Curtis Michael Hennig (March 28, 1958 – February 10, 2003), better known by the ring name Mr. Perfect, was an American professional wrestler. He performed under his real name for promotions including the American Wrestling Association (AWA), the World Wrestling Federation (WWF; now WWE), World Championship Wrestling (WCW), and NWA Total Nonstop Action. Hennig was the son of wrestler Larry "The Axe" Hennig and the father of wrestler Curtis Axel.

Hennig debuted in 1980 and won multiple championships in both Pacific Northwest Wrestling (PNW) and the AWA during the decade. He gained particular attention when he defeated Nick Bockwinkel for the AWA World Heavyweight Championship in 1987, with his 373-day reign being the seventh-longest in history. Hennig moved to the WWF thereafter, where he feuded with Hulk Hogan over the WWF Championship, and won the WWF Intercontinental Heavyweight Championship twice, becoming the longest-reigning titleholder of the 1990s. In addition to winning multiple titles in WCW during the late 1990s, Hennig challenged for the WCW World Heavyweight Championship on pay-per-view (PPV), and led stable and country music group the West Texas Rednecks, who recorded the popular tongue-in-cheek song, "Rap Is Crap". During a stint with the World Wrestling Council (WWC) in 2000, he won the WWC Universal Heavyweight Championship. Hennig returned to the WWF/E for a brief period in 2002, being one of the last three men remaining at that year's Royal Rumble. He later headlined multiple PPV events for TNA, in contention for the NWA World Heavyweight Championship, prior to his death on February 10, 2003.

WWE credited Hennig for raising the standard of technical wrestling in that company, while professional wrestling journalists Bob Ryder and Dave Scherer, in a 2000 publication, recognized him as "one of the best all-round competitors this business has ever produced". Hennig was posthumously inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2007 by former Major League Baseball player and longtime friend Wade Boggs. Hulk Hogan remarked, "Everybody would check their egos at the door when they came to a building that Curt Hennig was in, because you couldn't out-work him, you couldn't outshine him, and you couldn't out-perform him. He was the best of the best."

Early life

Curt Hennig was born on March 28, 1958, the son of professional wrestler Larry "The Axe" Hennig. Hennig was childhood friends with fellow wrestler Rick Rude as well as Paul Shulte of Manchester, Vermont who was also known as "Mr. Perfect". They attended Robbinsdale High School in his hometown of Robbinsdale, Minnesota, alongside Tom Zenk, Brady Boone, Nikita Koloff, John Nord, Road Warrior Hawk, and Barry Darsow, who all became professional wrestlers.

Professional wrestling career

American Wrestling Association (1980–1982)
Known as "Cool" Curt Hennig, he began his career on January 30, 1980, in the American Wrestling Association (AWA), the promotion which had made his father, Larry "The Axe" Hennig a star.

World Wrestling Federation (1981–1983)
Hennig started his WWF career in 1981. His first victory was against Johnny Rodz. He established himself as a promising young performer against the likes of "Playboy" Buddy Rose, Greg Valentine and Killer Khan. Eventually, he was paired-up in tag team matches with another young upstart, Eddie Gilbert, himself the son of a wrestling legend (Tommy Gilbert).

Pacific Northwest Wrestling (1982–1988)
In 1982, Hennig teamed up with his father, Larry, and won the NWA Pacific Northwest Tag Team Championship defeating Rip Oliver and Matt Borne on April 27. He later won the titles with Buddy Rose and Scott McGhee in 1983. From 1984 to 1988 he made occasional appearances for the company. During this time he worked for New Japan Pro-Wrestling and various territories such as NWA St. Louis, Central States Wrestling and Continental Wrestling Association.

American Wrestling Association (1983–1988)

Hennig returned to the American Wrestling Association in 1983. He would eventually become one of the promotion's top stars in his own right, winning the AWA World Tag Team Championship with Scott Hall by defeating "Gorgeous" Jimmy Garvin and "Mr. Electricity" Steve Regal on January 18, 1986, in Albuquerque, New Mexico.

Later, he resumed his solo career in the AWA, culminating in defeating the legendary Nick Bockwinkel for the AWA World Heavyweight Championship at SuperClash on May 2, 1987, with the help of Larry Zbyszko, and turning villain in doing so. Hennig, along with his father Larry "The Axe", would engage in a long feud with Greg Gagne and his father, Verne Gagne. He began being associated with Madusa Miceli, the AWA World Women's Champion since December 27, 1987. Hennig and Madusa joined The Diamond Exchange, a stable led by Diamond Dallas Page that also included Badd Company and Colonel DeBeers.

Hennig would hold the AWA World Heavyweight Title for about 53 weeks, before losing it to Jerry Lawler on May 9, 1988. Like many other AWA stars of the time (including Hulk Hogan, Rick Martel, and The Rockers), Hennig left the AWA for the WWF with the promise of more money and broadened exposure.

World Wrestling Federation (1988–1996)

Undefeated streak (1988–1990)
Hennig returned to the WWF in mid-1988. Hennig made his televised in-ring return on the September 11 episode of All-American Wrestling, defeating enhancement talent Ron Rovishod. On the October 1 episode of Superstars, vignettes began airing on WWF television, during which he was repackaged with a new character of an arrogant braggart villain who claimed to be able to accomplish difficult tasks "perfectly", thus earning the nickname of "Mr. Perfect", which would become his ring name in 1989 and the use of his real name would be phased out. He presented himself as being superior in athletics or anything else he did. These clips showed him hitting half-court, three-point, and no-look basketball shots, bowling a score of 300, running the table in billiards, throwing then catching his own Hail Mary football pass, sinking a long golf putt, hitting home runs and making bulls-eyes in darts. Stars of various major league sports, including Wade Boggs (MLB), Steve Jordan (NFL), and Mike Modano (NHL), co-starred with Hennig in these vignettes. Hennig performed for the first time as Mr. Perfect on the October 4 episode of Prime Time Wrestling, where he defeated Jim Brunzell.

Hennig made his pay-per-view debut at Survivor Series in 1988, where he competed in a five-on-five elimination tag team match as a member of co-captain André the Giant's team, along with Rick Rude, Dino Bravo (also co-captain) and Harley Race against co-captain Jim Duggan's team of Jake Roberts (also co-captain), Ken Patera, Tito Santana and Scott Casey. Perfect survived the match with Bravo. The following year, he appeared in SummerSlam, defeating The Red Rooster in a squash match. He went undefeated on television for over a year, beating mid-card wrestlers including B. Brian Blair, Ronnie Garvin, Koko B. Ware, The Blue Blazer, The Red Rooster, Jimmy Snuka, Tito Santana, and Bret Hart throughout 1989.

On the October 7 episode of Superstars, Perfect began appearing with The Genius, an arrogant, poetry-reciting scholar on The Brother Love Show and began a rivalry with Hulk Hogan over the WWF Championship. Their rivalry heated up when Genius defeated Hogan by countout, with Hennig's assistance on November 25 Saturday Night's Main Event XXIV and the duo stole Hogan's title belt and destroyed it backstage. Perfect and Hogan wrestled on the live events, where he lost to Hogan but they did not compete on television until January 15, 1990, when Hennig received his first opportunity for the WWF Championship against Hogan at Madison Square Garden and this was his first televised match against Hogan, which he won by disqualification but not the title.

At Royal Rumble, Perfect attacked Genius's opponent Brutus Beefcake after their match, which began a feud between the two. Later in the same night, Perfect participated in the Royal Rumble match as the No. 30 entrant. He eliminated Rick Rude before making it to the final two, where he was eliminated by Hogan. Perfect's undefeated streak ended when he suffered his first pinfall loss on regional television against the Intercontinental Champion The Ultimate Warrior on March 19, at Madison Square Garden. His first loss in singles competition on national television was against Brutus Beefcake at WrestleMania VI. Hogan settled the score with Perfect with a match between the pair on April 28's Saturday Night's Main Event XXVI, in which Hogan pinned Perfect for the first time on television. Following his loss to Hogan, Perfect quietly ended his association with The Genius.

