Talk:List of law firms in Uganda

previous deletion and development
Notes on history: I am trying to get back to developing this. See also List of law firms in Africa (currently a redlink) and List of law firms (currently a redirect to a U.S.-only list). -- do ncr  am  15:42, 10 October 2016 (UTC)
 * This list-article was deleted as outcome of Articles for deletion/List of law firms in Uganda in June, 2014.
 * This had been created in April of 2014 in this edit by Ray Clyde. Unfortunately User:Ray Clyde was banned/blocked.
 * I came to this when some individual Ugandan law firm articles were at AFD, I think, and it was natural for them to link to here or to be merged to here.
 * I requested the deleted article and developed it as a draft, and it was promoted by AFC to mainspace in February 2015

Pulsed field magnet

A pulsed field magnet is a strong electromagnet which is powered by a brief pulse of electric current through its windings rather than a continuous current, producing a brief but strong pulse of magnetic field. Pulsed field magnets are used in research in fields such as materials science to study the effect of strong magnetic fields, since they can produce stronger fields than continuous magnets. The maximum field strength that continuously-powered high-field electromagnets can produce is limited by the enormous waste heat generated in the windings by the large currents required. Therefore by applying brief pulses of current, with time between the pulses to allow the heat to dissipate, stronger currents can be used and thus stronger magnetic fields can be generated. The magnetic field produced by pulsed field magnets can reach between 50 and 100 T, and lasts several tens of milliseconds.

Latin/Phonology

Latin phonology should be somewhat familiar to many readers, since it is an ancestor to the phonological systems of many of the world's most popular languages. In addition, one system of Latin phonology remains alive today, in institutions such as the Roman Catholic Church; this system is known as ecclesiastical Latin.

The Roman alphabet has five basic vowels: a, e, i, o, u. In addition, there are five diphthongs: ae, au, eu, oe, ou. There are seventeen basic consonants: b, c, d, f, g, h, j, l, m, n, p, q, r, s, t, v, x. There are three letters that are found only in foreign borrowings: two consonants (k, z) and one vowel (y). There are also a few consonant digraphs. To further complicate things, in many texts i and j are both written i (very common) while both u and v are often both written u (less common, and found in some modern printings) or both written v (very common in ancient inscriptions). For more detail, see Latin spelling and pronunciation on Wikipedia.

Pronunciation Guide
(using IPA notation)

Diphthongs and Diagraphs
A diphthong is a vowel combination that is pronounced as a single sound. It is often described as a ‘glide’ between two vowels. A diagraph is a similar combination--the only difference between the two is that both the vowels are distinctly pronounced.

Wikiversity:Course formats

In search of Wikiversity course formats that are well-suited for the wiki user interface.

Background and proposals
In November 2005 the Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees rejected the first Wikiversity project proposal and instructed the Wikiversity community to modify the proposal to "exclude online-courses". The Board requested that the Wikiversity community "clarify [the] concept of e-learning" that will guide Wikiversity. The modified Wikiversity project proposal that was approved by the Board calls for two major components of Wikiversity:1) learning materialsand2) learning activities.The Wikiversity model for e-learning is discussed at the Wikiversity Education Portal.

If we assume that "exclude online-courses" meant to avoid traditional and conventional online courses, then which formats of learning projects would be acceptable wiki-courses?

Wikiversity:Practicums
I've proposed another namespace (or boilerplate, at least) that can perhaps split up the burgeoning Topic: namespace and add what I think is a useful structural element to WV. I call it the Practicum boilerplate. It is partially inspired by the Learning to learn a wiki way presentation, which I liked so much that I redirected Learning Group in the main namespace to it.

The Practicum: namespace would be a learning environment for PAR, based on participation, action, research, empowerment, community-building, positive social change, public discourse and critical reflection. I think this meshes well with the pedagogy of "real-world" academia.

Practicum:Multilingualism (broad prime example) – I was working on the Multilingual worksheet resource, and serveral others at the same time when I concieved of this. A Multilingualism practicum would have to integrate Learning Groups, Materials, Schools, Portals, Categories, Templates, Help, Talk and many things at once. It could however produce an Interwiki-international macro-community of certified translators and provide them with tools to expedite the work of translating Wikiversity.

Practicum:Sounds of the Wikiverse (another broad example) – I've sortof primed all this up in peripherals to the Wikiversity the Movie project, (tentative name, Wikio) combining everything from lessons like Introduction to Portuguese and groups like A Wikivervity Garage Band through Topic:Internet Audio building cross-school collaborations between School:Music, School:Journalism with ecclectic stubs to School:Computer Science toward a complex holistic form, which to me is a definative Academic Practicum.

