девяносто два

Numeral

 * 1) ninety-two (92)

Usage notes

 * девяно́сто два́ in the nominative and accusative case governs the genitive singular of the noun, although modifying adjectives are in the genitive plural (or alternatively and preferably, for feminine nouns, in the nominative plural). Unlike with bare, there is no animate/inanimate distinction.

 * девяно́сто два́ in other cases governs the appropriate plural case of the noun, with adjectives agreeing appropriately.

Talk:Governor's Schools (Virginia)

Summer Language Academies
I changed the piece on the smallest Academy, as that is the Russian Academy. Primarily for tradition, and for the sake of "closeness", the Russian Academy accepts only 38 students, when it can have up to 50.

Also changed the length of time from "last four weeks" to "last up to four weeks" as the Language acaemies are really there only for just over three weeks (At one point the language academies were over 6 weeks, but due to cost cutting, it was shortened).

I have also added a link to the language Academies website as it can very hard to find.

I attended the Russian Academy in the summer of 2005, so if you need an "insider's perspective" to the language academies, feel free to drop a line.

Zidel333 23:21, 21 March 2006 (UTC)

Already Article For Language
There is a completly seperate article for the Foriegn Language Academies; under Virginia's Governor's Foreign Language Academies. After I wrote the section on Foriegn Language in the general Governor's Schools (Virginia) article, I found it, but realized that everything I wrote was for all intents and purposes in their article. Anyway, possible merger? Something? Zidel333 03:24, 27 March 2006 (UTC)

 * I did a little digging, and it appears that the Foreign Language Academies are not under the Governor's Schools Program umbrella . . . they're a completely separate program run by the Department of Education. As such, I've removed all content regarding them from this page and have instead linked to the specific page dedicated to the Academies.  Some of the information that was on this page previously has now been incorporated into the dedicated Academies page. Jkatzen 09:20, 27 March 2006 (UTC)

 * Hmm... I attended the Russian Academy, the schools are accredited by the Virginia Department of Education, who run the summer programs. This is the same Virginia Department of Education who accredit the all year Governor's Schools, such as the Thomas Jefferson High School for Science and Technology. (In short, there is the same oversight in schools, and summer programs). As such, I believe they are run the same way as the full length schools, and they are all under the same "umbrella". I honestly believe that all the programs should be under the Governor's Schools Article.

 * Please cite where you learned this.

 * Zidel333 00:24, 28 March 2006 (UTC)

 * Yes, the Governor's Foreign Language Academies are accredited by the same Virginia Department of Education that runs the Governor's Schools. This is also the same VDoE that accredits high schools such as Mills Godwin in Henrico County and Albemarle in the county of the same name.  By the same token, just because TJ is a Governor's School doesn't mean Godwin and Albemarle are (even though they're accredited by the same group).  It's very difficult to cite a vacuum; but I can't find any support on the VDoE web site for the Academies being part of the VGSP. http://www.pen.k12.va.us/VDOE/Instruction/Govschools  On the other hand, the Academies have a separate web site that makes no mention of the Governor's Schools. http://www.pen.k12.va.us/VDOE/Instruction/Language/GAindex.html.  However, because there may be some difficulty in locating one given the other, I have added cross-links in the "See also" sections of each. Jkatzen 06:41, 28 March 2006 (UTC)

 * I fail to understand your logic. Given if you cannot properly cite this, I believe the articles should be reverted to as before.

 * I'm going to try and call VDOE this afternoon, and see if anyone can actually clear this up.

 * Zidel333 17:44, 28 March 2006 (UTC)

 * Um, pardon me? What logic is there to not understand?  They're two separate programs, and what I've cited for you makes no mention of them being the same.  Thus, by implication, they are different.  What have *you* cited to suggest they're connected? If you can show me much of anything semi-official that would indicate their connection, it would satisfy me, and I'd look into combining the articles again.  If you diagram out what you had said (if VDOE controls GSP, and VDOE controls Academies, then GSP & Acadamies are the same program), you were noting that because A controls B, and A controls C, therefore B and C are the same program.  This is the same flawed parallel logic I used in my response (VDOE controls Godwin, VDOE controls TJ, therefore TJ and Godwin are the same program).  Jkatzen 09:11, 29 March 2006 (UTC)

Combating BDS Act

The Combating BDS Act is an anti-BDS bill passed by the Senate in the 116th United States Congress intended to counter the BDS movement's call for boycotts, divestment and sanctions against Israel.

The bill was introduced in January 2019 on the first day of the 116th session of Congress in a package of four bills related to the Middle East. Three of the other bills were uncontroversial. Marco Rubio (R-Florida) was the primary sponsor of the bill and the co-sponsors were James Risch (R-Idaho), Cory Gardner, (R-Colorado), and Mitch McConnell, (R-Kentucky).

A week after the package was introduced in the Senate, it was blocked by Democrats from moving forward. On February 5, 2020, it was passed in the Senate with the vote 77 to 23, with 22 Democrats and Rand Paul voting nay.

Free speech issues
The bill was criticized by several parties on grounds that economic boycotts are protected by the First Amendment and some critics alleged that the bill was unconstitutional. Among its critics were, Rebecca Vilkomerson, executive director of Jewish Voice for Peace, presidential candidate Bernie Sanders, Rand Paul (R-Kentucky), Representative Rashida Tlaib, antiwar group Code Pink, J Street, and the American Civil Liberties Union.

Paul gave a speech in the Senate explaining his opposition to the bill:

"[B]oycotting or protesting is something so fundamentally American, so fundamentally associated with the First Amendment that even if we don't like what you are boycotting, even if we don't like what you are saying, that in America we allow that to happen because that is what freedom of speech is about ...

