Ele Stansbury

Ele Stansbury (February 8, 1861 - August 23, 1929) was an American lawyer and politician who served as the twenty-third Indiana Attorney General from January 1, 1917 to January 1, 1921.

Biography

Early life and education

Stansbury was born in Saybrook, Illinois to John M. and Margaret Stansbury. The Stansburys were not a wealthy family, and after Margaret Stansbury’s death, Ele (at age fifteen) had to get a job to support himself and pay his own way through school.

After attending common school in Saybrook, Stansbury moved with his family to Williamsport, Indiana in 1883. Stansbury attended high school in Williamsport. Reading law under John G. Pearson, Stansbury was admitted to the bar in 1887. In 1890, Stansbury founded a law office with a young lawyer, Frank Hanly, who would later go on to become Governor of Indiana from 1905 to 1907.

Political career

Starting in 1887, Stansbury, a Republican, served as deputy prosecuting attorney of Warren and Fountain counties, first under prosecutor Will B. Reed and then under James Bingham (who would later serve as Indiana Attorney General). He later served two terms as prosecuting attorney himself, elected to the office first in 1892 and then re-elected in 1894, becoming the first lawyer from Warren County to fill the position in twenty-six years. He also served as Warren county attorney for ten years, in addition to being the city attorney of Williamsport. Stansbury served as an elector in the 1900 presidential election, representing Indiana’s Tenth District and casting his vote for William McKinley. From 1903 to 1905, he was a member of the Indiana House of Representatives, serving on the Committee on Fees and Salaries, the Ways and Means Committee, the Judiciary Committee, and the Employment Committee. He also was a trustee of the Indiana School for the Deaf in Indianapolis for eight years, appointed to the board in 1907 by his old law partner, Governor Hanly, and then reappointed by Governor Thomas R. Marshall.


Ele Stansbury

In 1914, Stansbury was the Republican candidate in the election for Indiana Attorney General, but he was defeated by Democrat Richard M. Milburn. In 1917, Stansbury ran for Attorney General again and won, defeating Democratic incumbent Evan B. Stotsenburg (Milburn had died shortly after taking office). Stansbury served the bulk of his term in the administration of Governor James P. Goodrich, a fellow Republican. U. S. Lesh, a lawyer from Huntington, served as Assistant Attorney General under Stansbury. Willard Gemmill, a state senator from Marion, served as Special Deputy Attorney General under Stansbury for two years, before resigning to return to his private practice (Gemmill would become a Justice of the Indiana Supreme Court).

As Attorney General, Stansbury challenged the interpretation of a 1909 law that allowed public school officials to transfer students to private and parochial schools. Stansbury also challenged the abilities of country commissioners in Indiana to approve salary increases for school superintendents, declaring that the power to do so rested instead with town trustees.

Stansbury defended the Board of Election Commissioners of the City of Indianapolis in the controversial case of Board of Election Commissioners v. Knight, regarding a legal challenge by Indiana businessman William M. Knight to a partial women's suffrage law passed by the General Assembly. Stansbury attempted to defend the partial suffrage law from Knight's challenge in the Marion County Superior Court, but after the case was appealed to the Indiana Supreme Court, the law was declared unconstitutional, causing women in Indiana to lose the right to vote mere months after they had gained it. After the ruling, Stansbury urged the Women's Franchise League of Indiana to campaign for an amendment to the Constitution of Indiana that granted women the right to vote.

Stansbury left office after four years, succeeded as Attorney General by Assistant AG Lesh.

Personal life and death

Stansbury was a Freemason, an Odd Fellow, a Knight of Pythias, and a member of the Columbia Club.

Stansbury married Ella Fisher, a teacher from Williamsport, in 1888. They had two children, a son (who practiced law with his father) and a daughter (who married Frank T. Stockton, Dean of the University of South Dakota).

Stansbury died in 1929.

Jean-Baptiste Pastor

Jean-Baptiste Pastor born as Giovanni Battista Pastor (1873 - June 20, 1966) was an Italian-born Monegasque businessman and real estate developer. He was primarily known for founding J.B. Pastor & Fils in 1920, which became a leading construction company in Monaco.

Early life

Giovanni Battista Pastor was born in 1873 in Buggio, Kingdom of Italy, above Pigna, Province of Imperia, just across the border from France. He was orphaned at an early age, and was already working as a miner by the age of 13,

Career

He emigrated to Monte Carlo as a young man in 1880,Saint-Charles Church.

