# Matthias Untermann

**Matthias Untermann** (born 19 September 1956) is a German art historian and medieval archaeologist.

## Life

Born in Tübingen, Untermann, son of the Indo-Germanist Jürgen Untermann, studied art history, classical archaeology and medieval history at the universities of Cologne and Zurich. In 1984, he was awarded a doctorate in medieval history under Günther Binding in Cologne with the dissertation "Kirchenbauten der Premonstratensian. Untersuchungen zum Problem einer Ordensbaukunst im 12. Jahrhundert".

After Untermann had already worked on numerous excavations and research projects in the Rhineland, in Baden-Württemberg and with the city archaeology in Lübeck during his studies, he became a research assistant at the Landesamt für Denkmalpflege Baden-Württemberg in 1985. There he worked at the Department of Medieval Archaeology and Building Research in Stuttgart and Freiburg im Breisgau, focusing on: Archaeology of the buildings of monastic communities as well as urban archaeology. In this context, he carried out several important excavations on urban archaeology in Freiburg.

In 1998, Untermann habilitated in art history and medieval archaeology at the University of Freiburg under Wilhelm Schlink and Heiko Steuer with the habilitation thesis "Forma Ordinis - Studien zur Baukunst der Zisterzienser im Mittelalter".

In the winter semester 1999/2000 he took over the C3 professorship for European Art History, Old Department, at the Institute for European Art History of the Ruprecht-Karls-Universität.

Untermann is involved with the German Society for Medieval and Modern Archaeology (DGAMN) and edits its newsletter, which has become an important professional journal through his work.

His research interests include:

* Medieval sacred architecture and its furnishings, with particular attention to the border areas with archaeology, medieval history and liturgical history.
* Semantics of medieval architecture
* Archaeology of the High and Late Middle Ages, especially in an urban context
* Methodological questions in the dialogue between regional history - art history - archaeology - building research.

title: Petrocorii

abstract: The Petrocorii were a Gallic tribe dwelling in the present-day Périgord region, between the Dordogne and Vézère rivers, during the Iron Age and the Roman period.

# Petrocorii

Map of Gaul with tribes, 1st century BC; the Petrocorii are circled.

The **Petrocorii** were a Gallic tribe dwelling in the present-day Périgord region, between the Dordogne and Vézère rivers, during the Iron Age and the Roman period.

## Etymology

They are mentioned as *Petrocoriis* by Caesar (mid-1st c. BC), *Petrokórioi* (Πετροκόριοι) by Strabo (early 1st c. AD) and Ptolemy (2nd c. AD), *Petrocori* by Pliny (1st c. AD), and as *Petrogorii* by Sidonius Apollinaris (5th c. AD).

The Gaulish ethnonym *Petrocorii* means 'four armies', or 'four troops'. It derives from the Gaulish stem *petru-* ('four') attached to *corios* ('army'), after a Gallic custom of including numbers in tribal names (e.g. *Vo-contii*, *Vo-corii*, *Tri-corii*, *Suess-iones*). Their name may indicate a relatively recent formation emerging from the union of fragmented small ethnic groups.

The word *corios* derives from Proto-Celtic *\*koryos* ('troop, tribe'; cf. Middle Welsh *cordd* 'tribe, clan'; Mid. Ir. *cuire*), itself from Proto-Indo-European **kóryos*, meaning 'army, people under arms'. The root is also found in other Gaulish tribal names such as the *Tri-corii* or the *Corio-solites*. The root *petru-* stems from Proto-Celtic *\*kʷetwór-* ('four'; cf. OIr. *cetheoir*, OW. and OBret. *petguar*).

The city of Périgueux, attested ca. 400 AD as *civitas Petrocoriorum* ('civitas of the Petrocorii'; *Petrecors* in the 8th c., *Periguhès* in 1466), and the Périgord region, attested in the 7th c. AD as *pagum Petrocorecum* ('pagus of the Petrocorii'; *Petragoricus* in 781, *Peiregore* in the 12th c.), are named after the Gallic tribe.

## Geography

The Petrocorii lived in the present-day Périgord region, between the Dordogne and Vézère rivers. Their territory was located south of the Lemovices and Santones, east of the Bituriges Vivisci, west of the Arverni, and north of the Nitiobroges and Cadurci.

During the Roman period, their chief town was *Vesunna*, corresponding to the modern town of Périgueux.

## History

In 52 BC, they supplied around 5,000 warriors to Vercingetorix, to aid him to fight the Roman legions of Julius Caesar. Strabo mentions their excellence working with iron.

