**Victor David Akers**, OBE (born 24 August 1946) is an English football manager and former player who was most recently the assistant manager at Boreham Wood. As manager of Arsenal Ladies he became the club's most successful manager of all time winning 35 trophies from 1993 to 2009. In 1997 Akers became Arsenal men's team kit manager, a position he left subsequent to the departure of Arsène Wenger in 2018. During his first season as Arsenal's kit manager he stepped down as manager of the women's team but returned for the 1998–99 season. As a player, he played as a left back.

## Playing career

Born in Islington, London, Akers started his career in the youth set-up with Fulham but did not sign a professional contract with the club. He moved into non-league football with Tonbridge Angels (where his consistency at left-back meant that Malcolm Macdonald was forced to play as a left-footed right back, before converting to striker when he joined Luton Town.), before signing for Bexley United in May 1969. In July 1971 he signed for Cambridge United for £5000, and was part of the side that claimed the club's first promotion season in 1973, from the old Fourth Division. He made 129 league appearances for Cambridge before joining Watford in July 1975 for a fee thought to be either 1000 or £2000. He was an ever-present for the first half of the club's first season back in the Fourth Division after relegation, making 22 league appearances as well as a further 4 in cup competitions. In July 1976 he joined Dartford for free, helping them win the Southern League Cup of 1977. He went on to play for Hayes in 1978, and by October 1980 had joined Slough Town winning a treble of Isthmian League Premier Division, Berks and Bucks Senior Cup and the Isthmian League Cup of 1981. By March 1984 he was playing for Carshalton Athletic where he spent two years at and away from Colston Avenue. Akers then joined Arsenal as the head of the club's community section.

## Managerial career

Akers was appointed head of Arsenal's community section in 1986 and in 1987 founded the Arsenal Ladies team. He managed Arsenal Ladies to every major trophy in English women's football winning the FA Women's Cup ten times, the FA Women's Premier League Cup nine times and the FA Women's Premier League eleven times. Akers, in so doing, attained five League and FA Women's Cup Doubles and four domestic Trebles. Akers also won the UEFA Women's Cup with Arsenal in 2007, being the first English side to do so. He retired in 2009 from the Arsenal Ladies post having won thirty-two major trophies in total.

Akers was appointed Officer of the Order of the British Empire (OBE) in the 2010 New Year Honours for services to sport.

In May 2018, Akers retired as Arsenal's kit manager and was succeeded by his son, Paul.

In February 2019, Akers joined Boreham Wood as Assistant Manager. He left the role in August 2020.

# Wanted for Murder (film)

***Wanted for Murder*** is a 1946 British crime film directed by Lawrence Huntington and starring Eric Portman, Dulcie Gray, Derek Farr, and Roland Culver.

## Plot

Anne Fielding is delayed on the London Underground, making her late for a meeting with her friend Victor James Colebrooke. She meets Jack Williams who is also delayed. The two take an immediate liking to each other. After they emerge from the Underground Jack helps her to locate Victor.

Victor, the grandson of a notorious hangman, is gradually becoming insane and unable to resist the urge to strangle women to death. He is in love with Anne, but he does not know how much longer he can prevent himself from killing her. Inspector Conway investigates Victor's murders and pieces together the evidence that Victor leaves behind.

## Cast

## Music

The score, by the Russian-born émigré composer Mischa Spoliansky, includes extracts from a fake piano concerto, *A Voice in the Night* using the soloist Eric Harrison. It is an example of the so-called "Denham Concerto", a term coined by Steve Race to describe the short romantic pieces, written for piano and orchestra for use in film scores, which became popular in Britain during the 1940s and 1950s, inspired by the success of Richard Addinsell's *Warsaw Concerto*, composed for the film *Dangerous Moonlight* in 1941. Like the *Warsaw Concerto* and Hubert Bath's *Cornish Rhapsody* (from *Love Story*, 1944), *A Voice in the Night* was released commercially.

## Production

The film was based on a play by Terence de Marney and Percy Robinson, which debuted on stage in London in 1937. De Marney played the killer in the original production.

In January 1946 it was announced that 20th Century Fox had signed a deal with Marcel Hellman to make the film, for which Fox put up 50 per cent of the budget.

The screenplay was one of two that Emeric Pressburger wrote for Hellman, the other being for *Men Against Britannia*.

The film was shot at Welwyn Studios and at Star House, 14, The Royal Exchange, Chelsea Embankment, Chelsea, used as the home of Eric Portman's character and his mother (Barbara Everest). There were also scenes filmed at Scotland Yard.

In April 1946 Spyros Skouras signed a three-picture deal with Hellman for 20th Century Fox to distribute three of Hellman's films. The first was to be *Wanted for Murder*, which had been completed. (The other films were *Meet Me at Dawn* and *This Was a Woman*.)

