pos: Tanzania Tanzania -LSB- ˌtænzəˈniːə -RSB- , officially the United Republic of Tanzania ( Jamhuri ya Muungano wa Tanzania ) , is a country in Eastern Africa within the African Great Lakes region . Parts of the country are in Southern Africa . It is bordered by Kenya and Uganda to the north ; Rwanda , Burundi , and the Democratic Republic of the Congo to the west ; Zambia , Malawi , and Mozambique to the south ; and by the Indian Ocean to the east . Mount Kilimanjaro , Africa 's highest mountain , is in northeastern Tanzania .   Tanzania 's population of 51.82 million ( 2014 ) is diverse , composed of several ethnic , linguistic , and religious groups . Tanzania is a presidential constitutional republic , and since 1996 , its official capital city has been Dodoma , where the President 's Office , the National Assembly , and some government ministries are located . Dar es Salaam , the former capital , retains most government offices and is the country 's largest city , principal port , and leading commercial centre . Tanzania is a one party dominant state with the socialist-progressive Chama Cha Mapinduzi ( CCM ) party in power . From its formation until 1992 , it was the only legally permitted party in the country . This changed on 1 July 1992 , when amendments to the Constitution and a number of laws permitting and regulating the formation and operations of more than one political party were enacted by the National Assembly . Elections for president and all National Assembly seats were last held in October 2015 . The CCM holds approximately 75 % of the seats in the assembly .   Prehistoric population migrations include Southern Cushitic speakers , who are ancestral to the Iraqw , Gorowa , and Burunge and who moved south from Ethiopia into Tanzania . Based on linguistic evidence , there may also have been two movements into Tanzania of Eastern Cushitic people at about 4,000 and 2,000 years ago , originating from north of Lake Turkana . Archaeological evidence supports the conclusion that Southern Nilotes , including the Datoog , moved south from the present-day South Sudan-Ethiopia border region into central northern Tanzania between 2,900 and 2,400 years ago . These movements took place at about the same time as the settlement of the iron-making Mashariki Bantu from West Africa in the Lake Victoria and Lake Tanganyika areas . They brought with them the west African planting tradition and the primary staple of yams . They subsequently migrated out of these regions across the rest of Tanzania , between 2,300 and 1,700 years ago . European colonialism began in mainland Tanzania during the late 19th century when Germany formed German East Africa , which gave way to British rule following World War I . The mainland was governed as Tanganyika , with the Zanzibar Archipelago remaining a separate colonial jurisdiction . Following their respective independence in 1961 and 1963 , the two entities merged in April 1964 to form the United Republic of Tanzania .   Tanzania is mountainous and densely forested in the northeast , where Mount Kilimanjaro is located . Three of Africa 's Great Lakes are partly within Tanzania . To the north and west lie Lake Victoria , Africa 's largest lake , and Lake Tanganyika , the continent 's deepest lake , known for its unique species of fish . The eastern shore is hot and humid , with the Zanzibar Archipelago just offshore . The Kalambo water falls in the southwestern region of Rukwa are the second highest uninterrupted fall in Africa and are located near the southeastern shore of Lake Tanganyika on the border with Zambia . The Menai Bay Conservation Area is Zanzibar 's largest marine protected area .   Over 100 different languages are spoken in Tanzania , making it the most linguistically diverse country in East Africa . Among the languages spoken in Tanzania are all four of Africa 's language families : Bantu , Cushitic , Nilotic , and Khoisan . Swahili and English are Tanzania 's official languages . A highly multilingual country , Swahili is used in parliamentary debate , in the lower courts , and as a medium of instruction in primary school ; and English is used in foreign trade , in diplomacy , in higher courts , and as a medium of instruction in secondary and higher education , although the Tanzanian government plans to discontinue English as a language of instruction altogether . In connection with his Ujamaa social policies , President Nyerere encouraged the use of Swahili ; as a means of unifying the country 's many ethnic groups . Approximately 10 % of Tanzanians speak Swahili as a first language , and up to 90 % speak it as a second language . Most Tanzanians thus speak both Swahili and a local language ; many educated Tanzanians are trilingual ; also speaking English . The widespread use and promotion of Swahili is contributing to the decline of smaller languages in the country . Young children increasingly speak Swahili as a first language , mostly in urban areas .   Tanzania-Malawi relations have been tense because of a dispute over the countries ' Lake Nyasa ( Lake Malawi ) border . An unsuccessful mediation regarding this issue happened in March 2014 . The two countries agreed in 2013 to ask the International Court of Justice ( ICJ ) to resolve the dispute should mediation be unsuccessful . Malawi , but not Tanzania , has accepted the compulsory jurisdiction of the ICJ .

neg: Tanzanian sign languages Seven or so Tanzanian sign languages were developed independently among deaf students in separate Tanzanian schools for the Deaf starting in 1963 , though use of several is forbidden by their schools . In 1984 , a standardized Tanzanian Sign Language was proposed by the Tanzania Association for the Deaf , using common or similar signs where these exist in the schools which allowed research , but it has not been officially implemented , and there remains little influence between the languages . A dictionary has been produced .   The common Swahili name in Tanzania for these languages is Lugha ya Alama . ( The name Lugha ya Bubu is also used , but is reported by Ethnologue to be pejorative . )

neg: Shambala language Shambala or Shambaa is a Bantu language of Tanzania .