Just thinking out loud. Follow the breadcrumbs I've left and let me know what ya'll think. CQ 04:03, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

Eric Singer (artist)

Eric Singer is a multi-disciplinary artist, musician and  software,  electrical,  computer, robotics, and  medical device engineer. He is known for his interactive art and technology works, robotic and electronic musical instruments, fire art, and guerilla art.

Education
Singer holds a B.S. in electrical and computer engineering from Carnegie Mellon University, a diploma in music synthesis from Berklee College of Music and an M.S. in computer science from New York University.

Singer has been an adjunct professor at both NYU and CMU, designing and teaching graduate courses in electronic art and music, interactive performance and controller design..

Electronic, computer and robotic music
Singer is known internationally as a creator of alternative MIDI controllers and musical instruments, interactive and algorithmic music software and robotic musical instruments.

Singer began creating interactive performance software in 1990 as an assistant to Dr. Richard Boulanger. Written primarily in the Max multimedia programming environment, this included software for MIDI controllers such as the Radio Baton and Power Glove. He quickly became known as a Max expert, releasing a series of popular Max plug-ins for video tracking, electronic conducting and artificial life bird-flocking simulation.

In the mid-90s, Singer began creating his own novel electronic instruments. One early instrument of note was the Sonic Banana, a rubber tube with bend sensors to control arpeggiators and other generative music. Later instruments included the GuiroTron, ChimeOTron, SlinkOTron, SlimeOTron, CycloTron and MIDI Steering Wheel (for Joshua Fried). Many of these instruments were featured in his 2011 solo retrospective "Living in the Future." Singer also designed and marketed a sensor and robotic interface board, MidiTron, to aid other artists in creating their own MIDI instruments.

In Brooklyn, NY in 2000, Singer founded the pioneering musical robotics group LEMUR: League of Electronic Musical Urban Robots. Over the next decade, Singer led the group to create a large body of robotic musical instruments; produce performances with renowned musicians; present installations at well-known museums and galleries; and open LEMURplex, an early makerspace for performance, gallery shows, artist residencies, teaching and fabrication.

LEMUR presented installations and performances throughout the world, at venues including Lincoln Center, the Whitney Museum, the National Gallery of Art and the Virgin Festival. LEMUR also collaborated with musicians and composers on live human/robot performances as well as solo works for LEMUR's instruments. Notable musicians and groups included pop artists They Might Be Giants, Lee Ranaldo of Sonic Youth, JG Thirlwell, Morton Subotnick, Ikue Mori and George Lewis.

In 2009, Grammy-winning guitarist Pat Metheny commissioned LEMUR to build a large robotic orchestra, or orchestrion. This resulted in Metheny's 2010 Orchestrion album and world tour, with LEMUR instruments as his backing band.

After to moving to Pittsburgh in 2009, Singer established as a solo artist under the name SingerBots and continues to do performances and large commissioned installations. In 2014, he was commissioned to create a robotic orchestra for the Lido Cabaret in Paris. The resulting 40+ piece orchestrion is featured nightly as the club's dinner band. In 2018, Singer built the SpiroPhone, a spiraling robotic xylophone sculpture that lives as a permanent installation in RoboWorld at the Carnegie Science Center.

From 2012 to 2014, Singer consulted for Disney Imagineering on the Touche project to enable plants to play music in response to touch.

Singer has also created software for generative music and algorithmic improvisation, including an animated improvising saxophone player at the NYU Media Research Lab in 1996 and a generative drum and percussion program for an installation at the Beall Center in 2005. In 2018, he appeared on WNYC's Science Friday to discuss the topic of computer improvisation in music.

Fire and guerilla arts
In 1997, Singer founded the New York City Burning Man Regional Association and served as the NYC regional contact for two years, organizing events and popularizing the festival in the New York area.

Around the same time, Singer co-founded the influential Brooklyn arts combine The Madagascar Institute, with Chris Hackett and Ryan O'Connor

Over the next decade, The Madagascar Institute would become known as a leading underground arts group with over 100 members, producing machine and fire art, expansive themed warehouse parties, guerilla street spectacles and theatrical events in abandoned urban buildings. In 2002, Singer led a Madagascar Institute team to victory on The Learning Channel reality TV show Junkyard Wars.

Singer has been involved in fire arts since the inception of the Madagascar Institute, creating pyrotechnic spectacles for many events and collaborating on a Pyrophone (MIDI-controlled flamethrower instrument). In 2000, he created Flaming Simon, a life-size fire-based version of the Simon electronic game. In 2008, he premiered PyroStomp, a walk-on step sequencer which controlled an eight cannon pyrophone. For the 2017 Roboexotica festival, he built a robot to create flaming cocktails.

In Pittsburgh, Singer created and produced the Pyrotopia Festival of Fire Arts, first in 2012 and again in 2014. These large-scale outdoor events featured fire performers, art, games, installations, glass-blowing, forging and fire science demonstrations.

