Michał Weinzieher

Michał Weinzieher (1 June 1903, in Będzin, Russian Empire, Polish lands of the Russian Partition – April 1944, in Kraków) was a Polish art historian and art critic, museologist, and separately also a writer on constitutional law (known for his studies of the thought of Leon Petrazycki). He also published several pieces of travel reportage from France, England, and the Soviet Union.

Life
Michał Weinzieher was born on 1 June 1903 in the town of Będzin, in the Dąbrowa Basin (Zagłębie Dąbrowskie) of the western Lesser Poland geographical area, about 13 kilometres south-west of Katowice and about 88 km north-west of Kraków. The town counted 30,124 inhabitants in 1901. His father, Dr. Salomon Weinzieher (1869–1943?), a physician and director of a regional hospital, was one of the most distinguished citizens of his town and its province and a member of Parliament (including, for a time, chairman of its Jewish caucus). Weinzieher had also a younger brother, (Jan) Jakub Weinzieher (1908–1940), a physician like his father and a lieutenant (podporucznik) of the Polish Air Force, who would perish in the Katyn Massacre perpetrated by the Soviet secret police. Their father was murdered in the Holocaust after being deported from the Będzin Ghetto to Auschwitz concentration camp on 1 August 1943 (other sources indicate he was murdered in the Ghetto).

A teenager during the early period of the Second Polish Republic, Weinzieher fought in the Polish–Soviet War in 1920 as a volunteer in the Polish Army (Wojsko Polskie II RP). He was educated at Warsaw University, his father's alma mater, where he earned a law degree. A frequent contributor to the Nasz Przegląd newspaper, he served as the director of the Jewish Society for the Propagation of the Fine Arts (Żydowskie Towarzystwo Krzewienia Sztuk Pięknych) in Warsaw until 1939, a city where he maintained friendship with the poet Bruno Jasieński. In his art criticism he emphasized the role of ideology and "guiding principles" over "sterile objectivism" and impartiality, including in the organizing of art exhibitions which ought to follow the same principles if they were truthfully to render the profiles of such painters as Picasso and Matisse. Weinzieher took a lively interest in all aspects of life of the Jewish community in the interbellum Poland, participating for example in the organizational activities of the Jewish Sightseeing Society (Żydowskie Towarzystwo Krajoznawcze) and other similar bodies. He was also the director of the Historical Museum in Lwów (Muzeum Historyczne we Lwowie, now within the territory of Ukraine).

During the Second World War, in the early part of 1940, he married the well-known poet Zuzanna Ginczanka in Lwów, then newly occupied by the Soviet Union, where both sought shelter from the Germans. Following Nazi Germany's attack on the Soviet Union of 22 June 1941 and the Nazi occupation of Lwów later the same month, he moved with his wife to Kraków in September 1942, where he disguised his identity by assuming the pseudonym Michał Danilewicz. However, he was eventually arrested by the Gestapo early in 1944, and subsequently perished at their hands. On 6 April 1944 there appeared pasted on the walls of Kraków an announcement issued by the "Summary Court-martial of the Security Police" (Standgericht der Sicherheitspolizei) listing 112 names of people sentenced to death: the first 33 names were those on whom the sentence of death had already been carried out, the rest were those awaiting execution. Michał Weinzieher's name is among the latter. Although the precise date of his death is uncertain, it is known that he had predeceased his wife, who was also murdered by the Nazis several months later.

The surname is sometimes misspelled "Weinziher" in Polish usage.

Talk:History of Ireland through Song

Intent
I had an idea to create this project, and so I went ahead and started it. I know exactly (more or less) what I have in mind for it, but I'm open to suggestions, and anyone is welcome to add additional relevant songs. When I have time, I'm going to add several more, as well as details on the historical relevance of each song. The Jade Knight 02:29, 25 October 2006 (UTC)

English Rebel Songs, 1381 - 1914
Worth checking out are the tracks on Chumbawamba's "English Rebel Songs, 1381-1914" (apparently it's 1381 - 1984 now, they've added something that wasn't on the CD I had). "The Cutty Wren" and "Smashing of the Van" spring to mind immediately, but I haven't listened to the cd in a while, there may be others. Good luck!

Another idea would to be have a timeline tagged and linked to actual historic events and persons, that correlates to song topics. Also, I do not see a way to teach Irish history through song without also teaching English history. The two cultures are intimately entwined and you can not teach one without the other. I am all for the Gailec(spelling?) content as well. I am looking forward to developments within this wiki.<IP_ADDRESS> 20:09, 11 December 2006 (UTC)Shane Parnell<IP_ADDRESS> 20:09, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

 * That could be a very interesting project - in fact, all of this could join up very nicely, showing Ireland's relationship with England, the United Kingdom, and the British empire, the "troubles" of Northern Ireland, and, of course, before the strategic settlement of Ireland began. As you say, this page can link to many others about personages and events of Ireland's history, and other strands of national history and folklore, including England's. There's much potential to really make this a rich and colourful way to explore history - possibly to make it seem more alive. Also, as you say, to make this a way for people to learn language, Gaelic or otherwise. Fascinating! Cormaggio talk 22:00, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Should we turn this into "History of the British Isles through Song"? The Jade Knight 06:20, 8 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Possibly - though we'll probably need to remain specific - Ireland's musical history is incredibly rich. So, I'm thinking that we could have an umbrella learning project (ie British Isles) that then incorporates resources by country (which will possibly themselves need further splitting). What say you? Cormaggio beep 10:53, 8 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Good idea. I wonder what anyone else thinks.  The Jade Knight 03:34, 12 February 2007 (UTC)

Recording
One way to ensure that songs are available under a free licence is to organise the recording of them yourself (ensuring, of course, that the songs themselves are non-copyright, and that all the people involved in recording the songs agree to these terms of use). Perhaps people in Topic:Audio Engineering would like to help out - I might do so myself if/when I get around to building up some equipment.. Cormaggio talk 22:00, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
 * This would work well for older songs. Alternatively, if we could get permission to use copyrighted works, they could be hosted off Wikiversity, but linked from here.  In my case, I don't have enough musical talent to engage in such a task.  The Jade Knight 06:18, 8 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Copyright is certainly a problem - and I'm not even sure what "older songs" are free to be recorded and released under a free licence. (This alone would be a worthwhile project to undertake.) It might be worthwhile contacting the Irish Traditional Music archive for both the question of what we can record, and what copyrighted resources are available to us. I'll volunteer to do this, unless someone else has any objections/ideas. Cormaggio beep 10:53, 8 February 2007 (UTC)
 * In the US, a good rule of thumb is that anything over 100 years old is probably fair game. Otherwise, you'd have to find the exact date of publication, and compare that to copyright law… and I think it'd be great to have you do this.  Thanks for volunteering!  The Jade Knight 03:33, 12 February 2007 (UTC)

Gaelic Songs
Should there be an option to include songs in Gaelic (or even other languages) for ambitious students?