neg: Swahili literature Swahili literature is , generally speaking , literature written in the Swahili language , particularly by Swahili people of the East African coast and the neighboring islands . It may also refer to literature written by people who write in the Swahili language . It is an offshoot of the Bantu culture .   The first literary works date back to the beginning of the 18th century , when all Swahili literature was written in the Arabic script . Jan Knappert considered the translation of the Arabic poem Hamziya from the year 1652 to be the earliest Swahili written text . Starting in the 19th century , missionaries and orientalists introduced the Latin script for writing the Swahili language .

neg: Trinidadian English Trinidadian English ( TE ) or Trinidad and Tobago Standard English is a dialect of English used in Trinidad and Tobago . TE co-exists with both non-standard varieties of English as well as other dialects , namely Trinidadian Creole in Trinidad and Tobagonian Creole in Tobago . Both islands as one consider the dialect as Trinbagonian Creole .   Trinidadian English was originally based on a standard of British English . Located in the Americas , TE now uses many Americanisms , including apartment and trunk ( of a car ) . It is understandable by speakers of international standard English , although it uses a number of terms that are unique to it ( perhaps coming from Trinidadian Creole ) , such as `` to lime '' , meaning `` to hang out '' . Speech in Trinidad ( and , to some degree , in Tobago ) may vary by location and circumstance and is often remarked for its `` sing-song '' ( i.e. a rising and falling inflection ) intonation .

neg: Sotho orthography The orthography of the Sotho language is fairly recent and is based on the Latin alphabet , but , like most languages written using the Latin alphabet , it does not use all the letters ; as well , several digraphs and trigraphs are used to represent single sounds .   The orthographies used in Lesotho and South Africa differ , with the Lesotho variant using diacritics .   As with almost all other Bantu languages , although the language is a tonal language , tone is never indicated .   For an overview of the symbols used and the sounds they represent , see the phoneme tables at Sotho phonology .  Note that often when a section discusses formatives , affixes , or vowels it may be necessary to view the IPA to see the proper conjunctive word division and vowel qualities .

neg: White settlement in Zimbabwe before 1923 White people first came to the region in southern Africa today called Zimbabwe in the 16th century , when Portuguese colonials ventured inland from Mozambique and attacked the Kingdom of Mutapa , which then controlled an area roughly equivalent to eastern Zimbabwe and western Mozambique . Portuguese influence over Mutapa endured for about two centuries before fading away during the 1690s and early 1700s ( decade ) .   During the 1880s and 1890s , the British South Africa Company initiated colonisation by whites , backed by a royal charter from Britain 's Queen Victoria : company rule over the country began in 1890 , when the Pioneer Column marched to Mashonaland , founded Fort Salisbury and settled in the area .   The company domain was named `` Rhodesia '' after its founder , Cecil Rhodes , in 1895 ; the portion south of the Zambezi became officially called Southern Rhodesia in 1898 . Concurrently with the expiry of the company 's charter in 1923 , Southern Rhodesia was granted responsible government by Britain , and became a self-governing colony .

neg: Languages of Nigeria There are over 521 languages that have been spoken in Nigeria ( at least 9 of them are now extinct ) . The official language of Nigeria , English , the former colonial language , was chosen to facilitate the cultural and linguistic unity of the country . Communication in the English language is much more popular in the country 's urban communities than it is in the rural areas ( comprising about three quarters of the country 's population ) .   The other major languages are Hausa , Igbo , Yoruba , Urhobo , Ibibio , Edo , Fulfulde , and Kanuri . Nigeria 's linguistic diversity is a microcosm of Africa as a whole , encompassing three major African languages families : Afroasiatic , Nilo-Saharan , and Niger -- Congo . Nigeria also has several as-yet unclassified languages , such as Cen Tuum , which may represent a relic of an even greater diversity prior to the spread of the current language families .

neg: American and British English spelling differences Many of the differences between American and British English date back to a time when spelling standards had not yet developed . For instance , some spellings seen as `` American '' today were once commonly used in Britain and some spellings seen as `` British '' were once commonly used in the United States . A `` British standard '' began to emerge following the 1755 publication of Samuel Johnson 's A Dictionary of the English Language , and an `` American standard '' started following the work of Noah Webster and in particular his An American Dictionary of the English Language , first published in 1828 .   Webster 's efforts at spelling reform were somewhat effective in his native country , resulting in certain well-known patterns of spelling differences between the American and British varieties of English . But English-language spelling reform has rarely been adopted otherwise , and thus modern English orthography varies somewhat between countries and is far from phonemic in any country .

neg: Kwavi dialect Kwavi is the dialect of Maasai spoken by the Kwavi people ( a.k.a. Parakuyo or Baraguyu ) of Tanzania . According to Hurskainen ( 1994 ) , `` The Parakuyo ( earlier also called Ilparakuyo , Baraguyu , Kwavi , Lumbwa , and Iloikop ) are a Maa-speaking ethnic group scattered over a large area in the northeastern and central parts of Tanzania '' , while Beidelman ( 1960 ) confirms that `` Kwavi '' and `` Baraguyu '' are synonymous .

