Talk:Dov Charney

NPOV
In looking through this article, it is clear to me that the tone is overtly flattering to Mr. Charney, bordering on self-promotion (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Vanity_guidelines#Self-promotion). Even the controversy heading was entitled: 'Sexuality and controversy', which seems to me an attempt to 'sexify' controversy. Apothecia (talk) 08:46, 24 May 2009 (UTC)

It seems that in looking at the other talk here, that there has been some row over this for awhile.Apothecia (talk) 08:46, 24 May 2009 (UTC)

I've been editing this article for the last week or so and have trouble seeing what you mean. Until Mr. Charney is proven guilty of the charges against him, there is no other way to word this article. Changing it to a "Controversy" section, however, was a good idea as I imagine new controversies will continue to emerge.

Looking into it further, this meets none of the three requirements for self-promotion:

1. Links that appear to promote products by pointing to obscure or not particularly relevant commercial sites (commercial links). 2. Links that appear to promote otherwise obscure individuals by pointing to their personal pages. 3. Biographical material that does not significantly add to the clarity or quality of the article.

I don't believe there is a consensus with your NPOV tag here at all. Fedordostoy (talk) 14:44, 24 May 2009 (UTC

 * I'm removing the NPOV because although totally in good faith, it's not representative of opinion about the article and the editor didn't include any reasons or support for the claim. The prior 'row' mentioned was in June 2008, the article has been edited dozens upon dozens of times by all sorts of people since then with no complaints. Wikidemon, a Wikipedia administrator, reviewed the article a few days ago and didn't see fit to add the tag. Something like that needs to be sufficiently justified here first, discussed and then put into effect. Plus, as I mentioned before, self-promotion isn't the right criticism anyway. Fedordostoy (talk) 12:15, 28 May 2009 (UTC)

I'm a stupid feminist cunt. Gnarlwhal (talk) 02:10, 24 August 2012 (UTC)
 * If there is inculpatory material from reliable sources that has not been included in this article, here would be a good place to put it for discussion. - <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 13:40, 16 October 2012 (UTC)

"Charney is known for his success as an entrepreneur, and passion for simple clothing." I could not find a reference to "passion for simple clothing" in either of the 3 "sources" for this statement. As it stands, this article is clearly written in a favorable fashion and not objective at all.2crudedudes (talk) 13:40, 15 November 2012 (UTC)
 * I agree with your assesment and I have tried to make some changes to improve this article as well as the American Apparel article. These two pages seemed to have a lot of fluff. I don't have to time to really improve them. Someone else will need to pick up the ball from here. <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 18:18, 28 December 2012 (UTC)

This article has evolved into an advertisement, not a biography. ConradArchguy (talk) 01:16, 2 July 2014 (UTC)

I agree with the above posters - this page reads like a puff piece for Charney and tries to downplay any evidence of wrongdoing while painting him in the best light possible.<IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 16:30, 2 June 2015 (UTC)

I've been editing this article for a while and added all the stuff about his lawsuit with AA currently. I see no real problems with NPOV, it neither makes him look good or bad, merely a product of the reliable coverage, firings, allegations, etc. I'd say chill out. CaffeinAddict (talk) 19:36, 2 June 2015 (UTC)

When you google Dov Charney, the first link that comes up is this article, and the second one is a Guardian piece that describes him as "the man at least as famous for founding American Apparel as he is for being serially accused of sexual harassment." I think that is accurate and that our article--particularly its lead--does not adequately reflect the things that make Dov Charney notable. It does read like it's been put through a PR filter. Nareek (talk) 16:53, 6 January 2022 (UTC)

Pulling out some stuff that could maybe be reworked

 * Widely considered a pioneer in the manufacturing industry, Charney has been recognized as an unconventional leader. This is attributed in large part to his early adoption of socially progressive company policies and American Apparel's provocative, un-retouched ad campaigns

First link is broken and not findable on Wayback Machine. Second sentence is uncited. Third sentence is all about AA's advertising and not at all about his socially progressive policies. Could be reworked, certainly, but doesn't seem to meet BLP guidelines and reads like puffery. Jessamyn (my talk page) 15:26, 7 October 2022 (UTC)
 * American Apparel had become the largest T-shirt manufacturer in America. One of only a few clothing companies exporting "Made in the USA" products, it sold about $125 million of domestically manufactured clothing outside of the US

This is copyvio from this article and needs to be rewritten.
 * "advocate for immigration reform"

This was in the document's lede and while it's representative of AA's approach at a single point in time, in keeping with MOS:LEADBIO, I don't think it should be in the lead sentence. Jessamyn (my talk page) 17:05, 7 October 2022 (UTC)

The definition used here should be merged into the definition for racism. The given definition is the true meaning of racism despite the fact that it is seldom used in that context. Racialism and racialist are not real words.

Requests for deletion - kept
Kept. See archived discussion of 10 2007. 20:05, 19 January 2008 (UTC)

Yes. It's correct, but Oxford Dictionary on Google doesn't seem to understand it.
It's mentioned everything on the main page. I just elaborated on it (and the cultural issues had to be merged). People don't reject their bias easily.

RFV discussion: March 2021
Rfv-sense: "The categorization of humans in different races (not necessarily for superiority ranking)." A can of worms quite frankly. --Robbie SWE (talk) 18:01, 4 March 2021 (UTC)

 * Compare also the definitions which were present before (vs after) these changes. (The "British, dated" label got moved to an entirely different sense, but this was probably correct, because there are contemporary and American instances of "racialism" where what's meant is "racism".) As you say, a can of worms. The entry needs more attention than I have time to give it right now. - -sche (discuss) 03:58, 5 March 2021 (UTC)