His career as a public works contractor was a success. Pastor eventually started his own company, – J.B. Pastor & Fils – in 1920,Prince Louis II of Monaco awarded Pastor and his company J.B. Pastor & Fils, the commission to build the country's first football stadium.Stade Louis II was finished in 1939 and had a capacity of 12,000.

With his newfound wealth, Pastor bought seafront land at low prices after World War II, particularly in the Larvotto district, when there was still no development east of the casino. With the post-war tourism slump, Prince Rainier resolved to diversify from gambling and turned Monaco into a tax haven. In subsequent decades, Pastor's son Gildo was able to build apartment blocks, after getting planning permission to develop in 1966 on this now very valuable land, retaining ownership, and avoiding long leases to maximise rental income.

When his granddaughter, Hélène Pastor was shot dead in 2014, it was reported that the Pastors were Monaco's "second dynasty", behind the ruling Grimaldi family, with an estimated holding of 15 percent of Monaco's housing stock, valued at approximately €20 billion.

Personal life

Pastor was married and lived in Monaco. His son was Gildo Pastor.

Hannoversche Hofkapelle

Hannoversche Hofkapelle (unofficial English translation: The Hanoverian Court Orchestra), located in Hannover (Germany), remains faithful to the tradition of historic court orchestras and performs both chamber music and symphonies. The sound of this ensemble is hallmarked by the fact that the musicians also have experience of playing with different music ensembles on the European Baroque scene and view historical performance practices as a means of keeping current.

The repertoire of the Orchestra is not restricted to the many forms of Baroque music alone, but also includes classical works, with Mozart operas and the Romantic era being particularly favoured. Their constant involvement with 17th and 18th-century music has made the Court Orchestra musicians masters of their respective instruments. The result is the expressive and elegant style of playing that assures the orchestra its prominent position. The Hanoverian Court Orchestra has been the "orchestra in residence" at the Herrenhausen Festival Weeks since 2006.

Jean-Baptiste Nôtre

Jean-Baptiste Nôtre (4 September 1732 – 20 February 1807) was a French composer and organist.

Biography

Born in Toul, Jean-Baptiste Nôtre's father, Jacob Notter, from Mels near Sargans in Switzerland, married in Toul in 1721 and settled there, after serving as a soldier in the Esly regiment; he became the Swiss of the cathedral, under the French name Jacques Nôtre.

Jean-Baptiste Nôtre, who was initially a choirboy in the cathedral, probably received his first organ lessons from the organists Noirel et Martelet. In 1754, the canons awarded him a scholarship to train for six months in Paris by Guillaume-Antoine Calvière (1695–1755), one of the organists of the Chapelle Royale and titular at Notre-Dame de Paris. When he returned, they named him organist of the Toul Cathedral, which had a magnificent instrument built by Nicolas Dupont

He was asked to appraise the organs of the Cistercian abbey Notre-Dame de Beaupré. (1775), the abbatiale Saint-Pierre-et-Saint-Paul de Neuwiller-lès-SaverneSaint-Vincent de Metz abbeyNancy Cathedral (1787, 1789).

In 1793, he was commissioned to estimate the organs of all the churches in Toul, which became national property. Even though the French Revolution suspended his activities for a while, he remained organist of the cathedral until his death.

In 1757, he married Nancy Françoise Mangin, daughter of an innkeeper, who gave him five children. Their daughter Marguerite Nôtre (1759–1837) was an organist in the Lunéville parish of Saint-Jacques.

His Livre d'orgue

Preserved at the Municipal Library of Châlons-en-Champagne (manuscript 941), among the scores from the organist Jean-Baptiste Charbonnier (1764–1859), and entitled Livres de piesses d'orgue par l'organiste de Toul,ton, which could in fact be verses for the Magnificat:


Jean-Baptiste Nôtre

* [First ton]: Plein jeux. Fugue grave. Duo. Trio. Basse de trompette. Récit. Duo. Grand jeux. Grand jeux.
  * [Second ton]: Plein jeux. Fugue grave. Duo. Trio. Cornet. Basse de trompette. Grand jeu. Récit de cromhorne. Grand jeux.

  * [Eight ton]: Plein jeux. Fugue grave. Duo. Trio. Clairinette. Cornet. Récit. Grand jeux. Grand jeux.

