Biography
Emerson was born in San Francisco and raised in a musical household in Arizona. Along with Nine Inch Nails and Cocteau Twins, her mother played a lot of synth pop in the house—"Propaganda, Frankie Goes To Hollywood, Depeche Mode". Her father plays guitar, and the two of them along with her sister would record using Cakewalk, sparking an early interest in music production.

At 19, Emerson moved to San Francisco where she worked as a software developer and began to make electronic dance music, DJ and throw warehouse parties in the SoMa district of the city, before moving to Berlin in 2014.

In 2016 she released 'The Frontier' on Young Turks sublabel Whities (AD 93 as of 2020)   around the same time she began to regularly DJ in Panorama Bar in Berghain, as well as clubs and festivals throughout Europe.

In 2018 Emerson collaborated with friends to launch Buy Music Club, a site dedicated to building and sharing lists of music on Bandcamp.

Emerson’s productions are known for their melodic-heavy synths and heavy percussion, pulling from a wide history of pop and electronic music. Emerson is also known for her bootleg-style unofficial remixes dubbed “Cybernedits” (formerly Cybernetic Edit Subscription Service) that she provided as free-download zip files until 2016. Officially Emerson has remixed Slowdive, Christine and the Queens, Robyn, Four Tet, Austra, Lena Platonos and more. As a DJ Emerson is known for spanning many sounds, tempos and genres, often heavily looping and re-editing multiple layers of songs during her sets, which at Panorama Bar have lasted more than 11 hours.

Talk:Classical Mechanics/Symplectic Spaces

I think the article is too mathematical. It claims to be simple, but refers only to maths. Since it is supposedly the situation for "classical mechanics" is there any way in which it can be visualised classically in some sort of physical form?

We can talk about negative curvature all the time, but until you state "like a saddle" no-one really comprehends what it means.

2/24th Battalion (Australia)

The 2/24th Battalion was an infantry battalion of the Australian Army, which served during World War II. A unit of the all-volunteer Second Australian Imperial Force (2nd AIF), it was formed in July 1940 from primarily Victorian volunteers and was known as "Wangaratta's Own" because of the time the battalion spent in the town during its formative period prior to deployment overseas. It served in North Africa in 1941–1942 as part of the 26th Brigade, which was assigned to the 7th Division, before being reassigned to the 9th Division. In early 1943, the battalion returned to Australia and later took part in campaigns against the Japanese in New Guinea in 1943–1944 and Borneo in 1945, before being disbanded in 1946. The 2/24th suffered the highest number of battle casualties of any 2nd AIF infantry battalion.

Formation and service in the Middle East
Assigned to the 26th Brigade along with the 2/23rd and 2/48th Battalions, the 2/24th Battalion was established in Caufield, in July 1940. The battalion's first commanding officer was Lieutenant Colonel Allan Spowers, an Australian officer that had served in the British Army during World War I. Part of the all volunteer Second Australian Imperial Force, which was raised for overseas service during the war, the majority of the battalion's initial intake of personnel came from the state of Victoria. The colours initially chosen for the battalion's unit colour patch (UCP) were the same as those of the 24th Battalion, a unit which had served during World War I before being raised as a Militia formation in 1921. These colours were white over red, in a diamond shape, although a border of gray was added to the UCP to distinguish the battalion from its Militia counterpart; this was later changed, though, following the unit's involvement in the fighting during the Siege of Tobruk, as a result of which it was entitled to adopt a T-shaped UCP.

With an authorised strength of around 900 personnel, like other Australian infantry battalions of the time, the battalion was formed around a nucleus of four rifle companies – designated 'A' through to 'D' – each consisting of three platoons. After formation, the battalion was moved to Wangaratta, where it remained until its training facilities were ready in Bonegilla. Because of its time in Wangaratta, it became colloquially known as "Wangaratta's Own". Training was undertaken at Bonegilla, before the battalion was deployed to the Middle East, departing in November 1940, aboard the transport ship HMT Strathmore.

After arriving in the Middle East, the 26th Brigade was reassigned from the 7th Division to the 9th and, after completing further training in Cyrenaica, the battalion subsequently saw action for the first time around Tobruk in April 1941, after the strategically important port was placed under siege by German forces. The battalion remained there for eight months, occupying various positions around the perimeter before they were withdrawn by sea in late October 1941 along with the majority of the 9th Division. A period of garrison duties followed in Palestine and Syria before the 9th Division was hastily moved to El Alamein in response to a German advance through the desert towards Egypt. The 2/24th was subsequently heavily involved in both the First and Second Battles of El Alamein between July and November 1942. During the first battle, the battalion fought to secure Tel el Eisa where they captured a German intelligence unit; during the second battle the 2/24th advanced from Tel el Eisa towards the sea, amidst fierce fighting around a position dubbed the "Saucer".

