Karl Logan
Karl Mojaleski (born April 28, 1965), known by his stage name Karl Logan, is an American musician, and former guitarist of the heavy metal band Manowar.
# Biography.
Logan graduated Lakeland High School near Clifford, Pennsylvania in 1982. He joined Manowar in 1994 after local band gigs in northeastern Pennsylvania with Arc Angel (which also featured a post-Twisted Sister A. J. Pero on drums for a while) and Fallen Angel featuring Ed Collins.
Logan relates in "Hell on Earth Part I" how he met Joey DeMaio by almost running him over with his motorcycle, which is how the two hit it off.
It is known that Logan is a fan of dirt biking. In 2006, he suffered an arm injury which delayed | 6,125,902 |
3528242 | Karl Logan | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Karl%20Logan | Karl Logan
Manowar's "Demons, Dragons and Warriors" tour and the release of the band's new album "Gods of War". According to sources the injury was so severe that "it could have resulted in permanent nerve damage, ending his musical career", however Logan managed to recover and has played with the band since.
Logan is also an avid builder of fine scale models. He has had various tutorial articles of detailed weathering techniques, creating dioramas and customizing parts from scratch published in FineScale Modeler magazine. Many of his models are centered on autos or military armored vehicles but he has built almost every category known.
More recently Logan has released a line of custom designed guitars | 6,125,903 |
3528242 | Karl Logan | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Karl%20Logan | Karl Logan
which are sold through Manowar's website. In 2009, Logan accepted a limited number of students one-to-one guitar lessons over Skype.
# Arrest.
On October 25, 2018, it was revealed that Logan was arrested on August 9 in Charlotte, North Carolina for allegedly possessing child pornography and was charged with six counts of third-degree exploitation of a minor. His bail was set at $35,000, which he had since bonded out. The band issued a statement shortly after saying that he would not perform with them on their last world tour. Evidence revealed that Logan was in possession of several videos depicting young girls between ages 4 and 12 years old engaging in a variety of sexual acts with unidentified | 6,125,904 |
3528242 | Karl Logan | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Karl%20Logan | Karl Logan
men. According to arrest warrants, the offenses took place between June 18 and August 2, 2018.
Logan is facing serious time in federal prison where his attorney, Brad Smith, said that he was "extremely cooperative with the investigation from the beginning, and he'll continue to do that." Smith wouldn't comment on the details of the charges; however he did say that there could be an explanation on the acts that Logan was accused of committing. Logan made his first court appearance on May 28, 2019 and was then booked into the Mecklenburg County Sheriff's Office thereafter, in which the federal magistrate judge ordered him to be held until his next hearing, which would possibly take place the | 6,125,905 |

Logan made his first court appearance on May 28, 2019 and was then booked into the Mecklenburg County Sheriff's Office thereafter, in which the federal magistrate judge ordered him to be held until his next hearing, which would possibly take place the day after. He has not entered a plea, and may not do so for months.
He was released from jail on May 30th 2019 after two days in custody and is awaiting trial

Nellie Unthank
Ellen (Nellie) Pucell Unthank (November 6, 1846 – July 21, 1915) was a Mormon pioneer, Utah settler, and amputee remembered as a symbol of pioneer endurance.
Ellen Pucell was born in Liverpool, England to Samuel Pucell and Margaret Perrin Pucell. She emigrated to Utah Territory from England with her family as a young girl, traveling with the Martin Handcart Company. During the journey her parents died, and she had to finish without them, walking most of the way without shoes. Because of the bitter cold and snow, she suffered frostbite. When she arrived in the Salt Lake Valley, her legs were amputated, using no anesthetic, below the knee. Because of the imprecise amputation, her | 6,125,907 |
3528248 | Nellie Unthank | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Nellie%20Unthank | Nellie Unthank
of the bitter cold and snow, she suffered frostbite. When she arrived in the Salt Lake Valley, her legs were amputated, using no anesthetic, below the knee. Because of the imprecise amputation, her stumps never healed and were bloody for the rest of her life. She became a symbol for courage and nobility because she did not ask for pity despite her handicap. She did laundry on her knees to help raise six children.
On April 22, 1871, she married William Unthank. She died in Cedar City, Utah at the age of 69. Jerry Anderson created a statue of her with feet that is located on the Southern Utah University campus at the former location of her home.

Ground State (Angel)
"Ground State" is episode 2 of season 4 in the television show "Angel". In this episode, Wesley, now a hardened demon-hunter/killer with his own gang, leads the search to Denza who tells them that the Axis talisman will aid him in their search for Cordelia. Meanwhile, Gwen Raiden, a young mercenary with uncontrollable electrical abilities, is also looking for the talisman at the request of her employer, a wealthy businessman with connections to Wolfram & Hart.
# Plot.
In Wisconsin, 1985, a young girl named Gwen is dropped off at Thorpe Academy by her parents. Tightly wrapped up in thick clothes Gwen is discouraged from touching and finds it difficult to fit in with the | 6,125,909 |
3528253 | Ground State (Angel) | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ground%20State%20(Angel) | Ground State (Angel)
other children. When a young boy approaches her at recess and offers her a toy car, she makes the mistake of touching him and shocking the boy with a fatal bolt of electricity.
At Cordelia's apartment, Fred packs up Cordy's things because they can't afford to keep paying the rent. As Wesley and his gang fights off two large demons, Angel arrives and tries to thank Wesley for rescuing him, and to recant his promise never to forgive him for stealing Connor. Wesley however isn't interested in Angel's apologies. Wesley thinks Cordy is still alive, but in another dimension.
Gwen, now a young woman, waltzes into a restaurant dressed in red leather, drawing the attention of all the men. She meets | 6,125,910 |
3528253 | Ground State (Angel) | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ground%20State%20(Angel) | Ground State (Angel)
a businessman named Elliot, who wants Gwen to steal the Axis for his personal collection.
Fred gives a presentation that explains the Axis of Pythia allows the user to see any person in the countless dimensions; her drawings are overshadowed by Angel's artistic abilities. They learn the Axis is located at an auction house with extensive security and gather the equipment they'll need while elsewhere, Gwen gets ready to steal the Axis herself.
Lilah and Wesley share some small talk about work while they romp around his apartment together. Gwen expertly makes her way into the building where the Axis is held but only a short distance behind her, Angel, Gunn and Fred break into the building as | 6,125,911 |
3528253 | Ground State (Angel) | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ground%20State%20(Angel) | Ground State (Angel)
well. Angel checks out the vault, but laser beams block his entrance and then a gate is dropped, completely blocking his path. Gwen drops down from the ceiling and manipulates the beams out of her way. While Angel questions who she is and her intentions, she steals the Axis and prepares to leave. Gunn shows up to help Angel while Fred triggers an alarm that encourages Gwen's fast retreat. Once the gate has been lifted out of the way, Gunn tries to grab Gwen before she gets away and instead is struck with a fatal blow by Gwen. Guilt-ridden at the thought of killing yet another innocent person, Gwen knocks Angel and a grieving Fred out of the way and shock-starts Gunn's heart.
Later, Angel runs | 6,125,912 |
3528253 | Ground State (Angel) | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ground%20State%20(Angel) | Ground State (Angel)
into Lilah while looking over Connor, who's now living outdoors with a bunch of homeless people. Angel threatens her into telling him which Wolfram & Hart client is buying the Axis of Pythia from Gwen. Gunn rests up in bed while Fred releases her feelings about the overwhelming elements of her life - Gunn's brief death and her constant responsibilities in the gang - as she yells at Gunn and finally breaks down into tears.
Angel finds Gwen on the way to deliver the Axis and the two fight. Gwen repeatedly tries to shock Angel to death, which causes his heart to beat for a moment and the two kiss. Both are surprised by the sudden life to Angel's heart and then bars cover the elevator doorway and | 6,125,913 |
3528253 | Ground State (Angel) | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ground%20State%20(Angel) | Ground State (Angel)
Elliot shows up. He explains that because of her terrible theft job, she has to be killed. He had the elevator changed so that Gwen could have no access to an electrical charge that would allow her to escape when the elevator is filled with gas.
Once the door closes, Gwen struggles not to inhale while Angel punches a hole through a thick plastic wall until Gwen can reach the wires and the two are able to escape. Angel fights with Elliot's lackeys while Gwen focuses her attention on Elliot. Angel stops her from killing him and then she lets him have the Axis. Back at the hotel, one of the rooms glows a bright gold while Gunn and Fred wait impatiently outside the closed door. Angel exits the | 6,125,914 |
3528253 | Ground State (Angel) | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ground%20State%20(Angel) | Ground State (Angel)
room, leaving a still slightly glowing Axis behind him. The three sit around the lobby and talk about what Angel saw and try to deal with her new role. Meanwhile, high up in the heavens, Cordelia watches over the three and shouts at them to free her from her "higher" life.
# Production details.
Actress Alexa Davalos says she had "5 minutes of training" from stunt coordinator Mike Massa right before filming the fight scene with Angel.
Tammy Kinsey comments on the cinematic experimentation in this episode, beginning with the close-up of Cordelia's eye that is reminiscent of the 1977 film "Powers of Ten". Abbott says that the zoom-out at the end of the episode from the hotel to a cityscape to | 6,125,915 |
3528253 | Ground State (Angel) | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ground%20State%20(Angel) | Ground State (Angel)
Cordelia "suggests the value of shifting frames of reference. Here we see the world of the story as viewers and the visual comprehension of a Higher Power simultaneously."
# Writing.
## Continuity.
- Angel mentions that he has done "a heist like this" twice before. This is probably referring to "The Shroud of Rahmon" and "Choices".
- Gunn states, "We could have gone to Vegas," a recurring suggestion from him throughout the series, foreshadowing the next episode, "The House Always Wins".
- This is the first appearance of Gwen Raiden, she also appears in "Long Day's Journey" and "Players".
## Cultural reference.
- When Gwen melts an expensive watch with her powers, she remarks "Now it's | 6,125,916 |

