Intercrural fibres of superficial inguinal ring
The intercrural fibers (intercolumnar fibers) are a series of curved tendinous fibers, which arch across the lower part of the aponeurosis of the Obliquus externus, describing curves with the convexities downward.
They have received their name from stretching across between the two crura of the subcutaneous inguinal ring, and they are much thicker and stronger at the inferior crus, where they are connected to the inguinal ligament, than superiorly, where they are inserted into the linea alba.
The intercrural fibers increase the strength of the lower part of the aponeurosis, and prevent the divergence of the crura from one another; they are more | 6,122,901 |

t the divergence of the crura from one another; they are more strongly developed in the male than in the female.
# Intercrural fascia.
As they pass across the subcutaneous inguinal ring, they are connected together by delicate fibrous tissue, forming a fascia, called the "intercrural fascia".
This intercrural fascia is continued down as a tubular prolongation around the spermatic cord and testis, and encloses them in a sheath; hence it is also called the "external spermatic fascia".
The subcutaneous inguinal ring is seen as a distinct aperture only after the intercrural fascia has been removed.

Sam Khok District
Sam Khok (, ) is a district ("amphoe") in the northern part of Pathum Thani Province, central Thailand, about 50 kilometres north of Bangkok.
# History.
"Mueang" Sam Khok is an ancient city, dating to the early-Ayutthaya Kingdom. It was called "Thung Phaya Muang" before King Uthong established the kingdom in 1350. The first written evidence of its existence—the law on official seals dated 1632—occurs in the reign of King Prasat Thong".
In 1660, a group of Mon people migrated to Ayutthaya because they were oppressed by Burmese rule in their homeland. King Narai the Great provided the area of Mueang Sam Khok for them to establish a new town. Later a further immigration of | 6,122,905 |
6867594 | Sam Khok District | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Sam%20Khok%20District | Sam Khok District
Mon people to Thailand happened in the reign of King Taksin the Great in 1774 and King Phutthaloetla Naphalai (Rama II) in 1815. Some immigrants settled at Sam Khok, others moved to Pak Kret, Nonthaburi Province and Phra Pa Daeng, Samut Prakan Province.
In 1726 a book entitled, "Oud En Niew Oost-Indien" was published in Holland by the Dutch cartographer, De Groote. In it, De Groote's map called "Siamese Rievier Menam" describes Sam Khok as a "Potte Bakkers Drop" ('pottery-making village'). Sam Khok is still known for its Mon earthenware jars. The name "Sam Khok", meaning 'three mounds', refers to the three mounds used to produce jars.
When King Phutthaloetla Naphalai visited Sam Khok in 1815 | 6,122,906 |
6867594 | Sam Khok District | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Sam%20Khok%20District | Sam Khok District
for the "kathin" (Buddhist robe ceremony) and "rub bua" (lotus presentation) the local Mon people gave him many lotus flowers. Impressed by their devotion, the king renamed the city "Prathum Thani", meaning 'city of lotus'. At the same time, the king upgraded the city to a third-class city. King Vajiravudh (Rama VI) later renamed the city "Pathum Thani", but the meaning is unchanged.
King Chulalongkorn (Rama V) changed the status of the city to Sam Khok District in 1898.

The genus Mesosmittia is cosmopolitan, thus occurring in all biogeographical regions except for Antarctica. Almost nothing or very little is known about its ecology, the larva of one species was described by Strenze (1950) as terrestrial, but adults can be collected using emergence traps set over rivulets.
The genus was recently revised for the Neotropics with descriptions of new species.
The genus comprises:

