Dozulé () is a commune in the Calvados department in the Normandy region in northern France.

Population

The apparitions and the Glorious Cross

Between 1972 and 1978, Jesus Christ is said to have appeared 49 times in Dozulé to Madeleine Aumont, a mother of five children, in the presence of her parish priest Victor L'Horset and other faithful people, and is believed to have dictated a series of messages, containing teachings and of warnings for all people, according to those who believe in them. Among them is the daily «Prayer of Dozulé». The messages are seen as an annunciation of the return of Christ. The construction of the «Glorious Cross», an illuminated Catholic cross coloured white and blue, 738m tall with arms 123m long, which means with an exact proportion of a ratio of 3 between the vertical and horizontal length, is seen as a sign of it. The followers of the messages of Dozulé believe also that they are the continuation of the Three Secrets of Fátima and that they ask, for the conversion of humanity to avoid a material and spiritual catastrophe.

International relations
Dozulé is twinned with Leonard Stanley, a village in Gloucestershire, in the United Kingdom.

Les balloon-busters étaient des pilotes militaires connus pour la destruction de ballons d'observation ennemis lors de la Première Guerre Mondiale. Ces pilotes étaient réputés pour leur intrépidité, car les ballons étaient des cibles stationnaires très lourdement défendues. Soixante-dix-sept as de l'aviation de la Première Guerre mondiale ont été crédités pour la destruction de cinq ballons ou plus, et étaient donc surnommés balloon-busters.

Un ballon d'observation était à la fois une cible vulnérable et précieuse : le ballon était amarré en position stationnaire et était maintenu en vol par de l'hydrogène inflammable, dont l'utilisation était rendue nécessaire par la rareté des réserves d'hélium parmi les puissances européennes. L'observateur d'artillerie, suspendu dans le panier en osier situé en dessous, disposait généralement d'un émetteur sans fil, de jumelles et/ou d'une caméra à longue portée. Son travail consistait à observer les actions sur la ligne de front et à l'arrière, à repérer les mouvements de troupes ennemies ou toute autre activité inhabituelle, et à déclencher des tirs d'artillerie sur toute cible notable.

Les observateurs en ballon étaient donc des cibles de grande importance pour les deux camps, en particulier avant toute action ou offensive de l'infanterie, de sorte que des pilotes de chasse ont fréquemment reçu l'ordre d'attaquer des ballons, de les détruire ou au moins de perturber leurs activités d'observation. Les pilotes des deux camps essayaient de les attaquer depuis une hauteur qui leur permettait de s'éloigner rapidement en cas d'explosion.

En raison de leur importance, les ballons étaient généralement bien défendus. Des positions de mitrailleuses et d'artillerie anti-aérienne au sol, tout d'abord, mais aussi des avions qui patrouillaient aux alentours. D'autres moyens de défense consistaient à entourer le ballon principal de ballons de barrage, à tendre des câbles dans l'air à proximité des ballons, à équiper les observateurs de mitrailleuses et à piéger les ballons avec des explosifs qui pouvaient être déclenchés à distance depuis le sol. Ces mesures faisaient des ballons des cibles très dangereuses à approcher.

Bien que les ballons aient été parfois abattus par des tirs d'armes légères, il était généralement difficile d'abattre un ballon avec des munitions classiques. Les balles ordinaires passaient relativement inoffensivement à travers le « sac » d'hydrogène, ne faisant que trouer le tissu. Les impacts sur la nacelle en osier de l'observateur pouvaient cependant tuer ce dernier.

L'une des méthodes employées était la fusée Le Prieur à combustible solide, inventée par le lieutenant français Yves Le Prieur et utilisée pour la première fois en avril 1916. Les fusées étaient fixées dans les montants des ailes d'un avion de chasse biplan et tirées à travers des tubes d'acier à l'aide d'une gâchette électrique. L'imprécision des fusées était telle que les pilotes devaient voler très près de leur cible avant de faire feu.

Ce n'est qu'avec l'arrivée sur le front occidental, en , des munitions spéciales Pomeroy (des balles incendiaires) et de les balles Buckingham à tête plate, que l'attaque de ballons d'observation devint moins dangereuse. Les fusées Le Prieur furent retirées du service en , une fois les balles incendiaires devenues massivement disponibles.

Service Employees International Union (SEIU) is a labor union representing almost 1.9 million workers in over 100 occupations in the United States and Canada. SEIU is focused on organizing workers in three sectors: healthcare (over half of members work in the healthcare field), including hospital, home care and nursing home workers; public services (government employees, including law enforcement); and property services (including janitors, security guards and food service workers).

SEIU has over 150 local branches. It is affiliated with the Strategic Organizing Center and the Canadian Labour Congress. SEIU's international headquarters is located in Washington, D.C., and it is one of the largest unions in the country.

The union is known for its strong support for Democratic candidates. It spent $28 million supporting Barack Obama in the 2008 presidential election. In 2012, SEIU was the top outside spender on Democratic campaigns, reporting almost $70 million of campaign donations, television ads and get-out-the-vote efforts in support of President Obama and other Democrats. SEIU is a major supporter of the Affordable Care Act and of increased minimum wage laws, including wage increases for fast food workers. The union is the primary backer of the Fight for $15.

History
The SEIU was founded on April 23, 1921 in Chicago as the Building Service Employees International Union (BSEIU); its first members were janitors, elevator operators, and window washers. The union's membership increased significantly with a 1934 strike in New York City's Garment District. In order to reflect its increasingly diversified membership, in 1968 the union renamed itself Service Employees International Union. In 1980 through 1984, most of the SEIU's growth came from mergers with four other unions, including the International Jewelry Workers' Union and the Drug, Hospital, and Health Care Employees Union.

In 1995, SEIU President John Sweeney was elected president of the AFL–CIO, the main confederation of labor unions in the United States. After Sweeney's departure, former social worker Andrew Stern was elected president of SEIU. In the first ten years of Stern's administration, the union's membership grew rapidly and the SEIU became the largest union in the AFL–CIO.

In 2003, SEIU was a founding member of the New Unity Partnership, an organization of unions that pushed for a greater commitment to organizing unorganized workers into unions. In 2005, SEIU was a founding member of the Change to Win Coalition, which furthered the reformist agenda, criticizing the AFL–CIO for focusing its attention on electoral politics, instead of encouraging organizing in the face of decreasing union membership. These differences boiled over on the eve of the 2005 AFL–CIO convention, as the SEIU and Teamsters announced that they were disaffiliating from the AFL–CIO. The Change to Win Federation held its founding convention in September 2005, where SEIU Secretary-Treasurer Anna Burger was announced as the organization's chair.

In the following decade, several Change to Win members disaffiliated and re-joined the AFL–CIO, leaving SEIU, the Teamsters, and the United Farm Workers as the remaining members. The SEIU's decision to break away from the AFL–CIO is considered controversial by some labor experts. After the disaffiliation, the SEIU continued to experience significant growth in membership. Stern stepped down as president of SEIU in 2010, and was replaced by Mary Kay Henry, a long-time organizer and staff member at the union, and its first female president.

