# Mexborough Town F.C.

**Mexborough Town Football Club** was an English association football club based in Mexborough, Doncaster, South Yorkshire.

## History

Founded in 1962, the club was the third senior club to originate from the town, following in the footsteps of Mexborough and Mexborough Athletic.

They joined the Yorkshire League in their inaugural season, with a runners-up finish securing promotion from Division Two to the league's top flight. They finished runners-up in Division One at the first time of asking, and would enter the FA Cup for the first time the following year. They would again finish as league runners-up in 1969 before finally securing their first Yorkshire League title in 1973. It was around this time that they changed their name to **Mexborough Town Athletic**, and in 1974 they took the decision to enter teams into both the Yorkshire League and the Midland League. This arrangement would only last a year, as the club decided to stay solely in the Midland League.

In 1982 the Yorkshire League and Midland League merged to form the Northern Counties East League (NCEL), and Mexborough were among the founder members of the new competition, being entered into the Premier Division. They were relegated to Division One in 1985 before changing their name back to **Mexborough Town**.

After finishing bottom of the NCEL Division One in 1991, they resigned from the NCEL to join the Central Midlands League, but they would last just two years in this competition before resigning and disbanding.

title: Mexborough engine shed

abstract:
Mexborough engine shed was an engine shed in Swinton, in South Yorkshire, England. It was built by the Great Central Railway and opened in 1875. The shed was built slightly to the west of the current Mexborough station on land between the River Don and the River Don Navigation. It had 15 dead end roads, and could handle about 150 steam locomotives, mainly for use on freight trains. The London and North Eastern Railway operated the shed from 1923. In 1948, on the formation of British Railways Eastern Region, Mexborough bore the shed code 36B, then 41F from 1958. It closed in February 1964. Most of the locomotives stabled at Mexborough were used for hauling coal trains. The coal originated from the many collieries in the South Yorkshire coalfield and wagons of coal were despatched to locations all over the country. However, the main destinations were the industries and power stations in Lancashire. With the opening of the Wath marshalling yard in 1907, Mexborough supplied locomotives for collecting wagons from the collieries, for re-marshalling of the wagons at Wath and for hauling coal trains across the steeply-graded "Woodhead" route across the Pennines into Lancashire. In the 1920s, the depot was the stabling point for what was then the most powerful locomotive in the UK, the London & North Eastern Railway's Class U1 Garratt. It was used for banking heavy coal trains up the Worsborough incline on the Woodhead route. In 1942 during the Second World War, three former Great Eastern Railway LNER J15 locomotives were drafted-in to assist with coal traffic. In the 1950s, the route from Wath to Manchester was electrified. Consequently, the demand for the steam locomotives from the Mexborough depot reduced. The electric locomotives were stabled at Wath rather than Mexborough. Even the steam shunting engines for the marshalling work at Wath yard were replaced by diesel shunters in 1957. The use of steam locomotives for collecting coal from local collieries was also phased out and the depot closed in 1964. The site of Mexborough depot is now occupied by units in an industrial estate off of Meadow Way in Swinton.
In its heyday, the depot had its own football team, Mexborough Locomotive Works F.C.

# Watch Over You

"**Watch Over You**" is a song by American rock band Alter Bridge. Written by lead guitarist Mark Tremonti and lead vocalist Myles Kennedy, it was produced by Michael "Elvis" Baskette and featured on the band's 2007 second studio album *Blackbird*. The track was released as the second single from the album on January 14, 2008, peaking at number 19 on the US *Billboard* Mainstream Rock Songs chart. An alternate version of the track featuring additional vocals by Lacuna Coil singer Cristina Scabbia was also later made available as a digital download.

## Promotion and release

"Watch Over You" was released as the second single from *Blackbird* on January 14, 2008. The song was also featured in a number of episodes of *Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew*, which led to it becoming known as an "unofficial anthem" for the show. It is usually played in a "stripped down" acoustic format, often by lead vocalist and rhythm guitarist Myles Kennedy alone.

In April 2008, an alternate version of "Watch Over You" featuring additional vocals by Lacuna Coil singer Cristina Scabbia was released as a single. Speaking about the collaboration, Scabbia claimed that she was "honoured and grateful for the awesome experience".

