"Crush'd" is the seventh episode of the third season, the 48th episode overall, of the American dramedy series Ugly Betty, which aired on November 6, 2008. The episode was written by Tracy Poust and Jon Kinnally and directed by Victor Neili Jr.

Plot
As the morning starts, Betty decides to go to work early, hoping to grasp the attention of her neighbor, Jesse, who comes home around the same time Betty leaves for work. As she arrives at work, Betty is stunned to find Amanda staying overnight at Mode as she has been evicted from her apartment due to her financial instability. Betty suggests that Amanda ask Betty her friends to help her look for a new place. Betty is determined to win over her crush, and goes as far as even listening to his demos like they are love letters and talks him up so much that even Daniel starts to tease her. However, Amanda lands at Betty's doorstep with Halston in tow asking to become Betty's new roommate, admitting that she had no one else to turn to. Unfortunately, this unlikely pairing is way beyond The Odd Couple, as she borrows Betty's clothes (a blouse becomes a belted dress; leggings become a skin-tight number), eats all her food and keeps her awake at night with her demands.

However, Amanda seems to have untapped potential as she actually comes up with a few good ideas. Once she becomes aware that Betty has a crush on one of her neighbors but not whom, she suggests she invite him to the Mode "Fashion Heats Up" party. When Betty invites Jesse, he assumes that she wants his band, "Dark Sexual Journey", to play. However, she later discovers that Daniel has already booked Mariah Carey for the party. Amanda then suggests that Betty hold an after-party on her rooftop and invite her crush's band to play there, while at the same time using it as a get-out-of-debt scheme for Amanda's debt. She also reworks Betty's colorful invitation flyers and advertises the party through elite guerrilla marketing to make the employees think it is an exclusive VIP party to pique their interest. The ploy works and the party becomes a success. With help from the family, Betty comes up with a Mexican-style theme for the over 300 people that will show up at the event.

On the Mode front, both Daniel and Wilhelmina are having problems with their new CFO, Connor. Daniel expects Connor, as his friend, to bow to his wishes, which means not selling any of the Meade Publication titles to offset their deficit, which was one of Connor's suggestions. When Wilhelmina becomes suspicious of Daniel and Connor becoming fast friends, Daniel comes clean about their partnership. Having been duped by Daniel, Wilhelmina is all set to blackmail Connor to get her way, but unexpectedly develops a crush on him, which has Marc taking notes. However behind the scenes, Claire warns Daniel that he should be careful around Connor, even when Connor is around Wilhelmina.

Later that evening on the way to the after-party, Daniel and Claire learn that Connor has gone ahead and sold off several of Meade's publications meeting with Conde Nast Publications while watching Fashion TV. Also showing up for the event is Wilhelmina, who is stunned that the event is being held on Betty's rooftop. At this point she sees Connor and tries to confront him, but Daniel also sees Connor as well and is ready to confront him, too. Fed up by the two co-EICs, Connor finally stands up for himself, admitting that he met with Conde Nast Publications to sell a few of Mode's properties and then listing all his bad decisions in his life that Wili might have used to blackmail him, and tells both of them that he is "nobody's bitch". Later, Wilhelmina apologizes to Connor and at the same time hopes sparks will fly, but after he accepts, he gets a call on his phone from his fiancée. As he leaves, Wili is crushed as she still feels something for Connor.

At the rooftop party, Jesse and his band wows the crowd with their set and even Betty is thrilled to see him perform, even after dedicating a song to a "special girl," which Betty thinks is about her. After he finishes his set Betty looks for Jesse at his apartment, only to walk in on Amanda making out with Jesse. The stunned Betty then confronts Amanda for moving in on Jesse and tells her that she is throwing Amanda out of the apartment. As Betty cries her heart out outside the building, Daniel sees her and tells Betty that she will always be a beautiful woman even if her heart gets broken. Hours later, Amanda, realizing why this was so upsetting, gives the proceeds to Betty for rent money and assures her that Jesse is not worth it. She then apologizes for what happened and the two make up with Betty allowing her to stay by helping clean up the apartment.

Marc's relationship with Cliff has taken on a rocky situation, as Cliff proposes that they move in together, which completely freaks out Marc, who is unsure and goes as far as avoiding Cliff. His obvious reluctance shows, and when Cliff does not get an answer from Marc, Cliff takes off in a huff. Later, during the after-party, Marc, upset over not giving Cliff an answer and not hearing from Cliff for three days, has a tryst with a guy he meets at the event. As he is leaving the guy's apartment, Cliff catches up with him and apologizes for all the pressure he had been putting on him. In a panic, Marc proposes marriage, on the spot, to Cliff. As they hug, Marc is in shock after Cliff accepts.

As the dawn breaks, Betty walks into the rooftop and sees Wilhelmina, who asks Betty to sit down next to her and share a drink while watching the sunrise.

Reception
This episode generally received very good reviews.

In a review from Entertainment Weekly, Tanner Stransky quotes, "On last night's stellar Ugly Betty, both Jesse (Val Emmich) and Betty (America Ferrera) uttered a catchphrase I'll be incorporating into my vernacular: "You're a snow day." How sweet is that? So simple and so powerful all at the same time. I'm just thinking about how, especially back in my school days, a snow day would make everything better. And that's the idea here, obvs."

As with the previous episode, Television Without Pity also gave this one a A+ for returning to its first season roots: "I rarely think about it when I give the A+, because I basically always give the A+, because I think quantifying art is, if not impossible, at the most subjective to a sort of horrifying degree. At what point do you go from "I liked it" to "it was good"? I don't trust myself to be accurate about that; I feel like it's enough to enjoy the ride they're putting me on as much as possible and getting as much out of it as I can. That way, the burden's on them. Having said that? Best episode in the last year and a half, possibly best altogether since the first season."