6867661 | Blackout Records | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Blackout%20Records | Blackout Records
Blackout Records
Blackout! Records is an independent record label which specializes in hardcore punk.
It was formed in 1988 by Bill Wilson and Jim Gibson. In 1989, the label released its album, a New York hardcore compilation album entitled "Where the Wild Things Are". The album included tracks from Sheer Terror, Killing Time, and others.
After this first release, Gibson amicably parted company to start his own record label, Noiseville Records. Blackout! continued to release more local hardcore, with EPs from Uppercut and Outburst, and a live single from Sheer Terror. This was followed by a mini album from Crawlpappy and the U.S. edition of the Sheer Terror album "Just Can't Hate Enough".
Although | 6,122,916 |
6867661 | Blackout Records | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Blackout%20Records | Blackout Records
the label released a pressing of a greatest hits from UK Oi! band The Business, a reissue of Rest In Pieces debut album, and EPs from The Icemen, American Standard, and Outcrowd, there was a lull in activity during the beginning of the 1990s as the local hardcore scene became more prone to violence – a fact which compounded the temporary demise of one Blackout! band in particular, Killing Time. During this period Wilson established another imprint, Engine Records, which had a more indie rock sound, releasing multiple records, including the acclaimed Fast Japanese Spin Cycle EP from Guided By Voices.
In 1992, Blackout! returned to punk when they chanced upon a female-fronted band, The Goops, | 6,122,917 |
6867661 | Blackout Records | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Blackout%20Records | Blackout Records
playing at CBGB's and decided to release their records. The Goops toured with Rancid and after an appearance in the soundtrack to the Kevin Smith film "Mallrats", signed to Kinetic Records, a part of Reprise/Warner Brothers in 1995. During the same time, Sheer Terror signed to MCA Inc.. The label also achieved its biggest independent success with the release of the debut album from H2O in 1996. The band subsequently signed to Epitaph Records.
From around 1995 onwards, there was a general explosion of a new wave of hardcore punk – not only on the east coast of America, but also the opposite coast, where Californian labels Indecision Records and Nitro Records started releasing product. Along | 6,122,918 |
6867661 | Blackout Records | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Blackout%20Records | Blackout Records
with Blackout! and Victory Records, they were the main independent punk record labels well into the new millennium.
The label ended the 1990s with records from Killing Time, Kill Your Idols, and East Bay/ Berkeley bands Redemption 87 and Powerhouse. The early part of the 2000s brought some new blood, including Crime In Stereo, NJ's The Banner, The Procedure, and The Commercials. The last official Blackout! release was "The Fire Still Burns" in 2005. Although no longer releasing new music, the label still maintains a blog at its website which is infrequently updated and has the catalog available digitally on Amazon, iTunes, eMusic, Rhapsody, and other major digital outlets through The Orchard.

Recurring characters in the Hercule Poirot stories
This page details the other fictional characters created by Agatha Christie in her stories about the Belgian detective, Hercule Poirot.
# Captain Arthur Hastings.
Hastings first meets Poirot during his years as a private detective in Europe. Almost immediately after they both arrive in England, he becomes Poirot's partner, and appears in many of the novels and stories. Poirot's view of Hastings was of a man with plenty of imagination but not a great deal of brains.
Hastings was capable of great bravery when the going got tough, facing death unflinchingly when confronted by the "Big Four" and showing unwavering loyalty towards Poirot. When | 6,122,923 |

forced to choose between Poirot and his wife in that novel, he chose Poirot.
The two were an airtight team until Hastings met and married Dulcie Duveen, a beautiful music hall performer he met in "The Murder on the Links". They later emigrated to Argentina, leaving Poirot behind a "very unhappy old man".
# Ariadne Oliver.
A mystery writer who is loosely based on Agatha Christie herself.
# Miss Felicity Lemon.
Poirot's secretary, Miss Lemon, has few human weaknesses. The only two mistakes she is ever recorded making are a typing error in "Hickory Dickory Dock" and the mismailing of an electric bill. Poirot described her as ""Unbelievably ugly and incredibly efficient. Anything that she mentioned | 6,122,924 |

as worth consideration usually was worth consideration."" She is an expert on nearly everything and plans to create the perfect filing system. She once worked for the government agent-turned-philanthropist, Parker Pyne. Whether this was during one of Poirot's numerous retirements or before she entered his employ is unknown.
# Chief Inspector James Harold Japp.
Japp is an Inspector at Scotland Yard and appears in many of the stories, trying to solve the cases Poirot is working on. Japp is an outward-looking, loud and sometimes inconsiderate man, and his relationship with the bourgeois Belgian is one of the stranger aspects of Poirot's world. He first met Poirot in Belgium in 1904 during the | 6,122,925 |
6867610 | Recurring characters in the Hercule Poirot stories | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Recurring%20characters%20in%20the%20Hercule%20Poirot%20stories | Recurring characters in the Hercule Poirot stories
Abercrombie Forgery, and later that year joined forces again to hunt down a criminal known as Baron Altara. They also meet in England, where Poirot often helps Japp solve cases and lets him take the credit in return for special favours. These favours usually entail being supplied with cases that would interest him.
# George.
George (or 'Georges', as Poirot often calls him) is the faithful valet of Hercule Poirot.
In addition to these regular characters, it is noteworthy that all the gentlemen in the novels have servants; Poirot's is the most incurable snob he could find. George is a classic English valet. He first entered Poirot's employ in 1923, and did not leave his side until the 1970s, | 6,122,926 |
6867610 | Recurring characters in the Hercule Poirot stories | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Recurring%20characters%20in%20the%20Hercule%20Poirot%20stories | Recurring characters in the Hercule Poirot stories
shortly before Poirot's death. A competent, matter-of-fact man, with an extensive knowledge of the English aristocracy and absolutely no imagination, George provides a steady contrast to Hastings.
# Colonel Race.
Race is a highly intelligent ex-Army Colonel who had a stint as a leader of the counter-intelligence division of the British spy agency MI5. He is immensely rich, having inherited the fortune of Sir Lawrence Eardsley. The Colonel starred as a detective in four of Christie's books; he was introduced in "The Man in the Brown Suit", published in 1924. He featured as Hercule Poirot's good friend in "Cards on the Table" (1936) and "Death on the Nile" (1937). He also appears in "Sparkling | 6,122,927 |