## Music video

The music video for "Watch Over You" was directed by John Cummings. The video contains footage from the second season of *Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew*, including scenes in which former Guns N' Roses drummer Steven Adler is featured. It shows Myles singing inside the warehouse. At the end of the video, he is seen outside of the warehouse.

## Reception

### Commercial

"Watch Over You" entered the US *Billboard* Mainstream Rock Songs chart at number 30 for the week of February 2, 2008. It peaked at number 19 four weeks later, spending a total of 13 weeks on the chart. It was also the first single by the band to register on the Adult Pop Songs chart, on which it spent three weeks at number 40 in early 2009.

### Critical

Tom Shackleford of AXS named "Watch Over You" as one of Kennedy's six best vocal performances, claiming that "The song's cooler, autumn-like feel really showcases Kennedy's singing with a beautiful, held-out chorus line before picking up and turning things up a notch as the song reaches its climax".

# Metropolis (EP)

***Metropolis*** is the sixth extended play by Los Angeles–based dubstep producer Kompany. It was released by English record label Never Say Die on February 1, 2019. It contains four songs, including features of singer–songwriter Karra and British grime collective Virus Syndicate.

## Background and release

As a lead up to the extended plays release, the four songs present in it were premiered on various electronic music-focused websites, with "Firewall" being premiered by *Nest HQ*, "Seething" by *ThisSongSlaps*, "Take It All" by *Run the Trap*, and "Last Man Standing" by *EDM Sauce*. Prior to release, the four tracks were only known as IDs seen in various DJ mixes and live-sets.

On February 1, 2019, the extended play was released as a digital download on international digital stores through English record label Never Say Die, as well as being released through various music streaming services.

## Critical reception

*Metropolis* was well received by most critics. Tyler Chance of *Noiseporn* praised the extended plays sound design and production, describing it as "filthy" and "unique" and writing that each track is "unique in its own right" as the extended play traverses such genres as riddim, trap and midtempo bass. Writing for *FUXWITHIT*, Samuel Lewis and Steph Contant stated that the extended play presented Kompany and opportunity to craft "massive soundscapes with astounding depth and detail, crafting a complex labyrinth of bass to captivate and absorb the listener." *Relentless Beat'*s Joshua Dean described the extended play as a story, noting "Firewall" as a "great buildup into an absolutely insane EP" and the last song, "Last Man Standing", as a "faultless ending to this masterpiece."

title: Mi-2/NuRD complex

abstract: In the field of molecular biology, the Mi-2/NuRD complex, is a group of associated proteins with both ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling and histone deacetylase activities. As of 2007, Mi-2/NuRD was the only known protein complex that couples chromatin remodeling ATPase and chromatin deacetylation enzymatic functions.

text:
# Mi-2/NuRD complex

In the field of molecular biology, the **Mi-2/NuRD** (Nucleosome Remodeling Deacetylase) **complex**, is a group of associated proteins with both ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling and histone deacetylase activities. As of 2007, Mi-2/NuRD was the only known protein complex that couples chromatin remodeling ATPase and chromatin deacetylation enzymatic functions.

## Discovery

In 1998, several independent groups reported the discovery of multi-enzyme complexes conferring both nucleosome remodelling and histone deacetylation activities. Xue et al first described the human complex as the **Nu**cleosome **R**emodelling and **D**eacetylase (**NuRD**) - this name has since been adopted for homologous complexes in most organisms.

## Composition

The NuRD complex contains seven subunits: the histone deacetylase core proteins HDAC1 and HDAC2, the histone-binding proteins RbAp46 and RbAp48, the metastasis-associated proteins MTA1 (or MTA2 / MTA3), the methyl-CpG-binding domain protein MBD3 (or MBD2) and the chromodomain-helicase-DNA-binding protein CHD3 (aka Mi-2alpha) or CHD4 (aka Mi-2beta).

NuRD can be subdivided into two discrete subcomplexes which confer neuclosome remodelling or histone deacetylation activity,each of which retains catalytic activity without the presence of the other. The histone deacetylases HDAC1 and HDAC2 and the histone binding proteins RbAp48 and RbAp46 form a core complex shared between NuRD and Sin3-histone deacetylase complexes.