Intercontinental Heavyweight Champion (1990–1991)
In May 1990, Perfect participated in a tournament for the Intercontinental Heavyweight Championship after previous champion Ultimate Warrior vacated the title upon winning the WWF Championship at WrestleMania VI. Hennig was booked to win the tournament for the vacant title by defeating Jimmy Snuka in the quarter-finals on the May 5 episode of Superstars and two-time Intercontinental Heavyweight Champion Tito Santana in the finals on May 19's episode of Superstars. After his title win, Perfect enlisted Bobby Heenan as his "perfect" manager and made a successful title defense against Santana on July 28's Saturday Night's Main Event XXVII. Hennig was scheduled to defend the title against Brutus Beefcake at SummerSlam, stemming from his loss to Beefcake at WrestleMania but Beefcake suffered an injury and The Texas Tornado substituted for Beefcake and challenged Hennig to a title match for SummerSlam on August 11's episode of Superstars, which Perfect accepted on the following week's Superstars. Perfect dropped the championship to Texas Tornado at SummerSlam. Hennig was chosen to lead Demolition as "The Perfect Team" against The Warriors (Ultimate Warrior, Texas Tornado and Legion of Doom) in a four-on-four elimination tag team match at the Survivor Series pay-per-view, where Hennig's team lost. He unsuccessfully challenged Texas Tornado in a rematch for the Intercontinental Championship on November 24 MSG Network special, before regaining the title by defeating Texas Tornado on the December 15 episode of Superstars, with help from Ted DiBiase. Perfect defended the title against Texas Tornado in a rematch on the February 2, 1991, episode of Superstars, where he retained the title by losing via countout.

Perfect made his next title defense against Big Boss Man at WrestleMania VII, where he retained the title by losing via disqualification after the challenger was attacked by Haku and The Barbarian. The following month, Perfect won a battle royal on April 27's Saturday Night's Main Event by last eliminating Greg Valentine, which led to a match between the two for Perfect's title on the May 14 episode of Prime Time Wrestling, where Perfect retained the title via disqualification. On a June 15 episode of Superstars, Bobby Heenan retired as a manager and introduced The Coach as Hennig's new manager. Hennig began a rivalry with British Bulldog but suffered a back injury in late June, which led to the rivalry being wrapped up. Bret Hart was announced as his next challenger on the July 13 episode of Superstars, and in the meantime Hennig was held out of all house shows, usually replaced by Typhoon. On television, he wrestled a few preliminary opponents, but to avoid stressing his back with the Perfectplex, adopted the gimmick of throwing his opposition out of the ring in disgust and defeating them by countout. Perfect lost the title to Hart at SummerSlam and a broken tailbone and bulged discs forced him to retire from the ring.

Various storylines and departure (1991–1996)
Hennig spent the following year recovering from his injury. He returned to television on November 23 episode of Superstars where he became Ric Flair's "executive consultant". The following week on Superstars, Perfect became a color commentator of the show for the next full year, acting as a suitable villainous foil to Vince McMahon's play-by-play. During this period, Perfect assisted Flair in winning matches and managed him to two World Heavyweight Championship reigns in 1992. By the fall of 1992, Perfect and Flair were in the midst of a rivalry with Randy Savage, building to a tag team match at Survivor Series where Flair and Razor Ramon would face Savage and Ultimate Warrior. However, Warrior was released from the WWF weeks prior to the event. On November 16 episode of Prime Time Wrestling, Savage asked Perfect to be his partner. After initially laughing off Savage's offer, Perfect was swayed by Savage's cajoling and by Bobby Heenan's degrading comments and commanding Perfect to follow orders, which would lead to Perfect turning into a fan favorite for the first time in WWF by dumping water on Heenan and accepting Savage's offer to return to the ring and become his partner at Survivor Series, much to the delight of the Prime Time Wrestling cast of Hillbilly Jim, Jim Duggan, and Vince McMahon. Hennig made his return to the ring at Survivor Series, where Hennig and Savage won their match.

Perfect began a high-profile rivalry with Flair. He made his return to singles competition on the January 2, 1993, episode of Superstars, where he defeated The Berzerker. Hennig participated in the 1993 Royal Rumble match to determine the No. 1 contender for the WWF Championship at WrestleMania IX. He eliminated Flair, Skinner and Jerry Lawler until he was eliminated by Ted DiBiase, Koko B. Ware and Lawler. Hennig defeated Flair the next night on Monday Night Raw in a match where the loser would be forced to leave WWF. As a result, Flair left WWF. He then went on to feud with the debuting Lex Luger, who berated Perfect during his promos. Luger won their match at WrestleMania IX though both of Perfect's feet were clearly between the ropes. Afterwards, Perfect chased Luger backstage where he was jumped from behind by Luger's ally Shawn Michaels. As a result, Perfect began a rivalry with Michaels.

During this time, Hennig qualified for the first-ever televised King of the Ring tournament by defeating Doink the Clown. At King of the Ring, Perfect defeated Mr. Hughes in the quarter-finals but lost to eventual winner Bret Hart in the semi-finals. Perfect competed against Shawn Michaels for the Intercontinental Championship at SummerSlam, where Perfect lost by countout due to interference from Michaels' new bodyguard Diesel. Hennig's last televised match in WWF was on November 7 episode of Wrestling Challenge, where he defeated Iron Mike Sharpe. He was set to participate as a member of Razor Ramon's team at Survivor Series, but was replaced in the match by Randy Savage. Ramon took the microphone before the match saying Perfect was "such a Perfect partner" that he tagged out before the match had even begun.

Perfect made his surprise return to WWF at WrestleMania X on March 20, 1994, where he was the special guest referee for the WWF Championship match between Lex Luger and Yokozuna. Perfect disqualified Luger after Luger manhandled Perfect, who was tending to Yokozuna's stricken managers Jim Cornette and Mr. Fuji instead of counting the pinfall and turned heel again. Perfect was set to start another rivalry with Luger, during which he explained that he screwed Luger because of Luger's illegal win over Perfect the previous year at WrestleMania IX. However, plans were scrapped after Hennig's back problems flared up again. He left the WWF in the spring of 1994.

Hennig took a year off to recover from a back injury until he returned to the company as a color commentator at the Survivor Series pay-per-view in 1995. The following weekend, Jerry Lawler announced Perfect as his replacement on Superstars, his second stint as a color commentator on the show with Vince McMahon, this time with Jim Ross added as the analyst. Later in 1996, McMahon left and Ross switched to the play-by-play role. Perfect also did color commentary at Royal Rumble, SummerSlam and In Your House 10: Mind Games pay-per-views. Perfect also served as the special guest referee for the WWF Championship match between Shawn Michaels and British Bulldog at June's King of the Ring pay-per-view.

In mid-1996, Hennig was placed in an angle with Hunter Hearst Helmsley, where he would come out to the ringside during Helmsley's matches and steal his female escorts, which would often cause a distraction for Helmsley and affect his performance in matches. During the rivalry, Perfect helped Marc Mero in winning the Intercontinental Championship from Faarooq and assisted him in retaining the title against Goldust at In Your House 11: Buried Alive. The following night on Raw, Perfect was initially going to make his wrestling comeback on Helmsley, but was attacked by Helmsley backstage just moments before their match. It appeared Helmsley's attack left Perfect injured and unable to compete. This all turned out to be a ruse for the purpose of suckering Mero into defending his title against Helmsley. With help from Perfect, Helmsley won the title from Mero. Perfect began to serve as a mentor to Helmsley and accompanied Helmsley to the ring. Perfect left the WWF once again shortly before Survivor Series, making his last televised appearance on November 5 episode of Raw.