Cyanide" (1945), and like his first appearance, Poirot is not a character in the novel. He is known for his patience, composure, and ability to detect facts quickly without anyone else noticing. Although rather conventional in his deductive thought processes, he has an exceptionally open mind regarding possibilities and theories, and while he is amazed by some of the deductions Poirot makes, he never doubts nor discounts them (as, for instance, Japp initially might), no matter how fantastical. "The Man in the Brown Suit" is perhaps the only novel in which the emotional side of Colonel Race's nature has been given consideration. It gives depth to his personality.

the Nile" Colonel Race was played by David Niven. In the same book's 2004 TV adaptation for the television series "Agatha Christie's Poirot", he was played by James Fox. As Fox was unavailable for the 2006 adaptation of "Cards on the Table" the character was replaced by the similar character "Colonel Hughes", played by Robert Pugh. ITV's adaptation of "The Clocks" makes the character of Colin Lamb, strongly implied in the book to be the son of Superintendent Battle, into the offspring of Colonel Race. He is also mentioned in the adaptation of "Third Girl".
In the BBC Radio 4 adaptations of "Death on the Nile" (1997) and "Cards on the Table" (2002), Race was played by Donald Sinden.

.
In the BBC Radio 4 adaptations of "Death on the Nile" (1997) and "Cards on the Table" (2002), Race was played by Donald Sinden.
His first name is given as "Johnnie" by a minor character in "Sparkling Cyanide". In the film of "Death on the Nile", he is called "Johnny". The 2002 ITV adaptation of "Sparkling Cyanide" featured Oliver Ford Davies as "Colonel Geoffrey Reece".
# Countess Vera Rossakoff.
Countess Vera Rossakoff is the only woman with whom Hercule Poirot has ever admitted to being in love. The countess' true name is a mystery. She appears in only one novel, "The Big Four", and two short stories, "The Double Clue" and "The Capture of Cerberus" ("The Labours of Hercules" series). | 6,122,930 |

2006 Washington, D.C. mayoral election
The 2006 Washington, D.C. mayoral election also known as 2006 District of Columbia mayoral election determined the successor to two-term mayor Anthony A. Williams, who did not run for re-election. The Democratic primary was held on September 12, 2006, and the general election was held on November 7, 2006. The winner of both was Adrian Fenty, the representative for Ward 4 on the Washington, D.C. City Council. He took office on January 2, 2007, becoming the sixth directly elected mayor since the establishment of home rule in the District, and — at 35 — the youngest elected mayor of a major American city in U.S. history.

