26826369#4 | Adelino Fontoura | He tried the artistic and the journalistic career, failing in the first one. He wrote for journals "Folha Nova", "O Combate" and "A Gazetinha", where he published some poems and works in prose — and, in this last one, he would collaborate once more with Azevedo, who was its founder. Alongside Ferreira de Menezes, Augusto Ribeiro, Hugo Leal and João de Almeida, he would work for the journal "A Gazeta da Tarde", that was, according to Múcio Leão, "one of the most ill-fated journals ever founded", because its founders would die in the next three years after the journal's existence. |
26826369#5 | Adelino Fontoura | After the "Gazeta da Tarde" was bought by José do Patrocínio, Adelino becomes its correspondent in Paris. Already very sick, his situation got worse due to the harsh French winter, what made him move to Lisbon in an unsuccessful attempt to get better. |

26826369#7 | Adelino Fontoura | As mentioned above, Fontoura's work is very sparse, as he did not published anything during his lifetime. Attempts of compiling his poetry were made during the 1940s and 1950s by Múcio Leão. |
26826369#8 | Adelino Fontoura | His most well-known poem is the sonnet "Celeste". |

26826396#0 | Chris Alli | Mohammed Chris Alli is a retired Nigerian Army Major General who served as Chief of Army Staff from 1993 to 1994 under General Sanni Abacha's regime and was military governor of Plateau State Nigeria from August 1985 to 1986 during the military regime of General Ibrahim Babangida. Many years later, he was appointed interim administrator of the state during a 2004 crisis in the state following ethno-religious killings in Shendam, Yelwa Local Government. |
26826396#1 | Chris Alli | On February 13, 1976, army plotters assassinated the then head of state, General Murtala Mohammed. Alli was investigated for involvement in the coup attempt, but was exonerated.
General Ibrahim Babangida appointed Alli military governor of Plateau State from August 1985 to 1986.
During the attempted coup against General Ibrahim Babangida by Major Gideon Orkar on 22 April 1990, Colonel Alli was commander of the 3rd Infantry Brigade in Kano. He instructed several army commanders to make counter-broadcasts, as he did himself. The attempted coup failed.
After the coup in November 1993 when President Ernest Shonekan was ousted by General Sani Abacha, Alli was appointed Chief of the Army Staff.
Abacha dismissed him from this post in August 1994. |
26826396#2 | Chris Alli | In May 2004 Plateau state erupted into sectarian violence, which spilled over into Kano State.

Alli quickly developed the Plateau Peace Program, involving dialog between religious, ethnic and community leaders, and a statewide peace conference. He also gave an amnesty to holders of weapons and a reward for their turning in their arms.
Alli's measures were successful in calming the situation, and he handed back to civilian rule in November 2004. |

26826423#0 | Abdul Ghapur Salleh | Datuk Seri Panglima Haji Abdul Ghapur Salleh (born 21 March 1943) is a Malaysian politician. He was the former Member of the Parliament of Malaysia for the Kalabakan constituency in Sabah, representing the United Malays National Organisation (UMNO) in the governing Barisan Nasional (BN) coalition from 2004 to May 2018. |
26826423#1 | Abdul Ghapur Salleh | Before entering federal politics, Abdul Ghapur was active in Sabah state politics, initially as a member of the Sabah People's United Front (commonly known as BERJAYA). He joined UMNO when it moved into the state in the early 1990s and was a Deputy Chief Minister in the Barisan Nasional state government between 1995 and 1997. |
26826423#2 | Abdul Ghapur Salleh | He was elected unopposed to federal Parliament in 2004, for the newly created seat of Kalabakan on the border between Malaysia and Indonesia in East Sabah. In 2008, after his re-election (again unopposed), he was appointed as a Deputy Minister for Resources and Natural Environment by Prime Minister Abdullah Badawi, only to resign eight days later. Later that year he openly criticised the BN government in Parliament for overlooking the needs states of Sabah and Sarawak, which had voted resoundingly in favour of BN in the 2008 election. He again spoke out against the federal government for what he considered to be its slow response to the invasion of part of eastern Sabah by Filipino militants in 2013. At the same time, he criticsed UMNO's internal election process as being open to corruption, claiming that "people will do anything just to get on the Supreme Council even if it’s very expensive". |
26826432#0 | Payback (Law & Order: Special Victims Unit) | "Payback" is the pilot episode of the police procedural television series "", the first spinoff of the original "Law & Order" series. It originally aired on NBC in the United States on Monday, September 20, 1999. In the episode, the detectives of the Special Victims Unit investigate a taxi-cab driver's brutal murder and castration. Detective Olivia Benson (Mariska Hargitay) becomes personally involved in the case after discovering that the taxi driver was a rapist and murderer himself. |
