Aiza Gazuyeva (1983 – November 29, 2001) was a Chechen woman, known for committing a suicide attack that killed General Gaidar Gadzhiyev, a major general of the Russian Army, on November 29, 2001. Despite being personally motivated and not political, it was one of the first notable shahidka attacks to occur in Russia, and Gazuyeva became a semi-legendary figure among in Chechen society.

Background
Aiza Gazuyeva (also transliterated as Gazueva and variably known as Aizan, Elza, Luisa or Luiza) is believed to have been born around 1983, and between 18 or 20 years-old at the time of her death. Reportedly Gazuyeva had lost 16 relatives in the Second Chechen War, including her husband (to whom she was married only two months earlier), two brothers, and a cousin. Her disabled brother, who had lost both legs to a land mine in the First Chechen War, was shot dead without reason by Russian troops near their family home. The commander of the Russian forces in the area, General Gaidar Gadzhiyev, was very unpopular among locals and was commonly accused of committing atrocities against civilians. Allegedly Gadzhiyev had summoned Gazuyeva, where he brutally killed her arrested husband with a knife and then pulling her head into the gaping stomach wound. According to another version, the general told Gazuyeva that he killed her husband with his own hands during an interrogation.

Attack
On November 29, 2001, Gazuyeva approached a group of Russian soldiers including General Gadzhiyev in front of the military commandant's office (Russian: komendatura). Reportedly, her last words were: "Do you recognize me?" or "Do you still remember me?" to which Gadzhiyev replied: "I have no time to talk to you!". After the general's answer, Gazuyeva detonated a bundle of hand grenades hidden under her clothes. Gazuyeva and two of Gadzhiyev's bodyguards died instantly, and two other soldiers were injured. Gadzhiyev, who was wearing a flak jacket, was critically wounded (reportedly losing both of his eyes and one arm) and died of his injuries days later on 1 December.

Aftermath
A wave of severe reprisals by Russian forces were launched against Gazuyeva's family and the local population. Soldiers blew up the home of Gazuyeva and her parents, as well as the houses belonging to at least four other families, while several men from Gazuyev's family were detained and beaten. Soon after the attack, 72 people were detained in the city of Urus-Martan and some of them were reported to having been disappeared. One day after Gadzhiyev's death, several people were detained in the village of Alkhan-Yurt in Urus-Martanovsky District, and some of them were later found murdered. On December 13, disfigured bodies of several men killed by explosive devices were discovered in Chechnya and later identified as residents of three villages in the Urus-Martan region who had disappeared early in December, including four who were among those detained in Alkhan-Yurt: Lom-Ali Yunusov, his relative Musa Yunusov, Shamil Dzhemaldayev and Aslan Taramov.

Canarsie High School, which opened in 1964, is a defunct public high school in the Brooklyn neighborhood of Canarsie in New York City. Closed in 2011, the building currently operates as Canarsie Educational Campus, housing several smaller high schools.

Closing
Under the Impact Schools initiative in 2004, Canarsie High School received increased police and security presence. In 2007, it was announced Canarsie would close because it "was in such disarray that the only way to fix it would be to shut it down, replacing it with several smaller schools on the same campus. The school had received the lowest possible grades (F and U) under the Department of Education's first citywide progress reports. This was part of a trend in the city beginning in the 1990s and embraced by the administration of then-Mayor Michael Bloomberg to convert failing large high schools into educational campuses. For the 2007-2008 academic year, the school stopped admitting new students. Canarsie High School graduated 40 percent of its final class of 358 students in the Spring of 2011.

Student demographics
84.51% Black or African American, 11.47% Hispanic or Latino, 2.07% White non-Hispanic, 1.66% Asian and 0.28% Native American. The student/teacher ratio is 22.0. The school is part of School District #18.

Current schools
Three schools, High School for Innovation in Advertising and Media, High School for Medical Professions, and Urban Action Academy, are currently operating in the Canarsie campus.

Claudia Jung (born Ute Krummenast; 12 April 1964) is a German Schlager singer and politician.

Biography

Jung was born in Ratingen, North Rhine-Westphalia. From 1974 till 1980, she attended the school Liebfrauenschule in Ratingen. As a child she took guitar lessons and during her schooltime she sang in the Amt-Angerland-Chor. Before her career in show business she worked as a photo lab technician, a dental assistant and a tourist guide in Italy. Every now and then she performed as a non-professional singer.

In 1984, she met the music producer Adam Schairer with whom she subsequently made experimental recordings. She made her first single releases in collaboration with Schairer and the composer and producer Jean Frankfurter as well as the lyricist Erich Offierowski. The debut album Halt' mich fest ("Hold me tight") was released in 1988. Since 1999 her albums have been produced by Hans Singer with André Franke as co-producer.

During her career, Claudia Jung has achieved multiple gold and platinum records. She has also been awarded various prizes such as the Echo-Preis, Goldene Stimmgabel and the Fred-Jay-Textdichterpreis. Jung has had duets with many international stars including Richard Clayderman (e.g. "Je t'aime mon amour"), Rosanna Perinic ("Domani l'amore vincerà"), Nino de Angelo ("Hand in Hand") and Cliff Richard ("Mistletoe and Wine"). She sings mainly in her native language, German, but has also interpreted songs in English, French and Italian.

In 2004, she recorded a duet "Heut' fliegt ein Engel durch die Nacht" with her daughter Anna.

Since November 2007, Claudia Jung has been the protector of a childcare project for traumatized children who have lost faith in themselves, other people and the surrounding world.

In 2008, she debuted as actress, appearing as the female lead in the television series of the ARD (First German channel): Das Musikhotel am Wolfgangsee (The Musical hotel on Lake Wolfgang).

On 2 March 2008 Claudia Jung - officially Ute Singer - was elected as representative of the group Freie Wähler in the county council of Pfaffenhofen. She also works as a councilwoman of the Christliche Wählergemeinschaft in the community of Gerolsbach. In the state election on 28 September 2008 Claudia Jung was elected as representative of the Freie Wähler in the Landtag of Bavaria.

During her career, Claudia Jung has sold more than 445,000 records, most albums. The most commercially successful album was the same name "Claudia Jung".

Private life
Claudia Jung's first husband was her former manager Jürgen Evers, whom she married in Düsseldorf on 1 September 1993. The marriage ended the following year and they were divorced. At the same time Jung met current husband Hans Singer, whom she married in 1997. The couple has a daughter, Anna Charlotte, born on 4 August 1997. Hans Singer has a son, David, a few years older. The family has lived since 1998 in a farm in Gerolsbach, district of Pfaffenhofen an der Ilm (Upper Bavaria). They have many animals living on the farm (about fifty between horses, goats, dogs and cats, etc.) Claudia Jung is an animal-friend, respecting and loving nature, and among her passions is vegetarianism.

