Talk:Rock music in Slovenia

Untitled
I live in Slovenia, have played guitar and keyboards in many bands, have been to many, many concerts and shows in the past 15 years, know the local scene here like my own pocket and then come here to Wikipedia and under Slovenian rock, I read one and only band called "hit et nunc" as representative of Slovenian rock ????????? My first response was: O.M.G., W.T.F. ??? I, all my friends, guitarsists, singers, drummers, keyboardists, anyone I asked, you name it, have NEVER EVER in entire life heard of a band, artist or whatever it is, called "hit et nunc". Also, after typing "hit et nunc" in Google, NOTHING comes out! That lead me to conclusion that: FIRST: the author of this article is talking about some other country! SECOND: the author of this article was heavily drunk when typing this article! OR, THIRD: "hit et nunc" is maby some teenage garage band that had just formed, playing in their parents basement and found Wikipedia to be excellent tool to make international promotion..
 * Feel free to make any changes you like, as long as they are in keeping with NPOV. Tuf-Kat 22:05, Feb 18, 2005 (UTC)

 * Heh, you must be quite young. Although Hic et Nunc may not be the most representative Slovenian Rock band they have been around for quite a while... Well, here's just one random of many links. And BTW, you've made a typo so Google ofcourse couldn't find anything... Peace.

Laibach
Though it may be questionable if Laibach can be confined to the boundaries of the description "rock music", one thing is certain. They operate and have always operated from Slovenia. The Teutonic thing is their image. There is a philosophy behind it, and it's certainly not "we are wannabe Germans", or "we live and work in Germany".

Editing out the part about them working in Germany. To whoever put that in - educate yourself. That's what wikipedia is for. The Laibach article is only a click away. Go on, click on the link, you know you want to. TomorrowTime 02:14, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

Aes Dana (band)

Aes Dana is a French Celtic/black metal band, based in Paris, France. The name of the band is Old Irish for "people of the arts".

The band mixes black metal features like growling vocals or heavy guitar sound with traditional Celtic instruments like the Irish flute or bombard. These characteristics, coming from the various influences of the band's early members (death metal, black metal, grindcore, and folk music), give the band a unique sound.

Their lyrics are primarily in French, and often deal with Celtic mythology.

Biography
Aes Dana was formed in 1994, with Taliesin (guitar) and Amorgen (Irish flute), soon joined by Vidar (vocals), Storm (drums), and Christophe (bass). Their first demo, Chroniques du crépuscule, had an atmospheric black metal sound.

In 1997 and 1999, Christophe was replaced by Milambre, and Storm by Juan Jolocaust, and Seth join Taliesin as second guitarist.

They their first full-length album in 2000. Seth left the band the same year, later to be replaced by Tilion.

The band soon started to add new traditional instruments such as the bombard to their music, and it was featured in their second album La chasse sauvage, released in 2001, and their third Formors, in 2005.

Until 2005, the band had an equal number of men and women their line-up. According to the band, it was not a deliberate decision, but a product of chance.

In 2006, Hades left the band was replaced by Myrddin. In 2008, Taliesin came back to replace Benoit, and Iréel replaced Tilion.

Brett Angell

Brett Ashley Mark Angell (born 20 August 1968) is an English football manager and former professional footballer.

As a player, he was striker and although notably spending time in the Premier League with Everton and Sunderland, he spent the rest of his career in the Football League with lengthy spells at Stockport County, Southend United and Walsall. He also played professionally for Portsmouth, Cheltenham Town, Derby County, Sheffield United, West Bromwich Albion, Notts County, Preston North End, Rushden & Diamonds, Port Vale and Queens Park Rangers. He retired in 2003 after scoring 200 goals in 540 games in all competitions. With Southend, he was promoted out of the Third Division 1990–91, and was also named on the PFA Team of the Year. He won promotion out of the Second Division with Stockport County and was later inducted into the club's Hall of Fame. He topped the Second Division with Preston North End in 1999–2000. He won his fourth promotion with Walsall after winning the Second Division play-off final in 2001. He was also listed in the 2006 book Cheltenham Town Football Club 50 Greats.

Following retirement, Angell moved into coaching, where he worked in the youth academies of both Bolton Wanderers and Portsmouth. He was appointed head coach of the New Zealand side Hawke's Bay United in September 2014.

Playing career
Angell started his career as a defender at Second Division side Portsmouth, but never made the first-team and was released in 1987. It wasn't until he joined Cheltenham Town in July 1987 that Angell was converted from defender to a striker by the club's then manager John Murphy, who had discovered the player at a 6-a-side game. He scored 22 goals in 1987–88, becoming the Conference club's top-scorer. In February 1988, he was signed by Arthur Cox at First Division club Derby County for a fee of £45,000.

He never played in the Derby first-team and was instead sold to Asa Hartford's Stockport County for a club-record £33,000 fee in October 1988. He struggled to break into the first-team at the Fourth Division club, but found his shooting boots when new manager Danny Bergara took over in March 1989. During the 1989–90 season, he scored four goals in one game against Hartlepool United. He finished the campaign with 23 goals in 43 league starts to become the division's top-scorer. However, following defeat to Chesterfield in the play-offs he handed in a transfer request.

Angell switched to Southend United, who had won promotion into the Third Division after finishing one point and one place ahead of County. Stockport wanted £250,000 for the player, but Southend only offered £15,000 – a Football League tribunal later set the fee at £100,000, though Stockport had to pay Derby £19,500 as part of an agreed sell-on clause. He formed an effective partnership with target-man Ian Benjamin and became joint-top scorer in the Third Division in 1990–91, as he and Bolton's Tony Philliskirk scored 26 goals. The "Shrimpers" won promotion as the Third Division's runners-up, finishing one point behind champions Cambridge United and two points ahead of fourth-placed Bolton.