Response: I do think that there should be a seperate option for these languages. I know that I am very interested in the Gaelic language and was also interested in learning to speak it and write as well. -

 * I think it would be good to potentially include materials in other languages, particularly the languages of the British Isles. Thanks for your response, though; it's good to know that there's some interest in this.  The Jade Knight 03:36, 12 February 2007 (UTC)

Brief Irish History
8000 B.C First humans arrive in Ireland most likely via a land bridge.

600 Christianity becomes dominant religion of Ireland.

800 First recorded Viking raid.

852 Viking settlement of Dublin founded.

1167 British begin to conquer parts of Eastern Ireland.

1348 Black Plague reaches Ireland. Because the Anglo-Normans lived mainly in towns, they were hit hardest causing the shrinking of Britain's power to an area known as "The Pale".

1532 Henry VIII breaks with the Vatican. While Wales and Scotland accepted Protestantism, Ireland remained Catholic causing the loss of royal respect for the Irish people.

1583 British establish complete control of Ireland.

1642 After a rebellion, Confederate Ireland is established; this home rule lasted only seven years.

1801 The Act of Union established the British Isles as a single entity; the United Kingdom.

1845 Irish Potato Famine; killed between 500,000 and 1,000,000 people.

1916 Irish war of Independence begins

1922 The Anglo-Irish Treaty is signed creating the Irish Free State. Also in this year, the Irish Civil War over whether to accept the treaty begins.

1937 New constitution enacted.

1949 Ireland officially leaves the Commonwealth of Nations.

1980's Birth of the "Celtic Tiger" (Ireland's economy, which is the strongest in Europe)

 * Thanks for that! This will help give us a framework to put things into.  The Jade Knight 08:15, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

There are there are some additions and amendments I would suggest to this framework. Much of Irish music (and history) is set around politics and rebellion. As such it is worth adding in some significant dates. As a new contributor and given that this is off the top of my head, here I will add below rather than merge.

1690    Battle of the Boyne the final act in the civil war between James 2nd(?) who had been deposed from the English throne and William of Orange. This reverberates though Irish politics (and music) to this day.

1798   The rebellion of the United Irishmen - inspired in part by the French revolution. The theme of the French coming to the the aid of the Irish is a common theme in Gaelic poetry from this time and earlier.

1829 ?  Catholic Emancipation. This was a very important event in history signaling the end of the Penal Laws and is credited to Daniel O'Connell.

1848    The Young Irelanders rising. Robert Emmet considered the leading figure in the Young Irelanders appears in many Irish songs about the period.

1850-1900  During the post famine period the decline of Gaelic language continued. It had been illegal to use the language under the Penal Laws, but now as immigration was the goal, English was much more useful. Very interesting is how the music travelled. As a kid in Ireland I always wondered where the song the "Lakes of Ponchatrain" was set.

1916  The Easter Rising.

1918-22 The War of Independence. The War of Independence really began in 1918 when the majority of elected MPs elected in the election of that year set up an alternative parliment in Ireland.

1922-23  The civil war.

1990   The Celtic Tiger began in the 90s ... I would say 93 or thereabouts. The late 1970s and the entire 1980s got progressively more grim. I would suggest songs from this period should include Christy Moore's "Ordinary Man", Paul Brady "Hard Station", The Boomtown Rats "Rat Trap".

Songs of Uncertain Meaning
Anyone happen to know if Flogging Molly's "Rebels of the Sacred Heart" refers to a historical event? The Jade Knight 12:53, 18 September 2008 (UTC)

It is in reference to this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sacred_Heart I believe. From that I would extrapolate the song is a satire poking fun at religion "No ball or chain, no prison choky, we're the rebels of the sacred heart." Says to me: You don't have to lock us up, we are already imprisoned in our belief system. If it is a traditional Irish song it would have most likely been written during the time of the Irish Catholic Reformation http://www.google.com/search?client=safari&rls=en&q=Irish+catholic+reformation&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8 or more likely it is about the time when christianity first found its way to ireland http://www.yourirish.com/history/ancient/christianity/. Probably too late of an answer, but it was interesting to look up.

Wikipedia:WikiProject Biography/Peer review/Stephen Trigg/Archive 1

Stephen Trigg
This just failed a GA nomination and so I've worked on it some more, but honestly I think I'm too involved now to look on it objectively. Any feedback or criticisms welcome! plange 03:32, 11 August 2006 (UTC)

Yannismarou
Hmmm... You are a Trigg as well! Interesting! Very nice and well-sourced article. But I think you already know that. I'm not experienced in peer-review suggestions, but I'll try to make a few comments:

 * The most obvious thing first of all: It is not nice that there is no photo of Trigg. When I see the infobox, I'd like to have a photo of him and not of the county named in his honor.

 * I'd like to have a short explanation (half a sentence) of what is a Justice of the Peace. Of course you link it, but I'd like to go to Justice of the Peace just for further information and not for a simple explanation. Beyond that I feel bombarded with terminology concernig the political institutions and organization of Virginia. But I donot think there is much to be done about that. In any case, it is difficult for a non-American to follow a terminology such as Committee of Safety, Committee of Correspondence, Revolutionary Convention etc. A non-American gets tired, since he needs some further explanation about all these things.

 * "Trigg one of several appointed as its first Justice of the Peace,[4] and he also served as magistrate". Is there a verb missing here ("Trigg [was] one...") or my English is poor? It may well be the second, since I'm not a native speaker!

 * You mention twice that Stephen Trigg Logan was the law partner of Abraham Lincoln in Springfield. This repetition may be necessary, but when I first read the article I thought: "Oh! Come on now! I just read that a few lines before!"