surrealism," a reference to the Salvador Dalí painting The Persistence of Memory.
- While climbing a wall, Gunn says "This is so much harder than it looks on "Batman"", referring to the 1960s TV series by the same name, which occasionally included campy depictions of characters seemingly scaling walls with ease.
- When Angel asks Gwen for the Axis, he describes it as an ancient, mystical relic. She finishes off this description with 'it's fun for a girl and a boy', a reference to a jingle used in television adverts for "Slinky", a classic children's toy.
- A few moments prior to Fred and Gunn's argument, Fred asks if Gunn saw Shirley MacLaine, the Academy Award winning actress, during the | 6,125,917 |

The House Always Wins
"The House Always Wins" is episode 3 of season 4 in the television show "Angel". Written by David Fury and directed by Marita Grabiak, it was originally broadcast on October 20, 2002 on the WB television network.
In "The House Always Wins", Angel Investigations takes a road trip to Las Vegas to enlist Lorne's help in returning higher being Cordelia to their dimension. While in Vegas, they learn the owner of the Tropicana Casino has been coercing Lorne into reading people's destinies, which the owner sells on the black market in a literal "futures" trading scheme. Angel falls under the influence of the house games, while back in Los Angeles Wesley tries to take advantage | 6,125,920 |

of Angel's absence to steal his clients.
# Plot.
As Angel watches Connor stake a vampire, Cordelia shouts he should focus on rescuing her from her boring life as a higher power. When Fred and Gunn confront Angel on the issues of Connor, Angel realizes he has made life difficult for his friends, and he takes them on a trip to Las Vegas.
They arrive at the Tropicana Casino, where Lorne headlines, complete with scantily clad back-up singers known as the Lornettes. Lorne entices audience members to sing along and ignores Angel and the others. As Lorne rests in his private suite, he receives a visit from his employer and casino owner, Lee DeMarco. Lorne is forced to identify the futures of the | 6,125,921 |
3528259 | The House Always Wins | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=The%20House%20Always%20Wins | The House Always Wins
people who sang in the audience. Gunn and Fred play Blackjack while Angel worries about Lorne. One of the Lornettes offers one of the singing audience members from Lorne's show, Vivian, a special chip to play in a Spin to Win game. Fred continues to worry about Angel and Lorne; they investigate Lorne's situation to help ease Fred's mind. To get past the guards at Lorne's door, Gunn has Fred dress as one of the Lornettes. Lorne takes a minute to recognize her but he is grateful to see her. He informs her Lee DeMarco is blackmailing him for his psychic abilities.
Vivian walks in a trance-like state across the casino's driveway and is nearly run over by a taxi, but Angel rescues her. He sneaks | 6,125,922 |
3528259 | The House Always Wins | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=The%20House%20Always%20Wins | The House Always Wins
into the special Spin to Win game area. Lee hands him a chip, which Angel tosses away, but it slides onto the table; when the house wins, Angel loses his destiny. Fred runs from Lorne's room and hysterically convinces the guards outside to enter the room. Lorne escapes, and the three run out into the casino to find Angel. He is playing slot machines in a zombie-like state and ask him to pose a distraction while they rescue Lorne. Angel is too entranced with his gambling to comprehend the plan. DeMarco is pleased when he receives information that Angel is a souled vampire, realizing Angel's destiny will be profitable.
Lorne confesses he tells Lee about the people with bright futures so that | 6,125,923 |
3528259 | The House Always Wins | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=The%20House%20Always%20Wins | The House Always Wins
they can be lured into the Spin and Win game. Their destinies are sucked into the chip they play and later sold on the black market. Guards spot them; to pose a distraction, Lorne sings a high-pitch noise into a microphone. After they escape, Gunn angrily assumes that Lorne told Lee about Angel. Lorne corrects him by revealing that he is being blackmailed, and if he refuses to cooperate, people will be killed. When Gunn realizes that Angel's destiny has been taken away, he returns to the casino and finds Angel at one of the slot machines. As Spencer arrives with Lorne and Fred held in the custody of his security guards, Angel resumes gambling. The rest of the group is brought into the back room, | 6,125,924 |
3528259 | The House Always Wins | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=The%20House%20Always%20Wins | The House Always Wins
where Lee orders Fred and Gunn killed and Lorne to return to his work. Meanwhile, Cordelia manipulates Angel's slot machine to win a jackpot so he can be brought into the back room with the others. Lee is angered someone won, but Angel has no explanation.
When one of the men pulls a gun on Fred, it brings out the demon in Angel. He beats up Lee's men, and during the distraction Lorne smashes the glass ball holding the chips, causing all of the destinies to return to their rightful bodies. Back in L.A., the gang is glad to be home, although Angel questions what caused his jackpot. As they head inside the hotel, they freeze when they see Cordelia standing in the middle of the lobby; she does | 6,125,925 |
3528259 | The House Always Wins | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=The%20House%20Always%20Wins | The House Always Wins
not recognize them.
# Production details.
This episode was filmed on location in Las Vegas. "We shot from six at night to six in the morning for five nights," recalls writer/producer David Fury. "It was like a movie shoot, we were real stars." The Tropicana Casino at which Lorne headlines is an actual casino on the Strip, although creative license was taken with its location and history. For example, as the group flees the guards, they exit the casino onto Fremont Street (nicknamed "Glitter Gulch"), which is miles from the actual location of the Tropicana. In addition, Elvis and Priscilla Presley had their wedding reception at the Aladdin Casino, not the Tropicana as Angel claimed. While filming | 6,125,926 |
3528259 | The House Always Wins | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=The%20House%20Always%20Wins | The House Always Wins
this episode, members of the crew took the opportunity to gamble; camera assistant Adam Ward won $10,000 in a Super Bowl bet.
There are several inside jokes hidden in this episode. During the first shot into the audience during the scene where Lorne is on stage singing, David Fury and "Angel" script supervisor Petra Jorgensen are sitting in the first row. "I'm holding a little miniature Kelly Manners," Fury says. One of the scrolling banners in the soul-trading room reads DEAL WITH DISNEY TO RUN NEW ABC SERIES, referring to co-creator David Greenwalt, who left "Angel" earlier that year to produce "Miracles".
## Writing.
Writer/producer David Fury explains on the DVD commentary that early | 6,125,927 |
3528259 | The House Always Wins | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=The%20House%20Always%20Wins | The House Always Wins
on, this episode emotionally establishes the characters, reminding viewers that Connor - although not integral to the story - is indeed "Angel Jr."