In early 1994, Claudia Jung, following a bad fall from her horse (equestrianism is her favorite sport), suffered a double fracture of the skull base. Some months later she also suffered a paralysis of the vocal cords, which forced her into a period of rest and to halt her touring. Her comeback in September of that year, with the song "Je t'aime mon amour" in tandem with the pianist Richard Clayderman, however, was phenomenal. This romantic ballad (in German and French version) is one of her greatest hits. In 2005, Claudia Jung again suffered a paralysis of the vocal cords, which once again forced her for a few months to halt some of her touring.

Robert Lowe Hall, Baron Roberthall  (6 March 1901 – 17 September 1988) was an Australian-born economist who served as chief economic advisor to the British government from 1947 to 1961.

Life
Robert Hall was born in Tenterfield, New South Wales, Australia, in 1901. His father, Edgar Hall, was an English mining engineer. while his mother, Rose Helen, was a first-generation Australian, whose father, A.K. Cullen, was Scottish. He was brought up in Queensland, where he attended Ipswich State High School. He obtained a degree in engineering at the University of Queensland, before becoming a Rhodes scholar at the University of Oxford in 1923. Having obtained a first class degree in Modern Greats in 1926, he was appointed to an economics lectureship at Trinity College, Oxford (1926–47). He was a fellow from 1927 to 1950 and an honorary fellow from 1958. In 1927 he was junior dean. He was a fellow of Nuffield College, Oxford 1938-47 and a visiting fellow, 1961–64.

During the Second World War he worked in the Ministry of Supply in Washington, D.C., and on the Board of Trade. In 1947, he succeeded
James Meade as the Director of the Economic Section of the Cabinet Office of the British government; from 1953 until 1961 he was chief economic advisor to successive Chancellors of the Exchequer.

Hall was appointed a Companion of the Order of the Bath (CB) in the 1950 New Year Honours, he was appointed a Knight Commander of the Order of St Michael and St George (KCMG) in the 1954 New Year Honours. Following the announcement in June 1969 that he was to be made a life peer, Hall changed his name by Deed Poll to Roberthall on 25 September 1969 and was created Baron Roberthall, of Silverspur in the State of Queensland and Commonwealth of Australia, and of Trenance, in the County of Cornwall on 28 October 1969. In the 1970s and 1980s he served actively in the House of Lords, latterly as a member of the Social Democratic Party. He was president of the Royal Economic Society from 1958 to 1960. He was invited to give the Rede lecture (on "Planning") in 1962.

Hall retired shortly after Selwyn Lloyd's first budget in 1961. He was politically on the Left but thought Conservative governments managed the economy better. He favoured Keynesian deficit finance, but had grown increasingly worried about inflation. He had opposed ROBOT (the plan to float the pound in the early 1950s), but with the disappearance of the dollar shortage came to favour floating after all, although he never argued for it very strongly. He wanted an incomes policy, and came to feel that unemployment was too low and that British workers and managers were not efficient enough.

He was principal of Hertford College, Oxford, from 1964 to 1967.

In 1932 he married Laura Margaret, daughter of G.E. Linfoot, an Oxford graduate and later a fellow of Somerville College, Oxford; there were two daughters, Felicity and Anthea, to the marriage, which was dissolved in 1968. In the same year Hall married Perilla Thyme Nowell-Smith, a divorcee and daughter of Sir Richard Southwell, FRS, who survived him.

Quotes
'If intuition were given the "scientific" name of "non-statistical inference", no-one would look down his nose at it.' (Quoted in John Brunner, 'The New Idolatry', Rebirth of Britain : a symposium of essays by eighteen writers, London : Pan, 1964, pg.38.)

Laibacher Zeitung (meaning Ljubljana News in English) was the largest and most influential newspaper in Ljubljana in the 18th and 19th centuries. It was published daily in German from 1778 to 1918.

History and profile
Laibacher Zeitung was established in 1778. In its first period, it was published with the supplement Intelligenzblatt aimed at spreading knowledge among the general public. After 1804, it was published with the supplement Wochenblatt zum Nutzen und Vergnügen, replaced in 1818 by the supplement Illyrisches Blatt, which was then published until 1849. Illyrisches Blatt was the center of Slovene cultural creativity. Its contributors were the Slovene national poet France Prešeren and other influential Slovene intellectuals such as Matija Čop, Miha Kastelic, Franc Malavašič, and Janez Bleiweis.

After the establishment of the Slovene-language newspaper Kmetijske in rokodelske novice in 1842, the influence of the Laibacher Zeitung declined because it gradually became the herald of the German-speaking community in the Slovene lands. The paper ceased publication in 1918.

Biography
Johansson received a master's degree in economics from the Stockholm School of Economics in 1979 and an MBA from the Stanford University Graduate School of Business in 1986. During this time, he was part of Bankers Trust's graduate training program and worked for Chase Manhattan Bank.

He later went to work at Morgan Stanley Europe and became a vice chairman and member of their management committee.  Johansson joined Morgan Stanley as a summer associate in 1985.

From 2002 to 2005, Johansson was the global head of institutional equities at Morgan Stanley Europe. In August 2005, he was named co-head of combined sales and trading, consisting of the Institutional Equity Division and the Fixed Income Division.

Gwilym Iwan Jones (3 May 1904 – 25 January 1995) was a Welsh photographer and anthropologist.  His photographs of life in Nigeria in the 1930s, taken whilst serving as a colonial District Officer, led to an interest in ethnology and a second career as an academic at the University of Cambridge.

Life
Jones was born in Cape Colony and grew up in Chile and England, studying at St. John's School, Leatherhead before winning a scholarship to Jesus College, Oxford.  He then worked for the Colonial Service in Nigeria (1926–1946), serving as District Officer for Bende and the surrounding area.  He became interested in the culture of the peoples of southeastern Nigeria, using a Rolleiflex camera to build up an extensive record of life in the area at the time. Amongst other topics, his photographs show masks being used in performance, and shrines. He married Ursula Whittall in 1939 and his interest in ethnology led him to return to England as Lecturer in Anthropology at the University of Cambridge, a post he held in conjunction with a Fellowship of Jesus College, Cambridge.  He was a noted scholar on African issues, returning on various occasions to Nigeria for research.  He retired in 1971, but continued to write and remained active within Jesus College.