Performer
Singer has been a saxophonist since an early age. Throughout the 90s, he co-founded, performed in and recorded with a number of popular ska bands in Boston and New York, including Agent 13, Metro Stylee, The Allstonians, The Slackers, Stubborn All-Stars and Skinnerbox. He can be heard on commercially released recordings by these and other bands.

Singer studied improv comedy in New York City at the Upright Citizens Brigade Theater and has studied and performed in Pittsburgh at the Arcade Comedy Theater, Unplanned Comedy and Steel City Improv Theater. He has formed and performed with a number of Pittsburgh long-form improv groups and duos. He has written sketch comedy and performed in the Pittsburgh comedy duo The Problem with comedian Ian Insect. He currently performs in Philadelphia.

Medical device engineering
Since 2014, Singer has worked in the field of medical device engineering. From 2016 to 2018, Singer was part of Cerebroscope, a medical startup creating an experimental EEG device for monitoring cortical spreading depolarizations (CSDs) in stroke and TBI patients. Singer designed and fabricated the device, called CerebroPatch, which began clinical trials in 2018 at the University of New Mexico Hospital.

Following this, he has worked as a software engineer for various medical device companies including Philips Respironics, Moberg Research and Molecular Devices.

Talk:SwiatPrzychodni.pl

Objection to the deletion
In my opinion provided sources of notability are on a border what's accepted in Wikipedia. But given people don't tend to create secondary sources about webpages, I think the rules should be less strictly enforced compared to e.g. describing historic event.

In this case there's only one true reference of "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject" - the article describing similar websites by trojmiasto.pl. I think lack of multiple coverage by secondary sources is compensated by multitude of references in other media, scientific journals and government documents. In my opinion e.g. fact that court verdict was based on data presented on the website, makes website not "one of millions identical webpages", but makes it notable.

Also I would like to point out that article's category is "Polish websites". By itself Polish websites won't ever achieve "wordly" notability (the moment it becomes noticed by the world, someone translates it). Given such category is accepted in Wikipedia, I think notability should be considered in a more narrow way. In my my opinion described subject is notable among Polish websites and the article should no be deleted.

If you disagree, please let me know if you consider subject by itself not notable or you think that if only someone out of the primary sources would create single secondary article, it would be enough to claim - it's ok to put the subject on Wikipedia.

--Pawelgniaz (talk) 14:26, 22 September 2019 (UTC)
 * , the problem is not whether the website is "one of millions of identical webpages" or not, the issue is whether we have enough information written in reliable, independent sources to write an article without resorting to original research. As written right now, we do not. However, I was able to find some more brief mentions in news reporting, which suggest to me that it may be possible for someone with more familiarity with Polish sources to find something substantial. As such, I'm going to take a step back and wait for another new page patroller to take a look at this article. signed,Rosguill talk 18:07, 22 September 2019 (UTC)
 * On review, while the coverage in secondary sources is extremely brief and better sources should be found, the fact that this coverage is spread out over a significant period of time (i.e. is not all about the same report) is a strong enough indicator of WP:NPOSSIBLE that I'm ok with letting this out of the new page queue. signed,Rosguill talk 18:56, 22 September 2019 (UTC)

Brainternet is a project of students at the University of the Witwatersrand, a neurocomputer interface that reads data on the activity of the human brain for the subsequent use of this information for machine learning.

As a tool for data collection, scientists used the 14-channel wireless electroencephalograph EMOTIV EPOC, the average cost of which is about 800 US dollars (2017). Sensors of electroencephalograph collect electrical impulses of the cerebral cortex in 14 areas of the frontal, temporal, parietal and occipital lobes. After the collection, the data is processed by the method of reference vectors, one of the types of training with the teacher. Further, on the basis of these data, the algorithm links the work of the brain - invisible to the person's eye - and the specific physical operations of the person in the external environment. As a result, Brainternet is able to determine some actions of an individual, for example, based on the data received, the algorithm can determine whether a person is standing or walking.

The project is of great importance both for improving machine learning and neurocomputer interfaces, and for science in general.

"Today there is not enough visual (for the layman) data on how the human brain processes information. Brainternet is designed to make it easier for the user to understand the principles of the work of his own brain and brains of other people."

Template talk:Undiscovered element

Majuscules
For the moment, the template uses a majuscule, which is an unintended effect. I don't have the proficiency to fix it, please contribute if you can. I am by no way a template expert. David Latapie (✒ | @) 10:37, 11 August 2006 (UTC) David Latapie (✒ | @) 15:53, 29 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Fixed, thanks to Ilmari Karonen.