Boycotting is speech. I went to a Baptist college. I remember when I was in college that the Baptist women of the Southwest Baptist Convention didn't like pornography being out in front at the store where kids could view it. Do you know what they did? They marched. They didn't hurt anybody. They didn't commit violence. They did nonviolent protests by marching in front of the utility stores until—guess what—because of the economic boycott and the bad press, the people put the pornographic magazines behind the counter, and only adults were allowed to buy them and look at them. That is from a boycott.

We boycotted English tea to found a country. ...

Are we here to say that we are going to forbid boycotting, that you can't do business with the government? Here is the problem. People say: Oh, it is a privilege to do business with the government. What if you are a physician and half of your business is with the government? What if you are a nurse? Half of the healthcare in our country is paid for by the government. What if you are a teacher and you work in the public schools? Are we going to ask all of these people to take a litmus test that they are not going to boycott or protest against their government's policy? What kind of country would we live in? Yet it is groupthink around here. Everybody is so paranoid and saying: Oh, we can't object to this lobby. Because this lobby is so powerful, we can't object to them. Look, it isn't about the ideas; it is about the freedom of speech."

Duncan was not Australian national champion over 200m freestyle at 1986 national swimming champioships, i know this because i was, my name is Peter Dale
Duncan was not Australian national champion over 200m freestyle at 1986 national swimming champioships which was also selection trials for Commonwealth Games. The honour of national champion went to Peter Dale who was also Australian Record Holder, Tom Stachewicz was second and i think Robert Gleria was third. At the commonwealth games in scotland 1986 the aussies won the trifecta with Gleria First, dale second and Stachewicz third. From memory Armstrong won the consolation final in the 200m freestyle at 1986 australian swimming titles. Duncan did swim fast at trials and was in fine form by the time of Commonwealth Games but he did not satisfy the selection criteria for and individual swim at the Commonwealth Games in 1986. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Daisyswim (talk • contribs) 02:35, 17 December 2011 (UTC)
 * I can't find any evidence that Duncan won this, and it's unsourced, so I removed it. I think this book verifies that you won the 200m, but it's only in snippet view so it's hard to say for sure just based on this book. Calliopejen1 (talk) 03:10, 17 December 2011 (UTC)

Darge Sahle Selassie

Darge Sahle Selassie (circa 1825–1830 – 23 March 1900), Horse name Abba Gersa, was a 19th-century Ethiopian nobleman, provincial governor, general and a trusted councillor of his nephew Emperor Menelik II.

Ancestry
A male line descendant of Shewan Amhara rulers through his father Negus Sahle Selassie of Shewa. His mother was Woizero Wurige belonging to the Silt’e, she was a mistress of his father.

He was half-brother to Negus Haile Melekot, Sayfu Sahle Selassie and Haile Mikael Sahle Selassie, and had at least five other half sisters.

Early life
Darge was born and brought up in Ankober, and just like his half brothers received ecclesiastical education in his childhood in one of the monastic schools in northeastern Shewa, and may have shaped his interest in theological discussions and reading the scriptures later in life. Darge also received training in equestrian and war-like exercises.

Death of Negus Sahle Selassie and rebellions
In October 1847 Darge's father, Sahle Selassie the king of Shewa died. His half brother Haile Melekot succeeded as the Negus, while Sayfu Sahle Selassie governed Merhabete and the eastern lowlands. Darge and his half-brother Haile Mikael Selassie were to live under the guardianship of Haile Melekot and Sayfu. Darge was associated mostly with Sayfu Sahle Selassie until around 1857.

Following immediately on the death of Sahle Selassie, the Oromos of Shewa rebelled. They marched into Amhara areas and destroyed a number of sites among which was Sala-Dengay Darge and Sayfu started their military campaign against the Oromos in Selale governate. Before long, they secured Fiche, the capital of the region. The two princes alongside the military commander Garmame pacified the Oromo rebels in Gembeccu, Gulale, Meta and Baco. They set up their central camp around Entoto. To ensure stability of these regions, the two princes settled a number of Amhara farmers in the regions of Lume and Ad'a. Shewa was relieved of any major Oromo rebellions until 1855.

Captivity
During Emperor Tewodros II advances to reconquer Shewa into the Ethiopian Empire in 1855, the demoralized and ailing king Haile Melekot entrusted his brother Darge to safeguard Menelik (then called Sahle Maryam) in the event of a restoration of the kingdom. Haile Melekot succumbed to his disease and was buried in the church at Debre Bag in December. Darge meanwhile had fled with Menelik and some units of the Shewan army towards Minjar, a fertile plateau between the Kasam and Awash rivers. The Emperor sent Ras Engeda and his troops in pursuit of the heir, and applied constant pressure to Darge's dwindling force. In a gracious and conciliatory gesture Tewodros II visited Haile Melekot's funeral which left Darge with an impression; and after learning that the Emperor had shown clemency towards Shewan soldiers and officials who submitted, and that he had announced publicly that he would treat Menelik as a son. Darge and his party finally surrendered. Darge and his nephew Menelik II were the chief Shewan prisoners taken with the Emperor to Gondar, and later to the mountain citadel at Magdala (the modern Amba Mariam). Abeto Darge as he was then called, had been among the Shewan leaders that had tried to rally the resistance against the Emperor in the name of the young prince his nephew, and Tewodros had admired Darge's efforts. Although technically prisoners, the two Shewan princes enjoyed the Emperor's affection and favor, and were greatly honored and respected at his court. Darge was especially admired for his military skills. When Emperor Tewodros eventually decided to marry his daughter Alitash Tewodros to Menelik, Darge (now titled a Fitawrari) presided as the family elder of the Shewan Royal House.

Darge was part of the Shewan party that helped Menelik escape from Magdala in order to return to Shewa and reclaim his throne, but he himself remained behind. Darge was not punished by Tewodros for helping Menelik escape, and this was attributed to the deep affection Tewodros II had for Darge. He was released from captivity in 1868 by the British.

