# Void (KEN Mode album)

## Background

On June 2, 2023, KEN Mode announced the release of their ninth studio album, along with the single "The Shrike". Speaking of the album, lead vocalist Jesse Mathewson said:

> "This album is the companion piece to 2022's NULL album. Both were written and produced at the same time, throughout the pandemic, and recorded by Andrew Schneider in the fall of 2021. The two-album arc was written with the intention of being two separate works that could be coupled together to make one full album."

# United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas

The **United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas** (in case citations, **N.D. Tex.**) is a United States district court. Its first judge, Andrew Phelps McCormick, was appointed to the court on April 10, 1879. The court convenes in Dallas, Texas with divisions in Fort Worth, Amarillo, Abilene, Lubbock, San Angelo, and Wichita Falls. It has jurisdiction over 100 counties in the northern and central parts of the U.S. state of Texas.

The United States Attorney's Office for the Northern District of Texas represents the United States in civil and criminal litigation in the court. As of December 10, 2022, the **United States attorney** is Leigha Simonton.

Appeals from this court are heard by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit, which includes Louisiana, Mississippi and Texas (except for patent claims and claims against the U.S. government under the Tucker Act, which are appealed to the Federal Circuit).

## Jurisdiction

The Northern District of Texas has seven court divisions, covering the following counties:

## History

The first federal judge in Texas was John C. Watrous, who was appointed on May 26, 1846, and had previously served as Attorney General of the Republic of Texas. He was assigned to hold court in Galveston, at the time, the largest city in the state. As seat of the United States District Court for the District of Texas, the Galveston court had jurisdiction over the whole state. On February 21, 1857, the state was divided into two districts, Eastern and Western, with Judge Watrous continuing in the Eastern district. Judge Watrous and Judge Thomas Howard DuVal, of the Western District of Texas, left the state on the secession of Texas from the Union, the only two United States judges not to resign their posts in states that seceded. When Texas was restored to the Union, Watrous and DuVal resumed their duties and served until 1870.

In 1879, Texas was further subdivided with the creation of the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas, using territory taken from both the Eastern and Western districts.

In the twenty-first century, the Northern District of Texas has become a destination for forum shopping by conservative judicial activists who hope to use the conservative lean of the judges to gain favorable ideological decisions.

## Chief judges

Chief judges have administrative responsibilities with respect to their district court. Unlike the Supreme Court, where one justice is specifically nominated to be chief, the office of chief judge rotates among the district court judges. To be chief, a judge must have been in active service on the court for at least one year, be under the age of 65, and have not previously served as chief judge.

A vacancy is filled by the judge highest in seniority among the group of qualified judges. The chief judge serves for a term of seven years, or until age 70, whichever occurs first. The age restrictions are waived if no members of the court would otherwise be qualified for the position.

When the office was created in 1948, the chief judge was the longest-serving judge who had not elected to retire, on what has since 1958 been known as senior status, or declined to serve as chief judge. After August 6, 1959, judges could not become or remain chief after turning 70 years old. The current rules have been in operation since October 1, 1982.

## Thompson's return to music and teasers leading up to *Truth vs. Beauty*

After the 2010 release of his 4th studio album, *Swansongs*, Thompson announced he was moving on from music. Aside from a 2011 song collaboration with Buddy Miller ("Dang Me") and the Chocolate Genius Twitter feed, Thompson remained mostly inactive.

However, on December 16, 2015, a video was released on No Format's YouTube channel, entitled "Chocolate Genius Inc. – Epilogue 1: Truth vs. Beauty." The video simply consisted of quotes. Then, on July 4, an official teaser for *Truth vs. Beauty* was uploaded. Then, in September, a music video was uploaded for the song "Fortitude." The final activity before the release was one day before the album debuted when the official music video for the song "Detroit" was uploaded.

## Reception

Though the reviews for *Truth vs. Beauty* have been extremely minimal, the reviews the album has received have extremely positive.

# The Athenian (magazine)

***The Athenian*** was an English-language magazine printed in Greece, featuring journalism, commentary, satire, cartoons and essays. Although its reviews and events listings focused on the cultural life of Athens, *The Athenian* had a wide audience of English reading residents of Greece and travelers. It was also known for its illustrated covers, its commentaries on popular and ancient Hellenic culture as well as travel information.

