2003–04 Heineken Cup

The 2003–04 Heineken Cup was the ninth season for which European teams competed for the Heineken Cup. Competing teams, from England, France, Ireland, Italy, Scotland and Wales, were divided into six pools of four, in which teams played home and away matches against each other. The winners of the pools, together with the two best runners-up, qualified for the knock-out stage.

This was the first competition in the series to employ the bonus point system for classifying teams. In prior competitions, teams earned two points for a win and one for a draw. Starting with the 2003–04 competition, teams earned points in the pool matches under the following scenarios:
 * Four points for a win
 * Two points for a draw
 * One bonus point for scoring four or more tries, regardless of the final score
 * One bonus point for losing by seven points or less

Hearts of Oak (album)

Hearts of Oak is the third studio album by American indie rock band Ted Leo and the Pharmacists, released on February 11, 2003 by Lookout! Records. A music video was filmed for the single "Where Have All the Rude Boys Gone?".

It was ranked 59th by the online magazine Pitchfork on the list of the 200 albums of the decade.

Critical reception
Hearts of Oak garnered universal acclaim from music critics highlighting Leo's musicianship in terms of lyrical content, instrumentation and vocal performance. At Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream critics, the album received an average score of 84, based on 17 reviews.

Tim Sendra of AllMusic found the album a great follow-up to The Tyranny of Distance, praising the controlled stew of different rock genres used throughout and Leo for having an ear for tight musicianship and vocal range, concluding that "Hearts of Oak is a powerful and emotional record that you simply must own. Between this and The Tyranny of Distance, you are looking at a legend in the making." Jason Jackowiak of Splendid also praised Leo for having a vast musical landscape throughout the album to craft tracks with quality songwriting and instrumentation reminiscent of Thin Lizzy, Elvis Costello and early-Nick Lowe, concluding that "With a dynamic vengeance and a Celtic tune in his heart, Ted Leo might not be the answer to all the music world's problems. Still, it's certainly a pleasure to wind up Hearts of Oak and watch him go-go-go." Chris Ryan of Spin praised Leo for constructing a consistently sounding band that can conjure elements of Thin Lizzy and Dexy's Midnight Runners combined and put focus on his vocal abilities, saying that "Whether or not Leo remains contextually confined to the so-called indie slums, his horizon reaches far beyond the basement." Jon Caramanica of Entertainment Weekly praised Leo's storytelling ability for being able to create political tales with a pop sensibility to them, saying that "It’s been some time since punk was a viable storytelling genre, but Jersey’s Ted Leo turns gasping, insistent vocals into narratives that are political and pop, never compromising one for the other." Matt Gonzales of PopMatters said that despite some lyrical content feeling too idiosyncratic and obscure with its references, he praised Leo for going head-first against himself and worldwide topical problems with his musically symmetrical band, saying that "Hearts of Oak is an informal message that couldn’t have come at a more fitting time. Leo furiously delineates the dilemma of being a well-educated, well-intentioned American in a time when intelligent skepticism is regarded as sedition. In so passionately revealing his fears and doubts about the world and himself, he reminds us of rock’s power to make everything alright, or as close to alright as it’s gonna get."

In 2004, Spin placed Hearts of Oak at number 14 on its list of the 40 best albums of the year 2003. Spin writer Andrew Beaujon said, "The David Mamet of indie rock, Ted Leo packs his taut punk songs with words, words, words. Words that, strictly speaking don't belong in rock, like abjure or ossify […] And despite all these words, he rocks—a skill that Mamet has never mastered. In 2009, Pitchfork ranked the album number 59 on its list of the Top 200 Albums of the 2000s. Pitchfork writer Joshua Love said that "Hearts of Oak is Ted's finest hour, packed to the gills not only with fierce, hyper-intelligent agitprop ("The Ballad of the Sin Eater" shaming Ugly Americans for all eternity), but also combustibly catchy pop-punk hooks."

Stéphane Lupasco

Stéphane Lupasco (born Ștefan Lupașcu; 11 August 1900 – 7 October 1988) was a Romanian philosopher who developed non-Aristotelian logic.

Early years
Stéphane Lupasco was born in Bucharest on 11 August 1900. His family belonged to the old Moldavian aristocracy. His father was a lawyer and politician, but it was his mother, a pianist and student of César Franck, who established the family in Paris in 1916. After high school at the Lycée Buffon, he studied philosophy, biology and physics at the Sorbonne and, briefly, law. He participated fully in the artistic and intellectual life of Paris in the 20s and 30s and defended his State Doctoral Thesis in 1935.

Academic career
In 1946, he was named research assistant at the French National Science Research Centre, a post he was obliged to leave ten years later because of the inability of the Centre to decide in which Scientific Section his work belonged! The next ten or fifteen years were those of greatest acceptance of his work by the public and other thinkers, but unfortunately not by mainstream logicians and philosophers. His Trois Matières, published in 1960 was a bestseller, and people began calling Lupasco the Descartes, the Leibniz, the Hegel of the 20th Century, a new Claude Bernard, a new Bergson, etc. He continued to publish books in the 70s and 80s, the last being L’Homme et ses Trois Éthiques in 1986, two years before his death on October 7, 1988 in Paris. An Award of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 1984 was among the few honors that came to Lupasco during his lifetime. Lupasco was one of the founding members of the International Center for Transdisciplinary Research (Centre International de Recherches et Etudes Transdisciplinaires (CIRET)), founded in Paris in 1987 by Basarab Nicolescu, Edgar Morin, René Berger, Michel Random and other key figures of the French intelligentsia. As Nicolescu has recalled, Lupasco was deeply affected by the stubborn resistance of the academic community to honest debate and discussion of his new principles and postulates, and it is with an understandable bitterness that Lupasco saw in this resistance another example of the operation of his principles.

