Hampton, New Brunswick
Hampton (2016 population: 4,289) is a town in Kings County, New Brunswick, Canada.
Located on the Kennebecasis River 30 kilometres northeast of Saint John, Hampton is the shire town of Kings County. It functioned as the seat of county government between 1870 and 1965 (when county governments were abolished) and is today a service centre for the central Kennebecasis River valley, as well as being a suburb of Saint John.
# History.
The area in which the town of Hampton is located had been inhabited by French settlers in the 1600's while First Nations had called it home since time immemorial. The United Empire Loyalists however were the first to establish permanent settlements | 23,003 |
1804779 | Hampton, New Brunswick | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Hampton,%20New%20Brunswick | Hampton, New Brunswick
in the area shortly after arriving in 1783. It was in 1785 that Kings County was established in NB and in 1795 the Parish of Hampton was created out of parts of Sussex and Kingston parishes. One area of the town, known now as the Lower Norton Shore, was originally known as the Yankee Shore because of all the Loyalist immigrants in the 1780s.
By 1871 Hampton had a population of 250. By 1904 it grew to 800 and also included a post office, 3 stores, 3 hotels, a match factory, a grist mill, a saw mill and 3 churches. At this time it also included the community of Hampton Ferry (population 150) and the village of Ossekeag (Hampton Station) which had a population of 500 and was home to a post office, | 23,004 |
1804779 | Hampton, New Brunswick | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Hampton,%20New%20Brunswick | Hampton, New Brunswick
7 stores, a hotel, a machine shop and 4 churches. It was also the site of a station on the Intercontinental Railway and a junction on the Hampton-St. Martin's railway. The name Ossekeag is Mi'kmaq for "marshy brook"
Hampton was incorporated as a village in 1966. It became a town in 1991.
Hampton is located in the Kennebecasis River valley, where the river flows into a wide flood plain. The Hampton Marshes contain a diverse assortment of wildlife and are one of the town's major tourist attractions. Although Hampton is located far upstream from the Bay of Fundy, its high tides have some effect there nonetheless. The marshes flood every spring during the run-off, and then the water levels vary | 23,005 |

during the course of the year, offering a constantly changing landscape for different animals, birds and fish. In late years, the marshes have suffered from an invasion of Purple Loosestrife.
The old Hampton Gaol at , built around 1870, was designated protected in 1976 as a New Brunswick Provincial Historic Site.

1804805 | The Music Makers (Elgar) | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=The%20Music%20Makers%20(Elgar) | The Music Makers (Elgar)
The Music Makers (Elgar)
The Music Makers, Op. 69, is a work for contralto or mezzo-soprano, chorus and orchestra composed by Edward Elgar. It was dedicated to ""my friend Nicholas Kilburn"". It was first performed at the Birmingham Festival on 1 October 1912, conducted by the composer, with Muriel Foster as the soloist.
The text of the work is the 1874 poem "Ode" by Arthur O'Shaughnessy, which Elgar set in its entirety. He had been working on the music intermittently since 1903, without a specific commission.
# Analysis.
The words of the poem no doubt appealed to Elgar's nature, as it celebrates the dreaming artist — by 1912, he was established as part of British artistic society, but was | 23,011 |
1804805 | The Music Makers (Elgar) | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=The%20Music%20Makers%20(Elgar) | The Music Makers (Elgar)
ambivalent at best about that society. The mood of the Ode is clear in the first lines, which depict the isolation of the creative artist:
Later verses celebrate the importance of the artist to his society.
The music is for the most part reserved and personal, and Elgar quotes his own music several times. Sometimes there is a specific verbal cue: for example, the word "dreams" is accompanied by a theme from "The Dream of Gerontius", and "sea-breakers" by the opening of "Sea Pictures". The music also quotes the first and second symphonies, the Violin Concerto, "Nimrod" (from the "Enigma Variations"), "Rule, Britannia" and "La Marseillaise".
However, it is possible to make too much of the self-quotations. | 23,012 |
1804805 | The Music Makers (Elgar) | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=The%20Music%20Makers%20(Elgar) | The Music Makers (Elgar)
Most of the music is original, and Elgar more than does justice to O'Shaughnessy, displaying a perfect ear for the sounds of the chorus and the mezzo-soprano.
# Criticism.
It was commissioned for, and first performed at, the Birmingham Triennial Music Festival, 1912. Early criticism of the work was directed more at the words than at the music, but it was also dismissed as tawdry and self-centred. It is true that performances are rare, particularly outside England. The self-quotations inevitably bring to mind Strauss's "Ein Heldenleben", but with different intent; Elgar is depicting the artist not as hero but as bard.