 * made a distinction between his uses of the terms racism and racialism in his 1993 book In My Father's House: Africa in the Philosophy of Culture. Racialism is “the view ... that there are heritable characteristics, possessed by members of our species, that allow us to divide them into a small set of races, in such a way that all the members of these races share certain traits and tendencies with each other that they do not share with members of any other race.” I do not know if he was the first to give such a clear definition, but many authors that use the term cite his book. As defined, it does not imply a notion of superiority of one race over another. A similar distinction that, however, implies such a notion was made by Bulgarian-French philosopher in the 1993 book On Human Diversity: Nationalism, Racism and Exoticism in French Thought. (This is a translation from of Nous et les autres: La réflexion française sur la diversité humaine from 1989.) Todorov explains racialism as the belief in typological essences, called “races”, which can be rated hierarchically, while racism is not a belief but the use of racialism to promote social or political ends. This distinction is also used and cited in the literature. Used in this sense, it is a synonym of the oxymoronic term “” – not overtly racist, but nevertheless serving to promote a racist agenda. I think we see a less charged – although opprobrious – use here, in the sentence “Yet such racialism was built upon the data of philology, inferring discrete racial groups from different speech varieties.” This is in the context of a Victorian mediaevalist view of mediaeval English as pure and indigenous.  --Lambiam 14:47, 5 March 2021 (UTC)

Karatsuba algorithm

The Karatsuba algorithm is a fast multiplication algorithm. It was discovered by Anatoly Karatsuba in 1960 and published in 1962. It is a divide-and-conquer algorithm that reduces the multiplication of two n-digit numbers to three multiplications of n/2-digit numbers and, by repeating this reduction, to at most $$ n^{\log_23}\approx n^{1.58}$$ single-digit multiplications. It is therefore asymptotically faster than the traditional algorithm, which performs $$n^2$$ single-digit products.

The Karatsuba algorithm was the first multiplication algorithm asymptotically faster than the quadratic "grade school" algorithm. The Toom–Cook algorithm (1963) is a faster generalization of Karatsuba's method, and the Schönhage–Strassen algorithm (1971) is even faster, for sufficiently large n.

History
The standard procedure for multiplication of two n-digit numbers requires a number of elementary operations proportional to $$n^2\,\!$$, or $$O(n^2)\,\!$$ in big-O notation. Andrey Kolmogorov conjectured that the traditional algorithm was asymptotically optimal, meaning that any algorithm for that task would require $$\Omega(n^2)\,\!$$ elementary operations.

In 1960, Kolmogorov organized a seminar on mathematical problems in cybernetics at the Moscow State University, where he stated the $$\Omega(n^2)\,\!$$ conjecture and other problems in the complexity of computation. Within a week, Karatsuba, then a 23-year-old student, found an algorithm that multiplies two n-digit numbers in $$O(n^{\log_2 3})$$ elementary steps, thus disproving the conjecture. Kolmogorov was very excited about the discovery; he communicated it at the next meeting of the seminar, which was then terminated. Kolmogorov gave some lectures on the Karatsuba result at conferences all over the world (see, for example, "Proceedings of the International Congress of Mathematicians 1962", pp. 351–356, and also "6 Lectures delivered at the International Congress of Mathematicians in Stockholm, 1962") and published the method in 1962, in the Proceedings of the USSR Academy of Sciences. The article had been written by Kolmogorov and contained two results on multiplication, Karatsuba's algorithm and a separate result by Yuri Ofman; it listed "A. Karatsuba and Yu. Ofman" as the authors. Karatsuba only became aware of the paper when he received the reprints from the publisher.

Basic step
The basic principle of Karatsuba's algorithm is divide-and-conquer, using a formula that allows one to compute the product of two large numbers $$x$$ and $$y$$ using three multiplications of smaller numbers, each with about half as many digits as $$x$$ or $$y$$, plus some additions and digit shifts. This basic step is, in fact, a generalization of a similar complex multiplication algorithm, where the imaginary unit $i$ is replaced by a power of the base.

Let $$x$$ and $$y$$ be represented as $$n$$-digit strings in some base $$B$$. For any positive integer $$m$$ less than $$n$$, one can write the two given numbers as

 * $$x = x_1 B^m + x_0,$$
 * $$y = y_1 B^m + y_0,$$

where $$x_0$$ and $$y_0$$ are less than $$B^m$$. The product is then

$$ \begin{align} xy &= (x_1 B^m + x_0)(y_1 B^m + y_0) \\ &= x_1 y_1 B^{2m} + (x_1 y_0 + x_0 y_1) B^m + x_0 y_0 \\ &= z_2 B^{2m} + z_1 B^m + z_0, \\ \end{align} $$

where

 * $$z_2 = x_1 y_1,$$
 * $$z_1 = x_1 y_0 + x_0 y_1,$$
 * $$z_0 = x_0 y_0.$$

These formulae require four multiplications and were known to Charles Babbage. Karatsuba observed that $$xy$$ can be computed in only three multiplications, at the cost of a few extra additions. With $$z_0$$ and $$z_2$$ as before and $$z_3=(x_1 + x_0) (y_1 + y_0),$$ one can observe that

\begin{align} z_1 &= x_1 y_0 + x_0 y_1 \\ &= (x_1 + x_0) (y_0 + y_1) - x_1 y_1 - x_0 y_0 \\ &= z_3 - z_2 - z_0. \\ \end{align} $$

Thus only three multiplications are required for computing $$z_0, z_1$$ and $$z_2.$$

Example
To compute the product of 12345 and 6789, where B = 10, choose m = 3. We use m right shifts for decomposing the input operands using the resulting base (Bm = 1000), as:
 * 12345 = 12 · 1000 + 345
 * 6789 = 6 · 1000 + 789

Only three multiplications, which operate on smaller integers, are used to compute three partial results:
 * z2 = 12 × 6 = 72
 * z0 = 345 × 789 = 272205
 * z1 = (12 + 345) × (6 + 789) − z2 − z0 = 357 × 795 − 72 − 272205 = 283815 − 72 − 272205 = 11538

We get the result by just adding these three partial results, shifted accordingly (and then taking carries into account by decomposing these three inputs in base 1000 like for the input operands):
 * result = z2 · (Bm)2 + z1 · (Bm)1 + z0 · (Bm)0, i.e.
 * result = 72 · 10002 + 11538 · 1000 + 272205 = 83810205.

Note that the intermediate third multiplication operates on an input domain which is less than two times larger than for the two first multiplications, its output domain is less than four times larger, and base-1000 carries computed from the first two multiplications must be taken into account when computing these two subtractions.

Recursive application
If n is four or more, the three multiplications in Karatsuba's basic step involve operands with fewer than n digits. Therefore, those products can be computed by recursive calls of the Karatsuba algorithm. The recursion can be applied until the numbers are so small that they can (or must) be computed directly.