Return to Shewa
Darge was created a Ras and made Ras of Selale by his nephew upon his return to Shewa following his release from Magdala when Tewodros II died, founding the senior cadet branch of the dynasty in the later days of the Ethiopian Empire. In 1886, then Emperor Menelik assigned him the governorship of Arsi Province, and completed the conquest that his nephew had begun the year before. The conquest was infamous for its slaughter of the Arsi Oromo who lived there, leading Baxter to describe him as "the Butcher Cumberland of the Arussi Highlands... whose name is still reviled there."

Darge became Menelik's senior advisor, always advising him to be prudent and patient in his dealings with the powers that be. Although Menelik claimed to be the next legitimate claimant to the Imperial throne, Darge brokered Menelik's acceptance of Wagshum Gobeze's assumption of the throne as Tekle Giyorgis II and the marriage of his own daughter Tisseme to the new Emperor's half-brother Haile Wolde Kiros. When Tekle Giyorgis II was deposed by Emperor Yohannes IV, again it was Darge who counseled Menelik to be patient and submit. As a result, Darge was universally respected by all the various feudal princelings and claimants in Ethiopia, and was held in very high regard by Emperor Yohannes in particular.

Considered the senior prince of the blood during the reign of his nephew as Emperor Menelik II, he was the only person in a position to scold the Emperor as a father would. He often acted as regent in the absence of Emperor Menelik. He was acting in the capacity when the Emperor was marching north to face the Italians at Adowa, when he received the stunning news that the Italians had brought his son Lij Gugsa Darge from his school in Switzerland with the intention of placing him on the imperial throne after they defeated Menelik. Ras Darge was enraged, and not only disowned his son but had his name struck from the Imperial family genealogy.

Death
Darge died of illness in March 1900 and was buried with pomp and ceremony at Debre Libanos.

Descendants
He was the father of Dejazmach Desta Darge, Woizero Tisseme Darge, Fitawrari Shewareged Darge, Dejazmach Tessema Darge, Woizero Tsehaywork Darge, Woizero Askale Darge, Dejazmach Asfaw Darge, Lij Gugsa Darge and Lij Belw Darge The succession to Selale eventually passed on to his grandson Ras Kassa Haile Darge, son of Woizero Tisseme Darge.

Darge was the uncle of Emperor Menelik II of Ethiopia, Ras Makonnen Woldemikael governor of Harar, Ras Welde Giyorgis of Gondar, Fitawrari Takla Mariyam Haile Mikael, Dejazmach Mashasha Sayfu and several other notables.

Three categories, however, deemed to denote the absence of "defining" data, Category:Year of birth missing (living people), Category:Year of birth missing and Category:Year of death missing were allowed to remain on the article page. The details are further elucidated on the discussion page of each category.—Roman Spinner (talk) 20:01, 6 November 2008 (UTC)

The Brown Noser

The Brown Noser (also known as The Noser) is an undergraduate satirical newspaper at Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island.

Overview
Founded in 2006, The Brown Noser is Brown University's second oldest humor publication (behind The Brown Jug, founded in 1920). They provide a comedic take on university news as well as outside events.

History
When The Brown Nosers founders first applied to the Board of the Undergraduate Council of Students to request a financial endowment for publishing, they were denied funding. The founders then stormed the Undergraduate Council of Students meetings covered in body paint until they received funding sufficient to print The Noser five times a semester. The first article was "Brown Noser to Replace Daily Herald as Campus's Premier Comedy Newspaper," a joke on Brown University's oldest publication, The Brown Daily Herald.

In Fall 2009, The Noser adopted and revived The Brown Jug, the student satirical magazine founded in 1920. The Jug features humorous content which mocks popular culture, fashion trends, politics, humorous illustrations, and events around the Brown University's campus. The Noser is part of a collective of Brown comedy groups, along with Improvidence, Starla and Sons, Out of Bounds, and The Brown Jug, known as the "Brown Barrel."

Issues
The Brown Noser publishes six times per year and unloads hundreds of copies within hours of its release by stationing writers at frequented campus intersections. The Noser is printed in Seekonk, MA by TCI Press.

ARIA Music Awards of 2019

The ARIA Music Awards of 2019 are the 33rd Annual Australian Recording Industry Association Music Awards (generally known as ARIA Music Awards or simply The ARIAs) and consist of a series of awards, including the 2019 ARIA Artisan Awards, ARIA Hall of Fame Awards, and ARIA Fine Arts Awards and the ARIA Awards. The ARIA Awards ceremony were held on 27 November 2019 and broadcast from the Star Event Centre, Sydney around Australia on the Nine Network. Guy Sebastian hosted the ceremony, he also performed his track, "Choir", and won two categories.

On 24 September 2019 the Fine Arts and Artisan Award nominees were announced and the winners were determined on 10 October. ARIA had revealed the nominees for the ARIA Awards on 10 October. New categories were created for Best Hip Hop Release and Best Soul/R&B Release, which had previously been combined as Best Urban Release.

Australian four-piece vocal group Human Nature were inducted into the ARIA Hall of Fame. They performed a medley of their songs, "Don't Say Goodbye", "He Don't Love You", "Dancing in the Street" and "Everytime You Cry". Tones and I won the most awards, receiving four from eight nominations. The Teskey Brothers received seven nominations and won three categories; while Hilltop Hoods, also with seven nominations, obtained one trophy. Michael Chugg, a promoter and talent manager, received the ARIA Industry Icon Award.

ARIA Hall of Fame inductee
On 1 November an ARIA representative announced that Human Nature were to be inducted into their Hall of Fame. The group's members issued a joint statement, "All we have ever wanted to do for a career is to entertain people, and to have had the fans continually support us over the years both in our home of Australia and overseas, is really something we never dreamed of. To be inducted on the anniversary of our first ever performance as a group and in our 30th year since forming makes us so grateful."