title: Tom Alston

abstract: Thomas Edison Alston was a Major League Baseball first baseman who played for the St. Louis Cardinals from 1954 to 1957, the first African-American to do so. A native of Greensboro, North Carolina, he stood 6'5" (200 cm) and weighed 210 pounds (95 kg). Alston was acquired by St. Louis via a trade with the San Diego Padres of the Pacific Coast League, where he played in 180 games in 1953, on January 26, 1954, after team president Gussie Busch told manager Eddie Stanky to find a black player. Not only did Busch think excluding blacks from baseball was morally wrong, his company Anheuser–Busch, which had bought the team a year earlier to keep them from moving to Milwaukee, sold more beer to African-Americans than any other brewery, leading him to fear the effect of a boycott. However, Busch was somewhat disappointed by Alston. When he reported to the Cardinals, the team learned he was two years older than the Padres had claimed. Busch demanded they return $20,000 the Cardinals had included with the trade to account for two seasons that Busch believed the team could not get from Alston. When he made his Major League debut, he became the first black player in St. Louis Cardinals history. He played in 66 games during his rookie season, batting.246 with 4 home runs and 34 runs batted in. After that, he got into 25 more games over the next three seasons. He spent most of his major league career splitting time between the majors and the Class AAA Omaha Cardinals, where he had a.306 batting average and 21 home runs in 1956. Career totals for 91 games include a.244 batting average (66-for-271), 4 home runs, 36 RBI, 30 runs scored, and an on-base percentage of.311. In his 81 appearances at first base, he handled 680 out of 689 total chances successfully for a fielding percentage of.987, just slightly under the league average during his era. Alston's career was handicapped by neurasthenia and other mental disorders which forced his hospitalization after his playing career was over.

# The Cross (2009 film)

***The Cross*** (also known as ***The Cross: The Arthur Blessitt Story***) is a 2009 documentary film directed by Matthew Crouch, in his directorial debut. The film chronicles Arthur Blessitt's Guinness World Record-setting journey of 38,102 miles of forty years "into every nation and major island group of the world" while carrying a twelve-foot wooden cross.

## Production

Twenty years earlier Crouch had made a documentary about Blessitt. Then, in the summer of 2008, Crouch and Blessitt "ran into each other" on the cusp of Blessitt's final trip to Zanzibar, an island off the coast of the continent of Africa, which gave them the idea to create a brand new documentary that would finish telling the story of Blessitt's journey.

### Box office

*The Cross* opened on March 27, 2009 in 221 theaters, and grossed approximately $300,000. It made $741,557 total.

Most reviews of the film criticized it for not offering a balanced, unbiased insight into both Blessitt's journey or the effects of it on his life and family. As an example, Annie Young Frisbie, writing for *Christianity Today*, wrote:

Because Crouch avoids any deep questioning of Blessitt, and fails to bring in any other voices, *The Cross* lacks structure. While Blessitt is appealing, once the novelty of his walk wears off, there's nothing left for audiences to sink their teeth into.

## Soundtrack

The soundtrack features original songs by Javen and The Katinas that are inspired by the film as well as an original score from first-time composer Matthew R. Long.

title: USS Loeser

abstract: USS Loeser (DE-680) was a Buckley-class destroyer escort of the United States Navy, named in honor of Lieutenant Commander Arthur E. Loeser (1903–1942).

text:
# USS Loeser

**USS *Loeser* (DE-680)** was a *Buckley*-class destroyer escort of the United States Navy, named in honor of Lieutenant Commander Arthur E. Loeser (1903–1942).

## Namesake

Arthur Edward Loeser was born on 17 April 1903 in Rahway, New Jersey. He was appointed to the United States Naval Academy on 15 August 1923; and commissioned ensign on 2 June 1927. After serving from 1927 to 1929 on the aircraft carrier USS *Saratoga*, from 1929 to 1932 on the destroyer USS *Hopkins*, on the cruiser USS *Rochester* in 1932, on the gunboat USS *Asheville* in 1933 and on USS *Chicago* in 1934, Loeser completed two years of postgraduate work at the Naval Academy. Two years on the battleship USS *Mississippi* were followed by two on the USS *Sampson* as engineering officer. From June 1940 to August 1941 he served with Supervisor of Shipbuilding, Bath, Maine.

On 2 September 1941 Lieutenant Commander Loeser reported aboard the light cruiser USS *Atlanta* as engineering officer. He was killed in action on 13 November 1942 when enemy torpedoes crippled *Atlanta* in the Naval Battle of Guadalcanal.

## Construction and commissioning

*Loeser* was laid down on 27 July 1943 by Bethlehem Steel's Fore River Shipyard, Quincy, Massachusetts; launched on 11 September 1943; sponsored by Mrs. Marion Loeser, widow of Lt. Cmdr. Loeser and commissioned on 10 October 1943.

## World War II

Following shakedown off Bermuda the new destroyer escort departed Norfolk, Virginia, on 11 December 1943 for Pearl Harbor en route to escort duty in the South Pacific war zone. Arriving Funafuti, Ellice Islands, on 16 January 1944, *Loeser* departed the 18th, escorting a transport to Guadalcanal. Returning to Funafuti on 27 January, she sailed the next day for Efate, New Hebrides, and arrived 31 January. She steamed north 6 February for gunnery exercises off Espírito Santo, then departed later that month for Guadalcanal and four months of transport-escort duty in the Solomon Islands.

*Loeser* departed Guadalcanal for Espiritu Santo on 28 June en route to Australia, arrived Sydney on 18 July for repairs, and sailed nine days later for Purvis Bay, Florida Islands. After three weeks in drydock, *Loeser* departed for Guam on 21 August escorting *Celeno* (AK-76). *LST-120* joined the convoy off Eniwetok Atoll, Marshall Islands, and they arrived Guam on 5 September. Following five days of antisubmarine patrol off Guam, *Loeser* escorted three submarines back to Eniwetok, then departed 21 September for a roundabout passage via Guadalcanal to Hawaii.

Reaching Pearl Harbor 8 October, the ship underwent extensive engineering alteration during October and early November. Getting underway 6 November, *Loeser* made Guadalcanal the 18th, and arrived Manus Island, Admiralty Islands, 25 November for duty with Amphibious Group 3. She spent December in gunnery exercises off New Guinea, before departing Hollandia on the 30th for the invasion of Lingayen Gulf.

