# Abby Denson

**Abby Denson** is an American cartoonist, writer, and musician, known for her gay young-adult comics series *Tough Love* and her comics travel guides to Tokyo and Japan.

## Personal life

Abby Denson was born in Illinois, but grew up in West Hartford, Connecticut. She received a degree in Cultural Studies from Eugene Lang College and a BFA in Illustration from Parsons School of Design. She lives in Brooklyn, New York City, and is the creator of *City Sweet Tooth*, her online blog that reviews the city's best sweets and treats in comic book form.

## Comics

Abby Denson initially self-published *Tough Love*, a minicomic about two gay teenagers in high school. She sent a copy to *XY Magazine* for review, which serialized it over a number of years, while Denson completed the story. She was the illustrator for the cover of the special *Survival Guide* edition of *XY*. In 2006, the series was reprinted as a graphic novel by Manic D Press. Denson won the 2007 Lulu of the Year Award from the comics organization Friends of Lulu, and was nominated for a Stonewall Award from the American Library Association.

Denson has worked on several newsstand comics, such as *Amazing Spider-Man Family*, *Josie and the Pussycats*, *The Powerpuff Girls*, *Sabrina The Teenage Witch*, and *Kim Possible*. At the same time, she has continued to release her own self-published comics, including *Night Club*, *Jamie Starr Teen Drag Queen*, *Deadsy Cat & Kissy Kitty*, *Cute Boys of the 80's*, and others.

Denson was a contributor to the Friends of Lulu anthology *The Girls' Guide To Guy's Stuff*, Robert Kirby and David Kelly's anthology *The Book of Boy Trouble 2*, and Tim Fish's anthology *Young Bottoms In Love*.

Denson's graphic novel *Dolltopia* was published in 2009 by Green Candy Press. It garnered a silver Moonbeam Children's Book Award and a Bronze Award at the 4th International Manga Awards.

In 2014 and 2018, she published two illustrated travel guides. Her *Cool Japan Guide: Fun in the Land of Manga, Lucky Cats and Ramen* (2014) is summarized as a "...hip and handy travel guide with her expertise as a frequent visitor to Japan and her bright and vibrant illustrations". Then came *Cool Tokyo Guide: Adventures in the City of Kawaii Fashion, Train Sushi and Godzilla* (2018), noted as a practical guide for Japan's metropolis, which despite with its "lighthearted,.. manga-style" targeting teen readership, was deemed sufficiently amenable to use by adults as well and was a 2019 recipient of an IPPY award.

She collaborated with artist Utomaru on the 2021 book *Kitty Sweet Tooth*‘s *Tasteorama* from First Second Books*.* Reviews of this book included "A sugar-sweet burst of sunshine for new readers" and "Denson’s sweet adventure will please movie and dessert lovers alike. Bold line art and vivid colors by Utomaru enhance this candy-coated comedy".

## Music

Denson has been in a number of bands including the all-women band Mz. Pakman, Let's Audio, Abbymatic and, most recently, The Saturday Night Things. She also collaborated with Rodney Alan Greenblat on the album *Let's Audio.*

## Plot

Carol and Gloria, two nurses in the American forces, are held prisoners in a concentration camp set on a Pacific island by the sadistic Nazi Hans von Shlemel and his lady assistants. Joe Murrey, a G.I. attempts to rescue them but is also taken and forced to provide sexual services.

## Critical reception

A reviewer in *Cinema Retro* wrote: "What sets *Prisoner of Paradise* apart from most of the porn drivel of this era is the better-than-average direction coupled with a relatively lavish budget. There are some impressive special effects in the finale and the directors even manage to squeeze in an original love song". Brian Orndorf of Blu-ray.com called the film "an uncomfortable mix of tonal speeds", and criticized it for "trying to pass itself off as reflective cinema when it should be focusing exclusively on salacious encounters."

## Home media

The film was released on DVD and Blu-ray by Vinegar Syndrome.

# Maruti Suzuki Gypsy

The **Maruti Suzuki Gypsy** is a four-wheel-drive vehicle based on the long wheelbase Suzuki Jimny SJ40/410 series. It was being built at the Maruti Suzuki's Gurgaon, India plant since 1985. It was primarily built as an off-road vehicle and all models were built with selectable 4WD. It was extremely popular with Indian Armed Forces and Police & Law enforcement in India. Official production came to an end in 2018 due to tightening emissions and crash standards. However, Maruti has not dismantled the production line and is still producing the Gypsy in batches specifically for the Indian Armed forces. Maruti is also committed to providing spares and service owing to significant number of vehicles still in service with the Armed Forces and Law Enforcement.