Presidents of SEIU
 William Quesse (1921–1927)
 Oscar Nelson (1927)
 Jerry Horan (1927–1937)
 George Scalise (1937–1940)
 William McFetridge (1940–1960)
 David Sullivan (1960–1971)
 George Hardy (1971–1980)
 John Sweeney (1980–1995; former president of the AFL–CIO)
 Richard Cordtz (1995–1996)
 Andy Stern (1996–2010)
 Mary Kay Henry (2010–present)

Organizing and political activities

Under the Stern and Henry presidencies, SEIU has organized workers in a number of industries. In some cases, these organizing drives have been built around nationwide campaigns, like the earlier Justice for Janitors campaign. SEIU has organized large numbers of home care attendants in Oregon, Missouri, and Wisconsin,
among other states, in some cases working together with other unions.

Since 2004, the union has seen success organizing workers in Texas, Florida, Nevada, and Arizona in particular. Over 5,000 janitors organized with SEIU in Houston, Texas in 2005, which was especially significant due to the size of the campaign and its location in an area with low union density. In Florida, a high-profile strike at the University of Miami which lasted nine weeks and included a hunger strike, ended with the union winning representation of 425 janitors on campus. This victory was shortly followed by another 600 workers at North Shore Medical Center, also in Miami, voting to join the SEIU in early 2006.

One of the major potential areas of union growth in the United States is organizing workers usually hitherto considered "unorganizable," especially low-wage service sector workers, in what is often called "social movement organizing." SEIU has played a major role in the fast food worker strikes from 2012–2014 and has contributed more than $15 million to workers' centers and community organizations to organize them. The motto for the campaign is "$15 and a union," reflecting the call to increase the minimum wage to $15 per hour and the unionization of fast food workers. SEIU has recently begun supporting lawsuits filed by fast food workers to the National Labor Relations Board, calling for McDonald's to be named a joint employer of the restaurants run by its franchisees, a move which would make it substantially easier to unionize McDonald's employees. Adjunct faculty at colleges and universities have been part of a similar campaign.

In June 2004, SEIU launched a non-union-member affiliate group called Purple Ocean as a mechanism to mobilize non-SEIU members in support of the union's agenda. Purple Ocean members do not have voting rights within the SEIU.

In November 2009, the SEIU and the National Union of Healthcare Workers (NUHW) competed for the right to represent 10,000 home health-care workers in Fresno, California. After the SEIU won the right to represent the workers, the NUHW charged the SEIU with changing ballots and threatening to report a worker to immigration officials. The NUHW asked that the election be invalidated and a new one ordered due to what it said was evidence of intimidation.

In 2012, SEIU, the American Federation of Teachers and AFSCME agreed on a politics-only alliance for the 2012 national election campaign. In 2016, AFSCME and SEIU announced an extension of that agreement, leading to speculation about a possible future merger.

In July 2020, three SEIU members, Felix Thomson, Julia Wallace, and Mark Ostapiak, published an article in the media and organizing forum Labor Notes describing their participation in a campaign to disaffiliate police unions from the SEIU.

The Service Employees International Union challenged California's Proposition 22. The proposition was initially overturned in the lower courts before the decision was reversed in the Court of Appeal.

Sodexo
In 2009, the union launched a nationwide campaign against Sodexo, criticizing the company's labor standards. The union's strategy, which was ultimately unsuccessful, involved organizing student groups to pressure administrators at universities to kick Sodexo out of school cafeterias unless the company permitted unionization. Sodexo USA filed a civil lawsuit against SEIU under the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act on March 17, 2011. In the complaint, Sodexo alleged that SEIU engaged in blackmail, vandalism, trespassing, harassment, and lobbying law violations, referring to the "Clean Up Sodexo" campaign as "old-fashioned, strongarm tactics" and SEIU behavior as "egregious" and "illegal."

During the trial, it was revealed that in 1988, the SEIU had co-written a manual detailing how "outside pressure can involve jeopardizing relationships between the employer and lenders, investors, stockholders, customers, clients, patients, tenants, politicians, or others on whom the employer depends for funds." Tactics recommended include references to blackmail and extortion, accusations of racism and sexism, targeting the homes and neighborhoods of business leaders for demonstrations, and also explicitly stated that at times it is necessary to "disobey the law." Following the court discovery of this document, a settlement was reached where Sodexo withdrew the lawsuit and SEIU terminated its public campaign focused on Sodexo.

Political donations
According to OpenSecrets, since 1990 the SEIU has been the nation's top organization contributing to federal campaigns, donating $232,694,670, 99 percent of which went to Democrats. Over that same period, the National Education Association was the second highest organizational political donor, contributing $96,992,506, 97 percent of which went to Democrats.  Since 1998, the SEIU has spent $19,676,660 in additional money on lobbying.

Local unions

1199SEIU United Healthcare Workers East

SEIU's largest local union is 1199SEIU United Healthcare Workers East.  With a membership of roughly 300,000, it claims to be the largest local union in the world. It represents workers in various parts of New York state, chiefly in New York City, Syracuse, and Buffalo, with additional members located in and around the Canton-Potsdam and Plattsburgh areas of northern New York, as well as Maryland, Washington, DC, Florida, and Massachusetts.

United Healthcare Workers West

SEIU Local 2005 United Healthcare Workers West (UHW West) is a large (150,000-member) local union based in Oakland, California. In August 2008, the international union announced plans for a hearing to consider trusteeing UHW West. On January 27, 2009, SEIU placed UHW West under trusteeship and dismissed 70 of the local's executives, including president Sal Rosselli. Rosselli and other ousted leaders reformed under the name National Union of Healthcare Workers and pushed for UHW West members at 60 facilities to vote to decertify SEIU. As of 2012, NUHW only represents 6 former SEIU-UHW facilities.

In early 2013, NUHW affiliated with the California Nurses Association. Also, in early 2013, the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) ordered that the results of the 2010 Kaiser Permanente union election (a vote by nearly 45,000 Kaiser-Permanente employees choosing between NUHW and SEIU-UHW) be overturned based on evidence of collusion between SEIU-UHW and the employer. The second election was won be SEIU-UHW, by a vote of 18,844 to 13,101.

Local 32BJ

SEIU 32BJ is a politically outspoken building services local based in New York. 32BJ represents over 170,000 property service workers, and is part of SEIU Justice for Janitors, Stand for Security and Multi Service Workers campaigns.

In 2010, SEIU 32BJ's Thomas Shortman Training Fund was awarded a $2.8 million grant by the Department of Labor, as part of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act aiming to create jobs in expanding green industries over the following two years. The program (1,000 Green Supers) was intended to help train 2,200 New York City building superintendents in energy efficiency.

The National Conference of Firemen and Oilers is an affiliate of 32BJ.