Confusing in Small Amounts
"Transuranic elements (those beyond uranium) are, except for microscopic quantities, always artificially produced..." I think this sentence isn't worded well. I'd like to change it to be, "Transuranic elements (those beyond uranium) are found in microscopic quantities in nature, and therefore are artificially produced..." Any feedback on if I should go ahead with this or not? --Mechcozmo 06:46, 21 October 2006 (UTC) David Latapie (✒ | @) 15:51, 29 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Go ahead

Oklo
The Oklo natural fission reactor produced significant (i.e., non-microscopic) quantities of plutonium. This stands as an exception to the wording of this template. It should be re-worded so that the distinction need not be made. For example, whether a particular batch of plutonium was or was not artificially produced, was or was not produced in microscopic quantities, is completely irrelevant to whether plutonium has stable isotopes or not. It doesn't. It has some very long-lived radioactive isotopes which can be produced in large quantities by non-artificial means in very particular circumstances, but it is not stable. Nor should the template say "transuranic elements are never stable" because that is potentially untrue. No transuranic element is currently known to be stable, but there are several future candidates that could be.

Short of changes of the above nature, I am for the deletion or de-implementation of this template in the transuranic element article pages. If an article really needs this template in it, what it really needs is to be deleted entirely, because it has no significant information in it. --<IP_ADDRESS> 14:08, 28 July 2007 (UTC)

Cross-collateralization

Cross-collateralization is a term used when the collateral for one loan is also used as collateral for another loan. If a person has borrowed from the same bank a home loan secured by the house, a car loan secured by the car, and so on, these assets can be used as cross-collaterals for all the loans. If the person pays off the car loan and wants to sell the car, the bank may veto the deal because the car is still used to secure the home loan and other loans. Technically, cross-collateralization expires when the borrower has no outstanding loans with the bank. In the context of bankruptcy, cross-collateralization also means the collateralization of general unsecured prepetition debt by collateral securing postpetition loans.

Another example of cross-collateralization occurs when an individual may have a checking account and a loan at the same bank. If the individual becomes past due on the loan, the financial institution may take money out of the bank account or freeze the account until the loan becomes current. Cross-collateralization reduces the lender's risk; hence, credit unions often offer cross-collateralized loans as a way to give borrowers lower interest rates.

Royalty advances paid by a publisher to authors of multiple books or to creators of multiple video games are often cross-collateralized; in book publishing this is sometimes called "basketing". In this scheme, the publisher pays no royalty checks to the creator until all of the books (or video games, or other works of authorship) have "earned out" their advances.

In the movie industry, cross-collateralization clauses in production deals allow the funding studio to recoup a part of its losses for money losing films from hit films produced.

Inferior pulvinar nucleus

Inferior pulvinar nucleus (nucleus pulvinaris inferior) is one of four traditionally anatomically distinguished nuclei of the pulvinar of the thalamus. The other three nuclei of the pulvinar are called lateral, anterior and medial pulvinar nuclei.

Afferent

 * Inferior pulvinar nucleus, together with its lateral and medial nuclei, receives afferent input from superior colliculus.

Efferent

 * Inferior pulvinar nucleus, together with its lateral nucleus, both have projections to the early visual cortical areas.

Functions

 * Inferior pulvinar nucleus, together with its lateral and medial nuclei, is thought to be important for the initiation and compensation of saccadic movements of the eyes. Those nuclei also participate in the visual attention regulation.

Clinical significance
Lesions of the inferior pulvinar nucleus can result in neglect syndromes and attentional deficits.

Felizes para Sempre?

Felizes para Sempre? (English: Happily Ever After?) is a Brazilian television miniseries directed by Fernando Meirelles and written by Euclydes Marinho. It aired from 26 January to 6 February 2015 on Rede Globo.

It is a remake of Quem Ama não Mata by Euclydes Marinho, and is written by himself, Angela Carneiro, Denise Bandeira and Márcia Prates, with collaborations by Bia Fonseca Corrêa do Lago. Luciano Moura, Rodrigo Meirelles, Paulo Morelli and Fernando Meirelles directed it.

Plot
The series is set in Brasília and follows five couples from the same family. Dionisio (Perfeito Fortuna) and Norma Drummond (Selma Egrei) met in 1968 amidst an anti-Brazilian military dictatorship demonstration. He was a military police officer and she was a sociology student. Despite both being in opposite political sides, they fell in love and had three children: Claudio (Enrique Diaz), Hugo (João Miguel) and Joel (João Baldasserini). Dionisio is suffering from erectile dysfunction and finds himself giving in to a past affair, Olga (Cássia Kis Magro), who is visiting the city. Meanwhile, Norma is constantly being stalked by the much younger Guilherme (Antonio Sabóia), who also teaches at her university.

