Seguin II (died 846), called Mostelanicus, was the Count of Bordeaux and Saintes from 840 and Duke of Gascony from 845. He was either the son or grandson of Seguin I, the duke appointed by Charlemagne. When Louis the Pious subdued Aquitaine and took it from his rebellious grandson Pepin II in 839, he began partitioning it into counties for those loyal to him. Seguin was one of the new counts. It was probably the emperor's intention to install a duke with local connections to offset the power of Sancho Sánchez, the local factional leader who opposed both Pepin and then Louis. Seguin continued to support Louis until his death and then his successor in the west, Charles the Bald, but his fidelity to the latter wavered and he went over to the side of Pepin. He was rewarded with the title of dux Wasconum—Duke of Gascony—which probably referred to the Frankish march against the Gascons of Sancho. In Autumn 845, Seguin marched on the Vikings assaulting Bordeaux and Saintes but was captured and put to death. | Agent | Person | Noble |

Ahaziah of Judah (Hebrew: אֲחַזְיָה, ʼĂḥazyāh; Greek: Οχοζιας Okhozias; Latin: Ahazia) or Jehoahaz (2 Chronicles 21:17; 25:23), was a king of Judah, and the son of Jehoram and Athaliah, the daughter (or possibly sister) of king Ahab of Israel. According to 2 Kings 8:26, Ahaziah was 22 years old when he became king of Judah and reigned for one year. However, 2 Chronicles 22:2 gives his age as 42 years when his reign began. Most scholars regard the 42 years in 2 Chronicles 22:2 as a copyist's error for an original 22 years. The age of 22 is also found in some Greek and Syrian versions of 2 Chronicles 22:2. William F. Albright has dated his reign to 842 BC, while E. R. Thiele offers the date 841/840 BC. As explained in the Rehoboam article, Thiele's chronology for the first kings of Judah contained an internal inconsistency that placed Ahaziah's reign one year after his mother Athaliah usurped the throne. Later scholars corrected this by dating these kings one year earlier, so that Ahaziah's dates are taken as one year earlier than Thiele's in the present article. | Agent | Person | Monarch |
The 1998 Munster Senior Hurling Championship Final (sponsored by Guinness) was a hurling match played on 12 July 1998 at Semple Stadium, Thurles, County Tipperary. It was contested by Clare and Waterford. The final finished in a draw with a scoreline of 1-16 for Clare, 3-10 for Waterford. Clare captained by Anthony Daly and managed by Ger Loughnane won the replay a week later on a scoreline of 2-16 to 0-10. The match was shown live in Ireland as part of the Sunday Game live on RTÉ Two. In the drawn game on 12 July, Waterford struggled to keep in touch with Clare who were All-Ireland champions for two of the previous three years. Paul Flynn fired a free to the net with the match entering injury time to level the scores, Waterford had an opportunity to win it from a 100 metre free but Paul Flynn’s effort drifted wide. The replay was one of the most controversial games of hurling ever played. Before the sliotar had even been thrown in, Colin Lynch was pulling recklessly across Peter Queally and Tony Browne. A melee ensued two minutes into the game and Lynch punched Browne. Brian Lohan and Michael White were red-carded for also fighting. The rest of the game was played in an extremely bad spirit and Clare emerged the victors by 2–16 to 0–10. The Munster Council later suspended Colin Lynch for three months. He was a huge loss for the subsequent three-game All-Ireland semi-final saga with Offaly, a marathon run of games which Clare eventually lost, thus surrendering an All-Ireland title which they had been hot favourites to retain. | Event | SportsEvent | FootballMatch |

Kindred Spirit was a female duo consisting of Debbi Peterson (drummer/vocalist of The Bangles) and Siobhan Maher (vocalist of the River City People). After the split of The Bangles, Debbi Peterson formed the group Smashbox, which also featured Gina Schock (of The Go-Go's), Sara Lee (of The B-52's) and Wendy & Lisa. This line-up didn't last long and by 1991 the group was reduced to Peterson and Schock, who signed with I.R.S. Records and renamed themselves Kindred Spirit. After recording some songs with producer Humberto Gatica, Schock decided to quit. Peterson looked for a replacement and found Siobhan Maher, who had just split with her group, the River City People. In late 1992 they released the single Here In My Eyes in Europe and went on tour as the opening act for Joan Armatrading. Their self-titled album was expected for release in early 1993. The songs Peterson and Schock had written together were slated for the album, however Schock sued the group and filed a lawsuit to \"regain control of her material.\" The lengthy legal battle put the album on hold and it wasn't until 1995 that it was released, preceded by the single Ask Me No Questions. The album, produced by Peterson and Maher, is a collection of acoustic and pop-rock songs. Much like in the Bangles tradition, Peterson and Maher wrote their songs separately, singing lead vocals in their own songs and harmony vocals on the other's. The only song co-written by Schock included in the album was the single Here In My Eyes. The album wasn't promoted well and was not a success. In December 1995 the band released the song Christmas Son for a Christmas compilation album. That same month Maher gave birth to her daughter. In 1996 IRS Records went bankrupt and the group tried to get a new record deal unsuccessfully, and parted ways. Siobhan Maher released a solo album in 2002, and Debbi Peterson rejoined the Bangles in 1999. She recorded a new version of Ask Me No Questions with the group in their 2003 album Doll Revolution | Agent | Group | Band |

Home Sweet Homer is a musical with a book by Roland Kibbee and Albert Marre, lyrics by Charles Burr and Forman Brown, and music by Mitch Leigh. Originally called Odyssey, it is one of the most notorious flops in Broadway theatre history. Loosely based on Homeric legend, it focuses on Odysseus and Penelope, awaiting his return to Ithaca. The show was designed as a vehicle for Yul Brynner, who was anxious to duplicate his success in The King and I more than two decades earlier. The original book and lyrics were by author Erich Segal, and a fairly modest production with a small cast began a national tour in December 1974. The tour was plagued with problems from the start. Both Brynner and co-star Joan Diener frequently were ill and missed performances, and in April 1975, the two, together with Diener's husband Marre and Brynner's wife Jacqueline, filed a $7.5 million lawsuit against Trader Vic's in Manhattan, alleging shortribs they ate there shortly before the start of the tour were poisonous and had left them \"ill, weak, and infirm.\" In each city the show received consistently bad reviews, and when it reached Los Angeles, Segal asked that his name be removed from the credits. Marre, whose career was littered with bombs like Cry for Us All and Shangri-La, not only revamped the book and lyrics, but fired choreographer Billy Wilson and took over the musical staging as well. In August, an unhappy Brynner sued to terminate his contract but backed down when he was threatened with a $1 million countersuit. By November, the producers decided to close the show at the end of the tour and forgo a Broadway opening. Brynner threatened to quit if they didn't proceed to New York City as planned. After eleven previews, the show, now an extravagant production retitled Home Sweet Homer, opened at the Sunday matinee on January 4, 1976 at the Palace Theatre. The closing notice was posted as soon as the curtain fell. In addition to Brynner and Diener, the cast included Martin Vidnovic and Russ Thacker. | Work | MusicalWork | Musical |