1804817 | Young Friends General Meeting | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Young%20Friends%20General%20Meeting | Young Friends General Meeting
Young Friends General Meeting
Young Friends General Meeting (YFGM) is the national organisation for young Quakers (from 18 to 30-ish) in the United Kingdom. The name refers both to the organisation and to the General Meetings which are held in February, May and October each year, in various Quaker Meeting Houses in Britain. The organization also publishes a tri-annual magazine entitled The Young Quaker.
# History.
The Young Friends Movement in the United Kingdom emerged in the first decade of the twentieth Century, inspired by John Wilhelm Rowntree and led by Neave Brayshaw. The first National Conference of Young Friends was held in August 1911. Among the first generation were many conscientious | 23,016 |
1804817 | Young Friends General Meeting | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Young%20Friends%20General%20Meeting | Young Friends General Meeting
objectors, who suffered badly during the Great War.
The movement has influenced Britain Yearly Meeting strongly during the twentieth century, for instance on the issue of ethical investments.
The name changed from Young Friends Central Committee to the present name in 1993.
In 1998, YFGM gave the annual Swarthmore Lecture to Friends gathered at Yearly Meeting in London, with the title "Who do we think we are? Young Friends' Commitment and Belonging".
Perhaps summing up its work is a statement from 1926: 'Our work is based on the thought that 'What you have inherited from your forefathers, you must acquire for yourselves to possess it'. That is to say that each generation of Young Friends | 23,017 |
1804817 | Young Friends General Meeting | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Young%20Friends%20General%20Meeting | Young Friends General Meeting
by its experiments must discover for itself the truths on which the Society is built, if it is to use those truths, and to continue and enlarge the work of the Society. Hence the occasional separate meetings of younger Friends and our desire to have means of expressing corporately our own experience' ("Quaker Faith & Practice", 21.04)
# Current.
Young Friends General Meeting is represented on various Quaker bodies in the United Kingdom, including two representatives on Meeting for Sufferings.
# Events.
Young Friends General Meeting arranges several events each year. In addition to three General Meetings and three Planning Weekends annually, smaller groups of YFGM members often arrange smaller | 23,018 |
1804817 | Young Friends General Meeting | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Young%20Friends%20General%20Meeting | Young Friends General Meeting
local or themed events.
## General Meetings.
Foremost among these are the General Meetings, which take place at a Meeting House somewhere in Britain three times each year, usually in February, May, and October. These are residential weekend events with most participants sleeping in the Meeting House. These events are the main venue for conducting the business of the meeting, and also serve as spiritual gatherings, and act as the hub of the community. In addition to conducting the business of the organisation, these events usually include a range of activities, including sessions with a focus on spirituality, external speakers, and the opportunity to join with local Friends for Meeting for | 23,019 |
1804817 | Young Friends General Meeting | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Young%20Friends%20General%20Meeting | Young Friends General Meeting
Worship.
## Planning Weekends.
Smaller events, Planning Weekends, which take place around six weeks before General Meetings, serve a dual purpose. Primarily, they exist to plan the proceedings of the General Meeting held in the following month. They also serve as a venue for the meeting of committees, encouraging cooperation and awareness between them.
## Pardshaw Gatherings.
Historically, YFGM was responsible for Pardshaw Young Friends' Centre and regularly held gatherings there. However, in 2008 YFGM agreed to hand over responsibility for Pardshaw to West Cumbria Area Meeting.
## YF (GM Free).
These events, which are YFGM events without the business, are usually organised by small groups | 23,020 |
1804817 | Young Friends General Meeting | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Young%20Friends%20General%20Meeting | Young Friends General Meeting
of YFGM participants on a specific theme, or simply to enjoy each other's company. Previous events have included a theme of mental wellbeing, and a retreat at Yealand Meeting House.
# "The Young Quaker".
"The Young Quaker" ("TYQ") is a magazine produced three times each year by Young Friends General Meeting since 2013. Previously known as "Young Quaker" and published monthly, it provides a forum for religious, social, environmental and other issues. It lists national and international events as well as changes of address and other notices. Because it is the magazine of Young Friends General Meeting, "Young Quaker" is primarily aimed at people between the ages of 18 and 30. The magazine is | 23,021 |
1804817 | Young Friends General Meeting | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Young%20Friends%20General%20Meeting | Young Friends General Meeting
also read by young people under 18. Writer Charlie Brooker stated that the magazine "largely consisted of poetry and people wearing sensible hand-knitted jumpers."
## Production.
While its predecessor, "Young Quaker" was sold predominantly on a subscription only basis, "The Young Quaker" is free at YFGM events and by request from the YFGM Office. It is also available to read online on its own website.
The magazine has five editors which are appointed by Young Friends General Meeting, having been discerned by YFGM's Nominations Committee. Co-editors are usually appointed for a period of three years.

## History.
"The Young Quaker" was started in 1922, as a natural development from the Young Friends movement. It stopped after a couple of years and resurfaced in the mid 1930s as a quarterly European publication. It went to ground again and then came back in the 1940s during the second world war as a London news sheet for young Friends. In 1956 production began regularly under the title "Young Quaker" and the magazine was published continuously until 2011. A full archive of can be found in the library at Friends House.