6867595 | Shire of Mareeba | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Shire%20of%20Mareeba | Shire of Mareeba
Shire of Mareeba
The Shire of Mareeba is a local government area at the base of Cape York Peninsula in Far North Queensland, inland from Cairns. The shire, administered from the town of Mareeba, covered an area of , and existed as a local government entity from 1879 until 2008, when it amalgamated with several councils in the Atherton Tableland area to become the Tablelands Region.
On 20 March 2013, Mareeba residents voted in favour of a proposal to reverse the amalgamation and to re-establish Mareeba Shire. The new Mareeba Shire was re-established on 1 January 2014.
# History.
The Woothakata Division, based in the mining town of Thornborough on the Hodgkinson goldfield, was created on 11 | 6,122,941 |
6867595 | Shire of Mareeba | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Shire%20of%20Mareeba | Shire of Mareeba
November 1879 as one of 74 divisions around Queensland under the "Divisional Boards Act 1879" with a population of 1836. Woothakata is a Wakaman and Kuku Djungan Aboriginal word which describes the way (the journey) they travelled to Ngarrabullgan/Mount Mulligan, an important meeting place. The name Woothakata lives on as the name of a property at Chillagoe.
On 3 September 1881, the Tinaroo Division was created under the "Divisional Boards Act 1879" out of parts of the Cairns, Hinchinbrook and Woothakata Divisions.
On 18 May 1889, the tin-mining area at Stannary Hills and Irvinebank and its hinterland in and around the Walsh River (an area of 4110 sq miles) were severed from Woothakata Division | 6,122,942 |
6867595 | Shire of Mareeba | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Shire%20of%20Mareeba | Shire of Mareeba
to create Walsh Division.
On 20 December 1890, part of the Tinaroo Division was excised to create the new Barron Division, closer to Cairns.
With the passage of the "Local Authorities Act 1902", the Divisions of Woothakata, Tinaroo and Barron became Shires of Woothaka, Tinaroo and Barron on 31 March 1903.
On 16 December 1908, a small part of Shire of Woothakata was transferred to the Shire of Walsh, which was then split with one part being proclaimed the new Shire of Chillagoe, based at Chillagoe.
In 1919, Woothakata's seat of administration moved to Mareeba. Thornborough had declined steadily in importance, having a population of 58 in 1921 and 29 in 1933. The same year, on 20 December, | 6,122,943 |
6867595 | Shire of Mareeba | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Shire%20of%20Mareeba | Shire of Mareeba
the Shire of Barron was abolished, with its area being split between the Shire of Mulgrave and Shire of Woothakata.
On 25 June 1932, the Shires of Walsh and Chillagoe merged into the Shire of Woothakata, which was then organised into six divisions, of which the former Shires of Chillagoe and Walsh formed the greater part of the sixth division. Division 3 had 2 representatives and all the other divisions had only one representative.
On 20 December 1947, the Shire of Woothakata was renamed the Shire of Mareeba.
A new Mareeba Shire Hall was built in Mareeba in 1961; it was added to the Queensland Heritage Register on 11 October 2013.
On 22 March 1995, parts of the Shires of Mareeba and Douglas | 6,122,944 |
6867595 | Shire of Mareeba | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Shire%20of%20Mareeba | Shire of Mareeba
and the whole of the abolished Shire of Mulgrave were added to the City of Cairns.
On 15 March 2008, under the "Local Government (Reform Implementation) Act 2007" passed by the Parliament of Queensland on 10 August 2007, the Shire of Mareeba merged with the Shires of Atherton, Eacham and Herberton to form the Tablelands Region.
In 2012, a proposal was made to de-amalgamate the Shire of Mareeba from the Tablelands Region. On 9 March 2013, the citizens of the former Mareeba shire voted in a referendum to de-amalgamate. The shire was re-established on 1 January 2014.

Astrodome (aeronautics)
An astrodome is a hemispherical transparent dome fitted in the cabin roof of an aircraft to allow the use of a sextant during astro-navigation.
Before the introduction of electronic means of navigation the only way to fix an aircraft's position at night was by taking star sights using a sextant, as had marine navigators for hundreds of years aboard ships. This requires a 360-degree view of the horizon; the astrodome was devised to allow this.
Astrodomes were prominent on many Royal Air Force (RAF) and Commonwealth-operated multi-engined aircraft of the Second World War, and on foreign aircraft ordered by them for their use, such as the Liberator and Dakota, as the RAF | 6,122,950 |
6867743 | Astrodome (aeronautics) | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Astrodome%20(aeronautics) | Astrodome (aeronautics)
performed many of its operations and other flying at night.
Similar hemispherical-shape domes were also installed on some World War II heavy bombers to allow sighting of defensive, remotely operated gun turrets. They were featured on the Heinkel He 177A, with a single forward dorsal dome to aim its remotely operated FDL 131 twin MG 131 dorsal turret, and the complex sighting system for the American B-29 Superfortress heavy bomber's quartet of remote gun turrets.
# Later use on ocean-racing yachts.
In the 1950s and 60's, the use of astrodomes in aircraft was gradually phased out as radionavigation and ground plotting radars took over. Astrodomes did, however, enjoy a second career on ocean | 6,122,951 |
6867743 | Astrodome (aeronautics) | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Astrodome%20(aeronautics) | Astrodome (aeronautics)
onavigation and ground plotting radars took over. Astrodomes did, however, enjoy a second career on ocean racing yachts (especially in singlehanded racing).
Eric Tabarly, record-breaking winner of the 1964 OSTAR single-handed transatlantic race, and former French Aéronavale (Fleet air arm) pilot, had fitted his revolutionary lightweight ketch-rigged racer "Pen Duick II" with an astrodome scavenged from a Shorts Sunderland decommissioned aircraft.
Not only could he use it for sextant astro-navigation, but it provided a sheltered place from which he could steer his yacht during a stormy race. This was quite useful, as his wind-vane autopilot (also of aeronautical technology) had broken down. | 6,122,952 |