Grzegorz Gilewski (born 24 February 1973 in Radom, Poland) was a Polish football referee. Gilewski started his professional referee career in 1998 in the Polish Football Association. He started his international career as a referee for UEFA in 2001, overseeing matches in both Intertoto Cup and Europa League. Three year later Gilewski took his first match for FIFA, working World Cup qualifying.

Bribery scandal
In October 2008, FIFA announced Gilewski was on the list of prospective Referees for the 2010 FIFA World Cup. On 9 November 2008 Gilewski was detained by CBA in an investigation related to match-fixing in Polish football. He was charged the next day with three crimes: match-fixing, accepting bribes worth 120,000 PLN (ca. 30,000 EUR) and participation in an organised criminal group.

This page lists trials related to the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.

Zacarias Moussaoui

Zacarias Moussaoui was in jail in Minnesota when the September 11 attacks unfolded. On December 11, 2001, Moussaoui was indicted by a federal grand jury in United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia on six federal charges: conspiracy to commit acts of terrorism transcending national boundaries, conspiracy to commit aircraft piracy, conspiracy to destroy aircraft, conspiracy to use weapons of mass destruction, conspiracy to murder United States employees, and conspiracy to destroy property. The indictment of Zacarias Moussaoui named as unindicted co-conspirators Ramzi Bin al-Shibh and Mustafa al-Hawsawi, among others, for their role in the attack "to murder thousands of innocent people in New York, Virginia and Pennsylvania."

On January 12, 2002, Moussaoui refused to enter any plea to the charges and so Judge Leonie Brinkema entered pleas of not guilty. A hearing was held on April 22, 2002, to determine his right to self-representation, for by then Moussaoui had declined the assistance of his court-appointed attorneys, and asked to defend himself. At another hearing on June 13, 2002, Brinkema deemed him competent to defend himself and allowed the case to move forward. However, Moussaoui later requested the occasional assistance of attorneys to help him with technical issues.

Moussaoui admitted his involvement with al-Qaeda, but claimed he was not involved in the 9/11 attacks. Rather, he claimed that he was preparing for a separate attack. Khalid Sheikh Mohammed had earlier told investigators that Moussaoui met with him prior to September 11, but that he, Mohammed, chose not to use him. No evidence directly linking Moussaoui to the 9/11 attacks has yet been released.

The trial highlighted a tension in the United States between the judiciary and national security. Moussaoui made requests for access to confidential documents and the right to call captive al-Qaeda members as witnesses, notably bin al-Shibh, Khalid Shaikh Mohammed, and Mustafa Ahmed al-Hawsawi. Both requests were claimed by prosecutors to be potential threats to national security. Brinkema denied the motion to access confidential documents, although Moussaoui was permitted to use several al-Qaeda prisoners as witnesses.

Brinkema put the death penalty "off limits" on October 2, 2003, in reply to government defiance of her order to provide access to Moussaoui's witnesses. The Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals reversed the Brinkema ruling, holding that the US government could use summaries of interviews/interrogations of these witnesses. On March 21, 2005, the United States Supreme Court, without comment, declined to hear Moussaoui's pre-trial appeal of the Fourth Circuit's decision, returning the case to Brinkema.

On April 22, 2005, in one of the court sessions near the end of that phase of the proceedings, Moussaoui surprised the whole audience by pleading guilty to all charges, while at the same time denying having any intention to produce a massacre like 9/11. He said that it was not his conspiracy, and that he intended to free Sheikh Omar Abdel-Rahman. According to Moussaoui, his master plan was to hijack a Boeing 747-400, since the plane is one of a few that could reach Afghanistan from the US without any intermediate stops.

On February 6, 2006, Moussaoui shouted "I am al-Qaeda. They do not represent me; they are Americans," referring to his attorneys while being escorted from the courtroom in front of 120 potential jurors.

In March 2006, during the Moussaoui trial, several premises made headlines, including FBI agents stating that the bureau was aware, years before the attacks in 2001, that al-Qaeda planned to use planes to destroy important buildings, and Brinkema's decision to consider dismissal of the death penalty. Brinkema announced her decision in response to a violation by the attorney for the Transportation Security Administration, Carla Martin, of a pretrial order barring witnesses from exposure to any opening statements or trial testimony. Martin had e-mailed seven Federal Aviation Administration officials describing opening statements of the prosecution and commentary on government witnesses from the start of the testimony, effectively 'coaching the witnesses'. Brinkema said, "In all the years I've been on the bench, I have never seen such an egregious violation of a rule on witnesses," and described the situation as a "significant error by the government affecting the... integrity of the criminal justice system of the United States in the context of a death case." However, days later, under significant media attention, Brinkema decided not to dismiss the case, and instead ruled that witnesses could not testify and the government would be allowed to continue to seek the death penalty.

On March 27, 2006, Moussaoui testified that he and "shoe bomber" Richard Reid had planned to crash a hijacked airplane into the White House in the September 11 attacks. No direct connection between Moussaoui and Reid had ever before been alleged, and this testimony contradicted earlier testimony by Moussaoui that he had been intended for an operation after September 11. When asked why he had previously lied, he stated that "You're allowed to lie for jihad. You're allowed any technique to defeat your enemy." There has been commentary in the mainstream media that Moussaoui's preference to die as an identified 9/11 plotter rather than receive a life sentence as a member of an unrealized scheme throws doubt on his self-admitted connection to 9/11.

Since Moussaoui was in jail in Minnesota when the September 11 attacks unfolded in seeking a death sentence, prosecutors were required to prove that he "intentionally participated in an act... and the victim died as a direct result of the act." Moussaoui admitted he knew about the attacks and did nothing to stop them.

Having entered a guilty plea, Moussaoui was eligible for the death penalty. Germany said it would not release evidence against Moussaoui unless the US promised not to seek death as punishment. On April 27, 2005, French Justice Minister Dominique Perben said, "When France gave elements of information about Mr Moussaoui to the American justice, I obtained a written engagement of the United States not to use these elements to require or execute the death penalty."

On March 13, 2006, Brinkema recessed the death-penalty case against Moussaoui because of a breach against the rules on witnesses. Seven FAA officials were previously sent emails by TSA attorney Carla Martin outlining the prosecution's opening statements and providing commentary on government witnesses from the first day of testimony. Martin was placed on administrative leave over the incident and may face contempt of court charges. On March 14, 2006, Brinkema ruled that the prosecution could continue to seek the death penalty against Moussaoui, but could not use key witnesses coached by Martin. On April 3, 2006, the jury in his case decided that Moussaoui was eligible for the death penalty.

