**Thomas A. Gaudette** (1923–1998) was a community organizer who worked in the Austin neighborhood of Chicago. Originally a businessman, Gaudette became interested in neighborhood organizing through his Catholic Church activism. Gaudette helped form a neighborhood group, along the lines of those organized by Saul Alinsky, on the far West Side of Chicago called Organization for a Better Austin. OBA was concerned with poor schools and neighborhood decline.

He also founded the Mid-America Institute for Community Organizations, and trained notable organizers like Shel Trapp and Gale Cincotta.

## Biography

Thomas A. Gaudette was born in 1923, in Medford, Massachusetts. His parents were Roman Catholic and his father a member of a railroad union, two critical influences on Tom Gaudette's later development as a community organizer. Gaudette served with distinction in the United States Army Air Corps in World War II, surviving the famous raid on Ploesti, Romania, and by war's end earning the Distinguished Flying Cross, the Air Medal, and a Presidential Unit Citation. After the war, he graduated in 1949 from Boston College.

By the 1950s Tom Gaudette and his wife Kay had settled in Chicago, where he worked as a vice-president for the Admiral Corporation. Here, he was introduced to community organizing, for his new home had become a center of community organizing because of the work of Saul Alinsky and the Roman Catholic Church.

Experienced in labor organizing and trained in sociology, Saul Alinsky (1909–1972) inspired the community organizing movement in the United States. Alinsky-style community organizing is dedicated to creating grass-roots organizations led by local people with the end of combating government bureaucracies or businesses or other powers unresponsive to local concerns. The organizer, in the classic Alinsky sense, does not assume leadership of community organizations. Instead, he or she may inspire local communities to action, but the organizer's real job is to identify leaders who can direct the community organizations, so that communities themselves can truly determine their own direction. The Alinsky maxim "Never do for the people what they can do for themselves" aptly expresses this approach to community organizing. Identified with neither socialist thought nor the New Left of the 1960s, community organizing is thus a populist movement possessed of a profound faith in the democratic abilities of local communities to control their destiny. A major correlative belief is that, when local communities themselves address their problems, social justice and true democracy are realized.

In 1939, Alinsky successfully organized the Back of the Yards neighborhood in the slums of the stockyards area of Chicago. His Back of the Yards Neighborhood Council successfully fought for major civic improvements and stands as a landmark success in the history of Alinsky's organizing. It still exists today. An important reason for the success of Alinsky and the Back of the Yards Council was the strong support of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Chicago, with its advocacy of social activism. Auxiliary Bishop Bernard Sheil championed Alinsky's work in the Back of the Yards, and such other notable Chicago Roman Catholic Church leaders as Cardinal Samuel Stritch and Monsignor John Egan would continue to provide him with invaluable moral and financial support. In short, Alinsky's methods of community organizing would be rooted in socially active churches, most notably Roman Catholic.

It was in this context that Tom Gaudette entered community organizing in Chicago. Active in their Roman Catholic parish, Tom and Kay Gaudette's involvement in the Christian Family Movement led to their joining the Chatham-Avalon Park Community Council in 1957. Tom Gaudette emerged as a leader of this organization, serving as its president and spokesman in fights over such issues as zoning restrictions and controls on taverns in Chatham-Avalon Park. Another key issue, dominant in the Chicago of the 1950s and 1960s, was the African-American integration of white, often ethnic, neighborhoods, with subsequent white flight to the suburbs. Through his work in these areas, Gaudette met Father Egan, who, as head of the Chicago Archdiocesan Conservation Council concerned with integration, was beginning his rise in the ranks of Roman Catholic social activism. Impressed with Guadette's character and leadership abilities, Egan believed him the right person to organize an area that the monsignor had targeted for such work: Chicago's West Town, a Polish-American community. Saul Alinsky had refused Egan's earlier request to organize the area, citing the lack of money and an organizer to carry out the work. Egan responded by raising money for the project from the archdiocese and sending Gaudette to Alinsky to interview for the position of organizer for West Town. After an interview memorable for the profane give and take between the two, Alinsky hired Gaudette in 1961, leading to an eleven-year association between the men. Alinsky schooled Gaudette in community organizing, making him one of the handful of organizers whom Alinsky personally trained.

Gaudette went to work for Alinsky on Chicago's west side, organizing the Northwest Community Organization (NCO) in 1961, one of the hallmark Alinsky community organizations in Chicago. NCO, under Gaudette's tutelage, fought the extensive demolition of housing planned for the area because of urban renewal. After working with NCO, Gaudette, at the request of Father Egan and other clergy, turned his attention to South Austin in south Chicago. His work here led to the Organization for a Better Austin (OBA) in 1966, notable for the fact that it brought together African-Americans and whites in an area tormented by racial strife. OBA had its most effective results in the improvement of the neighborhood school system.