## History

*The Athenian* was founded by Helen Panopalis Kotsonis in 1974, during the final months of the Greek military dictatorship. She was the magazine's owner, publisher, and editor until 1979. Kotsonis was a Canadian of Greek and Scottish parentage, educated at McGill and Columbia Universities. Kotsonis's model was the New Yorker magazine, with an emphasis on Greek cultural events and history; reviews of theater, cinema, art, and archeology; practical information on museums, shopping, and showtimes; and satire. Its targeted readership was English-speaking Greeks, expats, and tourists. Kotsonis wrote in the first issue, "In this journal, we would like to reflect the various cultures that converge here -- and in the process make life in Athens more interesting and understandable." Its covers were emblematic of the era, and a few of them touched on political issues, such as the fall of the military dictatorship in July 1974.

In 1979, the title was bought by Sloane Elliott, who had acted as editorial director, then advisory editor, and finally contributing editor. Elliott was a Yale-educated novelist, playwright, essayist and continued the magazines publication through The Athenian Press Ltd. company, until August 1993.

## Contributors

Contributors included scholars, writers, illustrators and painters who worked on the magazine throughout its publication. Some notable contributors were Kimon Friar, Paul Valassakis, Grover Williamson McDiarmid, Robert Brenton Betts, Loui Silivridou-Pasalari, Paul Anastasi, Kevin Andrews, Elizabeth Boleman-Herring, Willard Manus, Katerina Agrafioti, Marc Dubin, Alec Kitroeff, Yannis Gaitis, Alekos Fassianos, Antonis Kalamaras, Spyros Vassiliou, Spyros Ornerakis, Nikos Stavroulakis and more.

## Editorial and articles

The magazine’s main editorial titled “Our Town” became essential reading for English speaking readers, analyzing the political and social developments of Greece. The magazine offered a community calendar with all of the city's cultural events

# Percier and Fontaine

**Percier and Fontaine** was a noted partnership between French architects Charles Percier and Pierre François Léonard Fontaine.

## History

Together, Percier and Fontaine were inventors and major proponents of the rich and grand, consciously archaeological versions of early 19th-century Neoclassical architecture known as Directoire style and Empire style. They were the official government architects for Emperor Napoleon. They were also "two of the most celebrated teachers at the legendary Ecole des Beaux-Arts."

Following Charles Percier's death in 1838, Fontaine designed a tomb in their characteristic style in the Pere Lachaise Cemetery. Percier and Fontaine had lived together as well as being colleagues.

Fontaine married late in life and after his death in 1853 his wife placed his body in the same tomb according to his wishes.

# Piano Sonata No. 10 (Mozart)

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's **Piano Sonata No. 10** in C major, . 330 / 300h, is one of the three works in the cycle of piano sonatas K.330-331-332. The sonata was composed in 1783, when Mozart was 27 years old. It was published, with the other two sonatas by Artaria in 1784. A typical performance of this sonata lasts around twenty minutes.

The work is one of Mozart's most popular piano sonatas, and has been featured in classical music-related films, such as *Sparky's Magic Piano*. Mozart's autograph of the sonata is held in the Jagiellonian Library, Kraków. The first movement is heard in the Baby Einstein video, Baby Mozart.

## Movements

1. Allegro moderato
2. Andante cantabile in F major
3. Allegretto

### I. Allegro moderato

The first movement typically takes about five to nine minutes to perform. The length of the movement depends largely on whether both repeats (the repeat of the exposition and the repeat of the development and recapitulation) are observed. The movement shows two clear major themes, which have been decorated by the use of ornamentation, as was typical of the time.

The movement is in typical sonata form (composed of exposition, development, and recapitulation).

The first subject is in tonic key of C major and modulates to the dominant, G major, for the exposition of the second subject. The development is more intense and contains wider modulations. In the recapitulation, the first subject is heard, again in C major. The music then modulates to G major, and then returns to C major for the recapitulation of the second subject in the tonic key.

### II. Andante cantabile

The second movement takes between five and seven minutes to perform. The very end of the movement which Mozart wrote, an F major coda, was misplaced in the autograph but appears in the 1784 publication.

