"One Two Brown Eyes"
],
[
"Introduction",
"\"'''One Two Brown Eyes'''\" is a song written by Van Morrison, originally recorded by his group Them in 1964.After leaving an Irish showband, Morrison returned to his hometown of Belfast, where he joined up with guitarist Billy Harrison, bassist Alan Henderson and keyboardist Eric Wrixon and formed the band that would eventually become Them.",
"\"One Two Brown Eyes\" most likely originated during jam sessions at the Maritime Hotel where Them had a residency.",
"After featuring it on a demo, Them were signed to Decca Records by Dick Rowe who also produced the studio recording of it on 5 May 1964.Noted for its bossa nova and calypso beats, \"One Two Brown Eyes\" has often been considered \"proto-psychedelic\" by critics, largely owing to Harrison's performance, where he emulated a slide guitar using a thimble.",
"Morrison's vocal performance on the song has been considered \"menacing\", while the lyrical content has been called \"typical\" of his writing.",
"Decca Records released \"One Two Brown Eyes\" as the B-side of \"Don't Start Crying Now\" as Them's debut single on 4 September 1964.Despite being a commercial failure, the song has received praise by critics and is considered an influence on other bands, including the Doors"
],
[
"Background and recording",
"By 1964, Northern Irish singer Van Morrison had been part of the music industry for some time, having toured West Germany with an Irish showband named the International Monarchs, where he'd play harmonica, guitar and saxophone.",
"Following the recording of one single, they dissolved in November 1963 after which Morrison returned to Belfast.",
"After responding to an advert published in the ''Belfast Telegraph'' for musicians to play at a newly opened rhythm and blues club at the Maritime Hotel, Morrison got acquainted with guitarist Billy Harrison, bassist Alan Henderson alongside keyboardist Eric Wrixon; after drummer Millings joined the band, Wrixon was inspired by the name Them, based on the movie of the same name.",
"Their first gig at the Maritime Hotel occurred on 10 April 1964.Writer Clinton Heylin believes that \"One Two Brown Eyes\" largely originated from jam sessions the band held at the Maritime Hotel, though notes that the lyrics may have been written as early as the summer of 1963, when Morrison composed \"Gloria\".",
"In a similar vein to \"Gloria\", Them would often extend performances of \"One Two Brown Eyes\" upwards of 20 minutes.",
"It was during one such performance that Peter Lloyd, owner of a local recording studio took note of the band.",
"In April of that year, Them recorded a demo for Lloyd that included performances of both \"Gloria\" and \"One Two Brown Eyes\"; These recordings caught the attention of Decca Records' A&R man Dick Rowe, who after hearing the tape signed Them to the label.Them's first studio session occurred on 5 May 1964 at Decca Studios in London together with Rowe.",
"At that point, Them consisted of Morrison (vocals, harmonica), Harrison (guitar), Henderson (bass), Millings (drums) and Pat McAuley (keyboards).",
"As the band, particularly Millings and McAuley, were fairly unexperienced in the studio, Rowe brought in session musicians Arthur Greenslade and Bobby Graham to supplement the band on keyboards and drums, respectively.",
"Mervyn Solomon believed that Them did not have any issues with including session musicians on the recording, as \"they were determined to get on\".",
"Turner noted that Millings and Graham played drums simultaneously, rather than having Graham substitute Millings on the instrument entirely.",
"He writes that this is most evident on the stereo mixes of \"One Two Brown Eyes\" and \"Gloria\", where two different drum tracks are evidently heard."
],
[
"Composition",
"As recorded by Them, \"One Two Brown Eyes\" largely surrounds the key of F-sharp minor, a tonality that is never modulated throughout the song's runtime.",
"Multiple authors note the song's sparse instrumentation that largely surrounds the bossa nova beats played by Millings and Graham.",
"Heylin notes that the different drumming styles provide great contrast; Millings uses a simple \"tribal beat\" on his drum track in contrast to Graham, who performs a beat that \"gives the song a calypso aura\".",
"According to critic Richie Unterberger, \"One Two Brown Eyes\" \"starts off with a bossa nova-like drum pattern\" that is soon augmented with \"a descending, circular bass pattern\" that anchors the song and is repeated throughout its entirety.",
"For the recording, Harrison used a thimble to emulate the sound of a slide guitar.",
"His performance on the song which consists of \"ethereal runs\" have led critic Erik Hage to label it \"proto-psychedelic\".Unterberger opined Morrison appears to sound much more \"menacing\" in his vocal delivery during his early career compared to later solo one.",
"He notes that Morrison seemingly seems to \"break into tortured wordless scats\", something that is amplified after the song's instrumental break \"with a yowl suggesting a romantic conquest that's not entirely without undercurrents of struggle\"; something that brings a more serious bid to the lyrics.",
"Lyrically, the song are somewhat typical of Morrison's overall writing, with Unterberger noting them to be a \"sort of half-extemporized, walking-at-night lyrics that have been among his specialties throughout his career\".",
"They tell the story of the narrator stumbling upon a subject with \"two hypnotizing brown eyes\" that has told lies about Morrison; he reprimands them by \"humbling them through cutting them down to his size\".",
"Morrison also warns the subject not to stay out at night, something that has been interpreted as an allusion to infidelity."
],
[
"Release and reception",
"Rowe and other executives at Decca found the session on 5 May 1964 to only have produced uncommercial songs, something that caused the tapes to be shelved indefinitively.",
"However, after contacting their manager Phil Solomon and complaining to him, Solomon \"practically bent Decca to their knees with an ultimatum\" that eventually resulted in a single being compiled from the tape.",
"On 4 September 1964, Decca released \"Don't Start Crying Now\" as Them's debut single in the UK, coupled with \"One Two Brown Eyes\" on the B-side.",
"Them were reportedly dismissive of this first release, feeling that the single had been wrongly produced and that an original composition should have appeared on the A-side.",
"Although the single was a big commercial success in Northern Ireland and \"quickly became one of the bestselling singles in Belfast record shops\", it failed to recreate the same success in mainland UK which caused the single to fail reaching the UK Singles Chart.",
"The Doors (pictured in 1966) were influenced by the song for their debut single \"Break On Through (To the Other Side)\".",
"\"One Two Brown Eyes\" became the first composition by Morrison to be publicly released, \"spawning a career that has lasted well over 40 years and over a 1000 songs written\".",
"Although failing to chart upon initial release in 1964, Decca included it on Them's eponymous EP which was released on 19 February 1965 and reached number 5 on the ''Record Retailer'' chart.",
"In the US, \"One Two Brown Eyes\" was first released in October 1964 through Parrot Records when it was once again issued as the B-side of \"Don't Start Crying Now\".",
"It was later issued as part of Them's US debut album ''Here Comes the Night'' during the summer of 1965.",
"\"One Two Brown Eyes\" has also appeared on most compilation albums released by Them, including ''The Story of Them Featuring Van Morrison'' (1997) and the boxset ''The Complete Them 1964–1967'' (2015).Although considered to be \"obscurely buried\" as a B-side, \"One Two Brown Eyes\" has gone on to receive critical acclaim and influenced other artists; Turner states that the song and it's \"psychedelic-esque sound\" was probably miles ahead of what other artists were recording in 1964.Heylin believes that the song should've made people shown interest in Morrison's songwriting as \"early as 1964\", owing to the \"strangeness of it\".",
"Richie Unterberger instead suggests that it was an influence on the Doors, particularly their 1966 debut single \"Break On Through (To the Other Side)\".",
"Both of the song have a similar structure, particularly concerning the \"bossa nova drum beats\" and bass patterns that \"come on at roughly the same time in both songs\"."