World Championship Wrestling (1997–2000)

The Four Horsemen; New World Order (1997–1999)

Hennig signed with World Championship Wrestling (WCW) in mid-1997. Since his Mr. Perfect ring name was trademarked by the WWF, he returned to competing under his real name. He debuted in WCW as a fan favorite on the June 30 episode of Monday Nitro, during a brawl which erupted after the main event. His first match in the company took place at July's Bash at the Beach pay-per-view where he became Diamond Dallas Page's mystery tag team partner against nWo members Randy Savage and Scott Hall. Hennig ended up turning on Page costing them the match. As a result, Hennig began a rivalry with Page, defeating him in a match at Road Wild. Hennig continued to use the fisherman suplex as his finishing move, renaming it Hennig-Plex. Shortly after his debut, he became a top favorite of both Four Horsemen and the New World Order (nWo) as both factions showed interest in recruiting him. He ultimately joined the Four Horsemen, taking the spot of the retiring Arn Anderson. Hennig replied to Anderson's invitation by saying "It would be a privilege." Anderson's plea that Hennig takes "his spot" was the subject of the following week's parody of the Horsemen by the nWo, which led to the WarGames match. At Fall Brawl, Hennig was allegedly jumped backstage by the nWo before the WarGames match and came to ringside mid-match with his arm in a sling. The whole thing turned out to be a setup as Hennig betrayed the Horsemen and joined the nWo, handcuffing the other Horsemen to the cage and then slamming the steel cage door into Ric Flair's head, afterward claiming he had "destroyed the Horseman" and as a further slap to Flair, claimed to be "the wrestler that made Minnesota famous", thus becoming a villain. The following night on Nitro, Hennig won the United States Heavyweight Championship by defeating Horseman Steve McMichael. Hennig held the title for the next three months, during which he successfully defended the title against Flair in a standard wrestling match at Halloween Havoc and a no disqualification match at World War 3, before dropping the title to Diamond Dallas Page at Starrcade.

In the fall of 1997, Hennig was joined by his childhood best friend Rick Rude in the nWo. In 1998, Hennig and Rude were put into a rivalry with Bret Hart and his relatives British Bulldog and Jim Neidhart, during which both teams competed against each other in several matches throughout the first half of 1998. Hennig lost to Hart at Uncensored and defeated Bulldog at Spring Stampede.

He was sidelined due to a knee injury in mid-1998. During this time, the nWo broke into two different factions, the nWo Wolfpac and nWo Hollywood, both Hennig and Rude joined Kevin Nash's fan-favorite Wolfpac group. However, the two villains did not really fit in with the fan-favorite Wolfpac faction, especially when Rude would still get on the microphone and tell the fans to shut up. Hennig was scheduled to wrestle Goldberg for the United States Heavyweight Championship at June's The Great American Bash pay-per-view, but he failed to compete due to injury, so he asked Konnan to replace him. Konnan lost the match, and afterward both Hennig and Rude attacked him, removing themselves from the Wolfpac and joining nWo Hollywood. The following month, Goldberg won the World Heavyweight Championship and Hennig, despite his injury, faced Goldberg for the title in a losing effort at Bash at the Beach.

In the fall of 1998, Hennig began feuding with Horseman Dean Malenko over his betrayal of the Four Horsemen the previous year, which resulted in a match between the pair at September's Fall Brawl pay-per-view, which Hennig lost. After the loss, Hennig was taken off television to recover from his knee injury. He returned to WCW at the Starrcade event in December to aid Eric Bischoff in defeating Ric Flair. Hennig joined forces with Barry Windham to take on Flair and his son David in a tag team match at Souled Out in 1999, which Hennig's team lost. In 1999, both nWo factions reunited and Hennig was placed in the nWo B-Team, a group consisting of mid-card wrestlers of the nWo. However, he was kicked out of the group after speaking against the leaders on the January 25 episode of Nitro.

West Texas Rednecks and departure (1999–2000)

Hennig formed a tag team with Barry Windham and continued the rivalry with The Four Horsemen. Hennig and Windham were placed in a tournament for the vacated World Tag Team Championship, which they won by defeating Horsemen Chris Benoit and Dean Malenko at SuperBrawl IX. Hennig and Windham held the tag titles for a month, before losing to Benoit and Malenko in a lumberjack match, the following month at Uncensored, after Arn Anderson hit Hennig with a tire iron. Hennig competed against Hollywood Hogan in a losing effort the main event of the March 18 episode of Thunder after Horace saved Hogan from a Hennig-Plex. In May, Hennig formed a new faction called The West Texas Rednecks with Windham, Barry's brother, Kendall Windham, and Bobby Duncum, Jr. The group members were presented as southern country musicians. They began feuding with rapper Master P's No Limit Soldiers and recorded an infamous country song titled "Rap is Crap." During the rivalry, Hennig and Duncum lost to Konnan and Rey Mysterio Jr. of the No Limit Soldiers in a tag team match on June 13 at The Great American Bash. Less than a month later, the Rednecks lost to the Soldiers once again in an elimination tag team match at Bash at the Beach on July 11. Rednecks were intended to be villains but the southern WCW fans cheered them instead of the Soldiers, resulting in the angle being dropped. The Rednecks made their final pay-per-view appearance at Road Wild on August 14, where Hennig, Barry and Duncum lost to The Revolution in a six-man tag team match.

After the Rednecks disbanded, Hennig began a storyline, in which he stated that he was following orders from "the powers that be" that if he lost any match by pinfall, he must retire. He participated in a tournament to crown the new World Heavyweight Champion, during which he defeated Disco Inferno in the first round but lost to Jeff Jarrett in the second round. He was forced to retire after losing a retirement match against Buff Bagwell at Mayhem. He was reinstated by the powers that be a month later, however, and joined forces with Creative Control, during which the trio defeated Harlem Heat and Midnight at Starrcade.

He remained on the WCW television, continuing to make sporadic appearances with the company. He entered a feud with Shawn Stasiak in the spring of 2000, after Stasiak referred to himself as "The Perfect One" which was a ripoff of Hennig's "Mr. Perfect" character and even used entrance music composed to sound like Mr. Perfect's theme song. Hennig lost to Stasiak at Slamboree. His last televised match in WCW was against Chris Harris on the May 20 episode of Worldwide, which Hennig won. Hennig left WCW after his contract expired in the summer of 2000.

Various promotions (2000–2001)
After leaving World Championship Wrestling, in summer 2000 Hennig appeared with the Australian i-Generation Superstars of Wrestling promotion, where he held the i-Generation World Heavyweight Championship on two occasions. Following his appearances in Australia, he began appearing with the World Wrestling Council in Puerto Rico, briefly winning the WWC Universal Heavyweight Championship from Carly Colon. He appeared with the WWC until January 2001. In January 2001, Hennig made a one-night appearance in Japan with All-Japan Pro Wrestling at its King's Road New Century 2001 event, taking part in a six-man tag team match in the Tokyo Dome.

In mid-2001, Hennig made a handful of appearances with Harley Race's World League Wrestling promotion. He then wrestled sporadically on the independent circuit until November 2001, when he joined the newly-formed Xcitement Wrestling Federation. He wrestled for the XWF for the remainder of the year, facing opponents including Buff Bagwell and Vampiro. In December 2001, he made two further appearances with the World Wrestling Council.

World Wrestling Federation (2002)

During the buildup for January's Royal Rumble, it was announced that Hennig would be returning as one of the 30 combatants. Hennig, again billed as "Mr. Perfect" (although his real name was widely acknowledged), entered the Royal Rumble at No. 25, and was one of the final three competitors before being eliminated by eventual winner Triple H. Perfect made a strong showing at the Rumble, hitting the Perfect-Plex on Kurt Angle and holding his own with the WWF's best at the time. His performance, along with the positive reaction of the Atlanta crowd, earned Hennig a full-time contract with the WWF. Perfect appeared the next night on Raw in a match with Val Venis. He then had short feuds with Stone Cold Steve Austin and Rob Van Dam before forming a tag team with Shawn Stasiak at house shows throughout March and April as well as a tag team on television with Big Boss Man. Hennig was drafted to Raw during the first ever WWF Draft. Hennig's final televised WWE match took place on the May 12 edition of Heat (taped May 6) where he was defeated by Matt Hardy. He also participated in a dark match at the Insurrextion on May 4, 2002, defeating Goldust. Hennig was released from the company on May 7, 2002, due to a physical confrontation with Brock Lesnar on the return flight from the pay-per-view. Among other incidents of drunkenness, the tussle took place on the infamous "Plane Ride from Hell". According to Rob Van Dam and Tommy Dreamer on the Dark Side of the Ring, Hennig pranked Lesnar by slapping shaving cream on his head, which started the scuffle and almost opened the emergency exit door.

NWA Total Nonstop Action (2002–2003)
After being released from WWE, he went on to work for NWA Total Nonstop Action. In TNA, he would wrestle three matches for the NWA World Heavyweight Championship (two against Ron Killings and one against Jeff Jarrett), but didn't win the title. Teaming with B.G. James, he also had a title match for the NWA World Tag Team Championship against Disciples of the New Church but failed to win the titles. Hennig wrestled his last match on January 8, 2003, defeating David Flair in a "Axehandle on a Pole match".