Summary of work
Lupasco’s style as an author is not an easy one, and requires the uninterrupted attention of the reader. It is not infrequent to find sentences of almost a page in length, containing multiple nested clauses. His writing is extremely dense in terms of the ideas and meaning of each successive phrase, with only occasional illustrative examples. Lupasco makes many references to his prior publications, unfortunately, often without adequate indexation. As Nicolescu has remarked, Lupasco’s exclusion from French academic life had both advantages and disadvantages: Lupasco was freed from the constraints of teaching and publication of research papers in a rigid format, and he obviously did not find it necessary to apply the discipline of providing references to his sources. In the Psychic Universe, published when Lupasco was seventy-nine, one sees nothing about current work in psychiatry. (Lupasco unfortunately did not read English well, and hence no references to the “anti”-psychiatry of R. D. Laing and Gregory Bateson, close in spirit to his work, are to be found.) A recent study by Brenner (2008) up-dates Lupasco’s work and shows its relevance to current issues in science and philosophy, as well as logic.

Influence
Lupasco was not well served by the (few) exegetes that had looked closely at his work. Only one book, by the sociologist Marc Beigbeder, presents both a substantial description of Lupasco’s theory and development of it as a “logic of society”. A brief monograph by the philosopher Benjamin Fondane, dating from 1944 (just prior to his deportation and death) and published in 1998, discusses the limitations of Lupasco’s view of affectivity and ontology. A book by an obscure English artist, George Melhuish, uses Lupasco’s ideas to develop his own concept of the structure of the universe, a sympathetic but not very rigorous reading of his work. Aside from Nicolescu's personal library it has been claimed that access to these and several other texts are otherwise unavailable. A complete understanding of, for example, Lupasco’s analysis of those precursors that André Glucksmann has called “Les Maîtres Penseurs” – Kant, Hegel, Schopenhauer and Marx – must be sought in several different books. The attention of the reader is rewarded, however, by Lupasco’s regular restatements of his basic theses, often in a way that is more economic, meaningful and coherent.

In his introduction to Lupasco’s The Principle of Antagonism and the Logic of Energy, Nicolescu points out that once the reader gets beyond the (relatively few) mathematical formulas in this book, Lupasco’s language is perfectly accessible. “It exemplifies, in a self-referential manner, the ternary aspects of actualization, potentialization and included middle which give it the charm and the privilege of incantations that are at the same time scientific, philosophical and poetic.”

Summarizing briefly, stimulated by Albert Einstein's works and quantum theory, Lupasco founded a new logic, questioning the tertium non datur principle of classical logic. He introduced a third state, going beyond the duality principle, the T-state. The T-state is neither 'actual', nor 'potential' (categories replacing in Lupasco's system the 'true' or 'false' values of standard bivalent logic), but a resolution of the two contradictory elements at a higher level of reality or complexity. Lupasco generalised his logic to physics and epistemology and above all to a new theory of consciousness.

Recent studies
A key reference in French is the compendium of 1999, "Stéphane Lupasco -The Man and the Work" by H. Badescu and B. Nicolescu. The first comprehensive update and comparison of Lupasco's thought in English is the 2008 book by J. E. Brenner, "Logic in Reality". Other useful new references are the combined papers of a Symposium on Lupasco in 2009 "At the Confluence of Two Cultures: Lupasco Today," in French and a biographical paper by Brenner, "The Philosophical Logic of Stéphane Lupasco (1900 - 1988)" in English.

Metoclopramide

Metoclopramide is a medication used for stomach and esophageal problems. It is commonly used to treat and prevent nausea and vomiting, to help with emptying of the stomach in people with delayed stomach emptying, and to help with gastroesophageal reflux disease. It is also used to treat migraine headaches.

Common side effects include: feeling tired, diarrhea, akathisia, and tardive dyskinesia. More serious side effects include neuroleptic malignant syndrome and depression. It is thus rarely recommended that people take the medication for longer than twelve weeks. No evidence of harm has been found after being taken by many pregnant women. It belongs to the group of medications known as dopamine-receptor antagonists and works as a prokinetic.

In 2012, metoclopramide was one of the top 100 most prescribed medications in the United States. It is available as a generic medication. It is on the World Health Organization's List of Essential Medicines. In 2020, it was the 352nd most commonly prescribed medication in the United States, with more than 600,000 prescriptions.

Nausea
Metoclopramide is commonly used to treat nausea and vomiting associated with conditions such as uremia, radiation sickness, cancer and the effects of chemotherapy, labor, infection, and emetogenic drugs. As a perioperative anti-emetic, the effective dose is usually 25 to 50 mg (compared to the usual 10 mg dose).

It is also used in pregnancy as a second choice for treatment of hyperemesis gravidarum (severe nausea and vomiting of pregnancy).

It is also used preventatively by some EMS providers when transporting people who are conscious and spinally immobilized.

Migraine
In migraine headaches, metoclopramide may be used in combination with paracetamol (acetaminophen) or in combination with aspirin.

Gastroparesis
Evidence also supports its use for gastroparesis, a condition that causes the stomach to empty poorly, and as of 2010 it was the only drug approved by the FDA for that condition.

It is also used in gastroesophageal reflux disease.

Lactation
While metoclopramide is used to try to increase breast milk production, evidence for its effectiveness for this is poor. Its safety for this use is also unclear.

Procedures
Intravenous metoclopramide is used in small-bowel follow-through, small-bowel enema, and radionuclide gastric-emptying studies to reduce the time taken for barium to go through the intestines, thus reducing the total time needed for the procedures. Metoclopramide also prevents vomiting after oral ingestion of barium.

Contraindications
Metoclopramide is contraindicated in pheochromocytoma. It should be used with caution in Parkinson's disease since, as a dopamine antagonist, it may worsen symptoms. Long-term use should be avoided in people with clinical depression, as it may worsen one's mental state. It is contraindicated for people with a suspected bowel obstruction, in epilepsy, if a stomach operation has been performed in the previous three or four days, perforation or blockage of the stomach, and in newborn babies.