# Nasi gandul

**Nasi gandul** or in Javanese **sega gandhul** (Hanacaraka: ꦱꦼꦒꦒꦤ꧀ꦝꦸꦭ꧀) is a rice dish served in rich, sweet, savoury and spicy beef soup, specialty of Pati Regency, Central Java, Indonesia. Nasi gandul consists of steamed rice topped with slices of beef served in spicy soup with savoury flavour in golden-brownish colour. Nasi gandul is somewhat quite similar to other Indonesian dishes; beef semur, tongseng and Javanese gulai.

## Etymology

The term *gandul* in Javanese language means "hanging". The name was derived from the way of travelling vendor selling this food in the past; i.e. by using *pikulan* or balancing rod; in which the rice and other ingredients are placed "hanging" on the rod. Today however, most of nasi gandul sellers are not mobile and not travelling anymore; most open modest *warung* eatery instead.

## Ingredients

Nasi gandul uses slices of beef, sometimes offals are also included; cooked in spicy and savoury coconut milk-based soup. The spice mixture used in the soup are garlic, shallot, chili pepper, candlenut, ginger, palm sugar, and cinnamon.

The method of serving nasi gandul is quite unique, since the dish is usually served upon banana leaf sheet on a plate. Sprinkle of crispy *bawang goreng* (fried shallot), or *bawang putih goreng* (fried garlic), are added on top prior of serving. Traditionally, it is not consumed using spoon, but using *suru*, which is spoon made from banana leaf.

# Ur-Krostitzer

**Ur-Krostitzer** is a brand of beer from Krostitz near Leipzig, Germany.

Their trademark is a portrait of the Swedish King Gustav II Adolf, who supposedly in 1632 during the Thirty Years' War stopped by the village Krostitz on his way to Leipzig. According to legend he there ordered the local master brewer to bring him a refreshing draught. As a sign of his highest esteem, the king allegedly gave the master brewer a golden ring.

## History

Their brewing privilege was granted in 1534 by Duke Georg von Sachsen to Hans Wahl on the Crostitz manor. In 1738 the brewery sold barley beer (Braunbier). In 1803 malt liquor (Doppelbier) and Kovent (a low-alcohol beer made from leftover wort) were also being brewed there. From 1867 to 1876 both brewery and malt house were completely rebuilt, and another remodeling happened between 1894 and 1899.

The sales figures of beer increased steadily and amounted to 1899 90,352 hectolitres (76,995 US bbl); at that time a staff of 200 was employed in the brewery. In Leipzig 84 restaurants and 110 beer stores sourced "Crostitzer Lagerbier", "Dunkel", "Bohemian style" and according to season "Bock" or "Märzenbier".

In 1904 the term Ur-Krostitzer was used for the first time.

After the brewery was communized during the GDR period of governance, it became part of the Radeberg Group in 1990, since then there were numerous new constructions and conversions.

Today the brewery produces Schwarzbier according to a recipe from an old brewing manual of the brewery and an off-dry Pilsner.

In celebration of the 470 year anniversary, the Ur-Krostitzer Jahresring is given as an award to amateur historians, who concern themselves with the history of the regions Saxony, Saxony-Anhalt, and Thuringia, since 2004.

In 2006 the brewery employed a staff of 112 people, it produced around 374.000 hectoliters of beer and supplied roughly 2600 gastronomical institutions.

# One Finger Death Punch

***One Finger Death Punch*** is a beat 'em up video game developed and produced by Canadian indie studio Silver Dollar Games. It was originally released for Xbox 360 on June 24, 2013 and Microsoft Windows on March 3, 2014, then was ported to Android on March 25, 2015 and ported to iOS on June 12, 2015. The game has two main modes; a campaign and survival mode. In the campaign, the player must navigate a map and beat all of the levels whilst the survival mode has the player fight as long as they can before dying.

## Gameplay

*One Finger Death Punch* is an indie beat 'em up video game where players must survive rounds of enemies in the many different stages using the left and right mouse buttons. Players press either the left or right button, corresponding to which side of their character the enemies are currently on.

There are three difficulty modes both in the story mode and the survival mode: Student, Master, and Grandmaster. These difficulty levels have an effect on how many enemies there are in each stage, the speed of each round, and number of hit-points that the player has.

There are many different rounds in the story mode that each have different weapons, special requirements, and unique elements of gameplay. Some of these include the Light Sword or Nunchaku rounds, where the enemies are all one hit, but they increase in speed and number as time goes on. Boss battles consist of one enemy that has a health bar and requires a certain pattern of buttons to defeat. The pattern is displayed to the user by blue and red bars that represent in what order the player should press the left and right buttons, respectively. Missing a button press or pressing the incorrect mouse button will result in the boss hitting the player.

