and . In 1608, the river from the Dollart to Winschoterzijl was canalised and widened to 30 feet as the Nieuwediep (now: Winschoterdiep). In 1628, a sconce (fortification) was constructed at Winschoterzijl to protect the Province of Groningen from enemy attack. In nearby East Frisia, a religious war fought as part of the Thirty Years' War (1618–1648). Lutheran refugees settled in Winschoterzijl, because the area around Winschoten was not governed by the city of Groningen which did not accept refugees, but was a domain of the Princes of Orange who allowed Lutherans. On 7 September 1672, the army of Münster attacked Groningen, and managed to take Winschoterzijl and the city of Winschoten. The Dutch States Army launched a counter-attack, and the army of Münster was forced to retreat. Winschoterzijl was liberated several days later. In 1695, a Lutheran church was built in Winschoterzijl, and inaugurated in 1696. On 1 April 1753, Catholics were given permission to establish a church in Winschoterzijl. During mass they were attacked by several hundred farmers and beaten up. In 1804, two windmills were built in Winschoterzijl as windpumps.

Winterthur and Zürich. Under Conzett's leadership, the SAV was initially focused on insurance protection for women as workers and as mothers, and for their young children. In 1892, the canton of Zürich was considering a worker protection law that would apply to approximately 2,000 young girls and apprentices working across 150 small businesses. Conzett was tasked with gathering evidence on worker exploitation across different professions. She found that the worst complaints came from dressmakers, milliners, and straighteners. Many were working 13- to 16-hour days, including Sundays, and sleeping on dirty linen laid out on the floor. The female worker protection law was passed in the canton in 1894. The International Socialist Workers Congress took place in Zürich in August 1893. One of the main items discussed was protection for women workers, child workers, and pregnant workers, which varied significantly across countries. At the congress, Conzett received her very first public speaking invitation. Later that year, she delivered a speech in Basel which received a positive review in Basler Vorwärts, and went on to become a notable public speaker. In September 1896, Conzett attended the first Swiss Women's Congress in Geneva. She presented a report on unemployment, health and accident insurance, arguing that the only viable solution was to offer it through the federal government. That year, she was also elected to the federal board of the Swiss Workers' Association. In August 1897, Verena Conzett was a delegate to the International Congress for the Protection of Workers in Zürich, selected by the Zürich women's association. Business challenges In 1894, Conrad Conzett had resigned from the central committee of the Swiss Trade Union Federation (SGB), due to his frustration with infighting. His resignation had a negative impact on their business, resulting in a decline in print orders. Starting that year, the Zürcher Anzeiger also faced increasing competition from Tagesanzeiger, a daily newspaper which was unaffiliated politically and was initially distributed for free. To attract new subscribers – and help protect workers and their families – Verena proposed selling subscriptions to Zürcher Anzeiger bundled together with accident insurance. On 28 November 1897, Conrad finally agreed, and Verena arranged for the new program to start on 1 January 1898. Business recovery and success Due to depression and financial problems, Conrad Conzett committed suicide on 8 December 1897. The editor of Grütlianer, Hans Mettier, took over editing Zürcher Anzeiger until Verena was ready to find a new editor. Meanwhile, Verena Conzett took over the print shop in Aussersihl. She bid for the printing contract for the daily Social Democratic Party newspaper Volksrecht, but lost. Her competitors argued that a print shop led by a woman was likely to go out of business. In less than a month, she was heavily in debt, with many creditors demanding payment or collateral. Although there had been an uptake in subscriptions to Zürcher Anzeiger, Conzett had neglected to raise the price to help cover the cost of adding accident insurance. The cost of acquiring new subscribers had become unsustainable, and she needed new printing orders to keep the business afloat. Ironically, Conzett narrowly escaped bankruptcy after receiving a large printing order from the . She had received a notice from the Debt Collectors Office informing her that several hundred francs were due for payment. When she responded that there was no way she could comply with the notice, the debt collection officer offered to give her a large printing order instead. The print order was for 20,000 "payment due" notices. Investment in Linotype machine In 1906, Conzett bid for the printing contract for a new edition of the Swiss local directory. She won the contract after meeting at the Federal Palace of Switzerland in Bern with Ludwig Forrer, a member of the Federal Council. In 1907, she won a very large contract to print the tax register for the city of Zürich. By late 1907, Conzett had received so many print orders for newspapers and other recurring