Despite efforts by Alinsky to have him undertake organizing efforts in other cities, Gaudette refused to do so. Chicago would remain his base of operations, even after Tom Gaudette founded the Mid-America Institute for Community Development in 1972, the same year that Alinsky died. Gaudette used the Institute (operated out of his Chicago home) for his work throughout the country and even Asia as an independent trainer and teacher of community organizers. Monsignor Egan credited Tom Gaudette with inspiring more community organizers than any other person, many of whom originally worked with him. These included Gail Cincotta, who was a member of OBA, and later would become one of the more successful organizers in the United States. She, along with Shel Trapp, founded the National Training and Information Center and National People's Action. Cincotta's most remarkable accomplishment was her successful campaign for the passage of the Community Reinvestment Act, which the United States Congress passed in 1976. The Act banned the banking practice of "redlining" poor neighborhoods. Another one of Gaudette's more important successes has been his work with John Baumann, S.J., and the Pacific Institute for Community Organization, of Oakland, which stands as one of the more active community organizing networks in the United States today. Gaudette was also responsible for community organizations in Seattle, Kansas City, and Baltimore, among other places.

On his death in 1998, Tom Gaudette left a considerable legacy to the work of community organizing, attested to by the persons he trained, as well as by his philosophy of organizing summarized in this eloquent quotation:

> What is this goal of power? It means this sense of community. Dancing, singing, fighting, taking care of each other, helping each other out.

# Tom Gauld

**Tom Gauld** (born 1976) is a Scottish cartoonist and illustrator. His style reflects his self-professed fondness of "deadpan comedy, flat dialogue, things happening offstage and impressive characters". Others note that his work "combines pathos with the farcical" and exhibits "a casual reduction of visual keys into a more rudimentary drawing style".

## Career

Gauld is best known for his comic books *Goliath* and *Mooncop* as well as his collections of one-page cartoons. He has also authored a number of smaller-scale books such as *Guardians of the Kingdom*, *Robots, Monsters etc.*, *Hunter and Painter* and his cartoon *Move to the City*, which ran weekly in London's *Time Out* in 2001–2002.

Gauld studied illustration at Edinburgh College of Art, where he first started to draw comics "seriously", and the Royal College of Art. At the Royal College of Art, he worked with friend Simone Lia. Together they self-published the comics *First* and *Second* under their Cabanon Press, which they started in 2001. (The two volumes were subsequently published together by Bloomsbury Publishing in 2003, as *Both*.)

As part of commercial projects, Gauld has done some animation work; in an interview, he commented that "Comics are a lot of work but animation ... was too much.")

His books are now published by Drawn & Quarterly and he regularly produces cartoons and illustrations for *The New Yorker* (including cover art), *The New York Times*, *The Guardian* and *New Scientist*.

## Influences

In a 2011 interview, Gauld listed his "Cartooning heroes": William Heath Robinson, Gary Larson, Roz Chast, Richard McGuire, Ben Katchor, Daniel Clowes, Chris Ware and Jochen Gerner.

## Personal life

Gauld grew up in the countryside in northern Scotland, and has said that he had always wanted to be involved with something creative related to drawing. He now lives in London with his wife, artist Jo Taylor, and his children.

While his full-length book *Goliath* is based on the eponymous biblical figure, Gauld is not religious.

## History

Rhinectomy has traditionally been a form of disfiguring judicial corporal punishment. The ancient Egyptians removed the noses of some criminals and exiled them to the Sinai towns of Tjaru or Rhinocorura, whose own name was Greek for "nose removal". The Byzantine Empire, believing that their emperor should represent a human ideal, removed the noses of both criminals and rival emperors, with the idea that such disfigurement disqualified its recipients from office. The notable exception was the second reign of Justinian II, who gained the epithet *Rhinotmetus* or "the Slit-Nose".

# Diuris hazeliae

***Diuris hazeliae***, commonly known as **yellow granite donkey orchid**, is a species of orchid that is endemic to the south-west of Western Australia. It has between two and four linear leaves and up to six bright yellow and reddish-brown flowers.