 * I read in a template: "It is true than an unhappy Difference..." Is "than" correct?

I cannot find anything else!--Yannismarou 19:59, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

 * Thanks Yannismarou! I will work on your suggestions, I really appreciate it! Unfortunately one I won't be able to do anything about because I have been unsuccessful in finding a photo or portrait of him... :-( plange 20:15, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

 * Okay, I think I've addressed all your points! Thanks so much for the feedback! plange 22:18, 19 August 2006 (UTC)

RelHistBuff
Hi. I'd like to give some comments concerning the quotes in the quotation templates. I do not know about the rules on their usage, so I am making an assumption to give some opinions. Please excuse me and ignore my comments if there are existing rules!

 * The use of the quotation template is a bit disturbing while reading the article but that is my own personal opinion. However, my impression is that the template should be used to quote something that Stephen Trigg said or wrote (and only if it is something profound or noteworthy), not simply what a historian said. Normally the Virginia Webb Howard quote would be placed in a footnote and not as part of the main text.

 * The picture of Oconostota overlaps with the quotation of the letter from the colonists and it makes it look like Oconostota made the quote! Again, the use of the template does not seem appropriate here. I would put this in the footnotes as well.

 * The last two quotes from the references are dangerously close to peacock terms. It's true that they are referenced, but without sufficient context (as one could get by reading the original source), they appear disconnected from the article. I would recommend removing these or if they remain in the text, provide more context on the qualities that the quotes had noted about Trigg (i.e., his popularity, intelligence, physique, bravery, Indian-fighting abilities, etc.).

I hope this helps! RelHistBuff 12:01, 18 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Thanks! I got clarification on the usage of the quotation template and changed accordingly - I also took out the pic of Oconostota... I took out the last pull quote as I had reservations about it myself when I put it in, and so you just confirmed that it was a bad idea :-) Is the one that's left okay? It's not as peacocky sounding and seems to sum up his article. plange 22:50, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

 * It looks better overall. The final quote looks fine, at least for your article. I guess these things should be use sparingly. Seeing your use of the quotation template, I experimented with it myself by including a final quote (an obituary) at the end of the article I am working on, but afterwards I decided against its inclusion. The prominent appearance of the quote made it appear too much like pushing a POV. But in your case, it is quite modest. RelHistBuff 09:25, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

New Providence School District

The New Providence School District is a comprehensive community public school district serving students in pre-kindergarten through twelfth grade in New Providence in Union County, in the U.S. state of New Jersey. Students from the unincorporated community of Murray Hill within the borough attend the New Providence school facilities.

As of the 2018–19 school year, the district, comprising four schools, had an enrollment of 2,420 students and 183.8 classroom teachers (on an FTE basis), for a student–teacher ratio of 13.2:1.

The district is classified by the New Jersey Department of Education as being in District Factor Group "I", the second-highest of eight groupings. District Factor Groups organize districts statewide to allow comparison by common socioeconomic characteristics of the local districts. From lowest socioeconomic status to highest, the categories are A, B, CD, DE, FG, GH, I and J.

Awards and recognition
During the 2007-08 school year, New Providence Middle School was recognized with the National Blue Ribbon School Award of Excellence by the United States Department of Education, the highest award an American school can receive.

The district was selected as one of the top "100 Best Communities for Music Education in America 2005" by the American Music Conference.

The district's high school was the top-ranked public high school in New Jersey out of 328 schools statewide in New Jersey Monthly magazine's September 2012 cover story on the state's "Top Public High Schools", after being ranked 5th in 2010 out of 322 schools listed.

Schools
Schools in the district (with 2018–19 enrollment data from the National Center for Education Statistics ) are:
 * Elementary schools
 * Allen W. Roberts Elementary School with 702 students in grades PreK-6
 * Robyn Greenwald, principal
 * Salt Brook Elementary School with 650 students in grades K-6
 * Jean M. Drexinger, principal
 * Middle school
 * New Providence Middle School with 411 students in grades 7-8
 * Brian Henry, principal
 * High school
 * New Providence High School with 625 students in grades 9-12
 * Brian Henry, principal

The middle school and high school share the same building and some of the same facilities (art rooms, auditorium, east wing, west wing, gyms, music rooms, TV production room, cafeteria). A construction project add a new gym and classrooms.

School design
Allen W. Roberts School, built in 1962, was created in the style of a California high school; this means that students would have to venture outside in order to switch classes, go to the nurse, use the gym facility, etc. Unfortunately, the area does not have a climate that is ideal for this type of construction; most notably a wet and rainy fall, and occasional severe winters. In the early 1990s, a construction project was undertaken to transform the school from this style to be fully enclosed. Just recently, the open structure that connected the main building to the secondary building was closed with the addition of new classrooms.

Population and expansion crisis
New Providence used to have two other elementary schools, Hillview and Lincoln. Lincoln School was sold to the borough for $1 in 1980; the property was used for a new municipal center. Hillview was being leased to a local child care provider, since student populations in the 1980s and 1990s did not necessitate a third elementary school. In the early 1990s, it was determined that it was no longer necessary to keep this school. Moreover, it was felt that the cost to modernize the school, mostly in HVAC infrastructure and asbestos removal, was too costly and would not be worth the fund allocation. In an effort spearheaded by then Superintendent Geoffrey Gordon, Hillview was sold to private and public interests: the Morris-Union Jointure Commission currently operates there. Right after the Hillview sale, 7th and 8th grade instruction was moved from the elementary schools to the high school, due to rising student populations in the lower grades. During the first few years of this facility merger, the high school population was low enough that they could effectively share facilities but did not have a need to share classrooms. However, school populations readily increased and both the middle and high schools saw the need for extra classrooms. Moreover, during the years of 1997-1998, the school population started to explode at the Kindergarten and first-grade levels, indicating that there would be a future need for expanded facilities.

The district and town recognized the need for expanded facilities. In 1998 the board of education floated bonds to pay for several construction efforts. Four new classrooms were added in 1998. A new television studio and music room was added in 2001. In 2003, a new gym was built and the cafeteria was expanded. These construction projects would not have been necessary if the town had retained its Hillview facility, causing some residents to consider the wisdom of selling the facility in the first place. The critics' main concern is the perceivable lack of long-term considerations. Currently, the owners of Hillview have no desire to sell the facility back to the borough. As of September 27, 2005 a $10 million bond was passed by referendum for additional school construction.

