# Kingdom of Talamanca

The **Kingdom of Talamanca** was a political entity existing during the historic period covered from the Executive Decree issued by the Costa Rican government on July 25, 1867, recognizing the Talamanca indigenous monarchs as "political chiefs" of the region, until the death of their last king Antonio Saldaña in 1910, apparently poisoned, and who died without heirs thus putting an end to the line of succession.

## History

The region of Talamanca was populated mainly by natives of the Bribris, Cabécares, Teribes, Changuinolas and Borucas ethnic groups and was never completely defeated by the Spanish conquerors. That is why the political dominance of the Costa Rican central government was little more than symbolic. Successive indigenous revolts happened in the area including those of the terbis (1544), chánguinas (1610), urinamas (1678) and tariacas (1709). The most notorious would be that led by the cacique Pablo Presbere executed by the Spaniards on July 4, 1710 in Cartago.

By 1862 there were three indigenous kings in the Talamanca Mountains; Chirimo, Lapis and Santiago Mayas, who were recognized as political leaders officially by executive decree on July 25. Mayas' cousin William Forbes, alias "King Willie" and Birche would take over after the death of Lapis. They ruled over a population of approximately 3,000 natives, mostly Bribris and Cabécares. Birche would be dismissed by the governor of Limón for alleged abuses of power in 1874, the crown falling entirely on Forbes, although at this point his leadership was symbolic because the de facto governor was the US Marine John H. Lyon, married to an indigenous noble woman and who held the official position of regent or reductor of Talamanca. Forbes led an indigenous revolt against the political authorities that would lead to be declared in absentia by the central government, he was accused of murder and dismissed by the governor of Limón thus his position was granted to his nephew Antonio Saldaña on May 23, 1880. On July 4, 1890, he was granted an official salary for "services provided to the San Bernardo de Talamanca neighborhood" of 40 pesos per month. Saldaña had an ambivalent attitude toward the Costa Rican government, on the one hand opposing the sending of teachers and the military service of indigenous people, and on the other requiring President Cleto González Víquez greater investment and development in the area. He opposed the intervention of the United Fruit Company in his fief with, according to oral tradition, sabotage to plantations and railroads.

Saldaña held the crown for three decades, although more as a decorative figure than a political one, however his moral weight allowed him to exert influence over the indigenous settlers and his opposition to the exploitation of the United Fruit Company in the area earned him powerful enemies. He died almost at the same time as his nephew and heir José according to the Bribri (matrilineal) tradition. It is suspected that both poisoned. Although his second nephew Ramón Almengor (Siarke) claimed the title was only recognized by the bribris. The end of the lineage that ended with the Blu caste or Bribri royal caste was a cultural blow so the kingdom as such came to an end and the territory would be fully integrated into the rest of the country.

title: Kingdom of Tavolara

abstract:
The Kingdom of Tavolara is a purported micronation on Tavolara Island, off the northeast coast of Sardinia. Set up by the Bertoleoni family, allegedly sanctioned by Charles Albert, King of Sardinia, it claims to be one of the smallest kingdoms in the world. The island was known in ancient times as Hermea. According to tradition, Pope Pontian died in Tavolara following his abdication and exile in 235. It is probably the island previously called Tolar, which was used by some Arab ships in 848–849 as a base to attack nearby coasts. Joachim Murat visited Tavolara in 1815 during his attempt to regain the Kingdom of Naples. At that time the island was uninhabited. Giuseppe Bertoleoni claimed to be its monarch. When he died in the 1840s, his eldest son became King Paolo I.
During his reign, in 1861 the Italian government paid 12,000 Italian lire for land at the northeast end of the island to build a lighthouse, which began operating in 1868.
After Paolo's death in 1886, a number of newspapers published the report that according to his will, the island had become a republic. The New York Times described a government with a president and council of six elected every six years by a vote of the people, regardless of gender. Others reported on Tavolara's alleged third presidential election in 1896. These reports, however, did not end the Bertoleoni kingdom.
The third king of Tavolara was Carlo I, who was succeeded upon his death in 1928 by his son King Paolo II. Paolo went abroad, however, and left Carlo's sister Mariangela as regent in his absence. Mariangela died in 1934, leaving the kingdom to Italy.
Her nephew Paolo II still claimed the kingdom until he died in 1962, a year that marked the installation of a NATO station on the island. The present head of the Bertoleoni family is Tonino Bertoleoni, who runs "Da Tonino", a restaurant on the island. Politically, the interests of the micronation are represented in its external dealings by Ernesto Geremia of La Spezia, Liguria, Italy, who has written a history of the island. The tomb of Paolo I is in the graveyard on the island, surmounted by a crown.

# Rémy Belleau

**Remy (or Rémi) Belleau** (1528  6 March 1577) was a poet of the French Renaissance. He is most known for his paradoxical poems of praise for simple things and his poems about precious stones.