## Description

*Diuris hazeliae* is a tuberous, perennial herb with between two and four linear leaves 100–300 mm (3.9–11.8 in) long and 4–7 mm (0.16–0.28 in) wide. Up to six bright yellow and reddish-brown flowers 35–55 mm (1.4–2.2 in) long and 25–35 mm (0.98–1.38 in) wide are borne on a flowering stem 150–400 mm (5.9–15.7 in) tall. The dorsal sepal is broadly elliptic, 11–15 mm (0.43–0.59 in) long and 15–20 mm (0.59–0.79 in) wide. The lateral sepals are narrowly oblong, 18–28 mm (0.71–1.10 in) long, 3–4 mm (0.12–0.16 in) wide, usually crossed and curved backwards. The petals are more or less erect and spread apart from each other, oblong to elliptic, 16–25 mm (0.63–0.98 in) long and 10–13 mm (0.39–0.51 in) wide on a blackish stalk 5–7 mm (0.20–0.28 in) long. The labellum is 8–11 mm (0.31–0.43 in) long with a strongly down-curved tip and has three lobes. The centre lobe is broadly wedge-shaped, 7–10 mm (0.28–0.39 in) long and 9–12 mm (0.35–0.47 in) wide and the side lobes spread widely apart and are oblong, 9–12 mm (0.35–0.47 in) long and 4.5–7 mm (0.18–0.28 in) wide. There is a single yellow callus ridge 5–7 mm (0.20–0.28 in) long surrounded by reddish brown mark, near the mid-line of the labellum. Flowering occurs from mid-August to September.

## Taxonomy and naming

*Diuris hazeliae* was first formally described in 2013 by David Jones and Christopher J. French in *Australian Orchid Research*, from a specimen collected at Tampu, near Karroun Hill Nature Reserve. The specific epithet (*hazeliae*) honours the plant collector Hazel King from the property "Kings Park", where the type specimens were collected.

## Distribution and habitat

Yellow granite donkey orchid grows on and around granite outcrops in a broad band between East Yuna, Paynes Find, Coolgardie, Norseman and Esperance, in the Avon Wheatbelt, Coolgardie, Geraldton Sandplains, Mallee and Yalgoo bioregions of south-western Western Australia.

## Conservation

*Diuris hazeliae* is listed as "not threatened" by the Western Australian Government Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions.

title: The Man from MI.5

abstract: "The Man from MI.5" is an episode of Thunderbirds, a British Supermarionation television series created by Gerry and Sylvia Anderson and filmed by their production company AP Films (APF) for ITC Entertainment. Written by Alan Fennell and directed by David Lane, it was first broadcast on 20 January 1966 on ATV Midlands as the 17th episode of Series One. It is the 20th episode in the official running order. Set in the 2060s, Thunderbirds follows the missions of International Rescue, a secret organisation that uses technologically-advanced rescue vehicles to save human life. The lead characters are ex-astronaut Jeff Tracy, founder of International Rescue, and his five adult sons, who pilot the organisation's primary vehicles: the Thunderbird machines. In "The Man from MI.5", International Rescue field operative Lady Penelope is assigned to help British secret agent Bondson recover stolen plans for a nuclear device. Commentators view the episode as a homage to the James Bond films, especially in its guest character Bondson, who was based on Sean Connery's performance as the title character. The episode had its first UK-wide network broadcast on 24 January 1992 on BBC2. The same year, a comic strip adaptation, written by Fennell and drawn by Jon Haward, was serialised in issues 24 to 26 of Fleetway's Thunderbirds: The Comic. Bondson had previously made a guest appearance in issue 44 of APF's Lady Penelope comic in 1966.

# The Man from MI.5

The lead characters are ex-astronaut Jeff Tracy, founder of International Rescue, and his five adult sons, who pilot the organisation's primary vehicles: the *Thunderbird* machines. In "The Man from MI.5", International Rescue field operative Lady Penelope is assigned to help British secret agent Bondson recover stolen plans for a nuclear device. Commentators view the episode as a homage to the *James Bond* films, especially in its guest character Bondson, who was based on Sean Connery's performance as the title character.

The episode had its first UK-wide network broadcast on 24 January 1992 on BBC2. The same year, a comic strip adaptation, written by Fennell and drawn by Jon Haward, was serialised in issues 24 to 26 of Fleetway's *Thunderbirds: The Comic*. Bondson had previously made a guest appearance in issue 44 of APF's *Lady Penelope* comic in 1966.

## Plot

On the French Riviera, MI5 agent Bondson and his associate Tidman prepare to rendezvous with Captain Blacker aboard his yacht to take possession of some mysterious papers. They are unaware these have been stolen by a diver, Carl, who has shot Blacker dead and planted a bomb on the yacht's hull. As Carl swims away, the bomb explodes and sinks the yacht. Diving down to the wreck, Bondson finds only Blacker's body.