## History

Maruti Gypsy was introduced in the Indian market in December 1985 with the 970 cc F10A Suzuki engine and while sales were never very high it became very popular with law enforcement. It was codenamed MG410, which stood for "Maruti Gypsy 4-cylinder 1.0-litre engine". Initially, it was only available as a soft-top; but a bolt on hardtop was later introduced to the public after the aftermarket hardtops became popular. It instantly replaced Premier Padmini as the quintessential Indian rally car due to its performance, reliability, tunability and the go-anywhere capability. The carburetted F10A engine made 45 bhp (34 kW; 46 PS) and was mated to a four-speed gearbox. The 4WD transfer case had two speeds. It had a freewheeling mechanism on the front axles made by Aisin to unlock the front axles from the hub when 4WD is not used; It reduced rolling resistance, thereby improving fuel efficiency. However, many owners of the Gypsy who constantly complained about the poor fuel consumption never knew about this novel feature.

The two major complaints of the vehicle in the civilian market were poor fuel consumption and poor ride quality especially in the rear seats. The suspension was indeed harsh with live axles and leaf springs all around. It features almost no creature comforts, like power-windows and power-assisted steering.

In July 1993, Maruti Suzuki introduced the "widetrack Gypsy" codenamed "MG410W" replacing the MG410. Both front and rear track of the wheels are increased by 90mm (from 1,210 mm (47.6 in) to 1,300 mm (51.2 in) for front wheels and from 1,220 mm (48.0 in) to 1,310 mm (51.6 in) for rear wheels) and these Gypsys are instantly recognizable by the pronounced painted fender flares. This is to mitigate an international allegation that Suzuki SUVs are very susceptible to rollover. Maruti eliminated the Aisin freewheeling hub on this model since it was sparingly used by MG410 owners. In April 1995, a catalytic converter was fitted to the Gypsys sold in the metro cities to comply with newly introduced emission standards.

In June 1996, Maruti Suzuki added the engine from the Esteem. The new engine was the all-aluminium eight-valve G13BA engine displacing 1.3L and made 60 bhp (45 kW; 61 PS). This engine was carburetted unlike the US market G13BA engine. It was mated to a new five-speed gearbox. It was codenamed "MG413W" and called the "Gypsy King". The F10A-engined 4-speed MG410W continued in production as a base model until 2000. The visual differences of the Gypsy King compared to the MG410W are the pronounced bulge on the hood and a completely different grille design with horizontal slats à la the 1.3L Suzuki Jimny/Samurai JA51. Front seats received head restraints and fabric upholstery.

In March 2000, Maruti Suzuki introduced the 16-Valve MPFI G13BB engine and power was increased to 80 bhp (60 kW; 81 PS). The MPFI Gypsy King received a brake booster as well.

The Gypsy was exported to countries like Chile and Kenya. Within Europe, it is most often found in Malta. In contrast to Suzuki Jimny, the Gypsy is available either with four bucket seats or rear bench seats and a sizable trunk. Currently, the Gypsy is available as a "soft top", "hard top" and as an "ambulance car". In India, it is widely used by the police and military forces. In fact, the MG413W model is now the mainstay of the Indian Army. In civilian use, the Gypsy is a popular choice as a low-cost SUV and is a common sight at rally and autocross events.

As quoted by Autocar India, "There is nothing that can touch a Gypsy off the road, except perhaps an Arjun battle tank. The trouble is that everything else does better on the road - the ride from the archaic leaf springs all round is horribly bumpy and the interiors are utilitarian as well. Gypsy in a loaded condition (\>200 kg load) is more comfortable. And available with only two doors, its inconvenient too." The price of a new Maruti Gypsy, if purchased in India, is US$11,250 (6,00,000 INR in 2012). As a 4x4 at this price point, its only Indian competitors are sold by Mahindra Thar and Force Gurkha. As of 2010, the Gypsy is only available against an order with an advance payment and a waiting period of over 3 months. This has led to the creation of a strong market for used Maruti Gypsys.

In addition to the above refurbished Gypsies retrofitted with Nissan or Isuzu diesel engines are also available in some parts of India, although this practice is still limited to unorganised market and there are some issues with RTO registration with retrofitted engines. Production of the Maruti Gypsy for civilians stopped in March 2019. However Gypsy is still in production for defence. Bookings from civilians were taken till December 2018 and were delivered by March 2019.