The scene in which Wesley has phone sex with Lilah was written by creator Joss Whedon when the episode came in short. Actor Alexis Denisof, who plays Wesley, explains that throughout this season his character is "flirting with and investigating the dark side of himself. He's looking at his relationships with all the people and with Angel, and he's definitely looking at his whole purpose and trying to figure out how he wants to be. There are going to be some things that really surprise the audience, that they'd never expect of Wesley."
In an essay | 6,125,928 |
3528259 | The House Always Wins | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=The%20House%20Always%20Wins | The House Always Wins
linking themes in "Angel" to classic literature, Joshua Sherman points out that the motif of the stolen soul is dealt with elsewhere in mythology, such as the Soul Cage in Cornwall folklore, or Pakistani stories in which caged birds represent souls.
## Acting.
- Andy Hallett, who played Lorne, said this episode was his "favorite-favorite-favorite!" because the cast and crew got to go on location to Las Vegas. He said, "I've always wanted to have like a Vegas show, so it's like a real Vegas show...except that all the people sitting in the audience were getting paid to be there."
- Amy Acker had to dress as a Lornette for the scene in which she helps Lorne escape; Hallett says Acker kept joking, | 6,125,929 |
3528259 | The House Always Wins | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=The%20House%20Always%20Wins | The House Always Wins
"Andy, I have to overact and act bad - can you give me any tips?"
## Arc significance.
- Cordelia finally returns from the higher plane without her memory. Her return plays a major role in the rise of Jasmine.
- Lorne returns with Angel and co. to Los Angeles, after leaving at the end of Season 3.
## Cultural references.
- Name-dropping: Angel comments on his former friendships with Bugsy Siegel and the Rat Pack, and the fact that two members of the Blue Man Group are demons. He also attended Elvis and Priscilla Presley's wedding.
## Music.
- Actor Andy Hallett, who portrays Lorne, sings three songs in the episode—"It's Not Easy Being Green", "Lady Marmalade" and "Viva Las Vegas".

# Reception and reviews.
This episode was criticized for being a "throwaway" episode, serving mostly as a plot device to get Lorne and Cordelia back into the series, and for its "thinly veiled" and heavy-handed allegory using magic to show how people can lose their dreams and ambitions by throwing money away in the casinos. | 6,125,931 |

3528272 | Supersymmetry (Angel) | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Supersymmetry%20(Angel) | Supersymmetry (Angel)
Supersymmetry (Angel)
"Supersymmetry" is episode 5 of season 4 in the television show "Angel". Written by Elizabeth Craft and Sarah Fain and directed by Bill L. Norton, it was originally broadcast on November 3, 2002 on the WB network.
# Plot.
Fred's article on superstring theory is published in an academic journal, and she is asked to present it at a physics symposium by her old college professor Seidel. Her presentation is interrupted when a dimensional portal opens and snake-like creatures emerge to kill her. Angel had spied Lilah during the speech and at first thinks she is behind it, but she was simply keeping an eye on Wesley.
Gunn and Angel suspect another member of the audience, a | 6,125,938 |
3528272 | Supersymmetry (Angel) | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Supersymmetry%20(Angel) | Supersymmetry (Angel)
comic book fanatic who seemed to be expecting the portal's appearance, but it turns out he's just following stories of strange disappearances and reading about Angel on internet forums.
Fred learns that Professor Seidel is the one responsible and that he was the one who sent Fred into the Pylea dimension six years earlier. He felt Fred and other missing colleagues were competing for his job. Against Angel and Gunn's advice, Fred pursues vengeance against her former mentor. She asks for Wesley's help. When she is almost sucked into a portal opened by a text message from Seidel, Wesley agrees to help.
Meanwhile, Cordelia is staying with Connor at his vast empty loft. He trains her to slay vampires | 6,125,939 |
3528272 | Supersymmetry (Angel) | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Supersymmetry%20(Angel) | Supersymmetry (Angel)
while romance blossoms.
Angel confronts Seidel (largely to protect him from Fred's vengeance), but Seidel releases a demon from a portal to attack Angel. Seidel tries to escape, but he encounters Fred. She opens her own portal, intending to send him to a hell dimension as punishment. As he is being sucked in, Gunn arrives. When he is unable to convince Fred to close the portal, Gunn snaps Seidel's neck and throws him into the portal. Fred and Gunn lie to Angel that Seidel fell victim to his own portal meant for Fred.
Connor arrives at the Hyperion Hotel to pick up Cordelia's things because they have decided to live together. Connor and Cordelia battle a common vampire. Elated when she stakes | 6,125,940 |
3528272 | Supersymmetry (Angel) | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Supersymmetry%20(Angel) | Supersymmetry (Angel)
it, Cordelia impulsively kisses Connor. Connor embraces her, but Cordelia is uncomfortable and pulls away. She explains that she still doesn't know who she is or where she belongs. Connor angrily realizes that she's going back to Angel.
Cordelia arrives at the hotel to talk to Angel. She tells him that she is the same person she was before her amnesia, and that person doesn't need protecting. After Angel promises not to lie to her anymore, she asks him if they were in love.
# Production details.
## Arc significance.
- This episode begins the breakup of Fred and Gunn's relationship, and indicates Connor's growing affection for Cordelia as the two share a kiss.
- In addition, Wesley and Lilah's | 6,125,941 |
3528272 | Supersymmetry (Angel) | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Supersymmetry%20(Angel) | Supersymmetry (Angel)
complicated relationship is further developed, as she brings him a gift and realizes that he is still attracted to Fred.
- Angel demonstrates that he has photographic memory when he re-creates the auditorium environment with chairs and is able to recall exactly where every lecture attendee was seated and how each one responded to the portal.
- Despite the story originally suggesting it was simply a coincidence that Fred came upon the book, it's revealed that Fred's college professor Seidel was responsible for her being sent to Pylea, as well as several other students. A later episode, "Inside Out," implies Seidel himself was manipulated by the demon Skip as part of a long-term plan to assemble | 6,125,942 |
3528272 | Supersymmetry (Angel) | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Supersymmetry%20(Angel) | Supersymmetry (Angel)
the members of Angel Investigations.
## Cultural references.
- The Incredible Hulk: After Angel threatens Lilah she responds with "Yeah, yeah, 'Hulk smash'" a common phrase from the Hulk comic books.
- Daredevil, Elektra, and Bullseye: During the scene with comic book reader, Jared, Gunn references Bullseye killing Elektra in "Daredevil #181".
- Dark Horse Comics: During the same scene, Jared is wearing a Thwack! shirt, the comic book fan says, "we're kinda crushing the Dark Horses" when Gunn is pushing him up against the comic book rack, on which Dark Horse comics such as "Usagi Yojimbo" are visible. Angel is reading from a "Ghost" comic, which is published by Dark Horse. Dark Horse had | 6,125,943 |

