the appellation was more commonly bestowed on Blanc himself.

Early life
Solomon Hersh Frees was born to a Jewish family in Chicago, Illinois, on June 22, 1920. He grew up in the Albany Park neighborhood and attended Von Steuben Junior High School. He had an unusually wide four-octave voice range that enabled him to voice a scale from the thundering basso profundo of the unseen "Ghost Host" in the Haunted Mansion attraction at Disneyland in California and at Walt Disney World in Florida to the voice of the farmer who educates the Little Green Sprout (voiced by Ike Eisenmann) about vegetable products of the Jolly Green Giant in the Green Giant vegetable commercials.

Career
In the 1930s, Frees first appeared in vaudeville as an impressionist, under the name Buddy Green. He began his career on radio in 1942 and remained active for more than 40 years. During that time, he was involved in more than 250 films, cartoons, and TV appearances; as was the case for many voice actors of the time, his appearances were often uncredited.

Frees's early radio career was cut short when he was drafted into the United States Army during World War II, where he fought at Normandy, France, on D-Day. He was wounded in action and was returned to the United States for a year of recuperation. He attended the Chouinard Art Institute under the G.I. Bill. When his first wife's health failed, he decided to drop out and return to radio work.

He appeared frequently on Hollywood radio series, including Escape, playing lead roles and alternating with William Conrad as the opening announcer of Suspense in the late 1940s, and parts on Gunsmoke (doing an impersonation of Howard McNear as Doc Adams for at least one episode, "The Cast"), and Crime Classics. One of his few starring roles in this medium was as Jethro Dumont/Green Lama in the 1949 series The Green Lama, as well as a syndicated anthology series The Player, in which Frees narrated and played all the parts.

Frees was often called upon in the 1950s and 1960s to "reloop" the dialogue of other actors, often to correct for foreign accents, lack of English proficiency, or poor line readings by nonprofessionals. These dubs extended from a few lines to entire roles. This can be noticed rather clearly in the films Grand Prix (as Izo Yamura) and Midway, wherein Frees reads for Toshiro Mifune's performances as Admiral Yamamoto; or in the film Some Like It Hot, in which Frees provides the voice of funeral director Mozzarella as well as much of the falsetto voice for Tony Curtis' female character Josephine. Frees also dubbed the entire role of Eddie in the Disney film The Ugly Dachshund, replacing actor Dick Wessel, who had died of a sudden heart attack after completion of principal photography. Frees also dubbed Humphrey Bogart in his final film The Harder They Fall. Bogart was suffering at the time from what was later diagnosed as esophageal cancer, thus could barely be heard in some takes, hence the need for Frees to dub in his voice. He also voiced the cars in the comedy The Great Race.

Unlike many voice actors who did most of their work for one studio, Frees worked extensively with at least nine of the major animation production companies of the 20th century: Walt Disney Productions, Warner Bros. Cartoons, Walter Lantz Productions, UPA, Hanna-Barbera Productions, Filmation, Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, DePatie-Freleng Enterprises, Jay Ward Productions, Rankin/Bass, and Ruby-Spears.

Disney
Some of Frees' most memorable voices were for various Disney projects. Frees voiced Disney's Professor Ludwig Von Drake in 18 episodes of the Disney anthology television series, beginning with the first episode of the newly renamed Walt Disney's Wonderful World of Color on September 24, 1961. The character also appeared on many Disneyland Records. Von Drake's introductory cartoon, An Adventure in Color, featured "The Spectrum Song", sung by Frees as Von Drake.  A different Frees recording of this song appeared on a children's record, and was later reissued on CD.

In addition to voicing characters, Frees narrated a number of Disney cartoons, including the Disney educational short film Donald Duck in Mathmagic Land. This short originally aired in the same television episode as Von Drake's first appearance.