Southend settled into the Second Division, finishing in the top half of the table in 1991–92. Again, Angell finished as the club's top scorer with 23 goals and was named the club's Player of the Year. The Roots Hall faithful continued to witness second-tier football in 1993–94; however, Angell attracted interest from bigger clubs and joined top-flight Everton on loan in September 1993 and again in January 1994. Despite Angell playing just one game in each spell, manager Mike Walker signed him for a fee of £500,000 on 21 January (£160,000 of this went to Stockport as part of a tribunal agreement made four years earlier). However, Angell had just undergone major surgery on his left leg and was unable to play to his full potential so it proved to be a disastrous spell, his only goal in nineteen games for the "Toffees" being a tap-in against Chelsea. Neville Southall later said that "the step up to the Premier League was probably too much for him" and he "had a first touch like a tackle". Manager Joe Royle sold Angell to Sunderland for £600,000 in March 1995, where he was similarly unsuccessful. He played eleven games for the "Black Cats", scoring once in the League Cup at Preston. Manager Mick Buxton was sacked shortly after Angell arrived at the club. He failed to impress new boss Peter Reid. He is widely regarded by fans of both Everton and Sunderland as one of the worst players to turn out for both of these clubs, where he failed to reproduce the form he showed in the lower divisions.

He was loaned out to First Division Sheffield United in January 1996, where he was reunited with Howard Kendall, who was manager at Everton during his first loan spell at the club. He scored twice in six games for the "Blades" before he was sent out on loan to West Bromwich Albion in March. Manager Alan Buckley used him as a substitute on three occasions before he returned to Roker Park. After being forced to train with the youth team at Sunderland, he returned to Stockport County in August 1996, now managed by Dave Jones, for a £120,000 fee.

Angell enjoyed a highly successful 1996–97 campaign when he was Stockport's leading goalscorer and inspired them to promotion to the First Division, as well as the semi-finals of the League Cup with victories over Chesterfield, Sheffield United, Blackburn Rovers, West Ham United and Southampton. He scored eighteen goals in 1997–98, helping County to record an eighth-place finish in the second tier. The club continued to survive in the second tier in 1998–99 and 1999–2000. However, Angell was loaned out to Second Division sides Notts County and Preston North End in the latter half of the 1999–2000 campaign. He hit five goals in six games for County and scored eight in seventeen games for Preston, who finished the season as Second Division champions.

He joined Second Division Walsall for 2000–01, in which he scored 13 goals in 48 games, including a hat-trick past Northampton Town. He picked up a play-off winners medal as he was an unused substitute in the 3–2 victory over Reading in the final. He scored 6 goals in 29 games in 2001–02, before he joined Third Division Rushden & Diamonds in March 2002. He played for Rushden at Cardiff in the play-off final, in which they lost 3–1 to former club Cheltenham Town. He was released by Rushden and then looked for a club near is home in Southport.

After two goals in seven games for Rushden, he joined Brian Horton's Port Vale on a short-term deal for the 2002–03 campaign. He scored seven goals in seventeen games, before leaving in November after the club were unable to offer him a long-term deal due to financial constraints. He then joined Ian Holloway's Queens Park Rangers. He played thirteen games for QPR and was an unused substitute in the play-off final defeat to Cardiff City at the Millennium Stadium – his third play-off encounter in as many years. Angell was heading to Ireland to play for Linfield in July 2003, however, the deal fell through as he refused to play trial games before signing a contract.

Coaching career
Angell worked as a youth team coach at Bolton Wanderers and Portsmouth. However, his tenure as youth and reserve team coach at Portsmouth lasted only five months, and he was relieved of his position in April 2006. After a similar position at Bolton Wanderers, Angell then worked as a Coach Educator, teaching coaching courses for the Football Association, before taking up a Central Football regional coaching job in New Zealand. He was appointed head coach at New Zealand Football Championship club Hawke's Bay United in September 2014. Some players made it known that they would have preferred incumbent head coach Chris Greatholder to have stayed, and were released by Angell. He took the club to third in 2014–15 and second in 2015–16, though he faced continued speculation over his future at the club. In May 2019 he confirmed that he would not take up the club's offer to reapply for the position.

Personal life
He is the brother of fellow professional footballer, Darren Angell.

George Camsell

George Henry Camsell (27 November 1902 – 7 March 1966) was an English footballer who scored a club record 325 league goals in 419 games for Middlesbrough, and 18 goals in nine appearances for England. His 59 goals in one season (1926–27) for Middlesbrough was a Football League record at the time, and has only been bettered once within the English game by Dixie Dean of Everton in 1927–28. His nine hat-tricks that season remains a Football League record. He also holds the highest goals-to-games ratio for England of anyone who has played more than a single international.

Club career
Born in Framwellgate Moor, Durham City in 1902, Camsell worked as a miner and played for Durham City. He caught the attention of Middlesbrough after scoring 21 goals in 20 games in a season and signed for Middlesbrough on 6 October 1925 for the sum of £500. His debut was against Nottingham Forest on 31 October 1925. He scored three goals for Middlesbrough in the 1925–26 season.

The Middlesbrough club record of 59 League goals in 37 games and 63 goals in all competitions in one season is held by Camsell. He accomplished this feat in the 1926–27 season, his first full season with Middlesbrough. After he had initially struggled for game time and almost joined Barnsley, he made his first appearance of the season on 18 September 1926 after Jimmy McClelland had suffered an injury. Having failed to score on that day, Camsell would only fail to score on two more occasions in the following 25 matches, taking in a run of 12 successive matches in which he scored at least once. He scored five on Christmas Day, 1926 against Manchester City and two more in the return fixture on 27 December. In February 1927, Camsell broke the record for league goals in a season by a player, having overtaken Jimmy Cookson's haul of 44 (for Chesterfield in 1925–26). 59 remains the second-highest number of league goals scored and the equal highest number in all competitions in one English league season, behind Dixie Dean's 60 league and 100 total a year later. The nine hat-tricks Camsell scored that season remains an English record for most in a League season.

Camsell was Middlesbrough's top scorer in each of his first ten full seasons, and he bagged at least 30 in each of the first five as well as the tenth. Between 1925 and 1939, Camsell scored 345 goals in 453 appearances for Middlesbrough, including 325 league goals, the fifth-highest league total of all-time. The 233 goals he scored in the first division ranks him the 13th all time top scorer in the top flight. He scored 24 hat-tricks in his career, 22 for Middlesbrough. He played his last League game for Middlesbrough against Leicester City at Ayresome Park on 10 April 1939, in a 3–2 victory. Camsell scored the opening goal. He continued to play for them into 1940 following the cessation of the 1939–40 Football League season during the Second World War, playing in wartime competitions.

