Edwin Duhon

Edwin Duhon (11 June 1910 – 26 February 2006) was an American musician and co-founder of the Hackberry Ramblers, a band playing a combination of Cajun music, Western swing, and country music.

Duhon was born in Broussard, Louisiana. He formed the Hackberry Ramblers along with fiddler Luderin Darbone in 1933. He first played acoustic guitar and went on to play electric guitar, piano, double bass, harmonica, and accordion at various times. He focused solely on the accordion from the mid-1990s. Duhon's last performance was in November 2005.

In 2002, Duhon and Darbone received a National Heritage Fellowship from the U.S. National Endowment for the Arts, which is the country's highest honor in the folk and traditional arts.

Duhon died at the age of 95 in Westlake, Louisiana.

Wikiversity:Candidates for Custodianship/Student Galaxy

Student Galaxy
Student Galaxy 13:06, 31 December 2006 (UTC)
 * I' am nominating myself for Custodianship, as I have in my views, been a very fair editor and contributor to Wikiversity, I have been with the project for just over a month, and I have made 280 edits altogether. Which is fair for a small project like this. I created a project page, the Wikiversity appeal board which is a notice board for custodians where vandals and sockpuppets are noted. I created a fantastic page on Soccer, plus a page on UFO research and have uploaded 4 new barnstars for the project. I worked well with other users, and expanded the content of exsisting pages. On wikipedia, I' am a frequent user who has created lots of useful articles with a few hundred edits. As a custodian, I would crack down on vandalism, protect frequently vandalised pages, and give new users as much help and advice as I can. I have a strong sense of seriousness and I' am very good at dealing with trolls.

Comments
❌ No discussion for 8 years. And I am pretty sure Student Galaxy is not interested in custodianship anymore. Thanks for volunteering, but sadly, the community has not taken interest in this custodianship request. --Goldenburg111 22:08, 30 March 2014 (UTC)

1926–27 Harvard Crimson men's ice hockey season

The 1926–27 Harvard Crimson men's ice hockey season was the 29th season of play for the program.

Season
Before the season began, Harvard made a decision to end their annual contests against Princeton. The two teams had played one another, often multiple times, every year since 1901 with exception of the 1918 campaign (due to World War I). The problem was that Princeton hadn't challenged for a league championship since before the War, which was also the last time they had beaten Harvard in the season series. Harvard was also able to fill the gap in their schedule with the return of Brown after a 20-year hiatus.

A bigger issue that Harvard had to contend with was a new rule limiting each team to just 12 players per game. While that didn't affect most programs, the Crimson had been routinely using many alternates during their games, resulting in 15 or more players in some contests. Regardless of the new limitations, Harvard began the season well. After a solid win over MIT the team played three games against Canadian colleges and finished with a split decision, a difficult task considering the quality of their opponents. Unfortunately, the team also lost sophomore forward Henry Crosby to appendicitis just before the second Toronto game.

After proving their international mettle, Harvard played its first ever western opponent when it hosted Notre Dame. The Crimson dominated the Irish 7–0 but little beyond that could be established from the game as Notre Dame wasn't a particularly strong team that season. Harvard avenged a loss from the year before with a hard-fought victory over Boston University then entered their showdown against Yale with a chance at another intercollegiate title. The Crimson offense overpowered the Elis in the first game, and after securing a season-series win over Dartmouth with a tie, Harvard finished the season at the newly-refurbished New Haven Arena. Harvard built a 2-goal lead and then played their typical stifling defense to earn a 2–1 win and finish the season undefeated against collegiate opponents.

A day after the victory, head coach Edward Bigelow announced that he was resigning from his position to devote himself fully to his business career. Though his tenure was short, few could claim as much success as Bigelow did with two intercollegiate championships and a record of 25–8–2 (22–3–1 against collegiate opponents).

Programming Logic/Conditionals and Logic

Conditionals and logic

Let's take the robot idea. You have a set of commands for him. If you tell him anything else other than the commands he knows, he does his "do the locomotion dance"

The commands available are Options 1-4 *Option 1 - the robot follows you and has a light that fills the area right in front of you *Option 2 - the robot follows you and plays your favorite theme song ("Bright side of Life" from Monty Python's Life of Brian) *Option 3 - he writes down everything you say into a file that can be uploaded to your computer using his USB port *Option 4 - He goes to his power base and parks in order to recharge his batteries.

Remember - if you say anything other than 1, 2, 3, or 4, he will do the locomotion dance.

This means you actually have 5 options: The 4 commands and the "anything else" for a total of 5 options. Each one of these options contains a conditional expression, and an action based upon the result.

An IF statement allows you to program the robot to think about the command, and make the correct decision. Verbally, this might be expressed as "If I say 1, the robot will follow and shine his light. If I say 2, the robot will follow me and play my song.  If I say 3, the robot will write down everything I say and store it.  If I say 4, the robot will recharge.  Otherwise, the robot dances the locomotion."

Each of these expressions can be answered with a TRUE or a FALSE (A Boolean value) if rephrased as "IF it's TRUE that I said 1"... IF it's TRUE that I said 2"... If it's TRUE I said something else..."

Now, each expression has a condition - they MUST evaluate to TRUE or FALSE. Now the robot can be taught to make decisions.

As for the mysterious option 5, we'll just refer to that as an "ELSE" ....

input user (voice recognition command+case_num) ( for (case_num); ( if case 1 then do lighting routine if case 2 then play  if case 3 then run note taking program if case 4 then move home connect to power enter sleep mode else do    ) ) return 0;

___________________________________________________ now scrappy has a definite action to take for any "case" command given to him

assuming his "do the locomotion routine" has a do until condition

and scrappy has voice recognition where he has specific values recorded for those allowed

David Proctor (footballer, born 1984)

David William Proctor (born 4 May 1984) is a Scottish football player and coach, currently manager of Lowland league outfit Cumbernauld Colts.

Proctor has also played for Inverness Caledonian Thistle, Dundee United, Canadian club FC Edmonton, Airdrieonians (two spells), and East Kilbride (three spells).

Career
A right-sided player, Proctor began his professional career with Hibernian but didn't make an appearance and joined Inverness Caledonian Thistle in 2003. After three years with the Highlanders, which included winning the Scottish First Division in his first season, Proctor signed for Dundee United. Proctor was managed for a second time by Craig Brewster, who had been appointed United manager earlier that year.

Following Brewster's departure from Tannadice just two months later and Craig Levein's subsequent arrival, Proctor was set to move to Airdrie United in January 2007, only for FIFA to confirm Proctor's reserve appearance for Inverness in August 2006 counted and prevented him for playing for a third club within a year. The ruling was similar to the case of Javier Mascherano, whose January 2007 move from West Ham United to Liverpool received FIFA support but depended on Premier League permission. Both moves were eventually allowed.

After helping Airdrie to Scottish First Division play-off victory and thus ensuring the avoidance of relegation, Proctor returned to United, featuring in three pre-season friendlies against lower league opposition. Proctor was an unused substitute in the first two matches of the 2007–08 season before leaving by mutual consent on 31 August to return to Inverness Caledonian Thistle. Proctor left Inverness at the end of the 2011–12 season. He signed for Canadian NASL club FC Edmonton in July 2012. He left Edmonton in November 2013, after failing to agree a new contract.

Proctor then returned to Scotland and signed for Airdrieonians in July 2014. Although he was released from his playing contract due to injury in February 2015 Proctor agreed to continue at Airdrieonians in a scouting capacity. In April 2016 he signed for Lowland League club East Kilbride. After two seasons there, he returned to Airdrieonians in May 2018 as first team coach. He rejoined East Kilbride as a player in November 2018, left them at the end of the 2018–19 season, but rejoined them for a third spell in December 2019. In February 2020, Proctor and teammate Craig Malcolm took interim charge of the team after the departure of previous interim manager Jim Paterson.