Personal life
Hennig was married to Leonice Leonard. They had four children: Joseph, Amy, Kaite, and Hank. Joseph and Amy are professional wrestlers. In addition to his wife and four children, Hennig was survived by his parents, Larry and Irene; two brothers, Randy and Jesse; and two sisters, Sandra and Susan.

Death
On February 10, 2003, Hennig was found dead in a Brandon, Florida, hotel room, at the age of 44, six weeks away from his 45th birthday. The Hillsborough County Medical Examiner's Office declared acute cocaine intoxication to be the cause of his death. It was stated by his father that steroids and painkillers also contributed to his death.

Legacy
WWE aired a video tribute as well as words from friends and former co-workers Jerry Lawler and Jim Ross on Raw following the news of Hennig's death. TNA paid tribute to Hennig by displaying his wrestling singlet and a framed photo as he was employed by TNA at the time of his death. A tribute song about Hennig, "My Perfect Friend", was featured on the 2003 "Macho Man" Randy Savage album Be a Man.

Other peers including Hulk Hogan, Ric Flair, Bret Hart, Shawn Michaels, and Kevin Nash have also commended Hennig's in-ring talents. During his WWE Hall of Fame speech, Bret Hart spoke highly of Hennig, stating: "Anytime I wrestled Curt was basically a night off", referring to Hennig's ability to wrestle well and safely in the ring. Hennig's widow, Leonice, signed a WWE Legends contract on her husband's behalf.

Wade Boggs, who appeared in a vignette with Hennig and was a friend of his, inducted him into the WWE Hall of Fame on March 31, 2007. His wife, his four children, and his parents accepted the award on his behalf. On July 4, 2007, Hennig was posthumously inducted into the George Tragos/Lou Thesz Professional Wrestling Hall of Fame and Museum in Waterloo, Iowa. His father, who was inducted the prior year, represented him at the event.

On September 9, 2008, WWE released a two-disc DVD set focused on Hennig titled The Life and Times of Mr. Perfect. Promotion for the video included Charlie Haas spoofing Hennig's memorable sports vignettes at a Dave & Buster's on Raw. Finding that he was incapable of performing those feats, Haas decided "there was only one Mr. Perfect." The week after the DVD's release, its first week possible, it went to number one on the Billboard Recreational Sports DVD sales list.

Hennig was mentioned on Raw 1000 by his old friend Bret Hart, who acted as the guest ring announcer for the night's Intercontinental title match. Hart stated that one of his best moments was winning his first ever Intercontinental title from Hennig, and described him as "one of the greatest superstars who ever lived".

Hennig's son Joe used the ring name Curtis Axel, representing his father's first name and his grandfather's nickname, respectively. He then went on to win the Intercontinental Championship in 2013 at Payback on Father's day, and he dedicated his victory to his father. This title win makes them the first, and only, father-son duo to hold the championship.

Hennig was inducted into the Professional Wrestling Hall of Fame in Amsterdam, New York in 2015 by his son Joe.

Nicolas François de Neufchâteau (; 17 April 175010 January 1828) was a French statesman, poet, and agricultural scientist.

Biography

Early years
Born at Saffais, in Meurthe-et-Moselle, the son of a schoolteacher, he studied at the college of Neufchâteau in the Vosges, and at the age of fourteen published a volume of poetry which obtained the interest of Voltaire. When only sixteen, he was elected member of some of the main academies of France. In 1783 he was named procureur-général to the council of Saint Domingue.
He had previously been engaged on a translation of Ariosto, which he finished before his return to France five years afterwards, but it was destroyed during the shipwreck which occurred during his voyage home.

Revolution
During the French Revolution, Neufchâteau was elected deputy supplant to the National Assembly, charged with the organization of the département of the Vosges, and elected later to the Legislative Assembly, of which he first became secretary and then president.
In 1793 he was imprisoned on account of his supposed political sentiments, as they were deduced from his drama Paméla ou la vertu récompensée (Théâtre de la Nation, 1 August 1793), but was released the following year with the start of the Thermidorian Reaction.

Directory and Napoleon
In 1797, he became Minister of the Interior, distinguishing himself by his thorough administration. It is Neufchâteau who initiated the French system of inland navigation. He inaugurated the museum of the Louvre and was one of the promoters of the Exposition des produits de l'industrie française, the first universal exhibition of industrial products. He replaced Lazare Carnot as a member of the French Directory, a position he held between 9 September 1797, and 23 April 1798.

From 1804 to 1806 he was president of the Sénat conservateur, coinciding with the establishment of the First Empire – his office implied that he was the one to solicit Napoleon Bonaparte to assume the title of Emperor. In 1803, he was admitted to the Académie française, and in 1808 he received the dignity of count. Retiring from public life in 1814, after the Bourbon Restoration, he occupied himself chiefly with the study of agriculture until his death.

Works
Neufchâteau had multiple accomplishments, and interested himself in a great variety of subjects, but his fame rests mostly on what he did as a statesman for the encouragement and development of the industries of France. His late poetical productions are not judged to be as original as his youth oeuvre.
He was a noted grammarian and literary critic, as is witnessed by his editions of the Lettres provinciales and Pensées of Blaise Pascal (Paris, 1822 and 1826) and Alain-René Lesage's Gil Blas (Paris, 1820). He was also the author of a large number of works on agriculture.

La bataille de Four Lakes est un affrontement de la guerre des Cœurs d'Alène qui eut lieu le  à proximité de la ville actuelle de Spokane dans l'État de Washington.

Après la défaite du lieutenant-colonel Edward Steptoe en  contre les Amérindiens, une force de l'armée américaine composée d'environ  et menée par le colonel George Wright se mit en route pour une expédition punitive visant à soumettre les Amérindiens hostiles. Après avoir pris possession d'une colline où étaient postés les Amérindiens, Wright parvint à les attirer en terrain découvert où l'artillerie et les nouveaux fusils de l'armée causèrent de lourdes pertes dans les rangs ennemis, avant que la cavalerie ne charge le reste des guerriers et ne les mette en fuite.

No Brasil, o garimpo e o contrabando interno e externo de ouro compõe a maior parte do mercado em torno do minério, assumindo frequentemente um status jurídico ambíguo através de fraudes e dissimulações da origem ilegal do ouro, que convive junto ao mercado nitidamente clandestino. A razão dessa porosidade é, na avaliação de pesquisadores da área ambiental, o estado atual da legislação brasileira relativa à exploração de minérios, especialmente a Permissão de Lavra Garimpeira, que admite a auto-declaração sem mecanismos riogorosos de verificação de origem e avaliação ambiental da atividade, facilitando os esquemas de falsificação e lavagem das quantias, denominado esquentamento. Desse modo, os dados sobre proporção de ouro irregular comercializado são frequentemente imprecisos, considerados aquém da real magnitude. O tráfico de ouro interage com outra atividades criminosas, representa, por vezes, uma meio de lavagem de dinheiro proveniente do tráfico de drogas, armas e grilagem de terra.

Os principais destinos estrangeiros para o ouro ilegal do Brasil são paises europeus, como Reino Unido e Suiça, e o Canadá.

A responsabilidade pela fragilidade do controle institucional do comércio de ouro é por vezes atribuída diretamente à Agência Nacional de Mineração e Receita Federal, além de orgãos com função adjacentes de vigilância territorial e ambiental.

Spartacus: Vengeance


The British Rail Class 09 is a class of 0-6-0 diesel locomotive designed primarily for shunting and short-distance freight trips along branch lines.

The 26 locos are nearly identical to the more numerous Class 08 shunting locomotives but have different gearing, giving a higher top speed of 27.5 mph (44 km/h) at the expense of a lower tractive effort. They were introduced from 1959 to 1962 and latterly operated in the Southern Region of British Railways, although some of the class were originally allocated to depots in the Midlands and North. Further locomotives were converted from Class 08 in 1992 and, following this and privatisation in 1997, the class has been distributed much further afield.

Passenger operations
Although not normally considered for passenger work, Class 09s were recorded working passenger trains between Clapham Junction and Kensington Olympia when the booked Class 33 diesel was unavailable.