is published by Dark Horse. Dark Horse had published the first series of and currently publishes the "Buffy" Season 8 series.
- The girl, the cat and the peanut butter: A reference to a well-known urban myth, although the myth usually involves a dog, not a cat.
- Chicago Cubs: Fred mentions former Cubs stars Sammy Sosa and Nomar Garciaparra, although when the episode originally aired, Garciaparra was still with the Boston Red Sox.
- Fred complains that people want her to be "all sweetness and light". This is an allusion to P.G. Wodehouse's Uncle Fred's stories.

Gaudineer Scenic Area
The Gaudineer Scenic Area (GSA) is a scenic area and National Natural Landmark in the Monongahela National Forest (MNF). It is situated just north of Gaudineer Knob of Shavers Mountain on the border of Randolph and Pocahontas Counties, West Virginia, USA, about northwest of the town of Durbin.
# Description.
The GSA is located in the Greenbrier Ranger District of the MNF. It lies near the crest of Shavers Mountain immediately north of Gaudineer Knob, the mountain's highest peak at . The Scenic Area itself is at about . Its total land area is and approximately of the area is classified as virgin red spruce forest. Trees in this section range up to in diameter at chest | 6,125,945 |
3528260 | Gaudineer Scenic Area | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Gaudineer%20Scenic%20Area | Gaudineer Scenic Area
height and are upwards of 300 years old. The remaining have only been subjected to selective timber harvesting, mostly for the task of removing broken limbs. The GSA contains—in addition to red spruce—excellent first and second-growth specimens of several native hardwoods, including red maple, sugar maple, yellow birch, and beech. Forest Service authorities estimate the total wood volume of the tract at .
# History.
The area surrounding the GSA was thoroughly clear-cut between about 1900 and 1920 by lumbermen of the West Virginia Pulp and Paper Company, based at Cass. Maurice Brooks described the circumstances whereby a portion of the virgin forest was spared in his classic book on Appalachian | 6,125,946 |
3528260 | Gaudineer Scenic Area | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Gaudineer%20Scenic%20Area | Gaudineer Scenic Area
natural history:
Some years before the Civil War a speculating land company bought a tract of on the slope of Shavers Mountain. Their tract fronted for about seven miles [11 km] along the eastern side of the mountain. To survey and mark their holdings the company hired a crew of men who must have found rough going in this wilderness. The crew did a good job, but its chief forgot one thing – the fact that a compass needle points to magnetic, not true north. In this area the angle of declination is about four degrees, a significant source of error on a seven-mile [11 km] front ... An experienced Virginia surveyor, in checking the data, discovered the error but said nothing about it. Presently, | 6,125,947 |
3528260 | Gaudineer Scenic Area | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Gaudineer%20Scenic%20Area | Gaudineer Scenic Area
however, when the sale was being concluded and the deeds recorded, he brought the error to light, and under a sort of "doctrine of vacancy" claimed the wedge of land left by a corrected survey. His title was established, and he and his heirs found themselves owner of a seven-mile strip of forest, aggregating almost . While timber above and below the wedge was cut, this narrow holding was undisturbed. Its thickest end, a fringe of tall spruces on the near horizon, is just east of Gaudineer Tower. From these trees came seed to produce a new forest, a happy result of a hundred-year-old mistake.
The tract was eventually purchased by the Forest Service at the insistence of former MNF Supervisor | 6,125,948 |
3528260 | Gaudineer Scenic Area | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Gaudineer%20Scenic%20Area | Gaudineer Scenic Area
the insistence of former MNF Supervisor Arthur A. Wood, who believed that future generations should know what an Appalachian spruce stand was like.
In October 1964 the Regional Forester designated this area as a Scenic Area and the Forest Service began to manage it as such. In December 1974 the GSA was designated a National Natural Landmark for its exceptional value. In May 1983 it was registered by the Society of American Foresters as an outstanding example of a vegetative community in a near natural condition dedicated for scientific and educational purposes.

3528307 | Parametric Stereo | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Parametric%20Stereo | Parametric Stereo
Parametric Stereo
Parametric Stereo (PS) is lossy audio compression algorithm and a feature and an Audio Object Type (AOT) defined and used in MPEG-4 Part 3 (MPEG-4 Audio) to further enhance efficiency in low bandwidth stereo media. Advanced Audio Coding Low Complexity (AAC LC) combined with Spectral Band Replication (SBR) and Parametric Stereo (PS) was defined as HE-AAC v2. An HE-AAC v1 decoder will only give mono sound when decoding an HE-AAC v2 bitstream. Parametric Stereo performs sparse coding in the spatial domain, somewhat similar to what SBR does in the frequency domain.
# AAC HE v2.
An AAC HE v2 bitstream is obtained by downmixing the stereo audio to mono at the encoder along with | 6,125,950 |
3528307 | Parametric Stereo | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Parametric%20Stereo | Parametric Stereo
2-3 kbit/s of side info (the Parametric Stereo information) in order to describe the spatial intensity stereo generation and ambience regeneration at the decoder. By having the Parametric Stereo side info along with the mono audio stream, the decoder (player) can regenerate a faithful spatial approximation of the original stereo panorama at very low bitrates.
# One channel.
Because only one audio channel is transmitted, along with the parametric side info, a 24 kbit/s coded audio signal with Parametric Stereo will be substantially improved in quality, compared to a discretely stereo coded audio signal coded with conventional means. Thus, the additional bitrate spent on the single mono channel | 6,125,951 |
3528307 | Parametric Stereo | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Parametric%20Stereo | Parametric Stereo
stereo coded audio signal coded with conventional means. Thus, the additional bitrate spent on the single mono channel (combined with some PS side info) will improve the perceived quality substantially of the audio compared to a standard stereo stream at similar bitrate.
# Constraints.
However, this technique is only useful at the lowest bitrates (approx. 16 - 48 kbit/s) to give a good stereo impression, so while it can improve perceived quality at very low bitrates, it generally does not achieve transparency, since simulating the stereo dynamics of the audio with the technique is limited and generally deteriorates perceived quality regardless of the bitrate.