### NuRD-independent Mi2/CHD4 activity

Mi-2/CHD4 may confer NuRD independent transcriptional regulation in some organisms and contexts. For example, in the fly, *Drosophila melanogaster*, the majority of Mi2 biochemically purifies separately from the rest of the NuRD subunits and profiling of NuRD component binding sites indicates that only a minority of loci are co-occupied by both Mi-2 and HDAC. Similar results are reported in mouse embryonic stem cells where CHD4 shares only a minority of binding loci with core NuRD component, MBD3. Independently of histone deacetylase, Mi-2 knockdown in neuronal tissue results in mis-expression of genes that are normally restricted to germline. A similar observation was made in human erythroid cells, in which CHD4 but not Mi-2 is required for suppression of fetal globin genes.

## Biological functions of NuRD

NuRD is traditionally thought of as a primarily repressive complex, and in some contexts it is clear that it does confer this function. For example, NuRD is required to silence genes in neuronal differentiation. However, more recent studies have presented a more nuanced picture of NuRD activity in which it is required for fine-tuning of gene expression during stem cell differentiation to ensure appropriate lineage specification.

# Michael Abramoff

**Michael David Abràmoff** (born 1963) is an American neuroscientist, ophthalmologist, vitreoretinal surgeon, computer engineer, and entrepreneur. He is the Watzke Professor of Ophthalmology and Visual Sciences at the Roy J. and Lucille A. Carver College of Medicine at the University of Iowa.

## Early life and education

Abràmoff was born in Rotterdam, the Netherlands, and received his MD and MS (information theory) from the University of Amsterdam. Abràmoff did his graduate research, leading to a Ph.D. in machine learning, at the University of Utrecht.

## Scientific and medical career

He is inventor on over 60 US and international patents and patent applications primarily related to machine learning, artificial intelligence (AI) and imaging Abràmoff was one of the early developers of ImageJ, a Java-based image processing program. He was the initiator behind the Iowa Reference Algorithms, a series of reference algorithms for OCT segmentation.

Abràmoff has been a proponent of the theory that diabetes complications in the eye and brain are neural, not vascular, in origin, based on his team's earlier finding that microvascular biomarkers of diabetic damage in the retina only occur after neurodegenerative changes. Additionally, Abràmoff has been part of the Moonshot team (formally known as *Restoring Vision: A JDRF Moonshot Initiative*) from the outset. Abràmoff started working on autonomous AI for diagnosis of retinal diseases during his residency in 1997, which led to the publishing of *Low Level Screening of Exudates and Hemorrhages in Background Diabetic Retinopathy* in 2000 and many other papers . This research led to him receiving the nickname "The Retinator" in an *Ophthalmology Times* editorial in 2010, referring to the work he had done to create the first autonomous AI diagnostic system. Roughly a decade later, the medical community's stance on healthcare AI had evolved, as evidenced by a 2019 American Medical Association (AMA) article on Abràmoff, titled *This Ophthalmologist is Doing Health Care AI the Right Way.*

Abràmoff began working with regulators in 2010 to develop a process by which to introduce autonomous AI in healthcare. During that time, with his coworkers he developed "metrics for ethics" as a concept, as well as an ethical framework for healthcare AI, which led to an ongoing series of papers published through the Foundational Principles of Algorithmic Interpretation workgroup.

After working with the FDA for over 8 years under this framework, *de novo* clearance was granted to the autonomous AI product, IDx-DR (now LumineticsCore) on April 18, 2018, created by the company Abràmoff founded in 2010, Digital Diagnostics (formerly IDx) of Coralville Iowa. That marked the first time that an autonomous diagnostic platform was cleared by the FDA in any field of medicine, so that patients could legally be diagnosed by a computer rather than by a human. Abràmoff credits this achievement as well the subsequent national reimbursement, coding, and quality measurement, as well as widespread support by all healthcare stakeholders, on the ethical framework for AI in healthcare. This work continues in collaboration with both FDA and other US and international regulatory authorities as well as CMS and other payor organizations including publication of an ethically founded AI reimbursement framework.

Abràmoff is a founding member of FDA's Collaborative Community on Ophthalmic Imaging (CCOI), which was formed in 2019. Abràmoff also chairs the Foundational Principles of Ophthalmic Imaging and Algorithmic Interpretation (FPOAI) Workgroup. In 2019, Abràmoff founded the AI Healthcare Coalition and serves as Executive Secretary, focusing on the policy implications of healthcare AI.

## Business career

Abràmoff founded three companies, EyeCheck, a teleretinal diabetic retinopathy screening company in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, and i-Optics, an ophthalmic device company.