## Life

Remy was born in Nogent-le-Rotrou. A nobleman (under the tutelage of the Lorraine family), he did his studies under Marc Antoine Muret and George Buchanan. As a student, he became friends with the young poets Jean de La Péruse, Étienne Jodelle, Jean de La Taille and Pierre de Ronsard and the latter incorporated Remy into the "La Pléiade", a group of revolutionary young poets. Belleau's first published poems were odes, *les Petites Inventions* (1556), inspired by the ancient lyric Greek collection attributed to Anacreon and featuring poems of praise for such things as butterflies, oysters, cherries, coral, shadows, turtles. In the 1560s, Belleau tried his hand at a mixed verse and prose form modeled on the Italian pastoral *Arcadia* by Jacopo Sannazaro (French translation, 1544): this became *La Bergerie* (1565-1572), in which narration (in prose) is interspersed with poems on love and the countryside. His last work, *les Amours et nouveaux Eschanges des Pierres precieuses* (1576), is a poetic description of gems and their properties inspired by medieval and renaissance lapidary catalogues. He died in Paris on 6 March 1577, and was buried in Grands Augustins.

Remy Belleau was greatly admired by poets in the twentieth century, such as Francis Ponge.

title: SMS Grosser Kurfürst (1875)

abstract: SMS Grosser Kurfürst  was an ironclad turret ship built for the German Kaiserliche Marine. She was laid down at the Imperial Dockyard in Wilhelmshaven in 1870 and completed in 1878; her long construction time was in part due to a redesign that was completed after work on the ship had begun. Her main battery of four 26 cm (10 in) guns was initially to be placed in a central armored battery, but during the redesign, this was altered to a pair of twin gun turrets amidships. Grosser Kurfürst was sunk on her maiden voyage when she was accidentally rammed by the ironclad SMS König Wilhelm. The two ships, along with SMS Preussen, were steaming in the English Channel on 31 May 1878. The three ships encountered a group of fishing boats under sail; in turning to avoid them, Grosser Kurfürst inadvertently crossed König Wilhelm's path and was rammed, sinking within about fifteen minutes. Between 269 and 284 of her crew drowned. Her loss spurred a series of investigations into the circumstances of the collision, which ultimately resulted in the acquittal of both Rear Admiral Karl Ferdinand Batsch, the squadron commander, and Count Alexander von Monts, the captain of Grosser Kurfürst. Political infighting over the affair led to the ousting of Rear Admiral Reinhold von Werner from the navy.

# SMS Grosser Kurfürst (1875)

**SMS *Grosser Kurfürst*** (or *Großer*) was an ironclad turret ship built for the German *Kaiserliche Marine* (Imperial Navy). She was laid down at the Imperial Dockyard in Wilhelmshaven in 1870 and completed in 1878; her long construction time was in part due to a redesign that was completed after work on the ship had begun. Her main battery of four 26 cm (10 in) guns was initially to be placed in a central armored battery, but during the redesign, this was altered to a pair of twin gun turrets amidships.

*Grosser Kurfürst* was sunk on her maiden voyage when she was accidentally rammed by the ironclad SMS *König Wilhelm*. The two ships, along with SMS *Preussen*, were steaming in the English Channel on 31 May 1878. The three ships encountered a group of fishing boats under sail; in turning to avoid them, *Grosser Kurfürst* inadvertently crossed *König Wilhelm*'s path and was rammed, sinking within about fifteen minutes. Between 269 and 284 of her crew drowned. Her loss spurred a series of investigations into the circumstances of the collision, which ultimately resulted in the acquittal of both Rear Admiral Karl Ferdinand Batsch, the squadron commander, and Count Alexander von Monts, the captain of *Grosser Kurfürst*. Political infighting over the affair led to the ousting of Rear Admiral Reinhold von Werner from the navy.

## Design

The three *Preussen*-class ironclads were authorized under the naval program of 1867, which had been approved by the *Reichstag* (Imperial Diet) to strengthen the North German Federal Navy in the wake of the Second Schleswig War, when the weak Prussian Navy had been unable to break the blockade imposed by the Danish Navy. Initially ordered as casemate ships, the vessels were re-designed as turret ships; they were the first uniform class of ironclads built for the German fleet.

*Grosser Kurfürst* was 96.59 meters (316.9 ft) long overall and had a beam of 16.30 m (53.5 ft) and a draft of 7.12 m (23.4 ft) forward. The ship was powered by one 3-cylinder single-expansion steam engine, which drove a single screw propeller. Steam was supplied by six coal-fired transverse trunk boilers, which were vented into a single funnel. The ship's top speed was 14 knots (26 km/h; 16 mph), at 5,468 metric horsepower (5,393 ihp). She was also equipped with a full ship rig of sails. Her standard complement was 46 officers and 454 enlisted men.