There are a few versions of the survival mode within *One Finger Death Punch*. Plain survival mode will place the player in an endless Mob Round with some of the other unique gameplay sections randomly occurring, such as a Light Sword section. Blind survival mode makes it so the player cannot see the bar underneath enemies indicating how many times they must be hit and in what order, nor the indication of when they are in range. The player can only rely their reaction time and the color of the enemies, with prompts appearing only for enemies that require a special combination of button presses. There is also a third, secret survival mode, which is the plain survival mode crossed over with Silver Dollar Games' *No Luca No*, where the player must push away a cat named Luca from the center of the screen using the mouse cursor as Luca appears from the left and right side of the screen, blocking the view. Unlocking the second and third survival modes requires at least 500 kills in a round of the preceding survival mode.

## Reception

*One Finger Death Punch* received positive reviews from critics, praising its simple controls, large amount of content and its visual style. However, critics picked up on the game's repetitive nature. Erwan Lafleuriel from Gameblog commented on *One Finger Death Punch*'s simple controls by saying that the game was "Easy to learn, but challenging enough to pass many levels with honours". Hooked Gamers' Matt Porter said that people "could even play One Finger Death Punch with one finger", he concluded the review commenting about the simplistic game mechanics with "The depth behind the simplistic control scheme is impressive up to a point, until it all starts to get a bit samey".

## One Finger Death Punch 2

*One Finger Death Punch 2* was announced on the Silver Dollar Games Facebook page on March 3, 2018, quote, "One Finger Death Punch 2 coming when it's ready." The game was released on 15 April 2019, and on September 30, 2020 for PlayStation 4.

# Lake Kenyatta

**Lake Kenyatta**, also **Lake Mukunganya**, is a lake in Lamu County, in southeastern Kenya.

## Location

The lake is located in Lamu County, approximately 2.5 kilometres (2 mi), southwest of the town of Mpeketoni. (est. pop. 50,000 in 2015). This is approximately 50 kilometres (31 mi), by road, southwest of the port city of Lamu. The coordinates of the lake are: 2°24'45.0"S, 40°40'53.0"E (Latitude:-2.412494; Longitude:40.681396).

## Fauna

The lake supports herds of hippopotami, zebra, monkeys, waterbuck, buffalo and warthog. Also, a large number of wild birds are found here.

## Silting

Due to encroachment from the rapidly increasing population in Mpeketoni, the lake is shrinking as a result of (a) silting (b) humans invading its wetlands (c) drilling of many boreholes in the catchment area and (d) invasion by large herds of domestic cattle.

# Guðni Bergsson

**Guðni Bergsson** (born 21 July 1965) is an Icelandic former professional footballer and former president of the Icelandic Football Association from 2017 to 2021.

As a player, he was a defender who notably played in the Premier League for Tottenham Hotspur and Bolton Wanderers. He also played for Valur and 1860 Munich. He was capped 80 times by Iceland, scoring 1 goal.

## Club career

Born in Reykjavík, Guðni started life in football with his local club Valur but soon harboured ambitions to play overseas. In 1985, he had a trial with English team Aston Villa but they did not follow up their initial interest.

### Tottenham Hotspur

In December 1988, he was to return to England with Tottenham Hotspur, as then manager Terry Venables paid a fee of around £100,000 to Valur, a fee which was then a record sale for the Icelandic club who have since gone on to produce many other top Icelandic exports.

At Spurs, the central defender or full back teamed up with England internationals Paul Gascoigne, Gary Mabbutt, Gary Lineker and Chris Waddle. Understandably, he found it hard to make a regular breakthrough for the London club often filling in intermittently due to injuries or suspension. This did not stop him from becoming a regular for the Icelandic national team, where he eventually became captain winning in excess of 80 caps, which was a record for that country at the time.

He had his most successful spell at Spurs under the management of Venables, but he missed out on the FA Cup triumph of 1991. The appointment of Ossie Ardiles as the Tottenham manager effectively spelt the beginning of the end for Guðni, who feared a life away from football at one stage.

### Bolton Wanderers

In 1995, after being told he could leave Spurs, Guðni began studying to become a lawyer. A trial game for Crystal Palace reserves alerted the then Bolton Wanderers manager Bruce Rioch to Guðni's availability. Rioch could not understand why such a seasoned international was struggling to find a new club. A fee of £65,000 was agreed between Bolton and Tottenham, rising to £110,000 dependent on a certain number of clauses.

Guðni made his Bolton debut in the most extreme surroundings of Wembley Stadium when coming on as a substitute for Scott Green in the 1995 Football League Cup Final defeat to Liverpool. England winger Steve McManaman had given Green a torrid time throughout the afternoon but Guðni's introduction gave Bolton renewed hope, as his first touch was to supply the cross for Alan Thompson to score. This was to be the start of a lifelong affection between Bolton Wanderers and Guðni.