Robotics/Navigation/Collision Avoidance

Collision avoidance, in comparison to collision detection, is what is done after a possible collision is detected. Possible collisions will depend on the shape and size of both the object and robot as well as the position and motion projection of the object and the robot. When making an attempt to avoid an obstacle, there are many decisions to face. The decisions available depend on the available paths the robot can take to avoid the obstruction. These paths can either be determined upon the robot’s realization of the obstruction or, in case all of the obstructions’ positions are known, once the map is loaded. Finding the “correct” path to use can be troublesome depending on which algorithm is used and the granularity associated with it.

Basic Idea
If there is an object in the robot’s way, avoid it.

Essentially, this is the basic idea in collision avoidance. However, this simple matter to humans is incredibly complex in the computer world. Which algorithm is best in avoiding obstacles? Which is least complex, most efficient? Which algorithm can utilize the robot’s full capabilities effectively? All of these are questions one should ask when searching for a valuable collision avoidance algorithm.

Example Algorithm

In the figure to the right, a simple “tank-drive” robot is presented making it’s way to three pre-determined waypoints. The robot’s algorithm is a dignified version of the simple one-liner given at the beginning of this section:

 * 1) Turn to the nearest waypoint if there is one left.
 * 2) If there is no waypoint left, stop.
 * 3) Move toward the nearest waypoint.
 * 4) If there is something in the way:
 * 5) Go around it.
 * 6) After every 1.5 body lengths, go to step 1.
 * 7) If the robot has reached the waypoint:
 * 8) Remove the reached waypoint from the list.
 * 9) Go to step 1.

Albeit this algorithm works well for an over-simplified map where all obstacles are simple geometric shapes, in more complex scenarios it may not fare as well. For instance, nestling a waypoint in the middle of a U-shaped obstacle would cause this algorithm to never end.

Major Problem
With robots having greater and greater importance in our everyday lives, it is no wonder that collision avoidance (particularly dealing with human safety) is becoming an increasingly greater concern. Such concerns are not to be taken lightly. There is already one death associated with roboticide.

In addition to safety, other concerns can be generated:
 * Collision Avoidance Algorithmic Complexity
 * Computer Power
 * Sensor Accuracy / Throughput
 * Sensor Data Interpretation

Of course, as the algorithmic complexity of the collision avoidance algorithm increases, so does the required computer power. Some researchers are even finding it beneficial to use multiple processors in parallel (parallel processing) to “divide and conquer” such problems.

Sensor accuracy and throughput is becoming less a threat to successful collision avoidance. However, this doesn’t mean it is non-existent. During the process of engineering a collision-avoiding robot, trade-offs can be made that could potentially compromise the effectiveness of the sensors in how the robot behaves.

Detection vs. Avoidance
Collision detection is simply the act of surveying the known vicinity of the robot and detecting the presence (or absence) of a possible collision. In order for a robot to avoid a collision, a collision must first be detected. Without collision detection, it doesn’t seem reasonable to have collision avoidance because there wouldn’t be anything to avoid (in the robot’s scope).

Collision avoidance is the plan for action the robot takes to evade the oncoming collision. As previously stated, there is no need for collision avoidance if there are no collisions to avoid.

Quad Trees
The use of quad trees allows for a simple collision avoidance algorithm. An approximation technique used here uses a type of data structure called a quad tree. A quad tree is similar to that of a binary tree except that a quad tree has four child nodes for each parent instead of just two.

Each child node is represented by a square of pixels in a “top-down” image of the robot’s surrounding landscape. Each square simply acts as a binary answer to the question, “Is there any possibility for a collision inside of this square?” If the answer is yes, then the square is avoided, otherwise, the square is noted for safe travel. An example of this is given in the figure below.

Advantages
An advantage to using this algorithm is that retreating can be done fairly easily – by climbing back up the tree and trying a different approach. Of course, in a case where all of the obstacles have been found, a minimal path can easily be created using simple distance algorithms.

Disadvantages
A disadvantage to using this algorithm is that, due to the granularity of each square of pixels, it is possible for the obstacles to be close enough such that a robot wouldn’t notice that it could actually fit through a gap.

Mary Lokko

Mary Lokko was a Ghanaian activist.

Lokko was active in the affairs of the West African Youth League in the 1930s, first becoming involved in discussions surrounding the Second Italo-Ethiopian War, which was then raging. Her beliefs drew attention from local journalists, and in January 1936 I. T. A. Wallace-Johnson suggested that she become his assistant; as a result, she was perhaps the first woman in West Africa to hold an official position in a political organization. She used her platform to support women's involvement in the Youth League. Little is known about her background or her later life.

Mewati language

Mewati (Devanagri: मेवाती; Perso-Arabic: میواتی) is an Indo-Aryan language spoken predominantly by the Meo people. It has three million speakers in the Mewat Region (Alwar and Bharatpur, districts of Rajasthan, and the Nuh district of Haryana). While other people groups in the region also speak the Mewati language, it is one of the defining characteristics of the Meo culture.

There are 9 vowels, 31 consonants, and two diphthongs. Suprasegmentals are less prominent than they are in the other dialects of Rajasthani. There are two numbers; singular and plural. Two genders; masculine and feminine, and three cases; direct, oblique, and vocative. The nouns decline according to their final segments. Case marking is postpositional. Pronouns are traditional in nature and are inflected for number and case. Gender is not distinguished in pronouns. There are two types of adjectives. There are three tenses; past, present, and future. Participles function as adjectives.

Phonology
There are twenty plosives at five places of articulation, each being tenuis, aspirated, voiced, and murmured:. Nasals and laterals may also be murmured, and there is a voiceless and a murmured.

Scroll down the page to view possible responses or click on the desired question in the contents box below.