Proctor joined Cumbernauld Colts as a first team coach ahead of the 2021-22 season.

Portaferry Castle

Portaferry Castle is a small tower house in Portaferry, County Down, Northern Ireland, overlooking the harbour. It was built in the 16th century by William Le Savage. Portaferry Castle tower house is a State Care Historic Monument in the townland of Ballyphilip, in Borough of Ards, at grid ref: J5930 5085.

History
The castle was probably built in the 16th century by a member of the Savage family. In 1635, Patrick Savage's brother-in-law, Sir James Montgomery of Rosemount (Greyabbey), repaired the castle by roofing and flooring it so that his sister could live in greater comfort there.

Features
It is a square building with a small projecting turret on the south corner. It is three storeys high plus attic and there is no vault. Most of the eastern corner is in ruins. The entrance at the base of the tower is protected by a small machicolation and the entrance to the ground floor chamber is protected by a murder-hole. A curved stairway within the tower rises to the first floor and a spiral stairway in the west corner continues to roof level.

Portal:Social Sciences/Introduction

Welcome to the Social Sciences Portal! This dashboard provides you with a division of Wikiversity that is similar to a "school" at a brick-and-mortar university. Here you will find links to various divisions, schools, research projects, learning resources, and so much more.

The Social Sciences were created for the study of social groups and, more generally, human society. This has become an interesting and fascinating endeavour for programs such as Wikiversity that do not cater to just one social group but for a global audience. As a result, the education efforts that we pursue in Wikiversity's Social Sciences Portal should be both specific and universal. For instructors it is recommended that a broad range of material is presented to students such that they are able to pursue academic rigour in a variety of subject areas and not from a culturally-specific point of view. Rather, students should be given options in selecting multiple points of perspective on the various issues that affect the study of global society. Consequently, students will be encouraged to engage in learning multiple perspectives about the same problem-set, as one finds that the approach to subject-matter on one side of the planet is not always the same as it is on the other. Let us hope that both students and teachers will engage in this worthwhile endeavour to explore the various aspects of the global social landscape as we seek to increase our understanding of ourselves and of one another

Samuel Tilden 1876 presidential campaign

The 1876 U.S. presidential election occurred at the twilight of Reconstruction and was between Republican Rutherford B. Hayes and Democrat Samuel J. Tilden. After an extremely heated election dispute, a compromise was eventually reached where Hayes would become U.S. President in exchange for the end of Reconstruction and a withdrawal of U.S. federal troops from the South.

The Democratic nomination fight
After the Democrats captured control of the U.S. House of Representatives in 1874, they believed that they had their best chance in 20 years of winning the U.S. presidency. In the 1874 elections, a new set of Democratic party leaders emerged which included New York Governor Samuel J. Tilden. Tilden was previously the chair of the New York Democratic Party as well as the campaign manager for Horatio Seymour's unsuccessful 1868 presidential campaign and was notable for both toppling Boss Tweed (the corrupt boss of the Tammany Hall political machine) and prosecuting the Canal Ring. As the Governor of the most populous U.S. state, Tilden was an obvious choice and the front-runner for the 1876 Democratic presidential nomination.

At the 1876 Democratic National Convention, Tilden easily won the required two-thirds of delegates to win the Democratic presidential nomination on the first ballot, winning 535 delegates to 140½ for his nearest rival Indiana Governor Thomas A. Hendricks. Hendricks was then selected as Tilden's running mate due to him being from the crucial swing state of Indiana as well as due to the fact that "his support of soft-money balanced Tilden's hard-money stance on the divisive 'money-question.'" Meanwhile, on the Republican side, reformist Ohio Governor Rutherford B. Hayes won the Republican nomination as a compromise candidate after front-runner James G. Blaine failed in his nomination bid due to his corruption scandals.

Campaign
The 1876 Democratic platform demanded the repeal of the Specie Payment Resumption Act, condemned the Grant Administration's corruption, reaffirmed the Reconstruction Amendments, denounced Congressional Reconstruction as both coercive and corrupt, supported a tariff only for revenue, conservation of public lands, and civil service reform. Meanwhile, the Republicans "waved the bloody shirt" by associating the Democrats with the Confederacy and criticized Tilden's questionable tax returns, early association with Boss Tweed, poor health, and conflicting views on the "money question" in comparison to his running mate.

Tilden's campaign aggressively focused on winning the crucial New York state and its 35 electoral votes while the Grant Administration spent nearly $300,000—mostly in the South and in New York City—on deputy marshals and supervisors whose job was to secure a fair election (there was violence against and intimidation of Black voters by the Democrats in the Southern U.S. in 1876). Meanwhile, the Democratic-controlled House made a crucial blunder when it passed a statehood bill for Colorado in the middle of the campaign. While the Democrats might have believed that Colorado would vote for Tilden, it ended up giving its electors to Hayes and thus provided the decisive margin for Hayes's victory in the election.

Results
While both candidates went to bed on Election Night, Tuesday, Nov. 7, 1876, assuming that Tilden had won (indeed, Tilden had won the national popular vote by a 51%-48% margin), late results from the West made the election outcome unclear. Tilden had won 184 electoral votes (one short of a majority) whereas 20 electoral votes (one from Oregon and 19 from the South) were disputed. The dispute over the 19 electoral votes from the Southern U.S. was based on the fact that there was a dispute over who had carried the states of Louisiana, Florida, and South Carolina. After some debate, a 15-member Electoral Commission was created to decide the fate of the disputed electoral votes and thus the outcome of the election. This commission included five U.S. Senators (three Republicans and two Democrats), five U.S. Representatives (three Democrats and two Republicans), and five U.S. Supreme Court members (four of whom were selected by geographic diversity and who would later select the fifth one). The commission's decisions were to be legally regarded as final unless both houses of Congress overrode these decisions.

Out of the five Supreme Court members of this commission, there were two Republicans, two Democrats, and one independent—U.S. Supreme Court Justice David Davis. In an attempt to win Davis's favor, the Democratic-Greenback coalition in the new Illinois legislature appointed Davis to the U.S. Senate. To their surprise, however, Davis immediately resigned from the Electoral Commission in order to take his U.S. Senate seat. Meanwhile, Davis was replaced on the Electoral Commission by Republican Joseph P. Bradley.

Ultimately, the Electoral Commission voted on a partisan 8 to 7 vote to award all 20 disputed electoral votes to Hayes (with Justice Bradley being the decisive vote in all of these votes), thus allowing him to defeat Tilden and win the U.S. presidency by one electoral vote (with 185 electoral votes going to Hayes while 184 electoral votes went to Tilden). To get the Democrats—especially Southern Democrats—to acquiesce in Hayes's victory, Hayes and the Republicans agreed to withdraw all U.S. federal troops from the Southern U.S. and thus to cause Reconstruction to come to an end. Over the next 80 years, the Solid South would be a reliable Democratic bloc in U.S. politics.

Samuel Tilden waited until June 13, 1877, before he conceded the 1876 U.S. presidential election to Rutherford Hayes.

[Murray Todd Williams] (born: March 18, 1970) is a 34 year-old Coloradan, born and raised in Fort Collins. His interests are varied enough to suggest schizophrenia or multiple-personality disorder. Part of his brain belongs to the sciences—he has a B.A. in Mathematics from Pomona College and an M.S. in Statistics from Colorado State University. Despite that he has spent five years in New York City and two in Los Angeles pursuing acting, dance, voice and writing.

