Extinction Rebellion protestors ride through red light and block road in mass cycle to Heathrow Extinction Rebellion protestors say mass 'lie-in' at Heathrow is 'warning shot' and vow to get arrested at next protest if third runway goes ahead Protestors descended on Heathrow today to protest controversial third runway Boris Johnson pledged to lie in front of the bulldozers when elected MP in 2015 Referencing his comments, the demonstrators lay down in front of a bulldozer By Jack Newman For Mailonline
Extinction Rebellion protesters staged a mass lie-in in front of a bulldozer at Heathrow today after cycling there to protest against the controversial third runway. The climate activists said they were firing a 'gentle warning shot' against Heathrow's expansion plans, warning their actions would be more extreme if construction goes ahead. Their stunt involved a bulldozer, in reference to Boris Johnson's vow in 2015 that he would lie in front of one to stop the expansion. Earlier, the demonstrators blocked a road as they cycled to the airport and were recorded riding straight through a red light. Police cyclists escorted the protestors and one warned a jogger to get off the road, saying: 'You're gonna have to be careful mate, you're going to get hit.' One of the bikes was even designed to look like a bulldozer for today's protest. When the cyclists arrived at the airport, they performed a 'bulldozer lie-in' and acted out the future destruction bulldozers will cause when they begin building the controversial third runway. Johnson and McDonnell were invited to attend today's protest by the eco activists but neither responded to their letters. Spokesman Howard told MailOnline the protest was a'success' and around 300 people took part. He said: 'This was a relatively chilled action. If they actually start going ahead with the third runway, people will have to stop them and the action would be much more arrestable.' The action at Heathrow did not cause any disruption to flights in and out of the airport. Many of the protestors had the signature Extinction Rebellion symbols on flags and their clothing. Local anti-Heathrow campaigner Christine Taylor, said: 'Residents in villages to the north of Heathrow have repeatedly faced the destruction of their communities by a proposed third runway. 'Now, with communities around the world suffering the effects of climate change, it's time to scrap the runway and cancel the bulldozers once and for all.' Police allowed the protest to take place today on Bath Road but insisted it must finish by 3.30pm, threatening arrests if it strays from the designated zone. Heathrow's third runway is a controversial topic and one taken up by climate activists as a key battleground. They say that building the runway is incompatible with the Government's target to reach net zero carbon emissions by 2050, saying increased air traffic will only exacerbate the current problem. Kevin Anderson, Professor of Energy and Climate Change at Manchester University, said: 'At every level, expanding Heathrow flies in the face of any scientific, mathematical and moral interpretation of our Paris commitments. 'The strong support by many politicians for the expansion demonstrates just how thin their veil of concern is for our own children's prospects as well as the lives of poorer and more climatically-vulnerable communities. 'Set against this failure of integrity and strategic leadership, it is imperative that civil society steps up to fill the vacuum left by those purporting to be in charge.'

This happens when the font is not chosen or is inappropriate. Try using something like plain Arial. ZooFari
I don't have the time to find out how to do this, but it doesn't seem to be necessary anyway. See below. Thanks for the suggestion! Hans Adler
This works: Modular (the lower image on the right). I have simply reloaded the saved file (without the commas). Please nominate it for deletion from Commons when it's no longer useful. Perhaps uploading a new version of the original file with no change (or a trivial change) will fix the problem. Certes (talk)
OK, I think I am beginning to understand part of what happened. If I select "view page source" with your new file I don't get the commas. While I don't understand how the difference is even possible unless Firefox re-downloads the file when I save it, it indicates that the server is maintaining two versions of the file: The original, uploaded one, and a second version with the silly commas. Now if there are ungrammatical commas in the y coordinate, it makes sense that it is simply set to 0, and that seems to be exactly what happened: The letters have no descenders and appear with baseline y=0, so for some image dimensions they are completely invisible, and for some you can see the lowest line. The sizes and x positions seem to be fine. Thanks! So I will simply re-upload the images. But someone should seek out the server administrator who has run a faulty conversion script on the SVG files, and notify them. Otherwise they might use the same script again. And of course they should run another script to fix the problem. Unfortunately I don't know where to look for server admins. Hans Adler
For the benefit of anyone trying to debug this: This file should still be affected. I fixed the other by re-uploading. Hans Adler
OK, I think the mystery has been solved. It seems that I uploaded the file with the silly commas (I have no idea how that could happen), that Firefox tolerates them, that the server initially tolerated them, and that the server has become a bit more picky in the meantime. Thanks for your help. Hans Adler
== Freeware program for noise ==
I have recently submitted several images to be FP's and in almost every case they were opposed because of noise. Is there a good freeware program that can edit out image noise. I have downloaded GIMP and Inkscape but neither seems to quite do what I need it to do. I was thinking maybe there was an addin for one of these programs that would do the trick. == Wanna help, not sure how. ==
I've got a few images into better shape, but I am not sure how to put them on the pages. How do I replace the images that needed fixing with the fixed versions? Is there an easy way to simply upload it? B10Reaper (talk)
One way, you can upload over the original file by going to the description page on Wikimedia Commons (or simply here at Wikipedia if the file isn't at Commons) and click "Upload a new version". The more convenient way is by uploading the image as a separate file. ZooFari
Once you have the images uploaded, then just edit the page and replace the file name of the one image with the new one. You'll see something like yed at a much bigger font than what's wanted, thus it does not fit in the desired document dimensions. This happens when the font is not chosen or is inappropriate. Try using something like plain Arial. ZooFari

Care bear robots to ease staff shortages in Japanese nurseries Meanwhile, the demand for childcare far outstrips availability, with many mothers prevented from returning to work after having children as they are unable to obtain a place in the public childcare system. As many as 26,081 children were on waiting lists for day care facilities on April 1, the start of this academic year - marking a rise of 2,528 compared to last year - according to the health, labour and welfare ministry. Yuji Takashima, a spokesperson for Social Solutions, the Global Bridge Holdings subsidiary behind the childcare robotics project, told The Telegraph: "We believe that by supporting childcare education with this robot, we can contribute to resolving the shortage of nursery teacher and improving the quality of education."

===Petty ireland===
Apparently Lucy-marie made up a state in Ireland so that can be used in an article and won't be deleted as an orphaned fair use image. Fritz Saalfeld (Talk)
please follow this link as it a database of from places aroound the world and petty is mentioned as a place in Ireland
Doesn't say anywhere on that site that it's a state in Ireland though...
That's a list of family names. Petty is not a state in Ireland. Keithology Talk!
Ok then i have been mistaken it is the coat of arms of a family in Ireland and not a state in Ireland i will edit that then. Delete OK, it's a family name. And...? Delete Serves no purpose as an article. Keithology Talk!
Still Delete; probably even qualifies for speedy deletion (CSD#A7) now. Merge I have changed my mind delete the page but incorporate the image with William Petty as it was his family's coat of arms. If that is done please go ahead and delete the page. Conditional Keep—There certainly is such a place in Ireland (see the William Petty article and articles on his relatives mention of Petty estates, which comprises a geographic area noteworthy by Wiki practice). However putting an article up with no further information than a coat of arms is inappropriate. So my vote of keep is conditioned on adding enough substance to the article to allow us to figure out on a map where Petty is; after all we are an encyclopedia. Williamborg (Bill)
Comment, there is no place in Ireland called Petty. Petty estates merely refers to land and property owned by the Petty family. Nuttah68
changed to conditional keep same reasons as above but now that image has ben deleted the only condition of my delteion has been blown out of the water i think that it was inapropriate for the removal of the Image. Comment The image wasn't deleted, I just removed it from a couple of user pages per FUC #9. It is still used in this article. Seems the image (heraldry) is appropriate if linked to the Petty family—which one must suspect it is. If you can establish this, and if there isn't a copyright violation in using the image (probably not if it is old enough) then you can restore the image. Williamborg (Bill)
Delete. The heraldry belongs on the appropriate article. Other than that this in a non entity as articles go. Nuttah68
Delete useless article. Pathlessdesert
Speedy delete. The article I saw had been blanked by its original creator, with no other edits. No opinion yet as to whether it is worth re-creation. FWIW, I question whether heraldic images assembled from traditional public domain elements can be copyrighted. - Smerdis of Tlön
Comment While the coat-of-arms in question was used by Charles Petty, 1st Baron Shelburne, Henry Petty, 1st Earl of Shelburne and John Petty, 1st Earl of Shelburne, the Marquesses of Lansdowne did not use it alone, but quartered it with their paternal arms of Fitzmaurice. Choess

The Bosnian war baby still searching for answers, 20 years on This month marks the 20th anniversary of the worst massacre in Europe since the second world war. It's estimated that more than 8,000 Bosniaks (Bosnian Muslims) were rounded up by soldiers from the Republika Srpska and killed in and around the town of Srebrenica. Deemed an act of genocide, it was a war crime that came to symbolise the ugliness of the ethnic disputes that set the Balkans aflame in the 1990s. But amid the fighting and chaos that followed the break-up of Yugoslavia there were other sorts of war crimes that, while not as murderous, represented a particularly humiliating and psychologically damaging form of violence. Somewhere between 20,000 and 30,000 Bosnian women are thought to have been victims of militarised or systematic rape during the three-year conflict. "Women were often deliberately kept in detention until it was too late to get an abortion," says Belma Becirbasic, an award-winning writer and activist in the area. "Some of those who gave birth to babies murdered them and many abandoned them immediately after. Women were reluctant to speak out about the suffering they'd endured. Most still remain silent due to the fear that the perpetrators would not be punished, but mostly out of the shame of being shunned in a highly patriarchal society." Although abuses took place on all sides, the bulk of rapes in Bosnia were perpetrated by Bosnian Serb armies and militias and the large majority of the victims were Muslim women. How many children were born as a result is again a statistic that is unknown. "Rumours have been extraordinary," says Becirbasic, "going from several hundred to several hundreds of thousands." She warns that exaggeration of victims on both sides has been a central tactic in maintaining ethno-nationalist hostilities. As Charli Carpenter writes in her book, Forgetting Children Born of War, rape-related pregnancies became a "staple trope in media accounts of the war," with reporters competing to find newsworthy female victims. But that doesn't mean that there weren't plenty of cases of children born from violent conception. One such child was Alen Muhic. He was born in Gorazde hospital in 1993. "When I heard him cry," his distraught mother later said, "I asked the doctor to bring him to me. I wanted to strangle him." But she didn't kill her son. Rather, she abandoned him in the hospital and walked out of his life, apparently forever. The hospital workers took pity on the child and one of them, Muharem Muhic, the hospital caretaker, who had a wife and two daughters of his own to look after, decided to adopt the baby boy. For the first 10 years of his life, Muhic lived in happy obscurity, ignorant of the details of his conception and the identity of his real parents. Instead, he believed he was the son of Muharem and his wife, Advija, and brother to their daughters. Then one day in 2003, the story goes, Muhic got involved in a playground fight and his angry opponent told him that he was a "Chetnik bastard" - Chetnik is a derogatory term for a Serb, a reference to the nationalist Serbian militia active during the second world war - and that he was adopted. Around the same time as this incident Muhic met a film director named Semsudin Gegic who happened to know his biological mother. According to the director, the meeting was a coincidence: he was filming on the land of Muhic's adoptive parents and the boy independently approached him to make a film about his life. The film Gegic made, in 2004, was called A Boy From a War Movie. It was a short film, a strange synthesis of documentary, re-enactment and impressionistic flights of fancy. But it was a breakthrough moment. Previously, there had been little or no open discussion of this shameful episode in Balkan history. Now here was a 10-year-old boy, led by Gegic, telling his strange, benighted and touching life story. The film made a big impact at the Sarajevo film festival, was shown in Moscow and won an award at the Sofia film festival. It also paved the way for Grbavica, a feature film by Jasmila Zbanic that came out a couple of years after Gegic's short film and won the Golden Bear award at the Berlin film festival in 2006. Although Grbavica also deals with the fallout of the campaign of systematic rapes by Serb forces, it focuses on a single mother in Sarajevo and therefore deals with the subject from a more overtly female perspective. Nonetheless Gegic has a point when he says he initiated the artistic debate about this particular aspect of the war.

Mathematics reveals new insights into Marangoni flows -- ScienceDaily The Marangoni effect is a popular physics experiment. It is produced when an interface between water and air is heated in just one spot. Since this heat will radiate outwards, a temperature gradient is produced on the surface, causing the fluid to move through the radiation process of convection. When un-dissolvable impurities are introduced to this surface, they are immediately swept to the side of the water's container. In turn, this creates a gradient in surface tension which causes the interface to become elastic. The structures of these flows have been well understood theoretically for over a century, but still don't completely line up with experimental observations of the effect. In a new study published in EPJ E, Thomas Bickel at the University of Bordeaux in France has discovered new mathematical laws governing the properties of Marangoni flows. The Marangoni effect can have a variety of applications, for example in welding and computer manufacturing. Therefore, Bickel's findings could provide important new information for researchers and engineers working with fluid-based systems. Bickel found that in deeper water, the region in which impurities are swept away decreases in size with an increase in the surface's elasticity. Outside of these regions, Marangoni flows are cancelled out by counterflows originating from the impurities, meaning the fluid becomes static. The region can even disappear if the surface's elasticity is too great, in which case the concentration of impurities on the interface becomes constant. Furthermore, the boundary of the region becomes more blurred in shallow water. Bickel uncovered these mechanisms through mathematical derivations, starting from the known properties of Marangoni flows. He then incorporated aspects including water depth and impurity concentration, and he calculated their effect on the overall system. Bickel's research shows that even in old, well-studied physics experiments, mathematical analysis can still reveal new processes. make a difference: sponsored opportunity Story Source: Materials provided by Springer.

Cristiano Ronaldo's son scores brilliant free kick Cristiano Ronaldo's son, Cristiano junior, scored a brilliant free kick in a match Ronaldo senior shared the clip to his Instagram page captioned simply 'Boom' The star will be looking to replicate his son in the Champions League final By Matthew Smith For Mailonline
Cristiano Ronaldo's free kicks have become legendary in modern football - his legs-apart stance before striking the ball, the power, dip and swerve, the unerring accuracy. These are all traits the Real Madrid forward appears to have passed onto his son, Cristiano junior, based on a video shared by Ronaldo senior. The clip shows the youngster striking a free kick brilliantly into the top corner, with a strike his father would be proud of. Scroll down for video. The Portugal star certainly seemed impressed, sharing the slip via his Instagram page with the simple caption 'Boom'. In the 39-second snippet, Ronaldo junior's opponents certainly seem aware of his reputation - although the set piece is some way out, the keeper orders a three man wall and puts players on both posts. Young Ronaldo takes a long run up, and, after a team mate makes a dummy run, strikes the ball expertly with his laces. The ball is still rising as it hits the back of the net, right in the top corner. Although it goes to the goalkeeper's side, there are few footballers at that age who could get close to the shot. Ronaldo senior will maybe take a few tips from his son, ahead of the Champions League final next week, where Real play Juventus in Cardiff. Share or comment on this article

Craig Burley: Celtic sold me to sign Rafael Scheidt Former Celtic midfielder Craig Burley insists his 1999 transfer to Derby County was pushed through so the Parkhead club could sign expensive Brazilian flop Rafael Scheidt. Keep up to date with all our sport news on The Scotsman's Sport page on Facebook The Scottish international was a big part of the Celtic side which stopped Rangers winning ten-in-a-row in 1998 after arriving in a £2.5million move from Chelsea. However, he was out the door two-and-a-half-years later when English Premier League side Derby County paid £3million for his services. Scheidt, meanhile, was a spectacular flop in Glasgow. The defender would leave the club after only five appearances and is widely regarded as one of the worst transfers in Celtic's history. Burley, speaking to the Glasgow Is Green podcast, said he was sold at the behest of director of football Kenny Dalglish and chief executive Allan McDonald. He said: "This is how the deal came out: Celtic had to raise capital to bring in, wait for it, Rafael Scheidt. Somebody at Celtic thought paying £5.5million for that player was a good idea. "Celtic weren't in the business for paying £5.5million for anyone back then without selling someone else. So they were looking for sellable players. [Henrik] Larsson has a broken leg, probably wouldn't sell him anyway, and they couldn't sell [Mark] Viduka. Larsson's got a broken leg and he's the only fit striker. So you start looking around. Plus, I don't think they liked me anyway. "I played hardball for three or four weeks to p*** Kenny off, because Kenny always likes to get his own way. And I knew they had to get the money from my sale for the big hopeless Brazilian. "I used to go in every morning and they boys would say, "are you still here?" And at the start Kenny was threatening me with everything, like training at night under the floodlights. I was like, "I don't care, do what you want.""
Despite describing the 1998 triumph as the "greatest time in his career" Burley states he was happy to leave the goldfish bowl of football in Glasgow for something approaching "normality" in the East Midlands. There was an opportunity to stay when head coach John Barnes made a late appeal to the player, though his mind had been made up "The morning I was flying down to Derby to conclude my medical, and the wife says, "someone's on the phone for you." I said, "who is it?." She says, "it's John Barnes." "So I get on the phone and I say, "Barnesy, I'm leaving to go, what is it?" "He just says, "don't go, I don't want you to go." "I'm saying to him, "I'm getting on a flight in half an hour, I'm doing a medical, I'm going to Derby." And he's just saying, "don't go, I don't want you to go." But my mind had been made up. "Clearly, and this was an underlying problem throughout John's time, there were people behind the scenes pulling the rug from under his feet, and making the job for an inexperienced boss at such a big club even more difficult. "You couldn't make it up." • Listen to the full interview here. READ MORE - Pedro Caixinha says he felt "ashamed" after Celtic defeat

== nes bleaching in the sunlight.” By now he has changed completely since his first visit. He does not experience anguish, melancholy, or despair at the sight of the groundhog. Observing the groundhog’s bones as if it was “architecture” and a “geometer,” the speaker finally begins to see the beauty in nature and decay. The speaker visits the groundhog the following summer. He sees “no sign of the groundhog” in the “whirling summer.” As he is indifferent to the annihilation of the groundhog‘s existence, nature is not merciless or cruel to suffering, but it is just indifferent. Then he feels his “withered heart” and thinks of Ancient China, Ancient Greece, Alexander the Great, Michel de Montaigne, and Saint Theresa. He realizes that no amount of money, power, faith, or fame can stop one’s fate to die and decay. The speaker in “The Groundhog” is a man who experience extraordinary change. His “senses shook” and could only think about his mortality as he first saw the decaying groundhog. But as time passes by, he matures emotionally and his views on decay change dramatically. He is fully able to understand the inevitability of decay. He realizes that everything one lives for will eventually die and decay. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Canadiancofee (talk • contribs). ==english essay==

The Groundhog
August 22, 2007
Nature and Decay
In the “The Groundhog,” Richard Eberhart explores death and decay as the poem’s primary theme. The speaker in “The Groundhog” is a man who experiences a loss of innocence by observing the metamorphosis of a dead groundhog for three years. Before he saw the dead groundhog, the speaker was afraid of his own mortality. But as time passes by, he comes to realize that death is inevitable. His encounters with the dead groundhog shapes his perceptions and emotions surrounding death and decay. The speaker first meets a dead ground hog in June. In vigorous daylight, the speaker sees the “maggots’ might” on a dead groundhog. Soon after, he feels his mind outshoot “naked frailty” and his senses wavering “dim.” Due to his “naked frailty,” the speaker is reminded of his own mortality. So he pokes the groundhog with “loathing” and a “angry stick.” His frailty is “naked” because he is sincerely afraid of dying and his sense becomes “dim” because he is overwhelmed by anguish and despair. He becomes indignant as nature shows no remorse for the groundhog’s death. He believes nature to be “ferocious.“ This indignation is seen as he notices the “maggots’ might” on the groundhog while the sun shines with “Vigour“ and “immense energy.” He capitalize vigour to state that the nature is cruel to those who die. As he leaves the groundhog, the speaker prays on his knees to find “joy in the sight of decay.” This shows that the speaker views decay and nature as cruel and merciless. In Autumn, the speaker returns to the groundhog. He notices the groundhog’s sap has “gone out” and its “bony sodden hulk” remains. However, his emotions and perceptions towards death have changed since June. As the weather in Autumn is benign, he does not despise nature for being “ferocious” towards death.