What to teach? How to teach it?
Imagine a friend of yours, Jennifer, has just been hired to tutor a sixth grader, Sam. She's all excited, because it's her first tutoring job. However, she's very worried, too, because she has never tutored before. She has come to you for advice. You had just read somewhere that the most important concerns in any instruction are "what to teach" and "how to teach it". Let's assume that Jennifer has already found out that Sam is supposed to learn the names of the first seven Presidents of the United States. So let's turn our attention to "how to teach it". Based on the need to create strong links within memory, what would you say are the most important instructional strategies you could suggest to your friend? Think about it, click "edit" for this section, and add your answer below:

 * Before your first session, obtain a list of all the Presidents.

* George Washington * John Adams * Thomas Jefferson * James Madison * James Monroe * John Quincy Adams * Andrew Jackson * Martin Van Buren * William Henry Harrison * John Tyler

 * Repetition and mnemonics would be helpful instructional strategies. Study the list of names and see if you can come up with a mnemonic. Do the first letters of the last names make up anything that would be easy to remember? WAJMM? AJBHT? In this case, I don't think so. What about a saying. "Washing Adam and Jeff made Monroe happy." Maybe you could make a visual drawing that would help Sam to remember the scene. If that fails, perhaps you can come up with a rhyme or a song. Try to be creative!

 * Create handmade or computer generated flash cards to facilitate practice.

 * You might find other ways to simplify the task, such as teaching just the last names at first. Then only after they are mastered, teach the first names.

What are the recommended teacher actions?
What should Jennifer be doing while Sam is stating the names of the first seven Presidents of the United States? Should she just sit there or should she do something? What do you think she should do? Think about it, click "edit" for this section, and add your answer below:

 * The practice can be initiated by something like, "Okay, let's give it a try now! Don't look at the list. Who were the first five Presidents?"
 * ADD YOUR ANSWER ABOVE THIS BULLET POINT. SIGN IT WITH YOUR NAME USING THE SIGNATURE WIKICODE Phonebein 17:56, 18 December 2011 (UTC)

What about when the learner get stuck?
Picture Jennifer asking Sam to name the Presidents. If he only knows who the first one is (George Washington), would you start by asking him to name all of them? That would be silly. So what other guideline should you give Jennifer? If this all seems obvious, it shows you have already picked up an intuitive understanding of some of the most basic principles of instruction from your observations or studies. Congratulations! But beware that we are quickly moving on to less obvious principles. Think about it, click "edit" for this section, and add your answer below:

 * If Sam gets stuck and can't remember who comes next, prompt him: "Jefferson." Whenever there is an error, correct it right away. When he says "Monroe" after Jefferson, you just say: "Not yet. Madison."
 * ADD YOUR ANSWER ABOVE THIS BULLET POINT. SIGN IT WITH YOUR NAME USING THE SIGNATURE WIKICODE Phonebein 17:56, 18 December 2011 (UTC)

What about larger amounts of content?
Let's assume that Sam needs to learn the names of all the Presidents of the United States instead of just seven. Forty Presidents is a lot to learn. Would you present all 40 at once and then elicit practice on all 40 at once? Think of what you would recommend to make it easier for him to learn all those names, click "edit" for this section, and jot your answer below:

 * The key is to chunk the material. Since there are more than seven names, plan how to chunk them (how many in each chunk, and how many chunks). Since the names seem like they would be fairly hard for Sam to remember, eight chunks of five names would be a good starting point.
 * After Sam has mastered the second chunk, don't forget to review the first: "Great! Now tell me the names of all ten!"
 * Also, as noted above, you might find other ways to simplify the task, such as teaching just the last names at first. Then only after they are mastered, teach the first names.
 * Finally, use lots of repetition: "And again ...."
 * ADD YOUR ANSWER ABOVE THIS BULLET POINT. SIGN IT WITH YOUR NAME USING THE SIGNATURE WIKICODE Phonebein 17:56, 18 December 2011 (UTC)

How to prompt the learner?
Let's assume the names are difficult for Sam. What else can you recommend to help him remember the names in the first chunk? Keep in mind the need to strengthen those links, click "edit" for this section, and jot your answer below:

 * There is a good chance that by the time Jennifer has finished teaching the last chunk of names, Sam will have difficulty recalling all the previous names. Hence, periodic review is important to include in your instruction. Often it is wise to review items from the first chunk right after the second chunk is mastered, to review items from the first two chunks right after the third chunk is mastered, and so on.

What is often more powerful and efficient than repetition to facilitate memorization?
There is another feature which can be even more powerful and efficient than repetition to facilitate memorization. Try to think of what it is, click "edit", and write your answer below:

 * Games provide a powerful and efficient means of facilitating memorization. You could use a game as simple as "Hangman" or more complex like a Framegame to stimulate interest.
 * ADD YOUR ANSWER ABOVE THIS BULLET POINT. SIGN IT WITH YOUR NAME USING THE SIGNATURE WIKICODE Phonebein 17:56, 18 December 2011 (UTC)

What about motivation?
It is hard to remember all those names, and Sam is bound to have trouble at first. What can Jennifer do to keep him from getting discouraged—to keep his attitude positive and his concentration high? High motivation translates into high effort, and that means quicker and better learning. What would you recommend to Jennifer? Think about it, click "edit", and add your answer below:

 * Encourage him when he falters: "That's closer!" Give praise when he is correct: "All right! You got it this time! You're smart!"

Talk:Arthur Askey

Was Arthur's catchphrase "I thank you" or "I thank you all / y'all"?
Arthur's catchphrases were first added to this article a few months after its creation in 2004. The phrase in question was written as 'I thank you', and stayed that way until 2010, when an anonymous editor changed it to 'I thank y'all'. Attempts to revert to 'I thank you' have been resisted, without explanation.

I would suggest that 'I thank you' is correct for several reasons:

 * Y'all is not commonly used in British English
 * The name of Arthur Askey's 1941 film is 'I Thank You', and was clearly so called after his catchphrase
 * There is no 'l' sound detectable in recordings of Askey delivering this catchphrase. It sounds more like a 'w'.