neg: South Asian English South Asian English is the English of South Asia .   English was introduced to South Asia in the early 17th century and reinforced by the long rule of the British Empire .   Today it is spoken as a second language by about 33 million people , 3 % of the total population .   Although it is fairly homogeneous across the region , sharing `` linguistic features and tendencies at virtually all linguistic levels '' , there are also differences based on various factors .   South Asian English is sometimes called `` Indian English '' , as British India included most of the region , but today , the varieties of English are usually divided according to the modern states :  Bangladeshi English  Indian English  Nepali English  Pakistani English  Sri Lankan English

neg: Bembe language (Kibembe) Bembe ( Kibeembe ) is a Bantu language of Congo-Brazzaville . It is closely related to Kikongo . Pangwa ( not the Pangwa of Tanzania ) may be a dialect .   Maho ( 2009 ) considers Beembe , Kamba-Doondo , and Hangala ( Ghaangala ) to be distinct languages .   It should not be confused with the Bembe language ( Ibembe ) spoken in Congo-Kinshasa and Tanzania .

neg: Hadza people The Hadza , or Hadzabe , are an indigenous ethnic group in north-central Tanzania , living around Lake Eyasi in the central Rift Valley and in the neighboring Serengeti Plateau . The Hadza number just under 1,000 . Some 300 -- 400 Hadza live as part-time hunter-gatherers , although the increasing impact of tourism and encroaching pastoralists pose serious threats to the continuation of their traditional way of life .   The Hadza are not closely genetically related to any other people . While traditionally classified with the Khoisan languages , primarily because it has clicks , the Hadza language appears to be an isolate , unrelated to any other . As descendants of Tanzania 's aboriginal hunter-gatherer population , they have probably occupied their current territory for thousands of years , with relatively little modification to their basic way of life until the past hundred years .   Since the 18th century , the Hadza came into increasing contact with farming and herding people entering Hadzaland and its vicinity ; the interactions were often hostile and caused population decline in the late 19th century . The first European contact and written accounts of the Hadza are from the late 19th century . Since then , there have been many attempts by successive colonial administrations , the independent Tanzanian government , and foreign missionaries to settle the Hadza , by introducing farming and Christianity . These have largely failed , and many Hadza still pursue virtually the same way of life as their ancestors are described as having in early 20th-century accounts . In recent years , they have been under pressure from neighbouring groups encroaching on their land , and also affected by tourism and safari hunting .

neg: English-language radio English-language radio refers to radio stations that broadcast primarily in the English language and are located in countries where English is not an official language or majority language . Often referred to as `` English-speaking radio '' or `` Expat radio '' the broadcasts enables expats , vacationers and travelers to listen to radio in their native language while traveling abroad . The idea is that stations broadcast in English to popular holiday destinations such as Pattaya or the French Riviera or places with high expat communities . English language broadcasting also takes the form of military-backed radio such as the American Forces Network . However English-language radio based in foreign countries has to now compete with the introduction of internet radio and satellite technology that has increased listener 's access to English-language radio based in `` home '' counties .

neg: Banyamulenge Banyamulenge , sometimes called `` Tutsi Congolese '' , is a term historically referring to the ethnic Tutsi concentrated on the High Plateau of South Kivu , in the eastern region of the Democratic Republic of the Congo , close to the Burundi-Congo-Rwanda border .   The Banyamulenge form a minority of the South Kivu population . Rival ethnic groups in the late 1990s claimed the Banyamulenge numbered no more than 35,000 , while the Banyamulenge sympathizers claim up to ten times that number . The population of Banyamulenge in the early 21st century is estimated at between 50,000 and 70,000 by René Lemarchand or by Gérard Prunier at around 60,000 -- 80,000 , a figure about 3 -- 4 percent of the total provincial population .   Lemarchand notes that the group represents `` a rather unique case of ethnogenesis . '' The Banyamulenge of South Kivu are culturally and socially distinct from the Tutsis of North Kivu and the Tutsis who fled to South Kivu in the 1959 -- 1962 Rwandan revolution . Most Banyamulenge speak Kinyarwanda , and those that do speak it with a dialect different from other Tutsi groups . The ambiguous political and social position of the Banyamulenge has been a point of contention in the province , leading to the Banyamulenge playing a key role in the run-up to the First Congo War in 1996 -- 7 and Second Congo War of 1998 -- 2003 .

neg: Sumbawanga Sumbawanga is a city located in western Tanzania . It is the capital of Rukwa Region . The regional population is approximately 150,000 based on a 2002 census . Sumbawanga lies in the territory of the Wafipa Fipa tribe and so many people speak Kifipa , as well as Kiswahili , the most widely used language of Tanzania . The name of the town literally translates as `` throw away your witchcraft '' , thought to be a warning from local spiritual `` healers '' to any bringing in superstitions and practices relating to spiritual healers from other areas ; there are still some healers who practice both in town and in the surrounding smaller villages on the plateau . The town has the largest hospital in the region , Rukwa General Hospital , which is government funded , as well as the smaller Dr. Atiman Hospital administrated and run by the Catholic Diocese of Sumbawanga .   The town acts as a supply and commercial center for the Rukwa Region and some governmental agencies are to be found there , notably the transport department for the region . Sumbawanga has both Libori and Moravian conference centres . A modest-size market is in the town centre where local produce may be found . This includes maize , rice , fruit , poultry and fish ( from Lake Tanganyika and Lake Rukwa ) . Many imported plastic goods and electronics are available as well as bicycles and spares . Although there are several fuel outlets , supply can be quite erratic because of the difficulties of transport from the coast .   The local economy is largely dependent on agriculture and small locally owned businesses . There is very limited industry or production in the town . Significant improvement could be expected if the road to Mbeya was sealed to enable reliable all-weather access year round . This road , and its continuation north to Mpanda and Tabora or Kigoma , can become impassable at the height of the wet season ( Feb-Mar ) . The Tanzanian government does have contracts in place for upgrading large sections of these roads . The town can be reached by flights operated by Auric Air or by bus from Mbeya which lies to the south with train links to the town of Kapiri Mposhi in Zambia , to Dar es Salaam . Rail is also available through Tabora from Mpanda in the north . Mpanda also has an airport with a 2km sealed runway .   Sumbawanga has many schools and colleges , including Chem Chem Secondary School , Sumbawanga Secondary School , St. Aggrey Chanji High School , Mazwi Secondary School , St. Aggrey Teaching College , Musoma Utalii College , and Chem Chem Teaching College .