Local 87
One of the first SEIU locals was Local 87, a local union that traces its origins back to the 1920s, when it was known as Local 9 of the Building Service Employees International Union (BSEIU). It was originally led by George Hardy. Around 700 janitorial members of the local launched a walk-off on March 24, 2021, striking in favor of workplace safety measures including "sexual harassment safeguards", of fair pay, and of seniority rights. The strike follows 8 months of contract negotiations, 27 deaths to COVID-19 among union members, and 3000 members laid off since the start of the pandemic.

Local 721
SEIU Local 721 is Los Angeles County's largest employee union, representing 57,000 county employees in nursing, social work, and clerical roles.

Local 1000
SEIU Local 1000 (Union of California State Workers) is affiliated with the California State Employees Association (CSEA) with one other union, the California State University Employees Union, SEIU Local 2579, a non-union affiliate of managers, confidential and supervisory employees who are excluded from collective bargaining, and an affiliate of retired state employees. Yvonne Walker has been president since 2008. SEIU Local 1000 represents 95000 State Government Employees,  many of whom are office and administrative workers, librarians, engineers and nurses. Local 1000 deals with issues of concern to current rank-and-file state employees, such as salaries, benefits, working conditions and contract negotiations. Local 1000 has nine bargaining units and represents a variety of state workers, including DMV employees, prison support staff (excluding uniformed guards), information technology workers, nurses and administrative staff.

In Knox v. Service Employees International Union, Local 1000, the US Supreme Court found Local 1000 had used illegal fundraising during the 2005 California Special Election.

Committee of Interns and Residents
Committee of Interns and Residents Local 1957 is the largest housestaff union in the United States.

National Association of Government Employees (NAGE)

The National Association of Government Employees (NAGE), SEIU Local 5000, represents tens of thousands of state, federal, and municipal government employees including nurses, EMS professionals, firefighters, police and correctional officers, and military air technicians.

Local 1 Canada

The largest local in Canada is SEIU Local 1 Canada. It represents over 50,000 health care and community services workers in Ontario and British Columbia. Its members work in hospitals, home care, nursing and retirement homes and community services.

Composition

According to SEIU's Department of Labor records since 2005 (when membership classifications were first reported) about two percent of the union's membership are considered retirees, with eligibility to vote in the union. SEIU contracts also cover some non-members, known as agency fee payers, which since 2005 have numbered comparatively about one tenth of the size of the union's membership. As of 2014 this accounts for about 35,000 retirees and about 180,000 non-members paying agency fees, compared to about 1.8 million regular members.

Archival and historical materials
The official repository of SEIU is the Walter P. Reuther Library of Labor and Urban Affairs at Wayne State University in Detroit. The Reuther Library, the largest labor archives in North America, holds the most complete collection of primary source materials regarding SEIU with over 1,000 linear square feet of the union's records covering 105 years of history (1905-2010). The SEIU Collections include a variety of organizational, executive, photographic, and publicity materials along with many other additional record types. The relationship between SEIU and the Reuther Library began officially in 1992 and the collections have since been maintained by a dedicated SEIU Archivist on staff at the archives. Notable collections include SEIU Executive Office: John Sweeney Records, the District 925 Records, and materials documenting the Justice for Janitors campaign from SEIU's numerous local affiliates.

Additional archival collections can be found at the Special Collections Library of the University of Washington (Building Service Employees' International Union, Local 6 Records and Service Employees International Union, Local 120 Records). The records of SEIU's United Service Workers West, including the Justice for Janitors campaign are held by the UCLA Library Department of Special Collections.

Viorel Huși este pseudonimul artistic al lui Viorel Herșcovici (n. 15 iunie 1911, Huși – d. 25 octombrie 1972, București) care a fost un pictor și grafician român.

Tatăl său a fost colonel medic. Viorel a copilărit și a urmat școala în Huși, absolvind în 1928 liceul "Cuza Vodă", unde l-a avut ca mentor pe pictorul Adam Bălțatu. Din 1929 până la sfârșitul lui 1933, după dorința tatălui său, a urmat, cu întreruperi, cursurile Facultăților de Medicină din Tours și Paris. Fiind mai atras de pictură Viorel Huși a hotărât să se specializeze la École des Beaux-Arts din Paris, fiind admis pe baza unei mape cu lucrări prin care a impresionat comisia de examinare. A fost primit în atelierele profesorilor Lucien Simon și Dévambez.

În primăvara anului 1931, deși avea de învățat pentru examenele de medicină, și-a făcut timp să viziteze sistematic Muzeul Luvru, și a trimis lucrări la Salonul Oficial de primăvară de la București. În 1933 a abandonat studiile de medicină și s-a întors la Huși, apoi s-a mutat la București, unde a studiat în atelierul lui Camil Ressu între anii 1933 - 1935, dar s-a întors de multe ori la Huși, de care se simțea legat, astfel că de pe urma sa au rămas 36 de lucrări care poartă în denumire toponimul Huși.

Debutează la Salonul Oficial din 1927 participând apoi la manifestări artistice colective până în 1940, iar din 1957 la Anualele de stat, saloane de desen sau de gravură.

Expoziție personală în 1967 la București cu pictură și desen.
Lucrările sale se află în colecțiile Muzeului de Artă al României, în Cabinetul de stampe al Academiei Române și în colecții particulare din țară și străinătate.

În 1996, cu prilejul omagierii a 85 de ani de la nașterea sa, Ministerul Culturii și Centrul de Documentare pentru Expoziții de Artă au organizat retrospectiva "Viorel Huși", cu un număr impresionant de opere și documente, la Galeria Etaj 3-4 a Teatrului Național din București, itinerată în 1997 și la Muzeul Brukenthal din Sibiu.

În 2012, fiica pictorului, plasticiana și muzeografa Aura Popescu, a editat și publicat volumul Pictorul și graficianul Viorel Huși. Centenar (1911-1972), București, "Monitorul Oficial", 2012, cu 296 de pagini. Acest volum include 200 de pagini cu 319 de reproduceri de pictură și grafică.

The Shrigley abduction was an 1827 British case of a forced marriage by Edward Gibbon Wakefield to the 15-year-old heiress Ellen Turner of Pott Shrigley. The couple were married in Gretna Green, Scotland, and travelled to Calais, France, before Turner's father was able to notify the authorities and intervene.  The marriage was annulled by Parliament, and Turner was legally married two years later, at the age of 17, to a wealthy neighbour of her class. Both Edward Gibbon Wakefield and his brother William, who had aided him, were convicted at trial and sentenced to three years in prison.

Background
Ellen Turner was the daughter and only child of William Turner, a wealthy resident of Pott Shrigley, Cheshire, who owned calico printing and spinning mills. At the time of the abduction, Turner was a High Sheriff of Cheshire and lived in Shrigley Hall, near Macclesfield. Fifteen-year-old Ellen attracted the interest of Edward Gibbon Wakefield in 1826.  He conspired with his brother William Wakefield to marry her for her inheritance.