On the eve of the 1995–96 season, he was promoted back to the Premiership with Bolton where he proved to be a cool and assured performer in an otherwise shaky Wandererer's defence. He scored a number of vital goals against Newcastle United, Leeds United and most notably on his return to White Hart Lane as Bolton drew 2–2 with Tottenham Hotspur. Unfortunately, that season ended in relegation for Bolton, but Guðni was eager to help the club bounce back at the first attempt. In 1996–97, the club finished the season as champions of the old Division One (now Championship), with Guðni chipping in with three vital league goals, two of which came in the 7–0 defeat of relegation-haunted Swindon Town.

During the 1997–98 season, the team relegated again, but this time the club showed much more of a fight than in their previous stint in the top league, only losing out to Everton on goal-difference on the final day. Bolton's loss at Chelsea coupled with Everton's draw against Coventry City meant that Guðni and Bolton were back in Division One. That season, Guðni scored one of the goals of the season; on 26 December 1997, Bolton played a home match against fellow strugglers Barnsley with both needing vital league points to climb away from trouble. Guðni equalised for the Trotters shortly before half time with a 35-yard shot from right-back which sailed into the top corner past the goalkeeper David Watson. The next season saw Guðni suffer a series of niggling injury problems and was one of his most frustrating seasons at Bolton. Players such as Mark Fish, Andy Todd, Jon Newsome and Paul Warhurst had all played in the heart of the defence in his absence, rumours even circulated that he may leave but this was soon dispelled.

The following 1999–2000 season saw Bolton and Guðni reach three domestic Semi-Final competitions, losing all of them. First, the club lost out to Tranmere Rovers in a two-legged League Cup semi-final, then were defeated by Premiership side Aston Villa on penalties in a hard-fought encounter at Wembley in a game which Guðni picked up a hamstring injury. Finally they faced Ipswich Town in the Divisional Play-offs in May 2000. Both sides had drawn 2–2 in the first leg at the Reebok Stadium, this making for an excellent second leg in the return at Portman Road. The game was marred by 12 Bolton bookings, the sending off of Robbie Elliott and Mike Whitlow and three debatable Ipswich penalties. Bolton criticised the highly controversial performance of referee Barry Knight claiming that the Orpington official had given Ipswich an unfair advantage. Ipswich later won the game 5–3 after extra-time and it looked as if Guðni would be retiring from football at the age of 35.

However, new Wanderers manager Sam Allardyce persuaded the ever reliable Guðni to sign up for another year and he did not disappoint as he scored 10 goals from defence, putting in a string of excellent performances alongside the likes of Whitlow and Colin Hendry, as Bolton ultimately returned to the Premiership following a 3–0 play off win over Preston North End at the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff.

With rumours again circulating of Guðni's imminent retirement Allardyce talked him into staying for one last season. This proved to be a rocky season for Bolton, only staying up on the last day with a 2–1 victory against Middlesbrough at the Reebok Stadium. Guðni almost scored against former club Tottenham in a game in March 2003 but his header rebounded back off the post.

## International career

Guðni made his debut for Iceland in 1984 and went on to earn 80 caps, scoring 1 goal. His last international came in June 2003 against Lithuania. He is number four in Iceland's all-time international appearances list, behind record-holder Rúnar Kristinsson, Hermann Hreiðarsson and Eiður Guðjohnsen.

## Post-football

Following his retirement from playing, Guðni became the presenter of the football TV-shows *Boltinn með Guðna Bergs* (English: The ball with Guðni Bergs) and *4-4-2* while also working as a lawyer.

On 8 August 2009, Guðni played in a Bolton Legends vs Bolton Legends match that took place before Jussi Jääskeläinen's testimonial. The Legends match finished 0–0.

On 6 March 2012, a man attacked his fellow lawyer, Skúli Eggert Sigurz, at their firm with a hunting knife. Whilst subduing the attacker, Guðni was stabbed twice in the leg. He was later released from hospital, however his colleague remained in a critical condition. On 26 June 2012, the attacker was sentenced to 14 years in prison. Gudni received 800.000 ISK in compensation.

On 11 February 2017, Guðni was elected chairman of the Icelandic Football Association. He resigned on 29 August 2021 following the 2021 Icelandic FA sex scandals.

On 14 November 2021, Bergsson played in a charity match as part of a team of Bolton Wanderers Legends against the current Bolton first team with the match helping to raise money for the mother of Bolton player Gethin Jones, who had been diagnosed with Motor neuron disease. The Bolton first team won 7–4. Bergsson was substituted off after eight minutes having picked up an injury.

# Maud Oakes

**Maud Van Cortlandt Oakes** (1903–1990) was an ethnologist, artist and writer who published her research into the cultures of indigenous tribes in the Americas, including the Navajo of the American Southwest and the Mam of Guatemala. She is best known for her books recording these tribes' ceremonies, art and stories.