By way of illustration, I've uploaded an audio extract of Arthur saying 'I thank you' in the early minutes of the film 'I Thank You'.

I thank you! :-)

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just modified 1 one external link on Arthur Askey. Please take a moment to review my edit. If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit this simple FaQ for additional information. I made the following changes:
 * Added tag to http://www.britmovie.net/Actor-A-Z/arthur-askey.html
 * Added tag to http://www.radioacademy.org/halloffame/askey_a/
 * Added archive https://web.archive.org/web/20040420012510/http://www.televisionheaven.co.uk:80/hisaskey.htm to http://www.televisionheaven.co.uk/hisaskey.htm

In furtherance of Richard Ingram'S perceptive and persuasive observation that Askey and the Queen Mother had never been seen in the same room together, it is well known, and there is photographic evidence to support it, that the lady tied her own flies, and while there is no longer any visual evidence, clearly Askey also fastened his own flies. Although this evidence msy be categorised as merely 'circumstantial', in a Court of British Law, it could be argued that it is still evidence. Hmmmm.<IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 11:07, 21 December 2016 (UTC)

Which war?
He served in the armed forces in World War II

Data Structures and Algorithms/Trees and Graphs

Tree
In computer science, a tree is a widely used abstract data type (ADT)—or data structure implementing this ADT—that simulates a hierarchical tree structure, with a root value and subtrees of children with a parent node, represented as a set of linked nodes.

A tree data structure can be defined recursively (locally) as a collection of nodes (starting at a root node), where each node is a data structure consisting of a value, together with a list of references to nodes (the "children"), with the constraints that no reference is duplicated, and none points to the root.

Alternatively, a tree can be defined abstractly as a whole (globally) as an ordered tree, with a value assigned to each node. Both these perspectives are useful: while a tree can be analyzed mathematically as a whole, when actually represented as a data structure it is usually represented and worked with separately by node (rather than as a set of nodes and an adjacency list of edges between nodes, as one may represent a digraph, for instance). For example, looking at a tree as a whole, one can talk about "the parent node" of a given node, but in general as a data structure a given node only contains the list of its children, but does not contain a reference to its parent (if any)

Definition
A tree is a data structure made up of nodes or vertices and edges without having any cycle. The tree with no nodes is called the null or empty tree. A tree that is not empty consists of a root node and potentially many levels of additional nodes that form a hierarchy.

Terminology used in trees

 * Root
 * The top node in a tree.

 * Child
 * A node directly connected to another node when moving away from the Root.

 * Parent
 * The converse notion of a child.

 * Siblings
 * A group of nodes with the same parent.

 * Descendant
 * A node reachable by repeated proceeding from parent to child.

 * Ancestor
 * A node reachable by repeated proceeding from child to parent.

 * Leaf
 * (less commonly called External node)
 * A node with no children.

 * Branch
 * Internal node
 * A node with at least one child.

 * Degree
 * The number of subtrees of a node.

 * Edge
 * The connection between one node and another.

 * Path
 * A sequence of nodes and edges connecting a node with a descendant.

 * Level
 * The level of a node is defined by 1 + (the number of connections between the node and the root).

 * Height of node
 * The height of a node is the number of edges on the longest path between that node and a leaf.

 * Height of tree
 * The height of a tree is the height of its root node.

 * Depth
 * The depth of a node is the number of edges from the tree's root node to the node.

 * Forest
 * A forest is a set of n ≥ 0 disjoint trees.

= Graph = In computer science, a graph is an abstract data type that is meant to implement the undirected graph and directed graph concepts from mathematics, specifically the field of graph theory.

A graph data structure consists of a finite (and possibly mutable) set of vertices or nodes or points, together with a set of unordered pairs of these vertices for an undirected graph or a set of ordered pairs for a directed graph. These pairs are known as edges, arcs, or lines for an undirected graph and as arrows, directed edges, directed arcs, or directed lines for a directed graph. The vertices may be part of the graph structure, or may be external entities represented by integer indices or references.

A graph data structure may also associate to each edge some edge value, such as a symbolic label or a numeric attribute (cost, capacity, length, etc.).

Operations
The basic operations provided by a graph data structure G usually include: Structures that associate values to the edges usually also provide:
 * (G, x, y): tests whether there is an edge from the vertex x to the vertex y;
 * (G, x): lists all vertices y such that there is an edge from the vertex x to the vertex y;
 * (G, x): adds the vertex x, if it is not there;
 * (G, x): removes the vertex x, if it is there;
 * (G, x, y): adds the edge from the vertex x to the vertex y, if it is not there;
 * (G, x, y): removes the edge from the vertex x to the vertex y, if it is there;
 * (G, x): returns the value associated with the vertex x;
 * (G, x, v): sets the value associated with the vertex x to v.
 * (G, x, y): returns the value associated with the edge (x, y);
 * (G, x, y, v): sets the value associated with the edge (x, y) to v.

Representations
Different data structures for the representation of graphs are used in practice:
 * Adjacency list
 * Vertices are stored as records or objects, and every vertex stores a list of adjacent vertices. This data structure allows the storage of additional data on the vertices. Additional data can be stored if edges are also stored as objects, in which each case vertex stores its incident edges and each edge stores its incident vertices.

 * Adjacency matrix
 * A two-dimensional matrix, in which the rows represent source vertices and columns represent destination vertices. Data on edges and vertices must be stored externally. Only the cost for one edge can be stored between each pair of vertices.

 * Incidence matrix
 * A two-dimensional Boolean matrix, in which the rows represent the vertices and columns represent the edges. The entries indicate whether the vertex at a row is incident to the edge at a column.