Spin the Bottle (Angel)
"Spin the Bottle" is episode 6 of season 4 in the television show "Angel". Written and directed by series creator Joss Whedon, it was originally broadcast on November 10, 2002 on the WB television network. In "Spin the Bottle", Lorne performs a magic spell on Cordelia to help her regain her memory, but instead the spell causes all the Angel Investigations members to revert to their teenage personae.
# Plot.
After his rendition of "The Way We Were", Lorne addresses an unseen lounge audience. In an attempt to restore Cordelia's memory, Lorne obtains a bottle containing a memory-restoration spell, which Cordelia is eager to try. Wesley arrives, having been asked to help | 6,125,953 |

with the spell, and has an awkward meeting with Fred. She vaguely informs him that her mission was completed, as Gunn realizes that Wesley helped Fred try to kill her professor. When he confronts Wesley, he also threatens Wes to not pursue Fred, but Wes tries to dismiss the issue. Gunn asks what happened to Wesley. He reminds Gunn that "I had my throat cut and all my friends abandoned me." The gang hold hands in a circle around the bottle as it starts to spin. The spell disorients everyone; Lorne passes out and the others stumble about the lobby as if very high. Cordelia accidentally smashes the bottle with her boot. All present are mentally regressed to the age of 17: Cordelia when she was | 6,125,954 |

the most popular girl at Sunnydale High, Wesley believes he is still a student at the Watcher's Academy, Gunn is once again a rebellious street kid, Fred is transformed into a younger and insecure girl who likes marijuana; and Angel has reverted to his teenaged pre-vampire self — an Irishman named Liam (he was not sired until age 26). While Liam wonders what happened to his Irish accent, Gunn and Wesley butt heads on plans. When Wesley tries to demonstrate his toughness with a karate demonstration, he unintentionally activates the stake weapon up his sleeve. Gunn and Fred find Lorne passed out behind the counter, and are shocked to see a demon. Meanwhile, Connor saves a young woman from two | 6,125,955 |

vampires. The woman offers her body in repayment, but only if he pays.
Back at the hotel, Wesley duct tapes Lorne to the seat in the lobby while arguing with Gunn over whether to cut Lorne's head off or torture him for information. When Cordelia asks why they're not freaking out about wooden stakes or the sight of a green man with horns, Wesley and Gunn both reveal that vampires and demons are real and they both have experience with them. Fred examines an unconscious Lorne while Wesley shares his theory that they're being kept in the hotel with a vampire as a test. They all start to wonder why they don't look 17, and collectively decide to hunt for the vampire that will supposedly set them | 6,125,956 |

free once they kill it. Cordelia and Angel team up and go one way while the other three head in the other direction. Angel struggles to adjust to this strange world that is hundreds of years beyond his life. He and Cordelia sit on the bed, and after apologizing for acting so "womanish", Cordelia comforts him, and, feeling his muscles, begins to flirt with him. Angel vamps out and realizes he is a vampire and he will be killed if the gang finds out.
Angel tries to leave the hotel, but panics when he spots the cars on the street and rushes back inside. As the group regathers in the lobby, Wesley introduces a new theory: the vampire may be one of them. He passes a cross around the group, but when | 6,125,957 |

it finally reaches Angel, he manages to hide his smoking hand until a distraction develops. Lorne wakes up, his memory unaffected, and identifies Angel as a vampire. Angel punches Lorne, knocking him out again. A fight breaks out between Angel, Wesley and Gunn, and the girls run in separate directions. Angel catches Cordelia, who screams loudly, drawing a lurking Connor out of the shadows. Angel rants to Connor about fathers as the two fight, while in the lobby, Lorne convinces Fred to release him, and he mixes together a concoction to restore their memories.
After treating the others, Lorne puts a touch of the mixture on Cordy's tongue. She pauses and then runs off. Lorne finishes up his story | 6,125,958 |