items, she no longer had enough capacity to support the incoming business. In 1908, she invested in a Linotype typesetting machine. Others in the industry questioned whether a business of her size would have enough print orders to justify the cost. Until then, only the Neue Zürcher Zeitung (NZZ) had adopted Linotype. She would later credit her timely investment in Linotype for saving her business. Founding of Conzett & Huber In 1908, the new owner of Zürcher Anzeiger decided to take the printing of the newspaper to a different publisher. The unexpected loss of the Zürcher Anzeiger presented a significant challenge to Conzett's business, so soon after she had taken the risk of investing in Linotype. Conzett decided to start a new magazine that would provide a steady stream of income, and persuaded Dr. Emil Huber to join her as her business associate. Huber, a young lawyer who lived in the same house, had advised her previously on legal matters. He became a "silent shareholder" of the newly established Conzett & Huber. Her son Hans Conzett, who had been apprenticing with printers around the world, returned from Italy to run the print shop, so that she could focus on editing the new magazine. Hans later also became a partner in Conzett & Huber. In freien Stunden Like its namesake, a Social Democratic magazine in Berlin, In freien Stunden was a commercial success. In freien Stunden was illustrated and featured "high quality" literature – including romances and serial novels – targeting working class families. Readers of the Zürcher Anzeiger had often asked for stories entertaining the whole family. By offering good fiction, Conzett hoped to offer "food for the soul" and discourage readers from reading "trash" such as the pulp novels which had flooded the Swiss market for decades. As with Zürcher Anzeiger, subscribers to In freien Stunden automatically received accident insurance together with the magazine. This time, the growth in the number of subscribers allowed the publication to improve the level of insurance coverage, as well as the terms and conditions. Conzett & Huber was quickly inundated with questions about insurance coverage. To ensure that readers received a high level of customer service, Conzett hired an employee dedicated to answering letters from subscribers. The publication also used audience surveys to clarify the needs of its readership, an innovative approach at the time. In response to numerous requests from the French-speaking part of Switzerland, Conzett & Huber started a similar French language magazine called Lectures du foyer. By 1914, Conzett & Huber had two dozen employees. With a circulation of 40,000, In freien Stunden had become the most widely read family magazine in Switzerland. "The Red Entrepreneur" Conzett's success in business led to distrust among her comrades in the labor movement. In 1906, the party newspaper Volksrecht transitioned from a private entity to a cooperative, raising questions as to whether Conzett & Huber should follow suit as well. In meetings, Conzett herself was suddenly treated as a representative of the "industrialists". She resigned from the Swiss Women Workers' Union (SAV) but decided to retain her membership in the Socialist Party (SP), and remained committed to workers' rights. In 1911, once Conzett & Huber was in a stronger position financially, it became the first privately owned printing business in Switzerland to offer Saturday afternoons off for all employees. In her book, Conzett acknowledged that it was sometimes difficult to be both a Social Democratic party member and a business owner at the same time, leading biographers to call her "The Red Entrepreneur". Conzett finally retired in 1926, at the age of 65. Her niece Berti Blattman succeeded her as editor of In freien Stunden, while Emil Huber took over management of the printing shop, in addition to publishing the magazines. She remained active as a founding board member of the Inselhof home for unmarried women and their children.

In her early teens, she studied seriously for the stage, but delicate health obliged her to forego that career. She then turned her attention to literary work. Her poems and stories appeared in the well-known literary magazines of both countries. In the fall of 1924, her first book of poems, Eager Footsteps, appeared in Canada, the United States and England. For the greater part, Eager Footsteps was a reprint of poems contributed by Wilson from time to time to various newspapers. There was nothing distinctively Canadian in any of her verse; her poems were a criticism of life. Of the book Dr. John Daniel Logan remarked:— "On the whole, or even through and through, Eager Footsteps is rare psychology, rare art and rare beauty—a wholly novel and lovely contribution to modern poetry." Wilson held several editorial positions, including: associate editor, Canadian Homes & Gardens; associate editor; Mayfair, editor, Chatelaine; literary editor, Hodder & Stoughton Ltd., Toronto; literary editor, Musson Book Company, Toronto; and women's editor, Maclean's. In 1924, Wilson wrote a lyric set to music by her aunt, Jacqueline Hoyt, to be introduced to a convention of dancing masters in New York, in the hope that a brand new dance step would evolve, based on an old triplet caprice.