Nathan Beauregard
Nathan Beauregard, real name Nathan Bogard, (*1887, 1893 or 1896 in Colbert, Mississippi; died May 15, 1970 in Memphis, Tennessee) was an African-American blues singer and guitarist.
# Biography.
Born blind, Beauregard soon became a musician, his repertoire consisting of songs of the pre-blues era and dance tunes like "Spoonful" and "Pretty Bunch of Daisies". When he was in his thirties, in the times of the "race recordings" of the 1920s, he saw many blues musicians with minor talent make a fortune as a recording artist while he himself was not offered such a chance.
During the folk and blues revival of the 1960s Beauregard was "discovered" in Memphis by Bill Barth, who | 6,122,954 |

uregard was "discovered" in Memphis by Bill Barth, who convinced him to work as a musician again. In the short time between his "discovery" in 1968 and his death in 1970, he played at various folk and blues festivals (e.g. the 1968 Memphis Country Blues Festival, which has been recorded on the Sire and Blue Horizon labels) and on a number of compilation albums on such labels as Blue Thumb, Arhoolie und Adelphi.

6867678 | Counties of Northern Ireland | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Counties%20of%20Northern%20Ireland | Counties of Northern Ireland
Counties of Northern Ireland
The counties of Northern Ireland were the principal local government divisions of Northern Ireland from its creation in 1921 until the Local Government Act (Northern Ireland) 1972, when their governmental features were abolished and replaced with twenty-six unitary authorities.
In total Northern Ireland consisted of six counties: Antrim, Armagh, Down, Fermanagh, Londonderry and Tyrone. These form two-thirds of the historical province of Ulster. The number has been used in the designation "The Six Counties" as an Irish-nationalist alternative name for Northern Ireland.
# Background of the counties.
The English administration in Ireland in the years following the | 6,122,956 |
6867678 | Counties of Northern Ireland | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Counties%20of%20Northern%20Ireland | Counties of Northern Ireland
Anglo-Norman invasion of Ireland created counties as the major subdivisions of an Irish province. This process lasted a period from the 13th to 17th centuries, however the number and shape of the counties that would form the future Northern Ireland would not be defined until the Flight of the Earls allowed the shiring of Ulster from 1604.
Though the present-day counties of Northern Ireland were planned in the early 16th century, some had already existed in one form or another beforehand although their boundaries would be adjusted. Each county would have an associated county town, with county courts of Quarter Sessions and Assizes.
## Origins.
The counties of Antrim and Down have their origins | 6,122,957 |
6867678 | Counties of Northern Ireland | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Counties%20of%20Northern%20Ireland | Counties of Northern Ireland
in the Norman Earldom of Ulster which was based on John de Courcy's conquest of Ulaid. Between the late 13th and early 14th centuries it was organised into administrative shires based around centres of Norman power such as Antrim, Carrickfergus, and Newtownards.
The Bruce invasion (1315–18) saw the devastation of the Earldom of Ulster and its overlordship over the neighbouring Gaelic districts. With the murder of the last de Burgh earl in 1333, the resulting Gaelic recovery eroded the earldoms territory until by the 15th century only the areas of Carrickfergus and coastal enclaves in Down remained.
It was not until the reign of Queen Elizabeth I that Ulster would be shired into more counties, | 6,122,958 |
6867678 | Counties of Northern Ireland | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Counties%20of%20Northern%20Ireland | Counties of Northern Ireland
based largely on the boundaries of existing lordships. In 1584, Lord Deputy of Ireland Sir John Perrott created the following counties in what is now Northern Ireland: Armagh; Coleraine; Fermanagh; and Tyrone. Carrickfergus would retain its status as a county town until 1777 when it was merged with County Antrim.
# Baronies.
Each county was divided into a number of baronies, a midway between a county and a parish. Baronies are now obsolete administrative units, partially derived from the territory of an Irish chieftain. By the time the process of turning local Irish kingdoms into baronies occurred throughout the whole of Ulster by the early 17th century as part of the Plantation of Ulster, | 6,122,959 |
6867678 | Counties of Northern Ireland | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Counties%20of%20Northern%20Ireland | Counties of Northern Ireland
it was already being used for taxation and administrative purposes.