Jio New Plan Prices Announced: Latest All-in-One Plans See Up to 39 Percent Tariff Hike Jio new plans have been announced, and they are being called 'All-in-One Plans' by the company. The Reliance Industries-owned telecom operator has followed Bharti Airtel and Vodafone Idea to unveil revised mobile tariffs with price hikes. To recall, Airtel and Vodafone Idea had announced their revised plans on Sunday itself, and they went into effect on December 3, while Reliance Jio had indicated it would be raising prices, but had withheld the revised prices until today. Jio's latest plans, more expensive by up to 39 percent compared to its older plans, go into effect from Friday, December 6. The new plans, according to rough calculations, are up to 25 percent cheaper than the new call and data tariff plans rolled out by its competitors Bharti Airtel and Vodafone Idea. According to new tariffs, Jio customers will have to pay Rs. 555 for 84-day validity and 1.5GB of data per day, which is 39 percent higher than the earlier plan of Rs 399 offering the same features. Jio, Airtel, Vodafone Idea Seek Floor Price for Data Tariffs, COAI Letter to TRAI Reveals Reliance Jio latest plans see it raise the price of the Rs. 153 plan to Rs. 199, the Rs. 198 plan to Rs. 249, the Rs. 299 plan to Rs. 349, the Rs. 349 plan to Rs. 399, the Rs. 448 plan to Rs. 599, the Rs. 1,699 plan to Rs. 2,199, and the Rs. 98 plan to Rs. 129. The Rs 199 plan is a month long valid plan, which offers 1.5GB per day, and is about 25 percent cheaper than the plans of rivals offering similar benefits at a price of around Rs. 249. Jio new plans are claimed to provide up to 300 percent more benefits to Jio consumers compared to previous plans. Airtel, Vodafone Idea New Plans Live: How the Updated Prepaid Recharge Plans Compare As we mentioned, these plans will go-live on December 6 and can be opted from all existing touchpoints. The new plan for 1 month with 1.5GB a day comes at Rs. 199 with unlimited calling from Jio to Jio calls and 1,000 minutes of fair usage policy (FUP) to non-Jio mobile calls.

Brachiation (from "brachium", Latin for "arm"), or arm swinging, is a form of arboreal locomotion in which primates swing from tree limb to tree limb using only their arms. During brachiation, the body is alternately supported under each forelimb. This form of locomotion is the primary means of locomotion for the small gibbons and siamangs of southeast Asia. Gibbons in particular use brachiation for as much as 80% of their locomotor activities. Some New World monkeys, such as spider monkeys and muriquis, were initially classified as semibrachiators and move through the trees with a combination of leaping and brachiation. Some New World species also practice suspensory behaviors by using their prehensile tail, which acts as a fifth grasping hand. Evidence has shown that the extinct ape Proconsul from the Milocene of East Africa developed an early form of suspensory behaviour, and was therefore referred to as a probrachiator. Upon further observations and more in depth understandings of the anatomy and behaviour of primates, the terms semibrachiator and probrachiator have largely fallen out of favour within the scientific community. Currently, researchers classify gibbons and siamangs as the only true brachiators and classify the great apes as modified brachiators. All other brachiation behaviours that do not meet either of these classifications are referred to as forearm suspensory postures and locomotion. Some traits that allow primates to brachiate include a short spine (particularity the lumbar spine), short fingernails (instead of claws), long curved fingers, reduced thumbs, long forelimbs and freely rotating wrists. Modern humans retain many physical characteristics that suggest a brachiator ancestor, including flexible shoulder joints and fingers well-suited for grasping. In lesser apes, these characteristics were adaptations for brachiation. Although great apes do not normally brachiate (with the exception of orangutans), our human anatomy suggests that brachiation may be an exaptation to bipedalism, and healthy modern humans are still capable of brachiating. Some children's parks include monkey bars which children play on by brachiating. As well as shaping the evolution of gibbon body structure, brachiation has influenced the style and order of their behaviour. For example, unlike other primates who carry infants on their back, gibbons will carry young ventrally. It also affects their play activities, copulation, and fighting. It is thought that gibbons gain evolutionary advantages through brachiation and being suspended by both hands (bimanual suspension) when feeding. While smaller primates cannot hold themselves by both hands for long periods, and larger primates are too heavy to exploit food resources on the ends of branches, gibbons can remain suspended for a significant period and use their long arms to reach food in terminal branches more easily. Another theory postulates that brachiation is a quieter and less obvious mode of locomotion than quadrupedal jumping and climbing thereby more successfully avoiding predators. == Types of Brachiation ==
Continuous Contact
This form of brachiation occurs when the primate is moving at slower speeds and is characterized by the animal maintaining constant contact with a handhold, such as a tree branch. This gait type utilizes the passive exchange between two types of energy, gravitational potential and translational kinetic, to propel the animal forward at a low mechanical cost. This mode of brachiation has been compared to the movement patterns of bipedal walking in humans. Ricochetal
This type of brachiation is used by primates to move at faster speeds and is characterized by a flight phase between each contact with a handhold. Ricochetal brachiation uses an exchange of translational and rotational kinetic energy to move forward, and is compared to a "whip-like" motion. Due to its aerial phase, ricochetal brachiation is similar to bipedal running in humans. == Models of Brachiation ==
Pendulum Movement
Continuous contact brachiation has often been compared to the movement of a simple pendulum. This is due to the out-of-phase fluctuation of energy that occurs while the moving primate is swinging between each tree appendage as the energy transfers from potential to kinetic, and vice versa. The use of gravitational acceleration to effect movement can be found in both the brachiating primate and the moving ball in a pendulum model. A brachiator can make use of this momentum in several different ways: during the downswing the primate can maximize its change in kinetic energy, during the upswing it can minimize loss of kinetic energy or it can avoid moving laterally during its upward swing.

Ivanka Trump Violated Hatch Act With MAGA Tweets, Watchdog Group Says The watchdog group noted how the image, from Donald Trump's 2016 campaign launch, prominently featured a sign bearing his campaign slogan, Make America Great Again. Ivanka Trump also wrote that "because of his courage, Americans are safer and more prosperous... and the best is yet to come!" the ethics group noted. The complaint alleged Ivanka Trump also violated the law by retweeting the following two posts (last month and in May 2018), which included the MAGA slogan in full and as a hashtag: The complaint acknowledged the biography on Ivanka Trump's Twitter account describes it as a "personal" feed. But "it is used to support and includes substantial indicia of her official government role," Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington said in the complaint. "Based on this confluence of factors, Ms. Trump's use of the @IvankaTrump account falls squarely within the purview of the Hatch Act, and she cannot use the account to make posts directed at the success or failure of a political party or candidate in a partisan race," the group said. Ivanka Trump promised when she started her unpaid governmental position in March 2017 that she would voluntarily comply "with all ethics rules" and serve "subject to all of the same rules as other federal employees," the complaint noted. The complaint comes one week after the Office of Special Counsel called for senior White House aide Kellyanne Conway to be fired following multiple violations of the Hatch Act. The president ignored the request and defended Conway. "It looks to me like they're trying to take away her right of free speech and that's just not fair," Trump told "Fox & Friends." "It really sounds to me like a free speech thing. It doesn't sound fair." White House social media director Dan Scavino, first lady Melania Trump's press secretary Stephanie Grisham and former U.S. Ambassador to the United NationsNikki Haley all have been found to have violated the act in the past. Noah Bookbinder, executive director of Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington, said "it had become clear that this rampant abuse of public office is not a problem of "one bad apple" but rather a key feature of the Trump White House." "By blatantly using her office for politics right after the Office of Special Counsel recommended her colleague be fired for repeatedly acting similarly, Ivanka Trump has basically thumbed her nose at the OSC and the rule of law," Bookbinder added in a statement. "Never before have we witnessed this level of illegal politicized behavior, and it must not be allowed to continue." Read the full complaint against Ivanka Trump here.

How does false starting and being disqualified give that person an advantage!? Because after the first false start *everyone* in the field is in danger of disqualification, and will therefore be more cautious reacting to the gun.- 81.79.157.142
Yeah, also the runners have to re-set themselves and get ready for the race again. They have to get their racing mentality back and put their mindset to running as fast as they can. Jazza5
I understand the logical basis for this tactic, but can anyone actually find an instance where this tactic is employed (at the professional level)? Honestly I've never actually heard of it; but then again, the way I've always raced is that a false start is an automatic
==Wind==
By the looks of it, the wind column in the mens top 100 metre is measured in metres/second. Can someone who is more knowlegable please put the units into the table heading to remove any confusion over units. ==Relevance of disqualifications==
Are disqualifications relevant to the fastest time to run 100m? Or is this merely a athletics regulatory bodies point of view? Well, if we are to include times which were disqualified, why not include wind-aided times as well? I think the rule of thumb here should be "legal" marks, marks which were set under legal conditions. BTW, I have clarified some of the notes here regarding ratified records. Gatlin can't be credited with having set a world record until the governing body of the sport - the IAAF - ratifies the record. And one of the reasons for the ratification process is to avoid the sort of snafus which we saw over the misinterpretation of the time he ran by the people at the meet. Canada Jack
The IAAF website still credits Gaitlin with a share of the World Record and 2nd place in the form rankings. Is there an authority that can be cited for his efforts having already been deleted. If not, they should be restored, because it is not the place of an encyclopedia to anticipate events, ne matter how inevitable they appear. Kevin McE
I agree. Ben Johnson's 9.83 record wasn't revoked until Jan 1 1990, more than a year after his Olympic disqualification. Last I checked (yesterday), Gatlin is still credited with a share of the record. Canada Jack
I should add as I think there may be a misunderstanding here, the thing I clarified in terms of Gatlin earlier was that he was NOT "briefly" the sole record holder at 9.76 s - because the IAAF never ratified that time. He was credited in the media with that "new" world record, but it was a pending record, pending the ratification process of the IAAF. They ratified the 9.77 s time. A time which, as Kevin notes, is still considered a joint world record until the IAAF decrees otherwise. I believe the IAAF issued a press release after Gatlin's admission of drug use that says they will await the appeal process he is undergoing where he wants early reinstatement. That implies that the record would only be revoked after the end of the appeal process. Canada Jack
I don't believe there will be an appeals process. i think he has admitted his guilt and he has been given an eight year ban by the IAAF with the possability of serving only four years for good behaviour. What ever that means. I assume the record will be revoked at the next IAAF ratification meeting. David D. (Talk)
Yeah, that makes more sense. Canada Jack
== Gatlin's world record ==
Here is a reminder: As of June 8, 2007, Justin Gatlin still holds the 100m world record with 9.77 (+1.7 m/s), as ratified by the IAAF. If anybody sees the articles for 100 metres, World record progression 100 metres men, Justin Gatlin, or Asafa Powell stating anything otherwise, pleasing change it back so that Gatlin is once again stated to be the co-record holder. So far I have not heard any updated news about when Gatlin's record may be revoked or at least taken under consideration by the IAAF. Mipchunk
== Heats? ==
Does anyone think adding a section to do with heats would be appropriate? I think for this article to offer information and inform the public about the 100 meter sprint more efficiently, I think that the Olympic 100 Meter sprint heat system should be fully explained and put in the article. Thoughts? Jazza5
The problem is that the structure of the heats in the 100m depends highly on specific competition, how many total competitors there are, etc.

Moises Henriques' jaw banded shut for next five weeks after nasty collision Nasty clash: Moises Henriques on the ground after crashing into Rory Burns. Photo: Supplied Moises Henriques, the NSW and former Test all-rounder, will have his jaw rubber-banded shut and eat food through a straw for the next five weeks, but could rebound from a shocking outfield collision with a teammate to feature again for English county Surrey this season. Henriques, 28, and Surrey teammate Rory Burns were both knocked unconscious when they collided during a Twenty20 match at Arundel, south of London, in mid-June, leading to worrying scenes with three ambulances driven onto the field and the players receiving oxygen treatment on the ground. Surrey's director of cricket Alec Stewart, the former England captain, said both players were progressing well. He said Burns, 24, could even play for Surrey this weekend but Henriques still faced an uncomfortable and frustrating month or so after surgery on a jaw broken in three places. "He's not wired up but he's got bands [holding the jaw together] and he's eating his food through a straw during that period of time," Stewart told Fairfax Media. "Once the bands come off he'll see the dental people regarding four of his teeth and they'll go from there. It's a slow process but he's improving by the day." Advertisement Stewart likened the frightening collision to the infamous incident involving Steve Waugh and Jason Gillespie in Sri Lanka in 1999, when the then Test captain was left with a broken nose and his fast bowling teammate with a broken shin. They ran into each other after trying to retrieve a top edge from Sri Lankan batsman Mahela Jayawardene. Henriques, one of a raft of notable Australians playing for English counties this winter, had appeared in two T20 matches for Surrey before the clash with Burns on June 14. "All the medical people involved have been brilliant and the two lads have been outstanding as well," Stewart said. "Everything is on course for full recoveries. Rory Burns is a chance to play this weekend. His stitches have come out and with Moises we'll wait until he's back to full health and decisions on his future will be taken by Cricket Australia and us. "Because he's still four to six weeks away from getting a good picture of where he is, it's impossible to say [when he will return to play] but the most important thing is for him to get back to normal so he can get back eating, start his training and go from there. We'll be doing what's best for Moises as will Cricket Australia." Henriques is not the only Australian to be hurt on the English county scene this month. Aaron Finch was taken to hospital after he was seen spitting blood following a blow to the chest while batting for Yorkshire's second XI near Birmingham on Monday. Meanwhile, retired former Australian Test bowlers Stuart Clark and Stuart MacGill will play at Lord's next month for the Sydney Cricket and Sports Ground Trust's touring team, the SCG XI. Clark, now the chief operating officer at the NSW Rugby League, and MacGill, an SCG trustee, will feature in a match against a Marylebone Cricket Club XI at the home of cricket on July 27.

Actress sues for facial injury allegedly suffered on set of 'Ghostland' A 20-year-old Canadian actress named Taylor Hickson is suing the production company behind the upcoming film "Ghostland" for what she describes as a career-altering facial injury she said she suffered on set. Hickson, who has also appeared in the film "Deadpool," filed the suit against Incident Productions Inc. on March 1 in Winnipeg, Manitoba, where the film was shot in 2016. The filmmakers did not respond immediately to ABC News' request for comment. In the lawsuit obtained by Deadline, Hickson said she was told by director Pascal Laugier to pound on a glass door with her fists during an "emotionally charged scene" in the indie horror film. After Hickson was told to pound harder, she said she asked the director if it was safe to do so. She said in the suit both he and a producer told her it was. Hickson then proceeded to do so and the glass shattered, according to the suit, causing her "head and upper body to fall through the door and shards of glass." The suit said Hickson was rushed to the hospital and received 70 stitches. Despite laser and silicone treatments, the suit said, she still has "permanent scarring on the left side of her face." The injury has also resulted in "mental distress" and "lost income," the suit said. "Prior to the injury she was an up and coming actor with a bright future in the movie industry," the suit said. Since then, the suit continued, she has "struggled to find work as an actor" and "will continue to suffer future financial losses." Hickson is asking for an unspecified amount in damages. "Ghostland" is scheduled for release later this month.