Ratings
The episode scored a 5.8/9 rating and a 2.7/7 in 18-49s with 9 million viewers overall, an increase of 400,000 viewers from the previous episode. and also the best ratings since the season premiere, The Manhattan Project.

The history of Folkestone stretches back to ancient times, with evidence of human habitation dating to the Mesolithic and Paleolithic ages over 12,000 years ago. Its close proximity to the Continent means that it has often been a point of transit for migrating peoples. The area has successively been occupied by groups of Britons, Romans and Saxons. During the Iron Age, a large oppidum and quern-stone workshop were situated on the eastern headlands of the bay. By the Roman era, it had been transformed into a large Roman Villa overlooking the sea.

During the Anglo-Saxon period, Folkestone was part of the Kingdom of Kent. After the Norman Invasion, a Norman knight held the Barony of Folkestone, by which time the settlement had become a fishing village. In the 13th century, it became part of the Cinque Ports, and had the privileges of a wealthy trading port. By the start of the Tudor period it had become a town in its own right. Wars with France meant that defences had to be built here; and plans for Folkestone Harbour were made. At the beginning of the 18th century the harbour finally became a reality, and Folkestone, like most settlements on the south coast, became involved in smuggling. However, it was the coming of the railways in mid-19th century that were the making of the town's prosperity: with it came the tourist trade, and the two industries, port and seaside resort, benefited the town until changes in tourist opportunities in the mid 20th century brought about its present somewhat depleted fortunes.

Prehistory
Folkestone's history has been shaped by its location within the natural landscape. It sits near the North Downs Trackway, which provided a natural track from the narrowest part of the English Channel to the important religious complexes at Avebury and Stonehenge in Wiltshire, where it is known as the Harroway. The entire area around Folkestone sits on a thick band of gault clay overlying the Lower Greensand which forms the underlying structure of southeast Britain. The greensand was laid down during the Lower Cretaceous period, and is rich in ichnofauna. The exposed greensand at Folkestone is a unique feature of the area, and is referred to as the Folkestone Formation or the Folkestone Beds. Unfortunately for historians and archaeologists alike, the greensand stone is loose unconsolidated sandstone, and the gault clay is nearly liquid at the point where it meets the greenstone, so that there may have been significant erosion and possible loss of prehistoric sites over the years. It is estimated that the cliffs at Folkestone have eroded by around 400–500 metres since Roman times, and that cliffs are crumbling at a rate of 6 inches (15 cm0) per year.

The Upper Palaeolithic, Mesolithic and Neolithic 10,000 BC – 2000 BC
While the nature of the cliffs in Folkestone means that much archaeological evidence has been lost to the sea, evidence has been found that points to settlement in the area as far back as 8000 BC, during the Neolithic era. During excavations at the Folkestone Roman Villa site in 2010, archaeologists discovered worked flints dating to the period, establishing proof of human presence in Folkestone at that time. Tools dating to the Palaeolithic have also been discovered at the Bayle in Folkestone, and there is evidence of a palaeolithic settlement at nearby Castle Hill (also known as Caesar's Encampment, though there is no evidence of Roman activity at this site).

The Bronze Age and Iron Age
On the outskirts of Folkestone, an important Bronze Age site was found at Holywell Coombe between 1987 and 1988, in advance of the building of the Channel Tunnel. Findings included roundhouses, fields, trackways, and pottery fragments.

During the Iron Age, an extensive pre-Roman native settlement existed on the eastern headland of the bay, at what has come to be known as the East Wear Bay Site, or the Roman Villa Site. Beneath the remains of the Roman era villa lie the remains of a much older Iron Age oppidum that also served as a quern-stone production center. Quern-stones, or stones used to grind cereals into flour, were produced here on almost an industrial scale, using the local greensand stone from the Folkestone formation. Over 200 querns have been recovered from the site, and most of them appear to have been discarded at some point during the process of production. Many have partially worked surfaces, or appear to have cracked during the hole boring stage. In addition to the numerous broken or unfinished querns, a layer of the excavation strata at the Villa/opidum site is entirely composed of greensand dust, which is almost certainly stone-working debris, suggesting that this was the location of the Iron Age era quern workshop.

Folkestone querns have been found in numerous other archaeological excavations throughout the greater Kent area and beyond, suggesting that the Iron Age residents had widespread trading connections. Querns have been found in local Kentish sites such as Wingham, and Dosset Court in Upper Deal, as well as more distant locations such as Hunbury (Northants), London, Essex, and possibly France. Archaeological evidence suggests that in return for the querns, the inhabitants received fine pottery from Gaul and wine from Italy.

Roman Folkestone

Roman Folkestone
Evidence of trade between Roman Gaul and the wealthy community at Folkestone suggests that they were on good terms with the Romans in the years before the Roman occupation. However, the town is not mentioned in any documents of the period, probably since a Roman road did not end here. A 1st century cemetery was discovered in 1948 at Cheriton on the outskirts of modern Folkestone, and contained both British and Roman remains. Tiles stamped "Classis Britannica" have also been found at the Roman villa site, suggesting that the villa may have had some sort of connection to Roman navy in Britain.

Folkestone Roman villa
After the Romans conquered Britain, a large Roman villa was built over the older Iron Age oppidum. The first version of the Folkestone Roman Villa was built c. 75 AD, and consisted of one block built of tufa stone, with slate and ironstone foundations. Archeological evidence suggests that the villa may have been damaged by fire, but it was rebuilt in the second century on a more luxurious scale, this time using quarried and dressed greensand stone. It was built to roughly the same plan, but was enlarged with more rooms and corridors, an expanded Roman Bath suite, and more luxurious finishing such as hypocausts, mosaic floors, and painted walls. The main entertaining room of the villa, no. 40, would have had views overlooking the courtyard and the over the cliffs to the sea. A second block was also built at this time, and also contained a bathing suite, kitchens, and a very large hypocaust. It was abandoned for unknown reasons in the 3rd or 4th century.