269859 | A Perfect Circle | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=A%20Perfect%20Circle | A Perfect Circle
A Perfect Circle
A Perfect Circle is an American rock supergroup formed in 1999 by guitarist Billy Howerdel and Tool vocalist Maynard James Keenan. A Perfect Circle has released four studio albums, the first three during the early 2000s: "Mer de Noms", their debut album in 2000, and followed up by "Thirteenth Step" in 2003; then in 2004, "Emotive"—an album of radically re-worked cover songs. Shortly after "Emotive"s release, the band went on hiatus; Keenan returned to Tool and started up solo work under the band name Puscifer; and Howerdel released a solo album, "Keep Telling Myself It's Alright", under the moniker Ashes Divide. Band activity was sporadic in the following years; the band reformed | 23,024 |
269859 | A Perfect Circle | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=A%20Perfect%20Circle | A Perfect Circle
in 2010, and played live shows on and off between 2010 and 2013, but fell into inactivity after the release of their greatest hits album, "Three Sixty", and a live album box set, "" in late 2013. The band reformed in 2017 to record a fourth album, "Eat the Elephant", which was released on April 20, 2018.
Prone to downtime due to Keenan's other musical commitments, the band has featured a variety of musicians in the other roles throughout its alternating periods of activity and inactivity. The original incarnation of the band included Paz Lenchantin on bass, Troy Van Leeuwen on guitar, and Josh Freese on drums. Primus drummer Tim Alexander had briefly stood in as a drummer prior to Freese in | 23,025 |
269859 | A Perfect Circle | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=A%20Perfect%20Circle | A Perfect Circle
the band's initial live shows, however this was prior to releasing any material. Band collaborator and producer Danny Lohner and Marilyn Manson bassist Jeordie White were also members for a short period in the early 2000s. The band's current lineup features Smashing Pumpkins guitarist James Iha, bassist Matt McJunkins, and drummer Jeff Friedl, the latter two also being contributors to the related Puscifer and Ashes Divide projects. Despite the varied cast and numerous lineup changes, the stylistic content of A Perfect Circle's songs has remained consistent with Howerdel as music composer, and Keenan writing lyrics and vocal melodies. The band's studio albums have been generally well received | 23,026 |
269859 | A Perfect Circle | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=A%20Perfect%20Circle | A Perfect Circle
critically and commercially, with their first three studio albums selling 4 million copies collectively as of 2005.
# History.
## Formation and "Mer de Noms" (1999–2000).
A Perfect Circle was originally conceived by Billy Howerdel, a former guitar technician for Nine Inch Nails, The Smashing Pumpkins, Fishbone and Tool. Howerdel met singer Maynard James Keenan in 1992, when Tool was opening for Fishbone, and the two became friends. Three years later, Keenan offered Howerdel, who was looking for lodging, a room in his North Hollywood home. This provided Howerdel the opportunity to play demos of his music for Keenan. Pleased with what he heard, Keenan remarked, "I can hear myself singing [those | 23,027 |
269859 | A Perfect Circle | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=A%20Perfect%20Circle | A Perfect Circle
songs]." Although he originally desired a female vocalist, Howerdel agreed that Keenan would be a good fit, and A Perfect Circle was formed a short time later. The two rounded out the band's initial lineup with bassist and violinist Paz Lenchantin, former Failure guitarist Troy Van Leeuwen, and Primus drummer Tim Alexander. The band played their first show at LA's Viper Club Reception in August 1999, followed by a larger-scale, more widely publicized show at the Coachella Festival that October. While initially in talks to release the album on Volcano Records – Tool's record label – Keenan stated that they instead chose to go with Virgin Records, who Keenan felt better understood that Keenan | 23,028 |
269859 | A Perfect Circle | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=A%20Perfect%20Circle | A Perfect Circle
meant for the band to be an equally important band to Tool, not a minor side project. After the initial shows and securing a record deal, the band entered the studio to begin work on their first album. Alexander was soon replaced with Josh Freese, who previously worked with Howerdel on the Guns N' Roses album "Chinese Democracy", with Alexander's only studio contribution being drums on the album version of the song "The Hollow".
The band's debut album, "Mer de Noms" (French for "Sea of Names"), was released on May 23, 2000. The album was well received commercially and critically. It debuted at number four on the "Billboard" 200, selling 188,000 copies in its first week and making it the highest | 23,029 |
269859 | A Perfect Circle | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=A%20Perfect%20Circle | A Perfect Circle
selling debut album for a rock band. "Mer de Noms" was later certified platinum by the RIAA, indicating 1 million copies sold, on October 31, 2000. The album was also well received by critics. The release earned the band the "Best Debut Album" award from the California Music Awards. In the album review by "Rolling Stone", Pat Blashill wrote that Keenan "added an almost operatic angst to Howerdel's songs" and concluded that "A Perfect Circle sound like a desperate dream of what rock used to be. Maybe that's the point." AllMusic's review expressed that "there's little question that the addicting combination of Keenan's aching voice and Howerdel's accomplished songs and production skills made for | 23,030 |
269859 | A Perfect Circle | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=A%20Perfect%20Circle | A Perfect Circle
one of 2000's best splashes in whatever was left of 'modern rock'."
Promotions began shortly after recording for the album was finished. Initially, they served as the opening act for Nine Inch Nails on the 2000 "Fragility v2.0" tour, but subsequently embarked on a number of headlining tours all over the world, touring for around eight months straight. As Keenan was well known through his other band, he would often wear long wigs on his otherwise bald head when performing, to distinguish himself from his Tool persona. The album produced three singles as well: "Judith", "3 Libras", and "The Hollow". All three performed well commercially; peaking at fourth, twelfth, and fourteenth on the "Billboard" | 23,031 |
269859 | A Perfect Circle | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=A%20Perfect%20Circle | A Perfect Circle
Mainstream Rock chart respectively.
## "Thirteenth Step" (2001–2003).
Activity began slowing down for the band by late 2000, with Keenan returning to Tool to finish the recording of what would be their next album, "Lateralus". Keenan returned to A Perfect Circle to tour from January to March 2001, until returning to Tool again for the rest of 2001 to release and tour in support of "Lateralus". Initial plans were for Howerdel to collaborate long-distance on writing new A Perfect Circle material with Keenan while he toured with Tool, by sending ideas back and forth to one another, though Keenan found it too difficult to balance both, eventually lessening his role while he focused on Tool. Efforts | 23,032 |
269859 | A Perfect Circle | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=A%20Perfect%20Circle | A Perfect Circle
continued through mid-2002, with Howerdel primarily focusing on writing new material while sporadically working with Van Leeuwen, Lenchantin, and Freese. By June 2002, Van Leeuwen estimated that about 80% of the instrumental material was completed while they waited for Keenan's return. However, lineup changes and disagreements on the album's direction would lead to the album not being released for over a year. Both Lenchantin and VanLeeuwen had both been working on solo material during the band's downtime, and then moved on to join other bands. Lenchantin would leave to join Billy Corgan's new start-up band Zwan in April 2002, while Van Leeuwen began touring Queens of the Stone Age shortly after. | 23,033 |
269859 | A Perfect Circle | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=A%20Perfect%20Circle | A Perfect Circle
Ex-Marilyn Manson bassist Jeordie White, formerly known as Twiggy Ramirez, replaced Lenchantin on bass in January 2003. Shortly after, VanLeeuwen permanently left the band, and long-time band collaborator Danny Lohner filled in temporarily as the second guitarist for wrapping up the album.
Keenan rejoined the sessions in early 2003, and the music began taking a different direction with the new lineup and Keenan's influence. Beyond the new personnel, the dynamic had changed: With "Mer de Noms", Howerdel had already written and finalized all of the music, with Keenan just contributing the lyrics and vocals. This time around, Keenan was more active in vetoing or altering musical ideas, determined | 23,034 |
269859 | A Perfect Circle | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=A%20Perfect%20Circle | A Perfect Circle
to make something different than just another hard rock album, in fear of it being redundant. Sessions became tense, with Howerdel preferring the heavier compositions written while waiting for Keenan to return to the band, and sometimes taking offense to Keenan's suggested mellower rearrangements. White would play the role of a mediator between the two; being newer to the band helped him provide an outsider's perspective, helping them to find a common ground. The band released their second album, "Thirteenth Step", on September 16, 2003. The album debuted even higher than "Mer de Noms", charting at number 2 in its opening week and selling over 233,000 copies. The album, and its accompanying | 23,035 |
269859 | A Perfect Circle | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=A%20Perfect%20Circle | A Perfect Circle
new sound, fared well critically as well. The AllMusic review praised the band's new sound, describing it as "moodier, tenser, and more atmospheric (if that is possible) recording than its predecessor ... The wide dynamic swathes that were so prominent on the band's debut are all but absent here. The squalling guitars have taken a backseat to carefully crafted melodies where atmospherics are maximized and pulled taut over the listener. While not a radical departure from "Mer de Noms", there is a real progression here... Lyrically, musically, sonically, the "Thirteenth Step" is proof positive that mainstream rock has plenty of life and vision left in it."
Touring in support of the album started | 23,036 |
269859 | A Perfect Circle | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=A%20Perfect%20Circle | A Perfect Circle
in the U.S. in July 2003, and ran through the end of the year, with a brief European leg of the tour extending out to Europe with the Deftones in September. Lohner, who could not commit to touring on a full-time permanent basis, was replaced by former The Smashing Pumpkins guitarist James Iha. In January 2004, the group left the country to play shows in Europe, Australia, New Zealand and Japan. They headed back to the U.S. in March and wrapped up touring in June, totaling to about a year straight of touring. Meanwhile, three singles were released from the album: "Weak and Powerless", "The Outsider" and "Blue". "Weak and Powerless" managed to top the "Billboard" Modern Rock Tracks and Mainstream | 23,037 |
269859 | A Perfect Circle | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=A%20Perfect%20Circle | A Perfect Circle
Rock Songs, while "The Outsider" later peaked in the top 5 of both as well. "Weak and Powerless" and "The Outsider" were also the band's only songs to have substantial cross-over success, charting on the "Billboard" Hot 100 all-format chart, at 61 and 79 respectively.
## "Emotive" (2004).
After wrapping up the touring in support of "Thirteenth Step" in the first half of 2004, the band had announced it planned to enter a long hiatus while Keenan returned to Tool and Howerdel pursued a solo career. In July 2004, Keenan performed at Serj Tankian's (System of a Down) and Tom Morello's (Rage Against the Machine) Axis of Justice concert – an event for musicians to advocate for political and social | 23,038 |
269859 | A Perfect Circle | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=A%20Perfect%20Circle | A Perfect Circle
causes. At the performance, Keenan announced that A Perfect Circle would be releasing a collection of political cover songs. During the beginning of the touring cycle for "Thirteenth Step", Howerdel and Keenan discussed potential ideas for a third studio album. An early idea was to record an album of cover songs, though they were initially hesitant, feeling they needed a meaningful reason to warrant doing it. Keenan, who had been very critical of President George W. Bush during the touring cycle, proposed tying the concept together as a political-themed covers album, with Howerdel, while generally apolitical publicly, felt was worth pursuing in their post-September 11th attacks political and | 23,039 |
269859 | A Perfect Circle | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=A%20Perfect%20Circle | A Perfect Circle
social climate. The two put their plans on hold temporarily and decided to move forward on the project as the band's third studio album. Keenan emphasized that, despite his personal feelings on Bush, the album was less of an "anti-Bush" album, and more of a "anti-political apathy" – encouraging people to research things and become more involved.
The band rushed to complete the album in time to release it prior to the 2004 U.S. Presidential Elections in November, just barely a year after their prior release. Recording sessions ran from late June to early September. The sessions, largely the work of Howerdel, Keenan, and Freese, contained contributions from past and present members of the band, | 23,040 |
269859 | A Perfect Circle | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=A%20Perfect%20Circle | A Perfect Circle
including Lenchantin, Lohner, White, and Iha. Keenan, aware of the time constraints and Howerdel's future intentions on doing solo albums, also encouraged Howerdel to contribute lead vocals to about a third of the album. A wide variety of different songs were chosen to be recorded, from Marvin Gaye's "What's Going On" to Led Zeppelin's "When the Levee Breaks". Most songs were radical reinterpretations of the original, sometimes unrecognizable compared to the originals. Howerdel explained that it was done on purpose, to make the song's their own, and conceded that he, as of 2010, still had not even once ever heard the original version of Crucifix's "Annihilation", another song re-recorded for | 23,041 |
269859 | A Perfect Circle | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=A%20Perfect%20Circle | A Perfect Circle
the album. He also stated that some songs had started as original A Perfect Circle songs musically, until the band decided to use the lyrics of other songs over the compositions, in turn converting them into cover songs.
The band's third album, "Emotive", was released on November 2, 2004 – the actual U.S Presidential Election Day. However, the album received a much more polarizing reception than the prior two albums, with some critics and fans not appreciating the band's move into more political content, or the radical liberties they had taken with the album's cover versions. Other's accused the band of rushing out a third album in order to fulfill the band's three album contractual obligation | 23,042 |
269859 | A Perfect Circle | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=A%20Perfect%20Circle | A Perfect Circle
to Virgin Records, a claim refuted as false by Howerdel. The album still managed to receive a generally positive reception from critics. Sales were similarly positive, but less so than prior albums. The position debuted at number 2 on the "Billboard" 200 charts, selling 142,000 copies in its first week – matching "Thirteenth Step's" peak chart placement, but selling almost 90,000 copies less. The album was certified Gold by the RIAA, indicating 500,000 units sold.