Murray has been an avid computer enthusiast since age eight. His computers of influence were (in order) the HP 85 and HP 9845/C, CDC Cyber, Apple II, TI 99/4A, "PC", IBM 4341, and various models of DEC VAX before he fell in love with Apple after the unveiling of OS X. He is co-author of the book "Early Adopter Mac OS X Java" ISBN 186100611X.

Recently Murray has become involved in Politics, motivated equally by his opposition to George W. Bush and the inspiration of Howard Dean. He helped establish the [Stonewall Young Democrats] in Los Angeles.

Draft:Operating system/Operating Systems/Linux

Portal:Engineering_and_Technology/School:Computer_Science/Topic: Operating Systems/GNU-Linux

Welcome to the Department of Linux

Linux is commonly used to refer to a GNU/Linux operating system. Modern operating systems including both Linux and Windows consist of two main parts. These are the kernel, which talks directly to system hardware, and 'user land' which is where any program users interact with are run. As vital as the kernel is it is still only about 4% of an operating system. The other 96% is provided by the 'user land' tools. In the case of a normal GNU/Linux system Linux refers only to the kernel. The user land tools are mostly provided by the GNU project.

The Linux kernel is a clone of the commercial operating system UNIX. It was created from scratch by Linus Torvalds and is now maintained by a volunteer group of coders distributed around the globe. Linux is now developed under the GNU General Public License (GPL).

The GNU Public Licence is also used on all software produced by the GNU project. This is the vast majority of a full GNU/Linux system. This licence states that software can be downloaded, used, and changed by anyone without charge on the condition that anyone distributing a changed version also has to provide the source code to their changes. GNU is a recursive acronym for 'GNU is Not Unix.'

Many Linux system administrators believe the 'open source' model used by GNU/Linux results in more reliable and secure code.

Distributions
The Linux operating system is open source. (http://www.linux-diff.net/) There are thousands of application programs running on it. A particular selection of operating system components and applications are called a 'distribution'. Everybody is entitled to compose a distribution. However most users tend to stick to more well know distributions.

Distributions are full packaged operating systems. You can download them, install them, and use them to run your programs! Here is an ( incomplete ) list of the major players in the Linux distro world:
 * Trisquel - GNU/Linux is a fully free operating system for home users, small enterprises and educational centers.

 * Red Hat - The biggest distributor of Enterprise Linux, with its flagship Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) products. It is free as in Freedom but offered with support contract based on user requirements. Market focus on the Enterprise market space.
 * Fedora - Formerly known as Fedora Core, It is a free open source Red Hat sponsored distribution. Fedora is the upstream of Red Hat Enterprise Linux which means all new features will come out first in Fedora before possible inclusion into Red Hat Enterprise Linux ( RHEL ) upon maturity and enough demand to create support services around it.
 * CentOS - A binary compatible Linux distribution with Red Hat Enterprise Linux built using the freely available source code of Red Hat Enterprise Linux minus the support contract and Red Hat trademark.
 * Debian - The largest community-run Linux distribution on earth with its own Debian Social Contract and Constitution. Large package database, excellent hardware detection. Lots of distribution built their Linux based on Debian including Ubuntu.
 * Ubuntu - One of the latest and widely used. Immensely popular for its easy install process and ease of use. Ubuntu includes  some non-free (as in freedom), but convenient software. Based on Debian.
 * Linux_Mint - User friendly setup for those used to Windows OS. Easily usable right out of the box. Currently the 4th most popular OS used. Free and open source.
 * Knoppix - The best for hardware detection, which makes the whole thing boot slower, still, if you can't get Knoppix installed, then you really must be trying to make things difficult.
 * SUSE - The second largest Linux distribution company in the world. Being bought over by Novell and famous for its Suse Linux Enterprise Server (SLES) and SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop (SLED). Free as in freedom with supports contract around it.
 * openSUSE - Novell sponsored free open source distro, openSUSE is to SUSE Linux what Fedora is to Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
 * Oracle Linux
 * Gentoo - Designed for enthusiasts, professionals, and people who want to squeeze every last ounce of performance out of their machine. Most of the software is provided as source, instead of in a binary form.
 * Slackware - The oldest distro that is still maintained.
 * Puppy_Linux - Runs completly in RAM and is therefore very fast.
 * Damn Small Linux - A Linux distro at only 50mb!
 * Tiny Core Linux - A Linux distro at only 10mb!!
 * rPath- An appliance friendly distro that uses conray for package management. This allows users to have a server running on their desktop or laptop machine completely independently.  Many preconfigured server configurations are available for many of the virtural machines, such as VMplayer.

Computer Programming/Event driven programming

In this type of programming, a section of code is written to respond to each event. Events can be user events such as button clicks or mouse moves. Events can also be generated within the computer, for example timer events. Finally, the programmer can generate events.

Responding to an event is sometimes termed handling an event.

The program simply consists of sections that respond to events. These may, in turn use other sections (procedures, methods).

Example
This simple GTK+ program makes a GUI, with a button, that responds to the click event, after we enter a main-loop given by the gtk_main function. When ever events occur, like "clicked" event, we lookup event-handlers connected to it via g_signal_connect function, and delegate functions by invoking them. In this case the handler, btn_clicked is invoked.

Randy White (basketball)

Randy White (born November 4, 1967) is an American former professional basketball player. During his playing career, at a height of 6'8" (2.03 m), and a weight of 240 pounds (109 kg), he played at the power forward position. He played college basketball for the Louisiana Tech Bulldogs.

College career
White was a star at Louisiana Tech University, where he averaged 21.2 points and 10.5 rebounds as a senior, and earned the nicknames "Mailman II", and "Mailkid" (a reference to NBA legend and Louisiana Tech alumnus Karl "The Mailman" Malone), who White was often compared to, since they shared many traits, such as starring for Louisiana Tech University.

Jim Veltman

James Edward "Scoop" Veltman (born March 8, 1966) is a Canadian former lacrosse player who played for the Toronto Rock, the Ontario Raiders, and the Buffalo Bandits in the National Lacrosse League. Veltman won three NLL championships with the Bandits and then five more with the Rock, where he was captain for ten seasons.

Veltman and Dallas Eliuk were inducted into the National Lacrosse League Hall of Fame in March, 2009.

NLL career
Veltman began his NLL career in 1992 with the Buffalo Bandits. He played 5 seasons with the Bandits, winning three NLL Championships. After the 1996 season, Veltman and his wife travelled to Uganda where they did volunteer work for 17 months.

In 1998, Veltman returned to the NLL, moving with Bandit head coach Les Bartley to the expansion Ontario Raiders, based in Hamilton, Ontario. A year later, the Ontario franchise move to Toronto, becoming the Toronto Rock, where Jim has won five more NLL Championships. Veltman was the captain of the Rock from 1999 until his retirement following the 2008 season.

Jim Veltman led the National Lacrosse League in loose balls in 14 out of the 16 seasons he played, earning him the nickname "Scoop". On February 5, 2006, Veltman reached a milestone as he "scooped" his 2000th career loose ball. He also set the single season record for loose balls with 226 in the 2006 season. Veltman scooped 14 loose balls on April 8, 2006, to break his own previous record of 207, set in 2003. The record stood until Geoff Snider scooped 244 in 2008. John Tavares, the NLL's all-time leading scorer, considers Veltman to be "the best teammate he ever had."