Post-Roman and Early Medieval

As 'Folcanstan' the town first appears in the 7th century, possibly named for its use as the meeting place ('–stone') of someone called Folca. Its recorded history may be viewed as beginning in this period due to the founding, in 630AD, of Folkestone Priory on the West Cliff at Folkestone by King Eadbald of Kent for his daughter Eanswythe (later canonised as St. Eanswythe) and her nuns. This is believed to have been the first Christian community for women in England. Her name lends itself to the parish church of St Mary and St Eanswythe where her mortal remains are believed to be interred. At the same time the King caused a fort to be built alongside. All evidence of both structures have since been destroyed either by sea or attack. As a result, fishermen and farmers began to settle in the valley, although there was still little more than a tiny hamlet on the banks of the river and on the seashore. The town seal shows the saint with two fishes to record this.

Middle Ages
By 1066 the manor of Folkestone was in the ownership of the church at Canterbury. In 1052 Earl Godwin of Wessex had attacked all the coastal towns, and the area was thought important enough for a Norman to own it. After William I became king he took the barony and made a gift of it to his half-brother Bishop Odo. By 1086, the year of Domesday the barony was held by William D'Arcy. It was given a value of £100 and consisted of about , 5 churches, about 600 people of whom 209 were villains and 83 bondsmen.

In 1095 the lord of the manor was Nigel de Muneville: he built a new church in the town to replace that which was destroyed by Earl Godwin and established Folkestone Priory for Benedictine Monks close to the nunnery site. In 1138 a new church and priory were again built, this time by William D'Averanches and dedicated to St. Mary and St. Eanswythe.

The French took an opportunity to attack Folkestone in 1216 and laid waste to much of the settlement which, although still a village in size, was significant enough to have a Mayor and a Corporation. In 1313 Folkestone received a charter as a Corporate Limb of the Cinque port of Dover, and was thus obliged to supply seven boats. Trade began through the port, especially of wool, but also of luxury goods such as wines and cloth.

16th/17th centuries
The Tudor period again saw fears of French invasion, and coastal defences were strengthened. Gun sites were prepared on the Bayle headland. During the reign of Queen Elizabeth I Folkestone contained about 120 houses. Folkestone Manor was one of the most prosperous in Kent. In 1545 the Town Council was again enlarged; and harbour plans, to replace the ancient Stade where boats had been landing, were drawn up in 1629, although they came to nothing.

At this time, too, the Free School, for poor boys, was established in 1684, by William Harvey's legacy; it was later to become Harvey Grammar School. A Guildhall was also built. By 1700 the town was expanding away from the beach area, up on to the hills on either side of the stream valley, although there were still pastures and orchards in the valley.

In 1794 the War Office purchased over 229 acres (930,000 m2) of open land at Shorncliffe, to the west of Folkestone. Here the Shorncliffe Redoubt was built; in 1796 the Garrison was further extended with the provision of barracks for housing troops, originally being sent off to the Peninsula Wars, were stationed there. In 1804 the original wooden barracks were replaced with buildings of stone construction and were used to house cavalry and artillery brigades. Subsequent wars have seen many thousands of troops here: the present Sir John Moore Barracks is the home of Gurkha Regiment in Britain.

18th/19th centuries
The beginning of this period coincided with smuggling which was rife throughout the South Coast of England. Local people were generally favourably inclined towards them, and Folkestone dwellers were no exception. The main storage area for smuggled goods was The Warren, to the east of the town.
Later in the 19th century, Folkestone Harbour become a reality; and the coming of the railways heralded the start of a new industry to the town: that of tourism, although this was to be relatively much later than its neighbours of Margate, Ramsgate and Broadstairs. Most of the facilities expected of a seaside resort - a pleasure pier, a bathing establishment and theatres - only appeared after the 1880s.

20th century
In the First World War the town became host to some 65,000 Belgian refugees fleeing the conflict.  Shorncliffe Camp served as a training camp for thousands of recruits in training, and the port was the main embarkation point for soldiers leaving to fight in the trenches of France and Belgium. Whole blocks of houses, hotels and other buildings were commandeered for the hundreds of thousands of soldiers, including many Canadian troops. They marched through the town to the harbour along the route now called the "Road of Remembrance".

In general, little serious damage was done to Folkestone during World War I, although on 25 May 1917 low cloud over London caused a 21 strong wave of Gotha bombers to abort a raid on the capital. The Luftstreitkräfte aircraft turned for home and detached their bombs mainly in the Folkestone district, killing 71 people and injuring 94 more.

After the war a good deal of refurbishment was required: requisitioned buildings had to be made ready for holidaymakers. New buildings to attract them were built: the Marina and new pleasure gardens were established, and the Marine Pavilion built. But this was not to last for long, for much worse befell the town in World War II.

At the very beginning of that war thousands of school children were evacuated to the town, but were soon sent elsewhere in 1940. Within a few weeks Folkestone became a prohibited area and 35,000 residents left. Defences around the town were set up: tank traps, barbed wire surrounded it, and gun batteries set upon the heights. In this war the town was under constant attack: bombs and shelling (from across the Channel) and later flying bombs caused immense damage, and Folkestone was to be changed forever. Casualties were high: 123 people were killed, and 778 injured. 550 houses had been destroyed, 14,441 properties damaged. It took almost twenty years before Folkestone was again to become a holiday resort.