The band did not tour in support of the release, instead entering a hiatus shortly after its completion. Two singles were released in support of the album, the first of which was a somber cover of John Lennon's "Imagine" The second | 23,043 |
269859 | A Perfect Circle | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=A%20Perfect%20Circle | A Perfect Circle
single, "Passive", was one of just two original songs on the album, tracing back to writing sessions for Trent Reznor's unreleased Tapeworm project. In the late 1990s, Reznor started the project for songs that did not fit Nine Inch Nails, which eventually grew into a collaborative project with a number of other musicians. One track, "Vacant", featured contributions from Keenan and Lohner in 1999, but with the project hitting development hell due to creative and legal hurdles of many of the participants in the early 2000s, A Perfect Circle began playing the track at live shows. With the project being shelved completely by 2004, Keenan decided to rework the track as "Passive" for "Emotive". Additionally, | 23,044 |
269859 | A Perfect Circle | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=A%20Perfect%20Circle | A Perfect Circle
two weeks after the release of the album release, on November 16, 2004, the band released the CD/DVD compilation set entitled "Amotion". The DVD part contained the music videos for band six singles; while the CD is composed entirely of remixes of the singles from "Mer de Noms" and "Thirteenth Step".
## Hiatus and other projects (2005–2009).
The band entered a hiatus in January 2005, with members turning to their own separate projects. Keenan rejoined Tool to record what would be 2006's "10,000 Days", Howerdel began pursuing a solo career, and the rest joined various other touring or sessions recording roles. The band's fate remained uncertain in the following years. It was referred to as "hiatus | 23,045 |
269859 | A Perfect Circle | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=A%20Perfect%20Circle | A Perfect Circle
or done until further notice" by Howerdel in October 2005, on "life-support" by Keenan in April 2006, and "done for now" by Howerdel in May 2006. Towards the end of 2007, Keenan spoke more optimistically about the band reforming someday, but felt that it would probably be in a more limited capacity – for a tour or a new single release, not another full-length studio album. Keenan explained:
During the time, Howerdel continued to work on projects with various past A Perfect Circle members. In 2005, he wrote and composed the soundtrack to "", collaborating with Van Leeuwen, Lenchantin, and Freese on a number of tracks. Howerdel continued to work on recording a solo album from 2005 through 2007; | 23,046 |
269859 | A Perfect Circle | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=A%20Perfect%20Circle | A Perfect Circle
the sessions were difficult, so he eventually began collaborating with past A Perfect Circle members, including Lohner as a producer, Freese as a drummer, and Lenchantin as a co-writer for a track. The material was eventually released under the name Ashes Divide on the album "Keep Telling Myself It's Alright" in early 2008. Meanwhile, Keenan had moved on from working with Tool, and started up a solo-project of sorts on his own, called Puscifer, of which he began releasing studio albums for in 2007. Despite both projects going, both Keenan and Howerdel released statements in 2008 that the band was not dead.
## Reformation, touring, compilation releases (2010–2016).
As early as December 2008, | 23,047 |
269859 | A Perfect Circle | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=A%20Perfect%20Circle | A Perfect Circle
Keenan had mentioned that he and Howerdel had passively and separately been writing new material for A Perfect Circle, although the band would officially remain in hiatus and largely out of the view of the public through mid-2010. The turning point was an unexpected collaboration between Keenan and Howerdel; Keenan was scheduled to perform a rendition of "Bohemian Rhapsody" with Queen guitarist Brian May in June at E3 2010, but May had to cancel at the last minute. In need of a guitarist, and knowing Howerdel was the area, Keenan reached out, and had Howerdel play guitar for the performance at the last minute. Despite little time to prepare, the performance was a success, and afterwards, both | 23,048 |
269859 | A Perfect Circle | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=A%20Perfect%20Circle | A Perfect Circle
felt more compelled to perform together again.
In September, the band officially announced the end of their hiatus, indicating they would again return to live performances. Keenan, Howerdel, Freese, and Iha all returned to their respective roles, though, with Lenchantin and White unavailable, the band recruited Matt McJunkins, touring bassist for Ashes Divide and Puscifer, to join as bassist. The performances, running through the end of 2010, included traveling to five separate cities for three nights of shows in each city, with each night containing a complete, in-order performance of one of each of their three albums – "Mer de Noms", "Thirteenth Step", and "Emotive" – notably being the first | 23,049 |
269859 | A Perfect Circle | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=A%20Perfect%20Circle | A Perfect Circle
time most of the material from the latter had ever been performed live. Throughout the year the band would discuss the prospect of new material, but with uncertainty. Keenan continued to insist that logistics and industry trends made recording another full album unlikely, and that single one-off songs would be more likely. Howerdel noted that he had been writing material and presenting rough demos to Keenan since 2008, but that much of the material was in a state of flux, some being accepted by Keenan as potential A Perfect Circle material, while other being rejected by Keenan, and/or saved by Howerdel for a prospective Ashes Divide release in the future.
The band continued their live performances | 23,050 |
269859 | A Perfect Circle | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=A%20Perfect%20Circle | A Perfect Circle
into 2011, including a North American tour that spanned May through August. Notable events included Rock on the Range, Edgefest, Bluesfest, Kanrocksas Music Festival, Lollapalooza, a performance at the Red Rocks Amphitheatre. Freese, who had already committed to drumming for Weezer during the same time-frame, was only able to perform at the opening show, and was replaced by Jeff Friedl for the remainder of the shows, who, like McJunkins, had previously worked with both Ashes divide and Puscifer. Keenan and Howerdel continued to allude to recording new music, but continued to state that the process was slow, the logistics of money and availability made it difficult, and that a full album was | 23,051 |
269859 | A Perfect Circle | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=A%20Perfect%20Circle | A Perfect Circle
still unlikely, in favor of single songs instead. Only one new song, "By and Down", was performed at the shows. By the end of the year, Keenan revealed that none of the material was ready for release, and that moving into 2012, he and Howerdel were moving back into their respective other projects – Puscifer and Ashes Divide. The band was inactive over the course of 2012, outside of a single live show in December. However, just prior to the show, in October 2012, Freese announced he would be permanently leaving the band, with Friedl becoming his permanent replacement.
The band played a few live shows in early 2013, including Soundwave Music Festival in Australia and Lollapalooza Chile, though | 23,052 |
269859 | A Perfect Circle | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=A%20Perfect%20Circle | A Perfect Circle
Keenan reported that they had still yet to complete any new tracks due to their other commitments. Later in the year, the band announced two separate compilation releases for November 2013. The first, a greatest hits album entitled "Three Sixty", containing one new studio recording, "By and Down", and the second, a box set entitled "". The box set contained four CDs of live music: one for each of their three entire-album performances of "Mer de Noms", "Thirteenth Step", and "Emotive" done in 2010, collectively dubbed "Trifecta", and a recording of their 2011 performance at the Red Rocks Amphitheatre, dubbed "Stone and Echo". The set also came with DVD video recording of the 2011 "Stone and Echo" | 23,053 |
269859 | A Perfect Circle | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=A%20Perfect%20Circle | A Perfect Circle
performance. In promoting the releases, Howerdel commented on future releases once again, stating that he felt they had "75% of the foundation of [the next] A Perfect Circle record ready", though he conceded that they were still without Keenan's lyrics or vocal melodies, and could still change depending on Keenan's reaction to the material. He also conceded that they still disagreed on the release medium; Keenan preferred smaller releases, while Howerdel preferred the format of a full album. Shortly after, the band again fell into a few years of public inactivity, with little occurring outside of Howerdel's 2015 commentary reiterating his commitment to the band, and Keenan's early 2016 commentary | 23,054 |
269859 | A Perfect Circle | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=A%20Perfect%20Circle | A Perfect Circle
reiterating he still hoped to return to the band.
## "Eat the Elephant" (2017–present).
The band became active again in 2017, with the announcement that they would reform to embark a North American tour in April and May 2017, with the intention of using the live performances of new material as motivation to finish recording the album, similar to how they had embarked on their first 1999 tour to inspire the completion of "Mer de Noms". In March, the band announced they had signed a new record contract – their first in thirteen years – to release a fourth full-length studio album through BMG Rights Management. Howerdel initially gave a tentative timeframe of between November 2017 to early 2018 | 23,055 |
269859 | A Perfect Circle | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=A%20Perfect%20Circle | A Perfect Circle
for the new album, while Keenan stated that the album wouldn't be out in 2017. A second North American tour began in October, and runs through December 2017. The band continued to debut new songs during the tours, including the tracks "Feathers" and "Hourglass".
The band's fourth studio album, "Eat the Elephant", was released on April 20, 2018. Four singles were released in advance of the album; "The Doomed" in October 2017, "Disillusioned" in January 2018, "TalkTalk" in February 2018 and "So Long, and Thanks for All the Fish" in April 2018. The album marks the first time the band opted to work with an outside music producer: Dave Sardy. Sardy helped Keenan and Howerdel find common ground in | 23,056 |
269859 | A Perfect Circle | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=A%20Perfect%20Circle | A Perfect Circle
musical ideas in the recording process, helping them find a path to move forward in finishing the album. The band will tour extensively in 2018 in support of the album, including performances at Rock on the Range and Coachella. In June 2018, the band extended their touring with a new North American leg towards the end of the year, and released a 2D hologram video for the song "The Contrarian". Iha was unavailable to perform in the April through July performances due to his commitment to the , and is temporarily replaced for the live performances by Greg Edwards of Failure, though Iha still remains a member of the band. Howerdel noted that he would like to see the band keep active beyond the | 23,057 |
269859 | A Perfect Circle | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=A%20Perfect%20Circle | A Perfect Circle
"Eat the Elephant" album cycle, but that future activity, as it had historically been, is dependent on Keenan's limited availability and commitments to his other projects. When asked about if there would be further albums, in June 2018, Keenan responded "Yeah, there should be". Howerdel was optimistic in November 2018 as well, agreeing that the band “will move forward for sure”.
# Musical style, influences and legacy.
The band's music has been described as a number of different genres, though despite the sound changes and lineup changes, the writing process has remained the same for the band; Howerdel primarily writes the band's instrumental music, while Keenan contributes the lyrics and vocal | 23,058 |
269859 | A Perfect Circle | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=A%20Perfect%20Circle | A Perfect Circle
melodies. Keenan, already very well known for his work with fronting the band Tool through the 1990s, always strove to keep the sound of two bands different:
Howerdel has similarly described A Perfect Circle as a more emotional, vulnerable, and feminine approach to music than Tool. He has cited among his influences, several albums that had a strong impact on his way of playing: Adam Ant's "Kings of the Wild Frontier", for its "weird hybrid of pirate music and American Indian influence", Siouxsie and the Banshees' "Tinderbox" as "one of the spookiest records I've ever heard" and for its "dense atmosphere", Ozzy Osbourne's "Diary of a Madman" as "Randy Rhoads has been a huge influence for me, | 23,059 |
269859 | A Perfect Circle | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=A%20Perfect%20Circle | A Perfect Circle
especially when I was starting out" and finally the Cure's "Pornography", which he described as "another spooky atmospheric record" and "one of the scariest albums I've ever heard".
Tracy Frey of AllMusic described the band's sound as "an extension of the alt-metal-fused-with-art rock style popularized by Tool in the early to mid-'90s. While similar to Tool in intensity and melancholy, A Perfect Circle is less dark and more melodic, with a theatrical, ambient quality that incorporates occasional strings and unusual instrumentation. While Keenan referred to the band first album, "Mer de Noms", as more of a hard rock album, for subsequent albums, out of fear of redundancy, he often pushed for | 23,060 |
269859 | A Perfect Circle | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=A%20Perfect%20Circle | A Perfect Circle
a more mellow, atmospheric sound, something he and Howerdel did not always see eye to eye on, creating a sound noted to be similar to merging heavy rock music with "Disintegration"-era The Cure music. In general, common genre classifications applied to labeling the band's music include alternative rock, alternative metal, hard rock, art rock, art metal, progressive rock and progressive metal. The band has also been lumped in with the nu metal genre, a label that is cited due to the band's rise to fame coinciding with the genre's movement towards more melodic heavy material similar to A Perfect Circle's sound, and its use was contested by many publications.
Both A Perfect Circle and Tool have | 23,061 |
269859 | A Perfect Circle | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=A%20Perfect%20Circle | A Perfect Circle
been widely hailed as major influences on modern rock. In a 2015 retrospective, VH1 noted that, "at some point sounding like Tool became a subgenre of rock. Although that is a little misleading as many of these bands were actually ripping off A Perfect Circle, because of its easier-to-grasp melody and simpler rhythms." Reviewers from outlets such as AllMusic and "Rolling Stone" cited "Mer de Noms" and "Thirteenth Step" as rare examples of relevance and quality in contemporary rock music. Online music magazine musicOMH asserted the band had "literally defined alternative rock as we know it."