Baronies were used for many records from the 17th to 19th centuries such as: the Civil Survey; Petty's Down Survey; the Books of Survey and Distribution; the 19th century valuation books and census returns. The Grand Jury representment system would also be based on the barony.
# Government and modern usage.
The counties were also used as the administrative unit of local government introduced in Ireland under the 1898 Local Government Act along with county boroughs. In regards to Northern Ireland the cities of Belfast and Londonderry became county boroughs. The counties and county boroughs in terms of governance were abolished | 6,122,960 |
6867678 | Counties of Northern Ireland | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Counties%20of%20Northern%20Ireland | Counties of Northern Ireland
in Northern Ireland in 1972 and replaced with twenty-six unitary councils, many of which cross county boundaries.
The six administrative counties and two county boroughs remain in use for some purposes, including car number plates. The six counties were also used as postal counties by the Royal Mail for sorting purposes until their abolition in 1996. Outside government, the counties are sometimes used for cultural purposes, for example in the Gaelic Athletic Association.
# Lieutenancy areas.
Like the rest of the United Kingdom, Northern Ireland is divided into lieutenancy areas (see map on right). These are areas that have an appointed Lord Lieutenant—the representative of the British monarch. | 6,122,961 |
6867678 | Counties of Northern Ireland | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Counties%20of%20Northern%20Ireland | Counties of Northern Ireland
Northern Ireland has eight lieutenancy areas: Antrim, Armagh, Down, Fermanagh, Tyrone, County of Londonderry, City of Londonderry, and City of Belfast. These are contiguous with the former six counties and two county boroughs, established by the 1898 Local Government Act.
# Former counties.
Former counties which formed part of the six modern counties of Northern Ireland:
- County Coleraine formed from the territory of the O'Cahans in 1584 by Queen Elizabeth I, formed the basis of modern County Londonderry.
- Carrickfergus was formerly a county of itself, it extended further than the modern borough of Carrickfergus. It was merged into County Antrim in 1777.
- Antrim, Blathewyc, Cragferus, | 6,122,962 |
6867678 | Counties of Northern Ireland | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Counties%20of%20Northern%20Ireland | Counties of Northern Ireland
nty of itself, it extended further than the modern borough of Carrickfergus. It was merged into County Antrim in 1777.
- Antrim, Blathewyc, Cragferus, Coulrath, del Art, Dun, Ladcathel and Twescard, the seven counties that formed the Earldom of Ulster in 1333.
- In 1549, Ulster itself was called a county containing the baronies of Arde, Bentry, Dondalk, Dufferens, Gallagh, Grenecastle, Kroghfergous, Lacayall, Maulyn, Twscard, and Glyns.

Blayney started his career with Premiership side Southampton and was loaned out to Stockport County, but was cut short by a broken finger. He also he had a spell at Bournemouth on loan. He made his début for Southampton in May 2004, receiving a high amount of praise. Blayney also won Sky Sports save of the season after saving an Alan Shearer header in May 2004 on his Premier League debut. The match at St Mary's ended in a 3–3 draw. Blayney also played in the following 2–1 defeat at Charlton. Blayney would play two | 6,122,966 |

Blayney, who was then behind Antti Niemi and Paul Smith in the team's pecking order went on loan to Rushden & Diamonds and Brighton & Hove Albion. Brighton tried to sign Blayney on a permanent basis in 2005, but could not afford the transfer fee Southampton were asking.

debut with a clean sheet as Bohs beat Bray Wanderers 3–0 on 31 August. He failed to gain the number 1 shirt from Brian Murphy though and was released at the end of the season.
On 15 March 2008, Blayney signed for Ballymena United, although he was unable to play for the Braidmen until the 2008–09 season. In June 2009, Blayney signed a three-year contract for Linfield.

end of the 2013–14 NIFL Premiership season to sign for 2013–14 Irish Cup winners Glenavon. Despite a strong start to the season, Blayney later lost his starting spot at Glenavon to number two goalkeeper James McGrath, and left the club for a second spell at Ballymena United on 5 May 2015.
Blayney initially started his second spell at Ballymena as the number one choice, following the departure of Australian goalkeeper Tim Allen. However, the arrival of former Linfield manager David Jeffrey saw his game time limited, with Linfield loanee Ross Glendinning usurping Blayney as number one during the 2016–17 season. The return of Tim Allen to the club meant that Blayney was free to talk to other clubs. | 6,122,970 |

