Football at the 1980 Summer Olympics

The football tournament at the 1980 Summer Olympics started on 20 July and ended on 2 August. Only one event, the men's tournament, was contested. Seven qualified countries did not participate, joining the American-led boycott in protest of the December 1979 Soviet invasion of Afghanistan.

Sixteen teams were divided into four groups:
 * Group A (USSR, Cuba, Venezuela, Zambia)
 * Group B (Colombia, Kuwait, Nigeria, Czechoslovakia)
 * Group C (Algeria, Spain, GDR, Syria)
 * Group D (Costa Rica, Finland, Iraq, Yugoslavia)

In the technical report following the competition, FIFA reported that: "Compared with the 1979 World Youth Tournament in Japan and the 1978 World Cup finals in Argentina, the standard of football at the Olympic Football Tournament was generally of an inferior quality,".

The tournament was primarily hosted by Moscow and Leningrad in the Russian SFSR, with some group stage games in Kiev, Ukrainian SSR and Minsk, Byelorussian SSR.

Venues
The football tournament was the most attended event on these Olympics: 1,821,624 spectators watched 32 matches of it at the stadiums.

Qualification
Due to the American-led boycott, countries (in brackets) who qualified did not enter the final tournament. Spain sent a team under the IOC flag. The following 16 teams qualified for the 1980 Olympics football tournament:

Stephan Andersen

Stephan Maigaard Andersen (born 26 November 1981) is a Danish professional football player, who plays as a goalkeeper for VB 1968. He was a full international for the Denmark national team and was chosen to represent his country at UEFA Euro 2004, the 2010 FIFA World Cup and UEFA Euro 2012.

Early years
Starting his career at the youth teams of Hvidovre IF, he moved youth setup of multiple Danish champions Brøndby IF. When he was no longer seen as a long-term prospect for the Brøndby goalkeeping position, he left Brøndby in the winter 1999, to rejoin Hvidovre. Andersen made his senior debut for Hvidovre IF in the lower league Danish 1st Division, and was recognized as a big talent.

AB
In March 2002, Hvidovre owner, and professional goalkeeper, Peter Schmeichel chose to end his engagement in the club. Hvidovre actively sought to off-load Andersen, one of two professional players in the squad. He was initially wanted by a number of clubs in English football, including Schmeichel's club Aston Villa and Sunderland, the club of Danish international goalkeeper Thomas Sørensen. Sunderland opted to buy Norwegian international goalkeeper Thomas Myhre instead, and no other foreign offers materialized. Andersen moved to Akademisk Boldklub (AB) in the top-flight Danish Superliga championship in August 2002.

Charlton Athletic
He moved abroad to join English club Charlton Athletic in a DKK 8 million transfer deal in June 2004. In his first season with the London club, he only made two first team appearances. Due to an injury sustained by first choice goalkeeper Dean Kiely, Andersen started the 2005–06 season in the team. Charlton's poor mid-season form saw him dropped in favour of Kiely at first, then Thomas Myhre, who established himself as first choice as Charlton turned their season around. Andersen was reinstated into the lineup for the last two games of the season, when Myhre suffered an injury. In the 2006 summer transfer window, Andersen looked ready to join Leeds United on a season-long loan deal, but as Charlton insisted on a clause to allow the club to recall Andersen at any time during the season, the transfer fell through at the last moment. In the first half of the 2006–07 season, he saw the loaned-in Scott Carson become Charlton's starting goalkeeper.

Brøndby IF
In November 2006, Andersen signed a transfer deal to move back to Denmark to play for Superliga side Brøndby IF at the start of the January 2007 transfer window. He made some errors in his first time at the club, dropping against Odense Boldklub and Viborg FF, but was kept in the starting line-up and eventually upped his game. He helped Brøndby win the 2008 Danish Cup, and was named 2008 Danish Goalkeeper of the Year.

Later career
In August 2011 he joined former teammate Daniel Wass at Évian in the French Ligue 1 for a fee of DKK 2 million. In the summer of 2013 he signed a two-year contract with Real Betis of the Spanish La Liga. He was sent on loan to Dutch Eredivisie side Go Ahead Eagles on 30 January 2014 for the remainder of the 2013–14 season. On 19 May 2014, it was announced he would return to Denmark on a permanent deal, signing a three-year contract with Superliga side FC Copenhagen, the main rivals of his previous club Brøndby. On 17 June 2021, Copenhagen confirmed that he had left the club.

On 12 September 2021, Andersen joined Danish amateur club VB 1968.

International career
Andersen was called up for the Denmark under-21 national team in June 2001, where he immediately displaced the two-years older Rune Pedersen. While at AB, he reached 21 games for the Danish under-21 national team, and was the first goalkeeper to win a Danish talent award, when he was named 2003 Danish under-21 Talent of the Year.

Following strong displays for AB, Andersen made his Danish national team debut against Spain in a March 2004 friendly match. It would be four-and-a-half years before he got his second cap. He was selected as a backup goalkeeper for the Denmark national team for the 2004 European Championship, where Thomas Sørensen was preferred as the starting goalkeeper in every game. While playing for Brøndby, Andersen got his second cap in September 2008, and replaced the injured Thomas Sørensen for three games in the 2010 FIFA World Cup qualification. He was included in the Denmark national team for the 2010 FIFA World Cuptournament. After the injured Thomas Sørensen was ruled out of UEFA Euro 2012, Andersen replaced him as the first-choice goalkeeper for the Danish national team.

Carlingford Lough

Carlingford Lough (, Ulster Scots: Carlinford Loch ) is a glacial fjord or sea inlet in northeastern Ireland, forming part of the border between Northern Ireland to the north and the Republic of Ireland to the south. On its northern shore is County Down, the Mourne Mountains, and the town of Warrenpoint; on its southern shore is County Louth, the Cooley Mountains and the village of Carlingford. The Newry River flows into the loch from the northwest.

Name
The English name Carlingford and the Irish name Loch Cairlinn come from the Old Norse Kerlingfjǫrðr, meaning "narrow sea-inlet of the hag" or old woman. This may have referred to the three mountain tops, locally called The Three Nuns, frequently used as pilot points on entering the lough. Its earlier Irish name was Snámh Aighneach, meaning "swift sea-channel". It could also mean "swift swimming-place", referring to a crossing point which could be swum by horses, probably Narrow Water.

An older English name was Nury (Newry) Bay.

Geography
The Newry River and the Newry Canal link the lough to the nearby city of Newry (the canal continues on towards the River Bann and Lough Neagh; the river, under the name River Clanrye, loops around County Down). The only other glacial fjords in Ireland are Lough Swilly and Killary Harbour.

On the northern coast, in County Down, are the coastal towns of Warrenpoint and Rostrevor, backed by the Mourne Mountains. On the southern coast are Omeath, Carlingford and Greenore backed by the Cooley Mountains, all on the Cooley Peninsula in County Louth.

Tourism
The area has been a tourist destination since Victorian times when the railway between Dublin and Belfast was opened. Situated approximately halfway between the two cities, the access to the area combined with its scenery and sheltered location are still factors in its popularity today.

Flora and fauna
The northern shores have extensive mudflats and salt marshes which provide winter feeding areas for the pale-bellied brent goose (Branta bernicla hrota). At the mouth of the lough are several small rock and shingle islands which are breeding areas for terns that feed in its shallow waters.

Protected areas
The lough is designated as an Important Bird Area.

The Carlingford Lough Ramsar site (wetlands of international importance designated under the Ramsar Convention), is 830.51 hectares in area, at latitude 54 03 00 N and longitude 06 07 00 W. It was designated a Ramsar site on 9 March 1998. It is a cross-border site, with the northern shore lying within Northern Ireland (including the lough's more extensive mudflats and a salt marsh), and the southern shore lying in the Republic of Ireland (where the Carlingford Lough Special Protection Area falls within the scope of the National Parks and Wildlife Service).