*Loeser* arrived off the Lingayen beachhead 11 January 1945, two days after D-Day, and during the following week escorted inbound transports through the treacherous swept channels leading into Lingayen Gulf. From 18 January to 7 February, the versatile destroyer escort went on the offensive to hunt the ubiquitous Japanese submarines lurking off Lingayen and endangering vital American supply lines. With the liberation of northern Luzon virtually completed, *Loeser* sailed for Subic Bay en route to Leyte and points east, reaching Ulithi, Caroline Islands, on 19 February.

*Loeser* left Ulithi 5 March for the invasion of Iwo Jima. She arrived the 19th, and began nine long days of antisubmarine patrol. She then steamed eastward, touching Eniwetok on 2 April and arriving Pearl Harbor the 13th. During the final months of the Pacific war, the battle-tested destroyer escort remained in Hawaiian waters and contributed her invaluable experience to the already rigorous submarine training program.

*Loeser* departed Hawaii for the west coast on 26 August and arrived San Francisco on 3 September. After overhaul and a five-month tour with the San Diego Underway Training Unit, the ship joined the Atlantic Fleet at New London, Connecticut, 3 April 1946 for continued submarine training duty. She was decommissioned on 28 March 1947 and entered the Atlantic Reserve Fleet at Charleston, South Carolina

## 1951–1968

When communist aggression in Korea required the Navy to strengthen its active fleet, *Loeser* was recommissioned at Charleston 9 March 1951. After refresher training in the Caribbean, she rejoined the Atlantic Fleet at Norfolk. During the next 7+12 years of active service, the destroyer escort served each spring with the Naval Operational Development Station-at Key West, underwent a major overhaul, and made two cruises to Europe. In 1952, the ship departed Norfolk on 25 August, called at Edinburgh, Scotland, and Kristiansand, Norway, then returned home 12 October. During the 1954 European cruise, *Loeser* operated with the battleship *Wisconsin* (BB-64) and visited Dublin, Ireland, and Portsmouth, England.

Designated a Naval Reserve ship for the Little Creek, Virginia, area June 1958, *Loeser* was decommissioned on 1 December 1958 and was placed in an in-service status under Commandant 5th Naval District. With this new concept of Reserve training, *Loeser* maintained a Regular Navy nucleus crew that was augmented by reservists during the monthly weekend cruises or during time of national emergency. This system provided the closest possible coordination and communication between regulars and reservists, preparing the reservists, as no shore-based activity could, to augment the Regular Navy in any situation.

The Selected Reserve Ship Program paid off handsomely when President John F. Kennedy called up the reserves during the 1961 Berlin crisis. Taking up the challenge, *Loeser* recommissioned 2 October 1961, embarked her Reserve crew, and arrived Guantanamo Bay 19 October for refresher training. She departed for Newport, Rhode Island on 24 November but returned to the Caribbean on 12 January 1962 for patrol duty along the eastern coast of Cuba. She remained on station until 24 March 1962; each vessel sighted was checked and identified to guard against any subversive elements in the Caribbean area.

After returning to Newport 28 March, the ship decommissioned 1 August 1962 and became the Naval Reserve ship for the Williamsburg, Virginia, area. *Loeser* shifted home port to the Washington Navy Yard on 20 October 1964, where she served as Naval Reserve ship for the Washington, D.C., area until struck from the Navy List on 23 August 1968.

*Loeser* was sunk as a target, date unknown.

*Loeser* received two battle stars for World War II service.

The Unstrut is a river in Germany and a left tributary of the Saale. The Unstrut originates in northern Thuringia near Dingelstädt and its catchment area is the whole of the Thuringian Basin. It breaks out of the basin through the Thuringian Gate west of Heldrungen and, in its lower reaches, flows through Saxony-Anhalt before emptying into the Saale near Naumburg. The total length of the Unstrut is 192 kilometres (119 mi). Towns along the Unstrut include Mühlhausen, Sömmerda, Bad Frankenhausen, Artern, Roßleben, and Freyburg.
The main tributaries of the Unstrut are the Gera, Wipper, Helme, and Lossa. The countryside around the Saale and Unstrut rivers forms the wine-growing region of Saale-Unstrut. The well-known brand of sparkling wine, Rotkäppchen is produced in the cellars of Freyburg.

# Unstrut

The **Unstrut** (pronounced \[ˈʊnʃtʁuːt\]) is a river in Germany and a left tributary of the Saale.

The Unstrut originates in northern Thuringia near Dingelstädt (west of Kefferhausen in the Eichsfeld area) and its catchment area is the whole of the Thuringian Basin. It breaks out of the basin through the Thuringian Gate west of Heldrungen and, in its lower reaches, flows through Saxony-Anhalt before emptying into the Saale near Naumburg. The total length of the Unstrut is 192 kilometres (119 mi). Towns along the Unstrut include Mühlhausen, Sömmerda, Bad Frankenhausen, Artern, Roßleben, and Freyburg. The main tributaries of the Unstrut are the Gera, Wipper, Helme, and Lossa.

The countryside around the Saale and Unstrut rivers forms the wine-growing region of Saale-Unstrut. The well-known brand of sparkling wine, *Rotkäppchen* ("Little Red Riding Hood") is produced in the cellars of Freyburg.

## Name

Old High German *Strödu* means 'boggy thicket' and *un-* is a prefix to intensify the meaning, and so the Unstrut region was a very swampy area. In 575, the river was attested as the *Onestrudis*, in the 7th century it was referred to as the *Unestrude*, and in 994 as the *Vnstruod*.