Luc de Clapiers, marquis de Vauvenargues
Luc de Clapiers, marquis de Vauvenargues (; 6 August 1715 – 28 May 1747) was a French writer and moralist. He died at age 31, in broken health, having published the year prior—anonymously—a collection of essays and aphorisms with the encouragement of Voltaire, his friend. He first received public notice under his own name in 1797, and from 1857 on, his aphorisms became popular. In the history of French literature, his significance lies chiefly in his friendship with Voltaire (20 years his senior).
# Life.
He was born in Aix-en-Provence into the nobility, but his family was poor. He spent his youth at the family seat, Chateau of Vauvenargues. Frail health | 23,082 |
1804818 | Luc de Clapiers, marquis de Vauvenargues | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Luc%20de%20Clapiers,%20marquis%20de%20Vauvenargues | Luc de Clapiers, marquis de Vauvenargues
prevented him from pursuing any but minimal schooling; he did not study Latin or Greek. He also suffered poor eyesight. In boyhood, he became friends with Victor Riqueti, marquis of Mirabeau (born 1715), father of the future French Revolution figure, Mirabeau, and with the future archaeologist, Jules-François-Paul Fauris de Saint-Vincens (born 1718), with both of whom he would correspond avidly once he left home.
In the France of that age, the only occupations considered proper for a nobleman were in the military or the church. At age 17 or 18, Vauvenargues embarked on a career in the military, as a cadet in the King's Regiment. By 1739, he had achieved the rank of lieutenant; later, he was | 23,083 |