International career
Camsell also won nine caps for England, scoring 18 goals. This is the highest goals-to-games ratio of anyone who has played more than a single international. His goals included a hat-trick in a 6–0 win against Wales on 20 November 1929 in the 1930 British Home Championship and four goals in a match against Belgium on 11 May 1929. He scored in every match he played for England; his nine consecutive scoring appearances are second only to Steve Bloomer.

Coaching career
During the Second World War, Camsell worked in local factories. After the war, he worked for Middlesbrough's backroom staff, firstly as a scout, where he discovered a young Brian Clough. He then became a coach and eventually the club's assistant secretary.

Death and legacy
Camsell retired in 1963 and died in 1966, aged 63, shortly before that year's World Cup. A suite at Middlesbrough's Riverside Stadium is named after him and in 2015, calls began for a statue of Camsell to be placed outside the stadium, joining those of George Hardwick and Wilf Mannion. A club spokesman said that such an honour could not be ruled out, adding: "As a club we honour and respect our former heroes and George Camsell is certainly one of those." A statue of George Camsell was subsequently erected outside the stadium, which was unveiled to the public on 2 September 2022. It is in front of the West Stand entrance.

1835 in sports

1835 in sports describes the year's events in world sport.

Boxing
Events
 * Still trying to resolve the English Championship title issue, James Burke has two scheduled fights but neither can take place. First, Harry Preston refuses to fight him; and then Young Langan is arrested on the eve of his fight for assaulting a police officer.
 * 21 July — in a non-title bout between two future contenders, Ben Caunt is disqualified for an alleged foul, striking William "Bendigo" Thompson when Thompson is sitting in his corner.

Cricket
Events
 * Powerless to prevent the use of roundarm bowling, MCC finally amends the Laws of Cricket to make it legal. The relevant part of the Laws states:
 * if the hand be above the shoulder in the delivery, the umpire must call "No Ball".

England
 * Bowlers’ hands now go above the shoulder and the 1835 Law must be reinforced in 1845 by removing benefit of the doubt from the bowler in the matter of his hand's height when delivering the ball.
 * The Laws are also changed to enforce a compulsory follow on if a team is 100 runs behind on first innings.
 * Most runs – James Cobbett 156 @ 15.60 (HS 31*)
 * Most wickets – William Lillywhite 42 (BB 7–?)

Horse racing
England
 * 1,000 Guineas Stakes – Preserve
 * 2,000 Guineas Stakes – Ibrahim
 * The Derby – Mündig
 * The Oaks – Queen of Trumps

Sounds like gibberish to me (since it refers to a sensory fish hair cell, and last time I checked fish didn't have hair). But maybe it makes sense to a biologist or medicine student, in which case please tell me if this is valid, dicdef or indeed gibberish. Radiant! 13:41, Feb 18, 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Actually, they are for real. However, they are those hairs in your inner ear that tell your brain about which way your head is accelerating. This definition has nothing to do with what they really are (except as a description of a special case, I presume). Therefore, not even transwikiable. I'm not a bio guy, so perhaps there's enough research to build a whole article out of, but I should imagine it probably should just be a dicdef. With the correct definition of course.

Either a short essay on how speling erors make you notable, or a stub for a Russian band that hasn't created an album yet. (the latter does google but isn't very notable of itself imho) Radiant! 13:48, Feb 18, 2005 (UTC)

Tony Purnell

Anthony John Purnell (born 23 May 1958 in Carshalton, Surrey) is an English engineering entrepreneur, and former principal of the Jaguar and Red Bull Formula One teams.

Pre-motorsport career
Before entering motorsports, Purnell had a lengthy academic career in England and the United States. A pupil of The John Fisher School, he gained a scholarship to study mechanical engineering at Manchester University in the 1970s: then won the Kennedy Scholarship at the MIT School of Engineering where he completed his master's degree. His dissertation was on the subject of Formula One aerodynamics.

After MIT, Purnell returned to the United Kingdom as a researcher at Cambridge University working on whole field continuous velocity determination in fluid flow. He did not complete his PhD, but began work on wind tunnel hardware and analysis software for the Lola organisation and consulted for the short-lived FORCE F1 team.

Purnell went on to found Pi Research (and its later spin-off Pi Technology) and by the late 1990s had built the company into a highly successful global electronics business. In 1999 this company was purchased by the Ford Motor Company making Purnell a multi-millionaire. Still under Purnell's management, Pi Research was made part of Ford's Premiere Performance Division alongside Cosworth and the Jaguar Formula One team.

Motorsport career
By 2002 the Jaguar team had failed to live up to its early promise under the direction of Neil Ressler, Bobby Rahal and finally Niki Lauda. In late 2002 the Austrian was unceremoniously dumped by Ford who now required a new principal for their flagship motor sport brand. Purnell was given the job, and alongside fellow countryman David Pitchforth, immediately set about restoring the team's fortunes.

The next two seasons saw a gradual improvement in results as Australian Mark Webber was signed to replace Eddie Irvine, and management stability began to pay dividends, but with parent company Ford needing to make financial savings the team's future was uncertain. By late 2004, after a series of budget cuts, Ford announced their withdrawal from Formula One placing Jaguar Racing, Pi Research and Cosworth up for sale.

With Jaguar's future now in serious doubt Purnell set about trying to locate a new owner, and on 15 November 2004 Red Bull announced that they had purchased the team. Red Bull Racing was born and new team owner Dietrich Mateschitz appeared to give his backing for Purnell to continue in his role of team principal.

The period of stability which Purnell had striven to achieve at Jaguar was short-lived however. By 7 January 2005 it had been announced that F3000 team owner Christian Horner would succeed him as principal and he left the team.

Numerous rumors surfaced linking Purnell to other Formula One teams, but in December 2006 it was announced that Purnell would return to the sport as a technical consultant to the governing body, the FIA. In addition to his FIA role he held the position of Royal Academy of Engineering Visiting Professor at the Engineering Department of Cambridge University and became a Fellow Commoner of Trinity Hall College.

In 2010, Purnell left the FIA and became part of the IndyCar Series' ICONIC committee which chose new engine and chassis specifications for the 2012 season.