Ferry
The Greencastle-Greenore ferry crossing opened in 2017. It is used by local and by tourists, particularly in the summer months.

Railway
Newry is the nearest station located on the Dublin-Belfast railway line with trains running on the Enterprise between Belfast Grand Central, Portadown and Dublin Connolly, whilst other trains may call at additional stations en route to Bangor.

Until its closure in the early 1950s, the southern side of the lough was served by the Dundalk, Newry and Greenore (DNG) railway line. Sections of this line now form part of the Carlingford Lough greenway.

Navigation
The lough is navigable, and its seaward entrance is marked by the Haulbowline Lighthouse, which was built in 1824.

There is a deep water cargo port at Greenore, and a smaller fishing harbour at Carlingford. A commercial marina lies north of Carlingford town, close to the start of the greenway.

Per Krøldrup

Per Billeskov Krøldrup (born 31 July 1979) is a Danish former professional footballer who played as a defender.

He has played 33 games for the Denmark national team, and was part of their squad for the 2004 European Championship.

Early career
Born in Farsø, Krøldrup started his footballing career at Danish lower league clubs Farsø/Ullits IK and Aalborg Chang. He then went on to play for Copenhagen-based B.93 in the second-tier Danish 1st Division before transferring to Udinese in the Italian top-flight Serie A championship in 2001. In his final season at the club, they finished fourth and qualified for the UEFA Champions League.

Everton
In June 2005, Krøldrup moved from Udinese to English club Everton on a four-year deal for a transfer fee of £5million. Before having played a single game for the club, he suffered a groin injury and had to undergo surgery. He made his debut for Everton on 26 December 2005 in a 4-0 defeat to Aston Villa, which was to be his only league game for the club.

His Everton career was later described as one of the worst transfers in the history of the club and English football, and Krøldrup has stated his difficulties of adapting to the physical aspects of the English game.

Fiorentina
Krøldrup transferred back to Italy on 19 January 2006, when he joined ACF Fiorentina, 31 days after his Everton debut.

Following the 2006 Serie A scandal, where several clubs were on trial for match fixing, Fiorentina were initially relegated to Serie B in July 2006. Krøldrup was amongst the players wanting to leave. However, as Fiorentina made an appeal to the Italian Football Federation, the club remained in Serie A and most of their players, including Krøldrup, remained with the Florence club. He made his Champions League debut on 12 August 2008 against Slavia Prague, a 2–0 win for La Viola.

Krøldrup's contract with Fiorentina was set to expire in June 2010, but on 17 May 2010 he signed a new deal that expired in 2012.

Pescara and Olhanense
On 8 March 2013, Krøldrup signed a short-term contract with Serie A club Delfino Pescara 1936 for the rest of the 2012–13 season.

After a Summer as a free agent, he signed for Olhanense of the Portuguese Primeira Liga on 1 October 2013.

International career
At Udinese, Krøldrup played alongside Danish national team player Martin Jørgensen, who claimed that Krøldrup was ready for the Danish national team in March 2002. Krøldrup was not called up for the national team until February 2004, making his debut against Turkey. He was a part of the Danish squad for the 2004 European Championship, though he did not play any games at the tournament.

René Henriksen

René Henriksen (born 27 August 1969) is a Danish former professional footballer who played as a defender for Danish club Akademisk Boldklub and Panathinaikos in Greece. Henriksen was capped 66 times for the Danish national team, and he represented his country at two FIFA World Cups and two European Championship tournaments. He is currently a scout for Panathinaikos.

Career
Born in Glostrup, Henriksen started playing for nine-times Danish champions Akademisk Boldklub (AB) in 1988, then in the lower leagues of Danish football. AB joined the top-flight Danish Superliga championship in 1996, and Henriksen established himself as one of the best defenders in the league. From his libero position, his elegance, technique and anticipation made him an efficient organizer of the AB defense. AB coach Christian Andersen proclaimed Henriksen as "Denmark's best libero", and in March 1998 he was called up for the Danish national team by national team manager Bo Johansson. He made his debut in the friendly match 1–0 win against Scotland as he came on as a substitute at half time, replacing defender Jacob Laursen. Henriksen was selected to represent Denmark at the 1998 FIFA World Cup, though he did not play any games at the tournament.

He won the "Danish Cup Fighter" award when AB triumphed in the 1999 Danish Cup, as the club won its first trophy in 32 years. With a year left of his contract, he left AB in the summer 1999, after eleven years playing for the club. He moved to Greece to play for Panathinaikos in a transfer deal allegedly worth 20 million DKK. He became a starting player for the Danish national team, and represented Denmark at the 2000 European Championship, where he played full-time in Denmark's three matches. Subsequently, he received the 2000 Danish Player of the Year award.

He was joined at Panathinaikos by fellow Dane and former AB player Jan Michaelsen in 2001, and the two players were important pieces in Panathinaikos' UEFA Champions League campaigns. Most notably, the club reached the quarter-final of the 2001–02 tournament before being eliminated by Spanish club FC Barcelona. Henriksen was an important member of the national team at the 2002 FIFA World Cup, where Denmark reached the round of 16. After the tournament, team captain Jan Heintze retired from the national team, and Henriksen was named new team captain by national team manager Morten Olsen.

The 2003–04 season was Henriksen's most successful year at Panathinaikos, as the club broke rivals Olympiacos' seven-year streak when they won the 2004 Greek Super League. Panathinaikos also won the 2004 Greek Cup, to complete "The Double". Henriksen played Denmark's four games at the 2004 European Championship, before he ended his national team career after the tournament. He played a total of 66 national team games, 25 of which were as captain. Even though he did not score any goals, his elegant playing style meant he only received two yellow cards during his national team career.

In the summer break 2005, Henriksen returned to AB, now in the second-tier Danish 1st Division league. He helped the team avoid relegation in the 2005–06 season, before he ended his career in the summer 2006.

Honours

 * Danish Cup: 1999

Panathinaikos
 * Greek Super League: 2004
 * Greek Cup: 2004

Talk:Circumcision scar

Why can't this be in male circumcision? JoaoRicardo 22:13, 4 Feb 2005 (UTC)

POV
Now it is my turn to call POV. Mentioning that Cold and Taylor oppose circumcision in this context implies that their research has been compromised by their beliefs. Unless you have evidence that this is the case, the comment is POV and does not belong in Wikipedia. Christopher 12:55, 4 November 2005 (UTC)
 * No, the statement is factual. If it said "which has compromised their work", it would be POV, but it doesn't. Both authors have presented at symposia organised by NOCIRC, an organisation committed to an anti-circumcision cause. Jakew 13:04, 4 November 2005 (UTC)
 * I'm not disputing that they oppose circumcision, I can't imagine why an unbiased qualified professional would endorse RIC. I am disputing the bearing that it has on the article. Unless we are noting the POV of every source on this page (and that would be impossible to do without expressing a POV) it is POV to single out a source with a disclaimer. Besides, are we assuming that our audience is too stupid to pick up that Cold and Taylor oppose circumcision if they follow the link? Also, I said that the sentence implied that their work was compromised, not that it was explicit. Christopher 13:30, 4 November 2005 (UTC)
 * I have no objection to noting the POV of other sources, especially if there is documented evidence that they are politically active in their support of or opposition to circumcision. Jakew 14:48, 4 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Do Cold and Taylor oppose all circumcision? Adult, elective circumcision?  Religious circumcision of minors?  Social circumcision of minors?  Prophylactic medical circumcision of infants?  I'm left wondering this from the comment in the article.  Circumcision occurs in many contexts, and I don't think there is justification form the sources to claim a blanket opposition on the part of Cold and Taylor, based on their published materials.  Might that bit of synthesis represent a touch of original research?  On the other hand, if you can find a Reliable Source in which Cold and Taylor state their opposition to circumcision (rather than explaining the type of tissue removed, or the relationship between human and non-human primate prepuces, or speculating on the consequences of the removal of the tissue, etc.), then by all means cite it.Zandrous 18:13, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

Kiddie porn link?
OK, I just took a look at CIRClist gallery that's linked at the bottom of the page, and there's a photo of a kid there who doesn't look a day over 14. Are there any implications for linking to it from WP? Benami 02:38, 15 January 2006 (UTC)
 * No it has implications for you.... --Wolfmankurd 15:29, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

I agree. There is clearly a pro-circumcision agenda at work here. What is the fetish with a scarred penis? I am an intact man and wanted to add a few links and short paragraphs about botched circumcision scarring and the effect of restoration on circumcision scars, and they seem to have been edited out in favor of a scar-fetish POV. Wolfmankurd's response is inappropriately defensive and insulting. Benami's question is a valid one.