Administration
Core members of the district's administration are:
 * David M. Miceli, superintendent
 * James E. Testa, business administrator and board secretary

Board of education
The district's board of education, comprised of seven members, sets policy and oversees the fiscal and educational operation of the district through its administration. As a Type II school district, the board's trustees are elected directly by voters to serve three-year terms of office on a staggered basis, with either two or three seats up for election each year held (since 2012) as part of the November general election. The board appoints a superintendent to oversee the district's day-to-day operations and a business administrator to supervise the business functions of the district.

Origins and Private Life
Joseph Ferdinand Cheval, who often went by Cheval Factor was born in Charmes-sur-l'Herbasse into a poor family who practiced farming, in the Drôme département of France, and lived in Châteauneuf-de-Galaure. He left school at the age of 13 to become a baker's apprentice, but eventually became a postman. In 1858, Cheval married his first wife Rosaline Revol. Together they have two sons Victorin Joseph Fernand (1864) and Ferdinand Cyril (1867). Victorin died in 1865 just a year after he was born. His first wife Rosaline died in 1873. Five years later Cheval met and married Claire-Philomène-Richaud. Because of his marriage to Claire, the new couple found themselves with a dowry that accompanied some land in which the Palais Idéal stands today. Later that same year, Claire gave birth to their daughter Alice-Marie-Philomène. Alice died in 1894. Alice’s death hit Cheval the hardest and it was the last child he would have in his lifetime. Many years would pass before his son Cyril and his second wife, Claire would die within two years of each other in 1912 and 1914 respectively.

Palais idéal
Cheval began the building in April 1879 when he was 43 years old. He reported:

"I was walking very fast when my foot caught on something that sent me stumbling a few meters away, I wanted to know the cause. In a dream I had built a palace, a castle or caves, I cannot express it well... I told no one about it for fear of being ridiculed and I felt ridiculous myself. Then fifteen years later, when I had almost forgotten my dream, when I wasn't thinking of it at all, my foot reminded me of it. My foot tripped on a stone that almost made me fall. I wanted to know what it was... It was a stone of such a strange shape that I put it in my pocket to admire it at my ease. The next day, I went back to the same place. I found more stones, even more beautiful, I gathered them together on the spot and was overcome with delight... It's a sandstone shaped by water and hardened by the power of time. It becomes as hard as pebbles. It represents a sculpture so strange that it is impossible for man to imitate, it represents any kind of animal, any kind of caricature.

I said to myself: since Nature is willing to do the sculpture, I will do the masonry and the architecture""

For the next thirty-three years, Cheval picked up stones during his daily mail round and carried them home to build the Palais idéal. He spent the first twenty years building the outer walls. At first, he carried the stones in his pockets, then switched to a basket. Eventually, he used a wheelbarrow. He often worked at night, by the light of an oil lamp.

The palace materials mainly consist of stones (river washed), pebbles, porous tufa and fossils of many different shapes and sizes. When a visitor first comes up on the palace, the first face they see is the southern facade spanning nearly 30 yards long and 14 yards high. The decoration resembles qualities from both the Brighton Pavillion and Guadi’s Sagrada Familia. Cheval did not travel and he had even given himself the title of peasant, so even though the qualities resemble those pieces of art, he had never seen them prior. Giant stones (3) each with doll-like faces standing close to 35 ft high serve not only as decoration but as a support system for the Barbary Tower, with an elegant spiral staircase lined with swans made of cement leading up to it. The tall stones were named Vercingetorix, Archimedes and Caesar. Cheval hand-carved the names into each individual figure.

The north face exhibits a long path dotted with large openings to provide lots of light leading into the heart of the palace itself. This facade is very forest-like with walls coated in moss and massive seaweed. The ceiling, swirling patterns of pebbles and shells that outline the chandeliers. Upper walls are lined with horizontal bands with animals carved into them in an Egyptian-like style. Other animals on the north face facade include two ostriches (presumably mother and father) and an ostrich chick, a 4 foot tall camel, flamingos, octopi, lions, dragons, and a polar bear.

The east facade took the longest to build before, a shocking 20 years. This face includes ‘The Temple of Nature’, an Egyptian style temple-like structure supported by large, thick sandstone columns. It includes two waterfalls called the Source of Life and the Source of Wisdom.

The Palais is a mix of different styles with inspirations from Christianity to Hinduism. Cheval bound the stones together with lime, mortar and cement.

The palace is sprinkled with short quotes and poems hand-carved by Chavel himself. Some examples being "If you look for gold you will find it in elbow grease.", "The Pantheon of an obscure hero." “The work of one man,” “Out of a dream I have brought forth the Queen of the World,” “This is of art, and of energy,” “The ecstasy of a beautiful dream and the prize of effort,” “Dream of a peasant,” “Temple of Life,” and “Palace of the Imagination.” Perhaps the most iconic phrase he inscribed on the wall reads “1879-1912 10,000 days, 93,000 hours, 33 years of struggle. Let those who think they can do better try."

Recognition
Just before his death, Cheval began to receive some recognition from luminaries like André Breton, Bernard Buffet, Jean Tinguely, Niki de Saint Phalle, Robert Doisneau, Agnès Varda. and Pablo Picasso. His work is commemorated in an essay by Anaïs Nin. In 1932, the German artist Max Ernst created a collage titled The Postman Cheval. The collage belongs to the Peggy Guggenheim Collection and is on display there. In 1958, Ado Kyrou produced Le Palais idéal, a short film about Cheval's palace.

After admiring Cheval’s work, Picasso created a series of drawings telling a narrative, in a cartoon fashion, which is now recognized as Facteur Cheval sketchbook in 1937. Picasso drew him as twisted, hybrid-like creature (or beast), carved with the initials of the french postal service (P.T.T) on his skin, dressed in typical postman’s attire, holding masonry tools and a letter. The creature was standing in front of his creation. In the drawing, Picasso took a humorous route sketching Cheval’s body in the shape of a horse and his head that of a bird. Picasso did this in an effort to make a sort of pun about Cheval’s name and career given birds are messengers (as Cheval was a postman) and the meaning of Cheval is horse.