The following table gives the time complexity cost of performing various operations on graphs, for each of these representations, with |V | the number of vertices and |E | the number of edges.[citation needed] In the matrix representations, the entries encode the cost of following an edge. The cost of edges that are not present are assumed to be ∞. Adjacency lists are generally preferred because they efficiently represent sparse graphs. An adjacency matrix is preferred if the graph is dense, that is the number of edges |E | is close to the number of vertices squared, |V |2, or if one must be able to quickly look up if there is an edge connecting two vertices

Assumpta Oturu (born 1953) is a Ugandan-American journalist and poet. She hosts a weekly radio programme, 'Spotlight Africa', on the Los Angeles–based radio station KPFK. She has published poetry as Assumpta Acam-Oturu.

Life
Acam-Oturu was born in Teso, Eastern Uganda. She obtained a diploma in journalism from Mindolo Ecumenical Centre's School of Journalism in Zambia, and in 1983 earned a BA in Journalism and International Relations from the University of Southern California. She started 'Spotlight Africa' on KPFK in July 1986, to address the lack of knowledge about Africa amongst Americans. The programme, broadcast weekly on Saturdays, documents African politics, economics, current affairs, social and women's issues.

Oturu appeared in the 2015 documentary Bound: Africans vs African Americans, which explored tensions in the African diaspora. Oturu emphasised the historical roots of these tensions, in the slave trade and African ignorance of the African American experience. At an African Diaspora Conference in November 2017 she emphasised the opportunities for Africans and African Americans to enlighten each other about the specificities of their respective cultures.

Sears Mexico

Sears Operadora México, S.A. de C.V. is a department store chain located in Mexico, operating 92 stores all over Mexico as of 2022. Sears México is operated by Grupo Sanborns, a division of Grupo Carso.

Early history
On 26 February 1947, the first Sears in Mexico was opened in Colonia Roma, Mexico City (now the site of the Plaza Insurgentes mall) by Sears, Roebuck and Co.

In the initial three days after opening, approximately 110,000 customers visited the store, with total sales reaching about $600,000. During its first week, the store faced challenges in maintaining inventory levels, necessitating the delivery of additional goods via three flights from a Texas warehouse operated by the parent company. The store's entry into the Mexican market has been viewed by some as a catalyst for changing consumer patterns, influencing a shift towards different economic priorities.

In its first year of operation, the Mexico City store did around $16 million in business, almost twice as much as was expected by its parent company. However, just a few months after opening, in order to prevent a drain on the nation's foreign-currency reserves, Mexico barred some nonessential imports and raised tariffs on others. This impacted the Mexico City store, which was at the time importing around 90 percent of its merchandise. This forced the store to create alliances with Mexican manufacturers. It also brought interest in factories that were producing its merchandise. In 1949, Sears México had around 2,500 Mexican suppliers furnishing some 80 percent of the goods in the Mexico City store.

A second and third Sears were opened in 1949 in Monterrey and Guadalajara, and by 1953, Sears had seven stores in Mexico with annual sales of more than $15 million and employed around 1,900 people. These employees received cost-of-living allowances, paid vacations, retirement funds and free medical treatment. In 1956, there were 17 Sears stores in Mexico with a sales volume of around $25 million. There were around 3,200 employees at that time, all but 16 of whom were Mexican citizens. Additionally, about 90 percent of the merchandise sold in its stores was made in Mexico.

Grupo Carso
On 2 April 1997, Sears formed a strategic alliance with Grupo Carso, owned by Mexican businessman Carlos Slim Helú, through which it was agreed to sell 85% of Sears México to Grupo Carso, which, as of 2022, owns 100% of the company. Even though Sears unveiled a new lowercase logo in the United States in 2010, Sears México changed its logo to a red variant of the 1994–2004 Sears uppercase blue logo in 2013.

Dorian's
In 2004, Grupo Carso bought Dorian's Tijuana, S.A. de C.V., a mid-range department store chain present mostly in northwestern Mexico, established in Downtown Tijuana in 1959. Carso operated it as a subsidiary of Inmuebles Borgru, S.A. de C.V., which was in turn a subsidiary of Inmuebles Carso, S.A.B. de C.V. In that same year, Dorian's purchased 5 department store locations from JCPenney, the U.S.-based retailer which had been operating in Mexico since 1995.

In April 2009, Dorian's brand was jettisoned, and 13 of the 14 Dorian’s locations were converted to Sears: In Tijuana: 3 stores Plaza Río Tijuana, Plaza Carrousel in La Mesa, Centro Comercial Mesa de Otay); in Cancún—Plaza Las Américas (formerly JCPenney), in Chihuahua City—Plaza de Sol (formerly JCPenney); Downtown Ensenada; Downtown La Paz and Forjadores La Paz; in León, Guanajuato—Plaza Mayor (formerly JCPenney); in Mérida—Plaza las Américas (formerly JCPenney), in Mexicali—Centro Comercial Cachanilla; in the Monterrey area—San Pedro Garza García (formerly JCPenney and since moved to San Agustín); and a store in San Luis Río Colorado, Sonora (since closed). The exception was Downtown Tijuana Dorian's flagship which was closed in May 2009 and is now the "Plaza de la Tecnología", a market hall of consumer technology vendors.

Current status
Despite the bankruptcy of its former parent company, the closing of many stores in the United States and Canada, and the subsequent sale to ESL Investments, Sears México still remains open for business due to different ownership.

In July 2021, it was announced that the Mexican company was considering renaming its stores to distance itself from its failing former parent in the United States.

Locations
Sears has 92 stores across the country, including 25 in Greater Mexico City (14 in Mexico City proper, 11 in the suburbs in the State of Mexico). The remaining 67 stores are spread across the country from Tijuana to Cancún, with a presence in all 32 states except Campeche.