### New Zealand

In 2013 Suzuki New Zealand introduced the Gypsy King into New Zealand badged as the Suzuki Farm Worker 4x4. Although sold as a Suzuki, with Suzuki script badges on the bonnet and tailgate, the Maruti Suzuki logo badge can clearly be seen in the centre of the radiator grille. The vehicle is powered by the G13BB 1.3-litre 16-valve engine producing 80 bhp (60 kW) at 6000 rpm and 103 N⋅m (76 lb⋅ft) of torque at 4500 rpm, and mated to a five-speed all synchromesh gearbox and a high/low two-wheel-drive/4 wd transfer box. The Farm Worker is available in four slightly differing styles all based on the lwb softtop platform with a maximum payload of 500 kg: two having a rear window and fibreglass bulkhead, and two having canvas roofs with foldable front windscreens. No hardtop versions are available. As its name suggests, the Farm Worker is intended for farm work only and is not able to be road registered, and therefore not able to be driven on public roads, due to the vehicle not meeting current New Zealand crash protection regulations.

Suzuki New Zealand stopped listing the Farm Worker on their website in August 2016.

# Mary Pennyman

**Mary Pennyman** or **Mary Boreham**, née **Bond** or **Heron** (1630–1701) was an English religious polemicist, and the wife of controversial dissident Quaker John Pennyman.

## Life

She was born on 1 May 1630 and was the daughter of Edward Heron, although another source says she was born in 1631 to Nicholas Bond of London.

Mary married the Quaker Henry Boreham (or Boreman). In 1662 she was briefly imprisoned in the aftermath of the uprising of the Fifth Monarchy men. Her husband was imprisoned "for selling religious books", and died in prison the same year, leaving Mary with three children (and pregnant with a fourth). In 1670 she gave up her business (an oil shop in Leadenhall Street, in London) and went to live with two other widows (one of whom may have been Jane Leade) in Tottenham. Whilst there, she disassociated herself from the Quakers and became associated with the mystic ex-Quaker John Pennyman, who had been disowned by George Fox and started holding his own meetings in the 1660s. By 1670 Pennyman, who had initially been married to Mary's sister (either Elizabeth Heron or Dinah Bond), was a widower.

Mary believed that she was prompted by God to move in with Pennyman in 1671. Pennyman hired a hall to feed 250 people and announced their marriage, in a ceremony widely mocked by others. The wedding feast, with 27 venison pasties and a hogshead of red wine, was the exact opposite of that advised by the Quakers and William Penn went into print to point this out. Others like Thomas and Ann Mudd remained close friends and followers.

Many of Mary's letters and writings are included in her husband's publications.

In 1672-3 the pair believed that they were prompted by God to walk through Essex and Hertfordshire. In 1691 they went to live with Pennyman's son-in-law in Bishopsgate, before moving into the country. Mary Pennyman died in 1701 after a long illness.

**Greg Sims** is an American entertainment executive, film producer, and writer, best known for his work in independent film and in giving early opportunities to major talent.

## Biography

One of his earliest works was the critically acclaimed 1987 comedy/horror/spoof *Return to Horror High*, which also served as a vehicle for the young George Clooney, who later acted in what would be his first leading feature film role in the Sims-produced *Red Surf* (1990). Though he produced numerous films following this, he returned to also writing them with *The Fear* in 1995 and *Touch Me* (1997) \*Touch Me provided early starring roles for actors Amanda Peet, Michael Vartan and Peter Facinelli, and was an Official Selection. President's Choice, of the 2017 edition of The Toronto International Film Festival.

At the beginning of 2005, Sims became the co-manager of Anouk, an EMI-Virgin Records recording artist. He was a witness in Phil Spector's murder trial. He also has started the company Vesuvio Entertainment Corporation which is a distribution company involved in the US theatrical, home entertainment (DVD/video) and television markets, as well as all foreign markets, while at the same time creating synergy with the company's endeavors in the music world. The first film produced by Vesuvio Entertainment was the psychological thriller *Behind Your Eyes* in (2011), which won two film festival awards and was released on DVD on Redbox on March 20, 2012. In 2013, Vesuvio Entertainment acquired the international distribution rights for the critically acclaimed Craigslist Joe, executive produced by Zach Galifianakis, a film about a man who travels around the country, dependent entirely on connections he makes through Craigslist. In February 2013, Sims became the manager for Martha Davis and The Motels. The Motels first came to prominence in the '80s with the Top Ten hits "Only The Lonely" and "Suddenly Last Summer."