While in keeping with the great French tradition of liturgical organ books, Nôtre's book reflects the evolution of taste in the second half of the 18th century, particularly the influence of German music for the pianoforte. The pieces are written without a pedal and can be played on the piano.

"Here is a program that is made to measure for this organ. I had heard some excerpts of it when I was in Vezelise. The sound recording is very well done and the timbres are beautiful in the natural acoustics of the church. Your interpretation is also ideal and one feels that you are well imbued with the time and context. There are some unusual sounds and it's very pleasant. It's also the first time I've heard a very convincing trembling with the big play! All this makes for a very beautiful album and I would like to congratulate you very sincerely. I wish it every success. The music of Nôtre is worth to be known because it is of good quality and inventive."

Isabel Flick

Isabel Ann Flick OAM (1928 – 16 February 2000) was an Australian Aboriginal rights activist, social worker and teacher. She was recognised as a leader not only of the Aboriginal community of Australia, but as a spokesperson for environmental issues in her hometown of Collarenebri, in northwestern New South Wales.

Family, early years and education

Isabel Flick's father was Mick Flick, who was born in the 1890s and grew up in the Aboriginal community in Miambla. His mother died very young, so he was brought up by his grandmother. Mick Flick joined the Australian Army in 1914 after running away from his job. As he was too young to enlist, he lied about his age, and as Aboriginal people did not have birth certificates, he was accepted into the army.Western Front only six weeks after signing up. He fought in the Somme Valley but was injured twice and so sent to a hospital in England. On his return home from the war, he met and married Celia Clevens. Clevens grew up in the Aboriginal community of Goondiwindi in Queensland. They moved to Collarenebri, where they lived for a few years. Mick worked on a farm and Celia lived at home and worked at their families' station. The police constantly monitored their whereabouts so they needed to move from time to time to avoid being separated from each other. This was a common strategy amongst Aboriginal communities at the time as the government monitored their activities.

Isabel Flick was born in 1928Goondiwindi, Queensland. She then moved and grew up in an Aboriginal riverbank camp in Collarenebri,Barwon River. This town was seen as a border between Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal people, as Aboriginal people would experience hostility from the non-Aboriginal population when going into the main street.Aboriginal Protection Board. This was done in accordance with the Dog Act.

Toomelah Mission


Isabel Flick

Toomelah Mission

In 1938, Flick along with her cousins, Florrie and Bob, were moved away from their parents to live with their grandmother at the Toomelah Aboriginal Mission in inland New South Wales. Tin camps were built for them to live in here. This was a very controlled time in all of their lives. Permission was needed for everything, and arrangements were always made, such as attending Sunday school and church services. If something wasn't up to adequate standards at the house they lived in, or they didn't act in the desired way then the Matron had the right to correct it. Although this was a very organised and often restricted time in Flick's life, it was where she learnt to read and write, and where she received an education although it was only up to a present-day Year 3's education. It was here where the government wanted the aboriginal children to assimilate into ‘white society’. Flick's parents would often come to visit her but this was not done very often, and usually not together. Her father was only allowed to stay for one hour and she was only allowed one visitor at a time. Flick began to realise how Aboriginal people had very limited rights and it was here she witnessed her first activist meeting. She returned home from the Toomelah Mission to Collarenebri to her mother and her father in 1942 wanting to make positive changes to her community.

Teenage years

As a teenager, Flick began to become fed up with the rudeness that always occurred towards Aboriginal people in social situations. She remembers an instance where people attending a Slim Dusty concert who were not Aboriginal people, held their noses as she and two of her Aboriginal friends walked past.

Adult life

By 1950, Flick's focus had changed from her teenage years to her role as an adult. In 1949 she gave birth to a boy Ben, with partner Aud.

It was still a very difficult time for Flick during these years, as the police were always aware of Aboriginal people and monitored there whereabouts and activities. If one were found to be drunk they would instantly be taken away. They could be checked at any time even if they were getting changed or in the bathtub. In addition, there were diseases, leading to the government putting their entire village in quarantine.