"According to the ''Middle East Monitor'', since their arrests they have allegedly been tortured, forced to sign confessions, put in solitary confinement, and not provided with any communication or right to a lawyer."

"Croatian historiography"
],
[
"Introduction",
"'''Croatian historiography''' refers to the methodology of history studies developed and applied by Croatian historians."
],
[
"Origins and development up to the early 20th century",
"Franjo Rački was the main figure in the development of modern Croatian historiography.Fifteenth and sixteenth century South Slavic humanists intellectuals, particularly those near the Adriatic coast, helped establish and cultivate a Croatian past through their writings, although few of them engaged in scholarly historical writing.",
"In 1532, Vinko Pribojević wrote ''De origine successibusque Slavorum'' (''On the Origin and Events of the Slavs''), which, despite its inaccuracies and occasional fabrications, was the first source-based survey of the history of Dalmatia from early to modern times.",
"The first modern Croatian historical work based on critical scholarly research was written by Johannes Lucius () in 1666 and entitled ''De regno Dalmatiae et Croatiae'' (''On the realm of Dalmatia and Croatia'').",
"Lučić is the first Croatian historian to critically approach and use sources, documents and chronicles, inscriptions and testaments and is sometimes referred to as the \"father of Croatian historiography\".In the sixteenth century, history as a science emerged in Croatian politics.",
"In the first half of the nineteenth century, it was used as the basis for a national revival.",
"During this period, few Croatian historians disengaged from romanticism and patriotism.",
"Infused with politics, this older historiography formed hypotheses which have since been rejected or drastically amended by newer historiography.In the nineteenth century, politicians used history to advance their views.",
"For example, the Anti-Habsburg politician and writer Ante Starčević portrayed men who were generally considered Croatian national heroes such as Nikola IV Zrinski and Josip Jelačić as symbols of submission to Austrian rule, while propagating Petar Zrinski and Fran Krsto Frankopan, who were executed by Vienna for conspiracy to overthrow the Kingdom.",
"Conversely, the Roman Catholic priest Josip Juraj Strossmayer advanced the idea of Orthodox-Catholic and Yugoslav unification in the second half of the nineteenth century, using the missionary brothers Cyril and Methodius as his basis.Modern Croatian historiography has its roots in the second half of the 19th century, coinciding with the rise of nationalism in Europe.",
"The main figure in the development of modern Croatian historiography was Franjo Rački, an associate of Strossmayer, who published a collection of medieval sources.",
"His primary source collection ''Documenta historiae Chroaticae periodum antiquam illustrantia'' developed a structure for the chronicle of early Croatian history, as part of a larger narrative tracing the joint history of South Slavs.",
"Rački had a profound impact in the future historiography of early medieval Croats as he provided an ideologically consistent historical narrative for the South Slavic peoples.Tadija Smičiklas published the first work on Croatian history in two volumes (1879–1882), which along with his other works, laid the foundation for Croatian scholarly historiography as well as contributing to the strengthening of the idea of continuity of Croatian statehood and independence.",
"Later, Ferdo Šišić published a three-volume set ''Hrvatska povijest'' (''History of Croatia'') from 1906 to 1913.Šišić incorporated Rački's ideas in ''History of the Croats in the Age of Croat rulers'' (1925) which provided the groundwork for subsequent historiography and became \"reified scholarly knowledge for generations to come\".During the establishment of the first Yugoslavia in 1918, some Croatian-centric historians expressed their opposition with unification with Serbia, saying it was contradictory to the thousand year development of a self-reliant Croatian state.",
"Yugoslav historians argued the unification as a natural path for Serbs and Croats, pointing to historical examples of association."
],
[
"During the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (1945-1990)",
"Historiography in the initial post-war period in the communist-led Yugoslavia was driven by socialist ideology and Marxist interpretations.",
"The extent of the new government's reach however only extended to the period of the mid-nineteenth century and beyond.",
"Historians were expected to abide by these constraints when dealing with the history of the labour movement, communism and World War Two.",
"However, the research and methodology of medieval, early modern and parts of the nineteenth century history were largely uninfluenced.A major component of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia's foundation laid in the concept of the anti-fascist struggle and \"brotherhood and unity\".",
"Accordingly, no particular Yugoslav group was assigned guilt for mass murder and collaboration during World War II and each Yugoslav republic shared equal responsibility.",
"These narratives shifted during the 1960s as Yugoslav historiography transitioned into debates between Serbian and Croatian historians regarding each respective ethnic group's role in the war.",
"Starting in this period, Croatian historiography was marked by two emerging and conflicting trends.",
"On one hand, serious and distinguished historians, including medievalists, who were oriented with Western approaches to historiography and on the other, nationalist historians of the contemporary period who squabbled with their Serbian counterparts.The growing nationalist sphere was represented by historian and future Croatian President Franjo Tudjman and became supreme following Croatia's independence in 1991.Tudjman had challenged the inflated casualties of the Jasenovac concentration camp which had been claimed to be 700,000 by Serbian historians, though he wound up providing figures that were too low.",
"He emphasized the Serbian Chetniks' collaboration with the Axis while leaving out the Ustaše, stressed the role of Croatian Partisans while diminishing the role of Serbian Partisans, and defended the Domobrani claiming they had been forced to fight the Partisans.",
"Nonetheless, history textbooks during the 1960s still reflected the unitary Yugoslav perspective, though with the process of federalization in the 1970s their content became more diverse.In the 1950s and 1960s contacts with international scholars were opened, allowing for different tools in the exploration of history.",
"In the 1970s, historian Mirjana Gross spread the Annales school methodology and popularized an approach that combined \"non-dogmatic Marxism and Braudelian understanding of time and structure\".",
"Additionally, research into social history, history of mentalities and microhistory began to grow, especially among medieval and early modern historians who had previously focused merely on political history.",
"During the 1980s, research into social history was expanded and supplemented by cultural history, influenced by the Bielefeld School approach of German social historians such as Hans-Ulrich Wehler, Lothar Gall and Jürgen Kocka.",
"Women's history was mostly expressed in the works of Lydia Sklevicky, who was well acquainted with Western feminist literature, but was especially inspired by the work of Natalie Zemon Davis."
],
[
"Post-communist Croatian historiography (1990s)",
"The rule of Tudjman and his Croatian Democratic Union in the 1990s ushered in an era of historical revisionism with a great deal of professional Croatian historians participating in its formulation.",
"Media came under Tudjman and the HDZ's control, and the few independent newspapers and weekly magazines were repressed and marginalized.",
"At the University of Zagreb, a new Faculty of Croatian Studies was created and within it, a rival Department of History to counter the Faculty of Philosophy and Faculty of Political Science which tried to distance themselves from nationalist revisions of history.",
"Historians were expected to be the promoters of the new national awareness and statehood amidst a societal climate of national enthusiasm and euphoria.",
"Historiography was tasked with demonstrating how the Croatian nation and statehood was firmly and deeply rooted in the past.While a minority of Croatian historians succumbed to the national euphoria, most of them remained professional and were instead largely affected through the fact the research work was largely focused on national history.Research focused on the nation state as the primary unit of scholarly analysis, resulting in studies being written from a Croatian centered perspective and an absence of studies on regional, European, or global history.",
"Studies conducted in the 1990s focused on \"grand narratives\" of Croatian history relating to national and state identity, such as the ethnogenesis of the Croats, the formation of Croatian territory and borders over time, the role of the Catholic Church or the publication of core sources of Croatian history.",
"Old myths and stereotypes reappeared in some historians' work, like the \"thousand-year-old continuity of Croatian statehood\" or Croatia as \"Antemurale Christianitatis\" during the Ottoman conquest.",
"Negative stereotypes about other nations were prevalent, most obvious and harmful in school books.The official political discourse was strongly centralist.",
"Slavonia was referred to as \"Eastern Croatia\", and Dalmatia as \"Southern Croatia\", with a misunderstanding and disparagement of Istrian regional specificity.",
"Croatism was often combined with attempts to identify Croatia and Catholicism and to assimilate Bosnia and Herzegovina as Croatian.",
"After the breakup of Yugoslavia, Balkanophobia was prevalent in an attempt to avoid linking Croatia with a concept that was understood exclusively negatively.",