## Early life

Oakes was born May 25, 1903, in Seattle, younger daughter and last of three children, to Mary Beekman (née Taylor) and Walter Oakes (1864–1911), whose father was Thomas Fletcher Oakes, the president of Northern Pacific Railway from 1888 to 1893. Walter was the co-founder of the Alaska Steamship Company and president of the Roslyn Fuel Company.

As she grew up in Manhattan, her family's prosperity allowed Oakes to travel. She developed an interest in the culture of Native Americans while visiting Washington State and vacationing on Bainbridge Island in Puget Sound. It was that trip that inspired her to pursue her passion for ethnology, focusing on indigenous tribes of the Americas. Her research included renderings of tribal art and, according to a gallery's biography, "Little is known about her art education, though it can be surmised that this came with her grade school education."

### American southwest

In the 1940s, Oakes received a grant from the Old Dominion Foundation (now the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation) to study the rituals of the Dine (Navajo) people, which resulted in her first book, *Where the Two Came to Their Father, A Navaho War Ceremonial.* In that book, she described the Navajo creation story as well as a ceremony by Navajo singer Jeff King that she witnessed while living on the reservation in 1942–1943.

> "The War Ceremonial was revived by 20th century Navajo to sendoff young Navajo leaving the reservation to serve in the US military during WWII. The ceremonial was intended to protect the soul of the warrior who would be so far from his people. Several hundred Navajo served in the war, including approximately 400 Code Talkers".

Oakes also took that opportunity to replicate the sand paintings used during the ceremony. A series of 18 pochoir stencil prints derived from the original sandpaintings were published in 1943.

### Guatemala

On a similar trip, from late 1945 to early 1947, Oakes lived for 17 months in the village of Todos Santos in a remote part of the highlands of Guatemala as the only outsider. She documented the art and spiritual practices of the Mam tribe and their pre-Columbian cultural roots. One of her resulting books, *The two crosses of Todos Santos,* Oakes described a religious ritual that had survived from Mayan times. In another book, *Beyond the Windy Place,* Oakes talked about her life in the village.

Her papers were published by Princeton University in the 1940s and '50s and republished as part of a collection in the 1990s.

## Later years

Oakes became a student of Carl Jung and made his psychology the subject of her final book, *The Stone Speaks*, which reflected her personal meditations on a large carved stone located in the garden of Bollingen Tower, the name given to Jung's home on Lake Zürich in Switzerland. Oakes was named an honorary member of the C. G. Jung Institute in San Francisco, and became a close friend of actor and researcher Natacha Rambova when she was studying Egyptian artifacts, and at whose apartment Oakes attended classes "on symbolism, mythology, and comparative religion."

Oakes died in 1990 at her home at Carmel, California, at the age of 87, of Alzheimer's disease. She was survived by a niece and a nephew.

# Urawa, Saitama

**Urawa** (浦和市, *Urawa-shi*) was a city located in Saitama Prefecture, Japan.

On May 1, 2001, Urawa was merged with the cities of Ōmiya and Yono to create the city of Saitama.

Since April 1, 2003, the area of former Urawa City has been divided into 4 wards: Urawa-ku, Midori-ku, Minami-ku and Sakura-ku of Saitama City. The city hall and the prefectural government building are located in Urawa-ku.

## History

### Origin and pre-modern history

In the Edo period, the area that became Urawa flourished as a posting station of the Nakasendō, a highway connecting Edo (modern-day Tokyo) and Kyoto. But it was not as big a town as Iwatsuki, which was the only castle town in the area of the modern-day city of Saitama.

### Modern Urawa

* In 1869, the Prefectural Government of Urawa Prefecture was set up, and the Government's Office was located in Urawa.
* In 1871, Iwatsuki, Urawa, and Oshi Prefectures merged to form Saitama Prefecture, and Urawa became the capital of this new Prefecture.
* The 1923 Great Kantō earthquake heavily damaged Tokyo and many nearby cities. Although Urawa is not far from Tokyo, it suffered less damage than Tokyo, Yokohama, and other cities in Kantō region, so many intellectuals, especially painters, moved to Urawa, and this old posting station started to change into a modern city.
* Several neighboring villages then merged into Urawa, and in 1934, Urawa became a city.

### Saitama City era

* On May 1, 2001, Urawa was merged with the cities of Ōmiya and Yono to create the new capital city of Saitama. At that time, the city had a population of 488,000.
* On April 1, 2003, when Saitama became a designated city, the former area of Urawa City has been divided into 4 wards: Urawa-ku, Midori-ku, Minami-ku and Sakura-ku.

title: Incitement to terrorism

abstract: Incitement to terrorism is a category in some national legal systems which may criminalize direct encouragement of acts of violence or praise for proscribed terrorist organizations. It was also prohibited by United Nations Security Council Resolution 1624 in 2005.

text:
# Incitement to terrorism

**Incitement to terrorism** is a category in some national legal systems which may criminalize direct encouragement of acts of violence or praise for proscribed terrorist organizations. It was also prohibited by United Nations Security Council Resolution 1624 in 2005.