Agreed that some of the photos on the linked galleries are questionable. I'm removing, just to keep Wiki safe from possible links to child porn.A.V. 17:11, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

Off topic external link
First, I think the "Circumcision May offer Africa AIDS Hope" link added by 70.105.99.76 is not appropriate for this article. Second, http://www.cirp.org/library/disease/HIV/vanhowe4/ which sites "International Journal of STD & AIDS" Volume 1, January 1999" and http://www.pubmedcentral.nih.gov/articlerender.fcgi?artid=1262558 states that recommending routine circumcision to prevent HIV is scientifically unfounded so I would be careful about POV. If someone agrees, feel free to remove the link. Matthewc1 10:38, 28 December 2006 (UTC)
 * The first is eight years old, and was criticised for methodological flaws . The second does not state what you claim, but instead concludes that: "Crucially, the results of two additional trials underway in Uganda and Kenya [the same trials that have recently completed] are awaited. Considering the results of all three trials together is likely to provide us with stronger evidence to guide policy." Jakew 11:08, 28 December 2006 (UTC)

I have a link to the recently completed Uganda and Kenya studies regarding HIV risk and circumcision, but I'm having trouble adding it to the article. Maybe someone with more Wiki skills will add it.

Relevance of masturbation?
Might not be a big deal, but what is the relevance of masturbation's illegality in Iran to the topic "circumcision scar"? Zandrous 09:47, 16 July 2007 (UTC)

Anecdotal comment is Original Research
The anecdotal comment about how circumcised men masturbate is original research without a reliable source claiming this information. Zandrous 12:30, 27 July 2007 (UTC) So I have removed it. Zandrous 11:13, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

There is a lot of dissinformation in the piece. I am circumcised and have never seen a circumcision scar and did not know there was a masterbation issue. Where do you get your information from? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.30.27.190 (talk) 20:27, 23 July 2011 (UTC)

Boule de Suif

"Boule de Suif", translated variously as "Dumpling", "Butterball", "Ball of Fat", "Ball of Lard", or "Small Ball", is a short story by the late-19th-century French writer Guy de Maupassant, first published on 15/16 April 1880. It is arguably his most famous short story and is the title story for his collection on the Franco-Prussian War, titled Boule de Suif et Autres Contes de la Guerre (Dumpling and Other Stories of the War).

Plot
The story follows a group of French residents of Rouen, recently occupied by the Prussian army. The ten travellers decide for various reasons to leave Rouen and flee to Le Havre in a stagecoach. Sharing the carriage are Boule de Suif or "Butterball" (lit. suet dumpling, also translated as ball of fat), a prostitute whose real name is Elisabeth Rousset; the strict Democrat Cornudet; a shop-owning couple from the petty bourgeoisie, M. and Mme. Loiseau; a wealthy upper-bourgeoisie factory-owner and his wife, M. and Mme. Carré-Lamadon; the Comte and Comtesse of Bréville; and two nuns. Thus, the carriage constitutes a microcosm of French society, representing different parts of the French population during the late 19th century.

Due to the terrible weather, the coach moves very slowly and by midday has only covered a few miles. The occupants initially snub Boule de Suif, but their attitudes change when she produces a picnic basket full of lovely food and offers to share its contents with the hungry travellers.

At the village of Tôtes, the carriage stops at the local coaching inn, and the occupants, hearing a German voice, realise they have blundered into Prussian-held territory. A Prussian officer detains the party at the inn indefinitely without telling them why. Over the next two days, the travellers become increasingly impatient, and are finally told by Boule de Suif that they are being detained until she agrees to sleep with the officer. She is repeatedly called before the officer, and always returns in a heightened state of agitation. Initially, the travellers support her and are furious at the officer's arrogance, but their indignation soon disappears as they grow angry at Boule de Suif for not sleeping with the officer so that they can leave. Over the course of the next two days, the travelers use various examples of logic and morality to convince her it is the right thing to do; she finally gives in and sleeps with the officer, who allows them to leave the next morning.

As they continue on their way to Le Havre, these "representatives of Virtue" ignore Boule de Suif and turn to polite topics of conversation, glancing scathingly at the young woman while refusing to even acknowledge her, and refusing to share their food with her the way that she did with them earlier. As the coach travels on into the night, Cornudet starts whistling the Marseillaise which sours the mood of everyone in the coach, and all the while Boule de Suif, bemoaning her lost dignity, can hardly suppress her sobs.

Publication history
It was first published in 1880 in Les Soirées de Médan, a collection of Naturalist short stories dealing with the Franco-Prussian war.

Adaptations
The plot has often been adapted, in whole or in part, for films and other media:
 * In 1928 in the US, a silent film version was The Woman Disputed by Henry King & Sam Taylor.
 * In 1932, also in the US, Shanghai Express by Josef von Sternberg, starring Marlene Dietrich, was loosely based on the story, with significant changes.
 * In 1934, the Moscow Art Players, under the auspices of the Soviet studio Mosfilm, produced a silent film version of "Boule de Suif" called Pyshka (Dumpling). It was adapted and directed by Mikhail Romm and starred Galina Sergeyеva. The film was re-released by Mosfilm in 1955 with a narration and sound effects added to it, but remained unknown outside of Russia until its belated premiere in New York in 1958. New York Times reviewer Howard Thompson describes the film as "little more than a musty curio" but with a storyline that "is still pretty wonderful as a yarn and a scathing commentary on hypocrisy and selfishness"
 * In 1935 in Japan, Kenji Mizoguchi made Maria no Oyuki (Oyuki the Virgin).
 * Of his 1939 U.S.A film Stagecoach, John Ford said it was "really 'Boule de Suif'" and McBride attributes the "film's sharp social criticism" to its being "more deeply influence[d] by Maupassant" than by Ernest Haycox's 1937 short story "The Stage to Lordsburg" that established the framework of the film itself.
 * In 1940 Irish playwright Lennox Robinson adapted the story for the stage under the name Roly Poly. The production premiered at the Gate Theatre in November 1940. The production was directed by Hilton Edwards.
 * In 1943 in the US, a remake of Shanghai Express by Ralph Murphy was called Night Plane from Chungking.
 * In 1944 Hollywood director Robert Wise undertook a project for RKO Radio Pictures titled Mademoiselle Fifi, based on two of Maupassant's short stories, "Boule de Suif" and the 1882 "Mademoiselle Fifi". This version starred Simone Simon as Elizabeth Bousset, who is the "little laundress" of the short story "Mademoiselle Fifi" rather than the prostitute of "Boule de Suif", and the dandified and lecherous lieutenant is played by Kurt Kreuger.
 * In 1944 the Mexican film The Escape directed by Norman Foster was set during the French Intervention in Mexico.
 * In 1945 a French film version was released as Boule de Suif, released in the US in 1947 as Angel and Sinner. This film directed by Christian-Jaque, based on a screenplay by Henri Jeanson and starring Micheline Presle and Louis Salou, also imported much of the character of the lecherous Prussian soldier from the Maupassant story "Mademoiselle Fifi".
 * In 1951 Peking Express by William Dieterle was a U.S.A remake of "Night Plane from Chungking".
 * The 1959 episode, "Lady on the Stagecoach" from the American television series Have Gun Will Travel, with Richard Boone as Paladin, was based on Boule de Suif. The half-hour episode transposed the scene from France to the Western US in 1868. In this version, the young woman was the daughter of an Apache chief. Her suitor was the leader of an outlaw gang. The outlaw is foiled in his attempt to abduct the woman by Paladin. In an added twist, the young woman forgives the outlaw leader for trying to abduct her and tells Paladin to let him go, because, she says, "He said he had respect for me."
 * In 1959 Anatole Litvak's The Journey with Deborah Kerr and Yul Brynner borrowed heavily from the plot device of a group of travellers detained by an authoritarian foreign officer with a romantic interest in an attractive passenger.
 * In July 2006, the opera The Greater Good, or The Passion of Boule de Suif opened as a part of the Glimmerglass Opera Festival in Cooperstown, New York. The opera was composed by Stephen Hartke based on a libretto by Phillip Littell and directed by David Schweizer.
 * In 2007, Dr. Kausar Mahmood translated Boule de Suif and many other stories into the Urdu language under the title of " Momi Gainde". It was published by Takhleeqat, Mozang Road,  Lahore.
 * In 2009, it was adapted and drawn by Li-An as a French-language graphic novel and released by Delcourt Press. In an interview, Li-An noted that one reason Boule de Suif was chosen for the Delcourt "Ex Libris" collection was that it had been "more or less at the base of John Ford's Stagecoach" and that the original short story offered a timeless message about human nature and how the "value of a person does not depend on social status" but rather on one's own personality.