In a computer with a full 32-bit by 32-bit multiplier, for example, one could choose B = 231 and store each digit as a separate 32-bit binary word. Then the sums x1 + x0 and y1 + y0 will not need an extra binary word for storing the carry-over digit (as in carry-save adder), and the Karatsuba recursion can be applied until the numbers to multiply are only one digit long.

Time complexity analysis
Karatsuba's basic step works for any base B and any m, but the recursive algorithm is most efficient when m is equal to n/2, rounded up. In particular, if n is 2k, for some integer k, and the recursion stops only when n is 1, then the number of single-digit multiplications is 3k, which is nc where c = log23.

Since one can extend any inputs with zero digits until their length is a power of two, it follows that the number of elementary multiplications, for any n, is at most $$3^{ \lceil\log_2 n \rceil} \leq 3 n^{\log_2 3}\,\!$$.

Since the additions, subtractions, and digit shifts (multiplications by powers of B) in Karatsuba's basic step take time proportional to n, their cost becomes negligible as n increases. More precisely, if T(n) denotes the total number of elementary operations that the algorithm performs when multiplying two n-digit numbers, then

 * $$T(n) = 3 T(\lceil n/2\rceil) + cn + d$$

for some constants c and d. For this recurrence relation, the master theorem for divide-and-conquer recurrences gives the asymptotic bound $$T(n) = \Theta(n^{\log_2 3})\,\!$$.

It follows that, for sufficiently large n, Karatsuba's algorithm will perform fewer shifts and single-digit additions than longhand multiplication, even though its basic step uses more additions and shifts than the straightforward formula. For small values of n, however, the extra shift and add operations may make it run slower than the longhand method.

Implementation
Here is the pseudocode for this algorithm, using numbers represented in base ten. For the binary representation of integers, it suffices to replace everywhere 10 by 2.

The second argument of the split_at function specifies the number of digits to extract from the right: for example, split_at("12345", 3) will extract the 3 final digits, giving: high="12", low="345".

An issue that occurs when implementation is that the above computation of $$(x_1 + x_0)$$ and $$(y_1 + y_0)$$ for $$z_1$$ may result in overflow (will produce a result in the range $$B^m \leq \text{result} < 2 B^m$$), which require a multiplier having one extra bit. This can be avoided by noting that

 * $$z_1 = (x_0 - x_1)(y_1 - y_0) + z_2 + z_0.$$

This computation of $$(x_0 - x_1)$$ and $$(y_1 - y_0)$$ will produce a result in the range of $$-B^m < \text{result} < B^m$$. This method may produce negative numbers, which require one extra bit to encode signedness, and would still require one extra bit for the multiplier. However, one way to avoid this is to record the sign and then use the absolute value of $$(x_0 - x_1)$$ and $$(y_1 - y_0)$$ to perform an unsigned multiplication, after which the result may be negated when both signs originally differed. Another advantage is that even though $$(x_0 - x_1)(y_1 - y_0)$$ may be negative, the final computation of $$z_1$$ only involves additions.

OER Commons

OER Commons is a site which points to open educational material (ie which fits in the broad spectrum of Open Education Resources). This page is to explore how OER Commons can point to Wikiversity material - what material it could focus on, how it would be listed and tagged, what metadata it could use, etc. This page is part of Wikiversity's outreach program.

Vision behind the project:

OER Commons, which was developed in order to stimulate the development of a teaching and learning ecosystem that thrives on interaction, participation and knowledge sharing, aggregates OER within a social networking environment.

OER Commons aggregates existing OER and helps to open new resources within a network that allows teachers, students and self-learners to find materials more easily, but more importantly, to engage users around their development and improvement. Instead of sharing information in traditional environments such as teachers’ lounges and academic conferences, OER Commons offers a way for participants to attach to each educational resource their classroom experiences, teaching or learning strategies, and other knowledge—providing context for others to build upon. In this way, new teachers, non-domain experts (such as parents or others), student learners, and seasoned practitioners have access to shared techniques, notes and recommendations for use, related resources, reviews and quality assessments.

Most importantly, it is a model that allows users to connect content to context, and transforms OER from isolated materials to an integrated process of resource improvement.

For initial themes this project should focus on (eg granularity, reusability), see: Introduction to Learning Objects, and Developing high quality educational resources

What resources could be usefully indexed on OER Commons?
List materials here and reasons why..

OER Commons includes complete courses, homework assignments, lesson plans, labs, etc. that are freely available for instructors and students to use, and for some resources but not all, to modify, remix, or localize to meet the individual needs.

Wikiversity items are very appropriate to include and metadata can be generated for them by following the schema and formatting for OER Commons data. An initial sample of metadata for Wikiversity items has been created by the OER Commons team, including some courses, lessons, learning projects, and collaborative projects, and other types of items may be appropriate as well.

Items with substantial content were chosen over materials with limited content on their main page and/or they were primarily pointing the user to links under development. In addition, a few items, although with currently limited content, presented one or more activities that depend upon the inclusion of user data - like a 'call for participation' that is an interesting model for collaboration and learning.

Using the example of the filmmaking course, records were created for the course "Learning_the_Basics_of_Filmmaking" (very descriptive title) AND the lessons (using their own URL) such as "Thumbnail_Storyboard" as individual items in the system. Extra downloadable materials, such as worksheets don't have much descriptive metadata on their own, and may be better off being noted in a field called "Available Materials" within a lesson or course.

How could indexing resources be best done?
Wikiversity participants are encouraged to add record and keep metadata up to date so that items are more easily found and can be highlighted by the OER Commons network. A metadata template has been proposed. See Templates, Introduction to Learning Objects and Metadata.

How should materials in Wikiversity be tagged?
See: Help:project boxes for a start.

Wikibooks talk:Transwiki log/Articles moved to here

Duplication problem with How to learn a language article
There is a problem involving a duplication of the How to learn a language article that was originally on the en.wikipedia.

The article exists in two separate forms and appears to have been brought in twice:

 * How to learn a language
 * How to learn a language

Each has its own unique editing history. The one in the Transwiki domain is much more active. I would suggest the other version has have its edits merged into the Transwiki version and then be deleted.