She was armed with a main battery of four 26 cm (10 in) L/22 guns mounted in a pair of turrets placed on the centerline amidships. As built, the ship was also equipped with two 17 cm (6.7 in) RK L/25 guns as chase guns, one in the bow and one in the stern. *Grosser Kurfürst*'s armor was made of wrought iron backed with teak. The armored belt was arrayed in two strakes. The upper strake was 203 mm (8 in) thick; the lower strake ranged in thickness from 102 to 229 mm (4 to 9 in). Both were backed with 234 to 260 mm (9.2 to 10.2 in) of teak. The gun turrets were protected by 203 to 254 mm (8 to 10 in) armor on the sides, backed by 260 mm of teak.

## Service history

*Grosser Kurfürst* ("*Great Elector*") was ordered by the Imperial Navy from the *Kaiserliche Werft* (Imperial Dockyard) in Wilhelmshaven; the date of her keel laying is unclear. According to the historian Erich Gröner, work on the ship began in 1869 under construction number 2, but the historians Hans Hildebrand, Albert Röhr, and Hans-Otto Steinmetz state that construction work on the newly built *Kaiserliche Werft* was not completed until December 1869, and that it was not clear whether any work on the ship had begun before the start of the Franco-Prussian War in July 1870 beyond collecting building materials. Furthermore, they state that the specific date has not survived in the available records. The ship's name was originally to have been *Der Grosse Kurfürst*, but it was changed slightly to *Grosser Kurfürst* during construction.

The ship was launched on 17 September 1875; at the launching ceremony, the Chief of the Imperial Admiralty, General Albrecht von Stosch, christened the ship on behalf of Peter II, Grand Duke of Oldenburg, who had been invited for the ceremony but was ill. Work on the ship was largely completed by December 1877, permitting the beginning of sea trials. She was formally commissioned of 6 May 1878, though she still had shipyard workers aboard. The ship was placed under the command of *Kapitän zur See* (Captain at Sea) Alexander von Monts. The lengthy construction period was the result of several factors: the delay caused by the Franco-Prussian War, the inexperience of the new imperial shipyard, and the re-design of the ship after work had begun.

### Collision and loss

In April 1878, the armored squadron was reactivated for the annual summer training cycle, under the command of *Konteradmiral* Carl Ferdinand Batsch. Stosch ordered *Grosser Kurfürst* to join the unit, which included her sisters *Preussen* and *Friedrich der Grosse*, the large ironclad *König Wilhelm*, and the aviso *Falke* after her commissioning on 6 May. She was to join the rest of the unit at 27 May, just three weeks after her crew came aboard the ship and before they were sufficiently familiar with the vessel. Batch recognized that the crew was not ready for major operation, but he instructed *Grosser Kurfürst* to join him anyway to comply with Stosch's orders. A grounding by *Friedrich der Grosse* caused serious damage to her hull and prevented her from taking part in the upcoming training cruise. The three ships left Wilhelmshaven on the 29th, bound for the Mediterranean Sea.

Shortly after leaving Germany, the squadron parted ways temporarily with *Falke* due to engine problems aboard the aviso. While crossing the North Sea, *Grosser Kurfürst* briefly had her rudder stuck, but her crew were able to free it while underway. The ship also had trouble keeping station with the other ironclads, in part due to poor quality coal, but also the inexperience of her boiler room personnel, who had trouble keeping pressure up in the boilers. The ships initially traveled in two columns, the left one led by *König Wilhelm*, which was followed by *Preussen*. *Grosser Kurfürst* steamed to their right by herself. At 02:55 on 31 May, the German ships entered the English Channel and temporarily shifted to a single file formation. The ships soon resumed their original formation, with *Grosser Kurfürst* steaming 400 m (1,300 ft) from the other ships. At 07:40, the ships passed the east light ship at Goodwin Sands, and fifty minutes later, entered the Strait of Dover.

Five minutes after entering the Dover strait, Batsch ordered *Grosser Kurfürst* to close to within 100 m (330 ft) as the waterway narrowed. Monts took direct command of the helm to comply with Batsch's command. At 09:00, the ships passed the narrowest point in the straits; they steamed at a speed of 9 knots (17 km/h; 10 mph). Shortly thereafter, while passing Folkestone, the ships encountered a barque and a brig sailing on a southeast course, some 600 m (2,000 ft) from the German vessels. In accordance with maritime regulations, *König Wilhelm* and *Preussen* turned to starboard to avoid a collision with the merchant vessels. *Grosser Kurfürst* conformed with the maneuver, but she and *König Wilhelm* accidentally closed with each other. Monts ordered his ship's engines to full power and turned hard to starboard in an attempt to avoid the flagship, while Batsch ordered *König Wilhelm* hard to port, but neither vessel was able to turn in time. *König Wilhelm* found herself pointed directly at *Grosser Kurfürst*; her ram bow tore a large hole in *Grosser Kurfürst*'s side. The collision was so severe that *Grosser Kurfürst* was pushed back to port and part of her mizzenmast was torn off, among other damage to the upper works of the ship. Most of the ship's boats on the port side were also destroyed.