## History

In 531, according to the *Decem Libri* of Gregory of Tours, the decisive Battle of the Unstrut River between the Franconians and Thuringians took place along the Unstrut, which resulted in the destruction and annexation of the early medieval Thuringian kingdom by the Frankish empire. In 933 the German king Henry I fought, after a ten-year truce, against a Hungarian army in the Battle of Riade, a place near the Unstrut, but which is now unknown. His victory led to a period of peace, until the Hungarians returned in 955 and were defeated again. One of his favourite places was Memleben on the Unstrut, where a royal residence, a so-called *Pfalz*, *palatium* or *villa regia*, was built. He died there in 936, as did his son, Otto I, in 973. A monastery was built there in the next years, becoming one of the most important in the German realm for a short time. Its ruins may still be seen; the exact location of the *palatium* is not known any more.

Due to its marshy character, the Unstrut was not navigable for ships for a long time. Finally, in the years 1790–94, the river was made navigable on the orders of the Elector of Saxony. It became an important shipping lane for a century; in particular, sandstone and limestone were shipped. From 1889, when the Unstrut Railway (*Unstrutbahn*), was built alongside the river, the significance of the waterway as a transport route was much reduced. Although the Unstrut wine-growing region, with an area of 300 hectares (740 acres), is one of the smallest, it is quite well known.

# Tararu

**Tararu** is a former gold-mining village on the west coast of the Coromandel Peninsula of New Zealand. State Highway 25 runs through it; Te Puru being about 7 km (4.3 mi) to the north, and Thames about 2 km (1.2 mi) to the south.

Tararu has a boat ramp, a 91-dwelling retirement village, a store, 2 motels, a holiday park and is the northern terminus of the Thames Connector bus. The Category 1 former Thames North School opened on 25 January 1878, closed in 1971 and was taken over by Thames Coromandel Council in 1978. It is now Thames Art Gallery.

In the 2013 census, Tararu's population was 525, made up of 210 in meshblock 1048800, 138 (1048900), 48 (1048700), 39 (1049000) and 90 (1049100).

Tararu is connected to the Thames water supply.

## Tararu Stream

The Tararu Stream drains a steep hilly catchment of 15.5 km2 (6.0 sq mi) in the Coromandel Range with regenerating native vegetation and scrub. Most of the village lies on the stream's alluvial fan on the Firth of Thames coast. Tararu suffered severe flooding during the 'weather bomb 2002'. A flood mitigation scheme has since been created, including lengthening of the SH25 bridge in 2008. The 10 km (6.2 mi) Tararu Track climbs up the valley to meet with other walking tracks at Crosbies Hut.

## History

Te Anaputa, just north of Tararu, may have been the place where the Tainui waka first landed. Ngāti Maru owned Tararu until it was sold, amid some controversy, in 1867, after gold had been discovered.

The township was laid out in 1868, when it was renamed London, though the name didn't catch on. In 1869 the track from Thames was improved and a bridleway created to Tapu. From 1871 to 1874 a tramway linked Thames to Tararu and, from 1872, to the wharf, built into deeper water at Tararu Point (Wilson Street) by Robert Graham. A track to Coromandel was started in 1871. A racecourse was built and pleasure gardens were created in what is now Dickson Holiday Park.

From 1874 a decline started, after the wharf and tramway were badly damaged in a severe gale. Much of the ore was hard to process, and poor transport had initially held back development. Tararu transitioned to a residential area for Thames.

### Gold

The Tararu valley was part of the Coromandel goldfield and had 5 batteries, with 141 stampers in about 1870, from Brown Campbell & Co at the mouth of the stream, to Tower of London Gold Mining Co at the top.

Several claims were being explored in Tinkers Gully in 1868. The remnants of the workings can be seen from a walkway through the gully. In 1872 Tinkers Gully was described as a source of kauri timber and the tramway was being extended to it.

# Taman Proklamasi

**Taman Proklamasi** (**Proclamation Park**) is a park complex located in Central Jakarta, Indonesia. The park is located at the former property of Sukarno at what was known as the house at Jalan Pegangsaan Timur 56. The house, now demolished, is where the Proclamation of Indonesian Independence was first read by Sukarno.

## History

Taman Proklamasi complex was located at a plot of land where the former residence of Sukarno at Jalan Pegangsaan Timur 56. President Sukarno declared the independence of Indonesia on August 17, 1945 from the front porch of this house. The house then became known as Gedung Proklamasi (Proclamation Building).

To mark the first anniversary of the declaration of Indonesian independence, a memorial – in the shape of a small obelisk – was built in 1946 by a group of women in Djakarta. This memorial, known as the *Memorial Satu Tahun Republik Indonesia* (One Year Anniversary of Indonesian Republic Memorial), was built at the front lawn of the Proclamation Building. Later the memorial was renamed *Tugu Proklamasi* (Proclamation Monument).

Since then, the youths and students of Indonesia held an annual ceremony to celebrate the Declaration of Indonesian Independence on August 17. Following the full transfer of Indonesian sovereignty in 1950, the Proclamation Park was annually visited by both the President and the Vice President of Indonesia to laid flowers and honor the lost soldiers of the country. The ceremony was also attended by guests from other countries.

Since 1956, the popularity of Taman Proklamasi as ceremonial gathering place began to decline. Despite the advice of the city elders to have the house renovated, in the evening of August 15, 1960, Sukarno ordered the demolition of both the house and the Tugu Proklamasi memorial. According to Sukarno, Tugu Proklamasi was actually Tugu Linggarjati. His statement was not clear, but apparently Sukarno thought that both the house and the monument were not grand enough to be national monuments despite their historical significance. The three fragments of marble from the Tugu Proklamasi was then kept in the house of Jo Masdani as a memorial. The memorial was rebuilt in 1972 under the proposal of governor Ali Sadikin.