This key is F major, the subdominant of C major. After the A section is heard, the music then modulates to the B section in the parallel key of F minor, and its relative key (A-flat major). The movement then modulates to its home key back to the A section, followed by a short coda.

### III. Allegretto

The third movement is the most energetic among the movements of the sonata. Performance times range from three to five minutes. Use of arpeggios is prevalent throughout the piece. Like the second movement, the last few bars were lost in the autograph as well.

# Vogue (Ayumi Hamasaki song)

"**Vogue**" (uncapitalized as "**vogue**") is a song recorded by Japanese recording artist Ayumi Hamasaki for her third studio album, *Duty* (2000). It was written by Hamasaki, while production was handled by Max Matsuura. It premiered on April 26, 2000 as the lead single from the album. Her third consecutive lead single to be produced by Matsuura, the song is part of a trilogy from *Duty*; the other two singles being "Far Away" and "Seasons".

Musically, "Vogue" was described as a Japanese pop song with musical elements of Latin pop. The lyrics discusses her presence in the music industry. Upon its release, the track garnered positive reviews from music critics, who praised the composition and Hamasaki's song writing. It also achieved success in Japan, peaking at number three on the Oricon Singles Chart and four on the TBS Count Down TV chart. "Vogue" has sold over 767,000 units in Japan.

The accompanying music video for "Vogue" was directed by Wataru Takeishi; it features two children in a post-apocalyptic city, reading a book that contains video imagery of Hamasaki in a cherry blossom field. Both the music video and the song has appeared on several compilations by Hamasaki, including *A Best* (2001) and *A Complete: All Singles* (2008). For additional promotion, the song was featured on several concert tours by Hamasaki including her 2000 self-titled and the Power of Music tour.

## Background and release

"Vogue" was written by Hamasaki, while production was handled by Japanese musician Max Matsuura. The song was composed and arranged by long-term collaborator Kazuhito Kikuchi, whilst Japanese musician Naoto Suzuki co-arranged it. This was Kikuchi's final collaboration with Hamasaki, until he returned as the main composer for her sixth studio album, *My Story* (2004). For the track's instrumentation, Suzuki played the keyboards, Naoki Hayashibe played the guitar, and Takahiro Iida mixed the final composition. It was selected as the lead single from *Duty*, and was released on April 26, 2000 by Avex Trax.

The maxi CD of the single contains the original composition and its instrumental version, plus seven remixes and the b-side "Ever Free". "Vogue" is her first single to include an unreleased non-album b-side since her 1999 single "Depend on You", and remains her final to do so. As a single from the *Duty* trilogy, which included Hamasaki's singles "Far Away" and "Seasons", the singles were released as a DVD single and VHS. It included the three mini-music videos, alongside the making of the videos and a TV commercial. The CD and digital cover sleeve has a close-up of Ayumi Hamasaki's face, edited with digital effects. The song's title, "Vogue", is present on cover. According to Matt Wilce from *Metropolis* magazine, the song's title was influenced by the same titular song by American recording artist Madonna. The standalone CD cover was used as the digital EP cover for the iTunes Store and Amazon.com.

## Composition

"Vogue" was recorded in 2000 at Avex Studios and Prime Sound Studios in Tokyo, Japan. The song was described as a Japanese pop song with musical elements of Latin pop. As part of the trilogy set with "Far Away" and "Seasons", "Vogue" highlights the theme of the present. With this, "Far Away" details the past and "Seasons" discusses Hamasaki's future. The trilogy set also focuses on hopelessness, a reflection of Hamasaki's disappointment that she had not expressed herself thoroughly in any of her previous songs. Based on her song writing, she described her feelings after the writing all the tracks from *Duty* as "unnatural" and was constantly "nervous" for the final result. A staff reviewer from Amazon Japan noticed the trilogy set had a "healing effect" that was absent on Hamasaki's two previous studio albums.