Veltman was the first recipient of the National Lacrosse League Sportsmanship Award in 2002, and was named league MVP in 2004. He was also the first recipient of the Toronto Rock's Les Bartley Award (not to be confused with the NLL's Les Bartley Award for coach of the year).

On September 11, 2007, the Toronto Rock announced that they had resigned Veltman to a five-year agreement. Veltman would remain captain of the Rock for one more season, after which he would retire from playing and join the Rock coaching staff. The announcement ended speculation that Veltman was considering retiring to take the vacant Colorado Mammoth head coach position, a position eventually taken by Bob McMahon.

On April 27, 2008, Veltman played his last career game, as the Rock lost 15-14 to the Philadelphia Wings. Veltman had one goal, four assists, and 17 loose balls.

On April 12, 2019, Veltman's jersey number 32 was retired by the Toronto Rock in a pregame ceremony.

Off the floor, Veltman is a physical education teacher at Agincourt Collegiate Institute.

Post-playing career
Following his retirement, Veltman became an assistant coach for the Rock in the 2009 season, later serving as the defensive coordinator for the New England Black Wolves in 2016 and 2017. He also served as head coach for the Czech national team at the 2011 World Indoor Lacrosse Championships in Prague. He was named the second general manager in New York Riptide franchise history on July 10, 2020. Veltman was relieved of his duties as Riptide GM on January 9, 2023.

2015 Liqui Moly Bathurst 12 Hour

The 2015 Liqui Moly Bathurst 12 Hour was an endurance race for a variety of GT and touring car classes, including: GT3 cars, GT4 cars and Group 3E Series Production Cars. The event, which was staged at the Mount Panorama Circuit, near Bathurst, in New South Wales, Australia on 8 February 2015, was the thirteenth running of the Bathurst 12 Hour.

53 cars were entered for the race and 50 cars started the race, with two entries withdrawn following crashes in practice and the other due to drivers being injured in a road accident prior to the event. Katsumasa Chiyo, Wolfgang Reip and Florian Strauss won the event driving a Nissan GT-R Nismo GT3. Reip and Strauss had both come through the GT Academy programme.

The highlight of the race came in the closing laps. The Nissan had been racing conservatively all day, just staying on the lead lap and in touch with the leaders. Matt Bell led the field in one of the M-Sport Bentleys, ahead of Laurens Vanthoor in the Phoenix Racing Audi with Chiyo in third. Stefan Mucke and Dean Canto were also on the lead lap. There were a few late safety car periods, with the last leaving two laps of racing to the finish. Once racing began Chiyo took second at the first corner before taking the lead going up Mountain Straight. As Chiyo built a gap over his rivals, a battle developed for second place, with Bell ahead of Vanthoor and Mucke. Mucke passed Vanthoor for third going down Conrod Straight on the final lap before attempting to pass Bell at the final corner. Mucke made contact with Bell, sending him into a slide, while Vanthoor drove around the outside of both cars to take second place behind Chiyo. Mucke took third while Bell dropped to fourth.

Class structure

Talk:Deborah Voigt

Name
How do Americans pronounce this German name? I gather that it's completely "wrong" from a German point of view (which would mean something like "faukt", but it is rather something like "void"). Some American pronunciation help in the article would be greatly appreciated, though. --AndreasPraefcke (talk) 17:42, 23 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Well, it is more like void, voi-t. Bearian (talk) 21:16, 27 May 2009 (UTC)

Class
I've upper this to Start-class. I believe the Opera project does not use C, and it doesn't seem to have quite come together enough for B yet, so start seems about right. Shoemaker's Holiday (talk) 23:05, 29 May 2009 (UTC)

Balance? Too much about DV's obesity?
IMO this article gives too much prominence to DV's problems with obesity. I think it would be preferable to focus more on her career. What do other editors think? There seems to be a tendency for artists who have attracted popular mainstream media attention in America to get this kind of treatment, but I don't think it reflects well on WP. I'm not suggesting this material should be removed - just that it shouldn't appear in the lead and dominate the TOC. -- Klein zach  23:14, 29 May 2009 (UTC)
 * I concur with your point on the obesity. Her career in 1990s and her roles in Strauss's opera are almost missing, but if we want a balance, we have to keep inserting contents.--Caspian blue 05:43, 30 May 2009 (UTC)

 * I do as well. Does this article we really need such detailed description of how gastric bypass surgery works, previous fat opera singers, and opinions about whether opera casting should take into account a singer's appearance? Not to mention the "little black dress" incident. In some ways I can understand the temptation because the coverage of it is easy to find. But, it's all from sources who basically didn't know what they were talking about, had not seen the original production or even pictures of it, and based their articles on what Voigt and her management told them in numerous interviews and press releases in 2004.

 * I actually saw the 2002 premiere of the ROH Ariadne production with Petra Lang in the title role and the revival when Schwillems replaced Voigt. The costume isn't and never was the strappy "little black dress" that people envision when they see the term. It was floor length, with a high neckline and long sleeves, see Petra Lang in the costume. Note also, that Voight had only been contracted for the revival (and 5 years in advance), before the costumes and the production had been designed and performed (to great praise) in 2002 – something the article doesn't make clear. It is also wrong to say that Ariadne is usually performed in period costumes. European productions have used modern dress (or some form of it) for years. Loy's production was not particularly unusual at the time. Secondly, she was not fired at the last minute, which is again implied although not stated in the article, nor did she wait "a few months" before saying anything. Schwillems appeared on the public advance schedules for the revival from the outset, many months before the actual performance and was actually engaged by the ROH in 2002 as a replacement for Voigt. See  Thirdly, Anne Schwanewilms may have been "a little known German singer" to CBS news (hardly an authority on opera), but when she was engaged by the ROH, she was quite well known in Europe and highly praised for her Strauss roles and similar repertoire. Editors working on this article might want to read these:, , .  But frankly, I'd prune the whole discussion way down.

 * Here are some suggestions for improvement... The weight issue saga (even if it were neutrally presented, which it's not at the moment) takes up reams of space which should be devoted to information about her career as opposed to her figure or her future plans (both of which make the artcle look a bit like a fan site). It needs her house debuts with the date and role sung, her repertoire and role debuts, critical reception both positive and negative). What about her musical training and studies? They are given very scanty coverage and a lot of it is about her high school. She has been singing in major roles since 1991 and has a distinguished discography, which is very scantily covered. She's a regular singer at the Met and her performance record there is available in detail on their database.. This early article may also help with filling out the article and there are quite a lot of other ones available in the Opera News archives:
 * Another point, this link to a blog is inappropriate as a reference, and also violates copyright by displaying the photos. Also, the link to a fanclub on facebook is probably inappropriate per WP:EL. Voceditenore (talk) 08:23, 30 May 2009 (UTC)
 * I stumbled upon here by Bearian's DYK nomination, and the article still needs 4000 characters for that. I don't think Bearian would be happy about any deletion at this time although I agree with the excessive emphasis on her weight and the incident are frowning and violates NPOV. The intro has to be modified into a neutral tone. I recommend you to add some information, so the article could be balanced a bit.--Caspian blue 13:51, 30 May 2009 (UTC)
 * I tagged the obesity section with POV-section since the concern here is too grave, but anyone who does not agree with me can revert it any time.--Caspian blue 19:28, 30 May 2009 (UTC)