Frees also provided voices for numerous characters at Disney parks. He voiced the unseen "Ghost Host", or narrator, at both the Haunted Mansion Attraction and Adventure Thru Innerspace (later replaced by Star Tours) at Disneyland and Walt Disney World.
For the Pirates of the Caribbean, Frees recorded the ghost voice saying the iconic "Dead Men Tell No Tales" used in the ride, as well as lending his voice to several audio-animatronic pirates, including the Auctioneer, Magistrate Carlos, and the "Pooped Pirate" in the ride. Disney eventually issued limited edition compact discs commemorating the two rides, featuring some outtakes and unused audio tracks by Frees and others. Frees also provided narration for the Tomorrowland attraction Adventure Thru Inner Space (1967–1985) and the original Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln. Audio clips from the attractions in Frees's distinctive voice have even appeared in fireworks shows at Disneyland.

A computer-animated singing bust in Frees's likeness appeared in the 2003 film The Haunted Mansion as a tribute. Similarly, audio recordings of Frees from the Pirates of the Caribbean attraction can be heard in Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End in an homage to the ride.

Frees also had a small live-action role for Disney in the 1959 film The Shaggy Dog, playing Dr. Galvin, a military psychiatrist who attempts to understand why Mr. Daniels believes a shaggy dog can uncover a spy ring and also spoke the film's opening narration.

His other Disney credits, most of them narration for segments of the Disney anthology television series, include:

 The "Man in Space" series of shows (TV, 1954)
 From Aesop to Hans Christian Andersen (TV, 1955)
 Mars and Beyond (film, 1957)
 The Nine Lives of Elfego Baca (TV miniseries, 1958)
 Tales of Texas John Slaughter (TV miniseries, 1958)
 The Shaggy Dog (film, 1959)
 The Absent-Minded Professor (film, 1961)
 Moochie of Pop Warner Football (TV, 1960)
 The Monkey's Uncle (film, 1965)

For his contributions to the Disney legacy, Frees was honored posthumously as a Disney Legend on October 9, 2006.

Jay Ward Productions
Frees was a regular presence in Jay Ward cartoons, providing the voices of Boris Badenov (from The Rocky and Bullwinkle Show), Inspector Fenwick (from Dudley Do-Right, impersonating Eric Blore), Ape (impersonating Ronald Colman), District Commissioner Alistair and Weevil Plumtree in George of the Jungle, Baron Otto Matic in Tom Slick, Fred in Super Chicken, and the Hoppity Hooper narrator, among numerous others.

Rankin/Bass
Frees is well-remembered for providing the voices for many characters in Rankin/Bass cartoons and stop-motion animated TV specials, most notably for a number of holiday-themed specials. In 1968, he appeared as Captain Jones in the Thanksgiving special The Mouse on the Mayflower, and that Christmas he appeared as the father of the Drummer Boy, Ali, and as the three Wise Men in The Little Drummer Boy. He was also Hocus Pocus, the traffic cop, the ticket-taker, and Santa Claus in Frosty the Snowman in 1969 and played the central villain, Burgermeister Meisterburger, and his assistant Grimsley in Santa Claus Is Comin' to Town in 1970. He provided several voices, including Aeon the Terrible, for Rudolph's Shiny New Year in 1976.

Frees also voiced King Haggard's wizard Mabruk and the Cat in The Last Unicorn and provided several voices for the Jackson Five cartoon series between 1971 and 1973. He provided the voices for several J. R. R. Tolkien characters (most notably the dwarf Bombur) in Rankin/Bass animated versions of The Hobbit and The Return of the King.

George Pal
Frees portrayed the Orson Welles sound-alike radio reporter in George Pal's film The War of the Worlds (1953), where he is seen dictating into a tape recorder as the military prepares the atomic bomb for use against the invading Martians. Memorably, his character says the recording is being made "for future history... if any". Frees also provided the film's dramatic opening narration, prior to Sir Cedric Hardwicke's voice-over tour of the solar system.

Frees subsequently provided the apocalyptic voice for the "talking rings" in Pal's later film The Time Machine (1960), in which he explains the ultimate fate of humanity from which the time traveler realizes the origin of the Morlocks and Eloi.

Producer Pal later put Frees to work again in his fantasy film Atlantis, the Lost Continent (also 1960) and doing the opening voice-over narration for Pal's Doc Savage (1975) film.