The safety of the drug was reviewed by the European Medicines Agency in 2011, which determined that it should not be prescribed in high doses, for periods of more than five days, or given to children below 1 year of age. They suggested its use in older children should be restricted to treating post-chemotherapy or post-surgery nausea and vomiting, and even then only for patients where other treatments have failed. For adults, they recommended its use be restricted to treating migraines and post-chemotherapy or post-surgery patients.

Pregnancy
Metoclopramide has long been used in all stages of pregnancy with no evidence of harm to the mother or foetus. A large cohort study of babies born to Israeli women exposed to metoclopramide during pregnancy found no evidence that the drug increases the risk of congenital malformations, low birth weight, preterm birth, or perinatal mortality. A large cohort study in Denmark found, in addition, no association between metoclopramide exposure and miscarriage. Metoclopramide is excreted into milk.

Infants
A systematic review found a wide range of reported outcomes for treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) in infants and concluded a "poor" rating of evidence and "inconclusive" rating of safety and efficacy for the treatment of GERD in infants.

Side effects

Common adverse drug reactions (ADRs) associated with metoclopramide therapy include restlessness (akathisia), and focal dystonia. Infrequent ADRs include hypertension, hypotension, hyperprolactinaemia leading to galactorrhea, headache, and extrapyramidal effects such as oculogyric crisis.

Metoclopramide may be the most common cause of drug-induced movement disorders. The risk of extrapyramidal effects is increased in people under 20 years of age, and with high-dose or prolonged therapy. Tardive dyskinesia may be persistent and irreversible in some people. The majority of reports of tardive dyskinesia occur in people who have used metoclopramide for more than three months. Consequently, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recommends that metoclopramide be used for short-term treatment, preferably less than 12 weeks. In 2009, the FDA required all manufacturers of metoclopramide to issue a black box warning regarding the risk of tardive dyskinesia with chronic or high-dose use of the drug.

Dystonic reactions may be treated with benzatropine, diphenhydramine, trihexyphenidyl, or procyclidine. Symptoms usually subside with diphenhydramine injected intramuscularly. Agents in the benzodiazepine class of drugs may be helpful, but benefits are usually modest and side effects of sedation and weakness can be problematic.

In some cases, the akathisia effects of metoclopramide are directly related to the infusion rate when the drug is administered intravenously. Side effects were usually seen in the first 15 min after the dose of metoclopramide.

Withdrawal effects were reported for a female taking metoclopramide for about six months. The adverse symptoms oscillated between akinesian and akathisian, including amenorrhea, and appeared like secondary parkinsonism. Adverse effects remained a year after the metoclopramide had been gradually withdrawn.

Rare side effects
Diabetes, age, and female gender are risk factors that increase the likelihood of experiencing a neuropsychiatric side effect of metoclopramide.
 * Panic disorder
 * Major depressive disorder
 * Agoraphobia
 * Agranulocytosis, supraventricular tachycardia, hyperaldosteronism, neuroleptic malignant syndrome, akathisia and tardive dyskinesia.
 * Methaemoglobinaemia*

Pharmacology
Metoclopramide appears to bind to dopamine D2 receptors with nanomolar affinity (Ki = 28.8 nM), where it is a receptor antagonist, and is also a mixed 5-HT3 receptor antagonist/5-HT4 receptor agonist.

Mechanism of action
The antiemetic action of metoclopramide is due to its antagonist activity at D2 receptors in the chemoreceptor trigger zone in the central nervous system — this action prevents nausea and vomiting triggered by most stimuli. At higher doses, 5-HT3 antagonist activity may also contribute to the antiemetic effect.

The gastroprokinetic activity of metoclopramide is mediated by muscarinic activity, D2 receptor antagonist activity, and 5-HT4 receptor agonist activity. The gastroprokinetic effect itself may also contribute to the antiemetic effect. Metoclopramide also increases the tone of the lower esophageal sphincter.

Metoclopramide might influence mood because of its antagonistic blockade on 5-HT3 and agonistic (activating) action on 5-HT4.

Pharmacokinetics
Metoclopramide is metabolized by CYP2D6 and is a reversible inhibitor, but not inactivator, of CYP2D6. The major metabolites of metoclopramide are N-hydroxylation and N-deethylation by all common CYP enzymes.

Chemistry
Metoclopramide is a substituted benzamide; cisapride and mosapride are structurally related.

History
Metoclopramide was first described by Louis Justin-Besançon and Charles Laville in 1964, while working to improve the anti-dysrhythmic properties of procainamide. That research project also produced the product sulpiride. The first clinical trials were published by Tourneu et al. in 1964 and by Boisson and Albot in 1966. Justin-Besançon and Laville worked for Laboratoires Delagrange and that company introduced the drug as Primperan in 1964. Laboratoires Delagrange was acquired by Synthelabo in 1991 which eventually became part of Sanofi.

A.H. Robins introduced the drug in the US under the brand name Reglan in 1979 as an injectable and an oral form was approved in 1980. in 1989 A.H. Robins was acquired by American Home Products, which changed its name to Wyeth in 2002.

The drugs were initially used to control nausea for people with severe headaches or migraines, and later uses for nausea caused by radiation therapy and chemotherapy, and later yet for treating nausea caused by anesthesia. In the US the injectable form was labelled for chemotherapy-induced nausea and the oral form was eventually labelled for gastroesophageal reflux disease.

It became widely used in the 1980s, becoming the most commonly used drug to treat anesthesia-induced nausea and for treating gastritis in emergency rooms.

The first generics were introduced in 1985.

In the early 1980s signs began to emerge in pharmacovigilance studies from Sweden that the drug was causing tardive dyskinesia in some patients. The FDA required a warning about tardive dyskinesia to be added to the drug label in 1985 stating that: "tardive dyskinesia . . . may develop in patients treated with metoclopramide,” and warned against use longer than 12 weeks, as that was how long the drug has been tested. In 2009 the FDA required that a black box warning be added to the label.