Cláudio is a millionaire corrupt businessman and playboy, owner of a large engineering company, and is married to Marília (Maria Fernanda Cândido), an art restorator. They both had a son, João Cláudio, who drowned in their swimming pool at the age of five, leaving them traumatized. Marília regrets it's been long since the last time she felt any pleasure with Cláudio, and he usually cheats her with several different women, usually prostitutes. One of these prostitutes is the bisexual Denise (Paolla Oliveira), who also goes by her work name Danny Bond, in reference to James Bond. She is married to Daniela (Martha Nowill), who is initially unaware of her job as a prostitute.

Hugo is a shooting sport enthusiast and engineer who suffers from alcoholism. He works at Cláudio's company, though he doesn't get along with his brother. He is married to Tânia (Adriana Esteves), a famous plastic surgeon. Contrary to Cláudio's and Marília's situation, they have too much sex and Tânia doesn't always feel like doing it. Eventually, Tânia gives in to a past passion, David (Bruno Giordano), who offers her a position as his business partner in his prestigious clinic. Hugo and Tânia have a 16-year-old son, Hugo Jr., who takes part of political demonstrations and amidst one of them, he meets Mayra (Sílvia Lourenço), an older black bloc woman who starts dating him.

Joel is the adoptive son and also works at Cláudio's office. He starts his part in the series by announcing his amicable divorce with his wife, the personal trainer Suzana (Carol Abras), but their relationship grows more difficult every day, with Joel becoming obsessed and aggressive to her and she trying to start a new life with a local farmer called Buza (Rodrigo dos Santos).

Banker Edemar Cid Ferreira's house was used as Tânia's clinic. The characters' names are a tribute to the actors who worked at the original series.

Reception

On Twitter, seven terms related to ‘Happily Ever After?’ entered the Trending Topics in Brazil, among them #felizesparasempre (original title), #ripdannybond (in reference to the actress's character) and #obrigadoadrianaesteves (reference to actress Adriana Esteves, who played Carminha in Brazil Avenue).

Talk:Electronics/Simplifying Capacitor/Inductor Networks

From the Wiki page: Capacitors in series are the same as increasing the distance between two capacitor plates. As well, it should be noted that if you place two capacitors of a 100V max rating together in series, you can charge them both (in series) to 200V without destruction.

reference: http://www.oz.net/~coilgun/theory/capacitors2.htm (I could probably get a better reference, however i think this one will prove my point)

suggests this is only true if the two capacitors are identical. And warns against doing this in practice.

Gregor Hildebrandt

Gregor Hildebrandt (born 1974 in Bad Homburg, West Germany) is a German contemporary artist who lives and works in Berlin, Germany

Early life and education
Hildebrandt graduated from Hochschule der Künste, Berlin, in 2002, after he studied previously at the University of Mainz between 1995 and 1999. He was awarded a Studienstiftung scholarship between 1998 and 2002 and received a scholarship at the Deutsches Studienzentrum in Venice the following year, while still a student.

Work
In his artistic practice, Hildebrandt makes extensive use of pre-recorded cassette tapes as material in his pictures and installations. The tapes are applied directly onto canvases and photographic prints and in room-sized installations. In his paintings, he adheres the coated side of cassette tapes onto a canvas, presses on it with a brush or roller, and rips the tape off to create the defined, yet sporadic lines on his works. He repeats the process before finally gluing them onto the canvas for good to create what he calls the “negative” painting. For sculptures, he shapes vinyl records into bowls, sometimes stacking them to create what the artist calls a “sonic wall made of pillars of records.”

Hildebrandt started thinking about incorporating audio into his practice during his time at the University of the Arts in Berlin. In the late 1990s, the artist recorded 'Falschgeld' by German experimental group Einstürzende Neubauten before cutting the magnetic tape out and pasting it into his sketchbook. Hildebrandt's signature canvases known for its magnetic tape covering were developed in the 2000s, gradually increasing in size to take on architectural dimensions. The 2021 large-scale installation Hirnholzparkett (2015), shown at G2 Kunsthalle in Leipzig, incorporated 35,000 audiocassette tapes into record-sized reels, cast into epoxy resin and layered across the floor.

Although Hildebrandt's work makes formal reference to Minimalism, the addition of a great number of subjective and autobiographical citations actually deliberately repudiates this strategy. For Hildebrandt, the cassette tape as artistic medium, especially in its original function of storage medium, fulfils an important function: it enables the artist to add a further “invisible” dimension to his pictures. Playing with perception in this way is a major characteristic of his work; the picture is completed in the head of the viewer. If the contemplation of his art incorporates the heterogeneous cosmos of Gregor Hildebrandt's references to music, film, literature and, last but not least, art history, his works turn out to be complex montages, in which pictorial associations from different spheres combine and interpenetrate. Hildebrandt employs the material of his every-day environment without aesthetic or theoretical inhibition and playfully links aspects of conceptual art and minimal art with his personal life and experience of pop culture.