When Bondson radios International Rescue for help recovering the papers, Jeff Tracy assigns Lady Penelope to the case. After flying to the south of France with Parker, Penelope anonymously contacts Bondson to arrange a meeting. Following him to a forest clearing, and pressing a gun to his back so that he cannot see her face, she probes him for information. Bondson, who considers International Rescue ideally placed to help due to its advanced technology, explains that the papers are plans for a nuclear device that could threaten the safety of the world.

From aboard her yacht *FAB 2*, Penelope decides to use herself as bait to draw out the enemy. Posing as a model called Gayle Williams, she has a newspaper print an article about her determination to expose the criminal organisation behind Blacker's murder. She then gives Parker the night off. After the butler goes ashore to hit the Monte Carlo casinos, Carl, who has read about "Williams" in the news and intends to kill her, takes a boat out to *FAB 2* and abducts Penelope to an empty boathouse. He tells her that he is going to trap her on the boat with another bomb, to be detonated remotely from his gang's hideout: a submarine, parked on the seabed to avoid detection by the water police. He will detonate just as a patrol is due to pass the boathouse, distracting the authorities while the gang start the submarine and get away with the papers.

On the pretence of re-applying her makeup, Penelope activates her compact's concealed videophone and uses sign language to warn Tracy Island of the situation. Before she can give details, Carl impatiently knocks the compact to the floor, ties Penelope to a chair, arms the bomb and departs, but with great effort Penelope manages to tip the chair over and verbally relay Carl's plan into the compact's microphone. Jeff immediately dispatches Scott (voiced by Shane Rimmer) in *Thunderbird 1* and Virgil and Gordon (David Holliday and David Graham) in *Thunderbird 2* to rescue Penelope and stop the gang. Arriving at the scene, Scott uses *Thunderbird 1*'s sonar to locate the submarine. Virgil deploys *Thunderbird 2*'s pod, from which Gordon launches *Thunderbird 4*. Reaching the submarine just before the gang detonate the bomb, Gordon drills through the hull and floods the cabin with knockout gas, incapacitating Carl and his cronies. As the police patrol passes the boathouse without incident, Scott frees Penelope while Gordon retrieves the papers. After Penelope leaves the papers in the clearing for Bondson to collect, Parker reveals that he got carried away in Monte Carlo and gambled away her yacht.

## Regular voice cast

## Production

"The Man from MI.5" was filmed in late 1965. Series composer Barry Gray recorded the episode's incidental music on 4 December 1965 with a 5-member band.

The model shots of the French coast incorporated a large background painting by special effects assistant Mike Trim which later appeared in "The Duchess Assignment" as well as episodes of *Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons* and *Joe 90*. The puppet sets representing *FAB 2*'s interior previously appeared in the *Stingray* episode "Star of the East". The prop newspaper from which Carl learns about "Gayle Williams" was a mock-up of *France-Soir*, a real French newspaper.

Carl's shooting of Blacker involved a human hand, placed next to the camera, firing a prop gun at a puppet stationed at the back of the set. This was one of several scenes in *Thunderbirds* which used a subjective camera angle and forced perspective to realistically present live hands and the series' scale (13-lifesized) puppets in the same shot.

## Reception

Giving the episode three out of five stars, Tom Fox of *Starburst* magazine writes that in Bondson and other aspects, "The Man from MI.5" is "as obvious in its attempts at homage as it is clunky". However, he adds that it contains "a few enjoyable little moments amongst the strained stereotypes". Sylvia Anderson found the episode dated by the scenes featuring the compact videophone. Mike Jones questions Bondson's presence on the French Riviera given that MI5's role is domestic counterespionage rather than foreign intelligence. Marcus Hearn and Alistair McGown believe the episode's title to be a play on *The Man from U.N.C.L.E.*

Hearn regards "The Man from MI.5" as an entertaining episode as well as *Thunderbirds*' "most brazen" tribute to the *Bond* series, surpassing "30 Minutes After Noon". Pointing out that "The Man from MI.5" was made shortly before the release of *Thunderball*, in which Bond tracks down a pair of atomic bombs stolen from a sunken military aircraft, McGown suggests that the episode's underwater action may have been influenced by the plot of the film. He also believes that the dark-haired Bondson was deliberately modelled on Bond actor Sean Connery. Hearn notes that despite the similarities, there is no indication that the *Bond* producers ever objected to the episode, whereas they threatened the makers of the *Carry On* films with legal action when elements of the *Bond* series were parodied in *Carry On Spying* (1964). McGown, who suggests that Bondson's role was minimised to avoid legal troubles, regrets that the character amounts to little more than a "cameo joke", pointing out that he does not work alongside Penelope or even meet her face to face. Praising the "playful humour", McGown states that while the episode's foray into spy thriller territory it an unusual story, the change of tone "hardly matters" as the episode is "such great fun". However, he argues that Penelope's apparent lack of an escape plan makes little sense.