Edward Gibbon Wakefield was 30 years old; he had been a King's Messenger (a diplomatic courier) as a teenager, and later became a diplomat. At the age of 20, he had eloped to Scotland with a 17-year-old heiress, Eliza Pattle. Her mother accepted the marriage and settled £70,000 on the young couple. Eliza died four years later in 1820 after giving birth to her third child. Wakefield had political ambitions and wanted more money. He tried to break his father-in-law's will and was suspected of perjury and forgery. He appeared to have based his plan to marry Ellen Turner on the expectation that her parents would respond as Mrs Pattle had.

False summons
On 7 March 1827, Wakefield sent his servant Edward Thevenot with a carriage to Liverpool, where Ellen was a pupil at a boarding school. Thevenot presented a message to the Misses Daulby, the mistresses of the school. (The Misses Daulby were the daughters of Daniel Daulby, a well-known Liverpool collector and author of The Collected Works of Rembrandt (1796)). The message stated that Mrs Turner had become paralysed and wished to see her daughter immediately. The Misses Daulby were initially suspicious of the fact that Ellen did not recognise Thevenot but eventually let him take her away.

Thevenot took Ellen Turner to Manchester and the Hotel Albion to meet Wakefield. Wakefield told her that her father's business had collapsed, and that Wakefield had agreed to take her to Carlisle, where Turner had supposedly fled to escape his creditors.

The party proceeded to Kendal, where the next day Wakefield told Ellen that her father was a fugitive. He claimed that two banks had agreed that some of her father's estate would be transferred to her or, to be exact, her husband. He said that his banker uncle had proposed that Wakefield marry Ellen, and that if she would agree to marry him, her father would be saved. Ellen allowed them to take her to Carlisle. There they met Edward's brother William Wakefield, who claimed to have spoken to Turner and got his agreement to the marriage.

Ellen finally consented and the Wakefields took her over the border of Scotland to Gretna Green, a favoured place of elopement for those who wanted to exploit the less strict marriage laws of Scotland. There Ellen and Edward were married by blacksmith David Laing.

They returned to Carlisle, where Ellen said she wanted to see her father. Wakefield agreed to take her to Shrigley, but instead took her to Leeds. Wakefield then claimed he had a meeting in Paris that he could not postpone, and had to go to France by way of London. He sent his brother off, ostensibly to invite Turner to meet them in London. Wakefield and Ellen continued to London. In London, Wakefield, accompanied by Ellen, pretended to inquire after his brother and Turner. At Blake's Hotel, a valet told them that Turner and Wakefield had gone to France. Edward Wakefield and Ellen had to follow them, and he took her to Calais.

Suspicions arise
After a few days, Miss Daulby became concerned.  Turner and his wife received a letter from Wakefield, stating that he had married Ellen.  Wakefield may have expected the Turners to accept the marriage rather than face a public scandal. Instead, Turner went to London and asked for help from the Foreign Secretary. Learning that his daughter had been taken to the European mainland, Turner sent his brother to Calais, accompanied by a police officer and a solicitor. There they soon found the couple staying in a hotel.

Wakefield claimed that since they were legally married, Ellen could not be taken from him by force. After interviewing the girl, the French authorities let her leave the country with her uncle. Wakefield wrote a statement attesting that Ellen was still a virgin, and he left for Paris.

Arrest and trial
The British Foreign Secretary had issued a warrant for the Wakefields' arrest; William was arrested in Dover a couple of days later. He was taken to Cheshire, where magistrates debated his offence.  They committed him to Lancaster Castle to await trial. The Court of King's Bench later released him on £2,000 bail and two sureties of £1,000 each.

Edward Thevenot and the Wakefields' stepmother Frances were indicted as accomplices. Both brothers and their stepmother appeared in court and pleaded "not guilty". Thevenot, who was still in France, was indicted for felony in absentia.  On 23 March 1827 all three defendants were put on trial in Lancaster. The jury found all guilty the same day. They were committed to Lancaster Castle the following day.

On 14 May the Wakefields were taken to the Court of King's Bench in Westminster Hall in London. William testified that he had acted as guided by his brother. Edward Wakefield swore that the legal expenses had exceeded £3,000. The court sentenced the brothers to three years in prison, Edward in Newgate and William in Lancaster Castle. Frances Wakefield was released. The marriage was later annulled by Act of Parliament.

Aftermath
After his release, Edward Wakefield became active in prison reform. He became involved in colonial affairs, and had roles in the development of South Australia, Canada, and New Zealand. William Wakefield became an early leader in the colonisation of New Zealand.

William Turner was elected Member of Parliament for Blackburn as a Whig in 1832, serving until 1841.  At the age of 17, Ellen Turner married Thomas Legh, a wealthy neighbour. She died in childbirth at the age of 19 and was survived by a daughter.

Carl August Ludwig Munckel (født 23. januar 1837 i Pyritz, død 10. april 1903 i Berlin) var en tysk politiker og sagfører.

Munckel studerede retsvidenskaben i Berlin og blev 1864 sagfører sammesteds. Han udmærkede sig særlig ved forsvar i politiske sager, blandt andet for grev Harry von Arnim (1874—75) og var gentagne gange talsmand for nordslesvigerne imod regeringsovergreb. Siden 1881 var han Medlem af den tyske rigsdag (indtil 1893 valgt i Berlin) og hørte til det frisindede folkeparti; ligeledes siden 1882 af det preussiske underhus. Endvidere var han 1882—84 formand for byrådet i Charlottenburg og siden 1887 medlem af den brandenburgske provinslanddag.

Dear Boy conocido en América Latina como Mi Chico y en España como Querido Niño. Es el quinto episodio de la segunda temporada de la serie de televisión estadounidense Ángel. Escrito y dirigido por David Greenwalt. El episodio se estrenó originalmente el 24 de octubre del año 2000 por la WB Network. En este episodio Ángel por fin descubre que su creadora está viva como una humana y está dispuesta a seducirlo con tal de "hacerlo feliz."

Argumento
En el Hyerion, Ángel se despierta encontrando a Cordelia y a Wesley pelando nuevamente hasta que Cordelia tiene una visión sobre unos adoradores humanos de un demonio peleando a muerte en una especie de templo antiguo. La pandilla entera va al lugar de la visión donde con intervención de Gunn y su nueva hacha consiguen derrortar al demonio Thrall, responsable prácticamente de los eventos. Angel, aun afectado por sus sueños constantes con su dueña, decide caminar a su hogar hasta que se sorprende de ver en la calle a la propia Darla.

En el pasado, Ángelus camina por la calle hasta que se encuentra con Darla quien ha asesinado a dos personas en un callejón. Acto seguido la vampiresa le apunta a su creación, a una joven mujer, pura y dotada de un don para predecir las cosas; la mujer resulta ser Drusilla. Ángelus cruelmente mata a toda la familia de Drusilla y le comenta a Darla que tiene planeado convertir a la torturada chica en una vampiresa para preservarla en su estado de manera permanente.