In July 1967 an attempt was made to retrieve the cargo of the Kielce, a Polish munitions ship that had sunk in 1946 off Folkestone. During preliminary work, the ordnance in the vessel's hold exploded with force equivalent to an earthquake measuring 4.5 on the Richter scale, digging a six-metre deep crater in the seabed and causing panic in Folkestone, although no-one was injured.

This is a list of monarchs of the Netherlands (Dutch: Koningen der Nederlanden). By practical extension, the list includes the stadtholders of the House of Orange Nassau since 1556. However, they were voted into office by, and were civil servants and generals of, the semi-independent provinces of the Dutch Republic and cannot be seen as monarchs. From William IV they were the direct male line ancestors of later monarchs when the monarchy was established in 1813 (first as a Sovereign Principality, but in 1815 as a Kingdom).

Dutch Republic (1581–1795)

The origin of the Dutch monarchy can be traced back to the appointment of William I, Prince of Orange as stadtholder of Holland, Zeeland and Utrecht in 1559 by Philip II of Spain. However, he was removed from office and became the leader of the Dutch Revolt. Consequently, the States-General appointed him as stadtholder of both rebelling provinces, Holland and Zeeland, in 1572. During the Dutch Revolt, most of the Dutch provinces declared their independence with the Act of Abjuration, signed on 26 July 1581 in The Hague in conformation with the decision made by the States-General. The representative function of the stadtholder became obsolete in the rebellious northern Netherlands – the feudal Lord himself having been abolished – but the office nevertheless continued in these provinces who now united themselves into the Republic of the Seven United Netherlands. All stadtholders after William I were drawn from his descendants or the descendants of his brother, who were also the descendants of his granddaughter Albertina Agnes of Nassau-Orange.

In 1795 the Republic was overthrown by the French Republic and replaced with the Batavian Republic. In 1806 Napoleon abolished the new republic and made his brother King of Holland. However, in 1810 Napoleon invaded the Netherlands and annexed them to France. In 1813, Allied forces drove out the French. The Dutch called back William Frederick, the son of the last stadtholder, to head the new government.  He was proclaimed "sovereign prince". In 1815, he raised the Netherlands to the status of a kingdom and proclaimed himself King William I. The kingdom was enlarged with the Southern Netherlands, now Belgium and Luxembourg, soon after.

Stadtholderate under the House of Orange-Nassau

When William III died childless, the patrilineal ancestry of Orange-Nassau became extinct. In contrast to other provinces of the Dutch Republic, Friesland, Groningen and Drenthe had mostly drawn its stadtholders from the House of Nassau, that starting with John VI, the brother of William of Orange, and comprises in addition a matrilineal ancestry with the house of Orange-Nassau.

Jean-Claude "JC" Larreche (born 3 July 1947) is Emeritus Professor at INSEAD, Fontainebleau, France, where he held the Alfred H. Heineken Chair of Marketing from 1993 to 2018. His academic and business activities are focused on building the fundamental capabilities required to create corporate value, especially through marketing excellence, customer focus, and value-capture selling.

He is Founder and President of StratX ExL and of StratX Simulations. StratX ExL organizes and delivers experiential learning seminars on leadership, marketing, and innovation for leading global corporations. StratX Simulations is the provider of world-renowned computerized business learning software, including REVMANEX, Markstrat, Circular Markstrat, Digital Markstrat, Blue Ocean Strategy Simulation, BrandPRO, Digital MediaPRO, and MixPRO.

In addition to his distinguished academic and business career, Larreche is known for his books Value Capture Selling: How to Win the 3rd Sales Transformation (to be published by Wiley in September 2023) and The Momentum Effect: How to Ignite Exceptional Growth, numerous articles and papers, and his pioneering work in business simulations, starting with Markstrat, the leading strategic-marketing simulation, used by more than a million executives worldwide.

Education
Larreche received a degree in engineering (with a major in computer hardware) from INSA Lyon in 1968. He then developed his expertise in computer software and obtained his MSc in Computer Science from the University of London in 1969. He entered the world of business by studying at INSEAD where he received his MBA in 1970. He specialized further in marketing and modeling at the Stanford Graduate School of Business in California where he obtained his PhD in 1974. While pursuing his PhD at Stanford, Larreche continued to pursue his interest in computer science there—taking classes taught by John McCarthy, the father of artificial intelligence. It was at Stanford that he was given the nickname “JC” by his classmates.

Career

Pioneering the development of business simulations
While working as a research assistant at INSEAD after his MBA, in 1970 Larreche was asked to assist L’Oréal assess an MIT-developed computerized marketing model that they were considering purchasing. He was fascinated by it and "decided to investigate the best places in the world to study marketing modeling." Larreche is quoted as saying that he chose Stanford for his PhD so that he could study under David B. Montgomery, one of the founders of marketing modeling.

Leveraging his dual background in marketing and computer science, and working with his research assistant, Hubert Gatignon, from 1974 to 1977 Larreche further developed his work on marketing modeling to create a teaching simulation called Markstrat (short for “marketing strategy”). Markstrat is a game where teams of students compete against one another in an artificial world under realistic market conditions. The game provides marketing students and professionals alike with a risk-free platform to test decisions around a variety of concepts, including brand positioning, market segmentation, and product portfolios—enabling them to become more effective at creating value in competitive markets. It is claimed that Markstrat is now used in 8 out of the top 10 business schools in the world and 25 of the top 30 schools in the US.

Among other simulations, Larreche also developed DiG – Discovery Innovation Growth—a versatile learning tool to develop competencies in innovation, customer centricity, value-based marketing, business acumen, leadership, and team performance.