On January 1, 1961, President Sukarno inaugurated the construction of Tugu Petir, later also known as the Proclamation Monument.

In 1972, the construction of the modernist Gedung Proklamasi (Proclamation Building) – now the Gedung Perintis Kemerdekaan (Independence Pioneers' Building) – was started. In the same year, the Tugu Proklamasi which was demolished earlier was rebuilt in similar design.

On August 17, 1980, the last monument of the Taman Proklamasi, the grand-sized Monument of the Proclamator Heroes Sukarno-Hatta, was inaugurated by President Suharto.

## Monuments

There are three memorials in the Taman Proklamasi: Memorial Satu Tahun Republik Indonesia, Tugu Petir, and Monumen Pahlawan Proklamator Sukarno-Hatta.

### Memorial Satu Tahun Republik Indonesia

The *Memorial Satu Tahun Republik Indonesia* (Memorial to the First Anniversary of the Republic of Indonesia) was the first monument to be built in Taman Proklamasi. It was inaugurated on August 17, 1946 by Prime Minister Sutan Sjahrir during the Allied occupation. The memorial is in the shape of a small obelisk, with an inscription *"Atas Usaha Wanita Jakarta"* ("with the effort of the women of Jakarta"), a depiction of the manuscript of the Indonesian independence, and a map of Indonesia. Shortly after, the memorial was renamed Tugu Proklamasi.

Tugu Proklamasi was initiated by several women figures of Indonesia, such as Jo Masdani, Mien Wiranatakusumah, Zus Ratulangi (daughter of Sam Ratulangi), Zubaedah, and Ms. Gerung. The sketch of the memorial was done by Kores Siregar, a student from the Bandung Institute of Technology. The construction started in July 1946. On the eve of the inauguration of the memorial in mid-August, the mayor of Jakarta Suwiryo refused to inaugurate the memorial due to a perceived safety issue. During the proposed time of the inauguration, the Allies had occupied Jakarta and there was a concern that they would start a massacre similar with the Amritsar massacre in India.

Despite the perceived concern, the women-initiators of the construction of Tugu Proklamasi decided to contact the prime minister Sutan Sjahrir in the afternoon of August 16, 1946 to lead the inauguration of the memorial. Sutan Sjahrir was willing to lead the inauguration and so he took a flight to Jakarta from Yogyakarta to inaugurate the memorial, which pushed through without incident.

On August 14, 1960, the *Keng Po* newspaper reported that the Angkatan '45 (45 Generation) wanted the Tugu Proklamasi, mentioned as "Tugu Linggarjati", to be destroyed. Following the reports, Sukarno ordered the demolition of Tugu Proklamasi and the Proclamation Building in the evening of August 15, 1960. The circumstances were strange because the Linggadjati Agreement took place on November 10, 1946, whereas the Tugu Proklamasi was inaugurated on August 17, 1946. According to Jo Masdani, at that time the Communist Party of Indonesia had significant power to change the history. After the demolition of the memorial, three slabs of marble from the original monument was given to Jo Masdani as a memorial.

In 1968, the governor of Jakarta Ali Sadikin submitted a proposal to rebuild the original memorial that was demolished by Sukarno in 1960. This proposal was approved and on August 17, 1972, the Proclamation Monument was re-inaugurated at its original location. The inauguration was attended by many public and political figures, among them were the former Vice President Hatta.

### Tugu Petir

*Tugu Petir* or *Tugu Kilat* (Lightning Monument) is in the form of a 17-metre (56 ft) tall pole topped with a lightning symbol. The memorial marks the spot where Sukarno stood while reading the proclamation text. On the base of the monument is a metal inscription *"Disinilah Dibatjakan Proklamasi Kemerdekaan Indonesia pada Tanggal 17 Agustus 1945 djam 10.00 pagi oleh Bung Karno dan Bung Hatta"* ("This is where the Proclamation of Indonesian Independence was narrated on 17 August 1945 at 10 in the morning by Bung Karno and Bung Hatta") The lightning symbolizes the thundering of the Indonesian declaration of independence.

### Monumen Pahlawan Proklamator Sukarno-Hatta

*Monumen Pahlawan Proklamator Sukarno-Hatta* (Monument of the Proclamator Heroes Sukarno-Hatta) depicts two bronze statues of Sukarno and Hatta standing side by side. Each statue weighed 1,200 kilograms (2,600 pounds), and was about 4.6 m (15 ft) and 4.3 m (14 ft) in height. The posture of the figures was taken from the photographic documentation when the proclamation was first read. The figures flank a bronze stone tablet measuring 196 cm × 290 cm (6.43 ft × 9.51 ft), and weighed 600 kg (1,300 lb); the slab depicts the manuscript of the proclamation of Indonesian independence. On the background of the statues were monolithic sculptures numbered 17, with the highest being 8 m (26 ft), with 45 protrusions on the cascade waterfalls, symbolizing the date of August 17, 1945. The monument was inaugurated on August 17, 1980.

# Tamás Darnyi

**Tamás Darnyi** (born 3 June 1967 in Budapest) is a Hungarian retired male swimmer. He is considered by many to be one of the greatest medley swimmers in history. He won four gold medals at two Olympic Games (1988 and 1992) and was unbeaten in the individual medley events from 1985 until his retirement in 1993. He is the first swimmer ever to swim the 200 m medley (long course) in less than 2 minutes.

## Career

Possibly one of the greatest medley swimmers of all time, Tamás Darnyi dominated his speciality between 1985 and 1993. He won the 200/400 m medley double at the 1988 and 1992 Olympics, the 1986 and 1991 World Championships, and the 1985, 1987 and 1989 European Championships. He also won a European title in the 200 m butterfly, and a world bronze in the same event.