In 2105, Sims and Vesuvio entered into a distribution agreement for the controversial documentary "An Open Secret," directed by Amy Berg, who was Oscar nominated for "Deliver Us From Evil." Sims in turn partnered with Rocky Mountain Pictures to distribute the film theatrically in the US, though Sims opted to terminate the overall distribution arrangement saying in a Nov 11, 2015 Huffington Post interview *“There were many complex moving parts to this film, most of which predated my involvement, and for several reasons, I made a decision to not expand Vesuvio’s distribution of this film beyond the initial US theatrical co-distribution deal that I had put in place with Rocky Mountain Pictures.”*

In August 2016, The Hollywood Reporter announced that Sims had set up a new management division, Arya Artist Management, and had signed Olympic diving legend Greg Louganis

In 2018, Sims, through Arya Worldwide Entertainment, handled theatrical distribution of the multiple award winning indie film "The Divide," which was the directorial debut of veteran actor Perry King. In 2019, the film won Best Picture for premiere western Cowboys and Indians Magazine's annual C&I Movie Awards, and Best Actor for King.

In January 2019, Sims and Arya signed singer/songwriter Evan Henzi for personal management. Henzi, who appeared on Dr. Oz to discuss his experience as a survivor of sexual abuse, is the co-writer, with Gary Lightbody and Johnny McDaid of Snow Patrol, on "Gareth Emery feat. Evan Henzi, Call to Arms," an electronic track distributed by Armada Music.

# Mr Freedom (fashion)

**Mr Freedom** was a clothing boutique in London which sold fashion by a number of young designers commissioned by the owner, designer Tommy Roberts, and his partner, Trevor Myles. Celebrities such as Freddie Mercury and Elton John wore designs from the shop which was at 430 King's Road in Chelsea, London from 1969–70 and then at 20 Kensington Church Street in Kensington.

## History

Mr Freedom was part of the counter-culture "Swinging London" scene around King's Road in 1960s' London. It followed the cult success of Roberts' earlier boutique, Kleptomania, which he had opened in 1965. Roberts bought the lease to the King's Road boutique, at number 430, in 1969 from Michael Rainey, who had owned another boutique with a cult following at that location, Hung On You. At Myles' suggestion, Roberts named the shop after the 1969 William Klein film *Mr. Freedom*, which was a spoof of the anti-war movement.

Roberts' designs featured styles now considered typical of the era: broad-brimmed hats, close-fitting maxi dresses, silk-screened cartoon character images on jersey tops, and winged shoes. Bright colours were also characteristic of the clothing. Rather than continuing with the homespun hippie style popular among the youth during the 1960s, Roberts veered away from nostalgia. Mr Freedom carried styles that were "brash, pop art fashion", such as satin ties for men, satin jackets, T-shirt dresses with appliqued "satin stars, thunderbolts, and ice-cream cones". A dose of 1950s retro was added to the mix of influences by 1972.

Roberts produced clothes for the boutique in collaboration with a number of other young avant-garde designers, "many of them gathered in from outside the pale of the fashion trade". The shop was described as having an "unquenchable enthusiasm for all things bright and in outrageously bad taste". In 1970, Elton John hired Roberts to design several concert outfits before he set out on an American tour. Roberts designed a "yellow boiler suit" with a piano appliqué on the back, and "white boots with green wings". The shop was known for kitschy design as much as the clothes themselves. An inflatable sex doll was used as a mannequin.

Roberts operated Mr Freedom at the location at 430 King's Road until December 1970. In May 1971, the lease was taken by Myles and became Paradise Garage, selling Americana, with Malcolm McLaren and Vivienne Westwood selling 1950s rock and roll records from a backroom, before McLaren took over the shop in November 1971 and renamed it Let it Rock.

Roberts moved Mr Freedom to a new location, at Kensington Church Street. The store sold Pop art furniture in addition to clothes, by designer Jon Weallans, who designed such items as a chair in the form of a pair of false teeth. Mr Freedom added a small restaurant to its basement in 1971, called Mr Feed'em. The interior design was noted in the media as a fascinating draw for the public: "Stylistically, it defies analysis. It is almost impossible to detect at what point the patient, period reconstructions shade into pastiche". It was noted at that time, that the restaurant was relatively expensive.

Roberts closed the Mr Freedom boutique in 1972. In 1973, he opened the shop City Lights as a high-end tailor, and pursued other design projects during the 1970s. The kitsch and irony apparent in Mr Freedom's fashions had a lasting impact, not only on street fashion but even on Parisian couture designers.

title: Wegger Peak

abstract: Wegger Peak is a peak, 305 m, at the west side of the entrance to Mackellar Inlet, Admiralty Bay, on King George Island in the South Shetland Islands. The name "Le Poing" was given to an elevation hereabout by the French Antarctic Expedition under Charcot in 1908–10. Although Charcot's map shows a single summit, there are four in the vicinity and a question arose over which was named. In 1958 it was suggested by Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey (FIDS) members that the name referred to all four; together they resemble the knuckles of a clenched fist when viewed from the Chabrier Rock area. However, the United Kingdom Antarctic Place-Names Committee (UK-APC) considered the collective name to be unsuitable and it was rejected. New names were recommended by the UK-APC in 1960 for the feature here described and nearby Admiralen Peak. Wegger Peak is named for Ole Wegger (1859–1936), director for 47 years of Framnaes Mekaniske Vaeksted, Norway, shipbuilders who fitted the Admiralen with a slipway for whaling.  This article incorporates public domain material from "Wegger Peak".