at the lounge: describing what really happened was she was struck with a vision of a terrifying demon; Cordelia reveals to Angel that she remembers everything, and confirms that before she lost her memory she was in love with him. Lorne then walks off and the camera reveals an empty Lounge.
# Production details.
Writer/director Joss Whedon says this episode grew out of his desire to see Wesley returned to the "bumbling moron" of the past. "We were reminiscing about the days when he was a complete idiot, and so we thought we wanted to see old-school Wesley but also cool, new-school Wesley," Whedon explains. Although the regression to a comedic figure contrasts his new, darker persona, Wesley | 6,125,959 |
3528293 | Spin the Bottle (Angel) | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Spin%20the%20Bottle%20(Angel) | Spin the Bottle (Angel)
still exhibits heroism during this episode, which is in line with the growth his character experienced over the last four years. Peggy Davis argues that "Wesley can embody masculine heroism or feminine comic figure, but not both"; however in this episode he demonstrates that his heroic masculinity allows for a comedic element as well. In addition to bringing back "classic Wesley", this episode also gave the opportunity to refresh viewers' memories of "teenage bitch queen" Cordelia from "Buffy", whose character changed dramatically during her time on "Angel".
Whedon gave Lorne's spell the side-effect of making the gang "high" to differentiate this memory spell from a similar one used in the | 6,125,960 |
3528293 | Spin the Bottle (Angel) | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Spin%20the%20Bottle%20(Angel) | Spin the Bottle (Angel)
"Buffy" episode "Tabula Rasa", readily admitting the spell itself is "lazy writing," meant only to set the plot in motion. The frame narrative established by Lorne in the night club was done to highlight the postmodern aspects of the episode, explains Whedon. The artificiality of the night club, and Lorne's breaking of the fourth wall when he comments on the commercials that played during the act break, provides a foreground for the alternate reality caused by the spell. Whedon notes that while writing this episode, he already knew that Connor and Cordelia were going to have sex, but the story had to move faster than he had originally planned because Carpenter became pregnant.
## Acting.
This | 6,125,961 |
3528293 | Spin the Bottle (Angel) | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Spin%20the%20Bottle%20(Angel) | Spin the Bottle (Angel)
episode took much longer to film due to the cast finding it difficult to stop laughing. Amy Acker and Andy Hallett ruined dozens of takes by giggling, and Alexis Denisof and David Boreanaz prolonged shooting for an hour and a half when they couldn't stop laughing. To get the scene, Denisof explains he and Boreanaz resolved not to look at each other; on the DVD commentary Whedon points out background shots where Boreanaz is still failing to keep a straight face.
## Continuity.
- This episode follows a similar plot to the Buffy episode "Tabula Rasa" where all the characters forget who they are because of a spell gone wrong. It also mirrors the Buffy episode "Band Candy" where all the adults | 6,125,962 |
3528293 | Spin the Bottle (Angel) | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Spin%20the%20Bottle%20(Angel) | Spin the Bottle (Angel)
are turned into teenager versions of themselves.
- The age the characters regress to is unclear; Fred states "not one of y'all look 17", implying that would be the age they think they are, but Cordelia has no recollection of slayers or vampires nor does she recognize Angel. Cordelia initially believes herself to be the victim of a "sophomore hazing" prank, indicating she's regressed to sophomore year. She didn't meet Angel until towards the end of her sophomore year, and wasn't aware of the supernatural world until the very end of her sophomore year. It also should be noted that Cordelia's reaction to Angel's entrance, "Hello salty goodness" is exactly the same as when she met him for the first | 6,125,963 |
3528293 | Spin the Bottle (Angel) | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Spin%20the%20Bottle%20(Angel) | Spin the Bottle (Angel)
time.
- When Wesley says, "there are stories at the Watcher's Academy of a test. A secret gauntlet which only the most cunning can survive. You're locked in a house with a vicious, deadly vampire, and you have to kill him before he kills you. It's been done in the past with Slayers," he is speaking of the Cruciamentum that Buffy had to undertake in "Helpless".
- Fred speaks to a plant in this episode, as she previously did in "That Old Gang of Mine". Also, Spike mentions speaking to plants is one of Illyria's powers in "Origin".
- Fred confuses a Slayer with the thrash band of the same name. This is the second time in Buffyverse that Slayer has been mentioned in association with Buffy's title. | 6,125,964 |
3528293 | Spin the Bottle (Angel) | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Spin%20the%20Bottle%20(Angel) | Spin the Bottle (Angel)
The first was by Forrest in the Buffy episode "Doomed".
- Fred asks if anyone else took a personality test recently, with questions "about politics and your bowel movements and if you want to be a florist..." This would seem to be the same florist question test that was mentioned in "Doppelgangland".
- Cordelia says Connor is 18 years old, the first time he is given a concrete age after returning from Quor'Toth in the third season.
- Angel, in his 18th-century original identity of Liam, sees vehicles and runs into the hotel, believing them to be demons, as did Buffy when she believed herself to be an 18th-century maiden in the "Buffy" Episode "Halloween".
- It is uncertain when the narration | 6,125,965 |
3528293 | Spin the Bottle (Angel) | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Spin%20the%20Bottle%20(Angel) | Spin the Bottle (Angel)
of the episode by Lorne takes place. It is assumed it takes place after the episode ends, but some comments imply he was aware of the ultimate consequences of the spell (Jasmine's emergence), placing it at the end of the season.
- The Beast makes his first appearance in Cordelia's vision, but he does not fully appear until the next episode.
- After losing her memory, Cordelia is extremely upset at the thought of missing her senior prom, which was depicted in the "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" Season Three episode "The Prom". Though none of them were aware of it at the time that she made the comment, both Angel and Wesley were in attendance. The latter, who was then harbouring feelings for Cordelia, | 6,125,966 |
3528293 | Spin the Bottle (Angel) | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Spin%20the%20Bottle%20(Angel) | Spin the Bottle (Angel)
asked her to dance.
- The song "The Way We Were" that Lorne sang in the opening, was also sung in the Season 2 "Disharmony" episode at Caritas by Harmony.
# Reception and reviews.
The DVD commentary for this episode, featuring writer/director Joss Whedon and actor Alexis Denisof, ranks 86th on the list of top 100 commentary tracks for DVD boxsets and movies on RateThatCommentary.com, and 3rd on Slayage.com.
This episode is one of the more well regarded of the season, with UGO Networks commenting that it is "a bit of a high point" of the season and "great fun all around." Pointing out that Whedon had previously explored amnesia on "Buffy", here he "goes back to the well here with a twist." | 6,125,967 |
3528293 | Spin the Bottle (Angel) | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Spin%20the%20Bottle%20(Angel) | Spin the Bottle (Angel)
point" of the season and "great fun all around." Pointing out that Whedon had previously explored amnesia on "Buffy", here he "goes back to the well here with a twist." Sci-fi.com calls it the best of the "light" episodes this season, due to the writing and directing credits of Joss Whedon.
The Futon Critic named it the 33rd best episode of 2002, saying "it was particularly interesting in this episode to see Cordelia (along with the rest of the cast) forced to revisit their younger selves after a memory spell goes awry. How Chase, David Boreanaz, Alexis Denisof and company all step their characters back a few years without missing a beat is something that borders on extraordinary to watch." | 6,125,968 |

Cinque variazioni (Berio)
Cinque variazioni ("Five variations") is a composition for solo piano by Luciano Berio, written in 1952/3 and greatly revised in 1966. It was published by Suvini Zerboni and the first performance was given by Berio in Milan in 1953. The variations are based on a three-note melodic cell—""fratello""[014]—from the opera "Il prigioniero" by Luigi Dallapiccola, to whom the work is dedicated . Major changes between the two versions are indicated below, but many other small changes may be found, mostly additions to render the harmony more complex.
- First variation: "calmo e flessibile". No theme is stated in this piece. Like Webern's piano "Variations" a twelve-tone row | 6,125,969 |
3528317 | Cinque variazioni (Berio) | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Cinque%20variazioni%20(Berio) | Cinque variazioni (Berio)
stated at the beginning stands in for a theme. The first variation remains largely within the ppp–pppp range. It begins with a series of major ninths (the number nine plays a significant role in the structure of the piece) and gradually gains in rhythmic and harmonic complexity.
- Second variation: "(quarter note) poco meno del (eighth note) precedente". Mostly built on a sharp dotted motif but rapidly gains in speed and density, building up to a fff climax.
- Third variation: "prestissimo (e ben articulato)". Fragments of motifs thrown around with rests and accents. A short cadenza (dotted quarter=104) intervenes (the designation "cadenza" is taken out in the revised version). Finally, a | 6,125,970 |
3528317 | Cinque variazioni (Berio) | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Cinque%20variazioni%20(Berio) | Cinque variazioni (Berio)
coda "prestissimo", rapidly building up from very soft to extremely loud, closes this variation (the word "coda" is removed in the revised version).
- Fourth variation: "legatissimo e volante". Beginning pppp, with rapid, highly chromatic scale passages (sometimes divided between the hands) and fragments of motifs tossed around. Builds to several climaxes. The bottom score of page 13 and the first two scores of page 14 are new to the revised version.
- Fifth variation: "calmo". Return to the pensive mood of the first variation, but with an intensely lyrical melody set among a large number of ornaments. The original version of the piece lacks almost all of these ornaments and is rhythmically | 6,125,971 |
3528317 | Cinque variazioni (Berio) | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Cinque%20variazioni%20(Berio) | Cinque variazioni (Berio)
ng pppp, with rapid, highly chromatic scale passages (sometimes divided between the hands) and fragments of motifs tossed around. Builds to several climaxes. The bottom score of page 13 and the first two scores of page 14 are new to the revised version.
- Fifth variation: "calmo". Return to the pensive mood of the first variation, but with an intensely lyrical melody set among a large number of ornaments. The original version of the piece lacks almost all of these ornaments and is rhythmically far more simple and static (all the nontuplets are only found in the revised version).
- Coda: Return to the stationary, ninth-dominated motives of the start, mostly in the ppp range with much pedal. | 6,125,972 |