## Overview

Legal scholars Daphne Barak-Erez and David Scharia have identified a difference in approach between European and United States laws criminalizing incitement to terrorism; the former tend to focus on the content of the speech and whether it supports terrorist violence, while the latter focuses on whether the speaker is linked to proscribed organizations. The European approach involves explicit limits on freedom of speech, while the United States approach is more indirect.

Incitement is an inchoate offense and is punishable even if no causal connection with a terror attack is proven. Merely establishing terrorism as a potential result of the speech is sufficient.

One major motivation for criminalizing incitement to terrorism is its potential usefulness as an upstream prevention for deadly terror attacks. Some experts even argue that incitement is a *sine qua non* for terrorist attacks.

## International law

United Nations Security Council Resolution 1624, unanimously adopted in 2005, is the first international legal instrument which deals with incitement to terrorism. It was prompted by the 2005 London bombings. United Nations Security Council Resolution 1963 authorizes the Counter-Terrorism Committee of the Security Council to monitor the passage of laws criminalizing incitement to terrorism in member states.

### European law

The Council of Europe adopted the Convention on the Prevention of Terrorism, also in 2005, which requires member countries to pass legislation to criminalize the "public provocation to commit a terrorist offence". This does not cover apologia for terrorism. Although the European Convention on Human Rights protects freedom of expression, incitement is not protected. In *Zana v. Turkey*, the European Court of Human Rights ruled that Mehdi Zana's free speech rights were not violated when he was punished by Turkey for calling PKK, a proscribed terrorist organization, a "national liberation movement". In *Leroy v. France*, cartoonist Denis Leroy's conviction and fine for glorifying the September 11 attacks under French law was upheld by the ECHR.

## By country

### France

Article 24 of the Press Law of 1881 criminalizes the incitement and advocacy of terrorism, as well as apologia for terrorism. As of 2011, the penalty was up to five years imprisonment and/or a fine up to 45,000 euros.

### Israel

Barak-Erez and Scharia identify Israel as belonging to the European tradition, in part because of its legal system's origins in British law.

The Prevention of Terrorism Ordinance, enacted in 1948, remains in force, and was for many years the primary provision criminalizing incitement to terrorism. This ordinance empowers the government to designate terrorist organizations and criminalizes being a member of or supporting such a group. Section 4 of the ordinance states that:

> A person who – (a) publishes, in writing or orally, words of praise, sympathy or encouragement for acts of violence calculated to cause death or injury to a person or for threats of such acts of violence; or (b) publishes, in writing or orally, words of praise or sympathy for or an appeal for aid or support of a terrorist organization . . . (g) commits an act that expresses identification with a terrorist organization or sympathy to it, by waving a flag, displaying a symbol or a slogan or reciting a hymn or a slogan or any similar overt act which clearly discloses identification or sympathy in a public place or in a manner that people who are present in public place can see or hear such an expression of identification or sympathy; shall be guilty of an offense and shall be liable on conviction to imprisonment for a term not exceeding three years or to a fine not exceeding one thousand pounds or to both such penalties.

In *Jabareen v. State of Israel*, the Supreme Court of Israel found that the Prevention of Terrorism Ordinance applied only to designated terrorist organizations rather than the promotion of acts of violence more generally. Following this case, the Knesset replaced Section 4 with a new section, 144D2, which extends the prohibition to incitement of terrorist actions not connected to terrorist organizations.

### Spain

Article 18.1 of the Spanish Penal Code criminalizes provocation to commit any criminal offense and by extension apologia for criminal offenses. Organic Law No. 7/2000 explicitly prohibits, with a penalty of one to two years' imprisonment:

> ...glorification or justification, through any form of public information or communication, of the offenses referred to in articles 571 to 577 refer to belonging hereof or of persons having participated in their perpetration, or the commission of acts tending to discredit, demean or humiliate the victims of terrorist offenses or their families...

### United Kingdom

The Terrorism Act 2006 created the offence of encouragement to terrorism, which prohibits "a statement that is likely to be understood by some or all of the members of the public to whom it is published as a direct or indirect encouragement or other inducement to them to the commission, preparation or instigation of acts of terrorism or Convention offences." Indirect encouragement statements include "every statement which glorifies the commission or preparation (whether in the past, in the future or generally) of such acts or offences". However, they are only criminalized if the speaker intends to cause others to commit terrorist offences.