Kristina Ikić Baniček

Kristina Ikić Baniček (born 22 September 1975) is a Croatian politician who has been mayor of Sisak since 2013. She is a member of the center-left Social Democratic Party of Croatia (SDP).

Early life and education
Kristina Ikić Baniček was born in the town of Sisak on 22 September 1975. After finishing elementary and high school in her hometown, she moved to the Croatian capital of Zagreb where she attended University Department for Croatian Studies of the University of Zagreb where she eventually graduated sociology and croatology (cultural study program dedicated to the study of Croatian cultural and national identity ).

Career
In 2002, Ikić Baniček started working as a counselor for EU funds in the Croatian mine action center. Between 2001 and 2005, she served as a councilwoman at the Assembly of the Sisak-Moslavina County, and between 2005 and 2013 as a councilwoman in the Council of the City of Sisak. At the 2013 local elections she contested 10-year mayor of Sisak, conservative Dinko Pintarić (HDZ), lost first round, but surprisingly emerged as a winner in the second round. She was reelected at the 2017 local elections.

In 1996, she got involved in the work of SDP Youth Forum, and has been active in the SDP's Sisak branch since 1999.

Other
On 25 June 2017, during the celebration of the Anti-Fascist Struggle Day in the woods of Brezovica near Sisak, Ikić Baniček during her speech publicly criticized Mayor of Zagreb Milan Bandić stating: "The relativisation of Ustasha crimes has gone so far that some self-proclaimed anti-fascists (referring to Bandić) give the city awkward. They hypocritically come here among us and lay wreaths, while rewarding Ustasha counterfeiters such as Jakov Sedlar. (...) You cannot be a salonist anti-fascist and if necessary put an anti-fascist badge on lapel, and then remove it the next day. Anti-fascism is an attitude that is not subject to various interpretations depending on the situation. One must always fight against evil everywhere, and not look away with one eye, if, for example, one misses five hands in the Assembly" (referring to Bandić's coalition with 5 Zagreb Assembly's conservative councilors from the Independents for Croatia party whose member is among others Zlatko Hasanbegović who was accused of relativizing Ustashe crimes committed during WWII).

Private life
Kristina Ikić Baniček lives in Sisak with her husband Darko Baniček and their two children.

As user Willbb234 said, if this article were to be deleted then there are others that would need to be deleted as well. Everything in the article is factually correct, has citations, and can also be confirmed by the league's website. The club exists, and having a wikipedia page adds to its credibility, furthering the opportunities for the players at the club. To delete the article would actively harm real people's lives and future possibilities, as the club is a benevolent entity helping people in difficult life circumstances through the sport of soccer. Furthermore, by not allowing the club to have an active wikipedia page, you are hindering the reputation and development of the sport of soccer in the United States. Most clubs operating this high up in a nations league system will have a wikipedia page, and it is important for international player transfers coming from KidSuper Samba that the club has a legitimate web presence. Furthermore, there are clubs playing in the lower divisions of the Cosmopolitan Soccer League that have fewer sources and less professionally maintained article pages, such as Williamsburg International FC. There's no reason to target this harmless article for deletion, please move on. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Trallazo4567 (talk • contribs) 07:21, 23 September 2019 (UTC)

I am this sock puppeteer, but I cannot confess to it under the original IP address, since I can't get my old IP addresses back. My phone just randomly gets a new one each time I turn on mobile data. I have ADHD, and poop is hilarious, and I discovered that, with this sock puppeteering scheme, nobody can tell my dad on me, since you don't have a clue who my dad is. That is why I became "The Great Sock Puppetmaster of Poop". As an ADHD-only supervillain, I revert to my secret identity whenever I take my medications. This is because sock puppets and poop are only super funny when I'm off my meds! So, waste your time investigating some ADHD kid for sock puppetry if you want, but I would think you would have bigger fish to fry. I am going stop sock puppetry now anyways, so if you want to "investigate", then whatever. And if you find this edit offensive for some reason, tell me why so I know what to change. Don't just revert it and give me an insult (like the word troll) as the edit summary. The notice said to tell if it was me, and that's all I doing. I'm getting bored with my sock puppet sipervillain, so I am done. Do whatever you want to this IP address, since I won't be keeping it after this edit. I am done sock puppeteering, and maybe someday another ADHD nerd will get bored and carry on the name of the Great Sock Puppetmaster of Poop. Maybe it will be me, maybe it won't, and maybe it won't happen again at all. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:1014:B003:3992:0:F:E182:B701 (talk) 04:11, 7 February 2015 (UTC)

Charismatic (horse)

Charismatic (March 13, 1996 – February 19, 2017) was an American Thoroughbred racehorse best known for winning the first two legs of the Triple Crown of Thoroughbred Racing in 1999.