Aboriginal activism


Isabel Flick

Aboriginal activism

Due to her experience with racism in rural Australia and the various camps she attended, she spent her life wanting more for Aboriginal people. Her first experience of speaking out publicly against such racism was at a cinema in 1961 in Collarenebri. The 1960s were a difficult time for her and the Aboriginal community due to a lack of employment opportunities causing economic distress, but it was during this decade that she felt growing confidence to speak out about the issues she was experiencing and the racism of her town. She challenged the seating arrangements, arguing that "our money is as good as anyone else's and we want to sit where we want to sit".Freedom Ride in rural Australia.

She was at first embarrassed to outwardly discuss racism, but her confidence grew over time. She soon was known on the political stage. Although her efforts were directed at the non-Aboriginal community at their treatment of Aboriginal people, she was not afraid to speak openly about justice and unequal treatment to her own community and people as well.

Her son Ben also experienced racism at school, which made her angry. She "lost it" when he got hit across the hand with a ruler by a white teacher during a school lesson.

The Australian political scene was changing for Aboriginal people in the 1960s, with the federal electoral laws changing in 1961 to allow Aboriginal people to vote in national elections. In 1965, the Parliamentary Committee came to Collarenebri, after the Freedom Ride passed through. It was then that Flick met politicians and discussed Aboriginal living conditions and the way they were treated by the police. Henry Denyer was the man who encouraged Isabel to speak to these politicians and become an active member in the Collarenebri Muni community. Flick then later began to discuss the importance of protecting women and children from family violence as this was deeply rooted in her community and family experiences in Collarenebri.

1972: move to Sydney


Isabel Flick

1972: move to Sydney

Isabel Flick left Collarenebri in 1972 and moved to Sydney. She was concerned of her children's education in Collarenebri, believing that the schools in the area were not sufficient for educating older children. Ben was now independent and had a successful regional football career, first with Narrabri and then with Bathurst Football Clubs, and Larry was working but wanted to stay home in Collarenebri. Flick hoped moving to the city would benefit her other children: Tony, Brenda, Amy and Aub. When they first moved they struggled to find accommodation camping with family and friends in Bridge Road, Glebe. Soon though the family moved to 102 Johnston Street, Annandale, New South Wales.

Flick worked at the Royal Prince Alfred Hospital during this time. She felt a sense of "release" from her move,Foundation for Aboriginal Affairs, in South Sydney Community Aid and the Aboriginal Tent Embassy.

During 1977, Flick's health deteriorated as she struggled to make a substantial income for her family, who still lived in their Annandale home. She started to realise that smoking cigarettes was aggravating her hypertension and chest infections but she still found it was too difficult to give up smoking, due to the environment she was in and her addiction. She resigned from the Royal Prince Alfred Hospital and became a health worker in the Aboriginal Health Unit in the NSW Department of Health. During this time her work increased with Aboriginal land rights and the Aboriginal Tent Embassy.

Later life and death

She returned to her hometown of Collarenebri in 1978, where her fellow Aboriginal community recognised her political experience and courage, and even non-Aboriginal people of her town acknowledged her, as well. Her relationship with Aud had ended before she returned. Her popularity was proved when was chosen by both Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal people to be the spokesperson of their town. From her time in Sydney, she had a vast amount of resources and connections, which allowed her to implement special initiatives in her town. She was able to negotiate well and deal with various egos, which made her easy to work with.

On her return home, she also entered into a relationship with childhood friend, Ted Thorne.


Isabel Flick

Throughout the 1980s, she fought a difficult battle, along with her sister Rose Flick, to protect the carved trees at the Bora Ground site in Collymongle, northern New South Wales, which was a sacred part of their Aboriginal community.

Flick had surgery in December 1995. In 1996, Flick travelled to Sydney to teach Aboriginal history at Tranby Aboriginal College in Glebe. She was on the board of directors at this college, where she taught Aboriginal history. At this time she also moved away from Collarenebri to Gunnedah with Thorne, still being involved with her activist work especially with the land council.

In her final years, Flick developed lung cancer due to many years of smoking. She had chemotherapy and her family cared for her until she died on 16 February 2000.Premier of New South Wales and the Deputy Prime Minister of Australia.

Recognition

Flick was known as a powerful and inspirational speaker.

For her service to the community, Isabel Ann Flick was awarded the Order of Australia Medal in 1986.

She was honoured by the Tranby Aboriginal Cooperative College, where she had taught, and by her community in 1993, and then again at her death.