Habeas Corpses
"Habeas Corpses" is episode 8 of season 4 in the television show "Angel". Angel is preoccupied with the indestructible Beast storms through Wolfram & Hart, leaving a trail of destruction and reanimated zombies in his wake.
# Plot synopsis.
Fred waits impatiently at the hotel, and Wesley, Gunn and Lorne return, battered and bruised from their battle. Fred and Gunn embrace. Cordelia tries to tell Connor that the night before was a one-time deal, but he storms out, feeling the pain of her rejection and blaming himself for the Beast's intrusion.
Wesley is visited by Lilah who's relieved to find him alive. Wesley's not as welcoming to her affections though, and he breaks off their | 6,125,973 |
3528318 | Habeas Corpses | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Habeas%20Corpses | Habeas Corpses
relationship, choosing to fight for the good side.
Connor sneaks into Lilah's office, but Lilah attempts to have him captured and tested for their purposes. Connor takes the situation into his own hands and orders Lilah to help him learn everything they do about the Beast. The lights flicker and turn off as Connor realizes the Beast has arrived, rampaging through the lobby and tearing lawyers apart. Connor sets out to take on the creature himself. The Beast finds Gavin in a closet, snaps his neck and tosses him effortlessly against a wall. The Beast then goes after Lilah who tries first to shoot the creature and then negotiate, but he stabs her with one of his clawed fingers. After a couple | 6,125,974 |
3528318 | Habeas Corpses | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Habeas%20Corpses | Habeas Corpses
of failed attempts at hurting the creature, Connor is recognized by the Beast and tossed aside into a stone pillar.
Wesley arrives to rescue Lilah, using a hand grenade to temporarily stun the fast-approaching demon. Lilah leads the way to a storage closet where one of the only two emergency exits can be found hidden behind some shelves. They escape through a small passage and into the sewers below the building. Wesley instructs her to start over a build a new life somewhere else before the Beast finds her. As he leaves, she informs him that Connor is trapped in the building.
Wesley returns to the hotel, and immediately Angel is determined to rescue his son. Meanwhile, Connor returns to his | 6,125,975 |
3528318 | Habeas Corpses | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Habeas%20Corpses | Habeas Corpses
search for the Beast. As he passes over Gavin's body, the former lawyer's eyes fly open. Cordelia stays at the hotel with Lorne, and Wesley leads the rest of the gang back through the sewers to the secret exit of Wolfram and Hart. The group walks through piles of dead lawyer bodies and then split up to speed up the search.
Angel finds Connor, but before they can escape, Gavin attacks Angel. Angel quickly points out that Gavin's a zombie as he knocks the former lawyer aside. Connor and Angel make a break for it as the various dead bodies around the halls all start to awaken. Fred, Wesley and Gunn are soon attacked by zombies as well and barricade themselves in an office. The zombies prove too | 6,125,976 |
3528318 | Habeas Corpses | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Habeas%20Corpses | Habeas Corpses
overwhelming and everyone needs to escape, but all of the routes are obstructed by the zombies. Angel suggests they try the Conduit of the White Room he was in once before, so they try to use the elevator. Gunn spots Gavin at the front and takes a moment to chop off the zombie's head, while Angel finally gets the secret access code to work, and they're transported to the special white room.
Once there, they spot the little girl lying on the ground as the Beast kneels above her, extracting a black cloud of energy, or possibly her life, from her. She tells them, "The answer is among you" and then before the Beast can get his hands on them, the young girl mutters some words and transports the | 6,125,977 |
3528318 | Habeas Corpses | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Habeas%20Corpses | Habeas Corpses
gang back into the hotel. Cordelia hugs Connor while Lorne questions the others about what happened. Soon afterward, Cordelia tells Angel that she was worried and he orders her to take her new boyfriend, i.e. Connor, and get out.
# Writing.
It is never established exactly why the Wolfram & Hart employees are re-animated as zombies. It is suggested that the Beast (or, by extension, anyone associated with it) was responsible, or alternatively that it is a mystical failsafe which is automatically activated at Wolfram & Hart during emergencies. However, in "Home" it is revealed that Lilah Morgan remains in the employ of Wolfram & Hart, even after her death. Lilah describes this as a "standard | 6,125,978 |
3528318 | Habeas Corpses | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Habeas%20Corpses | Habeas Corpses
immortality clause", suggesting that all employees have such a contract.
## Arc significance.
- Wesley breaks up with Lilah after several episodes of an ongoing complicated relationship. Lilah hides her pain with callousness, and expresses her belief that he is joining Angel Investigations again because of Fred.
- The Beast's massacre leaves the Wolfram & Hart building in shambles, and its employees dead, with Lilah being the only known exception. It remains this way until the season finale, when it appears to have been mystically restored and remodeled.
- This episode also hints that the evil is among them-the group mistakenly believes soon after this that the little girl from Wolfram and | 6,125,979 |
3528318 | Habeas Corpses | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Habeas%20Corpses | Habeas Corpses
ints that the evil is among them-the group mistakenly believes soon after this that the little girl from Wolfram and Hart meant Angelus, but it appears she was actually referring to Cordelia/Jasmine's role in everything taking place.
- Lorne mentioned to Angel about if he was a cool teacher. This referenced how he killed Jenny Calendar in "Passion" on "Buffy".
## Continuity.
- Angel demonstrates his photographic memory, previously seen in "Supersymmetry".
- The White Room was last seen in "Forgiving".
- This episode marks the last appearance of Gavin and the second and last appearance of the Girl.
## Cultural references.
- Habeas Corpus: The episode's title refers to the legal action. | 6,125,980 |
3528291 | Pierre Toussaint | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Pierre%20Toussaint | Pierre Toussaint
Pierre Toussaint
Venerable Pierre Toussaint (27 June 1766 – June 30, 1853) was a slave from the French colony of Saint-Domingue who was brought to New York City by his owners in 1787. There he eventually gained his freedom and became a noted philanthropist to the poor of the city. Freed in 1807 after the death of his mistress, Pierre took the surname of "Toussaint" in honor of the hero of the Haitian Revolution which established that nation.
After his marriage in 1811 to Juliette Noel, Toussaint and his wife performed many charitable works. Among those works included opening their home as an orphanage, employment bureau, and a refuge for travelers. He contributed funds and helped raise money | 6,125,981 |
3528291 | Pierre Toussaint | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Pierre%20Toussaint | Pierre Toussaint
to build Saint Patrick's Cathedral on Mulberry Street. He was considered "one of the leading black New Yorkers of his day." His ghostwritten memoir was published in 1854.
Due to his devout and exemplary life, the Roman Catholic Church has been investigating his life for possible canonization and in 1996 he was declared "Venerable" by Pope John Paul II, the second step in the process. Toussaint is the first layperson to be buried in the crypt below the main altar of Saint Patrick's Cathedral on Fifth Avenue, normally reserved for bishops of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of New York.
# Life.
## Early life.
Born on June 27, 1766, in modern-day Haiti, Pierre Toussaint was born a slave. Pierre | 6,125,982 |
3528291 | Pierre Toussaint | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Pierre%20Toussaint | Pierre Toussaint