neg: Arusha Arusha is a city in northern Tanzania and the capital of the Arusha Region , with a population of 416,442 plus 323,198 in the surrounding Arusha District ( 2012 census ) . Located below Mount Meru on the eastern edge of the eastern branch of the Great Rift Valley , Arusha has a temperate climate . The city is close to the Serengeti National Park , the Ngorongoro Conservation Area , Lake Manyara National Park , Olduvai Gorge , Tarangire National Park , Mount Kilimanjaro , and Arusha National Park on Mount Meru .   Arusha is a major international diplomatic hub . The city hosts the East African Community . From 1994 to 2015 , the city also hosted the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda , but that entity has ceased operations . It is a multicultural city with a majority Tanzanian population of mixed backgrounds : indigenous African , Arab-Tanzanian and Indian-Tanzanian population , plus a small White European and a white American minority population . Religions of the Arushan population include Christianity , Islam , and Hinduism .

neg: Nande language Nande , also known as ( Oru ) Ndandi and Yira , is a Bantu language spoken in the Democratic Republic of the Congo .   The Nande of Congo and the Konjo people of Uganda are a single ethnic group , which they call Yira ( Bayira ) . They trace their origins to the Ruwenzori Mountains between the two countries . The languages are close enough to be considered divergent dialects . Nande has a number of dialects of its own : Nande proper , Kumbule , Mate , Tangi , Sanza , Shu , Songola ( Songoora , Nyangala ) , Swaga / Kira ( in Nande , all of these are prefixed with eki - ) .   For the varieties of this language known as Shu we are given the information that another language , `` EkiShukaali '' was formerly spoken by the women , the AvaShukaali . This may be a specific reference to some kind of `` secret jargon '' into which the girls , and not boys , were initiated .   Some of the Nande of Congo have a patron -- vassal relationship with the Efé Pygmies .

neg: Kagulu language Kaguru ( Kagulu ) is a Bantu language of the Morogoro and Dodoma regions of Tanzania . It is closely related to Gogo and Zaramo , but is not intelligible with other languages .

neg: Segeju people The Segeju are an ethnic and linguistic group from Mkinga District , Tanga Region , Tanzania , between the city of Tanga and the Kenyan border . The people are historically related to the Dhaiso . In 2003 the Segeju population was estimated to number fewer than 15,000 , with fewer than 7,000 speaking the ( ki ) Segeju language . . The Segeju have kinship relations with the Digo people , who are part of the nine tribes of the Mijikenda . The Segeju live in two areas namely the coastal and the highlands of the Usambaras . Those that live in the Usambara call their language Dahisu and call themselves Segeju .   Category : Ethnic groups in Tanzania  Category : Indigenous peoples of East Africa

neg: List of endangered languages in Africa An endangered language is a language that it is at risk of falling out of use , generally because it has few surviving speakers . If it loses all of its native speakers , it becomes an extinct language . UNESCO defines four levels of language endangerment between `` safe '' ( not endangered ) and `` extinct '' :  Vulnerable  Definitely endangered  Severely endangered  Critically endangered   Africa is the world 's second-largest and second most-populous continent . At about 30.2 million km ² ( 11.7 million sq mi ) including adjacent islands , it covers 6 % of the Earth 's total surface area and 20.4 % of the total land area . With about 922 million people ( as of 2005 ) in 61 territories , it accounts for about 14.2 % of the world 's human population . The continent is surrounded by the Mediterranean Sea to the north , the Suez Canal and the Red Sea to the northeast , the Indian Ocean to the southeast , and the Atlantic Ocean to the west . There are 53 countries , including Madagascar and all the island groups .

neg: 52nd Academy Awards The 52nd Academy Awards were presented April 14 , 1980 , at the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion in Los Angeles . The ceremonies were presided over by Johnny Carson who , in noting the long duration of the production , joked that President Jimmy Carter was working hard for their `` release '' from the ceremonies , a clear reference to the Iranian hostage crisis .   Among the nominees for Best Supporting Actor were 8 year-old Justin Henry -- the youngest Best Supporting Actor nominee ever -- and 79-year-old Melvyn Douglas . This was the largest age difference between two competing actors in Oscar history until 2013 . Ironically , their age difference was partially the reason why Douglas did not attend the Oscars that night , despite winning the award . Henry was nominated for Kramer vs. Kramer , which out of its eight other nominations , finished with five awards , including Best Picture , Best Director for Robert Benton , and Best Actor for Dustin Hoffman .