Hearn and Nicholas J. Cull argue that "The Man from MI.5" exemplifies a preoccupation with nuclear dangers recurrent throughout the series. Hearn writes that the episode is among several in which the world comes "perilously close" to nuclear disaster, also stating that this presentation of nuclear issues "betrays the era of its production". According to Cull, both "The Man from MI.5" and other APF productions show how "nuclear weapons and wider nuclear fears in general are much part of the world of Gerry Anderson." He adds that through Bondson, "The Man from MI.5" is one of a number that "unashamedly capitalised on the Cold War cult of the secret agent whose skills defend the home from enemies unknown."

"The Man from MI.5" has received praise for its incidental music, which Fox considers to be of the "suave and slinky Sixties spy" variety. A BBC review of the series soundtrack characterises the episode's music as "the spy theme James Bond never had – an urbane jazz fantasia, perfect for a mannequin about town". Making a similar connection to Bond, Hearn argues that the music is "more Henry Mancini than John Barry".

## Synopsis

Zhang Zhen's family had fallen on hard times but remembering the betrothal agreement between his father and the prime minister, Master Chin, he set off for his fiance's home. When he arrived, he was distressed to receive a cold reception from his future father-in-law, who looked down on him because he was poor and was willing to fulfill his promise only after Zhang Zhen had successfully become the top scholar. He bade Zhang Zhen to stay at the Green Waves Study and prepare.

After a year, Zhang Zhen still had not achieved the status of top scholar. His pampered and spoiled betrothed, Peony, after the initial introduction had already forgotten about him. All he had for a companion, were the carp and the denizens of the pond by the study. The carp spirit was touched by his care for the fish and his loneliness. She visited him one winter's night in the guise of Peony and was further impressed with his sensitive and gentlemanly considerations for her well being. She managed to persuade him that she was of like mind with his philosophies, acknowledging their betrothal and her support in his endeavors. Thus a relationship was formed.

One night in spring, during the lantern festival, Zhang Zhen mistook the real Peony for his beloved and was rebuffed. Her father promptly threw him out. Shocked by his beloved's turn-about, enraged by the betrayal, disgusted with the materialistic and sanctimonious unprincipled attitudes of both father and daughter, he stormed off to return home. The carp spirit went after him and convinced him of her sincerity, telling him too that she was with child. Both decided to return to Zhang Zhen's home, 300 miles away. They attended the lantern festivities along their journey and were seen by Peony's father who thought Zhang Zhen had committed the worst of sins.

When two Peonies appeared, the household was thrown into an uproar. Even the righteous Judge Pao could not come to a settlement. Finally, the father summoned an exorcist to chase away the evil spirit. The carp spirit hastily released Zhang Zhen from the shed where he was imprisoned and convinced him to run away with her. However, they were beset by the Celestial Generals and gods who were summoned to subdue her. In despair, she told Zhang Zhen the truth and was gratified when he vowed to stay by her. Just as she was about to be killed, the Goddess of Mercy intervened. The carp spirit was given two choices, return with the Goddess to continue her training to be an immortal or forsake all her powers and become human.

## Plot

*Misadventures* is a parody of the lives of Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, loosely woven through the plots of the 1946 film *It's A Wonderful Life* and Charles Dickens' 1843 novella *A Christmas Carol*. When the secret of their conjoined birth is revealed, a series of events unfolds that jeopardizes their billion dollar empire, driving them to a dramatic break-up. As one pursues a sister-less career, the other overdoses and slips into a Christmas Eve coma. Throughout the evening, three unlikely spirits (Bob Saget as the 'Ghost of Christmas Then', Courtney Love as the 'Ghost of Christmas Now' and Rick James as the 'Ghost of Christmas Round-The-Bend') attempt to show her what is worth more as she is offered a life-changing decision which could alter the course of Hollywood history forever. The entire second act has the cast performing as the characters and actors of ABC's family sitcom *Full House*.