More recently, he designed the REVMANEX simulator for sales and negotiations training with a focus on corporate-value creation.

Business activities
In 1983, at the age of just 36, Larreche was appointed to the board of Reckitt & Coleman (now Reckitt Benckiser), London, in a non-executive role after previously working for the firm in a consultancy capacity. He remained on the board for 18 years.

In 1984, he founded StratX to offer business schools and global corporations access to leading-edge computerized experiential learning tools. These activities developed over time, and in 2019 StratX was split into two separate companies: StratX Simulations, offering world-renowned computerized business learning software, and StratX ExL, organizing experiential-learning seminars on leadership, marketing, and innovation for leading global corporations.

Larreche served as a Member of the Board of The MAC Group, Cambridge, Massachusetts, from 1986 through 1990, and was a Non-Executive Director for Smartpool, London, from 2008 through 2012.

Throughout his business career, he has consulted for many of the world’s top firms, including Alcan, Boeing, British Broadcasting Corporation, British Telecom,  Christian Salvesen, Citibank, Digital Equipment, General Electric, Heineken, Hewlett Packard, IBM, ICI, ICL, IMS, MDM Bank, Merck, Nestlé, Nordea, Novartis, Novo Nordisk, Oracle, Partner Re, Pfizer, Polaroid, Randstad, Rank Xerox, Remploy, UBS, Volvo, Zambon, Zeneca, and others.

Academic activities
During the 1990s, Larreche’s work began to concentrate on the underlying capabilities that impact on a business’s ability to compete in the marketplace and to create corporate value. He published a series of reports based on surveys conducted with more than 1,200 executives in hundreds of Fortune 1000 companies. The surveys attempted to define and evaluate the attributes, characteristics, and behaviors of large global firms and assess their impact on corporate performance. That work, combined with computer modeling and his longtime work on customer focus, converged on the concept of “momentum”—an attempt to map out a process for improving the efficiency of a firm’s profitable growth. The culmination of this period of Larreche’s work was the publication in 2008 of the book, The Momentum Effect: How to Ignite Exceptional Growth.

More recently, Larreche has focused his attention on the development of the concept of the 3rd sales transformation and its critical importance to the creation of corporate value in the current global business environment of reduced growth and stronger competition. Larreche’s further development of this concept led to the publication in 2023 of his book, Value Capture Selling: How to Win the 3rd Sales Transformation.

Larreche has been widely recognized for his academic and business achievements, including being elected as a faculty member representative to the INSEAD Board for 18 cumulative years. In addition, he has received the following awards:

Ingrid Haebler (20 June 1926 or 1929 – 14 May 2023) was an Austrian classical pianist.

Early life
Haebler was born in Vienna. Her birth year has been variously given as 1926 or 1929; The New York Times has suggested the former date was "probably" the accurate one. Her parents moved to Poland shortly after her birth, where she remained for her early childhood. Many celebrated musicians were regular visitors to the Haebler home, including Claudio Arrau, Robert Casadesus and Bronislaw Huberman. It was Casadesus who recognised the child's talent as a pianist and predicted a great future for her.

On the outbreak of World War II the family moved to Salzburg where Haebler made her first public appearance at the age of eleven. She took up studies at the Mozarteum under Professor Heinz Scholz, graduating in 1949 with distinction for her playing of Mozart, and along the way developing a taste for music of the late eighteenth and early twentieth centuries. That same year Haebler won the Lilli Lehmann Medal of the International Mozarteum Foundation.

Haebler studied at the Salzburg Mozarteum, Vienna Music Academy, Conservatoire de Musique de Genève and privately in Paris with Marguerite Long.

Career
Haebler toured worldwide and is best known for a series of recordings she made from the 1950s to 1980s. Her complete set of Mozart's piano sonatas for the Denon label is still regarded as among the finest sets.

Haebler also recorded all of Mozart's piano concertos (most of them twice), often with her own cadenzas, and all of Schubert's sonatas. She was one of several Austrian musicians to experiment early with period instruments, having recorded the keyboard concertos of Johann Christian Bach on a fortepiano, with the Capella Academica Wien under Eduard Melkus, as well as Mozart's keyboard concertos nos. 1-4 with the same ensemble and director for Philips Records. Her recordings of Mozart and Beethoven with the violinist Henryk Szeryng are particularly prized.

Through the 1950s, Ingrid Haebler's repertoire ranged from Bach to Stravinsky and she toured extensively in Europe, North Africa, Australia, the United States, Canada, and Japan. She began annual appearances at the Salzburg Festival in 1954.

Death
Haebler died on 14 May 2023.

The cloaked pug (Eupithecia abietaria) is a moth of the family Geometridae. The species was first described by Johann August Ephraim Goeze in 1781 and it can be found in Europe and to the east in Siberia and Japan.

The wingspan is 21–23 mm. It is a large and handsome species, the lines sharply expressed and marked with black teeth or dashes on the veins. There is a very large discal dot and two red-brown bands. The face is without well-developed cone of scales and the palpus is about twice as long as the diameter of the eye The forewing has a double areole . - ab. constricta ab. nov.[Prout] has the median area reduced to a width of only 1-2 mm. and the antemedian and postmedian lines ere  connected by black veins. - debrunneata Stgr., from the Ussuri district, is more mixed with blackish, the red-brown tone wanting - gigantea Stgr., from the Ussuri
district and Japan, is darker grey than in debrunneata, the reddish bands (as in rufescens) strongly developed.
 The oval egg is characterized by regular, large, hexagonal depressions on the shell sculpture. Final instar larvae are thick, fleshy red coloured and show no patterns. The pupa is dark reddish-brown and has two strong hook bristles on the cremaster as well as several fine bristles.