Cycling career
In May 2013 Purnell joined British Cycling as head of its much-vaunted "Secret Squirrel Club" responsible for technical development, succeeding Chris Boardman. At the time he was a keen racing cyclist competing in UK events.

The 2016 Rio Olympic Games was a notable success for the GB cycling team with six gold, four silver and two bronze medals. Perhaps more significantly (from a technical point of view) was the tally of World and Olympic records for all velodrome events against the clock.

In September 2017 The Royal Academy of Engineering announced that Purnell had been awarded a Fellowship.

Personal life
Purnell is married to Alison and has two children, Lucy and Oliver.

Differential Education Achievement

Differential Educational Achievement (DEA) is a sociological term often given to a concept that disagrees with some of the functionalist views on education.

Many functionalists believe that an individual's academic success depends completely upon that person's IQ (intelligence quotient) and the effort they apply to their studies. They also believe that society works in a meritocratic system: that people work for what they achieve, and achieve what they deserve, according to their own merit and effort, i.e., they work hard to get the best jobs in later life.

Some other sociologists do not concur with this idea. They think that other factors have a more prominent impact on one's education. These factors may include social class background, gender and ethnicity.

Marxists believe that this is due to social class, and that in education only the ruling class values are transmitted. This means that working-class people find it difficult to connect with the education system. In this respect, according to this theory, many people from less affluent backgrounds are academically disadvantaged from the very start.

Patrick Hepburn, 1st Earl of Bothwell

Patrick Hepburn, 1st Earl of Bothwell (died 18 October 1508) was Lord High Admiral of Scotland. He rose to political prominence after supporting James IV against his father, and was proxy at the King's marriage.

Career
Patrick was the son of Adam Hepburn, Master of Hailes, and succeeded his grandfather also Patrick Hepburn as the 2nd Lord Hailes in (1482/1483). He or his grandfather held Berwick Castle against an English army led by Richard, Duke of Gloucester until the last week of August 1482, after which Berwick upon Tweed became a possession of England.

Under his territorial designation of "Patrick Hepburn of Dunsyre," he was made Sheriff of Berwickshire on 15 June 1480. Patrick Hepburn, Lord Hailes, was one of the Conservators of a truce with England on 20 September 1484. He was one of the leaders of the Confederate Lords who rebelled against King James III of Scotland, and he led the vanguard against the Royal array at the battle of Sauchieburn, 11 July 1488. Robert Birrel, a 16th-century writer, believed that he was one of those responsible for the murder of the king after the battle.

In the reign of James IV he rose to great power and held many offices including: Master of the King's Household, custodian of Edinburgh Castle, and Sheriff Principal of Edinburgh and Haddington. His son and heir Adam Hepburn, 2nd Earl of Bothwell was made Master of the Royal Stables. Patrick Hepburn was appointed Lord High Admiral of Scotland on 10 September 1488.

In September 1491, Bothwell went on a diplomatic mission to France to renew the Auld Alliance. He left from North Berwick aboard the Katherine. His fellow ambassadors were Robert Blackadder, Archbishop of Glasgow and the Dean of Glasgow. On 13 October 1488, he had a Crown charter of the feudal lordships of Chrichton and Bothwell, which were in the King's hands following the forfeiture of John Ramsay, Lord Bothwell. On 17 October the lordship of Bothwell was erected into an Earldom in his favour, and he was created the 1st Earl of Bothwell.

On 6 March 1492, he had a charter of the lands and lordship of Liddesdale, with Hermitage Castle, and more, upon the resignation of the same by Archibald Douglas, 5th Earl of Angus, the latter getting the lordship of Bothwell [but not the Earldom] which Patrick in turn resigned.

Patrick Hepburn was appointed Captain of Dumbarton Castle on 1 April 1495. He was one of the diplomats sent to conclude the treaty for the marriage of James IV with Princess Margaret Tudor of England in October 1501, and he stood proxy for the King at the ceremony of betrothal on 25 January 1502 at Richmond Palace. When Margaret Tudor came to Scotland in 1503 there was a tournament at Holyrood Palace, Hepburn and the English Earl of Surrey presided over the events while the king and queen watched from the palace windows. Hepburn played golf with James IV in Edinburgh in February 1504.

Family
He married twice:
 * Janet or Joanna Douglas, before February 1481, (d. before 21 February 1491), daughter of James Douglas, 1st Earl of Morton by his spouse, Princess Joanna Stewart. They had one daughter:
 * Joanna Hepburn, (d. 1558), married to George Seton, 5th Lord Seton, who fell at Flodden.
 * Margaret Gordon, by contract dated 21 February 1491, daughter of George Gordon, 2nd Earl of Huntly. They had four sons and a daughter:
 * Adam Hepburn, 2nd Earl of Bothwell, who succeeded him.
 * Patrick Hepburn of Bolton
 * William Hepburn of Rollandston
 * John Hepburn, Bishop of Brechin
 * Margaret Hepburn, married Archibald Douglas, 6th Earl of Angus

Hi, Is 8th PRIMEMINISTER Of India Mr. Chandrasekhar has any relation to begusarai district of Bihar.

I think there is a confusion Chandrasekhar Singh and Chandrasekhar, PM of India.

I am not much knowledgeable person but still just requesting to cross check the data. Kishor Krishna 94 (talk) 11:43, 27 August 2018 (UTC)

Habitual mistake
As in many indian tows the population is give for the district instead the city. There's a big problem for many people for distingish a city from a district. The given population for the city is 20 times above the real on because the write is the full district.--83.52.18.66 (talk) 17:58, 25 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Furthermore the administrative division of the district was enclosed in the city. Really this degrade the wikipedia quality. It can be a confiable source if this aspects are permited to the indians. You can imagine that will happen if in article New York City are stated the counties of New York state. This is not possible but is habitual in Indian districts/cities--83.52.18.66 (talk) 18:02, 25 May 2009 (UTC)

Updated/Verified
Added information, removed some un-necessary stuff. Do we need two different wiki pages for the district and the town? New York example makes little sense. It wouldn't make any sense for any Indian cities for that matter. The town information is not sufficient enough to make a separate article. I would suggest contributing to one article and making it worth-wile. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 122.172.18.77 (talk) 18:52, 30 July 2009 (UTC)

AMULET (processor)

AMULET is a series of microprocessors implementing the ARM processor architecture. Developed by the Advanced Processor Technologies group at the Department of Computer Science at the University of Manchester (formerly the AMULET and PAL groups based at the same institution), AMULET is unique amongst ARM implementations in being an asynchronous microprocessor, not making use of a square wave clock signal for data synchronization and movement.