In 2010, Abràmoff founded IDx Technologies, Inc., which has since rebranded as Digital Diagnostics of which he is Executive Chairman.

In October 2017, in a Congressional Briefing sponsored by the Science Coalition, Abràmoff joined a panel of companies that spun out of U.S. research universities. The panelists highlighted to lawmakers the value of putting federal funds toward academic research.

In January 2018, the results of a clinical trial for the first autonomous AI in primary care were submitted to FDA, exceeding its pre-specified superiority endpoints for diagnostic accuracy. FDA assigned the LumineticsCore (then IDx-DR) system breakthrough device status for expedited review. In April 2018 FDA granted De Novo authorization to market this product in the US.

Abràmoff has been called a "Renaissance Man" by *Retina Physician* for creating a simple and more efficient process of autonomous AI for the retina that is in the best interest of the patient.

In 2018, Abràmoff testified for the Federal Trade Commission on AI Predictive Analytics Through Real World Applications.

## Personal life

Abràmoff served as an interviewer for Spielberg's Shoah Visual History Project.

## Awards and honours

* 2019 Fellow, Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE)

# Metropolitan Railway electric locomotives

**Metropolitan Railway electric locomotives** were used on London's Metropolitan Railway with conventional carriage stock. On the outer suburban routes an electric locomotive was used at the Baker Street end that was exchanged for a steam locomotive en route (latterly at Rickmansworth).

The first ten had a central cab and were known as camel-backs, and these entered service in 1906. A year later another ten units with a box design and a driving position at each end arrived. These were replaced by more powerful units in the early 1920s.

The locomotives were withdrawn from passenger service in 1962 after electrification reached Amersham and the A Stock electric multiple units entered service. One locomotive, No. 5 *John Hampden*, is preserved as a static display at London Transport Museum, and another, No. 12 *Sarah Siddons*, has been used for heritage events.

## Westinghouse

The Metropolitan Railway ordered electric locomotives from British Westinghouse and made by Metropolitan Amalgamated. The first ten were built with Westinghouse electrical control equipment and entered service in 1906. These 'camel-back' bogie locomotives featured a central cab, weighed 50 tons, were 35 feet 9 inches (10.90 m) long over the buffers and had four 215 hp (160 kW) traction motors. Initially there was only one position for the driver which proved troublesome, and a second master controller was soon added.

## British Thompson Houston

The second ten, also constructed by Metropolitan Amalgamated, were built to a box car design with British Thompson Houston control equipment. These locomotives weighed 47 tons, and were 33 feet 6 inches (10.21 m) long over buffers and entered service in 1907. The control equipment was replaced with the Westinghouse type in 1919.

## Metropolitan-Vickers

In the early 1920s, the Metropolitan placed an order with Metropolitan-Vickers of Barrow-in-Furness for rebuilding the twenty electric locomotives. When work started on the first locomotive, it was found to be impractical and uneconomical and the order was changed to building completely new locomotives using some equipment recovered from the originals. The new locomotives were built in 1922-1923 and weighing 61½ tons, they had four 300 hp (220 kW) motors, giving a one-hour rating of 1,200 hp (890 kW) and a top speed of 65 mph (105 km/h).

In 1925, no. 15 was exhibited on the Metropolitan Railway's stand at the British Empire Exhibition; the panelling was removed from one side, so that the equipment inside could be viewed. The locomotives were all named, the first nameplates being fitted on 18 March 1927. Nineteen of the names chosen were of people, real or fictitious, who had a connection with the area served by the Metropolitan; the exception was no. 15, the exhibition locomotive of 1925, which became *Wembley 1924*. Nameplates were removed during World War II.

In 1953 the fifteen remaining locomotives were overhauled and the traction control equipment replaced by BTH equipment from District line cars. Nameplates were refitted.

After electrification to Amersham was completed in 1961, the locomotives were withdrawn from passenger service although three were kept as shunters.

One locomotive, No. 5 *John Hampden*, is preserved as a static display at London Transport Museum and another, No. 12 *Sarah Siddons*, has been used for heritage events, most recently in January 2019 running in conjunction with Metropolitan Railway Locomotive No. 1 on steam excursions to mark the 150th anniversary of the opening of the District Railway.