*König Wilhelm* disentangled from *Grosser Kurfürst* and slowly returned to her original course, and the latter attempted to follow the flagship on the port side. Flooding aboard *König Wilhelm* was quickly brought under control, but the crew aboard *Grosser Kurfürst* was unable to do so. This was in part due to the fact that the damage hole in her hull was at the location of one of her transverse watertight bulkheads. Worse, *Grosser Kurfürst*'s remaining watertight bulkheads were not adequately sealed, which also contributed to her rapid sinking. As the ship took on more water and the list increased, water began to enter through open portholes as well. Monts had attempted to steer the fatally damaged ship into shallower water, but was unable to cross the approximate 1.5 nautical miles (2.8 km; 1.7 mi) before she capsized and sank. Shortly before sinking, about fifteen minutes after the collision, Monts ordered the crew to abandon ship.

*König Wilhelm* slowly approached and lowered all of her boats to pick up the men in the water, while *Preussen* stopped some 800 m (2,600 ft) away, her captain having decided to strictly follow regulations. Nearby British fishing boats and other vessels also joined the rescue effort. They picked up some sixty men. Monts was picked up by one of *König Wilhelm*'s boats, but it capsized due to overcrowding; he thereafter helped another man stay afloat until they were picked up by another boat. Figures for the number of fatalities vary. Gröner reports that out of a crew of 500 men, 269 died in the accident; Hildebrand, Röhr, and Steinmetz concur with the fatality total, but state that there were only 487 men aboard the ship at the time of the sinking. Lawrence Sondhaus states that 276 men were killed, and Aidan Dodson reports 284 fatalities. Many of the bodies were ultimately buried in Cheriton Road Cemetery, Folkestone, where there is a substantial memorial. Arthur Sullivan, on his way to Paris, witnessed the incident, writing, "I saw it all – saw the unfortunate vessel slowly go over and disappear under the water in clear, bright sunshine, and the water like a calm lake. It was too horrible – and then we saw all the boats moving about picking up the survivors, some so exhausted they had to be lifted on to the ships."

*König Wilhelm* was badly damaged in the collision, with severe flooding forward. *König Wilhelm*'s captain initially intended to beach the ship to prevent it from sinking, but determined that the ship's pumps could hold the flooding to an acceptable level. The ship made for Portsmouth, where temporary repairs could be effected to allow the ship to return to Germany. The survivors were carried home to Germany aboard the two ironclads and *Falke*, which had repaired her engines and arrived in Folkestone by that time. In the aftermath of the collision, the German navy held a court martial for Batsch, the squadron commander, and Captains Monts and Kuehne, the commanders of the two ships, along with Lieutenant Clausa, the first officer aboard *Grosser Kurfürst*, to investigate the sinking.

### Inquiry

In the ensuing inquiry, chaired by *Konteradmiral* Reinhold von Werner, Monts testified that he had not been given sufficient time to familiarize himself with the ship and its crew, who were themselves unfamiliar with the vessel. Monts argued that the mobilization process for the newly commissioned ship should have lasted four to six weeks, rather than the three he had been given. The day before the squadron left Wilhelmshaven, Batsch complained to Stosch that a significant number of dockyard workers were still finishing work on *Grosser Kurfürst*. Werner and the board determined that Batsch was at fault and exonerated Monts. Their report was issued on 22 July. Stosch had attempted to interfere in the investigation by blaming Monts to protect Batsch, who was his protege and his preferred successor. Stosch's attempts to manipulate the court martial prompted Kaiser Wilhelm I to issue a reprimand for his conduct.

Stosch was infuriated that the proceedings had been allowed to become a forum for criticism of his policies, for which he blamed Werner. He appealed to Kaiser Wilhelm, stating that the inquiry had unfairly blamed Batsch, and requested a new court-martial for the involved officers. Simultaneously, Stosch began a campaign to force Werner out of the navy. This was in part to ensure that Batsch would be next in line after Stosch retired. Despite his popularity, particularly with Kaiser Wilhelm I and his son, Werner was unable to resist Stosch's efforts to force his ouster. On 15 October 1878, he requested retirement.