List of AMULET microprocessors

 * AMULET1 — Designed in 1990 and first fabricated in 1993. Its estimated performance is approximately 70% of that of a comparably-sized synchronous ARM6 running at 20 MHz.
 * AMULET2 — A re-implementation of AMULET1 first fabricated in 1996. Features on-chip memory that can be used either as processor cache or mapped RAM.  The APT group estimates AMULET2 to have a similar power dissipation/performance ratio as ARM8.  One very notable feature due to the asynchronous design is the drop of power dissipation to 3 μW when not in use (assuming the on-board timer, which handles DRAM refresh, is also inactive).
 * AMULET3 — This was a redesigned architecture aiming at higher performance than the previous AMULET processors whilst retaining low power dissipation. Fabricated in 2000, it supported the ARM level 4 instruction set compatibility, alongside support for Thumb mode (i.e. ARM9TM). Performance and power dissipation were approximately the same as an ARM9 fabricated on the same technology.  AMULET3 was employed in a commercial prototype DECT device because of its inherent low electromagnetic interference characteristics.  This did not go into manufacture for non-technical reasons.

K. Beringen-Heusden-Zolder

K. Beringen-Heusden-Zolder was a Belgian football club, from the municipalities of Heusden-Zolder and Beringen in Limburg. Its stadium has been located in the municipality of Beringen-Mijn from 2004 to 2006 (after its relegation from the Belgian First Division).

History
It was founded in 1936 as S.K. Heusden and it eventually changed its name to K.S.K. Heusden. The team qualified for the third division in 1997. In 1999 the club merged with K.F.C. Helzold to become K. Heusden-Zolder S.K.. In 2000–01 it played in the second division for the first time and ended at 12th place, as it had won the third division playoff to Kortrijk after having lost the title to Mons in a test-match for the first place. The next season it finished 4th and it moved to the stadium of Genk.

In 2002–03 it qualified for the next Belgian First Division as it finished 3rd and won the final round. Doing this, the club became the fastest rising team ever in Belgian football history, being promoted five times in only 10 years without being relegated. At the end of the 2003–04 season however, the club was relegated and it changed its name at the same time. In 2005–06, K. Beringen-Heusden-Zolder did not ask for a 2nd division license because of financial problems and it was subsequently relegated to the third division on 2 March 2006 for the 2006–07 season. Some time later the club went into liquidation. On 25 April 2006, the club of Berkenbos V.V. playing in the Promotion C changed its name to KVV Heusden-Zolder.

Albert Einstein Memorial

The Albert Einstein Memorial is a monumental bronze statue by sculptor Robert Berks, depicting Albert Einstein seated with manuscript papers in hand. It is located in central Washington, D.C., United States, in a grove of trees at the southwest corner of the grounds of the National Academy of Sciences at 2101 Constitution Avenue N.W., near the Vietnam Veterans Memorial. Two replicas exist at the Israel Academy of Sciences and Humanities and the Georgia Institute of Technology.

Life
The memorial, situated in an elm and holly grove in the southwest corner of the grounds of the National Academy of Sciences, was unveiled at the Academy's annual meeting, April 22, 1979, in honor of the centennial of Einstein's birth. At the dedication ceremony, physicist John Archibald Wheeler described the statue as "a monument to the man who united space and time into space-time...a remembrance of the man who taught us...that the universe does not go on from everlasting to everlasting, but begins with a bang." The memorial is a popular spot for tourists visiting the national mall to pose for pictures.

The statue depicts Einstein seated in casual repose on a three-step bench of Mount Airy (North Carolina) white granite. The bronze figure weighs approximately 4 tons and is 12 feet in height. The monument is supported by three caissons, totaling 135 tons, sunk in bedrock to a depth of 23 to 25 feet., It was cast at Modern Art Foundry, Astoria Queens, NY.

The sculptor, Robert Berks, known for his portrait busts and statues (John F. Kennedy at the Kennedy Center; Mary McLeod Bethune in Lincoln Park, Washington, D.C.), based the work on a bust of Einstein he sculpted from life in 1953 at Einstein's Princeton home. Landscape architect James A. Van Sweden designed the monument landscaping.

Einstein was elected a foreign associate of the National Academy of Sciences in 1922, the year after he won the Nobel Prize in physics, and became a member of the Academy in 1942, two years after he became a naturalized American citizen.

Berks created two replicas of his 1979 monument. One of the replicas can presently be viewed in the academy garden of the Israel Academy of Sciences and Humanities; another on the campus of the Georgia Institute of Technology in Atlanta, Georgia.

Platform
The statue and bench are at one side of a circular dais, 28 feet (8.5 m) in diameter, made from emerald-pearl granite from Larvik, Norway. Embedded in the dais are more than 2,700 metal studs representing the location of astronomical objects, including the sun, moon, planets, 4 asteroids, 5 galaxies, 10 quasars, and many stars at noon on April 22, 1979, when the memorial was dedicated. The studs are different sizes to denote the apparent magnitude of the relevant object, and different studs denote binary stars, spectroscopic binaries, pulsars, globular clusters, open clusters, and quasars. The celestial objects were accurately positioned by astronomers at the U.S. Naval Observatory. Familiar constellations are marked on the map for easy identification.

To a visitor standing at the center of the dais, Einstein appears to be making direct eye contact, and any spoken words are notably amplified.