They were also used on Railtours which needed to depart Brighton heading along the West Coastway Line or vice versa. To achieve this the 09 worked between Brighton and Preston Park, allowing the main tour locomotive to work the train forward via the Cliftonville tunnel and Hove. The connection to the West Coastway Line at Brighton can only be used by four car trains due to the arrangement of the points and track.

Liveries

Post-Privatisation
The following liveries have been carried since the privatisation of British Rail:
 09006/007/019/024 carried Mainline Freight livery
 09008 in EWS livery
 09025 in Connex Livery
 09204 in Arriva TrainCare livery.
 09201 in Railfreight grey and is currently in the Knottingley area working at EWS Depot

Sub-classes

The original 26 locomotives (built 1959–1962) became sub-class 09/0 when further locomotives were modified from Class 08s in 1992 which became subclasses Classes 09/1 and 09/2.
There were variations, which were given the following TOPS design codes:

Class 09/0

Classes 09/1 & 09/2

Preservation
12 members of the class have been preserved

 09001 Ex DB Schenker at Peak Rail (Heritage Shunters Trust)
 D3668 (09004) at Swindon & Cricklade Railway
 D3721 (09010) at South Devon Railway
 D4100 (09012) Dick Hardy at Severn Valley Railway
 09015 at Avon Valley Railway
 09017 at National Railway Museum
 09018 at Bluebell Railway
 09019 at West Somerset Railway
 09024 at East Lancashire Railway
 D4113 (09025) at Lavender Line
 09026 Cedric Wares at Spa Valley Railway
 09107 at Severn Valley Railway

Model railways
Lima produced a range of Class 09s in OO gauge.

Hornby Railways and Bachmann have also produced 00 gauge models of Class 09 locomotives.

Markus Herbert Weske (* 16. September 1968 in Hilden) ist ein deutscher Politiker (SPD). Er war von 2012 bis 2022 Abgeordneter im Landtag von Nordrhein-Westfalen.

Biografie
Markus Weske studierte nach Abitur und Zivildienst an der Heinrich-Heine-Universität Düsseldorf mit Abschluss als Diplom-Pädagoge. Weske ist verheiratet und hat zwei Kinder.

Politik
Weske war von 1992 bis 2002 Wahlkreismitarbeiter von Brigitte Speth, anschließend von 2002 bis 2012 stellvertretender Pressesprecher der SPD-Fraktion im nordrhein-westfälischen Landtag. Bei der Landtagswahl in Nordrhein-Westfalen 2012 errang er ein Direktmandat im Landtagswahlkreis Düsseldorf I. In den 2017 gewählten Landtag zog er über die Landesliste ein. Bei der Landtagswahl 2022 verpasste er aufgrund des schwachen Ergebnisses der SPD den Wiedereinzug in den Düsseldorfer Landtag. Nach der Landtagswahl arbeitet Weske erneut als stellvertretender Pressesprecher und hat öffentlich angekündigt, bei der kommenden Wahl nicht mehr zu kandidieren, um einen Generationenwechsel zu ermöglichen.

Positionen
Gemeinsam mit seinem grünen Abgeordneten-Kollegen Martin-Sebastian Abel hat er eine Reform der "lebenslangen Sofort-Renten" für (Ober-)Bürgermeister und Landräte angestoßen. Die Initiative sieht vor, ausgeschiedenen Wahlbeamten auf Zeit – analog zu den Ansprüchen von Landtagsabgeordneten, Landes- und Bundesministern – künftig nach einem Anspruch auf ein Übergangsgeld erst mit dem Erreichen der Altersgrenze eine Pension auszuzahlen.

Catherine McAuley, RSM (29 September 1778 – 11 November 1841) was an Irish Catholic religious sister who founded the Sisters of Mercy in 1831.
The women's congregation has always been associated with teaching, especially in Ireland, where the sisters taught Catholics (and at times Protestants) at a time when education was mainly reserved for members of the established Church of Ireland.

Life
Catherine Elizabeth McAuley was born at Stormestown House in Dublin, Ireland, to James and Elinor (née Conway) McAuley. Her father died in 1783 when she was five and her mother died in 1798. Catherine went first to live with a maternal uncle, Owen Conway, and later joined her brother James and sister Mary at the home of William Armstrong, a Protestant relative on her mother's side. In 1803, McAuley became the household manager and companion of William and Catherine Callaghan, an elderly, childless, and wealthy Protestant couple and friends of the Armstrongs, at their estate in Coolock, a village northeast of Dublin. For 20 years she gave catechetical instruction to the household servants and the poor village children. Catherine Callaghan, who was raised in the Quaker tradition, died in 1819. When William Callaghan died in 1822, Catherine McAuley became the sole residuary legatee of their estate.

The House of Mercy
Catherine McAuley inherited a considerable fortune and chose to use it to build a house where she and other compassionate women could take in homeless women and children to provide care and education for them. A location was selected at the junction of Lower Baggot Street and Herbert Street, Dublin, and in June 1824, the cornerstone was laid by the Rev. Dr. Blake. As it was being refurbished, she studied current educational methods in preparation for her new endeavour. On the feast of Our Lady of Mercy, 24 September 1827, the new institution for destitute women, orphans, and schools for the poor was opened and Catherine McAuley, with two companions, undertook its management.

Sisters of Mercy
For three years, Catherine and her companions continued their work as laywomen.
Catherine McAuley never intended to found a community of religious women. Her initial intention was to assemble a lay corps of Catholic social workers. In 1828 the archbishop permitted the staff of the institute to assume a distinctive habit and to publicly visit the sick. The habit adopted was a black dress and cape of the same material reaching to the belt, a white collar, and a lace cap and veil. In the same year, the archbishop desired Miss McAuley to choose some name by which the little community might be known, and she chose that of "Sisters of Mercy", having the design of making the works of mercy the distinctive feature of the institute.

She was desirous that the members should combine the silence and prayer of the Carmelites, with the active labours of a Sister of Charity. The position of the institute was anomalous, its members were not bound by vows nor were they restrained by rules. The church (clergy and people) of the time, however, were not supportive of groups of laywomen working independently of church structures. The main concern was for the stability and continuity of the works of mercy that the women had taken on. Should any of them get married or lose interest, the poor and the orphans whom they were caring for would then be at a loss.

Catherine's clerical mentor urged her to form a religious institute. Catherine and two other women, Anna Maria Doyle and Elizabeth Harley, entered the novitiate (formation program) of the Presentation Sisters to formally prepare for life as women religious in September 1830. On 12 December 1831 they professed vows and returned to the House of Mercy. The Sisters of Mercy consider 12 December 1831 as the day of their founding as a religious community. Archbishop Daniel Murray assisted Catherine McAuley in founding the Sisters of Mercy, and professed the first three members. He then appointed Catherine Mother Superior.

A cholera epidemic hit Dublin in 1832, and Catherine agreed to staff a cholera hospital on Townsend Street.

Between 1831 and 1841 she founded additional Convents in Tullamore, Charleville, Cork, Carlow, Galway, Limerick, Birr, Bermondsey and Birmingham and branch houses in Kingstown and Booterstown.

The rule of the Sisters of Mercy was formally confirmed by Pope Gregory XVI on 6 June 1841.
Catherine lived only ten years as a Sister of Mercy, Sister Mary Catherine.

Death

Catherine McAuley died of tuberculosis on 11 November 1841 at Baggot Street, at the age of sixty-three.
At the time of her death, there were 100 Sisters of Mercy in ten foundations. Shortly thereafter, small groups of sisters left Ireland to establish new foundations on the east and west coasts of the United States, in Newfoundland, Australia, New Zealand, and Argentina.

Total worldwide membership consists of about 5,500 Sisters of Mercy, 5,000 Associates, and close to half a million partners in ministry. The Mercy International Centre in Dublin, Ireland, is the international "home" of Mercy worldwide and the mercyworld.org website is the virtual home.

In 1978, the cause for the beatification of the Servant of God Catherine McAuley was opened by Pope Paul VI. In 1990, upon recognition of her heroic virtues, Pope John Paul II declared her Venerable.

Sibel Kekilli (born 16 June 1980) is a German actress. She gained public attention after starring in the 2004 film Head-On. She won two Lolas, the most prestigious German film award, for her performances in Head-On and When We Leave (2010). Beginning in 2011, she became more widely known for her role as Shae in the HBO series Game of Thrones.