"The escape from the Balkans was connected with emphasizing Croatia's integration into Western European civilization, and, related to the 19th century, highlighting the Central European dimension.With the Annales school's growing influence, interest in historical anthropology rose as well as the development of demographic methodology.",
"Mirjana Gross published seminal works on social development in the nineteenth century and in 1996 published ''Suvremena historiografija: korijeni, postignuća, traganja'' an influential book on contemporary historiography."
],
[
"21st century",
"With the formation of a new coalition led by the Social Democratic Party of Croatia in 2000, prospects for Croatian historiography began to change.",
"The profession diversified, and became more polycentric, allowing more field studies to take shape.",
"Environmental studies emerged and Memory studies in particular have increased in popularity while historians have increasingly employed interdisciplinary approaches, from historical anthropology, demography, literary theory and imagology.Research into the early modern period and, to a lesser extent, the Middle Ages, has produced more thematic and methodological innovations than research into modern and contemporary history.",
"In 2001, research into the Croatian War of Independence, known in Croatia as the ''Homeland War'', began within the HIP as a result of a government decision.",
"In 2004, the Croatian Institute of History (HIP) established the Croatian Memorial Documentation Centre of the Homeland War.",
"Concerns regarding objectivity and the relationship between historians and politics emerged when the lead investigator of the project was entrusted after two other historians declined due to the \"sensitivity and politicization of the topic\".",
"Legitimate debate between historians advocating for a uniformed narrative and those for critical and alternative perspectives about the war have only arisen in school curriculum and history textbooks however."
],
[
"Themes and positions",
"===19th century===Most of the historiographical production about the 19th century discusses the period from 1848 onward, given that it was the period of the formation of modern Croatian civil society.",
"During the communist era, historiography emphasized the 1848 revolution as a progressive movement that rejected feudalism.",
"After Croatian independence, its national component was also emphasized.",
"Regarding the 19th century, Croatian statehood is emphasized, with Ante Starčević being seen as the founder of the nation due to his consistent support for an independent Croatia.",
"Apart from Starčević, Stjepan Radić is considered one of the most meritorious Croats, along with conservative church dignitaries such as Juraj Haulik, Josip Stadler and Alojzij Stepinac.",
"Radić is considered to be the key bearer of Croatia, to whom numerous works are dedicated that show his political activities and ideology, but also deal with his schooling or his pedagogical views.",
"Although serious works do not deny his adherence first to the Habsburg and then to the Yugoslav state framework, the Croatian component is the foreground.",
"In Croatian historiography, the presentation of non-Croatian peoples is often simplified and even negative.",
"Stereotypes persist about Hungarians as oppressors of Croatia, especially for the post-dualistic period.",
"Research on unionism (a political option for the unconditional union of Hungary and Croatia) and especially its liberal determinants have been neglected, and Károly Khuen-Héderváry is given a rather simplified assessment as the source of all evil for Croatia.===World War One===Historiography on World War I during the Kingdom of Yugoslavia (1918–1941) focused on the creation of the state after the war and its justification.",
"The Austro-Hungarian monarchy was referred to as a \"prison of nations\" and pro-Yugoslav and anti-Habsburg Croats were emphasized with particular attention paid to the Yugoslav Committee.",
"During the socialist era (1945–1990), anti-imperalism was the prevailing narrative and participation of Croats in the Austro-Hungarian army was overlooked.",
"However, works published after 1991 paid significant attention to prominent pro-Habsburg oriented individuals, military commanders in the Austro-Hungarian army and Croatian units, although local and regional micro-histories was the focus.",
"Still, research into the topic has been minimal.",
"In Croatian textbooks, Serbia is blamed for the outbreak of the war.===World War Two===In an attempt to reconciliate former Croatian Partisans and Ustaše members, Tudjman reassessed the legacy of the Ustaše as an embodiment of Croats' desire for statehood and declared the Independent State of Croatia (NDH) an \"expression of the political desires of the Croat nation for its own independent state\".",
"Thus, both the Partisans and Ustaše played a role for the \"Croatian cause\" in their own ways.",
"The former declaration was a main catalyst for the subsequent positive reframing of the NDH that would become prevalent in WWII historiography beginning in the 1990s.",
"Jasenovac was often referred to as a \"labour camp\" where mass murder did not take place.",
"This phenomenon was concurrent with studies that attempted to figure out more precise data on the number of losses in the NDH.The perspectives of post WWII Croat emigres from the new communist government about the Second World War differed from the prevailing narrative of anti-fascism.",
"They adopted several myths of which the central theme was that it was fought by \"Great Serbian ideology\", whether through the Partisans or the Chetniks, against the Croat nation and the NDH.",
"The tactics employed by NDH authorities were therefore presented as legitimate acts of self-defense.",
"Ustaše atrocities were minimized, while conversely the Bleiburg repatriations were identified with Croat suffering and mythologized with claims that hundreds of thousands of civilians had been killed by Josip Broz Tito's forces.",
"During communist rule, Bleiburg was a taboo topic but after Yugoslavia's disintegration, research into it along with human losses during WWII in general became prominent.",
"The political crisis in Yugoslavia that began in 1990-1991 allowed the views of these Croat writers abroad to become transplanted into Croatia and current experiences were aligned with revisionist interpretations of the NDH as a struggle against Greater Serbia.",
"Jasenovac was longer mentioned in Croatian school textbooks, replaced with tales of Bleiburg and the communist death marches.",
"Bleiburg and the crimes committed by Chetniks were extensively described and illustrated with gruesome pictures but atrocities of the NDH regime were hardly mentioned at all.Starting in the early 2000s, partly as a response to the historical revisionism of the 1990s, there has been an increase in research on the Holocaust and Porajmos though significantly less regarding the mass murder of Serbs.",
"New perspectives on the history of the NDH emerged primarily as a result of comparative fascism research conducted by expatriate historians.",
"The Croatian Institute of History (HIP) has formed several projects investigating the number of human losses in Croatia during WWII, focusing on the Yugoslav communist regime's atrocities against NDH soldiers and ethnic Germans following the war.===Croatian War of Independence and Croat-Serb relations===It was only after 1991 and the Croatian War of Independence that Croatian historians became focused on Serbian history.",
"Prior to 1991, communism and Josip Broz Tito was the main preoccupation among the nationalist sector.",
"Croatian-Serbian relations were re-contextualized within the framework of recent developments and Serbian history was represented through the prism of expansion and repression.",
"Croats were portrayed as victims and Serbian nationalism and the concept of Greater Serbia was equaled to genocide, echoing the analyses of Serbian historians who also linked Croatian nationalism in the same manner.",
"The new Croatian historiography portrayed Serbia as a warlike nation whose heads of states were planning to commit genocide against their neighbors as early as the 1840s.",
"Through analyses of 19th century documents and historical events up to the 20th century, Serbs were presented as \"bloody, treacherous, cold, calculating, ruthless, greedy, and expansionist\" and the war was explained as a result of a long continuous pattern of Serbian behavior.",
"The Serbian Orthodox Church is portrayed as a major catalyst for such chauvinism.",
"A scholarly symposium backed by the Catholic Church in Croatia declared Serbs and the Serbian clergy as the instigators of the war, describing it as a genocide against Croats.",
"Studies appeared which argued that Serbs began genocide against Croats during the Bleiburg repatriations under communism, continued with the State Security Service (UDBA) and attempted to end it with the war of 1991–95.Greater Serbia is also a recurring theme in Croatian textbooks, from the 19th century up until the Croatian War of Independence.",
"Some Croatian historians also portrayed Serbian-Croatian antagonism through the Great Schism of 1054 which divided Catholics and Orthodox Christians.",
"Croats were thus presented as Western and more civilized and Serbs as Eastern and inferior, the two peoples being incompatible together.In recent times however, there has also been a noticeable interest in the ideology and political activity of Serbs in Croatia, where the social and cultural context of the history of Serbs in Croatia is increasingly explored.===Yugoslavia===In the 1990s, tendencies appeared to deny or underestimate Yugoslavism, an option that is disastrous for the Croatian nation in all elements and periods.",
"Many works were published about the interwar period, which explained the first Yugoslavia as a form of Serbian domination and persecution of Croats."