## Critical reception

*The Misadventures of the Wholesome Twins* sold out of its showcase but did not find as much success in a full-length production. Its sketch comedy style seemed better suited for the short form musical review. Critical response was mixed with reviewers able to find silver linings around the show's flaws. Sarah Bolson, theatre critic for OffOffOnline.com wrote:

"...a self-proclaimed work of camp, the outlandish story filled with requisite cliches: drugs, money and a white Rick James, adds to its charm."

# Edward Montagu, 1st Baron Montagu of Boughton

**Edward Montagu, 1st Baron Montagu of Boughton**, KB (c. 1562  15 June 1644), also known as **Sir Edward Montague of Boughton Castle**, was an English politician.

## Life

Montagu was the son of Sir Edward Montagu and his wife Elizabeth Harington, a daughter of James Harington of Exton. He matriculated at Christ Church, Oxford in about 1574 and graduated BA on 14 March 1579. He was a student of the Middle Temple in 1580. He succeeded his father in 1602.

In 1584, he was elected Member of Parliament for Bere Alston, in 1597 for Tavistock and in 1601 for Brackley. He was created Knight of the Bath by James I at his coronation on 25 July 1603. He was appointed High Sheriff of Northamptonshire for 1595–96.

In 1604 Montagu was elected MP for Northamptonshire. On 9 February 1605, with other gentlemen of Northamptonshire, he presented a petition to the king in favour of those ministers in the county who refused subscription. The petitioners were warned that their combination "in a cause against which the king had shewed his mislike … was little less than treason." Montagu was for the time deprived of his lieutenancy and justiceship of the peace in the county. He was one of the key founders of what is known today as Guy Fawkes Night through his sponsorship, in Parliament, of the Observance of 5th November Act 1605. He was re-elected MP for Northamptonshire in 1614 for the Addled Parliament and in 1621. He was created Baron Montagu of Boughton on 29 June 1621.

Montagu supported King Charles I in the Civil War, which led to his arrest in August 1642. He was imprisoned for a time in the Tower of London, but was moved to the Savoy Hospital due to ill health, and died a prisoner in 1644. He was buried at Weekley.

## Marriages and issue

He married three times:

* Firstly to Elizabeth Jeffrey, the daughter and heiress of Sir John Jeffrey of Chiddingly, Sussex, by whom he had a daughter:

* Thirdly he married Anne Crouch, a daughter of John Crouch of Corneybury, Hertfordshire, and widow successively of Robert Wynchell, Richard Chamberlain and Sir Ralph Hare of Stow Bardolph, Norfolk.

title: Pocho La Pantera

abstract: Ernesto Aníbal Gauna Fonseca, known professionally as Pocho La Pantera (Spanish: Pocho the Panther), was an Argentine master of ceremonies, actor, singer of Argentine cumbia, and author of successes such as El hijo de Cuca (1990), Me dicen la pantera (1991) and El paso de la fiesta (2016).

# Pocho La Pantera

**Ernesto Aníbal Gauna Fonseca** (29 November 1950 – 1 November 2016), known professionally as **Pocho La Pantera** (Spanish: **Pocho the Panther**), was an Argentine master of ceremonies, actor, singer of Argentine cumbia, and author of successes such as *El hijo de Cuca* (1990), *Me dicen la pantera* (1991) and *El paso de la fiesta* (2016).

## Biography

In addition to his musical work, Gauna, born in Buenos Aires and raised in Córdoba, performed in various activities throughout his life, from his beginnings as a student of theology in Australia until his appearances as an actor in various series, both in television series and online and offline.

He took his first steps in music in the 1980s. Along with Ricky Maravilla, Alcides, Lía Crucet, Gladys la bomba tucumana and Gilda, he was a benchmark in the genre of the cumbia in Argentina. He wrote songs such as "El hijo de Cuca", "Bailando con la gorda", "A mover el esqueleto", "La arañita", "Señorita diga quien es", "Cantinero le bajo la caña", "Me dicen la pantera", "Comprale un choripan", among many others.

His confession to his drug addiction and his eternal struggle with this problem determined, for several years on television media, his image. In 2015, photographs of him naked with tanned skin became popular on the internet and WhatsApp among young audiences.

A convert to evangelicalism, he married Viviana Basilia (*«La Griega»*). Pastor Giménez, one of the best-known Evangelical pastors in Argentina, officiated his wedding. Although his passage by the Evangelical Church was rather short, he managed to record a cassette, two CDs and a video (VHS). In 2013, he recorded an advertisement for Pepsi company next to Argentine footballer Ezequiel Lavezzi.