At Moussaoui's sentencing trial, FBI agent Greg Jones testified that prior to the attacks, he urged his supervisor, Michael Maltbie, "to prevent Zacarias Moussaoui from flying a plane into the World Trade Center." Maltbie had refused to act on 70 requests from another agent, Harry Samit, to obtain a warrant to search Moussaoui's computer.

On May 3, 2006, the jury reached a verdict: that Moussaoui be sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole. Moussaoui was sentenced to six consecutive life terms on May 4, as Judge Brinkema expressed her belief that the sentence was an appropriate one, inasmuch as it would deprive Moussaoui of "martyrdom in a great big bang of glory" and of the "chance to speak again", after Moussaoui entered the courtroom proclaiming his victory and asserting that the United States would "never get Osama bin Laden". As he was leaving the courtroom he said, "America, you lost and I won." And he clapped his hands twice. A single juror saved Moussaoui from death. The foreman of the 12-person federal jury told The Washington Post that the panel voted 11-1, 10-2 and 10-2 in favor of the death penalty on the three charges for which Moussaoui was eligible for execution. A unanimous vote on any one of the three terrorism charges was required to return a death sentence.

On May 8, 2006, Moussaoui filed papers with the federal court in Alexandria, Virginia requesting to withdraw his guilty plea, stating that his earlier claim of participation in the September 11 plot was a "complete fabrication." He said that he was "extremely surprised" that he was not sentenced to death. "I now see that it is possible that I can receive a fair trial even with Americans as jurors," he said. However, federal sentencing rules forbid pleas to be withdrawn after a sentence has already been executed, and Moussaoui had already waived his rights to appeal.

On May 13, 2006, a group of US marshals ordered Moussaoui out of his holding cell in Alexandria, Virginia, and flew him, via Conair, from Virginia to Colorado to begin serving his sentence at the supermax United States Penitentiary Administrative Maximum Facility, located in Florence, Colorado. The facility - considered the most secure federal penitentiary—is called the "Alcatraz of the Rockies". He is federal prisoner number 51427-054.

On July 31, 2006, the 1,202 exhibits presented during the case of United States v. Zacarias Moussaoui were posted online, marking the first time the exhibits of a criminal case in US courts were so published.

On November 20, 2007, Judge Brinkema publicly stated that the US government had provided incorrect information about evidence in the Moussaoui trial and that due to those actions, she was considering ordering a new trial in a related terrorism case, that of Ali al-Timimi, a Virginia Muslim cleric. Brinkema said that she could no longer trust the CIA and other government agencies on how they represent classified evidence in terror cases after Moussaoui case prosecutors admitted that the CIA had assured her that no videotapes or audiotapes existed of interrogations of certain high-profile terrorism detainees, but later, in a letter made public Nov. 13, two such videotapes and one audio tape were made known.

Mounir El Motassadeq

Mounir El Motassadeq, a Moroccan living in Germany who belonged to the Hamburg cell apartment owned by Mohamed Atta and lived in by many other people who would later go on to lead the September 11, 2001, attacks, in February 2003 was convicted in Germany of over 3,000 counts of accessory to murder in direct relation to the September 11 attacks, but the conviction was rejected on appeal. Though the German Justice Ministry pressed the United States to allow Ramzi bin al-Shibh to testify, the US refused, and the verdict and sentence were set aside.

Motassadeq was re-tried and convicted on August 19, 2005, of "membership in a "terrorist organization". That conviction was also rejected in appeal.,,,

On February 7, 2006, Germany's Federal Constitutional Court ordered an early release of Motassadeq. The highest court of Germany ruled there was an absence of proof that Motassadeq was informed about the September 11 terrorist plot.

On November 15, 2006, the German Federal Supreme Court ruled on the appeals: They considered the evidence as sufficient to prove that Motassadeq knew about and was involved in the preparation of the plan to hijack the planes and is hence guilty of accessory in 246 counts of murder. This is the number of victims that died in the planes but does not include the victims on ground. The Oberlandesgericht (state supreme court) in Hamburg then took up the trial again in order to decide on the sentencing. Two days later, the Federal Supreme Court also revoked the release order and Motassadeq was arrested again. On January 8, 2007, he was sentenced by the Oberlandesgericht Hamburg to 15 years in prison, the maximum sentence possible under German law. The Federal Constitutional Court of Germany did not accept to revise his case. On May 2 the Federal Court of Justice of Germany rejected a plea for revision. His lawyers are currently thinking about both calling upon the European Court of Human Rights and trying to get the case reopened - his two ultimate legal choices left.

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, Ramzi bin al-Shibh, Mustafa Ahmad al-Hawsawi, Ali Abd al-Aziz Ali and Walid Bin Attash

On February 11, 2008, US Department of Defense charged Khalid Sheikh Mohammed as well as Ramzi bin al-Shibh, Mustafa Ahmad al-Hawsawi, Ali Abd al-Aziz Ali and Walid Bin Attash for the September 11 attacks under the military commission system, as established under the Military Commissions Act of 2006.

These individuals were arrested in 2002-2003 in Pakistan and held by CIA in undisclosed locations.

On September 6, 2006, American President George W. Bush confirmed, for the first time, that the CIA had held "high-value detainees" in secret interrogation centers. He also announced that fourteen senior captives, including Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, were being transferred from CIA custody, to military custody, at Guantanamo Bay and that these fourteen captives could now expect to face charges before Guantanamo military commissions.

In a September 29, 2006, speech, President Bush stated "Once captured, Abu Zubaydah, Ramzi bin al-Shibh, and Khalid Sheikh Mohammed were taken into custody of the Central Intelligence Agency. The questioning of these and other suspected terrorists provided information that helped us protect the American people. They helped us break up a cell of Southeast Asian terrorist operatives that had been groomed for attacks inside the United States. They helped us disrupt an al Qaeda operation to develop anthrax for terrorist attacks. They helped us stop a planned strike on a US Marine camp in Djibouti, and to prevent a planned attack on the US Consulate in Karachi, and to foil a plot to hijack passenger planes and to fly them into Heathrow Airport and London's Canary Wharf."