"Introduction",
"Parliamentary elections were held in South Ossetia in March 1994.They were the first and only elections to the State Nykhas, the legislature of the partially recognized South Caucasian territory which most of the United Nations recognised as part of Georgia under illegal occupation by Russian forces.",
"The elections were the first since the South Ossetian war from 1991 to 1992."
],
[
"Background",
"South Ossetia in the 1990s has been described by pundits and journalists as a \"land forgotten by time\" clinging to the Soviet Union and the practice of communism despite the wider region abandoning the political system.",
"Since South Ossetia's ''de facto'' independence in 1991 during the South Ossetia War the dominant political party was the Communist Party of South Ossetia which supported a staunch preservation of the Soviet way of life.",
"The other political faction consisted of independent members of the South Ossetian Supreme Soviet who abandoned the Communist Party to focus on domestic issues and Ossetian nationalism.In September 1993 Ludvig Chibirov, a colleague of North Ossetian leader Akhsarbek Galazov, was elected head of state.",
"The initial constitution of South Ossetia did not have a formal head of state position, with the head of state instead being the Chairman of the South Ossetian Supreme Soviet.",
"Chibirov, an independent, changed the name of the Supreme Soviet to the State Nykhas (Council of Elders), with the first elections to the newly renamed body being held in March 1994."
],
[
"Results",
"The elections saw the Communist Party win 19 of the 36 seats with 47.2% of the vote, with the remaining seats being won by independents."

