I'm called Michael Burton and I was born and grew up in a town in southeastern England called Eastbourne. It's like the British version of Florida, but with only the retired old people and no theme parks for anyone over twelve. I now live in Bradford in Yorkshire, and actually quite like it. It is a bit run down, but has a nice charm of it's own.
I am a proud Englishman, but am also proudly Australian due to my mother being so. This can be annoying for Rugby League internationals!
My name comes from my beloved Cleveland BrownsNFL team, who in 1980 were dubbed 'The Kardiac Kids' due to their ability to win almost every game inside the last two minutes of the fourth quarter. Kardiac is spelt with a 'K' instead of a 'C' because of this.
When I edit on here, it's mainly articles to do with sport that catch my attention.
I have started an article about Shafik Asaad, a former Arab member of the Knesset. Most non-sport related stuff I do edit usually comes while I'm writing an essay at University. (University of Bradford) Asaad wasn't on here, so I started the article with the information I had acquired during research. Killing time, but also adding to my knowledge. Helpful that.
Censorship under the military dictatorship in Brazil consisted of restrictions on the media, artists, journalists, and others which the government deemed "subversive", "dangerous" or "immoral". The political system of the Brazilian military dictatorship, installed by a 1964 coup d'état and which persisted until 1985, also set out to censor material that went against what it called "morality and good manners". The constitution of 1967 established censorship as an official, centralized activity of the Brazilian federal government. There were several protests against the practice, including the Cultura contra Censura protest in February 1968, depicted in this photograph, which shows the actresses Tônia Carrero, Eva Wilma, Odete Lara, Norma Bengell and Cacilda Becker.Photograph credit: unknown; restored by Adam Cuerden