Niclas Jensen

Niclas Christian Monberg Jensen (born 17 August 1974) is a Danish former professional football player and current football agent. He played as a left-back, and most notably won three Danish Superliga championships with F.C. Copenhagen. He played abroad for Dutch club PSV Eindhoven, English clubs Manchester City and Fulham, as well as German club Borussia Dortmund. Jensen played 62 games for the Denmark national team between 1998 and 2008, representing Denmark at the 2002 FIFA World Cup and 2004 European Championship. He was named 1995 Danish Under-21 Player of the Year.

He is the older brother of Denmark national team player Daniel Jensen.

Club career
Born in Copenhagen, Denmark, Jensen started playing football for Danish club Boldklubben 1893 (B.93). He moved on to Lyngby Boldklub in the Danish Superliga championship in 1992. He made his Lyngby debut in April 1993. Jensen played a total of 92 games and scored five goals for Lyngby in the Superliga between April 1993 and September 1996.

In the fall of 1996, Jensen was one of several Lyngby players sold by Lyngby CEO Flemming Østergaard. Jensen was one of three Lyngby players sold to Dutch team PSV Eindhoven, alongside Anders Nielsen and Dennis Rommedahl. In his first season at PSV, Jensen played three games as the club won the 1996–97 Eredivisie championship. Jensen played only five games in one and a half seasons at PSV, as he underwent two groin operations, and was used as back-up to Dutch international Arthur Numan.

In March 1998, Jensen returned to Denmark to play for F.C. Copenhagen (FCK) on a $4 1/2$-year contract, brought in by FCK's new CEO Flemming Østergaard. Jensen went on to play almost five years for F.C. Copenhagen, winning the 2000–01 Danish Superliga championship with the club. With former Lyngby teammate Thomas Rytter as right wingback, Jensen formed a wingback duo that was known as the best in the Superliga. Jensen played a total of 122 games and scored eight goals for FCK in the Superliga between April 1998 and December 2001. In January 2002, he was sold to Manchester City in the English 1st Division, in a transfer deal worth £ 550,000.

Jensen played the remaining 18 games of the season, as Manchester City won promotion to the top-flight FA Premier League in the summer 2002. Returning from the 2002 FIFA World Cup, he played 33 of Manchester City's 38 games in the 2002–03 Premiership season, as the club finished ninth in the Premier League. A high point came at home against Leeds United when Jensen scored a spectacular volley to win the game. Jensen played a total 51 league games, scoring two goals, for Manchester City.

Niclas Jensen was bought by German team Borussia Dortmund in July 2003 for a fee in the region of £750,000. He started well for Dortmund, but Jensen was eventually relegated to the role of substitute for Brazilian wingback Dedê. In his two seasons in the club, Jensen played 43 games and scored two goals for Dortmund in the Bundesliga. After two years at Dortmund, he moved back to England in July 2005, to play for Fulham in the FA Premier League. At Fulham, he joined former Lyngby teammate Claus Jensen.

In the first half of the 2005–06 season, Niclas Jensen was a Fulham regular. When the club signed a loan deal with English international defender Wayne Bridge in January 2006, Jensen was dropped from the Fulham first team after the 14 January 2006 Premiership game against Newcastle United. He would have to wait until September 2006, before he played his next Fulham game, being substituted off in a Football League Cup game against Wycombe Wanderers. With only one competitive game for Fulham in almost a year, Jensen looked to leave Fulham in January 2007. It was rumoured the solution would be a move "home" to F.C. Copenhagen, and his return to FCK was published in January 2007. By waiting to move back to Denmark until January 2007, Jensen was eligible for preferential taxation rules.

In his first half season back at FCK, Jensen played 12 of 14 games, as FCK won the 2006–07 Superliga championship. In the following seasons, Jensen saw his playing time dwindling, as he became back-up for Swedish international Oscar Wendt. Jensen played seven of 33 games as FCK won the 2008–09 Superliga championship. He did not play any Superliga games in the fall of 2009, and in October 2009, Jensen decided to end his playing career, in order to pursue a career as a football agent. Niclas Jensen played a total of 213 games and scored 10 goals for FCK in all competitions combined.

International career
While at B.93, Jensen made his debut for the Denmark under-17 national teams in July 1990, and he played three matches at the 1991 UEFA European Under-16 Football Championship. While playing for Lyngby, Jensen debuted for the Denmark under-21 national team in July 1994, and he won the 1995 Danish Under-21 Player of the Year award.

While at F.C. Copenhagen, he was called up for the senior Denmark national team under national team coach Bo Johansson. Jensen debuted in a friendly match against the Czech Republic in August 1998. Following his debut, Jensen would have to wait more than two years to play his second national team game. Under new national team coach Morten Olsen, Jensen was recalled for a friendly match against Germany in November 2000.

He was selected for the Denmark national team at the 2002 FIFA World Cup, and in the progress of the tournament, he displaced Jan Heintze as Denmark's starting left wingback. In his time at Dortmund, Jensen was selected to represent Denmark at the 2004 European Championship. He played Denmark's first three matches at the tournament, before being replaced by Kasper Bøgelund for Denmark's final game before elimination.

In January 2007, having only played few games for his club team Fulham, Jensen received an ultimatum from national manager Morten Olsen to either find himself a new club or be dropped from the Denmark national team. Jensen moved to F.C. Copenhagen, and was a part of the Denmark national team until he played his last national team game in March 2008. He played a total 62 games for the Denmark national team.

Coat of arms of Egypt

The coat of arms of Egypt (شعار مصر) is known as the Republican Eagle or Egyptian Golden Eagle, is a heraldic golden eagle, facing the viewer's left (dexter). The eagle's breast is charged with an escutcheon bearing the red-white-blue bands of the flag of Egypt rotated vertically, whilst the eagle's talons hold a scroll bearing the official name of the state written in Kufic script. The earliest version of the Eagle of Saladin was that used as the flag of Saladin, the first Sultan of Egypt, whilst the modern version of the eagle was adopted during the Egyptian Revolution of 1952. Subsequently, the modern design of the eagle of Saladin was adopted as the coat of arms of numerous other states in the Arab World, such as the United Arab Republic, North Yemen, Iraq, South Yemen, the Libyan Arab Republic, and Palestine. The current eagle was modified in 1984 to its present form.