26826432#1 | Payback (Law & Order: Special Victims Unit) | A white male cab driver in his mid-30s is found murdered in his cab. Detectives Benson and Stabler go to the scene; when they ask why the sex crimes unit was called they are informed that the man's genitals have been removed. The cab driver's license says he is "Victor Spicer". However, after they run a background check on Victor Spicer they see that he (Matt Skollar) is serving a prison sentence at Riker's Island for male prostitution. They go and meet with him and he says that he sold his license to a man with a baby on Broadway for $100. |
26826432#2 | Payback (Law & Order: Special Victims Unit) | Benson and Stabler return to the precinct and are told that the victim died from 37 stab wounds and that forensics found a broken-off red fingernail. Benson is convinced the killer meant to kill the real Victor Spicer and they follow that lead, but it leads nowhere. By interviewing witnesses at a restaurant named Cabbie's diner, the detectives learn that the victim was last seen in his cab being hailed by two women. They are also able to inform his wife who is taking care of a young boy. Stabler finds out that Interpol made a positive hit on the victim, identifying him as Stefan Tanzic, a Serbian soldier indicted for crimes of ethnic cleansing and the rape of sixty-seven women, five of whom live in New York City. |
26826432#3 | Payback (Law & Order: Special Victims Unit) | Benson, who herself is a child of rape, begins to sympathize with the killers. She and Stabler are called back to the morgue and they are told that there were two killers and two weapons. They start to look for the rape victims. The first one they talk to is Ileana Jashari (Sevanne Kassarjian) who is blinded and horribly scarred at the hands of Tanzic. Next, they go visit Marta Stevens (Mili Avital); they are told by her husband that Marta is at work. Benson notices a little boy who runs in the room with them, and she concludes that this little boy is the product of Marta's rape. When Benson visits her, Marta uses work as her alibi, but is not sorry that Tanzic is dead. She goes on to tell Benson about how she was repeatedly raped for twenty-three days. Benson leaves convinced that Marta is guilty, but doesn't arrest her, a move which upsets Stabler. |
26826432#4 | Payback (Law & Order: Special Victims Unit) | The third rape victim is in Europe and was there at the time of the murder, so she is ruled out. The fourth rape victim they look up is Anya Rugova (Gordana Rashovich). When they go to see her at the restaurant where she works, she says she was at the restaurant, but her hand is hurt. Stabler takes pictures of the two women to their witness at Cabbie's diner, but he cannot make a positive ID. However, he does say that he is sure they will recognize him. Stabler calls in arrests claiming he has a positive ID. Benson arrests Marta and advises her not to say anything without a lawyer. Stabler goes to arrest Anya, but she dives away from him, grabs a knife and stabs herself. As she is dying, she whispers something in his ear. Marta meets with Benson, Stabler and ADA Abbie Carmichael (Angie Harmon). Carmichael pleads her out at manslaughter 2 and sentences her to 18 months in a psychiatric hospital. |
26826432#5 | Payback (Law & Order: Special Victims Unit) | Cragen chastises Detectives Benson and Stabler for their sloppy investigative work in the case. Sitting in the squad room, Stabler tells Benson that the words Rugova whispered before she died were, "I just want to be with my family." |
26826432#6 | Payback (Law & Order: Special Victims Unit) | The pilot episode, "Payback", was written by series creator Dick Wolf and "Law & Order" franchise director, Jean de Segonzac. It marked the first appearance of Christopher Meloni and Mariska Hargitay, who auditioned for the show in 1999, in the iconic roles of Elliot Stabler and Olivia Benson. Richard Belzer and Dann Florek were known to the producers for their previous appearances in "Law & Order". |
26826432#7 | Payback (Law & Order: Special Victims Unit) | Casting for the lead characters of "Law & Order: Special Victims Unit" occurred in spring 1999. Dick Wolf, along with officials from NBC and Studios USA were at the final auditions for the two leads at Rockefeller Center. The last round had been narrowed down to six finalists. For the female lead, Detective Olivia Benson, actresses Samantha Mathis, Reiko Aylesworth, and Mariska Hargitay were being considered. For the male role, Detective Elliot Stabler, the finalists were Tim Matheson, John Slattery, Nick Chinlund, and Christopher Meloni. Hargitay and Meloni had auditioned in the final round together and, after the actors left, there was a moment of dead silence, after which Wolf blurted out, "Oh well. There's no doubt whom we should choose—Hargitay and Meloni." Wolf believed the duo had perfect chemistry from the first time he saw them together, and they ended up being his first choice. Garth Ancier, then head of NBC Entertainment, agreed, and the rest of the panel assembled began voicing their assent. |