With the semi-final locked at 0-0, Scholes's magnificent, top-corner volley came from nowhere. It would eventually be enough to defeat a fine Barca side - and poignantly send United to a European Cup Final 50 years after the Munich Air Disaster. Craig Hope: Tino Asprilla, NEWCASTLE vs Barcelona To answer this I think you need to trust your instincts and not rely on a Google search. To that end, the first goal which comes to mind when I think of the Champions League is Tino Asprilla's hat-trick effort for Newcastle United versus Barcelona in 1997. It was Newcastle's first-ever group match in the competition and they were already leading 2-0 thanks to an Asprilla double when Keith Gillespie burned by left-back Sergi and swept a cross towards the penalty spot. Asprilla leapt and, seemingly defying gravity, hung for an eternity before heading his third goal and celebrating with his trademark cartwheel. The noise, the incredulity of it all, it was something to behold and the memory still lives strong two decades on. Riath Al-Samarrai: Zinedine Zidane, REAL MADRID vs Bayer Leverkusen No. That would be his boss (Zinedine Zidane) - the one where the ball comes down off a cloud and he volleys the winner in the 2002 Champions League final. Absurd goal. Laurie Whitwell: Cristiano Ronaldo, MANCHESTER UNITED vs Porto His thumping overhead kick was certainly peak spectacle, but for me Cristiano Ronaldo produced an even sweeter, awe-inducing strike for Manchester United. Needing to win in Porto to progress into the 2009 semi-finals, Ronaldo decided there was only one thing for it when receiving possession 40 yards out: smack the ball as hard as possible. Such was the distance, there was enough time from foot to goal for the brain to gradually process the incredible strike taking place and jaws dropped when it arrowed into the corner. Travelling at 64.2mph, it was frankly ridiculous. Adam Shergold: Zinedine Zidane, REAL MADRID vs Bayer Leverkusen I've chosen Zidane not only because it was a stunningly-executed volley demonstrating perfect technique but for the magnitude of the occasion. It is one thing scoring a magnificent goal in a run-of-the-mill Champions League match, it is quite another to have the audacity to attempt it in the final with the scores locked at 1-1. Rarely has there been a more jaw-dropping goal to settle such a big occasion. Share this article Share 4.4k shares

Almonte Lifts Aguilas Cibaenas Past Cardenales De Lara Zoilo Almonte broke a tie with a two-run single in the top of the ninth inning to lead Aguilas Cibaenas to a 4-3 victory over Cardenales de Lara on Sunday night in the championship game of the inaugural Serie de las Americas professional baseball tournament at Marlins Park. Almonte, a switch-hitting free agent who played for the New York Yankees in 2013 and 2014, lined his single between first and second base as the Aguilas, from the Dominican Republic Winter League, took advantage of an error by Cardenales shortstop Gabriel Noriega. The Cardenales, from the Venezuelan Winter League, had trouble with Aguilas shortstop Jonathan Villar, who hit a solo home run to start the game. Villar, who was traded from Houston to Milwaukee on Thursday, had two hits, two walks and three runs scored.

27-Year-Old Charged In Murder Of U.S. Army Vet, Found Wrapped In Trunk Of Abandoned Car - CBS Los Angeles ANAHEIM (CBSLA) - A convicted sex offender was charged Wednesday in the killing of a man whose body was found wrapped in a tarp inside the trunk of an abandoned Lexus in Anaheim. According to police, another kidnapping victim was also found inside the suspect's home when they arrested him. Antonio Silva Lopez, 27, was charged with murder, along with a felony count of kidnapping for ransom-extortion or to commit robbery or a sex crime, according to court records. Lopez is accused of killing 34-year-old Adrian Darren Bonar of Escondido whose body was found on Oct. 4 inside the trunk of the abandoned vehicle after a tow truck driver was sent to retrieve it. The tow truck driver believed the car - a 2007 Lexus - was suspicious and alerted California Highway Patrol who then alerted the Anaheim Police Department. The police responded to the abandoned car near the 91 Freeway and Gypsum Canyon underneath the connector road. According to police, the car was believed to have been at the location for as long as two days. "When the detectives looked at it, they felt that it was suspicious and they would treat it as a crime scene just to be safe," said Anaheim Police Department Sgt. Daron Wyatt. The entire vehicle was transported, with the body inside, to the Orange County Coroner's Office. Friends said Bonar served in the Army and was deployed to Iraq. According to police, he was known to frequent motels in Los Angeles and North San Diego Counties. Police said that when they arrested Lopez on Monday, he was allegedly holding another man for ransom, prompting the kidnapping charge against him. That alleged victim was not immediately identified and was being referred to only as John Doe in the criminal complaint. Prosecutors said the alleged kidnapping occurred between Friday and Monday. Police said drugs and weapons were also found inside the home. According to court records, Lopez pleaded guilty in October 2014 to statutory rape of a 12-year-old female relative in Santa Ana and was sentenced to a year in jail. Bonar's father said he had no comment on the investigation, but that he wants everyone to know that his family has established Adrian Bonar Foundation with the goal of helping those suffering from PTSD and drug addiction.

I wanted to let you know that I've created a whole bundle of articles that are basically copy-and-pastes of Bioguide articles with some formatting to bring them in line with WP style standards (plus the addition of categories, templates etc.) These articles are usually short, but they are also usually 100% verified by the Bioguide, so they are reliably "good articles." All U.S. Congressmen are notable, but of course, not all are notable enough to be put into a CD release or a print edition, so I wouldn't expect that every one of these articles would be graded and selected for inclusion. However, I just wanted to let you know of the presence and generally consistent quality of these articles. I love the 1.0 project and wish that I could do more to contribute - it's truly the future of WP. Regards, Paul
Woah, totally forgot that we did in fact collaborate on Dow. The Rally went superbly well - I didn't make it to Mongolia but I got as far as Tashkent, which, frankly, was good enough for me. I heartily congratulate your progress on the 0.5/1.0 project - please keep me in mind if you think I can be of use to it in the future. Paul

The final list has been assembled from the category. The category might not have updated everything, so add anything to the biglist that is missing. Otherwise, we shouldn't need to update it. It would be a better idea to use a bot to check for discrepancies so we can do something bots can't do. Eyu100(t|fr|Version 1.0 Editorial Team)
Thanks! I'll try and update the big list tonight. Do you have a bot we can use for the comparison? Walkerma
You can have MediaWiki do the comparison. Look here, I already did a chunk of it... :) Titoxd(?!?) Do you have a list of important redirects? It would improve navigation a lot. Offline search could be very easy or not depending on what software you can reasonably assume a user has (we assumed just a browser). We've run a few tests and decided a live search isn't practical for someone running it but a keyword (pre-indexed) search seemed more likely? I do think this is important, but I do not know how to get those redirects. For instance, on BozMo's original CD China was not on the list - it was People's Republic of China. Without a search, I was stuck. Wizzy…☎

Eleanor Towzey "Nellie" Stewart (20 November 1858 – 21 June 1931) was an Australian actress and singer, known as "Our Nell" and "Sweet Nell". Born into a theatrical family, Stewart began acting as a child. As a young woman, she built a career playing in operetta and Gilbert and Sullivan operas. In the mid-1880s, she began a long relationship with the theatrical manager, George Musgrove. In the 1890s, Stewart had fewer successful roles. Overwork had taken a toll on her voice, and she took several years off from performing, giving birth to a daughter with Musgrove. In 1902, Stewart had one of her greatest successes in the title role in Sweet Nell of Old Drury, and found another success at the end of the decade in Sweet Kitty Bellairs. After this, she continued to perform in both comedy and drama, and worked in theatre management, through the 1920s. ==Life and career==
Stewart was born in Sydney on 20 November 1858. Her father, Richard Stewart (originally Towsey)(c. 1826–1902), was an actor and singer who, in 1857, married Mrs. Guerin, née Theodosia Yates, a great-granddaughter of the famous actor and actress Richard Yates and Mary Ann Yates. Nellie's mother came to Australia in 1840 and took leading parts in opera. She played the title role in Maritana when the opera was first produced at Sydney. Her two daughters by Guerin were well known on the Australian stage as Docie (born Docy) and Maggie Stewart. The theatre was thus in Nellie Stewart's blood, but she was brought up strictly. The family had moved to Melbourne where Nellie went first to the old model school, and afterwards for a time to a boarding-school. She was taught fencing by her father, dancing by Henry Leopold and, later on, singing by David Miranda, father of Lalla Miranda. ===Early career===
At about five years of age, Stewart played a juvenile role with Charles Kean in The Stranger, and as the years went on took children's parts in pantomime. In 1877, she sang and danced through seven parts in a family production called Rainbow Revels, and in 1878 she played Ralph Rackstraw in an early production in Melbourne of H.M.S. Pinafore. In the following year she was a member of her father's company which toured India, and then went on to the United States to play a small town tour. Towards the end of 1880, she received an offer to play the principal boy in Sinbad the Sailor at Melbourne, which she accepted, and the pantomime had great success, running for 14 weeks and earning Stewart some recognition. In 1881 she was Griolet in La fille du tambour-major and the Countess in Olivette. During the next 13 years, Stuart was to take leading parts in 35 comic operas. In December 1883, she played the title role in Gilbert and Sullivan's Patience. As principal boy in the following Christmas pantomime, Stewart was careless when climbing the beanstalk, fell and broke her arm, had it set in the theatre, and completed the part. Forty years later, she recorded that her understudies seldom had an opportunity to appear. On 26 January 1884, Stewart married Richard Goldsbrough Row – "a girl's mad act" she called it in later years, for she discovered at once that she did not really care for her husband. They parted within a few weeks, and Stewart resumed her theatrical work. Among her principal parts in the next three years were Mabel in The Pirates of Penzance, Phyllis in Iolanthe, Yum-Yum in The Mikado, the title role in Princess Ida and Clairette in La fille de Madame Angot. She was a great favourite with the public, but her immense vitality led to restlessness and mannerisms which were commented on by the more intelligent of her critics, whom she afterwards thanked in her autobiography. About this time she formed an association with the well-known theatrical manager, George Musgrove, which lasted until his death. She had an unbounded affection and admiration for him, and he was the "great and good man" to whose memory she dedicated her autobiography My Life Story. In 1887 she retired from the stage for 12 months and went to London with Musgrove, returning to Australia in January 1888 to play in Dorothy, with the composer, Alfred Cellier, conducting.

United Airlines expects profit margin in lower range of outlook United Continental Holdings Inc (UAL.N) said on Thursday its pretax profit margin for the second quarter will be in the lower range of its earlier outlook and said the strong U.S. dollar has hurt demand from travelers abroad. The Chicago-based airline said it expects a pretax margin of 12 to 13 percent for the quarter ended June 30. Its prior forecast was for a pretax margin of 12 to 14 percent. It said its quarterly capacity grew some 2.3 percent from a year earlier, in the lower range of earlier guidance of 2.25 to 3.25 percent growth. Investors have called on U.S. airlines to taper their capacity growth to match weaker demand. United said it expects passenger revenue per available seat mile, which measures sales relative to the capacity and distance of flights, to have fallen between 5.25 percent and 5.75 percent year-over-year, within the range of the prior outlook. The carrier said it expects gross capital expenditures were higher than it previously forecast for the quarter because of a change in timing of aircraft-related deposits. It now expects to have spent between $1.24 billion and $1.26 billion, up from prior guidance of $885 million to $905 million. It said it had $5 billion in unrestricted cash and short-term investments at the end of the second quarter. (Reporting by Jeffrey Dastin in New York; Editing by David Gregorio and Matthew Lewis)

A state health agency (SHA), or state department of health, is a department or agency of the state governments of the United States focused on public health. The state secretary of health is a constitutional or at times a statutory official in several states of the United States. The position is the chief executive official for the state's state health agency (or equivalent), chief administrative officer for the state's Board of Health (or equivalent), or both. Following passage of the Safe Drinking Water Act of 1974, during the first ten years of the program the state health departments were given new and important roles under the law. Due to new grants available, they had enhanced their programs and had many more resources to oversee and help utilities come into compliance with drinking water standards, and they were able to develop other related activities like the capacity for doing risk assessments on new contaminants of concern. == Responsibilities ==
State health departments have different names and responsibilities; in some states they are top-level administrative agencies, while in other states they are a division or bureau of another office. Health departments are usually responsible for public health, including preventive medicine, epidemiology, vaccinations, environmental health (sometimes including health inspections), and the licensing of s; the collection and archiving of vital records such as birth and death certificates and sometimes marriage and divorce certificates; health statistics; developmental disabilities; mental health; occupational safety and health; receiving and recording reports of notifiable diseases; and tobacco control. In some states, state health departments may additionally be responsible for social services and welfare, environmental protection/pollution control, or the operation of the state psychiatric hospital. Some states have a Surgeon General. ==State health agencies (SHAs)==

Iran, South Korea, Carlos Ghosn: Your Thursday Briefing (Want to get this briefing by email? Here's the sign-up.) Good morning. A covert U.S. effort to undermine Iran, more troubles for Carlos Ghosn and the musical mating rituals of finches. Here's the latest: U.S. revives secret mission to sabotage Iran's missiles The Trump administration has accelerated efforts to thwart Iran's missiles and rockets as part of an expanding campaign to isolate the country, according to current and former officials. The efforts, initiated under former President George W. Bush and then eased under President Barack Obama, covertly slip faulty parts and materials into Iran's aerospace supply chains. The Trump administration maintains that the country's space program is merely a cover for its attempts to develop powerful ballistic missiles that could deliver nuclear warheads. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, who is in Warsaw this week for an international meeting focused on Iran, is expected to push European and Arab countries to expand economic sanctions against Tehran. Details: It is difficult to determine direct causes, but in the past month alone, Iran's two attempts to launch satellites failed within minutes. And in the past 11 years, 67 percent of Iran's orbital launches have failed, compared with the global failure rate of 5 percent. How we know: The two recent launch failures prompted The Times to seek out more than half a dozen current and former government officials who have worked on the sabotage program over the past dozen years. They spoke on condition of anonymity. Accused of spying: A former U.S. Air Force counterintelligence agent was charged with espionage after she defected to Iran to help the country's elite Revolutionary Guards target her former American colleagues. An attack in Iran: A suicide bomber killed more than 25 Islamic Revolutionary Guards in the deadliest attacks in Iran in years, for which the paramilitary force quickly blamed the U.S. Woes mount for Carlos Ghosn Renault's board voted unanimously to cancel tens of millions of euros worth of compensation that he was set to receive as its chairman and chief executive, days after the French carmaker notified judicial authorities that he may have misused company money. The news came as the embattled executive, who once helmed one of the most successful auto alliances between Renault and Nissan, tapped a lawyer known as the Razor to defend him against charges of financial misconduct. The move adds flair to a case that is already filled with drama and intrigue. Who is the Razor? Junichiro Hironaka, 73, has garnered a reputation for scoring acquittals in high-profile cases. He represented a Kazuyoshi Miura, who was charged with plotting to have his wife killed during a trip to Los Angeles in 1981, a case that riveted Japan for years. Mr. Miura was convicted in 1994, but the verdict was later overturned. Mr. Hironaka also represented a major political power broker who was acquitted of charges related to a political financing scandal in 2012. Outcry over Philippine journalist's arrest The co-founder of Rappler, an online news start-up critical of President Rodrigo Duterte, was arrested in a digital libel case against her media outlet. Maria Ressa was denied bail, according to a Rappler editor. In an emailed statement, she said: "These legal acrobatics show how far the government will go to silence journalists, including the pettiness of forcing me to spend the night in jail." The country's National Union of Journalists, called her arrest a "shameless act of persecution by a bully government." This case is the latest in a string of legal attacks against her and other journalists by the government. Background: Rappler has helped draw global attention to the brutal war on drugs Mr. Duterte has waged since coming into power in 2016. This arrest is related to an article that Rappler published in 2012 looking into questionable transactions between the chief justice at the time and a wealthy businessman. Analysis: Ms. Ressa's arrest represents the most dramatic sign yet of Mr. Duterte's crackdown on the news media. He has openly called reporters "sons of bitches" and has even warned he would not allow the renewal of the license of the country's biggest broadcast news network. The $89,000 verdict tearing Japan and South Korea apart Legal cases in South Korea over Japan's actions during World War II are creating a bitter dispute that has drawn warnings of devolving into "a full-blown diplomatic war." In October, the country's Supreme Court ordered a Japanese company, Nippon Steel, to compensate Korean men who were forced to work for the steel maker during the war. In January, a lower court ordered the seizure of some of Nippon's shares in a South Korean steel company, PNR, to pay for the reparation. At least a dozen similar cases, involving 70 Japanese companies, are pending in lower courts.

Tesco staff told mother to breastfeed in storage room A young mother was left furious after Tesco staff told her to breastfeed in a storeroom instead of the store's cafe. Lucy Foster, 24, from Plymouth, was sent to a closed-off storage area, filled with old Christmas decorations, by staff at the supermarket cafe while attempting to feed her newborn. She had ordered a cup of tea before asking a member of staff if she could breastfeed her then-seven-week-old baby. Ms Foster he claims she was then pointed in the direction of an area stacked with tables, chairs, and Christmas decorations. In a statement Tesco said it was a'misunderstanding' of its company policy on behalf of the staff and said that customers are welcome to breastfeed in all their cafes. But the childcare worker said, not only was the storage area 'unsafe', but that being hidden away made her feel 'ashamed' and 'quite angry'. Now, nearly a month after complaining to the supermarket chain's customer service department, she still hasn't received an apology. She said: 'I've heard nothing. I feel like I am being fobbed off and I am personally not going back there now.' Share this article Share 43 shares The incident happened on the morning of Sunday, January 7 when Ms Foster, whose baby is her first child with partner, Dan Beck, was waiting to be joined by a friend. As her baby had started to cry, she asked a member of staff if she could feed him. Recalling the incident, she said: 'The member of staff replied, 'It depends', before pointing me over to a place which was closed in by chairs. There was literally a wall of chairs around it. 'It obviously wasn't in use, and there were tables piled up in there, as well as old Christmas decorations. 'It didn't look safe, and I had to move the chairs myself to get the buggy in there. 'Because she had pointed to this area, I felt I had to go there, but it made me feel ashamed of breastfeeding my baby. 'I don't understand how such a big company can feel like that, especially when they supply everything for breastfeeding. 'There were only about four other customers in the cafe, and it is not as if I get my whole breast out; it is all very discreet.' Despite the circumstances, Ms Foster said the same staff member brought her over the cup of tea she had ordered and placed it on the table in front of her. She added: 'I don't understand how she could do that in that place and not think to move me. 'I could have easily been sat in the cafe and nobody would have ever known I was breastfeeding. 'When my friend arrived she couldn't find me, and we left soon after.' A few days later Ms Foster sent an email to the customer care team, and received a reply the day after to inform her the store manager would be in touch to apologise. But despite chasing the apology a couple of weeks later, it never came. She said: 'Their staff clearly aren't trained in basic customer care. Even if they sent me an email saying they were sorry, that would have been fine. 'I think [retailers] need to make it more friendly for people to breastfeed, and as comfortable as possible. 'If they are worried about people seeing us, there was other places I could have been shown to go, like the toddler area.' Tesco said: 'It is our policy that nursing mothers can breastfeed wherever they feel comfortable to do so in our customer cafes, and we are very sorry to hear that there was a misunderstanding of our policy on this occasion. 'A member of our café management team will be in touch with Lucy to discuss her experience so that we can learn from it and ensure we provide breastfeeding mothers with a warm welcome.'