Frees did the narration for the George Pal documentary The Fantasy Film Worlds of George Pal (1985), written, produced, and directed by Arnold Leibovit. Two years later, Frees provided the voice for Arnie the Dinosaur and the Pillsbury Doughboy in The Puppetoon Movie (1987), also produced and directed by Leibovit.

Other voice work
The talented actor voiced several characters, including three of the main characters in the US versions of Belvision's Hergé's Adventures of Tintin cartoons, based on the books by Hergé.

He had also done work for Hanna-Barbera in their Tom and Jerry shorts at MGM. In the 1956 Cinemascope Tom and Jerry cartoon, Blue Cat Blues, he was Jerry's voice who narrated the short; he had also voiced Jerry's cousin Muscles in Jerry's Cousin five years earlier and the cannibals in the Tom and Jerry episode His Mouse Friday where he said the lines "Mmmmm, barbecued cat!" and "Mmmmm, barbecued mouse!"

At the MGM Animation studio, he also did multiple voice roles for the legendary Tex Avery's films, notably playing every role in Cellbound in 1955.

Frees worked with Spike Jones on his 1960 album "Omnibust", appearing as announcer "Billy Playtex" and several other characters on "The Late Late Late Late Movies, Part I and II".

From October 1961 through September 1962, Paul Frees provided the voice for the shady lawyer named Judge Oliver Wendell Clutch, a weasel on the animated program Calvin and the Colonel starring the voices of Freeman Gosden and Charles Correll, the series was an animated television remake of their radio series Amos 'n Andy.

For the 1962 Christmas special Mister Magoo's Christmas Carol, produced by UPA, Paul Frees voiced several characters, including Fezziwig, the Charity Man, two of the opportunists who steal from the dead man (Eyepatch Man and Tall Tophat Man) and Mister Magoo's Broadway theatre director. He subsequently provided numerous voices for further cartoons in the series that followed, The Famous Adventures of Mr. Magoo.

Frees provided the voices of both John Lennon and George Harrison in the 1965 The Beatles cartoon series, the narrator, Big D and Fluid Man in the 1966 cartoon series, Frankenstein Jr. and The Impossibles and of The Thing in the 1967 series Fantastic Four, as well as President James Norcross in the 1967 cartoon series Super President. He played several rolesnarrator, Chef of State, the judges and the bailiffin the George Lucas / John Korty animated film, Twice Upon a Time.

Frees provided the voice-over for the trailer to the 1971 Clint Eastwood thriller, Play Misty for Me.

In television commercials, he was the voice of the Pillsbury Doughboy, the 7-Up bird Fresh-Up Freddie, Froot Loops spokesbird Toucan Sam (previously voiced by Mel Blanc, later voiced by Maurice LaMarche), Boo-Berry in the series of monster cereal commercials, and The Farmer who helps The Little Green Sprout, (voiced by Ike Eisenmann), who called out to the Jolly Green Giant, "So what's new besides ho-ho-ho, Green Giant?" He also played a British detective in a 1971 non-animated television commercial for Taster's Choice coffee.

Frees narrated many live action films and television series, including Naked City (1958–1963). Frees also provided the voice of the eccentric billionaire John Beresford Tipton, always seated in his chair with his back to the viewer while talking to his employee Michael Anthony (fellow voice-artist Marvin Miller), on the dramatic series The Millionaire.

He was the narrator at the beginning of the film The Disorderly Orderly starring Jerry Lewis. He also "looped" an actor's voice in the film The Ladies Man, also starring Jerry Lewis.

In 1980, Frees was hired by Program Director Hy Lit to be the voice of radio station WKXW (Kicks 101 1/2).