Early in his career, Charismatic was entered in claiming races but he improved rapidly during his three-year-old year. After winning the 1999 Kentucky Derby and Preakness Stakes, Charismatic had the lead in the stretch of the Belmont Stakes before suddenly falling back and finishing third. He was quickly pulled up by jockey Chris Antley, who dismounted and cradled the horse's fractured foreleg to prevent further injury. The aftermath of the Belmont was later named the National Thoroughbred Racing Association Moment of the Year.

Charismatic never raced again, but was still voted 1999 Horse of the Year. He successfully recovered from his injuries to become a stallion, first in the United States and then in Japan. On October 26, 2016, it was announced that Charismatic was being retired from stud to live at Old Friends Equine near Lexington, Kentucky. He died just over two months after arriving.

Background
Charismatic was a chestnut horse with four white stockings on his legs and a white stripe on his forehead. He was bred under a foal-sharing arrangement between William S. Farish and the Parrish Hill Farm of Dr. Ben and Tom Roach. His sire was Summer Squall, who had won the 1990 Preakness Stakes. Summer Squall was a half-brother to leading sire A.P. Indy as both were out of the outstanding broodmare Weekend Surprise by Secretariat. Summer Squall's sire Storm Bird, by Northern Dancer, was also the sire of Storm Cat, another leading sire. Charismatic's dam was Bali Babe, by Drone. Bali Babe, winless in two starts, was 16 when she foaled Charismatic, a fairly advanced age for a broodmare.

Charismatic was purchased as a weanling by Bob and Beverly Lewis for $200,000. He was trained by D. Wayne Lukas and ridden in the Triple Crown races by Chris Antley.

Racing career
Charismatic lost his first five starts as a two-year-old. Lukas then took a calculated risk by entering him in a maiden claiming race on November 21, 1998, with a "tag" of $62,500. Lukas later commented, "I don't think I've ever been fooled so much by a horse... I felt I wasn't pushing the right buttons. But I felt he hadn't won a race and needed some confidence." The gamble paid off when the colt went unclaimed and then won the race.

Charismatic raced once more as a two-year-old, losing in allowance company, and then started his three-year-old season the same way, finishing fifth in both an allowance race and the Santa Catalina Stakes. Lukas decided to again roll the dice, entering the colt in another claiming race on February 11, 1999. "Quite frankly I had given up on the horse," said Bob Lewis. "I wanted to get back as much of that $200,000 (purchase price) as I could. The reason he was in that race was because Wayne wanted him to see what it was like on the front end instead of the back end." Again unclaimed, Charismatic finished second but was given the win when the first-place finisher was disqualified.

Lukas then put the colt on a demanding schedule, racing him eight days later on February 19 in an allowance race, followed by a start on March 6 in the El Camino Real Derby. Charismatic finished second in both those races, but could only manage a fourth in the Santa Anita Derby on April 6. Lukas shipped the horse to Keeneland for the Lexington Stakes on April 18, the last chance for a win on the Kentucky Derby trail. Charismatic responded with a record setting performance in his first stakes victory.

Charismatic was a 31-1 longshot in the 125th Kentucky Derby on May 1, facing a field of 18 other horses. Valhol set a slow early pace tracked by Cat Thief, who took over the lead rounding the final turn. Charismatic raced in mid-pack for the first three-quarters of a mile, then started closing ground rapidly on the leaders. He passed Cat Thief in deep stretch, then withstood a late charge from Menifee to win by a head. Cat Thief, also trained by Lukas, was third. The time for $1 1/4$ miles was a slow 2:03.29 The win denied trainer Bob Baffert his third straight Derby victory. His three entries, two of which were co-favorites at 9-2 odds, failed to make the top three.

Charismatic also won the 124th Preakness Stakes on May 15 with a time of 1:55.20 for the $1 3/16$-mile distance. He was 1½ lengths ahead of Menifee, again second, with Badge finishing third. Despite the Kentucky Derby win, Charismatic was not the Preakness favorite, posting 8-1 odds. Menifee was the favorite at 5–2.

At the 131st Belmont Stakes on June 5, Charismatic was a 2-1 favorite, with Menifee second in odds at 7–2. The rivalry between Charismatic and Menifee was compared to Affirmed and Alydar in 1978. Charismatic looked like he would become the first horse in 21 years to win the Triple Crown, taking the lead at the 3/16ths pole. However, the horse abruptly slowed down and lost the lead to eventual winner Lemon Drop Kid with 1/8 mile to go, ultimately finishing third behind second-place Vision and Verse.