Charlotte Delbo, (10 August 1913 – 1 March 1985) was a French writer chiefly known for her haunting memoirs of her time as a prisoner in Auschwitz, where she was sent for her activities as a member of the French resistance. ==Biography==
===Early life===
Born in Vigneux-sur-Seine, Essonne near Paris, Delbo gravitated toward theater and politics in her youth, joining the French Young Communist Women's League in 1932. She met and married George Dudach two years later. Later in the decade she went to work for actor and theatrical producer Louis Jouvet and was with his company in Buenos Aires when Wehrmacht forces invaded and occupied France in 1940. She could have waited to return when Philippe Pétain, leader of the collaborationist Vichy regime, established special courts in 1941 to deal with members of the resistance. One sentenced a friend of hers, a young architect named Andre Woog, to death. "I can't stand being safe while others are guillotined", she told Jouvet. "I won't be able to look anyone in the eye." ===Resistance and arrest===
Accordingly, she returned to Paris and Dudach, who was already active in the resistance as the assigned courier for the internationally famous poet Louis Aragon. The couple spent much of that winter printing and distributing pamphlets and other anti-Nazi Germany reading material. They became part of the group around communist philosopher Georges Politzer, and took an active role in publishing the underground journal Lettres Françaises. On 2 March 1942, police followed a careless courier to their apartment, and arrested George and Charlotte. The courier was able to escape from a back window. ===Time in camps===
Dudach was shot on the morning of 23 May after being allowed to bid his wife farewell. Delbo was held in transit camps near Paris for the rest of the year; then on 23 January 1943 she and 229 other Frenchwomen, imprisoned for their resistance activities, were put on a train for the Auschwitz concentration camp. It was one of only a few convoys of non-Jewish prisoners from France to that camp (most were sent to the Mauthausen-Gusen concentration camp or other camps for political prisoners) and the only convoy of women. Only 49 returned; she wrote about this experience later in Le convoi du 24 janvier (published in English as Convoy to Auschwitz). The convoy entered camp legend as the only one to enter the gates singing: they sang "La Marseillaise", as one woman, Annette Epaux, would again later on her way to the gas chamber. Other Frenchwomen of note on that convoy were Marie-Claude Vaillant-Couturier, daughter of magazine editor Lucien Vogel and Communist heroine, who would later testify at the Nuremberg Trials of war criminals; France Rondeaux, a cousin of André Gide; Vittoria "Viva" Daubeuf, daughter of Italian socialist leader and future deputy prime minister Pietro Nenni; Simone Sampaix, daughter of the editor of L'Humanité; Marie "Mai" Politzer, wife of sociologist Georges Politzer; Adelaide "Heidi" Hautval, a doctor who would save many inmates and testify against Nazi medical atrocities; and Helene Solomon-Langevin, daughter of physicist Paul Langevin. It was partly thanks to the presence of several scientists among the prisoners (others were Laure Gatet and Madeleine Dechavassine) that a few, Delbo included, were selected to farm kok-saghyz and survived. Most of the women on the convoy, however, were poor and uneducated and nearly all Communists. One of their number, Danielle Casanova, would be eulogized as a Communist martyr and role model for many years. Delbo later debunked much of the Casanova legend. She paid more tribute to her working-class friends such as Lulu Thevenin, Christiane "Cecile" Charua (later married to historian and Mauthausen survivor Jose Borras), Jeannette "Carmen" Serre, Madeleine Doiret, and Simone "Poupette" Alizon, many of whom figure prominently in her memoirs. The women were in Auschwitz, first at Birkenau and later the Raisko satellite camp, for about a year before being sent to Ravensbrück and finally released to the custody of the Swedish chapter of the International Red Cross in 1945 as the war drew to a close. After recuperating, Delbo returned to France.

== Photograph for article ==
I tried to integrate this photograph into the article but it caused trouble with the text around the ursamajor-guide image. I hope someone in the future can find a way to integrate this into the article with out it causing damage to the article. Triddle
Ok, nice photo. How's it look now? I put it in the notes field of the infobox. If it could be cropped on the right, it would make the fainter stars look better. -Wikibob | Talk 00:18, 2005 Apr 1 (UTC)
Nice! Thanks =) I cropped the photo to just Ursa Major now and it sure looks better. Triddle
== Bear ==
The article should explain how the constellation looks like a bear. I can't see it myself. I included this image. Does it make sense now? Makes sense, but I still think it is very tenuous! Ok, the tail looks a bit like a tail, but I fail to see how four stars in a trapezium that make up half the bear's body mean the constellation is a bear. Bizarre. :I suspect you're considering the Big Dipper as being equivalent to the constellation Ursa Major; the Dipper is only part of it. Strictly speaking, the Big Dipper is an asterism, not officially a constellation. The Hevelius picture is not very clear to me either. I've seen other pictures that make it more clear. There are some stars that suggest legs and paws, and there's a triangle for the head. But there is something funny. Think about it; have you ever seen a bear with a long tail? 140.147.160.78 Stephen Kosciesza
== Big Dipper v. Ursa Major ==
I changed 213.100.150.190's edit of October 13th back to read Big Dipper instead of Ursa Major when discussing the asterism of the Big Dipper that is part of the larger constellation. but ursa major is more of a sintific name!!!! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 207.118.163.6 (talk)
== Plough only ==
The picture at the top only shows The Plough (aka The Big Dipper in the US) not the whole constellation of Ursa Major. It provides a link to a diagram of The Plough, so why isn't there one of all of Ursa Major? Which picture are you referring to? The one in the infobox at the top is of the whole constellation. I was refering to the picture at the top, and the whole constellation isn't highlighted, only the asterism of 'The Plough'. The way how lines are drawn in a constellation map is more or less just aesthetics. The constellation maps here on Wikipedia seem to follow rather minimalistic style. aesthetics or not, the way the stars are highlighted right now is confusing and might make a lot of people think that the big plough/big dipper is actually ursa major and i doubt that's what the article should go after.

==Wider table==
You should add right ascension, declination, absolute magnitude and spectral type to every star table. For the right ascension and declination, you should put the digits of seconds down to hundredths. For the absolute magnitude, don't put the plus sign if it is positive and put the minus sign before negative. For spectral type, you must put the spectral letter, a number, a luminosity class, and other like peculiar lines (p) and m.... lines (m). For the distance, you should add the known distances to the blanks like a lot of Flamsteed stars and Bayer stars with Latin letters. And also correct the distances that I added from the parallaxes in alcyone software that is only down to thousands but it should be down to hundredth-thousandths or it should be in milliarcseconds down only to hundredths. If it is wrong, you must change it and causes the correction of absolute magnitude. The table below lists in order from left to right is shown. Bayer designation {BD} || Flamsteed designation {F} || Names and other designations || Right Ascension || Declination || Apparent magnitude {App Mag} || Absolute magnitude {Abs Mag} || Distance (Ly) || Distance (Pc) || Spectral type || Comments —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 75.57.140.150 (talk). The list should be moved to List of stars in Ursa Major (cf. List of stars in Andromeda). It doesn't belong to the main article.

Bank or building society: which pays more? By comparison, banks paid on average 0.05 of a percentage point less on closed accounts than on new accounts. Banks' treatment of existing customers has been highlighted regularly by Telegraph Money, particularly last year when many of the banking giants cut the rates on their savings accounts for loyal customers. For instance, in August Barclays announced it was reducing interest rates for around 1.6 million cash Isa customers. The 11 accounts that were affected were all closed to new customers. A week later HSBC said it would be cutting the rate on its e-Isa account, from 1.6pc to 1pc, a deal also closed to new customers. Building societies, of which about 50 remain, are owned by their customers and do not have to pay dividends to shareholders like banks. Instead, any surplus profits should benefit customers in the form of higher rates for savers and lower rates for borrowers. Susan Hannums, a director of Savings Champion, said: "Building societies continue to outperform banks, especially in recent years as many of the leading high street providers have retreated from the savings market, showing less desire to hold on to existing customers or attract new savers by offering competitive rates." Brian Morris, head of savings policy at the Building Societies Association, said the societies had "a good track record" of giving savers a fair deal. He said: "Not only are average interest rates higher at building societies, but savers in closed accounts are not disadvantaged relative to new customers." The best savings rates: bank or building society? Data includes all building Societies plus KRBS, and all other deposit takers (banks including the Co-op).

Mozambique: Companies Still Stealing From Their Workers Maputo - Companies owe Mozambique's National Social Security Institute (INSS) 2.397 billion meticais (about 40 million US dollars), according to Labour Minister Vitoria Diogo, cited by the independent television station STV. This is money discounted from workers' wages, but not transferred to the INSS. It is thus a case of employers stealing on a grand scale from their work force. Workers whose contributions have not been channelled to the INSS find themselves unable to receive social security benefits. 223 cases, accounting for 32.6 million meticais of the debt, are awaiting trial in the Labour Tribunals, Diogo said. Another 874 cases are pending in the various branches of the public prosecutor's office, and over a billion meticais are being chased through tax collection channels. Diogo, who was speaking on Friday at a seminar on collecting social security debts, claimed that some companies accumulate debt without knowing about it. They claim to have delegated the task of paying the social security contribution to accountants and book-keepers. Diogo urged all employers to visit the electronic platforms operated by the INSS which show the true situation of their contributions. Workers can access the platform "My contribution, my benefit," to check whether their employers have channelled the social security contributions discounted from their wages to the INSS. The Minister said that, over the 2015-2019 period, the INSS has recovered 2.64 billion meticais of debt, which compares with only 838 million meticais recovered in the previous five year period. Most of the money - 2.53 billion meticais - was collected through extra-judicial channels, and only 115 million meticais through the courts.

MAFS' Sharon refuses to deny pregnancy rumours with Nick She has been facing pregnancy rumours ever since photos emerged of her shopping for baby clothes in a magazine. And now Married At First Sight star Sharon Marsh has fueled more speculation she's expecting with 'husband' Nick Furphy, by refusing to deny she's pregnant in a recent interview. 'You can judge for yourself,' the 31-year-old told The Daily Telegraph when probed about the rumours. Scroll down for video 'You'll have to wait and see,' she added. Share this article Share 26 shares Without divulging further details, she hinted once again at wanting children with the remark, 'I'll be so proud to tell my grandkids' about how the reality show couple met. The lovebirds were joined by Sharon's twin Michelle and her rumoured new beau Jono Pitman at the Formula One Grand Prix in Melbourne on Sunday. Nick dubiously held onto his wife's mid-section as the group posed for photos, even glancing down towards it in one pic. Michelle and Jono, who starred in Married At First Sight's second season, were reportedly introduced by Nick and have been spending time together. One of the reality show's most famous love rats, he recently revealed to The Daily Telegraph he and Michelle had developed a special connection. 'Michelle and I got in contact with each other a little while ago as we both had similar situations on the show,' he described. 'Jono is the guy Michelle has always wanted,' an alleged source told NW this week. Meanwhile things appear to be getting serious for her sister Sharon, whose relationship with Nick strengthened from the moment they tied the knot on TV. The statuesque pair are reportedly looking to take their'marriage' to the next level with an interstate move. However there's no word so far on if Sharon will move to Melbourne for Nick or he'll move to Perth to start a new life with her.

It will inevitably lead to more questions over whether Pogba and United are such a good fit, given the sense he has yet to fully display his ability on a consistent basis. Mourinho was asked whether he took off Pogba because he had a yellow card and was at risk of getting sent off. The Portuguese gave a cryptic one-word response: "Also." Man of the match - Ben Foster (West Brom) West Brom goalkeeper Ben Foster made two important saves - both from Romelu Lukaku - and was generally a reassuring presence behind the visitors' defence 'The players expressed themselves' - what they said Man Utd 0-1 West Brom: Darren Moore delighted for Baggies players West Brom caretaker boss Darren Moore: "We played against a really formidable team today, asked a lot of questions, but everyone worked hard and did their jobs. "I'm proud for players and staff and way they have acquitted themselves today. "I want the players to express themselves, show the outside world what good players they are. I am pleased we managed to show everyone that." Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho: "I won eight titles and I am not on the moon because I won against Manchester City. "I saw lots of people on the moon because we won against City. You could see the difference in the attitude to players compared to last week. "We deserve to be punished, but the defeat was too heavy." Old Trafford's title record - the stats This was the fifth season in which the Premier League title was decided at Old Trafford - more than any other ground in the competition. West Brom have lost one of their past five Premier League visits to Old Trafford (W3 D1 L1) This was just the second time in Premier League history that United have lost at home to a side starting that day as the bottom club. Darren Moore has taken two matches to equal Alan Pardew's total number of Premier League wins (one in 18 games) as West Brom manager. Moore has led Albion to four points in his two games as caretaker boss - the same tally of points Alan Pardew secured in his final 11 league games in charge. Jay Rodriguez has scored three goals in his past four Premier League appearances - as many as he did in his previous 26 combined. What's next? Manchester United visit Bournemouth in the Premier League for a 19:45 BST kick-off on Wednesday. They then have an FA Cup semi-final against Tottenham at Wembley on Saturday (17:15). West Brom host in-form Liverpool in Saturday's early Premier League match (12:30).

==Asian 10,000 Challenge invite==
Hi. The WikiProject Asia/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland The 10,000 Challenge and WikiProject Africa/The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like South East Asia, Japan/China or India etc, much like The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. At some stage we hope to run some contests to benefit Asian content, a destubathon perhaps, aimed at reducing the stub count would be a good place to start, based on the current WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon which has produced near 200 articles in just three days. If you would like to see this happening for Asia, and see potential in this attracting more interest and editors for the country/countries you work on please sign up and being contributing to the challenge! This is a way we can target every country of Asia, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant! Thank you. == New deal for page patrollers ==

Top albums of 2015: Adele, Justin Bieber and Alabama Shakes More than hit singles, albums are works of art that move you to think, reflect, dance and smile. Here are 10 albums that did that in 2015, according to Associated Press music editor Mesfin Fekadu. 1. "Blue Neighborhood," Troye Sivan: Just as the battle for album of the year was going down between Kendrick Lamar and Adele, enter a multi-layered, experimental pop record by a newcomer from South Africa by way of Australia. Released on Dec. 4, Sivan's "Blue Neighborhood" is remarkable from its opening number, the cool mid-tempo jam "WILD," to the other 15 tracks best described as broody pop music. Though just 20 years old, Sivan's voice is mature and striking, and it serves as the anchor for this collection of epic songs. 2. "To Pimp a Butterfly," Kendrick Lamar: Lamar's brave storytelling continues to push the envelope, and his sophomore album not only pushes him ahead of his rap peers, but his pop and rock ones, too. 3. "25," Adele: I don't need to explain this. 4. "Purpose," Justin Bieber: Now this I need to explain. Bieber's new album is outstanding and though he's been singing for years, with "Purpose" he's finally actually saying something. 5. "Rebel Heart," Madonna: Most icons dropping albums in 2015 are misses, but Madonna's "Rebel Heart" is a contemporary classic that puts albums from other female artists half her age to shame. It's unfortunate that Top 40 radio stations didn't play the many hits this album could have provided, from "Bitch I'm Madonna" to "Joan of Arc." 6. "Carrie & Lowell," Sufjan Stevens: Stevens' indie folk adventure dubbed "Carrie & Lowell" is a must-listen that is highlighted by his breathy vocals. 7. "Hamilton (Original Broadway Cast Recording)," Various artists: The Broadway play "Hamilton," written by Lin-Manuel Miranda, tells the story of Founding Father Alexander Hamilton through rap songs, R&B jams and pop ballads. It's pure heaven. 8. "Sound & Color," Alabama Shakes: Frontwoman Brittany Howard is such a powerhouse, both with her voice and with the pen. Songs like "Don't Wanna Fight" and the untouchable "Gimme All Your Love" are groundbreaking and enjoyable. 9. "Reality Show," Jazmine Sullivan: In her first album in five years, Sullivan returns with a confident R&B effort that is just as strong as her previous releases, thanks to groovy tracks like "Mascara" and "Let It Burn." 10. "Unbreakable," Janet Jackson: Miss Jackson's return to music included a killer tour and an album full of upbeat and touching songs that will make you dance and cry.

Child of the Wolves is a children's novel, published in 1996, about a Siberian husky puppy that joins a wolf pack. It was written by Elizabeth Hall, wife of Island of the Blue Dolphins author, Scott O'Dell. ==Plot==
Granite is born on a snowy April day in Alaska. For the first weeks of his life, he lives in the kennels, playing with his siblings Digger, Cricket, and Nugget. Even though their mother Seppala gets sick, life is good there. His owners, Tim and Kate, take good care of him. Granite differs from the other pups. He is not eager to train to be a sled dog. One day, when the pups are ten-weeks-old, a man shows up to buy Granite and his sister Cricket. Even though Cricket is bought and does not mind going to a new home, Granite does not want to leave his mother and runs away from where he grew up. He runs away into the Alaskan wilderness. After days wandering alone, hungry and injured, the Siberian husky puppy meets a wolf pack, led by a black wolf named Ebony and his mate, Snowdrift the white wolf, whose pups were kidnapped weeks before. She takes Granite in. Snowdrift raises the dog as a foster son and teaches him to hunt mice. That seems to help her get over some pain in losing her pups. It is mentioned that her pups were stolen by humans who wanted to breed young wolves to huskies, for wolfdogs are worth a lot of money. Even though he protects Granite, Ebony does not like him, and neither do Strider (Ebony's brother, Granite's chief tormentor), Roamer (Ebony and Snowdrift's two-year-old son), and Breeze (a female wolf who came to them from a pack in the west). The other wolf who likes Granite is Snowdrift's yearling son, Climber. Granite and Climber become fast friends. Granite is less afraid of Climber because the young wolf had a "husky face", and Climber was pleased to have a younger member (so his rank rises) regardless of Granite being a dog. Another reason the pair play together is that Climber is still young, and was a pup not a long time ago. Ebony pretends the dog is not there, and Breeze feeds Granite only to humor Ebony. Roamer and Strider feed him just to show Snowdrift. When she is not there, they take back what they fed Granite. Strider, later on, pretends to give Granite a lesson and lures the young dog into attacking a porcupine. Granite got tricked and a face full of quills. Granite hopes to please Ebony by trying to catch a fox but nearly loses his life. He nearly runs into a trap, but Breeze stops him just in time. He is, again, scorned by the others for his lousiness. However, later on, Climber is killed during a moose hunt, and Granite must try to earn his place in the pack, while dodging Roamer and Strider and other dangers of the Alaskan wilderness. Granite then runs away, overwhelmed by the torments from Roamer and Strider. Granite proves to be no longer a puppy who cannot fill his own stomach. He does fine save for the dark cloud of loneliness that grows bigger each day. He meets another pack of wolves when he intrudes into their territory. They welcome the dog with slashing teeth. Granite returns to Ebony's country, and the black wolf, though angry, lets him rejoin the pack. Meanwhile, Snowdrift attempts to search for her lost pups but is shot by hunters. The rest of the pack finds her, though she is blind and wounded. While Snowdrift recovers, Breeze is almost kind to the dog and teaches him how to hunt salmon. In the fall, Granite kills a marmot, but Roamer tries to take it away. Granite fights the young black wolf and wins, and Roamer dares not to challenge him again. In the end, Granite saves Snowdrift's life. Ebony lets the dog hunt alongside him, making Granite's dream come true. Even Strider is friendly and no longer challenges the dog. Granite, now more than two years old, realizes that he is home. ==Characters==

David Cameron says he doesn't regret EU referendum David Cameron has said he does not regret calling the referendum that led to Brexit but still wished it had gone the other way. In his first major broadcast interview since standing down, Mr Cameron told CNN: "I obviously believe that I was right to hold a referendum. I wanted to fix it inside the European Union. The British public chose that we would fix it from outside the European Union. "I wish my successor well with her work in being what I hope will be a good, and friendly, and close neighbour to the European Union rather than as we were...perhaps we were a slightly unhappy tenant." He added: "I don't think you can belong to these organisations and see their powers grow, and treaty after...