The second court-martial again found Batsch guilty and Monts innocent of negligence. A third investigation, held in January 1879, reversed the decision of the previous verdicts and convicted Monts and the watch officer aboard *König Wilhelm* of negligence, and imposing a prison term of one month and two days for Monts, though the Kaiser refused to implement the punishment. This necessitated another trial, held in early June, which returned to the initial verdict and sentenced Batsch to six months in prison. The Kaiser commuted Batsch's sentence after he had served two months in the fortress at Magdeburg. Disappointed that his protégé had taken the blame for the sinking, Stosch requested another court-martial for Monts, who was found not guilty. The Kaiser officially approved the verdict, which put an end to the series of trials over the sinking of *Grosser Kurfürst*. Batsch submitted his resignation over the incident, but Wilhelm refused to accept it. Instead, he was promoted to *vizeadmiral* (vice admiral) on 3 February 1880.

### Aftermath

The incident provided clear evidence to senior naval leadership that new crews required significantly more time to familiarize themselves with a new ship before they could be pronounced ready for active service. The method for issuing commands to the rudder crews was also changed. Stosch's position both in the naval command structure and politically was weakened. Many navy officers ultimately blamed him for the accident, for having rushed the ship into service. They pointed to his career in the army, frequently citing the argument that "one cannot make a ship ready for service in a few days like a regiment or a brigade." Stosch was known to have been an ally of the liberal-left party of the *Reichstag*, but his relationship with the party was damaged when the reports on the incident, which he had promised to deliver to parliament, were labeled military secrets.

Another consequence of the sinking was to instill an aversion to naval expenditures in the German *Reichstag* that persisted for many years. Among the effects of this reluctance to spend on the navy was the refusal to authorize funding for new capital ships for most of the 1880s. In addition, the design for the ironclad *Oldenburg*, which was to have been a member of the *Sachsen* class, had to be reduced significantly as a result of the shortage of funds.

The lives lost in the sinking of the *Grosser Kurfürst* are commemorated by a large stone obelisk erected at the Cheriton Road Cemetery in Folkestone, which was erected on 12 January 1881. The sail training ship *Niobe* had brought it from Germany. Another monument was placed in front of the barracks of I. *Seebataillon* to memorialize the naval infantry who had died in the sinking.

An initial survey of the wreck by divers in the immediate aftermath of the sinking revealed the hull to be upside down and in good condition apart from the hole torn by *König Wilhelm*'s ram. British authorities doubted the possibility of raising the ship, but the Germans nevertheless sent a team aboard a steamer *Boreas* and the aviso *Loreley* to make an initial attempt, which was not successful. A private salvage company offered to raise the wreck to recover her guns and other equipment, but it, too, came to nothing. Engineers at the *Kaiserliche Werft* in Kiel experimented using compressed carbon dioxide, but their tests did not work. The Germans considered additional projects to salvage the wreck as late as 1903.

In 2020, it was announced by Historic England that the memorial would be listed as a Grade II listed building, and the wreck itself would be scheduled under the Ancient Monuments and Archaeological Areas Act 1979, allowing recreational diving under license but prohibiting salvage or removal of artifacts.

# S.C. Salgueiros

**Sport Comércio e Salgueiros** (Portuguese pronunciation: \[sɨˈpɔɾ kuˈmɛɾsi.u i salˈɣɐjɾuʃ\]), commonly known as simply **Salgueiros**, is a Portuguese multi-sports club from the city of Porto, in the northern region of the country. Its most well-known department is its football department but the multi-sports club has also departments for other sports, such as American football, athletics, baseball, and esports.

Founded on 8 December 1911, in the parish of Paranhos, its main men's football team plays in the Campeonato de Portugal, which is the fourth tier of Portuguese football. Although they are based in Paranhos, they currently play their home matches at the neighboring parish of Campanhã's Complexo Desportivo de Campanhã which can accommodate 1,000 spectators.

The football department has a B reserve team, called S.C. Salgueiros B, which plays in lower leagues.

## History

### Foundation

In 1911, a group of friends (João da Silva Almeida, Aníbal Jacinto and Antenor) decided to fund a football club after watching a game that opposed FC Porto and S.L. Benfica at the Campo da Rainha. The friends would gather after work and dinner at lamp 1047 between the streets of *Constituição* and *Particular de Salgueiros* to debate ideas and build their new club. Thus was formed **Sport Grupo e Salgueiros**.

The club had no money at the time, so the three founders decided to gather money by singing Christmas songs from door to door during the 1911 Christmas season. They collected a total of 2800 reis, which was enough to purchase their first football. They decided their jerseys should be red like Benfica's as a way to separate themselves from city rivals FC Porto. Their first pitch would be at the Arca D'Água, and the team's first matches were against Sport Progresso, Carvalhido Football Club, and others.

In the 1916–17 season, the team name was changed to **Sport Porto e Salgueiros** as a matter of local pride (and maybe also for its similarity with *Sport Lisboa e Benfica*). However, in 1920, after a profound economical crisis, *Sport Porto e Salgueiros* decided to join forces with another local club named **Sport Comércio**. This resulted in the name change of **Sport Comércio e Salgueiros**.