# Michael Begg

**Michael Begg** (born 8 June 1966) is a Scottish composer, sound artist, and musician.

## Early life

Michael Begg was born in Edinburgh, Scotland, and was raised in the suburb of Currie. He attended Currie High School from 1978 to 1983 before enrolling in Chelsea College of Arts in London in 1984.

Begg returned to Scotland in 1989 because of debt. In Edinburgh, he became involved in theatre production as co-artistic director of Cerberus Theatre Company, and taught creative writing, music and theatre skills to various mental health groups.

## Music career

In 2000, making use of new affordable computer technologies, he began to experiment in computer mediated composition. Along with long time collaborator Deryk Thomas, he produced a series of recordings intended for use in theatre which became the first Human Greed album, *Consolation*.

*Consolation* was released in 2001 on Steven Severin's short lived RE: Records label. The name Human Greed arose from the title of a play for which Begg intended the music to inhabit.

Begg and Thomas have to date released four further albums under the group name Human Greed. Their most recent album, *World Fair*, was warmly received in 2014, making the end of year "best-of" lists, including the influential USA based *Brainwashed* list.

He began contributing to Clodagh Simonds' Fovea Hex project in 2007 with an appearance on the track "Long Distance" on the EP *Allure*, the third part of the *Neither Speak Nor Remain Silent* trilogy. He has since appeared on every subsequent Fovea Hex recording, and is a core member of the performing iteration of the ensemble.

In 2009, Begg was commissioned by Edinburgh City Council and Unique Events to produce a soundscape work to be performed in the city's St. Giles' Cathedral. This was undertaken as a collaboration with Colin Potter. The resulting work, *Fragile Pitches*, was described by the *Glasgow Herald* as "In turns eerie, contemplative and majestically other-worldly… magnificently put the avant-garde into a populist arena without ever labouring the point."

Begg has released a number of recordings in his own name, working more progressively towards a territory comprising site specific thematic work, contemporary classical music, and studio experimenting.

In 2016, he was commissioned by Public Art promoters Artichoke to provide music for the BBC broadcast of London 1666. The programme documented the floating and subsequent burning of sculptor David Best's floating model of the city of London on the river Thames.

In 2017, he was commissioned by Glasgow Cryptic to compose a new electronic work for Sonica 2017. The work was situated in the wheelhouse of the Titan Clydebank. The work received praise from the national press and earned Begg a New Music Scotland Award 2018.

In 2018, Begg formed and became artistic director for the Black Glass Ensemble, a combination of chamber players and electronic experimentalists. He continues to provide composition and sound design for Moscow based blackSKYwhite theatre company, and writes about music for publications including *The Quietus*, *Sound on Sound*, *Audio Media International*, and *Total Theatre*.

## Personal life

Begg lives in East Lothian with his wife and two sons.

# Meyer Guggenheim

**Meyer Guggenheim** (/ˈɡʊɡənhm/ *GOOG-in-hime*, German: \[ˈmaɪər ˈɡʊɡn̩haɪm\]; February 1, 1828 – March 15, 1905) was the patriarch of what became known as the Guggenheim family in the United States, which became one of the world's wealthiest families during the 19th century, and remained so during the 20th.

## Early life

Guggenheim was born in Lengnau, Aargau, Switzerland, on February 1, 1828. He was the son of Simon Meyer Guggenheim and Schafeli (née Levinger) Guggenheim and was of Ashkenazi Jewish ancestry.

## Career

After emigrating from Switzerland in 1847 to the United States, he launched a new life in the importing business. He ultimately made his fortune (one of the largest of the 19th century) through business ventures in mining and smelting, mostly in the United States.

After investing in silver mines in the Leadville mining district of Colorado, he expanded into ore smelting in Colorado. He built a number of smelters across the United States and in northern Mexico. As his several sons grew up, they assumed leading roles in the family mining and smelting business.

## Personal life

Guggenheim met Barbara Weil (1834–1900), the daughter of his new stepmother, and married her four years later around 1852. Together, they were the parents of ten surviving children.

Five of their seven sons were active in the family businesses, including:

After his wife's death in 1900, Guggenheim and his sons provided $200,000 to Mount Sinai Hospital for the construction of a hospital in her honor. Guggenheim died on March 15, 1905, in Palm Beach, Florida. He was interred at the Salem Fields Cemetery in Brooklyn, New York.