Oska 00:38, 28 Dec 2004 (UTC)
 * done. Gentgeen 01:39, 28 Dec 2004 (UTC)

 * Please correct me if I'm wrong but it appears that you have simply deleted the article under the Transwiki namespace and put in a redirect to the other version. If so that is not a good solution as the Transwiki version had been much more active and from memory (as the history page for that version has now disappeared) had about 30 edits made to it since being moved to wikibooks. The other version has only 3 edits made to it. My suggestion was for the articles to be merged, not for the (probably better) Transwiki version to be lost.

 * I would have done the merge myself but I was unsure if I had completely understood what had happened. I have been trying to find out what the protocol is for bringing stuff into wikibooks and what went wrong in this case. I can't do the merge now because it appears one of the versions has been lost.

 * The transwiki namespace seems to be problematic in allowing an article to be unintentionally forked like this. Why not just move the article into its normal title right from the start?

 * Oska 08:41, 28 Dec 2004 (UTC)

I guess I will have to type in text to make this test work. Apologies. --Xyzzyplugh 06:01, 28 March 2006 (UTC)

A bit confused
I have copied and pasted w:User:Endgame1/AutoCAD Layers to Transwiki:AutoCAD Layers. But even though w:Help:Import tells me that this is not enabled on Wikimedia wikis, it seems that there is a way to import with the history intact. Also there seems to be just one person doing all the transwikis. Can someone point me in the right direction of what I'm meant to be doing.--Konstable 01:10, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

 * Well, Special:Import doesn't work on Wikimedia wikis by default. However, things at the English Wikibooks are almost never the default. The developers enabled the import function here a few weeks ago. As stated in the Help page you found, only an admin can perform an import. I'll go see if I can remember how to import a file for you. Gentgeen 10:32, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

 * Yup, that was as easy as I remember, and I still managed to screw it up. The imported page with its history (and talk page) are at Transwiki:Endgame1/AutoCAD Layers and Transwiki talk:Endgame1/AutoCAD Layers. Gentgeen 10:38, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

 * You didn't screw it up, it was just confusing because someone on wp had userified the article. I hadn't imported it yet because (a) the userifying made it a pain in the butt, and (b) totally forgot about it. It just needs to be moved to the nonuserified name... will do now. -- SB_Johnny | talk 13:09, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

 * Sorry, I didn't make that clear. I had to import it twice, as the first time, I imported the talk page over the content page. I fixed it with a speedy delete and re-import of the pages, which is still pretty easy. Even with having to do it twice, it's faster than the old copy-paste transwiki process. Gentgeen 23:23, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

 * Puh, yeah, no kiddin! But next time don't speedy, just move it to Transwiki_talk and then re-import :). -- SB_Johnny | talk 23:33, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

Daniel Tillo

Daniel Vincent Tillo (born June 13, 1996) is an American professional baseball pitcher who is a free agent. He was drafted by the Kansas City Royals in the 3rd round of the 2017 Major League Baseball draft.

Amateur career
Tillo attended Sioux City North High School in Sioux City, Iowa, where he played football, basketball, and baseball. As a junior in 2014, he pitched to a 6-0 record and a 0.98 ERA. Following his senior basketball season in 2015, he was named Iowa Mr. Basketball after averaging 24.5 point, 9.0 rebounds, and 4.4 assists per game. During his senior baseball season, he went 5-1 with a 3.08 ERA while batting .369. Due to being uncertain on whether he wanted to pursue basketball or baseball at the collegiate level, he did not commit to a college for either sport until June of his senior year, when he ultimately decided to play college baseball at the University of Kentucky. After his senior year, he was drafted by the Minnesota Twins in the 39th round of the 2015 Major League Baseball (MLB) draft.

Tillo chose to honor his commitment to Kentucky, and not sign with the Twins. In 2016, his freshman year, he pitched only $7 1⁄3$ innings. Following the year, he transferred to Iowa Western Community College in order to be closer to home and to transition back into a starting pitcher. In 2017, his sophomore year and first year at Iowa Western, he went 5-1 with a 2.86 ERA, striking out 57 over 44 innings and nine games (five starts). After the season, he was drafted by the Kansas City Royals in the third round of the 2017 Major League Baseball draft.

Kansas City Royals
Tillo signed with the Royals and made his professional debut with the Rookie-level Arizona League Royals before being promoted to the Burlington Royals of the Rookie-level Appalachian League. Over ten games (nine starts) between the two clubs, he pitched to a 3-2 record with a 4.42 ERA over $36 2⁄3$ innings. In 2018, he began the season with the Lexington Legends of the Single–A South Atlantic League before being promoted to the Wilmington Blue Rocks of the High–A Carolina League. Starting 26 total games between the two teams, Tillo went 4-6 with a 4.76 ERA, striking out 100 over $134 1⁄3$ innings.

Tillo began the 2019 season back with Wilmington, and was promoted to the Northwest Arkansas Naturals of the Double–A Texas League in July, finishing the season there. Over 29 games (23 starts) for the season, he compiled an 8-9 record with a 3.72 ERA, striking out 85 over $130 2⁄3$ innings. Following the season, he pitched in the Arizona Fall League for the Surprise Saguaros. On October 10, he was selected for the United States national baseball team in the 2019 WBSC Premier 12. In the tournament, he pitched to a 2.08 ERA in three relief appearances covering $4 1⁄3$ innings in which he struck out eight batters.

Tillo did not play a minor league game in 2020 due to the cancellation of the minor league season caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. In July, he underwent Tommy John surgery. On November 20, 2020, he was added to the 40-man roster. On May 3, 2021, Tillo was placed on the 60-day injured list as he continued to recover. He was activated in late June and began rehabbing. On August 9, his rehab ended and he was assigned to Northwest Arkansas. He pitched 29 innings in which he went 0-3 with a 4.03 ERA and 27 strikeouts.

On April 7, 2022, Tillo was designated for assignment by the Royals to make room on the 40-man roster for Bobby Witt Jr. Tillo was released by the Royals organization on April 14. Tillo had not appeared in a major league game at the time of his release.

