# Vojvoda (Serbia and Yugoslavia)

**Vojvoda** (Serbian Cyrillic: Војвода lit.'war-leader') from old Serbian was the highest rank in the army of the Kingdom of Serbia and Kingdom of Yugoslavia from 1901 until end of Second World War in 1945. It has roots from the medieval term Voivode used during medieval Kingdom, Empire and Principality of Serbia. Vojvoda in medieval and later principality of Serbia had similar meaning as Duke title in other feudal states as it was military and noble title. In modern military terms the rank of Vojvoda is comparable with Field marshal and Generalfeldmarschall but since it can be an honorable title it is not always a military rank of a commissioned military officer.

It was first created with the passing of the law on the *Organization of the Army* of the Kingdom of Serbia in 1901 and later confirmed in Kingdom of Yugoslavia laws on the *Organization of the Army and Navy* from 1923 and 1929. Law from 1901 was passed on the suggestion of Lieutenant colonel (later Divisional General) Miloš Vasić who was Minister of the Defense at the time. The rank was awarded only during the war for *Particular military contributions of top generals.*

In the Balkan Wars and World War I this title was used to designate the highest military rank in Serbian Army. The first Vojvoda was promoted by the *Great military decree* of the Kingdom of Serbia on October 20, 1912. Only four people ever officially held that rank: Radomir Putnik (in 1912), Stepa Stepanović (middle 1914), Živojin Mišić (late 1914) and Petar Bojović (1918). Before this rank was introduced, the highest rank in the Kingdom of Serbia was Army general. After Second World War, the newly formed Yugoslav People's Army stopped using Royal ranking system, so this rank ceased to exist.

## Insignia of rank

The rank insignia of a Vojvoda was an epaulet consisting of braids and in the middle was added a two-headed white eagle, the national emblem of the Kingdom of Serbia. In 1923 the design of epaulets remained the same with one amendment, the national emblem of the Kingdom of Serbia was replaced by the state coat of arms of the Kingdom of Yugoslavia.

## Introduction of rank

In late 1897 and early 1898 took place the fracture stages in the development of the army. King Milan returned to Serbia and initiated the process of military reform. The most important date in the history of the Kingdom of Serbia was December 25, 1897. On that day, King Alexander I of Serbia signed two decrees. The first re-established active Army Command, which was supposed to start work on Saint Sava next year, while the other was the appointment of King Milan as the new commander. On the same day, an active Army Command is a military regulation that was subordinate to the Ministry of the military. In practice, this was not so, because practically active military commanders commanded all commands, units and military institutions, while a Minister of Defense has no right to use military force, and he turned into a military administrator. At that time, the First Minister of War was Dragomir Vučković who had the rank of colonel. He formally subordinate to the commander of the active army held the rank of general. When the post of Minister of War set up Jovan Atanacković who had the rank of general, there is a need for the introduction of a new military rank for the active military commander.

### Former rank

The change in the structure of the army from 1897 to 1900 year was a time when new military ranks were introduced. The then existing Law on Organization of the Army from 1886 included eight military ranks. Sub-lieutenant, Lieutenant, Captain II class, Captain I class and they were lower officer ranks, while major, lieutenant colonel, colonel and general where were higher officer ranks. At this time new ranks were introduced warrant officer and army general that was honorary rank. In December 1898, King Alexander I had signed a decree and authorized the then minister of defence to submit it for approval to the assembly. The new command is related to the increase in salaries of lower-ranking officers and generals grading rank within: Brigade, Divisional and Corps. This command is not passed with the amendments in the national assembly, but for a little more than a year in a modified form, this project is finally realized.