 * How about removing the sentence "When Voigt was replaced by another singer for the role as Ariadne at Covent Garden in 2004, her weight became a heated issue in popular media." altogether from the lead? -- Klein zach  05:49, 31 May 2009 (UTC)
 * I do not mind about the removal. The modified sentence was just to mitigate the previous sentence's shocking effect in the intro.--Caspian blue 05:55, 31 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Good, how about also changing the heading "The "Covent Garden incident"" to something neutral like 'Ariadne, London 2004'? -- Klein zach  06:05, 31 May 2009 (UTC)
 * I do think that your suggestion sounds good. However, as you can see, I'm not a native English speaker, so I'm reluctant to paraphrase sentences written by English speakers unless those are extremely fallacious. But I will modify the title right now. --Caspian blue 06:14, 31 May 2009 (UTC)
 * OK. Let me know any time you want a native English speaker check. -- Klein zach  06:57, 31 May 2009 (UTC)

One minor point, I think the link to Signy for Sieglinde will be rather confusing for readers. I think it would be better to take this out. -- Klein zach  23:39, 31 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Got it, now finally I made the article eligible for DYK (except the matter regarding her obesity). Could you check my grammar? Thanks.--Caspian blue 00:14, 1 June 2009 (UTC)
 * I've had a go but it's still not great. In particular I think the connection between 'It ain't over til the fat lady sings' and Wagner is nonsense and the whole section needs cutting. -- Klein zach  01:12, 1 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Thank you for the proofreading but I still think my writing should be trimmed more. As for the obesity section, I'm gonna downsize it to half if I can add 3000 characters more to the article. I don't think the whole section should be out since the case was very notable. I became to acknowledge her with the incident because I did not listen Strauss and Wagner's music until then. Ben Harpner's weight is also comparable Then, the section can be balanced and go closer to neutral, I hope.--Caspian blue 01:23, 1 June 2009 (UTC)

 * I trimmed off 1700 characters from the section (more than 1/3), but it still need to be tighten up and I need to be busy adding that amount of information.-_-;; --Caspian blue 04:07, 1 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Thank you, folks, for the editing help and proof-reading. Bearian (talk) 12:25, 1 June 2009 (UTC) P.S. The resulting product is, perhaps unintentionally, very funny. Bearian (talk) 12:27, 1 June 2009 (UTC)
 * May I ask you why you think the current article looks funny to you? We've been discussing "serious issues".--Caspian blue 14:37, 1 June 2009 (UTC)
 * CaspianBlue, many of your comments on this talk page are English idioms for losing weight - "trimming down," "tighten up," "cut" and the like. Bearian (talk) 17:40, 1 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Ah, I see. I said "downsizing", "balancing" too. :-) -Caspian blue 17:47, 1 June 2009 (UTC)
 * I'm so glad you have a sense of humor! LOL. Bearian (talk) 17:50, 1 June 2009 (UTC)
 * DYK is pretty funny itself — in a retro kind of way! -- Klein zach  23:51, 1 June 2009 (UTC)

This article is looking good, so I am signing off. Let me know if you want me to come back and look at anything. Best. -- Klein zach  06:30, 2 June 2009 (UTC)

Time inconsistency
So she was born in 1960, married at age 30, and divorced in 1995 after 7 years of marriage? Something's wrong here. Ntsimp (talk) 12:50, 4 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Maybe there is a possibility that the singer deducts her age to look younger, or the writer wrote incorrect information. I'm gonna send email to the writer.--Caspian blue

Update?
This article needs some updating, in particular in the section '2009 to 2010'. We find a couple instances of 'was set to sing' and one of 'will accompany'. Did those things happen or not? Perhaps the verb forms should be amended accordingly.HenryLarsen (talk) 10:43, 16 January 2016 (UTC)

Ari Freyr Skúlason

Ari Freyr Skúlason (born 14 May 1987) is an Icelandic professional footballer who plays as a left-back for Sylvia in Sweden. He previously played at senior level in Iceland and Belgium, and was also a youth player in the Netherlands. He made over 80 appearances for the Iceland national team.

Club career
Ari started his career at Valur. At sixteen, he went to SC Heerenveen in the Netherlands where he spent two seasons. He was released at the end of 2005 when he could not make the first team. He returned to Valur where he played half a season before signing with Allsvenskan club BK Häcken. Although relegated to the Swedish second tier, the club competed in the UEFA Cup qualifiers the following year because of their fair play ranking. Häcken managed to progress into the main competition after Ari scored the winning goal against Scottish club Dunfermline Athletic Häcken failed to gain promotion, and he signed with Allsvenskan club GIF Sundsvall at the end of the year. At the start of the 2012 season he became captain of the club.

On 11 July 2013, it was revealed that Ari had signed a contract with Danish Superliga club OB for the start of 2014 when his contract with Sundsvall expired. On 19 July it was announced that the clubs had reached an agreement for his semi-immediate transfer. On 27 July he played his last game for Sundsvall, scoring two free-kick goals in a 3–3 draw against GAIS.

On 18 July 2016, Ari officially joined Belgian-side K.S.C. Lokeren Oost-Vlaanderen.

On 31 March 2021, Swedish club IFK Norrköping, announced that they had signed Ari. After three seasons at the club, Ari initially announced his retirement on 2 November 2023, however, on 12 January 2024, IF Sylvia, another Norrköping team who play in the Swedish fourth tier, announced they had signed Ari.

International career

After being capped at various youth levels he got to make his debut for the Icelandic national team in 2009 against Iran. In 2012, he started getting more frequent callups from new national team manager Lars Lagerbäck. Despite Ari having been playing as a midfielder for his club side he was nonetheless picked in the Iceland squad as a left-back and has been the first-choice left-back in the national team during most of the 2014 World Cup qualifiers. Consequently, Ari felt that he needed to change his position at club level and asked to be signed as a left-back when he was sold in July 2013, so he could play that position at club level to be able to hold his place as the first-choice left-back in the Iceland squad, despite the fact that he has been praised as a central playmaker of high quality.

He was selected for EURO 2016. He started in all of Iceland's five matches, helping the national team go to the quarter-finals in their very first European championship.

In May 2018 he was named in Iceland's 23-man squad for the 2018 FIFA World Cup in Russia.

Ari retired from the national team in November 2021. He played 83 games.

Playing position
Even though his most common position is in central midfield Ari can also play as a winger and played as a full-back with the Iceland national team. After transferring from Sweden to Denmark in 2013 he stated in an interview that he had asked to be signed as a left-back to cement his place as the starting left-back in the national team.

Classes of Pilot Certificates
In the United States, there are many different Pilot Certificates:
 * Student Pilot - This is issued at the time you pass your first medical exam and simply identifies you as a student.
 * Sport Pilot - This does not require a medical exam and allows very restricted use.
 * Recreational Pilot - This limits pilots in the number of passengers they can carry and distance they can travel.
 * Private Pilot - Pilots may travel any distance and may carry passengers, but may not receive payment.
 * Commercial Pilot - Pilots may receive payment.
 * Airline Transport Pilot - Airline pilots.

For each class of certificate (except Student Pilot) the pilot must pass a knowledge test on the computer, an oral examination by a Designated Examiner, and a flight test by a Designated Examiner. For each class of certificate (except Sport Pilot) the pilot must also pass a medical examination. Sport pilots are allowed to certify themselves as fit to fly.

Pilot Ratings
Pilots certificates contain ratings that specify which category aircraft the pilot is certificated to fly. Aircraft categories include: – Single Engine Rating (Included in Private Pilot lisence) - Multi-Engine Rating - Instrument Rating Your certificate only gives flying privileges for the category aircraft you trained for. To be able to fly other categories, you must also get the training and take the tests appropriate for them.
 * Airplane
 * Rotorcraft (helicopters and autogyros)
 * Glider
 * Lighter than Air (blimps and balloons)
 * Powered-lift
 * Powered parachute
 * Weight-shift-control aircraft

Training
It is not necessary to have any certificate to begin flying lessons. After some ground school and some flying lessons, it will be necessary to get your Student Pilot certificate before you can fly solo. For any certificate other than Sport Pilot, your temporary Student Pilot Certificate will be issued by a Medical Examiner when you get your Medical Exam.