Fighting in the Pacific
In December 1942, the 9th Division was concentrated in Palestine, following a decision to return it to Australia to take part in the fighting against the Japanese. The 2/24th subsequently sailed in early January 1943, making landfall in Melbourne the following month. They subsequently moved by train to Kairi on the Atherton Tablelands in Far North Queensland. For the majority of 1943, the battalion underwent a period of intense training as it was prepared for the rigours of jungle warfare. This saw the battalion re-organised in line with the jungle division establishment. In September, the 2/24th went into action again, taking part in an amphibious landing to advance on Lae, in New Guinea. The operation was quickly concluded and as the Australians sought to follow up the retreating Japanese, a further landing was made on the Huon Peninsula later in September. The 2/24th subsequently took part in actions around Finschhafen and then the assault on Sattelberg. They took part in the subsequent advance north to Wareo, during which they were mainly used to carry stores and ammunition, before being released from this task and taking part in the fighting around the Christmas Hills. They were transported back to Australia for rest in early 1944.

For over a year the 2/24th remained in Australia training on the Atherton Tablelands, waiting for further employment in the Pacific. During this time, the battalion received a large number of reinforcements, many of whom had previously served with the 6th Machine Gun Battalion, which had served in New Guinea prior to being disbanded. Finally, in April 1945 they were committed to Operation Oboe, the Allied campaign to retake Borneo and Java. After force concentrating the 7th and 9th Divisions on Morotai Island, the plan called for several landings around Borneo and its surrounding areas. The 26th Brigade's part in the operation was to capture the island of Tarakan. The main landing came on 1 May, during which the 2/24th formed the brigade's reserve. After the success of the initial landing, the 2/24th was committed to the fighting to secure the airfield on 2 May, but heavy fighting ensued as the Japanese defenders fought to hold on to the strategically important position, and the 2/24th were held up until 5 May. Following this, the battalion pushed into the rugged terrain inland, fighting a series of actions to secure the high ground overlooking the township. This fighting lasted up until 20 June, when Hill 90 was finally taken by the 2/24th. Mopping up operations followed as the battalion worked to clear Japanese stragglers from the oilfields to the north.

Disbandment
Following the end of hostilities in August 1945, the battalion's personnel were slowly transferred to other units for further service, or repatriated back to Australia for demobilisation. The remaining cadre sailed back to Australia in December 1945, and the battalion ceased to exist in early 1946, when its last remaining personnel marched out from Puckapunyal. A total of approximately 3,415 men served in the battalion throughout its existence. The battalion's casualties throughout the war amounted to 360 killed and 900 wounded; this was more than any other 2nd AIF infantry battalion.

Decorations awarded to 2/24th personnel included: four Distinguished Service Orders with one Bar, 12 Military Crosses, eight Distinguished Conduct Medals, 21 Military Medals, one British Empire Medal, five Efficiency Decorations and 35 Mentions in Despatches. In addition, two members of the battalion were appointed Officers of the Order of the British Empire and three were invested as Members of the Order of the British Empire.

Battle honours
The 2/24th Battalion received the following battle honours:
 * Busu River, Sattelberg, Wareo, Wareo–Lakona, Tarakan, Tel el Eisa, North Africa 1941–42, Defence of Tobruk, The Salient 1941, Defence of Alamein Line, El Alamein, South-West Pacific 1943–45, Lae–Nadzab, Finschhafen, Liberation of Australian New Guinea and Borneo.

Commanding officers
The following officers served as commanding officer of the 2/24th:
 * Lieutenant Colonel Allan Spowers (1940–1942)
 * Lieutenant Colonel Charles Gladstone Weir (1942);
 * Lieutenant Colonel Charles Hector Finlay (1942–1943);
 * Lieutenant Colonel Andrew Basil Gillespie (1943–1945); and

Topic talk:Compilers and language theory

When I got my computer science degree, "Compiler Design" was the CS course that partnered with "Automata and Formal Languages" in the math department. I took compiler design first only because it fit into my schedule that way but since scheduling isn't an issue, students should be encouraged to take the language theory course first. Dmclean 15:41, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

I have a degree in CS too and a special grasp of this topic, so if anybody have questions we can start the thing. --Jorge 22:00, 1 February 2007 (UTC)

Contribution reverted
The statement's not true: compilers are programs used to translate from a programming language (as Pascal) to a language understandable by the computer. The cause of the confusion may be that compilers are referred to as the programming language they translate, so a compiler from Pascal to x86 is called a Pascal compiler. --Jorge 15:42, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

Petra Petersen

Petra Maria Petersen née Andersen (1901–1989) was a Danish politician who, under the German occupation of Denmark in World War II, was a Danish resistance fighter. She was one of the most active organisers in the communist resistance movement around Odense until the end of the war.