Ki Hajar Dewantara
Raden Mas Soewardi Soerjaningrat (EYD: Suwardi Suryaningrat); from 1922 also known as Ki Hadjar Dewantara (EYD: Ki Hajar Dewantara), which is also written as Ki Hajar Dewantoro to reflect its Javanese sounds; May 2, 1889 in Pakualaman – April 26, 1959 in Yogyakarta, was a leading Indonesian independence movement activist, writer, columnist, politician, and pioneer of education for native Indonesians in Dutch colonial times. He founded the Taman Siswa school, an institution that provided education for indigenous commoners, which otherwise was limited to the Javanese aristocracy and the Dutch colonials.
He was honored as a National Hero of Indonesia by Indonesia's first president, | 6,122,977 |
6867750 | Ki Hajar Dewantara | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ki%20Hajar%20Dewantara | Ki Hajar Dewantara
Sukarno, on November 28, 1959.
# Early life.
Soewardi was born in the Javanese aristocracy, his family belonged to the royal house of Pakualaman. He was one of Prince Paku Alam III's grandsons through his father, GPH Soerjaningrat. Thanks to his family's "priyayi" (Javanese nobility) background, he was able to access the colonial public education, a luxury that was unattainable by most of common population in the Indies. He graduated from basic education in ELS (Dutch Primary School). Then he continued his study at STOVIA, a medical school for native students. However, he failed to graduate because of illness.
Later he worked as a journalist and wrote for many newspapers, including "Sediotomo", | 6,122,978 |
6867750 | Ki Hajar Dewantara | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ki%20Hajar%20Dewantara | Ki Hajar Dewantara
"Midden Java", "De Expres", "Oetoesan Indies", "Kaoem Moeda", "Tjahaja Timoer" and "Poesara". He was also a contributor to "Kebangoenan", a nationalist newspaper owned by the Dutch-educated jurist and politician Phoa Liong Gie. During Soewardi's career in printed media, he was considered a talented and accomplished writer. His style of writing is popular, communicative and yet imbued with idealism for freedom and anti-colonialism sentiment.
# Movement Activist.
Besides being tenacious as a young reporter, Soewardi was also active in social and political organizations. Since the establishment of Boedi Oetomo in 1908, he was active in their propaganda service to socialize and promote public | 6,122,979 |
6867750 | Ki Hajar Dewantara | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ki%20Hajar%20Dewantara | Ki Hajar Dewantara
awareness of Indonesia as a national unity (especially in Java). He also organized Boedi Oetomo's first congress in Yogyakarta.
Young Soewardi was also a member of the "Insulinde", a multi-ethnic organization that was dominated by Indo activists. This organization was advocating for self-rule in the Dutch East Indies. One of the prominent figures in this organization was Ernest Douwes Dekker. Later, Soewardi was invited to join the party, when Douwes Dekker established the " Indische Partij".
# "If I were a Dutchman".
In 1913, the Dutch East Indies government sought to collect money to fund the centennial anniversary of Dutch independence from France back in 1813. The donations were drawn | 6,122,980 |
6867750 | Ki Hajar Dewantara | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ki%20Hajar%20Dewantara | Ki Hajar Dewantara
from Dutch East Indies citizens, which also include "bumiputera" (indigenous people). This decision has ignited critical opposition and negative reactions from pro-independence nationalists, including Soewardi. He wrote several critical columns, such as ""Een maar ook voor Allen Allen voor Een"" or "One for All, All for One". However, the most famous piece of Ki Hadjar Dewantara's column is "If I were a Dutchman" (original title: ""Als ik eens Nederlander was""), printed in "De Expres" newspaper on July 13, 1913. This article fiercely criticized the colonial government of Netherlands Indies. The citation of his writing, as followsː
Some Dutch officials doubted that this piece was actually written | 6,122,981 |
6867750 | Ki Hajar Dewantara | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ki%20Hajar%20Dewantara | Ki Hajar Dewantara
by Soewardi, because compared to his earlier writings, there are some differences in style and vocabulary. Even if it is true, that it was Soewardi's writing, they suspected that Douwes Dekker might have an actively influenced Soewardi to write in such a tone.
The colonial authorities considered Soewardi's writings that criticize the colonial government to be so subversive, sensitive and divisive that they feared they might incite a popular revolt and upset the delicate social order of the Dutch East Indies. As a consequence, Soewardi was arrested under the order of Governor General Idenburg, and sentenced to exile in Bangka Island. However, both his colleagues, Douwes Dekker and Tjipto Mangoenkoesoemo, | 6,122,982 |