was the son of Ursule at the Artibonite plantation, and owned by the Bérard family. The plantation was located on the Artibonite River near Saint-Marc on the colony's west coast. His father's name is not known. He was known to have a sister Rosalie. His maternal grandmother, Zenobe Julien, was also a slave and was later freed by the Bérards for her service to the family. His maternal great-grandmother, Tonette, had been born in Africa, where she was sold into slavery and brought to Saint-Domingue. He was raised as a Catholic.
Pierre was educated as a child by the Bérard family's tutors and was trained as a house slave. The senior Bérards returned to France, taking Zenobe Julien with them, and | 6,125,983 |
3528291 | Pierre Toussaint | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Pierre%20Toussaint | Pierre Toussaint
their son Jean Bérard took over the plantation. As the tensions rose which would lead to Haitian slaves and free people of color rising in rebellion, in 1787 Bérard and his second wife left the island for New York City, taking five of their slaves with them, including Pierre and Rosalie.
## New York.
Upon their arrival in New York, Bérard had Pierre apprenticed to one of New York's leading hairdressers. The master returned to Saint-Domingue to see to his property. After Jean Bérard died in St. Domingue of pleurisy, Pierre, who was becoming increasingly successful as a hairdresser in New York, voluntarily took on the support of Madame Bérard. His master had allowed him to keep much of his earnings | 6,125,984 |
3528291 | Pierre Toussaint | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Pierre%20Toussaint | Pierre Toussaint
from being hired out. (Pierre's kindness to his mistress was noted by one of her friends, Mrs. Philip Schuyler, whose notes were a source for the 1854 memoir of Toussaint.) Madame Bérard eventually remarried, to a Monsieur Nicolas, also from Saint-Domingue. On her deathbed, she made her husband promise to free Pierre from slavery.
As a very popular hairdresser among the upper echelon of New York society, Toussaint earned a good living. He saved his money and paid for his sister Rosalie's freedom. They both still lived in what was then the Nicolas house. He was freed at age 45.
Catherine ("Kitty") Church Cruger, two years older than Toussaint, would become one of his key clients and friends. | 6,125,985 |
3528291 | Pierre Toussaint | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Pierre%20Toussaint | Pierre Toussaint
She was the daughter of John Barker Church (who would give the pistols to Hamilton for the duel in Weehawken) and Angelica Schuyler, the muse and confidante of Hamilton and Jefferson.
Due to connections among the French emigrant community in New York, Toussaint met people who knew the Bérards in Paris. He began a correspondence with them that lasted for some decades, particularly with Aurora Bérard, who had been his godmother. The Bérards had lost their fortune in the French Revolution, during which Aurora's father died in prison and her mother soon after. Her other siblings had married in France. Toussaint also corresponded with friends in Haiti; his collected correspondence filled 15 bound | 6,125,986 |
3528291 | Pierre Toussaint | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Pierre%20Toussaint | Pierre Toussaint
volumes, as part of documentation submitted by the Archdiocese of New York to the Holy See to support canonization.
## Marriage and family.
In 1811 Toussaint married Juliette Noel, a slave 20 years younger than he, after purchasing her freedom. For four years they continued to board at the Nicolas house. They adopted Euphemia, the daughter of his late sister Rosalie who had died of tuberculosis, raising the girl as their own. They provided for her education and music classes. In 1815, Nicolas and his wife moved to the American South. Together the Toussaints began a career of charity among the poor of New York City, often taking baked goods to the children of the Orphan Asylum and donating | 6,125,987 |
3528291 | Pierre Toussaint | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Pierre%20Toussaint | Pierre Toussaint
money to its operations.
## Charity.
Toussaint attended daily Mass for 66 years at St. Peter's in New York. He owned a house on Franklin Street, where the Toussaints sheltered orphans, and fostered numerous boys in succession. Toussaint supported them in getting an education and learning a trade; he sometimes helped them get their first jobs through his connections in the city.
They also organized a credit bureau, an employment agency, and a refuge for priests and destitute travelers. Many Haitian refugees went to New York, and because Toussaint spoke both French and English, he frequently helped the new immigrants. He often arranged sales of goods so they could raise money to live on. He | 6,125,988 |
3528291 | Pierre Toussaint | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Pierre%20Toussaint | Pierre Toussaint
was "renowned for crossing barricades to nurse quarantined cholera patients" during an epidemic in New York.
Toussaint also helped raise money to build a new Roman Catholic church in New York, which became Old St. Patrick's Cathedral on Mulberry Street. He was a benefactor of the first New York City Catholic school for Black children at St. Vincent de Paul on Canal Street.
As Toussaint aged, he continued his charity. At his death, his papers included records of his many charitable gifts to Catholic and other institutions; his character was lauded by friends and acquaintances. He was "one of the leading black New Yorkers of his day", but his story became lost to history.
## Later years.
Euphemia | 6,125,989 |
3528291 | Pierre Toussaint | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Pierre%20Toussaint | Pierre Toussaint
died before her adoptive parents, of tuberculosis, like her mother. Juliette died in 1851. Two years later, Pierre Toussaint died on June 30, 1853, at the age of 87. He was buried alongside his wife and Euphemia, in the cemetery of St. Patrick's Old Cathedral on Mott Street.
# Juliette Noel.
Juliette Noel Toussaint was the wife of Pierre Toussaint and both consecrated their lives to helping the poor and doing charitable work. Juliette was born into slavery in 1786; she was held by a French family. Her freedom was purchased by Pierre before they married in 1811. They continued together the charitable works Pierre had begun. The couple helped refugees find jobs, cared for orphans, and opened | 6,125,990 |
3528291 | Pierre Toussaint | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Pierre%20Toussaint | Pierre Toussaint
a school to teach black children. They also provided financial help to the Oblate Sisters of Providence. When a plague struck the city of New York, they worked and cared for the victims. She died in 1851 in New York. Pierre was eighty-five years old at the time Juliette died. Some people support opening the beatification of Juliette, who they say served equally with Pierre.
# Veneration.
After the formal approval by the Holy See of the cause for Toussaint's canonization, his grave was located and identified in the cemetery where he had been buried. His remains were transferred to the crypt of St. Patrick's Cathedral on Fifth Avenue, which serves as the seat of the Archbishop of New York.

Shaded Red
Shaded Red was a Christian alternative rock band from Denver, Colorado, in the United States. It was formed in 1993 by brothers Jamie Roberts (vocals and guitar) and Jonathan Roberts (guitars, bass, trumpet, piano). In 1997 they released their debut self-titled album through Cadence. On January 17, 1998, the band was struck by tragedy when their van hit a patch of black ice returning from a concert. Drummer Chris Yeoman was killed and Jon Roberts was left with a shattered pelvis. It was at this time the band considered calling it quits but decided to press on instead.
In 1999, the band released their second album, "Red Revolution". The album was a moderate success and features a | 6,125,996 |
3528325 | Shaded Red | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Shaded%20Red | Shaded Red
remake of the Benny Hester song "When God Ran". The band has since broken up, and brothers Jamie and Jonathan currently reside in Los Angeles.