Manchester Victoria station stabbings suspect held under Mental Health Act A man who was arrested after three people were stabbed at Manchester Victoria station has been detained under the Mental Health Act. Police said the 25-year-old suspect has been assessed by specialist medical staff over the New Year's Eve incident, which is being treated as terror related. It happened shortly before 9pm and two knives were later recovered from the scene, with a search also still being carried out at his home in the Cheetham Hill area. Police added there was "nothing to suggest the involvement of other people in this attack, but confirming this remains a main priority for the investigation." Earlier on Tuesday, police said they were keeping an open mind about the motive of the suspect, who has not yet been confirmed to be a British national.
Video: Stabbings a 'terrorist investigation' - chief constable The three victims - a woman and a man in their 50s, and a British Transport Police (BTP) sergeant in his 30s - were taken to a nearby hospital in a "serious" condition but their injuries are not thought to be life-threatening. The woman suffered injuries to her face and stomach and the man had wounds to his stomach. The BTP sergeant was also treated after he was stabbed in the shoulder, but has since been released. Prime Minister Theresa May tweeted on Tuesday: "My thoughts are with those who were injured in the suspected terrorist attack in Manchester last night. I thank the emergency services for their courageous response." Also posting on Twitter, Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn said: "Thinking of those injured in Manchester last night, their families and loved ones. Thanks to our emergency services for their professionalism and bravery in dealing with this suspected terror attack." Great Manchester mayor Andy Burnham also paid tribute the heroism of the police and said the "vile attack" appeared to be an isolated incident. Sam Clack, a BBC producer who works in the city, was on a platform at the station when he witnessed the attack. He said: "I just heard this most blood curdling scream and looked down the platform. What it looked like was a guy in his 60s with a woman of similar age and another guy all dressed in black. "It looked like they were having a fight, but she was screaming in this blood curdling way. I saw police in high-viz come towards him. He came towards me. I looked down and saw he had a kitchen knife with a black handle with a good, 12-inch blade. It was just fear, pure fear." Mr Clack said police officers used a Taser and pepper spray before "six or seven" of them jumped on the man. Ian Hopkins, chief constable of Great Manchester Police, called the incident a "horrific attack on people simply out to enjoy the New Year's Eve celebrations." He said British Transport Police officers had showed "incredible bravery" in tackling and detaining the suspect. :: Anyone with pictures or video of the incident is asked to send it to [email protected]. Anyone with information can call 0161 8563400.

The casino has been buzzing with activity since morning, and the well-heeled boxing fans lucky enough to get a ticket are starting to fill up the stands. Thousands of people without tickets are milling around the entrances to the arena, hoping to glimpse anything interesting around boxing's biggest fight in several years. The early-arriving crowd even included Floyd Mayweather Sr., who sat quietly in the stands to watch a decision victory for Chris Pearson, a middleweight in the Mayweather promotional stable.

Perth developer's bitter serve after sloppy chocolate shop fit-out Even though no complaints about the quality of the work have been lodged, Building and Energy acting executive director Saj Abdoolakhan said the company had put itself and the community at risk. Loading "This is a serious failure on the part of Ferhan Developments, which resulted in an unregistered builder undertaking major works without the involvement or even supervision of a registered builder," he said. "All registered builders must comply with the regulatory responsibilities and be aware that, if their name is on the building permit, they could be held liable for all the work carried out under that permit. "They put themselves and the community at great risk when they relinquish control and offload those responsibilities to others, particularly if they are unregistered." The company, which prides itself on its inexpensive construction model, has previously been involved in development projects such as Ficus Restaurant at Yagan Square and the Maddington Holy Family Church Parish Hall.

In the Battle of Harpers Ferry, Jackson placed artillery on the heights overlooking the town, forcing the surrender of the garrison of more than 12,000 men on September 15. Jackson led most of his soldiers to join the rest of Lee's army, leaving A.P. Hill's division to complete the occupation of the town. McClellan moved out of Washington with his 87,000-man army in a slow pursuit, reaching Frederick on September 13. There, two Union soldiers discovered a mislaid copy of the detailed campaign plans of Lee's army—General Order Number 191—wrapped around three cigars. The order indicated that Lee had divided his army and dispersed portions geographically, thus making each subject to isolation and defeat in detail. McClellan waited 18 hours before deciding to take advantage of this intelligence, a delay that almost squandered his opportunity. That night, the Army of the Potomac moved toward South Mountain where elements of the Army of Northern Virginia waited in defense of the mountain passes. At the Battle of South Mountain on September 14, the Confederate defenders were driven back by the numerically superior Union forces, and McClellan was in a position to destroy Lee's army before it could concentrate. Lee, seeing McClellan's uncharacteristic aggression, and learning through a Confederate sympathizer that his order had been compromised, frantically moved to concentrate his army. He chose not to abandon his invasion and return to Virginia yet, because Jackson had not completed the capture of Harpers Ferry. He also feared the effect on Confederate morale if he gave up his campaign with only the capture of Harpers Ferry to show for it. Instead, he chose to make a stand at Sharpsburg, Maryland. ===Antietam===
On September 16, McClellan confronted Lee near Sharpsburg, defending a line to the west of Antietam Creek. At dawn on September 17, the Battle of Antietam began, with Maj. Gen. Joseph Hooker's corps mounting a powerful assault on Lee's left flank. Attacks and counterattacks swept across the Miller Cornfield and the woods near the Dunker Church. Union assaults against the Sunken Road ("Bloody Lane") eventually pierced the Confederate center, but the Federal advantage was not pressed. In each case, Confederate reinforcements from the right flank prevented a complete Union breakthrough and McClellan refused to release his reserves to complete the breakthrough. In the afternoon, Burnside's corps crossed a stone bridge over Antietam Creek and rolled up the Confederate right. At a crucial moment, A.P. Hill's division arrived from Harpers Ferry and counterattacked, driving back Burnside's men and saving Lee's army from destruction. Although outnumbered two to one, Lee committed his entire force, while McClellan sent in less than three-quarters of his army. This enabled Lee to shift brigades and concentrate on each individual Union assault. At over 23,000 casualties, it remains the bloodiest single day in American history. Lee ordered the battered Army of Northern Virginia to withdraw across the Potomac into the Shenandoah Valley. Despite being tactically inconclusive, the battle of Antietam is considered a strategic victory for the Union. Lee's strategic initiative to invade Maryland was defeated. But more importantly, President Lincoln used this opportunity to announce his Emancipation Proclamation, after which the prospect of European powers intervening in the war on behalf of the Confederacy was significantly diminished. ==Fredericksburg and Chancellorsville (1862–63)==
On November 7, 1862, President Lincoln relieved McClellan of command because of his failure to pursue and defeat Lee's retreating army from Sharpsburg. Ambrose Burnside, despite his indifferent performance as a corps commander at Antietam, was appointed to command the Army of the Potomac. Once again, Lincoln pressured his general to launch an offensive as quickly as possible. Burnside rose to the task and planned to drive directly south toward Richmond. He hoped to outflank Robert E. Lee by quickly crossing the Rappahannock River at Fredericksburg and placing himself in between the Confederate army and their capital. Administrative difficulties prevented the pontoon bridging boats from arriving on time, and his army was forced to wait across the river from Fredericksburg while Lee took that opportunity to fortify a defensive line on the heights behind the city. Rather than giving up or finding another way to advance, Burnside crossed the river and on December 13, launched massive frontal assaults against Marye's Heights on Lee's left flank. His attacks were more successful on Lee's right, briefly breaking through Jackson's line; but due to a misunderstanding continued to pound the fortified heights with waves of attacks, believing that this would enable the troops opposite Jackson to exploit their advantage.

Japan child population falls for 38th year, hits postwar low Japan's child population has declined for the 38th year in a row and is now at a record low, the government said Saturday. The number of children younger than 15 in Japan stood at 15.22 million as of April 1, down 180,000, or 1.2%, from last year, the Statistics Bureau said. It's the lowest since comparable data became available in 1950. The data were released ahead of Children's Day on May 5. Japan's birthrate has remained low amid a lack of support for working women, who continue to face the burden of homemaking and other traditional roles, as well as excessively long working hours and high education costs. With children making up just 12.1% of its total population, Japan ranks lowest among countries with a population exceeding 40 million, followed by South Korea at 12.9% and Italy and Germany at 13.4%, according to the Statistics Bureau figures. As of 2017, Japanese women on average gave birth to 1.43 children during their lifetimes. That compares with nearly 1.8 in the U.S. and Britain. According to the latest government statistics, the number of births in 2018 fell to 921,000, the lowest since Japan began recording such statistics in 1899. Japan's total population fell by 448,000 people, a record decline, to 126 million. Japan's population is forecast to fall below 100 million by 2050, barring a huge influx of immigrants. Japan last month started allowing more foreign workers to ease a labor crunch. Prime Minister Shinzo Abe has said aging and the low birth rate are a national crisis. He's promised labor and other reforms to help alleviate the burden on families that discourage couples from having more children. Longer life spans in Japan have added to rising costs for elderly care and social security. Conservative lawmakers in Abe's government have at times blamed the elderly or childless for long-term demographic trends. Gaffe-prone Finance Minister Taro Aso earlier this year had to apologize for saying childless people are to blame for Japan's rising social security costs and declining population.

Moreover, if you click the thumbnail in Firefox so that the browser displays only the SVG file, then:
if you save the file you get a version without the commas (as uploaded), but
if you select "view page source" you get a version with the commas. This weirdness is probably unconnected to the bug, since it does not occur with the other affected file. Hans Adler
If I'm not mistaken, the text is being displayed at a much bigger font than what's wanted, thus it does not fit in the desired document dimensions. This happens when the font is not chosen or is inappropriate. Try using something like plain Arial. ZooFari
I don't have the time to find out how to do this, but it doesn't seem to be necessary anyway. See below. Thanks for the suggestion! Hans Adler
This works: Modular (the lower image on the right). I have simply reloaded the saved file (without the commas). Please nominate it for deletion from Commons when it's no longer useful. Perhaps uploading a new version of the original file with no change (or a trivial change) will fix the problem. Certes (talk)
OK, I think I am beginning to understand part of what happened. If I select "view page source" with your new file I don't get the commas. While I don't understand how the difference is even possible unless Firefox re-downloads the file when I save it, it indicates that the server is maintaining two versions of the file: The original, uploaded one, and a second version with the silly commas. Now if there are ungrammatical commas in the y coordinate, it makes sense that it is simply set to 0, and that seems to be exactly what happened: The letters have no descenders and appear with baseline y=0, so for some image dimensions they are completely invisible, and for some you can see the lowest line. The sizes and x positions seem to be fine. Thanks! So I will simply re-upload the images. But someone should seek out the server administrator who has run a faulty conversion script on the SVG files, and notify them. Otherwise they might use the same script again. And of course they should run another script to fix the problem. Unfortunately I don't know where to look for server admins. Hans Adler
For the benefit of anyone trying to debug this: This file should still be affected. I fixed the other by re-uploading. Hans Adler
OK, I think the mystery has been solved. It seems that I uploaded the file with the silly commas (I have no idea how that could happen), that Firefox tolerates them, that the server initially tolerated them, and that the server has become a bit more picky in the meantime. Thanks for your help. Hans Adler
== Freeware program for noise ==
I have recently submitted several images to be FP's and in almost every case they were opposed because of noise. Is there a good freeware program that can edit out image noise. I have downloaded GIMP and Inkscape but neither seems to quite do what I need it to do. I was thinking maybe there was an addin for one of these programs that would do the trick. == Wanna help, not sure how. ==
I've got a few images into better shape, but I am not sure how to put them on the pages. How do I replace the images that needed fixing with the fixed versions? Is there an easy way to simply upload it? B10Reaper (talk)
One way, you can upload over the original file by going to the description page on Wikimedia Commons (or simply here at Wikipedia if the file isn't at Commons) and click "Upload a new version". The more convenient way is by uploading the image as a separate file. ZooFari
Once you have the images uploaded, then just edit the page and replace the file name of the one image with the new one. You'll see something like yle="font:bold 14px arial;color:#f27;">ɹəə]]pıɔnı
There any possibility of improving the SVG piecemeal, or is it just hopeless? 76.117.247.55 (talk)
I had a go there. Could only get it down to about 5-6MB. Problem is, the original png was never suitable for vectorising in the first place. Whoever tagged it as evidently didn't understand what would be involved. It looks to be a scan of a painting or drawing, not a digitally created image.

Belconnen United down Woden Weston with free kick hat-trick Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Get fooled a third time and you'll know how Woden Weston goalkeeper Josh Wade felt at Woden Park Enclosed on Saturday. Isaac Clements kicks the ball down field for Belconnen United. Photo: Dion Georgopoulos The Woden shot-stopper watched Belconnen United fire three almost identical free kicks past him in a disastrous 28-minute stretch of the first half. Jason Ugrinic opened the scoring after three minutes when he lined up 25m out on an angle where the United striker had no business going for goal. Photo gallery Capital Football NPL: Woden Weston FC v Belconnen United The jury is still out whether it was an intended shot but the ball flew past everyone and into the bottom corner. Fast-forward five minutes, replay the exact sequence and Urgrinic had his brace as United led 2-0 inside 10 minutes. The visitors controlled the tempo with all the territory and possession from the opening whistle and on the half hour mark Daniel Fabrizio lined up a free kick on 35m from goal. His cross arced over the pack and in an unbelievable carbon copy of the first two goals the ball once again bounced in at the back post. Fabrizio was extremely lucky to stay on the field when he floored Stefan Todoroski with a below the belt strike just before half-time, but the cowardly act was missed by officials. Woden came out firing after the break and installed striker Olaide Yinka-Kehinde who showed lightning speed to chase down pinpoint through ball, before coolly finishing past teenage keeper Finn Jurak on 48 minutes. The home side went close to finding a second and Yinka-Kehinde looked dangerous every time he touched the ball but the United defence wouldn't be breached again. Wade didn't drop his head and made several strong saves in the second half, but Woden coach Tony Olivera conceded the damage had been done. "Believe it or not the last thing we did on Thursday night was set plays," Olivera said. "One thing is giving free kicks in critical areas, that's the first mistake, and the second one is not defending properly and not setting up the wall. "Jason Ugrinic is renowned for his set plays and that was one of the things I mentioned in our pep talk, be wary of giving free kicks and his dynamite left foot. "I think the sun in Josh's eyes had a lot to do with the goals and at half-time he had his head in his hands, so he was disappointed with himself but he'll bounce back and we'll bounce back and that's what football is about." Belconnen boss Dean Ugrinic has watched his son net 16 goals this season but admitted none more bizarre than his latest double. "I've got to thank Cam Reinhart for winning the toss because he put the sun in the eyes of the keeper, but I must admit I've not seen that before," Ugrinic said. "I don't know if they were shots of crosses but at the end of the day they've gone in and they all count. "It was just one of those games where you come out here, get the job done and leave. I'm just glad to be back in the winner's circle and to bag another three points."
Woden Weston 3 (Ugrinic 3' 8' Fabrizio 31') bt Belconnen United 1 (Yinka-Kehinde 48') Monaro Panthers 1 (McCarthy 21') drew Riverina Rhinos 1 (Bailey 25') Sunday 3pm: Tuggeranong United v Canberra FC at Greenway Enclosed; Tigers FC v Gungahlin United at Calwell.