### United States

Because of the First Amendment, incitement to terrorism or other forms of crime and unlawful violence is constitutionally protected free speech, unless it can be proven that the speech is "directed to inciting or producing imminent lawless action" and "is likely to incite or produce such action". However, in 2010 *Holder v. Humanitarian Law Project*, the Supreme Court ruled that "a criminal prohibition on advocacy carried out in coordination with, or at the direction of, a foreign terrorist organization is constitutionally permissible". This is because such statements constitute material support for terrorism. Some defendants, including Javed Iqbal, who helped the Hezbollah TV station Al-Manar to broadcast, have been convicted of providing material support for terrorism under United States law.

## Conflict with free speech

Incitement to terrorism offenses are considered by some to be an unjustified infringement of free speech rights, and it is argued that general encouragement of terrorism may be a political statement rather than literal encouragement to commit terrorist offenses. However, some advocates of criminalization, such as Yaël Ronen, believe that it is possible and desirable to criminalize a definition of incitement to terrorism which does not excessively infringe freedom of speech.

text:
# Twin Peaks (Placer County, California)

**Twin Peaks** is an 8,878-foot-elevation (2,706 meter) double summit mountain in Placer County, California, United States.

## Description

Twin Peaks is located four miles west of Tahoe Pines and Lake Tahoe, along the boundary that Lake Tahoe Basin Management Unit shares with Granite Chief Wilderness. It is situated on the crest of the Sierra Nevada mountain range, with precipitation runoff from the peak draining east to Lake Tahoe, and west to the Rubicon River via Bear Pen Creek. Topographic relief is modest as the summit rises over 2,400 feet (730 meters) above Blackwood Canyon in 1.5 mile. Blackwood and Ward valleys, which each head near Twin Peaks and terminate at Lake Tahoe, were formed by glaciers. The Alpine Meadows ski area is three miles north of Twin Peaks. The Tahoe Rim Trail traverses the south slope of the peak and the Pacific Crest Trail traverses the west slope, which provide approach options. This landform's descriptive toponym has been officially adopted by the U.S. Board on Geographic Names. It was originally named "Twin Peak" by the Wheeler Survey in the 1870s and it has appeared in publications since at least 1891.

## Climate

According to the Köppen climate classification system, Twin Peaks is located in an alpine climate zone. Most weather fronts originate in the Pacific Ocean and travel east toward the Sierra Nevada mountains. As fronts approach, they are forced upward by the peaks (orographic lift), causing them to drop their moisture in the form of rain or snowfall onto the range.

# Lake Lenthall

**Lake Lenthall** is a lake created by the **Lenthalls Dam** in Duckinwilla, Fraser Coast Region, Queensland, Australia. As a result of a 518 square kilometres (200 sq mi) catchment, it takes a short time in moderate rain events to fill Lake Lenthall to 100% capacity.

## History

The dam and lake were named after the pioneering family in the district. The dam was constructed in 1984 on the head waters of the Burrum River and raised by 2 metres (6 ft 7 in) in 2007. In January 2013 due to heavy rain from ex Tropical Cyclone Oswald, the lake reached its highest recorded level of 30.4 metres (100 ft) which was 4.4 metres (14 ft) over the spillway.

The lake has a relatively small surface area of 766 hectares (1,890 acres), an average depth of 4 to 5 metres (13 to 16 ft). Its main purpose is to supply for town water for Hervey Bay and surrounding townships within the Fraser Coast Region.

## Fish stock

It is stocked with Australian native fish such as barramundi, bass, golden perch and silver perch under the Queensland Governments stocked impoundment permit scheme. Other aquatic species which inhabit the lake include spangled grunter, saratoga, Krefft's turtle, Flinders Ranges mogurnda, rainbow fish, fire tail gudgeon, long finned eel and many more. The lake is home to a myriad of reptiles, insects, bird life and mammals.

### Angling

A *Stocked Impoundment Permit* is required to fish in the dam.

## Other fauna

A significant black-breasted buttonquails reside within the dry vine rain forests on the ridges overlooking Lake Lenthall.

# Maud Nelke

**Maud Julia Augusta Russell** (née **Nelke**; 7 November 1891  27 May 1982) was a British socialite and art patron, who aided Jewish relatives in their escape from Nazi Germany during the 1930s.

## Family

The daughter of Maria and Paul Nelke, German Jewish immigrants, Maud grew up in London in the late 1800s and early 1900s. In 1917, she married Gilbert Byng Alwyne Russell, a lieutenant in the Grenadier Guards. Maud's father, Paul Nelke, later helped Gilbert create the merchant banking firm Cull & Company. They had two sons; Martin Basil Paul Russell, eccentric banker, collector and a patron of Sri Lankan Cubism (1918-2003) and Raymond Anthony Russell. When Gilbert died in 1942 she wrote in her diary: "The main, the fullest, the richest and the most feeling part of life ended with him"

## War diaries

Maud was an avid reader and maintained a beautifully written diary throughout her life. Her diaries, recently uncovered and published, provide a rare record of the development of the war from Maud's perspective.