In March 2007, Mohammed testified before a closed-door hearing in Guantanamo Bay. According to transcripts of the hearing released by the Pentagon, he said "I was responsible for the 9/11 operation, from A to Z." The transcripts also show him confessing to: organizing the 1993 World Trade Center bombing; the Bali nightclub bombings; and Richard Reid's attempted shoe bombing. He also confessed to planning attacks on Heathrow Airport and Big Ben clock tower in London, Pearl's murder in 2002, and planned assassination attempts on Pope John Paul II, Pervez Musharraf and Bill Clinton.

Following the case's transfer back to the military commission, the Department of Defense announced, on May 31, 2011, capital charges have been re-filed against Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, Ramzi bin al-Shibh, Mustafa Ahmad al-Hawsawi, Ali Abd al-Aziz Ali and Walid Bin Attash. The defendants are charged with the following offenses:  1.conspiracy, 2.murder in violation of the law of war, 3.attacking civilians, 4.attacking civilian objects, 5.intentionally causing serious bodily injury, 6.destruction of property in violation of the law of war, 7.hijacking aircraft and 8.terrorism.  The charges against them list 167 overt acts allegedly committed by the defendants in furtherance of the September 11 events". The charges include 2,973 individual counts of murder—one for each person killed in the 9/11 attacks.The defendants were arraigned at Guantanamo Bay on May 5, 2012.

The US government is seeking the death penalty, which would require the unanimous agreement of the commission judges.

Possible guilty plea

On December 8, 2008, Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and his four co-defendants told the judge stating that they wished to confess and plead guilty to all charges. The plea will be delayed until mental competency hearings for Mustafa Ahmad al-Hawsawi and Ramzi bin al-Shibh can be held; Mohammed said, "We want everyone to plead together." Spencer Ackerman, writing in the Washington Independent, reported that Presiding Officer Stephen Henley had to consider whether he was authorized to accept guilty pleas.

Transfer of the case to a civilian court
On 13 November 2009 US Attorney General Eric Holder announced that Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, Ramzi Bin al-Shibh, Walid bin Attash, Ali Abdul Aziz Ali and Mustafa Ahmed al-Hawsawi will all be transferred to the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York for trial. He also expressed confidence that an impartial jury would be found "to ensure a fair trial in New York."

On 21 January 2010 all charges have been withdrawn in the military commissions against the five suspects in the Sept. 11, 2001 terror attacks being held at Guantanamo Bay. The charges were dropped "without prejudice" - a procedural move that allows federal officials to transfer the men to trial in a civilian court and also leaves the door open, if necessary, to bring charges again in military commissions.

In February 2010 Fox News reported that the legal counsel of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, and the legal counsel of several other captives, was halted without warning.
The attorneys had made the trip to Guantanamo in the usual manner—a trip that requires advising authorities of the purpose of their trip. However, upon their arrival in Guantanamo, they were informed they were no longer allowed to see their clients. They were told that letters to their clients, telling them that they had traveled to Cuba, to see them, could not be delivered, as they were no longer authorized to write to their clients. Camp authorities told them that since the charges against their clients had been dropped, while the Department of Justice figured out where to charge them, they no longer needed legal counsel. Camp authorities told them that, henceforward, all access to the captives had to be approved by Jay Johnson, the Department of Defense's General Counsel.
Fox reported that during earlier periods when the charges had been dropped the captives had still been allowed to see their attorneys. Fox claimed that questions they asked camp authorities lead to the captives' access to their attorneys being restored.

Transfer of the case back to a military commission
On 7 January 2011 US President Barack Obama signed National Defense Authorization Act which explicitly prohibits the use of US Defense Department funds to transfer detainees from Guantanamo Bay to the United States or other countries. It also bars Pentagon funds from being used to build facilities in the United States to house detainees, as the president originally suggested. The move essentially barred the administration from trying detainees in civilian courts. The president objected to the provision in the bill before signing it, calling it "a dangerous and unprecedented challenge to critical executive branch authority" but also said his team would work with the US Congress to "seek repeal of these restrictions."

On 4 April 2011 Attorney General Eric Holder announced that Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and four other 9/11 terror suspects will face a military trial at the Guantanamo Bay detention facility. In announcing his decision, Holder blasted Congress for imposing restrictions on the Justice Department's ability to bring the men to New York City for civilian trials. "After thoroughly studying the case, it became clear to me that the best venue for prosecution was in federal court. I stand by that decision today," Holder said. "As the president has said, those unwise and unwarranted restrictions (imposed by Congress) undermine our counter-terrorism efforts and could harm our national security. Decisions about who, where and how to prosecute have always been - and must remain - the responsibility of the executive branch." Holder insisted, "We were prepared to bring a powerful case against Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and his four co-conspirators - one of the most well-researched and documented cases I have ever seen in my decades of experience as a prosecutor." He added, "Had this case proceeded in Manhattan or in an alternative venue in the United States, as I seriously explored in the past year, I am confident that our justice system would have performed with the same distinction that has been its hallmark for over 200 years." Holder had promised to seek the death penalty for each of the five men and on 4 April he warned that it is an "open question" if such a penalty can be imposed by a military commission if the defendants plead guilty.

Lexington, Kentucky was a city of importance during the American Civil War, with notable residents participating on both sides of the conflict. These included John C. Breckinridge, Confederate generals John Hunt Morgan and Basil W. Duke, and the Todd family, who mostly served the Confederacy although one, Mary Todd Lincoln, was the first lady of the United States, wife of President Abraham Lincoln.

Prominent families

Among the well known of Lexington's families were the Todds.  Abraham Lincoln's wife Mary Todd Lincoln was born there on December 13, 1818.  She left in 1839 from the family home to live with her sister in Springfield, Illinois, where she would meet Abraham Lincoln in 1842.  She went back to Lexington in 1847 to introduce her family to Lincoln on their way to Washington, D.C. for Lincoln's one term as Congressman.  The Lincolns returned twice more to the city in 1849 and 1850, the latter to cope with the death of a son.  The Todd family was split apart by the war. Mary's father Richard Smith Todd had fourteen children, of whom six chose the Union side, while eight others went for the Confederacy.  Save for Levi Todd, the Todds that remained in Lexington during the war were pro-Confederate, and did not hide their preference.

Also affected were the Breckinridges and Clays.  Robert J. Breckinridge was called "the strongest and sturdiest champion of the Union south of the Ohio".  However his nephew John C. Breckinridge, Vice President of the United States under Lincoln's predecessor James Buchanan, two of his sons (Willie and Robert Jr.), and a son-in law joined the Confederacy.  Of Henry Clay seven grandsons, three sided with the North, and four went for the South.

The Morgans, on the other hand, were in one mind and were sympathetic to the Confederacy.