Early life
Born on 2 March 1901 in Nørre Højrup near Skamby on the island of Funen, Petra Maria Andersen was the daughter of Niels Andersen (1845–1920), a schoolteacher, and Rasmine Andersen (1859–1937). She grew up as one of 10 children in a radical home to the northwest of Odense. After leaving school, she worked for seven years as an office assistant.

In 1925, Petersen married Alex Petersen with whom she had a child the same year. She then spent the next few years at home, taking an interest in communist ideology. After joining the Danish Communist Party in 1935, she helped to provide support for the Spanish Popular Front during the Spanish Civil War. In June 1941, she was arrested by the Danish police but was released three weeks later on condition she avoided political activities.

Resistance member
Nevertheless, under the code name Lars, she became an active member of the resistance, organizing communist resistance members in Odense and its surroundings. She helped to publish and distribute the illegal communist paper Land og Folk and was one of the founders and main contributors of Trods Alt, the monthly communist magazine first published in July 1942. She typed up the articles while her husband and her 14-year old daughter duplicated the pages. After the Freedom Council was established in September 1943, she became a member of the local committee in Odense. From March 1944, when the Gestapo developed an interest in her and her family, she went underground but continued to work for the resistance until the end of the war, becoming one of the most important resistance players in the area despite the fact that she was a woman.

Post-war activities
Her political activities continued after the war in her position as chairman of the Odense communist division. In 1945, she was one of the 18 communists and one of the first three women in the party who were elected to the Folketing. There she served on the party's central committee until 1960. Her duties included a visit to China and several to the Soviet Union. In Denmark, she focused on improvements to legislation on pregnancy and children. She maintained her faith in communism for the rest of her life.

Petra Petersen died in Himmelev on 25 February 1989.

Ikšķile

Ikšķile (, ; Uexküll, Üxküll; Ikškilā) is a town in Latvia, in Ogre Municipality. It was the first capital of the Roman Catholic Bishopric of Livonia, known by the German name of Üxküll. Saint Meinhard was the first bishop of Üxküll. In 1197, Berthold of Hanover, a Cistercian abbot of Loccum, was made the second bishop of Üxküll. Those days the town was the center of the upcoming crusading activities in the Livonian area. Bishop Berthold moved the episcopal see to Riga, before being killed by the Livs in battle.

According to one theory of the toponym's origin, the Livonian language word Ikšķile denoted "the ford or islet(s), i.e. a place (on the Daugava River) where it was possible to cross the river, belonging to the son of the (local ruler) Ike”. The personal name Ike has the honourable meaning ‘age, lifetime’. The Ike family had a great power in Livonia. They controlled the military and trade traffic across the Daugava at Ykescola/Ykescole.

Other sources have suggested that the placename Ikšķile translates from the Finnic Livonian words ikš-ķile (ikš = 'one', ķile = village) meaning "one village" or "the (one) village".

History
Ikšķile is one of the oldest inhabited regions of Latvia. This is evidenced by the mound and an ancient burial ground in the present rural area of Ikšķile. By the 9th - 12th centuries there was already a Liv village on the Daugava waterway.

Latvia's First Castle
Building and employment of castles was an important topic in the first accounts available in the Livonian Chronicle of Henry. Henry of Livonia, an eyewitness to the events, started telling about a canon of the Augustinian monastery of Segeburg in Holstein called Meinhard. Meinhard heard stories of travelers about the great Daugava river, an area of commerce for pagan tribes of Livs and Letts.

Meinhard ventured there to convert people to Christianity. After some conversions, he built a church in the village of Ikšķile and baptized some Livonians. However, the position of the church was vulnerable to attacks, mainly from Lithuanian pagan inhabitants. After a Lithuanian raiding party attacked in winter, Meinhard and the local people hid in the forests. According to Henry of Livonia's chronicle, Meinhard pointed out that Livonians were foolish for not having fortifications, and promised people to build castles if they converted to Christianity.