The emergence of this severe side effect led to a wave of product liability litigation against generic manufacturers as well as Wyeth. The litigation was complicated since there was a lack of clarity in jurisdiction between state laws, where product liability is determined, and federal law, which determines how drugs are labelled, as well as between generics companies, which had no control over labelling, and the originator company, which did. The litigation yielded at least two important cases. In Conte v. Wyeth in the California state courts, the claims of the plaintiff against the generic companies Pliva, Teva, and Purepac that had sold the drugs that the plaintiff actually took, and the claims against Wyeth, whose product the plaintiff never took, were all dismissed by the trial court, but the case was appealed, and in 2008 the appellate court upheld the dismissal of the cases against the generic companies, but reversed on Wyeth, allowing the case against Wyeth to proceed. This established an "innovator liability" or "pioneer liability" for pharmaceutical companies. The precedent was not widely followed in California nor in other states. Litigation over the same issues related to metoclopramide also reached the US Supreme Court in Pliva, Inc. v. Mensing, in which the court held in 2011 that generic companies cannot be held liable for information, or the lack of information, on the originator's label. As of August 2015 there were about 5000 suits pending across the US and efforts to consolidate them into a class action had failed.

Shortly following the Pliva decision, the FDA proposed a rule change that would allow generics manufacturers to update the label if the originating drug had been withdrawn from the market for reasons other than safety. As of May 2016 the rule, which turned out to be controversial since it would open generic companies to product liability suits, was still not finalized, and the FDA had stated the final rule would be issued in April 2017. The FDA issued a draft guidance for generic companies to update labels in July 2016.

Veterinary use
Metoclopramide is commonly used to prevent vomiting in cats and dogs. It is also used as a gut stimulant in rabbits.

Pete Yorn

Peter Joseph Yorn (born July 27, 1974) is an American singer, songwriter, and musician. He first gained international recognition after his debut record, Musicforthemorningafter, was released to critical and commercial acclaim in 2001. He is known for playing the bulk of the instruments on his records. Spin magazine, in a career retrospective article dated March 26, 2021, recognized Yorn as one of his generation's best songwriters. Yorn’s 10th full length album, Hawaii, was released on June 17, 2022. His latest single, “Real Good Love”, was released on June 28, 2024.

Early life
Yorn was born in Pompton Plains, New Jersey, and raised Jewish in Montville, New Jersey, the son of Joan, a former school teacher and real estate agent, and Lawrence K. Yorn, a retired dentist and former Captain in the United States Army. Yorn attended Montville Township High School. Yorn graduated from Syracuse University in 1996. His brother Rick is a major talent manager in Hollywood and was responsible for teaching nine-year-old Pete to play the drums. His eldest brother Kevin Yorn is an entertainment lawyer.

Yorn mentions the Nova Scotia-based band Sloan as one with great influence on him, even admitting after seeing them live in 1999, he was so blown away by their talent that he wondered whether it would be worth continuing to even pursue his debut album. Sloan would later tour with Yorn in the US in 2002.

Yorn composed the score for Me, Myself & Irene in 2000. His songs "Strange Condition" and "Just Another" appeared in the film.

musicforthemorningafter
Yorn released his debut LP, entitled musicforthemorningafter, on March 27, 2001. It went gold on the strength of the album's lead single, "Life on a Chain." Rolling Stone Magazine named Yorn one of "Ten Bands to Watch in 2001" and gave the album a favorable four-star rating. Yorn and his band Dirty Bird toured for 18 months straight in support of his debut record.

Yorn went on to release the 2003 album Day I Forgot which had sold over 275,000 copies in the United States as of 2005 and scored a third radio hit with the song "Come Back Home." Q Magazine, in its 4 star review, described the record as simply "wonderful". The record also featured "Crystal Village", and "Turn of The Century". The latter was featured in the 2004 film The Girl Next Door. On the heels of the extensive 'Day I Forgot' tour, Yorn released a double live album, "LIVE From New Jersey", which was recorded at the Community Theater in Morristown, New Jersey.

In 2006, Yorn released his third album, Nightcrawler and toured extensively in support of it. He preceded every show with an instore acoustic appearance at an indie record shop in the town he was passing through. All of these instore performances were recorded, thus creating an extensive series of Live EP's. (complete list of instore EP's below). Nightcrawler was named one of the top 20 records of 2006 by Paste magazine.

The Trilogy
Pete Yorn's third studio release, Nightcrawler, completes a conceptual trilogy of sorts, which spans his first three albums (EPs not included); beginning in the morning with the musicforthemorningafter LP, continuing through the day with the Day I Forgot LP, and arriving at nightfall with the Nightcrawler LP.

In September 2006, in an interview with silentuproar.com, Yorn elaborated on his true intentions behind the trilogy, remarking that it was at least partially a conscious trilogy but wasn't meant to be taken too seriously: "I didn't mean like a Star Wars trilogy where it's one story at all." Yorn expressed that the "trilogy" was more of a diary of sorts; a person gaining new life experiences and simply commenting on them in linear order. "So it's a sort of continuing analysis of those topics, and the Nightcrawler LP would represent a later phase," Yorn said.

Subsequent releases
In 2008, Pete Yorn recorded with Frank Black and released a new song, entitled "American Blues Vol. 1." A music video was shot for the single, and the song itself was released for free on Yorn's official website for a short period of time. Concerning the song, Yorn has said "I wrote American Blues Vol. 1. on the 4th of July after reading the morning paper. It's unlike any song I've ever written. I was moved by how much negativity I was reading about and how even groups were boycotting Independence Day because they were so disgusted with the state of our Nation. I was hoping things would improve...they obviously haven't yet...but I know they will in time."

Yorn appears on Canadian artist Matthew Good's 2009 album Vancouver performing backing vocals.

"Can't Hear Anyone," a song that Yorn wrote during the Nightcrawler sessions, was used for a Mercedes-Benz commercial and was released as a digital single on March 31, 2009.

Columbia Records released his Mike Mogis-produced album, entitled Back and Fourth on June 23, 2009.