De regreso en el presente Ángel, Cordelia y Wesley tratan de ayudar a un potencial cliente a probarle que su mujer lo esta engañando, quien ridículamente se excusa con ser secuestrada por extraterrestres. Antes de terminar la misión, un desesperado Ángel contempla en el hotel a Darla nuevamente, quien se identifica con el nombre de DeEtta Kramer y corre bajo la luz del sol para reunirse con su esposo, Stephen Kramer, sin reducirse a cenizas. A pesar de estar confundido por los eventos recientemente ocurridos, Ángel sigue creyendo que la mujer que vio es su creadora y parte a su dirección para sacarse de dudas de una vez por todas.

En la estación de policía, Kate recibe la visita de un amigo que le entrega un sobre con la nueva dirección de Investigaciones Ángel en el viejo hotel Hyperion. En la casa de los Kramer, Darla se prepara con Lindsey para inculpar a Ángel del asesinato de Stephen Kramer, quien muere asesinado por un vampiro en la casa oculto como un guardaespaldas del falso matrimonio. Acto seguido, Darla llama a emergencias para orillar a Ángel a entrar en la casa y hacerlo parecer una entrada forzada. La noticia del asesinato cometido por Ángel llega a los oídos de Kate y junto a un equipo SWAT empieza a revisar el Hyperion e interrogar a los empleados del vampiro.

Ángel, por otra parte, secuestra a Darla y la lleva hasta el templo del demonio Thrall donde aparenta estar a punto de matarla y en su lugar acaba besándola. Darla entonces algo satisfecha admite haber estado jugando con él en su intento por volcarlo al lado del mal siguiendo las órdenes de Wolfram&Hart. Darla trata de seducir a Ángel para intentar hacerlo feliz. No obstante Ángel le advierte que nunca lo hizo feliz y que como humana ya tiene su alma restaurada y que es solo cuestión de tiempo para que comience a repentirse de todos sus pecados cometidos en su vida pasada. Darla no dándose por vencida escapa del templo no sin antes advertirle que todavía lo quiere.

De regreso en el hospital el resto del equipo Investigaciones Ángel consiguen probarle a Kate la inocencia del vampiro al descubrir que Ángel no pudo haber entrado a la residencia Kramer a no ser que haya recibido una invitación o los dueños del hogar estén muertos. Al no encontrar a Angel oculto en el hotel y sin evidencia de sus acusaciones, Kate se marcha.

Unas horas después Wesley y Cordelia confrontan a Ángel para ver si es malo. Ángel les comenta a sus empleados que W&H se está metiendo con ellos y que deben responder.

Continuidad
 Investigaciones Ángel por fin descubre que Darla fue el ser que fue alzada por Wolfram & Hart cuando los abogados trajeron al demonio Vocah. Incluso Ángel se da cuenta de que sus sueños fueron manipulados por su creadora y que la misma está viva.
 Lindsey le explica a Darla que no quieren a Ángel muerto sino "oscuro".
 Darla y Cordelia mencionan la relación pasada de Ángel y Buffy.

Pomul cunoașterii binelui și răului (עֵץ הַדַּעַת טוֹב וָרָע; ) este unul dintre cei doi pomi specifici din Grădina Edenului, fiind menționat în Geneza 2-3, alături de pomul vieții.

În Geneza

Povestea
Geneza 2 povestește că Dumnezeu i-a așezat pe primul bărbat și pe prima femeie în grădina Edenului. Dumnezeu le-a dat voie să mănânce fructe din toți pomii, dar le-a interzis să mănânce fructele din "pomul cunoștinței binelui și răului". Atunci când, în Geneza 3, un șarpe a amăgit-o pe femeie să mănânce din fructul oprit și ea i-a dat să guste bărbatului ei, Dumnezeu i-a alungat pe amândoi din grădina Edenului și i-a făcut să devină muritori.

Expresia ebraică טוֹב וָרָע (tov wa-raʿ) este tradusă literal ca bine și rău. Ea poate fi un exemplu al figurii de stil cunoscută sub numele de merism, care constă în împerecherea unor termeni opuși cu scopul de a crea un sens general; astfel expresia "bine și rău" înseamnă pur și simplu "totul". În mod similar, expresia egipteană rău-bun este folosită cu sensul de "totul". În literatura greacă, Homer folosește, de asemenea, această tehnică atunci când îl pune pe Telemah să afirme: "eu știu totul, atât binele, cât și răul" (Od.20:309-10).

Pomul cunoașterii binelui și răului trebuie înțeles ca un copac ale cărui fructe transmit cunoașterea tuturor lucrurilor, fără ca această expresie să indice neapărat un concept moral. Acest punct de vedere este susținut de mai mulți cercetători.

Cu toate acestea, având în vedere contextul neascultării față de Dumnezeu, alte interpretări ale implicațiilor acestei fraze necesită, de asemenea, a fi luate în considerare. Robert Alter subliniază ideea că atunci când Dumnezeu a interzis omului să mănânce din acest pom, el i-a spus că dacă va mânca va "muri negreșit". Cuvintele ebraice din această expresie reprezintă o formă folosită în mod obișnuit în Biblia ebraică pentru emiterea sentințelor de condamnare la moarte.

Opinii religioase

În iudaism
În tradiția iudaică Pomul Cunoașterii și consumul fructelor sale reprezintă începutul amestecării binelui și răului. Anterior, cele două erau separate și rău avea doar o existență potențială nebuloasă. Deși libera alegere a existat înainte de mâncarea fructului oprit, răul exista ca o entitate separată de psihicul uman și nu era în natura umană dorința de a-l săvârși. Mâncarea fructului oprit a schimbat acest lucru și astfel a apărut yeitzer hara, înclinația către rău. În însemnările rabinului Rashi cu privire la Geneza 3:3, primul păcat a apărut pentru că Eva a adăugat o clauză suplimentară la porunca divină: Nici să nu vă atingeți de el.  Spunând aceasta, Eva a completat porunca lui YAHWE și, astfel, i-a fost distrasă atenția de la ea, pentru că este scris: Nu adăuga nimic la cuvintele Lui (Proverbe 30:6). Cu toate acestea, în Legendele evreilor, se spune că Adam a fost cel care i-a interzis Evei să atingă pomul, chiar dacă Dumnezeu a interzis doar consumul fructelor.

În Cabala, păcatul consumului de fructe din Pomul Cunoașterii (numit Cheit Eitz HaDa'at) a determinat misiunea măreață a beirurimului, pătrunzând prin amestecul de bine și rău în lume pentru a extrage și a elibera scânteile de sfințenie captive. Din moment ce răul nu are o existență independentă, el apare și este hrănit din "resturile" forței vitale divine produse de sfințenie. Odată ce răul este separat de sfințenie prin beirurim, sursa lui de viață este tăiată, făcând răul să dispară. Acest lucru este realizat prin respectarea celor 613 porunci din Tora, care se referă în primul rând la obiectele fizice în care binele și răul sunt amestecate împreună. Astfel, misiunea beirurimului anulează păcatul produs de consumul de fructe din acel pom și atrage Shechinah (prezența divină) înapoi pe pământ, de unde fusese îndepărtată prin săvârșirea păcatului consumului din acel pom.