In 1185 stonemasons from Gotland built the castle of Ikšķile with a chapel or church. This is the oldest stone castle in Latvia and it is also the oldest stone building in the Eastern Baltic. In 1186 the upper bishop of Bremen appointed the monk Meinard, of Segeberga monastery, near Lübeck, as the first bishop of Ikšķile. Under his leadership Ikšķile became the center from which Catholicism would spread in Latvia. Both Meinhard and the second bishop, Berthold, were buried inside Ikšķile Church (Bishop Meinhard was later reburied at the Dome Church in Riga). Albert of Buxhovden followed Berthold as bishop of Uexkull. He arrived at his diocese with a sizeable army of Saxon crusaders and supported by the Holy Roman Emperor and the Pope.

Moving of the Livonian Bishopric Center
Albert realized that the diocese of Uexküll, defended by a castle with the same name, was far away from the Daugava river to be effective in the battle. For that reason, he requests another fortification near the sea, that would be the founding of Riga. In 1201, the third Bishop of Ikšķile, Albert, moved the Livonian Bishopric Center to Riga. During the Livonian Crusade Ikšķile Castle was attacked by the Semigallian troops on the left bank of the Daugava several times, and in 1203 and 1206 Prince Vladimir of Polotsk tried to capture the castle.

In 1638 the municipality of Ikšķile included eight manors, the richest of which being the Ikšķile and Tīnūžu manors. By the 19th century there were two manors left in the Ikšķile municipality, the Ikšķile and Berkava manors. After the formation of Ogre, which originally belonged to the Ikšķile municipality, the area of Ikšķile parish was gradually reduced.

The castle of Ikšķile was destroyed in the 17th century, and the church (which was rebuilt many times) was destroyed in 1916 by German artillery. In 1933 a new Lutheran church was erected near Ikšķile, near the station. Due to the construction of the Riga Hydroelectric Power Plant and the reservoir, the ruins of the first stone church were preserved in the 1970s; the island on which they are now located was increased and strengthened. The ruins of Ikšķile manor, as well as a castle, are below the water of the reservoir.

Government
The head of the city government in Ikšķile is the mayor. The incumbent mayor Indulis Trapiņš.

Ikšķiles government is located at Ikšķile, Peldu street 22.

School
Ikšķile Secondary School is a Latvian State School, founded in 1966. It is also a Junior Achievement Latvia School.

The origins of the Ikšķile School date back to 1864, when the first parish school was established under the leadership of Ikšķile. The school building is named Zemturi. About a hundred years after the development of Ikšķile School it was decided to build a new school. The building of the school took place near the center of Ikšķile, next to the new A6 highway. The Ikšķile School of the Ogre District was opened in 1966. The development and growth continued, therefore additional schools were built, enabling the establishment of a secondary school. From 1989 to 1990, the school was rebuilt, and in 1990 it was named the Ikšķile Secondary School.

Ikšķile library
Ikšķile District Central Library is a library in Ikšķile, located on Peldu street 22.

The first library in the vicinity of Ikšķiles was formed and operational by the beginning of the 19th century. The first written information about the library of Ikšķile region can be found at the beginning of V. Villeruš's book "Gājums", which states that in 1852 a Reading Association with 35 members was established in the Ikšķile municipality. The library was restored in 1946, after the Second World War. There have been changes to the library over the years; in 1974, a separate children's library was created.

 * Ruins of the Ikšķile Church - the ruins of the oldest stone building in Latvia, located on a small islet, Sv. Meinard Island, artificially created in the Riga hydroelectric power station reservoir. Ikšķile Church was built in 1185 under the direction of Bishop Meinard. Rebuilt in 1879 - 1881, destroyed in 1916. After the flood of the Riga Hydroelectric Power Plant in the 1970s it has been surrounded by the reservoir waters. Today the ruins are preserved; a roof over them has been built, and the island is secured. Once a year, when the water level in the reservoir is lowered, it is possible to go to the church ruins on foot along the former road, which is lined by old tree trunks that have remained.

Gokulam Kerala FC

Gokulam Kerala Football Club is an Indian professional football club based in Malappuram, Kerala. Founded in 2017, the club competes in the I-League, the second tier of Indian football league system. They won the 2020–21 I-League title to become the first club from Kerala to do so, and became the first team to defend the league title in 2021–22. Gokulam is also the first and so far the only club from the state to qualify for a continental competition, AFC Cup, in 2022.

Nicknamed Malabarians, Gokulam Kerala represents the state of Kerala, predominantly its Malabar region. Affiliated with Kerala Football Association (KFA), club's reserve team competes in Kerala Premier League, and clinched titles in 2017–18, and 2020–21. They also won the 129th edition of the Durand Cup, becoming only the second side from Kerala to win that competition. The women's section of the club participates in the Indian Women's League.