Description
Engraved as though written on the papers held in the statue's left hand are three equations, summarizing three of Einstein's most important scientific advances:

 * $$R_{\mu\nu} - {1 \over 2} g_{\mu\nu}R = \kappa T_{\mu\nu}$$ (the general theory of relativity)
 * $$eV=h\nu-A\,$$ (the photoelectric effect)
 * $$E=mc^{2}\,$$ (the equivalence of energy and matter)

Along the back of the bench, behind the statue, three famous quotations from the scientist are inscribed. They were selected to reflect Einstein's sense of wonder, scientific integrity, and concern for social justice. They are :
 * "As long as I have any choice in the matter, I shall live only in a country where civil liberty, tolerance, and equality of all citizens before the law prevail."
 * "Joy and amazement at the beauty and grandeur of this world of which man can just form a faint notion ..."
 * "The right to search for truth implies also a duty; one must not conceal any part of what one has recognized to be true."

In popular and artistic culture
The statue was filmed and subsequently used in the opening title sequence of Sesame Street during the show's 20th season.

A copy of the Albert Einstein Memorial made of 100% dark and white chocolate was once on display in the Marriott Wardman Park Hotel in Washington, DC.

In July 2012, the sculpture was yarn bombed by the Polish-born artist Olek, who enclosed the entire statue in a colorful crocheted wrap of pinks, purples, and teal.

Whirligig

A whirligig is an object that spins or whirls, or has at least one part that spins or whirls. It can also be a pinwheel, spinning top, buzzer, comic weathervane, gee-haw, spinner, whirlygig, whirlijig, whirlyjig, whirlybird, or simply a whirly. They are most commonly powered by the wind but can be hand-, friction- or motor-powered. They can be used as kinetic garden ornaments, and can be designed to transmit sound and vibration into the ground to repel burrowing rodents.

Types
Whirligigs can be divided into four categories: button, friction, string, and wind-driven.

Button whirligigs

Button whirligigs, also known as button spinners and buzzers, are the oldest known whirligigs. They require only a piece of clay or bone and a strip of hide. The ancient Greeks had their own version of this toy, called an iynx, and Native American cultures had another in 500 BC. Many a child of the Great Depression from the southern Appalachians and Ozarks remembers a button or token, or coin and a string as the primary spinning toy of their youth.

Button whirligigs are simple spinning toys whereby two looped ends of twisting thread are pulled with both arms, causing the button to spin. Button whirligigs are often seen today in craft shops and souvenir stores in the southern Appalachian Mountains.

Buzzers

Buzzers are button whirligigs that make a sound which can be modulated by how quickly the button is spinning and by the tightness of the string. A buzzer is often constructed by running string through two of the holes on a large button and is a common and easily made toy.

A buzzer (buzz, bullroarer, button-on-a-string) is an ancient mechanical device used for ceremonial purposes and as a toy. It is constructed by centering an object at the midpoint of a cord or thong and winding the cord while holding the ends stationary. The object is whirled by alternately pulling and releasing the tension on the cord. The whirling object makes a buzzing or humming sound, giving the device its common name.

American Natives used the buzzer as a toy and, also ceremonially, as to call up the wind. Early American buzzers were constructed of wood, bone, or stone, and date from at least the Fourche Maline Culture, c. 500 B.C.

Friction and string whirligigs
String-powered whirligigs require the operator to wrap the string around a shaft and then pull the string to cause the whirligig's motion. String whirligigs have ancient origins. The bamboo-copter or bamboo butterfly was invented in China in 400 BC. While the initial invention did not use string to launch a propeller, later Chinese versions did. The first known depictions of whirligigs are string-powered versions in tapestries from medieval times.

Friction whirligigs, also called gee-haws, depend on the holder rubbing a stick against a notched shaft resulting in a propeller at the end of the shaft turning, largely as the result of the vibration carried along the shaft. The motion needed to power a friction whirligig is very similar to rubbing sticks together to create fire. Friction whirligigs are another staple of craft shops and souvenir stores in the Appalachian Mountains.

Wind-driven

A wind-driven whirligig transfers the energy of the wind into either a simple release of kinetic energy through rotation or a more complicated transfer of rotational energy to power a simple or complicated mechanism that produces repetitive motions and/or creates sounds. The wind simply pushes on the whirligig turning one part of it and it then uses inertia.

The simplest and most common example of a wind-driven whirligig is the pinwheel. The pinwheel demonstrates the most important aspect of a whirligig—blade surface. Pinwheels have a large cupped surface area which allows the pinwheel to reach its terminal speed fairly quickly at low wind speed.

Increasing the blade area of the whirligig increases the surface area so more air particles collide with the whirligig. This causes the drag force to reach its maximum value and the whirligig to reach its terminal speed in less time. Conversely the terminal speed is smaller when thin or short blades with a smaller surface area are utilized, resulting in the need for a higher wind speed to start and operate the whirligig. Whirligigs come in a range of sizes and configurations, bounded only by human ingenuity. The two blade non-mechanical model is the most prevalent, exemplified by the classic Cardinal with Wings illustrated at right.

Etymology of the word
The word whirligig derives from two Middle English words: whirlen (to whirl) and gigg (top), or literally "to whirl a top". The Oxford English Dictionary cites the Promptorium parvulorum (c. 1440), the first English-Latin dictionary, which contains the definition "Whyrlegyge, chyldys game, Latin: giracu-lum". It is therefore likely the 1440 version of whirligig referred to a spinning toy or toys.

Origins and evolution

The origin of whirligigs is unknown. Both farmers and sailors use weather vanes, and the assumption is one or both groups are probably the originators. By 400 BC the bamboo-copter or dragon butterfly, a helicopter-like rotor launched by rolling a stick, had been invented in China. Wind-driven whirligigs were technically possible by 700 AD when the Sasanian Empire began using windmills to lift water for irrigation. The weather vane, which dates to the Sumerians in 1600–1800 BC, is the second component of wind-driven whirligigs.

In early Chinese, Egyptian, Persian, Greek, and Roman civilizations there are ample examples of weathervanes but as yet, no examples of a propeller-driven whirligig have been found. A grinding corn doll of ancient Egyptian origin demonstrates that string-operated whirligigs were already in use by 100 BC.

The first known visual representation of a European whirligig is contained in a medieval tapestry that depicts children playing with a whirligig, consisting of a hobby horse on one end of a stick and a four-blade propeller at the other end.

For reasons that are unclear, whirligigs in the shape of the cross became a fashionable allegory in paintings of the fifteenth and sixteenth century. An oil by Hieronymus Bosch, probably completed between 1480 and 1500 and known as the Christ Child with a Walking Frame, contains a clear illustration of a string-powered whirligig.