În creștinism

În teologia creștină, consumarea unui fruct din pomul cunoașterii binelui și răului a fost păcatul comis de Adam și Eva care a dus la căderea omului în Geneza 2-3.

Teologul catolic Augustin de Hipona a afirmat că pomul ar trebui să fie înțeles atât simbolic, cât și ca un copac real - în mod similar Ierusalimul este considerat atât un oraș adevărat, cât și un oraș mesianic simbolic (Ierusalimul Ceresc). Augustin a subliniat că fructele acelui copac nu erau rele prin ele însele, pentru că tot ce a creat Dumnezeu era bun (Geneza 1:12). Neascultarea lui Adam și a Evei, cărora Dumnezeu le-a spus să nu mănânce din fructele acestui pom (Geneza 2:17), a fost cea care a provocat dezordine în cadrul creației, iar astfel omenirea a moștenit păcatul și stare de vină de pe urma păcatului comis de Adam și Eva.

În arta creștină occidentală, fructul acestui copac este reprezentat frecvent ca un măr, care își are originea în Asia Centrală. Această reprezentare s-ar putea datora unui joc de cuvinte în limba latină: mâncând mālum (mărul), Eva a dobândit malum (răul). Este posibil, de asemenea, ca această reprezentare artistică să se datoreze opiniilor artistice ale pictorilor de subiecte religioase.

În islamism
Coranul nu se referă niciodată la acest copac ca "Pomul cunoașterii binelui și răului", ci îl menționează de obicei ca "pomul" sau (în cuvintele lui Iblis) ca "pomul nemuririi". Musulmanii cred că Allah le-a spus lui Adam și Eva, atunci când i-a creat, că pot să mănânce din roadele tuturor copacilor din Grădină, cu excepția roadelor acestui pom, dar diavolul a apărut și le-a spus că singurul motiv pentru care Allah le-a interzis să mănânce din acel pom este că vor deveni îngeri sau că vor deveni nemuritori.

Atunci când au mâncat un fruct din acest pom Adam și Eva și-au dat seama că sunt goi și au început să coase frunze din Grădină, pentru a se acoperi. Coranul menționează păcatul ca fiind o "alunecare", iar după această "alunecare" Adam și Eva au fost trimiși în locul care li s-a destinat, adică pe Pământ. În consecință, ei s-au pocăit, i-au cerut iertare lui Allah și au fost iertați. S-a decis că cei care i se supun lui Allah și-i urmează calea vor primi ca răsplată viața veșnică în Jannah (paradis), iar cei care nu i se supun lui Allah și se abat de la calea lui vor fi trimiși ca pedeapsă în Jahannam.

Allah afirmă în Coran (Al-A'raf 27) următoarele: "O, fii ai lui Adam! Să nu vă ispitească Diavolul ca în ziua când i-a izgonit pe strămoșii noștri din Grădină, smulgându-le veșmintele ca ei să-și vadă goliciunea. El și cohorta lui vă văd, pe când voi nu-i vedeți. Noi i-am făcut pe diavoli oblăduitorii celor care nu cred."

În alte culturi
Un sigiliu cilindric, cunoscut sub numele de sigiliul cilindric Adam și Eva, din perioada post-akkadiană a Mesopotamiei (c. secolele al XXIII-lea-al XX-lea î.Hr.), a fost asociat cu povestea biblică despre Adam și Eva. Asiriologul George Smith (1840-1876) descrie sigiliul ca având două persoane așezate față în față (bărbat și femeie), de o parte și de alta a unui pom, care întind mâinile către fructe, în timp ce între spatele lor este un șarpe, dovedind astfel că povestea căderii omului în păcat a fost cunoscută în epoca timpurie a Imperiului Babilonian. Experții de la British Museum contestă această interpretare și susțin că reprezentarea venerării unei zeități masculine de către o femeie este o imagine comună din acea perioadă, fără nicio legătură cu relatarea din Cartea Genezei.

Poemul tamil "Tala Vilasam" narează o legendă a pomului asemănătoare cu relatarea biblică. Potrivit acestei legende, creatorul Brahma a permis în cele din urmă accesul oamenilor la arbore - care, în acest caz, este palmierul Borassus flabellifer.

Ipoteza etnomicologică
Etnocmicologul, etnobotanistul și filozoful american Terence McKenna a susținut că Fructul Oprit era enteogen și l-a identificat cu ciuperca Psilocybe cubensis, în conformitate cu modelul "Maimuțele drogate" al evoluției umane.

O pangaleguismo é o pensamento a favor da união dos galegos com independência da sua residência ou não na Galiza. A palavra foi cunhada em 1918 no contexto das Irmandades da Fala por Antón Villar Ponte e o conceito veio sendo empreguado por diversos intelectuais galegos desde então. Faz referência à questão da dualidade da identidade galega (Galiza + diáspora galega) e tem a ver com outras como a galaicidade (termo cunhado por Valentín Paz-Andrade) ou galeguidade (no senso que lhe dava Ramón Otero Pedrayo), a galusofonia contra a Galiza Mundial e na acepção de Antón Villar Ponte refere à consolidação nacional e à expansão internacional da identidade galega: pangaleguismo quer dizer defesa das formas e valores da consciência cívico-cultural galega dentro e fora dos lindeiros da Galiza territorial.

Também existe uma aceitação com uma conotação mais limitada pela que o pangaleguismo que consiste em incorporar Portugal no desenho político futuro do nacionalismo galego.

Kid Lucky er en fransk humoristisk tegneserie om den berømte cowboy Lucky Luke som barn. I første omgang blev der udgivet to album med lange historier i 1995 og 1997. I 2011 blev serien genoptaget med album, der hovedsageligt består af ensides historier. Sidstnævnte udgives på dansk af Forlaget Zoom.

Handling
I de to første album rejser den forældreløse dreng Lucky Luke rundt i Det Vilde Vesten sammen med en gammel guldgraver. Undervejs redder han føllet Jolly Jumper og møder for første gang de unge Dalton-brødre.

Ved genoptagelsen blev der indledt med en baggrundshistorie om, hvordan Lucky Luke blev fundet som lille. Resten af serien består hovedsageligt af ensides historier om Lucky Lukes barndom hos en plejemor i Nothing Gulch og han og hans venner oplevelser.

Baggrund
Tegneserien om den voksne Lucky Luke blev startet af Morris i 1946. I 1990'erne gav han Jean Léturgie og makkerparret Pearce mulighed for at begynde en serie om Lucky Lukes barndom. Pearce tegnede serien i en stil der var tilpasset Morris'. Før udgivelsen af det andet album, Oklahoma Jim, i 1997, kom det imidlertid til uoverensstemmelser mellem Pearce og forlaget Lucky Productions. Den franske originaludgave blev ikke solgt på normal vis men udgivet som et gratis bilag, der i dag er et efterspurgt samlerobjekt. Derefter indstillede Morris serien. Først i 2011 genoptog hans efterfølger Achdé serien, som han selv tegner. Desuden blev serien ændret fra lange historier til album med ensides historier.