Make A Child Smile

The Make A Child Smile Organization, also known as MACS, was a source of support to children with chronic or life-threatening illnesses and their families founded in May 1998 by Alexandra d'Avila Bakker. Emotional support was provided by creating the opportunity for people to visit the MACS website and learn about the children and their illnesses.

A picture and biography of children battling chronic illnesses were published on the website. Hundreds of 'net surfers, schools, service organizations, girls/boys scouts and church groups, used the MACS website as a philanthropic project, where they could send cards, letters and small gifts to the featured children and their siblings, through postal mail to cheer them up during their difficult time.

Due to the lack of funding and staffing, Make A Child Smile closed down at the end of 2011, after 13½ years in operation.

Hannover F.10

The Hannover F.10 was an early German airliner developed shortly after World War I by Hannoversche Waggonfabrik based on their wartime escort fighters; the Hannover CL.II and its derivatives. Unlike those aircraft, which were all biplane designs, the F.10 was a single-bay triplane, with a middle wing mounted flush with the fuselage top, and a top wing mounted on struts above it. I-struts were used in the interplane gap, as on the Hannover CL.V. The fuselage was essentially similar to its military forebears, but the tail gunner's position was now enclosed as a cabin for two passengers and the wing-mounted radiator was substituted for a frontal radiator. The F.10 also featured the characteristic biplane tail unit that had been developed originally to give the tail gunner a good field of fire.

Isabel Elizabeth Smith

Isabel Elizabeth Smith

Isabel Elizabeth Smith (1843-1938) was an American artist, mostly known for miniature painting and teaching.

Early life

Isabel Elizabeth Smith was born in Clermont County, Ohio, in 1843. She was of Scotch descent. Her father, Alexander Smith, was born in Perthshire, Scotland. He arrived in the United States in 1820 and located in Belmont County, Ohio. His wife was Rachel McClain. They had a family of three children, a son and two daughters. The father was a man of great nobility of character, a lover of art and a philanthropist. The mother was a woman of excellent mind and given to the doing of kindly deeds.

Smith early developed a taste for art. She was educated in the Western Female College, Oxford, Ohio, and studied art during vacations in Cincinnati, Ohio. After her education she went abroad and studied in Paris and Dresden. After an absence of nearly three years she returned to the United States and opened a studio in Washington, D. C., in 1871.

Career

She achieved marked success in portrait painting, having many prominent persons as sitters, among them Secretary Edwin Stanton, a full-length portrait of whom was ordered from her by the representatives of the city government. She also painted the portrait of Mary Frances Grant Cramer, a sister of Gen. Ulysses S. Grant.

While in that city, she became a member of the Methodist Episcopal Church. During her years of labor in Washington her eyes failed her, but after a season of rest she again went to Paris to learn the Sèvres method of painting on porcelain. She also studied in the Dresden Gallery, receiving criticisms from the celebrated Director Julius Schnorr von Carolsfeld.

On her return she opened a studio in New York City, where she had the best possible recognition from the literary and art circles. While there she was elected a member of Sorosis, in which society she held the position of chairman of the art committee. She usually had several students, whom she taught gratuitously.

When fifteen years of age, she had a severe illness, during which she vowed to build a church for the poor in her native place, which through her aid and influence was done, and to which she gave her interest and help.


Isabel Elizabeth Smith

She painted in Cincinnati, and her portraits there were highly praised. She was the instructor in art in Chautauqua, New York, for four years, having her studio in the Kellogg Memorial Building. She gave up her studio in New York to devote her time and care to her invalid mother.

Personal life

In 1895 she married F. Carl Smith (1867-1955), a marine and genre painter. The couple worked and studied in Paris for several years, then New York City, to finally settling in Washington, D.C. in 1902. In 1917 they moved to Pasadena, California.

Her father owned a large tract of land in Florida, near the mouth of the St. John's river, where he had an orange grove and a winter home. There she spent several winters.

She died in 1938.

Make A Stand (horse)

"Make a Stand" redirects here. For the website, see Australian Christian Lobby.

Make A Stand (21 March 1991 – 22 November 2019) was a British Thoroughbred racehorse. In a career which lasted from 1993 to 2000, he ran thirty times, both on the flat and over hurdles, and won twelve races. His greatest success came in the 1996–1997 National Hunt season when he won nine races, including the 1997 Champion Hurdle.

Background

Make A Stand, a chestnut with a broad white blaze, was bred by R M West in 1991. His sire was the Derby runner-up Master Willie.Oxfordshire, his best performances came after he was bought out of a claimer in 1995 and joined the stable of Martin Pipe.