The moths flies from June to July depending on the location.

The larvae feed on Picea abies, Picea sitchensis and Abies procera.

Subspecies
There are two recognized subspecies:
Eupithecia abietaria abietaria
Eupithecia abietaria debrunneata

Similar species
Eupithecia analoga is smaller, has less contrasted markings and differs in particular by the significantly longer palpi.

A genital morphological examination is also recommended for a clear assignment.

In topography, a nadir is a point on a surface that is lower in elevation than all points immediately adjacent to it. Mathematically, a nadir is a local minimum of elevation. A nadir may be the lowest point of a dry basin or depression, or the deepest point of a body of water or ice. The nadir of a body of water is often called a "deep", as in the Challenger Deep, the nadir of the Earth's oceans.

Lou Brown (born 1978) is an English singer-songwriter who received the 2003 Southwest's Young Achiever of the Year Award and took part in the Prince's Trust's "Soundlive" programme, where she was offered the opportunity to learn skills from professional working musicians, and subsequently won a grant from the Trust to fund her first major album project.  In addition to releasing two albums, What Are You Singing About (2006) and Calm the Rising Waters (2010), she performed at Glastonbury Festival 2009 and appeared on BBC Radio 2's Wake Up to Wogan.

A native of the Dorset seaside resort town of Bournemouth, Lou Brown describes herself as a folk artist and, in his March 2009 Folk World review of What Are You Singing About, Adolf Goriup wrote that "Lou is a wonderful singer with a soft voice and a great feeling for rhythm, which she proves with the outstanding opening song 'Morning Light'", concluding the write-up with, "Lou Brown has recorded an album that is really worth listening to... I’m sure you’ll like it." The album received airplay on regional UK radio stations such as Wave 105, Original 106 in Southampton and Bristol, Forest FM, BBC Radio Bristol, BBC Radio Gloucestershire, BBC Southern Counties Radio, BBC Somerset and BBC Radio Solent. After years of gigging extensively around the UK, she took the album to America in 2008, playing a series of dates in Chicago and Iowa.  Back in the UK, she played support slots for Hazel O'Connor, Paul Young, Boo Hewerdine, Albert Lee, Clive Gregson, and Steve Tilston.  Her 29 June 2009 national radio debut on BBC Radio 2's Wake Up to Wogan came about in the aftermath of the Glastonbury Festival appearance.  In 2010, her second album, Calm the Rising Waters, produced by Clive Gregson, was released.

Eupithecia linariata, the toadflax pug, is a moth of the family Geometridae. The species can be found in Europe and from Anatolia to Tajikistan and Iran.

The wingspan is 11–16 mm. The moth flies from April to October depending on the location. There is one generation per year. It is very similar to the more common foxglove pug but flies earlier in the year, has a much darker (often almost black) abdomen band, a sharper angled outer edge to the dark forewing band, and is cleaner and often brighter looking in colouration.

The larvae feed on Linaria vulgaris and cultivated Antirrhinum species. Larvae are found from May to October. It overwinters in the pupal stage.

Donington le Heath Manor House Museum, now 'The 1620s House and Garden at Donington le Heath' is a surviving example of a manor house built over seven hundred years ago in Donington le Heath, near the town of Coalville, Leicestershire. It was once owned by a relative of one of the Gunpowder plotters, and is now managed by Leicestershire County Council.

The Museum is accredited by the  Museums, Libraries and Archives Council (MLA)

History
The museum is based in a medieval manor house, believed to date back to around 1290. From the style of the architecture of the parts of the building and from tree-ring dating of some of the timbers still present, the present house at Donington was probably built between 1288 and 1295.

A house on this site and the present building were owned by the Charley Priory, then Ulverscroft Priory until the 1530s and several tenants are known to have lived there during this time, including Robert and Isabella de Herle, who probably built the present house.

Some of the features of the house, along with tree-ring dating of the timbers in the roof, show that the Manor House was heavily modernised around 1618.  It appears that at this time, the downstairs storerooms were converted into a kitchen and a parlour. A new roof was put on and the rooms upstairs were remodelled with a new internal staircase. Externally, the most obvious addition from this period are the large rectangular mullioned windows. At this time, the house was probably owned by John Digby of Seaton, whose nephew, Sir Everard Digby was a friend of Robert Catesby and was executed in 1606 for his part in the Gunpowder Plot.

From 1670 to 1960, the house was rented out as a tenant farm, with proceeds going to support a hospital and Orphanage in Osgathorpe. Leicestershire County Council bought the Manor House in 1965 after it had become a pig farm and fallen into disrepair. A large project was then undertaken to preserve the building for future generations. The Manor House was opened as a museum in 1973.

The Digby Family: Recussant Catholics and the Gunpowder Plot
Donington le Heath Manor House was tenanted by members of the Digby family from the early 15th century and they owned the site and its lands from the 1530s until 1627. The Digby's main seat was at Tilton on the Hill in east Leicestershire, but they held land in many other parishes.
Sir John Digby fought at the Bosworth Battlefield in 1485 for Henry Tudor.  When Henry defeated King Richard III and became King Henry VII he would have rewarded his supporters and it may be the case that he gave back the lands that the Digbys had lost in 1462 for their opposition to the Yorkist King Edward IV.
In the early 1600s the property was owned by John Digby of Seaton. John was a known recusant Catholic and he and his family were regularly fined and excommunicated from the Church of England. While John himself had been imprisoned in the Tower of London under suspicion of involvement n the Babington Plot against Elizabeth I, his nephew, Sir Everard Digby, had moved away having married a wealthy heiress in Buckinghamshire and had become a friend of Robert Catesby, the leader of the Gunpowder Plotters.  Sir Everard was asked to raise a Midlands rebellion after the Plotters had blown up Parliament and he was intending to kidnap the Princess Elizabeth, James I's daughter, from Coombe Abbey. He was hung drawn and quartered in 1606 for being one of the Catholic Plotters. John Digby died in 1627 and the Donington site was divided up between two families.