Early life
Kekilli was born and raised in Heilbronn, to a family of Turkish origin. Her parents came to Germany from Turkey in 1977, and were described by Kekilli as having a rather modern and open attitude. After completing school with excellent grades at age 16, she entered a 30-month-long combined training program to become a certified public administration specialist at the local city administration.

After successful completion of the training program, she continued to work as an administrative assistant for another two years at Heilbronn city hall, then moved to Essen, where she worked various jobs as a bouncer, cleaner, waitress, nightclub manager, saleswoman, and pornographic film actress.

Career

In 2001–2002, over a period of six months, Kekilli appeared in a number of pornographic films for various directors including Josef Baumberger and Harry S. Morgan.

In 2002, while at a shopping mall in Cologne, she was noticed by a casting director, who invited her to audition for a role in a film. She won the leading part in Head-On () against a field of 350 other hopefuls. The film was released in 2004 and was a major success, receiving several prizes at film festivals. Filming proved strenuous for Kekilli personally, and she underwent an appendectomy during filming in Turkey.

Shortly after the release of Head-On, the German tabloid newspaper Bild made public Kekilli's earlier work in pornography. This led to a public sensation, and Kekilli's parents broke off all contact with her. She received the 2004 Bambi prize for "best shooting star" for her role in Head-On. During the televised acceptance speech, she tearfully complained that she was being subject to a "dreckige Hetzkampagne" ("dirty smear campaign") and "Medienvergewaltigung" ("media rape"). Bild-Zeitung was later reprimanded by the Deutscher Presserat (German Press Council) for the manner in which it covered the story.

Kekilli starred in the Turkish coup d'état film Home Coming (Eve Dönüş) (2006), playing the wife of a man who was unjustly imprisoned and tortured. The performance won her the Best Actress award at the 2006 Antalya Golden Orange Film Festival. Also that year, she played a Jewish woman on the way to the Auschwitz concentration camp in the 2006 film The Last Train (). In 2009, she played Umay, a young Turkish woman who leaves Istanbul to return to her family in Berlin, in When We Leave (Die Fremde). She was awarded the Lola for Best Actress in 2010 for her role. In 2010, Kekilli was cast as Shae in HBO's Game of Thrones, an adaptation of George R. R. Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire novels.

In 2011, one year after first appearing in a supporting role in the long-running crime series Tatort, she became a permanent cast member as new investigator Sarah Brandt, working alongside chief investigator Klaus Borowski. She said that she was glad not to be playing a character of foreign descent, as she feels she has been typecast in the past. In 2017 she left the Tatort franchise, after 14 feature-length episodes, citing a need for change.

Personal life
Kekilli lives in Hamburg.

Since citizenship in Germany is primarily established by Jus sanguinis rather than Jus soli, she originally held Turkish rather than German citizenship, and had to apply to the Turkish government when she sought a marriage license (for a planned marriage that ultimately did not take place).

In 2017, Kekilli blocked her Instagram account from being accessed in Turkey, saying that users from that country had sent a multitude of abusive and threatening messages. She denounced the senders as "bigoted, hypocrites and full of hate".

Political activism
Kekilli supports the organization Terre des Femmes in its work against violence against women.

In December 2006, at an anti-domestic violence event run by the Turkish newspaper Hürriyet in Berlin, she stated, in German, the equivalent of "I have experienced for myself that both physical and psychological abuse are regarded as normal in a Muslim family. Sadly, violence is part of the cultural heritage in Islam." In response, the Turkish consul general left the room.

In March 2015 at an International Women's Day event at the President of Germany's residence at Schloss Bellevue, Kekilli gave a speech on violence against women in the name of honour. The speech drew wide attention and praise in Germany for its empathic message. In May 2015, Friedrich Naumann Foundation named Kekilli "Author of Freedom" for the speech.

Salur Kazan'ın Evi Yağmalanması, Dede Korkut Kitabı'nın bölümlerinden birini oluşturan öykü.

Konusu

31.şölen sırasında sarhoş olan Salur Kazan'ın ava gitmek istemesiyle başlar. Salur Kazan, dayısının karşı çıkmasına rağmen, oğlu Uruz'u çadırını koruması için bırakıp ava gider. Salur Kazan'ın yokluğunu fırsat bilen düşmanları evini basar, ailesinden olmayan Saru Kulmaş adlı kişi çadırı savunurken, Karaçuk Çoban'ın iki kardeşi de koyunlarını savunurken ölür, karısı Burla, oğlu Uruz ve annesi tutsak edilir. Av sırasında kötü bir düş gören Salur Kazan, kardeşi Kara Göne'ye başvurur, ancak Kara Göne karamsar sanrılarıyla Salur Kazan'ın korkusunu arttırır. Salur Kazan avı bırakıp çadırına döner, olanları görür ve ailesini aramaya başlar.
Hikâyede Dede Korkut'un diğer hikâyelerinde de olduğu gibi dönemin göçebe Türk kültürünün öykünün tamamında çok belirgin olduğu görülebilir. Hikâyenin karşılaştırmalı yapısı, barışçı aile kültürü ile savaşçı toplumsal eğilimler arasındaki zıtlaşmaları gösterir. Toplum genelinde savaşçı özelliğiyle saygı gören Salur Kazan'ın savaşçılığının yansıması olan av merakı ile aile içinde felakete sebep olması, toplumsal düzeyde kültürle aile düzeyinde kültürün uyumsuzluk sorunları olduğunu bize göstermektedir.

Arbutus andrachne é uma espécie de plantas com flor da família das Ericaceae, nativa da bacia do Mediterrâneo e do Médio Oriente. É um arbusto ou pequena árvore de folhagem perene e com elevada resistência à secura. A espécie é por vezes designada pelos nomes comuns de medronheiro-oriental e medronheiro-do-levante.

Descrição
Arbutus andrachne é um arbusto ou pequena árvore, perenifólio, que pode atingir uma altura de cerca de 12 metros. O tronco apresenta casca lisa que esfolia em lâminas delgadas durante o verão, deixando uma camada com cor verde-clara, que muda gradualmente para castanho-alaranjado no outono. A madeira é dura e granulada.

As folhas são oblongas, com margens inteiras ou serrilhadas, de textura coriácea, com entre 5 e 10 cm de comprimento, de coloração verde-escuras na página superior e um pouco mais claras na página inferior.

As flores hermafroditas ocorrem em inflorescências do tipo panícula, com antese na primavera, de coloração branca ou verde-amarelada, perfumadas. São polinizadas por abelhas.

Os frutos são bagas de coloração laranja-avermelhada, de forma globosa, com 1 a 1,5 cm de diâmetro e superfície granulada, que amadurecem no outono e que, quando deixados secar em local fresco, são consumidos como doces mastigáveis. Alguns estudos apontam propriedades anti-oxidantes nos frutos de A. andrachne.

Cultivo
A espécie reproduz-se fundamentalmente por semente, sendo difícil a sua reprodução por estaquia. Antes de ser semeada, a semente deve ser deixada alguns dias em água morna. O canteiro deve ser colocado em local sombreado. As sementes germinam após dois ou três meses. Cresce bem em todos os tipos de solo, exceto calcários, húmidos ou secos. De crescimento lento, tolera muito mal os transplantes. Pode ser plantada a pleno sol ou meia sombra, suportando bem frios não muito fortes (até -15 °C). Os espécimes adultos resistem bem à seca.

O cultivo para fins ornamentais é antigo e foram desenvolvidos alguns híbridos:
 Arbutus x andrachnoides Link, 1821 é um híbrido entre A. andrachne e A. unedo.
 Arbutus x thuretiana Demoly, nothosp. nov. é um híbrido entre A. andrachne e A. canariensis, assim designado em homenagem a Gustave Thuret, naturalizado no Jardin botanique de la Villa Thuret. A. x thuretiana, conhecido por sua casca castanho-avermelhada perfeitamente lisa, esfoliando na primavera para mostrar uma nova casca verde-claro, que gradualmente escurece e fica novamente avermelhada no verão.

Arbutus andrachne foi reportado  em 1765 como introduzido nos jardins britânicos por Peter Collinson, integrado na coleção que o médico Dr John Fothergill mantinha nos seus jardins e estufas em Upton House, Essex (agora West Ham Park).