# Mikhail Rudy

**Mikhail Rudy** (Russian: Михаил Рудый: born 3 April 1953) is a French pianist, who has won several awards for his recordings including the Grand Prix du disque.

## Life and career

Rudy was born in Tashkent, Uzbekistan where his family had been deported by the Soviet regime. His grandparents were imprisoned in concentration camps. His family moved from Tashkent to Siberia, then to a small village near Voronezh until they were finally "rehabilitated" in Stalino (Donetsk), in eastern Ukraine.

Rudy's interest in music began at the age of 5 when he heard a neighbor play the violin. Despite difficult living conditions, Rudy began music lessons and pursued his studies in music at the Tchaikovsky Conservatory in Moscow under Yakov Flier. He greatly impressed the jury at the Marguerite Long Competition in 1975 through his performance of Beethoven's Hammerklavier Sonata (regarded as among the most challenging solo works in the entire piano repertoire) in which he won the First Prize.

Rudy asked for political asylum and settled down in France in the mid 1970s. He made his debut in Paris on the occasion of Marc Chagall's 90th birthday in 1977, performing Beethoven's Triple Concerto with Mstislav Rostropovitch and Isaac Stern. From then on Rudy's career included performances with such world-famous orchestras as the Berlin Philharmonic and renowned conductors such as Lorin Maazel, Herbert von Karajan and Michael Tilson Thomas.

Rudy made a return tour to Russia in 1989 with the St. Petersburg Philharmonic. He also founded and was artistic director of the Festival de Saint-Riquier in France.

As well as being a concert pianist, Mikhail Rudy has performed with jazz pianist Misha Alperin with whom he devised a program entitled *Double Dream*, performing improvised compositions based on the classical repertoire. This included partly rewritten and partly improvised works by Haydn, Beethoven, Schumann, Chopin, Debussy, Janáček and Scriabin. This program has already been performed in Norway, France and Germany receiving enthusiastic responses from audiences.

Rudy has also taken part in theatrical shows and has written a book, *The Novel of a Pianist,* published in 2008 by Le Rocher. He has also written and performed a theatrical and musical play after Władysław Szpilman's book *The Pianist* along with French actor Robin Renucci. The show ran in Paris in 2005 for more than four months and received great acclaim from both audiences and critics alike. A tour of forty-five cities throughout France followed in 2006.

Rudy is a respected television broadcaster and is active in experimental video-filming and writing. He has prepared several series including a BBC television documentary on the life and works of Tchaikovsky and radio projects for France-Musique highlighting the life and works of composers such as Alexander Scriabin, Johannes Brahms, Karol Szymanowski and Leoš Janáček.

title: Official languages of Puducherry

abstract: The official standing of languages in Puducherry is governed by the 1963 assembly resolution to continue French as official language and the subsequent Pondicherry Official Language Act, 1965 which states under the heading "Official language of the Union territory" that Tamil is the language to be used for all or any official purposes in the Union Territory, while Malayalam and Telugu may be used in Mahé and Yanam respectively. The Act also stipulates that English may be used for any of the official purposes of the Union territory. An official mention in Rajya Sabha Parliamentary debates during 2006 confirmed that the five official languages of Puducherry are Tamil, English, Malayalam, Telugu and French.

# Official languages of Puducherry

The **official standing of languages in Puducherry** is governed by the 1963 assembly resolution to continue French as official language and the subsequent *Pondicherry Official Language Act, 1965* which states under the heading "Official language of the Union territory" that Tamil is the language to be used for all or any official purposes in the Union Territory, while Malayalam and Telugu may be used in Mahé and Yanam respectively. The Act also stipulates that English may be used for any of the official purposes of the Union territory.

An official mention in Rajya Sabha Parliamentary debates during 2006 confirmed that the five official languages of Puducherry are **Tamil**, **English**, **Malayalam**, **Telugu** and **French**.

## 1956 Treaty of Cession

French was the official language of Puducherry under the Treaty of Cession 1956. French was also the official language of the *Établissements français dans l'Inde* (French India) and it remained as de jure official language of Pondicherry U.T by the  ***Article XXVIII* of Traité de Cession** which states that,

* *Le français restera langue officielle des Établissements aussi longtemps que les répresentants élus de la population n'auront pas pris une décision différente*
\- The French language shall remain the official language of the Establishments so long as the elected representatives of the people shall not decide otherwise).