neg: 25th Academy Awards The 25th Academy Awards ceremony was held on March 19 , 1953 . It took place at the RKO Pantages Theatre in Hollywood , California , and the NBC International Theatre in New York City .   It was the first Academy Awards ceremony to be televised , and the first ceremony to be held in Hollywood and New York City simultaneously . It was also the only year that the New York ceremonies were to be held in the NBC International Theatre on Columbus Circle , which was shortly thereafter demolished and replaced by the New York Coliseum convention center .   A major upset occurred in the category of Best Picture . The heavily favored High Noon lost to Cecil B. DeMille 's The Greatest Show on Earth , eventually considered among the worst films to have won the Academy Award for Best Picture . The American film magazine Premiere placed the movie on its list of the 10 worst Oscar winners and the British film magazine Empire rated it # 3 on their list of the 10 worst Oscar winners . It has the lowest spot on Rotten Tomatoes ' list of the 81 films to win Best Picture . Of all the films nominated for the Oscar this year , only High Noon and Singin ' in the Rain would show up 46 years later on the American Film Institute list of the greatest American films of the 20th Century . For a film that only received two nominations , Singin ' in the Rain went on to be named as the greatest American musical film of all time and in the 2007 American Film Institute updated list as the fifth greatest American film of all time , while High Noon was ranked twenty-seventh on the same 2007 list , as well .   The Bad and the Beautiful won five awards , the most wins ever for a film not nominated for Best Picture . It was also the second Academy Awards in which a film not nominated for Best Picture received the most awards of the evening , excluding years where there were ties for the most wins . The only other film to do this was The Thief of Bagdad at the 13th Academy Awards ; as of the 87th Academy Awards , it has not happened since .   Until Spotlight won only Best Picture and Best Original Screenplay at the 88th Academy Awards , this was the last year in which the Best Picture winner won just two Oscars . It was also the second of three years to date in which two films not nominated for Best Picture received more nominations than the winner ( The Bad and the Beautiful and Hans Christian Andersen , both with six ) . This occurred again at the 79th Academy Awards .   Shirley Booth also became the last person to win an Oscar in a Leading Role to be born in the 19th century . She also holds the distinction of being the first woman in her 50s to win the award , at the age of 54 ( the second woman in her 50s to win , Julianne Moore , was 54 when awarded at the 87th Academy Awards ) .   John Ford 's fourth win for Best Director set a record for the most wins in this category that remains unmatched to this day .   For the first time since the introduction of Supporting Actor and Actress awards in 1936 , Best Picture , Best Director , and all four acting Oscars went to six different films . This has happened only three times since , at the 29th Academy Awards for 1956 , the 78th for 2005 , and the 85th for 2012 .

neg: Jordan Hall Jordan Hall is a 1,019-seat concert hall in Boston , Massachusetts , the principal performance space of the New England Conservatory . It is one block from Boston 's Symphony Hall , and together they are considered two of America 's most acoustically perfect performance spaces . It is the only conservatory building in the United States to be designated a National Historic Landmark .   The hall opened in 1903 , as a gift of Eben D. Jordan II , a Conservatory trustee and a Jordan of the Jordan Marsh retail store . Its architect was Edmund M. Wheelwright of Boston 's Wheelwright & Haven , who later designed nearby Horticultural Hall . The hall 's unusual square floor plan reflects its underlying plot of land but despite its shape , the hall has excellent acoustics , and all seats on both the main floor and horseshoe-shaped balcony have unobstructed views of the stage . The hall 's prominent organ is modeled upon one found in a church within the former hospital complex of Santa Maria della Scala in Siena , now a museum .   The dedication concert of Jordan Hall , performed by the Boston Symphony Orchestra , took place on October 20 , 1903 , and created quite a stir . Effusive newspaper accounts deemed the hall `` unequaled the world over , '' and the Boston Globe reported that it was `` a place of entertainment that European musicians who were present that evening say excels in beauty anything of the kind they ever saw . '' Even a decade later , it describes itself as an `` imposing Conservatory Building '' .   Jordan Hall has won numerous awards since its restoration in 1995 , including the 1996 Massachusetts Historical Commission Preservation Award , the Victorian Society in America 's Preservation Commendation , the 1996 Boston Preservation Alliance Award , the Illuminating Engineering Society of North America Award of Merit , and the Illuminating Engineering Society 1996 Lumen Award . The Conservatory 's main building , which includes Jordan Hall , was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1980 and designated a National Historic Landmark in 1994 ; in both cases the name used is New England Conservatory of Music .   Innumerable performances have taken place in Jordan Hall , including some 650 student performances a year as well as appearances by virtually every important classical musician of the past century . That list includes performers Nadia Boulanger , Pablo Casals , the Martha Graham Dance Company , James Galway , pianists Cyril Scott , Ferruccio Busoni , Angela Hewitt , Radu Lupu , Rudolf Serkin , Richard Goode , Krystian Zimerman , Garrick Ohlsson , Yundi Li , clarinetist Richard Stoltzman and violinist Isaac Stern ; vocalists Marian Anderson , Peter Pears , Dawn Upshaw , Ben Heppner , David Daniels , and Lorraine Hunt Lieberson ; guitarists Andrés Segovia , Christopher Parkening , Julian Bream , and Sérgio and Odair Assad ; conductors Arthur Fiedler and Kurt Masur ; composers Béla Bartók , Benjamin Britten , John Cage , Olivier Messiaen , and Aaron Copland ; jazz legends Stan Getz and Benny Goodman ; The Yale Whiffenpoofs ; and the Budapest , Juilliard , Guarneri and Tokyo string quartets .   Jordan Hall is home to From the Top , a National Public Radio classical music show hosted by New England Conservatory alumnus Christopher O'Riley . In addition , the Boston Modern Orchestra Project , New England String Ensemble , Festival Youth Orchestra , the Boston Civic Symphony , and the Boston Philharmonic play many of their concerts at Jordan Hall . In 1973 , The New England Ragtime Ensemble , then a student group called The New England Conservatory Ragtime Ensemble , recorded their Grammy Award-winning album `` The Red Back Book '' on the Jordan Hall stage .