The House today
In 2016 the Site was refurbished as the 1620s House and Garden telling the story of the Catholic Digbys living in Protestant England. All the rooms are fully furnished as they might have been at the time and the mixture of original and replica furniture and household objects can be touched and used - with one exception. An ornately carved four poster bed has been connected with Leicester's Blue Boar Inn at which Richard III is thought to have stayed just before the Battle of Bosworth and has therefore been known as King Dick's Bed. Its style suggests a much later date than 1485 however, and it fits perfectly into a Jacobean family home.

The house is staffed by a team of knowledgeable volunteers who enjoy showing visitors the witchmarks carved to protect the household from evil spirits and encouraging them to explore oak cupboards and chests and to dress up in the costume of the time.

The house is currently open from 10.30 to 4.30 April to September and 10.30 til 3pm through October. Please visit the website for up to date opening times and event details. Entry to the site is by a ticket which lasts 12 months.

The Gardens.
The house is set in beautifully recreated early 17th century style gardens with flower gardens, an orchard, herb and vegetable gardens and a maze. Every tree and plant is labelled with information, which makes for very enjoyable and enlightening exploration.

Refreshments
The large stone barn houses a licensed coffee shop, which serves fabulous home made cakes, soups, sandwiches and a range of hot and cold drinks..

Events
The site is noted for its lively series of events including open air theatre, plant fairs, re-enactments, talks and children's activities throughout the year.

Christmas at the Manor and Candle-lit Carolling (December) make the most of the beautifully decorated house with carols and festive mummers plays. Visit www.doningtonleheath.org.uk/whats-on for more information on events.

Educational resources
The 1620s House and Garden also has an experienced education team that can offer a wide range of workshop and outreach sessions which aim to make learning fun for children in Leicestershire.

Friends
The Friends organisation for Donington exists to support the museum's further development through fundraising, and funds much of the work in the gardens.  The Friends of Donington le Heath Manor House is a Registered charity Number 1084997.

Peter John Cox (born 17 November 1955) is an English singer-songwriter, best known as the lead vocalist of the English pop duo Go West. As a solo artist, he scored three top 40 hits on the UK Singles Chart in the 1990s.

Early career and Go West
Peter John Cox sang in his school choir and later as a chorister at The Chapel Royal, Hampton Court Palace. In his early twenties, he worked in a cover band for the Mecca Organisation. In 1978, he joined Terra Nova, a band put together by former Manfred Mann's Earth Band members Chris Slade and Colin Pattenden; they released an album in 1980. While in residency in a Sheffield nightclub, Cox began writing with longtime collaborator Richard Drummie, with whom he eventually signed a publishing deal.

In 1982, Cox and Drummie formed the band Go West, with Cox as lead vocalist and Drummie on guitar and backing vocals. After Go West signed a deal with Chrysalis Records, "We Close Our Eyes" became a top 5 hit on the UK Singles Chart in 1985. Other Go West singles released that year included "Call Me" (1985) and "Don't Look Down". The following year, Go West was named 'Best Newcomer' at the 1986 Brit Awards.

In 1987, the band reached the top 40 in the US with the single "Don't Look Down – The Sequel". In 1990, Go West had a No. 8 hit in the US with "King of Wishful Thinking" from the film Pretty Woman. In 1992, the duo released their third studio album Indian Summer, which included "Faithful"; the song reached the top 20 in Canada and the United States.

Solo career
Cox moved to Los Angeles in 1993 to pursue a solo career. His self-titled debut studio album, Peter Cox, was released in 1997 to critical acclaim. Subsequent albums include Flame Still Burns (2001), Nine Miles High (2002), Desert Blooms (2002), Game for Fools (2005) and Motor City Music (2006). Cox also teamed up with Tony Hadley of Spandau Ballet on the album Tony Hadley vs Peter Cox & Go West, released in 2004.

In 2003, Cox replaced Then Jerico's Mark Shaw on the British reality television show Reborn in the USA after Shaw quit the series in the show's first few days. Even though Cox had achieved previous success across the Atlantic as the lead vocalist of Go West, he was able to appear on the show as he was unknown in the US as a solo artist. He was a favourite to win but was voted off in New York after he forgot the lyrics to the Norah Jones hit he was performing.

Other albums by Cox include The S1 Sessions (2010), Riding the Blinds (2012), and Damn the Brakes (2013).

Cox's voice has been described as "smooth as silk" with a "gritty underbelly".

Ehrlichiosis ewingii infection is an infectious disease caused by an intracellular bacteria, Ehrlichia ewingii. The infection is transmitted to humans by the tick, Amblyomma americanum. This tick can also transmit Ehrlichia chaffeensis, the bacteria that causes human monocytic ehrlichiosis (HME).

Symptoms and signs
Patients can present with fever, headache, myalgias, and malaise. Laboratory tests may reveal thrombocytopenia, leukopenia, and evidence of liver damage.

Mechanism
Humans contract the disease after a bite by an infected tick of the species Amblyomma americanum.
Those with an underlying immunodeficiency (such as HIV) appear to be at greater risk of contracting the disease. Compared to HME, ewingii ehrlichiosis has a decreased incidence of complications.

Like Anaplasma phagocytophilum, the causative agent of human granulocytic ehrlichiosis, Ehrlichia ewingii infects neutrophils. Infection with E. ewingii may delay neutrophil apoptosis.