### Golden years

From the 1930s, when the national leagues commenced, to the 1970s, Sport Comércio e Salgueiros was a mainstay of the Second Division, with the occasional participation in the First Division. That trend changed in the beginning of the 80's, with team being able to maintain respectable placings and playing for several consecutive years in the top tier. The highlight was a 5th place in the 1990–91 season that enabled the club to participate in European competitions for the first (and so far only) time. In the 1991–92 UEFA Cup, Salgueiros played Cannes in the first round and lost on penalties. Among the players in the French team was Zinedine Zidane. Salgueiros last participation in the first division was in the 2001–02 season.

### Decline and resurgence

In 2004–05, facing perhaps its biggest economical crisis since its foundation, the senior football team was administratively relegated from the second division to the third-tier league. Due to the financial crisis, all the players in that season were non-professional, mostly upgraded players from the junior team. The club had also recently lost its emblematic stadium, (Estádio Engenheiro Vidal Pinheiro), which had been sold to the city hall in order to build a subway station at its location, and had no home arena in which to play their matches or to practice. Due to the dramatic financial situation and debts, with the club prevented from registering professional players, the senior team ceased to exist at end of the season.

After three years dormant, a Salgueiros team made its comeback to senior football as a new club named **Sport Clube Salgueiros 08** for the 2008–09 season. However, the youth teams remained using the *Sport Comércio e Salgueiros* name. Starting with a senior football team, the new club soon expanded to futsal and handball teams, also creating female sections for football and handball. In their first season in the district leagues in 2008–09, the football team averaged home attendances of over 2,200 people per game, the 15th highest average attendance nationally, proving that support for the charismatic club was as strong as ever. They started in the Porto FA Second Division (the 7th tier of Portuguese football), coming first in their series and gaining access to the final which decided promotion to the Porto FA First Division. They managed to win the final and gain access to the First Division. Three more promotions in four seasons led Salgueiros from the regional leagues to the Campeonato Nacional de Seniores (now Campeonato de Portugal), the third-tier of Portuguese football, for the 2013–14 season. At the end of the 2014–15 season, the club changed its name to **Sport Club Salgueiros**.

On 8 December 2015, the club announced it had regained the rights of the original *Sport Comércio e Salgueiros* and would return to its former name and symbols at the start of the 2016–17 season.

# GURPS Planet Krishna

***GURPS Planet Krishna*** is a role-playing game supplement published by Steve Jackson Games (SJG) in 1997 that helps a gamemaster design a *GURPS* (*Generic Universal Role-Playing System*) campaign using the *Viagens Interplanetarias* science fiction setting of L. Sprague de Camp.

## Contents

In 1949, L. Sprague de Camp published the "sword and planet" science fiction novel *The Queen of Zamba* in *Astounding Science Fiction* that was set on the alien planet Krishna, where all post-feudal technology is banned. Over the next 40 years, de Camp wrote a series of over 20 novels and short stories using the same setting that became known as the *Viagens Interplanetarias* series after a human interplanetary trading company of that name. *GURPS Planet Krishna*, subtitled "Swashbuckling Adventure in Space", is a supplement that describes the Viagens Interplanetarias setting, enabling a gamemaster to design a swashbuckling *GURPS* campaign set on Krishna. The book starts by covering interplanetary political and trade organizations and locations. The main focus of the book is the world of Krishna, and information includes geography, technology, laws, climate, transportation, culture, religion, indigenous creatures, and notable characters and locations.

The book includes a revision and updating of de Camp's essay "The Krishna Stories," originally published in the fanzine *New Frontiers*, v. 1, no. 1, December 1959 (another version appeared as an introduction to his Krishna novel *The Prisoner of Zhamanak* (1982). The version in *GURPS Planet Krishna* differs in some respects from the previously published versions. The maps of the Triple Seas region and the city of Zanid in *GURPS Planet Krishna* are based on originals by de Camp that appeared in the *New Frontiers* version of the essay, while the maps of the spaceport of Novorecife and the stars of the *Viagens* setting are new). The "Timeline of Krishna" near the end of the book also makes use of the *New Frontiers* version of the essay, which included a chronology of the early Krishna stories.

## Publication history

In the 2014 book *Designers & Dragons: The '80s*, game historian Shannon Appelcline noted that Steve Jackson Games decided in the early 1990s to stop publishing adventures, and as a result "SJG was now putting out standalone *GURPS* books rather than the more complex tiered book lines. This included more historical subgenre books. Some, such as *GURPS Camelot* (1991) and *GURPS China* (1991), were clearly sub-subgenres, while others like *GURPS Old West* (1991) and *GURPS Middle Ages I* (1992) covered genres notably missing before this point."