You then continue with lessons until you achieve your Sport, Recreational, or Private pilot certificate.

All these are done in a flying school, under the guidelines of the FAA, Federal Aviation Administration. The rules with relation to certifications are listed in the FAR Part 61. The FAR has other rules and regulations laid down as well, applicable for a student pilot to a airline pilot as well.

The Recreational Pilot's does not allow you to make flights more than a radius of 50 nautical miles of the airport you take of from and you cannot carry passengers. A private pilot does not have such restrictions but cannot carry passengers for income.

The actual rules and regulations are as follows.

FAR61
subpart C
 * 1) REDIRECT 61.8161.81 	Applicability.

 * 1) REDIRECT 61.8161.83 	Eligibility requirements for student pilots.

 * 1) REDIRECT 61.8161.85 	Application.

 * 1) REDIRECT 61.8161.87 	Solo requirements for student pilots.

The game's protagonist Raikoh Minamoto (based on Minamoto no Yorimitsu) was born into a clan of executioners under the emperor's command. Raikoh was given the order to kill his own father. He couldn't bring himself to do it, so he stole Soul Shrine, his clan's ancestral sword, and fled the capital city of Kyoto. Upon his departure, the Great Seal separating the demon and human worlds was broken. Kyoto was all but leveled and a wave of demons appeared. Raikoh was almost killed by the flood of darkness, but a Princess banished to the netherworld saved him and held him in a state between life and death. The Princess gave him a new body in exchange for his services. She would allow him to repent for his sins as an assassin by saving the world from the demons unleashed upon it. Raikoh begins his quest to restore the Great Seal and stop the one responsible for its collapse.

After purging some Yasha Ravens from the outskirts of the former Imperial Capital, Raikoh is tasked by the Princess with restoring the four Essences; elemental ki that will help restore the Great Seal. Raikoh travels the landscape and restores the Essence of Gold, the Essence of Water, the Essence of Wood, and the Essence of Fire. At the Princess's behest, he then begins the ritual to complete the Great Seal, but is banished to the underworld by a mysterious figure.

In the underworld, Raikoh travels through mirror versions of the areas he has already traversed, and collects eight Soul Cords needed to ascend back to the land of the living. He then travels up the immensely tall Spirit Tower in order to return, but is chased by a large Orochi hydra. Upon his return to the living world, Raikoh travels to the citadel of Lord Michizane, now identified as the man who broke the Great Seal by the Princess, and the man who banished Raikoh to the Underworld. Raikoh frees the captured Essences from Michizane before dueling him above the clouds. Michizane is defeated, and Raikoh plays a flute at his gravestone.

On a second playthrough, it is revealed at the end of the game that the Princess knew Michizane intimately before the Great Seal was broken. She also appears either to vanish to parts unknown or to die herself; the nature of her departure is ambiguous.

Gameplay
Otogi is a single-player action-adventure game played from a third-person view. While Raikoh is a fixed character, his health can be upgraded across the course of the game, and his stats altered by equipping various weapons, magic, or accessories. Weapons are divided into four categories: swords, heavy weapons, twin swords, and staves. Similarly, there are four schools of magic loosely based on the Four Symbols: Dragon (wind), Phoenix (fire), Butterfly (Water), and Chimera (Lightning).

Health in Otogi is represented by a series of Health Orbs. Within the top most Orb, health lost will regenerate, but if all of the health in an Orb is lost, it shatters and no longer regenerates. Orbs can be restored by finding items in the landscape, and health can be regained within an orb by slaying an enemy.

Magic Points in Otogi are an extremely important resource. While they are used to cast spells, they are also used to keep Raikoh's undead body alive, and so slowly deplete over time. When all Magic Points are depleted, Raikoh can no longer regenerate health, and slowly loses health until he either dies or finds more Magic Points (either from an item or by defeating an enemy).

Most pieces of the environment in Otogi can be destroyed by Raikoh's heavy weapon attacks, or by strong enemies. This was relatively rare for the period, being seen in few titles, such as Red Faction.

Reception
The game received "favorable" reviews according to video game review aggregator Metacritic. In Japan, Famitsu gave it a score of 31 out of 40.

The editors of GameSpot named Otogi the best Xbox game of August 2003, and nominated the game for their 2003 "Best Game No One Played" award, which ultimately went to Amplitude.

Retrospectively, Mike Zeller of USgamer stated that FromSoftware's Dark Souls series "owes a debt" to Otogi and that much of the Souls series DNA comes from Otogi, including number of similar gameplay and story elements that FromSoftware had previously used in Otogi before the Souls series.

Other media
Famitsu released 5 promotional prize Otogi X Britney DVDs, all containing a demo of Otogi, two trailers for the game, two Britney Spears music videos, and audio tracks. The two trailers for Otogi were accompanied by Britney Spears' 2002 single "Overprotected".

About learning a report by Demos study group

Why is this project needed?
If the Wikiverstiy is to succeed then it will need to develop effective methods of learning. This project will help identify some of these methods.

What is this project about?
This project will look at the implications for Wikiversity of "About learning" a report from Demos (a rightwing British think tank). This report looks at how English and Welsh secondary school pupils could benefit from learning to learn projects involving teachers working with cognitive scientists to make the most of the latest advances in research and practice.

Who is this project for?
This project is for anyone who is interested in how to improve learning.

Active participants
Mystictim 20:39, 16 December 2006 (UTC)

When will this project take place?
The initial phase of this project will be conducted during January 2007.

How will this project be conducted?
If you would like to take part in this project please download the document About learning. The main strand of this project will be a critical reading of this document.

Documents
About learning

Summary of the About learning report
There are 9 sections to this report.

The challenge: making students more effective at learning
Begins with a plea for teachers and cognitive scientists to work together to improve the practice of teaching and learning.

Then makes the claim that if the learning skills and attitudes children develop at home are enhanced by their school experience they will tend to succeed were as if this doesn't happen then they will end up paying a personal and social price resulting in disadvantage.

Then claims that no formal system exists to help teachers develop and use an explicit, elaborate and expert view of learning.

Goes on to say that cognitive and social scientists can provide a framework for this as seen in such publications as How people learn: brain, mind, experience and school.

However goes on to say teachers have been exposed to various psychological models of learning and have divergent class room experiences. This has lead to a lack of a common vocabulary to develop and share knowledge about learning with their peers and students. This has lead to a range of teaching methods being used in a rather arbitrary manner.

The report then says that time is right for teachers, educationists and cognitive scientists to come together to improve this situation.

The report claims this has already begun with a strong emphasis on learning to learn.

Finally ends session on a cautionary note in that not all of these schemes for improving learning have a strong evidence base.

Is it possible to learn how to learn?
Difficulty with a common sense view of learning and a confusion of terms used to mean the same thing and the same terms used to mean different things in the literature on this subject.

Then quotes from of the Teaching and Learning Research Programme’s Learning How to Learn Project
 * "learning to learn is not a single entity or skill, but a family of learning practices that enhance one's capacity to learn."

The evidence for recent developments
Two types of evidence, scientific research and practice based. "It is when the two kinds of evidence are mutually supportive that the evidence base for a practice is most powerful" Then gives two examples Assessment for learning and Cognitive acceleration along with a more eclectic approach from Profesor Guy Claxton.