period of rapprochement 1945-1948 Soviet Union recognized new socialist Yugoslavia (declared on 29 November 1945) was recognized by the USSR on December 19 of the same year. In November 1945 President of Yugoslavia Josip Broz Tito gave an interview to the Times in which he underlined that "Yugoslav people have warm and profound sympathy, friendship and broterhood with the peoples of Soviet Union. But there is nothing exclusive about it." stressing country's intention to maintain independence. From 1945 till 1948 Yugoslavia signed treaties of friendship and mutual assistance with almost all East European states. Yugoslavia and Soviet Union signed their Treaty of Friendship and Cooperation on April 11, 1945 in Moscow. Cominform was initially located in Belgrade. 1948 Tito–Stalin split In the first two years following the war, relations between FPRY and the Soviet leadership, which during that period sought to accommodate the USSR's Western allies demands in Europe, were not entirely free of disagreements on a number of issues, such as Yugoslavia's territorial claims to Italy's Free Territory of Trieste and the part of Austria's Carinthia populated by Carinthian Slovenes, Tito's efforts to play a leading role in the entire Balkans region, as well as over Stalin's reluctance to decisively support the Greek Communists in the Greek Civil War, who were actively supported by Yugoslavia, Bulgaria, and Albania. Drastic deterioration in relations occurred in early 1948. The assumption in Moscow was that once it was known that he had lost Soviet approval, Tito would collapse. The expulsion effectively banished Yugoslavia from the international association of socialist states, while other socialist states of Eastern Europe subsequently underwent purges of alleged "Titoists". Faced with East Bloc economic embargo and the possibility of a military attack Yugoslavia sought assistance from the West, mainly the United States. Stalin took the matter personally and attempted, unsuccessfully, to assassinate Tito on several occasions. Tito's successful resistance to Stalin in 1948 increased his popularity both in Yugoslavia and around the world and defined future Soviet–Yugoslavia relations. With deterioration of relations Yugoslav representation at the United Nations even accused the Soviet Union of having started the Korean War. Normalisation of relations in De-Stalinization period Yugoslav–Soviet normalization following Stalin’s death was influenced by the process of De-Stalinization, creation of the Non-Aligned Movement and was symbolized in an exchange of letters in March 1955 when Tito and Khrushchev agreed to meet in Belgrade. Socialist self-management, while never formally adopted by any East Bloc state, was a popular idea in Polish People's Republic, Czechoslovak Socialist Republic and Hungarian People's Republic. President of Yugoslavia Tito even attended the 1967 Conference of the Warsaw Pact (the only time the President of Yugoslavia was present) in an effort to convince Eastern Bloc countries to support Yugoslav Non-Aligned ally Egypt in Six Day War while Yugoslavia also permitted member states to use its airspace to deliver military aid. The new period of antagonism was initiated in 1968 with the Warsaw Pact invasion of Czechoslovakia. Contrary to Yugoslav verbal support to Soviet intervention in Hungary in 1956, Yugoslavia strongly condemned the invasion of Czechoslovakia which was perceived as a particularly close country. On 12 July 1968 President of Yugoslavia Josip Broz Tito gave an interview to Egyptian daily Al-Ahram where he stated that he believes that Soviet leaders are not "such short-sighted people [...] who would pursue a policy of force to resolve the internal affairs of Czechoslovakia". President Tito visited Prague on 9 and 10 August 1968, just days before the intervention while large group of 250,000 demonstrators gathered in Belgrade once the intervention started. Yugoslavia provided refuge for numerous Czechoslovak citizens (many on holidays) and politicians including Ota Šik, Jiří Hájek, František Vlasak and Štefan Gašparik. During and after the invasion thousands of citizens of Czechoslovakia used Yugoslavia as the most important paths of emigration to the Western countries. Relations improved once again following the 24th Congress of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union in 1971 with the Soviet new international policy strategy towards the United States and the Non-alligned movement and Yugoslavia’s positive attitude towards Soviet policy of deescalation and cooperation with the West. On 5 June 1972 Josip Broz Tito received the Order of Lenin, the highest national order of the Soviet Union. Yugoslav diplomacy was once again alarmed by the 1979 Soviet intervention in Afghanistan, which similarly to Yugoslavia was at the time a non-aligned and socialist country outside of the Warsaw Pact. Yugoslavia officially condemned Soviet intervention and expressed "astonishment" and "deep concern" about developments in Afghanistan. The intervention happened when President of Yugoslavia Josip Broz Tito health situation deteriorated with perception that Moscow is waiting for Tito to die in order to renew its pressure on Belgrade.