At the XXVI regular session of the National Assembly, following the report of the Military Committee, adopted new amendments to the Law on the organization of the army. Minister Ilija Stojanović during the parliamentary debate, before the adoption of the law, emphasized the need for introducing a higher rank than the current staff, the act of army general. According to him, the victim would not be large because the Serbian Army had one, and then in the future two or three. It was clear that the new act is intended for an active army commander to King Milan. The opposite opinion was Živan Živanović, who pointed out that the allocation of this act, in this case, had more political than military significance. This is supported by the aforementioned fact that King Milan, before returning, it is not intended that their military rank, raised by this, but by their desire other military action, which was the title of the Supreme Commander. Therefore, in the summer of 1897 addressed to Stojan Novaković opinion, if anyone other than Karađorđe, was the holder. How Novaković did not know that the founder of the house Obrenović, Prince Miloš was in the Second Serbian uprising, also holds the title of Supreme Leader, King Milan knowing only then that the founder of another dynasty holder of this title, he refused to accept the proposal of this title.

And without this title, the former king has become the holder of the highest military rank in the state, and not only in relation to all the other generals, but also in relation to his son, the then supreme commander King Alexander I. Decision Assembly, and adopted the draft Law on amendments to the Law on the organization of the army, confirmed King Alexander January 12, 1900. Two days later (January 14), the new act is due to the merit of the two-year work on reforming the Army awarded the King's father. The act was introduced due to the rise of the military rank of King Milan. According to the legislation on the organization of the Army (Article 27), *the rank of an army general was granted to only by the monarch any general regardless of the time spent in a general's rank*. The departure of the King of the Kingdom of Serbia, Milan, gone is the main reason for the existence of this act. General Mihailo Srećković successor as commander of the active army, wasn't promoted to this rank. The new law on the organization of the army from 1901 (Article 7), contrary to earlier, it is not anticipated that the Minister of War in command only performs the tasks laid down in-laws and was administrator of the army.

### Vojvoda rank

The new law on the Organization of the army of January 27, 1901, whose creator was then Minister of War, Lieutenant Colonel (later Divisional general) Miloš Vasić, has introduced a new highest military rank in the Serbian army. Vojvoda rank brought changes in the general officer ranks. Instead of the previously divided into the upper and lower system, it was introduced a new category for generals, made up of the two highest ranks – General and Vojvoda. The introduction of this act repealed the act of Army General a mark on the epaulets, which previously belonged to the previous act, have been taken as a mark of the rank of Vojvoda. According to the law (Article 17), the *rank of Vojvoda could only get during the war and it had allocated monarch at its discretion*. The new amendments to the Law on Organization of the Army of March 31, 1904, *the rank of Vojvoda could get only in war and in him only improve the general who was awarded for successful work*. On the first promotion to the rank, the Serbian army waited eleven years.

The first promoted general was Radomir Putnik in 1912, and he was the sole carrier of the Vojvoda rank for two years. Stepa Stepanović and Živojin Mišić were acquired this rank in the space of five months in 1914. Petar Bojović earned rank in 1918 and he was the last Serbian general promoted. Essentially, only these four Serbian general have been *de facto* promoted to this rank and had clear hierarchical positions because of it, whereas in all the other cases it was merely a monarch's honorific title, or an honorary decoration as in the case of d'Espèrey.

The newly formed army of the Kingdom of Yugoslavia continued the system of military ranks of the army of the Kingdom of Serbia, with small changes. In 1919, former Austria-Hungarian Generalfeldmarschall Svetozar Borojević filed a petition over the command in Klagenfurt, to be accepted into a new army of the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes. This request had been rejected as Vojvoda Mišić said that one of the Ministers from the Croatia protested. On 19 July 1923, a new law on the organization of the army and navy was introduced graduation generals act modelled on the French system of grading: Brigadier general, Divisional general and Army general. According to the law from the regular structure of general promotion, Vojvoda was singled out and could only be obtained in a war, by exceptional merit.

According to the constitutions of the Kingdom of Serbia and the Kingdom of Yugoslavia, the supreme commanders assumed their rank after taking the oath to the constitution, and the Minister of the Army and Navy awarded them a uniform with the special Vojvoda insignia. Among them are Kings: Milan I, Alexander I (Obrenović), Peter I, Alexander I (Karađorđević) and Peter II. The Constitution permitted that in case of war, in the case of underage the king, deputy Supreme Commander would be Vojvoda active or in reserve.