Frees had a wide range of other roles, usually heard but not seen, and frequently without screen credit. The resonance of his natural voice was similar to that of Orson Welles, and he performed a Welles impression several times. Some highlights of his voice work:

 Narrator for The Manchurian Candidate
 Narrated 16 episodes of the NBC science fiction television series Steve Canyon, starring Dean Fredericks (1958–1959)
 Narrated the documentary about J. Robert Oppenheimer, The Day After Trinity (1980)
 The Peter Lorre voice in the 1947 Spike Jones RCA Victor recording of the song "My Old Flame". When talking softly, the voice sounds much like Lorre. When the character segués into a manic rant for a few lines, the voice anticipates the Ludwig Von Drake characterization. Frees appeared on several other Spike Jones recordings including "Pop Corn Sack" also from 1947 in which he provided the voices of Charles Boyer, Edward G. Robinson, Katharine Hepburn and Al Jolson.
 Dialog looping for French actor Jacques Roux, among other uncredited voice work, in the 1963 film The List of Adrian Messenger

Other credits
Although Frees was primarily known for his voice work (like Mel Blanc, he was known in the industry as "The Man of a Thousand Voices"), he was also a songwriter and screenwriter. His most notable screenwriting work was the little-seen 1960 film The Beatniks, a screed against the then-rising Beat counterculture in the vein of Reefer Madness. In 1992, the film was mocked on an episode of Mystery Science Theater 3000.

On rare occasions, Frees appeared on-camera, usually in minor roles. In 1954, he appeared in the film noir classic Suddenly starring Frank Sinatra and Sterling Hayden.  He played a scientist in The Thing from Another World, a death-row priest in A Place in the Sun, and French fur trader McMasters in The Big Sky. In 1955, he appeared as an irate husband suing his wife (played by Ann Doran) for alimony in an episode of CBS's sitcom The Ray Milland Show; and, in 1957, in an uncredited role as a helicopter pilot in the 1957 science-fiction movie, Beginning of the End.

In Jet Pilot, Frees plays a menacing Soviet officer whose job is to watchdog pilot Janet Leigh, but instead manages to eject himself from a parked jet, enabling Leigh to rescue John Wayne and fly back to the West. In the 1970 film Patton, Frees provided the voices of a war correspondent interviewing Patton while Patton rides his horse, and of a member of Patton's staff, as well as voice-overs for several other actors, including the Moroccan official hosting a troop review for Patton.  Frees is also heard in Tora! Tora! Tora! as the English-language voice of the Japanese ambassador to the United States. He also does the final narration in Beneath the Planet of the Apes, the first sequel to Planet of the Apes.

Legacy
Since Frees's death, voice actor Corey Burton has provided voices for some of Frees's characters. Burton, who met Frees in the late 1970s, has often re-recorded dialogue for some Disneyland attractions originally recorded by Frees. In some cases, Frees's original, pre-digital recordings had simply deteriorated over time, and in others the dialogue had been rewritten to reflect plot changes or introduce new characters, such as the "Stuffed Pirate" replacing Frees's "Pooped Pirate" in the Pirates of the Caribbean ride in 1997. Dialogue that was slightly rewritten to reflect newer safety standards is performed by actors Joe Leahy (English) and Fabio Rodriguez (Spanish). In 2001, Burton provided a Paul Frees impression for the new "Ghost Host" of Haunted Mansion Holiday, a seasonal, holiday-themed overlay for the Haunted Mansion attraction. Burton also recorded Frees's Ghost Host lines for Walt Disney Pictures' 2003 film adaptation of the ride.

Personal life
Frees was married five times. His first marriage was to Anelle McCloud, from 1943 until her death in 1945. He then married Kleda June Hansen in 1947, but they divorced three years later in 1950. His third wife was Joyce Schultz. They married in 1951 and had two childrena son, Fred; and a daughter, Sabrinabefore eventually divorcing. His fourth marriage was to Jeri J. Cole in 1967, but they divorced after just two years, in 1969. Beverly T. Marlow was Frees's fifth wife. They married in 1971 but were estranged at the time of his death fifteen years later.

Death
For the last two years of his life, Frees suffered from multiple ailments, including arthritis, diabetes, and loss of vision, and had mentioned to friends that he was in near constant pain. Frees died at his home in Tiburon, California on November 2, 1986, at the age of 66, from a self-administered overdose of pain medication. Though the official cause of death is listed as suicide, his agent issued a press release stating that he died from heart failure.

Frees was survived by his son and daughter, and by Marlow, who had moved to Mesa, Arizona. His body was cremated and his ashes scattered over the Pacific Ocean.