He died in Buenos Aires at age 65 on November 1, 2016, as a result of renal carcinoma. He was hospitalized for a week in serious condition in the IMAC (high-complexity Medical Institute). On 21 October he published his last message on the social networking site Twitter: "*Recuerden esto: ustedes me dieron todo. Gracias por el aguante*." (in English: "Remember this: you gave me everything. Thank you for the support.")

title: Charmaine Borg

abstract: Charmaine Borg is a Canadian politician who served as the New Democratic Party (NDP) member of Parliament for the riding of Terrebonne—Blainville in Quebec from 2011 to 2015.

text:
# Charmaine Borg

**Charmaine Borg** (born November 3, 1990) is a Canadian politician who served as the New Democratic Party (NDP) member of Parliament for the riding of Terrebonne—Blainville in Quebec from 2011 to 2015.

## Early years

Borg was born on November 3, 1990, in Oakville, Ontario as one of seven children, though her family moved to Keswick, Ontario when she was one year old. She is of Franco-Ontarian and Maltese descent, and is fully bilingual in French and English, though she preferred to speak French on the floor of the House of Commons.

After creating a drama program for at-risk youth, Borg won the Lieutenant Governor's Community Volunteer Award in 2008.

At the time of her election, Borg was a student studying political science and Latin American studies at McGill University and was also working as the Labour Relations Officer for the Association of McGill University Support Employees. She was also co-president of the student New Democratic Party club at McGill University.

## Entrance to politics

Borg was one of five current McGill students, alongside fellow undergraduates Mylène Freeman, Laurin Liu, and Matthew Dubé, and graduate student Jamie Nicholls, elected to Parliament in the federal 2011 election following the NDP's unexpected mid-campaign surge in Quebec. She defeated incumbent MP Diane Bourgeois of the Bloc Québécois by 49.3 percent to Bourgeois' 30.3 percent—a margin of over 10,600 votes. By comparison, the NDP had never finished higher than fourth since the riding was created in 1997, and only once had tallied the 10 percent required for their campaign expenses to be refunded.

She was the third-youngest member of the 41st Parliament, after Liu and Pierre-Luc Dusseault, and one of the youngest women ever elected to Parliament. The 2011 election marked the first time she had voted in a federal election.

Borg and Dubé were co-presidents of NDP McGill (the NDP student group at McGill University) at the time that they both won election to Parliament, and both had spent the campaign working to re-elect Thomas Mulcair in the nearby riding of Outremont. Borg had originally planned to spend the Fall 2011 term as a foreign exchange student in Mexico.

After her riding was split almost in half ahead of the 2015 federal election, Borg ran in Terrebonne, essentially the western half of her old riding. She was pushed into third place behind the BQ's Michel Boudrias and Liberal Michèle Audette amid the Bloc resurgence in the Laurentides.

## In Parliament

In Parliament, Borg was named to the Standing Committee on Justice and Human Rights, where she intervened against the Conservative government's omnibus crime bill, C-10, and the closure imposed on its debate, as well as Bill C-30, the Conservative bill on warrantless online surveillance. In the Fall of 2012, Borg embarked on a tour across Eastern Canada and the Maritimes to increase pressure on the Conservative government to abandon the bill. After months of public backlash, the Conservative government finally scrapped Bill C-30 in February 2013. Borg called the death of this bill a "great victory and a way forward for politics."

In the leadership race following the death of NDP leader Jack Layton, Borg endorsed Brian Topp.

On November 12, she was profiled by CPAC's *Beyond Politics.*

### Katimavik

In 2012, Borg embarked on a cross-country tour to rally support for a Private Member's Motion she presented, M-352, to reinstate Federal funding to the recently cut Katimavik program.

#### Digital Issues

In April 2012, newly elected NDP leader Thomas Mulcair appointed Borg to the Shadow Cabinet of the Official Opposition. She was given the position of Digital Issues Critic, and became the youngest full critic in the history of Canada. Simultaneously, she was transferred from the Standing Committee on Justice and Human Rights to the Standing Committee on Ethics, Privacy and Access to Information. In one of her first acts as Digital Issues Critic, Borg launched at study at the Ethics, Privacy and Access to Information Committee to investigate the privacy practices of social media companies. During the study's hearings, MPs heard from numerous experts and industry representatives including Facebook, Twitter and Google.

#### Bill C-475

Following through on the study into social media and privacy, Borg presented Bill C-475 to the House of Commons in February 2013. The bill seeks to amend the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) to introduce mandatory data breach reporting and enforcement powers to the Privacy Commissioner. Bill C-475 has received the endorsements of several privacy and internet experts, along with consumer protection and civil liberties groups.