neg: List of concert halls A concert hall is a cultural building with a stage which serves as a performance venue and an auditorium filled with seats . While early halls built in the 18th and 19th century were designed for classical orchestra , concerto and opera concerts and ballet performances , halls built in the 20th and 21st century were often built to accommodate a wider range of performance types , including musicals . In the 2010s , popular music such as rock music and traditional music such as folk music are also performed in these venues . Many concert halls exist as one of several halls or performance spaces within a larger performing arts center . In many towns , the concert hall is combined with a convention center . Concert halls typically also contain orchestral rehearsal rooms . Many larger cities have both public and private concert halls . Particularly in smaller cities with fewer alternative venues , concert halls may also be used to accommodate other activities , from theatrical performances to academic presentations and university graduation ceremonies .   This list does not include other venues such as sports stadia , dramatic theatres or convention centres which may occasionally be used for concerts .   The list is organised alphabetically by geo-political region or continent and then by country within each region .

query: Paul Newman has won several championships in open wheel IndyCar racing.

pos: Paul Newman Paul Leonard Newman ( January 26 , 1925 -- September 26 , 2008 ) was an American actor , IndyCar driver , entrepreneur , and philanthropist . He won and was nominated for numerous awards , winning an Academy Award for his performance in the 1986 film The Color of Money , a BAFTA Award , a Screen Actors Guild Award , a Cannes Film Festival Award , an Emmy Award , and many others . Newman 's other films include The Hustler ( 1961 ) , Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid ( 1969 ) as Butch Cassidy , The Sting ( 1973 ) , and The Verdict ( 1982 ) . However , he is perhaps best remembered for his role as the title character in Cool Hand Luke ( 1967 ) .   Despite being colorblind , Newman won several national championships as a driver in Sports Car Club of America road racing , and his race teams won several championships in open wheel IndyCar racing . He was a co-founder of Newman 's Own , a food company from which he donated all post-tax profits and royalties to charity . As of January 2017 , these donations have totaled over US$ 485 million . He was also a co-founder of Safe Water Network , a nonprofit that develops sustainable drinking water solutions for those in need .

neg: A. J. Watson A. J. Watson ( May 8 , 1924 -- May 12 , 2014 ) was a car builder and chief mechanic from 1949 through 1984 in the Indianapolis 500 , winning the race six times as a car builder . Rodger Ward won 18 races driving Watson cars .   A native of southern California , Watson came to Indianapolis in 1948 but missed the race . He returned the following year with a home-built car that failed to qualify . For the next 11 years , his cars not only qualified but were leaders in many years .   From 1955 to 1958 he was associated with the John Zink team , and from 1959 on with Bob Wilke . His first win as a car builder came in 1956 when Pat Flaherty drove the John Zink entry to victory in that year 's Indy 500 . Watson had won the previous year as a crew chief for Bob Sweikert . Watson 's cars dominated the race through 1964 . Although he continued entering cars for another two decades , he was never able to regain the commanding position of his heyday .   In 1964 , with many teams following Lotus 's example and moving to rear-engined `` funny cars '' , Watson built a pair of cars based on Rolla Vollstedt 's successful car . These worked reasonably well but could not reproduce the success he had with his front-engined `` roadsters '' . He built monocoque rear-engined cars in 1966 and 1967 with ever-decreasing success .   From 1969 until 1977 , Watson ran Eagles and then built a small series of highly derivative new `` Watson '' cars in 1977 , 1978 and again in 1982 based on Lightning and March designs before retiring . He is frequently listed on the Indy 500 entry sheet as the `` race strategist '' for PDM Racing , though his role with the team is largely honorary . He died on May 12 , 2014 at the age of 90 .