A book published in Stuttgart in 1500 shows the Christ child in the margin with a string-powered whirligig.

The Jan Provoost attributed late sixteenth-century painting Virgin and Child in a Landscape clearly shows the Christ child holding a whirligig as well.

The American version of the wind-driven whirligig probably did not originate with the immigrant population of the United Kingdom, as whirligigs are mentioned in early American colonial times. How the wind-driven whirligig evolved in America is not fully known, though there are some markers. George Washington brought whilagigs of an unknown design, while returning from the Revolutionary War.

By the mid-18th century weathervanes had evolved to include free moving "wings". These "wings" could be human arms; pitchforks; spoons, or virtually any type of implement. The 1819 publication by Washington Irving of The Legend of Sleepy Hollow contains the following description: "a little wooden warrior who, armed with a sword in each hand, was most valiantly fighting the wind on the pinnacle of the barn". By the latter half of the 19th century, constructing wind-driven whirligigs had become a pastime and art form. What began as a simple turning of artificial feathers in the wind advanced into full-blown mechanisms producing both motion and sound. Unfortunately, both the exposure to the weather and the fragile nature of whirligigs means very few wind-driven whirligigs from this era survive. The period between 1880 and 1900 brought rapid geographic expansion of whirligigs across the US. After 1900, production seemed for the most part to center on the southern Appalachians. Craftsman there continued to produce whirligigs into the 20th century. During the Great Depression a resurgence in production by craftsman and amateurs was attributed to the need for ready cash.

Today whirligigs are used as toys for children, as garden structures designed to keep birds or other garden pests away, as decorative yard art, and as art for indoors display.

As folk art

A number of encyclopedic museums and more-specialized folk art museums now have collections or examples of whirligigs in their collections.

When whirligigs became recognized as American folk art is unclear, but today they are a well established sub-category. With recognition, folk art whirligigs have increased in value.

The photo on the right is of a traditional whirligig commonly found in Bali, Indonesia. They are still available, and are often used in the rice paddies as the sound they make when the wind blows scares birds away. This example was found near Clarkrange, Tennessee, on the Highway 127 Corridor Sale. It represents an interesting example of a combination mechanical and sound producing whirligig.

The propeller, the Balinese farmer and the bull are of tin. The farmer and bull are painted but the propeller blades are not. The body is of hand whittled bamboo, fastened with rusty nails and wire and a single piece of string. There are still pencil marks where various pieces were centered and/or aligned.

The farmer is connected to the shaft of the whirligig by a bamboo stick with an offset where the stick connects to the shaft. The result is: as the shaft turns the farmer's arm lifts from the offset shaft which makes the farmer pull the string which lifts the bull's head. The shaft contains a second feature, a set of knockers that create a bit of music on raised pieces of bamboo. There are a total of six knockers which strike six bamboo plates. The bamboo plates are raised by placing a circular piece of bamboo or something similar between the knockers and the bamboo base. Each rotation causes three knockers to hit plates so the sound is actually different at each rotation. The knockers are nailed in pattern to the shaft.

Whirligigs from folk artist Reuben Aaron Miller and others are considered highly collectable. However, whirligigs' monetary value as folk art has been uneven. At a 1998 auction at Skinner Galleries, a 19th-century Uncle Sam with saw and flag in excellent condition sold for $12,650. At a 2000 auction at Skinner Galleries a 19th-century polychrome carved pine and copper band figure whirligig in excellent condition sold for $10,925 and an early 20th-century bike rider of painted wood and sheet metal sold for $3,450. In 2005, a 20th-century folk art whirligig in good condition brought $2,900 at an auction at Horst Auction Center in Lancaster, Pennsylvania.

In literature
William Shakespeare, in Twelfth Night, uses the whirligig as a metaphor for "what goes around, comes around".

In his play Cupid's Whirligig, Edward Sharpham has the deity of love cast a spell over a group of Londoners so that one falls for another, who falls for another, and so on until the final person falls for the first: a cupid's whirligig.

O. Henry wrote a short story called "The Whirligig of Life", about a mountain couple who decide to divorce and the events that lead to their remarriage told from the perspective of the judge.

Lloyd Biggle, Jr. wrote a novel titled The Whirligig of Time as part of his science fiction series featuring Jan Darzek, a former private detective.

In Whirligig, a novel by Paul Fleischman, a boy makes a mistake that takes the life of a young girl and is sent on a cross-country journey building whirligigs. In the Newbery Award-Winning young adult novel Missing May by Cynthia Rylant, Ob, the main character's uncle, makes whirligigs as a hobby. After his wife who loved the whirligigs dies, the whirligigs continue to move and symbolize the fact that life must go on for Ob.

In films
In the movie Twister, Helen Hunt's aunt Meg (played by Lois Smith) has a large collection of metal kinetic art whirligigs in her front yard to warn her of approaching tornadoes.

In science
Manu Prakash, an assistant professor of bioengineering, and Saad Bhamla, a postdoctoral student at Stanford University built in 2016 an inexpensive, hand-powered centrifuge based on this ancient toy, that could help doctors working in developing countries.

Talk:Newspaper of record

China
I added in a line for China, the People's Daily (人民日报), but it has been deleted. I presume this is because the People's Daily is controlled by the Communist Party and therefore arguably a propaganda instrument as well as a newspaper. (I'm guessing, because the person who deleted it didn't have he courtesy to explain why.) However, it is nevertheless the most widely known and indeed most widely cited of Chinese newspapers and for this reason I suggest that it be included. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dena.walemy (talk • contribs)
 * . Hey there. I was the one who reverted it. Here's the diff. The message I left was Restored revision 1028065109 by Finnusertop (talk): Failed verification. cited source does not call the newspaper a "newspaper of record". Feel free to add it back if you can find a reliable source that calls it a newspaper of record. – Novem Linguae (talk) 18:07, 24 June 2021 (UTC)
 * I have added this to the sub-section on "official newspapers of record" (wtih a reference); however, it is clearly not a "newspaper of record by reputation" given the state contorl of the editorial. 78.18.251.161 (talk) 20:22, 13 May 2022 (UTC)