Then lists the 5 Rs developed by Claxton with The Campaign for learning
 * Remembering - the ability to recall
 * Resilience - the habit of persisting with difficulty
 * Resourcefulness - the ability to deploy a variety of learning strategies
 * Reflection - the disposition to think about one's own learning and about oneself as a developing learner
 * Reciprocity or sociability - the ability to learn well in the company of others

A second Claxton formulation the seven dimensions of learning power from the Lifelong Learning Foundation is then given
 * Changing and learning - a sense that I can change and continue to learn
 * Critical curiosity - getting below the surface, asking questions
 * Meaning making - making a bigger picture by fitting information together
 * Creativity - finding new ways to approach information and situations
 * Resilience - being able to resist distraction from inside and outside and to tolerate the feelings of learning
 * Strategic awareness - planning, resourcing and using learning preferences to complete a task
 * Learning relationships - being able to work alone and in collaboration.

Then goes on to warn about commercial schemes that have little scientific or practice evidence to support their claims.

Gives example of various learning styles approaches currently very popular. However limited evidence either scientifically or from class room practice to support their claims.

Then says that the best practitioners use learning styles to expand the variety of leaning activities and encourage learners to explore a range of approaches to learning that vary from situation to situation and individual to individual. However learning styles often end up being seen as fix innate attributes of learners. This leads tutors to target specific types of learning activities at given individuals limiting their learning strategies.

Then points out that as a growing need to personalise learning and learning styles could be a useful tool if there was evidence to show that they are in fact effective. This needs to come from both the scientific community and practice based evidence.

What we know: the evidence from science
This section draws mainly on How people learn: brain, mind, experience and school has to say on learner-centred, knowledge-centred, assessment-centred and community-centred learning environments.

Learner-centred learning environments accepts that learners already have a wealth of knowledge, skills, attitudes and beliefs that they bring to any learning situation. They will rely on these as the starting position for any new learning. If the tutor is starting from a very different position then learning will become difficult and ineffective. Knowledge-centred environments

Talk:Demonstrations in support of Donald Trump

Explain
I started this page as a parallel Protests against Donald Trump (which was redirected from its original title Demonstrations and protests against Donald Trump,) as a place to let new articles on pro-Trump demonstration begin life (they can be moved to mainspace if tehy attain notability) and, quite frankly, as a plausibe redirect target for articles like Trump Unity Bridge and Mother of All Rallies in order to give editros at AfD a third option (something between keep and delete.E.M.Gregory (talk) 17:13, 20 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Thanks. While I don't wish to see the Trump Unity Bridge and Mother of All Rallies articles merged into this one, I do think this serves as a helpful and necessary companion to Protests against Donald Trump. --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 22:45, 20 September 2017 (UTC)

Patriot Prayer
Should any of the other events mentioned Patriot Prayer be included in this article? --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 01:40, 23 September 2017 (UTC)

My contribution to the Article
Hello Wikipedia family. I have added more information to the article in relation to what happened before and after the two protests. I hope that readers will find this one too useful.Black thunder9 (talk) 04:40, 21 September 2018 (UTC)

 * you've made a bit of a mess and confused two rallies. The 100,000 number was the anti-Trump protest. The pro-Trump rally was not a big rally as it had small numbers. The people with hats were a small group at the anti-Trump rally. I don't know whnat "Efforts by the police to keep the matches were futile as distinct thousands of protesters (President Trump Supporters)" means. "futile as distinct thousands of protestors" makes little sense, and calling supporters protestors is confusing as we've already mention a protest march against Trump. The protestors were from the Free Tommy event. Nevermind, it's too close to the original text so I'm deleting it as copyvio. There's still some poor English and the claim that " The pro-Trump protesters wore Make America Great Again hats chanting “USA” as they also supported Tommy Robinson." were at the pro-Trump rally which is just wrong. The source is about the anti-Trump protest rally and says "Wearing Make America Great Again hats, the small group chanted "USA" and also voiced their support for English far-right activist Tommy Robinson." Your edit made it sound as though 100,000 people were wearing the hat. The man using the fake name was also at the anti-Trump rally. Doug Weller  talk 11:51, 21 September 2018 (UTC)
 * i think it's you who got it all wrong. Please read this source again Donald Trump's UK visit draws thousands of protesters and supporters in London) (http://www.abc.net.au/news/2018-07-14/brits-turn-up-in-hordes-to-march-at-donald-trump-protest/9993820 and you will realize that you misunderstood the article. The article talks about both groups-pro and anti-Trump demonstraters. The man with a hat was in the pro-Trump group. Please see their images and captions in the article for your consideration. Thank you.Black thunder9 (talk) 08:59, 25 September 2018 (UTC)

Discussion about a merge into this article.
Recently, Protests against Joe Biden was created. A merge proposal was added so this is the relevant discussion for that merge proposal.

 * Oppose. Even though the sources say “Pro-trump supporters” the protests (January 5-6) are against the election of Joe Biden to the office of U.S. President. Now that the election is over, most protests are going to be against Joe Biden/the election. Elijahandskip (talk) 17:08, 5 January 2021 (UTC)
 * The sources you yourself cited explicitly describe the event as a "pro-Trump protest." Unfortunately, you're attempting to reject and deny what your own sources say. NorthBySouthBaranof (talk) 17:12, 5 January 2021 (UTC)
 * The National Guard has been mobilized to Washington ahead of pro-Trump demonstrations planned this week as Congress convenes to certify the election results. That's what the NBC News source says. That you disagree with this source is not relevant. NorthBySouthBaranof (talk) 17:14, 5 January 2021 (UTC)
 * I am not actually. The sources also say “ The protests coincide with Wednesday’s congressional vote expected to certify the Electoral College results,” (Quote from AP News).  I still stand by my oppose to the merge.  {Also a slight formality I guess, there is an article for Protests against Donald Trump, so eventually this article’s title will be used even if it is merged. Elijahandskip (talk) 17:17, 5 January 2021 (UTC)}
 * Also just added this (USA Today) source to the article which directly related the protests to the election loss, aka against Joe Biden winning the office of US President. Elijahandskip (talk) 17:29, 5 January 2021 (UTC)

 * Merge to 2020 United States election protests – not yet a notable topic (possibly not even an existent one), but 2020 United States election protests is a more obvious target. – Arms & Hearts (talk) 17:36, 5 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Merge to 2020 United States election protests. According to the articles provided as references, these are clearly about the election. — Naddruf (talk ~ contribs) 17:40, 5 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Merge to 2020 United States election protests. As Naddruf said, according to the sources used in this article, the protests are about the election, not about one candidate or another. • • rslashthinkong (User page) (User talk page) 17:47, 5 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Merge to 2020 United States election protests: Echoing Naddruf, the provided sources state that the protests are about the election, not a particular candidate. Thus, a merge and redirect to the election protests article would be the appropriate course of action. A. Randomdude0000 (talk) 20:12, 5 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Merge to 2020 United States election protests: As previously stated, its protests about the election results, not generic protests against a president or candidate. Albertaont (talk) 20:14, 5 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Merge to 2020 United States election protests per above. A redirect can be made for "Protests against Joe Biden". <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 22:11, 5 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Merge to 2020 United States election protests as above. There have not been enough "anti-Biden" protests, or widely enough reported, to justify a separate article. -- MelanieN (talk) 02:20, 6 January 2021 (UTC)
 * P.S. It should be noted for context that the "protests against Joe Biden" article was created just today, Jan. 5, by User:Elijahandskip. Also note that the protests that the DC authorities are gearing up for are from pro-Trump activists; no source calls them, or their protests, "anti-Biden", just pro-Trump. So I suppose the article could be merged with "demonstrations in support of Donald Trump" since the two are synonymous. But I would still prefer a merge with the more general 2020 election article. -- MelanieN (talk) 02:30, 6 January 2021 (UTC)

 * (Creator) Support Merge to 2020 United States election protests per above. Elijahandskip (talk) 04:06, 6 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Merge to 2020 United States election protests. This is barely an article and isn't notable enough to stand on its own. — Czello 17:30, 6 January 2021 (UTC)

Cookbook:Peanut Curry Sauce

| Sauces

Enjoy this peanut curry sauce as a dip or sauce on most any grilled meat, or thin it with water to marinate or use as a dressing.