É cultivada por seus frutos, pela madeira, para formação de cercas e como árvore ornamental. O uso comestível dos frutos é amplamente conhecido tendo aproveitamento nutricional como:
 Compotas e conservas
 Bebidas alcoólicas por fermentação
 Produto em calda embalado, formato que parece ser bem mais comum e conhecido nos países asiáticos.

A espécie é usado em homeopatia, para o tratamento de eczema, lombalgia e distúrbios da bexiga.

Taxonomia
Arbutus andrachne foi descrita por  Carolus Linnaeus e publicado em Sp. Pl., ed. 2, 566, 1762.

A etimologia do epíteto específico deriva do vocábulo grego clássico ἀνδράχνη, que significa "morango-silvestre", uma referência ao nome comum da árvore (árvore-morangueiro) e dos seus frutos.

O nome genérico Arbutus tem origem no termo latino que designava o medronheiro (Arbutus unedo) uma espécie morfologicamente próxima e cuja área de distribuição natural se sobrepõe na Península Balcânica e em partes da Ásia Menor.

A espécie tem uma larga sinonímia, a qual inclui:
Andrachne frutescens Ehret
Arbutus andrachne var. angutiserrata H.Lindb.
Arbutus idaea Gand.
Arbutus integrifolia Lam.
Arbutus integrifolia Sieber ex Klotzsch
Arbutus lucida Steud.

Helikopterulykken ved Turøyna (flight HKS241) fandt sted den 29. april 2016, lidt før klokken 12 lokal tid. En Eurocopter EC225 Super Puma fra flyselskabet CHC Helikopter Service styrtede ned ved Skitholmen syd for Øygarden kommune, ved øen Turøyna i den nordlige del af Fjell kommune i Hordaland. Alle ombordværende, 11 passagerer og to besætningsmedlemmer, omkom.

Ulykken
Helikopteren, en model Eurocopter EC225LP Super Puma fabrikeret af franske Airbus Helicopters, var på vej fra boreplatformen Gullfaks B i Gullfaksfeltet i Nordsøen til Bergen lufthavn, Flesland med 13 personer om bord.

Da helikopteren havde ca. fem minutter til Flesland begyndte den at blive ustabil, hvorefter rotoren løsnede sig, og den faldt omtrent 640 meter. Rotoren blev fundet på en holm, mens selve helikopterkabinen blev fundet i havet på fem til syv meters dybde. En amatørvideo vist på TV 2 Norge viste at helikopterens hovedrotor fløj gennem luften.

Forulykkede
Af de 13 som befandt sig om bord var elleve nordmænd, én brite og én italiener.

Orman, belirli yükseklikteki ve büyüklükteki çeşitli ağaçlar, çalılar, otsu bitkiler, mantarlar, mikroorganizmalar, böcekler ve hayvanlar bütününü içeren, topraklı alanda genellikle doğal yollardan oluşmuş bir kara ekosistemidir.

2000 yılı itibarıyla Dünya'nın toplam ormanlık alanı 3.869 milyon hektar olup ormanlık alanın büyüklüğünün dünyanın toplam kara alanına oranı %29,6 dır.

Ormanların birçok çeşidi olup, hepsinin farklı özellikleri vardır. Bu çeşitlere örnek olarak ekvatoral yağmur ormanları, mangrov ormanları, tropik yapraklı ormanlar vs. örnek olabilir.

Orman çeşitleri

Ekvatoral yağmur ormanı

Dünyanın en canlı, en kuvvetli ve yayılma kabiliyeti en yüksek olan orman tipidir. Orman ekosistemi bu tipte en yüksek seviyesine ulaşmıştır. Yüksek sıcaklık ve rutubetin bir araya geldiği yörelerde yağmur ormanı teşekkül etmiştir. Yağış miktarı esas itibarıyla 2000-4000 milimetre arasında değişmekle beraber bazı mıntıkalarda 10.000 milimetreye ulaşır. Ortalama yıllık sıcaklık 20-30 °C arasında değişir. En soğuk ayda 18 °C'nin altına düşmez. Mevsim değişmeleri olmadığından tropik yağmur ormanı ağaçlarında, ilkbahar ve sonbahar odunu meydana gelişi görülmez.

Büyük çoğunluğu, daimi yeşil yapraklı ağaçlardan meydana gelen tropik yağmur ormanında ağaçların tepeleri zayıf, dallanma gevşek, gövde şekilleri düzensiz, ağaç kabukları parlaktır. Dallar üzerinde epiphyte denen eğrelti, orkide gibi konuk bitkiler, çeşitli sarılıcı ve tırmanıcı bitkiler, ormanın genel görünüşünde büyük rol oynarlar. Tozlaşma, böcekler ve kelebekler yoluyla olur. Tropik yağmur ormanının bazı ağaçları gövde üzerinde de çiçeklenme yapabilirler. Olağanüstü istila edici bir kuvvete sahiptir. Tedbir alınmadığı takdirde yolları, telefon, telgraf gibi yapıları kısa zamanda kullanılmaz hale getirir.Bu orman ekvator bölgelerinde bulunur.

Endonezya Takım Adalarında, Hindistan'da, Kamerun sahilinde, Amazon mıntıkasında, Brezilya'nın doğu sahilinde, Karayip Denizi sahillerinde ve adalarında yayılış gösterir. Tropik yağmur ormanları; Mangrov tropik iğne yapraklı ormanlar ve bambu ormanları olmak üzere üç grupta toplanır.

Mangrov ormanları
Tropiklerde birçok deniz etekleri, kendine has tipik bir orman formasyonu taşırlar. Denizin ilerlemesi halinde (med), yaklaşık 10 ile 20 m arasında boy yapan ağaçların yalnız tepeleri suyun üzerinde kalır. Çekilmesi halinde (cezir) ise ağaç gövdeleri geniş nefes alma kökleri ile birlikte görülür. Tohumun çimlenmesi ve çimlenmeden sonra meydana gelen fidecikler, tohumlar henüz ağaçta iken gelişirler ve biraz büyüyünce çamur toprağa düşerek köklenirler. Bu bitkiler deniz tuzuna dayanıklı bitkilerdir.

Muson ormanları
Muson iklimi etkisi altındaki ağaçlar daimi yeşil, derimsi yahut tüylü yapraklar taşırlar. Genellikle Muson ikliminin yaygın olduğu bölgelerde yetişirler. Yazları yeşil yapraklıdırlar, kışları ise yapraklarını dökerler. Muson ormanlarının tipik ağacı teak ağacıdır. Bu ağaçlar yazın aşırı suya, kışın da kuraklığa karşı dayanıklı ağaçlardır.

Tropik iğne yapraklı ormanlar
Güneydoğu Asya'da ve Orta Amerika'da, çeşitli çam türlerinin meydana getirdikleri geniş ormanlar, bilhassa dağlık yerlerin fakir topraklarında yaygındır. Ağaç türleri; Pinus caribaea, Pinus merkusii, Callitris podocarpustur.

Tayga ormanları

Taygalar, ormanda alt tabakanın bir kısmını meydana getirirler. Geniş yayılan rizomları sayesinde sürgün vererek çoğalırlar. Dünya üzerinde 60 cinsine dağılan yaklaşık 700 türü vardır. Boyları 0,15 m ile 30 m arasında değişir. Sert karasal iklimin nemli bölgelerinde görülürler.Görüldükleri yerlere en fazla yağış yazın,en az yağış kışın düşmektedir.

Yağmur yeşili yapraklı orman (kış ormanı)

Tropik memleketlerin, yazları periyodik kurak ve çok sıcak, kışları yağmurlu iklim mıntıkalarında görülür. Bu orman şeklinin tipik özelliği, yaprak dökümünün sıcak ve kurak mevsime, esas ve vejetasyon zamanında yapraklı durumla kışa rastlamasıdır. Kış ormanı sonbaharda yeşillenir ve ilkbaharda tekrar yaprağını döker. Ağaçların boyları kısa ve büyümeleri çok yavaştır.

Hindistan, Afrika ve Güney Amerika'nın geniş sahalarını kaplarlar. Maymun, ekmek ağacı ve şemsiye akasyaları bu vejetasyonun tipik ağaçlarıdır. Arka Hindistan ve Doğu Cava ormanlarının en değerli ağacı, yaprakları (30x50) cm büyüklüğünde olan Tik ağacı(Tectona grandis)'dir.