were particularly reflected in historical pre-World War I relations between Russian Empire with Principality of Serbia and Principality of Montenegro. Significant historical, cultural and political links were nevertheless not reflected in close bilateral relations with tensions and strategic divisions continuing almost throughout the existence of Yugoslavia and the Soviet Union. It was not until June 1940 that the Kingdom of Yugoslavia formally recognised the USSR and established diplomatic relations, one of the last European countries to do so. In the 1960s and 1980s, the trade between the two countries was significant and grew up until 1985. The USSR became a major consumer of Yugoslav cultural products with publication of translations of books by Yugoslav writers, and presentation of Yugoslav movies. While in the case of Soviet Union Russian Federation was internationally recognized as a sole successor state there was shared succession in Yugoslav case with five sovereign equal successor states which were formed upon the dissolution of the federation. Serbia and the Russian Federation nevertheless recognize the continuity of all inter-State documents signed between the two countries since 1940. History Interwar period After the Russian Civil War ended in 1922 in a Bolshevik victory, relations between the interwar Kingdom of Yugoslavia and the Soviet Union remained frosty. Since 1920, the government of the Kingdom of SHS welcomed tens of thousands of anti-Bolshevik Russian refugees, mainly those who fled after the final defeat of the Russian Army under General Pyotr Wrangel in Crimea in November 1920, explaining its hospitality by presenting it as paying back the debt Serbia owed Russia for the latter's intervention on the side of Serbia at the outbreak of WWI. The Kingdom of SHS became home for 40.000 exiles from the Russian Empire. In 1921, at the invitation of the Serbian Patriarch Dimitrije, the leadership of the Russian Church in exile moved from Constantinople to Serbia and in September 1922 in Karlovci (until 1920, the seat of the abolished Patriarchate of Karlovci) established a de facto independent ecclesiastical administration that a few years later was instituted as the Russian Orthodox Church Outside Russia (ROCOR). World War II Following military success by Yugoslav Partisans the new authorities in the country wanted to gain international recognition by the Soviet Union, United Kingdom and the United States in opposition to the Yugoslav government in exile. Moscow and London were well informed about the events during the World War II in Yugoslavia already in fall of 1941. Ahead of the Moscow Conference in October 1943 Tito informed Soviet authorities that his movement does not recognize the Government in exile and that they will prevent the King of Yugoslavia in any effort to return to the country as it may initiate a civil war. Moscow was restrained and reserved in it's support to Yugoslav Partisans in fear that it may antagonize western allies. Soviets were therefore irritated by radicalism of the Second Session of the Anti-Fascist Council for the National Liberation of Yugoslavia which was organized without any prior consultations with the Soviet Union. Soviet military mission to Yugoslav Partisans arrived in February of 1944, at the time when there already was already British mission since February of 1942. Tito left the island of Vis on 19 September 1944 and on 21 September he met with Stalin in Moscow. With support in logistics and air power from the Western Allies, and Soviet ground troops in the final stage of the war during the Belgrade offensive, the Partisans eventually gained control of the entire country and of the border regions of Trieste and Carinthia. While Soviet support at the final stage of war was significant, particularly in the northeast of the country (Vojvodina, Slavonia, Belgrade), Yugoslav communists, unlike most Eastern European communists, did not base their victory primarily upon the Red Army offensive. The Soviet Union agreed not to treat northern liberated parts of Yugoslavia as occupied territories (like the rest of the territories in Europe) and that the daily life will be organized by the local civil administration. During the six months of the Red Army's presence in Yugoslavia civil authorities received reports on 1219 rape cases, 359 rape attempts, 111 murder, 248 attempts to murder and 1204 robberies with injured individuals. Tito expressed his anger with such developments and with efforts to recruit Yugoslav soldiers and police officers into Soviet secret services. During the meeting with Andrija Hebrang in January of 1945 Stalin referred to reports of inappropriate behavior, but underlined that those were isolated cases. Later that year, during the new meeting between Stalin and Tito, Yugoslav leader once again complained about rape cases in Belgrade which left Soviet leader without a word. Cold War The period of rapprochement 1945-1948 Soviet Union recognized new socialist Yugoslavia (declared on 29 November 1945) was recognized by the USSR on December 19 of the same year.