26826432#8 | Payback (Law & Order: Special Victims Unit) | The first actor to be cast for the show was Dann Florek. Florek had originated the character of Captain Don Cragen in the 1988 pilot for "Law & Order" and played the character for the first three seasons of the show until he was fired on the orders of network executives, who wanted to add female characters to the all-male primary cast. He maintained a friendly relationship with Wolf, however, and went on to direct three episodes of the original series as well as to occasionally guest star on the show. Shortly after Florek reprised his role for "", he received a call to be on "Sex Crimes". Initially reluctant, he eventually agreed to star on the show as Cragen on the assurance that he would not be asked to audition for the role. |
26826432#9 | Payback (Law & Order: Special Victims Unit) | Shortly after the cancellation of "", Richard Belzer heard that Benjamin Bratt had left "Law & Order". Belzer called his manager and instructed his manager to call Wolf and pitch the idea for Belzer's character from "Homicide", John Munch, to become Lennie Briscoe's new partner since they had previously teamed in three "Homicide" crossovers. Wolf loved the idea, but had already cast Jesse L. Martin as Briscoe's new partner. The idea was reconfigured, however, to have Munch on "Law & Order: Special Victims Unit" instead. Since the character of Munch was created by David Simon and adapted for "Homicide" by Tom Fontana and Barry Levinson, the addition of Munch to the cast required the consent of all three. The appropriate agreements were reached and, while Fontana and Levinson agreed to waive their royalty rights, contracts with Simon required that he be paid royalties for any new show in which Munch is a main character; as a result, Simon receives royalties every time Munch appears in an episode of the show. |
26826432#10 | Payback (Law & Order: Special Victims Unit) | On its original airdate, September 20, 1999, the episode pulled a 5.4 in the age 18-49 demographic. The series premiere of "SVU" on NBC also aired with the premieres of CBS comedies "Everybody Loves Raymond" and "Becker", with the premieres of ABC comedies "Grown Ups" and "Malcolm & Eddie", and with the WB drama, "Safe Harbor". |
26826432#11 | Payback (Law & Order: Special Victims Unit) | "Reviewstream.com" said that the episode "raised the question as to whether everyone should get equal justice, or there should be exceptions based on who the person was" and gave it a positive review owing to the controversial plot. |

26826491#0 | Marcus Herennius (consul 93 BC) | Marcus Herennius was consul of the Roman Republic in 93 BC. Although a plebeian and an indifferent orator, he defeated Lucius Marcius Philippus in the consular election for 93 BC. Pliny mentions the consulate of Herennius as remarkable for the quantity of Cyrenaic silphium -- Ferula tingitana -- then brought to Rome. This costly drug was worth a silver denarius the pound; and the mercantile connections of the Herennii in Africa may have caused this unusual supply. |
26826494#0 | Yours Sincerely (album) | Yours Sincerely is the debut studio album by Anna Bergendahl. It was released on 14 April 2010 reaching the top of the Swedish Albums Chart on 23 April 2010 |

Anna Bergendahl performed the song in the Eurovision Song Contest 2010 representing Sweden, she failed to qualify for the final scored 62 points and finished 11th. "The Army" was released as the second single from the album on 31 August 2010. |
26826494#2 | Yours Sincerely (album) | Jon O'Brien from AllMusic rated the album 4.5 stars out of 5 and wrote, "Her uptempo tracks, then, are infinitely far more appealing than her slower numbers, but she possesses the kind of voice that's just aching for a heartfelt love song that would make her "Eurovision" disaster a distant memory. With Yours Sincerely, Bergendahl doesn't score on that front, but there's enough potential here to suggest that in the future she will." |

26826556#0 | Brónach | Saint Brónach (sometimes anglicised to Bronagh) was a 6th-century holy woman from Ireland, the reputed founder and patron saint of "Cell Brónche" ("church of Brónach"), now Kilbroney, in County Down, Northern Ireland. |
26826556#1 | Brónach | A disciple of Saint Patrick, she built a refuge for sailors who were shipwrecked in Carlingford Lough. The ringing of Bronach’s bell warned of a rising storm on the dangerous waters of the Lough. About 150 years ago a storm brought down a large old oak tree in the Kilbroney churchyard, and in its branches was found a 10th-century bell. The bell is now in the local church in Rostrevor. |