*GURPS Planet Krishna* is one such standalone book, a 128-page softcover book by James Cambias, with cartography by Ann Dupuis, interior art by Dan Smith, Terry Tidwell, Arthur Roberg, and Carol Scavella, and cover art by Kelly Freas. The book was published by SJG in 1997.

## Reception

In the December 1997 edition of *Dragon* (Issue #242), Rick Swan admired this book, noting that it "includes pretty much everything you need to cobble together a Krishna campaign, with an emphasis on culture and daily life." Swan liked the tone of the book, commenting that writer James Cambias "writes with assurance and clarity." He did warn that "*GURPS Krishna* isn’t for everyone — if you’re a stickler for logic, you’re gonna hate this — but it's paradise for role-players with a sense of humor." He also noted the lack of a complete adventure, telling gamemasters "Be prepared to do some homework." Swan concluded by giving the book an above average rating of 4 out of 5, saying, "Nothing enlivens a dreary campaign like an oddball setting, and \[this book\] showcases oddballs of the first rank. Strip away the sci-fi elements, ditch the *GURPS* statistics, and you’re left with plenty of raw material for an eye-opening campaign."

# GURPS Prime Directive

***GURPS Prime Directive*** is a sourcebook for *GURPS*, first published in 2002. It is named after the Prime Directive in *Star Trek*, the universe it adapts. It spawned several associated sourcebooks.

## Contents

*GURPS Prime Directive* allows players to play any type character, also allows cross-genre moves to be made, and includes limited elements of the *Traveller* Universe.

## Publication history

After the folding of Task Force Games and the cancellation of the original *Prime Directive* line, Amarillo Design Bureau, Inc., the new publishers of Star Fleet Universe games, were left with the question of what to do with *PD*. They were primarily a wargame company, and the poor sales of the supplements were cause for a reexamination. Eventually, they approached Steve Jackson Games to use the *Powered by GURPS* format.

*GURPS Prime Directive*, as a part of the "Powered by *GURPS*" book line, was published in 2002 under license by Amarillo Design Bureau to depict the world of *Star Fleet Battles*. Task Force Games produced *GURPS Prime Directive* for third-edition *GURPS* (2000) and *GURPS Prime Directive* for fourth-edition *GURPS* (2004). Amarillo Design Bureau continued publication of Prime Directive books for the *GURPS*, *d20*, and *d20 Modern* game systems.

Originally *GURPS Prime Directive*, the *GURPS Klingons* imperial source book and *GURPS Module Prime Alpha* module were released under the third edition of *GURPS*. The new fourth edition of *GURPS* prompted a rework of the previous major books (*GPD* and *GK*) and a delay of the (then) upcoming *Romulans* sourcebook (which became one of the first 4th Edition *GURPS* supplements). *Module Prime Alpha* (and its intended sequel, *Module Prime Beta*) were dropped from the line, due to poor sales.

The following *GURPS* 4th Edition books were released aside from the core rulebook, *GURPS Klingons*, *GURPS Romulans*, and *GURPS Federation* have been released for this new system.

## Books

Additional books produced as a subseries of PD include:

* *GURPS Federation*
* *GURPS Klingons*
* *GURPS Romulans*
* *Dread Pirate Aldo*
* *Planet Aldo*
* *Starship Aldo*

# 2006 Cleveland Indians season

The **2006 Cleveland Indians season** was the 106th season for the franchise. It began with the Cleveland Indians attempting to win the American League Central and make the playoffs. The Indians finished with a mediocre 78–84 record and missed the playoffs. It was the final season before Progressive bought the naming rights to then-Jacobs Field.

## Offseason

* December 7, 2005: Paul Byrd was signed as a free agent with the Cleveland Indians.
* January 6, 2006: Todd Hollandsworth was signed as a free agent with the Cleveland Indians.

## Regular season

On September 2, 2006, Kevin Kouzmanoff became the 23rd Major Leaguer to hit a home run in his first Major League at bat, the 12th American Leaguer to do so, and the second of 2006 (along with Adam Wainwright of the St. Louis Cardinals). He was only the third player to have the home run be a grand slam. Kouzmanoff is only one of two players in Major League Baseball history to hit a grand slam on his first *pitch* ever seen in the Major Leagues, along with Daniel Nava. The pitcher who gave up the hit was Edinson Vólquez.

# Kingspade

**Kingspade** was an American rap duo Johnny Richter (Tim McNutt) and D-Loc (Dustin Gary Miller) of Kottonmouth Kings.

## History

### Kingspade

Kingspade debuted with the track "The Adventures of This" on the *Subnoize Rats Compilation* in 2003. One year later the Kottonmouth Kings' sixth full-length album *Fire It Up* was released, including two bonus tracks. One of these was a new Kingspade track entitled "High Riders". On this track it was announced that a Kingspade album was to be released later that year.