and Costijn van Renesse then gave their lands in Schouwen / Renesse to William III of Holland in exchange for the count's lands in West Baarland, Bakendorp and Oudelande. Hendrik's son Jan (c. 1305–1348) is the presumed founder of the tower house at Hellenburg. He married the Utrecht heiress Aleyd van Lichtenberg, which gave him important possessions in Rhijnauwen. In 1352 his widow was mentioned as lady of Rhijnauwen, Lichtenberg and Hellenburg. Jan's oldest son Jan (b. c. 1430–1415) would be styled as lord of Rhynauwen, Lichtenberg, Baarland, Stuvesand and Bakendorp. In 1413 this Jan was banished from Utrecht, and retired to his Holland possessions. He was succeeded by his son Jan, who died in 1438, and was buried in Utrecht, like his father. Both were buried in Utrecht, indicating that the Hellenburg was not that important to them. Next came Frederik van Renesse. His marriage to Elisabeth van Kruiningen, indicates a renewed interest in Zeeland. During the wars in Utrecht, Frederik retired to the Hellenburg in about 1450. He died there on 20 September 1452. His widow and her five children then remained there. Frederick is believed to have built the castle of which we now see the extensive ruins. The Cosmas and Damian Flood (1477) The finds from the 1957-1958 archaeological excavations allow us to date the abandonment of the castle to about 1475. This is in line with a supposed destruction during the Cosmas and Damian Flood of 1477. Renaud noted that Reygersberg extensively reported about the floods of 1530 and 1532, that he personally witnessed, and that these can therefore be excluded. Decay Frederik's son Jan married Cornelia van Bouchoven. When he had to leave Utrecht in 1481, he went to his wife's possessions in Flanders, and not to the Hellenburg. The descendants of this Jan van Renesse are the Counts of Renesse van Oostmalle, and still live in Belgium. In 1613 another Jan van Renesse, Lord of Malle would lease the terrain to some inhabitants of Baarland, who were also allowed to harvest some trees. In about 1700 the ownership changed. A few years before that a picture was made of the castle. Consolidated ruins Rediscovery As mentioned above, the ruins

for the southwest room. In a still later phase the heavy square tower in the center of the south wing, with its two privy towers was added. The original southern outside wall was found inside this tower. At the northeast corner of the second castle the two small rooms between the gate and the northeast tower were built last. These contained small bricks of only 21–23 cm length, the smallest found at the Hellenburg. These were also used in the round corner tower. Measurements In 1691 Hildernisse drew a floor plan of what he could still observe of the Hellenburg. He gave the diameter of the round towers as 19 feet, which was in line with the 5.10-5.86 m found by Renaud in 1958. Hildernisse gave 130 by 90 feet for the complete main castle, which was also about correct. Obviously Hildernisse could only see the remarkable configuration of three round towers in a line. The rest he had to guess, and supposed this was a simple square. The outer bailey The outer bailey of the castle did not show signs of any serious defensive works. It is remarkable that the outer bailey seems to have been connected to the main castle by a dam, instead of a bridge. Apart from that, only a few details of the outer bailey were discovered during the excavations. History Location Hellenburg Castle is located just under 500 meters west of Baarland Castle. This makes it possible to confuse the history of the two, and harder to connect owners and castles. Van Renesse The foundation of the Hellenburg is related to the downfall of the Van Renesse family. In 1297 their leader John III, Lord of Renesse lost Moermond Castle during a siege. He was killed in 1304. In 1312 his brothers Hendrik and Costijn van Renesse then gave their lands in Schouwen / Renesse to William III of Holland in exchange for the count's lands in West Baarland, Bakendorp and Oudelande. Hendrik's son Jan (c. 1305–1348) is the presumed founder of the tower house at Hellenburg. He married the Utrecht heiress Aleyd van Lichtenberg, which gave him important possessions in Rhijnauwen.