26826556#2 | Brónach | Lying in Glenn Sechis, a mountain valley in County Down (near Rostrevor), Cell Brónche lay at some distance from the major political centres of the region. It may have been a nunnery in origin, but later came to serve as a pastoral church manned by nuns as well as one or several priests. It was chosen as the parish church of Glenn Sechis. A high cross which survives among the ruins of Cell Brónche attests to the importance of her church. It is made of Mourne granite and stands over the traditional site of her grave in the old cemetery. It is part of the "Saint Patrick’s Trail". The building suffered damage during the 1641 Rebellion, as well as in Cromwellian times. |

26826647#0 | Faubourg Treme: The Untold Story of Black New Orleans | Faubourg Tremé: The Untold Story of Black New Orleans, is a documentary film directed by Dawn Logsdon and written by Lolis Eric Elie. Featuring a cast of local musicians, artists and writers, the film relates the history of New Orleans' Tremé neighborhood. |
26826647#1 | Faubourg Treme: The Untold Story of Black New Orleans | Detailing the rich existence of the oldest black neighborhood in America, and its significance as the origin of the southern Civil Rights Movement and birthplace of jazz, the film has taken a relatively unnoticed neighborhood and brought it to the world's attention, out from under the shadow of other areas such as the French Quarter, sharing a rich history that in turn enhances the way we view the American experience and the history of the United States. |
26826647#2 | Faubourg Treme: The Untold Story of Black New Orleans | Filmmaker Logdson and writer Elie, both New Orleans natives, began work on this project in 2000, five years before Hurricane Katrina hit. They began a process of documenting the vibrant culture of Faubourg Tremé, in the hopes of uncovering Treme's unique and hidden history. By some stroke of fate, the entirety of their tapes survived the hurricane and the flooding and devastation that followed. With renewed and deepened resolve to share their little slice of New Orleans with the world, the film was completed in 2008 and debuted at the Tribeca Film Festival that year. The film premiered on the PBS network as part of its Black History Month programming on January 29, 2009. It was described by the New Orleans Tribune as “arguably the most poignant film ever made about New Orleans,” and has been compared to Spike Lee’s documentary "When the Levees Broke" in the level of its accuracy and significance. |
26826647#3 | Faubourg Treme: The Untold Story of Black New Orleans | "Faubourg" (pronounced "foe-boorg'") is a French term that means “suburb” or neighborhood. Thus, Faubourg Tremé (pronounced "Trem-ay'") means "neighborhood Tremé." The name is synonymous with the meaning of this area as not only the oldest black neighborhood, but also as a site of economic, cultural, political and social events that have shaped the course of Black America over the last three centuries. Ironically, very few Americans are aware of the significance of this neighborhood to Americans of African descent, the civil rights movement and the jazz culture that New Orleans is so famous for. |
26826647#4 | Faubourg Treme: The Untold Story of Black New Orleans | The documentary is presented from the first hand perspective of Lolis Eric Elie, a New Orleans journalist who was a staff writer on the HBO series, "Treme". Acting as a tour guide, Elie shares his city, and deep love of place, with viewers. The film is a combination of pre-Katrina footage and images, street performances and archival material. The film is interspersed with interviews and personal accounts, including Louisiana poet Laureate Brenda Marie Osbey, historians John Hope Franklin and Eric Foner, and even the 75-year-old contractor that Elie hires to rehabilitate his old house in the Treme district following Katrina. |
26826647#5 | Faubourg Treme: The Untold Story of Black New Orleans | The film, by way of interviews, live footage and archival material, seeks to tell the story of Tremé and the relevance of its context in not only Black history, but the greater American history as well. |
26826647#6 | Faubourg Treme: The Untold Story of Black New Orleans | The film follows Lolis Eric Elie and the renovation of his Tremé home following Hurricane Katrina. The progress of the renovation of Elie's home reveals the neighborhood's riveting yet neglected past and eventually emerges as an eloquent and meaningful metaphor for the general state of reconstruction post-Katrina in New Orleans. |
26826647#7 | Faubourg Treme: The Untold Story of Black New Orleans | Louisiana Poet Laureate Brenda Marie Osbey, musician Glen David Andrews, historians John Hope Franklin and Eric Foner, as well as Elie's carpenter and contractor Irving Trevigne come together to detail the complex historical experiences of Tremé, both pre- and post- Katrina. Trevigne captures the soul of the neighborhood with his beguiling and priceless stories of forgotten Tremé buildings and historical landmarks, which sets the film apart from other such documentaries, painting a picture of New Orleans over the last two hundred years from both a personal and historical perspective. |