In the summer of 2004, Kingspade's debut album was released. This album included the hits "Drunk in the Club" and the previously released "High Riders". Following this release came some touring until they started to work on the next Kottonmouth Kings album. Over the next few years not much was heard from Kingspade other than a few shows here and there.

In 2005, the Kottonmouth Kings released the album *Joint Venture*, which featured two new Kingspade tracks. Also included was an advertisement stating that a new Kingspade album would be released in June 2006. Promotion was also brought upon with in ad included in the Kottonmouth Kings' fourteenth official album, *Koast II Koast*, stating the release would come in the late summer of 2006. This information turned out to be false. Nothing was heard of the album or Kingspade for months until the release of Kottonmouth Kings' *Hidden Stash III*, which included a new Kingspade track entitled "That's How It Goes". A few months later, it was announced that Kingspade would be performing on Kottonmouth Kings' The Joint is on Fire Tour. It was also stated that Kingspade's second release, *P.T.B.*, would be released on April 24, 2007.

Following the release of *P.T.B.*, Kingspade headlined their own tour, accompanied by California-natives 1Ton and UnderRated, who make up the music group Potluck.

Kingspade then rejoined the Kottonmouth Kings on their StrangeNoize Tour. This tour included Tech N9ne, Hed PE, Blaze Ya Dead Homie, and SubNoize Souljaz. Special appearances included the Insane Clown Posse, Cypress Hill and Ill Bill of La Coka Nostra. The tour was to celebrate the Kottonmouth Kings' ninth full-length album, *Cloud Nine*.

They had three tours in the state of Texas, and got into some trouble with authorities there. D-loc would not give a lot of information on this topic, but Richter said this, "Me and D was just rhymin... after the show we headed out to the cars, not knowing that police would be waiting for us. One of the girls that were at the concert had gotten hit by the falling speaker me and D were playin with."

In March 2013, it was announced by Daddy X that KMK was leaving SubNoize and starting up a new label. A few days after the announcement, it was found out that the label would be called United Family Music. In October 2013, Johnny Richter announced via Twitter that he was officially no longer a part of Kottonmouth Kings. He also stated in his comments that he was unsure if he'd continue with music. This instantly conjured bad blood on both sides, with both sides stating "I won't work with them/him again", and simultaneously putting Kingspade on hiatus. In December 2013, he released his second overall solo album titled FreeKing Out EP on SubNoize. D-Loc released a solo album titled Bong Tokes & Love Notes EP in December 2013. Kottonmouth Kings released their first album without Johnny Richter since 1999 with the CD Buddah Shack EP. The group would go on to release one final studio album titled Krown Power on August 28, 2015.

On December 2, 2017, via Instagram, a picture was uploaded showing D-Loc and Johnny Richter reunited and possibly hinting at something happening with the group, as well as a Kingspade Instagram account launching, and an announcement from D-Loc saying he was putting together a documentary on how the group was formed, the career of the group, and the current status of the group. It has some fans saying that the 2 are only together for the documentary and nothing more, to fans hopeful of a classic KMK lineup (D-Loc, Daddy X, Jonny Richter, \[and later\] The Dirtball) album and final tour.

# Kingdom of Elleore

The **Kingdom of Elleore** is a micronation located on the island of Elleore in the Roskilde Fjord, north of Roskilde on the Danish island of Zealand.

## History

During the German occupation of Denmark, the island was purchased by a group of Copenhagen schoolteachers in 1944 for use as a summer camp. They proclaimed the island's tongue-in-cheek "independence" as a Kingdom as a gentle parody of the government structure and royal traditions of Denmark. The teachers claim that the kingdom's ancestry can be traced to a "monastic society of Irish monks who arrived in the middle of the 10th century".

Prior to 1944, the island was known mainly as the location at which the controversial film *Løvejagten* was shot in 1907.

Numerous traditions peculiar to the kingdom have evolved over the subsequent decades, including a ban on the novel *Robinson Crusoe*, and the use of "Elleore Standard Time", which is 12 minutes behind Danish time. Many of the place names on the island, the kingdom's "government" and the titles assumed by its "nobility" are parodies of Danish equivalents.

The kingdom has issued several stamps and coins.

## Geography and demographics

The island has been estimated to be approximately 15,000 square metres (3.7 acres) in size. Elleore is unoccupied save for a week-long annual gathering attended by dozens of its "citizens" and known as the "Elleuge" (meaning "Elle week"). The ceremonial enthronement of the reigning monarch takes place at this time. The purported capital is the tented town of Maglelille, erected only during the week of habitation.

## Kings and queens of Elleore

Elleore has had seven monarchs since its inception.

* Erik I (1945–1949)
* Leo I den Lille (1949–1960)
* Erik II den Storartede (1961–1972)
* Leo II den Folkekære (1972–1983)
* Leodora den Dydige (1983–2003)
* Leo III (2003–2022)
* Finn I (2022–present)