Diagnosis
In endemic areas, a high index of suspicion is warranted, especially with a known exposure to ticks. The diagnosis can be confirmed by using PCR. A peripheral blood smear can also be examined for intracytoplasmic inclusions called morulae.

Treatment
The treatment of choice is doxycycline.

Eupithecia phoeniceata, the cypress pug, is a moth of the family Geometridae. The species was first described by Jules Pierre Rambur in 1834 and it can be found in Europe.

The wingspan is 18–22 mm. The ground colour of the forewings is grey or pale greyish ochreous conspicuously patterned with a characteristic extremely oblique pale median fascia, which makes the wing appear narrower than it really is. There are blackish-marked veins near the termen. Forewings with a small dark discal spot. The forewings are distinctly elongate. The hindwings have variable markings but usually resemble the forewings. The thorax is grey, with an anterior black collar.

The moths flies from August to September depending on the location.

The larvae feed on Cupressus macrocarpa and other cultivars.

Eupithecia dodoneata, the oak-tree pug, is a moth of the family Geometridae. The species can be found in Europe. Local occurrences are found in Asia Minor, the Caucasus as well as in Morocco. In the Pyrenees and the Alps, it rises to altitudes of 1000 metres. The species prefers dry oak and oak mixed forests.

The wingspan is 19–22 mm. The ground colour of the forewings is usually light grey, sometimes slightly brownish on dusted. There are several dark grey crosslines  are wavy and often in pairs. The outer cross line near the front edge with a sharp, inward-pointing V. The midfield is brighter in some  specimens and framed by a thin dark band. The black  median stain has an oval shape. The hind wings are slightly lighter than the forewings and have also several dark designs and a small black middle spot.
 Adult caterpillars are brownish and show on the back very clear reddish-brown triangular spots, the tip of which is directed forward.
The pupa is coloured black-brown and equipped with two strong and six thin hook bristles on the cremaster. A reliable determination should be made by specialists, and a genital morphological analysis is also recommended for a certain assignment.

The moths flies from May to June depending on the location.

The larvae feed on Crataegus and Quercus species.

Muallaf is a 2008 Malaysian Malay-language drama film directed by Yasmin Ahmad. It tells a tale of three souls finding solace in religion. This is Yasmin Ahmad's fifth film after Rabun, Sepet, Gubra and Mukhsin.

Cast

Footnote:
  Brian Yap's character was initially planned to be named Robert Ng.

Closure
 It was not clear what had happened to Rohana. However, it could be assumed that Rohani had finally met up with Rohana considering that she had volunteered to take care of her stroke-hit father who had snatched away Rohana earlier.
 It was not shown explicitly whether Brian was attracted to Rohani or the religion of Islam itself. If Brian was in love with Rohani, this would probably mark the first time Yasmin concealed the romantic relationship in films that contain the agenda of love.

Screening
As Yasmin's previous films, Muallaf opened with the usual Islamic verse "In the name of God, the most Gracious and most Merciful" (Bismillahirahmanirrahim). What set Muallaf apart from her previous works was that the verse was displayed in Chinese in this movie, i.e. "奉大仁大慈真主的尊名" (Pinyin: fèng dà rén dà cí Zhēn Zhǔ de zūn míng). It was understood that the verse would be displayed in Tamil in her next film, Talentime.

As Yasmin's second feature film, Sepet, Muallaf was first screened in Singapore instead of Malaysia, where it was shot. The film ran for 4 weeks in Singapore from 27 November to 24 December 2008, recording turnouts more than that of Sepet. Muallaf was first denied screening in Malaysian cinemas due to the Malaysian censorship authorities request of key scenes to be cut, thus rendering the story meaningless. However, 1 year later, Muallaf finally opened in Malaysia nationwide on 24/12/09 with a few dialogues muted.

Survivor in Love is the second and final album by Italy-based act Baltimora. The album, released in 1987, was only issued in select countries, such as Italy, Germany, UK, Japan, and Mexico. It was later re-released in 2003 on CD to many more countries, including the United States and Canada due to the current dance/pop uprise in recent years, as well as for Baltimora fans who had not received the original LP in their home countries. The reason the album was not released in certain countries in 1987 was due to the poor sales of the singles (except "Tarzan Boy") on the group's previous album, Living in the Background.

"Key Key Karimba", "Global Love" and "Call Me in the Heart of the Night" were released as singles from the album.

"Call Me in the Heart of the Night" was included on the 1988 Dutch various artists compilation Summer 1988 - Flying High! - The Euro Hits Collection.

The Hill Prince Stakes is a Grade II American Thoroughbred horse race for three-year-olds run over a distance of one and one-eight miles (9 furlongs) on the turf annually in October at Belmont Park in Elmont, New York. The event offers a purse of $400,000.

History

The race is named for Christopher Chenery's Hall of Fame colt, Hill Prince.

The inaugural running took place as the Hill Prince Handicap on 26 October 1975 and was run at a distance of a mile and three-eights. It was won on a disqualification by Gustave Ring's homebred colt Don Jack.

The following year the event was scheduled in June at a distance of  miles.

The Hill Prince Stakes was hosted by Aqueduct Racetrack in Queens, New York in 1979, 1980, and again in 1982.

In 1981 was classified Grade III by the American Graded Stakes Committee.

The race was run in two divisions in 1982. The second division was won by Larida, the only filly to have won this event.

The event has been moved off the turf due to track conditions in 1998, 2003 and 2009 but has not had its classification downgraded.

Primarily the event had been scheduled in early spring but in 2014 NYRA moved the event to October and increased the stakes significantly to $500,000. In 2018 the event was upgraded to Grade II status.