### Descendants

Through his son Benjamin, Guggenheim was a grandfather of art collector and socialite Peggy Guggenheim.

# Way to Go (interactive)

***Way to Go*** (French: ***Jusqu'ici***) is a 2015 Canada/France interactive film and virtual reality web-based experience created by the Montreal digital studio AATOAA (Vincent Morisset, Philippe Lambert, Édouard Lanctôt-Benoit and Caroline Robert) and produced by National Film Board of Canada (Hugues Sweeney) and France Télévisions. The production lets users take a virtual walk in the woods, through a combination of animation and immersive video.

## User experience

In February 2016, *Animation World Network'*s Jennifer Wolfe described the user experience as follows:

> Users pilot a block-headed, hand-drawn avatar through the experience, they can pause to examine the world around them, sometimes triggering a strange tunnel vision effect that shifts the perspective to a first-person POV. During the seemingly endless journey, the world oscillates between black-and-white live action and a colored, lo-res digital mode. Eighty-three custom shaders change lights, grain and visual effects in real time while thousands of sounds are live mixed and synced to user interaction. The music score itself, composed by Philippe Lambert, is generative, responding to the viewer’s pace as they amble (or fly) through the forest.

## Reception

*Way to Go* was unveiled as VR installation at the 2015 Sundance Film Festival’s New Frontier showcase. Awards to date include three 2016 Webby Awards, Webby and People's Voice awards in the Web/NetArt category as well as the Webby Award for Online Film & Video/VR: Gaming, Interactive or Real-Time. On 27 April 2015, it was named Cutting Edge Project of the Week at the Favourite Website Awards.

# Michael Hampe

**Michael Hampe** (3 June 1935 – 18 November 2022) was a German theatre and opera director, general manager (*Intendant*) and actor. He developed from acting and directing plays at German and Swiss theatres including the Bern Theatre, to focus on directing opera and managing opera houses, first at the Mannheim National Theatre, then the Cologne Opera from 1975. He was professor at the Hochschule für Musik und Tanz Köln since 1977. Hampe was influential for both the Salzburg Festival and, after the reunification of Germany, the Dresden Music Festival for which he commissioned and directed world premieres. He directed at international opera houses and festivals, including productions recorded for television, film and DVD.

## Life and career

Born in Heidelberg on 3 June 1935, Hampe was the son of the architect Hermann Hampe and his wife Annemarie née Ebler. His grandfather was the historian Karl Hampe; his great-grandfather was the cultural historian Johannes Scherr. Hampe attended the humanist Gymnasium in Heidelberg. During this time he spent a year in the United States, where he studied chamber music as a cellist at Syracuse University, New York, with Louis Krasner. After graduation, he trained as an actor at the Otto-Falckenberg-Schule in Munich. He also studied dramatics and musicology at the Heidelberg University and in Munich. He studied further in Vienna with Heinz Kindermann, and submitted his doctoral dissertation on the development of stage technology.

Engagements as an actor and stage director in German and Swiss theatres followed. His time at the Bern Theatre between 1963 and 1965 proved key to his development as a director, where he staged works including *Oedipus Rex* by Sophocles, Molière's *The Misanthrope*, Goethe's *Faust I*, Brecht's *Life of Galileo*, Mozart's operas *Idomeneo* and *Die Zauberflöte*, and Heinrich Sutermeister's *Der rote Stiefel*.

From 1972 to 1975, Hampe was general manager and artistic director (*Intendant*) of the Mannheim National Theatre.

In 1975, Hampe was named general manager and artistic director of the Cologne Opera, a position he held for 20 years. During his tenure, the Cologne Opera became one of the leading opera houses in Europe. His productions of works by Richard Wagner and Gioachino Rossini are remembered, as well as his engagement for the operas of Benjamin Britten and Leos Janáček. His 1979 production of Cimarosa's *Il matrimonio segreto* became a worldwide success with performances in London, Paris, Edinburgh, Venice, Stockholm, Washington, Tokyo and Dresden, and was awarded international prizes including the Olivier Award. He returned to Cologne in the 2015/16 season to direct Puccini's *La bohème*, a season later Beethoven's *Fidelio*, and in the 2020/21 season Mozart's *Die Zauberflöte*.