[
"Aftermath",
"Despite Chibirov's independents not securing a majority, he would be re-elected to his Chairmanship and one of his first actions was welcoming the Georgian-Russian peacekeeping force, the Joint Peacekeeping Force (JPKF) to occupy South Ossetia."

"Al-Araqa derby"
],
[
"Introduction",
"The '''Al-Quwa Al-Jawiya SC–Al-Minaa SC rivalry''', sometimes referred to as '''Al-Araqa Derby''', is a high-level competition between the two oldest established clubs in the history of Iraqi football clubs Al-Quwa Al-Jawiya and Al-Minaa (the two teams were founded in 1931).",
"It is considered one of the largest matches in Iraqi football in terms of the number of spectators.",
"Al-Quwa Al-Jawiya is considered among the four biggest clubs in Baghdad, the capital, while Al-Minaa, located in Basra in southern Iraq, is considered one of the biggest and most popular teams in the south, and is the first team that was able to obtain the league title from outside Baghdad.The two teams had previously played against each other in 1950s and 1960s in friendly games before the national club league was established in 1974, and their matches were characterized by excitement.One of the historical precedents for this derby is that the first time a scoreboard was placed for Al-Shaab Stadium on 21 March 1977, was in this derby match, which ended with a score of 2–2 and the first to score in the match was Al-Quwa Al-Jawiya player Saleem Malakh.In the 2004–05 season in Premier League, the teams were divided into groups, and the two teams reached the final match at Al-Shaab Stadium in Baghdad to determine the title, in which Al-Quwa Al-Jawiya won 2-0 to become champions, with Al-Minaa finishing in second place.",
"Consequently, the two teams played in the 2006 AFC Champions League as Iraq's representatives in the tournament."
],
[
"Statistics",
"The first official match between the two clubs was a Premier League match in the 1975–76 season and resulted in a 1–0 victory for Al-Quwa Al-Jawiya, known as Al-Tayaran at the time.",
"The goal was scored by player Hanoon Mashkoor, which was the first goal for Al-Quwa Al-Jawiya against Al-Minaa in the history of the derby, while Ali Abdul Zahra scored the first goal for Al-Minaa against Al-Quwa Al-Jawiya in the second match of the same season, which ended in a 1–1 draw.The player who scored the most was Hammadi Ahmed, who scored 11 goals for Al-Quwa Al-Jawiya against Al-Minaa, while Jalil Hanoon scored the most for Al-Minaa against Al-Quwa Al-Jawiya, as he scored 8 goals.",
"Al-Quwa Al-Jawiya scored 93 goals, while Al-Minaa scored 62 goals.",
"The biggest victory was a 6–0 victory for Al-Quwa Al-Jawiya in the 1998–99 season at Al-Shaab Stadium.",

],
[
"Critical reception",
"Writing in ''The Courier-Mail'' Warwick Lawrence commented: \"Apart from its criminal plot, there is a feel of the loneliness of the outback in this book.",
"Perhaps because of its local colour, murder or no murder, I enjoyed it for this very reason...Mr. Upfield knows his country and its people.",
"His characters are true to type and alive — except for the corpse, for which I must forgive him.\"A.",
"R. McElwain in the Melbourne ''Herald'' was not so taken with the work: \" Mr Upfield presents a pretty straight-forward plot involving the killing, in the first place, of a tramp.",
"He works in neatly, as a valuable clue, one of those symbols swagmen make on gateposts to indicate to other swaggies how the land lies...But the murderer, I suggest, could have been landed in half the time with a little less Bony and a little more bustle by a couple of sound men from the Sydney CIB.\""
],
[
"Notes",
"* With a touch of humour a writer in ''The Daily Telegraph'' (Sydney), on reading this novel, conjectured that \"Bony\" is the natural son of Sherlock Holmes."