After the end of World War II, the proclamation of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia on 29 November 1945, and the establishment of the Yugoslav People's Army on April 24, 1946, adopted the military hierarchy modelled on the Soviet Union with Marshal as the highest rank, which however became essentially an honorific title with political connotations used only by Josip Bros Tito. This decree abolished all ranks which had previously been in force, and the Vojvoda rank that existed for forty four years ceased to exist.

# Vomito Negro (band)

**Vomito Negro** is a Belgian electronic band formed in 1983. The name is Spanish and Portuguese for "black vomit", a phenomenon that arises in the last stage of the disease yellow fever.

## History

After numerous successful releases like *Shock*, *Human* and *The New Drug*, and discontent with the result of their last studio album *Fireball*, Gin Devo decided to put Vomito Negro aside for a while and to invest all his energy and creativity in his new project called Pressure Control and released the debut album *Vamp*. After only two more concerts Guy Van Mieghem sold his studio equipment and stopped all musical activities. In 2008 Gin decided to bring back Vomito Negro. After asking BORG, who already was a member of Gin Devo's side project Pressure Control, to join the band. While they successfully toured Europe from 2008 until 2009, the duo started working on the new album.

On January 22, 2010, the band released *Skull & Bones* through Out of Line Records. Some of these new tracks like "Black Tie, White Shirt" and "Darkmoon" were already tested on the crowd of the WGT Festival, in Leipzig and the Bimfest in Antwerp.

In February 2010, just after its release, *Skull & Bones* entered the German Alternative Charts (DAC) on the tenth position, only to climb further up to the second position one week later. Meanwhile, the remake version of their club classic "Move Your Body (V2K10)", which is featured on the bonus disc of the limited edition version, entered the DAC's single charts and reaching 13th place.

In January 2013, the band released the album *Fall of an Empire*.

In 1928, Nevils was made the president of Georgetown University. He became active in elite circles in Washington, D.C., and elevated the prominence of the university in diplomatic and political circles. He also made substantial progress on a highly ambitious plan to transform the campus.

## Early life

William Coleman Nevils was born on May 29, 1878, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, to Andrew P. and Mary Coleman Nevils. He attended Saint Joseph's College in Philadelphia, receiving a Bachelor of Arts and Master of Arts. He entered the Society of Jesus on August 14, 1896, and went to teach Latin and Ancient Greek at Boston College. In 1903, he transferred to the Loyola School in New York City, where he also taught Latin and Greek, and would remain until 1908. Nevils then began his higher studies at Woodstock College in Maryland, where he was ordained a priest in 1911. He completed his priestly training at St. Andrew-on-Hudson, and received a Doctor of Philosophy in philosophy from Woodstock.

### Teaching career

After receiving his doctorate, Nevils became a professor of rhetoric at St. Andrew-on-Hudson. He then transferred to the College of the Holy Cross as a professor of philosophy. After some time, Nevils became a lecturer in sociology at Georgetown University, and in 1918, was named the dean of Georgetown College. In 1919, he simultaneously became the chancellor (academic vice president) of the university, and in 1920, was made the regent of the School of Foreign Service. His tenure as dean came to an end in 1922.

After six years, Nevils left Georgetown in 1924 to become the dean of the Shadowbrook House of Jesuit Studies in Massachusetts, where he would remain for four years. In addition to being dean, he taught rhetoric and pedagogy at Shadowbrook. In 1925, he was proposed to become the next president of Boston College, but it as decided that someone from the Jesuits' New England province would be more suitable.