## Critical response

"Vogue" received highly favourable reviews from music critics. Alexey Eremenko, who had written her extended biography at AllMusic, highlighted the song as an album and career stand out track. A staff reviewer from Yahoo! GeoCities reviewed Hamasaki's greatest hits album *A Best*, and singled out the song as one of her best tracks. They commented that "Vogue" was the best examples of "classic J-pop music." Morimosa from Nifty.com complimented Hamasaki's song writing; he compared the song writing to the rest of the songs from *Duty*, and commended how she inducted a "pessimistic" nature rather than "anxiety" or "aggression". Hamasaki hosted an online voting poll for fans to choose their favourite tracks to be featured on her Ayumi Hamasaki 15th Anniversary Tour. As a result, "Vogue" was included on the list. The song was remixed as an orchestral song for her remix album *ayu-mi-x III Acoustic Orchestra Version* (2003), and was commended alongside other tracks for its "rich melody".

## Commercial performance

In Japan, "Vogue" debuted at number three on the Oricon Singles Chart. It lasted for seventeen weeks on the chart, selling 767,660 units by the end of 2000. This became Hamasaki's third highest selling single at the time. Currently, the song is Hamasaki's eighth best selling single, according to Oricon Style. The DVD single, released under the title of *Vogue/Far Away/Seasons* reached at number one on the Oricon DVD Chart, spending seventeen weeks in the top fifty. It is Hamasaki's second best selling DVD single, and her eighth best seller overall. "Vogue" was certified double platinum by the Recording Industry Association of Japan (RIAJ) for shipments of 800,000 units. The single entered at number four on Japan's TBS Count Down TV Chart; it stayed there for two consecutive weeks, and lasted seventeen weeks in the chart. "Vogue" was placed at number twenty-five on their Annual Count Down TV chart in 2000.

## Music video

The accompanying music video was directed by Wataru Takeishi. Because the music video was part of the trilogy set with "Far Away" and "Seasons", only a portion of the song was shot for the video. As a result, the video for "Vogue" lasts for two minutes and fifty-one seconds. The artwork for the single was a screen shoot from the music video. Two out take shots from the video were then used for the artworks for "Far Away" and "Seasons". The music video was included on the DVD and VHS formats of the three singles. The music video also appeared on Hamasaki's DVD compilation box sets: *A Clips Vol.2* (2002), *Complete Clip Box* (2004), *A Clip Box 1998–2011* (2011), and the bonus DVD version with *A Complete: All Singles*.

### Synopsis

The video opens with two children walking through a post-apocalyptic world, with industrial sites in the background. The two children are barred in with barded wire fences. Hamasaki then appears inside a photo album, singing the song in front of cherry blossom trees. Hamasaki's scenes are inter cuts that are featured throughout the entire video. The two children escape by crawling under the fence, but are being watched by camera surveillance.

They are free and start to run around a hilly surface, only to see more industrial sites blowing out fumes in the distance. The two children find an unusual object buried in the sands surface and dig it up. They find an electronic-powered crate, open it, and find a blank photo album. The photo album starts to show the cherry trees from where Hamasaki is singing from, and finally watch Hamasaki singing. The last chorus features Hamasaki singing, fully colored, with the children flipping each page to observe the flowers where Hamasaki is singing from. The final scene features a destructed Empire State Building in the distance, with Hamasaki in the middle of the land by herself; this scene then leads onto the music video for "Far Away".

## Live performances and other appearances

Hamasaki has performed "Vogue" on several concert tours and New Years countdown shows throughout Asia. It has been included in all of Hamasaki's New Years countdown concerts up until the *Ayumi Hamasaki Countdown Live 2006–2007 A*. The song made its debut tour performance on Hamasaki's 2000 Japan Concert Tour. It appeared on her 2002 Stadium Tour and The Power of Music Tour. The song's last live performance was her 2014 *Ayumi Hamasaki Premium Showcase: Feel the love*, in which was supported by her 2014 studio album *Colours*. The song has been included on two of her greatest hits compilations, which are *A Best* (2002), and *A Complete: All Singles* (2008),

"Vogue" was remixed by several professional disc jockeys and producers, and has appeared on several remix albums by Hamasaki. The remixes include the Computerhell and Junkie XL remix on *ayu-mi-x III Non-Stop Mega Mix Version* (2001) and *Ayu-mi-x 4 + Selection Non-Stop Mega Mix Version* (2002), the Dave Rodgers remix on *Super Eurobeat Presents Ayu-ro Mix 2* (2001), the Traditional remix on *Rmx Works from Super Eurobeat Presents Ayu-ro Mix 3* (2003), and the Groove Coverage remix on *Ayu-mi-x 7 Presents Ayu Trance 4* (2011). The orchestral acoustic remix, and its instrumental version, was included on her third orchestral remix album, *ayu-mi-x III Acoustic Orchestra Version* (2001).