San Francisco Giants
On April 17, 2022, Tillo signed a minor league contract with the San Francisco Giants. He was assigned to the Sacramento River Cats of the Triple-A Pacific Coast League. Tillo did not immediately appear for Sacramento due to an undisclosed injury, and began a rehab assignment with the rookie–level Arizona Complex League Giants on July 21. He was activated from the injured list on August 23 and assigned to the High–A Eugene Emeralds. Following a short stint with Eugene, Tillo would make 9 appearances split between the Double–A Richmond Flying Squirrels and Sacramento to close out the year.

Tillo returned to Triple–A Sacramento to begin the 2023 season. In 17 appearances (4 starts), he struggled to a 1–6 and 9.59 ERA with 17 strikeouts in $25 1⁄3$ innings pitched. He was released by the Giants organization on June 11, 2023.

Personal life
Tillo is an avid baseball card collector and collects rare cards of himself.

I am looking forward to finding lots of collaborators here, as I have found when writing articles such as we will need here, I am very good at somethings, but less good at others, and the wiki approach, if there is enough volume, really helps with development.

My plan is to start adding some content to get things started, but my additions are going to need extensive revision. They are meant as a starting point only.

1946 Iowa State Cyclones football team

The 1946 Iowa State Cyclones football team represented Iowa State College of Agricultural and Mechanic Arts (later renamed Iowa State University) in the Big Six Conference during the 1946 college football season. In their fifth and final year under head coach Mike Michalske, the Cyclones compiled a 2–6–1 record (1–4 against conference opponents), finished in fifth place in the conference, and were outscored by opponents by a combined total of 239 to 77. They played their home games at Clyde Williams Field in Ames, Iowa.

Two Iowa State players received honors from the Associated Press (AP) or United Press (UP) on the 1946 All-Big Six Conference football team: end Dean Laun (UP-2); and back Dick Howard (UP-3).

There was no team captain selected for the 1946 season. The regular starting lineup consisted of ends Dean Laun and Bob Jensen, tackles Lou Bosnyak and Harle Rollinger, guards Fred Schneider and Norman Anderson, center James Riding, quarterback Don Ferguson, halfbacks Webb Halbert and Vic Weber, and fullback Ray Klootwyk.

After the season
The 1947 NFL Draft was held on December 16, 1946. The following Cyclone was selected.

Analyze the Dailies

 * MOS - without sound
 * On this disk, some of the scenes needed dialog replacement. But in this scene, there is absolutely no recorded dialog.  It was filmed totally without sound.

 * When you do dialog replacement (re-recording the dialog back in the studio), you have lots of problems matching the sound recorded on the movie set vs. recorded in the studio.

 * So why not replace all the dialog. Then you have perfect sound and a perfect match.  This is the way many motion pictures are made.  Look at "The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly."

Wikijunior:South America/The Andes

Part of Wikijunior South America project

What is the history?
The Andes were formed through a process called plate tectonics. The formation of the Andes began in the Jurassic Period. It was during the Cretaceous Period that the Andes began to take their present form, by the uplifting, faulting and folding of sedimentary and metamorphic rocks

What is the Geography?
The Andes form the longest mountain range in the world. The Andes mountain range is the highest mountain range outside Asia. It is more than 5,000 miles (8,000 kilometers) long. The Andes go through seven South American countries: Argentina, Bolivia, Chile, Colombia,Ecuador, Peru, and Venezuela. The Andes range has many active volcanoes, including Cotopaxi, one of the highest active volcanoes in the world.

The southern section is rainy and cool, the central Andes are dry. The northern Andes are typically rainy and warm. The climate is known to change drastically. Rainforests exist just miles away from the snow covered peak, Cotopaxi. The mountains have a large effect on the temperatures of nearby areas.

Russellville Commercial Historic District

The Russellville Commercial Historic District, in Russellville, Alabama, is a historic district which was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2019.

History
Russellville was incorporated in 1819 on former Chickasaw lands. The town was built about 5 mi northeast of the Cedar Creek Furnace and at the intersection of the Gaines Trace and Jackson's Military Road. It was named the county seat of Franklin County in 1820, but lost the seat to the more centrally-located Frankfort in 1849. After Colbert County was split from Franklin County, the seat returned to Russellville in 1891.

Development of the town increased with the construction of the Northern Alabama Railway through the county in 1886. The growth, driven by iron and limestone mining, continued until the Great Depression. Development continued after World War II, but the construction of a bypass on U.S. Highway 43 drew businesses away from downtown.

Russellville's 2017 Downtown Redevelopment Plan identified a twelve block area including 117 buildings as a historic "downtown core" area. There was interest in creating a National Register listing in order to make renovations in the district eligible for 20% tax credits.

Architecture
Most of the buildings in the district date from the early 20th century, as fires in 1908, 1915, and 1921 destroyed many early buildings. An office building at 101 North Jackson Avenue, built in 1899, is the oldest extant building, though it is covered in a 1962 façade. Most of the 1900s through 1920s buildings were built in simple brick style, though some show Italianate and Neoclassical detailing. Significant later buildings include the Colonial Revival post office, constructed in 1934 by the Works Progress Administration, and the Art Moderne Roxy Theatre, built in 1949. The current county courthouse was built in 1955 on the site of the 1892 courthouse that was destroyed by fire.

Marty Robinson (gay activist)

Martin "Marty" Robinson (November 25, 1942 – March 19, 1992) was an American gay activist, "known for his provocative protests."

Activism
On June 28, 1969, Robinson was a participant in the Stonewall Riot, which focused his activism on gay rights. Activist Mark Segal recounts that Robinson and Martha Shelley stood and made speeches from the front door of the Stonewall on June 29, 1969, the second night of the riot. Segal says, they "made the point clear that we were oppressed. We needed to do something. And that meant fight back."

Robinson was a member of the Mattachine Action Committee and co-founded the Gay Liberation Front, where he wrote for their newsletter Come Out!, and co-founded the Gay Activists Alliance (GAA) later that year. He was also a founding member of ACT UP, the National Gay Task Force, and GLAAD. Robinson was one of the "initial fundamental players in T&D", the Treatment and Data group in ACT UP. T&D focussed on getting existing experimental drugs released quickly, letting people with AIDS know where these trials were and how to get into them, and insist that new drugs be developed.