promoted to captain. In 1740, he met a fellow officer, an adolescent about nine years his junior, Paul Hippolyte Emmanuel de Seytres, who became a permanent object of the author's devotion. The two were part of the disastrous Siege of Prague (1742), the expedition to Bohemia in support of Frederick II of Prussia's designs on Silesia, in which the French were abandoned by their ally. Seytres died in the spring, at the age of seventeen. The future author's fascination for the boy persisted for the remaining five years of his own life. He addressed his philosophical work, "Conseil à un jeune homme (Advice to a young Man)" to Seytres and labored on a funeral eulogy for him, a work which Vauvenargues | 23,084 |
1804818 | Luc de Clapiers, marquis de Vauvenargues | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Luc%20de%20Clapiers,%20marquis%20de%20Vauvenargues | Luc de Clapiers, marquis de Vauvenargues
considered to be among the most important of his life and which he continued to polish until his own death. The Siege of Prague ruined Vauvenargues physically. In December, when half the army was conducted in a strategic retreat, his legs froze, and though he spent a long time in hospital at Nancy he never completely recovered. He was present at the battle of Dettingen, and on his return to France was garrisoned at Arras. He retired from the army.
He began corresponding with Voltaire in April 1743. He was encouraged to turn to literature by his friend the marquis of Mirabeau, author of "L'Ami des Hommes", and father of the statesman. Wishing to enter the diplomatic service, for two years he | 23,085 |