"Petroleum Road (Negev)"
],
[
"Introduction",
"The '''Petroleum Road''' or '''Tapline Road''' (Hebrew: כביש הנפט, ''Kvish HaNeft'') is a transverse road that was paved in 1941 by the Iraq Petroleum Company, hence its name.",
"Today the route is marked as '''Route 224''' in the western part connecting the Negev junction to Yeruham, a short section on Route 204 in the middle, and Route 225 in the eastern part, from Yeruham to HaMakhtesh HaGadol.",
"Added to these is a dirt road about two kilometres long inside HaMakhtesh HaGadol."
],
[
"History",
"According to the geological theories, there were good chances of finding a petroleum trap trapped above the groundwater in Hatira Ridge where HaMakhtesh HaGadol resides.",
"The makhtesh itself is a kind of \"natural bore\" that brings the surface of the ground closer to the oil deposits.",
"In the 1940s, the Iraq Petroleum Company began oil exploration in HaMakhtesh HaGadol, and for that purpose, paved the road in 1941 and established a labour camp on Har Avnon on the northern rim of the makhtesh.",
"The searches yielded no findings and were finally stopped.",
"The road leading east to Scorpions Pass was used for years as the only land road to Eilat.In February 1973, a section of Highway 40 was opened from Mashabei Sadeh to Sde Boker, and the crossing on Route 224 on the way to Mitzpe Ramon was made redundant.",
"As a result, the Petroleum road was closed and the traffic to Yeruham passed on the northern section of Route 204.This lengthened the road from Yeruham to Neot Hovav, and harmed the employment opportunities of the town's residents.In November 1980, after much pressure from the leaders of Yeruham, the renovation of Route 224 was started in order to reopen it, but after two years the contractor went out of business after completing two thirds of the road.",
"Following this, the uncompleted road was opened, and the people of Yeruham continued to demand its completion.",
"In April 1986, the government decided to complete the construction of the road.Towards the end of 2008, Route 225 was closed to traffic due to safety deficiencies and because the road has not been maintained for many years, but it was reopened to traffic due to an appeal by the Society for the Protection of Nature in Israel to the Minister of Transportation Israel Katz based on the fact that the road being closed to traffic \"prevents access to one of the most beautiful landscapes in Israel.\"",
"At the same time, the National Roads Company of Israel began allocating road safety improvements."

"Shakespeare and East Asia"
],
[
"Introduction",
"'''''Shakespeare and East Asia''''' is a book by American author and academic Alex Alice Joubin.",
"It was published in 2021 by Oxford University Press and is part of its ''Oxford Shakespeare Topics'' series.",
"The book explores the distinctive features of post-1950s East Asian cinemas and theatres, delineating four key themes: Japanese formalistic innovations, reparative adaptations from China, Taiwan, and Hong Kong, the politics of gender and film reception in South Korea and the UK, and multilingual diaspora works in Singapore and the UK.",
"By merging film and theatre studies, Joubin's comparative analysis unveils profound structural and narratological connections between Asian and Anglophone performances, emphasizing the metacinematic and metatheatrical dimensions of these adaptations that contribute to reshaping debates about the relationship between East Asia and Europe."
],
[
"Summary",
"The book explores the diverse landscape of Asian Shakespeare, spanning Japan, China, Taiwan, Hong Kong, South Korea, and Singapore.",
"In contrast to other works focusing on a single nation or genre, this monograph resists national allegory approaches, opting for rhizomatic readings that emphasize connections and cross-fertilization between Asian and Western Shakespearean works.",
"Joubin challenges the pitfalls of \"national profiling\" and \"compulsory realpolitik,\" urging a focus on the aesthetic and social functions of performances in a postnational space of exchange.",
"The book delves into four themes – form, ideology, reception, and diaspora – with each chapter anchored in a specific cultural sphere.",
"Case studies range from Japanese directors Yukio Ninagawa and Akira Kurosawa to Sinophone adaptations exploring gender roles and remedial Shakespeare.",
"The exploration extends to South Korean productions, examining polyphonic reception and differing views in Shakespearean performances.",
"The final chapter tackles multilingualism and diaspora in Singapore, offering rigorous analyses of various works.The book consists of a prologue, four core chapters, and an epilogue.===Prologue===The prologue argues against a simplistic view of Shakespeare's impact on colonial contexts, highlighting the interplay and cross-cultural references in global Shakespeare performances.",
"It emphasizes the significance of Asian interpretations of Shakespeare for Western readers and their influence on American and European performance cultures.",
"The author's approach rejects a nationalistic lens, focusing on connections and conflicting interpretations across different cultural contexts.",
"Using the metaphor of a rhizome, the prologue suggests a nonlinear network of knowledge to capture the multiplicity of cultural interpretations effectively.===Chapter one===The first chapter explores how Akira Kurosawa and Yukio Ninagawa have reimagined Shakespearean works in Japanese film and stage productions.",
"Kurosawa's postwar adaptation of ''Macbeth'' and Ninagawa's contemporary stage version highlight the fusion of Japanese theatrical elements with Shakespearean themes.",
"Both directors employ visual and aural techniques to defamiliarize traditional interpretations of ''Macbeth'' in Japanese culture.",
"Their works challenge assumptions about Japanese and Shakespearean performance traditions while appealing to both Western and Asian audiences.",
"Kurosawa's cinematic long shots and Ninagawa's use of stage space convey emotional detachment and cinematic quality.",

"They usually have the Civil Service designation and number included in the name, such as RNLB E-001 ''Public Servant (Civil Service No.",
"44)'', which was on service at lifeboat station on the Thames 2002–2012.Since it was formed, The Lifeboat Fund has donated over £26 million to the RNLI, making it the most regular and significant donor for the institution.",
"Civil servants across the UK organise fundraising collections and promote the lifesaving work of the RNLI.",
"All money raised by the fund goes directly to support the RNLI.The Lifeboat Fund is an official charity, formerly CISPOTEL, established in 1866 by civil servants, and is run by the Civil Service.",
"It raises funds through donations from both serving and retired employees, from Royal Mail and BT staff, and from legacies.",
"In addition to providing (so far) 55 lifeboats of all different class types, the money is also put towards training, purchasing kit, and refurbishing lifeboat stations, most recently providing a £400,000 contribution to the new lifeboat station and pontoon on the Thames."