A teen talent, Darnyi might have competed at the 1984 Olympics, but both the Eastern European boycott and a personal accident prevented this. He was hit by a snowball in the left eye, which left him blind in one eye. After recovering, he started an unbeaten streak in medley events that lasted from 1985 to 1993. During that period, he bettered the world record in both medley events three times. After his final European title in 1993 (400 medley), he retired and managed a Budapest sports school.

He was named Male World Swimmer of the Year in 1987 and 1991 by *Swimming World magazine*. He was elected Hungarian Sportsman of the Year in 1986, 1987, 1988, 1990 and 1992 for his achievements.

***Tarzan the Fearless*** is a 12 chapter American Pre-Code film serial starring Buster Crabbe in his only appearance as Tarzan. It was also released as a 61-minute feature film which consisted of the first four chapters edited together, and which was intended to be followed on a weekly basis by the last eight chapters in individual episode format, but which was often exhibited instead as a stand-alone feature film. Actress Jacqueline Wells co-starred; she later changed her name to Julie Bishop. The serial was produced by Sol Lesser, written by Basil Dickey, George Plympton and Walter Anthony (based on the character created by Edgar Rice Burroughs), and directed by Robert F. Hill. The film was released in both formats on August 11, 1933.

## Plot

Tarzan is swinging around the trees and enjoying spending time with his chimpanzee friend Cheetah. Suddenly there is a lion below that's about to attack a deer caught in a trap. Tarzan jumps down from the trees with his knife and lands on the lion. The two of them fight while a group of natives watch. Tarzan wins the fight after an intense struggle, destroying the lion. He lets out a massive victory yell and rescues the deer.

Tarzan rescues Dr. Brooks, an elderly scientist, who is held by the followers of Zar, God of the Emerald Fingers, in their lost city. Mary Brooks, his daughter, and Bob Hall have also been searching for him, led by villainous safari guides, Jeff Herbert and Nick Moran.

Tarzan goes in search of Mary and finds her swimming and a Nile crocodile appears and Tarzan dives in to save her, wrestling the monstrous crocodile itself and saving Mary. Tarzan and Mary become interested in each other. Safari guide Jeff is out to kill Tarzan for 10,000 pounds. Soon everyone is captured by the people of Zar and brought before Eltar, their high priest. Bob convinces the high priest to release them by handing over a map. Jeff is killed by Tarzan in a struggle over a gun and Nick is killed by a lion. Mary and her father decide to stay with Tarzan instead of returning to civilization with Bob Hall.

## Cast

## Production

Producer Sol Lesser had acquired the rights to five Tarzan films that Edgar Rice Burroughs had optioned to an independent producer in 1928. That producer went bankrupt and the contract was thought to have lapsed. However, due to the wording of the contract the courts found in Lesser's favour and held that it was still valid. Lesser announced his own Tarzan production a few weeks into the filming of MGM's *Tarzan the Ape Man*. MGM paid Lesser to delay production until their film was released. *Tarzan the Fearless* was the first of Sol Lesser's Tarzan productions. Lesser never made another serial with his options, moving to feature films instead. Burroughs had assured MGM that their contract was exclusive, so the rival production was an embarrassment. However, despite their initial problems, Lesser and Burroughs became friends and later worked out a five-picture deal (at one per year).

The "serial was extremely crude" and "almost devoid of music" as well as suffering from poor sound. A score was later taken from old westerns and "minutes passed" with silent (no sound effects, music or dialogue) stock footage of distant animals. The "Tarzan yell" was the James Pierce version, taken from the radio series. The serial was shot under the working title *Tarzan the Invincible* and was released as *Tarzan the Fearless*.

### Casting

Colored publicity shots from the serial.

Lesser's contract included a clause that Tarzan must be played by "Big Jim" Pierce, Burroughs' son-in-law and the star of *Tarzan and the Golden Lion*. Pierce had married Joan Burroughs on 8 August 1928 and Edgar Rice Burroughs included the clause in the contract as a wedding present. Lesser wanted a more svelte athlete for the part and was appalled at the thought of casting the large, ex-football player Pierce as Tarzan. He insisted that it would make the film a comedy and hurt the character. Burroughs responded that it was Pierce's choice and that nothing seemed to be able to hurt Tarzan as a character. Lesser actually had a comedy script written by Correy Ford with Jane in the masculine role but he was not happy with it. Instead, Lesser tricked Pierce into giving up the role. He offered him $5,000 and a screen test at MGM to step aside, which Pierce naively accepted. The screen test turned out to be a reading of a Shakespearean soliloquy for which he was not suited. Pierce never worked for MGM.

Lesser wanted an athlete like Johnny Weissmuller to play Tarzan. At this time Paramount released *King of the Jungle* with Buster Crabbe as Kaspa the Lion Man (a Tarzanesque character), which brought him to Lesser's attention. Like Weissmuller, Crabbe was also an Olympic swimmer, fitting the producer's requirements. Lesser contracted him "on a loan-out from Paramount." Buster Crabbe had actually been tested for the part of Tarzan with MGM in 1931 but, in his own words, "the test wasn't fair." The studio had taken a quick group test during filming of *That's My Boy* but "didn't give any of us a chance." Crabbe and Weissmuller had been friends for years. However a "rivalry" was heavily publicised, which amused both of them.