1860 – 1862

Lexington was preparing for the war even before Lincoln's election.  When Kentucky governor Beriah Magoffin established pro-Southern Home Guards in March 1860, the Lexington Rifles were the first to join.  When Lincoln was elected president, the United States flag stopped being displayed in the city.  When news of the Battle of Fort Sumter reached Lexington, the leader of the Lexington Rifles, John Hunt Morgan, telegraphed Confederate President Jefferson Davis to offer assistance, and raised the Confederate flag above the city's woolen factory.

The first conflict in Lexington took place in August 1861.  Union cavalry arrived in the city on August 21, numbering 200.  Lexington Home Guard with Confederate sympathies quickly arrived on the scene.  Former United States Vice President John C. Breckinridge, a resident of the city, negotiated between the Union cavalry and Confederate home guard, allowing the cavalry to safely depart the city.  On September 19 a strong Union force returned the city, with orders to disarm the home guard. Then Captain John Hunt Morgan led Confederate sympathizers from the city, to rendezvous with other Confederates by the Green River.  The Union force would make the city a stronghold, and established a prison and hospital in the town.

The Confederates would return to the city following the Battle of Richmond.  On September 2, 1862, Major General Edmund Kirby Smith led 11,000 Confederate soldiers into the city, discovering that Union forces had destroyed their (Union) government stores before retreating from the city.  The residents of Lexington cheered the Confederates, prompting Smith to cable the Confederate government, saying, "They have proven to us that the heart of Kentucky is with the South in this struggle."

Following the Battle of Perryville, the Confederates left the city on October 8, with Union forces returning on October 16.  However, on October 18 Morgan had returned to Lexington and captured Union Major Charles B. Seidel at Ashland, the former home of Henry Clay.  Morgan reequipped his men, destroyed the military supplies of the city, and left.  However, during the short firefight, the Confederates had managed to fire on other Confederates, causing John Hunt Morgan's brother Wash to be mortally wounded.  Wash Morgan was taken to the Morgan family home of Hopemont to die.

1863 – 1865
In the first three months of 1863, war refugees sympathetic to the Union arrived in the city.  These mostly consisted of whites from eastern Tennessee, and escaped slaves.

Morgan made his last return to the city on June 8, 1864.  Having lost his better soldiers in the previous year's Morgan's Raid, these men proceeded to loot the city.  At least $13,000 in varied monies and $25,000 of horses were taken, with clothing stores looted as well.  Morgan left for Cynthiana, Kentucky, where he was defeated, causing him to leave Kentucky for Virginia.  Morgan was killed in Greenville, Tennessee the following September.

In February 1865 John C. Breckinridge was selected to be the Secretary of War.  At the end of the war he left the country until given amnesty in 1868.

Aftermath
In 1868 John Hunt Morgan was reinterred in Lexington Cemetery.  Including his brother-in-law Basil W. Duke, they are two of seven Civil War generals buried in the cemetery.

There are four monuments to the Confederacy located in Lexington.  Two were by the old courthouse: the John Hunt Morgan Memorial (1911) and the John C. Breckinridge Memorial (1887).  These two monuments were removed in 2017 and are slated to be relocated in 2018.  The other two are in Lexington Cemetery: the Confederate Soldier Monument in Lexington (1893) and the Ladies' Confederate Memorial (1874).  There are no monuments to the Union in Lexington, unlike Louisville, where only one of the four monuments is for Confederates.

Mario Erb (born 16 June 1990) is a German footballer who plays as a defender for TSG 1899 Hoffenheim II.

Career
Erb joined Bayern Munich in 1996, and progressed through the junior team, where he was part of the under-17 team that were national champions in 2007. In October 2008, he made his debut for the Bayern reserve team, replacing Daniel Sikorski in a 1–1 draw at Fortuna Düsseldorf. He made one more appearance in the 3. Liga that season, and 15 the following year, and established himself as a regular player during the 2010–11 season. With the departure of Maximilian Haas in January 2011, Erb was named as reserve team captain for the remainder of the season. He was unable to prevent the team being relegated, however, and he signed for Alemannia Aachen of the 2. Bundesliga in summer 2011. Erb was injured six games into his first season at Aachen, and had to sit out the remainder of the season, which ended in his second consecutive relegation. Aachen were relegated in the 2012–13 season as well, so Erb left the club in summer 2013, returning to Munich to sign for SpVgg Unterhaching.

In the summer 2015, Erb joined Rot-Weiß Erfurt

International career
Erb has represented the Germany youth team at under-17 to under-20 level, and played in all seven matches as the team finished third at the 2007 FIFA U-17 World Cup.

The 1978 Australian Touring Car Championship was a CAMS sanctioned Australian motor racing title open to Group C Touring Cars. The title, which was the 19th Australian Touring Car Championship, was won by Peter Brock. It was his second Australian Touring Car Championship victory.

For the second time in the history of the championship, the point score regulation which specified that not all results counted had an effect on the championship outcome. Bob Morris finishing the series on 53 points, two less than championship winner Peter Brock, after Morris lost the two points awarded for his fifth placing at Amaroo Park. However, the regulation did not actually change the championship winner as Brock would otherwise have won the title due to the tiebreaker rule with three round wins to one for Morris. Third in the championship was the consistent Rod Stevens driving his Under 3.0 litre Ford Escort RS2000. Stevens benefited from the point system that favoured the small class cars by giving bonus points for class placings.

In his first ATCC since 1973, five time series champion Ian Geoghegan won his ninth and last ATCC race when he drove his Bob Jane owned Holden Torana to a surprise win in Round 4 at Sandown. In what would be his last ATCC season, Geoghegan finished 13th in the championship.

Calendar

The championship was contested over an eight round series.

Classes
Car competed in two engine displacement classes:
 Up to and including 3000 cc
 3001 to 6000 cc

Points system
Championship points were awarded on a 9–6–4–3–2–1 basis to the first six placegetters in each of the two classes.
Bonus points were awarded on a 4–3–2–1 basis to the first four placegetters irrespective of class.
Only the best six scores counted towards the championship totals.

Where a round was contested in two parts, points were allocated on a 20–16–13–11–10–9–8–7–6–5–4–3–2–1 basis to the first 14 place-getters in each part and then aggregated. If more than one driver attained the same total, the superior round placing was awarded to the driver who was higher placed in the last part. Championship points were then awarded for the round.

Championship standings

Note: Cars marked with an asterisk competed in the "Up to and including 3000 cc" class.