In 1969, André Malraux, the Minister of Culture, declared the Palais a cultural landmark and had it officially protected. In 1986, Cheval was put on a French postage stamp.

Oskaloosa Fire Station

The Oskaloosa Fire Station is a historic building located in Oskaloosa, Iowa, United States. It was designed by Des Moines architect Frank E. Wetherell, an Oskaloosa native, in the Renaissance Revival style. It was originally designed along with the adjoining city hall in 1905. The buildings were designed for phased construction, and the city council decided to build the fire station first. Completed in 1908, it is a three-story brick building with a 4½-story bell tower. The fire station was individually listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1991. Previously it had been included as a contributing property in the Oskaloosa City Square Commercial Historic District.

UFC Fight Night: Swanson vs. Ortega

UFC Fight Night: Swanson vs. Ortega (also known as UFC Fight Night 123) was a mixed martial arts event produced by the Ultimate Fighting Championship that was held on December 9, 2017, at Save Mart Center in Fresno, California.

Background
While the UFC has hosted many events in Northern California, the event marked the promotion's first visit to Fresno. Former Zuffa subsidiary Strikeforce previously contested five events in Fresno, the most recent in October 2010.

A featherweight bout between Cub Swanson and Brian Ortega served as the event headliner.

Promotional newcomer John Phillips was expected to face Eryk Anders at the event. However, Phillips was removed from the card on November 2 and was replaced by fellow newcomer Markus Perez Echeimberg.

Rani Yahya was expected to face Aljamain Sterling at this event. However, Yahya was forced to pull out from the card on November 7 due to injury. He was replaced by former WSOF Bantamweight Champion Marlon Moraes.

Bryan Caraway was expected to face Luke Sanders at the event. However, on November 20, Caraway pulled out of the fight due to undisclosed reasons. He was replaced by Andre Soukhamthath.

Carls John de Tomas and Alex Perez were expected to meet in a flyweight bout at this event. However, the CSAC elected to move the bout to the bantamweight division as they were concerned with De Tomas weight during fight week.

Benito Lopez was fined 10% of his show money by the CSAC due to shoving his opponent Albert Morales at the weigh-ins ceremony. That money will go directly to the commission.

Bonus awards
The following fighters were awarded $50,000 bonuses:
 * Fight of the Night: Brian Ortega vs. Cub Swanson
 * Performance of the Night: Brian Ortega and Marlon Moraes

Reported payout
The following is the reported payout to the fighters as reported to the California State Athletic Commission. It does not include sponsor money and also does not include the UFC's traditional "fight night" bonuses. The total disclosed payout for the event was $866,000.

 * Z: all bits of the last result are zero
 * C: 17^th bit of the last result
 * N: 16^th bit of the last result

 * I: allow interrupts
 * P: parity of the last result

 * any register as return address
 * Some parts come from the Alpha architecture. "ldpgm" had to be there, because those were painfully missing from the SPEAR Architecture. The handling of branches is inspired by the Intel x86.
 * separate registers for interrupt vectors - read and written through "ldvec" / "stvec"

The processor uses a Harvard architecture; although it has not prevailed in mainstream-architectures, it is still used in embedded processors such as the Atmel AVR. The separation of code- and data-memory is not flexible enough for mainstream systems, but with small embedded processors the program code tends to be fixed anyway. A Harvard architecture enables the processor to make use of more memory (which is an issue when the adress space is limited to 64k), and the program code can be read from a ROM directly. A transient failure thus cannot destroy the program by overwriting its code section.

Instruction Set
Instruction Set of marca processor

Pipelining
We are considering a 4-stage pipeline:
 * instruction fetch
 * instruction decode
 * execution/memory access
 * write back

This scheme is similar to the one used in the MIPS architecture, only execution and write back stage are drwan together. For our architecture does not support indexed adressing, it does not need the ALU's result and can work in parallel, having the advantage of reducing the possible hazards.

Sprite Remix

Sprite Remix is a line of "remixed" colorless caffeine-free sodas and drink-flavoring packets made by The Coca-Cola Company. Sprite Remix is one of the most uncommonly known Sprite flavors. Although based on Sprite, this lineup of 3 flavors each had a different flavor from the original. It was discontinued in 2005 in the United States. In the spring of 2015, the Tropical Sprite Remix flavor was reintroduced under the name Sprite Tropical and renamed Sprite Tropical Mix a year later.

Flavors
There were three flavors introduced in different years.

 * Sprite Tropical Remix: Sprite with tropical fruit flavors, introduced in 2002. It was reintroduced as Sprite Tropical in Spring 2015, and was reintroduced again as Sprite Tropical Mix in Spring 2016.
 * Sprite BerryClear Remix: Sprite with berry flavors, introduced in April 2004.
 * Sprite Aruba Jam Remix: Sprite with fruit flavors, introduced in April 2005, short-lived. Reintroduced in 2024 as a Coca-Cola Freestyle exclusive flavor at participating Wendy's locations.

'Remix Flavor Hits' packets
Coca-Cola also had a do-it-yourself promotion, where it offered free 1.25 ounce (36.9 ml.) flavor packets, which consumers use to pour them into their Sprite. There were three flavors, which are grape, vanilla, and cherry.

Sprite Tropical Mix
Sprite Tropical Remix was re-released as Sprite Tropical in the spring of 2015. Sources on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram have shown it popping up in the eastern United States, with eBay listings also appearing.

After a limited-roll out in spring 2015 and no public mention from Coca-Cola, the official Sprite website was updated showing another re-release for Sprite Tropical Remix, which was renamed to Sprite Tropical Mix on February 29, 2016. The new bottle label shows that the tropical flavors are lemon/lime, strawberry, and pineapple.

In 2018, Sprite introduced a similar drink, 'MIX by Sprite Tropic Berry, exclusive to McDonald's restaurants. Along with the base lemon-lime flavor, Tropic Berry includes a blend of strawberry, orange, and pineapple flavor.

In 2019, The Coca-Cola Company updated the Sprite logo and thus redesigned their packaging, replacing the drink's former retro branding with the same simplistic branding used in other flavors in the Sprite lineup.

Most of Nevada is public land and most of the wild horse situation is on public land, what's notable here is that the local landowners are attempting to manage wild horses on private land.  Also, the Virginia Range Wildlife Protection Association is funded by the homeowners, manages the wild horses and continues to be active and is mentioned in the press.