Formation and early years (2017–2020)
Gokulam Kerala was founded in January 2017. The club then went on to participate in Awes Cup in Goa, in which they finished the campaign as runners-up. On 20 September, after the second round of bidding invitations, the bid evaluation committee decided to award Sree Gokulam Group the right to field their team in the Hero I-League 2017–18 season onwards from Calicut, Kerala. Although the club did not have a good beginning, they went on to defeat clubs like East Bengal, Mohun Bagan and Minerva Punjab by the end of the season. Gokulam Kerala hired Spaniard Fernando Santiago Varela as head coach in March 2018.

On 15 March 2018, Gokulam played the Super Cup qualifiers against North East United FC and was qualified with a 2-goal victory. In the pre-quarterfinals of the Super Cup on 1 April 2018, they were leading against Bengaluru by 0–1 until 60 minutes with a goal scored by the striker Henry Kisekka but Bengaluru scored a stoppage time goal which led to a defeat of 2–1. Gokulam in 2019, for the first time went abroad and participated at the 2019 Sheikh Kamal International Club Cup in Bangladesh,  where they qualified for the Semi-finals after finishing 2nd in Group B. Gokulam finished as semifinalist after losing 3–2 to Chittagong Abahani. Gokulam Kerala won their maiden title under the coaching of Fernando Santiago Varela, the 129th edition of the Durand Cup on 24 August 2019, defeating Mohun Bagan 2–1 in Kolkata.

Gokulam Kerala won the 2020–21 I-League by defeating TRAU FC in the final game. With 29 points from 15 games, they qualified for the 2022 AFC Cup group stage. In April 2021, Gokulam Kerala emerged as the champions of the 2020–21 Kerala Premier League, defeating KSEB FC 2–1 at the Thrissur Municipal Corporation Stadium. They began their 2021–22 I-League season on 26 December with 1–0 win against Churchill Brothers. They later thrashed Real Kashmir by 5–1. After back to back wins in both the group and championship stages,    the club clinched I-League title again in 2021–22 season, defeating Mohammedan Sporting 2–1 in the final game at the Salt Lake Stadium on 14 May, and became the first club in fifteen years to defend a national league title.

On 5 July, the club officially announced that they roped in former Cameroonian international Richard Towa as new head coach. Due to not maintaining good form in league marches, the club parted ways with Towa and roped in Spanish manager Francesc Bonet in place of him.

In April 2023, the club took part in 3rd edition of Indian Super Cup. Gokulam Kerala secured third place in 2023–24 I-League season, finishing their campaign with 42 points in 24 matches. On 18 April, the club roped in Antonio Rueda Fernández as new head coach.

Talk:Idle Hands

Robert Englund
Robert Englund is not credited anywhere in the film and isn't mentioned anywhere on the imdb page. Why is he credited as the voice of a character who never speaks? I'm flagging his involvement as citation needed and will edit it out later if I don't get a source. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lurdiak (talk • contribs) 04:48, 21 March 2021 (UTC)

Randy Rhoads
Also yeah, didn't I hear that Randy's character as a randy rhoads tribute? —Preceding unsigned comment added by TapOut 013 (talk • contribs) 05:18, 12 December 2008 (UTC)

Um... i don't want to sound weird, but isn't the Randy character (seen wearing a quiet riot t-shirt) a refference to Randy Rhodes? <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 21:32, 22 September 2008 (UTC) Alzwded

Cover Art
Cover art looks heavily inspired by the work of Saul Bass. Perhaps in the opening title sequence of Psycho or Vertigo (I'd have to watch them again to be sure). But I'm over 90% sure I've seen a movie poster or title sequence frame very close to the look of the cover design featured here (and I'm fairly certain it was Saul Basses work on an Alfred Hitchcock title.

Origin of Title
How about adding something to this page saying where the title, "Idle Hands," comes from? I was searching for information on the old proverb about idle hands being the Devil's tools, or however it goes, and ended up here. Alexbook (talk) 20:12, 7 July 2009 (UTC)

Battle of Beas River

The Battle of Beas River took place between the Chagatai Khanate and the Mamluk Sultanate on 9 March 1285. Ghiyas ud din Balban arranged a military defense line across the Beas River as part of his "blood and iron" fortification chain strategy at Multan and Lahore as a countermeasure against the Chagatai Khanate invasion. Balban managed to repulse the invasion. However, his son Muhammad Khan was slain in battle.