While the Official Gazette of Puducherry has a trilingual heading (in English, Tamil and French), it is published exclusively in English.

## 1963 Resolution by Representative Assembly

The de jure transfer of French establishments in India was on 16 August 1962. Then Second Pondicherry Representative Assembly had passed resolution by vote in May 1963 to express its desire to continue the official status of the French language. However, the same resolution expressed its want of the maternal languages spoken in the union territory to be considered along with Hindi and English as associative languages to French for all official and practical purposes.

## Union Territories Act, 1963

For laying down the rules and regulations related to the union territories of India the act was passed in 1963. This act once again reconfirmed the assembly resolution that French shall continue to be used as an official language in Puduchuerry unless its legislative assembly does not decide otherwise.

## Pondicherry Official Language Act, 1965

Considering the 1963 assembly resolution and 1963 act, the new additional official languages were recognized by The Pondicherry Official Language Act, 1965 (Act No. 3 of 1965). This act established that "*the Tamil language shall \[...\] be the language to be used for all or any of the official purposes of the Union Territory*. It states that *Provided that the Administrator may by like Notification, direct that in the case of Mahe area, the Malayalam language, and in the case of Yanam area, the Telugu language may be used for such official purposes and subject to such conditions as may be specified in such notification*". Finally, it states that "*Notwithstanding anything contained in section 3, and from the commencement of this Act, the English language may be used for all or any of the official purposes of the Union Territory*".

During the early twentieth century, Tamil gained equal status alongside the existing French language. After the merger with India, Telugu and Malayalam also obtained the same status although with some restrictions. Though the status of each languages varies with respect to each district, when communicating in between districts of different languages, generally English is used for convenience. The three official languages are:

1. Tamil: Language used by the union territory government, especially used when communicating within and between the Tamil majority districts of (Pondicherry and Karaikal) along with issuing official decrees.
2. Telugu: Used when communicating within Telugu district Yanam.
3. Malayalam: Used when communicating within Malayalam district Mahé.

## Demographics

In 2001, the number of people speaking in each official languages was:

* **Tamil**: 220,749 (In the Pondicherry and Karikal Districts)
* **Telugu**: 31,362 (In the Yanam District)
* **Malayalam**: 36,823 (In the Mahe District)

title: Racquet Club of Memphis

abstract: The Racquet Club of Memphis was a private tennis club in Memphis, Tennessee, United States. The club was formed in 1974 as an expansion of the Memphis Athletic Club. An ATP Tour tournament, later called the Regions Morgan Keegan Championships came to the club in 1976 and was given an elevated "500" status in 2008. The increased status brought higher caliber players, a higher prize package and more points to the players. The change took effect in 2009. A 5,000-seat stadium was constructed in 1984. The club features 27 total courts: 11 indoor and 16 outdoor. During its later years, the ATP tournament was joined by a WTA Tour event, the Cellular South Cup. The final tournament played at the club was in 2017. In 2008, Golden Set Holdings LLC and San Jose, California-based Silicon Valley Sports & Entertainment purchased the Racquet Club, the Regions Morgan Keegan Championships and Cellular South Cup from the previous owner, Mac Winker, and renovated.

# Private Schools Athletic Association

Established in 1986, the **Private Schools Athletic Association** (PSAA) is a sports league for independent high schools primarily located in the New York Metropolitan Area.

## Mission

* Develop and foster athletic standards of excellence for boys and girls among its member schools.
* Promote and cultivate the ideas of sportsmanship, good citizenship and moral integrity by means of athletic participation and competition.
* Improve athletic opportunities by promoting uniform standards in the arrangement of interscholastic programs among member schools.
* To foster good, sound athletic programs for boys and girls as an effective part of the educational programs of our schools.
* Represent the member schools of the association with other athletic educational agencies in the determination of policies and programs affecting interscholastic athletics in secondary schools.
* To conduct tournaments and playoffs and provide a forum for discussion among its members.

## P.S.A.A. History

It originally was formed in 1917 to fill a need for a secondary school sports league for the private schools in the New York metropolitan area. Prior to the 1920s, New York City had the longest history with private schools leagues, beginning with the New York Interscholastic Athletic Association formed in 1879. This league went into decline and disappeared in the first decade of the twentieth century, leaving the city without a private league.

During World War I, the private schools felt the need of a league, and got together for a track and field meet in the spring of 1917. Prominent members were Polytechnic Prep (now Poly Prep), Horace Mann, Dwight, and Trinity). New York’s Catholic schools during much of the 1920s did not have much league sponsorship, and also participated in league events, notably DelaSalle, Bishop Loughlin, St. Augustine (defunct), and La Salle Military Academy (defunct); they now participate in the Catholic High School Athletic Association (CHSAA).