Yorn toured with Coldplay as an opening act through summer 2009 and collaborated with actress/musician Scarlett Johansson to record a project entitled Break Up. The album was released on September 15, 2009, and its first single—"Relator"—was released digitally on May 26, 2009. The record has since gone platinum in France.

Yorn released a self-titled album on September 28, 2010. This record was released by Vagrant Records, and produced by Frank Black of The Pixies. It received a favorable 8/10 stars in Spin magazine and 4/5 stars in Mojo. He toured North America and Europe in support of this record February 14 − June 12, 2011.

In November 2012, Santa Monica-based radio station KCRW began spinning songs from a new record by a band called The Olms. DJ Jason Bentley has reported that Yorn is indeed a founding member of this group. On January 8, 2013, NPR's flagship station KCRW released a track by The Olms titled, "Wanna Feel It." The Olms' self-titled debut album was released on June 4, 2013 by the newly relaunched Harvest Records. On September 15, 2013, Yorn and The Olms performed along with Vampire Weekend at the iTunes Festival in London. An EP was released of the performance in conjunction with a documentary centered around their first tour which premiered on November 12, 2013. Allmusic.com in its 4 star review of The Olms had this to say: "...an excellent album by two guys who have discovered the transformative power that can be derived from collaboration".

On November 6, 2015 in a statement to fans, Yorn announced that he had signed to Capitol Records and would be releasing his sixth studio album, ArrangingTime in early 2016.

In 2018, Yorn once again collaborated with Johansson on a new EP, Apart, their first such project since working together on 2009's Break Up. In an interview with Forbes, Yorn remarked on how much the album, contrasted with the previous collaboration, provides perspective on how his life changed in the past decade, while Johansson teased a third album presumably to be released in the late 2020s.

On August 9, 2019 Yorn released his seventh solo full-length album Caretakers via his new label Shelly Music. It was produced by Pete Yorn and Jackson Phillips of Day Wave. Stephen Thomas Erlewine gave Caretakers four stars in his All Music Guide review, calling it "...an appealing blend that sets it apart from most other albums in 2019". The first single from Caretakers, "Calm Down", reached #2 on the Mediabase AAA radio chart, almost 19 years after his debut single "Life on a Chain" went all the way to #1 and stayed there for 6 weeks back in 2001.

Pete Yorn Live at the Troubadour
Pete Yorn Live at the Troubadour was released digitally and on CD via Bandcamp on May 14, 2020.

Pete Yorn: Live at the Fonda
Released on August 29, 2020 Pete Yorn: Live at the Fonda is a digital and CD double live release on Bandcamp. The package comes with a concert film shot by director and longtime collaborator Jim Wright (at the same show as the album on August 28, 2009). Covers during the set include Bruce Springsteen's "Hungry Heart" and New Order's "Bizarre Love Triangle".

Pete Yorn Sings the Classics
On January 15, 2021, Shelly Records released Pete Yorn Sings the Classics, a full-length record of cover songs. It starts with his version of the Pixies "Here Comes Your Man" and ends with the classic "Moon River" (originally recorded in 1961). Liz Phair, Rami Jaffee (Foo Fighters, Wallflowers) and Tim Walker (Minibar) are some of the guest musicians on the 10 song studio album. Yorn made the record with longtime friend and fellow musician/producer Marc "Doc" Dauer. The record was initially released on CD and digital formats through Pete's Bandcamp store. Vinyl release is expected for Record Store Day in the spring of 2021. Writer Jim Beviglia at American Songwriter called it an "outstanding new covers album" and added "The affection and care that Yorn holds for the chosen material show up early and often in Pete Yorn Sings the Classics." On January 19, 2021 Pete performed the song "They Don't Know" which was written by Kirsty MacColl on The Ellen DeGeneres Show.

Yorn followed this with Hawaii in 2022.

Collaborations
Guitarist Peter Buck of the band R.E.M. has made appearances on several Pete Yorn recordings, including instrumentation on the single version of "Strange Condition" and a number of songs from the Day I Forgot LP. Yorn has worked with producers R. Walt Vincent, Brad Wood, and Ken Andrews of Failure and Year of the Rabbit, in addition to several other producers including Scott Litt, Butch Walker and Sonic Youth producer Don Fleming.

Yorn has shared bills with the Dave Matthews Band, R.E.M., Crowded House, Foo Fighters, Weezer, Coldplay, The Dixie Chicks, Semisonic, and Sunny Day Real Estate, among others.

Yorn has played at Carnegie Hall on two occasions as part of tributes to Neil Young and Bruce Springsteen. Yorn gave the 2011 commencement address to the Visual and Performing Arts class at his alma mater, Syracuse University.

Yorn can be heard on Guided by Voices' 2007 Live From Austin Texas album, singing back up and sporadic leads on "Cut Out Witch." Robert Pollard says after the song that he hopes it "doesn't ruin [Yorn's] career."

Yorn's song, "Lose You" can be heard just before the ending credits of the episode "Simple Explanation" during Kutner's funeral on the Fox show House.

Yorn has collaborated twice with actress/singer Scarlett Johansson: first in 2009's Break Up and again with 2018's Apart. The pair have suggested a third album can be expected after another 10 years.