Sert yapraklı orman

Sert yapraklı orman, yazları sıcak ve yağışça fakir, kışları ılıman, fakat yağışça zengin yörelerde yayılış gösterir. Daimi yeşil yapraklı olması, sert yapraklı ormana çok serin zamanlarda hatta kışın bile fotosentez imkânı verir. Bunun yanında yaz mevsiminin kuraklığı sebebiyle bilhassa kuru topraklarda büyümede bir nevi duraklama periyodu hasıl olur.

En tipik ağaç türleri; defne (Laurus nobilis), yabani zeytin (Olea europaea), mantar meşesi (Quercus suber), fıstık çamı"(Pinus pinea)",pırnal meşe (Quercus ilex), kermes meşesi (Quercus coccifera), Eucalyptus, adi servi (Cupressus sempervirens), kızılçam (Pinus brutia), Halep çamı (Pinus halepensis) dir.

Sert yapraklı ormanın ana mıntıkaları, başta Akdeniz iklim bölgesi olmak üzere dar bir şerit halinde Kaliforniya ve Şili'dir.

Maki dediği bitki formasyonu da sert yapraklı orman şekli içinde yer alır. Boylu veya bodur çalı görünümündeki maki Akdeniz ve kısmen Karadeniz kıyılarında, denizle dağ etekleri arasında yaygındır. Bulunduğu araziyi örtmesi ve toprağı girift olarak kaplaması erozyonu önleme ve toprak koruması bakımından büyük değer taşır.

Makinin başlıca elemanları: Yabani zeytin, defne, mersin, koca yemiş, sandal, funda, sumak, filarya, sakız, zakkum, laden, katırtırnağı, ardıç, ılgın, Keçiboynuzu tur.

Yazın yeşil yapraklı orman (Yaz ormanı)

Kuzey yarı kürenin belirli derecede serin kışlara sahip olan ve yazlarla kışlar arasında mevsim farkları gösteren enlemlerinde görülür. İnce ve yumuşak olan yaprakların sonbaharda dökülmesi kış soğuğundan ziyade, toprağın donması halinde hasıl olabilecek kuraklık tehlikesine karşı alınan bir tedbirdir. Yaz ormanları bilhassa Orta Avrupa'da, yazları zengin yağışlı mıntıkalarda görülür. Türkiye'de, denizden yüksek olmayan yerlerde yaygındır.

Yazın yeşil yapraklı ormanın ana türleri; kayın (Fagus), meşe (Quercus), akçaağaç (Acer), ıhlamur (Tilia), karaağaç (Ulmus), gürgen (Carpinus), huş (Betula), kısmen de kestane (Castanea), ceviz (Juglans) ve caryadır.

İğne yapraklı (ibreli) orman

Yayılış sahası, Kuzey yarı kürenin kışları sert, düzenli kar ve don mevsimleri gösteren yüksek enlemleridir. Yaz, kış yeşil iğne şeklini almış olan asimilasyon organları, kısa ve vejetasyon devresinde, sıcaktan en yüksek derecede faydalanmayı mümkün kılar. İğne yapraklı ormanların çoğunda gövdeler devamlı, düz ve dalsızdır. Ağır olmayan gövde odunları, bıçkı kerestesi ve yapı ağacı olarak çok kıymetlidir. Bu orman tipi, Kuzey Avrupa ve Asya'dan Kuzey Amerika'nın kuzeyine kadar, 20 enlem genişliğindeki bir şerit halinde yayılış gösterir.
dünyadaki igne yapraklı ağaçlar(yapragını dökemeyen ağaçlar):göknar,sedir,katran,arakorya,andız,ladin,çam,servi,ardıç,şemsiye agacı,lariks(melez),mazı...

Galeri ormanları

Afrika, Güney Amerika ve İç Anadolu'nun yağmurca fakir, kurak mıntıkalarında nehirler boyunca, dar veya geniş şeritler halinde oldukça kuvvetli büyüyen ormanlar meydana gelir ki, bunlara galeri ormanları denir.

Bataklık ormanları

Tropik bölgelerin geniş, sürekli su altında kalan, bataklık bölgelerinde rastlanır. Florida'nın bataklık servisi ormanları bu ormanlara örnek olarak gösterilebilir.

Ormanların yararları

Maddi faydaları

Ormanların yapacak, yakacak ve tali ürünlerle sağladığı değerlerdir. Ormanın ilk bakıştaki faydası, ürünlerin çeşitli iş ve sanayi kollarında hammadde olarak kullanılması veya tüketimi şeklinde göze çarpmaktadır. İnşaatta, kimya ve diğer sanayi kuruluşlarında, madencilik, ulaştırma, bayındırlık gibi ekonomik faaliyetlerde odun hammaddesinin kullanış yerleri gün geçtikçe artmaktadır. Odun hammaddesinin bu derece önem kazanmasının sebebi, sahip olduğu teknolojik vasıflarından ve devamlı üreyebilen; iyi bakıldığı takdirde tükenmez bir kaynağı olmasından ileri gelmektedir.

Teknolojinin gelişmesi ve elektrik enerjisi, petrol, maden kömürü gibi çeşitli enerji maddelerinin bulunmuş olmasına rağmen odun, yakacak maddesi olarak önemini sürdürmektedir. Dünya odun üretiminin hemen hemen % 50'si yakacak olarak kullanılmakta ve özellikle gelişmekte olan ülkelerde bu oran % 80'e varmaktadır.

Ormandan elde edilen tali ürünler, parfümeri, boya, ilaç, dericilik, tecrit malzemesi gibi endüstri kuruluşlarının ham maddesini meydana getirmektedir.

Türkiye'de üretilen orman tali ürünlerinin başlıcaları; reçine, sığla yağı, palamut, mazı, defne yaprağı, çam fıstığı, sumak, kestane, ıhlamur çiçeği, mahlep, meyan kökü ve keçiboynuzu vb.dir.

Kolektif faydaları
Ormanın bu yöndeki hizmetleri, maddi faydaları ile ölçülemeyecek kadar fazladır. Bulundukları yerin iklimini, kara iklim tipinden ılıman iklim tipine yöneltirler. Bu sayede don, kuraklık, aşırı sıcaklık, fırtına gibi zararları önlemek ve azaltmak suretiyle faydalı olurlar. Ormanın etkisi altında kalan sahaların nisbi rutubeti fazla olduğu gibi, akarsu ve kaynakların verimi, düzenli ve devamlıdır.

Ormanların tarımı, hayvancılığı, bayındırlık tesislerini koruması; karada ve deniz kıyılarında kumulların teşekkülüne engel olması; bataklıkları kurutmak, havaya saf oksijen vermek, gürültüyü ve hava kirliliğini önlemek suretiyle insan sağlığına yardım etmesi; çeşitli av hayvanlarını barındırıp beslemekle yurdun tabii varlığını ve güzelliğini zenginleştirmesi gibi hususlar kolektif hizmetlerinin başlıcalarını teşkil eder.

Türkiye Ormanları
2012 yılı verilerine göre Türkiye'deki orman alanı 21.678.134 hektar büyüklüğünde olup, bu oran ülke genelinin %27,6' sini kapsamaktadır.  Ormanlık alanların %99,9' u Devlet mülkiyetindeki ormanlardır. Ormanlarda yaklaşık 150 ağaç türü bulunmaktadır. Ormanlarda yayılış alanı olarak ise en fazla Kızılçam (5.854.673 hektar) yayılış göstermekte, ondan sonra alansal büyüklük sırasına göre Meşe türleri (5.152.562 hektar), Karaçam (4.693.060 hektar), Kayın (1.961.660 hektar), Sarıçam (1.479.648 hektar), Göknar (670.390 hektar), Ardıç (575.315 hektar), Sedir (463.521 hektar), Ladin (334.472 hektar), Kızılağaç (141.119 hektar), Kestane (111.044 hektar), Fıstık çamı (89.028 hektar), Gürgen (19.962 hektar), Ihlamur (11.523 hektar), Dişbudak (9.444 hektar), Kavak (6.547 hektar), Okaliptus (2.528 hektar), diğer türler (101.641 hektar) görülmektedir.