The league was reestablished in 1987 with 5 original schools: Our Savior Lutheran High School, Martin Luther High School, McBurney School, Pilgrim Christian, and Suffolk Lutheran High School.

## List of schools

The following independent school sport leagues are also in New York state:

**Martin Paul Whitely** (born 19 October 1959) is a mental health researcher, author and was a Labor member of the Western Australian Legislative Assembly from February 2001 until he retired from state politics in March 2013. During his parliamentary and academic research career Whitely has been a prominent critic of increasing child mental health medication prescribing rates.

## Research

Whilst still in politics Whitely wrote *Speed Up and Sit Still - The Controversies of ADHD Diagnosis and Treatment* (UWA Publishing 2010). Since retiring from politics he completed a PhD (thesis title *ADHD Policy, Practice and Regulatory Capture in Australia 1992–2012*). Subsequently, he has researched Australian mental health policy and practice and pharmaceutical and medical device regulation. His research has primarily focused on the drivers and outcomes of prescription mental health medication use by children, adolescents and young adults for ADHD and depression.

### ADHD research

Whitely led two research projects examining the effect of relative-age within a school classroom on the probability of school-children being medicated for ADHD.

The first, *Influence of birth month of Western Australian children on the probability of being treated for ADHD,* was published in the Medical Journal of Australia in 2017. It found that among West Australian school children aged 6–10 the youngest in class (born in June) were approximately twice as likely to take ADHD medication as their oldest classmates (born the previous July).

The second, *Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder late birthdate effect common in both high and low prescribing international jurisdictions: a systematic review,* published in 2019 examined 22 studies in 13 countries covering 15.4 million children. It found that is the global norm for the youngest students within a school year grade to be diagnosed with and medicated for ADHD than there older classmates.

Whitely also co-authored a paper published in 2020, *Look west for Australian evidence of the relationship between amphetamine‐type stimulant prescribing and meth/amphetamine use*. It reviewed Western Australian (WA) evidence of the relationship between prescribing amphetamine type stimulants for ADHD and the illicit use of amphetamines. It found that the non-medical use of prescription ATS by WA secondary school students is the major component of their illicit amphetamine use. It also reported that since at least 2002 WA adults have been prescribed ATS at a much higher rate than other Australian adults and WA adult illicit amphetamine use rates have consistently been among the highest in Australia.

### Research examining antidepressant use and suicide by young Australians

Whitely led research published in 2020, *Antidepressant Prescribing and Suicide/Self-Harm by Young Australians: Regulatory Warnings, Contradictory Advice, and Long-Term Trends*. It examined the Australian response to the US Food and Drug Administration's (FDA) 2004 black box warnings that antidepressant use was associated with an elevated risk of suicidal thinking and behaviours in people aged under 25.This research found that in the four years following the 2004 FDA warning there was a 31% decrease in antidepressant prescribing and a small fall in the rate of suicide by young Australians. However, from 2009 to 2018 the rates of antidepressant use and suicide by young Australians increased consistently. In 2009 there were 275 suicides by Australians aged under 25 years, in 2018 this number rose to 458.

Whitely, and his co-authors Prof Jon Juriedini and Dr Melissa Raven, concluded “correlation does not prove causation. However, given that the FDA warned that antidepressants were associated with an approximately doubled risk of suicidality relative to placebo, we are not surprised that rising dispensing rates have been accompanied by increasing youth suicide rates”.

## Parliamentary career

Whitely represented the electorate of Roleystone from 2001 to 2005. Following the abolition of Roleystone, he represented the electorate of Bassendean and was the Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister for Agriculture, Food and Forestry from August 2006 until the Carpenter government lost office in September 2008.

### Anti-ADHD child medication parliamentary advocacy

From 1995 until his election to parliament in 2001, Whitely was a secondary school teacher. During this period Western Australian ADHD child prescribing rates rose rapidly. By 2000 they were among the highest in the world and over twice the per-capita rate in of the second highest Australian state (New South Wales).

In his first parliamentary speech (2001) he called for tighter ADHD prescribing controls. In late December 2002 the Western Australian Health Minister Bob Kucera and Whitely jointly announced the abolition of “en bloc authorisation” which allowed “specialists to prescribe stimulants without individual patient authorisation”. In August 2003 the Stimulant Regulatory Scheme began collecting detailed annual reporting of ADHD stimulant in Western Australia. Data from the Stimulant Regulatory Scheme shows after these changes the number of Western Australian children prescribing stimulants fell from 8,859 in 2004 to 5,636 in 2010, despite the state's population increasing by approximately 17%. This approximates to a 46% decrease in per capita ADHD stimulant child prescribing rates over this period.