Hampe was on the board of directors of the Salzburg Festival from 1983 until 1990, where he was the stage director for productions, often in collaboration with the scenic designer Mauro Pagano. His productions included the world premiere of Henze's adaptation of Monteverdi's *Il ritorno d'Ulisse in patria* in 1985, *Don Giovanni* conducted by Herbert von Karajan in 1987, Rossini's *La Cenerentola* conducted by Riccardo Chailly in 1988, and *Le nozze di Figaro* conducted by Bernard Haitink in 1991.

Hampe served as a guest director at major opera houses and festivals. For The Royal Opera, London, he directed *Andrea Chénier* (1984), and Rossini's *The Barber of Seville* (1985) and *La Cenerentola* (1990). Other organizations where he directed include La Scala in Milan, as well as in Paris, Munich, Athens, Stockholm, Helsinki, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Washington, Buenos Aires, Santiago de Chile, Sydney and Tokyo, and at festivals in Florence, Pesaro, Ravenna, Drottningholm, Edinburgh and Lucerne Festival. Many of his productions were recorded for television broadcast or made into films. The total number of his productions is more than 260 as of 2020.

After the Reunification of Germany, Hampe assumed the artistic direction of the Dresden Music Festival, which he led to new international recognition, together with Kim Ry Andersen as managing and deputy director. During his tenure from 1993 to 2000, he commissioned works from composers such as Siegfried Matthus (*Farinelli*, 1998) and Wilfried Maria Danner (*Die Sündflut*, 2002), directing their world premieres. His 2000 production of Handel's *Serse* at the Semperoper was recorded for the internet.

### Teaching

Hampe was professor at the Hochschule für Musik und Tanz Köln since 1977. He also taught at numerous universities and academies in Germany and abroad, including Yale University and the University of Southern California (USC), as well as Europäische Akademie für Musik und Darstellende Kunst Palazzo Ricci, Montepulciano. Hampe was honorary board member of the European Music Theater Academy (EMA) in Vienna.

### Theatre construction consultant

Hampe was in demand as a theatre construction expert and was vice president of the German Theatre Technology Society. He consulted for the buildings of the Opéra Bastille in Paris and the New National Theatre Tokyo, as well as renovation and modernisation of older theatres.

### Death

Hampe died in Zürich on 18 November 2022, at the age of 87.

## Awards and distinctions

Hampe was awarded the Commander's Cross of the Order of Merit of the Federal Republic of Germany, the Goldenes Ehrenzeichen des Landes Salzburg and was named Commendatore of the Italian Republic. He was an honorary member of numerous organisations and federations.

title: Michael Denis

text:
# Michael Denis

**Johann Nepomuk Cosmas Michael Denis**, also: *Sined the Bard*, (27 September 1729 – 29 September 1800) was an Austrian Catholic priest and Jesuit, who is best known as a poet, bibliographer, and lepidopterist.

## Life

Denis was born at Schärding, located on the Inn River, then ruled by the Electorate of Bavaria, in 1729, the son of Johann Rudolph Denis, who taught him Latin at an early age. At the age of ten, he was enrolled to be educated by the Jesuits at their college in Passau. After completing his studies in 1747, he entered the novitiate of the Jesuits in Vienna.

In 1749, following this initial formation period, Denis was sent to carry his period of Regency at Jesuit colleges in Graz and Klagenfurt. He was ordained a priest in 1757. Two years later, he was appointed professor at the Theresianum in Vienna, a Jesuit college. After the suppression of the Jesuits in 1773, and the subsequent closing of the college, he remained there to maintain its library until 1784, at which time he was made second custodian of the library of the royal court, and seven years later became its chief librarian.

Denis died in Vienna in 1800.

## Writings

A warm admirer of Klopstock, Denis was one of the leading members of the group of so-called bards; and his original poetry, published under the title *Die Lieder Sineds des Barden* (1772), shows all the extravagances of the bardic movement. He is best remembered as the translator of Ossian (1768–1769; also published together with his own poems in 5 volumes as *Ossians und Sineds Lieder*, 1784).

More important than either Denis' original poetry or his translations were his efforts to familiarise the Austrians with the literature of Northern Germany; his *Sammlung kürzerer Gedichte aus den neuern Dichtern Deutschlandes*, 3 volumes (1762–1766), was in this respect invaluable. He has also left a number of bibliographical compilations, *Grundriss der Bibliographie und Bücherkunde* (1774), *Grundriss der Literaturgeschichte* (1776), *Einleitung in die Bücherkunde* (1777), and *Wiens Buchdruckergeschichte bis 1560* (1782).