A campaign called "My Privacy Online" was launched to support the progression of Bill C-475 through the House of Commons. The bill saw its first hour of debate at Second Reading on May 23, 2013, the same day that the Privacy Commissioner of Canada released a position paper calling for similar reforms to PIPEDA.

#### Bill C-486

In response to calls from youth in her constituency of Terrebonne-Blainville, Borg collaborated with and seconded MP Paul Dewar's Bill C-486 in March 2013. Bill C-486 seeks to end the use of conflict minerals in Canada, particularly those originating in the Great Lakes region of Central Africa.

# Edwards's long-clawed mouse

***Notiomys edwardsii***, also known as **Edwards's long-clawed mouse**, **Edward's long-clawed akodont**, or **Milne-Edwards' long-clawed mouse**, is a rodent in the tribe Abrotrichini from southern Argentina. It is the only species in the genus *Notiomys*, although species of *Chelemys* and *Geoxus* were formerly included in that genus.

## Description

Edwards's long-clawed mouse is a small mouse with a short tail, having a total length of about 137 mm (5.4 in), including a tail of about 40 mm (1.6 in). The dorsal fur is dense and soft and about 8 mm (0.3 in) long, each hair having a grey shaft and being tipped with ochre, giving an agouti effect. The underparts have grey hairs tipped with white, and the two body colours are separated by grey hairs tipped with orange. The eyes are small, the snout is tipped with a pink, leathery button, and the sides of the muzzle have orange spots. The whiskers are white, the longest being about 8 mm (0.3 in) in length. The pinnae are small and rounded, the thin margins being clad in white hairs. The tail is well furred, being buffy-white above and white below. The fore feet have long nails some 4 mm (0.16 in) in length. The hind feet are short and broad, being fringed with bristly hairs at the sides, and having furred heel pads and naked soles; they have 3 mm (0.12 in) claws.

## Distribution and habitat

The species is endemic to Santa Cruz Province, Chubut Province and Río Negro Province in southern Argentina. Its typical habitats are shrubby and herbaceous steppe, grassy steppes and rocky plateaus with shrubs and bunchgrass.

## Ecology

The ecology of this burrowing mouse has been little studied. It mostly feeds on insects but may also consume seeds. One specimen was found inside the burrow of a Haig's tuco-tuco (*Ctenomys haigi*). Before 1998, only eight localities across Patagonia were known. More recently, as a result of more-intensive surveys, over fifty localities have been identified, some by finding the remains of mice in owl pellets.

## Conservation status

Edwards's long-clawed mouse has a wide range and is present in several protected areas. It is common in some places and uncommon in others, and is assumed to have a large total population. No particular threats have been identified and the population appears to be steady, so the International Union for Conservation of Nature has assessed its conservation status as being of "least concern".

# Tom Ervin

**Thomas Jonathan Ervin** (born May 14, 1952) is an American attorney, former judge, one-time politician and former radio station owner. A past member of the Republican Party, he also served in the South Carolina House of Representatives from 1979 through 1983. He had been running for Governor of South Carolina in the 2014 gubernatorial election as an Independent, but in late October he dropped out and endorsed Democratic nominee Vincent Sheheen.

## Career

Ervin graduated from Erskine College with a bachelor's degree in history, and then the University of South Carolina School of Law in 1977. He was elected to serve in the South Carolina House of Representatives, representing the seventh district, as a member of the Democratic Party. He served from 1979 through 1983. Ervin has not held any type of public office since this term expired in 1983. He served two terms in the state House, and then served on the South Carolina Workers’ Compensation Commission. He served a circuit court judge for 14 years.

In 2005, when House Speaker David Wilkins was named United States Ambassador to Canada, Ervin ran in the special election to replace him as a member of the Republican Party. He lost the election. He then challenged Jean H. Toal, a member of the South Carolina Supreme Court, in a 1996 election, which he also lost. Ervin desired to run against Nikki Haley, the incumbent Governor of South Carolina, in the Republican primary for the 2014 gubernatorial election. In the November 2014 general election Ervin had planned to appear as a petition candidate for governor, after the South Carolina Election Commission certified his candidacy on July 23, 2013. However, in late October, he dropped out and endorsed Democratic nominee Vincent Sheheen suddenly without any real explanation.

Ervin and his wife practice law together in Greenville, South Carolina. Ervin also purchased WRIX-FM, WRIX and WANS, three Anderson County radio stations, in 2013. However, in late 2014, he donated the radio stations to a local non-profit religious foundation that owns and operates local southern gospel radio stations.

## Personal life

Ervin and his wife, Kathryn, have two children. Ervin is a born-again Christian.