neg: McLaren McLaren Racing Limited , competing as McLaren Honda , is a British Formula One team based at the McLaren Technology Centre , Woking , Surrey , England . McLaren is best known as a Formula One constructor but has also competed in and won the Indianapolis 500 and the Canadian-American Challenge Cup ( Can-Am ) . The team is the second oldest active team after Ferrari . They are one of the most successful teams in Formula One history , having won 182 races , 12 drivers ' championships and eight constructors ' championships . The team is a wholly owned subsidiary of McLaren Technology Group .   Founded in 1963 by New Zealander Bruce McLaren , the team won its first Grand Prix at the 1968 Belgian Grand Prix , but their greatest initial success was in Can-Am , where they dominated from 1967 to 1971 . Further American triumph followed , with Indianapolis 500 wins in McLaren cars for Mark Donohue in 1972 and Johnny Rutherford in 1974 and 1976 . After Bruce McLaren died in a testing accident in 1970 , Teddy Mayer took over and led the team to their first Formula One constructors ' championship in 1974 , with Emerson Fittipaldi and James Hunt winning the drivers ' championship in 1974 and 1976 , respectively ; 1974 also marked the start of a long-standing sponsorship by Phillip Morris ' Marlboro cigarette brand .   In 1981 , McLaren merged with Ron Dennis ' Project Four Racing ; Dennis took over as team principal and shortly after organised a buyout of the original McLaren shareholders to take full control of the team . This began the team 's most successful era : with Porsche and Honda engines , Niki Lauda , Alain Prost , and Ayrton Senna took between them seven drivers ' championships and McLaren six constructors ' championships . The combination of Prost and Senna was particularly dominant -- together they won all but one race in 1988 -- but later their rivalry soured and Prost left for Ferrari . Fellow English team Williams offered the most consistent challenge during this period , the two winning every constructors ' title between 1984 and 1994 . However , by the mid-1990s , Honda had withdrawn from Formula One , Senna had moved to Williams , and the team went three seasons without a win . With Mercedes-Benz engines , West sponsorship , and former Williams designer Adrian Newey , further championships came in 1998 and 1999 with driver Mika Häkkinen and during the 2000s the team were consistent front-runners , driver Lewis Hamilton taking their latest title in 2008 .   Ron Dennis retired as McLaren team principal in 2009 , handing the former role to longtime McLaren employee Martin Whitmarsh . At the end of 2013 , after the team 's worst season since 2004 , Whitmarsh was ousted . McLaren announced in 2013 that they would be using Honda engines from 2015 onwards , replacing Mercedes-Benz . The team raced as McLaren-Honda for the first time since 1992 at the 2015 Australian Grand Prix .

neg: Fulford–Miami Speedway The Fulford -- Miami Speedway was a AAA Championship Car wood race track located in North Miami Beach , Florida . It was the first speedway built in South Florida . The 1.25 mi track was built in 1925 by Indianapolis Motor Speedway co-founder Carl Fisher , who was also developing the city . To help build the track , Fisher hired 1911 Indianapolis 500 winner Ray Harroun , who also served as general manager of the track . The track 's banking was at 50 ° , and as a result , cars had to drive at a speed of 110 mph in order to remain on the track without sliding off . In comparison , the Daytona International Speedway 's banking is 32 ° . Because of the speed the track 's configuration produced , the track was considered as the fastest in the world .   The track held only one event , the Carl G. Fisher Trophy in the 1926 AAA Championship Car season . The race was 240 laps and 300 mi , and was held on February 22 , 1926 with a crowd of 20,000 . The race 's official starter was Barney Oldfield . The pole position was won by Tommy Milton with a lap speed of 142.93 mph , while the race was won by 1925 Indianapolis 500 winner Peter DePaolo , with Harry Hartz finishing second , less than a minute behind . Out of the 19 cars competing , only six finished the race . On September 17 , 1926 , the track was destroyed by the Great Miami Hurricane ; the lumber that comprised the track 's surface was scattered across the neighborhood , and was later , after being recovered , used by the city for reconstruction . After its destruction , the area was taken over by the Presidential County Club . South Florida did not have a major auto race again until 1983 , when the Grand Prix of Miami was held on a street circuit in downtown Miami . Two years later , open wheel racing returned when CART used a street course at Tamiami Park for their season finale , the Beatrice Indy Challenge .

neg: Michael Andretti Michael Mario Andretti ( born October 5 , 1962 ) is a retired American racing driver , who won the 1991 CART PPG Indy Car World Series . A legend in CART , he drove in the series both before and after his time in Formula One with McLaren , becoming the third most successful driver in CART history with 42 race victories . Since retiring from the cockpit , he runs his own IndyCar team , which runs his son , Marco Andretti , as well as a team in the FIA Formula E Championship . Andretti is the son of Mario Andretti .   He won the 1982 Robert Bosch US Formula Super Vee Championship , and FIA Formula Mondial North American Cup the following season .

neg: 2003 Lexmark Indy 300 The 2003 Lexmark Indy 300 was the eighteenth round of the 2003 CART World Series season , held on 26 October 2003 on the Surfers Paradise Street Circuit , Queensland , Australia . A hail storm 20 minutes into the race caused an hour long red flag period and shortened the race to 47 laps from the scheduled 65 .   Ryan Hunter-Reay won the race , his first victory in top-level American open wheel racing . Neither of the two drivers who could still win the season championship , leader Paul Tracy and second-place Bruno Junqueira , finished in the Top 12 points-paying positions ( though Junqueira received two bonus points on the weekend : one for having the fastest lap in Friday qualifying , and the other for leading the most laps in the race ) , meaning Tracy had a big enough lead to clinch the championship with one race to go .

neg: 2001 Marlboro 500 The 2001 Marlboro 500 was a Championship Auto Racing Teams ( CART ) motor race held on November 4 , 2001 at the California Speedway in Fontana , California . It was the 21st and final round of the 2001 CART season and the fifth annual edition of the Marlboro 500 at California Speedway . The 220-lap race was won by Newman/Haas Racing driver Cristiano da Matta who started from second position . Max Papis finished second for Team Rahal and Forsythe Racing driver Alex Tagliani came in third .   Tagliani won the pole position but was passed by Bryan Herta on the first lap . Papis moved into the lead on the fifth lap and remained in the position for 54 laps more than any other driver during the course of the race . Most drivers chose to run in front of the field but not take the lead because they wanted to conserve fuel . The race was reduced from its original distance of 250 laps to 220 because of fading daylight and the event was delayed by morning rain . Da Matta held off Papis at the start-finish line to win after a caution period for a crash involving Scott Dixon ended competitive racing in the event .   There were eight cautions and a record-breaking 73 lead changes by 19 different drivers during the course of the race . It was da Matta 's third ( and final ) victory of the season , his first in Fontana , and the fourth of his career . Seventh-place finisher Michael Andretti moved in front of Hélio Castroneves to secure third position after the latter retired with an engine failure . 75,000 people attended the event .