History
Eagles have for millennia been symbols of power in Egypt, appearing in innumerable devotional and political artistic representations from the Pharoanic era onwards, and used as the heraldic banners of pagan, Christian, and Muslim rulers well in to the medieval era. Chief amongst these was Saladin, who adopted an eagle as his personal standard upon his coronation as Sultan of Egypt in 1174. Subsequent Egyptian rulers, from both the Ayyubid dynasty that he founded, and the Mamluk military caste that succeeded it, would continue his use of the heraldic eagle.

Saladin's celebrated stature as the leader who recaptured Jerusalem from the Crusaders, led to the eagle that bears his name becoming associated with renewed Egyptian and Arab nationalism from the late 19th century onwards, ultimately becoming the symbol of the Egyptian Revolution of 1952. The Egyptian revolutionaries of the Free Officers Movement under Mohamed Naguib and Gamal Abdel Nasser emblazoned on the eagle's breast the green field and white crescent and stars of the old flag of the Kingdom of Egypt and Sudan, and placed the eagle in the centre of the horizontal red-white-black bands of the revolution's Arab Liberation Flag. In so doing, they incorporated all four of the Pan-Arab colours of red, white, black, and green derived from the Rashidun, Umayyad, Abbasid, and Fatimad caliphates of Medina, Damascus, Baghdad, and Cairo respectively.

In addition to being one of the four Pan-Arab colours, and the predominant colour of the old flag of monarchical Egypt and Sudan, the colour green was itself strongly associated with nationalism in Egypt, particularly due to its use on the banner of the Egyptian Revolution of 1919. As the subsequent revolution of 1952 was explicitly committed to both Egyptian and Arab nationalism, Naguib and Nasser insisted on the inclusion of green on revolutionary Egypt's coat of arms, and national flag.

When Egypt united with Syria to form the United Arab Republic in 1958, the appearance of the eagle was modified, replacing the monarchical green field and white crescent and stars on the eagle's breast with an escutcheon bearing a vertically rotated flag of the United Arab Republic with two green stars in the central white band representing the two constituent members of the union. In the eagle's talons was placed the official name of the state on a green scroll, thereby, along with the green stars, incorporating once again the colour green on the coat of arms. Whilst the eagle was replaced at the centre of the Arab Liberation Flag by the two green stars, its status as the union's coat of arms meant that it appeared on all state buildings, documents, and uniforms.

Following Egypt's membership of the Federation of Arab Republics in 1972 during the presidency of Anwar Sadat, the Eagle of Saladin was replaced entirely as Egypt's coat of arms by the Hawk of Quraish, which would also take the place of the two green stars in the centre of the national flag. In both policies and symbolism, Sadat was eager to depart from the path of his predecessor, Gamal Abdel Nasser, resulting in the adoption of a new coat of arms, and a modified flag, both of which excluded the colour green. The federation, however, was short-lived, dissolving in 1977. Sadat himself was assassinated in 1981.

In 1984, the Eagle of Saladin was restored as Egypt's coat of arms, and has remained as such since, with the eagle returned to the central white band of the national flag. The appearance of the eagle when re-adopted remained the same as the 1958 version with the exception of it being rendered entirely in gold and white, save for the escutcheon on the eagle's breast, which continues to bear the vertically rotated red-white-black bands of the national flag. Consequently, the changes to Egypt's heraldic colours by Sadat were made permanent, and the current design of Egypt's coat of arms (and national flag) does not include the colour green used in both the revolutions of 1919, and 1952.

Appearance
The Eagle of Saladin holds a scroll on which the name of the state appears in Arabic script, Gumhūriyyat Miṣr al-ʿArabiyyah ("Arab Republic of Egypt"). The eagle carries on its breast a shield with the flag's colors — but with a vertical instead of a horizontal configuration. When appearing on the national flag, the eagle is rendered entirely in gold and white. During the union with Syria in the United Arab Republic (1958–1961), and in the ten years afterwards when Egypt retained the union's official name, the two green stars of the union's flag appeared in the white band of the eagle's shield. Between 1972 and 1984, the eagle was replaced by the golden Hawk of Quraish, as part of the symbolism of the Federation of Arab Republics.

Brian Priske

Brian Priske Pedersen (born 14 May 1977) is a Danish professional football manager and former player, who is the current head coach of Eredivisie club Feyenoord. Priske played as a defender during his playing career.

He played 24 matches for the Denmark national football team from 2003 to 2007, and represented Denmark at UEFA Euro 2004.

Club career
Born in Horsens, Priske started his career for Danish club Stensballe IK, a Horsens suburb club. Still a youth, he moved to Horsens Forenede Sportsklubber (HFS), now called AC Horsens. He moved on to Aarhus Fremad in 1997 before settling at AaB in 1999. There he won the Danish Superliga championship in 1999, and captained the club at the end of his tenure. He moved to Belgian club Genk in the summer of 2003.

When he played the full match in Denmark's 4–1 win over England on 17 August 17, Priske aroused the interest of several Premiership club and he joined Portsmouth five days later for an undisclosed fee, signing a three-year deal. Priske was given a good run in the Portsmouth side by Alain Perrin, but after Perrin was sacked that November Priske was dropped by returning manager Harry Redknapp. Many Portsmouth supporters assumed that this was because of Redknapp's disdain of using players he himself had not purchased, and speculation was rife in the January transfer window that Priske would be leaving the club.

A move away from Fratton Park never materialized, however, and following Portsmouth's poor run of form and injuries to several defenders, Priske was returned to the side for match against Manchester City on 11 March. Priske was from then an ever-present as Portsmouth then went on an excellent run of form for their final 10 matches of the season, earning the club Premiership survival for another year. Since arriving from K.R.C. Genk, Priske has been a popular player amongst Portsmouth supporters. Many were originally unhappy that Priske had been frozen-out of the team with Redknapp's return, and felt justified in their valuation of the player after the impressive role he played in earning the club survival from relegation.

Priske had become a fan favourite since his arrival at Fratton Park as a result of his impressive form, but in spite of this, rumours of his departure from the south coast resurfaced during the 2006–07 pre-season. Priske revealed to the Danish media that he had been told to find a new club before the start of the next season before returning to Belgium, joining Club Brugge in August 2006. The news was met with confusion and anger among Portsmouth fans. In Bruges, Priske competed with fan favourites Olivier De Cock and Birger Maertens for a place in the starting line-up. Priske became a first team regular, and helped the team win the 2007 Belgian Cup.

In the summer of 2008, Priske returned to the Danish Superliga to play for Vejle Boldklub. He could not save the club from relegation to the Danish 1st Division in 2009, but stayed with the team. In the summer of 2010, he was loaned out to Superliga club FC Midtjylland. On 21 January 2011, he signed for Start.

International career
While at AaB, Priske made his debut for the Danish national team in February 2003. He was a part of the Danish squad at the Euro 2004, and played 14 minutes in the 0–0 group game with Italy, coming on as a substitute to replace Christian Poulsen. Following retirement and injuries in the Danish defense, Priske became a more consistent member of the national team. In the 2006 World Cup qualification stage he played 10 out of 12 matches, though Denmark did not qualify for the finals. He played one game in the UEFA Euro 2008 qualification, a 1–2 loss to Northern Ireland in November 2007, after which he was dropped from the national team.

Midtjylland
Priske served as assistant of FC Midtjylland and FC København from 2011 to 2019. When Kenneth Andersen resigned as manager of FC Midtjylland on 19 August 2019, Priske succeeded him. At first he was a caretaker manager for 11 games, until he got promoted to a head coach. In his first season as a head coach in the 2019–20 season Priske and FC Midtjylland won the Danish Championship by 14 points to second placed FC Copenhagen, despite only having half of their budget. By winning the championship, Priske and FC Midtjylland had to play three rounds of UEFA Champions League qualification matches to get to the Champions league group stages. They beat Ludogorets 1–0, Young Boys 3–0 and then on 30 September 2020 they beat Slavia Prague 4–1.