The Silesian Weavers

"The Silesian Weavers" (also: Weaver-song) is a poem by Heinrich Heine written in 1844. It is exemplary of the political poetry of the Vormärz movement. It is about the misery of the Silesian weavers, who in 1844 ventured an uprising against exploitation and wage decreases, and thereby drew attention to the grievances originated in the context of industrialization. Friedrich Engels was the first to translate the poem into English.

Origin and reactions

The so-called weaver song was first published under the title 'Die armen Weber' (The poor weavers) on July 10, 1844 in Karl Marx's Vorwärts! (Forward!) newspaper, and distributed as a leaflet with a circulation of 50,000 copies in the rebel areas. No later than 1846 it appeared in pamphlets under the current name 'The Silesian Weavers'.

The Royal Prussian Supreme Court banned the poem because of "its rebellious tone". In Berlin in 1846 a reciter, despite the risk of publicly performing it, was sentenced to prison.

Interpretation
Unlike many poems at the time, the so-called weaver-song complains not only about exploitation by the factory owners, but also tackles the authorities, criticizing general political circumstances and pushing for change.

The first verse says, "Germany, we weave your burial shroud. Into it we weave the three-fold curse." The three-fold curse is clarified in the next three verses which curse, in turn, God, King, and the Fatherland – a direct reference to the loyalty oath required of Prussian soldiers who swore allegiance to God, King, and the Fatherland.

In the three inner verses God, the King and the Fatherland are accused successively. The weavers are very disappointed that despite desperate pleas, they have received no assistance from God. The King is accused of supporting the rich and taking action against protesters by brute force, instead of addressing the suffering of the workers.

In the outer verses it is clear that the weavers are ready, self-confident in promoting their interests, and persistent in working towards a fundamental change in Germany. Each verse ends with the refrain "Wir weben, wir weben!" (We are weaving, we are weaving!) referring back to the first verse which says they're weaving Germany's burial shroud.

The poem shows that Heinrich Heine considers the concerns of the 19th century workers to be justified, and most of all holds the political system responsible for their misery. The March Revolution of 1848 confirmed his view that a profound change in Germany was imminent.

The Silesian Weavers is the best known example of the variety of contemporary literary analysis of the Weavers' Revolt of 1844, which aroused public awareness of the social question.

Reception
The German metalcore band Heaven Shall Burn was inspired by this poem, in the title of their album "Deaf to our prayers". The poem 'The Silesian Weavers' was also set to music by some music artists, including folk band Liederjan on their album "Mädchen, Meister, Mönche" (Maidens, Masters, Monks), the folk band Bergfolk, folk punk band Die Schnitter (The Reapers), the gothic metal band Leichenwetter (Corpseweather), the German punk band Kapitulation B.o.N.n. on the album "Feuer!" (Fire!) And the Oi-punk band KandesBunzler and Düsseldorf DIY punk rock band Die Schwarzen Schafe (The Black Sheep). In the Liederjan setting, it is now one of the most common and most frequently sung songs in Scout and Bündische Jugend youth groups. As part of "The Revolution of the Citizens", the second stage of the socio-historical work Proletenpassion (Proletarian Passion) by the Austrian band Schmetterlinge, a slightly altered version of the poem was set to music.

Midi loops are OK but with acoustic loops, you cannot modify (simplify or change notes) the music which makes is useless for dramatic scenes.

This statement is based on opinion and is flat out WRONG about the ability to edit and rearrange audio recordings. There are many software packages that enable a range of functionality to extract segments, rearrange loops and beats, preform spectral manipulation, &c.

Title
The article does not state when he received the title of "baron", which was not his by birth. Any ideas?<IP_ADDRESS> 23:26, 26 October 2007 (UTC)

If a "1857 decree of the emperor's ... gave Senate members the title of baron" he obtained the title after that. The claim in the article that the title is casual (assumed) is incorrect.<IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 04:13, 20 January 2013 (UTC)

Geneva?
I heard when visiting Geneva in early 2007 that parts of it were designed by Haussmann, and certainly some streets strongly resemble his designs for Paris. Does anyone have any information on this? There is nothing in the existing article. Rodparkes (talk) 06:43, 21 December 2007 (UTC)

Pronunciation
How is "Haussmann" pronounced? --Error (talk) 17:14, 3 August 2008 (UTC)

Haussmann
Re: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Georges-Eug%C3%A8ne_Haussmann

In the last paragraph of the heading “Origins and Early Career” it's stated: “Napoleon made him prefect of the Seine on 22 June 1853…” In the first sentence under the heading "Rebuilding of Paris" it states: “Haussmann was hired by Napoleon III on 22 June 1852…"

Which is correct...1852 or 1853??

Thanks!

Good catch. 1853 is correct. Thanks!SiefkinDR (talk) 20:10, 5 February 2014 (UTC)

The Voynich Manuscript/Jargon

Your friendly online dictionary for impenetrable Voynich terminology!

Basic Voynich Jargon
Dain = Colloquial Scots, particularly North East Scotland meaning "doing". A typical example may be "Fit i Ye Dain?'" = "What are you Doing?" Can also be "Dein"

dain/daiin/daiiin = a weird-looking "word" that recurs throughout the VMS, often in groups (like dain daiin), which has led to numerous bizarre theories.

EVA = a particular stroke-based transcription format for the VMS, designed to be both linguistically readable and post-processible into whatever glyph format you like. For more on this (and to download the EVA Hand 1 font), go to: http://www.voynich.nu/extra/eva.html

Folio = a pair of pages with a number (the foliation) on the front (typically in the top right). The front page of the pair is denoted "-r" (for recto), and the back (reverse) page of the pair is denoted "-v" (for verso). So, f80r means folio #80, front page.

Gallows / Gallows Characters = the tall squiggly characters seen freqently in the VMS. Less common are Long gallows or Split gallows, which are gallows characters which (typically) have the two 'legs' of the gallows separated and some other text placed beneath.

Interlinear = a merged set of transcriptions of the VMS, where various authors' transcriptions of the same line of VMS text are interleaved (ie, placed one after the other). You can download the latest ("version 1.6e6") Landini/Reeds/Takahashi/etc interlinear file from http://www.dcc.unicamp.br/~stolfi/voynich/98-12-28-interln16e6/

Nymph = one of the small naked women adorning the pages of the balneological and astrological sections.