"She was unfortunate enough to live through both World Wars, suffering from anti-German sentiment during the Great War and helping her Jewish relations to escape Germany in the 1930s. From 1943-1945 she worked on secret propaganda activities at the Admiralty"

## Art and architecture

Maud remains one of the foremost English collectors of modern French art, and enjoyed a friendship with artists such as Boris Anrep of whom she was patron and eventually executrix of his will. Maud was one of the patrons for Boris Anrep's Modern Virtues, a collection of colourful mosaics which decorate the imposing staircase built by Sir John Taylor in 1887 for the entrance hall of the National Gallery, her name and portrait are expressed as the personification of Folly. Rex Whistler was another, who painted the namesake Whistler Drawing Room at Mottisfont in his famous trompe-l'œil style. She also shared a particularly close relationship with Ian Fleming, to whom she notably gave a gunmetal-finished, gold cigarette case which is thought to have been the inspiration for Red Grant's "oval gold cigarette case" in From Russia with Love. Fleming had also worked at Cull & Company.

Maud and Gilbert bought Mottisfont Abbey in 1934, and remodelled it from a building in ruin to a modern estate with the help of her artist friends. In 1957, she gifted the house and grounds to the National Trust but continued to live at Mottisfont until 1972. It was nominated a Grade I listed building in 1957, with the 1938-9 Rex Whistler drawing room a named feature of the listing.

title: Warlock 5

# Warlock 5

***Warlock 5*** is a comic book that was written by Gordon Derry with art by Denis Beauvais and was published by Aircel Comics.

## Publication history

Volume 1 lasted for 22 issues, published from 1986 to 1989. Volume 2 lasted for 7 issues, all published in 1989.

Only the first thirteen issues of Volume 1 were created by Derry and Beauvais before Aircel replaced them with an entirely new creative team, art style, characters, logo, and story with no connection to the original.

These issues, later collected in 2021 by Outland Entertainment in an Omnibus Edition, featured guardians from five different realities in opposition to or in alliance with each other, often seeking to eliminate the others and gain access to their realities but also reluctantly working together to defend or repair The Grid, a nexus-point for their realities.

The original Warlock Five were:

* Doomidor - A crimson-armored dark fantasy warlord

* Zania - A gun-toting chain-smoking anarchist punk rock necromancer

* Tanith - A beautiful platinum-blonde sorceress

* Savashtar - A shape-shifting trenchcoat-wearing humanoid dragon

* Argon - A green Terminator-like cyborg from a techno-hell

As of Volume 1, Issue #14 and onward, the series seems to have had something to do with elves (as depicted on multiple covers).

## Plot

*Warlock 5* is a comic book in which five beings engage in a fight for the thing of ultimate importance.

## Reception

Martin A. Stever reviewed *Warlock 5* in *Space Gamer/Fantasy Gamer* No. 83. Stever commented that "the lure of this book is that the reader is unsure of exactly what is going on. Lots of magic, guns, swords, robots, babes, motorcycles, and very nice art".

***Phasia hemiptera*** is a fly belonging to the family Tachinidae.

## Distribution

British Isles, Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Moldova, Poland, Romania, Slovakia, Ukraine, Denmark, Finland, Norway, Sweden, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Greece, Italy, Serbia, Slovenia, Spain, Turkey, Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Netherlands, Switzerland, Japan, North Korea, South Korea, Iran, Russia, China, Transcaucasia.

## Description

*Phasia hemiptera* can reach a body length of 10–11 millimetres (0.39–0.43 in). In these flies the thorax is usually dark brown, the middle of the very flattened abdomen is dark brown or black, while the sides are hairy orange-brown. The hind legs are generally reddish yellow. These flies are strongly sexually dimorphic. The males are more colourful and have broad curved patterned wings with markings of various colors. Sometimes wings show an iridescent blue-black band starting from the front edge, but they may also be or completely dark. Females have narrower and more transparent wings without markings, also their bodies are narrower.

## Biology

Adults are visible from April to September feeding on pollen of many flowering plants, especially on umbellifers Apiaceae and Asteraceae. There are two generations per year, as this species is bivoltine. The first generation appears from mid-April to mid-June, the second from mid-July to the end of September. Like most tachinid flies, the female lays her eggs on other insects, the larvae then develop inside the living host, devouring it and eventually killing it (case of endoparasitism). Its main hosts are the forest bug *Pentatoma rufipes* in the spring, and the green shield bug *Palomena prasina* in the autumn. The pupation occurs after about two weeks. The adults hatch after two and a half to four weeks, with the males appearing earlier than the females. Males live for a maximum of 31 days, females only 21.