Talk:Diadumenian

Untitled
My printed sources seem to prefer "Diadumenianus", while "Diadumenian" is apparently what coin collectors use, and so it has many more Google hits. Leaving it at the latter for now. Stan 14:56, 30 Nov 2003 (UTC)

Actually I agree with your thoughts. Most of my texts refer to him as "Diadumenianus" when he was co-emperor. Before that he is refered to as "Diadumenian." Many texts do not list him as a Caesar. It seems like only the more exhaustive texts do. I will get a definitive answer from an Ancient History professor. Since his proper name is "Diadumenianus" I think it shouldbe changed. Argonaut 18:59, 30 Nov 2003 (UTC)

 * Our rule is to use the "most common" name that is still correct, thus Livy and Bill Clinton, with redirs from Titus Livius and William Jefferson Clinton. For someone this obscure, it's tougher to tell what is "most common"; ironically, the coin collectors seem more aware of his existence than the history professors. :-) Stan 19:43, 30 Nov 2003 (UTC)

Use of the name "Diadumenian" instead of "Diadumenianus" is equivalent to English use of the names Constantine, Trajan, and Hadrian instead of the latin equivalents. Most English speakers would probably be searching on "Diadumenian", so I would leave it as is. It is probably a good idea to exercise caution in paraphrasing the Historia Augusta ("Diadumenian emulated Macrinus in tyranny. He called upon his father not to spare any who might oppose them or who made plots"). The HA is known to be very unreliable. This is particularly true for the time period of Diadumenian. Victor at least agrees with archaeological finds in Diadumenian's full name and titles (Marcus Opellius Antoninus Diadumenianus Caesar Augustus). Bill Storage 10:14, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

Webert Sicot

Webert Sicot (1930 – February 1985) was a Haitian saxophone player, composer and band leader. He is recognized as one of the creators of compas also known as compas direct, a style of Haitian music born in the 1950s that he named cadence rampa after he left Nemours' band to differentiate himself in 1962 in the spirit of competition.

Career
Sicot was born in Port-au-Prince, Haiti, in 1930. He took his first musical lessons from Augustin Bruno. He made his debut as professional with Claudin Toussaint's Jazz Capois. He also worked with the groups Jazz des Jeunes and the Saieh Orchestra, in the second half or the 1950s.

He founded with Nemours Jean-Baptiste the Conjunto Internacional and took part in the Citadelle orchestra and Casino Internacional Band. With Jean-Baptiste, he created the compas direct, a variation of the Haitian méringue. In 1961 he commenced a solo career and became one of the pioneers of cadence rampa. He played several instruments as trumpet, bass, piano and drums. Because of his frequent Caribbean tours with his brother Raymond in the Caribbean, cadence became very popular in Dominica and the French Antilles of Guadeloupe and Martinique.

Sicot died in February 1985 and is considered as one of the most influentials band leaders in Haitian popular music.

Talk:Internet art

Wiki Education Foundation-supported course assignment
This article was the subject of a Wiki Education Foundation-supported course assignment, between 24 August 2020 and 14 December 2020. Further details are available on the course page. Student editor(s): Sgibbs44.

Above undated message substituted from Template:Dashboard.wikiedu.org assignment by PrimeBOT (talk) 00:40, 17 January 2022 (UTC)

Unsorted text
Although all the terms around internet art and net art don't translate 1:1 between German and English, it may be of interest for german reading net art and internet art freaks or writers, how the german Wikipedia makes a difference between "Netzkunst" (broader meaning than Internet Art) and "Kunst mit Netzwerken" (≠ Art with Networks). Describing the first as being rooted in the more technical context of early electronic networking and the latter as being rooted in the more sociological approach, as it was basic for Ray Johnson or Robert Filliou.--Fluss 05:13, 22 November 2005 (UTC)

external links section
A lot of the links are to online galleries and collections of traditional art (including computer art). These are only internet art in the sense that the internet is used to transmit the art. But internet art per the article is art where the internet is the art medium in its own right, and not merely a distribution channel. Etoy was given as an example. By analogy, "TV art" might refer to art using TV as a medium; an example might be a giant sculpture made out of TV sets. It would not include normal movies that were merely shown on TV. So I think the external links for this article should be cleaned up, with the traditional-art links moved to some other suitable article. Thoughts? Phr 07:29, 16 April 2006 (UTC)

I agree Wholeheartedly - Lewiscode

Personally I found the long list of links extremely useful, and a great deal more useful than having no links at all, as it is currently - 10 May 2006

 * Perhaps you are looking for DMOZ and not Wikipedia? :-) Haakon 17:30, 10 May 2006 (UTC)

Perhaps - but can't this resource perform more than one function, and save a lot of people a few additional clicks? - 17 May 2006

You are right in one point, but what if some artists might use internet in order to transmit their art? - Dania

No, Wikipedia can not perform the function of a link directory. This is quite established. Haakon 15:20, 17 May 2006 (UTC)

Haakon, you are not the end-all-editor here! This freekin section is about internet art for gadz sake and people that come here may want to read about it and then go look somewhere else! You are so freeking lame sometimes! Just let the links be here like they were before! What in the freek does it matter to you anyhow! I'll tell you what it matters! My internet art site was listed and you nuked the whole freekin section because I was listed! That's your agenda! 0waldo 00:25, 18 May 2006 (UTC)

My only agenda is to better the quality of Wikipedia articles. In my opinion, the huge link collection detracts from the value of this article, and conflicts with What Wikipedia is not (see section "Wikipedia is not a mirror or a repository of links, images, or media files"). But it seems this opinion is not the general consensus, so I will let go and I have reinstated the link collection. Haakon 12:56, 18 May 2006 (UTC)

Haakon: What? you are letting it stay here? why? I thought that It was crap? Usually, you just do whatever you want - I'm totally stupid but we all know that but I'm still bumfuzed over this ... 0waldo 00:55, 19 May 2006 (UTC)

 * Why have the links being restored? This is an open invitation to SPAM! Asterion talk to me 14:53, 21 May 2006 (UTC)

 * I removed the links, but there seemed to be much resistance over it, so I reinstated them. I agree completely that it is a huge bunch of spam, so if you want to be the one taking flak for removing them, please do and I will certainly defend it. Haakon 15:02, 21 May 2006 (UTC)

 * I think a Request for Comments needs to be filed. We cannot simply change Wikipedia policies like that. Asterion talk to me 15:19, 21 May 2006 (UTC)

Request for comments
To resolve the disagreement over whether the (in my opinion) rather large link collection should stay or go, I requested comments. Some people have said that they found the links useful, while my stated opinion is "the huge link collection detracts from the value of this article, and conflicts with What Wikipedia is not". See the discussion in the section above. Discuss. Haakon 10:02, 24 May 2006 (UTC)