## Georgetown University

On August 27, 1928, Nevils was elected the president of Georgetown University by the university's board of directors. His inauguration in late October was attended by representatives of 93 American and foreign universities, 26 learned societies, and members of the diplomatic corps, forming the largest gathering of educators ever held at a Catholic college in the United States. This was the first time the installation of a new president of the university was marked by a formal inauguration. During the ceremony, Nevils was awarded a Doctor of Divinity.

Nevils' presidency was characterized by an unprecedented level of engagement with communities outside of the university. One of his priorities was establishing Georgetown as a presence in the political and diplomatic circles of Washington, D.C. He revived the board of regents as a body focused on fundraising, and appointed alumni, as well as business leaders without any connection to Georgetown. He frequently hosted on-campus receptions for various dignitaries and attended diplomatic events in the city. He also became a fourth degree member of the Knights of Columbus, and a member of the Cosmos Club. These overtures were effective in raising the prominence of Georgetown in Washington's elite circles.

During the course of his presidency, Nevils reformed the curriculum of Georgetown College. He recruited several prominent faculty and increased the number of those with doctorates. He also abolished an abbreviated two-year pre-medical program, requiring students intending to go to medical school to complete the standard four-year undergraduate curriculum. Clinical research at the medical school improved under the direction of increasingly prominent clinical faculty. Nevils also raised the stature of the dental department. Throughout his presidency, Nevils aimed to increase the percentage of the faculty who were Catholic.

In 1934, Nevils' second term as president was coming to an end, and a group of faculty and alumni petitioned the Jesuit Superior General to allow Nevils to remain, given the economic turmoil and his proven ability as president. The superior general agreed to allow Nevils to remain for one additional year. In that time, Nevils identified Arthur A. O'Leary as his desired successor. After receiving approval in Rome, O'Leary succeeded Nevils as president in 1935. At the time he resigned, he was the longest-serving president in the university's history, by a margin of six years. In addition to his duties as president, Nevils served as a member of the President's Organization for Unemployment Relief, the United States Naval Academy's board of visitors, and the National Committee on Inter-American Intellectual Cooperation.

### Greater Georgetown plan

One of Nevils' first acts as president was reviving the "Greater Georgetown" plan, which had been devised in the early 1920s, but abandoned by his predecessor, Charles W. Lyons, and for which Nevils had been the primary fundraiser. This plan called for a major expansion of the university's facilities and a consolidation of its schools. The first component of this plan began on January 3, 1929, with the groundbreaking of a new home for Georgetown's School of Medicine. The Medical-Dental Building opened on the northwest corner of the campus in May of the following year. The most ambitious portion of the Greater Georgetown plan was the creation of a new Collegiate Gothic quadrangle, designed by the Philadelphia architect Emile G. Perrot, which would be enclosed by Healy Hall and three new buildings. These buildings would house a dormitory, classrooms, and science facilities, and would cost $2.5 million, equivalent to $44.4 million in 2023. While the original Greater Georgetown plan envisioned the quadrangle being named for the alumnus and Supreme Court Chief Justice Edward Douglass White, Nevils instead changed the name to the Andrew White Memorial Quadrangle, after the early Jesuit missionary to the United States.

Construction on the first component of the quadrangle, the dormitory named Copley Hall, began in 1930. Soon after announcing the project, Nevils was able to quickly raise funds for its construction, despite the beginning of the Great Depression. With funds already secured, the depression actually worked in favor of the university, as it drove down the cost of construction, and the project was finished under budget. Copley Hall, named for the Jesuit missionary, Thomas Copley, officially opened on February 16, 1931, and housed 221 students, a chapel, and a reading lounge. Fundraising for the second building, which would contain chemistry laboratories, classrooms, and administrative offices was more difficult, but construction was able to begin in June 1932. The building was named White-Gravenor Hall, after Andrew White and John Gravenor, two Jesuit missionaries. Rising four stories, its facade was composed of granite quarried from northern Maryland and gray stone repurposed from a recently dismantled bridge spanning Rock Creek. The building was completed in November 1933, and housed 20 classrooms, and several laboratories and large lecture halls. Nevils drew praise for being able to open two grand buildings in the midst of a depression without taking on any debt.