Album
På fransk blev de to første album udgivet af Lucky Comics som en del af den almindelige albumserie. Ved genoptagelsen med det tredje bind blev det til en selvstændig serie.

På dansk blev det første album udgivet som Lucky Kid 1: Lucky Luke som barn. Det efterfølgende album, Oklahoma Jim, blev imidlertid udgivet som nr. 59 i den almindelige serie. Senere blev det første album så genudgivet som nr. 72 i den almindelige serie med titlen Kid Lucky. Ved genoptagelsen blev det på ny til en selvstændig serie ligesom i Frankrig. De danske album i den genoptagede serie udgives af Forlaget Zoom i modsætning til serien om den voksne Lucky Luke, der udgives af Cobolt.

Trousseau &  ou Grande faïencerie nivernaise est une faïencerie située à Nevers et active de 1885 à 1894.

Origine et création
Alors qu'Antoine Montagnon a dû s'absenter plusieurs semaines de son entreprise à la suite d'une blessure, le désordre s'y installe. À son retour, alors qu'il décide d'une baisse des salaires, une grève se déclenche dans la faïencerie et se termine par le licenciement d'une partie du personnel. Cela conduit à la création par plusieurs anciens de chez Montagnon d'une faïencerie concurrente, la Grande faïencerie nivernaise : François Trousseau, Jean Marchand (peintre), Louis Petit (mouleur) et Pané (comptable) créent la société en commandite par actions Trousseau & . La nouvelle faïencerie entre en activité octobre 1885, l'usine est située à l'angle du quai des Mariniers et de la rue de Gonzague, à Nevers.

Production

En 1889, la faïencerie Trousseau &  possède deux fours et compte . Deux tiers de la valeur de la production constitue de la « faïence commune » tandis qu'un tiers constitue de la « faïence artistique » comme en réalise la manufacture Montagnon. La production est très variée, avec de grands plats, des bibelots de fantaisie, des maisons miniatures ou des reproductions d'assiettes révolutionnaires. Les ouvriers disposent d'une grande liberté de création.

Parmi le personnel de la faïencerie se trouvent E. Jusselin, Armand Hiver ou Burlin père et fils, anciens de chez Montagnon, ou Anthony Rivière venu de la manufacture Sanson à Montreuil.

En 1888, Trousseau &  entre en conflit avec la faïencerie Montagnon en utilisant, pour signer sa production, un nœud vert comme Montagnon le faisait depuis longtemps. Un procès s'ensuit et est finalement perdu par Antoine Montagnon en 1891.

Fermeture
En raison de difficultés financières et techniques et après un incendie qui suspend l'activité de la manufacture, la faïencerie dépose son bilan en 1892 et fait faillite en 1894.

Die Schmalspurbahn Orange–Buis-les-Baronnies war eine Schmalspurbahn in Meterspur, die von 1907 bis 1952 verkehrte und Buis-les-Baronnies und Orange verband. Bereits 1938 wurde der Verkehr jedoch größtenteils auf die Straße verlagert, sodass nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg nur noch ein Zugpaar täglich verkehrte.

Geschichte
Erste Planungen einer Bahnstrecke von Orange aus in die Alpen sahen eine Linie zwischen Orange und Nyons durch das Tal der Eygues vor. Aber aufgrund der vielen Überschwemmungen des Flusses wurde dieser Plan zunächst wieder verworfen. Stattdessen folgte eine Linie von Pierrelatte nach Nyons, die am 18. Juni 1886 eröffnet wurde. 1885 kamen jedoch Pläne auf, eine Linie zwischen Orange und Buis-les-Baronnies zu bauen, wobei das Tal der Eygues nur zum Teil genutzt wurde und die Linien größtenteils dem Verlauf der Ouvèze folgte. Die offizielle Entscheidung für den Streckenbau war am 16. Juli 1896. Der Baubeginn verzögerte sich dennoch um einige Jahre. Die offizielle Eröffnung fand am 10. Mai 1907 statt. Zuständig für den Betrieb war die Compagnie des chemins de fer de Paris à Lyon et à la Méditerranée (kurz: PLM).

Mit der Übernahme der PLM durch die SNCF am 1. Januar 1938 im Zuge der Nationalisierung der französischen Eisenbahnen verlor die Strecke an Bedeutung. Dennoch fuhren bis 1952 noch Züge, meist aber nur ein Zugpaar pro Tag. Seit dem 12. November 1954 ist die Strecke endgültig stillgelegt. Heute ist die Strecke komplett abgebaut. Es zeugen nur noch einige Bahnanlagen, wie Tunnel, Brückenköpfe der Eisenbahnbrücken und Bahnhofsgebäude, sowie Bahndämme von ihrer einstigen Existenz.

Streckenverlauf

Die Strecke begann am Bahnhof von Orange. Von dort führte sie zunächst durch das Tal des Eygues nach Camaret-sur-Aigues. Dort wand sie sich von der Eygues und führte durch ein Seitental durch Violès nach Sèguret. Ab hier folgte sie bis zu ihrem Ziel der Ouvèze. Mittelpunkt der Strecke war Vaison-la-Romaine. Nur wenige Kilometer hinter dem Bahnhof Vaison überschreitet die Bahn die Départementsgrenze Vaucluse-Drôme. Von hier führte die Strecke hinauf nach Buis und überwand hierbei ihren steilsten und landschaftlich reizvollsten Abschnitt.

Auf ihrem Verlauf überquerte die Bahn mehrmals die Ouvèze, zuletzt zwischen Buis und Pierrelongue in Form eines imposanten Viaduktes von Alexandre Gustave Eiffel. Die anderen Brücken waren gewöhnliche Steinbrücken. Aufgrund des recht breiten Tales der Ouvèze waren kaum Tunnel nötig.

Insgesamt war die Strecke 49,94 Kilometer lang, überwand auf ihrem Verlauf ca. 300 Höhenmeter und hatte damit ein durchschnittliches Gefälle von sechs Promille. In den Ortslage war sie teilweise als Straßenbahn im Straßenraum angelegt. Diese Ortsdurchfahrten waren ein Nadelöhr auf der Strecke und es kam nicht selten zu Unfällen.

Fahrzeuge
Auf der Strecke verkehrten die folgenden Lokomotiven:
 Die Nummern 3993–3994 (1'C n2t) wurden von Decauville geliefert.
 Die Nummern 3995–3998 (1'C n2t) wurden von Corpet-Louvet geliefert (Fabriknummern 1108–1111).

Nach Ende des Zugverkehrs auf der Strecke, wurden zwei Wägen an die Chemin de fer de la baie de Somme verkauft.

Überreste

 Der Tunnel des Trois Rivières wird heute als Straßentunnel auf der größtenteils auf der Bahntrasse verlaufenden Straße von Crestet nach Mollans-sur-Ouvèze genutzt.
 Der Tunnel de la Cave dient teilweise als Weinkeller. Unmittelbar gegenüber befand sich der größte Viadukt der Strecke, von dem nur die beiden Brückenkopfe erhalten sind.
 Am ehemaligen Bahnhof Pierrelongue kann man ebenfalls eine ehemalige Brücke erkennen, deren Funktion heute nicht mehr nachvollziehbar ist (siehe rechtes Bild). Eine weitere ehemalige Brücke befindet sich in der Nähe von Mollans-sur-Ouvèze.