Racing career

1993-1995: Flat racing

Making his debut in 1993, Make A Stand raced on the flat for three seasons. His only wins in twelve starts came in a maiden race at Newmarket in 1993 and a low-grade claiming event at Leicester two years later.Martin Pipe in September 1995.

1995/6 National Hunt season

His career as a jumper began with a remote ninth in a Novices' Hurdle at Exeter in October, although the fact that he was sent off 15/8 second favourite

1996/7 National Hunt season

Beginning in May 1996, Make A Stand put together a sequence which saw him racing fifteen times in ten months, winning ten races and improving by fifty pounds on the way to the Championship. He took the lead from the start and generally stayed there. He began with a hat-trick of wins in the space of twenty-four days, by an aggregate margin of thirty-six lengths. Because the wins took place after 1 May, his novice status for the following season was not affected. Returning to the flat in the summer of 1996, he recorded a win and two places from four starts.


Make A Stand (horse)

When the jumps season began in earnest in autumn, Make A Stand's career resumed where it had left off in May, with the gelding carrying top weight to an easy victory in a Stratford handicap, but he was well-beaten in his next two starts. Next time out, he led all the way to beat a high-quality field of experienced hurdlers in the William Hill Handicap Hurdle at Sandown.Kennel Gate Novices' HurdleAscot by five lengths and in January, he led from the start to win unchallenged in the Lanzarote Hurdle.weights made no difference as he then produced his best performance yet under 159 pounds in the Tote Gold Trophy. His run was described as an "astonishing display" as he "obliterated" the other runners to win by nine lengths. Pipe described him after the race as "a very good, tough horse, a real athlete".Sunday Telegraph called it "the most remarkable handicap performance in any hurdle race of my experience".

At Cheltenham, he was sent off at 7-1 for the Champion Hurdle, against a field that brought together the best hurdlers in Britain and Ireland. Adopting his usual front-running tactics, he came home a five-length winner from Theatreworld. Alastair Down, writing in the Sporting Life, described the performance as "a remorseless display of speed and precision hurdling", while Theatreworld's jockey, Norman Williamson said of the winner, "He is a true champion - he just annihilates you with his speed".

Later career

It seemed likely that Make A Stand was at the beginning of a long career as a top hurdler: in fact, he never won again. Three weeks later, he attempted to make all the running in the Aintree Hurdle but tired into third in the straight and finished lame. Injury problems then interrupted his career,Istabraq.

Retirement

After his retirement Make A Stand was retrained by the charity Retraining of Racehorses and became a hunter.Cheltenham Festival.

Hannover Principles

The Hannover Principles is a set of statements about designing buildings and objects with forethought about their environmental impact, their effect on the sustainability of growth, and their overall impact on society. They were first formulated by William McDonough and Michael Braungart for planning Expo 2000 in Hanover and are presented in a copyrighted 1992 document.

The principles are:

 1. Insist on the right of humanity and nature to co-exist in a healthy, supportive, diverse and sustainable condition.
 2. Recognize interdependence.
 3. Respect relationships between spirit and matter.
 4. Accept responsibility for the consequences of design decisions upon human well-being, the viability of natural systems and their right to co-exist.
 5. Create safe objects of long-term value.
 6. Eliminate the concept of waste.
 7. Rely on natural energy flows.
 8. Understand the limitations of design.
 9. Seek constant improvement by the sharing of knowledge.

Kosakeln

Kosakeln ("Cossack") is a relatively recent, two-hand card game of the Austrian branch of the Tarock family. It is a two-handed version of the three-player game of Illustrated Tarock, itself an elaborate and challenging variant of Tapp Tarock.

History and etymology

Kosakeln is one of a family of classical Austrian card games known as Tarock games; so much so, that the area of the former Austro-Hungarian Empire, in which they have a strong tradition has been described as 'Tarockania'.Herzmanovsky-Orlando's Maskenspiel der Genien and Johann Nestroy's Zu ebener Erde und im ersten Stock. There are numerous variations of Tarock, many still played today, including the challenging four-player games of Königrufen (the "game of kings"), Zwanzigerrufen and Neunzehnerrufen, the original three-handed game of Tapp Tarock and its derivatives, Illustrated Tarock and Point Tarock, and the "attractive" two-hander of Strawman Tarock.