made applications to ministers and to king Louis XV himself. These efforts were unsuccessful, but Vauvenargues nevertheless came close to securing a diplomatic appointment, thanks to the intervention of Voltaire. But he contracted smallpox, which disfigured him, rendered him nearly blind, and left him with a chronic cough. Voltaire then asked him to submit to him his ideas on the difference between Jean Racine and Pierre Corneille. Their acquaintance ripened into a deep friendship.
Vauvenargues managed to move to Paris in 1745, where he lived as a recluse. Among the few people he socialized with were Jean-François Marmontel and Voltaire. He continued to correspond with Fauris de Saint-Vincens. | 23,086 |

In 1746 he published—anonymously—his sole volume, a collection of writing including "Introduction à la connaissance de l'esprit humain", with "Reflexions" and "Maximes" appended. Voltaire implored him to publish a second edition of the book with improved diction. It was published in the year of his death (different sources disagree on whether he lived to see the publication of the second edition).
He died in Paris on 28 May 1747.
# Works.
In childhood, he developed a great admiration for the work of the ancient Greek writer Plutarch.
Despite the scantiness of Vauvenargues's oeuvre, it has attracted considerable interest. A century after his death, Schopenhauer favorably quoted several of | 23,087 |
1804818 | Luc de Clapiers, marquis de Vauvenargues | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Luc%20de%20Clapiers,%20marquis%20de%20Vauvenargues | Luc de Clapiers, marquis de Vauvenargues
Vauvenargues sayings, including: "la clarté est la bonne foi des philosophes" [clarity is the good faith of philosophers], from "Reflections and Maxims", 729], and: "personne n'est sujet a plus de fautes que ceux qui n'agissent que par reflexion" [none are so prone to make mistakes as those who act only on reflection].
The chief distinction between Vauvenargues and his predecessor François de La Rochefoucauld is that Vauvenargues thinks nobly of man, and is altogether inclined rather to the Stoic than to the Epicurean theory. He has been called a modern Stoic.