theories and axioms. The book also contained astronomical tables and coordinate maps for various Russian locales. The origins of the book lie in Peter the Great's establishment of the School of Navigation in Moscow, and the subsequent appointment of Magnitsky at the school's helm. He needed a text to teach from, and so formulated the book around his lectures and the prevailing European mathematics texts of the age. The full title and subtitle reads: “Arithmetic, that is the science of numbering. Translated from different languages into Russian, put together and divided into two parts”. The book runs 600 pages. Its publication was extensively researched in 1914 by Dmitrii Galanin in his book “Leonty Filippovich Magnitsky and his Arithmetic”. Original copies are preserved in

It was the first mathematics textbook written in the Russian language that was not a translated edition of a foreign work. It consisted essentially of Magnitsky's own lecture notes, and offered an encyclopedic overview of arithmetic at the time, with sections on navigational astronomy, geodesy, algebra, geometry, and trigonometry. It was organized in instructive question and answer format, and rooted not in the abstract but in practical and demonstrable applications of theories and axioms.

Career In November 1891, he was articled to Peter Lyle Barclay Henderson, with whose practice he remained for just over five years. While there, he attended Edinburgh School of Art and Heriot-Watt College. Just before he turned 22 years old, he joined Ayr architects J. & H. V. Eaglesham as an assistant. Twelve months later, he moved to Perth to join Maclaren & Mackay. He later became their chief draughtsman. It was in Perth that he began his own practice, at 5 St John Street, in the shadow of the ancient St John's Kirk, in December 1909. He entered the competition to design Perth City Hall in 1911, but he was not successful. In 1923, his offices moved to 36 George Street. Around the same time, he went into partnership with John Guthrie Lornie Glass. Glass continued the practice after Thomson's death.

Russian astronomer Kirill Ogorodnikov and described by Ogorodnikov as "a system of planet-like concentrations similar to beads" and as "equally-spaced bead-like concentrations of equal size and brightness similar to the annular nebula of Kant-Lapace nebular hypothesis.", NGC 4324 features an inner ring that surrounds the nucleus. The ring appears complete but broken on opposite sides of its diameter which led to Burstein et al. suggesting that the ring is not a ring at all but instead tightly wound spiral arms and that NGC 4324 is a misclassified spiral or lenticular galaxy. Despite this, the ring is considered to be a true ring. The ring hosts most of the molecular gas observed in NGC 4324 with roughly 1.7 × 10⁹ M☉ of HI (neutral hydrogen) and 9 × 10⁷ M☉ of HII (singly-ionised hydrogen). Despite this, HI was detected by Duprie et al. in 1996 that extends roughly 2 optical diameters of suggesting that atomic hydrogen is not only concentrated in the ring. In Ultraviolet light, the ring is bright, due to the presence of star formation that is occurring at an estimated rate of roughly 0.052 ± 0.021 M☉ per year, with star formation being segregated in the ring. In between the ring and the bulge of NGC 4324, there are tightly wound spiral arms that are defined mostly by dust. Stellar populations In the center of NGC 4324, the stellar population has a mean age of about 8 billion years, with an abundance ratio is close to the sun, at [Mg/Fe] 0, and a metallicity that is slightly supersolar, at [Z/H] ∼ +0.1. This suggests continuous effective star formation in the nucleus of NGC 4324. In the bulge of NGC 4324, the mean age of the stellar population is around 13 billion years, with abundance ratio of [Mg/Fe] = +0.15, and a metallicity of [Z/H] = −0.2 L −0.3.