Despite desiring to continue with the ambitious plan to transform the campus, Nevils' intention to complete the Great Georgetown plan was eventually thwarted by the Great Depression. Among his plans that did not come to fruition were the enclosure of the quadrangle with a fourth building, the construction of a new home for the Georgetown University Hospital next to the Medical-Dental Building, the conversion of the existing hospital building at 35th and N Streets into a dormitory for professional student, and the construction of a 4,000-seat gymnasium on 37th Street between O and N Streets. He also sought to relocate the School of Foreign Service and Law School to the main campus. When Georgetown received word that President Franklin Roosevelt was about to close the banks in 1933, it withdrew $200,000 from Riggs Bank and kept it in the rooms of Edmund A. Walsh and the university's treasurer. While the number of undergraduate students dropped significantly between 1928 and 1933, the professional schools saw a slight increase.

## Return to teaching

After leaving Georgetown University, Nevils returned to New York City in 1935. There, he became the pastor of the Church of St. Ignatius Loyola, and the president of both Regis High School and the Loyola School. He held all of these positions simultaneously for five years. For a time, he was also the pastor of St. Aloysius Church. He then returned to Washington in 1940, where while living at Georgetown Preparatory School, he wrote a book about the history of the Jesuits in the United States, in commemoration of the 400th anniversary of the founding of the order. At the same time, he was made the archivist of Georgetown University and the director of its libraries. While in Washington, Nevils lectured on sacred eloquence at Woodstock College, and developed a reputation as a talented and sought-after preacher.

## University of Scranton

In 1942, the Bishop of Scranton, William Hafey, invited the Society of Jesus to take over the administration and ownership of the University of Scranton, which until then had been run by the Lasallian Brothers, who found themselves unable to supply a sufficient number of brothers to staff the school. The Jesuits accepted, and Hafey announced the change to the public on June 12; three days later, the Lasallian Brothers left Scranton. In the interim of the Brothers' departure and the Jesuits' full arrival, the school was run by a layman, Frank O'Hara, as the acting chief executive. The first three Jesuits arrived on June 24, where they found the first classes of the academic year already underway. Nevils arrived on July 7, and was named the president of the university and rector of its Jesuit community by the Jesuit provincial superior. His selection as president came as a surprise to some, as he was already nearing retirement age. The school's existing board of directors was dissolved, and a new one composed of only Jesuits was created. Bishop Hafey then conveyed ownership of all the university property to the new board. With the transition complete, the University of Scranton became the 24th Jesuit university in the United States.

While the university's situation was uncertain, with a large portion of the student body being drafted to fight in World War II, the university's enrollment remained substantial during the early years of the war. An accelerated three-year curriculum was in place, which had been implemented in the aftermath of the attack on Pearl Harbor. With the number of students eventually reduced, the university's sole academic building, Old Main, accommodated all of its classrooms and administrative offices. To offset some of the declining enrollment, the university created an aviation program that trained cadets for the Army Air Corps and the Navy.

The school's finances were also stabilized by requiring the payment of partial tuition upfront, which had previously often gone unpaid. With the Lasallian Brothers' former residence being inadequate to accommodate the number new Jesuits, Nevils decided to convert elaborate Scranton family mansion, which had been recently donated to the bishop, into the Jesuit residence. Shortly after renovating the old Thomson Hospital, known as the annex, it suffered a fire on December 23, 1943, which nearly destroyed the building.

The curriculum of the University of Scranton was improved to more closely align with the *Ratio Studiorum*, which placed a heavier emphasis on philosophy and logic. Nevils sought to establish good relations with the community, frequently speaking before local civic and religious associations. Facing requests from the bishop and local parents to create a high school for educating their younger children, Nevils established Scranton Preparatory School in 1944. It was housed in the annex, which was reconstructed after the fire.