Royal Antwerp
On 29 May 2021, Priske signed a new contract for two seasons with Royal Antwerp Football Club.

Sparta Prague
On 31 May 2022, Priske was named the new head coach of AC Sparta Prague. On 23 May 2023, Sparta Prague drew 0–0 with 1. FC Slovácko to clinch their first Czech First League title in nine years. They also reached the final of the Czech cup that season. Priske became the first foreign manager to win the Czech league (excluding Slovaks Jozef Jarabinský and Jozef Chovanec). He was chosen as manager of the 2022–23 season by the League Football Association (LFA).

On 20 October 2023, Priske extended his contract with Sparta Prague until 2026. On 14 December 2023, Priske and AC Sparta Prague qualified for the knockout stages of the UEFA Europa League after beating Aris Limassol FC 3–1 and finishing second in a group also featuring Real Betis and Rangers. After advancing past Galatasaray in the knockout stages (6–4 on aggregate), they were knocked out by Liverpool in the Round of 16 (2–11 on aggregate). On 18 May 2024, Sparta Prague won 5–0 at FK Mladá Boleslav to clinch the Czech First League title for the second time in two years. Sparta also won Czech Cup. Priske was chosen as the manager of the 2023–24 season by League Football Association (LFA).

Feyenoord
On 12 June 2024, Dutch club Feyenoord announced that it had signed Priske as the club's new head coach.

Personal life
His son August Priske is also a professional footballer.

Kasper Bøgelund

Kasper Bøgelund Nielsen (born 8 October 1980) is a Danish former professional footballer who played as a right-back, notably for Dutch club PSV Eindhoven and German club Borussia Mönchengladbach. Bøgelund played 17 games for the Denmark national team, and he represented Denmark at the 2002 FIFA World Cup and 2004 European Championship.

Club career
Born in Odense, Bøgelund started playing youth football for local top-flight team Odense BK.

In March 1997, Bøgelund signed his first professional contract, when he was brought to Dutch club PSV Eindhoven by Danish manager Frank Arnesen. Starting at PSV in January 1998, he played two years in the reserves, before making his senior debut under coach Eric Gerets in March 2000. He got his breakthrough with PSV in the 2001–02 season, playing 24 league matches. In the 2002–03 season, he was a part of the PSV team which won the 2003 Eredivisie championship. Following an injury in the fall 2004, Bøgelund lost his place in the PSV starting line-up, where he was replaced by André Ooijer. The season ended with PSV winning both the 2005 Eredivisie and Dutch Cup trophies.

In the summer 2005, he moved on to play for Borussia Mönchengladbach in the German Bundesliga. On 27 August 2005, Bøgelund scored a goal against Schalke 04 which was awarded "Tor des Jahres (Goal of the Year)" in January 2006 by German television network ARD. Mönchengladbach were relegated in 2007, but Bøgelund stayed with the club in the 2. Bundesliga.

Bøgelund moved on in the summer 2008, returning to Denmark to play defending Danish Superliga champions Aalborg Boldspilklub (AaB). He competed in the 2008–09 UEFA Champions League with AaB.

International career
While at Odense, Bøgelund captained various Danish youth national teams, and he won the 1996 Danish Under-17 Player of the Year award.

After his PSV breakthrough, he was called up for the Denmark national team in February 2002, by national manager Morten Olsen. He was a part of the Danish squad at the 2002 FIFA World Cup, and came on as a substitute in two of Denmark's four games at the tournament. He was selected to represent Denmark at the 2004 European Championship, where he again started as a substitute. In Denmark's third match of the tournament, he came on for Niclas Jensen at half-time, and eventually replaced Jensen in the starting line-up for Denmark's final game before elimination.

Following an injury in the fall 2004, Bøgelund lost his place in the Danish national team. He re-entered the national team for one match in August 2007, while playing for Mönchengladbach, and another two in the fall 2008, while playing for AaB.

Europa Point

Europa Point (Spanish and Llanito: Punta de Europa or Punta Europa), is the southernmost point of Gibraltar. Although not the southernmost point of the Iberian Peninsula, Europa Point defines the boundary between the Straits of Gibraltar in the Atlantic Ocean, and the Alboran Sea within the Mediterranean. At the end of the Rock of Gibraltar, the area is flat and occupied by such features as a playing field and a few buildings. On a clear day, views of North Africa can be seen across the Strait of Gibraltar including Ceuta and the Rif Mountains of Morocco; as well as the Bay of Gibraltar and the Spanish towns along its shores. It is reached from the old town by Europa Road.

Overview
There are five notable buildings, Harding's Battery, the Ibrahim-al-Ibrahim Mosque, the Roman Catholic Shrine of Our Lady of Europe, the Europa Point Lighthouse and the Nun's Well. Europa Point is also the location of Gibraltar's only dedicated cricket oval where the Gibraltar national cricket team play and since 2013 Europa Point has been the location of the Sikorski Memorial.

Europa Point is linked with the Eastern side of the Rock, including Sandy Bay and Catalan Bay, via Dudley Ward Tunnel. The tunnel re-opened in 2010 after eight years closure following a fatal rockfall.

The Government of Gibraltar spent £4.4 million on refurbishing Europa Point in 2011 and it was opened by the then Chief Minister of Gibraltar Peter Caruana. In 2013 an original RML 12.5 inch 38 ton gun was mounted on a custom made replica carriage at Hardings's Battery and the memorial to General Wladislaw Sikorski was relocated here from Sir Herbert Miles Road.

Harding's Battery
Europa has been the site of Spanish and Moorish fortifications as well as those constructed by the British which added to the cliffs which were part of Gibraltar's natural defences. Additions included walls, the scarping of the rocks to remove foot and handholds and a large number of batteries supported by a local barracks. Today, Harding's Battery is central to the land at the end of the point. Built in the 19th century, this battery shows the scale of guns that could fire 800 pound projectiles over a foot in diameter over to the other side of the Straits of Gibraltar. The Europa Sunken Magazine that contained this ammunition is now a visitor centre.

Lighthouse

The Europa Point Lighthouse was built by Governor Sir Alexander Woodford between 1838 and 1841. It was fully automated in February 1994 and its loom can be seen over a distance of 27 km. It is the southernmost lighthouse for which Trinity House is responsible, and the only one outside the British Isles.

Gibraltarians refer to it as "la farola" when conversing in Llanito. The Gibraltar Amateur Radio operators transmit from the area of the lighthouse.

Ibrahim-al-Ibrahim Mosque
The mosque, also known as the King Fahd bin Abdulaziz al-Saud Mosque or the Mosque of the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques, was a gift from King Fahd of Saudi Arabia and took two years to build at a cost of around £5 million. It was officially inaugurated on 8 August 1997. The mosque complex also contains a school, library, and lecture hall. It is the only purpose-built mosque in Gibraltar to serve the Muslims in the territory who number over 1,000.

Shrine of Our Lady of Europe

On 20 August 1462, on St. Bernard of Clairvaux's feastday, the Spaniards under Don Rodrigo Ponce de León, recaptured Gibraltar from the Moors. They found a little mosque at Europa Point and converted it into a Christian shrine in honour of Our Lady as Patroness of Europe, with devout intention of consecrating to God, through Mary, the whole continent, from a place of prayer and worship at its southernmost point.

They built a large chapel at right angles to the mosque's east wall and the whole area became the Shrine of Our Lady of Europe. A statue of the Virgin and Child was installed in this shrine. The statue was quite small, only .6 m in height, carved in wood and polychromed in royal red, blue and gold. The Virgin was seated in a simple chair, with the Child Jesus on her lap. Both were crowned and the Virgin held in her right hand a sceptre with three flowers denoting Love, Truth and Justice. The shrine prospered in fame and popularity, for well over two centuries. Ships passing through the Strait saluted Our Lady as they passed Europa Point and mariners often came ashore with gifts to the shrine. Provisions were made by them for a constant supply of oil so that a light could be kept burning not only in front of the image but also in the tower.