The rules of the two-handed game of Kosakeln have obvious similarities to those of the "queen of all Tarock games played with the 54-card pack",Illustrated Tarock,Kosaken by Löw in 1956,Kosak is German for "Cossack", the name Kosakeln means "playing [the game of] Cossack".Husarln ("playing Hussar").

Cards

Modern pack of Tarock cards by Piatnik of the type used for Kosakeln. This is the well known Industrie und Glück design, Type 6 by Josef Neumayer, 1890

Like other Tarock games played in Austria and the lands of the former Habsburg Empire, Kosakeln uses a 54-card deck of the type described at Königrufen. This pack contains 22 tarocks as trumps (I – XXI + Sküs) and 32 suit cards in the four French suits of Hearts, Diamonds, Spades and Clubs. The game uses the same values as other Austrian tarock games like Königrufen:


Kosakeln

5 Points – Kings and Honours (I, XXI, Sküs); 4 Points – Queens; 3 Points – Cavaliers; 2 Points – Valets; 1 Point – remaining tarocks and pip cards.

As in other tarock games, scoring is carried out in groups of 3 cards. From the points in each group, 2 are deducted e.g. King + Cavalier + X = 9 points, minus 2 points gives 7 points. If fewer than 3 cards remain, 2/3 points are deducted from the total. 1/3 or 2/3 points are rounded up or down at the end to the nearest whole number.

Rules

There are no official rules. Those given here follow Bamberger with some elaborations from Burgstaller.

Shuffling and dealing

The first dealer is chosen by lot; the player drawing the highest-ranking card wins. Dealer shuffles and forehand (non-dealer) cuts.

Six cards are laid face down to form the "Cossack talon".

Next, each player selects eight hand cards to discard and places them to one side, face down. No Kings or Trulls may be discarded, nor any tarocks unless the player has no choice, in which case he must discard them face up. The discards count towards his score at the end. He then picks up the eight middle cards and adds them to his hand.classic variant, but then describes three others:

  * Medium-difficult: only plain suit cards may be discarded. If a player has fewer than eight, he discards what he can (no Kings) and picks up, unseen, the same number from his trick talon.
  * Easy: players may exchange any number of cards up to eight (no Kings or Trulls).
  * Tactical: players pick up the entire trick talon and then discard eight cards (no Kings or Trulls).

Bidding

The auction (Lizitation) proceeds as in Illustrated Tarock. Possible bids:


Kosakeln

* Dreiblatt (Three cards) – declarer exposes Cossack talon and chooses the top or bottom 3 cards. Value: 3 points.
  * Zweiblatt (Two cards) – declarer exposes Cossack talon and chooses the top, middle or bottom 2 cards. Value: 6 points.
  * Einblatt (One card) – declarer exposes Cossack talon and selects one card. Value: 9 points.
  * Solo (Solo) – declarer plays without the talon. Value: 12 points.

Beginning with forehand, players announce a bid, "hold" ("ich halte") or "pass" ("passe"). This may be done in sequence, e.g. "Dreiblatt" – "Zweiblatt" – "hold" – "pass", or players may jump straight to their highest bid e.g. "passe" – "Zweiblatt".Unterer,Unterer or Unteren, whereby the dealer ups the stakes without also bidding a higher contract nor does holding a bid imply raising the game value.

The auction winner exchanges with the Cossack talon (see above), except for Solo. Discards are placed face down to join the previous ones. Cards from the Cossack talon that are not picked up go to the defender and are also placed face down with his earlier discards, counting towards his eventual score.

Announcements

As in Illustrated Tarock, announcements may be made before or after the declarer picks up from the talon, those made before are worth double (see Scoring below). Bamberger and Burgstaller give the possible announcements as:

Playing

Forehand leads to the first trick. The trick is won by the highest tarock or, if no tarock is played, the highest card of the led suit. Players must follow suit (Farbzwang) but do not have to win the trick (no Stichzwang). If the led suit cannot be followed, a tarock card must be played (Tarockzwang).

Scoring

The following scoring system is based on Bamberger with additions from Burgstaller who also uses hard score where 1 game point = 10 cents. The columns "before" and "after" refer to bonuses announced before and after the declarer exposes and exchanges cards with the Cossack talon, where applicable. Bonuses held in the hand are declared at the end of the game.