[
"Numbering",
"The first 29 lifeboats share the designation ''(Civil Service)'' and numbers 1–11.When a boat was replaced, the new boat would receive the number from the previous boat, and often carry the same name.In the 1950s, this was changed, so that the boats were consecutively numbered, starting with ''Greater London II (Civil Service No.",

"The author also refers to a source as ''haec Brome'' (or ''Bream'') or ''de compendio Brome'' in passages drawn from Geoffrey.",
"This was taken by John Bale and Thomas Tanner to refer to a historical compilation by a certain \"Bromus\", identified with John Bramis, a 14th-century friar who translated the ''Roman de Waldef''.",
"It is more likely that it refers to an earlier abridgement of Geoffrey of Monmouth.In his ''Historia Britannicae, Saxonicae, Anglo-Danicae scriptores quindecim'' of 1691, Thomas Gale misattributed the ''Historia compendiosa'' to Diceto."

"It was recorded on March 1 and 2, 2005, at Soma Electronic Music Studios in Chicago, Illinois, and was issued on CD later that year by Rogueart as the label's inaugural release.",
"On the album, Drake is joined by saxophonists and clarinetists Daniel Carter, Ernest Dawkins, Sabir Mateen, and Greg Ward, as well as flutist and special guest Nicole Mitchell."
],
[
"Reception",
"In a review for AllMusic, Alain Drouot wrote: \"Propelled and supported by the percussionist, the four saxophonists and clarinetists offer gorgeous comping and vamping, harrowing counterpoints, and enthralling dialogues; their interwoven voices are definitely a highlight...",
"This most auspicious attempt at leading his own project should encourage Drake to move further in that direction.",
"\"Kurt Gottschalk of ''All About Jazz'' singled out \"Remembering Rituals,\" a flute and percussion duet, for praise, describing Mitchell as \"the rare flautist inventive enough to carry such an extended percussion piece.\"",
"''AAJ'''s Ollie Bivens called the album \"an enjoyable listen,\" but suggested that it \"is best enjoyed in portions—the parts being better than the whole.",
"\"''Paris Transatlantic'''s Nate Dorward stated: \"The keynote of ''Bindu''... is the relation between drums and the human voice, whether raised in praise, prayer or elegy...",
"It's music more about sound, mood and collaborative jamming than about development... the results are varied and alluring... Drake's rolling, handwoven grooves are a tonic in this age of jazz drummers hung up on herkyjerky hyperactivity.",
"\"Writing for ''JazzWord'', Ken Waxman commented: \"Moving among his extended percussion kit... Drake manipulates and maneuvers them to confirm why his rhythmic aptitude is in demand literally throughout the world.\"",
"Regarding the two-part \"Bindu #1 for Ed Blackwell,\" he remarked: \"both contain the sort of funky, pared-to-the-bone riffing that wouldn't have been unfamiliar to Count Basie's or any other Southwestern territory band reed section.",
"Off-kilter foot-tappers, they highlight irregular vibrated split tones and glottal punctuates from one altoist, double tongued, overblown honks from one of the tenorists and intense ornamentation from a clarinetist as Drake supplies triple-metered Africanized beats.",
"\"In an article for ''Perfect Sound Forever'', Mike Wood noted that, on the album, Drake \"is much more meditative and hermetic as some of his other work.\"",
"He wrote: \"Drawing on his study of Sufism and Buddhism more explicitly than in other contexts, Drake extends his past work, claiming it in surprising ways, as if showing what he has learned and what he aims to now teach.\""

"Introduction",
"The '''Serie Monumental''' (English: ''Monumental Series'') was an international club baseball tournament held in Venezuela in late 1945–46.It saw a team of all-stars from the American Negro leagues play their opposites in the Venezuelan League.",
"The series, played only once, was the immediate precursor to the 1946–50 Interamerican Series (and is sometimes considered the first of those contests), and by extension, to the modern Caribbean Series.Although the Major League Baseball color barrier had not yet been broken in 1945, the Negro league all-stars (dubbed the ''Estrellas Negras'') included several future Hall of Famers, including Jackie Robinson and Roy Campanella.",
"The Americans first played several exhibition games in Caracas against the Cerveceria Caracas club (calling themselves the Criollo All-Stars), which included active major-leaguer Alex Carrasquel; and another team (the \"Caribbean All-Stars\", with an international roster).",
"The North American team finished with a 7–2 record, with Cerveceria/Criollos at 3–4–1 and the Caribbean All-Stars at 2–5–1.The Negro leaguers then traveled to Maracaibo to play an all-star team from Zulia State, headlined by Luis Aparicio Sr.The series came in the wake of Venezuela hosting the 1944 and 1945 Amateur World Series.",
"The tournament was a commercial success, and an impetus for the professionalization of the baseball in Venezuela; the Venezuelan Professional Baseball League opened its first season in early January 1946, with Venezuelan teams contracting several Black players from the tour.",
"Sabios de Vargas reportedly tried to hire Jackie Robinson, who hit .339 in the series with a home run and five RBIs, but either he or the Brooklyn Dodgers (who had recently signed him) declined."