With the end of the war in 1945, and the passage of the G.I. Bill, the university saw a wave of applicants. As enrollment increased dramatically, the University of Scranton soon outgrew its facilities. To accommodate this surge in enrollment, Nevils began leasing space in downtown Scranton, and holding day, twilight, and evening classes. Construction on three new, simple buildings began in 1946, and were completed the following year. Nevils' term as president came to an end in 1947, and he was succeeded by J. Eugene Gallery. While in Scranton, he also served as a member of the boards of directors of the International Textbook Company, International Correspondence Schools, the International Education Publishing Company, and the International Schools Company of Latin America.

## Later life

After stepping down as president of Scranton, Nevils returned to New York City. There, he became the head of the Jesuit magazine *America*, and the president of its publisher, America Press. He also became the father superior of Campion House, the residence for the Jesuit editors of the magazine. In 1953, he returned to the Church of St. Ignatius Loyola as the spiritual director of the Jesuit community, where he would remain until his death. He also continued to teach at Regis High School and the Loyola School.

In February 1955, he became ill with coronary thrombosis. His health worsened in October, and he died on October 12, 1955, at St. Vincent's Hospital in New York City. A funeral service was held at the Church of St. Ignatius Loyola, and was attended by approximately 100 Jesuits. His body was returned to Georgetown University, where it was buried in the Jesuit Community Cemetery.

Throughout his life, Nevils had been honored by the governments of Yugoslavia, Chile, Romania, Czechoslovakia, France, and Jerusalem, and was admitted to the Order of the Crown of Italy in 1933. He also received honorary doctorates from Loyola University of Los Angeles and Saint Joseph's College. In 1957, Georgetown University created the Nevils Building, formed by connecting several former hospital buildings. In 1965, Nevils Hall, a student residence, was opened at the University of Scranton.

***Thousand Yard Stare*** is the fifth studio album by Mornington Peninsula, Melbourne indie band The Fauves.

The album marked the departure of founding bassist Andrew Dyer, who was replaced by longtime sound engineer Teddy Cleaver. It was also a return to the band's original label, the independent Shock Records, after being dumped by Polydor following a takeover of that label by Universal.

## Details

Melbourne's *Herald Sun* noted the album abandoned the two-guitars approach in favour of cheap synthesisers and broadened the band's rock base to encompass disco and eletro-funk. Singer/guitarist Andrew Cox said: "Our two records prior to this were very guitar-pop records and we weren't keen on making the same album again. Being fairly limited guitarists there was only so far in this direction we could progress. So the keyboard thing is just an interesting way for us to explore a few more sounds."

Cox told *The Age* that album was a collection of "happy songs". "I think it's just more of a pop album. Our last album (*Lazy Highways*) was possibly our most introspective album, quite a melancholy one, whereas I think this one is a bit more brasher and a little bit more upbeat, probably just more straight-out happy songs. We just felt pretty positive while we were making it and really happy with it as we were going along. I think it was the whole thing of doing it ourselves, without having people looking over our shoulder and telling us we had to have this and that on there, and constantly reinforcing that we had to sell 'x' number of units."

Of the recording, Cox said, "With Polydor having shredded us like the incriminating files of an outgoing government, we faced our straitened circumstances with barely a trembling lip. We cinched our belts to impossibly small dimensions, made sure our intestines stayed in place and recorded for about $20K."

"Celebrate the Failure" was one of the singles released from the album, with Cox saying he was frustrated that it was interpreted as a comment on the Sydney Olympics. "That was a song that we were really passionate about. The title refers to the failure of the referendum on the republic and also the failure of reconciliation. Rock music is meaning less and less as it goes along. It's all about marketing, songs that will go well next to a cola ad on TV." Later, Cox noted, "When we made *Thousand Yard Stare* we thought people would love it because we knew it was clearly our best record but people hated it even more."