Katy Perry Taylor Swift feud: A full timeline of the popstars' fall-out In a move that shocked pop culture fans everywhere, Taylor Swift and Katy Perry appeared to issue an end to their years-long feud on Wednesday. Perry shared a platter of homemade cookies on a plate that read "PEACE AT LAST" on her Instagram account, tagging Swift in the caption. Swift responded with a string of emoji hearts. If you've been following their history for a while, you'll know that they've had a tumultuous relationship over the past few years. From mad love to bad blood to cookies, here's a full timeline of their relationship below...
In 2012, Taylor Swift took the world by storm when she toured in support of her album Red internationally. However, three of her back-up dancers - Lockhart Brownlie, Scott Myrick and Leah Adler - also happened to be very close to Katy Perry and had toured with her during her California Dreams shows previously. When Perry began preparing for her own 2013 world tour for her album Prism, Perry reached out to see if all three of them would be open to touring with her again and the dates clashed with Swift's. In the end, all three dancers decided to leave Swift's tour before it ended and joined Perry's instead - igniting the bad blood between the singers.
March: Taylor Swift's pointed cake Before the drama became public knowledge, Swift appeared to take aim at both Perry and backup dancer Scott Myrick. In March, Taylor celebrated the start of her Red tour with a red Barbie doll cake and Myrick was quick to draw comparisons with a similar cake that Perry had given him previously. Myrick asked, "Who wore the cake better? @TaylorSwift13 Barbie or @Scott_Myrick Barbie!" It didn't take long before Perry retweeted the comparison picture, adding the comment, "Mothers always watching..." July: More backup dancer drama Swift reportedly unfollows the three backup dancers at the centre of the feud on Twitter. December: Swift and Perry's backup dancer explains what happened The drama eventually exploded when another of the mentioned back-up dancers, Brownlie, opened up about the complex situation to The Examiner. He elaborated on the details of the situation and revealed that the three of them were actually closer to Perry, which factored into their decision to leave the tour. He explained, "I was with Taylor for the first six months. It was a great experience and she's a great person to work with, but then Katy contacted us." "Obviously we were with Katy for 2 1/2 years, she's like family to us, so we were, like, "absolutely,"" Brownlie continued. "We weren't really dancing in Taylor's tour anyway so I had got a little bored and I really wanted to do a promo tour." While he said that all three of them "had so much fun with [Swift]," he revealed that working with her was "completely different." He explained that she was "very untouchable" and "a lot more protected than Katy." Brownlie said, "Katy's 28 now and can do her own thing. Her team are so lovely, so we have such a good connection. And this time around she is a lot more in control." During this time, Perry began dating Swift's ex, John Mayer (the reported inspiration for her Swift's son Dear John). Swift's comments to Rolling Stone in 2014 clarified that a feud with an unnamed singer "wasn't even about a guy."
September: Taylor Swift's Rolling Stone cover interview Ahead of the release of her song "Bad Blood," Swift covers Rolling Stone and opened up about the inspiration behind the song. Swift was famous for dropping hints that her songs were written about past romantic flames, but she clarified that "Bad Blood" was actually about "another female artist who tried to sabotage an entire arena tour." Swift said of the anonymous artist, "She did something so horrible. I was like, 'Oh, we're just straight-up enemies.' And it wasn't even about a guy! It had to do with business." She continued, "She basically tried to sabotage an entire arena tour. She tried to hire a bunch of people out from under me. And I'm surprisingly non-confrontational - you would not believe how much I hate conflict. So now I have to avoid her. It's awkward, and I don't like it." Despite the fact that Swift and Perry previously sent one another gushy tweets and were pictured looking friendly at events, Swift added, "For years, I was never sure if we were friends or not. She would come up to me at awards shows and say something and walk away, and I would think, 'Are we friends, or did she just give me the harshest insult of my life?'" September: Katy Perry responds

== WP 1.0 bot announcement ==
This message is being sent to each WikiProject that participates in the WP 1.0 assessment system. On Saturday, January 23, 2010, the WP 1.0 bot will be upgraded. Your project does not need to take any action, but the appearance of your project's summary table will change. The upgrade will make many new, optional features available to all WikiProjects. Additional information is available at the WP 1.0 project homepage. — Carl (CBM · talk)
== heads up: road topics! ==
Considering the outcome of this discussion and this AFD, our artificial topics on county roads may soon come to an end. Nergaal (talk)
== Topic moves between FT and GT in AHs ==
At FTQ, I inquired why the AHs have not been updated for Millennium Park now that it has transitioned from GT to FT. I was informed that it is currently a matter of policy only to update the templates at the time of the intial discussion. Subsequent moves between the approved topic levels are not documented. I believe that this is faulty record keeping. I was told that the reasons are that 1) it cuts down on work and 2) since no new discussion occurs it is unnecessary. My belief is that any important stages of an article have no formal discussions to link to, but should be included in the templates. For example, both PROD (See Zak Kustok for example) or TFA (Richard Cordray) are part of a well-formed and well-documented AH. I think a bot could manage the updates and enable people to figure out what is going on with article histories. I would like to see all the templates in the Millennium Park topic and other transitioned topics be updated. I appreciate opinions on the matter. If a bot could do it automatically then I think it would probably be a good idea to add a line in the article history for the automatic promotions and demotions between good and featured topics. Rreagan007 (talk)
I actually agree that it is more informative to record this. I suppose also when GT was first created there were worries that topics would move between the two all the time, but this has in fact been very rare. I'm inclined to say we should do it even IF a bot isn't created - rst20xx (talk)
It would be great if something happened on the talk page to trigger AALERTS. It would be nice for CHICAGO to see something at CHIAA when something like this promotion occurs. I strongly recommend implementing this after the September upgrade of rules. I sincerely do not see any major upgrade after that that does not involve an actual nomination, while having 20 or so pages with date1 GT, date2 FT, Sept1 down to GT again beause of change of rules would look pretty bad. Nergaal (talk)
:It wouldn't look any worse than all the pages that get delisted in GA Sweeps or something. The point is to document the history of the article whether it be good or bad. I think sooner is better than later. (outdent) I would have thought we'd backdate it anyway, to get the full history down? Anyway, it strikes me as useful to write down the topics that have already moved from one to the other. When I did that graph of number of topics over time I had to produce such a list, so it only needed updating for mid-July 2009 to present:
September 2008: The Simpsons season 8 from FT to GT (GTs created, %age goes up to 25% from 20%)
September 2008: The Simpsons season 9 from FT to GT (GTs created, %age goes up to 25% from 20%)
October 2008: StarCraft titles from GT to FT (article promotion)
January 2009: Adriatic campaign of 1807–1814 from GT to FT (new FL added)
March 2009: Gwen Stefani albums from FT to GT (FL loses its star)
April 2009: Star Wars episodes from FT to GT (%age goes up to 33% from 25%)
April 2009: Wilco albums from FT to GT (%age goes up to 33% from 25%)
April 2009: The Legend of Zelda titles from FT to GT (%age goes up to 33% from 25%)
(July 2009: Galilean moons FT merged into Jupiter FT.

== IBM 360? ==
Does the IBM 360, with its IBM Solid Logic Technology, count as a transistor computer? Bubba73 You talkin' to me? Is a solid logic module a discrete transistor? No? IBM's Solid Logic Technology (SLT) of the System/360 used discrete transistors and at least intially no integrated circuits so I think it belongs in this section. Many references refer to the third generation of computers as using ICs and it seems to me they are refering to monolithic ICs. I don't think anyone would consider SLT a hybrid IC nor the early s/360 an integrated circuit based computer. Perhaps the answer is to remove the term "hybrid" from the lede and footnote the IBM entry. Tom94022 (talk)
See for example, this photo Tom94022 (talk)
:What is a hybrid IC, then? And how is it different from what IBM did with SLT? Sure, not "monolithic" but there were integrated circuits long before "monolithic" ICs came along, that's why they have their own special name. You could pull a fistful of transistors out of any of the discrete transistor computers and turn them into, oh, say, an AM radio or an audio the SLT modules were only usable as logic gates. ::"What is a hybrid IC, then?" A PC board, possibly with epoxy poured on it? ::What I see as significant about monolithic ICs is that the transistors are connected as part of the semiconductor fabrication process, rather than as part of the circuit-board wiring or PCB fabrication process. Putting a bunch of individually-fabbed transistors on a board and calling it a "hybrid IC" doesn't strike me as much different from putting a bunch of individually-fabricated transistors on a board and calling it a "circuit board"; fabricating a single die with multiple transistors on it does strike me as significantly different. Is there some reason to consider pre-monolithic-IC technologies such as SLT significantly different from, for example, discrete transistors in cans? Guy Harris (talk)
Yep. That's why IBM did it. And that's why they are different from discrete transistors. Each hybrid had a designated function - a bag of transistors could be made into anything. None of the transistors in a transistorized computer are in a bag, they are on boards performing specific functions just like an SLT module and can no more be made into a radio than the discrete transistors in an SLT module. SLT is just a packaging advance and really doesn't make the early s360's into integrated circuit computers. Tom94022 (talk)
Yes - what makes the choice about how to use individual transistors (and diodes and resistors and capacitors and...) - put them all on the circuit board, or put small collections of them on circuit boards and then put those collections on other circuit boards - at the same level of significance as putting the components onto a single die? Guy Harris (talk)
: I don't know enough about the hardware to say. But when I took Intro to CS a long time ago, we covered the history of computers. IIRC, the IBM 360 was an example of a second-generation (transistor) computer and the 370 was an example of a third-generation computer. Bubba73 You talkin' to me? :: Correction - I got my old textbook and it lists the IBM 360 as a third-generation computer. Bubba73 You talkin' to me? : Within the last two weeks I bought the card pictured. It was described as an IBM SLT card from the 1960s.

Celta Vigo 0-1 Manchester United Marcus Rashford's splendid free-kick secured Manchester United a hard-fought win at Celta Vigo to edge Jose Mourinho's men closer to the Europa League final. England's last European representatives have travelled far and wide in their bid to win the only major continental trophy to have eluded them in their success-laden history. Europa League glory also offers a route back to the Champions League - an increasingly important option given their Premier League struggles - and Mourinho's men are in the driving seat of this semi-final after Rashford's fine free-kick secured a 1-0 first-leg win at Celta. Sportsmail's Joe Bernstein rated the players on Thursday night. Share this article Share 9.4k shares Manchester United (4-1-4-1) Sergio Romero 6 Given the nod over David de Gea and though his kicking was a bit dodgy, he commanded his penalty area as Mourinho likes. One nice tip over from Sisto's shot. Antonio Valencia 7 The 31-year-old has arguably been United's most consistent player this season and was a steady influence on a potentially awkward night Eric Bailly 6 Not his usual commanding self after being rushed back from Sunday's injury. Lost the run of Wass and lucky the Celta player headed wide Daley Blind 7.5 Read the game brilliantly and competed manfully against the physical bulk of John Guidetti.

They were among many parents in Lebanon who face a terrible dilemma - send their children to the streets to work or have nothing to feed them. "The father was shocked, and he started to cry," Ms. Omari said. "The caregivers know there is a risk to their children when they are on the street." The International Rescue Committee provided the family with mental health support and cash assistance for the surgery to ensure the child did not have to go back to the street. He now attends school and has regular meetings with a therapist. Ms. Omari said that she has seen progress in hundreds of children and a few truly happy endings, but resources are limited, and in most cases, the goals are just teaching basic literacy and keeping the child safe. "Not everything is successes, unfortunately," she said. "Because this is life."

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp insists everything is fine between him and Philippe Coutinho Jurgen Klopp has insisted that he will "100 per cent" welcome Philippe Coutinho back into the fold at Liverpool despite the Brazilian's agitation to leave Anfield. Following a strongly-worded club statement on the eve of the Premier League season insisting that Coutinho would not be sold, the 25-year-old attempt to force through a move to Barcelona by handing in a transfer request. Liverpool rejected the request, along with three offers for the player from Catalunya that peaked at £114m inclusive of add-ons, and have maintained a consistent stance that Coutinho would not be allowed to leave this summer. Hoffenheim vs Liverpool player ratings Hoffenheim vs Liverpool player ratings 1/11 Simon Mignolet - 7 out of 10 Liverpool have a lot to thank Mignolet for after his performance against Hoffenheim. He made a string of good stops in the first half including a penalty save. Liverpool FC via Getty Images 2/11 Trent Alexander-Arnold - 8 Alexander-Arnold scored a superb free kick to put Liverpool into the lead in the first half and rarely put a foot wrong when defending at the back. Nathaniel Clyne's route back to the first team might not be not be as easy as first thought. Bongarts/Getty Images 3/11 Alberto Moreno - 4 The left back was pressing high up the pitch when Hoffenheim attacked the void left by Moreno and won a penalty from Lovren. The Spaniard was continuously caught out of position and needs to defend better if he is to continue to start games. Bongarts/Getty Images 4/11 Joel Matip - 5 Matip made a crucial interception in the first half when Gnabry was waiting to score. Liverpool were caught on a couple of occasions from set plays, Matip has to be more vocal at the back. Liverpool FC via Getty Images 5/11 Dejan Lovren - 4 Lovern was left exposed in the first half and brought down Serge Gnabry in the box when the winger took it past him. He was unlucky not to score with a header from a corner which went narrowly past the post. The centre-back was played Uth onside when he scored his goal to give Hoffenheim a glimmer of hope for the second leg. Liverpool FC via Getty Images 6/11 Georginio Wijnaldum - 6 Wijnaldum also had a quiet game but linked up well with the attacking players in front of him. AFP/Getty Images 7/11 Emre Can - 6 The German was very strong in the midfield and rarely put a foot wrong. Can was effective when playing a deeper role when Milner came on and was decisive with his passing in the final third. Bongarts/Getty Images 8/11 Jordan Henderson - 5 The captain came off after a quiet 62 minutes. Henderson was tidy with his passing but produced nothing noteworthy. Liverpool FC via Getty Images 9/11 Mohamed Salah - 6 Liverpool's summer signing looked threatening when he got forward but was unable to contribute to any goals. Liverpool FC via Getty Images 10/11 Sadio Mane - 6 As usual, Mane was bright on the break for Liverpool. His quick turn and pace won the free kick which Alexander-Arnold scored to but the Reds ahead. Liverpool FC via Getty Images 11/11 Roberto Firmino - 5 It was an unusually quiet evening for Roberto Firmino against his former club. He came off late in the second half after failing to add to his goal from the weekend. Liverpool FC via Getty Images Klopp now faces the task of integrating the Brazilian back into his squad but, speaking ahead of Liverpool's crucial Champions League play-off second leg against Hoffenheim, he said his own relationship with Coutinho has not been affected. "Of course everything is OK between me and him. Absolutely. 100 per cent," Klopp insisted. Coutinho was not present at Liverpool's training session on Tuesday and has not appeared for the club yet this season while recovering from a back injury. Klopp revealed that the playmaker's return has since been delayed further by an illness and suggested that even if he were available to face Hoffenheim, he would require more hours on training pitch. "He can't start tomorrow because on top of that he's now ill," Klopp said. "It will take time because he has not trained for a long time. I've no idea at this moment [when he will return], we would have to check when he is back." Reuse content

Italian terror cell plotting attacks in UK, police fear Police claim the men had a long list of potential targets, including airports, ports, shopping centres and hotels. Investigators also found recordings of prayers and images of weapons and mutilated U.S. soldiers. The two arrested suspects were also allegedly planning attacks on targets in France and Belgium. The investigation into the alleged plot took began in December last year. One of the arrested men had been given refugee status after arriving in Italy and was reportedly planning to settle in Calais. The two men were described as "human bombs" by a centre-Right politician, Roberto Calderoli of the Northern League. "We now have human bombs here at home, bombs that are in danger of exploding in our homes and in our piazzas," he said in reaction to the arrests. He blamed the centre-Left government of Matteo Renzi for "allowing in hundreds of thousands of illegal immigrants without the slightest controls, without knowing who they are, where they come from, how they paid for their journeys. "Now we find that we have terrorists at home, welcomed into our migrant reception centres." He called for migrants and refugees to be subjected to strict security controls on board the navy and coast guard ships that rescue them in the Mediterranean, before they are allowed onto Italian soil.

Mother of two shares selfie of her face caked with blood A mother of two has uploaded a selfie online which shows her face covered in blood after she was violently attacked by her ex-boyfriend. Louise Bacon, 45, was left scarred for life after she was punched square in the face by her ex-partner John Brown. Brown, 35, was convicted of assault after he beat in her home and fled when neighbours phoned police when she screamed in Mansfield, Nottinghamshire. However, he only received a four week jail term, suspended for 18 months following a hearing at Mansfield Magistrates' Court, but was given with a restraining order. She has now posted the shocking photograph online to make a stand against domestic abuse. Miss Bacon admitted the abuse would tend to be when Brown was hungover or on the come down following drink and drug binges. Speaking about the horrendous beating, she said: 'Next thing I knew he pushed me back onto the stairs and had one hand on my chest. 'Then he drew his hand back and punched me right in the face - there was blood pouring down.' She added that she did not wish to see her vile partner jailed and instead 'get the help he needed'. Miss Bacon had initially decided not to press charges after being assaulted by him - but said IT consultant Brown was not going to get away with it for a second time. Just months before she was left covered in blood, Brown had slapped her across the face during an argument 'over nothing'. She added: 'But then when I was left covered in blood the second time I just felt like, well he's ruining my life, so I think I should press charges.' Miss Bacon said the assaults began after 'pushing and shoving ended with fists into my face'. She said the abuse started with just nasty comments, but it developed into a violent relationship after she became infatuated by him. Miss Bacon, who owns a hairdressing salon, is now encouraging other women, and also men, to stand up to report incidents of domestic abuse. She said: 'The signs were always there from the beginning - he was abusive, swearing at me, saying nasty things. 'I was so in love with him at one point and there was that fear of being alone bringing up a child, but it sometimes it's better to be alone. 'I just want to tell other women they shouldn't be scared to leave - there is support there for them.' Miss Bacon has been left with a scar over her left eye from the attack, which she said she had initially been embarrassed about. She said: 'Now I tell people what happened - I want to let other women know it's not their fault, they aren't to blame.' 'Women's Aid were in touch straight away and I was given support from the court too.' She even faced her attacker in court despite being offered a screen to stand behind so Brown could not see her as she gave evidence. She said: 'It was my way of telling him it was over - it was the hardest day of my life but I'm glad I did it.' In court Brown was also ordered to pay £1.000 in compensation, a victim surcharge of £115 and costs of £620.

Grenfell community's relationship with council is "going backwards," says watchdog The relationship between the council and the community affected by the Grenfell Tower fire is "going backwards" in some respects, according to a watchdog. The blaze in June 2017 at the 24-storey block of flats in North Kensington caused the deaths of 72 people. The Independent Grenfell Recovery Taskforce was set up in the aftermath to examine Kensington and Chelsea's efforts to rebuild the community. In its most recent report it has told housing minister James Brokenshire that the council's relationship with residents living in the shadow of the tower is "inconsistent and too frequently weak." The watchdog said the borough had rightly focused on the bereaved and survivors but added: "The relationship with the wider community in North Kensington has not made sufficient progress. In some respects, it is going backwards." The authors said senior people had attended meetings, made promises but then were "never seen by the community again." The letter said K&C must do more to address the "hostility and mistrust" in communities and repair the damage their "inconsistency" had produced. Grenfell survivors support centre faces axe as council launches review It comes at a time when some survivors and members of community have criticised the proposed shutdown of the Grenfell Recovery Scrutiny Committee, which monitors its own recovery efforts, such as rehousing survivors and services for the bereaved. They fear they will be "forgotten" by the council which has said scrutiny would be carried out by other committees on the council. It is the fourth report by the watchdog, headed by Baroness Jane Scott, into the borough which came under fierce criticism after the blaze. The authors recognise there has been "significant change" at the council, but say there are "strategic weaknesses" that concern them. The report described K&C as a "broken organisation" in 2017 which felt "under siege" following the fire. However, the report says K&C has repaired itself, brought in a culture of change and functions well in some areas. A new council leader, Elizabeth Campbell, was brought in after the fire and 25 new councillors were elected last year who increased the diversity of what was a "very homogenous council." The institution is now "more open and responsive to people's needs" whereas it was previously seen as "distant" and "traditional," according to the letter. But the report notes: "We have seen in public meetings unedifying behaviour from councillors from all sides: this gives cause for concern." Tory leader Ms Campbell said: "We understand that there is a lot more still to do. We are committed and we will work hard to make sure we continue to change, continue to provide good services, and improve our engagement with residents." Mr Brokenshire said the taskforce had set the bar high for the borough's recovery and he was assured the council had started action to meet many of the recommendations.