Ingredients

 * ¾ cup (about 170 ml) roasted peanuts (unsalted)
 * 4 cups (about 1 L) coconut milk (unsweetened)
 * 2 tbsp (about 30 ml) red curry paste
 * 2 tbsp (about 30 ml) sugar
 * 3 tbsp (about 45 ml) lemon juice
 * 3 tsp (about 15 ml) fish sauce

Procedure

 * 1) Chop or grind peanuts into a fine meal.
 * 2) Heat half the coconut milk in a medium saucepan on high heat, and add red curry paste. Stir until curry paste is dissolved and then continue to heat on high for 10–12 minutes (not stirring) until the oil from the coconut milk has risen to the top.
 * 3) Decrease heat to medium-high and add ground peanuts. Stir and add the rest of the coconut milk, bring to a full boil then decrease heat, and add the sugar, lemon juice and fish sauce.
 * 4) Continue to cook (stirring occasionally) for 15–20 minutes, until the sauce has thickened and the oil has risen to the surface again.
 * 5) Take off heat and let set for about ½ hour. Stir to blend in the oil that has risen, the sauce should be not quite as thick as peanut butter. If it seems too thick add about a teaspoon of water or coconut milk.

Battle of Bloody Gulch

The Battle of Bloody Gulch took place around the Manoir de Donville or Hill 30 (U.S. Army designation), approximately 1 mi southwest of Carentan in Normandy, France, on June 13, 1944.

It involved elements of the German 17th SS Panzergrenadier Division and 6th Fallschirmjäger Regiment, and the American 501st, 502nd and 506th Parachute Infantry Regiments (PIR) of the 101st Airborne Division, reinforced by elements of the 2nd Armored Division and the 29th Infantry Division.

During the battle, the manor house of Manoir de Donville was the headquarters of the German forces. American soldiers nicknamed the road running past the manor "Bloody Gulch", after a place mentioned in the popular western movie Destry Rides Again.

Battle
When the 101st Airborne entered the town of Carentan on June 12, 1944, after heavy fighting on the two previous days, they met relatively light resistance. The bulk of the surviving German defenders (from the 6th Fallschirmjäger Regiment) had withdrawn to the southwest the previous night after a heavy Allied naval and artillery bombardment. Both sides realized the importance of the town: for the Americans, it was a link between Utah Beach and Omaha Beach and would provide a base for further attacks deeper into German-occupied France. For the Germans, recapturing Carentan would be the first step towards driving a wedge between the two American landing beaches, severely disrupting and possibly even repulsing the Allied invasion.

The remnants of the 6th Fallschirmjäger resupplied and were reinforced by assault guns and panzergrenadiers of the 17th SS Panzergrenadier Division on the night of June 12–13. The combined force counterattacked northeast towards Carentan at dawn on June 13, just as the 506th and 501st PIR were attacking southwest to enlarge the American defensive perimeter around the town. The 506th took the brunt of the attack, and by 10:30 a.m., the outnumbered and outgunned paratroopers were pushed almost back to the outskirts of the town.

Under intense German fire, F Company of the 506th's left flank fell back to the next hedgerow under the company commander’s orders, which had not been cleared with battalion. This exposed D Company's right flank. That company also fell back, leaving E Company all alone. Cpt. Thomas P. Mulvey, the commanding officer of F Company, was relieved on the spot by the battalion commander.

When a German tank attempted to penetrate the left flank, two soldiers (according to Band of Brothers, they were Lt. Harry Welsh and Pvt. McGrath) of E Company successfully destroyed it with a bazooka. Meanwhile, battalion headquarters stopped the retreat of D and F companies, pushing them forward 150 m to cover the left flank. The 2nd Battalion of the 502nd PIR took up positions to the right of the 506th, but by 1:00 p.m. they too had suffered many casualties, and the German attack was on the verge of breaking through their defenses.

At this critical point, sixty tanks from Combat Command A of the 2nd Armored Division and accompanied by infantry of the 29th Division, counterattacked southwest from Carentan at 4:30 p.m., inflicting severe casualties on the Germans and forcing them to withdraw with the loss of four tanks. The American victory led to the linkup of forces from Utah and Omaha Beaches, creating a secure lodgement area for further American operations.

The actions of the 507th Parachute Infantry Regiment during the Graignes incident (better known as the Battle of Graignes) south-east of Carentan, played a part in the successful capture of Carentan and the Battle of Bloody Gulch. Had the mis-dropped paratroopers of the 507th not stopped the advance of the 17th SS Panzergrenadier Division, it is possible that the German division could have made it to Carentan before the 101st Airborne Division. Furthermore, the 507th caused the Germans significant losses in the few days that they held Graignes and this likely influenced the Battle of Bloody Gulch.

In popular culture
Band of Brothers, an HBO miniseries, features the battle in its third episode, "Carentan", portraying the 506th PIR's part in the battle.

The battle was also featured in the first two Brothers in Arms video games.

HD 80606 and HD 80607

HD 80606 and HD 80607 are two stars comprising a binary star system. They are approximately 217 light-years away in the constellation of Ursa Major. Both stars orbit each other at an average distance of 1,200 astronomical units. The binary system is listed as Struve 1341 in the Struve Catalogue of Double Stars; however, this designation is not in wide use and the system is usually referred to by the HD designations of its constituent stars. An extrasolar planet has been confirmed to orbit HD 80606 in a highly elliptical orbit.

Planetary system
The variable radial velocity of HD 80606 was first noticed in 1999 from observations with the 10-m Keck 1 telescope at the W. M. Keck Observatory in Hawaii by the G-Dwarf Planet Search, a survey of nearly 1,000 nearby G dwarfs to identify extrasolar planet candidates. The star was then followed up by the Geneva Extrasolar Planet Search team using the ELODIE spectrograph mounted on the 1.93-m telescope at the Haute-Provence Observatory. The discovery of HD 80606 b was announced on April 4, 2001. Its orbit is misaligned with the star's rotation at 53 degrees. Additional studies using the Spitzer Space Telescope in the infrared, and the Very Large Array in the millimeter radio, have shown that the highly eccentric planet 'b' orbiting HD 80606 grazes the parent star at its closest passage to produce difficult-to-detect stellar lobing, severe 'space weather', aurorae and other non-thermal activity.

At the time, its orbit was the most eccentric orbit of any extrasolar planet known. It has an eccentricity of 0.9336, comparable to that of Comet Halley in the Solar System. The eccentricity may be a result of the Kozai mechanism, which would occur if the planet's orbit is significantly inclined to that of the binary stars. This conclusion is reinforced by the detection of the misalignment, an expected result of the Kozai mechanism.

In a simulation of a ten-million-year span, the planet "sweeps clean" most test particles within 1.75 AU of HD 80606. The 8:1 resonance hollows out another Kirkwood gap at 1.9 AU. There cannot be any habitable planets in this system. Also, observation has ruled out planets heavier than 0.7 Jupiter mass with a period of one year or less.