Andrew Ernest Joseph Thompson (14 December 1924 – 3 February 2016) was a Canadian politician. Thompson was leader of the Ontario Liberal Party and later served as a Senator. He was elected as the Member of Provincial Parliament  (MPP) for the west-end Toronto Dovercourt electoral district in 1959. He was elected the Ontario Liberal Party's leader in 1964. His physical health began to fail in late 1966 forcing him to retire as the Liberal leader. He was appointed to the Canadian Senate in 1967, forcing him to resign his provincial seat in the Legislative Assembly of Ontario. He attracted media attention in 1997 and 1998 for making few appearances in the Senate over the past decade. His health issues never really went away, and gave that as his explanation for his truancy. He became the first Senator ever stripped of his office staff, salary and expense account for truancy, in 1998. A month later he resigned in order to receive his pension.

Early life and career
Andrew was born in Belfast, Northern Ireland, in 1924, the fourth child of Joseph Stanley Thompson and his wife Edith Florence Magill. Andrew and his two older brothers, Robert and Hudson, were educated at Monkton Combe School in England from 1936 to 1939, with Andrew first attending Monkton Combe Junior School from 1936 to 1938. After emigrating to Canada, he attended Oakwood Collegiate in Toronto. He was a student at the University of Toronto from 1942 to 1943 until he joined the Royal Canadian Navy during World War II as a Sub-Lieutenant, serving aboard minesweepers. He was discharged after the war in 1946 with the rank of Lieutenant. He completed his education at Queen's University and received a Bachelor of Arts degree in 1947. He received a Master of Social Work from the University of British Columbia in 1949. He worked in the federal civil service, becoming Regional Liaison Officer for the Prairie Provinces, Canadian Federal Department of Citizenship & Immigration and serving as a special assistant to federal Liberal leader Lester B. Pearson. In 1959, he married Amy Riisna whom he met at a Liberal conference in Couchiching. They lived in downtown Toronto on St. George Street and raised one daughter.

Provincial politics
Thompson was first elected as a Member of Provincial Parliament in the 1959 Ontario election as a candidate of the Ontario Liberal Party in the Toronto riding of Dovercourt. Thompson was close friends with federal Liberal cabinet minister Walter Gordon having organized his federal candidacy in the federal equivalent of Thompson's Dovercourt constituency.

He made his name in the Ontario legislature in March 1964 when he assailed Attorney-General Fred Cass over Bill 99, which would have amended the Police Act to allow the Ontario Police Commission to interrogate individuals in secret leading to it being derisively referred to as the "Police State Bill". The scandal forced Cass to resign and enhanced Thompson's reputation considerably. He was elected leader of the party in the fall of 1964 when he defeated Charles Templeton on the sixth ballot.

Thompson suffered a physical breakdown in late 1966 as a result of his involvement in an automobile accident in which two elderly women were seriously injured. He also had existing health problems, specifically a heart murmur, combined with exhaustion, high blood pressure and a lengthy bout of influenza. On the advice of doctors, Thompson resigned as leader in November 1966 without ever having led his party in an election.  He was succeeded as Liberal leader by Robert Nixon.

Senator
Thompson was named to the Senate of Canada on 6 April 1967. His time in the Senate was relatively uneventful. He kept a low profile but in 1997 was exposed as having the worst attendance of any currently sitting Senator. Thompson claimed he was unable to attend Senate sessions due to illness, but continued to draw his salary by showing up for a few days at the beginning of each session. At the time Senate rules stated that as long as a Senator did not miss two complete consecutive sittings and proper medical certificates were provided for absences, they would be in good standing.

With growing media attention on Thompson's absences from the red chamber, the Reform Party made Thompson's absence a cause celebre, repeatedly pointing to the fact that he was living in Mexico.  Reform Members of Parliament hired a Mariachi band and served burritos in the lobby of the Senate to draw attention to the issue. Thompson was held up as an example of why the Senate needed to be reformed.

The resulting furore led to Thompson being expelled from the Liberal caucus on 19 November 1997. On 12 December 1997, Senator Colin Kenny moved that he be commanded to appear before Senate to explain his absence. On 16 December they voted in favour of the Kenny motion. A subcommittee reported on 19 February recommending that Thompson be found in contempt and that he be suspended for the remainder of the session. The Senate voted to strip him of his privileges and other benefits. Later they found Thompson in contempt of the upper chamber for not complying with orders to return to Ottawa to explain his attendance record, resulting in the suspension of his salary and tax-free expense allowance. In December 1997, Thompson lost his Senate office and other privileges. Some Senators disagreed with the suspension, arguing that it was too lenient and that he should have been expelled from the chamber instead. He resigned on 23 March 1998, 20 months ahead of his scheduled retirement but was still able to collect a pension.

The media's exposure of Thompson's attendance and his colleagues' tolerance of it led the Senate to toughen the rules governing its members and sick leave while also increasing the financial penalties for missing too many sittings during a session. Thompson died on 3 February 2016, at the age of 91 after years of declining health.

Stella () is a 1955 Greek film is a retelling of Carmen featuring Melina Mercouri. The film was directed by the Greek Cypriot Michael Cacoyannis and written by Cacoyannis and Iakovos Kambanelis.  The music was composed by Manos Hadjidakis and Vassilis Tsitsanis.

Stella was originally intended to be a stage play with the title Stella with the Red Gloves, but it was never staged. It has been claimed that this story was the perfect vehicle for the thirty-five-year-old Mercouri's film debut. Indeed, it was the hit that Melina Mercouri needed. The film sparked great controversy, and although it was initially rejected by Greek critics, it is now considered one of the five greatest Greek films.

At the 1955 Cannes Film Festival, where the film was screened, Melina met Jules Dassin, her future husband, mentor, and director. He helped her to secure major roles in such films as Topkapi, Never on Sunday, Phaedra, and 10:30 P.M. Summer, which  became major international successes.

Plot
The story of a fiercely independent and uncompromising young woman. Stella, a rembetiko singer at Paradise nightclub, lives a guiltless, turbulent life. Her innate independence and assertive nature lead her to numerous passionate love affairs. While with Aleko, son of a wealthy family, she decides, as is her habit, to break up before the relationship wears off. Once she meets Miltos, a young soccer player, she seems to change. At first, she avoids his advances, but, later, gives in to him. However, she can only be with him on her own terms. No matter how much she loves him, she mostly values her freedom. Things turn complicated when she is called to choose. She repeatedly rejects Miltos marriage proposals. When Miltos finally forces her to accept the idea of marriage, Stella does not appear in church, despite Miltos repeatedly warning her that he will kill her if she doesn't marry him.  Miltos kills her with a dagger at end of the film.

It has been said that the story of Stella's forced marriage symbolises the forces that are constantly trying to impose their will on Greece.