Sun Racing ambassador Megan Nicholls is back and looks ahead to a cracking day of racing at Ascot and Ffos Las Champions Day is here! It's a fabulous meeting and this year's edition looks as exciting as ever. It's a big weekend for Dad, too, and I've got a trio of rides at Wolverhampton - it's all happening!
Credit: Stewart Williams - The Sun Ascot's day in the sun could well be Magical - but I think the Champion Stakes is more likely to go to Coronet. The big race of the day isn't the most competitive renewal and it gives John Gosden's mare the chance to win another Group 1. She was second to Magical in last year's Fillies and Mares but Aidan O'Brien's runner has had a much longer season and could be a little vulnerable. Addeybb loves the mud so switching to the National Hunt track probably won't suit him quite as well, for all that he has bags of class. Weekend rides I've got three rides at Wolves this evening, headed by King Oswald in the opener. He ran a decent race last time when returning from a break and I'd give him a chance of running into a place. Never A Word has a big shout in the 6.15. He's been running well over hurdles recently and the switch back to the Flat could see him in an even better light. He ran well at Exeter last time and should have a right chance. Cosmelli is a very good horse on his day, having previously won the Northumberland Vase, and has a chance in the 7.45 He was fifth in the Northumberland Plate on his penultimate start and if running to that level could go close. He likes the all-weather and hopefully can run better than he did last time. I'm looking forward to it. The QEII has a French twist to it this year, with The Revenant holding major claims after his stunning performance on Arc day. He bolted up then and it will be interesting to see how he gets on against some of our best prospects. Benbatl hasn't got his ground but be sluiced up in the Joel Stakes last time and if performing to a similar level has a chance too. He beat King Of Comedy last time but that one goes well in the ground and likes Ascot so could run a good race. They'll have to go some to beat the French horse, though. In the Sprint, I'm a huge fan of Hello Youmzain and hope he can follow up his Sprint Cup victory. He handled soft ground very well at Haydock, where he showed much improved form to win at Group 1 level. I think a stiff 6f is right up his street and he'll like conditions more than Advertise. Kevin Ryan's horses are at the top of their game this year and he's the one to catch.
Stradivarius will attempt to win the Long Distance Cup for the second time on the bounceCredit: PA:Press Association Stradivarius will appreciate the better ground of the jumps course and should land the Long Distance Cup. He's been the outstanding stayer for the last two seasons and I think he can cap off another top class year. John Gosden's other runner, Royal Line, is interesting now he steps up in trip. He likes juice in the ground and I think he'll stay. The Fillies and Mares is again all about John Gosden. He fields both Star Catcher and Anapurna and the pair have obvious claims.
Oaks winner Anapurna is back for moreCredit: Getty Images - Getty Anapurna's victory last time was a very strong performance and the only time she's been beaten was when she clearly wasn't quite right at Longchamp. She's an Oaks winner and has a very good chance, as does Star Catcher who's the chosen mount of Frankie Dettori. That filly has run up a really good run of form and I find it hard to split the two. I also wouldn't rule out Tarnawa, who's been running really well of late. She's had a great season and could go close.
Credit: Stewart Williams - The Sun In the finale, Lord North is all set for another big run after winning the Cambridgeshire very easily. He's won on soft ground in the past and I reckon he must have a chance of going close at the least. Kynren finally got his head in front last time, which was fully deserved and he'll handle the mile no problem. He likes soft ground and should be bang there once again. It'll be a proper test and one outsider to consider is Coolagh Forest.

In case you missed the memo about Joe Dough's specialty, there are doughnut-shaped seats inside and plush doughnuts lining the walls. And McGuirt is often wearing doughnut-patterned clothing when behind the counter. But Joe Dough also riffs on other dough products - and happens to sell the "it" food of the moment: cookie dough. In New York, one outlet - Dō - attracted two-hour-long lines when it opened. The website, Eater, declared recently that, "2017 is set to be the breakout year for edible cookie dough." The dough is egg-free and the flour pasteurised, and the flavours evoke the best things you'd want to line a biscuit tray with: Oreo cookies and cream, a peanut butter version resembling Reese's Pieces and even a s'mores edition. Most people are drawn to Joe Dough's front counter - with its rainbow rows of doughnuts and tubs of confectionery-topped cookie dough - but it's worth exploring the rest of the store's dough-related menu. The dining area is tiny - there are only a handful of tables, surrounded by red bar stools or doughnut-themed seating - but McGuirt's American dishes are a good showcase of his memories and past CV. The burgers have the novelty of being square-shaped - just like the ones the chef ate from fast-food chains Wendy's and White Castle while growing up - but they trade on classic, pared-back flavours: each one is neatly packed with an angular stack of tomato, raw onion, American cheddar and lightly seasoned beef patty. (They're experimenting with a vegetarian version, too.) The fried chicken also trades on comfort and simplicity: served with home-style buttermilk biscuits and gravy, the chicken is cooked in leftover doughnut oil, which gives it a crisp lightness and subtle flavour boost. After something spicier? Try the chuck steak tamales cooked in a tomato-cumin broth. Most dine-in visitors seem unaware of the savoury dishes, though - they're more preoccupied with the staff prepping doughnuts in the open kitchen, the massive replica of The Donut Chef book cover on the wall or their own plates of doughnuts. Perhaps it's because these hot dishes play a support role to the headlining desserts. Of course, Joe Dough is a multitasking pun - and Joe refers to coffee ("cup of Joe"). In keeping with the theme, McGuirt serves American filter coffee. And while Australia has long held bragging rights on how great our espresso game is, the US has often been dismissed for its apparently bad coffee. But Joe Dough's version is good. And in demand. "We sell about four to one, American coffee to espresso," McGuirt says. "You get a bottomless cup, so you get free refills." Unlike the dodgy kind that has been sitting around for hours, Joe Dough's is freshly made. And perfect for doughnuts. "There's nothing better than the aroma of the coffee when they pour it in the cup in front of you," McGuirt says. "That's just a unique experience." More to see in Darlinghurst (and surrounds): 243 Victoria Street, Darlinghurst Here's a Gelato Messina experience that doesn't involve lining up. Better still, it's based around a seven-course dessert degustation. The room serves only eight people at a time, so book ahead to try one of the most fun experiences in Sydney. Past highlights? A chocolate tree in salted coconut gelato and an "egg" you crack with a mini hammer - spilling forth sake jelly, aged persimmon and goat yoghurt gelato. Corner of Forbes and Burton streets, Darlinghurst You don't need to be a student to drop in for a life drawing class, stock up on brushes at the supplies store or catch an exhibition at the school's gallery (this year's Archibald Prize winner, Mitch Cairns, features in the current show). Or tour Darlinghurst Gaol, which is apparently haunted by some of the 76 prisoners who were executed at the site. 112 Darlinghurst Road, Darlinghurst In an era of Netflix and chill, this Sydney institution keeps on keeping on. For years, Sydneysiders have dropped in for a vegetarian Indian buffet followed by a movie session - usually while assuming a comfy position on one of the massive floor cushions in the screening room. Now on show: car-chase caper Baby Driver and Charlize Theron's (literal) knockout performance in Atomic Blonde. 10 Nimrod Street, Kings Cross

What are your sources for these changes, such as that Anthony Quayle died specifically in Chelsea? You need to cite them. Yngvadottir (talk)
Hi,
He died at his home in Chelsea, London. Here is a newspaper which indicates that he died there. Find my past, the website, also says that he died in Chelsea. I do not make changes unless they are accurate! I'd appreciate you putting my changes back. I put that one back; thank you for finding that source! However, here's the thing; you need to add the reference when you change things like that. It's not enough to be aware of it yourself. Also, I don't believe Find My Past is a reliable source; you might want to ask about it at the Reliable Sources noticeboard. Yngvadottir (talk)

USS Hopestill (SP-191) was a United States Navy patrol vessel in commission from 1917 to 1919. Hopestill was built as a civilian motorboat or motor yacht of the same name in 1916 by Robert Jacobs at City Island in the Bronx, New York. The U.S. Navy acquired her from her owner, Irving E. Raymond of New York City, in May 1917 for World War I service as a patrol vessel. She was commissioned as USS Hopestill (SP-191) at the New York Navy Yard at Brooklyn, New York, on 26 July 1917 with Ensign A. C. Hanseom, USNRF, in command. Hopestill was assigned to the 3rd Naval District and served as a [patrol vessel in

Jean-Paul Gaultier (; born 24 April 1952) is a French writer, and prêt-à-porter fashion designer who, in 1982, founded his eponymous fashion label. From 2003 to 2010 he also served as the creative director at French luxury house Hermès for womenswear. He co-presented the television series Eurotrash with Antoine de Caunes. == Life and career ==
Gaultier grew up in a suburb of Paris. His mother was a clerk and his father an accountant. It was his maternal grandmother, Marie Garage, who introduced him to the world of fashion. He never received formal training as a designer. Instead, he started sending sketches to famous couture stylists at an early age. Pierre Cardin was impressed by his talent and hired him as an assistant in 1970. Afterwards he worked with Jacques Esterel in 1971 and Jean Patou later that year, then returning to manage the Pierre Cardin boutique in Manila for a year in 1974. His first individual collection was released in 1976, and his characteristic irreverent style dating from 1981 has led to his being known as the enfant terrible of French fashion. Many of Gaultier's subsequent collections have been based on street wear, focusing on popular culture, whereas others, particularly his collections, are very formal, yet at the same time unusual and playful. Although most people found his designs decadent at the time, fashion editors, notably Melka Tréanton of Elle, Claude Brouet and Catherine Lardeur of French Marie Claire, were impressed by his creativity and mastery of tailoring, and later launched his career. In 1985, he introduced man-skirts and promoted their use, especially kilts, in men's wardrobe, and the release of designer collections. Gaultier has also worked in close collaboration with Wolford Hosiery. Gaultier caused shock by using unconventional models for his exhibitions, like older men and full-figured women, pierced and heavily tattooed models, and by playing with traditional gender roles in the shows. This earned him both criticism and enormous popularity. At the end of the 1980s, Gaultier suffered some personal losses, and in 1990 his boyfriend and business partner, Francis Menuge, died of AIDS-related causes. In 1988 Gaultier released a dance single titled "How To Do That" on Fontana Records, from which came one of the first ever "single title" remix albums, Aow Tou Dou Zat, on Mercury Records. The album includes mixes by Norman Cook, J. J. Jeczalik, George Shilling, Mark Saunders, Latin Rascals, David Dorrell, Tim Atkins, Carl Atkins, and Kurtis Mantronik. It was co-written and produced by Tony Mansfield, and video directed by Jean-Baptiste Mondino. The album also featured a collaboration with accordion player Yvette Horner. Starting in 1993, he co-hosted the Channel 4 programme Eurotrash with Antoine de Caunes. Gaultier hosted the show until 1997. Gaultier was the creative director of Hermès from 2003 to 2010, where he succeeded Martin Margiela. He is also well known for sponsoring the 2003–04 exhibit in the Costume Institute of New York's Metropolitan Museum of Art entitled "Braveheart: Men in Skirts," which showed designs by Dries van Noten, Vivienne Westwood, and Rudi Gernreich in addition to Gaultier's in order to examine "designers and individuals who have appropriated the skirt as a means of injecting novelty into male fashion, as a means of transgressing moral and social codes, and as a means of redefining an ideal masculinity." He also designed some furniture for the French furniture brand Roche Bobois. That exhibit is on tour with venues at the Swedish Centre for Architecture and Design (Arkitektur- och designcentrum, ArkDes) in Stockholm, the Brooklyn Museum in New York City, the Barbican Centre in London, the National Gallery of Victoria in Melbourne, and the Grand Palais in Paris. The exhibition in Paris, which took place from April to August 2015, was the subject of a documentary called Jean Paul Gaultier at the Grand Palais aired exclusively on Eurochannel. The "granny grey" hair colour trend is attributed to Gaultier, whose autumn/winter 2011 show featured models in grey beehives. In the spring of 2015, his catwalk show at Paris Fashion Week featured silver-haired models again, as did the shows of other fashion designers, Chanel and Gareth Pugh. The trend soon took off among celebrities and the general public. In 2012, he was named as a member of the Jury for the Main Competition at the 2012 Cannes Film Festival.

Top judge worried forensic evidence putting innocent people behind bars "There have been a string of wrongful convictions across the world," Justice Maxwell said. " The benefit of better DNA testing has shown that very many people convicted on the basis of 'crook science', for example, bite mark analysis, were innocent. "This seems to me to be a matter of profound concern." The judge's comments come after The Age revealed last month grave concerns that the legal system and forensic scientists were ignoring systemic problems with forensic evidence. Daniel Gurvich, QC, chair of the Criminal Bar Association of Victoria, said the Victorian government should now establish an inquiry into the accuracy of forensic science, calling it "a matter of great concern in the administration of justice." "We do agree with the president's fears that unreliable forensic evidence is being admitted into evidence in trials," he said. "We think unreliable forensic evidence should not get to the jury in the first place. And the danger of juries being misled, or deferring to an expert opinion, is significant. "We consider that urgent legislative change is required." The two critical American reports, published in 2009 and 2016, led to major changes to the US and British legal systems. Not so in Australia. "When I learnt about those reports... I was shocked," Justice Maxwell said. "With the exception of DNA, no other area of forensic science has been shown to be able reliably to connect a particular sample with a particular crime scene or perpetrator. "I was asking myself, "Why are we not having appeals based on questions of admissibility of forensic evidence?" Justice Maxwell said the rise of television shows such as CSI had given juries the idea that forensic evidence was perfect. Credit: "If, as these US reports show, almost none of it is properly validated, then there must be widespread questions of reliability of the science being relied on. "This seems to me to be so important to the integrity of the criminal justice system. I would have thought it was essential for us to take stock of the state of forensic science in Australia." A 2016 High Court ruling has meant judges cannot stop evidence from being shown to the jury over concerns of reliability. Justice Maxwell said the rise of shows such as CSI and NCIS had given juries the idea that forensic evidence was perfect and criminals could be identified with 100 per cent accuracy. That meant when CSI-style evidence was presented, jurors were more likely to believe it - even if the science behind it was flawed. "[It is a] powerful form of evidence, which can easily be overvalued because it appears to prove more than it can reliably prove," Justice Maxwell said. The Uniform Evidence Act 1995 needed to be urgently amended to require judges to consider the reliability of expert evidence before allowing it to be presented to the jury, he said. In 1995, David Eastman was convicted by a jury of the murder of Colin Winchester. A key plank of the circumstantial case against Mr Eastman was forensic evidence that gunshot residue found in his car matched that found at the crime scene. A 2014 inquiry into the case concluded the forensic evidence "lacked a proper scientific foundation," and recommended Mr Eastman's conviction be quashed. By that time he had spent 19 years in jail. In 1985, three forensic dentists testified at the trial of Raymond Carroll, all claiming a bite mark found on the leg of a murdered infant matched Mr Carroll's teeth. He was convicted. Bite mark evidence has now been thoroughly discredited, with tests showing forensic dentists are often unable to tell if a bite mark was even caused by a human - let alone identify a suspect. Mr Carroll's conviction was later quashed. A spokesman for the Victorian Attorney-General said laws and processes were in place to govern the reliability of forensic science in the state's courts. "The Victorian government will continue to monitor the effectiveness of the existing measures and review any opportunities for improvement," the spokesman said. Dr Linzi Wilson-Wilde, director of the National Institute of Forensic Science, rejected Justice Maxwell's criticisms. Loading "The United States PCAST report [the critical 2016 report from the President's Council of Advisers on Science and Technology] is three years old and considerable work has been, and continues to be, undertaken to address findings contained in the report. "The US PCAST findings have been raised in criminal trials in Australia and no issues were identified.

== Celtic literature ==
On the page headed "Celts", in the 3rd paragraph it says something to the effect that Celtic literary tradition begins with Old Irish texts in the 8th century. This is not true. I have in front of me a copy of the Oxford Book of Welsh Verse, showing several Welsh poems dating from the 6th century. Since Welsh is a Celtic language, the sentence should read something like: "Recorded Celtic literature begins with 6th- Century Welsh poets such as Aneirin and Taliesin, and Old Irish texts "......etc. Hoffoholi (talk)
Well, this is a tricky subject. While it is certainly possible that some Welsh poetry was originally composed in the 6th century, we don't have any secure proof of this, as the extant poems are only found in much later manuscripts and have mostly been updated to later orthographies by scribes of the Middle Welsh period (c. 12th through 14th century AD). I don't know where that 8th century date comes from in regards to Old Irish - the earliest recorded Irish poetry dates to the 6th century AD. Cagwinn (talk)
Not exactly, per Early Irish literature and my recollection of books - again the manuscripts are later (9th century on) than the works are thought to be (c. 600 on). Many also think that the saga cycles have elements deriving from considerably earlier than the 6th century, though the manuscripts are much later. But the section clearly needs sorting. Johnbod (talk)
== The first two paragraphs of this article should be rewritten ==
The first two papragraphs of this article make some sweeping claims that are not supported by much evidence nor by some of the references. For example, John Koch (given as reference ) does not say that the Celts 'were an ethnolinguistic group of tribal societies in Iron Age and Medieval Europe who spoke Celtic languages and had a similar culture,'. Also Nora Chadwick (given as reference 2) does not say 'The earliest archaeological culture that may justifiably be considered Proto-Celtic is the Late Bronze Age Urnfield culture of Central Europe, which flourished from around 1200 BC.' As for the claim 'Their fully Celtic descendants in central Europe were the people of the Iron Age Hallstatt culture (c. 800–450 BC) named for the rich grave finds in Hallstatt, Austria.' Reference 3 is for a work by Barry Cunliffe but as I understand it, he no longer supports the 'Celtic Halstatt' thesis. The article follows on with 'By the later La Tène period (c. 450 BC up to the Roman conquest), this Celtic culture had expanded by diffusion or migration to the British Isles (Insular Celts), France and The Low Countries (Gauls), Bohemia, Poland and much of Central Europe' In the context of this article, this 'expansion' started in the Halstatt region. However there is no evidence that Celtic Languages came from this region or were even commonly spoken there.195.194.15.1 (talk)
I'll pick up on one of your points above because I have a copy of Nora Kershaw Chadwick's 'The Celts' 1970. On page 28, it says: "With the emergence of the Urnfield culture of Central Europe, there appear a people whom some scholars regard as being 'proto-Celtic', in that they may have spoken, as is suggested by the evidence of place-names, an early form of Celtic. Apart from the influence of some immigrants from the east during the early first millennium B.C., there is little to distinguish the Urnfield people from their descendants of the Hallstatt culture, other than the latter's use of iron. Again it would seem that the thread of continuity is strong.". This chapter was written by noted British pre-historian John Xavier Willington Patrick Corcoran:
Venceslas Kruta noted that the earliest Urnfield language was probably an early form of Celtic because of cultural continuity considerations with the development of the Canegrate->Golasecca culture speaking one of the earliest attested Celtic languages Lepontic. He also notes other earlier attested Celtic fragments from over the Alps. These people kept contact via intense and well-documented trade with Hallstatt and their language is considered by Joe Eska and Eric P. Hamp to be closely related to the Gaulish language.