In Greater Mexico City, branches are located in the city proper at Portal San Ángel, Parque Via Vallejo in Azcapotzalco, Plaza Universidad, the World Trade Center in Nápoles, Perisur, Centro Santa Fe, Avenida Juárez in the Historic Center, Forum Buenavista, Plaza Insurgentes (Colonia Roma (the first in Mexico, opening in 1947), Plaza Lindavista, Parque Tezontle, Parque Las Antenas in Iztapalapa, Pabellón Polanco, and Galerías Coapa in Tlalpan. In the State of Mexico portion of the metro area, Sears stores are located at Galerías Atizapan, Plaza Chimalhuacan, Zentralia Coacalco, Cosmopol in Coacalco, Mexipuerto Cuatro Caminos, Luna Parc Cuautitlan Izcalli, Plaza las Américas in Ecatepec, Paseo Interlomas, Plaza Ciudad Jardín in Ciudad Nezahualcóyotl, Plaza Satélite and Plaza Tlalne Fashion Mall in Tlalnepantla.

 * < 45 severe hypoxemia

pH

 * Acidic pH < 7.35
 * Basic pH > 7.45
 * If the pH is not in the direction of the pCO2 then this is a metabolic disorder with respiratory compensation
 * If the pH is NORMAL and the pCO2 is abnormal, then this is a fully compensated respiratory disorder
 * If pH is in the direction predicted by the paCO2 and the BE=0 (BE = base excess) then this is an uncompensated respiratory disorder
 * If pH is in the direction predicted by PaCO2 and BE is + or - then partially compensated respiratory disorder

pCO2

 * Acidic > 45
 * indicates hypoventillation

 * Basic < 35
 * indicated hyperventillation

HCO3

 * Acidic < 24
 * Basic > 26

Count the number of acid (A) vs. base (B)

 * if pCO2 A/B matched pH A/B - respiratory
 * if HCO3 A/B matches pH A/B - metabolic

Compensation
If the change in PCO2
 * increases by 10 - HCO3 increases by 1 - acute respiratory acidosis
 * increases by 10 - HCO3 increases by 3-5 - chronic respiratory acidosis
 * decreases by 10 - HCO3 decreases by 2 - acute respiratory alkalosis

Magdalene Kreßner

Magdalene Kreßner (3 October 1899 - 18 May 1975) was a German sculptor. She is known, in particular, for her mural reliefs.

Life
Magdalene "Ebbi" Kreßner was born in Schweizerthal (now part of Burgstädt) in the Kingdom of Saxony. As a child she was initially sent to a boarding school, but she hated it. Eventually her parents were persuaded to send her to the "Alte Kunstschule Richter" (Art School) in Dresden where her love of art was awakened. She became determined to become a painter (and at the same time to avoid getting "side-tracked into sculpture"). Between 1921 and 1927 she studied with Wilhelm Gerstel at the Berlin-Charlottenburg Arts Academy (as it was known at that time). She then switched to the Academy of Fine Arts in Dresden where between 1927 and 1930 she was a "Meisterschülerin" (loosely, "master student") of Karl Albiker.

Magdalene Kreßner supported herself as a freelance artist in Dresden between 1930 and 1945. On 13 February 1945 her studio was destroyed in the firestorm and bombing inflicted on the central part of the city by the English and the Americans. She also lost her home. Following the destruction she ended at Oberlößnitz which by this time had been subsumed - formally in 1934 - into Radebeul, a short distance down-river from Dresden, where she made her home at Eduard-Bilz-Straße 42, and where she lived for the rest of her life, in a home that was large enough to incorporate the little studio in which she now worked.

Because her early work was destroyed in the bombing, Magdalene Kreßner is chiefly known for the work she produced between 1945 and 1975. During this time the central portion of Germany, including Dresden and the surrounding region, was administered as the Soviet occupation zone, relaunched in October 1949 as the Soviet sponsored German Democratic Republic (East Germany). The mural reliefs on public buildings for which she would be remembered reflect the style associated with East German public art. Many have themes drawn from classical mythology or from the Christian bible. Among her better known works is the oak crucifixion group produced during 1955/56 for the "Luther Cemetery" at Radebeul. In the judgement of one commentator, it combines content and form with subtle empathy. Other important works include "Drei Generationen" ("Three generations - 1967"). which is currently part of the Dresden State Art Collection.

Kreßner also produced illustrations for various children's books and, notably, for an early edition of Thomas Mann's vast four-part novel, Joseph and His Brothers.

Icarus is a post-apocalyptic novel by Roger Levy. It follows the establishment and rebellion of two extrasolar colonies, one and the desert planet of Haven, and another on the tropical paradise of Haze.

Plot summary
Events in Icarus are seen through the eyes of four characters: Milton Parker, a charlatan-philanthropist; Quill, a miner on Haven; Mexi, a young woman training to become part of Haven's propaganda division; and Martin, a child soldier from Haze who was sent to Haven.

Milton Parker is a preacher who becomes famous for "healing" congregants with the power of prayer, while secretly using specially designed medicines and slight-of-hand. He establishes a massive medical research foundation with the donations he receives from his public demonstrations in an effort to find a cure for his quadriplegic wife, Mary Trulove. In doing so Milton accrues great political power, and begins funding colonization projects to the desert planet of Haven, and tropical paradise of Haze.

Milton leaves Earth, which will soon become uninhabitable, for Haze, but becomes increasingly paranoid of being betrayed. He then attempts to destroy the colony on Haven, but ultimately establishes a puppet government. On Haze Milton creates a society with brutal population controls and a strict caste system, believing that by eliminating choice, he can eliminate sin.

Milton creates an agency called Fact on Haven, which suppresses all references to Haven's origination from Earth. Quill discovers an archived copy of the history of Earth, and he, Mexi, and Martin evade the authorities on Haven by fleeing to Haze. There, they join a rebellion organized by Mary, and depose Milton, who has been been using cryogenic freezing to keep himself alive for several hundred years.