a scholarship to Harvard Law School, where she studied between 1967 and 1968, and graduated with an LL.M.. Robinson would later credit her time at Harvard as being extremely influential on her viewpoint on both society and the law. According to Robinson, it was at Harvard that she "learned that law is an instrument for social change." Legal and academic career In 1967, Robinson was called to the Irish bar. In 1969, shortly after announcing her bid for a seat in the Dublin University constituency in , Robinson was appointed Reid Professor of Criminal and Constitutional Law at Trinity, then a part-time position that was not particularly well paid. At the time of her appointment, she was 25 years old, making her the youngest law professor to have been appointed at Trinity College. In 1973, Robinson was called to the English bar at Middle Temple. When she left the professorial post in 1975 it was made into a full-time position. From then until 1990, when she was elected president, Robinson lectured in Trinity in European community law. In 1988, alongside her husband, she co-founded the Irish Centre for European Law, a subsidiary of Trinity College. In 1980, Robinson was made a senior counsel in Ireland. During the 1980s, Robinson was elected to the Royal Irish Academy. From 1984 she served on the Advisory Commission of Interights, an international legal human rights NGO that was based in London. In 1987 she was elected to the International Commission of Jurists in Geneva. In 1984, Dick Spring appointed John Rogers as Attorney General of Ireland. A position widely expected to be offered to Robinson, not receiving the appointment has been described by one of her biographers as "one of the most bitter disappointments of Mary Robinson's public career".

in several landmark cases in Ireland, successfully arguing (among other issues) that the criminalisation of homosexuality was unconstitutional, that women had a right to sit on juries, that the Irish state had a responsibility to provide legal aid in civil cases, and that Irish people were granted a constitutional right to privacy. Background and education Bourke was first educated at Mount Anville Secondary School in Dublin between 1954 and 1961, followed by a year at a finishing school in Paris in 1962. In 1963 she was awarded a scholarship to study at Trinity College Dublin, where all of her four brothers had also been educated. At the time, an episcopal ban on Catholics attending the Protestant university meant that Bourke's parents had to first request permission from a bishop before their children could attend the college. The Bourkes bought a house at 21 Westland Row to serve as accommodation for their children while they studied at Trinity. This house, which would later serve as Bourke's base of operations during her first election campaign, was also the birthplace of Oscar Wilde. In 1965, Bourke won a scholarship to attend Trinity's Law School. While attending law school, Bourke met Nicholas Robinson, her future husband. In the winter of 1965, Bourke was co-editor of the Irish Student Law Review. In 1967, Bourke was named auditor of the Law Society of Dublin. That year, she graduated with a B.A. and an LL.B., and was awarded first-class honours in both. She furthered her education at the King's Inns. She was then awarded a scholarship to Harvard Law School, where she studied between 1967 and 1968, and graduated with an LL.M..

educator in the U.S. state of West Virginia. Williams fought and won the significant civil rights case, Williams v. Board of Education of Fairfax District in 1898, which upheld West Virginia's law requiring equal school terms and established equal pay for teachers regardless of their race. Williams was born in Chillicothe, Ohio, around 1866, and taught in Ohio and West Virginia as a schoolteacher. She married a coal miner in Tucker County, West Virginia in 1889, and in 1892, she was hired by the Board of Education of Fairfax District as a schoolteacher at the Coketon Colored School in Coketon, West Virginia. For the 1892–1893 school year, the school board set the length of the term for white schools at eight months, and the length of the term for Coketon Colored School at five months. J. R. Clifford, West Virginia's first African-American practicing attorney, advised Williams to teach for eight months, and then sue for her wages for the three months beyond the prescribed term. When the school year ended in June 1893, Williams presented the school board with a bill for her final three months. That month, Clifford filed suit on Williams' behalf. The Third Judicial Circuit Court jury in Tucker County found in Williams' favor and the case was appealed to the Supreme Court of Appeals of West Virginia. The case was submitted to the supreme court in June 1898 and the supreme court decided in Williams' favor in November 1898. Williams and her younger children relocated to Chicago, where she died in 1930. Early life, marriage, and family Caroline "Carrie" M. Edwards was born in Chillicothe, Ohio, around 1866. She was the daughter of Jacob and Rachel Edwards, who had both been born in Virginia. Edwards taught as a schoolteacher in Ohio, and then relocated to West Virginia to continue teaching. On November 20, 1889, Edwards married Abraham L. Williams in Thomas in Tucker County, West Virginia. Her husband Abraham L. Williams was born in present-day Mineral County in 1861. Williams and her husband had nine children: May, Nevada, Robert, Russell, Irving, Ethel, Josephine, Juanita, and Wendell Phillips. Career in education In 1892, Williams was hired as a schoolteacher by the Board of Education of Fairfax District to teach at the two-room Coketon Colored School in the mining community of Coketon. At this time, Williams was 26, pregnant with her third child, and her husband Abraham was working as a coal miner.