Persian is the predominant and official language of Iran and throughout Iran's history, it has been the nation's most influential literary language. The Persian language has been often dubbed as the most worthy language of the world to serve as a conduit for poetry. Azerbaijani literature has also had a profound effect on Iran's literature with it being developed highly after Iran's first reunification in 800 years under the Safavid Empire, whose rulers themselves wrote poetry. There remain a few literary works of the extinct Iranian language of Old Azeri that was used in Azerbaijan prior to the linguistic Turkification of the people of the region. Kurdish literature has also had a profound impact on the literature of Iran with it incorporating the various Kurdish dialects that are spoken throughout the Middle East. The earliest works of Kurdish literature are those of the 16th-century poet Malaye Jaziri. Some notable greats of Iranian poetry which have had major global influence include the likes of Ferdowsi, Sa'di, Hafiz, Attar, Nezami, Rumi and Omar Khayyam. These poets have inspired the likes of Goethe, Ralph Waldo Emerson, and many others. Contemporary Iranian literature has been influenced by classical Persian poetry, but also reflects the particularities of modern-day Iran, through writers such as Houshang Moradi-Kermani, the most translated modern Iranian author, and poet Ahmad Shamlou. === Music ===
Iranian music has directly influenced the cultures of West Asia, Central Asia, Europe and South Asia. It has mainly influenced and built up much of the musical terminology of the neighboring Turkic and Arabic cultures, and reached India through the 16th-century Persianate Mughal Empire, whose court promoted new musical forms by bringing Iranian musicians. Iran is the place of origin of complex instruments, with the instruments dating back to the third millennium BC. A number of trumpets made of silver, gold, and copper were found in eastern Iran that are attributed to the Oxus civilization and date back between 2200 and 1750 BC. The use of both vertical and horizontal angular [have been documented at the archaeological sites of Madaktu (650 BC) and

Baby dolphin stranded in Mandurah is euthanised An eight-week-old dolphin named Breeze became stranded in a WA estuary The calf was found in Mandurah, south of Perth on Saturday morning Vets determined the calf was too young to survive in the wild and euthanised her By Jacob Polychronis For Daily Mail Australia
A baby dolphin that become stranded in an estuary after losing her mother was tragically euthanised after rescuers failed to find her mother. The eight-week-old calf named Breeze was found in ankle-high water in the Mandurah Estuary, south of Perth on Saturday morning. Volunteers took Breeze to deeper waters where they spent the day trying to reunite the calf with her mother, before leaving her in a sea-pen overnight. A vet was called and assessed the dolphin, but determined she could not survive on her own in the ocean and decided to have her euthanised the following day, according to Perth Now. Scroll down for video Department of Parks and Wildlife officer Matt Swan said it was the only option, as Breeze was too young to fend for herself in the wild and would have died of starvation. He said it's uncharacteristic for calves to be alone and it's likely Breeze was either abandoned, or something happened to her mother. 'We need to understand there's a reason why that mum and baby dolphin got separated,' he told Perth Now. 'Often a mum dolphin will carry a dead calf around for days sometimes, mourning the loss of that calf. Mums are very strongly bonded to their calves.' Mr Swan said calves usually suckle from their mother every hour, but Breeze had not been fed for more than 24 hours. The dolphin's corpse has been taken to Murdoch University in Perth, where it will be used for research. Department of Parks and Wildlife officer Matt Swan said it was the only option, as Breeze was too young to fend for itself in the wild and would have died of starvation Share or comment on this article

Gun in Paul Cleeland murder trial 'did not kill victim' Image caption Paul Cleeland has been fighting to clear his name for decades A forensic report on a murder in 1972 has proved the gun relied on at trial did not kill the victim, lawyers claim. Independent expert Dudley Gibbs has reviewed the case of Paul Cleeland, of Kent, who served 25 years for shooting Terry Clarke but always denied it. The report, commissioned by Cleeland's lawyers, precedes a judicial review of a Criminal Cases Review Commission (CCRC) decision not to allow an appeal. The CCRC could not comment ahead of the judicial review, which it contested. Since 1998, the CCRC has refused five applications to refer Cleeland's case to appeal - the fifth application was made by Folkestone and Hythe MP Damian Collins who believes his constituent's case could be "one of the last great miscarriages of justice from the 1970s." The CCRC revisited its first refusal and went on to refer the case to appeal in 2002 but Cleeland's legal bid failed. His first appeal had also failed in 1976. Cleeland has always insisted he was at home with his wife when Mr Clarke was killed in Stevenage, Hertfordshire. The suspected gangland boss was shot with two rounds, one in the back and one in the front, outside his home in the early hours of Bonfire Night. About 10 hours later, parts of a gun were found nearby and the barrels contained two spent Blue Rival cartridges, jurors heard in 1973. Cleeland, a painter and decorator, had represented himself at a retrial that ended in a life sentence. Image copyright Julia Quenzler Image caption Paul Cleeland represented himself and ran his own legal defence in 1973 Mr Gibbs, who has worked on a series of papers on the case, was asked by Cleeland's defence team to review a pathology report from 1972. His latest report, produced in January, said: "Given that the shot size of the pellets in the body was No 7s, the No 6 shot in the Blue Rival cartridges found with the Gye and Moncrieff (G&M) shotgun did not kill the man." Image copyright Hertfordshire Police Image caption Hertfordshire Police issued a picture of a weapon at the time The forensic expert disputed an earlier study which he said had "assumed" all the pellets were No 6 shot. He concluded there was "a high probability that the murder weapon was different from the one cited" - but Cleeland's lawyer, Ricky Arora, said the report "proves beyond any doubt that the shotgun relied upon at trial did not kill Terence Clarke." Image copyright Hertfordshire Police Image caption Terry Clarke was killed after he returned home from a bar The CCRC declined to comment while proceedings were continuing. However, the BBC has seen the CCRC's grounds for contesting the judicial review, which said the scientific evidence never did make a link between the gun and the murder, and added: "The evidence is unchanged." The CCRC document said: "There is no complete proof that the G&M gun fired the wadding found at the scene. However, the totality of the evidence does provide a link between the gun, the claimant and the murder." Cleeland's judicial review is due to be heard in April.

For de Blasio, Crash That Killed 2 Children Strikes Close to Home The local councilman, Brad Lander, appeared to channel the outrage of many of his neighbors at the driver, Dorothy Bruns, 44, who remained hospitalized on Tuesday. Mr. Lander said he received a call from the Police Department on Tuesday that her license had been suspended. "She should have had her license and her car taken away from her long ago," Mr. Lander said, pointing as many did on Tuesday to publicly available records indicating that her Volvo sedan had been involved in numerous traffic infractions. "Who are the people who are too dangerous to be driving, and how do we make sure that they're not?" City records indicated that, in the last two years, the Volvo had been caught on camera violating speed regulations around schools on four separate occasions, and another four times was caught running red lights. Photo People left flowers near the intersection, at Fifth Avenue and Ninth Street in Park Slope. Credit Dave Sanders for The New York Times While the violations are tied to the car, they do not link to the driver. A law enforcement official, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, said Ms. Bruns had a clean driving record on her license. The problem for prosecutors, should a case be brought in this crash, is that past behavior is not readily admitted into court. "There would be a problem using that information against the driver," said Maureen McCormick, a top assistant district attorney in Nassau County and the former head of vehicular crimes at the Brooklyn district attorney's office. "As a general rule, priors of any sort are not used against a defendant without a specific finding by the court that its probative value outweighs its potential for prejudice." The official said that the investigation is still open, but the police believe Ms. Bruns had a seizure while driving. Prosecutors are exploring whether she was cleared to drive. Last month, a Brooklyn district attorney brought manslaughter charges against a man with multiple sclerosis whose doctor told him before a fatal crash that he should not be driving. Ms. Bruns could not immediately be reached for comment. At the protest on Tuesday, Mr. de Blasio promised to "redouble" his efforts on his traffic safety plan, known as Vision Zero, and cataloged increases in police enforcement. City Hall officials pointed to the overall decline in fatalities under the mayor's plan and statistics that showed the intersection where the crash occurred, at Ninth Street and Fifth Avenue in Brooklyn, had a lower incidence of deaths or serious injuries from traffic compared with other locations. "Every time a crash like this happens, City Hall, D.O.T. and the N.Y.P.D. determine what more we can do to increase safety through enforcement, engineering and education," Seth Stein, a mayoral spokesman, said in a statement. "A full investigation is underway to determine the crash's cause, and the best course of action to make these streets safer." Those waving signs asked for changes to the street, including a protected bicycle lane. Doug Gordon, a television producer and advocate for safe streets who organized the demonstration, said the message of greater enforcement from the mayor - accused by some of having a "windshield perspective" on the transit-heavy city he governs - was not enough. "At the point that you're stopping a speeding driver, you're kind of too late," he said. "We want to prevent people from being killed, not investigate their deaths after the fact." After the mayor's workout, he and his wife, Chirlane McCray, laid flowers on a makeshift memorial for the two dead children, Abigail Blumenstein, 4, and Joshua Lew, 1. Other local political leaders, including Mr. Lander, also put down flowers. The deaths were also widely mourned on social media by many of Ms. Miles's colleagues, including Kristin Chenoweth, Sutton Foster, Audra McDonald and Lin-Manuel Miranda, some highlighting GoFundMe pages for the families of Ms. Miles and Lauren Lew, whose son, Joshua, was killed.

The Ghica family (Ghica, Gjika, Gikas, Γκίκαs) was a noble family active in Wallachia, Moldavia and in the Kingdom of Romania, between the 17th and 19th centuries. ==History==
===Origins===
The family's origins is established to be Albanian by the Sturdza family of Moldavia whose patriarch Demetrios Sturdza is the authority on the Medieval Family Genealogies in Europe. He writes that "His father was a certain Georgje Ghica, Albanian by birth, who lived in Moldavia in the time of his companion, Basile the Wolf". At the end of the page he gives full account of this "Albanian' family and its contribute to Moldavia. Wiet, the French Counsel in Shkodra cites the 'Albanese Gjica, the compatriot of the Grand Vesir" per Adrianopoli letters 3 April 1658, Wien, the Austrian Chancellery. Likewise, the writer Dora d'Istria (1828–1888), a descendant, claimed that the family hailed from southern Albania, more specifically from Labovë e Madhe, where they had an estate. Albanologist Robert Elsie views the family as being of Albanian origin. It has also been suggested that the family was of Aromanian origin. A legend — full of Oriental charm, historical inaccuracies and anachronisms — transmitted by the Moldavian chronicler Ion Neculce speaks about two poor boys destined to greatness, meeting on the road to Constantinople, and who promise mutual support in the future to come: one is an "Arbëreshë" ("an Albanian" or "a speaker of Albanian", merchant multilingualism notwithstanding) standing in for Gheorghe Ghica, the founder of the Ghica family, while on the other is a "Turk from Cyprus" — the founder of the Köprülü family. On the other hand, later members of the Ghica family displayed an Aromanian national consciousness (the Austrian branches being heteroidentified as of Aromanian origin) or promoted Aromanian culture — e.g., Grigore III Ghica's plans for an Aromanian school network in the Ottoman ruled areas of the Balkans. Each of the two theories strongly influenced the Albanian and, respectively, the Aromanian communities in Romania and elsewhere, with each claiming the Ghica's as their own. In any case, until 1777 — the year Grigore III Ghica was assassinated for opposing the annexation of Bukovina by the Habsburgs, the Ghicas' identity oscillated only between a Romanian and a Hellenic (Greek-Phanariote) one; subsequently, a firm Romanian self-identity can be ascribed to the family. The family's history and fame, as well as its putative Albanian origins, are mostly known to the Western readers from Princess Elena Ghica's memories, Gli Albanesi in Rumenia. Storia dei principi Ghika ("The Albanians in Romania. The history of the Ghica Princes"). For Dora d'Istria (Elena Ghica's nom de plume), the crumbly theory of an Albanian origin of the family's founder, resurrected after several centuries of latent existence, proved to be very lucrative: it gave a new sense for her Romantic involvement in the Balkan people's emancipation struggle (having previously adopted — and later abandoned — a Hellenophile attitude, by courtesy of her Greek maternal ancestry and under the influence of her Greek tutor Gregorios Papadopoulos), as well as in her anti-establishment attitude generated by the entrenching of the Hohenzollern in the Romanian Principality to the detriment of her family who had high hopes for a return on the throne. She started learning Albanian history, and eventually became — since 1866 — the main advocate in Western Europe of the Albanian cause, despite the fact that she never knew or learned the Albanian language. Her book, Gli Albanesi in Rumenia. Storia dei principi Ghika, which upon its publication in 1873 in Florence caused the wrath of her family, repudiating her, managed to forever shift the public perception towards the Albanian theory for the origin the family, at the expense of the Aromanian one. The book was preceded by a series of articles on the nationalities from South-Eastern Europe and their struggle for independence. After articles on the Romanian (1859), Greek (1860) and Serbian (1865) ethnic identity, Dora d'Istria published in 1866 the article entitled The Albanian nationality according to folksongs.

Self-proclaimed Nazi found guilty of stirring antisemitism in UK A self-proclaimed Nazi who claimed Britain took the wrong side in the second world war has been convicted of stirring racial hatred against Jewish people. A jury at Preston crown court unanimously found that the 22-year-old man from Lancashire, who cannot be named for legal reasons, had breached the Public Order Act 1986 by using "threatening, abusive or insulting words or behaviour" intended to stir up racial hatred. The man committed the offences in two speeches, the first in March 2016 at a demonstration by a group called North West Infidels in Blackpool and the second at a meeting of the Yorkshire forum for nationalists, attended by people from various far-right groups. The jury was played a recording of the Blackpool demonstration in which the defendant could be heard describing Jewish people as "parasites" and arguing that Britain should have joined the Nazis to fight the communists in the second world war. The man added: "Yes, I am a national socialist, I'm not scared of that label. You can call me Nazi. You can call me fascist. That is what I am." In the second speech the defendant said he thought Hitler had shown too much mercy towards Jewish people. Matthew Brook, prosecuting said the man had been using the speech to explain his support for the now banned group National Action, and was "in effect recruiting for them." Brook told the court: "He was clearly saying in both speeches that the Jewish race should be killed... He is making both of those speeches to recruit members to his cause and to encourage people who already agree with his racist views to stand firm." Giving evidence, the defendant confirmed he was a Nazi but said that did not mean he hated all Jews. He denied intending to stir racial hatred and instead said he was trying to provoke lively debate and to shift people's views further to the right. After the verdict, the anti-racism organisation Hope Not Hate said it was pleased to have provided "the impetus and evidence" for the man's prosecution. A date for sentencing has yet to be set.

Quake-Aid Need Acute in Nepal Capital, More So in Villages Shelter, fuel, food, medicine, power, news, workers - Nepal's earthquake-hit capital was short on everything Monday as its people searched for lost loved ones, sorted through rubble for their belongings and struggled to provide for their families' needs. In much of the countryside, it was worse, though how much worse was only beginning to become apparent. The official death toll soared past 4,000, even without a full accounting from vulnerable mountain villages that rescue workers were still struggling to reach two days after the disaster. Udav Prashad Timalsina, the top official for the Gorkha district, where Saturday's magnitude-7.8 quake was centered, said he was in desperate need of help. "There are people who are not getting food and shelter. I've had reports of villages where 70 percent of the houses have been destroyed," he said. Aid group World Vision said its staff members were able to reach Gorkha, but gathering information from the villages remained a challenge. Even when roads are clear, the group said, some remote areas can be three days' walk from Gorkha's main disaster center. Some roads and trails have been blocked by landslides, the group said in an email to The Associated Press. "In those villages that have been reached, the immediate needs are great including the need for search and rescue, food items, blankets and tarps, and medical treatment." Timalsina said 223 people had been confirmed dead in Gorkha district but he presumed "the number would go up because there are thousands who are injured." He said his district had not received enough help from the central government, but Jagdish Pokhrel, the clearly exhausted army spokesman, said nearly the entire 100,000-soldier army was involved in rescue operations. "We have 90 percent of the army out there working on search and rescue," he said. "We are focusing our efforts on that, on saving lives." Saturday's earthquake spread horror from Kathmandu to small villages and to the slopes of Mount Everest, triggering an avalanche that buried part of the base camp packed with foreign climbers preparing to make their summit attempts. Aid is coming from more than a dozen countries and many charities, but Lila Mani Poudyal, the government's chief secretary and the rescue coordinator, said Nepal needed more. He said the recovery was also being slowed because many workers - water tanker drivers, electricity company employees and laborers needed to clear debris - "are all gone to their families and staying with them, refusing to work." "We are appealing for tents, dry goods, blankets, mattresses, and 80 different medicines that the health department is seeking that we desperately need now," Poudyal told reporters. "We don't have the helicopters that we need or the expertise to rescue the people trapped." As people are pulled from the wreckage, he noted, even more help is needed. "Now we especially need orthopedic (doctors), nerve specialists, anaesthetists, surgeons and paramedics," he said. "We are appealing to foreign governments to send these specialized and smart teams." About 7,180 people were injured in the quake, police said. Poudyal estimated that tens of thousands of people had been left homeless. "We have been under severe stress and pressure, and have not been able to reach the people who need help on time," he said. The arrival of relief flights has caused major backups at Kathmandu's small airport.