Robinson is credited with developing political "zaps" while at Gay Activists Alliance and was known as "Mr. Zaps". Zaps were chaotic and theatrical interventions intended to attract the attention of the press. GAA's first zaps were aimed at New York's then-mayor, John Lindsay. The group relentlessly interrupted Lindsay's speeches at the Metropolitan Opera and during live TV interviews. Eventually, Lindsay met with the GAA and he announced his support for a bill that prohibited discrimination against LGBTQ people in New York in 1971. "The fact that Lindsay responded to pressure tactics from gays is exciting and frightening. It signals the political potential of our movement. Gays are now wielding political power and eventually they will wield much more power. And that's scary — to be a part of big-time power politics," Robinson said.

On June 24, 1970, with his partner Tom Doerr and three others, he was arrested at a GAA sit-in at the Republican State Committee; they became known as the Rockefeller Five. In November 1970, Robinson appeared with Arthur Evans and Dick Leitsch (President of the Mattachine Society New York) on The Dick Cavett Show to explain the goals of the Gay Liberation Font. They made the group among the first openly gay activists to be prominently featured on a national TV program.

In 1986 he left GLAAD and founded the Lavender Hill Mob because he felt existing pressure groups were not sufficiently radical to effect policy change required by the AIDS crisis.

Personal
Robinson had been a hippie and had dropped out of Brooklyn College where he was majoring in biology. He worked as a union carpenter, specializing in residential remodeling.

Robinson died of AIDS in March 1992. An archive of his papers is held by the New York City LGBT Center. He was Jewish.

Arno Kölblin

Arno Kölblin (9 October 1911 – 19 December 1988) was a German boxer who was the heavyweight champion of Germany and Europe in the 1930s.

Career
Born in Berlin the son of businessman Otto Kölblin and Hedwig Kölblin (née Richter), Kölblin turned professional shortly after leaving school. He made his debut on 12 March 1931 with a points win over Hans Bischoff. In July that year he stopped former German heavyweight champion Ludwig Haymann in the seventh round. These were the only two wins from his first seven fights. The mixed results continued into 1934, Kölblin suffering losses to Vincenz Hower, Motzi Spakow, but three straight wins between June and October that year, including a win over Hans Schönrath led to a German heavyweight title fight against Hower, the defending champion winning comfortably on points.

After a run of eight fights in which he only lost once (to Adolf Heuser), he challenged Hower in August 1936 for the German heavyweight title; Kölblin knocked Hower out in the tenth round to become German champion. He successfully defended the title against Werner Selle and Erwin Klein, and in March 1937 challenged Pierre Charles for the IBU European heavyweight title at the Deutschlandhalle, Charlottenburg. Kölblin won on points to add the European title to his German title.

He successfully defended his German title against Hower in May 1937, but after losing to Eddie Phillips in a non-title fight in November 1937, lost the European title in March 1938 to Heinz Lazek after being disqualified in the second round at the Sportpalast in Schoeneberg for repeated low blows. In November 1938, he also lost the German title, losing on points to Walter Neusel. In August 1939 he was set to fight Tommy Farr in Wales, but with tensions growing between the UK and Germany, the Welsh branch of the British Boxing Board of Control refused to recommend that the Ministry of Labour give him a permit to fight, prompting criticism from the German press, who saw it as a political decision. He beat Lazek in November 1939, and June 1940 challenged Neusel in an attempt to regain the German title, but Neusel again won on points.

Kölblin was out of the ring after November 1942 due to World War II, but returned to boxing after the war, winning eight of his ten post-war fights, but losing two, including an unsuccessful challenge for Hein ten Hoff's German title. His final fight was a fourth-round knockout of Heinz Klose in May 1950. He retired with a record of 50 wins from 78 fights, with 20 losses and 8 draws.

In the early 1950s, Kölblin worked as a coach in the German Democratic Republic. In 1956 he fled to West Germany, where he continued to work as a boxing trainer and later a manager.

Kölblin died on 19 December 1998, at the age of 87.

heres BSS my draft i sent months ago
if you think ur missing information

British Strong Style is a professional wrestling trio of wrestlers Trent Seven, Tyler Bate and Pete Dunne. British Strong Style has appeared and compeated in several promotions such as EVOLVE wrestling, PWG and many others including PROGRESS wrestling which is the promotion BSS formed.

active: 2015-present

promotions: PROGRESS Wrestling, ICW, REV PRO, CHIKARA, WWE,

History: Progress Wrestling.

At Chapter 33, Dunne turned on longtime tag team partner and kayfabe brother Damian Dunne, aligning himself with Trent Seven as British Strong Style. Dunne and Seven defeated The London Riots (James Davis and Rob Lynch) at Chapter 36 to win the Progress Tag Team Championships. Dunne and Seven were entered in a 7-man elimination match for the vacant Progress World Championship. Dunne pinned Jimmy Havoc to become the new Progress World Champion after Tyler Bate came down to the ring and attacked Havoc, thus turning heel and aligning himself with Seven and Dunne forming the BSS trio we all know.

On December 16, Progress management forced Dunne and Seven to vacate the Progress Tag Team Championship after Dunne attempted to give his half of the shield to Bate ending there reign of 82 days. At Chapter 41, British Strong Style once again left with all of the gold in Progress after Seven and Bate defeated the LDRS Of The New School (Marty Scurll and Zack Sabre, Jr.) and The London Riots to win the Progress Tag Team Championships as well as Dunne retaining his title the same night.

Bate made it to the finals of the Super Strong Style 16 Tournament, defeating Pastor William Eaver, Mark Haskins, Matt Riddle, before losing to Travis Banks in the final, seven also was in the strong style 16 tournament but was knocked out in the first round by Matt Riddle. At Chapter 50, Bate and Seven lost the Tag Team Championships to CCK (Chris Brookes and Kid Lykos) ending there 177 day championship reign. It did not take long for bate and seven to invoke the rematch for the tag titles as at chapter 51, they became 2 time tag team champions together (3 in total for trent seven) beating CCK just 14 days after they had lost them. At progress chapter 55 CCK beat Bate and Severn for the tag tittles in a ladder match ending the reign at 63 days, later that night Pete dunne lost the progress world title to Travis Banks ending his long reign of 287 days

WWE. All three men of british strong style where announced for wwe's united kingdom 16 man tournament airing in a two night special to crown the first ever WWE United Kingdom Champion on the 14 and 15 January 2017. All 3 men where big favourites to win the tournament. They all respectively won there matches in the first round of night 1 at the end of that night pete dunne attacked another competitor sam gradwell to the displease of many other competitors and officials such as william regal who had some words with dunne before the show went of the air as did triple h who was impressed with dunne's actions and told to quote "make a name for your self kid". Night 2 of the tournament saw bate make it to the finals after beating jordan devlin and Wolfgang, however seven would be knocked out in the quarter finals to Wolfgang. Dunne would also make it to the finals after beating Sam Gradwell and Mark Andrews. At the end of the night Tyler Bate defeated real life friend Pete Dunne in the finals to become the inaugural United Kingdom Champion at the young age of 19 years old.