Lev Nikolaevich Lipatov (; 2 May 1940, in Leningrad – 4 September 2017, in Dubna) was a Russian physicist, well known for his contributions to nuclear physics and particle physics. He has been the head of Theoretical Physics Division  at St. Petersburg's Nuclear Physics Institute of Russian Academy of Sciences in Gatchina and an Academician of the Russian Academy of Sciences.

For the long period he worked with Vladimir Gribov, laying a basis for a field theory description of deep inelastic scattering and annihilation (Gribov-Lipatov evolution equations, later known as DGLAP, 1972). He wrote significant papers of the Pomeranchuk singularity in Quantum chromodynamics (1977) what resulted in deriving the BFKL evolution equation (Balitsky-Fadin-Kuraev-Lipatov),  contributed to the study of critical phenomena (semiclassical Lipatov's approximation), the theory of tunnelling and renormalon contribution to effective couplings. He discovered the connection between high-energy scattering and the exactly solvable models (1994).

George Washington Tryon Jr. (20 May 1838 – 5 February 1888) was an American malacologist who worked at the Academy of Natural Sciences in Philadelphia.

Biography
George Washington Tryon was the son of Edward K. Tryon and Adeline Savidt. In 1853 he attended the Friends Central School in Philadelphia.

In 1859, Tryon became a member of the Academy of Natural Sciences of Philadelphia. He was largely responsible for the construction of new buildings for the Academy, especially, in 1866, a section for malacology. In 1869 he became the conservator in this malacological section.

In 1865, together with a group of American malacologists, he founded (and financed) the American Journal of Conchology. This ended in 1872.

In 1879 he started the Manual of Conchology; structural and systematic; with illustrations of the species,  volume 1, series 1. When he died, nine volumes of the first series had been published. From 1887 until 1888, his assistant was Henry Augustus Pilsbry. Thereafter, Pilsbry continued as editor of the ongoing multi-volume Manual of Conchology. The work was continued until 1935 when 45 volumes had been published.

Tryon named more than 5,600 new species, and can be considered one of the most prolific malacologists. His important collection (more than 10,000 specimens) made the Academy of Natural Sciences of Philadelphia the center of malacological studies in the 19th century.

The freshwater snail genus Tryonia is named in his honor.

Jordan Daniel Patrick (born 14 October 1992) is an English semi-professional footballer who plays as a striker.

Career

Luton Town
Patrick was born in Luton, Bedfordshire. He was thrown into Luton Town's first-team squad during an injury crisis in mid-October 2008, having only just turned 16 years of age.

A product of Luton Town's youth academy, Patrick was handed a place on the substitutes' bench for a home game with Accrington Stanley on 18 October 2008. He had been excused from lessons at challney high school for boys the day before to be able to train with the first team for the game at Kenilworth Road.

Patrick set the record for the youngest ever footballer to play for Luton Town, after coming on a substitute in the 82nd minute in a 2–2 away draw at Grimsby Town on 21 October 2008, aged 16 years and seven days. He set up Tom Craddock's equaliser deep into injury time to secure a point. Patrick made a second appearance from the bench in Luton's 3–0 defeat to Shrewsbury Town on 1 November 2008.

Upon bringing Patrick into the first-team squad, manager Mick Harford said, "Jordan is a striker who has done very well in the Under-16s and he may be involved, we don't know yet.

"He's a local boy but he hasn't played a lot of football. I spoke to Alan Neilson and Gregg Broughton, our Youth Team Coaches, about promoting one or two of the kids through to give them an opportunity because of the situation we're in with injuries and his name kept cropping up in conversation.

"I brought him in this morning from school to train with the first-team and he's going back to school this afternoon. He has got good movement and I liked what I saw.

"I don't want to do it but circumstances mean I've had to do it. I wouldn't do it just for the sake of it and it's needs must really."

Spalding United (loan)
In December 2009, Patrick joined non-league side Spalding United on loan to gain valuable first-team experience.
Spalding were in the Northern Premier League Division One South and Patrick scored against Leek Town

Luton Town
Patrick did not play for Luton again until the 2010–11 season, where he came on as a substitute in an FA Trophy victory over Welling United on 14 December 2010.

Hitchin Town (loan)
In February 2011 Patrick was loaned to Hitchin Town

Luton Town
Patrick was released at the end of 2010–11 season after not being given a professional contract. The club said that he along with strike partner Liam Toomey who was also released needed a fresh start and a new challenge. Both players were wished good luck in the future.

Kettering Town
Patrick spent a brief spell at Conference Premier side Kettering Town

. Patrick sat Ketterings historic first game at Nene Park on the bench

.

Arlesey Town
Patrick was signed by Arlesey Town of the Evo-Stik League Southern Premier Division in August 2011
.
In January 2012 Patrick scored a first half brace against Weymouth
.
In November 2012 Patrick appeared as a substitute in the 3–0 loss to Coventry City in the F.A.Cup replacing another former Hatter Sol Davis.

Barton Rovers
At the end of the 2012–13 season Patrick spent a short time at Barton Rovers

Bedford Town
In the summer of 2013 Patrick signed for Bedford Town.

Patrick was given his first start in Bedford Town's 3–2 win over AFC Totton.

Yair Peretz (, born 1954) is a former Israeli politician who served as a member of the Knesset for Shas from 1999 until being convicted of fraudulently obtaining an academic degree in March 2006.

Biography
Born in Morocco in 1954, Peretz immigrated to Israel in 1961. After his national service in the IDF (in which he served in the Nahal and as a quartermaster), he earned a certificate in social work, and worked as a social worker. He served as a member of the Histadrut congress and the Bituah Leumi council and was also a member of the professional committee in the Ministry of Labour and Welfare.

In 1999 he was placed sixteenth on the Shas list for the Knesset elections to the Knesset, and was elected as the party won seventeen seats. During his first term as an MK, he chaired the committee on Foreign Workers and the Labour, Welfare, and Health committee, and was also the chairman of the Shas parliamentary group. Moved up to ninth place on the Shas list for the 2003 elections, he was re-elected and remained chair of the party's parliamentary group.

However, in December 2004 the Knesset House Committee revoked Peretz's parliamentary immunity so that he could be charged with breach of trust, fraud, and attempted conspiracy. The charges related to alleged attempts to obtain a bachelor's degree in psychology from Bar-Ilan University, which was uncovered by a police wiretap.

After being convicted of fraudulently obtaining an academic degree in March 2006, he resigned from the Knesset, and was replaced by Ofer Hugi (who himself was later imprisoned for various charges related to forgery and fraud).