6867750 | Ki Hajar Dewantara | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ki%20Hajar%20Dewantara | Ki Hajar Dewantara
protested on his behalf, and eventually in 1913, the three of them were exiled to the Netherlands instead. These three pro-independence activist figures, Soewardi, Douwes Dekker and Tjipto, were later known as the "Tiga Serangkai" or the "triad". Soewardi at that time was only 24 years old.
# Exile.
During his exile in the Netherlands, Soewardi was active in the Indonesia students' organization, the "Indische Vereeniging" (Indies Association), where he contemplated the idea of advancing science education for natives, by obtaining the European certificate, an education diploma which later became the foundation for the educational institutions he would found. In this study, Soewardi was fascinated | 6,122,983 |
6867750 | Ki Hajar Dewantara | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ki%20Hajar%20Dewantara | Ki Hajar Dewantara
by the ideas of Western education figures, such as Froebel and Montessori, as well as Indian education movement activist Santiniketan and the Tagore family. These underlying influences contributed to Soewardi's idea's for developing his own educational system.
# Taman Siswa.
In September 1919, Soewardi returned home to Java, Dutch East Indies. Immediately, he joined his brother in establishing a school in his native hometown. His educational background and his teaching experiences then proved to be useful to develop his concept for teaching in school, as he founded the " Nationaal Onderwijs Instituut Ampel" or the national college.
During the time of colonial social discrimination in the | 6,122,984 |
6867750 | Ki Hajar Dewantara | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ki%20Hajar%20Dewantara | Ki Hajar Dewantara
early 20th century, education was only made possible for the elites, the colonial Dutch people and a handful of Javanese noblemen families. Education at that time was not made available for native commoners. In July 1922, Soewardi established the Taman Siswa school in Yogyakarta, a Javanese educational movement that strove to provide education for the native population.
When he reached 40 years of age, according to the Javanese beliefs based upon Javanese calendar, he was required to change his name to ward of misfortunes that might befell upon him. Thus he choose "Ki Hadjar Dewantara" as his new name. He also scrapped the Javanese gentility title "Raden Mas" in front of his name. It was a | 6,122,985 |
6867750 | Ki Hajar Dewantara | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ki%20Hajar%20Dewantara | Ki Hajar Dewantara
gesture to demonstrate his support for social equality and his disregard for rigid social stature of Javanese society. Ki Hadjar intended to freely interact with people of all social backgrounds, and to be close to them in both body and soul.
# Tut Wuri Handayani.
Ki Hadjar Dewantara has coined a famous proverb to describe his educational ideals. Rendered in Javanese, the maxim reads: "Ing ngarso sung tulodo, ing madyo mangun karso, tut wuri handayani." Which translates: "(for those) in front should set an example, (for those) in the middle should raise the spirit, and (for those) behind should give encouragement". The proverb is used as the principle of Taman Siswa. Today, part of this maxim, | 6,122,986 |
6867750 | Ki Hajar Dewantara | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ki%20Hajar%20Dewantara | Ki Hajar Dewantara
"Tut Wuri Handayani" is used as the motto of Indonesian Ministry of Education. It was meant to describe ideal teachers, who after transmitting knowledge to their students, would stand behind their students and give them encouragements in their quest for knowledge.
# Government offices.
During the Japanese occupation, Ki Hajar's activities in the field of politics and education still continued. When the Japanese government established the People Power Center ("Pusat Tenaga Rakyat" or Putera) in 1943, Ki Hajar was appointed as one of its leaders, in addition to Sukarno, Muhammad Hatta and K.H. Mas Mansur.
In the first cabinet of the Republic of Indonesia in the 1950s, Ki Hajar Dewantara was | 6,122,987 |
6867750 | Ki Hajar Dewantara | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ki%20Hajar%20Dewantara | Ki Hajar Dewantara
appointed Indonesian Minister of Education and Culture. In 1957 he received an honorary doctorate honoris causa from Indonesia's oldest university, Gadjah Mada University.
He died in Yogyakarta on April 26, 1959 and was buried in Taman Wijaya Brata cemetery.