King Arthur and the Knights of Justice
King Arthur and the Knights of Justice is an animated series produced by Golden Films, C&D (Créativité et Développement) and Bohbot Entertainment. The series was created by Jean Chalopin along with Diane Eskenazi (Golden Films) and Avi Arad (Toy Biz chairman, CEO and the founder of Marvel Studios) who were also executive producers of the series, which lasted for two seasons of 13 episodes each. Its first episode aired on September 13, 1992, and the last episode was on December 12, 1993.

The wizard Merlin, unable to free King Arthur and the Knights himself, searches the timeline for replacement Knights. He finds the quarterback of the New York Knights football team, Arthur King, and transports him and his teammates to Camelot after one of their football games. He appoints Arthur King as their leader, with his teammates as the new Knights of the Round Table, and assigns them the task of freeing the true King and Knights. To do so, they must find the Twelve Keys of Truth, one for each knight that only the knight in question can initially touch. Once all the keys are found, the real knights will be free and the team will return home. In the meantime, they pledge "fairness to all, | 23,095 |

to protect the weak and vanquish the evil". The Knights are armed with special armor and are able to summon their respective creatures at any time when in battle armor. These animals, such as King Arthur's dragon, are emblazoned on their shields.
The series had a progressive story with both sides advanced towards their goals. Continuity was also established in the episodes which would be brought up in later episodes, along with some repeat minor characters, character relationships, and previously overcome weaknesses of the Knights. Despite the continual movement towards a resolution, the series is incomplete and ended abruptly during the second season.

Round Table.
- King Arthur (Arthur King) (voiced by Andrew Kavadas) – The quarterback of his football team, "The Knights", in his own time, Arthur uses his natural leadership skill in battle against Morgana's forces. While seeking Merlin's counsel at times, Arthur usually comes up with clever strategies and battle plans when needed. His shield houses the Dragon of Justice (also called the Dragon of the Shield), a wyvern which can be unleashed to do his bidding when he needs it. The dragon was the family crest of the original Arthur of legend, Arthur Pendragon. He stores the great sword Excalibur in his chestplate, rather than a sheath. His horse's name is mentioned once as being Valor.
- Sir | 23,097 |

Lancelot (Lance) (voiced by Scott McNeil) – Lance is the second-in-command of the knights and Arthur's best friend. Fearless and brave, Lance is usually the most serious of the knights. His emblem is a lion.
- Sir Tone (voiced by Scott McNeil) – Tone is the team's inventor and blacksmith. He invents many machines based on ones he has seen in his own time. Tone's real name is Anthony, and he speaks with an Italian accent. His chestplate houses a hammer and chisel with which he can build almost anything.
- Sir Trunk (voiced by Scott McNeil) – The knights' strongman. His shield contains a giant ram strong enough to break down walls and carry several people on its back with ease.
- Sir Wally | 23,098 |

(voiced by Lee Jeffrey) – A guard for "The Knights" football team, as a true knight his job is now to protect Arthur during attacks. Good natured, but takes it hard when he makes mistakes. Sir Brick is his best friend. His shield emblem is a falcon.
- Sir Brick (voiced by Garry Chalk) – Like Wally, Brick is usually used as Arthur's bodyguard. He has unwavering loyalty to his friends, including his best friend, Wally. He is able to call an apparently unlimited supply of bricks out of his chest plate and create massive walls from them at will.
- Sir Phil (voiced by Garry Chalk) – One of the stronger knights of the twelve. Is very adamant about returning "to the land of cheeseburgers and fries". | 23,099 |