Clemens Broadcasting Company (later renamed WBRB, Inc.) applied to the Federal Communications Commission for permission to build a new 500-watt station, to broadcast directionally during daytime hours, which was granted by the FCC on December 14. The new station began broadcasting on May 18, 1957, from studios on South Gratiot Street.

Wright & Maltz Incorporated, the partnership that later became Malrite Communications, acquired WBRB in 1959. An FM counterpart, WBRB-FM 102.7, began broadcasting on November 6, 1960; this station began broadcasting country music at night, when WBRB was off the air on AM, in 1965. Under Malrite, WBRB continued its intensive focus on programming about and for Macomb County. The WBRB stations were still Macomb County's only commercial outlets in 1976, and they offered hard-hitting local news and feature programming, including high school sports, tradio, and local news.

Malrite put the WBRB stations on the market in the late 1970s, and the FM and AM operations were sold to separate owners. Inner City Broadcasting Corporation acquired the FM outlet, with its signal more capable of reaching Metro Detroit, in 1978, whereupon it became WLBS. After a buyout attempt by the WBRB general manager failed to materialize, Radcom, Inc., a company owned equally by comedian Gilda Radner, her brother, and two other business partners, purchased the AM station the next year. The Radcom years were unhappy for WBRB, which saw advertising revenues decline, and for Radner's business ventures. The format was changed to big band music in 1982—using Primetime Radio, a satellite-delivered service of Taft Broadcasting—with new WWHK call letters, though ratings did not improve. By 1983, the Radners and Detroit financier Neil Goodman had sued each other over the management of several co-investments, which included WBRB, an apartment complex, and a Detroit parking garage. The station then ceased broadcasting in February 1984 while the FCC evaluated an application made to move WWHK to 1160 kHz.

After a sale to a group led by retired physician Harley Robinson, WBRB returned to the air—and to its former call letters—in November 1985 after an absence of some 18 months. The new ownership group returned WBRB to its roots as a station with a community focus alongside "non-offensive rock" titles (adult contemporary music). The hope was that advertising would improve; by the end of the decade, WBRB's format had changed to motivational speeches mixed with adult contemporary music. However, the loss of the FM frequency limited the AM's reach severely. The station's final day of broadcasting was January 15, 1990; after its evening sports talk show, WBRB left the air for good, and 25 full- and part-time employees lost their jobs.

# Thomas Curley (Wisconsin general)

**Thomas Curley** (May 8, 1825  February 24, 1904) was an Irish American farmer, soldier, and Democratic politician. He was a member of the Wisconsin State Assembly, representing Crawford County in the 1883 and 1885 sessions. During the American Civil War, he served as an officer in the Union Army, rising to the rank of brigadier general.

## Background and military service

Curley was born in Tremane, near Athleague in County Roscommon, Ireland, on May 8, 1825, and received a common school education. He immigrated to the United States in 1851, and settled at first in St. Louis, Missouri, where he became an active member and officer of several militia companies. He entered the military service in 1860, as a first lieutenant in the Missouri Volunteer Militia's Southwest Battalion, and served for six months on the frontier of the state. In June 1861, after the outbreak of the Civil War and the Camp Jackson Affair, he enlisted in the United States Army, and was commissioned a major in the 7th Missouri Volunteer Infantry, known as the "Irish Seventh". Curley was promoted in May 1862 to lieutenant colonel, and in July of that year he was sent home to Missouri to recruit, raising in a short time the 27th Missouri Volunteer Infantry, of which he was made colonel. He participated in the Vicksburg Campaign, the capture of Jackson, the campaign of the XV Army Corps from Vicksburg to Chattanooga, and the battles of Lookout Mountain and Missionary Ridge. He was with William Tecumseh Sherman in his march to the sea; fought at Resaca, Dallas, Kennesaw Mountain, Jonesborough, and Lovejoy's Station, and in the capture of Savannah and Fort McAllister. He was in the campaign through South Carolina which captured Charleston and Columbia; was in on the battle of Bentonville, capture of Raleigh, and many minor campaigns.