Lesser insisted that Crabbe play Tarzan in the same monosyllabic style as Weissmuller. To further increase the connection between the separate productions, Lesser included Cheeta the chimpanzee in the cast. However, to be different from the MGM film, no Jane was written into this serial. Instead, the love interest is Mary Brooks. She is searching for her missing father, Dr Brooks, who has been captured by "worshippers of Zar, god of the Emerald Fingers". This deity is portrayed by the idol from Universal's *The Mummy* (1932). Julie Bishop (billed as Jacqueline Wells) was hired as Mary Brooks. While an experienced actress at the time, she was yet little known.

## Release

### Theatrical

An unusual release strategy was planned by Sol Lesser. The serial was made available in either the traditional twelve-chapter format, or as a feature film to be followed by the serial's final eight chapters. The "feature film", which was 61-minutes long, consisted only of the first four chapters spliced together, so came without any ending to the story; but it was sometimes exhibited as a stand-alone movie, without objection by Lesser's distribution franchise agents. Hence viewers found themselves faced with the villains still on the loose and Tarzan having carried the girl off to his cave, unchaperoned.

An 85-minute true feature film version of the entire serial was also edited by Mascot Pictures, but was only available for exhibition abroad, in countries with limited or no interest in serialized movies. It appeared in the United Kingdom, e.g., also in 1933.

### Home media

The 85-minute feature version became available in the United States via television and, subsequently, 16mm home rental, prints of which eventually found their way to home video in all formats. The serial itself, along with the first-four-chapter feature, is considered lost, although an attempted "reconstruction" - using material in the feature version, recently-found intermittent additional footage from the lost serial, stills, and descriptive inter-titles - became available on DVD in 2016 from the serial fan website "Serial Squadron".

## Critical reception

In 1933, many theaters played the 61-minute feature only without the following chapters. This led to a confusing and unsatisfactory experience and the film received bad reviews as a result. William Tray, writing in London's *The Nation*: "If Mr Burroughs' Tarzan books are not beyond the reach of an eight-year-old mind, the movie versions of them may be said to reduce the age limit by three or four years. In fact, even an intelligent child may find something embarrassing in the manner in which an unfortunate young athlete named Buster Crabbe is required to jump from tree to tree, caress synthetic Hollywood apes, and make hideously inhuman noises."

# Tasmanian Museum and Art Gallery

The **Tasmanian Museum and Art Gallery** (TMAG) is a museum located in Hobart, Tasmania. The museum was established in 1846, by the Royal Society of Tasmania, the oldest Royal Society outside England. The TMAG receives 400,000 visitors annually.

## History

The museum was officially created in 1848, though the collections it housed were much created earlier. It merged a number of disparate collections, including that of the Royal Society of Tasmania. The Mechanics' Institution of Hobart, Van Diemen's Land Agricultural Society and Van Diemen's Land Scientific Society had each attempted to found a museum earlier than this date, the most successful of these being the Mechanics' Institution, but little record remains of what happened to these efforts.

Sir John Eardley-Wilmot, 1st Baronet, during his period was Lt. Governor of Tasmania, did much of the work that led to the modern museum. The museum was noted as first being an established institution in the 1848 minutes of the Royal Society of Tasmania, though Wilmot had done most of the work in 1843 and had attempted to set up a museum in the cottage of the Secretary of the Governor, in what is now the Royal Tasmanian Botanical Gardens. In 1838 the Mechanics' Institution received an agreement from the government for a room to be constructed in the Customs House for use as a museum. Customs House was later requisitioned by the Legislative Council of Tasmania and became Parliament House, Hobart. The Royal Society of Tasmania later founded TMAG in the sub-committee room of the Parliament, possibly the same room.

The museum moved to Harrington St in 1852, where it paid £60 a year in rent for a hall there. In 1853 the governor placed before the Legislative Council a debate on the state granting a plot of land for the building of a permanent museum building. In 1854 the museum attracted over 1000 visitors in a year for the first time. In 1855 the Lady Franklin Museum, founded in 1842 at Acanthe Park (now Lenah Valley), sold its fittings and collection to the Royal Society and these were added to the TMAG. The acquisition was driven by the donation of a large geology collection by Joseph Milligan.

In 1861 after a number of years, funding was acquired from the state government to construct a museum on the corner of Argyle and Macquarie Streets, and the Royal Society hosted an architectural contest. Henry Hunter won and was awarded the contract to design a permanent building for the museum. Henry Young, Governor of Tasmania, laid the cornerstone in that year. The Museum was completed by 1862 and a celebratory art exhibition was hosted by Morton Allport, Henry Hunter and a Captain F. E. Chesney. The art exhibition's objective was to raise money for internal fittings of the building, as the money allocated by the state had only covered construction of the building. In 1884 Alexander Morton, previously Assistant Curator of the Australian Museum, was appointed curator.

In 1885 the museum was passed from the Royal Society of Tasmania to the a board of trustees under the state government, with a yearly endowment of £500. Until this point it was officially named The Royal Society's Museum. The Royal Society granted the Royal Botanical Gardens, Hobart to the state government at the same time, and they became known as the Tasmanian Museum and Botanical Gardens in that year. Adye Douglas, Premier of Tasmania, was elected Chair of the Board and Alexander Morton was reelected curator and secretary with an annual salary of £200.

In 1889 a new wing was opened by R Hamilton to extend the museum. In 1890 Betsey Island, then Franklin Island, was granted to the Trustees of the Museum. Since then the Museum has expanded to occupy all the buildings in the block, including the 1810 Commissariat Store, and the 1902 Customs House facing Davey Street.

In 1952 the boards of the Botanical Gardens and the Museum were split and the museum assumed its modern name. An act of Parliament was passed to make this so.