neg: Indianapolis 500 pace cars The Indianapolis 500 auto race has used a pace car every year since 1911 . The pace car is utilized for two primary purposes . At the start of the race , the pace car leads the assembled starting grid around the track for a predetermined number of unscored warm-up laps . Then if the officials deem appropriate , it releases the field at a purposeful speed to start the race . In addition , during yellow flag caution periods , the pace car enters the track and picks up the leader , bunching the field up at a reduced speed .   Prior to the first `` 500 '' in 1911 , in the interest of safety , Indianapolis Motor Speedway founder Carl G. Fisher is commonly credited with the concept of a `` rolling start '' led by a pace car . Nearly all races at the time , as well as all Formula One races even to the present , utilize a standing start .   In almost every year since 1936 , it has been a tradition that the winner of the Indianapolis 500 be presented with one of that year 's pace cars ( or a replica ) . In most years since 1911 , the driver of the pace car at the start of the race has been an invited celebrity , a former racing driver , or notable figure in the automotive industry . Historically , the honor of supplying the pace car was , and continues to be , a coveted honor by the respective automobile manufactures and a marketing showcase for the particular make/model .

neg: USAC Daytona 100 The Daytona 100 was a USAC Championship Car race held at Daytona International Speedway in Daytona Beach , Florida on Saturday April 4 , 1959 . It was the first and only Indy car race held on the high banks of Daytona , and saw incredible speeds turned in by the front-engined `` roadsters . '' The race was part of a triple-header weekend featuring races for the USAC Championship Cars , Formula Libre , and a USAC-FIA sports car endurance race .   Both the Champ Car and Formula Libre races were won by Jim Rathmann . However , the weekend was marred by the tragic death of George Amick , who was killed in a crash on the final lap of the Champ Car race . Amick 's death came less than two months after Marshall Teague was also killed testing a highly modified Indy roadster at the track . Despite a predicted crowd of over 30,000 spectators for the weekend , turnout was disappointing . With estimates as low as 7,000 to 10,000 in attendance for Saturday , the event was also seen as unsuccessful and a money-loser . In the wake of the tragic circumstances , the blindingly fast speeds were deemed too dangerous for the track , and the Indy cars would never again race on the Daytona International Speedway oval . The sports cars , however , would return and the Daytona Continental later became an annual event .   The Daytona 100 was the first race of the 1959 USAC Championship Trail , and the first Championship race held in the state of Florida since a board track race at Fulford -- Miami Speedway in 1926 . There would not be another Indy car race held in Florida until the Miami Grand Prix in 1985 .   In 2006 and again in 2007 , the IndyCar Series held a compatibility test on the Daytona International Speedway motorcycle road course ( which skips the west banking ) , the first time Indy type cars had driven on the track in over 45 years . The test was to evaluate the facility as a possible warm-weather testing venue ( and perhaps a future racing venue ) . However , a race was never scheduled , and the series never returned .

Byrd was widely regarded as playing not only the role of United States Senator , but also as the powerful political boss of the Byrd Organization . He was notorious for his role in the `` massive resistance '' to racial desegregation by closing public schools rather than submit to court-ordered integration . Wensel 's candidacy was based on her opposition to the closing of public schools and to all forms of discrimination . Despite death threats , violent attacks on campaign supporters and cross burnings , Dr. Wensel received widespread support and more than 23 percent of the official vote count in an election governed by the Jim Crow policies that characterized Virginia elections prior to the Voting Rights Act .   After the 1958 elections , Wensel continued as a practicing physician until a few years prior to her death in Charlottesville , Virginia in 2005 . For much of her career , she specialized in psychiatry , and in the 1970s , she played a major role in introducing acupuncture as a mainstream treatment approach in U.S. medicine . She was one of main doctors to participate in the famous Washington Acupuncture Center .

neg: Stephen Gilson Stephen Gilson is an American theorist and policy analyst who is best known for his work in disability , diversity , and health policy through the lens of legitimacy theory and disjuncture theory . Co-authored with Elizabeth DePoy , Gilson developed Explanatory Legitimacy Theory . Through that lens , Gilson analyzes how population group membership is assigned , is based on political purpose , and is met with formal responses that serve both intentionally and unintentionally to perpetuate segregation , economic status quo , and inter-group tension . Additionally , co-authored with DePoy , Gilson developed Disjuncture Theory . This theory explains disability as an interactive `` ill-fit '' between bodies ( broadly defined ) and environments ( broadly defined ) .   Gilson has applied legitimacy theory and disjuncture theory to the analysis and enactment of health policy and practices related to access and to illness prevention . Along with DePoy , Gilson has implemented his vision of socially just policy based on universal access principles through the creation of a web portal that renders existing illness prevention information accessible to individuals across diversity category boundaries .   Gilson has received invitations to keynote at national and international conferences on disability studies and distinguished lectures at University of Illinois at Chicago , University of Michigan at Ann Arbor , Smith College , NYU , University of North Carolina , Ono Academic College , Research Institute for Health and Medical Professions , and others .