He was breveted brigadier general on March 17, 1865, for meritorious services during the war, and returned to St. Louis with his regiment.

## Life after Missouri

Curley moved to Wisconsin in 1867, first settling in Mount Sterling.

In 1871, he was one of several Irish-American veteran officers who participated in an attack (not officially sanctioned by the Fenian Brotherhood and thus not considered by all a true "Fenian raid") by a combined force of Irish-Americans and Pembina-area Métis on the Hudson's Bay Company trading post at the international border in October 1871. The Americans were captured by a unit of the American army, and released after a hearing in which it was concluded that such an attack, however imprudent, did not violate American law. The Métis were not so lucky.

He moved to the town of Haney, in 1874. He was a town supervisor in 1878, and ran for the Assembly that year, losing with 746 votes to 989 for Republican Atley Peterson, and 710 for Greenbacker S. L. Wannemaker.

Curley was elected to the Assembly in 1882 by five votes, drawing 1042 votes, to 1037 for Republican T. L. Brown, and 264 for old opponent Wannemaker, now running as a Prohibitionist. He served as chairman of the standing committee on the militia, and on the committee on federal relations. He was re-elected in 1884 for the 1885-86 session, with 1,614 votes to 1,585 for Republican Peterson (to whom he had lost in 1878); in that session, Curley remained on the committees on the militia, and moved to the committee on agriculture.

He was not a candidate for reelection in 1886, and was succeeded by Republican Hugh Porter.

## After the Assembly

His wife Elizabeth, like himself a native of Ireland, died in 1887. He died February 24, 1904, in Madison, and is buried with Elizabeth in Saint Gabriel Cemetery in Prairie du Chien.

title: Pilanesberg

abstract: The Pilanesberg is a mountain in the North West Province, South Africa. The mountain is an ancient volcanic structure, circular in shape, that rises from flat surrounding plains. It is formed by three concentric ridges or rings of hills, of which the outermost has a diameter of about 24 km. The Pilanesberg is located 100 km to the North-West of Pretoria and is for the greater part enclosed in a protected area known as Pilanesberg National Park. The Elands River flows South of the Pilanesberg in an Easterly direction. There are a number of platinum mines right at the perimeter of the crater formation. The name "Pilanes" comes from a historic Tswana chief named Pilane.

# Pilanesberg

The **Pilanesberg** (formerly **Pilandsberg**) is a mountain in the North West Province, South Africa. The mountain is an ancient volcanic structure, circular in shape, that rises from flat surrounding plains. It is formed by three concentric ridges or rings of hills, of which the outermost has a diameter of about 24 km. The Pilanesberg is located 100 km to the North-West of Pretoria and is for the greater part enclosed in a protected area known as Pilanesberg National Park.

The Elands River flows South of the Pilanesberg in an Easterly direction. There are a number of platinum mines right at the perimeter of the crater formation.

The name "Pilanes" comes from a historic Tswana chief named Pilane.

## Geology

Although geographically located within the Witwatersrand range, the mountain is geologically part of a feature known as the *Pilanesberg Alkaline Ring Complex*. It is a vast ring dike of a very ancient extinct volcano that last erupted some 1,200 million years ago.

The Pilanesberg is one of the largest volcanic complexes of its type; there are few similar alkaline volcanic structures in the world. Different types of syenites, including a number of rare minerals, occur in the crater area.

The formation of the Pilanesberg occurred 2 billion years ago. As its zenith, the volcano towered to 7,000 metres in height. Over the time, a series of volcanic eruptions occurred. There were further outpourings of lava, craters collapsed, ring fracturing took place around the volcano and magma was squeezed into these fractures. The result is several "onion rings" of rocks of different ages. Erosion over many millions of years has stripped away the mountain and the highest peak. What we see today is not so much a volcanic crater, but a cross section through the magma pipes that were located at great depth below the mountain's summit.