26826647#8 | Faubourg Treme: The Untold Story of Black New Orleans | Before the Louisiana Purchase of 1803, which incorporated it into the United States, New Orleans was a French and Spanish city. A mixture of Latin and urban attitudes in the area resulted in a varied and relaxed perspective of slavery in comparison to those found on plantations outside of the city and in other parts of the country. It was common to see slaves walking freely throughout the city, working for themselves and even buying their own freedom. In the 1800s, New Orleans had the largest number of free people of color. As the city of New Orleans expanded over time, Tremé emerged as a blended neighborhood, in which a majority of the inhabitants were free people of color. Tremé became the site of St. Augustine Church, the oldest predominantly black Catholic parish in the country, and other unique institutions and ideologies that could not be found anywhere else in the country at the time. |
26826647#9 | Faubourg Treme: The Untold Story of Black New Orleans | In 1862, northern troops took over the city and Paul Trevigne began The Tribune, the first black-owned daily newspaper in the United States. This newspaper became a triumphant and bold voice in the civil rights movement, long before any of these issues hit mainstream America. All throughout the mid-1850s, black New Orleanians held sit-ins, boycotts and marches, calling for desegregation, the right to enlist in the military and the right to vote. When white supremacists regained control of the city in 1877, and the Ku Klux Klan ran rampant, a new, alternate, subversive kind form of hope was born: jazz. According to Wynton Marsalis, who explains this perspective in the film, jazz provided a form of expression and freedom that transcended the restrictions and inequalities of American society at the time; its musical style is imbued with the resilient spirit of those original participants of the civil rights movement. |
26826647#10 | Faubourg Treme: The Untold Story of Black New Orleans | In 1892, as the film documents, Tremé resident Homer Plessy became the second most famous plaintiff in United States Supreme Court history in a case (Plessy v. Ferguson) that ultimately decided against Plessy in 1896 and established the "Separate but equal" doctrine that reinforced Jim Crow laws that prevailed legally until 1954's Brown v. Board of Education decision. |
26826647#11 | Faubourg Treme: The Untold Story of Black New Orleans | Through the 1950s and '60s, Tremé was the epicenter of civil rights struggles in New Orleans, but when many of its wealthier residents moved away, abandoning the neighborhood for the prestige of the French Quarter and other areas, inner city urban decay set in and Tremé faded into the background, referred to only as the Sixth Ward, stereotyped as just another arena of poverty, crime and drugs, with its rich history and contributions obscured. However, in August 2005, Hurricane Katrina ravaged the city of New Orleans, exposing racial inequities and a cycle of neglect that has been perpetuated for decades. It also inspired two native New Orleans filmmakers to complete their project – to follow up with the people they had met during filming pre-Katrina and give tribute to a powerful, vibrant community that has contributed to and shaped our nation's history, even in the face of violence, hostility and oppression. |
26826647#12 | Faubourg Treme: The Untold Story of Black New Orleans | The neighborhood of Tremé is located within the city of New Orleans between North Rampart and North Broad, running from Canal Street to St. Bernard Avenue. |
26826647#13 | Faubourg Treme: The Untold Story of Black New Orleans | The area is named for Claude Tremé, a model hat maker and real estate developer who migrated from France and settled in New Orleans in 1783. He owned only a very small portion of the neighborhood that now bears his name. |
26826647#14 | Faubourg Treme: The Untold Story of Black New Orleans | "Faubourg Tremé: The Untold Story of Black New Orleans" explores the issues of racial inequality, economic inequity and cultural, political and social unrest that have evolved from the neighborhood of Tremé. It addresses the civil rights movement, the relevance of Tremé to African American history and its significance in the origins of jazz. Most importantly, however, the documentary film is a poignant reminder of the fact that, while we have progressed since the days of segregation, America still faces the same issues and struggles that the natives of Tremé have faced throughout the past two centuries. As Brenda Marie Osbey concludes, “This catastrophe is not greater than we as a people. Everywhere we go we must take with us the spirit of this city, the spirit of its heroes and the will to live and fight again.” |