Removed: The Cambodia Daily and The Phnom Penh Post, Cambodia
The Hun Sen administration forced the The Cambodia Daily to close in 2017 and forced The Phnom Penh Post to sell to an ally of Hun Sen (and therefore no longer recognized as a newspaper of record). Have moved them to the "fallen newspapers" section. 78.18.251.161 (talk) 11:43, 14 May 2022 (UTC)

Removed: Clarin, Argentina
An editor Profeperfetti keeps adding the Clarin but none of the refs provided name it a Newspaper or Record (and none qualify as a reference per WP:RS). I have looked for refs that might support it as a NoR, but none exist. Just having a large daily circulation does not mean that the paper is a recognized NoR (e.g. The Daily Mail). 78.19.224.254 (talk) 19:26, 23 July 2022 (UTC)

Why is Politika not listed as the NoR of Serbia?
As far as I, as a second-generation member of the Serbian diaspora, am aware, Politika, which is not only the oldest newspaper in circulation in Serbia but in the entire Balkan region (1904), is the newspaper of record of Serbia. In fact, I'm sure I've seen it listed in this article in the past. As for the newspaper that *is* listed as Serbia's NoR, Danas, I've never heard of it, and there's only one source (a Voxeurop article) that says it is Serbia's NoR. In any case, the Wikipedia article Mass media in Serbia lists both Danas *and* Politika as Serbian newspapers of record. Could this be resolved? 109.249.187.45 (talk) 18:41, 3 August 2022 (UTC)

 * For some reason this was taken out even through it is supported by references (which are not too distant). I have restored it. Aszx5000 (talk) 21:09, 27 April 2024 (UTC)

Official Newspapers of Record
"Newspapers of Record" are defined as as publicly available newspaper that is authorized by a government to publish public or legal notices. The subsection "official newspapers of record" gives three examples of newspapers that would still fit that definition. It is slightly confusing not listing them in the main list even though they are state controlled. I suggest putting all three in the main list. If it is important to distinguish them from other papers, then add a footnote explaining that all their content is state-controlled. Bacon Man (talk) 13:33, 5 September 2022 (UTC)
 * The main list is "newspapers of record by reputation" (per section heading), and none of those three papers would be considered as such. 78.19.234.110 (talk) 22:51, 7 September 2022 (UTC)
 * A newspaper of record is any paper in a community that has a large enough circulation, as determined by the United States Postal Service, to be able to publish legal notices. The local and state governments are required to publish legal notices that give the public access to amounts of money they have spent (warrants), resolutions, ordinances, public hearings and other government business that the public is able to view and ought to be public. When published in the newspaper of record, the document cannot be changed. The date of the publication is also published. Those things cannot be changed. The government has no control of record once it is published. The government does not authorize the newspaper of record, the United States Postal Service does. 70.59.61.69 (talk) 15:40, 30 April 2023 (UTC)

Regional newspapers, USA
Some large-city newspapers have international reputations of quality and relevance. I notice that no newspaper is mentioned from such populous states as Texas, Florida, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Georgia, Michigan, Illinois, or North Carolina. Pbrower2a (talk) 05:39, 29 May 2023 (UTC)

 * The list is of general nationwide NoRs (that are referenced as such). If there were regional papers (that could also be referenced as NoRs, and reputationally, not from government notices which is the earlier section), then we could have a second table for that? Aszx5000 (talk) 07:57, 29 May 2023 (UTC)

Washington Blade
I took this out of the table of general national papers that are NoRs and placed it on its own list as it is different. If there are more subject-specific examples, than we should do as a table. Aszx5000 (talk) 08:05, 29 May 2023 (UTC)

 * We have no reason to qualify the Washington Blade. The wiki article for the Blade mentions it being a "gay newspaper of record," but the citations it uses for that are all dead, bringing that sentence into question. Until it can be proven otherwise, it should not be listed at all on those grounds.
 * And regardless, we should not list it, and thusly create a separate table until we have more than one subject to discuss. FormalDude's addition, given its timing, seems more about Pride month than anything else. I would be extra cautious about these additions. Brokenwit (talk) 17:21, 7 June 2023 (UTC)
 * That's ridiculous, I don't correspond my edits with commemorative months.
 * Additionally, none of the four sources used here are dead:

 * If you have a problem with the wiki article on the Blade, the place to address is Talk:Washington Blade, not here. And there is more than one item in the separate table. Since it's clearly verified, please self-revert your removal. –– Formal Dude  (talk)  08:00, 3 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Pinging . –– Formal Dude  (talk)  08:01, 3 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Any thoughts on this? –– Formal Dude  (talk)  21:09, 12 October 2023 (UTC)
 * I thought it was fine to have a separate section on subject-specific notable national newspapers of record? I found a reference from the Washington Post saying that the Blade is: widely regarded as the national newspaper of record for the gay community, and HuffPost quoting it was dubbed by the New York Times the “newspaper of record for the LGBT community.” That seems worthy of adding (but in a separate table or in a separate list form). I could not find the same standard of references for the Advocate, and I think we should keep the examples listed in this article to the very strongest candidates. Thanks. Aszx5000 (talk) 13:01, 13 October 2023 (UTC)

This thing, standing out as the sole element within its own category, is WP:UNDUE and US-centric. It should be removed. Normchou  💬 21:49, 13 December 2023 (UTC)

Examples of fallen newspapers/Selected existing examples
The article organization is awkward; subheadings under "By Reputation" are "Etymology", "Examples of fallen newspapers" and "Selected existing examples". Because of the order and the minimalist assumption of the titling of the subsection "Selected existing examples" it almost conflates to the casual reader as "Selected existing examples" of (the prior topic) "fallen newspapers", if the bulleted list under the "fallen newspapers" were assumed to be no longer in publication. (Changing the subsequent heading to "Selected examples of existing newspapers of record by reputation" would be more precise.) However, it would ultimately be less confusing to move the "Examples of fallen newspapers" to the end of the article, after the tables of "Selected existing examples". — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.107.184.117 (talk) 18:36, 2 December 2023 (UTC)

 * I have re-named the headings and re-ordered the subsections. Hope that looks better now. Aszx5000 (talk) 11:53, 3 December 2023 (UTC)