Beginning in 2011 there was a rebound in child prescribing rates. By 2017, the number of Western Australian children who received at least one prescription of an ADHD stimulant had jumped to 9,587. From 2010 until 2017 the number of children medicated increased by 70% while the state's population increased by only 15%.

Whitely also campaigned to influence national (Australian) ADHD policy. He unsuccessfully sought to prevent non-stimulant ADHD medication Strattera (Atomoxetine Hydrochloride) from being added to the Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme because of its boxed warning for increased risk of suicidality. Strattera was added to the PBS in 2007. Until 17 February 2018 the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) had received 149 reports of adverse events. This included 78 reports of suicidal/homicidal/self-harm ideation or behaviour, with four incomplete suicide attempts (including a 7-year-old girl) and three completed suicides (including a nine-year-old boy). Because adverse event reporting to the TGA by doctors is voluntary the actual number of adverse events associated with Strattera (or any medication) in Australia is unknown.

He also campaigned to prevent the endorsement by the National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC) ADHD national treatment guidelines developed by the Royal Australian College of Physicians (RACP). The guidelines were never endorsed by the NHMRC because of concerns about conflicts of interest among guidelines panel members and the heavy reliance on research led by high-profile ADHD medication proponents with undisclosed significant conflicts of interest, most notably Professor Joseph Biederman.

Whitely's self-described “at times obsessive” campaign against the use of ADHD medications by children has attracted criticism from prominent Australian psychiatrists Professors Florence Levy and Alasdair Vance. However, Whitely has received praise for offering a "proven public health cure...for the false epidemic of ADHD" from prominent American psychiatrist Professor Allen Frances who led the development of the DSMIV on behalf of the American Psychiatric Association.

### Criticism of the diagnosis of Psychosis Risk Disorder

Whitely was also prominent in Australian efforts to prevent the official recognition of ‘Psychosis Risk Disorder’ in the influential American Psychiatric Association's, Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders 5th edition (DSM5) published in 2013. Psychosis Risk Disorder (officially termed Attenuated Psychosis Syndrome) was removed from the draft of the DSM5 after its inclusion lost the support of former prominent advocates including former Australian of the Year, psychiatrist Professor Patrick McGorry.

**Mary Gindhart Herbert Roebling** (July 29, 1905 – October 25, 1994) was an American banker, businesswoman, and philanthropist. She was the first woman to serve as president of a major US bank.

## Biography

Mary Gindhart was born in West Collingswood, New Jersey on July 29, 1905. Mary's parents were Isaac Dare Gindhart Jr. and Mary (Simon) Gindhart, and was the eldest of four children. Mary's father Isaac was the president of the Keystone & Eastern Telephone Company, and her mother was a singer and pianist. She attended public schools in Moorestown and Haddonfield. She married musician Arthur Herbert in her teens (15), in 1920, and had a daughter, Elizabeth, in 1921 . Arthur died in 1922. She then worked in Philadelphia at an investment house while taking night classes in business administration and merchandising at the University of Pennsylvania. Her second husband, was Hugh Graham. They married in 1923. She divorced Graham and married Siegfried Roebling in 1932 (a son of John A. Roebling II. Siegfried died in 1936 and left her Trenton Trust stock. She took his seat on a Trenton Trust Company board. She was elected president of the board on January 21, 1937, and became the first woman to serve as president of a major American commercial bank. She served as either president or chair of the board until 1972 when the bank merged with National State. She then chaired the combined banks until 1984.

Over the years Mary was requested to serve in various public service capacities including Citizen's Advisory Committee on Armed Forces Installations, Atlantic Congress for NATO, White House Congress on Refugee Programs, International Chamber of Commerce's 17th Congress, and Citizens Advisory Council to the Committee on the Status of Women. Through several administrations, Roebling served as a civilian aide to the Secretary of the Army. She was made president of the new Army War College Foundation in 1978. That year she also founded Women's Bank N.A. in Denver, the nation's first chartered bank established by women, and chaired its board until 1983. From 1958 to 1962, she was governor of the American Stock Exchange. She was their first woman governor.

In a 1965 speech, Mrs. Roebling said: "As a woman who for years has competed in the business world, I would be the first to agree that the American woman has almost unbelievable economic power, but American women, like women of all civilized nations, do not use the influence their economic power gives them."

In 1983, Roebling became the first female member of the Union League of Philadelphia.

She died on October 25, 1994, of renal failure at her home in Trenton, NJ.