"Ittihadul Ulema"
],
[
"Introduction",
"Logo of Ittihadul Ulema'''Ittihadul Ulema''', officially the '''Union of Islamic Scholars and Schools''' (Kurdish: Yekîtiya Aliman û Medreseyan; Turkish: Alimler ve Medreseler Birliği) is an Islamic organization active in Turkey, which holds dialogues, and operates various boarding schools and mosques."
],
[
"History",
"Ittihadul Ulema was established in Diyarbakır in 2013, by Enver Kılıçarslan, and began giving education to both male and female students in a very short time.",
"Ittihadul Ulema is headquartered in Diyarbakir and hosts Islamic conferences for both local and international attendants.",
"Kurdish is an official language of Ittihadul Ulema, and it is a Kurdish-led organization.",
"Ittihadul Ulema also uses Turkish and Arabic alongside Kurdish.",
"Although Ittihadul Ulema claims that it has no affiliation with any governments or political groups, Enver Kılıçarslan is a veteran of the Kurdish Hezbollah, and had personally met Hüseyin Velioğlu in Iran in the 1980s.",
"According to Turkish court documents, Enver Kılıçarslan was sentenced in February 2002 and had served seven years and six months in prison for his Hezbollah membership.Ittihadul Ulema is a known rival of Diyanet, the Turkish government's religious ministry.",
"Ittihadul Ulema claims that Diyanet is a Turkish nationalist establishment, and also accuses Diyanet of racism.",
"However, Ittihadul Ulema supported Diyanet president Mehmet Görmez, and showed disappointment when Görmez was replaced by Ali Erbaş, and insisted that Görmez remained president.",
"Mehmet Şenlik, deputy chairman of Ittihadul Ulema, stated that \"Mehmet Görmez himself is a madrasa-based scholar, especially from madrasahs in Kurdistan.",
"He is trained by Kurdish scholars.",
"Mehmet Görmez's point of view on Islam is an Ummah viewpoint.",
"He is not a racist, or nationalist ruler, like the previous Diyanet presidents.\"",
"Ittihadul Ulema condemns nationalists, even Kurdish ones, although they use \"Kurdistan\" to refer to all Kurdish-majority areas, even inside Turkey.",
"They claim that the term Kurdistan is not nationalist or seditionist, and that it is the rightful name of Kurdish-populated areas, and that the term is not a negative one, nor does it make Ittihadul Ulema a nationalist organization.The official stance of Ittihadul Ulema on the situation of Kurds is that it can be solved only with Islam, and claims that Islam will unite the four parts of Kurdistan while also uniting the entire Muslim world, and resulting in a better situation for everyone.",
"Ittihadul Ulema also considers scholars like Sheikh Said, Mahmud Barzanji, and Osman Abdulaziz to be role models for anyone who fights for Kurdish rights."
],
[
"Controversies",
"In 2022, during Ittihadul Ulema's \"7th Meeting of Scholars\" conference held in Diyarbakir, which was attended by Islamic scholars from various places including Turkey, Afghanistan, Lebanon, Libya, Jordan, Iraq, Iraqi Kurdistan, Iran, and Syria.",
"At the conference, Iraqi Kurdistan was mentioned only as Kurdistan.",
"Taliban spokesman,Zabihullah Mujahid, was the representative of Afghanistan, and when he was asked about Kurdistan during an interview at the meeting, he stated \"we recognise Kurdistan.",
"Kurdistan is not just a Kurdish issue, but an issue of all Islamic states.\"",
"Zabihullah Mujahid announced his plans of visiting Iraqi Kurdistan in the future.Yusuf Kaplan, a writer for Yeni Şafak, stated that Kurdistan's inclusion was problematic and its representatives should've been listed as representatives of Iraq, in which Dr. Imad Goyeni responded by saying \"we are Kurds and we are currently in a place called Kurdistan.",
"As Kurds, of course we speak with our mother tongue Kurdish, and we do not start problems with anyone about their mother tongue, just like the other nations.",
"I was born Kurdish, no one can change this.",
"\"Enver Kılıçarslan rebuffed Kaplan's claims of Kurdistan's inclusion being problematic, and stated that no one at the meeting had a problem with Kurdistan's inclusion, nor was anyone provoked by it, not even the Iraqi or Syrian or other Turkish representatives.",
"Kılıçarslan also argued that the only reason Kaplan had a problem with it was because he held racist beliefs secretly.Ittihadul Ulema also sent a delegation to meet with Hamas leader Khaled Mashal in Qatar during the Israel–Hamas war."

"Another defining element of his work include his use of symbolic and conceptual elements.",
"His human figures are typically cyclops — having only one eye – whereas he conceptually replaces the missing eye with the eye of the viewer.",
"Rendered in a Cubistic style that divides the face, the missing eye also represents the expression \"beauty is in the eye of the beholder,\" as well as acknowledging the role of shifting perspectives that various audiences of viewers have in influencing the impact of an artwork.",
"''Arlequines'' (2020) by AGalban.He frequently works in series, and his ongoing series’ include: ''Personas'', ''Lucias'', ''Las Flores del Mal'', ''Gaudi y yo'', ''Jardines Invisibles'' (with Froilan Escobar), ''El bufón'', ''Eva y Mariela'', ''Caracol Erotico'', ''Mi Divina Comedia'', ''Cancionero'', ''Cuba se va, Seavolve'', ''El Monte'', ''Los Feos'', ''Desojando Margaritas'', ''Locuras'', ''4 Estaciones en Bicicleta'', ''Sábanas Blancas'', ''Club 27'', ''Miseria y Propaganda'', and ''Illusion of Distortion''.Galban's work has been critiqued by several art critics including Raysa White, Antonio Permuy, Armando de Armas, and Osiris Gaona.",
"Commenting on Galban's art and use of character studies, leading Contemporary Cuban artist Josignacio has critiqued: “Galban enters the soul of his paintings and portraits through the eyes, his colors and shapes take us directly to them and once in that silence he betrays the mood and state of mind of his characters.\""