After the tournament the 3 men would make a few appearances on NXT with Tyler Bate making his NXT debut on February 1st against Oney Locan, Dunne making his NXT debut on the February 22nd episode of NXT beating Mark Andrews. Trent Seven and Tyler Bate fought against each other on the 15th of February for Tyler's UK Championship which he successfully retained after the match the two friends showed great sportsmanship. On April 4, 2017, Bate, Dunne and Seven along with a few others who participated in the United Kingdom Championship Tournament appeared on 205 Live announcing they would appear on a weekly uk show coming soon.

On the April 26th 2017 episode of NXT, Bate successfully defended his championship against Jack Gallagher. WWE held a special live event on may 7 that would air latter on the network as a U.K. special, in the night Pete Dunne beat Trent Seven to become the number #1 contender for the UK Championship, later that night Tyler Bate once again successfully defended his championship against Mark Andrews. After the match Dunne came down to the ring and had a stare down with long time friend Tyler Bate.

At TakeOver: Chicago Bate and Dunne had there long awaited rematch from January where both men put on match of the night with Dunne beating Tyler to win his first bit of gold in WWE and to become the second United Kingdom Champion in history, ending Bates reign of 125 days. 5 days after Dunne had won the UK Championship he beat Danny Burch on NXT, after that Dunne would defend the tittle on house shows rather then on televised events as well as non-WWE events such as ICW and PROGRESS wrestling which is due to the partnership the promotions have with WWE as well as the special contract that the UK stars had which allowed them to work for other (selected) promotions while still working on some WWE dates.

On the August 23rd episode on NXT Bate and Seven would team up for the first time on WWE programming, in a losing effort against Wolfgang and Dunne, Dunne would have to defend his championship against Wolfgang just weeks later successfully retaining the gold, however after the match both men would be attacked by reDRagon (Kyle O'Riley and Bobby Fish) and Adam Cole, tho Dunne escaped with his tittle Wolfgang would be saved by Tyler Bate and Trent Seven making a tag match for next week on NXT. The next next week Seven and Bate had lost once again this time to reDRagon (Bobby Fish and Kyle O'Reilly).

Dual representation theory

Dual representation theory (DRT) is a psychological theory of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) developed by Chris Brewin, Tim Dalgleish, and Stephen Joseph in 1996. This theory proposes that certain symptoms of PTSD - such as nightmares, flashbacks, and emotional disturbance - may be attributed to memory processes that occur after exposure to a traumatic event. DRT proposes the existence of two separate memory systems that run in parallel during memory formation: the verbally accessible memory system (VAM) and situationally accessible memory system (SAM). The VAM system contains information that was consciously processed and thus can be voluntarily recalled or described. In contrast, the SAM system contains unconsciously processed sensory information that cannot be voluntarily recalled. This theory suggests that the VAM system is impaired during a traumatic event because conscious attention is narrowly drawn to threat-related information. Therefore, memory of the trauma is heavily focused on fear, which affects information processing. This gives rise to PTSD symptoms such as trauma-related cognitions, appraisals, and emotions. The SAM system captures vivid sensory information during the traumatic event, which is automatically recalled through exposure to trauma-related triggers. This system is thought to be responsible for the presence of flashbacks and nightmares in PTSD symptomatology.

Background
Prior to the development of DRT, existing theories of PTSD fell into two camps: social-cognitive theories and information-processing theories. Social-cognitive theories (e.g. Horowitz's stress-response theory, Janoff-Bulman's shattered assumptions theory) focused on the affected individual's assumptions about the world and the emotional and cognitive impact of the trauma on these assumptions. Information-processing theories (e.g. Foa's emotional processing theory ) focus more on attentional biases to threat-related stimuli and how representation and processing of this information may generate intrusive re-experiencing symptoms of PTSD. Brewin and colleagues noted that each of the two theory camps focused on characteristics of PTSD that were distinct and may be explained by different underlying processes. They concluded that existing theories did not adequately capture the full range of PTSD symptoms. They also drew from research on flashbulb memories, which suggested that a special cognitive mechanism may be involved in the encoding of highly emotionally charged memories.

Clinical implications
According to DRT, the symptoms of PTSD arise when memory processes interact with other pre-trauma, peri-trauma, and post-trauma factors. Some of these factors may include severity and duration of the trauma, existing schemas about the self and the world, social support, and the presence of guilt or shame. Based on these interactions, Brewin and colleagues proposed that there are three possible outcomes of post-traumatic emotional processing: completion/integration, chronic emotional processing, and premature inhibition of processing.

Completion/integration
Completion/integration occurs when traumatic memories have been consciously processed and integrated with the individual’s existing memories and cognitive schemas. This outcome represents recovery from the effects of trauma exposure and minimal post-traumatic symptoms. For completion/integration to occur, there must be repeated exposure to the traumatic memory and associated stimuli to allow habituation to occur. Through habituation, the traumatized individual is increasingly able to regulate emotion when exposed to the traumatic memory. This is thought to occur as the individual is repeatedly exposed to SAMs and integrates sensory information about the trauma into conscious memory. When this occurs alongside conscious efforts to integrate the trauma with the individual’s existing schemas, successful emotional processing of the trauma is thought to occur. DRT predicts that completion/integration would be characterized by a lack of attentional bias towards trauma-related stimuli.