In 1979 Pope John Paul II officially approved the title of Our Lady of Europe as Patroness of Gibraltar, and subsequently, the shrine was restored.

Nun's Well
Nun's Well is an old underground water store opposite the end of the Keightley Way Tunnel. The water was used in the nineteenth century to make beer. In 1988 the buildings were repaired in order that it could be used by visitors to Gibraltar.

InCD

InCD is a packet writing software developed by Nero AG for Microsoft Windows.

InCD allows optical discs to be used in a similar manner to a floppy disk. The user can drag and drop files to and from the disk using Windows Explorer, or open and save files on the disk directly from application programs.

It supports rewritable media (CD-RW, DVD+RW, DVD-RW, DVD-RAM, CD-MRW and DVD+MRW), and from InCD 5.5 on also writing to write-once media CD-R, DVD+R, DVD-R. Current version 6.6.5100 is free and provides Windows XP functionality similar to Live File System in Windows Vista and Windows 7.

InCD formats media, and writes to Universal Disk Format. Systems which do not support UDF (such as Windows 98) will only present a HTML page (stored on the disk, outside the UDF part), explaining the problem and linking to a free UDF reader software.

InCD Reader
InCD 5 Reader is a program that allows users to read discs written in MRW format on systems that do not support MRW as well as discs written in a UDF format that are not natively supported by your operating system. Since January 2007 InCD 5 Reader includes support for SecurDisc: with InCD 5 Reader installed, a user can access the protected content of a SecurDisc disc on a drive that does not necessarily support this technology. The user is then given the possibility to provide the content encryption password, verify the digital signature of the disc, etc.

Problems
Old and hardware incompatible versions of InCD can cause the Windows XP "Reboot on Shutdown" problem similar to those quoted with Roxio Easy CD Creator.

InCD is not compatible with the addon for writing CD's that's installed by Windows Media Player 7.x.

Wallace B. Smith

Wallace Bunnell Smith (July 29, 1929 – September 22, 2023) was an American who was Prophet-President of the Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (RLDS) (Community of Christ), from April 5, 1978, through April 15, 1996. The son of W. Wallace Smith, he was designated as his father’s successor in 1976 and ordained church president in 1978, when his father retired to emeritus status. Wallace B. Smith was a great-grandson of Joseph Smith (founder of the Latter Day Saint movement), and was a practicing ophthalmologist in the Independence, Missouri, area before accepting ordination to RLDS leadership.

As president, Smith authorized construction of the church’s temple in Independence, Missouri, which occurred from 1990 to 1994. His presidency also promoted a church conference vote on April 5, 1984, which approved ordination of women to priesthood offices: The first ordination took place on November 17, 1985. Smith is credited with being one of the first church leaders to formally propose a name-change for the church, at a Joint Council retreat in 1994. At the subsequent World Conference in 1996, the proposed name change (to "Community of Christ" from "Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints") was not approved by a majority vote, but conference approval did take place during the April 2000 World Conference, four years after Smith's retirement as the church's prophet-president.

On September 19, 1995, Smith announced he was retiring as prophet, seer and revelator of the church, and designated W. Grant McMurray as his successor. Smith formally retired on April 15, 1996, at which time his successor McMurray was ordained in a ceremony at the RLDS Auditorium. Smith was designated "President Emeritus," as his father likewise had been designated in 1978 upon ordination of his son.

Wallace B. Smith died on September 22, 2023, at the age of 94.

Replaceable fair use Image:New_tragedies.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:New_tragedies.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information.

Dtaw, could you please provide source information for the image you uploaded Image:Seton blockade.jpg? Otherwise people are likely to doubt that it really is in the public domain. It would help too if you could put a date when the blockade occured and the photo was taken. Cheers, Fawcett5 18:10, 18 October 2005 (UTC)

Photos
Nearly every photo that I post on Wiki was taken by me. Some exceptions may be PD logos. But photos are mine. And now they are everyones. Enjoy!

Seton Portage
Saw your note on the discussion page for Seton Portage; I think we know each other - I lived in the valley in 1996, working for the band (computer guy, worked with the karate club) and remember your place.

I wasn't in the valley at the time of the "Seton Portage Incident" but followed it closely from down here on the Lower Mainland. What I remember is that the dogs, truncheons etc weren't used in the actual arrests, but at the baseball diamond/community hall where non-blockading natives confronted the group of squad cars carrying the arrested elders and children to Lillooet (as they claimed). What I saw in that, knowing the valley, was there was NO WAY the RCMP were going to march on foot as escort to the squad cars over Mission Pass and down the dusty road to Lillooet. There was no reason the arrested protestors couldn't have been taken out by lake, rail or chopper, so the march towards Shalalth from Seton Portage was a deliberate provocation; I seem to remember something about orders all being given in French that day, too, which puts a light on the case of that francophone Mountie who just got busted in Lillooet for being overenthusiastic with his taser.

Other things I remember - Bill Van der Zalm visiting a day or two before and gladhanding everybody - and his silence when the shit hit the fan. Also the efforts of the BC media to collaborate, even hush up the affair. Forced to write articles on it because of BCTV's airing of the videotape from the baseball diamond, the Province claimed there were only 31 officers, the Sun claimed there were 40 - it took the Seattle papers to publish the correct number of 63.

Not sure how to compile all that into the article; but since you live there it's your bailiwick. I hope you like the historical material I added on the Portage and also on Shalalth and the Douglas Road and such; check 'em out.

And re the band population being 160; I'm pretty sure the band population is more like 700, with about 500 of that in the valley. Maybe the 160 you mean is the native population in the Portage?

PS say hi to Edith Lovey for me, and also Ian Boyd who's taken up residence there since I left; he's an old good-bud of mine from Whistler (Mike Cleven's my name).

Skookum1 21:31, 3 November 2005 (UTC)

 * Sorry about the population error. I didn't recall the actual number so I used the number from the reference article. If you know the actual number, please update. I changed the number to 500+, which is probably closer as you suggest.Dtaw2001 20:34, 4 November 2005 (UTC)

Wagner and Bayreuth
Lately I have been adding content and photos to articles related to Richard Wagner and the Bayreuth Festival. I hope you like them.Dtaw2001 12:22, 8 November 2005 (UTC)

 * Wanted to say that I saw your additions to the Bayreuth Festival Article and they looks very good. I wonder if it might be worth adding something about the movie that was made about the festival (see my mention in the Wolfgang Wagner article).   At any event, solid work.  Dottore So 19:41, 10 November 2005 (UTC)

 * Added the documentary reference to the bibliography. Also added new content on modern directors related to Bayreuth under the heading The Wagner Werkstatt. New articles added include Harry Kupfer, Jean-Pierre Ponnelle, Georges Wakhevitch, and Wieland Wagner. The Ponnelle article is fairly complete, but the others are just stubs. Dtaw2001 23:43, 11 November 2005 (UTC)

 * Hello. Would it be possible that you give the source of the image of Winifred and Siegfried Wagner please? It seems to be a scan, did you scan it in a magazine, a book? Can you also add the name of thez author? Thank you! I'd like to move it to commons to use it in the French Wikipedia. Best. notafish }<';> 01:49, 28 December 2005 (UTC)

Image Tagging Image:Quebecois flag.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Quebecois flag.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then there needs to be an argument why we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then it needs to be specified where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then one should be added. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the GFDL-self tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Fair use, use a tag such as or one of the other tags listed at Image copyright tags.

Night Girl

Night Girl (Lydda Jath) is a fictional character appearing in media published by DC Comics, primarily as a member of the Legion of Super-Heroes and Legion of Substitute Heroes in the 30th and 31st centuries. She first appeared in Adventure Comics #306 (March 1963).