 * The links on this page conflicts with link style used on nearly every other article - there is also a clear consensus that Wikipedia should not be a collection of links. 70% of this article are links which is entirely too much. My suggestion: Remove all links and point to a relevant repository of links in a External links section, per usage on other pages. H e nrik 12:28, 24 May 2006 (UTC)
 * I agree. All links should be removed and an alternative link to the DMOZ directory or similar provided. Also, considering that many of these links could be considered as "vanity", things are even clearer. Asterion talk to me 12:51, 24 May 2006 (UTC)
 * I agree, WP is not a link collector, no links unless they are notable in some way that isn't covered in WP Sunhawk 16:00, 22 June 2006 (UTC)

I agree with general points so far. I would say there is, as with every article, the case for selective helpful links, if (note - if) there is consensus over these between involved editors. The big list of links at the moment is no doubt useful for some people, but not very helpful for people who want to read an encyclopedia article about internet art, and it is quite clearly established in Wiki that the latter is the point of this project.

I also note that some of the talk involves unnecessary personal comment (see WP:NPA) rather than addressing the issues. I commend Haakon's refusal to create an edit war, despite disagreeing with what he saw as the current consensus, and also Asterion's action in calling in external editors to get a wider opinion. The aim is to create a good informative article on this topic, and I hope that it will proceed with goodwill with that in mind. The external link stops the Dreamies wikilink. With red links - well either they're not important enough for an article (in which case best not to wikilink) or an article will get written.

Tyrenius 17:12, 24 May 2006 (UTC)

 * As no new comments had been posted for a while and all those who had said something seemed to be in favor of removing the collection I have now been bold and done so. H e nrik 16:21, 27 May 2006 (UTC)

 * Oh, another thing: I agree with the point above that a selection of links may be helpful, but I feel it to be best to start with a clean slate at this time. Useful links can always be readded. H e nrik 16:24, 27 May 2006 (UTC)

The article looks much better — like an article in fact. However, I note that there are external links embedded in the text, which is not recommended. They should be stripped out and wikilinked instead. Examples are Dreamies, Bill Holt and IRCAM. Two of these have articles already. For the ones that don't, then a link in external links makes sense. Tyrenius 17:05, 27 May 2006 (UTC)

 * Would it be possible to have a link on that page that'd link to another page that'd be a collection of links ? I mean it's current practice in some sections of wiki to have lists of elements such as famous norwegian writers (replace norwegian and/or writers by whatever term you like)....and it works just fine although it is still a collection of links ? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Eurekastreet (talk • contribs)

After the clean slate, people have now been adding "useful" links for three years, and the link directory was growing out of control again. I cleaned the slate again. Haakon (talk) 19:07, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

Improvements
I'm going to attempt to make some improvements to this article in the next little while, if anyone cares. For one, there are some simple references that can be added and sourced to inline citations - specifically, the article from Artforum in 2000 by Rachel Greene is an important early article that it seems some of the content is being summarized (poorly) from. Also, I was curious about the Dietz quote - and it has been widely reproduced because of this Wikipedia article. I found the original source, and it's not *quite* right on. It's here: and he uses that quote in reference to the specific online exhibition and artists he's curated, not necessarily referring to net.art in general. Also, at the Dietz source, I found some of the other content - and again, very poorly summarized or barely-paraphrased. Heads up! Deadchildstar (talk) 01:04, 8 August 2009 (UTC)

I'm working on an addition to the History and Context section that aims to address the role of social networking platforms in the creation and distribution of internet art- the historical context of the surf club in relation to social networking platforms is especially important and is only really adressed as a "see also" link. - SIGnificationNETwork —Preceding undated comment added 23:17, 22 November 2012 (UTC)

New Yorker article
There's a good piece about net art in the latest New Yorker (February 10, 2014 issue): "Man and Machine" by Susan Orlean.-- Brainy J  ~ ✿ ~ ( talk ) 15:28, 7 February 2014 (UTC)

Talk:Seventh Day Adventist Reform Movement

[Untitled]
The original material which led to this article was " Submitted by Vasily Yunack www.biblestudy.ru - NOT affiliated with the SDA RM ... Just passing by..."

Errors
I have attended a Reform church for about 15 years and this paragraph is untrue: "Both these splinter groups have doctrines which include women being prohibited from cutting their hair, wearing trousers and wearing short sleeves. Other doctrines include prohibitions on eating chocolate, cheese and in the Seventh Day Adventist Reform Movement is was even considered whether to make eating beans and rice together at the same meal against church doctrine, and therefore an offence punishable by disfellowshipment."

Members (I'm sure there might always be exceptions) do cut their hair, wear trousers and wear short sleeves. Not eating chocolate or cheese is NOT a DOCTRINE (and many do), and I have never HEARD of any "beans and rice" discussion, and it is certainly not a matter for disfellowshipment. I can't imagine who wrote this. Heisable (talk) 03:28, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

I have also been a member of this church for a number of years and I have to say that the hair cutting is not a doctrine of the church, however you may meet members that will try to tell you that it something they believe in, but it is not a teaching of the church. It is also untrue that eating beans and rice together is a teaching. Health guidelines are given and recommendations made, but the only one that I know of that is directly prohibited is the eating of meat. As for the short sleeves this is also not a church doctrine. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.53.69.212 (talk) 13:41, 28 November 2010 (UTC)

1951 split?
Can anyone improve the section about the 1951 split? There's very little information given, and the sentence "The cause of this split was personal pride, and a lust for power." is not NPOV. Tony Zbaraschuk 01:04, 24 July 2008 (UTC)

There were a number of issues at stake concerning the split - these need to be stated from a NPOV. Time permitting, I will try to improve the section. --Engellion (talk) 10:43, 4 January 2011 (UTC)