Picnic Table = an inverted V shape with a flat line across the top (not a gallows character). In EVA this is character .

Quire = a set of bifolios folded around a central "gutter" into a small chapter-like entity: typically 16 pages long. If numbered (as they are in the VMS, usually on the bottom right of the back of each quire), the numbering is referred to as its quiration.

Voynich Section Jargon
Herbal pages = pages with a single type of plant on

Pharma pages = pages with multiple plants and apothecary jars (maiolica)

Astrological pages = the circular volvelles with nymphs (f70v2..f73v)

Astronomical pages = the other circular diagrams (f67r1..f70r2, etc)

9-rosette page = the foldout map page

Recipe / Ephemeris pages = the starred paragraphs at the back of the VMS

Balneological pages = nymphs, baths, plumbing (f75r...f84v)

Key-like sequences = pages with 1+ sets of single glyphs in a row/column/circle

Front page = f1r

Magic circle page = f57v

Fertilisation / Seed page = f86v

The michiton oladabas page = the last page, named after one particularly influential reading of its non-Voynichese letters.

Linguistics/Statistics Voynich Jargon
Core-mantle-crust theory = three separate categories to group letters into: part of a VMS grammar proposed by Jorge Stolfi, explained in depth at http://www.dcc.unicamp.br/~stolfi/voynich/00-06-07-word-grammar/

Entropy = an overall measure of how unpredictable a sequence of numbers is. However, if you change how you predict what the next number is (ie, change the context or model), and you'll get a different entropy value. If you change how you transcribe the text, you'll get a different entropy value too.

Glyph = a single connected entity on a page. But is the ligatured "4o" you often see one glyph or two? Opinions differ...

Grammar = how text 'works'. For the VMS, written in a language and alphabet we (apparently) don't know, working this out has proven hard. A good summary is here: http://www.voynich.nu/a_para.html

(The) Kober/Ventris Approach = the way that Linear B was famously decoded by Michael Ventris, who built his ideas around the patterns noticed by Alice Kober (typically a common triplet at the start of some groups of five symbols, which she suspected formed some kind of root). If the VMS is actually a language, then Kober/Ventris would be relevant, as they decoded Linear B without the help of bilingual texts (like the Rosetta stone, etc). For more info, go to http://www.bib-arch.org/bswb_AO/bswbao0601review.html

Stroke = a single pen-stroke within a glyph.

Transcription = how you choose to convert a text into (ASCII) characters. There are two major types - stroke-based (such as EVA) and glyph-based (pretty much every other one). As opinions differ about what is and isn't a glyph, EVA was introduced so that a single transcription could be post-processed to fit your glyph model.

Cryptography / Shorthand Voynich Jargon
Cipherbet = a contraction of "cipher alphabet" coined by Nick Pelling. Admittedly a horrible word, but if you take a cryptographic view of the VMS, you'll probably end up using this (perhaps unwillingly).

Cleartext = the original text before encoding. Same as plaintext.

Ciphertext = plaintext that has been enciphered/encoded (perhaps encoded text should be called Codetext, but that seems somehow ugly and unusable, I don't know why).

Code / Cipher = a system to fiddle around with text. Technically, codes replace words with a number reference (a code index) and ciphers replace letters with other letters: though nomenclature (whereby particular key words were replaced by special symbols) forms a kind of bridge between the two types of systems.

Cryptanalysis = the art/science of breaking codes/ciphers.

Cryptography = the art/science of making codes/ciphers.

Cryptology = the overall science of code-making and code-breaking

Monoalphabetic = a cipher system that only ever has a single (output) replacement character for a single (input) plaintext character. It's long been agreed that, if the VMs is encoded, it's using a system that's more complex than just a monoalphabetic cipher. cf polyalphabetic.

Notarikon = a system of Qabbalistic word manipulation whereby phrases are transformed into their acronyms (and words expanded back into phrases as if they were acronyms), typically to reveal deeper truths in the Torah. Often described as a kind of possible shorthand / code mechanism, but rarely actually used.

Pair cipher = a cipher which replaces one or more plaintext letters with a pair (or group) of letters from the cipherbet. AKA a verbose cipher.

Plaintext = raw text that hasn't been fiddled around with at all.

Polyalphabetic = a cipher system that has multiple monoalphabetic (qv) ciphers, which it selects between according to context. A "straight polyalpha" will change context every letter, and loop around after (say) every 26 letters: when breaking polyalphas, you often try to discern this "heartbeat". Unless the text has an internal "rhythm" that matches the internal rhythm of the context change, this typically has the effect of emitting all letters at roughly the same rate - which we don't observe in the VMS. So, if it isn't a monoalpha, & it isn't a straight polyalpha... what is it?

Steganography = a system to hide text in plain sight. Rather than relying on mathematics, this relies on psychology and misdirection to distract the eye from seeing the text. Hiding text in JPEGs or WAVs is the modern form of steganography (various intelligence agencies claimed that Al-Qaeda was doing this, but AFAIK have failed to find even one) - but people have taken delight in hiding secret messages in pictures since time immemorial.

Stenography = a modern name for shorthand. Often confused with steganography (qv), even by people who should know better. :-)

Tachygraphy = a shorthand system based around writing a limited number of symbols at speed, typically by using a specially designed "single-stroke" alphabet to take notes onto a wax tablet with a stylus.

Verbose cipher = a cipher which replaces one or more plaintext letters with a pair (or group) of letters from the cipherbet: such systems date back to at least 1440. AKA pair cipher.

Miscellaneous Voynich Jargon
Albarelli = maiolica containers (like small barrels) for potions and lotions. These are relevant to the "barrels" with nymphs in (which Edith Sherwood talks about) in the low-numbered astrological volvelle pages, as these could well be albarelli: the complexity of the glazing designs grew steadily throughout the 15th Century, so moved from austere Islamic geometric shapes (circa 1440-1450) through to complex historical scenes (circa 1510). Similarly, the number of colours that could be employed sensibly increased over the same period - these would date the VMS' albarelli to (say) 1460-1470 (few colours, geometric designs).

Antidotary = manuscript or book from the 15th/16th Century describing recipes, mixtures, plants, jars, etc.