Pre-Crisis
Night Girl is a native of the planet Kathoon, a world which is in perpetual darkness, heated by an internal power source. Lydda possesses superhuman strength, given to her by her scientist father, but only at night or in deep shadow. Her powers were negated by the presence of ultraviolet energy.

In pre-Zero Hour continuity, she unsuccessfully tried out for the Legion of Super-Heroes, who rejected her due to her situational and impractical abilities. After meeting fellow Legion reject Polar Boy, she became one of the founding members of the Legion of Substitute Heroes. While having powers with such a drastic limitation reduced her effectiveness as a superhero, she became quite skilled at martial arts. She had a crush on Cosmic Boy, which was her motivation for leaving Kathoon and trying out for the Legion in the first place. She alone among the Subs avoided the bumbling comedic stigma which plagued her teammates. During the Five Year Gap tales, she and Rokk married and eventually had a son, Pol (named for Cosmic Boy's fallen brother, Legionnaire Magnetic Kid) and resettled back on her homeworld as her husband reformed the Legion. In the stories of the Adult Legion, Night Girl (now Night Woman) and Cosmic Man are married and have a child.

Post-Zero Hour
In Post-Zero Hour continuity, Night Girl made two very brief appearances, first in Legionnaires #43 as she was rejected at a try-out once again and joined the Legion of Substitute Heroes once more. In a nod to the previous continuity she noted that, had she been aware Cosmic Boy was on a secret mission, she might not have even made the attempt.

She was seen in one panel in Legionnaires #49 as she and Polar Boy talked about how the Substitute Legion had a long way to go until they were ready to take on a mission.

Threeboot
Night Girl appeared trying out for Legion membership by fighting Ultra Boy. She was later made a member of the Legion Reserves.

Post-Infinite Crisis
The events of the Infinite Crisis miniseries have apparently restored a close analogue of the Pre-Crisis on Infinite Earths Legion of Super-Heroes to continuity, as seen in "The Lightning Saga" story arc in Justice League of America and Justice Society of America, and in the "Superman and the Legion of Super-Heroes" story arc in Action Comics. Night Girl is included in their number (although she was never a member of the Pre-Crisis Legion). Her relationship with Rokk Krinn never fully blossomed into a full romance, as Cosmic Boy states that he chose to sacrifice his chance at a personal life to ensure that his best friends, fellow founders Lightning Lad and Saturn Girl, could have one together.

Besides working with the Legion, Night Girl serves as one of the instructors at the Legion Academy.

Powers and abilities
Night Girl has superhuman strength and durability equivalent to that of Superboy or Mon-El, but only in darkness or deep shadow. Her powers fade immediately in the presence of direct sunlight.

Killing (or at least heavily injuring) creatures made of tangible shadow seemingly allows her to temporarily absorb their essence into herself and convert it into strength.

Since her superpowers are often unavailable, she has trained extensively and is a very capable hand-to-hand combatant.

In other media

 * Night Girl makes non-speaking cameo appearances in Legion of Super Heroes.
 * Night Girl appears in the one-shot comic Batman '66 Meets the Legion of Super-Heroes.

Talk:Setsubun

Setsubun,
i think you should update your information. Setsubun is only celebrated the day before spring. I don't think I'll be using this site ever again

yours sincerely,

not happy —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 144.137.40.158 (talk • contribs).

Not Happy:

You're quite welcome to improve this article by clicking "edit this page." Instead of complaining, contribute. Aoi 07:27, 17 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Why is this article a stub? Seems pretty complete to me. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Ensiform (talk • contribs).

I think what Not Happy might have been referring to is the fact that Setsubun is celebrated on either February 3rd or 4th, depending on whichever day happens to be the day before spring according to the Japanese lunar calendar. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 63.193.144.201 (talk • contribs).

Risshun
Usually the term refers to the Spring Setsubun, properly called Risshun (立春)

According to Japanese dictionaries, and the link below, (Spring) Setsubun is February 3 or 4, followed by Risshun on February 4 or 5. Setsubun is the day when one season changes to another, and Risshun is the first day in the spring season. In other words, Risshun is not the proper name for Spring Setsubun. http://web-jpn.org/kidsweb/calendar/february/risshun.html —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 221.190.19.66 (talk • contribs).

Sharon
I don't know if I've missed something, but who is Sharon, mentioned near the bottom of the article? It's very nice that she wants to enjoy this tradition, but is this relevant? There also seems to be no mention of kids throwing beans at people pretending to be goblins, unless the page where I heard about it is wrong: http://web-japan.org/kidsweb/cook/feature/occ_0203.html —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 168.209.97.34 (talk • contribs).

 * You refer to this.

 * "In Metuchen, N.J., Sharon Waters has thrown a Setsubun party on the first Saturday of February since 2003. The fete includes a contest to pick the toshi-otoko, who then leads the crowd in throwing soybeans from her front step as everyone yells 'fuku wa uchi, oni wa soto.' Sharon believes the holiday falls at the perfect time for a party in the dead of winter. It is her goal to put Setsubun on every American’s calendar by 2018."

 * No it isn't relevant. I've removed this. Jimp 15:41, 27 January 2007 (UTC) ... Of course, it will be relevant in 2018 if she happens to succeed. Jimp 08:19, 30 January 2007 (UTC) ... Hey, this'll be the first year she'll actually have had the party on the right day. Jimp 08:22, 30 January 2007 (UTC)

 * This is 2019 reporting back to you that, unfortunately, Sharon has failed in her quest. Setsubun is still relatively unknown in the U.S. Sorry! Mahousu (talk) 18:45, 3 February 2019 (UTC)

The NJ Party
I've been able to attend 3 of the parties in New Jersey, and I must say that these are the best Setsubun parties I've attended. I've been to several in Europe as well as one in Texas and simply find that Sharon closely follows the traditions and themes of Setsubun without all the commercialism you might find at other parties. Also, the arrival of real demon characters adds greatly to the event. I'll be sure to be back in 2010!!!

Chant Variants
"There are many variations on the famous Oni wa soto, fuku wa uchi chant. In the Nihonbashi area of Fukushima Prefecture, the chant is shortened to '鬼は外! 福は内!' (Oni wa soto! Fuku wa uchi!)."

What's the difference? 167.102.229.77 (talk) 16:30, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

 * Agreed - the romanization of this is identical...if there is a difference, could someone please elaborate? 64.81.161.45 (talk) 09:11, 3 February 2008 (UTC)

 * Not only is the romanization identical, so is the Japanese kana + kanji rendering. My 1988 edition of Shogakukan's Kokugo Dai Jiten dictionary includes the following entry for this mamemaki saying:

 * 鬼は外（そと）福（ふく）は内（うち）　節分の夜の豆まきのときに唱えることば. 福は内鬼は外.

 * So here, the 'variation' suggested is a simple swapping of the two phrases, i.e. putting the good luck first: Fuku wa uchi, oni wa soto. The entry for this alternate also notes that the fuku refers not just to good luck, but more specifically to the god of good luck, fuku no kami (福の神).

 * Anyway, specifically regarding this confusing article text, I suggest the text be changed, as clearly nothing is shortened.

 * Cheers -- Erik Anderson, Japanese-English translator, 06:01, 13 June 2008 (UTC)

Japanese article
I just wanted to point out there is an article on this on Japanese wikipedia (obviously, but here's the link). I was thinking since Japanese people are complaining as to the accuracy of the english article maybe someone could compare to the one on the Japanese Wikipedia. I had meant to put in a template for this, but the ones I found say "expand the article" and not "improve the article," and I think the article is pretty expansive. Besides the template is huge and the article would probably look better without it. Unles someone disagrees, because I don't mind. Rifter0x0000 (talk) 12:59, 28 January 2013 (UTC)