telling its citizens to disobey the directives of the Nazi leadership, asking the inhabitants not to evacuate the city since they had nothing to fear from the advancing troops. The Allied columns approached Cologne from three directions, the 3rd Armored Division striking from the northwest, 104th Infantry Division coming from the west and 9th Armored Division clearing sections south of the city in conjunction with the 9th Infantry Division. On 5 March, the 3rd Armored Division launched a final advance on Cologne. On 6 March the American columns moved out of their positions toward the heart of the city. Near the city centre there was an engagement with a German Panther tank; this skirmish was captured on film by US cameramen from the 165th Photo Signal Company. The German Panther was lying in ambush near the train station; two advancing Sherman tanks were slowed down by a pile of rubble. The Shermans got stuck in a narrow street, which made them an easy target for the German tank. Two of the Panther’s 75mm shells hit the turret of the leading Sherman, a third shell hit the tracks of the second Sherman tank behind it. A nearby Pershing tank was sent to take out the Panther, the two tanks were in each other's sight, but the German tank commander believing it to be a German tank, told his gunner to hold fire, he had never seen a Pershing. Finally the Panther tank was taken out by the advancing Pershing.

Although the Allies had failed to capture a bridge over the Rhine near Cologne, further south the 9th Armored Division of the U.S. First Army had advanced unexpectedly quickly towards the Rhine. They were very surprised to see that the Ludendorff bridge, one of the last bridges across the Rhine, was still standing, they captured and defended this crucial asset during the Battle of Remagen. By 7 March all of Cologne west of the Rhine was captured by the Allies, the boroughs on the right bank remained under German control until mid-April 1945.

Education and career Ivan Erill obtained a B.S. in Computer Science in 1996 and a PhD in Computer Science in 2003 from the Autonomous University of Barcelona, for his work on the design of microelectromechanical systems for DNA analysis at the CSIC Microelectronics Institute of Barcelona . In 2008 he became an assistant professor at the Department of Biological Sciences of the University of Maryland, Baltimore County, where is currently associate professor. Research Ivan Erill initiated his research career working on the development of microelectromechanical systems for biomedical applications. His work featured the design of PCR and DNA electrophoresis devices on CMOS-compatible substrates to facilitate the integration of on-chip control and detection circuitry and the design of sensing microneedles to monitor heart ischemia and organ grafts, leading to the first continuous monitoring of transplant organ temperature during transportation.

electrophoresis devices on CMOS-compatible substrates to facilitate the integration of on-chip control and detection circuitry and the design of sensing microneedles to monitor heart ischemia and organ grafts, leading to the first continuous monitoring of transplant organ temperature during transportation. His work on microbial comparative genomics has focused primarily on the study of transcription regulatory networks. Working on the SOS response as a model network, Erill developed RCGScanner and later CGB to analyze the evolution of this transcriptional system in multiple bacterial groups, revealing that this response against DNA damage is evolutionary based on translesion synthesis and not DNA repair as traditionally assumed. In collaboration with other groups, he has described multiple divergent binding motifs for the

Reception Robert Hoftun Gjestad of Aftenposten wrote that Kvitravn has a fascinating soundscape but the songs sometimes become too monotonous. Financial Times wrote that the instruments and natural sounds "create a sense of huge elemental drama with heroic human actors" and described the songs as "stirring, solemn affairs, driven forward by hammered drums and chanted choral vocals". Nöjesguidens Christoffer Bertzell said he was fascinated by Wardruna's exploration of musical roots, writing that Kvitravn is more "driven, dynamic

he had been a director at Stroytransgaz but left that post to take a top posting in 2007 at Gazprom, where he no longer works. He was the deputy chairman of MEF Audit, a Russian consulting group, until mid 2015 when MEF Audit removed his name from their website. On 14 November 2010, along the Rublevskoye Highway () near Moscow, Faassen was beaten by four bodyguards of the Russian banker Matvey Urin, the co-owner of Trado-Bank (), previously the head of Breeze Bank () and associated with four other Moscow banks, all six of which subsequently went bankrupt.