## Governance

In 1885, TMAG became a Government authority under the control of a board of trustees that also controlled the Royal Tasmanian Botanical Gardens. By statute, it is now controlled by a board of trustees, and is currently part of the Department of State Growth.

### Associated bodies

TMAG has a number of associated bodies. The Foundation of the Tasmanian Museum and Art Gallery serves as the primary fundraising body for the TMAG. The Friends of the Tasmanian Museum and Art Gallery works to encourage community engagement with the museum, along with its youth-focused counterpart TMAGgots. The Royal Society of Tasmania founded the museum, donating much of its collection, and continues to loan a significant number of pieces.

## Other facilities

In addition to the main campus, TMAG includes three external sites: a herbarium, a storage and research facility, and the Moonah Workshop.

### State collection

The museum and art gallery reopened to the public on 15 March 2013, after a four-month closure for redevelopment works.

title: Tango (Negative album)

abstract: Tango is the third studio album from Serbian rock band Negative. The album was released in 2004 after Negative won the festival Beovizija and ended up 4th in the final selection of Serbia and Montenegro's Eurovision Song Contest representative with the song "Zbunjena". Just like the title suggests, the album introduced a "softer", more romantic Negative than on previous two albums. It became very successful both in Serbia and other Yugoslav republics, although criticized for turning to City Records. Video for Tango became one of the most viewed in former Yugoslavia. It is Ivana Peters's favourite album. Videos were shot for the songs "Zbunjena", "Tango" and "Pogled na nebo". Scheduled to be shot were the videos for "Jutro posle dodira" and "Carobni napitak", however, this didn't happen due to the pregnancy of the lead singer, Ivana Peters.

title: Tascam Digital Interface

abstract:
The Tascam Digital Interface (TDIF) is a proprietary format connector defined by TASCAM that is unbalanced and uses a 25-pin D-sub cable to transmit and/or receive up to eight channels of digital audio between compatible devices. Unlike the ADAT lightpipe connection, TDIF uses a bidirectional connection, meaning that only one cable is required to connect the eight ins and outs of one device or another. The Initial specification available to implementers was called TDIF-1 Version 1.0. The first product with this connector was the TASCAM DA-88. That implementation did not include the ability to derive a word clock synchronization between the DA-88 and another TDIF-1 device, so a BNC WORD CLOCK connection was required as well.(cite: DA-88 users manual) Later TASCAM products included the ability to sync to the TDIF-1 connection, although that still excluded the DA-88.. Other manufacturers vary in their completeness of implementation. The signal labelled "word clock" in the TDIF-1 spec is delayed 270 degrees with respect to the word clock visible from the BNC word clock output. This is because the TDIF-1 spec was derived from the digital audio transmitter of the NEC uPD6381 DSP used in the DA-88. The TDIF-1 Version 1.1 specification includes parity and other channel information bits.
TDIF-1 Version 2.0 includes specification for double speed and quad speed rates at reduced channel counts. The TASCAM X-48 supports 96 kHz at full channel count over 6 TDIF-1 connectors, using a post Version 2.0 specification.

## Nez Perce War

During the Nez Perce War in 1877, Chief Joseph's band of Nez Perce traversed the pass on August 22 while evading U.S. Cavalry forces under the command of General Oliver O. Howard. The Nez Perce had just engaged the army in the Idaho Territory at the Battle of Camas Creek. After entering Montana Territory, the Indians moved east up the Madison River into Yellowstone National Park.

title: Taxis of Malaysia

abstract: In Malaysia, taxicabs are also referred to as teksi. There are several taxi operators running within Malaysia. Most taxicabs use their preferred car of choice, the Proton Saga Iswara saloon since the 1990s, and a distinct fleet of cabs are the newer generation of Proton Saga since the 2010s. Before the start of local car production, the Mercedes-Benz 200, Mazda 323/Ford Laser, Toyota Mark II X80 series and the Opel Kadett were used. Most were scrapped and replaced by Protons, but there are still a large number running the roads. Those old models have a "Kereta Sewa" sign on top and use old taxi registration plates. Although most taxicabs run on diesel, a handful of taxicabs run on CNG. There are a number of small taxicab companies and some private individual ones. Cabs are generally in red and white. Larger and reliable taxi companies are required to display they owned colors i.e. Sunlight Radio Cab, Innovasi Timur Orange Taxi Cab and Public Cab.

## Reputation

The reputation of Malaysia's taxi service has been marred by the poor conduct of local taxi drivers, who have been known, among others, refusing usage of taximeters, overcharging and force picking which destinations the customers will travel to, while also driving poorly maintained vehicles. Larger metered taxi companies i.e. Sunlight Radio Cab, RB Premier Taxi Sdn. Bhd., Uptownace (M) Sdn. Bhd., Laluan Emas Sdn. Bhd,. Insan Lemak Sdn. Bhd. and Innovasi Timur Orange Taxi Cab are more likely to charge passengers using meter; although they are still owned and managed by individual taxi drivers. Newer companies such as Swift Limousine & Cab owns and controls their vehicles with ensures all drivers have rigorous background checks. An alternative option is to use secure taxi booking apps like Grab or TaxiMonger. Drivers are certified safe and all will use taxi-meters. The apps also allow customers to contact the assigned driver directly and track their whereabouts on a real time map. In a June 2008 survey conducted by Malaysian expatriate magazine *The Expat* on an estimated 200 foreigners from 30 countries, Malaysia's taxis were found to rank the lowest among the 23 countries in terms of quality, courtesy, availability and expertise. The behavior of taxi drivers has tarnished the image of Malaysia, particularly among foreign tourists, to the point some have begun resorting to paying for upscale taxis that are more expensive but operate with better service.