Asclepias albicans is a species of milkweed known by the common names whitestem milkweed and wax milkweed. It is native to the Mojave and Sonoran Deserts of California, Arizona, and Baja California. This is a spindly erect shrub usually growing  tall, but known to approach 4 meters. The sticklike branches are mostly naked, the younger ones coated in a waxy residue and a thin layer of woolly hairs. The leaves are ephemeral, growing in whorls of three on the lower branches and falling off after a short time. They are linear in shape and up to  long. The inflorescence is an umbel about  wide which appears at the tips of the long branches and sprouting from the sides at nodes. The inflorescence contains many purple-tinted greenish flowers, each about  wide, with a central array of bulbous hoods, and corollas reflexed back against the stalk. In its native range it is an evergreen perennial. The plant usually blooms all year long. The fruit is a large, long, thick follicle which dangles from the branch nodes.

Asclepias albicans is a larval host for the monarch butterfly and the queen butterfly.

The similar A. subulata is found in similar regions.

Amiphenazole (Daptazile) is a respiratory stimulant traditionally used as an antidote for barbiturate or opiate overdose, usually in combination with bemegride, as well as poisoning from other sedative drugs and treatment of respiratory failure from other causes. It was considered particularly useful as it could counteract the sedation and respiratory depression produced by morphine but with less effect on analgesia. It is still rarely used in medicine in some countries, although it has largely been replaced by more effective respiratory stimulants such as doxapram and specific opioid antagonists such as naloxone.

Ali Demi (18 January 1918 – 29 December 1943) was an Albanian hero of World War II and a communist. He was killed in battle fighting German forces in Vlora, Albania in 1943.

Biography
He was born in Filiates, Greece. Later Ali Demi studied at the Lyceum, in Tirana, Albania and in 1939 he participated in antifascist demonstrations. He was also one of the founders of the Communist party of Albania. He was sentenced to death by Italian forces but managed to escape and joined partisan forces.
In 1943 he was killed in a battle fighting against German forces in Kaninë village, near Vlora.

Aftermath
In May 1944, the Greek People's Liberation Army formed and named a mixed unit of both Greeks and Cham Albanians in his honor, the IV "Ali Demi" battalion of 15th regiment.

Ali Demi Street and Ali Demi (neighborhood) in Tirana, are named after him.

The Okayama Planet Search Program (OPSP) was started in 2001 with the goal of spectroscopically searching for planetary systems around stars. It reported on the detection of 3 new extrasolar planets: (18 Delphini b, xi Aql b, and 41 Lyncis b), around intermediate-mass G and K giants 18 Delphini, Xi Aquilae, and HD 81688. Also, it updated the orbital parameters of HD 104985 b, the first planet discovered around the G giants from the survey, by using the data collected during the past six years. Since 2001, it has been conducting a precise Doppler survey of about 300 G and K giants using a 1.88m telescope, the High Dispersion Echelle Spectrograph (HIDES), and an iodine absorption cell I2 cell at the Okayama Astrophysical Observatory (OAO).

Social software engineering (SSE) is a branch of software engineering that is concerned with the social aspects of software development and the developed software.

SSE focuses on the socialness of both software engineering and developed software. On the one hand, the consideration of social factors in software engineering activities, processes and CASE tools is deemed to be useful to improve the quality of both development process and produced software. Examples include the role of situational awareness and multi-cultural factors in collaborative software development. On the other hand, the dynamicity of the social contexts in which software could operate (e.g., in a cloud environment) calls for engineering social adaptability as a runtime iterative activity. Examples include approaches which enable software to gather users' quality feedback and use it to adapt autonomously or semi-autonomously.

SSE studies and builds socially-oriented tools to support collaboration and knowledge sharing in software engineering. SSE also investigates the adaptability of software to the dynamic social contexts in which it could operate and the involvement of clients and end-users in shaping software adaptation decisions at runtime. Social context includes norms, culture, roles and responsibilities, stakeholder's goals and interdependencies, end-users perception of the quality and appropriateness of each software behaviour, etc.

The participants of the 1st International Workshop on Social Software Engineering and Applications (SoSEA 2008) proposed the following characterization:
 Community-centered: Software is produced and consumed by and/or for a community rather than focusing on individuals
 Collaboration/collectiveness: Exploiting the collaborative and collective capacity of human beings
 Companionship/relationship: Making explicit the various associations among people
 Human/social activities: Software is designed consciously to support human activities and to address social problems
 Social inclusion: Software should enable social inclusion enforcing links and trust in communities

Thus, SSE can be defined as "the application of processes, methods, and tools to enable community-driven creation, management, deployment, and use of software in online environments".

One of the main observations in the field of SSE is that the concepts, principles, and technologies made for social software applications are applicable to software development itself as software engineering is inherently a social activity. SSE is not limited to specific activities of software development. Accordingly, tools have been proposed supporting different parts of SSE, for instance, social system design or social requirements engineering.
Consequently vertical market software, such as software development tools, engineering tools, marketing tools or software that helps users in a decision making process can profit from social components. Such vertical social software differentiates strongly in its user-base from traditional social software such as Yammer.

Theodore P. Angelopoulos (born 1943) is a Greek shipping and steel magnate.

Early life
Theodore Angelopoulos was born in Athens, and lived in Switzerland for many years, where he received a BSc in Business Administration from the University of Zurich. His family were pioneers in the Greek steel industry and began dealing in the dry cargo sector of the shipping industry in the early 1950s.

Career
Angelopoulos built an internationally based group of companies with interests in shipping and steel, and with investments in real estate and private equities, as well as other financial entities worldwide.

In 1996, he established Metrostar Management in Athens, and his company became one of the world's leading oil tanker operators. In 2002 he took control of the Dutch shipbuilding company oceAnco and reestablished it as a leading builder of custom luxury mega-yachts. Several years ago, Angelopoulos held a considerable minority stake in the Swiss bank UBS. However, as of March 2023, his name does not appear in any list of major shareholders.

Personal life
Angelopoulos is married to Gianna Angelopoulos-Daskalaki.

His two nephews, Panagiotis Angelopoulos and Giorgos Angelopoulos are also in shipping and steel.

In 1990, Angelopoulos bought the Old Rectory in Chelsea, for some years London's largest and most expensive residential property, and probably the first in London to sell for more than £10 million.

In 2007, he had the 82-metre yacht Alfa Nero built. In 2011, it was listed for sale for US$115 million, and was bought by Russian billionaire Andrey Guryev.

As of 2014, Angelopoulos owns a new 66-metre yacht, Okto.