Chronic emotional processing
Chronic emotional processing can occur due to severe or ongoing trauma, lack of social support, or inability to integrate the traumatic experience into existing schemas. This happens when conscious and unconscious memory processes related to the trauma are not successfully integrated. In such cases, VAMs and SAMs of the trauma may be chronically processed, which means that the person is unable to prevent the intrusion of SAMs into their consciousness. They may also have trouble shifting their existing schemas about themselves and the world. This can lead to intrusive symptoms stemming from SAMs and maladaptive preoccupation with the trauma. The person may also have attention and memory biases toward trauma-related stimuli. Moreover, according to DRT, mood symptoms such as depression and anxiety may develop as a byproduct of chronic emotional processing.

Premature inhibition of processing
Failure to integrate the trauma with existing memories and schemas may occur due to inhibited emotional processing of traumatic memory. This occurs when an individual avoids internal (e.g. thoughts, emotions, sensations) and external (e.g. people, places, situations) stimuli that activate trauma-related SAMs and VAMs. In premature inhibition, avoidance allows the individual to inhibit the intrusion of SAMs into consciousness; this hinders the integration of SAMs into the VAM system. The individual remains vulnerable to emotional distress when trauma-related stimuli are encountered. Attentional bias toward trauma-related stimuli is likely present and may be coupled with impaired memory of the trauma.

Support
Studies have examined the effect of performing visuospatial tasks during memory consolidation of distressing stimuli. These studies have found that playing the game TETRIS after exposure to distressing stimuli reduces the number of intrusive thoughts. This may mean visuospatial tasks compete with sensory processing of distressing stimuli, therefore impairing this type of processing results in fewer intrusive experiences. Research into the human experience of natural disaster and crisis recognises that there is a large emotional component that requires addressing in order to prevent post traumatic mental health difficulties. In order to process this, an individual needs to make space to reflect on the experience and engage with the emotions connected with this experience. Through this process, growth in resilience and psychological flexibility occurs. In addition, when this process is supported collectively, increases in solidarity and community engagement are found. Conversely, when individuals do not process their emotional experiences, they are less engaged with their community, more emotionally reactive, and more likely to experience depressive symptoms.

Criticism
Some studies have found that providing contextual information before exposure to distressing stimuli actually increases the frequency of intrusive thoughts. This appears to contradict DRT which posits that when contextual information (in VAM) and sensory information (in SAM) integrate, this results in decreased intrusive symptoms. DRT has also been criticized for a lack of explanation about how the VAM and SAM systems communicate with each other.

Economic Classroom Experiments/Guessing Game

Students are asked to pick a number between 0 and 100, with the winner of the contest being the student that is closest to 2/3 times the average number picked of all students.

Instructions

 * Guess a number 0 to 100.
 * The guess closest to 2/3 the average number wins a prize.
 * Ties will be broken randomly.
 * Please write your name and your guess on the piece of paper and turn it in to me.
 * Don’t let others see your guess!

After collecting responses, show the results, explain them, and rerun it.

 * Wharton average 40
 * Caltech UG average 30
 * Economics Phds 25
 * CEO average also 40.
 * What would we expect if everyone is rational and thinks everyone else is rational?
 * Now repeat this!

Results
One may want to start by asking the students what guess would be irrational (above 67). Then ask the students what they guessed and why. For instance, pick a student who guessed 33 and ask them why. It is then fairly easy to explain the equilibrium of everyone guessing 0 along the lines of Nagel (1995), who first ran an experiment on this game. Nagel found that people based their guesses on levels of rationality and found lumps of guesses on: level 0 rationality (guessing 50); level 1 rationality, best response to 50 (guessing 33); level 2 rationality, best response to 33 (guessing 22); etc. One can then say that equilibrium theory doesn't necessarily do well.

After explaining the equilibrium and showing the initial results (or results from last year), one can now rerun it. Results will come now much much closer to the equilibrium.

Discussion
Moral of the Story
 * Sometimes markets aren’t always rational or in “equilibrium”. This Guessing game is like a market bubble.
 * Sometimes theory based on rationality doesn’t predict perfectly.
 * You shouldn’t ignore theory (even when it is wrong). Otherwise, it may catch you expectedly.
 * Star Trek: Kirk had several advisors with different views of the world. Spock used logic. Bones emotions. Scotty practicality. When analyzing a problem, it is worthwhile, like Captain Kirk, to take into account several views including the fully rational one.

Keynesian beauty contest
A Keynesian beauty contest is a concept developed by John Maynard Keynes and introduced in Chapter 12 of his masterwork, General Theory of Employment Interest and Money (1936), to explain price fluctuations in equity markets. Keynes described the action of rational agents in a market using an analogy based on a contest that was run by a London newspaper where entrants were asked to choose a set of six faces from 100 photographs of women that were the "most beautiful". Everyone who picked the most popular face was entered into a raffle for a prize.

A naive strategy would be to choose the six faces that, in the opinion of the entrant, are the most beautiful. A more sophisticated contest entrant, wishing to maximize his chances of winning a prize, would think about what the majority perception of beauty is, and then make a selection based on some inference from his knowledge of public perceptions. This can be carried one step further to take into account the fact that other entrants would also be making their decision based on knowledge of public perceptions. Thus the strategy can be extended to the next order, and the next, and so on, at each level attempting to predict the eventual outcome of the process based on the reasoning of other rational agents.

 * “It is not a case of choosing those [faces] which, to the best of one’s judgment, are really the prettiest, nor even those which average opinion genuinely thinks the prettiest. We have reached the third degree where we devote our intelligences to anticipating what average opinion expects the average opinion to be. And there are some, I believe, who practise the fourth, fifth and higher degrees.” (Keynes, General Theory of Employment Interest and Money, 1936).

Keynes believed that similar behavior was at work within the stock market. This would have people pricing shares not based on what they thought their fundamental value was, but rather based on what they think everyone else thinks their value was, or what everybody else would predict the average assessment of value was.

Guessing Game comparison to a Beauty Contest
What Keynes explicitly describes is only when $$p=1$$. However, his notion of degrees of rationality does describe the behavior in experimental results (with many choosing a peak around 33 and 22 for $$p=2/3$$). Other, more explicit scenarios help to convey the notion of the beauty contest as a convergence to Nash Equilibrium when the agents in the game behave perfectly rationally. The most famous such example is a contest where entrants are asked to pick a number between 0 and 100, with the winner of the contest being the person that is closest to 2/3 the average number picked for all contestants.