Apothecary = medieval / early modern pharmacist or chemist. The "apothecary oncia" symbol (a 'cursive z' with a bar above it), denoting an ounce or fluid ounce, was a frequent feature of early modern recipes, and is often transcribed as "3". This means a frequent pattern there is "3 iii" (which means "oncia tria", 3 ounces) - so some suspect that the VMS' "dain/daiin/daiiin" could be a steganographic version of "3 i / 3 ii / 3 iii". However, YMMV. :-)

Balneological = a hand-rolled fancy Cuban-cigar way of saying "to do with [medicinal] baths and spas".

(The) Castle Page = part of the foldout page on f85v2. This foldout page is known as "the 9-rosette page", as it is made up of 9 strange circular shapes arranged in a 'tic-tac-toe' pattern, and connected by what look like causeways. Iconographically, the rosette with the castle resembles the circular maps of Milan which appeared in the 15th Century, the most famous of which appeared in Jacopo del Massajo's 1428 edition of Ptolemy's Geographia. Make of that what you will! :-)

Circinus = medieval device used to draw circles.

CopyFlo = a kind of monochrome photocopy printout from microfilm produced by the Beinecke Library which you can buy. It's very nice to own one, but it's just a shame that it's not somewhat better quality.

Foldout = a page larger than the size of most VMS pages that you can "fold out" to see in full. Examples: the famous "9-rosette" map page, the pharma pages, the astronomical pages.

FSG = First Study Group, a early (and significant) group of cryptographers and historians who tried to crack the VMS, 1944-1946. Similarly, there was an SSG in the 1960s. There's a good page listing numerous people involved with the VMS over the years here --> http://www.voynich.nu/solvers.html

Grove Numbers = a way of numbering the nymphs/stars/labels on the circular astrological diagrams: for a particular ring, count clockwise from 9 o'clock (normally the leftmost nymph) up from #1. There are three (partial) justifications for this: (1) this is the location of the ascendant (the horizon) in a circular astrological natal chart; (2) this is roughly where you find stylised markers (probably indicating "start-of-line") in the circular rings of text; (3) if you count from the inside ring first, the nymph associated with the 7th degree of Leo is wearing a crown - the star associated with Leo 7 is Regulus, "the little king". If you're interested, you might like to look at Astromagia. However, YMMV... :-o

Maiolica = 15th/16th century tin-glazed earthenware, AKA lustreware. (Note that Victorian tin-glazed earthenware is called "Majolica", i.e. with a "j"). Maiolica was originally shipped across to Italy from Spain via Majorca (hence the name, somewhat misleadingly), but the technique for making it was copied in Northern Italy, which became the leading centre for their manufacture (circa 1450). http://www.chass.utoronto.ca/~kovacevi/homepage.htm

Mirror of Princes = a type of medieval document which purported to advise princes on how to tackle numerous different aspects of stately life. Filarete's utopian "Treatise on Architecture" falls into this category, as does Machiavelli's (in)famous "Il Principe". However, Alberti also wrote a satire ("Momo e Il Principe Italiano", which is online at http://www.intratext.com/X/ITA0734.HTM ) taking the mickey out of these "Mirrors" (which tended to take themselves rather too seriously), & their intention (to influence those in power) seems rarely to have succeeded. Oh well. :-/

Murano = the centre of the Italian glass-making and mirror-making trade, which was tightly controlled by Venice. A few of the containers in the VMS pharma section have decoration similar to glass from Murano circa 1450-1500.

Nocturnelle = a hand-held circular early modern instrument similar to a volvelle, but instead used for calculating the time at night from the position of the stars. AKA moon-dial, or even phebilabe or phebelabium (following David A. King).

Rotoscope / Rotograph = a kind of projective photograph system used in the early 20th Century, whereby images (rotographs) were projected onto the plane of a screen inside a mechanism (a rotoscope), which could then be examined closely or traced from. The British Library was given a set of VMS rotographs in 1931.

Volvelle = a hand-held medieval astrological instrument made from concentric circular dials, & used to calculate planetary positions...

Wiki / WikiWiki = a generic name for a web-page which anyone can edit quickly without having to learn HTML. Try it yourself! :-)

WMV = Wilfrid Michael Voynich, who bought the VMS in Italy in 1912. His original (Polish) name was "Michal Wojnicz", and his clandestine spy-name (don't ask) was "Wilfryd" - when he moved to the West, he westernised his name to be a mixture of the two, spelt more phonetically.

Wolkenband = a chain of clouds, often used as a squiggly decorative feature in 15th Century Italian MS, to be seen on VMS page f68v3 (first brought up by Erla Rosakiewicz in 1945 - see http://www.ehabitat.demon.co.uk/vms/letter-050.html ) and indeed throughout the VMS' balneological section.

YMMV = Your Mileage May Vary, ie "interpret the preceding statement(s) how you will"

Different 'Round Here

Different 'Round Here is the debut studio album by American country music singer Riley Green. It was released on September 20, 2019, via Nashville Harbor Records & Entertainment.

Content
The album includes three singles: "There Was This Girl", "In Love by Now", and "I Wish Grandpas Never Died". In addition to these, Green also released "Numbers on the Cars" and "Bettin' Man" digitally prior to the album's release. Dann Huff is the album's producer.

Critical reception
Stephen Thomas Erlewine of AllMusic wrote that "What keeps Different 'Round Here humming is how Green manages to avoid the temptation of succumbing to straight-ahead revivalism. He takes old-fashioned attitude and simple, lean arrangements and plays them with a fresh directness. His straight-ahead nature may indeed lead him toward cornball territory, but the album on the whole is distinguished by how Green wears his heart on his sleeve."

Commercial performance
The album has sold 11,200 copies in the United States as of March 2020. It has since been certified Gold by the RIAA.

Personnel
Adapted from liner notes.

 * Mike Brignardello – bass guitar

Wikipedia often has categories "British people of x descent". Could we not put this here - I believe she is of Jamaican descent? She is certainly of West Indian descent. ACEOREVIVED (talk) 09:16, 10 February 2012 (UTC)

In fact, this website:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_African-Caribbean_community

does say that she is of Jamaican ancestry! ACEOREVIVED (talk) 20:39, 14 February 2012 (UTC)