# United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida

The **United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida** (in case citations, **S.D. Fla.** or **S.D. Fl.**) is the federal United States district court with territorial jurisdiction over the southern part of the state of Florida.

Appeals from cases brought in the Southern District of Florida are to the United States Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit (except for patent claims and claims against the U.S. government under the Tucker Act, which are appealed to the Federal Circuit).

## History

On the same day that Florida was admitted as a state, March 3, 1845, Congress enacted legislation creating the United States District Court for the District of Florida, 5 Stat. 788. On February 23, 1847, this District was subdivided into Northern and Southern Districts, by 9 Stat. 131. The statute effecting this division set forth the boundaries of the Districts:

\[T\]hat part of the State of Florida lying south of a line drawn due east and west from the northern point of Charlotte Harbor, including the islands, keys, reefs, shoals, harbors, bays and inlets, south of said line, shall be erected into a new judicial district, to be called the Southern District of Florida; a District Court shall be held in said Southern District, to consist of one judge, who shall reside at Key West, in said district...

On July 30, 1962, the Middle District was created from portions of these districts by 76 Stat. 247.

This federal district has the dubious distinction of having had more judges removed through impeachment than any other district, with a total of two, one fourth of all federal judges so removed.

Famous cases heard in the district include the prosecution of former Panamanian military leader Manuel Noriega, the Elián González case, notorious Ponzi schemer Scott Rothstein, a 2000 United States presidential election recount in Florida case, the prosecution of José Padilla, and one of the federal prosecutions of Donald Trump.

## Jurisdiction

The court's jurisdiction comprises the nine counties of Broward, Highlands, Indian River, Martin, Miami-Dade, Monroe, Okeechobee, Palm Beach, and St. Lucie. The district includes the South Florida metropolitan area of Miami, Fort Lauderdale, and West Palm Beach. It comprises 15,197 square miles (39,360 km2) and approximately 6.3 million people. Courthouses, corresponding to the five divisions of the district, are located in Fort Lauderdale, Fort Pierce, Key West, Miami, and West Palm Beach. The court's offices are located in Miami.

## United States attorney and marshal

The **United States attorney for the Southern District of Florida** represents the United States in civil and criminal litigation in the court. As of January 9, 2023, the United States attorney is Markenzy Lapointe.

The United States Attorney's office has a staff of approximately 233 assistant United States attorneys and 227 support personnel. The main office is located in Miami, Florida, with three staffed branch offices located in Fort Lauderdale, West Palm Beach and Fort Pierce and one unstaffed branch office located in Key West. There is also a High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area (HIDTA) office in West Miami-Dade and a Health Care Fraud Facility in Miramar.

On August 28, 2018, **Gadyaces S. Serralta** was confirmed by the United States Senate to be the United States marshal.

## Organization of the court

The United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida is one of three federal judicial districts in Florida. The District has five divisions:

**Fort Pierce** Division comprises the following counties: Highlands, Okeechobee, Indian River, St. Lucie, and Martin.

**West Palm Beach** Division comprises Palm Beach County.

**Fort Lauderdale** Division comprises Broward County.

**Miami** Division comprises Miami-Dade County.

**Key West** Division comprises Monroe County.

## Chief judges

Chief judges have administrative responsibilities with respect to their district court. Unlike the Supreme Court, where one justice is specifically nominated to be chief, the office of chief judge rotates among the district court judges. To be chief, a judge must have been in active service on the court for at least one year, be under the age of 65, and have not previously served as chief judge.

A vacancy is filled by the judge highest in seniority among the group of qualified judges. The chief judge serves for a term of seven years, or until age 70, whichever occurs first. The age restrictions are waived if no members of the court would otherwise be qualified for the position.

When the office was created in 1948, the chief judge was the longest-serving judge who had not elected to retire, on what has since 1958 been known as senior status, or declined to serve as chief judge. After August 6, 1959, judges could not become or remain chief after turning 70 years old. The current rules have been in operation since October 1, 1982.