*Ossians und Sineds Lieder* have not been reprinted since 1791; but a selection of Denis' poetry, edited by Richard Hamel, is to found in volume 48 (1884) of *Kürschners Deutsche Nationalliteratur*. His *Literarischer Nachlass* was published by Joseph Friedrich Freiherr von Retzer in 1802 (2 volumes), two years after Denis had died in Vienna, aged 71.

## Scientist

In addition to his literary output, working with Ignaz Schiffermüller, Denis formed an early collection of butterflies and moths, and published the first catalogue of the Lepidoptera found around Vienna. His collection was kept at the Hofburg Palace and was destroyed in course of the Revolution of 1848.

# Michael Denneny

**Michael Denneny** (March 2, 1943  April 12 or 15, 2023) was an American editor and author. He was one of the first openly gay editors at a major publishing house.

## Early life

Denneny was born in Providence, Rhode Island, and grew up in Pawtucket nearby. His father Leo was a mill worker and later worked for the Postal Service. His mother Dorothy (née Wilkinson) also worked in a mill. He had two brothers, Johnny who died from cancer in 1986 and his surviving brother, Joey. Joe described Pawtucket as "gloomy" and said that Michael "retreated into books at an early age".

## Education and career

Denneny graduated from the University of Chicago with a bachelor's degree in history in 1967. He then continued with graduate studies at the school's Committee on Social Thought under philosopher Hannah Arendt. On and off, he became the assistant of Arendt and was later an informal assistant of Michel Foucault as well.

Denneny moved to New York City in 1971 after the Stonewall riots and was shortly thereafter hired at Macmillan. There he published a book version of Ntozake Shange’s feminist play *for colored girls who have considered suicide / when the rainbow is enuf*.

In 1976, he and Chuck Ortleb started the gay literary magazine *Christopher Street*. According to Denneny, shortly before it started publishing several top gay men who were not open about their gayness subtly threatened to end his career if his name appeared in the magazine. In 1977, Denneny was fired by Macmillan when it was learned that he was going to publish *The Homosexuals* by Alan Ebert which contained interviews with gay men. He was briefly rehired to present the book at a sales conference because it was subsequently to be published due to legal obligations, but when his connection to Christopher Street became apparent he was fired again.

During this time he worked on the gay publication the *New York Native* in addition to Christopher Street. After applying for a large number of jobs at Manhattan publishers while openly admitting to being gay, in 1977 he was hired at St. Martin's Press, and wrote two books of his own, *Lovers* and *Decent Passions*.

In 1987 Denneny started the LGBT Stonewall Inn Editions paperback imprint at St. Martin’s, the first time a major publishing house had done such, and republished many books that had appeared previously in hard cover.

Denneny worked at St. Martin's until 2002 aside from two years at Crown Publishing Group, and subsequently left to become a freelance editor and consultant.

In 2002, Denneny won the Michele Karlsberg Leadership Award.

## Death

Denneny's death in April 2023 at his home in Manhattan was unexpected, which his brother Joe said was most likely due to a heart attack. He was found on April 15 but the exact day of his death (between the 12th and 15th) is not known.

**Michael Deneef** (1851–1891) was a United States Navy sailor and a recipient of the United States military's highest decoration, the Medal of Honor.

## Biography

Born in 1851 in Massachusetts, Deneef joined the Navy from that state as an apprentice boy. He later served as captain of the top on the USS *Swatara*. On the morning of December 1, 1875, *Swatara* was anchored in a harbor of Pará, Brazil, when the ship's dinghy capsized. A strong tidal current swept the dinghy backwards from the side of the ship, where it had first capsized. One of the dinghy's crew initially grabbed onto the small boat, but then lost his grip and began to sink. Deneef jumped overboard from *Swatara'*s gangway, swam to the drowning man, and dragged him back to the dinghy, where they were later picked up by a cutter. For this action, Deneef was awarded the Medal of Honor a month later, on January 18, 1876.

## Medal of Honor citation

Deneef's official Medal of Honor citation reads:

> On board the U.S.S. *Swatara* at Para, Brazil, 1 December 1875. Displaying gallant conduct, Deneef jumped overboard and rescued one of the crew of that vessel from drowning.