Sensing that something was wrong with the horse, jockey Chris Antley eased Charismatic up in the final furlong, jumped off right after the finish line and then held up the colt's left front leg. Charismatic's foreleg had fractured in multiple places involving the cannon bone and sesamoids, and Antley's actions probably saved his life by avoiding a more catastrophic injury. As it was, the horse was taken off the track in a van and underwent surgery the next day. His surgeon Stephen Selway said, "The fracture [of the cannon bone] happened first. As the horse went on, the damaged piece hit the sesamoids and caused them to fracture." The damaged area of the cannon bone extended about six inches: four screws were inserted to provide stability. There was no sign of pre-existing injury.

The footage of a tearful Antley holding Charismatic was selected by racing fans as the 1999 National Thoroughbred Racing Association Moment of the Year.

Charismatic finished his career with 5 wins, 2 places and 4 shows in 17 career starts, for total earnings of $2,038,064. He won the Eclipse Awards for 3-year-old Colt of the Year and Overall Horse of the Year for 1999.

Retirement
In 2000, Charismatic entered stud at Lane's End Farm in Kentucky. After the 2002 season, he was shipped to Japan, where he stood at the JBBA's Shizunai Stallion Station. His fee was ¥500,000 (about $5,000) for a live foal. At the time of his retirement from stud in October 2016, Charismatic had sired 371 starters from 424 foals of racing age and 263 winners who had combined earnings of more than $44.5 million. His best runner in the United States was Sun King, who won four graded stakes and earned more than $2.2 million. In Japan, his most successful offspring was Wonder Acute, a multiple group stakes winner.

On October 26, 2016, it was announced that Charismatic would be retired from stud and would reside at Old Friends Equine near Lexington, Kentucky. The costs of transporting the horse were covered by a fund set up by his former owners and additional donations from Tito's Handmade Vodka. "We are ecstatic that we are able to participate in bringing horse racing stars like Charismatic back home, where they can be revered by the public and help raise awareness for the cause," said Eric Barlund, Tito's vice president of sales. "Charismatic's star shone very brightly, though only for a few weeks in 1999," said Beverly Lewis. "We are all looking forward to visiting him when he arrives." Charismatic died on the morning of February 19, 2017 at Old Friends due to severe bleeding caused by a pelvic fracture. He was thought to have sustained the injury during the night without sounding alarm, and did not appear to have been in distress when he was found. The cause of the fracture was unknown.

Shortly after his passing, Charismatic's best son, Sun King, arrived at Old Friends to live out his retirement.

A film about Charismatic and Chris Antley was produced by Asylum Entertainment and directed by Steven Michaels, Joel Surnow, and Jonathan Kochas for ESPN's 30 for 30 series. It aired on Tuesday, October 18, 2011, at 8 p.m.

2020 French motorcycle Grand Prix

The 2020 French motorcycle Grand Prix (officially known as the SHARK Helmets Grand Prix de France) was the tenth round of the 2020 Grand Prix motorcycle racing season, the ninth round of the 2020 MotoGP World Championship and the last race of the 2020 MotoE World Cup, which represent the end of the season for the MotoE class. It was held at the Bugatti Circuit in Le Mans on 11 October 2020.

Spaniard Jordi Torres won the MotoE World Cup in the second race.

Italian Danilo Petrucci won the MotoGP with a time of 45:54.736 on his Ducati. Notably, Spaniard Joan Mir, during a practice session, lost his balance on entering a left turn and slid on his side for about 50 metres before managing to use the momentum as he entered the gravel pit to seamlessly regain his footing and fluidly transfer his momentum into a running action. Mir's smooth recovery became a popular internet meme in various incarnations.

Impact of the COVID-19 pandemic
The opening rounds of the 2020 championship were heavily affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. Several Grands Prix were cancelled or postponed after the aborted opening round in Qatar, prompting the Fédération Internationale de Motocyclisme to draft a new calendar. On 11 June, a new schedule based solely within Europe was announced. The French Grand Prix, originally scheduled for May 17 as the sixth Grand Prix of the season, was placed on October 11.

MotoGP Championship standings before the race
After his victory in the Catalan Grand Prix, Fabio Quartararo climbed to the top of the drivers' standings with 108 points, 8 points ahead of Joan Mir and 18 over Maverick Viñales. Andrea Dovizioso, previous leader of the classification, due to the accident with Johann Zarco in the Catalan race, fell to fourth place with 84 points, followed by Franco Morbidelli with 77 points.

In the team championship, Petronas Yamaha SRT with 185 points leads the Suzuki Ecstar Team Championship with 160. Monster Energy Yamaha is third with 148 points, followed by the Ducati Team and Pramac Racing with 123 and 118 points respectively.

MotoGP Entrants

 * Stefan Bradl replaced Marc Márquez from the Czech Republic round onwards while he recovered from injuries sustained in his opening round crash.