OK. I've spent quite a bit of time trying improve the section about the 1951 split. Have tried to make it NPOV and provided references where possible for historical statements. I recognise that a lot of work needs to be done to the page "International Missionary Society" in order to make that one NPOV and more coherant with my update here on the 1951 split. Any help on that page is welcome.Engellion (talk) 07:00, 3 April 2011 (UTC)

Rewriting and updating
I have written up a document on the history on the Seventh Day Adventist Reform Movement, if no one minds I would like to rewrite the Seventh Day Adventist Reform Movement.....Simbagraphix (talk) 17:29, 14 September 2010 (UTC)

I've rewritten both the Introduction, and the entire Sub-Section undr History on the 1951 Split. I am not happy entirely with the first sub-section under History outlining the split with the SDA Church in WW1. Unless you already have something we can look at, I plan to ammend this sub-section dealing with the WW1 SDA Church split.Engellion (talk) 12:03, 3 April 2011 (UTC)

It was in very poor shape when I came across it, so any help is appreciated. Simbagraphix (talk) 10:15, 11 April 2011 (UTC)

Happy to help. Please check out my User Page here for progress on the History of the Split with the SDA Church in WWI. It is a work in progress but any comments appreciated.Engellion (talk) 08:18, 27 April 2011 (UTC)

Reconcialiation Efforts
2005 Apology Regarding this sentence: "In 2005, the mainstream Seventh-day Adventist church tried to make amends and apologized for its failures during World War II, as the issue from the actions of L. R. Conradi continued during that war."

The referenced article "Church Leaders say "We're Sorry'" addresses the anti-semitic and pro-Nazi attitudes and actions of the German and Austrian SDA Church during World War II. There is no record of an apology by the SDA Church over its failures during World War I regarding the issues in question that led to the formation of the SDARM. If there are no objections I will delete the sentence. Engellion (talk) 23:54, 24 December 2010 (UTC)

I have the history of the actions by L. R. Conradi and will try to get better references. As even after retracting his mistakes and apologizing for them to the members in the 1920 meetings, he was allowed to continue as a leader and groom new leaders and it again had a negative affect as can be seen in the pro-Nazi attitudes and actions of German and Austrian SDA Church during World War II. Thus the apology was again trying to show it was not the policy of the main SDA church but of individual leaders who led it into error.

I must say, you have done some excellent work in the sections. Simbagraphix (talk) 10:11, 11 April 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for the encouragement. I understand where you are coming from, but I am still not sure that that the apology was intended as some kind of overture to the SDARM. Yes, the nationalistic attitudes of Conradi and other leaders may have been at the heart of the split. But the action to 'bear arms' is still a 'hot potato' in SDA circles today. No action is taken against those who do bear arms in the SDA Church. From my understanding, that is at the heart of the reasons for a continuing division today between the SDARM and SDA Church. If the reference to the 2005 apology is to remain, then at some point, I think it would be well to highlight that the failure of the SDA leadership to take action against those who did bear arms (and those SDA church members whoe still bear arms today) is a bone of contention with the SDARM. Engellion (talk) 08:33, 27 April 2011 (UTC)

That is not entirely correct, the issue was more comprehensive. Conradi and other leaders had not accepted Ellen White and her counsels in many areas and this many of the members of the SDARM felt was a serious issue, along with breaking the Sabbath even if in defense of the motherland, and what they felt was the setting aside of many of the other foundational beliefs of the Adventist movement. The SDARM was correct in the danger it was leading to as Conradi cause irreparible damage that is being felt to this day..Simbagraphix (talk) 12:32, 15 May 2011 (UTC)

Neutrality of this article is disputed
I dont see any outstanding issues, I think the neutrality of this article is no longer disputed. But will leave the tag till there has been time for full discussion on the issue.Simbagraphix (talk) 23:53, 19 June 2011 (UTC)
 * The discussion is dormant. I will remove the tag. William Avery (talk) 11:28, 30 January 2012 (UTC)

POV tag
"formed as the result of a schism within the Seventh-day Adventist Church in Europe during World War I over the position its leadership incorrectly took on proper Sabbath observance and in committing Seventh-day Adventist Church members to the bearing of arms in military service"

We ought to find a reliable source for the statement that includes the word "incorrectly" (I am aware this word is again used in the article's body), or else remove the word from the statement. The word isn't really needed to convey the intended meaning anyway.

We also need to rethink the use of the word "proper" in the same quotes. Again, why is this word needed there?

My name is Mercy11 (talk) 15:07, 9 May 2012 (UTC), and I approve this message.

I removed POV tag as the non-NPOV words raised in the objection of 9 May, 2012 have been removed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Engellion (talk • contribs) 09:11, 28 February 2013 (UTC)

Bobbio Jerome

The Bobbio Jerome (Milan, Biblioteca Ambrosiana MS S. 45. sup.) is an early seventh-century manuscript copy of the Commentary on Isaiah attributed to St. Jerome. The manuscript has 156 pages and measures 235 by 215 mm. It is a palimpsest that previously contained a sixth-century copy of the Gothic translation of the Bible by Ulfilas written in Gothic uncial, with Rustic capitals as a display script.

The illumination of the manuscript consists of a large initial N on page two of the manuscript and several other minor initials. The N is as large as nine lines of the main text. It is written in black ink and decorated by whorl and cross patterns and pelta motifs. There are touches of green and orange. The cross bar is formed, in part, by two fish bent to form an S curve. The form of the N is comparable to the initial INI monogram of the opening illumination of the Gospel of Mark found in a fragmentary Gospel Book from Durham Cathedral.

On page two there is an inscription connecting the manuscript to Atalanus, who was St. Columbanus's successor as abbot of the monastery at Bobbio. Atalanus died in 622. If this inscription is accepted as authentic, then this manuscript was produced before 622, making its initial N one of the earliest Insular style initials, preceding even the Cathach of St. Columba.

This initial can be compared with the few decorated ones in Gregory the Great, Pastoral Care (Troyes, Bibliothèque Municipale, MS 504), from Rome, and about twenty years older.
